what if duchess!reader is kidnapped... just thinking..
I love your thinking đď¸đď¸ fyi writing heavy action is not my thing at all as Iâve found out while writing this đ CW: sexual assault (not rape)
Dukedom au masterlist
The day had started like any other. Youâd awoken to the soft, warm light filtering through the curtains, greeted by the warmth of your bed and the quiet hum of the household waking up around you. You were the only one still in bed; Johnny and Simon wake up the earliest every day, then Kyle, then John, and you deduce that you mustâve not had much to do on your agenda if they had let you sleep in.
Your heart sighed, happy. They cared for you so much, you adored them.
Everything was normal from then on. You showered and dressed, had breakfast with Johnny and Kyle, got stolen kisses from Simon and John.
Everything was normal.
Safe.
Until it wasnât.
The memory of how it all happened is fragmented- too fast, too sudden. Youâd gone to the gardens for a stroll, accompanied by one maid and a single guard, a routine walk to clear your mind, get some fresh air in such nice weather. But the ambush was swift. Shadows that hadnât been there before moved, voices hissed sharp commands, and then- pain. A sharp, stinging pain at the back of your head before everything went dark.
When you awoke, you were bound. Cold stone walls and floors surrounded you, damp and suffocating, the air stale with the scent of decay. The faint flicker of candlelight illuminated the room, but no one was there at first. You couldnât even tell how long you had been out. Fear threatened to choke you, but you forced yourself to breathe. To think.
John, Simon, Kyle, Johnny- theyâll save you. They will. That thought kept you from truly panicking, even if your heart thundered against your chest and your body trembled, tears in the corners of your eyes.
The news hit John like a thunderclap. His ears rang, and he almost didnât believe the words at first.
âSheâs gone,â Kyle reported, his usually calm demeanor shattered. His fists were clenched, slammed on Johnâs desk, and his voice shook despite his best efforts to remain steady. âThe guards- dead. The maid survived, but barely. It was an ambush. Everyone is tightening up the security right now, but- theyâve taken her.â
John didnât stop to ask questions. Orders were barked, search parties sent out, guards work at hard. Simon was already armored and saddling his horse before John had even finished speaking. Johnny abandoned his kitchen entirely, storming out with sleeves rolled up, his eyes sharp and lethal in a way no one had ever seen before. And Kyle was barely holding himself together in his anger, but there was a fire burning behind his eyes that promised hell for whoever dared lay a hand on you.
None of them stopped to think. None of them cared about anything other than getting you back.
You werenât sure how long youâd been there, cold and the ropes digging into your skin painfully when the door creaked open.
The man who entered reeked of sweat and desperation, and his grin made your stomach churn. It took strength not to gag as he neared you, grimy fingers grabbing your chin roughly. âThe Duke will pay handsomely for you,â he sneered. âAnd if he doesnât⌠well, Iâm sure we can find other uses for you.â
The smirk that (dis)graced his face then alarmed you, even more so when he reached to rip off the fabric of your dress, around your collar.
You flinchd, terror clawing at your throat. The tears rolled down your cheeks then, and yet he only laughed, his rancid breath wafting over your face.
âWonder how much heâll pay for you, eh?â He mused. âPretty face and probably a pretty cunt too, donât think the Duke will let ya go that easily.â
You forced yourself to speak calmly, even if your voice trembled. Shame clawed at you, at his words and the way he talked about you. âYou wonât get a single coin from him,â you said, steadier than you felt. âHeâs a man who doesnât bargain with scum.â
The chair youâd been tied to groaned as you threw your weight sideways suddenly, toppling it over and surprising him just long enough for you to maybe- just- knock him out, something to get his hands off you-
But you didnât have to.
Because then, there was shouting. The door burst open, and the first thing you saw was Simonâs familiar, towering frame filling the entrance. Blood smeared his armor, and his eyes through his mask- normally sharp and calculating- were wild with rage.
âDonât you fucking touch her.â
The sounds of swords clanging rang out from outside, and your captor crumpled to the ground before he could even react and you were so glad it was too dark for you to see his blood coating Simonâs sword; the smell alone had you gagging. Though it was forgotten as Simon rushed to cradle you.
Then they were there- all of them. Johnâs hands shook with rage as he knelt beside you, pulling at your bindings with urgency. Kyle hovered just behind him, dagger stained, and Johnny was at your other side, pressing his hands to your face, whispering reassurances even as his voice wavered.
âYouâre safe, love. Weâve got you. Weâve got you.â
The ride back home was quiet, save for your stressed weeping. They didnât ask questions- not yet. Instead, they focused on keeping you warm, wrapped in Johnâs coat as Kyleâs arms held you steady in the carriage. Johnny never stopped touching you, even if it was just to brush his fingers against your hand.
They did not stop your tears; they let you sob it all out, as much as possible. The fear, the panic, everything, and you simply clung to them.
It was only once you were home, surrounded by the familiarity of your rooms and you were calmer, that the questions came.
âAre you hurt, my love?â John asked first, his voice gentle but commanding. âDid theyâŚâ He couldnât even finish the question, his throat tightening.
âNo,â you said quickly, voice hoarse, reaching for his hand. âThey didnât. I swear it.â
Relief flooded his face, but it was fleeting. Kyle had already left to prepare a bath, and Simon stood by the door like a sentry. Johnny sat at your feet, eyes locked on yours.
âYe need to eat,â he suddenly said, as if being reminded. His face softened when he caught the way your lips twisted. âI ken ye probably have no appetite, but ye gotta hold something down, lass.â
They didnât leave you alone that night. Not even for a moment, and they were the ones to help you shower and dress. They held you close, touches gentle, soothing. Simonâs dogs were there, as well, napping by the fireplace.
And when you woke up in the middle of the night, trembling from the remnants of fear, it was Simonâs voice that soothed you.
âYouâre safe, darling,â he whispered against your hair, arms wound around you like a cocoon of safety and security. âNo one will ever touch you again.â
You believed him. You did. And yet- you still clung to him, to all of them, desperate for any touch that would remind you where you are.
And they were all too willing to soothe your fears (they needed it as much as you did, anyways).

Wrong.
If you had to use any word to describe the situation you found yourself in, it wouldâve been wrong.
Everything felt out of place: the laughs, the chattering, even the clinking of champagne glasses. It was all too loud, almost as if everyone was trying to fill the void that loomed in the air.
Though, now that you thought about it, âfakeâ actually fit the scene better. To your ears, the jokes that rang across the motorhome were nothing but a lame attempt to lighten up the mood, every word sounding empty and meaningless. Each one of the persons crowding the room were just actors playing their part in a show theyâd been rehearsing for months, and between them stood the main character, the best liar of them all.
Carlos had been smiling the entire night, going along with the setup for some reason that your brain really couldnât seem to grasp. What was the point of celebrating his departure, even worse when the people he was hugging with such warmth were the same ones whoâd dropped him from the team to replace him?
As for you, you couldnât bring yourself to look at him: every time you did, you caught the flicker of hurt hiding behind the forced grin he'd carefully plastered on his face, the sight making you feel sick to your stomach.
To be honest, you didnât try to approach him at all, the mere thought of confronting him keeping you away. What was the point, anyway? He was leaving Ferrari, and nothing you might say or do could ever change that.
You hated it. You hated that you had to stand there and watch him leave, you hated the team for making him, you hated yourself and how powerless you felt, you hated Carlos⌠especially the way you didnât hate him at all.
It wasnât something youâd planned: it just happened. Somewhere between the race debriefs, the jokes, and even the fights, youâd inevitably fell for him. What a shame you were only realizing it now.
You avoided him all night, slipping into the shadows every time he came too close or tried to approach you, ignoring the pang of guilt that hit you when you saw the half-smile he flashed falter. His eyes were questioning, almost pleading, burning holes right through you as you turned your back to him once again. You told yourself that was the only way you could survive the âpartyâ⌠or so you thought.
You knew it was coming, and yet when the lights dimmed and your teammatesâ voices lowered to whispers your heart dropped to your stomach, all the noise from before replaced by a piercing ringing in your ears.
The video.
The wide screen suddenly lit up, its brightness almost blinding in the dark room, the clips playing out on it in quick flashes: Carlosâ first podiums, his maiden victory with Ferrari, the celebrations with the team and the Tifosi, the challenges with Charles⌠each one of them was a dagger to the chest which twisted in a wound that had been bleeding for months now.
The motorhome had fallen silent, the stillness interrupted from time to time by a choked laugh or a quiet sniffle that echoed like gunshots. You kept your gaze fixed on the floor, unable to look at the taped moments without your sight getting blurry, forcing yourself not to let it wander over the faces that surrounded youâuntil you eventually did, and that was the worst mistake of your life.
Carlosâ eyes were glistening under the violent screen lighting, puffy and bloodshot from the tears heâd clearly already shed, which stained his cheeks and slightly parted mouth.
The walls started closing in on you, your breath coming out in shallow gasps as you felt a lump tightening your throat, panic rising in your chest. You couldnât see him like that.
You shouldâve stayed. For him. You shouldâve been close and hugged him, like everyone else was doing now that the video had ended, but you couldnât.
So you ran like a coward.
You stumbled back, bumping into people that you didnât really see, mumbling weak âSorryâ in their direction, until a hand on your shoulder stopped you in your tracks.
âWhere are you going?â He put it as a question, but the concern in his tone made it sound more like a warning, almost as if he already knew the answer.
âLet me go. Please,â you breathed out, the words painfully scratching your throat as you let them out. He didnât budge. âCharlesââ
âNo, listen to me,â he said firmly, his hold tightening slightly more to prevent you from getting away. âHe needs us. All of us.â He searched your eyes with his, a quiet request in them: we have to be strong for him.
âHe doesnât need me. Not like this,â you muttered, shame washing over you as you shrugged his hand off and finally reached the door, rushing outside like your life depended on it.
It was pouring, but you couldnât care less; in fact, the cool raindrops were soothing against your burning skin, their sound drowning out the thoughts that had been running through your mind relentlessly all night.
You didnât hear his steps, either.
âWhy are you out here?â Carlosâ voice cut through the storm like a knife, and you froze. Heâd followed you.
You didnât turn around. Instead, you swallowed back the tears you hadnât even noticed had started streaming down your face, mixed with the rain that soaked through your clothes. âGo back inside. Everyoneâs waiting for you.â
âI donât care,â he shot back harshly, maybe more than he intended to, because he quickly added: âWhy are you acting like this? Did I do something?â
âNo,â you replied flatly, the genuine confusion in his tone making it harder to keep yours steady. âI just needed some air.â
âSo what, you just left without saying anything?â He stepped closer, frustration bleeding through his words.
âItâs your party, Carlos, not mine. And itâs not that deep.â
âNot thatâdo you hear yourself? This âpartyâ is my last one here at Ferrari; weâre supposed to say goodbye.â His voice cracked, followed shortly after by the walls you were struggling to keep up.
âIâm sure there are plenty of people in there who are dying to sayââ
âDios mĂo, do you even care that Iâm leaving?â he spit out, the venom in his words hitting you like a slap right in the face. âOf course I careââ âThen look at me! Please, at least look at me.â He was so close now that you could feel his shaky breaths ruffling your hair, his warmth inches away from you, so familiar and yet so distant.
Slowly, you turned around, your vision blurry as you took in the sight of him: he was completely drenched in rain, the fireproof he was still wearing from the race clinging to his body, his usually perfect hair sticking to his forehead, and he looked so effortlessly handsome it made your heart ache.
âAnd now?â You let out a bitter laugh that sounded more like a sob. âWhat do you expect me to say? That Iâm happy for you? Because if thatâs it, Iâm sorry but I��m not. I donât care if I sound selfish, and if that makes me a horrible teammate then be it, but at least Iâm not a fake friend like half of the people in there. So yes, Carlos, I care, I care so much that I couldnât stay inside and watch you act like you didnât.â The words had spilled out of your mouth before you could stop them, leaving you breathless once you came to a halt.
Carlos blinked a few times, taken aback by your sudden outburst. Then, what youâd actually said clicked in his mind.
âI donât care? Youâre the one whoâs been avoiding me all nightââ
âCarlos, stop,â you choked out, tears welling up in your eyes once again at his sharp tone.
âNo,â he said, firmly. âNot until you tell me whatâs really going on.â
âItâs not that simple, okay?â Your voice cracked as it raised, trying to outshout both the storm that surrounded you and the one raging inside your chest.
âThen make it simple!â He yelled too, but his words sounded like a cry for help. That made you finally snap.
âI love you, Carlos! Is that simple enough for you? Because for me itâs not. It hurts so fucking much knowing that I canât do anything anymore, that Iâm too late, and itâs⌠easier this way. Distancing myself, I mean. I prefer walking away from you on my own than having you taken away from me.â
Heavy silence stretched between the two of you after your voice trailed off, your words still lingering in the damp air as you just stared at each other for what felt like ages.
âSay something, please.â You were the one begging now, his numbness worse than any sentence youâd heard tonight. âShout, scream, justââ
He didnât let you finish, his lips finding yours in a desperate, urgent kiss that tasted like tears and regrets. You poured every ounce of you into it, your hands roaming over each other and pulling you impossibly closer, almost as if you wanted to melt together and become a whole, so that nothing could ever separate you anymore.
When you parted, he pressed his mouth to your forehead, his hands cradling your face like you were the most delicate and precious porcelain doll in the world and he was afraid he might break you; too bad he already had.
âI love you,â he then whispered against your wet skin, before letting his lips fall to your right cheek. âAnd Iâll miss youâŚâ he pressed a kiss on it, then moved to the other. â⌠so much,â he left a third one, capturing the single tear that had escaped your eye.
âIâll miss you, too,â you breathed out, words getting lost in the howling wind.
You stayed like that for a while, wrapped in each otherâs arms as the rain soaked you both, washing away the tears that silently strolled down your face, and with them the promise of a future that ended before it even started.

Swimming | Sebastian Sallow x OC #59
Summary: ;)
Words: ~8,400
Tags: Confessions, Mutual Pining, Smut Adjacent
Timeline: Early September
Read more stories about Sebastian and Evangeline
Read on AO3
Evangeline froze, her mind momentarily blank as Sebastianâs shirt hit the sand. She hadnât expected him to take her seriously. The idea of swimming had been a passing remark, something to fill the silence between them and steer them away from the weight of their earlier argument. And yet here he wasâbarefoot, bare-chested, and completely unapologetic about it.
The fading light cast a soft glow that caught on the planes of his chest and shoulders, highlighting every defined muscle and faint scar. Heâd grown broader in the past few months, and it was all on displayâthe hard edges and smooth planes of him, the breadth of his chest and the angular cut of his abdomen.
Her eyes couldnât help but wander, tracing the faint smattering of freckles that dotted his shoulders, subtle and almost boyish against the otherwise sharp lines of him. Her gaze lingered, catching on the faint trail of hair below his navel that disappeared beneath the waistband of his trousers, and heat crept into her cheeks despite the coolness of the night air.
Evangeline swallowed hard, tearing her gaze away and forcing her thoughts back into order. She hadnât meant for things to go like thisânot after the way sheâd stormed off, her emotions raw and exposed. She knew why Sebastian had followed her, why heâd come looking for her. Heâd wanted answers. Closure. Something to mend the fracture between them. And yet, since the moment heâd arrived, he hadnât pressed. Heâd been patient, careful even, letting her dictate the pace of their conversation.
That patience was what had thrown her off the most.
Evangeline knew Sebastian. She knew his pride, his stubbornness, his instinct to charge headlong into everything, to fix things with grand apologies and passionate words. But tonight, he hadnât done any of that. Heâd stopped short of an apology, stopped short of pushing her to talk. Instead, heâd waited. For what, she wasnât sureâher temper to cool, perhaps, or for her to make the first move. Maybe even for her to tell him to leave. And now, this strange in-between had settled over them, fragile but strangely comforting.
Sheâd been talking so calmly with himânot because she wasnât still hurt, but because she wasnât ready to face the inevitable. The confrontation theyâd been skirting around all evening. The confrontation she knew she couldnât avoid forever. It would come, and when it did, it would leave them either stronger or broken. And she was terrified of the latter, so sheâd kept things light, conversational, even teasing. Anything to delay the moment when everything might come crashing down.
âWell?â Sebastian said, his voice breaking through her thoughts. He glanced over his shoulder at her, his dark eyes glinting in the fading light. âDonât tell me you were bluffing.â
Evangelineâs mind raced as she tried to summon a coherent response. âIâuhâŚâ She cleared her throat, dragging her gaze away from him and fixing it firmly on the lake. "Do you really expect me to... to just jump in?"
Sebastian's eyes narrowed. âWhatâs stopping you?â he asked. âYou were the one lamenting the lack of swimming in our lives.â
âThat was hypothetical,â she countered, crossing her arms defensively. âYouâre the one who's turning it into a reality.â
âExactly,â he replied, now reaching for the button of his trousers. âSo come on."
Evangeline blinked, averting her eyes. "I can't just go into the water in my dress Sebastian," she managed to retort. âThe, um. The boning in the corset will get ruined, and do you have any idea how expensive these things are?â
Sebastian blinked, clearly not expecting the sudden turn into practicality. âExpensive,â he echoed, looking vaguely bewildered. âRight. Of course. You dress has boning⌠and it's expensive.â
âYes, and Iâm not about to ruin it just because youâve decided tonightâs the night for an impromptu swim,â she replied more steadily now, folding her arms and glaring at him.
He tilted his head, studying her for a moment before realization dawned on his face. A flicker of something she couldnât quite place passed through his expressionânervousness? Determination?âbut he quickly schooled it into his usual smirk. âAlright,â he said, voice a little quieter now. âThen weâll fix that.â
She raised an eyebrow, suspicious. âFix what, exactly?â
Sebastian stepped closer, his confidence faltering slightly as he cleared his throat. âThe dress. I can, uh⌠help you take it off.â
Evangelineâs eyes widened, heat rushing to her cheeks. âWhat?â
He held up his hands, his face turning a faint shade of pink. âLook, Iâm just sayingâif the corset back is the only thing keeping you out of the water, then Iâll help. Thatâs all."
She stared at him, caught somewhere between mortification and disbelief. âSebastian, are you seriously offering toââ
âUndo the laces? Yes,â he interrupted, though his tone was uncharacteristically careful. âIâm not about to let you sit this out because of a stubborn bit of boning.â
Evangeline bit her lip, torn between laughing at his audacity and retreating entirely. But the truth was, she didnât want to leave. For all her inner turmoil, being hereâjust hereâwith him was better than the alternative. Better than walking away entirely, better than facing what the world outside this quiet moment demanded of them.
"Okay," she said slowly, her cheeks burning as she glanced down at the lake rather than meet his gaze. "But... you do realize that under this, Iâm only wearingâŚ" She hesitated. "You know⌠."
Sebastian, who had taken a step closer, visibly stiffened. For a moment, and she could swear his ears turned a shade darker under the moonlight. But instead of retreating, he cleared his throat and nodded, doing his best to appear unbothered.
"Yeah, it's fine," he said, though his voice was just slightly too quick. He gestured to his trousers, his smirk returning but with an edge of bashfulness that made it feel less like a tease and more like a reassurance. "I won't be diving in fully dressed, will I? So, youâll be in your underthings. And Iâll be in mine. Completely fair. No big deal, right?"
Evangeline blinked, momentarily at a loss for words. No big deal? He was saying it so casually, as if the thought of both of them standing there, practically undressed after they'd just had a shouting match, wasnât completely mortifying. "Right," she said faintly, trying to sound more composed than she felt. "No big deal."
Sebastian stepped closer, his movements deliberate and unhurried, as if he were giving her every chance to stop him. Evangeline felt the shift in the air before she heard the faint crunch of sand beneath his feet, his presence settling behind her like a steadying force. The warmth of him, so close yet not quite touching, sent a ripple of awareness down her spine.
Her breath hitched as she sensed his hesitation, a momentary pause that felt like the calm before a storm. Then, with a touch so light it was almost imperceptible, his fingers brushed against the ties of her dress.
Evangeline had been in love with Sebastian for so long that sheâd imagined him undressing her countless times in the privacy of her own thoughtsâmoments steeped in longing, tenderness, and stolen intimacy. But sheâd never, never expected it to happen in a scenario like this: standing barefoot at the edge of a moonlit lake, her cheeks aflame and her corset undone by his hands under the guise of practicality after they'd just stumbled out of a heated argument that neither of them had truly resolved.
Her breath hitched as his fingers worked at the laces, each pull sending a jolt of something unfamiliar through her. She couldnât deny the thrill of it, nor the longing it dredged up, raw and unrelenting. But with it came a rush of self-consciousnessâher mind spinning with the thought of him seeing her, really seeing her, with nothing to hide behind but her own vulnerability.
The ties loosened one by one, and her pulse quickened. Of course, this wasnât the first time theyâd shared an intimate moment. The memory of the Prefectsâ Bath flickered through her mind, that night when theyâd both shed their clothes and submerged themselves in the steaming water. But there had been bubbles then, clouds of froth that had kept her modesty intact.
Now, there were no bubbles to shield her, no warm water to obscure the curves and imperfections she tried so hard not to dwell on. It was just him, her, and the moonlight, casting its soft glow over everything she wanted to hide.
âThere,â Sebastian murmured, his voice low as he finished untying the last of the laces. He stepped back, giving her space, though his fingers lingered for a fraction of a second longer than necessary. âYouâre free.â
She swallowed hard, clutching the loosened bodice to her chest as she turned her head slightly, just enough to catch his expression out of the corner of her eye. He wasnât looking at her, not directlyâhis gaze was fixed somewhere over her shoulder, his jaw tight, as though he were making a conscious effort to give her privacy.
âThanks,â she said softly, her voice barely audible.
Sebastian cleared his throat, stepping back further. "Sure."
Evangeline stood motionless for a moment, watching as Sebastian now worked at the button of his trousers.
Steeling herself, she glanced around for somewhere to place her dress. Her eyes landed on a flat, dry rock a few feet away, its surface smooth and clean. Perfect.
With trembling hands, she finally let the rest of her dress slip away. The cool night air kissed her exposed skin, and a wave of self-consciousness hit her like a crashing tide. She was bare now, save for the lace of her bra and underwear, and every one of insecurities clawed its way to the surface.
The stretch marks she bore from the rapid weight loss and gain after fifth yearâthe ones that etched themselves across her hips and stomach and thighsâseemed glaringly obvious under the moonlight. The soft curve of her belly, the rolls on her back, the dimpled skin of her thighs. The scars from Quidditch mishaps and childhood scrapes. She felt the weight of it all, the imperfections she had long tried to accept but never quite could. Here, under the stars, it felt as if the world could see them all, and most painfully, so could he.
Sebastian, having finished unbuttoning his trousers, let the fabric slide down his legs before stepping out of them, leaving him in nothing but his briefs. The moonlight caught on the lean strength of his frameâthe broad shoulders, the taper of his waist, the long lines of his legs. His hair, dark and tousled, fell slightly into his eyes as he reached down to gather his trousers, balling them put before tossing them up the beach.
Swallowing hard, Evangeline started toward him, hoping to slip into the water before he could get a proper look at her bare form. The cool sand pressed against her feet as she stepped closer to the waterâs edge, her arms wrapped tightly around her midsection in a subconscious attempt to shield herself.
But Sebastian turned at the sound of her approach, his gaze instinctively flickering toward her before quickly darting away, as if realizing too late the vulnerability of the moment. His jaw tightened, and he cleared his throat. "Uh, tell me how the water is?"
She let out a breathless laugh, part nervous and part exasperated as she waded into the lake. The coolness bit at her toes, and she focused on the sensation, letting it ground her as she moved deeper into the lake.
Sebastian, to his credit, kept his gaze firmly fixed on the water in front of him. His posture was stiff, his usual air of nonchalance tempered by a rare, palpable awkwardness.
âItâs cold,â she said finally, her voice cutting through the silence. âRefreshing, though.â
He nodded, still not looking directly at her. "Good. Thatâs⌠good."
Evangeline couldnât help but smirk, despite her own nerves. âYou can stop pretending youâre suddenly fascinated by the lake, you know. Iâm already in the water.â
Sebastian glanced at her, his expression sheepish. âJust trying to be a gentleman,â he said, his smirk returning, though it was softer than usual.
âWell,â she said, now swimming toward the center of the small lake, âif thatâs the case, youâd better get in before I change my mind about this whole thing.â
His laugh was low and warm as he followed her, the ripples of the water spreading outward with each step he took.
"You're right," he agreed. "It's refreshing."
They swam in companionable silence for a while, the cool water easing the sharp edges of their tension but not erasing it entirely. It still hung in the air between them, weighty and unspoken, like a storm waiting for the right moment to break.
Meanwhile, the quiet sounds of the lake surrounded themâthe gentle ripple of water as they moved, the distant call of an owl, and the soft rustle of leaves in the breeze. Evangeline tilted her head back, her eyes tracing the endless stretch of stars above them. The sky seemed alive with shimmering light, so vast and serene that, for a moment, it almost allowed her to forget the weight in her chest. Almost. But the knot of their unresolved argument still coiled tightly within her, tugging at the edges of her calm. It was in the way Sebastianâs movements in the water were just a touch too deliberate, in the way he kept glancing at her when he thought she wasnât looking. He was waiting. And she knew why.
Sebastian, maintaining his patience, let out a contented sigh. âYou donât get skies like this in London,â he said, his voice low and reflective. âToo much smoke. Too much noise.â
Evangeline turned her head toward him, tracing his features as he gazed up at the sky.
âYou miss it, donât you?â she asked, her voice soft as her eyes traced the stars above. âFeldcroft, I mean.â
Sebastian nodded slowly, still gazing upward. âI do. The peace. Itâs hard to find a place like this anywhere else. Londonâs too loud. Too busy.â
âItâs nice that Feldcroft will always be here for you to come back to,â she replied lightly, her tone tinged with a wistfulness she hadnât intended. Their conversation slipped into a comfortable quiet again as they floated, the water cradling them in its cool embrace.
But the serenity didnât last.
The splash caught her off guard, a sudden burst of cool water striking her arm and sending a shiver through her skin. She flinched, startled, her eyes snapping to Sebastian, who wore an expression of feigned innocence that only made her suspicion grow.
It wasnât muchâjust a small, lazy flick of his hand through the waterâbut it shattered the fragile tranquility of the moment. For a second, she didnât move, her mind racing to catch up with the unexpected interruption.
âDid you just...?â she began, her brow furrowing as she stared at him.
Sebastian shrugged, the corner of his mouth twitching upward as though he couldnât quite hold back a grin. âWhat? I didnât do anything.â
Evangeline narrowed her eyes at him, her confusion giving way to incredulity. âOh, you didnât, did you?â
âNot a thing,â he said, his voice light, almost teasing. But there was something beneath it, something she couldnât quite nameâa tension he was trying to hide behind the playful glint in his eyes.
For a moment, she just stared at him. The shock of the gesture had faded, replaced by a flicker of realization. Maybe he wasnât just waiting for her to bring up the inevitableâmaybe he was delaying it too.
The thought unsettled her, but it also... softened something inside her. The weight of their argument, the tension that had lingered all evening, hadnât disappeared. But maybe neither of them wanted to face it just yet.
Narrowing her eyes, she cupped her hands and sent a splash of water straight back at him. He yelped, sputtering as it hit him square in the chest.
âYouâre going to regret that,â he said, his grin widening as he retaliated with a much larger splash.
Evangeline shrieked, laughing as she tried to shield herself from the spray. âStop!â she cried, though her words were punctuated with giggles.
âNot a chance,â he called back, dodging her next attempt and kicking up another wave.
The fight escalated quickly, their laughter ringing out into the quiet night. Evangeline managed to land a few solid splashes in retaliation, sending water cascading over Sebastianâs shoulders and face. He grinned, his eyes alight with mischief, and waded further out, using the deeper water to his advantage as he sent another wave her way.
Evangeline shrieked as the cold water hit her square in the face. âSebastian Sallow!â she yelled, trying to sound indignant, though her laughter betrayed her. âYou are so dead!â
âCatch me if you can, Sterling!â he shot back, already swimming toward the shallows.
Without thinking, she followed. Her legs churned through the water as she tried to close the gap, but Sebastian was faster, his strides growing longer as he reached the shore and took off running along the sandy bank.
âOh, no, you donât!â she called after him, determination sparking in her chest as she splashed onto the shore and gave chase, her earlier self-consciousness forgotten in the heat of the moment.
The cool sand shifted beneath her feet as she sprinted after him, the night air whipping around her damp skin. Sebastian glanced back over his shoulder, his grin wide and triumphant even as he saw her gaining on him.
But then her foot caught on an uneven patch of sand, and her balance wavered. She let out a startled yelp as she stumbled forward, her arms flailing in an attempt to steady herself.
Sebastian turned just in time to see her slip, his instincts kicking in. In a heartbeat, he was there, catching her around the waist before she could hit the ground. The force of her momentum sent them both stumbling.
In the aftermath, Evangeline froze, her breath catching as she registered what had just happened. She was sprawled against Sebastian, their bodies tangled together on the sand. His arms were wrapped firmly around her, his grip warm and steady as if to shield her from the fall. Her hands, instinctively braced against his chest, registered every inch of lean muscle beneath her palms, slick from the water.
Her chest was pressed to his, her damp bra and doing little to disguise the softness of her. His legs bracketed hers, their bodies aligned in a way that left no room for misunderstanding. She could feel the heat radiating off him despite the cool night air, the firmness of his hands pressing into the plushness of her waist, grounding her.
They had been close beforeâhundreds, perhaps thousands of timesâbut there had always been layers between them. Layers of fabric, propriety, and unspoken boundaries neither had dared to cross. Those layers had always been a buffer, a safety net that kept them tethered to a careful kind of intimacy, one that teetered just shy of something deeper.
Now, though, every one of those layers was gone. The cool water dripped down her skin, and the air between them felt impossibly thin. Her head swam as her gaze flickered, unbidden, to the damp hair clinging to his forehead, dark tendrils framing the sharp angles of his face. Her eyes trailed lower, to the curve of his jaw, the faint shadow of stubble, and the way his lips parted slightly with each steady breath he took.
It was intoxicating, and for one fleeting moment, she allowed herself to linger in the feeling, to imagine what it might be like to let herself give in completely to the warmth of his touch and the intensity of his gaze.
But then, like a bucket of ice water, her insecurities surged to the forefront.
She was too much. Too vulnerable. Too exposed. And he could see everything. Feel everything. The softness of her body, usually hidden beneath structured corsets and flowing skirts, was now pressed against him with nothing to conceal it. Her curves, her imperfections, her vulnerabilityâit was all right there, melting into him. She could feel the press of her stomach against his abs, the way her thighs seemed to mold against his. Her stretch marks, her scarsâeverything she tried to ignore or downplay felt glaringly obvious.
Her thoughts spiraled in chaos, screaming at her to pull away, to create the distance that might save her from unraveling completely. But her body betrayed her, frozen in place, refusing to let go of the warmth and solidity of him beneath her.
Sebastian shifted slightly, and when he spoke, his voice was quiet, low and rough with something she couldnât quite name. âEvie?â
âIââ she began, her voice faltering as she felt his thumbs brush against the curve of her waist, sending a jolt of warmth through her. âIâm sorry. I didnât mean toââ
âIt's fine,â he interrupted gently, his grip on her tightening just slightly, as if to steady herâor maybe himself. âI caught you, didnât I?â
She let out a breathless laugh, but the sound felt hollow. âYeah."
I should move. She knew she should. But she couldnât. And she realized with a start, that he wasn't moving either.
Sebastianâs voice broke the silence again, a faint smile tugging at his lips. "Was this part of your grand plan? Throwing yourself at me like this?â
Her cheeks flamed instantly, and the mortification snapped her out of her daze. âWhat? No!â she blurted, scrambling to push herself away from him, her hands bracing against his chest for leverage.
But as she moved, Sebastianâs grip reflexively reached for her hips to steady herâor at least thatâs what she assumed he intended. The result, however, was nothing short of disastrous. Instead of breaking free, her movements shifted her forward, leaving her straddling his hips as her knees sank into the cool sand on either side of him.
Evangeline froze, her breath catching as the new position sent a shockwave of awareness through her â the warmth of his abdomen radiating through the damp fabric of her underwear, the firm grip of his hands still pressing into her sides. Her entire body felt exposed, laid bare in a way that made her chest tighten and her breath hitch. And the angleâMerlin, the angleâmade it so much worse. He was beneath her, looking up with an unobstructed view of everything she tried so hard to hide.
Sebastian, meanwhile, let his head fall back into the sand, the cool grains pressing against his damp hair as he shut his eyes tightly, a soft, almost pained groan slipping past his lips.
He needed to ground himself. To stop his thoughts from spiraling into places he couldnât afford to go right now. But it was impossible.
From the moment sheâd landed on him, sprawled and warm and so real, he'd been done for. Sebastian was drowning in her, in the feel of her, the weight of her on top of him, the heat of her against him. His hands spanned her hips, plush beneath his fingers, the kind of softness heâd dreamed of countless times but never dared to hope heâd actually feel.
When he opened his eyes again, he was greeted with the sight of her above him, framed by the silvery glow of the moonlight. She looked ethereal, her damp hair clinging to her face and shoulders, a few dark strands curling against the curve of her neck. Her cheeks were flushed, whether from embarrassment or exertion he was unsure, and her hazel eyes were wide, darting between his own and his mouth as if she couldnât decide where to look.
And then there was her body, her glorious body that left him breathless. Her thighs framed his hips, plush and firm in a way that sent heat pooling low in his stomach. The curve of her belly rested just above the waistband of her panties, soft and utterly mesmerizing. Instinctively, his thumbs brushed against the supple give of her hips. It was all he could do not to drag his fingers lower, to let himself explore the curves and dips that had haunted his thoughts for years.
And her chestâMerlin, her chest. The damp fabric of her bra clung to her like a second skin, the delicate lace barely containing her obnoxiously full breasts as they rose and fell with each shallow breath she took. Sebastian swallowed hard, his mouth suddenly dry, his fingers tightening to anchor himself to reality.
It was too much. The feel of her, the sight of herâhe felt like heâd been pulled into one of his dreams, one of the countless fantasies heâd entertained over the years when he let himself imagine what it might be like to have her like this. But this wasnât a dream. Evangeline was here, her body soft and real beneath his hands.
"...Sebastian?" The way she said his name, so quiet and full of uncertainty, nearly undid him.
Sebastian swallowed hard, his voice caught somewhere between a hum and a sigh as he tried to focus on her words instead of the overwhelming reality of her warmth against him.
âHm?â he managed.
Evangelineâs brows furrowed slightly. âAre you⌠alright?â she asked, her voice trembling with uncertainty.
Was he alright? No. Absolutely not.
âIââ He hesitated, the words catching in his throat. He let out a breathless chuckle, shaking his head slightly as he forced himself to look at her. âWell, Evie, youâve just tackled me into the sand. Do I look alright to you?â
Her lips parted in surprise, and for a moment, she stared at him, her expression torn between indignation and something softerâsomething vulnerable. âI didnât tackle you,â she retorted, though her voice lacked its usual conviction.
âOh, really?â he teased, his lips quirking into a faint smirk despite the tension coiling in his chest and low in his abdomen. âBecause it feels a lot like you tackled me.â
Evangelineâs gaze darted away from his, her hazel eyes fixing somewhere over his shoulder as though the horizon suddenly demanded all of her attention.
Her lips parted, and for a moment, she looked as though she might say something sharp to counter his teasing. But instead, she ducked her head ever so slightly, her dark hair slipping forward to frame her face like a shield.
âWell, sorry. Just⌠um. Donât look at me too closely, okay?â
Sebastian blinked, his brows furrowing as her words hit him. He felt the tension in her body, the way her shoulders seemed to curl inward as if she were trying to shrink away from him even while her weight remained firmly atop him. Despite the heat pooling low in his stomach, an ache bloomed in his chest at the quiet vulnerability in her voice.
She wasnât just embarrassed. She was worried.
She was worried about him seeing her. She was worried about how he would see herâworried that what she thought about herself was what he might think too. And in that instant, something inside him irrevocably shifted.
In the past, Sebastian wouldâve been horrified to admit the hold she had over himâthe way she could unravel him with a single glance, a soft laugh, or the briefest brush of her hand against his. For years, he had fought to bury those feelings, to shove them deep into the corners of his heart where they couldnât hurt either of them. He told himself it was for the best, that admitting how much he wanted her, how deeply she affected him, would only complicate thingsâruin what they had, because he'd never be good enough for her.
So, he had kept it hidden. He turned his attraction into half-teasing quips and fleeting, stolen moments of closeness that he knew he could laugh off later. He flirted with other girls, chased fleeting distractions, anything to fill the void.
But now? Now, with her sitting atop him, her cheeks flushed and her body trembling with an uncertainty she couldnât quite hide, every feeling he had fought so hard to suppress came crashing to the surface, relentless and impossible to ignore, demanding to be spoken.
Because this wasnât just about his lust for her. It wasnât just about wanting to touch her, to hold her, to watch her come undone by his hand. It was about how deeply it hurt him to see her doubt herself. To see her sit there, beautiful and radiant in the moonlight, and think for even a second that she wasnât enough. That she wasnât everything.
He knew admitting the truth was risky, he'd always known it. That's why he'd never done it. It could change everything between them, destroy the delicate balance they had maintained for so long, destroy this unspoken thing between themâthe blurred line they had walked for months now, somewhere between friendship and something so much more.
But he couldnât keep lying to himself, and he couldnât keep lying to her. Not when he saw the way her insecurities gnawed at her, the way she tried to shrink away from him as if she could hide all the things she thought werenât good enoughâthings he had long ago fallen irrevocably in love with.
He didnât know what to say or how to say it. He had dreamed about this moment countless times, but now that it was here, every word heâd ever rehearsed in his head felt inadequate, clumsy. He knew he would stumble, that he probably wouldnât say the right thing or make her feel the way she deserved. But fuck it. None of that mattered anymore.
Sebastianâs hands flexed against her hips as he let out a soft breath, trying to steady himself. â...Evangeline?â
She stiffened at the sound of her name, her hazel eyes reluctantly darting back to meet his. There was a mixture of hesitation and uncertainty in her gaze, and he could see her battling whatever thoughts were swirling in her head.
â...What?â
His own voice came out low and rough, strained with the effort of keeping himself in check. âIf you back your ass up just a little,â he continued, the words deliberate, their weight unmistakable, âyouâll realize exactly what happens when I 'look closely'.â
Her eyes widened, her lips parting slightly as his words sank in. The air between them grew heavy, charged with a tension that neither of them could ignore. Sebastian held her gaze, his own unwavering. âI promise you,â he said softly, his tone laced with raw honesty, âmy body isnât exactly subtle about how it feels about you right now.â
For a long, breathless moment, she didnât move. Her chest rose and fell rapidly, her breath catching audibly in her throat. Sebastian waited, his heart pounding in his chest, unsure of what she was going to do. He couldnât help but wonder if heâd pushed too far, if heâd crossed a line they couldnât come back from.
But then, slowly, her hand lifted from his shoulder. Her movements were hesitant, trembling, as her fingers brushed lightly against the waistband of his underwear. A spark of heat shot through him at the simple contact, but nothing could have prepared him for what came next.
Her hand moved lower, her palm pressing against him, and the world tilted on its axis.
Sebastian's breath left him in a sharp, ragged gasp, every nerve ending lighting up as her warmth seeped through the thin fabric separating them. His grip on her hips tightened instinctively, his fingers curling into the soft flesh.
Evangelineâs hand froze there, her palm resting against the hard, unmistakable length of him, and her eyes widened in surprise, her breath coming faster as though she hadnât actually believed himâhadnât truly expected his arousal.
âOh,â she murmured, the single syllable escaping her lips like a startled exhale.
âOh?â Sebastian repeated, his voice breathless, almost incredulous. âOh?â
Her cheeks turned a deep crimson, the color spreading down her neck, and her lips parted again, as if she wanted to say something but couldnât find the words. Her hand moved away, and Sebastian nearly groaned, the absence of her hand leaving him aching and desperate for more. He couldnât help but laugh, though the sound was rough and uneven. âWhat did you expect?â he asked, his voice low and heavy with need. âIâve been telling you for ages how beautiful you are. Did you think I was joking?â
Her blush deepened, and her fingers twitched as if she didnât know what to do, whether to pull away entirely or press closer.
âI justâŚâ she started, her voice faltering before she finally let the words out in a rush. âI didnât thinkâwell, I mean, it makes sense, doesnât it? It would probably happen with⌠with any girl, right?â
Sebastian blinked at her, and for a moment, he simply stared, the disbelief washing over him like a wave. âEvangeline,â he said, his voice quieter now but no less intense, âyou canât seriously think that.â
She flinched slightly at the weight of his tone, and her gaze darted to the side, her fingers tightening on his shirt as though bracing herself. âWell, I⌠I didnât thinkââ
ââYou didnât think you were my type,â he finished for her, his voice soft, laced with a quiet tenderness that balanced the exasperation flickering at the edges.
âIâwell, whenever you said I was pretty, I just... I thought you were being nice,â she mumbled.
Sebastian didnât know whether to laugh or groan. He shook his head. âNice?â he echoed, his voice rough with disbelief and a hint of frustration. âEvie, you have no idea.â
He shifted beneath her, his body rising as he pushed himself upright, bringing them face to face. The sudden movement made Evangeline inhale sharply, her hands instinctively gripping his shoulders to steady herself as she remained perched in his lap. He didnât give her time to pull away or retreatâhis hands moved with deliberate care, sliding up from her hips to cup her face gently.
Her brows furrowed slightly, confusion flickering in her eyes. âWhat are youââ
âYou donât understand,â he interrupted, his voice low but steady, a quiet intensity in every word. âYou have no idea how hard itâs been pretending. For years, Evie. Pretending I wasnât completely attracted to you. Pretending I didnât notice every little thing about you that drives me absolutely mad.â
She froze, her breath catching audibly, but Sebastian wasnât done. He swallowed hard, his gaze unwavering as he continued. âSince fifth year, Evangeline. Since the day we met and you obliterated me in that duel,â His voice softened, his words carrying the weight of all the years heâd kept them buried. âYouâve no idea what itâs been like. Being so drawn to you, wanting you so badly, and forcing myself to act like it wasnât there. Like nothing was happening.â
âAnd now?â he continued, his voice growing quieter but no less raw. âNow that weâve been sharing a bed for months, do you know how torturous itâs been? Having you so close, knowing youâre right there, and pretending it doesnât affect me? Pretending I donât want you?â He let out a short, self-deprecating laugh. âAnd now, when youâre literally on top of me... How am I supposed to hide it, Evie? How am I supposed to pretend this doesnât feel like Iâve slipped into one of my dreams?â
Her face flushed an even deeper shade of crimson, and her hands trembled slightly where they rested on him. âSebastian...â she whispered, her voice fragile, but he pushed forward, determined to get it all out.
âI get it,â he said softly, his tone shifting into something more vulnerable, almost apologetic. âI understand if this is a lot for you. If itâs too much. And Iâm so sorry if you feel like Iâve been deceiving you all this time. But I didnât know how else to handle itâI didnât want to ruin things between us. But I... I couldn't let you think for another second that you needed to hide from me. Let you think you weren't good enough."
âIn all the flings Iâve had,â Sebastian pushed forward, his voice quieter now, raw and honest in a way that made his chest ache. âAll those girls... I imagined you.â His dark eyes searched hers, desperate for her to understand. âIt was always you, Evangeline. Not them. Not anyone else. Just you.â
Her expression softened, her wide eyes filling with something he couldnât quite nameâshock, maybe, or disbelief, or something more vulnerable. Her lips parted slightly, but she didnât speak, her hands hovering now as though she didnât know whether to hold onto him or pull away.
The silence stretched and Sebastianâs caught the unmistakable glimmer of tears in her eyes. Panic surged through him, sharp and relentless.
Heâd said too much.
The thought gripped him, twisting in his chest. He had gone too far, laid bare feelings he had guarded for years, and now he was watching her unravel beneath the weight of his confession.
His pulse thundered in his ears. Why hadnât he stopped? Why hadnât he held back like he always had, like he was supposed to? This wasnât how things were meant to goâthis wasnât how heâd imagined her reacting if he ever mustered the courage to tell her the truth. Maybe heâd overestimated her feelings, maybe this was too much for her, maybeâ
Her hands, hesitant but warm, slowly rose to his face, fingers trembling as they brushed against his cheeks, as though testing if he was real.
Sebastian froze.
âEvangeline,â he whispered, his voice barely audible, rough with emotion. âIââ
âStop,â she murmured, cutting him off. Her voice wavered, soft and unsure, but there was no anger in it, no rejection. If anything, she sounded... overwhelmed. âJust⌠stop for a second.â
He obeyed instantly, holding his breath as her hazel eyes darted across his face. âYouâve... thought about me?â she asked, her voice unsteady, almost disbelieving. Her fingers tightened slightly against his cheek. âLike... that?"
âEvery day,â he admitted instantly, his voice hoarse. âEvery bloody day, Evie. For years. And youââ He let out a shaky breath, his eyes never leaving hers. âYouâre all Iâve ever wanted, and Iâve been too much of a coward to tell you because I couldnât risk losing you.â
Evangeline certainly didn't miss the way he'd worded it, calling himself a coward. He could see it in the way her eyes searched his, darting across every line, every flicker of emotion that crossed his face, as though adding pieces to the puzzle she'd been trying to solve. And Sebastian held perfectly still, his breath shallow, his heart pounding so hard it drowned out the night around them.
Her brows drew together, a faint crease forming between them as confusion and disbelief flickered across her face. âSebastianâŚâ she began softly, her gaze dropping for a brief moment before lifting again to meet his. âHow you feel⌠Is it just... a physical thing?â
Her words landed like a blow, and Sebastianâs heart clenched painfully, panic igniting in his chest like a wildfire. âNoââ The word burst from him sharper than heâd intended, the urgency in his voice startling even himself. Her eyes widened slightly, and he immediately winced, his tone softening as he leaned closer. âNo. Itâs not just that. Itâs not even close to just that.â
Sebastian swallowed hard, his chest tightening as he fought to untangle the mess of emotions threatening to overwhelm him. His dark eyes locked onto hers, pleading silently, desperately, for her to understand. âDo I think youâre beautiful? Merlin, yes. Youâre stunning, Evie. You drive me absolutely mad, and you have for years. But itâs so much more than that.â His voice cracked slightly, and he leaned closer, his hands cupping her face in return as if afraid she might slip away.
âItâs you,â he said, his words trembling with the weight of everything heâd kept bottled up. âYouâre everything. Everything I never knew I needed until we met. Everything Iâve been too afraid to want. And itâs not just about how you look, or how much I want youâthough Merlin knows I do.â He exhaled shakily, his gaze never leaving hers. âItâs about you. All of you.â
The silence that followed was deafening. Heavy. Crushing. It stretched between them, every second of her quiet pulling him further into the churning void of fear. His heart thundered in his chest, the sound almost deafening in his ears, and though his hands stayed steady against her cheeks, his mind was unraveling.
Why wasnât she saying anything? Had he said too much?
When he couldnât bear the silence any longer, his voice broke through it, raw and pleading. âEvie,â he whispered, his throat tightening around the name. âPlease. Say something.â
Her breath hitched audibly, and she let out a shaky exhale before covering her mouth with one hand, her eyes darting away from his.
Sebastianâs stomach plummeted. Dread sank its claws into him, dragging him down into a pit of despair deeper than anything heâd ever known.
Sheâs upset. Sheâs hurt. Iâve ruined everything.
âIââ he started. âI didnât mean toââ
Evangeline let out a shaky breath. âYouââ Her voice wavered, muffled by her hand as she turned back toward him. Her eyes shimmered, not with rejection or anger, but with something else entirely. âYou absolute idiot.â
Sebastian blinked, stunned. âWhat?â
Her hand dropped from her mouth, and she let out another incredulous, watery laugh, her chest heaving as she tried to collect herself. âYouâre daft, Sebastian Sallow. Completely, utterly daft.â
âIâwhat?â He stared at her, his confusion mounting. This wasnât what he had expected. Not even close.
Evangeline shook her head, her laughter breaking into a soft, almost broken sob, her expression an aching blend of joy and frustration. âDo you have any idea how long Iâve waited for this?â she said, her voice trembling with emotion. âFor you to say these things? To finally hear what Iâve been hoping for?â
Sebastian stared at her, his mouth slightly open, completely unprepared for the torrent of words that followed.
âYears, Sebastian,â she continued, her voice cracking on the word as her emotions poured out, raw and unfiltered. âYears. I thoughtâI convinced myselfâyouâd never feel the same way. But then⌠then after the Prefectâs Bathroom, after the Equinox BallâŚâ She paused, her hazel eyes shimmering with unshed tears, her voice barely holding steady. âI let myself hope. I thought maybe⌠maybe there was a chance.â
Her breath hitched as she tried to steady herself, shaking her head as if fighting back against the weight of it all. âAnd all summer, I hoped that youâd say something, that youâd give me a sign.â
Her hands trembled as they cradled his face, her touch warm despite the cool edge of her desperation. âBut you didnât,â she whispered, her voice cracking again. âYou never did, and the silence... well, I started doubting everything again, doubting us. It felt like⌠like Iâd been foolish to hope at all.â
She let out a shaky laugh, her expression twisting with a mix of relief and pain. âThatâs why I said yes to New Zealand. Because I thought⌠I thought this moment would never come. That Iâd spend my whole life waiting for something that was never going to happen.â
Sebastianâs heart stuttered in his chest, her words crashing over him. For a moment, all he could do was stare at her, his breath caught somewhere between his lungs and his throat. Shock and relief warred within him, tangling with a sharp pang of guilt that twisted in his stomach.
âYouâre serious?â he managed finally, his voice barely above a whisper.
Evangeline gave him a watery smile, her eyes shining with unshed tears. âMerlin, yes, you idiot. Iâm serious.â
Sebastian swallowed hard, shaking his head as the weight of her words crashed over him. "Evie..." he began, his voice hoarse and unsteady. Guilt clawed at his chest, raw and unrelenting. How had he been so blind? How had he let her believe, even for a moment, that there was no future here? No future with him? The thought that she had accepted New Zealand because she thought she had no other choice made his heart ache in ways he hadnât thought possible.
âIâm sorry,â he said suddenly, the words spilling out with desperate urgency, his hands instinctively reaching for hers. His grip was firm but careful, his fingers curling gently around hers as though trying to hold her togetherâor maybe himself. âEvie, Iâm so sorry. For making you wait. For not saying something sooner. For letting you think I didnâtââ His voice cracked, his throat tightening painfully as he searched for the words, his dark eyes locked onto hers with a kind of raw intensity.
âFor letting you doubt, even for a second, how much I feel for you,â he continued, his voice trembling. âYouâre rightâIâm an idiot. Iâve been an idiot for years. But Iââ
And then she leaned in.
Her lips were soft against his, warm and urgent, like sheâd been holding herself back for far too long and couldnât bear another second of restraint. The moment their mouths met, Sebastianâs usually sharp mind went scattering, his thoughts fracturing like glass under the weight of this impossible, beautiful reality. She was kissing himâEvangeline was kissing him.
The fantasies heâd conjured in stolen momentsâbefore sleep, during quiet spells when he let himself hopeâwere pale, fragile things compared to this. His imaginings had never been able to capture the way her lips moved against his, how soft and inviting they were, or the way she tasted, faintly of lake water, a whisper of salt from her tears, and something so distinctly her that he knew heâd crave it for the rest of his life. Nothing had prepared him for the feel of her body against his, warm and yielding, her curves fitting against him so perfectly it made his heart stutter.
His fingers slid into her hair, threading through the damp strands as he gently tilted her head. His lips found hers with a tenderness that felt almost sacred, parting them with a care that spoke of quiet devotion. She met him with equal fervor, her lips moving against his in a rhythm that felt like a rediscovered melodyâunfamiliar, yet instinctively known, like a song heâd been waiting his entire life to hear. The world around them melted away, the lake, the trees, the cool whisper of the night air all fading into insignificance. There was only her. Only this. Only them.
When they finally broke apart, it was only because their lungs demanded it. Their foreheads came to rest against each other, their breaths mingling in soft, uneven gasps. Sebastianâs eyes fluttered open, his gaze locking onto hers.
Her hazel eyes were wide, the moonlight catching on the unshed tears that lingered there. Her cheeks were flushed, her lips swollen and slightly parted, and the sight of herâso close, so vulnerable, so achingly realâtook his breath away all over again. She looked beautiful, painfully, heartbreakingly beautiful, and he couldnât stop himself.
"I'm in love with you, Evangeline." he whispered, his voice rough and uneven. "I always have been."
She let out a soft, breathless laugh, her lips curving into the faintest smile as her fingers lightly traced the line of his jaw. "I'm in love with you too."
Sebastian let out a shaky breath he hadnât realized heâd been holding, his heart hammering against his ribcage as her words settled over him. It was almost too much to process, and yet it wasnât enoughâ
âSay it again,â he murmured, his voice low, almost pleading.
Evangelineâs smile widened slightly, her hazel eyes glinting with a mixture of amusement and tenderness. âIâm in love with you, Sebastian Sallow,â she repeated, her voice firmer now, more certain. âUtterly, hopelessly in love with you.â
A low laugh, more like a sigh of relief, escaped his lips, willing the air between them with something soft, something that felt impossibly fragile and yet unshakably certain.
âI donât deserve you,â he admitted quietly, his voice raw. âNot after everything Iâve put you through. But Evangeline, Iâm not letting you go. Not now. Not ever.â
Her hands moved to his wrists, her fingers curling lightly around them as she leaned into his touch. âYou donât get to decide what you deserve, Sebastian,â she said softly, though there was steel beneath her words. âThatâs for me to decide. And Iâve already decided Iâm yours. If youâll have me.â
âIf Iâll have you?â he repeated, his lips quirking into a faint smile as he tilted her chin up slightly, his dark eyes searching hers. âEvie, Iâve been yours since the moment I met you.â
A soft laugh bubbled from her lips, the sound light and full of something that felt achingly like relief. Before he could say anything else, before he could even begin to process the sheer joy of hearing her laugh like that, she kissed him again, softer, slower, as though they finally had all the time in the world.
She fit so perfectly against him, her body pressing into his like it had always belonged there. Every sigh, every shift of her weight, sent warmth coursing through him, settling low in his abdomen and making him ache with need. He couldnât think, couldnât form a single coherent thought beyond her.
And when they finally broke apart again, Sebastian pressed a kiss to her temple, lingering there as he whispered, âStay.â
Her breath hitched, and she pulled back just enough to look at him. âStay?â she echoed.
âHere. With me. Donât go to New Zealand,â he said, his voice steadier now, his hands tightening gently on her waist. âWeâll figure it out. Whatever the Muldoons throw at us, whatever comes nextâweâll face it together. Just... stay, Evangeline. Please."
Her gaze searched his, the uncertainty flickering in her eyes softening into something calmer, something resolute. She nodded, her hands brushing against his jaw again as she whispered, âOkay.â
Sebastianâs chest swelled. He pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly against him as if to make sure she was truly there, truly his. The lake shimmered in the moonlight beside them, but all Sebastian could see, all he could feel, was her.
FINALLY IT HAPPENED. FINALLY. TIME TO CELEBRATE. THEY DID IT. THEY STOPPED BEING SO STUPID.

last christmas
nicholas chavez x reader
summary: nicholas sees his ex y/n at a Christmas party and starts to dwell on the pastâŚ
It was a crisp winter evening, and the air was thick with the sweet scent of pine and cinnamon, the soft glow of Christmas lights twinkling across the room. Nicholas stood by the fireplace, his hand casually holding a glass of eggnog as laughter and music swirled around him. The Christmas party at his friendâs house was in full swing, but despite the cheerful atmosphere, Nicholas felt a knot in his chest.
He hadnât wanted to come. He knew she would be hereây/n. His ex.
Y/n had been his world a year ago, their lives intertwining like the festive garlands draped around the room. But then it ended, messy and painful, with words they could never take back. Since then, Nicholas had moved on. Or at least, he told himself he had.
Across the room, his new girlfriend, Victoria, laughed with some friends. She was beautiful, effortlessly charming, and far more polished than y/n had ever been. They looked good together, and Nicholas was grateful for her company tonight. Yet, every time he looked at her, there was a hollow feeling in his chest. He couldnât shake it.
Suddenly, the door to the kitchen opened, and there she was. y/n.
She was standing near the entrance, her eyes scanning the crowd. Her hair was loose around her shoulders, and she wore a simple red sweater with a plaid skirt, an effortless grace to her that made Nicholasâ heart skip a beat.
Y/n caught his eye for a moment, and for a split second, it felt like no time had passed. That familiar ache, that warmth, crept back into his chest. But then, she turned away, her gaze moving on.
Nicholas felt a strange mix of disappointment and relief. He thought he had moved on, but the truth was, seeing her after all this time still affected him more than he liked to admit.
It wasnât long before Victoria pulled him away, and as they made their way to the dance floor, he could see y/n again, standing off to the side, alone. He hesitated. He should just enjoy the night with Victoria, but something tugged at him. Something about y/n standing there, looking so distant, reminded him of who she used to be in his life.
âExcuse me,â he said to Victoria, planting a kiss on her cheek. âIâll be right back.â
Victoria nodded, clearly unaware of the storm brewing in Nicholasâ heart. He made his way through the crowd, each step heavier than the last, until he stood in front of y/n.
She looked up when she noticed him standing there, her expression unreadable. For a moment, there was just silence between them, the noise of the party fading into the background.
âY/n,â Nicholas said quietly. âItâs been a while.â
She studied him for a moment before nodding. âYeah, it has.â
He swallowed, unsure of what to say next. His gaze drifted to the drink in her hand, her posture stiff as she kept her distance.
âI didnât expect to see you here tonight,â he said, his voice soft, tentative. âI guess I should have known.â
Y/n raised an eyebrow, a subtle challenge in her gaze. âAnd whyâs that? You think Iâd just disappear after we broke up?â
âNo,â Nicholas said quickly. âI didnât mean that. I just⌠I didnât think youâd want to be around me.â
Y/nâs lips pressed together into a tight smile. âFunny. You didnât think about me much when it mattered, did you?â
Nicholas flinched at the words, the weight of them hitting harder than he expected. But he quickly regained his composure.
âIââ he started, but she cut him off.
âYou donât need to explain yourself. Weâve been through this before.â Her voice was firm, and it made him pause. âLook, Nicholas, Iâm glad youâre happy, really. But this⌠this thing we had? Itâs over. Itâs been over for a while now.â
âI know,â Nicholas said softly, his eyes meeting hers. âBut I still think about you. Sometimes, when Iâm alone⌠I still think about us. About what we had.â
Y/n looked at him for a long time, her face softening, but only for a moment. Then she shook her head, a wry smile forming on her lips.
âIâm not the one you should be thinking about, Nicholas,â she said, her voice calm but resolute. âYou have Victoria now. Sheâs the one whoâs here with you tonight. Sheâs the one who gets to be a part of your present.â
Nicholas opened his mouth to respond, but y/n raised her hand gently to stop him.
âAnd Iâve moved on, too,â she added. âIâm not holding onto the past anymore. We canât keep looking back, especially not tonight.â
For a moment, they stood there in silence, the weight of the past between them. Nicholas felt the familiar ache in his chest, but it was different this timeâsofter, quieter. There was no bitterness in y/nâs voice, only acceptance.
âYouâre right,â he said after a beat. âI guess I just needed to hear it from you. Iâm sorry, y/n.â
She nodded, her smile faint but sincere. âI hope you have a Merry Christmas, Nicholas. And really⌠I hope you find the happiness you deserve.â
As she turned to walk away, Nicholas watched her go, a bittersweet feeling filling him. He felt a sense of finality, but also relief. The past was the past, and he had to let it go. For good this time.
Turning back toward Victoria, who was looking over at him with a curious expression, he made his way back to her.
The music played on, and Nicholas realized something. The holiday season wasnât about holding onâit was about moving forward, cherishing the memories, but letting the past stay where it belonged.
After all, it was Last Christmas.

MELTiNG SNOW, UNCONDiTiONAL LOVE. kageyama tobio x fem!reader ă winter holidays , fluff , sfw , established relationship , potential ooc. ă WC. 1.2k
SYNOPSIS. the coldest season had arrived and the whole nation is on good spirits. On this rare occasion, a simple love story is told under the light snowfall; the heartwarming tale of you and your beloved spending the day away.
NOTE. my submission for @pixelcafe-network 's secret santa event !! a fluffy gift for my dearest little elf, @shouyuus da da dan, hii rain, I'm your secret santa !! surprise? I hope you are because the gift that I've prepared for you is finally here !! it's my first time writing for hq and I'm hoping I get his characteristics right cuz it's been so long since I last watched the anime...>~< also special thanks to my sis for proofreading!!
It was late in the evening in mid-December, one of those unusual days when your boyfriend had the day off. To maximize that precious time, you typically utilize it either by going on dates or relaxing at home based on your mood. At present, you were shopping for groceries when you noticed that it was snowing outside.Â
âOh, it's snowing!! The weather prediction was accurate this time!!â You shouted, nearly glowing with happiness at the sight of the winter paradise ahead of you, watching your breath create small clouds in front of you as you talked. The snowflakes danced down from the sky, forming a winter display of small butterflies that appeared truly enchanting. Your ears perked at the gentle crunch of the snow beneath your feet, while the biting cold caresses your cheeks, making them flush.Â
âIt's becoming chillier out here; are you okay with only that?â Your boyfriend, Tobio was strolling beside you, carrying plastic bags in one hand as you twirled around, arms wide open in an ecstatic stance, with snowflakes swirling around you. From the perspective of an outsider, it appears as if you were dancing with the snow, yet to him, your features in the cold could easily make you seem like a fairy.Â
âShe looks great in white,â he thought, gazing at you with eyes full of love, and then his face flushed pink as the realization hit him. What was going through his mind just now?!? In the meantime, you, oblivious to his flustered condition, eagerly moved forward to explore the shops, calling out, âTobio! Check this out! It's a cupcake shop with a Christmas theme!â Your eyes shine like a child's eyes brighten when they encounter something extraordinary.Â
You exclaimed, indicating another shop before darting away once more, âWhoa! Oh, oh, check that out over there! Isn't the window display in that store incredibly adorable? Oh my gosh, they even have polar bear ones?!âÂ
âCould you slow down a little...?â Tobio was following closely, ensuring he wouldn't lose you in the throngs of people. âIf you don't pay attention to where you're headed... you'll find yourself face down on the ground.â
âI'll be fine! I'm not a child or anythingâwaah?!â After stubbing your toe on the bumpy platform, Tobio grabbed you before you could fall onto the floor. âHaaaaah, Iâm fine!â You got up, completely unharmed as if you hadn't just been plummeting to your demise moments earlier...Â
He exhaled deeply, shaking his head as you grinned, scratching the back of your head. âBut Tobio, come and check this outâACHOO!â You emit a loud sneeze, your nose reddening slightly as you cover it with your right hand. He exhaled deeply, setting the bags onto the snowy platform, gradually peeling off his scarf. âYou gonna get catch a coldâ
âB-But! You're going to catch a cold as well.â You looked at him with worried eyes.Â
âItâs okay,â he mutters, his face tinged pink from the chill while you remained frozen in shock as he began to drape the lengthy scarf around your neck, when he finished, he took your free hand before lifting the bags from the icy platform. âLetâs head home.âÂ
You found it hard to look away from him, slowly blinking as a soft blush crept over your cheeks. âY-Yeah...â
.
.
.
âWe're home!â You call out into the vacant corridors, causing a faint echo to ripple across the apartment. It was completely dark when the two of you got back to your home, removing your shoes before heading to the living room to turn on the lights, but something drew your attention and you shouted as if recalling something crucial, âOh wait, Tobio!! Come over here for a moment!â
âWhat is that?â You could hear his gentle footsteps nearing the living room, and before long, you could see his head peeking through the doorway.Â
âOh...you have one of those warm tables with a cover, a kotatsu?â He gazed at it with shining eyes, appearing as if he was about to plunge in and snuggle up inside; it made you smile softly. âSure, I figured you would enjoy it since you mentioned staying home for a few days, so I went ahead and bought it at the mall.â
âWasn't it.... overly priced for you to purchase them?âÂ
âOh, it's okay... your needs matter more than my wallet, anyway.â
âWhat was that about?â
âN-Nothing at all...â
Feeling flustered, you attempt to shift the conversation to conceal your embarrassment, âLet's give the kotatsu a try!â You're still chilly from being outdoors for such a long time. You were so thrilled that you quickly sat down under the kotatsu. âAh, it feels so cozy~âÂ
Tobio couldn't resist chuckling a bit as he watched you sink onto the heating table, settling down himself beneath the cozy blanket. âWould you like a mikan orange?â You take an orange from the little basket in front of you and gradually start peeling it.Â
âSure, I'll have oneâ
âI feel like taking a nap first...I'm feeling all snug and comfortable from this warm kotatsu...â
âDid you forget why we're doing today?â
âBut it's so nice here, and I don't want to move yet...â You sulked, using your most sorrowful puppy dog eyes to appear as pitiful as you could.Â
âAlright...â At that moment, he appears extremely forlorn, resembling a kicked puppy due to his downcast eyes as he gazes at the table before him, intermittently darting glances between you and the kitchen with a look of hope, nearly pleading for your attention. For a large man, his face really affects your poor heart. So unfair. You rose abruptly and moved toward the tall man with an expressionless face.Â
âW-What is it?â Tobio glanced at you, puzzled by your abrupt shift in emotions, and you quickly kissed him on the lips, surprising him. âYou know it's unfair of you to use that face against meâ
âWhuh-?â
âAlright, let's head to the kitchen now! Time doesn't pause for anyone!!!â
He could only observe as you quickly dashed to the kitchen, loud sounds echoed from the spot where he was seated.Â
âShe's like a storm...â He couldn't resist smiling gently as he approached you while you scurried around gathering ingredients for a feast. The sound of bare feet echoed on the kitchen floor, darting around quickly as you began to open numerous...and numerous cabinets, trying to grab something concealed within it.
...hence the start of a journey filled with challenges and mistakes, concluding the day with laughter and happiness. The moments shared with cherished individuals embody the real essence of a winter miracle...Â
Š HANAERIIN. please do no repost, translate, copy or use any of my works on any platform/train ai.

Let Down
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
Park Jihyo x female reader
Warnings: Angst, jihyo cheats (heartbreaking), relationship struggles, mentions of... a man
Story: Jihyo is behaving weird. She is growing distant, and you get a hint why.
Authors note: I'm obsessed with this song. I thought the mood would fit for this idea. Enjoy the readâĽď¸
-------------------------------------------------------
Usually, October, was your favourite month. You loved the fresh autumn air and the way the leaves changed their colours, only to fall from the branches and wrinkle until nothing but dust was left of them.
The cicle of the different seasons is always fascinating. You love going outside and experiencing this in real life. Touching the said leaves that had fallen to the ground. Laying in the grass on a warm spring day and watching the birds return after the cold. See the beauty of nature in the summer and, finally, the cold and icy days of the winter.
Winter always made you a bit sad or depressed. You never knew why, though. It is as if all of the happiness, collected by the other seasons, is just pulled out of your head and replaced with some lingering thoughts.
In all these dark and icy months, you had Jihyo. She was the only person bringing you joy when there really was nothing to be happy about. She cared for you in ways you have never experienced. You are so thankful for the relationship that has been growing between you two.
You were introduced through chaeyoung. You are friends with chaeyoung. Both of you met at an art museum. She stumbled onto you while taking pictures of the paintings. After that, your friendship blossomed, and she introduced you to Twice.
Jihyo and you understood each other immediately, though it all needed some time. You were honestly too shy to ask her out. She never really thought you were into her.
The ice was broken after the other members set you up for a date. After that, you both hit it off very well. Even though you needed to be secret about this, due to her idol status and the strict dating rules. It wasn't easy in the beginning, but you passed over every obstacle, as long as you were with her.
â
You try to warm your feet under a thick blanket. The TV is playing in the background. One of Jihyos' favourite K-dramas is running. She told you early into the relationship about her love for K-dramas and the need for them to always be playing when she was home. You quickly took over her habit, and now, every time you're at home, some korean drama is running in the background.
You watch the episode attentively while waiting for Jihyo to come home. Twice is busy, especially during the colder seasons. New comebacks are waiting to be released, and another world tour is being planned.
You want to give Jihyo all the space and time that she needs. She could be very hectic and frustrated during those times, so she really needed the time and space at given moments. Arguments often bubbled up, and Jihyo really hated them. They always resulted in tears and slamming doors.
It's almost midnight, and she still hasn't come home yet. Late nights were occasional at the company, but you always knew when Jihyo took more time to prepare stuff for the comebacks. She would call you or message you about stuff like this.
It has happened before that she did not reply to your messages or just forgot to send a text about her being late, but in the last few days, these occurrences started piling up. She always found an excuse, and you were forgiving.
â
Jihyo comes home, and the lights are still on. The TV is playing, and you are on the couch, fast asleep. She has seen thus sight many times before. As much as it hurt her for the relationship to be like this, she couldn't do much about it. The company needed her more than anything right now, hoping on her ideas or her presence for the comeback.
She walks over to your body and smiles softly. The sight never got old. She leaned down to give you a small kiss on the cheek, her lips leaving a small kiss mark.
Jihyo turns off the TV as well as the lights. Her arms wrap around you and carry you over to the bed. The bed is comfy and carries both of your scents within its sheets.
After getting ready for bed, Jihyo settles down next to you. Her muscles are sore from the practice. The smooth and soft feeling of the mattress eases the tension in Jihyos' body and helps her relax.
She falls asleep a few moments later.
â
Twice did not know about someone collaborating with them. It was a last-minute decision, chosen by one of the managers. The artist is quite known in the west. The goal is to bring Twice's fame more to the Western people. More collaborations with Western artists would guarantee more fans.
The members were always a bit shy when it came to meeting new artists. Their career mostly resulted in the groups comebacks. Only a few months ago, they started with inviting over other artists and creating new songs.
Jihyo and the other members were excited for the guest. They were waiting in some room within the company. There were some formalities to go over before shaking hands and making music.
The atmosphere was slightly tense, but the women did everything in their mind to keep the tone nice and friendly. The managers were preparing everything for the meeting. Soft laughters filled the room as the Twice members joked around about the situation or past moments.
The attention is quickly fixed to the door as a relatively tall, tanned man walks in. His clothing style is simple. The smile on his face seems genuine. The Twice members quickly get up to greet the Western artist. Jihyo, as the leader, went up to him first. She bows down a bit and greets the man with a gentle smile.
"Hi, I'm Jihyo, and this is Twice."
She points to the other eight women. The man introduces himself and greets the other women, too, though his gaze stays on Jihyo. The leader of Twice does not notice this, though, being too caught up watching after her members.
The language barrier is a bit awkward but is quickly fixed with a translator. The meeting goes smoothly, and everyone is happy with the results. The connection between Jihyo and the other artist is friendly, though the man can't seem to keep his eyes off of Jihyo.
â
The cold weather outside of the bookstore carried many people through the doors. Books were getting more popular nowadays so your job as a cashier was more active and fun. It's almost like the sells for books rise with the colder months. The aesthetic of walking into a bookstore after a fresh walk must be a nice feeling for the people in town.
You were focused on getting the newly ordered books into their shelves. The organising and refilling of books took up most of the time. You never understood customers who just left books on completely different shelves.
The ladder you were on was shaking a bit, and you had to hold onto one of the shelves. You have been working for almost seven hours now, and your shift will be over soon. You can't wait to get home and cook a nice meal for Jihyo and yourself. It has been a while since the two of you found the time and energy to have a proper meal together.
Ever since you moved to Korea, you made sure to learn Korean cuisine and master their way of cooking. This came in handy after you met Jihyo. She loves food and was surprised by your cooking skills. It was nice and loving to cook for her, and watch her eat the food with a happy frown.
You quickly make your way back home after your shift. Jihyo is already home and greets you with a loving embrace as well as a long kiss. The kissing wouldn't stop, as both of you missed each other dearly, never really getting the chance to spend a lot of time together. The food could wait, as your feet take wobbly but sure steps towards the bedroom. Jihyos arms quickly picking you up and carrying you over to the bed.
â
His voice intrigued Jihyo. Not many artist stayed around this much during comebacks, most of them just travelling around Seoul to experience the culture and take pictures. He, on the other hand, stayed around the group, made sure to get to know everyone, and strike up small but meaningful conversations.
Was it obvious that he was mostly talking to Jihyo? Yes. Did anyone suspect or notice anything? No.
Jihyo is a charming woman nonetheless. Her aura is alluring, and she does the best at feeling new people welcome. Adding the leader card and her natural care for the other person's well-being can make quite a few people dizzy with love. She always got complimented and showered with love. The hybe around this woman was nothing new. Yet she always made sure to stay loyal.
You were a big secret in Jihyos' life. Of course, the members and her family knew, but the bigger image was always closed off with a curtain, preventing the attention on Jihyos and your relationship. She made sure that you were safe from the fans and the paparazzi. She would not forgive herself if the sharp tongues ever cut at your flesh.
And even though you're her everything, the person that supports her the most during times where she felt the worst, she can't keep her eyes off him. What makes this man so special? Is it his American accent? The way he listens attentively to everything she says? The attention she gets from him?
Jihyo's mind can not fathom any reason why she would be this interested in another person if she got the perfect one sitting at home, waiting for her. Maybe this was not romance. Jihyo was sure that she was just fascinated by the man's persona. That must be it.
Nothing could come between you and Jihyo, right?
â
His name has left her mouth about seven times this evening. You notice the way her eyes light up while talking about him. It made you wonder. When was the last time Jihyo talked about you like this? Her members would often take chances and share whatever Jihyo was saying with you. Whether it was your appearance that day, that made her heart swell or the way you said goodbye before work. But now that you think of it. Jihyo hasn't been this affectionate in a while.
Sure, her career was demanding, and you were never that kind of girlfriend. You could never put yourself between Jihyo and her job as an idol. She worked so hard for this. Never in a million years would you ever make her change something about her job. You even admired her patience for pursuing an artist life. It was hard and often made Jihyo crumble under the stress. There were times when you cursed out her choice of work, but after all, it was something that she chose.
And now you're here. Listening to her gushing about this male artist. Suddenly, the food tastes bland, and your appetite leaves along the mood for a romantic night. The warm lights of the restaurant feel too dark, like they're purposefully pushing you into the dark. Everything seems to pull you down, and that's just by hearing his name.
You sigh and push away your plate. Jihyo stops talking and focuses on your behaviour. She frowns and puts a hand on yours, her thumb idly brushing over your knuckles.
"Is something wrong, babe?
The concern in her voice is evident. She always cared for you. Jihyo would move mountains if it meant for you to be happy. She would do everything she could to ensure your comfort.
"I'm fine, it's just, you've been talking about this one artist the whole evening. It's like I'm not even here with you."
Your answer takes Jihyo aback. She hadn't noticed the way she was constantly bringing up his name. Sometimes, Jihyo just drifts off while talking. It's natural for her not to notice the line.
"God, I'm so sorry, honey. I never meant to ruin our date night. Just interrupt me when I drift off again, okay?"
You nod. Jihyo seals the promise with a kiss on the back of your hand. After that, she goes back to talking. Yet, you don't have the heart to inform her that she is infact drifting off again. Her conversation slid over to a certain male artist.
â
A week has passed by. You haven't seen Jihyo for three days. She hasn't entered the apartment, claiming that the company needs her. Nights are spent without her, and to your dismay, the bedsheets start to lose their smell.
Jihyo is slowly but surely drifting off. At first, it started with the conversations. She would rarely talk about common things or you anymore. All she ever talked about now was that stupid guy. You couldn't take it anymore. Then she started missing out dates. She always excused herself, but the apologies became sloppy and unreliable. At last, she forgot your anniversary. That night ended in a heated argument. She claimed that there was nothing going on while you were throwing the accusations at her like there's no tomorrow.
She left after that night, staying at the company or at one of the member's apartments. You can't remember her getting like this. This sassy and unbuttered behaviour. In the past, she would come back to you, apologise, and make up for her mistakes. Now she ignores you.
The job has been your only release. Sorting and selling books made you forget about the drama, which is displayed at home. Some of the members reached out to you. Nayeon came over and talked with you about Jihyo's behaviour. She suspicioned something, but her hints didn't get to you.
You trust Jihyo with all your heart. She would never betray you. Even if Nayeon made some convincing discoveries. Your mind couldn't handle the thought of Jihyo ever doing something like that.
You were supposed to move into a bigger apartment. Late night talks resulted in marriage plans. It had been about four years since you two got together. Why would she throw all of that away now? It all didn't make sense to you.
â
Jihyo couldn't believe it, but the hickeys on her neck showed a fact. What had she done?
The last night had passed in a hace. Drinks were gulped down as if they're nothing. Shot after shot brought Jihyo to her limit. Her alcohol endurance is high, so it took a lot of alcohol to break that.
Back to whatever happened last night. Jihyo went out with him. At first, the plan was to just let loose and forget about the stress of being an artist, and then something changed. Jihyo can't remember when she decided to kiss him. It was a moment of weakness, nothing more. She would never do this again.
Her hands reach for some make-up to cover up the dark red bruises across her neck. She would never tell you what happened. This would be a secret, a secret that Jihyo would take to her grave.
â
You knew. Right when she laid down beside you, you knew. The way her arms wrapped around your body differently. You just knew it.
Her hands were sweaty and warm, and her breath was slightly uneven. After being with someone for such a long time, you remember antics that even the person themselves would never notice. Her withdrawal after the male artist was introduced, the way her tone and eyes changed when she talked about him, and lastly, her not coming home after the comeback was celebrated.
The Twice members had reached out to you. Nayeon was so worried about your well-being. Everything fit together like a big puzzle. Would you ever be the same? Would she ever admit to what she has done?
You can't get the answers, and you probably never will. Instead, all you do is curl into her body, breathe in her scent, and kiss the spot on her neck, which holds the hickeys that he made.
The cold wind blows through the partly opened window, and suddenly, autumn isn't your favourite season anymore. The wind is too cold and too harsh on your skin. The leaves that fall from the branches only make a mess on your balcony. You felt like one of the leaves, falling from the tree. First, you change your colour, then you fall from the only support that you've had for the longest time of your life, and then you start to wrinkle, and everything turns into dust. A faint memory of what once was, and what will never be.

With love, Leo Valdez
Leo emerges from the woods having come from bunker nine. He walks around camp half blood, when he sees the Apollo kids shooting arrows hitting bull's eye, their aim perfect as always.
His eyes drift to the one Apollo kid he's been noticing from time to time, they've been a little more quiet unlike their other siblings who shone bright like the sun itself. Yet, you always seem to have a glow to you that left other campers awaiting for the budding romance.
He must have been staring too hard when they looked his way, quickly Leo looks away before briskly walking away. His face growing warm, despite his fire powers it definitely wasn't the reason why he felt warm from just eye contact.
Was it a love? No, they're friends but they haven't even spoken that much with each other. Then? It was a crush, wasn't it. Leo's face grew warm after a year of hello's and conversations at the campfire growing closer each night, he realized while walking past the archery range? Then again they really looked ethereal bathed in the sunlight like that. Okay that seemed more plausible.
Well, it wouldn't be a surprise if he did. No one would blame him! They were gorgeous, kind, and would smile at Leo whenever they cross paths, even waving to him or ask how he was and listened really intently.
Leo sighs, he wondered how he could talk to them more... He ponders before reaching a conclusion.
"Piper!"
She could help, right? She is a daughter of the goddess of love, she could help him. He turns around to walk to the Aphrodite cabin instead of his own when he bumps into someone.
"Sorry, kinda in a rush" He turns back when the person grabbed his wrist and behold it was you.
You stood there smiling at Leo, "Where are you going off to, Leo?"
He stammered not expecting you to be holding his hand so soon, his usual suave no where to be seenânot foreseeing this encounter left him more nervous than usual.
"I'm just uh on my way to the forge" He laughs nervously in a way not quiet seen on Leo most of the time.
"Huh? Oh I thought you'd be on your way to the Aphrodite cabin, since you did call Piper out loud." They chuckle remembering the silent Leo in front of them muttering quietly then suddenly calling out Piper's name like Eureka!
"Haha you're right I should probably go there too.. So.." He eyes their hand still wrapped around his wrist. Realization hits youâletting go of Leo's wrist with a sheepish grin on your face.
"heh sorry I grabbed you so suddenly" They rub the back of their neck. "I just wanted to let you knowâ" Their words don't reach Leo, not when he's staring at them, missing the warmth from their hand. They look so attractive in this lighting, is it because they're a child of Apollo? Was the rose tinted glasses this strong already? Holy shit they even sound good, were they saying something?
"So, you'll do it right?" You poke his side teasingly as Leo snaps out of his daze with a slight jump.
"Huh? Haha yeah totally!" Leo had no idea what they said but he would rather bury himself than admit his fumble due to the distracting way the sunlight reflects their eyes making it almost impossible to look away.
"Then, it's a date, remember to pick me up around 2pm" You smile at Leo when you're suddenly called back to the shooting range by one of their siblings.
You wave good bye to Leo, who stood there in utter shock, weakly waving back with a small awkward smile until you look away and Leo took that chance to run to the Aphrodite cabin, where Piper was chilling, unaware of his best friend's little date predicament.
In a matter of minutes, he arrives at the Aphrodite cabin. Leo knocks on the door panting and sweating buckets not from the run hardly that but the way he feels like combusting on the spot. Shit, a date he can't believe it and it wasn't him who asked. His crush asked him out.
Holy Molyâis what Hermes would've said. So, what would his dad say? Trust isn't given it's forged?
He should've listened to them instead of wondering how they still had such soft hands despite the scars littered here and there. A jarring difference with his own hardened and scarred from various fights and projects.
The door opens with Piper who looked like she just woke up from a nap and didn't wanna be bothered until three hours from now. Until she registers her best friend's face red and still had smudges of oil on his face, looking ready to combust.
"So, what's got you so flustered? Leo, you look like you'll combust I see literal sparks but anyways get in. I think I know who this is about.." She opens the door wide open, walking into the barbie pink dreamscape.
No matter how much Leo goes inside the cabin he could still get hit with the smell of perfume, it was a change from what he was used to but it smelled nice. What perfume would you use... is how his thoughts wandered.
Piper raises a brow at Leo's mumbling, "So? What happened with y/n?" She went straight to the point patting the space in front of her. Leo grabs a pillow from Piper's bedâplopping down the soft light blue covers of the Aphrodite cabin.
"I won't even ask why you know I'll just imagine it's an Aphrodite kid thing, totally not cause I'm obvious." He sighs before looking up at Piper, "Was I obvious?"
"Honestly, even someone not from the Aphrodite cabin could tell. Sure, you both weren't stuck by the hip but the way you look at them just gave it away before you even realized your crush." Piper shrugs looking at Leo who was already groaning into the pillow.
"So? What happenedâ"
"They asked me out but I didn't hear anything until the end." He mumbles from the pillow as Piper's eyed widened in disbelief.
"What do you mean you didn't hear?" Piper scrunches up in disbelief on how Leo fumbled getting confessed to.
Leo recalls the situation to Piper when her siblings heard and were beginning to pat Leo on the back comfortingly.
"They still asked you out. So, it's a win" A son of Aphrodite says in a way to comfort one of the seven heroes.
"Right? It's a date.." One daughter of Aphrodite chimes in
"So, we should definitely dress you up" Drew looks him up and down before going through her brother's wardrobe to look for something suitable.
Piper looks holds back a smile at the way her siblings, even Drew were helping out with Leo's love problem. About an hour of pep talk, advice and amongst other things, they made Leo take a bath then dressed him up, ready for a date.
Only ten minutes before he'll have to knock on the Apollo cabin's door asking where y/n was. He didn't regret his choice of bee lining for the Aphrodite cabin. Though, he didn't expect all the extra help from Piper's siblings.
He was glad he made some flowers out of metal for them back then as he walks to his own cabin after thanking Piper's siblings. After getting the flowers he now stood in front of the Apollo cabin fiddling with the flowers before knocking.
Instead of you, it was Will Solace with his brow raised at him before he grins and steps aside showing you looking really pretty.
"Leo! Don't mind Will. I was wondering when you'd show but I didn't think you'd be so on time" They step forward before noticing the flowers behind Leo's back.
Leo sensing their gaze on something before pulling out the flowers when realization hit on where your gaze landed on.
"Did you make this for me?" Your eyes sparkle as if the light emitting from you wasn't enough. Though, it was a first for Leo to see you so bright.
Leo nods with a sheepish grin that always seems to be on his face around you. Leo takes in a deep breathe as he speaks, "These are for you and I'm sorry if these aren't real flowers..." His initial confidence wavering until you grip his hands holding the metal flower bouquet with a huge smile on your face that made Leo feel all warm inside.
"I love it, Leo. It's really pretty and it looks so cool. I promise I'll take care of it" They take it from Leo, grateful for such a thoughtful gift.
Leo felt all warm, they love it.. He made something for them and they love it.
You lead the way as you clasp his hand, "Let's go? I already have everything planned" They lead Leo who walks beside them with a stupid grin on his face.
"... Why did you ask me on this date?"
"I like you.'' You look behind you just near the spot you had planned the picnic date near the river in the forest, noticing Leo had let go of your hand. The sight before you felt like a reward from the goddess of love herself.
There he stood with his face flushed staring at you in utter shock, his hand to his face trying to hide the warmth of his cheeks. Yet, with the way the tip of his ears turn red it was all the confirmation you needed.
"oh" He whispers in pure realization.
"Hold up! Let me process. I just realized my crush on you a few hours ago, have some mercy on me."
You laugh not in a way where you're making fun of him but in away that he looked so cute in the golden light like that. Leo sputtered, "Stop... Stop laughing!" You walk to him all light and airy seeing his reaction was all you needed
"Don't worry I'm not laughing at you. So, you like me too huh" The teasing grin on your face didn't help with Leo's embarrassment as he groans.
"Shush not the time..." He then runs off plopping on the picnic blanket with a smirk, "And I win." You may have won in terms of confessing and teasing but let him have this win.
"Hey!" Bubbling amusement wells up in you, running after himâthe leaves crunch beneath you with every step you take to where Leo had already made himself comfortable.
Erhm! Very self indulgent.

tag, youâre it
anon request: I need a winchester lazer tag au ASAP
word count: 1.6k
pairings: sam & dean winchester x platonic!reader
âoh! ho ho ho yeah!! Look, Sammy... we gotta do that.â Dean nudged Sam, pointing over to the laser tag booth that came into view. It was rare that the brothers got to have any innocent fun. When Dean saw the arcade in the town they were passing through, Sam actually agreed to stop in. Neither of them could remember the last time they had been to an arcade.Â
âNah, man câmon. Letâs go check out some of the machines first.â Sam dropped his shoulders.
âWhat. You scared Iâm gunna beat ya?â Dean snickered.
Sam let out an annoyed breath. âNo...â
âThen letâs go, chicken.â Dean smiled as he walked backwards towards the entrance. Sam threw his hands up in a âfine, whateverâ motion.Â
Both men suited up in the laser tag vests and each grabbed a plastic gun as they stood before the worker giving instructions to the group.Â
âWhen the lights on your vest blink twice, youâve been hit. When the lights on your vest blink a bunch of times, then turn off, it means you are out! Please remember, no pushing or shoving. No screaming or yelling and do not go climbing anything in the arena. Game starts in 60 seconds, have fun.â He stood aside as everyone flooded into the game arena.Â
âWatch your back, Sammy.â Dean taunted as he ran off into the dark. Sam shook his head, looking around at the few kids, some teenagers and young adults. He felt silly in the vest that looked too small on his large torso, yet joined the crowd in finding a spot to hide.
The first few kids were out within the first 5 minutes. Dean came into the game feeling a bit cocky, while Sam felt a little weird if he didnât let the younger kids win. Dean came face to face with a teenage boy, holding his gun up on instinct. The kidâs reflexes were just too fast enough to catch Dean off guard in that moment as he lit up Deanâs lights. âEy, câmon.â Dean huffed.
âArenât you a little old to be in here.â The teenager teased.Â
âW-wha. No!â Dean retorted. His face flush with slight anger and embarrassment. His attention quickly brought to the hushed laughter straight ahead of him where he looked up and spotted Sam behind a corner.Â
âNot funny...â He grumbled.
âActually, it is.â Sam giggled.
âWell, youâre right up there with me.â Dean sassed, pointing his gun up at Sam.
âShit.â He whispered as he ducked behind a beam.
âYou can run, but you canât hide, Sammy.â
âShut up, Dean.â his voice descended as he ran to find another hiding spot.Â
Dean got a little too comfortable walking around the almost empty arena. His grip tightened on his weapon as he heard footsteps echoing through out the glowing neon room. He looked down, startled at his vest as its lights flashed, indicating he was hit. His head swooshed back and forth, trying to catch whoever got him. Instead he caught two teenagers running in the opposite direction, trying to sneak around him.Â
Dean got a clear shot and lit both vests up with blinking lights which then fell dark. âNice try!â
The two girls looked back at him with disgust. Tossing their guns down in defeat and walking towards the exit.Â
Dean rounded the corner, peeking through a circular window at all the hotspots. Sam was crouched behind a barrier, trying to listen for how many players were left. Samâs vest then lit up twice, he swiftly stood up to move forward as he looked around. âDean! Hey!â
âWhat!â Dean called out from across the room. There was no way Dean couldâve got him from where he was hiding. âYou tryân to give yourself away!?â Dean shouted.
Sam looked behind him, confused. âNo... but didnât you just get me?â
âNo, why?â Dean wished he had.
âWell, someone just did...â
Dean caught up to Sam, putting a time out on their game. âSo, someone sniped you. Big whoop!â
Sam huffed, looking at Dean. His expression changing to a snobby smirk as he watched Deanâs vest light up. âOh, how the tables have turned.â he laughed.
Deanâs head shot around in all directions. âThatâs not funny! Who the hell is left? I donât see anyone else.â He pouted.
âOk, well letâs get out of the open. Who ever it is, is probably hiding.â Sam pulled Dean to the side. âSo, I guess this makes us a team now, huh? Now you donât gotta worry about me smokin your ass.â Sam teased.
âSure. We can be a team until we gank this last sucker. Then, itâs a one on one duel.â Dean corrected. Sam rolled his eyes. âWhatever.â
The two men moved through out the arena, so cautious and hyperaware of their surroundings. âLook! There.â Sam whispered, pointing out the glowing lights of a vest, illuminating on a wall. Dean smirked as he hand signaled Sam to follow him. The two snuck up on the barrier, on Deanâs cue aiming to fire. Except, nothing was there.
âWhat the hell?â Dean lost in confusion. âHow does someone move that fast?â
Just then, Samâs vest lit up, followed by Deanâs. Both of them looked down in surprise. âAre you freaking kidding me!?â Dean threw his hands in the air. He turned around, facing the open emptiness of the room.Â
âYou want a battle? You got one!â He declared. âCâmon, Sam.â
The brothers split into two sides of the arena, ready to catch whatever kid was left in the game with them. How they had even gotten the upper hand on two skilled hunters baffled them.Â
Sam heard light footsteps run across the room in front of him. Definitely did not sound like Deanâs heavier boots. He raised the plastic gun, ready to aim when his vest lit up again. âWhat the- how?!â He slightly raged.
âLooks like you two donât have the upper hand on us âkidsâ huh!â A small voice rang from the middle of the arena, behind a pillar. Sam and Dean stood up, looking around until they spotted a young girls face, resting upon a ledge that she hid behind.Â
Dean scoffed, taking a step forward. âWell, actually this was kind of supposed to be a battle to the death... with my brother. So, if you could just take the hit so we could finish up here.âÂ
âOh! Sure, of course! Sorry to intrude, I didnât know.â The girlâs voice full of sarcasm. âBut, actually Iâm gonna have to say no. Iâd like to get my ten bucks worth out of this game, and win it in the process.â
âHah! Sammy, I guess we are gonna be a team this time, because this one is going down.â Dean rolled up his sleeves.Â
âYeah, sure.â The girl said before ducking behind the pillar and running in another direction.Â
âHey! Whereâd she go?â Dean already losing track of their opponent.Â
âI dunno. But clearly, sheâs fast.â Sam chimed in.
âClearly, sheâs gonna get beat. Itâs two against one.â
The brothers took turns trying to aim at the girl whenever they thought they spotted her. Each time, failing miserably. âDude, I donât even know how many more hits we got on us until weâre out.â Sam drooped in defeat. Deanâs vest then blinked many times until the light went out. Samâs vest followed with the same pattern. They both looked at each other with a look of annoyance.Â
The girl then came out of hiding behind a wall, revealing herself in front of the two men. The arena lights came on, the loudspeaker on their vests blaring âGAME OVERâ and the girlâs vest blaring âWINNERâ with the lights flashing in all directions.Â
Sam and Dean let out a breath, when they saw the girl before them. She looked like a teenager, but a teenager that could hold her own pretty well and had good aim.Â
âWell, it has been a pleasure. Hope I didnât break your laser tag spirits.â She spoke.Â
âNah, youâre all good. This one here just gets way too competitive.â Sam pointed at his brother, whose shoulders went up and down in response.
âNo worries, itâs a fun outlet.â She half laughed.
âGotta say, you got some good aim on ya.â Dean confessed.Â
âYeah? Well thank you, I work hard on my aim.â She smiled.
âReally? Uh, you ever shoot like... real guns?â Sam asked, his curiosity growing.Â
âYeah, here and there.â She said, being vague.
âWhat, do you go hunting or something?â Dean asked.
âSure, something like that... Listen, thanks for being good sports. Itâs not often you see a couple of olâ timers playing laser tag, itâs pretty cool. I gotta get going though.â
âOh, of course... Good game!â Sam paused at her words, giving a small genuine smile.Â
She smiled before turning on her heels to exit the arena. The boys followed her out. The three of them took off their vests and guns to return to their respective hooks on the walls. Sam turned to see the girl throw a backpack over her shoulder, looking closely and spotting a pin secured on the top flap.Â
âDean, look...â He nudged him.Â
Dean followed Samâs gaze to the backpack as the girl started to walk away. An anti-possession symbol in the form of a little pin sat neatly attached to the bag.Â
âA hunter?â Deanâs voice was low.
âDefinitely. She has to be...â Sam thought.
âIf sheâs that good at laser tag, I can only imagine how good she is at the real game.â

The Motherfucking Lizard King
No one at work trusts my boss.Â
He's smart. He works hard. He's not trustworthy. He hasn't actually fucked anyone at work over, but he's ruined his last two marriages with affairs, and got dumped by his third fiance when he wouldn't sign a prenup. The fact that we all know this is just a hazard of working in a small town.Â
Anyway: The thought process of the people in the lab is that if he screwed over his first wife, and his second wife, and was probably planning on screwing over his third wife, it would be insane for him not to screw us over. After all, what kind of idiot treats their employees better than their spouse?Â
I dunno. His kind, I guess? He's had a few chances to fuck us over, and he hasn't taken them. Opposite really. When our parent company was doing furloughs, he stayed in the office almost a hundred hours, talking and talking and talking his way up the corporate ladder. And in the end, no one at our site got furloughed.Â
He's pulled strings like that before. And it baffles me, right? Because it really does make zero sense. He'll move the heavens and the earth for us, but his wife and kids are afterthoughts. It feels like any moment, he's going to look into the mirror and realize how stupid that is. It feels like I'm betting on him making the same stupid mistake again, and again, and again - like it would be less cynical to believe he was, eventually, going to stab me in the back. But he hasn't yet, and as far as I can tell he's been making that mistake for close to fifteen years, and it's already cost him everything it can. If he was going to learn, he would have by now.Â
So my position on him is that if he wanted to date someone I cared about, I'd warn them off. I don't trust him there. But I tentatively trust him to be my boss. Maybe one day he'll stick the knife in and twist, and everyone will say Ah, Babs, we warned you, but for now, I accept that he's doing a very predictable, very irrational thing, and I've made my peace with it.Â
---
My job has glue traps.Â
No one likes the glue traps, but we don't have a lot of options. Poison's banned by state law, spring traps are banned by company safety, and several non-lethal options tried in the past failed to work. The mouse problem can get pretty bad if it's ignored, and there's some real health hazards in that. Our site has never had a positive hantavirus test, thank God, but the big base about a half hour away has. That guy's gonna be on oxygen the rest of his life.Â
If a mouse gets caught, we just euthanize it. But more than mice get stuck. Lizards can wander into those traps too, and the people working there have different feelings about the lizards. They don't pose nearly the same kind of risk mice do. They're chill little guys, and they keep the moths away, and they're justÂ
You know. They're friendly. There's something to be said about walking into a room, and hitting the light switch, and seeing two little guys on the wall start to do pushups as soon as they see you.Â
People used to just euthanize the lizards too, but I had pet leopard geckos as a kid and I couldn't take that so I wound up googling how to free animals from glue traps. Now, when a lizard gets stuck in a trap - which happens once or twice a week - I get some vegetable oil from the breakroom, and a little plastic fork, and I'll spend fifteen to twenty minutes just kind of gently prying the little guys out.Â
I have a team of technicians that help me operate one of the larger machines. They're real blue collar guys, ex-airforce, and they make me look like a little kid. Being an engineer means they'll look to me as a leader sometimes, which is a wild experience. And I started helping the lizards for my own conscience, but one of the crazier consequences of it has been that it seriously boosted my leadership cred. Because those guys see me, and they go: Hey. If he's willing to fight for a lizard, he's gotta be willing to fight for me.Â
I cannot overstate how nice that is. Most engineers that want to make a change to a maintenance practice, or try an upgrade, they have to work their asses off to get the techs to buy in. But I can just ask. They already trust me to do good. They know I'm new, and they know I'm not the smartest engineer in the building, but they also know I'm the one who gets lizards out of the glue traps.Â
And just because of that, they're willing to follow me.Â
---
My boss has a meeting every month or two. It's typically basic house cleaning stuff - reminders about routines we've gotten lazy on, and updates on future projects. Maybe some warnings about problems coming from higher up in the company.
People are, in my opinion, a bit too cynical about the meetings. It stems from people not trusting our boss, which again, I understand, because it would make so much more sense if he wasn't trustworthy. It's a testament to the man's incredibly unhealthy priorities that he is. But as we made it to the end of the meeting, one of bullet points was:Â
Do NOT mess with animals in the building.Â
So I looked at my techs, and they looked at me, and when he got to the point, he was so scathing I actually just wanted to crawl under a rock and die. He said basically that he'd heard some reports about someone in the building handling animals that found their way in and got stuck, and that he just wanted to emphasize how insanely inappropriate that was, not to mention dangerous, and that if he needed to speak to anyone about it again, there would be severe consequences.Â
I was willing to just take the shame and move on. I was. But one of my techs is old. Old enough he could've retired two years ago. And his actual literal goal is to one day get angry, yell at someone, and storm out. That's how he wants to retire. So instead of biting his tongue like everyone else, he stood up and said: I hate the glue traps. You hate the glue traps. We all hate glue traps. But we've all sat here for years, ignoring the little things that get stuck in them, watching them die, and then Bab's comes in, and he is the first person in decades to give enough of a shit to start pulling the lizards out. And I don't want him to stop.Â
Get humane traps or shut up but we are not going back to the old way of just letting things starve.Â
And my boss actually froze up. He got all wide eyed and stared at Marc, and then the other techs jumped in, and there was a very small but intense rebellion in the meeting and my boss kept trying to interrupt while getting absolutely bowled over by this gang of angry middle aged air force vets, and eventually he just wentÂ
I will speak with Babylon about this afterwards! After! And then he will speak with everyone else, but I have more points to cover.Â
So they went silent, and my boss rushed through the last five minutes, and we all adjounred. The techs really didn't like that I was going in alone - they thought our boss was going to try and shout me into compliance. Marc in particular was like, Look, if he tries bullying you, stand your ground, and if he threatens anything, just come get us, and we'll give him hell.Â
So armed with that, I went to my boss's office. I sat in the chair across from him, and he kept his composure for maybe five seconds before just flopping back into his chair.Â
I had no idea you were saving lizards, he said, but I'm glad you are. I always hated seeing them die in the glue. Â
I wasn't expecting that. I was about to ask him what the comment from the meeting was about then, but he answered that before I even got the chance.
A snake got into the building last week, and - someone picked it up and chased a coworker around. Turns out that coworker was severely afraid of snakes, and now it's a shitshow. We're a small site, and now I can't ask those two to work together anymore, to say nothing about how the snake fared after all that. Being upset about that is a reasonable thing, right?Â
And he gave me a look like he actually wanted an answer, so I said Yeah, totally, chasing a coworker around with a snake is a dick move. Especially if that coworker is already afraid of snakes.Â
And he said Exactly! and then we sat there a few moments longer. He looked so incredibly tired that I did, actually, feel kind of bad for him. And then he somehow managed to sink even further into his chair, and said
Look, I know I'm not a good guy. But I'm not evil. I'm not some sort of crazy asshole that's going to demand that everyone watch lizards starve to death. When you go back downstairs, could you try to pass that on? That I'm not evil?Â
I said Sure because it wasn't a hard request, and he looked relieved. I actually made it halfway out before I realized I had a question.Â
Who grabbed the snake? I asked.Â
Not supposed to talk about it, he said. But whoever comes to mind first is probably right.Â
ThatGuy? I asked. And he looked me in the face, nodded his head yes, and said No.Â
---
The techs seemed a little disappointed that they didn't get to storm the boss's office, but were otherwise in good spirits. They were actually a little bit embarrassed to hear about the snake story - apparently, it wasn't much of a secret. It'd just slipped their minds because it happened three weeks ago.Â
We did maintenance after that, the same basic repairs we did every week. The meeting had been stressful and it was a relief to work with my hands. When the parts were reinstalled, everything cleaned and smooth and ready to go, Marc found me again.Â
You know what the lesson of today is? he asked. And there were quite a few answers to that that I could have taken - from don't assume the worst of people to be careful with how you spend your trust - we all need it more than we think.Â
But instead I said what? because I wanted to hear what his answer was going to be.Â
That I got your back, he said. Then he clapped one very, very large hand on my shoulder, gave it a good squeeze, and walked back to dosimetry lab.
---
The next day, Marc gave me a package and told me to open it in my office. I was suspicious, but I followed the request.
Cardboard gave way to a small baggie, obviously full of fabric, which opened to reveal a t-shirt that read
"I Am the Motherfucking Lizard King."
I looked at it, I loved it, and then I got an idea. I went to my boss's office and knocked on the door. When he opened it, I asked him if he would be willing to allow something very unprofessional to happen for morale building purposes.
How unprofessional? he asked. I held the shirt up in answer. He gave the shirt a short look over and snorted.
You can wear it on weeks without customers, he said. Which just so happened to include that week.
I'll pass on that it came with your blessing, I replied, and he looked oddly relieved.
Thanks, he said. And then I went downstairs.
---
The techs were very, very happy to see the shirt. And while my boss's reputation remains in tatters, and probably will be until he moves (or dies), the next time there was a meeting, there was quite a bit less complaining about how mere presence. Which is, I guess, a start.
We'll see if he squanders it.

things you do that make svt bust quick (nsfw)
seungcheol â; tell him how good heâs doing
heâs a leo male⌠please stroke his ego.
tell him how you love his cock, how big he is, how it hits so deep inside you. tell him âright there,â and âkeep going,â and to do it âjust like that.â
stroke his possessive side too. tell him no one else can fuck you like he can, no one else can stretch you out so good, no one else can make you cum like he does. tell him that your pussy is made for him only.
be loud for him. god, he loves hearing you moan. say his name, beg for more, sob, whimper, gasp for him. donât be shy about it. itâll only be a matter of time before you butter him up enough to make him cum.
jeonghan â; beg
everyone knows yoon jeonghan likes having people at his mercy. he gets a little unhinged when he has power over someoneâso imagine what he gets like when youâre writhing on his cock, gasping his name so sweetly, your eyes glimmering with tears as he fucks you hard.
âwhat is it, pretty?â he asks, and like the devil he is, he slows the movement of hips, pulling out of you until his tip barely kisses your also weeping hole. itâs torture for him too, to leave the hot, tight haven that is your cunt, but to him itâs worthwhile.
âwanna cum, hannie,â you whimper.
âhm⌠i donât know if i should let you yet,â he says, dipping back inside just an inch. years of him being yours means you donât miss the tiny strain in his voice that betrays his perfectly collected demeanour.
âplease, hannie, please, please, please, let me cum. iâve been so good,â you sob, squeezing your thighs where they rest on his hips.
you watch as a switch flips in his eyes within a millisecond. a grin lights up his face and he shudders, and heâs sliding back inside you, fucking in and out of you harder and faster than before. safe to say it doesnât take long for either of you to cum after that.
joshua â; make eye contact
his pretty doe eyes make staring into them your favourite thing in the world, and if you asked him his favourite pastime, heâd tell you that it was gazing into your irises.
itâs also his biggest weakness. from the way youâve got your mouth wrapped around his dick, throat gagging even though youâre only halfway down it, joshua feels his sanity slipping away. his fingers curl into the bedsheets below as he watches you work him, revels in the warmth of your tongue sliding up and down his shaft.
when your eyes flick up to meet his he doesnât stand a chance. not with how glimmering they are, brimming softly with tears, yet swimming with adoration. with worship.
heat washes over his whole body, heâs gasping, and the salty warmth of his release pools on your tongue.
jun â; put his fingers in your mouth
when junhui gets inside you he has a one-track mind. he becomes rapt with pleasure, drunk from the warm squeeze of your pussy around him, focused on nothing but the sensation of you, the sight of you under him, the sound of you in his ears.
the effect you have on him is dangerous, because youâre equally obsessed with him as he is with you, and youâre not afraid to show him.
and you love his hands, he knows you doâknows how you love his slender fingers and their soft touches all over you, inside you. your brain is cloudy, fogged by lust when you take him by his wrist and bring his fingers to your mouth. your eyes sparkle as your lips wrap around his index finger, your soft tongue swirling around it.
junâs mouth parts with awe, his eyes growing round. a second later, he stills inside you with a gasp of your name, like heâs praying to you, all the while youâre sucking on his finger like a devil.
hoshi â; scratch him
heâs a little bit of a freak, and a masochist too.
when heâs got you folded in half, hitting all the right spots inside you, you cling to him in every way you canâfingers grabbing at his biceps, his shoulders. one particular stroke of his hips has you squealing.
your nails sink into his skin, crying out his name as you rake them down the toned planes of his back. the second you do, soonyoung is grunting, hips stilling, cock twitching as a sticky warmth suddenly floods your cervix.
the worst part about it is how he always has the stupidest, most shit-eating smug grin on his face when he examines your damage in the bathroom after, and you know that if he could, he would post the selfies he takes in the mirror all over instagram. whatâs even worse though? seeing your marks makes him hard again.
wonwoo â; cry
youâre such a sensitive little thing and wonwoo adores you. one orgasm on his fingers and youâre already overstimulatedââbut baby, i havenât even put my cock in you yet,â heâll coo.
like itâs your fault you have a boyfriend with skilled fingers and a skilled tongue and who knows you inside and out like the back of his hand, who knows where to touch you and how hard and what pace makes you writhe the most.
by the time he does get inside you, youâre gasping and whining and clawing at him, tears springing to your eyes because heâs so big and so deep, but the stretch is so addictive that itâs dizzying. his voice is low and husky as he mutters to you a mixture of teases and praise, calls you his pretty girl and then laughs at sensitive you are, pretends heâs not on the verge of coming from the sound of your choked gasps.
your belly starts to pulse with that familiar heat and by then youâre keening for him, whimpering a mixture of his name and endless pleas as it starts to become too much. your sobs go straight to his cock, and itâs only a matter of time before he reaches his climax, and his gasps of pleasure harmonise with your own cries.
woozi â; pull his hair
heâs been growing his hair out. after all your begging, he finally listened. in a way, though, itâs backfired a little on you, because the longer it gets the more insane you become. and the thing is you never expected him to let it get to his shouldersâand still he doesnât plan on cutting it. well, good. you would kill him if he did.
when his face is between your legs youâre nothing short of a feral animalâyour hips bucking wild against his mouth, your legs trembling on his shoulders, your fingers, of course, grabbing fistfuls of his hair. he makes you whine when he pulls away from your needy, sticky cunt to tsk at you, tells you to cut it out and keep your hands to yourself. (itâs because heâs about to cream his pants).
when he bends you in half beneath him, ruts into you hard and fast and relentless, you need leverage. your hands land on the back of his neck, fingertips grazing at his roots, then one slam of his hips into yours has his cock bumping against the most sensitive spot inside you and your grasping at his hair and crying his name so desperately. no longer can he hold back, strained groans slipping past his lips as he lets go inside you.
dokyeom â; hold his hand
a sentimental sweetheart, seokmin is an utter romantic who thinks that being inside of you, whether in your mouth or your pussy, is intimacy in its purest form. now imagine showing him just how much more intimate things can get.
heâs losing his mind at the feeling of your tongue swirling around the head of his cock, the way you swallow his length down making him see stars. he canât bare to look at youâhe needs to focus on taking deep breaths so that he doesnât cum straight down your throat. then he feels you grabbing at one of his hands, lacing your fingers together, and no amount of deep breathing can stop him from releasing.
and when he fucks you itâs no differentâitâs him in near tears, whimpering your name between incoherent words over and over, and as soon as you take his hand in yours and your fingers wrap around his, thereâs nothing else he can do but succumb to his own pleasure.
mingyu â; take control
heâs big and strong; strong enough to put you into whatever position he wants, to make you cum at his command, to do just as he pleases with you.
but thatâs exactly why he likes it when you slap him around a little.
you canât exactly bend him into doggy or use your weight to keep him pinned to the mattress, but you can sit yourself pretty on his cock and ride him teasingly slow. you can tell him heâs not allowed to touch you or youâll stop moving. you can tell him to kiss you, to go slower, to go harder.
you can sit up and put a hand around his throat, still your hips, and tell him he can fuck you himself if he wants to cum. and heâll do just thatâand as soon as you utter the words, heâs gone, whining out curses as he fills you up in white, warm spurts.
minghao â; whisper in his ear
minghao often tells you how he adores your voice. when you talk to him heâs entranced, and heâs always been more of a listener than a talker, and itâs perfect because you always have so much to say, and minghao will listen to every last word of yours.
your voiceâminghaoâs kryptonite, his achillesâ heel, his undoing and, oh, the way you moan for him when heâs got you on his cock is enough to make his heart stop beating. the perverted part of him wishes he could record you, hide the file away on his phone and listen to you when heâs overseas and he canât call you. maybe heâll ask you about that, if he can find the courage.
the final blow is when youâre getting close. you lean in, right next to his ear, so close that your breath sends shivers along his skin. âplease, hao, iâm so close,â you whisper, yet you still sound so desperate and depraved. âyou are too, right? cum for me, please. iâll cum for you too.â
so he does just thatâminghao gives in and lets his orgasm wash over him, fingertips drawing circles on your clit until mere moments later he hears the sound of your own cresting pleasure and he feels himself getting hard again.
seungkwan â; wrap your legs around him
itâs a fact that seungkwan loves to be close to you. if he could, he would crawl inside of your skin and live in your heart. but since he canât, constant physical touch is the next best thing.
he likes to think he has relatively good self-controlâŚmost of the time. like when heâs buried to the hilt inside you, heâs incredible at keeping in rhythm, fucking into you at the most perfect pace for both you and him, hitting the spot that makes your back arch off the bed.
somehow he never sees it comingâwhen your arms are snaked around his neck and youâre holding onto him for dear life as he takes you to heaven, and your legs wrap around his waist so that you can pull him in impossibly deep. then you bring his face to yours, and you have the most irresistible little pout on your face when you make your request. âcum inside me, seungkwannie?â
and itâs not like he has much choice with the way youâve trapped him inside of you, but thatâs the very reason why the next second heâs pumping you full, because when itâs you, how is he supposed to have any self-control?
vernon â; touch yourself
itâs not like vernon can last long in general. he thinks youâre the hottest thing alive and heâs so enamoured with you that itâs too much for him sometimes, but you best believe heâll put his all into holding out just for you.
there are times, however, where heâs just a man. and whatâs a man to do when he has a goddess riding his dick? when your tits look so pretty, bouncing in his face, when you have that fucked out look in your eyes, when you feel like heaven and hell all at once?
and what the fuck is a man to do when your hand drifts down between your legs, to your aching clit, and your fingers start to rub it in circles, or when your other hand grasps one of your tits and tugs at one of your own nipples? and your sweet pussy clenches around him so tight when you do, clamps down on him in an hot, wet embrace, so what else can he do but cum?
dino â; say âi love youâ
another sweet, sentimental boy. lee chan is head over heels for you, enamoured, obsessed, smitten, infatuated with you⌠the list of things he is around you is endless.
it shows in the way he fucks youâalways takes his time with you, never rushes taking you apart. every touch of his is intentional, meant to set you both ablaze. when he eats you out to prep you for his cock, he has to try not to cum in his pants from how pretty you are.
where he really doesnât stand a chance however is when heâs bottomed out inside you, as close as he can possibly be with youâso close youâre practically one. the sweetest sounds fall from your lips, spurring on his expert thrusts.
his forehead is plastered to yours, the pair of you revelling in one anotherâs sweat and gasps for air. âi love you,â you confess gently, and chan falls over the edge of pleasure not a moment later.

Cw: Nsfw
Taking one of Simonâs balaclava from the closet, inhaling the lingering musk snd cologne scent while rubbing your pussy needily on the bedsheet. He went on a short mission for a few days, and you missed him, miss how he call you sweetheart with that gruff voice, miss how he sit you on his lap, murmuring sweet nothings while his hand
sneaks pass the waistband of your panties, pinching and flicking your clit to warm you up for his big cock, miss how his veiny and sturdy arms wrap around you while you fall asleep while basking in each otherâs presence.
You kiss the balaclava on where his lips should be, but thatâs not enough, the ache in your chest leads you to scramble to the closet again, taking out a pair of his skeleton gloves, putting those far-too-large gloves on as you slump down on the bed you two shared again, mimicking how he kneaded and rolled the sweet spot hidden between your slick folds, until you finally reach your high, dampening his gloves with your juices.
You tuck the used balaclava and gloves deep inside a discreet drawer, welcoming Simon back home the next day. He got a crazy amount of gloves and balaclava, sure he wouldnât notice missing a pair or two, right? You try to convince yourself, till the day you think you finally get a chance to wash those fabric stained with the evidence of your guilty pleasure, that he appears behind you silently and catch you scrubbing them.
You have no one to blame other than yourself when getting put over his knees moments later, pajamas shorts pulled down, ass in the air and whining every time he lands a light slap on your reddened buttocks.
âThink I wouldnât notice, hmm?â He rubs the spot he just hit gently, soothing that delicious tingle briefly âHow many times did you come with my balaclava and my gloves?â
You look back at him, trying to respond with the vibrating dildo deep inside your squelching cunt messing your mind. âOne ti-One- nghâŚâ your incoherentness brings yourself another slap, this time land carefully just above your stretched cunt and on the clit.
âSay it clearly, princess, canât understand when youâre talking in moans.â Simon rubs your skin after the soft smack again, just like what he did whenever he gives you a teasing slap, but him rolling your over-sensitive bud that just got a sweet slap, only flares up your desire and makes you unable to think straight, his fingers and the dildo occupied your thoughts as you manage to answer more comprehensibly.
âOneâŚonly one timeâŚâ Your staccato reply receives a feign pity glance from him.
âOnly one time? poor girl.â He grabs the base of the vibrating dildo and thrust in and out âLook how you lube this dildo with your juices so well, love. Finally satisfied?â
âNo! NoâŚpleaseâŚâ You paw at the bedsheets desperately, happy that he might end his âpunishmentâ soon, yet afraid that you wonât get the thing you truly craved. âNeed you, Simon, pleaseâŚ! need you insideâ
He grins imperceptibly, though the arrogance in his heart is satiated. Thatâs what he wants to hear, hear you say out loud about how much you need him, how only him can fuck you in the way others canât.
Pulling the dildo out, seeing how your cunt grabbing onto it like you try to swallow it back in, he fish out his cock, standing straight and leaking profusely from enjoying the show âNo need to feel empty for the lost, sweetheart, youâll get what you deserve now.â
Simon press the tip of his length at your entrance, looking at you with smugness within those brown eyes, and he knows itâs going to be a long night when you gaze back with droopy eyes, still coming down from the edge, with a bliss-out smile spread across your glossy lips.

⡠First Time?
Synopsis . When you get paired with the campus asshole, Sukuna, for a project, the last thing you expect to learn about him is that heâs a damn virgin. Nor did you expect to be the one to change that. / Pairing . virgin!Sukuna x fem!reader / Content . afab!reader, oral sex (m!receiving), premature ejac, non-curse college au, dirty talk, pet names, degrading, porn w plot, teasing, taunting, filth, etc. / wc . 6k
A/N: ty to the nonnie on my main who asked if Iâd ever write virgin!jjk men :3 [MDNI]
Who wouldâve thought?
Of all people, Sukuna, a virgin? It just didnât make sense.
He was this stand-offish asshole who most people respected out of pure fear. He didnât exactly do parties and yet you could always find him at one. Heâd always have some chick on his arm or even in his lap so, in what world would anyone with a brain assume heâs actually never been inside a woman before?
And to make his lack of game all the more unbelievable, heâs even rumored to have a big dickâ itâs like some overly well-known campus fact about the guy.
So, again, what reason would anyone have to think the guy was a virgin?
Certainly not you, of course. And you donât expect to be the only person to find out such information either.
The way you find out is probably even more bizarre than the fact itself. You and him had little to no reason to ever interact with each other. You werenât some shy nerd who holed herself up in her room all day or anything but you werenât much of the party type other.
You were stuck somewhere in the middle of all that, vicariously living through some of your friends who had better things going for them.
As such, there was no real reason for you and Sukuna to cross paths. He never even had a reason to acknowledge your existence until the two of you are paired up together for a project in the one class you happen to take together.
ââ
The background noise is the chatter of your fellow classmates and their own project partners, you find your partner grumbling out a low, âWhat?â In response to your last statement, having hardly heard a thing you said.
âI said,â You huff, sitting beside the man in question as today marks week two of you being paired up with him for this semesterâs project, âWe should be meeting up outside of class too. We could get his knocked out in like a day if you just-â
âOh that,â Sukuna cuts off casually. Seated all slouched back in his seat, his legs sprawled out in that signature manspread of hisâ he rolls his eyes at your little reminder, âYou said somethinâ about that last week.â
You speak through slightly gritted teeth, fighting the headache heâs about to give you from this conversation alone, âAll the more reason for you to take it into consideration. The faster we get this done, the less we have to deal with each other.â
As you say that, you glance at him only to find his eyes directly on yours already. Heâs got such lazy posture, his head tilted slightly whilst he gazes at you so intently, and his big muscular arms folded across his chest. Even wearing a black hoodie and gray sweats, he still looks as attractive as everâ mean low-lidded crimson eyes locked on yours, tattooed face so beautifully defined, and rosy lips pulled into such an uninterested little frown.
Up until your words hit his ears properly, âThe less we have to deal with each other, huh?â Sukuna repeats, narrowing his eyes even further at you, âYou barely even know me ând yet you want nothing to do with me already.â
âI know enough about you, Sukuna,â You say with a sigh, âAnd you hardly contribute to this project as is. Which only proves that everything they say about you is probably true.â
He arches a brow, his interest piquing, âAnd what exactly do people say about me?â
You let off a light scoff, âDonât act like you donât know.â
âBut I donât know,â Sukuna tells you honestly, maroon eyes boring into yours.
You stare for a moment as you try to decipher whether or not heâs being honest right now. How does he not know what people say about him? Everyone talks about his brooding personality very openly.
âThey say youâre an ass,â You eventually say to the man.
To which his lips twitch into a slight smirk, âAnd you believe that?â
âSeeing as Iâve asked you to, at the very least, type your name on this document and you havenât even done that yet,â You scoff, âYes.â
The two of you mildly glare at one another for a moment before Sukuna leans up in his seat. Breaking eye contact for just a moment to look at his laptop, he swiftly moves to open up that shared document of yours and types his name out with a heavy sigh.
After which, heâs slouching back again and looking at you, âDonât believe everything people tell you, woman.â
You roll your eyes at him, âWhat? Are you not fond of rumors? That still doesnât negate the fact that youâre an assho-â
âWhen do you want to meet up?â Sukuna grumbles out almost reluctantly, watching the way you pause and swallow thickly as he catches you off-guard.
Heâs almost even intrigued by how quickly you bounce back, despite being caught by surprise, âFriday. Are you free?â
âUnfortunately,â He grumps.
You give him a little shrug, âGood. Iâll see you then.â
And that was it. That was how each and every interaction with you and Sukuna went. Bickering back and forth about him not doing shit to help you with something thatâll affect your grade majorly, criticizing you about being too focused and needing to relax every now and then, and even calling you a stuck-up little brat one timeâ it was safe to say, you and Sukuna didnât get along too well.
Not that you minded anyway. He wasnât your first partner to care little about their grade so, you knew how to deal with these kinds of people by now. Typically, you indulge yourself in their craving to ârelaxâ just once and then they promise to start helping. Youâve gone down that path before and itâs worked for you then so you assume things will go the same way with Sukuna.
Plus, you guess you can give him a slight pass for his asshole attitude, at least he has a pretty face to look at. Dark ink always decorating his awfully smooth skin, deep dark yet beautiful ruby-shaded eyes boring into whatever it is his focus on, and broad shoulders looming over your smaller figure every time he stands in front of youâ you can't help but feel both attracted and intimidated by the man.
ââ
Which is exactly why when you open your apartment door for the scheduled meetup that Friday to crane your head up at him, youâre swallowing thickly to settle your nerves. Youâve never been alone with the man so of course youâre a bit nervous.
Especially with the way he gazes down at you like thatâs exactly where you belong: beneath him. His eyes are filled to the brim with intensity and yet heâs only just set them on you. Wearing a noticeable black compression shirt and those signature gray sweets of his, he almost appears as though heâd just come from the gym.
And just as you take in his appearance, he very openly takes in yoursâ his eyes raking over your body and taking in every single inch of you. After all, just as it was your first time alone with him, it was his first time seeing you dress so comfortably. He doesnât even try to hide the way he stares at your tits peeking out from the rather thin spaghetti-strap top you were wearing, his eyes soon trailing down slowly to those tauntingly short shorts you had on.
âSo,â Sukuna swipes his tongue over his lips and cocks his head to the side, hands stuffed in his pockets and eyes yet to lift from your legs, âAre you gonna stare at me all day or are you gonna let me in?â
You blink out of whatever little daze you were in, having found yourself gazing at his chest far longer than you meant to. It was right in front of your face after all, how could you look anywhere else? And his shirt was so damn tight, the fabric hugging his well-toned body perfectly, so much so that you swore you could make out piercings on his-
Sukuna leans forward suddenly, his face nearing yours to gain your full attention, âIf you keep staring at me like that, Iâm gonna assume you invited me over for something else-â
âSorry,â You chirp out as you clear your throat and awkwardly step back a bit to let him in, âYou can come in.â
Nodding, Sukuna slips by you and you shut your apartment door behind him. Then, youâre quick to lead him over to your living room where youâd previously been working on your project.
The two of you are hasty to take a seat on your couch, both of you only a few inches apart from one another whilst you lean toward your coffee table and log into your already open laptop. Sukunaâs eyes are all over you as always, studying your side profile, your intent focus on the screen in front of you, and even the way you-
âDid you even bring anything?â You suddenly ask before you glance at the man.
Sukuna quickly meets your gaze, ripping his eyes off of wherever theyâd been previously, âWas I supposed to?â
âSukuna,â You sigh out, âPlease tell me youâre joking right now.â
He swallows at the mere sound of his name rolling off your tongue in that scolding tone of yoursâ heâs heard such a tone from you time and time again and yet, for whatever reason, it never seems to annoy him.Â
âIâm not.â He says plainly.
âHow are we supposed to work on this if you-,â You cut yourself off and decide not to even attempt arguing with him. Arguing wonât change the fact that he showed up with nothing. âJust uhm,â You glance elsewhere for a second before an idea comes to mind and you place your laptop down and stand up, âStay here.â
Sukuna doesnât say anything. He merely watches as you huff and walk off, swiftly exiting the living room and disappearing down a nearby hall. He swears he finds himself looking at you a bit more than intended. Especially as you walked off, his eyes dropping to your ass and those damn shorts of yours.
Even when youâre out of his sight, he still finds himself staring in the direction of which you went, almost unable to look away for whatever strange reason.
That lasts for a few minutes until he snaps out of it and leans back against the couch, tossing his head back and letting out a long sigh. You soon return to find him with an arm stretched along the back of the couch, his legs spread as usual, and his eyes up on the ceiling.
He doesnât even notice youâve returned until he feels something placed in his lap. Looking down, Sukuna finds your laptop kindly set on top of him. To which his brows furrowed in confusion and he looked at you to see you sitting on the floor in between the couch and the coffee table with a paper and pencil in front of you.
âWhatâs this?â Sukuna scoffs.
You donât even spare him a glance as you begin writing something down, âHow weâll get things done.â He opens his mouth to say something but then youâre looking back at him with a glare, âI already organized the parts of this project that you have to do so, since itâs on my computer, you can work on that and Iâll work with what I remember.â
You wholeheartedly expected him to find something about this to disagree with you on but, to your surprise, he simply nods and redirects his focus to your laptop immediately.
And then, the two of you work exactly like that for the remainder of that little study session.
ââ
Sukunaâs not terrible to work with when itâs just you and him. If anything, heâs rather cooperative and a lot smarter than he leads on.Â
Which is why a solid two hours of productivity flies by surprisingly smoothly with him. If you asked him a question, he answered. Told him to do something, heâd say something snarky, and then do whatever it is youâve instructed anyway.
It all went so perfectly up until he let out a really heavy sigh, âAlright, Iâve had enough for this.â Sukuna says casually.
Heâs been repeating a similar phrase every thirty minutes or so but he usually gets right back to work after getting ignored by you. This time though, you get the feeling heâs serious when he pushes your laptop off of his lap and places it forward on the coffee table.
Itâs then that you frown, âOh câmon, we were getting so much done,â You comment as you glance back to him.
He shrugs, âI canât keep looking at that damn screen, itâs giving me a headache.â
âOf course it is,â You utter sarcastically, rolling your eyes whilst you place your pencil down and throw your arms up to stretch, âFine then, we can take a break.â
Sukunaâs brows lift in surprise. He didnât expect you to listen to him, âGood.â He hums, âI was getting bored as well.â
You scoff, âWere you?â
âYeah, can we do something else?â He asks.
Turning around, you rotate the way youâre sitting so that youâre facing him and your back is resting against your coffee table. âLike what?â You muse, meeting his low-lidded gaze.
âTalk,â Sukuna says.
Thatâs it? He wanted a break to talk to you? Your eyes are narrowing at him before you even realize, âTalk?â You repeat with a scoff, âSeriously?â
He nods, âMhm.â
âWhat do you wanna talk about, Sukuna?â As you ask him that, you watch the way his eyes casually slide down to your lips.
Does he mean to be this indiscreet with his looks? Or is he eyeing you down like that on purpose?
The man shrugs, âAnything outside of fuckinâ school.â
You laugh at that, âOkay, I can work with that.â
He tilts his head at you and licks his lips, âYeah?â Something about your little laugh threw him off.Â
âMhm,â You hum as you look down at your hand, fiddling with your nails a bit, âThe rumors⌠are they true?â
Thrown off yet again, Sukunaâs brows pinch together. âRumors?â He echoes in a genuinely confused tone, âWhat rumors, woman?â
The sound of your scoff makes him stiffen in his seat. Almost in an instant, the atmosphere had changed suddenly. âCâmon, donât play dumb,â You tease, lifting your gaze to him again, âThe rumors about you.â
He gives you a perplexed look and itâs almost as though you could see the gears in his head turning. âIf you know something, say it.â He demands.
You sigh, âSukuna, do you seriously hear nothing people say about you?â
Sukuna shrugs, âI donât care enough to remember. So what is it? What rumor?â
Youâre just curious. You swear thatâs all it was. And, naturally, since he seemed to have warmed up to youâ of course you wanted to know if that rumor about his dick was true. Youâre both adults and itâs just a silly question. Plus, with the way heâs been looking at you all afternoon, youâre sure he wonât mind answering you with a simple yes or no.
Glancing to the side, your shoulders lift a bit, âItâs uh, rather intimate.â You hush out.
Sukuna narrows his eyes at you, âIntimate?? An intimate rumor about me?â
His emphasis on himself makes your eyes flick back over to him. âYeah, are you sure you donât know what they say about you??â You ask again.
âPositive. Now speak, what is it they say?â Sukuna huffs impatiently, even more curious about this little rumor after the mention of it being intimate. After all, heâs never-
âPeople say you have a big dick,â You utter way too casually.
So nonchalantly that it makes him choke, a choke you donât mess with the way he clears his throat and sits up a little. âWhat?â He rasps out.
You bat those stupidly false innocent eyes at him, âI didnât stutter,â Your tone dips into something different and he catches every bit of it, âPeople say you have a big dick, is it true?â
Sukuna clears his throat and for the first time, he glances away from you. Then, he opens and closes his mouth, contemplating his next words carefully before they soon fall from his lips, âYou wanna find out?â
His offer spurs a shift in your seat from you as you scoot closer to him ever so slightly, âYou wanna show me?â You ask boldly, your tone direct, and not even a flicker of hesitation present.
âDo I want to-,â Sukuna pauses, his eyes scanning the entirety of your seated frame as you inch closer to him, âWhat?â He huffs, swallowing thickly.
You move to stand on your knees and lean forward to the couch, soon propping your chin up on your palm as you look at him, âShow me,â You chuckle, âI asked if you wanted to show me, Sukuna.â
He blinks, âShow you my cock?â
You shrug, âYeah.â
The air is so thick right now, Sukunaâs not sure how exactly he can play this off without making a fool of himself. He gulps yet again, only to watch as your eyes start to drop down along his body.
âStop,â He rushes out, âKeep your eyes up here. On mine,â He commands in a low tone, earning your gaze once more.
And then itâs quiet for a moment. Heâs staring at you and youâre obediently keeping your eyes up on his. Sukuna hates it but he doesnât know what to say or do from here. The last thing he wanted was for you to find out his little secret.Â
Itâs like he was waiting for a fucking pin to drop, something to break the silence. Yet, his mind was going blank and words were failing him at the moment. Heâs flirted with women before, plenty of times actually, effortlessly evenâ but for whatever reason, as you sit there with those stupidly pretty eyes staring at him, his mind simply flakes on him.
Heâs like that for a minute longer until you move. So subtly too, sliding a hand to his thigh, leaning forward slightly, batting your lashes at him, âSukuna?â You whisper.
His hips are rolling upward slightly at the sound of his name alone. âW-What?â He stammers, mentally cursing himself a thousand times over.
âIf you donât wanna show me you can jusâ say no,â You hum, smiling a bit, âYâknow that, right?â
He scoffs, âOf course I know that, woman.â
âIf you know that thenâŚâ Your fingers lightly squeeze his thigh and you tilt your head, âAre you gonna tell me or show me whether or not those rumors are true?â
Something simply clicks inside Sukunaâs head. Rose-tinted lips cracking into a smirk, the man spreads his legs further and slouches back into the couch, âFind out for yourself since youâre so curious.â
Your eyes go wide, âWhat?â
Sukuna scoffs lightly, moving one of his arms from the back of the couch and placing his hand over his crotch. Of course, your gaze sinks down to his veiny hand, watching as he palms a stupidly large bulge in his sweats.
Your breath hitches a bit, âI-I-â
You donât even get the chance to get it out before heâs cutting you off, âCâmere,â Sukuna hums in that low voice of his.
âWhat?â You whisper.
You and him make eye contact again and he nods his chin toward the space in between his legs. Nothing can really explain why you follow his gesture and quickly find yourself sitting in between his legs, taking a deep breath as you settle your hands on his thighs.
Sliding your touch up and up and up until your fingers graze his hand. The same hand that was resting on top of that aching bulge of his.
Sukuna slowly lifts his hand up and away, relaxing his arm on the back of the couch again as he stares down at you. Cocking his head to the side, âWell? Feel it.â He huffs.
You donât even hesitate. Trailing your fingers upward carefully until you feel the outline of his cock beneath your fingertips, gulping as you drag your hand up to cup his length in your hand firmly, and smirking at the way his cock twitches furiously beneath your small touch.
Sukunaâs mouth falls open for a second but youâre too engrossed in feeling him to notice. He lets out a shuddered breath as he watches the way you grope his steadily growing erection. His head even tosses back and his fingers dig into the couch for a moment.
âIt is big,â You whisper to yourself, your words only making him twitch more within your hand.
âFuck,â Sukuna grits out lowly, hips unconsciously lifting to press himself further against you.
His curse earns your attention. You quickly glance up to him and see the way heâs got his head tossed back, Adam's apple bobbing with every heavy gulp he takes, and his chest rising and falling rather quickly.
You lift your hand carefully and decide to test something out. Slowly, you lean forward and just barely press your lips against his clothed cock.
Sukunaâs whole body reacts. He gasps louder than he means to and heâs weaving his fingers through your hair faster than he realizes, palming your scalp as he quickly looks down at you. âT-The fuck are you doing? Huh?â He huffs while gripping onto your hair.
You lift your head a bit but he keeps you in place, despite his question to you. âI justâŚâ Youâre not exactly sure you can explain yourself.
And by this point, Sukuna doesnât think he cares enough to hear an excuse from you, ââŚYou what? You wanna see it?â
All you can do is give him a little nod before he moves his free hand to the drawstring of his sweatpants. Then you're quick to help him tug them down until his boxers are revealed to youâ a noticeable dampness in the fabric right where his leaking tip is. Was that because of you?
Before you can dawn on your own questions, Sukunaâs moving to tug his cock out. And fuck is he even bigger revealed before your eyes. With an upward curve, such an angry flushed tip, precum dripping from the slit of his fat cockhead, veins decorating his shaft and-
Shit, you were drooling. Howâd you get like this again?? Ah, who cares?
âSukuna,â You breathe out, ripping your eyes away from his cock just to look up at him.
He was almost panting, dark maroon eyes pouring down into yours, face flushed with different shades of red and pink, his lips parted softlyâ hell, he looked like he was in heat or something.
Gulping before he answers you, Sukuna clears his throat and his voice is already husky, âWhat?â
You shift against the floor, your hands relaxing against his large thighs, âCan I-â
âYeah,â He cuts off. Lord knows if you got that question out he was going to lose his damn mind.
You raise a brow and lean forward, keeping your eyes on his while your lips near his tip, âYeah?â
The last thing you get from him is a nod before youâre parting your lips. And from that moment forward, it all goes downhill. Everything from the way youâre sitting in between his legs to that initial connection of your plush lips against his drooling cock had Sukunaâs mind spinning.
Heâs never been sucked off before. Hell, the farthest heâs gone as far as sexual activities are concerned is a little bit of dry humping. But this? Oh hell, this was his first time and he had zero idea how he was going to keep that information away from you.
Especially when he feels your tongue slip from between your lips and swirl around the head of his cock, kittenly lapping up that slim layer of precum sitting so prettily on his tip.Â
âOh f-fuuck,â Sukuna groans huskily, the hand on your head gripping tighter.
You pull away from him slightly just to take in his expression and the way he tosses his head back. It was almost cute to you. The last thing you expected was for him to be so damn sensitive, you hardly did anything.
His sensitivity only worsens as you finally start wrapping your lips around his cock, feeling him throb when you sink your mouth down on him. Sukunaâs jaw goes slack and his brows twist up. He tries his best to hold it in but he canât help but moan at the way you leisurely suck on half of his lengthy cock.
Your saliva wets up the rest of his shaft and you make up for what your mouth hasnât reached yet with your hand, stroking him lightly whilst you take the rest of his girth in and out of your mouth. Rolling your tongue around him, pulling off just to messily spit and kiss on his blushing tip, and slobbering all over himâ Sukuna almost fucking kicked something with how good your mouth felt around him.
Heâs used his hand and other shit before but holy fuck, nothing, and he means nothing compares to that damn mouth of yours. The way you look with his cock stuffed right in between those lips heâs been staring at for God knows how longâ your lips all slick with spit, eyes rolling back the deeper you take him, and tongue sticking out every time you pull your mouth off of him.
You soon slip your mouth off of him and start jerking him off, focusing your tongue on his tip and slithering the wet muscle in between the slit of his cock, lathering your tongue up with his glistening precum.Â
The sound of Sukuna groaning makes you look up at him, finding his eyes on yours again. Heâs panting, trying his best to look like this wasnât phasing him but failing in every way with how flushed his face was.Â
Your tongue sticks out and your hand continues to slide up and down his cock as you tap his tip on your tongue, making his brows twist up.Â
He bites back a throaty sound, âHah⌠damn brat,â Sukuna huffs out as if to⌠degrade you?Â
You almost find it cute how clearly inexperienced he is, spitting a fat wad of spit onto his pretty wet tip and then smiling at him, âSukuna,â You coo, your hand gripping his shaft tighter, âIs this your first time?â
He instantly looks off to the side, the veins in his neck and along his jawline tensing as he grits his teeth. Since he decides to ignore your little question, you take it a step further and slide your hand down his cock, gripping his thick base firmly before taking him into your heavenly warm mouth again.
His expression breaks completely, âOh shit,â Sukuna moans, his hips bucking up into your mouth as you slide him deeper into your mouth than you did before.
Then his hand is pushing your head down further on instinct and heâs subtly rutting his hips up. You lift your head up despite his constant pushing, soon causing your head to bob up and down whilst you suck him off skillfully.
âJusâ like that,â Sukuna suddenly groans and you moan around his cock in reaction. To which he keeps giving your mouth mindless little thrusts, âDonât s-, agh, stop.â
Sucking him deeper and deeper before you move your hand completely, you suck in a deep breath of air through your nose, open up the very back of your throat, and sink all the way down, your lips meeting his pelvis as your eyes roll to the back of your head.
Sukuna kicks something. Probably your coffee table with the way one of his legs extends out so suddenly, a choked-out groan ripped from his throat as your little move was all it took for him to cum. And itâs so much too, hot thick ropes of cum spurting down your throat, his hand holding onto your head for dear life whilst a moan of your name rolls off his tongue.
Youâre still sucking too, pulling up only to swallow what heâs gifted you and then stick your tongue out. Laying it flat against his tip, you leisurely lick at him as if to beg for more and now the manâs pushing your head away for the first time.
When you lift your eyes up to him again, you notice heâs got his tattooed arm over his mouth and his lashes are batting softly at you. For such a big man, he was so ridiculously cute right now. Panting, sweating, cursing under his breath as if you couldnât hear him.
âYeah,â Sukuna utters suddenly, clearing his throat, âThat was⌠my first⌠time. I uh-â
âDo you want more?â Is the last thing you asked him before you were sitting back on your heels and he was stumbling to his feet.
You had to guide him through it of course but, Sukuna doesnât hesitate to stuff your face full of his cock again. You take him so kindly too, obediently sitting there with your hands gripping his thighs for support with every careful thrust of his hips.
He was trying to be gentle with you at first. Partially because he didnât know what the hell he was doing, and also because he just loved the initial entry into your mouth. Over and over, Sukuna slid his dick in and out of your mouth like he was possessed, addicted to the feeling of you greedily sucking on him.
He was still sensitive from his first orgasm but his cock had yet to go downâ twitching inside that sloppy mouth of yours, aching against your tongue, and dripping into the depths of your throat. Sukuna wasnât much of a talker but he damn sure let out a plethora of grunts and groans.
They were so husk too, coming from deep within his chest, some getting caught in his throat when he felt your tongue flick against a specific vein on the underside of his cock. His fat tip knocked into the back of your throat with a single heavy thrust before his hands were latching onto the sides of your head.
Again, heâs not much of a talker but, something seems to come over him all at once because soon heâs got his gaze locked down on the messy sight of you and heâs huffing out words before he realizes. âEyes up here, câmon, hah⌠look at me,â Sukuna grunts.
Your eyes are completely glossed over as they flutter up to him. A moan vibrates against his skin as you make such intimate eye contact with the man, feeling his hips pick up.
Sukuna nods, âGood girl,â He praises in a low purr, and fuck does that do wonders for you because your legs are squeezing together more than they were before and youâre whining against him. âFuck, yâlike that?â He huffs, earning a sloppy lilâ nod from you.
He then feels you hum, âM-Mhm.â And heâs got chills slipping up his spine in pleasure.
Cracking a lazy, lopsided, and almost fucked-out little smirk, Sukuna scoffs, âYeah? Fuck, behind all those g-glares ând-, agh, scolding me⌠this is all you wanted, hm? A throat full of cock?â
His words had you whining again, fluttering your lashes at him as your fingertips dug into his thighs a little. Sukuna eases his hips back slowly, tipping his head to the side as he gently caresses the side of your face with his thumb.
âMessy girl,â He hums deeply, biting his lower lip at the way youâre just drooling for more and more as he pulls himself out of your mouth completely. âJusâ look at this face,â Sukuna chuckles, âYâlook like a slut cryinâ like thatâ itâs cute.â
Blinking, you hadnât even realized you had a tear or two sliding down your face. Your mouth remains open for a second before he moves to rub his tip against your plump lips, smearing your spit and his cum all over the damn place with a little grin on his face.
ââKunaâŚâ You whisper, earning a quirk of his brow, âI canât believe youâre a virg-â
âDonât finish that sentence,â He grunts, moving a thumb to your chin to widen how open your mouth is for him, âJusâ⌠keep sittinâ there lookinâ pretty fâme,â Sukuna says.
You roll your eyes at him and all he can do is smile, pushing his hips forward again and easing his cock in between your lips. He slides in slowly until you can feel him pressing right against the back of your throat. To which he keeps himself there for a second, testing that gag reflex of yours and watching your eyes water.
Moving his hand back to the top of your head, he buries his fingers in your hair, âSo fuckinâ sexy like this,â Sukuna compliments, feeling you moan in response, âMâgonna cum again, stay j-just like that,â He breathes out heavily, his eyes rolling to the back of his skull before heâs throwing his head back.
And as if to coax his orgasm out, you carefully move a hand to cup his balls, sucking on his cock as best as you can and earning an accidental sound from his throat. The second your palm is felt against him, the moment he feels your tongue slicking against him, Sukuna whines.
Then his thighs are tensing and heâs groaning loudly as if to cover up the sound that just left his lips, filling your throat with his seed and then tugging your mouth off of him with a quick pull of your head. Youâre quick to swallow for yet a second time, letting out a needed cough after the fact while he stumbles back just a bit, his calves hitting the couch.
âVixen,â Sukuna growls.
You clear your throat and send a smile his way, âNot my fault you cum easy.â
Sukunaâs slow to sit back down on the couch to catch his breath, âTell anyone about this ând Iâll-â
âOh,â You suddenly purr, cutting him off as you lift yourself up from the ground. He watches with slightly widened eyes as you move to straddle him, âDonât tell me you thought we were done?â
Heâs at a loss for words all over again, his confidence suddenly getting caught in his throat and flying out the window. Your hands slip to his broad shoulders and you lean forward a little.
Sukunaâs hands shakily find their way to your waist as he stares up at you, âYou want more?â
You smirk, tilting your head at the dumbfounded male, âDonât you?â You ask in a sultry little whisper, making his sensitive cock twitch once more. âAt the very leastâŚâ Your lips slowly near his and heâs losing his breath, âTaste yourself, Sukuna.â
And then your lips are on his and heâs taking your tongue into his mouth. His grip on your waist tightens before he pulls you flush against him, feeling your crotch press right against his cock thatâs steadily twitching back to life.
The two of you share a heated and messy kiss, your hips carefully swaying against him to encourage his returning arousal. You canât really use curiosity as an excuse anymore, can you?
Well, you can. And you do with the way your hands slide down to his chest, your fingers slipping over his nipples to find exactly what youâd been curious about. You flick your fingers over his piercing there and Sukuna lets out a low hiss, prying his lips from yours and sending you a glare.
Not only did that little move of yours make his cock spring up completely but, you also notice the frown on his face.
Smiling at him, âSukunaâŚâ
âDonât.â He huffs.
âYou have nipple piercings?â You end up asking anyway in a happy little tone.
He grits his teeth slightly, ââŚObviously.â
Chuckling, you press a soft peck against his lips and whisper, âCan I see them?â
âNo.â He replies.
Part two.

âđđ đđđđ. dom!sylus x female reader. smut, pwp. gun play. degrading. cowgirl position. power trip. hunter - prey-ish? reader gets called âsweetie, kitten, sweet girl, slut.â not proof read !
âcareful, sweetie,â sylusâ husky voice rings in your ear. your hand trembles as you hold onto the large hand thatâs pointing a gun right at your chest. youâre sweatingânot knowing if itâs from fear or excitement.
the scene was a familiar one. youâve been in this position before - on his lap - with a gun involved. yet this time youâre both so intimately connected; your clothes scattered around the velvet chair, your hips trembling as you ride him. the same man you swore you hated.
âitâs quite funny, no?â sylus inquires, unable to hold back a grunt when you stare at him with such a drunken look in your eyes. youâre drunk on the adrenaline, the barrel of the loaded gun pressed against your flesh. a hint of a smirk tugs at his lips, âhow the tables have turned.â
your hips donât stop moving. you pull them up and push them back down, the back and forth rhythm not to be missed as well. he fills you up too wellâhis pink tip prodding at your sweet spot with precision. it doesnât help your case at all. especially when youâre whimpering and moaning about how good it feels.
itâs you whoâs supposed to hold that gun up to his chest. thatâs how it went last time, but alas. this is your second failed attempt to show your dominance over him, onychinusâ leader.
âitâs also quite pathetic to see you give in so easily to me, kitten,â sylus continues, teasing and belittling you. he presses the barrel right above your heart, his finger right on top of the trigger. your breath hitches and yet you canât help yourselfâyour body seeks the pleasure by itself. he scoffs, âso desperate. is it that good? does it feel that good to have me all the way inside you?â
you shiver at his words. you canât respond when youâre busy moaning the name of the silver haired man. heâs so big, youâre absolutely cock drunk on him. you donât want to admit it. you refuse to, though the answer to his question is still as clear as day.
âsh-shut up,â you try to retort through a choked up moan. the lewd noises of your wetness swallowing him up to the base repeatedly, with each thrust, echoes through the room. itâs not like sylus can deny the fact that it turns him on to see you like this neither; heâs rock hard.
sylus shakes his head with a low chuckle. âyou seem to have forgotten that you donât have the upper hand right now,â he sighs, the metal of the gun gliding up your skin to your chin, tilting your head back. your eyes widen and your hand squeezes his larger one that held the gun.
he bites back a groan when your sloppy cunt tightens up around him instinctively, âdo you need me to remind me of your place, sweetie?â
âor do you simply like putting yourself in harmâs way?â sylus adds, his free hand guiding your hips in a strangely gentle manner, just so his fat cock could hit all the right spots. âeither is fine by me. i love to tame disobedient prey like you.â
he leans his head back and his red eyes roam over your body. your skin is glimmering with sweat, the dim light in the room giving it a soft glow. his gaze stops at your bouncing tits for a second before returning to your face.
âiâi just want..â you stammer through whimpers. you can barely think, your thoughts are an absolute mess. you donât know if you should fear the fact that your life is being played with while youâre in such a compromising position, or if you should just enjoy the addicting sensations the situation brings along.
sylus encourages you to keep on talking by tapping the barrel of his gun beneath your chin again, his right eye faintly glowing a brighter red. you gulp as you bounce on his dick. you know your inner desires and needs have already been exposed to sylusâhe probably knows what you need, yet heâll still make you say it to him directly.
âi just.. need you,â you finally manage to form a proper sentence. youâre unable to take your words back. you donât care at the moment; youâre focused on chasing that sweet high.
sylusâs long fingers tighten their grip around your hip. he closes his eyes for a second to recompose himself before opening them again. âwho knew youâd be such a needy slut,â he mutters underneath his breath, trying to keep calm when you admitted to needing him in such a whiny tone.
âneed me, hm?â sylus grins as he finally got you to be vocal about your true needs. âneed me to fill you up that bad? to pound you brainless? to have you submit to me while i show this slutty cunt of yours what itâs like to have me fucking it?â
the words fall off his tongue with such ease. the sudden dirty talk and change in tone makes your stomach do flips. his free hand reaches up to tug your hair back harshly while he whispers that in your ear.
âyes, fuckâyes, need it so bad,â you nod mindlessly. you donât care about anything as youâre riding him. youâre willingly handing your destiny over to sylusâwhich drives him insane. the thrill of having that power over you makes his finger tremble on the trigger. the power trip is messing with his brain.
his eyes darken for a few seconds while he regains his composure. he canât wait to flip you over and have his way with you.
sylus grins before kissing your ear and neck, bucking his hips up to hear you mewl from pleasure. he pulls away from your skin to look at you with his signature smirk, teasing you once more, âthen, who am i to deny my sweet girl?â

Dumping the start of the tags here cause tumblr has a tag limit of 30 :/ sorry op
Okay hold on
also more things I couldn't fit in. after cuddy bails out choreman chase gets assigned a bunch of clinic hours as Punishment TM. But mom-dad wilson (house is dad-mom) keeps him company till house gets angsty and comes to bail him out pick him up.
More I couldn't fit in at the end so I dumped here outta order:
wilson teahces the ducklings to paint since obvi house passed down his musical talents
rich kid chase got assigned clarinet at age 6. he's ok but has 0 heart. house jokingly points him towards a lyre in a music shop and he takes to it instantly. house go to tease him (baby angel lookin-) but chase looks so overjoyed and he says something like "look just like David played for Saul" so he melts on the spot (and convinces wilson to by him a kinnor so he doesn't know its his idea. he sings like a screeching alterboy tho)
I think cameron can sing but she's quiet and stumbles so she refuses to get formal training. she's tear rendering on a cello tho. surprisingly she can dj like all hell too. she had a wild college life before her 1st husband
foreman can sing smooth as silk. but he can't play an instrument to save his life (no patient for it). his dancing though? stage worthy. can be convinced to show off after a couple drinks.
Obsessed with the whole vibes of early season one of House. The ducklings have the energy of dysfunctional siblings along with their insane Vicodin-addict father. Wilson isnât shown to have an office yet so he just lingers at Houseâs side while constantly and giving him fuck-me eyes. Wilson will just sit in on diagnoses and give his advice like he doesnât have any responsibilities in the world. When the team needs to (illegally) shrink a patientâs tumor so itâs small enough to operate on, Wilson just says âalrightâ and does it along with Cameron. Chase does a silly American accent to fool a patientâs mother and it WORKS. Foreman is new and already despises everyone. House comments on how fuckable Wilson looks when Wilson is simply wearing a green tie and nice shoes. An old woman says that House has the same bedroom eyes as Ashton Kutcher. At one point the team, House, Wilson, and Cuddy all gather together in the small lab room to discuss a patient and are all basically brushing shoulders. Wilson reads a love poem out loud in the middle of the hospital to House. House eats tomato sauce that the team suspected was killing the patient. Wilson ditches his wife on Christmas Eve to go hang out with House and it shows a montage of them laughing and eating take-out. Cuddy greets House and Wilson by saying âhi, boysâ like theyâre kids. Foreman and Cameron are tasked to search a patientâs home and Foreman eats the ham he found in their fridge because he was hungry. The first scene with House shows him and Wilson walking down the hallway literally brushing hands and shoulders despite the hallway being huge. One of the first things Wilson does is lie to House. Wilson asks House â who rarely ever takes cases unless he finds them really interesting â to take a case and House just takes it. When asked why it was so easy, House just looks at Wilson with a smirk and says âyou know whyâ and then they both smile at each other. This is all in the span of the first eight episodes.
#cameron watches the met gala with wilson and they make a tradition of judging the Shit outfits together (they both still suck at shopping)!#they still go shopping. but for silly obscure mugs! they make a death match outta it! foreman introduces them to ebay and decimates them!#it gets so bad house inlists amber to take them (wilson + cameron) shopping. somehow he and chase end up tagging along#chase and amber actually slay the house down. they are effective and vicious at shopping.#think crazy rich aunt who shows up once a month for a shopping spree therapy ses. and bad bitchin life advice. then you never see her again#later that night chase and foreman go out drinking. they have a bro moment get robbed and some how they're the ones who end up in jail#(probably for drunkenly disorder)#they get their phone call and chase is like noooo i cant tell mom and dad theylll be sooo disappointed in me :( (house is not)#foreman is like i gotchu bro and calls up cuddy at like 5 am. she brings rachel with her cause she cant be left alone yet#(its fine tho she was already up. kids r just Like That) she shows up eyebrow raised like 'Boys'.#foreman the lil shit points at chase straight face and says it was all his idea. his fault. tried to stop him but nooo he wouldnt listen đ#and since foreman is (canonically) cuddy's favourite she believes him.#thats how foreman gets brotherly revenge for chase always throwin the rest of the team under the bus and bein a lil snitch (affectionate)#chase regrets not calling cameron and facing her moral wrath for all of 5 mins. then they get to cuddys car#and chase lights up like a stage 4 cancer patient in a ct scan. cause rachel is in the car. and rachel ADORES foreman. finds him facinating#he's her new teddy. she asks him every question under the sun + leaves him covered in Child Stickiness. chase thinks this is an Opportunity#but plot twist foreman is great with kids. he listens and answers and gives fun neuro facts. rach makes the đŽ face kids make till shes 13.#she gets in trouble @school for diagnosing kids w/ stuff (mostly true) but her teacher is so confused about this kids family she just đ#foreman always makes time for Rachel between cases holidays etc. and bring your kid to work day is right after her birthday.#so she goes every year spends the day in the teams or wilson's office. sitting in foremans lap until she just kicks him off and steals it.#also she has a height chart in foreman's Dark Shadowy Corner that she updates every year and everybody must Write A Note every year#on the flip side she hits chameron with the double 'why are you both blonde. sad.' and they both die of humiliation.#everyone thinks rachel'll take after foreman when she shows interest in medicine. she does. in a way. she goes into psychology :)#when she announces this (either in the clinic or in an ambulance over some guy who collapsed) house (who with wilson + cuddy coparent rach)#has what'll become known as The Great House Swoon of 2026 when rachel hits 18 yes i did math. he's fine tho. what's the logic behind this?#what season is it in? shhh no :) as a gift 4 college wilson gives rachel the dime she swallowed as a baby gold plated on a chain cause well#house md#gay dads hilson#h/w/c#the og ducklings
