my brother can make me laugh without moving at all. he can make me laugh on command, just by existing, and there is no physical tell or indication that it is about to happen. itâs like he can will me to laugh and i will. of course weâre not telepathic, but we do speak in unison sometimes. we improvise like no oneâs business. we could fool anyone into believing we are psychically linked. when i try to explain it, i sound silly saying it out loud, but i really CAN tell what heâs thinking. we exchange so much information just with a look. he can make me cry laughing and he doesnât even have to move
#i miss him so much i need him back i need him to live next to me again. i need to mooch off his wifi from my porch and invite him over#i miss him so much.#heâs only 2 minutes younger but he feels years younger. and yet i think weâre two halves of one soul#iâve always babied him not even in a mean or diminishing way but i felt this need to protect him#because he tends to be so naive and so shy#but. i am so proud of him. i need to show him off to everyone and i need everyone to understand how funny and charming he is#it feels like i grew up and left him where he will remain 11 forever. i miss him more than moving back home can fix#i miss him in ways that have nothing to do with the distance between our locations#but. it would certainly help to be able to see him every day#i keep smelling the carpet in his room and itâs so vivid. i remember the countless hours we spent developing huge wood block cities#and we would drive hot wheels over the wooden raceways we had made. we were actually quite coordinated and autistic about it#we were always building things together#just recently me and him talked on the phone about an old mlp au we came up with. all original characters and shit#it was super extensive and very clever#i STILL think it would make a really cool book series or something#i remember watching him play army men RTS gamecube on the wii. i STILL listen to the soundtrack to that game likeâŚ. daily#i remember walking into my room once where he was watching a show. and he was crying#and he NEVER cries over tv#but he was crying because his favorite character had resigned from the organization that the series was based around#and he was so distraught that she was leaving.#i remember when all 3 of us slept in one room. i remember when me and him were in bunk beds across the room#and we would sneak out of bed right as the parents left and stayed up playing by the light of the nightlight#the way we raced back into bed when the parents were approaching đ#my mom always says sheâs sad that i seem to remember so little of my life. like every story of my youth is news to me lmao#but i feel like i remember the most important parts? i think so#i remember how mom woke me up in the night to ask me to roll over because my bro could see my face from where he was sleeping#and he was scared because there was a weird shadow cast on my face that made it look like a skull which was making it hard for him to sleep#it was. so funny. i begrudgingly rolled over#i donât know. itâs just that there isnât a single instance i bring up that my brother does not also remember.#no matter how tiny or specific. we shared everything growing up

You Again*
Summary:Â The one where Harry is your sister's ex-boyfriend and you finally get to see him again after 5 years.
Word Count: 11.4k
Content Warning:Â 18+, smut, age gap (6 years), sir kink, choking, use of a toy, exhibitionism if you squint!
"You've gotta be fucking kidding me."
Your eyes widen as you look up toward the man making his way into the diner. You'd recognize him anywhere. The dark curly hair. The tattoos that bleed through the fabric of his light shirt. The rings on his fingers.
Just like that, years' worth of memories come flooding back to you all at once.
"Harry," you shriek, sliding off the stool before practically flinging yourself into his arms.Â
He smells exactly the same. Like teakwood and spearmint. A rather odd mix, yet subtle enough to remind you of home.
Of him.
His chest vibrates with a deep laugh as his arms wrap around your frame to keep you against him, prolonging the hug a minute or two longer than socially acceptable.Â
And when you finally lean back to see him, your cheeks begin to warm.
It's been...four years? Five? Since you last saw him? Just days before he and your sister broke up, effectively removing him from your life for good.
It had been a hard time. You wanted to be there for your sister. To comfort her through the grief of losing such a long and meaningful relationship.Â
But you wanted to be there for him, too. After all, he was one of your best friends, age difference or not. He had always been the comforting, influential figure in your life that you relied on. That you counted on to get through different hardships in your life.
He had picked you up after your first day at your new job. Had held you in his arms as you cried over your first break-up. He had even listened to you talk about the boy you had fallen in love with.
Losing him felt like losing a part of yourself.
And now, five years later...that part of you has come home.
"Hi, Dot," he beams, reaching out to take hold of your chin and squeeze. "Shit, look at you. When did this happen?"
His eyes rake over your figure and you feel your skin grown hot under his appreciative gaze. "Stop, it hasn't been that long."
"The last time I saw you, I was helping you move into your new apartment across town,â he recalls, arms crossing in thought. "And now...now what? Youâre still at your job, I assume?"
"I am. I just got a promotion, actually. Iâm an assistant editor now.â
His eyes seem to light up, that soft green sending chills up the back of your neck as you glance down at your feet. "Dot...that's amazing. I'm so proud of you."
You wave the compliment away. "Thanks."
"Really," he insists before following you back to the counter where you'd previously been sitting. "I know how badly you wanted to pursue a career in publishing, and this...this is really amazing. Do you like it?"
"I do," you tell him as you settle back onto your stool. "Yeah, it's really nice. The people are great, the work is fun. Plus, the promotion came with a raise."
"That's amazing," he sighs, head shaking like he can't believe it. "Really, that's so...I honestly can't believe it. I can't believe itâs been so long. Youâre soâŚadult now.â
You snort to yourself as you twirl your straw around your milkshake. "Yeah, I know. Though Iâm not sure if I should take that as a compliment or not.â
"You should." He smiles, and it's big and beautiful. "Youâve always been grown up. Even before, you were mature for your age.â
âWellâŚyeah. I was twenty-three. That does make me an adult.â
âAnd now youâre twenty-eight.â He shakes his head again. âI canât fucking believe it.â
You glance down at the rim of your glass. Heâs right, it almost doesnât seem possible. It feels like only last week that you were following him and your sister around town, begging to be included. Traipsing after them to bars, the mini golf course, and to any and all dates. Even though you knew your sister couldnât stand it.
But Harry was nice and always inclusive. After all, he was your friend before he was your sisterâs boyfriend. And he was determined to make sure that didnât change, no matter how many times Atta rolled her eyes.
"I don't know how you put up with me," you finally admit. "God, I was so annoying. Atta used to get so mad at me for never leaving you alone."
He shrugs one shoulder up. "You weren't annoying to me. I liked it. I mean, I liked that you still felt so...safe? Around me? I guess?"
"Yeah, I did.â You smile. âHonestly, I think you were my best friend.â
He laughs as he looks back over. "I better have been.â
âYeah?â
âYeah. Cause you were mine.â
"Good."
He smirks. "Remember how you used to fall asleep on my shoulder every time we watched a movie?â
"That's right," you groan, burying your face into the palm of your hand. "See? Annoying."
"Not annoying. Cute."
"It was not cute, it was annoying. And you know she hated it.â
âI donât care. She fell asleep on my shoulder, too. It was nice.â
You snort. âIt was weird, letâs face it. But I swear I've outgrown such habits."
He seems to hesitate for only a moment, eyes flicking between yours. "Too bad."
A beat.
You feel your stomach flip as you look away, breaking you both free of the tension. "So...what, um...what brings you to town? I was a little surprised to hear from you."
He takes the cup of coffee the waitress had poured him and slides it closer. "Oh, yeah, I'm...I'm here on business. And I remembered you lived here, so...I thought Iâd reach out.â
"I see."
"Yeah.â He hesitates again. "And...I missed you."
You canât fight the flutter in your chest. "I missed you, too, Har."
The conversation lulls as the busy diner continues to bustle around you. And despite how glad you are to see him, something feels...off. Different.
You aren't sure what. Can't quite put your finger on it. It almost feels like it used to, but something has changed. He looks like your Harry. He sounds like your Harry. He feels like your Harry. And yet, he feels like a stranger.
Maybe it's because it's been so long since you've seen him. Maybe it's because you aren't twenty-three anymore. Or maybe itâs because now heâs no longer Harry, your sisterâs boyfriend.
Now heâs justâŚHarry. Your old friend.
When you notice the way heâs staring, your eyes narrow. âWhat?â
"Nothing." He shrugs again before chuckling under his breath. "No, nothing. Sorry, I just...I don't know. It's just...so strange to see you again. Like this."
"Like...this?"
"Yeah. Just us. Alone. No Atta.â
âAh.â You swallow. âRight.â
âItâs notâŚweird, is it? I mean, it is weird but itâs notâŚuncomfortable, right?â
âNo,â you rush to assure him. âNo, I wanted to meet you. What happened with you two has nothing to do with me.â
He glances down at his lap. âRight.â
Thereâs an edge to the memory that wasnât there before, yet despite your curiosity, you bite your tongue.
âWhat about you?â you say instead. âWhat have you been up to in the last five years?â
He smirks. âOh, not much.â
âUh-huh. You think Iâve grown up, youâre basically an old man now.â
âYeah, yeah, all right. Iâm only 34.â
âThatâs still six years older than me, which makes you old.â
âThanks.â
âIâm serious. You're not that idiot on a motorcycle anymore. Now you say things like, 'I'm in town on business,â and you wear expensive suits, and ridiculous watches."
He glances down at the aforementioned object on his wrist. "In my defense, this was a gift.â
âSure.âÂ
âIt was,â he insists. His eyes flick over your face. âLook, I would have reached out sooner, butâŚafter we broke up, I figured you wouldnât want me to. I mean, you had just started your new job, and I knew it wouldnât be fair to ask you to be a side, soâŚâ
âThere were no sides,â you argue softly. âYou both justâŚgrew apart. You wanted different things.â
âYeah,â he agrees with a sigh. âBut I know it hurt her. It hurt me, too. And it was weird having to say goodbye to all of you. And leave all those memories behind. You were both such a huge part of my life."
"Yeah," you whisper. "You were a huge part of mine, too."
"Does Atta know you're meeting me?"
"No. Didn't really think it was any of her business. This is about us, not her."
His brow raises. "Would she be mad if she did?"
"I don't know,â you admit. âProbably not, but...would it really matter?"
"Of course it would. I'd never want to get in the way of your relationship."
"You aren't," you insist. "Look, she's dating somebody anyway. And I'm sure you are, too. You've both moved on. We're just...old friends catching up, and she'd have to understand that."
He seems to consider this before saying, "Yeah. I'm not, though."
"You're not...what?"
"Seeing anybody," he clarifies, tongue coming out to swipe across his bottom lip. "Haven't really dated anybody since she and I broke up."
"Oh, Harry," you murmur. "I'm...I'm sorryâ"
"No. No, don't be," he insists. "It wasn't...I've just been busy. Working at the firm and renovating my house. I've gone on some dates but nothing serious. I just...haven't met the right person, I guess."
"The right person, huh?" you muse teasingly as you take a sip of your drink. "Okay, and what does Harry Styles' right person look like?"
He exhales an amused chuckle. "God, I don't know. I don't really think I'm that picky. Just...anybody I can get along with, I suppose."
"That's it? No, 'They need a fat ass and the ability to make me a sandwich?'"
He grins so big, the corners of his eyes crinkle. "For fuck's sake. No, nothing like that. Look, I don't know. Call me old fashioned, but...I think sometimes you meet somebody, and you can just...tell. You know? There's this energy, this shift. You look at them...and it all just makes sense.â
And as he looks you, waiting for you to consider thisâŚthe air shifts.
"Yeah," you agree quietly, allowing your attention to fall down his features and land on his lips. "Yeah, that's...you're right."
He seems to notice the way your focus has wandered because he quickly clears his throat and looks back down at his mug. "What, um...what about you? I'm assuming you're seeing somebody."
You look away as well, willing yourself to calm. "Oh? And why do you assume that?"
"Come on," he nearly snorts, eyebrow cocking. "Look at you. You're beautiful and you're smart and you have this effortless ability to make anyone around you feel good. Who wouldn't want to date you?"
"Well...pretty much every male in the city," you retort. "I don't know. I've tried dating but...there's always something missing. It never really feels quite right."
"Yeah. I know what you mean," he hums. "There's this...disconnect. Like you're forcing something that you know isn't right."
"Exactly! It's not that I don't want to find somebody, I just...haven't. It's not as easy as it is with you."
His head tilts. "With me?"
"Yeah, you know," you sigh, hands waving about the air as you try to explain your point. "I haven't seen you in five years but we still, just...picked right back up, you know? As if no time had passed. We're still just us. We can talk, and we can laugh, and we don't have to force anything."
He nods. "Right."
"I mean, honestly? Sometimes I think it would be easier to date somebody I already know. The problem is that all the guys I know are assholes. And too immature, I guess. They've got no sense of purpose, no drive. And itâs not like I need to be taken care of, butâŚitâd be nice to know they could. You know?â
"Yeah. You need someone with a good head on their shoulders."
"Exactly. I need someone who feels more like an equal than this thing I need to take care. I want to date a man, not a Tamagotchi."
He laughs again and the sound brings the butterflies back to your stomach. You feel proud to have amused him. And even more proud of the way he casually places a hand on your arm as he takes a deep breath.Â
When he lets go, you look down at the spot on your skin as if you can still see outline of his fingers.Â
"You'll find somebody," he tells you, and you do your best to ignore the sparks dancing up the back of your neck. "You will. And they'll be perfect for you. Old enough to know better and wise enough to do it right."
You place your palm over the spot he once touched, squeezing it gently. "Yeah. Hey, and you, too. Anybody would be lucky to have you."
His eyes linger on yours. "Yeah?"
You smile. "Yeah."
The next few minutes are devoted to sharing stories about your families. He asks how your parents are, you ask about his. He tells you about his job and you tell him about your roommate. You recall every detail of the past five years, and once you've finally caught up to today, he pays for your drinks, and offers to walk you home.
You make your way along the busy streets of the city as Harry tells you that he's thinking about getting a cat. You laugh and tell him that he'd make a wonderful cat dad, and he seems to flush.
You wonder why.
Fifteen minutes later, you're walking up the steps to your building, already apologizing for the messy state of your apartment before he's even stepped foot inside.
He snorts the implication away, assuring you that no matter what, it can't be worse than how Atta used to keep her place.
And the mention of your sister breeds an odd feeling in your chest. Unease, and this strange tinge of jealousy. Like you're almost peeved at him for bringing her up. For reminding you that he's seen the inside of her room before.
But you shake it away as you push the door open, refusing to linger on the thought.
"Well...this is it," you declare, stepping aside to let him enter. "Probably looks smaller than you remember, butâŚit does the trick.â
He takes a moment to glance over your knickknacks and decor before he grins. âI love it.âÂ
"Really?"
"Yeah." He shoves his hands into his expensive coat pockets and nods. "Yeah, really. It feels...fitting."
"What do you mean?"
"I donât know. It just feels like you.â
Your teeth gnaw on the inside of your cheek as you walk to the kitchen. "Well...thanks. I think."
You offer him a glass of water, to which he declines, before you join him back by the door. You're not sure that youâre quite ready to say goodbye, but you know he can't stay forever.
You wonder if you actually want him to.
You wonder if it would be so bad if you did.
"This wasâŚreally nice," he says as he takes a half-step through the doorframe. "Really, Dot. I'm proud of you. And everything youâve done. And I'm really glad that I can still call you my friend after everything."
Your heart starts to pound a little harder inside your chest. "Yeah, me too. I really missed you, Har. I hope we can catch up again soon."
The side of his mouth curls up as his eyes soften. "I'd like that."
With that, he moves into the hall, and you close the door behind him.
The feeling that follows is...strange. Overwhelming. Like something is wrong. Like something has just been ripped away from you.Â
Like something is missing.
You feel on edge. Off-balance. Confused and unsure and you have no idea why. Thereâs a pain in your stomach that wasnât there before and a hollowness in your heart that didnât exist before you saw him.
Suddenly, there's a sharp knock on your door. "Dot?"
He's back.
Confused and slightly excited, you swing it back open to find him braced against your frame. Heâs quiet as he studies you, brows woven together in what appears to be deep thought before he strides back inside your apartment and begins to pace your floor.
"Okay," he begins. Strained. "Okay, tell me...tell me this isn't just me. Tell me this isn't just in my head."
You shut the door. "What do you mean?â
He looks at you before frantically gesturing between your two bodies. "This. This thing weâve been doing all afternoon. Tell me it's not just me. Tell me you feel it.â
And you're almost certain you know what he means, but the implication of it scares the shit out of you.
So, you simply tilt your head. "Har...feel what? I don't know what you're talking aboutâ"
"Us.â He stares at you. âUs, there's something...there's something different here. Something that wasn't here before."
"Like...?"
"Like...like the way you look at me," he says, eyes on yours as you feel your heart begin to race. "You never used to look at me that way."
Your lashes flutter, and suddenly, you feel acutely aware of the way you've begun to gawk at him. Have you been looking at him differently?
"And the way you speak to me," he continues. "Talking about needing someone to take care of you. Someone older. Someone...more mature."
You swallow.
He takes a step closer. "And all day, you've just...youâve found a way to brush your hand against mine. Or your arm. And you laugh at everything I say, even when it isn't funny. And I know you. I know this can't be what I think it is, but...you gotta tell me I'm not going crazy. You have to tell me it's not just...me."
And you realize now that you have an easy way out. You could brush off the accusation and tell him that it is just in his head. That he's your sister's ex-boyfriend, and he's your friend, and that you would never make a pass at him.
But then you say, "âŚwhat if it wasn't just you?"
He goes still, lips parting as he leans back. Almost as if struggling to understand what you've just said.
Truth be told, you're struggling to understand it yourself. You hadn't realized just how differently you'd been acting toward him. Or that youâd begun to wonder what would happen if he was your Harry instead of hers.
Because heâs not hers anymore. Heâs just a man. A very attractive man. With a job, and a house, and enough emotional maturity not to make a fart joke every three minutes.
And it's not your fault that you're starting to see him in a different light. It's been years. Five whole years since you've spoken to him and you're both adults now. Completely different people, and would it really be the worst thing if you wondered what could have been?
"DotâŚ" he begins slowly, clearly wrestling with what he wants to say, "âŚyou don'tâŚI don't think you really know what you're doing."
You take a step as well, challenging him. "What am I doing?"
"You're...you'reâ" His fingers find the bridge of his nose as he squeezes. Hard. "Fuck, Dot. Don'tâŚdon't do thisâ"
"Do what? Flirt with you?"
His palms fly to his ears with a wince. "Stop. No, you didn't...you didn't say that. You're not flirting with me. You're not flirting with meâ"
"What if I am?" you retort, following after him with a surge of confidence you didnât realize you had. "Why would that be so wrong?"
"Because,â he scoffs, shooting a stern look your way. "Youâre Attaâs little sister. And weâre friends. And youâre basically a childâ"
"I'm not a child," you remind him. "I'm twenty-eight. I've been making capable decisions for quite some time nowâ"
"But not this," he hisses, the muscles in his neck straining. "NotâŚshit. You can't do this. You can'tââ
"Why not? You said it yourself, there's something different hereâ"
"But not thisâ"
"Why not?"
"BecauseâŚyou're you," he huffs. "You're...you're my best friend, and my exâs little sister, and IâmâŚIâm just this big, bad man come to ruin you.â
And somehow, the idea goes straight to your cunt.
"You're not ruining me, Harry," you say, even though you wish he would. "Weâre adults. Old friends catching up and realizing that maybe things can be different now."
He takes in a breath. "But they can't be. They can't be differentâ"
"Whyâ"
"Because it's not rightâ"
"What's not right? What?" you argue. "Is it just the age difference? Is it Atta? Is it that you aren't attracted to me, because I know you were flirting with me, tooâ"
His entire face twists into a grimace as he inhales sharply and presses his hands back over his ears. "God. Don't say thatâ"
"You were," you insist. "Like it or not, I'm not the little girl you used to know. All right, and there's...there's nothing wrong with us testing the watersâ"
He steels himself, arms dropping back to his sides. "We can't."
"Why?" you repeat for what feels like the hundredth time. "Why can't we? Huh? We're not breaking any rules. We're not doing anything illegal. I don't see what's so wrong with just tryingâ"
"I'd ruin you," he says again, with so much conviction that it makes your stomach drop. "I would ruin any chance you had at a normal relationshipâa normal life. All right, being with me...it would complicate everything. And I'd never do that to youâ"
"I'm not asking you to marry me. I'm just asking you to tryâ"
"Try what?"
"Try seeing." You take another step, making sure you have his full attention. "JustâŚtry seeing if what we think is here is actually here. If maybe we were meant to find each other again after all this time. If this is where it all finally makes sense."
He considers this for a moment. Considers you. And you aren't sure when you suddenly became so enamored by the thought of Harry, but youâre here now. And heâs here. And thereâs a shift.
And it feels right.
Then, his head begins to shake. "No. No, I know better. I have to know better. I have to do better than this. I can't...God, I can't believe I'm even...no. No, you mean too much to me for me to ruin this."
You feel your chest deflate as your lips press into a thin line. And you stare at him. You stare and you see the indecision and anguish on his face. You see the way he wrestles with the idea you've given him. The way he wrestles with himself.
The way he wrestles with you.
You don't want to push him. Because you know this is something you can never take back. And maybe there's just too much adrenaline in your veins right now. Maybe you aren't thinking straight, and once he leaves and the moment passes, youâll wonder what you were so worked up about anyway.
But right now, all you feel is disappointment.
"Fine," you whisper, and his eyes soften. "No, fine. You're right. You're right, this is...I never should have said anything. I wasâŚconfused. I was just happy to see you again and I thought it was something else, butâŚyou're right. It's nothing. And I don't wanna be your mid-life crisis. I just want us to be friends again.â
Your tiny apartment falls silent as you both settle onto this conclusion. As you let your heartbreak dangle in the air.
Then, his fingers between to flex and his teeth begin to grit, and watch in real time as he starts to change his mind.
Then, he murmurs, âOh, fuck it.â
Next thing you know, he's closing the gap between you, taking hold of your face and kissing you hard.
You donât have time to process it. Donât even care to process it. But you donât care. Because everything makes sense now.
So, you feel him. Surrender to him. Indulge in the dominate pull of his hands on your jaw as he takes a taste of you on his tongue. As he presses his hips so hard into yours that you feel your knees go weak.
You make a noise in your throat as he goes deeper, and he growls. Like he's fighting himself. Fighting the urge to take as he begins roughly walking you back until youâre slammed against the wall.
He knows exactly what he's doing in a way that younger men never have. He makes you feel both taken care of and somehow, still completely helpless. You don't have to think about anything with him because he does everything.Â
He presses his strong, tall frame into yours until he practically disappears into you. His large hand grips onto the back of your neck as you whimper, taking control of the momentâof youâuntil the only thought left in your head is just more.
And you don't doubt that he'd give you more if you asked, but before you can, he pulls back, and puts the moment on pause.
You feel breathless. Dejected. Wilting in his hold as he meets your eye and looks for your reaction.
But he wonât find it. And you bite back a whine as you wait for him to come back.
He sweeps his thumbs along your cheek before sighing to himself. "Dot..."
You feel your stomach turn at the nickname. At the way it comes out raspy and desperate. "Donât say it."
But he does, anyway. "We shouldn't do this."
"I know," you murmur, fingers disappearing into his hair while he seems to nestle into your touch. "I know, but I want to. I want to, Har. SoâŚplease donât make me lose you again.â
Another beat passes before he groans and presses his forehead to yours. âGod,â he nearly growls, and the sound makes your thighs squeeze together. âDotââ
"I won't tell," you promise while his jaw clenches. "I won't, I swear. I'll be your secret."
Just like that, the hand he placed on your thigh tightens. Squeezing until you're squirming beneath him. Heâs losing his conviction and youâre losing your patience.
"This is wrong," he mumbles. "S'wrong, Dot. I can't do this to you. Can't do this with you...I can't...I know better. I have to do better.â
You tug on his hair as you straighten up, whining beneath a strained breath. "I donât want you to do better. I want you to do me.â
He exhales deeply with this, nose running down the side of your face as his lips travel to your neck. He seems to take refuge there, subtly pressing kisses to your throat as he thinks. "I want to," he tells you softly. "You have no idea how badly I want to. How badly I want to do everything for you. Show you how a real man fucks. Until you see stars.â
"Har," you just about gasp, anxious to have him do just that. "Please...pleaseâ"
"Fuck." His thigh slots between the both of yours and you writhe against him, searching for anything you might find. "Be so easy to take you. Be so easy to show you what you're missing. To wreck you until youâre begging for moreâ"
"So do it," you plead, pulling on him until his mouth meets yours. "Do it, Har. Please. Just once. Just once, and I promise I'll be so good. Be so good for you. Won't ever ask you againâ"
His hold on you grows more determined before he's ripping you away from the wall and slinging you toward your bed a few feet away.
Heâs on you in seconds, hovering about where you lie as you greedily grab for him. "Promise me," he hisses as his palm slips beneath your shirt, and a needy whimper bleeds from your throat. "Promise me that this is what you want."
"I promise," you repeat quickly, arching into his touch. "Promiseâ"
"Promise me...that you'll be good," he says next, fingers brushing over the material of your bra. "That you'll behave. That you'll do exactly what I tell you."
"Yes," you breathe, eyes falling shut.
"Fucking promise me..." he continues as he scratches down your chest, "...that you won't tell. That you'll be my dirty little secret. That you'll be mine. That you'll let me ruin you and that you'll fucking thank me for doing itâ"
The last domino falls. Crashes to the ground as you tug him down to you so you can kiss him. So, you can prove your loyalty. Prove that this is everything youâve ever wanted.
You feel him smile.
"You little fucking minx,â he purrs.
Your skin warms as Harry's stunned but unceasingly enthralled gaze lingers on the red lace of your underwear. However, his fingers move instead for your hips. His hauntingly empty touch ghosting across the fabric of your underwear as you anxiously await contact.
But he doesn't give it to you. Not quite, not yet. He just wants to look at you. Wants to drink you in. Allow himself the privilege of seeing what he never has before.
"Did you wear these just for me, little one?" he asks in a gravely drawl, eyes flicking up to yours from where he lays between your thighs.Â
You swallow as you look across your stomach at him. You're not sure why you picked out this particular set today. Perhaps it was a subconscious choice or perhaps destiny was simply on your side.
"Maybe," you murmur, nails curling into your palm as you work in shallow breaths. God, you need him to touch you. Need him to do something about the mess that's sitting two inches in front of his face.
The very same mess he's pretending he doesn't notice.
Your response encourages a smirk as he hums and glances back down at the little white bow placed delicately in the center. "S'cute, Dot," he says softly, pinching the ribbon between his thumb and forefinger. "Fucking precious, actually. Knowing you got yourself all dolled up. Just to see me."
He pulls his lip between his teeth and glances back over your face. He's amused by the weary and desperate expression you wear and you're two seconds away from groaning.
His touch moves down. Down, down, down until the pad of his finger brushes over your clit.Â
You tense before releasing a shaky exhale.Â
Satisfied with this reaction, he moves even lower. Until he finds that growing wet patch that's beginning to hurt.
"What's this?" he coos, looking down toward the darkened red fabric. "Oh, darling...s'this for me, too?"
You're not sure where your quippy attitude from before has gone because now you can do nothing but nod mutely as you shift beneath his hand.
"Yeah?" His eyebrow raises as he grins at you. "Is this what has you so anxious?"
You give him another nod.
He hums. "Think I need to see for myself, hm?" He smirks and pats his palms against your hips. "Take these off for me."
You quickly reach down to hook your fingers around the hem of your underwear and drag them down your thighs. Once they've been pulled from your body, you get ready to toss them onto the other side of the bed. But before they can be flicked from the tips of your fingers, Harry snatches them with his fist.
"Uh-uh," he tuts as he tucks them into his suit's breast pocket. "These are mine now."
You suck in a sharp, eager pant. "Harâ"
"Shh." He settles back onto his stomach, hands curling around your thighs to guide them apart and allow him a better visual. "M'busy, little one."
But itâs nearly impossible to stay quiet as his warm breath fans across your pussy, making the mess that much more obvious to you both. In fact, you can practically see the glistening reflection in his eye as he studies your cunt in the most intimate of ways.
You're not sure what he wants. What he's doing or planning or thinking. And you don't know why, but the way he stares at you does more for the apprehensive coil in your gut than him actually touching you has.
Finally, he makes another satisfied noise deep within the back of his throat before he brings his fingers back to you.
Two are placed just above your clit before he teasingly drags them down. However, when your hips buck up, he merely shoves them back down with a tsk.
Once youâre still, he starts again. Easing himself through your folds as he spreads you with the utmost glee. Fascinated by the way your body feels, the way it reacts to him.
His tongue sits between his lips as he ventures down, and the moment he finds the pooling of arousal waiting for him...you see the muscles in his neck contract.
"DarlingâŚ" The nickname is whispered across your body as he scoots closer. "Bet this hurts, doesn't it?"
"Yes," you reply instantaneously, straining around the singular word as you resist the urge to whimper.Â
He circles the tip of his finger around your aching hole, almost as if to test you. "Oh, precious girl...how long, hm? How long have you been in so much pain?"
Truthfully, since you hugged him at the diner.
"All day," you say aloud, hands gripping onto the duvet beneath you. "All day, Har. Been thinking about you all day."
And that is the honest answer. You'd been anxiously awaiting your meeting from the moment you woke up.
But he smiles as if he knows better, despite the way he seems to bask in your response. "All day, hm? And what were you gonna do if I never came back? Were you just gonna sit here and rub your pretty thighs together?"
Your heart skips while your hands gather atop of your stomach.
His brow raises. "No? Well then how were you gonna take care of it, hm?"
For a moment, you think this is simply rhetorical, but the longer the silence stretches, the more obvious it becomes that he expects an answer.
You swallow the odd lump in your throat. "How do you think?"
"Uh-uh," he chastises again. "I wanna hear you say it. Want you to tell me exactly how you were gonna fix this little problem of yours had I not been here."
Your head flops back against the pillows as you glare at the ceiling. He's always been rather infuriating but now he's a menace.
"Dot..." He's warning you. Calling you back. Urging you not to be so bratty.
With a tentative sigh, you look back at him. "My...vibrator."
He perks up. "Yeah?"
You nod faintly.Â
"Tell me how," he instructs next, jutting his chin toward you. "Better yet...show me. Show me how you've been taking care of yourself all these years."
Feeling rather embarrassed under the spotlight of such an intimate request, you shyly look over toward your nightstand and outstretch a hand. After pulling the drawer open, you slip inside and find the purple wand that's just small enough to fit snugly inside your palm.
And Harry watches with a certain wonder in his eye as you bring the dainty toy closer. Yet, he says nothing while you slowly guide it toward your stomach and down to your thighs.
But he does, however, shift in order to make room, scooting back by a hair to allow you the space you need to place the head right above your aching clit.
For some reason, doing something so private in front of him feels...odd. Strange and almost unsettling. And perhaps that's just nerves, but you can't deny the heat that rushes to your face as he looks between you and the vibrator.
"S'this it, then?" he murmurs, a hint of teasing laced within the remark. "Don't even have to turn it on?"
Your thumb taps against the power button, a nervous tic, although you refrain from switching the toy on just yet. "No..."
His smirk is borderline haughty. "Then what do you do, little one? How do you use it?"
You say nothing. You hold his stare, and you hold a deep breath, and you hold the wand to your glistening cunt.
Then...you flip the switch.
The soft, dainty vibrations echo across the room, across your bodies, and across your clit as it's met with the instant stimulation of the pulsating wand.
You choke on a gasp as you return your eyes to the ceiling, allowing for the feeling to take control of each remaining sense.
And as you do, Harry's hands make themselves known to you as they begin to smooth up your legs, helping guide your thighs further apart once again.
There's an ever-so-slight stretch that follows as your muscles are pulled, and the distinctive burn makes your lashes flutter shut.
"There you go," he whispers. "So pretty, darling. God, could watch you do this all day."
Truthfully, you imagine youâre quite a sight. After all, youâve watched yourself before. You know how it looks. Know exactly the kind of visual fantasy Harry is witness to right now.
So, you play it up, give him a show. After all...he's got a front row seat.
You rotate the head slowly, circling down and around your hole before retreating and dragging the object back up and through.
And you shiver every time it brushes against that particular sweet spot. Every time the pulses slow just to speed up once more. It's almost torturous the way your body is being bent to such salacious desires. And cruel the way you're forced to do this while he only watches.
A whimper slips free, and you arch off the bed, pressing the toy as tight against your body as you can stand.
You hear Harry chuckle.Â
"Easy," he warns before you feel his fingers curl around your wrist, encouraging your grip to relax. "Take it slow, Dot. Not in a hurry, are you?"
"No," you breathe, head shaking zealously. "No, m'just...feels good."
"Does it?" He almost sounds surprised. "Hm. Interesting. Seeing as you're doing it wrong."
Your head lifts.
He glances toward the vibrator. "May I?"
You nod.
Pleased, he slips the toy free from between your fingers and clears his throat. Focused eyes landing on your body as he readies the bullet.Â
Then...he begins.
It meets your clitâan innocent, familiar touchâbefore it's instantly being dragged down. He's slow with it. Giving you enough time to feel each particular flutter and twitch.Â
Your soft gasps and grateful sighs carry him further, until the tiny head of the toy is swimming through your arousal. You fall still, attention locked on the man by your knees.Â
But heâs still focused. Soft, green eyebrows weaving together as his pretty cherry lips stretch into a smile.
Something changesâeverything changesâwhen he slips the head inside. Your entire body ripples from the vibrations as you stumble over his name and squirm across the mattress.
He only laughs before placing his arm overtop your stomach to keep you cemented to the bed. "None of that. Stay still for me."
"Har," you whisper, depleted of any strength. "Please..."
"What, little one? What do you want?"
"I need...please, I'm..."
"What? Does it feel good?"
"Yes. Yes...yes, feels so good. Please..."
"Please what? What do you want, sugar?"
More. Everything. Anything. "Fuck, I'mâdon't stop. Please don't stop."
"Oh, darling," he breathes. "I'd never dream of it."
He takes the toy out and moves it back to your clit, circling gently a few times before pressing down hard.Â
And you almost miss the full feeling it provided as it was eased into you, but before you can dwell for too long...Harry's extending his fingers and slipping them into your cunt.
Not one, but two of those beautiful digits push past your walls and begin to stretch you, ripping a gasp from your throat at the simultaneous stimulation.Â
"Attagirl," he murmurs from below, and you can hear the smug undertone. "That's what you wanted, hm? Needed something to fill you."
Your chest heaves, the red lace of your bra lifting and falling as you roll your head back. "God, Harâ"
"Tell me, darling," he continues, easing himself out just to push back in. "Were you gonna use your own fingers? If I wasn't here? Gonna ride your pretty little hand?"
You can't tell if he already knows the answer or if he just wants to picture your hand between your thighs.
Either way, you pant out, "Mhm."
"Yeah? How many, honey? How many were you gonna use?"
"...two."
He tsks, seemingly disappointed with this answer. "Just two? Hm. And would it have felt like this, darling? Would they be able to do it for you the way mine can?"
To accompany this ask, he curls upward, nearly yanking the pleasure out of you as you choke on a cry and writhe away from him.Â
"Fuckâ" Your teeth tug on your bottom lip. "Shit, Harâ"
"Is that a no, then?" He thrusts his fingers out and back in again. "Would you have gotten yourself this wet...with just your own hand?"
The sound of him slipping through your arousal meets your ear as you groan and look down.
"No?" He adds a third finger while making sure to keep the wand of the vibrator exactly where it needs to be. "What about when you thought of me? Would that have done it for you, sugar? Thinking of me while you soaked your sheets? While you dripped down your knuckles as you fucked yourself?"
You've never heard a man talk to you this way. You already knew his experience superseded that of any man you'd been with before but this. None of those other boys ever knew how. But Harry...God. He knows just what to say. Knows exactly what you need to hear, and it overwhelms you.
"Har...Harâ"
"Need an answer," he reminds you, but when you refuse to offer him one, he takes himself away. His fingers, the toy, his body. Leaning away completely as your pussy goes completely quiet.
"Harry," you just about moan, pushing up onto your elbows to leverage the playing field. "You...I'm...I was justâ"
"Disobeying," he answers for you. "That's what you were doing. And I don't think that's fair, do you?"
You frown. You know this tone he's taking with you. Authoritative and condescending. It makes you huff. "Fine. I'll try again."
"Good girl," he murmurs, nodding at you as if to encourage confidence.
"I...wait, what was the question again?"
He smiles at this, releasing an amused chuckle beneath his breath before crawling back to you. His hands find the mattress beside your hips and he settles between your parted thighs, lips dangerously closer now.
And you can smell him. Smell his cologne, and his aftershave, and his shampoo. Can feel the heat radiating off his body, even through the expensive suit. Can see how much he wants to take care of youâruin you. As promised.
"Do you get yourself this wet...when I'm not around?" he repeats, and the tip of his nose brushes against yours.
Your breath hitches. "No."
The answer was always obvious, but you know he needed to hear you say it.Â
"Do you touch yourself...the way I touch you?"Â
"No."
"Can you make yourself come the way I can?"
"God, noâ" you gasp before taking hold of his face and smashing his mouth against yours.
His lips are perfect and his kiss is perfect and the two of you are perfect together. A connection so seamless, so effortless...it's as if you were always meant to be.
A ridiculous notion, you think to yourself, but right now...it's quite nice.
He pulls himself back just enough to meet your eye and offer a devious grin. "Then letâs find out, hm?"
Rough fingertips travel up the length of your inner thigh, forming goosebumps in the wake. You shiver, ready to receive his touch once again before he dances right past your cunt, and up your hip.Â
He moves for the lace on your chest, tugging on the wire between your breasts with a disappointed tsk.
"I want this gone," he decides, plucking it from your skin. "Need to see all of you, Dot."
And before you can even reach back to undo the hook, he's looping an arm underneath your back, lifting you up, and flicking the clasp free.Â
Once done, he yanks the bra down your arms and body before flinging it somewhere behind him.
Your eyes shut as your naked chest is revealed to him, heart hammering against your ribcage.
But then, you feel those lips again. He wraps his mouth around your left nipple before you can even whisper his name, sucking on you as though he's determined to make you see stars.
Which you do the moment his teeth pull on the sensitive skin. And you can't help but mewl as his tongue flicks cruel and merciless patterns against before moving for your collarbone.
He groans as he goes, situating his knee between your legs and pressing it directly against your cunt. His other hand gropes at your right breast, kneading at the tender flesh until his mouth reaches your neck. He nips at a vein just below your jaw and you arch up into him, chest knocking into his.
He sucks sweet bruises into the curve of your throat before licking apologies over the newly ruined skin. It's slow and painful and beautifully good.
Everything about him is beautiful and good.
His entire body seems to cater to yours as he cages you to the mattress and easily pulls whimpers from your throat. As he touches you, and pleases you, and knows you in a way nobody else ever has.Â
You grind yourself against his leg before glancing down. And thatâs when you notice the way your arousal has begun to soak through his nice pants. The way a dark little patch seeps into the fancyâand expensiveâmaterial. A sight both erotic and humiliating.
Your whimper forces his eyes to where yours reside, and he smirks when he sees your mess.
"What's the matter, little one?" he asks, taking his hand from your tit and using it to grab onto your jaw. "Are you embarrassed?"
You nod, despite his hold.
"Oh, my dirty little girl,â he hums. âI don't mind you soaking my trousers. But I'd rather you soak my cock."
You'd rather that, too, and you're more than grateful when he leans back to undo his belt. You don't know where this will lead you. If youâll fuck him and then lose contact for another five years.Â
Or if youâll fuck him and change everything.
But right now, you don't mind. You'll happily exist in this moment with him. In these bad decisions until you're coming so hard, you forget your own name.
He leans back to begin ridding himself of his clothes and you scramble upward to help him along. Your greedy hands grab at his jacket and his shirt, wrestling them down his arms and off his broad chest. Wanting to see him the way he can see you.
You nearly moan when his inked skin is revealed to you. You knew he'd gotten a few tattoos in college, and even some a bit after. But seeing them now, painted across such a tan, toned canvas makes your head spin.
"Easy," he laughs, reaching out to swipe his thumb beside your mouth to collect the pooling drool. "Save some for me, hm?"Â
But you can't. Instead, you take his finger between your lips and bury it beside your tongue.
Surprised, his lashes flutter. But once you realize he wonât be able to undo his pants without both hands, you regretfully pop his digit free. Allowing him to slip out of his briefs until his cock springs free.
HeâsâŚperfect. Still. Somehow. Red and swollen and leaking just for you. And you clench from the mere thought of having something so beautiful inside you.
You crawl closer, eager for a taste, but Harry simply grabs hold of your chin.
"Yes, little one?" he murmurs, using his other hand to hold his cock. "Did you want something?"
You nod and lean forward another inch.
"All right," he concedes, pumping himself before subtly tugging you down. "Just a taste, honey. Since you've been so good."
He leads your mouth to him and without a moment's hesitation, you outstretch your tongue, and drag it along the underside.
You revel in the way you feel him twitch. In the way he exhales a deep breath through parted lips while moving his fingers to your hair, guiding you closer but not too close. Just enough to get him on your tastebuds.
You hum when you reach the tip, eager to indulge in the pre-cum already beading in pearly drops. And the vibrations from your eager appreciation make the muscles in his stomach quiver as he curses your name.
However, you barely get the chance to wrap your mouth around him before he's yanking on your hair, and straightening you back up.
"What did I say?" he hisses. "Don't be greedy, Dot."
"I'm sorry," you whisper, swallowing the bit of him still lingering in your mouth. "M'sorry, won't do it again."
"No, you won't. Or I'll go back on my promise."
"No," you whine, needy fingers wrapping around his wrist to keep him close. "No, won't do it again. I promise."
You know heâs amused with your desperation, and even though you're slipping fast, he can't help but be entertained. "We'll see, little one."
With a fervent motion of your head, you scramble back to the pillows to lay down, legs spreading as if to invite him in.
He smirks as he strokes his cock a time or two more while settling himself between your thighs. You imagine he could have you in a number of ways, a plethora of positions. But he chooses this. He chooses to see your face this first time. To see every ounce of pleasure etched within your features.
And truth be told, you don't mind. You could stare at him forever.
"Do you have any condoms?" he asks next, dipping down to press his lips to yours for only a second. "Or would you prefer to go without?"
You consider this. You're on birth control and you do have a bit of a creampie kink, so you shake your head.Â
"Without," you answer quickly before lifting an eyebrow. "Unless you'd like to?"
"No," he chuckles, placing a kiss to your nose this time. "Just wanted to make sure. Promised to take care of you, and that's what I plan to do."
Your heart flutters.
"Okay, gonna need you to be good, honey," he tells you now, large palm landing on your hip to steady you. "Gonna need you to take me and do as I say, all right? And I'll make it worth it."
"I will," you agree quickly, fingers traveling up the dips in his arms, ghosting over each muscle until you reach his shoulders. "Be so good, Har, promise."
"Uh-uh." His hand smacks against your inner thigh in warning before his thick eyebrow cocks up. "S'not my name, darling. Not right now."
Curious as to what he might mean, you study him for only a moment before you realize.
"I'm sorry, Sir."
Just like that, something in his demeanor switches.Â
Truth be told, the name doesn't do much for you. But you revel in the way he feeds off it. Find absolute euphoria in the way he lights up at your obedience until you want nothing more than to please him again. To call him anything he wants as long as he keeps looking at you like that.
"Good girl," he growls beneath a deep breath before he's bringing his cock closer.
He starts by dragging it along your clit, making you jolt and buck before his hand splays across your stomach to force you back down.
"No," he says simply, eyes fixated on the torture he's currently implementing.Â
He does it again, letting your swollen, puffy clit jump from the slight brush of his tip while he drags it through your arousal and shifts forward.
"Breathe," he orders next, stealing a quick glance at your puckered lips and wide eyes. âAll right?â
âYes, Sir.â
He slides in slowly, pushing past your tight walls, coaxing the muscles to stretch to his size.
At first, it's nothing more than a soft, easy sensation. Relaxing, in a sense as it aids the ache and fills the void his fingers left behind.
Then...he goes deeper.Â
And this is what you'd been waiting for. The slight tension and subtle burn as your body is forced to accommodate him. You're thankful he goes slow. Not just because of the pain. But because you both want to watch.
You want to watch the way he pulls your body apart. Wanna watch him disappear into your tight hole that pulls him in. Wanna watch the way you flutter and clench and claim him the way heâs claiming you.
"Oh, that's my fucking girl," he groans to himself. "Fucking hell, Dot. Didnât think youâd be so tight."
"Yeah, wellâŚnever had someone like you before," you tease, gauging your body's reaction by slowly rolling your hips up.Â
"Yeah?" His hand lands on your throat, smoothing up the sides of your neck until he can squeeze a gasp from your lips. âNever, huh?â
You shake your head and with one quick thrust, he bottoms out, forcing a strangled cry as you arch into him.
âNever had someone stretch this pretty pussy the way it deserves, yeah?â He tsks again. âWhat a fucking shame.â
He rears back, and the pain and the pleasure that follow him out make your chest cave in.
However, heâs quickly driving himself back in before you can complain, pushing past the fluttering muscles once more as you keen and rake your nails down the blanket.
"Harry," you breathe, his name like a lifeline as you drown in his sin.Â
But it earns you another firm smack to your outer thigh as he grunts his disapproval into your neck. "No," he warns before nipping just below your jaw. "You know better."
But reallyâŚyou donât. "Sir...please," you amend.
"Hm. S'a good girl," he praises. "Knew you'd behave for me, yeah? My perfect little toyâ"
A rather debauched moan rips from between your gritted teeth as his hips ram into yours. You can feel him everywhere. In your stomach, in your head, in your heart. His legs against yours, his chest against yours, his entire body against yours until you're almost convinced he's gonna become one with your bloodstream.
Not that you'd mind.
His arm slips beneath you once more in order to lift you up and provide him with a new angle. Then, he thrusts himself into you again as your mouth hangs open in a silent gasp for air.
"There she is, that's what you needed. Yeah, little one?' He does it again, brushing against that one spot that makes your toes curl. "The other boys never did it, did they?"
You whine, knees bending besides his hips as you attempt to follow after him when he pulls back.Â
But he's quick to tut and knock you back down onto your ass. "No. You don't rush me, darling. We do this my way. On my time. If I wanna stay here and fuck you nice and slow, then youâll behave, and youâll fucking take me.â
Youâd like to agree, but heâs thrusting himself back in before you can.
"You will thank me for taking my time," he continues in a coarse cadence that seems to reverberate from his chest. "You will thank me...for being so goddamn good to you. And you will thank meâŚfor doing it right."
"Harry, pleaseâ" you just about wail, hands finding his arms as you grasp on for dear life.
But the fingers around your throat tighten until the edges of your vision begin to blur.
"There you fucking go again," he growls, stilling his rhythmic attacks as he meets your eye. He seems to enjoy watching your focus go fuzzy. "Starting to think you like to be punished, hm? And here I thought you had a praise kink."
You clutch onto his wrist, nails scratching along the veins in his arm as he pounds into you at a harder pace.
But you don't mind. You enjoy watching him give into the voices inside his head. Enjoy the way his chocolate brown curls sweep across his forehead, the way his eyebrows weave together and the muscles in his jaw constrict.
For a 34-year-old man, he seems to possess quite a bit of stamina. He'd mentioned earlier his enjoyment for running and exercising, detailing his rather excessive and diligent routine.
And you'd smirked because you'd assumed he was showing off or because he was trying to stay ahead of the inevitable "dad-bod" in his future.
But now you understand why he's really so meticulous. He's a long way from looking his age. Apart from some subtle, but soft crinkles near his eyes and a few gray hairs that peek through the auburn waves, he looks rather youthful.Â
And his body. You swallow another noise as you let your hungry gaze trail over every inch, every muscle, every quiver in his thighs as he braces himself above you.
Sir feels like a more appropriate title to you now. Because he is. He is your superior in this moment A man to be respected and revered. Someone who not only knows better,.but knows you. Knows your body and how to play it like an instrument.Â
There's something exciting about submitting to him. Something tantalizing about being at his mercy. Most of the other men you've been with have felt more like your equals than anything else. Which you haven't minded in the least bit.
But the way Harry has managed to fit you into the submissive, subservient role so quickly suggests that perhaps...this is where you were always meant to be.
Beneath him.
"Oh, honey," he coos, a mix of condescension and amusement. "Can feel you squeezin' me. Need it so bad, don't you? Need to come, hm?"
"Yes. Yes," you whisper, nuzzling your face into his neck, lips eagerly pressing into the salty skin at your disposal. "Please, HaâSir. Please let me come. Can't...can't hold itâ"
"You will,â he says before heâs grabbing hold of your wrist and hosting it above your head. Burying into the pillow and preventing you from reaching for your clit. âForget it, Princess. Told you to take me. So you will. Exactly how I tell you.âÂ
"Sirâ"
"I said no. I plan to keep you here for quite some time. Plan to feel you coming around my cock as many times as I see fit. And I expect you to behave for me the way you promised. Can you do that? Or do I need to stop?"
"No," you gasp, tears springing to your eyes at the very thought. "No, no, pleaseâ"
"Then what are you going to do?"
You swallow a moan and lift your chin proudly. "Take it."
A pleased smile crawls across his face as he hums and dips down to press his mouth to yours. "There she is," he murmurs, nipping at your bottom lip. "My good girl. Try to remember that, yeah? Or I'll keep you here all day."
However, thatâs something else you wouldn't exactly mind, and you shiver as he pushes your knee into your chest.
"Fucking hell, Dot," he mumbles, eyes falling back down to where you're coating his cock. "Oh, my perfect toy. Look at the way you treat me, honey. Treat me so well, fucking soaking me, aren't youâ"
"Yes, Yes, pleaseâŚ"
"I know. I know, little one. Feels so good to be filled, yeah? To be fucked the right wayâ"
"God, yes. More...pleaseâ"
"More, huh? Need more? Need me to make it better? Need me to fucking takeâ"
Suddenly, your phone rings.
The soft, melodic chime cuts through Harryâs vulgar response, bringing the moment to a close as his thrusts falter and he glances over.
God, you hate that stupid, evil, sadistic machine. Right now, you wish you'd never bought it. You wish you could throw it again the wall until it shatters into a thousand fucking pieces so as long as he just keeps going.
Instead, he searches your nightstand for the small device before he's releasing your leg in order to reach for it.Â
"No, Har," you plead, attempting to grab onto his hand. "Just let it go to voicemail, it's fineâ"
"But that wouldn't be very polite, now, would it?" he tuts, glancing over the screen. "And I think you need to take this, darling."
"Harry, pleaseâ"
"Shh," he says sharply. âYou're gonna take this phone call and you're gonna use your word. And then, and you're gonna come for me."
His thumb hovers over the green button and he guides the phone to your ear.Â
"And you're not gonna make a fucking sound," he adds, dropping his voice to a threatening hiss before pressing the receiver to your ear. "Or I fucking stop. Do you understand?"
You do your best to nod, and he smiles before tapping the screen.
Through a slight quiver, you say, "Hello?"
"Hey! Long time no talk, babe. How are you?"
Your eyes just about pop out of your head.
Atta.
Her cheerful tone and eager greeting make the blood drain from your face as you look up at the man hovering above you.
"Speak," he mouths with a wicked grin while nodding his chin at you.Â
But you can't. You physically cannot get the words to come out of your mouth as Harry keeps the device glued to the side of your head.
"H...hi," you stammer, forcing a more confident cadence. "I'm...good. How...how are you?"
"Oh, I'm good. Good, yeah," your sister replies, and you hear a bit of shuffling. "Been working a lot. Got today off, which is nice. God, you'd never believe how much shit we have to go through since we changed our filing systemâ"
"Mhm," you reply right as Harry rams his hips into yours.
You gasp and quickly turn your head away from the phone in an attempt to keep the excitable noise from making it into the microphone.Â
However, he uses his other hand to grasp onto your jaw and force you back. "No," he whispers, shooting you a stern look of warning. "You know better."
"âwhich is wild because we've been using the same program since '08," Atta is saying, although you can hardly hear her over the imminent pleasure rushing through your veins. "But...whatever. Once we're done, it'll make things so much easier. Which will be nice. I can cut back on my hoursâ"
"Yeah, mhm," you repeat, and it's outrageously strained as Harry pulls himself out, leaving you depraved and so goddamn empty.
You have to fight the urge to cry out for him, glancing down at the string of arousal that follows his cock. And it's almost too much for you to handle as you greedily reach for him once more.
However, he bats your hands away and brings his free fingers from your chin to your clit, rubbing into the sensitive nerves until you arch up.
"âso, yeah. What about you?"
Your eyes squeeze shut as that tightly wound ball of pleasure in your stomach expands. "I'm...I...good. I'm...good. You know, not...not a lot going on. At the moment."
Harry smirks to himself before sinking all the way back in and thrusting up.
Your lip fights its way between your teeth and you writhe beneath his chest while praying for the strength to stay quiet.
"Well...I guess no news is good news, yeah?" she chuckles. "Oh, hey, speaking of which...I heard that Harry's in town."
That's not the only thing he's in.Â
"Oh?" you squeak, placing a palm on Harry's chest almost as if in retaliation. "He is?"
"Yeah. Saw it on Facebook," she answers, and you hear her move around. "Figured he might try to reach out. I know you guys are still on good terms, right?"
"Me and Harry?" you repeat pointedly, garnering a curious look from the aforementioned man. "Uh...we're...yeah. I guess. But weâre notâŚthat close."
He grins.
"Well...I just thought I'd let you know in case he does," she says, and your lashes flutter shut as the guilt begins to find you.
"Would it be weird...if he did?" you ask before the patterns being traced against your clit make you whimper.
Terrified, you quickly cough in an attempt at burying the sound, but Atta doesn't seem to hear.Â
"I mean...maybe? I don't know. He and I are fine, I think. And I know you two were friends. I guess you could at least...check on him. Make sure he's doing okay."
"Yeah," you breathe, sneaking a glance up. "I'm...I'm sure he's doing just fine."
Harry smiles once more before moving his palm to your thigh and pressing it into the bed to spread you at a different angle.Â
"I hope," Atta sighs. "Anyway, I wanted to call and check in. Just to make sure everything is going okay for youâ"
"Mhm, yeah. I'm...I'm glad you did," you blubber while attempting to send Harry a pointed look. You're close. So fucking close, and if he keeps going...
"Are you sure you're all right? You sound a bit flusteredâ"
"Yes. Yes, yes, I'm..." Your head shakes quickly, nails scratching down Harry's chest in warning. He needs to stop. He needs to stop or you won't make it. "I'm fine. I'm...a little under the weather, but I'mâ"Â
Suddenly, he sheathes himself inside your cunt, face burying in your neck with a groan as your entire body shivers.
"Are you sure? You kind of sound like you're in painâ"
"Listen, Atta, I...I gotta goâ" you gasp, so close to your orgasm that you can practically taste it. âIâm sorryââ
"Oh, yeah. Hey, text me, okay? Just let me know that you're all rightâ"
"Mhm, yeah, I willâfuckâ"
It happens before you can stop it. Ripping through every muscle and fiber in your body as you rake your fingers down Harry's back and choke on a moan.
Thankfully for you, Harry has already ended the call and thrown the phone to the other side of the room so he can loop his arm beneath your hips and tug you up into his body.
"Go," he breathes. "Give it to me. Come on, little one. Just like that. Good fucking girl, just like that. Let me feel youâ"
Your room fills with the sound of his name, dancing effortlessly between the whimpers that follow.
It feels like you've touched heaven. A sensation so overwhelming and euphoric that you don't even realize his hand has returned to your throat. Don't realize he's squeezing your neck in his tight fist as he comes, filling your cunt with everything he has to give you.
You don't even realize you can't breathe, but you love it. Love the way he presses his teeth into your shoulder and presses his body into your chest. Until you're trapped against the mattress while you live through the high.Â
Every joint in your body aches. Radiating pain and pleasure all at once as you hook your leg over his hip and snake your arms around his neck.
And you keep him inside of you for what feels like hours. Even after you've regained a bit of consciousness. And a bit of common sense.
Perhaps the moment he pulls out, you'll realize the mistake you've made. Youâll realize that this isn't a secret you can keep. Or a choice that you can ever choose again. And maybe heâll realize it, too.
But until thenâŚ
Youâre happy to have your Harry back.

All Dressed Up
Pairing: Biker!Bucky Barnes x Female Reader
Summary: Bucky visits a gallery to support his best friend and unexpectedly meets the girl of his dreams.
Word Count: Over 2.3k
Warnings: First meeting, mild dirty thoughts, instacrush, swearing, Bucky Barnes (he's a warning, okay?).
A/N: Okay, lovelies. A new AU. I'm sorry. @targaryenvampireslayer @tavners @starlightcrystalline @whisperlullaby @sgt-seabass @vesearlee , I feel like you all either heard me screech, encouraged, or helped me, and I appreciate you. â¤ď¸ Not beta read and written on my phone, so any and all mistakes are my own. Edit by the beautiful @nixakimbo and divider by the incredible @firefly-graphics . Please follow @navybrat817-sideblog for new fics and notifications. Comments, reblogs, feedback are loved and appreciated!
Bucky didnât dress up for most people since it wasnât his style. He would do so for any of his brothers though, especially Steve. His best friend since childhood, and his clubâs president, he always had a love and talent for drawing and painting. And after working his ass off on his exhibit it wouldâve been a crime for the vice president not to show up.
Steve promised if there was ever a day when Buckyâs writing became published heâd be by his side to celebrate too. As much as they liked to give each other shit sometimes about art and how they created it, the support was there through and through. The only catch for tonight was that he had to dress nicely to get into the gallery. So, instead of the usual leather jacket or vest he wore and jeans, he went with a plain black suit and white button up shirt.
He refused to wear a tie since it wasnât a wedding. He had to draw a line somewhere. No one paid him any mind though as they walked around the gallery, and he was more than fine with that. This wasnât his night.
âYou should be proud, punk,â Bucky said, looking over the art lining the large wall, each piece crafted with care.
âI am proud, jerk,â Steve smiled. He hadnât worn a tie either, and it made Bucky feel a little better. âAnd you know you donât have to stay the whole time.â
Bucky knew that. He also knew members and prospects would be trickling in and out throughout the evening. âNot needed at the bar tonight, so I can stay as long as I want. But I might cut out early since I see your face enough between that and the club.â
Steve chuckled. âStill havenât sold the place, huh?â
The brunette sighed. It wasnât the first time Steve asked if he was going to sell the bar to focus more on writing. âWhere the hell would you all hang out if I sold the place?â He liked the bar. It wasnât just a great hangout for the club, but for his other regulars, too.
âThere are other bars,â Steve teased. He said that, but he loved the bar, too. âYou know I just want you to-â
âFollow my compass. I know. Youâve said that so manyâŚâ He stopped talking when he saw an unexpected angel walk into the room.
Well, angel was the word that came to mind since you were wearing a white dress and the light over your head illuminated you like a halo. But as his eyes swept over you, he wondered if there was a bit of a devil in you. He wouldnât mind bringing that side out of you if you gave him the chance.
And here he used to think love at first sight was bullshit.
âHey. Do you know her?â Bucky subtly nodded in your direction as you spoke to another woman, jealousy flaring up for a second at the thought of his best friend knowing you and not telling him. And if you knew Steve, that was that before things even started. While the blonde didnât have much game growing up, he came into his own after his growth spurt, and everyone adored or wanted him.
Steve shook his head. âNo, I donât,â he said, making Buckyâs shoulders slump in relief before his friend scrutinized him. âJesus, are you eye fucking her? You are, arenât you?â
Bucky wasnât the least bit ashamed. âAnd Iâll keep doing it âtil she looks at me,â he replied, wishing youâd at least spare him a glance and get a look at him in his nice suit. Maybe you werenât into guys with tattoos and piercings, but he was certain he could change your mind if that was the case.
âHow long has it been since youâve been on a date?â Steve asked. âJust introduce yourself like a gentleman and see where that goes.â
âA couple of months? Something like that.â Tearing his gaze away to glance at his inked hands, he chuckled. âYou think Iâm a gentleman?â
He could be dangerous and downright dirty when the occasion called for it, but just because he rode a motorcycle and covered himself in tattoos and piercings didnât mean he treated others poorly. He was raised better than that. Even with his ex-girlfriends, things never ended because he didnât treat them well. They just werenât the one.
âWe both know you are. Sometimes,â Steve answered, smirking as a beat passed. âAnd sheâs looking your way.â
Buckyâs head snapped up to find you looking right at him with a curious stare. You had the prettiest eyes he had ever seen. Which was nothing compared to your smile. It was like watching the sun slowly rise to meet the day.
Fuck, he was being sappy. You ruined him with a single stare, and he wanted to ruin you in return. Make it so you wouldnât want another man.
You whispered something to the woman beside you before she nudged you forward and he realized Steve pushed him to move, too. It only took three more steps before he was right in front of you, the gentle smell of your sweet perfume filling his nostrils. Need slammed into his body as you smiled again, and he actually felt the blue of his eyes shrink as his pupils widened.
If Steve thought he was eye fucking you beforeâŚ
âHey,â he said, his voice raspier than usual.
âHi,â you said. It was a voice he could listen to for hours and he wondered what it would sound like when you said his name.
âIâm Bucky.â He took a smaller step closer, trying his damnedest to block out any other man around him so youâd keep those pretty eyes on him.
You introduced yourself, too, and it was a name he would never forget. âI like your tattoos,â you added almost shyly. Almost.
If he had his way, youâd see the rest of them soon enough. âThanks,â he smiled, holding one hand up to show you. âDressed like this, I bet you think Iâm part of the mob.â After getting dressed and adding the gold jewelry, even he thought for a split second he looked like a mobster.
âAre you or is that information I canât be privy to?â you asked, making him chuckle. You didnât skip a beat, and he liked that.
âNot part of the mob, but I am part of a motorcycle club,â he replied. He wore his patch with pride and that didnât seem to scare you, which was good. âI also own a bar.â He didnât know why added that part. You didnât ask and he didnât want to brag, but there he was.
âSo, you ride a motorcycle, and you own a bar?â You glanced back at your friend to ask her, âDo you mind if IâŚâ
âIâm good. You two talk,â your friend smiled, giving Bucky an encouraging wink. He looked back to find that Steve walked away, too.
You smiled as you faced Bucky again. âWell, Iâm happy to hear more about either of those things if you have time.â
âYeah.â A lopsided smile appeared before he could stop it. âI got time,â he said. All the time in the world.
Over the next hour, the two of you stayed close together and talked in between looking at Steveâs pieces. He told you he was there to support Steve and talked a little bit more about the bar he owned. A hole in the wall kind of place he fixed up. While he wasnât a big drinker, he loved making them for his regulars, and his profession allowed him to get away with all the tattoos.
âIâll have to stop by sometime,â you smiled before it faltered. âIf thatâs okay.â
He didnât want to get his hopes up, but his heart raced, and he wanted to see you smile again. âIâll hold you to that,â he teased. âWhat about you? What do you do for work?â
You told him that you were a blood bank nurse and still fairly new to the area. While you didnât have too many friends nearby, you liked your neighborhood and the one friend you had made invited you to the gallery since she was an art enthusiast. You also let it slip that you were single upon your move here, which he was happy to hear since he was, too, but he didnât miss the note of sadness in your voice.
He could help fix it if you were lonely.
âIâm not seeing anyone either,â he stated.
You raised an eyebrow in disbelief. âYou donât have an old lady?â His eyes went right to your lip when he bit it. âThat is the correct term of endearment, right?â
âThatâs right,â he said, his eyes soft. âBoth of those things are right.â
You bit your lip again and he wasnât sure if you were purposely trying to entice him, but now he wanted to bite your lip. âSo, do you do anything for fun outside of riding and work?â
He almost groaned when you said âridingâ and he had to shake his head to keep his mind from drifting. He couldnât think of you being on his bike with your arms wrapped tight around him or you riding him or anything like that. âWellâŚâ
He explained that he wrote a bit in his spare time outside of work and the club. It was a hobby mostly, but it would be a dream come true to get his work out there one day. If not, that was okay, too, because he had a decent life and didnât need much. His bike, his brothers.
But to have an old ladyâŚ
âMaybe I could readâŚâ you frowned when you saw the time. âOh, Iâm sorry. I didnât realize how late it was. I should get going,â you said, disappointment filling both of you.
âOh.â He scratched the back of his neck. The two of you were having a nice talk, and he hadnât had a chance to ask about your hobbies yet. âItâs still kinda early. Do you really have to go?â he asked, realizing just how desperate he sounded. God, if the prospects could hear him right now⌠He just didnât want the night to end.
âYeah, I do. Iâm actually working a blood drive tomorrow and could use the rest,â you said, smiling sadly. He felt like an ass for asking you to stay when you had work to do. âI donât know if youâve heard anything about it, but youâre welcome to stop by if you want to donate. I always have this fear that people wonât show, which I realize sounds ridiculous.â
Bucky mentally kicked his ass for not knowing about a local blood drive. He was usually more on top of those sorts of things. âWhereâs it at?â You gave the location and time, which was all he needed. âIâll be there,â he promised.
And every single club member would be there, too, if they knew what was good for them.
âReally?â you smiled, your hand bumping his when you turned to face him. âYouâll go?â
He let his fingers brush yours and he smiled to himself when he felt the light shiver. âOf course, doll.â
âDoll?â you giggled. He hoped he didnât offend you. âI hope you show,â you added in a small voice, your gaze focused on the ground.
Frowning a bit, he wondered if you didnât believe him. Did someone let you down before? âIf I say Iâll be thereâŚâ He lifted your chin, so youâd look into his eyes. He needed you to see the truth in them. âIâll be there.â
You exhaled, staring deeply into his eyes. âIâll see you tomorrow then,â you whispered.
He grudgingly released you, knowing he had to. Besides, if he kept touching you, there was a good chance heâd pin you against the wall and show you what a work of art you were. âGood night,â he whispered, watching you go back to your friend. She linked her arm with yours as you glanced back, keeping your eyes on Bucky until you were out of sight.
He exhaled, mentally kicking his ass again. Why the fuck didnât he ask for your number? You two hit it off, and you wanted to see him at least in some capacity beyond the blood drive, right?
Steve made a beeline for him as he stayed rooted to the spot. âIt looks like you two hit it off. You know you didnât even say hi to Chris or Sam or-â
âWeâre going to a blood drive tomorrow,â he cut in. He hoped people would show, but he gave you his word heâd be there, and the club was all about giving back to the community.
The blondeâs eyebrows pinched. âIâm sorry, what?â
âBlood drive. Tomorrow. Everyone,â he said, giving his friend a hard stare. âYouâre the president. Make it happen.â
âYouâre the vice president, which means you supervise plans for club events or gatherings. That includes last minute things,â he pointed out, his eyebrows shooting up as Bucky got his phone out and typed quickly. âYouâre serious about this?â
âIs it too much to say, âYou better fucking be there or youâll pay for it laterâ?â
The blonde grinned. A shit-eating, knowing grin, and he wanted to smack him. âThis is all for her, isnât it?â
Bucky sighed. He hadn't expected to meet someone so perfect tonight. âSheâs a nurse and I wanna help. Besides, itâs good for the community and youâre all about that shit.â And he had to make a better impression after not asking for your number. âWill you at least promise youâll be there?â
âTo watch my whipped best friend fawn over a pretty nurse? Hell yeah.â
âBeautiful,â he corrected him. âSheâs beautiful.â
And while Bucky would fawn over you tomorrow, he also hoped heâd get your number.
So, what do we think so far? Part of this writing style was slightly different for me, but I like how it turned out! I still need to give this reader a nickname and the AU a name, but this is a start. I can't wait for the whole club to show up at the blood drive. I also have something silly and cute planned for these two. â¤ď¸ Love and thanks for reading! â¤ď¸

At Least We Have Eachother
KANG DAE-HO X READER
Summary- Dae-ho and you both join the squid games for the benefit of the other. Neither of you know about it, until you find each other after the first game.
Warnings- Squid Games, mentions of blood, murder, and death
A/N- Thank you guys for the overwhelming support with my Daeho fic. I am so motivated right now, it's not even funny. He is such a sweet baby, MY SHAYLAAAA
Word Count- 1,192
Your debt was not something you were proud of. To be honest, it crept up on you. It started with medical bills, then Daeho ran into some Ex-Marines, who dragged him into a bad gamble.
From there it kind of went down hill. Struggling to pay bills, borrowing more money, making the wrong people mad. In other words, the two of you were in an extremely bad position.
When a strange man with a suitcase approached you on your way home, you were hesitant. In any other situation you might have ignored him and walked away. But, you had just had another invoice from a debt collecting company. Not to mention the loan shark that came up and threatened Daeho two days prior. The eviction notice was also putting a hole on your kitchen table.
The idea of following the funny-looking card, winning a bunch of money, clearing your (and Daeho) debts. It was too good to be true, you knew that deep down. At the end of the day, you were at rock bottom. Desperate people do desperate things.
So, while slipping Daeho a simple lie about spending the night with a friend... You took off to the discrete location alone. Where you were picked up by a van. You don't remember much after that.
The regret sunk in deep when you realized what you had gotten yourself into. When you awoke seeing hundreds of people around you, all in the same position, you were noticeably scared. You barely left the bed you woke in. Only to stand with the crowd to listen to the guards and sign the needed contract. It seemed too late to back out now...
The first game was lonely, intimidating, and revealing. The only reason you weren't lying head face in the sand dead, was your fear. It struck you stone-cold still on 'red light'. The ring of your ears pressured you to move forward on 'Green light.' Due to the deadly shots to other players. It pushed you to move so you didn't suffer the same fate.
You were much too nervous to talk to anyone, you saw little point in making friends at first. That was until the realization of any team games.
After the first game was officially over and you had returned to the common room, you'd taken a moment to think. To think how it would be if you were able to walk home now. How it probably wouldn't even matter if you had died, so many people were out for your head anyways. It was all looking dark, but Daeho was your light. He was always so positive, he kept you happy. You owed it to him to keep fighting.
To keep fighting for that adorable, handsome, sweet face. That same face that was currently staring you down....
"Daeho?" You questioned, just in case your mind was playing a trick on you.
"What are you doing here!" He ran over, pulling you further behind the layered beds. His grip was tight on your arm, once the two of you stopped, he seemed to notice. At that he quickly loosened his squeeze.
"W-why are you here! I-I thought you were sleeping over at-" You cut him off, your guilty conscience taking over.
"Daeho, what are you doing here?" You rebutted, frantically pushing your hair back. He knew you were nervous.
"To settle some of our debt, but that doesn't even matter anymore. People are dying, you can't be here!" He stressed over you. He did a few takes over your form, making sure you were not hurt in any way. You thought he was finished until he slowly brought his hand up. He stuck his thumb out and seared a few drops of blood off of your cheek. You hadn't noticed them before...
An argument against him was impossible to think of, but you managed. "Well I can say the same about you! You could get killed also. Where would that leave me!" He threw his head back, pressing both hands over his face. He dragged them down, an annoyed expression on his face.
"Ohhh, this can not be happening.. I-it doesn't matter, because you're here, where you were not supposed to be!" He started to fidget with his fingers, a sign he was distressed.
"Dae...I'm also here because... I got fired yesterday..." You looked down, picking at your nails. His head snapped to look at yours. "What?"
"They were... overstaffed and, apparently a younger employee could do the same amount of work for minimum wage... So, they just got rid of me..." He looked sympathetic, but still mad.
"You should have told me. We would have figured it out. You didn't have to lie."
You thought for a second, "Its not like I wanted to lie! I was trying to help us!"
"How reckless!" He said. It was almost comical!
A laugh pushed its way out, "Oh my gosh, don't act like you aren't here too!" You started to raise your voice, frustrated.
He took a single step back, hands on his hips. "You're supposed to be the smart one! I'm fun, loving, a burst of fricken light!" He said, his words contradicting his tone, not joyfully at all.
"Whatever! What matters now is that we were stuck in a death trap! The money is not even our first problem. We might not even be alive before the day is over! Or worse, you'll be dead and I'll be left to suffer!"
He gave another sigh, stepping forward and embracing you. It was exactly what both of you needed. His arms wrapped impossibly tight around you. You could only reciprocate the squeeze. His head fell on top of yours, he nestled in.
"I don't want to argue, I just want you safe... We will be fine." He said, keeping you in his grasp.
"I know, but I just wanted to help... The man seemed so promising, that we could have a normal life again." You wanted to let your tears flow, but you couldn't risk looking weak. You had to remind yourself that there were still a couple hundred other players in the large room.
He shook his head on top of yours, "I would live in a tent as long as I was with you.... I can manage anywhere, as long as you are by my side..."
You pulled back to look at him. Your arms still wrapping around each other. "I just, I know you're not happy... I wanted to clear everything up, one day own our own house. One that we can never get evicted from." He pushed a stray hair behind your ear.
"Oh Dae, I don't care about that. I just want you." You shoved your head into his chest.
"I love you.."
"I love you too."
"What the hell are we going to do here." You questioned, peaking up from his chest slightly.
"Were going to stick together. We're going to get out of this alive." He pulled back and down to press a firm and reassuring kiss on your lips. Maybe things would be so bad after all.
Oh, how naive you both were...
A/N- Honestly, I like my first Daeho fic better. But that's probably because I am a SUCKER for emotional hurt/comfort. Anyways, I hope y'all enjoyed this one. Pls lmk how I can improve!!!

When Jinx came knocking at your door tonight, you didn't think you'd end up in this position: her hands gripping at the skin of your chest and with her head buried in it.
The beginning of your night had kicked off with a strange twist when you heard a knock on your fifth floor appartment's window. You gulped down your fear and with a fast beating heart, looked past the window's glass to see a crouching figure with bright pink eyes staring at you. Any other occasion and you would have died on the spot, but you knew who she was. As soon as you opened the window, the figure let herself in, crawling out of the darkness and into the light of your room. "You are so nice letting me in, piltie" she said, and you don't miss the venom laced in the last word she spoke. "Your people aren't really known to be kind" her long fingers mess with the many little trinkets displayed on your shelves, checking their mechanisms and turning their gears.
"What do you want, Jinx?" you can feel a tingling sense of anger inside your skull at her continuous teasings.
You still remember the first time you had seen her, running from enforcers and covering her wounded shoulder.
You knew how ruthless they could be, especially since Miss Kirramman had taken control over the city. In a strange turn of events, you had found her curled up in one of Piltover's abandoned alleys and brought her with you to your home, taking care of her for the next few days until you found your window open and the blue haired criminal nowhere to be seen. During that time, you grew fond of her and were sad when she disappeared. Some weeks had passed and your life continued to flow normally, until she showed up at your door again. You were actually kind of amazed by the fact that she managed to sneak inside the appartment's building without being noticed, but after the third time, when someone called the enforcers on her, she had begun to climb on the building's exterior and knock at your window instead.
"Oh nothing, just wanted to pay a visit to my favorite piltie" she falls back on your bed, sizing you up from head to toe with that smirk of hers that makes your heart beat faster. "That's all?" the mattress dips under your weight as you sit next to her, always keeping your eyes on hers. "Mhmm, maybe" she fishes something from a bag -one you've just noticed- and shakes it: a small glass globe filled with water and fake flakes of snow. The tallest buildings of Piltover reflect the warm lights of your room, making the city of progress look ethereal under the glass. But it wasn't the shiny buildings or the snowflakes that got your attention, but a small name made with metal and gear parts glued to the bottom of the globe. "No way...is this a real Valdiani?!" the shock in your voice makes Jinx's heart flutter, something that she has never experienced before.
She lets out a proud snuff of air from her nose, pushing her chest outwards, "Consider it a gift for my fav- shit!" the sudden swear catches your attention and you look over to see Jinx doubled over. "Jinx! What is going on?!" It's faint, but you can see her hands wrapped tightly around her left side, traces of blood seeping from between her fingers. "Oh shit! Jinx what happened?" she lets out a breathless chuckle, her skin suddenly far paler than normally. "Hah, just some gift the bluebellies have given me" she sucks in a breath when you move her hands, biting a scream away. A deep wound runs along her side, pus forming where her skin had been pulled back from the slash, bleeding red on your covers. You run outside of your room and collect gauze, antiseptic, healing creme and a glass of water.
"Here, bite this" you hand her an old cloth, which she promptly places in between her teeth. "Ready?" she nods, taking a deep breath and closing her eyes. The heat of your hand is the only thing that brings her comfort. She isn't ready though when you pour the liquid over her wound: it feels like billions of needles stinging and burning her flesh, making her want to vomit.
"There there, it's over..." you quickly dry her skin and massage the healing cream on her, finally finishing when you cover her stomach with the gauze. She releases a huff of relief, mindlessly tangling her fingers with yours. When the pain subsides, she realizes how close the two of you are. You on your knees, her panting and sweating, how close you are to her and how fast her heart is beating. It would take a second, just a second for her to reach for your lips and melt into you...
"Uh... I- uh, just-, what happened?" you try to not sound too shy but your voice gives your feelings away. "I..." Jinx's throat bobs and it seems that she'd rather curl herself up like a hedgehog than admitting whatever she did. "You know, the usual. Went on a walk, stormed a shop, stole some things, got the enforcers called on me and..." she gestures towards her side, "...this happened".
Jinx isn't clear with her words, but something about the blush on her skin hints at the fact that there may be something else underneath her facade. You might try at least, right? Reaching for the glass globe, you twirl it in your hands, watching the snowflakes fall on Piltover. "Jinx...did you get chased after stealing this?", she doesn't answer, but her shy silence is enough for you.
"Why? Why do this for me?" she pouts her lips before answering, still held back by some sort of pride. "W-what can I say? Anything for my favorite piltie...".
A heavy silence fills the room, of the kind that is difficult to bear.
You can't believe it. You just can't believe that she'd be so reckless, so stupid! It's difficult to bite your anger back, but you do so, and instead of crying or screaming or scolding her, like Jinx thought you were going to do, you just hug her tightly against your chest. Your grip is so strong against her that she feels like she'll choke on it.
But you are so warm in comparison to her body, so, so warm. For the first time in a while, after Silco's death, after Vi's betrayal, after everything went to shit, she feels like she can breathe. And so she does, inhaling your scent in between, tasting it on her tongue. When you pull back, Jinx's eyelids are heavy with want, her mouth slightly open and her skin red.
It takes a second for her lips to push against yours, for her hands to come up and grab your face and pull you down towards her. The kiss is surprisingly tender for it to be Jinx's: you expected teeth and tongue, not pecks and soft touches. The way she sighs and runs her hands on your chest has you keening for her. "Jinx..." a small line of spit connects your lips, and before you can say anything else, she wipes it off on your bottom lip and sighs, "You know what piltie? I think I deserve something too".
Blinking at her a couple of times, she groans at your naivety and continues while taking your cheeks in her hand. "It has been a hard day for me: running from enforcers, bleeding all the way here... I think I deserve a gift too".
And that's where you are now, naked from the waist up with Jinx on your lap, diligently taking what's hers. The way her tongue teases your nipple is something to die for. It seems all her softness has died with the kiss you shared before, now tugging and biting every part of you. You gasp as she bites your nipple, leaving the indents of her teeth on the delicate skin.
"If I knew I could see you all shy and fidgety-" she tugs your left nipple with her long fingers, smiling cruelly when tearing a gasp from you, "...I would have done this earlier". Her lips leave your right nipple, spit chilling the skin, before she teases both of them with the point of her fingernails, moving and tickling them.
Jinx lets out one of those cruel laughs of hers before diving right back on your nipple, giving it one last kiss and moving towards your stomach. She kisses and strokes every one of your scars, every mole or freckle, every inch of skin, until she comes across the hem of your pants. "N-No wait, Jinx..." you place your hand on her forehead, strands of blue hair falling in between your fingers. She halts immediatley at your discomforted voice, billions of little alarms going off in her head and an attentive yet scared look in her eyes. "What is it?".
"I... I have to tell you something" and with that, her heart beats faster and faster and that obnoxious voice inside her head speaks; 'You've hurt her' and 'Look at what you've done' and 'Did you really think she would genuinely like you?'. But your voice is stronger than theirs. "Hey? Is everything alright? We don't have to do this" in the meantime, your hand cups her cheek, thumb stroking at the pale skin. "Yeah I- I am okay. And I want to" her own fingers close in on you and she takes a moment to breathe. Your own warmth is one of the only things that can make her calm. When the voices blur away and only you and her are left, she opens her eyes again, your reflection sharp inside their pink. "What do you have to tell me?" now it was your time to take a breath, because knowing Jinx, she could have two reactions over your news: making fun of you or absolutely losing her shit. "I... I am a virgin".
She takes a moment to process the information and then lets out a wheezing laugh, making blood rise quickly to your face. "That's it?! I thought I accidentally hurt you or something!". The only thing you can do at this point is pout and look away offended. "Oh come on toots" her hands take a hold of your face before turning you to her, who is smiling softly and with tenderness. "I am just kidding. Don't be so moody. And besides..." she captures your lips, biting and licking and sucking until they darken, leaving a faint trace of blood where her teeth were, "...It's so fucking hot".
The descent to get to her prize is tedious and long, but Jinx can't help but want to savor each one of its steps. Her fingers finally hook on the hem of your pants and pull down, revealing your naked thighs to her; the only thing stopping her from claiming her prize is the fabric of your underwear. "Wait a second..." despite how cute you look to her, Jinx rolls her eyes at yet another one of your attempts to stop her. "What, toots? You don't want me to fuck you?" your eyes widen when she so bluntly says that, without an ounce of embarrassment on her face, but continue. "What?! N-no I want to....it's just that..." you eye Jinx's position on the floor. "The wound might be painful if you crouch... I don't want you to hurt yourself".
"So, what do you want me to do?". You look back between Jinx and the plush, comfortable bed, a lightbulb popping off on your head. "Lie on the bed", you say, making Jinx blink a few times before processing and understanding your intentions. "Ohh, I didn't take you for the kinky type, toots". She crawls over the bed, making sure to look as alluring as possible, then lies down with her head pressed on one of your pillows. "There. Do you like this more?" the way that she's so smug about it, with that stupid smirk of hers, makes you want to choke her to death.
"Shut the fuck up", you follow her, placing yourself on each side of her head, feeling her hands rise on your tighs to curl on the soft fabric she so wishes were to disappear. "Hmhm, alright" she eyes the patch of cloth that has begun to show a wet stain, images of what she is going to do to you already flashing in her mind. But this position prevents her from sliding them off without you having to move away from her, and she'd rather keep you and your pussy here. "You know, as much as I love how cute you look with these..." you only have a brief moment to see a malicious glint in her eyes, before she tears your underwear apart, leaving you naked in front of her "I'd much rather have you bare". "Jinx! I just told you to shut up!" it doesn't help that she doesn't mind you and whistles loudly, making you feel more and more embarrassed. "And I -shut up!-. And-and those were expensive! Do you know how-!" but all your words die in your throat when she, with a strength you didn't know she had, pulls you flat against her mouth.
She licks your clit like a starved woman, like it will be the last meal she'll ever have. She doesn't dive right in your pussy, instead takes her sweet time to torture you, making you wish she'd just fuck you already. "Jinx...please, I-" she opens her eyes to see you above her, naked and panting with pleasure, something she only ever dreamt of seeing.
She can't say no to her favorite piltie. Her cold hands grab your ass, propping you up in a new angle on her face so you can't move, but she can do everything she wants to. She spends the next minutes milking your pleasure out of you, before pushing one finger slowly inside of you. You gasp in pain at first, a small trickle of blood wetting your skin and her fingers, and after a few minutes, feeling need arise from the depths of your guts. Jinx's eyes widen when she first feels you move atop her fingers, riding them messily; and she already has a new idea. "No, none of that toots" with her left hand, she yanks your hips down on her fingers, preventing you from moving further. Her next words feel like ice cold water on naked skin; "I won't make you cum if you do it again" and as if that wasn't bad enough, she emphasizes her point with a trust of her fingers. "You will be a good girl, won't you?".
"Yes, yes, yes I will be a good girl..." her smile is all you see before she disappears underneath your thighs. As soon as you get used to the alien feeling of her fingers inside of you, her pace is unrelenting; fast and hard, torturing your clit with her lips. She takes your hips and places your slit directly onto her tongue, forcing you to grind down on it. When you start to wheeze from her touches, she decides to move onto the next phase of her plan. "Hey baby, get up a sec" you would rather keep on grinding on her tongue, but comply anyway. You get up, putting ditance between your slit and her mouth, but while you do, she directly shoves in her fingers, making your legs almost give out. With her other hand she pushes you until your ass is flat against her lap. "Come on, bounce" you don't let her repeat herself twice, already fucking yourself on her fingers at the best of your abilities. What she's seeing is far better than anything she could have ever dreamt of: her favorite piltie bouncing up and down her fingers, eyes heavy and panting above her. And your movements on her own crotch only make her feel more and more euphoric. Oh, if only she could feel you... When she curls her finger on that spot that has you keening, you finally come undone; finger intertwined, billions of stars exploding beneath your eyelids and electricity coursing through your veins. You collapse on her, skin against skin, puffing and gasping for each breath. Your whines reach Jinx's ears and right now, she wants nothing more than to tear orgasms upon orgasms from you, but she'll have to wait.
You roll over, taking a place near her on the bed, shivering from the intensity of your first time. And when Jinx, with a horrifyingly both sweet and sadistic smile turns to you, excitement clear on her face, your pussy clenches around nothing and your blood turns to ice. "So, wanna go again?"

YES to luna lovegood/dreamy!reader!!!!!!!!! Can we possibly get one with Spencer? <3
âItâs not as bad as you think.âÂ
Hotch appreciates the softness of your voice, as someone who also speaks in a very measured tone, but the sound of it has his brow furrowing. Youâre a brilliant analyst, and a worse distraction whenever youâre in the main office.Â
âIt sounds terrible?âÂ
Hotch peers through the window to get a good look at the scene. Youâre sitting in Spencerâs desk chair with your hands stretched out in front of you. Your outfit is very pink, considering the occasion, but itâs a non-abrasive light pink that flatters your skin. You have a clip in your hair, a small silver star with pink jewels embedded along the lines.Â
Emily sips at a cup of coffee, leaning against the desk, her face to the side. Hotch can see her perturbed smile.Â
âItâs fine! Iâve just been sleeping on the sofa.âÂ
âWell. Thatâs a call to pest control.âÂ
Spencer returns to his desk with a frown and two mugs. âPest control?â he asks, the mug he places in front of you steaming.Â
âThereâs a raccoon living in her bedroom.âÂ
Spencer burns himself on his coffee, swearing as he puts it down hurriedly beside yours. âThereâs a what?â Spencer asks.Â
âHeâs friendly. He came in through my vent.âÂ
âSo friendly heâs stolen your bedroom?âÂ
You lean back in Spencerâs chair like itâs a La-Z-Boy, blowing at the hot surface of your drink with a similar lazy smile. âImagine being that little and having such a big bed? When you usually sleep in the garbage?â You give a breathy laugh. âHe must be having the time of his life.âÂ
âHow are you getting ready in the mornings?â Spencer asks worriedly.Â
âWeâre cohabiting.âÂ
Spencer licks his lips. He likes you, and you seem aware of that fact, and thatâs nerve-wracking for everyone involved.Â
âUm, maybe we can make him a house? Like, outside? Raccoons are far happier in their natural habitat, and theyâre also, you know, highly diseased and contagious compared to humans. I really donât think you should let him inside.âÂ
âSpencer,â you say, giving him a dozy grin, âI didnât let him in. He knows how to get in all by himself.âÂ
âIâll call a repairman, too,â Emily says with a groan.Â
She walks away, probably to find JJ and get her in on the repairs. Spencer looks at you for a long time, just drinking your tea, and Hotch mentally goads him into making a semblance of a move. Even if itâs just to fix your drooping hair clip.Â
âYouâre looking at me strangely again,â you say.Â
Winces all around. âAm I?â Spencer asks.Â
âYes. Is this about Thursday?âÂ
âNo.â Spencer swallows. âYes. You didnât answer my texts, after. I just want to know what youâre thinking.â
âWhat Iâm thinking?âÂ
âYeah. I thought about it a lot, so maybe you did too. Or maybe you didnât, and it didnât mean anything.âÂ
âOf course it meant something, Spencer.â You put down your mug, dusting your knees off before you stand. Spencer is not much taller than you where youâre standing in front of him, but you look up at him anyways. Your face tips ever so slightly to one side. âWould you want to do it again?â you ask softly.Â
Spencer looks around the office. He neglects to check Hotchâs window, perhaps because the blinds are more often drawn than not, and so he doesnât realise Hotch is watching as he draws you in for a kiss.Â
You preen and lean back, hands fighting to cup his cheeks, a gauzy, practically gleaming aura around you as you smile into his mouth. Your fingertips tease his hair, and Spencerâs hand settles in place against the small of your back. You kiss back for only a few seconds before youâre laughing.
Spencer moves away quickly, taking your wrists into his hands to pull them away from his face.Â
âYou give up too fast,â you say.Â
âI donât think this is the place for it.âÂ
âWell, we canât do it at my place. What if the raccoon sees?âÂ
âGood point. How about Marinaâs, would that be better? We can get dinner at the same time.âÂ
Hotch feels oddly proud of Spencerâs suave suggestion, but he also has a migraine brewing between his brows. He really doesnât need the extra paperwork.Â

sub yandere inmate x gn! prison warden reader
thank u all for 1000+ notes on my last post omg....<3 short fic about an idea i had as i work on part 2 of the sub yandere x himbo reader âĄâĄâĄ kinda wriothesley inspired coz thats bae...
cw: mentions of nsfw
"so let me get this straight." you sighed, looking at the man who was currently on the other side of the bars in disappointment. "you beat up some of the other inmates and got into a fight because.... they were talking shit about me?"
"exactly..... they were saying you were too strict! but they don't know how much you care for us.... such ungrateful bastards." his last words came out with an obvious distaste. he held the bars of his cell tightly, looking into your eyes imploringly for any sign of validation. "aren't... aren't you proud of me?"
you pinched the bridge of your nose in frustration. "no. you can't just hurt other people for my sake. i'm your warden. i can handle a few snarky comments." he had always been rather attached to you, but he had been acting overly clingy and whiny in the past few weeks. you wondered if solitary confinement was finally getting to his head.
at your words, he crumbled a little, sadness evident in the lines of his pout. your approval meant everything to him, so you being annoyed with him was the worst feeling in the world. but all of a sudden, he perked back up, seemingly coming up with a devilish idea. his voice dropped to a low whisper. "you know.... if you're that upset with me, i'm always ready for punishment." to get his point across, he pressed his ass to the bars, moaning softly as he felt the cold metal graze his hole. "a spanking would be perfect."
you immediately took a step back, glaring at him. "i don't believe in corporal punishment." you said sternly, trying to deter him from getting any more perverted ideas in his head. "you're not even really interested in getting better, are you?"
"whaaat. i am! come onnnnn. the only way you can get me to behave is if you spank me. i'll be a good boy. i promise."
"you know what would be a better punishment?"
"what?" his eyes light up at the thought of you taking the initiative to put him in his place.
"if i don't partake in your twisted scenarios and leave right now. try not to get into any more fights, okay?" you walked away, shaking your head as you wondered what on earth you would do with this pathetic man.
"seriously? no! come back...." he whined, slumping back down onto his bed, defeated. but at least he had got your attention with that stunt... you had been paying far more attention to the other inmates recently.
he giggles to himself, staring up at the ceiling of his cell. a few years meant nothing, if it meant that once he was out he could live out the rest of his days as your malewife, taking care of your every need. that was the one thing keeping him going. you wouldn't be so cruel as to deny him of his fantasy, would you?

I am genuinely so proud of my wife for becoming a crafts person over the last few years.
Like, I was always a crafts person. I was an arts and crafts kid. My parents sent me to classes or summer camps or after-school clubs pretty much continuously from when I was about 5 years old, and over the years I did metalsmithing, stained glass, polymer clay sculpting, loom weaving, oil painting, charcoal drawing, clothes-making & tailoring, carpentry, woodcarving, macrame, miniatures, beading, jewelry-making, basket weaving, leatherworking, paper-making, bookbinding, papier mache, decoupage, sand sculpting, and probably more that I'm forgetting. There was never a day in my life while I was growing up when my entire bedroom floor wasn't taken up by 2-5 different ongoing art projects. As an adult, it's given me the firm confidence that I can walk up to pretty much any crafting skill, and get the hang of it, and enjoy doing it.
My wife never had that. She wrote, but that was really her only artistic outlet. Art & craftsmanship were just not any of her business. She always expressed admiration for my gumption when it came to making things with my hands, usually with a "bigger idiots than me have done it" attitude, but she was certain she'd be bad at it if she tried it, and that she wouldn't have fun. As evidence, she would offer every time in her life when she had attempted to learn a craft, and didn't have fun, and all the Arts And Crafts kids picked it up a lot faster than her.
Which like - yeah! Learning how to do a new craft is a skill all on its own! Fine motor control is a skill developed over time! So is spatial reasoning, and materials intuition! She wasn't just 'trying to learn wreath-making,' or whatever, she was trying to learn how to learn how to make something with her hands AND wreath-making, at the same time, so of course it would take her longer than the kids who already had the first part, and of course it would be more frustrating for her. I knew she wasn't uniquely bad at crafts: she just didn't know how to approach picking them up, because she was never encouraged to learn.
And then the pandemic hit.
And while we were all trapped inside and going insane in new and exciting ways to all of us, she tentatively decided to pick up embroidery. She probably wouldn't stick with it, she explained: she'd probably be bad at it. It probably wouldn't be fun. But she thought embroidery was pretty, and literally what else did she have going on?
And then she did stick with it. For over a year. And she got pretty good at it! She embellished a baseball hat for her sister with cactuses and wildflowers from where they grew up which came out adorable. She made an embroidered portrait of one of our friends' cat that they still have displayed in their entryway. And she discovered - and remarked on it often, with mild surprise - that she was having fun. She'd say a lot of stuff like "this stitch was so frustrating at first, but now that I get it I really like doing it," or "I kept getting this tangled but I've figured it out now. I just needed to relax."
Then she took up pottery. We did that as a couple for about a year, too. Now she's a knitter.
And it's just been so great, to see her eyes light up when she sees a sweater she likes, and hear her say, "I could make that!" She's slowly let go of the perfectionism that I think holds a lot of people back from doing crafts: that dismay when you make a mistake which leads to discarding a whole project, or starting something over. More and more she's taking on the veteran crafter attitude of "oops lol, whatever I'll just keep going." She's picking things up faster. She's taking pleasure in learning incremental steps. She's started to see crafting as something that relaxes and engages her, instead of as something inherently frustrating. I've gotten to watch her learn to find joy in making something with her hands. I always knew she was creative and artistic and capable of learning how to do anything. It's been so much fun to watch her start to take that on as part of how she sees herself.
We have this running joke about how she will prematurely declare herself to be in an era. Like, she'll go swimming twice and announce that she's now in her "swimming era," and then never go swimming again. Or she'll make one smoothie, buy a bunch of fruit, and declare that we are now in a "smoothie era," and then a week later we have to throw out a bunch of fruit that's gone bad.
The other day (while she was knitting, and I was sitting on the couch next to her doing crochet), she went, "I feel like I've gotten - like, I'm a bit crafty these days, I think. Like, I've done a couple of different crafts, and gotten pretty good at them. I think this is now, kind of, you know...something that I can say that I do."
I supplied that I would even go so far as to say that she was in her "crafting era."
Her eyes widened. "It's an era?"
I pointed out that it was something she'd been doing pretty much continuously for the last three and a half years. That feels like the start of an era to me.
"Yes," she decided. "It's an era. This is my crafts era. I'm a crafts person now."
She's planning to make me a sweater with a duck on it for fall.

Daughter (Slight NSFW)
They keep sayin' that I ain't nothin' like my father
But I'm the furthest thing from choir boys and altars
If you cross me, I'm just like my father
I am colder than Titanic water
Synopsis: You and Joe's relationship is fairly new, and you are taken by surprise when a pregnancy test comes up positive. However, your boyfriend's reaction was the opposite of what you expected. Especially when he has just signed his five year contract extension which is now the highest in the NFL
Pairing: Boyfriend!Joe Burrow x Girlfriend!Reader
Requested by: a beautiful anon đ
Do not engage if you are underage
Please Do Not Repost My Content Anywhere
Soft kisses being placed across your shoulder blade had pulled you out of a deep sleep and you noticed that the sun was barely making itself known as you wrapped the comforter tighter around you to keep in all of the warmth that you possibly could.
You shut your eyes once more, but then you suddenly heard his voice.
âBaby doll, you awake?â You heard your boyfriend ask you as you felt his fingertips now dancing across your skin.
You opened your eyes and once again had to adjust to the light before answering him.
âI am now.â You quietly said as you heard him laugh.
âGood, turn around so I can see your pretty face.â
Moving your body from facing one side to the other, Joe's face came into view who gave you a sleepy grin when he finally laid his eyes on you.
âA sight I never get tired of waking up to.â As soon as those words left his mouth, you gave him the biggest eye roll possible which made him erupt with laughter once more.
âJoey, I look like a hot ass mess. It's okay though so there's no need to lie to me. We are building this relationship on a foundation of trust.â
âI'm not lying. My girlfriend is gorgeous all the time.â
âHmm, funny. My hair is literally sticking up all over my head because I once again forgot to pack my bonnet, I have bags under my eyes from not getting enough sleep, andâŚâ
Joe simply cut you off by placing a soft kiss on your lips.
âYou need to learn how to just take compliments and stop trying to defend them.â He told you and your response was a simple shrug.
âMaybe one day, but today is not that day. So as I was saying..â You began to speak, but Joe promptly cut you off.
âWouldn't tell you that you're the prettiest girl I ever laid eyes on if it wasn't true.â He told you and you couldn't help but to finally give him a small smile.
âIs that a smile that I see?â He asked as you then scrunched your nose up at him.
âHmph, not anymore.â
âI never thought I would meet my match when it comes to someone who acts more like Squidward than I do.â
âPatrick is my favorite though.â
âThat's surprising for sure seeing as it doesn't seem that you would have a lot of patience to deal with him.â He said as he pulled you closer to him.
âI make exceptions sometimes. For example, I said yes to going out on a date with you.â
âBABY!â
âJust kidding, babe!â You told him as you pinched his cheek and he promptly rolled his eyes at you.
âAnd it didn't have to do with me being the hottest quarterback in the NFL?â He asked while smirking.
âNo, you know that I could care less about that and what your job is. It just happens to be a plus and a perk of dating you.â You told him being completely honest.
It was quiet for a few seconds as the two of you stared at each other when you finally broke it.
âAre you excited for training camp?â
âYes and no. Yes because I'm excited to get back out there of course and no because I'm not going to be able to spend as much time with you.â
The relationship was fairly new being months old and Joe wanted to spend as much time as possible with you before football took over once more. You were always excited for football season, but even more so now that you had a significant other that played in the NFL.
âJoey, it's your job so I understand. I'm so proud of you and want you to be focused so that you are able to do your absolute best. I'll still be here cheering you on. I promise.â You told him as you brushed a hand through his hair and kissed the tip of his nose.
âI can't wait to be able to look up in my suite at the stadium and see you in there.â
âI can't either. I haven't been to a Bengals game in a while.â
âEven though your dad is a season ticket holder?â
Your dad had been a season ticket holder since before you were born seeing as your grandfather passed it to him. Being a single father to you wasnât easy in the slightest but the love of football was something that the two of you bonded over.
âYes, even that. Ever since I became a chef and opened my restaurant, it's been a lot harder. I just have to find more people that I can trust to keep it up and running so that I'm able to come and see you play. That way I'll be able to give you my undivided attention and not have any worries lingering in the back of my mind.â
âYou act as if Kendall canât do it. She could literally run the restaurant blindfolded.â Joe responded as he was referring to your best friend that you had met in culinary school.
The two of you had met when Joe, Tee, Sam, and Ja'Marr wanted to try a new upscale restaurant in the middle of downtown Cincinnati during the beginning of the off season. It was near closing time when Ja'Marr had asked to meet the head chef; the head chef being you to give his compliments personally. Your eyes as well as Joe's had locked that night and the two of you had been infatuated with each other since. It honestly felt like a lifetime ago and not a few months.
âI know she can and I have to give her more credit. On the other hand, I've definitely been spoiled with it being the off-season and being able to spend as much time with you as I want with you also coming to see me at work.â You told him as he smiled.
As soon as you two had met, Joe would be at the restaurant a few times a week and eventually asked for your number one night. Of course you had told him yes and he found himself coming to visit if he wasnât doing anything else. He always had a specific table that he sat at and would let you know when he was coming to see you so that they could reserve it for him. It was on the second level that looked out over the balcony.
âWhat time are you going in today?â He asked as he noticed that it was barely seven in the morning.
âI probably should have already left since it'll take me a little longer to get there.â You said as you made an attempt to get up, but Joe quickly pulled you back.
Your condo was closer to the restaurant and staying with Joe added close to another 25 minutes.
âJoeyyyy!â
âCan I have you for at least another hour or so? The restaurant doesn't even open until 4.â
âBut I have to prep!â
âBabe, please?â He asked as he started to give you puppy dog eyes.
âNo! Donât you dare give me that look!â You scolded him and at the same time he laid you on your back as he climbed on top of you.
âPlease?â He asked again as he gave you a light kiss on your lips and started placing a trail of kisses down your already bare body from the activities from the night before.
His fingers lightly brushed your folds and your hips bucked in response making a light chuckle escape from his lips.
âYou sure you don't want to stay? Your body is telling me otherwise.â He asked as he inserted two fingers and slowly began moving them in and out of you.
âBabyâŚâ
âHmm, one round or two? Knowing you, you're going to tell me one and then change your mind when you remember how good I make you feel.â
Joe didnât wait for you to answer him as he settled himself in between your legs and added his tongue to pleasure you without his fingers leaving your body.
In order to keep your legs spread and to also keep you from running from, he removed his fingers from you to keep a tight hold on both of your legs as his mouth continued to pleasure you.
âShiiit, oh my gosh.â Was the only sentence that you could form as both of your hands found a way into his hair.
Joe was the first boyfriend that you ever had that actually took the time to pleasure you and always made sure you had multiple orgasms before he even had one. He had always told you that his favorite thing was to eat you out because of the way you taste. If it was honestly left up to him, he would stay between your legs for hours.
âKeep still, baby.â Joe told you as he then began to suck on your clit.
âHow am I supposed to keep still when you do that!?â You exclaimed as he was still holding you in place. The vibration from his laugh was felt as he sucked harder.
âI'm⌠Oh FUCK!â You yelled and before you were able to get your entire sentence out, you squirted all over Joe's face as he continued sucking on your clit no matter how hard you tried to move away from him.
âNope, where do you think youâre going?â He asked as he continued to eat you out.
âGive me at least one more and I'll think about letting you move.â
âYou are such an ass!â You told him while playfully hitting his shoulder.
âHmm, is that what you tell your boyfriend as he's eating you out and making you feel good?â
âYes! Because he wonât let my legs go!â
âHmm, so you can fall off this high ass bed? I think not. Come on baby doll, one more. My pretty baby can give me one more.â
Keeping him talking gave you a little bit of a break, but that soon went back out the window as he dove back in and gave you his undivided attention once more.
You were starting to squirm and tears were threatening to leave your eyes as another orgasm washed over you. Joe finally stopped to come up for air, but before he did he lightly placed kisses on both of your thighs before climbing back up your body and leaning down to kiss you.
âI knew you could do it. Such a good girl.â
âAnd youâre still an ass for that.â
âIâll be that because later on in the day once you leave here and youâre thinking about me because I know it's going to happen. You'll think about me being between your thighs and then the first thing youâre going to do is tell me how wet that made you and how much you want me to make you cum over and over and over again.â He told you as he whispered against your lips before kissing them.
âAm I wrong?â He asked and you shook your head no as another smirk came across his face.
âBut for now, I can settle for this.â He told you as he lined up with your entrance and then suddenly stopped.
âBabe?â
âI forgot to go to the store so I donât have any more condoms. Shit, I forgot about that. But if youâre okay with it?â He asked, searching your eyes for approval.
âIâm okay with it. Gives me a chance to feel all of you.â You answered without skipping a beat.
âYou sure youâre ready for that?â He asked while smirking.
âIf I wasnât sure then I wouldnât have said yes to begin with.â
Nodding in approval, Joe slowly entered you until he bottomed out and you both moaned at the sensation. Feeling every bit of him was going to put you over the edge and the last thing on your mind was the fact that you would learn to regret it later.
â
Training camp was now coming to a close and pre-season games were due to start as you and Joe were on facetime. He had sent you a text earlier in the day saying that he had something he wanted to tell you later on when he got back home. The anticipation had been building all day and you were growing annoyed with him still keeping you in suspense.
âBabe, out with it already.â You told him as you were laying down with multiple pillows propped up underneath you. You hadnât felt well for the past week and a half and simply blamed it on the stomach bug that you knew that had been going around. You had left Kendall in charge of everything while you stayed home to rest with her periodically checking on you.
âSo, the final negotiation went well for my contract.â He started to say and you instantly smiled.
âOh, thatâs right because your rookie contract is over. I forgot that you had to do that this year. Do you feel that youâre happy with the decision that they came up with?â You asked as you took a sip of ginger ale.
âDefinitely happy with the decision. Once itâs signed, Itâll be the biggest contract for a quarterback as well as in the history of the NFL.â
âOh my gosh, thatâs so exciting and you definitely deserve it. I see all the hard work that youâve been putting in and it is definitely paying off. Iâm not feeling all that great, but I promise to make you a celebratory dinner so that we can celebrate properly. I am literally so proud of you!â
âThank you baby doll. Means a lot coming from you.â
âAlways going to be here to support you as long as you want me.â You told him as he smiled.
âI want you for the long run, you already know this and besides youâre the celebrity in my eyes anyway. Who would have thought a celebrity chef would go out with little old me who just happens to be a quarterback in the NFL in his spare time?â He asked as you softly laughed. Any intense movement would instantly make your stomach hurt or make you want to throw up.
âYou are too much sometimes and so incredibly dramatic.â You told him as you playfully rolled your eyes.
âYouâve literally known this since day one and it hasnât been a problem so why start now?â He asked as you saw him prop up his phone and move around in the kitchen.
âI feel so bad that I canât make you anything tonight.â You sadly said as Joe brushed you off, but a look of concern immediately spread across his face.
âDo you still not feel well? Babe, itâs been almost two weeks.â
âI know and I have a doctorâs appointment at the end of the week on Friday. Hopefully theyâll be able to tell me whatâs going on because I am so miserable right now.
âJust let me know what they say. Iâm going to actually sign the contract that day. So later that night, we can celebrate.â
âYes, thatâll be the perfect day to make dinner for you. Do you have any special requests?â You curiously asked and Joe answered you without a second thought.
âHmm, yeah. Iâll just have you for my dinner and my dessert.â
âJoeyyy, I meant actual food. You cannot just eat me out and think that is sufficient enough for you to survive.â
âSays who?â He asked as he took a drink out of the water bottle that he just opened.
âI have no idea what Iâm going to do with you.â You told him as you were smiling at him.
âBut on a serious note, do you need me to bring you anything? You definitely donât look like your normal self.â
âI promise that Iâm okay. I just have to ride it out and wait for it to pass, no big deal.â
âThe minute something changes, you call me. Promise?â
âI promise. The last thing I want is for you to come around me and end up getting sick yourself. Stay away until I give you the all clear on Friday.â
âAs hard as I know that will be, I have no choice so I guess Iâll listen to you. The last thing I need is to get sick right before the season starts.â
âExactly. Have to keep you as healthy as possible.â You told him as you glanced at the clock in your room to see that it was around eight at night.
âIâm going to try and get some sleep since I literally have been puking my guts out every morning for a week and a half straight.â You told Joe who gave you a sympathetic look.
âGo ahead and go to sleep. Just leave your phone on facetime.â
âSo you can be a creep and watch me sleep, Burrow?â
âI literally always watch you sleep when you stay with me so this is no different. You just arenât next to me. I always do it to make sure youâre okay.â
âYou are too sweet. One of the many things I love about you.â
âHmm, so Iâm melting that cold ass ice box of a heart you have? Is Y/N showing FEELINGS?!â He playfully teased you as you shook your head.
Joe knew from the beginning how independent you were and that you didnât need a man to depend on for anything. You can give your father credit for raising you that way. You could fix things around the house, change a tire, change the oil in your car and that wasnât even the tip of the iceberg. If there was something you wanted or needed, you would stop at nothing in order to make it happen. Even though you were infatuated with Joe ever since you laid eyes on him, you let him know upfront. One thing that Joe admired about you was your will to be independent. Although, he did want to spoil you from time to time.
âYouâre slowly melting it, I think youâve made it about 25%.â
âOnly 25%?!?! Seriously?! You have got to give me more credit than that.â
âHmm, maybe 35% because of how good you eat me out.â
âWHAT? That by itself should equal 1000%!â Joe exclaimed and you had gotten comfortable under the covers.
âWell you are melting it, so just be happy about that. You're the first one to do it in a very long time.â
âI am now close your eyes and go to sleep.â
âYou promise to stay on the phone and make sure Iâm okay?â You asked and a small smile spread across his face before nodding at you.
âI promise.â
Friday had finally come around and you were now on your way to Joeâs house to celebrate him signing his new contract. However, there was something now hanging over your head. You were uneasy because of the news that you had to share with him and honestly couldnât believe it yourself.
You stayed in the parking lot at the doctor's office for an extra 45 minutes before you even thought about moving your car.
It wasnât a simple stomach bug that you had been dealing with for two weeks, it was an entire human being growing inside of you and them trying to make you aware of their presence. The signs had all been there and it wasnât until your doctor wanted you to do a pregnancy test that the dots were finally starting to connect.
Your period was late and it had never been late in your entire life
Your boobs were sore
Just about everything made you nauseous and being a chef hadn't been working out for you for these past two weeks
You would throw up every morning like clockwork and then be fine for the rest of the day
The looks of shock and disbelief hadnât left your face since you had departed from your doctorâs appointment and your mind was racing a mile a minute. The relationship between you and Joe had barely gotten off of the ground and the last thing that you wanted to add to that was an entire child that you had no idea if he would even want.
But you had to be honest with him.
For the short time that you had known him, Joe was an amazing person that you saw being in your life for the long run and he was one person that you wouldnât mind fathering your kids because you knew that he cared about your well-being so you could imagine that he would care about theirs too.
You figured that you had to tell him when you got there because if something was off, he immediately knew and could read you like a book. The hardest thing at the current moment was for you not to break down crying.
Joe asked for you to make a simple dish that you made all the time, chicken and broccoli alfredo. Except for him, you would substitute regular noodles for protein pasta so that he would meet his goal for the day. You had started to feel a little bit better yesterday so you had gone to the store and dropped the ingredients off at Joeâs house so you didnât have to worry about bringing them with you after your doctorâs appointment.
Parking your car next to Joeâs Porsche, you placed your purse on your shoulder before getting out and making your way to the front door. Pulling out your key that he had given you, you opened it and quickly turned the knob before making your way inside.
Stepping across the threshold, it was quiet except for the television that you could hear in the living room and to no surprise it was playing Spongebob which you had to laugh at. That was one of the first things that you and Joe had bonded over.
As you walked further into the house and made your way into the living room, your boyfriend caught your eye as he was asleep on the couch and you assumed that he had been waiting for you. He looked peaceful and the last thing you wanted to do was disturb him so instead you placed a kiss on his forehead before setting your purse down and making your way into the kitchen to start on the dinner that he requested.
Not wanting to work in silence, you put one of your air pods in your ear and turned on your Kendrick Lamar playlist as you started to move around the kitchen. The decision to only put one in was to be able to hear Joe when he started to stir.
About twenty minutes later, dinner was already halfway done when you heard footsteps entering the kitchen. You turned around from the stove to be met with the sight of your sleepy boyfriend rubbing his eyes as he made his way over to you to place you in a hug and placed several kisses on both of your cheeks.
âHi, sleepy head. About time you woke up.â
âHow long have you been here?â He asked as he kissed you once more.
âProbably thirty minutes give or take. Luckily you chose something that was quick and easy. We probably have about fifteen more minutes. I just have to pour the sauce on the pasta and put the garlic bread in the oven.â
Joe nodded as he left his arms wrapped around you and you quickly squeezed him tighter, hoping that by the end of the night it wouldnât be the last time that you got to do so.
âHow did your appointment go?â He asked as he finally let you go so you could finish cooking.
âUm, not what I expected.â You quietly said as you had now turned around to face the stove leaving you facing away from him.
âBaby, is everything okay? You saying that has me worried.â Joe replied as he turned you around once more to face him.
âI⌠I just donât know how youâre going to take this.â
âTake what? Are you sick? Whatever it is, weâll get through it together, just tell me.â Joe told you as he held onto both of your hands.
Taking a deep breath, you blurted it out.
âIt wasnât a stomach bug like I thought, Iâm pregnant.â
As soon as those words left your mouth, Joeâs hands immediately detached from yours.
âWhat do you mean youâre pregnant?â
âWhen you have sex multiple times without a condom, these things tend to happen.â You said trying to make light of the situation, but Joe did not look amused in the slightest.
It was quiet for a few minutes and it was you who had to break the silence.
âJoey?â You said and he sighed before pinching the bridge of his nose and responding to you.
âSo, was this your plan all along? To trap me?â Joe asked you and the expression that appeared on your face was unreadable to him.
It took everything in you to not cuss him out right then and there.
âHmm funny. You're the one who didn't bother to wear a condom the last few times we had sex. And I know that you cannot be serious.â Was your response as you crossed your arms over your chest.
âWhat's also funny is that you said you were okay with it. I obviously wouldn't have done it if you weren't. So it just so happens I signed the biggest contract for a quarterback in NFL history and suddenly my girlfriend of four months is now pregnant? And I am being fucking serious.â
âAre you calling me a gold digger? Because that's what it sounds like.â
âYou said it, not me.â He told you as he held his hands up in defense.
âWhat do I need your money for when I have my own? You act like I donât even have a career. Did you forget that I own my own restaurant?â
âYou obviously don't have nearly as much as I do.â
âYou are literally unbelievable right now. You're acting as if this is entirely my fault when it was both of us.â You exclaimed and he continued to look at you with a straight face.
âI'm at the height of my career and the last thing I need is a kid with someone I barely even know.â
Your heart dropped hearing how he talked about you, but especially that last statement and did your best to keep a straight face when in reality hearing something like that would probably make tears fall from your eyes.
The thought that he would be surprised, but also supportive of you had now gone out of the window.
âWell it's a good thing that this relationship is no more isn't it? So you won't have to worry about it anymore.â You said to Joe as you made your way to the living room and took the key to his house off of your keychain and handed it to him while you threw your purse over your shoulder.
He watched as you walked away from him and started to open the front door when you turned back to look at him.
âRemember everything that you said to me because I know it's going to come back to haunt you and you'll end up regretting it. And by the type of person I am, you know that I do not forgive easily or at all.â
âI highly doubt that.â
Hearing his reply, you had to laugh to yourself because at this point in time you knew that he would come crawling back to you sooner or later. His conscience would eat away at him and he would start to feel guilty. Even if you had only known him for a matter of months, deep down he was a good person that always tried to do right by others although he wasnât displaying that now towards you.
âJust remember I told you so. I never needed you before and I sure as hell won't need you in the future. The difference was that I wanted you simply for you and not your money. Good luck finding someone who valued you as much as I did.â
Slamming the door behind you, once you got into your car and put on your seatbelt, you picked up your phone that you had thrown on the passenger seat and proceeded to block Joe's number.
If he didn't want to be in your child's life, the last thing you were about to do was beg. You made it up in your mind that the two of you were going to be fine with or without him.
The regret of it all was going to hit him like a ton of bricks.
â
A month and a half had gone by and you put all of your focus and energy into the restaurant and spent time reading pregnancy books that were highly recommended especially for first time mothers.
Reading what was currently going on in your body had you scared shitless, but you were determined to make it through this one step at a time. Only person that you could depend on now was yourself.
After blocking Joeâs number, you had also blocked him on all of your social media accounts wanting absolutely nothing to do with him. You went as far as also blocking JaâMarr, Tee, Sam, and Andrei who would frequently come with him to your restaurant wanting no ties to anyone associated with him.
Plenty of people at the restaurant asked where Joe was, but you couldn't bring yourself to tell them that you had unfortunately broken up, especially one of your favorite hostesses Blanca. She had been obsessed with you and Joe and thought that the two of you looked good together.
I mean from your perspective, the two of you definitely weren't together anymore although when you had originally said it, Joe didn't even bother to react. Because you hadn't told them anything, they always kept his table open unless you told them otherwise. One of these days you were going to get around to banning him completely even if that did seem a little extreme. But on the other hand, he had hurt you and that particular reason was enough.
It was getting harder to hide the bump that was now as obvious as it gets and getting a larger size in a chef uniform every single time your belly grew was getting annoying. So you opted to actually wear sweatshirts as long as it wasn't too hot in the kitchen. If it did get hot, you made sure to have an extra large shirt underneath which left people a little confused but attributed it to simply being your comfort level.
The morning sickness was at an all time high today even though you were well past the time frame of still having it. You made a note in the back of your mind to say something at your next doctorâs appointment. Because of this, the ultimate decision was made for you to stay home, but promised your dad nonetheless that you would make dinner for him since he had gotten a promotion at his job. You wanted to celebrate him properly since you knew how hard he had worked for it.
The food was almost done as you heard the doorbell ring and smiled to yourself because you were excited to be able to finally catch up with your dad. Once you wiped your hands on your apron and walked to the front door to open it, you were caught off guard with your dad placing you in a bone crushing hug with you tightly hugging him back. You knew you had to tell him before the night was over. Once again you were wearing a baggy shirt that hid how big your belly had actually gotten.
âDaddy!â You exclaimed as your eyes met his.
âHey, pumpkin!â
Once he placed you back on the ground, you moved to the side in order for him to be able to get through the front door. Once you did he followed you into the kitchen and took a seat at the island.
âSo, when are you moving into your corner office?â You asked as you poured a glass of red wine and placed it in front of him. It was your favorite brand and it was hard for you to not also pour a glass for yourself.
âOn Monday but I already moved a few things over. It's amazing how much you can accumulate over the years.â Your dad answered, but you lowkey knew that he was a hoarder. But being a single dad, you couldn't blame him. Everything little thing counted.
âI am literally so proud of you but it sounds like you could stand to do a little deep cleaning.â Every time you went over to his house, you made it a mission to throw something away without him noticing. So far you had been successful, doing it since you had turned eighteen.
âI never know when I might need something from my stash so I have to be prepared. I told you that hard work pays off but you're definitely no stranger to that. How's the restaurant doing?â He asked as he took a sip.
âReally good. I'm working on debuting our updated Fall menu in the next week or so. The main one already came out.â
âPlease tell me you're bringing back the cinnamon apple spice rolls.â
âOf course I am since I know that they're your favorite.â
It took a minute, but your dad caught onto you not drinking any wine and he knew that particular brand that you had given him was your favorite making him look at you in confusion.
âYou're not going to get a glass for yourself? Oh, how's Joe by the way? I feel like it's been a minute since you mentioned him. Let me know which Sunday you're free so we can go to a game together.â
âNo wine for me tonight and I actually wouldn't know how he's doing because we aren't together anymore.â
âWhat? Since when? I thought you really liked him. And that's saying something because you hardly like anyone.â
Taking a deep sigh, you turned back to your dad and he could tell by the expression on your face that something was wrong.
âI'm pregnant and Joe wants nothing to do with the baby. After I told him we got into an argument about it, I left his house and immediately blocked him.â
Your father looked at you in disbelief before any words left his mouth.
âWhat? How couldâŚ?â
âHe thought it was really interesting how I turned up pregnant when he had just signed his new contract. We got into an argument, he called me a gold digger and I left. Blocked his number as soon as I slammed the door behind me. Gave him back his house key too.â
âPumpkinâŚâ
âDad, no. I'm doing this by myself and we're going to be fine.â You told him since you knew the first thing he was going to do was worry himself over it.
âI didn't want this for you. Single parent life. I was hoping that you would get married to someone who loved you for you before you had children.â
âIt didn't quite work out that way, but like I said it'll be fine.â
âI need to talk to him so he can get some sense knocked into him. You mean to tell me he had no problem not wearing a condom, but runs for the hills the second you come up pregnant? Really?â You knew your dad was going to protect you at all costs and knew that you had to keep him as far away from Joe as possible.
âNo you don't. I don't need him and my baby doesn't need him either. He made his choice and he has to be the one to deal with it.â
âWhatever decision you make, I'm going to support you 100%.â
âThanks, dad. I appreciate you saying that.â You told him as you set his plate in front of him.
âIt's been us against the world since you were born so this isnât any different. That baby will grow up in a household full of love and won't even notice that someone is missing from their life because they aren't going to want for anything.â
Your mom had literally snuck out of the hospital without being discharged hours after you were born leaving you in a bassinet in her designated hospital room where she was supposed to be recovering. She had left while your dad had stepped out to get her some food since she didn't like the food that they served in the hospital.
No one had seen her since.
Over the years you noticed that your dad wouldn't really talk about her so the most that you knew was her name. There was never a desire to find her since you had it in your mind that she didn't want anything to do with you and those feelings are reciprocated right back towards her.
When your dad had gotten back to the hospital, everyone was frantic and she had never given any inkling that she didn't want to keep you so he was just as confused as everyone else. From that moment forward, your dad made it up in his mind to give you the best life possible and to keep her away from you.
âYou taught me not to depend on a man for anything. Or anyone else for that matter.â
âPumpkin, this situation is a little differentâŚâ
âNo, it isn't. If he doesn't want to take care of his responsibilities then so be it.â
Hearing your dad sigh as he stabbed his fork into his mashed potatoes, he nodded his head at you.
âSo, have we decided on any names yet?â
âNot yet, but I have a very strong feeling that the baby is a girl.â
â
It was a dreary day in Cincinnati when practice had come to a close for the Bengals and Joe was walking back towards the locker room in order to get ready for his presser when JaâMarr stopped him and pulled him to the side.
âBro, what is wrong with you? And donât you dare stand up here and lie to me. I know when something is off with my best friend.â
JaâMarr had noticed despite Joeâs efforts to remain his nonchalant self, something was eating away at him. He noticed in the pre-season and just assumed he was trying to get back in the groove of things, but as time went on he felt that something was off and wasnât getting better.
��Nothing is wrong.â
âBullshit and Iâm about to call your mom if you keep lying. Iâm due for a bowl of snickers salad anyway.â
Taking a deep sigh, Joe threw his helmet down on the ground before responding which left JaâMarr a little confused.
âUh?â
âY/N is pregnant.â
âOh! Congratulations. Is that why youâre so damn stressed? I mean I get it. When my girlfriend told me she was pregnant, I think I went into shock for a few days.â He told him as he picked up his helmet for him and he tried to continue walking before Joe pulled him back.
âThatâs not all.â
âOhâŚâ
âShe told me this about two months ago when she had been feeling sick for about two weeks and I told her to make a doctorâs appointment. It just so happened to be on the day that I signed my new contract when she told me about her being pregnant. In not so many words, I dismissed her and dismissed the thought of her being pregnant seeing as we had only been together for four months at the time.â
âBut, you apologized though, right? Iâm trying to go to her restaurant on Sunday after we win. Been a while since Iâve seen her. I get that you were caught off guard by it but I mean the way that you were talking, yall were fucking morning, noon, and night. So, are you surprised?â
âDidnât apologize, instead I accused her of being a gold digger and she broke up with me and for good reason. I said some not so nice things to her when she obviously came to me scared shitless.â
âDamn, okay. We can fix this. Just have to apologize to her andâŚâ
âKnowing how she is, she is not going to let me anywhere near her or the baby because of how I reacted. Like, she is a person who protects herself and her well-being, as soon as she feels something is off, she cuts you out of her life without a second thought. Her boyfriends have called her cold hearted in the past, but fail to mention how they failed her as boyfriends eventually making her the way she is.â
âOkay, back up for a second. Do you want to be in this babyâs life or not? Because the Joe I know would.â
âI do now that I sat down and thought about everything that went down. I feel so bad about how I talked to her, but when I tried to call her like a day later, I found out she blocked me. But also went as far as blocking me on every social media page she has. I literally cannot find a trace of her and itâs like she doesnât even exist.â
âUh? She has an entire restaurant that you can go to? And a house? Go there and talk to her.â
âFor her to kick me out? I can imagine that sheâs told her best friend Kendall by now as well as her dad who I know probably wants to kill me. Heâs a season ticket holder so I know that itâs only a matter of time before he shows up to a game and beats my face in.â
âOkay let me see real quick.â JaâMarr said as they had finally made it back into the locker room. He went and unlocked his phone and noticed that you had done the same thing as you had done to Joe.
âShitâŚâ
âWhat?â
âShe blocked me too. I was going to see if I could convince her to talk to you, but now that plan has gone out the window.â He said to Joe as he scratched the top of his head.
âI just need to make this right somehow, someway.â
âLike I said, go to the restaurant and talk to her. The worst thing that she could possibly do is say she doesnât want to talk to you. If she does, weâll figure out next steps from there so you can be in this babyâs life. I got your back, bro despite how fucking stupid you reacted to this entire situation. She didnât get pregnant by herself. Weâre going to fix this. Y/N cares about you too much.â
âI think the ship of her wanting anything to do with me sailed away a long time ago.â
After his presser and the day had finally come to a close, Joe got into his car and was on his way home until he started to go in the other direction. He figured that his parents would also be able to help him through this.
To Athens it was.
Majority of the drive was done in silence in order for him to be able to think about what his next steps would be regarding you and the baby. He definitely didnât want to be seen as a deadbeat father. He wanted a chance for his child to grow up with both parents even though they probably wonât be under the same roof. Walking away would weigh so heavily on his conscience and he knew for a fact that he couldnât go about his daily life not knowing if you as well as his child was okay.
By the time he reached his parents house, it was around 6 in the evening and saw that both of their cars were in the driveway which he was happy about. That way he wouldnât have to re[eat the entire story to both of them separately.
Once he reached the front door and opened it, he walked in to see both of his parents sitting in the living room and they looked up at him surprised.
âDidn't think weâd be seeing you until Sunday.â His dad said as he got up to greet him, while Robin was busy analyzing him. She could tell that something was off.
âYou would not drive all the way here unless something is wrong so start talking.â She told him after she hugged him.
âHmm, you didn't waste any time. Who said something had to be wrong?â
âBecause we know our child like the back of our hand.â Jim responded as Robin nodded.
âCan I at least eat something first before I get interrogated?â Joe asked and a small smirk appeared on Robin's face.
âWe can do it at the same time and lucky for you, the food should be done.â She said to him as she made her way into the kitchen with Joe and Jim walking behind her.
Once everyone was settled at the table, a thought concerning you popped into Robin's head and she made it a point to ask about you.
âHowâs Y/N? You haven't mentioned her lately. When are we going to meet her? I was hoping she would be there on Sunday.â
That was when Joe put his fork down on the table.
âI⌠We broke up at least I think we did and it's entirely my fault and I don't think she's going to forgive me.â
âI'm sure you two can talk it out. You're adults and from the way you talk about her we know she's important to you.â Jim told him and Robin quickly agreed.
It was quiet for a few seconds before Joe laid everything out in one breath.
âShe told me she was pregnant the day I signed my contract and I accused her of being a gold digger and we got into an argument and she definitely said that I would regret the way that I had talked to her so here we are.â Joe muttered and both of his parents looked at him in disbelief.
âJosephâŚ.â
âI know how bad it sounds and I was an asshole to her.â
âWhen's the last time you talked to her?â
âThat was it and I haven't talked to her since. She's blocked me on everything and I don't know what to do. When I say how everything went down out loud, I feel bad all over again.â
Jim and Robin sat in silence as they had a conversation with one another only with their eyes.
âWe raised you better than this.â
âI know.â
âIf you had your suspicions about it, a DNA test could have been performed when they were born. Calling her a gold digger wasn't needed.â
âI know, I already feel bad enough. But I highly doubt that she is going to forgive me.â
âWell from the way you talked to her, do you think that you deserve forgiveness?â Jim responded as Joe took a deep breath and sighed.
âProbably not if I'm being honest.â He quietly said.
âI don't know what you need to do but you better make this right so I can see my future grand baby.â Robin told him as she still had a look of disbelief on her face and pointed her fork in his direction.
â
After the game on Sunday as well as the press conference, Joe was once again sitting in his car and debating if he should go to the restaurant and talk to you. Since it was a night game that was played, he knew that the restaurant wouldnât close until 2 am and the closer it got to closing time, the less busy you would be.
His mother had been asking him every day since he confessed what he did if he had talked to you and knew for a fact that she was growing extremely annoyed with him since the answer was always no.
By the time he had reached the restaurant, it was approaching one in the morning. He parked and made his way inside only to be greeted by his favorite hostess Blanca. What caught him off guard was her giving him death glares. Blanca had only overheard what he had done from overhearing Kendall and you talking, but it was enough for her to start to not like him.
âBlanca.â
âWeâre closed, Burrow.â
âUh? You donât close for another hourâŚ.â He trailed off and he looked down at his watch in confusion making sure that he had the time right.
âWhat do you want?â She asked him as she took out a nail file and began to work on her left hand.
âTo see Y/N, I need to talk to her.â
âFunny seeing you here now seeing as you havenât been around for about two months. Word on the street is that the two of you broke up and it was your fault and seeing as Y/N employs me and cannot do any wrong in my eyes, whatever I heard that you did, you definitely did it.â She quietly said as she held up her hand to examine it.
âBlancaâŚ. I really need to talk to her and Iâm not explaining myself to you. Itâs between me and her, not me, her, and you.â Joe explained, but all she did was roll her eyes.
âSeeing as you have to get past me in order to get to your table, that she should have removed your name from by the way, whatâs in it for me? Y/N is an amazing person and you hurt her.â
âAnd Iâm trying to make this right and Iâm going to need you to move in order for me to be able to do that.â He told her as he pulled out two crisp 100 dollar bills and she analyzed them for a second.
âDonât act like you donât want it. This is whatâs in it for you if you let me see her.â He said as he made a move to grab it, but he quickly moved his hand until she agreed.
âY/N is going to kill me, but fine. Come on.â She told him as she led him to his table.
Once he reached the balcony, it was a clear crisp night where you could see all of the stars in the sky. It was just the right temperature which he was thankful for because the last thing he wanted to happen was for other people to overhear their conversation if he had been forced to stay inside. When he sat down at the table, Blanca made a motion for Joe to give her the money and she quickly snatched it out of his hand.
âIâm always loyal to Y/N, but I can be bribed once in a while. Did you want to order something? I can send a waitress over?â
âNo, thatâs okay. I just want to see Y/N.â
âWait until you see her belly. Anyway, there arenât a lot of guests at the moment so she should be able to step away. Iâll go and get her for you.â She said as she attempted to give him a weak smile making note of how defeated he looked by the entire situation.
As soon as you walked out onto the balcony, the last person that you ever expected to see was sitting at the table that was the furthest from the doorway and tried to turn around to go back into the restaurant, but he saw you and quickly ran over to you and grabbed your hand which you quickly snatched away from him.
âWait, Y/N. I just want to talk. Just⌠please.â
âIâm busy.â
âBut the restaurant is about to close, I figured that this would be the best time for me to come and try to talk to you.â
âRemind me when this conversation is over to ban you from my restaurant. Actually let's just include everyone who works for the Cincinnati Bengals organization past and present.â
âI⌠deserve that.â He told you as he glanced down at your protruding belly. Blanca wasnât lying.
âThat isn't even the tip of the iceberg of what you deserve.â
âLook you blocked me on literally everything and you not only blocked me but my friends too so this was the only way I knew I would be able to talk to you.â
âBut why? Why do you want to talk to me? I'm a gold digger who was only with you for your money, remember?â
âI said some not so nice things to you and I need to apologize for them.â
âI don't want your fucking apology. I heard you loud and clear the first time and you obviously meant what you said so stand by it.â
âY/N, please. I want to make this right so I can raise this child with you. I was an asshole and I knew the risks of you possibly getting pregnant, but I didnât care which was not right at all. Just meet me halfway here.â
âDidn't I tell you that you were going to regret how you spoke to me? And then you said that you highly doubted it?â
âYes and I ended up regretting it just like you said. And I told my parents about you.â
âFor what? So they can harass me too? Tell me that I trapped their son? Because you know the apple doesnât fall far from the tree.â
âNo! They're the ones who encouraged me to try to talk to you right along with JaâMarr. They want to meet you. My mom actually lowkey threatened me if Iâm being honest.â
âI don't think you actually realize how bad you hurt me. It has been years since I was that vulnerable with someone and you just let me know that you didn't care about me at all in a matter of five minutes when I originally told you.â
âI do care about you!â
âReally? Because I recall you saying something about having a baby by someone you hardly even knew. Acting as if I was a complete stranger to you and the four months that we actually did spend together didnât matter.â
âOkay, Y/N, I'm trying to move forward but how can we do that if all you're doing is reminding me of what I said? I know I fucked up, but I'm trying to make this right.â Joe said as he was trying to keep his voice down seeing as the entrance door to the inside of the restaurant was still open.
âOr is this because you think I'll expose you to the media and say that you're a deadbeat dad? Beloved Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is amazing on the field and always takes the opportunity to talk to his fans. However, ignores the child that he made with his ex-girlfriend off the field.â You questioned him as you glanced down at your watch to see what time it was.
âIt seems like I can't win with you no matter what I try to say or do.â
âKeep in mind that we're having this conversation because of something you did. I was simply going to let you keep living your life and not bother you. I wasnât even going to bother you for child support. But now, look who came crawling back just like I said he would?â
You were throwing punches left and right towards Joe, making his head spin. He knew before coming here that it probably wasnât going to be the smoothest conversation, but he did not expect anything like this.
âCan we please just call a truce? I don't want to fight with you and I can imagine that it isn't good for the baby either. I will do absolutely anything that you need me to do to be able to support you through the rest of this pregnancy. You have my word on that. Have you found out if it's a boy or a girl?â He asked and you sighed as you rolled your eyes knowing that he was right.
Being stubborn and hard headed would only be able to get you so far in life. Deep down, you didnât want to have to do this alone, but since that was the situation you were presented with, you were simply going to grin and bear it.
I was quiet for a little while until you moved to sit down at Joe's table with him sitting across from you not wanting to push his luck.
âNo, Kendall is the only one that knows. And I guess youâre right about calling a truce.â You told him as you finally gave in because this conversation was going absolutely nowhere.
âI really am sorry about what I said and how I acted towards you.â
âIt happened and we canât do anything about it now. I also hope you know that I still stand by this relationship being over. Just because I forgave one thing you did doesn't mean that things can go back to being the way they were.â
âI get it and I have to respect your decision.â
âMaybe in the future, but not now.â You quietly said while Joe nodded.
Since your back was facing the doorway, Joe looked up and noticed your best friend Kendall who was a chef as well peeking her head out to look at both of you. He assumed that Blanca had told her that he was here and sent her up to be a mediator if need be.
âYou two good up here?â She asked as she made her way to the table. She also sent a death glare to Joe, but that quickly went out the window once she heard your voice.
âWeâre fine, no need to worry.â
âI actually had a surprise for you and now because Joe is here, itâll make it that much better. Let me go get it.â
âWhat in the world are you up to?â You asked her as she shook her head indicating that she wasnât telling you and made her way back inside of the restaurant.
Once she returned, there was a white cake with pink and blue sprinkles being held by her and she placed it down in the middle of the table between both of you.
âKendall, whatâs this? My birthday is not for another two months and you know that?â You asked and she smiled back at you.
âWell, I knew you wanted something kind of lowkey for a gender reveal and my plan was to do it after we had closed the restaurant for the night. Since you literally text me everyday to tell you what the gender is even though after you send it, you quickly backtrack and say that you donât want to know anymore. So, the cake will let you know if itâs a boy or a girl when you cut into it.â She explained as she handed you the knife.
âI donât know if I want to know yet!â You exclaimed and Kendall immediately shook her head.
âNo, absolutely not. We are not doing this for the remainder of your pregnancy. Cut it and cut it now. You are not going to be bothering me every day about this. Besides, baby daddy wants to know, donât you Joe?â
âUm, yeah.â He quietly answered but also not trying to cause any more tension.
You rolled your eyes as you placed the knife onto the cake and gently pushed down. Once you separated the slice from the remainder of the cake, both your eyes went wide along with Joeâs as all three of you were now staring at a pink cake.
âIâll finally be able to be the mother that someone deserves.â
One year later
You opened the door to your daughterâs room and peeked into her crib to see her wide awake and looking at you.
âGood morning, Amora. Are you excited to see daddy play in the first home game of the season? We get to sit up in the big suite with grandma and both of our grandpas and you have the cutest outfit that he bought you to wear for today.â You asked as you picked her up and cradled her to your chest.
All you got was a series of spit bubbles and a smile in response.
âIâm going to take that as a yes seeing as soon as I said daddy I got a smile.â You told her as you tickled her small belly now making a laugh escape.
You were caught off guard as you felt arms wrap around you from behind and Joe leaned to the side to be able to kiss your cheek.
âGood morning baby doll.â He told you as he held out his hands to take Amora from you.
âI didnât even hear you come in. How long have you been awake?â You asked and he shrugged.
âNot long, maybe fifteen minutes.â He replied and you nodded as you went to get her outfit out of her dresser and begin to pack her diaper bag.
âAnd good morning my princess.â He told her as he kissed both of her cheeks.
âYou get prettier every day just like your mom.â
âStop trying to butter me up, Burrow.â You told him while laughing and getting more diapers from the bottom drawer of her changing table.
âNot buttering you up, just telling the truth. I mean look how gorgeous this kid is. We should make another one.â He replied as he began to play with her.
Hearing this, you stopped what you were doing and looked at him in disbelief as Joe smirked.
âShe is literally only four months old, slow your roll.â Your body was nowhere near healed from giving birth to Amora and the thought of having another one so soon was the furthest from your mind.
âNothing wrong with planning for the future.â He replied as he was now holding Amora with one arm and turned your face with his other hand to face him as he leaned down to kiss you.
âFine, but I have terms and conditions.â
âName them and itâll be done.â
âA ring needs to be on my finger before I even consider having another one.â You told him and a smile instantly broke out across his face as he leaned down to kiss you once more.
âIs that it? But, whoâs to say that I donât already have it?â

âOh, let there be hotel complaintsâ | Chan x you
warnings: nsfw, D/s dynamics, face and pussy slapping, overstimulation, mention of safewords, Daddy kink.
This is just Chan brain rot and my mind gently suggested me the image of first time inexperienced Dom Chan who wants to try some BDSM but heâs too scared to hurt you so he decides heâa going to try on himself all that heâs gonna do to youâŚ
Title from Dinner & Diatribes by Hozier
Chan has had plenty of vanilla sex, but then you introduced him to BDSM, and especially the concepts of Doms and Subs, and something switched in him. He started reading online forums and blogs. And when the topic arose again, he clearly told you heâs interested, but he wonât do it yet. Because the thing is: despite how hard even just reading stuff about it makes him, he has no experience, and he wonât risk hurting you.
So, he does what any good Dom should do in his eyes, he tries things on himself.
One day you turn home to find his face red and a bit swollen, but when you ask about it, he just distracts you with filthy kisses. What you donât know is that he slapped and slapped and slapped himself until he deemed he had found the right strength to use.
Another day he disappears for the whole afternoon and, when you see him in the living room, he looks flushed and a little exhausted, but giddy. Just like Changbin when he maxes out at the gym and heâs incredibly tired but proud of himself. What you donât know is that he spent the afternoon edging himself with a vibrator on his shaft and his tip and, after hours of denying himself, he came and proceeded to overstimulate himself, because itâs only logical to pair up the two experiences, right?
What you noticed though, is that thereâs a change in him. Heâs more assertive with you on some days, makes sure you eat and doesnât let you go to sleep if you havenât removed your makeup. Pushes you to sleep more when he knows you have had a bad day at work, and every time you comply and thank him for taking care of you, he kisses a little filthier, holds you a little firmer.
Itâs months later when he asks if you can try something kinkier. Youâre excited and happy and you start to mentally prepare yourself to be a good teacher without forgetting this is about pleasure. But then Chan shows you exactly how deep the still water runs deep.
âYouâre gonna sit thereâ he says and heâs so commanding yet sexy you melt instantly. âAnd weâre gonna have a quick talk. Nothing too extreme is going to happen today, but I need to establish some rulesâ. You nod in response, and he looks at you with his arms crossed and an eyebrow raised. âYouâre gonna use your pretty words, baby girl.â Thatâs it. Not a suggestion, not an option, a rule. Fuck, you knew he would be good at this.
âI understand.â
Heâs quick with the rules: you must verbally answer, youâre gonna use the traffic light system for now, you must use the safe word if you need to, and the moment you think somethingâs wrong heâs gonna stop. You also must ask for what you want, not just take it.
Not too long later youâre on the bed, shirt previously discarded and clad only in your panties. And Chan is completely dressed, hovering over you. Heâs been kissing you deeply and touching you just enough to make you want so much more. Youâre embarrassingly wet and youâre sure youâll have to throw away your panties. Heâs holding your crossed arms at the wrists and, in doing so, heâs holding you down. You try to buck and raise your ass to relieve some of the dull aching youâre feeling in your core. âCâmon Channie, touch me.â
âBut I am touching youâŚâ he replies with a smirk on his lips. His free hand caresses your face, and he tests the gives of your lower lip with his thumb. When you suck on it, though, he takes it away and shakes his head. âWhat did I say?â You are lost, what happened? Did he say something?
âYouâre just a cockhungry whore, uh? You canât even wait for me to give you something, youâre so greedy you just want to take and take.â
Oh.
The realization in your face makes Chan smile. âThere it is⌠tell me what you did wrong, and I might consider going easy on you.â
âI didnât ask to suck your thumb-â he knows thereâs something you want to add, he knows about your Daddy kink. And it turns him so fucking on, but heâs not gonna press about it. He considers your words and considers just letting it slide, but thereâs flames licking at his insides.
âToo bad you didnât ask, uh?â
Sudden, sharp pain irradiates on your left cheek and itâs less the pain and more the surprise that makes you gasp and, less than a second later, moan. Chan wants to apologize, years of conditioning making him feel guilty and mean and abusive, but he canât deny what he feels.
He grabs your face, fingers splayed where he slapped mere seconds ago, wet thumb digging into the opposite cheek and kisses you messy and filthy, sucking your tongue in his mouth. Chan removes the last piece of clothing you have on and sits on his knees, with his thighs slightly spread apart. He holds your legs open with firm hands, one on your calf and the other clamped around your knee. Heâs just⌠staring at your pussy. You try to squirm away and close your legs, but his eyes are suddenly on you. Thereâs a warning in his face that accompanies a displeased sound. âSorry, sorry, Iâm sorryâ you blurt out trying to repair something before you do too much damage. You can feel wetness dripping down your folds, and Chan can too. âYouâre so wet. Fuck, you love being on display for meâŚâ He has never felt this. Thereâs a power rush, a shiver starting from his spine and moving towards opposite endings: towards his brain, making him lose words and making him want to act up, want to deliciously destroy you, making a mess of you and then put you back together; and on the other ending, traveling south towards his cock and balls. Heâs been ready to cum the moment he sat you down and you agreed to do this.
âLove, are you just going to stare at me?â You ask when you grow too impatient to keep sitting still, a bit embarrassed too by his too focused staring. He shakes his head, and there is a quiet chuckle that can be heard in the room. His lips raise in a slow smirk, like heâs just been made aware of a secret, and you didnât. And maybe he did.
Chan made plans for tonight. Plural. You told him you like not knowing everything in advance, so he planned different plans based on your responses to his actions. It was harder than organizing recording sessions. But since he saw your reactions earlier, he decides to stick to a precise plan. So, he acts in it.
Quickly and hard he delivers a slap on your inner thigh, the pain is a delicious sensation, hot and cold at the same time. A moment later the skin reddens to show Chanâs handprint and if possible, his cock gets ever harder. It twitches a little from where itâs hidden, head flushed and red, slowly but constantly leaking precum, forming a wet stain on his slacks .
âFuck Chan!â You cry to his direction, eyes closed shut and brows knit in pleasure. You can feel heat where he hit you, and you want to press your fingers into it, wanting to feel the warmth and the pain and the pleasure. The moment you are ready to ask him for something, he delivers another slap in the same place. This time, though, Chan doesnât let you breathe it out, doesnât let you take your time to recover from it, no. He rakes his nails on your hot skin, watches as the skin quickly goes from red to white and to an even redder red where he scratched you. Digs his digits into your skin and revels in your gasps, feeling hot and ready to lose control, if a wind would blow in the room, he would cum in an instant. Heâs ready for your next moan, your next gasp, but youâre quiet and your legs are trembling, and heâs scared heâs gone too far. Heâs on the verge of apologizing, carrying you to the bathroom for a warm bath and cuddles and more apologies when he realizes he read you wrong. He didnât give you too much, he gave you exactly what you needed, because -unbelievably so, for him- youâre coming. Clit untouched and your sopping hole twitching and throbbing around nothing, but youâre clearly coming. This is a different one, though. Youâve never been quiet while having an orgasm, but watching you with more attention calms him down, you look fine. He kisses you from your thigh to your cheekbone, stopping to nibble at your nipples, tongue lapping at your skin and sucking quick marks on you. âMy pretty slutâ a kiss on the nose, âyouâre so greedyâ a kiss on the right cheek, âyour little pussy came untouchedâ a kiss on the forehead, ânow I must give it some attentionâ a kiss on your chin. âTell me your color?â He adds, tone sweeter and a hand caressing your face like youâre made of the finest glass.
âGreenâ. A smile appears on his face and he manhandles you to straddle his slacks covered thigh. Your wetness is seeping through the fabric, you squirm and he can see youâre embarrassed. âI told you I was gonna give it some attention. I want my baby girl to feel good.â He grabs you by your hips and forces you to move and grind your pussy on the fabric of his slacks. One of his hands sneaks into your hair and he pulls, stopping you from hiding into his neck. âNo hiding. And stop hiding all your pretty sounds from me.â
The pleasure mixed with the overstimulation are overwhelming, and Chanâs new role is playing a big role in the moment and your arousal. His fingers are probably going to leave bruises in your skin, and you canât wait to stand in front of a mirror to see them. Chan hands guide you back and forth and soon youâre clenching around nothing, âmâclose Channieâ, too desperate to control your movements.
âItâs okay, my baby. Just ask for it.â His hard cock is begging to be touched, still in the confines of his underwear and trousers. Yet, he has never been this hard and close to coming untouched. Your moans, the redness on your cheeks, the sweat matting your hair to your forehead and your incessant moans and cries of pleasure are making him lose his mind.
âPlease Channie, can I cum?â You pant. âLet me cum, Daddy.â The last word is whispered, muffled into his shoulder but he hears it anyway. And he understands why you like it, the name giving him power, giving him a specific role, giving him the chance to give you exactly what you need.
âThen cum for Daddy.â
He watches you as cum, hands guiding your movements and his muscles flexing to give you as much pleasure as he can. He loves you like this, unabashed and free, vulnerable just for him.
But having you moaning and screaming his name is not enough. He doesnât stop when you try to take a moment to collect yourself, he fixes his hold on your hips and forces your movements again. Back and forth, back and forth, again and again and it doesnât matter how loud you whine, it doesn't matter your overstimulation, what matters now is making you cum another time. Anytime he pushes you towards him, he also pushes you down, setting an unforgiving pace that is torture on your sensitive clit. Heâs relentless, but after just a few minutes youâre both rewarded with your legs clamping down on his thigh as you cum again. Unbelievably so, watching your second orgasm triggers his own orgasm and he moans your name loudly. He kisses you, messy and hungry, lips demanding and tongue insistent, claiming even your breath.
Youâre gripping his shirt so hard, your fingers hurt. He delicately lays you down onto the bed and kisses you softly. As soon as his breathing comes back to normal, his worries come back too.
âAre you okay, baby? Did I hurt you? Was it too much? What do yo-â you interrupt him with silly, quick kisses, trying to diminish his worries.
âI am more than okay.â A kiss. âI feel perfect.â A kiss. âYou were perfect.â A kiss. âYouâre always perfect, love.â A kiss. âI love you.â A kiss.
You kiss some more and he insists on showering together so he can take care of you and make sure you drink water and eat some fruit and chocolate. He tells you all about trying on himself what he did to you, and youâve never loved him more.

Aegon, second of his name and a proud boy of almost four years, stared with an expression of disgust and disinterest at the small newborn babe in his half-sister's arms, who was still lying exhausted in bed, sweat dripping down her forehead and neck, while you screamed so loud as if there was no tomorrow.
Next to him stood his father the king, staring down at his firstborn daughter with an expression of pride - an expression he had never seen in his eyes whenever he looked at him. His own mother was not here with them and he wondered why. Where was she? Did she not want to meet you?
"Would you like to hold her?" Rhaenyra asked the king exhaustedly, holding out her newborn to him. It was a little girl who was actually only due in a few weeks, but you had apparently decided to come earlier than, for example, your brother or Aegon with his own mother, which is why you were smaller and more delicate. At least that's how the midwives explained your delicacy.
"I would feel honored," said King Viserys the Peaceful with a little laugh and took you in his arms while he gently rocked you back and forth.
Aegon had actually just wanted to play, but he had been sitting in the library with his Septa earlier, who chatted far too much and whom he could hardly listen to properly, which is why it was just right when a guard asked him if he wanted to meet his niece, who had just left the womb at that time. Of course he had ran off immediately, but you were somehow... ugly. Your loud crying and screaming hurt his ears and he had to hold back from making a face.
Suddenly his father leaned down a little so that he could get a better look at you, whereupon his half-sister sat up a little in bed as if she didn't trust him, even though he was only a little boy and didn't know what kind of burden he would one day carry on his shoulders. The king's firstborn son, but he was not the heir to the Iron Throne. He was a prince who inherited nothing. A life without meaning. Of course, he didn't realize that at the time.
"Look... it's your little niece."
Rhaenyra whispered your name once and the young prince nodded and tried to remember it. Another face had seen the light of day and another sound of happy laughter would soon echo through the cold corridors of the Red Keep.
Of all his half-sister's children, you were by far the one he disliked the most. Aegon came to this realization when he was almost ten years old, when, out of boredom, he asked you instead of your older brother Jace if you would like to play with him, but after you tripped and accidentally fell you immediately started crying as if you had been impaled with a lance, and his mother later gave him a slap in the face behind closed doors that he could still feel on his pale cheek days later.
You had simply fallen over the ends of your dress when you were playing a game in which he had to catch you, but hitting your forehead on the hard stone floor of the Red Keep was definitely too much for a delicate thing like you to bear.
But while you, at the age of six, had already stood up for him and assured your mother several times that he had not pushed you on purpose, Queen Alicent forbade her eldest son to play with Rhaenyra's only daughter again, not because she really cared about your wellbeing, but because in her eyes you were nothing more than a bastard who did not deserve to be called a princess.
Instead, the silver-haired prince had taken to annoying his younger brother Aemond and called for the help of his brown-haired nephews, always excluding you and Helaena.
To the world you seemed like a happy girl, always friendly and always carrying a smile on your face, but you too secretly felt lonely. You never really understood Helaena and you were very afraid of everything that crawled and had more legs than four, which is why you avoided the other girl rather than spending the day with her. Aemond was the same age as you and you liked reading books with him in the library, to be engrossed in thick history books with him and your nose being buried deep in a fairy tale, but at least you could talk to the younger Targaryen prince and share some nice moments.
At least until Aegon and your brothers started making fun of you, which had quickly made your only friend leave your side, as he had already heard enough jokes about how he hardly spoke a word or especially about how he did not have a dragon.
Neither did you, but that didn't seem to interest either of them, except maybe sometimes Jace and Luke, who at the end of the day from time to time apologized for their statements and also for Aegon's taunts. The prince, however, never apologized.
The hatred that you believed your uncle had for you was about to change on a cool summer evening on the day of your eighth birthday.
Dressed in a yellow gown that reminded you of the petals of a sunflower and with your brown hair intricately braided, you sat alone in the garden of the castle, leaning against the Weirwood tree that had probably been growing here for centuries. On your lap lay a new book about fables and songs from the distant lands of Essos, which your "father" Laenor had given you.
You were not stupid. Of course you were aware of the fact that Laenor could not be your father, since you looked too different, but your mother had forbidden you to bring up the subject. She hadn't even answered your question about who your real father was and what the deal was with her and Ser Harwin.
Completely lost in thought, you hadn't realized how a person had slowly and quietly approached you from the side, until he suddenly grabbed you by the shoulders and made you scream loudly.
"Aegon!" you shouted angrily, while the boy just held his stomach in laughter, a full cup of wine in his left hand. When had he started taking his drinks with him?
"Oh, come on! It was just a harmless jest, niece," he answered you, giggling, while he collapsed onto the grass a little further in front of you, which was still glistening with dew, the action not looking particularly graceful. He seemed slightly drunk, which made you wonder why no one took the cup away from him if you had noticed it yourself. Why didn't his mother, the Queen, pay attention? Or his grandfather, the Lord Hand?
"Jest or not, you scared me," you grumbled, folding your arms in front of your chest, while a pout formed on your face that even he couldn't miss.
"Hey, don't pout. Today is your name day, remember?"
"Yes. And you have not thought of giving me a gift, Uncle," you noted in a slightly disappointed tone, while your dark eyes searched his.
"Yes, I did," Aegon countered and threw something at you that you were only able to catch so quickly thanks to your reflexes. "Here you go."
"What is this?" you asked him, confused, as you took his gift in your hands and examined it curiously. You had already wondered why he was the only one in the family who hadn't given you a gift when even the queen had entrusted you with a bracelet from her hometown.
In your delicate hands was a small wooden box, which you did not open yet in fear that it might be one of his jokes again and that there would be something disgusting in it. Hopefully it wasn't a spider...
"Open it. The woman I got it from told me girls like that kind of stuff," Aegon said with a shrug, as he brushed his long wavy curls out of his face.
Carefully and with an expression of suspicion, you opened the small wooden box a crack and stared at its contents with wide eyes. Inside was a beautiful golden brooch in the shape of a coiled dragon, whose eye was represented by a fragment of a pearl. It was beautiful...
Aegon looked at you unnoticed as you looked at the brooch he had given you in awe. He had not thought that this little piece would impress you so much. The best thing was that he didn't even have to pay gold for it, since the old woman had just given it to him when she saw his silver hair. He himself didn't wear such junk, but you in your pretty dresses and shimmering earrings and necklaces would certainly appreciate the piece of jewelry and apparently he was right.
With eyes sparkling with joy and a wide grin on your lips, you took the piece of jewelry out of the box and immediately put it on your dress right above your heart and when you looked at him, he needed a moment to come to terms with his thoughts.
It was probably the wine that was clouding his senses, wasn't it?
"And? Does it suit me?" you asked him excitedly in your normally gentle voice.
He swallowed. "Yes... it's pretty. You are pretty.â
For a moment you just stared at him, unable to believe that he-of all people!- had just called you pretty and given you the most wonderful gift of the evening. You liked the dragon brooch even more than the book and also much better than the wood carvings that your brothers had given you.
"I-I think I'd better leave you alone again now," the prince said suddenly and began to stand up, whereupon you quickly shook your head and instinctively reached for his hand in the hope that he would stay and maybe keep you company for a while. He might annoy you sometimes, but you certainly didn't hate him for that.
"Stay! Please..."
You batted your eyelashes and if Aegon had been stronger, he might have been able to resist. But he wasn't.
With a sigh, he let himself fall back into the grass, whereupon his cup tipped over and the dark red liquid soaked the ground next to you, but for some unusual reason he didn't care.
"And what do you think we'll do, princess? I see neither dancing fools nor musicians for our amusement.â
You seemed to think for a moment, then your gaze fell on the book, which was now lying neglected on the ground next to the tree. You picked it up and held it right in front of his nose.
âI could read to you! It is a collection of legends and songs from Essos. Perhaps you will appreciate them more than your brother.â
His shoulders sagged a little and a quiet sigh escaped him, but he nodded his head anyway, because after all, you were the one who had the special day and had turned a year older. Today was your day to make decisions.
âFine. Read to me then,â said Aegon, leaning against the bark of the old tree that had stood in the courtyard of the Red Keep for generations, a face carved into its center that sometimes seemed to stare at him judgingly. He didnât like it.
His little niece immediately moved closer to him, almost snuggling into his side, and opened the book to the page she had stopped on before he had interrupted her. Appropriately, it was even a legend from Oldtown, the home of his mother the queen.
Her soft voice immediately enveloped him like a warm blanket as she began to read to him and his initially stiff posture eased as he began to allow himself to relax.
He hated to think about it, but maybe you weren't as bad as he had thought.
The first time he thought about kissing you was on a quiet evening when nothing really special had happened except that you, now a girl of almost eleven, had secretly gone riding with him.
Sitting on your snow-white mare, your long brown curls blowing in the wind, a wide grin on your pretty face, and your arms stretched out to feel the headwind, you looked like a midsummer night's dream. The brooch he had given you a few years ago hung on the fabric of your coat.
It was early in the morning and the two of you had sneaked to the stables before anyone else but you and a few guards had walked through the corridors, but he had managed to get you past the watchful eyes of the King's Guard unnoticed. You had mounted your horses as quickly as you could and ridden together into the King's Wood until you found a clearing that seemed good enough to rest for a while.
You sat on the grass in the shade of a tree and ate cakes that he had secretly stolen from the kitchens before as a surprise for you. You had managed to talk him out of the wine.
Crumbs were lying on your lap and you held your hand over your mouth to hide your laughter after he had been frightened by a bug that had crawled onto his arm, causing him to screech as if he were the girl and not you.
His usually pale cheeks were red with embarrassment - as red as the ripest strawberries you loved to eat for breakfast - and he crossed his arms grumpily in front of his chest, but he couldn't blame you for laughing. After all, he often made fun of you because he loved to see you sulk.
But suddenly your happy laughter froze when you felt something on your head. A small white butterfly had landed on your hair and was slowly flapping its wings up and down. Your laughter disappeared and you looked at him with wide eyes. Aegon's heart skipped a beat.
"Aegon... what is that?" you asked him fearfully, not moving a single muscle.
"Well... it's huge. Horrible. The biggest bug I have ever seen," he lied with a mischievous gleam in his purple eyes, causing you to whimper softly and he could swear tears began to form in your eyes. How sweet.
"Make it go away. Help me." You begged him with a trembling voice. Apparently you had actually believed his lie, which made him feel proud.
Very carefully he slowly moved closer to you until your elbows brushed, which made him feel hot on the inside, and you felt the same, even if you didn't notice it, too afraid of the monster that had settled on your hair. You had no idea what innocent creature had chosen you as its resting place.
The prince stretched out his hand and very carefully approached the butterfly with his fingers. He felt you and the little insect looking at him, and it was then he did notice that you were just as delicate and lovely as the butterfly. Perhaps you had been born into the wrong house? You were not at all a dragon.
The butterfly fluttered its wings and hopped onto his index finger, which he held in front of your nose with a wide, triumphant grin on his lips. A sweet blush immediately spread across your cheeks and your slender shoulders sagged as you realized that you had made a fool of yourself.
In front of him of all people. In front of the boy you had secretly admired for several weeks at this point.
"Oh..." you murmured quietly to yourself and looked down at your lap while the butterfly continued to rest on the tip of his finger.
"Look how small and delicate it is... just like you."
You blinked up at him again and at that very moment the little insect jumped off his finger and fluttered away until it finally disappeared behind a nearby rose bush and you were both alone again, your only company being the birds that flew over your heads or nested in the nearby treetops.
"That was not funny, Uncle," you grumbled quietly to yourself and crossed your arms in front of your chest once again, while a small pout adorned your lips, which he found absolutely adorable.
"I thought so, little butterfly," he replied with the hint of a smile on his face, which was slightly tickled by the warm rays of sunlight that fell through the canopy of leaves - at least his nose was.
"Little butterfly?" you repeated the nickname he gave you with a wrinkle of your nose, because you yourself didn't know whether you should feel flattered or insulted. How did he always manage to make you question your feelings over and over again? It was a phenomenon.
"You heard me."
His smile widened and you couldn't help but try to smack him on the arm as best you could, but he just chuckled at your efforts, because it felt like anything but a punch. In his eyes, you were a butterfly, sweet, pure and innocent, deserving to be protected as far away from the scum of House Targaryen, Hightower and Velaryon as possible. You deserved better than this. At the same time, the thought of you leaving him and living somewhere else made him furious.
He wanted you to be happy, but he also wanted you to stay right where you were and where you were comfortable - with him, your annoying, drunken uncle who couldn't wait to see the girl he was sitting with grow into a mature, beautiful woman he could claim for himself.
And hopefully, when the day came, you would want that too.
Laena Velaryon was dead and House Targaryen had gathered for her funeral on the island of Driftmark to mourn the loss. At least those who knew her, which the young children did not and therefore stood rather bored to the side.
Heleana was talking to a spider, Aemond was standing around alone, and the sons of Rhaenyra stood with the daughters of Daemon. Two, however, had sneaked away from the funeral and sat down on the beach, a jug of wine in one hand and a plate of cake in the other.
Aegon, now sixteen years old and almost a man grown, sat to your left on the white sands of the island. He was dressed head to toe in green - on the orders of his mother and grandfather the Hand - and his hair now fell to his chest, even though he secretly wished it were shorter. He didn't really like the length and the tradition behind it. The expectations.
You sat next to him, now almost thirteen, and you were getting more beautiful by the day. Your brown hair, the proof of your mother's shame, now fell to your elbows and your petite body was wrapped in a purple dress and black cloak, due to the grief you had to pretend to feel, even though you had never known this woman. Your mother had wanted to force you to wear red again, but you had stood up to her and bravely confronted her, telling her that this constant hostility was foolish.
Such disagreements were becoming more and more frequent between your mother, your brothers and you, because you and the eldest prince had become truly inseparable in recent years. The bond that bound you together was strong and apparently unbreakable, because even though he continued to make jokes and antics and you mostly felt insulted and hurt as a result, you still felt this feeling. This warmth around your heart, this tickling in your stomach that felt like little butterflies that were locked inside you like in a chest.
You had learned to love him and without your knowledge he had learned to love you too.
"She told me again today to stay away from you," you told him, staring into the horizon and hoping that fate had other plans for you.
"I know, sweet butterfly. Just don't listen to her. What does she know about us anyway? Nothing. She knows nothing.â Aegon replied, instinctively holding his cup, which was filled to the brim with Dornish wine, tighter in his hand. Actually, he felt no hatred towards his half-sister - your mother - but he disliked the way she told you over and over again that his company was not good for you, that his ways were spoiling you like a worm spoils a ripe apple.
Perhaps his own mother was right and Rhaenyra would seek his life at some point. He would not be surprised, as much as she seemed to despise him. What had he ever done to her? Or was it his very existence that she detested?
You stared down at the cake that was on the plate you held in your hand. You had been hungry a moment ago, but now you were not anymore.
âI donât understand why we have to be here at all. None of us knew this woman." The prince grumbled, swirling the wine around in his cup, slowly moving it back and forth.
"She was my aunt-"
"But did you know her?"
You shook your head, one of your brown curls falling over your face and hiding half of your features from him like a veil. Sometimes he caught himself imagining a life with you, and lately his thoughts were not so innocent anymore. More and more often he woke up in the morning, desire burning through his veins, and he thought about you, how beautiful you were and how much more beautiful you would become if your curves continued to develop.
Criston had told him such desires were normal for a young man, but if the prince had admitted that you were the one who kept him awake at night, the man who was a second father to him probably wouldn't have understood either.
He carefully reached out his free hand to you and gently tucked the wild strand of hair behind your ear so that he could once again look into your dark eyes, which had always reminded him of a young doe. "What's going through your mind, niece?"
"Nothing. But... won't the others wonder where we are?"
Aegon was about to contradict you and tell you that you had absolutely nothing to fear when he suddenly heard his grandfather's loud, stern voice echo across the beach: "Aegon! Come here. Now."
You watched your friend anxiously as he straightened up and walked with slumped shoulders to the stone steps that would lead from the beach up to the fortress where the funeral was being held. You couldn't see exactly what was happening, but you swore that the old man grabbed his grandson's arm hard. The words he spoke to him did not seem particularly kind or compassionate, as the young prince quickly pulled away from him and disappeared in another direction.
However, he did not come back to you. He left you sitting alone on the beach with nothing but a glass of wine and a piece of cake. Now you had lost your appetite once and for all.
It was evening when you saw him next. The sun had long since disappeared behind the horizon and most people had returned to their chambers for the night or were getting ready for bed.
You did not know where your mother had gone or why there was suddenly no trace of Prince Daemon when he seemed to be in such a good mood at the funeral, even though he had just become a widower, but you were sure that you could not go to sleep without knowing where your friend was and how he was doing.
You found Aegon on the stairs that led to the beach behind. He was leaning drunkenly with his back against the cold, wet stone and his eyes closed. Next to him lay an overturned gold cup from which a small puddle of red liquid was running.
You had never seen him so drunk before.
Had he drunk himself to the point of unconsciousness?
This was the first time. The previous times you had seen him very drunk, he had at most strolled through the corridors slurring his words - or rather stumbled - and you or Aemond usually had to lead him back to his chambers, where he usually immediately fell onto his bed and sank into a deep sleep. But he had never fallen over because of the alcohol. You wondered what his grandfather had said to him that his first reaction was to get so drunk that he simply fell over.
You approached him carefully and knelt next to his sleeping form. Slowly and careful not to startle him, you reached for the now empty wine cup and put it to the side before gently placing a hand on his shoulder in the hope that he would open his amethyst colored eyes again. But he didn't.
"Uncle? Uncle, can you hear me?" you asked him timidly, leaning closer to him, so close that if he were awake he could feel your warm breath on his snow-white skin.
A mumble was all you got in response, but you couldn't understand any of the words or even guess what he was trying to say. Maybe he shouldn't drink so much... That couldn't be good for him in the long run.
When he didn't answer the second time either, you gently shook his shoulder and then finally his eyes fluttered open again and he blinked a few times in a row, as if he didn't understand where he was or why you were sitting so close to him, almost as if he couldn't remember what he had done before.
"What... what happened?" he asked you dazedly and sat up a little, whereupon a small, tortured groan escaped him.
"I was just about to ask you that," you replied with a smile on your soft, rosy lips. "You suddenly disappeared."
The older prince shrugged and stretched out his arm as if he wanted to reach for the wine cup that he assumed was at his side, but he only grabbed for air, as you had fortunately put it away a few seconds ago.
"I wasn't well. Nothing to worry your pretty head about, darling."
His answer wasn't enough for you, as the memory of Otto Hightower grabbing his arm and whispering angry words to him had not yet left your mind. There was more to it. You knew not what it was, but you suspected that it had something to do with you - or rather your features.
Your mother didn't want to name it, but you knew what you were. A bastard.
"You know that you can always be honest with me, Aegon. You don't have to hide anything from me. I am not your enemy."
At your words, his shoulders sagged and he felt a cold shiver run down his spine, but at the same time a warmth spread through him that he couldn't control and that burned in his eyes like the fire of his young dragon. He would not cry in front of you. He wanted to be strong for you.
"What was it?" you asked him again carefully, stroking his silver curls over his shoulder with one hand so that he would not be able to hide his face from you. You were already well aware of his tricks and you could guess what storm was sweeping through his head and throwing his thoughts into disarray like a hurricane over the sea.
"Did he scare you again? Told you you would be king?"
With every word you spoke, his heart tightened more and more in his chest and he could feel the tears burning hot in his eyes, ready to roll down his cheeks and disappear under the green fabric of his coat. You were too good for him, far too good. You were innocent and pure and he was corrupt and filthy. What had he done to deserve your affection? No one else seemed to think like you.
"Did he tell you to stay away from me?"
Without him being able to stop it, the first tear fell, then the second and suddenly he was sobbing bitterly and you could do nothing but take him in your arms and let him lay his head on your shoulder while you laid your cheek against his hair. He held on to you as if you were the last thing that bound him to life, as if you were the Mother herself who had wrapped her protective arms around him.
"He... he said the future king doesn't bother with the likes of you and that... that I would soon be married anyway and you too..." he sobbed into the fabric of your dress, while his arms wrapped themselves around your slim body and he pressed himself tightly against you, like a plush pillow he could bury his face in.
"That's not true and you know it. Mother would never give me to a man as a bride just yet. She wouldn't do that." You assured him while gently stroking his back. However, you didn't understand why this fact hurt him so much. One day, each of them would be married and bring more heirs into the world. That was the order of things, as the Septa's had taught you.
"But I don't want you to get married. I don't want you to be taken away."
More and more tears fell from his eyes and he couldn't help but tell you all the things that had been going through his head for weeks, months, and maybe even years. All his deepest desires, all the thoughts he hoped would never come to light, he laid at your feet like on a silver platter.
He only hated himself all the more for it.
"Why would they take me away from you? The Red Keep is my home. Mine and yours." You tried to talk to him, keeping your voice calm and collected, but you could feel yourself becoming more and more confused with every second that passed and with every word he whispered. He was falling apart in front of you and yet there was nothing you could do to ease his pain. You felt powerless.
"I don't want to marry just any woman," he murmured, hoping that you would recognize the pleading in his tone and understand what he longed for without him having to say it. He couldn't.
"She will be beautiful, Aegon. Beautiful, kind, smart and witty.â
Your list didnât make it any better, because in his eyes you embodied all of those things. You were the woman you described, the one he wished he would marry sooner or later, but how would you know? How could you even guess what a bad friend he was to you. He was a bad man, a bad prince, a bad son, a bad brother and now a bad friend as well.
You listed other attributes that you hoped would calm him down, because what prince wouldnât want a woman like that? Sometimes you wished you could be that one woman for him, the one he would spend his life by and learn to love. One who could call him âhusband.â But that would probably never happen. You were just a foolish girl with equally foolish dreams.
âBut I donât want just any woman. I want⌠I wantâŚâ He couldnât say it. He couldn't bring the words out of his mouth and instead he just clung to you tightly, burying his head even more in your shoulder before he managed to actually whisper those words that would haunt you from now on.
"I want you."
For a second it felt like the world stood still. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore stopped and the cool breeze of the evening wind only felt like a gentle touch, a light pat. There was a chance that you had misunderstood him, but you knew what you had heard. You knew it exactly.
"Uncle..."
"No, no, please listen to me," he begged immediately when he felt your arms, which were wrapped around him, loosen just a little and you tried to wriggle out of his grip. It was very important that you listened to him now.
"My little butterfly, you are the only one who sees me for who I really am and I know that I am not always easy, but you have to understand that you are the most important thing in my life. You mean everything to me."
You leaned back and let your eyes wander over his face, hoping to find a sign that this was just another one of his jokes and that he wasn't actually pouring his heart out to you. It reminded you of the books you loved to read. The poetry and the romance.
He wasn't lying. His eyes were honest and from the way he looked at you, as if you were the most precious thing to him, you knew that your relationship would be even more difficult in the future than it already was. The friendship between you two was not accepted by your family, but love? Like in the stories, this love was also forbidden, but in all the books the couples always had a happy ending with each other. Maybe everything would turn out well for you in the end too?
"My mother... she would never allow it," you muttered, shaking your head. and now you were the one who could feel your heart tightening painfully.
The prince shook his head firmly and he placed his hands on your cheeks, cradling your face in his palms while his thumbs gently stroked your cheeks, which were red from the cold and his words.
"I don't care. I promise you that one day I will marry you. I will take you as my wife, no matter the cost."
Without thinking, you closed your eyes and gently pressed your forehead against his. Your breath mingled and he closed his eyes too, continuing to gently hold your face in his hands. It wasn't a kiss, but for the two of you this moment had about the same meaning. It was the start of something new, something wonderful.
At that point, none of you could have guessed that not far away from you, a young, brave Aemond was approaching Vhagar with the intention of claiming the old dragon for himself. You did not know that he would soon lose his eye at the hands of his brother, nor that a discussion would then take place in the halls of Driftmark that would tear the two sides of your house apart, forever.
You could not have known that the very next day he would see you one last time and that you would then be torn away from him for six long years. How could you have known that beforehand?
But in that moment, in that embrace, everything was fine for you and you imagined together what your future might look like.
It would certainly be different than you had hoped, but your story would also come to a happy end eventually.
The dragons would dance and yet your souls burned to become one with each other.

Okay, so, the ask about yandere platonic dick cheating and how the reader would react has me wondering; what would happen if the reader somehow found out that Dick didn't actually change and decided to go no contact, because they couldn't trust him or maybe because they just don't want to be around someone like that? Would that cause Dick to spiral more? What exactly would be the consequences of going no contact? (Like a complete cut off, although it'd be a bit hard to do that since they live in the same house)
(I was a bit disappointed to read that he probably wouldn't change, but it seemed realistic to me because habits are hard to break and everyone in the batfam is messed up. Although, I imagine after years of therapy or something similar there might be some sort of change. But, I doubt anyone in the batfam is getting therapy... except maybe reader)
Sorry yeah, i don't like to think Dick is actually a cheater or this shitty. I just like to humor different scenarios i get requested. But you cannot deny that this man is a messy whore. THIS IS THE FACE OF EVILLL
context
Look, cheaters are so sloppy. Even the ones who put the most effort into it are always bound to slip up. I imagine batsis isn't a fool. Like Richard...no way did you just go from being a serial cheater to suddenly being completely cleansed. You're an addict baby boy.
Like i said at first he's actually wanting to get clean for his baby sis and to be a good role model. I think it'd be very obvious to you that he's actually trying. He's irritable and really struggling to cope with the fact he has to put the phone down. You can see him obsessively checking his phone for what you'd assume to be a message or notification from one of his hookups. You can tell he's torn up about loosing his partners because he came clean about his unethical practices....
There's no hiding. This is such a deep seeded issue and it is really taking a toll on him. This is something like you said will need YEARS of therapy to fix.
So now Dick is trying to bullshit you a few days later...right in front of your salad! He's just sooo happy and he's proud about this new leaf turned????? Yesterday he looked like he was about to breakdown in tears because he'd been abstinent for just 48 hrs...and now he's glowing???
Dick, your patrol ended at 2 am last night...you came home at 6 am...please don't play with me rn.
not me getting heated. lol
He doesn't explicitly tell you he's back to his old ways. He's willing to keep lying his way into keeping you and this habit but it's undeniable. You know that his gf only forgave him because he lied to her too. It makes you sick when you saw the text of him telling her that he's busy with family and then left out for the rest of the day to go be with someone else.
Maybe you explode on him about it? Last time you were as nice as you could be about it but you cannot deal with the games anymore.
I liked to think in this scenario you're yelling at him and he's just still gas-lighting you, He throws every card to make you feel bad for accusing him. It absolute drives you mad. He's just so calm while you're are trying not to strangle him.
"Baby bat, i love you. I think you're just tired and are imagining things. You're convincing yourself that i'm still the old Dick because you're hurting...i understand and I forgive you. Maybe we should set up therapy sessions to help you let go of the past? Hmm?"
"YOU MOTHER FU-"
Ugh but i love him he's so fucked
The irony of him suggesting you therapy when he's the one riddles with mommy issues and the most insane coping mechanisms...
Dick isn't going to allow you to go no contact. You cannot go no contact with someone you live in the same house with. You are bound to interact and when you are dealing with someone like dick...it just won't work. The bat kids are extremely resilient and are well versed in making someone crack. You wouldn't be the exception.
More realistically you'd probably just be cold towards Dick. That's the best you can do. Not really responding to him and basically stone walling...
But i imagine this version of Dick to be much more forceful. He's done with your self righteousness. How dare you suggest moving out. That isn't an option because he needs to see his baby sister everyday. You are breaking up the family over this. You cannot cut him off because he's flawed...it's not that serious y/n. None of the other siblings are breathing down his neck. Maybe if you weren't so frustrating..he could actually become a better person. You are the one that is preventing him from being better with all your pressure!!
You packed your bags and are fully ready to walk out of this family for good because there's just too many wrong doings swept under the rug and here comes dick who is FUMING... He's trying to rip your bags out of your hands and grab you up..
You are not doing this to him. Stop being so-
Maybe your siblings step in and help you to leave. They help Dick calm down because they respect that it's your choice to live how you'd life.
Dick isn't stopping once you're gone. Especially if you're still in Gotham. There's a shadow that follows you where you go. Tons of messages and calls from unknown numbers. Even scarily enough..a blue toy bird left at your door with a small note that read
"Missed me, my little birdie? We'll be seeing each other again soon."
