bela lugosi's dead
written for the @steddiemicrofic prompt: suck | wc: 480 | T | cw: none | tags: vampire!Steve
Like every good freak worth the nickname, Eddie made a habit of reading Dracula every Halloween.Â
The first read led to closeted daydreaming about getting abducted by a handsome vampire. Letting himself poke at desires he hadnât been ready to commit to. With age his fantasies and aesthetics matured, until he was the bloodsucking creature of the night stealing pretty boys away to give in to their secret temptations. So, if he's honest, heâs having a hard time dealing with life and the lemons itâs juggling off to the side of him.
âIt isn't fair.â
âHmm,â Steve, with his red puffer vest and his coordinating Nikes, sat across from him at some point in full view of Eddieâs misery over his annotated copy of Dracula.
âThere's an aesthetic you're failing to appreciate and it isn't fair that you-â
âAre we going to do this every time?â He asks around the straw in his mouth, poked into a blood bag labeled âRobin:)â like heâs sipping from a juice box.
âUntil you stop dressing like a JCPenney catalog model, or vampires become lame, yeah we probably are, Harrington.â
âFine,â he sighs, having the decency to pull the blood bag away from his face, âI'm sorry that you had to have five blood transfusions and basically have new, non-vampire blood. No one has ever suffered the way you, Eddie Munson, have.â
âYou're being sarcastic, but I have suffered so apology accepted, Stevie.â
âNow you.â Steve prompts, gesturing with the bag in his hands.
âNow me what?â
Steve sits up, a languid move that makes Eddieâs prey brain sit up at attention and his horny boy brain poke its head up too. âSay I'm sorry, Steve, that you had to save the world for the fourth time so a bunch of freaky bat venom metastasized-â
âYou absolutely stole that word from Henderson,â breathless, the jab doesnât carry the weight it could.
â-in your bloodstream and combined with the remains of the experimental Soviet drugs and now," He crawls closer, "you can't eat garlic anymore.â
âThat's the hang up for you? Not the blood drinking?â
âI'm Italian, I canât eat anything anymore. Sure I can supplement the blood with raw meat, but whatâs the point if everything is poorly seasoned.â Blood bag all but forgotten in the arm chair, he has Eddie pinned in place looming overtop of him, talking shit about what heâll never be able to eat again.
The white collar of Steveâs t-shirt is visible beneath the color-block vest, even that isnât enough to stop his brain from screaming predator on repeat. Supernaturally strong, it doesnât take more than a hand on the shoulder to push Eddie down horizontal on the couch. He has to feel Eddieâs heart beat, the way it pounds in his chest as Steve noses up the collarbone to his neck. âReally does suck for me, huh baby?â

I worked retail for a long time and people really do treat you like shit sometimes. But between selling sex toys, mattresses, and jewelry I can say definitively I got treated worst selling mattresses.
All three of my jobs were in sales but selling sex toys we were allowed to put people in their place, and in jewelry people didnât want to misbehave in a fancy setting. But people at the mattress store had no problem yelling at me, hitting on me, or insulting me to my face.
For a while I was managing my own store for the company. I ran a small location and had struggling employees placed with me for rehabilitation. If their numbers improved they could go back to bigger stores. If not, they got fired.
So this meant I was the manager of problem employees. At one point both of my people had a foot out the door. The company was going downhill and changed computer systems and they were fed up. Consequently, they made a ton of mistakes, because they just didnât care about the job or learning the new systems.
I strolled into work on what was essentially my Monday to a shit show. Deliveries scheduled without product, wrong things on orders, poor expectations of the process, you name it. I spent the entire morning getting yelled at for mistakes that werenât mine.
The final straw came when a man called furious that his moms bed for her nursing home had a delivery window he couldnât accommodate. This wasnât a huge disaster since we still had time to deliver it before she moved. I ran him through the options and he just kept screaming at me. Not for a solution but because I was there and he was frustrated.
My heart filled with malice and a cold fury. A calculating part of my brain had a realization in that moment that I could stay a punching bag or I could strike back.
I quavered my voice delicately, taking in a shaky, warbling breath like I was trying not to cry. âSir,â I quivered through fake tears, âI donât know what you want from me! I told you what I can do, I didnât make this mistake Iâm just trying to fix it!â My voice broke pitifully on the last syllables, sounding in all ways like a sweet innocent person being yelled at whoâs just trying her best, really!
It was like Iâd doused him with cold water. My emotional act was the realization that he was screaming at someone who was just doing their damn job, and he was being an asshole. He hastily made an excuse and hung up.
I had a third employee covering with me from another store that day who heard everything. When I hung up, I looked over to see them watching me with an awed expression. âDid⊠did you just pretend to cry?â
âI absolutely fucking did,â I said with feeling, âand Iâd do it a thousand more times. If thatâs what it takes for someone to realize theyâre behaving like a fucking prick, they deserve it.â The employee looked at me like I was their hero.
The man called back, apologizing profusely, having magically arranged his schedule to accommodate delivery. He came in later that week with an apology Starbucks gift card. I was gracious in my acceptance.
I pulled it a few more times before leaving the company. I felt no shame in the ruse. If someone behaves so poorly that itâs plausible their behavior would drive someone to tears they deserve to feel absolutely wretched about it.
#ramblies#ffs foibles#story#retail#retail hell#I have had people over the years had qualms with the ruse#one person even told me it was so unprofessional#that Iâd pretend to be in more distress was not nice of me. but getting yelled at is not nice and Iâm in a position where I canât yell back#and who would they complain to that I cried? would they go to corporate and say how unprofessional the lady cried when I screamed at her!

dubcon, objectification, forced (?) threesome, f!reader
they say the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else.
ghost finds you ten months after your divorce, nursing a drink in a shithole of a pub. he doesnât consider himself a good man, licking the tears on your cheeks when he fucks you for the first time, ignoring your whines of how âitâs been a whileâ and youâre âtoo tight.â he doesnât like to keep birds around longer than a night, but something about how you wrap your leg around him in the morning makes him stay a little longer.
he lets you call him simon after you whine that you âcanât fuck him without knowing his name.â it takes a bit, but you get used to sleeping with someone who isnât your ex-husband. he calls you bird instead of sweetheart, love instead of darling and after a while, the word honey loses its significance. when simon tells you heâs military, you try to leave his bed, only for him to pull you by the thigh, apologizing with his tongue in your cunt. simon doesnât date and you arenât ready for it, content to stay in your respective apartments, living for his occasional half-smiles and usual gruff admonishments. its a bit new to simon - heâs used his camera app more in the past weeks than he has in years. always pictures of you: his cum on your tits, the bruises he leaves on your hips, a rare photo of you sleeping. he even lets you corral him into taking a cheesy mirror picture, his arms dwarfing your waist with his face tucked into your neck, your jawline exposed as you turn to kiss his cheek.
itâs two months later when you promise to cook him a meal for the first time, a sunday roast he hasnât tasted in years. âbetter not take too long, bird, âm starvinâ.â simon murmurs in your ear, hands squeezing your stomach and waist as you fumble with your keys. âiâve had it slow cooking before i left for yours last night. itâll put us in a food coma.â you finally put the key in the lock, turning it with force before simon decides to fuck you against the door. he dips to bite your neck, sending you into your apartment giggling, swatting him off you. the weight of your divorce is finally off your shoulders, happy butterflies fluttering in your stomach formed by simonâs continuous presence.
the butterflies die when you see a familiar pair of boots at your door.
âstay here.â you order simon, a change from your usual dynamic. you canât focus on his reaction, set on edge by the sounds of pots clanging in your kitchen. thereâs no point in creeping - he knows youâre here. you turn the corner and there he is - your ex husband. âyouâre just in time, sweetheart. nice âf you to make a roast.â
johnâs standing there like he owns the place, like he knows this kitchen heâs never been in. heâs boiling potatoes on the stove, keeping an eye on the slow cooker timer. heâs even poured himself a fucking drink, a scotch he had to have brought since all you have is wine and simonâs whiskey. all smug and entitled in his civvies, commanding the room like he pays your rent. he's still as handsome as ever, darker eye bags the only indication he's been losing sleep.
âwhat the fuck are you doing here, john?â john doesnât answer immediately, instead using a fork to test the potatoes. satisfied, he takes them off the burner and turns to the sink, dumping them out in a prepared strainer. ââs our anniversary, sweetheart. thought thatâs why you made the food.â you can sense simon still in the doorway, his presence unknown to your ex. it gives you strength, a guard dog at your back, and comfort that heâs letting you run this on your own. âour anniversary ended when we signed the papers. i donât know how you got in here, but you need to leave.â he frowns at you and it almost tugs at your heart strings. your brain conjures images of his coldness and constant distance, and you shut that down real fast. unfortunately, he doesnât get the memo. john takes a step closer, hands up like heâs approaching a wild animal. âhoney, i-â and thatâs when ghost steps out of the darkness.
thereâs a long pause. it boosts your ego a bit, showing john youâve moved on, until the silence is so long that you start to worry. you chance a look at simonâs face and find it confused, not at all the guard dog you thought he was. a glance at johnâs reveals the same. youâre about to ask your question when they answer it for you. âcaptain.â âlieutenant.â âwhat?â
the transformation happens in an instant. both men straighten to their full heights, wiping any emotion off their faces. their brows furrow as they flex their hands to control their instincts. how could you not see it before? simon only mentioned he was military, but the stamp of the SAS is clear as day. it was in the harsh lines he carried, a companionship with death, not unlike the one john had.
john started first, of course, always having to take control of the situation. âyou fuckinâ my lieutenant, sweetheart? miss me that much?â you rolled your eyes at his cruel words, inching closer to simon. âwhatever we do doesnât concern you.â you emphasized the âyouâ, spitting it out with venom. john hums low, making you nervous. you turn to simon, but he's quiet and calculating, communicating silently with his captain.
"didn't know you had a wife, sir." you answer before john can. "we divorced a year ago." john chimes in. "to the day, actually. she served me on our anniversary." simon looks down at you, the man you thought you knew now gone. his eyes are black pits, targeting you like you're prey. "that's cruel, bird." you sputter, backing into the kitchen cabinets. you walk until your back hits the sink, each man on either side of you. john has his arms crossed and head cocked to the side, like you're about to get chewed out by the school principal. simon looks...no longer human. unrestrained. whatever spark you two had has gone out, replaced by sheer loyalty to his captain. "show the captain what he's been missin', love. y've been starvin' him." he moves at lightning speed, picking you up and dropping you on the island counter, sunday roast long forgotten.
"simon?" he doesn't answer, scarred hands squeezing up and down your body as john watches from behind him, arms crossed and eyes searching. your mind is telling you one thing but your body wants another. some twisted part of your brain reminds you that john came to visit on your anniversary, even though you threw him out a year ago. simon's no better, coaxing your sweater off your torso, leaving you exposed in a lacy bra. your nipples harden and john sees, making a clicking noise with his tongue. "warm 'er up, lieutenant." simon obeys instantly, pulling down the cup of your bra to suck on your nipple. he's ravenous, no sunday roast in sight, and he's decided you're his meal instead. he sucks hard, a calloused hand reaching up to pull your other tit out so you're fully exposed to your two men. he squeezes it with reverence, rolling your nipple between his fingers as he sucks hard on the other one, not minding his own teeth.
it's dirty - watching john watch you. you hadn't fucked in the last months before the divorce. he was always too busy, on base or deployed, and you were so angry you couldn't let him near you. now, your ex-husband moves closer, taking in the sight of his lieutenant feasting. "miss me, sweetheart?" you shake your head on instinct. he sighs at your attitude. you're seated on the corner of the island, perfect for john to come up on your side, one large paw making its way towards your jaw, turning you towards him. "say it." you shake your head again. john sticks a thumb into your mouth, pushing against your teeth. you try to force him out, but simon bites your tit, making you gasp and let john in anyways. you suck his thumb defiantly, gazing at him with all the emotions you can't convey.
you look so pretty like this, john decides. laid out for his lieutenant, taking his orders as well as your emotions will allow. he decides to forgive you for your indiscretions with ghost - at least it was with one of his own men. they're practically an extension of himself. john hooks his thumb into the gap between your tongue and teeth and pulls, forcing you right into his space. "i reckon your cunt's nice an' wet, though. should i check? know she's missed me even if you won't admit it." your eyes go wide, giving him an answer he already knew. simon follows orders well, manhandling you into position by yanking off your jeans. there's a wet spot on the light fabric of your underwear. john can practically see your cunt clinging to it, begging for him to say hello.
"want ya to take 'em off y'self, bird." simon's finally speaking, the glaze in his eyes fading. he looks at you, then his captain, and it makes sense. how you're used to being led but refuse it all the same. how you're desperate for affection but won't date him because he's military. you're scarred from the chains of your marriage, so it only makes sense that he's the one you seek out - the opposite of husband material. more dog than human on his worst days. simon stares at you until you follow his command, meekly lifting up your hips as you take off your underwear. your cunt is sopping, in a way it only does when youâre ovulating, practically begging for it. your ex-husband whistles through his teeth like heâs praising a recruit. âknew sheâd be happy to see me. hullo, darling.â you canât find it in you to cringe. john starts running his fingers through your folds, inspecting, and all you can do is stare. stare at the veins in his forearm. stare at simon behind him, eyes trained on his captainâs movements. stare at the counter where your juices start to gather and wonder how the hell you got into this situation.
âpinch âer tit anâ watch âer flutter.â simonâs callous with his instructions but john follows them anyway, his unoccupied hand reaching up to pinch your nipple. you canât help the gasp that escapes you, the way your cunt flutters around johnâs fingers. he hums thoughtfully. john decides youâve been good, if not a bit quiet, and presses his thumb against your clit as a reward. he starts rubbing in that pattern that would get you off without fail during your marriage. he fits one finger into you easily as you grip the counter hard, the sudden sensation overwhelming. simon peers over his shoulder like a fucking scientist. ââf she gets bratty, i pull back the hood til she screams.â like your cuntâs a machine and they have the two pieces of its manual. johnâs movements are making you desperate, hips starting to buck against his fingers. he chuckles and adds another, not hiding a smile when you sigh in relief. simonâs hands come to your waist, helping you fuck yourself on priceâs fingers. it feels so wrong, having them barely listen to your pleas, and yet being under their watch is the most right youâve ever felt in your life. thatâs what brings your orgasm - not johnâs thick fingers on your cunt, his rough thumb in your clit - but two sets of hungry eyes on you, like youâre their last meal. john fucks you through your orgasm, simon not letting you out of his grasp until tears start to form, the embarrassment of your own wetness coming to the front of your mind. john slowly removes his fingers and brings them to simonâs mouth to taste, not satisfied until his lieutenant hums in agreement. the two men turn to you, naked save for your disheveled bra around your waist, somehow making the scene more depraved.
ââow âbout that roast, love?â simon murmurs gruffly.
good thing john never signed the divorce papers.

Medical Emergency
Summary: Jake 'Hangman' Seresin x Fe!Reader -> When Jake gets a call asking to pick you up from the hospital, it's safe to say he's confused. Especially considering neither of you were known for getting along with the other.
Disclaimer: Enemies to lovers, brother's best friend, descriptions of being ill (nothing fully specified, just fainting a lot, low blood sugar and hormones), swearing, fluff, steamy moments, he takes care of you. This has been in my w.i.p for a while now so it's kinda a long one. Not Proof Read.
It was safe to say Jake was confused to find out he was your emergency contact.Â
It was known to most people in the town that you and Jake werenât exactly the best of friends. The hatred started all back when he was brought into Top Gun the first time round. Before he suddenly became the best, of the best of the best. And each year he came back, it only got worse.Â
Neither of you would be surprised if everyone in San Diego knew about how much you and Jake didnât get along.Â
So, yeah. Getting a call from a Nurse called Emma telling him he needed to come and pick you up from the hospitalâŠhe was confused.Â
Heâd spent most of the day training the new recruits at Top Gun. He was on base when he got the call, but twenty minutes later, he was parked outside the hospital and was being shown to your room.Â
âSheâs to take two of these every six hours for the next three days. If she has any drastic changes; dizziness, nausea, vomiting, etc. Bring her back. But she should be okay.â
He hadnât even been told what had happened.Â
Then he saw you.Â
On a typical day, your hair was either up or down. You typically wore bright colours since the kids in your class like to point them out and name them. And even at the end of the week when youâd walk into the Hard Deck, Penny already having your drink waiting for you, and youâd look tired and ready to go to bed, you were stillâŠbright. Put together.Â
But from where he was standing, you were dressed in grey sweats and a Top-Gun hoodie. Most likely, you thought it was your brotherâs. But from the worn hole around the edge of it let Jake know it was his. One your brother had never returned to him.Â
You lookedâŠlike you needed to be comforted.Â
Your hair was pulled back into a messy ponytail at the base of your skull. Any hints of make-up had been long washed away. Your nail polish was chipped, if not already peeled from your nails.Â
Finally slipping your shoes on, you stood slowly. You looked like you needed to sleep for a year, and maybe take another nap for eight months.Â
âJust sign here and here and then youâre free to go.â
Jake watched as the nurseâs words just about registered in your ears before you slowly picked the pen up from her hand and signed your name at the bottom of the paper.Â
Reaching to grab the rest of your stuff, Jake almost swooped forwards. âIâve got it.â
You just nodded. âThanks.â
Any other day, you would have told him you could do it yourself and tell him to fuck off.Â
He picked up your overnight bag and, with a hand at the bottom of your back, led you out of the hospital.Â
âThis way.â
You followed him back to his car and once he knew you were safe inside the passenger seat, he rounded the car and got into his seat.Â
âI did tell them just to call me a cab. You can just drop me off down the road. You donât need to-â
âIâm not letting you walk home.â He told you. âWhatâs your address?â
Part of Jake wished youâd fight him more about walking home. At least that way heâd know you were actually okay. He still would have driven you home, butâŠhe wanted you back.Â
Typing your address into his phone, he followed the sat-nav.Â
By the time he pulled up outside your house, you were asleep. He waited for five minutes, letting you sleep whilst he researched and read the prescription youâd been given.Â
Then he looked up at your house. You had to have a spare key.Â
Carefully, he left his car and walked up your path. He looked in all the typical places until he found a small patch of wood from your porch coming loose. Inside was your key.Â
So, opening your door and carrying your things inside, he came back for you.Â
Unbuckling your seatbelt, he placed one of your arms around his neck before placing his own arms around your back and under your legs.Â
âItâs okay. Go back to sleep.â
And you did.Â
Shutting the door to his car with his back, he carried you into your house, shutting your front door with his foot before taking you into your bedroom and laying you on top of your sheets. Looking around, he found a basket of blankets just under your window.Â
However, as he covered you up, he checked your temp with the back of his hand. You seemed okay.Â
Then you reached for him.Â
It was only for a few seconds, but you held his hand before your body fell back to sleep.Â
Before he left your room, Jake got you a glass of water and left your window on a latch. And then he stayed.Â
Kicking off his boots by the door, he locked everything up around your home before laying down on top of the guest bed with a million and one questions circling around his head.Â
Why was he your emergency contact? What had happened? Why didnât anyone else tell him you were in the hospital for, clearly, more than a couple of hours?Â
You spent the next two days in and out of consciousness. The hospital told Jake not to worry and that it was a good sign you were sleeping. Heâd wake you every couple of hours and give you your tablets.Â
And each time, youâd wake up with the same confusion of how and why he was in your house. And then youâd remember. And apologise. And thank him. Before heâd tell you to lay back down and get some rest.Â
By the time you came round, you woke up to texts pinging on your phone.Â
How could you not tell me you were dating someone?
We SERIOUSLY need to catch up about this when youâre back in.Â
Your boyfriend called the school. Why is this how Iâm finding out youâre sick?
Get better soon, honey xoxo
Also, donât worry about the kids. Iâve got your class covered.Â
One of your fellow-teacher best friends. You and her had joined the school as teachers in the same year. She had been away on a cruise for the last two weeks.Â
Slowly, everything that had happened over the last two days came flooding back to you. They had called Jake. He had come to get you at the hospital. He kept waking you up. Had he stayed that whole time? Was he the one to call your school?
Pulling yourself from your bed and heading to the bathroom, you caught a look of yourself in the mirror. You lookedâŠrough. And also the exact same as you had when youâd left the hospital. Maybe there was a little more colour in your cheeks.Â
And you did feel better.Â
The room felt still and you didnât feel like throwing up all your insides out, despite being unable to do so.Â
Drying your hands on the towel, you made your way through your home. Things wereâŠtidy. Militarily so. The last time your place, although tidy, had looked militarily tidy had been when your brother had visited you before he got deployed again.Â
So, either, he was here now. Jake was still here. Or you had a ghost haunting your house that just so happened to be in the Navy.Â
Walking down the stairs, you found a pair of boots at the bottom of your stairs. They definitely werenât yours.Â
Then you heard someone in the kitchen. The smell of fresh bread and chicken noodle soup wafted through your home.Â
It was a minute or two before Jake spotted you. It felt like a fever dream, watching him in your kitchen, dressed normally, a towel slung over his shoulder as he slid the bread buns from the tray to a cooling rack.Â
âOh, hey. Youâre awake.â
You nodded. âDid you cook?â
âHow are you feeling?â Jake made his way over to you, his hand coming to touch your forehead and cheeks. You swatted his hands away. You could have sworn you saw him smile after you did it.Â
âGet off me, Iâm fine.â
Jake smiled as he watched you make your way to sit down on the opposite side of the kitchen island. You looked way better than you had done when he saw you in the hospital.Â
âWhat day is it?â
âTuesday.â He told you, continuing to slide all but one of the bread buns onto the cooling back. The final one, he dropped onto a plate before dishing out a bowl of the soup.Â
âEat up. Youâre gonna need your strength.â
You looked at the food in front of you. âYou made this?â
âI made it.â
You looked at him sceptically. âIs this how you plan to kill me? She was weak, your honour. I just wanted to help her.â
âWhy would I take care of you for three days and then kill you? Itâd be easier if I did it in three days.â
âSo you did think about it.â
Jake rolled his eyes and handed you a fork. âJust eat.â
You couldnât lie, it was one of the best mealâs youâd had in a long time. And as you ate, you looked around your home. Your books had been tidied away and back onto your shelves. All except two. One you were part way through reading and one that wasâŠalmost finished. But not by you.Â
You didnât notice as Jake watched you take everything in. Your books, your pots of pens. You dish towels, your spices and other baking ingredients. Some had even been put into the jars you had been meaning to fill back up. Then you noticed the smaller things. Like how heâd put up the wooden signs in your kitchen youâd been planning to do for months, and how heâd cleanedâŠeverything.Â
It looked like heâd done a complete renovation of your place whilst youâd been knocked out.Â
Then you noticed the pile of papers on your kitchen counter.Â
The English and maths tests youâd given to your class a few weeks ago. You hadnât finished marking them.Â
But Jake had.Â
You took the top paper and looked it over.Â
âDid you mark these?â You flipped through the pages. Not only were they marked, but they were marked correctly. They even had a sticker on each of âwell doneâ or âgreat stuffâ.Â
You heard Jake chuckle. âI am a teacher, too, you know.â
âYouâre aâŠTop Gun instructor. Not a third-grade teacher.â
âI do suppose I am over qualified to help but-â
You shook your head. You hadnât meant for it to sound so insulting.
âNo, I-I mean, thank you. But you didnât have to do this. Any of this.â You gestured around your home. âYou already did enough bringing me home.â
âI wanted to ask you about that. Why was it me that brought you home? Surely you have people who you actually like, to be your emergency contact?â
Tyler watched as you fell silent and searched for the words to tell him.Â
âYouâreâŠnot.â Taking a breath, you looked up at him. âTheyâŠthey tried a couple of people. They couldnât make it. One of the nurses knows Penny so called and asked if she had anyoneâs number who I knew. I did try and tell them to just call me a cab.â
He let your words settle over him.Â
âWho?â
âWhat?â
âWho else did you call? Who didnât pick up?â
You listed them off. Most were people in your family and a couple of friends.Â
âI would have fought them on it but-â
âIâm glad you called me.â Jake admitted you. And it struck you. âGive me your phone.â
You slid it over to him. And he called his number from your phone.Â
âIf anything like that happens again, I want you to call me.â
âJake-â
He shook his head. âYouâre not fighting me on this. Fight me on everything else. Anything else. But not this. Call me.â
So you just nodded. âOkay.â
âGood. And eat up, too.â
You did. âYou say that as if weâve got some place to be.â
âWe do.â
âWhere?â
âYouâll see.â
Twenty minutes later he practically shoved you into your bathroom en-suit telling you to shower and get changed.Â
âI thought my nurse was meant to be kind.â
âI am kind!â He said. âAnd Iâm not a nurse. And Iâm a friend.â
You laughed a little at that one.Â
âIâve seen the inside of your junk drawer. Iâm your friend. I have to be, or else I donât have a word for it.â
He did have a point on that. Your junk drawerâŠeven you hadnât seen the inside of that thing in at least a year.Â
So, after getting dressed, taking the last of your antibiotic and forcing some kind of health smoothie Hangman had made you with the blender he found at the back of your cupboard, you found yourself back in the passenger seat of his car.Â
âWhere are we going?â
He said nothing, just smiled and pulled the aviators from his collar and put them on before starting his engine and for a moment you wondered if that was what he did when he got into his jet. Flash his million-dollar smile before starting his jet engine and taking off into the sky. For a moment you wondered what it would be like to watch him land and look over at you just like he did.Â
But then you forced yourself back to reality.Â
This was Jake Seresin, aka Hangman. Given that name because he hangs his team out to dry.Â
But he didnât leave you.Â
In fact, he was the only one to show up.Â
And the first to stay.Â
You read the road signs as best as you could until you realised where he was taking you.Â
âYou know there is a beach like ten minutes from my house.â
He nodded. âI know. But youâre there all the time. Youâve seen that patch a thousand times. This is different.â
âHow? Isnât all sand the same?â
He shrugged, still smiling. âMaybe. But they always say the beach can work a thousand miracles. Come on.â
It was a five minute walk to the bottom.Â
âIs it usually this empty?â
He looked around. âThereâs usually a couple more people, but yeah. This is usually it. Not many people drive this far down. They think itâs not the best but to meâŠcouldnât be more perfect.â
âHuh.â
âWhat?â Jake asked, looking at you.Â
You continued looking out to the water. You shook your head. âNo, nothing. JustâŠnever thought youâd be the sentimental type.â
âWellâŠIâm not.âÂ
You looked at him.Â
âTo most people.â
It was at that moment you felt a small crackle. Either in your chest or your gut, something crackled. And you felt the blanket of hatred you had for Jake Seresin start to fade.Â
His call sign might be âHangmanâ, but you had a strong feeling that when it came to those he cared aboutâŠhe tried his best to stick around. And even if he couldnât, heâd make a memory of them to last a lifetime.Â
 For the rest of the day, you spent most of your time lying on the beach watching the waves or reading your book, which he had packed. And it wasâŠone of the best days youâd had in a long time.Â
âWhy are you doing this?â
âWhat?â Moving the book from his face, Jake looked at you from beneath his shades as you lay on your stomach beside him.Â
âThis? Less than a week ago Iâm pretty sure people would have made money on you and I killing each other. Why are you helping me?â
âBecause you need it. And Iâm pretty sure anyone else would believe you when you say that you donât.â
âAnd you donât believe me?â
He shook his head. âNo.â
âWhy not?â
âBecause I know you.â
You scoffed. âWhat do you mean you know me?â
You watched as he smiled and tried to kill the butterflies in your stomach.Â
âY/n.â
You were still getting used to the fact he was using your first name. Usually it was your last, or some sweet nickname like âSweetheartâ that would grate through your entire body.Â
âYou spend most of your time making sure everyone feels okay and is doing okay. The only time you actually let your feelings know is when youâre taking shit to me. You deserve a break. You deserve to take one before your body forces you to have one.â
Hearing his words as he spoke, you slowly sat up until your back was to the water and you were fully facing him.Â
âPlus, your brother asked me to look out for you. And Iâd rather not suffer his wrath again.â
Okay, that had to be complete bull. Your brotherâs wrath when it came to protecting you, that was true. But why ask Jake of all people given he knew your history and track record with him.Â
And what did he mean by again?
You barely had time to ask all of your questions before you watched him stand up, throwing his book closed to the ground. You mentally scolded yourself for letting your eyes wander all over him.Â
You werenât blind to the fact Hangman looked, well, like him. A daring smile, enough charm to charm even the most sourest of people and the body to go with it. But before today, you had been immune. At least, you considered yourself immune since the blanket of hatred that you held for him seemed to block plenty out.Â
Worst of all, he caught you.Â
You knew he caught you because of the smirk on his face and the chuckle that escaped his broad chest.Â
âShut up.â You groaned, forcing yourself to stand. âIâve been in the hospital. My immune system is temporarily weakened.â
âIt isnât the first time Iâve caught you, Sweetheart.â Seresin drawled just as you looked at him both annoyed and confused. And maybe slightly offended that he thought you had, before today, purposefully checked him out.Â
But he just laughed. âCome on, I want to show you something.â
âBut what about our stuff?â
âItâll be safe. I know most of the people on this beach, theyâll make sure nothing happens to it.â
Taking your hand in his, he led you down the beach, under a small cove and through to the otherside where some rocks were covered in seaweed and sand.Â
And for a while, you and Jake explored the place. Youâd never been this far down the beach so finding out it existed was a bonus. Finding seaweed to pop and watching the crabs crawl across some of the rocks was fun.Â
Youâd never stop to take a break. Straight out of college, youâd begun teaching. It had been in your home town until your brother got accepted into Top Gun. And, with an internalised fear of losing him, you moved out to San Diego. You knew after a while heâd be stationed somewhere else, but youâd managed to find a home there. And when your brother was stationed not too far from his Top Gun base, the rest of your family moved closer.Â
Since then, it has been helping them get settled, tutoring their children after spending all day teaching. It was sleepless nights spent alone at home, living off the quickest food you could make because you simply didnât have time to cook. It was running yourself so far into the ground that the one person who you never thought would even step foot into your home was the only one to show up and give you enough space to actually relax.Â
So watching crabs walk along the rocks was fun.Â
And hearing your name, and calling out his name above the waves, without hatred or malice behind it, was fun, too.Â
âCome and look at this.â
Carefully, you made your way over the rocks, trying your best not to slip and hit your head. And you did so, until the last rock before you joined him.Â
Letting out a small yell as you reached out to try and catch yourself, he threw out his hand and caught you.Â
âYou okay?â
âFine.â
âCan you stand?â
You lowered yourself to a lower rock, still holding onto his arms before letting go and allowing yourself to take his hand and help you up the rest of the way.Â
âWhat am I looking at?â
It was a starfish.Â
The rest of the day, you and Jake explored the shore, skipped rocks on the calming water, sunbathed and even took a swim in the water.Â
By the time the sun had set, you found yourself sitting with him on the hood of his car, a pizza box between you both, watching the planes fly from the airport.Â
A week ago, if anyone had told you that you would have done any of this, especially with Hangman, you would never have believed them.Â
âThank you, for your help.â You blurted out as you watched another plane fly into the sky.Â
âYou donât have to thank me.â
âYes, I do.â You wanted him to listen to you. âGiven our track record for being nice to each other, I wouldnât have been surprised if you didnât turn up at the hospital to bring me home. But you did. And you made sure I didnât fall into some kind of coma after it. And today you gave me the first day, I think, ever, where Iâve not done a thousand things for somebody else and enjoyed what I was doing. So, I do need to thank you for that.â
âAre you sayingâŠyouâŠlike me?â
You couldnât stop the smile on your face, but you tried to force it away. âOkay.â
âNo, no. I mean, this is a miracle.â
âYouâre tolerable.â You corrected him.Â
Smiling, he took another slice of pizza. âYou like me.â
âNo, I donât.â
âYou like me. I am now your friend. We are now friends.â
You shook your head, holding in a laugh. âJust shut up and eat your pizza.â
It was safe to say after that, that everyone was shocked at the dynamic between both you and Hangman.Â
They had all gotten so used to the insults and borderline flirty comments youâd both sling each other's way, it had become like white noise. So, when it was gone and replaced with laughter and smiling, it gave everyone a terrified feeling.Â
âIâm guessing theyâre not here yet.â
Penny shook her head as she poured another pint. With a smile, she nodded over to the other end of the bar. âTheyâre over there.â
Twenty minutes later, it had become like a social study for everyone in the bar to watch you and Jake.Â
âDo you think they fucked? Got all that pent up energy out?â
Coyote shook his head. âNo, he would have told me. How long have they been like this? Maybe theyâve been hypnotised into liking each other?â
Rooster shook his head. âThe hypnotist left like three months ago. Maybe theyâreâŠfaking it. Do you think they heard us talking about them last week? About who would kill who first? Maybe theyâre teaming up so nobody wins?â
Penny shook her head as she wiped down the bar. âWell, whatever it is, itâs a nice change. She looks a lot happier. They both do. Who knows, maybe next weâll be holding a wedding here.â
âNot their wedding?â Rooster seemed shocked. âPenny, they were about three insults away from killing each other three weeks ago.â
âLove is blind, as they say.â
For the rest of the night, people watched you and Jake sat together. Seresin and Y/l/n. Hangman and Sweetheart.Â
And then they watched as you walked home.Â
Together.Â
It was safe to say everyone was shocked to their core. For the first time ever, there had been a night where both you and Jake had not only been in the bar at the same time but had also sat together for the whole night, and not once killed each other.Â
Verbally or otherwise.Â
âYou know, youâre not as big of a dick as I thought you were Seresin. Tonight was a nice change.â
âI have been known to be kind once in a while.â
âKeep this up, you might be fit to see another day.â
âSo might you.â Jake replied as he watched you climb the steps of your front porch. âI meant what I said, about taking a break. You deserve one, Y/n.â
You took in what he said with a small nod before adding. âYou know, itâs still freaking me out, you even know my first name.â
âIf it helps, the nurse had to tell me.â He said. âGuess Iâve called you by your last name so much, I forgot your first.â
âIs that why you keep saying it? So you donât forget?â
He shrugged, a slight smirk on his face. âMaybe. Maybe not.â
âYou know, it is okay if you forget it once in a while.â
Jake smiled a little at that. âHow could I forget the name of the woman who once dumped three shots of tabasco sauce into my drink?â
âHey, you canât prove that was me.â
âHey, the bottle was in your hand.â
You unlocked your door. âI still plead not guilty.â
âWhatever you say, Sweetheart. Sure youâre okay on your own?â
You nodded. âIâll be fine. Besides, donât you have an early start in the morning?â
He nodded. âEven so. Call me.â
âGoodnight, Jake.â
âNight, Sweetheart.â
He waited for you to lock your doors before he got into his car and drove back home.Â
The following weeks continued the same way. If anybody who was anybody saw you and Jake âHangmanâ Seresin together, in the same room, talking. They would stop and watch.Â
Never in a million years did anyone expect you and Jake to talk, never mind actually become friends.Â
Each Friday, you met each other at the bar. You both have a drink. Youâd both sit and talk. Maybe some of your old ways were still there with each other, but there was less â25 to lifeâ about it and more âaffectionâ in the words you both said.Â
However, it nearly gave people an aneurysm when they thought you were both actually dating.Â
Two people who were thirty seconds away from physically fighting each other every day had gone from, well, that, toâŠtoâŠto dating?
It couldnât beâŠcould it?
And the rumours that had been spread by one of the bar regulars, after sheâd spotted both of you grocery shopping together before spotting Jakeâs car leave from the top of your road hours later, were only fueled when they heard about what happened at the school.Â
It had been months since you fainted and you had been getting better. You felt better, you felt like you had more energy. And with Jakeâs help you started to feel like a person again. A person who wasnât wholly consumed by their work constantly, whether they were ten miles from the building or not.Â
Except, one morning, you woke up and feltâŠoff.Â
Something wasnât right. You couldnât put your finger on it, but something didnât feel right. Maybe your period was coming early. It has been doing that lately. Surprising you when you least expected or wanted it.Â
Just a few weeks ago, it had arrived early once again. And the pain youâd felt in the days before nearly floored you. And when you hadnât showed up at the bar like youâd agreed to with Jake, he came looking for you. That night heâd taken a quick trip to the grocery store after you told him what happened. He looked after you. Made sure you were okay. The next day, he drove you back to the store and you stocked up on supplies and snacks.Â
It was also later that night when he surprised you by making dinner.Â
Opening up your fridge, you took one of the healthy smoothies that Jake had left you the last time heâd come round, before packing it into your bag and heading to work.Â
Your queasy feelings only got worse. And thenâŠyou felt it.Â
Sticking on a documentary for your class, you took your phone and slowly made your way towards the teachers bathroom, stopping off at the next class.Â
âCan you keep an eye on them for a couple of minutes?âÂ
Your best friend nodded. âCourseâ honey.â Before asking her TA to go next door.Â
âYou okay?â
You tried your best to look okay, despite everything you were feeling inside.Â
âYeah. Yeah. I will be.â
As the TA headed next door, you made your way towards the bathroom, then dialled his number.Â
âHey,â Jake said as he answered. âJust about to call you. Theyâve got a showing of The Wizard of Oz tonight at the theatre, if you wanted to go-â
âJake.â
âAre you okay? Whatâs happened? Is everything okay? Is it your brother-â
âEveryâŠâ You swallowed thickly before carefully lowering yourself onto the floor with your back against the wall, and unlocking the door. âEverythingâs okay, itâs justâŠâ
Jake had a strong feeling he knew what was happening. âIâm on my way. Where are you?â
âSchool bathroom. Teacherâs.â
âOkay.â You could hear him leaving his office and getting into his car. âIs the door unlocked?â
You didnât answer.Â
âY/n.â
âIâm here.â
Jake breathed. âY/n, Sweetheart. Is the door unlocked to the bathroom?â
âYes.â
âDoes anyone else know youâre there?â
You explained what happened as best as you could.Â
âJust, please get here soon?â
âI will, Sweetheart. I promise. Iâm almost there.â
You didnât know how long had passed but it wasnât long before you heard your name being called out by Jake.Â
Pulling the door open a little from the floor, Jake ran towards it and peeked inside. There you were, sat with your knees close to your chest, against the wall.Â
He stepped inside before crouching down.Â
âI-Iâm sorry I called. I just-â
Checking you over, Jake cupped your face. âHey, no. No. Iâm glad you called me. You can always call me. How are you feeling?â
âDizzy. Itâs better now but still like the room is spinning. And Iâm not harnessed in.â
âOkay. Do you think you can stand?â
You gave a small nod. âMaybe.â
Helping you up, Jake took your hands in his and you stood up.Â
âCome on, weâre getting you checked out at the ER.â
You would have fought him on it but considering the last time it happened they kept you in overnight, you went willingly.Â
Thankfully, you didnât pass out even when the dizziness and the nausea felt like they were getting worse.Â
By the time the doctor saw you, she did all of the routine checks before turning and looking at Jake and back to you.Â
âIs there a possibility you could be pregnant? Iâve seen a lot of couples come in here with similar symptoms and-â
Oh shit.Â
âOh, no. I-Iâm not. And heâs not-â
âWeâre- Weâre not together.â
A few more awkward moments like that filled the next couple of hours until both yourself and Jake seemed to give up on correcting people.Â
By the time they discharged you, they told you your blood sugar levels had dropped and your hormones were beginning to change with your cycle. Along with the advice to try and reduce stress.Â
Driving you home that night, Jake made a detour. Towards the diner and then towards the beach along The Hard Deck.Â
It was quiet for a Tuesday evening, but yourself and Jake just sat and ate dinner whilst watching the water push in and pull out constantly across the sand until eventually, laying your head on his shoulder, he placed his arm around your own.Â
âThank you. For everything youâve done for me.â
âThank you for calling me. Are you feeling any better?â
You nodded, gratefully. âJust a little tired, that's all.â
âIâll drop you off at home, soon, if youâd like.â
You nodded then looked at him. And before you could stop yourself, you asked him; âWould you stay with me? Tonight? If you canât- or if you donât want to-â
âIâll stay.â
âA-are youâŠsure?â
Jake nodded, a faint smile on his lips. âIâll stay with you.â
You didnât know what else to say other than thank you, so pressing a light kiss to his cheek, you said as much. âThank you.â
You could have sworn you saw him blush as he smiled and looked down. âAnytime.â
It was odd really, laying beside the man you thought youâd be telling your kids about when you were older. About how much you hated him and how much he hated you, and why neither of you could sit next to each other at the Thanksgiving table every year.Â
Jake had decided to stay in your guest bedroom, but the minute you heard him lay down in his bed, you feltâŠawake. Not wide awake. You were still tired. But you werenât settled. Something inside of you wanted to be closer to him.Â
So, after an hour of laying on your back, staring at your ceiling and listening to the distant shore line, with the odd rumble of a carâs engine running up and down the road every now and again, you got up.Â
Jake had left his door open. If you shouted for him, or needed him, he would be able to hear you. Usually, heâd be out like a light, waking up at the smallest of noises. But this time, he couldnât sleep.Â
Instead, his mind was going over the fact you had called him when you were at work. And the fact that he enjoyed it when you were with him. That he was the one you chose to lean on. And the fact that he wished he was down the hall with you at that moment, then lay alone in the dark in your guest bedroom.Â
Then he heard you.Â
From the dim, moonlit hallway, he saw you.Â
âHey, everything-â
âCan I stay with you?â
Already half way up, Jake paused for a second. Then nodded. ââCourse. Come âere.â
Walking over, Jake pulled the covers back and you climbed under them before feeling his arm wrap around you. And your arms came around him, one over his shoulder and round his neck, the other by his side.Â
Instinctively, he pulled one of your legs across him and held it there whilst his other arm remained securely around your back, holding you to him.Â
âIs this okay?â
He felt you nod and he nervously swallowed.Â
âAre you okay, Sweetheart?â
In a quiet voice, your breath against his neck, you answered. âBetter now.â
Pressing a kiss to your head, you nuzzled into each other.Â
âGood.â
Not too long after that, you both fell asleep.Â
And when you both woke up, neither of you wanted to move.Â
If this had somehow happened six months ago, you probably would have thrown each other to the other side of the room. But it wasnât six months ago. And youâd come to know Jake asâŠJake. Who took care of his friends, and made sure everyone was okay and was kind and caring andâŠa lot of other things you didnât want to think about at six oâclock in the morning.Â
And the way he was looking at you at that moment made you think about other things that you didnât want to think about.Â
âWhat are you thinking about?â Jake asked after a few moments of watching you study him.Â
âThat you need to stop looking at me like that.â
âLike what?â
âLike youâŠlike me.â
Jake smiled. âI do like you, Sweetheart.â
âJake.â
Then, for a moment, everything feltâŠserious. His tired smile dropped a little from his lips as he looked at you.Â
âDo you trust me?â
You felt your heartbeat pick up in your chest and for a moment, you wondered if he could hear it.Â
âYes.â
Tucking your hair behind your ear, you felt him cup your cheek. âY/nâŠâ
He seemed nervous.Â
âCan I kiss you?â
If you had let yourself think about it long enough, you never would have guessed Jake âHangmanâ Seresin, who went after whatever, and usually whoever he wanted, would ask if he could kiss. Youâd always assumed that he was so confident in life and with women that heâd know. That heâd see the small signals. Or even the loud ones. And justâŠkiss a girl.Â
But no.Â
He asked.Â
And something in your gut jumped.Â
So you answered; âYes.â
Nervously, he licked his lips before he leaned in. And kissing him feltâŠweird. Because it feltâŠnormal. Unlike anything else youâd felt in your life.Â
You managed to pull him closer, until he was leaning above you. âIs this okay?â
âYes.â
From there, the softer, searching kisses slowly faded away and turned into something more. More wanting, more needing. Feeling his hands move down your body before he gripped your hips, and pulled you closer to him and carefully slid them back up until the fabric of your t-shirt began to bunch together.Â
Feeling him press into your thigh, you let out a small noise that was only swallowed by his kiss. Swiftly, he pulled you across him, your legs straddling his lap before he sat up. Once more, he pushed the hair from your face and took you in, in the rising daylight.Â
No words were spoken out loud, but everything was said.Â
Leaning down, you kissed him again before letting your own hands move down his chest and towards the hem of his t-shirt. Except, just as he pulled you closer by your waist, his hips rocking into you, you both jolted at the sound of his alarm.Â
âSorry.â Jake quickly turned and switched it off. You were both going to be late for work.Â
âIf we donât get ready now, weâre gonna be late.â
Looking at him, you didnât know fully what to say. It had just been the hottest make out session of your life, with a guy six months ago people would have bet money on you killing. And youâd both been cock-blocked by his alarm.Â
âIâll meet you here, after work?â
That made you smile. âOkay.â
Then he did, too. âOkay.â Before throwing his phone to the side and pulling you down to kiss him. But as you pulled away, he groaned, trying to pull you back to continue but you walked a good three feet away from the bed.Â
âCanât be late, Hangman. Youâve got pilots to teach.â
With a coy smile, he was standing in front of you within seconds before lifting you onto the dresser behind you. This time, it was you trying to pull him back when he stopped kissing you. But he just stood back and let out a small chuckle.Â
âWeâve both got students to teach, Sweetheart. We stay here any longer, theyâre both gonna miss us.â
One final kiss to your lips, he stood back and practically ran away before you could grab hold of him.Â
Twenty minutes later, he was showered and dressed for the day and had poured you a coffee to-go as well as packed you another smoothie and grabbed your lunch for you before youâd come downstairs, dressed and began loading the last of the exam papers into your bags.Â
He dropped you back off at work, however, when you realised he was waiting in the parking lot for you to enter, you left your bags by the pillar and walked back. With his window already being down, you leaned in and kissed him, feeling his hand cup the back of your head.Â
âSee you tonight?â
âSee you tonight.â
The day for either of you couldnât have felt longer. And by the time Jake came walking through your back door, dropping his bag onto one of the pantry hooks, he couldnât have been more relieved to see you.Â
And for a moment, he just watched you as you sat on the sofa with crossed legs, flipping through a textbook and making notes. Softly, he approached you from behind before wrapping his arms around your shoulders.Â
You smiled.Â
âHey, Sweetheart.â
âYouâre back.â
You felt him relax against you. âFinally.â
âThereâs some food. I made you a plate in the oven.â
He pressed a kiss to your head before walking towards the kitchen. âI would have cooked.â
âI know, but I needed the distraction.â
Waltzing back inside holding onto the warm plate, he smirked as he popped a fork-full of veg into his mouth. You could already feel your cheeks heating and from the look on his face, he could see it clear as day.Â
âDistraction from what?â
âNothing in particular.â
âNothing, huh?â
At some point, he put down his plate and rounded back to the sofa, standing behind you before pressing soft kisses into the side of your neck.Â
âJake.â
The way you said his name went straight to his dick.Â
As he moved your hair, you leaned to grant him more access. A satisfied smirk came to his lips as he watched your legs move to straighten out.Â
âIâve been thinking about you all day, Sweetheart.â
Eventually, you felt Jake move away but he appeared again, lowering himself in front of you. Taking the textbooks and notes from you and placing them on the coffee table behind him, he leaned forward and pulled you in to kiss him.Â
âHave you been thinking about me?â
Feeling his hand move up your thigh and towards your shorts, you leaned in closer. âHave you, Sweetheart?â
âYes,â your voice came out breathy.Â
âIs this okay?â
You nodded.Â
âI need words, darlinâ.â
âYes. Yes, itâs okay.â
As time passed, the small part of you that was still able to function started to ask questions. Like why you had hated him so much in the first place? And how you almost missedâŠhim.Â
And by the time you woke up in the morning, Jake practically wrapped around you like a boa constrictor, you had come to a new conclusion.Â
You didnât hate him anymore.Â
You hadnât hated him for a long time.Â
All opinions you had of him, especially after a night of mindblowing sex, had been shot out of the water.Â
Jake âHangmanâ Seresin was no longer the man you thought he was. The man you had come to know and lo-Â
The man you had come to know was a man that showed up. And stayed. He was someone that took care of the people he cared about. He was someone that would fix things in your home without you asking. He was someone that cooked meals, even if it was almost one oâclock in the morning and you were craving a grilled cheese. He was someone that, even after sex, took care of you in a way nobody had ever even thought about doing before. He was someone that you could trust and respect, and did so.Â
Jake âHangmanâ Seresin was a man that had proved your theories wrong and he was a man that you realised you were falling for.Â
And in some ways, that scared you. And in some ways, it didnât.Â
Because, for as much as he could be so sure of himself. So bold. So confident, it bordered on cocky. You were also sure of him. Sure that, if he was feeling the same things you felt, that he wouldnât let you hurt yourself when you fell, but rather heâd catch you.Â
And it, surprisingly, didnât take him very long.Â
By the time you woke up in the morning and headed downstairs, freshly dressed in a worn Top Gun hoodie and a pair of sleep shorts, you started making breakfast. However, as you stood at the stove, flipping the bacon, you felt a newly familiar pair of arms wrap around your waist from behind.Â
Dropping his chin to your shoulder, Jake pulled you close to his chest.Â
âGood morning.â
âMorningâ.â He drawled. âWhatchaâ cookinâ?â
âBacon and eggs. Thereâs also toast in the toaster.â
With a smile, Jake pressed a kiss to your exposed collar which caused you to let out a small giggle before quickly turning the stove off.Â
âYouâve gotta be careful, Hangman. Youâll make me burn breakfast.â
He hummed a response. âI had a couple other meals in mind.â
âOh really? Like what?â
With his hands on your hips and his lips on your neck where you suspected heâd just left another hickey, he slowly turned you around. âI can think of one.â
Finally facing him, he kissed you as you fumbled with the last temperature gauge and turned it off. Picking you up, he carried you away from the counter near the stove to the one complete opposite.Â
âYouâre driving me insane dressed like this.â He mumbled against your kiss. âWearing my shirt.â
âYour shirt?â You asked as his lips moved to your neck.Â
Looking at you for a moment, half drunk on your kiss, he nodded. âDidnât you know, Sweetheart? This here is mine.â Pinching some of the fabric between his fingers he shook it as he told you so.Â
You laughed. âNo itâs not.â
He nodded. âGod's honest truth. Your brother stayed at mine one night after heâd gone out drinking. Lost his shirt, donât ask me how. Stole one of my hoodies. Never got it back.â
âHow do you know this is yours?â
With a smile, Jake showed you the small hole that youâd made a little bigger over the years from when youâd get nervous. âThis right here. Loose thread got caught in a cabinet I was fixing in my room. Pulled at it too hard. AndâŠâ
Jake watched as your expression changed a little, hungry for more of his touches, as he pushed his hand slowly up the inside of your- his hoodie.Â
A slight smirk, he pulled at the side tag and showed you. And it baffled you how youâd never noticed before.Â
J.H.S
âSee. But, I have to say, Sweetheart. It looks better on you than it ever did me.â
And as he was looking at you, he asked you something else. âLet me take you out on a date. A real one. You know, seeing you like thisâŠI never want to see anyone else like this but you.â
âJakeâŠâ
âIâm being serious. Sweetheart, I want you. And not just temporarily.â Then he looked away as he said the next part. âIâd get itâŠif you didnât want that. God knows you and I donât have the best history when it comes to even getting along but-â
âI want to date you.â
He looked up at you.Â
âI want to date you,â you repeated. âBelieve me, half of the time I donât get it myself. How weâve gone from one extreme to the other, but I knowâŠI know I want you around.â
âI want you around, too.â
âSo, yes.â
Jake smiled. âYes?â
You smiled back. âYes. Take me out on a date, Jake Seresin.â
Leaning forwards, he kissed you. And before long, your hands started to feel for the hem of his shirt before pulling it over his head.Â
It was safe to say, when you and Jake walked into The Hard Deck in the evening after your official first date, hand in hand before he pressed a kiss to your lips, a lot of people were shocked.Â
And lost a lot of money.Â
But Penny won it all.Â
She knew the minute Jake saw you, and your brother scolded him, that something would happen. After all, Hangman was known for going after what he wanted. She just never expected to have to be the one to force you to be in the same room and for that room to be a hospital.

pairing: early seasons!spencer reid x sunshine!fem!reader genre: fluff, roommate au, childhood friends warnings: general criminal minds violence, not beta-read oops a/n: I renounce the MoReid shippers; theyâre SIBLINGS !!!! also, apologies for lack of posts !! have been very busy with uni :( wc: 1.06k part 1 | part 2
Spencer was shot. It all happened so quicklyâ the sound of the gun firing, the grunt that he let out and the apprehension of the UnSub. Too quickly, but such is the fickleness of life. This was one of the rare occasions where the ballistic vest did not do its job, the bullet jamming into his side. Hotch was on the UnSub in seconds, the cuffs on his wrists before anyone could blink.Â
âShit, Reid,â Derek gasps out, watching the way blood seeps through his once pristine white shirt, and he presses his hand against the wound. âShit, Hotch! Hotch! We need a medic!â
***Â
âItâs going to be okay,â Aaron assures as best he can. His face is grim and Derek is shaking his head in frustration, hands trembling and cold from washing his hands over and over again. âItâs not your fault.â
âWe missed him,â Gideon mutters, âhe was right there and we missed him.â
âAnd Spencer got hurt because of it.â Elleâs gaze is set on the hospitalâs sign in counter.Â
Aaron understands their guilt. They caught the UnSub in the end, so nothing was ever in vain, but it doesnât change the fact that they didnât anticipate that he was at the end of the hallway waiting for the perfect moment to strikeâ and Spencer paid the price of their mistakes. The bullet hit him in the side where the vest didnât cover, the damage reaching his liver and kidneys. Aaron doesnât think heâs ever seen that much blood before.Â
âExcuse meââ a voice loud enough to cut through their brooding chimes from the reception desk. âHi. Hello, Iâm here for, um, Doctor Spencer Reid?â
The clerk glances at her for a brief moment before turning back to his computers. âWe donât have a Doctor by that name on staff.â
âUm, noââ a nervous laugh splits the air. âNo, heâsâ heâs not a doctor here. Heâs a patient? I got a call.â
He looks at her up and down before raising an eyebrow, mumbling something. âIs that you?â
âYes. Yes, thatâs me, is he okay? I came as soon as I could.â
âHeâs in surgery. Heâll be out in a few. Take a seat over thereââ He gestures over to where Aaron and the others are sittingâ âand the doctor will call you over.â
âRight. Right, okay, thank you.âÂ
Elle doesnât try hiding her confusion, looking up at you from her seat with raised brows. âYouâre here for Reid?â
You jolt in surprise, the heavy grip you have on your bag loosening in an attempt to calm down. âHi? Um, yeah. Heâsâ well, weâre on each otherâs emergency contact list.â
âItâs good to see you again,â Aaron says with a tight grimace. âI wish it were under better circumstances.â
Derekâs jaw unhinges. âYou knew?â
âEmergency contact list.â Aaron offers you a glance. âAre you okay?â
âI justââ your voice wobbles, a choked whimper leaving your lips. âI just want him to be okay.â
The team shares your sentiments. Itâs not often when thereâs an injury as serious as this on the field, but the risk is there. The room is tense with worry, the sound of doctors and nurses rushing around through the halls does nothing to ease their anxieties. Youâre already fearing the worst.Â
What feels like hours is only minutes as a nurse arrives in front of your little group.Â
âDoctor Spencer Reid?â She confirms, looking sympathetic as ever. âThe surgery was a success. The bullet grazed against his liver so he does need to stay for a couple of days for monitoring, but he should make a full recovery.â
âIs he allowed guests?â You blurt out hurriedly, the receipt in your hands crumbled in torn from incessant worrying.Â
âHeâs should be waking up now, but youâre welcome to see him. Iâll take you there.â The nurse offers a gentle smile. âGirlfriend?â
Heat roars against your cheeks and you shake your head adamantly. âNo, no, heâsâ weâre notâ heâs my roommate.â
The nurse hums, a knowing smile on her face. âI see.â
After a few quick goodbyes towards Aaron and the rest of the team, you hurry after the nurse whilst clutching your bag of goods. She opens the door wide, letting you inside before closing it behind you while you pull up a chair.Â
âI amâ I am so mad at you, Spencer Walter Reid,â you whisper, gaze fixed on his resting face and the hair that mats his forehead. You brush a few strands away from his eyes, your lips trembling briefly. âIâm so glad youâre okay.â
âSo youâre not that mad?â Spencer croaks out, his voice dry and his head pounding as he manages to lift his eyes towards you.
âSpencer.â Your arms are around his neck in an instant, careful as not to disrupt the wires and tubes that surround him. âIâm going to kill you.â
 âThatâs counter intuitive.â He laughs quietly, wincing a little at the suddenness before allowing his free arm to wrap loosely around your waist. He finds it uneasy, the way your lips fall into a wobbly frown and how your eyes look red and puffy from crying. Heâs only ever seen you look like this once before but thatâs nothing compared to this. This time you look like that because of himâ a silly little accident has lead to your pretty smile vanishing off your pretty face.
âYou suck. Iâm telling your mother.â He knows you wonât and heâs grateful that youâve found it in yourself to make a joke. When you pull away, he immediately misses your warmth, watching as you rummage through your bag before handing him a sealed cup of red jell-o. âIt was the last one they had.â
âYouâre an angel, really, but I donât think Iâm allowed to eat for a couple hours,â he murmurs, his fingers grasping gingerly at the cup.
With a wordless nod in acknowledgement, you press a thick leather bound book into his hands, your eyes meeting his gaze. âYour favourite.â
He breathes out his thanks, glancing up at you through the dim lights of the hospital room. âAre you going to stay?â
âAs long as you want, Walter.âÂ
***Â
From the other side of the door, Derek glances through the window at you and Spencer before looking back at Hotch. âTheyâre roommates?â
âApparently.â
âNo, butâ theyâre just roommates?â
âUnfortunately.â
reblogs are always appreciated !!

What If 141 and the best enemies to lovers line of all time...
"Who did this to you?"
Cue protective instincts and sexiness
hehe I am giggling!! Okay. Listen. I am fully aware that this is an enemies to lovers trope, but I don't think it applies to all of the 141 guys in that manner. Is there protectiveness? Yes. Is there a bit of spice? Yes, if you squint really hard. Is there also some sweetness thrown in? Absolutely there is. I had lots of fun with this one. I hope you enjoy it!
Presented in four double drabbles.

Task Force 141 x 141!Reader
Content & Warnings (per the warnings MDNI): swearing, brief blood and injury, hurt/comfort, brief suggestive themes, protectiveness, light angst

Kyle "Gaz" Garrick
âWho did this?â Kyle bends forward at the waist, pressing a bag of frozen peas to your face. His concern is genuine. You can see that, but itâs strange. The two of you get on, but this is something else.
Kyle looksâŠangry like your injury personally offends him.
âItâs nothing,â you murmur. âThings happen during sparing. Itâs fine.â
Kyleâs frown only deepens. He doesnât believe you. And why should he? The person you were placed with took it too far. And it was all to impress him as if putting you in your place would somehow grant his favor.
Itâs clearly done the opposite. He could care less about your sparring partner.
âIt was your sparring partner, wasnât it?â
You donât answer. Just press the peas to your forehead a little harder.
This time, Kyleâs frown turns slightly upward. âJokes on them, ya?â
You glance at him sideways. âHow so?â
Kyle is grinning. Itâs stunning. All pearly white teeth.
âBecause I have my eye on someone else,â he says simply, as if that answers everything.
Though you cannot see yourself, you feel your face growing hot under Kyleâs gaze.
âYou shouldnât say thing like that,â you reply.
âWhy? Itâs true.â
John Price
âWho did this?â
âWhy do you care so much, John?â
You attempt to pull your face out of his grasp but he holds firm.
âOf course I care,â he replies. The two of you stare into each otherâs eyes, chests heaving. John is close. Too close. So close he could easily brush his lips against yours.
âI donât know why,â you murmur.
âYou do,â he affirms, authority in his tone.
Do you? Maybe. Perhaps. Deep within yourself you truly know the reason but canât decide to speak it to the air. That would make this real. Whatever this is between the two of you.
âTell me who did this?â
âAnd do that what?â
âWhat the fuck I want to them, love.â
âItâs nothing. You shouldnât worry about it,â you reply, again trying to escape from him.
But John isnât having it. His other hand hooks around your upper arm, and then youâre pressed closed to him. He is so warm. All strength.
âLet go,â you say, but there is no volume behind it. It is weak. Not even a protest.
âTell me,â he repeats, head dipping slightly.
Yes. Close enough to kiss.
âTell me,â he says again, this time softer.
Simon "Ghost" Riley
Simonâs blood beats heavy. It is tinged with metal. A lace of fire that cannot abate.
His boots slap against the linoleum floor. The overhead lights are bright. Clinical. He is a shadow here. A dark specter.
No one stops him. No one glances his way.
And why should they?
He is a man made fury.
There were hands put upon you. A training exercise taken too far. Simon was not there. And he doesnât know why. Not exactly. But heâs furious. Protective. The fact that he could not stop this only infuriates him further.
To him, this is a failure.
He doesnât come to a stop. Doesnât knock. He barges right on in.
The nurse yelps. Spins suddenly. Face red.
You glance up, eyes wide at first but soothing slightly as they land on Simon. Youâre bruised. Stitched up.
Fucking hell.
âOut,â barks Simon.
The nurse leaves but stares him down the entire time. He approaches the table, and lightly brushes the backs of his fingers against the wound on your forehead.
âWho did this?â he asks.
âSimonââ
âWhich fucker?â he growls, bending forward slightly to look into your eyes.
âShould see the other guy,â you joke, smiling.
John "Soap" MacTavish
Johnny shouldnât feel this way. He shouldnât. Youâre not his. Even if he wishes it were so.
Every swing of his fist sends the building frustration outward, shooting into the massive boxing bag before him. Itâs a poor substitute for the face he truly wants to smash. Several faces that is. Two specifically.
Who did this?
The words slipped from him unbidden. An instant anger. You had only scowled. Told him you could handle yourself. And you can. Johnny knows this. But heâs still fucking pissed about it. Still seething.
All the fucker got was a quick slap on the wrist. A promise to not do it again.
That sits sour in Johnnyâs belly.
But you didnât cave, no matter how much Johnny insisted that heâd take care of it on your behalf. So he is here, punching the shit out of something that isnât flesh.
He wishes he could take away your pain. Take away the memory. Give it to himself to carry. You donât turn on your own. Thereâs no honor in what happened.
But as much as he wants it to be true, Johnny can do nothing.
You are not his.
Even if he wants to be.

Delivery!
Flash was currently being held captive in a black of ice. How he got like this he wasn't sure. All he remembered was that he was running across Central City keeping the peace until suddenly an ice beam shot out of nowhere and froze his feat to the ground.... and the rest of him.
"Alright you got me! Show your face!"
"Well I was going to regardless. No need to yell." Out pops Danny Phantom carrying a bag with him and holding out an envelope.
"What? Who are you?"
"My name's Phantom. Danny Phantom. I have a message for you. I couldn't get your attention earlier so I thought this was just the next best way to get you to stop." Danny said as he unfreezes the speedster.
"Uh, okay." Flash said as Danny gives him an envelope.
On the envelope there are drawing in crayon and stickers and in marker it says: to Flash.
"It's from Susie, she'd said you'd remember her."
He remembered a Susie, a little girl that he used to see in the children's hospital. She had leukemia. He spent any minute he could making sure the kid was smiling when he was there. He was heartbroken when the nurses told him that she had passed away before he could give her her birthday present. Flash examined the crayon written words, it was just like Susie's writing.
"How did you?"
"Just read it."
The letter reads:
Dear Flash,
I'm sorry, I wasn't there when you showed up for my birthday. I never got to tell you, but thank you for being at the hospital with me when I was scared of going to treatment or when I had to take my medicine. Thank you for making me smile even when I didn't feel well. Thank you for playing games with me when I couldn't go outside. Thank you for talking to my mom and dad at my funeral. That was really nice. I drew some pictures for you but I never got to finish them when I was in the hospital so I drew you some new ones. Danny says that he'll give them to you.
In the envelope was a series of different colored papers all with different crayon and marker drawings of Susie and him playing in different scenarios. One where she was a doctor and he played the injured patient. One where they were both superheroes. Another one where they were playing shadow puppets when she wasn't feeling well. Page after page were different drawings of them playing with the last one was covered in glitter with a big heart with a crayon drawing of him and Susie.
"Susie said that her biggest regret was that she couldn't say thank you to her hero before she passed. So I bumped her up on my delivery list."
"What?"
"Oh yeah, I never fully introduced myself. I'm Danny Phantom, you can call me Danny. I'm the designated delivery person for the afterlife to the living realm. Any messages or special requests from the dead are delivered by me!" Danny hands him a business card all official.
And it does say: Danny Phantom special delivery service for those of the non-living variety!
"She also said she wanted to give you one last hug before moving on."
"What do you?" Flash is halted from saying anything else as he feels a pressure against his legs. He looks down to see a translucent small figure. She was a picture of what she looked like before the chemo. Susie gives him a smile and a hug before fading before his eyes.
Before Danny officially takes up the mantle of Ghost King he's trying to do a job that would have him interact with all of his citizens first so he could get a feel of it. Hence him making connections with both the living and non-living people (he went big-brain for this idea)
Extra scene:
"Oh that reminds me, I have a card for you from someone else."
"A card?" Flash opens the card only to get sucker-punched in the face. (like one of those cartoon boxing glove punches)
"A punch card." Danny said
Flash groans as he looks at the card that has the words: STOP MESSING WITH TIME! from CW
Obligatory Gotham Scene:
Danny standing in front of a beaten up Joker that has been tied to a chair.
"Just so you know I have a back order of a lot special requests for you. And since I can't exactly kill you, that would create so much political tape. I can let them make requests for certain actions. So right now I have over 50 requests for me to break your legs and over 30 to pull out your teeth and break your jaw. Some of them contradict each other because they want to make every word you say hurt you but others want me to curse you so you can't speak again. So I'll just have to get creative." Danny says winding his arm back and form.
He is for sure being completely professional about, he gets no personal gratification from beating up a crazy clown at all. (said nobody ever)
#dp x dc#dp x dc au#dp x dc crossover#danny phantom x dc#the flash#barry allen#dpxflash#dp x dc prompt#Can you imagine a scenario of Danny just walking into the Wayne manor and just holding out a care package for the whole batfamily#This is from your Grandma and Grandpa#And gives Alfred his own separate care package along with a message of thanks for how much the butler does for the family#Danny's just like âthis is for the crime fighting family with the furry theme going onâ

Hotch request! Please sir, can I have a Hotch request? I'm trying to follow what you said about comfort but also Hotch being angry. So I get low blood sugars cause of my diabetes and I'd love if you wrote something about them being on a case and BAU!Reader is really busy trying to get stuff done, so she has a bad low blood sugar and sits down but one of the local officers thinks she's slacking off so she tries to keep going and Hotch comes in and defends her, making sure she has everything she needs and doesn't faint. Love you <3
ty for requesting!! hope this is okay <3 fem, 1.3k
âI understand.â You frown, phone pressed to your ear hard. âI totally understand, but itâs really important that I get to talk to her.âÂ
âSheâs on heavy medication,â the nurse replies, unimpressed by your asking, âshe wouldnât be much use anyhow.âÂ
âI understand, butââ
âListen, Iâm sorry, but we have a lot to do here. Iâm sorry we canât help. Bye.âÂ
You groan in frustration, bringing your phone from your ear to see the Call Disconnected notification flash across your screen. How are you and the team ever supposed to get answers if nobody wants to help? Your head rushes. You kid yourself into believing itâs annoyance like a hot flash, youâve been sweaty for ages, but then reality cuts through. What usually makes you sweaty and dizzy?
âWhereâs my test kit?â you murmur to yourself.Â
The door opens while youâre looking through your bag.Â
âAgent,â Officer Debs greets, a stout, sturdy woman with sharp eyes, âany news from Georgetown Psychiatric?âÂ
You rummage frustratedly through your things. You should know better than to misplace your test kit. Doesnât matter. Youâll just have to eat something quickly before you get any worse. âUh, no, nothing they could help me with.âÂ
âDid you call them?âÂ
Your eyelids are getting heavier. You sit down on impulse, worried youâre gonna fall if you stay standing. âYeah, I called them.â Youâve had diabetes for long enough to know what to do, but itâs always harder than it felt the last time when your blood sugar drops. It can be so sudden.Â
Realising you might need help, you clear your throat, about to ask Officer Debs if she can get the glucose tablets from your bag. You shouldâve grabbed them âyour thoughts are starting to thicken like someoneâs poured cornflour into your skull.Â
âIs now the best time for a break?â Officer Debs asks.Â
You focus very hard on bringing your attention into the present. âNo, sorry,â you say, standing up. You open your phone and direct to the contacts page, clicking your favourite contact at the very top.Â
Donât know m where test kit is, you text clumsily. Hotch should still be in the precinct. Do u have it ?Â
âI hope youâre texting someone about the case,â Officer Debs says sternly.Â
You shove your phone into your pocket. âUm,â you say, getting confused now, and not wanting to be shouted at. You grab for the page of phone numbers youâd been making your way through, canât get your hands to work. âI wasnât. But Iâm getting to it.âÂ
âWe really donât have time to waste.âÂ
âI know, but my blood sugarââ
She talks over you. âWhatâs the point in all our officers working day and night when you FBI agents canât be bothered to put in the same effort?â Her voice rises. âItâs ridiculous!â
âItâs not ridiculous, weâre trying our best just like you are.â
âClearly not!âÂ
âMy blood sugar,â you say, more insistently. âStop shouting at me.âÂ
The door opens quickly, creaking hard on its hinge. Hotch doesnât slam it open, he never slams anything, but he doesnât hesitate either. âI have it, you left it in the car after you tested this morning,â he says, your kit in his hand. He gives Officer Debs a surprised up and down. âWhoâs shouting?â he asks, unimpressed.Â
You wouldnât like to be on his bad side. âHotch, I need a tablet.âÂ
If heâs shocked at your lethargy, he doesnât say. He ignores the officer from that point on. âYes, I think so, too.âÂ
Hotch is more efficient than you were, grabbing your tube of glucose tablets and shaking one out into his hand. âCan you take it yourself?âÂ
âYou want to chew it for me?â you ask.Â
He tips it into your palm. âVery funny.âÂ
He opens the test kit on the desk and starts to extract the pieces. Itâs quite complicated, especially for people unfamiliar with it, but youâre pretty sure Hotch learned how to use it the day he knew you had diabetes. He wipes his hands with an alcohol wipe and presses a test strip into the meter, careful not to touch the end, before wiping your finger with a new wipe, and readying the lancing stick.Â
âGonna stick you, okay?â he asks quietly.
âMm,â you hum, the glucose tablet like chalk between your teeth.Â
He sticks you. Some days it feels more painful than other days, but today itâs like a pinprick in a haze. He squeezes your finger, wipes the first drop of blood with a cotton ball, and dips the test strip into the second bead of blood, careful not to jab your cut.Â
In the five seconds it takes for you to get a result on the meter, he kneels down, pressing another cotton ball to your finger to stem the flow of blood. âGood,â he murmurs to you. The meter flashes on the table. âNot so good. Fifty nine, huh? Howâd that happen?âÂ
You shake your head slowly from one side to another. âIâve no idea.âÂ
âOkay. Well, that tabletâs not gonna do it, honey. Do you have any gels?âÂ
âNo,â you say apologetically.Â
âThatâs fine. Iâll get you a drink.âÂ
Officer Debs clears her throat. You may be foggy, but her awkwardness is palpable. âIâll get it.â
âIt has to be full sugar. Coke, if you can,â Hotch says. She nods in understanding and leaves in record time. Hotch turns back to you, his severity melting away. âShe was shouting at you?â
âTried to tell her about my blood sugar. She told me weâre not here to waste time.â You close your mouth, licking the glucose off of your teeth.
âHow did you get so low?â he asks.
âMust have done something wrong this morning. Am I okay?âÂ
âWeâll see. I think youâll be alright.âÂ
âDonât usually get so dizzy.âÂ
âWhen was the last time you were below seventy?âÂ
âDonât know,â you mumble.Â
Hotch peels the cotton ball from your finger and packs your things away cleanly. âLetâs see how you feel in ten minutes. After your coke. Now⊠what did the Officer say to you?âÂ
Heâs getting his facts straight. Again, you wouldnât like to be on his bad side. You relay your conversation, Officer Debs hadnât even been that bad, just uppity, stuck on her own assumptions rather than willing to listen when youâd needed a hand. Her lack of empathy couldâve really affected you. Low blood sugar is no joke.Â
You tell him, savouring in the warmth of his hand on your leg, how uncaring he is to be kneeling in front of you on the precinct floor. He frowns at you long and hard.Â
By the time Officer Debs returns, heâs on his feet again. âA word?â he asks her.Â
You donât hear all of what heâs saying through the door as you sip your coke. He doesnât shout, but he defends you with a heavy gravity. Officer Debs speaks up and he cuts her down, something about understanding, and then a more clear telling off, âI donât want to hear about Agent L/Nâs performance from you again. Sheâs my agent, and if she needs a break, sheâll take one. Itâs none of your concern.âÂ
âI understand.âÂ
You feel much peppier when he comes back in, though he appears less so. âYouâre nasty,â you say, smiling, happy to be defended, and happier to know youâre not gonna pass out.
He crosses the room. Still frowning, he takes your face into his hands, and he leans down inch by inch, until heâs pressing a soft, soft kiss to your lips. You barely have time to close your eyes before heâs pulling away, thumb pressed into your soft cheek. âNobody gets to shout at you. Especially over your blood sugar.âÂ
âItâs usually you telling me off for letting it get low,â you mumble.Â
He stands up straight, leaving you wanting for another kiss you wonât get, hands stolen back from your cheeks. âYouâre ageing me prematurely. Drink some more coke, please, sweetheart.âÂ
âWhat do I get in return?âÂ
He touches your face briefly, as much of a promise as youâre going to get.Â

Part 8
You had planned to spend Sunday morning nursing a hangover with Mere and Tabitha, but after last nightâs events you had decided to catch up on organizing the shop while putting your phone on do not disturb.
You had turned your location services off in hopes that for a few hours the world would just leave you the fuck alone.
A few hours was all you were given before a tapping came on the front door of your shop around noon. Peering through the glass window, you spotted him.
He was holding a huge brown paper bag looking at little worse for wear since the last time he showed up. You debated on ignoring him. He had missed the early morning shower otherwise you really would have left him outside.
Bastard.
"John-" When you opened the door, he entered immediately. No doubt guessing you planned to slam the door immediately after telling him to fuck off.
He would have been right.
"Please," you say flatly before closing the door. "Do come in." After last night, after this week, the last thing you wanted to do was see anybody. Him, Johnny, Simon, Kyle, fucking Meredith or Tabitha. Why was it so hard for a person who had very few people in her life, all of which were on the skirts with her, to leave her alone for a single day?
"Well?" You asked when he said nothing. He cleared his throat, as if preparing himself for a long, drawn out speech.
Instead he handed you the bag, the smell hitting you. Warm and welcoming. Price was the only one out of the four who could cook a damn good meal, which made him extra picky when it came to eating out. âWanted to check in.â He stuffed his hands in his pockets, not knowing what to do with them now. âSimon said you had a rough night.â
You scoffed at the understatement. "Yeah," you hated this. You didn't want to tell John about your shitty night with your even shittier friends. "It wasn't the best night out."
"So you know that bloke who got handsy or was he just some random prick?" Your mouth fell open in shock. You didn't expect Simon to be such a fucking gossip. And how fuckin' dare John for thinking he had any right to know who was grabbing your ass and your involvement to that person.
No. Fuck that.
"We're not doing this," you said putting the bag on an empty display table. Fuck. You need to go ahead and unbox that shipment in the back.
"What?" He asked, oblivious as to what he said that was wrong. You push heel of your hands into your eyes, trying to stop the headache that was threatening to form. "Some prick took a feel of ya' and I want to see if-"
"If what?" You cut in. "If I need some comfort at being utterly fucking humiliated at Simon going all caveman in front of everyone and dragging me outside like a child? Or do you want to finish want Simon start with almost killing him!"
"From what I heard, he didn't kill him," John's audacity to correct you as if Simon's restraint was remarkable baffled you. "There's something to be said about that."
"He held him by the neck in the air like a ragdoll. He choked him out in the middle of the pub."
"But," he held up a finger. "he didn't break his neck. He knew you'd be upset."
"You're not seriously defending him right now." You could feel your blood pressure rising. Your lid ready to blow like a fucking kettle.
"From what Simon said it didn't look like the attraction was mutual." That gave you pause. Simon told John it didn't look... mutual. Could Simon tell you were uncomfortable? Did he hear everything Percy said?
Where the fuck did Simon come from anyway?
why the fuck was he at the pub in the first place???
Your mouth hung open for several beats. Any longer and a bug could fly in. But fuck if it didn't feel like cold water had been dumped on you. Why and how did Simon think it wasn't mutual? Why did he care??? Why was he acting like he didn't?
"He-" You began, trying to think of what to ask only to simply screech out "What?" John held his hands up in surrender. Your kettle whistled. You were pissed. More pissed than John had ever seen you and it was still a miracle you hadn't hurled the take out at his head.
"All I'm saying is if he grabbed you without an invitation and Simon saw, the prick is lucky to be alive, much less still walking around with hands."
"Si-" you started. "He-" You clinched your fists so tightly your nails painfully cut into the palm of your hand. "UGH!" You stomped your foot. It was childish, but you didn't care. "I don't need him rescuing me goddamit! I don't need any of you pissing on my legs like a fucking dog and-" you didn't stop. You weren't sure how long you carried on verbally lashing John nor did you give a single flying fuck.
Fuck him. Fuck Simon. Fuck all of them. They didn't get to stalk you and relay information like gossiping fucking school girls. They didn't get to break your heart and believe that you would let them piece it back together. They didn't get to neglect you only to realize you knew your worth. Only giving a shit until you walked away.
You went on and on until your throat ached. You weren't sure what thoughts had left your lips. You weren't entirely sure all what you said. All you knew is that you didn't feel any better. The look on Price's fallen face didn't give you any relief. You took it out on him and you were still hurting.
"Why?" Your voice was hoarse and pleading. "Why won't you guys just fucking leave? You were barely staying in it when we were together? Why now?"
He took a tentative step forwarding. His hands started to reach out to touch your arms before falling back down at his side. He knew he had lost the right to touch you. To comfort you.
"I miss you, Dove." He confessed it as if it would somehow make it all better. "We miss you." You try not to let it phase you, but fuck you were made of flesh, not stone. No matter how angry furious disgusted absolutely devastated you were with everything that happened, with what they did and didn't do, you still, or at least had, loved them. That love didn't vanish over the span of a week. Lord know your broken heart hadn't. "We'll do better."
"It's not that simple." You shook your head, your palms covering your eyes as they began to prickle. You hoped the motion would come across as tired frustration, but John knew. It was your tell. You were close to crying. You always rubbed your face when you were upset.
"It is." He said, finally taking the chance to touch you. Even if it was just to hold your hands in his calloused ones. "We mucked things up, let us fix it. Give us at least the change to be better."
"How?" You asked. "Stop fucking yelling at me for a couple of months until something makes you blow your fucking lid and I'm left feeling like a little kid who's in trouble?" You were surprised not to see him flinch away, but the soft look in his eyes was enough to break your heart all over again. "Or Kyle actually showing up for dates? Johnny not treating me like a fuck buddy?"
"We haven't been good to you." He admits and you still don't feel better. Leaving them hasn't made you feel any better. Only angrier. Yelling at him didn't. Fucking Johnny and breaking his heart didn't. Maybe Mer had a point. Just not with Percy. "We all wanted you and slacked off in doing right by ya."
"So what?" You press. "You want to resume where we left off? I just take you all back and work through the fact of how shitty you all were and hope that you make it up to me?
"No," he shook his head. "Not like that."
"Then what?" You asked.
"I'm fighting for me and you. No one else." You didn't know what to say. The four of them had always been a part of the deal. All or nothing. I mean, the fact that you even entertained the idea of being with all of them was the reasoning that if one of them had went down on the field, three more were there to take care of you.
"If the others can get their own shit together great." He shrugged his shoulders. "If I can't and they can, that's fine too." He stared in your eyes and for a moment, you thought about the first time John apologized for getting angry. Not at you, just in front of you. How he had gotten on his knees and told you the last thing he wanted was for you to be afraid of him. To look at him the same way recruits looked at him. "But I think where we failed was all of us was expecting another one to pick up the slack."
That much was true. Where others failed, others thrived. Simon always stayed after sex, Johnny never raised his voice, John was insistent on going on dates, and Gaz was emotionally available... when he was around at least.
"I know I wasn't the man I needed to be. I wasn't the man you deserved. I took things out on you that weren't your fault. I spoke to you in a way that if any other man did, I would knock him right the fuck out." He shook his head before giving your hands a squeeze. "I'll do what I need to do to set things right between you and me. I'll put in the work to do whatever it takes to have you trust me again."
"It wasn't about not trusting you." You counter
"But it is now." He said. "You don't trust me to respect you; to show kindness, patience. And I know I have my own shit to sort out before even thinking about us being like we were. When things were good, I mean."
You don't know what to say, but you can't say he's right. You don't trust him. Not with your heart. Not anymore.
Moments of silence pass before John lets go of your hands and takes a quick survey of the boxes around you. Your background music of Van Morrison still playing softly from the speaker near your computer.
"You seem busy, so I'll let you get to it." He takes in a deep breath. You're expecting another spiel about how he promises to work on it. Just to give him a chance. You're actually worried you'll consider it. "I picked up your usual. Figured things haven't changed that much since we last went to our spot down by the river."
"Haven't been there in a minute."
"You wouldn't." He said. "Closed the place and moved shop. It's over by the park."
"The one with the asshole geese or the one where Johnny and I were flashed by that guy strung out?" That makes him laugh. You can't remember the last time John laughed. The way his eyes crinkled and his smile shifted his whole face into something entirely joyous.
You missed it.
"Asshole geese." He answered before turning and heading to the door. You didn't speak until the chime of the bell rang.
"What if the others don't?" You ask before he had the chance to close the door. "Get their shit together, I mean."
He turned, giving you that signature closed smile that makes him look like a quokka. You told him that once and he had to googling before arguing that he didn't look like the world's happiest rodent. "That's on them. I have my own work to do." His smile dropping into something softer. Something pleading and pitiful. "But, we still want this. We all still want this. Want you."
You shook your head. The threat of tears returning as you realized how wrong he was. Maybe he did. But not all of them. "Simon doesn't." you huffed, arms crossing over your chest. "He's made that much clear."
"That I don't believe." He shook his head. "Not for a minute."
"Believe it." You sucked in air through your nose as if trying to clear it. Price knew he had to leave. He knew he couldn't see you cry. He knew you wouldn't want him to even if he wanted to stay and make up for all the times he was the reasons behind your tears.
"I didn't do what I needed to and I'll do whatever it takes to get you back." He promises. "But if it came down to it... if you want to settle down and just chose one of us to have you, to keep you," he took in a deep breath. The next words like a knife twisting in his chest. "I wouldn't truly love you if I didn't tell you that Simon is the only one of us who deserves you."
"Why?" You knew in that moment Simon hadn't told John about that night. About his cruel words and your realization that he was right. There was never a true happily ever after with them.
"Because he's the only one willing to hide in the shadows and let you live your life," his smile now gone completely. "I'm sorry that I'm too selfish to do that."

Right in Front of You

f!reader x roommate yunho
oneshot | mdni
1.2k
Y/N spends Valentineâs night searching for a hookup, only to come home empty-handedâuntil she realizes the perfect option was sitting in her apartment all along, proving that sometimes, the best things donât need to be chasedâtheyâre already waiting for you
nsfw tags under
f/m, vaginal sex, teasting, dirty talk, fingering, doggy style, top yunho, bottom reader, roommates, reader is on BC, roommates to fucking?
author's note: since yesterday was February 14thâaka Valentineâs Dayâbut i didnât post anything, i decided to drop a little post-Valentineâs treat ;))

Y/N barely managed to keep her balance as she fumbled with the lock, heels dangling from one hand, bag slipping from the other. She was still in last nightâs outfitânothing too scandalous, but enough to scream I was trying to get laid and failed miserably. Her makeup wasnât ruined per se, but her eyeliner had smudged just enough to give away that she hadnât just stepped out looking fresh.
The moment she stumbled into the apartment, Yunhoâs laughter rang through the living room. He was perched on the couch, long legs stretched out, nursing a mug of coffee like some judgmental prince.
âWell, good morning,â he drawled, a smirk playing at his lips. âWhat a sight I have right now.â
Y/N groaned, flipping him off without breaking stride as she tossed her shoes near the door.
âRough night?â Yunho asked, his tone drenched in amusement.
âYeah, tell me about it,â she grumbled, finally collapsing onto the couch next to him. âWhat about you? What did you do?â
Yunho took a slow sip of his coffee before answering. âMe? Oh, nothing crazy. Made dinner, played some games till like 2 AM, then went to bed.â He tilted his head toward her, eyes twinkling. âWhat about you? Who was the lucky one who took you home?â
Y/N groaned dramatically, draping an arm over her face. âThatâs the thing. Youâd think that on Valentineâs Day, the club would be filled with hot singles, right? But no. Just couples everywhereâkissing, slow dancing, rubbing their happiness in my face. Not a single man in sight.â
Yunho hummed, setting his mug down on the coffee table. âHuh. Well, I was alone yesterday, you know.â
She peeked at him from under her arm, brows furrowing. âWhat are you saying, Yunho?â
He turned to her then, closer than before, his gaze no longer teasing but intent. His voice dropped, slow and deliberate.
âIf you wanted action,â he murmured, âyou didnât have to go to some stupid club.â
Y/Nâs breath hitched as Yunho leaned in, close enough for her to catch the faint scent of coffee and whatever stupidly nice cologne he always wore. His arms rested on the couch, caging her in.
Her lips parted slightly, a mix of confusion and anticipation making her pulse spike. âYouâwhat?â
Yunho scoffed, tilting his head at her like she was the dumbest person heâd ever met. âYouâre actually so blind, Y/N,â he muttered, voice thick with amusement but something else tooâsomething darker, something hungry. âYou had the easiest opportunity to get laid right in front of you this whole time.â
His fingers trailed up her thigh, just barely skimming the fabric of her dress, and Y/N felt her brain short-circuit.
Looping her fingers behind his waistband, she tugged him even closer, their lips a hairâs breadth apart. âIf thatâs true, then maybe you should do something about it,â she murmured.
Yunho didnât need to be told twice.
His mouth crashed against hers, hands sliding up to cup her face, thumbs digging in just enough to make her gasp. That was all the opening he needed, tongue slipping past her lips as he pressed his body flush against hers.
Heat coiled low in her stomach as Yunhoâs hands abandoned her face in favor of something much more sinfulâone slipping under her dress, the other palming her breast as he deepened the kiss, tilting her head just the way he wanted.
Y/N moaned into his mouth, fingers fumbling at his shirt, nails dragging over his abs before slipping beneath the waistband of his sweats.
âFuck,â Yunho growled against her lips, his breath coming out shaky. âYouâre really desperate, huh?â
Y/N had half a mind to be embarrassed, but then Yunho was pushing her dress up around her waist and dragging her panties down her thighs, and any rational thought she had completely dissolved.
He let out a low groan, fingers sliding through her slick folds, teasing her entrance before slipping one inside. Y/Nâs breath stuttered, her back arching at the delicious stretch.
âShh, keep quiet for now,â he murmured, smirking when she let out a sharp gasp. âWeâll see how long you last before youâre screaming my name.â
Y/N was about to snap back at him, but then he added another finger, curling them just right, and her head hit the back of the couch, a strangled moan ripping from her throat.
Yunho chuckled, working his fingers into her at a pace that was just slow enough to be torturous.
âYouâre soaking wet,â he mused, voice dripping with satisfaction. âAll that time looking for a one-night stand, and you couldâve just asked me.â
Y/N barely managed to glare at him, her fingers digging into his arms as she rocked against his hand, chasing the friction. âStop talking and do something.â
Yunho raised a brow, then grinned. âOh, youâre gonna regret saying that.â
In one swift motion, he withdrew his fingers and flipped her over, pressing her chest against the couch as he yanked her hips up. Y/N gasped, arching into him as he shoved his sweats and boxers down just enough to free himself.
She turned her head slightly, eyes widening as she caught sight of his cockâthick, flushed, and already dripping at the tip.
âOh, fuck me,â she breathed.
âThatâs the plan,â Yunho smirked, dragging the head of his cock through her slick folds before teasing her entrance.
And then he pushed in.
A broken moan ripped from Y/Nâs throat as he sank into her, inch by inch, stretching her out in a way that had her thighs trembling.
Yunho let out a shuddering breath, his grip on her hips tightening. âFuck, youâre tight,â he hissed. âYou feel even better than I thought you would.â
Y/N barely had time to process that statement before he snapped his hips forward, burying himself to the hilt.
She choked on a gasp, back arching, hands scrambling for purchase against the couch.
âOh my Godââ
âYeah?â Yunho groaned, pulling almost all the way out before slamming back in. âGo on, baby. Let me hear whoâs making you feel this good.â
Y/N squeezed her eyes shut, nails digging into the cushions. âFuck, Yunho! You!â
He growled at that, fingers tangling in her hair as he yanked her head back slightly. âThatâs right,â he murmured against her ear before biting down on her shoulder, setting a pace that had her body rocking against the couch.
Y/N felt like she was burning, pleasure coiling in her stomach as his thrusts grew rougher, more desperate.
âI can feel you squeezing me,â Yunho groaned, his hand sliding around to rub tight circles against her clit. âYou gonna cum for me, baby?â
Y/N nodded frantically, barely able to form words. âY-Yeah, fuck, Yunhoââ
Her body tensed, pleasure exploding through her as she came with a cry, trembling beneath him. Yunho followed soon after, spilling deep inside her with a groan, his body slumping against hers.
For a moment, all she could hear was their ragged breathing.
âSo... you wanna tell me that all this time I couldâve been getting the best dick ever, and instead Iâve been suffering in silence?â
Yunho chuckled against her skin. âWell, I guess we have time to make up for that.â

Ain't In California Anymore - T.Owens
Synopsis: After deciding to uproot your life for a change of scenery from San Diego California you decide to take a trauma nurse position in Tornado Alley. You don't expect to survive your first tornado let alone meet the resident cowboy tornado wrangler.
Pairing: Tyler Owens x Nurse!Reader
Warnings: 18+, mentions of extreme weather, lots of flirting - tyler owens is a warning in himself i mean c'mon.
The Request: Hiii :) I was wondering if I could request a Tyler Owenâs story. Where the reader is from California and had to relocate to Oklahoma because of her job in healthcare. But at an event or before going to work, thereâs a tornado warning and sheâs not sure what to do so Tyler protects her and makes sure sheâs safe. But then the next day he visits her at work and asks her out?:)
authors note: to the sweet anon who requested this fic, please please I hope I have put words to your vision. & THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for this request as this is my first one! In the years I've been writing I did not ever expect this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and please enjoy this fic!! <33
The rain poured as you stood in the middle of San Diego Airport. The waves crashing on top of one another. Your life packed at your side as the announcements continued.
âFlight 214 to Oklahoma has been delayed two additional hours, an F.4 tornado has just landed in tornado alley. More updates to comeâ.
You sigh and sit back down against the window as the rain continues beating on the glass. Pulling the headphones from your bag and pulling the laptop out, you make yourself comfortable. After an additional six hours the plane was in the sky.
3AM before you would land in what the flight attended referred to as Tornado Alley.
The city was lit with skylights, covered in destruction. The F.4 tornado that landed hours earlier wiped half of the cities apart. You could see cars miles and miles away from where they probably were hours before. The flight attendant smiles as the plane lands, waving as you exited the plane.
âWelcome to Oklahomaâ she grins as you follow the crowd out of the terminal. Looking around the airport it looked like nothing happened, everyone continued on their day as the world was in shambles.
Making your way outside you couldnât believe the amount of debris in the roads. The odds of getting a cab were slim. âNew to the area?â a voice says beside you, looking over you smile at the man with a kind smile.
You nod with a sigh, âI am, first few minutes as a matter of factâ he chuckles making his way to you, hand held out. âWell, Welcome to Oklahoma, Iâm Javiâ you grin, reaching out to shake his hand, â(y/n)â.
He looks you over before speaking again, âmy best tip is to just keep watching, Iâm sure youâve been waiting a while, or⊠I could give you a ride?â he proposes as you smile slightly. âTruly? I donât want to wait any longer, I start my job inâ looking down at your watch you sigh. âTwo hoursâ you chuckle as he nods with a kind smile.Â
âWhat brings you to Oklahoma?â he asks, your mind is elsewhere as you see all the destruction that lined the streets. âHm?" You ask as he asks again, âoh, I needed a changeâ you say with a smile. He nods continuing down the road in silence. âWhere are you from originally?â he asks again, letting curiosity get the best of him.
âSan Diegoâ he nods with a smile, âwow this is gonna be a change for youâ he notes as you chuckle, âtotallyâ. He pulls into the hotel you were staying in, still standing. âWell good news is the hotel is still hereâ you chuckle, climbing out of the truck.
âThank you so much for this, this definitely would not have happened if I was in San Diego. Though, you could've kidnapped me or something soâ he chucklespulling your luggage from the truck bed.
âIt's our southern charmâ he grins, handing the bags to you, pulling a card from his back pocket. âHere, if you need anythingâ you look down at the card.
âStorm Par?â you ask looking back at him as he grins. âWe chase tornados, at least to put it in non scientific termsâ he smiles as you nod, shoving the card into your wallet. âIs that a normal thing here in Oklahoma?â he grins with a shrug. âThereâs a lot of us out here if that's what you meanâ he makes his way to his side of the truck.
âGood luck on your first day!â he smiles. You make your way inside waving as he drives off. Maybe Oklahoma wasnât going to be so bad.
Mercy Hospital Oklahoma City. The letters buzzed as the energy drink dripped condensation on your palms. Walking through the emergency room doors you look around. âYou look lostâ a voice says with a grin, looking over you smile at the brunette.
âIâm (y/n)â you smile as she gasps, âoh my gosh! The trauma nurse from california!â she grins, holding a hand out to you, âIâm Natasha!â she smiles as you shake her extended hand. âNice to meet youâ she smiles, pulling you along beside her.
âWelcome to the crew, did you get in okay?â you chuckle with a shrug. âDepends on your definition of okayâ she gasps as she helps you onto the elevator.
âIâve only been hereâ looking down at your watch âfor 3 hours, I got maybe an hour of sleepâ she gasps. âIâm so sorry! We couldâve pushed back your start timeâ you shake your head.
âI am used to this being a nurse and all but now I have to adjust to tornadosâ she waves her hand with a chuckle. âYou will get used to thatâ she grins, knocking on the door. âJust want you to meet our head nursesâ the voice on the other end encourages you in. âMaria, this is (y/n), from Californiaâ she pulls her glasses off her nose and stands.
âAh yes, our new trauma nurseâ she walks around the desk, holding her hand out to you. âNice to meet you Maâamâ you grin, shaking her hand.
An Oklahoma ER was so much different than a San Diego one. âHowâs it going Cali?!â Natasha grins from her place at the nurses station. Pulling the latex gloves off your hands and tossing them into the trash beside you, you chuckle.
âThis is so much different than Californiaâ you note, sitting down at the available computer to begin typing in medications. âIâm sure you see so much more there huh?â she asks as you nod. âI worked at a Navy hospital too so I saw so muchâ she nods as you continue on with typing.
âAh yeah thats gonna do it, the most you will see here is a farming accident and even then the accident will be weeks old and a farmers wife shoved him into the EDâ you chuckle, turning to her.
âIs that so? How about after tornadoes?â you ask as she moves to sit in the chair beside you. âYes and no. We get a lot of people in sure as the amboâs bring em but a lot of field nurses tooâ you nod, handing the next chart to the provider passing by you.
Within hours, beds were clearing until they werenât and sirens began to wail. âAll hands on deck people we have a multi-casualty car accident, multiple patients en route!â Maria yells down the hall as everyone follows after her, multiple ambulances lined the med bay.
This was definitely not California anymore.
The lights from the diner sign buzzed as you shut the engine off the rental car. The dashboard flashing 3am. What was supposed to be an easy first day turned into a busy one. You climb out and make your way inside.
The smell of coffee brought a smile to your lips as you picked a secluded booth and sat down. After ordering with the waitress, you sat back with the daily newspaper,sipping on your coffee.
âWell, I didnât expect to find you hereâ you look up at the voice, Javi stands with his hands on his hips. âWell I didnât expect to see you eitherâ you set the mug of coffee down. âHow ya doin?â he asks with hands on his hips, you chuckle.
âJust got my ass kicked on my first day. What are you doing out here at 3am?â you ask as he nods, motioning to sit across from you, nodding he sits down. âSome field workâ he notes as you hum. âSo, what exactly is it you do?â you ask as he chuckles, smiling at the waitress.
âI study tornadoes, I find ways we can eventually stop them before they cause so much destructionâ you nod slowly looking at him "So I chase it, i try to get as close to one as I can" he grins. âIâm sorry what?!â you ask as he laughs.
âI chase em to study emâ he notes as he sips his own coffee with a smirk. âWho in their right mind chases tornadoes?!â you exclaim, a truck driver at the bar looking over at you with a snarl. âCrazy folkâ Javi replies with a smile.
The waitress smiles and sets the plate of pancakes down in front of you. You nod with furrowed brows, âare you insane?â he laughs with a nod. âI am indeedâ you sigh with a shake of your head, eating a piece of the pancake. âSo thereâs multiple people who chase tornadoes?â The conversation kept falling back to the one thing that fascinated you the most, tornadoes.
âYep, thereâs me and my company and thereâs so many more, you will probably come across some in your time hereâ he reaches over and points to the newspaper on the table.
âThatâs tyler owens, heâs out of kansas but heâs been hanging around here a lot lately. He calls himself the tornado wranglerâ.
+
2 weeks.
It was two weeks before you heard the first siren. The local farmers market was always crowded on nice days. You continued browsing through the local fruits and vegetables when the first siren goes off.
Looking up from the fruit you had in hand, you noticed the booth owner on edge. With wide eyes they looked around frantically, you did as well, looking around as the world began to move in slow motion.
The wind chimes on another booth begin to sway. The world stopped and you stood in the middle of the chaos. Around you everyone begins to pick things up quickly and rush into the surrounding buildings.
You stood there as the wind began to scream. You could hear yelling around you but it was nothing compared to the sound of the wind. The sky was almost something out of a movie, looking up the clouds were dark. Something was coming, something bad. âHey!â you can hear the yelling of one of the vendors.
In slow motion, you look up to the clouds as they opened and the rain began to pour. Blinking, you are stuck there in the middle of the street.
You had no idea how long you were there till you felt hands on your shoulders. âHey! Hey!â they are shaking you, blinking when you look over. You knew his face.
Tyler Owens.
âHey, listen to me, we can't stay hereâ heâs got a hand on your elbow encouraging you towards one of the buildings. The siren is louder and closer. Tyler's eyes shift to behind you and your curious eyes follow.
The tornado and it was moving quickly. His eyes are frantic as he quickly pulls your body into an alley.
Tripping over your feet, your cardigan was heavy on your skin as he looked at you. âI need you to trust me right now okay?â his shirt was heavy to his skin, water dripping down his nose.Â
The concrete wall was rough against your skin.
You donât remember when you even made it up against the concrete wall or how the wall of a man was in front of you or how your knuckles were sore from the grip you had on his once plaid shirt.
Your eyes open, looking around frantically as you feel your pulse quicken. Panting you are pushing the hairs off your forehead.
You just survived your first tornado.
The city was quiet. You fall to your knees, continuing to try and catch your breath. âHey, Heyâ you hear his voice again as you begin to sob. How could you be crying right now?
âItâs okay heyâ his hand is on your back, rubbing soothing circles on your spine.
âYouâre okayâ he encourages you to sit back against the wall. You can hear the screams of others, finding their lives uprooted. He sits down in front of you, legs crossed and hands on your own knees as your breathing slowly evens out. âThere ya goâ his thumb is running over your knee gently in comforting circles, looking over your face.
âIs this your first tornado? âHe chuckles as you nod frantically. âOh shitâ the smirk is off his face quickly as he stands, helping you up.
You watch as all of the first responder vehicles are filing in. You noticed the white ram and other Storm Par trucks that follow.
âTyler!â looking over at the voice, a man is standing at the end of the alley. âOh thank god!â he yells, grabbing the walkie off his hip and rushing to the two of you.
âBoone!â Tyler meets him halfway, hugging him tightly. Tyler turns back to where you stood, you were gone.
Tyler looks around the alley frantically. He then looks down and finds your badge.Â
Rushing out of the alley, you frantically look for the Storm Par truck. âJavi!â you yell, rushing to him over all the debris. â(y/n)?!â he meets you halfway, holding a hand out to help you over a pile of what was a vendor booth.
He can see the tears on your face as you pant, gripping his hand tightly. âHow can I help?! Do you have first aid in that truck?â He admired your willingness to help but he could also see you were soaking wet and riddled with fear.
âWhat are you doing out here?â he asks as you shake your head, âthere's no time for that, people need help!â you point behind you.
Pulling your soaked cardigan off you quickly push past him to the truck, rummaging through it. âHey,heyâ he is quick to grab your elbow.
You had an open cut on your forehead and a couple scrapes but it was nothing you couldnât handle.
âLet me help Javiâ you whisper, fear in your eyes as he nods slowly. âOkay, okayâ he holds his hands up in defense as you begin to move through the debris to find people that need help.
+
The hospital was overflowing with people. You continue to push through your bag as you smile at the security guard at the door, âmornin steveâ he chuckles. âItâs 3pm young ladyâ you grin, looking over at him with a shrug, âmorning for meâ. He nods as he sits back in the chair, watching over the ER.
âCali!â Natasha stands from her chair with a grin. âOh my god!â she is quick to come around the counter to stop in front of you.
âWhat happened to you?â with her hands on your chin she is turning your head in multiple directions. âI uh-â you bit your lip, how do you explain this?.
âI got caught in a tornado?â she gasps, grabbing your elbow and pulling you into a room. âYou did what?!â She is quick to grab gloves and pull them on. âI froze Natâ you whisper, looking up at her âit came so fast and I mustâve hit my headâ you shrug.
She sighs, pulling the band-aid you had on your forehead off. âYou donât need stitchesâ she tsks, cleaning it gently with an alcohol pad as you wince. âTyler Owens was thereâ you mumble as she stops, looking at you âthat heart-throb out of kansas?â.
You canât help the chuckle you let out, nodding. âHe helped me, it was really nice of himâ she nods. Putting the bandage on your forehead, she pulls the gloves off and tosses them into the trash.
âUnrelated to thisâ you mention as she crosses her arms with a raise of her brow. âI lost my badge I thinkâ she shakes her head, âwe can get you another no problem thereâ. She smiles, ânow let's get you clocked in, weâve got a busy day!â.Â
The overhead speaker picked up with a squeak. âPaging (y/n) (y/l/n) to the front desk, paging (y/n)(y/l/n)â you furrow your brows, setting the pen down and looking over at Natasha and James. âWhat is that about?â you ask, standing from your chair as the two of them shrug.
Steve walks in with a grin, â(y/n)â. Looking over at him, your eyes can't help but to fall to the man beside him.
Pulling the white stetson from his head, Tyler Owens smiles shyly with flowers in his hand and your badge in the other.
âOoooooooâ you snap your head over to Natasha and James with wide eyes. âSorry to drop in on you like this Maâamâ you choke, looking over at Tyler. His smile grows as you come around the counter. The green scrubs were cute but you were the most beautiful thing he had seen since he saw his first tornado.
âI think I have something that belongs to youâ he holds the badge out on the dainty badge reel. You sigh with a smile, looking up at him going to take it from him but he pulls it back.
You scoff, looking up at him, âthat belongs to meâ. He smirks, shaking his head ânope, you have to ask nicelyâ he smirks as you groan, pulling him into an exam room and shutting the door.
As you do Natasha and James both sending you thumbs up from the nurses station.
"What gives you the right?â crossing your arms over your chest, he grins. âYou have to ask nicely, that's what we do round here city galâ he smirks as your eyes widen. âCity girl?â he nods, leaning back against the bed, crossing his leg over the other.
âYou donât know anything about me Owensâ he raises a brow, âis that so?â he twirls the badge around his pointer finger. âI know youâre from California, San Diego to be exactâ he raises his brow as you sigh. âJaviâ you mumble under your breath as he nods. âCorrectâ he smirks looking at you through his lashes.
âCan I please have my badge back? I have to get back to workâ he nods, hands held up in defense, pushing off the bed and walking back to stand in front of you. Looking up at him, you canât help but to be intoxicated by the smell of his cologne.
He looks down at you, putting the stetson back on his head with a smirk. âAgree to a date, you can have the badgeâ you scoff. âExcuse me?â he nods, holding the badge between your bodies.
âA date for the badgeâ you sigh, nodding. âFine, oneâ he grins, dropping the badge in your palm. Opening the door, you follow him out, he yells over his shoulder âsee you soon California!âÂ
+
It became traditional for you to sit in the back booth of the diner down the road from the hospital. Every morning youâd sit with the local newspaper. Learning your new home.
Itâs how Tyler Owens found you.
Heâd been to the hospital every single day to officially ask you out on your date. Except he either missed you or your shift hadnât started yet. The bell above the door rings as multiple people shuffle through the door.
Looking up from your cup of coffee you see the white stetson. Sinking down in the booth, you attempt to hide yourself with the newspaper.
âIâm telling you lil, you can get it in the air with just a few minor adjustmentsâ you tried not to listen, âthereâs nothing wrong with it booneâ lily, you assumed replied.
Looking back down at the local events in the paper, the seat across from you shifts and you can hear the air deflate from the plastic cushion.
âCalifornia, Iâve been lookin for youâ slamming the newspaper down on the table, Tyler canât help the shit-eating grin that grows on his face. âTylerâ you sigh, sitting up in the seat. âI owe you, no- you owe me a dateâ he grins.
âFirst, you know my name is not Californiaâ you address as he sits back in the seat, reaching over to grab your unoccupied cup of coffee.
He hums as you continue with a scoff. âSecond, you are the one who left me high and dryâ he chuckles with a shake of his head, âno maâamâ. You sigh, pulling your mug out of his hand sitting back with it between your palms. âSo, when?â you challenge with brows raised.
âTomorrow, do you work then?â he asks as you shake your head. âI actually have tomorrow offâ he grins, âperfect, meet me here at about 7?â he asks as you nod slowly. â7 it is, what should i wear?â he taps his chin gently then grins.
âCasual but whatever you are comfortable inâ he smiles, standing from the booth and tipping his hat towards you. The group of his friends hoot and holler as he makes his way back to them.
âThat boy seems really into youâ Jo, the waitress grins as she pours your cup of coffee. âIs that so?â you ask as she nods, âmy husband was the same way, billy absolutely did not give upâ she smiles sadly.
âAm I crazy?â you ask her as she shakes her head, ânowhere close sweetheartâ she pats the top of your head as she approaches their table. You watch as the group continues to talk among themselves, ordering with Jo and making her laugh.
You watched the clock all day long. Chewing your lip, you look at Jo, standing in the diner. âIs it too much?â you ask, nervously picking at the blouse you chose to wear. She chuckles, shaking her head with a soft smile. âYou look beautiful honeyâ she reaches over to take your hand, âtry and have fun okay? You never knowâ she squeezes your hand gently.
Nodding you smile at her, âthank you for everythingâ she grins. At almost 7 on the dot the red Dodge Ram pulled into the parking lot of the diner. You smile from the steps, standing in the outfit you chose.
He grins, climbing out of the truck. Tyler opted for a pale blue button up and a brown stetson opposed to the white. âNo white hat today?â you tilt your head as he approaches you, small bouquet of flowers in hand. You look down at them first with a small smile. âThought Iâd spice it up for yaâ he winks handing the bouquet over to you.
âFor you Californiaâ you smile, taking them from his outstretched hand. âTheyâre beautiful,â he smiles, holding his arm out towards you. âSo are youâ he walks you to the truck, opening the door to help you inside.
Looking around the truck, you admire everything from the center console to the straps for seat belts. Tyler shuts the door after you, making his way around and climbing into the driver seat.
Sitting back in the seat you canât help but let Joâs words play in your mind. She stands in the window with a smile, watching as the truck pulls out the parking lot.Â
The stars lit up the night sky of Oklahoma. Sitting on the top of tyler's truck, eyes glued to the sky. âWhat brought you to Oklahoma?â His voice is soft as he continues to eat the slice of pie he brought.
âA position opened for a trauma nurse and truthfully I was over the city lifeâ you sigh, turning to face him with a shy smile. âTrauma nurse huh?â he asks, offering you a piece of the pie on the fork. Taking the fork, you eat the piece and nod. âI was a Trauma nurse at a Navy hospital in San Diegoâ handing the fork back over to him, he looked at you with a small smile.
âI see,â he nods, going back to the pie. âWhy do you wrangle tornadoes?â you ask as he chuckles softly. âWhen I was about eight years old, I saw my first one,â he continued, picking at the pie crust, looking back up at you. âIt was beautiful. Sounds crazy Iâm sure but I wanted to know moreâ he admits, looking back out to the setting sun. âSo, you went and learned more?â you ask as he nods with a chuckle.
âI started college, never finished, found the thrill much more fun than a textbookâ he looks over at you with a smile. The setting sun made his green eyes almost greener.
âYou may have to take me someday,â you admit, leaning against him gently. âThis mean youâre sticking around Cali?â he grins, looking down at you.
You nod slowly, âyeah, yeah I think I might be around for a whileâ you look up at him with a smile.
+
Walking through the ED door, you smile, passing by Steve. He grins, âgood mornin young ladyâ he tips his hat as you wave. It had been two months since you landed in Oklahoma. Natasha smirks from the nurses station, arms across her chest with. âHello to you tooâ you reply walking past the nurses station towards the locker room.
After setting your things inside your locker, you make your way back to the nurses station. âSomething came for youâ James grumbles from his seat, sipping on what you could guess was his second red bull of the day.
âOh?â Natasha smirks as she holds the vase of wildflowers out to you. You smile, taking them from her to gently set down to read the card:
âTo Cali,
If you feel it, Chase it. We can chase it anytime. Glad you are staying for a while ;)
Tyler xoâ
You canât help but laugh. The two of your friends look over as you grin, laughing harder. âTheyâre from Tylerâ Natasha smirks with raised brow.
âI think youâve got yourself a boyfriendâ you chuckle, shoving the card back into the flowers.
Maybe Oklahoma wasnât going to be that bad.

âReady to become uncles?â You asked, a yawn following your words.Â
Remus smiled at you, soft and sleepy from the couch facing yours. His cane rested on the arm of the couch, abandoned for the comfort of the shitty hospital seat. Remus nodded wordlessly.
âI reckon Iâll be a terrible uncle,â Peter gruffed as he shook the box of candies into his mouth, emptying it âI have nothing to teach this bloody baby-â
âI donât think anyone expects you to teach him anything Wormtail-â Sirius pipped up with a laugh from the corner where he paced in circles, head swiveling towards the room James and Lily were in as a nurse hurried out of it.
You ignored the bustling of nurses, you had long learned by now that unless you saw James, it probably didnât mean anything.
âWhy on Merlinâs green earth did they decide to give birth in a muggle hospital-â Peter groaned into his hands, the hours of waiting bearing down on him.
âLily refused to do a home birth remember? St Mungoâs doesn't exactly do the whole birth thing- â Remus muttered from the small beige sofa he had curled up in, long legs spilling from the edge of the cushions. You wondered if he was comfortable, but his eyes were closed and he had barely moved in the past two hours so you assumed on some level he probably was. Well, between his cardigan and long pants, he was at least doing better than you. You could feel your skin start erupting in goosebumps from the cold.
It had been a blur really, the furious knocking at your door at the hands of Peter, and haphazardly putting on the first thing you found after basically clawing off the stuffy funeral dress. You didnât even have enough time to grab a jacket, barely putting on shoes as Remus and Peter swept you off to the muggle hospital. A shiver ran down your spine as you cursed the pajama shorts and stupid t-shirt you had thrown on.Â
You could feel Siriusâs grey eyes on you, staring straight into the side of your head. But you refused to look, instead burying your face further into your hands. You didnât notice he had moved until he was right next to you-Â
âTake it-â Sirius handed you his suitâs jacket, basically shoving it into your arms so you couldn't say no. âYouâre going to get sick,â You stared at it, fingers softly squeezing the soft material. He sat next to you.Â
The small, beige couch you had chosen to sit on was much like the one you had when you were freshly moved in. It lived in your home for a measly two weeks before Euphemia decreed that no child of hers would have such a stiff abomination in her watch. It was hard and restricting. The two of you might as well have been sitting on a wooden bench. But neither of you dared to move, so you sat, silently, both wishing Euphemia could save you from the clutches of the rigid couch.
Sirius thought of the sofa. And when you first moved in. Together and bright-eyed, he had been so in love with you then. He reckons he still was. But now he knew there was no hope of you loving him back.
He cursed the couch silently.
âPut it on,â he sighed as he leaned back, his white button-up shifting as he threw his arm over the backrest. âDonât be stubborn-â
You huffed as you put it on, âthanksâŠâ
âDonât mention it,â you leaned back too, the back of your neck close to his arm, almost touching but quite. âDid you bring my camera?â you nodded, but he didn't answer back.Â
You couldnât stand the distance between you, a thick jelly of silence that was anything but peaceful. You dreaded going home, you dreaded having to face that your best friend, the boy you so dearly loved was upset with you.
Especially over something so petty. What did he care that you had a job? Your own life? Something to do that wasnât shared with him? It was rather selfish of him, wasnât it? You could almost hear your father spew that sentence from the darkest pits of your mind.Â
You stared at the small bag in Siriusâs hand. You didnât know why you hadnât taken notice of it before. He clutched the small velvet bag tightly. Did it have an extension charm? You wondered if it was his things then, had he carried that to the funeral? You thought you wouldâve noticed. Had he been planning on staying at Jamesâs? Had he cleared his things at some point without you noticing?Â
You rubbed circles into the palm of your hand and chewed at your lip worryingly.Â
If your father knew heâd call you stupid. Stupid for not looking for an apartment to move out, stupid for not being the first to leave, irresponsible, too trusting, so stupid.
You decided you maybe didnât want to know if he was indeed planning to leave.Â
âHey-â he shifted uncomfortably âdo you think we can talk about... you know, everythingâ
âSirius I donât know if it's the time-â You refused to even take a peek at him, even though you knew he was staring right at you now.Â
âWell, Merlin knows how much longer weâre going to be here-â he was right, you had all been here for ages waiting for the baby to come âso yeah it might be the time,âÂ
You sighed, finally turning to look at him. His stupid shiny grey eyes, and his stupid porcelain skin. His stupid stupid frowning lip. Heâd deny he was sporting one if you called him out on it.Â
He had always been a pouty one.
You were mad. At least you wanted to be, but when you looked at him, in all his disheveled glory, the hair he had run his hand through a thousand times, the white button-up with the top buttons undone and that had been unconsciously untucked from his slacks. You just couldnât be genuinely mad.
So you softened, finally moving to face him. Your knee knocked against his, his warmth transferring from his leg onto your skin.
âIâm sorry, for being so petty earlier- it was unfair and-â Sirius sighed, staring at your hand on your lap. His fingers twitched with the need to hold yours, to feel your no doubt freezing fingers between his warm ones.
He thought of your first week of living together again.
He grabbed your hand. You stared at the bag in his other hand again.
Like if you stared at it hard enough it would tell you its contents. But your thoughts drifted as your soft fingers were enveloped in his. Yet, you didnât say anything, you didnât dare. You squeezed his hand and he finally looked up, back from whatever thought he had briefly gotten lost in.Â
âIâm really sorry about the past few weeks-â
âIâm sorry too,â
âI just wish you could trust me enough to let me take care of you- thereâs no one else in the world Iâd rather spend my days withâŠâ You swallowed thickly as he spoke âI love you-â
âMy babyâs here!â James burst through a door down the hallway, cheering at the top of his lungs without caring about the nurse shushing him. âHeâs here and heâs beautiful come on you lot- come on!â
Sirius quickly scrambled to his feet, the other two boys following in the chaos of unsticking themselves from their respective sofas. You tried to ignore it, the sting in your heart. You loved him too of course. But did he love you the way you loved him?Â
There simply wasn't any time for that right now.
Sirius didnât let go of your hand; he simply pulled, pulled until you came up with him. His hand grabbed tightly onto yours and as you ran down the hall, straight for the door to Lilyâs room.Â
He never once let go of you.
The room was lowly lit, and Lily looked exhausted, but a smile graced her features nonetheless. Sirius tossed the small velvet bag to James with his free hand. The worry of it left your head as quickly as it had come.
Sirius dragged you by your hand all the way up to the bed, his face turning in wonder as he looked at the small baby in Lilyâs arms.Â
âHeâs so smallâ Peter called out from the foot of the bed,
âHeâs so bloody pink-â Sirius glanced at Jamesâs darker skin, a beaming smile nevertheless decorating his face. âDo you reckon heâll stay like that? Or did he get the redheadâs genes?â
âOi is that the first thing you have to say about your godson?â James couldn't help but laugh
âMy godson?â Sirius stared blankly at James, briefly flickering between Lilyâs equally beaming smile and the babyâs little pink face.
âI meant to ask but-â James smiled sheepishly as Lily glared,Â
âMerlin heâs my godsonâ
âDo you want to hold him?â Lily whispered as Siriusâs face broke into a smile as well,Â
âOf course, I want to hold my bloody godson Evans- heâs my godsonâ
Remus chuckled as he patted James on the back. You couldnât help but wrap your hand around the camera that hung from your wrist.
 You snapped a picture.Â
You knew what Sirius would write on the back of it later.
My godson. July 31, 1980
Just simple, and small, in his fancy, loopy cursive and black ink. But monumental in itself. He had done it. He had a family, he had always had one but now he was properly part of it. He was not just a stray taken in, but he now had a part in it. Heâd love that baby until his body gave out.Â
He knew it, you knew it, James and Lily knew it. From the second he was born, this baby would be the most loved baby on the planet.Â
âI canât believe heâs mine-â
âYou donât get to take him home mateâ
âHush Prongs- Iâm going to be his favorite I know itâ Sirius smiled, a playful smirk exchanged between friends. James couldnât help but quip back
âRight after Uncle Moony-âÂ
âAh thatâs for sure,â Remus laughedÂ
âI meant his favorite parent but I reckon Wormtail will be the preferred uncle, with all the candy pouring from his pockets the kid is gonna love him no doubt-â You all couldnât help but laugh-
âDo you want to hold him too?â Lily asked, her gaze shifting onto your face. âI reckon the godmother also deserves to hold baby Harry-â
âAre you serious?Â
âObviously-âÂ
âLily are you being serious-â
âYes! Black hand her the baby- god-â Sirius chuckled as he passed the small bundle into your arms, placing the camera at the foot of the bed. He was heavier than you expected, and the tears gathered in your eyes as you looked at his little face. Harry was small and definitely pink. He was a quiet little thing, undisturbed by the exchange of hands he was going through. Sirius leaned his chin on top of your shoulder, his cheek borderline pressed against yours.Â
âIsnât he the ugliest most precious thing youâve ever seen?â
âOi!â
âHeâs so ugly it's cute-â His words tickled your ear
âI donât think babies are supposed to be all that cute straight after birth Sirius-â
âI know love,â
âAlright, picture time idiots-â Remus said, leaning on his cane as he grabbed the camera with his free hand. James sitting on the side of Lilyâs bed as you and Sirius also approached, baby Harry still in your arms.
âI look like shit-â You huffed as you sat on the bed with Lily
âI do tooâ
âYeah, but you have a reason to Lilsâ Lily laughed. Siriusâs hand never left your back.Â
âWell- he wonât remember anyway-â
âThe picture will-â
âSay godparents!â Sirius had basically wrapped himself to your side, his face pressed against yours, his arm around your waist as he leaned down for the picture.
The flash made your eyes sting, a wide smile on your face.Â
It was fitting, the disheveled state of the lot of you, even in the picture the nurse would take for you all later. A family sewed together like a mismatched quilt.Â
Sirius smiled all night.
âSeriously though why is he so pink? Is this some sort of condition? Bloody baby doesnât look anything like Prongs-â
â-Yetâ James beamed.
My family, July 31, 1980

Leather & Lace
Pairing: Wanda Maximoff x Fem!Reader
Word Count: 4,012
Warnings: Age Difference, Breeding, Degradation, Jealousy, Mommy Kink, Nursing, Pervy!Stepmom!Wanda, Possessive Behavior, Praise Kink, Slight fluff, Somnophilia, Strap-Ons, Vaginal Fingering | 18+ Minors DNI
Summary: After a split-second decision, Wanda finally gets what she wants from her lovely little stepdaughter.
Eyes remained emotionless as a front to the anger that lay beneath them. Watching intently, they studied the somber scene, narrowing as they watched a hand lower to a spot they had previously claimed as their own â of course not officially, but you could only dream.
You hadnât spoken a word during the entirety of the morning. Glaring at your father was second nature at best as you hid behind the excuse of him being away for too long and never having time for you. Adulthood carried on many things, one of them being a disdain for being around him. The same couldnât be said for your stepmother though.
Wanda laughed as the man whispered something in her ear, biting down on her bottom lip â it was a move you found to be adorable each time you feasted your eyes upon it. She was finishing off the dishes, breakfast already having been served in earlier hours. The perfect housewife was to keep you all fed, to be a submissive entity for your father to walk all over.
âWe were thinking about going to the park today. Wanda wants to take the twins there,â your father piped up when turning to you. A set of twin brothers from Wandaâs previous marriage were the only ones to keep to sane as you watched the relationship between your dad and stepmom develop further for years. âWanna come?â
âWhatever,â came your huff. The harsh gaze Wanda threw at you made you squirm, but your eyes faltered and ignored it out of fear.
âCome on, donât be like that. We just want to have some family time-â
âNot my family,â you repeated as you had many times through the years. âIâm not a kid. I donât need mommy,â you turned to Wanda staring daggers, âto take care of me. The only reason I havenât moved out is because Iâm waiting to finish college. Then Iâm getting the fuck out of this shit town.â
âY/N, donât you dare talk like that,â your father warned.
âOr what? Youâre not even around enough to give a shit about whether I move or not. Itâs always work, work, and wo-â as you rambled on about his absence since his divorce from your mother, his phone rang. Not even a Saturday, the boys with their father for the weekend, could be spent in peace with his own family. âSpeak of the devil. Are you gonna answer that?â
Without a word, your father excused himself. During the early years of having moved with him, you surely blamed him for the lack of parenting he carried out. Youâd move with your mother if she wasnât halfway across the world teaching English as a second language in various countries, living her life to the fullest as she ignored her motherly duties. All through high school you had been alone. Now in college, the one person you didnât know you could count on was the surrogate caregiver who pranced to your side.
âDarling, thatâs no way of speaking to your dad,â Wanda said in a low voice, tender as fury rose from the depths of her words. âYou should apologize. Can you do that for me, sweetheart?â
âIâm not doing jack-shit for you. Youâre not my mom, you bitch.â
Surely the tone was harsher than you meant it to be, especially when the woman towered over you in the kitchen, you sitting on the stool by the island gulping down a know of fear. She tilted her head and suddenly all the years of anger, hatred, and surprising lust you felt for her vanished, let alone for the last one of course. With dark viridescent eyes dripping with need, she dropped her gaze to your lips.
Neither of you were fazed when your father ran to get an overnight bag ready. His job called for spontaneous trips across the world much like your mother, seeking out investment opportunities for this technology company, and yet most of the time you deduced he was simply using it as an excuse to fuck his secretary â same as he had done with your mother before marrying Wanda.
While he was adding the finishing touches to his bag, distracted as ever, Wanda grabbed your arm. She didnât hesitate to use undying strength when pulling you away, the heels of her flats clicking against the hardwood floor when you made your way upstairs. Regardless of how much you attempted to twist away, she still held you in place.
âStupid girl,â she growled. âItâs time we have a little chat about those icky moods of yours.â
You never expected to find yourself thrown over your bed, the woman locking the door as quick as she could. Many times sheâd be the one to crack it open and watch as you undressed, a hand shoved between her legs as she hummed at herself. Not that you knew, but she was devoted to making you hers.
âYouâve been in a terrible mood all week, I get it, but donât you ever dare speak to me like that,â was the first thing Wanda yelped as she towered over you, you sitting by the edge of the bed while she stood proudly. âYou need to learn to behave.
âOh shut up.â
To say her fury escalated at that would be an understatement.
âWhatâs gotten into you?â She frowned at you, crowing her eyes before stalking forth. As soon as Wanda tilted her head once again, a trademark move of hers, you knew you were done for. She explored your features, eventually averting her gaze down between your legs that you were rubbing against one another. âOh I see.â A smile spread across her face as she softened up. âDoes it maybe have anything to do with this?â
Eyes widened as Wanda, who was well pressed against you, heavy hot breaths falling on your face, cupped your clothed sex. She roughly pressed her fingers against you until she rubbed you, giving you pleasure even with the layers you wore. The hum she let out was all-knowing. Leave it to her to solve a mystery that to you ages to come up with an answer for.
âWanda what are you-â
âShhh be quiet, baby. You wouldnât want your dad to find out, right? Donât you want to be a good girl for mommy?â She raised her eyebrows, deep green eyes crawling into your soul and pulling out the submissiveness that lay beneath, and you couldnât help but nod immediately. âGood. Now let me make it better. Your little pussy is all sticky and needy huh? I bet you get all hot and bothered when you see mommy. Tell me, sweetheart, have you touched yourself before? Has my pretty girl made herself cum at the thought of her mommy? I know you have, Iâve seen it. Those fingers look so cute inside your cunt.â She leaned in dangerously close. âMaybe I can show you some of the pictures Iâve taken of you like that.â
âSometimes,â you admitted to her question, although in your hazy mind you couldnât tell which one. Closing your eyes, you gripped the bed sheets while she rubbed your clothed cunt lazily.
âYeah? Well, you have to remember that this is all mine. Mommy owns this pretty pussy of yours. Whenever you want to play with my property, you have to ask for permission.â Wanda sighed with relief as she allowed herself to bask in the wet noises your throbbing pussy made while she touched it. Even with your pajama pants on, she could tell you were oozing with juices. âYou have no idea how long mommyâs been waiting for this. Iâm glad my beautiful princess seems to like it.â
You didnât fight back as she began tugging off your clothes until you were fully naked, her own being thrown over the floor only moments later. Being pushed back, you allowed your head to hit the mountain of pillows, the chill of the Fall coming through small gaps in your window causing you to shiver.
Seeing Wanda in her nude gloriousness made you drool. Perfection was her name. Her breasts stood perkily waiting to be played with, a toned stomach, slightly full with beautiful rolls, sitting there adorably crafted just for your enjoyment. There were stretch marks along her thighs, chest, and tummy which you urged yourself to kiss, only she hovered above you before you could so much as move.
Lips pressed against your own languidly. Numerous times you fantasized about what it would be like to kiss her, to have her naked frame brushing against your own, hard nipples on your skin, as your mouths danced to a steady rhythm.
âTouch me, please. Just fuck me or somethingâŠâ you murmured as Wanda dropped a chaste kiss on your mouth. âDo it now. Fuck,â you grabbed her hand and let it fall on your pussy, humping it as you did with your pillows. âThatâs good. Oh Wanda that feels so fucking amazing.â
âHow pathetic,â she noted with raised eyebrows. Rather than keep touching you as you wished, Wanda slapped you harshly, brushing against your clit slightly and making you scream. âI said to stay quiet. Are you too stupid to understand? Maybe youâre just a mindless little slut for mommy. I bet thereâs not a thought behind those pretty eyes of yours, huh?â
While you wished to relinquish some power, you quickly realized Wanda wouldnât let you have any of it. After years of stressfully marrying your father, all she wished was to turn the tables, to have a submissive pet to use as a means to relieve all her stress. Watching you from afar, peeking through your door or even taking lewd pictures of you without your knowledge only enticed her madness; especially when she rummaged through your underwear drawer and stole a few pieces to wear while getting herself off at the sight of such images. Her craving for you drove her to the depths of desperation. Youâd have to do as she said whether you liked it or not.
Fingers teased your entrance, a mocking laughter coming from Wanda as you squirmed beneath her. Neither of you noticed nor cared about the words of goodbye your father threw into the ghost house, the front door closing as you had a space just for yourselves. A weekend entirely devoted to her destroying you and claiming you as her own â how fun.
âI really should punish you for having such a dirty mouth. Cute princesses like you shouldnât be saying those words, or making their mommies sad at that,â Wanda explained as she placed a kiss along your jaw, fingers making quick work to sloppily thumb at your clit. Folds were then parted, her hand coated with your slickness. When you sobbed at her words, she chuckled. âOh but youâre just a little puppy, arenât you? My lovebug doesnât know any better. Thatâs okay. Iâll let it slide just this one time, but if you behave like a stupid whore again then I wonât hesitate to punish you.â She smacked her hand against your aching cunt. âAm I clear?â
âYes,â you breathed out, arms wrapped around her shoulders as you pulled Wanda close.
âYes what?â
Crying, clinging to her for dear life, you gave in. âYes, mommy.â
âGood girl.â In all the years you had known her, never did you feel so many tremors running down your body in the presence of Wanda. âNow lay back and let mommy play with you, toy. Let me see how many fingers I can fill your cute pussy with.â
Heat radiated from her body as she began easing her fingers in your tight hole. For a moment she closed her eyes and thought back to the times she had seen you in compromising positions on top of a girl she knew was a friend from college, touching herself while imagining . Kate was never liked by your stepmother, and seeing as she possessively swiftly thrust a pair of digits inside grunting âmineâ beneath her breath, it was clear why.
âSo wet and so fucking warm for me. Oh baby you feel divine,â Wanda moaned as she pressed her thumb against your clit, the two fingers inside your sticky, aching pussy being pushed deep until her knuckles brushed upon you. âMy little baby was just so fussy. Canât think straight without mommyâs help? Now, next time your princess parts get icky like this, you tell me about it. No need to be a bad girl. Just tell mommy and sheâll make it all better.â
âYes, mommy,â you whined. âI wanna cum.â
âAlready? Oh no little one Iâve barely touched you! You can go a bit longer for mommy, right? I know you can,â she announced. The way her tits brushed with yours, nipples erect and hypnotizing enough made you want to suck harshly on them. With her newly found position as her mommy, youâd surely ask for that. âGood baby bears only cum when mama bear says so, and I know my girl is really good.â
While making out with her, Wanda nipped oh so softly on your lower lip to silently ask for permission that you gave her. Wetness coated your mouth as she swirled her tongue inside, exploring the area while devouring your own tongue, making all that was yours her own. All she desired was to own you, and without much effort she got exactly what.
âYouâre such a little whore, you know that, right? Iâve seen the way you touch yourself. Do you think about me when you stretch your pussy out with two fingers, sweetheart, or is it your friend that you imagine? You donât need her. Mommy will teach you how to be good, and I promise I will always take care of my pretty angel. I donât think she can do that, can she?â Wandaâs jealousy was rampant, but had always remained silent and simply waited for the time to take her prey as the predator she was. âHmm and youâre so tiny. Such a delicate doll. Itâs so cute how much of you I own already.â
By no means were her movements tender. She had waited long months to have you, always coming second to the disdain you had for humanity let alone for Kate. The poor thing was nothing but a friend you had fun with at times, but Wanda wasnât about to let you whore yourself off to someone else when she was to care for you. Daily inspections would be a must to ensure her little one was hers.
âSo full,â you whispered with your heart on the line for her. All Wanda did was curl her fingers up, making you scream with her mouth hovering above your own. âIâm so full with you, mommy.â
Your velvety walls clamped down harshly against her causing Wanda to grunt. âHmm time for my little puppy to cum. Be good and show me what I want. Show me who your rightful owner is.â
When you finally did come undone, Wanda was there kissing your pleasurable screams away, still deep in your pussy fucking your through your orgasm, not letting you catch your breath as she made you hers.
ïœĄââŒâ
âââââââââââââ
âŒâïœĄ
During certain nights Wanda found her desperation growing by the second. She didnât have trouble slipping away from her shared bed with her husband and instead waltzing into your room, a rather large toy nestled comfortably between her legs. Entering your room in the depths of darkness was nothing new, but with the hunger she felt, it would be the first time she took you without caring for what you had to say in response.
Earlier that day you had excused yourself to explore the world with friends. Weekends were the only times where you got to relax, to ignore all the workload being crammed through the week and instead find your inner peace. Since the weeks youâd been secretly seeing Wanda youâd spend extra time with her, the boys and your father away on certain occasions, so not having you around was a rather lonely task your stepmother had to get through by herself.
All Wanda had wished to do was wrap you up safely in her arms and nuzzle her face against your shoulder. After having cleaned on that day, the twins having gone away with your father on a camping trip, she entered your room. There she found a frame picture of you and her from when you finished your first year of college and were taken out to dinner as a means to celebrate. Once she undressed herself and eased down on a stuffed animal of yours, one she gave you as a birthday present the previous year, Wanda began getting herself off. Humping the plushie and teasing her clit with one hand, the other held the picture in place as she eyed your shining face, moaning your name as she came.
Now in the late hours of the night, sheâd finally get her toy to play with.
When she first shifted over the bed, you slurred slightly. The last thing sheâd want was to awaken you from your peaceful slumber knowing you never got enough sleep with all the stress that floated around you.
âClose your eyes, baby,â Wandaâs voice was low as she pulled at your pajama pants along with your underwear, her silk robe already pooling on the floor. âLet mommy touch you a bit. Iâve missed my little slut so much.â Laying you on your side, your cunt in full view, she ran a hand through your slick folds. âSo wet already. Oh I bet you spent all day fantasizing about being fucked like the whore you are. Now be a good girl and take my cock.â
While still asleep she grabbed her strap and slid it up and down your slit, making sure to pry your legs open a bit so she could swirl it across your clit. Once fully coated with your juices, jerking herself off a bit as though it was real, Wanda began inching inside, groaning as she basked in the sloshing sounds that came as she stretched out your tight hole.
Strong hands went to grip your hips in place. Wanda pressed her faced against the back of your neck, cheeks flushed and barely visible in the dimly lit room as she fucked you nice and slow. Even in your sleep you were responsive, little noises coming from your parted lips. The deeper she moved her cock in your pussy, the more you stirred.
âMommy?â You groggily asked, eyes fluttering open slightly. âWhatâs going on? I feel really weird.â
âItâs okay, princess. Mommy just missed you. Wonât you let me touch you?â Although exhausted, you nodded. âGood girl. I even brought the special toy. You can have all of mommyâs treat. Do you want it now, baby?â
Hugging you from behind, Wanda pumped her cock in and out of your puffy cunt, a hand sneaking between your legs to stimulate your clit. She had to remind you to be quiet, that only good girls would get rewards. The last thing she wished was to alert your father of the rather taboo relationship you held, especially knowing it would come to an end.
For a few moments your mommy allowed herself to enjoy the feeling of your pussy. She desperately wished to truly understand how tight you were as your walls held her faux cock, the toy sliding past your folds as you hungrily took it all. Neither of you minded the mess that formed on your sheets, Wanda being far too blissed out as she desired to take everything from you â your sanity, your freedom, and your love would be all hers.
âWhatever my baby wants she gets,â she husked out.
Wanda pulled out her cock, leaving you empty and sobbing with exhaustion. Right as she was about to squeeze her drenched length, you grabbed her wrist, turning over so you could face her. She left you with droopy eyes and drool falling down your chin.
âMommy, inside please,â you begged. Grinding yourself down against her bulbous dildo, you threw your head back. The way in which you clung to her, hands on her shoulders with eyes drifting down to her uncovered tits made her pity for you grew. âPlease, I need it.â
âOh but honey I donât want to get my fleshlight all dirty.â Wanda nuzzled her face against your own, her flushed cheeks brushing yours. âMaybe if you beg a littleâŠâ
âPlease mommy! I promise to be such a good girl, a whore, and let you use me whenever you want to. I need you to stuff me. I can't stop thinking about you inside me filling my pussy up with your treat. You can use me even when I say I donât want to. Please, just cum inside me. I need it so bad.â
Wanda was more than content with your response. She cupped your face with a hand, the other guiding her strap-on back inside your pussy. âHmm such a good slut. So desperate to have her cunt pumped full with my cum. Maybe I can even give you a baby. Would you like that, sweetie? For mommy to stuff you so full that you have my pups? Oh how cute youâd look.â
The redhead didnât waste any time squeezing her cock halfway inside you until white sticky drops began squirting in your pussy. Foreheads remained together, your lips tenderly touching down upon hers, kissing mommy innocently, as she filled you up. With cum dripping down your inner thighs, Wanda made sure to fuck all of the seed back into you.
âMommyâs fleshlight,â Wanda breathed out as she held you in place, hips moving and turning your bodies into one. âAll mine. No one can have this pussy, baby. Only I can stuff you with pretty pups. Never forget that.â
âIâm full,â you cried. Not only did you have your cunt all pumped with cum, but also Wandaâs thick cock stretching you out.
âI know baby, mommy knows.â Wanda kissed your worries away, eyelids feeling heavy as she shared her love with you. She pulled down your head so youâd press up against her chest, humming calmly. âYou can use your mouth if itâll make it better, darling. Latch on. Mama is here to help you get some more sleep, okay?â
Nodding, you did as you were told. You had yet to reach your climax, so close yet too tired to beg for more. Wrapping your lips around one of her erect nipples, you latched on quickly. Many times you spend laying on top of Wanda, your hazy mind drifting you into Sandmanâs realm, as she helped you relax against her. It was one of the many ways she coaxed your stress from school away.
While you began falling asleep once again, mouth suckling on Wandaâs breast, the older woman thrust her hips. She spent the rest of the night using her fleshlight â your aching cunt â before removing the strap from her waist and riding one of your thighs. Holding you close to her chest, mouth agape over skin, Wanda moaned whenever her clit brushed against you. She was practically dripping â only a few minutes passed up until she came undone after having brought you orgasm after orgasm.
To your dismay she was gone by the time you woke up in the morning. That Sunday was spent happily dancing around each other, Wandaâs hand brushing against your ass from time to time before she pressed you against the kitchen counter from behind when no one was looking â it was the perfect opportunity to grope your tits then. Each little moment the two of you got alone, you were sure to make the most of it. And of course when you showered, your stepmother was there peeking through the curtain with a hand between your legs â at least until you invited her inside, through the week rewarding her with various texts with lewd pictures of you sheâd treasure forever.

summary spending time at drew's mom's house and drew being the best dad in the world.
warning(s) a lot of baby fever drew (youâve been warned)
You awoke at eight in the morning to your six month son, Caleb, babbling on Drew's chest. Drew's enormous hands grip Caleb's small hands to prevent him from falling. Their brief communicate made you grin before you turned over.Â
Seeing Drew become a dad is one of the most beautiful and monumental things to experience with your own eyes. Drew is incredibly careful and loving with Caleb. He is meant to be a dad.
"Do you see mommy?" Caleb's gaze is fixed on you, a toothless smile growing in his face, "Can you say good morning?" Drew questions Caleb, as if he understands what he is saying.Â
Caleb raises his arms in response, making you quietly chuckle, "Good morning, my handsome little guy!"
"What about me?" Drew mumbles, pretending to be butt hurtâŻwhat a drama queen.
"Oh and good morning my handsome hunka of a man" you try holding in your laughter but you let it out. Drew looks at you with his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets.
Never heard you say that before. He thinks to himself.
"What time did you two wake up?" you ask Drew, scooping Caleb to nurse him before he gets fussy. "Thirty minutes ago," he responds, seeing you cradle Caleb in your arms and helping you pull his shirt to nurse him.
Today is going to be a great day. Drew and you will be heading out to Drew's mom house. She wanted everyone to come over to spend some quality family time. Plus, it's been awhile since you've seen Jodie and family with Drew filming and such.
Arriving to the house, you carried Caleb's diaper bag on your shoulder, and Drew held Caleb in his carseatâŻsleeping peacefully away. "Do you think he'll wake up when the door opens?" you ask Drew, gesturing to Caleb.
Drew shrugs his shoulders, "I say itâs fifty fifty with him," he says honestly.
When the front door opens, Jodie is there, beaming and beaming with excitement. She stepped aside, motioned for you guys  to enter with her right hand, and then embraced you warmly.
With her hands on her knees, she leans slightly down and admires Caleb. "It's good to see you both," she squeals, "and seeing my handsome grandson who's sleeping."
Everyone's faces brightened up when they saw you enter the living room. You hugged everyone while Drew was on the other side of the living room.
Drew placed the carseat on the floor, kneeled down, and pulled up the handle and cover, revealing Caleb stirring in his seat. Drew let Caleb to sleep till he awoke.
"How was the drive getting here?" Brooke questioned, leaning against the kitchen counter and sipping her wine.
"Not too bad," Drew responds, "we were stopped in minor traffic."
Caleb is whimpering faintly in the living room, and you notice him wiping his tired eyes. "My sweet boy," you coo as you unbuckle him. "Mama's got you," you shh.
When you go into the kitchen with Caleb putting his head on your chest, looking around, and covering his face when everyone says "hi."
"Why are you being shy bub?" You chuckle lightly before kissing his templeâCaleb places his left hand on your chest, showing his face againâlaughter fills the kitchen when he grins randomly.
ââ
The house became increasingly active throughout the day. You and Jodie talked in the kitchen about Caleb's developmental milestones, such how he was learning to sit up on his own and babbled "da-da" the other day. Meanwhile, Drew and Caleb exchanged moments that made your heart throb from love.
Every got their fair share of being in Calebs presence. It's amazing knowing how loved he is by his loved ones. Basically, he was the life of the show today.
Jodie has a play mat with an arch filled with colorful, textural toys that he can hold and pull. Drew lay on his stomach near Caleb, holding up a brightly colored toy to get his son's attention. "C'mon, buddy. "You can do it," he encouraged softly.
Brooke sits on the edge of the couch, filming the memorable moment. Everyone focused their attention on the two boys on the floor. Jodie and you were wondering what made everyone stop talking in the kitchen.
Caleb gave out a determined grunt, his tiny legs flailing as he attempted to get closer to the toy. Drew celebrated as if Caleb had just scored a touchdown. "That's my boy!"
ââ
Everyone was seated at the dinner table finishing their food. Caleb took a nap on the couchâit was his nap time and secured without falling off the edge. Drew was already finished with his plate and spent time with Caleb.
Drew sank onto the recliner chair, Caleb nestling in his arms. Caleb was rambling incoherently, his little fingers tracing Drew's facial features.Â
"You're telling me all your secrets, huh?" Drew muttered, his voice low and soft. Caleb reacted with a gurgling that sounded disturbingly like laughter, and Drew's entire face brightened up.
Drew's twin.
There are specific things he does that prove he is Drew's son. Caleb was seated in his high chair last week, tasting new foods for the first time. Drew and you were sitting in front, feeding him. Caleb tries the food while squinting and leaning back with wide eyes, similar to Drew's behaviorâŻhe must've thought you did something.
Caleb was lying on Brooke's chest, gripping her pointer finger, and watching the football game on TV as the night came to an end. He made plenty of sounds whenever a tackle or touchdown happened.
You checked the time on your phone, it was getting late, and you guys needed to head back to the house soon. Drew started getting your belongings together while you started saying your goodbyes.
"It was so nice having you guys over," Jodie says, beaming with both delight and sadness as she watches you settle away. "Love is coming over Jodie," you say, smiling.
After getting home and settling in your pajamas, Drew and you gave Caleb a bathâŻhis favorite thing ever. Always kicking and splashing everywhere. Drew carried Caleb in his room nextdoor while you did your skincare.
"I wonder what they're doing" you mumbled to yourself as you washed your hands.
You lingered in the doorway, watching Drew hold Caleb close and sway gently. "Goodnight, buddy," he said softly, his lips caressing Caleb's temple. "You're my everything, you know that?"
You feel a tear fall down your face. The sight caused your throat to knot with emotion. Once again, Drew being such an amazing dad.
You walked into the room and wrapped your arms around Drew from behind. He glances up and places his left hand on your right arm, "Hey, beautiful."
"You're good dad, you know that?" You tell him honestly, burying your face in his neck, thinking how nice he smells.
"And you're good mom, you gave me our son as you carried him so much," he whispers carefully so he won't wake Caleb, "you went through so much, I should be the one complimenting you."
What did you do to deserve someone like him?

In Sickness And In Health
Genre: Romance, Fluff, Comfort
Pairing: Seonghwa x Reader (y/n)
Characters:Â Doctor!Reader, Boyfriend!Seonghwa
Summary:Â Seonghwa has always been known to be the mother of the group, the one that takes care of everyone. But what happens when he falls ill? Luckily, his girlfriend is a doctor and will nurse him back to the health, just like he would for everyone else.
Word count:Â 4.7K
Story warning(s): Mentions of needle used for medical purposes, medications, being sick.
"Seonghwa?" You called out softly when you entered your shared house, closing the door behind you, but was replied with silence. You dropped your duffel bag onto the counter to take out the IV drip kit, fluid bag and medication.
Earlier at work...
"Hey, Hongjoong. Sorry I missed your call. What's up?" You called your boyfriend's best friend once the patient queue was freed up and you had a small break.
"Sorry to bother you, (y/n). I know you're working... Hwa's probably gonna kill me for telling you this but he's sick."
"Hwa's sick...? What do you mean?" Your eyes widened.
"Yeah, he knows you're on night shift and you know him, he never likes to have people take care of him... But he sounded quite bad over the phone and he didn't even let us to over to check on him..."
"Mhmm, I know exactly what you're talking about. Thanks for letting me know, Hongjoong. I'll go take care of him." You said.
"Let me know if you need anything."
"Thanks, I'll update you." You hummed and hung up with the captain before returning back to work.
So that's why, before you left work, you grabbed an IV drip set and all the necessary medications from the pharmacy that you may need to nurse Seonghwa back to health. Being a doctor has it's perks in that sense. And you were so worried about Seonghwa's condition that you ended up leaving your shift early.
"Seonghwa?" You poked your head into your shared room and was surprised the find the bed empty. You frowned, where did your sick boyfriend disappear to?
"Did he go out...?" You walked to your office and it was empty too. Then you checked the guest room.
"Oh, there you are." You sighed in relief.
On the bed of the guest room, there was a shivering lump under the blankets. You approached quietly and pulled back the covers, not wanting to surprise him too much.
"Seonghwa..." Your heart broke seeing Seonghwa so sick. He was shivering so much, lips quivering and cold sweat on his forehead.
"(y/n)?!" Seonghwa opened his eyes and was shocked to see you standing there.
"W-What are you doing home early? Did something happen?" He blinked, as if he was worried you were a hallucination caused by his fever. You could tell he was worrying about you.
"Hwa, stop worrying about me right now. I came home because I heard you were sick!" You frowned. Seonghwa cursed Hongjoong's name under his breath, knowing that only his best friend would rat him out to you like that.
"Come, let's get you back to bed. Why are you sleeping in the guest room?" You asked, pulling the blanket away to help him.
"Because I didn't want to spread my germs on our shared bed and I've been cold sweating. I'm so gross. You can't afford to get sick, love." Seonghwa quivered.
"Ah, Seonghwa... You know I don't care about that. We're getting you back to our bed. Come on." You helped him up.
"You should wear a mask." He tried to cough away from you.
"Park Seonghwa. Let me take care of you, okay? Stop worrying, please." You begged. He looked so sick and he was still fretting over you, it caused an ache in your chest.
"Okay, okay." He noticed your desperate tone and slipped under the covers of your shared bed, letting you tuck him in.
"Here." You put the thermometer in his mouth then went out to get the IV supplies from the counter.
"Luckily Nurse Jung let me borrow one of the portable IV stands to take home." You chuckled as you wheeled the IV stand in and fixed the height beside Seonghwa. Then you removed the thermometer from his mouth and checked. Seonghwa's fever was so high if you didn't have the IV, you would have taken him to the hospital.
"Oh, Hwa." You softened, feeling guilt bubble in your chest. But for now, you pushed it down. Seonghwa needed your focus and attention right now.
"Let me wash my hands first." You went to wash your hands and prepared the IV port to put into Seonghwa's arm.
"It's alright, baby. Slowly." Seonghwa said when he noticed your hands shaking slightly as you wiped his skin with an alcohol swab.
"Take a deep breath." You instructed and inserted the needle with precision. Seonghwa's face scrunched at the pinch, which made you feel worse.
"Sorry. It's over." You pouted.
"It's okay, love. Not your fault." He gave you a small smile. You grabbed a syringe to add the ampoule medications into the IV bag.
"Alright, there we go. It'll help with symptoms and your fever should subside quickly." You told him as you adjusted the dial flow once the drip was hooked up to the bag.
"Can you hand me another pillow?" He requested. You nodded and placed a bolster under his IV arm so it'll be comfortable.
"I'll be right back." You went to get rid of all the trash in the area and wash your hands. While you were outside, you prepared a cloth and a bucket of cool water so you could wipe him down. And you put some juice into a tumbler for him.
"I missed you." Seonghwa smiled as he watched you put the tumbler of juice and bucket on his nightstand. You started with wiping his face, feeling how warm his face was.
"Your hands are cold." He chuckled, placing his free hand over yours on his cheek.
"They're not. You're just warm." You smiled softly as you gently wiped his neck too. Then you rinsed the cloth and wiped his arms.
"Hwa, careful." You hissed when he lifted his IV arm, trying to make it easier for you to wipe his entire arm. He pouted at you and placed his arm back down.
"I need to wipe your legs too." You told him.
"But it'll be cold." He whined, quickly gripping the blanket since he knew you were going to yank it away.
"Just for a bit, Hwa. Come on, be good~" You cooed at him, which made him frown. He liked to coo at you like you were a baby and of course, you will take the opportunity to do the same to him now.
"Fine." He sulked and let you pull the blanket away. His first instinct was to him to curl his legs up. You raised his pajama pant to wipe his leg, rinsing the cloth before moving onto the next. But when you were done, you didn't let Seonghwa cover himself entirely, only covering his legs from his hips.
"But I'm cold, baby." He said, shivering.
"I know, Hwa. I'm sorry but if you bundle up like this, you'll warm your body up too much. The air conditioning will help with the fever." You kissed his forehead.
"I'm going to shower. You try to get some sleep first." You told him. He nodded, eyes already half closed.
'Hey, Hongjoong. Thank god you text me, his condition was terrible... But I put him on a drip, he should be fine. - (y/n)'
'That's good to hear. Hwa's lucky to have a doctor girlfriend or else I would have to drag his butt to the hospital and that'll be a whole nother thing. - Hongjoong'
'He's a horrible patient. But I'll keep you updated. - (y/n)'
With that, you went to take a quick shower to wash off the smell of antiseptic and germs from the hospital.
"Soup... Soup... Soup..." Since Seonghwa fell asleep, you decided to start a soup going, digging through the fridge for ingredients.
While the soup was boiling on the stove, you quietly moved the air purifier from the living room, into the bedroom. You also refilled his waterbottle with cold water. Then you went to change the sheets in the guest bedroom.
"Myers' cocktail with Peramivir administered at 3:08pm. Temperature taken 39.2 degrees." You wrote down the information on your phone, just in case.
"That's done." You turned the stove off for the soup and went to check on Seonghwa.
To avoid waking him up, you used your forehead thermometer instead of the one that needs to be in the mouth.
"38.3..." You whispered. Covering your mouth to yawn, you went to retrieve the bucket and filled it up with fresh water, along with the cloth from before.
Were you tired? Of course, you worked the graveyard shift at the hospital last night. But your priority now was Seonghwa.
"Mmm..." Seonghwa let out a soft whine in his sleep.
"Sorry, Hwa. I'll be quick." You whispered, rinsing and wringing the towel before gently wiping his face and neck. Then doing the same to wipe his arms.
"Baby?" He croaked out, slowly opening his eyes to see you standing over him to wipe down his arm.
"I'm sorry to disturb your sleep, I just wanted to try and bring your fever down faster. I've made soup for you when you feel like it. You can go back to sleep after this." You whispered with a soft smile. He nodded his head, a small smile coming onto his face as he watched you take care of him.
Seonghwa always liked taking care of people, whether it's his family, his members and of course, he LOVED taking care of his precious girlfriend. He always put others' needs before his own.
Until now, he is still the best person that takes care of Hongjoong when he's busy being the captain of the team.
"Actually, I'm a little hungry." Seonghwa admitted.
"Oh, okay! It's good that you have an appetite. I'll finish here and get you some food." You threw the cloth into the bucket and brought it out. Then you got some soup for him.
"Here." You placed the tray on the foldable table on the bed. Then you helped him sit up.
"No rice?" He gave you a sad face.
"You know you can't eat rice when you have a fever, Hwa. When your fever subsides, I'll make you rice porridge." You told him, going to open the window to let some fresh air come in.
"Sit with me, baby." He said. You hummed, pulling a chair to sit at his bed side to watch him eat.
Seeing Seonghwa eat so slowly, you figured his throat must be hurting him. It hurt to see your boyfriend like this. You were out the whole night, taking care of others when you couldn't even care for your loved on who was suffering alone at home.
"This is delicious, baby. Tha- Why are you crying?!" Seonghwa panicked when he turned his head to see tears streaming down your face. You didn't even realise that you were crying.
"I'm sorry." You looked down, shaking your head as you wiped your tears with the sleeve of your hoodie.
"My precious baby. There's nothing for you to be sorry for." He reached out to hold your hand since he couldn't reach your face.
"B-Because... What kind of doctor am I? I treat people for a living and I didn't even know you were sick! Hongjoong had to tell me and I find you in that condition. You always take care of me and I can't even-"
"Okay, okay. Breathe, my love. Breathe." Seonghwa calmed you down, moving his tray away to make some space for you.
"Come here, love." He patted his lap and you moved to sit with him, being extra careful of his drip.
"Ouh, my precious baby. My love." You hugged each other for the first time that day, Seonghwa coddling you and cooing at you like you were his baby.
"No, stop! I'm supposed to be taking care of you! Not you comforting me." You wailed, wiping your tears. Seonghwa kissed your temple, rubbing your back. Honestly, this was what Seonghwa wanted to feel better too. He missed you and just wanted to have you as close to him as possible.
"I've been waiting to hold you since you came back but I didn't want to get you sick. And I'm so gross and sweaty." Seonghwa chuckled.
"You won't... Even if you did, I don't care." You mumbled.
"No, you need to rest." It took everything in you to separate yourself from Seonghwa's embrace and placed the tray in front of him so he could continue eating.
"You take very good care of me. You're a great doctor and a great girlfriend, your patients are lucky to have you. I'm lucky to have you."
"You always take such good care of me and I couldn't even do the same." You slumped.
"Don't say that. We take good care of each other. You've just finished a night shift and yet, you've been running around to take care of me." He held your hand in his, rubbing the back with his thumb.
"Eat while I get you your medication, okay?" You stood up and went out of the room.
"Your drip is done so you can take these." You handed him a small dish with the medication on it. Before he ate the medication, you disconnected the drip from the needle port in his arm. Then you carefully removed the needle, placing a band aid over.
"Thanks, baby." Seonghwa smiled and ate the medication, chasing it with gulps of water. You gave a small smile in return and cleared up the area before washing your hands.
"Luckily I didn't throw away your sharps bin." He called out to you as you were throwing the used needle away.
"It's not even half full, I just keep it around for cases like this." You replied.
"Baby, I'm being a good patient and resting. You should also be a good baby and rest. Come on, I know you haven't taken a break since you came back and you worked graveyard." Seonghwa said.
"I will... Later..." You replied, taking the empty juice tumbler and placing it in the kitchen.
"Baby..." Seonghwa frowned in disapproval.
"I'm fine, Hwa. I promise." You squeezed his hand, taking the thermometer and taking his temperature. Finally, his temperature was now a low grade fever.
"Thank goodness I don't have to take you to the hospital now. But I'll continue to monitor your temperature." You informed, taking your phone to note down the temperature and medication log. Seonghwa curiously leaned closer to you to try and take a peek at what you were writing down.
"Wow, I'm like your patient. Just that I have you to myself and I don't need to share you with other patients." He grinned.
"You are my patient. Even though it's usually the nurse that does the charts, not me. And you never have to share me, you know I'll alwyas prioritise you and your health." You scoffed.
"I know. I just like hearing you say it." He grinned.
"Hmm, on second thought, I think the fever has made you even more delusional." You chuckled, placing your hand on his forehead.
"That's impossible. I have the best doctor in the world taking care of me." He grasped your hand to kiss the back of it. You smiled and pressed your cheek against his.
"Now come to bed." He whispered.
"I will. Just let me clean up the kitchen. You should sleep more." You replied. He hummed obediently and let you tuck him in.
"Come back soon." He smiled. You closed the window and quietly left the room to let him sleep. Although, you didn't just clean the kitchen. You knew Seonghwa was particular about cleanliness so you did his daily cleaning routine for him, knowing he couldn't do it today.
"Lint roller, vacuum, wet tissue mop then lint roller." You tried to remember his cleaning sequence and took the necessary equipment you needed to clean.
However, you didn't want to wake him so you didn't use the vacuum, instead you used the broom to sweep the floor.
"Ah, finally done." You fell back onto the couch with the lint roller in your hand.
"Baby...?" Seonghwa came out, wrapped in his blanket. He woke up to find his bedside empty and when he felt how cold the sheets were, he knew you didn't come to bed like you said he would.
"(y/n)-" Seonghwa paused when he saw you asleep on the couch, still gripping the lint roller in your hand.
"Sweet girl." He cooed and put his blanket aside before gently easing the lint roller out of your hand and putting it aside.
Looking around, Seonghwa knew that you must have done his usual daily cleaning routine for him. He smiled softly, brushing your hair away from your face, you knew him so well.
"Rest well, my love." He kissed your head and placed the blanket over your body instead.
Seonghwa went to the room and took his temperature, writing down the reading and timing on a post it, knowing that you would want to log it in later. He was still running a low grade fever and felt aches in his body but he felt 10 times better than he did this morning, all thanks to you.
"Hongjoong ah." Seonghwa made the phone call in the room, not wanting to disturb you.
"Okay, listen Seonghwa. Before you come at me all mad, you were so sick and didn't want any of us to help you. That's why I told (y/n), okay? So it's your fault."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. You so owe me." Seonghwa rolled his eyes, even though he knew Hongjoong couldn't see him.
"You have a doctor girlfriend to give you first class care. I don't owe you anything. But I'm guessing you're feeling better already?"
"I do, thanks to her. She's resting now, poor thing worked the whole night and came back to take care of me. She didn't even have time to sit down and catch a breather." Seonghwa sighed.
"You both take care of people before you take care of yourselves. See? That's why you're made for each other."
"Right..." Seonghwa scoffed.
"Anyway, do you two need anything from us? The others should be done with their schedule and I just left the studio. I can pick up whatever you need."
"You shouldn't be around the house for too long or you might get sick too. But if you could drop dinner off for us, it'll be a great help. I don't really want (y/n) to do anymore cooking or for her to be eating ramyeon." Seonghwa knew you too well.
"Sure. Send me what you want and I'll go pick it up, drop it off at yours."
"Thanks, Hongjoong ah." Seonghwa said and hung up. He texted over the food for Hongjoong to buy, knowing your likes and dislikes.
As much as Seonghwa wanted to snuggle with you, he had to hold himself back. Firstly, he didn't want to wake you. Secondly, he was still worried about getting you sick.
"Ah..." He winced and dramatically held his arm back as he stood before you.
"Once you recover, you can get all the cuddles from her." He took a deep breath and returned to the room.
And of course, he found his nintendo switch in the charger, you must have put it there, knowing he would be bored and want to play when he wakes up.
When you woke up, you sat up in shock. You didn't even know when you fell asleep. But the curtains to the living room were drawn and there was a blanket placed over you.
"Yeah, she's still sleeping... I want her to get as much rest as she can get since she worked graveyard... Thanks, Hongjoong ah. I'll see you." You heard hushed whispers from the bedroom and assumed it was Seonghwa speaking to Hongjoong over the phone, maybe updating him on Seonghwa's current condition.
"Oh, baby! You're awake." Seonghwa was heading back into the living room and spotted you standing there, half asleep and confused.
"Was that Hongjoong?" You asked.
"Mhmm, he picked up some dinner for us. I didn't want you cooking and I shouldn't be cooking for you when I'm sick." He said, placing the empty cups on the counter.
"Ah, I'm fine to cook, Seonghwa. And besides, there's still some leftover chicken soup for you." You yawned, shuffling to him.
"I know. But I also know you'll give all the leftover soup to me and make ramyeon for yourself." He stated.
"I..." Your cheeks heated up as he exposed you. Seonghwa chuckled, watching you stand there, still half asleep and a little lost, with the blanket wrapped around your body like a child.
"You should be resting... Let me do all the dishes..." You said to him.
"I feel better already, baby. I took my temperature down and even took the medications." He said, showing you the post it note with all the temperature readings, the medications he took and the timings of when he took them.
"Let me feel. Come here." You reached up to feel his cheeks and forehead in your hands.
"Your fever is gone. Let's hope it stays that way. But still, you're not fully recovered." You frowned slightly. You were relieved that his fever was finally gone.
"After this." He kissed your knuckles.
"Let me put this back." You bundled up the blanket and folded it properly, returning it to the bedroom.
"Gosh, I didn't even know when I fell asleep." You rubbed your cheeks and let out another yawn.
"Poor baby. You were probably so tired and running on adrenaline to take care of me. Once the food is delivered, we should eat and go back to bed." Seonghwa frowned sadly.
"Yeah, we should." You smiled softly.
"I bought some immunity juice thingy in the fridge. You should drink that. It's good for you." You pointed.
"It looks horrible. Tumeric, black pepper, orange, ginger, carrot, apple, cucumber... I think just reading this is making me feel more sick than I already am." Seonghwa took the bottle out, cringing at the colour and ingredients listed on it. You took the bottle from him and poured him a glass.
"It's good for you." You re-emphasised and held it out to him. Seonghwa sighed in defeat and grabbed the glass to drink it. He gulped the whole thing down, shuddering when he finished.
"Now, you. You're always around sick people, you should be drinking it too to build immunity." Seonghwa refilled the glass.
"But..." Your face fell.
"Be good, baby." Seonghwa shot you a pointed look, repeating your own words back to you.
"I take you being able to boss me around as a sign that you're feeling better." You raised an eyebrow with him but still drank the immunity juice. Seonghwa was right, the taste was vile.
"See? Horrible, right?" Seonghwa chuckled and engulfed you in a bear hug, rubbing your back while you nodded glumly.
"There, there." He comforted. Seonghwa's hugs felt like home, you nuzzled your cheek against his chest and closed your eyes. It doesn't matter how long you are away from him, you always miss his hugs and his warm embrace.
"My love, are you falling asleep on me?" He chuckled.
"Shhhhh..." You hushed him. Seonghwa sighed in defeat and stroked the back of your head. He guided you to the couch so he could tuck you under his arm.
"Don't sleep, Hongjoong's coming to delivery dinner soon. After that, you can sleep." He said.
"If you don't want me to sleep, stop being so comfy and cozy." You grumbled. Seonghwa laughed at your nonsense.
"Wait! You should be the one resting! Not me!" You shot up suddenly, making Seonghwa jump in shock. He didn't have time to protest as you pulled him up from the couch and brought him back to the room.
"There. Stay here until I get the food from Hongjoong." You pulled the blanket over his legs.
"My love-"
"Shh, rest." You placed the Nintendo switch console in his hands and exited the room to prepare his next round of medications, as well as fill up his water bottle for him.
"Hongjoong ah! Thanks again for doing this... No, he's not sleeping, you can see him if you want... That's right, you need to remain healthy as the last Matz standing... Don't make yourself sick taking care of the kids and not of yourself." Seonghwa heard you talking to Hongjoong, it was nice to hear you so comfortable with him.
The love of his life and his best friend.
"Mmm, I will. Take care and let me know if you need anything!" You bid Hongjoong goodbye and brought the food bags in.
"Stay there, Hwa! I'll plate everything up." You said just as Seonghwa was about to stand up from bed. You knew him too well to know what he would do.
"Do you have a camera in here?!" Seonghwa yelled back.
"What are you talking about?" You chuckled as you entered the room with a tray of food for him. You placed the tray on the bed for him.
"Where's your dinner? And don't tell me you will eat after me. I won't eat unless you eat with me." Just like you knew Seonghwa, he knew you very well too.
"Fine, I'll go get my food." Your shoulders slumped and you went to get your bowl of noodle soup.
A nice silence fell over the both of you as you ate, the both of you were rather quiet eaters. Just that usually, you and Seonghwa would put food on each other's spoons but with Seonghwa being sick, you both didn't want to risk cross-contamination.
"I'll go take a shower. I really want to get out of these clothes." Seonghwa said with an uncomfortable frown once dinner was done. You nodded and let him shower while you cleaned up.
"Don't go under the hot water for too long, Hwa! It might trigger your fever again." You knocked on the door.
"Yes, Dr (y/l/n)." He replied. You laid on your side of the bed, checking your phone for messages.
"I'm back." Seonghwa wrapped his arms around you from behind, pulling you flushed against his body. He was still slightly warm but the medication seemed to really help.
"Still feel ill?" You ran your hands through his hair.
"No, I'm a lot better but the body ache is still there." He smiled softly, grabbing your hand and kissing your fingertips.
"I've set an alarm for you to take your meds, so don't swear at me for waking you up later, okay?" You joked, knowing that Seonghwa would NEVER ever swear at you.
"You don't have to wake up, baby. I can wake up on my own to take the medication, just put it on my table." Seonghwa said.
"It's fine. I want to, it will make me feel better knowing your temperature and reaction to the medication." You insisted. He knew there was no persuading you otherwise so Seonghwa just nodded and pulled you to him. You both didn't care about getting you sick anymore, you just wanted to be as humanly near him as possible.
"Thank you for taking care of me, baby." He kissed your forehead.
"What's there to thank for? You're always taking care of me and making sure I'm at my best." You looked up at him.
"Yeah, but I like to take care of you. It's not a chore at all, it makes me feel useful knowing I can help you. And with your job, you always take care of patients. It's nice to be taken care sometimes."
"Seonghwa, you're always useful, no matter what. I've never saw you as useless." You said.
"I know... It's just a personal feeling." He shrugged.
"I could say the same for you. You're always taking care of the other members and especially Hongjoong. So you can take a break and let me take care of you." You giggled.
"We'll always be here to take care of each other. You know like they say... In sickness and in health." He stroked your cheek.
"Exactly." You smiled softly and closed your eyes to join him in dreamland.
