Tries to get Loki to party but Loki just wants to drink wine with the cat he snuck into his dorm. Learns Sign from Clint to prepare for his career in education. Loves working out with Bucky, Sam and Steve. Takes up boxing during football off season and spars with Bruce. Despite being everyones fav himbo he gets really good grades and is a very good writer. Loki dorms across the hall from him. Thor actually rooms with Peter. Peter is the freshman baby and Thor takes peter under his wing and introduces him to everyone and helps him with college stuff in general. Also hooks him up with MJ and brings him to the occasional boxing session. Has a loud booming laughter you can hear in all floors of the library when he sees a funny meme. One time he actually makes a very good point and notices a flaw in one of Tony and Bruces projects leaves everyone stunned. Picks on Loki in big brother fashion. Unironically calls weed the devils lettuce.

Loki: Pre-Law and Criminal Justice. LOVES to argue. (Devils advocate ass) In Mock Trial and Criminal Justice Club. Tony jokingly calls him steves sexy secretary in CJ club. Loves Mock Trial and is the president with Nat as his right hand woman. Sneaks a cat he found at the shelter into his dorm and names it muffin. Stays in the Library writing or going over cases. The one time he was taking Natasha a copy of the Mock Trial case packet and caught her and bruce smooching. (He screeched) "Haha funny joke yall heres the case packet BYE." He automatically texts the group chat "i think nAT AND BRUCE HAVE SOME TEA FOR US HMM". Lets Peter and Bruce come over to his dorm because he knows their roommates can get a little too much sometimes. Loki also becomes an avid twitter user and thats how he gains popularity on campus.

Is both in Criminal Justice Club and Engineering Club. In the Historically Black Frat on campus and takes huge pride in that. Parties with tony and thor BIG TIME. Procrastinates by throwing paper airplanes at Bucky until Bucky is like "Um...dude your paper is due in like two hours." At that moment Sam got into work faster than he ever had. Loves gossip sessions with Loki and Wanda. Works out a lot with Bucky, Steve and Thor to get rid of stress. When he and Bucky finish a final they go to loki's dorm and ask "Hey can we see your cat." Helps prep food for friends-giving and decorates the dorm for holidays. HATES 8ams so so so much. Steve promises him pancakes if he gets up and goes. Binge watches shows during weekends and screams when Destiel is finally canon. Loves running and gets a Track Scholarship when Thor gets him to join a sport. Gets Peter to join track.

Bucky: criminal justice major and psychology minor. Buck is also in ballet club with Nat, it really helps him relax and gives him a free space to think (also he runs that shit like no ones business) Criminal justice club as well and LOVES to work out and box. One time Sam accompanies him to ballet and Bucky pushes Sam into a split... the scream was heard for miles. "Sam ballet is good for athletes it helps w-" "Yeah but its not good for my balls" Doesn't willingly procrastinate but once in awhile he will forget an assignment, you best believe his eyes will snap open from his nap and get to work asap. For one of his psyche labs he had to question Steve as if he were Steve's therapist to which Steve responds "Hey bro you dont have to hit a nerve that deep" He also likes to do dance with peter since it helps him get away from Thor for a bit. Not a big partier but once the weight of finals are off his chest you best believe he will go all out. Picks on Nat and says hes gonna steal her man, to which tony interjects and says "Not if I do first" Bucky also has a very comfy dorm, comfy lighting and tons of pillows, the man loves his sleep... and so does everyone else. Sometimes he finds peter, sam, THOR, tONY EVERYONE just napping in his bed before their study time. Overall, bucky is a smart boy and his time in college is kind to him.

Wanda: English Major and Education Minor. After being an orphan Wanda knows what it feels like to not have a parental figure there and she wants to change that for other kids by becoming an english teacher. She volunteers at an orphanage, specifically the one her and pietro were in for a brief moment when they came to the states. She loves to draw as well and takes plenty of art classes with steve. She paints a portrait of the entire gang and gives it to tony as a graduation present (he cried). She loves to do volunteer work for children and also spend a lot of time in the library, She helped Nat calm down before Bruce asked her out. Her and Loki are in constant competition for best dressed. "Loki ill let you win best dressed but you have to let me see your cat" "ugh fine... btw your shirt doesnt match your boots" "hEY" Her and Peter take alot of intro classes together and are constantly running around craft stores trying to get the right stuff for projects. Visits Vision at his Job on Campus and he visits her where she volunteers and eventually they start dating. She is constantly getting visited by pietro at 4am asking "Um do you have milk" "Pietro its 4am what do you ne-" "my OREOS"

Pietro: Track star business major, frat ICON with Thor. poor boy is STRESSED he hates college and is here on a track scholarship, constantly late and running around getting shit done. Queen of late assignments but still gets them graded because he is in Track. Yeah he has alot on his plate but he still parties with thor for hours. When he is drowning in assignments Clint is always there to help him, Bruce also helps him with biology and the more science-y classes. Likes to mess around and race sam at track practice. Not into coffee but will run on all the monster energy drinks you could possibly buy. Seriously is tired of 8 a.m courses, he just wants to nap after practice. Walks into the study room that everyone was in and actually looks more sleep deprived than tony. He gets a lot of tips from steve on how to have an easier time in college and it really helps him.

Vision: Grad student working on a civil engineering masters and a TA. Meets Wanda in the library and she asks him where the biographies are. He mistakenly says they are on the 2nd floor "Uh theyre actually on the third" "Then why did you ask?" "Cause I wanted to talk to you :)" He swooned. Through Wanda he met Tony and Bruce and became their best friend, He helped out a lot with engineering club and got them far. He spends a lot of time doing research for his masters degree, he loves relaxing with the group on weekends and picks on pietro as if he is already apart of the family. Him and Loki bond over intellectual conversations from time to time. Bruce and Nat go on double dates with him and Wanda. Went to a bar once with tony and bruce and had to stop tony from singing Queens entire discography, he had the best night that night. Helps everyone with getting into jobs and into grad school in general while everyone helps him let loose and have some fun.

Peter: Peter is a Physics major and eventually works his way up to biochemistry. (hardworking icon) He is the freshman baby of the group and is introduced to them through Thor. He dances with Buck and Nat sometimes as well. Tony obviously takes peter under his wing and helps him with assignments. One time everyone was in the same study room and him and pietro have a redbull shot gunning challenge. When Peter wins Thor picks him up and almost yeets the poor boy into the ceiling. "VERY WELL DONE YOUNG PARKER YOU SHOULD BE DOING THAT WITH BEER IN NO TIME." "Thor plz" Tony and Thor help him ask MJ out and even spy on them during a dinner date. (Imagine thor with sunglasses and a scarf around his head pretending to be tonys date) He feels so accepted in college because of the gang and gets all his work done on time. Goes out of his way to get everyone christmas presents and is so excited for friendsgiving. Becomes a little stressball during finals and midterms and stays in the library till it closes. He spots loki alot in there and helps loki with science classes while loki helps him with political science classes. He meets MJ through wanda and is obviously blushing the whole time while being introduced. Gets embarrassed when the guys flirt with aunt may. "guys plz stop" This is when Sam earns his "milf hunter" nickname. "Pete hows your aunt?" "She doesnt want you sam i-" its not like that... actually it is like that"

Coulson: Alumni Icon. Is the gangs Intro professor and is the reason why everyone meets eachother. (the class was chaotic indeed) Coulson loved that class so much and he still gets visited by everyone from time to time. He is obviously close with Nick. They were there that night when Tony was signing Queen at the bar and couldnt help but laugh.

Nick Fury: Dean for criminal justice and is heavily involved with criminal justice club and mock trial. He is tired of everyones shit as always. Makes a tiktok account for the criminal justice club and has no idea how to manage social media so gets Loki to help. Has to delete it when Loki commented "hah losers" on the engineering tiktoks page. He looks intimidating but in his office he has a picture with the club and has all the gifts he gets on display. (He even framed lokis comment because it was hilarious afterall)

Batdad and Sons (Batdad!Reader x Batfamily Headcanons)

Bruce

Despite both being men, you two remind Gotham of Thomas and Martha Wayne.

Because one of you is a gentle ray of sunshine who is deeply involved in charity work and seems utterly committed to making the world brighter.

Thomas was rather hands-off towards Wayne Enterprises, preferring instead to focus on his medical career and charities that actually affected change for the underprivileged in Gotham. Bruce remembers Thomas always having time for him, stopping everything if Bruce needed to talk with his father.

And the other is a strong, ruthless businessperson with style, grace, and sensuality, who can somehow manage a dizzying array of businesses while still being the ideal spouse and parent in the public eye.

Martha was the head of Wayne Enterprises and an involved boss - she personally saw to the upkeep of each branch of the company (she was the one to hire Lucius Fox). And even with all of these heavy demands on her time, she always appeared in public with Thomas at all of his charities and was involved enough with Bruce to help Thomas plan every family outing.

So, yeah, up to you which one the public thinks you are

Bruce has a constantly-updating social media presence that is run by the Batcomputer’s AI - it keeps tabs on where he is fighting crime and discreetly has Bruce’s account post things about being on the other side of the city

Bruce will occasionally post a romantic photo of you two

You run your own social media account - the Batcomputer automatically reblogs/retweets/likes whatever you post.

You have a lot of cute pictures of the family which the public goes bananas for.

Bruce is a Slytherin. He no longer visits the Pottermore site.

You find yourself making puns a lot while the family is on patrol.

Example: Mr. Freeze has just been defeated by the team.

YOU: Alright, time to put him on ice!

Bruce tends to groan at these because you have a tendency to interject them at inappropriate times. Once you got him to giggle in front of Selina because whenever she talked you just matched her tone but only said “meow”

“Meow meow meow, meow-meow meow meow-meow-meow meow. Meow.”

You do end up kidnapped a lot, as an important Gothamite public figure, and Bruce is generally quite impressed when you escape, because you can either talk an adversary to distraction, or use trickery to escape, or -most impressive - you once convinced a member of the Penguin’s gang to reconsider his life choices and let you go.

Once he got out of jail, Armand became your go-to party planner.

He also now helps Penguin with legitimate events at the Iceberg Lounge. Go figure.

Alfred

The two of you are avid devotees of “The Great British Baking Show”

Alfred never has a soggy bottom.

Dick spends the most time hanging out while you two make stuff, so he’s into it as well

Jason pretends not to be interested, but he’ll still tell you when bread is overworked.

Alfred is so full of wisdom and advice

And he is not afraid to get physical when needs must

Riddler once broke into Wayne Manor

The two of you basically dismantled him using Alfred’s combat medicine training and your own knowledge from working with him

Riddler had several broken bones, severe lacerations, and a mild concussion when he was wheeled to Arkham Asylum’s medical ward

“Y/N Wayne and Butler - BATMAN AND ROBIN????” said the tabloids the next day. Dick couldn’t stop laughing.

Alfred enjoys opera while cooking and baking, but isn’t averse to classic rock.

He also enjoys Beyonce.

You insist on Alfred having a regular day off, but he insists that he doesn’t need one.

“Please, Alfred. For me.”

*sighs* “...Very well, Master Y/N.”

Ravenclaw. He’s a Ravenclaw, definitely.

Dick

You two know all the choreography to “We’re All In This Together.”

And all the songs from the High School Musical series

Since he was little, you took him to every premiere of every Disney movie he wanted to see, press be damned if they made snide remarks about your son wanting to see a princess movie

This tradition has not stopped. Dick’s social media shows pictures of you two still going to every premiere - only now the two of you bring underprivileged children and kids from the orphanage to share in your fun

There’s a picture of you looking very Zen and sitting cross-legged on the red carpet as a bunch of kids swarm around you and one somehow has ended up on your shoulders. Behind you Dick can be seen wearing Mickey Mouse gloves and grinning wildly at the camera, kneeling with his arms around the shoulders of two young orphans

You personally don’t like clowns and trapeze scares you to death, but you never deny Dick when he asks you to go to the circus.

You once bought Haly’s Circus back from the people Mr. Haly had to sell to and gave ownership to Dick. So, technically, the two of you co-own Haly’s Circus now.

Dick once auditioned for Disney Channel (unbeknownst to Bruce). He still can’t quite bring himself to watch Wizards of Waverly Place, knowing that he almost had a role.

Speaking of Wizards, Dick thinks of himself as a Gryffindor - but he was sorted into Ravenclaw.

Jason

Jason gets really emotional over romance - whether it be real or in a movie or a book

He will never forgive Mr. Wickham for what he did

You have had to talk him down from chewing out people who think Catherine and Heathcliff are an ideal couple

And of course, he has shot his television at that one scene in every romantic comedy where things go wrong just before the two leads get together.

A Gryffindor.

Has a sleeveless shirt that asks if you’ve bought tickets to the gun show. Since he has an extensive gun collection, the irony is somewhat lost.

Doesn’t like to be questioned. Likes to question. You bridge the gap using sarcasm, mainly.

He is a superhero movie fanatic. However, he hates it when the love interest dies.

He does smoke, but he knows better than to do that around you. Roy always snitches on him

Roy is very intimidated by you, for some reason

More intimidated than by Jason, that’s for sure.

Maybe because you’ve made Ollie cry before (long story involving too many bottles of tequila, Oliver asking if he was your type, and you responding)

He tends to listen to you when he won’t listen to anyone else

You’ve proven that you don’t put up with much when it comes to him

��I’m gonna shoot this guy right now-”

“Jason you sit your butt down right now!”

“...yessir.”

Tim

Slytherin.

Sleepy. Too sleepy to do much.

Can be found sleeping in the weirdest places. Once he was asleep on top of the wardrobe in Dick’s room, and had no clue how he got there.

You have since insisted that he maintain a strict sleeping schedule.

Unfortunately, you are ignored.

You once gave him glasses that had pictures of his opened eyes instead of lenses as a gag gift. He uses them daily.

Tim likes to watch Jackie Chan martial arts movies. Or the Office. Or Friends. Depends on how many hours he’s been awake.

Tim is always listening to music - anything with a beat.

It helps him stay awake. The longer he stays awake, the louder his music gets.

Tim does not like ice cream - on family outings, he gets sherbert.

He’s very picky. You spent five days picking out the color of the sheets in his room because the current combination “bummed him out.”

He forgets that you aren’t supposed to draw on walls and uses his room’s walls as a piece of scratch paper.

You make him clean it himself.

This was unwise. He leaves it as is until there’s no more room.

Has an addiction to online gaming. He doesn’t know it, but you are his biggest rival online.

Because he always tells you “just one more round” or “until I lose”

So two hours later, when he still hasn’t logged off, you log on and grief him until he rage quits.

Then you console him as he complains to you, and you suggest he take a break from the game for a while.

You wonder sometimes if this can be classified as emotional torture.

It’s for his own good, honestly.

Damian

Hufflepuff and proud of it

As I mentioned, he is a startlingly good performer.

Has secret aspirations of being on Broadway - either in the Hamilton revival he’s planning for twenty years in the future or perhaps in something by Sondheim

His artistry continues into other realms

He writes fanfiction. This is not a drill.

To your eternal embarrassment and silence, you have become an avid reader of his work. (You created a fake account just to reblog and comment your support. Damian is unaware of this)

If you decide to send him to school (Gotham Academy or wherever), he gets into a lot of fights.

Mostly in defense of others, but also the occasional “he looked at me funny” or “said something about my parents”

I’d recommend home-schooling or online school for Damian. It fits better with his schedule so that his sleep cycle isn’t completely thrown off, and it keeps him away from the little creeps running wild in Gotham (there’s a statistic floating around that 80% of the Joker Gang is under 18, and it isn’t completely inaccurate).

He is a history buff, particularly when it comes to battles and battle tactics.

He knows battle strategy back to front

And yet he struggles with Checkers, and for some reason, Monopoly.

Damian was not given a middle name, so whenever you want to middle-name him, you make up some absurd placeholder.

“Damian Fingercrumpet Wayne, get down from the chandelier!”

“So help me, Damian Stipplenibbler Wayne, I will take away your zoo membership!

“Damian Montague Sasparilla Carthaginian Wayne, I want to talk to you right now!

bitter p.p - part one

pairing: peter parker x stark!reader

requested - yes

summary: ever since peter parker arrived, it's like you’ve been invisible - especially to your father - leaving you feeling pretty bitter. but are there other sweeter feelings that are being drowned out?

warnings: angst, maybe a couple curse words (i can't remember)

words: 2k

A/N: so here’s my first attempt at a series that I was inspired to write because of a blub request (whoops).

Its mostly unedited and im not sure i’d class it as slow burn but then again i’m probably wrong. also i’m kind of unsure about it because its the biggest thing I’ve ever written so any feedback would be so so appreciated.

⭐️ masterlist ⭐️

You weren’t someone who held grudges and you certainly weren’t somebody who disliked people easily. It just wasn’t in your nature. Your father had brought you up to be better than that. He’d brought you up to be kind to everybody. You’d been given endless life lessons on kindness and patience. So you tried. You tried to be kind to everybody, to take on board everything you’d been taught and put it into action. But like most things in life, there was one exception, and yours. Well, yours was Peter Parker.

Ever since all five foot seven of him walked through the doors to the avengers compound you found yourself unsure about how to feel for the first time in your life. And for someone who had always been very in touch with their feelings you were beyond confused. The way you felt about Peter Parker was uncharted territory. But one thing was for sure. He walked in and threw a spanner in your emotional works you didn’t really know to deal with it. For the first time in your life you encountered a problem that you didn’t know how to solve.

At first, everything had been fine. You’d introduced yourself to him like everyone else in the group. Spent time with him in the common room with everyone else and exchanged small talk with him at dinner or if you passed each other in the hallway. Everything seemed normal. He was a new recruit. Another avenger. Someone for your father to mentor and show the ropes, as he’d done with you. Plus he was kind of cute so it didn’t hurt to have him around (but you weren’t going to admit that to anyone).

But then something changed.

You figured that you were just frustrated that he was taking up so much of your dads time. I mean, Peter was suddenly always around. Constantly at Tony’s heels. Following him around like a lost puppy, and much to your dismay your father appeared okay with it. You’d even go so far to say it was like he’d practically adopted him. You tried to rationalise it that he was new and needed training, but it still bugged you.

See, the issue was Peter’s constant presence meant that you were seeing your dad less and less. He would pick afternoons in the lab with Peter over watching movies with you. Or he’d claim that he needed to work on Peters suit instead of your brownie recipe. He would delegate homework help sessions to Steve or Bruce while he worked on new web shooters with Peter until late. Each canceled plan with your dad was beginning to hurt more and more, and every time you saw Peter your anger grew.

It was starting to get to the point where it felt like Peter was his kid, not you. You’d tried to not be bitter about it. Tried to not let it get to you. But the cracks were beginning to show. You began to retreat into yourself. You spent less and less of your time in the common rooms of the tower and more and more of your time in your room. Stopped asking Tony to do things with you, because it hurt less than making plans that would just be blown off.

You’d also started to just want to be far away from Peter. Because every time you saw his face you were reminded that you were no longer your fathers top priority. You wanted to be far away from the displays of admiration between him and your dad. You’d started to feel like an outsider in your father's life. And things reached their peak when you decided to skip the annual group dinner that your father held for the team.

He hosted it every year to thank the team for everything they did and usually, it was one of your favourite events. You’d usually spend the evening laughing with the team. But this year you were certain that your dad wouldn’t even notice you weren’t there. Especially since for the first time Peter was going, and there was no way he wouldn’t want to show off his ‘protégé’ to the rest of the team like a shiny new toy. Yeah, that was something you would be happy to miss.

When the dreaded evening rolled around you informed F.R.I.D.A.Y to keep your door locked and that if anyone came looking for you tell them you didn’t want to see them or that you were sick, or whatever other excuse the AI wanted to come up with. Anything as long as it wasn’t the truth. Not that you expected anyone to notice you weren’t there. You’d practically been a ghost around the place for the last few weeks and since Peter was going to the party you were certain you wouldn’t be missed.

But Steve? Steve noticed your absence. At several points throughout the night he’d tried to get Tony’s attention to ask him where you were but he was too busy introducing Peter to everyone. He’d noticed the way you’d disappeared recently and had even discussed it with Sam and Bucky. They’d noticed how you’d only be around for a couple of minutes before vanishing off back to your room, and tonight had been the icing on the worry cake that they’d been baking for the last few weeks.

He’d told Sam where he was going and slipped away in search of you. He’d s round all your favourite places in the tower and arrived at your door after that had proven to be unsuccessful. But, the door was locked and F.R.I.D.A.Y was adamant he wasn’t allowed in. You heard the commotion outside your room and with hints of shock that somebody, anybody had noticed you were missing. intrigue getting the better of you you spoke calmly to F.R.I.D.A.Y.

“F.R.I.D.A.Y.”

“Yes, Miss Stark?”

“Who is at the door?” You stood up from your bed as a small part of you hoped it was your father, and that he’d noticed that you were missing but that hope quickly diminished with F.R.I.D.A.Y’s response.

“Captain Rodgers. Should I let him in?” You let out a shaky breath. At least somebody cared, even if it wasn’t your father.

“Yeah, it’s okay F.R.I.D.A.Y. you can let him in.” You sighed, flopping back onto your bed. The bolt in your door unlocked and it was pulled open by a concerned looking Steve. You motioned for him to come inside and shut the door as you reopened the book you’d been (not really) reading before he showed up.

“You okay?” He asked, as he took a seat at your desk facing you and you groaned, tossing aside your book and burying your head in one of your pillows. His face was a mixture of worry and confusion and you could tell that wasn’t the only question he wanted to ask. You mumbled a half-hearted response into the pillow.

“Why aren’t you at the dinner tonight? Are you sick? Is it something else?” You sat up and faced him. Knowing you weren’t going to be able to escape his interrogation. Steve was like a protective big brother to you, and you realised that maybe your recent behaviour had peaked his concern.

“It’s nothing Steve, please don’t worry about it.” You sighed. Trying not to let all your bottled up emotion from the last few weeks spill out of you. Because you knew if you started, you’d never stop.

“Well, I am worried about it. I’ve barely seen you for weeks and then you blow off tonight. There’s got to be something going on. C’mon. It’s just you and me, you can tell me.” He pushed the chair he was sitting on forward slightly so he was closer to you. The puppy dog eyes he gave you made you snap. It was the first time someone had shown interest, let alone concern for you since Peter had arrived. Tears began to slip down your cheeks and Steve stood from the chair, sitting next to you and putting a comforting arm around your shoulders.

“Hey, hey it’s okay. God, kiddo you gotta tell me what’s got you so upset.” He spoke, so gently, rubbing your shoulder with his other hand.

“It’s… it’s just lately, ever since Peter arrived. It’s like dad doesn’t even notice me anymore… and … and I… I just…” You hiccuped, now unable to control the weight of what you’d been feeling building up for so long.

You didn’t hate Peter. In fact, you felt the opposite about him. Like you said you thought he was really cute. The way his brown hair fell in messy curls or the way he dark chocolate eyes sparkled when he talked about something he was excited about. You knew that if you hadn’t felt so neglected or cast aside by your dad that you’d have wanted to have formed a friendship, maybe even something more with Peter, since he was the only one around the same age as you in the compound, but now, that opportunity was ruined.

Which is what led you to here. Crying into Steve over a boy you weren’t exactly sure how you felt about and the fact that your dad had been practically non-existent in your life since said boy had shown up. Your heart was confused and your head hurt.

“I noticed that too, kid. But I gotta ask. What makes you more upset? Your dad being so interested in Peter and so distant from you, or the fact you haven’t had the chance to get to know the only other kid around here that's your age? Or is it something else? Do you like Peter more than you're letting on?”

It was as if Steve had read your mind, and it almost annoyed you because it made you wonder if it was a hidden superpower he’d received with the super serum or if you were just that obvious.

“No…. No, it’s. It’s my… My dad.” You stutter. Shaking your head violently and wiping away stray tears as you tried to figure out which one of Steve’s options it actually was. Maybe if you said the one you wanted it to be with enough conviction you’d actually end up believing it.

“Okay, okay. Look, let’s forget about tonight. But I think you’ve done enough hiding. I want you should join us on the mission we have planned for tomorrow. It’ll be good for you to get out of the compound.” He put a hand on your knee, showing you how he was there to support you.

“Okay Steve, I’ll think about it.” You breathed out the last of your tears had dried. You placed your hand on top of his. “Thanks. You know for caring tonight.” Your voice turned to an almost whisper, as you looked up to meet his eyes.

“Of course! Is there anything else I can do? Do you want me to talk to Tony about this?” He asked as he pulled himself off the bed in preparation to head back to the party. Satisfied he’d made sure you were okay and even happier he finally knew what was going on.

“No, thanks Steve. It’s okay.” You replied, offering him a reassuring smile. He really had made you feel a lot better and you were even considering joining the team on the mission.

“You sure?” He asked, raising his eyebrows. He wasn’t pushing you to let him tell your dad, he was just making sure that you didn’t need any more of his help.

“Yeah, yeah. I’m sure. I’ll deal with it myself.” You laughed quietly shaking your head and shooting him a smile, one that almost made you feel like yourself again.

“I don’t doubt you will.” He chuckled. “Anyway, I better get back,” He began heading towards the door. Before he pulled it open he turned back to you with a soft smile on his face. “If you need me you know where I’ll be.” With that, he left, and for the first time in a long time, you didn’t feel so alone.

You fell asleep not long after he’d left, your emotional breakdown left you exhausted, yet feeling better for it. Better knowing that at least somebody was looking out for you and knew how you were feeling, and even if it wasn’t your dad, it was still better than nobody. Maybe, just maybe things would work out and be okay after all. Maybe.
