since i have been using this as more of a journal recently anyway i figured i’d share another success/joy from today!
i did end up getting out to walk up my big hill, and it was wonderful! and saw many cool things!
i saw two bear cubs up a tree (thankfully they and Mama were on the other side of a fence in someone’s backyard), a bunny, a stoat, and two hummingbirds chasing each other as the sun set!
i even made friends with an older woman who also saw the stoat, because she had never seen one and didn’t know what it was at first. sometimes people are cool and wholesome. (also yes my first thought was Burrow’s End. my second thought was Pantelimon and yes i know in the book he settles as a pine marten not a stoat)
OH! and i saw some puffball mushrooms.
overall 10/10 chill but productive solo day ✨

EXCERPTS FROM SEBASTIAN STANS JOURNAL
EVIDENCE FOR RUSSO TRIAL
JOURNAL ENTRY SEVEN:
Today was nerve racking. They went through with the rape. I heard her ask him to stop, but didn't enter the room until she screamed for me. I felt disgusted with myself for waiting so long. I'm trying so hard not to raise suspicion, but it felt so good to punch that man's face in.
Luckily, he hadn't even gotten her pants off of her, which relieved me greatly. I kissed her and I know I'm in love with her. I didn't mean to, I really didn't, but I do. I love her.
She had gotten rid of the nose chain. I preferred her face without it. She looked beautiful like this, and I told her so. Her eyes shone when I told her and she admitted she'd hated it to. I knew she had been uncomfortable with it on day one.
I kissed her again. I would write about her lips, but I want to keep that private in my head. And besides, this is more an account on the deaths, in case I don't make it out of this alive.
That's a scary thought.
I did try not letting her know that I wanted a future with her if we got out of here. It didn't seem realistic. She's so young, only nineteen. And I'm thirty-two. Not to mention I'd have to figure this out with Margarita. And the whole of the world would hate it.
But I don't care. I don't think I'm going to ever act after this.
I can't. They'll have to get a new actor for Bucky Barnes.
I'll never be able to act again. I'll always doubt what is going on.
If we get out of this alive.
JOURNAL ENTRY EIGHT:
Tempus made Y/N play through all the games. She nearly died- twice. The fact she's still alive both electrifies me and impresses me. God, but I bet she's in so much pain.
In the last round they brought in someone who I guess her friend was in her past. Y/N didn't even look surprised her friend decided to kill her over her other friend. Y/N actually thanked her.
I was on the edge of my seat until she disarmed her friend- getting herself shot in the process.
I took her back to her room. I sewed up the wound myself. I was getting better at having a tougher stomach during these things. Luckily, the bullet only grazed her.
Tomorrow we all get to leave. I'm thinking something bad happened to Henry, or maybe the police can't find us, I don't know. Or maybe we're already surrounded but they can't get in.
Tomorrow is supposed to be the scene where the Avengers break in and save the rest of the kids. I don't know how it'll actually play out. The others aren't ready, they'll fake fight like they're supposed to do.
I keep kissing Y/N. I feel like we're both going to die. It makes me wonder about my real feelings about her. If it's because of where we are, or if I truly do like her in that way.
She does keep talking about after this place. She was talking about a YouTuber that she'd introduce his videos to me. I can't answer because I don't know about after. I think she picked up on it too because she went quiet after that and then went to sleep immediately after I gave her the pain meds.
I don't want to play with her feelings. I really don't. Not after all of this. But I don't know how to not mess with her feelings when I don't know mine.
Or if we'll even be alive by tomorrow night.
JOURNAL ENTRY NINE:
I don't know where Y/N is. The others came today and she killed Tempus. Tempus had killed everyone but her and her three friends. She was going to kill Y/N, but Y/N didn't let that happen.
Y/N really had no idea who I was before this. I could see recognition in her eyes once the others came in, the other actors. I saw the hurt there too and also betrayal.
I wanted to go to her side, but she turned the gun on me. I hated seeing her cry. She looked broken and hurt. Told me to stay the hell away form her.
I think I now realize my feelings were legit. Those couple words from her felt like a stab wound to the heart.
She continued speaking, and her words told me that she thought I thought all of it was fake. That her cut off pinky wasn't enough proof that this was all real. I wanted to tell her I believed it was real. That I did think it was real. That I knew it was real.
She accused me of playing with her feelings while I let children die around us. And fuck, I knew she was right.
I called for the Russo brothers, trying to pretend her words hadn't hurt. They came, they admitted to letting Tempus take over for money. There was almost a billion dollars they were going to get paid for this game.
Then Y/N got the others out of there. She looked at me and I could barely hold her eyes because it hurt so much to see the betrayal in her eyes. She threw the gun at my feet and I can still hear the words in my head. 'It was real to me. Fuck you Stan.'
I wanted to tell her it was real to me too. I didn't want her to spit my last name out at me like it was poison. I had really liked my name falling from her lips.
Now, I'm sitting on the bus that had brought the other actors in, writing this. Downey, Evans, and Hemsworth had jumped the brothers. Hiddleston and Mackie slugged them across the face until they were knocked out.
We had to spend another couple of hours there with the police. They never brought back Y/N or the other girls. I knew we were in the middle of Death Valley, California. If they ran the wrong way. . .
They promised to put out searches for the girls. I hope they find them. Even if Y/N never wants to even look at me again, as long as she's okay and alive, that's all I care about right now.
The others tried speaking to me. Some of them are still trying to speak to me. Johansson can't shut up, trying to be sympathetic about everything I had to go through. But I was treated fine. I'm not the one dead. I'm not the one with my pinky cut off. I'm not the one that was almost raped. But they're treating me like the victim.
Well, Downey, Cumberbatch, and Hiddleston aren't. Downey has been on the phone for ages. I don't know who he's calling, but he's angry.
Evans got me a phone so I could call Margarita. Still haven't. Can't bring myself to.
God, please bring Y/N in safely. Please.

What if...? Duskwood Chapter 7
Chapter 6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
*Macie POV*
I hug Henry as I caress him lovingly. I'm thinking about what to prepare for the hacker to eat tomorrow. That he wants to see me again. Not because I told him I'd go, but also because he wants me to keep him company even though he doesn't want to admit it the way I'd like to hear. But I like him anyway.    "It's nice to meet someone like him..." I whisper, smiling "He makes me feel good and it's nice..."     I lay on the bed closing my eyes.
Henry bites my hair, waking me up. The phone is ringing. I hadn't noticed. Lian…    "Hello…?" I answer her, along with a yawn.    "Did I wake you up?"    "Yeah..."    "Perfect, because I wanted to ask you for a favor." Lian's cheerful voice lets me know that there is good news. Well, for her ", Susy is going to come with Ashley and since Brian isn't here, I don't feel like seeing my sister being so affectionate with her girlfriend."     Her words are said so fast that I can't process it.    "What?"    "I don't want to be surrounded by so much love, keep me company, please, I envy them! I would love Brian to be there! But it's still going to take him time to get home... "    "It's just that I can't stay today," I answered, sitting down on the bed "I was going to eat with-     I stay silent. I almost said hacker. I sigh. It's clearly my fault for waking me up like this.    "With who? Have you been and you have not told me? You have a date?! Why didn't you tell me?!"     I put the phone away with a groan. I don't want to be surrounded by happy couples either, but I'm sorry I can't stay, Ashley is my friend, I met her thanks to my cousin and Susy is Lian's stepsister —but they preferred to call themselves sisters—, she's also like my little sister. But I already had plans.    “He's just a guy from the urbanization, but is nothing serious."    "Excuse me? And now I find out? Why don’t you tell me before?"    "Because it's nothing new coming from a disillusioned person like me."    "You know we're going to gossip about this, right?"     I end up getting out of bed and open the closet, looking for something nice. Too bad the best shirt I had is still at the dry cleaner.    "It's nothing, we're just friends, besides, and I don't think he's really interested" I say that last thing telling the truth. I'm just a means to get to Hannah, that's very clear to me.    "Which means Aiden still has a chance."    "Lian..."    "Please, you're adorable if you stand next to each other, like two figurines on a wedding cake."     I laugh imagining it.    "If I see the opportunity, then I'll accept even one date."    "It will come, I know it."    "Why? Why are you clairvoyant? I pull out a see-through blouse and a tank top. Now that I think about it, why do I look for something nice if I always wear a sweatshirt?"    "Because lately you've been very happy and that's a very good sign" I imagine her with her excited smile ", you radiate positivity, I've seen you talking to Aiden with complicity… Very soon you're going to tell me that you're going out in secret so they don't talk about it in secret the job."     And then I'm a fan of the movies when she's riding one on her head.    "Well Lian, good luck with the couple, I'm going to take advantage of the morning before going to eat."    "And tell me everything! I have to know!"    "Yes, yes…" I sigh going to the bathroom, so I can take a shower "Goodbye Lian."    "Good luck Macie! It sure is your day!"     I laugh again and hang up. Poor Lian… I feel bad lying her, she is my best friend. I've never lied her like this before, I hope when we rescue Hannah I can tell her everything.
If Mister Hacker will let me. 
 I look at the building with determination. This time I won't make noise when going up the stairs, I'm wearing light-soled slippers, a cloth bag with food so as not to make noise, and pants that don't make noise when rubbing. I think that with this I will catch him off guard and he will give me the thumbs up.
I carefully climb the stairs one at a time, without rushing. I don't even get to hear my footsteps.
He opens the door, and I'm surprised he's not wearing his sweatshirt, but a white T-shirt. Okay, I have to focus, this is not… This is not good. I feel like I'm blushing.    "You still need practice." he tells me, smiling, crossing his arms almost like a teacher talking to a student.    "This time I did it right." I complained, entering the house. "Wait…"     I look at the window and start to think what if he actually looked through it to see if I got here? It would be the best thing if he knew that way when I arrive. Does that mean that he keeps watch near the building? Why would he do that?    "Something wrong?" He asks me worried "Have you seen anything strange?"    "No, nothing strange."     I put the food on the counter and since he's not wearing his sweatshirt, I take off mine, feeling more comfortable. I see the hacker leaning on the table, looking at me. Look away quickly, red.    "I want to apologize," he tells me without looking at me "I couldn't help but overhear the conversation between you and your friend."     I frown, annoyed, moving closer to him, now crossing my arms myself.  "One thing for you to look at the group's chats and calls and a very different thing from my private life," I answered annoyed. "You shouldn’t do that."    "I didn't want to, something made the notice pop up" he looks at me sincerely, he's not lying ", I'll fix it as soon as I can, don't worry."    "A notice?"    "When they call you or receive a message," he explains calmly, "I'm always alert to any kind of situation for our investigation."    "I understand but… Does that imply listening to the entire conversation? I mean-"    "No, I haven't heard it all, I've removed it right away to keep your privacy."     He makes a small movement looking to the side. He's lying.    << Oh, no… Did he hear that I would give Aiden a chance? Will he seriously believe it? It's better not to comment on it, I already made it clear that he was just a co-worker, thinking about it more would only make him believe it's true. >>    "Okay, I believe you," I nod, walking away again to go to the kitchen "I have something good prepared today!"    "Another one?" He lets out a small laugh, coming closer to me.     When I am close to him, I observe him better. The body is athletic, although it doesn't look like an athlete... I manage to see something dark peeking out of the neck of the shirt. Is it... Is it a tattoo? I have to control myself, it's enough that I see him without his sweatshirt, I can't imagine him without his T-shirt and start thinking what kind of tattoo he has. Luckily today is a day to keep him company, today I'm not the hard-working Macie. I’m the friendly Macie.    "By the way," I look up to see his face after speaking to me, "I was able to reconstruct part of the picture." Labor day.... I think we should look at it in more detail.     Hmm… Maybe we could do it before lunch so we can have the day to ourselves and get to know each other a bit better.    "I think the same thing." I replied, leaving the bag to go to my chair.    "Good."     I see Mister Hacker approaching the table quickly. 
When he sits down, he starts moving the mouse rapidly and turns a monitor towards me. I look at the prescription, reading 'SSRI'.    "My first question is, Why did she do that?"     Why save a prescription? I end up throwing them away, although luckily I haven't gotten sick in a long time. I can only think of one thing.    "I have an idea." I reply.    "For real?" He arches an eyebrow, curious about my answer.    "She wanted to show it to someone." I answered, trying to remember where I had seen that dug name.    "I get it." He looks at his screen, focused. "I think the next thing we should do is find out what drug was prescribed with prescription.” He places his hands under his chin, making a thoughtful sound in his throat. "SSRI, Does that tell you anything? "    "Mmmh… I'm not sure."    "I think we should get some help from the almighty internet."    Of course! Now I remember what it sounded like! On one of the recording sets, they discussed this medication along with others. I smile proudly. I'm not going to let Mister Hacker because he's smarter than me get the credit.    "I’ll find out before you, wanna bet" I ask him, without erasing the smile.     Mister Hacker arches an eyebrow, crossing his arms as he leans against the table.    "You do know who you are talking to, right?"     He too smiles proudly, his eyes glowing. It seems that I have touched his ego.    "Are you chickening out?"     He lets out a sarcastic laugh and leans back, raising his head as if he wants to look over his shoulder at me, wanting to make me feel inferior. Ha! I'm not going to let myself feel that way for him, I know he can't with me.    "Five euros. You up for it?" He asks me with a joking voice.    "I'll raise the stakes to seven." I dare say, I just hope my memory doesn't fail me.     He laughs, settling better in the chair. He cracks his knuckles and without wiping the smile, he says:    "Great. Let’s go."     His voice sounds deep, I even notice that he enjoys it. It is very imposing to see him, I must calm down and not let myself be defeated, no matter how attractive he looks, I’m capable of not letting myself go at this moment. 
I pretend to search as I watch him type fast, and before he's done, it's my turn to talk.    "I know what it is." I see him look up from the screen, looking at me. "It's an antidepressant."     He looks at the screen and then at me.    "That is correct." I notice that he seems a little annoyed, although I think he's faking it because of his smile, it doesn't match his tone of voice. "You actually won, congratulations.” He makes a little hand gesture like he's taking off a hat.    “You have been a great opponent.” I curtsey as if wearing a dress, laughing.    "I am honored to present you with the promised money." He stands up from his chair and I turn as he passes behind me.     I lean on the chair looking at his body until he disappears down the small hallway. I let out a sigh that if Lian heard me, she would tell me it's a sigh of love and I don't blame her. He is the most interesting man I have ever seen and the one I have the most fun with. It terrifies me that after we rescue Hannah he'll completely forget about me and that I exist. Or that at some point he simply uses me and abandons me.
I grip the chair tightly, with that fear in my body. No, he wasn't like that. I didn't see him like that. Something was wrong with him and I don't think it's because he's a nasty guy, there's something else, but I don't want to bother him by asking him, I have a feeling he would get angry.
He comes back and I keep from drooling at the sight of him. He leave the coins in my hand. Yes, he was serious about giving me money.    "Here you go." he tells me, smiling.     I feel his fingers giving me the cold coins. My skin crawls and I bite my lip when I feel him. I wish he would hold my hand and not let go, I don't ask for much, I don't even think of something quick, I just want more from him, since he trusts me more. It is that electricity that I have felt when he has touched me. I look up and see how he looks at me, is he also thinking the same thing? He still has his hand in mine, pulling it away slowly. He's having a hard time breathing and I can see how nervous he is. 
Finally he pulls his hand away and walks by my side almost noticing how his hand passes near my hair. I inhale when noticing the smell of his soap of his. I swallow and feel normal, fixing my hair.    “We should… We should talk about this drug. “     I nod and switch to professional mode.
I'm trying to analyze the new discovery, this… Why would she have a box of antidepressants?    "Was Hannah suffering from depression?" I ask, putting my hand to my chin as I think.    "I don't know."     The hacker's voice makes me look at him. I can see the confusion in his eyes as he stares at the screen. I feel a pang in my chest seeing him like that, since I've known him, I've never seen him act like this.    "No…" he puts a hand to his head, with a broken voice "None of this make sense."     He gets up from the table and begins to walk around the small dining room. I get up and stop him with my hand gently grabbing his arm. He looks at me and I can see eyes with a strange shine. Is he going to cry?    "I am going to contact you again later, ok?” I see that he runs into the room and I'm still worried about him.    “Is everything ok?”    "Yes," he puts on the sweatshirt, a mask, and as he leaves the room, the gloves. ”Everything is fine. ”    "I don't believe you." I stopped him, taking his hand.     All I see of him are his green eyes. His hair makes his white skin cast such a shadow that only the shine of eyes that want to break down to cry make them stand out.
I want to hug him. I want to be able to tell him that he can tell me what's on his mind right now.    "We'll have to talk about this later." he tells me, but without letting go.     He raises his hand to my face, like he wants to touch me. I watch as his fingers struggle and he balls his hand into a fist, lowering it.    "I have to go and research a few things." he tells me, heading for the door. "You can go home Macie, I won't be back for a long time."    "I… okay…"     He leaves the apartment first, leaving me alone. 
I grab my sweatshirt and put it on, brushing back my hair. I look at the food and I don't even think about what a waste it was to make it, but about whether he will be able to eat it when I saw his state. I worry if he's going to be okay alone right now. What if he needs me? I see that he has a small notebook and I write a note, placing it on the whiteboard. 
I open the door slowly, peeking before stepping inside. The atmosphere is now cold.    "I hope you're okay…" I mutter, thinking of the hacker as I look at the computer.
   *Jake POV*
I had to leave the apartment because I couldn't think clearly with the new information. I trust Macie too much to leave her alone. Or so I want to think. I mix among the people, trying to relax. Noise. The noise will silence my thoughts. 
Shit… I've left her worried about my attitude. But I can't tell her the truth of why I've gotten this way. Hannah… She… No, it cannot be…
  I don't return to the apartment until the afternoon. I was able to get into the alley well, blending in with the crowd.
When I arrive, breathing more calmly. When I enter, I see that everything is in its place, nothing seems to be missing. I did well to trust her. 
I notice that there is a piece of paper with a magnet on the whiteboard. I lower my mask and go over to read it. A sad smile escapes me when reading the note. 'Eat what you can, don't push yourself too hard and I hope you recover. Macie' I feel a lazy laugh escape me as I read her words. It's funny that she signed the note when she's the only one here. I close my eyes trying to calm down. A warm sensation runs through my body, I want to imagine that her note is her hugging me after what happened, wanting to comfort me. Maybe I shouldn't have left me.
I have to get to work, I still have to try to get the number of Poke. Anything to sit still thinking about the situation with Hannah or Macie.    "Forgive me for worrying you..."

read on ao3
In the blink of an eye, she was up and racing around her apartment. Her mental health was like a teeter-totter, and right now she was on her way to the top. Mania was creeping in; changing from just anxiety-induced butterflied to the feeling that she could jump off a building and survive.
That was never a good time. All she wanted was to either spend all her money, fuck a stranger or get high as shit. It made her legs jumpy and her ears ring and she couldn’t take it anymore. It was all too much.
She threw on a sweater and jeans, her hair was up in a butterfly clip and she hastily threw on her fanny pack full of everything she needed as well as a big coat, and she then left her apartment. She got to the stairs before realizing she actually needed to lock the door.
Her hands shook and she tried to slide the key into the lock, dropping them as her neighbour rushed out of the room and startled her. “Sorry,” she heard him say.
She picked up her keys and turned to look at him, “can you help me? I can’t seem to stop shaking,” she asked as she held her keys towards him.
“yes, sure,” he rushed the words out as he walked towards her, only looking at the keys, never in her eyes. But that was okay, she was never a big fan of eye contact.
He placed her keys back in her hand and took a step back, “are you alright?” he asked.
“No,” she said honestly. “I’m going to find an NA meeting.”
“Do you have one in the area? I haven’t seen you around before?”
She shook her head, surprised that he was also an addict, he didn’t look like he’s ever even smoked weed.
“No, I moved in only a little while ago on a whim, but I think it’s time I got some support,” she said as they started to walk down the hallway together. “I’m Y/N, by the way.”
“Spencer,” he smiled softly. “I’m going to a meeting right now, actually, if you’d like to come? I won’t exactly be anonymous to you, but it’s a good one to go to if you just need one to fill the void until you find your preferred group.”
“Yes, that’s exactly what I need.” She smiled at him this time as he held the door open for her. “So, have you lived around here for long?”
“For about a few years now.”
“The building is good then? I was a little hesitant but I needed to get away,” she said, this time holding the door for them to leave the building and turn down the street towards where she knew the subway was.
The moon should be out, she looked up but only sees buildings. It was the one thing she missed the most about not being in the country; seeing the stars and feeling like there was a reason to it all.
“Are you running from someone?” He asks as they start the walk down to the meeting.
“Myself,” she said softly. “I’m on disability and don’t drive and I lived in the middle of nowhere with my parents, well into my 20’s, and I needed a change so my parents surprised me by saving up money for a few month's rent and told me to follow my heart.”
“And you picked Virginia?”
“I stayed in Virginia, just moved into the city. I watch a lot of murder documentaries in my free time, I thought being near Quantico would introduce me to some interesting people, but I have yet to meet anyone from the FBI at all.”
She laughed to herself at how dumb it was that she wanted to meet a profiler like Holden Ford from Mindhunter, “either they are all very good at keeping their jobs secret or Virginia is a very large and densely populated area with a low percentage of FBI agents.”
“Interesting.”
“What?”
“How long have you lived here?” he asked, slowing as he walked so he could look at her.
“2 months.”
“It took you two months to meet the FBI agent across the hall from you.”
“You’re kidding?” she said, stopping on the sidewalk abruptly. “I knew that apartment was calling me for a reason.”
“Don’t take this the wrong way, but, are you really just coincidentally my neighbour or are you secretly spying on me because you have an evil plan to kill me and my co-workers?” he's completely serious, it's almost scary.
“No offence, Spence, but for a supposed FBI agent that’s a dumb question to ask,” she said, pointing finger guns at him, “you don’t think I’ll give up my cover that easily? Do you?”
He points a finger gun back at her, “technically, I’m a doctor.”
The two of them narrow their eyes at each other, slowly walking in a circle, still facing each other with their make-believe guns trying to hold back smirks. She lowered her ‘weapon’ first. “It’s okay, doctor, don’t worry. I’m not a spy just an idiot with an imagination.”
He giggled softly, “I’ve never felt this comfortable with someone this fast.”
“Well, you are with criminals a lot, right? That would be alarming if you bonded with them,” she said, bumping her shoulder into his as they walked. “But I feel the same. I actually haven’t talked to someone in person in forever.”
“No?”
“I do most of my work and socializing online,” She felt embarrassed, but in today’s day and age, it wasn’t that weird. “I’m not very good outside or with people.”
“If it wasn’t for my job, I don’t think I would go outside very often either. My co-workers are my only friends, they’re more like my family actually.”
“That’s so wonderful to hear, found family is very important,” her smile disappeared as she thought about how alone she was. “Um, can I ask what it is you do at the FBI?”
“Behavioural Analysis.”
“Holy shit," she gasps, knowing way too much about that unit thanks to fucking Netflix, "that’s what the BSU became right? Do you work with the really fucked up shit?” she asked softly.
He laughed, “oh yeah, I really do.”
“Do you share a lot at NA?”
“Kinda, I tend to ramble about facts when I’m nervous so sometimes my short talk becomes more like a ted talk and what was supposed to be just me saying I haven’t relapsed on Dilaudid becomes a lesson on how the human brain works,” he explained, rambling just like he said he would.
She nodded along as he spoke, “funny, that was also my drug of choice.”
“Liquid or oral?”
“Oral. I was given it after I had my appendix out when I was 17. They get you started real young now, big pharma has its hand in everyone's pocket,” she presses her lips together awkwardly, “it was rough.”
He hummed in agreement. “I was held captive by an unsub with multiple personalities. One personality drugged me till I died and the other one brought me back.”
“Spencer, Holy fuck?” she stopped and stared at him so incredibly concerned for someone who just met him. She reached out and grabbed him by the shoulder and looked him in the eyes, “I know I barely know you, but if you need someone to talk I’m literally always across the hall.”
“Thank you,” he smiled softly as he looked back into her eyes. “The meeting is right there across the street, do you want a coffee first? The place beside it is amazing.”
She nodded and he took her hand, looking both ways before J-walking across the street with her to buy her a coffee and a snack. Maybe that would help her stop shaking, he looked like he worried about her and she wasn't used to that at all.
He didn’t talk at this meeting, he sat in the chair beside the group leader, she sat down across from him in the circle so she could focus. When the floor was opened up to new members, Y/N stood at the first chance she got.
“Hi I’m Y/N,” she said, to which she was welcomed by the crowd.
“I’m new to the city and looking for a new home group, not sure if I’ll stay here because I know Spencer outside of here but I really just needed to come today.”
She takes a deep breath as she thinks of how to start it, opting to just explain it and let the rant go where it may.
“I’ve never lived alone before and it’s incredibly hard to occupy my time without drugs. I still smoke weed to help me sleep at night but my addiction is with Dilaudid and then Benadryl a little after having surgery in high school. I don’t know if it’s my trauma, my disability or my Autism, maybe it’s my OCD, I really don’t know, but I just feel so useless and alone and boring and lonely, the drugs used to help but they don’t anymore and I really just don’t want to feel this way anymore.”
They all looked like they understood, small smiles grew all around the circle as she took a lookout at the crowd, “Thank you for letting me get that out.”
Everyone clapped as she sat back down and wiped a tear off her cheek.
The meeting ended shortly after that, Spencer walked from his seat in the circle to where she was sitting, reaching a hand out to help her to her feet. “For the record, I think you’re funny, smart, kind and pretty. And you don’t have to be alone anymore if you don’t want to be.”
She slapped her hand into his and stood up with purpose, “Did we just become best friends?”
“I believe we did.”
The walk home was much like the walk there. They traded facts, they flirted, they laughed, she pushed him into a pole at one point, by accident as they laughed. The two of them stopping to sit at a bus bench, laughing so hard she felt like she would pee her pants right then and there.
By the time they were back on their floor, it was well after midnight. “I don’t think I’ll be able to go back to meetings with you.”
“Oh, why?” he looked disappointed.
“Isn’t rule 13 that you’re not supposed to want to sleep with your group members when you’re healing?”
“Wanting to and doing it are two very different things,” he corrected her as he waited at his own door.
She smirked, “you’re right. Still don’t think I can go back with you, however.”
“I’ll probably have a case tomorrow, they normally take me out of town for at least a week, but when I get back, can I see you?” he asked lightly.
“Knock on my door when you get back,” she said before standing on her tiptoes to kiss him on the cheek. “See you.”
“Bye.”
They waved from their doors before departing, excited by something that felt better than drugs.
120 hours later there was a light knock at her door, she knows exactly how long it’s been because she’s been counting and looking out the door at every noise for the whole time he’s been gone. Waiting for him like a wife whose husband went off to war, not knowing when their next correspondence would be.
“Coming,” she called, stopping to fluff her hair and straighten her glasses before she opened the door.
“Spencer!”
“Hi,” he said softly.
She took a moment to look him over, a little in shock at what she saw. He was in a plain t-shirt and track pants, he had not one, but two black eyes, bandages on his brow bone and scrapes all along his arms.
“Are you okay?”
“You should see the other guy,” he giggled softly, rolling his eyes.
“Come in, let’s sit you down.” She worried, taking him by the elbow and helping him inside.
“I’m fine, really, I’m used to this.”
“Well I’m not,” she reminded him with a nervous pout, “am I allowed to ask about it or is it classified stuff?”
He sat on the couch and patted a seat beside himself so she would join him. He rested his arm against the back of the chair so that she could slide in beside him.
“Did you hear about the child abduction in Tampa?”
“Yeah? The two boys?”
“I was trying to talk the unsub down and he dropped the gun but he grabbed me as I turned him around and punched me in the face and we fell into the ditch and I luckily managed to flip over him and get his hands behind his back and cuffed faster than I ever have before.”
“You’re amazing,” she whispered.
He laughed, “if I really was, I would have waited for backup before talking to the guy.”
“I’ve always wanted to help other people get justice but not being able to go to school makes it hard to get a job doing anything meaningful,” she whispered, ashamed of the fact she wasn’t successful like most people her age.
“Our technical analyst was hired because she was an amazing hacker, they will hire anyone who is valuable.” He shrugs and watches her face light up at the idea.
“You know what, we have meetings all this week unless there’s an emergency, if you want I can show you around the office?” he offered. “It’s not illegal for you to pass by what I’m working on and notice something I missed.”
“Spencer, I don’t even know your last name and you’re inviting me to your government job? When just last week you asked, not so jokingly, if I was a secret agent trying to kill you and that you’ve been kidnapped before?”
“Doctor Spencer Reid, and what can I say?” he said shyly, “I’m trying to find excuses to see you smile all the time.”
She placed her hand on his cheek, the tips of her fingers lightly resting on his purple and yellow bruised eyes. She leaned in slowly and kissed him on the lips, so gently as if she’s afraid he’ll break or turn into a frog… he was too good to be true.
“You can see me whenever you want, Doctor Spencer Reid…”
He kissed her again, letting his hands roam her back and she trailed her free hand down his chest. She pulled back slightly to throw a leg over him carefully and sit in his lap. Holding his face in her hands now, she peppered kisses over his bruised face.
She stopped to look at him, still holding his face in her hands as his hands now rested on her hips. “I really like you, Spencer.”
“Really?”
She looks at him carefully, analyzing his response and seeing the hurt that rested deep inside of him, “I take it you’re like me?”
“What does that mean?”
“You try to not get too involved with people because no one has ever shown you true genuine interest or love, and you never think you’ll find it anyway so you push away all small acts of kindness, thinking it’s friendly because then you can’t get your hope up, just to have that person drop them?” she explained herself in a whisper.
He nodded, “you get it.”
She kissed his lips again, and then over his cheek and up to his ear, “I do.”
He looked extra sad when she pulled away, she just held his face gently as she mirrored his puppy dog eyes. Communicating with their eyes, she knew he was okay and he didn’t want to talk about it anymore, so she smiled.
“Want to watch a movie?” She asks softly.
He nods, looking behind her to see she doesn’t have a tv in the living room. “How?”
“In my room, the TV is on my dresser if you don’t mind sitting in my bed?”
He shakes his head in a simple no, picking her up and taking her to her room. He knew where it was purely because her apartment was just his but backwards. She laughs, holding onto him tight as she rests her head on his shoulder.
He sets her down gently, watching her move up to the headboard and wait for him. They got under the blankets and she found the remote in the sheet before she cuddled into him.
“You’re really cuddly,” she complimented him as he wrapped an arm around her and held her close. He kissed the top of her head as a thank you.
“I think I’m going to end up falling in love with you, Spencer Reid,” she whispers the words, afraid of them more than his response.
“I beat you to it,” he whispers right back.
She shoots up, turning to look at him with surprise. “How?”
He looks at her like she grew two heads, “what do you mean how?”
“How did you fall in love with me? You don’t even know me?” She’s so confused, no one has ever loved her before and it’s a lot to take in.
“Y/N…” his face drops, his heart physically breaks in front of her. “I don’t know you, you're right. Not all of you, at least. I’m sure you have your hidden doors and locked cupboards but from the outside, I see you’re so beautiful, you’re radiant… your mind is lovely. You’re so kind, you’re so brave, you’re everything I wish I could be as charismatically as you are.”
She’s just swallowing over and over as she shakes her head and breathes through her nose, processing it. She’s breathing deeply then, staring off and she feels like she’s having a new kind of panic attack. A happier one, somehow?
“I don’t like myself, but if you like me I guess I must be pretty nice,” she smiles, accepting his praise and believing him. “Yeah. Thank you, Spencer.”
He smiles then, it’s cute and press-lipped and she swears he almost has dimples. His eyes are like honey and his lips are like roses. She leans in, kissing him and reaching a hand back to cup the nape of his neck.
He doesn’t know it, but he’s the first person she’s kissed in a few years. They’re soft, peck after peck as they hold each other softly, eyes open as they watch each other experience the happiness of finding someone good, finally.
“I uh, I wanted to tell you I’m almost exactly everything you described yourself as in the meeting,” he whispers against her lips, the air touching her skin gently as she absorbs the words.
“What part? My diagnosis or my self-hatred?” She smiles, okay with either really.
“Almost both, I’m pretty hard to be around.”
She shakes her head, “I invited you in for a movie, not a pity party. You can tell me everything you hate right now and then we should just share the good parts okay? Brag about yourself. Tell me what you’re proud of.”
She was really serious, keeping a stern look on her face as she spoke. He nodded, “I’m anxious all the time, I’m always worried because I’ve never had anyone to worry about me. I don’t know how to be a real person really, all I do is drink coffee and solve crimes and I barely sleep. And the only time I was relaxed and okay is when I was on drugs.”
She nodded, “it fucking sucks, doesn’t it? Like why did we get stuck like this, I don't care about peaking in high school but didn’t we deserve some kind of love and support? I’ve never understood if souls and shit are real, why did mine pick this terrible meat suit and awful traumatic path?”
She’s crying because she’s angry and because she’s never said it to anyone before. He cries because she understands. She truly knows.
“I love you,” he announces. “Just because of that.”

Bibliophile | Xiaojun x Reader
Genre: fluff, smut
Word count: 2,3k
Warnings: mature themes
Author: SIN
Two literature master students decide to make their steamy romance troupe debates a reality.
——————————————————————————
Your heels clicked against the marble floors as you ran over to the university library, hoping the evening rain wouldn’t worsen when you crossed the open courtyard.
Most of the students were either heading back to their dorm rooms or messing around in the common areas, while the only thing that rang in your head was to not be late for your part-time job at the restricted section of the library.
At first you had no damn clue why they needed someone to work there, especially since some of the books were even restricted to lecturers. But thanks to your century old university and their obsession with keeping their sacred books in pristine condition, all they needed was a literature masters student to help out from time to time.
You entered the library and greeted the woman at the front desk before she buzzed you in through to the door that led upstairs to the restricted area.
You quickly jogged up the stares and swung open the door only to be greeted by the only other person working around here, Xiao Dejun.
“You’re late again” his lips curled into a smile as he pushed up his gold framed glasses and inspected a dust covered book.
“Yeah the rain was just-“
“Crazy ?” Dejun peered up and pursed his lips, knowing that every excuse you had always ended in the same word.
“Yeah crazy” you half chuckled and removed your burgundy coat, making your way over to sign in the shift card.
All you knew about Dejun was that he finished his masters and was offered a lecture position at the university but decided to take up this job instead. He was very reserved and once told you that he craved the utter peacefulness of the restricted area, where he was usually either on his own or with you.
“I’m halfway on my thesis now” you said casually as you started fixing the binding of a physics book from the 70s.
“Oh?” Dejun raised his eyebrow and pulled out a chair next to you to tend to his own book repair, “I’m sure you’re glad it’s almost over right?”
You squinted your eyes and sighed, burying your head in your hands as that familiar migraine began to set in. “I’m....stuck” you groaned and peered up at Dejun, “I decided to dissect the romance genre of literature and honestly most of it is hot garbage.”
Dejun let out a laugh and you admired how his dark eyebrows knitted together, making his face look quite animated.
“What books have you studied if you don’t mind me asking ?” Dejun asked, his curious eyes met with yours as he shifted closer in his chair.
“Everything from Shakespeare to Nicolas Sparks, I just hate them all” you pouted and slumped back in your chair, moving the half bound book aside,
“Don’t get me wrong, I chose romance because I love it you know ? I just don’t think that those ‘classics’ do it any justice.”
Dejun nodded at your words and shrugged, “I agree with you, not a fan of that forbidden romance and rich girl poor man stuff either.”
“Right ?” Your eyes lit up and Dejun grinned at your passionate attitude. He’d always found you cute. Every so often he had the chance to work with you on a shift we’re always his best days. He’d listen to you rant about your professors, the music you hated on the radio, or the fact that someone stole your favourite parking spot.
“So....” Dejun folded his arms, “how would you change it ?”
“Change it?” You quirked a brow.
“What’s your perfect romance troupe ?” Dejun smiled softly and his soft brown eyes drew you in and made you feel warm, safe.
“Well for starters I think intimacy should come first and then the characters learn how to love each other as they develop their relationship” you explained, getting up from your chair and began pacing the small room,
“I don’t mind the cliche of they grab the same book or vinyl, I just prefer that instead of 7 chapters of them thinking about that moment they just take the leap right there.”
Dejun pondered on your words for a bit and also got to his feet, leaning against the table as he watched you pace back and forth.
“Would it work for people who somewhat knew each other before hand though ? A friend ? A colleague ?” Dejun quizzed and you nodded quickly,
“Yeah if there’s no prior feelings or hookups then why not ?”
“I guess we can’t test it then since we like each other huh ?” Dejun smirked returning to his seat innocently as you stopped abruptly and quickly tried to process what he had just said.
“I....we...don’t like each other ?” You stammered while ignoring the fact that your heart was racing against your chest.
Dejun chuckled as he carefully inspected one of the pages of his book, “the funny part is that you’re practically experiencing your ideal romance troupe and contradicting yourself by not owning up to the fact that we do in fact...like each other.”
Your mind was racing on every evening that you’ve spent with Dejun up until today. First day it’s true you both did a double take on each other and you found him extremely attractive. Day seven the two of you reached for the only hard cover copy left of Pride and Prejudice and spent the whole night critiquing the book until you lost track of time. Day seventeen you were packing books on the top shelf and as you descended down the steel steps you lost your balance and fell right into his arms.
You were literally living a goddamn romance troupe without even knowing it.
“By your words y/n, we need to skip a few steps now shouldn’t we ?” Dejuns eyes were still on his book, but he knew damn well that your eyes were on him.
“You’re right Dejun” you finally said and folded your arms across your chest.
Dejun turned his head to face you and narrowed his eyes, “I’m supposed to be the one making the move ? What happened to a change of scenery ? Uh women empowerment?”
You grabbed his hand and headed to the back of the room where the roof slightly slanted and the window panels were covered with water droplets as the night sky drew in. You neatened your blue plaid skirt and leaned against the old wood of a work station desk. Dejun cocked his head as you bit down on your lip, not knowing how to proceed to the next step.
“Why here ?” Dejun raised an eyebrow, removing his glasses and tucked them in the top pocket of his white buttoned down.
“I don’t know the setting is....pretty, also when we first met you were sitting at this desk reading the last book a literature master student would be reading” you stifled a laughter.
“Hey Harry Potter is my childhood” Dejun groaned, cutely rolling his eyes, something he did quite often and you would pester him to the point of seeing that reaction.
“Dejun,” you placed your hand on his cheek and his attention was focused on you, those soft brown eyes bore into yours as he took a step closer.
You felt the butterflies in your stomach as he softly wrapped his hand around the small of your back and placed the other on the back of your head. You finally leaned in and he did the same meeting your lips, for the first time and sighed. The kiss was soft, the two you just melted in the instant connection, basking in the feeling before continuing to deepen the kiss.
You wrapped your arms around his neck and pulled him closer until your bodies were pressed against each other, fitting each other’s silhouettes perfectly. Dejun slipped his hands down to your thighs and picked you up and placed you on the desk, not breaking the kiss as he slipped in between your legs.
“I’m afraid I’m going to want more than this” you sighed into the kiss, unable to remove your hands from his toned body as you felt the closeness of him between your legs making you feel aroused.
“Come back to my place” Dejun whispered as he began attacking your neck with kisses and played with the hem of your skirt.
You can’t remember if you said yes or just nodded but you were now in Dejuns car on his way to his place. You enjoyed the passionate kiss he shared with you at the stop street and the occasional squeeze of your thigh when he would make turn into a new road.
The rain had begun pelting down and thankfully you were already pulling into his apartment lot before it became really hazy. Dejun turned to his backseat and realized he had left his umbrella back at the library and sighed,
“Running hand in hand in the pouring rain troupe ?” He held out his hand and you chuckled, “always been on my bucket list anyway.”
The two of you ran for about half a minute in the pouring rain but it was enough to completely drench you from your head down to your shoes. Dejun quickly punched in the code of his door and pulled you inside, already covering you in kisses as his blonde hair stuck to his forehead.
It was one item of clothing after another as the trail of clothes led down to his bedroom, where he had you in just your lacy nude coloured two piece set while he was slowly ridding himself of his pants.
You fell into his bed as you watched him slowly pull his leather belt from its hoops and his black slacks finally fell to the ground,
“You are the most beautiful person I’ve ever met you know that ?” Dejun groaned as his eyes scanned over your body and he hovered over you.
“I could say the same about you Xiao Dejun” you mused and pulled him in for another hot passionate kiss. His warm body settled on yours and you wrapped your legs around his waist, wanting him closer even though it wasn’t even possible at this point.
Dejun unclipped your bra and moved his lips down to your breasts, squeezing one in his hand while licking and nipping at the other. You arched your back wanting more but also not wanting to rush him.
“Really want this to last much longer but I’m at my wits end right now” you moaned and Dejun chuckled as he peppered kisses all the way back up to your mouth.
“We have tonight, tomorrow, the next day and the day after that” he smirked against your lips before tugging on your bottom lip with his teeth.
Distracted by the stinging sensation from your lip you shivered at Dejuns icy fingers that was now hooked in the waistband of your panties, slowly pulling them down.
He watched as you squirmed beneath him. Watched how your eyes closed and how you sucked in your bottom lip, awaiting his next move.
You mewled when you felt the cool air hit your arousal and Dejun rubbed slow circles on your clit before pushing two fingers inside you, making you moan his name for the first time that night.
His fingers moved slowly but roughly while his lips softly pecked your hips, abdomen and the very top of your mound.
He was so gentle with you but his movements were still dominating, the mixture was absolutely intoxicating. You pulled him up missing the taste of his lips and before pressing his mouth on yours he caressed your cheek,
“Let me know if it’s too much okay?” He whispered against your lips and you nodded not knowing what you were in for.
Dejun locked your arms above your head and used his free hand to remove his boxers before entering you, already finding a rhythm to his thrusts. You threw your head back and moaned his name yet again as he slammed in and out of you, his grunts and your whimpers filling the bedroom.
His hand stayed locked on your wrists as he used his other hand to knead your breast, giving you multiple sensations at once. You almost hated the fact that you were close to your peak and it hadn’t been more than five minutes of him inside you.
“God I really don’t wanna cum right now” you whined as he still pounded mercilessly inside you.
“Good thing I’m not gonna let you” Dejun murmured and just as you thought your orgasm had reached, he pulled out of you and rolled onto his back,
“Get on top.”
You listened to his instructions but before sitting back on his member you gave him a few pumps, finally able to see him squirm under your touch this time round. Dejun gave you a small smack on your butt, and you finally abided to his request and sat on top of him, the new position already bringing you back to where you started.
Dejun sat up to meet your thrusts as you rode him, and you found your hand tangled in his messy locks as the two of you practically screwed the hell out of each other. The kiss this time was filled with lust, filled with lip biting and exchanging of saliva as you felt your orgasm fast approaching and noticed Dejun’s pace was slowing down too,
“cum for me baby” Dejun mused as he used the last of energy to give you a few hard thrusts until you finally came undone and he followed quickly after.
It took about two minutes of trying to catch your breath before you finally rolled on the bed next to him and wiped the beads of sweat from your forehead.
“Yeah this...this was definitely missing in some of those novels” you turned to Dejun who had a smile spread across his face.
He pulled the covers over your bodies and pressed his lips to your forehead and cheek,
“Should we write our own novel then ?”
“Yeah, yeah we should” you smiled, closing your eyes feeling at peace as his warmness enveloped you.

The Adult Trio With An S/O Who Lost Their Plushie (gender neutral terms)
Tumblr media
Contains: Crying, comfort, semi-OOC characters(?)
*cough based off of events currently happening with me*
This IS HxH, but I’m not positive if I’m gonna keep writing for this fandom (YET) so let me know what you think! Also I tried a new writing style, so tell me if that’s good as well
(F/C)-Favorite Color (F/A)-Favorite Anime
Chrollo Lucilfer
Tumblr media
Grey eyes peek open at the sound of soft sniffles and gentle shakes, your soft voice coaxing him out of sleep, “Chrollo?” he sits up, patting the space next to him for his lovely (girl/boy)friend as they sit down, Chrollo moving to wipe the tears streaming down your face, “what happened? did you get hurt?”
You shake your head, wrapping your arms around him, your arms draping over his broad shoulders, tugging him close in a sudden hug, making him pause before wrapping his arms around you, “i-i can’t find my plushie...and i can’t sleep without it...can i stay here instead? i’m so tired...” 
“The (F/C) (F/A)?”
“Mhm..”
With a sigh, and a small, sympathetic smile, he lifts the blanket, revealing his beautiful, shirtless form, only in a pair of soft pajama pants. you sneak under the blanket, snuggling against his warm body. one of your legs is draped over his hips, your arms wrap around him as one of his arms wraps around you.
Thankfully, it doesn’t take long for you both to fall asleep, thanks to the warmth from your bodies, lulling you two into a deep sleep.
Illumi Zoldyck
Tumblr media
“Illu? honey?”
The man grumbles, rolling over before speaking. his voice monotone, but still a bit groggy, “what?” he opens his eyes quickly, making you jump before looking at you. once he notices the tears he sits up, gripping your arm tightly (it didnt hurt you, it was just snug) as his hair starts to rise with it. of course you attempt to stop this as soon as possible.
“I’m not hurt! no need for bloodlust.” people found it so funny, how this darling (boy/girl) was his true love. someone as shy, and kind as you, was with a killer...no, literally, a killer. however, after knowing only a life of killing, you had showed him love. he got to experience these emotions, and he was glad it was with you.
“I...I cant find my (F/A) plushie. i can’t sleep without it!” With a grumble, the black haired male gets out of bed, stretching and walking downstairs to get some tea, you following close behind, “Illu? why are you out of be-”
“I’m going to help you look for it. if we don’t find it, you can stay in my bed, if you really want.” with a smile, you wipe the rest of your tears, giving Illumi a quick hug, his reaction immediately turning awkward as he stiffens, awkwardly patting your head, “okay...that’s enough.” you pull away, letting him finish his tea before walking around the whole mansion, even asking some of the workers on their night shifts if they had seen it.
Eventually, you both give up, “ugh. forget it...it’s gone...”
“We’ll just buy you a new one, (Y/N).”
 “Illu?”
“What now?”
“...Can you carry me? i’m tired.” with a feigned annoyed expression, he puts his arms out, letting you move between them and having you jump, your legs wrapping around his waist and his hands keeping you up by your ass, both of his hands intertwined as he walks over to his room.
You end up falling asleep on the way there, in the tall man’s arms. he’ll never admit it, but he thinks it’s so adorable, your head laying on his shoulder, steady breaths fanning over his neck, your body finally beginning to relax. the long walk back makes him tired as well, so he goes to his bed where he lays you down,  locks the door (he doesnt trust anybody else seeing him in such a vulnerable state) and lays down next to you, pulling you close and falling asleep with you curled in his arms.
Hisoka Morow
Tumblr media
You lay directly on top of the large man, tracing small shapes over his chest until he wakes up, inhaling softly and stretching, opening his eyes slowly as he exhales, “(Y/N), dear? why are you awake at this time? and...why are you crying?”
He sits up, keeping you in his lap as he wipes a few tears streaming down your face, “i lost the (F/C) (F/A) plush you got me...i need it to help me sleep... can i stay here?”
With a small smile, he pulls you into a gentle hug, “of course, my love. would you prefer if we looked for it, or would you want me to help you tomorrow?” a small yawn from your lips has him pressing soft kisses on your forehead, stroking your hair lovingly as you drift off to sleep in his arms, slumping against his body as your steady breaths fan over his neck, “goodnight, my prince(ss).”

Rumours - Yandere!Fuckboi!Lucas X Reader
Tumblr media
Yandere AU
Genre: Mature, Horror, Angst, Smut (Masturbation, this one is pretty sexual)
Pairing: Lucas X Reader
Words: 14,505
Warnings: This is a Yandere story, it will contain themes such as stalking, violence, obsession, possessive natures, and just general overall creepiness and swearing. You have been warned.
A/n: Heyyo! After months of nothing I present... something!!! I know it’s not exactly the ficmas I promised, but here’s one of the fics I had planned for it! I’m pretty happy with the way this one turned out, he’s definitely not as intense as some of my other yanderes on my blog, but I like it. This one definitely turned out longer than I expected, so I really hope you all enjoy! As always, feedback is greatly appreciated!
There are always three rules he tells them before they fuck.
Number one: no leaving marks on his skin. He hates having to try and cover them up in front of you, or try and explain that they don’t mean anything to him. You never believe him, and the last thing he wants to do is to push you away any further than you already seem. Besides, the only one that he wants to mark his skin like that is you.
Number two: never say his name. It sounds wrong coming off of anyone else’s lips that aren’t yours in these situations. He usually pictures you the whole time anyways, and their voice just takes the fun out of everything. Besides, it only manages to pull him back to the reality that it’s not you with him. Yet.
Number three: do not fake anything. He doesn’t need them to pretend to be enjoying things in order to stroke his ego. No. He wants to know that he’s actually good at what he’s doing. That way he can do, and be, his best when he’s finally able to be with you. Knowing how to properly please someone and recognize their reactions is the first step, otherwise it would become annoying with how many times people would attempt to exaggerate their noises and reactions. He needs to know that when he finally gets to be with you after all of these others, that it will leave you breathless, desperate, and craving his touch.
Currently, he finds himself in one of these situations. One hand tangled in the hair of some girl who’s name he can’t remember as he fucks her from behind. He can feel her meeting his every thrust, and he can hear the whimpers she lets out into the pillow that her face is pressed into. He can tell she’ll never forget this, as he’s been the best fuck she’s had, she told him so herself.
For a fleeting moment, he allows himself to close his eyes. Picturing the same thing he does every time he finds himself in these situations. He envisions that you’re with him right now, and not some random girl he picked up at a party that night. He almost lets a groan slip passed his lips, but he bites them in order to contain it. 
He always makes sure to keep as quiet as he can during these times, as he believes that you’re the only one deserving of hearing his sounds. Occasionally, a few do slip past his lips if he allows himself to fantasize about you for too long, but he’s gotten better at containing them around others for the time being.
With a loud cry of his name, he can feel her coming around him.
Immediately, he’s ripped out of his fantasy with you, stopping any and all of his movements. It’s deadly quiet in the room now, the only sounds coming from their deep breaths.
“What did I tell you?” His is voice low, full of frustration as he gets denied right before his own release.
“Fuck-“ she pants, “I’m sorry, I don’t know wh-“
He cuts her off, “get out.”
“What-“ her eyes widen as she pushes herself up onto her hands, feeling him pull out of her from behind.
“I said, get out!” His brows are furrowed in distaste as his voice echoes around the room.
Hurriedly, she scrambles off of the bed and grabs her clothes. She can tell he’s fuming as he stands there watching her flee after throwing her clothes on, dick still painfully hard and throbbing for release.
Hearing the click of his front door falling shut, he lets out a sigh. Running his fingers through his hair, Lucas tilts his head back and lets out a frustrated ‘fuck’. He was this close to finishing, and she had to go and break one of his rules, and while he was thinking of you, no less.
Stomping through his apartment, he quickly locks the front door, ensuring he has complete privacy, while also making sure that she can’t come storming back in. Not that she would, but he’d rather be safe. He’s had a few others do that even after they’ve broken his rules and he’s kicked them out, and he doesn’t want a repeat of those times.
Making it back to his room, he walks immediately into his adjacent bathroom to have a shower. He wants to wash this girl’s touch off of him, and besides, he does still want to finish.
Turning the water on, he waits for it to heat up slightly, and grabs a small bottle from underneath his sink. Stepping into the shower once the water is a decent temperature, he places the bottle he’s grabbed to the side, letting out another sigh as he allows the water to fall over his back. Running his fingers through his now wet hair, he lets out another sigh.
The first thing he does is grab the bottle he’s brought into the shower with him, opening it and allowing its familiar floral scent to fill his nostrils. It’s the same soap that you use, and he knows it’ll be able to comfort him right now.
He got lucky. One day in class he overheard you talking to your friend, Jordan, about this new soap you got from the store. Ever since, he’s noticed that that’s the scent you use, or at least, that’s what it smells like each time he manages to get close enough to you that he can faintly breath it in. Thus, the next time he went out, he made sure to grab a bottle. This way, he could use the soap for times like these, when he wants to be wrapped in your scent and feel a comfort only you can provide for him. It isn’t much, but it’s something.
How he wishes it could be you instead. You, who managed to captivate him the moment he first laid eyes upon you in first year. He managed to trip over his own two feet, making a fool of himself in front of you. However, instead of laughing like everyone else did, you came over to make sure he was okay. Granted, you did let out a few chuckles when he clumsily introduced himself, but he heard you call him cute, which only caused his ears to turn a vibrant shade of red in embarrassment.
If only Eunji hadn’t chosen that moment to come up to him and ask him about the night they shared over the weekend, and if anything was going to come out of it. He’s pretty sure he looked like a deer in headlights as she stood there looking expectantly at him, you shuffling from foot to foot awkwardly the whole while.
Unfortunately, your friend soon came running up to you to steer you clear of him. Jordan knew all too well about his building reputation around campus, having had another friend who had experienced it themselves. He had to sit through class overhearing Jordan tell you how bad he is, and how he’ll just fuck you and leave you hanging, because that’s what he does. Little did any of you know that he’d come to realize that he’d never do that to you. No, never you.
Since that day, he's tried to get closer to you to ask you out on a proper date, but circumstances never worked out in his favour. You would either be dragged away by Jordan, or whichever friend you’re with, or he would be interrupted again by someone else wanting to be more than just a one night stand to him. The worst few times were when he finally did manage to talk to you without interruption, only for you to point out the hickies that had been left on his neck. That caused him to start the no marking rule shortly after that incident.
Clenching his jaw, he lets the water wash the soap from his skin. This was supposed to be relaxing, but instead, thinking about all of his failed attempts at asking you out is only serving to make him more tense. He needs to distract himself, and fast.
Now, instead of focussing on the negative memories he has with you, he focusses on the positives. Like how just the other day, you met his gaze, only for your eyes to widen with the cutest expression on your face. Or how he overheard your laughter in the food court yesterday, your expression screaming nothing but pure joy. At that, he manages to crack a small smile, his heart warming in his chest at the thought of him being able to make you laugh and smile like that for him someday.
Fuck, how he just wants to kiss you. So badly he wishes you were here with him now, so he could press you up against the wall and make you see stars. He wants to know what your skin feels like beneath his fingertips, what your hands feel like gripping his hair, but especially, he wants to know what his name sounds like as you scream it for all to hear in ecstasy, letting everyone know that you’re his, and that only he can make you feel this good.
His thoughts, along with the smell of you that’s surrounding him during this time is enough to send him over the edge. He comes with a low moan of your name, eyes closed in bliss as he allows himself to indulge in his fantasies. At least he manages to come with a smile on his face, though he would have preferred opening his eyes to see you, instead of the grimy tiles of his shower once more.
Cleaning himself up quickly, he turns off the water. Grabbing a towel, he dries himself off before wrapping it around his waist and heading back out to his room. Checking his phone, he notices that it’s just past three in the morning. 
Letting out another sigh as he pulls on some loose sweats, he hops back into bed. He’ll worry about changing the sheets tomorrow. After all, he does have work later, and he’s already been late the past two times in a row.
Later that day, he groggily makes his way into work. He just manages to make it on time so as not to get reamed out by his manager again, greeting his coworkers with a small wave. Although it isn’t much working at the coffee place on campus, he enjoys it, especially when he gets to work with his best friend, Jongin.
“Late night?” Jongin quirks a knowing eyebrow at Lucas as they both tie their aprons around their waists.
“You know it,” Lucas jokes, smirk evident on his face.
“Damn, another one?” Jongin teases.
“Had to kick her out,” Lucas shrugs.
“You really are heartless, man,” Jongin shakes his head, grin still on his lips as he moves over to take orders.
Lucas says nothing as he moves over to start making drinks for the customers. He notices a few regulars sitting in their usual places inside, and soon he’s busy preparing himself for the rush they usually get just after classes get let out in a few minutes. A few people come in just to see him, and everyone at the café knows it. He has this unique charisma with the clientele, especially the ladies, whom he enjoys casually flirting with. He guesses that’s also what adds on to his reputation, but he just thinks of it as practice for when he gets to finally make you shy from his flirtations towards you. To him, they all mean nothing when compared to you.
Occasionally, during rush, Lucas will loose himself in his work, humming along lowly to whatever song is playing as he calls out name after name. There have been a few times where people will purposely graze his hand as he hands them their drink, but he’s gotten used to it by now that he pays no mind. Again, it means nothing to him, though he wishes people would stop, and notice that he’s not interested.
He’s just finished making two iced caramel macchiatos when he finally takes notice of the name on the cups. Sure enough, looking up, he meets gazes with Jordan, though you’re nowhere in immediate sight. He notices their eyes narrow at him as he hands them the two drinks, thanking him curtly. Normally wherever Jordan is, you’re not far behind.
Eyes follow Jordan out of the café, Lucas now distracted as he attempts to find you. Sure enough, you’re standing just outside the door, waiting for Jordan as they approach you with your drinks. The smile he sees you wear after grabbing your drink makes his heart warm, for there’s a part of him that knows that you smiled because of him. 
A small cry of pain escapes his lips as he drops the cup he’s holding. He clutches his now scalding hand in his free one, gritting his teeth as he moves to pick up the dropped cup. In his dazed state, he managed to pour steamed milk onto his hand, too distracted by watching you just through the window.
“Woah, Lucas, you okay, man?” His one coworker asks him, helping him clean up the mess.
“I’m good,” he gets out, tossing the now ruined drink into the garbage.
His coworker only shoots him another concerned glance before they get back to work, nothing but the faint sting of the burn on his hand serving as a reminder that you were smiling because of him only minutes ago. If only he could see you again, but you’re gone as soon as he looks back over to the spot which you were standing in before he spilt the drink.
The rest of his shift passes by slowly, the fatigue from the previous night catching up to him the more he has to deal with each rush that comes in. All he wants is to see you again, and spend more time with you, but he can’t.
The more he thinks about it, the more he realizes that Jordan probably told you to wait outside for them while they got your drinks. Jordan is purposely making you avoid him, so he wouldn’t put it past them to do something like that. If only he would be so lucky as to serve you himself.
His eyes widen slightly as realization crosses his features. He now knows a drink order that you like. In all his months working at the café, you’ve rarely come in while he’s been working, so he’s never been able to flirt with you while making you a drink. Now that he knows you like iced caramel macchiatos, he can bring you some during class. Maybe that will show you how serious he is about you. Either way, he knows that the next time the two of you have class together, he’s bringing you a drink. Maybe he’ll even slip you his number if he gets a chance. Perhaps he’ll even write it on the cup.
A small grin tugs at the corner of his lips as he continues working. This plan is perfect. It most definitely can’t go wrong! He’ll show you, even in the most subtle a way as this, that he can take care of you. He can, and will, always provide for you anything you may ever want or need.
That evening once he gets home, he sets to cleaning his apartment. He’s decided that before anything else, he’s going to make his apartment look and smell nice. Who knows what might happen in the coming weeks, and if by chance you happen upon his home while it’s a mess, he’s be so embarrassed. All he wants to do is impress you, even in the most basic of ways.
He falls asleep that night to fresh sheets on his bad, clutching his pillow tightly to his chest and picturing that it’s you that he’s holding. He indulges in his fantasies as he tends to do with you, and imagines running his fingers through your hair as you fall asleep in his arms. In every sense, he wants you: to love, to cherish, to hold. Nothing could ever change that. He only wishes you were actually here.
Two days later, he prepares himself for what he’s about to do. Taking a deep breath, he clutches the cool drink tighter in his hand, allowing the feeling to ground him as he walks up to where you’re currently sitting before class starts with Jordan beside you.
“Hey, (Y/n),” he greets with a lopsided grin, “how’d you make out with the document analysis that was due yesterday?”
“Not too bad, I think,” you smile politely back at him as Jordan squeezes your thigh lightly underneath the table. “How’d you find it?”
He knows you’re probably just being polite at this point, since a few people have turned to stare, wanting to know if you’re going to fall for his ‘game’ or not. He nearly rolls his eyes at the thought. With you, it’s never a game, and it never would be. Jordan, on the other hand, might beg to differ.
“Glad I just got it done on time,” he shrugs casually. 
Truth be told, he’s actually a fairly decent student, and this is his favourite class for two reasons. One, you’re in it, and he can sit close by to you for two hours every week. Two, he actually likes the material of the course. In fact, it’s one of his highest grades right now.
“Is there something we can help you with, Wong?” Jordan’s voice cuts in before he can get in another word.
“Actually, yeah,” Lucas smirks, eyes shining as he notices Jordan’s eyes shift suspiciously to the drink he’s been holding in his hand. Looking directly into your eyes, his expression softens into a smile, “I got this for you.”
Your own eyes widen as he places the coffee on the table beside your notes. Your heart warms at the gesture, but your words seem stuck in your throat for the time being. However, the longer you go just looking at Lucas with those wide eyes, the less confident he becomes.
Did he do the right thing? What if you don’t actually like this drink? Why do you keep staring at him with those eyes? Fuck, if his heart wasn’t racing before, it sure is hammering away in his chest now.
The whole time, questions race through your head as well. Jordan has told you countless times that he doesn’t care for anyone but himself, refusing to do anything for anyone. Jordan has you convinced that Lucas isn’t the kind of guy to just do something out of the goodness of his heart, for they’re sure he doesn’t have one. However, now, you’re not so sure if everything that Jordan has told you about him is true. Maybe he’s not so bad of a guy after all. Maybe he’s just misunderstood.
“I mean, uh-“ he stammers before your voice pulls him back to earth.
“Thanks, Lucas, that’s really sweet of you,” you smile at him, deciding to give him the benefit of the doubt.
His heart skips a beat as he sees that genuine look of happiness on your face, finally directed at him. He feels as if his whole world has stopped, and it’s just the two of you now in the classroom. Nothing could pull him out of this feeling right now, and he can feel a small heat rising up his neck.
“It was nothing,” he tries to play it off cooly, and he just manages not to stutter over his words.
You’re about to say something else, until Jordan beats you to it, and he feels his momentary bliss shattering around him.
“Nice try, dickwad, but it’s not going to work,” they spit, and you watch his expression fall briefly before turning into one of annoyance. “She can’t be bought.”
Before Lucas can retaliate, the professor is walking into the classroom, preparing to begin the lecture. Instead, he ops to shoot a glare at Jordan, letting out an annoyed sigh as he moves to take his seat two rows behind the two of you. He can faintly hear the two of you arguing about him now, and he chooses to tune into that instead of whatever the professor is going to be drawling on about today.
“Jordan, I can’t believe you would say that, he’s just trying to be nice,” you scold, reaching for the drink before they smack your hand away.
“He just wants to get in your pants, (Y/n), and he’ll do whatever he can to seduce you in order to succeed,” they retort.
“I don’t know, this seemed pretty genuine to me,” you mumble as Jordan reaches for the drink instead.
“Think about it, hun,” they continue. “It’s a little creepy how not even two days ago I got us this exact drink at the school café, of which he was working at, and now he shows up to our only shared class with the same drink. Is that not suspicious to you?”
“Why can’t you just give him the benefit of the doubt,” you sigh. “Maybe he’s just trying to impress me?”
He smirks at this. You couldn’t have been more accurate if you tried.
“Well, if so, then do you think he remembered to use lactose free milk?” They counter. “If he cares that much, he should have remembered that one of the drinks was made with lactose free milk, considering he made them. It would have been a fifty-fifty chance on who would have needed that, so to be safe, if he was observant, he should have gotten it for you with that in mind.”
His expression falls. He didn’t even think of that. He was so out of it that day that he doesn’t even remember which milk he used for each. Lucas was too caught up in the thought of seeing you, and then actually catching you smiling, that he forgot all about that. Clenching his jaw, he curses himself.
“If he didn’t, it’s an honest mistake,” you say.
“I don’t know why you’re so intent on defending him, he’s not a good guy, (Y/n),” Jordan shakes their head as you frown slightly.
“I still feel bad,” you whisper. “He did get me a drink, and I don’t want it to go to waste.”
Just as you’re about to reach for it again, they smack your hand once more, “oh, no you don’t. You’ll literally die if you drink that.”
“Well, I don’t want it to go to waste,” you reiterate, frown more prominent now.
“Fine,” they sigh. “I’ll drink it then.”
“Okay,” you nod slowly, a small frown on your face as you watch as Jordan slides the cup closer to themselves.
The whole time, Lucas is fuming. Not only is he mad at himself for not remembering something as significant as making your drink properly, but he’s furious that your drink is now being consumed by Jordan. Though, he’s more upset around the circumstances that led to this, than you not actually drinking the coffee. The last thing he wants to do is be the reason for your discomfort in any situation.
He’s also upset about the fact that Jordan only seems to be pushing you away from him. From the sounds of things, you do want to give him a chance, and fuck, if the way you looked at him earlier was any indication how you felt towards him, he’d be right there to sweep you off of your feet in an instance. Maybe him and all his subtleties towards you are actually working. No matter, the next time he’ll just have to make sure to get your drink right, and make sure Jordan isn’t around to ruin things for him.
Except, he’s not expecting the rumour that arises within the next week, and once he hears Jongin telling him about it at work one day, he nearly drops his phone in the break room.
“What?” His voice comes out rushed, eyes wide as his lips part slightly in shock.
“Yeah! Apparently what’s been going around campus is that you’re trying to get in Jordan’s pants,” Jongin reiterates.
“How the fuck?” He trails off.
“I don’t know man, but rumour has it you bought them coffee last week,” Jongin shrugs.
“I didn’t buy them coffee,” he mutters, only causing Jongin to quirk a brow.
“Word on campus is that Jordan came in to the café last week, you stared at them the whole time while they left, longingly, apparently,” Jongin goes on to say, “and then showed up to your class two days later with that same drink they ordered for themselves.”
“Fuck me,” Lucas sighs. “The drink wasn’t meant for them, it was for (Y/n).”
Jongin frowns slightly until realization flashes in his eyes, “you mean that girl you’ve had a thing for since first year?”
A small nod is all the confirmation he gives.
“Welp,” Jongin stands up, clapping Lucas on the shoulder as he passes, “good luck, dude.”
Another sigh escapes Lucas’ lips as Jongin exits the break room. He’s not sure how exactly this rumour could have started, or who started it for this matter. However, it’s only going to serve as another obstacle for him to be with you. Hopefully, it doesn’t put too much of a damper on his plans.
Easier said than done.
The next two weeks is spent being conscious of his every move. He notices the way some people have been watching him around campus, especially when Jordan is around. It’s usually old flings of his, jealous that they mean nothing more to him than a one night stand. They’ll never mean anything more than a one night stand, either. During those times, he makes sure to never look their way. Only when you’re around does he dare a glance in their direction, but even then, he doesn’t hide the fact that it’s you that he’s looking at. 
Part of him hopes a new rumour will spread that it’s actually you he’s interested in. At least then there’d be some truth to it, and he would be able to use it to his advantage. He can’t count the number of times he’s pictured you confronting him about his feelings in some secluded space, only for him to confess and the two of you end up kissing in the heat of the moment. His mind always wanders further, imagining pressing you up against the wall and taking you right then and there. He wants you, badly, and he’d be more than happily claim you as his own whenever, or wherever you wanted him to.
Resting his head in his hand, he zones out to the lecture. His gaze remains transfixed on your back as his mind plays one of these scenarios in his head. Oh, how you’d grip his hair and call out his name as he thrusts into you, his fingers digging into the skin of your thighs. How he’d claim your lips, over and over again, amongst other, more intimate parts of your body.
He licks his lips, getting lost in his haze of desire for you, and what could be. So much so, that when he shifts slightly in his seat, he can feel his semi-erect cock pressing against the material of his jeans. Letting out a low breath, he attempts to calm himself down. Thank goodness the break is starting now, so he can focus on fixing his problem, and not sit through the rest of class with a hard-on. The last thing he needs, or wants for that matter, is for someone to notice.
Rubbing at his face with his hands, he lets out a deep sigh. Shifting in his seat, he angles himself in a way that no one would be able to see what’s happening to him. Thank fuck he decided to sit beside the wall today. Not to mention he’s got the perfect angle of you, two rows down, as usual.
He’s pulled out of his thoughts when he hears you let out a small squeal, successfully drawing the attention of those around you as well.
“Oh my god, Jordan, look,” you grin, smacking their arm lightly repeatedly.
“What is it? Geez,” they rub at the side of their head, “you’re gonna blow my brains out.”
“Sorry,” you reply sheepishly, before the grin is back on your face, “but look! Ten has silver hair this comeback!”
“Yeah, so?” They yawn, clearly disinterested in your rambling.
“So?” You scoff. “You know I have a thing for silver hair, it just looks so sexy. Especially on him.”
Jordan just chuckles in amusement, “I know, boo, I was just teasing you. I know you love light coloured hairstyles.”
“I do indeed,” you nod once, and that’s all the confirmation Lucas needs to start looking at hairdressers in the area to get his hair dyed.
He’s never given much thought to the colour of his hair before, always sticking with his natural hue over anything he might deem too risqué. However, he’d more than willingly make an exception just for you. If this means you seeing him in a more desirable light, he’ll do it in a heart beat. Besides, a change might do him some good.
Now, to look up this ‘Ten’ guy who has you practically drooling at your computer screen. 
A quick search of this guy’s name pulls up quite a few pictures that have a frown pulling at Lucas’ features. What does this guy have that he doesn’t? Well, except for the fact that he’s an idol, and apparently has silver hair now.
The rest of class is spent with Lucas pouting slightly while looking up facts about this Ten guy that you apparently like so much. Maybe he can alter himself to be more desirable to you through some of this guy’s behaviours. First things first, he’ll start with his hair and see how it goes from there.
He can hardly believe he’s getting jealous over some idol whom you don’t even know. Lucas knows he has more of a chance with you than this Ten guy, but he can’t help but worry. What if his plan doesn’t work, and the two of you don’t actually end up together.
Immediately, he shakes his head to clear his thought. No. He doesn’t even want to think about the possibility of you not ending up with him. He can’t see himself being happier with anyone else other than you, and he knows he can make you so happy, if you’d just let him. He’d do anything for you. Absolutely anything.
All too soon, class in ending, and he’s watching as you pack up your things before heading out of the classroom with Jordan in tow, the two of you still talking about this upcoming comeback. He makes sure to keep his distance while trailing behind the two of you, making sure he looks inconspicuous as he heads to his next class. He wants to hear as much as he can before leaving you for today, wanting to get a better gage on your interest in this Ten guy.
A sour expression resides on his face for the rest of the day. He doesn’t like the fact that this idol is getting all of you attention, and not him. Why can’t you ever focus on him?
Oh, that’s right. Jordan.
If it weren’t for that friend of yours, the two of you could have already been in a happy relationship. He huffs, now heading to the parking lot to head home after sitting through his last class of the day. Once he makes it to his car, he hops in and starts the engine, looking at his reflection in the rearview mirror. In a few day’s time, he has his hair appointment, and hopefully by then, he’ll have thought of a way to get Jordan out of your life so that he can finally have you all to himself.
The rest of the week passes by fairly normally for him, and he’s happy with the way his hair has turned out. He got it cut, too, and it feels even softer to the touch. At least, that’s what his fling from last night told him.
The stress of the week caught up to him, and he had to relieve it somehow, so he felt it best to take out his frustrations on someone else. Needless to say, he was the best they’ve ever had, and they didn’t break any of his rules. He doesn’t think he’s ever went as hard as he did last night, picturing you the whole time. He couldn’t help himself, letting the events of the week affect him more than he wanted.
Again, he ended up kicking the girl out of his apartment before she could stay the night. Usually, he won’t let them, since he doesn’t want to deal with them when he wakes up. This gives him more time to think about you, and picture you wrapped in his arms instead of someone else who might want to talk about their feelings for him or some other shit like that. That’s a huge no for him. Again, unless it was actually you.
Making it into work the next day, he sighs. Saturdays on campus can usually be pretty slow, so he’s not looking forward to working all that much. In fact, the day ends up being so slow that a few people get sent home early, but unfortunately for him, he’s stuck here until close. Even Jongin heads out early, leaving Lucas to work with two of his other coworkers he doesn’t really talk to. At least he can hang out in the break room if it gets too slow.
About an hour before close, he’s stuck behind the counter by himself for a bit while his one coworker takes out the trash and the other is on their break. He knows he can call them out if he needs them, but he doubts they’ll get a rush this late in the evening.
A small sigh escapes his lips as he hears the door to the café swing open. His back is turned to the register as he finishes grabbing down a bag of coffee beans to refill the pot for the morning. As soon as he’s closed the cupboard and turned back around, he nearly drops the bag of coffee beans in his hands.
There you stand, in one of your oversized hoodies, with a friendly smile on your face. Most importantly, you’re alone.
The two of you stare at each other for a moment, him blinking a few times in disbelief and managing to get out a measly little ‘hey’. Of which, he curses himself immediately afterwards. Is that really all he can get out when he’s finally alone in front of you?
“Hey there,” you giggle, and he swears it’s the cutest damn sound he’s ever heard, “you’ve changed your hair.”
“Uh, yeah,” he swallows, nervous all of a sudden about what you think about it.
“I like it,” you smile softly. “Looks nice.”
He freezes for a moment, nearly forgetting how to breathe as he stares at you. Changing his hair was a success after all, and he loves knowing that you like what he did for you.
“Thanks,” he smiles back, before clearing his throat, and putting the bag down on the counter. “What can I get for you?”
You start telling him your order, but he’s already started punching it in. Luckily, it goes unnoticed by you, especially since he undercharges you for the change in milk. Again, no matter how subtle, he wants you to know that he’s always looking out for you, and will provide for you whenever and wherever he can.
After you pay, you move over to the end counter where you wait for your drink to be made. He takes this opportunity to talk to you, considering it’s just you and him right now, and he doesn’t know when he’ll ever get another opportunity like this again.
“So, how’ve you been?” He asks casually as he starts preparing your drink.
“Not too bad, midterms are kicking my ass, though,” you reply, tucking your phone into your pocket. “I’m definitely way too stressed for anything right now.”
“Tell me about it,” he chuckles. “I feel like we’ve just started and we’re already halfway through the semester.”
“Right?” You voice, incredulously. “I feel like I hardly have time to relax anymore, and with our midterm that’s worth forty percent on Tuesday, I’m kinda freaking out.”
“I feel you,” he nods in agreement, now just waiting for the shot to brew to add to your drink. He has to stop himself from biting his lip. He knows a few ways to help you relax, but he doubts you’d let him try anything. Yet. “I’m sure you’ll do fine though, you’re really smart.”
You laugh slightly, “my intelligence is an illusion that hangs by a thin string attached to late night study session, and fuelled by coffee.”
He laughs at this, pouring the freshly brewed shot into the cup, “I take it that’s why you’re here so late on campus on a Saturday night?”
“Guilty,” you joke, reaching out to grab your now finished drink. “What about you? I didn’t take you for one to be working on a Saturday, let alone in the evening.”
Ever so slowly, he watches your fingers gently brush over the skin of his own, and he swears it’s like a jolt of electricity goes through him. Your touch is addictive, and now that he’s had a taste, he’s not sure if he could ever get enough.
He chuckles, “to be honest I enjoy spending most evenings in rather than going out.”
“I see,” you nod slightly with a small hum.
Sure that may have been a little white lie, but you don’t need to know. Besides, if he’s going to counter that image of him you have because of Jordan, he’ll do anything he has to to make you believe he’s actually good for you like he knows he is.
“Well, don’t wear yourself out,” he shoots you a smile, doing his best to contain the bliss filled look that wants to spread itself across his features at this interaction you’ve have together.
“Same goes for you,” you lift your drink in a mock ‘cheers’ motion. “Don’t overwork yourself.”
“I won’t,” he promises, smiling at the way you swirl your drink slightly to mix it before taking a sip. “You like it?”
“This is amazing,” you hum, “just what I needed.”
“Glad to be of service,” he grins, giving you a small salute with two of his fingers, causing you to giggle again. God, he could never grow tired of that sound. “So, do you have any plans for the evening?”
By now, he’s leaning against the counter, for you have yet to move and he wants to be as close as possible to you for as long as he possibly can, without being obvious of course. Besides, he’s enjoying talking with you, and he doesn’t want you to leave just yet.
“Well, that chair over there,” you motion to a chair in the corner of the café, “is calling my name for the next,” you hum, checking your phone for the time, “forty minutes or so until you guys close, so…”
A small smile rests on his lips as he nods in understanding, “if you need anything, just call me over. I’d be happy to make you another one.”
“Thanks, I appreciate it,” you tell him, smile back on your lips as you move over to the aforementioned chair.
Lucas watches as you place your drink onto the small table that rests in front of the chair, taking off your hoodie before sitting down and pulling out a book to read. He smiles to himself as he moves back over to the forgotten bag of coffee beans to continue where he left off. 
Knowing you’re mere feet away from him makes him so unbelievably happy. He has to keep glancing up to check if you’re still there, and not some figment of his imagination. Even his coworkers have noticed a slight shift in his attitude when they both get back onto the floor, noting he looks more awake than before. He certainly seems happier, that’s for sure.
All too soon, it’s closing time, and he’s just finishing up wiping down the counters when his one coworker goes to let you know. Lucas bites his lip, noting that you appear to be dozing off in the chair anyways. His heart races in his chest, and holy fuck, could you get any cuter? He only wishes he could have been the one to walk you out of the café.
Some part of his brain wishes and hopes that by some miracle, you decided to wait for him to finish closing so he can walk with you to the bus stop. If he’s lucky, he could even offer to drive you home, one hand resting teasingly on your thigh while the other grips the steering wheel.
“Oh, it looks like she left her sweater here,” the voice of his coworker pulls him out of his thoughts.
He watches as his coworker quickly pops their head out of the door, seeing if they can spot you in the distance, but it looks like you’ve already left.
“Damn, that sucks,” they say, turning to look at Lucas. “You know her, right? Why don’t you give her back her hoodie the next time you see her in class or something?”
Without waiting for a response, his coworker throws him your hoodie, and fuck, does it ever smell like you. Clutching it to his chest, he nods slowly, the words finally registering in his brain.
His eyes widen slightly at what this means. He knows for a fact that he shouldn’t give you back your hoodie while in class, there’s way too many watchful eyes around. People might get the wrong idea. On the other hand, he has seen you wear this hoodie around a lot, meaning it’s probably important to you, so if he shows up with it, you might think of him as your Prince Charming coming to your rescues. On the other other hand, he now has a piece of you with him, no matter how insignificant it may be. One that he can keep all to himself.
No, he shouldn’t be thinking like this. If he wants to make you see him in a good light, the right thing to do would be give you back your hoodie as soon as possible. Setting his mind, he determines that he’ll give it back to you when he sees you on Tuesday for class. The sooner the better, and hey, maybe Jordan might stop insisting he’s a horrible person if he does this. 
Soon enough, he finishes closing up shop with his coworkers for the evening and heads back home. Stepping through his door, he lets out a sigh. After clicking the locks into place, he’s kicking off his shoes and heading straight to his bedroom. He tosses your hoodie on his bed, figuring he’ll put it aside once he’s had a quick shower for the evening.
Once again, he finds himself using the same soap you use. Considering the evening he’s had, he thinks it fitting that he smell like you. He wishes nothing more than for you to be waiting for him in his bedroom in nothing but that hoodie when he comes out of the shower, but he knows that’s a fantasy too far away to even hope for at the moment. Still, his mind cannot help but wander to that vivid image as he dries himself off.
Shaking his head, he slips on some sweats, entering back into his room to see your hoodie exactly where he left it on his bed. He licks his lips, imagining your bare legs peaking out from beneath the hem, spread out on his bed and just begging for him to be between them.
This time, he blinks to clear the vision of you from his mind. Grabbing your hoodie, he tosses it to the side of his room where his desk chair sits, hearing it make contact and seeing it hanging off the edge in the next second. Turning off the lights, he hops into bed.
Turning on his phone, he decides to scroll through instagram to see if there’s been anything important he’s missed. His heart nearly skips a beat when he comes across a newly posted photo of yours, showing off your drink from that evening along with the book you were reading. The caption reads, ‘howdy stranger’ with a little heart attached at the end, and he can’t help but read more into this than you probably intended.
To anyone else, that caption might be referring to the book, of which you may not have read in a while, or even the drink. However, to him, it’s reminiscent of your conversation, and how the two of you might still be considered strangers to some. It’s a flirtatious callback to how you two know each other, but rarely talk. Tonight was that exception, where the two of you actually had a somewhat decent conversation without anyone interrupting or pulling you away from him. The fact that you included the drink he made for you in the photo only confirms that this post was about him, and him alone.
He bites his lip, immediately liking the photo to let you know that he’s seen it; he’s gotten your message and he’s more than willing to let you know that if you only say the word, the two of you wouldn’t have to be strangers for much longer. Briefly, his eyes dart to your sweater, of which he can fairly make out the outline of hanging off of his chair where he tossed it.
Lucas decides to scroll through the rest of your instagram, just lurking on your page so he can see you in every and any photo you have of yourself. He makes the executive decision to turn on your post notifications in that moment, not wanting to miss any more of your posts, especially when they’re about him.
He freezes. Maybe he should do this for all of your social media accounts he follows. The last thing he wants to do is miss a post that could be an indicator of your true feelings towards him. What if all this time you’ve been in love with him, too, and your only way of communicating this to him is through your posts?
Grabbing his one pillow, he shifts so that it’s now clutched in his arms, him squeezing it as a rush travels through his body. What if that’s it? Maybe, there’s a small chance that you feel the same, and all of his past things never meant anything to you, and you just act the way you do cause Jordan is always with you, watching your every move around him. Of course, you’d want him, how could you not?
Smiling to himself at this new revelation, his eyes flick over to your hoodie once more. He can practically hear it calling his name, for him to hold as if it were your own body. Without waiting another moment, he gets up, snatching the item of clothing from his chair before laying back down, arms now wrapped securely around the hoodie instead of his pillow.
Burying his nose into the fabric, he takes a deep breath. Fuck, it smells so good. You smell so good, that his eyes nearly roll into the back of his head from this alone. The added scent from the soap he’s used just makes this all the more intense, and he really feels like you could be there with him.
Except, something’s still missing. Even as he continues to cradle your hoodie in his arms, it doesn’t seem quite right. That is, until his cheeks are flaring at the solution he comes up with.
Without thinking too much of it, or before he can change his mind, he’s sitting up quickly, and grabbing his previously discarded pillow. Moving the hoodie slightly, he puts it on the pillow, having it act as your torso for the time being. There, at least now there’s something more substantial to hold onto.
A smile tugs at his features as he clutches the pillow, which is now wearing your hoodie, to his chest. He can feel his naked torso burning wherever his skin makes contact with the fabric, imagining it’s really your touch there. He’s even gone so far as to toss the one sleeve over his side to act as your arm, as if you were really there holding him just as he is holding you.
Burying his face into the side of the shoulder, he takes another deep breath, grip tightening around your ‘torso’ as he lets out a low groan. His fingers fist the back of your hoodie, whole body curling around the pillow as he clings to it for dear life. Why can’t you just be here with him, right here, right now?
Would you run your fingers through his hair just like how he so badly wants to do to you? Would you teasingly litter kisses along his bare chest and neck, only to pull away and giggle at the reactions he gives you? Would you pull him closer as he cups your face and kisses you with all the passion he can muster, letting you know how much he loves and cherishes you? He bets his name would sound even sweeter than he could ever imagine falling from your lips, especially as he trails kisses down your own torso, leaving marks all the way so everyone can know that you’re his.
He bites his lip as he feels his cock throb in his pants, pure desire for you coursing through his veins as he lets his imagination run wild, and now that he has your sweater to hold onto, it’s like you’re really there with him.
Before he knows it, he finds himself grinding into the pillow, imagining it’s you, and that you’re grinding right back, desperate for his touch. Fuck, the way you would mewl with his hands all over your body, head thrown back as he gives you uninterrupted pleasure in every way he knows how.
Thoughts continue running through his head as he brings his one hand down to stroke himself over his sweats. Are you actually more on the quiet side? Are you more shy when you’re in bed? Would he be able to fluster you like he knows you could fluster him? Would you be loud for him if he asked?
A small huff of air escapes him as he turns on his back, finally sticking his hand down his pants to grasp his firm cock, stroking lightly all the while picturing it’s you doing this to him. No matter, he’d make you loud for him. He’d make sure you’ll scream from the pleasure he’s giving you. After all, his job wouldn’t be done until the only thing you remember is his name.
Licking his lips, he gently teases the head of his cock, spreading his precome with his thumb as his hand continues to stroke the rest of him, alternating his grip all the while. Throwing his head back, he lets out a low moan, followed by a curse. Your name sounds like heaven falling from his lips, and he only wishes you were around to hear just how good the mere thought of you is making him feel.
Closing his eyes, he lets images of you sucking him off fill his head. The way your lips would wrap around his cock, taking all of him into your mouth as he encourages you and holds your hair in his hand, ever so subtly guiding your movements. Fuck, the way you would hum around him, wanting to make him feel as good as he makes you feel.
He builds himself up slowly, wanting to take his time tonight and just live in his fantasies. Being able to hold your sweater in his hands is just the icing on top, letting him feel like it’s actually you there with him. After edging himself three times, he decides it’s finally time for him to come, and he knows exactly how he wants to do so.
Kicking off his pants, he shifts his body so that his pillow with your sweater on it is beneath his chest. He licks his lips, inhaling deeply with his eyes closed, allowing your image and your scent to fill his mind. One arm is wrapped around the torso of the sweater while he begins to fuck his opposite hand, starting slowly, just like how he would with you once he’s finally inside you.
For your first time together, he’d take it slow, making love to your gorgeous body all night long. He wants you to know that you’re more than just a fuck, and that he would never even think about doing something as intimate as this with another. Only you get this type of intimacy. Only you get the whispers of ‘I love you’ and the breathless moans of your name from his lips. Only you get all of him: mind, body, and soul.
Holding the pillow tighter, he begins to pick up his pace, rolling his hips into his hand as he pictures your legs wrapped around his waist. Every second that passes brings him closer to the edge, and he can feel his hips stuttering as his orgasm approaches. 
Sitting back on his knees, he releases the pillow, stroking himself intensely all the while. With a low moan, he’s coming, your name falling from his lips like a mantra as he releases all over your sweater, claiming it as his own, just as he so badly wants to claim you.
For a whole minute, he just kneels there, eyes closed and head thrown back in ecstasy. He bites his lip, bringing his free hand up to brush his hair out of his face. Opening his eyes, he looks down to see the mess he’s made of your sweater.
Cursing lowly to himself, his eyes go wide. Well, now there’s no way he’s going to give you back your sweater with it looking like this. He’ll have to wash it before giving it back, if he even decides to do that. Now that he knows what he can do with it, it’s like having his very own body pillow of you, and he doesn’t want to give that up so easily.
Moving off his bed, he cleans up quickly before sliding on a fresh pair of sweats. Once he’s finished, he slides back into bed, scrolling through his phone with his arm around the sweater, the pillow tucked to his chest. He has to find a way to be with you soon, and maybe next time, he’ll make this dream of his a reality.
That night, he falls asleep with a smile on his face, head filled with images of you and what he dreams your future relationship to be like once you’re together. He cannot wait for the day he can finally call you his in front of the whole world, and hopefully it’s soon; he just wants you so badly.
Midterms come and go in the blink of an eye, and before anyone knows it, the professor is assigning the final project. Lucas lets out a small sigh as the prof drawls on about the details during class, gaze zoned in on you once more until a certain phrase catches his ear.
“You’ll be working in partners-“ a chatter breaks out around the lecture hall before the prof grabs everyone’s attention once more. “As I was saying, you’ll be working in partners for the final assignment, but no you will not be working with a partner you choose. You will be receiving an email by the end of the day with your partner’s details for the upcoming project. I expect everyone to work diligently and thoroughly. Class dismissed.”
With that there’s an explosion of chatter and movement throughout as people begin to gather their things to leave the room. Lucas’ heart pounds in his chest the whole while, and he knows he won’t be so lucky as to get you, but he can only hope that’s the case. He just hopes that whoever he gets stuck with isn’t one of his past flings. That would be awkward as hell.
Again, he sticks close by you as you exit the hall with Jordan, discussing the possibilities of the project. He busies himself with checking his phone to make himself look occupied and not like he’s eavesdropping on your conversation.
“Who do you hope you get to work with?” Jordan asks you.
“I’m not sure, I know I probably won’t be as lucky as to get to work with you, but I hope there’s still a chance!” You reply, lip tugging upwards. “If not, the only other person I really know in the class is Lucas, so I guess he wouldn’t be so bad.”
His heart nearly stops when he hears you say those words. Maybe there’s a possibility that you really want to work with him, too.
“Ew, why do you want to work with that fuckwad?” Jordan scrunches their face in disgust.
“He doesn’t seem so bad,” you frown slightly. “Besides, I think he does well in this class, whenever I see him he’s always intently looking at his computer, taking notes.”
You’ve looked for him while in class before? His heart skips a beat. How has he never noticed?
“(Y/n), how many times have I told you to stay away from him? He’s bad news,” Jordan sighs.
“I know, Jor, I know,” you echo their sigh. “I just, don’t see what you mean. He’s only ever been nothing but decent to me.”
“Have you ever thought that there was a reason for that?” They quirk a brow.
Yeah, he’s in love with you, and he’d shout it from the rooftops if he ever got the opportunity.
“Well, regardless, he hasn’t given me a reason to be suspicious of him,” you retort.
“(Y/n), he literally has, or well, had, a Hitlist for this school. Almost every girl, and some guys have slept with him,” they tell you.
“Who he sleeps with, or has slept with is none of my business,” you glance at them out of the corner of your eyes. “I don’t care, and neither should you.”
“Listen, I really don’t care for him, or how many people he sleeps with,” they begin, “it’s the way he goes about it and treats them afterwards that has me peeved.”
“Again, that’s his business,” you say, and in the next moment a teasing smirk crosses your features. “Besides, sounds to me that someone is a bit jealous that they’re not one of his ‘hits’ as you’ve so put it.”
At this, they splutter, “what! That’s insane, I do not even like him!”
“Well, rumour has it that he likes you,” you continue with your teasing, wiggling your eyebrows suggestively at them.
“Rumours are just rumours,” they counter with a grumble, and you hum.
“Fair enough-“ 
That’s all he can hear until the two of you are too far away from him to comprehend what you’re saying. Letting out the breath he hadn’t realized he’d been holding, he leans against the wall. The biggest thing he takes away from this conversation is that you would, in fact, enjoy being his partner for this project, and he’ll make that happen no matter what. It’s a good thing your professor has office hours immediately after class, and it’s a good thing that Lucas just so happens to be his favourite student in that class.
Four hours later and he’s pacing in his room, just waiting for his phone to ping with the email notification. It’s already ten minutes passed when the professor told him that he’d have all the emails sent out by in order to contact the project members. What if the prof went back on his word?
A ping is what pulls Lucas out of his thoughts, him literally jumping onto his bed to grab his phone as he sees the email notification pop up with the subject discussing the partners for the project. His heart pounds as he opens the email, seeing that the prof came through and indeed put the two of you together like he asked. Who knew pleading his case to really support his ‘friend’ would have worked as well as it did.
All he’s gotten is your school email address, and he wants to send you an email to discuss the project right away, but he also doesn’t want to seem too eager. Should he wait for you to respond first? Maybe he should just take the initiative and send you his number so you two can start talking right away. However, before he can even open up a new draft, his inbox pings once more with a new email.
From: (Y/n)
Subject: Project
Hey Lucas!
I’m so glad to be partnered with you, it’s nice to be able to work with someone I know. Anyways, here’s my number, text me anytime and we can discuss the project in detail, I’m more active through text than email. I look forward to working with you!
(Xxx)-xxx-xxxx
(Y/n) :)
His head is reeling, and he has to read over your email several times to make sure that it’s real. You’re glad to be his partner. He can’t help his heart from racing the way it does as he saves your contact information, opening a new message thread and preparing to text you. 
Staring at the blinking cursor in the message bar, he freezes. What should he say? Probably something simple, he doesn’t want to make himself sound too eager. Plus, he wants you to think he’s cool, but also smart, but also available, but not desperate. God, what should he say?
After contemplating for a good five minutes, he settles on, “Hey (Y/n), it’s Lucas. I look forward to working with you, too :)”.
Surprisingly, you get back to him pretty quickly, and the two of you start talking about the project and some ideas you’ve had so far. Before you know it, the two of you are having a pretty decent conversation about your likes and dislikes, things along those lines. 
Lucas could not be happier than he is in this moment. He’s even brought your sweater back out for this occasion, holding it close to his chest as he reads over your entire conversation. You went to sleep a little while ago since it did end up getting quite late, but he can’t believe this has happened. Everything is falling into place, and soon, he’ll be able to make his move.
The next day, he has the closing shift at work with one of his co-workers that he closed with on Saturday. Again, it’s about an hour before close, and quiet, so he sets to cleaning the machines.
“Did you manage to give your friend back her sweater?” The question catches him off guard, causing him to freeze slightly before continuing to wipe down the machines. Maybe this question is a blessing in disguise, for he can put his plan that he’s been thinking about into motion finally.
“No, actually,” he turns to meet his co-worker’s eyes. “I ran into her friend Jordan and gave it to them to give to her.”
“Ah, I see,” they nod, going over to grab more cups from the backroom. Once they come back out, they turn to Lucas once more, “do you mind taking out the trash?”
“Sure,” he nods. He’s got nothing better to do anyways.
It takes him about ten minutes to run the garbage, and an extra five to dismiss an old fling of his who had spotted him walking back to the café. By the time he gets back, he’s slightly tense from the whole ordeal, and he can’t wait to get home so he can ask you about your day. He’s made it his goal to at least message you one small thing per day that he thinks will make you smile. He wants to show you that he cares, and that he’ll always be there for you, whenever you need him.
“Oh, hey, you just missed your friend,” his co-worker tells him once he gets back behind the counter. “She came by asking about her sweater and also asked about you. I told her you gave it to that other friend of hers.”
“Oh,” his eyes widen ever so slightly, nodding in understanding.
Besides being upset at the fact that he missed you stopping by, the fact that you asked about him sets his heart soaring. This is good! This is indeed very good for him. This means you’re thinking about him, even when he’s not around, something he could have only hoped for.
That night, he sends you a text when he gets home, heart beating nervously as he waits for your response. Once he hears that familiar ping, he’s smiling to himself, happy at how quickly you respond to him. You don’t keep him waiting long, just as he would never intentionally do so to you.
Lucas: Hey, heard I just missed you at the café this evening.
You: Yeah! I just wanted to pop in and say hi, and also ask about my sweater. I seemed to have misplaced it, and when I went to check the lost and found on campus they said they hadn’t had anyone drop it off so I’ve been retracing my steps lol
Lucas: Damn, now I’m really sorry I missed you, I could have told you that I gave it to Jordan for safe keeping
You: Yeah, that’s what your coworker told me, but they haven’t given it back to me yet. Sucks cause it’s my favourite sweater
Lucas: Damn, yeah, that does suck. Hopefully they return it soon
He looks over to the hoodie resting on his bed, still wrapped around his pillow. He really should wash it soon, he got another stain on it recently. 
His eyes widen as he thinks up a small safety measure just incase you’re over one day and find your sweater. Good thing it’s oversized.
Lucas: I have one that’s pretty similar, so if you aren’t able to get yours back you can always borrow mine lol
You: Lmaoo thanks, I’ll keep that in mind
Letting out a sigh, he shakes his head. He doesn’t particularly like the fact that he’s technically breaking your trust right now, and he has no clue what you’d do if you ever found out he lied to you, but he’s doing what he has to to ensure Jordan’s out of your life and that they can no longer keep you and him apart.
About two weeks pass by and Lucas notices that there seems to be a wedge driven between Jordan and you. The two of you no longer joke around as much as before when you’re together, and it’s as if there’s a sort of tension in the air whenever you’re around one another. For this, he couldn’t be more glad, his plan is working, though he’s surprised at how well it is. There must have been some other underlying factors causing this rift between the two of you other than the sweater incident, as you’ve now decided to call it.
On the other hand, you and Lucas have been getting even closer to one another. At least, over text messages. You do come to visit him every now and then during his night shifts, but it’s usually around closing time after you’ve finished working in the library. Even so, he’s grateful for every moment he gets to spend with you.
The due date to your assignment is getting closer every day, and the two of you have decided to finish it at his apartment this Saturday, which just so happens to be tomorrow evening. That means there’s less than a day left in the week before he’ll be able to make his final move, and make you his, once and for all.
He’s just at work refilling the coffee beans when he hears the bell chime above the door. Once again, he’s the only one on the floor, and he’s glad for it, for you walk in and manage to take his breath away like you always do. However, instead of wearing your usual calm expression, you seem more tense, and slightly frustrated.
“Hey,” he greets, putting the bag of coffee beans down so he can start your order, “the usual, I presume?”
“Yeah, please,” your reply is short as you go to reach for your wallet.
“Don’t worry about it, it’s on the house,” he says. “You look like you could use a pick-me-up.”
“Thanks,” comes your blunt response, forcing a smile that pains his heart.
“Is everything okay? I don’t mean to pry…” he trails off as he starts making your drink. 
Anyone would be able to tell that you’re not your usual self and that something is bothering you. He only wants you to know that he’s here for you, no matter what. He will always listen to whatever you have to say and do his best to support you in whatever way he can.
You let out a sigh, chewing on your bottom lip slightly, nervously. Lucas can tell that you’re contemplating on whether or not you should tell him what’s bothering you. Luckily for him, it looks like you trust him enough now to share your worries with him, a fact that warms his heart.
“It’s just Jordan,” you say, causing him to quirks a brow at you in response, waiting for you to continue. “They keep telling me that they don’t have my sweater and that you never gave it to them. This isn’t the first time they’ve kept something of mine and not given it back after saying they never had it in the first place.”
You pause momentarily, and he has to stop the surprised look that wants to spread across his features from breaking out onto his face. This plan of his is working out even better than he could have ever imagined. So, he decides it’s time to put his high school drama classes to use.
“That’s strange, considering I did give it to them,” he frowns. “Though, now that I think about it, they were acting kind of strange when I gave it to them.”
“What do you mean?” You question, brow furrowed as you watch his hands as they pour the shot into your drink.
“Well, they kind of snatched the hoodie from my hands and flung it over their arm like it was bothering them. It almost seemed like they were annoyed that I asked them to do this. Though I mean, I’ve heard they don’t like me very much,” he chuckles slightly, handing you your now finished drink, fingers brushing ever so slightly. “Though I found it strange that they wanted to talk with me in private.”
“They did?” You ask. “That is strange.”
“Yeah,” he nods subtly.
“What did they want to talk about, if you don’t mind me asking?” There’s curiosity in your eyes, but also, suspicion. Towards him or Jordan, he cannot be too sure, but he hopes he’ll be in the clear after this.
“Uh, well, I was quite shocked but they confronted me about supposedly,” he adds air quotes to his next words for emphasis, “playing with their feelings and leading them on.”
“What?” Your jaw drops.
“I swear, I was just as surprised as you are,” he goes on to say. “They told me that my little ‘game’ I was playing with them wasn’t funny any more and that I should just ‘be honest’ with my feelings for them and stop trying to make them ‘jealous’.”
“That’s ridiculous, oh my god,” you shake your head. “I don’t want to believe they would do something like that, let alone say it. From what I know, and - no offence - Jordan hates your guts.”
“That’s what I thought, too!” He replies, almost incredulously. “But I also know they like spreading rumours about people.”
You scoff, “you could say that again.”
“I mean, I don’t mean to stir anything even more, but wasn’t there also a rumour going around that I was supposedly trying to get with them or something?” Lucas leans one hand on the counter, the other resting at his side.
“Yeah, there was,” you nod. “It was cause of that coffee you brought me that one day in class, people thought it was for them cause-“ you pause, looking slightly embarrassed, “cause they were the one who drank it.”
“Oh,” he feigns a slight pout at learning this. “Did they- did they think I forgot to use lactose free milk or something?”
“Yeah, actually,” you meet his gaze, suspicion lingering in your eyes.
“I did, in case you’re wondering, just to be on the safe side,” he adds. “I knew one of them was and I didn’t want to take a chance if the one who needed it was you. Now I know I made the right call.”
“That’s actually really considerate of you,” you flash him a small smile before shaking your head. “Anyways, that’s not the point.”
“Exactly,” he agrees. “What if they were the one who started this rumour and used that as the catalyst.”
“They were pretty adamant about me not drinking it,” you recall, one hand coming to rest on your chin in thought, eyes widening as you realize something. “Holy fuck, maybe that’s why they’ve been-“ you inhale sharply, effectively cutting yourself off, “sorry to run off like this, but I’ve got to go. Thanks again for the drink, I’ll see you tomorrow!”
Without another word, you storm out of the café, a fire now burning behind your eyes. Lucas is left there, stunned, heart racing as he can’t believe that this has actually worked. His plan is almost complete, and depending on how your talk goes with Jordan, of which he’s assuming is going to happen soon based on how you cut yourself off and stormed out of here, his plan might be complete by tomorrow evening.
A large smile breaks out across his face as he finishes wiping down all of the tables for the evening, his coworker finally coming out of the back to help him close the café. His whole body warms at the fact that tomorrow, he’ll finally be able to have you in his apartment, alone. Not to mention the fact that Jordan might finally be out of your life for good, eliminating that obstacle to your relationship before it can continue to sabotage him further than they already have. All he has to do now, is wait.
The whole afternoon the next day is spent cleaning his apartment and making sure it’s spotless for you. He makes sure he has food, drinks, anything you could possibly want for when you come over. Nothing is too much when it comes to you, and he wants to make sure he has everything he may need to make sure you’re happy and comfortable with him. This is his chance to impress you, and destroy any last remnants of him being a fuckboy from your mind. He’ll treat you right, forever and always.
Sure enough, seven o’clock rolls around and he hears a faint knock on his door. His heart nearly skips a beat in his chest, palms sweaty, as he walks over to open the door for you. 
Greeting you with a small smile, he notices you seem extremely tense. As soon as you enter his apartment, you’re kicking off your shoes with a sigh as he shuts his door once more.
“Hey, let’s finish this project, yeah?” You turn to him, and he can tell that you’re drained, both physically and emotionally.
“Sure,” he nods, motioning to his living room for you to lead the way. “Uh, can I get you anything?”
“Water, please,” your response is short as you move to sit on the couch, pulling out your laptop to work on the project.
He walks back into the room a minute later with two glasses of water to see you just sitting there on his couch staring blankly at your computer screen. Placing the glass on the table in front of you, he gently takes a seat beside you, ”is everything alright?”
“Honestly?” You sigh once more, shutting your laptop and turning to look at him. “No.”
“What’s wrong?” He asks, brow furrowed in concern.
“Remember our conversation yesterday?” He nods, waiting for you to continue. “Well, I decided to confront Jordan about everything, cause everything was just a little too convenient for them, if you know what I’m saying.” Again, he nods. “We ended up getting into a huge fight, and now we’re not talking to each other. I just can’t believe they would lie to me like this.”
“What happened?” Escapes him before he can stop himself, wanting to know exactly what they told you incase he needs to cover his own ass. He’s gotten this far, and he can see the light at the end of the tunnel, there’s no way he’s slipping up now.
“Well, I told them everything we talked about, and they basically called me stupid for believing you and not them, and then said that they can’t believe I think that they stole my sweater, or that they started that rumour,” you tell him, and he listens intently to every word you have to say, reacting appropriately each time. “They kept bashing you, and honestly, that made me really upset cause you’ve been nothing but kind to me. They just keep lying, and it only looks bad on their end cause they can’t explain themselves to me properly, which I told them, then they called me stupid again, and said that I’m too gullible for my own good. Basically, they were treating me like a kid, and I couldn’t take it anymore. Like fuck, they always have something to say about everything I do, and they’re so fucking controlling, I just blew up. Then they said some things and it just spiralled out of control. I don’t need that negativity in my life.”
His eyes are wide in shock. His plan worked. It actually worked! 
“I’m so sorry that this has happened to you, and that someone whom you thought was your friend would treat you like that,” he places a gentle hand on your knee for comfort and you glance down at it before looking up at him, concern written all over his features. “You don’t deserve that, and I apologize if I was the one who got you into this mess. I feel like if I wasn’t involved things wouldn’t have ended like this. I should have just given the sweater back to you.”
“No, no, it’s not your fault,” you shake your head, rubbing at your eyes lightly to clear your vision. “Something like this was bound to happen sooner or later. I’m just sorry you had to get involved like this.” You let out a frustrated grunt. “I feel like there’s just too much going on right now, and now we have to work on that fucking project cause it’s due at midnight.”
“Well, I have some news that may cheer you up,” he squeezes your knee slightly, causing you to look at his face once more in question. “I already finished our project last night. Well, it was like, three in the morning, but I figured you could use a relaxing evening given the conversation we had yesterday”
“You did?” You look at him with eyes shining with gratitude and wonder, and fuck does he ever just want to lean in and kiss you.
“I did,” he confirms with a small smile.
“Lucas, I can’t thank you enough,” he can visibly see you relax, as if a weight has been lifted off of your shoulders just from this one act alone.
“I can order us a pizza or something and we can just relax tonight and watch movies if you want,” he’s hoping you say yes and don’t just decide to leave after learning you don’t need to finish your assignment.
“Sounds good to me,” you agree. “I could use some relaxation time, if you know what I mean.”
The wink you send him has his body tensing slightly, heart skipping a beat in his chest. Are you hinting at something else? Something more? Whatever it is, he’ll be happy to oblige.
“Oh, I hear you,” he smirks.
“Anyways, what movie would you like to watch?” You ask, putting your laptop down and leaning further into the couch, getting comfortable.
You spend the next twenty minutes deciding on what movie to watch, the two of you laughing and cracking jokes the whole time. He’s noticed you’ve relaxed even more now the more time that passed, and for that, he couldn’t be more grateful. If he allows himself to indulge in his fantasies, he envisions this as your first date night of many. 
By the time the second movie starts, he’s ordered the both of you a pizza, of which now rests on the table in front of you. About halfway through the movie, he notices you shiver slightly.
“You okay?”
“Yeah,” you mumble, “just a bit cold.”
Fuck, the only blanket he has is on his bed and it’s the one thing he didn’t wash today.
“You can borrow one of my sweaters if you’d like,” he offers, eyes flashing with something you don’t quite catch.
“Damn, at least ask me on a date first before letting me borrow your clothes,” you joke, giggling as you move to stand up.
Butterflies erupt in his stomach, a feeling he’s only rarely felt before, but a feeling he wants to feel again, with you.
“Fine then,” he notices you tense slightly at his words as he leans forwards slightly to stare at you intently, “would you like to go out with me sometime?”
You chuckle nervously, your own heart skipping a beat in your chest. You won’t deny, you’ve always thought Lucas was attractive, you just never thought you were his type. As far as you know, he doesn’t ask anyone out, so why you? Why now?
“I was kidding,” you try and brush his question off, not thinking he’s being serious.
“I’m not,” comes his immediate reply, and you notice how intently he’s staring at you, making your breath hitch in your throat.
Fuck it, “sure, why not?”
The smile you send him sends him over the moon. His plan actually worked! He nearly has to pinch himself, for this is like a dream come true, and soon, you’ll be all his, and his alone.
“So, uh, which room is it?” Your question has a million thoughts running through his head, causing him to nearly lose his composure until he realizes you’re just asking where you can find his sweaters.
“Down the hall on the right, in the closet,” he replies, willing his heart rate to calm down. “Take your pick.”
“Sweet, thanks,” you smile, heading off in the direction he’s told you.
Once you’ve arrived at his room, you slowly open the door, noting how clean and tidy his room is. The faint scent of jasmine lingers in the air as you walk towards his closet, opening the door and looking over the array of hoodies he has. As you’re riffling through them, a familiar looking one catches your eye. Immediately, you’re tearing it off the hanger, confusion written all over your face.
In your hands, you hold your missing sweater, or at least, you think it’s your hoodie. Same size, shape, make, everything. You’re about to question it further when you remember Lucas telling you that he had a similar hoodie to the one you lost. This must be the one he’s talking about.
Immediately, your shoulders relax, breathing out a sigh of relief. There’s no way he would have lied to you about everything, now, would he? You trust him enough not to linger on these thoughts for too long, instead, slipping the hoodie over your body and smiling at the familiar warmth it brings you. You only wish you could get your own back soon.
Walking back into the living room, Lucas swears he stops breathing as soon as he sees you. Luckily for him, you miss the brief panic that flashes through his eyes.
“You know, when you said you had a similar hoodie, I didn’t think you meant you had the exact same one,” you joke, sitting back down beside him on the couch. “How come I’ve never seen you wear it.”
He laughs, “I only use it for special occasions.”
“I see,” you nod.
“It looks good on you,” he says, and he’s thanking every star he decided to wash it today.
“Thanks,” you giggle, and just like every time, it’s like music to his ears.
A silence settles back over the two of you as you continue to watch the second movie. He’s already made a promise to himself not to let you leave tonight; he finally has you, and he’s not letting you go so easily. However, with the way that your head lulls onto his shoulder near the end of the movie, he doesn’t think he’ll need to work too hard to make you stay.
He looks down at your sleeping form, hand coming up to carefully stroke the side of your cheek. Shifting slightly so that you’ll be more comfortable, he wraps an arm around you, pulling you even closer into him and hearing you hum in content. This time, it’s your turn to shift, and he freezes, thinking he’s woken you up. Instead, you bury your head deeper into his side, one hand coming to rest on his chest while your one leg tangles with his own, your thigh dangerously close to his hips.
Exhaling shakily, he wills himself to calm down, not wanting to ruin this moment, and revelling in it while it lasts. All he knows, is that he’s in for one long night.

A Small Surprise
Unprofessional Bard's Masterlist
Request: Could you write a fluffy Ezio (Assassin's Creed) x Wife! Reader oneshot, where Reader finds out that she is pregnant and she surprised with Ezio by giving a knitted pair of baby booties?
Pairing: Ezio Auditore x Female!Reader
Warnings: Just fluff.
Summary: I think the request itself is pretty self explanatory 😅
Word Count: 1.365
Author's Note: Okay so I know many of you would've preferred if I wrote words like 'sweetheart' or 'my love' in Italian, but unfortunately I don't speak Italian. I mean, I speak French to some level and it could be about the same thing when it comes to masc./femininity of the words, but I don't want to confuse anyone! So I just put in an Animus text in there :")))
Enjoy!
Tumblr media
{ File Translated From Italian }
Cool breeze, warm weather and a full moon rising over the green and yellowing fields of Florence; simple yet important things Ezio thought he'd never see again on many occasions throughout his journeys from Italia to Anatolia and back. Although the city bared bad memories for the assassin, he also had the most important and precious ones there: His whole childhood, for starters, the foundations of his family and friends...
And now, something much more.
"(Y/N)?"
No reply, you were probably asleep. He closed the door and grabbed the candle which was slowly melting down on the small table right next to the entrance, which you must've lit for him. He'd been in the city for the day, handling groceries and paying a visit to Claudia while you stayed home and did chores. Only away for hours, still in the same city, yet he had missed you like crazy. Plus, there was also the voice in the back of his head, worrying him and telling him something bad must've happened to you. After his life as an assassin and making a lot of enemies, even though they were no more, he instinctively worried.
He quietly made his way up to the second floor where your shared room was and saw lights coming from the small gap under the door. He quietly knocked on the door and entered, only to find you laying on the bed with a book in your hand.
"Ezio," You smiled and immediately put the book aside. He sighed in relief and a warm smile stretched across his lips. He walked over to you, after placing his candle on the table on his side, and placed a kiss on your forehead, before sitting down beside you and giving you a quick peck on the lips.
"I missed you," He took your hand in his and kissed the back of it, then your knuckles. His lips were soft on your skin: "I missed you a lot, my sweet."
"Me too," You smiled lazily at him. "Go, get undressed and come back to bed."
"As you wish, princess," Ezio gave you a cocky grin and got off the bed.
"Princess?" You chuckled. "I think I'm a little old for that now, love."
"What can I say?" He spoke, his voice deep. "Anything to please my queen."
You chuckled, then watched him disappear into another room connected to your bedroom and took it as the perfect opportunity to pull out the little surprise you'd been working on the whole day from under your bed. You pushed yourself down until you were laying on your back and placed the small boots on your belly. Right before he walked back in, you closed the blanket over your body until it reached your armpits and, without realising, held your breath.
"How was your day?" You heard him ask you once he walked in, he was now wearing his white shirt and pants only.
"Oh, it was good, you know," You replied nonchalantly, a big, nervous smiled on your face. "I was working on something and now it's finished."
"Hm?" He hummed curiously, then climbed into bed. "Can I see it?"
"Sure," Your voice wavered in excitement. "It's actually for you- partly. Think of it as a surprise... Lift the blanket."
A mischievous smirk stretched across Ezio's face: "Oh, well, is that why you're hiding behind the covers?"
You nodded and beamed at him. He could tell you were acting a little strange, but he assumed it was because of this surprise you had for him. Thinking of it as undergarments, Ezio leaned in to place a kiss on your lips; a soft one, which made your toes curl. Despite his age, Ezio still had the energy and enthusiasm to give you the pleasure of your life- small remnants from his youth.
"Open it," You gestured the blanket after reluctantly pulling back from his lips, biting your own as you grinned at him.
He gave you an intrigued look - he was partly on top of you, so despite his head looking right down at you, his body was pressed to your side. He then slowly removed the blankets, your eyes never leaving his face. Finally, as soon as he saw the items resting on your belly, his mischievous expression turned into an utterly shocked one. You heard a hushed gasp leave his lips and saw his brown eyes widen. Ezio let go of the breath he was holding, then gulped, sitting up as he picked up the boots: "(Y/N)..."
"Surprise..." You said, voice barely above a whisper.
He quietly studied the boots in his palms, he was shocked as if he was seeing the temple goddess -this vision or whatever it was- for the first time many years ago. He finally looked into your eyes, then gently -oh, so gently- placed a hand on your belly. He was holding his breath.
He noticed he had to make sure you knew he was absolutely thrilled and excited about the news, for your face grew worried. Before you could say anything, he leaned in for another kiss- a passionate, slow, lovely kiss that made you melt.
"How long- I mean-" Ezio tried to ask after pulling back, roses blossoming on his cheeks.
"I'm not quite sure," You confessed, relaxing at his positive reaction. "Haven't been to the midwife yet."
"We can go-? Tomorrow, how about tomorrow, hm?" He grinned unintentionally as he rubbed your belly.
"Sure, okay," You nodded and chuckled at his softened behaviour. "You're happy, right?"
"Happy?" Ezio gave you an incredulous look, his eyes glowing. Was he about to cry? "You're a true jester, my love."
You giggled and lightly slapped his shoulder as he lowered himself to lay his head on your abdomen: "You could be severely punished to degrade a queen, you know." He let out another brief laugh, then a content sigh as he hugged your frame, while you placed your fingers through his hair and started to caress it slowly: "Everything's going to be better. Better than they already were."
"Yes," He agreed. His body heat caused you to remove the blanket to the empty spot beside you. He then got up, extinguished the candles on both his and your side, then went back to lay on your belly: "Are you comfortable, like this?"
"Yes," You hummed and closed your eyes with a small smile on your lips. He laid still as you combed strands of his graying hair away from his face in a calming manner. "I love you, Ezio."
"I love you too, my sweet." He lifted your night gown until the soft skin below his face got revealed, then placed a kiss on the spot right next to your bellybutton.
Ezio was the best thing that had happened to you. You'd been friends ever since you were small children, you always had a silly little crush on him but ever since he saw Cristina, you had decided it was not worth the try- he seemed so in love... After his father and brothers were killed and he fled to Monteriggioni, you and your family were harassed for protecting and being friends with them, but you never gave him up and, when he came back, he helped all of you escape to his uncle's commune.
Interesting, how fate worked. He was gone for so long, oftentimes you thought about not being able to see him again - you didn't care if he was your lover or not at one point, you just wanted to see him alive and well. After everything that you both went through, everything he did; all the places he'd visited and the women he'd been with, even after his visit to Istanbul (that was what his friend Yusuf called the city and Ezio couldn't bring himself to use any other name, and you respected that), he still somehow ended up in your arms. You'd waited for so long, gave up hope on multiple occasions despite what Claudia always told you, but you still waited. You couldn't love anyone else like you loved Ezio Auditore.
Well, the wait proved not to be a waste of time after all.

-
Tom came home carrying an enormous bouquet of lilies and roses he purchased on the way home. He bubbled with anxiety and excitement. His talk with Benedict had done him wonders. Until he opened the door to an empty house. He called out for Molly a few times but got no response. There was also no note. He slumped in a kitchen chair. His phone buzzed.
I’m on my way home. Sorry I didn’t leave a note. Hope you aren’t worried. I promise I’m fine!
Tom smiled at the message. He didn’t know why, but something gnawed at the back of his mind. He scrambled to his feet as he overheard the door opening.
“Tom?” Molly yelled into the house.
“In the kitchen, darling!” He fidgeted with the flowers behind his back. As he stared at the floor, a wide grin grew on his face.
“Molly, I…” His face fell as Evans walked in behind Molly.
“Look who stopped by and took me to lunch!” Molly squeaked.
Chris slung an arm over Molly’s shoulders. Tom’s fist clenched around the flowers behind his back.
“I hope you don’t mind me stealing your girl, Tom.” Chris smirked. “She said you were out to lunch with Benedict.”
“Not at all, Chris.” Tom lied. “I’m glad you could keep my wife company.”
“Pleasure was all mine, pal. She is,” Chris gazed down at Molly with a look that made Tom want to leap across the kitchen counter and strangle Chris. “a pretty special girl.”
“Chris!” Molly smacked his hand. “You are too kind. Thank you for a lovely lunch.” She squeezed his torso.
“And don’t forget about tomorrow. We will find decent margaritas in this city if it kills us.”
“You’re on. But you know I have discerning taste when it comes to my liquor.”
“That makes two of us.”
Molly and Chris giggled. “Let me show you out, Chris.” Tom offered.
Molly smiled over at Tom and noticed his hand behind his back.
“What’s that, darling?”
“What?” Tom’s brows knitted.
“Behind your back.” Molly strolled towards him and peeked around Tom. “Are those for me?”
Tom pulled the flowers out. “They are. I thought you might want them to brighten up the house.”
Molly gasped at the beautiful arrangement. “They are stunning, love.” She wrapped an arm around Tom’s neck and pecked his lips. “Thank you. I love them.”
Tom leaned down for another kiss, slipping his tongue into her mouth when Molly sighed.
Chris cleared his throat and hooked his thumb towards the front of the house.
“I’ll just see myself out.”
Molly pulled back. “I’ll see you tomorrow.” Tom trailed kisses down her neck, tickling her skin. She giggled as Chris waved and walked away.
“What has gotten into you?” she teased as she pushed Tom back.
“Just selling the relationship. We are newly married.” Tom commented, kissing her cheek.
“Oh.”
Tom’s answer disappointed Molly. Somewhere deep inside, that place she never admits to having Molly wanted Tom to want her for more than just a PR stunt. She wanted him to love her as much as he pretended to. But it seemed clear Tom was content on keeping things professional.
“That is the plan, after all?”
“Yeah.” Molly shook her head. “So how was lunch with Ben?”
“Good. You’re going out with Chris again?” Tom’s heart sank further down as he shelved plans to tell Molly how he felt. Evans ruined that.
“He is staying in town for a few days and with you doing auditions and meetings tomorrow, Chris thought I could use some company.” She went to grab a vase for the flowers.
“I bet he did.” Tom muttered.
“What’s that?” Molly twisted her head around.
“I said how nice of him.”
Molly smiled. “It is. He is so funny too! The stories he tells.”
Tom inhaled sharply. “Think you can pry yourself from the Captain to go out to dinner with me tomorrow night?”
“Anything for you.” She cupped his cheek. “Now what would you like for dinner tonight?”
“Whatever you would like, love. I don’t have much of an appetite.”
Molly marched over to him and placed the back of her hand on his forehead. “That is the second time you have said something like that. Are you sure you’re not sick?”
Tom pulled back. “I’m fine. There’s no need to fuss.”
Molly pursed her lips. “After you drove me to urgent care, filled my prescriptions, let me sleep in your bed, and took care of my every need for three days, you can bet your sweet ass I’m fussing.” She touched his forehead again. “Hmm. I can’t tell if you have a fever. Go lie down in the living room and I’ll bring you dinner.”
“But I…”
“Go!” She jabbed a finger at the door. “I will not have you getting sick on my hands.”
Tom held up his hands in defeat. “Yes, ma’am.”
Molly came in with a steaming bowl of a beef stew she whipped up with leftovers in the fridge and on the side some thick slices of a crusty bread she picked up a few days ago. A heavy slash of butter on top. She arranged it on a tray for Tom.
“Arms and knees up.” she commanded. Tom complied, tucking up his knees. Molly set down the tray and then settled into the spot once occupied by Tom’s feet. “Eat up.”
Tom blew onto a spoonful before taking a bite. He moaned as he swallowed. “That is exquisite, Molly. What is it?”
“Leftover stew.” Molly took a bite herself.
“You made this with the leftovers?”
“You learn to get creative with the spice cabinet.”
“Foster care?” Tom asked quietly, teeth crunching through the crust of the bread.
“College. Financial aid only goes so far. I couldn’t let food go to waste. I became famous or rather infamous in the dorm freshman year with what I could with a microwave. A modern witch, they called me.”
“You have certainly bewitched me, darling.” Tom commented without thinking. “With your cooking.” he covered. “You are a genius in that kitchen. I will have to learn some of the recipes before year’s end.”
Molly gazed up at him, pained. He was already talking about when all of this was over. Tom quickly changed the subject.
“Tell more about college. I imagine it was rather different from my experience.” Tom ate another spoonful of stew, warming his insides.
“Where did you matriculate?” Molly teased in a haughty tone.
“Cambridge.”
She let loose a low whistle. “You really are Mr. Fancy Pants.”
“With a degree in Classics.”
Molly giggled. “And I thought a tourism degree was useless.”
“Enough about me. I’m boring. Tell me about you.”
-
They talked about college, about how hard summers were when the dorms closed and Molly would couch surf while working summer jobs.
“I had amazing friends.” she whispered. “I am forever in their debt.”
Tom reached over and pulled her to his chest. “I am so sorry you had to go through that.”
“I’m not.” She snuggled against him. “Our experiences make us who we are. The good and the bad. I would have preferred an easier life. I would prefer not to freeze every time someone raises their voice, but that’s not me.” she sighed and the tears fell onto Tom’s shirt.
Tom smoothed down Molly’s hair. “I’m sorry to upset you. Let’s talk about happy things.”
“What are those?” she chuckled softly.
“How about this?” He stared down at her tucked under the crook of his arm. “Tell me about some of the craziest things you’ve seen as a bartender in Vegas?”
Molly laughed. “How about the one about the guy who peed on a blackjack table?”
“This I must hear.” Tom chuckled.
-
Tom woke up on the couch that next morning. Molly’s messy bun tickling his chin.
“Molly…” He groaned as he sat up. “… I have to get up, darling.”
Molly burrowed deeper into Tom’s chest and he couldn’t help but wrap his arms around her. He kissed her temple. She hummed and sighed. Tom’s stomach clenched.
“Time to wake up. I need to shower.”
She slowly woke and stared at Tom, realizing the compromising position of their bodies. Molly scrambled away, blushing.
“So sorry.” She sat up. “I don’t want to keep you waiting.”
Tom cleared his throat. “I still have time.” Tom sat up and fiddled his hands in his lap. “You could always come with me. We could grab some lunch. You can see all of my ‘hard work’.” Tom gazed at her hopefully.
“I…” Molly pondered the offer. “can’t. I would only be in the way. And I have plans with Chris.”
“Chris, right.” Tom stood abruptly. “We wouldn’t want you to miss that.”
Molly gave a strained smile. “I already committed. But we are still having dinner?”
“Dinner, indeed. I’ll meet you at the restaurant at 6:30 p.m.”
Molly stood and hugged him. “I’ll be there with bells on.”
-
There was a knock on the door exactly when Chris said he would come by. Molly opened the door to find Chris leaned against the frame in jeans and a henley. A devastating combination.
“Hey babe, I have an Uber and a list of five Mexican restaurants with great promise. Ready to find the perfect margarita?”
“I am.” She stepped out with a smile. Chris slung his arm over her shoulder. Molly leaned in for a bit. Just long enough for a camera to click.
-
“That first place was awful!” Molly howled in the back of the Uber as they made their way to the next place.
Chris laughed next to her. “I never knew they could make tortillas out of rubber.”
Molly’s phone buzzed. It was Luke. She switched off the phone.
“Anything important?” Chris leaned over to glance at the screen.
“Just Luke. Tom’s publicist. It is probably just something about an upcoming event. I’ll ring him back later.” Molly shrugged before tucking the phone back into her purse. “Now an important question.”
“Which is?”
“Strawberry or Lime?”
“Lime all the way.”
“A purist, I like that.”
Chris burst into laughter.
-
Tom struggled against his sour disposition through most of his auditions and lunch. It wasn’t until he got to the restaurant for dinner Tom listened to Luke’s voicemail. Which led him to googling himself for the first time in years.
“Fuck!” He hissed louder than he wanted to, drawing the attention of a nearby couple. He forced a smile and gave a small wave.
Molly slipped into the chair. “Sorry, I’m a bit late. I lost track of time and then traffic.”
Tom’s fists clenched. “Having a bit too fun with our charming Captain America?” He spit at her.
Molly blinked at him. “What do you mean by that? I was with Chris. He seems like a nice guy.”
“And you are such a friendly girl.” Tom continued to speak in a clipped tone.
“Tom, what’s wrong?” She reached out for Tom’s hand, but he pulled it back.
“This is what’s wrong.” Tom slid his phone over to her.
Molly scrolled through the pictures with increasing horror. The headlines read: Hiddleston Marriage on the Rocks? Tom’s New Bride Steps Out with Captain America Himself.
“I… I…” Molly sputtered, handing the phone back. Hot tears hit her cheeks.
Tom threw his napkin down. “We’re leaving. Keep a smile on as we leave and when we get home. No need to give the paparazzi more fodder.”
Molly stood in a daze and Tom snatched her elbow roughly to lead her out of the restaurant. As they walked outside, Tom leaned in.
“Wrap your arm around my waist and laugh like I said something funny.”
Molly snaked her arm around him and Tom pulled her tight against him. They both threw their heads back in laughter until they got into the taxi, where Tom’s expression fell into a cold mask.
Molly sniffled with stifled sobs the entire way home. Tom took no effort to sooth her. He was… cold and detached. They repeated the charade from the restaurant up the stairs to the front door. Tom had to hold back from slamming the door.
“How could you have been so stupid?!” Tom hissed, slamming his keys onto the table.
“Don’t call me stupid. I was just going out with a friend.”
“A handsome movie star!”
“Not unlike my husband! In fact, Chris called you a close friend.” Molly raised her voice.
“He would say anything to take you from me!” Tom yelled.
Molly froze and her head dropped, shoulders hunching forward. “Please don’t yell at me.”
“How else am I to make you understand, Molly?!” Tom continued to shout like someone crazed. He gestured wildly in the air. “You are forbidden to see him.”
“I want out.” Molly sobbed.
“What?” Tom snapped out of it. He glanced at Molly, only to see the damage he had done. Molly was all but curled in on herself. She sobbed freely, shoulders shaking. “Molly, I…”
“Don’t touch me.” She turned from his hand, reaching out to her. “Why is Chris different from your sister?”
“Because Emma isn’t trying to steal you from me.”
Molly chuckled. “You’re fucking jealous?! How rich! Chris is a nice guy! I used to say the same about you. I used to…” her voice trailed off.
“Used to what?” Tom sniped, tears of anger and hurt filling his own eyes. “Take pity on me? Poor Tom with shit taste in women?! Has to pay a girl to pretend to be his wife for the papers?!”
Molly reared back and slapped him. Tom held his cheek.
“Don’t you fucking dare!” Molly screeched. “I’m leaving. Don’t worry, I’ll pay you back.”
“Molly, please…” Tom begged.
“Fuck off, Tom!” Molly pushed past him. “I thought we were…” she sobbed. “But I guess not. It’s my own fucking fault.”
“What’s your fault, Molly?” Tom asked. “What’s your fault?”
“It doesn’t matter.” Molly cried, defeated. “I was clearly wrong about you.”
“Wrong how?” Tom’s heart shattered as she walked away, returning with a small bag.
“Goodbye, Tom. Don’t worry, I’ll be discrete. Wouldn’t want to tarnish your good guy image?” she sneered before heading to the door.
“Where will you go?” Tom grew more desperate as the reality of his actions set in.
“Away from you. Other than that, I don’t much care.” The front door slammed behind her.
Tom collapsed onto the couch and his head fell into his hands. “Fuck, fuck, fuck. FUCK!” he screamed into the void of his empty house.

3 for bakugo or todoroki
I decided to do Bakugo for this, & then I got this ask after I closed the prompts for this event so I decided to go ahead and do it because it’s actually one of only two Halloween-related ones and I was planning to make this Werewolf!Bakugo anyway lol. This is a fun little AU that just kinda swaps quirks for supernatural creatures, loosely based off of a bunch of campy halloween stuff like Halloweentown and Sabrina The Teenage Witch. Also, the werewolves have destined mates like those dumb Wattpad novels, because sometimes tropes are fun and cute. Also this is THREE TIMES AS LONG AS I MEANT TO MAKE ALL OF THESE but ive also gotten like five??? individual asks for it 😭😭😭so y’all better not let it flop.
3: kissing so desperately that their whole body curves into the other person’s
Though you’ve known Bakugo pretty much your whole life, there’s a lot about werewolves that you don’t know.
If he were a different person, he probably wouldn’t be telling you at 5:47 on his 21st birthday that he’s apparently supposed to figure out who his soulmate is going to be tonight. If he weren’t so closed off, even to his best friend of over a decade and a half, then perhaps you wouldn’t be having this conversation, and perhaps it wouldn’t feel quite like pulling teeth.
“You have a soulmate?” is really all you can say, because most of your mental capacity is going towards keeping the sob in the back of your throat from being audible.
“Yeah,” he grunts. He’s not even looking at you, because he’s holding his phone in one hand and he’s scrolling through it, and though the two of you are sitting on opposite sides of the couch he has your feet in his lap, free arm wrapped all the way around them like he doesn’t want you to leave. “It’s… I dunno. Kinda cool, I guess.”
“All of you have soulmates?”
“Well, yeah. You witches don’t?”
You wrinkle your nose, trying your hardest to ignore the burning at the backs of your eyes. “No. We don’t.”
Out of the corner of your eye you see him purse his lips, as if troubled by the revelation. “Huh. How d’you know who’s the one, then?”
“We just. Figure it out? I guess. Is this why you’ve never dated anyone?”
“Yeah. Not really interested in anyone but my destined.”
He says it so easily, but you know him well enough to understand. He likes the idea of a soulmate; he’s looking forward to figuring out who they are tonight. Who would have guessed that he was a romantic?
It’s awful. It makes your chest burn. You’d only come to terms with your crush on the guy two months ago. Now he’s gonna be taken from you by some random person he’s never met?
No, you suppose, he’s always belonged to them. That’s how it works, right?
“D’you know who it’ll be?”
“Hah? No, dumbass, if I did that would defeat the purpose.” Bakugo pauses, glancing over at you with just his eyes, then darting them away just as fast. It’s probably just a trick of the light, but you could swear he blushes a little as he mumbles, “I know who I want it to be, though.”
Your eyes widen and you lean up, pulling your legs back (ignoring the way his hands tense before letting them go as if he wants to hold on) so that you can kneel on them right next to him. “Who?”
“Not happening.”
“Bakugo,” you whine, drawing out the last syllable of his name.
“I’m not telling you, brat.”
You lean forward, prodding at his cheek. “Is it Mina?”
“No.”
“Jirou?”
“I’m not telling you.”
“Kirishima?”
Bakugo growls out your name, a warning, but you don’t pull away, getting even closer until you’re practically draped over him.
“Todoroki?”
He grabs you, whipping towards you as his arms fly up to wrap around your waist and yank you off him, tossing you back to your side of the couch as you shriek in laughter. He’d never hurt you, you know, and roughhousing like this is hardly new in your friendship; plus, well, you’d be lying if you said you hadn’t been hoping to feel his big, warm hands like this. Despite all his surprises tonight, he’s still all too predictable, and you’d seen this coming a mile away.
What you don’t see coming is him pausing, braced with one arm against the couch all too close to you, holding his torso over you with his head right above yours. And he stares, those crimson eyes unreadable with an expression you’ve never seen before, locked entirely on you.
You can feel his chest rising and falling steadily against yours, and your own eyes are drawn to where his adam’s apple bobs as he swallows thickly. You’re frozen, unable to move though you’d hardly want to anyway, and it hits you like a brick what he’s really been saying the whole night.
You open your mouth to speak, but then the hazy tension is shattered by the shrill sound of his phone.
Bakugo lunges away, pulls back with inhuman werewolf speed, grabbing his phone as he leaps to his feet. “‘S my mom, sundown’s soon, I have to go.”
“Wait, Bakugo—”
“See ya tomorrow, yeah?” He doesn’t wait for an answer, already half out the door.
“Katsuki,” you try, desperate, and it makes him freeze.
The door is open, his knuckles are pale with how tight he’s gripping the knob, but as much as you’ve tried it’s not enough. He’s gone without another word.
You don’t get to sleep that night.
It’s dumb; he’ll lecture you in the morning as he tells you all about his perfect amazing werewolf destined—that was what he’d called it, right? You prefer soulmate. Mate is a wolf thing anyway—who he’s spending all night with, running around in the forest howling at the moon and making out or whatever.
You stay out in the den, curled up on the couch with a blanket draped around you, ice cream in your lap, and an old movie playing that you’re not really listening to because you’ve been too wrapped up in your own head.
For an instant, you’d been so sure. A mere moment of absolute certainty that he was just as in love with you as you are him, that your oblivious pining for years was actually reciprocated. In the hours since he’d pinned you to the couch, you’d convinced yourself otherwise.
Imagine your surprise when there’s a frantic knocking at your door.
It startles you, making you jump about ten feet up in the air, and you freeze on the couch with wide eyes and a gaping mouth staring directly at the solid wood that seems to be shaking in its hinges. You’re halfway to casting a protection charm when a familiar gruff voice shouts your name from outside.
“I know you’re awake, I can hear you in there! Open the damn door!”
You glance at the time to find that it’s just under fifteen minutes to midnight. Awfully soon for him to be done, but you rise from your spot on the couch with the blanket still wrapped around your shoulders and move to let Bakugo in.
“Coming,” you say, not bothering to be loud because you know he can hear even the shifting of your clothes beneath the blanket.
He looks downright feral when you open the door, panting slightly, hair mussed up, eyes wild. But when he sees you, they light up, happy and excited like a damn puppy.
“Are you drunk?”
“Uh… kinda?”
“...Magical bullshit?”
He nods, a rough toss of his head to affirm. “Ancient rituals. Tipsy’s more accurate, if anything. Figured out who my destined is.”
“And you came to me? Shouldn’t you be with your soulmate, then?”
Bakugo blinks, clearly stunned, barking out a burst of laughter before shaking his head. “You’re somethin’ dumbass.”
You go to respond, more than a little insulted because he’s been acting so fucking weird all day and he has the nerve to say you’re being dumb, but any retort is flung from your mind as he steps forward and puts his hands on your arms.
Leaning in until your noses are practically touching, he speaks. “It’s you. It’s always been you.”
“H—huh?” you stutter out, heart stopping and mind reeling with his words.
“I wanted it to be you. And it’s you.” His hands slide down your arms to meet yours. “You’re my destined.”
There’s so much more to say, so much to ask him, everything ranging from but I’m a witch, how is that possible to so we could have been fucking dating this whole time but he doesn’t let you speak, clearly too overjoyed and inebriated, and you’re not entirely opposed when he yanks you in with exactly the level of roughness you’d imagine from him and kisses you.
And finally, finally, after a decade and a half of wanting to (longer than you even knew what kissing was), you can melt into him.
You believe him then, not that you particularly doubted. It’s like his lips are the missing piece to a puzzle, one you’ve been looking for your whole life. He holds you up with ease, werewolf strength coming in handy, as one hand laces with your own and the other darts to the small of your back. He’d be holding you closer, but you’re literally as close as you could be, body curving against him as his taller form hunches over you.
He kisses you far more sweetly than you’d have expected; no teeth or tongue but still all passion, heavy palm and fingers splayed across your back as the other hand pulls you and grounds you. It’s heated and it makes you forget that you’re both standing in the middle of the open front door at midnight.
You’re both reluctant to break away, you can tell because you both linger a little, bodies frozen as the kiss is followed by one, two, three more just as feverish but decreasing in length. Then the two of you pull away for real (not by much, no, he’s holding you far too intensely for you to get far) and you stumble backwards pulling him by his shirt into your home. He gets the hint, following and shutting the door behind you but not letting either of you make it very far beyond.
“All right,” you say finally, breathless both from the kiss and from giddy laughter bubbling up within you, “all right, you’re my soulmate.”
Bakugo kisses you again.

Bisexual
Tumblr media
[Smut, a tiny bit of fluff]
• Ten x Reader (fm)
requests closed ♡
-You are gay, aren’t you? I mean, by the way you look at Johnny, it’s pretty obvious- You speak nonchalant, fixing your eyes on the random yaoi movie you both are watching.
-I prefer calling myself bisexual- Ten answers with no amusement- I still don’t know how it’s to have sex with a girl-
-That’s why i thought you were gay- He laughs under his breath. You turn your sight to him, just to admire his delicate face traits. Indeed, Johnny was lucky.
Being friends with Ten was something... peculiar. He is a mystery, in every possible way. When you think you know him, suddenly he appears with a personality totally different from what he chose to show you. In those 5 years of knowing eachother, Ten always had something new to uncover about him, making you feel refreshed. There was no way you could be bored with him, everything felt new, funny, dangerous. He helped you to skip your first class, to get an A on maths, how to get drunk without puking, and how to freestyle dance. You just don’t imagine your life without him.
And now, that you both live together, everything got even better. Nights reading tarot cards, laughing at some Tik Toks, and even you both escaped to make a friendship tattoo: A little butterfly under your boob and under his chest. 
Some people would say that you both look like a couple, but there is no way Ten have ever felt that way with you. Oh, but if you talk about your personal feelings...
-Uhm, __, do i have something in my face or..?- Ten whispers so suddenly you snap out of your thoughts. One side of his face is iluminated by the different colors of the sunset that it’s occuring outside your balcony window. He looks so pretty like this, how can he even be real?
-Yeah, some uglyness over there- You try to play it cool, throwing a pillow towards him, positioning it on his lap so you can rest a bit over your heavy thoughts.
He doesn’t seem to complain, and starts playing with your hair. It feels so nice to be around him, he is your comfy zone, your safe space.
-I really want to know- he mumbles.
You freeze.
-Know? What do you wanna know?- For some reason, you don’t want to look at him.
-How it’s to have sex with a woman- he sounds so damn secure about himself, like those words didn’t afect you at all. But he’s wrong, your heart speeds up a little bit, trying to figure out where this conversation was heading to. No, there is no possible way that...
-I’ve been thinking about this a long time ago, you know- his voice goes deeper this time- I know so much about sex with men, but so little with girls. I really want to try how I develop during the act- What the fuck is he talking about?
-Ten, what the f...- he grabs you by your back so you sit up and face him. You are only centimeters away from your nose to rub his.
-I want to know... ___, please let me find out- he almost sound like begging. You hold your breath trying to conect the last neurons that are functioning so you convince yourself that you are not dreaming. You can’t help but look at his lips,just waiting for his sign...
There is no movement at all, not his, not yours. The only thing you can hear is your own heartbeat buzzing on your ears, his warm hands on the sides of your cheeks, his eyes piercing your thoughts.
-Just kiss me already- Your voice trembles, almost like if you are unsure. Actually, you are, there is no way this could end in a good way.
But all of that fades away when he connects his lips with yours. For a few seconds, it’s only that, just your lips touching. But it’s enough to make your mind go fuzzy, fireworks erupting on your lower belly, feeling like this moment should’ve happened so many years ago. When you interwined your fingers while walking on the park, or when he comforted you when you broke up with Kun. But no matter how awkward this moment was, it is everything you needed.
You don’t know how longer it takes for you to experimentally open your mouth a little bit, just to lick his lower lip, tasting the waters. He moves away quickly, leaving your mouth hanging open. You think you messed something up, but before you can apologize about taking things too fast he grabs you violently by the nape of your head, so he can start to kiss you messily.
Everything is tongue, saliva and teeth. There is no control, at all. His tongue works majestically inside your wet cavity, exploring every inch of it, like he was marking your mouth as his. You let him lead everything, you just melt under his ministrations, trying to fight his tongue only to earn a deep growl from his throat. 
He grabs your hips giving you a sign to sit on his lap and you do, gasping as soon as you feel his hard clothed member against you. He janks your hair just to have your neck fully display to him, so he can start marking you up. It first starts as tongue kisses, but slowly he sucks mercyless every inch of your neck and collarbones.
-Ten, i have dance classes tomorrow- you try to stay as rational as posible, running your fingers through his dark black locks- Dont mark me up-
He looks up to you, mouth full of saliva, eyes glistening -You are acting as if you aren't mine-
It felt like somebody totally different from Ten was talking to you now. When you said that he always had something new about himself to show, you weren't kidding. His voice was always sweet as a candy cane, but now you can swear he can cut a rock with a whisper. You shiver, not knowing what its going to happen at all.
-My dear pup- what... is that... a nickname? A pool starts to grow on your panties, and you are afraid you will wet his jeans as well- Do you think i don't know how i make you feel only by looking at you? By touching you?- he lays back on the sofa where you both at, just so he can admire your fucked up state, he is loving how wrecked you are by him- Why do you think i dont fuck any other girls, huh? Because I know how to drive you insane, i know how you masturbate with your filthy vibrator everynight you see me without a t-shirt, wishing that pleasure was given by me- your mouth opens in surprise, and you suddenly want to be swallowed by the couch and just disappear. It seems that he notices- The only girl i want to pleasure my whole life is you, because you are the only one who can make me feel this- he grabs your wrist so your hand touches his dick over his pants.
You are absolutely clueless of everything. So many things happening so fast. He heard you masturbating? He masturbates himself thinking about you? Is it now even the time to wonder about those things?
Almost on queue, he kisses your lips softly, caressing your hair -Let me make you feel good, pup. I want to try everything with you, only you-
A loud moan breaks the ice between you two. You look at eachother trying to figure out where the sound is coming, until you both face the TV. Right, the Yaoi movie. The scene is so fucking explicit you couldn't help by sigh, and that doesn't slip out of Ten.
-You like watching that, don't you?- he turns you around, so now that your back is pressed against his chest. He opens up your legs and in a blink of an eye has his hands roaming the waistband of your pajama pants. -You are so filthy, what if that was me and Johnny? Would you rather watch that?- you moan not only because of the scene you just imagine, but also that his fingers start to ghost against your wet folds- Or do you prefer me fucking you, making a mess out of you?- he teases you, rubbing gently but never putting enough pressure, he only rubs your pussy lips.
You open up your legs in desesperate attempt to make him touch you more, but he just takes his time. You are not watching the movie at all, your mind wandering about all the things you can try with him.
Finally, his index finger rubs your clit slowly in a up and down motion. You hate the fact that you are too vocal when it comes to sex, but it seems that for him it tastes like glory. Using two fingers now, he decides to rub your now hard and too sensitive nub in different ways, but when he starts to do it in circles is when you close your eyes and moan his name loudly.
-Okay, that's how you like it then- and you dont notice when he starts to pick up his pace. You are so close, so damn close due to all the dirty talking, but you don't want it to end.
-Ten please, i don't want to cum yet- you rest the back of your head on his shoulder, eyes rolling back. You can hear the sounds that come down from your wetness, and it seems that he tries in all best ways possible to make those sounds louder and louder.
-Who says you have permission to cum anyways, pup?- he whispers in your ear. His eyes are fixed in how his fingers are working on you, at the same time he is listening carefully how his name slips out of your tongue everytime he slows down. 
-Ten ‘m so close, please- You don’t know what are you begging for. Your legs tremble trying to hold your orgasm but you feel like you are going to explode.
-I love when you call me by my nickname, but sometimes i think you forget about my real name- He stops his actions, making you groan in disapproval, but he hush you while introducing his fingers on your mouth. You don’t want to admit it, but you truly love your own taste. 
You suck clean his fingers, swirling your tongue around them, while trying to look at him in the eyes, though it was kinda difficult due to the position he is. He bites his lips, humming in agreement, he likes what you are doing.
-I want to hear how you scream my name while i make you cum- He starts to rub your clit again, but 10x faster. He looks like an expert rubbing you, it feels so damn good, it’s impossible that he is a “girl virgin”.- Say it-
-Chittaphon...- You feel so embarrased, and don’t know why, but you choose to let go and get consumed by pleasure. You feel it, that tight knot begging for release, your hands holding on dear life by his arm muscles, hearing his grunts on your left ear, even the year of his piercings on your cheek makes you burn and get closer and closer.
-Chittaphon im cumming- you warn him with voice cracked, you can’t hold it any longer. 
-That’s it pup, let go, cum for me- He whispers and licks your earlobe. And that’s all that takes for you to disappear from earth, being sucked in by the orgasm that is washing you. You chant his name over and over again, your inner walls clenching around nothing, the climax seems to last for hours. You feel your clit throbbing, thighs full of your own liquids, and you black out.
-____, baby, it’s okay- He hears that you are whimpering, destroyed by pleasure.- Don’t move, let me clean you up- 
In a matter of minutes, you start to get conscious, eyelashes batting fast trying to recognize where you are. The aroma of Ten invades you and suddenly you feel calm, you are in his bed, covered, with a white t-shirt and nothing else below that. He is laying besides you, hugging you by your waist, caressing your skin with his thumb.
-Hey, you woke up. I was worried, i thought i knocked you out or something- He smiles, clearly proud of the mess he just made. You slap his shoulder, letting a little laugh slip out of your mouth.
-Sorry-
-About what?-
-I just passed out... i didn’t even suck you off- You legit feel embarassed.
-Ah, ____, i wanted it this way. It was perfect, trust me- He pecks your lips, worried that maybe you won’t believe him- This is what i asked for-
You feel your heart full. Of blood maybe, but it’s a metaphor to explain how complete this man makes you.
-So, are you bisexual or not- You try to change the subject, laying on your side so you can face him. You still don’t get used to the idea that probably, probably you both like eachother. He laughs outloud, with his perfect teeth on display, and then he bites his lip.
-Im ___sexual, for sure-
You don’t know what it’s going to happen before this. But that’s Ten’s essence, he is a complete mystery. And that’s why you are madly in love with him.

Office Romance
Tumblr media
Pairing: CEO!Ashton Irwin x Secretary!Reader
Words: 3300+
Author's Note: after boasting to @calpalirwin​ about writing a ceo fic this has come to life! I hope you guys enjoy it 🥰 xox
"Have you heard?" A co-worker asks you as you get to your desk, setting your purse on it before sitting down.
You look up at her with a confused look on your face and shake your head. "No? What are you talking about?"
"Well, apparently the daughter of Allen Richmond is coming for your job," she spills and your eyes widen.
"I- What? Why?! She doesn't even know how to do anything," you scowl and stand up from your desk, heading towards your boss' office.
You knock on his door before peeking your head inside. "Sir?" You call out and he lets out a groan, removing himself from inside his cabinet. "Sorry, you okay?"
He turns to face you and your breath hitches in your throat. Fuck, he's so gorgeous. "I'm okay. Just scared me is all," he mumbles and heads back towards his desk, sitting on the edge of it. "What's up, Y/N?"
You shut the door to his office and step up to him, fiddling with your fingers. "Did you hear the news, Mr. Irwin?" You ask and he furrows his eyebrows, shaking his head. "Someone's out for my job."
A loud laugh leaves his lips and shakes his head, getting up from his desk. "There's no one that could take your job, Y/N. You're valuable to me and this company," Ashton mentions and you bite your lip softly.
He brings his hand up to your face and strokes your cheekbone. Your heart pounds in your chest, looking up at him through your lashes as he smiles down at you.
"T-That's reassuring," you whisper and his thumb moves to your bottom lip. Your eyes flutter shut as Ash tilts his head to the side, swiping his thumb across your lip. "Mr-"
He clears his throat and steps away from you, shoving his hands into his pockets. "Sorry. Got a little carried away there," he mumbles and you shake your head, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear.
"It's okay. Don't forget your meeting today," you remind him before walking towards the door.
"And Y/N?" He calls out and you look over your shoulder to see him leaning against his desk once more. "Please call me Ashton."
You nod your head with a small smile and head out the door. You shut it behind you before leaning against it and let out a deep breath. You place your fingers against your lips, still feeling his touch on them. "Fuck."
You sit back down at your desk, your thoughts filled with what just happened. He's been flirting with you for weeks and you're not sure what he's after. Whether he just wants to get in your pants or he has feelings for you.
A figure stands in front of your desk and you look up to see one of Ashton's close friends, Mr. Hood. "Mr. Hood, good morning," you greet with a friendly smile, motioning towards Ashton's door. "Go on ahead."
He smiles down at you, shaking his head. "Y/N, how many times do I have to tell you to call me Calum. Mr. Hood makes me sound old," Calum chuckles and you join in. "How have you been?"
"Uh, pretty good," you mumble and shuffle in your seat. "Actually can I ask you something?"
Calum nods his head and decides to take a seat in front of your desk, crossing one of his legs over. "Of course. Ashton can wait. What's up?" He mentions and you take a deep breath.
"Is- You've known Ashton for a while, yeah?" You question and the brunette nods his head in answer, seeing the confusion in his facial features. "Does he… does he usually flirt with his secretaries? I know I've only been here for about six months, but-"
"You're telling me that Ashton's flirting with you?" Calum cuts you off and you nod your head slowly. "Never thought I'd see the day where Ash is interested in his own secretary. You must be special."
You blush at his words and see the smirk on the man's lips. "I-Wha-?"
"Ashton's not really one for love. I mean, at least he's never expressed it to us. But, I have noticed him being giddier to come to work lately," Calum explains and your heart flutters in your chest, glancing towards the wooden doors.
"Isn't it… against the rules?" You quietly ask and Calum scoffs, waving his hand.
"Please. Ashton's the CEO. I don't think he cares about rules." Calum stands from his chair and rests a hand on mine. "Whatever you do… don't break his heart," he tells you and you frown slightly as the brunette walks into Ashton's office.
-
You step out of the elevator on the eighteenth floor, scrolling through your phone while sipping on some lovely hot chocolate. You halt your steps as you see a platinum blonde woman sitting in the seat that's across from your desk and furrow your eyebrows.
"Can I help you?" You ask while walking around, setting your stuff onto the desk. She looks up with a smug look on her face and you already know who it is. Rebecca Richmond.
"Well, you're certainly late," she says with a nasty tone and you narrow your eyes.
You sit down in your seat and give her a fake smile. "Well, since we don't open until nine a.m. I'm early. So, what do you want?" You ask again as it was your turn to give her a smug look.
"I'm here for an interview," Rebecca scoffs and looks down at her nails and you hum in response, looking at the calendar that sits on your desk.
"Hm, interesting because Mr. Irwin isn't scheduled for an interview?"
You lean back in your chair as Rebecca abruptly stands up. "Listen here you little bitch-"
"Did I just hear you call my secretary a bitch?" Ashton asks and a gasp leaves the blonde’s lips, quickly turning around to face the man.
You eye Ashton as he stands by his office door. You bite your lip softly at the grey suit he decided to wear today, it being one of your favorites on him.
"I-No, sir, I'm sorry," she apologizes and takes a step towards him, holding her hand out. "I'm Rebecca Richmond. You might've heard of me."
His hazel eyes stare at her hand for a few seconds before glancing towards you. "Okay, but what are you doing here? We're not open," Ashton tells her and starts to go into his office.
"I'm here for the secretary job!" Rebecca calls after him, walking into his office.
"Shit," you whisper to yourself and spring up from your chair. "Excuse me you're not allowed in here without an appointment."
Ashton sets his briefcase on his desk and turns back around. "Okay, so, I'm only going to say this once Rebecca," he starts and crosses his arms over his chest. "There's no secretary job open. I have one. A very good one and I don't intend on replacing her, at all. I don't give a fuck who you are so you have three seconds to get out before I call security. Also, apologize to Y/N for your behavior."
Rebecca's lips part in shock, not expecting Ashton to speak so harshly to her. A scoff leaves her lips as she turns to leave, her eyes meeting yours. "I'm sorry," she grumbles before storming out of the door.
An airy chuckle leaves your lips as you look over at Ash, seeing his fingers rub his temple. "Everything okay, sir?" You ask, growing a bit concerned as he lets out a deep breath.
"Yeah," Ashton starts and moves to sit in his chair. "Got a call this morning from one of our stores. The manager is a corrupt bastard and stole thousands of dollars from us."
"Oh…" you trail off and bite your lip. "What are you gonna do? Do you need me to schedule a meeting with the lawyers?"
He leans back in his chair, running a hand through his hair. "Yeah, can you? See if they can come by immediately," Ashton mentions and you nod your head, beginning to walk towards your desk. "Can you also run to get some coffee? I didn't get a chance to stop this morning."
You nod your head with a smile and shut his office door as you leave. You sit down at your desk and grab a hold of the phone, dialing the number of the company's lawyer.
-
You walk into the office the next morning, a coffee and hot chocolate in your hands as you notice Ashton's office door open. Your eyebrows furrowed together as you step up to the open door, seeing the brunette asleep on his desk.
"Sir?" You call out softly and Ashton doesn't move, a snore coming from his lips. You chuckle and walk into the office, setting your cups onto his desk. "Ashton?"
You place a hand on his shoulder, shaking gently and the man jumps, looking around the office. "What?!" He yells and you wince a bit, your hand falling from his shoulder. Ashton looks up at you and releases a sigh of relief. "Y/N, it's just you."
"Good Morning, Sir," you laugh and hand him his coffee. Ashton gives you a small smile and takes it from you, giving it a sip.
"Thank you, sorry. You must be confused to see me here before you," he mumbles while rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
"More or so concerned. Why didn't you go home, Ash?" You ask him and sit on the edge of his desk.
A sigh comes from his lips as he brings his hand up to your thigh, running his fingers along the nylons you're wearing. Your breath hitches in your throat, staring at his hand for a few moments before looking back up at him.
"The lawyers were here late last night and I must've fallen asleep before thinking about leaving. It was exhausting," Ashton mumbles, his hand still stroking the inside of your thigh.
You let out a hum, seeing the slight bags under his eyes and you reach forward to gently touch them. "Why don't we close for the day. Push everything scheduled for tomorrow?" You question and Ash shakes his head. 
"I can't-"
"You can. You're the CEO. You're allowed to have a day off Ashton. You keep working like this you're going to kill yourself," you explain to him sternly and his eyes widen. "And I would preferably like to keep you alive."
Ashton's lips part at your words, his hand squeezing your thigh in response. He stands up abruptly before pressing his lips against yours. Your eyes widen at the action, your hand moving to grip his suit jacket.
Your eyes flutter shut after a few seconds and begin to kiss him back. Ashton's hand slides up the side of your neck, his thumb resting against your cheekbone. You wrap one of your arms around his neck, your fingers gliding through his hair as he pulls away from you.
His face is inches from yours, feeling his warm breath fanning your lips as you keep your eyes closed. "God, you really are amazing, love," Ash whispers against your lips, giving them light pecks.
A breathy chuckle leaves your lips as your stomach tied in knots, not believing that this is actually happening. "I- That was unexpected, sir," you laugh and Ashton giggles as well, pulling away from you.
"I'm full of surprises, darling," he grins and drags his thumb across your bottom lip like he had done the other day. "Go home. I'll see you tomorrow."
You get off of the desk, smoothing out your skirt before tangling your fingers together. "Go get some rest, Ashton. You need it. For me," you mumble the last bit and kiss his cheek gently.
Ashton hums in response, his hand resting on your waist. "I will. I promise."
-
You get on the elevator with some coworkers, smiling at them as you wait for the doors to close. Just as it was about to close a hand shoots out and causes it to open back up. You blush a bit upon seeing Ashton step into the elevator, his hazel eyes meeting yours.
"Morning, Miss L/N," he smirks and stands beside you.
"Mr. Irwin," you whisper as flashes of a few nights ago play through your head.
You volunteer to stay late and help Ashton finish the lawsuit agreement for the store in Santa Barbara. Everyone else in the office has already gone home, leaving just the two of you sitting at his desk. You watch him type away on his computer, seeing his eyebrows furrowing as he concentrates on the words.
"You're staring, love," Ashton suddenly points out and you jump a bit, clearing your throat.
"Sorry," you chuckle and tuck a strand of hair behind your ear.
He looks over at you with a smirk, leaning his chin against the palm of his hand. "Do you… do you like what you see, Miss L/N?" Ashton asks teasingly and your cheeks flush in response.
One of his hands rests on your thigh and you swallow thickly, glancing down at it for a few seconds. "A-Ashton-"
He leans forward and connects his lips to yours, causing your breath to hitch in your throat. "You get frustrated so easily. It's cute," Ashton mumbles after pulling away, his lips running along your jawline. "C'mere."
You find yourself straddling his lap, your skirt pulled up slightly to make your position more comfortable. You comb your fingers through his hair, taking your bottom lip between your teeth. "You're just… irresistible, sir," you whisper against his lips.
Ashton grips your hips before one of his hands moves to your ass. He lets out a groan and presses his lips to your neck, nibbling on the skin gently.
"You're just as irresistible, my love," he says against your skin and feels his hot breath. Ashton scoots closer to his desk, moving his computer out of the way before sitting you on top of it. "Can I taste you?"
A breathy moan leaves your lips as you nod your head, the smirk coming back to Ashton's lips. "P-Please."
"Oh, look at you with your manners," he mumbles while rubbing your inner thighs, spreading your legs apart. "Such a good girl. Letting your boss have a taste."
You tilt your head back as Ashton presses his lips to your inner thighs, your heart pounding against your chest. His hazel eyes look up at you as he moves your panties to the side, dragging his tongue up your folds.
A loud moan leaves your lips, your back pressing against the mahogany desk. "Fuck, Ash-"
"Y/N?" One of your coworkers snaps her fingers in front of your face and you snap out of your thoughts. "Hey, this is our stop."
You blink and realize you've reached the eighteenth floor. You look out to see Ashton glancing over his shoulder, nodding his head towards his office.
"Must've zoned out," you mumble to her and she lets out a chuckle, the two of you walking out of the elevator. "I'll see you for lunch?"
She nods her head and you continue towards Ashton's office when she grabs your wrist. "Tell me the details later, yeah?" She asks with a smirk and you furrow your eyebrows, wondering what she's talking about.
"I don't-"
"Please. I can see the way you and Ashton are looking at each other. Plus, I can feel the tension between the two of you."
Your eyes widen and you look around to make sure no one is listening. "Okay, so, something might've happened. Please don't tell anybody," you mention and she zips her mouth shut before throwing away an invisible key.
You chuckle and continue to head towards Ashton's office, setting your stuff onto your desk before walking into the other room. The door shuts behind you and Ashton pushes you against it.
"Good Morning, love," he grins before pressing his lips to yours.
You hum in response, kissing him back as you're wrapping an arm around his neck. Ash's hands run up your sides before resting on your hips, pulling away from you. "Morning, sir," you giggle and rest your forehead against his.
Ashton smiles widely and kisses your forehead. "Do you wanna get lunch together?" He asks.
"Like, a date?" You question with a raised eyebrow, biting your bottom lip.
He licks his lips and strokes your cheekbone, tilting his head. "Absolutely," Ashton tells you, and your heart flutters in your chest. "If you haven't noticed by now I like you… a lot."
Your cheeks blush and you give him a cheesy grin, pushing some of his hair out of his face. "I like you too, Ash. A whole bunch," you confess to him before placing a quick kiss on his lips.
-
You breathe heavily as you lay on the couch in Ashton's office, moving the hair from your face. The black-haired man presses a soft kiss to your collarbone before getting up, grabbing the suit from his chair.
"Is it weird that I find this hot?" You chuckle and Ashton smirks while pulling his slacks up.
"Nah, baby. It is hot. Even hotter when everyone is here," he winks and buttons his blazer before soothing it out.
You sit up on the couch as Ashton gives you your bra and panties. "It's definitely harder to keep quiet, that's for sure," you chuckle while putting your bra on. You stand before slipping your thong back on, reaching for your skirt when Ash stops you.
"Hold on," he mumbles and moves to grab his phone. His eyes meet yours, taking his bottom lip between his teeth. "Lay back down. Want to remember this moment."
You roll your eyes at him, giggling softly before laying back on the couch and posing for the man. He lets out a groan and takes a couple of pictures before putting his phone away.
"You're so stunning. How did I get so lucky?" Ashton mentions and you can't help but blush, putting the rest of your clothes on.
"Probably the same reason as to how I got so lucky, handsome," you grin and stand up, walking over to him.
He leans down to capture your lips with his, both of you letting out a hum as Ashton grabs a hold of your waist. A knock on the door pulls the two of you apart before it suddenly opens up.
"Excuse yo-"
"Oh, hold your horses," a familiar voice calls and Calum walks through the door before shutting it behind him. "It's just me."
Ashton lets out a sigh, giving the brunette a look, and returns his attention to you. "I should probably get back to my desk, sir," you giggle and Ash rolls his eyes playfully before kissing you once more.
"I love you," he whispers against your lips and you can't help but shudder a little, your hands gripping his arms.
"I love you too, Ashton," you say back to him and press a kiss to his cheek before walking out of the office.
Ashton follows your figure until you leave before bringing his gaze to his friend. "What an entrance. Good thing you didn't come before," he snickers while moving to sit in his office chair.
"You two seem to be doing well, yeah?" Calum asks with a stupid grin on his face, sitting down in one of the chairs.
"Yeah, we are. I… love her, a lot," he tells Calum while fiddling with his fingers. "Something I never thought would happen for a long time."
"I'm happy for you, Ash," he says and Ashton nods his head, running a hand through his hair.
"Thanks, dude. You think the other guys will like her?"
The brunette lets out a playful scoff and crosses his arms. "Of course they will. She's wonderful," Calum reassures him and Ash nods his head in response.
"Good cause I'm thinking about introducing her to everyone. We've been together for six months. I think it's time."

Summary: domestic Harry, husband!Harry, all that jazz
Warnings: Smut
Word count: 1.8k
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Moonlight continued to cascade on his back. He had a concentrated look on his face as he tried to get the thing i begged for to work. “I can’t get this fuckin’ thing to work.” he scroffed.
“Harry you have to twist it,” I said while looking over the manual.
“I only do this for you my darlin’,” he peered back at me and gave me the cheekiest grin.
“I know you’re only saying that to get in my pants,” I rolled my eyes
“Absolutely not,” he sounded genuinely hurt, “Plus I wouldn’t even need to do that.” he grinned.
“Is that so?” I raised my eyebrow and chuckled.
“You’d come crawling on your knees for my baby.”
“Don’t flatter yourself, hurry and finish I want to see.” I stood up and walked to where Harry continued to work at the telescope.
He stepped back, “It looks like it should work,” yet he sounded unsure.
“Alright I trust you, now shoo.”
“Hey! I built the bloody thing, I would also like to see ‘all the stars’,” he teased with a grin. I merely scoffed at him and peered through the lens, letting out a small gasp.
“It looks beautiful Harry,” I exclaimed.
I moved to allow him a glimpse of the night sky.
“Fuckin’ hell, you can see everything,” he squited and hunched over the telescope while I hugged him from behind.
“We should get inside and get the table set for dinner.” I say into his back.
A few friends were coming over to celebrate a recent promotion I had gotten at work. Harry was estatic and insisted we have a celebration. Which meant we now had to finish cooking and get ready for guests. Something Harry wasn’t particularly fond of when having guest over.
“Just a minute, I wanna stay outside with you for a bit.” He hums. It was dark and there was a slight nip to the air but our warmth combined was enough for us.
He turned around and returned the hug. His warmth enveloping me whole. My check to his chest, I could hear and feel his heart beating. Even after all this years, through every argument, I can’t believe the amount of love I have for this man. Everything he does amazes me, the kindness and gentleness he has never stops surprising me. I truly don’t think he understands how big of a gift he is the world. How in awe we- his family, friends and even fans- constantly are of him. I don’t think he realizes how many people he has, and continues, to save. The fact that he does it all without asking anything in return for himself, somehow makes him so much admirable. ———————————————————— “I’ll take the plate, don’t worry about it,” I say as I grab his plate and take it to the sink. Not before he sneaks a slap to my ass.
When I turn to look at him, he has the cheekiest grin ever and giggles like a teenage boy.
I can’t help the smile that makes it’s way onto my face.
“I couldn’t help myself,” he grins, “especially not when you’re wearing a skirt that short.��
“Don’t slut shame me, you asshole,” I snap back playfully
“Baby I want you to dress slutty in front of me,” he hugs me from behind and slowly push’s his groin into my backside, “it makes my dick rock hard.”
I mhmm in acknowledgment. I decide to tease him back and slowly start to move my hips.
He groans and starts placing sloppy kisses along my neck, “babyyyy, if you keep doing that I’m gonna take you right here.”
“Do it,” I moan when he starts trailing his hand down my stomach.
Just when he’s about to reach the button of my jeans the door bell rings.
“Fuck,” he all but growls.
I laugh, “relax baby we’ll have time later.” I wink as I go to answer the door
“You absolute tease,” I hear him say.
—————————————-
We’re all three drinks in and it’s clear everyone’s starting to feel it. Harry is telling the story of the renovation we recently had done in the guest room, to which Jeff and Glenne listen to intently.
“Seriously, I’ll give you both the number to the company that did our flooring,” I say to them.
They turn their heads and smile at me, “That would be wonderful, thank you,” glenne says with a grateful smile.
Despite our time together, being around Harry’s friends never fails to make me nervous. I think a part of me is worried if they don’t like me, what Harry would do. Surely he’d pick his best friend and manager over a girl, right? My thoughts are interrupted when my close friend Mae asks Harry a question.
“Renovations in a new house, but no ring?” She has a playful tone and everyone laughs but Harry and I both look at each other slightly panicked.
It’s not that we didn’t want people to know that we had gotten married. But the constant questions and pestering became a drag to deal with. Which is why we choose to instead elope with only our familys knowledge. It was beyond lovely being able to experience the first few months of our marriage without the constant unwanted attention from everyone.
It was a secret between the two of us, something that made our love all the more special.
Harry takes a deep breath and looks over the Mae, “it’ll happen soon, don’t worry,” he grins.
“I’ve told you a thousand times Mae, we’ll go to a courthouse and that’s it,” I smile, knowing this is where we constantly lost everyone in our marriage plans.
Harry and I didn’t want the big wedding everyone dreams of. We were content with signing a paper and vowing to love each other.
“I love you both, but you kill me everytime you remind me,” Mae exclaims with a small smile.
Everyone begins chatting about weddings, in what I assume to be an attempt to change our minds.
After a few more drinks and a long discussion about what our next gathering will be focused on, our guests excuse themselves and leave one by one. ————————————— Up stairs, Harry and I began to get ready for bed. He managed to tuck himself into bed already while I wiped all my makeup off.
“I don’t know if I should keep letting my bread grow?” He wondered out loud.
“Yes!” I agreed a little too loudly, Harry’s facial hair was the source of most of our disagreements. While he preferred to stick to shaven or minimal stubble, I preferred his full grown beard.
He knowingly smirked, “I’ll keep it if it means I get to spend all day with my head between your thighs.”
“You won’t hear me complainin’ “ I mumbled.
“I’m sorry, what was that? I couldn’t hear you?” He jokingly leaned foward in an attempt to look at me.
I turned off the light and walked toward our bed. Before sit at the end of it.
While crawling, “ I said I won’t complain about you spending all day between my thighs.”
He grinned again, “is that so?”
“Yup.”
I reached my hand under the covers and began to palm him over his sweatpants. He started placing kisses along my neck and jawline. When I gave a rather hard squeeze he groaned and looked at me, “I’m gonna cum in my pants.”
“And we couldn’t possibly have that hmm?”
“Absolutely not, I want to cum in your tight cunt.”
I moaned at his words and pulled him to get out from under the covers. He pushed me onto my back and began grinding his hips on mine. I reached for the bottom of his shirt and lifted it off him. While he broke away I began to strip off my bottoms and top.
He let out a growl when he saw I wasn’t wearing a bra and immediately began sucking on the area around my nipples.
“Harry..” I moaned
“Tell me baby” he replied, “tell me what you want daddy to do?”
“I want daddy to fuck me.” I boldly said
It’s light a switch flipped in Harry and he practically tore off my lace thong.
I  pulled his underwear off and his erection sprung up immediately.
I almost drooled at the sight of his red tip dripping pre cum. I laid back down while slowly pumping him.
He threw his head back and gave the most angelic moan I have ever heard. The sight of Harry completely subbmissive to my hand was quite possibly the biggest turn on.
He wasted in no time and lined himself up, kissing me roughly and slowly easing in.
“Oh fuck...” I threw my head back in pleasure.
No matter how many times we had sex, Harry’s size never failed to surprise me.
“Shit baby you’re so tight,” he bit his lip and began thrusting roughly.
Our pants and skin slapping was the only noise  in the room. A noise that had become a regular occurrence.
“Harder Harry.....fuck..”
“Yeah baby? You like rough? Like it when daddy fucks you with his cock?” He smirked and picked up his pace. He trailed his hand up from my thighs and wrapped them around my throat lightly.
“Mmmm....” was all I managed to get out.
He pressed his body on top of mine and bottomed out making me moan out loudly. I raked my nails down his back, knowing the marks would be there tomorrow.
He placed a kiss below my ear sending a wave of pleasure throughout me.
“Wanna get on top and ride my cock darlin’ ?” He whispered.
I nodded feverishly and pushed him to lay on his back.
I straddled him and grabbed his length lining him up, slowly sinking down. We both dropped our heads and moaned at the feeling of him being balls deep in me.
“Fuck, baby you’re cunt feels so good.”
“Mmm you like it?” I asked
“I fuckin love it.” I began moving my hips back and forth and then bouncing up and down; trying to find a rhythm that would push us over the edge.
My thighs began to burn so I placed my chest on Harry’s and he took that as his signal to do his part. He began thrusting up into me at a merciless pace. ‘Oh fuck’ was the only words I could seemingly get out, while Harry resorted to merely grunting.
I could feel him twitching inside me and knew he was close.
I began kissing all along his jaw and whispered in his ear, “cum in me, Harry, cum in your cunt.” This was all he needed as he bottomed out and groaned loudly.
I felt his thick ropes of cum coat inside of me. This pushed me over the edge, making me twitch on top of Harry and cry out.
I felt him soften but neither of us made any move. Our breaths were slowly going back to normal.
Finally I slowly eased off of him, whimpering at the feeling of being empty.
“Fuck, y/n, what the hell was that?” He chuckled.
“It was thank you, for everything.” I smiled.
“I love you.” “I love you.”

>>> the troublemakers have max’s place all to themselves for the first time. but they don’t have to worry about getting bored, because their minds already know what they want to do.
warning: smut +18. unprotected sex, don’t be silly wrap your willy! (max is on the pill be smart everybody!!!!)
a/n: this isn’t my favorite thing to write so i apologise if this is bad, but i wanted to give y’all nasty asses what you’ve been asking for for a long time, so have this.
“DAYDREAMING!!!!! Day dreaming into the night!!!!!!!” Max was yelling in the kitchen while waiting for the pasta to be ready. She had her phone on full volume and a spoon as her microphone.
“JJ!!!! You’re cheating!!!” Cody yelled from the living room.
“No I’m not!” Max heard her boyfriend yell back. She walked towards them to find the two of them sitting on the floor with cards all over the floor.
“What are you two doing?”
“Playing UNO, but JJ keeps cheating!”
“You two are sore losers, Cody you’re cheating too.” Max said and Cody opened his mouth offended while JJ looked surprised at him.
“What?! No I’m not!”
“Yes you are, you have cards in your back pocket.” She pointed at his brother and he let out a tiny sigh.
“Ha! You cheater!” JJ yelled. “I win, then.”
“No you don’t.” Max said and both of them looked at her confused. “You also have cards in your boots.”
“Fuck.” He whispered taking the cards off his boot.
“How did you know?” Cody asked getting up while looking surprised at his sister, who had a proud smile on her face.
“C’mon, I’m a pro at cheating. You’ll never catch me.” She said. “Now, come to the kitchen, dinner is ready.”
“Oh, I’m not eating here.” Cody said making Max turn to him.
“What? Why?”
“I’m going to Lucy’s.” He said and Max felt like a bucket full of cold water fell on her body.
“Who’s Lucy?” JJ asked with a grin.
“My girlfriend.” And... another bucket.
“So, you prefer to have Lucy’s dinner and not mine?” Max asked pretending to be hurt. “Got it.”
“Technically is not her dinner, it’s her parents.”
“Having dinner with her parents? It’s getting serious!” JJ said with proud smile and gave Cody a fist bump.
“I don’t know if it is, though.”
“Dude, you’re having dinner with her parents, it is.”
“But you had dinner with our parents before you even started dating.” Cody said and Max looked at JJ, who did the same while nodding.
“Yeah, well- we were just friends back then. He came as a friend.” Max said and Cody let out a tiny laugh.
“Yeah, friends.” He said sarcastically. That tone made JJ and Max stare at each other surprised at Cody, who patted their shoulders and left the room, leaving them with their tongues twisted.
“That little shit.” Max said shookingly once they arrived at the kitchen.
“Well, he’s right.” JJ said and Max never turned so quickly.
“What?”
“We kinda liked each other back then.”
“I know it took us a lot of time to actually realize that we liked each other because we’re dumb with a lot of issues, but- do you think we actually liked each other in that moment?” She was asking while taking the pasta to the plates.
“I don’t know. I cared about you, I thought you were hot and funny. And at one point I couldn’t stop thinking about you, so maybe.” He said without realising he did. As soon as Max turned to him, she had a little grin on her face. “What?”
“You couldn’t stop thinking about me?” She asked softly.
Max knew that, of course she did. They’re together now. But going back to those moments they weren’t and knowing that JJ thought about her, cared and have those thoughts in his mind that involved her, made her had butterflies on her stomach.
“Yeah.” JJ nodded and the moment Max let out a tiny laugh, JJ shook his head. “Don’t.”
“That’s kinda embarrassing, you had a crush on me, you had a crush on me.” She started singing.
“Dude, we’re together now.” JJ said but a laugh escaped his mouth.
“So? You had a crush on me when we were kids, I’m gonna still make fun of you. Otherwise, how am I gonna have fun?” She left the plates on the kitchen table and immediately felt some hands going around her waist and a body against her back.
“Do you want me to answer to that? Because I have one.” He gently kissed her neck and that made her skin shiver, but as soon as the sound of a door closing hit her ears, she turned around to face him and leave her hands around his shoulders.
“You know we can’t here, right?” She asked softly and JJ let out a tiny sigh before nodding. He didn’t say anything, instead he dropped his head on her chest to leave little kisses on her bare chest. She bit her lower lip because of the good sensation, trying to control every one of her new wild emotions. “You suck.” Max said in a whisper, making JJ let out a smile against her chest.
“Do you guys have to do this here?” Max heard Fred ask once he walked into the kitchen with a disgusted expression. JJ quickly let go of Max and turned around embarrassed of his prior actions and the fact that her big brother just saw them. Max bit his lower lip trying to not laugh at JJ and his nervous movements. “JJ, I don’t want to kick your ass, so please, don’t make me see how you put your hands all over my little sister.” Fred said giving a sip to his glass of water.
Max rolled her eyes. “Yeah, sure, because you know how to kick someone’s ass.”
“I did kick yours once.” Fred said proudly. That made JJ turned to Max surprised and for her to opened her mouth offended.
“I was four! But then I turned 5 and that was the last time you kicked my ass because I started to kick yours.”
Fred let out a tiny laugh while shaking his head, but instead of following Max’s conversation, he left the glass of water on the skin and said “I’m going out tonight.”
“What? Cody is going out too.” Max said and like a calling spell, Cody appeared on the kitchen.
“Yeah, I’m going to Lucy’s.”
“Traitor.” Max said and took off her tongue at him, who just did the same and then continued talking.
“Have you heard about mom and dad?” He asked looking at Fred.
“Yeah, mom’s test are all in order so they will come back tomorrow morning.” Fred responded. “So you two better be here when they come.” He said at his two little siblings, but more to Max since he stared at her longer.
“I will! You’re the one who’s going out- wait, Fred is going out and Cody is going out too, am I turning into the grandma sibling?” JJ let out a tiny laugh and she turned to him, which made them both realize at the same time, they had the house to themselves. They both tried to hide their grins and excited smiles since both of Max’s brothers were still in the room.
“Alright, I don’t want to be late, so I’m leaving now.” Cody said turning around followed by Fred.
“You two behave, please.” Fred said with his firm tone.
“Don’t worry, we will.” Max said but she knew her brother didn’t believe her at all, but instead of saying anything, he turned around and left the house with Cody by his side.
“So..” Max said once she heard the door closing.
“So..” JJ repeated getting closer to Max.
“My parents won’t come until tomorrow morning, Fred and Cody are out of the house-that means the house is empty.” Max pointed out while JJ was slowing nodding. “And the food is cold, it’s going to take a while before it’s hot again.”
“That means we have some time to kill.” JJ said wrapping his arms around Max and pulling her closer to his body. They both immediately felt the heat going to their skin, JJ’s fingers were tracing her back slowly while her hands were behind his neck, pulling his face even closer.
“Yes it does.” She said softly when a little smile escaped her lips. Without waiting another second, JJ closed the little space between them and kissed her lips with some strength. He wanted to feel her like he never did before, the taste on her lips had a little bit of cherry because of her chapstick and he loved that. The kiss was slow but had so much hotness in it that it didn’t took them much longer to get quicker with it. JJ slipped his tongue inside of her mouth and with his hand, grabbed her waist to pull her closer against his body.
Max felt his hot body on hers but she wanted more, so with slow hands while his lips were still on her, she traced with her fingers his stomach until she reached his pants. She broke the kiss to give him a smile and see the desire on his eyes. He definitely wanted her, there was no doubt on that. JJ was waiting for Max’s hand to go inside his pants since her hand was right there, but instead, Max kept going down outside of it, making slow circles with her index finger against his crotch area. “You’re such a tease.” JJ said in a whisper against her lips. She let out a grin and bit her lower lip, enjoying the fact that she had him on the palm of her hand.
With quick moves, JJ grabbed her thighs to lift her up and for her to wrap her legs around his waist. Pulling for another kiss, Max grabbed the back of his neck while JJ was confidently walking towards Max’s room. He had it memorised, so the walk came easy for him. Seconds later, Max’s room door was closed and JJ was sitting down on the bed while Max was in front of him, looking him up and down.
“Let me see that beautiful body of yours.” He said softly caressing her thigh. She let out a smile and gave JJ a kiss, she gently bit his lower lip before pulling away and slowly taking her shirt off by grabbing it from the bottom with her two hands.
“Now it’s your turn.” She said dropping her shirt on the floor. Her bare chest was now on his sight so he couldn’t take his eyes away from them, she let out a tiny grin noticing how mesmerised he was, even if he had seen them multiple times already.
“What if want you to take all of your clothes first this time?” He said letting his back rest on the bed while his hands were holding the back of his head. Max stayed in silence biting her lower lip. She wanted to give him what he wanted, but not just yet. She climbed into the bed and left her legs between his waist. She took his hand and made it grab her thigh, JJ didn’t know what Max was doing or where she wanted to get, but he was into it. Once he made the grip on her thigh stronger, she let out a smile and got closer to his face to leave a gentle kiss on his lips.
“Beg me to take my clothes off.” She said in a whisper against his lips. He let out a grin understanding what she was doing, but before he could say anything else Max started to move against his pants. She was slowly riding him to get him on her game. The way she moving on top of his covered dick made him let out a tiny moan, which lead to Max smiling and make the movement even more slowly and more strongly against his dick.
“Take off your clothes.” He said almost in a whisper trying to keep his firm tone on his voice, but the way she was riding on him with no shirt on, made his body tense against the bed and for him to fall for her touch.
“What was that?” She asked dropping her body even more into his, which lead to him letting out another moan. She felt a bulge growing against her short and that made her let out a long breath, enjoying it and a proud smile escaped her lips.
“Please.” He begged this time but Max wasn’t listening, she wanted more from him. Noticing that she wasn’t doing it, he sat down on the bed grabbing the back of her waist with his two hands, now it was him who was doing the movements with her body. “Please, take off your clothes so I can fuck you right now.” He said and that made Max let out a grin while her hands were going to her short to undo her buttons. With quick hands, JJ wrapped his arm around her waist and left a hand on the bed to pull her up and leave her back against the bed, to finally be on top of her and to remove her clothes once and for all.
Once her short was off her body JJ let out a grin and got closer with his face to her stomach to leave little kisses on it. Teasing her a little bit, he went down to her underwear and with his thumb started to caress it up and down. She let out a loud breath and closed her eyes, enjoying the feeling of it. Her body was starting to get hot against the bed, she opened her legs wider to leave more space for JJ. He layed on his chest while he was leaving slow kisses on her underwear, he looked up with his eyes to watch her face relax under his touch. He went back down and grabbed her underwear but stayed still to look at her once again. “Do you want this?” He asked so softly that Max felt his breath against her skin. She nodded biting her lower lip and that made JJ let out a grin, proud of the way he was making her feel. Once her underwear was off, he took his tongue towards her and started moving it in a circle on her clit, she arched her back because of the sudden feeling on her lower stomach. She started to feel the pleasure on her skin as JJ was moving his tongue up and down, side to side against her clit. He started to go slow once again to let her regain clontrol on her breathing but then continued moving the speed from slower to faster. It didn’t took long before Max started to feel the heat around her clit and her legs to close up and end up closer to JJ’s head. The pleasure she was feeling was so strongly that she grabbed his hair with strength once she let out a tiny moan when his speed got even faster. “Don’t stop, please.” She said almost in a whisper. JJ took a deep breath agains her skin to finish her off and give her the first orgasm of the night.
Feeling how JJ was making her finish, she grabbed her thigh and hold it with strength once the pleasure around her clit became even more stronger. She closed her legs even more feeling the palpitation get faster. “I’m coming JJ.” She said fast and it was followed by a loud moan. Once it was over, she let her back rest on the bed while her heavy breathing was the only sound on the room. While JJ was going closer to her face, he left a gentle kiss on her stomach before arriving to her lips to leave another kiss on them. She closed her eyes for a second but then when she opened them again, she grabbed his cheek and pulled him closer.
“I’m guessing you liked that.” JJ said and that made Max let out a tiny laugh.
“It’s your time to get your clothes off.” Max said in a firm time once her breathing was almost back to normal as well as her heart. JJ let out a tiny smile and sat down on the bed to get rid of his clothes. Max stared at him, enjoying the view of her boyfriend getting naked in front of her leaving on her sight his fit body. Finally, he got rid of his underwear and that made Max look down to see his boner. “Having fun?” She asked looking back at him which made JJ let out a laugh while shaking his head, before going back to be on top of her. She wrapped her legs around his waist to pull him even closer to her, she felt his dick moving against her lips before entering her body. She let out a tiny moan as he was slowing thrusting into her. Once fully inside, he let out a moan and left his head next to her neck while his arms were under her head, making his elbows hold his body on top of her.
He started moving slowly inside of her making them let out tiny moans. The sounds that were coming out of her mouths were the only noises on the room, making their bodies feel more hot and the pleasure to become more stronger. Max started to feel her walls palpitating against his dick while he was moving more faster. He started to go in and out of her once the speed became faster than before, the way he was hitting her skin started to make noise on the room. He made the thrust more deeper each time, making her moan louder and grab his arms with strength, trying to keep her body still under his.
His body was asking for more so he speeded the movement inside of her, making their bodies shake at the pleasure and the room to get filled with their moans. He started to moan against her ear, making her shiver at the noise that was entering her head. Max noticed his body getting weaker on top of her so she gently bit his ear and let out heavy breath against his skin, knowing how much he liked that. “Are you about to come baby?” She asked softly against his ear. He started to moan making his movements as fast as he body was letting him. Max closed her eyes with strength felling her palpitations getting faster and faster as the seconds were passing. “Finish for me, JJ.” She said with a shaky voice getting her nails into his back, as she was feeling the orgasm coming through. JJ was feeling it too, as his dick was coming in and out of her, his body started to shake a little bit against hers and when it came, he let out a loud moan and left his body rest on her while he was still inside of her.
“Fuck.” He said with his heavy breathing and his chest going quickly up and down. He slowly got out of her to drop his body next to hers. He turned to her to see her eyes closed as she was trying to relax and bring her breathing back to normal. He got closer to her face to leave a gentle kiss on her cheek. “You’re so fucking beautiful.” Max opened her eyes and let out a tiny smile, she grabbed his cheek to give him a kiss on the lips and then go back to relax on the bed.
“You don’t look so bad.” She grabbed his hair and let her fingers go through it. Then, with her index finger, she grabbed his necklace to pull him closer and whisper against his lips. “You know what?” Max asked and JJ nodded, waiting for her answer. “I really want that pasta right now.” She said, making him let out a tiny laugh and letting her know he agreed with her by leaving another kiss on her lips.
>>> darling, you’re the only one that makes me see starts in my ceiling. I’ll do whatever you want, as long as you make me yours tonight.

Roommates (K.NJ)
Warnings : mentions of drinking, partying, swearing, mentions of sex
Synopsis : unable to afford rent alone, she looks for a roommate. he’s perfect on paper, but seems to avoid her in person. after their friend groups mix for a night out, she finds out he finds her beautiful. she never expected to befriend him, nor did she expect to fall for her handsome roommate.
Word Count : 3281
After graduating university, I moved into a 3-bedroom duplex, sure with my new job I could afford it by myself. But after a few months, I found myself struggling to keep up with bills and rent and soon put out an ad for a roommate. I’d prefer to live with another girl, but after meeting all the girls that applied, I decided to expand my search to include guys as well.
           Kim Namjoon seemed like the perfect applicant on paper and seemed fairly decent when he came to check out the place. He didn’t ask any questions, calmed all the concerns I had about living with a stranger, and met all my expectations for a roommate. He seemed to be the obvious choice, so he moved in a couple days later.
           I didn’t expect to become friends with the guy as the two of us were quite different, but I didn’t expect him to completely avoid me either. He kept to himself, either leaving the place for days at a time, or staying in his room, only leaving to get food and use the washroom. At first it was nice; I was worried about him making any unwanted advances and it really calmed all my anxieties. But after a while, it seemed like he was avoiding me like the plague. I tried to talk to him a few times, but he would shrug it off and ignore my existence.
           “How’s living with a stranger?” My best friend, Jimin, asked when he came for a visit a couple months after Namjoon moved in. “Have you guys hooked up yet?” I choked on my drink, completely taken back by his question.
           “God no! I’ve tried being friendly, but the man avoids me like I don’t even exist!” I said after I caught my breath from my coughing fit. “I guess I don’t mind it though. It’s almost like I still live alone, just with extra money.” The front door slammed open soon after I said that and Namjoon came stomping in with the angriest look on his face. He paused when he entered the living room and saw Jimin sitting beside me on the couch.
           “If you two are going to fuck later, keep it down. I’m going to bed.” Before either of us could say anything, Namjoon stormed up the stairs and slammed his bedroom door.
           “Who pissed in his cornflakes?” Jimin asked, his eyes wide as he looked in the direction of the stairs Namjoon just stormed up.
           “Who goes to bed at 3 in the afternoon?” I stared at the time on my phone with my brows furrowed together, wondering if something happened while he was gone.
           “You’re sure he isn’t some criminal?” Jimin jokingly asked and I playfully slapped his arm and giggled. But I really didn’t know what he did for a living. He pays rent on time and helps with the bills, so I never really questioned anything. “Jin is wondering if you’re coming out with us tonight.” Jimin was typing away at his phone, most likely texting Jin, asking what the plan was.
           “Yeah, I have tomorrow off so why not.” Jimin nodded and continued to text Jin. “Who’s all going?”
           “All I know for sure is me, you, Jin and Taehyung. Jin said he invited someone from his work who might come and bring his friends too, so I’m not too sure.” I nodded.
           “I hope the guy he invited from work is Hoseok. I met him a couple times and he’s super fun! And really hot.” Jimin laughed and shook his head at me. “What? I can appreciate his beauty!”
           “I never said you couldn’t. You just haven’t shown interest in anyone since Jackson.” I rolled my eyes.
           “First, we promised never to bring him up. Second, I’m not interested in Hoseok, I just think he’s attractive.” Jimin held his hands up in surrender before getting up to leave.
           “I’m going to go meet up with Jin for a while. I’ll see you tonight.”
           After Jimin left, I decided to get ready so whenever they decided to show up, I wouldn’t be holding us back from our night out. Jin always complained about how long it took me to get ready, as if he didn’t also take forever.
           After showering and doing my hair and makeup, I was left with deciding what to wear. I had a couple outfit choices laid out on my bed. I kept picking them up and holding them up to myself while looking in the mirror, but I just couldn’t decide. I was just about to call Jimin when I heard a knock at my bedroom door. I threw the two dresses I had in my hands onto my bed and went to open my door, expecting either Jimin or Taehyung to be on the other side, but was surprised to see Namjoon standing there, holding two coffees.
           “I wanted to apologize for earlier. I had a bad day and took it out on you and your boyfriend.” He handed one of the coffees to me. I looked down at the drink and then up at him. “Oh uh, they messed up my drink and gave me one for free. Figured you’d like it.” He quickly said, and I didn’t let it slip that the two coffees were obviously very different. The one in his hand was hot, whereas the one he handed me was iced. I just smiled and thanked him. “The long-sleeved black dress would look good on you. Go with that one.” He said before I could shut my door and then quickly walked away before I could ask what he meant. I looked at the different dresses on my bed and smiled to myself when it put it together. And he wasn’t wrong.
           “Hey, you sexy motherfucker, worldwide handsome has arrived!” I heard from downstairs as I was putting the final touches on my outfit. I rolled my eyes at the dumb nickname Jin gave himself and quickly opened my bedroom door to head out. Namjoon was heading back to his room from the bathroom, and I asked if he wanted to come with.
           “My friends and I already have plans.” I nodded and told him to have a good night and rushed down the stairs.
           “Damn girl, where have you been hiding this!” Jin gushed when he saw me. I playfully slapped him as I slid on a pair of strappy black heels to go with my dress. It was really a thin strapped crop top and a skirt, with a long-sleeved sparkly mesh dress on top that really showed off all my curves, and my legs. Just as we were about to leave and get in the car, Hoseok came barging in.
           “I thought we were meeting you there?” Jin asked. Hoseok looked between the two of us, confusion written on his face.
           “Does Namjoon live here?” He asked after a minute of silence. I smiled to myself at how small a world we live in and nodded. “Namjoon, let’s go!” Hoseok yelled, and I took that moment to check him out without him noticing. Jin elbowed me in the side and told me we should get going before Taehyung thinks we’re hooking up.
           “He really won’t ever let us live that down, hey.” Jin and I shared a laugh as we told Hoseok we’d meet them at the club. “Hey thots, we ready to get lit?!” I exclaimed as I got into the car. Taehyung rolled his eyes at me, but I could see the smile he was trying to hide.
           “That was fast for the two of you. Just a quicky this time?” I rolled my eyes and leaned forward to playfully slap him as he was driving.
           “It was one time! And it was years ago.”
           “Still weird.” I shook my head and leaned back in my seat.
           We got a booth before Hoseok and his friends arrived and joined us. Namjoon’s eyes widened when he saw me, and Jimin glared at him, obviously still upset about what happened earlier. “Hey, I uh, already apologized to Y/N, but I guess I should apologize to you too. I shouldn’t have snapped like that.” Hoseok’s two other friends looked between Jimin and Namjoon, wondering what happened. “It was Y/N’s place first, and you two are dating so I should be nicer.” I was so caught up in him giving me a coffee that I completely forgot to correct him on that fact, but it still made me laugh. Jin and Taehyung burst out laughing while Jimin just sat there with a dumbfounded look on his face.
           “Oh my god, Y/N and Jimin dating.” Jin laughed.
           “That’s the best joke I’ve ever heard!” Taehyung added, bent at the waist as tears streamed down his face from how hard he was laughing. I felt bad for Namjoon as he stood there, confused as to what was so funny. His friends eventually put two and two together and shook their heads.
           “Y/N and I aren’t dating.” Jimin finally said. Namjoon went completely red in the face and I found myself smiling at how cute it was. For the first time since he moved in, I actually got a good look at him and honestly I couldn’t stop myself from staring. I’m not sure if it was the dim lighting, or the way he was dressed, but he was really handsome.
           “Oh, sorry.” He quickly said. “I’m going to go get a drink.” I quickly stood from the booth and followed him as Hoseok introduced his two friends to the rest of the group.
           “Hey!” I said when I caught up to him. “Sorry about my friends. Also sorry I didn’t correct you earlier, it slipped my mind.” He shrugged his shoulders, saying it wasn’t a big deal. “Jimin has been my best friend since diapers, basically my brother. That’s why Jin and Taehyung found it so funny.” Namjoon nodded.
           “I don’t need your life story.” My heart sank when he said that. I thought we were finally getting somewhere with our relationship, but I guess he was just the kind of guy who couldn’t not right a wrong.
           “Noted.” I ordered mine and my friend’s drinks, as well as shots for the table, told the bartender which table, and turned to walk away before Namjoon made his order. I plopped down beside Jin who immediately wrapped his arm around me. “Sorry, I ran off before I could get your names.” I smiled at the two strangers sitting across from me.
           “I’m Jungkook, and mister grumpy pants there is Yoongi.”
           “Well I hope no one minds, but I ordered shots for the table.” Just as I said that Namjoon came back with the bartender and the two handed out the drinks and shots that had been ordered. I held up my shot glass and everyone else followed suit. “Let’s get litty titty!”
           “You’re not allowed to make the toast ever again.” Jin said as we all downed our first round of shots. Namjoon was sat directly across from me, staring at me as if I kicked his dog. Conversations started around the table, but Namjoon just sat there, staring at me. I downed my drink in record time while making eye contact with him. I leaned across the table and motioned for Namjoon to do the same.
           “You keep staring at me like that, I’ll think you’re secretly in love with me.” I said just loud enough for him to hear and sat back. “Jin, come get another drink with me!” I slid my hand into his and he happily obliged, asking around the table if anyone else wanted something.
           At some point during the night, I convinced some of the guys to hit the dance floor with me. Namjoon obviously stayed behind, rolling his eyes at my invitation. “Don’t take it to heart.” Hoseok told me as a group of us made our way to the dance floor. “He doesn’t know how to act around girls he thinks are pretty.” I smiled at the insinuation that Namjoon thought I was pretty.
           Jin took my hand as soon as we hit the dance floor and the two of us began dancing together. I could feel the alcohol starting to hit me and began to let loose. “Your friends are betting on whether or not you and Jin are going to hookup tonight.” Hoseok told me as we made our way to the bar to get more drinks before heading back to the table for a rest.
           “They do that every time.” His eyes widened. “Jin and I hooked up once a couple years ago and now the two of them, Taehyung especially, won’t let us live it down.” He nodded in understanding.
            I sat beside Namjoon, considerably more drunk than when I left the table. He looked at me with the same annoyed look he’s been giving me all night, but I didn’t let it bother me this time. “A little birdy told me you think I’m pretty.” I slurred out and laughed as his eyes widened and he suddenly got nervous.
           “I don’t know who told you that, but they’re lying.” His words hurt more than I’d like to admit. I don’t know why I want him to think I’m pretty, but I do. I stood up to move to the other side of the booth and sit beside Taehyung, but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back down beside him. “I-I think you’re beautiful.” He stuttered out, obviously not nearly as drunk as me. With my elbows on the table, I put my head in my hands and turned my body to look up at him.
           “You look really handsome tonight, Namjoon.” I could see a bit of pink dust his cheeks as he smiled. “Oh! You have a dimple.” I said as I poked it and brought my face closer to his to get a better look. He swatted my hand away and looked away from me. “You’re so mean to me.” I pouted. I reached out and placed my hands on his cheeks and made him look at me. His eyes were wide as I studied his face with a pout on my face.
           “What are you doing?” He asked, reaching up and taking my hands in his, removing them from his face.
           “Memorizing your handsome face, since you always hide from me.”
           “Sorry.” I smiled at him.
           “Come dance with me!” I stood up again and held my hand out to him, catching the attention of the other two sitting at the table, specifically Yoongi. Namjoon lowered my arm, denying my request. “Please! Just one song.” Yoongi smirked at Namjoon who seemed embarrassed.
           “I’m not much of a dancer.”
           “I’m not either!” I exclaimed and grabbed his hand and pulled him out of the booth. He didn’t resist much as I pulled him to the dance floor, earning a surprised look from Hoseok who was having a mini dance battle with Jimin. “Don’t be weird about it.” I laughed as I started dancing. Namjoon was very stiff and awkwardly smiled at me. “Let loose.” I grabbed his hands and started dancing with him, trying to get him to enjoy himself. I got lost in the song and Namjoon eventually let go of my hands and just watched me.
           “I’m going to get a drink; do you want anything.” Namjoon whispered in my ear after a couple songs passed.
           “Surprise me.” I continued to dance while I watched him walk away. I didn’t expect him to actually get me a drink, but he returned a few minutes later and handed me the same drink I’d been drinking all night.
           After a few more songs and a couple more drinks, I had definitely surpassed my limit, and Namjoon could tell. I was slumped over on the table, barely able to keep my head up. “Let’s head home.” He said softly, bending down in front of me, telling me to hop on his back. I loosely wrapped my arms around his neck, and he stood, reaching back to support my legs. Jin, Jimin, Jungkook and Hoseok were heading back to the table as we were leaving. “I’m going to take her home. The uber is outside.” He explained to the group before leaving for the door.
           “Please don’t hate me.” I whispered as he walked outside and towards the waiting car.
           “I couldn’t ever.” He replied, setting me in the backseat, and ran to the other side. For some reason, his words caused my heart to flutter. I didn’t expect to start crushing on my quiet roommate, but somehow it happened.
           The next morning I woke up with one of the worst headaches I’ve ever experienced. As I sat up in my bed, I saw some Advil and a glass of water on my side table and smiled. What happened last night wasn’t a dream.
           “I’m making breakfast, if you want.” Namjoon said as I descended down the stairs. I smiled to myself as I looked at him standing in the kitchen with an apron on. I made my way over to the barstools that sat beside the island and took a seat, just watching him. “Uh, what are you doing?” He asked, a blush rising to his cheeks like many times last night.
           “I don’t know how long you’re going to be nice to me like this, so I’m going to bask in it.” I giggled and he just rolled his eyes at me, feigning annoyance.
           “You’re annoying.” He scoffed, turning back to whatever he was cooking.
           “Yeah, but you still think I’m pretty.” I teased. He didn’t even bother turning around when he said his next words.
           “I already told you that was a lie.” I stood up from the barstool and walked behind him and wrapped my arms around his torso, taking in his scent and feeling the butterflies in my stomach take flight yet again. I could feel him tense under my touch, but as quickly as he tensed, he relaxed into my embrace. “I think you’re beautiful.” He repeated his statement from last night, and I wouldn’t believe him if he said he couldn’t hear how hard my heart was pounding.
           “Go on a date with me today.” I said as I let go of him, looking up to see his reaction. He was pretending it didn’t affect him as he continued cooking, but I could see the blush on his cheeks and I smiled, knowing I made him just as nervous as he made me.
           “A date?” He questioned, not even bothering to look at me.
           “Yes. A date. With me. Like bowling or something. Something fun though!” He took the pan off the stove and started plating the food, still not giving me an answer, which caused my nerves to start to get the best of me. Still, I refused to take it back. I wanted to go on a date with him and I wasn’t one to sit around and wait. Still silent, he walked to the dining table, placing both plates on it and finally taking time to look at me.
           “You couldn’t have waited for me to ask you?” He chuckled, causing all my worries to subside as I walked to the dining table and taking a seat.
           “I go after what I want.” I shrugged. “And I want you.”
           “Well, at least let me plan it.” I agreed to his condition and the two of us ate in silence, glancing up at each other every once in a while with shy smiles.

(love) is a heartache
@drarrymicrofic prompt: hope is a heartache - léon
let it be known that harry goes through life purely on vibes. half of his reasons why for every decision at his big age are “idk imma just hope for the best”
ao3
People’s hearts twinge sometimes. For Draco, he can barely remember the last time he doesn’t have these twinges. It’s pretty normal at this point.
“No, it’s not,” Pansy says. She’s a Healer, so she’s probably right. But Draco prefers to ignore that.
“Leave it be,” Draco murmurs, lips against her scalp, “I’m fine. Say, are you free tomorrow?”
“Yeah. You want to go somewhere?”
“Mm. Sleep.”
They go out the next morning, Pansy in thick makeup and Draco practically drunk under nine layers of Charms. The air is a bit humid, which seems to get worse when the bustling street intensifies in volume into a roaring din. Pansy pulls him under an awning, yanking at his sleeve a bit to try out her disgusting sugary coffee. She always does this whenever she wants to take his attention away from something, which means he just has to look at exactly where she’s doesn’t want him to. As his lips wrap around her lipstick-stained straw, he glances up.
Across the street, a couple strolls through a gushing crowd. Fiery red hair, airy laughter, a pale arm wrapped around her fiancé’s waist. Curls of black, sleek spectacles, a protective palm on his fiancee’s shoulder. They make the perfect picture, a vibrant oil painting. Their existence is formed from bold strokes of sunlight and starburst kisses, with the focal point being a shock of phthalo green and cadmium lemon, two minute specks that make all the difference. As all good paintings do, they pin the viewer on the spot, as if the viewer himself is a thing to behold. Then they shift away.
The exhibit moves forward and out of sight. It’s closing time, the viewer has overstayed his welcome.
Something leaps in Draco’s chest and splatters on the floor of his stomach. Placing her hand over his heart, Pansy frowns at him. She doesn’t ask why Potter stared at someone who looked like a stranger to him. Only tells him to start finding answers.
Months later, on the most awaited day in recent Wizarding history, there’s a knock on Draco’s door.
He throws on a sweater, and a throw, too, for good measure. Ambling to the door, he checks the mail slot before peeking through the peephole. Nobody but a package is outside. Draco hums and unlocks his door, crouching down the moment it opens. What feels like soft satin brushes against his cheek, cool and smooth. With a flash, a pair of shiny dress shoes appear before him.
“Draco.”
Draco peers up as he rises, hands around the package. Potter has his maddening Invisibility Cloak slung over his arm, his roguish charm heightened by a perfectly fitted three-piece suit. A tiny posy is pinned on his left lapel, muted green hellebores with a few sprigs of privet berries. He’s dressed like a man in love.
Draco feels something he hasn’t felt in months at the sight. He’s trained himself to suppress it the moment it showed itself and has been relatively successful until now. The sting, without warning, bursts from within his chest, calling forth a slight wince. Potter’s brows furrow.
"How do you know where I live?"
“How long has this been going on?”
Draco frowns. “Pardon?”
“That,” Potter gestures at Draco’s chest. “The heartache.”
He rears back. What the hell is he supposed to say to that? At Potter’s unchanging expression, Draco shoves his hair out of his face with a quiet huff and puts a hand on the doorknob.
“It’s none of your business. Please leave.”
“It is, actually,” Potter stops the closing door with one arm.
“Excuse me? We haven't had a proper conversation in more than a decade and suddenly you want to act like we're friends? Leave, now.”
“Listen to me. How can it not be my business when I feel it, too?”
“Check with a Healer, then. If you can put past grudges aside, I can hand you Pansy Parkinson’s business card,” Draco grits through his teeth, pushing against the door with his entire body, his throw slipping to the ground.
“Draco, stop, I already know, stop.”
“Know what? No, I don't care. Leave at once, else I’d alert the Aurors.”
A rough slam sends Draco staggering back. Potter pants, hard lines on his face. His chest heaves under his crisp white shirt, its top two buttons unclasped, and he steps over the threshold, closing the door.
“You think they’d believe you?”
The pain shoots from his chest to the rest of his body, and for several seconds, his lungs wouldn’t work. He whips his head away from Potter, who groans and sags against the wall.
“I told you to leave.”
“I’m sorry, that was a shitty thing to say,” Potter says immediately, sweat dotting his temples.
After an uncomfortable pause, clearing his throat, he picks up the near-forgotten package from the carpet. His hand feels around the outline of the object within, rectangular and heavy. Glancing at Draco, he says hoarsely. “I know why you bought this book.”
“Know this, know that, you know nothing,” Draco lunges forward, only for Potter to twist out of the way and raise the package out of his reach.
“The Life-long Burden of Dark Curses: A Caution by Elise Arrowlane, limited edition,” he says, unbothered by Draco’s slackened jaw. “You ordered it from the new bookstore on Diagon months ago. You were small and old and grey, but I recognized you. I always could.”
“Okay,” Draco sneers, “so you’re a stalker. Old news. Anything else?”
“There’s no need to order one. I would’ve borrowed it from Hermione if you had only asked,” Potter says. “Instead, I got curious and read it for myself. That’s how I connected the dots about the heartache, how I realized we’ve both had it since that day years ago.”
“Oh, the day you slashed me into ribbons and almost cut through my heart?” Draco clenches his jaw.
Being able to shout this ugly kind of truth into the perpetrator’s face feels oddly liberating. That is, if liberation also comes with a specific kind of agony that makes Draco want to fall to his knees.
“Dark Magic leaves a mark on both the wizard and their victim, doesn’t it? No need for a book to tell us that,” Potter says, the harsh afternoon glow of him gentled by the soft lamplight in Draco’s hallway. “In certain cases, it even leaves a link. A connection.”
Draco bites the inside of his cheek and looks away. The only consequence from that horrid night was his fucked up heart and nothing else, nothing at all. Whatever Potter is insinuating, he hates it. He hates this. He hates him.
“How are you so sure there’s a connection.”
“I wasn’t,” Potter says. “The Healers said it’s a health thing I developed after the War and I just needed to avoid strenuous activity. I didn’t think much of it, but then I read the book and realized that it usually flared up whenever you watched me.”
Scoffing, Draco turns and stalks into the kitchen. Walking past the boiling kettle, he throws a cabinet door open and grabs a mug, his hand trembling.
“Interesting how my health suffers when I see the bastard who quite literally carved me open.”
“I was eating dinner when I thought I was going to die of a heart attack at 23,” Potter continues. Draco pulls the drawers out, unable to find a single bag of tea for several excruciating moments. “The next day, I was reading about your mother’s death on the Daily Prophet. That was the first sign.”
Grabbing a rag and wetting it, Draco wipes the countertop even as he’s just done so last night.
“When Ginny saw you on the street during our date and extended her hand toward you, you shook it. But your heart ached.
“I saw you looking at the picture of Ginny and I kissing on the front page of Witch Weekly. Your hair was brown and your back was curved, but I saw you. Your heart ached.
“When I announced my engagement to her on the Battle of Hogwarts’s 10th Anniversary, you were clapping along with everyone else. But your heart ached.”
Draco throws the rag on the counter. The kettle whistles, a piercing sound. “What’s your point? Are you here purely to flaunt your relationship and imply that I’m in love with Ginevra Weasley? If so, I got it. Thank you so very much, it’s been enlightening. Now get out.”
“The point is,” Potter says, lifting the kettle off the burner to pour it into Draco’s mug, placing his tea bag in, “unless the article about you being gay was wrong, Ginny isn’t the one you’re in love with.”
“What arti—” Draco stops. “That was years ago.”
His sexuality was leaked to some irrelevant gossip rag, not even making the front page. Nobody noticed, nothing changed, and it hasn’t entered his mind in what feels like forever until Potter reminds him.
“I remember.”
“You—” Draco frowns. His eyes strain on the cup of tea until they hurt. He squeezes them shut, sighing. “It doesn’t prove anything. Perhaps I’m jealous of my childhood nemesis having a better life than me, ever thought of that?”
“Yeah,” Potter says, “I’ve thought about this a lot. Which is why I’m here. To make sure.”
Draco takes it in, then, unable to help himself, curls his lips at Potter and his attire. At his artfully gelled hair, his hanging bow tie, the elegant boutonniere on the lapel of his dark blue suit. His empty ring finger.
“Couldn’t you have chosen a better date to make sure? Preferably before your wedding day?”
Potter steps closer. A respectable distance away, but closer.
“I could’ve, but I spent most of those days in denial. Then the dots connected and I couldn’t deny it anymore, so I decided to just go through with the wedding regardless, be with the woman I loved. Hoped that maybe the odd emotions I had would go away,” he shrugs, raising his eyes to meet Draco’s. “Saw Ginny at the end of the aisle and, well, I couldn’t stop thinking that it should’ve been someone else. All this time, I’ve thought that she didn’t feel… right in my arms, but I pushed it down. And there she was in that white dress.
“Seeing that today was the last straw. I had to leave.”
Draco’s breath catches in his throat. Swallowing it down, he grabs his mug, scooping out the tea bag just to have something to do. He takes a sip without blowing, ignoring its scalding heat.
“That was stupid.”
“Yeah.”
“You’re so fucking stupid,” Draco can feel a headache building. “That was a horrible decision. I never imagined you—you!—out of all people, could be this irresponsible. What the fuck.”
“You’re right.”
“Of course I am. Merlin, that poor fucking woman. If your purpose here is to make me feel bad for Ginevra and all 300 of her relatives for once in my life, you’ve succeeded, congratulations.”
“I’m sorry.”
“Don’t say that to me, say that to—oh, you’d do what you want no matter what I say, wouldn’t you?”
“Depends on the situation.”
“‘Depends on the situation,’ he says,” Draco mocks, getting a carton of milk from the fridge to save his bitter, bitter tea. Potter doesn’t reply. Stirring the milk in, Draco lets out a heavy sigh.
“What do you want me to do about this?” He says. “I didn’t make you run out of your own wedding. If you expect me to take the blame for your inane decisions, the first person I Floo wouldn’t be the Aurors, but Ginevra Weasley herself.”
A small smile graces Potter’s lips. “I don’t expect anything from you but honesty.”
Draco squints.
“And how will you know if what I say is a lie? Will you reject my genuine answer if it’s not what you want to hear?”
“That won’t be a problem,” Potter says. “I trust your heart will speak the truth for us both.”
There’s a pang in Draco’s chest, and judging from the twitch of Potter’s brow, he can feel it too. Not another word is said, the two men merely facing each other from across a tiny kitchen, considering. Draco can feel the warmth of sunlight beaming through the little window and coating his nape as he leans against the sink, earl grey on his tongue. Lovely citric notes of bergamot drift up his nose. He closes his eyes. What to do, what to do.
Weightless oxfords clack against the yellowed tiles, clear and bright in Draco’s ears. Fabric rustles as Potter slips a hand into his pocket only to retrieve it a second later. Draco lets himself be cornered, barely glancing at the wool-clad arms caging either side of his waist. A clink catches his attention, however, and he tilts his head to the left.
Millimeters beside Draco’s hand on the counter, glinting in the sun, is a wedding band. Draco knows Potter and Ginevra’s in and out, has examined the picture on that day’s issue of the Daily Prophet more times than he should have. He knows the marquise droplets of Ginevra’s gems and the chevron curve of her ring, the blankness of Potter’s own band a dream and a question in his mind.
The band that’s resting on the counter is different. Rustic gold and a fissure in the middle, the fertile earth splitting open to reveal a stream of diamonds, a sparkling river. Draco sets his mug to the side and holds the ring up close, his finger smoothing over the grooves of its texture.
“Did you make a stop at a jewelry store before breaking into my home?” He asks.
“No,” Harry murmurs. Draco looks at him in surprise. “I’ve had this with me for months.”
A pause.
“I thought you said you were in denial.”
“I was, but I knew, somewhat, that I wanted someone else,” Harry’s head lowers, slow and careful, until his forehead rests against Draco’s shoulder. “I told myself that I just liked the way it looked, had to get it in case I didn’t want the other ring anymore. But I got it a size smaller. Been carrying it in my pocket ever since.”
Draco’s heart throbs and throbs. Large hands circle his waist, bunching up the back of his sweater and pressing him close, chest to chest. A blanket of pure heat envelops his body as he breathes in the timeless saffron and neroli of cologne, half-lidded eyes pinned on the band he’s given. Oh, dear, he thinks, and again when it settles at the base of his ring finger with ease, as if it belongs there and never left. Oh, dear.
