âcould you be seen with me and still act proud?â
⢠Jing Yuan, Argenti, Aventurine, Dan Heng, Blade, Xiao, Childe, Wanderer, Zhongli
⢠Star Rail / Genshin x [GN] Reader
⼠(their answer + reaction to this question)
⼠(comfort / fluff)
⧠- JING YUAN
âWhy, of course. I would hold your hand up for the whole of the Xianzhou to see.â
This was pretty expected of the sly general. However, what was unexpected was the way he took you in his arms and lifted you upâbridal style. You begged him to put you down as he opened the doors of his and your room, now making his way outside to remind the whole Xianzhou that you're his and he's yours.
⧠- ARGENTI
âDearest loveâof course, I would be so proud to have the chance to take the hand of mortal beauty itself, and, if it were chivalrous, I would boast about your beauty everywhere I go.â
Ever so poetic, Argenti pulls your heart strings again with his creative (yet cheesy) lines. He loves you; that's a fact that nobody can deny, and he believes that you were sent down by Idrila herself with how attractive you are. Without a hesitant thought, he backs away and offers you his handâwill you accept the offer in which he takes you from place to place, hand in hand, to show the whole world that your his love?
⧠- AVENTURINE
âYou wanna take a bet? Here, I'll take you out to dinner if you guess my answer correctlyâget it wrong, and I decide on what I'll do with you.â
With a wink and a smile turning into a smirk, it's always hard to guess what Aventurine is thinking, but with the clock ticking, you hardly get time to really think, and so you curiously answer with âno.â A smile grows on his face, and he leans in close, holding your arms. He whispers in your ear, âI guess that means you have to do what I tell you tonight.â
⧠- DAN HENG
âOf course. I do... I do love you, after all.â
His sentences are kept short and simple (with a little bit of blush), just like how they always are. Now, unlike most people on this list, he isn't bringing you outside to let the world know that you're dating, but he would feel and does absolutely feel proud to have you as his love. He reassures you that he would never feel embarrassed or feel the need to hide his love for you, no matter the crowd he's surrounded by.
⧠- BLADE
âYes. Nobody's taking you, and nobody's taking me. Everyone had better know that you're mine, and the same goes for me.â
His response was rather threatening, but that's typical with Blade. His words are as sharp as his sword, but they're also as meaningful as sharp; his intent is nowhere near ill towards you, and he only means that he's dedicated himself to you already, and it's a dedication that he would never feel embarrassed or guilty for. Now, take his handâhe'll promise the world that you're his tonight.
⧠- XIAO
âYes. Why wouldn't I be?â
In Adeptus Xiao language, he means, âyes, of course I would. Archons, holding your hand is a blessing itself.â And, though he doesn't admit it, he still feels it. You are his first and only love in several millennia. You, of every person to ever set foot in Liyue, managed to capture his heart when nobody else could. Xiao loves you, and he feels that he will forever, so he prays you'd banish him if he ever hurts you or hides his love away for something trivial because that means the karma got to him and that he's gone mad.
⧠- CHILDE
âOf course, babe! You know what? Let's go on a date right nowâ everything's on me!â
And that's simply Childe. Without a word, he disappears and reappears with your favorite outfit in hand, and has you put it on (in private as he waits outside the bedroom door), and when you're done, he's suddenly dressed nicely with roses in hand, and he takes you out on a date. How? No clue, but know that he's letting the whole region know that you're his right here and right now.
⧠- WANDERER
âHuh? That's a stupid question. Why are you asking me, anyway?â
Yes. He means yes in every way possible. His sharp tongue speaks the opposite, but Wanderer truly means that he would show you off to the world if he had to. If he has to, mainly because he finds the concept of love in its entirety as stupid, but he also loves you too much to let you leave him, let alone have someone else think that you're some vacant partner just waiting to be taken. Now, hold both of his hands. He'll glide you above Sumeru City and show everyone there that you're his if you're still thinking about the question.
⧠- ZHONGLI
âWell, of course. Would you like to take a walk around the harbor for me to prove that?â
Zhongli senses your insecurity, and he wishes to alleviate your worries, so he takes you to a popular teahouse by a bridge. It's not that grand or special, but he keeps you close to him as you both sip away at your tea and embrace the company of one another.
yes, this was a heathers reference.

cherry popper â
sunghoon x reader
getting your cherry popped by your enemy
mature content featured, read at your own discretion
note: i know i know i said a writing schedule but this is my issue â i just want you all to read what i have planned so bad! iâll start the schedule soon, ignore my last updated post
âyou are infuriating!â you screeched, stomping your foot to the ground like a child.
âno, you are!â
âfor goodness sake, you both are infuriating!â your professor interrupted your arguing with park sunghoon.
your worst enemy since middle school. now both ready to graduate university soon, nothing has changed.
you and sunghoon turned to your professor with looks of disgust towards one another. your professor has had you both in her classes for 3 semesters as you both shared a major.
âiâve dealt with you two for too long! always arguing before, after, and during my lectures! you two canât even stop bickering long enough to enjoy this nice class trip!â the professor rambled.
âprofessor, i really was trying to enjoy this tripâ,â the professor cut you off
âno you havenât! any given moment you started an argument with mr. park, knowing he will argue back. you two leave me no choice, you are to stay here in your rooms at the hotel, my assistant will be staying on the floor if you two need anything. heâll most likely try to find a bonding exercise for you two.â
âif we stay here, that means we miss the exhibits!â sunghoon exclaimed, dark bushy eyebrows furrowed in confusion, hurt, and anger towards you.
the professor shrugged. âhopefully itâll teach you a lesson like i teach my children.â she scolded, waving her finger at both of you.
you and sunghoon stood in the hallway of the hotel dumbfounded that you would be missing the exhibit you both were so excited to view. three months youâve been waiting for this trip!
you groaned in annoyance, âyou just have to ruin everything, huh?â
sunghoon turned to you wide eyed, âme? youâre the one always starting shit between us two!â
âyou could just ignore me.â you shrugged trying to place the blame all on him.
âignore you? iâve tried, and you never let it go. you keep pestering like an annoying little bug until i reply to you.â
your lip turned up, âlisten here you littleâ,â
âfinish that sentence and iâll ask the hotel to make you clean toilets.â your professors graduate assistant snapped.
you and sunghoon turned around to face the young guy who couldnât be more than 3 years older than you.
âfaked being ill because my girlfriend happened to come down to the city to see me. havenât seen her in four months as we live apart,â the assistant began explaining, âbut now i have to babysit two annoying little young adults who canât get along for nothing!â
âman, you donât have to babysit us. we can care for ourselves.â sunghoon stated.
âand risk you two sneaking off?â the assistant shook his head.
you crossed your arms, âso what do you want us to do?â
âthe hotel is low on staff in the kitchen. they just need help with dishwashing and putting together cutlery.â
âno way! i donât want my fingers to turn into raisins!â
âthatâs why gloves were invented, cherry.â
you narrowed your eyes, ready to stab sunghoon if you could, especially at the nickname heâs given you for the past year.
âyou two, kitchen, now. you can go to your separate rooms afterwards. donât snitch on me, help the kitchen out, and iâll tell the professor you two got along well enough to be able to join in on the activities tomorrow.â
âdeal.â both you and sunghoon agreed.
︜ęŚęˇâĄęˇęŚď¸ś
it was all going wellâdecently well for you and sunghoon until you dropped a plate in the sink, causing the water to splash both you and him.
he splashed water back, so now you and him were banned from dishwashing and instead wrapping cutlery for future hotel guests.
about an hour later, you both were only half way done through the giant bucket of clean dishes.
âthis is exhausting!â you sighed. âmy neck is starting to hurt.â
âstop whining and just keep going.â sunghoon replied quietly.
âwhatâs got your panties in a twist?â
sunghoon dropped the fork and spoon he was holding. âmhm, i donât know, maybe you? always starting arguments with me.â
âyouâre the one who started it, park sunghoon.â
âwhen did i ever start? you are the one who started it back in middle school.â
âmiddle school? sunghoon, i never even talked to you in middle school until that day you said my hair bow was ugly.â you reminded him.
thatâs when sunghoon became your enemy. maybe for a stupid reason, but as a young girl, you had tried a new hair style with a hair bow after your mom made you get a hair cut, that the salon butchered.
you were insecure about it for a while, but it only really unsettled you when sunghoon came up to you one day during lunch telling you that your âhair bow was ugly, and nothing can make your hair look pretty again.â
since then, youâve always sought out to ruin park sunghoon. whether it was getting better grades, to become top of the class. becoming class president so heâd be class vice president.
or even childish things like a whoopie cushion, taking a picture of him picking his nose in private, and even starting arguments over small things.
but the biggest would have to be when you started dating his friend second to last year in high school, you two only ending the relationship a little over a year ago.
kang taehyun.
it was a sneaky move to date your enemyâs friend. but it worked in your favor as just your presence annoyed sunghoon. he started to dislike you even more then.
but it wasnât like sunghoon and taehyun were best friends, they just happened to be in the same friend group.
sunghoon remembered the day he called your hair bow ugly. he actually didnât think it was ugly, but he was upset about what he overheard you and your friends at the time saying about him.
then when sunghoon found out you were actually dating taehyun, he couldnât believe it. he would tease you and only bring it up to taehyun the reasoning for you to date his friend was to annoy him.
sunghoon used to hate seeing you around all the time when he just wanted to be with his friends. he especially disliked whenever taehyun would be too handsy with you.
âi only called your hair bow ugly because you and your friends made fun of me.â sunghoon sighed deeply. his lips went into a thin straight line as he went back to his deep thinking, focused on wrapping the silverware.
you looked at him surprised and confused. âsunghoon, when did my friends and i ever make fun of you?â
sunghoon sighed once more, wanting to forget the whole incident, but knew now was probably a good, but very late time to confront you about it.
âi overheard you all laughing at the fact i was a figure skater at the time, and said something about me being feminine.â
you stood there, too much in shock. your brain racked old memories and conversations, trying to remember that exact time. as you stood and stared, sunghoon continue on with the kitchen chore.
then it hit you, and you slightly chuckled. âsunghoon, we werenât laughing at you. we were admiring you. the fact you was a boy doing figure skating? we were so impressed! and the feminine thing was a compliment, i promise! i swear as young girls we were jealous because you had a nice body we were jealous of at the time.â
sunghoon snapped his head toward you, observing you for any chance of a lie. he saw none as you stood there and smirked.
âyou really called my hair bow ugly, to upset me, because you misheard my conversation with my friends?â
sunghoon scoffed, âwell i mean, as a young boy, it was hard enough being a figure skater. i was just, donât know, very introverted and shy.â
which he still was most times.
âyou arenât introverted or shy around me, sunghoon.â
âbecause i canât be. you drive me up the wall on my nerves.â
you laughed. sunghoon liked the sound. he always did.
then he asked, âdid i really hurt your feelings by saying your bow was ugly?â
you nodded. âyes you did. that started a war.â
âa war between us that i think we can now end?â
︜ęŚęˇâĄęˇęŚď¸ś
after another hour, you all were close to finished when the kitchen staff let you go. rubbing your neck, you complained, excited to shower and just lay around for the rest of the night.
it was only 6 in the evening, and the exhibit went on until 9 pm, and you both were sure the professor and classmates would be off doing their own thing for the rest of the night as curfew wasnât until 1 am.
âwanna watch a movie?â sunghoon asked, startling you. âi mean, thereâs nothing else going on for us, and we could, maybe, keep each other entertained?â
you shrugged. âsure. just let me shower first. my room or yours?â
âmine. my friend and roommate, heeseung, snuck in some beer.â
you smiled. âperfect.â
half an hour later, you both were showered, in comfy clothes, and in sunghoonâs hotel room, sitting on the couch at the end of the beds watching a movie.
two drinks in, sunghoon was feeling bold. âwhy did you date taehyun?â
being caught off guard, you slowly turned your head, then tilted. âuh, why?â
âdid you only date him because of me? to make me mad or jealous?â
âmore to make you mad.â you teased with a wink.
âwell congrats, you made me both mad and jealous by dating my friend.â sunghoon snickered, sipping his bottle of beer. he was no where near drunk or even tipsy. just a bit of extra courage running through his veins.
it was him watching you out of the side of his eye that got him this way. your laugh, your smile, the smell of you, so intoxicating.
you were more shocked and confused than ever. âsunghoon, what?â
sunghoon leaned down to look at your face, âtaehyun used to bitch and moan that he could never get in your pants. that you would tease him, only willing to dry hump with him.â
you swallowed but rolled your eyes as well. taehyun always did complain that you never let him have sex with you. it never really bothered you.
taehyun knew you were a virgin. what he didnât know was that whenever you thought about finally being intimate with him, all you thought about what sunghoon. all you could see was sunghoon. your thoughts were consumed of sunghoon whenever you thought anything sexual.
âwhy wouldnât you have sex with your boyfriend, cherry?â
âwhy do you call me cherry?â
âanswer me first.â sunghoon placed the bottle on the floor bedside him so he could turn his body to face you once more.
âuh, well i just didnât want to have sex with him.â you shrugged one shoulder.
âwhy not?â
âeh eh, i answered you, your turn.â you tsked.
sunghoon bit his lower lip, staring at your lips as he replied, âbecause of that cherry lip gloss you always wear.â
you were wearing it now. not only did it look good against your skin, it tasted good too, whenever you got your nervous antics and chewed on your lip.
sunghoon always observed you putting that cherry lip gloss on your lips. it started with the cherry chapstick in high school, but just a little over a year ago you started wearing the cherry lip gloss.
ânow answer me.â sunghoon demanded.
you took in a deep breath wondering how much or little to tell him. âwell,â
ââwas it because he wasnât me?â sunghoon interrupted, your eyes going wide.
âsunghoon, no, what would give you that idea?â
âhe told me he heard you calling out another guyâs name while playing with a toy of yours. he looked at me with anger and disbelief as if i had something to do with it.â
your eyes still wide, mouth shaped into an âo.â you laughed nervously waving sunghoon off, âah, he probably misheard me, thatâs all.â
âi donât believe you cherry.â sunghoon stated, standing up from the couch only to stand directly in front of you. eye level now with his crotch, you looked at him with innocent and confused eyes.
âsunghoonâ,â
sunghoon stopped you mid sentence just by his thumbs hooking to the hem of his sweats, only pulling them down a little, teasing to pull out his cock.
âhave you only kissed and dry humped him? what else have you done with him while thinking of me?â sunghoon clicked his tongue.
you shook your head. âsunghoon youâre mistaken!â
âsucked taehyunâs dick while thinking of me? mhm, even dry hump him thinking and wishing it was my lap you were rocking against?â
each sentence, sunghoon leaned in closer, mouth inches from yours. he could smell the cherry lip gloss of yours. excited to taste it finally.
you closed your eyes becauseâit was the truth. all of it. you blurted, âi never had sex with him because iâm a virgin!â
sunghoon chuckled, raising to his full height again. with a smirk, âmhm so my cherry was waiting to get her cherry popped by her enemy.â
you tightened your legs closer together for friction, but also to prevent yourself from becoming any wetter at just his words.
your movement didnât go unnoticed from sunghoon. he got down on his knees in front of you. âhas my cherry thought about getting ate out from her enemy? have you imagined it was me instead of taehyun going down on you?â
you shook your head, wanting to not believe this was happening. it wasnât until you felt sunghoonâs teeth bite your thigh through your own bottoms, you snapped your eyes open.
âwhat was that for!â
sunghoon laughed, âbe honest baby.â then, you nodded. âguess iâll have to make your imagination become reality, huh?â
quick and easy, he got your bottoms off of your legs, and used his thumb to tease your clit through your underwear. a wet spot already beginning to form.
sunghoonâs eyes sparkled with neediness and excitement. he got up from his knees, you internally protesting, until his lips captures yours into a searing kiss.
he whispered against your lips, âso tasty, cherry,â as he continued to intensely work his lips against yours, loving the cherry lip gloss against his own lips.
he soon fell back to his knees, kissing up your right thigh before he moved your underwear to the side, poking his index finger to your cunt. he was met with tightness and some resistance, but only because it was a new feeling, new fingers for you. long, fingers to be exact.
sunghoon poked his index finger in your hole, followed by his middle finger, your legs opening wider for him, head rolling to the back of the couch with a groan. your hands gripped the couch, fingers digging into the cushions.
sunghoon then added a third finger, his ring finger, and your right leg went to hook over his shoulder, him holding your left wide open for him.
it was so much you wanted to snap your legs closed. sunghoon rocked his fingers in and out a few times, until your wetness covered his fingers, and he pulled out, quickly undressing you of your underwear. but just as quickly as his fingers were gone, it was replaced with his tongue and lips.
âsungâhoon!â you sang into a moan, left hand gripping his locks.
he moaned into your cunt, lapping up the juices you had to offer to him, occasionally using his k-9 teeth to nibble on your folds and clit. when his lips found home onto your clit, using his tongue to swirl, teeth to nibble, three of his fingers entered back into your cunt, no warning or teasing. he began rocking his fingers in and out in a medium pace, his tongue flicking your bud.
your chest and stomach began to tighten, your eyes rolling to the back of your head, head rolling onto the back of the couch from left to right. he removed his lips, fingers still, only to spit on your cunt, and got right back to work as if he didnât pause to begin with.
this orgasm was about to be intense. taehyun never gave you mind blowing head like this. he was always decent, though. but sunghoonâs tongue was magic and had you coming way too soon.
âhoon!â you moaned loudly, hoping no one outside the door could hear you. âiâmâhoon, iâcomeâmy goodness!â you babbled.
sunghoon used only his tongue while you came down from your first orgasm of the night.
your body jerked from the overstimulation, you pushing sunghoonâs head away.
âtaste so good, cherry. better than i imagined.â he whispered once again, against your lips, before kissing you, his tongue poking through to find yours.
while kissing him, sunghoon grabbed you by your thighs so he picked you up and held you, turning around so he sat on the couch with you straddling him.
your wetness immediately started to stain his sweats, but he didnât care. âhump me, cherry.â
âlike this?â you asked. he wanted you to hump him? you bare below, him with his sweats?
you squealed when a palm of his came down to your bare ass. âit wasnât an option, cherry.â
you nodded, biting your lip, as you began to rock your hips back and forth and in circles around his cock which was imprinting through his sweats. your cunt could feel the outline of him, getting wetter with each movement.
soon, you were on your way to your second orgasm. sunghoonâs hands gripped your waist, guiding your movements as you became more sloppy, only worried about reaching your second orgasm.
âthatâs it cherry, use me like youâve always wanted.â fuck sunghoonâs words were not (but was) helping.
your hands gripped his shoulders, trying to steady yourself as your movements increased as your orgasm was approaching.
your thighs started to become wet from your own juices, a big spot covering sungoonâs outline.
sunghoon pulled you closer as you came, he began sucking and kissing your neck, sending you over the edge even more.
your movements slowed down, as his hands stayed glued to your hips. your breathing became heavy against his collarbone, you giving it a peck, leaving a lip mark.
youâve had two orgasms, sunghoon none. you leaned back to look sunghoon in the eyes. âwhat about you coming?â
sunghoonâs lips perked up, âcherry, iâll come, donât you worry.â
sunghoon from underneath, pulled down his sweat pants, your thighs and cunt somewhat hovering over him. you felt his tip brush against your folds, your body shivering with excitement.
you only hoped your toys prepared you enough for this moment. sunghoon pushed his sweats off as far as he could, down to his ankles. his shirt came off next, along with yours, leaving you both completely naked.
âcherry, i hope you used a dildo big enough.â he stated as he pulled a condom out from between the couch cushions. you were to entranced to even comment on that.
you bit your lip, âi hope so too, hoon.â you sighed against his lips, kissing him, as he helped you ease down on his hard cock after he put on the condom.
you bit down on his lip when he fully pushed you down on his length, a loud moan coming from you both.
âfuck, so tight cherry.â sunghoon groaned, head leaning back against the couch. âthose toys did nothing to prepare you for me.â
you stayed still, both in a comfortable position. âiâm scared to move.â
âjust go slow, okay?â sunghoonâs fingertips ran up and down your spine to comfort you. with a sigh of pleasure, you lifted your hips to the tip only, to slowly push back down.
you were sure you felt him in your stomach. slowly, you kept a rhythm of up and down on his length, occasionally rocking your clit forward for friction.
soon your thighs were starting to tense and become tired. âhoon, canâcan you take over please?â you sighed against his cheek, nose resting in his neck.
without even removing himself from in you, sunghoon stood up from the couch, your wetness dripping in between the both of you. he carried you over to his bed, your legs wrapped around him.
he laid you on the bed, again, never slipping from inside you. his hand found one of your hips, the other resting against your cheek.
âlet me know if itâs too much.â sunghoon stated before he pulled out completely only to push back with such force, your cunt squelched, your eyes shutting, a loud moan leaving your lips.
âfuck! sunghoon!â
you wasnât expecting that. but honestly, you wasnât expecting or even wanting him to be gentle.
for the next however long, which felt like hours, sunghoon rutted his cock in and out of your cunt with ease, your wetness spilling out on your thighs and his.
his thumb came down to your clit, rubbing left, right, up, and down, stimulating you just right to bring you to your third orgasm of the night.
âthatâs it cherry, baby come on my cock. come on your first cock. fuck!â sunghoon moaned. âsuch a dirty slut thinking about your enemy while with that ex of yours.â
âhoonâsorry,â you apologized for no reason at all. why was you apologizing?
âwanted me to be the one to pop your cherry? got your wish.â sunghoon sighed, his pace of thrusts speeding up and becoming sloppy as he was chasing his first orgasm. âfucking whore thinking of me while playing with your toys. imagining it was me eating you out. kissing you. all while withâ,â
with a loud, explosive moan, you cut sunghoon off as you came for the third time. no squirting involved, but you did have so much wetness dripping out of you, anyone could be mistaken.
sunghoon released into the condom with a low, throaty, growl-like moan, collapsing on top of you before rolling off.
︜ęŚęˇâĄęˇęŚď¸ś
sometime in the middle of the night, you heard hush whispers. you didnât move an inch, only somewhat, subconsciously listening.
âsorry man, i can ask her to leave?â
âabsolutely not! iâll go bunk with her roommate for this trip. once i tell her why i need somewhere to sleep she will be more than thrilled.â
it was heeseung, coming in after 3 am. once he saw you and sunghoon in the same bed, he didnât even ask questions, only smiled.
about damn time you two fucked the anger out of one another.
sunghoon crawled back in bed next to you, your body only covered by a shirt of his. sunghoon stared at your sleeping figure with a smile.
you were finally his.

Lift Me Off My Feet
Chapter 1: New Beginnings
Masterlist
Original Thought - Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Part 4 - Part 5 - Part 6 - Part 7 - Part 8 - Part 9 - Part 10 - Part 11 - Part 12
This was going to be a little something, but I got carried away, anyway, enjoy.
Thinking about reader entering the elevator to find the whole 141 fully dressed and armed inside. đ
Warning: There is a little smut ahead â¤ď¸ Gaz x Reader
âThere really is no need!â You exclaim, finally coming out of the paralyzed state you were in. Just as the door was about to close you managed to slip out, forcing the door to open again by detecting the movement. âI'll just go out the way I came in, no need to worry.âÂ
You try to make your way to the car, walking backwards so that you don't have to break eye contact with them since they are looking at you like you are an absolute lunatic. Maybe you are.Â
The only thing you can see of them is their eyes as they look at you, and then the three of them that are on the right turn to the one on the left. The one that spoke to you and to the radio.Â
He puts his hand on the door again, and slowly turns his head to the one closer to him. Then he nods in your direction and says only loud enough for them to hear: âGrab her.â
Not needing to hear anything, and trusting your guts, the second the man puts a foot down to begin walking your way, you bolt, running as fast as you can to your car.Â
Thanking whoever is listening that still has your keys in your hands, you unlock your car and as soon as you reach it, you open the driver's door and enter, closing it behind you.Â
Or trying to.Â
Before you can yourself in your car, a hand holds the door and pushes it back open. He tries to grab your arm so you move to the copilot seat, trying to move away knowing that there is no way out but still trying.Â
You push your back against the door, desperate to create space as the man starts to enter your car and you try to kick him away. âPlease let me leave! I don't know what's going on, I can't say anything if I don't know what's going on! Please!â
He doesn't respond with his voice but in his eyes, you see something similar to pity that makes you wonder what you must look like, glassy eyes with tears pricking at your eyes from fear, trying to move as away as possible from him in your minuscule car and trying to kick him away but with barely any strength too scared to actually hurt him and make it more difficult for you.Â
The door behind your back suddenly opens and before you can do anything, a pair of strong arms grab you by your torso keeping your arms close to your chest and unable to move them. âGotcha!â Says the voice behind you with a strong accent and almost fun in his voice, like he just won a tag game.Â
You trash around trying to get free, unable to even reach the ground, tears beginning to flow down your cheek. âPlease, please, I promise I won't say anything, ple-â A massive hand covers your mouth, silencing your pleas and forcing you to look at the third man that followed you to your card. Brown eyes look at you with furrowed eyes and say slowly, almost testing how stupid you are. âAre you going to make this easy for everyone, or do you just want to make it harder, angel?â
You nod your head, afraid to even try and speak. âYes? Yes, what? Are you going to behave? Good girl.â He says as you keep nodding and you see his eyes twirl the slightest with a smile. âCâmon, Johnny, bring her to the elevator.âÂ
The four of you make your way inside of the elevator when the first man who spoke to you remains holding the door shaking his head at you as you are dragged inside. âNow why would you try something like that, you silly girl?â He says taking something from his back pocket.
âMaybe she likes to be chased.â Says the man that you tried to kick before and you quickly shake your head still unable to talk earning a chuckle from him.
âWell, we can't have any more of that. Put her behind Kyle, Soap.â Says the first man, and you can finally see that what he picked from his pocket is a pair of cuffs and you begin to trash again. Futile, you know it, since the man behind you (Soap, you guess), holds your hands putting them around the manâs waist (Kyle was his name?) and you quickly feel the cuff go around your wrist keeping your plush against Kyle's back, the indents and trinkets of his backpack pressing against your face. âNow, no more tears, kid. You brought this upon yourself, so no more games.â He says looking at you poking his head from the other side of the man, but you can help it back to let the tears flow free. âAw, câmon, lass. Don't cry, yer be free in a bit. Look, Captain has the keys, we'll let you go soon, see? Right her- Shit!âÂ
The Scottish man behind you was saying, as he pointed and moved around you, and when he was about to point to the keys in his captain's hand, his eyes were not on the keys but instead on your face. So he didn't measure the distance and instead knocked the keys out of his captain's hand.Â
So now, the five of you look as the key falls, not to the floor, but straight to the small space under the elevator door just as it closes. Getting out of reach, and possibly never to be seen again.Â
âJohnny, you fucking twat!â
Maybe if you did some overtime today, if you came across one more red light on your way back, if you stayed in your car a couple of minutes more you wouldn't have found yourself in this situation.
But you didn't.
So here you are now, hiding your face on the back of some military man, crying out of absolute fear for your wellbeing, handcuffed so you can't run and hearing the four men on the elevator argue with each other.Â
Until an especially hard sob escapes your mouth making you bite your lips to silence yourself and everyone else to shut up.Â
A warm hand engulges yours, assuming that it is Kyle's trying to calm you down by drawing little circles on your hand. âIt's okay, luv. We have more keys, just not here. You just gotta stick with us for a little longer, and then you'll be back to your life, aâright?â
You hiccup as you try to stop crying, still biting your lips and out of reflex, you move your hand to grab one of his fingers, trying to ground you and get calmer.Â
You notice a hand going down your back making you jump and grab Kyle's finger harder before you hear someone shushing you. âWhen we get out there, I'm gonna need you to be quiet, alright? And move along with Sargent Garrick, careful with your feet⌠Look at me, sweetheart. Let me see your pretty face.âÂ
You slowly move your head to face him, you recognize the voice as the Captain's voice but you finally see his face as he has moved his mask and now you can see the lower part of his face, mainly covered still by his beard and moustache, but with a kind smile on his face. A soft sigh escapes his lips when he sees you and it makes you think about what you must look like.Â
Raw, plush and red lips from biting them, glossy eyes and wet cheeks flushed against the sergeantâs back; an absolute mess.
âPoor birdie, what have you gotten yourself into?â He says as he cups your head. âYou are going to be good, right? We are going to take care of you, so no need to be so afraid. Nothing bad is going to happen to you as long as you are with us. It is all going to be over soon, luv.â
He caresses your head once more, and when the elevator reaches your floor, he puts the mask back up. The four of them get the weapons in their hands and begin to beeline out of the elevator.
Kyle gives you one last squeeze to your hands before letting them go to grab his gun and walk out last of the elevator with you behind.Â
âBravo-6 to Watcher-1, we are on the 6th floor, moving to the objective apartment.â The captain says walking first.Â
âWatcher-1 to all, the apartment is the 608. Proceed with caution, we don't know how many are inside.â
âRoger that, are there any secondary entries, Watcher?â
âAny available on time, Bravo-6. Just the main door.â
âYou can jump from my terrace.â You whisper to Kyle who whips his head so fast when he hears you talk you are surprised he didn't get dizzy. âI live next door.â
âQuiet, birdie!â Kyle screams-whispers back, gaining the attention of the captain.Â
âWhat did she say?â Ask the captain back.
âShe said she lives next door to the objective, that we can jump from the terrace. Worth a look?â Kyle asks back.
âWhere do you have the keys?â A deep voice coming from the only man you don't know the name jet asks next to you, and you push your butt out.
âBack pocket.â You say looking at him.
âLucky Lt.â Soap mumbles somewhere close.
The unknown man gets his hand down your pocket and grabs your keys without unnecessarily lingering.Â
You tell them your apartment number and when they open you explain to them that it is in your bedroom, and they just need to jump over the half wall on the side.Â
âGhost and Soap go through the outside, Gaz you coming with me. Ghost, check how many people are inside and we will enter at the same time.â Captain orders and you decide that you have already heard enough.
You know bullets are about to fly everywhere and blood is about to run and you don't want neither to see nor to hear any of that.Â
So you hide your face on Kyle's back and grab his belt to steady yourself. You hear the Captain's voice shout something and after that, it is all chaos. You focus all of your senses on moving in tandem with Kyle, making sure not to get your feet on his way.Â
At some point, you feel a sharp pain a bit higher than your elbow, but you ignore it, way too terrified to check it.
It is all a blur of noise and movement, but finally, there is no more shooting and you can only hear an angry man shout.Â
You finally pop your head around Kyle to check who is screaming and you come across your neighbour, shouting at the captain until he sees you.
âYou! I knew you were a fucking spy, you fucking whore! You don't know who you just fuck with! You are dead, bitch! You heard me? DEAD!â
âDarling, he is not getting close to you.â Kyle tries to reassure you.
You are currently sitting on his lap, strangling his legs, still cuffed around him. You both are sitting on the back of the ambulance, as the paramedic takes care of the wound on your arm. Not that you care about it, becoming minuscule in your hierarchy of problems after receiving a death threat from a terrorist.Â
âYes, he is!â You argue back as you bawl your eyes out on his shoulder. âHe is and he is going to kill me! And I didn't do anything!âÂ
âHey, look at me, doll.â He says as he cups your face with his hands. âYou are with us, right? Nothing is gonna happen to you if you are with us. Nothing's gonna hurt you if you stick with us. Do you not trust me?â He asks, looking at you with almost puppy eyes, he follows your gaze when you look at the wound on your elbow and looks back to him as he changes his expression to look at you with a bright smile. âNo need to answer, doll.â
âHow's the damage?â Captain Price (as they told you) asks, walking closer to the both of you.Â
âNo damage to the bone, but the soft tissue will need some time to heal.â The paramedic says as he gives the last sutures and puts on the dressing. âAnd either she is a fighter, or she was busy crying about something else, but she didn't complain once.â
âAh, she's a fighter, that I know.â Price coos at you petting your head again and you feel yourself blush.
âDo you have the key for the cuffs, Captain?â You ask to change the subject and he smiles mischievously when he hears the way you call him.
âDon't call me that, sweet girl. I'm not your Captain, call me John, Price if you are not comfortable with firsts name.â He says and you nod letting him know you understand. âAnd I asked about the keys, but the master key is at the base. So guess you have to stick around with us for a bit more, sorry dear.â
You hide your face on Kyle's neck again sighing feeling your tears sting in your eyes. A sob escapes your lips and automatically both Price and Kyle are shushing and cooing at you.Â
âWhat's making you so upset, doll? Are you uncomfortable with the sergeant?â Price asks, rubbing your back and you shake your head. âThen what is it? Use your words, love, please.â
âI'm just exhausted⌠I just wanted to go to bed⌠I'm so tiredâŚâ You mumble against Kyle's skin provoking him goosebumps and a sight to leave his lips.
âLet's get going then, the earlier we get to base the earlier you get back home.â He pats Kyle on the other shoulder and he stands up, you in his arms, as if you were weightless to the taller man.
You don't comment on the fact that he holds you from your ass, itâs too comfortable being held and youâd rather take it than to test your legs and force yourself to walk.Â
Price opens the door to the minivan and Kyle sits with you on his lap. Price closes the door, circles the car and opens the door to sit on the other side. You look around quickly to see Ghost driving and Soap on the copilot seat.
After a couple of minutes of the drive, you notice Price slips a bit on his seat, just enough to rest his head on the headrest, and he puts his hat over his face to shield himself from the street lights as he crosses his arm to sleep for the rest of the drive.
And you envy him because you wish you could sleep too. If it wasn't because it seems like Ghost is catching every single curb and bump on the road, and every time he does, your and Kyleâs crotches rub each other making you both groan softly.
His hands find their way to your waist as you reposition yourself on his lap and he whispers to your ear. âYou gotta empty that pretty head of yours, luv. It'll help you relax.â
You notice the growing bulge pressing right to your cunt, and when Kyle begins to move your hips back and forth against it⌠you let him.Â
âSuch a sweet girl, hm?â He mumbles as he drops wet open mouth kisses on your neck. âPoor, poor birdie. Getting involved in such a nasty situation, because of somebody else's mistakes.â
Little sighs escape your lips as you grab his t-shirt trying to not make any noise, the captain still sleeping on just two seats to your left.
You should be embarrassed, ashamed of yourself, afraid of these men you just met, of doing such a nasty thing in front of three other men even if they haven't noticed jet.Â
But Kyle's hardening cock is still brushing against your cunt and it is making it really hard to focus on anything else.
Enjoying his freedom of movement, he undoes the first button of your work shirt, just to keep kissing your neck lower, grazing your collarbone.
His fingertips grab your hips harder, making it easier to move against him.Â
âHelping us so much, letting us enter your house, your bedroom, taking the bullet like a champ. The trainees could learn from you. Moving so in sync with me, I didn't step on you even once. But you like moving with me don't you, sweet girl, hm?â He asks against your ear, making you shudder as you keep moving against them.
You can feel your panties get soaked with your arousal, the mix of Kyle's praises being whispered to your skin, his hard cock throbbing again and again against you, your ego inflating because of it, knowing you are affecting him just as he is affecting you, his warm hands on your waist.
âTake what you need, sweet girl. Take it, luv.â He mumbles letting his head rest on the seat headrest as his hand moves down to your ass impulsing you.
You can feel your climax coming closer and closer every second passing, but then Kyle moves you slightly back and the pressure moves to your clothed clit and you hide your face on his neck biting down as the orgasm washes over you.
Kyle goes back to whispering on your neck. âKeep moving, doll. Please, please, a little bit more, just a bit more, I know you can do it, please, doll⌠you are driving me crazy, pleaseâŚâ he begs softly as he moves his hips against yours making you gasp against his skin. Warm breath against the drool you just let on his skin making him shudder grunting softly just before he cums on his pants against your cunt.Â
So close yet so farÂ
I have never in my life written smut before, so let me know how catastrophic that was.
Anyway, sorry if it is messy, I really have no clue where I'm taking this. Let me know if there any scenarios you would like to happen đ
And I can't express how happy I am that so many people liked the first part, really, thanks so much.

World/Insured Part 3
Stanford Pines x Sibling!Reader/Stanley Pines x Sibling!Reader
â hope you guys r liking it so far!! :p
â 4,4k words
âś âCan we talk about [Name]?â Ford suddenly brings up one day. The waves of tourists have been moderately slow for the day, allowing Stan and Ford to kick back and relax for once. And in the midst of sitting down on the couch, his mind dwelled over to the thought of you. Stan let out a long sigh as he sat down, pitt cola in hand. Stan was trying to break free from his alcohol addiction, Ford noted. âSure, what do you want to talk about?â The causality held in Stanâs words made Ford uneasy. He was so unnaturally calm with his words, at least the last time he brought you up, he can sense the agitation in his words, but he couldnât find any dripping anger from him now. Mustering up all the courage he had left, he asked; âHow were they?â He felt his mouth run dry. Out of everything he couldâve asked, he asked that? All the questions he had were out the window and off into the woods, leaving him scrambling for words. Taking a sip from his soda, he said, âDo you want to know how they felt immediately after they left with me?â Ford nods. âWell, being fifteen and a rage of hormones, they pretty much hated you.â Stanâs eyes glance over to Ford whose face could visibly read hurt. âIâm just kidding!â Stan cackled, shoving Ford. âThey were ripped apart. I remember they told me how they felt everything and nothing at the same time, real poetic than one.â He takes another sip. âThey missed you so much while I hated your guts. I couldnât think of you without seeing red and they couldnât think of you without crying.â He swirled the drink in the can, looking down to his shuffling feet. âWhat did you guys do to survive?âÂ
âś âI enrolled them into a high school. I didnât want them to be stupid like me, ya know? And while they were in highschool, I started my business which earned us money to get by.â Stan told him. âWould you even call what you did a business?â Ford said with his eyebrow raised. âHey!â Stan rolled his eyes, placing the can of soda down on the floor. âOnce we got banned from a few states, [Name] put their foot down and encouraged me to get a job. And guess what, I landed a pretty good job! My history of stealing peoples money was long gone, until now,â Stan quietly said the last part. âAnd we were living pretty comfortably. I got us a nice house, a good car and [Name] graduated highschool and they got a job as manager of some sort, canât really remember.â Stan scratched his chin idly. âThey were on their way to move out and take their business elsewhere when you decided to show your face.â Stan cleared his throat, looking at Ford. âThey talked about you a lot.â He softly added. âI saw how they lit up when they saw me for the first time. They looked so much older.â Ford said. âI mean, yeah, thatâs what happens when you miss, like, 10 years of their life.â Ford ignored Stanâs comments and mulled over his thoughts. After a moment, he spoke up. âThank you for talking about them, Stan.â Stan shot him a smile. âOf course, talking about them wasnât as bad as I thought it was going to be.â Since then, Stan would share stories of you whenever Ford asked, ranging from embarrassing ones, to oneâs where it was a little harder for Stan to tell. But in the end, it brought them closer together and kept the memory of you alive.Â
âś Much to Fordâs dismay, the whole shack was rearranged to be a tourist trap. By day, they were busy ripping people of their money and by night, they buried themselves in their work, fixing what they could while simultaneously searching for the second book. And before they knew it, they were in their late 50âs. Adjusting his fez, he smiles at himself through the mirror. âStan!â Ford bursts through his room, starling Stan. âGeez, Ford! A little warning next time?â Ford stammers over to him. âNo time for that!â He huffs out. âThe book! I-I canât find it!â Stanâs face falls. âWhat?! What happened to it?â Ford opened his mouth to answer when Soos yelled out; âMr. Pines!â Stan curses to himself, that must be the kids. âDo you have any idea where it could be?â Stan asks. Out of all the days something couldâve gone wrong, why today? âI think maybe the gnomes took it?â Stan was ready to scream again when Soos called for them again. âI want you to go and look for the book.â Stan insisted, pointing a finger at him. âIâm not coming with you to get Dipper and Mabel?â Ford gasped out, his hand slapping on his chest. âNo! Because you lost the book!â Stan pointed an accusatory finger at him. âI lost the book? It was probably a gnome who took it!â Ford defended. âHow are you so sure that a gnome even took it?â Ford scratched the back of his neck nervously. âThey may or may not have knocked me out just a few moments ago.â Stan was so ready to deck him in the face when Soos came into the room. âMr. Pines!â He pointed outside. âThe kids are here!â âWe know that, Soos.â The twins spat out. âBut thereâs this wolf mailman dude, and I really donât trust him and heâs probably like eating the kids right now at the bus stop!â Soos rambled out. While Stan carried an unimpressed face, Fordâs face twisted to one of horror. âWe need to pick them up now!â Unfortunately for Stan, both Soos and Ford have a rising suspicion that the mailman is a wolf in a human disguise. But the man was just hairy! Ford pulled Stan along and got inside his car. Starting up the car, Stan let out an exhausted sigh. âHow did puny little gnomes knock you out?â He asked, backing out of his parking spot and onto the road. âI was busy reading when they knocked me out cold! I donât think they intended to steal the journal, when I was waking back up they realized and grabbed the nearest object possible and ran out of there.â Stan sighed, tapping his finger on the wheel. âI really canât believe you sometimes.â He mutters. âIt wasnât my fault, Stanley!âÂ
âś Coming to a complete stop, Ford rolled down the windows, a large smile on his face when his eyes landed on his favorite great nieces. âGrunkle Ford!â They cheer, equally large smiles on their faces. âHey, hey!â Stan watched as they stumbled into the car with their bulky backpacks skidding against the roof. âWhereâs my love?â Stan exclaimed. âRight here, Grunkle Stan.â Mable giggled, wrapping her arms around Stanâs neck and nuzzling her face into his shoulder. âThatâs more like it,â Stan grinned, gingerly patting her back. âNow whereâs the sweaty one? Iâm missing one!â Dipper sighed, a playful roll to his eyes. âIâm right here,â Mable pulled away from Stan and swiftly latched herself to Ford. âCâmon, give your old grunkle some sugar.â Dipper cringed. âDonât ever say that again, Grunke Stan.â He said, hugging Stan. âI say what I want, kid! We live in a free country for a reason.â The drive home was full of conversation, the twins telling their grunkleâs stories from school and their home life. Stan and Ford made the conscious effort to comment and react to everything they said, if not Mable would make sure they did by repeating what they said over and over again. When the Mystery Shack came into view, they both shoved their face against the window, marveling at the shack. âIs this what Grunkle Stan is always talking about when we call him?â Mableâs hot breath fogged up the window. âYup. And now you guys get to see it.â Ford gestured to the shack, smiling proudly. He had soon come to love the shack he and Stan worked on, he will never admit that out loud though. Parking in his usual spot, he turns to the kids. âGet yourself settled in, alright?â They wasted no time jumping out of the car and scampering off into the shack. âAnd donât touch anything!â A jar crashing onto the floor was heard in the distance. âThey donât listen, do they?â Stan shook his head. âAlright, poindexter, what are we going to do about the book?â He started, looking at Ford who pulled at his turtle neck anxiously. âWe have to wait till tonight to look for it.â Tonight came and they were too wrapped up with the twins that they couldnât go out and search for the third book. Their schedules became so busy that a week had passed and they still were waiting to find an empty slot in their schedules to find the book but it never came.
âś âGrunkles! Grunkles!â Mable came running at them at full speed. âWoah there, kiddo!â Ford swooped Mable up from the floor. âYou almost bumped into me.â He laughed, putting her back down on the ground. âThat was the plan.â She giggled. âBut I have something to ask!â She shoved her hand inside the pocket of her skirt. She pulled out a photo, a very specific photo that Stan had kept in his room. She pointed at the person in the middle. âWho is this?â She asks. âMable!â Dipper rushed to the living room. Bending over, he hoisted himself up by propping his arms on his knees. He wheezed out, his eyes locking onto the tense scene in front of him. âDid she already ask about the photo?â Silence was his response. Breaking out of his trance, Stan swiped the photo out of Mableâs hands. âWhere did you find this?â Stanâs eyes flickered between the photo and Mable. âIn your room.â A flash of emotions went through Stanâs face. Why was Mable in his room? Why did she pick this photo out of all the things in his room? He spiraled. He wasnât expecting to speak of you to someone who had no idea of your existence. Stanâs heart crumpled into a pathetic ball. The twins had never met you. Ford took notice of Stanâs unnaturally quiet nature. âKids, why donât you go to your rooms?â Ford said, kneeling down to their height. âBut why?â Mable whined, pouting. âBecause we need to decide if we are ready to tell you, okay?â Ford gave a knowing look to Dipper who understood that this wasnât an easy topic. Dipper told something to Mable and with a worried look, she dejectedly followed him up to their room. âStan?â He looks over to Stan who was shakily pulling out a packet of cigarettes. âI thought you quit, Stanley?â Ford watched sadly as he walked inside the kitchen and searched for a lighter, when he did he pocketed it and walked back out. âItâs either I drink or I smoke.â Stan said, heading towards the porch. Ford followed after him, shutting the door behind him. âYou want one?â Stan offered the pack and he debated for a moment before denying his request. Stan brought the cigar to his lips. He cupped his hand around the cigar as he lit it up with his lighter. Taking a deep drag of the smoke, he allowed himself to relax, welcoming the familiar feeling of the smoke filling his lungs. âWe donât have to tell them if you donât want to.â Ford spoke, watching the puff of gray smog lighty cover his vision momentarily. âI donât think we have a choice here.â Stan takes another long drag from the cigarette. âWe can tell them weâre not ready yet.â Ford reasons. âI think itâs time they should know about [Name].â Stan stares at the late afternoon sky. âIt was just all so sudden and I didnât know how to react. It all went downhill from there.â Stan twiddled his cigarette between his fingers. âYou donât have to explain yourself, Stanley. I know how you feel.â A comfortable silence blanketed the both of them warmly. âDo you ever wonder what [Name] would think about the twins?â Ford breaks the silence, glancing at Stan from the corner of his eye. Stan wistfully smiled, stubbing out his cigarette on the floor. â[Name] would have loved the twins.âÂ
âś Stan looked between the twins. âSo, whaddya wanna know?â He asks. âWho are they!â Mable shouted. âThey are our younger sibling.â Ford said. Mableâs face exploded into shock. âWe have a secret Great Aunt/Grunkle?â Mable couldnât believe what she was hearing. âWhere are they?â Dipper questioned. âTheyâre somewhere,â Stan said with a strained voice. âWhere is somewhere?â Mable cocked her head to the side. âTheyâre out exploring the world.â Ford horribly lied. Mable frowned. âYou can tell us if theyâre dead, Grunkles. You donât have to hide it from us.â Stan took a harsh deep breath in. âThey arenât dead, pumpkin. We just have no idea where theyâre at.â Mable nodded her head in understanding. âDid you guys fall out?â Dipper asked with a tiny frown. âYeah. A terrible fight broke out and they left.â Ford gazed at the photo of the three of them when they were young, clueless of the world and just happy to be surrounded by one another. âIâm so sorry.â Mableâs excitement was no longer there and was replaced by sadness for her poor Grunkleâs. âItâs okay, dear. No need to apologize.â Ford assured Mable with a smile. â[Name] is a wonderful person,â This was the first time Stan had talked about you in a present tense and he couldnât tell if he liked that or not. âI hope one day you get to meet them.â
âś Unbeknownst to the two older twins, Dipper had found journal three when Stan instructed him to go out and put out signs in the woods. But they didnât find out that Dipper had it until he had shown the book to Ford and Stan after the events that had followed them the past few days. âGideon nearly destroyed the whole town trying to find it!â Dipper said. Stan pretended to feign interest as he skimmed through the pages. âI donât know what it means, or who wrote it, but after all weâve been through,â He looks at Mable and smiles, directing attention to his Grunkleâs who were trying their hardest to hide their actual feelings. âMaybe you guys should finally know about it too.â He grinned. âIâm glad you showed us this, Dipper.â Stan shut the book closed. âUhm, Grunkle Stan. Why does Grunkle Ford look like heâs about to crap himself?â Mable looked concerned for her Grunkle. Everyone turned their attention to Ford who weakly smiled at them. âExcuse him. Heâs still shakenââ Ford yanked Stan by the sleeve and pulled him out of the twins room. âWe need to go to the lab now!â Ford whispered. âI know that, Stanford! But at least let us pretend we donât give a ratsass for this book!â He whispered back. âWeâll be back!â Ford awkwardly excused him and Stan. The twins heard their Grunkle speedily walk down the stairs. âDo you think Iâm ever going to get that book back?â Mable shrugged.Â
âś Placing the books right next to each other, Ford flipped to the pages containing the blueprints. He connected the books together, showing the full plan of the portal. Stan read the instructions and swung over to the controls, he flipped the exact switches that were told to be switched. The lights around the portal flickered on. âOh my god!â Ford laughed out in surprise. âIs this actually going to work?â Stan and Ford rush over to the portal. Their hearts thrumming against their chest. Together, they pulled the lever. With a click, it moved to the other side and the portal hummed. Zaps of electricity emitted from the portal as it powered back on. A rush of wind blew by Stan and Ford as the portal swirled to life. Ford shook his head in disbelief. âCanât believe we did it, huh?â Stan says with a smile. âI thought we were never going to get this portal turned on.â Stan claps his back. âWell, believe it!âÂ
âś Ford was so sure they werenât going to get caught. He was so absolutely sure. The plan he made to steal the nuclear waste was perfect, there was no room for error. But it seemed like the universe had other plans. He never imagined himself getting pinned to a cop car with cuffs around his wrists. This was more of a Stanley thing, and yet here he is, getting arrested. âThis is all just a big misunderstanding!â Ford cried out, his cheek squished against the hood of the cop car. âGuys, canât I give you some money?â Stan approached them with his hands in his pockets. They all watched him nervously, guns aimed and men ready to tackle him down. âGrunkle Stan, maybe you shouldnât!â Mable grabs Stanâs hand and pulls him back. âYou guys got the wrong guy, my brother is innocent!â Stan argues. âOh, weâve been watching your family all summer and we have seen some pretty disturbing things. Whoever you think your brother is, he is not what he seems.â They shove Ford into a car. âGuys!â Ford calls, the door slamming shut on him. Stan watches as they drive off with Ford, his head spinning. âAs for you guys, we were removing you off the property.â The guy with a mustache said, directing them to another cop car that was beside them. âNo, you canât!â Stan felt helpless. He just wants you back, why is this so difficult? The chaos spiraled into madness and suddenly, Stan was in the lab, begging the kids to not turn off the portal. âThisâll end the world, Grunkle Stan. Why canât you see that?â Dipper had his hands hovering dangerously close to the button. âJust listen to me, kid. Itâll make sense later, just donât press the button.â He walked towards them but was soon taken off his feet. âBrace yourselves!â They all rise up, twirling and thrashing around the room. âT-Minus, thirty five seconds.â The robotic voice said. Dipper had grabbed onto a beam and told Mable to reach for the button. Using the cable wrapped on her foot, she inched herself close to the button. âMable, wait, wait!â Stan pushed him off the wall and tried reaching towards her. Soos dove straight for Stan and wrapped himself around him, apologizing to him. âSoos, whatâre you doing?!â Dipper followed what Soos did and yelled at Mable to turn it off.Â
âś âStop!â Everyone looked around and they all gasped when their eyes landed on Ford. âMabel, donât listen to Dipper. Listen to me,â Ford pushed himself toward the nearest beam. He coiled his arm around it, securing himself. âDo you trust me and Stan, Mable?â Ford firmly asked, his eyes locked with Mabel. âI do!â She desperately said. âThen trust us when we tell you to not push the button.â Mabel looked to Dipper who was widely shaking his head. âOkay,â She raises her hands above her head. âI trust you guys.â She let herself float up, away from the button. âMable, noâ!â A white flash envelops them whole.Â
âś They all roughly made contact with the floor. With a groan, Stan rubbed his head, his head lifting up towards the portal. The portal flickered with wandering electricity. Ford held his breath, eyes fixed on the portal as he waited. A black figure barreled out of the portal, their head whipping towards it. âClose the portal!â You yelled, your hand wrapping around a gun that was hoisted in their waist. You turned their attention back to Stan and Ford. âClose the portal!â You repeated louder this time. In the distance, they all heard a loud distorted guttural grumble. Ford got up from his feet and rushed over to the control panel, flicking all the switches down. âSwitch the lever off!â Switching the gun to your other hand, you aimed it at the portal and with your free hand, you pulled the lever. Before whatever monster was chasing you could catch up, the portal sputtered close. You held your chest, catching your breath. The rush of adrenaline you felt passed and you were immediately struck with pain. âThank you.â You whisper, clutching your side. You think you can manage and to prove it, you take one wobbly step forward. You tried to take another but you collapsed to your knees, blood splattering on the floor below you. â[Name]!â Stan yelled, he darted towards you. âStanley?â You croaked out. You blinked in surprise. âIs that really you?â Your question falls on deaf ears as Stan yells for medical supplies. Ford comes rushing to your side, inspecting the upper half of your body. âStanfordâs here too?â You felt your body teeter from side to side. âIs Mom and Dad gonna pop up?â You joke, your body crashing onto Ford. â[Name], canâŚ.hearâŚ?â Stanâs voice fades in and out. âWhat did you say?â Your eyes squint at Stan. âHere, GrunkleâŚâ You could hear a high pitched voice and you go to look for it but your vision has gone hazy. âTheyâre slippingâŚout ofâŚâ You really wished you understood what they were saying. And without even realizing, your eyes closed on you.Â
âś You feel a warmth tickle your face causing you to stir awake. âOh my gosh, it worked!â A voice spoke. âMable!â A prepubescent voice filled your ears. âWhat is with all this talking?â You sleepily grumbled out, peeling your eyes open to see two tween kids staring right at you with big wondrous eyes. âHi, Iâm Mable! Iâm your great niece.â She introduced herself. âGreat niece?â You groggily got up. âWhere am I?â You ask, blinking as your vision comes back to you. âYouâre in the Mystery Shack!â She tells you with a chipper attitude. âMystery Shack?â You look down to see that your original outfit you wore was now discarded somewhere and instead wore a large baggy white tee and heart pajama pants. âWhat am I wearing?â You pinched at your clothes. âKids!â A gruff voice was heard behind the doors. âOh shoot!â Mable looked around the room. âWhere do we hide?â Dipper whispered, his eyes darting under the bed. âGo under the bed!â Dipper said, diving straight under. âPlease donât tell Grunkle Stan that weâre here!â She pleaded. âUhm, yeah?â She beamed and hid right under the bed. In an instant, the door was pushed open and your eyes locked on your brothers. Your brain processed it for a moment, wait⌠âStanley, Stanford?!â A gasp leaves Ford. âWhy are you awake! Youâre supposed to be resting.â Ford scolded. You didnât pay attention to Fordâs scolding, wrapped up in the moment of seeing your twin brothers living and breathing right in front of you. âAre you guys real?â You try to blink away the tears that were obstructing your view. âOf course we are silly.â Stan laughed, sitting down on the bed right next to you and wrapping you in a side hug. âStanâŚâ You cried. You had spent countless nights, shouldering the knowledge that you werenât going to see your brothers ever again. That haunted you every single day from the moment you woke up to the minute you went to sleep. Here you are, proven wrong for once in your life. And it feels so good to be held by Stan again, feels so good to have a familiar feeling wash into your senses again. âHow?â You ask, peeling yourself away from Stanâs shoulder, wiping the tears away. âWe just kept trying and trying.â Ford told you, a somber smile on his lips. âOh, Ford. Come here!â You grab his wrist and tug him into the bed. The action caused you to drag and flop all of them on the bed with you. Tearful laughter erupts in the room. âI apologize for the scare earlier,â You say, your hand pressing against your side. âDonât apologize. It wasnât your fault.â Stan said. âNo, really.â You begin to unwrap the gauze around your waist, ignoring Ford and Stanâs protest. âI heal quickly.â You point to your already sealed up gash. The only thing left to prove that you were injured was the thin scar that spread across. Ford gawks in awe. âYou need to tell me an in depth story detailing every single thing you have been doing for the past thirty years.â Ford said with so much seriousness you laughed. âBu-but you passed out. Ford said it was from blood loss!âÂ
âś âI only passed out because my body needs to shut down momentarily to heal up my wounds.â You tell him matter of factly. âOh, great. Now we have another snobby nerd.â Stan joked. âOh, stop it! You are too, considering you fixed the portal alongside with Mr. Branic over here.â You jabbed a thumb over to Ford who yelled out, âHey!â in offense. âHello family!â Mable popped out from under the bed. The three of you screamed loudly in fear, clutching each other. âWoah, didnât mean to scare you guys!â She helped Dipper out from under the bed. âI just wanted to say that you guys are so adorable!â She squealed, pouncing onto the bed. âI canât believe I have a Great Aunt/Grunkle who has traveled throughout dimensions. Isnât that so cool?â She kicked her feet in excitement. âWhat kinds of monsters did you see out there?â Dipper asked, climbing onto the bed and settling himself between you, Ford and Stan. âA lot.â You respond with a smile. âI never caught your brother's name.â You say, booping Dipperâs nose. âHis name is Dipper!â Mable pulls him close to her, cheek to cheek. âWeâre twins.â She mentioned. âSo it runs in the family, huh?â You elbow the two sets of other twins you had the misfortune to partially grow up with. âGuess so,â Stan smiled. âLetâs play a get to know each other game.â Mable offered. Everyone surprisingly agreed. âOkay, letâs start with Great Aunt/Grunkle [Name]. Tell us about yourself.â The rest of the afternoon was spent catching up with the family and when the game was over, the twins had left, leaving you with Stan and Ford. âThank you guys for not giving up on me.â You say into the hug. âWeâre family! How could we ever abandon you?â Ford replies. An awkward cough emitted from you and Stan looked off to the side. âOh.â The last thirty years had been rough, for you and the twins, but it was nice knowing that it ended with the three of you once again reunited at last.Â

Hurt/no comfort: shy!Reader slips a note in Eddieâs locker asking him on a date, but when he reads it, he just laughs and tosses it in the trash.
My brain needed to slip a soft landing in there in someway. So, there is no comfort for reader-in-the-fic, but thereâs a little bit kinda sorta for person who is reading the fic. Thereâs a small gap if you wanna stop at the absolutely no comfort though! Did this make sense? Hope so.
Words: 1.2k
Today was the day. There had been a few times over the past couple of weeks where youâd told yourself that, too, but this was really it.Â
The note is clutched in your hand as you turn the corner to the correct hallway. One more deep breath and you force your foot to take one step forward.Â
Anxiety begins to creep up inside of you, threatening to seize your lungs and close your throat. To keep it at bay, you recite what the piece of paper in your grip says, over and over again.
Hi Eddie,Â
I wouldâve asked you in person if I werenât so shy, but here we are. I was wondering if maybe you would want to go see that new movie The Breakfast Club with me on Friday night? I know that might not be your thing, so Iâm down for whatever you might want to do! Just let me know, okay? Maybe in our last period bio. Whenever Old OâDonnell stops droning on. Iâll see you then, I guess!
âThen with a little heart drawn next to my name,â you mumble to yourself.
Your sneakers squeal against the white linoleum tile beneath you as you come to a stop at Eddieâs locker. The silver plate engraved with â527â stares back at you from where itâs soldered to the metal.Â
With one last deep breath, you fold the letter up as tiny and as flat as you can before you slip it through the slats on the front of the locker door.
Quickly, you turn away from the locker. You keep your head down as you briskly walk towards the corner you came from.
Why are you running away like youâre leaving a crime scene? You ask yourself as you listen to the fast squeak of your shoes on the floor. Afraid someone is going to tell Eddie they saw you put something in his locker? Your name is already on the note, genius!Â
With a soft groan, you come to a stop and lean against the cool white brick wall just on the other side of the corner. You press your back flush up against the wall and let the chill help calm your body down.Â
Nothing you can do now, you tell yourself as you close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. The note is already in there. Now itâs a waiting game. Itâs in Eddieâs hands.Â
Speak of the devilâŚ
Boots thud against the floor as Eddie heads your way down the hall. His Hellfire shirt looks wrinkled, like he slept in it, but he sports his signature layers of leather jacket and denim vest over it anyway.Â
You adjust your position against the wall, trying to look more casual than conniption-y. He notices your movement out of the corner of his eye and gives you a small, quick smile that does nothing to help your raging heartbeat calm down.Â
You flash him a brief smile in return before heading the opposite way, farther away from him and his lockerâor so you want him to think.
As soon as Eddie turns the corner to his locker, you spin around and make your way back to where you just were: in the perfect position to peek around the wall and spy from a distance.Â
Slowly, you stick your head out so youâre able to see around the corner. Eddie is standing at his locker, entering the combination. It looks like heâs whistling, but youâre too far away to hear.Â
The metal clanks as Eddie swings the locker door open, and you see the small white piece of paper thatâs from you floating gently down to the floor. Eddieâs brows furrow in confusion as he crouches down to pick up the note. He slips the piece of paper between his lips to hold it as he shoves his backpack in the locker and pulls out a single yellow notebook.Â
Once heâs finished and closed the metal door, Eddie tucks his notebook beneath his armpit and removes the paper from his mouth. He unfolds the paper, and your heart feels like itâs unraveling with every motion to open the note.Â
You watch as his eyes scan your scrawl written in blank ink. Everyone else in the bustling hall disappears. Thereâs no one but you and Eddie. And the note.
It feels as if it takes Eddie an eternity to read the few lines. Your lungs burn, reminding you to breathe as you await some sort of reaction.Â
Then, a corner of Eddieâs mouth quirks up and your spirit is floating with hope. But the smile turns into a snicker, which turns into a chortle. With the cackling sound, your hope drops down below the hideous linoleum tiles that cover every inch of these halls.Â
Eddie crumples the note in his hand, and he might as well have done it to your heart. Nausea churns through you, coming on so fast that itâs dizzying. Your hands brace you against the wall, so you donât fallâeven if your legs give out, like theyâre threatening to.Â
Eddie turns so his back is to you and he walks farther away. Parked in front of a window is a janitorâs trash can, which Eddie unceremoniously drops your letter into.Â
Black spots fill your vision, and you find yourself needing to take giant gulps of air. You are not okay. Escape. Thatâs what you need.Â
Sneakers protest their meeting with the linoleum floor once more as you push yourself off the wall and stumble towards the school exit. All the nerves that were previously fluttering around your body before have now turned to shards of glass, scraping and cutting you from the inside with every step you take. The people who had all disappeared when you were so focused on Eddie have now come back with a vengeance, appearing to multiply by the minute as you attempt to squeeze past them all.Â
The school doors are just at the end of the hall, but your spotty and blurry vision gives you a funhouse effect, making the distance to the door seem longer and more difficult than it is. Finally, your hands land on the silver bar and the biting chill of it brings you back to reality.Â
Hot tears are streaming down your face and hiccups force their way up your throat every few seconds. Snot is rapidly filling your nose and all you know is that you need to get out of here now.
You push the silver bar and the door opens, leading you into the bitter February morning that was awaiting you. Unfortunately, the first thing youâd done once you got to school was stash your jacket away in your own locker, but youâll be damned if you step foot back inside that school today. Instead, you grit your teeth and rub your hands up and down your arms in an attempt at warmth.Â
A few yards away, your car sits, beckoning to you. Knowing youâll finally be able to have the breakdown you so want to in there, you jog in the direction of your parking space, praying the tears flowing down your face donât freeze against your skin.Â
Eddie lets the crumpled ball of paper roll off his fingertips and land in the trash can. He canât believe it. Heâs still laughing as he shoves open the door to his homeroom.
âNice try, Jason,â he murmurs to himself as he finds his seat. âBut Iâm not falling for that one. Better luck next time.â

Klaus Mikaelson x Soulmate!Reader x Elijah Mikaelson Pt. 19
Word Count- 6.4k
Warnings- UNEDITED- Iâm tired, and this chapter kicked my ass, swearing, violence, VOMIT- A LOT OF IT, liquor, underage drinking, Theo, Klaus, Stefan
Iâm losing it. Or at least Iâm about to.Â
âCâmon, Y/n, itâs not that hardâŚjust paint, for Christ's sake.â
I lift up my paintbrush, which Iâve been holding for the past 15 minutes, and dip it into the dark blue oil paint sitting next to my easel. The easel is currently holding a sickly white and blank canvas. The whiteness practically mocks me as I lift up the paintbrush and keep it a millimeter away from the canvas.Â
I furrow my eyebrows and continue to hold the paintbrush for so long that some of the paint on the brush is about to slip off.
âUGH!â
I throw the paintbrush back into the water cup next to me and stand up, running a hand through my hair. This is how itâs been for the past week. I sit down in front of this stupid easel and stare at it for fucking hours, and yet nothing comes to me. No inspiration, no sense of creativity, nothing. When I was younger, painting and drawing were things that would ease my soul, but as of now, itâs something that is just pissing me off. Technically itâs not the painting thatâs pissing me off, I guess. Itâs my creativity or lack of it.Â
A buzzing in my pocket has me grabbing my phone and answering it, âWhat?!â
âPukey, weâve really got to work on how you answer calls,â Demon laughs from his end of the call.Â
âWhat do you want, Toad,â I huff as I rip off the painterâs apron covering my jeans and place it on the seat I was just inhabiting.Â
âThatâs a new one,â He says, and I can pretty much see the smirk on his face as he says it, âAnyways, I have something to tell you. Itâs kind of big, so you might want to sit down.â
I scrunch up my face at his words, âDid someone dieâŚother than Ric?â
âWhat? No. No one died.â
I release a breath, put Damon on speaker, and then walk over to my closet to find a different shirt to wear.
âAre you sitting down?â
I roll my eyes, âYaâŚsure.â
âOkayâŚâ
At Damonâs dramatics, I groan, âDemon, if you donât stop talking, Iâm going to hang up. And then youâre going to have to talk to one of your other friendsâŚwell, if you had any.â
âSo youâre admitting weâre friends,â Damon sasses back.
âDamon! Speak!â
âDamn, woman, fine! Elena and I kissedâŚwell, technically, I kissed her. And I think she kissed me back. I mean, I hope she did. Do I hope she did? Ya, I do.â
At Damonâs confession, I glance at the floor-length mirror on my closet door and watch myself blink rapidly, my face contorting from shock to anger.
âDamonâŚâ
âYa?â
âIâm going to stick my foot up your ass.â
âPlease donât.â
I quickly grab a light blue sweater off its hanger and then throw it over my head and shoulders, âToo late. Iâm coming to your house now, and then when I get there, Iâm going to beat you up.â
âIâm actually leaving now, so weâre going to have to postpone this little meetup.â
I huff as I grab my phone and take it off speaker, âDamon, you did something again without thinking.â
Damon is quiet for a moment, and then I hear him sigh, âI did think about it though, Y/n. Iâve thought about it a lot.â
âSheâs your little brotherâs girlfriend, Damon. The little brother that spent a summer in hell with the devil himself to save your life.â
âI know⌠But for once, I just⌠nothing. Never mind,â Damon softly says, and my heart clenches when I hear his tone.
âDamonâŚâ
âDonât tell anyone, ok? I donât think Elena wants anyone to know.â
I nod, even though he canât see me, âYa, sure, Damon. I wonât tell anyone.â
âThanks.â
Before I can say anything else, Damon ends the call, and I sigh. Can things in this town get any more fucking complicated?
âY/N!â
I quickly go into alert mode as Theo bursts through my bedroom door with tears in his eyes.
âTheo! Whatâs wrong?! What happened?! Are you hurt?!â
I quickly run over to my brother and grab his shoulder, trying to asses him for any injuries. Thankfully, I see nothing externally wrong with him.
âHeâs gone!â
Theo practically wails like a banshee as he throws himself dramatically into my arms, putting all of his weight onto me.Â
âJesus, Theo! Words give me more words! Who is gone?!â
Theo leans back to look down at me, âMy precious baby boy!â
I shake my head frantically, âJeremy! What happened to Jeremy? Is he hurt?â
Theo pushes off of me, resulting in me almost falling backward. I turn and watch my brother as he throws his tall body onto my bed, grabs one of my pillows, clutches it, and then positions himself in a fetal position.Â
âTheo, explain!â
Theo throws his head back, and with one more wail, he looks up at me, âHeâs leaving town! For some weird ass state like Ohio or some shit! Can you believe this horror, Y/n!? Heâs LEAVING ME!â
I take a deep sigh of relief and then rub my temple with my index finger, âSo heâs not dead?â
âHe might as well be! He is to me, at least! That hoe just dropped the bomb on me that heâs leaving me⌠leaving USâŚand Iâm supposed to be okay with this?!â
I watch my teenage brother go through his tantrum with a bored face.Â
âTheoâŚâ
âWHAT WOMAN!? Canât you see that Iâm going through something here?!â
âTheo⌠never mind,â I stare down at my brother and then just sigh. I walk over to him, grab my blanket, and throw it over him, âIâm guessing youâre not going to school?â
Theo peers his head out from the blanket and glares at me, âIn this condition?! How do you expect me to live?!â
I blink at my brother and then cover his head back up. âAs much as Iâd like to stay here and work you throughâŚwhatever this is,â I grab my backpack and keys from my desk. But itâs Carolineâs birthday, so Iâve got to go to school.â
Theo doesnât say anything, and I stand there for a moment, watching the blanketed lump on my bed. âDonât forget to drink something.â
âLike what!? BLEACH?!â
âIâm too young for this,â I say to myself as I close my door.Â
â-
âHey, Y/n,â Elena smiles sheepishly as I meet her at Carolineâs locker.
I stare blankly at my friend as she tapes up a pink streamer to our friendâs locker, âFrom the look on your face, Iâm guessing you heard.â
âOh, you wouldnât believe the things Iâve heard this morning, Elena Gilbert.â
âJeremy needs to leave Y/n; itâs not safe for him here. As an older sister, too, you should know what Iâm doing is only in his best interest.â Elena turns to me and looks at me hopefully. I want to argue with her, but if I were in her position and Theoâs life was in danger, Iâd make him leave town, too.
âHowâd you convince him to leave? Theoâs having a mental breakdown in my bed at this moment, so I donât know how Jeremy could just leave so soon.â
Elena turns away from me and then quietly tapes another streamer onto the locker.
âElena Gilbert⌠what the hell did you do?!â
Elena turns to me quickly, and her perfectly shaped eyebrows furrow at me, âI did what I had to do to keep my brother safe, Y/n. I had Damon come over last night and compel him to leave town. Jenna is going too.â
I stare blankly at my friend and breathe in and out, trying to stop myself from overreacting.Â
âDid Damon do that before or after you guys kissed?â
Elenaâs brown eyes widen in shock as she closes the small space between us.Â
âHow did you know,â She whisper-yells to me.Â
âHow do you think?! Elena, seriously!â
âHey guys, sorry Iâm late. I, uh, got held up,â Elena and I separate and look over to our witch friend, who frowns at the two of us.Â
âIs everything ok?â
I turn to Elena and tilt my head, âI donât knowâŚis it Elena?â
Elena looks at me and then brightly smiles at our friend, âYep! We just got here to decorateâŚ. Can you help with the balloons?â
Bonnie frowns slightly at me and then leans down to grab the balloons by my feet. She hands them to Elena who thanks her.Â
âWhat got you running late?â
Bonnie looks at Elena and then back to me before answering, âI, uh, was working on some spells. You guys?â
Bonnieâs lying.Â
Iâm glancing at her as she fiddles with her fingers. Hmm, it seems like everyone is hiding something nowadays.Â
âWorking out with Alaric,â Elena says. I glance up and notice Bonnie looking at me, waiting for me to answer.
âTalking Theo off the ledge,â I say casually as I lean down to grab a streamer.
âWait, what?!â
Bonnieâs frightened voice has me turning back toward her, âNothing new.â
I smile at Bonnie, who stares at me wide-eyed but still nods her head. I gesture to the sign in her hands and she hands it to me. I tape the sign onto Careâs locker.
âSo, uh, I have something I need to tell you. And youâre not going to like it.â
At Elenaâs words, I let out a low whistle and then backed away from the two, saying, âThis is a perfect time for me to goâŚaway.â
Without waiting, I quickly bolt down the hall so I donât have to be around for Elena telling Bonnie that she had her ex-boyfriend compelled to leave town. No, thank you.Â
I find comfort by a water fountain until I see Jeremy walk to his locker.Â
âJeremy Gilbert, turn around.â
I watch as Jeremyâs shoulders hunch together, and he slowly turns around to face me.Â
âHey, Y/nâŚâ
âDonât; hey, me. Do you know that my brother is at home right nowâŚin my bed, wailing because his best friend is leaving him? After telling him over a phone call!â
Jeremy frowns and looks down, ashamed, âIt was something that I found out I was doing just last night.â
I inwardly cringe at that because itâs honestly not this boyâs fault his sister had her not-love compel him.Â
âI know, Buddy. But telling Theo over the phone and not saying goodbye to him in person? Low blow,â I stare at him for another moment before glaring at the kid, âALSO! Why the hell did you tell Theo about the supernatural!?â
Jeremy cringes and shrugs his shoulders, âHe told you?â
I answer him by glaring.
âIâm going to take that as a yes. Well, he deserved to know. I went through the same thing with being in the dark.â
âBut that wasnât your call to make, Jeremy! Youâre his friend. Not his sister!â
âJeremy?â
At the sound of Bonnieâs voice, I let out a sigh and rubbed my temple. âJust go talk to him in person,â I said, pointing at him.
Jeremy nods, and I roll my eyes before pulling the younger boy in for a hug, âBe safe in Ohio.â
âIâm going to Delaware,â Jeremy says, confused, and I roll my eyes.
âPlease tell my brother that. Iâm pretty sure heâs planning on flying to Ohio to be with you.â
Jeremy lets out a laugh and smiles, âYou be careful too, okay?â
I nod, âCareful as I can be.â
â
âMatt move your fat ass,â I hiss to Matt Donovan as we squeeze in together behind the corner of Carolineâs living room. The birthday girl didnât show up to see the masterpiece we made of her locker, so we decided to move the party to her house.Â
âSorry, Y/n,â The blond boy says as he moves back a step.
âShhhh! Sheâs coming,â Elena whispers to us as she and Bonnie stand directly across from us.
The sound of a door opening and closing alerts us, and we jump out, yelling.Â
âSuprise!â
 Carolineâs wide eyes look at the four of us, and she smiles, but it doesnât seem to meet her eyes.Â
âHappy Birthday!â
 âWhat are you guys doing here?â
âWell, you uh blew off school and missed our, uh work of birthday art,â Elena explains as Care walks over to us, inspecting our poster and birthday crowns weâre all wearing,Â
âChange into warmer clothes; weâre going to the falls. Sâmores, campfire,â Bonnie tells her, and I nod excitedly.Â
âCake,â Elena chimes in, âLike when we were little.â
âExcept with tequila,â Matt says, and I roll my eyes.
âI also brought my speaker and my iPod, so Iâm going to be DJing us alllll night,â I jump up and down.
Caroline laughs and smiles at us, âAh, thanks, guys, really. Um⌠Iâm just not really feeling my birthday this year.â
âIâm sorry, what? Youâve already claimed your birthday as everyoneâs favorite day of the year.â
I nod along to what Bonnie just said, âGurl, be so for real. I havenât been up for my birthday in years, and yet you threw me a great party. Itâs your turn to experience the love,â I say and give her a stern look.
âYa, well, itâs just a reminder now technically Iâm dead,â Caroline retorts.Â
Oh.Â
âLook, I didnât even like 17. And the only point was to get to 18. Itâs a filler year. Iâm stuck in a filler year.â
Elena shakes her head at Carolineâs words, âYouâre not stuck, Caroline.â
âYa, I am. But itâs okay. You know itâs all good. I will be fine. But I just need some time to wallow in it.â
I awkwardly play with my fingers at the tension in the room.Â
âOkay,â Elena says, âWell, I think I have another idea.â
â
âOh god,â I look at the cemetery weâre walking into. You guys realize that this is a horror movie, stupid, right?!â
I turn to Matt, Caroline, Bonnie, and Elena, who all laugh at me, thinking Iâm joking. Iâm not.Â
âGuys, Iâm being serious! You know when youâre watching a horror movie, and the dumb blonde makes some dumbass decision that puts her right into the hands of the maniac killer? Ya, thatâs us right now! Weâre the dumb blondes!â
They all laugh but keep walking towards the crypt.Â
âThis is going to end so badly! Iâm calling it now. So when something bad happens, donât be pissed off when I say I told you so! You hear me,â I watch as they all walk into the small building while I stand alone in the dark cemetery, âGuys!?â
I stand by myself, debating on going in. A snapping branch from behind me makes me pretty much shit myself.
âOh fuck this,â I quickly run to the crypt, throw open the door, and shut it behind me.Â
âI hate you all.â
âWe love you, too,â All four of them say together like some weird ass cult.Â
Elena walks over to me, throws her hand over my shoulder, and pulls me into her, âAs I was saying⌠Technically, Carolineâs dead. Sorry, but you donât need a birthday. You need a funeral. You need to say goodbye to your old life so that you can move on with your new one.â
I whip my head over to my best friend and gawk at her. Then, I think for a moment and realize for once that her plan wasnât completely horrible.Â
Caroline seems to think so, too, as she laughs.Â
âOkay,â The birthday girl takes off her purple tiara and places it down, âHere lies Caroline Forbes.â
âCheerleader, Miss Mystic Falls,â Elena moves us to Carolineâs cake and starts putting candles on it. âThird-grade hopscotch champion.â
âFriend⌠daughter,â Bonnie adds as she walks over to the blonde, âOverachiever.â
âMean girl, sometimes,â Matt takes his turn, âNo offense.â
âAh, none taken.â
âBest party thrower in the history of Mystic Falls and the most scandalous friend Iâve ever had,â I smile at the blonde, and she smiles back at me.
âYou bet your ass I am.â
âShe was 17, and she had a really good life,â Elena finishes putting the candles on the cake, and we walk it over to Caroline, âSo rest in peace so that you can move forward. Thatâs what you really need. Itâs what we all really need. Amen, or cheers or whatever.â
I laugh as Matt raises the bottle of Tequila in the air.Â
âUh, Bonnie,â Elena gestures to the unlit cake, and Bonnie smiles. We all watch as our witch friend closes her eyes, and a moment later, the dark crypt is lit up by the orange glow of the birthday candles.Â
I jump up and down, âHuzzah! Make a wish!â
â
âI love this song!â
I dance around the crypt nursing my root beer as my friends all pass around the bottle of tequila. They offered me my first dibs, but I turned them down.Â
I dance by Bonnie and grab her arms. Her laugh echoes off the stone walls as we sway back and forth to âJessieâs Girl.â
âUh oh, I need it more than you. Trust meâŚâ Elena says to Matt over the music, âCaroline, what are you doing?â
Bonnie and I swing to look at the blonde, who is currently hunched over her phone.Â
âHuh? Hmmm? Nothing.â
Bonnie and I share a look at the blatant lie.
âOkay,â Elena says, âYouâre a bad sober liar. Youâre an even worse drunk liar.â
Caroline cringes, âI mightâve texted Tyler.â
I blow out a low breath, and Elena presses pause on my iPod, shutting off the music.Â
âUntil next time, my love,â I lean down and kiss Bonnieâs hand, and she giggles.Â
âCarolineâŚâ
âWhat,â Caroline whines, âIâm delicate.â
Bonnie sits down on the stone floor, âOkay, give her a break. You canât control what everyone does all the time.â
âOh shit,â Matt and I shoot an awkward look at each other.Â
âWow,â Elena says to the witch.
âIâm sorry; I know itâs Caroline's birthday funeral or whatever, but I just feel itâs really wrong that you compelled Jeremy to leave town.â
And this is one of the many reasons I donât drink.Â
Elena frowns, âIâm doing it to protect him, Bonnie. I wanna give him a chance at a halfway normal life.â
âHe should be able to choose how he wants to live it. Youâre taking his choices away.â
Elena shakes her head, âBonnie, you canât tell him.â
âWhy? Are you going to compel me not to?â
âYou know, you guys are ruining a perfectly good funeral,â Matt interruptsâŚthankfully.Â
âIâm sorry,â Bonnie stands up. Iâm just going to go sleep it off or something. Happy Birthday.â
I watch with raised eyebrows as Bonnie leaves.
âÂ
I stare down at Mattâs lips and then back up to his eyes.Â
âIâm sorry, I canât!â
I throw myself back, and Caroline, Elena, and Matt all laugh.
âMy first kiss is not going to be with my work husband. Iâm a chicken, and I fault on my dare,â I say and raise my hands in surrender.
âWait! First kiss?!?! Youâve never had your first kiss? What the hell, Y/n,â The drunk blonde vampire throws herself into my lap so sheâs straddling me, and I let out a loud laugh.
âYa, nope. I have no game. No kissing for me,â I say casually.
âI bet Elijah thinks otherwise,â Caroline says seductively, and I shove her off my laugh.
âShut up!â I try to act cool, but I can feel myself warming up.Â
âIâm serious,â Caroline stands up, or at least tries to, âWeâre going to go find Stefan, get him to wake Elijah up, and then that hunky suited Original is going to lay one big slobbery kiss on those pink lips of yours!â
Caroline nods to herself as if this is the best idea she has ever come up with.Â
âElijah does not want to kiss me,â I deny.
âYes, he does,â all three of them say, and I whip my head over to Matt, who is sitting next to me.Â
âHow the hell do you even know that? Youâve never met the guy⌠neither have you, Caroline!â
Matt shrugs and takes another sip of the tequila, âI saw him that day when you, Damon, Ric, and Jenna were at the Grill. And I also saw the way he looked at you when you werenât looking, Y/n, and that man defiantly wanted to kiss you. Maybe even more.â
My mouth drops open, and I hear Elena and Caroline laughing beside us. âShut up!â
âItâs true,â Matt raises three fingers, âScouts Honor! Iâm a guy, Y/n. Trust me when I say I know what a guy looks like when he wants a girl.â
I shake my head defiantly, âYouâre all drunk and out of your minds.â
The door behind me opens, and I jump. âHoly hell! Itâs the maniac killer! I told you all!â
I whip around and then sigh when itâs only Tyler: âFalse alarm. It's just the dog.â
Matt stands up and glares at the intruder.Â
âSorry, I didnât mean to crash the party.â
âSo donât.â
At Mattâs words, I let out a little âoop.â
Caroline quickly sits up, âNo, uh, itâs okay. Hi.â
Tyler turns his attention to the birthday girl, âCan I talk to you for a second? Itâs kind of important.â
Caroline sighs and then nods her head. She begins to walk out, but I grab her hand, stopping her, âIf he does anything, just scream, and Iâll be there to kick his ass for you.â
Caroline smiles softly and nods her head. She walks past Tyler, and I shoot him one last glare and then swipe a finger over my throat threateningly.Â
After they exit, Matt and I sit back down.
âAre you okay,â Elena asks Matt.
âYeah, I want her to be happy, you know?â
I smile softly as I stare at the blonde boy. Not many people give him props, but I think heâs a pretty cool guy. If my best friend started dating my ex-boyfriend, Iâd lose my shit.
âThatâs what I want for all of you guys in the middle of this crazy life you got stuck living.â
Elena frowns, âIs that how you see it? That weâre stuck?â
âI donât think thatâs what he means, E,ââ I shake my head.Â
âNo, Iâd say itâs attached itself to all of you pretty tight, yeah,â Matt says and I just lean back.Â
âBonnieâs right, you know I have no business messing in Jeremyâs head. I just donât know what else to do. He's in danger here. I canât lose anyone else that I love.â
Well, this night just got melodramatic.Â
â
âGreat. Weâve been abandoned. Weâre going on a search party. I donât trust she wonât get back together with him,â Elena says as we step outside, trying to find Caroline.Â
Matt stands in front of us with a flashlight. Iâm currently clutching onto Elenaâs arm as I look wearily around the graveyard.Â
âMatt, you go first,â I nod ahead at the boy and then lean over to whisper to Elena, âHeâs a guy, so the killer will take him first. Horror movie logic,â I nod, and she rolls her eyes at me and pulls me closer, âIâll protect you.â
âLetâs hope those training sessions with Alaric have been working, or else weâre both dead.â
âCaroline!â
âCome on, Caroline! We donât have anymore drinks, and Mattâs being haunted by the fell ghosts,â Elena walks us over to Matt.Â
I whip my head to Elena, âHoe, donât say that,â I look behind us quickly, âYouâll wake them up!â
When I turn back around, though, a scream escapes my throat as Matt is being thrown against the crypt wall.
âItâs the killer!! Run, Elena,â I tug on Elenaâs hand, but everything goes black before I can take another step. Â
âÂ
âUgh,â I groan in pain at the fire coming from my temple.Â
âY/n! Wake up,â Elenaâs voice calls from somewhere around me.Â
âI got kidnapped again, didnât I,â I groan as I slowly open my eyes and frown when I realize Iâm in the backseat of Stefanâs car.Â
âThatâs on me,â The vampire says as he doesnât take his eyes off the road.
âYa, no shit, Sherlock.â
Stefan pulls out his phone and dials a number before setting it up on the dash.Â
âStefan, you are no longer my favorite Salvatore. And that really fucking sucks because the only other choice I have is Damon, and thatâs a low bar.â
Stefan ignores me.
âStefan, how nice to hear your voice,â I freeze up when a familiar British accent fills my ears.Â
âTell your hybrids to get out of town, Klaus,â Stefan replies.
âWell, thatâs not gonna happen until I get my coffins back.â
Stefan laughs, and a lousy feeling washes over me, âOkay, well, then Iâm gonna drive your blood source and your obsession off Wickery Bridge.â
Tears instantly fill my eyes, âStefan, what are you talking about?!â
âY/n,â Klaus says my name sternly, âStefan, I donât believe you. You wonât kill them.â
I let out a gasp as Stefan harshly bites into his wrist and shoves it into Elenaâs mouth. I scream when the car starts to swerve as Stefan no longer has his hands on the wheel.Â
âY/n! Whatâs going on,â Klaus almost frantically yells into the phone.
Stefan sits back and grabs the wheel, âI just fed her my blood. No more hybrids if sheâs a vampire.â
âYou wonât do it,â Klaus says, and I want to cry because I know he will not relent.Â
âReally? Try me because your coffins are next to go. After, of course, I kill your pretty little mate, who is currently crying in my back seat. I didnât figure it out at first, Klaus, but after some time, I did. Tell me, what happens to a hybrid after their human mate is killed?â
Mate? What the fuck is Stefan talking about?!
âSheâs nothing to me, Stefan. I donât know what delusions youâve cooked up in that head of yours, but you're being delusional. Kill her, see if I care.â
Tears explode out of my eyes when I hear Klaus tell Stefan that.Â
âStefan,â I sob, âPlease donât! TheoâŚTheo needs me, okay? I canât leave him! Please donât make me leave him!â
Elena quickly reaches behind her and grabs my shaking hand.Â
My breathing comes out erratic as I see the bridge come closer to us.
âSay goodbye to your family, Klaus,â Stefan growls as he floors it, and I let out a scream.Â
âStefan, slow down!â
âStefan, please stop!â
âFine. Iâll send them away. You win,â Klaus relents, but Stefan doesnât slow down.Â
âStefan, please stop!!! Klaus, do something,â I yell hopelessly.
âStop the car, Stefan! Or I swear to god,â Klaus yells into the phone. A moment later, Iâm thrown forward as the car comes to a screeching halt.Â
I donât think Iâm breathing as I stare ahead wordlessly. My vision is blurred by the thousands of tears flowing down my face.Â
âY/n! Come on,â I feel a tug on my shoulders, and I move on autopilot as Iâm being forced out of Stefanâs car.
âElena, Y/n, get in the car,â Stefanâs voice calls from behind us.Â
I donât say anything as I stare blankly at the dark forest ahead of me. I can hear Elena and Stefan arguing, but I canât focus on anything they say. All I can really hear is the loud beating of my heart.Â
A weight around my shoulders shocks me as I feel Elena weep into the corner of my neck.
âIâm so sorry, Y/n. Iâm so sorry.â
â
âCome on, Pukey. Letâs go home.â
I look away from the dark pavement I have been staring at for the past 15 minutes and stare up at the blue-eyed vampire who is staring down at me. When I donât say anything, Damon kneels to my sitting position.
âShit,â Damon winces and reaches his hand up to softly touch my forehead, âHe got you good, didnât he?â
Damon brings his wrist to his mouth, and I quickly flinch away.Â
âPlease, donât,â I say, and more tears fall from my eyes.Â
Damonâs face drops, and he quickly puts his wrist down, âYa, okay.â
Damon stares at me for a long moment as if thinking of what to do. With a sigh, I feel his hands go under my arms and legs, and Iâm being picked up.Â
âI can walk,â I softly say.
âI highly doubt that,â Damon says back.
â
An hour later Iâm sitting on my bathroom floor clutching the toilet. Iâve been throwing up for the past 15 minutes, and I donât see any signs of stopping anytime soon.Â
My phone ringing catches my attention and I go to ignore it until I see Matt calling. Shit.Â
I pick up the phone and answer it, âWeâre fine, Matt,â I try to get out even though my throat burns.Â
âTyler bit Caroline.â
â
âY/n? I didnât think Iâd hear from you,â Alastair sounds happy as he answers my call.Â
âAlastair,â I stop and take a sip of my water, trying to keep down more vomit.Â
âY/n? Whatâs going on? Whatâs wrong?â
âIâve had a long night,â I am able to get out, âI need a favor.â
âIâll be right over.â
â
Alastair rushes up the steps of my porch, and he growls when he sees the condition Iâm in.Â
âWhat the fuck happened? Who did this to you? Iâll kill them,â Alastair kneels in front of me and takes my face into his hands, accessing my face.
âI donât matter. That's not why I called you,â I try to push him away, but Iâm so dehydrated and tired that I really have no strength.Â
âOf course, you matter,â Alastair harshly says, âYou matter more than practically anything.â
âAlastair, please. I donât want to fightâŚI donât think I can.â
At my weak words, Alastair nods, âOkay, letâs go inside and talk.â
I shake my head, âElenaâs asleep in my room. I donât want to wake her. Besides, I need you to take me to Klaus.â
At the mention of the Original, Alastair freezes.Â
âWhat? Why?â
âCaroline,â I swallow, a sob building in my throat, âTyler bit her. I needâŚKlaus needs to..â
Harsh breaths escape me, and Alastair doesnât waste any time pulling me into him.
âIâve got you. Itâs okay. Iâve got you, babe.â
âPlease, Alastair. I need to see him!â
Alastair doesnât say anything for a moment, and Iâm about to get on my knees and start begging, but I release a heavy sigh of relief once I feel him nod.Â
âYa, okay. Iâll take you to him.â
â
âHe lives here?â
I look up at the mansion, which looks like itâs in construction, and frown.Â
âWe both do,â Alastair comes up from behind me and guides me up a massive staircase to the front door.
âIâm too exhausted to ask you about that right now,â I say weakly, and I hear him laugh.
I take a deep breath as Alastair steps in front of me and pushes open the enormous front door. He moves out of the way so I can enter, and even though the house/mansion is still being built, itâs still stunning.Â
âWhat is she doing here?â
Klaus seems to trigger my waterworks because as soon as I turn around and see him walking over to Alastair and me, the floodgates open.Â
âI hate you,â I try to say, but it comes out mostly in sobs.
I feel Alastair place a hand on my shoulder comfortingly, but I donât take my eyes off of the Original.Â
Klaus watches me and then turns to Alastair, âLeave us.â
I feel my lip quiver as I wait for Alastair to follow his orders, but I feel Alastairâs hand tighten on my shoulder.
âNo.â
Klaus narrows his eyes at the younger vampire, âWhat do you mean no?â
âI meanâŚno. Iâm not leaving her. Not in the state.â
I watch Klaus glare at Alastair, and in fear of Klaus hurting another one of my friends, I turn to Alastair.
âGo, Iâll be okay.â
Alastair looks down at me and shakes his head.
âGo, Alastair, please.â
At my pleading, Alastair sighs profoundly and then nods his head, âIâll be in the other room.â
I stare at my hands as I feel the door shut behind Alastair, leaving Klaus and me alone.Â
âCan I sit down, please,â I look up to Klaus with teary eyes.
The hybrid stares at me with furrowed brows before slowly nodding his head and gesturing to a bench in the corner of the room.Â
I place myself slowly on the bench and stare up at the man in front of me.Â
Klaus stands about 8 feet away, and for the first time, he almost seems uncomfortable. He has an odd expression on his face, his hands are shoved in his jeans, and he keeps switching his body weight from one foot to the other.Â
âWhy did you do it?â
Klaus looks at me, âI do a lot of things, love. Youâre going to have to be more specific.â
The entryway light flickers for a moment, and I let out a groan of pain as I clutch my head. The migraine Iâve been sporting all night is kicking my ass.
âY/n,â Klausâ voice calls to me, âWhatâs wrong?â
I donât say anything, to focused on my pain, but I freeze when I feel a warm hand run its way through my messed-up hair. I release a quivering breath, and for some reason, I find myself leaning into the touch. Into his touch.Â
âBreathe, Astin Min,â Klausâ voice seems to push through my pain, and Iâm able to register his words, âTell me whatâs happening.â
I open my eyes and realize that Klaus is quite literally standing over me. His hand is still soothingly running itself up and down my hair. I also realize his body is quite literally touching mine. Heâs standing between my knees, and in horror, I know I was resting my head on his lower abdomen. I fight back the horror and look up to see him already staring down at me, and I feel my breathing stop altogether. The look on his face has my bottom lip quivering. Heâs looking down at me with thisâŚsoftness. His eyebrows are squished together but not in the usual annoyed way. His eyes were once harsh and dark and light and filled with something soâŚhuman.Â
âI thinkâŚ,â Klaus nods, waiting for me to continue, âI think Iâm going to puke again.â
I quickly lean over and throw up into a potted plant.Â
Interestingly, though, Klausâ hand doesnât move from my head. Itâs now holding back my hair as I defile this plant.Â
After I think Iâve finally thrown up everything Iâve ever consumed, I lean back. Klaus steps back a tiny step as well. And if I were a stronger woman, Iâd say that I didnât miss the feeling of him. But right now, Iâm not a strong woman.Â
âYou hurt my friend.â
I look up to Klaus, who stares down at me. I want to sob as I no longer see the once-soft look in his eyes. If it was even there at all. Maybe I imagined the whole fucking thing.Â
âI know.â
âPlease heal her,â I softly ask.Â
Klaus stares down at me and shakes his head, âI canât do that, Y/n.â
I bite down on my lip as it starts to quiver, âBut you can. All you have to do is give me some of your blood, and then itâll heal her. And everything will be ok,â I let out a small sob, âI need it to be all okay. Okay?â
Klaus continues to stare down at me, and I let out a loud sob when I see no change in his face.Â
I stand up on shaking legs and walk towards him.Â
âPlease, Klaus. I know you hate me. Trust me, youâre not the only one; Iâm not a likable person,â I let out a pathetic laugh, âAnd Iâm nothing special, no witch, werewolf, doppelganger, or anything like that. I am not rich, so I canât give you any money or anything worth value, butâŚIâm asking you,â I shake my head, âNo, Iâm begging you, please. Please help my friend. Iâll do anything you ask. CarolineâŚCarolineâs a good person, and she has a bright future. A bright future that she deserves. Sheâs my friend, and I donât have many friends. Not that it matters to you, butâŚif thereâs something I can give you. Please⌠please tell me.â
I stand there, pathetically crying, in front of the Original Hybrid.Â
With blurry vision, I watch his hand rise, and I close my eyes, accepting my fate, but once I feel his warm palm resting against my cheek and his thumb brushing away my tears, I let out yet another sob.Â
âI can do practically anything on this Earth, Astin Min. But, hating you? That is something I could never do. Even if I wanted toâŚeven if I tried.âÂ
I release a shaky breath, and maybe itâs because Iâm fighting a nasty head injury, dehydration, and a severe lack of sleep, but I find myself leaning back into the man. And maybe because Iâm a weeping teenage girlâŚor maybe not, but he lets me.Â
We stand there for what seems like forever, Klausâ arms wrapped around my shaking body. But then I remembered why I had come there, and finding comfort in the man who was responsible made me pull away.Â
I donât look back up to him, but I can feel his eyes on me.
âAlastair.âÂ
Klausâ voice calls, and within a split second, Alastair bursts into the room and looks at meâor really checks me overâalmost like a worried mother.Â
Klaus moves away from me and over to a table in the other room. I watch silently as he grabs a glass, raises his hand to his mouth, and bites into it. He then lets his blood fill the glass.Â
âTake this to her friend,â Klaus says, walking back over to us and handing the glass to Alastair.Â
I release a relieved sigh.
Alastair nods and then gestures for me to follow, âCome on, Y/n.â
âNo,â Klausâs voice stops both of us. Iâll take her home. You bring that to her friend.â

Hi lovely! Can I have wolfstar (or either of the two boys, itâs up to you) with reader who is just not having the best time, but doesnât like being comforted/taken care of (even though she rlly needs it once in a while) because she doesnât like the feeling of not being totally independent if that makes sense-? Like, she feels if she gets help then that means she canât manage stuff on her own, and she wants to be able to manage stuff on her own. But at the same time she needs comfort rn yk?
I swear the way you write wolfstar has me kicking my feet every time. I fucking love your writing! Bye bye and thank you đ
Thank you for your request lovely! I adore them <3

Coming home and taking off your coat doesnât hold the same relief as it used to lately. The weight of the day stays with you, coiled up around your ribcage like a snake that squeezes incrementally tighter every time you think of it. Still, itâs nice to come home to the smell of basil and the sound of Remusâ music playing from the kitchen.Â
You set your bag down, going to find your boyfriends but spotting a plate of brownies on the table. You slow looking at it, and Sirius meets you halfway. He kisses you hello and wraps you up in a hug.Â
âIâm so happy youâre home,â he murmurs conspiratorially. âRemusâ knee is hurting him, but he wonât say and he wonât get out of the kitchen. I need you to divert him.â You hum your assent, and he chuckles at your distraction, kissing beside your ear. âHow was your day, beautiful?âÂ
âFine,â you say. âAre those brownies?âÂ
âYeah, Rem made them. The kind with the dark chocolate you like. Now, a real answer, please. How was your day?âÂ
âOh, it wasâŚit was okay.âÂ
Your voice sounds hesitant and melancholy even to your own ears. Sirius coos, hugging you tighter. He strokes up and down your spine, encouraging you to relax into him. âMâsorry, lovebug.âÂ
You shrug him off when he starts to sway you gently, shoving down on the emotion that rises in your throat.Â
âDonât be sorry,â you say, offering him a little smile. âIt was fine.âÂ
Still, Sirius looks sad. âOkay,â he says. âWhy donât you go put on something more comfortable, and Iâll make sure our lovely boy is ready for you when you come back.âÂ
You huff a laugh. âIs that code?âÂ
He grins wickedly. âIt is if you want it to be, gorgeous. Go on.â He turns you by the shoulders towards your bedroom, giving you a pat to your bum. âGo. Remus,â he calls towards the kitchen, âour angel just told me she really wants a cuddle from you. Sounds like you should join her on the couch.âÂ
It surprises you when Remus actually is waiting for you when you get back. Heâs stretching his knee out, foot propped on the coffee table, but he smiles when he sees you.Â
âHi,â you say, your own lips tilting as you sit beside him. âDid you make me brownies?âÂ
âWell, Iâd like to have at least one.â He takes your face in hand, kissing you with a grin on his lips. âBut theyâre mostly for you, yeah.âÂ
âThat was sweet of you.â You take his hand in yours. The pads of your fingers rove the lines of his palm. âThank you, you didnât have to.âÂ
âI wanted to,â he says simply. His gaze is warm as he watches you, so knowing you have to look away.Â
âDid you leave Sirius in the kitchen?â He nods. âWhatâs he making?âÂ
âPasta for dinner. Itâs nearly done.âÂ
âI should help.â You start to get up, but Remus holds onto your hand.Â
âHeâs got it, sweetheart. I wouldnât normally trust him in the kitchen, but even Sirius can boil water.âÂ
âI know, butââ You extricate your hand from his gently, making it up with a smile. ââyouâve been doing stuff in there all day. Itâs my turn to help.âÂ
Remus calls after you. Sirius must hear, because he apprehends you as soon as you enter the kitchen, keeping you from going further.Â
âWhat do you think youâre doing?âÂ
âStop,â you laugh, pushing against his hands. âI want to help.âÂ
âNo one has any faith in me,â Sirius complains. âRemus has already done the hard work of chopping the basil and everything. Iâm perfectly capable of boiling water.âÂ
âThatâs what I told her,â Remus defends himself from the living room.Â
You look behind Sirius for something that needs doing, but the collection of prepared ingredients gives you pause. You know this recipe. Itâs your favorite pasta, your comfort food.Â
âWhy am I cursed with beautiful, stubborn partners who wonât have a rest when they need one?â Sirius laments. Now that youâve stopped resisting, heâs able to bully you out of the kitchen, back towards the living room.Â
âMy knee doesnât hurt,â you argue.Â
He levels you with a look. âNo. But thatâs not the only thing that could cause someone to need a rest, is it?âÂ
You frown at him. The snake in your ribcage gives a malicious squeeze. âIâm fine. I donât need to be coddled.âÂ
Siriusâ expression softens. âSweetheartâŚâÂ
âNo one is coddling you, lovely,â says Remus. âYouâre going through a lot right now, and maybe you are fine, but itâs okay if youâre not, isnât it?â He gives you a significant look. You press your lips together. âEither way, we only want to make things easier for you.âÂ
âI appreciate it,â you say, voice growing softer, âbut I donât need you to. I can manage it myself.âÂ
âHey, who said you couldnât?â Sirius asks. His eyebrows are bunched together, imploring. âYou are managing it, gorgeous, and youâre doing a killer job. Really, itâs impressive, but weââÂ
âWe can still be there for you at the same time,â Remus finishes.Â
You waver. Some of the playfulness comes back to Siriusâ expression. He cocks a brow at you.Â
âSo,â he drawls, âif you can handle all that by your lonesome, I donât want to hear any more complaints about me boiling water without supervision. Got it?âÂ
You crack a grin. He mirrors it, giving you a shove so that you fall back onto the couch.Â
âGood,â he says, turning around and starting back for the kitchen. âTake a rest, you freaks. Let me handle dinner for once.âÂ
âThereâs a reason that doesnât happen often,â Remus murmurs, drawing you into his side. He presses a kiss, soft and warm, to the bridge of your nose. âAre you going to be okay if your favorite pasta is al dente, lovely?âÂ
You laugh quietly, and he smiles for hearing it. âYeah, I think Iâll live.âÂ
âGood. Because Iâm afraid itâs all but guaranteed.â

trying to go to bed mad at Carmen but heâs just not having it LMFAO i just love him with a grumpy gf :(((
Youâd like to blame him for it, just because he was short with you this morning. Stressed about a food critic coming to The Bear this weekend, heâs been on edge, losing sleep, and this morning was just one of those days it was getting to him: dodging your affection, hurrying out of bed, disjointed conversations he doesnât try too hard to be a part of.
Itâs not entirely his fault, and you know this, but it doesnât make it hurt any less, to be put to the side for even a day to make room for that colder edge to him when he gets zoned in.
So you give yourself the liberty to be a little bit shitty, too, just for the night.
You donât greet him like you usually do, with a deep kiss hello and your hands squeezing at his sore muscles, offering to massage the knots in his shoulders. Instead you sit on the couch reading your book and offer him a fleeting glance. He pauses at the difference, but carries on.
You wait until long after heâs showered to get up. He even pops back into the living room beforehand, shorts hanging low in his waist, to call for you:
âYou cominâ to bed?â
âSoon,â you tell him, which could be true, but not definite.
âOkay,â he sighs, coming behind you with a hand on your shoulder and a kiss to the opposite cheek.
You donât give in, though, and he heads off to the bedroom.
You do join him eventuallyâalmost an hour later, when youâre so tired that itâll make you even more of a pain to deal with. Heâs in the middle of fighting off sleep, trying to stay awake to make sure you come to bed with him, but as much as that makes your chest yearn for him, you plop down in bed a foot away and turn your back to him.
Behind you now, he shuffles to sit up. âHey,â he tries, a soothing hand on your shoulder, âYou alright, baby?â
No response.
Scooting a little closer to lean over and see your face, he brushes hair out of the way to press a kiss to your temple. âCâmon, talk tâme.â
But you turn away from his touch, and he scoffs.
âWhat, you mad at me now?â He watches you expectantly. âNot even gonna tell me what I did?â
âYou didnât do anything, Carmen,â you mumble, face muffled into your blanket.
âWhâbaby, donât be like that right nowââ
âBe like what?â you snap, sitting up and turning to look at him. âIâm sorry that my needs donât align with your work schedule. Just let me know when itâd be best to reach you next time.â And with that, you drop back into bed, moving just a little further away from him.
He nearly laughs, then, real subtle with a hand rubbing his eyes and forehead because he knows you, he knows how you get when you miss him. He turns back onto his side with a groan and reaches his hand upon your waist, smoothing beneath the fabric of your shirt.
âDonât touch me,â you spit, but you donât dare move his hand away: it feels so much better this way, getting the touch he didnât give you this morning.
âYouâre beinâ mean today. You all cranky âcause you miss me, âs that it?â
You donât answer.
âCâmon,â he urges you, shuffling closer so that his arm wraps fully around your waist and his face can bury into your neck with a kiss to your smooth skin. ââM sorry for beinâ shitty this morning.â Instinctively, he draws a hand up your tummy, right beneath your breasts. âMissed you all day, yâknow that?â
âJust leave me alone, Carm, Iâm serious.â
ââM really sorry about this morning, baby.â Pressing kisses to your neck, he takes a deep breath to sink into you. âAfter that guy comes, itâll be over with, and Iâll take a couple days off, alright?â
âI donât care, do what you want.â
He sighs, deep and gravelly and frustrated with your anticsâbut more so frustrated with himself. He has been shitty this week, he knows it, and he knows you especially donât deserve it. âCâmon, hon, youâre killinâ me here, at leastâat least gimme a kiss goodnight, huh?â
But you donât. Because of course you donât, heâs on youâre fuckinâ nerves with his distance latelyâbut this, his rough hands against your skin, his pleading, his groveling like he canât imagine a world without youâŚit helps.
A little.
Not quite enough to cave or give in, though.
He seems to lose a bit of strength against you, laying into the mattress on his back again with a sigh and an arm resting over his eyes. The room stills, the fan whirrs, yet the tension between you is thick enough yet to slice through it with his chefâs knife.
That is, until his arms wrap around you again, and his hands grip your waist tight, and he lets out a grunt of a Canât believe youâre makinâ me do this, and he wrangles you on top of him, leaving you chest to chest, with your face nuzzled into the crook of his neck and his hand rubbing soothing patterns up and down your back while the other holds you steady, worried youâll slither away again.
Like he knew it would, the tension in your body dissolves. And maybe thatâs what you wanted anyway, but youâd never tell him thatâat least, not until tomorrow morning.
The room stills again. The hand smoothing along your back sneaks beneath your shirt, and you melt that much quicker. Itâs hypnotic, his rough palms against your soft skin, scratches an itch you didnât know was there until he wasnât. He smells crisply clean and of the body wash he buys because you like the scent, a little musky with aldehydes and vetiver and sandalwood.
âThis better, baby?â he murmurs, lending a careful kiss to your head.
But you only bury yourself further into him and answer with âMm.â
He chuckles a bit, squeezes you tighter to make your heart throb. âThought youâd say somethinâ like that.â Punctuates it with more kisses where he can reach, because now that heâs got you tethered to him again, he doesnât think he could let you go.
The two of you stay where you are, then, just soaking in the otherâs presence with wordless appreciation exchanged, growing heavier with sleep as heartbeats sync and eyelids slip closed. And by morning, legs will be intertwined, and Carmen will pull you from a groggy daze with a kiss to your lips, and youâll be a little less bitter when he heads off to work.
(He knows itâll simmer till he comes home, but if he gets to sleep with your weight and your warmth again, heâs sure itâll be alright.)

The repetitive thwack of the punching bag keeps you going. Harder and harder, faster, more precise.
Your knuckles are bleeding. It stains the vinyl of the bag. They sting with every slight adjustment of your hand, with every punch. Theyâre probably misaligned, too. On the verge of breaking. But itâs not enough.
Sweat drips down your forehead and back. Youâve been down here for hours. You donât want to leave.
Itâs so fucking childish - you know that. But it hurts so fucking bad. Hearing the way he speaks to her, like youâre not in the room. The way he seeks out the banter and teasing conversations they share. The way he looks at herâŚ
Is the only thing youâre good for your loyalty?
And itâs not like he hasnât noticed the way you distance yourself. Heâs brought up your over-the-top silence, saying he hasnât heard your voice in a week. Heâs tried asking whatâs wrong, but you never answer. And when you stopped sleeping in his room altogether? He looked exhausted the next day, staring after you like he was working to decipher why heâd been left to sleep alone. The only company you seemed to seek anymore was that of Mephistoâs.
God, Mephisto. That crow had shown you their excursion to enhance her ability. You couldnât deny the sick satisfaction you got when she still couldnât Resonate with him, whether itâs because she found him âdisgustingâ or some other reason⌠But why did he have to look so offended by it?
You hit the bag so hard it rips. Sand pours out of the tear like water, draining onto the floor. Youâre mesmerized by it. The slight hiss of the sand moving together, pouring out like a faucet and pooling on the floor into a steadily growing pile. Itâs almost soothing.
Almost.
You kick the sand to the side. It fans out across the black floor in an arc of dappled white.
The prickle at the back of your neck puts all your nerves on high alert, but you know not to be afraid of it. You know the source. The cause of all your rage. The last person you want to see right now. Youâd even take Little Miss Hunter over him.
You turn and meet his eye. Crimson, sharp with concern to match the furrow in his brow. It burns through you, all too familiar and, once upon a time, comforting. When he could look at you and so easily know exactly what you were feeling, even before your deal. They flicker down to your hands, crusted over with blood.
âItâs not like you to hide away when something bothers you,â he states, shifting his weight to his other foot as he crosses his arms. Heâs right, too; for a while now, if something - anything - bugged you, he was the first to know, usually seconds after it started grating on your nerves. Still, you donât say anything.
Sylus sighs. Youâre nothing if not stubbornly persistent. He holds a hand out, motioning toward your own.
You think about obeying. Ever since Little Miss appeared, you havenât really touched him. It was of your own volition - a sacrifice to pull yourself away and watch from afar - but you canât deny how much you miss it.
His frown deepens when you stay exactly where you are. âSo itâs something Iâve done.â Your face remains set and unemotive. His hand returns to its crossed position, finger tapping against his leather jacket. âSomething so terrible youâd rather hide away from me.â
He looks you up and down, studying every small tell he can find, any twitch or involuntary muscle spasm. He doesnât find any. Another frustrating skill of yours. The only thing he can latch onto is the state of your hands. Heâs not used to seeing your own blood staining your knuckles. If you used your bare hands at all, the only blood youâd be covered in when all was said and done was that of your prey.
âAnd enough to harm yourself.â
He meets your eyes again. It almost feels familiar. That intense insistence on knowing you, on wanting to know every single thing about you even if it takes eons. But now itâs not out of an innate desire to unravel the secrets you wrap yourself in. Itâs prying. Itâs grabbing bolt cutters and breaking away each chain link one by one.
He takes a slow step forward, testing the waters.
You donât move.
He takes another, dropping his arms to his side.
You study him in return. Heâs tense. You see it in the set of his shoulders.
Heâs five feet away when Mephisto appears in a whirl of smoke on your shoulder. He caws twice before projecting a video on a little holographic screen.
Little Miss Hunter, searching for the brooch. Yesterday, Mephisto had snuck it off Sylusâs body and brought it to you. Youâd had a brief moment of fun teasing Little Miss with it, silently taunting her as you twirled it lazily between your fingers while she threatened you. You have no doubt after hiding it that it found its way back to Sylus.
You watch his face as he watches the screen. The intensity leaves his eyes, replaced with the calculating stare of a businessman in his trade. He watches her frustratedly try to break the lock on a cabinet, determined to check behind every item on display to make absolutely sure the brooch isnât hiding behind them. When she turns to the bookshelf in a huff, she pauses. Sylusâs eyes narrow a fraction. She runs over to the shelf and starts emptying it out book by book, fanning through pages for any sign of a secret compartment to hide something inside. There was one book of such a nature; youâd hid the brooch inside of it, just to see if she would be hell-bent enough to search through every single one.
He looks away from the projected images, eyes softer than before. Heâs figured you out, youâre sure of it.
âSearch me,â he says. Itâs not a demand, itâs an offer. Your expression falters for a millisecond, but he catches it. Of course he catches it. He opens his arms, inviting you in. Mephistoâs video feed disappears from view as he flies up to sit on the broken punching bag. âFind the brooch.â
You glance him up and down. There are plenty of places for something that small to hide.
Hesitantly, you step forward. His eyes follow you, but he remains still. This close, you refuse to look at his face. You havenât been near enough to feel his radiating heat like this in so longâŚ
You feel his sides first. The pockets of his leather jacket, both inside and out, are empty. Thereâs nothing concealed in his waistband. You donât look at his face as you reach up to feel along his collar and lapels.
You pat along the length of both his arms. Aside from muscle, you find nothing. You reach into his pants pockets, but the only thing you pull out is his phone. You slip it back in before feeling down the long length of his legs. You pull up the bottom hem of his pants and check the top of his socks that peek out of his shoes, but thereâs still nothing there.
You stand up, hands falling back to your sides. You meet his eyes. He doesnât have the brooch.
Mephisto caws again. You turn to look over your shoulder. Little Miss Hunter, surrounded by a pile of books, triumphantly holds up the red-jeweled brooch, dropping the book you hid it in into the mess. Gentle fingers glide along your jaw to turn your face back to him.
Sylus looks at you in a way you never thought youâd see again. Heâs leaned down to reduce the strain on his neck and be closer to you, but thereâs still about a foot of distance between you. Even the way he touches you is reserved, like heâs waiting for you to pull away or punch him.
âIâm sorry.â
Your breath hitches. He⌠apologized? Of all the things he could have said, you never expected that.
âWhatever binds me to her,â he whispers, âit holds nothing to you. I should have made that clear much sooner.â
âWhat binds you to her?â Your voice is raspy from disuse. His shoulders relax, just so relieved that youâre speaking to him again.
He shakes his head slightly. âA past I should have buried a long time ago.â
Itâs vague, he knows it. You wish he would tell you more, tell you exactly what happened that has him so inextricably connected to Little Miss Hunter. But he never pried into your own past, for better or worse. Maybe you both need them to die, buried at least 12 feet under and covered with a block of cement.
You lift your hand to trace his cheek. He sighs, leaning into the touch. Your fingers are rough and cracked, blood drying on your knuckles. The copper twang is hard to miss. He turns his head to kiss your palm, eyes closing in reverence. You fully cup his cheek and draw him in, kissing him softly at first.
Your lips tremble with overwhelming emotion. The anger that burns in your heart is slowly snuffed out by the soothing balm of his quiet sigh, a hushed whisper of your real name, not your moniker. You wonder for the first time since this began if he felt the same loss you did when you began distancing yourself from him. When you went back to your old room instead of sleeping in his bed, if he looked so tired the next night because he couldnât sleep at all without you there beside him.
You get your answer in the way he desperately pulls you into kiss after kiss, burning with passion and trying to catch up for the time lost. In the way his hands hold your face, tangling with the hairs at the back of your neck as he keeps you close. In the way he sighs and gasps so longingly, savoring everything you give him.
He feels how much you missed him in much the same way. In the way you step closer until your bodies are pressed together. In the way you grab onto his jacketâs lapel. In the way you dig your bloody fingers in his white hair.
Youâre both panting when he finally pulls away, breaths mixing in the centimeters between your faces as he refuses to move back any farther, forehead resting insistently against yours. Neither of you say anything for a moment, basking together in the quiet aftermath of the storm.
His hand is warm and gentle when he pulls yours from his hair. He turns it over to press featherlight kisses along your busted up knuckles. âLetâs take care of you, sweetheart, hm?â His eyes are half-lidded with affection when he looks at you. âThe auction is tomorrow night. I need to show everyone just who I belong to.â
Your heart skips in your chest as you draw him in again by his leather jacket, biting down sharply on his lower lip. He hisses at the sting, but groans with want when you pull away. His eyes are drawn to his blood on your lips. âIâll make sure they never forget.â

Parents
You get a call from your parentsâ home number a few weeks before Christmas. Your mother and father haven't actually bothered seeing you since your wedding day last year but Lucas is four months old now and thereâs suddenly a strange interest from them in being grandparents to your firstborn. Somehow, they talk you into spending Christmas with them and reassure you that theyâll take care of everything as long as you bring their grandson. The whole idea causes a ball of anxiety to settle in your stomach, almost imitating getting hit right in the solar plexus with how much your breath struggles to even out as you tell Javier about it. Your husband agrees reluctantly but not without raising a concerned brow, asking you several times - and with days between each time - if you are absolutely sure.Â
He even asks you now as he parks the car in your parentsâ driveway, looking at you with a serious expression, brows furrowed while you sit stiffly in the passenger seat. You glance towards the front door, trying to act casual as if youâre staring at a wild animal who might pounce if it notices your anxiety. It is an odd feeling you get, staring at your childhood home but feeling more as if it is the scene of a crime. This house is not a memory of warm and fuzzy feelings but rather a place of constant criticism and unjust pain.Â
Javier says your name softly beside you. On the backseat, Lucas hiccups.
âDo I look okay?â You quickly ask instead of acknowledging the tone of his voice, fixing your hair without changing anything.Â
âYeah,â he answers and tries not to comment on your nerves, âYou look beautiful, mi amor (my love).â
The call from two weeks ago had your shoulders tensing up before you even answered the phone but the way they had reasoned you into revisiting the place of your hardest years has made your shoulders not come down again.Â
You sigh gently and unbuckle your seatbelt, âOkay. I can do this for just an afternoon. Letâs get this over with.â
You climb out of the car, Javier following you after carefully unbuckling Lucas and cradling him in one arm while balancing the diaper bag on the other shoulder. You leave his car seat, knowing how much easier it would have been to transport your son inside in it but Lucas has been fussy all night. You really wish he hadnât because you donât want to go inside with only half the energy that a good nightâs sleep could have provided.Â
As you ring the doorbell, you take a look at Javier one last time, âPlease donât interfere. I donât want to make everyone uncomfortable.â
âBaby, are you sure thatââ
âOh, there you are!â Your mother exclaims when she opens the door with a syrupy smile, âWe were starting to wonder if youâd gotten lost.â
âSorry. Life with a baby and all,â you shake your head with an embarrassed chuckle and try to ignore the tension in your muscles, shrugging your coat off your shoulders to reveal your wine-red button-up and dark skirt.Â
âHoney, I thought you knew we always dress up a little during the Holidays,â your mother says while glancing at your outfit with veiled disdain, âWhereâs that nice blue dress? With the ribbons?â
âThis is all that fits me right now, that isnât maternity clothes,â you answer apologetically at the first jab of many. Beside you, Javier takes a step closer to you without saying anything.Â
âAnyway! Whereâs the little man?â Your mother chirps, already having moved on and looking to Lucas who has started stirring in Javierâs arms. When she gets closer, about to reach out to run a hand over his little head, Lucas immediately starts whimpering as if he is aware of the unpleasantries that his mother has had to endure at the mercy of this woman. He knows the culprits before theyâve even revealed themselves.Â
âOh, heâs a little fussy, isnât he?â She laughs it off and retreats much to your relief, letting Javier bounce your son to make him settle down again. When he quietens down again, you share a glance with your husband who signals that everything is okay. You take a deep breath and let him handle the situation.Â
âWhereâs Dad?â You ask to turn your attention away from your crying child, smoothing out a nonexistent crease in your skirt.Â
âI think heâs just about to get the turkey out of the oven,â your mother says, wagging a finger in Lucasâ face with a little smile, âWhy donât you go say hi and I talk to my grandson for a moment? Oh, look at you, Lucas! Youâre just perfect, arenât you?â
You reluctantly leave the three of them to head for the kitchen. You can feel each family photograph staring back at you as you walk through the hallway to your destination; a picture of your five-year-old self on a bike but somehow no picture of your graduation ceremony as if it has been decided where things went wrong before you could acknowledge it yourself.Â
âHey Dad, smells so good in here,â the kitchen does indeed smell wonderfully as you walk through the door. Your father looks at you over his shoulder, giving you a little smile and you try not to think about how he didnât bother to come out to greet you.Â
âMom and I were wondering if you were ever coming,â he notes while plating pieces of turkey meat. In the hallway, you can hear Javier striking up polite conversation. Heâs handling your mother with his usual calmness, and you feel grateful for his presence yet embarrassed that you arenât strong enough to handle it yourself.
You shrug a little, Javierâs presence giving you the courage to try and mirror said calmness, âNewborns, you know.â
âHeâs four months,â he corrects.Â
âRight, time flies,â you reply with your confidence fading fast, the words coming out in a way that doesnât quite carry the quick wit that Javier usually loves about you. You touch your arm, standing awkwardly by the counter, âStill figuring it out as we go.â
Your father doesnât turn around, âParentingâs not rocket science, you know. Your mother and I managed just fine without all the made-up nonsense you young people talk about these days.â
You jump a little as your mother puts a hand on your shoulder and says your name to get your attention. You look back at her, âCan you set the table? I put the tablecloth ready on the silverware cabinet.â
âSure, Mom,â you smile, already heading for the dining room to escape from your fatherâs subtle judgments. You find Javier has already gone, an irrational thought popping into your head of how he has bolted and left you to deal with your mom and dad by yourself.Â
You glance into the kitchen as you start placing the plates in each of their respective places, âWhereâs Javier?â
âHe went to get the presents from the car,â your mother replies from the kitchen. You hear her take out a serving bowl from a cabinet.Â
âOh, I should go help him wiââÂ
âHeâs your husband, sweetie. Let him handle it. Thereâs no need to emasculate him like that,â she is suddenly in the doorway, staring you down in a way that makes your hands shake. Her gaze drops to the table and her brows furrow, âYouâre using the wrong plates!â
You look up with a racing heartbeat, âWhat?â
She sighs your name audibly, âThese arenât the Christmas plates. We donât use regular plates for special occasions. Honestly, I thought youâd know better.â
The words sting and you set down the plates you have been holding in case the littlest twitch will make you drop it onto the floor, âSorry, Mom.âÂ
âAh well, now youâll never forget it,â she jokes without humor in her voice as she opens the door to the china cabinet, pulling out the plates adorned with what you recognize to be hand-painted holly. You shamefully realize you know them from childhood Christmases and that they are exactly where theyâve always been.Â
Automatically, you gather the wrong plates to make room for the right ones. Itâs Christmas, you remind yourself as you do it. It is one day. You can survive one day.Â
âSee? Isnât this much better?â She says cheerfully when your mistake has been corrected and while you nod, Javier reenters the house.Â
He joins the two of you, carrying a large gift bag in one hand and holding Lucas on the other arm. You immediately go to take him, doing a careful transfer until you can lay his tiny body against your shoulder while supporting his bottom.Â
âÂżTodo bien? (Everything okay?)â Javier asks quietly when you follow him into the living room where the tree stands. He sets down the bag and tries to act casual, laying out the gifts and waiting for your honest response in the meantime. Apparently, you havenât been as successful in hiding the distress on your face as you thought you had.Â
You force a smile that doesnât reach your eyes and Lucas starts whining again. You bounce him gently, âItâs nothing. Just⌠Christmas stuff.â
Javier glances toward the hallway to the kitchen where your parentsâ voices can be heard faintly over the sounds of cooking. His jaw tightens slightly and his mouth becomes a thin line.Â
âDonât,â you say as firmly as you can muster because you wish he would, âItâll only make it worse.â
âDame un beso (give me a kiss),â he says instead, and you shyly lean in to peck him on the lips. Afterward, he pulls back but only after stroking Lucasâ back, âYouâre both doing great, okay? Donât let them get in your head.â
You are interrupted by your motherâs voice ringing out from the dining room, telling you that dinner is ready. Javier kisses you one last time before reassuring you that everything will be okay and that he is in your corner. You try to smile, tense as you take a seat with Lucas still in your arms.Â
The Christmas meal begins with polite conversation, your father asking Javier about work and your mother telling you about neighbors that you havenât spoken to in years. You mostly just speak when spoken to, having decided to focus on your baby as he keeps wriggling in your arms in discomfort. You try to rub his belly, try to make him settle by giving him your attention but still, his tiny face crumbles and he lets out a string of small complaints.Â
âMaybe we could open presents while he naps?â You suggest hesitantly when your mother has given you enough judgemental advice, âHeâs been so fussy all night, and I donât want him to get more overwhelmed than heââ
âOh, for heavenâs sake,â your mother says your name with a sigh. You hear Javierâs chair scrape against the floor, almost as if he is about to get up and get ready for a physical altercation.
âLetâs do whatever is easiest for the baby,â your father interrupts, placing a hand on your motherâs wrist. Her annoyance shines through her eyes but she nods with a smile nonetheless.Â
âOf course,â you hear her grit out, âItâs just⌠Weâd love to spend time with him. Weâve already missed so much, and Luke needs his grandparents.â
âWeâll see,â Javier answers for you.Â
The dinner continues in mostly silence with turkey being substituted by pie, cutlery clinking against plates, and glasses being lifted and set down again. Thereâs tension so thick that it can be cut with a knife, your mother glancing at Lucas with a smile before it disappears from her face when she shifts her gaze to your direction. Â
Mercilessly, she finally speaks, âSo, honey, have you thought about when youâll start losing the baby weight?â
âMom!â You exclaim in shock, surprised that sound comes out when your throat feels like it is about to close up completely.
In the same manner as one would spit out a drink in shock, Javierâs fork scrapes unpleasantly against his plate, and suddenly, your motherâs name falls from his lips like the sound itself leaves him with a bad taste in his mouth. She looks startled by the interruption, almost like a deer in the headlights of a car, but it doesnât faze your husband, âMy wife looks beautiful and she has just given me - us - the greatest gift which is our son. Letâs not diminish that, shall we?â
You try to feel the weight of Lucas against your chest instead of how you donât feel safe within this house, with its bruises on the walls and its ghosts of a youth spent walking on eggshells. Lucasâ body is warm, a reminder that this doesnât matter. He matters.Â
âIâm focused on taking care of my son right now, Mom,â you reply coolly with your lips resting on the soft hairs on Lucasâ head.Â
âRight, of course. I didnât mean anything by it,â your mother argues, clearly flustered, âYou know how important it is to stay healthy for the baby.â
âYour mother just wants whatâs best for you, honey,â your father intervenes, trying to steer the conversation onto friendlier and safer topics but she has already gotten up from her seat.Â
âWhy donât I clear the table so we can move into the living room and open presents?â She mumbles, putting on a show by letting her voice waver. She has begun stacking plates before anyone can even say anything, practically fleeing the room and leaving you all looking slightly sheepish. Javier hides the roll of his eyes exceptionally well and he smiles when you catch him.
âIâll put Lucas down for a nap,â you announce to what is left of the party.
Javier gets up alongside you to help you. He walks upstairs right behind you, a calming presence with the diaper bag in hand as you head for the guest room.
When you close the door behind the three of you, the tension seeps out of your body at having a quiet moment with your boys. The lighting in the room is soft and calming, almost making you want to lie down to nap with your son.Â
âThere we go,â you say as you gently place Lucas on the bed while Javier rummages through the bag for his pacifier. Lucas blinks up at you, his tiny fists balled and his chubby legs kicking excitedly. He lets out a happy gurgle.
âOh, now youâre happy,â you tease softly and kneel by the bed to rub his tummy, âPicky with who weâre smiling at, are we?âÂ
Javier joins you by the bed and offers Lucas his pacifier. Your son stretches his arms and reaches for his father, letting out a high-pitched giggle around the pacifier. However, as he suckles gently, accompanied by your soft touch that has now moved to his chubby cheeks too, his eyelids start to grow heavy.Â
When his breaths have slowed, you do whatever you can with the pillows to create a safe space for him to sleep. You create a barrier around him, ensuring as well as possible that he wonât roll over.Â
âYou know, youâd think that they would have set up a crib for him if theyâre so desperate to see him,â you murmur bitterly as you adjust the last pillow.
âYou sure you want to go back down there?â Javier asks carefully.Â
âCan you grab the baby monitor?â You ignore his question at first but Javier is already handing you the monitor, ruining your attempt at not addressing the situation further. You sigh and get up from the floor, âI can get through it. If itâll make them stop pestering me for a visit for a while.â
âI swear, one more word out of her mouth and Iâll open my own,â Javier says with anger simmering just beneath the surface. He drags you into his arms when you stand up again, hears your sigh of relief at being squeezed. It calms your nervous system so effectively that you slump.Â
âBelieve me, I feel like I am going insane,â you whisper into his neck and shoulder, grabbing aimlessly at his strong frame and inhaling his scent. He returns the desperate touch by simply rubbing your back in slow circles.Â
âYeah, I donât know how you stay so calm,â he kisses your temple a few times.Â
âTrust me, humans can endure a lot when they know thereâs a time limit,â you chuckle humorlessly and pull away, âLetâs just do the gift exchange and leave.â
Downstairs, your parents are waiting for you by the tree. The collection of presents is sparse this year due to the short notice but you find it relieving to know that the gift exchange will be over quickly.Â
Placing the baby monitor on the coffee table, you sit down on the sofa but donât allow yourself to relax into it. Javier drops down beside you but leans back into his seat, his hand resting casually on your thigh to ground you.Â
âLetâs get to the gifts. Itâll be nice to end this day on a happy note,â your mother says overly cheerfully, pretending to have forgiven and forgotten all about the situation earlier. She reaches for the first gift under the tree while your father stands ready with a bag for the wrapping paper.Â
âThatâs mine,â Javier tells her with a little smirk in your direction. He holds out his hand until she gives it to him, âTo my beautiful wife. Merry Christmas, baby.â
âHow thoughtful,â your mother mumbles and sits on the edge of her armchair.Â
âJavi, I thought we werenât on gifts this year,â you scold playfully but thereâs no seriousness to your voice. You finally smile and this time it is genuine, feeling his gaze on you while you impatiently rip the wrapping.Â
âI know what I said but I know youâll love it. Itâs more for Lucas anyway,â he informs you shyly.Â
Inside, you find two pairs of identical fuzzy and comfortable socks with a dinosaur print on them. However, one pair fits Lucasâ tiny feet and the other fits yours. Your whole demeanor changes with the sight of your gift, your face lighting up with a bright smile, âThese are so cute!â
âFor your cold feet. Thought you could use something cozy while you take care of Luke at home,â he moves his hand to rest just above the small of your back, his palm smoothing over you on top of the fabric of your blouse.Â
Your parents sit idly by. They stare at the gift with confusion and arrogance, clearly holding their tongue over how ridiculous they find it. Your mother picks at her fingers, âInteresting.â
âInteresting? Arenât they adorable?â You hold the matching socks up happily, not sure what to expect but not even your motherâs judgmental expression can bring you down right now. To really rub it in, you kiss Javierâs mouth gently in front of them, âGracias, esposo (Thank you, husband).â
But the happiness is short-lived as your father goes to get the next present from the small pile. He searches for a moment amongst the few there are, deliberately seeking out the present that you have brought them, most likely to be able to leave the room soon due to the obvious tension. He has never been one to intervene.Â
âYou shouldnât have,â your mother tuts with a small smile as she carefully unwraps it in her lap, her fingers doing everything they can to not tear the paper so she can reuse it.Â
When the framed picture of Lucas is revealed - a photo taken during an afternoon when he was particularly happy and smiling - her smile develops into a slightly wider one even if it looks against her will. She studies the picture with your father looking over her shoulder.Â
âWe thought youâd like something to remember him by,â you encourage her to say something.Â
Your mother places the photo on the coffee table, her hands smoothing out the wrapping paper while she talks, âItâs lovely, sweetie. Though Iâm sure weâd have more memories if we got to see him more often.â
You tense up beside Javier. Out of the corner of your eye, you see him do the same but he squeezes your hip to tell you that he is right there. Anxiously, you curl your fingers into your skirt but your mother isnât finished.
âI just donât understand why youâve been so distant,â she continues, cold in her tone. âYou hardly call, which would be fine but you visit even less than that, and now youâre letting Lucas sleep through his first Christmas. Itâs not like youâve gone back to work, so what is it?â
âMom, please,â you say quietly but it doesnât veil the wavering of your words, âIâm doing the best I can.â
âAre you?â She challenges, âLucas has been fussing all night, hasnât he? Maybe heâs picking up on your stress.â
You hear Javier say your motherâs name as he had during dinner, low and with warning. At the same moment, the baby monitor crackles with the sound of Lucasâ tiny complaints. The sound pulls you from your seat, your instincts to go to him overriding your desire to defend yourself from further abuse. However, your motherâs voice rings out behind you just as you take your first step.
She rolls her eyes, âOh, just let him cry a little. Youâll make him clingy if you keep running to him every time he whimpers.â
You stop in your tracks, finally turning around to look her in the eye with your own eyes narrowed. You can see Javier watching you closely while you talk, âMom, if he cries, he needs me.â
According to you, she has already gone too far but it seems that she cannot stop once she has started, âYou know, you really should stop babying him so much. He needs to learn to self-soothe.â
Tears of frustration start to build in your chest and you can feel the muscles of your throat start to tighten as they rise to your eyes, âJesus Christ, Mom, Iâm not going to stop babying my baby.â
Her final blow comes out with a deliberate intention to hurt you, âThere you go overthinking again and snapping at your mother. He is whimpering. Honestly, sometimes I wonder how Javier puts up with it. You can be such a bitch when youâre stressed.â
The room falls dead silent and the first tear escapes your eye at the cruel nickname⌠then a second and then a third until you start to cry silently and hopelessly. You suddenly feel like a teenager again, suffering from forced proximity. Your father opens his mouth but nothing comes out, seemingly not able to figure out how to defend his wife for once. It is the final straw for Javier.
âWhat did you just say?â He firmly cuts through the silence. He has gotten up from his seat and has stepped in front of you to shield you protectively from your motherâs line of sight. His nostrils flare with anger that might explode into rage at any moment but he keeps his voice steady, âYou better not have said what I think you did or I am wondering why you havenât apologized already.â
Your motherâs eyes widen at the idea of consequences. She splutters, caught off guard, âApologize? Javier, donât be ridiculous! Iâm her motherââ
Javier laughs dangerously and condescendingly and looks away with a roll of his eyes. He shakes his head, not afraid to let the room know that he thinks she sounds pathetic without even calling her out on it. He crosses his arms over his chest, âYou got a hell of a way of showing motherly love then; all you have done is tear her down today.â
âJavier,â your father tries to interject, âLetâs not make this into a scene.â
âNo,â Javier turns to him, his jaw muscles flexing slightly underneath his skin with how much anger is flowing through him. The simple word makes your father sit up straighter than before - a testament to Javierâs days in Colombia - but Javier is not done, âYou donât get to lecture me about making a scene. Not after sitting there and letting this happen. She is your daughter.â
When your father has shut his mouth, looking uncomfortable by his defeat while he leans back into his seat with no intention to follow up on his words, Javierâs fury settles on your mother once more, âWhatâs your goal here, exactly?â
Youâre aware that it isnât just a simple few tears falling from your eyes anymore but rather a silent stream that has your face puffy and sensitive. It is accompanied by grief over your younger self not having had someone like Javier in her corner. You sniffle audibly, feeling as if you have been punched in the gut with how much it hurts and humiliates you to sit idly by. Your mother catches a glimpse of you behind your husband but it doesnât seem to have any effect whatsoever.Â
âThereâs no secret agenda here, for Godâs sake. I didnât mean anything by it,â she sneers, trying to keep her demeanor straight despite the humiliation of getting called out being evident on her face.Â
âYes, you did,â Javier argues immediately and fiercely, pointing his index finger at her in an accusing manner, âYou knew exactly what you were saying. You wanted her to hurt. Well congratulations, youâve succeeded. Unfortunately, your daughter is a lot nicer than me and handled your words with a lot more grace than you deserve. I will not be doing the same thing.â
Your motherâs composure falters. She says your fatherâs name helplessly but he looks at her with tired eyes, full of quiet disappointment. Even if he is absent and passive like always, his refusal to intervene further is a sign that he would never go as far as his wife has just done. He shakes his head in disapproval, âWhyâd you do it? We were having such a nice time too.â
She gapes at your father while his gaze drops to his lap, shrinking herself slightly at the realization that she is outnumbered and has to face your husband alone. Javier takes a step closer, radiating authority when she tries to avoid further confrontation, distaste so clear on his face for how he has lost her attention for a moment. When you let out a quiet sob, too paralyzed in your spot on the couch to go to your whimpering child, his face hardens further and he continues, âListen to me.â
Your mother looks up reluctantly. She appears to be on the brink of an attempt to turn his words against him and argue right back once more, but Javier cuts her off before she can even start.Â
âYou donât talk to her like that again. Ever. And you most certainly do not question her ability to be a mother. She is a perfect mother and God knows, she hasnât gotten it from you. Lucas is a happy, healthy, and thriving baby because of her,â he takes a breath, and for a second, it seems like he might be done but then, âYou hurt my girl, you understand that? And if you ever speak to her like that again - actually if you even speak about her like that again -Â I will personally make sure you donât get to have Lucas in your life.â
âAre you threatening us?â Her composure slips even more.Â
âNo, maâam, I am instructing you,â he replies coldly, âIf you canât respect his mother, weâre done here.â
Javier turns to you now, his face softening immediately at the sight of you sitting teary-eyed on the couch with your hands clutching the baby monitor. He says your name so softly, a sound that has always felt like an unfamiliar and unwelcome sound within this house, and gently pulls the piece of technology out of your hands.Â
âListen to me, baby. Go wait in the car. Iâll get Lucas and his things,â he instructs you, placing the baby monitor on the coffee table behind him without looking away from you. He helps you to stand when you find yourself nodding.Â
When youâre up from your seat, he puts a hand on the small of your back to guide you towards the door. He doesnât say anything, doesnât let you linger in the room.Â
âYou donât have to leave,â your mother protests with obvious surprise that you and Javier are carrying out the promise of consequences. She begins pushing herself to stand.Â
âSit down, I will not let you disturb any of the peace she has left,â he commands harshly when she tries to take a step toward you.Â
Your mother falters, stunned by his audacity, and sinks back into her seat.
The moment youâre out of the front door, your legs start shaking so badly beneath you that you arenât sure if youâll even make it to the car. The walk feels endless, like climbing a mountain, the neighborhood surrounding your childhood home quiet because everyone is inside with the happy family that you never got to have growing up.Â
Until now. You have it now. However, you have left them to fend for themselves on the battlefield to slide into the front seat of the car. You rub your chest as it feels tight but it soothes nothing and suddenly, the tears come harder than they had in the living room. You rest your head against the glass window, screwing your eyes shut and feeling drips of hot tears on your cheeks.
Memories come flooding and you have no power to stop them, pictures of many nights spent in solitude in your room because it was the only illusion of sanctuary in the house before you. The sound of your motherâs scoffs, her unbearable ability to make you feel small, inadequate, and unwanted. Her year-long cruelty feels like a knife in your chest but your fatherâs silent complicity twists its blade too, makes you think that you were never worthy of defending.Â
Yet Javier had done it so effortlessly, had done what youâd wished someone would have done for you in your entire life, and he had done it without any hesitation. You are shattered by another night believing the worst about yourself, yes, but you realize that a part of your sobs comes from relief too. Suddenly, it all feels silly and you donât know why you have always stopped Javier from speaking up for you since you met because his words - she is a perfect mother - have taken the power out of your motherâs incredibly fast.Â
You hear the front door open and a shaky sob leaves you at seeing the two of your boys approach the car. Javier has the diaper bag over his shoulder whilst cradling Lucas against his chest, his face serious. He moves in long strides to get to you fast, not saying anything as he buckles Lucasâ sleeping form into his car seat before climbing into his own seat in the front.Â
You sit up again, eyes still brimming with tears that streak your face. You feel overwhelmed like you have run a marathon or fought a bear or a monster.Â
Javier puts on his seatbelt but doesnât put the key in the ignition yet. He looks out of the windshield for a moment, breathes a sigh of relief. The car is quiet except for Lucasâ soft breaths as he sleeps.
Right until Javier says your name when you donât automatically turn your head to look at him, ashamed of how the day has progressed. It is Christmas, after all, and Lucasâ first one ever too.Â
âMĂrame (Look at me),â he says in a gentle murmur.Â
You shake your head, unable to answer with how tightly wound you are. You feel his hand under your chin, carefully pulling you by your chin until your eyes meet his. His outline is blurry from all the tears but his voice cuts through the fog in gentle firmness.Â
âI love you so much, and I love our son, okay?â He says it like it is a promise, âThey aren't ever gonna to talk to you like that again because I won't allow them to. Do you understand me?â
You silently look at him through your tears, nodding weakly. He reaches to brush your tears away with a knuckle.Â
âEverythingâs gonna be okay because you donât have to see them if you donât want to. You just have to let me take care of you,â he continues and cups your cheek instead, âAnd right now, I say youâre done with them for tonight. Actually, for as long as you fucking want.â
âI want⌠I donâtâŚâ You say at first but then, âIâm sorry.â
Javier furrows his brows, âWhy are you sorry?âÂ
âBecause thatâs my mom,â you try to speak around a fresh sob, âAnd you married me and I trapped you with my fucked up family.â
âHey, heyheyhey,â he shakes his head, moving his other hand to cup your whole face now. He leans over the console of the car and rests his forehead against yours. When you simply cry harder, he pulls you into a hug, âYou didnât trap me, okay? You didnât. Iâm here because you make me happy. You make me so happy, baby, and Hell knows, I needed a bit of taking care of when you met me. Let me return the favor.â
His body is warm, soothing, and grounding. His embrace squeezes you hard enough to make you calm down, giving you a moment of quiet peace in your mind as you begin to take in his words. You feel the same. You want to say it but youâre afraid that youâll never stop crying tonight, so instead you find the courage to say those words that you should have told yourself years ago, âI donât think I want to go back.â
âWhat do you want to do then?â Javier pulls back to look at you. He moves back into his own seat again and starts the car to give you time to think clearly about his question.Â
âCan we go to your dadâs?â You ask hesitantly.Â
Javierâs brows rise slightly but he doesnât argue, just nods as he puts the car in reverse. Before reversing out of the driveway, he pulls you in to kiss your forehead softly.Â
âClaro, mi amor (Sure, my love),â he says simply, âHeâd love to see us.â

âHow can you be this happy in the morning?â Harry grunted, hoodie pulled over his head as he sat down next to a bubbly Y/N. Her couch was comfortable but it didnât make up for the fact that he was at her flat at 8 in the morning.Â
âItâs not that early, lazy bones.â She hummed, tucking her legs under her as she sat down on the other side. âThank you for coming to help today, by the way. I know you donât like getting up early.â
He really didnât, was the thing. He hated it. Harry only had so many days off and after working a long shift bartending last night, the very last thing he wanted to do was help someone unpack in their new flat. Heâd rather claw at concrete than be awake right now, rather eat a raw egg, rather go through tattoo removal. If it was anyone but Y/N he would have laughed in their face at the mere ask.Â
But it was her. It was twinkly eyed, pouty lipped, warm hearted Y/N who had asked him a week in advance and promised him a bagel with cream cheese and an iced coffee for brekkie, whatever he wanted for lunch, and âwhatever he wanted in general!â. Little did she know he was going to say yes anyway, considering he knew he couldnât say no to her sweet little ask with her smaller hand on his tattooed arm and wide eyes peering up at him. He wasnât someone who liked to do things for many people without there being some sort of monetary gain, but this was different.Â
Y/N had somehow latched herself onto one of the grumpiest bastards in the area while she herself was one of the sweetest girls heâd ever seen. Rarely spoke a mean word of anyone (except when they hurt someone close to her), went out of her way to help anyone who needed it and always wanted to be a shoulder to cry on. Heâd seen her take money from her own wallet to cover someoneâs bill when they were short, even seen her rush to help an elderly man across the street. It got her into trouble sometimes which was why he was glad that heâd been the hip sheâd chosen to attach to.Â
Their first interaction had been him sitting in the courtyard of their uni, listening to music under the tree. Heâd had his sketchbook in hand, doodling in between classes when he looked up to see a girl with a pretty yellow bow in her hair offering him a cupcake because he looked âsad.â. He had been sad, actually, but that was pretty much his normal resting face. Heâd tried to blow her off but sheâd taken a seat next to him, introducing herself and telling him about her own day to âdistract himâ. He hated to admit that it worked.Â
From then on, she popped up everywhere. At first heâd been a bit worried that she was following him but it truly was a coincidence. Y/N had found her way under his skin, wriggled her way into that cold heart of his and made it warm up just a little each time she came around. At some point sheâd become a daily fixture in his life, her texts lighting up his phone with emojis and telling him to meet her at the cafe or the library- and for some reason, he followed.
âMmm. Know yâwanted me here to see me get all sweaty. If yâwanted to see my tats and muscles so badly, you coulda just said so, Sweets.â He smirked, watching her eyes widen. So easy to fluster.Â
âNo! Stop teasing me, sânot nice.â She grumbled, poking his knee with her socked foot. Sheâd chosen lavender striped ones today. âI donât have a lot of strong friends, you know that. Niallâs cominâ by after work to help you put the bedframe together and move the books from the car. Besides, Iâll let you sleepover and everything after weâre all done. I know you loveeeee my bed.â
He did. But more than anything he liked laying in said bed with her. Harry had a hard time admitting he had begun to gain feelings for the girl but deep down he knew he did. He liked that she insisted on cuddles, curling her leg around his and nuzzling her face into his chest, or even better yet the crook of his neck. Loved when sheâd sleepily ask him questions about his life and tell him facts about her own. She resembled a tiny kitten while sleepy, insistent on getting all of the pets and attention.Â
Harry had decided he wasnât the relationship type after his last girlfriend had cheated on him with his old best mate- but meeting Y/N had reminded him of the die hard romantic that laid underneath the surface. All the hard work heâd had piling up bricks on top of his red, bleeding heart had seemed to be consistently excavated by the pastel wearing girl who still enjoyed the fairy lights he used to see online in those aesthetic bedroom photos. It scared him a bit at first. Even now, he was nervous about the idea of getting closer to her than they were now because her heart was a tender and precious thing and he didnât necessarily trust himself not to hurt her- but then again, he knew heâd do miles better than anyone else could. Heâd spent the time learning about her as the months went by, listening to her drawl on about the pinterest boards she made, her dream finds she always looked for at the thrift stores, her least favorite reality TV contestants, which pastries she found to be too dry at the cafe and which had the best level of moisture, what blankets she liked, every little tidbit he had stored away in his brain to use at a later date.Â
No one would be as protective of her as he would be, which was why lately heâd been entertaining the thought of perhaps moving past the point of no return and trying to see if maybe, possibly, perhaps.. They could be more.Â
It had come with a lot of deliberating but heâd come to understand that if he failed, Y/N wouldnât caste him to the side. Sheâd never in a million years abandon him like he feared, which only gave him more motivation to go for it though⌠He was still biding his time. He had to let her get settled here before he shook up her life a bit more.Â
They were opposites, the sweet girl and him. Harry was quite literally the bad boy cliche of everyoneâs after school specialâs dreams. His hair was long and curled, brushing his jaw. He went for darker clothing, usually his ripped black skinny jeans and a band tee but sometimes more eccentric with some silk and leaving his tits out when they went on a night out. His nose had a simple black hoop, his nails painted and chipped though this week they were a bubblegum pink, a la Y/Nâs expertise. His body was hard from the gym he liked to frequent and inked, only getting more every month. He wore the occasional eyeliner when he felt spicy. That was only the physical things.Â
Sometimes he wondered why she felt drawn to him, as she said. He was dark and moody with a darker sense of humor. Somewhat of a pessimist, he expected the worst from people and tended to stay away from them the best he could. The opposite of a social butterfly, he only usually went out in the past for a drink or to get his cock wet, never for the pleasure of interacting with people. Even then it was rare considering he did quite well in the hookup area being a bartender himself.Â
Harry often wondered how and why she felt the pull to be around him and why she felt so at ease in his presence but he figured it had to be that heâd knocked the lights out of a bloke in her philosophy class whoâd been riding her ass. Heâd made the wrong decision of cornering Y/N at a party Harry had been dragged to, touching her a bit too much and not listening when her smile became thin and she backed away from him after giving a rejection much too polite than the man deserved. There had been no hesitation in laying him out, tugging Y/N into his side and demanding she stay with him for the rest of the party after she insisted she didnât need to go home.Â
Funnily enough sheâd been a hit with his own small group of friends, everyone also feeling the same sort of kindred protection over her. Not many people were genuinely warm and fuzzy in the way she was.Â
Y/N was⌠She was the sun, she was a cinnamon roll fresh baked on a sunday morning, she was a kitten sprawled in a sunbeam. All the good things, he could find a way to relate them to her. That probably should have been the indicator he had feelings for her far sooner than heâd ever let himself admit, but she had taken the time to crack him open.Â
It was hard to stop thinking about what made her both his opposite and so special. Harry dwelled on how soft her clothing always was, both in color and texture. She liked those pastel colors and fuzzy cardigans, hair bows and those signature mary janes with the tiny heels. Lip oil as opposed to lip gloss because it was âtoo stickyâ but still dragged all his attention to her lips and made him wonder if it really tasted like tangerine like it smelled.Â
Her touch was gentle and tender, cautious at first but as soon as she got the go ahead, she showered you in attention. At least, she did to him. Brushing stray hairs out of faces and wiping crumbs off cheeks, she had little sense of personal space once granted permission. Sheâd been mindful of his distaste for touch at the beginning but once heâd leaned into it, the girl had no qualms about straightening his shirt or leaning into his form, hell- there had been a few times sheâd helped herself to his lap when there was no other seating option. Usually that was when she was tipsy considering she would most likely be a little shy sober, but that was something he enjoyed.Â
The light to his dark, he doubted anyone else could make him feel the way she could. Hence why he was up after only getting 4 hours of sleep, sipping the coffee sheâd gotten him. There was little he wouldnât do for a hint of her smile.Â
â--
âBabe, youâve got tâmake a decision.â Harry said gently, placing the large mirror down and leaning it against the wall.Â
âI know, I know but⌠Itâs bad luck to have your mirror facing your bed.â She wrung her fingers together. âIâm sorry, H. I know Iâve been a bit of a pain in the rear today. I promise mânot trying to, but Itâs my first place and I just want it to be perfect.â Her head looked down, making his heart squeeze.Â
God damn it. Leave it to her to make him feel like heâd kicked a puppy. Sighing, he tugged the bandana on his head back into place and approached her, placing his hand on her shoulder. âMânot upset with you. Promise. I just think youâre overthinking it a bit.â Her superstitions did tend to make her feel a little squirrely sometimes and he knew it. âWeâre gonna make it look perfect. Incredible, even. Reckon the magazines will be calling you up to feature you, but we canât just have a freestanding mirror slab.â Heâd picked it up for her off of craigslist just a bit ago. Even if it wasnât a dodgy listing, he wouldnât let her go on her own. Thatâs how people got kidnapped.Â
âUgh, I know.â She groaned, flopping into his chest. Never mind it being sweaty, she rubbed her nose between his tits and let out a tired groan, her hair smacking his chin. Itâd been tossed up in a very messy bun that was a bit lopsided but made her look doubly as cute, though he didnât tell her that. âWhy donât we mount it to the back of your door then? Not facing your bed, or another mirror.âÂ
He could almost hear her brain going as she mulled it over before he felt the nod against his chest. âThat will be good, I think. I love that idea.â Y/N had been going back and forth over design choices with him all day as if he had a clue about interior decor, but he had appreciated her caring about his opinion nonetheless. âThat can be the last thing we do. Niallâs fucked off somewhere futzing with the books so we can eat after thatâs done.âÂ
The thud of his heart against her ear was steady as he gently ran a hand over her shoulderblade. âWhatâs on the menu?âÂ
âThink weâre ordering pizza because I know mâtoo tired to cook which means you lot have to be too.â She chuckled, finally prying herself out of his chest and blinking up at him.âThen we can go to bed.â He was thankful her ear was away from his heart so she couldnât hear the way it stuttered. Youâd think after sleeping in her bed a multitude of times that heâd get used to the sound of that sentence but it still did him in every time.Â
âOkay. I can run and pick it up after I mount this to the door if you call it in.â He knew she wouldnât want to go. It was visible on her face how tired she was and it melted him internally. He knew that sheâd be a little snuggly menace tonight and fuck if he wasnât looking forward to it. âGonna run into the pharmacy tâgrab some body wash for here, if thats okay?â
âCourse it is.â She beamed at the suggestion, making him happy that heâd even brought it up. Y/N used to suggest he sleep heer a lot before and heâd refuse, thinking she was just trying to be polite- but she really did enjoy him staying with her. âI liked the pomegranate one you used last time, just sayinâ.â Patting his chest she moved from his grip, heading to grab her phone. âNormal for you?â
âYeah, love. Same as usual.â He rubbed over the achy spot in his chest that sheâd left by pulling away, looking forward to sleeping tonight so he could feel it fill back up.
â-----------
Harry had grabbed the pomegranate bath stuff. Heâd grabbed the whole line, actually, the shampoo, conditioner, body wash and some sort of âskin buff.â Whatever that was.Â
Y/N had squeaked as he showed her, along with a pack of the makeup wipes she usually used and heâd steal. Heâd figured it was about time to be the one to buy the replacements. âAh! And you got the face mask I like.â Her eyes were wide and bright as she bounced on her toes, smacking a kiss to his stubbly cheek before looking back down at the holographic packaging. Heâd hoped he had gotten the right one when heâd seen a sale on them when on his way to the check out counter. It was worth the little bit of money to feel her lips for a moment. âThank you, H. Youâre the best, as usual.âÂ
âThe hell am I?â Niall scoffed, wiping his hands dry after washing them.Â
âYouâre great too, but he got me the face masks I like and they usually sell out. So heâs a bit higher up in points today.â She placated him, brushing past him to put them in the bathroom. âHarry, plate up the pizza, pretty please!â
As soon as she had disappeared, Niall shot him a look. âWhen are you two gonna make it official?â He whispered. âThe heat eyes bouncinâ off the both of you is sickening at this point. Sheâs turned you soft.âÂ
Harry settled with a glare, placing two slices on the paper plate and sliding it over to him. âEventually. Her whole life is shifting. Canât do shit right now without rattling her.â It was the first time he admitted or even hinted at having feelings for her besides point blank telling anyone who came around that she wasnât available. Y/N didnât know he did that though.Â
âThank fuck you donât still have your head up your arse. I was worried youâd never admit youâre gone for her.â He faked wiping sweat off his head making the other man roll his eyes. âSheâll be happy, H. You donât have to worry about her rejecting you. Just go on and do it. She talks about you like you hang the moon every night at this point even when you arenât around.âÂ
A weakness heâd spotted, Harry stood a bit straighter before leaning in. âShe does? What does she say?â Oh, he hated how desperate he sounded to hear the answer but the fluttering in his stomach made him insisting on finding out.Â
âOh, how thoughtful and kind and generous you are and how youâre the best person she knows, all of that. She stares at her phone and waits for texts from you when she comes out and youâre working, gets these huge smiles or giggles when you do. or tries to get everyone to move the party to your bar.âÂ
That last part, heâd hoped for. He liked the idea of her wanting to be physically close to him and suggesting everyone come and see him, but knowing she did the same thing he did when waiting for messages from him soothed a piece of him. He wasnât alone in it. It was hard sometimes for him to decipher her behavior considering she was genuinely so friendly with everyone and he didnât want to flatter himself and think it he was special⌠but apparently he was.Â
He didnât have a chance to answer when Y/N glided from the bathroom, finding her spot on the kitchen barstools. âWhat did I miss?âÂ
âNothinâ, Babe. Just chatting shit.â He murmured, sliding her a plate with her pizza of choice on it. âFigured weâd go to the grocery tomorrow, yeah? Itâs a bit sparse in here with the food.â He had the next day off and intended on spending it with her. Theyâd made lots of progress today and had 80% of the place unpacked, but he knew she liked those restocking videos online. âThink theyâve got those organizers back in stock.âÂ
âOh!â She gasped.âYes, you genius. Iâll need your help though, strong man. I like the one trip wonder.â It was a tease considering she knew Harry hated making multiple trips up with bags.Â
âLucky for you, youâve got a lift now and Iâve got that collapsible wagon.â Reaching out he gently flicked her nose for being a brat. âSo we wonât have tâworry about that.âÂ
â-----
Y/N was either very oblivious or a tease. Harry could never fully figure out which one.Â
He sat on her bed, messing with her telly when she emerged from the shower in her little cotton shorts and one of his shirts. It was one heâd just been looking for last week, actually, an old Iron Maiden one with a few holes in the collar area. Unmistakably his. The faded gray complimented her skin, looking extra cozy on her as her powder blue plush bunny slippers flopped against the ground and she made her way to her skincare desk.Â
âYou little thief.â He grumbled from the bed, leaning against her headboard. âI was searching everywhere for that last week.â Though he had narrowed eyes she would know he was only teasing.Â
âYou left it with me, remember? I ended up packing it so I wouldnât forget it but⌠Itâs super comfy.â She smiled guiltily at him, spinning in her chair. âIs it okay if I wear it? It still smells like your cologne and it helps me sleep sometimesâŚâ
Ah, a shot to the heart.Â
Y/N didnât know what it did to him to know he was an aid in good sleep. That it both made his heart stutter and his cock throb at the sight of her wrapped up in his clothing like she had all the rights to it. Like he was her boyfriend and she liked to wear it to remember him. Her scent had a similar effect on him, leaving it in his sheets when she stayed over, âTotally okay, lovely.â He smiled gently. âMâjust teasing you. Though it does wonders for my ego to know you like my cologne that much.âÂ
He knew he was making her a little flustered considering she didnât look right at him, but he thrived off of that. Knowing he made an impact on her like that made him feel just a bit more confident that she felt similarly to him. There was no answer from her, but he wasnât done with her quite yet. Standing up with a groan, he made his way over to her little makeup and skincare set up, placing his hands on the back of her chair. âWhat are you putting on your face?â He asked curiously, looking over her head to the products she had neatly organized.
âWell, first I wipe with one of these toning pads.â She opened the little tub, using a tiny pair of clear tongs to grab one. âYou donât want to be sticking your fingers in there and potentially making them all dirty so it came with this little thing. You give it a few passes over your t zone.â She showed him as she did it, Harry watching diligently in the mirror.Â
âMmm. Then what? Youâre always doinâ all of this fancy stuff to your face. Figure that's why your skin is so pretty.â He let his fingers fiddle with a few strands of hair.Â
âThank you.â She said sheepishly, picking up a smaller tube. âUm, I use this undereye cream to help with puffiness and brightening. Its soothing. I apply it with the smallest finger though, because while Iâm not afraid of wrinkles itâs the weakest fingers and the skin under your eyes is more delicate.âÂ
Huh. âDidnât know what.â He was actually learning something from this.Â
âMhm. Why do you think I tell you to go gentle when you use the makeup remover?â A smile tilted up one side of her lips a bit further, eyes focused on the mirror in front of her. She pretended not to notice the slight shiver he gave her when he leaned down, letting his face get more level with hers- but he did. He noticed anything he could. âA-And then I use some vitamin C stuff for brightening, a serum and a cream. I use the little fan to make it dry faster so it isnât sticky.â She pointed to the mini pink fan heâd always noticed. Heâd just assumed it was for when she got hot. âDo you⌠Would you like me to use some of it on you when Iâm done?âÂ
She sounded hesitant to ask which he understood. Not a lot of the guys in their friend circle would want that, but he wasnât that insecure about himself that heâd say no to someone pampering him. Especially not when it meant Y/N getting close to him. âSure, sweets. Iâd love that. Reckon my skin needs it.âÂ
âWhat do you usually do with it?â She asked curiously, meeting his eye in the mirror.Â
âMakeup remover, wash my face, that cream you left at my place if I remember.âÂ
âItâs not fair you have the skin you do.â She huffed, shaking her head. âCruel, actually.â It kind of was. He got long lashes too, which she always complained about. âGo and wash your face first, heathen.â
Harry let out a small laugh before going off to do that. Returning with a fresh face, he stood in his prior position, watching her finish up the routine before holding the fan closer to her face to finish it off. It was an interesting process he hadnât paid much mind to before, but then again, she didnât bring every single thing to his place either.Â
After putting her hair up in a claw clip, she stood up from the plushy chair and motioned for him to sit down. He did as asked, feeling her residual warmth as she lined up the products for them. âOkay, so we start with the toner pad.â She gently pushed him to lean back in the chair, her face coming closer to his as she delicately swiped it over his cheeks and nose. He was getting an up close look at her, noticing the scar near her eyebrow and a few spots on her face. It made him warm up a bit, being able to see her so close when she was awake. Usually this level of observation was reserved for when she was asleep. âOi, keep your head up.âÂ
âSorry.â He laughed, avoiding the impulse to move the chair back and forth. He liked to swing on it at times.Â
âWait- how about this.â Without giving it much thought, she gripped the chair and swung it over to turn his body to the side, helping herself to straddle his lap. âThis seems a little easier, no?â Fingers gently tipped his chin up, eyes focused on her motions.Â
Harryâs breath had disappeared. No longer available, he felt her sitting on top of his thighs, innocent as ever as she went through the motions. Tender with her movements and pressure, she was treating him like porcelain while giving him a little makeover. He should be focused on how nice the products felt on his skin, but his mind was elsewhere.Â
She smelled amazing, as usual, but having it this close up was a little hard for him. Yes, she sat on his lap before- but not in his shirt, with her thighs on display and tiny little shorts. She didnât straddle him before either, didnât let his mind wander to places it shouldnât. All his energy was focused on trying to ensure she didnât feel the stiffy that was quickly growing in his pants.Â
âI canât believe how good youâre being for me, H.â She whispered. âNo whining or anything.â Her smile was soft as she wiped the serum over his face. âYouâre so pretty.â
Fuck. He swallowed thickly, trying desperately to not let his cock construe those words into the filthy praise kink he had, but it appeared to be a bit too late for that. She had no idea what she was doing to him and he didnât want to be a perv, but god damn. If the girl continued, there would be no denying that heâd cream his damn pants. Being pet on, feeling her brush his hair off his forehead while she stroked his face and adjusted his position to where she wanted⌠He was only so strong. âThanks.â He murmured, trying to keep his composure.Â
âOf course.â She beamed, seeming pleased. âIâm surprised youâre letting me do this, but youâre full of surprises.â It seemed like she didnât know the battle he was facing internally, which was his goal, but that was soon to be ruined. âHold on a second.â Shifting slightly on his lap, she stood up momentarily before sliding further up. âSorry, I was falling down a bit-âÂ
Harry hadnât meant to, he really fucking didnât. But she sat right on top of him, squirming a bit. Giving his dick a bit of friction, making his hands grip her hips and sit her down hard to stop the movement. He couldnât open his eyes, couldnât face her as he heard the hitch in her breath. âFuck, Iâm sorry. Sorry, I didnât- I promise mânot being a creep or anything.â He winced. âJust been a while and uh-âÂ
âHey, itâs okay.â Her voice rang out, fingers brushing through his hair. âH, look at me. Iâm not mad.â Of course, her words were sweet and syrupy, going right to his dick yet again. Y/N had no fucking idea how much she effected him, how many times heâd thought about her in this positon and how guilty he felt that heâd turned a sweet moment into something like this. âCâmon. You donât need to be embarrassed.âÂ
He took a moment before opening his eyes, looking at her face. Studying it, making sure she wasnât uncomfortable. Her hand cupped the side of his face, a slight pout on her pretty lips. Y/N didnât seem upset about it, seeing as she sat still and could most definitely feel his cock under her. He could feel her cunt over him, hot through the fabric and he was doing everything in his power to be fucking normal.Â
âThere you are.â The tables had finally turned. Harry was the shy one in this moment and Y/N was the one seemingly not freaked out. âItâs a natural body function, H. I know youâre not some kind of perv. I sat on your lap, remember?â She soothed his nerves. âBesides, Iâm flattered. Was beginning to think you thought I was some kind of troll or something.â The smile kicked up on her face, but his frown deepened.
âThe fuck? Why would you think that?â Brows furrowed, he didnât like that she thought he didnât find her attractive. He called her pretty quite a bit.Â
âWell, Iâm not your type. You go for all those tattooed girls with the bad ass attitudes, which is cool cause I think theyâre hot too but⌠Iâm all soft and squishy, yâknow? I like the soft things, kinda the opposite of you so I just thought I wasnât someone youâd be attracted to. Mânothing like what you go for.â She didnât seem offended by this, rather stating it matter of fact- but Harry couldnât believe how wrong she was. He had to wonder how long she thought this.Â
While he was secretly pining after her, she was thinking he was going off to get blowies by the girls that flirted with him which, sometimes he did. At the beginning of their friendship, he tried to stave off those feelings for her by getting someone else underneath him, fucking away the frustration but he learned fairly quickly that none of it did much when his mind was on someone else. Itâd been months at this point. Sure, he liked a bit of flirting to boost his ego, but that was only when Y/N was preoccupied.Â
âWell, youâre wrong.â He said sternly. âYouâre the most beautiful thing Iâve ever seen. Dunno where the troll idea came in when mâalways staring at you.â He scoffed. âNo more of that bullshit. Wouldnât be hard if I didnât think you were stunning. Trust me.â In fact, she was the only thing that got him hard these days. Thinking of her mouth, her thighs, her tits, her ass, anything. Even her hands, for fucks sake. âDonât ever doubt how beautiful you are tâme. Pisses me off.â
âSorry.â She bleated, pouting back at him. âI didnât mean to. Itâs just.. You call me pretty but I never would have thought you meant it like that. I like that you let me cuddle you and stuff so obviously I know you arenât repulsed by me but, I dunno.â She swallowed, looking down at his bare chest. âIâm sorry for getting you⌠if youâre uncomfortable.âÂ
God, he was mucking this up wasnât he? He shook his head, letting his thumbs rub over her hips as he softened his face. âNo, sweets. Donât apologize. Sânot a big deal, Iâm not mad at you. Just donât like the idea of you thinking poorly of yourself. Youâre fucking stunning.â So stunning that his cock was still hard under her. âIâll go take care of it when weâre done, but no more squirming. Okay?â Squeezing her, he tried to rectify the situation. âNo more fussing.âÂ
âButâŚâ Y/Nâs lips twisted slightly, sliding her hands down to his shoulders. âThatâs not fair.âÂ
Harry blinked a few times, looking her over hesitantly. âWhat dâyou mean? Iâm okay, pet.âÂ
âWell, Itâs my fault that youâre like this.â She protested. âI can fix it, if you want. Havenât given too many blowies before, but I can take instruction pretty well.â
Harry truly thought he was dreaming for a moment, his face hot as she gave him an innocent look. Like she meant it, though it slightly embarrassed her for not having a lot of experience. But feeling her shift on him clued him back into reality. This was real. âYou- You donât have to do anything for me, Y/N.â He was holding on by a string. âYou didnât mean to do it. Itâs not your responsibility to get me off just because my cockâs got a mind of his own.â
Y/N huffed again, shaking her head. âI want to. Can I?â Her face shifted slightly. âYouâre not making me do anything. It would make me feel better If i could take care of you.â Her eyes met his. âI mean it. Promise.âÂ
And god, if Harry was a stronger man heâd lift her off his lap and insist on taking care of it himself. Heâd explain that it could make lines blurry and he liked her a bit more than a friend and theyâd have that talk. But he wasnât a stronger man, and she rolled her hips on him again with a hum, making his head fall back when she repeated the action. âFuck.â He whispered under his breath. âAs long as.. As long youâre sure. I donât want you to regret it or anything.âÂ
âI wonât.â She peeped. âI like making you feel good, Harry.â Her face seemed brighter as she watched him nod.
âGo on then, sweetheart.â He sighed. âIâll show you what I like.âÂ
Never in a million years had he expected her to be visibly excited, slipping off his lap and on to her knees in front of him. Fuck, fuck, fuck. Eyes looked up at him with curiosity, hands running over his thighs as she waited for direction. Heâd dreamt of this so many times, stroked off in the bathroom to this very mental image to get his load out quicker. His cock pulsed inside his sweats. This was really happening. âMânot wearing briefs under these.â He warned, pushing the waistband down as he slowly tugged himself out of the pants. His hand was slightly shaky ass he gave himself a squeeze at the base, a soft hiss leaving his teeth when her hand covered his own.Â
âIâve only done it a few times butâŚâ Her eyes widened. âYours is the prettiest Iâve seen.â
And fuck if that didnât get him going. Harry took pride in his dick, as a lot of men did, but to get that compliment was better than anything else. His hair was normally trimmed shorter, but it had been a while. It was groomed a bit at the base, his happy trail leading up his stomach. âThank you.â He mumbled, removing his hand and letting hers take over. Y/N was eager and that much was obvious, feeling her give him a few strokes as she shuffled closer in between his spread thighs. âI- I probably wonât last long. I wasnât lying, itâs been a while.â And heâd imagined her in this position so many times that he was programmed to get off to it quickly.Â
âThatâs okay. Youâre quite big so itâll be better for my jaw.â She giggled. Fucking giggled while her thumb rubbed over the slit, making him shudder. Heâd always imagined sheâd be much more shy in this situation, but again he was proven wrong. âWhat do you like?âÂ
Honestly? He could cum just like this. Her stroking him slow, looking up at him with that pretty little face. Splatter her pretty face with pearly strings leaking from the slit of his cock, let it drip down her cheeks and chin. But she wouldnât like that answer. âIâm okay with anything you give me, but I⌠I like to hear you.â He swallowed, a shaky exhale leaving his nose. âAnd uh, a bit wet. If thatâs something youâd like.âÂ
Y/N looked like she was taking note, nodding at his words. âI want to know what you like, mâokay with anything.â She smiled. âI knew you had to be big cause.. Yâknow youâve got the energy. And Iâve felt it a few times when we cuddle, before you wake up. Itâs just different to see it.â Y/N leaned her head on his thigh, continuing to jerk him off. âIâll probably choke a little bit, cause youâre the biggest Iâve taken. Itâs okay though, Iâll be fine. Iâll pinch your tummy or somthinâ if I need a second to breathe.âÂ
Who the fuck was she? Y/N had never, ever shown or hinted at being filthy in her life, but here she was. Talking about choking on his cock. He throbbed in her hand, making her eyebrows raise. âYou liked that. Noted.â Leaning forward, she kept eye contact with him as she dragged her pink tongue from the base up to the tip, letting it sit there for a moment before she pulled away, giving him a few more strokes. âYou can show me what you like too. Donât be shy about it, H. I want you to feel good.âÂ
Harry nearly lost it as he watched those gorgeous lips purse, spitting right over the tip. It slipped down his length before her hand caught it, stroking and spreading it over his cock. Filthy, filthy things filled his tongue immediately, but he tried to pace himself. âFuck meâŚâ He whispered, gently gathering her hair in his hand. âI didnât know you had this in you, gorgeous.â It nearly bowled him over. âCan you.. Take it in your mouth. Suck the tip for me. I want to see that.âÂ
Normally, he had no problem being a cocky, arrogant man. He was dominant most of the time with his hook ups- but Y/N wasnât just a hook up to him. She was special. He didnât want to do a single thing to potentially fuck this up. He wanted her to like this, to see how much he liked it too. She had no problems following instructions, the man watching as her lips stretched around the tip and dipped down a bit as she suckled on it. A soft hum left her mouth and vibrated over him as he curled the hair around his fist, making him groan. âYeah, jusâ like that, angel. Fuck.â He kept his eyes on her as she bobbed shallowly, taking moments to rub her tongue over his leaking slit. âYouâre so good, so sweet tâme. Canât believe youâre doinâ this.âÂ
Y/N pulled off the tip, lips wet as she peered up at him. âIâve thought about it before.â She whispered, lapping over the side of his length. âWanted to see your cock. I knew itâd be pretty.âÂ
What the fuck? Harryâs brian felt fried, completely caught off guard by this information. Sure, he had thought maybe once or twice she was teasing him but it wasnât often. Y/N was just so sugary sweet and kind, a slight air of innocence, and⌠Now she was telling him sheâd thought about sucking him off before. âYou have?âÂ
âMhm.â She stroked him a bit firmer, the slick sound of her hand around his wet cock getting louder. âI heard.. Heard rumors and felt left out. You like me the best but you never asked me to do anything.â Rubbing the tip over her pouted lips, Harry was shocked yet again.Â
âCause yâmean more to me than any of the other people.â He swallowed. âToo fuckinâ sweet. I like you the best, youâre right but.. Youâre my sweet girl. Didnât want tâuse you for anything like that. Would break my heart if I hurt you and youâd not want to see me again.âÂ
âWhat if I wanted you to use me?â She asked, peering up at him with those eyes. They drove him absolutely mad. âI know you wouldnât hurt me unless I asked, H. Youâre so good to me⌠I just want to be good for you too.â Taking the tip back into her mouth, she pushed herself down further and he felt his stomach clench. It took him off guard, feeling the hot mouth take him down and bob herself against him, a soft hum vibrating over him.Â
âOh- Fuck.â He let out a broken groan, leaning further back into the chair. âYou are, baby, you fucking are. Hot little mouth⌠shit.â She whimpered around his cock at his words, sucking a little harder as her hand stroked the rest of him. She liked that. âWhat is it, hm? Like when I call you baby? When I tell you how perfect you are?â His words got a bit darker. He was slipping into another headspace and Y/N seemed to be coaxing it on.Â
She did a half ass nod, not pulling off his length as she continued. Harry wouldnât have guessed in a million years that sheâd be a greedy girl like this, but he was incredibly thankful that she was. âYou are. Such a good girl, so gorgeous with your mouth stretched around my cock. Didnât know you were gagging for it, baby. Shouldâve told me.â He chuckled darkly. âWouldnât have wasted my loads in the shower before cominâ tâbed with you. Couldâve pushed into your needy mouth and let you swallow it down.âÂ
Y/N moaned around his prick, eyes watering slightly as she looked at him. Heâd never seen a better sight. âYouâre so beautiful, angel. So pretty. Didnât know such a filthy thing could have you lookinâ even more beautiful.â His throat felt thick as his cock throbbed in her mouth. âFuck, you donât even know how many times Iâve thought about it.â
Y/N pulled off, panting slightly as webs of saliva connected her mouth to his cock. âHow much?â Her voice was a little hoarse, but he could hear that she was desperate to know. âYou- You could have. I donât want you to waste it anymore.â There was the tiny bit of shyness coming back in. âIf umm, if you think Iâm good enough at this. Iâll do it.âÂ
âFuck me, baby.â His thumb wiped over her spit soaked lips, breaking the threads of spit as he caressed her cheek. âAll the fucking time. Sâthe only thing that gets me off.â Confessions he hadnât thought heâd be saying so soon, let alone before heâd ever kissed her, spilled from him. âYouâre doing amazing. More than good enough, too fucking good for me.â He couldnât believe she was offering. âYou sure you want tâbe the one to take care of it?â
âYes, I want it. I donât want anyone else to do it.â She pleaded. âIâll be the best for you. Just- you can tell me and Iâll suck you or, or anything you want.â Harry tested it, gently pushing her head back towards his prick- which she immediately took back in her mouth. The perfect, wet heat bringing him back to that filthy place in his head.Â
How could she think he could ever say no? Sheâd been his weakness since she brought him over that damn cupcake.Â
âOh, sweet girl. Anything?â He cooed. âDangerous thing to promise me. Donât want anyone else to do it either.â His breathing was getting harder, trying not to thrust his hips up into her mouth and make her take it all. Sure, sheâd probably do it, but he still felt the need to be delicate with her. âTake a little more for me, baby. Just like- there, there you go.â He praised, mouth falling open as she did exactly what he wanted. âGonna make me cum.âÂ
This felt a million times better than rubbing one out in her bathroom. His legs were near vibrating, the wet sound of her mouth taking him down and the clicks of her hand stroking his spit soaked cock filling her bedroom. This was the last thing heâd expected was her on her knees for him tonight and part of him wasnât convinced it wasnât a wet dream, but he was thanking whatever higher power that was up there that his sweet girl had a dirty side to her. One he wanted to be the only one privileged enough to see.Â
âIn my mouth.â She gasped, pulling up for a moment. âWant to taste you. Please?âÂ
How could he ever tell her no?Â
Pushing her back down on his cock, he let his hips rise up and shallowly thrust into her mouth as she moaned around him, drooling down her chin and letting him use her the way he needed to get off. The best part was knowing she was enjoying it so much. It was a miracle heâd lasted this long already, but he attributed that to shock. She was dirty, his sweet girl, choking slightly on his cock as the tip hit her throat, but she made no move to want to stop.Â
His last straw, though, was feeling her hand over his balls, whining around him as he let out his deepest groan yet. It was sloppy and messy and so fucking good that he felt lightheaded, tummy hot and legs weak as he felt himself approach his end. âFuck, jusâ like that, your fucking mouth is perfect⌠fuck, fuck, fuck, baby- Mâgonna cum, gonna cum, gonna-â His voice failed as his head fell back, lifting his hips as his cum began to pour into her mouth. Ribbon after ribbon coating her throat, pulling back a bit to get it on her tongue while she worked him through it.Â
He didnât realize he had so much in him, but perhaps it was just Y/N that made him cum this much. This hard. His ears rung a bit, curses leaving his mouth as he watched her mouth open and hand stroke him to see the pearly mess on her tongue. At the last little bit,he used his grip on her hair to tug her up to his face.Â
âCâmere, sweet girl. Share with me, donât be greedy.â holding her face while the other had her hair, he pulled back into his lap and her mouth to his and groaned as she licked over his tongue, sharing the remnants of his load with him. It was something a bit nasty and deprived, he knew, but Y/N merely moaned back, her clean hand curling around the back of his neck.Â
The kisses slowed from frantic and hot, to softer, slow and sweet. Pecking her lips over and over again, her whimpers melted into giggled as he untangled from her hair, sliding his hand under the shirt she had on to get some bare skin on his fingertips. âSweetest thing, most beautiful girl.â He murmured between kisses. âThank you. Best Iâve ever had.âÂ
âYouâre jusâ saying that.â She whispered, though the smile was difficult to wipe off her face. Obviously she liked praise just as much as him.Â
âNope. Mean every word.â He confirmed, rubbing his nose over her cheek. âThank you, baby. Felt so damn good, canât feel my legs now.â Harryâd never felt like this after a blowie, both in his legs and the fondness he felt for the girl. If there had been any doubts about his feelings for her whatsoever, they were shattered. He was so far gone for her, it was pathetic.Â
âGood.â She smiled, feeling the kiss to his cheek. âI need to finish your skincare, though. So tuck yourself back in, cause mâgonna do that and then brush my teeth again. Though.. I can tell youâve got a good diet. Tasted nice.âÂ
Though Harry knew cum never really tasted good, he was chuffed that she hadnât minded. Even more, that she hadnât minded indulging in sharing with him. âMânot selfish, I need to help you too.â He reminded, though she merely shook her head.Â
âIâll take a raincheck. Mâso tired now, and I want to enjoy it fully.â Pecking his cheek in return, she picked up the moisturizer. âThink you need a lip mask too. Thankfully, youâre in the right hands.âÂ
Harry was sometimes a selfish lover with hookups and he could admit that, but with Y/N he never wanted to be that way. He wanted to make her feel good, but he could wait. It only made him anticipate it more- there would be a next time.Â
âOkay, sweets.â He chuckled. âDo whatever youâd like.â

Raider POV of smut.
The dog has stuck around for more than 24 hours now. He's a good dog. Heâs working on a duck foot while you, Joel, and Carter eat by the fire. The evening air is cool but mild. The sky is clear.Â
Joel and his men spent most of the day working on the van and looking for parts. The dog sat with you while you read a book. You made a wildflower crown and put it around the dogâs neck. When one of the men walked in your direction on his way to the woods, the dog jumped in front of you and growled. Joel looked impressed.Â
-
Now the fire is keeping you toasty as the sky fades from blue to black.Â
âTommy!â you call out to the dog to see if he reacts.Â
Carter chokes on his food, but quickly recovers. His eyes are wide.
âWhatâd you say?â Joel asks, ominously quiet. When you donât respond, he reaches over to gently turn your head toward him. The look on his face makes your stomach turn.Â
âI thought youâd like that one since itâs a type of gun,â you explain.
âNo.â He shakes his head, âI don't like it.â He lets go of your face. âNaminâ the goddamn dog,â he grumbles under his breath. He puts down his plate and stands up.
Youâre afraid to ask, but when Joel silently walks off toward the woods, you look at Carter. He asks, âHe tell ya anything about his family? His brother?â
Your face is hot and your tummy feels dizzy. âHe said he didnât have any family.âÂ
Carter raises his eyebrows, then he's quiet for a moment and stares at the ground. His face becomes studious.Â
âWhat,â you ask.Â
âAin't my place,â Carter looks down apologetically. Â
A few seconds later, watching your face, Carter adds the obvious: âI wouldn't go there.â
"Yeah," you whisper. Anything about his family. The question weighs on you. You really don't know Joel, do you?Â
Carter changes the subject. âHeâll come around on the dog.â
You perk up. âYou think?âÂ
Carter nods, then adds, âSorry âbout Daisy,â squinting solemnly.Â
âThanks,â you nod, then canât resist asking, âJoel wasnât. . .married, was he?â
Carter shakes his head and doesnât elaborate. At least thereâs that. But still. His family.Â
You're unsettled, and you try to distract yourself with other dog names, mentally going through a list. Bullet. Clover. Duck. Joel doesnât have to know he has a name.Â
Apparently, Carter is thinking about the same thing. He tries to cheer you up. âGun names, huh? Pistol, Rifle--â
â--Rifle??â You crack a smile.Â
âHey, there's no bad ideas,â Carter laughs, and you giggle.Â
âWhat about Bulletââ
â--Shh,â Carter nods toward the tree line. Joel is on his way back.Â
As you finish eating, Carter tries to make small talk with Joel to break the tension. Joel doesn't say much. You ask Carter how he makes his jerky, and he walks you through it. It doesn't sound hard. You could probably do it yourself.Â
â--Carterâ--
The three of you are sitting outside by the fire after dinner. Youâre on Joelâs knee, and Joel slides his hand up your dress a little bit. Carter averts his eyes and watches the dog work on his duck foot, making happy little growls and wagging his tail. Hard to say whether you and Joel are about to go inside and fuck, or if Joelâs just copping a feel like he does twenty times a day.Â
You have Joel wrapped around your finger, and you donât even know it. You wouldnât know Joelâs never been like this before. You wouldnât know Joelâs never made a girl his in the years Carterâs known him. Joelâs always been a man of focus. Heâs always been a tough guy. Heâs always had a temper, but at this point, heâd tear a man to shreds just for looking at you wrong. Itâs scary, and itâs a lot of mess to clean up. Carterâs seen Joel do some crazy shit, but never as crazy as turning one of his own men into a scarecrow for an off-hand comment. Carter knows Joel better than anyone, and itâs clear to him that Joel is crazy about you.
The dog drops the duck foot, growls and barks, then takes off and runs toward the back of the trailer. You get off Joelâs knee to go after the dog, and Joelâs arm around your middle stops you. As Carter stands up and puts on his rifle, a high-pitched shriek comes from behind the trailer. Joel grabs his rifle off the log, and Carter says, âitâs cool,â holding his hand out. He wonât hesitate to yell if he needs Joel. âGo inside, sweet pea,â Joel tells you. You take your time going.Â
Carter goes around the back of the trailer and trains his rifle on two figures cresting the hill. The dog has stopped short of them and is keeping his distance, but heâs still barking and looks ready to pounce, like heâs holding himself back.Â
âDONâT MOVE,â Carter booms, then keeps his rifle fixed on the pair and slowly approaches them. When Carter reaches the dog, the dogâs barking fades into a low growl.Â
They drop their backpacks and put their hands up.Â
âWhatâre ya doinâ here?â Carter asks.Â
The woman clears her throat and follows it with a demure smile. âWent huntinâ, came back ân our house was taken.âÂ
Carter nods and looks back and forth between the two of them. Theyâre both decent looking. Some resemblance, maybe siblings.Â
âWhat do yâall want,â Carter asks, then spits over his shoulder.Â
âNothinâ,â the man claims. âJust cuttinâ through on our way to the road.â His eyes pan down Carterâs shoulders and arms. Carter squares his shoulders and adjusts his grip on the gun.Â
Carter nods hesitantly. âCan ya hang tight for me? Donât want ya walkinâ into gunfire.âÂ
They nod in agreement with a hint of fear. They shouldnât be trouble. They arenât carrying much.Â
Carter walks backwards for a few slow steps, then nods and turns around toward the trailer. Carter sees you spying in the kitchen window and gives you a reassuring nod as he goes around the trailer to talk to Joel.Â
-
"They're alright, I think," Carter tells Joel.Â
"What do they want," Joel grumbles.
"Nothin'. . . Cuttin' through on their way to the road."
Joel nods.Â
âLost their house, didnât say who took it.âÂ
Joelâs brow furrows and he nods. âArmed?âÂ
âNot heavily,â Carter answers.Â
âBringâem around. Letâs find out who took their house.â
âYou got it,â Carter says.Â
â---- đ¸you đ¸ â---
You move to the window facing the yard and the fire pit with logs around it. As they walk around the trailer, you overhear that theyâve been traveling most of the day. When they stop by the fire, you wait a few minutes, thinking theyâll leave. Then they take a seat, and the woman sits on the log next to Joelâs, on the end of the log closest to him. Your chest tightens. When she smiles at him, you scoff out loud to yourself. You start to go out the front door, then stop and go to the bathroom. You look in the mirror and open the flannel. You run your finger over the faint, healed letters on your skin, and you leave your chest exposed. You adjust your thigh holster, then go outside.Â
When the door opens, Carter looks over his shoulder and announces, âThere she is.â
Joel introduces you. âThis is, uh. . .âÂ
âJill,â she pipes in.Â
âRon,â the man nods at you.Â
A couple. They must be a couple. They look a little alike, but not enough to be siblings. Joel leans forward with his elbows braced on his knees, hands clasped, connecting with your eyes for a moment, sharing something near a smile before his eyes fade back to serious.Â
Joel doesnât make room for you in his lap, but he doesnât tell you to go back inside either. He looks alert and on guard. There are four logs and five of you. You sit on Joelâs log and feel satisfied when he doesnât scoot toward Jill to make more room. He doesnât mind you being right up against him. Carterâs on the log to your left. Jill talks about their house and what was going on when they got back from their hunting trip. Ron is quieter. He glances at Carter a few times. Jill keeps looking at Joel. She talks too much.
Jill says they saw Infected behind the trailer park. Joel and Carter look at each other. Your stomach twists, but you study her face, and you donât trust her. Attention. She wants attention. She wants Joelâs attention. Joel is better than Ron â bigger, stronger, better looking. There were no Infected. Sheâs making it up for attention.Â
Everyone is quiet for what feels like a full minute. You look her dead in the eye and break the silence with a soft, matter-of-fact, âNo you didnât.â Joel gives you a cautionary look, and you add, âWe wouldâve seen'em. We were there yesterday.âÂ
Jill raises her eyebrows, bemused. âJust one,â she admits with a little smile. âMy brother took care of it.â She nods to Ron, and the fact that theyâre siblings makes you hate her. Â
âWhere,â Joel asks flatly. You wish he wouldnât speak to her at all.Â
âWoods behind the junkyard,â she answers. âThought yaâd wanna know,â she shrugs. Itâs quiet again. Nothing but the fire crackling and the dog growling happily.Â
âThanks,â Carter mumbles.Â
Jillâs gaze lingers on Joel. She seems pleased with herself. Joel looks away, sits back, and crosses his arms. Now sheâs checking out his arms as they bulge out with his hands under them. Your heart races. Anger simmers under your ribs.Â
"Bet ya could handle anything that comes over that hill," she purrs at Joel. Your nostrils flare. Your eyes are glued to her. You donât blink. She looks at Joelâs pants and wets her lips. Your heart skips a beat. It feels like a personal attack. You pop up from the log.Â
Joel makes room in his lap and looks at you as he replies, "Carter here could handle'em, too,â with a nod to his left.Â
Joel must have expected you to sit on his knee like you were before they showed up. He clears his throat as it becomes clear youâre going to fully straddle him. His nose twitches and his eyes sparkle. He puts his arms around you loosely. His hands rest on your back to help you balance. You scoot closer and he helps you settle in so your crotch rests on his. Your head is in the crook of his neck, facing toward Jill to keep an eye on her. It doesnât take long for a familiar bulge to twitch under you. Â
Your arms are around Joel. Your hand runs over the handgun in the back of his pants, and he tenses.Â
Jill has the nerve to speak again. âThat canât be comfortable,â she laughs.
âYou canât be serious,â you snap back.Â
âShhhh,â Joel whispers into your hair. ââSâokay, baby.â Â
âIâm comfortable,â you tell Joel.
âI know, sweet pea.â He nuzzles his nose at the top of your ear. ââsâokay, baby,â he whispers. You rock your hips into him, feeling him grow harder. He pulls you tight, adjusting your weight. He moves one hand to your thigh. You grind yourself into him and he lets out a little âmm.âÂ
âUm, okay,â she mumbles in disgust.Â
You snarl and turn your head away from her, back toward Joel. Then you turn your head toward Carter. Carter is absentmindedly examining the bite on his hand. Ron is spaced out, watching Carterâs face. Then, his eyes fall down to Carterâs lap.Â
âYouâre bit,â Jill announces. âRon, heâs bit!âÂ
Ron snaps out of his daze, sits up self-consciously, and when his eyes fall on Carterâs hand, his face hardens.
Carter protests, âItâs notââÂ
â--It was the dog,â your head snaps back toward Jill. âIt doesnât look anything like Infected.â She just wants attention. She wants drama.Â
âIt was the dog,â Joel repeats, unamused. It sounds like a warning. Joelâs hand on your thigh nudges the gun loose from your holster. Your hand wraps around the handle of the gun in the back of Joelâs pants.Â
âLemme see it,â Ron demands. He stands up and points his gun at Carter. He snarls with a look of disgust. His face has completely transformed since a moment ago.
âSIT DOWN,â Joel booms and grabs the gun out of your holster.Â
Carter starts to offer, âIâll show-â
âNo ya wonât,â Joel snaps as he stands up with you still wrapped around him. Joel points the gun at Ron. âCome into my yard, orderinâ us around?â Joelâs deep voice vibrates in your ear, then he whispers, âGo inside,â as he tries to let you down. You take the gun out of the back of his pants. âInside, now.â You put your feet on the ground.Â
âNobody owns this land,â Ron laughs.Â
âCâmon, man, yâall know how it works,â Carter seems to try to de-escalate. âShow some respect.âÂ
You slowly, carefully recede into the shadows, but you donât go inside. Â
Jill points her gun at Carter and demands, âShow us.â With everyone elseâs eyes fixed tensely on each other, you can approach her from behind, undetected. Two guns are pointed at Carter and one at Ron. Carter reaches for his rifle, and Ron braces his own gun with both hands. Ron cocks the hammer, and you quietly approach Jill from behind.Â
Ron adjusts his finger on the trigger, and Joel shoots him in the head. Jill screams.Â
It all happens in an instant: You lunge forward, tackling her to the ground, making her drop her gun. You could shoot her in the head, but something makes you toss your gun aside. You can't stop yourself from putting your hands around her throat. She claws at your chest and breasts. She slaps you, and it stings. You elbow her in the face, keeping one hand on her neck. She keeps clawing at you. âStupid whore,â she spits.Â
âI'm only his,â you snap back. She laughs. âAnd heâs mine,â you pant and put your palm over her face, covering as much of it as you can, putting all your weight on her. Before she can bite you, Joelâs massive hands are firm around your arms, pulling you off. You resist, and he wraps an arm around your middle.Â
ââSâokay,â he repeats as he pulls you off, and lifts you into standing. âGo inside.â
You hesitate and he firmly adds, âNow. I'll handle this.â He gives you a look that says he means it. Then he turns his attention to Jill. She coughs as you walk away. She whimpers and plays up how injured she is. Pathetic.Â
âHey,â Joelâs voice softens for her. âYouâll be alright,â he tells her. You glance back and heâs what? Heâs straddling her. He has his hands on her face. Is he . . .stroking her hair? You canât see well enough. Your chest burns, and you start to turn around completely, wanting to approach them. Â
But Carter whispers, âCâmon, letâs go,â and gently takes your elbow.Â
Maybe itâs for the best. You walk with Carter in a daze. Maybe you were seeing things. No, Joel is comforting her. Your Joel is straddling and comforting the woman who just slapped you and called you a whore.Â
âIt's okay,â Joel reassures Jill again, then you hear the loud crack of her neck snapping.Â
You feel a lot of things. Joy, relief, guiltânot for being happy, but for doubting Joel.Â
Carter opens the trailer door and you go inside.Â
-
For a few minutes, you just sit at the table. Your relief at Jillâs demise quickly fades when you realize she died thinking Joel liked her. Joel acting sweet with her even for a few seconds was more than she deserved.Â
Now you can't calm down. All your muscles are tense. You start to cry, then you go to get a glass of water. Your hand is shaking and you can hardly hold the glass. You want to throw it, but you put it down, still empty, on the counter. You take a deep breath, bury your mouth in your shoulder, then scream as loud as you can, until you're out of air and your throat is sore. You cough and spit over the sink, nauseous from the effort. Then you slump down onto the kitchen floor in tears.Â
Almost as soon as you hit the floor, the front door opens. It's not Joel, it's Carter.Â
âWhat happened?â Carter rushes over to you.
âWhere's Joel?â
âHaulinâ a body.âÂ
âWhich body? Don't let him touch her!â
He looks at you, stunned for a second, then says, âNot hers.âÂ
âYou promise?â you try to choke back tears.Â
âGod damn, you're both losinâ it,â Carter mutters to himself. Then he hesitantly reaches for your shoulder. âShhh, it's okay.âÂ
You lunge toward him on your knees and let yourself fall onto his chest. He looks over his shoulder then hesitantly hugs you. âOkay,â he whispers with his hands very lightly touching your back but not resting their full weight. He gives you a moment, then clears his throat. âI've gotta. . . â He lets go, stands up, and fills the glass of water. âHere.â He puts it on the table, then comes back to you.Â
âBeen a long day, huh?â Carter asks. He squats down and takes your elbow in his hand. âCâmon.â You wipe your eyes on your flannel and stand up. He guides you to the table with his hand on your back and pulls out a chair for you. He leaves you at the table with your water.Â
â--
You sit there for a minute, sipping your water. Then go to the bathroom to splash your face. You stop crying. You fix your hair. But your eyes are still misty. You look at your chest in the mirror. She scratched you. You can see a couple of her scratch marks better than Joelâs name. Your chest heats up as you stare at it, and your heart beats faster. You take calming breaths. You want her to go away. You donât want anyone on your skin but Joel. You dab your chest with a cold washcloth. The worst scratch is right over the âJâ. Â
You open the medicine cabinet, donât find anything useful, and close it. You go to the kitchen and find a pocket knife in one of the drawers. You bring it back to the bathroom and open the sharpest blade. What if you just. . .if you make the âJâ a little better, maybe. Itâs like she goes away. How should you do it? You look down at yourself. You canât really see. You look in the mirror and bring the knife to your chest. The hand-eye coordination is hard in the mirror.
Youâre looking in the mirror, holding the pocket knife in your hand, when the front door opens and slams shut. Joelâs boots thud, then stop. He says your name. âYou okay?âÂ
You sniffle. He approaches the bathroom door. It's not shut. You move toward the door to shut it, but you're too late. Joel stops it from closing. He's so much stronger than you, he pushes it open with ease, then his arms wrap you in a hug and the force of it walks you backward toward the sink.Â
You still have the knife open in your hand. As his arms tighten, you whisper, âCareful,â and hold your hand away.Â
He pulls away, looks you over, and looks at your hand. âHell are ya doinâ,â he mutters.Â
You turn back toward the mirror and stroke the âJâ. âMaking it better?âÂ
âMakinâ it. . .âÂ
Your eyes water again as you face the mirror fully. Joel turns toward the mirror, too, standing behind you. You run your fingers over your chest with one hand and hold the knife with the other.Â
Joel's face changes when he realizes what you're doing. He grabs your wrist so hard you reflexively drop the knife and it clatters into the sink. âNo.â
He picks it up, closes it, and puts it behind the faucet. He looks at your face in the mirror. âCan't let ya do that.âÂ
âYou said people canât see it.â
âTold ya weâd figure somethinâ else out.â
âLike what?âÂ
Joel runs his hand over your chest, and his thumb lingers on the scratch over the J. His nostrils flare, his head tilts down, and his eyes darken under his brow. âThis from her?â
You nod.
Joel sighs and steps over to the bathtub. He starts a shower. He takes his shirt off over his back. You back away toward the door, and start to give him some space.
âWhoa, nuh-uhâ Joel stops you. âDid I say leave?âÂ
âSorry.â
âTake your clothes off.â He sits on the toilet to untie his boots, then slips out of them and takes off his socks.Â
âYa know, ya came out there. Got her all worked up,â he grumbles. What? Thatâs not fair.
âI just wanted you.â
âYou were starinâ right at her, sweet pea.â
âI just wanted to be on you, wanted to touch you,â you insist.Â
âShe wanted her grubby hands on you.â
âYou think that's what she wanted?â
âAnd she got it, didn't she?â Joel asks rhetorically, eyes fixed on your chest again. He clenches his jaw at the sight of her touch. He nods toward the shower. âThatâs yours.â
âCan I have a bath?â You know itâs a long shot. Heâs not in the mood to wait for water to boil.Â
âFire's out and weâre outta gas. Gonna be cold either way.â Â
You brace yourself for the water. Joel remains seated on the closed toilet and holds your hand to help you balance as you step into the tub. You're far enough back that the water only hits from your abdomen down. It's not quite as bad as you expect, but gives you a chill all over. He scans your body as it prickles in goosebumps and your nipples pebble. He reaches behind you for the soap, then lathers a washcloth. He starts with your chest. The scrape stings.Â
âShe wanted you, not me,â you mutter, wincing at the echo of your own words under the light beating of the water. Joel slows down and you continue, âShe was looking at you, not me.â He stops the washcloth on your clavicle. Lather pours between your breasts and trickles down your sternum.Â
Joel squints at you, looks from your mouth to your tits, swallows, and refocuses on the task, adjusting the washcloth in his hand.Â
âDonât gotta worry âbout that, sweet pea,â he murmurs and begins to slide the cloth slowly across your skin.Â
Itâs nice to hear, but itâs not enough. Your eyes feel weak. âWell, I do worry about it,â you croak and feel the tears coming back.Â
He adjusts himself, then sighs. âYou always cry in the shower?âÂ
The coldness stings.
âAre you mad at me,â you ask shakily.
Joel curses himself under his breath. His brow furrows at your breasts and he braces his wet hand on his knee. âNo, baby.â His eyes rise to meet yours, and he cups your cheek. âNo. . .Just tired. . .â He searches your face. âToo many bodies in those woods. Gettinâ old.â You sniffle. You start mentally going through the bodies, and your head hurts at the thought. Joel says, âand ya canât get in my shot like that, sweet pea.â You relax a little more. Your tears wane at the thought that he was already planning to kill her.Â
Joel stands up, hands you the washcloth, and starts to undo his jeans. You watch his pants come down over his crotch, a sight that always makes your breath hitch. âFace the water,â he mumbles, and you obey, staying far enough back not to get your head wet. He braces his hand on the far wall of the shower and steps in, squeezing between you and the back of the tub. You inch forward to make room. His feet are spread around yours and his hands rest on your hips for a moment. He presses his lips into the crown of your head, then reaches around your front to take the washcloth from you.Â
Joel presses himself up against your back, then continues to wash your chest. He soaps up your breasts again, then cradles one with his bare hand as he washes your trunk. You look down and watch the suds slide down your body. He washes your hips, your thighs. Youâre grateful for the warmth of his groin against you. He turns you to the side and washes your sides, under your arms, your back, your ass, your legs. Then he tells you to rinse off while he washes himself. He steps all the way under the cold water without so much as flinching. When heâs finished, he rinses off, turns off the water, and wraps you in a hug. The water rolls off your skin and the faucet drips as you stand there in his arms.
After a few minutes, Joelâs deep voice slices through the silence. âCarter's stayinâ tonight. Wait here.â This unsettles you because you imagine Joel must be worried about something to have Carter stay. Did he believe her about the Infected?
Joel wraps a towel around himself and leaves you in the bathroom with your own towel. You look in the mirror for a moment, then quickly avert your eyes from your reflection. Â
Joel returns with clothes for you. Heâs in plaid pj pants and a white t-shirt. Both are too small on him. His pockets are puckered. You smile at the sliver of skin between his pants and shirt, and he asks, âWhat?âÂ
You shrug. âYouâre wearing pjs.âÂ
âYeah? Well I ain't wearinâem long,â he murmurs and you feel a twitch of need. âYou're gonna finish what ya started out there.â He looks at you darkly. âGot it?â
You bite your lip and nod as desire throbs between your legs.Â
âThat means I ain't doinâ it, you are.âÂ
Your chest flutters with butterflies.Â
He rests a flannel on his shoulder, while he holds up your nightie for you. You lift your arms and he puts it over your head. He pulls it down and pats your butt. âWant it that bad. . .â He holds the flannel up for you and you stick your arms in. He brings his mouth to your ear. âGonna show me how bad.âÂ
The front door opens and shuts.Â
âAll good?â Joel yells.Â
âAll good,â Carter answers, then exaggerates a loud yawn.Â
âBlankets in the closet,â Joel yells.Â
Joel brushes his teeth and leaves you to get ready for bed.Â
-
Joel returns just as you're finishing up. He shoves his hand in the puckered pocket of the pj pants and pulls out something brown and strappy that looks small in his hands. It looks like a piece of your holster, but thinner, more delicate. His brow furrows at it and he swallows. He sits on the closed toilet seat again.Â
âWhat is it?â you ask.Â
âIt's. . .â He looks at your chest. âC'mere.â You step forward. He holds the object against his thigh and with his other hand, he traces the letters on your chest. âIt's better than tryinâ to . . .â he trails off. He looks at your face, then back to your chest and caresses it again. âBetter than this.â Your heart swells. He doesnât want to hurt you. He doesnât want you to hurt you.Â
He looks at the object in his lap.Â
âIt's for me?â
He nods. He takes a deep breath and fiddles with the belt-like closure. âCan wear a sweater or whatever, and still. . .âÂ
âLemme try it on.â
He searches your eyes. âReally want to?âÂ
You nod.
He stands up and guides you to the sink. He stands behind you as you both look in the mirror. He wraps it around your throat. Your breath hitches when you see his name in careful, bold lettering, clear but imperfect. Itâs an odd sensation, having something around your neck, but the back of it is soft against your skin. Itâs smoother and more delicate than the holster is on your thigh.Â
âIt's beautiful,â you tell him as he concentrates on putting it on you. Â
He's gentle and careful. He fastens it with enough room to breathe and swallow. You look at it in the mirror, and the fact that he made it makes you emotional. âYou made it,â you whisper.
He nods. âDon't gotta wear it all the time, but-â
âI love it.âÂ
âYeah?â he turns you around with his hands on your hips, and his gaze devours your form from head to toe. âWell, God damn. . .Looks good on ya, too.âÂ
You wrap your arms around him and he hugs you close. He leans back to see you wearing the choker. âLet's go to bed.â
â-â--
You take off the flannel and get in bed. You bury your head in your pillow. Joel wraps you in his legs and arms, muscles straining his pajamas as he holds you in the dim room. His big, warm hand strokes your back. His body is like a furnace. You take deep breaths. In his bed, in his arms, you finally feel like you can breathe. His arms feel like home in a way that nearly overwhelms you. These are the arms that took you. They hurt you and pushed you away. Would they still? These arms hold you and care for you. They comfort you and kill for you. You hope they never let go.Â
It doesn't feel like you were ever really home before him, and it's impossible to imagine an after. There is no after. You're his. In the cruel, awful world, he carved out this space just for you. He kisses your forehead. You pinch your eyes shut and a tear runs down your cheek. It's a tear of relief. You press your cheek into his white t-shirt and his warm package twitches against you. He pushes his hips into you only slightly, and keeps holding you. You focus on his breathing and the beat of his heart.Â
You wedge your hand between your bodies. Your knuckles slide down your abdomen, and your palm skims his tummy on its way to his pants. You cradle the warm bulge in his flannel. You press your palm into it and he grunts softly as he presses his hips forward. Then he wraps an arm over you. He rolls onto his back, taking you with him. You're on top of him, and your heart flutters as his words from the bathroom echo. That means youâre doin' it.Â
-
You come to your knees, and he watches you curiously as you straddle him. You lower yourself so your panties meet his flannel, and the warmth of his bulge sends a shock to your chest. You lightly grind against him and watch his chest rise and fall as his cock swells against your neediest place. His hips lift and his eyes gloss over as he watches you move on him. You must be a vision â swollen, misty eyes, scratched up chest â but the look on his face says youâre the prettiest thing heâs ever seen.Â
That means you're doinâ it. Â
You scoot back so youâre straddling his thighs. You bring your hand just above his waistband, and your thumb traces his happy trail up under his t-shirt to his belly button, bringing the shirt up with you. You use both hands to push it up and he asks, âWant this off?âÂ
âIt's okay,â you shake your head. âJust like to see this. You slide your hand down his stomach, once again running your thumb through the hair leading to his groin. You run your hand slowly up and down it a few times and feel his muscles tense under the light padding of his tummy. The bulge in his pants becomes more of a tent. His tummy flexes as he rises up enough to take the shirt off anyway.
âWhat else ya like?â He asks. By now, he knows. Oh God, does he know. But he must want to hear it. He must want to see it, feel it. He wets his bottom lip. You back up down his legs and take his flannel pants down. His cock bounces free, and for a moment, you dismount him entirely. Once the pjs are down below his knees, he kicks them off the rest of the way as you take off your underwear. He sucks in air through his nose as he watches you. He's still, and heâs quiet, but the look on his face is more pain than patience.Â
You straddle his legs, bend at the hips, and rest your elbows on either side of his hips. You take his cock in one hand, then bring your lips to the head. He's still not at full mast. Not for him. For another man, this might be as hard as it gets, but not Joel. You suck the tip into your mouth. A masochistic part of you imagines how many women might have sucked this cock. You have, too, of course. But you want to outdo them all. You suck as much of it into your mouth as you can, and he sucks in a shaky breath as you furrow your brows and close your eyes. You suck from the back of your mouth, and your throat gurgles obscenely as his tip nudges it, then you gag. His hand rests gently on the side of your head. âYouâre okay.âÂ
You lock eyes with him as you slowly let his shaft out of your mouth. A string connects your lips to his tip until you wipe your mouth with the back of your wrist. You hold his shaft in a loose fist, thumbing his dorsal vein as you turn your attention to his balls. You cup his balls, then lick a stripe up the seam of his sack, and his hand grips the fitted sheet. When you look up at him, he releases the sheet. Your tongue circles his left nut and he closes his eyes. You have your free hand braced on his upper thigh, near where it meets his torso, and you can practically feel the blood rushing to his cock. His eyes meet yours again, and his brows are furrowed.Â
âCan I have them in my mouth,â you ask and he nods encouragingly.Â
You take one into your mouth and circle your tongue around it. You let it rest on your tongue then give it a gentle suck and he breathes, âoh God damn.â Itâs fuzzy and soft and feels nice in your mouth.
You pinch your eyes shut and sigh, âMm,â with your mouth full. You move to the other one, careful and gentle. âOhh,â he moans a little louder than you expect, and you pause.Â
You look toward the bedroom door nervously, and take your mouth off. Youâre about to remind him about Carter, but he cuts you off, âShhh,â before you can.Â
You lick all around his balls again, and his cock throbs angrily in your hand. You suck a ball into your mouth. You want both, but thereâs no way you can do it without scraping him with your teeth, so you donât.Â
Instead, you return your lips to his tip and feel yourself throbbing as you suck his shaft into your mouth. When you look up, heâs shaking his head no. Â
âThis aint what ya wanted, baby.â
âIs it good?â you ask.Â
âYeah. It's good, sweet pea. . .The best.â His thumb brushes your temple. He moves his fingers to tilt your chin up to look at him. âBut this ain't what ya want *really* want.â
âWanna make you feel good.â
âYeah? You were bouncinâ on my cock out there, just to make me feel good?â
You twitch and swallow and your chest flutters with desire. Â
âWhatâd I tell ya in the bathroom?â
âI'm gonna finish what I startedâ
âThatâs right,â he nods.Â
His cock is raging hard. Youâre throbbing and gushing for it. You give the tip of it one last kiss, then get up on your knees and take your time positioning yourself over it. You press his tip against your most sensitive place for a moment and let out a whimper. The contact makes you ache for him.Â
â
Joel cradles the backs of your thighs as you hold his cock. You look down as you move forward just a little more, then nestle his cockhead at your dripping hole, the very tip of it prodding just barely inside. Youâre more than wet enough. You brace your hands on his tummy, near the bottom of his ribs. Then, you begin to sink down with a whimper, letting his cock spread you open. He growls, âGod damn.â You're biting your lip, with his big cock stretching you already.Â
He nods, âgo on, you can do it.â You lift yourself up and bend slightly forward, tilting your hips. He sucks in air through his teeth. He grabs your hips, and you groan as he pulls you down. âFuck,â he breathes heavily. He loosens his hands on your hips, then moves them to your thighs. You sit still on his cock with your body angled slightly forward, your clit pressing into his pubic hair. You savor the fullness and the way your body makes space for him.Â
You brace your hands on his chest and begin to move yourself. âGood girl,â he whispers with a gentle thrust of his hips. You whimper as his length nudges deep inside, and his hips lift you.Â
You lift your ass and let most of his length out, before swallowing it up again and moaning with the delicious stretch. You slowly move yourself, and when you whimper, you feel his nipples harden under your hands. You palm his pecs as you ride his cock. His chest rises with deep breaths as you fuck him. His eyes keep drifting to his name wrapped around your neck.
You try to be quiet, biting your lip, but you still let out little moans, you can't help it. So does he. âOhhh, babyâohh.â His sounds are desperate, from deep in his chest.Â
âYa do it good,â he whispers. He cradles your ass in his massive hands and begins to move you on him, a little faster than you were going. He watches your breasts move under your nightie. He lifts up the hem of your nightie to watch your cunt swallow his length, and he groans softly. You pause and take it off, then start moving again.Â
âGood girl,â he murmurs, then his hands return to your ass, gently guiding your rhythm. He clenches his jaw, and you can tell he's trying not to take over entirely.Â
âCâmere a minute,â he murmurs.Â
His tummy pudges and wrinkles over his flexing abs, and his fingers dig into your ass cheeks as he sits up. He wraps his arms around you and turns to face the edge of the bed with his legs hanging off. âHang on,â he murmurs. âHang on, baby.â He holds your back with one arm, stands up slightly, and pulls at one of your thighs. You adjust your position so youâre seated instead of kneeling and your bent legs wrap loosely around him. Without the leverage of your knees on the bed, itâs up to him.
You have your arms around his neck and your face against his cheek. Your lips pull like a magnet to the skin just below the dark, curly hair on his head. You plant a kiss on his neck and suck lightly. He exhales vocally. He hugs you into him and moves you up and down. Heâs doing it all now. You both sigh and moan as his cock fills you up.Â
Then, he loosens his arms and slides his hands to your shoulder blades. He hooks his thumbs under your arms and breathes, âLemme see ya for a minute.âÂ
You hesitantly let him pull you away from his body, missing the heat of his chest against yours.Â
âAin't gonna drop ya, sweet pea.âÂ
You relax some of your weight into his hands, and he brings you all the way down so you're lying face up with your lower back on his lap. His hands under your arms hold you steady as he thrusts into you, like your body is a warm, wet sleeve for him. You let your head fall back in pleasure. He grunts as he moves you, and you look again to see him snarl. He looks down and watches his cock disappear again and again.
âGod damn you feel good,â he whispers. His eyes roam from your eyes to your lips, to your choker, to your tits. He watches where your bodies are joined as he keeps thrusting into you, making you feel like no one ever has. Then his eyes drift up your body again. He slows down. His hands tighten, and he grunts as he brings your body upright again. Your breasts meet his chest. Your arms wrap around his neck again as he hugs you. Your cheek rests against his jaw, and his scuff scratches you pleasantly. âAlways so good,â he breathes, moving you on his cock. His breath is warm against your ear. âOhh baby,â he sighs.Â
He tilts his chin to look up at the ceiling, and you latch onto his neck. He braces a hand on the bed and his hips lift under yours as you grind your body into his. âYeah,â he sighs. âOh, God, baby. You'reâyouâre so good for me,â he pants, barely above a whisper. âOhhhâso good, sweet pea.âÂ
You release his neck with a whimper. He cradles your head with one hand, and his cheek returns to yours.Â
As you ride him, his head slowly drifts back, so his breath is on your cheek instead of your ear. Your lips are dangerously close, and Joel doesn't pull away. Your mouths get closer while your bodies move as one. Soon, the corners of your lips are touching. You breathe and moan against each other's mouths. Your lips tingle at the closeness, and all you want is his mouth on yours. It feels so close. The sides of your mouths move against each other. Itâs enough, just feeling his lips. You want more, but itâs enough, for now. He pulls his head back, and your heart barely has time to sink before he leans his forehead against yours and cradles the back of your head. Your mouths loosely connect, with his lower lip hitching on your upper lip every time you slide down his cock. You breathe each otherâs breath. Your noses touch. His bottom lip tenses, and his mouth follows yours, not letting your lips slip away. You moan softly against his mouth, pinching your eyes shut, resisting the urge, resisting it. Â
Then, Joel presses his open lips against yours. His lips drag lightly, clockwise, then they truly embrace you. As your mouths seal together, you half-moan, half-whine, âMmm.â His lips are strong and desperate, pulling on yours like a hug. You can feel him taking your air and your spit. He sucks it right out of you, replacing it with an even more desperate need for him. Youâre having him, youâre having all of him, but you can never have enough. Arousal floods your body. It gathers deep in your gut and bubbles up to your chest. You take a deep breath through your nose as his tongue slowly thrusts into your mouth and finds yours. His cock is in your tight, wet cunt, and his tongue is in your soft little mouth. You throb and twitch on his cock, and you're nearly overcome. Your whole body simmers. He wraps his arm tighter around you, and your tits smush against him as he kisses you hungrily, and you kiss back. Itâs real, itâs reallyâitâs real. His hand slides down to grip the back of your neck as your mouths move together, drawing each other in, deeper and deeper, like you need it to live. Â
âMmmm,â you whine at your imminent peak.Â
âMm,â he grunts into your mouth as you twitch again on his cock. His tongue slides against yours, and the tension boils over violently, erupting from your core out to every inch of your body. Your walls clench, and you don't want to let go of his mouth, but your body jerks. Your lips begin to break away with a moan as you spasm on his cock. He holds you there by your neck. Your mouths stay half connected, and you breathe and moan against each other. Time freezes and waves of pleasure ripple through your core. Then, Joelâs thick cock twitches in the embrace of your spasming cunt. âUgghh,â grunts, then his lips take yours again. âMmmm.â He erupts, and you're still not finished. He holds you still, holds you tight. His hips lift slowly into you as his cock pulses. Massive bursts of warmth flood your core, and he kisses you slowly but needily as he comes. The kiss becomes sloppy. You both breathe through your noses, but your mouths still disconnect for split seconds, breathing each otherâs humid breath.
When Joel finishes emptying his load into you, he gently pulls his lips from yours to take a deeper breath. He leans back and collapses on the bed. You sit there on his cock, still twitching, and your hand drifts to your tingling lips. His hands rest on your thighs. You watch his chest expand with air, and you watch his face. He opens his eyes, then silently motions câmere with both hands. You fold at your hips and hug him. As you settle in, he strokes the nape of your neck. His chest rises and falls under your cheek. He unfastens the leather choker for you. You were planning to sleep in it, but now that heâs kissed youâand it was more than that, it felt like moreâyou don't feel quite as desperate for the tangible reminder that he wants you. You have it. Your lips are buzzing. Your whole body is. You can feel it in your bones.Â
-
After a few minutes of caressing you, Joel murmurs, âLet's get some sleep.âÂ
You both get under the covers. He lies on his back. Youâve never seen his face so peaceful. You rest your head and half your body on him. You rest your hand on his chest. He strokes your back. Then, he lays his other hand on top of yours. Â
Soon, you drift off to the sound of him lightly snoring.Â

nct dreamâs reaction to your feet hurting from wearing high heels
Word count:Â 1.9k
Warnings: mentions feet (LOL), pain, blisters & lots of fluffÂ
Notes: hi loveys! itâs been awhile :( i know i said iâll post the jaemin au soon but itâs taking longer than i expected to craft it. so i was inspired by this markâs bubble & fancall + my own experience after a new pair of high heels obliterated my feet when i wore it for a wedding reception. i hope you all enjoy this! sending lots of love <3
đMark:
Your friendâs wedding reception is finally over. A night of celebration, of watching your friend so happy in her wedding gown and so excited to finally be married to the love of her life. A whole night of eating, casual drinking and dancing on the dance floor. But now that Mark and you are walking home from the car near midnight, the ache in your feet and the blisters on the heels of your feet can no longer be ignored. Mark stayed away from drinks all night knowing he had to drive home, heâs holding your hand and the two of you are walking in what seems like blissful silence. But he quickly notices the way you stagger slightly, you try not to let the pain show on your face, knowing youâll be home soon anyway. âYou okay?â Mark asks softly. You quickly nod, offering a thin-lipped smile. âJust my heelsâŚâ Mark glances down, noticing the redness on the skin, around the rim of your black high heels. His eyebrows arch in concern, eyes darting up at you and then down at his own feet. He slides his feet out of his dress shoes, then squats down to gently hold your ankle, tugging your feet out of your high heels. âMark. Baby, what are you doing?â Mark helps you put on his shoes, clearly a few sizes too big for you. He hooks his fingers at the counters of your high heels before standing up straight again and holding your hand. His own feet were clad only in his navy Polo Ralph socks. âBetter?â He asks with a sweet smile on his face, and you canât help but chuckle as you smile back, nodding as you two make the rest of the way home like this. Your hand in his, as he walks almost barefoot, your high heels in his other hand.
đRenjun:
You were starting to have trouble walking because of blisters forming on the heel of your right feet because of your high heels. Renjun and you are on a date and you really wanted to wear this pair of white heels you saved for this specific dress youâre wearing today. Even though you werenât a tall girlie, you never really wore high heels, always preferring sneakers for comfort. But you havenât dressed up properly in a while and you wanted to today. Renjun was holding your hand, clutching tightly onto you when you wobble due to the pain. He looks at you as you regain your balance. âYour feet are hurting, arenât they?â He asks, a small frown on his face from worry. You shake your head, âJust not used to walking too long in heels.â Renjun glances down at your feet, seeing how red your skin has turned. He sighs as he shakes his head, leading you by the hand to sit on a nearby bench. As you finally sit down, you let out a soft sigh of relief as Renjun squats in front of you. He pulls out two, moomin band-aids from his back pocket. âI warned you about wearing these heels, loveâŚâ Renjun nags as he pulls your foot gently out of your shoes to place the band-aid over your blister, doing the same with the other. âBut I wanted to look pretty for today,â you mutter as you let him take care of you. âYouâre always pretty.â Renjun mumbles back as he finishes putting the band-aids on you, looking up as he smiles. âAll done, does it help at all?â You nod as you slip your feet back into your high heels, the pain much less noticeable. âThanks, love.â The two of you go on your way, with moomin band-aids peeking out from the counter of your shoes.
đJeno:
You hiss, gripping onto Jenoâs forearm as you stumble slightly. Jeno looks back at you, reaching to hold your waist, stabilising you. âWhatâs wrong, baby?â âMy high heels are killing meâŚâ Youâre at your wits end with this. Youâve been wearing your heels all night, you even prepared band-aids but theyâve rolled up from all the walking and now youâre left with blisters forming and a constant ache at the bottom of your feet. Thereâs still some distance to the car, Jeno bites his lower lip, thinking. You hold onto him still, trying to adjust your feet, as if it would help lessen the pain. Jeno suddenly grabs your hand, gently peeling them off his forearm. You look up at him curiously. âJeno, what are you- aaAA!â Jeno bends down and throws you over his shoulder, holding your dress firmly against your thighs as he chuckles at your surprised scream. âLEE JENO! oh my- put me down!â He continues walking with you over his shoulder, his hand gripping on the back of your thigh protectively, âAlmost there, baby.â Itâs pretty late at night but thereâs still enough people around to make you feel embarrassed about this all. When the two of you finally reach the car, Jeno puts you down. Youâre standing up again, back pressed softly against the car. Youâre covering your face, out of both embarrassment and shyness. âWhat?â Jeno asks, chuckling as he unlocks the car with his key. âThat was so embarrassingâŚâ you mumble as you put your hands down and away from your face. Jeno smiles as he ruffles your hair, opening the passenger seat door. âGet in, princess. Letâs go home and soak your feet in some warm water, hm?â
đHaechan:
âWould it kill you to walk slower?â You whine as youâre literally being dragged by Haechan as you struggle to keep up with his pace in your high heels. Haechan stops in his tracks, âI told you not to wear those. Your feet always end up hurting.â Haechan playfully complains. You pout slightly, bantering. âBut it makes me look sexyâŚâ you mutter. Haechan chuckles, âNot so sexy when you canât even keep up with me.â Haechan laughs when you look at him disapprovingly, crossing your arms. He shakes his head, pulling out a drawstring pouch from his bag. He opens it and pulls out a pair of your sneakers, with clean socks stuffed below the tongue. You look at him with a shocked expression, eyebrows arched in both confusion and also endearment. Haechan chuckles at your expression, squatting down to help you change out of your uncomfortable high heels. âWhatâs with that face? Why? Are you touched?â He teases. You let out a huff, hesitating as you watch him slide your foot into your sneaker. âKind ofâŚâ He keeps your high heels into the drawstring pouch before stuffing it back into his bag. âI know beauty is pain. But I brought them in case the pain got a little too muchâŚâ He says as he looks at you, smiling. You canât help but reach out to pinch his cheek lightly. âSee how much i love you now?â Haechan says teasingly as you two continue walking, now much more comfortably as youâre able to keep up with him.
đJaemin:
Jaemin came to pick you up after work. It was an important day and you had a presentation that youâre been stressing over all week. So Jaemin and you decided to celebrate by eating dinner together. Dinner was great, but now that you two are walking back home from the train station, your feet are starting to ache from wearing your high heels all day. Youâre walking a lot more slowly as your arm is hooked around Jaeminâs. He notices your discomfort before you even say anything. âAre your feet hurting, honey?â He asks in a soft voice. You look at him, nodding slowly. âBut itâs fine, weâll be home soon anyway.â Jaemin frowns, stopping in his tracks as he holds your hand now. âItâs still quite a walkâŚâ He says, expression softening in worry before he perks up slightly. He lets go of your hand, moving to stand, hunched in front of you. He claps once before turning his head slightly to smile at you. âGet on!â You chuckle, âHuh?â âGet on my back.â âWhat? No, Iâm heavyâŚâ Jaemin clicks his teeth, shaking his hips playfully (this man loves to shake ass). âHurry!â âOk, ok, fine.â You finally give in as you hop onto his back, giggling as he hooks his arms firmly under the back of your thighs. âLetâs go!â He exclaims as he begins to playfully run towards the direction of home, with you squealing as you cling tightly onto him.
đChenle:
You rarely wore high heels, because they were painful to walk in. So you had no idea what came over you when you put them on today. Chenle and you barely even got to the restaurant when you tapped out, complaining about how the heels are already blistering your skin. The two of you still had time to spare before your dinner reservation so Chenle asked you to stay in the car as he ran to a shop nearby to get you some comfortable shoes. You tell him itâs fine and to just get some band-aids instead. You see Chenle jogging back towards the car, a big smile on his face and a big paper bag in hand. When he opens the door, he laughs as he gets in. âI got us matching sneakers.â He states as he pulls a shoe box out of the paper bag. Chenle has you change out of your high heels. âArenât they expensive?â You ask as you take note of the brand. Chenle shakes his head, âDoesnât matter, we havenât gotten a matching item in a while. Does the shoe fit? Canât remember if I got your size right.â You nod, smiling at him. âIt fits, itâs comfy too.â Chenle chuckles. âDefinitely better than your heelsâŚâ You gaze at him sweetly, before leaning over to plant a soft peck on his cheek. âThanks, baby.â Chenle freezes slightly, his ears and then his cheek turning red. âItâs fine⌠letâs go.â He exits the car first, walking over to your side as he opens the door. His hand stretched out for you to take.
đJisung:
Itâs after the dinner and dance event at the place you intern. The other intern, Jisung and you were walking to the train station to head back home since the both of you only live a couple stops away from each other. You two were talking about the events of the night and how your week was when you staggered slightly, the ache in your feet making you almost lose your balance. Jisungâs arm stretches out almost instinctively, hovering at the small of your back but not quite touching. âBe careful, are you okay?â Jisung asks, looking at your face, examining if somethingâs wrong. At first he thinks itâs the drinks, he only had a glass of champagne but he remembers you having seconds over the dinner. You shake your head, smiling at him. âItâs my high heels⌠Iâve just been wearing them all day, thatâs why.â Jisung nods, chuckling, âAh⌠thatâs why you look a little taller today.â He playfully teases. âHey!â You shove him slightly, causing you to stumble slightly again. âWoah, woah, okayâŚâ Jisung holds onto your arm gently. He glances at you then at your high heels, a slight blush grows on his cheeks. âH-hereâŚâ he pulls your arm slowly, hooking it around his forearm, âyou can hold on to me.â Jisung says, not looking at you anymore as he gulps. You gaze at him, before cracking a slight smile, chuckling. âThanks, JiâŚâ you hold on a little more firmly against his forearm as he tugs you slightly closer to him.

Pairing: Chris x influencer!reader (established relationship)
Warnings: language, suggestive talking
-âşď¸ď¸âşď¸ď¸âşď¸ď¸-
You had just arrived back at the LA house. Holding food bags from McDonalds. You went over to Mattâs room and dropped his food off. Realising the boys were on stream, but Chris was in his room.
You headed down to the bottom floor, Chrisâ room. You knock on the door then open it.
Chris looks over and smiles âhey chat, my meal is here.â He smirks and made sure to hide his actual food from the camera. As you walks over and sat in the spare chair. Chat blew up.
âOMG HEY Y/N!!â âEW CHRIS U JUST CALL HER UR MEAL LOLâ âCHRIS NO AHAH đâ ây/n is not his food guys she went to McDonalds đâ âomg Y/n on stream with the boysâ âcuties!!!â
You smiled at the camera âhey guys, imma hop on stream with Chris and Matt.â Chris smiled and placed his meal out on the desk âchat should Y/n take over while I eat??â Matt joked âyeah, she better anyways.â Chris playfully gasped âabsolutely not!!â You laughed. Taking the controller from Chris. You started to play Fortnite with Matt.
As you played, Chris watched and read chat as he ate. Heâd giggle at some comments. He asked âhey chat?? Should I feed Y/n/n a nuggie??â You laughed. Chat obviously agreed. You joked âthe fucking edits are gonna go wildâŚâ he laughed âperfect!â
He held a nugget to your lips, you took a bite. Then he fed you the other half. You thanked him then handed over the controller as he was done eating.
You talked with everyone who was watching the stream as they played. Chris glanced over and chuckled âchats asking ass or titsâŚâ Matt replied âpersonality, then heart..â Chris smirked âexactlyâŚâ you pulled a âok, did he just agree to thatâ
Then Chris added âthen ass.â You gasped âI was fucking waiting for that!!â You added âI was like âdamn he really just agreed with Matt without saying thatâs then you said it I was like âthere it isââ you all laugh.
While Matt was doing something, you and Chris sat in his room waiting for Mattâs return.
Chris was eating a pack of sour patch kids. You stuck your index finger and thumb out. You give him the puppy dog eyes âcan I have you?â He grinned âmagic word??â âPlease??â âItâs abracadabra!â He laughed hard. You laughed at him, thinking âhow the fuck was it that funny??â He held the pack out to you âhere babe, since you sooo kindly said âpleaseâ I guess Iâll let you have some.â You smiled âthank youuuâ
You looked to the camera âsee chat, this is what I gotta stick up with.â That earned a loud gasp from Chris âyou did not!â He put his sour patch kids down and started play fighting with you.
Matt returned to his room, sitting back in his chair. âYou guys ready for another round on here? Or we playinâ dress to impress???â No answer⌠âChris? Y/n? Chat, whatâre they doing??â He leaned closer to his screen and read chat. Spamming.
âTheyâre play fighting again!!â
Matt chuckles, you get back into your seat again âMatt come get your fuggly ass brotherâ Chris playfully but definitely gently punched your arm. You punched his back âow bitch! That hurt!â You giggled. âYeah, yeah, laugh it up!â âWa, wa, babe, too bad so sad.â Chris demanded âkiss it better!!â You laughed. Giving his shoulder a kiss.
After a while, you were now sat on his lap as you watched him and Matt play dress to impress. âNo Chris get the mini skirt!!â âIâm getting there!!â You clapped when he put it on the avatar âfucking slay, hoe!â He smiled. You said âchat, rate fit outta ten!â Everyone spamming nines and tens.
As the ratings started, Chris wrapped his arms around your waist. Placing a few small kisses to your cheek and jaw. He smiled âfoot outfit choice, babyâ you smiled âwhat can I say, Iâm just too good.â Matt and Chris laughed.
You lean back into Chris, resting your head on his shoulder. Staying like that for the rest of the stream. In between all the play fighting and grabbing snacks. He also gave you the occasional kisses and pecks. You were the official âchat readerâ as Chris put it. Reading out chat and talking to the viewers. Everyone loved you on stream with the guys while they played games all night.

she slurs still intently focused on stiring the not needed to be stirred vegetables she had placed in the bowl. You shaking your head from side to side seeing she had gotten distracted from the task at hand.
"can i have a try lil"
matt asks his daughter standing next to her attempt to kneel down a little at her level. She inaudible agrees holding up a chopped up carrot to his lips as he opens his mouth eating the carrot in her hand. Lily quickly jerked her hand away because of the uncertainty of the fact she didn't know if matt was going to bite her fingers.
"is it good"
she asks matt as her eyes sparkle with hope towards her dad.
"so good baby"
he gleams kissing her forehead.
"MOMM!!"
your daughter screams as she is sitting on the couch in your guys living room.
"yes baby whats going on"
you hurriedly rush out worried.
"my tummy hurts"
lily sobs out curled up in a ball in the corner of your guys couch, breaking your heart.
"aww baby girl how bad does it hurt; what does it feel like"
you ask her kneeling down next to her at the foot of the couch running your fingers through her messy brunette hair as she continued to sob.
"like really bad"
she chokes out, hiding her face in her arms that were laying in front of her supporting her head on the couch.
"aww baby"
you coo out. You guys sit there for a minute or so as you noticed your daughter's face morphs into a very readable face.
"mom i-i gon-"
she gasps out
"you gonna throw up"
you ask her quickly as she quickly nods her head
"bathroom lets go"
you breath out as you and her make your way into you and matts shared bedroom to the bathroom.
"lily wh-"
matt trails off surprised by his daughter's and wife's entrance into the room but realizes what is going on when he hears the audibly sound of throw up spilling onto the floor, meaning she didn't quite make it to the toilet.
"lilyyy"
you gasp out seeing that she threw up all over the marble tiled floor, you knelt down behind your daughter rubbing her back and gathering the hair out of her face as she continues to release the contents in her stomach now in the toilet.
"matt"
you call out as his face appears in the doorway fo the bathroom with a concerned look, then going into the kitchen to get the cleaning supplies and returning momentarily.
"thank you"
you mouth to your husband as he simply just nods his head and kisses you and your daughters heads.
"you get it all out"
you ask your daughter as she nods her head as you gather all of her tying it away in a messy bun on top of her head.
"you wanna go lay down in mom and dads bed"
you ask as she nods her head again.
"dadd"
you daughter sheepishly squeaks out from the backseat of the car.
"yess lilyy"
matt responds dragging out the 'y' playfully with you giggling next to him in the passenger seat
"i h've to g'potty"
"okay babygirl hold on dad is going to find a potty"
you reply to her as matt changes his speed, knowing his daughter has a small bladder.
"momm i have to go potty"
your toddler drags out kicking her feet in the car seat in the back as a few minutes pass. As you turn in the passenger seat reaching your hand out to lilly for her to hold.
"i know lils almost there think about puppies to take your mind off of it"
you giggle at you toddler in repsonse.
"i cant im only thinking of water because we are going to the beach today and its not helping"
Lily whines out. As Matt and you chuckle at your daughter.
"baby lily whats going on"
you ask your now 13 year old as you rush over and sit next to her on her bed rubbing her back as she raggedly breathing.
"i-i-i d-d-dont k-knowww"
she chokes out a response
"MATT"
you call out for your husband as he come running into his daughters room coming over to the pair.
"whats going on- lily baby girl whats wrong talk to me"
matts asks her kneeling down in front of her on her bed.
"dad i-i-i cant b-b-breathe"
she sobs out as he reaches out and grabs his daughters hand pressing it against his chest
"baby girl its okay yes you can match my breathing okay"
he responds as she raggedly copies his breathing.
"i-it's not working i cant"
she chokes out.
"yes you can look in-"
you trail off taking a deep inhale with your daughter and Matt.
"and out"
you continue exhaling along with her while still rubbing her back comfortingly.
"there you go"
matt calmy states once he see she is breathing normally again.
"im sorry i dont know what happened"
"hey hey you dont have to apologize it happens to all of us"
matt coos out taking a seat next to her as she lean her head on his shoulder.
