A (Not So) Meet Cute: Chapter Two
Chapter Summary: You finally get home, the skz boys talk about you, and you get added to a very chaotic group chat (sorry i kinda suck at summaries)
Warnings: None for this chapter, it's mostly building plot
Series Masterlist
Chan held your elbow to steady you as you stepped over the shattered glass on the ground. Once outside, you started towards the closest bus stop, eager to get back to your apartment and take a goddamn nap.Â
âWhere are you going?â The grip Chan had on your elbow tightened slightly, stopping you from walking away. His eyebrows were furrowed, and you mirrored his expression.
âTo the bus stop? How else am I supposed to get home?â This felt like an obvious answer to you.Â
âNah, I already messaged one of our drivers. Heâll be here any minute now to bring us to your apartment,â Chan explained. Your eyebrows shot up toward your hairline.Â
âUs?â
âIâm not about to let you take public transport by yourself with your phone dead. Youâve had enough excitement for one day, yeah?â A car pulled up right as you opened your mouth to protest. Chan opened the back door, tilting his head like he was daring you to say no. You sighed but climbed into the backseat, scooting over when Chan got in next to you.Â
âHey Dohyun, thank you for getting here so quickly,â Chan greeted the driver. He dipped his head in a quick bow to return the greeting, then looked at you. You told the elder the name of your apartment building and he quickly returned to the road. The car was comfortably quiet, the only sound being a soft jazz melody. You stared out the window, trying to process the events of your day. All too quickly Dohyun was parking the car in a visitor spot in the apartmentâs garage. You and Chan both unbuckled your seat-belts and you shot him yet another confused look.
âI donât want to overstep your boundaries here. You can totally tell me to piss off, but Iâd feel more comfortable if I could walk you to your apartment. I want to make sure your phone turns back on and my text went through,â Chan rambled in your stunned silence. âYou donât have to, of course, but-â
âChan, itâs fine. You can come up for a bit,â you interrupted. Chan looked genuinely relieved. You shook your head and stepped out of the car. What the fuck was your life right now?! The Bang Chan was in your apartment, sitting on your couch. You focused on keeping your composure while plugging in your phone.Â
âYouâre going to press charges, right?âÂ
âOh, um, I hadnât really thought that far ahead. Maybe?â Your statement sounded more like a question. Chan shot you a look that you couldnât decipher.Â
âThe other boys and I will help, you know. Weâll testify against that man,â Chan insisted. Your heart swelled with gratitude and admiration for the leader. You stomped down on the butterflies fluttering around your stomach.
Donât get it twisted, Y/N, heâs being nice because you went through a traumatic event. He doesnât- your thoughts were cut off by your phone vibrating endlessly on your desk.Â
âJesus, it figures Iâd get a million notifications on the only day my phone is dead,â you mumbled in English and picked your phone up. Chan snickered behind his hand. You ignored most of the notifications for now, opting to look for Chanâs text first. You could go through the rest after he left.Â
âYou get it?â You nodded and sent a message back to him so heâd have your number. âGood. I should get back to the studio to make sure the boys are alright.â Chan stood. You walked him to your door, and he turned back to you once he was in the hallway.
âSeriously, I canât thank you all enough. I donât know what would have happened if Seungmin didnât show up,â you repeated. Chan smiled but shook his head slightly.
âIs it alright if I give your number to everyone else?âÂ
âYeah, thatâs fine.â
âAlright, remember to text one of us if you need any help with the court process. Or just text us for fun. I think I can speak for all of us when I say weâd like to get to know you.â Your cheeks heated and you lost the ability to form a coherent sentence, so you just nodded. Chan looked very pleased with this. With a small wave, he strolled down the hallway toward the elevators. You closed your door, leaning your forehead against the wood to calm yourself.Â
Chan returned to the car and hopped back into the backseat. Dohyun raised his eyebrows, giving the younger man a knowing look. Chan rolled his eyes but couldnât contain his grin.
âJust get back to the studio, please,â he pleaded. Dohyun chuckled but didnât inquire any further.Â
Back at the studio, the other members of Stray Kids were discussing everything that happened while they helped clean up the mess.Â
âHow the hell did you manage to get such a cute girlâs attention?â Changbin poked Seungmin on the cheek. The younger swatted his hand away.
âDude, she was being followed by a man she didnât know,â Seungmin scoffed. âI happened to be the first person that went into the cafe.â
âHey I had no idea what was going on!â Changbin held his hands up in surrender. âI came out here to Minho cursing and talking about calling the cops. Next thing I know, a brick is breaking our door and you and Chan are getting in some guyâs face.â
âYou waited that long to see why we all left the recording booth?â Jisung teased. Changbin rolled his eyes.
âI didnât notice you leaving, I was messing with the backing vocal track.â Seungmin dragged a hand down his face at the rapperâs obliviousness. Felix filled him in with an abridged version of the situation.Â
âOh, shit.â
âWait, you didnât know what was happening and yet you joined the fight anyway?â Seungmin quipped with his eyebrows raised.Â
âI wouldnât really call it a fight,â Felix commented. Seungmin glared at him half-heartedly.Â
âYou and Chan got up in the guyâs face. I trust you both, so I figured he must have done something to deserve it,â Changbin explained. The rumble of an engine interrupted them. Moments later, Chan was stepping through the broken door. Multiple voices spoke over each other until Chan raised a hand.
âGuys, guys, one at a time,â he sighed. âBefore you even ask: yes sheâs home safe and yes she said I can give everyone her number.â Jisung sprung up, phone in hand. âJisung, chill. Iâll send her contact to the group chat.â
âYou couldnât have done that on your way back?â Hyunjin asked incredulously. The eldest just shrugged in response before sending your phone number to the âsingle father of sevenâ (Seungmin was to blame for the name) group chat.Â
âYouâre sure she got to her apartment?â Seungmin questioned. Chan nodded, still distracted by his phone.
âYea, I waited with her until her phone turned on.â
âYou got to go into her apartment?!â Jisung shook Chanâs shoulder. âYou cheater!â
âWhat?! How and why am I a cheater?â
âYou got to spend alone time with Y/N!â He accused. âYouâre trying to get her to like you more.â Chan rolled his eyes at Jisungâs shit-eating grin.Â
âYouâre a menace,â Chan snickered. âAlright, weâre done for today. Letâs get back to the dorms.â The boys filed out of the studio. A second car had joined the one Dohyun occupied. Chan, Minho, Seungmin, and Jeongin climbed into Dohyunâs car while everyone else got in the other.Â
âHey, Chan?â Seungmin started.
âYes, I told her that she should press charges and that we would help if she wanted it,â Chan answered before he could even ask the question. Seungmin closed his mouth, a little annoyed that he was so obvious but mostly relieved that you knew they would be there for you. The car fell to silence as they chatted in the newly made group, this one including you.Â
You: I seriously canât believe Iâm texting Stray Kids right now :0
Jeongin: are you stay?
Seungmin: obviously not, if she didnât recognize me lmao
You: hey!! I was a little distracted >:(
You: but to answer your question, i listen to your music sometimes but i wouldnât say iâm a true stay
Jisung: booooooo!Â
Hyunjin: im offended
Chan: pls chill i am begging
Felix: yea, its not that big a deal. we can turn her into a stay >:3c
You: oh sweet baby jesus, should i be scared?
Jisung: no
Hyunjin: no
Felix: no
Seungmin: yes đ
You: âŚâŚâŚâŚ
Chan: im so sorryÂ
You giggled throughout the conversation. Sure, you were a little starstruck but you were definitely playing up your nervousness. It was funny watching them argue amongst themselves. You spent the rest of your afternoon half paying attention to a new show on Netflix, but most of your focus was on the group chat (which Jisung lovingly named âcertified yappersâ). You had an oddly warm feeling in your chest bloom as you learned more about the personalities hidden behind the idol image.Â
You: i need to go to bed, i have work in the morning. gn guys!
You got a chorus of âgoodnightâ texts from everyone except for Seungmin. Oh, well. He might have fallen asleep already. No use worrying about it, you thought to yourself while going through your night time routine. Another text came through right after you settled under your blankets. You gaped at the message.
Seungmin: im walking you to work tomorrow. dont even bother arguing, ill meet you outside your building at 8:30. goodnight, Y/N

loved the sleepy Tyrrish men hcs. would you write one for how theyâd be if you had a nightmare?
Iâm so glad you liked the Sleepy Headcanons. Those were fun to write. Letâs see how theyâd react to this prompt
Prompt: nightmares
Bodhi:
If you had a nightmare Bodhi would be an amazing person to consult with.
Heâd take you seriously. Even though it was a dream he knows what those are lien and how real the fear is
No matter what heâs doing, if you come to him, heâs pausing any task to be there for you
âHey, bit late for you to be up - love, whatâs wrong? âŚ. Letâs head back to bed and talk about it. Can you walk? Iâll carry you.â
How does he take care of you: giving you lots of attention, eye contact, holding your hand while you talk, and if you canât share just yet heâs sitting in silence with you rubbing circles on the top of your hands while he holds them.
He always offers tea after you wake up from a nightmare to help you calm down to sleep again
He makes a mean cuppa tea and keeps a kettle in his room near the fireplace so he make a brew for you without leaving the room.
Heâs going to hold you, with your permission, for the rest of the night after you fall asleep.
Garrick
This man
Heâs so observant heâd most likely sense youâre having a nightmare and help coax you awake
And heâd be so fucking good at it
Youâd wake up terrified and heâs hovering over you like, âeasy, easy. Just a dream, love. Youâre fine. Take a deep breath for me, yeah? Atta girl.â
And even if you did wake up ready to fight and accidentally attack him heâd make some joke about how you need to take that energy to the sparring gym the next day
How does he take care of you: Garrick would listen to you like Bodhi but I donât think heâd be as present throughout the convo, mostly because heâs running though scenarios to see what he can do to make sure the nightmares go away.
And post-nightmare care with Garrick is great
After you fall back asleep heâs sneaking out in the morning to get you breakfast in bed or heâs using his âXaden is my friendâ card with senior leadership or Brennan to push back any matches or get you excused from class
Heâs also doing side guard dog duties and giving angry eyes or quick quips to anyone who says how tired you look the next day
Xaden
Ok do not come for me
I do not think heâd be the best person to take care of you after a nightmare
I donât think this man had a restful night himself since before the apostasy so I feel like he too is working through some shit himself
He probably wouldnât know you had nightmares unless you told him directly. And honestly heâd be a little stuck on how to take care of you.
Heâd hold you, ask if you want to talk and kiss your forehead but itâs very surface level
Nightmares are hard for him, and thatâs okay. Heâs great at other things
Though heâd make sure that if he canât help you, youâre getting Bodhis kindness and Garricks careful planning to make sure youâre taken care of.
Honestly heâd probably get Bodhi and Garrick in a room and be like âY/N is having nightmares. Fix it.â Lolol
And heâs there too! Not gonna lie but if heâs super confused on how to help you heâs using his signet to find out what the nightmare was. And if itâs related to any living person in the quadrant. Heâs going after them lolol
Heâs the male lead equivalent to âyou were mean to my partner in a dream and now I am pissed and going to kick your assâ
#fourth wing#the empyrean#bodhi durran#garrick tavis#xaden riorson#tyrrish men headcanons you didn't ask for

Hellowi pretty people I come over to ramble about random Nimona projects and stuff bc I'm excited about them but nothing's finished
I'm writing a short thing for fun with the idea of Ambrosius getting hearing loss because of the explosion that made Nimona and the laser and I'm listening to songs to see if I get inspo for the title (so far the doc is called 'Ambrosius gets hearing damage' but that's not cool JSKSHD), and listening to Mistki I was like omg a fic called Why Not Me. But then I was like omg a fic regarding Nimona and her monster form with the title 'I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down' but then I was like no omg what about a fic about comic goldenheart with the title 'I always want you when I'm finally fine'
I have no idea what qualifies as a good lyrics title but I think they work
And I literally have no ideas besides a phrase and the vibes for it, and still got no title for the temporarily deaf Ambrosius thing but it's so fun to do this sjdkdj (also, I really like the headcanon of him getting permanent but parcial (?) hearing loss on the ear that was closest to the explosion, it makes sense) (also I've experienced some partial hearing loss (?) at some point earlier this year and it's just so not fun to go through that bc people get very mad at you when you need them to repeat themselves more than twice and ask them to be louder pipipi anyways everything keeps happening around him and Ambrosius doesn't catch half of it and he feels a bit too helpless and scared of not hearing again but it works out in the end (more or less))
I see why everyone always picks lyrics as title names they're so coolest also mistki's songs are so good đđ they make me sad and happy at the same time sjddj
Another thing that has a long way to go and I'm trying to find a title for is an au of the gay dads au with mpreg where Ballister is from the beginning Nimona's dad and Ambrosius is that ex that by chance slowly makes his way back to his life and accidentally becomes Nimona's stepdad (like in Look Who's Talking? I think sjdkdj) also Meredith's there and she's cool and doing her own thing, I'm glad I read the comic bc I changed her relationship with Ballister in the fic and I think it works better with his decisions and motivations and all that stuff
(in my head it's very epic but to you it may seem like anything JSKDH)
Ballister is not really having a good time (lonely, unsure about his decision, scared and stuff, especially when he has to have her) but he has his good moments, promise. Also he hugs Meredith and she pats his back awkwardly like in the comic, at some point
Also as soon as Ballister finds out that Nimona's a girl he gets many very pink clothes pipipi Ambrosius gets him pink stuff for her too bc he sees any cute baby clothes or accessories and he's like hey I bet Ballister would like this for his baby :) and buys it
Nimona doesn't like him much when she's born, and he's like aw c'mon :( I bought you so many gifts pipipi I helped fold your tiny little clothes that one time !! (Ballister points out that he had done a very shitty job at it and Ambrosius shushes him, covering Nimona's ears)
ALSO
I'm drawing stuff for a TikTok post about mpreg but for comic goldenheart and trying to make the comic plot fit into it and it's so silly bc they have nothing to do with one another.
Ambrosius and Ballister don't beat the shit out of each other at the bar but Ballister goes away all angrily while Ambrosius walks behind him going Ballister I'm not done talking to you !!! >:(
And Ballister's like I am !! >:( and then there's another drawing of him leaning against a wall with one hand going damnit because he overworked himself, and Ambrosius going all *touching his hands together nervously* do you need to sit down :(? And Ballister going ...no. fuck off.
Also Nimona telling him to just abort that thing when he first told her (and he hadn't known yet what to do about it), and then when Cyrus' born he's staring angrily at her (he's not, he's just newly born and scrunched) and Nimona's like, holy shit boss, he remembers đ and Ballister's like, ?? How's he gonna remember, he doesn't even know you.
Also Ballister getting sad about the discussion at the bar and Nimona cheering him up with the science fair, but him going this won't trick anybody, look at međ *gestures to his pregnant self* and Nimona's like, nah boss you just look like you got a beer gut, it'll work. How they manage to run away from the guards/knights and all that when Nimona's stuck in cat form, that's not my business đ§
Also Cyrus is born sometime before the whole Ballister freaking out about Nimona's powers, so he's somewhere in the kingdom being babysat by a nice older lady or something when Nimona's part is destroying everything. Or maybe he's just peacefully sleeping very far away in the lair and Ballister goes around the whole thing with a baby monitor, whichever option works. (Neither does đ)
So yeah yippie I wanna post this stuff but nothing's finished pipipi đ
#nimona#my fics#i guess sudkdjd#i realized i could link my nimona fics here but#thatd be embarrassikg because time has already gone by since ive posted them#maybe the new ones i will#maybe not tho depends on how ashamed i am of it sjdkdj

Mars âď¸ and Your Sexxx Language đąđâ¨
QUICK MESSAGE TO THE BADDIES
HELLO!!!! To all of my sweet, sweet Kosmic Baddies, Oh!! How Iâve missed you!
I cannot believe itâs been over a FRIGGIN year, but GOODNESSâŚ.believe me, when I say this past year has been a roller coaster for me, I truly mean it. I can only imagine whatâs been going on in your lives as well. Just TOO MUCH!!!1111!!!!!111!!!!!1 But welcome to 2024! A universal 8 year and the year of the Dragon!!! WE IN THIS THANNNNGGG!!!! Hard work, discipline and accountability is the theme, and we canât lose!!!!!
Believe it or not, I actually STARTED writing this to have to you for Halloween, but ummmmâŚ.this is looking like a Valentineâs Day post instead! HA!!!! Blame it on my Saturn in Piscesâ my relationship to time isâŚ.non existent. But, I think this timing is better anyways. The theme is very fitting so we are going to turn apples into oranges.
***Even funnier update, now itâs past Valentineâs DayâŚ.GOODNESS!!! This has been the longest itâs taken me to write anything. LikeâŚINSANE. Almost 6 months Iâve been steadily working on this!
Thank you to those who have continued to support me! Thank you to those who have continued to share and interact with my post through myâŚletâs say, hiatus! I am planning to put more energy and effort into this blog post. I LOVE writing for yâall, it is really one of my favorite things in the world.
I am going to take a moment to apologize in advance and say, the typos are probably going to be real with this one. Because Iâve been working on it for so long, Iâm just ready to get it out, so it wonât be my cleanest work. I will probably be updating and editing, so bare with me!
đŻ INTRODUCTION đŻ
SoooooâŚ.where to start? I wanted to do something fun and interesting this go round because I missed yâall so much, but I also wanted to do something light so I could get back into the rhythm of writing againâŚ.aaaaaaaaaand I thought you would enjoy something a little smexiiiii as we move into cuddle buddy season. So, in this post, we are going to talk about Mars and Your Sexxx language.
One day, as I was driving around town, it dawned on me that we always talk about Love Languages (check out my Mercury post if you havenât already) and we never talk about sex languages. And yâall know me, and if you donât know, youâll soon find out, I am a Bharani moon (atmakaraka at that); and the blending between Mars and Venus is my soulâs most valuable asset to share with the worldâŚ(Did I mention my moon is the 11th House?) Sex is one of the most taboo topics (in Western puritan culture, at least), yet such a powerful resource in our human tool box and itâs ridiculously important in our relationships. The 7th House is followed by the 8th House for a reason. Intimacy, of course not always sexual, is what leads to self-discovery, the 9th House. So we cannot overlook the important step that is sexual relations. Even the word âorgasmâ means âlittle deathâ and death baby, is as close as you get to God. (See how those houses flow together so well?) Hence why things such as Tantra are a sexual AND religious experience all in one. Donât be fooled by western/christian ideals into thinking that sex is unholy or ungodly. If you think Jesus was a virgin, think again. I mean, whatâs the point of turning water into wine if youâre just going to roll over and go to sleep? Yâknow what I mean?
Donât worry! If youâre a less experienced reader, and havenât engaged in aaaaallll thhhaattt⌠this post is still for you! In fact, this is one of the reasons I love astrology so much, because hopefully this post will give you some context about yourself and what your SOUL craves, not just your body, so when you do start âdoing the doâ you can be spiritually comfortable with your wants and desires instead of ashamed or even afraid of them.
Not to put all my business on the streetâŚbut, hey, I love yâall, so I wonât keep too many secrets from you (mercury in the 8th, HA)âŚbut, I had to do quite a bit of bumping and grinding to discover what my soul needs in an intimate relationship and I wish there was more of âguideâ for me on that journey! So HEREâŚIâm giving it to you!
WHAT IS A SEX LANGUAGE? đ
To be completely honest, a âsex languageâ isnât something as defined as a love language, so please, bear with me as we discover this together. Please feel free to share any experiences or insight with me. Although I may not always respond, I TRULY appreciate you taking the time to share with me. I try to read everything that I can!
Iâm defining sex language as how one creates and shares intimacy in their close relationships. This is particularly expressed through physical interactions and outward expressions. Mars is a planet that governs our passions, drives and desires, meaning our sex language is guided by what we deeply want and crave from our partners on a spiritual level. Venus represents more of the external notions that we have for love and relationships, while Mars represents our internal needs from love and relationships. Mars is inherently a more personal and âself-centeredâ planet, so interestingly enough, your sex language is all about you! I go as far to say, when you find a partner, donât forget to check your Mars compatibility as well. If you have extremely incompatible Mars signs, you will have to do a lot more work in the relationship to overcome the constant friction. Moreover, if you have more compatible Mars signs, then WOOOO BABY, the sexual tension could be off the charts!
⨠ABOUT MARS â¨
Mars placements wonât make or break a relationship, per say, but it is a very important layer to help maintain a relationship. How many of you have heard of sexless marriages and people being unsatisfied in their relationships in a sexual way? Does that mean the couples always break-up because of the lack of sex or chemistry? NoâŚ..But does it help a HECK OF A LOT when you are wildly attracted to your partner? YES! (Of course this isnât always a good thingâŚbut for the sake of this post, we are only talking about rainbows and sunshine.) Just keep this in mind as you start to use this knowledge in your journey. Mars is a really important planet that is easy to overlook because itâs not in the Big Three! (Yet, it iiissss the natural ruler of the 1st House).
WHY IT ALL MATTERS đ
I truly believe there is a shift in the collective and many couples are going to be coming into union over the course of the next year or so. Why? Because Ketu is FINALLY transitioning out of Libra and entering Virgo. If youâve noticed, weâve seen quite a bit of celebrity break-ups and covid relationships coming to a screeching halt. Hence why I say, if youâve been single, or havenât been in a serious connection in the last few years or even ever, now is the time that your next partner might be going through some significant ending with an ex. Union is on the horizon for a lot of souls who have been doing theeee spiritual work. Thatâs why I couldnât think of a better topic to get started to set the mooooooooood. Bow-chicka-wow-wow.
So without further ado, letâs get into the nitty gritty. Iâm going to do something different and start with Mars in Pisces/12th House and work backwards to Mars in Aries/1st House! I thought âHey! Why not switch it up a bit? Pisces shouldnât be forced to scroll ALL the time!â
***Note: If youâre feeling extra spicy, you can read for whatever sign is in your 1st House and 8th House as well because those are traditionally Mars ruled Houses. And you can read for your 12H, because the 12H is also the house of bedroom pleasures! Always keep in mind that we are complex creatures and astrology is like a puzzle, so itâs okay for some things to resonate and other things to not. Learn as many perspectives as possible so you can define yourself!
With Love & Lust,
Enjoy!

Mars in Pisces/Mars in the 12th House
âCut me like a rose, turn me like a beastâ Only- Ry X
If your natal Mars is in Pisces or the 12H, you may actually have a hard time knowing what your desires are. Why? Because Mars can feel as if itâs drowning in the deep spiritual waters of Pisces. Your wants can be quite dreamy. You crave a sexual experience that transcends space and time, forcing you to leave your body and touch God himself in ecstasy. (Iâm a western Mars in Pisces, soâŚI get it). When it comes to your sex language, you want your partner to just get âyouâ. You donât want to have to explain or talk or direct, youâd rather just receive and give a special type of unconditional love that knows no bounds. Because of this âboundless loveâ, you may actually, literally, lack boundaries. This doesnât have to be a bad thing, so we are going to focus on the positive. You are truly accepting of those who are accepting of you. Because Pisces is a mutable sign, you are willing to fit into whatever box your partner wants to put you inâŚand you receive great pleasure from making a deep seeded fantasy of your partner come true. You could be just as playful and imaginative when it comes to role-playing as a Gemini.
Because Mars is in Pisces or the 12H, youâll find that a lot of partners will project their wishes and dreams onto you. Hence why you want a love that is really deep, because people can get washed away in the shallow end of your energy without ever fully realizing how deep your waters flow. This can be frustrating. And because Mars isnât the most comfortable here, you can have some unhealthy ways of expressing your sexual frustration. Particularly if your Mars is in the 12H, you can be attracted to self-gratification through self-pleasure and also self-harm. You may even conflate the two, harm & pleasure, and have a dark side to your sexual fantasies. Your passions and desires can end up being repressed because people may not understand them, or be able to meet your high expectations. Amd babes, I love you, but just know, your expectations out of partnership are OTHERWORLDLY. But no worries!! You are SUPER DUPER freaky and almost a guaranteed partner that will go down in history books, particularly after you get comfortable in your own sensuality.
One of the things to watch out for with this Mars, is you can be passive-aggressive in the bedroom. You can take a more passive role, expecting and energetically demanding that your partner take the lead. You may not realize you even give off this energy, but the internal need that you have to dissolve into your partner, like sugar into water, can be very intense. And the gag is, sugar doesnât really fully dissolve, so what youâre seeking can be impossible to satisfy on the earthly plane. Because of this, it is IMPERATIVE for you to have spiritual outlets within your sexual connections. It may be that you and your partner practice Tantra, or you simply pray together. With this Mars, you can absolutely use sex as a tool for manifestation. Watch your thoughts during sex, because you truly can create MAGIK!
Mars in Aquarius or Mars in the 11th House
âI believe in aliens, I donât believe in loveâ Familiarity by Teezo Touchdown
If your natal Mars is in Aquarius or the 11th House, you are something special. Why? Because out of all the signs, you are the most unique lover. I KNOW!!! How frigginâ cliche, Aquarius=Unique, blah blah blahâŚboring. YES! Itâs said all the time, but itâs the truth. In Vedic Astrology, it is important to note that Aquarius is ruled by Saturn and Rahu. This is hugely impactful as to why you are unlike anyone else. Even as you read this, you wonât be exactly like the next person reading this, because the Saturn Rahu combination can be influenced by so many different factors. Aquarians are the hardest sign to write for in general, simply because you are going to be very individualist when it comes to how you express yourself. Now, all that being said, you still crave, very deeply, a sense of belonging. So please, donât ever take for granted how special you are. If someone is lucky enough to break through your hard exterior, they really are in for an extraterrestrial experience!
Because Mars is in an air sign here, you may or may not be the most sensual and/or sexual person on the planet. You could be. But you could not be. And that is the giftâŚor curseâŚof this Mars placement. I have Mars in Aquarius myself, and I remember reading an article that said âthis placement can be infuriating to your partner because you are so nonchalant.â And I can definitely say Iâve lost relationships because the other party assumed I was disinterested because I wasnât the most expressive when it came to my emotions. Itâs important to remember that Mars in Aquarius/11H is actually a neutral placement. It isnât a death sentence or the worst thing on the planet, but itâs not necessarily the best. So donât be too hard on yourself if your partners donât understand you very easily. You will just have to do more work to learn how to communicate and accommodate in your relationships. This may be something that follows you throughout lifeâŚand forget your partnerâŚ.it could be infuriating to you! BUT NO WORRIES! Mars in Aquarius or Mars in the 11th house is usually more concerned with developing and nurturing friendships, which seems to contradict the more lustful side of Mars. Longing for friendship and connection versus longing for sensual pleasure and connection can be seen as two different things.
What Mars in Aquarius/11H wants more than anything is L. O. Y. A. L. T. Y. Because this Mars placement can grant so much freedom, it is imperative for the person with this placement to feel safe and secure in the sexual relationship they are building. This is NOT to be confused with possession. Expecting loyalty from a partner isnât the same as feeling as if you own your partner. You believe that your partner should have freedom to express and live their life the way they want to, and you expect the same in return. However, you do expect your partner to consider you when they make their decisions in life. It is very much âgive a dog a bone, leave a dog alone, let a dog roam and heâll find his way homeâ (S/o DMX, may he rest in peace). Meaning, in your sexual language, you want your space and privacy, but you want to feel a belonging no matter how far away you are from your partners.
NOW, for the fun stuff. You are one of the most explorative lovers on the planet. You may have a âthe more the merrierâ type attitude and be interested in group smexii time or oragies. You may have a dream to experience Amsterdam and the Red Light District. The beauty in having your Mars in an air sign/house is that you can remain detached from the sexual experience and partnerâ therefore, you may not experience jealousy because you arenât super possessive. Again, youâre all about freedom baby!!! You may also have some pretty âfar-outâ kinks. You may be interested in different genders, or same gender, or mix gender or no gender or latex or pantyhoes or dress up or furries or hentai or tentacle pornâŚ.and if youâre not into it, chances are you will at least click a questionable link or two. You donât carry the same shame as others do when it comes to what turns you on sexually. You donât like anything boring or too routine, so your search history could be a bitâŚoddâŚ.BUT HEY!!! As long as itâs not hurting anyone or anything and pleasure is being derived from all parties involved, then let adults do what adults do is kind of your attitude.
Friendship is the key to your heartâŚand to yourâŚuhâŚbiological boxâŚ.lol. When it comes to long-term relationships, I can bet my bottom dollar that youâre far more interested in the friendship aspects than the inherent relationship drama. When your friends ask âwhy are you still dealing with themâ, you will follow up with âwell, we are friends before anything else.â And you mean that deeply. The really funny thing isâŚon the other hand, you are also very likely to get down with complete strangers and never think about it again. You can hook-up and detach with the best of them, or your loyalty to a confidant can keep you in a relationship for a very long timeâŚit. Just. depends.
The one thing that is true about your sex language, is that you speak ALL different kinds. When you look back at your life and your experiences, if you are more of an adventurous Aquarian, lets say you have a lot of air and fire in your chart, you will most likely have all kinds of stories from all different people and places. You will be one of the most interesting partners and friends to talk to about all the mixed bags of experiences that youâve had..which is awesome. If your Mars in Aquarius/11H is paired with a more âearthyâ sign or even water, you will most likely have a rom-com type love thing happeningâŚthat tugging âwill they/wonât theyâ energy at the beginning of relationships, only to fall head over heals with the âguy/gal next doorâ. You may also find your sexual partners online, in a group setting or be hooked up by natural friends. âHowâd you meet?â âOh, I heard from a friend of a friend that that d*ck is a ten out of ten!â
Mars in Capricorn or Mars in the 10th House
âMy vicious love, My lethal heart, I wanna screw you up into meâ - Bad Bad Bad by Ramsey
If your natal Mars is in Capricorn or in the 10th House, then your sexual language is money, moneyâŚandâŚ.uhâŚ.more money. I kid, I kidâŚbut not really. It would be easy and predictable for me to say you just lust after money, but it goes much deeper than that. Believe it or not, Mars is actually exalt in Capricorn, so, you couldnât have a better Mars placement. Your natural ruler Saturn and Mars truly are the best of friends. And if youâre familiar with Tarot, then you know The Devil represents Capricorn energy and The Devil is all about seduction and temptation. Unlike some of the more dreamy Mars placements like Pisces/12H or Cancer 4H that use their sexual language as an escape from reality, or the detached air placements like Gemini/3H or Aquarius/11H, who are too aloof to harness Marsâ energy, YOU my Capricorn/10H individuals are acutely aware of how powerful the nature of sex can beâŚand most importantly, how it can be used to your advantage.
To the average person on the street, you may not seem like the super sexual type. You prefer a sophisticated lover to a âcuteâ one, so people can assume that your standards are too high. And perhaps, your standards are high, because you understand the value of your presence and your time. In fact, you HATE wasting time, so why would you waste time on lovers who donât bring anything to the table? Sadly, for most of the public, they wonât ever have the experience to be with a Capricorn/10H Mars because quite frankly, they canât afford it.
Funnily enough, Iâm sure as youâve been reading this, youâre like âdangâŚam I that shallow?â And the answer is yes and no. Youâre shallow because we live in a shallow worldâ and you know in order to survive it, you have to use what you got to get what you want. The other side of this is, youâre not shallow at all because you are willing to work and discipline yourself and sacrifice for those that you truly care about. There is such a depth to you in the long run, that it makes sense that you make it really difficult for people to get to you. Because you know and I know, once youâve committed to someone, youâve committed for as long as you possibly can. Your sexual language is all about stamina and endurance. This is true in and and out of the bedroom. As an earth sign/house, you are a sensual being. You enjoy each and every bit of romance that you can get. A nice meal, some good perfume, dressed to the nines is all considered foreplay to you. You entice your partners with a certain dignified class and only the brave will approach. In your younger years, you could find this extremely frustrating at times because men will really have to get their sh*t together before they can even THINK to approach you on that level. But the more that you use your Mars to get you where you want to be in life, partners will follow behind you and constantly buzz around as if you are the Queen Bee and they are mere workers for your attention.
Funnily enough, you are quite the heart-breaker with this Mars placement. Because you are so focused on your goals outside of love, and yet, you can crave sensual pleasures, you will be very direct with a partner, but they may not be aware of how serious you take yourself. How can this manifest? Letâs say you meet a partner and everything is groovy, but you are working on a big project for work, youâre working on a degree of some kind, or youâve said you wonât rest until you make partner at the big companyâŚunlike other Mars placements, you wonât let romance sway you or take you off track. You are probably the best example of âright person, wrong timeâ. You donât have as much of an issue as other signs walking away from a situation that is distracting you from your more worldly desires. This can leave people utterly confused, because you seem like a perfect partner, but honestly, youâre just not focused on aaaalll the drama that can come with fully committed relationships. People may actually take this energy and say that youâre a playerâŚor worseâŚa floozy (one of my favorite words lol, definitely needs to make a comeback). You actually arenât. You will be one of the most committed partners they could find, but if itâs not the right timeâŚit just ainât happening. So your partners will have to maintain some level of patience or they will miss out. On the other hand, because Mars is a planet of extremes, you may go through periods in life where you are celebate. It may take you awhile to stop channeling that Martian ambitious energy into your career and put it towards your sexuality. That being said, you will enjoy the more sensual side of sex. You could have great stamina and endurance. Because sex may not come around as often as youâd like, you will learn to savor every drop of your partners and please them in a calculated, thoughtful and masterful way! How smeeexxxiiiiiii!!!!!
Mars in Sagittarius or Mars in the 9th House
âIâve been everywhere, man, looking for someone. Someone who can please me, love me all night longâ Where Have You Been by Rihanna
If your natal Mars is in Sagittarius or the 9th House, your sexual language is that of many languages. You fall in love with the exotic, unknown and unexplored. You like your partners like James Bond likes his carsâ foreign. You appreciate partners who expand your understanding of reality. Your partners have to expand your mindâŚand bodyâŚinto positions that you never thought were possible. If you donât attract partners who are of a different race, culture or class from you, then you will be attracted to partners who are otherworldly and spiritual or are just as serious about their religious beliefs as you are. Like Mars in Pisces/12H, your planet is ruled by the planet Jupiter, aka Guru. You NEED to learn from your partner. You NEED to explore with your partner. And you NEED to be able to teach your partners something as well. âI wanna knowâŚcan you show meâŚI wanna know about the strangers like meâ...Itâs givingâŚTarzan and Jane. I have Mars in the 9th House, and it has manifested in a very fun way! So with my bias, I believe that this can be one of the more fun placements if you just go with the flow. Unlike other Mars placements, you donât necessarily feel the need to control your partners. Youâd much rather experience them, learn the lesson and move on to the next new shiny thing. Much like your brother, Gemini, you are equally as invested in getting the knowledge and seeking more knowledge. You of all signs are unlikely to overstay your welcome in a relationship. You can come off quite restless and unsatisfiedâŚUNLESS you are just fascinated and enamored with an individual.
You can find yourself attracted to people who have accents, or speak a different language than you. But you will be even more turned on by someone who shares the same religious beliefs as you. You may actually be willing to convert religions for your partner OR, and this is more likely, you have a partner who is a different religion than you are, and instead of being ashamed by it, or making it an obstacle, you embrace itâ ultimately respecting their religion, while maintaining the traditions of your own.
You will naturally desire to travel with your partner. Making some of your favorite memories in life when you made-love in some far off land. If the sentence, âI made love to a Frenchman I met while eating a baguette at the local cafe under the Eiffel tower and Iâll never see him again, but heâs the love of my lifeâ turns you onâŚcongratulations, youâre in the right spot.
This Mars placement is fueled by your deepest desire to see the world and its deepest truth, and then just imagine how much you can learn about the world through the lens of an intimate partner. Your sexual language, like I said earlier, involves language in and of itself. You want to hear the stories of distants lands, fascinated by the foreign nature of your divine counterpart. You will want to be intimate with partners who can speak for hours and hours about their adventures and endeavors. You need to be intrigued at the very least.
I also find that with this placement, there may be an age difference in your relationships. You either will be attracted to someone who is much older and wiser, OR, interesting enough, you could find yourself with someone younger. Why is this? You will appreciate a person who still has zest for life. You will be equally attracted to partners who are bright eyed and bushy tailed! Plus, I know Iâve talked a lot about your partner entertaining and teaching you, but the truth of the matter is, you will want to be as much of a sage to your partner as well. You will enjoy teaching them the ways of life and the pursuit of happiness. They will look to you with eyes of wonder as you paint beautifully vivid pictures of your life experiences that have shaped your view of the world.
Another element to this Mars placement, is you are one to challenge authority. This may manifest in your sex language by liking to explore BDSM culture in some way. Because this Mars is all about freedom, you may be turned on by the thought of your partner controlling youâŚjust so you can say no. You can come off as a âwell, make meâ...kind of lover when it comes to foreplay. You love a challenge and you like partners who challenge you in some way when it comes to living out your sexual fantasies. Another way this may come out is you AND your partner may have a knack for getting into trouble or enjoying sex with some kind of risk involved. You get off being able to sneak away for a quickie. Youâll have sex in the backseat of a car. Joining the mile club is definitely on your bucket listâŚall the things! Because you are such a rebel, you tell stories that have ânormiesâ clutching their pearls and leave their mouths open. You want to have memorable sex that is worth writing a book about!!!
I can not drive home enough how spiritual your sexual relationships have the potential to be. You are not a shallow lover. You are a lover full of wonder and full of lustâŚwanderlustâŚif you will. Sagittarius/9H is a very serious zodiac/house. You're destined to seek truthâ so your sexual partners HAVE to enlighten you in some way. You donât want to get stuck in the mundane, boring stuff of a relationship, (and please, donât get too carried away, because we do live on planet earth!) you want to experience shrooms, talk about God and make love in the forest! Smexxiiii!!!!
Mars in Scorpio or Mars in the 8th House
âEvery breath you take, every move you make, every smile you fake, every single day, Iâll be watching youâ Every Breath You Take by Sting
Okay, okay, it would be all too easy to say your love language is stalking, and more stalking and even more stalking, butâŚthatâs only a small fraction of what this Mars placement has to offer. If your natal Mars is placed in Scorpio or in your 8th House, your sexual language is that of raw passion and intensity. That being said, it is also about restraint and self-restriction, and sometimes self destruction. I tend to find Scorpionic energy and 8H energy to be radically internal. You, actually, may not be the most expressive lover. You are more comfortable waiting, studying and planning to pursue a lover, rather than going in full force. Because Mars is your natural ruler, Mars is more than comfortable here, but unlike your brother sign, Aries, you are more of the âplanningâ part of war, rather than action. This is the strategy of self-defense more than anything. You donât want to walk into an intimate situation to be intimate yourself, you want to extract vulnerability from your partner like a detective solving a murder crime. Your sex language is more of a riddle than a question. And you would like a partner who intrigues you and leaves a lot of mystery. In my many many years of dating, and many many encounters with Scorpionic energy (I attract them like fliesâŚitâs crazy) I always find that Scorpios are nowhere near as mysterious or hard to figure out as they perceive. Behind all that black and dark stares and gazed is usually a pretty pretty boring, but shy person. There is such a caution with this sign when it comes to acting on those very deep and sometimes all consuming desires, so you are very careful to not put yourself in harm's way. Another hot take that I have on this placement that may seem a bit contradictory to the Scorpionic stereotype is YES YES YES, you are smexxxxiiii and all of the things, but that doesnât necessarily make you the most sexual person. You take intimacy and sexy very seriously, more seriously than most, because for you intimacy and vulnerability can be used against you and be seen as a weakness, so you are hard pressed to just be going around willy-nilly swinging from partner to partner. You also view sex/intimacy as more of a âpowerâ thing than a âloveâ thing. And what do I mean by that? You know that deep intimacy and truly being intertwined with another individual gives you an unreal amount of access to that person on a personal and spiritual level. It is always important to remember where Scorpio/8H lines up in the grand scheme of things. It follows the Libra/7H of partnership. The 8H is actually the house that dictates how a relationship will play out. This. Is. Imperative. To understand this placement. You are far more focused on how the partnership plays out, rather than the partnership itself. Again, unlike your predecessor, Libra, who is ruled by Venus and may be more interested in the looks of a relationship and romantic partner. Your sexual language is more interested in the psychology of your partner. You donât care nearly as much about the outside as you do the inside. What draws you to your partner is a need to access the ultimate truths through your partners. Hence why, you are followed by Sagittarius/9H of Truth and Liberation. Your sex language involves restraint, power and hidden truths.
As I said before, it may be really difficult for you at times to truly connect with your partners because your energy can demand sooooo much from them. You will require partners to go through such depths in their relationship with you, that they may not be able to handle it. And on the other side of that, you may stay away from relationships because you may mistakenly feel like it brings out some of your âworstâ qualities. With this Mars, you may go through a very intense relationship when youâre young, one where you give your all, I meanâŚyou would kill or be killed for those you love, and because that relationship fails, you may never want to experience those types of lows again and stay away. You are one of the most loyal of the Mars placements, so you are very careful to study who exactly you are giving your loyalty to. I recommend with this placement, you may find yourself oddly attracted to Aquarian/11H energy. It sounds weird, water and air, but in this case, Aquarian energy is endlessly fascinating because they are so unorthodox, you will never truly figure them out, so youâre constantly intrigued by them. Aquarians also value loyalty the same way you do. They will allow you the freedom that you need to sit in your own emotions, but value the friendship in such a way, you wonât feel abandoned by them. Even if the people you are attracted to donât have Aquarius in their chart, I think that quality is something you should consider when looking into intimate partners. It is probably the partner who gives you the most space and it is the hardest to figure out, that will give you the most in life. If you have a partner that is easy to conquer, not only will you be bored, but you can easily slip into those darker energies of control and manipulation to get you wayâŚeven when itâs unnecessary.
AAALLLL that said, you are still a hell of a lover! I meanâŚwow. You intricately know how to please and conquer. You use sex as a language itself when youâre ready and willing. And man, do you have a way with words. You can easily hypnotize a lover to fall under your command, so be careful with this gift. You are more than comfortable in this arena once you move past your fears in the subconscious. You can channel this energy, much like the exalt Mars in Capricorn to succeed with some of your greatest ambitions. You will put your sexual energy into your work and projects in a way like no other! Just donât take everything so seriously! Itâs okay to have a good time. Be intimate and open up some! Youâll enjoy getting your head out of the sand!
Mars in Libra or Mars in the 7th House
âWhat a rush & what a high, cause when your love donât fight, smoke gets in your eyesâ Smoke In Your Eyes by Skepta, Ossie, Harry Stone
If you came to this section thinking that I was going to talk about how sweet and balanced you are when it comes to your sexual languageâŚTHINK. AGAIN. BABE. You are nothing of the sort. Seems contradictory, huh? Because Libra/7H is all about balance, right? WellâŚnot when it comes to this Mars placement.
If you have your natal Mars in Libra or the 7th House, you are quite the spicy lover. To be completely honest, Mars is VERY uncomfortable here. Why? Because Libra is naturally ruled by the planet Venus, which is essentially the opposite frequency of Mars. I like to think of Mars and Venus as the brother and sister planets of the Milky way. Traditionally ruled by Ares and Aphrodite in Greek mythology respectively, they are technically half-siblings. So when you think of this Mars placement, this of how a girlie-girl would feel surrounded by all boys at a football camp. Sure, she may attract a lot of attention and she may have plenty of optionsâŚbut she will CERTAINLY have to set clear boundaries to command the respect she deserves, as well as deal with the fact that no one around her may have the same interest. See how this can be uncomfortable? Itâs not the worst thing to happen, but it can cause you to feel like you have to play the field a little bit differently because of Mars being in the House of Libra.
Okay, so now that we covered why this placement might be different than what you were imagining, letâs get into what this post is actually about!
If you have this natal placement, your sex language is all about breaking up to make-up. Because youâre on this constant quest of seeking balance, YOU will subconsciously or consciously seek chaos in order to regain balance. Your indecisive and somewhat aloof nature in relationships can be a source of frustration when it comes to your sexual expression with your lovers. If you have Mars in your 7H, you genuinely LOVE conflicts and attract conflicts to your relationships. You can be quite passive aggressive, honestly, and stir the pot to get attention. AAALLLL this being said, you still enjoy the finer things and love the idea of love, even though you may not have the most direct way of going about it. Your partners may even find you hard to read, and this can frustrate you, because your wishy-washy-ness is so innate to you, you may have a tendency to think that everyone is as back and forth with decision making as you are.
Ironically, more so than any of the previous placements I have discussed before, I will focus more on what sexual language you like from your partner rather than yourself. Of course, you like good food, good wine, good clothes, good banter, good companyâŚyou have Libra, like DUH, but I want to offer a different perspective on this placement.
So when it comes to your partners, you truly like a partner who takes charge, regardless of sex. You crave a level of masculinity and directness in your love language because as I stated earlier, it can be difficult for you to make decisions for yourself. You overemphasize how people will perceive you, and this can cause you to stunt your decision making, so youâll find yourself craving a partner who can be unabashedly unapologetic in their approach to life. You seek partners who are brave and courageous and you will find yourself testing anyone you fall in love with to see if they have that spark of passion in them. You may find yourself seeking different things from different people, so you may have multiple loversâ and just like how it may take you forever to pick out your outfit in the morning, it may take you forever to figure out what you value in a partner. It is important to note that Libra/7H energy is indeed a masculine energy. Iâm sure most would assume itâs feminine because of the âsophisticatedâ and charismatically social nature usually associated with Libras, but when it comes to sexual relationships, Taurus/2H energy is the feminine side of Venus. Libra energy in this way is more detached than people would think. As stated earlier, because you enjoy dates, chatting, getting to know people, you may be a really good casual dater! This could send mixed messages to potential lovers because you may have never really had any intention of dating them long-termâ or, you really just havenât decided yet. Now are we starting to see how this Mars placement can attract certain conflict? You will desire and crave a partner that can make decisions for you. This may lead to some kinkiness in the bedroom because youâre open to compromise and you can be bossed around in this regard.
Overall your sexual language is complex because of the inherent contradiction of this natal placement. You can make this work in your favor as long as you keep open communication with your partner, even if itâs to tell them that you need some more time before youâre comfortable making any lasting decisions. When you date, you will have to allow your partners to understand your up & down nature. Most people will probably take your pragmatic nature personally, so if you can find a way to channel this into being sexually playful with your lovers, it can be a great way to keep romance fun and interesting. As stated in the beginning, you are most likely to end up in an on-again-off-again kind of relationship because you like for the scales to be tipped, so you can rebalance them. You are far more detached in commitments than most people would assume, so it is essential for you to date like-minded people who understand that your coldness is not a reflection on your feelings. You choose to remain objective in your judgements and seek fairness in your relationshipsâeven if you are the one who was unfair to begin with! Kiss it kiss it better baby!!!!
Mars in Virgo or Mars in the 6th House
âI got commitment issues, but Iâm tryna fix that for youâŚI donât believe in love, but that doesnât mean I donât take you seriousâ Commitment Issues by Central Cee
With Mars in Virgo or the 6th House, you may be surprised to find how non-committal you are when it comes to relationships. Why? Because you find relationships to be impractical. So when it comes to your sexual language, you are quite all over the place. Lovers can find you hard to catch, almost like trying to keep a fairy in a jar. You prefer to flutter around and keep things light in the sexual department. To you, sex can scream responsibility. After all, sex can be a pretty risky and dirty affair. All the fluid exchange and, ultimately, the required vulnerability, can make you quite uneasy. With this Mars placement, you can go between the two extremes of putting too much emphasis on sex or not enough emphasis at all. This is due to the natural ruler of Virgo/6H being Mercury, which, I find to be, an asexual planet. You are more interested in the intellectual connection than the physical connection.
BUT PLEASE, donât get me wrong! You know youâre way around the bedroom. Your sexual language is constantly evolving. You do well with long-term partners that you can trust, study and get to know. You prefer a lover that is loyal, so you donât have to worry about where theyâve been, or better yet, who theyâve been with. You find joy in repetition with one partner. OR, you are really open to âprotectedâ one-night stands. You are either all in or all out. You donât like to waste time on sexual relationships that you donât see a return for a long-term investment. That being said, if you are unable to invest in the long-term, you can find yourself in a position of sexual frustration. You may really desire a person, but because of your deep need for perfection first, you may stall connections & find a lot of pleasure in masturbation for the time being. You, like your opposite sign, Pisces, can really get into your fantasies. You may find that erotica and romance novels can be great resources to pass the time while you likely toil between celibacy and being a whore (this is particularly funny to me because Virgos are known for being the Virgins of the zodiacâ hence the contradiction in Mars in Virgo. The planet of sex and desire ruled by a âVirginâ is, uhâŚ.a difficult juxtaposition to say the least.) â again, itâs all about mental stimulation with you.
When you do meet a partner that you can FINALLY settle down and feel comfortable with, you will be a very giving lover. Because Virgo energy is usually associated with servitude, you better believe that you will make it your duty to service the object of your affection. You care very deeply about the satisfaction of your partnerâ far more than you care about your own. As stated earlier, you donât mind finishing up solo as long as your partner is satisfied. You will find every nook and cranny, every deep desire, every love spot that your partner has, because you will analyze their body with astute detail. You will break your partnerâs sexual language down and adapt it to be your own, because after all, you are a mutable sign. As well as being an earth sign, you do have a very deep sensual nature to you. Although you can come across as quite guarded with new partners, once you blossom, you really enjoy heavy petting and physical touch. You can spend so much time in your head and alone with your thoughts in other aspects of your life, you may find it very powerful to have a partner that literally grounds you and brings you back to planet Earth by holding you in their arms. Again, after youâve bent over backwards (pun intended) to please your partner, you, more than any other sign, except maybe Leo, really needs to be acknowledged and celebrated for your hard work. You donât take kindly to being undervalued or under appreciated when it comes to your romantic relationships in this context.
Believe it or not, this placement can actually be quite kinky! Why? Because of the influence of Mercury again. As stated before, you want to learn your partnerâs as well as you possibly can to make sure you are seen as perfect in their eyesâ sooooo, that means youâll have some exploring to do. Mercury is such a curious planet, that it may not be kinky for the sensual pleasures of it all, but it will be interested in testing out sex & kinks for âresearch purposesâ. This can give you a sort of detached feeling when it comes to sex, which may or may not work in your favorâ youâre able to disassociate in a way that makes sex almost an out of body experienceâŚit may take you some time to actually feel pleasure from sex. You are so focused on the other and pleasing your partner, you can forget that sex is supposed to be a two way street! I just want to reiterate, that this placement is so mutable, that you may find yourself pretty ambivalent towards sex at different times in your life. Youâre kind of like âehâ. But there is hope, when you find a partner that lights your fireâ you will find yourself wanting sex like a child wants candy! There is plenty of potential here for a beautifully active and engaging sex lifeâ it just may take more time to develop than others.
Learn your own kinks! Have fun! Explore the more sensual side of life for yourself!
Anyone who is able to win you over (which is NOT an easy feat by any means) will be able to revel in the fact that you are such a wonderful lover! But donât forget, sex is not a test that you can get an A + in, itâs supposed to be the culmination and celebration of it all!
Mars in Leo or Mars in the 5th House
âShe may be the queen of hearts, but Iâm the queen of your body partsâ - Cockiness, Rihanna
If you have Mars in Leo or Mars in the 5th House, you are Britney Spears, all eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus, bay-bee. You LOVE to put on a show. Your sexual language can make love-making a spectacle! Youâre over the top, youâre loud, you roar. You LOVE LOVE LOVE the attention. So much so, you may not even need sex to fulfill that internal desire for you. Huh? What do I mean? I mean, you may be satisfied using your creative gifts for sexual gratification. Chances are with this placement, you are highly creative and charismatic. You find sensual pleasure in being able to share your creative gifts with other people. Havenât you heard of entertainers saying they had so much fun on stage, it was orgasmic? Thatâs where you come in.
Ironically, I donât naturally find this placement to be the most sexual. Donât get me wrong, you are DOWN DIGGITY for a good time, but you really use sex as an ego booster. You may even be quite lazy in the bedroom. You could easily live by the code âmy present is my presenceâ and be a dazzling pillow princess. This isnât a bad thing, and it definitely doesnât have to be the case all the time! When youâre turned on, youâre turned on, but when youâre just casually engaging in sex, or are in a long-term commitment, you may feel like sex is something that is owed to you. Not in a weird entitled way, but more like a Queen sitting on a chaise lounge being fed grapesâ like, âduh, you should have sex with me, Iâm beautifulâ, type energy. This, if you havenât been able to guess already, can lead to a selfish attitude in the love-making department. You must remember that sometimes, your partner wants to be catered to as well. That being said, you wonât shy away from Valentineâs Day. You are the type to go all out! Youâll put on the lingerie. Youâll lay out the rose petals on the bed. Youâll pay extra for that honeymoon suite. OR, you will expect your partner to do all of this without you asking. You treat holidays and sex as if itâs a royal affair.
Due to your standards being so high, I cannot express to you enough that you may really put all your sexual energy into your creative pursuits until you find a lover of high-value and high sex drive. You love and somewhat need to feel desired in order to break down your walls. You donât play hard to getâ you ARE hard to get, so this may leave you with extended periods of non-sexual activities. You are more than willing to give up sexual pleasure for your own personal pursuitsâ in fact, you are more likely to do that if you have specific career goals.
You may be a tad bit surprised at my interpretation of Mars in Leo, perhaps you were assuming it would be a bit spicier, but I challenge you to look at your ruler, the Sun (yes, the actual burning ball of fire in the sky) . Not literallyâŚwell, you can, but make sure you wear sun-glasses. But in all seriousness, the Sun shines alone. The Sun is too hot to let anything near it, and it carries such a gravitational pull, that things simply orbit around it, but can never get too close. With Mars in Leo/5th House, you may find yourself in this position when it comes to your sexual nature. You attract a lot of people towards you, but they are unable to get too close, for fear they will burn up in your presence. Or, you shine so bright, you are forced to do it alone. Being the Sun and the center of the Universe is a hard job, but ultimately an isolating job. Your being, your creative gifts, your star power and the way you shine can cast such a shadow on those who dare come near you. It really can be one of the most challenging placements because you probably wonât understand why people canât/donât come near you. Again, youâre just soooo great, people can have an overwhelming and unrealistic ideal of what it will take to make you happy. Itâs a double-edged sword. On one hand, itâs flattering, but on the other hand, you can suffer from being put so high up on a pedal stool that you never asked for!
One tip for you, is to keep your hair beautiful and lushes! People will be attracted to your wild side and want to bring that out of you. You can either really love having your hair pulled or be turned off by it because you spend so much time making it look perfect. Either way, your hair may be an essential part of foreplay for you and something that suitors may find undeniably sexy.
As long as you are mindful to share the spotlight from time to time and not always prioritizing your needs & your desires, you can be a remarkably loyal partner. Fierce is the word that comes to mind and you can be very fierce in the bedroom. (When you want to be.) You can outshine any of the competition. Most people truly canât hold a candle to you when it comes to how committed you are in an intimate relationship. You are proud and you protect those that are around you and that you deem worthy. You have a royal air that surrounds you and it loudly and proudly screams `bow down bitches' when it's time to get down and dirty!
Mars in Cancer or Mars in the 4th House
âLet me kiss you hard in the pouring rain, you like your girls insaneâ Born to Die- Lana Del Rey
If you have Mars in Cancer or Mars in the 4th house, ironically, your sex language involves a knack of overwhelming emotional destruction. Dramatic, yes, yes, I know, but very true. Mars is VERY uncomfortable in the deep waters of Cancer/4H. Mars in the 4th House, in particular, is a naturally difficult placement because it sits in the House of happiness, as well as aspects the 7th House of partnership and the 11th House of friendshipâ making that native, uh, a little difficult to deal with. Why? Because your emotions can be so erratic and illogical, it can be difficult for people to understand what you want. Heck, you probably donât understand what you want most of the time. I promise Iâll get to the good stuff, but keep in mind that this Mars placement is in detriment! (Itâs exalted in Capricorn, the opposite sign.) So when it comes to your sexual language, you value such a deeply emotional commitment from your partner, you could constantly try to test them by pushing their emotional boundaries.
There is a mixture of pleasure and pain. You love an emotional outburstâ this can be good and sexy, or bad and scary. Emotionally bonding make-up sex, is your cup of teaâŚESPECIALLY if you are the one who caused the âbreak-upâ in the first place. You truly enjoy engaging with your partner in a loving way, when you can, but because Mars is so unstable here, it can be hard for you to maintain emotional consistency within long-term relationships. You can find that your passions wax and wane for your partner. Sometimes, you just want to run into their arms and kiss them in the pouring rain, other times, you want them to LEAVE YOU DAFUQ ALONE. This can be quite jarring to your intimate partners, but also to yourself. I recommend embracing this quality and being as honest as possible! Instead of literally creating a sh*t storm in order to be left alone, just communicate to your partner that you need a little space from time to time. But also be willing to give your partner that same courtesy and grace if they ask for the same.
You can feel a need to wrap yourself up in your partner's desires. It may come from a genuine place, but because Mars is an aggressive planet, you may be quite aggressive in how you demonstrate your love to your partner because your deepest desire is to be able to emotionally control them. This can manifest in an extremely emotionally manipulative way through passive aggressiveness and just causing overall uneasiness within your dynamics and partnerships. One of the lovely sides about this particular placement, is when you mature, you can have an extremely high emotional I.Q. Because you are naturally very sensitive to your surroundings, you can literally sense the emotional and physical needs of your partner without them having to say a word. You can be so emotionally intune with your lovers, it can feel like telepathy if they need anything from you. You just know, yâknow?
In the bedroom, you can go from one extreme to another. Sometimes you want to be dominant, and sometimes you want to be dominated. It is important for your lovers to be able to ride your waves and learn what is needed from them at any given moment. Again, Mars is all about conquest. So when Mars is in the 4H in particular, you want to be able to be the leader in your home, but you also want someone who can take the reins when necessary. Again, this can be a difficult balance to strike within your sexual relationships because people may not understand the method behind the madness, typically because there really isnât a methodâŚitâs just kind of madness AND THATâS OKAY!
Because Mars is so uncomfortable here, it is imperative for you to be able to channel your energy in creative ways or you can fall victim to your own emotional tirades. You want a clear line of communication with anyone you are interested with and they absolutely need to have some emotional intelligence or else they will drown in your water. You donât want to suffocate your lovers with so much emotional intensity, that you both are unable to remain somewhat grounded in the chaos. You of all people understand just how powerful emotions and sex can be together, so be careful to use it wisely!!! When done right, you can have anyone wrapped around your finger.
Mars in Gemini or Mars in the 3rd House
âTalk is cheap my darling, when youâre feeling right at home. I wanna make you move with confidence. I want to be with you aloneâ Talk is Cheap by Chet Faker
If you have Mars in Gemini or Mars in the 3rd House, then you are all about an intellectual connection when it comes to your sexual language. You want to catch viiibbbeezzz. You want to be razzle-dazzled with the lingo. You want someone hip, cool, in the knowâŚbecause, well, youâre hip, cool & in the know, yâknow? Itâs only fitting that your partner be the same. You, of all placements, may truly crave âyour other halfâ. And I know, I know, we live in a world now, where people are saying âyou are a whole person and youâre looking for another whole person yadayadayadaâŚâ, but youâre a TWIN. You want to be able to connect with someone as if you share the same brain, the same thoughts, the sameâŚeverything. This isnât to say that youâre not sexualâŚyou just enjoy mental jousting for foreplay. Think of how beautiful the dance between two evenly matched fencing partners isâ the ebb and flow of tension â playing both parts of the aggressor and the defenderâ gliding almost effortlessly with a weapon in hand. Itâs like the tangoâŚbut with swords. Thatâs how you envision your love. Beautiful art, yet dangerous. You may not be the most sensual lover at first, but in time you will certainly warm up. Why? Because at the very least, you are a curious partner! You. Want. To. Explore. You may be the type of lover to want to try almost anything once. You want to be surprised. You donât want your bedroom to be boring. You resent repetitiveness and you welcome new experiences. You may even fall into the âswitch my wig, make âem feel like he cheatingâ category. You like to switch up your look, your styleâŚsexual positions (lol). This can even translate into role play! (Especially teacher/student).
I cannot express to you enough how much learning from your partner turns you on. You love asking questions & consider getting to know someone a conquest. The more difficult the puzzle, the more you yearn to solve it and this type of stimulation oozes over into your sexual pleasure. Youâre curious to know what your loverâs love. You can have an objective perception of sex, because you arenât the most naturally emotional person, so you can look at the love making process as getting to know every nook and cranny of a partnerâs bodyâ learning what makes them tick & âickâ. You become more emotionally open with a partner, the more confident that you are that you know them. You like learning, but you donât like unpleasant surprises. This may be counter intuitive, but I find that after you go through your âlemme try any & everything eraâ, you will genuinely enjoy one partner. It will make you feel secure and like you have that missing piece in life. You donât come across as the most committal type, but when you do commit, you commit fr fr, you just need a certain level of freedom in life to continue to expand your horizons far past the mundane in life.
Another element you may add to your sexual reservoir isâŚâŚdrugs. âDONâT DO DRUGS, KIDS & STAY IN SCHOOLâ...alright, there is my disclaimer. Now back to what I was saying, you may be curious to try mind-expanding drugs & smex. Because you can be so cerebral, drugs like ecstacy can help you actually feel your body. The tingle will start from your subconscious mind, and venture into your conscious body, possibly making love-making a more pleasurable experience. If this doesnât interest you, donât worry, no pressure! Just making a note that this placement is more likely to think outside of the box when it comes to making their sex lives thrilling and exciting! Not saying that vanilla sex is boringâŚjust saying in general. You do you!
Overall, this is a curious placement. Itâs a fun placement, but it can be an extremely flighty placement in the beginning. Donât let your fear of getting stuck, stop you from finding a true partner that you can really see the world with. You can find that âother halfâ, that âtwin soulâ that really knows how to light a fire in you and warm your cold cold cold gemini heart. In your moments of passion, you will prefer to keep things fun and light. Only when someone truly captures your mind, can they capture your body and soul! SEXYYYYYY!!!!
Mars in Taurus or Mars in the 2nd House
âPeople stop to ask me, how do you please your man? Take it from the black sheep baby, any way I can. Sometimes itâs with fire and sometimes, with iceâŚJust donât get it twisted, his bodyâs gunna pay the price.â
- Rock My Boyâs Body by Joseph Stephens
If you have Mars in Taurus or Mars in the 2nd House your sexual language is about sensuality, sexuality, & seduction. You believe in making love an all encompassing experience and you will stop at nothing to make sure your partners have an all exclusive pass to your BO-DAY. IF it is earned. Because Taurus is naturally slow moving energy, you may be slow to open up. As Iâve studied astrology for years nowâŚIâve come to realize that Taurus energy is just as private and cautious and itâs opposite sign, Scorpio. If you have this placement, you feel the need to study your lovers and you wait and wait and wait and wait and wait before you make your move. But if you are able to wrap them in your warm embraceâŚyou wonât want to let go and they wonât want you to either.
Like Leo, when it comes to your sexual language, you believe in putting on a show. But your show is subtle, quaint and slow burning. You will have the candles burning, the scented lotion and fresh out the shower smell, you will have the most luxurious sheets on the most comfortable mattress. You donât believe in cutting corners when it comes to your comfort and whoever is lucky enough to wind up in your bed, simply gets to enjoy how you live your life. I could bet you have an impeccable taste in music and truly know how to set the tone when it comes to seduction. As stated before, you are able to create a world of pure pleasure for those you love and make them spell-bound to you, because chances are, they havenât been able to match with a sexual partner who cares so much about the details of ALL 6 senses. (Iâm including intuition because, yâknow, Iâm a tarot and an astrology girlie.) For example, I dated this guy with heavy taurus placements a few years ago. I very much remember and very much miss this awesome TV room that he made for himself. Instead of having a regular degular couch, he had a couch that was also a bed. It wasnât a couch that converted into a bedâŚ.it was just a couch that had a bed in itâŚand massive 70 inch television mounted on the wall. When I TELL you, I wanted to marry that man becauseâŚ.UGH!!! I was so comfortable! I could melt into the floor when I was with him. And I have YET to be with anyone who has a room set up quite like that. The feeling has stayed with me long after we have been together. THAT is what I mean by the power of Mars in Taurus. It lingers when youâre done!
On the other side, you of all signs, can be extremely jealous and possessive over your sexual partners. You DO NOT LIKE TO SHARE. AT. ALL. The 2nd House is all about owning and possessions and you may take this mindset with you into your romantic relationships. To the right person and in a healthy way, this can be enduring and make your partner feel safe and secure in your presence. In turn, you also want to know that your partner is crazy about you and cares deeply about your well-being. Again, in a healthy dynamic, a little jealousy and possessivness isnât bad. It can show that someone does have an interest in you and takes pride in the fact that they are able to claim you as their own. This is just something to be mindful of in this placement, because if underdeveloped, it can lead to issues of selfishness & strong resistance to allow your partnerâs freedom. Of course this can bleed over into the bedroom as well. You donât want to get so focused on your own comfort that you end up putting your partner into a routine that they no longer enjoy. Your favorite position may not be their favorite positive. It can feel like eating lobster every single day. Like, yeah, Lobster is great day 1, maybe even day 2, but by day 5âŚ.yuck. Depending on other placements in your chart, you may attract partners who are very much like you, in the sense they prefer routine, OR you may attract partners who are so wild and out of the box, it forces you out of your comfort zone. All I can do is say embrace whatever floats your boat.
There is no doubt that you are one of the most sexual, sensual and passionate lovers of the zodiac. Your innate knowledge of pleasure makes you an expert in the bedroom and you can be hard to beat. Although it may take you a while to warm up, either physically or emotionally, you eventually show your partners that it is absolutely worth the wait! Because you tend to be safe and secure in yourself (the 2nd house rules self esteem) you share that safety and extend your protection to those you love the most. Your sexual language is unforgettable. You know how to love someone head to toe! WOOOOO!!!
Mars in Aries or Mars in the 1st House
âDollhouse, dressed up, perfect messed up, Torture me to sleep, paint the air I breathe. Fishbowl, chokehold, dirty water, Iâm cold. Dirty as can be, have your way with me.â Dollhouse (with Lily Rose Depp) by The Weeknd
If you have Mars in Aries or Mars in the 1st House, your sexual language is intense & powerful. You have a way of pulling people into your orbit just by being your unapologetic self! The force is with you! Best believe! And people feel it. You get what you want and you want what you get and you have a way of luring in your prospective sexual partner by projecting your lust onto themâ so much so they feel it when they walk by you. Much like your sister, the Mars ruled Scorpio, there is a carnal desire that surrounds you. Itâs magnetic. Itâs magnificent. And itâs very fleeting.
When it comes to your bedroom pleasures, you can be a pioneer of the âWham! Bam! Thank you maâam orâŚsirâ (not as cute of a rhyme) mindset. You may have a habit of treating your lovers like conquestâ wanting to overpower them and wrap them up in your passionate fantasies. You deeply enjoy power play in your sex life. Yes, you could easily be the dominant one in your relationships, BUT you could also seek refuge in being submissive to your partner. How? I know it seems contradictory. But chances are, with this placement (unless itâs in a water sign in your first house) you are more than likely the boss and the leader in your everyday lifeâŚso when it comes to sex, you may want to just ârelaxâ and let your partner do all the hard work for once. If thatâs the case, you may be a bit of a brat in the bedroom because you still like to challenge your partner for shizz & giggles, but you are certainly fun and definitely unforgettable.
Your sex language is raw and real. You donât like to hold back your passion and you appreciate a partner who can match your enthusiasm in the bedroom. You love the runner chaser dynamic, and again, you can easily play both parts. You are strong and competitive and donât like to lose the interest of your lovers, even though you can get bored pretty easily. You may prefer quickies over long drawn up love sessions, but that doesnât mean you donât like to indulge your sinuses from time to timeâ youâre just not one of the most lovey dovey of the zodiac and prefer loud, wild, hot, steamy sex opposed to soft caresses and whispers of sweet nothings. You may also be a person who uses sexy time to advance a certain agenda. You could use sex as a tool of manipulation to get what you want. That may seem extreme, but think about a stripper using her sensuality as a means to make money so she can pay her way through law school. THATâS what I mean. Because you may not be so shy about your sex appeal, if used correctly, it can be your weapon of choice when it comes to getting what you want from someone.
Passion matters to you more than most. You would prefer a risky lover than a predictable one. You also may be a fan of the oleâ break up to make-up trope. Make-up sex is always better. And you donât mind starting a fight in the streets, simply to uhâŚyou knowâŚend itâŚ.in the sheetsâŚ..if you catch my drift. You arenât one for subtleties. You are probably one of the most straightforward and upfront people in the world and you may play shy, but once you allow a person to get to know you, you donât hold anything back. Because you are a cardinal energy, you always have a childlike flair to you! You keep things interesting and youthful. Youâre not afraid to cross boundaries and push the limits of yourself & your partner in the midst of a sexual act. You really may think that sex is something that can be âwonâ. You want to be the best. You want to be the one that lovers canât get enough of. You donât appreciate being compared to others and honestly hear partners talking about their past as if it was some sort of challenge. You definitely have a jealous and possessive streak, but like I always say, when this is a healed energy it can be enduring to the right partner. As long as itâs not obsessive and unhealthy, you can provide comfort to your lovers that you are there for them and only them. You expect loyalty in return, of course, but you donât mind protecting and defending what you see as your own. Your love is real. Your love is honest. Your love is young and wild and free!

Old Man
Pairing: Joel Miller x f!reader
Summary: Joel needs glasses but won't admit it, and there's only an amount of teasing a man can take before he decides to show you just how much of an old man he is.
warnings: unprotected p in v sex, creampie, hair pulling, (joel gets a lil rough)
Ellie was the one to start it all,
I mean it's not like you hadn't noticed, but she was the one that started with the jokes.
Not very honorable of you to blame it all on the 14 year old, you knew... but still, just to get the record straight, you werenât the one to tease him first.
âGimmie Granpaâ she had chuckled one time, grabbing the piece of paper where Maria had written down the recipe for her 'world-famous' casserole from his hands.
"Hey-" He'd protested,
"You can't see shit, man" she giggled, "Stop trying to fight it- you're getting old buddy"
And well from then on things had... escalated.
You'd yet to see a day where the poor man wasn't made fun of because of it, but truth be told, he really did need glasses.
You'd even suggested it to him more gently, in the comfort of your own room, away from Ellie's prying eyes.
"y'know baby, there's nothing wrong with getting glasses"
He'd looked at you as if you'd just told him to go fuck himself.
"Don't look at me like that" you'd smiled, rounding the bed to intertwine your hands behind his neck "It's for your own good"
"I don't need glasses"
"no?" you'd bit down a grin "you sure?"
"'m sure alright" he grumbled
"I bet Tommy would know where to get you a pair if you asked"
"darlin'"
"yes, baby?" you'd asked, hopeful
"I don't need 'em"
And you really did want to keep on trying to convince him, but then he'd kissed you and well- it must have slipped your mind.
Unluckily for him, not for a very long time.
He was in the bathroom, trying, or more specifically struggling, to open a bandaid for your injured finger.
It wasn't anything serious, just a little cut, but as you'd disinfected it, he'd insisted on covering it up, only of course you hadn't expected it to take so long.
"Baby, what's wrong, you can't find them?"
But the answer to your question was right before you as you entered the bathroom.
As I said, he was struggling.
A laugh bubbled up your throat as you took in his focused expression, the frown on his forehead, the squint in his eyes...
"Let me do it"
"No I can do it I just-" he tried to get it open again, failing miserably.
"Joel-" you smiled, walking up to him "let me" you said softly
And with a sigh, he surrendered, handing you the poor, tortured bandaid
"I could have done that" he grumbled as he watched you do it in a split second.
"Sure you could, old man" You grinned to yourself, carefully applying the bandage to your finger.
"What did you just say?"
A soft, breathless gasp fled your mouth-
He'd moved right behind you, and his hands were now on your waist.
"Jesus babe" you laughed,
"What did you say?"
His voice was rough, and his eyes... something had shifted behind his eyes.
You watched his reflection in the mirror before you as you answered
"I said I'm sure you could"
"Mhh" he hummed, his head lowering until he could dive into your neck and inhale your scent "The other thing"
"what other thing?" you feigned innocence, enthralled by his demeanor, by the almost predatorial look in his eyes
"You know what"
"no I don'-"
But you didn't have time to finish, he'd already grabbed you by your hair, pulling your head back until his mouth was ghosting yours
"you called me an old man, darlin'?"
He was a different man from a minute ago.
This was the Joel Miller people feared, the one that killed without remorse, the one that fucked you rough- the once that a sick and twisted part of you revered.
"Baby I was jokin-"
"didn't look like it" he growled, his clothed hard-on pressing into your ass making you whimper, "you think I'm an old man, babydoll?" he murmured, his grip tightening around your hair "I'll show you how much of an old man I am"
Next thing you knew, your upper body was flushed against the sink's countertop, and your shorts were at your feet, together with your panties.
You watched from the mirror as he freed his cock with the hand that wasn't holding you down, and then you felt it-
"will you look at that" he chuckled darkly, the tip of his dick sliding between your folds with ease "you're makin' a mess for an old man, babydoll"
"J-Joel" you whimpered
"no no darlin'" he cooed "You've brought this on yourself- now you're gonna be good and take it, alright?"
When you didn't respond, he yanked your head back, forcing you to look at him through the mirror
"alright?" he bent down, growling in your ear
"y-yes"
"try not to be too loud," he whispered "You wouldn't want people to know how much you like getting fucked by an old man"
You had no time to respond, to tell him how much you didn't care, because he'd already pushed himself fully inside of you, and the only thing you could do was scream.
"you can't help yourself can ya?" he muttered, watching your face contort in all sorts of bliss-induced expressions "The old man gives it to ya too good, 's that it?" he groaned, feeling your walls squeeze around him
"look at me" he ordered, pulling your hair again, making you open your eyes and watch him as he ruthlessly slammed inside of you "Look at the old man who's fuking you, darlin', don't be rude" he grinned
The sound of his skin against yours reverberated through the bathroom, and god it was nasty.
"f-fuck" you tried to speak, tears tarnishing your vision
"I know, I know" he pretended to care, getting up from where he was pressing his torso onto your back, using a hand to get you to remain flush against the sink "I'm going too slow, ain't I?"
Oh shit
Oh fucking shi-
If you thought he was going hard before... you hadn't seen anything.
You couldn't fully create one single thought in your mind as he picked up his pace, as he started literally slamming into you fast and hard enough to break you in half.
"I'm jus' an old man after all babydoll, ain't I?" he breathed, one hand still on your back while the other was still forcing your head up to look at him "You'll understand if I can't fuck you as hard as you'd like" it was like he wasn't hearing how loud you were moaning, how breathless your whines and gasps where each time his dick hit your cervix "what's that?" he mocked "you need it harder darlin'?"
"J-Joel-" you whined, begging, pleading for what you weren't even sure
"shh I got you baby" he cooed, bending down to whisper in your ear again, slowing down his pace just to thrust so fucking deep and hard into you you swore you saw stars "I know my old man's pace ain't enough for you doll"
But it was- Oh it was more than enough.
And yet he didn't care- he was going even harder, even faster, even deeper, and you... you didn't even remember your name anymore.
You could feel the thickness of his cock as it slammed into you over and over and over again, the way it would hit the most hidden spots inside of you, the ones only Joel had only ever been able to find, and then-
And then you could hear his grunts and strangled groans as he fucked you within an inch of your life, as his hair fell to his forehead and tears streamed down your face and your eyes struggled to remain open, struggled to keep on watching him as he fucked you from behind with enough force to break the fucking sink you were on.
Until it got to be too much, until you felt your stomach tighten and the fuse lighting, until he hit that secret spot once again, and all you could do was close your eyes as bliss took over your body, as waves of ecstasy washed over you.
"look at you" he groaned "coming all over an old man's cock" he breathed, your walls squeezing him too good to do anything else but follow suit "letting an old man come deep inside of ya"
It took a long moment for either of you to wake up from the sex-induced haze, but Joel was in much better shape than you, so it was him who came back earlier.
he begrudgingly pulled out, enjoying for a moment too long his own handy work before he helped you up, picking you up bridal style once he realized how useless your legs had become.
"baby" you murmured, before he could place you on the bed "You know I was joking right?" you said, leaning up to kiss him, your mouth catching his in a sweet, gentle kiss that contradicted completely the way he'd just ruined your ability to walk properly
"You're not an old man" you promised
"mh?" he hummed, kissing you again just because he could
"yeah" you smiled, melting into the kiss for what felt like an eternity
He was holding you gently, watching your eyes as they begged to close.
"good" he hummed against your mouth, watching it twist into a devious little smirk as a spark ignited in your eyes
"Although I still think you should at least consider getting glasses-"
"darlin'" he stopped you immediately "I suggest you stop talkin''"
"or what?" you bit down a grin, laughing softly
"Or Tommy's gonna be real mad when you tell him you can't make it to patrol tomorrow 'cause your legs don't work"

Pairing: Tyler Owens x Fem!Reader (Twisters) Summary: You're a new addition to the Storm Par team and Tyler finds himself fascinated with you from the very beginning.
Itâs been a long and stressful day, so you assume that the group of tornado wranglers hanging about the large red truck by the stairs are feeling the same way as you â exhausted â and will let you head upstairs to get some much needed rest.
You are, however, incredibly wrong.Â
âHey, youâre the one with the Storm Par team, arenât you?â
You force yourself to a stop on the first landing and turn to the group, all of their eyes staring up at you, and nod. âAnd you are the ones that make videos on Youtube.â
Boone, one of the only ones whoâs names youâd gotten earlier today, laughs. âYou say that like itâs a bad thing, but Iâm taking it as a win since you know who we are, as well as the other million people who subscribe to us.â
Itâs hard not to smile at least a little at his cockiness. If you had a million subscribers on Youtube, youâd probably also have let it go to your head a little.Â
You try and excuse yourself from the conversation then, assuming itâs over, and take a step towards the stairs, but yet again â youâre wrong. This time, itâs the tall, gorgeous blond man that speaks. Tyler Owens.
âI donât think sheâs subscribed to us, Boone.â
You canât help it. You bite. âWhat makes you say that, Owens?â
He grins up at you from his spot on the back of the truck. âAm I wrong?âÂ
âThatâs not an answer.â
The others in the group laugh and whoop, obviously enjoying the back and forward between the two of you. You assume that itâs rare for Tyler Owens to get that from anyone, let alone a fellow storm chaser that heâs never met before in his life.Â
Tyler looks at you for a few moments without saying anything and you take that as your cue to leave, stifling a yawn as you turn away and head up the staircase. You can hear the others chattering back at the truck as you reach the top of the staircase and move to find your room, desperate for a warm shower and a comfortable bed.Â
Youâre so stuck in your own thoughts that you donât hear someone bounding up the stairs behind you.Â
âHey, Storm Par,â Tyler Owensâ voice surprises you.
You look up from the key in your hand, having been checking your room number, and meet his eyes. âWere you that desperate for an answer on whether Iâm subscribed to your Youtube channel that you had to follow me up here?â
Tyler chuckles to himself. âNo, surprisingly not. Just figured Iâd come and ask you how youâre doing and didnât think youâd want an audience for that question.â
Youâre a little surprised by his kind nature. Judging by what youâd seen of him so far, he was more of an act first, think later kind of person. And maybe he still was since heâd run after you so fast.Â
âHow Iâm doing? I met you twelve hours ago.â
He flashes a grin. âI canât ask someone I met twelve hours ago how they are?â
âWellâŚâ You hesitate, a little lost for words. âIâm fine, just tired. I havenât done this storm chasing thing in a couple of years and itâs going to take a bit of getting used to, especially working with a team like Storm Par.â
You donât owe Tyler an explanation about everything, not about why you havenât done it in years, nor why youâre a bit apprehensive about the Storm Par team. But you figure, since heâd been so kind to follow you up here to check in on you, a small explanation is the least you can offer him in return for his kindness.
Tyler nods. âListen, I know my team can be a little much sometimes â in a good way, donât get me wrong â but if youâre ever after a bit more fun than the suits and PhDâs of Storm Par, Iâm sure we can squeeze you in.â
You snort. âThey do not wear suits while storm chasing.â
âHow do you know? Youâve only been here for twelve hours, Storm Par.â
Tyler smirks as you narrow your eyes at him. âNot my name, Owens.â
âGo and get some rest, youâll need it for tomorrow.â He can see that youâre exhausted, and even though youâre happily playing along with him, heâs not the type to push it too far. Especially when it comes to you, apparently. âIâll make sure no one disturbs you.â
âYou gonna set up camp outside my room?â
âNo, not for someone Iâve only known for twelve hours. But I will guard the stairs incase Javi or Scott come looking for you,â he smiles, amusement in his every word. âGo on.â
You listen to him, eyeing him carefully one last time before turning and heading towards your room, which you think is at the end of the corridor. Just as youâre putting your key in the lock, you hear him yell out behind you.
âIf you canât sleep, you can always look up Tornado Wranglers on Youtube!âÂ

god, it's brutal out here | r.c.
summary:
âAnd yet youâre still thinking of your ex,â Barry finished the sentence, rubbing his chin. âWhy donât you get back together with her?â
âShe doesnât want me.â
âGod, fucking Country Club,â Barry snickered. âYouâre fucking dense.â
OR; 5 times your friends share their unsolicited opinions about your and Rafeâs break up.
pairing: rafe cameron x reader
warnings: mention of c*caine
word count: 5,4k
authorâs note: the long awaited sequel of so obsessed with your ex! this can be read as a standalone fic, but there are little easter eggs hidden all over, which will be more fun if you read the first part! it's a little bit longer than I had planned, but there was no way around it. I hope you enjoy it so so much!!!!
⌠. ăâş ă . ⌠. ăâş ă . âŚ
I Wheezie
âHey Wheeze.â
You had accepted the facetime without looking at your phone, keeping it rested on a shelf while you were halfway into your closet, trying to find a dress.
âDoes Rafe have a new girlfriend??â
Pausing, you shut your eyes, letting out a silent exhale before you picked up the phone, giving Wheezie a wry smile through the camera.
âNice to see you too.â
The girl only looked at you, unimpressed and her arms crossed. You sighed, running a hand through your hair, knowing you didnât have a way out of this conversation. Grabbing your phone, you sat down on your bed.
âYes, Rafe has a new girlfriend.â
âI knew it!â Wheezie shrieked, throwing her arms up, and you only shook your head in exasperation. The tendency for drama clearly was in the Cameron genes. Wheezie frowned, getting closer to your phone as she looked at you.
âWhy am I more upset about this than you are?â
You bit back another sigh. âBecause Rafe and I are broken up, Wheeze. Heâs allowed to date other people, matter of fact, Iâm really glad that he has moved on.â
âBullshit!â
âWheezie!â
Wheezie rolled her eyes, but she sat back down, crossing her arms over her chest again. âI donât like her.â
âYou donât even know her,â you sighed, rubbing your temple, feeling a migraine coming on.
âThis is crazy!â Wheezie exclaimed. âYou and Rafe never shouldâve broken up in the first place! Rafe is probably only dating her to make you jealous so youâll take him back.â
You couldnât help but snort at that, Wheezie clearly watched way too many rom-coms. She frowned at you.
âWhy are you laughing? This isnât funny, this is, like, super un-funny.â
âBecause, Wheeze,â you started, plucking a feather out of your pillow. âThis isnât some 90âs rom-com where I see Rafe with Rebecca and suddenly a sad song is playing. This is real life. We are broken up.â
âI still donât understand why.â
âRemember when we used to fight all the time? And I was just always sad?â
Wheezie was quiet, her lips still pursed. âYeah. But that doesnât mean anything. Couples fight all the time, doesnât mean you just have to break up.â
âYes, couples fight all the time and they donât have to break up, but it was the right decision for me and Rafe,â you said, your tone final. Wheezie looked at you, her frown slowly smoothing down.
âIf you say so,â she muttered, not quite convinced. She stared down at her chipped finger nails, before she looked up again. âCan we still talk?â
Your eyebrows shot up in surprise. âOf course we can still talk, why wouldnât we?â
âI donât know⌠I mean, youâre gonna find a new boyfriend and maybe he has a younger sister as well and then Iâll just be your exâs younger sister.â
âWheeze,â you said, fondly, knowing where she was coming from. You had been in her life for most of her teenage years, it must be weird not having you around anymore. âWeâll still talk, no matter if I get a new boyfriend or not, even if he has a cool younger sister, or even three.â
Wheezie smiled, rolling her eyes at you. âYouâre so dumb.â
âYet you still want me around,â you teased. âHow about you, Sar and I go get some ice cream and then to the movies this weekend?â
âSounds good,â Wheezie replied with a big smile. She paused when someone called her name from somewhere in the house, before she turned back to her phone. âI gotta go, Rose needs me. Iâll text you later.â
âAlright, Wheeze. Talk to you later, be good.â
Wheezie waved into the camera, before the facetime ended. Your smile dropped and you tossed your phone on your bed with a sigh, letting yourself fall back on your bed. Even six months after the break up it was still hard to talk about Rafe, and now that he had a new girlfriend, you thought itâd be easier to get over him, but all it did was hurt more. It didnât help that Rafe was still texting you every now and then. Nothing scandalous, just small texts, but you never replied. You both agreed on no contact after the break up, because you thought itâd give you a better opportunity to heal. You shouldâve known heâd break it. Picking up your phone, you unlocked it, swiping to your messages.
Rafe [11/30/23: 1:43 am]: couldnât sleep. remember when we took out the boat at two am bc we both drank a red bull at ten?
Rafe [11/30/23: 11:22 am]: sorry, i was drinking. didnât mean to text you. hope youâre doing good
Rafe [12/25/23: 2:44 pm]: merry christmas. itâs weird without you.
Rafe [01/01/24: 01:02 am]: happy new yearâs.
Rafe [01/05/24: 9:56 pm]: are you really not gonna text me back?
Rafe [01/27/24: 3:07 am]: i miss you
Rafe [02/12/24: 12:05 pm]: saw you at the party last night. you looked so fucking pretty. took everything in me not to talk to you.
Rafe [03/01/24: 7:12 pm]: idk if you care or not, but i still wanted to let you know. iâm seeing someone
You never replied to any of the texts, knowing it was for the better. You could block him, but you never brought it over your heart to do so, telling yourself you wanted him to reach you in case of emergency, but deep down, you didnât want to block him.
Just incase.
II Barry
âWant some C?â Barry asked as greeting, presenting Rafe a small baggie with white powder in it as soon as he walked onto the lot.
âNah,â Rafe declined, already feeling jittery enough without it, âWonât say no to a beer though.â
Barry let out a grunt, tossing the baggie on the table, disappearing inside the trailer. Rafe took a seat in one of the chairs, running his hand over his buzzed head, bouncing his leg nervously. He had needed to get out of the house for a while. Ever since Rebecca pulled the picture out of the drawer, he couldnât stop thinking about you. Again.
Which is fucked up, really. He thought he got over you, he didnât want to be the guy who thought about his ex while having a whole ass girlfriend. The door to the trailer opened with a slam, Barry exiting with two beer cans, handing Rafe one of them. The can was ice cold in his hands, and the cold liquid helped with his racing heart. He let out a sigh, rubbing a thumb over his eye brow. Rafe took another gulp of the beer, almost drinking the entire can in one go, while Barry watched him, assessing.
âYou good?â
Rafe nodded, setting the can on the table.
âYeah, jusâ stressed.â
âWork, orâŚ?â
Barry trailed off without finishing his sentence and Rafe didnât answer, wiping a finger over his jaw, which was clenched to the max.
Barry eyed him skeptically, leaning back in his chair. âHowâs Mrs. Country Club?â
Rafe let out a loud sigh, tipping his head back, like he always did when he was annoyed with Barry.
âBarry, I donât know if all the drugs youâre taking are starting to get to your memory, but we broke up.â
âDonât be fucking rude,â he said, kicking Rafeâs chair. Not hard enough for it to tip over, but hard enough for Rafe to grip onto the arm rests, glaring at his friend. âHowâd you know I wasnât talking âbout your new girl?â
âBecause you always call her Becky,â Rafe pointed out, giving him a look.
Barry shrugged, taking a sip from his beer. âYou still know who âm talking about, so whatâs the problem?â
âProblem is, itâs disrespectful. You know thatâs not her name.â
âYouâre still hung up on your ex while dating Becky, so whoâs really disrespecting her?â
Rafeâs head shot up and the glare he sent Barry was deadly.
âFuck this shit, and fuck you,â he snapped, pushing himself up from the chair, but Barry grabbed his wrist, stopping him.
âBoy, sit down.â
Rafe scowled at him, before sitting back down, crossing his arms over his chest like a petulant child. He did not come all the way out to the cut to get called out like this.
âIf you came here to be coddled, you went to the wrong person.â
âI donât need to be coddled,â Rafe muttered with an eyeroll. âJust wanted to let off some steam.â
âSo?â Barry snorted, waving his hands around. âSteam away.â
Rafe scoffed, scooting down in his chair, shaking his head. âDo you think I want to think of her? I fucking hate feeling like this. Bex is nice, and sheâs hot. And yet-â
âAnd yet youâre still thinking of your ex,â Barry finished the sentence, rubbing his chin. âWhy donât you get back together with her?â
âShe doesnât want me.â
âGod, fucking Country Club,â Barry snickered. âYouâre fucking dense.â
âNah, you donât fucking get it, â Rafe sneered, leaning his head in his hands. And he didnât, not really. Which really wasnât his fault. Rafe just didnât want to talk about the break up with his friends. Physically couldnât. Now that he thought about it, he hadnât told anyone why you broke up. Just made it feel all to real, he guessed.
âNah, youâre right, I donât,â Barry said, shaking his head. âAll I know is, one day youâre all fucking sunshine and the next youâre more emo than that Friday girl.â
âWhat?â Rafe asked, lifting his head to stare at Barry in confusion.
Barry waved him off. âYou know, that freaky girl from Netflix with the black lipstick.â
âDo you mean Wednesday?â
âYeah, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, all the same to me,â Barry huffed. âPoint is, lifeâs too fucking short to do things that donât make you happy.â
âBex makes me happy.â
Barry gave him a long, hard look, squinting his eyes at him. âYeah, right. Whatever makes you sleep at night.â
Rafe stared back at him before shaking his head, finishing the last of his beer before crushing the empty can in his hand, declining to answer, because he knew he couldnât convince Barry.
He wasnât even convinced himself.
III Topper
top [05/03/24: 4:06 pm]: gonna be at alexâs later tonight with rafe and rebecca just fyi if you wanted to come
mrs. rafe [05/03/24: 4:57 pm]: k, thanks for letting me know
ââ NEW MESSAGE ââ
top [05/04/24: 1:37 am]: can you pick me up?
It was Saturday night, a little past your bedtime for a night in. You were getting ready for bed, exiting the bathroom when your phone buzzed in your hand. Lifting it, you read the new text, not quite believing heâd make you do this. What the fuck was he thinking asking you to pick him up? Shaking your head in disbelief, you typed out an answer.
mrs. rafe [05/04/24: 1:41 am]: topper no
Before you could put the phone away, your phone already buzzed with an answer, and you nearly didnât want to read whatever lame ass excuse he came up with, your hand stilling when your eyes flit over his text.
top [05/04/24: 1:41 am]: please, i donât want to get a ride with rafe and rebecca
top [05/04/24: 1:41 am]: she asked me so many questions about you and i canât be around rafe rn or iâll tell him
mrs. rafe [05/04/24: 1:45 am]: ⌠fine
mrs. rafe [05/04/24: 1:47 am]: youâre so annoying
Cursing Topper and yourself for not going to bed sooner, you put on a sweatshirt and grabbed your keys and purse, typing out another text before you headed out of the house, getting into your car.
mrs. rafe [05/04/24: 1:49 am]: be there in ten
top [05/04/24: 1:50 am]: omg i owe you <3
Barely ten minutes later, you pulled up in front of Alexâ house, looking out for Topper, before you spotted him underneath a tree. You rolled to a stop next to him, giving him the most unimpressed look.
âYouâre a lifesaver,â Topper groaned, getting into the car, shutting the door behind him.
You rolled your eyes, pulling off the curb without another word, driving towards Topperâs house.
âIâm really sorry for asking you to come get me, but Rafe was looking for me and I had too much to drink already to lie in his face,â Topper said, leaning his back against the headrest, shutting his eyes.
You desperately wanted to know what Rebecca had asked but you didnât want to come off as the nosy ex, even if this was Topper. So as nonchalantly as you could, you asked: âWhat did you talk about?â
âJesus,â Topper said, running a hand through his hair. âShe asked me how you guys broke up and wanted details, too. Was super insistent, I was kinda scared actually.â
Okay, so just normal sussing out the ex, you could deal with that.
âWhat did you say?â
âThat it was a mutual break up and I didnât know why you broke up, just that you suddenly disappeared from each otherâs lives.â
You sighed. That was the vaguest answer youâd ever heard.
âWhy didnât you just tell her why we broke up?â
Topper glanced at you, his brows knitted together.
âHow can I tell her something I donât know?â
âWhat?â
You slammed on the breaks, nearly sending Topper flying through the windshield because the idiot hadnât buckled up, while you stared at him.
âWhat do you mean you donât know why we broke up?â
âI donât!â Topper exclaimed. âRafe refuses to talk about it and you never told me either.â
âBecause I assumed Rafe has told you! Itâs been like six months!â
Blinking at Topper, it took you a few seconds to process, jumping when someone honked their horn at you, when you remembered you had stopped in the middle of the street.
âShit,â you muttered, shifting gears to keep on driving, eyes flitting to Topper repeatedly.
âSoâŚâ he started. âWhy did you guys break up?â
You gripped the steering wheel so tightly your knuckles turned white, letting out a deep breath. When you had left to come pick Topper up, you hadnât expected having to tell him why you and his best friend had broken up.
âI was getting so worried about him. He was so stressed about the company every day, took home so much work and Ward was breathing down his neck to keep the numbers up. I told him that I thought he should take a step back, maybe take a break or something, tried to convince him of going on a trip or something, but the more I said, the more he seemed to be pushing himself into work. It got so bad that we were fighting basically every day, and it just wasnât working anymore. It felt like we were going in circles.â
You cleared your throat when you felt yourself getting choked up, vision turning a little blurry from the tears in your eyes.
âShit, Iâm sorry,â Topper exclaimed, patting himself down, looking for some tissues.
âDonât worry about it,â you snorted, wiping your tears away with the sleeves of your sweatshirt. You were so wrapped up in trying to retell the break up, you hadnât even noticed that you already reached Topperâs house. âI shouldnât even still be getting so worked up over this after all this time,â you sniffed, turning your car off.
Topper looked at you, with that typical look on his face and you rolled your eyes.
âDonât look at me like that. I canât believe Rafe hasnât told you.â
He rubbed the back of his neck. âHonestly? I think he might be in denial about it.â
You scoffed at him, shaking your head. Why was everyone so hung up over your break up?
âItâs been six months.â
Topper didnât reply, his hand on the car door and you expected him to bid you good bye, but that was too easy.
â⌠Do you think you guys will get back together?â
âHe has a girlfriend, Top.â
âStill. I donât think that Rafe and Rebecca are gonna last very long.â Topper looked at you, pressing his lips together, before shaking his head. âSorry. Thanks for coming and for getting me home. Text me if you need anything, okay?â
You nodded, giving him a small wave, and waited until he got out of the car, shutting the door behind him, before you turned your car on, pulling off.
âWhat the fuck,â you muttered to yourself, wiping the rest of the tears off as you drove home.
IV Kelce
âKelce!â
Kelce looked up from the pool table, a smile growing on his face when he saw Rafe come down the basement, his friend wrapping an arm around him for a brief hug.
âHappy birthday, man,â Rafe said, handing Kelce a bottle of the expensive whiskey he always drank when he was at Rafeâs but too stingy to buy it for himself.
âAh shit, you didnât have to,â Kelce uttered, though his eyes were sparkling as he looked at the bottle in his hands. He handed the pool stick to one of the guys next to him, leading Rafe to the bar. He grabbed two glasses from the shelves, pouring Rafe and himself a good amount, offering one of the glasses to him.
âCheers to you.â
The two clinked their glasses, before sipping on the whiskey. Kelce really enjoyed it, too, with the way he closed his eyes, and Rafe only snorted in his glass. Kelce peaked his eye open, shoving his friend fondly with a grin.
âRebecca here?â
âYeah, upstairs.â
Kelce hummed in thoughts, nodding absentmindedly. He stared into his glass, swishing the amber liquid around before he spoke up again.
âYou know sheâs here, too, right?â
Rafe tensed, knowing exactly that Kelce was talking about you, but he had expected it. Firstly, because you and Kelce had always been friends, and secondly because he had heard Sarah making plans with you to go together. Didnât mean this felt any less of a punch to the gut. He really hoped he wouldnât run into you, because he wasnât quite sure what heâd do; all he knew was, that Bex wasnât gonna like it. Rafe cleared his throat, forcing himself to sound nonchalant.
âI figured, yeah.â
âThat okay?â Kelce asked, and Rafe was starting to get annoyed, rolling his eyes. Why was Kelce questioning him about you on his damn birthday? He tried to dampen his anger though, not wanting to ruin the night.
âYes. Itâs your birthday, man.â
As soon as those words left his mouth, Rafe knew he did a shit job of hiding his emotions, and Kelce eyed him suspiciously.
âI donât get you guys,â he sighed, crossing his arms over his chest. âYou got a new girl, but you still havenât gotten over your ex, clearly, but every time I mention her, you act like itâs the worst thing in the world, but neither of you have said a bad word about the other.
Rafe scoffed, though his heart started to race at the thought of you talking about him. He wondered what you had said, if you cared enough to ask about him, or if you had long moved on.
âAre you ever gonna tell me why you guys broke up?â
âMaybe next time.â
Kelce gave him a wry smile, knowing this was Rafe avoiding the topic again. He lifted his head when more people starting coming down the basement, curling his hand around Rafeâs shoulder to give him a squeeze.
âI really hope you figure it out bro, because this right now is not it.â
He then excused himself to welcome the new arrivals and Rafe gripped his glass, before downing it in one go.
âAlright, who wants to get destroyed in a round of pool?â he asked, clapping his hands together as he approached the pool table. Anything to stop himself from going upstairs to look for you.
V Sarah
âOh my god, I thought you were gonna keep talking to her forever!â
You gave Sarah a look. She hadnât even waited a minute after you left Rebecca on the couch before she started talking about her.
âI donât have a problem with her.â
Sarah groaned, linking her arm with yours as to not lose you in the crowd that has formed in Kelceâs house. You were glancing around, hyper aware that you could run into Rafe any second, but you didnât want Sarah to notice.
âI donât understand how you can be so chill. Did you not see the picture she had in her purse?â
You sighed, brushing your hair back over your shoulder. Was this ever going to stop? âSar, please.â
âHello?? That was super freaky.â
âMaybe she was just cleaning up and wanted to throw it in the trash and forgot it in her purse.â
Sarah laughed dryly, shaking her head. âBullshit! Admit that you find it weird.â
âOkay, maybe it is a little weird,â you admitted. âBut donât you do things that are a little weird sometimes? Maybe sheâs just a little insecure. Which I wouldnât blame her for, youâre so mean. Shouldnât you try and be her friend or something?â
âWhy? Sheâs not gonna be around much longer anyways, and I already have a friend.â
You rolled your eyes, fishing your keys out of your purse to unlock your car. Again with the sentiment that Rafe and Rebecca werenât gonna last much longer. You decided against deeming that statement with an answer and got into your car, with Sarah getting into the passenger seat.
âDo you want to grab some burgers?â She asked, buckling up, like you hadnât just told you that your ex and his new girlfriend werenât gonna last.
You gave her a look as you tossed your purse to the back.
âWhat do you mean do I want to grab burgers? I thought you wanted to leave because youâre meeting John B early in the morning.â
Sarah blinked at you, before she reached out to give you a shove on the forehead. âI was lying so we could get away, stupid.â
âOh my god,â you groaned, starting your car as Sarah protested.
âWhat? I was getting weirded out by you being all besties with Rafeâs new girlfriend. I donât even understand how you can be so nice to her knowing sheâs all up on your man.â
âPray tell, whoâs my man again?â
âDonât even,â Sarah huffed. âYou guys dated forever, I know you still love each other. And let me tell you one thing,â she said, raising her eyebrows at you. âIf you got a new boyfriend? Rafe would not be this nice to him like you were to Rebecca.â With that, Sarah crossed her arms over her chest, settling back against her seat.
You only sighed, starting your car in silence.
âDo you want to get burgers now or not?â you asked, extending a peace offer while looking over at Sarah. She glowered at you, before nodding with an eyeroll.
âYes.â
BONUS + I Rafe
âI did, at the party last night⌠She said sheâs happy that you have me, that she was worried about how you work too much.â
Rafe pushed the pasta on his plate around with his fork, too engrossed in his thoughts to even think about eating. He didnât even notice how Dennis had stopped talking. Rafe looked up from his plate, only to see Dennis look at him intently, an amused grin on his face.
âSorry, were you saying something?â
âI was saying a lot, but you seemed like you were on a completely different planet,â Dennis noted, wiping his mouth with a napkin. Rafe winced, putting his fork down.
âSorry, I have a lot on my mind.â
âI can tell,â Dennis mused. âTrouble in paradise?â
âSomething like that.â
Rafe sighed, leaning back in his chair. Ever since you broke up, Rafe has been assuming that you didnât care about him anymore, that you had long moved on from him and your relationship. He thought that you resented him, blamed him for the break up, which was honestly the main reason why he went back to the dating scene so quickly; to get over you. But hearing that you still cared about him? Enough to be nice to his new girlfriend and even ask about him? He wondered if there was still a chance for him and you to be together again.
If it werenât for the fact that he already had a girlfriend.
âCan I give you some unsolicited advice, son?â
âDo I have a choice?â Rafe asked with a wry grin and Dennis only let out a belly laugh, shaking his head.
âRafe, most relationships these days end because of your own ego, from both parties. No matter how big the fight or problem seems, will it really be that important in hindsight?â Dennis asked him. âHow long have you an your girl been together? Almost 5 years, no?â
Rafe nodded, not daring to correct Dennis. He had never outright told him that you had broken up in the first place.
âSee, thatâs half a decade. I can assure you, in another half, youâre not even gonna remember this fight.â
Yeah, I donât know about that, Rafe thought.
âDo you love her?â
Turning his ring on his finger, Rafe let out a soft exhale, before nodding. âYeah, I do.â
âSee. Problem solved.â
Rafe lifted his head to grin at Dennis.
âThanks. Is it okay if we cut today short?â
âSure,â Dennis said, waving Rafe off when he reached for his wallet. âLunch is on me. Go get your girl.â
âI will,â Rafe promised, pushing his chair back to stand up. âI just gotta take care of something else first.â
BONUS + II You
You were staring at your phone, text thread with Rafe open. It was Saturday night; you and Sarah had went out to a small beach party. Sarah had gone to fill her drink back up and you had used that time of solace to overthink. About Rafe.
For the past few week, you couldnât stop thinking about him. And you blamed your friends for it, really. First Wheezie, then Topper and then Sarah? Somehow all of them said that the break up was the worst idea, and even though you had always second guessed the choice to break up, this was the first time you actually actively regretted it.
The way Sarah seemed so sure that Rafe and Rebecca werenât going to last long. Maybe you were wrong and they werenât as happy as you thought. But then again, it wasnât any of your business, was it? Who were you to put your nose into their relationship?
God, you shouldnât be doing this.
âHow long does Sarah need to fill her drink back up?â You muttered to yourself, finishing your vodka soda and burying the cup in the sand next to you, when you heard foot steps approaching.
âFinally! I was about to send a search group out for you!â you exclaimed, standing up and dusting the sand off your lap. âSeriously, how long does it take for-â
You froze when you turned around just to see Rafe standing in front of you, instead of Sarah. Swallowing thickly, you blinked at him, caught off guard.
âRafe, hey,â you said, opting for casual. âSorry. I thought you were Sarah.â
The corners of Rafeâs mouth twitched. âYeah, I could tell.â
You looked at him, sighing a bit wistfully (mostly) internally, before you shifted on your feet nervously. âIt was nice to see you,â you said, and it was true. âBut um⌠I think Iâll go look for Sarah.â You gave him a small smile, before walking towards, and then past him.
âYouâre still worried about me.â
You let out a startled laugh, pausing mid-step to turn back to him. âWhat?â
âYou told Rebecca that you were glad that I had her and that you worried I work too much.â
âOf course Iâm still worried about you,â you huffed, brushing your hair back. âYou canât be surprised about that.â
Rafe looked at you, and you could tell that this was news to him.
âRafe.â
Rafe let out a sigh, rubbing his forehead. âYou didnât reply to any of my texts. I thought you were mad at me or somethinâ.â
âI didnât reply to any of your texts because we said weâd do no contact for a while.
âStill,â Rafe muttered, kicking a rock. âI didnât think it would be so easy for you-â
âAnd because you were happy with Rebecca, do you think itâs easy for me to see you with someone else?â
âI broke up with Rebecca last week.â
âWhat?!â
Mouth agape, you stared at him and Rafe only rubbed the back of his neck. âShe⌠Wasnât what I wanted.â
âOh,â you only said, letting out a soft exhale. âIâm sorry about that.â
Rafe sighed, stuffing his hands into his pockets. His gaze was trained on the floor for a bit, before he lifted his head to look at you.
âI want to try again⌠I want us to try again.â
âRafeâŚâ
You swallowed thickly, your eyes wide and you didnât move as Rafe took a step towards you, reaching for your hand. Your fingers were cold in his but they quickly warmed to his touch, and the way he laced his fingers with yours, felt all to familiar.
âI love you. I never should have agreed to breaking up. It was arguably the second stupidest thing Iâve ever done.â
âAnd whatâs the stupidest?â you asked, corners of your mouth lifting.
âNot listening to you when you were just trying to help,â he answered, looking down at you, so vulnerable like you hadnât seen him in a long time. âI rearranged my schedule at the company so I could take on less work, take more time off and relax. Take the time to get us to where we were before it all went shitty.â
Your heart was in your throat as you listened to him talk, unsure what to say.
âRafe, I donât know⌠â
âBaby, please,â he begged, squeezing your hand. âDo you love me, still?â
You scoffed. âThatâs not fair.â
âWhy? Because you do?â
âOf course I still love you,â you mumbled, looking up at him through your lashes. âDo you know how hard it was for me to ignore your texts? To see you with another girl, so happy?â
Rafe shook his head, lifting his hand to tuck your hair behind your ear. âI wasnât. Not really.â
You let out another sigh, looking at the way your hands were intertwined, how your heart had stopped racing, before you nodded, looking up at him. âOkay. Letâs do it.â
A smile spread across Rafeâs face, so big it was so uncharacteristic for him.
âYeah?â
âYeah.â
It was like that word switched a flip inside of him, as he grabbed you by your nape gently, to kiss you, slotting his lips against your, and as your lips touched, it felt like you were finally home again. You only pulled away to breathe, both of you staring at each other like you couldnât quite realize this was happening.
Sarah [05/11/2024: 10:45 pm]: (sent to 4 contacts) [picture attached: blurry photograph of you and Rafe kissing at the beach]
Topper [05/11/2024: 10:46 pm]: thank god.

Hi 𼺠I had a dream that I really want into a fic but Iâm so ass at writing but the dream was basically Josh and Y/N are a couple through the death of the sisters and when they go back the next year Y/N is pregnant and trying to tell Josh but half way through his prank he finds out (I donât remember how) and ta-da I wake up!
If youâre not comfortable writing this itâs ok! Just ignore my ask :) â¤ď¸
[note: omg! We had the same dream!]
Josh Washington x F!Reader
A/n; no use of y/n
Warning: mentions of pregnancy: slight angst: fear for life
You nervously stared at the positive pregnancy test while sitting on Joshâs bed in the lodge, tapping your foot against the floor and biting down on your lower lip. Unsure of how you are going to tell Josh the news. You weren't that far along not even showing yet, but you were pregnant. Three weeks in fact.
The sound of footsteps coming up the steps made you shove the pregnancy test into your pocket, acting as if nothing was happening. You looked up, seeing your boyfriend Josh walking into the room to sit beside you. âWhatâre you doing up here all by yourself?â asked Josh, as sat down beside you.
âNothing.â
âNothing, that doesnât sound very funâ he said.
He moves closer, putting an arm around your shoulder. "I was thinking we should heat up some of those frozen pizzas you brought," he says, rubbing your arm.
âThrow ourselves a little party, " he says, placing his hand on your thigh. You turn to look at him and smile, seeing the smirk on his face. After that, " he leaned closer, closing the gap between you. You gasped quietly, feeling his lips against yours.
"Mm, you've got the whole night planned out don't you?" You asked, looking at him. He put an arm around your waist, keeping you from laying down on the bed. "You could say that." He grinned, planting another kiss on your lips.
"Why?"
"Are you pregnant?" he asked, You froze and bit your lip. âAhh.â you said nervously. âIm just joking with you.â he said, kissing you on the lips.
"I would love to start a family with you," he said, holding your hand and gently rubbing it with his thumb. You smiled as you looked at him.
âI can see a little you or little me running around,â He said smiling at the thought.
Your heart skipped a beat hearing his words, âJosh, I-Iâm-â but you were interrupted, by a knock at the doorway. You two turned around and saw Sam standing there, âAm I interrupting something?â asked Sam, and you pulled away and shook your head.
âN-No, we were only talking.â You said. She looks at you not convinced for a moment then turns towards Josh, âHey Josh. No hot water's kinda major oversight doncha think...?â asked Sam, looking at him and her.
âYeah yeah, just gotta fire up the boiler. It's in the basement.â said Josh, as he he then returned his gaze back to you.
He planted a kiss on your lips. "Let's finish this when I get back, okay?" he said as he pulled away. He went with Sam downstairs to the basement to turn on the boiler, leaving you all alone.
â-âââ
You sat there on the bed staring at the pregnancy test, and then your stomach grumbled. You pouted, frozen pizza sounded really good right now. Placing the pregnancy test on the night stand, you got up and made your way downstairs.
As you made your way downstairs you noticed Chris and Ashley, talking by the kitchen door. âWhats going on, whereâs Josh?â You asked, looking down at them.
As if on cue you heard Joshâs screams coming from the kitchen, as the door rattled. âJosh!â You cried out, rushing down the stairs.
Trying to open the door hearing his screams, but the door wouldnât budge. âCome on!â You groaned.
âJosh!â Ashely called out, and as she touched the door she was pulled inside. The door slamming behind her, âAsh! Josh!â You and Chris called out fearfully, as you tried to get the door open. Once the door opened you and Chris were met face to face, with a psychopath wearing a mask. Before you could do anything, the psycho had punched Chris in the face knocking him unconscious.
Leaving only you.
Your eyes widened as you backed away, turning to run. You didnât get far the psychopath pulling you back wrapping his arms around you and placing a cloth over your nose.
Your vision blurred as you struggled against his strong grasp, feeling the rough texture of the cloth covering your mouth as you desperately tried to pull it off. Tears welled up in your eyes, blurring your surroundings as you fought to stay conscious.
You whimpered in fear and desperation, your body growing weaker as you struggled against his overpowering hold. Finally, your strength failed, and your body went limp in his arms.
He shifted your body placing an arm underneath your thighs and another, on your back. Carrying you bridal style. Walking up the stairs quietly, he entered his room. Placing you on the bed carefully.
He knelt down and brushed his fingers against your cheeks, causing you to shift. He was about to get up and leave to begin the next phase of his prank, but something on the nightstand caught his eye.
Picking up the plastic link that stuck his arms to his side, he looked back and forth between you and the positive pregnancy test. Why didn't you tell him? Were you nervous? Scared? Worried he'd be angry at you?
He could never be upset with you for being pregnant. He wanted to wake you up and twirl you around in his arms. But he was in too deep; he couldn't stop now, could he?
[a/n: sorry for the wait with this one also the abrupt ending. Josh basically didnât mean for u to be there the same time Chris and Ashley were]

cherry pits - psh (m)
this work contains smut - minors please do not interact
pairing. dad!sunghoon x fem!reader
synopsis. Your alarmingly empty bank account forces you to find a last-minute summer job so that you can afford a trip with your friends. The extremely handsome customer that comes into the store just happens to be a young single dad who's renovating the old house next to yours. The tension that settles between the two of you as you start helping him fix up his house soon becomes unbearable, but it's all one-sided anyway, right?
(Spoiler: wrong.)
genre. DILF AUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!, neighbors au, s2l, summer au, slight age gap (reader is 21 and hoon 26), reader is so down bad over sunghoon its actually crazy but also extremely relatable cause this is sunghoon we're talking about, fluff and smut, sex gets freakyyy ngl
word count. 12.9k
a/n. hey sisters had no time to write anything this week so i am coming back (everybody boos) with a repost yayyy!!! i actually love this story idkw i just find it fun so i hope you guys will enjoy rereading / reading it !!!! as always let me know ur thoughts.. even if they're just incomprehensible screaming (bad or good).. im happy w anything ok bye!!!
Youâve always wondered about the ratio of cherry to pit. Such a big pit for so little flesh, isnât it? Yet thatâs never stopped you from biting into the small fruit, eating what you could and spitting out the unwanted part. You actually rather enjoy this whole process. Bite, eat, spit. You could repeat this with huge bowls of cherries at a time until they upset your stomach and you had to stop for your own good.
Bite, eat, spit is exactly what youâre doing when, with a trembling finger, you finally brave to open your banking app and check your balance. Itâs the beginning of summer, and after two semesters of intense studying and too-much-coffee drinking, you think you deserve three long months of doing nothing but hanging out in your childhood bedroom and eating the food your parents buy and make. Youâre especially looking forward to the vacation in Mexico you have planned with your friends at the end of August.
One look at your bank account and your dreams of white beaches and seas so blue you couldnât tell them apart from the sky shatter around you, the sad, low numbers on the screen sneering at you mockingly. You were sure you had saved enough money from part-time jobs and generous relatives, but now you regret all of those night-outs and lazy takeaways. If you had cut down on those, maybe you wouldnât have to go through the hassle of finding a summer job at the last minute, which you would definitely have to do if you wanted to eat something on that dear beach of yours and not just starve to death under the glaring sun.
That was it - tomorrow, youâd go and get a job. Today, however, youâd enjoy your last day of respite and eat some more cherries, or maybe make some jam and a pie so your parents wouldnât chide you for eating them all, and then go pick some more from the three trees in your backyard. Youâd sit outside, enjoying the warmth of the sun while you read or, if you couldnât be asked, while you listened to the bustle of the old and worn-down house next door being renovated. Youâre surprised someone had the courage to buy it and give it a new life, but you assume thatâs the kind of courage that comes with having time and money.Â
Yesterday night, youâd heard a little girl playing outside until her mom called her in saying it was time to go, so you made up a story of your neighbors being newlyweds that had decided theyâd had enough of the city and wanted to raise their daughter in a calmer town far from busy streets and loud honks. You could bring them some cherries, maybe in jam or pie form, as a housewarming gift.
Unfortunately, the day passed and you were too busy doing nothing to actually get around to baking, so you decided to do nothing some more and then go to bed, needing rest before your big job hunt.
Youâd gravely overestimated the amount of job opportunities in your small hometown, only receiving apologetic looks from the store owners as they tell you they donât need any help, or worse, already have someone. Damn those 16-year-olds who only get summer jobs so they can blow their whole pay in a couple weeks before school starts again. You, on the other hand, need that money for important things, like sipping on a cocktail at a bar with a seaview.
The local hardware store next to the train station is your saving grace. It looks quite small from the outside, but once you step inside, rows of lamps and mirrors in all shapes and sizes along with all kinds of household needs welcome you, followed by a section for gardening and pet caretaking. The basement is where all the paints and brushes were, as well as the more technical (technical to you, at least) products, like bolts and tools or kitchen and bathroom appliances.
A lot of people undertake renovations in their homes during their free time in the summer, so itâs important for the store to have their experts helping out customers in their dedicated aisles rather than working behind the till and restocking the shelves, which is what you will be doing for the next two months. The pay is slightly above minimum wage and with twenty-one hours of work a week, youâll earn more than enough to enjoy your vacation. You start tomorrow.
Your co-workers are happy to welcome a new face into their team. Theyâre nice even if they have the tendency to drone on about different types of tools and the importance of choosing the right brush for the surface youâre painting, which you donât particularly care about, but you think you might as well learn as much as you can during your time here; it might always come in handy later.
As you expected, it isnât the most stimulating job ever, but you arenât bored out of your mind either. You make small talk with customers as they explain their purchases, some more defensively than others, even if you didnât ask. You make sure to restock the shelves correctly and sometimes ask for help when you feel your arms giving out after hours of carrying heavy stuff. When no oneâs in, you like to rearrange the cute bathroom decorations so that they make a little rainbow of toothbrush and soap holders.
You were daydreaming about what you would do with your friends in Mexico and all the cherries you could eat there when a man so handsome you thought he was a part of your dream walks in. He doesnât notice (or maybe he just ignores it, youâre not sure) your gawking and smiles at you, saying âhelloâ before turning his attention to the map which details where everything is stored at the entrance of the shop. You manage a small âh-helloâ back that probably doesnât even reach his ears, and you curse yourself for doing a poor job of greeting a customer just because said customer looks like heâs been pushed from the heavens above onto this unworthy earth by the other angels who were jealous of his beauty.Â
You stay put behind the counter the whole time heâs there to avoid the potential embarrassment of running into him in a random aisle and making a fool of yourself. There isnât much to do anyway, so you rearrange the organic protein bars and chewing-gum at the counter and count all the money in the cash register to distract yourself. He doesnât spend a very long time browsing and after twenty minutes, you see him approach with a cart full of the biggest cans of paint the store offers. Itâs mostly white paint, but there are some browns and grays, and one of pink as well.
You thank God for those twenty minutes because they allowed you to get a hold of yourself so that you didnât gape at him like a dead fish instead of scanning his articles, which is what you are very professionally and expertly doing. âThatâs a lot of paint,â you comment lightheartedly, partly just to prove to yourself that you can also speak in front of this man.
âI know,â he chuckles, and it seems unfair that his voice should be just as attractive as his face. âThe previous owners of the house I just bought had terrible taste in wallpaper and wall colors, so I have to repaint basically the whole house. Everything has to go, really. The floors, the furniture, the lights.â
âSounds like youâre going to have a busy summer. Thatâll be $132.76, please.â
âIâll pay by card,â he says as he brings his wallet out from his back pocket and inserts his card into the reader, which allows you to look freely at his tanned arms and the veins that protrude here and there. He canât be older than thirty, so thereâs probably not that much of an age difference between the two of you, but damn does he look more mature in the sexiest way possible than all of the male college students youâre used to seeing on a daily basis. If anything, he reminds you of the hot young Linguistics professor your whole department likes to drool over.Â
The beep of the payment being accepted snaps you out of your daze. âAnd yeah, itâll sure be a busy summer. Iâll need a lot of stuff from here, so you might have to get used to seeing me around,â he says with a smile that makes your heart skip a beat. Thereâs no way this walking Greek god of a man is actually flirting with you, but the glint in his eyes tells you it wasnât just an off-hand comment.
âI could get used to that,â you surprise yourself by replying confidently, your smile mirroring his as pretty dimples appear on each side of his face.
You hand him the receipt and notice his eyes flickering down to your name tag before trapping yours in his gaze once again. You donât think you ever want to look away. âIâll see you around, Y/N,â he says and walks out with his cart and his tons of paint before you can say anything, lest ask his name, except for âsee you.â
You take a deep breath in and another out when heâs out of sight, trying to calm your racing heart. You canât wait to rave to the girlsâ group chat about this, but one of your coworkers calls you for help and you have to put the handsome stranger to the back of your mind for a while.
â
That weekend, your parents ask you to do something about the cherries slowly starting to spoil in the fridge, so you put on your headphones and listen to an audiobook for entertainment, then get to pitting. It feels wrong to listen to The Kiss Quotient and its many smut scenes when your parents are coming and going out of the room, but what they donât know wonât kill them; you just try to keep your reactions to a minimum during the extra spicy scenes.
Pitting cherries is an arduous task that always takes longer than you think it will, but you never complain about it. Youâve found the perfect technique of cutting them in half around the pit, turning the small fruit without squeezing it, extracting the stone and making sure it doesnât get confused and end up in the bowl with the pitted cherries, all without tiring your wrists after ten minutes. A surprise pit in a cherry pie can add to the charm of a homemade dessert, but youâd rather not have to spit out five of them while trying to eat one slice.
You prepare a crumbly dough to make two classic American-style pies and fill four jars with cherry jam that you cook while the doughs rest. Itâs almost offensive how small the cherries become as they cook, the amount that fills those four jars having filled eight before, but you decide thereâs no reason to take it personally since the cherries donât do it on purpose, and put the jars away to cool down. You roll out the first rested dough and despair for a bit when it keeps on falling apart, but it just makes it more satisfying once you have it perfectly thinly rolled out and covering the tin. The second one is a bit nicer to you and you only have to try rolling it out twice.Â
Two hours later, as the sun finally starts to relent and a cooler breeze flows through the air, the pies are all baked, cooled and ready to be eaten. You leave one for you and your parents to enjoy later, then head over to the next house to greet your new neighbors with the other pie. You knock and wait for a good thirty seconds before getting any sort of response, making you think no oneâs in.
âY/N?â a semi-familiar voice calls out, and your head whips in its direction. If this were a cartoon or a 2012 teen show, youâd probably drop the pie tin, but thankfully, your hands arenât that sweaty, and the shock of the man from the other day at the store being your neighbor isnât that great, because of course, of course heâs your neighbor. Youâre Y/N, after all; the almighty gods above would never let you have a boring, uneventful summer. Of course the hot new man in town is your neighbor.
âOh! Hi! Guess weâre neighbors. Ha,â you say with a clumsy smile, holding the tin over your forearm as your other hand shields your eyes from the sunlight so you can look at him without squinting your eyes.
âNeighbors?â he repeats as he joins you on the front porch, taking off his gloves dirtied by the mud and using the back of his hand to wipe off some sweat from his forehead. The sweat makes his hair stick to his face and there are small beads of it falling from his hairline down onto his white t-shirt. You detect the slightest of stubbles on his chin and upper lip, probably from not having shaved for just a day or two. Heâs even tanner than when you saw him a few days ago, and his thick eyebrows form a straight line as he frowns in what you guess is tiredness and perhaps confusion from seeing you in regular clothes and holding a pie tin on his porch. For a second, youâre scared he might think youâre some kind of stalker, but you nod and tilt your head towards your house.Â
âYep. That one just over there behind you.â
He turns his upper body to take a look at your house and nods slowly as he turns back around, gaze finding yours again like the other day at the store. You have no idea who this man is - hell, you donât even know his name - but good lord are you attracted to him, especially when he gives you that unreadable smile that shows off his dimples.Â
âHuh. What a coincidence,â he says, and that could mean anything in the world, but you hope he means it in a good way. âIâm Sunghoon, by the way.â he adds, extending his hand for you to take, which you do, and the simple action of shaking his hand without eye contact ever breaking is enough to send shivers down your spine. Hopefully, this goes unnoticed by this Sunghoon.
A walking wet dream. Thatâs what this man is. Heâs walked right out of your deepest Wattpad-induced fantasies and into the house next door. Probably doesnât help that youâd been listening to literary porn just fifteen minutes prior.Â
âIs that pie?â he asks as he releases your hand.
âIt is, cherry pie I made myself with cherries from our backyard. A housewarming gift, if you will. Here,â you reply, offering him the tin.
He takes it from your hands, the tips of his fingers slightly grazing yours, on purpose or not, youâre not sure. He lifts some of the aluminum covering the pie and peeks underneath, then hums appreciatively. âThanks, it looks really good. Iâve been living off of ready-meals and casseroles from the neighbors, so thisâll be really nice.â
âWell weâve got tons of cherries, so feel free to ask whenever you want some,â you offer, and he nods. A small silence settles between the two of you and youâre about to excuse yourself so it doesnât get awkward when he invites you in, asking if youâd like to have a piece with him.
âIf you want to, I mean. I was gonna take a break anyway,â he says somewhat coyly, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand. Youâre surprised to see him being anything else other than confident and self-assured, but it only makes him look cuter in your eyes.
âSure,â you accept with a smile, letting him lead you inside the house.
âSorry, it smells like paint all over the house. Thatâs why I was outside, doing some gardening while I aired the house out,â he explains. âLet me just get some plates and a knife out. And something for us to drink. Do you want to drink something? Iâve got water, or some iced tea or lemonade. The grandma across the street made some for me,â he says all at once, and you suppress a giggle at his sudden nervous behavior.
âSunghoon?â
âYeah?â he responds almost immediately, turning to you just as you both reach the kitchen.
âJust water is fine.â
A shy smile makes his dimples appear once again as he nods. âOkay, sounds good.â You help him carry everything to the back porch and set down the glasses and a jug of water on a table with two chairs around it.
âThe porches are the only parts I wonât have to fix up too much, for some reason.â
âYouâre going to redo the whole house yourself?â you ask, surprised, as you pour two glasses of water and he serves you a slice of cherry pie (âthere might be some stray cherry pits, so be careful,â you warn as he sets a slice on his plate).
âA lot of it, yeah, but Iâve also got some people to help out. My dadâs a carpenter so I know my way around these things, but I also know itâs better and faster to have more than one man on the job, so some guys he works with come a couple times a week.â
âYeah, with the state this house is in, youâd need more than a summer if you did everything yourself,â you comment, and he chuckles, agreeing. âMy friends and I used to make stories about how this place is haunted, you know,â you say jokingly.
âPlease donât jinx my house from the get-go,â he says, making you laugh.
âSorry, sorry. Itâll be nice seeing it all fixed-up, actually.â
âHave you lived here long?â he asks, looking at you thoughtfully as he takes another bite of the pie. âThis is really good, by the way.â
âThanks. And yeah, my whole life. I go away when semester starts but come back for the holidays and the summer.â
âSo you're a student?â
âYeah, just at the state university a few hours away. Not too far away that itâs a hassle traveling back, but not too close that I go home every weekend. What about you, what do you do?â
You wait for his answer while he swallows his mouthful and take another bite yourself. âI teach,â he starts as he dabs the corners of his lips with a napkin. âFifth graders, on the other side of town. I used to live in a small apartment near the school I work at but itâs nicer, having more space. I saved enough money to buy this house and fix it up, so here I am now,â he says, gesturing to the house and the garden with his arms.Â
You notice his use of the first person pronoun when he talks about where he used to live and his house now, which makes you wonder if itâs just him, even though you were sure you heard a woman and a young girlâs voices the other day. Surely, if he wasnât single, he wouldnât have invited you in or given you flirtatious looks, right? Or were you reading totally wrong into this and he was just an exceptionally friendly person?
You put these questions to the side and continue chatting with Sunghoon, letting the subject of his marital status come up on its own during your conversation. And indeed, you get your answer when he tells you about the different parts of the house he plans on having, one of them being a bedroom for his daughter.
âOh, so you have a daughter? How old is she?â you ask as you take a sip of water, trying to sound as nonchalant as possible. Considering his age, you expect that his child will be one, two years old max, so his answer makes you almost choke on your drink.
âSheâs turning eight this summer.â
âEight?â you repeat as you set your glass down, looking at him wide-eyed. So much for nonchalance. âBut youâre so-â
âYoung? Yeah, I know,â he interrupts with a knowing smile, probably used to this kind of reaction. âIâm 26,â he adds, then watches as you do the simple math in your head. When you turn to him with a surprised look, he answers your question before youâve even asked it. âYep, I had her when I was 18.â
âWow,â is all you can say. âCan I ask what happened?â
âSure. I mean, itâs nothing extraordinary or anything. I was in my last year of high school, and I got my girlfriend at the time pregnant. Weâd only been dating four months but her parents wouldnât let her get an abortion. Theyâre really religious. They took care of our baby, with the help of my parents, while I went to community college and she retook senior year since she had to drop out halfway through the year. No, weâre not together anymore, if youâre wondering,â he says, catching you off guard, as if heâd read your thoughts.Â
He chuckles before sighing and continues. âIf none of this had happened, weâd probably have broken up before going off to college and proceeded to forget about each other. We started out living with her parents, then got that small apartment I told you about when she found a job. Weâre not on bad terms by any means, but weâve just not been in love since Chaeryeong turned 2, probably. Weâve been more roommates than a couple for the past six years. And you know, we kept on living together for Chaer mainly, but sheâs found a new boyfriend and I wanted to have my own place. Which has led me here.â
You nod slowly, letting the whole story sink in. âYouâre both handling this situation really maturely, it sounds like. Iâve heard of so many teenage parents fighting all the time and not taking care of their kids properly.â
âSheâs already got a weird parental situation, itâs the least we can do for her to behave like adults, you know.â
âRight, of course,â you say, nodding again. Your hot new neighbor was actually a DILF, you realized a bit inappropriately, perhaps. Cherry on top.
He tells you a bit more about his daughter and you keep talking until your dad calls you, asking you why youâre not home at dinner time, and you only notice then how long youâve been sitting there with Sunghoon, just talking. You tell him you feel bad for taking up so much of his time but he shakes your apologies off.
âIt was my pleasure, really. And thanks again for the pie, I think Chaer will love it.â
He walks you to the front door and calls out your name after youâve waved goodbye and started walking. You didnât know you had been expecting him to do anything until you heard the hopeful tone in your own voice. âYeah?â
âYou any good with kids?â he asks, leaning against the doorway with crossed arms and a smirk that makes your heart flutter.
Although youâve only got one older brother, you have younger cousins as well as older ones that have babies of their own, so youâre not a complete stranger to kids, but more importantly, you like them. They have the world to learn, but they say surprisingly smart things and have really cute faces.
âIâd say that I am, yeah,â you reply, a smile growing on your face, mirroring his expression.
âGood,â he says, and pauses a second for good measure. âIâll see you later.â
âSee you later, Sunghoon,â you say as you turn back and head to your house, letting him enjoy the view of you walking away.Â
On the short way home, you realize that you completely have the hots for your neighbor, although you probably knew that before. Is it twisted that you like him more now that you know heâs got a kid? Probably a little bit, but youâre not going to fight it. Heâs single, after all. And not even thirty. A five-year gap isnât unheard of.Â
Your parents ask you where youâve been as you set the table and get ready for dinner. âJust over at our new neighborâs house to give him some pie and say hi,â you say as you toss the salad in its bowl, spreading the dressing evenly.Â
âOoh, the neighbor,â your mother echoes knowingly, wiggling her eyebrows, and steals a leaf of lettuce when it falls from the bowl because of your vigorous tossing. âWe should have him over at some point, welcome him into the neighborhood. Iâve seen him a bit, you know. Out painting on his front porch or when he was in his garden the same time as me. Heâs a very attractive young man,â she says, lowering her voice so your dad doesnât hear even though heâs outside grilling the meat. âDo you know how old he is? Looks a bit young for a homeowner to me, but who knows what young people are up to these days.
âHeâs twenty-six, and heâs saved a lot of money. Plus, I donât think that house was very expensive. From what heâs told me, the renovations will basically cost as much as the house itself. Heâs also got a kid.â
âAw, must be a cute baby,â she says as your father walks in, carrying a tray of steaming barbecued steaks and potatoes.
âSheâs eight,â you say bluntly, causing them both to look at you with wide eyes.
âOh, right, then. Happens,â your mother says, bringing her glass of water to her lips and taking a sip from it. âIs he still with the mother?â
âThey broke up a while ago, but theyâre on good terms,â you say, and your mom nods slowly at the information.
âSo, heâs single, huh?â she says, trying to hide her smile, earning herself a groan from your dad and a chuckle from you.Â
âCâmon, mom!â
âWhat? You canât deny that heâs attractive, and heâs single. Plus, you two must get along well if you spent a couple hours talking. Sure, heâs got a kid, but you love those, donât you?â
âMom, you of all people would know kids arenât pets. Dating someone with an eight-year-old isnât the same as dating someone with a cat.
âNo oneâs asking you to be that girlâs mom,â she says, dishing out some meat for the three of you. âIâd go get that man, if I were you.â
Your dad shakes his head and you eat your food as you listen to them bickering with a smile. You think about what your mother said - should you go and get Sunghoon? Your heart says yes, but your brain is a bit more reluctant. Another part of your body, lower down there, is screaming âyesâ at you.
He does live right by, after all.
That night, you FaceTime your roommate and best friend from college and bring her up to date about âthe hot man from the store the other day.â She paints her toenails but listens intently as she always does when you talk about boys, humming and chuckling here and there.
âGod, Y/N, I didnât know you had daddy issues, of all things.â
You gasp fake-dramatically. âExcuse me, I do not! I was attracted to him before I knew he was a dad, Iâll let you know.â
âYeah, yeah, whatever. Let me know when you guys actually hook up, Iâm curious whether older men are actually better,â she says, making you scoff.
âI hope he is. Iâm very much tired of those boys that donât know where the clit is and use too much tongue.â
âYou know, when I complain to my mom about guys, she always tells me to wait it out a few years. She says they get more mature and, well, she didnât say that outright, but she very heavily implied that the sex is much, much better. Kinda gross hearing it from her, but itâs good information.â
You hum. âWell, heâs not that much older⌠But letâs hope that it still makes a difference,â you say, and then move on to another topic.Â
â
One thing that eating cherries has taught you is that if you want to enjoy eating the sweet flesh, youâll need to deal with the pit as well. Ever the grand philosopher, you realized soon enough that this was applicable to real life and not just your favorite fruit. Wanna get a good grade on your test? Gotta study for it. Wanna go on holiday to Mexico? Gotta find a summer job and earn money.
Wanna make your way to Sunghoonâs bed? Gotta seduce him.
Over the following days, you stand behind the counter at the hardware store, elbow perched on the hard surface, head resting on your palm and vision fuzzy as you daydream about your next encounter with Sunghoon. More often than not, a customer will clear their throat to awkwardly let you know of their presence and youâll have to exchange your imagined dialogue with Sunghoon for a quick apology and some pleasantries; more often than not, a coworker will call out your name for some help just as you get to the juicy part of your reverie. In those moments, you always feel like youâve been caught red-handed watching softcore porn, even if no one knows the last thing about what goes on in your head, nor do they care.Â
Much like the first time he walked into the store, when he does again on a Thursday morning, you think your daydreams have just gone too far and youâre now hallucinating. But, lo and behold, this is the true Park Sunghoon in the flesh, and he smiles and waves at you as he strides in before disappearing behind one of the many aisles.
You spend the next fifteen minutes going over witty conversation starters that will surely make him fall for you, only for you to stutter out a âh-hi, Sunghoon,â when he finally reaches the counter.
âFancy seeing you here,â he jokes, and you laugh a bit too hard for a comment that isnât that funny.
âHow are the renovations going?â you ask as you scan his articles - some more paint and brushes, lots of tile glue, a bunch of nails and two different sizes of turnscrews. He frowns in concentration at the snacks next to the counter until he caves in and gets a chocolate protein bar thatâs more sugar than protein.Â
âPretty okay,â he starts. âIâm in a bit of a rush, cause Chaer is already coming in two weeks and I need to have finished at least the interior by that time. My dadâs friends helped me get the roof done, so thatâs good, but now theyâre all busy with other sites so it's just me. Right now Iâm redoing the tiles in the bathrooms. You need so much damn glue,â he says with a chuckle.
You think for a second, then timidly offer, âI could help out, you know. If you needed me to.âÂ
He looks at you with raised eyebrows, halfway through getting his card out of his wallet. âReally?â
âI mean, I donât have much experience with this kinda stuff, but Iâve picked up a few things here and there from working here. If it saves you time, I could do the easy things. This job isnât particularly physically demanding so Iâve still got energy at the end of the day. Thatâs $78.96, please.â
A small smile appears on his face as he inserts his card into the reader. He punches in his code and then returns your gaze. âThat could be nice, actually.â
And thatâs how you find yourself over at Sunghoonâs house in denim shorts and your dadâs old t-shirts almost everyday for the next two weeks, helping him fix up the old two-storey home. He measures out the perfect length for wood planks or marble tiles that you assist him in fastening to the floors of different rooms and he fixes holes in walls that you paint over afterwards. Sometimes on your breaks, you share a bowl of cherries that you brought from your garden. (One morning, you tried to make cherry juice out of them, but when after almost two hours of pitting the liquid barely filled a glass, you decided that it was too much effort and that youâd keep on just eating them and baking the occasional pie.) You asked him to tell you what each of the rooms upstairs would be and you realized that the window of his room faced yours directly. The blinds were down as they had always been, so you hadnât known what the room would be.
âIâve been sleeping on the couch since I havenât gotten around to fixing up this room yet. Guess I should get to it, though,â he says, giving you a look that blurs the meaning of his words so that youâre not sure what heâs implying, which happens a bit too often with Sunghoon.
And youâd think that spending the better part of two weeks with the current man of your dreams would be amazing, right?Â
Wrong. Itâs unbearable.
Maybe thatâs exaggerating it - itâs mostly fun, and sometimes unbearable. Usually, youâre an avid fan of sexual tension, especially with attractive men like Sunghoon. Lingering gazes, eye contacts when there shouldnât be any, remarks with a deeper meaning that they let on, barely-there touches on the back of your hand or on your waist that manage to take your breath away. These are all very fine things that keep your heart bouncing and a blush on your cheeks, but they are supposed to amount to something more in the end. Maybe youâre impatient, but after two weeks of sending sex through your eyes to Sunghoon, you get the feeling that he doesnât reciprocate your desire. One afternoon, youâd made sure to go and sunbathe in your bikini at the exact moment he was doing some work outside, and even then, he merely gave your body a one-over and disappeared a few minutes later inside his house. When he came back about ten minutes later, he could still barely look at you.
At the same time, thereâs no way he doesnât know what heâs doing when he stands close behind you, letting you feel the warmth of his chest against your back, big, rough hands enveloping yours as he demonstrates how to cut a plank of wood with the machine. Thereâs no way the way he smirks when the action turns you into a stammering mess is innocent, either.
Yet nothing happens. The tension is thick enough to be cut with a knife, but maybe Sunghoon hasnât bought cutlery yet. The air is already heavy from the heat and the relentlessness of the sun, but this thing between you and him makes it almost suffocating, in somehow the best yet worst way possible. Youâre this close to simply throwing your naked body at him, and it doesnât help that you see his flexing, working muscles and beads of sweat on his hairline everyday. On the days he wears shorts, which is most days, all you can think of is getting off on his thick thighs, of his hands holding you tightly by the waist, of the way heâd look at you, eyes clouded over, of the words heâd whisper in your-
Your phone buzzes, interrupting you in your horny downward spiral. Itâs your dear mother telling you to come home for dinner. As you pick up your phone, a second buzz. Ask Sunghoon if he wants to eat with us.Â
You find him in his bedroom, adding the last touches to the walls. âI think Iâll be able to sleep here starting tomorrow night. I just need to go buy a bed,â he says when he sees your figure standing in the doorway.
âWe can go together if you want,â you blurt before you can stop yourself. Hoping itâll make you seem less weird, you add, âIâve got really good taste in furniture.â
âIs that so?â he questions, turning to you with a smile. âIâd appreciate the second pair of eyes, actually. Thereâs a lot of things I need to get.â
âYeah, I didnât wanna comment on it, but I think youâll end up needing more than a couch, a plastic dining table and two chairs,â you tease, making him roll his eyes lightheartedly. âWe can go to that huge second-hand store they have just outside of town. Youâll be surprised how good - and cheap - the furniture is there.â
âSounds good,â he nods, and checks his watch. âAre you going home?â
âI am. My momâs invited you over for dinner, if youâd like,â you say, tilting your head at him.
He raises his eyebrows in delighted surprise. âIâd love to. Just need to shower first.â
âThatâs fine. Iâll go home, just come over whenever youâre ready.â You exchange quick see you laters and you head home, taking a shower yourself and making sure to use your best-smelling body lotion.
Sunghoon arrives half an hour later with a bouquet of roses in his hands and an award-winning smile on his face. You let him in and he greets your parents, offering your mother the bouquet. âSorry I took so much time getting here, I wanted to pick these out as a thank you.â
You can tell your mother is pleased to the heavens as she waves him off, leading him inside your house. âThatâs awfully nice of you, Mr Park-â
âCall me Sunghoon, please,â he says with a warm smile.
âRight, Sunghoon. And no worries, youâre just on time. Please, sit.â
âIs there anything I can do to help?â
âOh, no, youâre working all day fixing up that house, just sit and relax. Weâre very happy to have you over, arenât we?â your mother says, sending a very obvious smile your way, which makes you furrow your eyebrows and shake your head lightly at her, silently telling her to shut up. Sunghoon chuckles at the exchange but says nothing and you want to bury yourself and your mother ten feet underground.
Sunghoon sits across from you at the dinner table, which allows you to stare unabashedly at him as he works his charm on your parents. Heâs the neighbor, so technically, heâs not a boyfriend you brought home to meet them, but still, you canât help but compare him to those few boys that you did bring home. None of them were a disaster, but none of them went as smoothly as this, either. There were always some awkward silences and dry chuckles with your past boyfriends, but Sunghoon clearly knows how to make parents happy. Maybe because he lived with his exâs parents for so long, or maybe because heâs a parent himself. Either way, it only adds to your desire to take all of his clothes and let him rail you into next week. Too bad he clearly doesnât feel the same way, you remind yourself with an audible sigh, which makes him look curiously at you, but you brush it off with a smile.
You watch as he accepts a beer, compliments the food and the house, talks football with your dad, accepts another beer, and shares teaching anecdotes with your mom, who herself is an elementary school teacher. You jump in every now and then when you have something witty to add or someone asks your opinion on something, but most of the time, you sit back and enjoy, happy that everything is going well.Â
You bring out your infamous cherry pie that youâd baked the previous day along with some vanilla ice cream for dessert, and smile when Sunghoon tells you how much heâd been waiting to have some of it again, trying not to blush as his gaze stays focused on yours for a second too long. Thankfully, your parents donât notice, too busy cutting themselves a slice.Â
He stays for another hour or so, until the sun has set and the streetlamps and the moonlight are the only things keeping the world visible. Your mom forces him to accept tupperwares full of leftovers from the night and makes him promise to come back with his daughter. Sneakily, she tells you to help him carry the tupperwares home even though heâs more than able to do it himself, then hugs him goodbye, hurrying you out of the door.
Sunghoon hasnât yet changed the lightbulbs to more efficient ones, so his kitchen bathes in the faint glow of the overhead lighting as you put away the leftovers in his fridge. He stands a bit to your right close behind you, closer than needed to simply hand you the tupperwares he was holding. When everything is stored, you turn around, but youâre trapped between his body and his arm that holds the fridge door open. With his free hand, he takes you by the waist and pulls you gently towards him. âCareful,â he says so quietly, itâs almost a whisper, and closes the fridge door behind you.Â
Heâs never been this forward with you, and even though youâve fantasized many times about this exact moment, now that itâs really happening, you donât know what to do except to search for an explanation in his eyes. His eyes that are looking right into yours and are a bit clouded over, from the alcohol or the proximity between the two of you or both, you donât know, but that also have the twinkle of a smile in them.Â
His lips are close enough to kiss, you think, and as if on cue, his gaze drifts down to your slightly parted lips. âYouâre very pretty, Y/N,â he says, before sealing your lips with his own. You respond immediately to his kiss - youâve thought too much about it to stand there and do nothing - but itâs all so slow and so soft that youâre not sure if itâs actually happening, so dreamlike it all feels.
Youâre called back to reality when his other hand finds your waist, your own hands coming up to his shoulders before one of them snakes its way to the nape of his neck, tugging lightly at his hair. This seems to change something in Sunghoon, who all of a sudden tightens his hold on your waist, his arms wrapping around it to bring you closer to him. His kiss gets faster and deeper too, and, to your surprise but not your distaste, a bit desperate. Youâre happy if you have on him half of the power he has on you. You taste sweet vanilla ice cream and tangy beer on his tongue, and itâs not at all unpleasant. It makes you want to eat cherries together so you can then taste them in his kiss.Â
A lustful sigh escapes your lips and then the warmth disappears all at once. Sunghoon looks at you like you just woke him up from a deep slumber and takes a step back away from you. You call out for him worriedly and the sound of his name seems to make him think he did something terribly wrong.
âI-Iâm sorry, Y/N, I donât know what came over me. We shouldnât do this, itâs not- I shouldnât have done that,â he sighs, looking defeatedly at the ground.
âWhy?â you ask quietly, almost inaudible.
âYou should go home,â he snaps, then closes his eyes as if in pain, cringing at his harsh tone. âIâm sorry. I think you should go home, itâs getting late,â he repeats, softer this time, but the words still sting.
âO-okay,â you say to the floor, already feeling tears well up in your eyes. You feel like you just got rejected by your high school crush, and the humiliation makes you want to crawl into a hole and die.Â
Sunghoon sighs again. âIâll let you know tomorrow about the furniture shopping, yeah? Chaeryeong is coming in the morning so we can go with her.â
âO-okay,â you repeat, surprised he still wants to do that with you. âGood night, Sunghoon,â you say without looking at him and scurry out of his house.
âGood night, Y/N,â Sunghoon answers to the emptiness after youâve left, touching his lips with the tips of his fingers and feeling the ghost of your kiss there.
â
Truth be told, you havenât always loved cherries. Because of a heinous lie your older brother had made you believe when you were just six years old, you hadnât eaten cherries for two summers in a row. It was the summer your parents had finally allowed you to eat cherries as they came from the trees in your backyard - beforehand, theyâd been too scared that youâd choke on the pit or swallow it unknowingly, and had always prepared purĂŠes or other forms that cherries can take for you to eat, so to be finally handed the small fruit and told âgo ahead, try it,â felt like an honor.Â
A simple âdonât forget to spit out the pitâ from your mother had sufficed for you to be careful, and yet, your brother had thought a fear tactic would be more effective. âIf you swallow it, a tree will grow inside your belly and make you puke out cherries,â heâd lied when it was just the two of you at the outdoor table.Â
âReally?â you asked him in disbelief, horror written all over your face as you looked at the seemingly harmless yet deadly fruit in your hand. Youâd already eaten two and were in the middle of eating a third; your brother nodding âyesâ in response was all it took for you to spit out the cherry furiously and immediately start sobbing, afraid youâd swallowed one even though all three pits were right there on the table, a guarantee that no unwanted flora would grow inside of you.Â
Your mother rushed outside at the sound of your wailing and quickly put two and two together when she saw your brother laughing uncontrollably while you hid your face in your hands, desolately imagining your future as a walking cherry tree. She held you tight in her arms as she told your brother off and reassured you that he was just playing a stupid prank on you. Still, the simple thought of swallowing a pit had terrified you and you were unable to eat cherries for the remainder of the summer and the one after that.
This is the story you tell Chaeryeong and her dad as the three of you sit outside together, making them laugh - although, a few minutes later, when Sunghoon is gone to the bathroom away, Chaer leans over the table and whispers, âItâs not true, is it?â so you reassure her that youâve eaten cherries your whole life and have never had one single root take life in your tummy.Â
Itâs been a bit over a week after you shared that kiss in his kitchen, and the awkward atmosphere is just starting to fade. Youâre glad he didnât ignore you after that night, even if pretending nothing happened when both of you are very aware that something did happen is only the slightly better alternative. Itâs a refreshing change from boys that sleep with you and then act like you donât exist, for sure.
The kiss hasnât done anything to burst the tension; if anything, itâs made it even more electric. You catch him looking at your lips more than once and you wonder why he still acts the same way as before when heâs made it very clear he didnât think kissing you was a good idea. Catching him shirtless one night in his bedroom doesnât help, and neither does him catching you staring at him - youâd quickly shut the curtains, but it was too late, and heâd seen you ogling his toned chest and abs.
At least, the fact that Chaeryeong is here forces a bubbly atmosphere upon you, and you hope youâre not crazy when you notice him fondly looking at the both of you interacting. Chaer is an outgoing little girl and seems to have liked you as soon as you complimented the toy puppy in her hand, saying you used to have the same and it was your favorite.
The day you went food shopping was practically hell to get through. One evening, you were holding onto Sunghoon for dear life, finally kissing him, and the next afternoon, you were browsing through the endless aisles of your local IKEA, holding his daughterâs hand and pretending like you hadnât kissed her daddy.
When it got to the bedroom part of the store, you and Chaer decided to try all the mattresses and find the most comfortable one. You usually were never one for seating and laying on random beds in stores, but there was a kid with you, so you were sure itâd be fine. When you found the one you liked most, you looked up at Sunghoon from your position and said, âThis oneâs pretty good, Sunghoon.â His immediately reddening cheeks told you everything you needed to know and you quickly sat up, clearing your throat. He tested the mattress by pushing his palm against it and muttered a âyeah, itâs pretty goodâ before scribbling down the number of the mattress onto the small sheet of paper customers use to remember which products they wanted.
Of course, now that Chaer is with him and most of the work in the house is done, save for some minor things that Sunghoon can finish up on his own, you spend a lot less time together. You hate that you miss him so much. You miss the way he makes you feel, like your whole body is on fire with just one look or one touch, the way his stupid jokes make you laugh or how endeared he looks when he talks about his daughter. Seeing him with her only adds to your stupid crush - heâs doting, protective and caring, makes sure she has everything to be happy and manages to treat her at once like the kid that she is but also like a human that has opinions and feelings. Heâs a really good dad, and that does nothing whatsoever to stop your DILF fantasies, although now, itâs really Sunghoon that you want, and the fact that heâs a dad isnât a dealbreaker, it just makes him that much better.
You hate that you miss him, and yet being with him is somehow worse, because you canât do any of the things you want to do. You fall asleep one two many nights dreaming about his lips and how nice itâd be to feel them again - on your lips, on your neck, everywhere. You want to feel him everywhere, and this longing lust is starting to drive you crazy. Youâd never wanted anyone this much.
He invites you over for dinner one night, and the look he gives you when he opens the door sends a shiver right down your spine. âHi, Y/N.âÂ
âHi, Sunghoon.â
He leads you into the kitchen with a hand on your waist, even though youâve been in his house many times before and need no assistance getting there. A small, horny voice at the back of your head tells you that tonight may be the night, but you quickly shut it down, not wanting to get your hopes up all on your own.
Sunghoon serves you a glass of red wine, and you ask him what the occasion is. âJust to celebrate the house being almost done,â he answers with a smile.
Dinner would have gone as usual if Sunghoon wasnât practically staring you down the whole time, eyes full of something you canât quite put your finger on and that drives you crazy. His gaze lingers on you every time you speak, and he punctuates the syllables of your name like heâs trying to get a feel for them on his tongue.
Your heart is pounding in your chest when the clock strikes nine p.m. and itâs time for Chaeryeong to go to bed - you donât know if youâll be able to handle being alone with Sunghoon, and you might have to make a run for it, Cinderella-style.Â
Chaer goes to the bathroom to wash up and change into her pajamas, and when she comes back, she asks - no, demands - that youâre the one who tucks her in, and who are you to say no to the cutest little girl on Earth? She holds you by the pinky as she drags you up the stairs to her room then buries herself in her covers, tapping on the bed next to her body for you to sit there. âOkay, now we can talk without Dad around,â she says all business-like.
She tells you about the boys at her school and the birthday party she went to last week and the latest drama with her friends. The both of you are too busy chatting and giggling to hear footsteps coming up the stairs and stopping at her door, hiding behind the wall. After ten minutes, she yawns loudly and says, âCan you call Dad? I think heâll be sad if he doesnât wish me good night.â
âOf course,â you reply and kiss her on the forehead, wishing her a good night yourself. Youâre only half-surprised to find Sunghoon at the doorway, waiting for his cue.
âWait up for me, yeah? Iâll just be a minute,â he says, that smile still on his lips, that smile that keeps you hoping.
âOkay,â you whisper, and head downstairs, nervously taking a sip from your wine glass as you wait for him on the living room couch.
He is indeed back in a very short time, too short a time for your nerves to settle, so when he sits down close to you on the couch, body turned towards yours, you can feel your heart in your throat. He traces the rim of his glass with the tip of his pointer finger and you both watch the slow movement for a bit, a heavy silence hanging over both of your heads. You wait for him to talk because youâre too scared of what you might say if you start the conversation.
âY/N, Iâve been thinking,â he starts shakily, âabout um, our kiss, the other day-â
âOh, we donât need to talk about that,â you quickly interrupt, waving your hand in dismissal at him. âYou made it clear you didnât like it-â
âNo, thatâs the thing-â
âAnd that you thought it was a bad idea-â
âNo, just listen-â
âSo letâs just forget about it, and-â
âY/N,â Sunghoon says in a stern voice, raising his tone just enough to make you stop in your rambling.
âYeah?â you look up at him, eyes wide open. Expecting, as always.
âI havenât once stopped thinking about that kiss,â he says, sounding out-of-breath. âI handled it awfully, and Iâm so sorry that I made you feel like I didnât like it, because, God, I liked it. A lot,â he chuckles. âMaybe even too much.â
There they are, the words youâve been dying to hear. Yet all you can say is a stupid âOh.â
âI just⌠I was tipsy, and Chaeryeong was coming the next morning, and I panicked. I didnât know what to do for the rest of the week, and you didnât say anything, so I didnât, either. But I canât pretend like it isnât there.â
âLike what isnât there?â you echo, voice almost low as a whisper.
âYou know⌠this,â he replies, voice as low as yours. Slowly, one of his hands comes up to trace your jawline. You release a shaky breath as you set your wine glass on the coffee table and rest your hand on his knee.
âAre you sure about this? âCause if you tell me that you want me⌠then Iâll be all yours, Sunghoon,â you murmur, hands slowly sliding up his thigh. He takes you by the wrist and puts your hand right on top of his already growing erection, letting you know exactly how he feels about you.
âGod, canât you see what you do to me? I want you so bad, Y/N,â he almost growls, and with that, his lips are on yours, trapping you into a kiss far hungrier and more ferocious than the previous kiss, your mutual intentions finally laid out in front of you for you both to see.
Sunghoon wastes no time as he grabs you by the waist and brings you to his lap, sitting you on top of his crotch so that you can feel his hardening cock against your core. The kiss turns desperate in mere seconds, and youâre relieved to see that Sunghoon seems to have been waiting for this as long and with as much ardor as you have. Your hands are fisting his hair, tugging almost harshly, while his hands roam the expanse of your back until they settle on your ass, grabbing at it to press you closer to him. You canât stop yourself from moaning into his mouth when his erection rubs over your core in just the right way, and he takes that opportunity to add tongue to the kiss, deepening it.
You start to grind yourself against him, which he helps you do by slightly rutting his hips into yours and bringing your ass closer at every movement. Quickly, you fall into a rhythm so perfect and that feels so good, you think you might explode right then and there. Forget riding his thigh, this is infinitely better.
Needing to catch your breath, you pull away from the kiss, but your lips find his jaw immediately and you start pressing wet, needy kisses there and down his neck, sucking in some spots so that light bruises appear. âFuck, Y/N, that feels so nice,â he breathes, eyes shut closed. His scent drives you crazy, and his small praise makes you double down on your actions, almost biting the soft skin of his neck.
As you continue kissing him there, occasionally returning to his lips for more, his hands roam your thighs and then up your back, snaking themselves under your t-shirt and finding the clasp of your bra, quickly doing away with it. He pulls away just so he can help you out of your top and takes your bra off of you, hands caressing your sides as he admires your half-naked body in all its glory. You take his hands and bring them to your chest, resting your hands on top of his as you continue grinding onto him and let him play with your boobs. âYouâre so fucking hot,â he practically moans, making you chuckle. You reach for the hem of his t-shirt, because itâs only fair that you get to see him too, and you bite back a moan when he uses the absence of your hands on his to pinch your nipples lightly, then takes one in his mouth, catching you off-guard. You forget all about your plan of undressing him as his tongue flicks at the perked bud, your hands finding his hair again as you moan unabashedly.Â
âS-Sunghoon,â you breathe, the combined feelings of his now fully hard cock pressing against your clothed but soaking cunt and of his warm mouth around your nipples really getting to your head and making you see stars, so that all you can say is his name. âPlease,â you beg, youâre not sure what for. Mercy, perhaps. Or release.
âPlease what, baby?â he asks, and the nickname goes straight to your core.
âI donât- just, please, Sunghoon, please,â you say incoherently, making him chuckle.
âOkay,â he says as if he can read your mind, and you think he actually does when he lays you down on the couch, fingers finding the zipper of your shorts. He unbuttons them and slides them down your legs along with your soaked panties. He makes sure theyâre fully off of your body before running his palms up both of your legs, from your ankles to your hips.
âDonât tease, please,â you plead, too desperate for him to take his time.
âAs you wish, princess,â he smirks, and brings a finger to your folds, sliding it down to gather some slick before pushing it inside your hole. Your back arches as an instant response to his touch and you let out a small whine, already craving for more. âFuck, so wet, and all for me, yeah?â he questions, his eyes not once leaving your glistening pussy.
âYes,â you breathe out, mind too fuzzy to produce a longer sentence.
âThatâs a good girl,â he coos, and adds another finger, pushing all three of his knuckles in and massaging your sweet spot as soon as he finds it. When heâs found a rhythm for his motions, he finally looks up at you and curses himself for not having watched your face earlier. Head tilted back in pleasure, mouth agape as your breathing gets more and more irregular and eyebrows scrunched together, you look like the definition of sex, and it takes everything in Sunghoon to not start touching himself.
He forces himself to look away from you only to focus back on your pussy and notices your swollen clit that is begging for attention. He licks it tentatively, and when your back arches at the feeling of his tongue on you, he dives in completely, licking a stripe up your folds before wrapping his lips around the bud and sucking at it like he did with your nipples earlier. The pace at which his fingers are pumping out of you quickens and youâre pulling so hard at his hair, you think you might rip some strands off. You feel yourself getting close, and youâre reminded of all those frustrating encounters with college boys where they stopped right before you came, so you canât stop yourself as you desperately chant âoh my God please donât stop please donât stop,â not even noticing the way youâre holding his head down against your clit and bucking your hips into his face.
Your orgasm hits you like a truck - this is probably the first one youâve received from someone other than your own hand or your vibrator in the past year and a half. It takes your breath away, and youâre left gasping for air for a good thirty seconds, your mind reeling from the intensity of such pleasure. When you calm down, you lift your head to look at Sunghoon whoâs already watching you with a grin on his face, your slick coating his chin and mouth.
You plop your head back down with a groan when realization hits you. âIâm sor-â
âDonât even finish that sentence,â Sunghoon commands, hands rubbing your still-trembling thighs. âThat was the hottest thing Iâve ever seen in my life,â he marvels, and you canât help but giggle.
âReally?â
âReally.â
After another couple of seconds, you sit up on the couch and send Sunghoon a mischievous look. My turn, you think, and if his smile is any indicator then he seems to have understood. âLet me thank you,â you say, gesturing at him to sit up himself as you lower yourself to your knees on the couch in front of him.
You look up at him from between his thighs then unclasp his belt and undo his jeans. He lets out a shaky breath and says, âYou donât need to do this, you know-â
âDonât be a gentleman, Sunghoon. I want to do this and I know you want it too. Itâs pretty obvious,â you tease as you run your hand over his erection, watching in delight as his eyebrows furrow and his eyes close. âNow help me get these off of you.â He nods and raises his hips so you can take his jeans and underwear off, imitating his actions from before as you take your time to get them over his ankles and caressing his legs until they reach his crotch, watching as he takes his t-shirt off as well so that you can finally see him entirely. Youâd caught glimpse of him shirtless before as he worked in his garden, but the sight still manages to take your breath away. Taut muscles and sun-tanned skin, laid bare right before you. This is what they mean by sculpted like a Greek god, you think.
You havenât done anything, yet his head is already laid back against the top of the couch, Adamâs apple bobbing up and down as he gulps in expectation and chest rising visibly at every intake of breath. You mustâve saved a thousand souls in your previous life to be deserving of such an image.
You spit in your palm before taking him, starting out by slowly moving your hand up and down his shaft, then rubbing small circles against his tip, the small moan-like sighs that leave his lips letting you know youâre doing a good job. You gather some saliva in your mouth and spit on his length to add some lubricant and smirk when he lets out a low fuck. You bring your head closer and lick his balls, taking one at a time in your mouth and sucking very gently, making the volume of his moans increase. âJust like- fuck, just like that, Y/N.â
You then lick a long stripe up his cock and swirl your tongue around his tip when you reach it, humming at the taste of precum there. Sunghoon gathers your hair in a makeshift ponytail so it doesnât get in your way, and finally looks down at you, blown away by the beautiful sight of your flushed cheeks and your mouth around his cock. He groans when you take him deeper and unconsciously bucks his hips into your throat, making you gag around him. He loves that feeling but doesnât want to hurt you so he grabs your face and makes you look up at him, lust and worry written all over his face as he apologizes, but you quickly stop him. âItâs okay, I like it. You can do it again,â you say, and smile before wrapping your lips around him once more.
âFuck, are you sure?â he asks and you hum, sending vibrations all over his body.
âGod, o-okay,â he says, in disbelief that youâre okay with him practically fucking your throat and even liking it. And you do like it - you love letting him use your mouth to get off, just like you had earlier with him. He must have amazing core strength because heâs able to buck his hips into your mouth rapidly as he holds your head tight in his hands. The way you keep coming back for more every time he lets you breathe is enough to drive him crazy, but after a couple minutes, he stops you from taking him in your mouth again.
âI canât- I donât wanna cum like this,â he breathes, looking just as fucked-out as you do.
âWhere, then?â you ask, kissing him all over his thighs as he trails his fingers through your hair. âInside?â
He groans at the offer but shakes his head, eyes shut as if trying to calm himself down. âI havenât got any condoms.â
âIâm on the pill,â you tell him, still pressing kisses on his warm skin. Youâre far too desperate to feel him inside you to let a lack of condom stop you, especially when you donât even need one.
He lets out an umpteenth shaky breath and makes you look up at him. âAre you sure?â
âSunghoon,â you say, looking him dead in the eyes, âIâve never been more sure of anything.â Youâre relieved when he smiles and nods, bending down to trap your lips in a heated kiss for good measure. Something about being in this position, kneeling in front of his spread thighs and having to look up at him, turns you on even more.
âOkay, then,â he says, still smiling as he pulls away, holding you gently by the chin. âI donât think Iâll be able to last long, and I want to feel you cum around me. So, tell me, whatâs your favorite position, princess?â
The question takes you aback but you answer it anyway, looking at the ground. âReverse cowgirlâŚâ you admit shyly, a small smile spreading on your lips.
âReverse cowgirl, huh?â Sunghoon repeats, and you donât need to look at him to know heâs smirking. âCome here, then,â he says, and helps you up, making you turn around so your back faces him and seats you down on top of him, keeping your hips raised. He takes his cock inside his hands, pumps it a few more times before guiding it to your entrance, pressing kisses to your shoulders and nape to make you relax.Â
You moan at the simple feeling of his tip teasing your entrance and Sunghoon whispers âI know, babyâ against your skin. âSit down for me,â he commands gently, and you oblige, lowering your hips slowly to feel all of him stretching you out, the both of you moaning in synchronization when he bottoms out.
Sunghoon wraps an arm around your middle and pulls you onto him so that your back rests against his chest and you can let your head hang back next to his. âLet me do all the work, yeah?â he murmurs into your ear, and you hum in response. He doesnât move for a bit, roaming his large hands all over your body until he feels your walls relax around him. One of his hands finds your breasts, playing with each nipple in turn, while the other finds your clit. Itâs all so much but so good that youâre already a moaning mess before heâs even started moving. âReady?â he asks, but youâre too far gone to answer.
His pace starts out slow, but youâre impatient and whine as you try to move your hips against his to go faster, which makes him tut. âI told you Iâd do the work, didnât I?â he asks, pinching one of your nipples in reprimand. âSo be good for me and stay still, Y/N. I promise Iâll make you feel good.â You whine again but stop moving, heeding his words.
âPerfect,â he whispers and kisses your neck before picking up the pace, shushing you when your moans get too loud.
âIâm sorry, just feels too good,â you manage to let out.
âI know, but you need to stay quiet, baby,â he says, yet gets rougher with his thrusts, which does not help in the slightest. His hand that was on your breasts comes up to cover your mouth, but he quickly decides to make you suck on two of his fingers instead, muffling your moans a bit.
His fingers on your clit havenât relented this whole time and after just a few minutes, you feel that familiar knot tying itself again in your stomach and you know youâre mere moments away from it coming undone. Judging by his rapid but clumsy thrusts, Sunghoon must be close too. He pounds into you like youâve been wanting him to ever since you first set eyes on him as he entered the hardware store, hitting your g-spot over and over again. Tears roll down your cheeks and you whimper around his fingers, biting down on them as your second orgasm hits you.
Youâre practically sobbing as he helps you ride out your high, his movements sending your body into pleasant overstimulation until he reaches his high too, the feeling of your pussy clenching tightly around him pushing him over the edge. Ropes of his semen paint your walls white, and thereâs enough of it for him to become a father of two. You whine as he pulls away, and feel his cum slipping out of you and onto the couch underneath you. Before you can catch your breath, he asks, âBaby, can I do something very dirty?â and you nod without thinking much. This man could do anything he wanted to you, and youâd thank him for it.
He settles you back down onto the couch, kneels on the floor, head level with your core, and sticks his tongue inside your hole, making you yelp in surprise and overstimulation. You donât understand what heâs doing until he comes back up and makes you open your mouth with his thumb, then spits inside it, telling you to swallow. You do as he says and taste his cum, laughing in disbelief at what he just did - and at how much you liked it. âFuck,â you giggle.
âWas that too much?âÂ
âGod, no,â you say, and he smiles. You open your arms, gesturing for him to get back on the couch. He rests his head between your breasts, the both of you sighing in contentment as he rubs small circles on your belly and you graze your fingers through his hair. Heâs so silent that you think heâs fallen asleep, but he speaks up after a while, voice soft and calm like youâve never heard before.
âWe should go get cleaned upâŚâ he says, and you hum in agreement, â...but itâs so nice here,â he finishes, making you giggle.
âIf we get cleaned up quickly now, we can cuddle in bed right afterwards,â you argue.
âYouâre right. Infallible logic. Youâre so smart, you know that, Y/N?â he says, and you can hear the smile in his voice.
âOf course I know that,â you joke. âLetâs go,â you say, kissing the top of his head.
You take a shower together, cleaning each other and leaving kisses here and there, or touching in places you shouldnât touch and that maybe lead to more, right there in the shower. Now that youâve had a taste, youâre insatiable, and you warn Sunghoon that the both of you are in for a very long night, to which he answers that he wouldnât have it any other way.
Once you do fall asleep, (which isnât until two rounds later, and youâre surprised either of you have this much energy), however, youâre holding each other tightly, the fan on high so that you donât feel all sticky, being so close to each other. Even if you wake up here and there because he shuffled or he snored too loudly, itâs one of the best sleeps youâve ever had.
â
You wake up the next morning by small giggles and snorts that come from none other than Park Chaeryeong herself, whoâs buried herself between you and her dad, shaking her body to wake the two of you. Youâre glad that you listened to Sunghoon when he told you to put on a t-shirt of his as well as some underwear so neither you or Chaer would have a fright when she came and woke you up as she liked to do every morning. âYou had a sleepover!â she exclaims excitedly when she sees youâve finally opened your eyes, looking at her with a sleepy expression and a smile.
âWe did!â you reply, trying to keep the same level of excitement.
âWe did,â Sunghoon repeats, taking his daughter in her arms to hug her tightly and blows a raspberry in her neck to make her laugh.
âYou didnât invite me!â she shrieks when her dadâs left her alone.
âSorry, sweetheart. It was just me and Y/N.â
âNo fun,â she pouts, laying on her back and crossing over arms before turning back to her dad. âSo, is Y/N my new mom?â she whispers even though youâre right there. You gasp at her question, making wide eyes at Sunghoon who just snorts, and you canât tell if sheâs genuinely asking or if sheâs an eight-year-old with an advanced sense of irony.
âOf course not. Is Heeseung your new dad?â he asks, mentioning his exâs new boyfriend. Chaer shakes her head.
âNo. Heâs Mommyâs boyfriend.â
âExactly, and Y/N is Daddyâs girlfriend. Isnât she?â he asks, raising an eyebrow at you, smirking.
âShe is,â you reply, and Chaer turns back to you, giggling. She snuggles close to you, wrapping an arm around your middle, and youâre taken aback by the sheer cuteness of it all. You look at Sunghoon with a fake pained expression, and he smiles endearingly at the two of you before sighing and joining you in your hug. He rests his arms around you and his daughter, kissing the top of your heads in turn.Â
âMy girls,â he mutters in your hair, and you smile peacefully.
Thereâs a lot of things you have to talk about with Sunghoon. You know your parents - especially your mom - will be okay with the two of you together, but will his parents be? And once semester starts again, what will happen? Youâll have to go back to campus and heâll have to stay here - will a three-hour drive be a dealbreaker, or will you make it work?
The thing is, thereâs no point in thinking about all of this at this moment. Youâve got the whole summer to figure things out. For now, youâll eat cherries and spit out the pits, and everything will be perfect.
this is a one shot, there will not be a part two!

Noisy Neighbor pt. 2
pt. 2 to this request
@watermelonslut
lando norris x neighbor!reader
Ever since that night, things between you and Lando had changed for the better. Now, when you passed each other in the hall, you no longer felt irritated. Youâd even watched a few F1 races to see if he really was as good as he said. When he was away, he texted to "check in on his apartment" but always ended up steering the conversation toward how you were doing.
You werenât sure what to make of this new dynamic. On one hand, Lando was undeniably attractive and fun to be around. But as a new F1 fan, youâd read the headlinesâplayboy, cocky, self-centered. So, for now, you convinced yourself to keep things friendly, neighborly. At least, thatâs what you kept telling yourself.
On Friday morning, you were gearing up for a focused workday when a knock at the door interrupted you.
"Can I help you?" you asked, puzzled to see a delivery guy holding a coffee and pastry bag from the cafe down the street.
"Delivery for Y/N," he said, extending the bag toward you.
"I didnât order anything," you replied, confused.
"Looks like it was ordered by a Lando Norris," he clarified, checking the receipt, and you felt a warm flutter in your chest.
Reluctantly, you took the bag, smiling as you closed the door. Peeking inside, you saw a slice of pumpkin breadâyour favorite.
Y/N: Thanks for the pick-me-up. Is this a pre-apology for something you're doing tonight?
LN: MaybeâŚ
Y/N: What time are you back?
LN: Around 5. Having a few friends over, so you've been warned.
Y/N: Define âa few.â
LN: No comment.
Y/N: :|
LN: You should stop by, though.
Y/N: Weâll see.
After a productive day, you spent the evening cleaning up your apartment, knowing Landoâs party would soon start across the hall. By 7 p.m., the music was already thumping. With a sigh, you changed into something a bit more casual yet presentable, then headed over.
When Lando opened the door, grinning at you in a black T-shirt and sweats, you couldnât help but smile.
"Hey," he greeted, pulling you inside. After a quick introduction to his friends, he whisked you to the kitchen. "Want something to drink?"
"Sure," you replied, eyeing the crowd. Youâd guess around 20 people were mingling, laughing, and enjoying the music. Lando handed you a drink, and after one sip, you grimaced.
"This is terrible," you laughed, and he chuckled.
"It grows on you. Trust me."
Just then, a voice called his name, and he slipped away, leaving you to nurse the mystery drink. A familiar voice behind you made you spin around.
âY/N? Is that you?â It was Maggie, an old friend from college.
You squealed, pulling her into a hug. "What are you doing here?"
âI could ask the same thing!â she said, surprised. "Iâm here on vacation."
Laughing, you replied, "I live in Monaco now, right across the hall from Lando. How do you know him?"
âWe have mutual friends,â she explained as you moved to the balcony, catching up.
A couple of hours (and a few more of Landoâs terrible concoctions) later, you were feeling it. While chatting with one of his friends in the living room, two arms wrapped around your waist, and you felt Landoâs warmth at your back.
"Hi," he murmured, his breath tickling your ear.
You giggled, glancing up at him. "Hi."
"Having fun?" he asked, a playful look in his eyes.
"Tons, but I am very drunk," you admitted, laughing.
He chuckled, turning you to face him, his eyes softening. âYouâre so pretty,â he slurred, making you blush.
"So are you," you shot back, and he shook his head.
"No, Iâm handsome, not pretty," he argued, pouting as you tilted your head in mock thought.
"Nope, I think you're pretty," you teased, earning an exaggerated eye roll. Just then, someone called for him, and he grabbed your hand, pulling you back to the living room. But instead of letting you go, he settled you right in his lap on the couch.
âMuch better,â he said with a smirk, his arms snug around you. You settled in, joining the conversation and enjoying his friendsâ company. Someone brought over a round of shots, and things became a bit of a blur after that.
--------------------------------------------------
The next morning, you woke with a pounding headache and a desperate need for water. Blinking, you realized you were in Landoâs room, the man himself snoring softly beside you. Glancing down, you blushedâsomehow, youâd ended up in just your tank top and underwear.
Leaning over him to grab a water bottle from the nightstand, you accidentally woke him.
"What time is it?" he asked groggily.
"10," you replied, wincing at the brightness of your phone.
Sitting up, he smiled at you sleepily before his eyes widened.
âWhatâs wrong?â you asked, confused.
âUmm⌠how much do you remember from last night?â
You tried to think back. "Last thing I remember is tequila shots. Did we⌠hook up?â
âNo,â he replied, blushing. âClose, but⌠no.â
âThen whatâs the big deal?â you asked, watching as he flicked his eyes down from your eyes. Moving over to the mirror, you gasped.
âAre you fucking serious, Lando?â you said, glaring at him with a mix of amusement and annoyance.
He smirked. âYou asked for it.â
Looking closer, you saw multiple hickeys around your collarbone, deep purple marks trailing down toward your chest.
"Hope you're happy," you said, shooting him a glare in the mirror.
âQuite,â he replied cheekily, âbut you blue-balled me, so weâre even.â
âI did?â you asked, eyebrows raised.
He laughed. "Yeah, we made out on the couch for a while, and when I brought you in here, you were asleep by the time I turned around."
"Oops," you replied with a smirk. "Iâm starving.â
âLetâs get some food, then,â he said, tossing you one of his hoodies. "I think Max is still passed out on the couch. He can join us."
You threw on the hoodie and your leggings, and sure enough, Max was slumped on the couch in the living room. Lando woke him, and the three of you headed out.
Luckily, youâd thought to grab a hat and sunglasses, feeling the effects of the night before. Landoâs hand rested on your thigh as he drove, and you rolled your eyes at Maxâs cheeky grin. The restaurant was only a few minutes away, and you could barely wait to dig into the menu.
Suddenly, a girl approached your table. Lando looked up, assuming she was a fan, but her gaze was on you, her face alight with excitement.
âIâm a huge fan of your books!â she exclaimed, trying to contain her excitement. You smirked as Landoâs face fell, while Max burst into laughter.
âThank you so much!â you said, grinning. âWhich oneâs your favorite?â
âThe first in the trilogy,â she replied. âI love Axel. Actually, I have it with meâwould you mind signing it?â
âOf course!â you said, signing her book. âI really appreciate the support.â
After the fan left, Lando still looked stunned, and you couldnât help but tease him.
"Looks like Iâm not the only one with fans," you said, nudging him playfully.
He shook his head, chuckling. âYeah, yeah⌠maybe I need to read this trilogy of yours.â
Max leaned in with a grin. âOh, you should. Axelâs way cooler than you.â
You rolled your eyes, but when you glanced over, you noticed Landoâs gaze lingering on you. His smile softened as he reached for your hand under the table, lacing his fingers with yours. Surprised, you met his eyes, which were warmer than youâd ever seen.
âIâm glad you came over last night,â he said quietly, almost like a confession.
Blushing, you squeezed his hand. âMe too.â
The rest of the breakfast was filled with laughter and playful banter, but every so often, youâd catch each otherâs eye and share a small, secret smile. When it was time to leave, Lando slipped his arm around your shoulder, pulling you close as you walked back to the car.
As he drove you home, he kept glancing over, as if he couldnât help but steal little glimpses of you. Finally, he broke the silence, his voice soft.
âDo you think we could go out some time? Maybe for dinner?â
Heart fluttering, you smiled and looked at him. âIâd like that.â
Lando grinned, reaching over to squeeze your hand.

Hey, I recently wandered across your page and I had to indulge.
I was wondering if you could do a sukuna x Dom!(Obviously) Reader - where sukuna's been a bitch all day just to be alone with reader and gets his guts rearranged? It's okay if not, have a good day :pp <3
I narrowed my eyes watching Sukuna walk past all confidently like nothing was wrong to our bedroom. "I'm so sorry Gojo for his behaviour he must be getting close to his heat. "I apologized smiling lightly though this was expected behavior from him. But ever since we mated he had been less and less bitchy.
"It's all good I was naive to believe his good attitude would last for long, and don't worry I'll give you guys some time off I expect you guys will be busy for a while." He laughed and I smiled I saw Gojo and Geto at the door and immediately made my way upstairs.
"What was all that attitude about downstairs." I glared at him but he didn't falter.
"I don't know what you mean." He shrugged looking away and I moved closer to where he sat on the bed smelling his scent spike.
"You don't ? what a shame I was just going to let you apologize and we can have some fun by guess not." I teased him watching his face fall. "I guess I'll have to call up Nanami."
" That's not fair ! You've been gone for two weeks and then as soon as you come back you invite stupid Gojo over." And that's when it clicked for me my omega had missed me a lot. I grinned and pulled him so he was sitting on my lap.
"I'm sorry 'Kuna I should have known not to invite Gojo and Geto over this close to your heat. "I apologize kissing him on the lips before moving down to his neck. I lifted his shirt up gripping his waist as he moaned on top of me I pulled away to let us undress.
I threw him on the bed and watch his eyes glaze over as I forced him into heat with my pheromones intertwining ours together. I moved my fingers down to his cunt and began to finger him his slick already coating my fingers as he panted.
I pulled them out and stared at him smiling wolfishly as I licked my fingers clean making him shudder. " Ugh [name] that's so gross."
"Gross? Anything that comes from you tastes amazing." I said. " Come on sit on my face." I offered but he shook his head vigorously.
"I'm too heavy though." He said looking nervous at my suggestion.
"Baby I could literally throw you around your the perfect size." I reassured him and he climbed on top he hovered for a bit over my mouth holding himself up nervous. Before I pulled him down to meet my tongue making him let out a squeal.
I began eating him out like I was starving - messily . Leaving now where untouched as he basically rode me. As he came on my tongue I licked him clean. He laid limp and I pulled him off me.
I pulled out my dick as he was already grabbing me ready for another orgasm. I teased him rubbing my head in his cunt. Before pushing it all in at once making him squeeze against me. "Fuck you feel so good around me." I groaned thrusting in and out getting accustomed to the tightness. No matter how much I fucked him he was he always so tight.
I kept fucking him fast hitting his prostate forcing moans out of him.
"You're squeezing me so tight baby. I can feel your walls rippling around me. You gonna cum on my cock again." I smirked down at him he couldn't even focus due to the pleasure.
"Y-yes please let me cum." He cried out as I slithered a hand to his throat choking him lightly.
"But I haven't heard cum yet." I said and he got the hint that I wasnt letting him cum till I did.
"A-alpha I can't I need to cum." He begged.
"Hm I would have thought I trained you better than that? Has your heat gotten to your head to think you 'need' anything that I'm not giving you." I said cruelly still drilling into him. He whimpered at my words.
"You feel that that's how deep I am." I said moving his hand to touch my bulge in him. I threw my head back as I felt myself get close to orgasming I began slowing down the pace. Slowly fucking him as I came in him pulling out before I could knot him.
"Alpha.. knot?" He whined begging me and I had to physically hold back. We had three more days to go I couldn't be tired by the first.
"We've got alot of time ahead of us don't worry." I smirked pulling Sukuna into another kiss .

Hey can you do one where the reader has a crush on Matt.She is very much giving heart eyes and tries to do anything to make him happy.Matt being oblivious complains to his brother about it.Nick and Chris smack some sense into him saying how lucky he is to have someone like us care about him.Matt disagrees and the reader hears this causing her to stop not wanting to make him uncomfortable.Matt misses the way things use to be and gets jealous when learning the reader is going out on a date.At the end they have an argument and he tells her how he really feels.Lots of angst in the beginning fluff towards the end please!!
OVERBEARING - m. sturniolo
warnings: slight cursing, angst at start, fluff at the end
-
you couldnât deny it anymore. and you dont think it went unnoticed either.
the lingering gazes, to the more than normal laughter at his jokes, or the constant acts of service. how you were willing to do anything for him. just him.
matthew sturniolo.
you thought your constant need to be near him was just you wanting to be better friends. that was until your feelings started growing stronger.
ây/n, helloo.â
you brought your attention to the voice you found yourself loving so much.
âsorry, what?â
âi asked if you could pass the remote.â matt repeated while settling down beside you on the couch. you nodded and reached over to grab the remote to hand it to him. it was around 1 AM, and it was just the two of you. nick and chris had went to their rooms while you and matt decided to watch a movie.
âwant me to get you a blanket?â you whispered as matt stared at the screen to the opening of the movie.
âno, im good.â matt says. you nodded and turned your head towards the movie. about five minutes or so passed when you asked another question.
âhungry?â
ânope.â matt responds, adding a âpopâ to the p to exaggerate his response. you mumbled an âokayâ. a few beats of silence passed before once again, you asked.
âare you sure-â
ây/n, please mâ just trying to watch the movie in peace.â matt sighed. he was getting frustrated by the second. after a long day of filming with his relatively loud brothers, the only sounds he wanted to hear were the actors on the tv.
but this was only one example of your persistence. you were always clung to mattâs side. following him like a lost puppy at all times.
always there to cook him up a meal after his long day, willing to do any of his chores that he just didnât feel like doing, even soothing him to sleep on those tough nights where everything went blank.
nick would sometimes make fun of matt. it almost seemed like you were his mother with the way you acted. but thats not what you were trying to come off as. you simply just had a lot of love for the boy that you werenât really ready to confess yet.
but for matt? he didnât see your clinginess as a good thing, in fact he began to hate it once nick pointed it out.
on one particular day matt decided to bring it up to his brothers while they were in nickâs room.
âi just donât get it, like sheâs just always there.â matt says while pacing around the room.
âis that a bad thing?â nick asks while organizing the clothes in his closet.
âi mean it wouldnât be if she didnât act like im some sort of child.â matt sighed while plopping down at the edge of the bed.
âi dunno, iâd love to have someone like y/n. she literally does everything for you bro.â chris laughs while slightly nudging matt.
âyeah..â nick yells from his closet. âdonât know why youâre bitchinâ bout it sheâs literally helps you with likeâŚâ nick took a pause to think. âeverything!â
matt scoffs before shaking his head. âyeah well itâs nice before it gets fucking unbearable.â
unbeknownst to matt, you could hear this whole conversation. you had came to drop off some food for the triplets, and since you had an extra key you went straight in. now you wouldâve made yourself known until you realized you were the topic of their conversation.
to say you were hurt from matts words was an understatement. you quickly rushed out of the house, tears streaming down your face recounting every scenario where you were overbearing.
-
hours turned into days and days turned into weeks. matt hadnât heard from you in a while. he expected to wake up to your daily morning texts, but nothing. after he shrugged that off he expected you to come over like you usually did. but once again, you didnât.
he found himself longing for your presence more than he ever did.
you both went no contact until you came over, seeking nicks assistance since you had a date that night in hopes that your little crush on matt would subside.
you had went the whole time without speaking to the brunette. opting for a simple âheyâ. matt was confused. why were you suddenly so distant? sure he wanted space at times but this is not what he had in mind.
matt finally snapped when you attempted rushing out their house, bidding matt goodbye with a meek âsee yaâ.
matt rose from his spot on the catch before making his way towards you. âare you gonna tell me whatâs going on, or are you gonna keep avoiding me?â matt said while crossing his arms on his chest.
you could only roll your eyes before slipping your shoes on. âi dont know what youâre talking about, but i have to go.â you spat harshly before spinning on your heel.
âwoah, whatâs up with you?â matt yelled, shocked at your sudden anger towards him. he pulled you back by your wrist so you could face him.
âyâknow if you found me âoverbearingâ you couldâve just told me.â
thats when everything came back to matt. instant regret washed over him as he gazed upon your solemn expression. the same eyes that used to hold so much adoration for him now hollow.
âiâm so sorry y/n. i know theres no excuse to what i said but i was just being stupid.â matt sighed while running a hand down his face. âyouâre far from overbearing, in fact i...i really miss you.â
âreally?â you mumbled while your facial expression softened. matt nodded before embracing you in a tight hug to which you reciprocated by wrapping your arms around his waist. your date long forgotten.
âyouâre amazing the way you are, and im sorry if i made it seem any other way.â
you smiled at matts words before leaning up to look at him. âjust tell me next time, okay?â matt smiled and lightly pecked the side of your temple. happy to have finally gotten you back.
the version of you he loved.
and the version of you he would always cherish.

A/N: sorry this shouldâve came out yesterday but i had to study for an exam. i have also been experiencing writers block but i have a new matt series in mind so stay on the look out for that!
