YT decided that I apparently want to listed to podcasts about figure skating which immediately transported me back to the dreamling skating au brainrot of course x'D
@arialerendeair I didn't forget about the chat we had about pair skating, my brain circles back to it from time to time. And I finally got back to finishing this sketch, thought you might like it so I'm tagging you :).
Also, if anyone's wondering, yes, this was definitely inspired by pair skaters Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir. again.
#dreamling#dreamling figure skating au#mayhem art#dream of the endless#hob gadling#lmao i tend to spend a lot of time on designing clothes even though I know nothing about fashion.....#but skating outfits are so much fun! :D I could not resist the FEATHERS AND GLITTERS!#and it had to be done in colour for obvious reasons xD#i could not leave it as a simple sketch#arialerendeair

i love people who think alexandra trusova was a victim of corruption at any point in her career. like sure buddy!!!!
#figure skating#3 am thoughts: ppl only like sasha bc the clip of her crying at the olympics activates the sympathy chip in them#(and i get it. to an extent)#and it makes them experience delusions like âshe deserved first!!!â#coupled with the fact that the average person knows literally nothing about figure skating#âthis girl landed 5 of the hardest jumps and she still lostâ + the crying clips = injustice!!#when her performance was just. ********.#but people are unable to think critically so it leads to them thinking trusova was a victim of corruption#and even make up fake shit about anna like sheâs related to the judges. simply to cope with the fact that sasha lost#fs.txt

Figure skating sketchbook AU where Kaisa is a singles skater and Johanna is a pairs skater and they start meeting at competitions. Kaisa is this black horse type of athlete who nobody knows where she came from but begins earning her success and fame because of her dramatic performances, flexibility and jumps, not to mention her witchy aesthetics. Johanna and her pair, Edmund, are known for their sync and impressive strength, their main focus being the storytelling that theyâve decided to direct towards stories that arenât about romance, but rather about literally anything else, always with praise worthy creativity.
Kaisa tries to repress her feelings, of course. Johanna is obviously married to her partner, judging by how connected they are on the ice, and by the fact that they have the same surname.
She only realizes otherwise when Hilda shows up to congratulate her mother after a competition and yells âuncle, you did amazing!â
#figure skating AU#Hilda is a hockey player btw#gosh I LOOOVVE figure skating AUs#shame I could never write one bc I know NOTHING about the sport FSKHDJSHDJ#itâs just not cultural over here. we donât have ice rings#[well I think there's one in the city I live in (the second biggest in the country) and there must be a couple more#in the actual biggest city]#and heavens know nothing freezes naturally in this weather#if Lauren was in this verse she'd also be a single's skater and she'd already know Kaisa#and she'd know exactly what was going on in Kaisa's head and NEVER mention that BK was just her uncle LMAO#sketchbook ship#sketchbook ship hilda#Johanna hilda#Kaisa hilda#the bell keeper Hilda

May I suggest something for your hockey au? Hockey players have a thing where theyâll basically tackle hug and then hold the members of the opposite team if a fight breaks out. Itâs a way of keeping themselves in check.
Just food for thought~
Oh absolutely I know about that hehe and will try and utilize it when I can >:) Thereâs a lot of sweet stuff in hockey I wanna draw! I like the sport a lot
#ask#Iâm also absolutely down for people to share any figure skating knowledge with me I know nothing about it lol

figure skating au fanfics are interesting to read because you can usually tell if the author's knowledge of it mainly comes from yoi or casually watching the olympics every four years when you get gems like:
the main character saying that they might participate in three competitions for the grand prix if it'll improve their standing which is impossible to do. like everyone is restricted to two, the only way you'd get a third is if you couldn't attend one of the original two that you were scheduled for because idk you had covid or something.
the main character saying that they're trying to do a quad axel. A Quad. Axel. A jump that only ONE PERSON IN THE ENTIRE WORLD has landed in competition and that only happened A YEAR AGO. and this character isn't even a pro skater!??? They're competing in the intercollegiate!!?? Not that there aren't good skaters in the intercollegiate, on the contrary there are many, many extremely skilled skaters, but if you can even ATTEMPT a QUAD AXEL then your character should be going pro. Or like, you should have tons of people trying to convince that character to go pro and the country should literally be trying to recruit them because a QUAD AXEL??????????
#jesus i think my heart jumped a quad axel when I read that#ofc there is nothing wrong with writing a fic about something that you're not that knowledgeable about!!!#I don't want to sound like I'm gatekeeping#I write about shit I don't know ALL the time#figure skating#random letters of blah#fanfiction#fandom

can we give Greece back the Olympics forever? We don't need to pass it around, this ain't the sisterhood of the traveling pants. Just leave it with the closest approximation of who originally ran it. The Greeks.

#oc art#puppet#dancer#acrobat#marionette#i know nothing about doll anatomy.#or acrobatics tbh. beyond the fact that i like watching figure skating and gymnastics#so some of its movement is inspired by that

Falling
Nico Hischier x fem!reader
summary: reader gets hurt and nico is worried about her
notes: yâall i ainât gonna lie, i went through a bit of a rollercoaster while writing this. i loved it at first, then halfway through started hating it, then somehow started loving it again towards the end. so if it seems a little all over place iâm sorry. also i know very little about how a dislocated shoulder works, so just pretended i didnât if i got anything wrong. i hope yâall enjoy it!! happy reading!! đŤśđź
request: from my 400 follower celly - âA hears that B got hurt and rushes over in a panic to see if they are okayâ where reader maybe gets in an accident or gets hurt in their sport (nothing major). Bonus points if you add âI can braid your hair for you- I mean, only if you want.â
[4.5k]
part 2
âYeah, Mom, Iâm fine. Nothingâs broken, just a nasty dislocation,â you attempt to calm your motherâs nerves, trying to unlock your apartment door with your good arm while balancing your phone between your cheek and shoulder. âThey reset it for me and told me to follow up with my primary care on Monday. Gave me some pain meds and sent me on my way.â
âWell, what about until then? What if you need help? What about work? How will you drive?â she rapid fires questions at you.
âIâll figure it out, donât worry. Since it was a work-related injury, Iâll still get paid. And theyâre paying all of the medical bills, so thatâs all taken care of,â you make your way into your apartment, shutting the door with your foot behind you. âEverything else Iâll handle as it comes.â
She doesnât seem satisfied with your answer, tsking into her phone, making you picture her trademark displeased headshake.
âWhat about Nico? Why donât you stay with him until youâre back to 100%? Iâm sure heâd be willing to help out,â she suggests, her tone switching from worried to suggestive.
You roll your eyes, knowing exactly where this conversation is headed.
âMom, how many times do I have to tell you, Nico and I are just friends. We work together. Just because you think you saw him look at me a certain way when you were visiting doesnât mean I have to call him every time something goes wrong,â you tell her, placing your bag on your kitchen table.
Ever since your mom came in a few months ago to visit, sheâs been on your case about making a move on Nico, it all starting when she witnessed Nico helping you across the ice during a pre-game practice while trying to get some action shots.
You work as a photographer for the Devils, not realizing that being able to ice skate would have been a nice addition to your resume.
Your college advisor arranged the interview for you right before graduation. You had no previous knowledge of hockey, having come from a football family. You told your advisor this, but she insisted you didnât have to know anything about a sport to be able to take good pictures of it.
During the interview, you made sure to inform your now boss that you didnât know how to skate, hoping it wouldnât be a problem. He assured you that you could take pictures from the stands or the players bench, the chance of you having to step onto the ice slim.
For the first few months of your job, it was smooth sailing. You were mostly taking pictures from the camera holes in the glass or being told to cover locker room and arrival pictures. You worked with one other photographer, a seasoned sports photography veteran named Phil. Phil was a New Jersey native, having grown up skating, so he took over the duties of any major action shots the director wanted from on the ice.
Unfortunately for you, Philâs wife had convinced him to retire early, losing his help right before the leagueâs short Christmas break.
Seeing as they had just hired you, and it was the middle of the season, the hunt for a replacement for Phil was put on the backburner, more important team matters taking precedence.
You were forced to take over Philâs duties, meaning you were now responsible for any on the ice shots. You had found a way to slowly scoot across the perimeter of the rink, staying out of the way while also getting the shots you needed.
Your system was working well until the morning of a gameday, having gotten permission from your boss to bring your mother along to this particular practice, wanting to show her all aspects of your job.
For this particular game, the players were especially focused on practicing their skills and running drills during morning skate. You were doing your typical shuffle while clutching the edge of the waist-high wall when someone came zooming past you, causing your feet to start sliding uncontrollably, not being able to find your footing on the slick ice.
You felt the moment you were about to fall, waiting for the impact of your butt on the cold ice, but it never came. You felt yourself fall into a body covered by plastic pads, gloved hands shooting out to grab your upper arms.
You looked up, seeing Nico smiling down at you in amusement.
âItâs a bit slippery out here, huh?â he jokes, making sure youâre standing steady on your feet before letting go of you.
âWell, we are standing on ice, soâŚ.â You trail off, grabbing onto the wooden ledge again, preventing another near fall.
Nico laughs, looking down and shuffling his skates back and forth.
âWell would you look at that? We are on ice â He flashes a smile, looking back up at you.
You stick your tongue out at him, earning another chuckle from the teamâs Captain.
âYou know, most people use these great things called ice skates when they try to walk on ice,â he tells you, lifting one skate up for emphasis.
Rolling your eyes, you scoff out a âOh wow, why didnât I ever think of that?â
âJust some food for thought,â Nico shrugged as he placed his foot back down on the ice, skating in a little circle, as if to say âSee, told you so.â
You let go of the ledge to cross your arms, forgetting that you needed the stability. When you try to shift your weight from one leg to the other, you lose your footing again, this time falling forward into Nico. You let the camera in your hands fall, grabbing onto his biceps to stay upright, thankful for the camera strap around your neck.
His hands shoot out to grab your forearms.
âYou know the sad thing is, even with the skates, Iâd still be as clumsy, considering I have absolutely no idea how to use them,â you tell him, the two of you still holding on to one another.
Nico shakes his head at you, placing one of your hands on his forearm, moving you from in front of him to beside of him.
He starts slowly skating towards the bench while you shuffle your feet along, putting all of your focus on keeping yourself upright until you reach your destination.
When you finally reach the bench, you step off of the ice and let out a breath of relief.
âThanks, Cap. Wouldâve hated to make a fool of myself out there while my momâs watching,â you thank him, looking over to where your mom sits, a smile on her face.
Nico follows your gaze and waves to your mom, matching her smile.
âWell, we wouldnât want that now, would we? What if she found out her daughter was a skating fraud?â he teases, leaning in to whisper the last two words.
âItâs her fault for never taking me to the rink my town would throw up once a year at Christmas. Who knows, maybe I wouldâve been a skating prodigy if given the chance,â you shrug.
A mischievous smile makes its way onto his face. âI think we should put that theory to the test,â he tells you, causing your eyes to latch onto his.
âCome again?â You raise your eyebrows and tilt your chin down.
âI mean, I canât have some photographer out on my ice during practices that canât even stand up,â he keeps his tone light, making sure you know heâs just teasing, âSo, Iâm going to teach you how to skate, and see if you really would have been a skating prodigy.â
He skates off, winking before resuming his practice.
You donât have a chance to speak to him again until after the game, when you get at text from an unknown number reading âRink, tomorrow, 2pm. Iâll bring skates, just bring your prodigy skills.â
After that, you meet with Nico twice a week for skating lessons.
The two of you quickly form a friendship, Nico bringing you coffee on gamedays and you slipping him snacks on the bench during games. You even started inviting him over for dinner after your lessons, insisting the least you can do is feed him to repay him for preventing you from making a fool of yourself on the ice.
Today, however, you did make a fool of yourself on the ice.
You were standing behind the net, telling the players to skate towards you so you could get some shots for the teamâs Instagram account by request of the social media manager.
Once you were pleased with the amount of shots you had gotten, you left your spot from behind the net, skating slowly towards the benches, still a little wobbly on your skates.
You were looking down at your camera, thinking of how youâll have to get Nico out here after the game to get some shots, knowing heâs currently doing pre-game interviews in the locker room.
You werenât paying the slightest bit of attention to the pucks littering the ice in front of you, skating right into one and losing your balance, holding your camera up with one arm while trying to catch yourself with the other.
You felt the way your shoulder shifted, crying out in pain as players turned and started rushing towards you on the ice.
The team doctor came out and told you he was pretty sure your shoulder was simply dislocated, but sent you to the hospital to make sure nothingâs broken.
The ER doctor confirmed your diagnosis, putting your shoulder back into place before pumping you full of pain meds and placing your arm into a sling.
Which leads you to where you are now, back at your apartment, explaining to your mother why Nico canât be at your beck and call.
âHoney, when are you going to realize that boy is in love with you? Iâm telling you, the way I saw him look at you that day I came to visit, the skating lessons and dinners,â she starts, giving you her typical speech when you tell her Nico is just a friend.
âMom, it doesnât matter what you think you saw, weâre seriously just friends. And heâs busy, his schedule is too hectic to spend his time babysitting me,â you interrupt her, not wanting to hear her Nico speech for the thousandth time, regretting ever telling her about the skating lessons.
She sighs into the phone.
âIâm just trying to help you, you knowâŚâ you hear your mother start, but you tune the rest of her words out, focusing on the three loud knocks on your front door.
Your head turns to your door, the unexpected noise causing you to jump, the sudden motion tipping your bag over, the contents spilling all of your kitchen floor.
âHoney, are you alright? What was that?â your mom halts her one-sided conversation, worry in her tone.
âShit!â you exclaim, watching the container of memory cards fly open, the small squares sliding across the linoleum floor.
You forget about the sling on your arm, crouching down and trying to reach for the cards with your bad arm, a searing pain shooting through your shoulder at the movement.
Letting out a loud yelp, you bring your arm back to its resting positing in the sling.
âY/N, whatâs going on? Did you hurt yourself?â you barely hear your motherâs voice through the phone speaker, not being able to think about anything other than the throbbing pain in your shoulder.
You hear three more pounds on your front door, this time a voice following the knocks.
âY/N! Open up!â
You groan, trying to stand up, too many people trying to get your attention at the moment.
âHoney, talk to me. Is someone in there with you? I heard another voice,â your mother asks you as you stand, making your way over towards your front door.
âSomeoneâs knocking on the door,â you grit through your teeth, trying to think about anything but the pain in your shoulder. âI dropped my bag and tried to pick something up with my bad arm. Iâm fine. Just hurts,â you tell her, opening your door to see a frantic Nico standing there.
His wide eyes scan your body, stopping once they see the sling on your arm.
You notice his wet hair and lack of socks on his tennis shoe covered feet.
âAre you okay? They told me you had to be taken to the hospital before the game started, but no one knew what really happened,â he rushed out, looking up at your face.
âHey, Mom, gotta go, Nicoâs at my door,â you tell her, a little stunned that the object of your conversation just appeared, hanging up the phone before she could make any comments about it.
âYeah, Iâm fine. Are you?â you ask him, pointing towards his feet, an amused smile on your face. The shock of seeing him at your door making you completely forget about the pain in your shoulder.
Nico looks down at his own feet, looking back up at you with red cheeks.
âOh, uh, I couldnât find my socks after the game and i couldnât get you to answer your phone, so I rushed over to the hospital to see if you were still there, and they told me you left about an hour ago, so I hopped in my car and came over here to make sure you were okay,â he tells you, not meeting your eye.
Youâre shocked at his confession, not expecting him to be so concerned about your impromptu trip to the hospital.
âWell, Iâm here and still standing,â you awkwardly stand in your doorway, not knowing what else to say, thinking about how if you werenât arguing with your mom over Nico on the phone, you might have gotten his calls.
âYeah, I see that now,â he shoves his hands in the pocket of his hoodie.
The two of you stand there, not really knowing what to say to one another.
âDo you want to come in?â you ask him, moving out of the doorway to let him step into your apartment.
Nico shakes his head yes and walks past you, looking towards the mess on the floor in your kitchen.
âWhat happened here? Is this the crash I heard?â he asks you.
âYeah, the bag fell and spilled everything. When I went to pick it up, I forgot and used my bad shoulder,â you gesture to your slinged arm.
Nico shakes his head at you, crouching down to pick up the camera disks all over the floor.
âOh, no, you donât have to-â
âWell youâre sure as hell not trying to pick them up again,â Nico interrupts you, standing and placing the now full box of disks on your table.
You roll your eyes at him, walking over towards your fridge.
âSo, what exactly happened? Jack told me you hurt your shoulder?â he follows you over to your fridge, watching you scan its contents, or lack thereof.
âWell, I was looking at my camera and skated right into a bunch of pucks on the floor, then was too focused on saving the equipment instead of remembering how to fall properly,â you told him, remembering his words during your first skate lesson, telling you not to catch yourself if you fall on the ice.
âSee, I told you to just let yourself fall. Never try to catch yourself,â he echoes his words in your thoughts.
âYeah, well, itâs a lot easier said than done,â you deadpan, shutting your fridge door and looking at Nico.
Your stomach growls at that exact moment, making you groan at your lack of food in your fridge, not having eaten since before your accident.
âWhen was the last time you ate anything?â Nico asks you, looking down at your growling stomach.
âUhhh, breakfast?â you recall.
Nicoâs eyes widen. âItâs almost midnight. Did they really not feed you at the hospital?â he asks you.
âConsidering they were busy doing x-rays and scans to make sure nothing was broken or torn, no,â you walk over to your cabinets, finding them also bare.
âAlright, go sit down and Iâll order us something to eat,â Nico shoos you out of the kitchen, walking over and opening the drawer where you keep all of your takeout menus.
You wonder how he knows where your menus are, forgetting for a moment that heâs over at your apartment at least twice a week after your skating lessons. Sometimes more, the occasional movie night making its way into your weekly routine.
âWhat do you want? Sushi? Chinese? Burgers?â he questions, flipping through your menus.
For some reason, your brain chooses this moment to register how much you enjoy the sight of Nico in your kitchen, looking through your takeout menus and offering to order you dinner.
You think back to all the times heâs helped you make dinner, laughter filling every moment of your time together. You think about how he always wear his pjs when he comes over for a movie night, bringing a different chocolate candy to put in the popcorn each time. You think about how he somehow learned your coffee order without you ever telling him, bringing you a coffee every morning, even at away games.
You think about your motherâs words, and how you didnât even have to ask Nico to come over tonight, or to give you skating lessons. You think about how you never have to ask Nico to do anything he does for you â which is a lot, youâre realizing â he just does it. He does it because he wants to, because heâs kind and caring and wants to spend time with you.
âHello? Earth to Y/N, what do you want for dinner?â Nico snaps you out of your sudden revelation.
âSorry, spaced out for a second. Must be the pain meds,â you tell him, knowing that your mind isnât the least bit impaired right now.
âOkay, go sit down, we need to get some food in you then,â he fishes his phone out of his pocket, mumbling out âCanât believe they pumped you full of meds on an empty stomach.â
You make your way to your couch, sitting down and taking your shoes off, making yourself as comfortable as you can.
You remove a stray piece of hair that fell onto your face, knowing how awful it must look.
When you fell on the ice, the claw clip that was holding your hair in its up-do broke, causing it to fan out over the cold, wet ice. Once you got to the hospital, you were put in and out of so many different machines, you can only imagine the tangled, matted mess it is.
You get up and go to your bathroom, finding your brush and trying to comb it out. The task proving to be difficult with only one hand. The tangles keep pulling your head back and hurting your tender scalp, but you keep trying, whimpering each time the brush gets stuck on a particularly bad tangle.
You donât even hear Nico approach your bathroom, just a sigh and âI told you to sit down,â before the brush is taken from your hand and you see Nicoâs reflection behind you in the mirror.
Without another word, he proceeds to brush your hair for you, ensuring every tangle is gone before setting the brush on your sink.
The two of you make eye contact in the mirror, neither one wanting to break the silence during the surprisingly intimate moment.
You clear your throat, looking down after the silence got too intense, causing Nico to avert his eyes as well.
âI really wish i could wash my hair, but i know thatâs a no go tonight,â you chuckle, wishing your bathroom was a little bit bigger in this moment.
âI can braid your hair for you,â Nico starts, staring at you in the mirror, watching your eyes snap up to meet his. âI mean, only if you want,â he stutters out.
âReally?â you ask him, a little stunned.
âYeah. I used to help Nina with hers all the time when I was younger,â Nico mentions his older sister, grabbing your hair lightly and starting to section it off. âAnytime she would have a sleep over I would always weasel my way into the party. So one day, she made me sit in a braiding chain and learn how to braid her hair.â
You let out a giggle, picturing a smaller version of Nico sitting at the end of a line of girls, braiding their long hair.
âThen, Nina claimed I got so good at it she always wanted me to braid her hair before her volleyball matches, then her friends all started wanting me to do theirs, too,â he continues talking, nearly lulling you to sleep with the soft movements of his hands as you listen to him speak.
âI think thatâs adorable,â you quietly speak, closing your eyes.
âWhat can I say? When a pretty girl needs her hair braided, who am I to keep my skills to myself?â he jokes, making you wonder if he meant you or his sisterâs friends.
âIâm sure itâs any little boyâs dream to have an entire volleyball team at his mercy, all those pretty volleyball players begging him to play with their hair,â you tease him, handing him the hair tie that you always keep on your wrist.
âI donât know, I think playing with a pretty photographerâs hair is better, if you ask me,â he ties the hair tie around the bottom of the braid, reaching up to pull the braid loose, making sure itâs not too tight.
You keep your eyes closed, knowing he can likely see the redness on your cheeks at his words.
âAlright, eyes open. Need to make sure you like my work,â he places his hands on your biceps, making sure to keep his touch feather light on your bad arm.
He turns you around so youâre facing him, holding a handheld mirror that was laying on your sink in front of your face, allowing you to see the reflection of the braid.
Youâre shocked to see the flawless Dutch braid that cascades down your back.
âNico, youâre likeâŚreally good at this,â you reach your good hand to the back of your head, running it down the braid.
âTold you, I had a lot of practice,â he shrugs, setting the mirror down.
You yawn, the relaxing nature of having your hair braided allowing you to realize how tired you are from the dayâs events.
âNuh-uh, gotta keep you awake until we get some food in you,â he tuts, taking his hands and patting your cheeks.
You groan, leaning into his palms that stay resting on your face.
âCâmon, letâs get you changed and on the couch,â he motions for you to leave the bathroom.
You walk to your room, Nico helping you carefully remove your sling before leaving and giving you some privacy.
You change into your pajamas, somehow managing to get your arm into an oversized Devils shirt you found at the bottom of your drawer.
Nico is standing outside of your door when you open it, helping you back into your sling.
He stands in front of you, staring at you with a look that you canât decipher.
âIsâŚeverything okay?â you question him, noticing his stare after adjusting your sling.
His eyes snap up to you, seemingly unaware that he was even staring at you in the first place.
âUh, yeah, sorry. I just- is that my shirt?â he asks you, pointing to your pj shirt.
You look down at the oversized shirt, trying to think of where you got it.
It had just showed up in your laundry basket one day, assuming it was one they gave you when you got your job, but Nicoâs question makes you think harder.
You realize, suddenly, you do remember where you got it.
During one of your post lesson dinners, Nico had spilled his drink all over his shirt. You offered to wash it for him after he changed to a shirt in his duffel.
You meant to take it back to him after you washed it, but forgot about it entirely, packing it away in your pajama drawer.
âOh, crap, it is. Do you want it back, I can go change?â you ask him, worried heâs upset that you forgot to give it back.
âNoâŚno itâs fine. Keep it. I have plenty,â he shakes his head, glancing down at it once more.
The two of you make your way to your couch, finding something to watch on tv when thereâs a knock on the door, signaling the arrival of your food.
You start to stand to go get it, but Nico sternly tells you to stay put.
Rolling your eyes you sit back down, grabbing the remote and continuing to channel surf.
Nicoâs gone for longer than you expect, causing you to sit up and turn back towards your kitchen, wondering whatâs taking him so long.
You see him walking over to you, a tray full of food in his hands.
He had ordered from your favorite sushi place, figuring it would be the easiest for you to eat one handed.
As he sat down the tray on the coffee table in front of you, you realized what took him so long.
Nico had put a toothpick in each piece of your sushi, knowing using chopsticks with your non dominant hand would have been hard for you. He poured soy sauce into a small container, allowing you to simply pick up each toothpick and dip it in the sauce before popping it in your mouth.
He had also ordered you a bottle of cherry coke, which he knew was your favorite, and placed it on the tray with the lid unscrewed and a straw peeking out of the bottle next to a glass of ice, just incase you wanted it that way instead.
You looked up at him, feeling that funny feeling in your chest like you did earlier in your kitchen, blown away at how he always seems to think of everything he can to help you out, even when youâre not injured.
You mustâve been looking for longer than you realized, because he cocks his head at you, confusion present on his face.
âWhat?â he asks, not understanding whatâs wrong. âDid you not want sushi? I thought you said it was always the one thing that could cheer you up?â
You shake your head at him. âNo, sushi is perfect,â you tell him, a small smile on your face as you look up at him.
He smiles back for a few moments, then started scooting the coffee table towards you so you donât have to reach to grab your food. He moves around the table to sit beside of you, the size of the small table causing him to sit so close to you that you can feel the warmness of his large thigh against yours.
You once again think about all of the things heâs done for you without you even having to ask. Now including coming over after a gameâno doubt exhausted and soreâand taking care of you without even thinking twice. Braiding your hair and calling you pretty. Staring at you unintentionally wearing his t-shirt. Modifying your food so itâs easier for you to eat with one hand.
You sit there, staring at the man you fear youâre falling in love with, already planning out the apology text youâre going to have to send your mom.

dating him | han jisung
â you found my heart broken and you helped me make it whole again â
chan | lee know | changbin | hyunjin | HAN | felix | seungmin | jeongin
i think youâre a second love type situation for han jisung
the one where he thought heâd never recover from his first heartbreak
but then here u come
i think hanâs the type of person to feel everything
if heâs in love, heâs in LOVE
and if heâs hurt, it would just be overwhelming pain
so imagine how he was when he got his first heartbreak
heâd lose a little bit of his spark
maybe keep to himself even more than he used to
u come to his life in the form of a friend first
and han has unknowingly planted a seed thatâs grown and grown and grown
with every interaction
with every laugh youâve brought back
with every moment he was coming out of his shell again
until itâs fully bloomed into a love thatâs very very real and very very present
han jisung would also love so beautifully
he knows what itâs like to be hurt, and he doesnât ever want u to feel that same pain
he rly makes efforts
he is FULL of efforts
and he makes u laugh âšď¸âšď¸âšď¸âšď¸
he communicates
and when the boys finally meet u, theyâre very grateful but also
????!!!! why do u they know ur favorite color
and ur go-to order at the cafe
and the hoodie u like to steal from jisung the most
well turns out, han loves talking about u to his friends
they just know everything about u before even meeting u
heâd get rly shy about it but never embarrassed
heâd tell the whole world about u if he could
what else can i tell u
han jisung is just someone where nothing sounds crazy to him
so i think all ur dates with him would be so fun and adventurous lowk
amusement parks !!!!!
ice skating and roller blading
both of u would fall on ur ass
but youâd also laugh so much and somehow that makes up for everything
youâd be holding hands and skating with each other and looking at each other with lovesick smiles
I FEEL SICK!!!!!!!!
heâs always trying to impress u too
he tries to imitate figure skaters
kids donât try this at home
ofc he fails miserably
obvious blushes when youâd tell him he was cute for trying
or when youâd praise him
anyways when i said heâs always trying to impress u i mean ALWAYS
he treats the relationship like heâs still pining after you
being the standard fr
he never lets go of the love
sometimes heâd still get shy to ask u out
somehow he doesnât believe u actually said yes to him
he thinks heâs the luckiest boy
anyways, aside from adventurous dates, he equally values his inside time and quieter dates
heâs thankful u understand his shifts in his energy
on days u stay inside, youâd probably watch horror movies
lookâŚ. he suggests itâŚ.
it looked cool in his head to be all protective
youâd hold onto his arm when the jumpscares come
but
womp womp
he ends up being more afraid than u
and now HEâS holding ur arm
yeah it looked way cooler in his head
youâd play silly little board games together
or maybe charades
heâs so easily amused by sexual innuendos
heâs just a man guys
anyways
there are two things he loves to steal from u the most
aside from ur kisses
and itâs (1) ur perfume and (2) ur lip balm
uâd catch him putting on ur perfume just bc he wants to be surrounded by ur scent
itâs very comforting
one time, he was sick and the boys were taking care of him
and when u finally had time to take over and care for ur bf
u just âŚ. smell ur perfume
âdid you put on my perfume?â
âi missed you âšď¸âšď¸âšď¸âšď¸â
DOWN BADDDDD
heâs so pouty and so cute
letâs suffocate him with the pillow
KIDDINGGGGGG KIDDING
and then ur lip balm
sometimes he steals the actual thing
sometimes he kisses you so he can have it on his lips too
han jisung is also the type to avail every possible couple coupon
and heâs always begging the cashiers to let u prove uâre a couple
itâs so he has an excuse to kiss you
so
months into dating him also means a thousand love letters
he loves writing u love letters
and u know sooner that he also writes songs
on ur anniversary, he reveals a song heâs written for you
and when he proposes, he tells u about every single one heâd ever written about you and for you
wish that were me đđđđđ
TAKE CARE OF HIM

What if?
Genre: fluff
Word count: 3,229 words
Featuring: matt rempe x female reader
Warnings: drunk guy being an asshole at the bar, aggressive/protective Matt
Note: okay, this is the first thing Iâve written in years, please be kind đ
I just got a thing for this man now idkâŚfeel free to send in some requests or let me know if you want more to this story? Not sure if it will be a one off or a little series
âOkay, how do I look?â You walk down the hall of your apartment, stopping to pose for Matt so he can give you his stamp of approval. He eyes you up and down, as if he is going to deliver some harsh critique. Your outfit is nothing crazy; jeans, a gray long sleeved bodysuit, black heeled boots, and a small cross body bag. With the New York City weather still chilly out, you figured it would keep you warm along with the alcohol youâd be consuming.
âBeautiful as always. But letâs try and keep the collecting of guys' phone numbers to a minimum tonight huh?â You laughed as you playfully smacked Mattâs arm. Making your way to the fridge to grab your High Noon youâd started sipping on before getting dressed. âDonât tell me youâre jealous Matthew Rempe.â He shot you a cocky smirk as he leaned on the kitchen island next to you. âMe? Jealous? Never. Because Iâm the one in your apartment and not them.â You rolled your eyes as you swallowed down the last bit of seltzer before unplugging your phone from the charger nearby. âOkay Mr. Chauffeur, letâs hit the road.â
You loved having Matt in NYC playing with the Rangers. The two of you had been best friends since you were teenagers, though youâd lost touch a bit once you moved to New York. Mattâs stint in Hartford allowed the chance to slowly reconnect, but having him now with the Rangers was even better. The two of you often spent nights at each other's apartments, going out to dinner, and of course you attended every home game you could to see Matt play.
Youâd always had a soft spot for Matt. Sure he was a bit intimidating being practically 7 feet tall, his knuckles cut up or bruised half the time, and a black eye never seeming to catch you off guard anymore. But youâd gotten close enough to see the side of him most people donât experience. Though you never imagined your relationship being anything more than what it was. Friends, and nothing more than that. But you couldnât deny the way you had paid attention to how heâd grown into a man. He had outgrown his awkward phase, and you now looked at him and saw him as handsome, not cute or adorable like he was when you were growing up.
You constantly find yourself thinking, what if you werenât just imagining things? When he spends the night and walks into your room wearing just a towel after a shower. The way he hugs you and lingers longer than just a friend would. The way he takes care of you when youâre drunk. Or nights like tonight, where heâs willing to stay up late to be your designated driver when heâs got an early morning skate and a big game tomorrow night.
Just one day, one day youâd love to kiss him and see what happens. Or flirt a little extra and see if he takes the bait. But you also donât want to lose your best friend in the process, or be turned down and embarrassed for thinking heâd ever feel that way about you.
âSo whatâs the plan for tonight?â Matt asks as he puts a hand on the back of your seat as he looks over his shoulder, backing out of his parking space. Itâs such a cliche action, but boy does he look good doing it, and your heart certainly skipped a beat.
âThe typical routine. Start at Tuckerâs. Then move on to 1989. Then finish-â âAt Coopâs?â Matt smirked as he looked out at the road. One hand on the wheel with the other resting on his thigh. He was literally in jeans and a hoodie yet somehow he looked just as good as he does in a suit on game day. âEither that means I go out too much, or youâre finally starting to pay attention when I tell you things.â âDefinitely not paying attention, itâs you going out too much.â He laughed as you playfully punched his arm, pulling out your phone to text your friends that you were a few minutes away.
âSo Cooperâs closes at 2:30, but I honestly donât think Iâll last that long. Especially because someone has a big game tomorrow! And I wanna be well rested. So letâs plan for like 12:30/1? Is that okay?â You looked at Matt a bit apologetic, knowing heâd have to be up early for morning skate. But he was always adamant about driving you, no matter what time it was.
âOf course, you know Iâll be here no matter the time. Iâll plan to be at Coopâs around 12:45. Iâll come in to get you too, itâs gonna be cold and dark out. I donât want you walking to find me.â You put a hand to his cheek as you make a joking pouty expression. âAww, such a gentleman Matty.â He smiled at your touch, almost leaning into your hand as he looked back at you, âAnything for you. Now go on, I know the girls are waiting. Text me if you need anything, and I mean anything y/n. Iâm not that far of a drive.â You let out a sigh as you undid your seatbelt, âHonestly Matt, nothing to worry about, Iâll be fine.â You blew him an air kiss as you exited the car, heading into the first bar of the night. Matt sat and watched you show your ID to the man at the door, waiting until he saw you get inside safely to drive away.
As promised, Matt arrived at Cooper's around 12:45. He was thankful that you and your friends chose to end your nights at a bar that wasnât too crazy, but also not too crowded that he might be recognized. Just to be safe he threw on a hat to shield his face as much as he could, though the bar was so dark he doubted anyone would be able to make out his face in the crowd.
He handed his ID to the bouncer before making his way inside. He texted you a simple âIâm hereâ, you would know his typical meeting place and where to go. You were in the restroom when Matt texted, quickly replying âbathroom, be right outâ before you sighed as you stared blankly at the wall. The line in the girls restroom always 100 times longer than it was for the guys.
Matt didnât mind waiting, he checked some scores on his phone. Assuming that the line was long since girls love to use the buddy system when going to the bathroom. He scanned the crowd and enjoyed people watching, nodding his head and smiling softly as your friends gave him a wave from across the bar. He checked the time again, before glancing over towards the hallway to find you pushing past a crowd of girls to exit the restrooms. He chuckled to himself as he saw the frustration on your face, knowing you probably waited 20 minutes just to pee. He started to walk towards you but fell back as he noticed a guy stop you in your tracks.
âCan I help you?â You looked at the man a bit confused, youâd recognized him from the crowd of people, but hadnât interacted with him much. He was out with a group of guys for someoneâs birthday. You only knew that because they mentioned it to you and your friends at least 30 times. Definitely trying to help the birthday boy get laid. âI noticed youâd left your friends, I thought maybe my shot at getting to buy you a drink was gone.â You chuckled to yourself, why does this have to happen in front of Matthew?
âOh, yeah, Iâm actually on my way out. So, maybe another time. Sorry.â You try to excuse yourself but he moves with you, cutting you off. âOh come on, one more drink isnât gonna hurt anyone. Or if you want we could go somewhere else, just the two of us and get a drink.â He had a cocky grin on his face as you looked at him in disgust. He was clearly drunk, and wasnât keen on taking no for an answer. You looked at Matt standing just a few feet away, a concerned look on his face as he wasnât sure what was going on.
âLook, Iâm not interested, okay?â He scoffed as he seemed to be a bit insulted by your comment. âNot interested, you and your friends were dancing right up against our group all night. I saw the way you were eyeing all of us guys, Iâd say you were interested sweet heart.â You gagged at the smell of alcohol on his breath as he got closer to you. âYeah news flash buddy, itâs a small fucking bar. My option was dancing right next to people or on the bar.â
As you tried walking past him to get to Matt, you felt a tight grip on your wrist pull you back, âThat sounds hot, can you put on a show just for me?â His hands attempted to grab more than just your wrists but before you could react Matt was already stepping in, pulling the guy away from you and pinning him to the wall by the collar of his shirt. âDonât you dare fucking touch her like that.â
You were a bit taken aback at the way Matt stepped in. Sure heâd protected you from dumb drunk guys before, but never like this. His jaw clenched as his grip tightened on the collar of the manâs shirt. âAnd what the fuck are you gonna do about it huh? What are you her little brother or something? Ainât no way youâre banging a bitch like that.â Mattâs grip tightened on his collar as he pushed him harder into the wall, âwhat did you just call her?!â His voice louder, drawing a bit of attention, thankfully none yet from the bouncer.
âA bitch, and what are you gonna do about it?â The drunk dumbass laughed in Mattâs face and you knew this wouldnât end well.
Before you could step in, Mattâs fist connected with the guy's jaw, causing him to stumble to the floor. Before pulling himself together and running off to the restroom.
âFuck!â
Matt shook his hand as he winced, immediately realizing he fucked up but his anger got the best of him. âCome on, letâs get out of here.â You grabbed his arm and pulled him toward the door. Thank god no one seemed to really notice the altercation that just took place.
The walk to the car was quiet as Matt was still fuming, you simply climbed into the passenger in silence. He gripped the steering wheel tight with his good hand as he peeled out of the parking lot. You sat next to him, studying his face to see when it might be a good time to say something. Blue and purple started to appear across the knuckles on the hand that threw the punch as he let out a large sigh.
âIâm sorry.â
You let out a soft laugh as you rested a hand on his thigh, softly holding his bruised hand, careful not to hurt him. âSorry for what? You didnât do anything wrong? You stepped in as I wouldâve hoped you would the second that guy put his hands on me. Donât be sorry for that!â He seemed to relax at your touch, so you kept your hand on his, slowly brushing your thumb over his skin to attempt to calm him down.
The rest of the car ride was quiet, the two of you heading back to Mattâs apartment since he had to be up early for practice. You kept your eyes on him, studying the look on his face, wishing you were in his head to know what the heck he was thinking. He took your hand in his as you two walked through the quiet parking garage, then headed up the elevator.
You knew your way around his place, first going to his room to grab an oversized t-shirt to throw on before heading to the bathroom to take off your makeup. Matt was sweet enough to go out and buy you your own toiletries to keep at his place. Including your makeup remover and even your 4 step skincare routine.
Matt came to join you in the bathroom as you brushed your teeth. He smiled at the sight of you as he leaned against the wall: your hair in a messy bun, his oversized Seattle Thunderbirds t shirt covering you up enough while still giving him a good view of your legs. âWhat?â You chuckled as you tried not to choke on the tooth paste threatening to fall from your lips. He just shook his head, âJust glad nothing bad happened to you tonight. Iâm glad I was there.â He took your hand, his fingers fiddling with yours, âI just kept thinking what if i wasnât there, I couldnât handle it if anything wouldâve happened.â
You looked at him in the mirror, relief and exhaustion covered his face. âIâm really glad you were there too, but I really hope we donât end up with a possible scandal on our hands.â You started laughing as you exited the bathroom, Matthew following suit. âNew York Rangers rookie Matthew Rempe gets in a bar fight over a girl.â You spoke in a sarcastic newscaster voice as you made your way to the freezer, grabbing a bag of frozen peas to tend to Mattâs fist bearing the proof of his heroic actions at the bar.
Matt chuckled along with you before wincing at the feeling of the cold bag on his hand, âIf it happens, so be it, I was ready to knock that son of a bitch out after what he said to you.â You shot him a glare, âMatthew Rempe. Absolutely not, I am not worth you getting in trouble with the team because of a dumb bar fight.â He walked over to you, now the one shooting you a glare. His arms rested on either side of your waist as he gripped the edge of the counter. âY/n, yes you fucking are.â You shot him a look as he swiftly picked you up and sat you on the island in front of him. A cocky grin coming across his face at how caught off guard you were, gripping his biceps tight as his hands now moved to rest on your thighs. âIâd fight 20 guys at the bar if they put their hands on you and said shit like that guy tonight.â His tone now more serious, his smirk fading as you two stared at one another for what seemed like an hour. The voice in your head screaming at you, this is your what if moment. Take it or leave it, but it may never come again. What if heâs trying to confess his feelings, what if heâs trying to make a move but heâs too scared. What if you just beat him to the punch. What if-
Before your brain could even rationalize a thought or an action, you felt Mattâs lips crash into yours. His hands cupping your face as yours snaked up his neck to grab a handful of his hair. The kiss like fireworks and a weight being lifted off your shoulders all at once. He began to smile into the kiss, before pulling away with a slight laugh.
âOh yeah, thatâs exactly what every girl wants. The guys sheâs been dreaming of kissing to pull away laughing!â You rolled your eyes and frowned at him as a look of shock washed over his face. âBeen dreaming of kissing huh??? I knew it!â You immediately turned red, covering your face with your hands, though Matt found it extremely cute.
His hands gripping your thighs before lifting you off the counter, âItâs okay, i get it. Iâm sure thereâs lots of girls out there who dream of kissing me.â âMatt! Shut up!â You laughed as he carried you down the hall into his room, tossing you on the bed while he finally changed out of his jeans and sweatshirt. âHey, listenâŚif youâre interested, maybe we could work something out so that you can be the only girl who gets to kiss me from now on. How does that sound?â
You barely heard him, too busy staring as he stood in just his underwear in front of you. Your eyes tracing every detail of him before his laugh interrupted your thoughts. âDamn, one kiss and all of sudden youâre just head over heels huh?â You pull a pillow over your face out of embarrassment as you feel the bed sink beneath his weight. Matthew now hovering above you as he pulls the pillow away from your face.
He brushed some hair from your face as your fingers play with his chain hanging from his neck, âyou really want to kiss me and only me from now on?â You blushed as he shook his head laughing at you, âof course you goof! Thatâs all Iâve wanted for like the last 5 years, probably even longer!â You felt yourself trying to fight a smile, though you were sure your cheeks were bright red, letting Matt know you liked his response.
He laid next to you as you continued to play with his chain, now resting on his chest. His thumb tracing circles on your thigh as you smiled like a dork to yourself, your heart bursting with excitement that all your what ifs had come true.
âSo if I agree to this-â you say up, trying to pull a serious face as you looked down at him. His hands still glued to your thighs, as if he couldnât get enough of touching you now. âDo I get a cute custom Rempe jean jacket or something to wear to your games? Like I wanna be decked out and I want people to know that I'm the only girl youâre kissing from now on.â Matt rolled his eyes and laughed at your change of tone, as you babbled on and on about your âconditionsâ should you agree to this. But he loved the thought of you in a Rempe jacket at his games, getting to see afterwards and kiss you like crazy after a big win, to have you be his biggest fan cheering him on every night. Even though you already were, now it would be more special.
âListen.â
Matt cut you off as he pulled you into his lap, his hand pulling your face to his as he kissed you. This time the kiss was soft, as he took his time to really take in the feeling of finally getting to kiss you and be this close to you. âIf you be my girlfriend, Iâll get you whatever jacket you want, Iâll get you the best seats at the Garden for my games, you name it. Just make me the happiest guy ever and be my girlfriend!â You laughed at how he begged like a little kid who couldnât contain their excitement.
âYes-â you peppered his face with a hundred kisses, âMatthew Rempe, I would absolutely love to be your girlfriend.â
