indoor baking moments
âË.àŒ || soft valentines m.list || hongjoong || seonghwa || yunho || yeosang || san || mingi || wooyoung || jongho || âË.àŒ
to begin with, san would stay indoors as his way of spending time with you like; "there's more adventure here inside than the outside" or "you won't get lost here unlike outside gps are trusted but it's not enough."
you sigh defeatedly at your boyfriend who's looking at you with big eyes with the blanket wrap around his head and covering his entire body on the couch. his face was the only thing seen and it made him look cute underneath it.
you were dress up in your sundress ready for today's adventure but like any day, you found your boyfriend- bundle and secured- under his favorite blanket with a 'ïŒïżŁïž¶ïżŁ) ' look.
the look you knew what it means.
you place your hand on your hip, "sannie ..." he giggles, eyes disappearing but smile big so contagious; alluring you to give in and spend the day with san inside his apartment. your lips curled in a smile, "fine okay but you better set up my favorite game." san cheered, draping off his blanket to set up the gaming console on the tv.
you could never say no to your boyfriend, not when he's this adorable and besides making a memory with him at the aquarium or the museum are good ideas but thinking about it, san is right.
there's more adventure inside.
after removing your sundress and place yourself inside your favorite pajamas and his hoodie, you made your way back to the living room to see him back in his blanket with another blanket beside him on top is your controller.
you chuckle, wrapping the blanket around just like San and press start on your controller.
rounds of tekken, multiple matches of mario kart and numerous attempts of finishing assassin's creed. you watch as how San manage to finish rounds until you heard gurgling stomach noise, beside you. your head turn to San, at the same time, San turn his head towards you with a cresent eye awkward smile.
"i'm hungry." you shake your head smiling, walking towards the kitchen, "i know you have ingredients here so get your butt up and let's bake!"
San's eyes widen in excitement and sparkling as he stumbles himself out of his blanket. you grab all the utensils from the cupboard while San finds all the ingredients. after a while, you were stirring the batter for the cookies while San planned on making a homemade pizza, so he was busy kneading the dough on the flour covered counter.
as you place the cookies neatly on the over, when you spun on your heels; you were powdered in the face by a flour. a giggle-- that mischievous giggle.
you cough the remaining floor that got in your mouth, wiping your eyes; glaring at San, "Choi ... San"
"yes my dearest?" he replied, fluttering his eyelashes while hiding his hands behind his back. you groan, squinting your eyes at him, "come here!" you grab a handful of flour and chases after him. San yelp, sprinting around the counter; getting away from you.
the kitchen was filled with flour, footprints and several opened chocolate chips scattered on the counter. it was you chasing San around the kitchen but this time, San was the one chasing you.
"stop San! This is so unfair!" You yelled-laughing at San as you turned around; cornered. his hands were covered among your body part your hair is the least flour-covered.
"nothing's fair in life, dear!" you yelp as San engulf his arms around you, spinning you around to splash you the flour, you puffed the flour but a smile still on your lips.
when the world faded away, the only color bursting with life, was you. as San stood transfixed, there was nothing but you, filling his vision, warming his chest with a glow that had nothing to do with the setting sun by the small window of the kitchen.
his hand move to dust a few flour off of your cheeks and tucking a piece of hair behind your ear, "hey dear ..."
with the last pounce of laugh left your lips, you look at him, "yeah sannie?" San leaned closer, placing a quick gentle kiss, your heart fluttering as he pull away. you never got used to his kisses, so soft, sweet and addictive.
"do you know how much I love you?" you hummed pretending to think about it. san place both of his palms flat on your cheeks, squishing them together.
"say it ... say~ it~" you chuckle gripping his wrist as San keeps mushing your cheeks, "i wuve wou."
San pull his face closer, a glint of playfulness on his eyes, "what? I can't understand you?"
"i wuve wou!" San look deeply at you before pecking your puckered lips, "i love you too." You chuckle gripping his wrist then running them to his hands, holding on to them warmlyâpulling them slightly away to speak properly this time.
"i love you san." This time San kiss you longer. Your eyes fluttered close, as you breathe in his scentâ lips move in sync along with your heartbeat.
The small ding of the timer made you both pull away, giggling at one another. San rest his forehead on yours, "told you there's more adventure here inside."
you shrug, "well I guess its not bad."

wip wednesday!
i don't think anyone tagged me in this last week (but if you did then thank you). i also just really like dropping little snippets here each wednesday so here's a big one for the one, the only, eddie alden fic.
this fic has consumed me entirely and well i've got a surprise that goes with it but that's for a different time.
hopelessly devoted to you
Trailing to the kitchen with you hot on his heels, he rummaged in the take out drawer full of old menus that needed replacements eventually. Pages were stained, ripped, and crumpled from years of use. You snatched the only pizza place one out of his grasp, eyes flicking through the selections with a grin. Predictable. He could have ordered blindly for you if he'd have known your tastes were the same.
"Lemme guessâ"
"Pepperoniâ" you began.
"With sausage and jalapenos," he finished.
"Fuck off Eddie."
He smiled, confident enough to have your mind falter on anything except the man before you. How did he do that? Render you a bumbling fool who could barely put the correct words in order to form a complete sentence. One day you might have to ask if that was just his Eddie charm, or if it only worked on you in particular.
"I would. But it's my place kitten." Dialing the number he knew by heart, he left you to wander spots in the apartment that hadn't been on his grand tour.
A corner table held a photo of Eddie's mother, his father nowhere to be seen in the background. You didn't blame him for avoiding the man entirely. After what occurred you were surprised that Eddie hadn't killed him; although he once came close at nineteen.
The night his mother spilled the truth over one too many glasses of sherry; the night Eddie figured out the man he once looked up to had a different family in an entirely different state.
If you trailed your fingers down the back of his neck you'd find the spot his father had slammed him into the banister of their front staircase. The fight bordered on brutal. A viscous act that left what relationship remained tattered and torn to shreds on the floor around them. Both men landed hits with no true aim, teeth bared and seeking blood through the red haze of their anger.
Eddie wanted revenge. His father wanted submission.
They'd always stood on thin ice ready to crack beneath the weight of their baggage. A horrendous cycle of push and pullâeach one aware of how to tear the other down with ease. Their bond was built on torment. And to watch the tension explode, drowning them both beneath the glacial waters, left you stuck in a dark chasm of helplessness.
Stupidly you got a scar to match when you threw yourself in front of a near unconscious Eddie, attempting to stop the man from landing a final punch to his son's face. He hit you instead. The scar on your shoulder was small, barely there, but you could still feel Eddie's lips on it when he cleaned the wound. Apologies spilling from his lips until he fell asleep in your bed.
But you supposed that was Eddie. A protector above all else.
The man who would throw himself into the heat of battle before considering the consequences that came with a choice that reckless.
"They'll be here in twenty minutes." He crept up behind you, glancing at the photo of him on his Mom's birthday. "Thinking about that night?"
You jumped, glancing at him over your shoulder. "Yeah."
He nodded. "Hard not to."
"Has he ever..."
"No." The darkened shadow across his face gave you enough of a response. It was time to move onto a different subject.
"So..." You settled on his couch with a heavy sigh. "Your work."
Dragging the throw blanket his mother sewed him over your legs, he clambered onto the empty space beside you. The heater was slowly sputtering to lifeâradiator giving it all it had to keep the both of you warm. But beside him you felt the heat practically emanate off his body in waves.
What you wouldn't give to curl into his lap and seek it from the source.
"The drama has been exquisite," he stated, draping his arm on the top of the couch behind your head. "You remember me tellin' you about Jane?"
"Goodall?"
"The very one." He settled further into the cushions, legs spread beneath the blanket until he nudged yours. "She and Ray broke up. It's been hell in the office dealing with their confused tension."
"Wait, isn't this the guy who cheated with her?"
He nodded. "Now I'm not saying he's horrible. But you gotta at least break up with the girl before you go with another."
"Ahh you're taking my teachings to heart," you smiled, leaning your head against his arm.
"I have to Kit. Every time I don't I feel like you're gonna pop out and whack meâ" Landing a weak hit to his side, he clamped his hand around your wrist, tugging you close with a laugh. "Like that!"
Attempting to free yourself was futile when he outmatched you in strength and speed. Yet you found that you enjoyed being this close to him. Laughing as you once did in the years of your youth. When all that mattered was which movie you were seeing that Friday and what school the team was playing.
Somehowâin the blink of an eyeâyou were two adults stuck in your own travesties. Forced to forgo the blithe energy of your childhood. You'd jump at the chance to go back; if only to get more time with Eddie. To spend a few more hours in his bedroom watching horror movies that left you both shell shocked and restless.
To cheer him on at every game with the promise of burgers and shakes at the local drive in afterwards. To watch him grow up and move to New York. Only this time...you'd follow him the second he asked.
His eyes softened as your smile slipped from your lips, fingers curling around his fist. Hazel had never been your favorite color until Eddie left. You rarely thought of it when he was home, but as his absence became a reality you could no longer suffer through you began to see the color everywhere. In the trees, in the color of your old blanket you stole off his childhood bed, in the flannel that once belonged to his grandfather.
You found traces of Eddie Alden in every little aspect of your life, except him.
"Kitten," he murmured, a fraction closer than he'd been a minute ago. His eyes dropped to the curve of your lips, how they parted so sweetly at the sound of your pet name.
"Eddie..."
All that remained was the space between your headsâyour body practically leaning into him the longer you talked. He could lean in and kiss you. He could finally learn what you tasted like, figure out how you'd sound if his tongue licked along yours. Fuck he'd never wanted something more.
 The dazed glint in your eyes made his heart twist, his tongue peeking out to wet his bottom lip. Your gaze fixed on the movement immediately and Eddie felt his cock twitch in interest. One day he'd explain to you how fucking beautiful you were; how his mind went haywire at the sight of your smile. How he'd destroy himself to get you to look at him like he hung the moon and stars.
One day he'd spill his deepest darkest secrets to you.
Starting with three little words that kept him up at night tossing and turning.
He swallowed thickly. "I..."
The door buzzed loud enough to scare the shit out of you. Leaping back, you felt the breath catch in your throat painfully and like an idiot you began to cough. Eddie's eyes went wide, his hand tapping your back as you waved him off to get the pizza. Leaving you to sit there on his couch and choke...on air.
Dumbass.
"Thanks man," Eddie muttered, handing off what cash he had left in his wallet. "Keep the change."
He rushed back to the couch, pizza in one hand and a glass of water in the other. "Kit, you okay? Here drink this before you die on my fuckin' couch."
"Shut up Eddie," you snipped, eyes burning with a glare. Though the smile on your lips told him something else. "Hand over the pizza before it's you dying."
"Yes ma'am," he muttered, flipping open the box and swiping the remote off the coffee table. Taking his spot by your side back with a grin.
tagging whoever wants to do it!

better left unsaid // cth
chapter thirty two
in which orion has leukemia, and calum doesnât know.
calum hood x fem!oc
read other chapters
october 7, 2018 los angeles, california orion
After several hours on the phone with Dr. Harris and her team, we successfully have transferred my leukemia chemo plan to a hospital in San Diego â the Barnhart Cancer Center. I am moving back in with my moms officially, but I donât think anyone is happy about it. Theyâre happy to have me home, but theyâre unhappy about the circumstances.
Nobody is happy with me right now, and I donât blame them. Iâm not happy with myself. I havenât been able to eat or sleep since I made Calum leave. Iâve managed maybe three hours of sleep in the past five days. I have eaten a single slice of cold and stale cheese pizza, but thatâs it. Iâm just not hungry.
Today, my moms and Macy are helping me pack up what few things are truly mine from the apartment in LA. Most of the things there are Calumâs, even if I picked them out, he paid for most of them. A few things we split costs on, but it doesnât feel right for me to take them. I plan on just getting my clothes, makeup, and a handful of mugs that heave sentimental value to me.
We pull into the parking garage at the apartment for what might be the last time I ever do and park right by the doors in the Uhaul van that we rented. Even though we arenât getting that much stuff, it wonât fit in any of our small sedans or my Mamaâs hatchback. Macy is waiting for us in the lobby, chatting with Ron, when we walk in.
âHi,â I breathe when I see her. Itâs the first time Iâve seen her since the shitshow that was in San Diego a few days ago. I had to fill her in over text to ask her to help me move out, and she was just as shocked as everyone else by the news.
Macy doesnât say anything, she just pulls me into a hug. âHow are you doing?â She asks.
I hold back tears while I step back from her. I donât say anything, knowing Iâll just cry if I start talking about it. âMacy, you remember my moms?â I motion to them, and Macy nods.
âNice to see you again,â Mom says.
Macy smiles a sad smile. I know we all wish this reunion was under different circumstances.
âShall we get started?â Mama asks, looking between everyoneâs faces.
I nod and walk to the elevator, not bothering to make sure people are following me. Iâm sure they are.
The apartment feels eerily empty when we walk in. Duke isnât here anymore, which makes me sad. I didnât get to say goodbye to him. The band took him to the hotel that night in San Diego so he could hang out with Michael and Crystalâs dogs, and then I broke up with Calum the next morning. I think heâs joining the band for the rest of the tour.
I head straight for the bedroom, knowing that most of my things that Iâm taking with me are in the closet. Without a rhyme or reason, I just start throwing clothes into garbage bags. I also put all of Calumâs things back on his side of the closet. Iâll miss wearing his cozy clothes, but theyâre his, so he deserves to have them.
âWill you take these down for me?â I ask whoever followed me into the closet. I motion to the garbage bags Iâve already filled and tied off. Hands reach out and take them away, leaving me alone in the closet to keep throwing my clothes into plastic bags. Iâll have to refold everything when I get back to my momsâ.
Within just a few minutes, my side of the closet is bare. Really, itâs two thirds of the closet, since Calum has far less than I do in terms of clothes. I ignore the ache in my chest before I grab the remaining two bags to take with me to the kitchen, where Macy is boxing up my mugs.
âI have the Madrid mug, the vegetable soup one, the one you thrifted with the gold flowers, and all the little crystal espresso cups. Am I missing any?â She asks without looking up from her work. Sheâs wrapping each of the mugs individually in newspaper, putting far more care into it than I think is necessary. These mugs will only be mine for a few more months, maybe a year, and then theyâll be trash or thrift store donations unless someone in my life decides they want them.
âIf you are, itâs fine.â
She nods and gives me a half smile.
âThanks for helping out, Mace. I appreciate it.â
Macy halts her actions then, and before I know it, sheâs hugging me. âYouâd be here for me if I needed. Iâm just giving you the same love you give to the world.â
I want to make a sarcastic comment about the negativity I put into the world breaking up with Calum, but I bite my tongue.
âStill, thank you.â
She lets me go and then reaches up to push my hair out of my eyes. âAnytime.â
Packing up doesnât really take much time. I also clean out the fridge of anything that will expire before Calum comes home, and most of it Macy takes down to her parentsâ place, but a few things go in the trash. Everyone helps me clean the apartment so that Cal can come home to an apartment free of my messes. Iâm sure it will be hard for him to come back to the home we built together, so I just want to make myself as scarce as possible.
I leave most of the framed photos of us, because only one of us will need to look back on memories, and itâs not me. I do take a framed polaroid that we took backstage in Amsterdam two years ago and one of the two of us last Christmas. Backstage in Amsterdam, we were both goofing off. Heâs holding me upside down while we both laugh uncontrollably, and Ashton is in the background giving a thumbs up. The one from last Christmas is at his grandparentsâ house in Australia. Weâre both wearing plain white button ups, which was unintentional but we decided it was cute and both wore them, mine with a mini skirt underneath and his with a pair of black jeans. Weâre sitting on the floor in front of the Christmas tree with the lights behind us, huge smiles on our faces and our cheeks red from a few too many beers. Mali took it.
I put the frames in my purse and hope that none of the other people here with me saw me tearing up at them.
âMacy, would you like to join us for a quick lunch? We were thinking of going to the bagel place nearby.â My moms are helping tie up the rest of the garbage and recycling, placing it outside of the door for the trash valet service when they come by later today.
âOh, sure, that would be nice.â
We load the rest of my things into the van and then move it to a visitorâs space before we walk down to Rosieâs. As always, thereâs a line. I donât plan on eating anything, but I donât mind waiting with my moms and Macy. I think Iâll get a coffee while weâre here since Iâm so tired, even though Iâm sure it will make me nauseous to drink caffeine on an empty stomach. I deserve it â both the caffeine and the sickness.
While weâre waiting in line, Macy and my moms get to know each other a little better. They even offer to host Macy for family dinners whenever sheâd like once sheâs back at UCSD next year so she can eat a home-cooked meal instead of shitty dining hall food. I try not to think about how theyâll essentially be replacing me with her.
âOrion?â An unfamiliar voice says, and I perk up from being zoned out to find whoever spoke to me in this line.
My eyes meet blue ones, still unfamiliar.
âUh, hi? Do I know you?â
âNo, sorry to bother you,â the girl says. âBut, did you and Cal break up?â
Iâm stunned by the question, so stunned I canât even speak.
âWhat the hell?â Macy says, stepping halfway in front of me to be between me and the girl. âYouâd never ask that shit to someone you actually know, so why do you feel like you can ask someone that just because one of the involved parties is famous? Sheâs a fucking person, not a character in some fantasy storyline.â
âMacy, itâs fine,â I tell her, placing my hand on her shoulder. Sheâs fuming. I look at the girl, whoâs practically shaking with embarrassment, as several other people in line are now watching us. âYeah, we did.â
I knew people would be speculating instantly. Between the canceled shows, photos of both of us crying at beaches, and me unfollowing Calum on Instagram, as well as removing him as a follower on my own page, the breakup would be evident to anyone who was looking for signs of it. I didnât imagine getting approached on the street about it, but Iâd seen the Tweets and videos talking about it, rehashing all the painfully public facts.
The girl nods. âOkay, thank you. Have a good day.â
What the fuck? Thank you?
âGod, I hate people sometimes,â Macy fumes. Sheâs staring daggers at the girlâs back as she walks away. âThat shitâs about to be all over Twitter.â
I agree with her, but I just quietly reply. âIt already is.â
â

â why are you making hot pockets at 3 am? â
3am starters
James flinches surprised. He didnât expect anyone to catch him on having midnight snack. Well, late midnight snack.
âYang Xiao Long...â Heâs getting defensive and seems like thatâs a lecture incoming. Probably. Itâs 3 am - who knows how functional Ironwood at the time is. He likely doesnât really know that himself. âAs the General here, I am pretty much allowed to do what I see fit in any given situation, including a surprise muster at 3 am.â Generous of him, itâs only hot pockets, right?
Okay, itâs not the real reason.
âWe run out of leftover pizza.â He admits with a sigh. âWant some?â James smiles. Who would know best how to hide a midnight crime if not the General himself.
#ic::Ironwood#look#someone ate snack he hoped for#he's not gonna have any regrets#but also he's gonna restock the kitchen the next day#he could have move the remains of pizza to his apartment small kitchen#but that would be rude#and now all they have are hot pockets#the kitchen didn't need backsory#but it deserved it#xDD#sundragcn

Shang-Chi x male reader fluff where they try to find ways to have fun during the pandemic.
Pronouns: None/Not Specified
Prompt: Finding fun things to do with your boyfriend
A/N: Iâm literally so excited to post this I love him so much just. Look at him. Also might be kinda dry bc I havenât watched the movie in a while but oh well. Not pandemic specific, this could also be read as you two just finding new hobbies. Switching between using his birth name and âAmericanâ name bc yannow I feel like itâs important to acknowledge both.
TW: None!
Something you and your boyfriend had noticed in the recent years was that time had a unique way of passing
So fast, but simultaneously dragging on
Very early on you noticed you needed some new hobbies
In reality, it took you and Shaun a week to get burnt out on nearly every video game you owned
Smash Bros? Got repetitive. Animal Crossing? Creator block. Minecraft? After you threatened to break the Xbox (you were blown up by a creeper after just finding diamonds), he decided it was best to hide the controls.
Which led to you sitting in the kitchen in the middle of the night, eating some leftover pizza
âWhat do we do now?â
âBeats me.â
Cue the brainstorming session
The two of you paced around the small apartment, trying to think of new things to try
âWhat about cooking?â
You tried that
The emphasis on tried
Let me get this straight though: Shang-Chi can absolutely cook. The issue is more of whether he wants to or not.
The next morning, you two were ready to (safely!) get ingredients at the farmerâs market
You kept asking him what he was planning on making, but he wouldnât tell you
It was cute, though, to see him excited about something
He had it all planned out in his head, and hoped the execution would go well
Your lovely boyfriend was going to prepare one of his favorite meals that his mom made when he was young
Then, you two would go to the park and have a bit of time to do yoga
To say it shocked you was an understatement
He ended up taking the food to the park and having a bit of a picnic after stretching. The weather couldnât have been more perfect; the temperature was amazing, with the hint of a breeze
No matter how mundane the rest of the world seemed, nature remained untouched. Flowers were blooming, leaves in all shades of green, and the wildlife positively buzzing
Yoga was tranquil and relaxing â until the breeze picked up too much and made you lose your balance
The sight of Shaun with his hand out had you at a loss for words. âWow, falling for me that hard?â
You couldâve stayed in that moment forever. It was quiet in the park, but even if it wasnât, that wouldnât have mattered. The lush green leaves danced in the background almost pointing you towards the face of your beloved.
For the first time in ages, he just looked⊠peaceful. Looking at you had earned that reaction.
Soft beams of light danced over your skin, highlighting the color and (freckles/imperfections/etc). The color of your eyes a brightened hue but still full of life â a great contrast to how everything felt lately.
The moment felt gentle, and fragile. Like something that could shatter if you moved on too quickly. Everything around you began to blur until it dissipated completely, leaving the two of you in the pure white energy.
His face leaned in closer, enough for you to practically feel his smile.
âI think we should really hop on the âplant gayâ bandwagon, donât you think?â
âShang-Chi, youâre lucky I love you. Because you just completely butchered our moment.â
He was right, though. Afterwards, your shared space became full with different plants. All colors, shapes, and shades.
An homage to your love and â hopefully â more days in the park.

the way I love you // tom holland x reader

word count: 2.1K warning: swearing, lil bit of angst if you squint summary: your best friend tom is helping you move in, but you have a secret and itâs been making things difficult. itâs time to fess up.Â
The rain thumped against the windows, droplets eagerly chasing each other to the bottom. The wind whistled, branches reaching out as the trees shook. Soft wispy curtains were pulled tight to keep the cold, stormy weather locked outside. Yet the sounds of cars speeding through the flooded roads could still be heard from the storeys above. The room was almost bare, the orange glow of the streetlights casting warm shadows upon the wooden floorboards. A couple of unopened cardboard boxes were stacked up against one wall. One section of the room was lowly lit with battery-operated soft, twinkling fairy lights and flickering candles. The floor was decorated with a few cosy blankets and pillows. Half eaten cartons of sushi sat abandoned alongside a takeaway pizza box full of cheesy crusts. A laptop balanced precariously on one of the boxes, movie already playing. âHappy move-in day,â a voice whispers, just grazing past your ear. You lay on your front on the floor, wrapped up in an exceptionally fluffy blanket. Your best friend is sat semi cross-legged with his knees up, arms hooked around them, the pair of you only a breath apart. You turn your head lazily in his direction, unable to hide the grin from your face as he cocks his head, mimicking you with his own cheesy smile - noses almost touching. âThanks for helping me out. Have I ever told you that youâre my favourite?â âOh, not nearly enough.â He nudges your side, wiggling his eyebrows dramatically. You laugh, causing his face to soften at your expression before you focus your attention back to the small screen. Tom frowns slightly as you turn away, keeping his eyes on you as he drinks you in slowly. Your hair was almost completely dry from the rainstorm, and had begun curling at the ends and around your hairline, one piece had fallen across your face which he ached to tuck back into place behind your ear. You had a light flush across your cheeks, eyes shining bright as your face slackened, concentrating on the film. He let out a soft sigh before swallowing, dragging his eyes away from you and back to the movie. **** It hadnât taken long for you and tom to gravitate closer to each other, a chill making its way through the apartment as you were yet to install a new heating system. You were tucked into his side, head resting gently against his shoulder, breaths synchronising. You shifted slightly, yet Tom kept a protective arm around you. A black screen took over the laptop as the credits started rolling. Tom let out a yawn, rubbing his eyes with one hand as he slowly sat up, bringing you with him. âI better go, itâs late and I have a bunch of meetings tomorrow. Plus you still have unpacking to doâŠâ he teases, collecting some of the empty cartons. You nod, wrapping the blanket around your shoulders and gathering it around your waist as you hit pause on the laptop. Stretching your body out, you could already feel the twinges in your back from sitting on the hard floor. The sky had darkened considerably, storm worsening behind the curtains, rain lashing down hard. You glance across at tom, watching as he steps foot into the kitchen, tiding up the rubbish into a neat pile. You bite your lip slightly as you give him a once over. His hair was unruly, eager for a styling from Rachel as it attempted to curl against his forehead, and you could see where heâd been running his hands through it all day. You loved how relaxed he looked in your presence, allowing himself to be slightly unkempt and messy. You watched his mouth and eyebrows twitch animatedly as he cleaned up the kitchen, the sleeves of his oversized hoodie rolled up his forearms. Suddenly he looked up, eyes directly locking with yours and your felt your face flush. âStop staring at me you div,â he teased, as his face breaking out into a grin, eyes creasing at the sides, still locked with yours. âCalm down movie star, you ainât all that,â you laugh nervously, internally berating yourself for getting caught in a trance as you pick up the rest of the rubbish and join Tom in the kitchen, blanket slouched around your shoulders and trailing behind you. Truth was, something had changed during the last film Tom had been away filming for. Tiny butterflies would dance in your stomach whenever your phone pinged with a new message or silly photo heâd sent you. You brushed it off at first, thinking you were just missing his company. But by the time he got back, you felt nervous and giddy around him and everything was weird. It wasnât until one day you found yourself waking up with a start as he began to infiltrate your dreams when you realised you were feeling very differently for your best friend than youâd ever felt before. âThis place is nice, but I still donât know why you turned us boys down though? Harrison said he asked before I came back and you said no?â he wondered aloud, miming an arrow through his heart as the pair of you make your way downstairs. You laugh at his antics but wrap the blanket that little bit tighter around yourself, finding the floor of your building suddenly extremely interesting. âDonât tell me youâre sick of us lot already? Weâve been together too long for you to ditch us all now.â He gives you a little nudge in the arm with his elbow. You took a deep breath, shaking your hair out of your face. âIâll still be round all the time. I literally live on the other side of the park,â you laugh as he pouts, âTom, itâs not even 20 minutes away.â âStill doesnât explain why you wonât move in with us?â You sigh, your frustration building. âJust leave it,â you snap, adding a quieter âpleaseâ after a beat. Thereâs a stifling silence as you both walk down the concrete staircase, you twist the mechanical lock on the front door and wait for the buzz as it clicks and opens up to the world outside.
Tom whistles at the torrential storm as he steps outside, trees were bending over, leaves billowing in the wind. The steps up to the building were gathering puddles of water and you could already see the road ahead was beginning to flood.
âOh my god.â
The pair of you quickly throw the trash into the bin that was sitting at the bottom of some basement level steps.
âListen, but I only ask because...itâs just, youâve been a bit off since I came back from Atlanta. if it wasnât for Harrison telling me he couldnât make it today, you wouldnât have even asked me to help you move in? Whatâs up with that?â he asks, standing behind you, shielding you from as much of the rain as he could.
âI just thought youâd be busy, yâknow. What with being away for so long.â
âAnd? Itâs not like thatâs ever stopped you before. Seriously though, did I do something wrong? Did the boys? Because you can tell me.â
âTom itâs nothing. Seriously, quit it.â Avoiding his stare, you shake your head and turn on your heel in an attempt to push the door back open but it stays firmly shut. You twist the handle multiple times as it jangles in response, remaining firmly locked. You freeze in immediate panic, feeling your pockets for your keys which were still sitting on your kitchen counter.
âOh my god, no. No fucking way.â
âWhat? What is it?â He reaches a hand over your shoulder and gives the door a shove, âIs it stuck?â
âNo tom, itâs locked! The wind mustâve closed it! Iâve left my apartment open and the keys are on the kitch â fuck! Iâm such an idiot.â
âHey itâs fine. Calm down. Hey, maybe if you lived with us we wouldnât be having this problemâŠâ he joked, pulling off his hoodie as thunder rumbled in the distance, the rain bouncing down onto the two of you.
âNow is really not the time Tom!â You exclaim, feeling your heart-rate spike, anxious about being locked out on your very first day living alone.
âWould you calm down, weâll sort it. Your doors just unlocked, itâs not like you left it wide open.âÂ
âIf you hadnât been asking so many stupid questions, I wouldnât have forgotten my keys in the first place!â
âReally?! Youâre blaming me for caring about you? Alright listen, I just wanted to know whatâs going on with you. I know you, and I know when somethingâs wrong! Why won't you just tell me?!â
âOh my god, fine! You want to know so badly? Itâs you, okay!â You shout, whirling around now standing chest to chest, you could feel your eyes burning with the tears you were fighting back, âYouâre the reason I canât move in with you guys! Because I hoped that this feeling would go away. If I avoided you it would go away and things would be normal and nothing would change. But thatâs not the case!â You gulped in a breath, refusing to look into the deep brown eyes that were staring at you, so wide and confused, âThatâs not the case, because every time Iâm with you I feel like my heart is going to beat straight out of my chest. I get these stupid knots in my stomach whenever you so much as send me a fucking text. Sitting together in there side by side, alone together, casually watching a film and all I can think about is god, I wish heâd just kiss me! I donât want to fall in love with you because this,â you gesture between the two of you, âwhat we are, itâll all be gone and Iâll have ruined everything. And I canât Tom. I canât deal with that. So, there you go. Iâm in love with you, and I hate myself for it. So, what? Are you happy now?! Does that clear everything up for you!â
Tom froze.
Your chest heaves, the tears that you let fall mixing in with the rain, leaving you sniffling. You push your soaking wet hair out of your face, roughly wiping your cheeks as you turn and hit the buzzer for the apartment block, banging your fist on the main door.Â
âCâmon!â
Tom stood silently, still frozen outside your apartment entrance, the rain so heavy it was bouncing off of his clothes. His curls were flattened, droplets dripping from his hair, his nose, his eyelashes. his t-shirt was already drenched by the rain, fabric clinging to his frame. He blinks, once, twice then once more, his jaw unclenching.
He reaches forwards, fingertips lightly caressing your hand, his featherlight touch pulsating through your entire body.
You tear your hand away from him, a gasp letting loose, âDonât.â
He perseveres, pulling you round, more forcefully this time until you are nose to nose again.
Your body shivers in the cold, wet air as you stare at the ground. Tomâs firm grip around your wrists.
âLook at me,â he says, his voice soft and gentle.
You squeeze your eyes shut, shaking your head as you exhale breathily.
He lets go of you, your hands curled into small fists at your sides, nails digging into your palms.
One hand lifts your chin to his level, his thumb softly collecting the mixture of tears and rain from beneath your eyes and brushing them away.
âI wish youâd just told me. It wouldâve saved you all this hurt.â
His left hand comes up and tucks the soaking wet pieces of hair that has been whipping around your face in the wind gently behind your ear. Stroking the stray strands.Â
Your teary, glistening eyes connect with his. They were alive with such care and concern. Before you knew it, that feeling was back in the pit of your stomach, pulling and twisting in knots as you stared into the eyes of the boy you loved.Â
You blinked, eyelashes fluttering when all of a sudden, the hand that had brushed your tears away cradles the side of your head, bringing your faces together, the other hand lightly fluttering to your waist, pulling you in closer.Â
The rain continued to fall, the two of you completely oblivious as your lips brush, foreheads pressed together. Itâs soft and slow, almost uncertain at first before immediately intensifying, the two of you pushing your bodies against each other. You take a breath as he strokes your cheek and your lips with his thumb, pulling you back in for another gentle kiss with a hand to the back of your head, tangling in your soaking hair as he presses your faces closer together.Â
The pair of you pull away, both your chests heaving as you exhale.Â
âWhy did you do that?â you ask, voice raspy.Â
âBecause. thatâs the way I love you. Not just as a friend. And for years, I sat on it, too scared to ruin what we have.â You shake your head, as a couple of bubbles of laughter spill from your lips. Tomâs face brightens up quickly, those little creases that you loved so much appearing at the outward corners of his eyes as he whispered, âCâmere. I got you.âÂ
He pulled you in, your arms immediately wrapping around his waist, his body cold under your hands. You could hear and feel his heartbeat, still in perfect time with your own. He tucked his chin so it was resting atop your head. His arm hadnât moved, still cradling the back of your head, pressing you ever so carefully into his chest, the two of you just resting in each others embrace as the rain eased up slightly around you.
There was a beat, as you both relaxed into each other.Â
âSo, I'm glad we solved one problem, but you do know weâre still locked out, right?â Tom says as the pair of you burst out laughing.Â

Ch. 14 - Separate
â MILD NSFW BELOWâ
When you got home, you immediately shut yourself in your bedroom - just wanting to separate yourself as much as possible. You didn't buy Gojo's lame excuse for one minute.
You knew exactly what he said, but whether or not it was a spur of the moment thing you couldn't decide. Instead, you wanted to go with the benefit of the doubt: he was just so overwhelmed by good sex that that was all he could think to say. He doesn't love me, he loves my pussy, you thought simply - as funny as that sounded. Even if that was the truth, your truth, you couldn't help but replay it in your mind involuntarily. It sounded so good and made your heart and your body come alive. Each night, you struggled to fall asleep - only able to do so after touching yourself to the thought even though you felt so guilty and wrong. He'd never be able to settle down, he doesn't want that, you tried to convince yourself. Plus I have Nanami, who...as Gojo said...really is Mr. Perfect.
Meanwhile, Gojo was having quite the breakdown in his bedroom. He had his knees to his chest as he sat against a pillow, the TV glow the only thing in the room. Tears streamed down his cheeks as he recalled that moment in the car as well as many of the moments he shared with Geto. He didn't want to let him go, he couldn't. Loving someone else meant just that for him. Sex meant nothing to him ever since he lost Geto, but you...you changed that. He hadn't felt anything like what he had felt with Geto until that first night. Though it had been a true one night stand, he couldn't deny the sparks.
With time, things fell back into their normal routine again. You spent your weekday time at work, came home and went your separate ways. On the weekend, you'd each go to your own bar or club to keep out of one another's business. You and Gojo were on good terms and not getting on one another's nerves. It was as if that night in the car never happened. You had continued seeing Nanami for small dates and really started to get to know one another. You weren't "going steady" just yet, but things were starting to get a bit serious. Gojo, however, stayed Gojo and brought home new partners every few days, especially on weekends. Your apartment hunt was going well, too. You had been on a few tours and you settled between two different options. Ultimately, you were ready to sign a lease.
"So, where are you gonna' go tonight?" You asked from the kitchen while happily pouring yourself a glass of wine before getting ready for your outing. You were the only reason Gojo kept any form of alcohol in the flat.
"I don't think anywhere tonight," Gojo sighed from the sofa, clicking through channels on the television. "We added two new first years to the bunch recently, making the big total three!" He exclaimed sarcastically. "One of them's Sukuna's vessel, so that's a good time. It's been a long day, so I just want to relax into the weekend."
"Oh," you were shocked to hear such a thing coming from him. He'd always just been ready to party or go somewhere he could find someone he could bring home. "You know what?" You put the bottle down after finishing your pour. "I'll join you! It's been a minute since we've had some time to just relax on a weekend."
"Cool. Pizza?" He wondered, looking over at you with his arms draped over the back of the couch.
"Hell yeah," you grinned while carefully walking over with your tall glass.
Gojo ordered the pizza while you stole the remote and found something to watch. When the food arrived, you enjoyed good food and good conversation with him. When you weren't at each other's throats whether it be angrily or sexually, he was actually good company. You figured your time sleeping together was over - though you had thought that after the second time at that one restaurant - and that once you moved out you'd be able to remain friends.
"Oh yeah," you remembered, talking through a bite of pizza - the cheese specifically extending from your lips as if it were infinite. "I forgot to mention," the cheese successfully detached and slapped your chin, "I found an apartment! I'm scheduled to sign the lease on Monday." You sucked the cheese up and gave a cough as it almost went down your throat.
Gojo, too, began coughing on what he was chewing all thanks to your sudden news. "Wow, okay..."
"So, if you don't mind helping me move..." you trailed off. "All of my stuff's in storage, along with the furniture from my dad... I'll have to wait for it to be shipped from Kyoto, but then we'll be able to settle things."
"Sounds good," Gojo said simply, trying to hide his disdain. It's your fault, Gojo, you wanted her out. He mentally scolded himself, but he knew where he had to stand for his own mental pact.
As you took your last sips of the wine that you poured, your phone began to ring. You quickly set the glass down and answered right away, seeing that it was surprisingly Nanami.
"Hey," you blushed as you answered. Gojo sat still with a blank stare at the television. He couldn't hear your conversation, but knew exactly who it was by how you reacted. "Tonight? Right now? Well, I already ate but... Oh, that works! Okay!" You quickly hopped off the couch. "See you soon!"
"What's happening?" Gojo asked, smiling up at you as he enjoyed your excitement.
"Nanami's coming to pick me up in an hour," you said giddily while standing in the middle of the living room floor. "We're going out for dessert!"
"That's boring," Gojo smirked, "you made it out to be this over the top thing."
"Well...we've been talking a lot and we might make it official!" You squealed happily.
"Oh, that explains it," he finally gave a genuine smile, his tone its usual happy self. He had gotten fairly used to covering his emotions, especially because of what had happened over the past year.
"I've gotta' go get ready!" You nearly sprinted to your room.
You had been in quite a rush, hurrying to get ready in such a short time. It had sped by and you were still getting ready when Nanami arrived, Gojo answering the door instead of you. Nanami's small smile turned into a deep-set frown upon seeing his face.
"You here for Y/N?" He asked with his usual cocky grin while stepping aside so Nanami could enter.
"Why else would I be here?" Nanami sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Right, right...well look at you," Gojo looked him up and down, "all fancy...and no weird ass glasses!" He pointed at his face to which Nanami had to swat away.
"Enough," Nanami commanded in a cold, irritated tone.
"What? It's a compliment, take it!" Gojo shoved his hands in his pockets as you came on, leaning over while slipping on your last shoe.
"Hi, I'm here!" You smiled, finally being able to put your foot down and walked over to Nanami - lacing your arms around his neck.
"Hi," Nanami greeted lowly as you came back to look at him. You pressed a lingering kiss on his lips as Gojo stood by, that smile he had now gone as he patiently waited. "Ready to go?" He asked when you finally parted.
"Yeah, let's!" You grabbed his hand and began strolling out into the hallway. "Don't wait up, Gojo!"
"I won't," he said in a fake tone, slamming the door lazily after you had gone.
Gojo wasn't about to sit up and mope for the rest of the night. As soon as the door had shut he found a girl in his long list of contacts and called her up. After he finished the call, his eye caught the wine bottle you had left on the counter. It had been years since he touched the stuff, never being one for the taste and because he was a lightweight. He had the strangest urge to drink it just as he did the night Geto died. He was able to avoid it then, but the piled up stress was getting to him. And he did just that, gripping the bottle by the neck and downing it. The minute his partner arrived he wasted no time getting her to the bedroom. The two easily slipping around one another as the alcohol began to course through his veins.
"C'mon...take it out," the woman breathlessly begged while straddling him in her underwear. Gojo, too, was in his underwear as he sat underneath her.
"Yeah," he sighed with a fake smile on his face, hand reaching through the opening of his boxer briefs. The one problem: he couldn't get it up. He was completely soft.
"You okay?" She asked, seeing how he obviously was still soft. He had slowly began jerking himself, that perking it up a little. "You called me over here and you're not even horny?"
"I am, just give me a minute," he gave her an angry look from under the blindfold he still wore. He figured his lack of readiness was due to the alcohol that had made him start to see double.
Meanwhile, you sat a table with Nanami finishing your dessert - the waiter bringing a check over. The conversation had been pleasant though you felt like something was off. You could have sworn based off of previous exchanges that Nanami would have asked you to be his, but he had yet to ask.
"Y/N," Nanami started as he pulled out his wallet and set a few bills on the table. "I don't really know how to say this." He sighed, shoving the leather into his back pocket.
"Say...what?" Your voice dropped and so did your heart, right into your stomach. This doesn't sound good.
"I think we should stop seeing each other," he flattened his lips together and folded his hands on the tabletop.
"W-why? Things were going so well..." you mumbled, feeling your eyes start to fill with tears. It felt so embarrassing for this to be happening in the middle of a public place.
"They are..." Nanami reassured you quickly, "I just...don't seem to have it in me. You're very sweet and beautiful, truly, but I'm just...either not feeling it or just not ready."
"Oh," that was all you could say. You had to believe it, no way would Nanami be the type to cheat and dump you for someone else.
Nanami dropped you off outside of the flat and you ascended alone, holding back your tears as you got on the elevator and navigated throughout the building. It almost became too much as you slid the key card into its slot, eyes watering so badly that you could barely see the slot to begin with. As you entered, everything was still and dark. You flipped on the light switch only to begin to hear the subtle sighs coming from Gojo's bedroom. At least one of us got some tonight...
You defeatedly entered your bedroom and took everything off, slipping on something more comfortable. You allowed your emotions to show through, mind overwhelmed with the past several months, and let the tears freefall onto your cheeks. You found a position under your covers, silently crying in the dark while tightly clutching yourself. He didn't mean much to you yet, but the fact that you had recently lost your father added onto the stress of not feeling good enough. You thought that maybe if you had gotten into the profession, technique or no technique, you could've been there to save him.
The fact that you had to deal with listening to some random woman orgasming all over Gojo's dick didn't help matters. It simply made you jealous and horny on top of the sadness. You simply felt like a complete mess as your hands found their way into your bottoms with tears still falling onto your pillow. As much as you hated doing this, you allowed her sighs to guide your hand. Gojo was uncharacteristically quiet, only her high-pitched whines building over time. It went on for quite some time, too, eventually just stopping without any particular sign of climax. Unable to reach your own high, you just gave up and got out of bed to clean your hands - waiting until you heard the proper amount of door shutting and leaving first.
When you finished up, you found Gojo sitting on the sofa watching television with a bored look on his face, no blindfold - his bangs falling in his face as he frowned.
"You okay?" You asked, coming out with your arms crossed tight to hide your body.
"Yeah, just having a rough night," Gojo looked over at you with a sweet smile. "My dumbass decided to finish your wine. I should've known better."
"You actually decided to drink?" you gave a single laugh and walked a bit closer, just coming around to join him on the sofa.
"I do sometimes," Gojo pouted with a playful look on his face, "it just never ends well for me. I'm still feeling it."
"Sounds like you were really going at it in there, though," you used your head to motion back toward the bedroom.
"Oh," he rolled his eyes, "that. That wasn't as good as it probably sounded. Probably good for her, not so much me."
"Really?" You tried to hold back some laughter.
"Yeah, couldn't get it up and then when I finally could I couldn't even cum," he laughed at himself as your cheeks puffed out while holding back. "Go ahead, you can laugh. It's funny." He leaned toward you as he teased, you could smell the alcohol on his breath.
You finally let go, letting out the loudest laughter you had in a while. "Wow, that made me feel a lot better."
"Better? Dinner not go so good?" Gojo asked as you came down from your outburst.
You bit your bottom lip, not wanting to give a truthful answer. For some reason, you didn't want to feel defeated in front of Gojo - as if he'd tease you for being surprised for dumped by the most uptight sorcerer. "It wasn't what I expected," you answered semi-truthfully.
"I guess I could've guessed since you didn't bring him home," he smirked, looking at you without moving his head. "Guess it went pretty bad then if he didn't want to fuck you," he turned his head as you sat sadly next to him, "because I'd fuck you even if I were mad at you." The serious look in his eyes jolted your heart to life, you began to feel nervous.
"Is that supposed to be a compliment?" You scoffed, sitting up a bit straighter to cope with your sudden excitement.
"Up to you," he leaned toward you, still clearly feeling the effects of what he drank - which you knew to be not very much considering what was left in the bottle.
"Gojo," you leaned away but he kept coming closer until he was practically crawling over your body. "What are you doing?" You chuckled placing a hand on his chest as he hovered over you, his pupils small. You, too, certainly weren't completely denying of him.
"What do you want me to do?" He asked with a devilish smirk, the same smirk you recalled from your first few ventures. For a moment, he looked like the Gojo you first met. You were completely melted from his seduction, those blue eyes intensifying his stare. He leaned forward to your neck, feeling his tongue and his teeth begin to nip and suck at your flesh - his chest almost on your chest, his pelvis now brushing against your own. You still weren't pushing him away, debating on what would be the best option. You knew you shouldn't, you knew deep down what was happening - why you kept coming back to him for more...you just couldn't admit it.
"Fuck me..." you whimpered as the bumps on you skin rose, your back arching so your chest pushed to his.
"Hmm?" He came up to look at your lewd face, already blushing expectantly through low eyelids.
"Please...fuck me," you requested desperately, craning your neck so he'd come down once again.

Indebted
Day 8 of Matsuhana week: Yakuza
Summary: Left with his fatherâs debts, Hanamaki decides to not pay back the dangerous Yakuza boss until heâs on his knees before the man himself.
Warnings: mafia/yakuza business, threatening letters (not into much detail), minor character death (by cancer), tranquilizer gun, kidnapping, age gap, fingering, Virgin!Hanamaki, bit of corruption kink, lube, no condom, creampie
âWhy does he have so much junk?â He groans, looking through another box. âWhoâd have known the old man had so much stuff to hide?â
Hanamaki was digging through his ill fatherâs belongings. His mother was currently at the hospital while the nurses caught her up on the situation, but it wasnât looking good. The cancer had spread to his brain, signaling his end was near. His mother, however, decided to dig into their limited money supply to see if it could be fixed, leaving them with same amount of money before his father got that new job about 10 years ago. So, Hanamaki thought he could sell some items to get extra cash.
Oh, he wasnât planning on sharing it.
His mother had taken plenty of money he could have used for college, as well as moving out. Even now, she refused to see that her husband was a lost cause and keep the money to use on her son, but no. Sheâll get all the life insurance money, as well, so itâs not like sheâs in desperate need of cash. Hanamaki, on the other hand, could barely eat and make ends meet when he worked at a nearby pizza restaurant. The answer, and his reasonings, were clear.
Digging through a box he found under the bed, Hanamakiâs face changes drastically as he opens the box to find money. Wads of paper bills that could set him up for the next year, honestly. However, as he takes the money, he finds a note underneath it. Curious as ever, he decides to read it.
â50,000 yen for the Bossâ is all it reads, making him tilt his head. However, more digging through the box makes him realize his dad was not just hoarding money, but rather keeping the money and giving it to this.. Boss guy. A part of Hanamaki told him it was bad news, but the other part of him needed money.
Pocketing the cash and grabbing any antiques, he left the room and never looked back.
Three days later, a proper ceremony was in place for Hanamakiâs father, who finally succumbed to the cancer eating him and left behind a widow and a son. Hanamakiâs mother was incessant on a proper burial, despite the money necessary for it. Condolence money would be given, but that money was hardly enough for someone to have a proper ceremony. Hanamaki may have spent most of his time picking bones and putting them in the urn, but he wasnât going with his mother and uncle to the family grave, instead going back to his car.
A cheap, old car that needed a lot of money to be back into good working order, but Hanamaki liked how reliable it was. It may creak and sigh and he canât go too fast, but heâs always to work on time and never wastes money sprucing it up. Getting to the car, however, Hanamaki saw something under his wiper. A note, most likely.
âWho-â he sputtered, looking around the empty parking lot. He wasnât parked illegally, nor was he in a special spot, so he wonders who left it. Reading it made him wish he didnât.
âTo the young Hanamaki Takahiro, in the wake of your fatherâs passing, you are to take on full responsibility and pay back his accumulated debt. Sincerely, Seijoh Family.â
Hanamaki was no idiot. He may have been able to forget about the notes and letters and the money, but he couldnât as his eyes ran over the inked words. The Seijoh Family was a yakuza family that was well known for helping those down on their luck, as long as you could pay them back when your luck turned around. It suddenly made sense.
The lack of money and his always empty stomach, the fighting between his parents, all of it suddenly changed within a couple of days with a new promotion. Hanamaki went from eating small quantities to large ones, his house went from a small one to a nice and big one. Everything got better, but then everything got worse. It was more of a middle ground, honestly, but he could feel it slipping. His father had gotten everything he wanted and then suddenly, he needed to pay back the money he was loaned. And now, with his cremated remains in an urn, Hanamaki would be taking up his fatherâs debts.
Although the message scares Hanamaki, he canât afford to let it control him. He has to go back to work and prepare for college classes soon. He canât be worried about some creepy guy planning to kill him because heâs struggling. Even as he tells himself that, the next couple of days has him putting tips into a jar in his kitchen, sliding it under the sink and out of his sight. The money he took from his father was 10x what he makes in a week, making him worried that heâll never be able to pay back the sum of debt.
With the dread of something bad about to happen, Hanamaki decides to push the thought away, hoping a gooey cheeseburger and soda can take the feeling away. With his dinner, a movie will be enough to take his mind off of everything. As soon as he sits down, though, he gets a wiggling doorknob. Hoping itâs someone trying to get into the wrong apartment, he waits for it to stop. When it does, he relaxes once more, only to then fly out of his seat when two people walk through the door.
Theyâre big, despite Hanamaki having some muscle on him. Big and dressed in dark clothing, wearing protective layers on their face so he canât get a proper look at them. Heâs quick enough to try to get away, hopping over the couch to reach the balcony when one of the guys shoots him with something. Face planting on the floor in front of the window, the last thing Hanamaki sees is the guy pull out a cell phone.
When Hanamaki comes to, the first thing he notices is the hushed whispers and heâs draped over something â or someone. His arms feel like jelly, but his eyes slowly open to reveal a corridor, dimly lit as the same two guys, he thinks, walking behind him. Heâs momentarily startled awake by them, but he realizes he soon has other worries when he notices heâs entered a big room, the door shutting loudly behind him.
âIs this the one?â
âYes sir,â one of them answers. Hanamaki is then placed down on his knees in front of the other person in the room. A glance is all Hanamaki is blessed with before his head is shoved down, almost into the floor by the guy behind him. âHead down,â he sternly says.
âNow, now. We mustnât hurt him too badly. How else will I get my money back?â The man says, the chair underneath him creaking as he leans forward. With his head no longer forced down, Hanamaki takes another chance to look up at the man before him. Clad in black slacks and sleek shoes, Hanamaki has an easy time figuring out just whoâs in front of him. The ironed white shirt had a few buttons loose, sleeves rolled to his elbows, showing enough muscles to know force was a valid option. The man himself had a smirk that made it seem as though he was playing a game with Hanamaki, further proved when his hand grabbed Hanamakiâs chin and let him get a better look. âYouâre quite young, arenât you? College age, perhaps?â
âHow did-â Hanamaki sputters, only to stop when his smirk drops. âSir?â
âMatsukawa Issei. Iâm sure youâre aware of your fatherâs debts, which are now your responsibility. However, I canât see how Iâd benefit from someone struggling to make ends meet. I may be cruel, but Iâm also fair. If you canât work and live comfortably, I canât get all my money back. Do you see my dilemma?â
âYou could, I donât know, let me go?â Hanamaki suggests, raising an eyebrow. He mentally takes a point when Matsukawaâs lips tilt into a smile.
âYouâre funny, but I canât do that,â he sighs, smile dropping. His eyes then turn to the goons in the room. âGet out. Iâll discuss things in private,â he orders, each subordinate leaving. Once gone, he sighs once more as he moves over to his desk, pressing a button as shades cover the windows and the room is pitched into darkness. When the desk lamp and floor lamp near the couch turn on, Hanamaki finally gets a better look at the room.
Despite being shoved to his knees before Matsukawa as if he was placed on a throne, the room looks similar to a study. With Matsukawa leaning against a dark mahogany desk, large and almost empty aside from an old looking phone and a control board, the only thing left in the room are pictures on the wall and the spacious couch. The pillows looked so comfortable and much more expensive than the cheap couch he owns. Once Hanamaki had finished looking around, he straightened his back a bit more and looked at Matsukawa, wondering just what was going to happen.
âWhatâs next, then? You canât kill me because then you donât get money, but you also canât just let me go because I canât pay you back like my old man did, so weâre in limbo,â he breaks the silence first, eyes scanning Matsukawa for any instance of movement.
âYouâll still be paying me back, of course. I canât lend you any money because of your fatherâs debts, sadly. Although, Iâm sure youâd not want to be in his same shoes. You know what, I like you, so Iâll give you some options,â he begins walking closer to Hanamaki, making adrenaline kick in. He may not seem threatening, but he has an entire building full of people at his fingertips. As he circles Hanamaki, he continues talking. âOption one, you pay me back at your leisure. Iâll even help you a bit, of course making you pay back more, but youâre not on a time limit like everyone else. Option two, I take the money I can from you and your mother, who currently sits on your fatherâs life insurance money, and leave you with just enough to scrape by. Option three,â he stops, kneeling in front of a currently exhausted Hanamaki, taking his chin between his fingers until theyâre eye to eye, âyou let me blow off some steam and your debt will be down 10 times itâs original amount. So you donât have to do the math, that means instead of roughly 50 million yen, youâll be paying only 5 million. Itâs quite a lot, Iâll admit, but itâs much better than what you have to pay.â
âWhatâs.. what does blowing off steam count as, exactly? Letting you hit me every time you get angry or something?â
âNo, as in you let me use your body as I see fit. I could hit you, but I have other ideas in mind,â he says, smiling as Hanamakiâs face darkens when the gears start moving. âYou can decline, of course, but thatâs a lot of money. Not to mention, youâre still gonna have to pay rent and buy groceries, you may die before paying off the debt. Like I saidââ
âIâll do it,â Hanamaki interjects, relaxing his shoulders but still sitting up straight. âDespite the clichĂ© of me paying with my body, itâs really not the worst thing in the world. Iâd prefer it over you hitting me, as well,â
âThe deal has been made and that means from this moment on, you and your body will belong to me,â Matsukawa says, then moves behind Hanamaki. âIâve the perfect spot for you to lie, as well,â he practically purrs in Hanamakiâs ear, nudging him up and forward. To the desk.
âKinda expected the couch, but itâs better than the floor,â Hanamaki chuckles, only to then gasp as cool metal slides against his skin. Itâs a knife, heâs sure of it, but as soon as itâs there, itâs gone again and his bound wrists are free. Completely focused on his surroundings, Hanamaki forgot about his bound wrists until suddenly they were no longer forced behind his back. Once free, Matsukawa spins him around traps him against the desk, his hand once more cupping his chin.
âYouâre a cute one. Ever kissed someone?â
âWhen I was 10. Some girl was dared to kiss me, but not recently,â Hanamaki breathlessly whispers, eyes drawn to Matsukawaâs lips when theyâre so close. Feeling his breath ghost over his lips has him wishing for things to move a bit faster, but Matsukawa wonât give him that satisfaction.
âSome dare to kiss you hardly counts. I meant a real one,â he says in response, but doesnât encourage a reply when his lips press against Hanamakiâs, tilting his head as his hand moves to the back of Hanamakiâs head while his other hand slips beneath the cardigan and oversized t-shirt, feeling warm skin. With his lips melding against Hanamakiâs, he finds his fingers running through pink strands as the other slips into jeans and further down, making Hanamaki tense. A swipe over the bottom lip with his tongue and Matsukawa pulls away, licking away the small strand of saliva keeping them tethered. âLike that?â
Although Matsukawa was referring to his previous sentence, Hanamaki shakily sighed as he nodded, âI did,â making Matsukawa chuckle a bit. Removing his hand from Hanamakiâs hair and jeans, Matsukawa places him on the desk. âPretty empty for a big desk. You usually take peopleâs virginities on desks?â Hanamaki jokes, hoping to lighten the heavy mood, obviously unfamiliar with such serious situations.
âVirginities?â Matsukawa asks, his hands stopping at Hanamakiâs thighs before squeezing as he smiles. âIâve never gotten the opportunity to take someoneâs virginity, actually. Only taken those who thought sleeping with me would save their skin. It didnât, but that was because it was always their idea. You, on the other hand,â he says, hands once more moving to slide under Hanamakiâs t-shirt, âare in a one of a kind situation. Iâll make sure to treat you kindly.â
âUm, small request, if I may,â Hanamaki says, hands moving from Matsukawaâs shoulders to his hands, stopping them from sliding off his clothes. âCan I keep on my shirt? I donât feel quite comfortable being so.. vulnerable. I understand ifââ
âGranted,â Matsukawa cuts him off, hands still sliding against his skin but not aiming to strip him of his clothes. After all, the main focus isnât making Hanamaki uncomfortable but rather to send him through throes of pleasure. Hands move down, curling around the hem of his jeans as Matsukawa presses his lips to Hanamakiâs jaw and neck, making the younger man sigh in bliss. When his pants are taken off, Hanamaki flushes as Matsukawaâs fingers then gently pry off his boxers. The simple act of sliding them down his legs is made more sensual as Matsukawa kisses down his body, only to stop at his hard cock. âExcited, are we?â
âWell, youâre very good at this,â he quips back, turning his head. Instead of huffing and puffing, Hanamaki soon finds himself biting his finger when Matsukawaâs tongue slides against his cock. âI didnât thinkââ
âIâm quite familiar when it comes to pleasure. Sit back and relax,â Matsukawa says, wrapping his lips around Hanamakiâs cock before putting it all in his mouth. The ease of which he takes all of Hanamaki doesnât go unnoticed, but heâs not bothered by it as much while his hands massage the meat on Hanamakiâs thighs. Hanamaki is more bothered by it, seeing as he lets out soft moans while his teeth bite on one hand and his other curls into Matsukawaâs hair. Whines come from him as his back arches, feeling Matsukawaâs tongue lap at the side of his cock, only to then take him all back into his mouth.
While Hanamaki is busy moaning and trying to not finish so quickly, Matsukawa digs into his drawer and takes out a large bottle of lube. Its top is easy to remove without needing to see, Matsukawa slipping a couple of fingers into the cool liquid before rubbing those fingers against Hanamakiâs puckered hole. The cool sensation has Hanamaki gasping, hand moving from his mouth to grasp at the edge of the desk while his other tightens itâs hold on Matsukawaâs hair. With some more lube applied, Matsukawa slides in one of his fingers while his tongue swirls around Hanamakiâs tip. The sensations all together has Hanamaki seeing stars, a sweet mewl as he finally finishes, right into Matsukawaâs mouth.
Through his pants, Hanamaki manages to give a small apology to Matsukawa, who wipes some excess cum off his lips before licking it, locking eyes with Hanamaki as he does. He also doesnât stop fingering Hanamaki, moving his finger in and out of him while he continues to whine from the sensations. Taking his finger out, Matsukawa applies some more lube to his fingers and pushes in two at the same time, soon adding three while Hanamaki gasps and moans, hands latching onto Matsukawaâs covered shoulders.
Once Matsukawa has deemed him ready enough, Hanamaki feels his fingers leaving while he craves more. Wiping off his fingers with a nearby handkerchief, Matsukawa then finally unbuttons his shirt and tosses it to the side, letting Hanamaki see all the muscles underneath. Despite not seeming very strong, Matsukawa had plenty of defined muscles that flexed as he stripped himself of his shirt, as well as moving to unbuckle his belt and unzip himself. Hanamaki couldnât wait to feel those muscles under his own fingertips.
Once free of his boxers, Matsukawa applies a generous amount of lube to his cock while Hanamaki practically trembles with excitement. The sheer size of Matsukawa makes him wonder if itâll actually fit, seeing as three fingers canât compare to the size, but heâs always been up for a challenge. As Matsukawa lines himself up, he takes Hanamakiâs chin in his fingers one last time. âI want you to look at me while I corrupt you. Can you do that for me, Hiro?â
With such an affectionate name, Hanamaki is blushing while nodding his head, completely transfixed on Matsukawa as he slides his cock in. Itâs painful, the lube only helping to ease the pain a bit and Hanamaki screws his eyes shut for a moment, only to reopen them as the grip on his chin gets tighter. âI said eyes on me,â Matsukawa practically growled, eyes darkened as he focused his eyes on him once more. Hanamaki doesnât dare break the eye contact again, even as he desperately wants to throw his head back or roll his eyes back when Matsukawa finally bottoms out. Stretched beyond his limits, Hanamaki is finally able to lay back on the desk when Matsukawa gives him a kiss, short and sweet, letting his face go afterwards. âHow do you feel?â
âFull,â Hanamaki honestly says, moving his hips a bit as he softly mewls, âvery full.â
âGood enough for me,â Matsukawa says, rearing his hips back before slamming into Hanamaki. He practically yelps from the force of Matsukawaâs thrust, his ass jiggling from the impact. His reaction pleases Matsukawa who simply keeps up the force behind each thrusts, hands planted on either side of Hanamaki as he looks down at the man, enjoying each facial expression that comes across his face. Hanamaki reaches up to grab Matsukawa, bringing him closer as his blunt nails dig into his defined back. Matsukawa groans at the feeling of Hanamaki trying to mark him up, pressing his lips to his neck while his hips never stutter. One of his hands move down to lift up Hanamakiâs leg, holding his leg in the crook of his elbow as it dangles behind him. The adjusted position has him hitting deeper inside and rubbing against Hanamakiâs prostate with each thrust. Sucking a hickey onto his skin, Matsukawa feels Hanamaki tremble under him as warm liquid coats the front of his chest.
Matsukawa slows down his thrusts while Hanamaki finishes his second orgasm, cock bouncing as it gushes out the last bit of cum. Hanamaki looks exhausted, but Matsukawa isnât quite done. Removing himself has Hanamaki confused, only for a moment, before heâs picking him up and swiftly placing him in his lap, back on his cock. âYouâre still so fucking hard,â Hanamaki whines, feeling Matsukawaâs cock rubbing against his prostate again.
âWell, Iâve been told I have quite the stamina. Iâll let you take a break once Iâve had my own release, how about that?â Matsukawa says, although his silky words are mixed with soft pants, using up some of his energy to fuck. Matsukawa spreads Hanamakiâs legs, his hands trailing up thick thighs until heâs able to get a good grip, having Hanamaki bounce on his lap. Hanamaki tries to help, positioning his hands on the arms of the chair to stabilize himself, but soon finds his arms are too weak to hold up even half of his weight. Matsukawa does all the work while Hanamaki brushes his fingers through his hair, almost encouraging Matsukawaâs lips to press against the other side of his neck, adorning the skin with kisses and hickeys.
When Matsukawaâs thrusts start to get weak, he stops moving Hanamaki and groans, getting up from the chair without disconnecting him and Hanamaki. Bending Hanamaki over the desk, theyâre both finishing together as Matsukawa rubs Hanamakiâs hardened cock with his hand. Hanamaki moans as he feels Matsukawa fill him up with his seed, only to give an open-mouthed moan when he feels him leave, his winking hole gushing with seed spent.
Hanamaki sees Matsukawa zip himself up and put on his shirt, thinking heâll have to clean himself up. However, heâs pleasantly surprised when Matsukawaâs hand is gently pushed against his back while a warm and wet towel is cleaning up his mess. âI think I was a bit too harsh on you, sorry,â Matsukawa finally says, breaking the silence as he finishes cleaning up everything. Hanamaki doesnât respond very well, his mind too hazy and body too numb to really process whatâs going on. âHanamaki, hello?â Is the last thing he hears before he shuts his eyes for the rest of the night.

the list : d.d
brief summary: you grew up with david, and he always wanted there to be more than just friendship between you both. however, now adults and david is dating someone else, you coming back into his life causes him to have doubts about what he wants. (1.8k)
requested: yes by the sweetest anon, i hope you like the outcome! warnings: none that iâm aware ofÂ
all my links
(everything on my blog is my own writing. if it is shared on another page or website know it hasnât been approved me unless specified. all rights reserved. - i have to start doing this as I had some shit on my other blog with plagiarism)
DO NOT STEAL MY WORK - IT IS ALL MY OWN WRITING
âAre you sure you donât want anything?â You call out as you gather your things in the kitchen, your back turned to the guys as David sighs quietly to himself.
Ilya canât help but roll his eyes at Davidâs lovesick expression that remains plastered across his face whenever youâre around. âDave,â Ilya slaps his chest, causing David to snap out of his trance.
âNo!â David blurts out, and you turn around quickly.
âOkay,â You nervously chuckle, thinking nothing of it as you head towards the front door. âIâll see you later.â
With that, you close the door behind you, and David groans loudly as he buries his face into his hands whilst Ilya and Zane share a knowing look.
âDude, you gotta get it together.â Ilya states as David shakes his head in his hands. âItâs only Y/n, weâve known her since High School.â
âThatâs the problem,â David mumbles. âitâs Y/n.â
It was true, David had known you for many years but for at least half of them he was sort of (most definitely) in love with you whilst you remained oblivious to it. He grew up alongside you as you had boyfriends, was the shoulder for you to cry on after a breakup and one of your best friends. Yet, David always wished he couldâve been something more.
There had been moments between you both, flickers of something more than just friendship, but nothing came of them.
Yet, David had moved on and was happy. At least, he thinks heâs happy until you walk into any room heâs in with your bright smile and joyful laughter; before he realises Davidâs back in High school, pining after his best friend.
âLook, David, you have a girlfriend.â Zane states, knowing Taylor is out of town currently. âYou canât be drooling over Y/n like this.â
âI know, I just,â David sighs as he thinks of you, knowing he should think of Taylor in that way. âwhenever sheâs around I just forget any other girl exists, and I just want to be with her.â
Ilya rolls his eyes once more. âGod you need help.â He mutters as he rises to his feet, clapping his hands together as both David and Zane look up.
âWhat are you talking about?â Natalie speaks up as she walks through into the open space with Todd by her side.
âAbout David and Y/n.â Zane motions to David who simply shrugs his shoulders meekly at Natalieâs raised brow.
âShe finally tell you then?â Todd smiles brightly, unaware of Natalieâs eyes widening. âWhyâre you all looking at me like that?â Todd asks as wide eyes stare at him from across the room. âOh no.â He mutters.
âOh no is right.â Natalie remarks.
âY/n likes David?â Ilya asks, sounding astounded by the idea as he looks over at David and back to Natalie. âYou sure?â
Natalie sighs before nodding. âShe has for a while now,â Natalie starts, and David falls back down into the sofa, his mind dazing over in shock as Natalie continues. âbut then David started dating Taylor, so she felt like her chance was gone.â
âOkay,â Ilya begins pacing around the room. âso, Y/n likes David, David likes Y/n, but David also likes Taylor.â
âThank you Captain Obvious.â Natalie mutters. âLook, David, you gotta sort this.â
âBut how?â David asks weakly as he looks around at his friends before Ilyaâs face lights up.
âIâve got an idea.â Ilya smirks as he rushes out of the room, returning with the portable whiteboard. âWe make a pros and cons list.â He suggests, ignoring Natalie shaking her head.
âIlya, that is a terrible idea.â She tells him, but Ilya chalks it up on the board instead.
âActually, it might not be that bad.â David comments, now standing up as he approaches the whiteboard and twiddles the pen in his fingertips as he eyes the pros and cons list. âIf I can think of more cons, then Iâll know she isnât right for me and Taylor is.â
âYour logic is so fucked.â Todd looks down to Natalie who remains silent, hoping that something will come of this for everyoneâs sake.
*
Exhaling deeply, David stands back as he admires the board completely covered in the pros and cons of possibly dating you. âI never realised there could be so many.â David half laughs, now feeling more conflicted than ever before.
âYeah, this is way harder than I anticipated.â Ilya comments, resting his hands on his hips. âAnyway, wanna order food?â
David nods as he walks out from the room, going to grab his phone whilst Ilya heads into the bathroom.
Both remain unaware as the front door opens, and you walk in with bags in hand. âGod, it was crazy out there.â You huff, placing the bags on the kitchen counter. âEven though you said you didnât want anything, I got you guys Starbucks!â You call out, picking up your drink as you notice the whiteboard out and covered in writing.
You canât help but be intrigued by the board, and as you read over it, your heart drops. The board is about you, your pros and cons in Davidâs eyes.
âY/n,â Ilya speaks up softly, emerging from the bathroom as he sees you standing there, trying to force back tears in your eyes as you remain still, gaze fixated on the board. âI can explain, we can explain.â Ilya starts, but you hold your hand up, silencing him.
âIlya, I ordered pizza from-â Davidâs voice becomes closer until heâs stood metres from you and his smile drops instantly. âShit.â He mutters. âY/n, I, you werenât supposed to see this.â
A light scoff leaves your lips as you step backwards, glaring to David. âGee, I wonder why.â You retort. âYouâre unbelievable David.â Your voice softens as you turn around, grabbing your bags from the counter and leave without saying another word, too afraid of your own voice and what will be said.
âFuck!â David yells, gripping his hair in his fists as he groans loudly. âHow could you do this to me, Ilya?!â David shifts the blame to Ilya who stares, utterly dumbfounded.
âI wasnât the one who wrote the fucking list, David.â Ilya reminds David. âYou gotta talk to her, man.â
âI,â David starts, but Ilya stops him.
âNo, I mean right now.â Ilya states firmly, pointing to the front door. âGo, you idiot!â
Without needing to be told a third time, David jogs over to his front door, opening it and thankfully, youâre still loading your shopping back into the car as you wipe your eyes repeatedly.
âWhat, David? You wanna tell me about my pros and cons?â You speak up, slamming your boot shut as you near your car door.
âNo, I, I wanna explain, as it wasnât fair you saw that. It wasnât something you should ever have seen really.â David begins to try and explain, but seeing you so upset, it causes his mind to fall apart. âY/n, I, I know weâve always been friends, and Iâve always cared about you- which you knew already.â
âThought I did.â You mumble to yourself, causing your heart to ache even more.
âBut I gave up the possibility of us ever being together a while ago, and then I met Taylor.â David tries to sound happy about his relationship, that itâs a good thing that he moved on. âBefore I knew it I was swept up in this new relationship, and then you came back from your trip, and my feelings kinda dug themselves back up and youâre all I can think about.â He half laughs, realising how ridiculous it all sounds.
âDavid, donât, please.â You tell him, now opening your car door as you lean against it, but David simply steps closer.
âY/n, I canât help how I feel about you, and I know you feel the same.â A nervous smile crosses his lips as you stare blankly at him. âTodd told us, and thatâs kinda what caused all this. We were trying to figure a way of trying to decide if we should date, and it was so fucking dumb as I already know you, and I know youâre close enough to perfect.â David laughs light-heartedly. âAnd Iâm so sorry I hurt you Y/n, just please, give me a chance?â
Silence falls between you both as you remain lost in thought. And then, you break it as you exhale quietly. âYouâve got Taylor, David. I canât do that to her.â You force a small smile, ignoring the tears that fall down your cheeks. âMaybe we just werenât to ever be.â You chuckle, forcing back pain in your voice as you climb into your car.
âTaylor broke up with me.â David blurts out, just as youâre about to close your car door.
âWhat?â You ask, staring up at him as he stands in front of your door.
Lowering his gaze, David tries to keep himself composed. âShe broke up with me before she left. She knew something wasnât right  between us and didnât want it to carry on and get messy.â
âWhy didnât you tell anyone?â You canât help but ponder over why he never spoke up, listening along with stories as you all sat together in his house and would leave to speak with her. âWhy didnât you tell me?â
âBecause all I want to do is kiss you, Y/n.â David admits. âI want to be there with you in the mornings, make breakfast or try to at least. Sing shitty songs in the car and film dumb TikTok's together. I just wanna be beside you, and finally, let myself love you after all these years.â David confesses, feeling a weight lifting off his heart as he finally looks at you, seeing you focusing back at him.
âWow.â You breathe out, now rising to your feet as you move past your car door, closing it as you stand in front of David. âYou actually love me?â
David laughs quietly. âI think I always have, weird right?â
âSuper weird.â You chuckle. âBut kinda cool, cause I think Iâve always loved you too.â
âOh,â David stumbles over his thoughts, as you lift your hand up, resting it on his shoulder. âthatâs pretty cool. So er, what now?â He asks.
Running your hand along his shoulder, you move your fingers across to the back of his neck. âThis is usually the part where you kiss me.â You mutter, smiling shyly to him as he nods.
âI think I can do that.â He whispers before resting his arm around your waist, tugging you closer into his embrace as his lips ghost yours. âI love you.â He breathes out as his lips part.
âI love you too.â You mumble back, finally allowing yourself to open up after all these years, never thinking dreams could come true.

A Drunk Video
Rating: Teen and up
Paring: Harry Styles x fem!reader (platonic pairing only)
Word Count: 3,641
Summary: You and Harry get absolutely wasted and make a decision to make a YouTube video. It was probably a bad decision
Warnings: lots of swearing, sexual themes but theyâre all joking, WAP, small slut shaming
A/N: listen this was a fic I wrote aggggges ago. I just suddenly remembered it and wanted to share my sins with the masses. Iâm not going to apologise for doing whatâs RIGHT.
You hummed as you trotted up the stairs of the very modern apartment building. The grey walls were spotless and the bright white lights hung low.
You furrowed your eyebrows as you stepped onto the fourteenth floor landing. Why the hell did Harry even have an apartment? He was rich enough to buy a mansion. You contemplated this as you moved along the hall. Looking for the familiar 1402.
You smirked to yourself and knocked on the door. A few moments passed and the door swung open revealing the rock star himself. Harryâs Los Angeles apartment was very sleek. Harry in plaid pajama bottoms, a black jumper, and fuzzy socks, was not.
âWell someone looks comfortable for four pm.â You teased as he smiled at you. He nodded and opened the door wider to let his friend in.
âHad a rough night so I just wanted to be comfortable.â He said running a hand through his hair. You watched him out of the corner of your eye, not wanting to openly stare.
âRough night hmm?â You teased again, a grin on your face. Harry rolled his eyes and nudged your shoulder.
âI mightâve binge watched that show you like. The entire show.â Harry mumbled as he fell on his couch. You snickered as you slid down next to him. Harry groaned and moved so his head was on your smaller shoulder.
âYou binge watched Sherlock in one day? Iâm impressed.â You laughed out as you ran your hand through his messy hair. Harry nuzzled more into you, trying to feel more of you scratch his head.
âBenedict Cumberbatch is.â Harry moved away slightly to put his hand in the air. He made the âokayâ sign and you laughed.
âThat he is.â You nodded as Harry settled back down onto you. You two laid like that for a few minutes. You absentmindedly twirling and scratching Harryâs hair as you stared out of the giant windows making up his far wall. The busy Los Angeles evening greeted your site. It was comfortable.
âYou want to order some food?â Harry spoke, his voice completely muffled by your shoulder. You smiled down at him. You were sure that if anyone could see you, they could tell how much you cared for the man. It wasnât a romantic adoration, just true love for another person without expectations or further meanings. You just simply loved him.
âIf you want. Pizza?â You asked, making you feel Harryâs smile press into you. He shifted so his head was lying on your lap. Harry stared up at you before closing his eyes peacefully.
âRead my mind.â He hummed as you ran a hand through his thick hair again. You smiled softly and brought your phone out of your pocket. You two ordered a pizza each and remained cuddled up until the doorbell rang.
Harry sighed and untangled himself from your lap. He padded over to the door as he ruffled his hair, trying to get it to appear less flat. He opened the door and greeted the delivery man with a smile.
You picked at the threads of your ripped jeans and flowed into the kitchen. As Harry was talking, you grabbed some plates and cups and brought them to Harryâs small glass table.
âWe should film something for your channel.â Harry said as he closed the door behind him, the boxes being clutched in his arms. You smiled at him and nodded. You always felt a little guilty whenever you featured Harry on your channel. You never wanted for him to feel as if you were clout chasing. You were friends with him before you became big on YouTube and you wanted him to remember that.
âYeah, we could sing some songs. Make it stupid.â You mused propping your chin on your hand. Harry smiled as you, dimples popping. He served you a slice and sat next to you in his seat.
âMake it stupid.â He agreed. The two always made sure that if they were going to post something, it had to be for laughs. Anything serious between you two was unheard of.
You had been a part of the Eroda music video. You had actually helped direct it. You and Harry had been drunk in Peru when the thought struck you both, and it was a collaborate idiotic idea that created the music video. To say that a few months later, you were dressed with weird hair as Harry sang to a fish, was serious? Absolutely not. You two just wanted to make something stupid. And you both fully succeeded.
As you two ate, you brainstormed on what you were going to sing. With a few glasses of wine in your stomachs, you had both equally bad ideas.
âFuck.â You hissed as you accidentally spilled your wine on your clothes. Harry giggled as he eased the glass out of your hands.
âI think you drank too much,â He smiled and you couldnât help but smile back. âIâll go get you some clothes. You probably have some here anyway.â
You tried to dab the wine off you, but rolled your eyes. It was pointless. As you started to drum on the table, Harry chucked some clothes at your back. Your mouth opened in shock and you flipped him off.
You just pulled your shirt off and put a loose grey shirt then your short shorts on. Your usual go-to sleep clothes. You didnât really care that you were changing in front of Harry. Lord knows you were comfortable enough with each other to see each other in your underwear. You looked up and Harry wiggled his eyebrows at you.
âLetâs get this show on the road then, pop star.â You giggled as you leaned over and ruffled his hair. Harry looked at you lazily and watched you with half closed eyes. You wiped your hands on your shorts and set up your camera, focusing it on the two couches by Harryâs TV.
âLooks like weâre filming a porno.â Harry snickered, a wide smile on his face as he wiped his eyes. You smiled at him and flipped him off.
âYou wish.â You sang as you put your laptop on his kitchen counter. You leaned forward and began typing with a smirk on your face.
âImagine if we did have sex though.â Harry said. You furrowed your eyebrows and turned to look at him over your shoulder.
âBoy, I love you, but you are not touching me. Especially when weâre both drunk.â You said with a slight grimace. Harry pouted and leaned back in his chair.
âYou take the fun out of everything.â He giggled and leaned his elbows on his table. He continued to watch you and a big smile spread over your face suddenly. You looked over at him with an evil glint in your eyes and Harry gulped. He especially didnât like it when you gave him that look. The last time you turned to him with the evil eye, Harry had been convinced to be strapped onto a helicopter for the Sign of the Times music video as you laughed from behind the camera.
Little did Harry know you had picked a song conviently called Harry by Kelsey Karter. Kelsey wrote the song about your friend here. She posted a picture on Instagram with a tattoo of Harry on her cheek promoting the song. You had found it when the picture came out and it was honestly a banger. You also adored that Kelsey did it all for a publicity stunt and the tattoo wasnât even real. Genius.
âCome to the couch H.â You teased as you hit record on your camera. Harry narrowed his eyes at you and fell over the back of his couch and laid down long ways.
Harry watched as you said your intro a few times. You kept stumbling over your words in your intoxicated state and that for whatever reason made Harry giggle. You flipped him off and smiled at the camera sweetly.
âThis is my friend Harry,â Harry smiled, his dimples popping as he waved to the camera. He slouched down in his comfortable clothes, matching your attire. He was sure that once this video aired he was going to be clowned for how domestic you both looked, but he didnât care. The sight of you two so content and in a state of bliss was very rare. You scrunched your nose at him. Something he returned happily.
âWeâre going to sing you some songs, if you like. Harry, you want to go first?â You asked him as you cocked your head to the side. Harry tapped his chin in mock thought and shook his head.
âYour channel, you can go first.â He said, his voice drawing out slowly. You smirked and nodded.
âIâd like to just say that me and Harry are both pretty drunk. Also we were talking about porn earlier so there is slight context to why Iâm doing this.â Harry put his head in his hands and groaned. He knew that you were carefree enough to be okay with putting that on the Internet and he just had to accept that. And be prepared to put twitter on silent.
You walked over to Harryâs kitchen counter. Your laptop was opened and shining brightly in the slightly dim room. You tapped on it, making sure to keep it from the camera and Harryâs pryful eyes.
You smirked as the music started and fluffed your hair as you walked over to Harry. You tugged him to sit up on the couch and began to sing.
âI blacked out, passed out, first time we met. It wasn't drugs, could be love, but it's probably sex.â You sat on the couch next to him and at âsexâ you put a hand on his thigh. Harry raised his eyebrows at you as you smiled and continued to sing along with the recording.
âCool stare, greased hair curled around your eye. I wanna take a dirty picture, send it to your mind, I'm not just thinkin' 'bout you.â You ran your hand through his hair again and Harry smiled a little wider. You moved your hand down to his neck and ran it down to his chest.
âI'll treat you better than the girls you're hangin' out with. Take you to heaven and I'll show you all around it. I'll never ever let you down. Ooh.â You moved off the couch and circled to the back. Wrapping your arms around his neck and leaned down and sang into his ear. You blew in it making Harry giggle as a drunk flush came over his features.
âHarry. I'm gonna make you love me, youâre gonna make me breakfast. It's a secret just between us we can keep it low-key. I ain't being funny, you should be so lucky to put your, put your velvet arms around me.â You fell over the back of the couch like Harry did earlier. But this time you put your legs around his waist as you made him wrap his arms around your shoulders. Harry laughed at this and bobbed his head to the music, showing to you and the camera that he didnât care for your sexual intentions just as much as he knew you didnât care to really make it sexual.
âI'm g-g-g-g-gonna make you love me.â You sang and they both tried to not burst out laughing.
âYeah, I'm staring at you in the magazines every day. Feel like I'm seventeen never been touched this way. I'm thinking 'bout you.â You rolled off him to sit on his coffee table. With idiotic acting you crossed your legs and pulled up one of the magazines that was laying there. You gazed over the top of it with a smirk and Harry wiggled his fingers in a wave.
âI'll treat you better than the boys you're hangin' out with.â You bit your lip and leaned back on the coffee table. You knew you looked like an idiot, but that was the point.
âTake you to heaven and I'll show you all around it. I'll never ever let you down. Ooh Harry.â You rotated your head like a snake charmer and at the beat dropped, you sunk to your knees in front of Harry. He laughed and spread his legs so he could look at you.
âI'm gonna make you love me. You're gonna make me breakfast. It's a secret just between us we can keep it low-key. I ain't being funny. You should be so lucky to put your, put your velvet arms around me.â You tried not to laugh as you stood up and started to dance âeroticallyâ. Harry leaned back and pretended to make it rain on you.
âOh, Harry, Harry. Mmmm, Harry.â You got back on the floor and crawled the short distance to the couch. Making sure to overemphasize your shoulder blades moving.
âOh, baby, I'm gonna make you love me. Yeah. So put your, put your, put your arms around me.â You sat next to Harry and pushed him to lay down. As you hit the end of the lyrics you laid across his body as Harry laughed obnoxiously.
âI'm gonna, I'm gonna. Gonna, gonna make you love me. Harry!â You sat up and started to twerk horribly on him making Harry cover his face with his arm and he tried not to cry laughing. You made your voice crack on the last note of the song and Harry couldnât help himself. He tackled you off the couch as you doubled over laughing.
âAre you trying to get me hard in front of all of these people?â Harry joked hovering over you. You snickered and looked behind you at the camera. You caught your breath and nodded at Harry with a grin to match his.
âMmhm.â
âWell it didnât work so thatâs embarrassing for you.â Your jaw dropped in mock offense and Harry narrowed his eyes at you. You both stared at each other in silence for a few seconds before Harry lost it and you both started laughing again. Harry rolled off you, still giggling.
âSo that was Harry by Kelsey Karter. I actually showed this song to Harry. We both had a very entertaining time.â You said, popping up to talk to the camera. Harry put his head on your shoulder and smiled.
âMy song is a lot less suggestive. Because this is a family show,â Harry cut you off and you covered your face with your hand. A bright smile spread across your face. Harry leaned forward to look at you.
âOr is itttttt?â You both said and were sent into a new fit of drunken hysterics.
âIf you could take that seat there,â Harry said as he pulled you back onto the couch that he was sitting in earlier. He skipped over to your laptop and began typing.
âGet ready to get your panties wet.â He said loudly, making you laugh. You knew you were going to have to edit that out but for now you just laughed at Harryâs brash, drunk personality.
He cleared his throat and clicked play on you laptop. Your mouth dropped. He was not doing this on camera for potentially millions to see. Holy shit.
âWhores in this house. There's some whores in this house.â
You covered your mouth as Harry moved around and danced like a weirdo. He started doing the robot and you leaned your head back in a cackle. You were so fucking glad you were filming this.
âI said certified freak, sevenâ
days a week. Wet-ass pussy, make that pullout game weak!â Harry rapped out choppily and started dancing again. You watched him make up horrible moves and he started doing the dance routine One Direction always did which made you almost jump out of your seat.
âPut this pussy right in your face. Swipe your nose like a credit card. Hop on top, I wanna ride I do a kegel while it's inside. Spit in my mouth, look in my eyes. This pussy is wet, come take a dive. Tie me up like I'm surprised. Let's role play, I'll wear a disguise.â Harry rapped, gaining more of a flow the longer he rapped. You were surprised at how well he knew the lyrics. He spun around his living room and you laughed again.
âI want you to park that big Mack truck right in this little garage.â He yelled, dropping to his knees. You shoved a pillow over your face to keep from screaming as tears of laughter rolled down your face.
âGobble me, swallow me, drip down the side of me. Quick, jump out 'fore you let it get inside of me. I tell him where to put it, never tell him where I'm 'bout to be. I'll run down on him 'fore I have a n**** running me. Talk your shit, bite your lip.â Harry spit out. He put his hand over his mouth when the n word came up and then he slid forward grabbing your hand. He put it to his heart as he rapped.
âNow get your boots and your coat for this wet-ass pussy. He bought a phone just for pictures of this wet-ass pussy. Pay my tuition just to kiss me on this wet-ass pussy. Now make it rain if you wanna see some wet-ass pussy.â Harry winked and lay on the coffee table with his arm propping his head up as he laid down.
âLook, I need a hard hitter, I need a deep stroker. I need a Henny drinker, I need a weed smoker. Not a garden snake, I need a king cobra with a hook in it, hope it lean over.â He pointed at you and your smile widened as you wiggled your shoulders and mouthed out âYassâ.
âI don't wanna spit, I wanna gulp. I wanna gag, I wanna choke. I want you to touch that lil' dangly thing that swing in the back of my throat.â At this Harry slid off the table and brought you to stand with him. He moved around and horribly tried to ballroom dance as you laughed so hard you could barely hear the blaring music of Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion.
âYour honor, I'm a freak bitch, handcuffs, leashes. Switch my wig, make him feel like he cheating. Put him on his knees, give him something to believe in. Never lost a fight, but I'm looking for a beating.â Harry twirled you out of his arms and punched the air to the sound effect of the fighting bell. You were feeling inspired and started to twerk like Tina Belcher. Harry tried so hard to not laugh, he almost stopped rapping.
âIn the food chain, I'm the one that eat ya. If he ate my ass, he's a bottom feeder. Big D stand for big demeanor. I could make you bust before I ever meet ya.â Harry spun you around and winked obnoxiously.
He dipped you and you pushed him off as you fell to the ground. Your laughter took over you. You did not expect him to rap about getting rimmed, but you were so glad you were recording.
âIf he fuck me and ask, "Whose is it?" When I ride the dick, I'ma spell my name. Ah.â You couldnât help yourself and you started rapping along with him.
Harry jumped on his couch and pulled you up with him. You both just jumped around and laughed as the music continued to play.
âBring a bucket and a mop for this wet-ass pussy.â Harry wiggled his shoulders like âthe wobbleâ as he slowly snuck to his knees on the couch.
âNow from the top, make it drop. That's some wet-ass pussy.â At this, Harry grabbed the back of your knees and pulled them to him. You shrieked as you fell on his body and you both laughed as you fell onto the couch.
âI'm talking WAP, WAP, WAP.â You couldnât help but shout this with Harry and you rolled off him and onto the floor.
You propped your chin on the couch as he circled it and stood behind it. With his hands on the back he leaned down so you were a few inches apart.
âThat's some wet-ass pussy. Macaroni in a pot.â he whispered leaning way to close to you. You fell back and hit the coffee table with a bang. You clutched your elbow in pain, but kept laughing at him. Harry couldnât help himself and as the song finished up. He just doubled over the couch and cracked up.
The song started over, but you both were too far gone from laughing to pay attention. Harryâs apartment was full of laughter as your faces went red and you gasped for breath.
âHarry oh my god!â You shrieked and threw a pillow at him. He slapped his thigh and as he giggled.
âWeâre making ourselves appear as a pair of sluts.â You said and pushed off the couch to stand up. Harry giggled and nodded.
âLess suggestive my ass.â You teased with a smirk and Harry snickered.
âYup!â He exclaimed. Harry hopped over the back of his couch to sit down as he tried to regain his breathing. You moved to sit next to him. You were both flushed with big smiles and you waved at the camera.
âBye!â You yelled and Harry waved too. You moved to turn the camera off and you plopped back onto the couch.
âWhat the fuck even was that video?!â You exclaimed and Harry smiled at you and shrugged.
âJust say weâre drunk. Then everything makes sense.â He said, throwing an arm around your shoulders. You nodded and covered your face with your hands. You knew this was going to break the internet and honestly you couldnât wait.

Intertwined (Poly!DoyoungxKun xHaechanxJungwoo)
pairing: kun x doyoung x jungwoo x haechan x reader (gender neutral)
words: 1.9k
genre: pure fluff, established relationship, poly!au
request: poly!nct (kun, doyoung, jungwoo, haechan, reader) fluff
summary: doyoung isnât really one for coupleâs/partnerâs items, but he treats his significant others to one that will work for them.
A/N: this was such a challenge to write because this is such a different group of members. it was super fun and i hope you all enjoy
You could hear the boys loudly talking as they walked down the hallway before they entered your shared apartment. You couldnât help but grin as you tried to hear what they were talking about while you keep your eyes on the tv playing a new show youâd just gotten into. Once the door opened, their voices were significantly louder, continuing their debate.
âY/N!â Jungwoo called, running to your spot once he got his shoes off. He tackled you in a tight hug, pushing you onto your side. âI missed you,â heâd comment, kissing the side of your head.
âWe missed you too,â Haechan pouted, trying to get involved in the cuddling mess before him.
âGive Y/N some room you two,â Kun commanded from across the room, fixing their shoes and picking up their thrown jackets and bags.
âItâs okay Kun,â you replied, your heart full from seeing your boyfriends for the first time in a couple days. Theyâd been busy with some meetings to discuss comeback plans and the possibility of a new subunit debuting soon. âWhereâs Doyoung?â
âHe had to go pick up something quick. He said heâll be home soon,â Kun replied, finally feeling content with how the entryway looked. He made his way over to you three on the couch, his smile ever-present as he finally took you in. Haechan had finally made Jungwoo move so he could join you at your other side. Both boys did their best to pull you closer to them, each resting their heads on your shoulders.
âHe went by himself?â you asked softly, looking towards Kun, who took a seat across from you.
Jungwoo nodded, âhe said it was a secret so we couldnât go with him.â His voice was quiet as he snuggled into the crook of your neck.
âDid you eat yet, Y/N?â Haechan asked, his finger drawing lazy shapes on your thigh.
âYeah, I got some pizza earlier.â Jungwoo immediately moved his head away from you and pouted. You smiled, âThereâs some leftovers in the fridge for you Jungwoo.â
He grinned and rushed to the kitchen to grab a couple of slices. Kun took the chance to kiss your forehead while Jungwoo was distracted. He also ruffled Haechanâs hair, earning a light slap to the wrist from the youngest. You giggled softly as you pet Haechanâs hair, trying to fix it for him. âYouâre so cute, Channie,â Kun cooed.
âY/N, tell Kun to leave me alone,â he mumbled beside you. You just smiled in response, holding one of Kunâs hands in your own.
âDonât cuddle without me!â Jungwoo yelled, returning from the kitchen, a small piece of sauce still in the corner of his mouth. He jumped onto the couch and returned to his spot beside you.
âYou have something on your face,â Kun mentioned, leaning over to clean it off with his hand. Jungwoo instead pulled Kun further, their faces inches from each other. Kun got the hint, licking off the sauce from his lip.
They smiled at each other, âThank you, Kun.â
âGet a room,â Haechan groaned, making the rest of you laugh.
âAre you jealous, Haechan?â Jungwoo questioned.
âY/N, make them stop,â he whined from beside you. Before you could say anything, Kun had moved in front of Haechan, his hand cupping the youngerâs chin and pulling him in for a short, soft kiss. Haechan seemed shocked after Kun pulled away, becoming silent as his face started turning red.
You glanced up at Kun expectedly, waiting for your turn. Kun just grinned in response, mirroring his previous actions with Haechan now with you. This kiss lasted a lot longer than the one between Haechan and Kun, but it remained soft and innocent and full of love. Kun smiled shyly at you as he pulled away. You smiled back in return before he moved to the couch across from you once again. A light conversation about your days started as you waited for your last boyfriend to return home.
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
âIâm home,â Doyoung sang as he closed the front door behind him, kicking his shoes off. Three bags hung from his arms, two filled with food and one with his surprise. The surprise that had caused his chest to tighten for most of the day and only just got worse as he walked home from the store.
âDoyoung!â Jungwoo yelled, removing himself from his spot beside you to run-up to the older man like an excited puppy. He reached to grab the bags in his arms, only for them to be pulled away from him.
âI still have a surprise. I donât want you to ruin it,â Doyoung explained once he saw Jungwooâs small pout. Jungwoo nodded, trudging back to his spot on the couch. Doyoung followed after setting the non-food bag on the table near the door. âI brought some snacks and drinks.â
âYou didnât have to do that,â you started as he handed you a bottle of your favorite soda.
âBut I wanted to,â he continued, passing the other men their respective drinks and snacks.
âIs this your surprise?â Kun questioned, opening his can.
âIf this was my surprise, donât you think I wouldâve let you guys come with me?â Doyoung responded with a small smirk. âIâll go grab the real surprise,â he said, setting his drink on the coffee table.
Once he returned with the bag, he instructed you all to sit on the couch. Kun sat next to Jungwoo while Haechan and Jungwoo sat up more. âOkay, close your eyes. No peaking.â
Doyoung grabbed one box from the bag and quickly opened it, hooking the chain around his neck. His smile was ever-present as he adjusted the necklace. âHold your hands out please. Do not open your eyes until I say so.â You all nodded at him, each of your patience running out as time moved on. He placed one small box into each of your open palms, noticing how his hands shook from anxiety awaiting your reactions.
âI think I know what this is,â Haechan teased, feeling the box with one of his hands.
âHaechan, I will take your back.â Doyoung replied, just as teasingly but featuring a hint of truth. Haechan stopped, moving both his hands to hold the box like he was initially instructed. âOkay, you can all open your eyes and open your gift.â
Doyoungâs breath hitched in his chest as he observed each of your reactions. You all opened the box at the same time, in sync with each other from years of being together. You gasped as you took in the piece of jewelry, right hand moving to cover your gaping mouth. âDoyoung...â You let slip out quietly. Your other boyfriends had smiles on their faces as they also processed their matching gifts.
âDo you like it?â You nodded quickly, not trusting your voice at the moment. Your right hand moved from your mouth to take the necklace out of its safe box. The necklace had five rings intertwined with each other, each ring alternating between black and white.
âDoyoung, this is so sweet,â Kun spoke first, his eyes sparkling with love.
âHow did you get these?â Jungwoo moved to clasp the chain around his own neck after seeing the chain dangling from Doyoungâs own neck.
âI know a guy,â he answered nonchalantly, a giant grin plastered on his face. Kun and Haechan had started clasping their respective chains on their own necks. âDo you want help, Y/N?â Doyoung asked softly, his eyes filled with worry as he watched you nearly freezing up while staring at the rings. You were taken out of your daydream from his voice, only responding with a small nod.
He came up behind the couch, taking the necklace from your hands gently to clasp it around your neck for you. You couldnât help but lightly touch the rings as they rested below your collarbones. Once it was secured, he leaned down a placed a couple of soft kisses on your head. Haechan and Jungwoo whined at the affection, causing Doyoung to chuckle and place kisses on both of their heads as well.
âI thought you didnât like couple items,â you finally stated, waiting for Doyoung to return to his spot in front of you all.
He sat on the coffee table, resting his elbows and forearms on his thighs and leaning forward, âI usually donât. Itâs risky to have couple items and getting caught by fans or paparazzi wearing them. But I saw a couple with a similar necklace and I really liked it. Itâs very subtle and can be hidden under our shirts or jackets so itâs a little safer. I searched for a place that would custom make us versions with five rings instead of two. It took a while, but they finally finished them today.â
âAw, Doyoung is a sappy romantic,â Haechan teased, getting up and hugging Doyoung tightly. You giggled along with Jungwoo and Kun, all three of you joining the hug. While you rarely did group hugs like this, the love in the air was palpable.
âI love you guys,â you mumbled, slowly starting to part from the group because of the radiating heat of your boyfriends being so close.
âWe love you too,â Kun replied, also pulling away. After a few more seconds, the hug was over, Doyoung finally being free of Haechanâs tight grip.
âAnd just because itâs subtle doesnât mean you donât still need to be careful,â Doyoung started, looking between Jungwoo, Haechan, and Kun. âRemember to keep it hidden when you can. We donât want to deal with another lecture from staff do we?â He asked rhetorically. The three boys nodded almost automatically.
âI think we can handle it,â Jungwoo commented confidently. Doyoung nearly shot him a glare but stopped himself.
âBetter safe than sorry,â he mumbled. âIâm glad you liked them,â his smile returning once again.
âThank you, Doyoungie,â you started, the rest of the boys following suit with their own thankful messages.
Just as you felt Jungwoo start leaning into you, his first sign of cuddling, you removed yourself from the couch. You could nearly feel Jungwooâs pout and puppy-like eyes following your every move, but you kept going. Reaching for Kun and Doyoungâs hands, you led them to the other couch across from the one you were just on. You decided to sit on Doyoungâs lap while resting your legs across Kunâs and hugging Doyoungâs waist to keep yourself steady.
âHey, why are you cuddling with them?â Haechan asked, his arms crossed like a child throwing a tantrum.
âHyuk, I just cuddled with you and Jungwoo since you came home. I think itâs their turn now, donât you?â You watched as both Jungwoo and Haechan shake their heads and pout before they decided to cuddle together instead. You thought they may be trying to make you jealous. Still, you were never jealous that easily, especially after being in this polyamorous relationship for so long. You returned your attention to your two oldest boyfriends, one hand playing with Doyoungâs hair and the other holding onto one of Kunâs.
All of your boyfriends sparked another conversation with each other, returning the living room to its normal, chaotic state. However, all you could think about was the necklace resting on your chest, the love it symbolized, and the comfort of being able to cuddle with each of them.

ROOMMATES âą Part 1
Divergent âą College AU âą Eric x Reader
ROOMMATES masterlist đ« Divergent masterlist
You escaped your current living situation by moving in with your friend Christina â and five other college students. Little did you know that one of them was the guy who was your ultimate pain in the neck since your first semester. Now, you had to find a way to not strangle him in his sleep out of pure frustration. Also, you had to find a way to get rid of those weird butterfly feelings for him that slowly grew in your stomach.
Words âą 2.4 k
The enemies to lovers story no one needed.
/////
It absolutely didnât take you by surprise when your moving day turned out to be the hottest day of the year in Chicago. Not one single shadow spending cloud was to be seen, the temperatures felt like standing next to an actual volcano and your so called âfriendsâ called off from helping one after one. It all got your blood boiling and made you want to throw your phone to the ground and stomp on it.
Instead you pushed it into the pocket of your pants, brushed some sweaty hair out of your face and continued unloading the first box out of the moving van you had rented.
Before you entered the building you would live in from today on, you took a good look at it. It was a rather spontaneous decision to move in. When you told your college friend, Christina, that your current living situation was very complicated, she offered you a free room in her apartment.
She was living with a lot of people. It would be eight people in total by tonight when you had moved in. For your liking, that was maybe a little bit too many roommates, but you rather took that, than live with your ex-boyfriend any longer.
You climbed up three flights of stairs and with each one the box in your hands got heavier. Knowing, that there were so many more boxes in the van that had to be brought up, made you want to sit down and have a beer already.
There was only one door on the third floor, which also appeared to be the last story of this building. That must be it. You rang the door bell and instantly heard some voices discuss about who would open the door.
A guy with some friendly eyes opened. âYou must be Y/N!â He stepped aside for you to enter the apartment. âIâm Uriah.â
âAre you on your own?â You didnât really get a proper chance to introduce yourself because Christina came rushing to Uriahâs side and gave you a brief hug, ignoring your sweaty body. She seemed truly offended by you being alone. Though, she was rather offended by your friends who werenât there to help you even though they said they would.
You just shrugged and tried to take in the surroundings of your new home. Christina already told you that the apartment covered the whole story, therefore it had a lot of rooms that sheltered a lot of people.
It was a pretty opened concept. The big kitchen space flowed over into a living area and the other way around. Around the center piece, a huge dining table, were sitting three people, chatting the afternoon away. Christina and the guy, who had introduced himself as Uriah, joined the group again. She introduced you to Will, her boyfriend who you already knew from a lot of conversations, and the second couple in this apartment: Tris and Four.
âOne roommate is missing, heâs⊠I donât know where,â said Christina and gestured for the remaining people to get up from their chairs. âAre we okay to help you with your stuff?â
She asked as if you had truly something to disagree with her offer. âYou would be my life savers,â you confessed. The help of your new roommates was genuine. The first bonding with them happened through carrying up your heavy boxes three flights of stairs, ranting over the heat and laughing about it because somehow you got along with them very well. Maybe after all the crap that had happened, this could be a good restart.
Christina offered to drive along with her car to the rental station and take you back to the apartment after dropping of the van. You didnât have a car yourself and her offer was music in your ears. After that hot day and the physical exhaustion, you really didnât want to ride your bicycle all the way from the rental place to your new home.
On your way back to the apartment, you asked Christina to stop at a pizza shop. You wanted to grab some dinner for your new roommates, and yourself, after they saved your ass with carrying your stuff all the way up to your new apartment.
When you placed the pizzas on the dining table, where everyone was still sitting at, every hesitation, if they had some at all about you moving in, was gone. Someone who brought pizza was very welcomed to move in.
Even though you were exhausted to your bones, the pizza gave you a small power boost, to continue with some more work after dinner. Before crashing on your mattress tonight, you wanted to unpack some of the stuff still. To your luck, Christina and Tris helped a little with your clothes and setting up a makeshift desk. At some point they left to go to bed. Way past midnight you felt your body giving out rapidly. You needed a shower. And sleep.
Right across from your room was the bathroom. There was still light in the hallway and you heard noises from the living area. The bathroom door was slightly open and you sleepily opened it completely to enter and shut it behind you.
The tiredness in your brain was suddenly gone when you faced a naked man getting out of the shower. You looked at him in shock and all you were able to say was: âWhat are you doing here?â
âWhat does it look like?â He didnât really hurry up to grab a towel and cover himself. There was too much time passing until a towel finally covered his lower half. Too much time for you to see, well, everything.
When the first shock subsided, you pulled yourself together, and looked at his face. This guy hadnât been there all day. Still, you knew him.
âWhat are you doing here,â you repeated your question in disbelief, this time with a small addition, though, âEric?â
âI live here. What are you doing here?â
Fuck. No. Please not. âI guess we are roommates then,â you stated in frustration.
âYou are Christinaâs friend moving in?â He grabbed a second towel to dry his hair and looked at your from a weird angle. âLifeâs just not fair to me.â
âTell me about it.â
There you were. Standing in the small bathroom of your new apartment with Eric Coulter. Who lived here as well. You contemplated going back to the rental station immediately, get a van and remove your stuff before you unpacked completely. This was a nightmare. Since starting your first semester, Eric was the pain in your neck you were constantly clashing with. Whenever you started a constructive discussion about a topic, he was the one to drive you verbally crazy. There was no debate he missed and sometimes, you thought, he had taken it a personal mission to piss you off. Because even when he had the same opinion on something, he still had to prove you otherwise.
It had been dislike at first sight.
âAre you done in here then?â
âWhy should I be?â Ericâs discipline to make life more complicated for you was nothing you could deal with right now. Not after the day you had.
âFine. Whatever,â you mumbled. Instantly, you regretted opening the bathroom door â a shower had been so necessary â but dealing with Eric right now wasnât worth it. The few steps across the hallway later, you stumbled over some of the boxes in your room, tripped and fell right on to your mattress. Grumbling, you turned around and saw Eric in the bathroom door inaudibly laughing at you. With your last energy, you slammed the door shut and collapsed back on the mattress. His stupid, grinning face was the last you had in mind before falling into a deep sleep.
/////
The next morning, after sleeping like a baby, you made sure to first take a glance into the bathroom before entering. No Eric. You locked the door, undressed and breathed out in relief when the water hit your skin. The warm water washed away all of yesterdays sweat, soaked your hair and made you feel like a human again.
The water temperature suddenly changed from hot to freezing. Hearing the toilet flush go off indicated why. You peaked out from behind the shower curtain and saw Eric readjust his boxer shorts.
âI locked the door!â You whisper-screamed at him.
Eric went to wash his hands. At least youâre washing your hands, you thought. âI had to pee.â He winked at you, left the bathroom and turned the lock into position again when he was back in the hallway. Great, not even a lock can keep him out.
With fresh clothes and still wet hair, you made your way for the kitchen. Your roommates were gathered at the huge dining table, Eric included, and had an awesome looking breakfast. It was ten on a Sunday morning, you didnât expect all of them to be up yet.
Some âgood morningsâ welcomed you and assigned you the seat right across from Eric. Of course.
âHow did you sleep?â Christina poured you a coffee and tried to add milk and sugar but you were able to fetch it from here while it was still black.
âGood,â you answered with a âthank youâ.
âThis is Eric, by the way. The roommate you didnât meet yesterday.â
Your glance went from her bright eyes to Eric, who stared at you like he had only now registered you sitting across from him. âWe had the pleasure already,â you stated and took a long sip, not breaking eye contact with him.
He was the first one to look away, which made you sink back in your chair with a winning grin on your lips.
During breakfast your roommates instructed you on how this living together worked. Who cleaned when and what, what team is when doing the weekly grocery haul and why you donât flush the toilet when someone is taking a shower. When Uriah mentioned that, you turned your head to Eric and caught his glance. He didnât seem to be impressed by your death stare.
Christina offered to help again with unpacking after breakfast. Still within the second she closed the door to your room, she popped the question. âDo you and Eric know each other?â
You groaned. âKinda,â you said as you turned to look at her. âDo you remember me constantly complaining about a guy in one of my classes whoâs always driving me crazy?â
âThatâs Eric?â Christinaâs face went blank and her jaw dropped. She flung the door open and entered, without knocking, the room next to yours â Ericâs room. You could hear his voice telling her to get out and knock the next time. Christina replied something but you couldnât understand it. Was she telling him to stop his bullshit debates with you, now that you were living here? You couldnât tell, even though you pressed an ear to the wall. They were both talking, but too quietly for you to understand a word.
You still wondered about that incident a week later. Christina just didnât come back after bursting into Ericâs room. And he wasnât to be seen ever since. Like he had just vanished. Which he didnât because you could hear him come into his room late at night and leave it early in the mornings. Summer break meant he didnât leave for classes and it bugged you that you even thought about this so much. You shouldnât care. At all.
You did care.
âChris?â You knocked on hers and Willâs door. Will answered to âcome inâ. You opened their door and only saw him laying on the floor in front of a fan. The heat was still very prominent. Instead of asking where Christina was, you asked him if he was fine.
âTotally fine. Just very hot.â
âSame,â you replied, regretting it a little to not having asked Christina if there was air conditioning in the apartment before you moved in.
âChristina is out with Uriah. Doing the weekly grocery haul. Uriah jumped in for me,â Will rolled around to lay on his stomach and looked at you with a dramatic expression on his face, âI just couldnât. Too. Hot.â
With an amused smile you closed the door again and went to the kitchen to get some more water. Even though it was summer break, you still did a lot for college. There was a study you had engaged in and wanted to work on further. Sitting back down at your desk, you lost yourself in analysing the newest data that had come in.
You didnât know for how long he stood there in silence until you noticed him. Eric leaned in your opened doorframe and observed what you were doing. You turned to him in your chair.
âCan I help you with something, Mr. Invisible?â You really really wanted to know if you had done something wrong for him to disappear so completely from the apartment. Within the next second, all the exhausting memories of debates with him came back and you were feeling a little less guilty. Still, you wanted to know.
âJust wanted to let you know that, whatever Christina might have told you, is not true.â
âWhatâs that supposed to mean?â
âThat itâs not true.â
âWhat is not true?â
âMy reasons for always debating with you.â Ericâs look was puzzled and he tried to understand the confusion on your face. Or his own confusion. Then his eyes widened a little. âWait, she didnât talk to you?â
âTalk to me about why youâre such a pain in my neck? No!â You wished she wouldâve. For the last week you had tried to question her about that incident but she always managed to change the topic. Wait⊠âWhat are those reasons?â
âThere are no reasons. And if there are any,â he grew uncomfortable, âthey are just not true.â
âYou confuse me,â you stated.
âGreat,â Eric replied. âAt least once I managed to do that after never being able to do so in our debates.â He left. Just left and let you sit in your room with a thousand question marks in your head.
Christina wouldnât get a single minute of peace when she got home. Not until she told you what had happened a week ago. Even if you had to kidnap her on your bike to a donut shop and sugar-shock her to get information. You would get information. That was for sure.

Cold Pizza (Raphael x Gender Neutral Reader)
Rated: T Gender Neutral Reader, power outage, banter, light angst and fluff, mutual pining, friends to lovers, Raph can cook <5k words
*
Snow falls gently upon the city outside your window, and it should be calm. You should want to listen to soft jazz or something. You should be sipping tea and enjoying the sight. But instead you're stifling a laugh at the sound of Raphael swearing behind you as he stubs his toe in the dark.
"Shit. Why the hell is that in the middle of the floor?"
"It's a coffee table, Raph. It's in front of the couch same as always." You haven't redecorated the apartment in months, but it's only Raph's second visit. You can't really blame him for not knowing the layout of the place by heart. But he's a ninja, isn't he? Shouldn't he be better at finding his way through the shadows?
The table scrapes against the hardwood floor as he drags it back into place and you snicker into the sleeve of your long-sleeve tee. The building only lost power ten minutes ago but your hands are already getting cold.
The crinkle of the last bag of potato chips gets louder as Raphael comes up behind you. "Don woulda neva let this happen."
"Really?" You huff. "Donatello wouldn't have let the blizzard get so bad that it took down the power lines?"
"Well, he woulda made sure the generator was workin', but no. That's not what I'm talkin' about." He crunched and munched in your ear.
As payback for the purposefully annoying chew, you snagged a chip out of his hand and gnashed your teeth over it hard. Crumbs fell to the ground and he snarled, shaking his head.
"You heathen. This is the last of the food! Your cupboards are bare."
"My cupboards? Ok, grandma..." You don't hide your snicker this time. "There's canned soup and, like, other stuff in the pantry, dude. Don't get your panties in a twist."
"We can't turn on the stove if there's no power, genius."
"It's a gas oven, genius."
"I don't know what difference that makes, Einstein."
"It means all I need is a lighter and I can ignite the gas, Einstein."
"Well, you don't smoke, Edison."
"Valid. But I do have a lighter. It's in a drawer somewhere."
It does take another ten minutes to actually find the lighter, in your nightstand, having been tossed there after you used it to light some candles in your room forever ago. And even after you find it, you set a pot of water to boil only to have Raphael complain that he can't find the pasta you were sure was in the pantry.
"Well, what is in there?" you ask as you light a few more candles around the kitchen.
Raphael places a jar of tomato sauce on the counter, but his tone remains unimpressed. "Flour and shit."
"That's fucking gross."
"You know what I mean." Raphael opened the cabinet door wide. "Flour, sugar, salt... I don't know. Like, a thousand different jars of seasonings you've probably never used ever."
"How do you know I've never used them?"
"Probably because they've all got their plastic seals on?"
"Right. I don't really cook that much."
Raphael gestures to the otherwise empty shelves. "I'm shocked."
"Well..." You pass the jar of tomato sauce you were going to use for the pasta you actually don't have from one hand to the other as you think. "There's gotta be something. Grab the cereal, at least."
The Honey Nut Cheerios barely have a bowl left. It's hard to ignore it when Raphael's stomach growls.
"Ok, ok. Maybe we should order take out?" But as you form the question, you notice something more than hunger and frustration in the way Raphael wraps his arms around himself. "You feeling alright?"
"Sure." Raphael shrugs, and though you have to squint in the evening's fading light, you think he looks a little paler than usual.
"Raph?"
He's the master of compartmentalizing and hiding his feelings -- until they bubble over into a fiery mess -- but he's utter crap at suppressing the shiver that runs through his arms while you're staring.
"Dude⊠you're sick or something."
"I'm not," Raph says, relaxing his arms from around his body to his sides, but his shoulders remain tense. His arms stay tucked tight against his sides. "I'm fine. There's nothin' to say. We're stuck here. Right?"
"Call Donnie."
"He can't⊠he can't come out in this weather."
"The weather?" The winds had died down. And yeah, the drifts were pretty high in some parts of the city, but it was dark enough that- "Are you too cold?"
Raphael shrugs.
You move closer to him, reaching out, and his arm under your hand feels cold to the touch. "RaphâŠ"
He leans into your touch a second longer than he wants to, chasing the heat as you pull your hand away. You're close friends, but you don't go around holding onto each other or anything. The way he chases the warmth of your hand, the small needy sound in his throat, breaks you inside.
"Itâs why we got generators at the lair. They mostly run on street power Donnie got hooked up, but⊠don't do so well in the cold, y'know?"
"Shit. I'm sorry." You turn on another burner and fill another pot of water. "Can you, uh, get in touch with D? I know there's a way to get the oven going but I, er, don't wanna blow up the apartment in the process."
Raph nods and you notice another shiver. He hunches in on himself as he thumbs out a text to his brother.
While he's occupied, you rush over to the living room and grab a blanket from the couch. You're not sure he wants to admit just how cold he is, so you don't wrap it around his shoulders yourself, but you place it on the counter with purpose and head into the bedroom to find a heavier sweater for yourself. And some socks. You definitely need to double up your socks. And shit, maybe you should offer Raph some socks too.
But what the hell socks do you have that'll fit him?
You grab the comforter from your bed and hug a pair of pillows to your chest. The way to the livingroom causes you to stumble and you know you're not looking the cutest you've ever looked when you crash into the couch with your load, but you manage to grunt like a buffoon when you bounce off the couch cushions and land hard on the floor.
"Graceful." Raphael says from the kitchen counter. He saunters over, wrapped up in the blanket, wearing it like a shawl and looking ever so much like a reptilian version of the big bad wolf pretending to be grandma.
"My, what big eyes you have." You kid, and you smirk, but color blooms high on Raphs cheeks and you watch him duck his head just a bit as he tries not to break your gaze.
"They um⊠they're the same as always , y'know?"
From there on the floor, you look up at him and wonder when he became so shy. He's been your best friend for ages. He's muscles and bravado. He's a ninja skill set and a heart of gold. He's fire and sugar and the kind of spicy that'll catch you on fire if you stay too close, but you always want to be close to him and you know one day you're going to get burned. It's why you don't touch. It's why you point to the blankets and pillows on the couch and you back away from the pile so he can get them himself.
You know if you get too close. If you let yourself linger near him, you'll stay too long. You'll get burned. What's between you simmers when you keep your distance. That's good. That's better. You don't want him to push you away, so it's better to keep some distance. He hasn't pulled you closer, so you think you're doing the right thing. If you were reading this wrong, there would have been some clue. Someone would have said something. Raph would have said something. He's not one to mince words about what he wants.
He's very much the guy who tells you what he wants when he wants it.
"Don says we can light the pilot and have the gas oven heat the room, but you're gonna have to do it because my hands are too big."
"Know what they say about a man with big hands?"
Raphael crosses his arms over his chest, unamused. "Woulda lit the damn thing myself if my hands were smaller so it don't really matter what people say about big hands. At the moment these big hands are useless."
"Geez, Raph," you scoot around him to get at the oven. "You're not useless. Chrissake."
The oven lights and you crank it up to 500°F. "We can leave the door open a crack and let it warm the room."
"Or we can make pizza."
"Sure. Yeah." You say, dripping with sarcasm. "We could totally learn how to make pizza in the dark with no electricity or ingredients."
"We don't got no ingredients." Exasperated, Raphael throws off the blanket and gestures toward the pantry. "You got spices. Sauce. Flour."
"What about cheese?" Your hands are on your hips and your toe is tapping because you just know he's going to come after your snacks.
"I saw like 7000 Polly-O string cheese things in your crisper drawer-"
"Don't touch my string cheese!" He wouldn't dare.
"We can grate it down for-"
"You monster!"
Raphael is more snarl than laugh when he crows, "You're being ridiculous! I'm making pizza. Are you in?" His gaze narrows and you think he may be serious about tossing you out of the kitchen. "Or are you just in my way?"
As it's the only warm room in the apartment, you're ready to make all the sacrifices necessary to keep your ass in the kitchen.
Raphael and his big hands leave you at a loss as he uses his thick fingers to ever so delicately arrange his phone against the tomato sauce jar. âSit still ya lil fucker.â With each adjustment he makes, the phone slides down the counter, unwilling to stand in place so that he can read the recipe without getting his phone dirty with sticky doughy hands.
You shouldnât just stand there watching with a grin, but you really canât help it. Itâs adorable. You really think you may be falling in love with him just watching the way he shifts the phone inch by inch. Then when he finally has the phone in place, he throws his hands up in the air, victory writ large upon his features. His smile is open and wide and itâs such a stark contrast to see him now, his body flooded with joy and warmth as opposed to when he was near frozen, that you canât help but smile back. Youâre a little thrown by just how charming that smile can be. You lock eyes and get stuck. Heâs so handsome. Heâs so true to himself. Heâs just real and raw and he doesnât care that this is only a tiny victory of some phone vs man vs counter slip ridiculousness. Heâs excited and he lets you join him in this celebration because itâs fun and it doesnât have to mean anything more than fun.
You shake your head as you grab the flour from the pantry and place it on the counter. âOne small step for a man, one giant leap toward making a pizza. We actually need to get some ingredients in a bowl, methinks.â
Raphael takes the flour and tears the never opened bag open from the top. Heâs obviously never done it before. Flour ends up everywhere and you donât even bother to tell him that he could have easily unfolded the flour bag and made far less mess.
As you watch his flour dusted face reemerge from the plume of flour, youâre actually glad you didnât mention it. Or else you wouldnât have had the chance to see him look so surprised. To surprise a ninja, now that had to be some kind of feat.
Raphaelâs green eyes blink at you, stark contrast green from the white floured face around them. His mask is caked in the stuff. You laugh as you reach forward. âMay I?â
He hasnât really said yes, but heâs spoken no objection either, so you slide the mask over his head and dust it off before laying it on the counter.
Seeing him without his mask is always a pleasure. One of the small pleasures you donât mention out loud. Like standing too close, it runs the risk of being burned. Something Raphael could take away if you make too big a deal of it. So, you try not to stare, while simultaneously trying to memorize every bump and slope of his features.
âYouâre a real mess,â you say, wiping Raphâs cheek with a clean hand. âHow much of this flour are we gonna lose before you whip up dinner, huh?â
Raphael has been staring at you. He hasnât even been paying attention to your words. In fact, heâs not sure youâre speaking. Everything feels like itâs moving in slow motion because your hands are reaching toward him for the second and third time today and that never happens. That never happens and Raph knows for sure because he pays attention to that sort of thing. He notices when you come close because he waits for it. He wishes for it. He clocks each step you take toward him and bites back a pout each time you pull away.
When your hands reach for his mask, he doesnât know what to say, so he stays still. And you unmask him. And the world doesnât stop turning, but it sure feels like all of the air has been sucked from the room. But youâre smiling, so he knows nothing bad has happened.
Youâre smiling so the world is still spinning.
His mask is in your hands and flour is falling to the floor like weightless raindrops and he can almost make out your laughter past the sound of his own thoughts. Thereâs nothing Raphael loves more than his time with you. The sound of your voice. The curve of your smile. The barely visible sunburst of silver under the pigment of your iris.
He shouldnât know about that design. He shouldnât pay such close attention to your eyes that it would be plastered in his memory. But he has. He does. He watches you when youâre not paying attention. When youâre playing around with his brothers or working at your computer. He watches the light reflect off your eyes. He could map the lines of your irises. And thatâs probably weird. Heâs no artist. He knows that. He canât do flowery words or paint a picture. But he has a mind like a steel trap. He remembers everything about you.
So, when you tease him about making dinner, he knows youâre probably thinking about your own lack of culinary experience. Youâre worried about screwing things up and probably relieved that Raphael is a little clumsy himself.
Raph uses this to his advantage, to make things a little easier for you. With a kind smile, he points to the cabinets. âI need a mixing bowl and some measuring cups. Oil, salt, and sugar. And yeast. We need yeast.â
âYeah. OK. Like I have fucking yeast up in this bitch.â
Raphael hums and turns. Heâs pretty sure he saw something that looked suspiciously like yeast in the cabinet. And there, on the row with all of the other unused herbs and spices, was a jar of the stuff. âYou really suck at this.â
You raise an eyebrow in surprise. âDonât I know it.â Thereâs no way to argue around it.
Taking orders from Raphael isnât a turn on or anything. Youâre not getting goosebumps from his praise or hanging on his every word like itâs the air that you breathe. But heâs standing close and the way his breath is warmer than the air around you makes your blood feel like itâs thrumming through your veins a little more quickly tonight than it was just minutes ago.
Standing in front of the open oven is hot work. You donât know much about dough, but youâve watched enough Great British Bake Off to know this rise is going to happen fast in the hot kitchen.
âWe should close the oven door,â you suggest. âGet the inside temperature right and let the dough do itâs thing before we shape it and sauce it up and stuff.â
âWow, thatâs a lotta we talk. You sure youâre up to the task? Thought you were taking more of a supervisory role, here.â
âI grated the cheese, didnât I?â
âYou made more wine than cheese, sweetheart.â
âYes, well, it was my favorite snack.â
âItâs sacrifice will be worth it.â
The pizzas only took about ten minutes in the oven before the dough was crispy, the cheese not quite burned, and the sauce was bubbly hot. Raphael moved them onto the bare countertop to cool. âSo, we keepinâ the oven on or?â
âOf course we can.â You glance at the oven and then at the pile of blankets and pillows in the living room. âCanât we?â
âI could ask Don? Seems like the power could be out all night. Not sure we should leave the oven on indefinitely.â
âWell⊠weâll figure that out after we eat, I guess.â
Eating was weird. You sat close, sharing the light of a candle to make sure you werenât dripping sauce all over yourselves. Your elbows nudged each other as you moved and you had to stop yourself from shifting further away each time. It would look suspicious. You werenât close because you wanted to be, because you desired to be as close to Raphael as physically possible without fear of your feelings being known⊠you were sitting elbow to elbow with him now because you needed to. He wasnât going to read anything into it.
âYou have sauce on your chin.â
âI what?â
âSauce,â Raphael said, quieter than you expect from him. Perhaps he worries about shouting in your face. Things do seem louder in the dark. So then why does he sound like heâs whispering?
âOh. Yeah. The sauce is good, Raph. You, uh, know your way around that spice rack.â
âNah, I meanâŠâ Raphael shakes his head good naturedly and sighs before lifting his thumb to your chin. He takes your face in his hand as he drags his thumb over your chin, wiping your skin clean with a smooth drag of his thumb.
âRaph?â You suck in a breath and you catch his gaze. Heâs squinting at you as you struggle to make sense of his sudden closeness.
When he pulls away, you watch as he wipes his hand on his shorts. âYou had sauce. Ya know? It was uh, just there.â
âOh!â You wipe at the spot Raph has already cleaned, your cheeks and ears growing hot. âI⊠thanks.â
âYeah, no prob.â Raphael clears his throat and scratches the back of his neck. Heâs still not wearing his mask, so each twitch of his eyes is out in the open. But you wonder if itâs a trick of the light, him looking embarrassed and unsure.
âThe blankets and stuff. I was gonna say we should tuck under them. I donât know about you, but that ovenâs been off for a minute and Iâm already feeling like-â
âThe blankets are good.â
âYeah?â
âYeah,â Raph says, swallowing hard. âThe cold makes me a little tired, you know?â
You shrug. You suppose it makes sense. You feel a little tired yourself. âYou could sleep. Do you mind if I share the couch with you? Thatâs my stuff from my room.â
âNo. I mean, yeah. I mean. I donât mind sharinâ. Donatello says humans run hot?â
âCompared to you?â You know you probably shouldnât joke about something like this when Raphael was vulnerable, but you always joke about everything. To not joke about this feels like it would make things worse, make them mean more, give the vulnerability more weight than if you treat it the same as everything else. âYeah. I guess. Weâre warm-blooded.â It feels weird to refer to humans as we and the turtles as they. You rarely think of yourself as different from them. You havenât thought of them as other than the guys for so long. âItâs umâŠâ
âYeah, so, like sharing would be fine. Itâs cool.â
âYou wanna use my body, Raph? That what this is about? You tryinâ to steal my heat? My human fire?â
âAre you kidding?â
âAbout mi fuego humano?â
âWhat the fuck is wrong with you?â
âBaby you can light my fire.â
âI donât even know you.â
âYou wanna sleep with a stranger! For shame!â
âDonât slut shame me. I never slut shame you.â
âYeah ok, sure, dude.â
âWhat? I donât.â
âUh, you crap on every guy Iâve ever been out with.â
âNo, I donât. No I havenât.â
Suddenly all the joking isnât fun. Because if Raphael canât see how hard youâve tried to get over him. How hard youâve tried to move past your feelings for him, feelings that he so very clearly does not reciprocate, then you really donât want to play this game anymore.
You stand up and move to the couch. You wonât deny him your body heat if thatâs what he needs, but you donât think you can carry on this conversation. By the time he gets to the blankets, theyâll be warm, you think. Then maybe you can have a minute to yourself.
Raphael follows you to the living room in quiet contemplation. âI hate the guys you date.â
âGreat. They were real winners anyway so, thanks for running them off. Never did stand a chance with them.â
âThey werenât good enough for you.â
âPfft.â He doesnât get it. None of them were good enough, yeah. Because every guy youâve ever talked to, ever listened to talk about their hobbies and dreams and hopes and family, every guy who has ever taken an interest in you, youâve compared to Raphael. And every one of them has come up short.
âYou know how good you are? Like, a good person. Not like 'tries to be good' or 'does the right thing' kinda goodâŠâ
âGee thanks, big guy. Iâm blushing.â
Raphael turns to face you on the couch, his back braced against the arm rest and honest to god shoves you with his bare foot. You canât help but notice his toes are ice cold. âWhat Iâm saying is youâre the 'real' good. A good heart. You do the wrong shit for the right reasons kinda good. You hurt because you care, yet you still care.â
You let Raph ramble because you donât know what youâd say if you stopped him, if you acknowledge the things that he says. You let Raph ramble and you pull his ice cold foot into your lap under the blankets. You warm it in your hands. Maybe it should be gross. Heâs been walking around the apartment since early this afternoon barefoot. But itâs just feet. Just skin. Just flesh and bone and itâs all so cold between your palms.
Raphael scoots down against the armrest, just a little so that his foot is resting comfortably in your lap. He turns away from you to look at an alert on his phone, all the while still talking about how good you were when you tried to help Leo with his attempt to try every flavor of Pringles that you could find at the gas station mini mart. It was a valiant attempt and Leo didnât want to do it alone. You both ended up with pretty bad indigestion, but it was fun and Raphael had seemed extra happy to see Leo making a friend and being a total idiot with you.
âDonatello says the power should be up and running again sometime tonight. There was an update on the website or something.â
âThey give updates on this shit?â
âI guess?â
Your hands move to Raphaelâs other foot as you nod. âI donât really like the guys I date either,â you admit aloud. âItâs not that I set out ready to dump them, itâs just that they donât interest me. I try to get to know them, I try to let them get to know me. But it goes nowhere. I donât get that feeling, you know?â
Raphaelâs jaw tenses, but he doesnât answer.
You think maybe he doesnât know that feeling. Maybe he doesnât feel romantic attraction the way you do. âRaph, have you ever-â
âI donât like it.â
You nod, thinking youâll get more out of him if you stay silent. But when he doesnât elaborate, you realize you have to say something. âYou donât likeâŠâ
âAll those guys goinâ out with ya. They donât know ya. They donât treat ya the way ya should be treated.â
âReally? How do they treat me?â
âLike⊠like⊠They donât let ya let go. I see ya going off with them and you go quiet or you laugh too loud.â
âIâm too quiet. Iâm too loud. Which is it, Raph?â
âYou deserve somebody who lets ya have fun. You make jokes and goof off and sometimes yeah itâs cause youâre nervous but mostly itâs cause ya have funny shit goinâ on in ya head and ya wanna let me in on the joke.â
You nod. You really do think youâre the most hilarious person on the fucking planet. Itâd be a shame to keep all the good stuff to yourself. Even so, you donât share your thoughts with just anybody. Raphael is right, itâs him who you want to let in.
âIf I took ya out, itâd be like tonight.â
âOh. Yeah. Yeah.â You say thoughtfully, sarcastically, poking fun and rubbing at your chin not caring a whit that you just had Raphaelâs feet in your hands. âLike tonight. Youâd cut the power to the city so we could freeze our asses off, then set up a super romantic dinner where we eat by candlelight.â
âWeâd be laughing. Teasin. Iâd make you dinner and if you want fucking candles Iâll light you a fucking candle.â
âAnd Iâd rub your feet to thank you for making me such a delicious dinner.â
âYeah. I deserve some pampering.â
âWhat about me? I donât deserve to be pampered?â
âI just made you a romantic dinner with candles and all that shit.â
âHypothetically. Yet here I am, literally rubbing your feet.â
âSo what do you want, you want a foot rub for you too? Huh? You want a little shoulder rub cause you worked so hard watching me work my ass off in the kitchen?â
You pinch his ankle surprised he can feel anything when it all feels like rock solid muscle. Instead of answering with words, you give him a wry grin and move around a bit under the blankets. You relax into his chest, lying your head over his heart and settling your body between his and the pillows. âYouâre a real smartass.â
Beneath you, Raphael lies still.
âThis OK?â
Raph shifts a bit, you feel his hands rise and fall. âI donât really know what to do with my hands.â
You hum and nod your head against Raphaelâs chest. You reach blindly for Raphâs arms, one by one, and wrap them over your back. âDonât have to do anything.â
Raphael relaxes a little at the news. He ducks his head low and you think you can feel him breathe you in. He rests his cheek on the top of your head before asking, âThis that body heat thing?â
You nuzzle his chest, allowing yourself to slip under his arm a bit. Better position for falling asleep. âYeah,â you say. âSure.â
Raphael squeezes his arms around you, but he doesnât say anything. You have to ask or you wonât be sure. Even if it means getting burned. Even if it means youâve put too much meaning into things and youâre going to be pushed away, you have to know.
âThis is more than a body heat thing. For me.â You bury your face in his chest as you wait for his response. At least, for a few seconds longer, you can pretend his heart is beating for you.
âWhen I take you on a proper date, thereâs gonna be tables and napkins. And maybe something fancy to drink...â
âAnd then-â
âThis. And then, this.â
âI like this.â
âMe too.â

To Serve and Protect (Bucky Barnes x Police!Fem!Reader)
the twd obsession has been interrupted since Iâve started watch TFATWS and have binged bucky fics like I was 15.
Summery: - Reader is an accomplished New York officer but an old case comes back in the shape of a super soldier in need of aid.
Warnings: - Light Spoilers for TFATWS, Cursing, mentions of Human Trafficking, flirty Bucky(kind of I tried)
You had just received your second medal of honor before the blip had occurred. When you came back, you were nearly arrested for breaking into what you had known as your apartment. Luckily, the situation was under control quickly. You had family just outside the city who were willing to support you until you got back on your feet but it still felt like a kick in the gut that your home was gone and you now had to learn a bunch of new skills to do with being a cop. Most of your friends had either died during the five years or had to move out of New York, and those who remained had moved on and didnât seem to have time for you in their lives.
At least a few of your favourite places had stayed open, including what you thought was the best pizza joint in the state. You got dinner here most nights because it hadnât changed. The tables still wobbled, the neon sign still buzzed from overuse, and Louis the owner still kept a couple slices of your favorite pie in the back for you.
âPlease tell me the back booth is freeâ you sighed, taking the food from Louis.
âLong day, Detective?â Louis replied.
âNew partner thinks Iâm an idiot.â You mumble, taking a bite from the pie and burning your tongue.
âItâs clear,â Louis said sympathetically, nodding to the far side of the restaurant.
You slid into the small booth tucked out of the way, tucking into your pizza and soda. After your first slice you noticed a carving on the table. It was your initials plus A.S. equals epic. You smiled as you remembered your previous partner Aarush Sharma. You two had been friends since you joined the force and had come to this booth almost every break hour to fill up on pizza and terrible coffee.
âDetective L/N.â A gruff voice spoke to you. Judging by the shadow he casted over you, he was a big man.
âLook if your here to buy me off or intimidate me,â you snapped, âthen you can fu-â you stopped short when you looked up. You recognised the man as James Buchanen Barnes instantly. âOh,â you sighed with relief.
âYou know me?â he asked you.
âFollowed the Zemo case.â you explained. He visibly tensed at the mention of Zemo. You held up your hand to calm him. âI know youâve been pardoned.â You suddenly remembered how your conversation with the Winter Soldier had begun âwait, how do you know me?â
âI need your help,â He spoke low, just so the two of you could hear. He slid opposite you in the booth, leaning forward on the table. âTwo-thousand-fifteen, August seventh you filed a report on a human trafficking ring operating out of staten island.â You began eating your second slice of pizza as he talked. âYou arrested the main perpetrators, with the exception of Donnie Morris and Frank Abara. You opened an investigation on them but it went cold two months later.â You nodded along to the story. âThatâs because-â
âTheyâre Hydra? Real names Robert Bern and Josh Smith? And the trafficking was for human experimentation?â you interrupted him. He stared at you, just about concealing his surprise. âI was a good cop.â you finished off your pizza, wiping your mouth and looking away in shame. âWas.â
âWhyâd you stop?â he asked.
âThey threatened me.â You patted the flour off your hands and picked up your soda. âAnd when that didnât work, they told my friends to stop me else their family would be hurt, so.â you slurped on your soda and stared back at him.
His piercing blue eyes were reading you like a book, pulling apart your disgust at never catching them, and trying to figure out how to use it to his advantage. He had to admit it was impressive that a normal police officer was able to get farther than he was, but you were still a normal person.
âI need to find them,â he spoke up.
âWhy?â you cocked your eyebrow, soda straw still in your mouth. You had been studying his face to find any tell of malintent but the only conclusion you were drawing was that he was handsome as hell, and really good at hiding his tells.
âYou donât need to know.â he retorted. You hummed with discontent.
âSee, Mr. Barnes. My job is to protect and serve. Sadly, that includes assholes.â You put down the now empty soda cup and leaned forward to match his position. âAnd youâve said enough for me to arrest you under suspicion of planning to commit a crime against said assholes.â His glare hardened and his jaw tightened as he stared you down. âSo please answer the question, ideally in a non-incriminating way.â
He looked and huffed, sliding back a little before fixing you with his stare again, but it wasnât long until he was looking from his hands to the window, seemingly in defeat. âTheir boss is dangerous. And Iâm the one that made it so.â He forced a bitter smile finally looking back at you. âIâm trying to right as many wrongs as I can but I canât find this guy but you.â he punctuated by pointing at you with his joined hands. You caught a glint of something metal up his sleeve that you suspect was his arm. âYou came very, very close. Apparently, Closer than I thought you did.â
You mulled it over in your head for a moment before reaching into your breast pocket and pulling out your notepad. âLook, I donât know what to tell you, Mr. Barnesâ You looked over the restaurant between bouts of writing, talking all the while in case people were listening. âThe case is closed and the records are public so everything you know is everything I know.â You quietly ripped off the piece of paper and pocketed the notebook, picking up your trash to disguise it. He took the hint and hid the paper by putting his hands down and sliding back in the booth, seemingly in defeat. âGood night, Mr. Barnes.â you said, and walked away, depositing your trash on your way out.
Bucky sat their a moment to give you a head start before stepping out himself, piece of paper in hand. As he walked home he opened the paper.
Tomorrow Seneca Village 23:35
Bucky stood in front of the plaque, mind too busy working through every horrible thing that could happen from this little stunt. He was about to run when he heard your voice. âHey there.â
You walked over and stood next to him, stoically in your repose. You were wearing a pair of jeans and heeled boots with a fashionable jacket and a suitcase in hand. âI don't know which of us is stupider right now.â
âYou could have picked a better meeting spot.â Bucky retorted, shifting uncomfortably.
âItâs horrifying,â you commented, putting the case down, Reading over the plaque. âOver two hundred lives ruined by a couple of assholes who wanted a park. Reminds me of another couple of assholes.â
âYeah?â Bucky replied. You stood there a moment longer, thinking if you could still go back. You bit your tongue and decided having faith was the better bet.
âBurn it when youâre done.â you shot back and walked past him.
Bucky noticed the case just outside his line of vision. He picked it up and walked away from the plaque, trying to remain as inconspicuous as possible despite the case not really matching his attire.
You didnât hear anything for a couple weeks after the impromptu meeting, having handed over every piece of evidence that had been sitting in your self storage since 2015. Each minute was spent biting your nails with stress, hoping your actions didnât come back to bite you in the ass. Then the news came on, publicizing that Robert Bern and Josh Smith had been arrested âafter it was discovered they were connected to a human trafficking ring in New Jersey and a former operation in Staten Island.â
âLooks like somebody did your job for you.â
âShut up, Louis.â you quip back at him, nursing a terrible cup of coffee. The restaurant was near empty aside from yourself, Louis, a trio of loud drunk women in the corner and a homeless man who had scraped cents together to buy a slice of pizza. The TV above the kitchen archway providing most of the ambiance.
âWhatâs got you in a mood?â he asked as he cleaned.
âEver been ditched on a blind date? I get all dolled up,â you opened your coat to show a figure hugging dress with a low neckline, coupled with an elegant necklace. âAnd the asshole texts me when Iâm already at the lounge saying he needs a fucking rain check.â
âOkay, well heâs an ass-â
âRight!â you exclaim.
âBut you need to stop scowling before you scare off my customers.â Louis playfully chided.
âOh, cause thereâs so many of them.â you waved a hand out at the restaurant to emphasize your point. Still you leaned over your coffee to stew in your own misery. You couldnât hear the door open over the womenâs third rendition of âIâm every womanâ but you noticed someone slide onto the bar stool next to you. You turned your head to see Bucky looking back.
âHave I seen you here before?â Bucky said playfully.
You chuckled involuntarily and sat up on your stool. âYou must be mistaking me with someone else.â
He swiveled on the stool to face you fully, leaning on the counter comfortably. âYou sure?â he seemed to be playing with you, a sly smirk on his face. âCouldâve sworn I met this detective lady here who looked a lot like you.â
âWas she pretty?â You pressed, a smile now sneaking itâs way onto your face without you knowing.
Bucky looked in your eyes with a soft sincerity. âIncredibly,â
You laughed nervously as you looked away and into the pool of your coffee. âWas that before or after she helped you with your job.â You deflected.
âAbout that,â Bucky leaned onto the counter. He was still quiet good at hiding his tells but you got the impression he was nervous by the pause. âYou gave me more than I needed so I was able to do better than I planned. I know how hard it can be to trust someone. I'm not sure how to thank you for that.â
âTake her on a date!â Louis yelled from the kitchen, looking at you two through the serving window. âSheâs already all âdolled upââ Louis mocked you.
âKeep cleaning!â you shot back. âIgnore him. Heâs just dripping with sympathy since I got ditched.â
âI mean,â Bucky started, you looked over and saw him staring at his hands with nerves as his thumbs tapped against each other. âI just wouldnât know where to take you.â he admitted under his breath.
A question instantly plagued your mind and it demanded to be asked. âHave you not...since nineteen-fifty?â
Bucky nodded with pursed lips. âYou can laugh.â
You smiled at the super soldier. âRight,â you announced, pushing yourself off the stool. âCome on, I know a great dive three down.â
âA dive?â Bucky asked in disbelief, but he was still smiling.
âYep. Where they donât give a shit who you are as long as you're buying.â You fixed your jacket with new found enthusiasm. âYou are buying, right?â
âFor a doll like you,â He stood up from the stool. âIâll buy the bar.â he held the door as you both left the little pizzeria
âOh honey, thereâs nothing like me.â you said playfully as you stepped out the door.
âThen I must be the luckiest man in the world,â he flirted, offering you his arm. You slide your hand in, curling your wrist around his bicep and off you both went.

Business AU - Working Late, Part 8
Part 1 || Part 2 || Part 3 || Part 4 || Part 5 || Part 6 || Part 7
Thereâs one scene in there I had in mind ever since I started writing that small fic and HELL YEH Iâm gonna draw something about it at some point because fsdfbbsfbsdhbfgsbgdfguidfg it just looks aesthetically pleasing in my head.
ENJOY.
(also reminder that I base Donnieâs place on this video. The only part I change is the âkidsâ area - which is horrendous imo :âD - and I make into a lab/small training area)
There was something different in the air when Vee got to work the next day. This feeling that wanted to explode out in the open, an incessant rush in her veins that made her heart beat faster whenever sheâd spot the terrapin. Their tasks for the day didnât give them much time to talk, but everytime theyâd be exchanging words or documents, there was this longing sensation that slowed down time to a honey sweet pace. Fingers brushing against the other, light touches here and there. Professionalism remained king in the work place and they intended to keep it as such.
By the end of the day, she knew she couldnât leave without at least wishing a good and proper evening to the mutant. She walked to his office, remaining at the doorframe as she watched him place various papers into a briefcase. Vee gently knocked, signaling her presence, to which Donnie responded by looking up to her and adorning the cutest smile.
âAt least this time I didnât scare you,â started the woman.
âAs I said yesterday, I had a lot on my mind. At least today my thoughts are a little clearer, so I canât be easily scared. Come in!â he added, gesturing for Vee to step inside.
âI wonât take much of your time, I just wanted to check up on you before leaving.â
The turtle placed some final documents in the case, snapping it closed afteward.
âI was actually about to leave as well. Want me to drive you back home?â
âDo you have something planned?â asked Vee, raising a brow with a small smile.
Donnie faked pondering, lightly drumming his fingers on his desk: âHmm, I suspect I might be spending the evening with a pretty lady, if she agrees.â
âLucky her, Iâm sure sheâll say yes,â winked the woman.
Already on the move, Donnie offered a hand for Vee to hold, the duo then walking together in order to reach the indoor garage at some levels below.
âIs it okay, though? Did you have something to do after work?â asked the terrapin.
âI was planning on having a drink back home, but if I can share one with you, thatâd be even better.â
âHow about you have that drink at my place? I have a couple of bottles that might interest you.â
âYou know that if I am to step foot into your place, I will be incredibly jealous, right? ... Iâm sure you must be living in a luxurious place or something.â
âA little castle in the sky, but it sure is missing a beautiful presence inside of it.â
Vee blushed, definitely enjoying the compliments that were left here and there.
Once in the vehicle, the duo made their way to the streets, the conversation light and simply glad the week was finally over. Vee did notice that their path led them to streets that featured tall buildings in the Tribeca district. For a moment she felt out of place, definitely not the target audience for such a high-end environment, but her curiosity kept her on edge only to be able to get a view of Donnieâs place. They were first facing a tower with a blank stone facade, extending so high up in the sky. The entranceâs interior was as elegant and refined as the exterior, the place giving out this feeling of prestige from every corners. As they stepped inside an elevator, Veeâs eyes widened a little as she saw Donnie press the button for the 78th floor. Castle in the sky, indeed.
As they arrived at the desired level, they were soon facing the entry door, the turtle smirking to the woman as he held the doorknob and waited.
âReady?â
âOpen the damn thing already so I can cry a little inside,â answered Vee amusedly.
The door fully opened, she couldnât retain her gasp as her eyes started to devour the interior of what was rightfully a penthouse.
The very first few rooms she saw around left her speechless, the single thought of âthis is bigger than my whole damn apartmentâ flooding her mind. She knew there would be more, her curiosity would lead her to visit every rooms anyway. She did notice french doors leading to an outdoor balcony, her instinct pushing her to get out and take in the view.
Stopping by the the rails, she could feel the refreshing gusts of wind go through her hair, accentuating the euphoria of being so high over the city.
âSo, what do you think so far?â
She turned around to face Donnie, the terrapin leaning against the open doorsâ frame, always this smile on his face - glad to see her reaction. Vee tried to play it cool, shrugging.
âHeh, Iâve seen better,â she joked.
âAh damn, and I wanted to impress,â tsked the terrapin in a similar tone.
Vee couldnât retain her smile any longer, happily trotting back inside.
âYou still have your chances. Show me the rest!â
The lower level was also home to a small office and a formal living room, but the next area was what retained the womanâs attention the most.
The kitchen was a thing of beauty, Vee unable to resist the urge to feel the marbled island and counters, in awe of the space.
âDamn, I WISH I had such a kitchen. I'd be cooking all the time!â
âYou fancy yourself as a chef?â questionned Donnie.
âI do like to experiment from times to times,â she winked back.
She clapsed her hands together, bringing another subject on a rather similar topic:
âSO! What should we eat? I could even prepare something if you want.â
The turtle waved that offer away.
âNonsense, you're my guest, you shouldn't be doing anything of that sort. ⊠I uh-â He opened some cupboards, then the fridge and its freezer. âWow, I have almost nothing! Except one frozen pizza for dire situations,â he added, waving a box out in the open with an unpleased expression.
Vee was instantly on board: âYou know what? Fuck yeah. It's Friday night, we deserve that.â
âNow that's a line of thought I can get behind.â
As Donnie was starting to preheat the oven, Vee got closer, some questions raising in her mind:
âAlthough, I'm kinda susprised you don't have much variety, judging by the size of this place.â
âNot gonna lie, I need to go grocery shopping,â shrugged the mutant. âAlso that tends to happen at certain times of the month. Mikey has us go through our stock, fresh and canned, in order to donate to food banks and soup kitchens.â
âThat's amazing and kind!â Vee was pleasantly surprised.
âHe does have this city at heart, and he loves to give back to the people,â continued Donnie. âWe all love the idea. Since we can afford pretty much anything we want, it's only fair that we help those in needs. ⊠Heck, this city has done a lot for us in the past and we had to rely on what others were throwing away for us to survive. Now it's time to pay back.â
âI find that to be very admirable,â commented the woman gently. â⊠Not a lot of people would do the same.â
âIndeed. Itâs not because weâre mutants that it means weâre savages. We do have some heart under our shells,â he playfully added.
The oven ready, the food was placed to cook and the tour then continued. As Vee was heading to the staircase in order to reach the upper level, Donnie stopped her, pressing a button nearby and opening a encased door in the wall to reveal a small elevator.
âShow off!â laughed Vee
âWhat?! It can be helpful!â he quipped back with a smile.
The second floor offered two sections, one part leading to the bedroom, but the other leading to entertainement and other things. They first got to the media room, the place cozy for a nice and quiet evening.
But Veeâs eyes brought her to the glass doors that led to a juliet balcony, not wasting any time to open them and take another good look at the city.
She sighed dreamily, barely hearing the faint clinking of glasses and a bottle opening back inside.
âYou like the view, donât you?â started Donnie as he next got near, offering her a glass of red wine.
âIt looks and feels like a dream. Didnât know such a place could be found in this city.â
As she took it, the terrapin next sled his free hand and forearm gently around her waist, unable to resist the need to feel her closer... Vee did not mind, actually leaning back a little against him, gladly taking a sip of her drink before answering:
âYouâd be surprised, there are bigger places laying around.â
âIâm sure they wouldnât look as tasteful as yours.â
âNonsense. It only looks good right now âcause youâre in here. ... Any places youâre in looks a thousand times better than before.â
Veeâs blush was more apparent as she could feel the other gently nuzzle the top of her head, slowly making his way to a temple and leaving a soft kiss there.
âYouâre one heck of a charmer, did you know that?â added the woman with a smirk.
âI only aim to please, I canât help it.â
She turned to face him, raising a brow in amusement.
âAnd so what now? You brought me to your place only so you could woo and please me?â
âThat does sound like a good plan.â
The feel of his hand next cupping her cheek brought a shiver across the womanâs body, leaning slightly to his touch. His scales did feel foreign compared to human skin, but there was a certain softness to it as well that only made her crave for more...
âEach days I wake up and wonder if meeting you was ever a dream...,â softly said the mutant.
âI wouldnât mind making it feel a bit more real to you.â
That brought a quiet chuck out of Donnie, but also gave him enough courage to lean in and place a sweet, slow kiss on Veeâs lips. Each instances would bring their bodies closer, the duo mindlessly making their way back inside and only breaking their kiss to leave their wine glasses on a nearby coffee table. It was that magnetism, a certain je ne sais quoi that sparked that fire in them whenever theyâd get that close. Last eveningâs passion was still lingering and right now it felt as if there had been no break at all since then. As Vee was starting to unbutton the mutantâs shirt, both heard a beeping sound, stopping them dead in their tracks. Their eyes fell on Donnieâs right wrist - his watch.
âShit, the food,â said the terrapin. âI, uh, Iâll be right back,â he added, trying to gain back his senses. âIâll get it out and let it cool for a bit on the counter.â
âSure, go,â replied Vee with a small smile, slightly flustered as she replaced her crooked glasses and moved some strands of hair away from her face.
She took back her wine as she watched him go. A part of her was telling her to slow down, but on the other hand she couldnât deny that the need was there - on both sides. What harm could there be? It was just about having a little bit of fun... She proceeded back to the hallway, sipping as her gaze scanned the decor. She heard hurried steps in the staircase, soon Donnieâs shape coming into view. He tried to play it cool as he noticed the woman looking at him, vaguely gesturing in the kitchenâs direction downstair.
âItâs ready whenever you want.â
Vee took another sip, then adding: âWe still havenât finished the tour yet. Letâs do that first!â
âThereâs not much left, but alright.â
ââNot much leftâ, says the guy who lives in a two-story penthouse WITH an elevator,â pointed Vee, amused.
The mutant chuckled, inviting the woman to follow him as he left a hand at the small of her back. The next part had been completely renovated in order to have one room be a small lab, and the other one be a private gym and training area.
âWhat kind of trainings do you do?â inquired Vee, looking around at the equipment.
âMostly nin-uhm, martial arts,â Donnie quickly corrected himself.
ââNin-uhm-martial-artsâ, sounds interesting,â laughed the woman. âAny specialty?â
âBĆjutsu,â he replied, grabbing a pole from a rack nearby.
Vee whistled in appreciation, her eyes scanning the weapon.
âIâve heard that can pack quite a punch, surprisingly.â
âItâs good to whack some butts, not gonna lie,â added Donnie, rolling the staff in one hand. Then in one swift movement he brought the woman closer, the pole resting at her back. âIt can also be helpful for some maneuvers,â he ended with a smirk.
âSuch a tease,â said Vee, playfully tapping at his exposed plastron. âI wouldnât say no to a demonstration.â
âAnother day, perhaps.â
He let her free, putting the staff back to its resting place
âAight, come on, one room left!â
âWhat about that lab part?â asked Vee, following the terrapin next.
âThereâs nothing much to see, frankly. Itâs pretty messy as well.â
âOr maybe youâre just a mad scientist and you donât want me to see your evil inventions?â
Donnie faked a surprised gasp: âAlas, youâve uncovered my secret!â
Both were laughing as they made their way to the last room; the master bedroom.
It was quite simple and charming, but the main feature remained the large windows that gave that same phenomenal view of the city. Vee took some time to appreciate the decor, sipping the last drops of wine from her glass.
â... I canât imagine waking up every day with such a view,â she mused, her gaze drifting back to the windows. âYou must feel on top of the world.â
âWait, I can make it even better,â said the other as he moved to the light switch.
As soon as he turned the lights off, the roomâs atmosphere changed, suddenly illuminated by a sea of stars below them.
Envelopped in darkness, yet glistening in colorful lights, Vee felt at peace - a hidden watcher over this tumultuous city. She next felt her glass gently get taken away from her hold, the mutant leaving it on a small table nearby. It didnât take long for him to get back close to her, his arms surrounding Veeâs form as he stood behind her. The woman easily slipped into that feel good moment, closing her eyes and exposing a faint smile on her lips. He felt so strong, yet tender - the promise of a good man that would never do her wrong...
â... Iâm so glad youâre here,â he murmured, his hands travelling along Veeâs arms in light touches.
Oh to hell with it. She decided to move out of Donnieâs hold, proceeding to remove her shirt. She turned around to face him, noticing his gaze studying her form and probably a bit surprised to suddenly see her in her bra. But she didnât give a damn. Thatâs what she wanted.
âAnd Iâm glad to be here,â she answered calmly.
She heard that deep churr rise again in the mutantâs chest, an expression of desire which would entice her so much in return... Vee couldnât help bringing her hands to his exposed chest, feeling the faint vibration and appreciating the texture of his plastron. Her touch lowered, continuing her previous task of unbuttoning his shirt. The turtle helped a bit by detaching another button behind his neck and then at his lower back, allowing the clothing to be properly removed from around his shellâs attachment. Without a shirt, Vee could rightfully observe the terrapinâs muscles, her fingers lightly hovering his toned arms and appreciating every inches of what she saw. All it took was for their gazes to cross, her greens in his golds, to bring back that same need from earlier. Kiss me again and again, and never stop...
The feel of his lips was pure addiction at this point. A slow dance that lightened up all her senses. Soon enough he was sitting down on the bed, Vee inviting herself unto his lap only so she couldnât break their kissing. To feel his three-fingered hands across her skin kept her in such an incessant need, feeling like she was drowning in-between her legs. The terrapin dared to unclasp and remove her bra, although the whole movement felt very natural. In return, the woman removed her glasses, as well as Donnieâs, taking a moment to admire his traits.
â... You have such beautiful eyes,â she cooed, next tenderly sliding his bandana away.
She couldnât get over the feeling of his scales under her fingers, soon nuzzling his cheek and her lips trailing light kisses here and there.
âFais-moi lâamour (make love to me),â she whispered.
Donnie answered with a stronger churr, his hands travelling lower on Veeâs body only to bring her closer into one delicious wave motion, her lower core meeting his hidden erection. The movements were repeated, getting a momentarily release for all that sudden need. It was when he started to hear quiet moans out of her that he decided âscrew itâ and proceeded to shift her position to have her lay on the bed, on her back. Bringing himself over her, he left some kisses on her lips before starting to trail along her features, his tone husky as he started:
âYou smell nice...â
He went along her throat, his pace slow and delightful. His path led him lower and lower, from her breasts to her stomach.
âIâm sure you taste nice too,â he added.
Sitting on his knees, he brought Veeâs hips over his thighs, but he gave himself a pause, his palm caressing the front part of her jeans.
âYou good? You still wanna go on with this?â asked the terrapin.
She nodded, biting her lip in delight.
âAbsolutely, or else I wouldnât be laying here, half naked. ... What about you?â
He smiled, already at the task of unbuttoning and unzipping Veeâs pants.
âI never want to stop.â
In one swift movement, he removed her panties as well, undressing her completely without issue. He took a moment to study her form softly illuminated by the lights outside. She was a work of art to his eyes and right now he felt like the luckiest man alive... He lovingly squeezed her hips and altered with languid caresses over the womanâs skin, only to next bring one of his hands closer to her core, his thumb starting in slow circles over her clit. He could feel the relief washing over Veeâs body, her waist lightly following his motion only so she could feel more. The greater her need, the more Donnie didnât want to let go. He even got to slip one finger in her at some point, her moans an absolute delight as he took his time. After a moment, he dared get his finger out, his gaze plunged in Veeâs as he licked his digit with a low churr.
â... You do taste nice,â he commented lovingly. âNow I wonder how youâd feel around me.â
Vee was unable to speak, her heart beating so hard and throwing any reason out the window... As she saw Donnie about to unzip his pants, she got on the move and decided to take the matter in her own hands. They joined in a kiss as she got to the task, the mutantâs hands caressing her skin and sometimes getting lost in her hair, visibly as much in need as her for their imminent union. He was able to get out of his pants and underwear in a slight clumsy fashion, but he was quickly back on his knees, allowing Vee to observe him. Of a mixed pink and purple color, his penis did present some characteristics that were not human, such as a slightly flared tip. As it had been internal until now, the organ was coated in natural lubricant when out, most probably allowing for an easier penetration and accomodation to any partner. He was a bit longer than what Vee ever experienced with other partners, but right now her desire was surpassing any concerns. They didnât need to speak, Vee bringing the mutant into another kiss, allowing herself to climb back into his lap only for their cores to meet and rub in a delicious manner. The world around them was a blur of shadows and lights, only their presence the most real and tangible aspect in the room. Their thoughts were a cloud of mixed emotions, but right now what mattered most was that they wanted this. They needed this. A demonstration of love theyâve been holding back for some time now... Donnie instinctively started to shift forward, getting Vee back on the mattress. He was careful enough to hold back some of his weight on her, having enough strength to sustain himself, even when the woman would cling to him. He felt her legs gently caress along his, finding the best position to hold close to his hips, his shell proving to be somewhat of a challenge. That slight shift in her position allowed for better friction, the turtleâs languid motions bringing delighted mewls out of Vee. At some points he could feel his tip trying to slip in, to which he thought âfuck itâ and decided to go all in. Veeâs gasp brought him to a pause, remaining inside of her only so she could adjust.
âYou okay?â he murmured, encouraging her with some kisses here and there on her features.
She nodded, her fingers lovingly going across his scales at his neck and shoulders.
âIâll go slow, I promise,â he added.
Heâd never excuse himself if he ever were to hurt her, anyway. His churr rumbled again as he slowly moved his hips in a circular motion, Vee sticking to him like glue. Her toes were curling due to pleasure, her body soon following Donnieâs pattern only to better meet his thrusts. Some slurred âfuckâ and âoh ouiâ would leave her at times, sometimes interrupted by kisses that translated all the desire in her. At some point Donnie shifted their position so they would lay on their sides, still facing eachother. He helped one of Veeâs leg to stay up, his palm resting behind her thigh, allowing her to feel his muscles at work.
âYou feel so good,â he complimented, back into an amorous motion.
The friction created by this new proximity was bringing Vee on edge. She was unable to answer anything, her breathing making her lose her words. It was the only encouragement the mutant needed, nuzzling her as he kept going. Everything felt so natural. As if all the pieces of an intricate puzzle had finally been assembled. There was this sensation of completion between them, knowing that something in their bond would definitely shift - hopefully for the best.
âYou like that, baby? I wonât stop. I wanna feel you cum around me...â
She moaned his name in return, her eyes remaining shut as she lost herself even more in the moment. Every touches and kisses heightened all sensations, bringing both of them to an edge they so very craved for. Feeling Veeâs body tensing up slightly, the terrapin knew she was close to an orgasm, lightly squeezing his hold on her and bringing her into a french kiss. His thrusts were a little more forceful, their bodies tingling in anticipation. It was when she gasped for air, her nails digging into his scales, that he knew she was high on a cloud. He could feel her walls deliciously clamp around him, the sensation bringing him to his own edge as well. His orgasm brought him to slow his pace to long and langorous pumps. Their moans intertwined, riding this wave together. Neither of them wanted to depart once the high died down, keeping close and slowly petting eachother. Vee did bring Donnieâs attention on her as she left small kisses along his jawline. His golden eyes seemed to shine in this surreal lighting, conveying many unspoken words. There was this feeling of peace he never experienced with anyone else before. An affirmation that this was where he belonged, in her arms, as well as she belonged in his. They were still connected and it felt so right...
âWell, now that really opened my appetite,â finally said Vee with a small smile.
He smiled in return, leaving a kiss on her forehead. His appetite was growing as well, and for many things too...
***
Only wearing their underwears and glasses, both were now cuddled up in blankets on the couch in the media room, the television on to a random channel as they were eating their pizza (which they had to reheat, to their amusement). As they finished their meal, Vee did not mind cuddling closer to the turtle, simply enjoying eachotherâs presence. Her attention did drift from the television at some point, observing Donnieâs traits instead. She was used to seeing him with his purple bandana, but even with a bare face and only his glasses he still had a lot of charms. He had a kind face and the cutest snout, the mere sight of him a wonder when compared to humankind. The terrapin did notice her focus on him at some point, smirking.
âYes? Can I help you, madame?â
âI have a question.â
âOutrageous,â he added playfully. â... Do tell.â
She shifted her position a bit, bringing an arm against his chest, softly petting the scales at his collarbone and base of his neck.
âWhy do you and your brothers wear those bandanas? ... If itâs too personal, you donât need to answer.â
His smile was renewed and sweet, his arm around her bringing his hand to pet her shoulder and skin in return.
âI donât mind answering at all, although Iâll skip some details.... But long story short, it was a gift given to us by our father, years ago. It has a great significance for us and itâs still a great proof of all we had to learn and overcome in order to be who we are today.â
âSomething symbolic then, thatâs nice,â added Vee. âAs long as it brings something positive in your life, that sure can be as nice as anything. .... Also, not gonna lie, purple looks good on you.â
âItâs my favorite and itâs the best color, thatâs why! Whatâs your favorite color?â
Vee was amused by this simple question, but that brought her to move once more. She was now straddling the terrapin, her eyes scanning him as she answered:
âItâs green.â.
âOh,â added the other in amusement. âSo I guess I must be quite the jackpot for you?â
"You're everything I want..."
There was no ounce of hesitation as she leaned forward to give him a sweet kiss. Donnie easily gave in, his hands resting at the small of the womanâs back This time there was no shyness in-between them, only comfort and peace. Soon enough the television was nothing but background noise as they kept going for a second round that night...

Two
Frankie Morales/Reader
Word Count: 2,691
Warnings: Depressed Frankie, big angst with lots of hurt/comfort
Short A/N: Inspired by the âSleeping at Lastâ song titled âTwo.â It is not necessary to listen to the song, but it does help.Â
Frankie has a very bad day and somehow winds up at his best friendâs house. When he walks through the door, heâs met with their voice, singing something soft and comforting. Of course, when they see him in the state heâs in, they start to sing something else. Something that truly exposes every emotion in the room.Â
Frankie rarely had very bad days.Â
Sure, he had days where everything sucked and he just wanted to crawl under the covers and hide, but those were simple dime a dozen bad days. He had one of those every few weeks, and he knew how to deal with them. A cup of coffee and a phone call usually did the trick to shake away the brain fog.Â
However, every so often, about once every five or six months, shit just went sideways for Frankie. His bad days were ten times worse than they should be. Everything broke until he wasnât sure if anything would be okay ever again.Â
Today was one of those days.Â
In reality, he shouldâve seen it coming. The past week had been absolute garbage. Heâd gotten into trouble at his job on Monday and was now on permanent watch for a month, one of his best friends had broken their leg at midnight on Tuesday and heâd been in the hospital until three in the morning that night, heâd been getting less and less sleep until his nights were just as long as his days, and the boys were all busy this weekend and theyâd have to skip movie night.
In retrospect, it was the perfect recipe for a very bad day.Â
When heâd woken up to dismally grey weather and a raging migraine on Friday, he decided the universe was definitely out to get him.Â
He just barely managed to drag himself through work, simply sitting there with his head low and his back bent as he did his repetitive job, the glare off the computer doing no favors for his pounding head. He didnât even really react when his boss reprimanded him for mixing up the files. He just took the slap on the wrist with an increasingly heavy heart and headed silently out to his car.Â
He ended up in a tailspin when he left work that night, going from place to place and just sitting in his truck upon arriving, numb until he managed to put his foot on the pedal and drive off. It wasnât until he passed your townhouse three times that he actually managed to put the car in park in your driveway and slowly walk up to your front door.Â
When youâd gotten your own house, Frankie was the first and only one to get a spare key. A spare key he now shoved into the lock and turned, hearing the door unlock. He stepped into the entryway, dropping his keys on their hook and shuffling out of his boots. He may be horribly depressed, but he wasnât uncivilized.
âFrankie?â Your voice echoed from upstairs, soft music playing in the background that youâd been singing along to. He almost recognized the song, some cheery holiday tune you listened to all year long. âFrankie, is that you?âÂ
Frankie didnât say anything. He simply stood in your tiny entryway, numb and quiet. He didnât have the energy to respond, or to walk up the stairs to see you. He merely waited, watery eyes focused on the rapidly blurring carpet on your stairs.Â
âFrankie?â You repeated, stopping in your singing when he remained silent. âYou okay down there?âÂ
Your mismatched footsteps did little to break him out of his own head, the cast covered in signatures slowing you down as you came down the stairs and stood in front of Frankie. You were wearing old red pj pants with white polka dots and an oversized Fleetwood Mac shirt that youâd definitely stolen from him at one point. âOh Frankie,â you murmured, slowly tracing your hands over his cheeks. âBad day?âÂ
âVery,â Frankie choked out, leaning into your touch. He knew he looked awful, his face sunken and pale from lack of regular food and the significantly low amount of sleep heâd been getting. You made a small noise of sympathy, taking his hands.Â
âLetâs go upstairs,â you said softly, pulling Frankie along as you headed into the kitchen. You knew, in this state, that Frankie was pliant, his brain shut off entirely as he lost himself in his own depression. It hurt your heart to see him focus so hard on walking up the stairs, his brows furrowed as he put everything he had into lifting his feet and slowly shuffling upwards. It was so unlike that active and cheery Frankie you knew so dearly.Â
The music changed when you two reached the kitchen, and your eyes brightened as you got an idea. You grabbed your phone, keeping a firm hand wrapped around Frankieâs hand. As you scrolled, you kicked a chair out with your good foot and put your phone on the table so you could urge Frankie to sit down. Continuing to flick through your playlist, you finally found just the right song and hit play.Â
âSweetheart, you look a little tired, when did you last eat?â You sang softly along with the music, snapping Frankie out of his thoughts. Youâd sang this to your cousins when theyâd been sick and to Santi when heâd been panicking over a minor surgery he needed. It was a lullaby you sang to the boys when they couldnât sleep after getting too drunk and it had slowly morphed into a genuine comfort. However, Frankie had never heard the first word be âsweetheart.â You always said âDear boysâ or âdear heart.âÂ
âCome in and make yourself right at home, stay as long as you need.â You continued, handing Frankie a slice of pizza off a tray resting on the counter. It was still warm, but not hot, just the way he liked it. He looked down at it, a sudden horrible hunger consuming his stomach as he finally realized heâd been neglecting food all day.Â
You sat at the table with him as he ate the pizza, slowly singing more of the song until Frankie was entirely relaxed into your kitchen chair. âTell me, is something wrong? If something's wrong, you can count on me. You know I'll take my heart clean apart if it helps yours beat.âÂ
He felt something hit his hand, looking down and seeing a tear. Which was the moment he realized he was crying. Immediately, you stood, wrapping Frankie in a hug and allowing him to bury his head into your chest and finally, for the first time all day, let out every emotion he was feeling.
âIt's okay if you can't find the words. Let me take your coat, and this weight off of your shoulders,â you sang gently, taking Frankieâs hat off and resting it on the table. You carded through his hair, swaying slightly as he cried into your shirt.Â
Frankie pulled away, wiping his eyes and looking up at you. You smiled, scratching his scruff and putting your hands on his cheeks, the coolness of your fingertips positively burning his skin.Â
âLike a force to be reckoned with, a mighty ocean or a gentle kiss. I will love you with every single thing I have,â you sang, moving your hands and pressing kisses into the patches in his facial hair. âLike a tidal wave, I'll make a mess. Or calm waters, if that serves you best. I will love you without any strings attached.âÂ
Frankie froze. Heâd never heard this bit of the song before. âWhat?âÂ
You stopped, not bothering to pause the music that kept playing without you singing another line. âOh Fish, darling, youâre a mess. Are you okay?âÂ
Frankie nodded, slowly putting a shaking hand on your shoulder. The return of the nickname caused a hole in his chest to open, keening softly until you asked what was wrong.Â
âFish,â he whispered out, beyond the lump of tears that seemed to be choking him.Â
You nodded, understanding every word he managed to pack into that one trembling syllable.Â
âOkay Frankie,â you said, pouring all the love you could muster into his name. âItâs okay. I hear you.âÂ
You smiled, poking his nose and gently urging him to his feet after a minute. âCâmon Frankie. You need sleep.âÂ
He was limp putty in your hands as you slowly tugged him up the stairs once more, going as slow as he needed to. You opened your bedroom door and guided him to the bed, gently kissing his hairline.Â
âIâll be right back,â you promised, pulling away. âJust gonna go set something up, okay?âÂ
Frankie nodded, watching you go with blurring vision. He desperately wanted to call you back, to feel your arms around his body and let himself sink into you, losing every aspect of himself.
The sound of running water and your mismatched footsteps snapped Frankie out of his immediate misery. He lifted his head and watched you return to him, holding out your hands.Â
âI love you,â you said with a smile, pulling Frankie to his feet. âBut you smell and youâre covered in sweat.âÂ
He followed you into the bathroom, where your bathtub was already filling, a layer of bubbles sitting on top of the rippling water. The entire bathroom smelled familiar, and Frankie realized, watching you crouch down to grab something from your bathroom cabinet, that youâd used your favorite lavender honey soap. The one you saved for special occasions.Â
âDo you want help?â You asked, straightening and smoothing a hand over the edge of Frankieâs shirt sleeve. He nodded, a tiny bit of embarrassment pooling in his stomach. Not because he was nervous about you seeing him naked, because youâd already seen him naked multiple times and heâd stopped being ashamed a while ago. He just hated that he had to ask for help undressing, like he was a toddler unable to care for themself.Â
You, however, simply took the bottom edge of his shirt and lifted it, carefully folding the shirt once it was off and placing it on the bathroom counter. His pants followed, then his underwear and socks, until you were holding his hands and keeping him balanced as he stepped into the tub.Â
The water was perfectly warm, surrounding Frankie and giving him life as he sunk lower. You smiled, seeing his muscles finally relax somewhat. âWill you be okay if I go grab a cup of water for you?âÂ
Frankie nodded, watching you turn the water off and walk out of the bathroom, leaving the door open so he could hear you going down the stairs and filling a cup with water. You came back up as quickly as you could, soft music following you and growing louder as you got closer.Â
You set the water down on the counter, next to the folded clothes. Along with the cup, you put your phone down, still playing that gentle music.Â
âCâmere,â you murmured to Frankie, slowly dragging a stool over and sitting at the back of the tub. âCâmon honey, come here.âÂ
He moved without thinking, shifting in the water until he was in front of you, entirely vulnerable to your actions.Â
Those actions being you lifting a worn out plastic cup and slowly pouring the warm water over Frankieâs head. One hand moved to his forehead, shielding his face from the water. He leaned backwards, head tipping towards you. His eyes closed as you continued, rhythmically soaking his hair until you deemed it okay for shampoo.Â
Which was when Frankie really melted.Â
You smiled, watching every tiny movement he made as you massaged shampoo into his hair. His entire body went limp, softly saying things that werenât English as you kept going, if only to help relax him.Â
After shampoo came the conditioner, which he didnât fight you over. Usually, he just washed his hair and kept going, not bothering to do anything fancy to it. But under your firm fingers, he let you do whatever you wanted.Â
Finally, you were done, leaving Frankie with a bar of his favorite soap and a small kiss on the forehead.Â
âIâll be back, okay?â You said softly, holding his face in your hands.Â
Frankie hummed, still not ready for solid words in a language youâd understand yet. You smiled, kissing the tip of his nose and walking out, leaving him to wash his body on his own.Â
It was a laborious task for him at the moment, but by the time youâd returned, he had done it, and you rewarded him with ample praise as you drained the tub and helped him out.Â
âThink you can dry yourself off?â You asked, holding out a towel.Â
Frankie shrugged, looking down at the old towel you were offering. âAyudame?âÂ
You smiled. Over the years, Frankie and Santiago had been teaching you some Spanish, just in case, but mostly for fun. You knew the basics, and it was enough to know what Frankie needed right now. âOkay. Come closer honey.âÂ
Frankie grinned slightly at the nickname, and your heart swelled upon seeing his smile. âHow do you say that in Spanish?â You asked, starting to towel him dry.Â
âEl cariño.âÂ
You nodded, tapping his shoulder and nudging Frankie lower so you could reach his hair. âEl cariño,â you repeated softly, running your fingers through his hair and making it stick up. You smiled, handing him the towel. âThink you can do the rest?âÂ
Frankie nodded, so you left him alone to grab some spare clothes. Digging out an old ass shirt that no longer had a legible logo and a pair of sweatpants, you headed back into the bathroom, seeing Frankie already in his underwear.Â
âHere we are,â you said, holding out the sweatpants. âCan you get it?âÂ
Again, Frankie nodded, slowly putting his pants on. When you held his shirt out, he looked at you with pleading eyes, and you helped him slide it on.Â
âI think itâs time for bed,â you said, taking Frankieâs hand and guiding him to your bed. âLeft or right?âÂ
Frankie got into the bed, immediately sliding to the left side. You crawled into the bed as well, turning the lights out and letting the moon filtering through the slats in your blinds illuminate Frankieâs exhausted form.Â
He made a small noise, spurring you to scoot closer, until he was firmly cuddled up to your chest. You scratched through his damp hair, pressing kisses into his warm skin. You knew that tomorrow youâd have the usual Frankie back. Cheerful and goofy and simply a best friend. But tonight, right now, you got cuddly and broken Frankie. The Frankie who needed to be praised and held and slowly put back together again. The Frankie who needed a lover.Â
âI love you Frankie,â you murmured, looking down at the top of his head. âI love you so much.âÂ
âYo tambiĂ©n te amo, cariño,â Frankie mumbled, his half asleep voice gliding over you and giving you chills.Â
The next morning was nothing like you expected.Â
You woke up to the warmth of Frankieâs arms around you, cuddled up to him, head resting on his chest. You could hear his heartbeat and feel his chest rising and falling with gentle, half-asleep breaths. Rolling over and sitting up with the intent to check the time, you squeaked as Frankie pulled you back into his chest.Â
âFive more minutes, cariño,â he mumbled, eyes still closed as he chased another moment of sleep.Â
You sighed. âYou get another five Fish. I want coffee.âÂ
Frankie opened his eyes, showing heartbreaking betrayal. âStay?âÂ
You were a sucker for that look, so you took a deep breath and hunkered down for another five minutes.Â
Which turned into half an hour of mindless cuddling, but that was okay.Â
âHey Frankie,â you mumbled at one point, once the sun had fully risen and was painting your bedsheets with waves of golden light. âDid you mean it last night?âÂ
âYeah.â Frankie propped himself up on his elbow, looking at you. âDid you?âÂ
You sat up, reaching out to grab his face and kiss him, morning breath and all.Â
âYeah. I did.âÂ
Needless to say, Frankieâs bad days may have been terrible and numbing and so desolate he thought he had no one to turn to. But he didnât. He had you. He would always have you.
