New Fic coming vv soon!
If you are looking for a motorcycle/carshow Hyungwon fic- you have came to the right place.
I am not kidding to you guys when I say I wrote a Hyungwon fic from 3pm this evening to 3am almost 4am today. Although I did take a collective of a four break. I am being absolutely honest when I say it is completely self-indulgent. I'll give you some foreground rn. I always go to a car show with my dad in the winter/spring part of the year. It's huge, well sometimes he'll start talking to someone and brain has always imagined what'd be like to be with a s/o. And I always told myself I'd write a fic- and I've been saying that since I was kid. And finally motorcycle Hyungwon has reached levels of brain rot that are unimaginable so I can write them down. If you are reading this Kebbi- you know how bad it is. I am not joking. So, I have one last read over tomorrow with a clear mind and I'll be ready to post it. (I'll prolly cue it for 10:00 Monday Morning est tbh!)
I just wanted to let you know that it has not let me rest. I literally incorporated so many parts/aspects of it that I could, it's insane. Although, I tried not to make it pertain to me and tried to make it like the average person's favorite cars. So, I didn't include any of my favorite cars (I'm not kidding when I say I've been going to this car show since I was in a stroller) (If you are wondering two of my favorites are the Galaxie 500 and the 65' fast back mustangs). So this is vv reader friendly just absolutely self-indulgent if that makes any sense!
And I know some may not be as knowledgeable in cars, so I really tried to make it simple! I will include a foreword. So, like certain things are explained! If any other terms need to be explained, please send me an ask or a message. (Because some things I don't think need an explanation- may need one!)
Lastly, if I'm not careful my brain will make me continue to write this until I'm no longer on brain rot- but on brain dead.
#new fic soon!#idk i felt like an update would be nice#i absolutely rambled on about it#i'm just thankful i was able to pull myself away to read and eat ngl-#i got to listen to some new songs too which was nice not relevant but i got to say it somewhere-#literally i've been pushing myself to write and just have had horrible writer's block- until it hit me over the head countlessly this morn#ing- it's a writer's possession- i'm telling you-#anyways look forward to monday!#because there is no way I'll get up early enough to have this posted for tomorrow- esp considering it's 4 am...#h.one puts me through horrible fits of brain rot- last time i wrote about him i stayed up all night ofc it was partly cause it was due the#next day here- but also because he doesn't let me rest until i finish writing about him đ#i haven't written these many words in such a long time đ#kate rambles#rambles#fic update#and if you made it this far you get to know it's 5.5k+ :) my brain is insane#insane in the membrane- what do we do we swim~ ha ha hahaha swim#sorry i lost it there for a good second#anyways good night have a good day- i'll see you all later-

Well. As you can probably tell, I lied. I did have chapter 2 for Inkubus âmostly writtenâ, but then I decided to go with a different idea for chapter 2 so Iâve been writing new stuff. This will hopefully be done by the end of the weekend (itâs Saturday night at time of posting), but Iâm gonna err on the side of procrastination and give it until next weekend.
In case you were wondering, âoldâ ch2 was going to be a few months jump forward. âNewâ ch2 is pretty much a direct continuation. Iâll prob bump the old forward and add a ch3 to this, because there are some lines I like. And it should see the light of day.
#delete later#writing update#???#idk I felt like I should say something since I gave an eta and thatâs no longer accurate#it feels kinda weird giving an update#also Iâm almost to 70 followers and I donât know when this happened???#hello?#where did you all come from#thatâs not like A Lot but itâs a lot to me#idk maybe I should do something if I ever hit 100#probably not though#the most Iâd do would be like âpoll for which AU I should writeâ or w/e but thatâs not very exciting#I donât have merch and I wonât do coms and thatâs usually the options for follower milestones#these tags were supposed to be short#hereâs a snack if you made it down here đđ„€#oh also my ceiling light like. exploded.#not literally but it did spark-flash and now the bulb has a charred mark on the bottom#needless to say the filament is Gone and itâs not very bright in my room#desk lamp is my only friend#âïž I was going to give you a hot drink to go but thereâs no emoji for that#so you can keep this nice mug

the abandoned ship theme from pokemon ruby/sapphire/emerald is such a special theme to me... something about it just exudes nostalgia. i love it so very dearly
#when i was a little kid playing emerald for the first time#i have a really vivid memory of running around the place trying to find all its secrets for hours#i dont think i ever found all of them. lol#im a kid born in the age of the internet... i couldve looked it up at any time. i probably had the old family ipad like 10 feet from me tbh#but i didnt want to! i wanted to find all of it myself#something about the place just felt so alive to me.#a mystery for little baby bri to solve about the things that have been buried by time#i think the oras remasters of the song (both for sea mauville and southern island) are very nice. but.#i just dont think they could ever recapture that feeling the original evokes in me#you know that faithful remaster project for mother 3? where they try to remake the soundtrack using the most updated versions#of the same soundfont?#i would love one of those for rse... oras is nice but it just. idk something about the pure orchestra makes it lose something for me#bri talks

Hey, Kiki-Kit. Your customers are waiting!
Well, this is a painful post to make given the respect and admiration I had for her, but a long overdue one because I'm not alone in this mess and I refuse to let another fan fall for it when I could've said something!
Back in February, I bought a commission from Kiki-Kit. You may know that artist as she was one of the best in the Gravity Falls fandom back in the day and the illustrator of Don't Dimension It in Lost Legends.
She'd been running emergency commissions at the start of the year and I got one from her for $40 USD.
I have the invoice and everything saved and also messages with Kiki of us talking about the comm and me paying her. I owe nothing on my end money wise! I paid in full.
She said later she'd have them finished by around the end of March but come late April, still no response. So, I messaged her about it. Nothing odd I thought. I get things can happen and if Kiki is busy, at most she'd reply telling me it'll be a while longer and all's good.
But I got nothing. I messaged her, emailed her on the commissions email she had and tweeted at her. NOTHING! Turns out there were other people, including some friends of mine who had not heard back either. Then in June, Kiki made an update post explaining the situation.
Naturally I felt bad and wished her the best. She said iirc, she'd have the remaining comms done by the end of the Summer but here we are at the end of October and still nothing. I messaged her too again and no response.
You know, it's one thing if there's a reason for no response for a few days but then another when it's been months and still nothing. Oh and btw, I very much remember Kiki on Twitter liking tweets (back when Twitter let you see liked tweets) while I was there messaging her for an update. Real sus if you ask me.
But okay, I shouldn't rush it. Everyone has reasons to take time and maybe Kiki is just very busy and can't get back. She went through a very rough and difficult experience and I can understand and respect that. I'm more than happy to wait. But how long is too long without an update? Maybe a bit longer I guess. Art takes time.
Well, IDK about you all, but I don't remember any other Gravity Falls fan artist taking oh, idk...FIVE YEARS TO FINISH A COMMISION AND STILL NOT RESPOND!!
FoxieSkullzArtz on Twitter made me aware she has been waiting since 2019 for Kiki to respond to a commission they paid her for.
2019!!
I'm not an artist, so forgive me if I'm wrong. But I don't think it should take any artist 5 years to make a commission and even if, at least communicate with the person who paid you about it so they're not left guessing.
Oh, and it gets worse. I got another person who let me know they've been waiting since 2020 for a comm and Kiki handled it far worse!
Oh yeah, she blocked them for asking about it!
And okay, even if we give Kiki-Kit the benefit of the doubt and assume she has reasons to not communicate with people and maybe even assume people messaging her are being mean about it, then why not refund them? Nice or bad, you were paid by them to do something but also have the power to deny it and refund their money. And yet, Kiki did not even do that. And even if we be super kind and assume everyone is lying, I'm still here.
I paid Kiki-Kit $40USD for a comm I thought I would get in late March and it's now late October and still nothing. And even if you don't wanna believe me cause you can't believe an artist like Kiki-Kit would do this and assume I'm after clout (which would be odd, given why would I take pleasure in calling out an artist I respected)...well, there's gonna be someone else who says this too. And people have been saying this for years and she still is getting away with it!
It's disappointing honestly. Kiki-Kit is a name so many in this fandom know and love. And I love her art too. She's a fan artist who got to be on Lost Legends. We all celebrated that in 2018 and still remember it. And I know how hard it may be to hear this, but it has to be said.
I do not like having to do this, but I have a platform that can get this message across further than others could and having been someone who lost money to her too, I know first hand what all these people have been through.
And before you say "Kiki was going through a rough time in her life. Why are you blaming her? Be patient and she'll get your stupid art done," read over everything again. I'm not saying Kiki-Kit needs to be making art 24/7 and fulfilling these comms. I'm not saying she isn't allowed to be offline and not finish things on time for reasons out of her control. What I'm saying is that she hasn't communicated properly with anyone here who paid her and has continued to accept more and more commissions from people despite not finishing ones she has backlogs of.
When an artist opens commissions, why do you think they have slots or only accept a few? Because they know they can get that many done in a certain time or know anymore will take longer. And even if it took longer, at least they give updates. I bought a commission for the interview with Alex Hirsch and got it both on time and with proper communication from the artist.
And even if you disagree with all this, be honest with yourself...is making someone wait since 2019 or 2020 for a comm and not responding to them really something still worth defending?
I'm not here to cancel anyone. I don't want Kiki-Kit's reputation to be that of an scammer who stole money from people. But she's painted herself that way to far too many people who have been warning about this for ages but no one either saw or listened to them.
I tried to be nice and messaged Kiki-Kit over and over for an update and she never responded. I had friends who she took money from who similarly have not heard anything back! If you know Kiki directly, tell her to reach out to these people and all the ones she has taken money from and not gotten back to and either refund them or commit to finishing their commissions. Please don't be rude or hostile either though, given despite it all, she is still a person like your or me who deserves a chance to make things right.
I wanna believe Kiki-Kit has just made some negligent mistakes and isn't the best with time management or communication. I mean, I'm not the best either. But I'm not asking people for money for something and then not getting back to them with it. I'm sorry to everyone who is learning about this who saw Kiki in a positive light and I'm sorry also to everyone like me who lost money to her.
I hope if nothing else, Kiki will respond and make whole everyone she has taken money from. If she really cares about this fandom that put her on a pedestal high enough that Alex Hirsch himself picked her to work on his book, she can respond to us and fulfill what we paid her to do.
I'm not asking for my commission to be done tomorrow...I just want an update. That's all. We all do! No more stalling, @kiki-kit. Please respond to us now!
Sincerely,
Every person who has paid you for a commission and has yet to hear back from you and every Gravity Falls fan who your work inspired and are now having to learn this about you!

hey girlyyyyy could you maybe write for Tim Bradford from the rookie and like the reader is his rookie and while theyâre on patrol they run into someone who knows the readerâs abusive ex bf and he makes threats against reader and after their shift reader is super scared so he escorts them home and stays with them idk just an idea đ
Nightlight || Tim Bradford x reader
â ËïœĄâàšà§Ë masterlist âą john nolan fic  âËïœĄâàšà§â
summary: when you encounter a man while on patrol who has a threatening message from your ex, your TO, Tim, offers to spend the night with you
word count:Â 10.4k
warnings: abusive past relationship, reader kind of has a panic attack, mild language, blood, guns, inaccurate police stuff
a/n: ahhh i had so much fun writing this, love!! i took your idea and also added some stuff so i hope you like what i did. i also apologize for the length, i kinda went wild. i imagine this to take place in s1. fem!reader. enjoy!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~°~âŠ~°~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   â7-Adam-19, armed shoplifter, Radcliffe Complex, 718 Oscar Road. Respond.â
   The dispatcherâs voice filled the silence of the car.
   â7-Adam-19 responding.â Officer Bradford set down the radio and replaced his hand on the steering wheel.
   âWhatâs the most important thing to remember when dealing with an armed shoplifter, Boot?â Tim asked you after a moment.Â
   âWhy did I think that when I was in short-sleeves I would get a break from your Tim Tests?â you muttered. Â
   Youâd been Bradfordâs rookie for seven months now and some days he still treated you like it was your first day on the force. You appreciated him trying to teach you so thoroughly, but did he have to be so Tim all the time?
   âIs that your answer, Boot?âÂ
   âNo, um, I guess it would be that heâs armed. But no, thatâs too obvious for you. Ok, what about what theyâre stealing? Their physical state? Keeping their hands in sight at all times?â
   Tim sighed, looking bored. âWrong. Itâsââ
   âSuspect on the move, heading east on Apple Boulevard,â came the dispatcherâs update, interrupting your TOâs answer.
   âLooks like weâre headed east,â Tim said, turning sharply in the direction youâd just come from.Â
   âSaved by the suspect,â you joked.Â
   âDonât think this is over,â Tim narrowed his eyes at the road. âLessons donât stop for crime.â
   âOk, batman.â
   Tim glared at you.
   âI mean, Sir.â
   After youâd first been assigned to Officer Bradford, youâd been told stories of his ruthless training style. Your first thought was that you needed to impress him from day one.
   Well, technically your first thought was damn, because youâd have to be insane not to notice how objectively attractive he was. But youâd quickly quelled that thoughtâcrushing on your TO was not how you wanted to start your career as an officer.Â
   So, impressing him was your second thought. And you had been more than a little terrified of not impressing him.Â
   You would be lying if you said that wasnât how things still were between you two, to a degreeâyou trying to prove yourself and him making it as difficult as possible.Â
   But, at least after several months, you felt like your TO trusted you more.Â
   âThere!â You pointed to a man running down the street, duffel bag in hand.
   Tim hit the gas, surpassing the suspect, and skidding to a stop in front of him, effectively cutting him off.Â
   You both hurried out of the car, weapons drawn on the man who was currently aiming his gun back and forth, between you and Bradford.Â
   âPolice! Drop your weapon!â Tim shouted at the man.Â
   The man hesitated, seeming to be weighing his optionsâhow easily he could take out two cops.Â
   âSet the weapon down, nice and easy,â Tim ordered, his own gun still pointed at the suspect.â
   The man, seeming to sense the inevitability of his capture, sighed and set his gun on the ground.Â
   âThe answer was dialogue, by the way,â Tim addressed you, his eyes still on the suspect. âDialogue is the most important thing when dealing with an armed suspect.â
   âGood to know,â you acknowledged, before ordering the man in front of you. âHands behind your head, interlace your fingers.â
   The manâs gaze shot to you as he obeyed your commands.Â
   âHey, lady cop, you look familiar,â the criminal squinted at you.Â
   âYou must have me mistaken for someone else,â you said. Youâd never seen this man in your life.Â
   âI swearââ
   âHands on the car!â You orderedÂ
   The man reluctantly did what he was told, placing his palms on the side of the shop.Â
   âWait a minute,â the man sized you up before smirking slowly. âYour Paul Cranstonâs girl, ainât ya?â
   You felt your blood instantly run cold at the name.Â
   âYou must have me mistaken for someone else,â you said again, robotically, grabbing one of his arms.Â
   âNo, no Iâd recognize that pretty face anywhere,â the criminal whispered. âHe told me all about you. Hey, why donât you let me go and Iâll give you a friendly tip?â
   You responded by twisting his arm behind his back even harder.
   He winced. âSo you didnât hear then? Paulâs out.â
   No. That couldnât be true. Paul wasnât supposed to be out forâ
   âBoot, you going to cuff him or not?â Tim called impatiently.
   âRight.â You shook off the stupor and began handcuffing the suspect. Your mind was still on that name, however, and your reflexes were slowed.
   Which is how the suspect was able to rip his arm from your grip and shove you to the ground as he tried to make a break for it.Â
   Tim tackled him almost immediately, wrestling him into the cuffs that were dangling on one of his wrists where you had started to restrain him, and pushing him towards the shop.
   âWait, Paulâs got a message for you!â the man hurried out, looking only at you as Tim waked over and shoved him into the backseat. âHe said you best watch yourself, because he has connections, and he still hasnât gotten his revenge. Heâs outâand heâs coming for you.â
   âThatâs enough, get in the car.â Tim slammed the door shut, and the echo of it rang in your ears as the manâs words played over and over again.
   Heâs out, and heâs coming for you.Â
   âWhat the hell was that?âÂ
   You looked up to Bradfordâs questioningâand furiousâface. He offered you a hand and you took it, standing up to face him.Â
   âSorry, Iââ
   ââSorryâ doesnât stop criminals from escaping,â Tim shouted. âGet your head in the game. You do want to be a cop, donât you, Boot?â
   âYes, sir.â
   So much for Tim trusting you. You couldnât believe youâd almost just let a suspect get away. That had never happened to you before. But, that nameâ
   Your TO shook his head, walking to the drivers side and opening the door. âYou know, I should write you up for that.â
   You noticed his wording. âBut youâre not going to?â
   He waited for you to get into the passenger seat before saying,Â
   âI didnât say that. First youâre going to tell me what just happened between you two.â
   You flinched. âItânothing. It was nothing.â
   âUh-huh. It didnât sound like nothing. Whoâs Paul Cranston?âÂ
   You swallowed hard. âHeâs just someone I used to know.â
   A million images flashed through your head. Paulâs face looming over you. The flashing lights and sirens. Waking up in the hospital.Â
   You shook yourself out of it. You didnât want to talk about this now. You swore youâd never talk about it again. âShouldnâtâshouldnât we get back to the station. Donât we have to book this guy?â
   Tim sighed, started the car, and re-entered traffic. You breathed a sigh of relief.Â
   âControl, this is 7-Adam-19. I need an ID on a Paul Cranston,â Tim spoke into his radio.Â
   And so much for not talking about this now.
   âCan you do that without suspicion of a crime?â You asked him.
   âYou can when dispatch loves you.â He winked at you.Â
   You rolled your eyes at him as the radio began speaking.Â
   âPaul Cranston: caucasian male, date of birth 8/4/92, recently released on parole, history of theft and domestic violence.âÂ
   Tim turned his gaze to you. âHow do you know this man, Boot?â
   âItâsâa long story,â you told him.Â
   âWell then you better start talking if you want to finish before we reach the station,â Tim commanded, making a left turn.
   âCanât you just let it go?â You asked him. âItâs really not that big of a deal.â
   Heâs out, and heâs coming for you.Â
   You couldnât fight the shiver that racked your body.Â
   Timâs eyes flicked to you, before returning back to the road. Suddenly, he slammed on the brakes, shifting the car into park before turning to you.Â
   âIf this is another one of your âIâm dying, where are weâ testsââ
   âBoot, focus,â Tim barked.Â
   âWith all due respect, sir, I donât think itâs really any of your concern ifââ
   âOf course itâs my concern!â Tim shouted. His expression was so intense, you squirmed under his gaze and you felt your face heat.Â
   He looked torn for a moment, before sighing and saying, âItâs my job as your TO to train you to the best of my abilities, and I canât do that if youâre withholding information that may affect your performance as an officer.â
   âFine,â you breathed. âIt was a long time ago. I was 18, Paul and I met freshman year of college. We started dating and things were fine, good even, for a while.â
   âUntil?â Tim prompted.
   âUntil he got pissed one night because I caught him coming home really late with a ski mask and a bag full of stolen cash. Cliche, right?â
   You looked to Tim, but his expression was as stony as ever and you continued.
   âApparently, heâd been stealing since high school and turns out heâd lied to me about working in retail and a whole bunch of other stuff. I threatened to call the police if he didnât stop andââ
   You took a deep breath, steeling yourself.
You watched the houses and trees and cars pass by as you drove towards the station.Â
   ââand he hit me. It didn't stop after thatâonce he knew he could get away with it. He said if I ever told anyoneâabout the robberies, the beatingsâthat heâd kill me. And I let him go on like that for months. I was so scared that if I called anyone, heâd make good on his promise.â
   Timâs grip on the steering wheel tightened, his fingers turning white, but he didnât speak.
   âBut then, one night, it got so bad that I thought he might actually kill me anyway. So I waited until he left the room for a minute and I called 911. He was arrested andâand thatâs all I remember before I blacked out. I woke up in the hospital the next morning.â
   You kept your voice even, trying not to let the emotion show through your story. You were just recounting facts. This was almost 10 years ago, and youâd moved on with your life.Â
   But reliving it all was hard, even after so much time had passed.Â
   âItâs actually why I joined the academy,â you finished. âI wanted to save people, the way the officers that night did for me.â
   You were both silent for a moment.Â
   A muscle in Timâs jaw ticked. âDoes the department know?â
   âYeah,â you sighed. âItâs all part of my file.â
   âAnd the guy back there?âÂ
   You shrugged, glancing back at the suspect and lowering your voice. âHe must be one of Paulâs partners or goons orâI donât know. I guess heâs been in contact with him since he was released, if he knows what I look like.â
   The thought made your skin crawl.Â
   âI donât know what came over me,â you kept going. âItâs been years, I justâI didnât expect to hear about him out of the blue from a criminal on the street, you know? But, I promise it wonât happen again.â
   Tim ignored that. âDo you think it was an empty threat?â
   âI donât know,â you admitted. âBut I sure as hell hope so.â
   Bradford was silent for a long moment, his expression tense.
   The radio crackled to life. â7-Adam-19, we have a 215 in progress near your area, 239 West Armston Street. Respond.âÂ
   âNegative,â Bradford answered the dispatch call.Â
   You stared at him, shocked. âWhy arenât we taking that? We can drop this guy off afterwards.â
   âYeah, I agree,â the suspect chimed in from the backseat. âI think you should take that first.â
   Tim payed him no attention. âTheyâll have someone else over there in minutes. We have more important things to do.â
   âYouâre not even going to ask me if I know what a 215 is?â You joked. Tim never passed up an opportunity to quiz you.Â
   âWhatâs a 215, Boot?âÂ
   âCarjacking.â
   âCorrect.â Tim nodded. âAnd weâre going to have a talk with Sergeant Grey.â
âË â§ âżïž”âżàšà§âżïž”⿠⧠âË
  âPaul Cranston, released on parole from a thirteen year sentence three days ago, currently believed to be residing in the Woodland Hills area.â
   You sat in the briefing room, surrounded by other officers, as Sergeant Grey read out your ex-boyfriendâs file. You stared into Paulâs face on the screen, his mugshot visible from all angles.Â
   Bradford stood near the front of the room, leaning against the wall.Â
   âThe department is aware of Officer (Y/l/n)âs history with Mr. Cranston,â Grey continued. âAnd will take necessary action should the situation progress.â
   âSo, whatâs the course of action here?â Tim crossed his arms.Â
   âIâm afraid, as of now, there isnât one,â Grey said. âSince there is no direct proof against Paul Cranston, weâd essentially be taking the word of a petty thief and wasting resources on what most likely was a desperate attempt to escape arrest. The department doesnât exactly consider it a threat.â
  âDoesnât consider it a threat?â Timâs voice was low and dangerous. âHow about a charge for threatening an officer?â
  âBut Paul didnât threaten an officer,â you sighed, thinking. âThe armed robbery suspect did.â
   âExactly, Officer (Y/l/n),â Grey agreed. âBasically, our hands are tied.â
   âThen untie them,â Bradford snapped, beginning to pace. âThereâs gotta be some technicality we can get him on. Violation of parole, conspiring with a felon, failure toââ
   âThatâs enough, Officer Bradford,â The sergeant fixed your TO with a firm look. âI appreciate your concern for (Y/l/n)âs safety, but weâve done all we can do. And, for now, thatâs nothing.â
   Timâs concern for your safety. That thought had been in the back of your mind since the ride to the station. You couldnât figure out why Tim was so determined about this. You supposed you were his rookie and was his job to look out for you. It was just, up until now, he hadnât exactly done anything to make you believe heâd care so much.
   âFailure to take action could be endangering one of our officers,â Tim said, his jaw clenched. âWhoâs to say this guy wonât make good on his threat? At least increase security at (Y/l/n)âs residence.â
   âTim, its fine,â you said, your voice firm. âLet it go.âÂ
   They were making a big enough deal about this already. It probably was just a case of a criminal trying anything to get free. You doubted Paul even cared about what happened to you anymore. He probably never wanted to see you againâand that was a good thing.Â
   But, then, you couldnât get those words out of your head.
   Heâs out and heâs coming for you.
   Bradford turned to you, his chest rising and falling. He looked soâŠresolved. Like he did when chasing down a suspect or that time when youâd walked in on him in the training rooms.
   Images of Tim shirtless, the muscles in his back tight as he pushed himself harder filled your head and you quickly shook them away. Definitely not the time.Â
  âWeâll send a surveillance team to Paulâs location in the morning,â Grey said, turning to address you. âBut for now the best thing you can do is to go home, get some sleep, and not let this rattle you. Understood?â
   âYes, Sergeant.â
   âGood. Because the last thing the L.A.P.D needs is a cop who lets their personal life get in the way of their ability to do their job in any way thatâs less than exemplary. I trust thatâs not the case?âÂ
   You glanced to Bradford, certain he was going to mention your mistake with the suspect earlier.Â
   âNo, Sir,â Tim said instead. âMy rookies donât do âless than exemplaryâ. Donât worry about (Y/l/n)âsheâs proved to me she has what it takes to be an officer.â
   âGlad to hear it. Shift over. Everybody else, back to work,â Sergeant Grey waved everyone away.Â
   You walked towards the front of the room, hearing grumbled complaints about midnight shift from the unlucky officers who still had to do patrol as you did so.Â
   You stopped in front of your TO. His eyes were on you, his brow drawn in something that looked like concern.
   âThanks,â you said. You couldnât believe heâd told Grey all thatâit was the most complimentary thing heâd said about you in your whole time riding with him.Â
   âI didnât say anything that wasnât true,â Tim stated, shrugging. âI expect you to live up to any praise Iâve given you.â
   âYes, sir,â you nodded, almost smiling.
   âBesides, youâre being trained by me. Youâd have to be royally screwed up not to become one of the best on the force.â
   âAnd heâs humble too,â you teased. âBut Iâm going to take that as a compliment.â
   âWhatever, Boot.â Tim smiled, shaking his head.Â
   âBe nonchalant all you want,â you said, feeling brave. âI know you like me.â
   For a brief moment, Tim looked like youâd slapped him. But then, the flash ofâwhatever that wasâwas gone and his expression was replaced by one of cold indifference.Â
   âIn your TO not your friend, (Y/l/n),â he stated. âItâs not about liking you. Itâs about training you.â
   You sighed inwardly. Just when you thought you were making ground with Tim, he treated you like youâd just met. âOf course, how could I forget.â
   Tim stayed silent.Â
  âWell, I should head out,â you told him, âIâve got a busy night ahead me. You know, trying not to get killed by my ex and all.â
   Youâd meant it as a joke, to make light of the situation that left you feeling more uneasy than youâd care to admit. Tim, however, just shook his head and brushed past you, out of the briefing room.Â
   You stood there for a moment, trying to work through what had just happened, before turning around and taking a step in the other direction. Only to find Officers Lopez and Bishop standing in front of you, staring between you and Timâs retreating figure.Â
   âSo howâd you do it?â Bishop looked you up and down.
   âDo what?â You asked, confused.Â
   âGet Tim wrapped around your finger,â Lopez answered for her, smirking.Â
   You felt your eyes widen. âTimâs notââÂ
   âPlease,â Lopez put her hands on her hips. âIâve watched him train dozens of rookies and heâs never stood up for any of them like that. So naturally I figured youâre either blackmailing him or sleeping with him.â
   You blanched, feeling the heat rush to your cheeks as you let what Angela said sink in. You knew she was just teasing you, but the statement caught you off guard. You imagined you and Timâtogether. It wasnât necessarily an unpleasant thought. And then you realized what you were thinking and you chided yourself, hurriedly un-imagining it.Â
   âNo, thatâs notâneither one of those things,â you answered quickly. âTrust me, Tim doesnât give me any special treatment, if thatâs what youâre implying. I actually canât tell if he hates me half of the time.â
   âWeâre not implying anything,â Bishop replied. âOnly observing. And he doesnât hate you.â
   âHow can you possibly know that?â You were suddenly insecure. You still held on to a secret dread that you were going to wildly disappoint Timâthat you already had. Sure, there was all the stuff he had just said. But there was also months of him being hard on you and saying that you werenât friends.Â
   âBecause Iâve seen him hate plenty of people,â Bishop spoke. âAnd he definitely didnât look at them the way he looks at you.â
   The way Tim looked at you? You werenât aware he looked at you in a way that was different from the way he looked at anyone else at the station.
   âWhat are you guys trying to say?â You asked them.Â
   âIâm saying watch out,â Bishop raised an eyebrow. âBecause Tim might like you more than heâs willing to let youâor himselfâin on.â
   Could there be any truth to what the two officers were saying? Was it wrong for a small part of you to hope there was?
   âUm, ok,â you said, blinking. âIâll keep that in mind, thanks.â
   âDonât believe us if you want, itâs your call,â Bishop shrugged, backing up. âBut Iâm telling you, you mean something to Tim that the rest of us can only guess at.â
   And with that she walked out of the room.
  âBishop can be intense,â Angela said when the woman was out of earshot. âSheâs got that whole âanti-cops-datingâ thing going onâbut I do think sheâs right about this. Timâs tough, and Iâm sure he gives you hellâbut itâs not because he doesnât like you. I actually think itâs quite the opposite. â
   Was there really something that everyone saw between you and Tim except for you? You still couldnât even entertain the thought that Tim had feelings for you that were more than TO and rookie.Â
   âWell youâve certainly left me with a lot to think about,â you said finally.
   âThen Iâll let you start thinkingâyouâre welcome for the peace of mind.âÂ
   You wouldnât have used the phrase peace of mind, yourself. Sure, it was nice to know that the officers who had known your TO for years were confident that he didnât look down on you. But, this conversation also had left your head swimming with conflicting thoughts about Tim that you didnât feel like dealing with right now.
   âAnd take care,â Lopez said knowingly. âWe have your back if anything happens.â
   With that, your thoughts slammed back to the current situation.
  âRight, that. Youâyou think somethingâs going to happen?â You asked, trying to sound casual.
   âI think in this job we have to be prepared for the worst,â she corrected. âBut I also think that bastard would have to be pretty stupid to mess with you.â
   She smiled at you and you smiled back. After watching her leave, you followed her path, heading towards the locker rooms.
   You thought about what she had said about you and Tim, about Paul.
   You hoped she was rightâyou just couldnât say which you hoped she was more right about.
âË â§ âżïž”âżàšà§âżïž”⿠⧠âË
   Your thoughts bounced between your conversation with Talia and Angela and the message from your ex as you walked to your car minutes later.Â
   When you woke up this morning, you thought the most stressful part of your day wouldâve been a police chase or a shootout. You never wouldâve expected it to be my ex-boyfriend is out of jail and could be hunting me down and my training officer might have feelings for me.
   Funny how things could change so fast.
   Suddenly, you heard a bang. You spun around quickly, your heart in your throat. But it was only a car door being slammed shut from across the parking lot.Â
   Get a grip, you told yourself.Â
   You rounded the corner, running a hand through your hair.
   You stopped. Tim was leaning against the side of your car, arms crossed in front of his chest. He looked you up and down.
   âWhat are you doing?â You asked.Â
   âDriving you home, Boot,â Tim said. âGet in the car.â
   âTim, you donât have toââ
   âThat wasnât a question, give me the keys.â
   There was no point in fighting him. Besides, there was a small part of you that didnât really want to fight him.Â
   You tossed him the keys to your car and got in the passenger seat with a sigh. Â
   Tim started the engine.Â
   âIf this is about Paul, this really isnât necessary,â you said after youâd been driving for several minutes and the silence became too much. âI can handle myself. I am an officer, in case you forgot.â
   âYouâre a rookie,â Tim corrected, eyes never leaving the road. âAnd if the department wonât do anything, then I will.â
   âWhatâweâre not going to go looking for him, are we?â You asked.
   âOf course not,â Tim scoffed. âIâm not a vigilante, Boot. Where do you live?â
   âTake a left at the light,â you guided.Â
   Neither of you talked for the remainder of the drive, save your occasional directions. When you pointed out your apartment building, Tim parked the car and handed you the keys.Â
   âThanks,â you mumbled to him as you got out of the car, grabbing your bag and heading towards the building.
   You heard a door shut behind you and turned to find your TO standing on the sidewalk, an eyebrow raised.
   âYou didnât think I was just going to let you spend the night alone with a target on your head, did you, Boot?âÂ
   âTimââ
   âNo more protests,â he said firmly. âAs your TO, Iââ
   âNo, I was just going to say that if you were planning on staying here, why couldnât I have just driven my own car?â
   âI donât let my rookies drive,â Tim walked past you and to the front door. âEven off-duty.â
   You followed him quickly, getting out your key and letting you both in.
   When you reached your apartment you did a quick scan of the spaceâit wasnât exactly like youâd been expecting company, much less your training officer. You cringed at the messiness.
   âHow many entrances and exits are there?â Bradford asked.Â
   âUm, just the front door. And thereâs windows in the kitchen and the bedroom,â you said.Â
   You skimmed past everything in the place, looking towards the window in your bedroom. Your eye caught on one of your bras hanging from your bedpost. You quickly ran over and shut the door, blushing and hoping Tim hadnât noticed.
   âPlease, Boot,â Tim made a face. âItâs nothing I havenât already seen before.â
   âOk no offense, but I usually donât let guys see my bra the first time I bring them to my place,â you joked.
   âIf thatâs an offer, Iâm going to have to politely decline.â
   âWhatâno,â you hurried out, worried your voice sounded wrong. âI just meantââ
  Tim interrupted. âIâm going to do a sweep of the place, make sure everythingâs as it should be.â
   âIs that really needed?â
   âIâm not taking any chances.â He left the room and you sunk down onto the couch, letting your bag fall to the floor.Â
   Your TO returned a few minutes later. âAll clear.â
   âSee, everythingâs fine,â you said, speaking just as much to yourself as you were to Tim.Â
   âWell,â Bradford started, amusement in his eyes. âI wouldnât say everything is fine. Your storage closetâs a fire hazard.â
   Had Tim Bradford just made a joke?
   âIâll be sure not to exit through the closet in the events of a fire,â you said sarcastically. âAnd if you keep insulting my living space, Iâm going to be forced to kick you out.â
   âBold for someone whose career I could end.â
   âYou canât end my career for that,â you shot back. Paused. âCan you?â
   Tim raised his eyebrows.
   âOnly one way to find out,â you said enthusiastically, teasing him now. âIâll see you tomorrow. Donât let the closet trap you on the way out.
   âNice try, Boot. But youâre still stuck with me for,â Tim checked his watch. âeight hours.â
   âNine hours,â you corrected. You had to leave for work in nine hours.
   âYouâre right, I should get us drinks,â Tim joked.
   You rolled you eyes and he shot you a look. âHelp yourself to anything in the fridge.â
   Tim got up, disappearing into the kitchen. Â
   âIs all you own ginger ale, Boot?â He called.Â
   âThereâs six year old tequila in the cupboard,â you suggested.
   âGinger ale it is.â
   Tim joined you in the living room again, carrying two bottles. He handed one to you, sitting down on the opposite side of the couch.Â
   You noted the careful distance he put between you.Â
   âWhatâs this thing made of, Boot? Plywood?â Tim asked, inspecting the couch.
   You smothered a laugh.
   âGet comfortable. Itâs where youâre sleeping,â you answered.Â
   âWonât be necessary. If youâre not awake youâre not aware.â
   âSo, what, weâre taking shifts on guard like this is a stakeout?â You asked.
   âDonât be ridiculous. I didnât come here to sleep.â
   âTim I canât let you stay up all night while Iâm unconscious.â you sighed.
   âYou can if itâs an order. Besides, no offense, but rookies are historically less vigilant and have a slower response timeâŠâÂ
   You tried not to take offense at that. âRight, Eagle Eye.â
   Tim glared at you.Â
   âAngela told me.â
   âOf course she did. And at least I didnât leave valuable evidence on the street to chase after a dog wearing a top hat.â
   âSparky couldâve been involved in the crime,â you said, indignant. âAnd that was one time!â
   âOne time too many,â Tim mumbled, lifting the bottle to his lips, his eyes sparkling.Â
   âOk, so when you were a rookie you were, what, perfect?â You shot back.
   âDamn straight.â Tim nodded.Â
   âYou made no mistakes, at all?â You prompted.
   âWell,â Tim took a sip of his drink. âThere was one thing.â
   âAside from the graffiti incident?â
   âThat wasnât a mistake because it wasnât my fault. I was following direct orders andâyou know what, never mind. If you donât want to hear itââ
   âNo, no, I do!â you scooted towards the edge of your seat in anticipation. âAnd none of that âI worked too hard and too efficientlyâ crap.â
   âWouldnât dream of it,â he said sarcastically. âMy first week on the job I was put on paperwork duty, which wasââ
   âBoring and tedious? I can imagine,â you deadpanned, having been put in charge of paperwork by Tim many times.
   âI was going to say necessary and a valuable skill to have,â Bradford corrected. âBut anyways, we had just got done booking a couple suspects and I was working on the reports. A triple homicide and a prostitution case. It was a long day and I was tired and I guess I got sloppyââ
   âYou? Sloppy?â You interrupted.
   âDo you want me to tell you this story or not?â
   âRight, sorry. Continue.â
   Tim did. âIâd just finished tagging the evidence for both cases and when I was filling everything out I somehow got the numbers mixed up. Long story short, according to my report, the homicide gun ended up being linked to the prostitution case and the weapon allegedly used in the triple homicide wasâŠa pair of pink, fluffy handcuffs.â
   You couldnât stop the laugh that escaped you now.
   âForensics caught it before it was sent to the judge, thank god,â Bradford sighed. âBut the next day when I was getting ready for my shift, I was greeted by dozens of similar handcuffs in my lockerâapparently Smitty has a guy.â
   âTell me you kept them,â you begged, pulling your knees up to your chest.
   âOf course not!â
   Tim blinked.
   âWell, not all of themâIsabel made me take a pair home. I found out later that she was the one who orchestrated the whole prank. She used to do stuff like that all the time before she, uh,ââ
   âTimââ
   Youâd heard about Bradfordâs ex-wife. How sheâd become an addict, gotten herself mixed up with bad people. You knew how much it had affected Tim, even if he hadnât said so.Â
   She was in rehab now, getting her life back together. You were glad she was finally getting the help she needed. Still, you knew how much she meant to Tim. How much it had hurt him to move on from her and let her start a new life without him.Â
   âIâm fine.â Tim said firmly, clearing his throat. âItâs good to talk about herâŠbefore. Sheâs on the right path now.â
   You stared at the ground in front of you, picking at your fingernails.Â
   âAre you still in love with her?â The question was out of your mouth before you could stop it. You didnât know why you askedâdidnât know why you cared what the answer was. Ten minutes ago you wouldnât have even dared to ask that question. Â
   But he was being so uncharacteristically open and you seemed to be getting along well. You reluctantly brought your eyes up to Tim.
   His eyes had gone wide. He looked like he wanted to leave or yell at you or both, and you immediately regretted it.
   But then his eyes softened and he opened his mouth. âNo. Iâll always care about her and sheâll always be someone that I did love. But relationships changeâpeople change.â
   You nodded. âI get itâI mean, Iâm kind of rusty on relationshipsâbut I get it. I actually havenât dated anyone since Paul. I guess it was just hard to trust someone after that. I kind of sabotaged any relationship that had any chance of starting.â
   It was the first time youâd admitted that to anyone. You wouldnât have pegged Tim as being so easy to talk to. You had almost forgotten about the whole Paul situation before youâd just brought him up. You had been enjoying hanging out with Tim, no matter the circumstances. He was actually pleasant to be around when he wasnât on the clock.Â
   You imagined this happening more oftenâyou and Tim, not just coworkers but friends. Maybe even more. Maybe this was one relationship you didnât have to end before it started.
   You dared to let yourself think about it. You watched Tim process your words. Saw the emotion clearly written in his face as he looked at you intensely.Â
   âHey, thanks again for not letting me be alone tonight,â you told him, youâre voice soft.Â
   âDonât take it personally, Boot,â he said. âMy house is being repainted and even your place beats breathing in paint fumes all night.â
   âIâm honored,â you laughed, rolling your eyes. âBut you have to admit this has been funâhanging out.â
   Your little impromptu sleepover. You smiled.
   Tim, however, looked like a switch had been flipped inside of him. You watched as he clenched his jaw, leaning almost imperceptibly away from youÂ
   âListen, Bootââ
   He was cut off by the sound of breaking glass and a loud thumping sound.Â
   You both shot up off the couch, abandoning your drinks. Timâs hand went to his gun. You did the same.Â
   Tim turned to you. âStay here.â
   âLike hell,â you shot back, following him as he started to do a sweep of the main room.
   If that sound was someoneâPaulâbreaking in, you werenât going to sit here and let Bradford fight your battles for you.Â
   He signaled to let you know he was moving to the kitchen. You nodded, following.Â
   âClear,â he muttered, and moved on towards the bathroom. You were right behind him when you heard another noise, like the muffled sound of scraping of furniture, and you spun around.
   The bedroom. It was the only room in that direction that you hadnât checked yet.Â
   You glanced to Tim, but he hadnât heard it. He was a few feet ahead of you, just now entering the bathroom.Â
   You slowly stepped away from him and made your way across the apartment, down the hall and over to the closed bedroom door.
   Holding your weapon in one hand, you opened the door with the other. But, you barely had time to see what was on the other side before you were grabbed and a cloth was shoved into your mouth.Â
   Your gun was ripped from your hand, and you were pushed hard onto the ground. Your wrist burned where you landed on shards of glass from the broken window
   Something smacked into the back of your head and you were dragged and thrown onto the bed on the corner. You heard the door shut.Â
   Squinting up into the light, rubbing your throbbing head, your heart dropped as you saw who was in front of you.Â
   âDid you miss me?â Paul sneered, spinning your gun in his hand.Â
   You froze. Everything crashed into you at once. The events of the last time you saw your ex-boyfriend sped through your mind. Suddenly, you were scared and 18 again, at the mercy of this man.Â
   âI guess you got my manâs message,â Paul continued. âBecause you donât exactly look shocked to see me. Scared, of course, but not shocked.â
   Coming back to yourself, you scrambled up onto your knees, ready to knock him out.
   Paul shook his head, laughing. âNo, no. If you move even an inch Iâll shoot you right in the forehead.â
   You sat back down, your heart thumping in your chest as you scanned the room for a way out. Some way to get the upper hand on him. You had been trained for this.
   âListen to me,â he continued, his hand coming to the gag in your mouth. You flinched away from him. âI know thereâs someone in here with you. If you try to scream to alert them, I will also shoot you. Iâd like to play with you first before I put a bullet in your brain but, hey, Iâm not picky. Is that clear?â
   You nodded, trying to measure how fast you could knock the weapon out of his hand before he could take a shot at you. Paul took the cloth out of you mouth.
   You gasped in air. âBackupâs going to be in here any second and then youâre going back to prison.â
   Tim would notice you were gone. He had to.Â
   âOh, I donât think so,â Paul smiled. âIâll be long gone and youâll be long dead before that happens.â
   You glanced towards the door. What was taking him so long?
   Suddenly, Paul reached forwards and gripped your face in his hand. âJust as beautiful as I remember. It was such a shame things had to end with us as they did. How did that happen again? Oh, thatâs right. You betrayed me.â
   âAnd that was the best decision I ever made,â you spat.Â
   Paul backed up, shaking his head. âYouâve gotten feistier, baby. Itâll make this so much more fun for me.â
   He stepped back towards you, his face inches from yours, sneering. âThisâll be just like old times.â
   Bam! The door to your bedroom busted open. Bradford rushed in, taking in the situation. You breathed a sigh of relief.
   âGet down on the ground!â Tim growled.
   Paul froze for only a second, fear flashing across his face, but it was enough. You lunged, wrestling the gun out of his hands, your wrist protesting.Â
   You trained it on him. Paul was surrounded.
   âYou have five seconds to get on the ground before I shoot you,â Tim bit out, his expression murderous.
   âCome on, baby, youâre not going to let Officer Buzzkill treat me like that, are you?â Paul appealed to you.Â
   You leveled your gaze on him, ignoring his words. âYou heard him. Get on the ground.â
   Paul slowly knelt, never taking his eyes off of you. Tim charged him, pulling out handcuffs and locking them around his wrists.Â
  You took a moment to be amusedâof course Tim had off-duty cuffs.Â
  âSo this ends the way it starts, huh?â Paul shook his head. âYou getting me locked up?â
   âJust like old times,â you echoed his earlier statement. You stayed stoic, putting your hands on your hips to hide the way they shook.
  Anger sparked in Paulâs eyes before he took on a smug expression. âYouâre right. Youâre the same girl you were when I met you. You havenât changed a bit.â
   âDonât listen to him, Boot,â Tim warned hauling the man up off the ground.Â
   âYou know Iâm right,â Paulâs manic eyes bore into yours. He was enjoying every moment of this, laughter in his tone. It took all that was in you to keep your expression blank, unaffected. âYouâll always be that person I knewâthe person who loved me. Because you didâlove me. You couldâve walked away. But you didnât. You just took it all like the victim you are. You pathetic bitchââ
   He was cut off abruptly as Tim slammed him face-first against the wall. Paul cried out.
   âThatâs enough!â Tim shouted. âIf you ever threatenâno, if you even look at (Y/l/n) again, I will hunt you down and personally remove every external limb from your body, do you understand me? (Y/n) is a million times the person you will ever be and you donât get to make her feel small. If I didnât think sitting in a cell for the rest of your life was a worse fate, Iâd kill you right nowâscrew the department.â
   Your ears were ringing, your head dizzy as you tried to ground yourself. Your voice came out tiny. âTim, stop.â
   Bradford turned to you, almost as if he had forgotten you were in the room. He was breathing hard, his fists clenched around the man in custody.Â
   âAnd sheâs not a victim,â Tim whispered, turning back to Paul, his voice right by his ear. âSheâs a survivor.â
   With that, he shoved Paul back to the ground and moved over to you, his eyes roaming over your face. Your body. He took the gun out of your hands, setting it on the desk. Then, he gripped your injured wrist and you winced as he inspected it.
   âProbably hurts like hell, but you wonât need stitches. Any other injuries?â
   âUm, he hit me in the back of the head,â you felt your scalp, a lump already forming.
   Timâs hands moved to your hair, his touch gentle, his breath on your cheek as he leaned to get a better look.
   Your own breath caught, your heart racing at the intimacy of your position.Â
   âWhatâs the damage?â You almost whispered.
   Timâs eyes met yours, the heat of his stare spreading through your body. âYouâll have a nasty bruise, but thereâs no external bleeding.â
   Tim stepped back, and you found yourself wishing he hadnât.
   âAre youâare you ok, Boot?â He asked carefully.Â
   How did you even answer that question? You were still in shock, unable to process what had just happened.Â
   âI will be,â you settled on, breathing in slowly. Exhaling.
   Tim looked like he wanted to say more but he clenched his jaw, glancing in the direction of Paul, who had been uncharacteristically silent. Maybe he had finally accepted his defeat.Â
   âIâm going to call for back up, you go clean that up,â Tim gestured to the blood covering your wrist where you had landed in the broken glass. âYou need help?â
   âNo, I got it,â You nodded, walking towards the bathroom as you heard Tim make the call.
   â911, whatâs your emergency?â
   âThis is off-duty officer Tim Bradford, badge 34831. I need a unit to my location for a 126. Suspect in custody. Code 4.â
   Timâs voice faded as you made your way down the hall, shutting the bathroom door after you to access the medicine cabinet behind it.
   You took out the necessary supplies and began cleaning the wound. You stopped in front of the sink, letting your burning eyes close for a moment, massaging your temples.Â
   Now that you were alone, you let yourself collapse, bracing your hands against the counterÂ
   Images flooded your senses.Â
   The gag. Paul hitting you from behind. You, young and frightened, huddled on the ground. That gleam in his eyes.
   Your eyes snapped open, your breath coming out fast.
   Heâs in custody. You told yourself. He canât hurt you anymore.Â
   You looked at your reflection in the mirror staring wearily back at you, your hands still shaking as you brushed your hair back from your face. Was it hot in here or was it just you?
   Turning your attention back to your wrist, you took a deep breath and continued to dab at the wound.
   You reached for the bandages on the counter. A sheen of sweat broke out on your forehead as you wrapped your arm.Â
   You pictured Paulâs grip on you. His words rang in your ears.Â
   Youâre the same girl you were when I met you. You havenât changed a bit.
   The room tilted. You swayed on your feet so you sunk down to the ground, leaning your head against the cabinet, the cool wood pressing against your head.Â
   You tried to slow your erratic breathing but you couldnât. You couldnâtâ
   The sound of footsteps and voices carried through the door. You were vaguely aware that it was probably the backup here to take Paul away.
   You closed your eyes, your throat tight, you pulse thundering in your ears.
   Iâm ok, you tried to tell yourself. Iâm ok. Iâm ok.
   You were unaware how long you sat like this. You had no concept of time. Your thoughts were wild, images flashing in and out, unable to form conscious ideas. Every breath sending a sharp pain through your body.Â
   âBoot?â
   The muffled voice was closer than the others had been.Â
   âBoot?â The voice was louder now. You registered Tim at the door. He knocked once. Twice.Â
   âBoot, Iâm coming in,â he shouted, his voice laced with worry. The door was shoved open.Â
   âDammit,â he cursed, seeing your state. You felt him getting closer to you, but you didnât look up as he knelt by you, his concerned expression taking in yours.
   âHey, look at me,â Tim coaxed. â(Y/l/n), breathe.â
   He seemed miles and miles away. There was a pause.
   âHey, Boot, I got another test for you,â he spoke quickly, gently placing a hand on your shoulder. âI want you to tell me the most annoying person we work with.â
   âWhat?â You rasped, barely hearing him.Â
  âBishopâs an easy target,â he said. âAnd Lopez is a slob, so you canât go wrong there. Westâs got the whole daddy issues thing. Donât even get me started on Nolanââ
   You swallowed hard, your mouth feeling dry.
   âAnd then thereâs me. I mean, Iâm annoying right?â
   You breathed a shaky laugh, opening your eyes slowly.Â
   Tim smiled. âOh so you agree? Itâs ok, Boot, you can say me. Go ahead, I can take it.â
   When you didnât say anything, Tim kept talking. âPersonally Iâd go for Detective Coleman. The man makes double what I do and Iâm convinced he doesnât own a decent looking tie.â
   âL-like theâthe green one from last week,â you managed, trying to slow your breathing.
   âLeprechauns would call it tacky,â Tim agreed. âNow, since weâve discussed this from all angles Iâm going to need you to choose wisely. Because this is going to go on your evaluation for today.â
   You gulped. âAreâare you going to get me fired if I say you?â
   Tim let out a quiet, relieved laugh. âI knew it. Guess whoâs going back to long-sleeves on Monday?â
   âIn this heat wave? Youâyou wouldnât dare,â you joked, sniffing.
   âI donât know, I am the most annoying person you work withâsounds like something I might do.â
   You laughed again, this time the sound coming out less strained. You focused on taking deep breaths, feeling your heart rate return to normal.Â
   âThere you go.â Tim stood up, offering his hand to you for the second time that day. You gripped his arm as he pulled you up onto shaky legs.
   âThanks,â you mumbled, embarrassed to have had your TO see you like this now that your head was clearer.Â
   âFor what, doing my job?â
   You smiled weakly at him, running a hand along your forehead. âSorry for umââ Â
   âHaving a normal reaction to a highly emotional situation? Donât apologize for being human,â Tim said firmly, his forehead creased.
   âSo, heâs gone?â Youâre voice came out small.
   Timâs expression softened. âHeâs gone.â
   You nodded again, looking at the floor. Tim sighed, reaching an arm out. âCome here.â
You took a step towards him and then you were in his arms, his embrace strengthening you as he rubbed your back. You stood there like that, not wanting this to end. Not wanting to put distance between you again. Finally, he pulled back and looked down at you, his gaze weighted, before taking a few steps towards the door. You looked over Timâs shoulder.
   âHey, (Y/n), look at me.â Tim said. You brought your gaze up to meet his. âHe is never going to hurt you again, ok? Iâll make sure of that.â
   You let your eyes fall closed, feeling ashamed that you had been so affected. That Tim had to handle all of this for you. âI know. And Iâll understand if afterâŠall this, you donât see me fit toâto be a police officer anymore.â
   Timâs eyes hardened, his voice hardening with them. âWith all do respect, Boot, thatâs the stupidest thing youâve ever said. I meant every word of what I said back thereâyouâre a survivor. All I saw tonight is that you are a brave and intelligent woman who just so happens to have a scumbag of an ex-boyfriend. Donât let it define you because then he wins. Youâre a great cop, (Y/l/n). Itâs rookies like you who make the force as strong as it is.â
   You listened to Tim speak. He sounded soâŠpassionate. Bishopâs words came back to you.
   Tim might like you more than heâs willing to let youâor himselfâin on.
   You desperately wanted that to be true, now more than ever. Heâd been so kind to you in this past hourâstaying with you, rescuing you, reassuring you, bringing you back from whatever dark place you had just been in.Â
   And then this. Talking about you like heâŠlike he really cared about you. And maybe it was just because he felt like as your training officer he had to protect you. But in the moment, it felt like maybe it could be more than that.Â
  âSo what Iâm hearing is, Iâm getting a promotion?â You teased finally, brushing your hair back from your damp face, breaking the silence.Â
   Bradford put up a hand. âLetâs not get ahead of ourselves, you still have a lot to learn from me.â
   You sighed. This was normal, this was comfortable. How you and Tim always acted with each other. You were both relieved and disappointed at the change back into familiar territory.Â
   You ran a hand through your hair, stifling a yawn. Saying today had been a long day wouldâve been the understatement of the century.
   âNow come on,â Tim flicked his head in the direction of the door. âItâs way past my bedtime.â
   âLet me guess, nine p.m. sharp every night?â You teased.
   âThatâs not true.â
   You raised an eyebrow at him.
   âNine-thirty,â he admitted.Â
   You giggled, following Tim out of the bathroom and into the hallway which led to the living room.
   You glanced at your bedroom as you passed it, trying not to think about what had happened in there. It was over now, you told yourself.Â
   âSince my room is kind of a crime scene, I guess weâre both crashing out here,â you sighed, gesturing to the couch.Â
   Silence filled the room and you immediately realized your mistake, cheeks flaming.Â
   âOr, right, I guess you can go now. Dangerâs over.â
   âAre you kidding?â Tim said. âAnd get to bed even later? Iâm not going anywhere.â
   You stepped into the living room. You were glad Tim was staying. You felt safer with him here, even though you knew it was irrational.Â
   âIâll get the blankets and stuff,â you said, turning back the way youâd came.
   âLet me go with you,â Tim offered.
   âI would but theyâre in the closet and I donât want it to trap you or something,â you said.Â
   âYou think I canât take a closet full of your crap? Bring it on,â Tim challenged and you led him down the hall.Â
   A few minutes later you returned to the living room, blankets and pillows in tow. Tim helped you pull out the couch bedâyou were grateful youâd opted for this couch instead of a regular oneâand you stood back, admiring your work.Â
   âTake the couch,â you told him. âIt was your bed originally.â
   âNot gonna happen.â Tim crossed his arms. âItâs your house. And youâre injured.â
   âIâm fine. And where are you going to sleep? The floor?â You asked him.Â
   Tim scanned the room and then sat down on the chair across from the couch-turned-bed.Â
   âAre you sure youâre ok on that?â You asked. It didnât exactly look comfortable for spending hours on.
   âTrust me, Boot, you got the short end of the stick. Have fun sleeping on plywood.âÂ
   You smiled. âSo, what, youâre just going to sit over there and watch me sleep?â
   âI can leave, if youâreââ
   âNo,â youâre voice came out faster and more sharp than youâd intended. âI mean, you came all this way, I donât want you to have to get an Uber home at this hour.â
   You climbed into bed, aware that you were still in your clothes, but not caring enough to change.Â
   âWe should get some sleep, itâs been a long night,â Tim sighed. He got up and turned the lights off, darkness filling the room.Â
   âDamn, boot,â you heard Timâs voice even though you couldnât see him anymore. âItâs pitch black in here. You donât sleep with a light or anything?â
   âWell I donât usually sleep in my living room,â you pointed out. Then you stifled a laugh. âWait a minute. Is Officer Tim Bradford afraid of the dark?â
   Tim scoffed. âIâm not afraid of the dark.â
   âYour secretâs safe with me,â you teased.
   âThere is no secret,â Tim shot back.
   You winked. âExactly.â
   âYouâre impossible.â
   âThank you.â You smiled.
   The room fell silent. You heard him sit back down.Â
   You laid back, staring up at the ceiling. The seconds ticked by.Â
  âDo youâdo you think he really wouldâve shot me?â You asked, finally.
   âI donât know,â Tim admitted. âHe clearly thought you guys had unfinished business. But guys like that get high on fearâon desperation. He couldnât have that if you were dead. In his mind, heâd be losing his power over you.â
   He paused.Â
   âBesides, I donât think he wouldâve gotten the chance,â Tim said. âHe clearly underestimated the badass-ness of his opponent.â
   You snorted. âDid you just say âbadass-nessâ?â
   âItâs a word!â Tim defended.Â
   You laughed, turning over on your side.Â
   âBut seriously, if you ever need anything, you can always talk to me,â Tim said, sounding earnest. âI mean it.â
   âI may just take you up on that,â you responded. âDo you tell that to all your rookies?â
   You could barely make out Timâs frame in the dark. âNo, not all of them.â
   âIâm going to take that as Iâm special,â you said.Â
   Your next words were out of your mouth before you could stop them. Â
  âYou know, Lopez and Bishop had this crazy idea that you had feelings for me,â you said, staring up at the ceiling. âBut I told them it was just thatâcrazy.â
   Tim didnât speak.
   âIt is crazy right?â You asked. You had to know. He still was silent. âRight?â
   âBoot, lookââ Bradford started. His voice came out rough, as if he hadnât talked in days. Your heartbeat was a deafening roar in your ears.Â
   âTim?â
   You could hear more than see Timâs movements. He stood, pacing the length of the room. Sat back down. Stood up again. Sat.Â
   âDammit, Boot, I canât do this,â he finished. âI canât do this right now, (Y/n).â
   Your pulse quickened. He hadnât denied it.Â
   You stood up.Â
   And maybe it was having to deny your attraction to your TO for seven months. Maybe it was the adrenaline still coursing through your veins from the attack earlier. Maybe it was because the darkness felt safe and secretâmade you feel like you could do anything. Maybe you were just too eager after his small encouragementâor, lack of discouragement.
   But, whatever the reason, you walked over to where Tim sat, kneeled down, looked into his confused, strained eyes, and kissed him.Â
   Tim froze, his lips still against yours. And then, almost as if he was afraid you would vanish or startle, he placed his hand gingerly on your waist, and leaned into the kiss.
   And he was kissing you back. Tim Bradford was kissing you back.Â
   His free hand went to your hair, deepening the kiss as he gripped you closer. He kissed you like he had been waiting a lifetime.
   It was desperate and raw and passionateâit was perfect.
   You broke apart, both gasping for breath.   Â
   âListen, Boot,â Tim started. You watched his Adamâs apple bob as he swallowed. âYouâve had a long and confusing dayââ
   You interrupted him. âYeah. Yeah, I have. But Iâm not confused about this.â
   You brought your lips to his again. This time he didnât hold back. He pulled you closer to him and you felt the warmth of him through his shirt.Â
   When you came apart again, he was smiling.Â
   âWell, I guess I can check thinking that you hate me off my daily checklist,â you whispered.Â
   âI donât hate you, Boot,â Tim said. âI actually hate how much I donât hate you.â
   You studied the planes of his face, the light from the hallway illuminating his eyes. His lips. His jawline.
   âBootââ
   âIf youâre going to say that this is a bad idea, I donât want to hear it. Not tonight,â you said.Â
   âI thought that was obvious.â Tim stated matter-of-factly. âI was going to say actually Iâd appreciate it if you did turn on a lamp or something, becauseââ
   You laughed, kissing him again.Â
   âBut seriously,â Tim continued. âYou know we canât do this.â
   âWhy not?â You pouted. âIf itâs what we both want.â
   âItâs not about what we wantâwe could be putting both of our careers in jeopardy.â
   You knew he was right. Of course he was right.Â
   âBut is itâwhat you want?âÂ
   âGod yes,â Tim blurted, standing up, his voice strained. âItâs what Iâve wanted from the moment I started training you. Do you know how hard itâs been trying to put distance between us and deny every damn thing when all I wanted to do wasââ
   He broke off, running a hand along his hair.Â
   âThen do it.â Your heart pounded in your chest. âYouâll only be my TO for a few more months, weâll just keep it a secret until then. No one has to know.â
   Tim looked at you.Â
   âOk youâre right, Bishop and Lopez will totally know somethingâs up,â you admitted.
   âI guess Iâll just have to transfer,â Tim joked.
   âWhat happened to âTim Bradford finished what he startsâ?â You asked.
   âOh I intend to do just that,â Tim whispered. âAre we really thinking about doing this?â
   You thought about the consequences you could faceâTim could faceâif it got out that you and your training officer were romantically involved. You knew it would be a huge riskâone that could get you cut from the program.
   You looked at Tim. He was watching you like he never wanted to let you go again. You thought about how long youâd wanted this, even if you didnât fully know it until tonight.
   And the decision seemed clear.
   âYeah,â you beamed. âYeah I think we are.â
   He cupped your face in his hand, his fingers warm against the back of your neck. Your eyes closed against his touch. You felt comfort for the first time in hours.
   âYou need rest,â Tim whispered and your eyes fluttered open. âAs much as Iâd love to do this all night.â
   You nodded, backing up towards your bed. Tim ran a hand through his hair again and then sat back down in the armchair.
  âWhatâre you doing?â You asked him.
  âGoing to bed,â Tim answered, as if it was obvious.Â
  âGet over here,â you gestured, rolling your eyes at him.
  âI was hoping youâd say that,â Tim smiled.Â
   You climbed into bed beside him, pulling the covers over both of you.
   You lay your head on Bradfords chest. You could feel his heartbeat in your ear as you closed your eyes.  Â
  âYou know, this will kind of be like doing undercover workâminus the threat of getting killed,â you said.Â
   âI donât know about thatâI wouldnât put anything past an angry Sergeant Grey.â
   âWeâll just have to be so in-character that we never find out,â you said.Â
   âIâll make sure to be extra tough on you next shift,â Tim agreed.Â
   âAnd thatâs different from any other day how?â You shot back, sitting up.Â
   âHey, training rookies is a sacred duty and I take that very seriously. If you think Iâm going to throw your education out the window simply becauseââ
   You shut him up by pressing your lips to his. You echoed his earlier words. âI wouldnât dream of it.â
   Tim shook is head slightly, eyes roaming over your face.Â
   âWhat?â You asked.
   âYouâre so beautiful, (Y/n),â Tim breathed. âIâm so glad I can finally tell you that.â
   âMe too,â you said. âEven if it tookâŠthis for it to happen.â
   âSpeaking of which, maybe Iâll take a sick day tomorrow,â Tim said. âSince thereâs no way Greyâor myselfâis letting you go to work. Whatâd you say?â
   You wanted to fight him, say you were fine and you could make it to your shift the next day. But the promise of taking a sick day with Tim was to tempting to pass up.Â
   âI say Iâm glad your house is being repainted,â you teased. âBecause then youâll have to stay with me.â
   Tim smiled knowingly. âMy house isnât being repainted, Boot. And Iâm all yours.â
   You grinned, laying back down and resting your head back against Tim. He wrapped his arm around your shoulder.
   You felt safe, protected in his arms.Â
   The rest would come. Dealing with what had happened tonight. Starting your secret relationship with Tim. Eventually facing everyone at work who had heard the news and would want to ask if you were ok. And you would be ok.
   But for now, this was enough. He was enough.Â
   âTim?â You whispered.
   âHmm?â
   You struggled for words to fit the gravity of what you were feeling for him. âThanks forâŠeverything.â
   âWhat are TOs for,â Tim shrugged.Â
   âApparently keeping the night light business afloat.â You giggled at the look on Bradfordâs face.Â
   âShut it, Boot.â

Naked in Manhattan
A/N: pls send requests, i need them for my shitty trip. (A little update 2 days later) im gonna cry my eyes out if i have to stay her for any longer.
Premise: Teen!Vi x teen!reader, being unlikely friends, having a sleepover together and that leads to a bit of silly stuff (NOTHING WEIRD JUST KISSING)
Warnings: uh kissing? Idk, dont read this if youâre like 30 cuz thats a little weird. Probably a wrong description of friday the 13th, i watched it like 5 years ago so idk all i know is theres a sex scene at the start.
Words: 1,481
To put it simply, you were a weird kid. From 1st grade to now you didnt have many friends. It wasnt horrible, it was honestly pretty nice. Less drama to worry about and more time to get your homework done so you can do whatever you want. That was until you met Vi.
She was a pretty sociable person, not like happy to talk constantly, just unafraid of interaction. You both sat by each other during biology, it came to you easily but with Vi it took a little more time⊠after a while she started to ask for your help. It was never a demand to do her homework, and you could tell that she was really struggling. It started with a few short explanations, to a few short conversations about the shitty teacher, to plans to hang out afterschool. It was all so fast for you, was this even how friendships started? Either way it was fine, not like you could call it off when youâre 5 minutes away from her house.
Your heart raced at the thought of even being in her house. Was it weird to dress up for this? Were your pajamas appropriate? What would her house look like? You sat in the backseat of the car, gripping onto the strap of your bag for dear life, contemplating if it was even normal to be this nervous. I mean you were acting like you were going on your first date, and itâd be weird to date another girl, right? I mean Vi was pretty but wasnât in a romantic way, maybe⊠your racing thoughts were cut off by the sudden stop of the car. You quickly got out, making sure you had all your stuff on you.
After talking to Viâs dad Vander for a little, you sat on the floor of Viâs bedroom, looking around like you about escape. She had a few posters, most of some boxers you didnât know and some rock bands you also didnât know. Her room was messy but you can see that she attempted to clean up a bit. It was a little after 9pm, Vi was talking to her dad about watching some movies on the TV. A part of you wanted to beg to be picked up and the other wanted to stay forever.
âAlright, you up to watch some horror movies?â Vi said with a smirk on her face, holding up a few CDs of shitty shock value horror. You smiled, standing up and walking quickly to living room together.
You both sat on the couch together, a space between the two of you. âOkay⊠Friday the 13th or Hellraiser?â She asked with a daring look on her face as she held both them up. You pointed to Friday the 13th, i mean youâve heard about it more so it couldnât be that bad, right? Vander was out going to the store, and Powder was out for the night by now. Vi put the CD in and you both sat watching. Maybe you spent a little too much time caring about if your posture was bad or if you should hold something, but as soon as the opening scene came on you didnât know how to act. Seeing the people move in such a manner to mimic sex, you knew it was probably not real but it made you blush a bit. As you listened to the faux moans, you felt weird. You imagined yourself as the girl for a minute, it wasnât too enjoyable compared to imagining the both of you there. But you wouldnât do that with Vi, that would be weird, right. Safe to say you stayed silent for the rest of the movie, barely even getting scared if you excuse jumping a few times.
After it had ended you sort of just spaced out. Vi took a notice of that, assuming you were just scared or something. ââŠyou wanna watch something easier?â She said after a second of silence, you just nodded. She quickly got up to look through CDs again, finally landing on Mean Girls to cleanse your palate. Putting in and watching felt a bit better. You both made fun of them and laughed with each other, it was weirdly bonding. The clock hit 11pm, you guys were a bit closer on the couch. You looked to Vi at a funny part, seeing if she would laugh, you didnât know why seeing her smile made your heart race. Your eyes met and she smiled at just you, but you felt like you were caught stealing something so you quickly looked away.
The movie ended and Vander came back, telling you both to go to bed. You both obliged, even though you shared a small look, knowing youâd stay up until you couldnât keep your eyes open. You both sat on the floor of Viâs bedroom, attempting to think of something to do. âMaybe we could play truth or dare?â You ask, it was stereotypical but it was a fun game, theoretically. Vi lit up, like it was the idea of a century. âIâll start, truth or dare?â Vi said with a smile, holding her pillow in her lap. âTruth?â You were bit unsure, still anxious if all your actions were okay. âOkay⊠whoâs your celebrity crush?â Vi asks with the same smile plastered on her face. You thought long and hard, you couldnât say some like Kristen Stewart or any other girl, that would make it so tense. ââŠuh⊠whoever the actor is for ElviraâŠâ you say, hesitant but you couldnât lie. Lying would be worse than making it awkward. She looked a bit shocked. âReally? You like girls?â She says like it just unexpected rather than weird. âI dont know⊠i mean probably.â You say, trying to push off the topic, it wasnât something for you to decide right now, or you just told yourself that. It was silent and awkward for a moment, well for you. You forgot it was your turn. âOh, truth or dare?â You say quickly, attempting to completely forget, or at least think of a way to give yourself short term memory loss. âTruth.â She says, her smile still unmoving. âUh⊠have you ever dated someone?â You ask, a little hesitant. The warm light of a lamp illuminated Viâs face, it was covered in scars but it was pretty to you. âNo, datings for losers.â She says with a laugh, it was unexpected though. Someone so nice, so pretty, i mean you would totally date herâ never mind. âTruth or dare.â Vi says, her voice daring. You couldnât pick truth again, itâd a pussy move. âDare.â You said with a surge of confidence. It was a moment of silence as Vi contemplated what dare to give her.
âI dare you to kiss me.â Vi says with a smirk, like she knew you wouldnât do it. Your face became hot as can be. You froze for a minute, it was so weird to even think about doing that with any girl, let alone Vi. You didnât know if it was a sudden rush of adrenaline or what, all that you did know was the feeling of Viâs lips pressed against yours. You held the side of her cheek, as if she would leave if you let go. Vi was surprised, well that was before she responded with ten times the amount of force in the kiss. Almost straight up knocking you down, her hands falling to your shoulder and your waist. After a minute that felt way too long, she broke the kiss. Your insides felt crazy, you had never felt like this ever. Her smile was so wide as she stared into your eyes, your own expression just being plain shocked.
ââŠwas that too much?â Vi asked, you shook your head maybe a bit too much. You started to smile, the warm feeling growing in your stomach. With only the smallest bit of hesitance she kissed you once more, well it was more like a hundred small kisses, but it lasted forever. Her hand that was planted on your waist gently moved upwards onto your ribcage, feeling your heart race. On the other hand, yours were stuck like they were weighed down with concrete. It was awkward, intense as well, she prodded her tongue onto your lips just a bit, as if asking for entrance. You separate your lips a smidge, her tongue quickly entering. It was awkward, you let out a few weird noises, she almost passed out from lack of oxygen. After breaking the kiss, you both sat there awkwardly, not really knowing what to do next.
âUh⊠that was niceâŠâ Vi says with a flushed face and a dorky smile. You nodded, you had never once expected to make out with anyone, let alone a girl. It was nice, very nice.

I am sooooo super excited for the Future Turtles to be meeting the Present Turtles, but I wanted to take a moment and tell you how much I really loved and felt the latest update.
Having F!Leo criticising Leo's decisions and openly stating "this dude makes nothing but really fucking dumb decisions"- like, he's so mad at this kid for getting it so consistently wrong, when Casey is completely capable and they're the same age.
Then the "they made it about me when they took my brother" and F!Leo just... freezes. That resonates with him. And then he thinks about the fact Leo voluntarily trapped himself in the Prison Dimension, and that gives Casey the opening he's been waiting for.
Twice. TWICE he watched Leonardo sacrifice himself for the world. TWICE Leonardo took Casey's choice away the portal shut between them. TWICE Casey thought Leonardo was gone forever. And Casey is FURIOUS about it. He gets it, of course he does, but it doesn't change the fact he lost Leonardo twice.
Then F!Leo listens to Casey's rant and his demeanor towards Leo shifts again.
He seems to contemplate the kid, not judge. And I wonder if that's partially because- and this might just be my interpretation- Casey is somewhat defending Leo. F!Leo is all set for passing judgement on the kids terrible choices, but in the end they both made similar self-sacrificing decisions for the benefit of others.
Idk, it just seems like this interaction was a nice balance between F!Leo being thoroughly disappointed in Leo for making bad decisions (as the Leader of a Resistance would be), and realising Leo (and himself back then) was just a kid thrust into war he wasn't ready for.
Oh, yeah. Future Leo is judging little Leo. And he has every right to do so. Because the things that little Leo has done and made others do are stupid and dangerous.
"They made it about me when they took my brother" makes him kinda freeze, y e s. Because that's the first hint. The first moment he looks at the small version of himself and realizes. Shit, it sounds awfully fucking familiar. It resonates.
And Casey's next words. It's not just about both Leos' penchant for self-sacrifice. It's that despite their differences, they share the same core. The past you is still you. He's stupider, he's more inexperienced, but your ideals and your values are also his. Face it.

part seven: closing chapters
Youâve been back in Los Angeles for less than a day and you already missed the simplicity of being with Hugh. Los Angeles was reality and it was an ugly one. All of the responsibilities came tumbling down on you and you felt like you were stuck in an inescapable maze. As much as you wanted to stay hidden, tucked under Hughâs protective arm forever, you had to be an adult about this. You needed to stop ignoring Ashley and talk things out with her. You also needed to talk to Pedro and close that chapter that had been left wide open. Your personal life couldnât have picked a worse time to get interesting. Tour started in two weeks, leaving very little time to tie all loose ends before traveling the world.
When you landed this morning, you ate a quick breakfast from a small cafe and went straight to rehearsals. They ran longer today to make up for the few days you were gone but you didnât mind. Being on stage and performing the music you worked so hard on always upped your mood, even if you were unbelievably tired at the end of the day. At the moment, you were laying in bed, trying your best to stay awake while you waited for Hugh to call. He texted you a few hours earlier saying he spent the day with his kids and talked to them about the relationship you two had built over the questionable short period of time. He didnât go into any further detail but promised to call as soon as he got home and settled. It was a little past 10pm, making it 1am in New York. Just as you were beginning to lose hope in Hughâs late night call, your phone lit up with Hughâs contact.Â
âHi Hugh.â You say sweetly into the speaker, sleepiness evident in your voice. âHi, baby. Were you sleeping?â The deep accent you adored so much rumbled through the phone. âNo, I was just laying down. How are you? How was your day?â As you speak, you move to sit up, your back resting against the headboard. âMy day was good. It was nice to spend some time with the kids and catch up. We did a puzzle and talked, it was a nice day. How was your day, baby?âÂ
âIt was good, busy. Basically hopped off the plan straight into rehearsals.â You let out an airy laugh. âIâm sorry sweet girl, I should let you get some sleep.â His voice trails off at the end and you know he genuinely feels bad for calling so late. âNo, noâŠitâs fine. I want to talk to you. I donât start as early tomorrow so I have some time to sleep in.â You assure him. âAre you sure baby? We can always talk tomorrow.â âIâm sure.â You let out a small yawn and Hugh chuckles. âHm, if you say so.âÂ
âWhatever..â You say playfully. The line goes quiet for a moment, neither of you speaking. âSo uhâŠyou told your kids about us?âÂ
You wanted to ease into asking but you were dying to know. Thay had been the number one reason youâd been so hesitant to take on a relationship with Hugh and you know their opinion means something to him too. If they didnât approve or had any distaste towards your pairing, you werenât sure if you could be with Hugh without having a heavy layer of guilt strapped to your heart.Â
âOh yea, I told them.âÂ
His response makes your heart skip a beat. Hugh was never one to beat around the bush but he was dragging this out and it scared you.Â
âAnd what did they say?âÂ
Hugh takes a sharp breath in and your heart falls into your stomach. They donât approve, you can sense the words about to tumble out of his mouth.Â
âTheyâre fine with it.âÂ
His short answers are beginning to irritate you a little bit. You needed to know every detail of their conversation, you wouldnât be able to sleep without it.Â
âHugh, can you please just tell me everything? Your lack of words is driving me insane.â You draw out the end of the last word, showing him just how frustrated you are.Â
âIâm sorry baby, there's not much to tell. My daughter is a fan and begged me to introduce you two and umâŠwell my sonâŠhe uh..this is so fucking awkwardâŠâ He huffs. âWhat did he say? Iâm sure it canât be that bad if theyâre fine with everything right? Just spit it out, I can take it.â He sighs. âMy son has a crush on you.âÂ
âOh!â You can feel your body heat up underneath your duvet. âThat uhâŠthat is kinda awkward. What did he say about us being together then?âÂ
âHe said something about how he doesn't understand how I was able to âbag a baddieâ like you, whatever that means.â You laugh at that. âHeâs not mad, just jealous I guess. Iâm really gonna have to keep an eye out for him when you meet them. I trust him, heâs my son, but Iâm not gonna stand for his eyes wandering on my girl.â
You laugh again, partially because of his words and partially because of how wild this entire conversation is.Â
âWell Iâd love to meet your daughter and sheâs free to come to any show she wants, I'll get her in. Same goes for your son as well, if thatâs okay with you. I donât want you to get too jealous and cause a fight between you two.â You giggle through the last few words.Â
âYea yea, weâll see.âÂ
The line goes quiet again, a comfortable silence.Â
âHugh, I have a question.â âShoot baby.â You can hear the sleepiness starting to appear in his voice. âI was wondering if youâd be okay with me going to talk to Pedro soon?â You hear rustling on his end before he speaks again. âWhy do you want to do that?â Thereâs a slight hint of anger in his tone but you know itâs not towards you but towards how Pedro treated you. âI really need to talk things out with him. As much as I'm over him, thereâs still a little part of me that needs closure, that needs to ask questions. I want this part of my life to be done but I need to have it properly sealed off.â âCould you wait until Iâm back in town? I trust you but I donât trust him one bit.â You smile at his protectiveness. âI really want to fix everything before the tour starts. I need to talk to Ashley too and the sooner I can get over this, the sooner I can put all my focus on the tour and you. So unless youâre planning on being back in town in a week, I need to do this alone. Is that okay?â He sighs and takes a moment. âOf course thatâs fine baby. Just keep me updated on everything that happens.â âI will.â The two of you talk for 20 more minutes before you both call it a night, ending the call with âI love youâ.Â
The next morning, you immediately texted Hugh before rolling out of bed and starting your day. You showered, brushed your teeth, got dressed, and made your way to the kitchen. You opted for a lazy breakfast, too tired to do anything else. You popped a bagel into the toaster and fried an egg, laying a slice of cheese on top to melt. You made your little bagel breakfast sandwich and washed a few berries to go with it.Â
While you ate, you scrolled through your phone. Hugh hasn't texted you back yet but it didn't surprise you. He was up late and with his age, he needed his sleep. You smiled to yourself as you thought about how peaceful he looks while heâs deep in sleep. While scrolling through instagram, you get an ad for Gladiator II. Your exâs stupid hot face was plastered on your phone. You sighed and pulled up his contact. You were grateful you deleted the text thread you once had, you werenât sure if you could handle seeing all of the previous sweet words he used to send you.Â
You: hey p, itâs y/n. I was wondering if we could meet up soon and talk? no pressure :)Â
Once you hit send, you locked your phone and slid it across your kitchen table. Your phone buzzed a few seconds later and your heart started beating fasterâŠthereâs no way he could have already responded. You reached for your phone, having to lift out of your chair slightly. When your phone unlocks, your heart slows down, itâs just Hugh.Â
You texted back and forth with Hugh all morning until you pulled up to the Kia Forum. Tour was officially a week away from starting which meant you got to rehearse in the venue that would be starting the tour off. Youâd been in the Forum a few times for various concerts but being here for your own performance was a different animal. Knowing that this place was sold out for you was wild. You caught up with all of your dancers, them sharing the same excitement. The energy in the building was electric. The crew was excited to get their creations in full and everyone was just happy to finally be starting.Â
With being in a new space, the start of rehearsal was a bit slow. Lights, sounds, and various other things had to be adjusted now that everything was in full. You didnât mind though. It gives you a chance to slow down and appreciate how far youâve come. It was lunchtime and you decided to hide away in your dressing room to eat. A few people offered you to come with them but you really needed a moment to yourself. You were overwhelmed but in a good way. You grabbed some food from the catering someone had ordered, you made a note to yourself to find out who it was and thank them.Â
Once you got to your dressing room, you pulled your phone out of your purse and scrolled through your notification log. Hughâs messages were the first thing you saw. You were responding to everything he had sent when another message popped up at the top of your phone.Â
pedro: hey y/n. Iâm free today if you wanna swing by sometime?Â
You pulled up to the familiar gates and typed in the code that was still etched in your brain. Once you parked your car in the semi circle driveway, you texted Pedro that you were here before taking a deep breath and stepping out of your car. It always looked out of place next to the large home, even more now that you didnât belong here the way you once had. One of the brown French style doors open just as you're walking up the three concrete steps that lead to the entrance. You look up from your shoes. Locking eyes with Pedro, you feel your heart tense up. The pain of losing the man you had felt so deeply for re-entered your body involuntarily. He was wearing his typical casual attire: a pair of black cotton shorts, his beloved yellow lakers tee, and a pair of long black socks. The slight gray in his hair had begun to spread, the sides of his beard almost losing all color. He looked as handsome as ever. He held the door open with one arm, leaning slightly. A small smile rested on his face and his brown puppy dog eyes gave you the same feeling they had when you had first met him.Â
âHi y/n.â His voice sounded almost hesitant. âHi PâŠThanks for having me.â He backs up to let you inside. You slip your shoes off, like you had many times before. âNo problem. Iâm kinda surprised you wanted to talk to me, thought you wouldâve been done with me afterâŠwell you know.â You donât answer, instead you walk towards his living room and plop yourself down in the spot you had claimed many months ago, Pedro taking his own claimed spot not too far from yours. âItâs weird seeing you there againâŠmissed seeing you here.â You sigh. âPedroâŠdonât say that.â âWhy not?â âYou donât get to miss me when youâre the one that left me. You hurt me P. Not the other way around.â He scoffs. âSure didnât seem too hurt to me. You moved on just fine.â âCan you stop being an asshole for two fucking seconds?âÂ
You wanted to come into this with patience and maturity but Pedro was making that impossible. He was being completely insufferable and had been since the moment he broke up with you, like it was somehow your fault. You missed the kind Pedro, the one you had fallen for.Â
âWell itâs true, isnât it? It took a month before you fell into someone else's arms, no let me clarify, my friendâs arms.â You could tell he was trying to get under your skin and you didnât know where he gained this hatred for you. His voice was sour, a scowl present on his face.Â
âGod PedroâŠâ You sigh in anger. âYes I invited him to the album party but he was there for me when you sat there and yelled- no embarrassed me at my own event. You donât get to play victim in this situation. We werenât together and hadnât been together for weeks by the time I met him.â You could tell you were beginning to lose control over your emotions. The anger and pain both battled reaching for your throat begging to take control over your next words.Â
His eyes go soft as he starts to speak again. âY/nâŠIâm sorry about that, I was drunk and I-âÂ
You couldnât help but laugh.Â
âYou know what? Fuck you Pedro. Truly. You are the most selfish person Iâve ever met. You broke up with me because the pressure was too hard on you. You come to my event and try to grab me, then you yell at me because Hugh came to check on me. Now youâre mad that I found someone that actually gives two shits about me, that isnât afraid to deal with whatever comes with dating a younger girl? Iâm over it.â You laugh again. âAnd now you want to apologize for that night when youâve been nothing but rude since I sat on this couch? I came here for closure, nothing more. I liked you Pedro. I really really like you and you crushed my heart that night and every time Iâve seen you after. I donât understand what I did to deserve this hatred that youâve been throwing at me but itâs not fair.âÂ
Your anger had won the battle but your sadness would win the war. Your voice broke on your last words, hot tears pouring down your cheeks.Â
âItâs not fucking fair PâŠâÂ
You tuck your face into your sweatshirt, allowing yourself to cry in peace. Pedro doesnât speak and the silence lasts for what feels like forever. You could feel a slight movement on the couch, then two warm arms wrap around your shoulder, a chin resting atop your head. The two of you stay like that for a while. You let your tears flood your cheeks until there arenât any left.Â
âIâm so sorry babygirl. I didnât mean to hurt you like this.âÂ
You slowly pull your face out of the sweater. One of Pedroâs arms drops to rest on his leg, the other lay across your shoulders still. His water line was filled with his own tears, eyes red.Â
âThen why did you?â He takes a moment to think and pulls you into his chest. Your head resting right above his heart, the beat a little faster than the one you had memorized.Â
âShit y/nâŠI know no matter how I say this, itâs gonna sound fucked up.â He squeezes his arms gently. âI was so scared, baby. When everyone started to form their opinions on us and kept pinning me to be some weirdo, I freaked out. Iâm at the height of my career and I couldnât imagine losing thatâŠand you were right, I'm selfish. When I let you go, I immediately regretted it. I showed up to your party wanting to apologize. I had a few drinks, some liquid courage if you will, but damn baby, those fruity little drinks were a lot stronger than I thought theyâd be.â You chuckle at the comment. âI was waisted by the time I saw you and whenâŠHu-...when he came to defend you, I lost my shit. I was so pissed off. Even in the state I was in, the look in his eyes was loud. He looked at you with so much adoration and I knew Iâd already lost you.âÂ
He pauses.Â
âIâm not trying to make excuses for myself, I just..I just want you to- no, I need you to know what happened. Iâm sorry for being an ass today too. I guess Iâm not over you and it hurts that youâre over me.âÂ
You look up at him.Â
âIâm not trying to be mean when I say this P but itâs your fault. I couldâve loved youâŠ.I was falling in love with you. My time with you was special, so different than anything Iâd ever felt before. I think we wouldâve been good together. If you would have talked to me, maybe things would be different. You should have talked to me.âÂ
âWe couldâve been the greatest?â He gives a lazy smile down to you and you look down in shame, wincing slightly. âYou watched it?â You ask quietly. âYea I did.â He pauses. âYou sounded beautiful up there, youâre so talented y/nâŠeven if it was so clearly targeted towards me.â The arm that's wrapped around your shoulder moves, his hand resting on your head now, moving in slow circles.Â
âWould you ever give us another chance?â He asks, looking down at you. The hope in his eyes pains you.Â
âI love him PâŠâ You see the small glimmer of happiness drain from his face. You were feeling just as hurt, knowing that if Hugh hadnât entered your life when he did or if you had talked to Pedro sooner, youâd give him another chance without a second thought.Â
âDoes he treat you good?â You almost scoff at the question, given whoâs asking, but you donât have the heart to be mean to him anymore. âYea he doesâŠâ You smile at the thought of just how well Hugh does treat you. âWell, then Iâm happy for you.âÂ
âAre you really or are you just trying to be nice?â You joke and he shrugs. âThe latter but truthfully if you were going to be with anyone other than myself, Iâm glad itâs him. Heâs good.â He smiles down at you and it almost reaches his eyes. âSpeaking of HughâŠyou kinda owe him an apology, mister.â You poke at the side of his chest that youâre not leaning on. âFor what? Stealing my girl?â His words make your tummy stir. âI wasnât your girl anymore. You called him old and yelled at him. Heâs your friend, so apologize.âÂ
âHe is old.â You punch his arm and give him a look. âOw..fuck. Fine, Iâll apologize but Iâm not sure how buddy buddy I can be with him anymore.â âI donât really care about that, as long as youâre nice to him.âÂ
He doesnât respond. You spend a few minutes feeling the warmth of his embrace, it was something you were going to miss. As much as you loved Hugh, Pedro had been someone special to you and it hurt to let him go, even with what he put you through.Â
âHow much longer do my pictures have on your instagram before Iâm replaced by Hugh?â He jokes and your eyes go wide. âOh fuck meâŠâ You had completely forgotten about the pictures that littered your page. âI will.â He smirks. âShut the fuck up. Iâm deleting them in front of your face just for saying that.â You whip out your phone. There are a few texts from Hugh on the homescreen asking how itâs going. âIâm surprised your guard dog let you come alone.â âOh believe me, he didnât want me to but heâs in New York and couldnât stop me.â You open instagram. âAnd for that comment, I'm making you press delete on these. You can feel the finalization of us being over. Consider it punishment for being such a dick.â He laughed and pressed delete on the first one.Â
In the third picture, you started to regret this âpunishmentâ. âWe were a cute couple. You remember that one? Thatâs when you came over and we fucked like rabbits all week-â âOkay your done. Give me my phone.â You shove him away after and he lets out a deep belly laugh. The sound made you pause for a moment. This was the Pedro you had enjoyed being around. It was always so easy to joke around with him and be yourself. You would miss him.Â

Chapter 1: Exposed
âSo, do you think you can make it?â Megumi asks, taking a sip of his coffee and looking at you inquisitively. âTo my family event, the reunion thing, I mean.â
You hadnât thought about it much. Sipping on your tea, you contemplated. Youâve never met Megumiâs extended family; you had no idea what they would be like. Megumiâs family is huge, and it would be a multi-day event held at their estate. âOh, what the hell. I have nothing better to do during winter break anyways.â
His face lights up a bit at your confirmation, but Megumi tries his hardest to hide it. You can see the blush creeping across his nose, his cheeks, even reaching the tips of his ears. He was like a little puppy, excited to see you.
âMake sure to bring any nice clothes you want to wear, but there will be pajamas and toiletries provided to you.â He finished his drink and moved to throw his away. âAre you done too?â
You felt bad, you had a little bit of your tea left and he was patiently waiting for you to finish to throw your trash away for you. You hurriedly suck up the remainder of the tea through the straw, and hand him the empty cup. âThanks, Megs.â You chirp.
Megumi blushes and looks away as he takes your cup from your hands.
--
Youâre back at your house, frantically packing last minute before Megumi comes over to pick you up. Youâve always been an overpacker, and you have no idea what to expect. You throw all sorts of garments into a pile that you want to take: casual clothes like leggings and hoodies, dresses and formalwear, and intimates. You blush, picking up matching sets of underwear and bras. You decide to toss them onto the pile anyways, better prepared than not. You didnât know who you were âpreparingâ for, but felt your cheeks flush anyways. Iâm meeting my close friendâs extended party and Iâm packing lingerie, am I a fucking creep? You shake your head, trying to shake the thoughts out too.
You finish stuffing your clothes into your bags, packing some makeup and skincare that they probably wouldnât have available. Just as you finish zipping your second bag, you hear a loud knock on the front door. Itâs Megumi.
You open the door with a soft smile, greeting Megumi. âThanks for picking me up Megs! Can you help me with my other bag?â
He looks down to where youâre gesturing, noticing the other bag. âJeez ____, itâs a 3 day party. How many clothes do you need?â
You blush, sheepishly. âI just want to be prepared⊠yâknow?â Megumi huffs and groans before picking up both bags. A lady should never have to carry her own bags, and he noticed it seemed like you were struggling with how heavy these bags were, being packed to the absolute brim.
âT-thanks, Megs.â You croak out as you follow behind him to his car. He doesnât reply, hoisting your bags in the trunk before slamming it shut. You open the door and sit in the passenger side, buckling your seatbelt with an audible click. He gets in shortly after you, adjusting his seatbelt and turning the car on.Â
The silence is thick, but not awkward. You and Megumi were comfortable around each other, not requiring a word to be said as you sat in comfortable silence on the drive to his familyâs estate. Your curiosity got the better of you, and you ask Megumi, breaking the silence, âSo what are the plans for the event? How big is it going to be, anyways?â
Megumi answers you, not taking his eyes off the road. âIt will have pretty much my entire family, extended family, and family friends. Thereâs lots to do at our estate, from the gardens, movie room, bar room, and more. As for planned events, music and lots of food, maybe dancing?â His tone ends questioningly, he knows his family isnât particularly fond of frivolous activities like dancing, but there might still be some as more people loosen up.
You nod, taking in his answer. This sounds almost a little exciting. Much better than spending time holed up in your room, studying or watching youtube.
--
Megumi pulled up to the grandiose estate. âWow Gumi, I knew your family was loadedâŠ. But not THIS loaded,â You gasped in awe. The entire property was large enough to be a mini village. You were shocked, to say the least. The beautiful landscaping, trees, the koi pond that connected into a river surrounding the main building⊠it was all too beautiful.
âYeah, they are wealthy on a whole different level,â he responds, as he pops the trunk and retrieves your bags. âUsually they have servants around, but Iâll show you around the estate myself instead.â He starts walking towards the front entrance, you follow him closely behind, not wanting to get lost.
Megumi doesnât even have to open the door, servants inside let him in as soon as he approaches. He briskly walks along the pavilion, turning left towards a long corridor. You try to match pace, but his long legs gives him an advantage. You take this moment, a few paces behind Megumi, to admire his raven locks bouncing as he walked.
As youâre walking, you pass an entryway, seeing a few figures to your right. Someone clicks their tongue. âI see my cousin Megumi understands,â he starts, eyes following your figure as you walk past him, âthat a womanâs place is three steps behind a manâs.â This mysterious man, related to Megumi, smirks as your figure disappears.
âDonât listen to him. Heâs so full of shit itâs festering,â Megumi spits out. He seems to really hate whoever that guy was. Megumi leads you to a room down a quiet corridor and opens the door. âThis will be your room for the next few nights,â He announces as he enters the room and sets your bags down. âMy room is on the other side of the estate. These are the guest rooms. We can check mine out later, if youâre interested.â He flushes at that last part, looking down and uncomfortably shifting his weight. âAnyways, I have to clean up before dinner in an hour. Iâll be back to see you soon.â
Megumi retreats from your room and closes the door behind him. You decide to unpack, putting things in the drawers and hanging some items in the closet. The room was quite spacious, with its own bathroom attached and adjacent to this room.
You havenât finished unpacking yet but decided to take a quick shower just to freshen up. You scope out the bathroom and quickly shut the door behind you. Turning the shower on to a scalding hot temp, you wait for it to heat up as steam fills the bathroom. You strip and enter the shower.
--
He stalks the hallway you were walking through but a moment ago. Heâs insanely curious as to what you look like up close, intrigued by your fleeting form as you walked by behind Megumi. He wondered if you were his toy, you following Megumi like a puppy definitely gave off that message.
He can still smell a lingering scent of citrus and flowers. He knows itâs you, because women of the clan are usually not permitted to walk this side of the estate anyways. Heâs following your trail, like a predator following its prey. He sees the faint glow of light coming from the crack of a door and approaches it.
He knocks once. No response. He knocks twice. Still nothing. Naoya Zenin believed he was a gentleman, but he had his limits. This was his future estate, he believed he had every right to know every single thing going on under this roof.
He lets himself in, and immediately sees the cracked bathroom door, a bit of steam escaping. He hears you humming while taking a shower, and smirks. He silently closes the door, and makes his way towards your plush bed. He sees a bag open, clothes strewn about. Something frilly and lacy catches his eye, and he walks towards the table instead. He picks the article of clothing up, noticing he was holding a black thong, laces and bows, adorned with gems along the thin waistband. He licked his lips, unholy thoughts flooding his brain.
He hears you shut off the shower, and quickly pockets the garment, swiftly moving to sit on the edge of the bed. A few moments pass, and the door of the bathroom swings open. Steam floods your room, quickly dissipating. You have a towel wrapped around your body, still humming as you walk towards your pile of clothes. You had set a specific set on top to put on after your shower. You could have sworn the thong was there, but as you rummaged through your bag the garment was nowhere to be seen.
âLooking for these, little miss?â You gasp and turn around to see a man sitting on your bed, holding up your thong with 1 finger, while smirking and eyeing you down. You nearly drop your towel, but regain composure.
âWho are you?â You ask, unsure of why a strange man youâve never seen before let himself into your room.
âMy apologies, doll, I didnât mean to scare you. My name is Naoya Zenin. Iâm set to be the next heir of the clan and estate,â he smirks, âAnd I figured I should personally introduce myself to you. It would be impolite of me not to do so. Who are you?â
âIâm _____, Megumiâs friend. He invited me over to meet all his family.â His ears perked up at you mentioning your friendship with Megumi, a devious thought crossing. You were still in your towel, cold air further cooling your already wet skin.
âYou didnât answer my first question, little miss. Were you planning on wearing these?â He practically spins the panties around his finger, staring you down intently. âI didnât think such a good girl would bring something like this to wear when meeting her friendâs familyâŠâ He trails off.
A blushes creeps along your face, you didnât think someone would know. You didnât think someone would barge into your room, look through your clothes, and tease you about it. You couldnât even look Naoya in the eye, shame clearly on display on your features.
âDonât worry, woman, I wonât tell anyone. You wouldnât want your close friend, Megumi, to know about this right? I wonât tell; however, my silence has a price.â He finishes his comment, smirking at you. His sultry gaze was locked on you, scanning your body from head to toe. He grinned and licked his lips, thinking about how he could manipulate you.
âWhat do you mean?â You look up at him, confused and unsure about the situation. âWhat do I have to do?â At that question, Naoya lifts himself from your bed to make his way towards you. His gaze never once leaving yours, making intense eye contact that sent shivers down your spine and left you trembling. You felt like prey being stalked by a predator.
Naoya is right in front of you now, as he grabs both wrists with his hands and lifts them above your head. Youâre startled but have no time to react as he pushes you against a wall, wrists pinned above you. You can feel Naoyaâs hot breath tickling your cheek, making you lose all sense of rationality. He grins at you, looking down as he has you in a position you canât easily free yourself from. Your head hangs low, looking down, trying to stifle your heavy breathing. You donât want him to know his actions are affecting you.
âI know women are dumb, but seriously, how can you not know what I mean? At least youâre prettyâŠ.â He leaves his sentence unfinished, bringing a cold hand to your chin and tilting your head to look at him. âLittle miss, Iâll explain it to you once, in an easy way to understand. I want to use you. Your body, specifically. Will you be a good girl and let me? Or do you want me to make you.â Naoyaâs tone drops a bit, almost grunting at the end. Thoughts about what âusing youâ entails floods your mind. Youâre inexperienced, but not entirely clueless. Your blush deepens as you look into his eyes, now peering down at you.
You didnât think being degraded and praised in the span of a few seconds would entice you as much as it would. Normally youâre a very independent woman, fully capable of realizing your own dreams and pursuing your own goals. But something⊠something about being put down but also called a good girl sent you driving up the wall with insanity. You were hooked near instantly.
âYes sir,â you meekly respond, looking up at Naoya. Your emotions and lust are on clear display for him, and heâs enjoying every second of it.
âGood girl.â He smirks. âJust to be clear, I have very specific tastes and like to be pleased in a certain way. Try and make me proud, you dumb whore.â Your cheeks flared red at the insult. âOpen your mouth, cunt.â
You made no hesitation to fulfill his command. He still had a firm grip on your chin, leaning down as he spit into your mouth. âSwallow, princess.â He instructs as he pushes your mouth closed. You comply, feeling more heat pooling between your legs. âGood girl,â he purrs as you open your mouth to show him.
He leans back into you, lips crashing into yours. He nips at your bottom lip, drawing a tiny bit of blood as he goes back to kissing you. He can taste the blood mixed with both of your saliva as he forces his tongue into your mouth, trying to push his way into every part of you he can. His hand previously at your chin is moving down toward your neck, resting into a firm grip across your neck. You can still breathe, but the firm pressure while heâs sloppily kissing you elicits a few soft moans from you into his mouth. You canât tell, but heâs grinning as his grip increases a bit. He pulls away before taunting you, âDo you like that? Huh? Are you a masochist or something?â Heâs not relenting, grip strengthening as youâre looking up at him, tears beginning to form in your eyes.
Youâre unable to speak, so you try to nod your head to show him that heâs right. He notices and loosens his grip before moving his hand towards your chest. âGood girl,â he praises you. âI like that.â He leaves kisses in a trail from your lips to your neck, kissing over the faint marks his hands left before. Youâre still against the wall, hands above your head, and he released his other grip before picking you up and carrying you to your bed.
âNext time, I want to see you wear that slutty fucking lingerie you brought. Youâre such a dirty girl.â He peers down at you as youâre left exposed on your bed. Heâs crawling above you, pushing you into the mattress. He gives you a few impatient kisses before moving back to your chest, grabbing one of your breasts while his mouth moves to the other. His other hand is fervently roamed your body, moving down your tummy towards your hips and eventually resting on your thigh. His hands were soft but rough trailing along your skin, as if he was searching for something.
Naoyaâs hand slips to your inner thigh, just shy of your exposed cunt. He lightly grips it as he starts leaving a trail of kisses down your body as he took his hand from your breast and pushed your thighs apart. He left love bites and marks as he made his way to your cunt, stopping to look up at you. He grinned as he spit on one of his fingers, prodding its way through your folds to find your clit. Heâs been with many women, and although he has an arrogant attitude, he does know exactly how to please a woman.
He rubs circles around your clit as his mouth leaves a little bite mark against your inner thigh. You softly moan at the pain as Naoyaâs eyes flick up to meet yours. Although you canât see it, youâre sure he has that asshole smirk of his. Your suspicions are pretty much confirmed when he says âAre you some masochist? Some dumb bitch who likes to be hurt. For real?â You think you heard a laugh as he moved his finger down to your hole, spitting some more before he fucked you with a finger. You didnât need any more lube, you were practically drenched. He pushed his finger in, feeling how tight your hole was with only one of his fingers.
âYou have the tightest cunt Iâve ever felt. Iâm impressed. Are you a virgin too?â He looked up at you, expecting an answer.
âYeah..â You tried to hide your face with your hands, embarrassed at your lack of experience. Naoya saw it differently though. His cock twitched in his pants as you replied, and he started moving his finger inside your tight cunt. He loved hearing the little moans you make as he slipped his finger in and out, a lewd wet sound filling the room. He was trying to get you used to it, but he was getting impatient. He was already working harder for any woman heâs ever been with.
His mouth moved above your clit, tongue flicking around the sensitive bud as he slipped in another long finger into your hole. He curled and scissored his fingers, trying to stretch you as his fingers fucked you faster. Your face was flush with embarrassment as you still tried to contain some of your moans. One more finger slipped in, stretching your walls while he moved above you, face aligned with yours.
He kept fingering your cunt as he aggressively kissed you, biting your lip before he shoved his tongue into your mouth. You could feel yourself come closer to the edge, your core tightening. You were moaning into his mouth, arms wrapped around his neck pulling his body closer into yours.
âFuck... NaoyaâŠâ you whined out as you felt the thread about to snap, âIâm gonnaâcum!!â His fingers slammed into your cunt as he was leaving marks along your neck. You felt your walls tighten around his fingers as he expertly prepped your cunt for the main event.
âYouâre such a good girl⊠I almost feel bad taking your virginity. Almost.â Naoya takes out his fingers, sucking on a few of them to taste you. He pushes one of his fingers into your mouth, commanding you to taste your own cunt. âNext time Iâll taste you myself⊠but I canât wait any longer,â he says as heâs taking off his shirt and pants, pulling down his briefs to expose his large cock. He moves up above you again, grabbing your legs by the ankle as his body is pushed against yours. Heâs putting you in a mating press. He moves the tip to your entrance and spits on his cock before slowly pushing inside, feeling your tight walls around his girthy cock.
He gives you time to adjust, but it isnât nearly enough. Naoya has been kind enough, but he always takes what he wants. Still, he will be nice one last time. âIâm gonna fuck you how I want to now, okay whore? Youâre gonna be a good girl and take it anyways, right?â He gives you no time to prepare as he slams into you, bottoming out, forcibly deflowering you. The pain hurts, but Naoya is relentless. He pulls out and briefly gives you a moment of respite before slamming his cock back into your cunt. Despite the pain, the feeling is like never before as his body is pushed against yours, cock ramming in and out of your hole. Your cute moans are like music to his ears.
He leans down towards your face, seeming like heâs going to kiss you but instead spits on you. He moves a hand to grasp around your throat as youâre looking up at, unable to make any sound as his cock abuses your hole. The pressure and lack of air make your head feel dizzy as he spits again, degrading you. âYou like that too, huh, stupid slut.â He hips pick up speed, pulling out before repeatedly bottoming out into your cunt. He lets go of your neck, allowing you to gasp for air. He would never admit it, but the sound of you struggling to breathe drives him insane.
He spits on his hand and moves it to your clit, fervently rubbing your bud, bringing you closer to your second orgasm of the night. You feel the waves of pleasure overwhelm your body as heâs raw dogging your cunt and relentlessly abusing your clit. Your moans are laced with pleasure, dripping with your ecstasy as you cum over Naoyaâs cock, tightening your walls around him.
Naoya mercilessly fucks your virgin hole like he deserves it, like itâs owed to him. Whatever he wants, he gets. Heâs grunting as moaning as he picks up speed, fucking you like an animal. âHey bitch, ah fuckâIâm gonna cum in you. Youâre gonna take it like a good girl alright?â He lightly slaps your face as heâs finishing his sentence, bottoming out for the last time before he slams back inside your cunt and paints your insides white. You can feel the warmth of his seed filling you; thereâs so much of it that it leaks out, a lewd sight before Naoya as he looks down at where youâre both connected. Before he can pull out and clean himself, the door to the guest room slightly creaked open as if it had been left ajar, not fully closed. Naoya cursed himself for not closing and locking the door.
--
Megumi had been standing there for not even 5 minutes when he went to check on you and bring you to dinner. He was approaching your room when he heard faint moaning coming from your room. He was confused and curious, stopping in front of your door as he noticed it was left slightly open. What he saw left him shocked and speechless, unable to move or avert his gaze through the crack.
He heard you more than he could see you clearly, but your moans that are more beautiful than a symphony of angels was more than enough to make Megumiâs cock strain in his pants. He peered closer, unable to see who was fucking you but still able to see your bodies colliding. He couldnât deny how erotic it was to see you get fucked, but a twang of jealousy and pain struck his heart that he wasnât the one making your body shake in pleasure.
He hears a voice, it sounds familiar although he canât quite place it, telling you heâs about to cum. Megumi leans forward more, slightly pushing the door as he watches the other man breed you. Just as the door squeaks, the manâs head whips to see the door and he makes eye contact with Megumi.
--
â____, what are you doing?â Megumi questions as he practically stumbles into the room. You lift your head to see Megumi looking at you and Naoya in horror. Shame and embarrassment overcome you, and you move to cover yourself with some blankets as Naoya got off of you and faced Megumi,
âI think itâs more appropriate to ask what are you doing, Megumi?â Naoyaâs staring daggers into Megumi; heâs unaffected that his family member caught him in a compromising position, almost as if heâs used to it.
âI was coming to get ___ for dinner⊠I didnât realize she was busy being a disgusting fucking whore and sleeping with my family though.â He looks over to you, making eye contact as he sees tears form in the corners of your eyes. He doesnât actually think youâre disgusting, quite the opposite in fact. But heâs so upset that someone else got to be with you first, and Naoya of all people. As if that scum deserved to be with someone like you.
Naoya could instantly tell what was going on here. He can read Megumi like a book, and smirks as he grabs fistfuls of your hair and pulls you against his chest to taunt Megumi. âLooks like you lost. This is why Iâve always been superior to you. You wanted this little slut, huh? Mad that I broke her in first, arenât you?â His voice is laced with amusement as he provokes Megumi. He pulls your head to be almost level with his as he spits onto your face. âYour little friend is quite the slut, I had a lot of fun using her like the whore she is. She probably wouldnât even mind if you joined in, isnât that right bitch?â
Despite the predicament you were in, you couldnât help but feel aroused at Naoyaâs manhandling and suggestion of Megumi joining in. It had never crossed your mind, although Megumi is quite attractive, you didnât think he was interested. You were only able to mutter out a small âyesâ as you look over to Megumi, noticing the flush in his cheeks reaching all the way to the ends of his ears, and the straining bulge in his pants.
âIâm sorry, ___... Be good for me, please?â He was almost pleading as he was walking over to the bed, already starting to strip.
âYou can hurt her and call her names, that dumb whore likes it.â Naoya says, moving aside to let Megumi have easier access to you. Youâre still lying on your back, barely recovered from getting your guts rearranged only minutes before. Megumi stands in front of you before kneeling down to get at eye level with your cunt. Naoya hadnât been able to get up since Megumi stumbled into the room; because of this, your womb was filled to the brim with Naoyaâs hot cum leaking out of your small hole. Megumiâs eyes were immediately locked on at the lewd sight before him when he used both hands to grip your thighs and spread them apart.
He moved a slender finger past your leaking hole, scooping a bit of cum up with his fingers as he dragged his finger across your clit. The sharp inhale and moan you made sounded absolutely divine to Megumi, urging him to keep going. âGood girlâŠâ he purrs, as he moves his long fingers down to your hole again, once again scooping another glob of cum. âSit up, slut,â He commands as he stands up. You comply, not willing to play any games in a situation like this. He shoves his cum covered fingers into your mouth; you lap it up and suck his fingers without having to be told anything. Megumi grins. âGood girl, ____. Such a good girl.â
âI bet you like that, donât you slut?â You hear Naoyaâs remark from aside you, heâs watching all of this unfold right before him. Megumi takes his fingers out of your mouth, Naoya grips you with fistfuls of hair and forces you to look at him. âAnswer me, bitch.â He glares at you intensely.
âYes⊠yes sir⊠I do.â You try to look anywhere except him but Naoya isnât having it.
âWhen men are speaking, you show them the respect they deserve. That means you answer clearly and fucking pay attention. Got it?â He tugs your head to face him, leaning in closer until heâs only a few inches from your face. âOpen your mouth, bitch. And donât swallow until I tell you to.â You comply and he spits into your mouth, before closing the gap and letting his lips crash into yours. He bites your lip, drawing blood. The metallic essence mixes with his spit before Naoya leans back and instructs you to swallow. It feels perverse and humiliating to admit that it turned you on.
Megumi dropped onto his knees again, this time pushing his slender fingers into your cunt. It feels different this time for you; heâs gentler as he stretches you open. He takes his time adding more fingers, taking in every moment and feeling.
âLetâs change the position, yeah Megumi?â Naoya says it more as a statement and less of a question as heâs already moving to rest on the bed against the wall, pillows propping him up. He pulls you away from Megumi while simultaneously flipping you onto your tummy. He pulls you into his lap, supporting your arms until youâre able to prop yourself up above his cock. One hand grips the back of your head and pulls you closer to his thick cock. He pulls you by your hair, aligning your mouth with the tip of his cock as he forcefully shoves your head down. You nearly gag, pushing against him as he tries to use your mouth. Despite your resistance, Naoya doesnât seem to care and is chasing his own high using you to get him off. You take him into your mouth, inexperienced but trying to adjust quickly. Naoya gives you barely any time to try and settle within the rhythm heâs created. You basically gag on his cock every time he plunges it slightly deeper than the last, but this only enhances Naoyaâs pleasure.
While Naoyaâs aggressive use of your mouth is going on, Megumi is taking his time to explore you from behind. His fingers are touching every part of your body he can get to, settling on your ass that he starts to spread apart. Heâs entranced by the glistening of your cunt in the light, lost in thought about how lewd you look taking Naoyaâs cock while bent over for him like a full course meal. Heâs done with his âinspectionâ and moves one of his slender fingers to your entrance. He slips it in easily, listening to you moan with a cock stuffed in your mouth. Naoya pushes your head down farther along his length, trying to hit the back of your throat. You try to control your breathing in time with his rhythm.
Megumi slips another finger inside, stretching your cunt. âFuck, ____, I didnât think you were this tight.â He groans as he starts fucking you with his fingers. The lewd sounds he forces out you vibrate around Naoyaâs cock. His other hand is grabbing fistfuls of your hair, face fucking you harder as your dripping cunt takes another of Megumiâs fingers. Megumi picks up pace, bringing another hand to your clit to add extra stimulation, but mostly so he can see you writhe and squirm under him while trying to hold yourself up.
âWill you be a good girl for me and cum, ___?â Megumi coos, stringing you along with his praises. âYou look like such a dirty girl right now, already about to cum with just my fingers. So cute.â He finger fucks you harder now, making lewd wet noises as his fingers slam back into your pussy. His other hand is toying with your clit, drawing circles and rubbing the little button to bring you closer to your ecstasy. You can feel the knot tightening in your stomach, feeling yourself be pushed over the edge with his fingers alone.
Naoya thrusts into your throat, choking you and momentarily leaving you without air as Megumi pushes you over the edge. You feel your cunt tighten around his fingers as the waves of pleasure wash over you, the lack of air adding to your heightened senses. You moan as youâre cumming, giving just enough sensation to Naoya for him to creampie your throat. His cum is being forced down your throat, yet thereâs still so much that some leaks from the corners of your mouth as his cock is pushed against the back of your throat. He finally shows mercy and pulls out as youâre coming down from your high. You force yourself to as much as you can before gasping for air, panting as you trying to calm down again.
âYou did a good job taking all of me, slut.â Naoya grins as he lifts your chin with one of his fingers, leaning down to give you a kiss as you share his cum in your mouth. You didnât think heâd be into some perverted shit like that, yet heâs basically tongue fucking your mouth still full of his cum. He pulls away, a long string of saliva and cum still connecting you two.
Megumi watches you two, his cock throbbing so intensely it almost hurts. He wastes no time in pulling his pants and boxers down before spitting in his hand and lubing his cock up. Heâs shuffling behind you, lining himself up with your cunt before he pushes in at full force, giving you no time to adjust to his monstrous cock. You let out a yelp, air evacuating your lungs at the surprise intrusion. Heâs balls deep near instantly in your tight hole, stretching you open with a cock that is even girthier than Naoyaâs.
Naoya is watching you, grinning, and lazily stroking his cock. You have no idea how heâs able to keep going for multiple rounds, only a little bit of time in between. But you donât care. The man in front of you is irresistibly hot even though his attitude is garbage. You would do anything he asked no matter how degrading it is in hopes that he would manhandle you again. As these thoughts cross your mind, Megumi reels you back into reality as he pushes so deep into your womb youâre sure he probably bruised your cervix.
âYour pussy is amazing, sweetheart. You have no idea⊠hah.. how long Iâve been wanting this.â Megumi praises you, unable to control his breathy moans as he continues fucking you with full force. One of your arms is pulled to your side, Megumi interlocking fingers and holding your hand as he drills into you. Even in a situation like this, he canât help but do some cute shit.
His other hand lightly smacks your ass as you whimper in pleasure, unable to hide the fact that you like it a little rough. Megumi lets go of your hand as you feel both his arms snake around your waist, pulling you up and against his chest as he fucks you. Your back is to his chest, on full display for Naoya in front of you. His shiteating grin is plastered on his face as he has a front row view of Megumiâs cock sliding in and out of you. He gets up from his seated position to face you. Megumiâs arms are still wrapped around your body, supporting you as he drills into your cunt. You can feel his breath against your neck and hear his soft whimpers in your ear. âYouâre doing so well, slut. Such a good girl for me huh?â He whispers into your ear. His words send chills down your spine as he keeps ramming his cock into you, abusing your poor hole.
Naoya moves closer to you, his face only a few inches away from yours. He kisses you slowly, before aggressively trying to fill your mouth with his tongue. He pulls away, spits on your face, and lightly slaps your face. âYou love taking your friendâs cock, huh? Didnât think it would be that good, did you? Who knew youâd be the familyâs fuckdoll.â He chuckles at his degrading joke, but you couldnât help but internalize his words. You have no idea how you got to be in this situation, but you were definitely not complaining. Something about multiple men of the same family using you how they liked made your cunt drip at the mere thought of it.
Naoya moves his mouth to your neck, leaving little marks on your skin to prove he was there. Little bruises of his lust for you, marking your skin like youâre property. Megumi start pulling out with only the tip left inside, before bottoming out into your cunt. He groans beside you, lost in the addictive pleasure that is you. Megumi was no virgin, but he believed you were the best person heâs ever fucked, your body insanely attractive and your personality catching and reeling him, unable to resist you.
Naoya moves back before bringing a hand to your neck, gripping your throat and momentarily cutting off your oxygen. âMegumi⊠fuck this bitch harder when I choke her, okay? She fucking loves it.â And he wasnât wrong, you did love it. He gripped your throat, a smirk planted on his features as he watched you helpless and at his mercy. Some drool started dripping out of your mouth and you could feel your vision starting to haze around the edges. Megumi fucked into you harder, pulling you closer to his body. Naoya let his grip loosen a bit around your throat, enough to allow some air to fill your lungs again.
âIâm close, baby. Iâm gonna fill you up okay? Be a good girl and take all of it for me.â Megumi purrs beside you. Naoya takes this moment to strengthen the grip around your throat, cutting off your air. You feel Megumiâs speed pick up, him desperately chasing his orgasm. You can hear his staggered whimpers as he empties his load into your cunt, filling your already full womb even more. Naoya releases his hand from your throat, making you choke and gasp for air. Heâs looking down at you with sadistic satisfaction as you struggle to catch your breath.
Megumi pulls out and lets go of your waist, and you plop down onto the bed absolutely fucked out. Naoya is quick to get off the bed and start dressing. He finishes so quickly itâs as if he was speedrunning it (he has done this many, many, MANY times before). He gives you a quick peck on the lips and gently rubs your cheek before starting to walk towards the door. âSee you soon, slut,â he says as he walks out, closing the door behind him this time. Megumi returns with a clean towel, gently cleaning you up as you just lay their like a limp fish.
âYou did so well for me. Thank you,â he says as he kisses your cheeks and then your lips before pulling away and picking up some clothes for you. He tosses you a simple outfit to wear and begins dressing himself as well. âReady for dinner? Youâre gonna meet the rest of my family now.â You nod your head yes, anticipating who else youâre going to meet.

Okay, okay, so...
idk if you already made this but I would be so happy if you do this..
Megumi x reader- teens. SFW
.Cuddling...... both Gumi and reader are like- grumpy and have a soft spot for each other (this appeared in my head randomly but I'm lazy to write it oopss)đ
yes! this is a nice wholesome change in the midst of my content. i will age him up to at least 18 since yk im imagining it (despite it being sfw i know!!) i hope this doesnt disappoint you :( <3
pairing: reader (f) x bf!megumi (aged up)
synopsis: do two stubborn people make them docile? no, but their chemistry in cuddling is quite the tango
warning: SFW, fluff xo
a/n: i hope this fulfills your req anon. i apologize if i didnt do it justice!
"y/n, please tell him something!" Yuji moaned.
You and the gang found yourselves at a small omakase restaurant near the mission you all just completed. Nobara, Megumi, and you came out unscathed, whereas Yuji was roughened up by the curses you all recently exterminated.
Because of this, he was currently victim to Megumiâs light teasing.
"I don't know what you want me to do about that," you murmur as Megumi casually gets ahead of you to hold to the door for both you and Nobara. When Yuji follows suit, Megumi enters himself, barely leaving the door open for the pink-haired sorcerer.
"See?" Yuji cries from behind. Nobara rushes over and punches his arm, telling him to be lower his voice as the restaurant was a quiet space. You all speak to the assistant up at the front, who guides you towards the room reserved with the rest of your friends.
Opening the sliding door, you're met with Toge, Maki, and Yuta. You all greet one another while filing inside. "There's a space by the window," Megumi hums near your ear. As you take your seat, Yuji attempts to sit next to you. But, Megumi quickly puts his forearm in front of Yuji's stomach, and stops him at his tracks.
"Nobody likes a possessive boyfriend," Yuji teases.
"Speak for yourself," you muttered.
Megumi quietly grins as he takes his seat beside you, followed by a cheeky grinned Nobara. "He's calling you a dork in his head," Nobara loosely translates, earning a stuck out tongue by Yuji. You smile weakly at the other higher grade sorcerers before leaning back against the window. Toge silently pours you a cup of green tea and offers it to you, in which you gladly accept.
"What happened to you guys?" Maki's eyes sift between you 4. "You look like you've been to hell and back."
Nobara gently rubs her eyes while speaking, "the curses were in an abandoned asylum. Supposedly a lot of gang and dangerous activities were being held here, and scared students often explored it to prove themselves to their friends."
"The rooms were endless!" Yuji exclaimed. "It was like a maze, it was horrible."
Megumi huffs, "the reason it felt endless was because you aimlessly entered each room even though we found a map." Your hand finds its way to Megumi's thigh and you give him a poke. He clears his throat.
Yuji crosses his arms defiantly, "maybe the map wasn't updated!"
"The asylum is abandoned, you moron!" Nobara seethed.
As everyone continued to discuss their missions, Megumi looked over at you worriedly. You had your eyes close, you were exhausted. In moments, you felt a warm oshibori on your forehead, and a hand grabbing your own under the table. You open your eyes slightly, noticing Megumi smiling down at you. He squeezes your hand reassuringly before allowing you to rest your eyes once again.
Making your way back to school, Megumi and you went your separate ways from the team to go back to his dorm. You changed out of your outfit and slid into one of Megumi's large sweatshirts and sweatpants. He watches you drag your feet from the bathroom and into his bed.
"m'sorry that you couldn't wear your favorite one," Megumi murmurs while folding his uniform. "I forgot that I left it in the hamper during my last wash." Megumi himself was also comfortable in a navy blue sweat set.
"It's okay," you whisper, pulling up his heavy quilt over your body. He smiles to himself from your actions, knowing how exhausted you were. "Come here," you say softly.
Megumi obliges, picking up the blanket before getting on the bed. He settles beside you, taking a moment to get comfortable. He looks down at you, smiling warmly. He pulls up the hem of his sweatshirt and gently taps your forehead. "Come in, baby."
You blindly pat around, your hand finding its way on his torso. You snake over to him and get into his sweatshirt, freeing your head in his loose collar. Megumi fixes the blanket to cover you completely. As he lays down and settles in more, you fix your face into the crook of his neck.
His strong arms embrace you, his hands running up and down your back. His warmth was intoxicating. He smelled of frankincense and nature. Though his collarbone was sharp, his skin was soft, and he was still comfortable enough to rest on like this. He gives you light squeezes, with one hand going over to your hair.
Gently, he massages the back of your head with little rubs of his finger tips, truly making you just seconds away from passing out. "You can sleep if you want," Megumi croaks, he himself just as exhausted. "We don't have another mission for the next few days."
"mmm," you moan exhaustively. He was your solace, his words imbued with care and safety. "Can we go get food later?" You whisper against the heat of his neck. His Adams apple gently dents your cheek when he swallowed.
"I'll get you whatever your heart desires," Megumi hums, squeezing you lovingly. "Now sleep."

âthatâs called stalking weirdoâ you hear a voice say. you turn around just to see mark. not very surprising as you were supposed to meet with him to hangout âshe likes it, donât worryâ jisung replies before leaving âman this guyâs so weirdâ you hear your friend whisper (more to himself than you) âyou donât sayâ
âhallelujah i am NOT with jisung in my group this is bliss. i want to thank the lord, my family and friends for getting me here. i am so proud to be here today besides you. this moment is so much bigger than me.â nothing could begin to describe the amount of joy you felt when you opened your email and saw that your name was nowhere near jisungâs. even mark was tense, he had his fingers and toes crossed for you. when you saw that your partner was this really nice (you assumed, you barely have any friends so you didnât talk to her)
âdo you feel relieved?â mark asked finally letting his fingers and toes un cross âfuck yea i do, i literally can avoid jisung for the rest of this semester this is what i dreamt of my whole life dudeâ you take your phone to text your partner seeing that she had already texted you. âno fucking wayâ was all you could utter
10. no fucking way
previous chapter masterlist next chapter
notes: i moved to seoul lmao and itâs just so fucking weird?? like i arrived yesterday at like 10 am and i lowkey (highkey) want to go back home. idk i just know that iâll have a hard time here and knowing that the next time i see my family is in months makes me sad lmao. plus itâs hard bc everyone is like omg you must be so excited n stuff and im like noooo i want to go back homeeeeee. plus i have to take classes that are harder so even academically wise im gonna struggle. but anyway im done complaining! i know this is someoneâs dream probably so i should be more grateful but itâs a bit hard rn ngl lmao

Yan Shadow milk x Gender neutral reader? (Oneshot)
Enjoy the milkshake! I brainstormed this for a while but I came up with an idea, I would wait for the smilk update but Iâm not that patient
Idk if this reads off as yandere sooooo-
Just a little TLC
-Romantic or Platonic-
!TW! Under the cut will be themes like obsessivness, harming another and trying to change someoneâs identity ig?
Boring. Thatâs the best way Shadow Milk could describe Pure Vanillas life. Heâs been watching the fool for years now and while itâs fun to see his guilt and stuff but something interesting needed to happen!
Thatâs when Pure Vanilla met you.
At first you werenât anything special, just some cookie who was dragged to Pure Vanillas Kingdom by the brave kid. Honestly you were quite boring.
But that aided in your appeal! You were so basic that Shadow Milk started to feel an⊠itch. An itch to make you interesting, an itch to turn you into something entertaining!
The thought of you being something more consumed his thoughts, you looked nice, but not unique enough. Youâre personality was fun, but not fun enough!
You needed a little TLC, and that was fine! He was going to help you stand out and be the most interesting and amazing cookie to exist!
Heâd make sure of it.
âââââââââââââ
You put your hand on Pure Vanillas shoulder in a panic, he wasnât moving, he was just blankly staring at the tree. The seal had been broken and there was a chill in the air. But then⊠it felt like the chill was in your dough. The coldness of your dough and others checking on Pure Vanilla broke him from chance.
Everyone was tense, this Shadow Milk fella was ominous. You felt his gaze on you. It was locked onto you. You shifted around uncomfortably, the cookies around you noticed this. Elder Faerie stepped infront of you, he seemed determined yet a little part of him was anxious⊠I wonder whyâŠ
âAh this is quite the audience! I will need a volunteer for my show stopping performance though! Now who to choose..â Shadow Milk looked at everyone like he was going to pluck someone away for his âperformanceâ
There was a strong pause before you felt your limbs being pulled up slightly, before you felt yourself get jerked up harshly.
âY/N COOKIE!â As strings dig into your skin, Elder Faerie jumped up to try and grab your hand, but you slipped away from him like sand
âNow you look like youâd be a good puppet! Although⊠you need some extra flair, but donât worry about that! Iâll fix your right up so youâll be perfect!â
You felt a chil go up your spine as a darkness crept into your mind. Your vision also blanked out.
âŠ.
âŠ
..
.
You woke up with concerned eyes on you, and a burning sensation in your arms. Pure Vanilla was looking over your arms. âWhat⊠happenedâŠ?â You questioned, there was a silence, no one was expecting you to not remember whatâs happened, but Strawberry Cookie spoke up
âYou became one of Shadow Milks Puppets⊠I donât think things went well for you..â she gestured to your arms. You looked down and saw that your arms were cut up, presumably from those strings from earlier
You saw that you were a mess, your hair felt messy and not to mention that some of your clothes had been switched to more of a jester like outfit.
âWhat about Elder FaerieâŠ?â Everyone was quiet. You could feel your heart sink. He was gone. But no one wanted to break the news⊠you felt tears starting to prick at your eyes.
You were sacred. You were confused. You wanted to go home, but with the crashed airshipâŠ
Home wasnât an option.
âââââââââââââ
Finally. You were in Shadow Milks grasp, you can finally become the star of the show that you were meant to be! Oh all the ideas that he had for you!
You were going to be perfect!
But⊠there was an unexpected issueâŠ
You were too unique.
Everything about you was boring yet not, no cookie looked like you, it was hard to decide what to change about you because you were so perfect yet imperfect!
It irritated him.
Shadow Milk had been planning on this for months! And now that your here he canât bring himself to do ANYTHING
He tried changing your outfit and hair style, HELL he even tried making you act out a scene of you laughing at the fools trying to seal him away and save you but it felt wrong. It frustrated him.
When those pesky cookies got closer to him it enraged him more. Everything was going wrong. He even threw you around a couple of times, your arms had jam on them and Shadow Milk swore he felt some form of remorse after it but it couldnât compare to is anger.
When you left his grasp it felt like a relief yet it felt painful. Seeing Pure Vanilla heal you made his jam boil.
But WHY?
WHATS SO SPECIAL ABOUT YOU?
One way or another⊠Shadow Milk was going to find outâŠ.

âAccidentallyâ sending Nerd!Armin a thirst trapđ€đ„Ž
Notes: Sorry for slow updates but iâve been busy with work and school is abt to start soon so itâs probably gonna get worseđ
Cw: nsfw, suggestive texting
- After a few weeks of hanging out and calling late at night of course you guys get comfortable with each other!
- School started getting serious as it was getting closer to mid terms so you and Armin stop calling each other so late.
- You kinda missed it ngl
- And so did heđ
- But you guys just stuck to the new routine of saying good night through text, maybe a âhow was your dayâ.
- One day you just wanted to spice things up!
- Your poor smart boy had his nose in textbooks and notecards every day and you could tell he was just so stressed out from studying all day. He had such a strong work ethic he would forget to take breaks and relax his brainđ
- âWhy do you study so much?? You could pass these exams with yo eyes closed!â You exclaimed.
- He just calmly responded with, âHow do you think i got so smart to begin with?â And then heâd go back to read his books while you playfully rolled your eyes.
- So anyways you just wanted to cheer him upâŠ
- Sooooo you âaccidentallyâ send him a cute little mirror pic.
- The plan was to play it off like it was meant for your friend as you were âtrying outâ a new one piece you bought and wanted an opinion.
- Omfg iâm so sorry! Youâd texted him. That was meant for someone else đđ
- Armin heard his phone go off next to him as he was starting his next group of flash cards.
- When he opened his phone to see the message he never felt his face so hot in his LIFE.
- He damn near got one of those anime nosebleeds.
- He never noticedâŠhow fine you wereâŠ
- He was so lucky he met you. That was the moment he realized he had to have you. But not yet of course. He decided to play it offâŠ
- Oh, itâs fine!đ
He replied and followed with a, You look niceâŠ
- You smiled big at his response. You just knew he was blushing like crazy at this pic you sent him.
- Thank you, Min minđâ€ïž
- Youâd spend time apologizing for interrupting
- Armin couldnât stop stareing at your pic all night. He couldnât think about anything else but you in that one piece. Armin never really felt this way about anyone before. You made him feel like he was going crazy.
- Yeah, he just had to make you his.
Notes: This has been in my drafts for like months đđđŸ idk where to go from here right now tbh but hereâs another continuation of my nerd armin series
#nerd armin#aot x black reader#armin x black reader#black reader#armin attack on titan#armin arlet x reader#armin x reader#armin imagines#nerd armin x black reader#armin x black !fem reader#x black fem reader#aot x reader#aot x poc!reader#nerd armin arlert

POKEMON SERIES RANKED (IMO)
I get this question a lot and haven't made an updated list with Journeys
Original Series (S1-S5)
Sun & Moon (S20-S22)
Chronicles (S0)
Diamond and Pearl (S10-S13)
Advanced (S6-S9)
Journeys (S23-S25)
Black & White (S14-S16)
XY (S17-S19)
Original Series (S1-S5)
OS had that first season charm. Very unpolished, still finding its footing but super enjoyable for those reasons
Probably the strongest series comedy-wise
That GORGEOUS 90s anime style
Main character dynamics were REALLY strong
Ash's personality felt much more like a shitty little 10 year old which was entertaining
Dub writing was also the best hands down
Sun & Moon (S20-S22)
Honestly tied for first with OS for me
REALLY fun ensemble cast! They do a fantastic job giving each character enough time for you to get to know and care about
Excellent modern anime style that perfectly fit the vibe of the season and allowed for some of the best character animation of the show's run
Finally figured out how to write Ash like a 10 year old again (but in a kind/sweet 10 year old way as opposed to OS)
Very different from previous series in terms of the formula they'd follow. Doing a school series instead of another "8 badges to championship" plot felt new and fresh!
This series genuinely made me cry the most (MEMORIES IN THE MIST!!!!! LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING ME)
Chronicles (S0)
Fun concept! It was really nice to see more of the side characters without Ash there. We get to see more of Misty, Tracey, Daisy, Brock, Ritchie, Oak, Delia, Butch, Cassidy, Jessie, James and Meowth!
Stylistically really nice. Just solid drawings all around and it retained the 90s anime style in digital form more successfully than other digitally done series imo
BUTCH AND CASSIDY!!! Team Rocket centric episodes!!! Training Daze!!!!!!!
Idk how possible it would have been (seems like a TON of work) but it made me want one of these in between each season, where we'd follow the characters that Ash had just said goodbye to for the next region.
Diamond and Pearl (S10-S13)
Series I grew up with! Honestly I was kinda a hater as a kid but having watched it back, I love the series
Love that Ash and Dawn were bros. They had a really fun dynamic.
Debatably peak Team Rocket. They had some of the best Team Rocket centric episodes this series.
Contests were really fun and a bit more figured out compared to the Advanced series
Fun, memorable rivals for Ash (Paul and Barry) as well as Dawn (Zoey, Kenny and Jessilina sometimes)
This is unfortunately where I stopped caring about Ash as much. He feels kinda watered down for the next couple series.
Advanced (S6-S9)
Pretty tied up with DP for me
Really fun series! Still had some of that early Pokémon charm
I appreciated that they put Ash in more of a mentor role for May (but he still had a lot to learn himself).
Ash and May constantly butting heads was really fun
May was a very compelling character to me, being very clumsy, kinda lazy, directionless, not really into Pokémon, etc. But then over time, she comes around and finds something she's interested in!
Journeys (S23-S25)
I love the episodic take as well as the way they let the characters jump around from region to region at random
Goh was a GREAT travel companion to Ash. They contrast each other nicely, have moments where they get on each others' nerves but still get along and have a mutual admiration for one another.
It was fun that they made Goh's thing catching every Pokémon (the motto of the entire series) so they could focus on Ash just training and prepping for Worlds.
Amaaaazing style. Took the great parts of classic Pokémon, roundness of SM and blended em together for a really fun look.
Black & White (S14-S16)
I don't think it's that controversial to have BW this low haha
I did enjoy Iris and Cilan but it felt like the writers didn't reaaally know what to do with them? Also this was their first time in a while not having Brock and it shows. I feel like Brock was successful because he was grounded and lower energy compared to the rest of the kids. Having 3 pretty eccentric characters is kind of a lot. No hate to the characters in the slightest, there was just not as much balance.
I think maybe they leaned on Cilan and Iris for more comedic relief because they killed the comedic relief that was Team Rocket this series. I appreciate them trying something new with Jessie, James and Meowth but I don't think it worked very well lol
XY (S17-S19)
I've ranted about this series a lot LOL. I get the appeal of it, but it just wasn't for me. I felt like it was the weakest comedy-wise and took itself a bit too seriously for my taste
My main gripe is that Serena, Clemont and Bonnie all like,,, worship Ash. By doing so, Ash begins to feel like a side character because we're constantly looking at Ash through their eyes. There's so little conflict within the group so their dynamics feel really flat. I think this dynamic could have worked if they leaned waaay more into Ash being a mentor and maybe feeling the pressure of having to be a role model for the people around him.
Team Rocket very much feels like an afterthought in this series. They did in Journeys as well, but at least in Journeys they were doing something silly and also had a handful of episodes dedicated to em.
Outside of that, the episodes weren't super memorable for me
I think it's just frustrating because there was sooooo much potential character-wise

VENT SESSION LETS GOOOO â youâre allowed to scroll if you donât care mwah
i spend an ungodly amount of hours on this app, and i look at you as my friends so just want to let you guys know
i am also a very nosy person myself, so seems only fair i share my own situation. but if you donât care about all this, you can just keep scrolling. i honestly donât mind lol
anyways⊠a few weeks ago, i told you guys i was going through something that was kinda heavy â yeah my bf and i were going through some stuff and started seeing someone professionally⊠we broke up
there was an understanding that this might be outcome when we first opened up this can of worms, and there turned out to be a lot of underlying issues that both of us had refused to acknowledge
it was definitely a mutual decision. though itâs a hard pill to swallow, we came to the conclusion it was the best for the both of us
we want such vastly different things in life, things neither of us should compromise on. to me, life came at me a lot faster than i anticipated and felt like there were things left unexplored â and neither of us want to hold the other person back from what we want
however, this is a person i have been with for six years, a quarter of my life. thereâs obviously a lot of shared history which is hard to let go of. itâs also so incredibly painful when weâre not splitting due to lack of affection and love for the other person, but because our desires and wants in life just donât align
he is still my best friend, and because of how our life situation is, we will continue living together as we have been doing for the past three years (he only lives here half the time due to work), until i move across the country when summer comes. weâre also going to celebrate christmas together because it just feels right lol
i would say i am doing as well as i can⊠we are obviously on good terms, but this is probably one of the hardest things iâll go through. it is the biggest heartbreak of my life. but that is really just a sign that the time weâve shared together havenât been a waste. we can be proud of the fact that weâve been honest, faithful, respectful and kind throughout the entirety of our relationship, to the point where this is so hard even though itâs the right decision
obviously, i am very scared of the path that lies ahead. he has been by my side for the better half of a decade, and i have the privilege of exploring things on my own. itâs obviously what i have been missing in my life, so i am excited for whatâs to come, but terrified of living a life heâs not going to be such a big part of anymore
but things are going to be fine. idk how long it will take, i am suspecting very long, but i know in my bones this is for the best for us both. so with time, i will be happy
and not to worry, i have a fantastic support system. i have incredible friends who are there for me. i am lucky to have a family who is not guilting me about leaving a long term relationship, despite also being sad. and iâve learned i have a great community on here who has showed so much kindness, and i am so grateful <3
that being said â i am not planning on taking a break from tumblr lol. if anything, i am starting to get out of my writers block. this past week i have written more than i have the last month so thatâs good! i think i might try and be a little more productive than i have been the past few weeks (at least i hope so, work is picking up again hehe)
not putting this out here for sympathy or anything, but just a little update. i am interested in the lives of those i follow, so maybe some of you are interested in mine
wishing everyone a nice weekend đ«¶đ» i got work in the morning (day after the breakup thatâs fun)
