Ok so doing this again (laying bare the piece of media that drives me insane so i can pick the tropes that made me like and and put it in my wips)
Fav tropes with Nico specifically
It just doesn't end. Like. He is an emotional beatinf bag. It gets to the point where the godess of misery and suffering says "hmm theres nothing to do with ya, ur good 👍" and then he is thrown into Hell (again)
There's still softness. He is endlessly tortured by nightmares but he is in a place where people love him and they want him to feel good and he wants himself to feel good too so it's just. Comfy
Dark humor perhaps a little too dark (other people don't seem to find it funny but meh)
Bursts into sobs and reaches out for comfort and then tries to compose himself and he just completely ignores the fact he was very vulnerable a few seconds ago
Misery mindspace ('gosh being surrounded by the Horrors suck i just want a good time but what a shame im a terrible person and can't have it because everything is my fault) but trying to break out of it ('oh no wait. this is the mental illness speaking. ok. calm down. not a terrible person. ok lets try to believe that one. i owe it to myself')
Gay
Gay—but it's so endearing the way he is not exactly unapologetically gay he's just had to hide away that part of himself for so long and then it was dragged out of him for everyone to hear when he didn't want to and then he tries to claw it back to keep it a secret (god, this is so embarassing no one should know that no one can know that. please) but the damage's already done and after a while of downs and ups you finally get to be you and you have a boyfriend now (element that affirms your Self + makes you happy) and you get to shout it to the world because you are partners and nobody can take that—if they try, then you can throw the closet you were in right up their asses
He is dying inside (hyperbole). But he wants to be tender so he can give softness to the person he cares about

HAIKYUU CHARACTERS THINKING YOU'RE BREAKING UP WITH THEM
(part 3 w/ Kita and Suna)
Part 1 | Part 2
Tumblr media Tumblr media
⚠️ Warning⚠️: Angst
Tumblr media
Holy shit. Did I just left a request for almost a month and a half. GOMEENNNN IM SO SORRY TO THE PERSON WHO REQUESTED IT. I forgot about it since I deleted Tumblr because y'know ✨storage✨ and because school is almost ending here and that means more school work. Im so so so so sorry, i hope finally posting the request can make it up to u. . .😔
Tumblr media
Kita
He swung open the door, frowning. He isn't tired.
No.
He is exhausted.
The momment he went in your shared apartment, he was met by your crushing hug. Kita sighed, and slightly pushed you off.
"Hi. . ." You breathed out. "How was your day?"
Kita wanted to sarcastically say that it was the best, but he doesn't but to ruin your mood just because he had a very bad day.
"It's fine. . ." He simply said.
You laughed.
"How about let's go watch a movie?" You smiled, as you followed him into the bedroom. "I found a  good one, it's called Ocean's 8!"
You watched as Kita slipped into his pajamas, not really noticing a deep frown on his face.
"It's about a heist, I know you like those," you carefully set the CD on to the player and turned on the TV, smiling when the movie started playing.
You strutted back to the bed and your eyes landed on Kita, who was already laying down on his side of the bed, back turned to you.
"Hey!" You nudged him playfully. "C'mon let's wat—"
"Cut it off!" Kita frowned.
Your smile dropped immediately.
"Stop it okay? God your so fucking annoying," he sighed. "You know sometimes I wish I didn't asked you out. I'll waiting for you to break up with me, I have no problem with that,"
Your eyes teared up. A heavy feeling settled at the bottom of your stomach. The way he didn't stutter and the way he sounds genuine only made it painful.
But he didn't really mean it.
Right?
"I'm sorry," you got off the bed and took out the CD from the player, trying to hide you shaky voice. "I won't bother you anymore,"
He really wished he didn't say that.
But it was too late.
He woke up to you packing your things. Surprised and confused, he slowly got up, waking to you.
"Love, what are you doing?" You froze for a second before continuing to pack your things faster. "Love?"
You went out the bedroom, leaving Kita confused. Memories came flooding back in his head. Slowly but painfully, panic settled him.
You came back in the bedroom to pack up your other things.
"Love," Kita took the bag out of your hands, eyeing the half-empty closet of yours nervously. "Stop,"
"Kita!" You tried to grab the bag back but in your disappointment, he raised it up, out of your reach.
"You used to call me 'Love'," he smiled sadly, his eyes starting to water. "What happened to that?"
You stopped your attempt to get the bag back and stared at him, your own eyes starting to water. He dropped the back and his arms fell in his sides limply.
"You know I didn't mean what I said yesterday right?" He tried so hard to not to cry and tried so hard to keep his composture.
"So tell me. . ."
He let his tears fall.
"Why are you leaving me?" He sobbed out. "Y-you— We promised we won't let each other go!" he screamed, tears falling down continuously, not stopping. "What happened to that?!"
You sobbed and looked at the side, not having the courage to look at him at the eye.
"Don't leave me!" He begged and fell on his knees, head hanging low.
You slowly kneeled down and took his head on your hands, crying because you hated seeing him like this.
"I won't," you smiled, pressing a soft kiss to his forehead. "I won't, love,"
He sobbed and hugged you, crying onto the crook of your neck.
"Don't do that ever again," he cried, body shaking furiously.
You closed you eyes, smiling as you try to stop your tears.
"I would never,"
"I love you," he sobbed.
More tears fell.
"I love you more," you whispered, hugging him tighter.
Tumblr media
Suna
Waking up from your sleep, you turned to the side, trying to feel for the familiar warmth. You opened your eyes, and saw that Suna wasn't actually there.
Again.
Squinting in the dark, you felt for your phone. Pressing the contact, your fingers flew over the letters of the keyboard.
'Where are you?' You sent.
There was no reply.
After 20 minutes of laying back on the bed, your phone lit up again, flashing a notification from your boyfriend.
'I'm coming home,' he replied, yet he didn't answer your question.
After a couple of minutes waiting, the door opened, revealing Suna who looked very tired.
"Where were you?" You asked.
He didn't answer and went in the bathroom. Sighing, you lay down on your bed, scrolling on your phone. Your mind wandered off.
Where would he even go at this late times like this?
A dreadful thought, made your stomach drop.
He isn't cheating, is he?
You shook your head, he wouldn't do that. He would never will because you trust him.
Suna came out of the bathroom, hair wet and droplets falling on the floor.
"You didn't answer my question," you pointed out, back turned to him.
Suna groaned out and lay down on his side if bed, back also turned to you. "Chill, I had a volleyball practice with the twins,"
"At this late time?" You scoffed.
"What do you want me to say?" Suna frowned and turned off the night lamp. "That I'm cheating on you?" There was a rustle as he lay down on the bed. "Y/N, please stop, okay?"
"I never pointed out that you are cheating on me," you said, anger starting to take over you. "You're the one who mentioned it,"
You stayed silent.
"You're probably giving me a hint that you actually are,"
Suna laughed, it wasn't the usual one that he lets out that when you say a cheesy joke, but it sounds like a stressed one, not a genuine laugh.
"See?" He said. "You're suspicious of me. Stop thinking that I'm cheating on you or else I'll actually will,"
"Unless I break up with you before you even can," you spat, you tried to hide your tears but let it out because you realized he won't see you in the dark.
There was a few momments if silence. Not a comfortable one nor the awkward ones but the heart breaking ones because none of you are brave enough to speak out your feelings.
"You're gonna leave me?"
You tried to stay still to pretend you were sleeping, but it didn't work because you were already shaking from holding your sobs.
"Please don't," he softly said, there was a waver in his voice, and you know, you just know he was already crying.
"I love you, you know that," he said, he turned around a hugged you from your behind, spooning you. "So I'm begging you. . ."
"Don't leave me," he whispered, sobbing afterwards. Suna wasn't the type to cry infront of others and the type to try not to cry infront of you. You turned around, kissing his forehead and wiping his tears.
"You don't need to tell me that," you smiled, tears still falling as you pressing your cheek on his chest. "I won't do that anyways,"
"I love you," he croaked out.
"Shut up, I love you more,"

Tumblr media
You let out a long sigh, dragging your feet through your shared apartment, throwing your limp, jaded body onto the couch. You didn’t bother closing the door, instead, letting it swing itself shut. Your feet were aching to be set free from their cage inside your shoes, convincing you to untie your laces and leaving them where you took them off. At this point, you were curled into yourself on your side letting all of you self-loathing swallow you whole. silent tears made their way out of the corner of your eye, leaving dark wet spots on the fabric of the couch. More began to join them, a loud, choked sob ripped itself from your lungs. You knew another slump was making its way to you.
You simply didn’t want to exist anymore. Nothing seemed to ever go your way, and you were tired of it. You were tired of waking up and hating what you saw staring back in the mirror. Tired of not being able to go a day without thinking of leaving the planet somehow. You just wanted it to stop. Boy, did you feel suffocated. you could never talk to anyone, in fear of making them feel guilty. your shit brain always managed to tell you that you didn’t deserve the love you received, and made you feel guilty for being sad. You hated all of it.
So what if you did something to rid yourself of pain altogether? The thought alone scared you when it first crossed your mind. And more times than you’d like to admit, you considered doing it for real. But the consequences never dawned on you until then. How your boyfriend, Chan, would react. He’d never be able to forgive himself if he lost you.
You cried harder, guilt ripping you apart like a starved lion. How could you ever even think to leave him like that? You’d ruin him forever.
As if on cue, the soft click of your apartment door made its way to your ears. A whine escaped your lips, praying to whatever was above the clouds that he didn’t see your current state. You grasped the arm of the couch to stand, but steady hands found their way into yours. you paused in front of him in panic. Chan’s hand rested on your cheek, turning your face to meet his. You couldn’t bare to look at him like this, in fear that you might break again.
“Look at me angel,” his voice was gentle and quiet. “Please.” You knew he just wanted to help you, but that didn’t make it any easier to look him in the eye when you were practically crumbling in his hands.
After a moment of his waiting, your puffy red eyes met his warm ones. And, of course, to your dismay, another cry leapt from your throat. You felt so guilty making him take care of you when he already has a plethora of other things to worry about. “What’s going on in that pretty head of yours, sweetheart?” His thumb was wiping your eyes as you tried your hardest to not hiccup as you spoke.
“‘M just so-so tired.” Your breath hitched in your throat as your shaky words fell from your lips, just above a whisper. “Its okay,” chan assured you, stroking your hair. “Take your time.” You took a few more breaths before trying to speak again. You sat there ranting for him for god knows how long, and he stayed with you the whole time. A sigh left your lungs once again, hugging the man in front of you.
Chan’s arms made their way around your form, cradling your body and bringing you to your shared bedroom. He gently placed you on your bed, turning away for a moment to grab one of his t-shirts and placing it next to you. He stood in front of your small frame on the bed, helping you undress yourself. You slipped off your shoes hours ago, leaving your top and bottoms to be removed and replaced. Chan grabbed the hem of your shirt, lifting it gently as your arms made their way above your head. He tossed the stray article of clothing into your closet, focusing back on you. He smiled at your skin reacting to the cold air, leaving a chaste kiss on your collarbone before handing you his shirt, as he unbuttoned your bottoms. he lifted your hips off of the bed slightly, sliding the clothing down your legs, leaving you in your underwear and his shirt. You laid down, curling up to create some sort of warmth within yourself. As if on cue, chan laid behind you in the now dark bedroom, bringing the covers over you both.
“You know you can tell me anything, right? I hate seeing you suffer in silence. I want to help you, baby.” He whispered, kissing the bottom of your hairline. You could feel his featherlight fingertips drawing patterns into the fabric of your shirt. A calm silence fell between you, your restless body flipping over to speak to him. “Thank you. For everything you do for me. I’m working on it, I promise,” you spoke lowly into the dark room, before pressing your lips to his, capturing them in a passionate kiss. “I love you.” you whispered after the kiss, letting him lay on your chest. soon you heard chan emitting soft snores, and you too, joined him in dreamland.

in the morning ; k.th
Tumblr media
summary : taehyun tries to keep you safe from the world’s wandering eyes.
pairing : yandere!taehyun x “captive” s/o!reader
warnings & other : angst (?), blood, there’s a dead person, yes the body is described (not in too much detail), enclosed spaces, dehumanization (?), honestly ignore the title i didnt know what to call this
w/c : 1.7k
Tumblr media
your bedroom door creaks open allowing a sliver of light to shine onto your bed and down on to your face. you scrunch your face in frustration but merely turn over to face the wall to continue your peaceful slumber.
a finger pokes at your face annoyingly and you swat at it to leave you alone. "my love, wake up," you hear someone whisper.
you groan but make no indications that you'll be listening to the annoying voice in your head. you feel something cold drift across your face and down your neck which makes you shiver. when you bring your hand up to your neck to pull it away, you flinch and sit up quickly.
"ow!" you inspect your hand which now has a large bleeding gash from gripping whatever was on your neck. now that you're semi fully awake, you look up to see taehyun. great, he's back from doing whatever it is he does at this godforsaken time. you wonder if it's a normal day when he's home but no- you know there's a reason why he's in your room right now.
"i wouldn't have gripped that like that if i were you," he snickers playfully. you look down at what he's holding and frown at him. "what...did you put a knife to my neck?" crazy bastard, you knew something would go wrong whenever he was within 10 centimeters of you.
"had to wake up the sleeping beauty somehow," he grins. his face immediately goes stony and he grabs your hand, looking at the aftermath of his actions. it scares you how quickly he could change his expression. sometimes you weren't sure how to act around him because you weren't sure how he would react.
"im sorry though, i'll clean it up right away." he quickly gets up and grabs some alcohol and tissues that are laying around, and rushes back to you.
"so no light today?" you ask quietly while he cleans the wound skillfully. he stays quiet for a moment and you're about to ask him the question again in case he didn't hear you but he soon speaks up.
"n-no not today.. i don't wanna be seen like this. it could scare you," he laughs dryly. he scrubs your hands with more haste now, afraid that you'll take initiative to turn on the lights.
you sigh. how considerate of him however it's not like you haven't seen him with blood splattered across his glass skin before. it wasn't out of the ordinary to see him like this after all. your room only has a tiny window above the bed and you couldn't even look out from it since it was too high. the only light that was available to you was the moonlight. unfortunely it didn't even reach far enough to shine down on taehyun to give you the luck of seeing him.
"when are you going to stop this?" you ask mostly to yourself. "i'll stop when it gets through people's heads that you're mine."
he grips your injured hand as the anger of what he had to witness today comes rushing back to his memories. "t-tae my hand," you wince.
he loosens his grip just a little bit, enough for you to not feel that much pain but obviously, it still hurts. god, you really wish he wasn't here right now.
"why...why did he- it's his fault you know. it's not like i wanted to kill him," he says. you can hear the anxiety in his voice and it makes you want to comfort him a little bit. only a small part of your brain feels bad for his current mental state but that's only because of how kind taehyun was to you way before well- this. somewhere in you, you hope that he will change but you know he's too far gone at this point.
"he had it coming though," taehyun smiles, looking down at your wound. "he should've known not to mess with other people's property." you clench your jaw at his words. it's unfortunate how taehyun doesn't see you as a human anymore, only an object for him to keep enclosed in a glass case, like some china doll.
"you're not entirely innocent y/n," he grits. he grips your hand purposely and you let a tear roll down your face now. "taehyun you're hurting me," you manage to choke out. he pouts mockingly at your plea.
"you hurt me and you hurt that guy i had to kill," he says in a matter of fact tone. "when he said hi you should've just kept your mouth shut but no you just had to make conversation and let him hug you like some-"
he cuts himself off before he can say something that he might have to force himself to apologize for later. you both sit in silence minus your ragged breaths mixed with his heavy ones.
"you killed him," he says simply. "what?" you breathe out. "you killed him y/n! if you had just focused on me like i focus on you then i wouldn't have been forced to kill him like i did."
"taehyun i-"
"go say sorry," he sighs. you look at him bewildered but it only takes you a moment to realize what he means. "taehyun," you sob. you don't want to say that you can't believe he brought a dead body home but the sad fact is that you can believe it. he mustve had no where to hide it once he was done. taehyun is not one to make empty threats. he chuckles, shaking his head, "go say sorry to your friend."
he tries to pull you from the bed but you cling onto the bedsheets, adamant about not moving. "what so now you don't want to give him the time of day? earlier you seemed just so over the damn moon speaking with him!" he shouts.
you shake your head frantically. you want to speak, to reason with him, but nothing comes out your mouth other than choked sobs. "don't be like that, it's for your own good. now let's go," he says.
this time he uses all his force to rip you from your hold on the bed. "my love...im gonna teach you something about respect," taehyun speaks lowly. his monotone voice sends chills throughout your frigid body. you kick and scream and punch his back, hoping that you can shake him enough to let you go but nothing you do phases him.
he walks through the house with you slung over his shoulder for about a minute before stopping in front of the jacket closet. he sets you down as gently as he can in front of it and you stare blankly at it, not ready to face whatever is inside.
"it goes both ways," he finishes. you hesitantly look up at him, finally seeing his face for the first time since earlier today. you flinch when you notice just how much blood is scattered over his face. the kill must've been brutal enough to send that many splatters of blood flying.
"don't look at me, look at him. don't be disrespectful," he says. when you turn back towards the closet you flinch harshly at the sight. the guy whom you spoke to earlier was now slumped over in your closet. you remember how lively he was when speaking to you but now his skin was completely drained of life and pale in color. his lips were dry, probably from trying to heave in air to try to live. you're afraid to further gaze at the body because the further down you go the worse it gets. so much so that it's practically dosed in blood.
"say it, say you're sorry!" he commands. you know that you're not really saying sorry to the dead man in your closet. taehyun wants you to say sorry to him. you know he couldn't care less about this man. he wants you to regret putting him in the position to kill another human being.
"i-im- im-" taehyun sucks teeth impatiently. "if you don't say it naturally i will lock you in here all night. i don't want to do that so you better do it right."
a noise leaves your throat when he shoves you closer to the body. you whine, trying your best to control your voice and tears. "i-" your voice gets weak but you use every bit of force in you to say it. you don't wanna risk having to stay in that closet all night.
"im sorry," you blurt. you hear taehyun chuckle behind you, satisfied for now. "was that so hard?"
"y/n you're mine and only mine. i feel so livid when others so much as look in your direction, do you understand?" he says calmly. you nod, already wanting to be back in your bed, under the covers, away from all of this.
you hear taehyun hum and suddenly you're shoved into the closet. it catches you so off guard that your body slams into the dead one. you yell in panic and scramble as far away from it as possible. "taehyun! w-what's going on?!" you call out.
the closet is so dark when it's closed that you can't even see anything. atleast you know you're not near the body. "y/n- i-i'm doing this because i love you ok?" he says uncertainly. "this way no one can look at you or talk to you and try to seduce you."
you bang on the door, your heart beating with each slam. "p-please let me out," you plead weakly. you already know that once taehyun has done something he doesn't change his mind so it's no use trying to reason. "i-im scared- please."
he stays silent for a moment and you're about to burst into tears again thinking that he's already left but he speaks up after a couple beats of contemplative silence.
"don't be scared ok y/n. you'll be fine. i'm going to come back for you in the morning." he goes silent again and all you can hear is your heavy breathing and wet sniffles. "please don't be too mad at me, i love you," you hear him whisper before you hear his footsteps retreat.
the night is spent without much sleep and your fist pounding at the closet door, hoping for an early release but it never comes.

Tumblr media
YOU lay on the floor of your closet once again, the scratchy carpet being the only thing that provided you with warmth. the only person you'd seen for the past few days was erwin. anytime he'd even mention levi, you'd beg for him not to see you.
you groan quietly, deciding to go lay in your bed for a while so your skin won't keep itching. your foot chills when it touches the hardwood floor of your room, and it distracts you from the task at hand.
you're dizzy now, only being able to focus on your foot. it didn't help much since you collapsed onto your side, breathing heavily through your nose as you stare blankly to the wall. you haven't stood up for hours, opting to leave the closet only to go to the restroom.
you blink while getting back onto your feet, hand pressed against your head as if you were soothing it. you decide to go to the bathroom, if you go now that means you won't have to go later.
you watch your hands afterwards, tired eyes watching your reflection in the crystal clear mirror.
your face was bruised, you have a black eye and a deep cut on your cheek from levi's wedding band.
you look back down to your hands, wanting to focus on something else in order to soothe yourself. you don't bother to dry your hands off with a towel, opting to shaking them around in the air.
your feet drag against the floor as you jump into your bed, body smoothly sliding across it so your head rests against a pillow. you curl up under the covers, genuine warmth crashing against your body for the first time in days. it's almost overwhelming, but you can't find it in yourself to care.
you watch a movie to help pass the first hour and a half of you being outside of the closet. you play another movie for background noise, getting off of your bed and walking to the bookshelf.
you grab a black book with white font, grabbing a smaller blanket and throwing it over your lap once you sit in a chair.
you’re going to read some of this book and then retreat back to your safe space whenever they come to feed you.
even though you’re reading the story, you can barely comprehend the words along with the plot line. everything seems to be a jumbled mess inside of your mind, so much that it makes your head hurt right behind your eyes. time stretches longer than you meant for it to as you keep rereading all the sentences, hoping to gain at least a tiny bit of understanding.
you’re attention is taken away by the sound of the door opening and closing. you’d been so focused you hadn’t even noticed that someone was coming to see you. and not only was it someone, it was levi.
the book falls out of your hands and onto the floor, eyes wide as you stare at levi with fear.
he’s holding your tray of food for lunch, which you don’t think you’ll be eating today since it’s not erwin who’s going to feed you.
levi tries not to get irritated at the way your body is trembling. he hasn’t even said a single word and you’re already cowering.
when levi steps closer, you jump out of the chair and into the corner furthest from him. you cry out for erwin, for help, anyone that will be able to take levi away from you.
it startles levi for a moment, but it’s soon replaced with frustration as he makes another step.
you scream while tears gush out of your eyes, nailing planting onto the wall you’re up against. levi angrily puts the tray of food down onto your windowsill, metal and glass clinking against one another in unsynchronized harmony.
for whatever reason, it has you screeching with you dropping to the floor and cover your head with your arms. levi’s worried and goes to make a move towards you, but you’re too frightened to think.
your screeching has his head pounding, so much that he’s silently praying that erwin would just come in already.
“i’m—i’m trying to fucking help!” he barks at you, stomping his foot onto the hardwood flooring.
you jump once more, protecting yourself more than before.
levi goes to scream again, but he’s interrupted by the door to your room slamming open.
erwin’s there, half dressed and messy hair while his eyes frantically scan the area. his eyes widen at the sight of your cowering, quickly rushing over to you to sit in front of you.
“what happened,” he asks levi while cautiously pressing a hand to your knee.
“i just walked in and she just went batshit,” levi says with exasperation, confusion and anger flashing on his face.
“get out. you scare her,” he orders with furrowed brows, stroking the skin of your kneecap with his thumb.
levi scoffs but listens anyways, shutting the door behind him.
“my love, everything’s okay. it’s just us now,” he murmurs sweetly, managing to coax you out of your panicked state just a bit.
“us? j... just us,” your voice is shaky as your hand absentmindedly reaches out for erwin.
“yes, just us,” he confirms with a smile, managing to gather you in his large arms.
you continue to cry, only this time you can breathe.
“can’t be with ‘im... i’m scared,” you admit while attaching yourself to erwin, “so scared.”
shushing you, he coos, “you can, i believe in you.”
wrong choice.
“no! no! NO,” you start to trash in his arms, once again entering the almost inconsolable mind state.
since he wasn’t expecting your panicked reactions, you manage to kick him in the chest and push him away. his body bangs against the stool of your vanity, knocking it onto his side with a loud crash.
levi runs back inside, watching how you jump to your feet and over to your vanity. erwin manages to scoot further away from you, slightly unsure of your next move.
you’re sobbing uncontrollably as you slam your fast into your vanity’s mirror. it’s so clean, not a smudge on it. not even a speck of lint. it’s perfect.
the shards cut your hand, but you don’t care, too high on adrenaline. levi and erwin go to disarm you just as you manage to grasp a particularly large and sharp shard of glass.
the moment it’s in your hand, you raise your opposite wrist to the glass while screaming at the two men.
“NOT ANOTHER STEP,” you cry as you push the glass against your skin, freezing both levi and erwin, “not another fucking step or i kill myself with this shard right fucking here.”
“(name), my love, it’s alright! it’s okay! no one’s going to hurt you,” erwin barely moves an inch while he pleads, but you don’t care.
“I SAID NOT ANOTHER STEP!!” you roar while slicing the glass against your skin, blood immediately pouring from the new wound.
dark red paints the glass as your finger swipes against the blood by accident.
“get out,” you whimper, “just leave me alone to die, please.”
“we can’t do that,” levi says calmly, accidentally taking a step out of instinct.
it feels comparable to flour whenever the blade slices through your pretty skin. it burns and you know that you might end up having to get stitches from just how deep it is if you want to live. and considering you can only really get stitches from hospitals, you say your goodbyes in your head.
“if you can’t do that,” your vision is starting to grow hazy as your breath comes out ragged, “then, i’ll just kill myself right here, knife at the vein.”
this is the only way you’ll be free again. the only way you’ll be away from them. the only way you’ll probably ever get to see your friends again.
your hope has dwindled into nothing. you know you cannot get away, not in a million years. now, there’s only one way to escape. death.
and by god if you let one of them slaughter you.
and so, you slash your arm once more right against the vein. blood oozes from the wound with ease while your eyes roll back and your knees hit the floor. the last thing you see is erwin and levi running towards you with panicked looks on their faces. it almost makes you laugh.
you hope to see them in hell.

you can read ONE LAST TIME PART ONE here!
Warnings: lack of communication lol, angst, smut, happy ending
~~~~~~~~~~
They hadn’t woken up with Harry still in bed in a long time, Y/N had missed it. A lot.
His head lay on the pillow, face smushed into it. His eyes were closed and he was snoring softly. Y/N couldn’t help but smile, she loved him.
But if they were gonna be distant with each other, what was the point of marriage? It was a heartbreaking thought that their love wasn’t strong enough to withstand not even two years before it was over.
She carefully lifted her hand, tracing her fingertips over his forehead, down the side of his face, and lightly running her fingers over his pouty lips. He twitched a little and it made her heart jump. She didn’t want him to wake up yet, didn’t want him to realize what was happening and then leave. No, she wanted him here, right here. For as long as she could have him. Because right now, he was still her husband. He was still the husband that loved her and wanted to spend time with her. Not the husband who didn’t really act like one anymore, the one always avoiding her at all costs. And it hurt, it hurt like a bitch to think that the man who she loved with her entire mind body and soul might not even love her anymore.
She admired him, she didn’t know for how long. All she knew was that the sky was dark when she woke, to it now shining bright in the sky, the birds outside chirping noisily into the air.
It started with his eye twitching, his breathing changed, his eyes peeked open, then closing again once the light hit them. He groaned out, raising his arm to cover his eyes.
Y/N couldn’t stop watching him, she should feel like a creep but this was her husband. For now, at least. The thought made her frown.
He recovered, uncovering his eyes and peering at her. She watched as his eyes widened a bit at the sight of her, and her heart broke a little.
“Shit, what time is it?” Y/N gulped and looked at her bedside table to where the alarm clock is, reading 9:53 am and reciting it back to him.
“Fuck, I was s’posed to be at the studio at 9. Jeff’s gonna kill me.” Y/N stayed silent as he quickly got off the bed, running to their shared closet and changing quickly, then running to their bathroom and closing it.
Y/N didn’t even notice the tear slipping down her face until it landed on her lips. She quickly wiped it and decided to get up as well, making their bed where they had made love for the last time last night.
She had to call up a divorce lawyer, schedule a meeting. File for a divorce, draft up the divorce papers. Gather herself and her emotions. Text her best friend for emotional support. This was all a new experience for her, and she was scared as hell. The last thing she wanted to do was end their marriage, but if he wasn’t happy, then she wasn’t happy either.
The bathroom door opened and he was looking around the room for something.
“Y/N have you seen my keys?”
“Have you checked the pants you were wearing yesterday?” She remembered unbuttoning those pants, pulling them down and having her way with him. This was getting too much for her.
“Ah, thanks, love.” Y/N sighed, placing the throw pillows in the right places and checking her phone for messages.
“I’ll be at the studio late tonight. Don’t wait up.” And then he was off, like yesterday never happened. And when she heard the front door slam shut she let the tears loose. She sobbed and sobbed into the throw pillow she just placed down, crying hard at the thought of losing him.
Still crying, she called her best friend to come over. Her best friend was shocked and scared that she was full on sobbing at 10 am, but she was too worried to question her. She raced to Y/N’s and Harry’s home, using her spare key to get in. Her heart broke at the mess Y/N was in. She knew about her and Harry’s distance but it never got this bad for Y/N.
“Can you find me a divorce lawyer?”
~~~
Vera Thomson was a top notch divorce attorney. Y/N’s best friend knew of her from her sister who had divorced her ex husband, and Vera made the process super easy for her.
Y/N tried to compose herself when her best friend was on the phone with Vera, but she broke again when she heard that she was free at 1 pm to discuss the details. Y/N didn’t want to meet up with her this soon, she didn’t want her marriage to end with the love of her life this soon. She kind of hoped for a delay in it, that it wouldn’t be this fucking easy.
“I-I can’t do this!” Her best friend sighed and wrapped her arms around Y/N, rubbing her hand up and down her back.
Between Y/N’s loud cries and the shushes from her best friend, they both didn’t hear the front door opening and closing. They also didn’t hear the footsteps climbing up the stairs and stopping outside their bedroom door.
“P-please, this can’t just be it!”
“Shh, Y/N, it’s alright. It will be okay. I’m here for you, we’re all here for you.”
Outside their open bedroom door, Harry stood in utter confusion at hearing Y/N’s cries. He wanted to go in but somewhere in his mind he knew he was a reason for her tears. It broke Harry apart each heart wrenching sob she let out. He wanted to go in and comfort his love, but for some reason he couldn’t move his feet.
When Y/N composed herself to utter a few sentences, Harry’s entire world stopped. He almost fell to his knees at her words.
“Do you really think divorce is the best option? S-should I at least wait a few more days until meeting with her? Or, or should I just get it over with today? How long does divorce papers take to draft? I’m so scared, I don’t wanna do it.”
She wanted a divorce? She was meeting with a divorce lawyer to draft the papers? He didn’t want what he was hearing to be true, they were okay.. Weren’t they? Yeah, he’s been super busy writing his next album, but she had to know she was the most important thing to him, right? He loved her with all of his heart, he never wanted her to feel like this, to the point of heartbreak and tears. He vowed to always make her feel special, and to always be there for her and to always spend time with her. Was he really the one making her feel like this?
Sure, he’d been coming home later than usual, spending long hours everywhere he got an ounce of inspiration for a new song. He’d be at the studio perfecting one song, then starting the next. But he didn’t know she felt this way. Was she that unhappy?
Holy fuck- he suddenly remembered her words from yesterday. “One last time, H. Please.”
“She’s a popular attorney, Y/N. I don’t know when the next meeting will be, you’re lucky she had room for you today.”
Y/N scoffed. She was lucky? She didn’t think she was lucky that she was getting divorced to her husband.
“Sorry, bad choice of words. Look, if you’re having second thoughts, I can cancel for you. Take all the time you need, you don’t have to rush, Y/N. This is a big decision, and maybe you should talk to him first? Maybe this doesn’t have to be an option? Maybe marriage counseling..?”
“No..” Y/N shook her head in disagreement.
“Marriages shouldn’t need counseling. If we were meant to last together, we don’t need counseling to dig into why we are unhappy in this marriage. Besides, this is for him. He’s the one unhappy, and if he’s unhappy, I am.”
Harry couldn’t take it anymore. He entered the room, both Y/N and her best friends heads looking up and eyes wide and frozen at the sight of him.
“What are you talking about, Y/N? You think I’m unhappy in this marriage?”
“Harry-“ Y/N started cautiously, not knowing how much he heard but he would of had to hear her last sentences if he was reacting like this.
“No, Y/N! I love you so fucking much, and to think I was ever unhappy in this relationship is utter bullshit.”
He was so worked up, so emotional, he was pacing the room trying to form words to explain his thoughts. His thoughts that were running wild, he was scared. He was scared that he would lose her, lose his precious Y/N. His darling who meant the whole universe and more to him.
He was mad also. Mad that she ever thought he was unhappy. Mad at himself for making her think he was unhappy. Mad at the both of them for not communicating their feelings properly. Mad that she would’ve given up this easily.
“H.. please. We both know you’re unhappy in this marriage. Is this not what you want?” Y/N saw the tears running down his face and she blanched, feeling awful for making him cry. She honestly thought she was doing the right thing, but maybe it was the fear. The fear that he no longer wanted her, that he had the ability to find prettier women. She was insecure, but fuck how can she not be? Her conflicting emotions must’ve shown in her face before her best friend rubbed her back and told her she was going to go.
Y/N nodded absentmindedly while staring at Harry. She made the decision to carefully approach him, what she wasn’t expecting was for him to fall to his knees before her.
“Don’t leave me, baby, please don’t leave me.” He cried out, Y/N’s heart wrenching in pain at the sight.
“I’m not, H. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.” She fell to her knees with him, hugging his body close to her, so tight but she didn’t care. She sighed in relief.
He pulled back. “I- I remember you saying ‘one last time’ last night.. I thought nothing of it, but you were planning to leave me last night?” Y/N felt she was on an emotional roller coaster. She realized how wrong she had been in not communicating with him before taking a big step, calling a divorce lawyer. She should have talked to him about her feelings. Communication is key. They both knew that, so why had they both been quiet?
“I never want you to leave me, baby, never. You’re my heart, my soul, my everything. W-were supposed to start a family, grow old together, baby, tell me why you wanted to divorce me? Please?” They were both full on sobbing at this point. Y/N paused for a few seconds to think of her words.
“I never want to leave you, never want you to go either. We’ll be okay, H, okay?” Y/N cradled his face with her hands and traced his cheekbone, pressing warm kisses all around his face, and wiped away his tears.
“I’m sorry for assuming, I was just scared it was true, that you didn’t want me anymore.” She whispered. Harry’s face showed love and compassion as he kissed her lips, shoving into it warmth and passion and love and care.
“I need you, baby.” Harry murmurs against her lips, the kiss soon turning passionate and taking them to another level.
“Mmm, then have me.” Sexual intimacy was a big part of one’s relationship, and thank God their’s was out of this world. He worshipped her body and in return she worshipped his, they knew each other’s likes and dislikes and was not afraid to push one’s boundaries a little bit further. They were comfortable with each other, but in a good way that there were still more things to learn.
Her words ignited a spark in him—show her she’s the only one for you, show her you’ll never leave her— and that’s what he intended to do. Harry slowly brought them up, gripping her waist and pulled her up, bringing her body to the bed and depositing her there.
Eyes alight with excitement and lust, he prowled toward her.
“I can’t take it slow baby.” Harry heard her words but didn’t pay them no mind. He wanted to bring her to new heights that she hadn’t felt before with him.
Y/N tried to undress him but he pushed his hoodie back down and pinned her wrists to the bed. “Lay back and relax, baby, this is all about you.” Y/N gulped at the fire in his eyes and nodded, laying back and letting him take over.
He traced her body with his hands, not letting a single surface go untouched, he pulled her sleep shirt off, marveling at the sight of her perky breasts and hard nipples. She gasped when he blew hot air onto her left one, not touching it. He did the same to her right.
“No teasing me, H.” He again didn’t reply but finally wrapped his lips around her nipple, she moaned and gripped his hair, bringing him closer to her. He switched to the other and swirled his tongue over it, sucking and playfully biting.
He pressed a trail of kisses down her body, stopping at the waistband of her pajama pants.
“Even in just nighties, you look divine.” Y/N blushed at his compliment and bashfully looked away.
The tug on her waistband prompted her to lift up her hips, Harry pulling them down and then she was just in her underwear.
He blew out a breath and bit his lip.
“God, I fucking love you.” She mumbled the words back and he looked up into her eyes and smiled. “I’m sorry for making you feel like you were second choice. You’ll always come first, always. Please talk to me if you ever have doubts.” She nodded sniffling as she felt tears well up in her eyes again.
“Promise.” Y/N whispered, and he grinned, wiping a tear away and then started kissing around her thighs, sucking on the skin.
After what seemed like forever, he pulled her underwear off, immediately licking up a stripe up her vagina.
“Oh!” She sat up, gripping his head as he swirled his tongue over her clit and devoured her like no tomorrow.
“Ah! Ah, shit, Harry!” She yelled out, lost in the invigorating pleasure he brought upon her body.
He got up, withdrawing from her body. She started to protest but he laid down beside her on their big bed.
“Sit on my face.” Wasting no time, she came over on top of him and slowly sat, feeling his tongue enter her in and out and all around. He sucked and nipped and kissed, she saw stars.
He knew her body so well, but no matter how many times she’s come on his face, he made her feel so special.
“So fucking wet, come all over my face baby.” He said into his pussy, and she gripped the bed sheets as she came, riding out her high and smashing his face in between her legs.
She gasped, nothing really coming out except a squeak. Her ears felt numb and as she was coming down from her high, she looked down.
The bed sheets were wet around his face and she sat up a bit, seeing how his face was dripping with liquid.
She gasped again in disbelief. “No!” Harry laughed brightly, excited about what just happened.
“Yes!” She had squirted all over him but she didn’t feel the least bit embarrassed.
“You did so good for me, lovie.”
“Can I undress you now?”
“You can do whatever you want, I’m yours to do as you please.” She loved to hear those words coming out of his mouth. She quickly tugged off his work Columbia hoodie, tugging up his shirt in the process, then taking off his white pants and socks, leaving him in his boxers.
His length was fully hard underneath the fabric, so large and she wanted him so bad. Last night felt like forever ago even though it was only hours ago.
“I love your dick, baby.” Y/N said, bringing his hand into his underwear and wrapping a warm fist around his hardness.
He jolted at the contact and moaned at the squeeze of her palm.
She tugged off his boxers to his knees, not having the patience to give him a handie or blowie, she needed him in her now.
She positioned herself above him and made eye contact with him while slowly sinking down onto him. They both moaned at the feeling. It was different than last night. It had a different vibe, it was off, but right now they were better, and it felt so good.
She bounced on him, watching his face until her eyes squeezed shut in pleasure. He brought her down to hold her as he took control for a minute and fucked up into her. She took it, a loud moaning mess above her husband.
“Fuck, you feel so damn good, mmm...” He gave her ass a firm slap, rubbing it after to soothe. She squeezed around him at the feeling, and it prompted Harry’s release.
“Shit— baby, I’m coming.” She flipped them around, knowing he likes it best when he is fucking into her and taking control when he comes. He pistons his hips a few times and then brings his thumb to his mouth quickly, wetting it with his saliva then bringing it down to her mound, rubbing it in circles. That brought her up and over the edge and she screamed and they moaned and came together.
He stays within her a few minutes. Watching her relaxed face. They caught their breaths, and finally pulled out, watching the cum drip from her gorgeous pussy.
“Baby Styles?” He grins down at her, coming to lay beside her and pulled her in so close they could hear the other’s heart beat.
She shrugs in his warm grasp, enjoying the idea of starting their family.
“Maybe..”
“I love you.” He whispered, pressing a kiss into her hair. She sighed happily, in her post orgasmic bliss, but also because of the man laying beside her, her husband.
“I love you..” They laid together, enjoying themselves in each other’s presence.
It wasn’t one last time, after all.
THE END.

Bound To You

If you had the slightest choice of the family you were born into, you absolutely would not have picked the one you got. 
Growing up your father drank, alot. He yelled constantly, always slapping your mother when she politely asked him to keep quiet as he was scaring the children. 
"Fuck them kids." Was his response. Your father never told you he loved you, never told you he was proud of you for graduating top of your class in highschool despite him being such a piece of shit. As stupid as it sounded, and as much as you hated the man, you wanted the validation from him. You wanted to know if he had any kind of bond with you, even the smallest. 
But that never came. The only time he was even remotely nice was when he needed something. When they were out of money and you were working so you had to support his drinking and gambling addictions, or he'd raise his hand to you. Your brother, who was 4 years older than you also still lived at home. He did his best to protect you and your mother from your father's fists but he worked a lot. He was responsible for paying the bills since your father refused to work, and wouldn't allow your mother to work, because in his mind she would cheat on him. 
You hated it here, but even at the age of 23, you couldn't leave. Even when he hit you, you couldn't leave your mother alone with him. Your father would kill her. There was no doubt in your mind. 
You sat on the couch, the house was quiet. You could hear your mother weeping in the kitchen, your father nowhere to be found. He had freaked out on everyone, slapping your mother before taking off out the front door. 
His absence was extremely welcomed.  You turn your head focusing on the show playing on the TV, when you hear yelling outside, that seemed to be coming closer. The front door of your house swung open, your dad being shoved to the floor of the entrance. 
"Where is she?" A voice snaps. 
"Ayn! Get over here!" Your father spits from the floor. Slowly you rise from the couch, reaching for your mother who came from the kitchen."Ayn!" He yells again. 
"What?" You snap, standing above the drunk man. 
"This is her." He huffs. 
You look over to the large men accompanying your father,  who are now looking at you carefully. 
"Will he approve." A deep voice says. "Taeyang, grab her." The man says. 
"Thank you! Thank you!" Your father gravels at the man's feet.
"Your debt is cleared. Do not return." He snaps, leaving  To walk out the door. The other man grabs your arm tightly, Yanking you towards him following the other man of the door. 
"What the hell are you doing!?" You snap, trying to fight the man off.
"You didn't warn her?" Taeyang scoffs. 
"Why should I? Useless bitch." Your father laughs. 
Without hesitation, the tall man swiftly kicks your father in the stomach, resulting in the sound of ribs crunching. 
"Your father sold you to Kwon Jiyong, to pay off his gambling debts." He tells you. "You will marry Jiyong in one month." 
"Do I not get a say!? This isn't even his life! It's mine! You can't use me as your payment!" You scream. 
"I can and I did." Your father coughs. "Take her." 
The man throws you over this shoulder, knowing you wouldn't go easily. You fought as hard as you could, but it didn't work. You were stuck, your fate was unknown and you were terrified. The door shut behind you, and all you could hear were the sobs and pleas of your distraught mother fading away as you're put into a van and taken away. 
"Please don’t kill me." You sob. You just knew that was your fate, and absolutely something your father would do. The wedding they had mentioned earlier couldn't actually be true. 
"What?" Taeyang laughs. "You're not dying."
"Although, you will probably wish you were dead." One mumbles. 
"I mean you're not wrong, Daesung." Taeyang smirks.
"Enough. You know GD has microphones in here." The tall one snaps. 
"Right." They both sigh. 
"But I can't actually get married." You scoff. 
"You are. One month." Daesung says. 
"I'm only 23! I haven't even had my first love yet! I wanted to travel and do so much." You cry. 
None of the three men say anything as the van pulls into a gravel driveway, stopping in front of probably the biggest house you had ever seen. 
Taeyang pulls you from the back of the van, holding onto your tied hands behind you back, guiding you inside. 
You walk through a grand entrance, painting littering the walls, sculptures against the walls. It smells of stale cigars and whiskey as you walk deeper into the house, passing through a nosy living room before stopping in front of a pair of grand double doors. 
Daesung pushes the doors open, revealing a man standing there, his back facing you. 
"She's here boss." The tall one says. 
"Thank you, TOP." He snickers, turning around. 
You had never seen someone as beautiful as the man who stood before you. He was wearing a dark blue suit, a neck tattoo visible. His fingers held a few rings, while his face was just.. perfect. 
"She'll do." He says, smirking at you. "Take her to her room." He finishes, turning back around. 
If that was who you were marrying, maybe this wouldn't be too bad. 
Oh how you were so wrong.
That night he lay in your bed, in an unfamiliar room, your eyes staring at the ceiling as the events of that day flooded through your head. You wanted to know what exactly was going on and none of his men would tell you anything. They just tell you to wait for Jiyong, but when was that going to be? 
 Taking the initiative you get out of your bed and open the large door leading to a hallway.  Quietly you sneak down the staircase heading towards the double doors you had stood in front of earlier. Taking a deep breath, you gently place your hand on the door knob Quietly turning it until you slightly pull the door open, without a sound.  You peak your head inside, a gasp coming from your mouth without thinking about it. 
You see a sweaty Jiyong, his hands gripped on a woman's hips as he harshly pounds into her, moans slipping from her mouth. With your eyes wide you look away, closing the door before you're caught, tiptoing back to your room, feeling quite dumb. You had wanted to talk to him, but you seem to forget what type of man he was. He's a mafia boss, the most ruthless. You needed to just stay in the shadows unless asked for or spoken too. Much like living in your parents house. Not to be seen or heard. 
You fell asleep that night actually sort of missing your house, mostly just your mom. 
It was a few days before you actually saw Jiyong, mostly just hangout in your room, with meals being brought to you until he returned from wherever he was. 
** 
One morning, you're woken up to the sound of clapping. It was a struggle to open your eyes, but when you did you saw Jiyong standing there, looking good in a tight fitted suit. 
"Did you enjoy the show last night?" He asks, cocking his head to the side. 
"I.. uh.. what?" You ask, not sure if you should just fess up to what you had witnessed. 
"I know you saw. I'm asking if you enjoyed it. Yes or no, that's not a hard question to answer." He says. 
You get up, swinging your legs over the edge of your bed, your head hanging low. 
"Im sorry. I just had some questions. I didn't see much." You whisper. 
"I have nothing to hide." He smirks. "Anyways, that's not why I'm here. I'm here because of this." He pauses, pointing up and down your body. "Is not going to work." 
"Kim." He calls out. A woman walks in, her face serious as she pulls you off your bed, standing you in front of them both, before forcing off the large t-shirt you slept in that night. 
You stand there, stunned as they circle you, talking to each other about what needs work and what will do. 
"Hair cut and colour, make up. Body is fine. Do something with those nails." Jiyong says. "Have her ready for the engagement party. Tonight." He says, walking out of the room. 
"Lets go." She says, pulling your arm towards the door. 
"Um. Can I put on clothes first?" You ask, looking down at your bra and panties. 
"Oh. Sure." She says, letting go. 
You go to your closet, picking out the easiest thing to put on, a sundress, already dreading what the day had in store for you. 
** 
Five hours later, you tiredly walked into your room, looking at a person in the mirror you didn't even recognize. Your hair was completely different, you never actually envisioned yourself with that colour. Your skin was glowing after being pummeled and smoothed, the smell you radiated reminded you of a bakery your mother used to take you too. 
The glow you had was hard to miss, but you kind of liked it. You smiled at yourself, but we're almost blinded by the whiteness of your teeth, it was almost too much. Your stomach drops, you don't know who this person standing before you is. You try anything to make yourself feel like yourself, but it doesn't work. This was your life now. You had appearances to keep up, better get used to it now. 
You hear a knock at your door before it opens immediately after. "Miss." A man calls out. "You have 20 minutes until it's time to go." He says, making you remember that tonight was the night you announce your engagement to everyone Jiyong knows. 
With a forced smile on your face you slip into the strapless dark satin dress that hugged your curves, as well as showed off your legs with a long slit up the sides. You stared at yourself in the mirror, in a dress that was the most flattering thing you had ever seen yourself in. You may not know who you were, but damn you looked good. 
You slid on your heels, strapping them on before heading out the door, meeting one of Jiyong's men outside your door. 
"He's waiting at the bottom of the stairs." He tells you. 
Without a word, you take a step down, heading towards your fiance that you knew nothing about. 
You see him standing there, adjusting the cuffs of his suit before looking up, a small smile crossing his face before it goes back straight. 
"That looks much better. You look good." He says, walking away leaving you trailing behind him. 
"Thanks." You whisper, rolling your eyes. 
** 
The entire car ride to the party was spent with Jiyong telling you what not to say, so when you finally pulled up to the venue, you were more than ready to get out and talk to anyone else. But before you could go in, he handed you a beautiful and large diamond ring to slide onto your ring finger for your engagement ring. 
You walked into the grand building, everything was so elegant. Waiters circled the floor with the most expensive champagne, waitresses with finger foods, the ceiling sparkled from the chandelier and the lights, gentle music played in the corner of the room. 
It truly was beautiful. 
However, you didn't get to take a lot of time to take it all in. Within seconds there were people coming up to you and Jiyong, introducing themselves, asking to see your ring and how the wedding planning was going. It was all a lot to take in. 
"Excuse me." You smile at the people who circled you and Jiyong, whispering in his ear that you were going to go to the bathroom. 
You needed a few minutes to yourself, to calm down and ease your anxiety. This was just a lot. 
When you finished in the bathroom, you were making your way back to Jiyong when you were stopped by a man. 
"Hello there beautiful." He says, stepping in front of you. 
"Hello." You respond with a small smile. 
"My my my, just how did Mr. Kwon pull someone like you?" He asks. 
"I'm sorry?" 
"I just want to know how he managed to get someone like you? You look like you'd be a much better fit for someone like, oh I don't know, me." He smirks, reaching over to touch your arm. 
"Isn't that a shame, Jackson that she is in fact mine, and not yours." Jiyong spits, walking over to stand beside you. He effortlessly slides his arm around your waist, pulling you in close. 
"Ahh, I suppose. But she could be mine. If she so chose." Jackson winks. 
"I'll pass." You smile. "I'm happy where I am." 
"You sure, sweetheart? I could make you happier." He offers. 
"I don't think you could." You say, turning your head to give Jiyong a kiss on the cheek. 
"I believe the lady has spoken." Jiyong says, clearing his throat. He had not been expecting that from you, but he liked it. 
You give Jackson a small smile before Jiyong guides you away, placing his glass down on the bar before you and he exited the building before getting in his car. The ride was silent, you spent most of it playing with your fingers with your head down, not knowing what you should say or if you should say anything. Jiyong kept one hand locked on the steering wheel, staring straight at the road, but the one thing you noticed was that his knuckles were white as he gripped the wheel hard. Something had made him mad, but what? 
When the two of you arrived back at the house, Jiyong stormed from the car and towards the house before stopping in his tracks. 
"Don't get it twisted." He began. "I don't fucking want you, but you're still mine and I don't share." He spits before going into the house, heading to his office and slamming the door. You stood outside the door for a few minutes, debating on whether you should knock or not when you heard him yelling. 
"Don't you ever disrespect me like that again!" You hear him yell. "I'll pull all my fucking connections from your crew Jackson, don't fucking test me." He snaps before slamming down the phone. 
**
Over the next few days, you had spent your time wandering around, reading, watching shows, but also getting close to some of his men. Specifically Taeyang and Daesung. They made you laugh so often, sometimes you'd catch Jiyong staring at you as you laughed, or watching you when you walked past him. You tried not to over analyze it but your brain couldn't help it. This was the man you now had to spend your life with, you wanted him to feel something, anything. 
** 
The night before the wedding, you couldn't sleep. You were terrified to get married to a mafia leader, especially one as terrifying as Jiyong. You had heard the rumors of what he had done and what he was capable of and part of you was scared that if you did anything to make him mad, he would make you disappear. 
Tired of tossing and turning, you got out of your bed, going to look at the backyard that had been set up for your wedding. The lights, the flowers, decorations, the way the chairs were set up, everything looked beautiful. If you had been marrying a man you loved you would have felt giddy and excited for this but instead you were nervous. 
"Looks good, doesn't it?" You hear from behind you. 
Turning your head, you see Daesung standing there, with his arms crossed. 
"It's beautiful." You whisper.
"You should get some sleep. You've got a long day tomorrow." He says, nodding his head towards the door. 
"I know." You sigh, heading back in with him trailing you. 
"Try to get some sleep." He says, standing at the bottom of the stairs, right across from Jiyong's office. Before you could say anything or go upstairs, you hear a female giggle from inside his office. 
"Aren't you getting married tomorrow?" You hear the girl ask. 
"Yeah, but it's strictly for business. Bitch means nothing to me." You hear Jiyong say before the woman giggles again. 
"Ayn.." Daesung starts but you don't stick around yo hear anymore. You run up the stairs, slamming the door to your room before crawling into your bed. 
This life was going to be hell. 
** 
You fought back tears the entire day of your wedding. You held them back while your shitty father walked you down the aisle to the man who wanted nothing to do with you. 
You held them back as you were announced man and wife by the minister, and Jiyong pulled you in for a kiss while everyone cheered. 
You held them back as the DJ announced Mr. And Mrs. Kwon Jiyong, and your first dance as a married couple. 
You barely touched your food, your smile was forced during pictures, especially the ones with Jiyong. You knew you could see the sadness and hurt in your eyes but everyone chose to ignore it. 
"What's your issue?" Your father asks during the forced father and daughter dance. 
"I didn't want this." You growl through your teeth. 
"Be grateful anyone wants you, but especially a man like him? You should be worshipping me for doing this for you." He spits. 
"Im in this shitty situation because of you! Like hell I'd ever thank you." 
"Ungrateful little fucking brat." Your father sneers. 
"Im done." You say, ripping your hands from his grip before walking away, even though you still had more than half the song to go. 
"You okay?" Daesung asks, sitting beside you at your table while Jiyong mingled. 
"I guess. Shitty husband, shitty father, shitty life. It is what it is." You sigh, watching Jiyong walk over to you with a smile and his hand held out for you, wanting you to dance. 
"My wife." He smiles. You force a smile, placing your hand in his, letting him lead you to the dance floor but you knew it was just for appearances. On what should be your special wedding night, you knew he would likely end up with his dick in someone else, like usual. 
As the night came to an end, you were exhausted as you crawled into your new bed. Now that you were married you had to keep up appearances, according to Jiyong. He has moved you into his room now, incase of any surprise visits or anything. Nothing could look suspicious, or not like the two of you weren't actually married. 
As you rolled over to face the wall, you felt the bed dip beside you. Honestly, you had expected him to work in his office or do whatever, but definitely not come to bed. 
When you woke up the next morning, he was gone, not really a surprise to you. However, what was a surprise was that for the next week, he ended up in bed with you either when you went to bed or a little bit later. He never said anything to you, just crawled in and went to sleep but a part of you liked it. You enjoyed having someone to sleep next too. 
** 
A few weeks later, you said good night to Taeyang and Daesung, giving Jiyong a small smile before heading for the stairs. Your heart fluttered when you looked at him. As much as you tried to stop it, you fell for him and you hated yourself for doing so. It was a little earlier than you normally went to bed but you were bored. 
"Wait." Jiyong calls out. "Where are you going?" He asks. "Not to bed right?" 
"Um, well yeah, I was planning on going to bed." You say, avoiding eye contact. 
"We have that opening. You have to get ready." He says. 
Fuck. Taeyang had told you about it weeks ago and it had totally slipped your mind. "Right." You sigh. "I'll get ready quickly." You say, running up the stairs. 
You finished your makeup in record time, opting for a subtle but dark look to go along with your short dark dress with a slit up the side. You quickly slip on a pair of heels before descending down the staircase where you hear a small "wow" slip from Jiyongs lips. A smile quickly washes over you before it disappears, not wanting him to know you heard that. 
You walk with Jiyong to the car, where he opens the door for you, allowing you to slide in before he goes around to the drivers side, taking off quickly. 
"I have a meeting when we get there at first." He explains. "Say your name at the bar and he won't charge you, just hangout for a bit until I'm done and then I'll come get you." He says, giving you a small smile. 
You nod your head, letting him know you understand as your stomach fills with butterflies.
**
Jiyong gives you a small wave as he walks away from you, leaving you in a crowded club by yourself. You walk over to the bar, ordering a few shots before giving him your name. 
"Under Kwon Ayn." You say, slightly enjoying the look of terror on his face when he realized who your husband was. 
The man gave you your four shots of tequila, which you took all in a row, standing there for a minute while the liquor worked its magic. Just as you felt it kick in, one of your favorite songs began playing, drawing you out to the dance floor. Without any hesitation you walked to the dance floor and began moving your hips, swaying to the beat of the song. 
It didn't take long for you tk feel a pair of hands grip your hips and someone to push themselves against you. Honestly, you had thought it was Jiyong, but when you leaned your head back and you saw it was a man you had never seen before. You felt your body tense up as you tried to move away from him but his grip tightened, not letting you leave. 
"What's the rush, baby?" He whispers in your ear. Maybe it was the tequila, or maybe it was the fact that your husband didn't want you, but it felt nice to be touched, to be wanted. You wanted someone, you had needs too that weren't being met. 
You turned around, sliding your arms around his neck, whispering in his ear. "Im Ayn." 
"Suho." He beams, pulling you in closer. 
For the next few minutes, you couldn't help the giant smile that was plastered on your face as you and Suho danced, while he whispered in your ear. It felt nice to have someone be close with you and make you feel things and want you. You were tired of your one sided love, it was nice to have some sort of feeling returned. 
It was nice while it lasted. You happened to look up, the smile on your face fading as you saw Jiyong staring at you with Suho, his fists squeezed into balls at his sides while his face looked right pissed. 
You quickly try to pull away from Suho but he just laughs, and pulls you in closer. Your eyes widen as you watch Jiyong walk down the stairs, pushing his way through the crowd until he stands behind Suho. He taps him on the shoulder, and Suho turns around. When he does, Jiyong's fist immediately connects with Suho's face, knocking him to the ground. 
"Get your fucking hands off my wife." He spits, grabbing your wrist, pulling you towards the bathroom. 
Jiyong pulls you into the men's bathroom, closing the door behind you. "What the fuck was that?" He spits. 
"It was nice to be touched." You say, shrugging your shoulders. "A girl has needs too, you know." You say, that fucking tequila making you braver than you've ever been. 
"And what kind of needs do you have?" He asks, walking closer to you until you're pinned against the door. 
"I need to be touched, and wanted.. fucked." You breathe, Jiyong's face inches closer to yours. His hands reach down to touch your thighs, slipping his fingers under your dress as you spread your legs slightly for him.
“Touched like this?" He asks, gliding his fingers across your clothed pussy.
You shudder at the feeling, your knees buckling. Jiyong grabs your hand,  bringing you to the counter where he puts his hands on your hips, helping you hop onto the counter. Uoj spread your legs causing your dress to ride up. He pulls you closer to the edge before moving your dress up fully and out of his way as he groans at the sight of your already dripping pussy. 
Jiyong spreads your lips with his fingers, leaning forward to give you a few kitten licks on your clit, just light enough to tease the fuck out of you. 
You let out a small gasp. "More. Please" you beg. The second those words left your mouth, Jiyong quickly dived in, licking you all the way up with the flat of his tongue, moving it up and down. Your hands grip the edge of the counter tightly, your knuckles turning white. Jiyong's hands hold onto your thighs as he suctions his lips directly around your clit, sucking harshly, making you grind yourself on hks face. 
"I'm.. shit. I'm gonna cum." You cry, circling your hips as your orgasm washes through your body. 
“This is going to have to be quick baby" Jiyong smirks, standing up and unbuckling his belt, while you have a few seconds to recover. He slides down his pants just enough to allow his cock to spring free. Your mouth waters at the sight of it, his thick, large cock dripping pre cum already. 
“Please fuck me." You groan, spreading your legs more. Jiyong lines himself up with your entrance, ramming his cock inside of you, making you scream. He quickly pulls back out and thrusts back in, giving you no time to adjust to jis large size. 
"Yeah baby, let everyone know you're mine. Who's making you scream." He grunts as he thrusts himself in and out of you. 
Jiyong had himself angled at the perfect position to be able to have your clit rub up against him as he fucked you on the counter. Your tits had fallen out of your strapless dress, making Jiyong lean forward, taking one in his mouth, sucking on it while never slowing his pace. 
“You gonna cum again?" he breathes. His words build your orgasm, the knot getting tighter and tighter with every harsh thrust.
“Fuck." You cry out, grabbing onto your breast, squeezing as your eyes roll back into your head, the sensation of your second orgasm overwhelming. 
“Cum in my pussy." You cry out, wanting to feel him fill you up with his juice. 
Second later, Jiyong grunts as he releases himself into you, coating your walls with his cum. He pulls himself out of you, pulling his pants up before helping you off the counter. 
"Let's get you home and clean up." He murmurs, taking your hand and leading you through the club where you tried to avoid many looks from people who definitely knew what you had just done in there. 
The ride home was quiet. You had a million things you wanted to ask hkm, like what did that mean but you chose to stay silent. You didn't want to ruin the high of your very good mood, in case the conversation didn't go the way you were hoping it would. 
After you got home and took a shower, you crawled into bed next to Jiyong who was facing your way instead of out into the room. You laid down, facing him, your eye closed, not wanting to look at him. 
"Listen.." je begins. You open your eyes. 
"I get it. You don't have to say anything. That was a one time thing. It's fine." You whisper. 
"What? Why do you think it's only a one time thing?" He asks. 
"I overheard you the night before our wedding." You breathe. "Bitch means nothing to me." You quote. 
"That was then. This is now. Over the last few weeks of watching you, being near you, your energy, your smile, everything about you, I'm falling. Hard." He tells you. "Look at me." 
You open your eyes, looming into jis pleading eyes. He wants you to believe him, to see that he's telling you the truth. 
"I am too." You whisper, a smile creeping up on your face. 
That night you fell asleep embraced in Jiyong's arms, finally everything felt like it was going to be okay. But that's just life isn't it? Making you believe things are finally working out when in reality, everything is about to fall apart. 
The next morning you woke up and stretched while Jiyong's hold on you tightened. 
"Good morning." You whisper. 
"Mhmm." He answers, reaching under your shirt to cup your breast. "Yes it is." 
You stick out your ass into his crotch, his hard cock poking you. "Tease." He moans. 
"Me? I never." You gasp, wiggling from his grip. You roll him onto his back, pull the covers from jkm before you pull his boxers down and you allow his morning wood to spring free. 
You move yourself between his legs, gripping his shaft with your one hand before opening your mouth and wrapping it afound hks cocm. 
"Oh god." He moans, his hands resting behind his head. 
You bob your head up and down, sucking harshly while also moving your tongue around the tip of his cock, making him moan.
"Fuck that feels amazing." He groans as you cup his balls, gently playing with them. 
You force yourself down as far as you can, his cock sliding down your throat. "Please ride me." He moans, bucking his hips. 
You let go of his cocm with a pop, getting up and standing over him. You bunch up the bottom of your shirt, as you lower yourself down, sinking down onto his cock. 
"Oh my god." You cry as he stretches you out. Without any hesitation you begin bouncing on his cock, your hands resting on his chest. He brings his hands to your sides, moving your hips to go back and forward. 
"Shit baby." He groans, moving you faster on his cock. You slow down the pace, dragging yourself against him, rubbing your clit against him, building your orgasm faster. 
You lean yourself forward, bouncing hard on him, craving orgasm, needing to feel it spread through your body again. 
"Cum for me." He moans, his hands still on your hips, now helping you move faster. 
"I'm gonna.." you begin before your orgasm hits, making your body shudder as your eyes roll bzcl. Jiyong keeps his hands on your hips, keeling your bouncing on his cock as he chases his orgasm while you ride through your high. 
"That's it baby." He grunts, moving you faster. "Just like that.. just like.. ahhh." Hr yells out, his cum spitting inside of you. 
"Shower?" He asks, helping you slide off his cock. A small giggle escapes from your lips as you nod your head, making your way to the shower before him. 
**
A few hours later while Jiyong, Taeyang and Daesung had business to attend to, you relaxed on the couch with a good book when your cell phone rang. Looking at the contact you saw it was your mother and you knew she never called unless it was an emergency. 
"Hello?" You answer. 
"Ayn.. please.. help." She whispers into the phone sounding terrified. "Please." She begs before the line goes dead. 
Without a second thought you snuck into Jiyong's office and grabbed the first pair of keys you saw, before speaking to the garage without alerting T.O.P. You couldng risk him coming along and something happening. You got in the car and started it before opening the garage door, speeding out of there as soon as you could, leaving T.O.P behind who had pulled out his phone, no doubt to call Jiyong. 
Forty-five minutes later you made it to your old house, taking the keys from the car you quickly ran inside the house, which was far too quiet for your liking. 
"Mom?" You call out. 
You can hear her whimpering from the kitchen. You go there and see her huddled on the floor, her head in her hands. 
"Mom. Are you okay?" You ask, walking towards her. 
"Im sorry Ayn.. i'm so sorry." She whispers. 
"Sorry for what.." before you can complete your sentence you are grabbed from behind, and taken outside by two men you had never seen. You see your father standing there, a smile on his face. 
"What the hell!" You yell trying to struggle out of the grip of the men. 
"You are his now." Your father says. "He paid me a lot of money for you." He chuckles. 
"What? You already gave me to Jiyong to settle your debt." You say. 
"Yes and now he wants you and already paid a large sum, so you're his." He says. 
"Who is he!? Let me go!" You yell. 
"Hello beautiful." You hear. Looking up you see Suho standing there with his head cocked to the side and a smile on his face. 
"You." You breathe. "Please let me go." You beg. 
"Nah. I wasn't too impressed with your husband last night and now your father has so graciously sold you to me. So you're mine now." He smirks, nodding his head to the side. The men who were holding you, take you to the van, tossing you in there without a care while your father ignores your pleas for help and walks back into his house. The van drives off, leaving you crying, banging on the window begging for someone to save you, hoping Jiyong would save you.

okay so the idea is reader taking one (or many) of jj's shirts without asking him, and every time he sees her with one of his shirts on he's like 🥺🥺 and finally she says she likes his smell and wears them because of that and idk some fluff (sorry if this is bad it was just an idea i had)
white t-shirt
author’s note - this kinda deviated from the original request but it just happened because your girl is angsty. happy first time writing in a month to me!! (apologies in advance im rusty). thank you to lisa @angellissy for being my hype woman as much as im yours because this wouldn't happen without you so. couple folks who i love who asked to be tagged so: @baby-bearie @dpaccione (taglist? yes or no? someone want to teach me how?) please also know that even as my dash returns to normal and im writing this doesnt mean ive stopped or anyone else should stop advocating for black lives matter so please do all you can loves :))
synopsis - requested by @strkydrw! JJ isnt used to public affection and it creates a wedge between the two of you. which JJ isnt about to let happen.
warnings - mentions of anxiety, smidge of angst, and a swear cause i felt like it. 1.7k of comfort!boyfriend!JJ
JJ Maybank was not one for public displays of affection. He was so used to going it alone that he couldn’t fathom someone wanting to love him for the whole world to see. You were okay with it, really you were, it was just something that made the blonde who he was.
Through your time together he became more lenient. A short peck in front of the Pogues or rough fingertips brushing the skin of your waist when your shirt rose up at a kegger. He loved you and that’s all you could ask for.
But to say you weren’t needy for his affection would be a complete lie. Curling into his side at the Kook’s walk-in movie, being able to love on your perfect boy for the whole world to see, but little hand touches were enough for you if it meant JJ was yours.
You had a bad day. A crap day. Everything that could’ve gone wrong, did and now you want your boyfriend. You needed JJ’s arms to wrap you up and push all your worries away. Unfortunately, that wasn’t going to happen.
You were at a party at the Boneyard, like most summer nights on Outer Banks, and your personal security blanket was far too busy by the keg to take notice of you. Pope was sitting next to you on a piece of driftwood. The sweet boy had a knack for reading you and the Pogues like an open book. He could spot your glowering from just about anywhere.
“Pope, I’m fine.”
“Yeah and I’ll leave you alone when I believe you.”
“Pope,” he glared at you, “okay, okay.”
The two of you settled into a calm silence. Pope sipped at his plastic water bottle, which Kie had already ratted him for, and you fiddled with your fingers, relaxing at JJ’s smile in the distance. A frown slipped over your features just as quickly as your sweet smile had appeared.
“Y/N?”
Turning your head to the dark skinned boy, you appreciated his concerned smile but honestly you’d rather bask in your misery alone if you couldn’t have your blue-eyed boy.
“I’m gonna walk home,” Pope’s eyes followed your movement as you stood, “tell JJ for me?”
Now he knew something was off, though you and your boyfriend were never outwardly affectionate, Pope knew of the silent love you shared. The fact you didn’t want to tell JJ you were leaving nor grasped the opportunity to squeeze the blonde’s hand was unsettling.
He watched you slip away, staying out of the firelight so JJ had no chance of catching your departure. He waited until you disappeared over the dune and started your short walk back home before practically bounding across the beach and gripping JJ’s bicep.
“Woah Pope, quite the grip there.”
“Y/N went home.”
“What?”
“Y/N left.”
The blonde quickly scanned the sandy beach, eyebrows furrowing when he didn’t find your familiar figure. He glanced back at Pope.
“Do you know why?”
“She seemed upset.”
“What? Why didn’t sh-”
“I don’t know, but that’s not the point,” he flicked the side of JJ’s head, “the point is that your girlfriend needs you so bust a move.”
Pope barely got the last words out before the blue-eyed boy practically sprinted through the crowd.
You were a mess by the time you reached your familiar grey house with tears streaming down your cheekbones as the screen door slammed behind you. You pushed your way through the house, feeling your legs ready to give out under your weight.
You slipped out of your clothes and goosebumps rose across your skin, the summer breeze chilled against your tanned skin. Pushing your jackets and sundresses aside in your closet, you reached for the worn white t-shirt tucked behind the rest of your clothes. The stained Pelican Marina shirt was one of your prized possessions. JJ had asked you about the article of clothing before saying how he lost it and wondered if you had seen it.
You denied everything.
The t-shirt always calmed you, the smells of the salt air and JJ’s weed, it made you feel like you were curled up in his hold. With just his shirt on, you slid under your blankets and pulled the knitted fabric to your chin. You tried to ignore the wetness of your skin and the pinch in your chest that even JJ’s aroma couldn’t solve.
You were so distracted by your waves of emotions you nearly missed the soft revving of the motorbike in your driveway. Your heart clamped when you heard the soft murmurs between your boyfriend and your dad as they undoubtedly worried about your off demeanor.
“Y/N?”
Your breathing felt erratic as you quickly closed your eyes, praying you wouldn’t have to admit anything to JJ. You waited for him to leave after a soft sigh slipped through the crack beneath your door, but instead you heard the familiar creak of wood against rusted hinges.
You silently thanked your past self for laying down with your back to the wall because you knew you’d crack under JJ’s crystal gaze. Willing your lungs to settle, you felt his familiar warm touch settle over the fabric of his shirt you were wearing. The soft movement of his fingers kneading into your back nearly caused a whimper after longing for the boy’s touch for so long.
“Baby? I know you're awake.”
Mentally cursing your boyfriend, you rolled over to your side as JJ pressed his body closer to yours, practically laying on the bed now.
“Hi.”
“Hi sweet girl.”
He sweetly pressed his lips to the tip of your nose, smiling against the skin when he felt your cheek against his hand warm up. The blonde tried to pull back to admire your flushed features but you hid your face in his neck. You smiled when your actions emitted a chuckle from the boy which filled up the silence in your room.
This was what you wanted more than anything. Your perfect, loving JJ holding you close and kissing you tenderly, but not like this. You wanted to feel adored outside of the safety of closed doors and four walls, but that wouldn’t happen. You pouted at your ruined daydream.
“Hey, hey,” JJ felt your frown against his tanned skin, “baby, you have to tell me what’s going on.”
“It’s nothing.”
“Y/N…”
“Really, it’s nothing, J, can we just forget it?”
“No.”
“J-”
“Tell me.”
You stayed silent, breathing in his presence, the pinch in your chest finally releasing.
“Baby, please?”
“Are you embarrassed by me?”
“What?”
He pulled away from your touch as he frantically searched for some kind of explanation in your eyes.
“Sweet girl? Why would you ever think that?”
“You’re embarrassed to be seen with me.”
“That’s not true.”
“You have to force yourself to kiss me in front of your friends and you won’t talk to me, much less touch me in public. It’s like I’m dating different people, JJ. The boy I fell in love with and some guy who’d never give me the time of day.”
“Bab-”
“No,” you sat up, letting his once comforting arm slip off your body, “I had the worst day and everything was too much and I just needed you. I need you, JJ. But I didn’t even want to tell you because I was scared you were going to brush me off. I don’t want to have to think twice before going to you, I shouldn’t have to but I jus-”
You were cut off by a harsh sob that was building up in your throat throughout the day. The weight of everything pulling you down for too long. Your cries, however, were quickly muddled as JJ pulled you into his warm, taut chest. His pillowy lips pushed against your skin, shushing you in comfort.
“I’m so sorry, Baby, I’m not embarrassed by you. For fuck’s sake, you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I’m sorry. I’m just not used to it, I guess. You love so proudly and the fact that I have you is overwhelming. I’ve never done this before, loving someone. I wish you had told me, sweet girl, I love you so much, angel. So much and if you need me to hold you or kiss you or whatever, just tell me, okay?”
You nodded against the soft fabric of his navy shirt, your sobs giving out to breathy whimpers. It was peaceful like that, the room completely dark except for the moon and stars shining through your curtains and your boy holding you tight as you laid on his chest. You leaned back to stare at his serene facial features and watched as he fiddled with the hem of your clothing.
“Baby?”
You hummed, settling back into the crook of his neck.
“Is this my shirt?”
“Umm, maybe?”
He felt your skin heat up against his and smirked, trying to catch your eye in the dim light.
“Why’d you take it?”
“I don’t know, I just wanted you with me when I couldn’t have you.”
“Don’t be embarrassed, sweet girl, I like you in my clothes. And you can always have me, okay?”
You hummed again, drowsiness forcing your lids closed. JJ shivered as your eyelashes fluttered over the smooth skin of his neck.
“What do you think of wearing this to tomorrow’s boat day with everyone?”
He mumbled into the night, smiling at the idea of you laying out with his shirt announcing you were his, but his suggestion went unanswered because your were already fast asleep in the comfort of the blue-eyed boy’s arms.

unless you take your army back ch. 2
First chapter  -  Read on AO3!
This chapter is a lot longer than I thought it was that’s my bad
cw: blood, intense depictions of injuries, food, flashbacks
~
When Crutchie woke, it was with a heaviness in the pit of his stomach. He knew that while he was not waking up from a nightmare, he would be waking into one. Another day either working hard for nothing or locked in a tiny closet, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Something was different, though. For one thing, he wasn’t quite sure where he was. He was on something soft, which couldn’t count as any surface in the Refuge. Not only that, but he didn’t feel squished or anything. There wasn’t anyone else near him, which crossed off the idea that he’d been dragged back to the room full of boys, but there was plenty of room to stretch out, so definitely not in a closet.
Maybe he had died.
As he became more aware of his body, though, he still felt pained--so probably not dead. He used to visit a church when he’d been on the streets by himself, less for concern of his mortal soul and more for the communion wafers and occasional Sunday afternoon luncheons, but he’d listened to what had been taught there. Apparently, if he died and went to Heaven he’d be healed. He had to be going to Heaven, right? He’d been baptized as a baby, after all. He didn’t really believe in it these days, but that didn’t mean he was a bad person.
He would’ve continued wondering about the fate of his soul had he not tried to flex his fingers and found both hands immobile--not because of the pain in them, but because his fingers were all wrapped up. So was his left arm, actually, which was distantly throbbing.
Reluctantly, Crutchie forced his eyes to open, grimacing at how crusty they felt. Light flooded his vision and he closed them almost immediately, then opened them a pinch.
He had no clue where he was. All he could see was a wooden ceiling. How was that supposed to help him?
It smelled sort of familiar, but it was also silent, aside from a bird chirping outside the window--which was right beside him. Actually, as he took a bigger breath (not too big, his chest was all tight and achy), he recognized something small--and then so many things, all in the scent of the air.
This was the lodging house, and with it, the smell of the soap they all used, Race’s cigar, newspapers, coffee, sweat, and that weird cologne that Jack and Romeo sometimes spent a few pennies on. He was home.
Crutchie let out a sigh. He was exhausted. Maybe he could just go back to sleep.
“Crutchie?”
So much for that idea. Crutchie shifted his vision a little, wincing as his neck cramped. Jack was sat there beside him, charcoal pencil frozen where it was poised on a paper. He looked okay, aside from a black eye. He also looked scared, for some reason, almost guilty. What had happened? Why was Crutchie at the lodging house? Why did Jack look like he was hiding something?
Crutchie decided to not bring it up at the moment, but couldn’t stop wondering. He didn’t remember all of what had happened since he’d been awoken the other morning by the Refuge kids with a cup of water, but he had vague recollections of beatings and closets and being trapped under the floor. He could also remember seeing Katherine, but that part might have been a hallucination. More importantly, he couldn’t remember how he’d gotten here and what had made Snyder let him go. If Jack had traded someone--
“How’re ya feeling?” Jack asked, and Crutchie could hear his words dripping with fatigue. He wondered how long he’d been out, that Jack had been sitting at his side for.
Crutchie opened his mouth, lips cracking, and paused at the pain that came when he tried to make his voice work. Something was up--Synder, chokin’ you, his brain reminded him. Also no water, dummy. They does that to a voice.
As if Jack knew what he was thinking, he shot up, the paper falling and pencil rolling away. “Gotcha some water waitin’,” he said, taking a few steps out of Crutchie’s line of sight and returning with a tin cup and a bowl. “Also had one o’ the fellas grab some soup from the sistas, so you can has somethin’ ta eat.” He frowned down at the bowl. “It ain’t too warm now, but it should still taste all right.”
Crutchie had the feeling that he ought to smile in thanks, but just couldn’t. He couldn’t even fathom lifting his cheeks that much--they felt oddly large and heavy. His head was pretty cloudy, anyway. It probably wouldn’t even be able to send the instructions to his mouth. Jack held the cup to his lips and he drank--the water was a bit warm, but far better than nothing--begrudgingly, wishing he could hold it himself.
As soon as all the water was gone, Jack was digging a spoon out of his pocket, preparing to feed him. If he had the energy, Crutchie would’ve sputtered in indignation. He could feed himself, thank you very much! He hadn’t let no one feed him except his mother, and that was too long ago for him to remember (he casually shoved down the image of Harley feeding him bites of sandwich, back at the Refuge).
“I can feeds myself,” he croaked out, feeling just that small movement of his mouth stretch his cheeks farther than normal. They must’ve been pretty swollen. Some of the anxious creases around Jack's eyes smoothed out.
“I know ya can,” Jack said, relief evident in his voice. “Lemme help ya sit up, then.”
Crutchie wanted to sit up himself, but he conceded this to Jack. He had to pick his battles, especially when he was so tired.
He gasped when Jack buried his arm under his back, the lashes and memories of them barraging him with agony. Jack pulled away as if he was the one who had been whipped, watching him warily. Crutchie scrunched his eyes closed, trying to stop a tear that was threatening to slip out. He wasn’t weak. He had to show Jack that he could do this.
“Want--want me to, uh, pull ya up by the arm?” Jack offered, and Crutchie nodded jerkily. That sounded bearable; his right arm wasn’t hurt all that bad.
As soon as Jack touched him, though, fear stole Crutchie’s breath. Images of thugs gripping his wrist and dragging him along on dirty floors filled his mind, and he cowered, pulling his body as close together as he could.
Someone was speaking, and Crutchie was about to ignore it until he realized the price he might pay for not following orders. His eyes shot open, his heart racing with a frenzy that seemed to pound on his broken ribs.
“--okay? Kath said your ribs got beat pretty bad, an’ it might be hard for you ta sit up. You good, Crutch?”
That was Jack. That was Jack speaking, and he wasn’t in the Refuge, he was at the lodging house. He just sat up to eat some soup. He was safe.
No matter how many times Crutchie repeated those words to himself, he couldn’t let go of the dark halls of the Refuge, the stink of the guards’ cigars, the pain that was coming at any moment.
“I’s fine,” he gritted out, forcing himself to meet Jack’s eyes. “Jus’, yeah, little bit o’ pain.” He couldn’t think of anything else to say, so just let it hang in the air between them.
Eventually, Jack helped him form his right hand around the bowl as steady as possible, then stabilized it as he brought it to his lips and drank. It bumped against his cheeks uncomfortably. It was little more than broth, and lukewarm, but Crutchie was grateful for it all the same. The taste of it alone nearly made him sob--the flavor was just so much--but he held it in.
Jack made him drink over half of the bowl before letting him lay back down, which was a much quicker operation than sitting up had been. When he was settled back in the bed, full to bursting and a little more clear on what was happening, he finally asked one of the questions that had been on his mind since he woke.
“Jack? What happened?”
Jack shifted from foot to foot. “With what?”
Crutchie sighed, pulling down his shirt a little to see what was under it. A lot of bandages and some bruises was the answer. “The strike, I s’pose.”
“Right, the strike.” Jack sat down, crossing one leg over the other. “Uh, well, we won.”
Crutchie’s heart leaped. They won? Against Pulitzer, and Wiesel, and the Delanceys, and Snyder, and all the police officers? Once again, he felt that he should smile, but just couldn’t find the energy. “Wow,” he said instead, swallowing around the pain in his throat. They had won. “How’d you get me out?”
There wasn’t an answer from Jack for a long time, and after a moment Crutchie looked over at him. He was looking down, cap in his hands, twisting it around anxiously.
“Governor Roosevelt,” he said, not looking up. His voice was unreadable. “Kath got him ta shut down the Refuge, for good. Ain’t nobody goin’ back there.”
Wow. They really won. How had that even happened? Crutchie couldn’t wrap his head around the fact that there would be no more Snyder chasing kids on the street. There had to be someone, right? Someone else who wanted to hurt kids for the fun of it?
“Y-you awake, buddy?”
Crutchie blinked, realizing his eyes had closed. “Yeah,” he whispered. Jack was watching him again, his eyes red. “Jus’ . . . jus’ tired.” And he was. He felt like if he didn’t sleep soon, he might just fade away. Even now, he wouldn’t be surprised if he slept for a week straight. He was so tired.
“Sleep, nitwit. Ya gots the time.”
Crutchie gladly accepted the invitation.
-
“Shh! Ya don’t want ‘im wakin’ up, do ya?”
“A little bit, yeah!”
“We wants to see ‘im!”
Crutchie groaned. The voices quieted down for a second with a few hushed gasps and shushes, then started up again when he made no effort to move. This bed was almost unbearably comfortable.
“C’mon, Jack! He’s practic’ly a’ready awake.”
“Yeah, but he ain’t. He’s restin’, he don’t need you lot tirin’ him out.”
“It’s our room too.”
“Yeah! You has to let us in, who put you in charge?”
“. . . You’s all did, Romeo.”
Crutchie snorted through his nose, then opened his eyes. He still felt bone tired, but a little like he could function. He turned his head, slowly this time, to see Jack a few feet away, holding back a good dozen newsies. Once they saw him moving, their faces lit up excitedly. Elmer pointed, hopping a little bit, and Jack looked over his shoulder to meet Crutchie’s eyes.
Immediately, he dropped his defenses and rushed to Crutchie’s side. He produced a tin cup from nowhere--and a different one from earlier?--and pushed it to his lips. “Hey, Crutch. How ya feelin’?”
Crutchie sipped and rolled his eyes, coughing a little when that sent a headache pounding. “Bit better,” he managed through his swollen jaw, pulling away from the drink. “Why’s my arm not workin’?”
Jack’s face flashed guiltily. “‘S broken,” he said, brushing hair out of Crutchie’s face. “Katherine said you’ll be wrapped up in it about three weeks, maybe more.”
Crutchie frowned. How was he supposed to sell? His right arm needed to hold his crutch, so what was supposed to be waving around the papers? His thoughts were interrupted by Jack making him drink some more water.
“I gots more food here, for ya,” Jack began. “Don’t want ya goin’ hungry. And then--”
“Jack?”
Jack went silent instantly, looking so intensely at Crutchie that he started to wonder if Jack thought he was dying. Maybe he was dying. He certainly felt like it. He shook himself. “Can I see the fellas?”
Jack turned around. The newsies, still standing in the middle of the room, waved.
“Yeah, why not,” he said, pulling his hat off and running a hand through his hair. “One at a time, though,” he added when they all began to rush forward. “You’s gonna give him a heart attack, all o’ you’s at once.”, during which Crutchie propped himself up into almost a sitting position. His bad leg was almost completely deadweight, and it hurt like he’d stuck it in a bonfire. Still, he dragged it up a little bit, trying to make room for another boy to sit on the bed. Breathing sitting up made his chest burn and back smart, but he could deal with it for right now. He just wanted to see his friends.
Specs sat down first, smiling in that gentle way of his. “Hey, Crutch,” he said. “Lookin’ a bit worse than last time I seen ya, huh? Feelin’ any better?”
“Jus’ a bit, and okay, I guess,” Crutchie admitted, once again finding smiling to be too much effort. “Jack says we won, I think. How’s it feel?”
Specs sighed happily. “Feels free. Can’t wait to get ya outta bed and into the streets, see how ‘cited the boys are ‘bout sellin’.”
“Me neither,” Crutchie said. Specs nodded, then patted him awkwardly on the knee before standing up. He was almost immediately replaced by Race and Albert, Race falling onto the bed with flourish, Albert standing beside it with his thumbs in his suspenders.
“Feelin’ any better, Crutchie?” Albert asked. Crutchie waved his arm.
“Loads,” he said, trying to not make any sounds as Race jostled him. “Bet I’ll be up sellin’ papes with you’s in no time.”
Albert guffawed; Race smiled a little piteously. “Glad to see that Crutchie spirit,” Race said, poking him in the side. Crutchie couldn’t help a gasp, bit his tongue too late to hide it. The smile completely dropped from both of their faces.
“Hey, uh,” Albert said, quieter than usual, “Race an’ I--we’s been there. Well, not there ‘xactly, but . . . that place. So we knows it’s hard to get better, an’ it takes time.”
They really didn’t know, Crutchie thought to himself as they stepped away. They didn’t have a public connection to Jack Kelly when they were in there, nor did they have a crippled leg. He was sure it was rough for them, but their experiences were not the same, and he didn’t much appreciate them comparing the two.
“Hey Crutchie! Feelin’ any better?” Elmer.
“I’d feel better if people would stop askin’ me that,” Crutchie grumbled. Elmer laughed, his eyes lighting up.
“Les an’ Davey an’ me made you this,” he said, holding something out. He dropped it in Crutchie’s lap, who stiffly picked it up with bandaged fingers and examined it closely. It was a loop of yarns, braided together in blue, green, and brown to make a bracelet.
“You don’t gotta put it on your wrist now,” Elmer said, obviously proud. “But we all made it! You can sees where I started braidin’ after Les, ‘cuz it gets better there.”
Crutchie felt tears pricking at his eyes as he looked, and yep--there was a section where it went from messy to a little less so. “Thanks, Elmer. I’m . . . I’m touched.” he glanced up into his face, seeing it split into a huge smile. “You wanna put it on my wrist? My fingers ain’t workin’ so well.”
Elmer did so with care, not even hopping back when Crutchie flinched at the touch. Then he gave a little bow and a wave, and darted off.
Next up were Romeo and Henry, who awkwardly told him about their day and asked about his. Seeing as how Crutchie had been unconscious for the majority of the day, there wasn’t much conversation to be made on his end. It was nice to hear about what they’d been doing, though. Crutchie could usually see Romeo from his selling spot, and they sometimes sold together.
“Some o’ the regulars is askin’ after you,” Romeo told him with a pat on the shoulder. Crutchie didn’t have the energy to hide his wince. “Told ‘em they oughtta be proud o’ you, you took on the Delanceys and won!”
Crutchie choked. “I ain’t done anything of the sort!” he sputtered. Romeo chuckled.
“I’m a newsie, what can I say?” he shrugged and patted his shoulder again, then wandered off with a bit of a dazed look on his face. Henry gave him a quick goodbye and followed.
Tommy Boy was just saying hello when Jack began to usher them out, saying something about how they needed to go run off their energy somewhere not here. For once, Crutchie was grateful for Jack’s motherhenning. He felt like he was going to shake right out of his body. The newsies were a tactile bunch, and normally Crutchie had no problem with that, but today it made his skin crawl and his brain go bleary. He’d also never been troubled by crowds of any size, but the room was beginning to feel unbearably full and loud.
When he looked up again, everyone but Jack was gone--and Katherine? When had she come in?
Not another person, Crutchie thought, then immediately felt bad. Jack had mentioned her a few times, and he inferred that she was sort of the person who got him out. He could have the civility to talk to her.
“Crutchie, how are you feeling?” Katherine asked, hurrying over. Crutchie bit his tongue to keep from responding rudely.
Katherine looked him over, the smile in her words slowly fading as she took him in. Finally, she met his eyes, and nodded. “Jack was right, you’re looking a lot better than yesterday.”
“Thanks, I think?” Crutchie said, something catching in his sore throat and causing him to cough violently. His chest seized up, his body wracked with agony at the pain that came from the shuddering coughs. When he recovered enough to open his eyes, Jack was holding the cup of water right under his nose.
“Don’ be gettin’ sick on me, Crutchie,” Jack said, sounding more worried than teasing. Crutchie swallowed down the last of the water and coughed one more time.
“I’s gettin’ sick just ta spite you, now,” Crutchie said weakly. Katherine and Jack both laughed, a little wildly, a little wrong. That bothered him, in ways that he couldn’t quite put together. Why didn’t they sound normal?
Something in the smell of the room was starting to make him feel sick. Had he eaten anything since the scraps that one morning? He had, hadn’t he? Jack had given him something earlier. Well, at least he knew there was something in his stomach to be tossed up if it came to that. That had to be easier on his throat than dry heaves.
“Crutchie, you heard that the Refuge has been shut down for good, haven’t you?” asked Katherine, trying to find somewhere to pat him kindly. She settled on the edge of the mattress.
Wait, what?
The Refuge? Shut down--for good? That wasn’t possible, was it? Snyder had a perfect reputation with the city. They’d never shut down a place that worked so well because a few teenage boys told them to.
“It what?” he said out loud, looking between Jack and Katherine, hoping to see some sign of humor. They had to be pulling his leg. Katherine only nodded, though, and Jack gave him a concerned glance.
“I told ya that already,” Jack said. “Remember? This mornin’?”
Crutchie thought back. Maybe? He remembered pieces of their conversation, but it was pretty blurry. He also remembered seeing a lizard crawl up the windowpane. He’d assumed it was a dream, but maybe it had actually happened. That was pretty cool.
“Anyway, I showed Governor Roosevelt some of Jack’s drawings,” Katherine pushed on. “He investigated it immediately, and went personally to shut it down and arrest that awful man!”
“The governor,” Crutchie repeated, dumbfounded. Jack had ridden in the back of his carriage once. Had he met the governor and not even been conscious?
Now that he thought about it, though, he had vague flashes . . . a man with a mustache saying something to someone out of sight . . . the same man holding water for him to drink . . . had he met the governor and let the man baby him?
“The doctor said he doesn’t know what your recovery will look like, but he thinks you’ll make a full one if nothing gets infected,” Katherine told him, and Crutchie was torn from his mortification to incredulation.
“A doctor?” He couldn’t afford a doctor! He didn’t even have enough money saved to miss more than a few days of work, how would he--
“Don’t worry,” Katherine said, waving him off with a little laugh, “Governor Roosevelt handled the cost. You were concerned about it when it happened, too.”
Crutchie made himself relax a little bit. He couldn’t turn down a free handout in his condition, especially not from the governor. The governor.
“And, speaking of. . . .” Katherine trailed off, looking uncomfortable. Jack took her hand and gave her a strained smile. Crutchie looked at the two of them. Were they together?! Why had no one told him?
“I sort of need to change your bandages,” Katherine said apologetically. Crutchie blanched, and she hurried to add, “It’ll be quick! Just clean wrappings--” she waved a bag-- “and some soap and water, then you can rest.”
Yeah, sure, but there was a huge problem. Katherine was a girl. It wasn’t that she was weak for being a girl or anything, but Crutchie really didn’t want to subject a lady to the mess that was his body right now. Or anyone, for that matter. In fact, if they could both just leave the room and give him the bandages and stinging stuff, he’d get it done himself.
When he tried to tell Katherine just that, she snorted. “Crutchie, no offense, but I don’t think you could beat a toddler with pneumonia in a fight right now. There’s no way you could do this yourself, or any way you could stop me or one of the others doing it for you.”
Crutchie’s blood ran cold. He couldn’t stop them. She was right. They could do anything they wanted to him, and he was powerless to do anything. They wouldn’t even need to hold him down.
Crutchie only nodded when she asked him if she could change his bandages, his throat completely dry. Jack watched him for a moment, and Crutchie tried to not look back. He didn’t want Jack to see how petrified he was. After a moment, Jack made up some nonsense excuse about checking on the other boys and left.
Left to get them, probably. Or maybe something to hit him with. Or both. After all, he was a pretty easy target right about now, who wouldn’t want a go? He could barely move, let alone fight back. Crutchie’s stomach turned as an image of Race taking bets on how long he’d be conscious forced itself into his head.
“Can you sit up all the way, Crutchie?” Katherine asked, and he cringed. They were going to make him sit up? Were they going to make him move from this bed, too? It was Jack’s, he’d realized earlier. Jack probably wanted it back.
He pushed himself up, slowly, agonizingly. His head pounded and his back throbbed and his stomach wouldn’t stop sloshing around the water in it, but he sat up anyway, slowly adjusting so that his legs hung off the bed. By the time he was fully sitting up (hunching over like he wanted to made it harder to breathe) Crutchie had broken a light sweat, his hair sticking a little to the back of his neck. Katherine wouldn’t hurt him, right? She was a girl, and she was upper-class. They made other people do that for them.
“I’m going to start with this cut on your cheek, okay? It looks like it’s fine, I just want to make sure it’s clean.”
Crutchie braced himself, closing his eyes. He just wanted to sleep for a little bit longer. Couldn’t it go back to Jack softly giving him water and drawing while he dozed? That was nice. That was safe. Couldn’t they do that for just a little bit longer before they got to all the bad stuff?
Katherine’s touch on his face made him flinch back, but that was all it was. A touch. A piece of wet cloth, rubbed on his cheek. It wasn’t too bad, so far. It was almost a little nice.
“Your forehead’s pretty warm,” he heard her say, distantly. He didn’t respond. It was taking all his effort to stay still and upright.
Crutchie tried to retreat to the back of his mind as he felt Katherine undoing the buttons on his shirt, but he couldn’t get out of here. He was straining his ears to hear something, anything--the boys bounding upstairs, or cheering, or something like that that would give him time to prepare for what was to come.
He was broken out of it, though, when his already aching chest burst into flames. He cried out, opened his eyes--Katherine was holding a red-stained cloth, looking apologetic.
“I’m so sorry,” she murmured, “but one of your cuts is infected. It’s going to hurt a bit. Do you think you can focus on me?”
Crutchie would’ve laughed if he wasn’t busy taking as shallow breaths as possible. He could barely focus on anything. He looked down to see the patchwork of bruises and scrapes that was his chest, and saw that yes, the largest one looked irritated and weepy. That one had been giving him trouble from the first day.
Something touched his hand and he started, then stared down at it. Katherine was holding his hand. Why?
“We can wait until you’re ready,” she said, and Crutchie wasn’t sure that he would ever be ready, but nodded as a go-ahead.
He watched now as Katherine gently and carefully cleaned each wound, calming more with each reassuring squeeze of her hand when the liquid stung. Something about her hand in his was comforting, almost grounding. It was as if his perception had been blurred with panic, and her hand cleared the mist enough that he could ground himself against the contact and the quiet openness of the room. He was alive.
Instead of making him move, Katherine climbed over the bed in a very unladylike manner and dressed the marks on his back. This was worse. With no one to hold onto and no way to see what was happening, Crutchie dug the sore fingers of his right hand into his left upper arm. It gave him a sensation to focus on that wasn’t the painful touches on his back, something that he could control. That helped, a little bit. What didn’t help was the fact that Crutchie couldn’t stop staring at the door, waiting for it to burst open at any minute.
Katherine wrapped his torso and helped him get his shirt back on before moving down to his legs, which made Crutchie even more uncomfortable. He tried to shift away, even told her he could do this part, despite knowing full well that he was about two minutes from passing out. She was a lady, it was improper.
Katherine was sympathetic. “I can go get Jack,” she offered. “Or one of the other boys, if you’re more comfortable with that.”
No. No no no no no no no. Couldn’t they do this for a little while longer first? Just Katherine holding his hand and cleaning his chest. She seemed to see his panic, because she immediately softened.
“How about this,” she said. “I’ll only do from the knees down, and then I’ll turn around while you clean the rest, okay?” Crutchie nodded. That sounded okay. Embarrassing, of course, but so much better than the alternative.
Katherine pulled one of the blankets from where it was tucked in and draped it over his legs. With her steadying him, Crutchie managed to get his pants down to his ankles, then let her take over, his face burning. She was a girl, after all. It felt so wrong, to let her clean his legs.
She made quick work of it though, and handed Crutchie the brown bottle of what seemed to be soapy water and the cloth before turning around. He watched her for a moment, making sure she wasn’t going to peek, then quickly yet haltingly rubbed the cloth along his thighs. There luckily was nothing more than bruises and a single cut there, and he was done in a few minutes. By that point, he could barely hold his head up. Instead of pulling his pants back on, he just fell back against the bed, groaning.
Katherine tucked him back in, resting a hand on his forehead again. “Do you think you have a fever?”
That would make a bit of sense, wouldn’t it? It was the middle of summer, it had to be sweltering out, and here he was under three blankets with the window closed. He was sure he had other symptoms too, but he didn’t really remember, so he just shrugged and closed his eyes.
Katherine sighed, rubbing his fingers. “Crutchie, I need you to stay awake for a few minutes. Jack’s bringing you something to eat.”
Crutchie forced his eyes back open. He didn’t want to be awake. He’d been tired this whole time and now his body felt like it was going to fall apart. As if summoned, though, the door at the other end of the room creaked open, and in came Jack, holding a bowl in one hand and some bread in the other.
“I sent Sniper down ta Jacobi’s,” he said by way of introduction. Crutchie tried to move his arms, but they felt weighed down. He didn’t really want to eat, he wanted to sleep. He really wanted to sleep, actually, so badly that he felt his eyes begin to burn with tears. Why weren’t they letting him sleep?
There was bread in front of him and Crutchie stared at it uncomprehendingly. What was he supposed to do with that? He couldn’t take it, his arms weren’t moving. 
He blinked and it had been replaced by a bowl of something, which gradually came closer as he watched. Someone wormed a hand underneath his neck to prop his head up, making him shiver and twitch. He didn’t like that at all, but there was nothing he could do. Maybe now they were going to beat him. At least he’d probably be too out of it to notice.
The bowl pressed against his lips and Crutchie opened his mouth, choking as some of its liquid slipped down his throat. That was far more warm than he’d been expecting, not quite searing his tongue, but coming close to it. It drew back again, then more spilled into his mouth. This time, Crutchie drank, paying no mind to the flavor or temperature. He just hoped they would let him sleep after this.
Sure enough, with a few last drops of broth, the bowl was empty and the hand under his neck pulled away, leaving Crutchie to fall back against the pillow. Before his eyes were even closed, he was pulled into darkness.

Sequel to The Bird Cage
Tumblr media
Waking up next to your husband, you find yourself coddling to his body like a monkey to a tree. Your head presses to his chest before whining quietly. You were embarrassed at how needy you became to be filled by him. Everything during that encounter felt like a blur, to say the least. You feel Jimin’s hand rub at the scar on your back before kissing your forehead. “What’s wrong, Kitten?” He whispers quietly in the large bedroom. 
You take into account how dark it’s gotten outside, you must have slept for quite a long while. You shake your head before kissing his bare chest. He clicks his teeth before hugging you tightly to his body. “Let’s get you a bath and then we have to talk.” His voice is soothing yet, you still find yourself becoming nervous at his tone.
“Talk? Talk about what?” You mumble as he sits up, pulling you with him. He doesn’t say another word before he’s lifting you bridal style towards the bathroom. That’s when the panic sets in. “Are you breaking up with me?” You whisper as you wrap your arms around his neck.
He snorts, a breathy noise before rolling his eyes. “You’re the only woman I’ve ever loved apart from my mother. You think I’d let the love of my life go? Because of what? You rode my cock for my child?” He kisses your forehead before kicking open the bathroom door. 
“I don’t know.” You mutter out weakly as he sets you down on the marble bench. “You’re silly, Kitten.” 
The water is turned on and Jimin crouches in front of you before brushing some stray hairs out of your face. “I need to talk with you seriously. And, unlike your normal self. You need to listen.” 
You swallow thickly before nodding as he caresses your cheek with his thumb. “I need you to have Rina run the Bird Cage for a while.” You open your mouth before furrowing your eyebrows. “What?! No! I-”
“What’d I say?” He whispers before closing his eyes. You press your lips together as he runs his hand underneath the bath water. 
"Come." He whispers before taking off his sweatpants. You stand up with him before sitting in your porcelain bathtub. He finds his place behind you before sighing at the feeling of the hot water. He leans forward before testing the water on his skin and making it a bit cooler.
He knows it's not the best for pregnant women to be in scalding hot water. Something he learned from when you were pregnant with Minseok. He grabs the soap before running the bar over your back. "I need you to take time off from the Bird Cage because your health is the number one thing from now on. You hear me?"
Your eyebrows furrow as he kisses the back of your neck. "No eating raw fish, no drinking alcohol, no smoking anymore. None of that."
He thinks you're pregnant? "Babe. We had sex a few hours ago, you don't know if I'm-" 
"Yes, Kitten. I do. I know your body better than anyone and I'll prove it when we get out of the bathtub. Now just listen to me." You roll your eyes before cupping your hand and running water over your chest as you feel a chill bring goosebumps to your skin. "Minseok's pregnancy was difficult. For the both of us, but it took a toll on you. I need you to be safe with my child within you. You need to hand the reins to Rina for the time being at least until you're three or four months pregnant."
You sigh gently before running your wet hands over your face. "Casino Night." You state those two words before he leans back against the tub. 
"It'll have to wait." You turn your body quickly, water splashing over the sides of the tub before your perfectly manicured finger digs into his honey colored chest. "No. I'm not waiting to get my revenge."
His jaw tightens as you fold your arms. "Put your hand on your stomach." He instructs you and you sigh loudly. 
"Chim." You whine at a loss. There's no way in hell he is going to budge and you won't budge either. "Put your hand on your stomach, Kitten. I won't say it again."
You roll your eyes before doing as you're told. He puts his hand over yours before pressing gently at your womb. "My baby is in here. Our baby. You're going to protect it with every ounce of strength within you. And, you're going to wait to get revenge on the Im's because our child will be at risk too." He seethes through clenched teeth.
His hands come up to your face as you try to pull away. "Do you hear me?" You hum to him gently. 
You can feel how hard your womb is. "Answer me with words, Kitten." He mutters and you closed your eyes before nodding.
"If I'm pregnant, I'll put it on pause." He nods once before grabbing the soap again. "Good girl."
Tumblr media
Your nail is situated between your teeth as you gnaw at it nervously. Jimin looks up from the chess board before looking down at his Rolex. "One more minute."
"God! Why does it take so long?!" You yell before your eyes flicker down to the stick in the middle of the table. "You can just take my word for it. If that helps." 
You narrow your eyes at your husband before throwing your head back and groaning long and low. You want to be pregnant, truthfully. It's all you've been wanting lately, and you know Jimin has been dying for another baby too. You find yourself coming to terms with pushing everything aside for the baby, if you are indeed pregnant. Jimin is making it out to be that he's so confident in his answer but you notice how his eyes keep flickering to the stick as well. It's something you both want. Now more than ever as the long, thin white stick teases you for another minute.
“I love you.” He whispers before opening his arms. You pout before standing up and sitting on his lap. He rubs at your bare back, kissing over your shoulder. “You’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. I love you so much, you know that don’t you Kitten?”
“I love you too.” His hand wraps around your neck before pulling you into a kiss. His tongue licks at the seam of your lips before he’s pulling away and checking his watch. He exhales a long breath you didn’t know he was keeping before nodding. “Okay. It’s time.” 
You both stare at the stick, neither one of you making a move to pick it up. Three knocks come at the door and you both jump before clearing your throats. “One minute!” You call out before scampering over to the bed and grabbing your silken nightgown.
You slip it on before Jimin tells them to come in. Mirae opens the door with Minseok in his arms as he sniffles with a pout. “Aigo.” You whisper before holding your arms out for your son.
“He wants his mommy.” She whispers before smiling, you nod as his chubby hands open and close for you. Jimin chuckles quietly, his heart expanding at the sight before turning his body towards Mirae. “Mirae, can you read this please.” 
She looks over at the stick before widening her eyes. “Me? Are you sure.” 
You breathe a sigh of relief at his idea before nodding fervently, “Yes, please. Tell me what it says.” You mutter to her as Minseok puts his mouth to your bare shoulder.
You kiss your son's forehead as you rock him gently against you. She walks forward grabbing the stick before Jimin stands up, brushing off his sweatpants. He rounds the table before wrapping his arms around you and kissing the top of his son’s head. “Please God, please.” You hear him whisper under his breath.
You suck in a breath as she brings the stick up to her eyes before narrowing them to read. “Pregnant.” Jimin lets out a loud breath before falling to his knees. His arms grip around your thighs before a sob rips from his throat.
“I told you, Kitten. I fucking told you.” He cries into your nightgown and you feel your eyes well up with tears before kissing Minseok’s forehead again with trembling lips. “Did you hear that Min? You’re getting a brother or sister!”
Jimin cries loudly at your words before gripping at your nightgown. “I love you, Kitten. I love you so much!” 
You sniffle before wiping at your face, your eyes find Mirae’s and you both look down at your husband before giggling gently. This was all you needed before your mind was snapping back to reality. You got what you wanted, there was no more cowering or walking around in a shroud of guilt. The Vixen was back and God save anyone that’s in your way.
Tumblr media
Jimin lays his head on your stomach before kissing your flat stomach for the billionth time. “I love you.” He murmurs into your skin before hugging your thighs tightly. 
You laugh gently before running your fingers through his hair. “I love you too Chim.” He sighs before the door creaks open, he grabs his gun from underneath the pillow. He cock it before raising it slowly in case it was one of the babies. Namjoon appears and Jimin groans loudly before aiming the gun at his head. “What? What do you want? You’re like an omen for bad news.”
Namjoon clears his throat before intertwining his fingers in front of his body. “I do have bad news, actually.” He whispers. Jimin fake sobs before putting his forehead to your stomach. “What?! What happened?!” 
Namjoon opens his mouth as Jimin uncocks the gun. “Jeongguk has disappeared.” 
Jimin sits up quickly before widening his eyes. “What do you mean disappeared?” He asks, sticking his neck out as if to hear Namjoon better. 
You stand up before anything else, walking into your walk in closet to get changed. You can’t leave Jeongguk alone right now. He needs to be found.
“He just...Disappeared, Boss. Without a trace.” Jimin yells in frustration, hands tightening into fists before punching one of the bed posts. “What about his phone? You're fucking surveillance, why weren't you surveilling!" You call out to Joon as you take off your nightgown. 
“He broke it so we couldn’t trace him.” Jimin licks his lips before groaning loudly. “He just walked out the front door without anyone noticing?”
“He left through the tunnel. Stumbled...out...of the tunnel.” Jimin sighs before putting his gun in the waistband of his pants. His fingers card through his hair as you emerge in leggings and a Balenciaga hoodie. “No. No. You’re pregnant, remember? You aren’t going anywhere!”
You grab the car keys from your bedside drawer before shaking them and walking out of the bedroom. “KITTEN!” Jimin yells loudly before rushing after you. 
“You’re pregnant?!” Namjoon calls surprised as Jimin grabs your shoulders. “Yes.” You say with a wide smile to Joon before looking at your husband expectantly.
“Stay here. With the babies, while I go find Guk.” You kiss your husband’s cheek before wrinkling your nose at him. “No.” You say simply before descending the stairs with a glee filled strut.
“You remember how I told you that pregnant women are the craziest kind of women?” Jimin mumbles to his older crew member. Namjoon nods slowly as he looks down at his boss. “Case and point right there. She’s so excited to be pregnant, she will not even listen.” He mutters before descending the stairs.
“Kitten! Come on! Stay inside!” He yells out to you before following you down the left hand staircase.
Tumblr media
You didn’t stay inside, instead you were in the back seat next to your husband as Namjoon drove slowly down the roads by the mansion trying to find the youngest member of the Lions Den. Jimin’s phone rings before looking down at the caller ID. “Tae.” He mumbles putting the phone on speaker before narrowing his eyes out the window. 
“No sign of him on the East side of the house.” Jimin sighs gently before closing his eyes. “Where is this kid? We can’t let him stumble through the streets like this.” 
You hang your head out the window, feeling the dry summers breeze on your face before looking at the rows of mansions in the distance. “Think he’s going to Busan?” Taehyung asks through the phone.
“Didn’t bring his wallet, just knives and his gun.” Namjoon calls from the front of the Escalade, Jimin growls at this knowledge before leaning his head back against the leather seat. Your hand finds his, intertwining them and he puts your hands over your flat stomach before scoffing. “We’ll find him. We have to.”
Hours passed, the night turned into morning and Jeongguk still was nowhere to be found. You had looked everywhere for this kid and it seemed like he suddenly became a ghost. You had even slept on Jimin’s shoulder as you stopped to get gas for the car. “Why don’t we get you home? Hmm? In bed?” Jimin whispers as he runs his hand over your hair.
“We need to find him.” You reply, widening your eyes to try and stay awake. “You’re going to be more tired from now on, with the baby and everything. Just let me take you home. Please, Kitten.” 
You can tell your husband is absolutely exhausted, he chugs down his third espresso without another word as Namjoon hops into the car. “Hmm? Kitten?” He asks quietly.
You don’t want to give him another thing to worry about. He already has shit on his plate. He’s beginning to develop bags under his eyes and you know he needs a shower with how much he’s been sweating out of nervousness. You go to nod to your husband before his phone rings loudly. All three of you jump at the loud ringer before he’s answering it.
“Hoseok.”
“Itaewon! Get to the warehouse! Now!” He yells before hanging up. “Oh fuck!” Jimin whines loudly as Namjoon revs the engine before speeding off towards the warehouse.

No Power
A little Harry and kids while we all self isolate/ self quarantine. When storms blow outside only Harry can calm the Styles clan down...
Kids ages: Connor (17), Becca (16), Grayson and Riley (14), Victoria (10), Casey (5)
(Y/u)- your university/college
The wind gusts outside were making you nervous. It was days like these when you wished you and Harry had used protection a bit more often. You hated losing power not because of the dark but because nothing was harder then entertaining six kids at once with ages ranging from 5-17. There was nothing they could all agree on and to make matters worse Harry had gotten stuck in traffic on his way home.
Casey was about ready to cry every time a tree creaked outside, but luckily you had Riley and Grayson distracting her as you went to look for more candle and matches. Connor and Becca came up from the basement with a couple of flashlights. Right behind them ran Vicca with her arms full of board games and puzzles. She raced into the living room and placed them all on the table hurriedly before trying to convince Gray and Riley to play with her. It looked like world war three had taken place in your living room but at this point the only thing that mattered to you was keeping everyone happy. Your “number of days without a cry in the house” chart had been at 0 for the past week and you didn’t think it was going to change anytime soon.
Another gust hit they house as you slowly walked towards the window. You lived in what you called the woods as you were surrounded by trees from every side. It was beautiful year round but every time these strong winds would come around you were feared a tree would fall on the house.
“Swear to god if one of these freak’n trees falls on this house or near it I will tear that man a new one. Told him so many times to get these trees checked but he wouldn’t” you mumbled to yourself as you peaked outside for a moment.
As you were about to close the curtain you heard a crack of thunder and saw lightning shoot down onto the ground, just missing your utility poll. Scared by the noise, Casey began to cry historically and you picked her up in your arms to try and calm her down. Most of your old kids looked quite frightened by the lighting as well so you gave them all a reassuring smile and told them to sit around on the couch in the room.
"Why don't we make that Harry Potter puzzle you brought Victoria" Becca stated as she pulled everyone's attention to the table. The rest of the group nodded their heads and started spreading out the pieces.
“Think they moved the storm up to a tropical storm a couple hours ago. Suppose to be hit a bit harder then expected” Connor stated as he picked up Victoria off the couch, taking her spot so she could sit in her lap.
“Mommy what’s a tropical storm?” Victoria asked as she tugged at the rings on Connor’s fingers as she does with Harry.
“Nothing we need to worry about love, just a little more wind then usual that’s all,” you replied as you craddled Casey in your arms and glared at Connor for bringing it up
"Gray, can you turn on the fire place please? There should be some wood in the garage near the bike rack. Riley can you help him grab up here?” You asked as you walked into the kitchen to get Casey some water.
Both boys nodded and got to work as you placed Casey on the kitchen counter and grabbed her water bottle, refilling it.
"Daddy...... mommy I want daddy" Casey stated in between sniffles and tears.
"He's coming, don't you worry baby. Daddy’s on his way back from work and he’s bringing a special surprise" you said, placing a kiss on her head.
“Happy meal?!” Casey said slightly excited by the prospects of her favorite person bringing her a special treat.
“Maybe, well have to wait and see baby” you whispered as you pushed her hair away from her forehead.
"All done mom" you heard Riley yell from afar.
“Thank you babies” you yelled back before grabbing your phone and sending a quick text telling him to try and hurry. Harry was always good at entertaining them all and that's what you really needed right now.
You paced through the first floor with Casey in your arms as you looked for some blankets seeing as the heating in your house had stopped working a little over an hour ago when the power first went out. After passing a couple out to your children and wrapping one around Casey, you took a sit on the couch next to Becca and waited for Harry. Suddenly and you saw lights outside and you heard a car engine, you realized that Harry was finally home. You were about to get up and greet him at the door when suddenly you heard a horrific crack and boom noise. A course of screams rang from around the room as your kids startled at the noise.
Casey began to sob again in your arms as you quickly turned on your phone flashlight to shine it in everyone in the room, making sure everyone was ok. Carefully, you got off the couch and walked towards the window, seeing a giant tree laying on the ground five feet from your living room window. Shocked at how close it was to your house you slowly backed away from the window, hugging Casey to your chest. The tree had taken down the entire power line with it as it was now laying on your drive way.
You started to pull the blind downs as you heard Harry manually trying to open the garage door to get his car inside.
"Everything's fine guys, don't worry. Rebecca, why don't you take Casey to go wait for daddy at the door. I hear he might have a surprise for everyone" you stated as you wiped the tears from Casey’s face. Casey wriggled out of your arms and both girls ran hand and hand to the garage door.
"Becca light all the candles for me please, I’m going to get some plates out” you stated as you passed her one of the lighters. Riley grabbed the lighter and started swinging it around pointing it at Grayson's hair.
"Let me do it" he said
"Absolutely not. The last thing we need is you burning the house with that" you stated as you grabbed it from him and went to the kitchen to light some candles.
As you were lighting the last one a door creaked and you heard Harry’s voice followed by giggles. Harry walked in carrying Casey in his arms as Becca carried the bag full of greasy food you had persuaded him to buy. You smiled at him as he walked towards you.
"Hi love, how are you?" He asked as he walked into the kitchen and gave you a quick kiss before placing Casey on the counter.
“Mommy mommy, daddy brought me a happy meal” Casey cheered as she kicked her legs against the cabinets.
"Wonderful honey but don’t kick the cabinets. I’m alright H, glad you're home" you replied as you separated the candles from Casey's reach.
"You look like you could use a towel though" you stated as you touched his soaking wet hair and brushed it down a bit. He shook his hair like a dog in your face, causing Casey to burst into giggles. You shook your head and walked to the closet to find a towel for him.
Harry scooped up Casey and walked into the living room to sit with the rest of your kids. As you approached the living room you saw that Victoria had already started spreading out the boxes of chicken nuggets and fries.
You stood behind Harry as he sat on the recliner and placed the towel on top of his head, rubbing it roughly with your fingers to dry his hair. You shook his head side to side which caused a chorus of laughs from Casey and Victoria.
"Jesus love, if you wanted to take my head off there are nicer ways to do it" Harry stated as he brushed his hair back into place with a smile.
"She’s being gentle with you, mom used to try and rip my hair out when she use to dry it" Riley stated
"Yeah. I remember Connor even cried once because he had something sticky that wouldn't come out of his hair and the towel got stuck" Grayson said with a laugh.
Connor scowled, "that did not happen".
“Y’all can dry your own hair from now on then” you grumbled as you started passing out plates to everyone.
You all laughed as Becca started to make crying noises at Connor as he shoved her off the couch. As you all continued to goof off another strike of lightning lit up the sky as the thunder sounded. You looked towards the blinds as Casey clutched herself onto Harry’s shirt.
"Shhh baby it's ok, you're safe" he whispered quietly as he wrapped his arms around her shaking frame and slowly brushed his hands through her hair. Your family served themselves dinner as Connor tucked Victoria inbetween him and Grayson as Rebecca took the love seat and Riley sprawled himself out on the floor.
"Im going to go change quickly and we'll do something fun when I get back, maybe I’ll play the new song I’ve been working on” Harry stated as he stood up and passed you Casey before grabbing a flashlight and walking upstairs.
You shift yourself on the recliner as you laid Casey in your arms while you rubbed her back. You could tell that she was going to fall asleep soon. You all laid around the room munching on nuggets as Becca discussed the soccer tournament she had gone to last week. You heard Harry’s footsteps as he walked into the room wearing one of the (Y/u) shirts he had bought for himself when you started dating. He loved showing you off and had practically bought half of the bookstore when he came to visit you on campus a couple of times.
“Surprised you brought McDonalds dad. Did mom have you in the dog house or something?” Connor asked, reminding you all of the health freak that Harry is.
“Hey I didn’t do anything yet. I figured I would give y’all a treat for not destroying the house today”
“Oh don’t play the hero H, the powers out so we can’t cook dinner. I figured we all deserved a little comfort food for the night” you replied back, sticking your tongue out at your husband as he rolled his eyes.
You got up from the recliner and placed the now sleeping Casey on the large beanbag in the corner of the room where you could keep an eye on her. Wrapping her up in a blanket you left her there to rest as you went to sit on Dylan's lap and cuddle under a blanket with him.
"They said that their won't be power till at least Sunday night" Grayson stated as he scrolled through his phone.
"Well I guess we're all camping out in here than for the night than. I call cuddling with mommy for the night" Harry said as he hugged your body tighter.
"Yes" Riley shouted as he started throwing pillows on the ground and grabbing blankets.
"Riley what the fuck are you doing" Connor questioned as he watched Riley run around.
"Making a pillow fort obviously" he replied. Grayson and Victoria jumped out of their seats to help with the fort.
"Well I guess we’ll all be be sleeping in a fort tonight" Connor replied as he got up to help them.
The rest of that night was spent building the fort while Harry played a couple of his new songs to everyone. Your kids all slept in the pillow fort just like when they were little as you cuddled up to Harry on the recliner and watched your not so little family spend some much needed time together.
“I love you baby, thank you for giving me them.” Harry whispered in your ear as he placed a chaste kiss on your forehead.
“I love you too H” you whispered back as you fell asleep surrounded by everyone you loved.

————daddy issues
𝚊𝚗 𝚘𝚋𝚒 𝚠𝚊𝚗 𝚔𝚎𝚗𝚘𝚋𝚒 𝚡 𝚙𝚊𝚍𝚊𝚠𝚊𝚗!𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚛 𝚘𝚗𝚎𝚜𝚑𝚘𝚝
warnings: angst, daddy issues, some fluff
summary: reader struggles with attachment issues to obi and he comforts
(hi!!! this is my very first oneshot, so constrictive critism is encouraged! i hope you guys liked this one. i was inspired by the song Daddy Issues by The Neighbourhood and just wanted to dive right into this. i kinda like this whole writing thing so please send in some requests and ill try to see if i can make it happen!)
Tumblr media
it was a late night on Coruscant, however the night life was still very much alive. you lay there in your chambers, starring up at the ceiling and listening to the roaring sounds of the night. you hated it here, the temple, the feelings you had to keep in a lock deep down into your very being, and you hated him.
you knew that was a lie. he was magnetic, electric. his own voice rang alarms in your head. his gentle touches rose goosebumps. his presence made you lose all ability to breathe. he had to have sensed it by now, after all these years of training you everything he knows.
when you first realized your feelings for him, you were sure it was nothing and just admiration for a father figure. you were oh so wrong. you realized it was more, with one particular conversation.
you two had been training in a meadow, the most calming place for you to gather your thoughts. after many hours of relentless mind and force controlling on little bugs or rocks, your master decided to let you take a break. he sat down beside you on the ground with a huff.
“another successful day.” he mentioned. he looked over at you with his charming smile. you nodded and laughed. “yea, it was.” a comfortable silence settled between you two. it was nice, but thoughts were whirring inside your brain, not able to handle the thought of him sitting next to you, the man who’s been by your side for years and you’re trying so hard to keep your composure.
he looked over at you with concern in his eyes. the beautiful golden hour hue decorating his face. “little one, your thoughts are so loud.” you know he couldn’t comprehend what you’re saying, but can just hear your brain making a fuss. “sorry...”
“what’s wrong, my young Padawan?” he faced his body in your direction, complete focus and attention on you. you kind of squirmed in your spot. you brought your legs up to your chest and settled your head on your knees, looking at him.
“how do you do it?” you asked. you watched as confusion took over his features. “do what?”
you looked down at the grass, watching a bug land on a blade. “having no father...how do you do it? I’m sorry if...if I came off a little too strong there, master.” you heard a sigh and looked up at him. you watched as he started playing with the grass.
“i had many people to look up to. it was hard at first, not having any father to play catch with. or a mother, but the teachings, Qui Gon...” he trailed off. you watched as he bit his lip. you shouldn’t have brought it up, you wanted to so badly take back your words.
he put a reassuring hand on yours. “it’s quite alright.” his eyes softened. “Master Qui Gon was...a father to me.” he looked directly into your eyes. “and if you see me as one too, ill do whatever I can do for you.”
from that day forward, you’ve been hopelessly attached to your master, Obi Wan Kenobi.
you heard a knock at your door, you could sense it was your master. your heart was beating a mile a minute. with a shaky “come in, master.” he brought himself in.
“i came to drop off your robe, you seemed to have left it in the training room.” he sat down a neatly folded robe at the desk across the room. it wasn’t your robe, yours was in the closet like it always was.
“master, why are you really here?” you asked with a teasing tilt to your voice. he let out light huff and sat at the edge of your bed. “you caught me.”
the city lights and dark purples/blues coming in from the window danced on his face. he was enchanting. you sat up and scooted down the bed to sit next to him. “what’s up?”
“i should be asking you that, i could hear your thoughts all the way across the temple.” you froze. you awkwardly scratched your head. “hah, sorry about that. just worried about our next mission.”
he raised a suspicious eyebrow at you. “I know a lie when I hear one.” you awkwardly shuffled in your spot. he couldn’t know, he couldn’t. he couldn’t know about your embarrassing attachment to him because of your daddy issues and how you’ve been thinking so much about running away with him.
“padawan, id like to try something. but you have to let your shields down.” you whipped your head up to look at him. he was going to read your mind. “i don’t-...im not sure thats a good idea.” he folded his arms.
“young one, i can’t help you if you don’t tell me what’s wrong.” you gulped. having a mini debate in your head. you would finally feel free, having him know the truth. but if he knew, he would transfer you to another master. or even worse, another Jedi temple. you don’t know what you would do if you couldn’t feel him around you anymore. you gripped the sheets with your hands, biting your lip. you didn’t want to leave him. you wanted to see him. but...what if he doesn’t send you away? what if...he understands and helps you? what if he...reciprocates? what if-
he snapped his fingers in front of you. “stars to y/n?” you looked up at him. in a quiet, reassuring voice that could lull you to sleep, he says “i just want to help you.” your mouth felt dry, but how could you say no to ocean eyes like his. you nodded, allowing him acces to your mind. he softly told you to close your eyes and to relax. you tried very hard to relax. you felt his fingers touch your temples, you felt him knock on your shields. you let them down, let all of them down. he was finally going to know everything.
after a few minutes, you felt his fingers slowly leave you. you opened your eyes, looking at him. he looked so sad, so...vulnerable.
he saw everything. he saw the admiration that turned into deep feelings. he saw the sorrow you had built up. he saw the locked box full of thoughts, thoughts about him. he saw the issues you go through. he saw your mind yearning for him and his everything.
“oh, darling. come here.” he said. he immediately brought you into his arms. that’s when you started crying, so quietly into his neck. he felt guilt ridden, and horrible for not being able to be there for you and not knowing. that’s when he realized he knows exactly what you’re going through. “im so sorry, little one. if i would have known your feelings...”
he’s the one taking the heat for it all, and you’re so surprised he’s not disgusted. you gripped onto him for dear life. your body wracked with sobs. “it’s okay to cry, little one.”
after what seemed like many hours of soaking his robe, you finally broke away from his arms and looked up at him. “you’re not mad...why aren’t you mad?” you asked.
both his hands gently cupped your cheeks. his thumb wiped a single tear away from your cheek. your lips were still quivering from how affectionate he was being. “because i know exactly how you feel, you’re not alone.”
your breath hitched. your hands wrapped around his wrists, you leaned into his touch. “on...on which part?” your voice wavered.
you touched foreheads, you felt his breath on your face and all you could do was stare at his lips, and watch them as he said “all of them.” he gently connected his lips with yours.

send your regards | jeff wittek
mobster!jeff x reader
Tumblr media
summary: y/n and jeff both find out some pretty unsettling things about their relationship
warnings: cursing, horribly written, hella mistakes, im just not that happy with it 
3k words
y/n didn’t find herself in a relationship very often, so she understood why her friends were so eager to hear about this new guy she had been seeing for about five months. they’ve had to watch y/n come home in the early hours of the morning, new designer items pop into her closet and her mood suddenly shifted from her usual unbothered attitude to a brand new happy woman and hadn’t even heard a peep about who caused all these changes in their friend’s life.
but today was the day, y/n’s small group of friends sat crowded around her bed as she started to tell them about her newfound relationship- if she could even call it that. “we met at sandy’s, the club near the outlet mall. and you know me when i have one, two many drinks. i thought he was gonna kick me out in the morning but ended up making me breakfast and asked for my number.” y/n said, pausing as she noticed the girls were dying to interrupt her story with questions.
“how was it?” 
“what does he look like?”
“what’s his name?”
“eggplant and baby carrot?” 
“does he have a brother?”
y/n’s eyes widen at the abundance of words thrown her way, she knew they were curious but not this much so. “one, that’s for me to know, court. two, he’s really fucking hot, i’ll show you guys a picture in a second, three his name is jeff wittek-”
before she could go any farther, her older friend, nora blurted out: “What?! Jeff?” y/n gave her a questionable look, urging nora to quiet down and explain her sudden outburst. “y/n, no, you have to end things, you can’t get involved with him.” she said frantically. “h-he’s not a good person.”
“what are you talking about?” y/n asked, her eyebrows furrowed. jeff was one of the kindest people she met whenever they were together, she couldn’t imagine a bad bone in his body. what nora was saying didn’t add up, it seems her friend must have been confused and was talking about the wrong jeff. since the first time she met him he had been nothing but nice to y/n and the people around them and every one of jeff’s friends were also highly kind to her. 
“are you stupid, y/n? jeff wittek is the mob boss that haunts this god forsake town. how could you be so clueless and naive?” nora whispered harshly, causing all the girl’s eyes to widen. they’ve never seen nora act this way, she was always chill and down to earth so to see her blowing up as she was, was shocking. 
everyone had their attention focused on nora they completely missed the look of horror on y/n’s face. little pieces of the puzzle were starting to come together, she knew he was hiding something but y/n never thought it would be of this capacity. the late-night or early morning phone calls, they obnoxious amount of weapons hidden throughout his house, jeff’s constant stance of authority with everyone around him, the bloodied clothing he swore were nose bleeds or bar fights, and the never-ending pit of drugs he had handy at all times. it all made sense now, y/n had dismissed it because she wanted jeff to tell her what his secret was when he was ready but now y/n really regrets her idea. why would he not tell her? how many people has he killed? would he ever hurt her? 
“do you know what he does? he kills people, y/n.” she seethed, earning unprovable glares from surrounding customers- not that she cared. nora knew what she had to do  and she was willing to do it at any cost. “you better get away before he kills you as he does with all his little whores!”
“nora!”
y/n had heard enough, she swiftly grabbed her coat and purse and made a beeline for the door despite her friend’s calls. frustration was building deep inside her, why had everything gone to shit in a matter of minutes? y/n slammed her hands down on the steering wheel multiple times before resting her forehead against the cool leather. when her mind drifted to jeff a new emotion emerged, fear. she was scared.  
y/n knew she needed to confront jeff or it would eat at her alive, she wants to hear the words come from his own two lips before she made any rash decisions. meanwhile, nora had escaped the mob of anger girls and was standing behind the cafe with a burner phone pressed to her ear and a cigarette between her lips. 
“hello?” a gruff, agitated voice answer on the other line. 
“do i just have the funniest story for you?” she was met with silence from the man. rolling her eyes she continued. “you assigned me to keep on an eye on y/n after you two called it quits but you’ll never guess who’s bed she crawled into...wittek.” 
the sound of glass shattering course through the speakers, he was angry, very angry. “jeff wittek?! you had one fucking, nora! one job, how did you manage to fuck it up?” 
“it’s not my fault.” nora defended herself, she was not threatened but the anger pouring through the phone and she was not going to be blamed for something she didn’t do. “i was finding out right along with her dumbass friends, apparently y/n’s not one to openly talk about relationships because it’s been going on for three months but guessing from  her reaction when she found out, i don’t think it’ll last much longer.”
“if something happens to her because you couldn’t keep your mouth shut, so be it, i will put a bullet in your head.” 
nora chuckled, blowing out a puff of smoke. “don’t joke around like that i might get excited.” 
⇉⇉⇉
todd met y/n at the front door of jeff’s overly large house, he offered y/n a genuine smile but it quickly fell when she didn’t return the gesture and kept her eyes trained on the floor. “hey, are you okay?” he asked, reaching to rest a comforting hand on her shoulder but y/n hopped back before he could come into contact with her. todd took her weird demeanor and silence as a sign to go get jeff, he can always cheer her up. 
y/n was terrified to even be in this house, so many awful things must have gone down on this very floor, so much blood. y/n wanted to vomit at the thought. nora’s words continued to fill her brain, how could she have been so clueless? why did she ignore every sign of danger? y/n shook her shook, trying frantically to think of what to say when she heard the footsteps approaching. jeff walked into the entryway with a pair of tan cargo shorts loosely hanging on his hips. he was beautiful, his dark hair and tanned skin, his eyes, his lips, her eyes wandered down to his toned abs. on any other day, y/n would be quick to pounce on the man, she was still urged to greet him with a kiss even after the newfound news.
“s-stop. stay there.” y/n tried her best not to stutter but nothing could have prepared her for this moment, she wished she would have stayed in the car and driven home but her brain never worked when she wanted it to. y/n held her hand up when jeff ignored her wish, taking a few steps back. “please, jeff.”
“baby, what’s wrong? toddy said you seemed upset.” jeff whispered softly, in hopes of not pushing y/n farther over the edge.
“why didn’t you tell me?” a sob fell through the girl’s lips, a sound jeff swore he never wanted to hear as long as he lived. his mind raked with confusion until he noticed the look hidden in her eyes, his girl was scared of him, practically shaking with fear. how had he let this happen? how did she even find out? 
jeff took a slow stride towards her, putting his hands up in defense. “baby, listen to me-”
“stop! don’t lie to me again, i don’t want to hear any more lies! i want the truth jeff!” y/n shouted, her body simultaneously stood a little taller on her toes until she remembers who she was talking to. y/n went into a frenzy apologizing to jeff, while still keeping her distance but he kept coming closer and she knew this was most likely the end for her. “i’m sorry, i’m so sorry, i-i- please don’t hurt me.” 
jeff froze as he watched y/n break down in front of him, he watched in silence as his nightmares came true. “no, no baby.” he reached a hand out to her cheek, whipping away the tears as new ones took their place. “please don’t say that. i couldn’t even imagine laying a finger on your precious body if it wasn’t to worship every inch. i would never hurt you, ever. okay, y/n, do you hear me? now, tell me who told you.”
y/n sniffled, taking deep breaths at their close proximity. “nora did. she said y-you’d kill me once you were done with me.” her limbs felt numb and hollow, this was all too much. jeff cursed under his breath, looking down as he tried to make any type of connection but he had y/n pretty well hidden. 
“i would never hurt you, i could never hurt you. please, please stop saying that, you’re breaking my heart over here,” he said. 
“but you hurt other people.” she whispered, a lump forming in her throat. “how many people have you killed? how many people's lives have you claimed? what’s to stop you from doing the same to me?” y/n rambled on, asking so many questions, too many questions, pumping more worry into her head. 
“because i love you, goddammit.” jeff shouted, running his fingers through his hair, he watched in horror as y/n flinched away from him, snapping her eyes shut tight, awaiting the blow. “i’m sorry, i’m sorry, i just wish you’d listen to me. i love you, i really do. i wanted to make you my queen, we would lead together. i promise i was going to tell you.”
y/n shook her head. “whatever made you think i’d want to do that?” before jeff could answer she raised her hand to stop him, y/n had heard enough. “i-i need time, this is all too much.” she stood up slowly and started backing away from the man towards the front door, y/n wanted to bolt away but she didn’t know how he would react to that. by the time y/n made it to the door, she looked back a jeff to see todd’s hands on his chest. her heart broke but if he truly did love her jeff would let her think things through. 
“my dear y/n, i knew i’d be hearing from you soon enough.”
for the few days y/n had been with ricky she started to remember why she broke things off with him in the first place. he was obsessive, power-hungry, an asshole and he wasn’t him. ricky wasn’t jeff and as much as y/n wanted to deny it, she missed him greatly. maybe she was realizing she loves him but her mind couldn’t shake the thought of who jeff really was and how he had lied to her for so long. 
“god, y/n, i told you no one could treat you better than i can and you went ahead and got involved with a fucking psychopath.” ricky ranted, lighting another cigarette before turning to y/n, eyeing her carefully. y/n knew what he was waiting for and that’s exactly why she bit her tongue. ricky wanted y/n to defend jeff so he could spit a thousand more reasons why jeff is a horrible person and she was stupid for leaving him in the first place but she was not giving him the satisfaction. y/n was starting to realize calling ricky in the first place was a mistake, he clearly had gotten worse since she left; he took her phone, won't let her leave the house, monitors all her meals, and even controls what she wears. ricky was sick.
“my sweet doll, you naive, pathetic precious being,” ricky brushed his fingers across y/n’s chin, scowling as she pulls away from his touch. he was right where he wanted to be, he not only had y/n in his clutches but he had something he could use to bring jeff down. “how do you think i know so much about wittek?” he asked bitterly, the name burning his tongue as he spoke. 
y/n's eyes widen in realization. “because you're just like him.” y/n spoke, defeat clear in her voice. while running from one leader she ran straight into the arms of another mobster, she now more than ever she could be back at home cuddled up with jeff on the couch not stuck in a prison with her crazy ex-boyfriend. 
“no!” he shouted, slamming his fist on the wall. “i am nothing like him, i’m so much better. jeff wittek wishes he could be like me, lead like me, own what i have.” his eyes cast down to y/n’s frightened face, a wicked smile gracing his features. this wasn’t the same ricky y/n used to know, he changed, became a violent version of himself. before he had always been obsessive and controlling but never once had he been violent towards y/n or anyone for a matter of fact. 
“you’re sick, ricky!” he would have thought she knew to keep her mouth shut but y/n was never one to bite her tongue. it infuriated ricky that she didn’t fear him the way she feared jeff, when y/n first called him to pick her up her voice was trembling with fear. why wasn’t she scared of him too? he was just as horrible as jeff, so he thought. ricky grabbed y/n’s arm, dragging her to the living room towards the stairs when a voice halted all movement in the room. 
“it’s taking everything in me to not rip your throat out with my teeth.” jeff smirked at the ricky while basking in his frightened appearance. when he finally found out where y/n was, he went out of his mind, doing everything he could to formulate a plan to get her back or away from that psycho. it was supposed to go down two days from now but when jeff got a text from nora he knew he couldn’t wait any longer to retrieve his girl. 
ricky’s mouth opened and closed, he became a stuttering mess as he tried to form words. “h-how? what are you doing here?” he asked, his grip tightening. sure, he was scared shitless- he’d never actually seen or been face to face with jeff fucking wittek -but he wasn’t going to back down just yet, everyone had a weakness and ricky seemed to have found jeff’s. 
a chuckle could be heard from the mob boss. “newbie’s, man.” he mumbled, turning to todd who had a fancy-looking gun pointed at the rookie. “they’re always so naive.” 
nora made her appearance next to ricky, shoving a needle in his neck before he could react. he slipped to the floor, the hand constricting y/n falling swiftly to the ground with the rest of his limp body. she yelped, jumping away from nora and ricky’s body. y/n was sure everyone in the room could hear her heartbeat rumbling in her chest, all eyes were on her and all y/n could do was stare blankly at them. 
“y/n, come on.” nora coaxed the girl over to her side with a warm smile and a desperate expression, jeff narrowed his eyes as he watched the scene unfold. he knew nora wasn’t completely loyal to him or the mob but he didn’t think she would try and take y/n away from him after all he’s done for her. 
“no, y/n come to me!” jeff countered, earning a highly confused look from the girl. jeff sucked in a sharp breath when nora lost her patience and wrapped her arm around y/n, moving her into a chokehold and pointed a gun to her head. both of the guys pointed their guns at the hostage and her capture, nora had officially crossed the line of his mercy and she would not be leaving this building alive. but before jeff or todd could do anything y/n nailed nora in the stomach, grabbed her arm and pulled it back causing her to drop the gun she held onto right into y/n’s awaiting hand. not a second later she hit nora in the head with the butt of the gun, knocking her out cold. 
“god, she was annoying.” y/n muttered, dragging her hand along her throat. when she finally turned to face the boys with a smirk matching their confused and perplexed expressions. “i can tell by the look on your face, you knew, didn’t you.” 
“i prayed it wasn’t true. ignored it because i loved you, y/n.” jeff said, balling his fist at his side. even aiming a gun at his girlfriend felt foreign, it felt wrong, like he was betraying her and himself at the same time. “after your performance i didn’t believe the rumors but i guess that was a lapse in my judgment, huh?”
y/n internally flinched at the jeff’s use of ‘loved’, she wished the could have met in another light, where they were free to fall in love and be normal- rather than stuck in the life of mobs and mafias. “loved? god, jeff, you both were my targets but somehow i’m gonna get on this helicopter only eliminating one.” she explained painfully, her life with the boy she cares for so much a mere spec now, the life she built was years gone with the simple wave of a hand.  “i-i love you too and i won’t kill you, not now at least, baby. i’ll send your regards to my father.”

The Kids From Yesterday
This is the song I listened to while making this
Genre: angst im sorry seungmin ily
Warnings: Mentions of drugs, suicide attempts, death, hospitals
Tumblr media
Seungmin was your best friend. He always had been. He’d been with you at your worst and always managed to make you feel your best. He found you when you had nearly overdosed, he had been there for you every time you got your heart broken, he would always distract you from your icky dark moods. He was everything you could ask for in a friend. He was your whole world.
And you were his.
When he found you laying limply on your bathroom floor, he was terrified that he had lost you. He froze and dropped the bags in his hands when he saw the near-empty bottle of pills laying beside your hand. He rushed over to your body and tried desperately to shake you awake. He was crying so much. He didn’t know what he would do without you and was so scared that you weren’t coming back. He called the hospital and you were rushed to the emergency room to get your stomach pumped. He wanted to stay by your side through it all, and almost fought one of the doctors telling him to wait outside. He didn’t sleep a wink until he saw you were resting peacefully. He got mad at you for scaring him like that, and told you sternly never to do that again. He told you if you felt like doing yourself harm that he should be the first thing you go to. You felt bad for scaring him, and did as he said, as best you could, from then on.
Seungmin would always be at your side when you got your heart broken. He hated seeing you cry. He hated seeing you so worked up over another boy. In all honesty, he was kind of jealous that you were in love with someone who wasn’t him, but he always kept it to himself. He would buy you chocolates and flowers and ice cream and anything to make you feel comfortable. He would give you an endless amount of attention, and leave you alone when you needed space. 
You recall the times he took you outside to Lotte World or a festival or even just the park when you’d feel upset. He knew when you had your mood swings, and would always do what he could to help you out. He always knew when something was wrong and always try to come up with a solution to your problems, or reassure you that you’re great the way you are when you felt insecure. He would tell you he cared about you every day. 
But now you were gone. 
His world shattered to pieces when he found your body. He knew you were gone the moment he saw you. He felt his chest tighten before he choked out a sob. He felt it was his fault you were gone. He didn’t do enough for you, did he? He caused this, didn’t he? It was his fault. He couldn’t save you. He never even got to tell you how he really felt.  He never got a chance to say goodbye. 
He cried day and night before and after your funeral. He ignored all the texts and calls he got. He rarely ate. He slept more than ever. There was nothing to keep him going anymore. His best friend was gone. The love of his life was gone. You were gone. There was no point anymore. He couldn’t be happy anymore. He would only be happy when you were with him.
He got to his lowest point a month after you left. He stared at the closet you had taken your last breath in. He looked down at the rope in his hands. He would finally see you again. He could finally be happy again. He’d be reunited with you and everything would be okay.
He was about to kick the chair away until he heard your voice echo in his head.
“Don’t do it.”
It made him freeze. Your voice was so present, so… there. It rang in his ears as his eyes filled with fresh tears.
“Seungmin, get down.”
He practically fell to his knees when he got down. He sobbed harder than he ever had. He missed you so much. Why were you telling him to stop?
“Live for me.”
He cried harder until he tired himself out, where you met him in his dreams. You convinced him to stay. You convinced him to live for you. You were weak, you told him. He was strong. You told him you would still be in his heart. You’ll continue to watch over him. He needed to live for you. He told you he loved you, but you were already gone and he always woke up when the words left his lips.

I love both of you dearly. thank you.

Tumblr media
Warm, almost hot water, rained down on your body. Heat seeped into your skin, washing away the goosebumps that previously ran on the surface of your skin. Head tilted back, you wrapped your arms around yourself. Naked. Vulnerable. The shower always had a tendency to make you feel exposed even though you are alone. Standing in the glass chamber, the heat fogged the glass walls that surround you. 
Pinching at the skin of your arms, you bite down on the skin of your lips, feeling the knot begin to form in the back of your throat. You listened to the water softly hit the marble floor, creating a puddle by your feet before it went down the drain. A shuddery breath escaped your lips, the sound drowned out by the water of the shower. Deep breaths, inhale, exhale. You blinked through the tears, vision slightly fogged due to the water. You wrapped your arms tighter around yourself, and slowly lowered yourself to the floor. 
Leaning against the glass, you hang your head. Water gently slapped the top of your wet hair, causing rivulets to run down your face. The tears and water mingled together as one, the sounds of your sobs were drowned out by the rapid water. You don’t register the quiet footsteps, or the squeak of the bathroom door open. 
“Y/n?” It’s barely a murmur. You don’t respond as you bring your knees to your chest, placing your face gently in the space where you’re knees meet. Your hair shields your face as you wrap your arms around your legs. 
The door to the shower opens gently, and then the water turns off. Drip. Drip. Water slides down from the shower head slowly, splashing gently into the pools of water on the shower floor. You don’t look up, not even caring that goosebumps rapidly begin to form on your skin once more. 
Jungkook kneels in front of you. He is just returning from the Ministry, it was a late night, well morning seeing as it was around 2AM. He doesn’t care that his slacks are becoming damp from the shower, or that his hair is wet from the rain that began to drizzle outside as he apparated on the doorstep of your home. 
Jungkook pulls his lips into a thin line, gently biting the skin as he kneels in front of your trembling figure. He reaches out to you, one arm underneath your knees and the other supporting your back. You jerk in his hold gently, placing your arm over your chest. 
“Your clothes will get wet.” You croak, not looking at him. Jungkook remains quiet, as he fully lifts your naked body from the shower floor. Stepping out of the glass chamber, he pulls you tighter to his warmth. 
“Mmm, it’s fine.” He speaks gently, walking out of the connected master bathroom and into the bedroom. The rush of cold meets your naked body. Immediate reaction causes you to curl into Jungkook. He pulls you closer as he walks to your shared bed and gently sits you down. Head still hung low, small shivers rack your body as you curl your toes into the fibers of the rug. Jungkook watches as you wrap your arms tightly around yourself. 
His socked feet disappear briefly from your vision shortly before he returns with a towel and kneels in front of you. Gently, he places a hand on your back, running his smooth fingertips along your spine, he pulls you forward from the edge of the bed to help you stand up. “C’mon sweetheart, need to dry you off,” He speaks gently. Nodding once, you allow him to pull you up from the bed. Once you have stood up, he pulls you arms away from your body, and starts to rub the towel along your skin. First he starts with your shoulders, running the towel along your arms and back. Moving down he then rubs your stomach, and your bottom gently. You look down at him as he presses the most gentle kiss on your abdomen. He looks up at you, and even though the room is only dimly illuminated by the moon, you can see the adoration and warmth pooling from his eyes. 
He makes his way down the rest of your body, before tossing the towel somewhere on the floor. Taking both his hands, he cups your cheeks gently. His rings are cool against your face as he rubs back and forth, fingers trailing against the dried tear streaks. His eyes flit over your face, concern embedded in his irises. 
“I love you,” he says, so quiet. Your lip wobbles, the familiar burn in the back of your eyes is present as you nod rapidly. With shaky hands you wrap them around his neck, pulling him closer to you. Jungkook grips your toil worn body closer, one hand tangling in your knotted, damp hair. The other wrapped tightly around your waist. The smell of linen and vanilla wrap themselves around you, easing the heaviness that has filled your body. Tears stream down your face, as you bite your lip to hold back the sob that threatens to break free. Shaking your head back and forth you feel your legs begin to give out, wanting to crumble onto the floor. Jungkook gripped your body, shaking his head gently. “I love you, so much. It takes so much grace, to not crumble when you are feeling like this.” His words are spoken gently into your hair, as he rocks your body back and forth. 
You nod once. Jungkook's hands slip away from your waist, as he pulls back to look at you. Wet cheeks and puffy eyes peered up at him. Your hands now rest on the silk of his dress shirt, fingering the buttons. No words are spoken as he pushes you gently to sit down again on the bed. Kneeling in front of you, he places his hands on your thighs. “Accio tissue box.” He says. You scrunch your brows together, as you follow his like of vision to a box of tissues that are now in his hand. 
“When did you learn wandless magic?” You ask, genuinely curious. Looking at him, Jeon looks flustered, even in the dim lighting you could see a warm pink seep across his tan skin. He hums a bit, plucking some tissues from the box as you sniffle again.
“Well, you’ve always been good at it, and I wanted to surprise you, so, surprise?” He says, a sheepish smile coming across his face, teeth making an appearance. A small smile overtakes your face as you look at your boyfriend. Returning the smile, he takes the tissues and gently pats the wetness that pooled beneath your eyes. Your eyes flutter as he pats your face. Standing up, he walks back into the bathroom and disposes of the tissues. 
Walking back into the closet, you watch him as he rummages through the drawers. Jungkook throws a shirt and underwear on the bench inside the closet, then proceeds to shed his own dress shirt and slacks before pulling on a pair of green pajama bottoms. 
Running his hand through his hair, he walks back over to you and gestures you to stand up. Obliging, you stand up and look up at him. 
“Arms up, love,” he speaks quietly. Raising your arms, he pulls one of his shirts over your body. The rosy smell of laundry softener briefly encompasses you as the shirt silks past your nose. Your head pops out, and Jungkook comes into view once more. Leaning behind you, he grabs your underwear and kneels in front of you holding out the fabric. Placing both hands on his shoulders, you put each of your feet in the holes and allow him to pull the cotton up your legs. Jungkook doesn’t hesitate to press pecks against your thighs and tummy as he snaps the band around your waist. 
Standing up to his full height, he grabs your hand and pulls you to his side of the bed. Following him, you allow him to lay down. The bed frame creaks quietly, as he shuffles beneath the sheets for a moment. You watch him with amusement, as his hair gets ruffled from the pillow. A moment later, he pulls up the comforter and gestures you to join him. Looking down at him, tears began to well in your eyes once more as you look down at Jungkook. Your Jungkook. The embodiment of warmth, and serenity. Jungkook furrows his brows, watching the tears begin to pool in your eyes once more. His face softens as he sits up, his taut abdomen clenched as he moves through the sheets to grip your wrist. You allow him to pull your body into the sheets with him. Jungkook doesn’t speak as he shifts your weight on top of him-  pulling your thigh across his waist. Silent tears stream down your face as you lay your cheek on Jungkook’s chest, feeling his skin become wet. You swallow, holding back a choked sob. 
“I’m sorr-,” The rest of your sentence goes quiet, words not coming out from your mouth. Confused you try and speak. 
“You may have been always good at wandless magic,” Jungkook says, interrupting your thoughts, “...but you seem to forget I can do wordless casting,” Jungkook teased, gently. You snort, the sound non existent. Jungkook hums, before continuing. “Never apologize for feeling this way. You can’t help it. I will never resent you for it, I will always be here to hold you. Never forget that.” He finished quietly. “I will love you till the end of time, always.”
You don’t speak, looking out the window and watching the rain fall outside. It hits the window, before it joins the other drops. It took you a long time to realize that Jungkook is the sun, and you are the rain. Very different, but still relying on one another. Both helping one another grow, one day at a time. And even now as you lay here, the only sound present is Jungkook’s breathing and the soft pitter of the rain, after every storm there is a rainbow. You will always dance in the rain no matter how cold it is, to wait for the sun. To wait for Jungkook.
