His boy's happiness

Soulmate AU part 9 Marcmarc

18.12. winter writing

To the whole AU

There was laughter that filled the hospitalities. The pressured that had almost suffocated the paddock just hours earlier was completly gone.

Pecco was somewhere yelling and laughing, singing and drinking with his team. By now, Bez had sneaked away to give his friend some privacy.

He spotted a few people as he headed down to his own team. He waved them. Stopped to have a quick chat. Wished them a good holiday.

The talked helped to distract himself. Yes, he was happy. More than happy and there was no reason not to think about his team and spent time with him.

Except for the fact that he really wanted to run down the grid and crush the Honda celebration.

He smiled to himself, trying to imagine the shocked looks of everyone. According to Marc not even his father knew about their relationship just yet. So the reactions if Bez somehow ended up on Marcs lap, kissing him, congratulating him on his Honda career would be quite entertaining.

The temptation was there...

But they had decided to keep it professionally. So running to the Honda garage or motorhome while every motogp channel in existence focused on them - especially Marc - seemed like a bad idea.

Even if he just wanted to go kiss and hug him.

Why couldn't he just sneak in the Honda garage, pull Marc in a dark corner and kiss him until he forgot his own name?

Of course he knew why. But the childish refusal to accept it remained.

The media was a problem.

And... Well...

One of the reasons - or the root of the reasons - was just waving at him.

"MARCO! CIAO!" Vale yelled grinning at him.

"HI!" he responded while walking towards him. When he arrived he felt his mentor hugging him tightly. Vale's arm still rested around his shoulder while they were talking to a mechanic.

It felt kind. Domestic. It felt same and warm. Like there was nothing that could actually hurt him. No crash. No media drama. Nothing.

He had his team. His friends. And family. And Vale definitely belong among them.

And maybe it was the alcohol that was still buzzing in his veins and the sudden feeling of safety, but he decided that he wouldn't hide.

Vale was family. And he wouldn't hide. Not himself. Not Marc. Not what made him so happy.

He didn't even really thought about it. Once he had made up his mind there was no going back anymore.

He waited until they were alone. They sat together in Bez rider room, when Marco decided that it was now or never. If he didn't speak up now, his courage would leave him.

"I found my soulmate"

There it was. Out in the open. Now there was no going back.

Vale's eyes immediately lit up. He smiled at him. It was a bright, happy grin. The younger Italian almost felt guilty that he was about to crash his hopes. But there was no other way.

"That's amazing!" his voice was excited. "Who are they? Tell me everything! Oh you could have brought them here, you know. I'd love to meet them"

"You Ehm... Already did. You know him and..." Suddenly it hit him what he was actually doing. He swallowed hard, praying this wouldn't go wrong. "I'm not sure you'll be so happy when I tell you"

His eyes went to the ground, avoiding eye contact. He wasn't ashamed of loving Marc. He never could be.

"Don't be ridiculous. I'm sure he is kind and nice. He is your soulmate after all." "The truth is... I've known since I was 16 and... And I know you hate him so I was scared to tell you"

Vale froze a little. He had assumed it was just his boy being shy to talk about love with him. Not actual concern about his reaction.

"We got along okay last year" Bez spoke quick, not really taking a breath in between, clearly needing to get it out of his system as fast as possible. So Vale just let him.

"-then this your he started to ignore me and I started to hate myself because of it but turns out he jistt thought I wasn't his Soulmate and wanted to move on because he already fell in love with me. And then I got a little depressed and he kissed me and I loved it"

So there had that suddenly change in him came from.

Vale had noticed the psychological changes. It had concerned him. He had tried to talk to Bez, but he hadn't got a word out. But then on Thursday he had came in the hospitality, laughing and humming a long to a song.

Last time he had done that was almost a year ago.

"But I hated it and then we figured it all out and now I'm scared shitless how you'll react because you're an important part of my life and I need you but my soulmate is Marc Marquez and you hate him but I just can't live without him anymore cause I love him too much and I can't hide that from you because then I'd hate myself again." he said in a very long breath.

Many words with a heavy meaning in a very short time.

Vale nodded, slowly trying to process it all. He run the words back in his head. But 4 stood out. Soulmate. Marc Marquez. Love.

But his pause didn't help calming Bez. Instead it made it worst. He twitched nervously in his seat. After a few seconds the worry overtook him and he had to fill the silence between them again, even if he didn't know with what.

"I'm sorry. I know you hate me now and-" Vales eyes flew open in shock. No. "Stop. No. Shut up, Marco." he quickly interrupted, his voice tense. "No. No, don't you dare finish this thought!"

He couldn't let that happen. He wouldn't let that happen. No more doubts. No more worries. No more self hate for Bez.

And then it hit him what Marco had actually just said. The source of his off behavior - that was it.

That was the reason why he had stopped laughing as loud as he used to. Why his bad jokes turned more fake until they almost disappeared. Why he was the first to train and the last to stop.

All the little hints that had worried Vale sick, were now adding up.

"Wait is that why you were riding like the devil and slipping back in your depression? You thought I'd end up hating you because of who your soulmate is?"

Bez shrugged. There as sadness and guilt in his eyes and Vale hated it. Was there guilt and sadness? He had his soulmate. The love of his life. That was good.

"Yeah... I mean... Am I not out of the academy?"

"OH Marco" he exclaimed and sat down next to him. Without a warning he grabbed him by the shoulders and pulled him closer, hugging him as much as he could. He hugged him as tight as he could. Every squeeze was a try to convince him that he wouldn't let him go. No matter what.

"Marco, I may not be your father but you will always be my son. You are one of my boys and nothing will ever change that." he said. He couldn't help but give the younger Italian a quick kiss on the forehead.

"Nothing and no one can make me go away. You're part of this. And you're staying and if that means that I have the play nice to Marquez, I will because this is about you..."

It wasn't even a question. He had seen Bez to close to the edge to care who bought him happiness. He just wanted to see him happy, relaxed and with a will to life. And if that meant that Marc would be around, then fucking hell, he was willing to give the Spaniard a key to their life to keep Bez.

"But I will play overprotective dad." he added with a laugh to ease the tension. It was a reassuring gesture, knowing it'd calm Bez more.

He laughed when he heard that. "Leave my boyfriend alone!" he tried to save his partner but Vale just shook his head, smiling brightly. "Nope, sorry. Let an old man have his fun. I'll give him a hard time. Just to see if he's a good fit for you. I did it with all of your partners"

"You didn't do it with Frankys soulmate" "Frankys soulmate is Migno! I'm not testing my boys." he decided and Marco smiled.

He leaned in for another hug which the older man gratefully accepted. But after a few seconds, Marco again got nervous.

"So Ehm... you're really... Not... Angry? Like not at all-?" Bez asked just to be reassured. Vale didn't mind.

"No, I am not angry and I am not at all against it." he sighed, knowing he had to explain it. After all he had hated Marc Marquez for years now and giving up too quickly.

"You see... Marco... Over the last months, you were quite and cold and you rode like you didn't care about your own life. It scared me." he explained softly.

"When you broke your collarbone on the ranch... And you juts laid there for a few second, no reaction, no movement, no screaming... I saw you... And I thought I lost you... I thought you were... It scared me so much I actually cried that evening."

He had never told that to anyone. It wasn't something they discussed. It was a silent agreement between the riders to never even mention the possibility of a fatal accident.

"And if Marc pulls you away from that, something none of us was capable of doing, then you're free to bring him as much as you want." he said with a smile. No fight was worth pushing he's boys away and letting even one of them be unhappy.

"I don't care. Okay? If you want to, he can be there at every ranch training, as long as you're happy and safe. The rest doesn't matter"

And now, Bez believed him.

After that they got drunk. Marco didn't hold back and at the end, it was Vale who brought the boy home. To his real home. A Spanish rider with dark curls and a soft heart.

The squad of all time has arrived on scene.

Being someone who read Under The Red Hood and came out with the firm belief that, for Jason, it's not about killing Joker, it's about Jason wanting proof Batman would choose him over the Joker (bc shelia chose the joker). Makes seeing any other media where it's all about just wanting the Joker dead is a teeny bit frustrating. to be honest

Jason could've killed the Joker himself, really, really easily. Jason kidnaps the Joker before the confrontation. I can't open my comic for a reference right now, but it felt like he had the Joker for quite a bit before the confrontation. He had him. He beat him up with a crowbar. He had every single opportunity to kill the Joker himself, but he didn't because that wasn't his goal. Make no mistake, he did plan for the Joker to be dead by the end of it, but do you see what im trying to say here

Edit: If I knew this post was gonna get 1000+ notes I would've tried to word it better or something, this was a rant I made on the way to the grocery store 😭

It's not about making Batman kill either. When Batman says he won't kill, Jason adjusts and goes, 'Let ME kill the Joker or kill me to stop me' instead. The test is all about Batman choosing him. The whole final confrontation is Jason's first death again. The parent, The Joker, and the explosives. It even ends with Jason unable to move as a bomb goes off right next to him again because the parent didn't choose Jason. And instead tried finding an option that'd benefit them and (consequencely) letting the Joker walk, again, lol, lmao <-in agony

Joe…… Why does God have to mess with him like this?! When he was sixteen years old, he stopped in front of the cinema and saw the trailer of this movie seven to eight times. The scene of the hero’s back gracefully falling into the water left him infatuated and deeply mesmerized. Yet this person was actually Joe, actually Joe! It was not Tong, not anyone else, but was Joe, Joe! Ironically, he treated Joe as Tong’s substitute. Who is the fucking substitute for who!? This step… he had been wrong from the beginning and had continued walking on this path till it is dark. Finally, it got to the point of no return, making him lose everything. Even his prayer for a chance to remedy was unobtainable. Joe had disappeared. He has a lot of things he wanted to tell him… a lot of things he wanted to do with him… and a long life ahead he wanted to share with him. But Joe had disappeared just like that. Because of his mistakes, he had step-by-step pushed Joe onto a path that separated them. He had hurt the person he loved most. Now everything has become retribution on himself. Ming is in so much pain that he wanted to die. He really wanted to disappear on the spot. Then maybe he and Joe could appear in the same place. He was starting to lose his balance. At this time, his rationale is already on the verge of collapse. This huge blow made him feel panic-stricken and tremendous grief at the same time
