"What would you do if you could just wipe him out of your system, just pull the plug and silence him once and for all? If you could just switch him off?"
"I'd never pull the plug."
"Why so?"
"Because no matter how annoying or toxic his behavior might have been, no matter if in the end he'll "override" me - would you just pull the plug and kill a friend?"
A conversation between Lilith and her brother Ish. He might not be happy about it (as Goro) but Lilith appreciates Johnny's presence more and more and in the end she simply wants him to linger with her.
On a side note: I always imagine how much Johnny would be bickering in a romance scene with Takemura. It would have been hilarious and I always imagine Lilith - before having this first real date with Goro - taking either one of those suppress the little man in your head pills or simply calling Johnny out and tell him to keep th f*** off - for real. xD He'd never would though of course :P

Fujin x Nurse Reader: Neonatal
Tumblr media
Context: Fujin, a guest at a pregnant Sonya and Johnny's hospital room, meets a nurse who works on the exact floor.
(Yes, ik he could've possibly been in the void in canon while Sonya was preggers)
Warning: Angst(?) I don't want to spoil my own one shot lol ~~~~~~~~~~~~ The dim white lights flickered as Fujin slowly walked around the room his mortal friends were in.
Sonya Blade is finally due to birthing her first newborn. He felt honored to be invited to visit her and the soon to be father, Johnny Cage, but he felt he had no place in the room while she's in labor.
Not because the blond woman seemed snarkier than usual, specifically at Cage, but really, why should he be there? It wasn't his child being borne.
So, feeling slightly downed, the friendly wind god decided its best he waits out their door. Fujin would be happy to go back in after the child comes into the world.
The pretty silver haired male's boots echoed a slow rhythm down the halls. He really should be happy for them. He is happy for them. But also... he feels sad.
Children were a blessing to have. Little bundles of endless joy. A joy he will never know. And as much as he doesn't like to think, he's envious of the two involved mortals.
Fujin stops in his tracks. He's probably walking a little too far from the room. And he'd rather not cause any alarm to anyone, to whomever catches him in this silent, maybe soothing liminal space of a hall.
The shine of the lights reflected off the light blue tiles. When Fujin turns back, he notices his reflection in the window. However, his quite admirable appearance isn't what he focused on.
Through the window, he saw a tiny little human bundled in a blanket!
The demigod steps closer to the window. The baby was clearly asleep comfortably. So small. So adorable!
Fujin notices more cribs with more babies nesting in each one. Do they all come here soon after they enter the world?
Fujin looked back at the one closest. Placing a hand on the window, he fantasized the newborn as his very own. He wishes he could cradle them. Wish to hold them and keep them safe.
All he could do was smile at the sleepy bean. "I know you'll grow into something great, little one." He whispers.
Silence rose in the ambiance more. Fujin hadn't walked back to the room. All he just wanted to do was stay put and observe the many new babies.
Though it seemed all were asleep, doing literally nothing but breathing correctly,  they make Fujin happy.
"Which one is yours?" A sudden voice spoke up behind and Fujin flinches up.
Just out of nowhere, a nurse comes up on him. A neat smile on her face, not covered my the mask resting on her chin. H/c slightly shown beneath the blue cap.
No footsteps or anything. Not that the Lord noticed.
"O-Ohh... Pardon me. None of these are mine." Fujin informs the lady. "I just wanted to watch them."
From your perspective, you watched this man stand here for nearly twenty minutes, looking at the children. It's quite late. Maybe 2 am. He looks troubled.
"Ah. Are you a visitor?"
Fujin nods quietly before looking back at the window. "My friends are about to have their first child. I thought it would be more appropriate to be at a distance."
You walk to his side and also observe the youngings. "I hear you. Do you have your own?"
"Truly, I wish I could." You could hear the sadness in his tone. The silent assumption you made was based on appearance. He's not a normal human, obviously. You didn't mind!
Earthrealm has crazy things. Maybe he has really important things to tend to than to get settled!
"I hear you. I wish I had mine." You tell him with the same smile.
Your words didn't quite make sense to him. Looking at you, he questions with the need of elaboration, "I'm sorry?"
It's quite a private story indeed, but you don't care. Everything eventually worked out for you.
"I got to hold my baby girl for five months."
His glowing eyes widened at what you were telling him, then sympathy was given off. "I'm sorry you had to endure such an experience. I can only imagine what many pains came with that."
"No need to be sorry for me. Yeah, it drastically changed me, but I'm happy to work here. Like you, I wish I could have my own; but I'm happy to help parents nurture their newborn infants."
Fujin smiles softly at such optimism. "That's a very graceful thought."
"Thank you. I always try."
Muffled crying took both of your attentions. A baby in the row nearest to the window has woken up. Their wails are definitely louder in the room.
"What's wrong with that one?" Fujin asks with concern.
"Could be it's not used to being out the womb. Or just hungry." You casually say.
Patting his shoulder softly, you start to move on now. You're still on the clock. "I best get back to work now. I'm pretty sure I'm the only free one on the unit."
"Very well, I admired speaking with you."
Before Fujin walks back to Sonya and Cage's delivery room, he watches you work gently with the infants.
Your endurance inspires him.
*Boooonnnnussss æeugh*
Fujin was still seated outside the room before he abruptly heard a loud scream, muffled by the walls.
His heart skipped a beat. Should he go in there to check up on all of them? Make sure Blade is okay. She's a string woman, but Fujin doesn't mind at all if he needs to use his God powers to heal.
Opening the door, was the actor walking out in tears. Fujin looks at him, concerned.
"She broke my hand!" Johnny's voice shakes as he showed off the impressively swollen hand.... that was him yelling??
Fujin just looks even more worried as Cage ran off to get his broken hand treated. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fujin would casually stare at newborns and be very fond.
I'd give him a kid fr😔

Simon Riley without his mask
Tumblr media
AO3
Stand up so you can sit down; take off your outer clothes; pull up a chair for you; kiss the back of your hand; do not raise voice at you; if you walk on the sidewalk, then stand by the road; make sure you feel comfortable when you go out; if you bend over to pick up something under the table, then cover the corner of the table with his hand; lay his head on your shoulder just because; make two cups of tea anyway; try to say when he feels uncomfortable (not just swallow it cuz he don't wanna bother you! mister it's-not-that-deep); talk with you when something is wrong; when you look good — say out loud that you look good; ask if you need some help and actually help you, massage your tired feet.
Yeah, he doesn't really know about the etiquette and other stuff, but he knows exactly how to cherish you, trying so hard to give you that normal life he knows you deserve, even though he's so dumb that he didn't really understand you do not need 'normal life', you're as battle-scarred as he is, you just need life with him. Civilian or not, you don't give a damn about it, maybe he didn't know how to use that god-awful melon spoon, but it's okay as long as he is happy, cuz the melon spoon never was so necessary. You just love watching him, so clumsy with small and delicate things, that you can't help but just stay silent and admire how he's trying to deal with that nappy for your tiny little newborn baby daughter, who literally can completely fit in two his palms.
He was big compared to normal guy, was huge compared to you, and now he's damn giant compared to your daughter.
"Fatherhood suits you," you said, looking at him from the threshold, and laughed when he literally shuddered. The man on purpose lowered his guard down, 'cause he felt himself safe with you. Both of you, now.
"The hell are you tolkin' about... Help me instead, I can't understand how this shit works.." grumpy, messy, baby powder on his cheek, brows furrowed. If Johnny saw him right now, he'd definitely shit his pants from how scary Simon looked at that poor nappy, like it, idk, killed his beloved puppy. But as how scary it was for everyone esle, as much it was funny for you; you couldn't resist your laugh coming out, trying to hide your face with your palm, when he looked at you as severely as physically possible.
And blushed.
"Shut up."
You smiled at him widely, coming closer: "I said nothing, baby." but that wasn't true. Technically, that wasn't a lie, too. You said a lot of things, but not with words. "You can't handle one diaper?"
"I didn't say I can't handle it, dammit," he groaned, focussing on swaddling the baby who couldn't stop giggling and twitching from side to side; you rested your elbow on his shoulder, and he theatrically sighed, looking at his daughter: "Rocket fuel in your veins..." and, stooping to kiss her on her belly, added: "Just like your mother."
"I don't get it, are you bullying her?" before he realized it, you pucked girl up. She giggled, sucking on her own petit fingers, moving her legs. "You're bullying my daughter, Simon?"
"Oh goodness, love..." he clicked, you cackled, holding baby closer and moving two steps away from him, "you wanna start a fight now?"
"I don't", but considering how you smiled and looked at your daughter's very pleased reaction, you obviously wanted this: "Do you?"
"I don't," he answered, "but if you're going to continue whatever you're doing, I'm-"
"You what?" and you moved the child in your arms accompanied by her contented laughter, so Simon could see it:
You sly thing.
He can't do with you anything when you're holding the baby.
"What, you swallowed your tongue, darling?" your footsteps were coming closer to the living room, and he followed at your heels, looking almost the same as on the military, about to scold one of his soldiers. "Love..." almost growled, making the baby laugh harder, clapping; the fluff on her head swayed when you moved left and right, skirting the furniture: "Love?" you repeated after him, looking directly into his eyes without a single blink, "Now I'm love?"
"You always were my love..."
"No, five seconds ago you were threatening me!" you smiled, moving your gaze to your daughter. "He was threatening your mama, sunshine, look at him!"
"No-o!" Simon exclaimed, holding out his hands to the little one, "Princess, don't listen to her! She's lying! She was bullying me!"
"Bullying you? How can I bully you? I'm a victim here!"
"You're not!"
"Of course I am, princess saw how you were telling me you're going to do something!-" laughter, quick steps, radio talking in the kitchen, child's giggle, Simon's sighs, and two grown-ass adults argument in which each of you tried to convince a three-month-old child which of you is really a victim.
Was that the life you were expecting from joining the military?
No.
That was the life that Simon Riley gave you without your request. He just was there, silently, very bad at any good feelings, not knowing what exactly to say or how to act in some situations, learning from you by just watching how you talked with everyone, and simply remembering small things. From small things about how to interact with people, who are not broken as fu-. Ahem. To small things about you, and one day he understood — you became his healing pill. Somehow, by doing literally nothing, only existing in the same universe as him, winking to him, talking to him — actually talking, not just having some nonsense chat about the weather or your job, but discussing with him, asking about his opinion, you became a person who was so damn comfortable to him, that he couldn't deny how he's attached to you anymore.
This man appeared in your life like a silent company, then your partner on missions, then your partner for life, then your husband, and then the father of your child.
And now you were testing his limits, 'cause you wanted so.
This girl in your hands — she was the third most precious woman in his life, after his mother and you, and you knew exactly what you were doing by teasing him, not letting him go closer to you, or take her from your hands.
"What? What? Wanna say you're not bullying me? Princess, look-"
"No, princess, don't. Look at your daddy, daddy loves you, daddy would never bully your mommy."
"Liar!"
And then once again: he sighs, you giggle, baby girl made her baby sound, and the three of you were whirled around the house, from room to room, until finally, he cornered you. Literally. You pressed yourself into the corner of the bedroom with your whole body, never stop smiling, but knowing for sure that this man would not leave it so easily. You blinked, he towered over you like a mountain, put his hand on the wall and you automatically bit your lower lip, chuckling: "Are we like... In some kind of third-rate young adult drama?"
"Give her to me. Now."
A hoarse, hot, deep voice sounded right in front of you. His blue eyes into yours, and you had to tilt your head to keep eye contact, but it was completely worth it.
"Or what?" you whispered; the little one's eye's shifted from you to her father, from him to you again, Simon leaned over to you, and before this whole situation started to get too spicy, you quickly gave him the child and came out from under his quite skillful confident kabe-don. Ah, but you remember times when he was too shy to kiss you... "You can have her," you said, looking innocent, watching him trying to handle girl as delicate as possible, hissing at your actions as if scolding because you simply cannot treat such tiny, fragile creatures like that.
You can break her!
He.
Scolding you.
For not being gentle.
He.
Holding her so, so gently, carefully, holding her head straight, because she didn't know how to do it yet, frowning at you, you, an irresponsible woman!
This behemoth of a man with such a little girl in his hands.
"She's already daddy's girl, isn't she?" You murmured. Simon put her on the changing pad, you followed him. "Try again," you said, when he took the open diaper.
He sucked air deep into his lungs and began to swaddle this little giggly monster.
Action after action, extreme care, total concentration, as if he was defusing a bomb, unblinking stare until the last details, and only when girl was laying there, completely swaddled, with a pacifier in her mouth, he exhaled, closing his eyes.
"Holy f-..."
"Good job! It was that hard, baby?" You chuckled, stroking his back, when he turned to you, hugging your waist softly. "No," he whispered, breathing in your scent, mixed with perfume and the smell of a hair conditioner, "I was trying not to hurt her. She's so tiny..."
Oh, that man drove you crazy.
The level of happiness in your blood exceeded all permissible norms, you pressed into him, cheek on his cheek for a second, and kissed his cheekbone, smiling like a fool.
Or it was just him?
Big protective fool, so scared to hurt his little daughter...
You love him like this: in your arms, mumbling about how afraid he is that one day he'll do something to her, due to miscalculated strength. You weren't afraid. You knew he simply won't let it happen.
"You wouldn't." You answered, gently running your fingers through his short blonde hair, "Wanna know why?"
Simon looked into your eyes, moving away a little, so you could see him properly: "Why?"
You smiled: "Because she's our daughter," and before he let himself relax, you added, grinning nastily: "If you'll ever try to hurt her, she'll kick your ass, like it's a fucking football, darling."
Well.
Maybe... Just maybe... Maybe he wasn't a liar...
Maybe you truly enjoyed bullying him, so he can "get angry" and finally shut you up with the most delicious kiss in the world.
Simon's lips pressed to yours, your hands over his hot red cheeks, because someone's still too easy to tease, his hands around your waist, just to be sure you're not going anywhere, your eyes closed so you can remember every moment, every note of his taste. And the softness, but the conference of his movements.
Simon Riley was the best example of the word "self-control".
You never saw an another man with such power over himself that he can hold the most fragile teacup tightly and not break it.
And he was afraid?
He?
Oh, you were planning to live a life beside him and for once and for all make him see how amazing he really was.
Yes, he doesn't have some fancy private university diploma, maybe he's not a philosophy Ph.D., but, god forgive me, was he less incredible because of it? Not even a little.
He doesn't know about a melon spoon, he doesn't really like all these luxurious restaurants, he can tell nothing about Gucci house, then fuck it, fuck it all, fuck the etiquette, fuck high table manners, fuck meticulous elegance, prim ideality — the way Simon kissed you, keep you close, the way he looked at you with his eyes go wild, the way he was sucking your scent, burying his face in your neck, after holding your common child, as if both of you were priceless treasures from the depths of the sea.
Squeezing you, carefully touching her chubby pink cheek with a pad of his finger, and slowly, lightly kissing the back of your hand, pressing her close while rocking.
Yeah, he wasn't a gentleman.
He didn't have a fantastic talent for anything, couldn't distinguish Manet from Monet, and mathematics wasn't one of his strengths.
But he had his stubbornness, willpower, desire, and love for work.
Simon Riley was a hard-worker.
And that's exactly what you love in him.
"We should..." you swallowed, licking your lower lip after that disastrous kiss he gave you, "We should go on a date..."
"Why so?" just his hoarse voice made you snuggle into him, hugging his neck so tightly, as if you wanted to kill him with your own hands — that's how much you loved him. But you did nothing.
Just breathing heavily, feeling him lift you by your hips, seating you on the windowsill in your bedroom. "Because," you murmured, smacking him on the lips, "I want you to eat molecular crap in your only black suit, and grumble that this berry foam is not a real food."
And when you laughed, already hearing his old man's grumbling, his huge hands grabbed your waist again, squeezing tightly, as if purposely ignoring your mouth-watering sides.
You told Simon last morning that even though it's been three months since you gave birth, your pelvis still hurts sometimes —
Oh.
What a gentle man he was...
Haha.

Episode 1
Fuck it, I'm gonna do it anyway. Here's all the notes I took when watching episode 1 of the godawful fallout tv show. enjoy. I'm gonna run through this with notes I made while I watched the show so formatting might be kinda weird, I haven't done anything like this before so bare with me. I will try to explain things as if you the reader have not seen the show. This is gonna be very long and heavy on the hate and the spoilers.
Content warnings:
rape
incest
gif of the fight scene violence
self harming
Things I liked:
Vault Dwellers reusing the same wedding dress and everyone who'd worn it writing their names on the inside. that's sweet
"don't lose your head" vault poster during a firefight
Johnny Cash
I like Brotherhood Clerics but they totally fucked up the ranking system
The vault dwellers just painting over the blood on the walls
Horses are canon now
Goofy wasteland urban legends like "a feral ghoul does not abide a chicken"
That's literally it. Now it's time for everything else. I'll break it down into character bits since that's what the show does
Cooper
So Cooper Cowboy ghoul man is divorced and he's at this birthday party in I'm guessing Hollywood overlooking LA. It's a beautiful sunny day :) Bare in mind that in this scene the nukes drop so Bethesda has already fucked their own lore of the nukes dropping at 9:40am in Boston would mean that it should be 6:40am in California. Sunrise in California in October is 7am, btw. So already we're fucked. Real "design documents are a waste of time" behaviour on display here.
Anyway, nuke goes off. Now let me ask you something. What's one of the most infamous things about nuclear bombs? The flash, right? A nuclear explosion is bright enough to blind a person. Fallout 4 understood this, at least a little, where the flash of light from the bomb would fill your screen even if you weren't facing it, which is how nukes work. Closing your eyes in the face of a nuke would be pointless because the light would pass through your eyelids. There's even reports of people who held up their hands to shield the light and could see THEIR BONES THROUGH THEIR HANDS. That's how bright they are. They are horrifying weapons of mass destruction.
The nuke that hits LA is not a nuke, the flash of light on Janey's face (cooper's kid and the ONE SINGLE PERSON who notices a NUCLEAR FUCKING BOMB) is more akin to a camera flash. again. she is the only fucking person who notices a nuclear bomb go off, everyone else at the party is distracted by a TV of all things.
Tumblr media
In the time between the ""flash"" of the bomb here's everything that happens before Cooper and co feel the shockwave
Janey notices the pathetic flash and looks up.
She holds up her thumb in the "vault boy" way
Cooper comes out of the house and walks over to Janey
He crouches down beside her and says some bullshit along the lines of "i got some cake for my favourite cowgirl"
Janey says "was it your thumb or my thumb?"
Cooper looks towards the source of the nuke and slowly stands up, watching it for a moment
He says "that's just a fire janey" as the smoke unfurls into a very obvious mushroom cloud
He realises that it was not. just a fire
then they get hit by a shockwave
This takes almost a full minute and none of the segments is supposed to be slow motion. Listen I know that light moves faster than sound and heat but come on. It's way too slow and also. dead fucking silent. also the shockwave comes before the mushroom cloud but who cares.
Anyway cooper gets on a horse with the girl and rides off down the road in the direction of LA. good job dude.
I've already read up about yknow who it was who wanted the nukes fired and I know that it was Barb who wanted the nukes dropped on America for?? vault tec profit??? so uh. why did she let Janey go to a birthday party with Cooper?
Lucy
x3 Incest jokes may not seem like a lot but it was 3 too many for me. I hate the "good karma" noise that played when Lucy got arranged married. I said I liked the vault poster of "don't lose your head" but I hate the way Lucy keeps getting her inspiration from Vault Boy I'm sorry but its annoying and dumb to me. Interconnected vaults in LA is also. dumb. you're telling me The Master didn't notice these fucking things? you're kidding. Look at it, it's not even hidden in a cave or anything its just out in the open.
Tumblr media
Way to retroactively make the Master look like a moron, though I know they do this to Mr House later on. ugh.
Her intro makes it sound like she's supposed to have Tagged Skills in repair, speech and science but she displays none of this in the later episodes I have seen, in fact her speech seems like utter dogshit so what was the point in introducing her in a "game protag" way if none of that was gonna get used later?
Anyway, lets get onto the raiders. If you know me, you know I love raiders. They're a cool and interesting critique of individualism and "might makes right" and also aesthetically just kind of fuck.
Now, knowing what I know about Moldaver and her being the current ?leader of the NCR remnants, that implies that the people she has led into Vault 33 are former NCR citizens or soldiers, right? right?
So the ""fall of shady sands"" according to the show is 2277 and yeah sure okay that's during new vegas' time and sure okay right todd howard promised that this didn't de-canonise fallout new vegas. however. it's 2296 meaning it's been 19 years since Shady Sand's.......decline. and 15 years since New Vegas where we last saw the NCR. And i know that the NCR aren't exactly the good guys To suggest that in less than 20 years the citizens of shady sands have been reduced to Bethesda-style raiders who:
Are unable to use utensils such as knives and forks
Can't grow crops
Don't know how to use cups
Will rape a woman, wipe his dick on a curtain, and then try to murder said woman
Shoveling fistfuls of cake into their mouth during a firefight
Threatening a pregnant woman
In another episode one of these guys is interrogated/interviews and shows their asshole to the guy talking to him.
is fucking ludicrous
Anyway Monty looks like Jerma
Tumblr media
RIP
Anywayyyy how come only Lucy's pipboy picked up on the radiation from these outsiders huh? everyone else was wearing a pipboy during the wedding, they sat next to each other, those geigar counters would have been going off. what? they had them on silent out of respect of a good Christian wedding? if you try to convince me that's the explanation I will eat your liver. Bethesda raider style
anyway no.2 girlypop (lucy) straight up pulls a knife out of her wound which is medical petpeeve no.9394328 for me but then its immediately resolved by a stimpak. I hate how stimpaks in the show are used exactly how they are in the game. I was under the impression that it was a video game mechanic and not how it actually worked in the narrative. What's next? Jet gives me extra action points or some shit? I'm so tired
the fight scene sucked. the choreography of the raider guy shooting a vault dweller through the head of another vault dweller just kind of looked like shit and seemed impractical, clearly just there to be like WOAH THATS COOL it wasn't cool it looked clunky and weird. do not fucking tell me that fallout is supposed to be clunky and weird I will kill you.
Tumblr media
the doors cutting the raider in half was also dumb since its been routinely established that the dull and ominous "thunk. thunk. thunk" heard deep in the bowels of a vault is a door that's trying to close but there's something stuck under it, if they could just slice a whole man in half then they could cut through a table or skeleton in game. Also irl I'm a health and safety officer and that moment made my toes curl. lol
It jumps from Lucy to Max and then back to lucy but I'm just gonna continue talking about her shit here. quick fire round because I've been yapping too long already
Her little brother looks way too old to be acting like a teenager this much.
Chet (Lucy's cousin and ex boyfriend. gross) wants to come with her thank god he doesn't
why doesn't she give a shit about the sky
Why doesn't she give a shit about the ocean
Maximus
"stupid blimp is back" is at the very top of my notes, lol. anyway I still don't understand where they got this thing from
Latrines made out of stacks of tires is so dumb. like I cant even explain how dumb that is. surely rubber has better use for that. surely. just shit in a hole in the ground like everyone else please for the love of god
I know the twist with Daine and let it be said, having your first on screen transgender character cut themselves with razors to get out of the military is not, in fact, Bethesda trying to be on the side of transgender people, it is in fact them making fun of us, okay? do we understand?
hiding baby max is a fridge made me so angry I blacked out. do not remind me of "kid in a fridge" ever again.
Anyway Bethesda finds it so difficult to keep the BOS consistent to the point that they are all so different from each other with little to no explanation as to why they've changed so much. In fact it feels like to me that at some point between fallout 3 and fallout 4 Bethesda has totally mixed up the BOS and the Enclave, since now the BOS hate ghouls for no reason and want to colonise the wasteland. This is just that again. Once more, no design doc behaviour.
Quotes from the BOS i think suck ass
"Duty of the Brotherhood of Steel is to secure the wasteland"
"Flesh is weak by steel endures"
"Violence is a tool we use it to bring order to the wasteland"
When Max is getting interrogated for being a suspect for cutting Daine with razors, mentions "send me to Eden or wherever" and it confused me so much. The only Eden I knew about was John Henry Eden from Fallout 3. Turns out I think what they're trying to reference is New Eden a BOS base from. Fallout Brotherhood of Steel 2?? of all fucking things?? really strange I can't imagine what else he could possibly be referencing though. This is literally just thrown in for the loreheads and I hate it.
Anyway after being a suspect for cutting Daine with razors and also failing his classes Max gets a promotion! this is not explained. They also brand him which people a lot smarter than me have discussed at length about why branding a black guy on screen in your fallout show is a bad idea. Read it here.
I don't really understand why the BOS all do shit in latin now, I know some of them had latin names in fo1 but IIRC Frank Horrigan of the Enclave was the only person in the og games who spoke latin. it feels like Bethesda wanting to capture the interest of people who liked the Legion. maybe that's a reach but given how much right wing propaganda is in the coming episodes I wouldn't put it past them.
Cooper again
I am not calling this idiot The Ghoul that's fucking dumb. what like he's the only one? ever? dumb. whats up with him being buried huh? did Todd not want to tell Nolan that ghouls arent actually zombies and arent actually undead? that just wanted him to jump out a coffin because oooh spooky zombie. honestly just kill me.
My notes: "Don't tell me the ghoul is in that grave I can't take it"
this guy gets dug up once a year and gets pieces of him cut off and put back?? why? for what purpose? how is he down there without eating or drinking? is it a kid in a fridge moment where ghouls don't need to eat or drink, well he drinks a whole lot of water in episode 3 so that's afucking lie. get real. the glowing IV? what is that??
the yodelling is really gonna piss me off, isn't it.
Not him ending the episode on the same quote he said to his daughter. whatever.
Rating: 3/10

𝐈 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐀 𝐁𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐃!| | Female! doctor reader x Soap Mactavish
Summary: Soap dislocated his shoulder on a night out and his doctor just so happens to be the most beautiful girl he’s ever seen.
A/N: I am in know way shape or form a doctor 😭 I’ve just watched a lot of bondi rescue.
Task force 141 were serious, careful and calculated… when they were on the battle field.
When they weren’t it was a totally different story.
God knows how but one drink lead to another, which then lead to Soap dancing on top a table to lady Gaga and despite the large crowd around him, no one decided to try and catch him when he fell off of it.
‘You cunts! Why didn’t you catch me?’ He moaned clutching his dislocated shoulder as they drove to the hospital.
‘Johnny this is the consequences of your own actions mate. It was my duty to let you fall.’ Ghost said.
The car went silent untill Gaz piped up, ‘Still don’t get why I cant just put it back into place.’
‘NO!’
~~~
Whilst they waited in the waiting room, Price made sure to loudly voice his negative opinions the whole time. ‘One of my best! One of my fucking best! Breaks his arm, dancing on a table!’
‘I actually dislocated it captain.’ Soap said with an oblivious smile.
Price glared at him, ‘You fancy dislocating the other one Mactavish?’ That shut Johnny up.
‘John Mactavish.’ A sweet voice called.
The four whipped their heads around curious to see who the voice belonged to and they weren’t disappointed. The doctor noticed the men looking at her and assumed one of the men were John. She couldn’t help but feel slightly intimidated by the group, I mean they were all at least six foot or over and they all clearly worked out but she had a job to do and she’d seen scarier things at the hospital.
‘If you’d all like to come through.’ She finished, beckoning them through the hallway whilst tucking a clipboard under her arm.
‘Fuck me.’ Gaz whispered as he looked at the doctor walking away. ‘She’s a sort.’
Soap was still staring at the doctor too stunned and embarrassed to speak and Ghost just let out a low whistle agreeing with Gaz.
Price slapped his arm, ‘Behave lads.’
When the men caught up with the doctor she politely asked Soap to sit on the bed so she could look. Soap had now realised that although his long sleeve top kept him warm it was not helpful In this current situation. ‘I’m sorry to invade your privacy but can you take your shirt off so I can properly look.’
‘That’s alright lass.’ He smiled he used his good arm to slowly pull one arm out of the shirt and slightly struggled to get the other. So she helped pulling the rest of his shirt off.
Gaz had a shit eating grin on his face and Ghost looked at soap smirking- which made Soap mouth a very polite ‘fuck off’ to the two.
‘I’m going to give you an anaesthetic called penthrox it’s a pain reliving drug, but it’s nicknamed the green whistle you literally breathe it in and swallow how you would smoke a cigarette. It will make you feel… high.’
‘That sounds quite fun actually.’ Soap replied willingly taking the green whistle and breathing it in
‘Well I assume you are a lot of fun, you know dancing on top of a table to lady Gaga.’
The woman replied smirking as she made a few notes on her clipboard. Soap blushed slightly and turned to his friends ‘Who grassed?’
‘Soap mate the bloke at reception asked what happened it was too great not to share.’ Ghost said from a corner in the room
He rolled his eyes and suddenly felt very calm and giggly. Fucking hell that kicked in quick
‘That will ease the pain but you can still hold a friends hand if you want.’ She said smiling. ‘I’m not trying to take the piss, if you want to no one’s gonna judge if you’re in pain.’
The green whistle had completely taken over soaps body and he was just saying whatever came to mind. ‘Yeah fuck it! Ghost get that arse over here.’
Ghost sighed as he slowly walked over to Johnny, holding his arm out for soap to grab.
‘Ghost.’ Soap asked in an attempted whisper but really he was just talking normally.
‘What.’ Ghost replied getting more annoyed by the second.
‘I think the doctor is really hot, but don’t say anything.’
The doctor smiled and laughed as she felt his shoulder trying to find the joint.
‘Johnny I think she knows mate.’
‘Did you tell her you little prick.’
‘Johnny just shut up.’
‘I don’t think you’ll find me hot after this.’ she said after grabbing his arm insinuating that it would hurt.
‘You ready?’ She asked
‘Yes ma’am.’
‘Okay great.’ She moved his arm up and Soap made sure to let the squad know how much it hurt.
‘Ah fuck me! I’m never listening to lady Gaga again.’
They all snickered as the man shouted.
The doctor found the right position and quickly moved his arm hearing a distinct click indicating it had popped back to place.
‘Oh that felt like an orgasm.’
‘Shut the fuck up Soap.’ Price sighed thinking about this poor doctor who was probably working a 12 hour shift and having to deal with a bunch of idiots.
Soap stared at the doctor, as she began to wrap his shoulder, trying to reach for his wallet - with his good arm.
‘Let me pay you.’
‘You don’t have to pay me darling.’
‘Oh stop it i want to.’
‘No you literally don’t have to healthcare is free.’
‘Oh yeah! Haha well done to the nhs.’
She rolled her eyes laughing. The doctor finished wrapping his arm and Johnny couldn’t take his eyes off of her,
‘You’re so beautiful.’
‘You aren’t so bad either.’ She replied looking back to him with a smile. The woman gave him his shirt back.
‘It takes 12-16 weeks to properly heal a dislocated shoulder but the pain should subside in a few days if it lasts any longer call your doctor and they can prescribe you some medication.’
Johnny was completely out of it and the rest took the note from the doctor. They all dragged soap out of the room much to his dismay. ‘No I need to thank her for her service to the nhs!’
‘How long does the green whistle last?’ Gaz asked whilst the other two wrestled soap.
‘An hour and he’s had it for 25 minutes you’ve got 35 left.’
‘Fuck.’
~~~
The next morning Soap woke up with two notes next to his bedside table, a glass of water and a pack of aspirin.
To soap, You owe us a pint. -Ghost, Price and Gaz.
He smiled and read the other note realising it was a list of things to do from the very hot doctor yesterday. Oh he definitely fucked up any chance he had;
So he thought.
Also I think you’re pretty hot too. Why don’t we go out so you can thank me for my service to the nhs? ********** call me!
No fucking way.

the year is 2024, sam larusso has begged her father to go to coachella with her friends (moon, aisha, demitri, robby and miguel but somehow tory, hawk and literally have of eagle fang area have managed to invite themselves to this event). the problem is that daniel is a little bit paranoid since the whole « terry silver tried to kill your whole family » thing, meaning he agrees to it but only if he can come with another responsible adult to chaperone all of these kids. (he’s been so stressed lately. so down. he can’t sleep well and he only feels at peace doing karate… amanda says it’s not healthy. he doesn’t see how to get out of his own head if it’s not doing crazy karate moves with johnny and chozen) unfortunately for him, all the responsible adults are busy; amanda is working, chozen has mysteriously disappeared to go to a baking contest which… since when can chozen make perfect italian meringues??? oh and even louie has a thing that day (it’s a date, cus, but she’s smoooking! i can’t miss it, sorry, or she’ll figure out she’s way out of my league.) which is how daniel finds himself driving a minivan full of teenagers with johnny lawrence in the passenger seat.
when they get there, the kids immediately go and run around, losing themselves between booths of extremely expensive gimmicky food and stages of alternative artists performing to LA rich kids who are all on ket.
daniel and johnny find themselves alone, at one of the biggest festivals of the country, being the oldest guys around and having no idea what to do which is about when johnny drags them both to a booth for beer ("larusso, i refuse to pay 12$ for a peach flavored beer, that’s fucking insane." "then get a water, johnny, i don’t know." "a WATER? to a festival? what are we? wimps? give me that peach nightmare.") about two hours in (and at least 10 beers each which is really gonna hurt daniel’s wallet come tomorrow), daniel sees sam under a tent, getting closer to a stage and daniel follows, of course, because he wants to make sure his daughter is alright… which really comes to a surprise when a redhead singer comes on stage and daniel watches sam turn slowly but surely to tory on her right and wrap a hand around her arm to make her lean down and… oh, that is very much a kiss.
uh.
and it would already be quite weird but now the music is so loud and daniel’s gaze turns to the stage and it all gets stuck in his head; is he happy? waking up in the middle of the night with his head in his hands? he turns to johnny and really, is this a i told you so? is he happier fighting with johnny than at peace with his wife?
johnny, unaware to daniel’s turmoil, slightly tipsy, balancing bert on his shoulders does the most insane, evil thing he could do to daniel at that point; he smiles slightly.
it’s just a hint of teeth in the shape of a crescent moon, just a flash of white for not even a second but daniel feels run through.
he watches tory and sam hold hands in front of the stage, he watches all these young people celebrate who they are and feels both extremely alone and finally understood.

https://www.tumblr.com/ohbo-ohno/729766511286370304/oh-and-another-thought-on-johnny-training-his?source=share
Had this one last thought:
For the next few days after, Johnny stays close by Simon acting as his guard dog, glaring at their puppy whenever she gets close, giving off warning growls to behave.
He's still a bit angry with her, always watching her every move. And she stays hunched over, submissively avoiding eye contact. She's learning. Slowly, but she's learning.
Simon watches with amusement, a hand lightly scratching Johnny's head every time he tenses up when their puppy hesitantly gets closer. He trusts Johnny to hold himself back unless he needs to teach her a lesson again.
And their poor puppy just wants Johnny to be nice again because nice Johnny wasn't scary like mad dog Johnny is. So for the first time ever, she willingly gets on all fours and slowly crawls to where they sit on the couch, Johnny literally growling at her as a warning, and rolls around onto her back, whining with her belly exposed and paws up, just like she was taught to show that she knows her place.
It softens them and gets her praises. Simon pets her belly and Johnny eases up on how strict he's been for the past couple of days.
- 🥍
oh im :(((( going fucking insane actually
i love how literal the petplay is here. not just nicknames and crawling around, but fully expecting actual dog behavior. very hot tbh (i am a normal person with normal thoughts)
love the image of her being so so scared of johnny :( simon is nice and normal to her but simon's "nice and normal" isn't nearly as comforting as johnny's, and johnny isn't being nice and normal. he's growling and biting at her, doesn't let her get anywhere near ghost :( she sits on the little dog bed they got for her and pouts, looks all pathetic and sad on her own in the corner. simon just pets a hand through johnny's hair, ignores her little sniffles.
she hadn't realized how different things would be with johnny being actively mean
usually she and johnny eat dinner at the same time, but he doesn't let her get close to him that night :( she tries to go up to her bowl and eat and he growls until she backs off, so she eats cold food without johnny by her side (he always makes it easier - she doesn't feel so alone and sometimes she feels almost hidden by him) and it makes the whole process so much more difficult. she works up the nerve to try and beg for ghost to come closer, but johnny growls at her again and ghost just laughs, goes back to the couch after putting his plate in the sink :(
johnny and simon go to bed without her, johnny growling and snarling when she tries to follow behind him. johnny's up in bed when she eventually follows, and the doors to both of their crates are open. she works up the nerve to get near the bed, keeps herself real low to the ground and only slows instead of stopping when johnny growls down at her
she flips herself onto her back with a whine, squeezes her eyes shut so tight that she cries a little (she feels so open and vulnerable and humiliated and scared) and begs a little, tries to look as submissive as possible. she doesn't open her eyes even when johnny goes silent, too scared of another punishment like the last
but they don't do that. simon scoops her up beneath her arms, laughs a little at her yelp and the way she curls up into a little ball in surprise. he drops her onto his lap, gives her a few soft pets when she just sits there all stiff and stares at johnny with wide-eyes. johnny would be a little pouty about it, but he'd flop himself on top of her too, sandwich her between himself and ghost
it takes a while for her to feel comfortable again, even when both simon and johnny are back to their nice and normal attitudes. but she acts just like a puppy, so ghost and soap know they've made good progress with her <3

Yandere Jimmy and Gary with a Male!Teen parent!greaser!Reader
Summary:Jimmy and Gary fall in love with the same boy aka Y/N L/N the teenage parent greaser but they aren’t willing to share so easy (Headcanons and a one shots)
TW/CW:Yandere behavior,Gary being a hypocrite,unhealthy behavior, unhealthy relationship,abusive behavior,abusive relationship,mentions of fights,Reader’s baby mama is unknown but it’s mentioned that their in great terms,Reader’s daughter is named Tallulah and if your asking where I got it from it’s from QMSP bc I’ve seen edits and honestly love the name!,Johnny and Reader’s relationship is on the fence with platonic and romantic behavior but never specified what it is(Based off of my friends treating me as their kid and pretending to be a couple),Gary himself,Gary’s sadistic behavior,Gary wanting to own you,VERY OCC CHARACTERS BC JOHNNY IN THE GAME CARES MOSTLY FOR LOLA BUT IN THIS HES VERY POSSESSIVE OF READER!,if I need to add more please do tell me
A/N:Might make this a series
Tumblr media
Jimmy hopkins
-now at first he thought you were an asshole because everyone is at that school but you were actually pretty nice!
-He met you when your daughter Tallulah got lost in the circus because she followed a butterfly,he saw you panicking and looking everywhere for her very worried
- “TALLULAH BABY!” “DADDY!” Jimmy watched as Tallulah ran towards you crying as you picked her up and hug her very tight. He knows you from school,you hang with the greasers and look the part to but if he was honest you look pretty handsome like that especially when you cry. “t-thank you…Jimmy was it? Thank you for finding my baby..” “No problem man but how did you lose your daughter?” “Because I saw a butterfly and walked away from daddy” “Yeah I noticed not to long after because you were to quite but here Jim,ya helped a lot” You pulled out a 30 and gave it to him as a way to show you care. “Thanks…” “See ya soon and or later Jim!” “Bye bye nice man!” Tallulah waved goodbye and smiled as you two went home maybe
-You two started hanging out more often to the point Tallulah calls him Uncle Jimmy! He truly does love the way your nice. He notices your never in your dorm,when he ask he gets “Well…gotta have my girl with me at all times,why ya think I get to leave early? They let me check on my baby!” That’s when he learnt the teachers babysit her on their off periods expect Edna…last time Tallulah literally tried to carve out her skin
-He hates how Johnny or the others are so close to you and how Tallulah calls Johnny ‘Dada’ turns out Johnny’s been your childhood best friend and he is your support but also babysitter. Johnny has been closer to you causing him to be ‘Dada’
-He is very willing to murder and attack people. He does do ‘warnings’ but if they keep trying to get with you he isn’t afraid to show that your his man. Johnny he hasn’t done yet because your almost ALWAYS with him,if your asking why he wants to attack Johnny is because no one is sure if you two are dating with the way y’all act. Examples When Johnny thinks no one is paying attention he kisses your cheek,y’all hold hands,sometimes you two use pet names,Johnny is OVERPROTECTIVE and POSSESSIVE of you like he gets upset when someone is flirting with you!,You often lean on his as you take a nap,He’s always at your house,Tallulah calling you ‘Daddy’ and him ‘dada’ as you two skip school for her school and those are just a FEW!
-He is possessive,not easily jealous,but very very overprotective of you.
Gary smith
-THIS MOTHER FUCKER! Everyone hates him and he hates everyone we know that but when he felt some feelings he didn’t know towards you he HATED you more!
-Totally makes fun of you for being a single teen parent,knocking a girl up and she didn’t stay with you even though countless times you’ve told everyone it was a drunk thing and that you two are actually close,your style,the way you talk,hell one time he made fun of Tallulah’s R’s and you went ham on him. No one has seen you this angry and they don’t want to after you literally made him go to the hospital.
-After that he wanted you,to own you,to put you in your fucking place! How dare you humiliate him!? He’ll show you that he’s better!
-Notices and picks at every little thing when someone tries to date or flirt with you because your his! You should already know this!
-Tallulah doesn’t like him because he scares her. He hates her because she bit him to the point he bled but he knows you love her so he’ll put up with her
-No warnings just attacks,no one will think it’s out of pocket for Gary well not a lot but sorta. He just verbally attacks Johnny because he know if he tried anything physically you’d beat him shitless once again
When they confront each other
Jimmy isn’t stupid actually he’s pretty damn smart so when he notices Gary acting the way he does with anyone else he knows he’s not alone with the obsession. “Jimmy buddy! Since we’re such good friends I’m just gonna give you this one little warning….STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM Y/N!” Jimmy got closer to Gary wanting to fight him but he’s only given a few warnings. “And what if I don’t?” Gary grabbed Jimmy’s collar trying not to punch his past errand boy. As soon as Jimmy said that a fight ensued. “BOYS CUT IT OUT!” “GOD DAMN IT JIMMY” the teachers pulled off Gary while Jimmy as being held by you. Gary hated how he was so close to you! They both agreed that they’ll fight for your love.

headcanons for you my friend 🤝
- the kombat kids call the adults The Olds
-cassie and jacqui aren’t allowed to do mission debriefs anymore bc they can’t look at each other without cackling, very much “me and bestie trying to hold it together in a serious situation.” they were delirious and wheezing on the floor a couple of times after some especially long assignments
-kuai liang discovered he has a thing for men in western wear. hanzo teased him about it after an encounter with erron black
-frost has become fiercely protective of takeda in her own way, tho would never admit it. takeda thinks it’s endearing and says she’s like a guard chihuahua
-kung jin and frost had beef for a while purely based on vibes but now have a “i can throw hands with you but no one else can or they die” type of relationship
-kung jin calls jacqui’s dad a dilf often among other things and she wants to tear her head open every time
-jade was kitana’s first kiss
-kung lao and liu kang were indeed also each other’s first kiss
-cassie is a skilled driver but she drives like she’s in the fast and the furious and it makes all of her passengers fear for their lives
I love these so much
The only adult who knows about The Olds being their nickname is Kung Lao, who all the kombat kids agree is basically one of them
Cassie and Frost aren't allowed to debrief either, nor are Jacqui and Takeda, because it always devolves into flirting. As a result, Kung Jin is the one usually responsible for handling debrief and he Hates it
Hanzo's next Halloween costume was a cowboy and it was meant as a way of subtly poking fun at Kuai Liang but it ended up with the cryomancer (NSFW ALERT) riding him into the mattress until they literally fucked themselves into exhaustion
Frost rolls her eyes at the chihuahua nickname and calls Takeda a golden retriever bc he's pretty and, as far as she's concerned, dumb (he isn't she's just being mean)
Kung Jin and Frost never use each other's names to the point where ppl wonder if they even know each other's names, they only call each other insults ("Bitchboy" "Canadian Goose")
Kung Jin calls Jax a dilf whenever he wants to annoy her or get her to leave him alone, he does the same with Cassie
Jade and Kitana had a whole romance for a while that ended a couple years before the tournament when they realized they were better off as friends. Living in Shao Kahn's court was not conducive to a healthy relationship even though they tried (they weren't toxic or anything, just not in a place to be committed to and vulnerable with another person and it caused a lot of conflict.)
Kung Lao and Liu Kang, however, were childhood sweethearts and Liu Kang was very anguished over developing feelings for kitana as well bc he didn't want to have to choose between the people he loved. They all talked it through and came to an arrangement that suited them and now Kitana and Kung Lao share a boyfriend.
Cassie drives like Parker from leverage (if you haven't seen that show I do Highly recommend it, it's modern day Robin Hood but with nutjobs and an ot3 that is not canon but also not contradicted by canon) so she's not allowed to drive unless the apocalypse is nigh and they need to get from point A to point B faster than god himself. Frost is the only person who enjoys it when Cassie drives while Johnny once nearly shit himself.

Tumblr media
The rest of the day went on without anymore incidents. You literally tried to avoid Soap and Ghost, not being fond of furthermore discussions or chats. After the rookies were dismissed, you simply asked Price for any other things to accomplish, but he denied the request. Therefore, you went off as fast as possible before the other Seargent could get a grip of you. You decided to make a spontaneous visit at the shooting range. Pulling the trigger with the rest of temper your heart hold, until your stomach told you about some other essential needs.
Afterwards you went quite early to get some dinner, just before you took a cold shower. There you also met the girl next door; her name was Beth. She was way to open, and the bruises at her neck just confirmed a theory about her. It was still pretty chill outside, so you decided to take a book and headed to the patio. The breeze of the wind tangling in your hair, what was still braided together, just a bit looser than usual. Your hair was still a bit dump from the shower, but you didn’t mind.
A cup of tea besides you and the book in your hands. This was kind of therapeutic, shutting your mind blank for a few minutes. A few minutes for your peace of mind. You didn’t know how long you were seated here. From time to time there were other soldiers or recruits passing by, greeting you politely but leaving you alone. Just when it the sun started to set you decided to have your usual evening smoke, before heading in back to your room again.
You put your bookmark in between the pages you stopped. It was a thin piece of cardboard, onto it a colorful drawing of thick grey clouds, just beneath you could find some tiny raindrops, falling down onto a trunk. On top of the wooden piece were placed a black pigeon, a grey dog who would wear a little golden crown. Your thumb brushed carefully over the paper, hardly scared that it would get destroyed if you would touch it too harsh. A lump formed in the back of your throat while you closed the book and put it aside.
Pulling out the box of cigarettes you kept close to you all the time. Opening the box, pulling out the lighter of the box and a fag. You ignited the drug between your fingers and inhaled deeply. Eying the little metallic device in your hand, which had two koi engraved on to it which danced delightful in a circle before pushing it back into the box and back into the pocket you originally found it. You leaned further into the backrest, head falling back while you exhaled a thick cloud of smoke. Let yourself get once more entangled in your own thoughts, but for once you allowed yourself to. Closing you eyes to actually think back to the happy memories replaying.
In the meantime, Soap and Gaz were seated at the canteen, eating their burgers. They tasted like you would never want one ever again, but it was still a welcomed change of food choices. “You’re messing with me!”, Kyle cried out and Soap signaled him to keep his voice low. “Never! I told you, just like that and she was on top of him.”, Johnny explained all over excited again. He grabbed the glass of juice in front of him. “Why didn’t you take a picture?!”, his friend asked him with a hint of disbelief still laying in his voice. “An donas dubh!” [By the devil!] – “English, MacTavish.” – “God dammit, I’m such a roaster. I didn’t think of it!”, Gaz only laughed and ate up to his burger.
“She really stirring up on us, huh?” Johnny let out a chuckle. “True though. I think she’ll just need a bit time to warm up with us. Bonnie is lovely. Just doubting that Lt will…”, his voice a bit falling in the end but remaining as soft as possible. “Find quite a liking in her already? Don't fall for her, mate.”, Gaz teased before going on, “Look, he needed quite some time with us too and he still do, though. Everything will turn out great. Price just knows us too well, for her not to fit in.”, the Brit looking with hopeful eyes at his comrade and Johnny only smiled slightly. “I really hope so.” – “So, I believe we shouldn’t tease Simon about it, huh?”, Gaz stated while pushing the empty plate a bit further on to the table to make space for his arms too lean on. “Defiently not. Even if it’s tempting.” – “Let me guess, your blood was running cold again.” – “Aye, he really dinnea think it’s funny at all.” The two laughed wholehearted before returning their empty dishes and started walking out of the canteen.
Your hand was still clinging around the back of the leathery book from earlier. The taste of the cigarette long forgotten you made your way back to your barrack. Unfortunately, you had to cross ways with the common room, to get back to your own chambers. There were little prayers running through your head, that maybe nobody would be in there, so you could easily spend the rest of the evening alone. To your disgrace they were all seated around. Price placed in a comfy looking armchair holding to a book himself, Gaz all stretched out on a couch scrolling through his phone while chatting with Soap, Ghost simply being present with Soap sitting beside him on the other couch. The Scotsman immediately took notice of your figure and waved you over with a pleasant smile. "Skadi, come sit with us."
Price turned around and gave you his soft smile, an invitation to join them. You really wished to just vanish immediately, but Gaz already shuffled on the couch to make room for you to sit. He patted the place next to him with a smile on his lips. "We won't bite.", he added before you could even deny. With a sigh you entered the room and took the place next to him. "Even if we would, you knew how to handle us. Right, Lieutenant.", Gaz added in a teasing tone what only earned him an annoyed groan from Ghost. Yes Soap warned him before, but that could not stop him from at least a little friendly teasing. Would hurt nobody, right? "What are ya reading?", Soap asked to change the subject abruptly. You bet they talked about it. Of course, they talked about it. You eyes slightly lingering on the stern man, sitting with his arms crossed across from you, before turning your attention back to the Scot.
You held out the book and earned a surprised look from Gaz. "Horror novels?" - "Yeah, I like them.", your tone was soft but still distant. Price looked at the cover as Soap took the book out of your hands and eying the cover. "I dinnea like that genre." The Scot said while handing you the book back. "Cause you're a scared little lad." Gaz teased while putting his phone away. "Nae! We have seen enough horror, eh.", he exclaimed while you were brushing your thumb over the cover yourself, "That's kinda the point.", you started and let your glance wander over to the man across from you, "it's nearly comical what people see as horrifying stories when I think about every bloody hell we walked through."
A little sting in your chest. Completely unintentionally you used the term we, not I. Of course, you assumed that it because everyone of you would have seen things you rather like to erase from your memories, but still, you couldn't speak for them. You didn’t know them. You noticed as you investigated the face from the men across of you. Ghost kept his stern expression, but you could've sworn his brows moved again. It would really take you some time till you could read him properly. Another challenge you gladly accepted. Maybe he was still angry at you. "Makes sense.", Price stated quiet, looking up from his book.
Soap only looked at you with the same expression you saw earlier when you pinned his - well now also your - Lieutenant down the mat. Your brows raised at him. "Bloody hell, stop looking at me so gobsmacked!", you exhaled your accent a bit thicker than usual and with ending your sentence you could only see that his eyes widened even more. Gaz couldn't suppress a laugh and placed his hand on his chest while leaning further into the couch. Price chuckled low and you thought that even Ghost shoulders loosen even the tiniest bit.
"Yer are a Brit?!", Soap exhaled still in shock. You blinked in confusion and Gaz laughter only rise. "What did you thought I am?", you asked him a bit amused about the whole situation. "I dinnea, but not expecting you to be one of them.", he gestured with his hands rushed over the other people in the room in a circular movement. "Especially when you understood me quite well, all day." He added still in disbelief. "He's only mad that the first person that doesn’t insult him for his Scottish is just another Brit.", Gaz breathed out between his laughs. "I told ya, I'm good with languages, Soap.", you stated with a soft smile on your lips. This whole thing felt way to familiar, dangerously familiar.
Ghost watched the scene in front of him and wasn’t so fond of it. Everyone accepted you with no second thoughts, but even worse they already trusted you. He had to remind the two Sergeants later, that this trust could be their doom and that they needed to be a bit more careful. Keeping a save distant and letting you earn their trust. Yes, you deserved the place in the team when Price invited you already, but still you felt to him like an intruder. He had no relatives to care for besides this team. Even if he hated Price for his ongoing 'team is family' speeches, but deep-down Simon knew he was right and he would never let someone risk their wellbeing. He would rather be being hated, than seeing someone of those three men next to him get hurt. No matter if it was mentally or physically. He would take care of every threat coming their way. That's what he saw in you at the moment the most, a threat. A threat to the only thing he holds dear to him.
"A c'mon lassie, just call me Johnny.", Soaps sudden words cut through the air like a sharp knife. If the Lieutenant was a bit loose before, he was all tensed up again. Price gave an approval nod, but you could feel something breaking inside of you. Johnny, oh sweet pure Johnny. His so expecting blue eyes searching for yours. You couldn't hold his gaze and looked down to your hands on the book still resting in your lap. There was a reason everyone introduced them with their callsign. A reason you knew too well. You could compare it to a pig you needed to slaughter one day. Give it a name and you weren't able to do it anymore.
You exhaled with a sigh; your eyes still pinned onto the book. "Look...", you started, and you could already feel how his face faltered. "Don't wanna be rude, really, but I'm not here to make friends.", you explained quickly. If you would have looked up you could see his sunken brows, his head slowly started hanging and a little "Oh, sure...", escaped his lips. There was one rule you were not allowed to break: Do not grow attached. Do not let emotions deceive your point of view. Don’t let history repeat itself.
"Sorry... gonna call it a night and we have to head out early anyways" You added quickly while pushing yourself up and walking back to your room. You didn't even bother to wait for another response. At this point you wished Johnny could've been more like the stern and distant Lieutenant. Ghost wouldn't let you in, he would work with you and at a minimum tolerate you around and that's it. It wasn't difficult that way. Something you'd preferred rather than looking in those hopeful eyes just to see them losing their shine. Just like you saw too many times before. You threw yourself onto your bed and just hoped, that you could be able to sleep tonight. You needed the rest before heading out early tomorrow.

Playlist- Chapter 14: Shattered dreams (90s Noel Gallagher X Reader)
Pairing: 90s Noel Gallagher X Reader
Warnings: Fluff, pregnancy, a sad word starting with M and ending with age, language, a few spelling mistakes, maybe.
Words: 2805
Summary: Y/N is pregnant with Noel's baby. We follow her through her pregnancy journey that has its up and downs.
A/N: Heya Y'all ! Here's chapter 14, I hope you'll like it, as per usual. It's a chapter I found important (but very emotional), and the next one will be as well. You know I like to include societal subjects in my story, at first to sensibilize and also give a bit of action in the story. Some of you may even have gone through it and I hope it won't trigger you, that's not my goal. My goal is to provide visibility to subjects like this one, because it isn't taken seriously (at least not enough) and to entertain you.
Next part next weekend !
Love y'all, take care of yourselves !
Enjoy !

“And now you've given me, given me Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams Feel like I could run away, run away From this empty heart”
August 11th 1996- Knebworth:
I’m pregnant Noel.
I saw his face light up, and the biggest smile I’ve ever seen appear on his face.
Ye’re not joking right? Please, tell me ye’re not joking. He said, taking my hands in his
No I’m not. Should I understand you’re happy about these news? I answered, stunned
I’m the happiest man in the world! I’m so mad fer it, I’m going to be a dad!
He took me in his arms, holding me tight, and everything around us disappeared. I smiled, now relieved.
Before going on stage, Noel kissed me passionately and nailed it even more than usual. I hoped he wouldn’t say anything to anyone yet. But there’s someone to whom I couldn’t hide my condition. Because deep down, she already knew.
Seeing him sile so much and him being so happy, I bet you told him? Patsy asked
Told him what? I answered
About the baby growing in your stomach.
I smiled to myself.
Yeah, I told him. And he’s so goddamn happy about it. And so am I.
And I’m happy for you two! She said, taking me in her arms
I held her back, emotion starting to take over.
You’re going to be an auntie Patsy! I said, on the verge of tears, not believing my own words
*
August 12th 1996- Knebworth:
It was time for the afterparty, and I felt fit enough to attend, with Noel and a lot of people.
Please Noely, don’t tell anyone yet. I want to keep it for ourselves just a bit, okay? Except Liam. I’m going to tell him. I said
Why tell Liam and not the others?
Firstly, because he’s your brother, secondly because he’s my future brother-in-law and he’s also like my little brother and thirdly, Patsy already knows.
Wot? How does Patsy know?
Who do you think convinced me to take a pregnancy test?
Patsy.
Well done Columbo. Because she knows what it is to be pregnant. So, according to my symptoms, she knew why I was sick.
Noel nodded. I hadn’t smoked for an entire day, and I really needed a cigarette He saw me take my pack of cigarettes out of my pocket and took it from me.
Hey! I exclaimed
No smoking. He said, sternly
I just can’t quit like that; it’s going to play on my nerves. Let me have a cigarette per day for a week, so I can get used to it. Please Noel, and I’ll stop.
He hesitated for a second and sighed.
Deal. One per day, not more. And I keep yer pack with me in case ye’d decide to smoke more. I’ll give ye yer cigarette of the day.
Okay chief. I said doing a military salute
Oh no, not ye too calling me that!
*
Later in the night, when everyone went to bed, I finally had my moment alone with my fiancé, in his arms.
Did you suspect I could be pregnant? I asked
Not a minute. I really thought you had the flu.
And so… how long has it been that you wanted to have a baby with me?
Since November 22nd 1983.
Ew, gross.
Why ew? He said, chuckling
We were literally 16 years old Noely!
I know! I mean… when we were 16, I was like not now but one day yes, I wanted to wait fer this because having a kid at 16 was out of the question, but I knew on this day that I wanted ye to be the mother to me children.
That’s cute. I’m soz I can’t say the same thing because I never really asked myself if I wanted to have children in general before yesterday.
And that’s okay. But if ye thought ‘bout it…
Yes Noely. I would want it to be you. And you’re going to be such a good dad.
At least I’ll do me best. I know what’s running in this little head of yers.
Oh yeah? What then?
Ye’re hesitating to ask me if I’m scared to be like me old man because I had a shitty father. And I’ll answer that I’m scared to become a father, like every parent would be, but I’m also mad fer it. And I’m not scared to be like him, because I’m not him and I’m not like him. And I’ll never be.
Well well… You know me by heart Noely.
Yea, I do.
*
At around 8 am, I woke up and felt really nauseous. I told myself I should get up and get some fresh air. So, I went outside.
I tried to breath to prevent me from vomiting but ended up throwing up anyway. I felt someone grab my hair and hold them for me. I thought it was Noel. But it wasn’t.
Still sick I see. A male voice said
Yeah, unfortunately. And it might last a bit.
What d’ye mean?
I finished throwing up first.
Sit down, we’re going to have a chat. And thank you for holding my hair by the way Li’.
Anytime.
We walked a bit and sat down under a tree, in the grass. I could see in Liam’s look that he was impatient to know.
So… what I mean is that something that wasn’t planned, at least not yet, happened. You’re going to be an uncle, Li’.
He smiled.
Really?
Yeah.
That’s so fucking cool! Oh, thank ye Y/N, I’m so happy ye’re the one our kid decided to fuck with!
I laughed.
Then thank him too!
Oh, I will, me. How long has it been?
I don’t know yet, I’ll be seeing a doctor once we’ll be back in London.
Good. I can’t wait fer this little one to show up so I can teach…
No Li’, not so soon. I laughed
Oh, ye’re not funny! He answered, rolling his eyes
*
August 23rd 1996- London:
We were back in London for a few days and for a gig that would take place on this night. And the only appointment I had was on this day. Noel wanted to come with me, but couldn’t miss soundcheck, and this for three reasons. Firstly, because he wanted this gig to be perfect. He always wanted to, and he could have missed an hour of it for other gigs, which leads us to reason number two: This gig would be the MTV unplugged one, meaning it would be recorded and the band worked really hard for this. Reason number three…. Liam let them down on this most important day. I had to separate the brothers who almost fought (again). Liam said he was “sick” and Noel didn’t believe it, and thought he was just hangovered, and though he didn’t mind it, he would have to do the job himself, meaning he couldn’t come with me to the appointment, and hated the fact Liam was lying and unpredictable. He wasn’t doing his job properly.
So here I was… but not alone, because Patsy didn’t want me to be alone during this important moment.
Not too stressed I hope? She asked, while we were in the waiting room
Just a bit. Not because I don’t like going to the doctor’s, I got used to it with years, but because I hope I’m not too far along, knowing I kept smoking and drinking.
You couldn’t have known. You were having your period and all that stuff…
Yes, but nausea and other symptoms should have alerted me. And yet, since I know it, my stomach just grew up and man, I look really fucking pregnant now.
She put her hand on mine.
It’s gonna be okay, I understand how you feel. I didn’t go through the same thing, but I’ve been pregnant, and I know how it feels. You’re still in shock and that’s perfectly normal. But don’t be scared. Everything will be fine.
A silence settled in. I had to get rid of a heavy load.
I’ve already been pregnant before Patsy.
She was shocked.
Really?
Yeah, a few years ago. It’s when Noel and I were separated. I was with a guy called Kenneth. He was beating me and a lot of other stuff.
Like…
Yeah, the sadly famous R word.
Oh, I’m sorry…
Don’t be. I’m fine now. I’m more than that. I’m the happiest bird in the world. I was a lot younger when it happened and not ready. Noel came back and not so long after, I was pregnant, and this baby was conceived during hard moments. Kenneth didn’t like Noel at all, he thought we were a bit too close for his taste. He was paranoid, thinking I was cheating on him, and he was taking advantage of it to take advantage of me and my body. When I told him I was expecting and that I wanted to keep the baby, he pushed me in the stairs and there was no baby anymore.
Oh my God…
And what I’m going to say is absolutely horrible to hear, but I felt sad and at the same time… relief. This child wasn’t meant to be. What could have had happened to his future with a father like Kenneth? Would he have beaten this child too? No, he was killed first. But… it was better this way. It’s as if for once… he’d protected someone from himself and especially with what happened afterwards… I know what I’m saying is absolutely horrifying but…
No. No, it isn’t. What is horrifying is what happened to you. Did you even, have time to mourn this baby?
Not at first. I had to be miss perfect, so I was like high functioning. But when Noel rescued me and the aftermath… I think that’s when I did it. A part of the depression mourned this baby. This is the biggest secret I’ve kept to myself and myself only. No one knows. Not even Noel.
And it’ll follow me to the grave.  I’m so sorry and horrified you had to go through this. Noel is right when he calls you his warrior. Because this is what you are.
So yes, I lied to Noel. To protect him. I knew if I told him that he’ll run to the airport and take the first plane to Manchester to kill Kenneth. I thought about having kids before. But I stopped thinking about it since that particular day. And now, the baby I was bearing was all I wanted.
*
Hearing your baby’s heartbeat for the first time… What a fucking moving moment. I was in tears.
How… How far along am I? I asked
By the size of your baby, I’d say between 4 and 5 months. Let’s say something like 4 months and 3 weeks. And it seems like you’re having a healthy baby boy, I can already see it. Congratulations!
I was happy. All I needed to hear was said. The word healthy was ringing in my head.
I-Is it possible to print a screen shot? For me and the dad? Please?
Of course. The doctor answered, smiling
And once I had it between my hands, I couldn’t let go of it. I couldn’t take my eyes off it. Examining and re-examining the little silhouette of the being that was growing in my stomach. To the point, Patsy was forced to tell me we arrived at the Royal Festival Hall. In the car, everything I was thinking about was “And now? how will he look? What name will we choose for this little one?”
I entered the building alone, as the cab left with Patsy who would be coming back to Liam. The guys were in the middle of rehearsals. The minute Noel saw me, he stopped playing and put his acoustic guitar aside before jumping off the stage and running towards me.
Tell me everything. He said, taking my hands in his
I handed him the ultrasound’s screenshot, and he took it.
I’m 4 months and 3 weeks pregnant. And…
And?
And we’re having a baby boy.
Noel jumped in joy and held me in his arms.
Guys, I’m going to be a dad and it’s a boy! He shouted
The boys cheered, happy for us. I looked at Noel, surprised.
Noel…
Soz, I couldn’t help it. And anyway, everyone can see you’re pregnant now!
*
Jacob!
No.
Romeo!
Out of question.
Milton?
Oh come on, don’t grandpa him yet!
Martin.
Ye can do better.
Owen.
Too American fer me.
Oh come on Noel, we have to decide! I said
Ye’re only 5 months pregnant! We’ve got time fer this!
Actually it’s 4 months and 3 weeks and the baby will be born tomorrow if we let time go by.
Nevermind.
Hey no! My baby’s name won’t go with a simple and jaded nevermind!
Alright, alright. Can I propose one?
I’m all ears.
Frederick. Like imagine, we could call him Freddie Gallagher. A rockstar’s name fer a rockstar’s son.
Noely, I love you and I love Freddie Mercury but no.
Or Simon, what d’ye think about Simon?
Cute but it sounds a bit too much like Simon Lebon. But as a second name, why not? What about Andrew?
Andrew Simon Gallagher… Andy Gallagher… Yea. Yea, actually I like it. It sounds good. Deal.
See? A nevermind can quickly become an Andy.
Oh, shut yer cake ole.
*
Sometimes, it feels like happiness comes with a price. And everything you were happy about and everything you had planned ends up in a shattered dream. I knew something was wrong when it was going too well.
October 12th 1996- London:
Terrible cramps woke me up. It hurt. I hadn’t felt the baby move for a few hours now. I thought he fell asleep after giving a long series of kicks. I sat on the edge of the bed. I put my hand on my belly. I knew. I felt something was wrong deep inside. Then I felt something humid between my legs. I turned the light on. I was bleeding. It wasn’t a pool, but enough to make me panic.
Noel! Noel fucking wake up I’m bleeding! I yelled
Noel woke up, startling and saw. The man never had his driver license, so he was forced to call 999, and an ambulance took us to the hospital.
I was panicking. But not for my life. And I was right to do so. The doctors made some exams, including ultrasound. This is when the biggest heartbreak of my entire life happened. I previously told you that hearing your baby’s heartbeat is really moving. Then Heartbeat turns to heartbreak. But before turning to heartbreak, it turns to fucking heartache. My baby had been suffering. He had been kicking non-stop to alert me something was wrong. And I didn’t get it. His little heart had stopped beating and It was my entire fault.
But one of the hardest things was that I had to wait. I had to wait for my fucking cervix to dilate, not to give birth but to literally expel my own son from my womb.
Noel was by my side. I didn’t want him to see this, but he didn’t want me to be alone during this hard ordeal. And then we saw why after the “delivery”. One fucking reason. But an evident one. A knot. A knot in the umbilical cord. My son died of hypoxia. This is very rare event, as not all knots are dangerous. But this one…
And it was as if my body detected our little one’s death and started to try to expel him, but he was already too big to pass.
Apart from that tragical event, he was perfect. He had no deformities. And even if he had, I would still have loved him the same.
I was devastated, and so was Noel.
I insisted to hold Andy in my arms for a few minutes, to say goodbye. Noel and I cried, for a long time. We both kissed his little head. A shattered dream and two broken hearts.

Within the Ashes (1/??)
Summary: You’ve spent your life working for someone else. You watch their back, you protect them, but you’re left feeling empty and unfulfilled at the end of the day. What happens when a freak accident transports you to a different dimension, very nearly identical to your own?
A/N: Please understand this has been in my head for almost a year at this point and started out with the reader being an LMD without knowing it. That’s definitely not the situation with the story now, but please know it’s been through a lot of Idea Workshopping lmao. Also, the version of the FF that’s in this story is definitely a very Fanfiction-ified version, but it’s my coping mechanism, so I decide who’s good and who’s gay. Thank u for coming to my preface, please enjoy the first chapter.

“Reed, I honestly don’t think we should test it today.”
“And why’s that?”
“Promise you’ll take my concerns seriously? Because you’ve been a dick about it every other time.”
Without looking away from his screens, Reed suggests, “How about you tell me, and I’ll do my level best to keep an open mind.”
“Fine.” It’s not much, but she knows it’s the best she’ll get. “I just have a bad feeling about it.”
“Another gut feeling?” He finally turns his head to look at her, eyebrows raised dramatically. “Is that really enough to put off this test?”
“We live in a world where magic is real and you’re questioning a gut feeling?” She folds her arms. “There’s evidence that proves the existence of a nervous system in the stomach, Reed. You know this. Gut feelings are a thing, and very seldom are mine wrong. And you’d know this if you ever cared to actually listen to me.”
Reed stretches his neck so that his face is just slightly too close to (Y/N)’s. “Name one instance.”
“Two weeks ago when you were tinkering with that vacuum chamber. I told you something was wrong with it, you brushed it off because it was a gut feeling. Then it blew up.”
“Oh please-”
“I had a six inch shard of glass stuck in my shoulder!”
He rolls eyes and his head snaps back to his shoulders. Reed waves her off. “You healed.”
“I wouldn’t have had to heal in the first place if you’d listened to me.”
“We’re still testing the transport today.”
“Seriously?”
“I… respect your gut feelings, but we can’t allow that to get in the way of the progression of science.”
(Y/N) scowls. “This is exactly why no one wants to work with you.”
“You want to work with me.”
“I took the job as a favor to Johnny.”
“And yet it’s been eight years.”
“Yeah,” she mutters. “Eight years of me getting blown up and lugging shit all across the countryside.”
“I heard that.”
“Good.”
(Y/N) grabs her empty mug from her work table and stalks down to the kitchen. Sue is sitting at the bar when she walks in. She waves in lieu of a greeting and keeps her eyes trained on the tablet in her hand.
(Y/N) pours herself a cup of coffee and stares down at the full mug. The realization of what the rest of the day might hold hits her and she’s just about ready to give up. She tips her head back, covers her face, and groans.
“I think your husband’s trying to kill me.”
“Well that’s nothing new,” Sue says. “What’d he do this time?”
“He wants to test that interdimensional transport he’s been working on. I have a bad feeling about it, but I don’t have the knowledge to back it up, so he’s just brushing my concerns to the side.”
“Well that doesn’t sound good.”
“He always ignores me. And every single time, I’m the one caught in the blast. Literally.”
“I know, (Y/N), I’m sorry.”
(Y/N) dumps sugar and cream into her coffee and sighs. “If I don’t come back from the lab today, Reed did it.”
“Duck and cover if something starts sparking.”
“We’ll see if I even get the chance.”
(Y/N) takes her coffee, drains half the mug in one go, and goes back to the lab.
Reed doesn’t seem to have noticed her absence, so she simply takes herself and her coffee to her table and waits for instructions.
Tumblr media
“It’s not supposed to make that noise, right?”
“It is not,” Reed confirms.
The thunking noise coming from the transport grows louder and (Y/N) resists the urge to rub her temples. Reed doesn’t appear to be particularly concerned as he stretches across the length of the lab, searching for the source of the sound.
“Something must be loose,” (Y/N) says. “Is it on the body?”
“Not that I can see.” A sheet of metal shears off of one of the machine’s rotating arms and (Y/N) yanks him back just far enough that it misses slicing off his nose. “Thank you.”
“So something’s wrong with the arms,” (Y/N) posits. “The most dangerous part of the machine.”
“It would seem so.”
“I vote we turn it off and try again next week.”
“We don’t know if that’s enough to hinder its performance.”
“It’s enough to hinder our performance as living, breathing people.”
“Where’s your sense of adventure?” Reed creeps closer to his machine and (Y/N) cringes at the way she immediately follows behind.
“It’s securely locked away with the part of me that wanted to be a superhero.” She pulls him out of the way of another flying scrap of machine. “Because, contrary to popular opinion, just because I heal quickly doesn’t mean that it doesn’t hurt when I’m injured.”
“Hm, maybe we should look at that when we’re finished here.”
“Maybe you should find a new assistant when we’re finished here.”
Reed says something about her not being any fun, but she doesn’t register any of it. Her eyes are drawn to sparking near the base of the machine. Another chunk goes flying at them just as some of the sparks are sucked into the vent below the arms. (Y/N) is struck by the flying machine chunk as she shields Reed from it. She winces and hears an unidentifiable function of the transport stutter as another plume of sparks is sucked into the vent. She grabs as much of Reed’s body as she can and throws him towards the door, limbs flapping behind him, right as the entire machine explodes.
The force of the explosion propels Reed out into the hallway, but (Y/N) is caught in the blast. There’s a bright white flash and a blood-curdling scream and then all that’s left is the fire.
Sue is sprinting up the hallway with Ben and Johnny on her heels just as Reed manages to get his feet under himself again. All he can do is stare.
“What happened?” Sue demands. “Where is (Y/N)?”
“She saw what was happening before I did. She threw me out of the lab, but…”
“Reed,” Sue’s voice is deadly low. “What did you do?”
“I didn’t listen,” he says. “The transport malfunctioned and (Y/N) was caught in the blast.”
“Johnny,” Sue is very careful to keep her voice steady. “Put out the fire.”
Johnny simply does as he’s told. He disappears into the fire to absorb what he can and stomp out the rest. Ben surveys the progress from just outside the doorway. He says something about calling Peter and Johnny agrees from somewhere deeper in the lab.
“I screwed up, Sue.”
“No, Reed, you killed our friend. Your employee, might I add. And not even two hours ago she said you were trying to kill her.”
“I wasn’t trying to do anything of the sort.”
“I know that, but you get so blinded by your work that you can’t see when you’re putting people in danger.”
Johnny appears in the darkened doorway of the lab, tears rising in steam from his cheeks. “She was my friend, Reed.”
“I know-”
“She took this job because I begged her to!” Johnny shoves Reed, hard, into the wall. Flames lick at his fingers and Ben gently separates him from Reed. “But now she’s gone and I can’t even find her body in that warzone you call a lab.”
Reed frowns. "You didn't find her body?"
"Wh-that’s what you’re focusing on?
“Answer the question, Johnny.”
He scowls. “No, I didn’t find her. She was probably incinerated."
"Are you sure you didn't overlook anything?"
Johnny's shoulders shake with his anger. "I know what charred human remains look like, Reed. She's. Not. There."
Reed raises one shaking hand to his forehead and turns to Sue. “It might’ve worked.”
“What?”
“The transport. If there’s no body-” he rushes past Johnny and Ben without another word. Sue follows silently after him.
“That’s it, I think he finally lost his marbles,” Ben mutters.
“It doesn’t change the fact that he killed (Y/N).” Johnny wipes his eyes and turns to follow Reed to the lap. “God, Peter’s gonna flip when he finds out.”
“Don’t think about that right now,” Ben says.
“Hard not to,” he mumbles.
“I know but, if Reed’s machine did work, she could still be out there.”
“What if this is the time she doesn’t heal? You see how burnt it is in there. How could anyone survive that?”
“Dunno, but (Y/N)’s strong. If anyone could do it, it’d be her.”
Sue reappears in the doorway. Her hands and feet are covered in ash.
“There’s no sign of her,” she says. “We sifted through everything we could. There’s only a spot with slightly less ash than the rest of the room.”
“So you think Reed’s transport worked?” Johnny asks.
“I don’t know what to think. For everyone’s peace of mind, I hope it did. Then we might have a chance to track her down and bring her home.”
Johnny nods and drags his hands through his hair. “I have to make a call.”
Sue rubs his arm and nods. Johnny stalks off down the hall.
Tumblr media
“Boss, there’s a disturbance in the electrical field in your lab.”
“Any extra information on that?”
“Based on the readings, it seems that someone may be teleporting directly into the tower.”
“Excuse me?”
“It’s the best word I could find.”
Tony frowns. “I’m headed up now. Find Steve and have him meet me there.”
“Of course, boss.”
Steve is already in the lab when Tony arrives, pacing along the far side of the room. There’s a bright ball of light forming in the middle of the lab and Steve’s eyes don’t stray from that spot as he moves, even when Tony strides through the door. Tony just stops and stares at the light.
“How long has that been here?” Tony asks.
“It was here when I walked in.” Steve squints at the light. “What is it?”
“Not sure. F.R.I.D.A.Y.  says someone’s trying to teleport into the tower.”
“Teleport?” Tony nods. “Does that kind of tech actually exist?”
“Not that I know of, but we’ve seen some pretty weird shit in the last ten years. It’d be stupid to just write it off.”
Steve stops pacing and jerks his chin towards the light. “Looks like it’s getting bigger.”
The ball of light slowly, steadily expands. When it’s about as wide as Steve is tall the lab fills with a terrible, painful scream and the light grows too bright for either man to keep their eyes open. The scream grows louder and Steve tries to shield his eyes in an attempt to find where the noise is coming from, but to no avail. Then, suddenly, the screaming stops and the light disappears followed by a distinctly sticky thud.
Tony rubs his eyes and Steve blinks light spots from his vision, willing his eyes to adjust to the room again. When they do, he visibly recoils from the vaguely human shaped mass of burned flesh on the tile in front of him.
"Oh God," he says. "Is that a person?"

Part 2
Tumblr media
How’s that for a first chapter? I’ll be very honest, I’m excited to finally be posting this one. It’s been a bit of a brainchild of mine for the better part of a year and a half at this point, maybe more. Pandemic time doesn’t work right.
As always, I’d love to know what you thought of this chapter! What do you think of the reader? Her relationship with Reed and the rest of the FF? What do you think will happen in the next chapter? Be sure to reblog, comment, and/or shoot me an ask and tell me all about it!

Jali pt.3
Johnny: [sit her back down on this bed before she falls down, kissing the top of her head this time, in a lot more chaste of a manner than the cheek one but still messier and more extra than the standard way most peeps would do that, getting her hair in his mouth to gently play with and then spit deliberately out]
Ali: [‘why didn’t you have a girlfriend?’ as you’re flopping yourself down on this bed as if that was simply the hottest thing you’ve ever seen and you can’t understand why he wasn’t taken, god bless]
Johnny: [‘we don’t have girlfriends, we have wives’ as he’s drinking his water like that’s casual and you weren’t once again implying you wanna marry her]
Ali: [just stroking his back as you lay here, shaking your head like you’re in awe of this boy ‘you’ll be very good at it’]
Johnny: [a shrug like idk idk but even as he’s downplaying what a good husband he’ll be he’s sharing his water with her, literally lifting her head up and feeding her some of this like you do with an ill person so she can stay lying down]
Ali: [just do this and try not to drown because you’re too busy having feelings as you stare at him with SO much love, wiping your lips on the back of your hand ‘weird to think of you all grown up’ in a wistful kind of way]
Johnny: [looking at her like she’s messing about saying that because ‘I’m already grown’ which he genuinely believes cos tbf he has a job and lives on his own and so much other shit that like bitches in their 20s aren’t doing so it’s valid for you to say and think it sir]
Ali: [‘you know what I mean’ ‘cos we mean married and children grown here, nudging him and rubbing his muscles on his arms like I know, I know boy]
Johnny: [‘yeah’ in a more quiet and thoughtful way because he do and now he’s thinking about it in a not being her sense, the traditional sense, putting his water down and looking at her because would rather stay here in the now please @ his own brain]
Ali: [you don’t have to calm him down by making him mad, girl, so shh on this topic now, it isn’t like you enjoy thinking about it either currently ‘you’ve got me’ like whatever the hell you wanna call me, doesn’t matter, sitting yourself up to kiss along his ear casually]
Johnny: [‘I’ve got to leave you again’ because true but not making a move to actually get up yet despite saying that like he meant it, something else you don’t wanna think about really nevermind have to do because lord knows how many hours of work you have left]
Ali: [‘I’ll think of something else for you to look forward to’ as a promise, whether you mean that saucily or like you’ll actually cook him something and bring it here for dinner, you’ve not thought that far ahead yet, here being vaguely helpful by putting his hair back up for him because it definitely got fucked up there, obviously you’re doing all the kisses along his neck whilst you do it]
Johnny: [the way he just unexpectedly launches himself at her to hug her once she’s done all that for him because do have to attempt to leave and we’re overcome by emotion about it, holding her so tightly here for several beats before letting go and then doing a legit married couple style cheek kiss for the first time ever, it’s still a bit more of one than the cliche peck but it’s so so much less indecent, he’s getting there]
Ali: [have to hit him with an ‘I love you’ because the ‘Goodbye’ you said before that sounds so dramatic and final and you hate it so you just have to let yourself say what you actually want to say, soz not soz, wrap yourself up in whatever blanket is here so he can leave and it isn’t as difficult as it could be, despite having no plans of going to sleep of course]
Johnny: [hold this key for a sec while you debate saying a million and one things but decide you mustn’t or you’ll never go, drop that key and let it hit her like an ILY or goodbye of your own and then actually walk out when she’s wrapping herself up]
Ali: [let him go and probably have your sulking in bed moment for real here and now because never enough time to process any of this, like, message him an hour or so later, so soon but not like the second he’s walked out]
Ali: I didn’t hurt you, did I?
Johnny: [I’m sure you’re doing your trick of not even reading it til nearer clocking off time cos you gotta concentrate and that’s the only way you will, we all know it]
Johnny: No, don’t worry yourself
Ali: Are you nearly done?
Ali: I’ll be back in a bit, had to do some things though so I’m not there
Johnny: I’ll be off [doing whatever it is that he needs to do to make the kitchen functional as he said he would whether that’s buy a bottle of gas idk about these things] 1st, you’ve time to get here before me
Ali: In that case, I’ll have to go shopping 🛒
Johnny: Do your maths, smart girl and keep in your head how much it all is to give you back
Ali: I got it
Ali: I still just about have a paper round, had an awful bug whilst we’ve been away, obvs
Johnny: Not how this works, you’re just about a girl, you needn’t pay for nothing
Ali: just about, yeah
Ali: You’re funny
Johnny: I’m serious about taking care of you, you know
Ali: I know, you’re the most serious, it’s just so different than anything I’m used to
Johnny: You’ll find yourself used to it when it keeps on happening
Ali: You got loads more done after that, yeah? 🥰
Johnny: I’ve done enough
Ali: No jobs tonight?
Johnny: Only my share of what needs finishing in our place, like
Johnny: what’ve you got for me?
Ali: Don’t you want the surprise of waiting to see
Johnny: I don’t know about surprises
Ali: You love surprises!
Johnny: You love surprising me
Ali: Exactly, I’m one big surprise to you
Ali: I like making you happy, that’s all
Johnny: Sounds as if I’ve no knowing of you putting it like that
Ali: You do now
Ali: but you’d not have if I didn’t force my company on you like
Johnny: I might’ve
Ali: Would you? 🤔
Johnny: Maybe
Ali: So mysterious, boy
Ali: I don’t think you would, that’s why I picked you and it was all my idea
Johnny: You would say that
Ali: 😏
Ali: It’s the truth, I fancied you
Johnny: Sure, and I did you
Ali: I don’t know if I believe that
Ali: wish you did
Johnny: You’d not be with me if I never, dope
Ali: I’m fishing for compliments and you give dope 😂
Johnny: You’ve already been told why I like you
Ali: Do you think I’m weird looking?
Johnny: What? Who’s said to you that you are?
Ali: No one today, ignore me
Johnny: No, what day was it and who was it said this shite?
Ali: Just my enemies 
Ali: but I can’t feel insecure now you’re being all protective 
Johnny: You’ve none now, ‘cause yours are mine and they won’t be after having me as 1
Ali: I don’t care if anyone else likes me if you do, all I need is your approval, I swear, fuck
Johnny: You’re not to care
Ali: Do you like protecting me
Ali: or does it feel like more stress?
Johnny: You’ve things you do for me, this is 1 of mine I do for you
Ali: Good
Ali: because I really don’t want you to stop but I would if it made me just another problem
Johnny: It’s no trouble
Ali: I’m going to treat you so good tonight
Johnny: Where are you?
Ali: On my way to Tescos
Johnny: Then you’ll be on your way to ours?
Ali: Fast as I can
Ali: and you’re going to be waiting for me this time
Johnny: Can be a race
Ali: I have 🥚🥚s, it’s not fair
Johnny: To throw at your enemies, is it?
Ali: Ugh, I’m going in the wrong way now
Ali: they live over the road, next time
Johnny: That girl you wanted to murder?
Ali: That’s the one
Ali: don’t look her up
Johnny: I’ll go see her
Ali: She’ll be after stealing you
Johnny: She’ll be too scared of me
Ali: True
Ali: I can see it but I can’t be
Johnny: You know you’re safe
Ali: The safest 
Ali: haven’t felt it in a while
Johnny: You’ll be used to it soon too
Ali: I don’t know if I want to be, I like this feeling, you’re so special to me
Johnny: It’ll only be more special the longer it lasts
Johnny: [and tell her about how long some of your fam have been together because your grandparents really could have been a couple for a minute, mine met at 15 and were together til they died in their 80s so]
Ali: That’s incredible, I don’t even have grandparents to know anything about
Ali: you’ll be like that too, I know it
Johnny: [pop off telling her more about yours because she’s never gonna get to hang with any of your fam so all you can do is talk about them]
Ali: You’re really lucky
Johnny: It don’t mean they’re happy, no telling really
Ali: People of that generation’d never say, like, right
Ali: said like it’s better now, loads of people are faking it
Johnny: But we’re not, why I like you, you’re to remember that
Ali: I won’t make you tell me all loads
Ali: only needy in the good ways
Johnny: Must be lucky how you said there
Ali: No, me
Ali: That can be a fight, that
Ali: won’t crack any 🥚🥚s and I’ll win
Johnny: Big talk for a little girl
Ali: Yeah, ‘cause I can when you protect us from everything 🥰🥰🥰
Johnny: You’ll take that too far
Ali: Nothing’s too much for you 💪
Johnny: Laying it on with a trowel but you’re not wrong
Ali: Do you want me to be mean to you again?
Ali: I can’t help how I feel right now, thinking about you 
Johnny: You want to
Ali: What would have you reckoning that?
Johnny: It’s how you feel, thinking about me
Ali: Mean?
Ali: I’m gonna make you [something off the list you both liked] like an 😇
Johnny: Will you?
Ali: Be mean to you or cook for you? 
Ali: what do you think I was in Tescos for, dope
Johnny: Who are you calling names again?
Johnny: I don’t know that you can cook without burning the place down
Ali: That’d be arson, kicking the 😈 up a bit too far, don’t you think, babe
Johnny: I reckon if we can’t have it nobody else should
Ali: We could move it, if we found somewhere we wanted to be
Johnny: Are you wanting to stay put?
Ali: I don’t know that yet, the roadtrip was too fun for me to think yeah but
Ali: what if we found a perfect place, that matched our place, we can be how we are in there everywhere
Johnny: We’ve time to decide
Ali: We can do it all, we’ve got time, if we want it
Johnny: I want it
Ali: I do too, more than anything
Ali: Don’t change your mind
Johnny: I can’t, Ali
Ali: I can’t feel bad enough about it to stop myself, I need you
Johnny: I need you more
Ali: I’m yours forever, all yours
Ali: as well as nearly there, on a less serious note
Johnny: It’s proper serious, I’m waiting
Ali: Patiently?
Johnny: Patient as I’ve got it in me to be
Ali: That’s a hard no then, good
Ali: Hang on 😼😻🥴
Johnny: Hurry yourself up or I’ll fetch you from Tescos
Ali: Quiet yourself and quit distracting me, boy
Johnny: [Send her a very distracting picture like you owed her that for killing you at work before when you simply had to come home at lunch about it]
Ali: Fuck me
Johnny: When you come home to me
Ali: [get yourself here and hide your bike up and just about get these groceries on the counter undoubtedly]
Johnny: [looking at this lil food shop so sassily for a sec like careful with your eggs gal, but then we all know he’s doing his LINGERING looking up and down of her how he do cos she’s been out in the world looking however she looks rn and he wants to see]
Ali: [as you had to either go into school to show you still exist or at least go home and pretend you had been to school, you’re probably in your uniform, even if you’ve brought things to change into so soz not soz how blatantly flirty that seems of us, have to be LOOKING at you too, comparing how you looked in that photo to how you do in front of us right now]
Johnny: [we love to see it because idk if he ever actually has yet with how rarely this girl is in school in this era lol, even if he has though, LOOKING like it’s the first time ofc and patting the space next to him wherever he is currently having made himself comfy to wait for her]
Ali: [the only reason you would have is when you were stalking her in the bad times blatantly because was the first few months of school then but you haven’t seen it in person clearly, so come skipping over ‘cos too happy right now, smiling at him with full heart eyes, scanning his face to make sure you didn’t bruise him with your earlier antics because a possibility]
Johnny: [ah yes those bad times, you would have only seen it from afar then sir so enjoy your close up, especially because I know you will have bruised her somewhere whether from your insane kissing antics or lovebites or when you fully hit her, so that + this school uniform is immediately sending him and the way he’s looking at her rn is obscene]
Ali: [cannot handle anything about the way you’re looking at us, the blushing is so real as well as the !! noise you make which is probably meant to be like oi, you stop that but it is simply just a noise]
Johnny: [just dragging her even closer to him and kissing her everywhere there’s blush or bruise so indecently, no notes]
Ali: [when cuddling into his of course turns into you sneaking your hands under his clothes to feel what you did earlier on his chest because how else can we express the way we’re DYING than remind you of that ‘how has it only been [however many hours since lunch]?’ casually feeling like forever with how much you’ve missed him]
Johnny: [his own hand going under this school skirt to feel his initials and hand print, shamelessly loving how easy this outfit makes it for him to do ‘and [however many since he did this]?’ because not at all over it or anything they ever do]
Ali: [have to use this as an excuse to be in his lap instead of next to him, shifting with the GASP you do about the reminder and the contact ‘too long’ looking up at him ‘but you’re here now’ kissing him on the lips very restrained given how !! you are you’re practically vibrating from the holding back]
Johnny: [doing his own v restrained booty slap as they kiss because she said it had been too long but we’re matching her vibe instead of being feral ASAP, plus when that’s not loud af you can hear the noise he does because of her basically vibrating cos obvs loves it, his other hand going under her shirt to touch the name on her chest because he hasn’t yet, doing that so slowly but with more intensity because his fingers are pressing in slightly, not yet enough to be !! or make her bleed all over this white shirt though]
Ali: [however restrained, we still have to moan about it because the anticipation is working overtime, pressing back into his hand harder about it, then immediately having to press your chest up into that hand so you’re just moving against him at that point, doing a little lol like whoops, kissing him even smaller, really just doing little kisses but against his lips only]
Johnny: [we can all pretend he’s moving against her in response to her moving against him but the truth is that it’s in response to those little kisses and the softness and the giveaway is that he calls her the most special of his secret lingo words for baby about it, not quite as a moan but so !!]
Ali: [doing the softest but most insistent bite of his bottom lip because the not-so-secret kills you every time, very slowly bending down to take off your pants without moving from his lap or taking any of your other clothes off, doing a hiss about the contact when you fully sit yourself back down after this ‘daddy’ as you’re wrapping your arms around his neck and playing with his hair]
Johnny: [doing the moan he didn’t quite do a second ago about all of this, quietly but it’s even more !! and intimate feeling for that like there’s somebody else here and he only wants her to hear it, at the very least you don’t want the rest of the site to be hearing y’all yet, playing with her hair too not even realising you’re in sync just wanting to and wanting her as close again so pressing his forehead to hers too whilst his hands stay buried there]
Ali: [the combination of a BIG BREATH and a happy sigh because you’re just that content but also can’t pretend we’re not unreasonably turned on by you at all times including and especially now, here having a snuggle but it’s also indecent because you can’t help but be moving against him at all times ‘your eyes are so dark’ whilst you’re in this forehead press and just STARING into them ofc]
Johnny: [STARING back into hers as if to say how light and blue hers are in comparison but without saying it because he simply has to press his cheek against hers where she’d have a bruise if she has one from him hitting her whether she does or not and then kiss her on the mouth with the same energy as his indecent cheek kisses because the eye contact is overwhelming when he feels this overwhelmed by her which is always but especially rn and I don’t trust what this boy might say lol]
Ali: [I imagine you do, ‘cos why not, not saying you’ve got a full black eye situation but you know, enough that y’all can see and know where and why she does, unthinkingly tightening your grip in his hair as these kisses go harder and more out of control because your grip on that was loose at best ‘you said’ into this kiss because we know you’re referring to the last thing he messaged you that had you zooming here]
Johnny: [a look around at their surroundings + the shopping and then back at her ‘you are home’ because gotta call it their home again just to say that because into it obvs, kissing her again harder, holding both sides of her face and pressing his fingers into the bruise like he did into her name before, not really hard but hard enough as he’s giving her what she wants, whether he was fully naked waiting here or like her he has underwear that’s the only thing he’s taking off, maybe we’ll say that’s the case cos we love a parallel, but anyway, then they are going at it]
Ali: [doing your furious nod ‘ with you’ because gotta say anywhere with you will be, of course, the strained noise as you grit your teeth, not making it clear if it's from the bruise press or him entering you, is clearly both, got to be giving him all the lovebites wherever we can because feel like we’re going to crumble our teeth with how hard we’re grinding them together right now]
Johnny: [say it back because it’s just another way to say she’s yours to you, literally said you’re with me right at the start of jali so, but we all know how it sounds because of the lovebites she’s giving wherever they are, unthinkingly pressing his fingers into his name on her chest hard enough to actually make her bleed all over this white shirt this time and then of course MOANING when he realises that’s happened because thinking about if she had to wear that to school even though she realistically will not because imagine peeps would be like ummm, could not be moving more or harder about it, grabbing his initials with his other hand to see if they’ll bleed too]
Ali: [when you have to stop your own feral attack to LOOK at him because you’re having the same thoughts and feelings about this and you are OBSESSED with it, here giving him ALL the help you can in this endeavour, as if the noises you’re making and way you frantically picked up the pace aren’t both dead giveaways, going for his chest in the same way, just so you can have his blood on this ruined shirt too because so important to us]
Johnny: [I don’t even need to say he’s as obsessed, letting the blood from the initials run down all over her and him because that’s a mood but licking it off her chest so that there’s blatantly gonna be his spit ending up on this shirt too because that’s also a mood and the point, getting so much blood on his mouth with this endeavour which is then getting all over her face and neck because he’s kissing her everywhere, simply must, the blood that’s on his hand from holding her booty before leaving fingerprints all over her from where he’s grabbing her waist as they move]
Ali: [making the most mess, me like so glad you didn’t get your nice bedsheets and shit yet honey because the way you’d be doing all the stain removal immediately lol, no fucks given regardless because we couldn’t be happier and more out of our mind with all that we’re doing here ‘the smell-’ as something vaguely coherent amongst the sheer nonsense and noise because that much blood that the metallic smell is in the air and you can’t handle how into you are]
Johnny: [oh I’d be so cross if they were trashing this bed and she had, jali could not give a single fuck though, the way this would be reminding you of halloween with the fake blood so doing some kind of throwback move to one of your hookups then that I can’t remember but he would because it wasn’t long ago to y’all, but also it’s totally different because the blood is real and he’s likewise losing it so much harder for that, nuzzling into her with his nose as well as his mouth to emphasise this because can’t be coherent but need to let her know we agree despite how obvious it is]
Ali: [the fact halloween seems so long ago and yet will only have been a week after your bonfire night party is WILD and wilder still is y’alls feral arses, nuzzling is so the right word because you’re not remotely thinking about the way you’re touching him and sensing him in every way you can, you’re just doing it like an animal, without regard to how insane it could look, saying his name like it’s the only word you know because the only clear thought you are having is all him and only him]
Johnny: [that is truly madness given how extra y’all have been since you got back together then, I’m loling, and yeah, really living your best feral lives here because he could not give less of a fuck either, god bless, nobody needs to hear you pair while they are just trying to have dinner or whatever so please don’t be screaming the place down at least boy]
Ali: [my boo says have some decorum, at least you’re being unhinged mostly in what you’re doing right now, like it’s private somehow in ways some of your other hookups have not been, just for y’alls eyes the absolute scenes you have created here on this day, are saying ‘I can never go back’ though, in reference to the state of you, like your parents, your school, anyone and everyone is gonna be like HELLO]
Johnny: [it’s kind of adorable actually that you’re wanting to keep it so private, like it’s not that entirely the wrong word for these feral scenes, but you know ‘you’ve no need’ in relation to anywhere, keeping her forever, really adding unnecessary emphasis with the way he’s then trying to make her swallow the key so she has no way out, just adding to this carnage, but we all know he’s so serious and would run away with her right this second ‘you’re where you belong’ because here and with him and to him]
Ali: [try not to actually swallow it girl, whilst you’re giving it that you will because duh, gotta prove we’re as serious here even if it’s attempting something dangerous to our health, you can cough it up dramatically though, really add to the insane vibes here on this day, make him comfort you because yes, nowhere else to be ‘you promise?’ sounding hoarse af from all this]
Johnny: [me like don’t end up in a&e please, Rocky is already getting hurt on bonfire night which isn’t far away, pressing their chests together like a promise as he rubs her back and makes all the comforting noises ever and holds her to him and is obvs also kissing her throat better, first on the outside and then inside with the unhinged but soft kisses he’s trying to do]
Ali: [good thing you will be unable to talk with these deep af kisses because you would be being so ridiculously extra about your feelings right now and that’s obvious from the whining you are still just able getting from your mouth into his, squeezing around him so tightly like you will never let go]
Johnny: [mhmm it’ll be a good thing that you have to stfu for a minute as well hun because I don’t trust you ever but especially when feelings are this high, instead just be here trying to merge together with how close you are trying to be in every single way]
Ali: [enjoy your hookup and how you’ve never felt closer in so many senses lads, you don’t need to be able to say shit for y’all to know and us to know that it’s never been so intense and your feelings have never been realer]
Johnny: [I honestly love it for you because there’s no telling how long it will last with this boy and his intense moods so, truly while it does make the most of it, and when you’re done he can finally be nosy about what she brought from big tesco]
Ali: [following him to get him out like he’s a child trying to find the treats you’ve clearly also bought as well as ingredients like don’t spoil your dinner, tutting and shaking your head like honestly but we’re grinning like a massive nerd]
Johnny: [finding wherever his abandoned clothes pile is when she’s shooed him and getting out some money from his trouser pocket to give her for what he’s estimated this food costs based on the quick look he had because he meant that about her never paying for anything tis the gypsy boy way]
Ali: [we’re taking it because it is cultural truly and we’re not going to insist on paying just for the sake of it here, giving him a kiss on the cheek how he likes to as you put this money in your purse/bag/whatever ‘should only take [however long, you clearly picked something easy because don’t actually wanna slave over this and not be with this boy]’]
Johnny: [we all know she wasn’t wrong when she said before about how he never stops and relaxes so finding some little diy job in this caravan that’ll take him as long as the food will take her to make, so domestic of you lads, I stan]
Ali: [smiling at him sneakily ‘cos he’s just like you for real, when are you ever stopping a day in your life ‘you’re not going to watch me to make sure I know what I’m doing here?’]
Johnny: [I like to think he’s picked a diy job to do that still keeps her in his line of sight because that sort of bear so looking up from what he’s doing, and WATCHING her so intensely that she’s gonna blush again]
Ali: [flicking a tea towel type thing even if it’s actually a rag more likely in his direction like stop it you but also purposefully giving him a show to watch in a way you don’t need to to be cooking this meal]
Johnny: [laughing as if he’s doing it for oh you what are you like vibes but really it’s simply a hot lol for the show she’s giving ‘you’ll be decent at it’ echoing when she said he’d be a good husband earlier when they were having that discussion, could be casual and bants re this show but it absolutely isn’t, just saying she’ll be a good wife]
Ali: [do your blushing at this hot lol and what comes after it because still all you want is to be able to be with this boy like that and it be fine ‘you’ve taught me loads about it’ shrugging it off but as per we’re anything but casual really]
Johnny: [shrugging off what she just said and looking down to carry on his DIY task but he’s anything but casual himself about it really and that’s blatant by his hand through his hair move and how much he’s acting like he’s gotta concentrate on this when he does not]
Ali: [get back to focusing on your own task here, acting like you’re not sneakily watching him again but with a far more intense energy now, as if you can work out what he’s thinking from this alone ‘you mean it?’ Quietly whilst your back is turned to be stirring a pot or whatever as so to give casual but really you just can’t look at him and ask]
Johnny: [come up and hug her from behind while she’s stirring or whatever cos yeah he do mean it so hard he’s gotta express it like this instead of just saying yeah or something]
Ali: [doing a happy sigh as you’re leaning back into him, pulling his head to yours so you can rub your cheek against his before giving it a kiss ‘it had to be you’ because you know there are families and boys where this would be easier but even if you could change that you wouldn’t and that’s very clear in your tone and how you’re running your hands over his arms that are around you]
Johnny: [not even aware he’s doing his own happy sigh to echo hers, but very aware he’s turning her cheek kiss into a real af mouth one after she’s said that because it’s everything, just making out with so much feeling until a pot boils over or something and y’all have to stop so she can deal with that like lol oops]
Ali: [‘that was your fault’ like FYI but we are amused and cleaning up the mess with our tea towel moment so neither of you gets scalded here hopefully lol ‘I’m otherwise entirely in control and know what I’m doing’ bigging ourselves up but you would know how to cook, none of you can afford not to]
Johnny: [holding his hands up like he did at halloween as he walks backwards to wherever his DIY task is so he can keep looking at her with an unrepentant smirk until he’s focusing on said task again and letting her finish hers]
Ali: [checking him out as entirely unrepentantly because you can and that makeout was everything and you’re not over it just because this pot decided to be the drama, but get this dinner cooked and plated on whatever plates you either picked up from a vintage shop or brought from your own collection to here, gonna dip in and say he was fixing the table moment because that could be an easy task and is also then just perfect timing for him to finish so y’all can eat this food]
Johnny: [love the way you think boo, that’s adorable and I second it, meanwhile I’m gonna say he gets one of the candles that didn’t entirely melt down to nothing on halloween night and puts it in the middle of the table for that throwback to the peak romance of their candlelit encounter and the vibe of it being an almost dead but not quite candle just there chilling and lasting the length of this meal as more perfect timing]
Ali: [you love to see it, just casually having such an immaculate night here, like, can’t even believe it levels ‘don’t you think that life should always be like this?’ because we certainly do, it’s so simple but it’s everything]
Johnny: [the vibes are always immaculate, well done lads ‘in an ideal world, it would be’ because he’d happily live like this forever but he always knows deep down that he cannot and they are on borrowed time unless they really do fully commit to running away, with a shrug as if it’s casual and not heartbreaking because just trying to eat this meal and enjoy this evening and not be sad]
Ali: [‘that’s the one I intend to live in’ with the same, we’re just having a chat, tone here; nothing is deep and neither of us is going to get hurt]
Johnny: [‘there’s only the one way for us to choose where we live’ again just HARDCORE being like okay let’s run away, as if that’s so nbd]
Ali: [‘You’re close to your family’ because we know if you did it, it wouldn’t last, saying this so lowkey sadly that you literally have to shake it off more than shrug here and carry on eating]
Johnny: [‘you’re close to your siblings’ because not only has he literally taken her to visit Joe he has also watched her from afar many a time so he’d have seen her with Tommy and Ro both I am sure, and he’s just picked up things from being obsessed with her truly, we can’t lie, saying this a touch defensively because he can’t bear it to be purely his fault if they don’t go]
Ali: [‘yeah’ doing the thing where you have more to say but what you do, you don’t want to, so it’s the one-word answer instead because yes, that isn’t a lie, shaking your head in a we can drop this way]
Johnny: [just eat your food in now awkward silence because you wanna drop this too clearly but it’s still there hanging between y’all regardless so]
Ali: [‘I’d go’ after a while because can we leave anything alone really, no, we cannot, said like you know I would ‘it’s years away anyway’ actually casual and trying to lighten the mood because you aren’t going to be separated now at any rate]
Johnny: [LOOKING up at her from this plate or wherever he’d fixed his gaze to check she’s telling the truth which ofc she is, a nod that is more meaningful than it sounds like yeah I do know you would and so would I ‘we’ll go’ like a correction because he means it in this moment even if it is years away and he can and will go back on it a million times between now and then, looking towards the equivalent location in this caravan to where he told he stashes the money he saves in his as further emphasis]
Ali: [smiling at him, quickly, then down at your plate because the smile feels massive and like you can’t fully hit him with all that right now, doing your own nod back as you look down like okay, nudging his knee with yours for your own !! emphasis]
Johnny: [no fucks given with how quickly he’s leaning over this makeshift table and holding her face, only the bruised side deliberately because as !! and simply must bring her head back up immediately ‘family’s important, how I’ve told you, but so are you’ because he has told her that and he’s told her before she’s important too, so no lies detected]
Ali: [unintentionally doing the biggest 🥺 because trying not to have a full emotional outburst moment at his face but you do have all the feelings, now more than ever ‘you know how I feel about you’ holding the opposite side of his face]
Johnny: [no notes, he’s just LOOKING at her like say it as if he’s never heard her say ILY before because that’s how not over it this boy is and how much he especially wants to hear it in this moment]
Ali: [when this table is only just fixed so you’re looking down at it with the full knowledge how easily y’all could break it, as well as the candle between y’all that’s still burning but is also potentially seconds away from being knocked over and the wax going everywhere, licking your fingers to put it out as you move around this table to sit with him ‘I love you, I’ll do what I have to to be with you’]
Johnny: [thank god she did blow that candle out because the way he’s LAUNCHING himself at her when she’s barely had chance to finish her sentence is beyond dangerous if she hadn’t, literally knocking her into and almost onto the table here with the force of it because gotta make out with her like she’s the next course of this meal y’all may or may not have finished, tearing at her clothes which would defs be thrown on top of a lit flame if she hadn’t thought ahead, that school shirt is 1000% ending up in whatever they were just eating, oh the feral but immaculate vibes]
Ali: [thank god you have quick reflexes so you two can end up on the floor if needs be if the alternative is through the table right now, not that it’d stop you and we all know and love that, the way this shirt is never going to be fully clean again, we live, soz fam, no thoughts to y’all available when we’ve gotta be exorcising all the awkward energy from this room by being feral with how we’re making out and trying to physically and permanently attach ourself to this boy lowkey]
Johnny: [mhmm it has to be done and me and this boy are avoiding the ILY curse via the most indecent makeout sesh and inevitably ensuing hookup, soz not soz, just frantically going at this like it’ll get rid of his insanely intense feelings instead of heightening them, it’s fine, we cope how we cope] 
Ali: [‘do you want me to say it more? Tell you what I would do for you, how much?’ because you have the opposite of an ILY curse when it’s this blatant how much he likes it now]
Johnny: [whatever enthusiastic response he was going to give instead being the most enthusiastic noise is the only acceptable answer there so have that gal, along with it going without saying he’s also continuing to do the most in every single other way as encouragement she doesn’t need to be running her mouth about this]
Ali: [you have to make your own noises about this before you can remotely say shit though because how aggressively hard y’all are going at this would make it hard to speak, however much you have to say, like ‘you deserve me making you as happy as you make me, all the time’]
Johnny: [me so sadly here like RIP to those vintage plates because in no world does this boy not have her fully on this table until or unless it collapses, is nothing sacred sir, the answer is no obvs, all he cares about is being a feral heathen, I’m sure it’ll break and literally everything will fall to the floor and they still won’t stop because he couldn’t love her more rn and this is the only way to deal with and express that]
Ali: [it’s your place, trash it if you gotta, lads, we understand, obviously this is sending us because the intensity, how could it not ‘the more bruised the better, is it?’ ‘cos lord knows the damage and we know it is, hence the ridiculously insane heart eyes too]
Johnny: [‘you’ve school in the morning’ taking a phrase that is usually used as a reason for a no to be SUCH a yes is a move I wholeheartedly respect sir, because the shirt got them so hard earlier and is only now more trashed and duh he loves the idea of her being there all bruised and blatantly belonging to him, me like I hope if you do go into school nobody in charge notices though cos that’s an awks convo lol]
Ali: [‘no one is going to fuck with me when they see what you do to your baby’ as you’re moving his hands to every significant mark you have on you by this point like remember, as if either of you has forgotten anything]
Johnny: [PRESSING into every single one so hard how she showed him as if they’d have any chance remotely to fade at all between now and school starting in the AM, just gotta do it, leaving more lovebites along the way anywhere he feels like also needs one/there’s a glaring neglected space, going IN on some, doing quick nips for others just depending how he feels cos gotta keep this girl on her toes always]
Ali: [GASPING ‘I’ll press on them every time I miss you, I promise’ like they are going nowhere because that’s going to be constant, the way we can’t guess what you’re going to do next having us beyond overwhelmed ‘all I do is miss you ‘til we’re back together’]
Johnny: [cutting his palm open and then hers with this key in the deliberate cliche we’re doing a blood pact manner so there’s 0 confusion, the effort that would take because it’s not that sharp just adding to it for you both, pressing them together and linking their fingers in the most dramatic handhold ever of all time, ofc he’s holding the other one and fully pinning her to this table with it, no fucks given to everything that’s on there or the fact it’ll likely collapse]
Ali: [licking a drop of blood that escapes down his arm hungrily because did not get enough of this earlier and couldn’t be clearer how anything and everything means just that, the sound we’re making as we dramatically big swallow, SQUEEZING your hands together to a painful degree ‘tell me what you want me to promise’ like do it because we will rn immediately]
Johnny: [his eyes could NOT be darker or more unblinking than they are during that big swallow, so about it and the painful element she has added to this already intense af handhold, the sound of their bloody hands squeezing together is somehow even more extra than the sound of their bodies and we love that ‘you know what I’m after from you, all of it’ like that’s a fact because it feels like it is, she just be knowing things and he’s been that shamelessly blatant]
Ali: [‘I’d let you do all the things you’re thinking about when you look at me like that’ so seriously because his eyes get us and we can’t think of a boundary which should be scary but it just isn’t ‘you already have all of it, just ask for what you think is missing and I’ll give it to you’]
Johnny: [‘nothing’s missing’ as seriously because how he feels here and now, in this moment he has everything he could possibly want and can’t think of more to ask for, idk why I’m emosh about that, excuse me, okay wait no, I feel like this should be the moment y’all actually fully fall through this table, which has clearly been threatening to break for a minute but y’all probs thought wouldn’t since it’s still hanging in there unlike when the plates went crashing to their deaths, RIP, and still don’t care or let it stop you because how cinematic truly]
Ali: [you’re going to have to kiss him with the slowness and softness nothing else about this exchange contains because likewise emotional and it is the only appropriate response, never mind the casual extreme restraint that would require when you two are literally smashing things up here]
Johnny: [I love the softness while y’all are surrounded by absolute carnage so continue having a really soft and loving makeout while you’ve literally fallen through a table to the floor, excellent vibes, especially considering you haven’t stopped fucking and couldn’t be harder rn]
Ali: [so cinematic, well done lads, the way we’re repeating ILY is also so quiet but desperate too because what else could possibly be done when you’re here dying this hard]
Johnny: [throw out your secret lingo wife word for the second time because you’ve done baby again earlier, she doesn’t know what this one means yet but we do and also it’s kind of blatant from the context clues you always give sir, being panted out essentially because dying in all the ways here, emotionally and physically]
Ali: [we’re not going to be shook when we know what the actual word means because we completely understand the energy here and always, hence it’s definitely going to make you cum right now after all that tension and the release, at least you’re both that blatant because no hiding what tipped you over the edge there]
Johnny: [mhmm it’ll only be confirming what she already knows and what she hopes is true, you’re welcome for that gal cos imagine if he was saying really mean shit, thankfully not though, and her cumming and why can also finish this boy off too which is nice, I can’t decide if I think you shouldn’t pull out for the peak romance or if he should to add to the carnage, take that to a vote lol]
Ali: [lol that would be really awkward for you to address so thank god we don’t need to, hmm, really can make a case for both because on the one hand you’re basically in your we’re running away and getting married headspace so duh, impregnate her too casually but on the other hand it’s always a good show of this is how you wanna do it and your rules and that you’re in control to not so, flip a coin lowkey, I can see either rn]
Johnny: [exactly that ^^ because I 1000% believe y’all will run away when she does get preggo only to have to come back when she loses it because he thinks he’s being punished by god, but also yeah, it’s also a mood and a moment for him to aim it at the plate she previously ate off of, however many pieces said plate might be in atm, let’s go for option 2 the absolute feral hog heathen choice, why not]
Ali: [mhmm, oh what a time that will be, lordy my, meanwhile in the here and now my only concern is you not cutting your tongue on the pieces of this plate ‘cos of course you gotta do it, just so you can hot lol as you only now fully take in the extent of the carnage y’all have created like damn, okay]
Johnny: [Winnie will be beside himself, but in the here and now watch this gal do what we knew she would which is why he did it there specifically instead of somewhere else amongst this carnage like on her poor fucked up school shirt RIP to that too, and then pick her up and lift her out of this carnage like you’ve only now considered she could get hurt and put her on y’all’s new bed, take your own sec once you have to look at the carnage properly and grin at her]
Ali: [just here happy rolling in this bed like a Maggie baby tbh, because can’t deal with the way he looks right now, still we must do grabby hands gesturing like get in this bed also because can’t stand any distance either ever]
Johnny: [do get in it boy and pull her to you, resting her head on his chest where her name is obvs, just having a snuggle pause]
Ali: [just be here kissing the palm of his hand like yours isn’t also cut and he wasn’t the one that did it, being the cuddliest ever]
Johnny: [kiss hers too cos you did do it and you’ve gotta kiss it better while you’re lying here cuddling and trying to recover]
Ali: [‘I can’t decide if that means you really liked it or really hated it’ gesturing with a lil head nod towards the carnage you’ve left behind, as if that was all just a reaction to dinner, giving him a lil head butt in the chest like oh you]
Johnny: [doing his own hot lol because imagine if it was just a reaction to dinner, ruffling her hair like oh you but really he’s just grabbing it and running his fingers through it almost immediately after that because distracted by how much he stans her hair always]
Ali: [leaning into it because feels good, doing contented hums and closing your eyes, scratching your own nails up and down his thighs and stomach just because you love him and he’s right there ‘what would you do if I cut all my hair off?’ as one of those silly what-ifs you throw out when you’re just chilling, living laughing loving]
Johnny: [‘I’d not let you’ like that’s a fact and therefore this what if can not happen, because he can’t help being intense even when he’s chilling and the most relaxed he can possibly be]
Ali: [tickling his sides because you think he’s adorable no matter how intense, always, kissing his ears in the same, trying to be annoying but is just being cute, vibe ‘I never would’ because we also like our hair so don’t you worry]
Johnny: [wriggling as if it’s because of the tickling but really he’s simply getting more of his body wrapped around hers for the snuggle of it all and the intense closeness always, pushing her hair behind her ears as she’s kissing his and kissing her on the forehead for the peak little girl and good girl energy of what she said because he approves]
Ali: [when you can’t shiver to full potential because of how tightly he’s holding you but this means he’s going to feel it and absorb what couldn’t fully be expressed there, playing with a strand of his hair that you had to move out of your way to kiss his ear ‘how long has yours been long?’]
Johnny: [‘from when I had my own say’ because when he was little his mum would have decided on what she thought his hair should be like which is usually always short for lil boys unless you’re a type of bitch and doing something, I’m sure you and your brother and cousins basically had identical haircuts whatever those looked like and you can tell Alison that info like lol imagine that please, you can compare it to any younger brothers and cousins she’d have seen running around like it was exactly that vibe basically]
Ali: [just imagining him as young as those little kids and smiling to yourself because it’s a cute mental image, you can tell him about the severe bob era of your own childhood, like thanks for that one mother lol]
Johnny: [just be exchanging childhood stories in a similar vein that I won’t commit us to, just falling in love and getting to know each other on a deeper level nbd]
Ali: [it’s totally fine, not at all getting in deeper and deeper here, soz not soz everyone else]
Johnny: [but at some point, probably mid one of these anecdotes you’re telling her, yawn your word you were on because it’s not a copout to say he’d be tired after everything but it is a way I can wind down this convo]
Ali: [good thinking honey, catch us tucking you in, taking off any clothes you may or may not have on if needed, snuggling into you even harder about it like come on you, bedtime]
Johnny: [catch this boy holding onto the key as he falls asleep so she can’t sneak out, as if she ever would lol, I hope it’s with the hand that you didn’t cut open but knowing you sir it’s probably the one you did, keeping things intense even now, holding her so tightly with the other one even though she’s wrapped round him still]
Ali: [once again where are your parents honey, acting like you’re grown and don’t have a home you gotta get back to at some point, as well as school]
Johnny: [it would be laughable if it wasn’t so unfunny, she’s not even hit her teens yet, oh mcvickers what are you doing truly, Tess I know you’ve lost it because you lost a child but like, come on now are you trying to lose all your others, soz not soz this boy is gonna have the best sleep of his life though]
Ali: [likewise, could not be happier about all we’re being allowed to get away with right now, trying not to be creepy but are so watching this boy fall asleep until we also do]
Johnny: [once a creepy girl always a creepy girl, good work though gang, we did it]

23 days of NCT masterlist.
taglist: @notbeforelong @mrcarbonatedmilk @unknown5tar @whathamelon @ajhdr @curieouscapt @silent-potato @gjheaaa
warnings: baby daddy mark, hidden pregnancy (?, tooth rotting.
Tumblr media
“Dude, isn't that y/n?” Mark’s old friend, John, pointed at you.
Yeah, that was most definitely his ex. You were holding a small girl between your arms, helping her reach for a box of lucky charms. You looked just as beautiful as three years ago, even more, he daresay.
“Go talk to her.” His friend elbowed him. “I’ll go get the meat, maybe you can invite her to our barbecue.”
“We haven't seen each other in a while, don't you think it'll be a little too weird?”
“Go for it, I know you're still hung up on her.”
“How...?”
“I heard your last girl complaining about how you called y/n’s name while having sex with her, it was hilarious, to be honest.” Mark punched him in the arm, earning a small groan from the tall man. “But seriously, though, you broke up with her to focus on your career. Now that you have a stable job, what's stopping you from getting her back?”
“I don't know, man...”
“Give it a try, I'll be with the butcher if you need me.” He winked at the Canadian boy, making his way to another aisle.
Mark took a deep breath before his feet finally started moving. You were placing the small girl in the shopping cart’s seat, tickling her tummy while at it.
“Y/n?” Your eyes almost came out of their caves as you heard his voice.
“Mark...” You stared at him with wide eyes, looking back and forth between the little girl and him. “I thought you’d moved back to Canada.”
“I came back a year ago.” He fiddled uncomfortably with the rings adorning his fingers. “I really wanted to contact you, but since things between us were a little complicated when I left...” By complicated he meant breaking your heart and leaving a day after ending things between you.
“It’s really okay, Mark. No hard feelings.” You smiled sweetly at him, your pretty eyes turning into half moons.
“And who’s this little one? Your niece?” He caressed the top of the girl’s head, who wasn’t even aware of his presence, too focused on getting rid of the wrapping around the chocolate you’d just bought her.
“Actually-”
“Mommy, I need help!” Mark froze.
“Oh, sure sweetie.” You tone completely changed when addressing her. “Mark, this is my daughter, EunHee. Say hi, baby.”
“Hi, Mark.” She extended her hand as you tore the wrapping of the chocolate bar open. His surprised expression turned into a big smile, covering her small hand with his significantly bigger one. “Look, mom. His cheeks are just like mine!” She poked Mark’s cheekbones.
You could almost feel a drop of sweat rolling down your forehead.
“Wait, you're right.” The Canadian man pointed out as your daughter smiled at him. “That's crazy.” Thank God Mark was so naive. “So where’s the father of this little bean?”
‘Right in front of me.’ You thought.
“She doesn't...”
“Oh, sorry. It must've been hard raising her on your own.” He reassuringly placed a hand on your arm. “How old is she?”
“Uhm, s-she’s-”
“I’m this old.” EunHee interrupted, showing her three small fingers.
You hoped Mark’s brain capacity wouldn't be enough to connect the dots. But you had to admit, it was pretty obvious.
“Wow, you're so big.” It was heart-warming watching your daughter interact with her father for the first time, even if they didn't know the truth about each other. “So, we're having a barbecue at my place today. There’s always room for someone else, and you can bring EunHee if you’d like. My address is still the same.”
“I’ll think about it.” You handed the chocolate bar back to your daughter, who didn’t even take a second to eat up the whole thing.
“Alright, I guess I’ll see you then, maybe.”
(...)
“Mark’s hitting on a mom!” Yuta mocked him, causing the whole garden to erupt into laughter.
“And what’s wrong with that? She isn’t married.”
“Mark, you literally just met with her again after three years, slow down.” Jaehyun interceded, eyes stuck to his phone.
“Guys, stop messing with Mark. He's always loved y/n, so let him be.” Johnny spoke from the grill, turning around a steak. “Besides, I saw the little girl. She looks a lot like Mark, so I bet no one would be able to tell they're not actually related.”
“How old did you say she was?”
“Three.”
“Okay, don’t be mad at me, but did you ever have sex with her without protection?”
“What are you trying to say, Haechan?” Taeil asked bitterly.
“Just think about it, guys. It makes sense.” While his friends discussed the possibility of him being a dad, Mark’s head was rather busy trying to remember every little detail from the last time he was intimate with you.
But as much as he tried, he couldn't remember having worn a condom. And as far as he knew, you weren't on the pill.
The doorbell cut his string of thoughts, snapping him back into reality.
“I’ll get the door.” He didn't expect you to be behind it, holding your -and possibly his- daughter’s hand tightly. “Oh, hey.”
He seemed uncomfortable, had you made a mistake in accepting his offer?
“Hi, I couldn't find someone to look after this little monster. I hope your friends won't mind.”
“Not at all, they love kids.” He stared intensely at your daughter, finally noticing those similarities Johnny mentioned before. “Come in.”
He guided you all the way to the backyard, everyone greeting you with a big hug.
“Nice to see you again, y/n.” Johnny murmured, patting your back.
“She’s like a little doll!” Jaehyun squeaked excitedly, sitting your daughter on his lap. “What’s your name, sweetheart?”
“I’m EunHee.” He cooed at her high-pitched voice tone. “Your dimples are pretty.”
“Thank you.”
The boys seemed completely comfortable with your daughter, fighting with Jaehyun, who wouldn't let go of her.
“Can I have a word with you?” Mark came from behind you, making you jolt at his sudden presence.
“Sure.”
He walked you to the kitchen, away from the noisy men outside. He anxiously twisted his hands, trying to find the correct words to demand for the truth.
“What’s wrong?” You asked worriedly, taking a step closer to him.
“Is EunHee mine?” Well, you were definitely not expecting that. You thought that after meeting him at the supermarket, your secret was safe. Apparently, it wasn’t. “By the look on your face, I’m guessing she is.”
He groaned in frustration, rubbing his face with the palms of his hands.
“I’m sorry for keeping it a secret all this years. I won’t force you to step in and take responsibility for her, we can just leave and pretend this never-”
“What are you even talking about? Why wouldn’t I want to take care of my own daughter?” The frown on his face deepened. “Did you know you were pregnant when we broke up?”
Should you tell him the truth?
“I...” He looked at you expectantly.
Of course you should tell him the truth, he deserves it.
“Yes.” His heart dropped, guilt filling every inch of his body. “I didn’t want to hold you back. It would’ve been unfair for me to use that as an excuse to stop you from leaving.”
“So you’re saying I missed three years of my daughter’s childhood because you didn’t want to be selfish?” With every word his voice grew louder, shouting by the end of the sentence and catching the other guests' attention.
“Mark, we should talk about this another day, when we’re alone.” You tried leaving, but his hand clutched your wrist tightly.
“No.” You could admire tears sparkling in his eyes. “I don't want to miss another second of her.”
“Mommy?” Just then, EunHee walked into the kitchen, holding Yuta’s hand. “I heard screaming, are you okay?” Mark nodded at his friend, as if signaling him he could leave.
“Yes, I’m alright, sweetie.” You swung her up in your arms, coming closer to Mark who had the sudden urge to hold his baby. “Are you sure about this? There’s no backing out.” You mouthed, feeling a pinch of relief as he nodded. “Baby, I’d like you to meet someone very special.”
“Who?”
“This is Mark...” She looked at you with her small eyebrows furrowed, she’d already met Mark. “Your dad.”
Mark honestly felt like crying, your daughter smiling excitedly as she urged you to put her down, letting her father hold her close to his chest.
“Mommy said you were lost.” He felt so warm inside.
“I promise not to get lost again, alright?” His lips pressed a kiss into her forehead, already enamored by the cheerful giggles erupting from EunHee.
You observed them with regret. If you'd told Mark you were pregnant before he left, perhaps he wouldn't be on the verge of tears right now, perhaps your daughter wouldn't have had to deal with her classmates’ non-stopping questions about her father.
“Y/n?” Mark called out for you. “C-can we have a family hug?” He moved his hand invitingly, making space for you to join.
You walked into his arms, every negative feeling vanishing as Mark embraced you, both of you trying not to sob.
“What do you want to do now?” He let go of you, using both of his arms to embrace EunHee.
“Make up for the lost time.”

NCT127 falling in love with a s/o with a time-consuming job like a lawyer or a doctor
NCT 127 with an s/o who has a time-consuming job
this is so cute, thanks for requesting! i made this in a format in the ways that the boys might show their care when you’re so busy with your job :) long as hell LOL enjoy!!
brief spoilers for shang-chi if you haven’t watched! i just watched it this week lol it was really good
→ TAEIL would direct conversations to a more neutral stance. it’s not that he wants to talk about himself, but sometimes if you don’t want to talk about your case or patients, he easily slips into conversation about theories or his favourite tv show or your rundown of what groceries to take for the next time you head to the supermarket. just really normal small things that take your mind off the stress, especially at night when you’re laying in bed and just before you’re drifting off to sleep, the two of you would engage in a topic that you both know fairly well about and then you’re usually the first to succumb to sleep. taeil purposely picks out topic he knows will excite you (and bc he knows you’re passionate about it, he reads up on it which allows a well-balanced convo). if you’re rambling on about a topic, then he’ll occasionally play the guitar while laying down, just simple melodies that bring a lot of peace to the room.
“wait- how d’you like this melody?” taeil softly says, changing it instantly when you commented on the previous, discordant one. your nod encourages him to carry on with the plucking of his fingers while you yourself continue with your rambles. “so i’m saying right, it seems totally unfair for him, and you’d think that, right? but all he ever does is whine and moan about his misfortunes, plus his character is so terribly written i kinda feel sorry for-“
the halted melody prompts a sharp turn of your turn to the guitar, which you almost collide with, “what?” taeil only shrugs. “nothin’. just like how passionate you get about the show, it’s cute.” your boyfriend smiles after, ignoring how his words affect you and how your cheeks heat up at it.
→ JOHNNY is one to take you out after your work. it’s not to a super intense, high-energy place like a club or anything, but small little dates that won’t take up much time. eating dinner at a restaurant, walk in the park, small cafe trip, strolling through supermarket to make fun of brand names. if you’re too tired that day, he always finds a way to make your time at home fun. from setting up a small karaoke session, to maybe making a pillow fort, to trying out new cuddling positions, he has everything on his mind. always showing you things to cheer you up if you happen, from memes to funny videos. is low-key down for you to review crime/doctor shows too, just to see how accurate they nail it. your time at home is consuming endless pieces of media until your tummies hurt or you’re sniffling at a movie together.
“hold on- lemme show you this video,” johnny’s hand is outstretched to you once he finds the video and your spoon full of food is left near your mouth. you proceed to watch the low quality video which your boyfriend claims to be the funniest video on earth.
W-HOR? WAH? the girl’s finger in the video traces over the word “who” as she struggles to pronounce it, with presumably her sister in the background prompting her. the repeated pronunciation of the word makes you snort, while the wheezing and the loud NO in the background causes you to fully erupt into laughter. johnny simply smiles at another successful attempt to make you smile.
→ YUTA always has a hand on you when you return home. he brings you into a hug, he guides you by your back, you have to eat with one hand bc he can’t keep his hand off of you. he hopes his little touches will ease your tiredness even by a bit and if you don’t want it, he’ll stop, but it’s yuta’s way of showing he cares without words. busy days with yuta usually involve just sitting in silence as you catch up on a show or a series, or even listening to a song in silence and enjoying each other’s company. he will talk if you want to, but if not that’s fine too, preferring more to stroke your hair in silence and think about how much he loves you. becomes very sappy when you’re in the quiet of your room and generally is very fond of the small pockets of time you get to spend before you two fall asleep. likes that you’re so resolute in your job but can be soft around him behind closed doors.
“you comfortable?” yuta calls out, barely above a whisper as he wraps an arm tighter around you. there’s comfortable ministrations that his does with his fingers, massaging the skin under your pajamas while you snuggle deeper into his chest. humming, you tighten your hold around his top.
“i am, yeah,” you can’t care much for the tv show on the screen now, with empty takeout boxes and tissues littering the coffee table. you feel the gentle kiss of yuta on your head before you’re drifting off to dreamland to a scratchy, 60s jazz song playing through the speakers.
→ TAEYONG would always welcome you back with a table set and food ready, always. he knows that food is the way to someone’s heart and you eating his food always makes him happy and offers to clean-up. lets you shower first if you come back together, puts you before himself very often that sometimes you have to tell him to tone it down because you don’t want him ending up more tired than he already is. following up on this, taeyong would show his love by cooking your lunches for you. when he has the time he makes the effort to put it in a nice bento or box for you to eat. he also does the general chores around the house (assuming the two of you live together) so the bed will be a little less messy when you come back, the floor’s cleaner, the countertops aren’t so cluttered with stuff. even if there’s nothing to clean up, he always these small little things before you come back, and even if you don’t notice it, he sees the way you’re able to navigate the space or when you’re more at ease and it makes him smile.
“do you want to shower first?” taeyong calls out softly, admiring the clean house he’s managed to do up before he went to meet you, “i’ll just hang around until you’re done.”
“you need to prioritise yourself too, yong,” you pout, rubbing a hand up and down his forehead as you toe off your shoes, “how ‘bout we shower together? you did clean the house up pretty nicely.” that earns a grin and a kiss from taeyong, who goes straight the prepare the bath. you chuckle, “he’s already forgotten what i’ve told him.”
→ DOYOUNG supports you silently and listens to your day when you return home and talk about your patient or a case you’re working on. he gives you his own input when he sees fit but other than that he wants you to explain the details. being a doctor and lawyer is crazy and hectic and just wants you to know that you’re appreciated in the workforce. the way he might show his love when caring for a busy s/o like you is when he brings you stuff that you might’ve forgotten like an umbrella or your lunch since you were rushing out of the house earlier. he doesn’t mind going the extra mile to you literally bc it’s a win-win! you get your food, he gets to see you, etc. if not he’ll send someone over to pass it to the receptionist, or he’ll make up for it by meeting you outside the office to apologise and then ask you what you wanna do so he can make it up to you.
“did you manage to get the bento i bought you?” doyoung asks worriedly through the phone, holding up a hand to the staff member who was beckoning him to his photoshoot. “you bought so much!” you exclaim, with a shoulder to your ear, phone perched in between, “thank you doyoung.”
“’m sorry i couldn’t come over to give you your lunch today, angel. i’ll see you after you’re done with work, okay?” you smile at that, shooting a quick reply before you delved into your food.
→ JAEHYUN would honestly serve you once you come back from a busy day tbh. where taeyong does the chores around the house, jaehyun helps by doing the chores on YOU and only you. giving you massages, bringing you dinner on a tray, other unsaid things… and maybe even carrying you from room to room lol he’s relentless and just goes you need to rest, lemme help. big gentleman even when you reject him, doing smaller things like constantly checking up on you, pulling the blanket higher onto your body, cuddling you closer to his body when it’s cold. on top of that jaehyun also one that would meet you at your workplace and take you out like johnny, but those dates are extremely chill. he lets you choose, and when you’re not sure, he takes you on a night picnic at the field or a rooftop, just dinner, but outside bc the view is really nice and he likes the way you look even after a long day of working.
“where should we park our mats?” your head moves from left to right, looking for a suitable spot while you tug on jaehyun’s hand. he hums at it, searching for a spot just like you are. the wind’s blowing gently when you settle near a tree, mat occasionally flying up which you counter with your heavy laptop bag.
“any idea where we can get desserts later?” you call out as a half-joke, not expecting jaehyun to pull up his phone to instantly search for a baskin robbins. “there’s one close-by, wait here for a minute and i’ll go get one for you-“ you laugh before pulling him back down, “don’t worry! we’ll go together, plus i don’t want to be left alone.” jaehyun softly smiles, nodding along as he takes out the food he packed.
→ JUNGWOO has similar intentions like johnny, except he would just wanna stay home. where johnny’s goal is to make you laugh, jungwoo just likes doing things together at home. playing board games, folding the clothes together, making dinner together. it’s not that he doesn’t want to do it, but when he’s given free time he sometimes just likes to laze at home and rest from schedules. he sometimes takes himself out of bed to help before you come back but he’s lazy lolol. loves it when you’re both equally tired and living off 5h of sleep. it’s not romanticising the lack of sleep but your schedules just don’t allow you to sleep equal amounts of hours of sleep. through that, you’re at least able to connect over sleepy talk and droopy smiles while you make the bed or assemble a lego piece or playing video games. if jungwoo’s energetic enough he doesn’t mind doing the crazier activities but he generally prefers those activities done in semi-silence while you exchange jokes and funny videos.
“noooo- no! you only need to move three times, you’re cheating-“ jungwoo pouts and moves back your playing avatar back three spaces on the board game. you purse your lips, not expecting him to see it since he was particularly invested in the movie playing on the screen. knowing it was a shitty film, you tried to talk him out of it, but he insisted. with eyes glued to the screen a few seconds earlier, you took your chance to move down one more space in order to get the benefit on the game board.
“you’ll get to buy a house soon, honey,” jungwoo grins cheekily, laughing even more when he’s able to move four steps, landing on the square that you wanted. now it was your turn to pout as he flips the card for property purchases, happily placing it next to his five other houses. “you’re so annoying!” you say as you fall back on the bean bag, but jungwoo doesn’t believe it when he sees a smile poking out from behind the hands shielding your face..
→ MARK sends you a looooot of texts. your convos with him are just him spamming questions or sending you memes. on every platform LMAO he has tweets sent, ig dm’s are blowing up from the weirdass nct memes that some of the fans make, he uses the official nct tiktok account to send you viral trending videos and he’s like we should try this!!!! and it’s a couple doing acrobatics or some shit. he’s crazy. anyway, he just likes to share things with you, from songs, to playlists, to youtube videos or interesting topics like crime psychology or movie theories etc. he knows that you’re hardly going to see it in your job but he sees the way you react across the room when he sends you stuff so he’s sure that you’ll like it after you get off work. sometimes likes to rickroll you, he knows it’s an old trend/troll thing but the thrill of seeing your frustrated replies always make him laugh out loud. when you’re back home, the both of you review whatever you send each other and then laugh together at them.
“hey, babe, check out this video,” mark says in a text, pasting a twitter link to a video. the video starts out interesting enough, mentioning something about a fun fact with stunning visuals has you wanting to learn more. when the guy in the video starts on his first word, the video immediately changes to rick astley with never gonna give you up. you mutter a small fuck under your breath, gaining a bit of attention from your colleagues during lunch break.
under the table, you flip him off in a picture, which he responds with a big smile of his that’s obviously teasing you for falling for it. you’re going to get it when i get back home!!!!! on a new high, you text the message and set your phone down, already excited for the evening where’d you be able to spend your time with him.
→ HAECHAN is a mix of everything kinda. he’d bring you out after work sometimes and other times likes to stay at home, mainly takes you out to eat after work, but that’s the extent of his after-work-escapades, he doesn’t want to tire you out too much. i think one prominent things he likes to do to is vlog to you, send you videos of what he’s doing on set or at home and just treats your convo like a bank for endless videos. y’know how there’s this video feature in telegram? he sends sooo many of those that you have the time of your life watching those on the ride back home. if you have time, you HAVE to facetime him during your lunch break and tell him how you’re doing and how’s your work coming along. do i have to kick someone’s ass for making you feel uncomfortable? is that patient being creepy again? and you have to explain that haechan, no, that patient is an elderly you cannot beat his ass. he’s like i don’t care, creepy dudes are not excused!!! and you can’t help but smile at that. always wants to be talking to you, close to you. if one day, you’re able to bring him to your job, this man follows you around like a lost puppy and just admires what you do, it’s endearing.
“ah, wait- you know how the sister, xia ling was sent to shut down the ten rings army? well… i just reviewed some of the articles and-“ the video cuts into the next one, haechan’s face zoomed in as he looks straight into the camera, “y’know, she might become a villain one day, i don’t know. maybe i should review some of the comics too?”
“anyway! come look at our set for the music video! it’s sexy, outfits are fire, sets are so good, the choreo this time isn’t too hard, either.” haechan asks the other members to wave as he passes them by, no doubt going his own make-up and hair after the others were already done, “okay, gotta go- love you bye!” you smile at that, texting a quick reply before you open up a video of your own, whispering through the speaker with a promise that you’d see him tonight.

Baby
Tumblr media
au+trope+prompt game: college!au Jaehyun + fake dating + it’s just so hard not to fall in love with you
pairing: jung jaehyun x fem!reader x asshole!yuta
other members as background characters: yuta, mark, johnny, jungwoo
genre: angst, smut
word count: 9,124
warnings: abusive relationship, toxic behaviour
summary: “When Yuta breaks your heart for the millionth time, you meet Jaehyun, freshly broken up and looking for revenge. You decide to start fake dating to get back on your exes, but your plan takes an unexpected turn. You fall in love.”
a/n: I really don’t like putting yuta in a negative light like that it’s just for the fic’s sake! also I literally used the name Naeun as Jaehyun’s ex because I think it’s SUCH a pretty name, NO correlation whatsoever to any korean celebrity named naeun!
_____________________________________
You knew it was wrong.
Looking through your boyfriend’s, Yuta’s, phone while he took a shower, was the arguably the tackiest thing you have ever done.
He was always distant lately, only seeming to make time for a booty call, and at first, you blamed your hectic schedule. Your major was demanding, to say the least, so when Yuta suggested that you replace your dates with some “quality time” at his dorm, you had no objections. You didn’t know that he also meant ignoring your calls, canceling on you at the last minute to meet up with his frat brothers, and keeping your relationship strictly between four walls and two naked bodies.
The thought of him meaning more to you than you meant for him ate you away. It creeped in your mind while you heard the water running from your shower, and lead your fingertips to tap in the password of his phone.
Opening his messaging app, you recognize his best friends’ icons in a group chat consisting of his frat members. You scrolled up, ignoring the latest massages regarding a party that the frat would be throwing in two weeks. You started to feel guilty, not exactly sure what you were looking for, when you saw your name at the screen.
m0rklee[00:10]: @yutassanhyung, i saw your girl today at the supermarket! why didn’t you tell her about the party next Sunday?
you[00:12]: what girl lol  
m0rklee[00:13]: y/n?? i thought you guys were together?
you[00:12]: nahh
fairyteil[00:15]: eyy @yutassan if you’re done with her i know a couple guys who wanna hit it too
you[00:16]: be my guest haha
you[00:16]: don’t get me wrong she was bad when we met but shit is getting kinda stale
tenoutoften[00:17]: aren’t you on your way to her place lol
you[00:17]: hey hey pussy is pussy
Was that all you were to him? Pussy?
Yuta called you special, he called you yours. He didn’t like it when you were talking to other guys. He ripped your lingerie set because he didn’t want anyone else to ever see you in it but him. And then he dared to go around and call you a fling?
You heard the water stop running and knew you didn’t have much time until you had to face him, the thought alone making you sick.
You didn’t bother to lock his phone again, leaving the chat that made you so upset open. Grabbing your keys and a jacket, you left your place and hoped that Yuta would get the message and get the fuck out of there before you came back.
Your legs walked on their own accord, your memory leading you to the only place where you knew you’d find any sort of comfort. When Johnny opened his door, tears were already streaming down your face. He took the open tequila bottle you were holding and pulled you in for a hug. He smelled like weed and beer, and after hearing the “Is that the pizzas?”, you realized that your best friend wasn’t alone.
You quickly wiped your cheeks and fixed your sex hair that Yuta messed up, trying your best to look presentable. Johnny put a hand on your back and lead you to his living room. Jungwoo, your and Johnny’s friend from high school, was sprawled out on the couch, a little disappointed after seeing that you were, in fact, not the pizzas. Next to him, drowning in a bean bag, was Jaehyun. You didn’t really know him very well other than the fact that he took the same major as Johnny, so you felt a little insecure looking as messy as you did right now. His eyes were red, just like the other men’s, but you could swear his eyelashes looked a little damp.
Jungwoo’s words were muffled by the barbecue chips he was munching away.
“Yoo y/n, I didn’t know you were coming!”
You placed the tequila bottle on the table,
“Yeah, Woo, figured you wanted something to drink”
“Move” Johnny murmured to him, but he only stretched and sighed dramatically, shoving a handful of chips in his mouth.
“I don’t need a drink I need food. I’m hungry and I got the munchies”
Johnny grabbed his ankle and with impressive ease, dragged Jungwoo to the floor. The taller man sat on the couch, on the side next to Jaehyun and you followed his lead, letting a grumpy Jungwoo lean his head on your knees. Taking the lit joint from Jaehyun’s fingers, Johnny turned his attention back on you.
“So tell me chica” he said and took a hit, “who do I have to beat up?”
“Yuta”, you grumbled, “I’m ghosting this motherfucker”
You felt the vibrations on your lap when Jungwoo started talking.
“What did he do this time? Didn’t I tell you not to get involved with stupid frat boys?”
You started petting his hair, the softness comforting under your fingers.
“Apparently I’m not ‘bad’ enough for him anymore” you replied, throwing air quotes and rolling your eyes.
“Whaaaaat” Johnny drew out with a cough after taking a particularly deep inhale from the blunt, “you’re like the baddest bitch I know. Even now, that you’re all puffy from crying and smell like his dick”
You hit his shoulder, almost dropping the joint he was passing to Jungwoo, embarrassed that he would say something like that in front of Jaehyun, an almost stranger to you.
“I don’t know, man” Jungwoo started, and you could hear the smile on his face, “when girls cry it’s kinda hot”
You were contemplating how many hairs of his you should rip out of his scalp when the telecom rang, assumably by the pizza delivery man.
“Saved by the bell”, Jungwoo muttered to himself and got up quickly to open the door. While the youngest paid for the pizzas, Johnny held your hand, a bit guilty for his words earlier. He had a mischievous smirk and kept shifting his gaze between you and Jaehyun, who had been sitting in silence ever since you got here, occasionally smiling at your friends’ teasing.
“Fuck Yuta, man. You should find a nice guy to treat you well and fuck you even better y’know?” he started, and patted his buddy roughly on the back, “Like Jae over here”
Your eyes widened and you instinctively glanced at Jaehyun, ears a deep red and a matching shocked look on his face.
You cleared your throat, “No offense, but, like, aren’t you practically married to this girl-uhhh what’s her name again? Naeun?”
To someone who wasn’t listening to your conversation, it must have seemed like you tased him, or brought up a painful childhood memory, or asked him if he’d be willing to lick a lemon after washing his teeth. He looked away from you, and turned his attention to his nails, ripping a cuticle off in deep concentration. His voice was so quiet when he finally spoke, that you barely heard him. “I broke up with her, actually.. Like, three hours ago”
Guilt washed over you in an instant, not knowing that you scratched a wound so fresh. You wanted to apologize and even ask if you should leave the three alone, when Jungwoo grabbed the Tequila bottle and crashed on the couch clumsily between you and Johnny.
“Fuck love!”, he yelled, “let’s get wasted”
_______________________________________
You stared at the empty José Cuervo bottle rising up and down Johnny’s chest with every one of his snores. He was laid out on his couch, his tall height taking up all of its entirety, leaving Jungwoo passed out on the floor. Jaehyun followed your eyes and smiled at Johnny’s sleeping face, mouth open and tongue spilling out.
After the 4th shot, you found out that Jae was a pretty decent guy. He let you rant about Yuta while your friends were busy trying to see who could eat a large pizza by himself the fastest. You told him all about how you never went on dates anymore, how you looked through his phone after having sex, and the text conversation you found earlier tonight. He listened carefully, without judgment, and after smoking some more of Johnny’s staff, he opened up to you about his relationship with Naeun.
Or rather, how he found her fucking his roommate on his own bed.
You always thought of these two as what they call a ‘power couple’. Valedictorian meets basketball all-star, they graduate and have beautiful babies, while all the rest of us mortals can do is admire from afar. You would have never guessed the toxicity, constant cheating and manipulation that Jaehyun was recounting. You bonded over stories about cancelled dates, emotional distancing and feeling like you’re always the one giving but never receiving. If you were being honest, you would have never expected such emotional depth from a college point guard. He drew you in with his gentleness, and you noticed how different he was from Yuta, who engulfed you with his intensity. You also hated how even now, you were still thinking of him.
Just then, you got his third message for the night:
asshole [03:35]:come on baby don’t ignore mee, me and the guys were just messing around
you [03:36]:stop texting me
you [03:38]:we’re done
You locked your phone, upset and angry, and felt Jaehyun sigh.
“I know I’m falling for her stupid games, but I just want to get back at her y’know? Show her what she’s missing, that type of thing”
You knew exactly what he was talking about. During the past hours, you weighted all the possible ways you could make Yuta regret ever taking you for granted.
He was so charming that he could get laid with anyone he wanted (and probably did, even when you were ‘dating’), but even after what he said to Taeil, you knew that he hated the thought of anyone else fucking you. He wanted your body to be his, without having to deal with the commitment that came with that privilege.
You thought about fucking one of his frat buddies, but that would get you from being called ‘Yuta’s girl’ to ‘ΘΨΩ’s cumslut’, and your self esteem couldn’t take that blow.
Jaehyun’s deep voice interrupted your train of thoughts.
“Maybe Johnny’s right”
“Huh? ”
“You should date me”
You blinked at him twice, not knowing what to reply when you saw him wave his hands frantically in front of his face.
“Fake date me! I mean, you should fake date me. Sorry, the weed’s got me a little fucked up”
At first, the idea seemed crazy. Yes, it would make Yuta furious that you were supposedly fucking one of the hottest guys on campus. Yes, Naeun would get mad that she didn’t have Jaehyun’s constant attention that she so craved anymore. Yes, you two might have revealed your deepest insecurities, opened up your hearts to each other all while sharing a bottle of alcohol, but you had never hanged out together without Johnny being present. You had barely hanged out together, period. But wouldn’t that make it even more believable? Two of Johnny’s best friends break up at the same time, meet up at his house and inevitably end up together. You didn’t share the same major, so you wouldn’t have to put up the act too much at college. And with social media, making a fake relationship believable was easier than ever.
asshole [03:42]: fuck you. you think you can find someone better than me?
Drunk and lacking logic, you agreed on the plan, and gave him your number. You had just finished creating the contact on his phone when he suddenly got up and rushed to the bathroom, facing the consequences of the tequila and weed combo.
You passed out on Johnny’s bean bag and when you woke up on Sunday afternoon, Jaehyun was gone.
———————————————————
You didn’t expect him to text you on Monday, thinking that it was intoxication that gave him the idea of fake dating and made it look brilliant. So when he gave you the address to his dorm, to further discuss your ‘operation’ you were surprised, but determined to succeed.
The plan was simple. You would start tagging each other on your instagram stories, to show people that you were spending time alone. He agreed to pick you up from your lecture on Wednesday, your classes coinciding on neighboring buildings. And for you final act, he’d come with you as your plus one for the frat’s party next Sunday. Mark was nice enough to invite you, after Yuta ‘forgot’ to do it instead, and Naeun, being Taeil’s sister, wouldn’t miss it for the world. It was the perfect opportunity to flaunt your new relationship, all while being on the opponent’s part of the field.
You started off innocently enough. After you and Jaehyun finished brainstorming ideas about the ‘operation’ as he insisted on calling it, he suggested you stay for a movie and some Chinese food. His dorm was cozy, a little messy, maybe, but it fitted his boyish charm. He had a nice collection of vinyls, stating that his favorite one was I. by Cigarettes After Sex. You were a bit taken aback by his love for dreampop and rnb, but the more you got to know him, the more it seemed to fit him nicely. On the wall next to his bed hung a display full of all of his sport trophies. He was known for his basketball skills, but you also saw medals for soccer, track, volleyball. Amongst them all was an English certificate and a spelling bee award. You wondered if he ever felt pressure trying to be so perfect all the time.
The movie was terrible, but Jaehyun managed to entertain you by making silly jokes throughout and mocking the actors’ bad acting. It was the first time you ever saw him crack a joke like that and be willing to contort his handsome features. So much better than the dream boy image he was feigning for everyone, but you didn’t know him well enough to tell him. The movie was halfway done when he picked up his phone and opened a camera app through his Instagram.
“Shouldn’t we take a story? Since we’re together anyways?”
You nodded and scooted closer to him. He was a bit hesitant as he positioned the camera to capture your legs that were touching, a scene from the movie playing in the background. It was a cute picture but nothing indicated that the two of you were more than friends. You pressed the X at the top of the screen to discard the picture, and placed his hand on top of your thigh. You turned around just in time to witness his ears turning into a fuschia pink.
“Is that okay?”
He nodded and regained his cool, taking the picture and tagging you with a red heart next to your username.
A couple hours after leaving his place you texted him, asking if Naeun had replied to his story. He said that unfortunately, the only person who batted an eye was Johnny, replying with a “ 👀 👀 👀 “ .
———————————————————
You met up again the next day, at your apartment this time.
He looked nervous being in a place so foreign to him yet so personal to you, so you decided to turn the lights down to help him relax, insisting that you weren’t trying to seduce him or anything. He laughed at your joke but still looked tense, and you thought that maybe he needed some liquid courage to open up.
“Hey Jae. Want a drink?”
It took him 3 beers to finally loosen up and show you his dimpled grin again. You were sitting on the floor, facing each other and feeling comfortable in the ambience of the room. A Spotify playlist was playing in the background so it would fill up the awkward silence but wouldn’t distract you from your conversation.
“Wait wait wait. So you sleep without a pillowcase?”
“Yeah, didn’t you notice it when you came to my place yesterday?”
“I thought you forgot to do your laundry!”
His laugh was resonating and deep and manly. It made his eyes disappear and his face light up, not that it didn’t anyway - the guy could easily be a skin care ambassador, and you made a mental note to ask him about his moisturizer later.
You followed his gaze to one of your walls. Pictures were filling it up, memories of yourself and your siblings, of your friends from home that you missed, of Johnny and Jungwoo. You felt a little insecure then, comparing them to Jaehyun’s countless medals and awards.
“I’m not good at sports like you, so I have nothing else to hang on my wall”, you laughed awkwardly but he shook his head.
“No, I’m actually jealous of you. Everyone always seems to want to be around you”
“Except Yuta”
“Yuta’s an idiot, then. You are way out of his league anyways.”
You felt yourself turning into a blushing mess and looked for a way to break the awkward silence that followed his comment.
“Wanna share another one?” you asked him, shaking the empty beer bottle on your hand and he nodded. You started getting up when you felt him put a hand on your shoulder and pick up the bottles you had finished up from the table himself. He rinsed them off and put them away to the recycling bag next to your sink, the domesticity of the action making you melt. You watched as he stood on his tiptoes to reach a lager from the top drawer of your fridge, revealing a defined set of abs and two cute dimples on his lower back. You ripped your eyes away immediately, like you were caught doing something illegal, and he walked back to his spot next to you. As soon as he sat down, he groaned and threw his head back.
“The bottle opener was on the kitchen counter. I forgot to bring it”
Without saying a word, you took the beer from his hand and placed the cap in your mouth. It was a party trick that your older brother had taught you when you were 15. After finding a stable indentation on your teeth, you manipulate the rough edges of the cap and pop the beer open. You return the glass bottle to Jaehyun, who’s looking at you incredulously.
“Fuck me, that was the hottest thing I’ve ever seen”, he breaths out and you feel your whole face burning up. You opened and closed your mouth a couple times, trying to register that someone like him thought you were hot, when you felt your phone vibrating, saving you from further embarrassing yourself.
Johnny’s picture lit up on the screen and you mentally prepared yourself for the following conversation. You and Jaehyun decided against telling anyone about your relationship being fake. It’s not that your best friend wasn’t reliable, but if you told Johnny you had to tell Jungwoo, and Jungwoo doesn’t know how to keep his mouth shut to save his life.
“John, what’s up”
“Eyy chica what took you so long?”
You looked at Jaehyun who had leaned back against the pillow of your couch and sipped on the beer you would share.
“Yeah sorry I was a little busy”
“Busy.. with Jaehyun?”
You tried to sound as nonchalant as possible, but you were still trying to recover from the previous incident.
“Yeah, he’s here”
“Ohh I see, little y/n can’t get enough of Jae’s slam dunks.. I bet he’s teaching you the bank shot, the opening tip, the double dribble, the fast break, the palming.. he sure is great for a rebound-”
You interrupted him, growing tired of his nonstop basketball innuendos.
“Why did you call me Johnny?”
“Damn, sorry, I just wanted to ask you what you wanted for your birthday”
Shit, you forgot about that.
“Just get me whatever, I don’t care, you know how much I hate celebrating anyways. I’ll get the cake myself, so no surprises”
Jaehyun lifted his brows and waited patiently for your call to end before asking:
“What are we celebrating?”
“It’s my birthday on Friday. I’m going to invite a couple people over and Johnny’s already stressing over it. Don’t worry, though, you don’t have to come”
“How can your boyfriend not come to your birthday party?”
You laugh bitterly.
“Well, it’s not like Yuta came last year. To any of my parties for that matter”
“Well, he must have made up to you somehow? Got you a very special gift or something?”
“If you count eating me out as a gift then yes. It was very rare indeed.”
You took the beer from him and took a sip yourself. You noticed he had his eyes glued on his phone, his expression gloomy.
“Is everything okay?”
He snapped out of it at the sound of your voice and turned his phone screen towards you.
It was Naeun, or rather a post on her instagram account. She had her tongue out in the picture, hugging two guys that were unfamiliar to you. You read the caption.
“One day the loser will realize that the diamond he thinks he’s playing with is actually a rock”
Jaehyun mumbled an apology. I guess he thought that you’d be a bit offended being called a ‘rock’ but you were actually feeling satisfied. Your fake relationship had managed to get her attention, and for Jaehyun’s sake, you wanted to rub it in her face even more.
You opened your camera app and placed your phone on the table next to you. He figured what you wanted to do so he sat up straighter and motioned to his lap. You’d normally be a bit hesitant to sit on him if it wasn’t for the two beers and your determination, that had fired up again due to Naeun’s words. Leaning back a bit, you set up the self-timer and he put his hands on your hips to stabilize you.
You had agreed on turning up the boldness of your pics, so you placed your hands on his neck, right under his jawline. He snaked his hands upwards and wrapped them around your waist, bringing you even closer. His eyes were glossy from the alcohol and he looked at you with an impressive calmness, considering the intimacy of your position. It seemed like he was waiting for something, the ticking of the timer urging you to take things a bit further and he nodded, as if giving you permission. You leaned in, and pressed your lips on the corner of his mouth, like you couldn’t decide on kissing his dimple or his lips.
After hearing the click you climbed down from his lap, and prayed that the photo came out in focus. Your heart couldn’t handle another retake. From the angle of the camera, it seemed like you were a couple in love, sharing a sweet kiss on the lips. You added a cute caption and tagged him, so he could repost it later on his own account.
It hadn’t been 5 minutes before your phone lit up.
yutassan replied to your story: what the fuck?
You smiled triumphantly and showed the message to Jaehyun, who laughed at Yuta’s reaction. He gave you an excuse about some forgotten homework and how it was late and he has to go.
“Remember, I’ll pick you up tomorrow from class, so wait for me”
After he left, you thought about your almost kiss and the dimples of his back for way too long.
——————————————————
You exited the classroom with a growing headache. The lesson today seemed extra boring, and all you could think about was that you had to convince Johnny that it really took just three days for Jaehyun and you to officially start dating.
As promised, the pair waited for you at the end of the hallway, your best friend looking at the two of you expectantly. Jaehyun was a good actor, you thought, as he approached you before you got to reach them, meeting you halfway.
“Hey baby”, he smiled at you, the nickname turning your legs into jelly. He wrapped one arm around your shoulder, and kissed your cheek sweetly, making Johnny coo at the two of you.
“I can’t believe that I hadn’t thought about pairing the two of you together earlier”
He must have thought that the awkward body language and the silence that fell was a sign from you and Jae to leave you alone. He excused himself, saying something about “letting the young lovers swim in the pool of their love”, or something along those lines.
The two of you walked together, following the road to your next class that was just a few buildings away.
“So how has class, baby
You rolled your eyes at the insistent nickname, “you know that Johnny left us, like, 5 minutes ago, right?”
“Let me enjoy itttt”, he whined, “Naeun never let me call her anything like that”
“Why is that?”
He looked at his feet moving and frowned in thought.
“She said I was embarrassing her in front of her friends. I think she just didn’t want other guys to know that we were together”
You felt a pang of sadness and you realized that it always followed any conversation you two had about his and Naeun’s relationship.
“Well then if you call me baby, I can will you honey. Or sugarplum. Or pumpkin pie. Or-“
It was startling how fast Jaehyun pressed you up against the wall. In just a moment, he had put his hands on your waist, burying his face in your hair. You shivered when you felt his breath as he spoke against your neck.
“Yuta’s watching us”
All you could do was stay frozen in place, and listen with wide eyes.
“Huh?”
He chuckled at your response, but he replied patiently.
“Yuta? Your ex? He’s right over there. Figured we should give him a show”
And with that, he kissed you. Everything was happening so fast, that you could barely comprehend that Jaehyun, that was a stranger in the past weekend, was now making out with you at the hall, for everyone to see.
And that included Yuta.
You opened your eyes in the kiss and searched for him, spotting him with his frat buddies. His eyes were piercing through the two of you, and you saw Mark holding him back by the shoulder. The look on his face was priceless.
Jaehyun pulled back and you wrapped your arms around his neck.
“Thank you”, you whispered, “but I need one more favor”
“Anything baby”
“Slap my ass as we walk away”
Sure enough, Jaehyun took your hand and you continue your walk, momentarily stopping to make eye contact with Yuta and give you a little spank. It was something your ex loved doing on the rare occasion you two met up outside of your dorms, no matter how public the setting. You heard Mark yelling something at his ‘Yuta hyung’ and that’s when you thought, your plan just might work.
———————————————————
You didn’t see Jaehyun until your birthday. It was just a small get together, but your place was starting to get a bit crowded as time went by. Johnny had been suffocating you with hugs ever since he got there, reminiscing the time you met as teenagers and calling you an old lady. Jungwoo on the other hand couldn’t stop asking about Jaehyun. You kept making excuses about how he didn’t feel so good today and might not make it. You didn’t expect him to come, of course. Just because you had agreed on fake dating, it didn’t mean that he had any obligation to be present in all your social events. The loving message he left on your Facebook wall was enough to fulfill the purpose of your current relationship.
That is why, when you heard a knock on your door, the last thing you thought you’d see was Jaehyun holding a dozen of red roses.
“Happy birthday baby!”, he exclaimed and gave you a kiss on your cheek,
“I asked Johnny about your favorite flowers, hope we got it right”
Feeling speechless, you took the roses from his hands and inhaled their sweet scent. You were dumbfounded that he actually came, and even brought you a present. You thanked him for coming, and he repeated the same thing he said back at your place, “how could your boyfriend miss your birthday?”
And even you were fooled, momentarily, when he held you by the waist later that night and sang you happy birthday. You blew your candles and all you could wish for was a love like the one Jaehyun was faking for you. He helped you clean up, and was more than willing to socialize with all of your friends. You admired how well he fitted in your social circle, already friends with Johnny and Jungwoo, yet so nice that even people he met for the first time came to love him.
You were sitting on one of your dining chairs, your two best friends already passed out on your couch. They had brought two bottles of vodka and your favorite tequila, but you weren’t in the mood to drink. You couldn’t help but remember the time when you practically begged Yuta to be there on your special day and he still missed it. You were scared that if you got a little drunk you would text him, or worse, call him, his sweet talk bringing you back to him all over again.
The only sounds resonating through your apartment were Jungwoo’s light snoring and a chill Spotify playlist playing from your laptop. A familiar tune came on, and you recognized it being ‘Nothing’s gonna hurt you baby’ by Cigarettes After Sex. You immediately looked at Jaehyun, the only conscious person still at the party other than you. He threw his head back and sighed contently at the sound of his favorite song. You saw him get up and walk over to you, reaching his hand out.
“Will the birthday girl spare me a dance?”
You slow danced in the middle of your living room, ending the night in the sweetest note. Jaehyun always felt so stable, so safe. You wondered how he got himself tangled up in that mess of a relationship with Naeun. Maybe it was the way he treated people with such kindness, void of any prejudice. Maybe he was a little bit like you, and didn’t think he deserved much.
“She’s crazy” you mumble against his chest, his confused hum making you feel the vibration on your face.
“Naeun. She’s crazy for ever cheating on someone like you. You’re perfect”
“I have my flaws”
You thought about how competitive he got when you played beer pong earlier, how his ears get red when he gets embarrassed, how he shows his dimpled smile in apology when he’s late. His love for drinking and how it makes him more honest, his trust in people that must have gotten him hurt many, many times. You liked them all, you loved them all.
“It’s just so hard for someone not to fall in love with you”
———————————————————
And that’s how the days went by with Jaehyun. You met up almost every day, in restaurants for a nice dinner, or hanging out in each other’s dorm. It was so much fun getting to spend time with him, that you sometimes forgot to make your meetup public on social media. You helped him with his math homework, and he helped you dye your hair. You even went to his basketball game, and he dedicated one of his goals to you, following every teen movie cliche.
You felt a little sad how it was all falling to an end. The plan was successful, for the most part. Naeun had asked Jaehyun to meet up later tonight, talk things through. You wished he wouldn’t go back to her, but you knew you had no real say in his love life. Yuta saw that he didn’t own you, that there were people like Jaehyun that were willing to give you what your ex had promised you, but wasn’t able to give. Well, not really, you reminded yourself. Jaehyun was faking it. You shouldn’t let yourself get lost in the fairytale, even if the past two weeks were some of the best of your life. He had proposed that you claim that the reason for your upcoming ‘breakup’ was differences in character, but you decided to stay friends. You were happy that at least, in the midst of all this mess, you met someone like him.
It was Saturday, a day before the frat party. You had invited him over, celebrate the end of your relationship with some pizza and a movie.
The movie was boring, but Jaehyun made you laugh. It reminded you of the first time the two of you met up alone. You had gotten comfy on your couch, sharing popcorn when you noticed. A huge bruise was peeking out from Jaehyun’s tank top, the dark color contrasting against his porcelain skin.
“What the hell?!” you exclaimed and scooted closer to him. You rushed your hands on his chest, your fingers pushing the fabric aside to examine the bruise. You found even more bruises scattered around it, accompanied with scratches that stretched longer than his top could.
“It was from the game the other day”, he tried to excuse, but you weren’t buying it.
“Jae, I was there. You played basketball, not WWE. Now who did this to you?”
He sighed and fidgeted with a loose string on his jeans, clearly uncomfortable.
“When I caught Naeun with my roommate, and broke up with her, she didn’t take it very well”
You kept staring at him, urging him to continue.
“She started calling me names, saying that she’s the best I’ll ever have. That I’m worthless without her, just a social climber trying to mooch off of her popularity”
He motioned on his torso, “When I kicked her out of my place, this happened”
“Is that the first time she acted violent?”
He shook his head. “Pretty much every time she didn’t get her way”
“Jae”, you started, placing your hands on top of his “this is abuse. Have you ever talked to anyone about it?”
“It’s- it’s nothing. It’s embarrassing”
“No it’s not! Abuse is not exclusive to any gender! Guys get affected by it too!”
“It’s embarrassing because I know I can physically stop her but I don’t”
His eyes were starting to water, the sight was heartbreaking. “I sit there frozen and just take it”
“Why?”
“Because part of me believes her. That I’m hopeless without someone like her, dictating what I can and cannot do. I don’t need a shrink to tell me that it’s sick. I have these bruises to remind me”
You were starting to get angry. Angry at that bitch for hurting him, angry at Jaehyun who puts up with it, angry at you, for not seeing past the obvious like everyone else.
“I’m not letting you go see her tonight”
He laughs at you, putting up an invisible barrier between you.
“Not letting me? Wake up y/n! We’re not a real couple, remember? We’re just faking it to satisfy our selfish needs. This whole thing is pointless”
He stormed to the door and you tried to stop him, but he was too riled up for that.
“You’re going to forget about me as soon as this whole circus is over, just like everyone else”
“How can you accuse me like that when you haven’t even let me be a part of your life for real?”
“Because now you’ve met me. Me. With all my ugly, all my fucking bruises. Is it still so hard not to fall in love with me?”
With that, he closed your door with a bang, not even letting you answer that yes, it was impossible not to fall in love with Jung Jaehyun.
———————————————————
History seemed to repeat itself, as you got a text from him the next morning, that you didn’t expect.
jaehyunnie: let’s meet outside of the frat at 10:30, i’ll bring the booze.
And that’s what you did, showing up with your shortest skirt, spotting Jaehyun sitting a few meters from the frat’s entrance. He was laying against the wall, his eyes red, and he gave you the same smile he always did when he saw you, as if your fight yesterday never happened.
“Hey baby” he said and pulled you in for a hug. You couldn’t resist the invitation, and felt yourself melting in his embrace. He smelled like weed and shower gel.
It was nice, how he proclaimed your truce, but you still had to get something off your chest.
“Listen, Jae, about last night, you were right. This whole thing is pointless. We can go home, if you want”
“No baby”, he started and pulled away just enough to look at you. His eyes were droopy but glancing back at you with such care as he moved a strand of hair out of your face, “we’re here to have fun”
You wondered why he was still willing to come to the party with you as your boyfriend. Maybe he wanted to do you one last favor with Yuta, or maybe he wasn’t done indulging in Naeun’s petty games. You looked at his forearms, noticing a few scratches that weren’t there yesterday.
“I’m guessing you and Naeun didn’t make up last night”
He shook his head, and rubbed his hands on your back, keeping your temper down.
“Did you get in a fight?”
“Something like that”
You didn’t know what came over you. It was anger and protectiveness, possessiveness even. You laced your fingers in his locks, letting his head rest against the wall. If Naeun wanted you to speak in her language, then so be it.
You started kissing his neck, on that part on the side that is tender and sensitive. You heard passerbys whistling at the two of you, seemingly getting it on in public. Your licks and sucks weren’t meant for pleasure though, you had a goal and that was to leave a bruise. A statement for Naeun.
You walked in the building hand in hand and followed Jae to the kitchen, where he poured you a drink out of the bottle he brought along. Looking around, you sensed a couple familiar faces staring back at you from the crowd. Taeyong from class, Mark and Ten, and last but not least, Naeun. You downed the drink in one shot and lead Jaehyun to the dance floor.
He put his hands on your hips, and swayed you at the sound of some club song you weren’t familiar with. You ground your ass against him and he hissed, keeping you close against him. A little voice in your head was screaming how this isn’t real, to him this is all pretend, but you ignored it. You wanted her to think that he was yours, that she couldn’t hurt him anymore.
“Why are you doing this to me y/n? Yuta’s not even around”
Jae turned you around, and you put your hands on his shoulders. He looked absolutely breathtaking tonight. You searched his face for a flaw, yet couldn’t find any. You wouldn’t change a single thing on him.
“She’s here” you said venomously.
He buried his face in your neck, inhaling the smell of your hair and trying to ground himself from his high. “I don’t give a fuck about Naeun”
He kissed your ear and your mind fogged up even more.
“She didn’t ask me to meet up yesterday, I did. I wanted to tell her that she and I were done, for good. I thought she wouldn’t be here tonight, but I guess she changed her mind”
What?
“Then why are you here? And why did you let me give you that big ass hickey?”
He stopped nibbling on your ear, and whispered to it instead.
“I’d never miss up on a chance to feel yours”
The bodies dancing next to you, the liquer you had downed a few minutes ago and Jaehyun’s words were getting too much to handle. You felt suffocated, unable to distinguish where reality ended and pretending began with you two.
“Jae, I need a moment, excuse me”
Releasing yourself from his grasp, you made your way to the kitchen. There wasn’t any fresh air, but there was plenty of booze. You poured yourself a shot and as you downed it, you felt another liquid trickling down your top.
You looked up to find out who managed to make this night even worse for you, only to come across the last person you needed to see tonight. Yuta.
“Shit I’m sorry”, he muttered and you avoided eye contact, thinking you’d manage to get away without him realizing it was you. Luck wasn’t on your side tonight.
“Well well well. Long time no see.”
Confidence was dripping from his smile, to his stance, to the way he looked at you. He had dyed his hair your favorite color, his white locks begging to be tugged and played with. To top it all off, he smelled good, so, so good. He smelled dangerous. Comfortable.
You immediately realized that you didn’t have the self control needed to resist him. Turning on your heel, you started to get the hell out of there when he held your wrist, keeping you in place.
“Wait, I’m sorry, you can’t stay like this, you’ll catch a cold”
“Since when are you worried about me?”
“C’mon y/n, please. Come upstairs, I’ll give you a clean shirt. No funny business, I promise”
You hated yourself for this, but you followed him upstairs to his room, like a pray falling right into the hunter’s trap. He closed the door behind him, muting the loud music and you sat on his bed that you were so familiar with. Looking through his closet, he passed you one of his t-shirts, and turned around to let you change with some privacy. It was comical how chivalrous he was acting, considering the unspeakable things you’ve done in here.
“Not like you’ll see something you haven’t seen already”, you murmured and he chuckled, raising his hands.
“Hey, I’m a gentleman. It’s my fault, after all. I have a habit of getting you wet.”
Blushing at his comment, you quickly changed into the clean shirt and felt the bed dip next to you. You thanked him under your breath and started getting up, when you felt him hold you back once again.
“Stay, just a moment. I’ve missed you”
“What do you want?”
“You, baby”
Yuta was the one who said it, but you swore you felt Jaehyun’s voice reverberating through the nickname. Suddenly, it felt like there was no air for you to breathe.
“That’s not happening, Yuta. I’m with Jaehyun now”
He scoffed, “Jaehyun? Naeun’s puppy? Come on now, we both know you can do better than that”
“Don’t talk about him like that”, you bite back, but he doesn’t budge.
“What kind of boyfriend leaves his girl alone in a party like this?” He grips your chin, making you stare at him face to face, impossibly close. “Look at you. Every single guy in this party wants to fuck you. You expect me to be ok with this?”
Yuta lets his other hand glide on your knee, moving up to your thigh slowly. He smiled at how easy it was to focus on him.
“Do you remember how I made you feel? How I reminded you that you’re mine? You were moaning so loud, Mark thought you’d pass out. You loved it.”
You wanted to scream, tell him that this was the past you, that you couldn’t take going back to him once again and get your heart broken one more time, but you felt helpless around him. The warm feeling was only temporary, it would soon evaporate when you face the fact that to him, you are nothing but a play toy, a possession.
And that’s when Jaehyun barged in through the door. His eyes moved frantically from Yuta’s hands on your thighs, to his band tee you wore, to your discarded top on the floor. He quickly turned red, the color spreading from his neck to his face, then landing on his ears.
“What the fuck do you think you’re doing with my girlfriend?”
You instantly got up, following his thought sequence.
“It’s not what it looks like! He spilled his drink on me and gave me a clean shirt and..and..”
“And you decided to sit on his lap to thank him?”, he mocked you and Yuta laughed.
“Calm down, dude. I didn’t make her do anything. Besides, it’s not the first time y/n found her way over here after some disappointing dick”
Jaehyun grabbed him by the collar and pulled him up from the bed, forcing him to stand and face him. You moved between the two, trying to stop the catastrophe that was about to happen. Jae might have more muscle power than Yuta, but if the whole frat ganged up on him he would have to leave this place in a stretcher.
“Jaehyun please, let’s just go. Baby, please”
The nickname was the only thing that brought him out of his rage and made him listen to you. He let go of Yuta and took your hand, dragging you out of the room.
You were two hallways down when you pulled away, forcing him to stop.
“Why did you have to get so mad?”
“Why the fuck did you go back to him?”
“I didn’t! It was just.. so hard for me to tell him no”
You felt your eyes water with how pathetic you sounded. Jaehyun rubbed his hands over his face, groaning in frustration.
“Don’t you understand how much it fucking hurts? To see you with that guy that treats you like shit when I’m right here, willing to give you everything? When I’m in love with you?”
You couldn’t process what he said because in a moment, his mouth was on yours. The kiss was so different than the one you shared at the hallway of your campus. It was passionate, it was rough, and this time, he monopolized your attention. His lips were determined to bruise into yours, leaving you breathless and causing your back to fall against a wall. It was crowded around you, eyes prying into your intimate moment but to you, the only person around was Jaehyun.
“You smell like him”, he growled, sucking on the tender spot under your ear, “makes me wanna fuck his scent off of you”
That was all you needed to hear. You led him to the frat’s guest room, knowing that Taeil always kept a spare key in the lamp next to the door. Unlocking the door seemed like a tour de force with Jaehyun leaving open mouthed kisses on your neck, but you finally managed to stumble inside. You locked the door behind you, continuing your heated kiss, hands roaming around each other’s body.
He was taller than you, so when you felt him grab your ass with such eagerness, you almost lifted off the ground. You palmed him through his jeans, the roughness of his hard on making your panties stick from wetness just a bit more.
“I want to taste you” you managed through kisses, but he just unzipped your skirt as a response, pulling it to the floor in one hasty move. Petting your clit through your underwear, a shiver ran down your spine, spreading goosebumps all over your arms and legs.
“I don’t think I have the patience for that”
He walked you backwards towards the guest bed, taking his pants and shirt off along the way. You sat on the edge of it and admired his godly proportions, when you took notice of the bruises and scratches that led to your fight on Saturday. Suddenly feeling the need to slow down, you started leaving kisses over each and every one of them. You wanted him to trust you, give in to you completely. He had his flaws just like he said, but you wanted all of him. And you wanted him now.
“I need you, now”, you voiced your thoughts and helped him take off his boxers, revealing his hard cock. He was thick and decently long, making your mouth water and your pussy clench.
Towering on top of you, he removed your panties that were embarrassingly damp at this point, and by his smirk, you knew he noticed.
Jaehyun bent your legs next to your torso, making you expose all of you. He licked his lips as he dove into your lower ones, muttering praises about your “pretty pussy”, turning you impossibly wet.
Jung Jaehyun never disappoints, you thought, because the moment you felt the first lap over your sensitive bud, you got a taste of heaven. He alternated between licking and sucking over the spot that turned you into putty against him. You were already unbearably turned on at this point, and the changing pace of his tongue made you lose your mind.
Your pants and moans only seemed to urge him on, and after a few minutes of his careful treatment you felt yourself getting close. He must have sensed it, because when you grabbed the bedpost in an effort to stop shaking, he stood on his knees, and reached for a condom in his wallet.
You didn’t have time to complain about the denial of your orgasm, and started taking Yuta’s shirt off, when he grabbed your hands and placed them back on their previous position on the headboard.
“Don’t”, he said sternly as he lined himself up your entrance, “I want to fuck you in his shirt”
There was no time to think about whether his request was healthy or not, because when you felt him stretch you out, the only thing on your mind was him and his dick.
You let out a deep moan and he took it as a sign to screw himself deeper inside you. Your pussy gushed uncontrollably, filling the room with the lewd sounds of skin slapping against skin. You unlaced your fingers and ran them down his back, ghosting them over the dimples that had affected you so much.
Jaehyun lowered himself, letting his chest touch yours, and you could feel his abs contracting over the fabric of Yuta’s shirt.
“I bet he’s never eaten you out like that, yeah?”
“N-no, never, ahh”
He sat up again, putting your legs over his shoulders and lifted your butt off the mattress, gripping your hips to steady himself before continuing his incredible pace.
“You’re mine, aren’t you baby? Mine to give you everything.”
The position felt divine. He was hitting it incredibly deep, reaching the spot that had you moaning so loud you were thankful for the unbearably loud music of the party. You were sure his fingers would leave a mark over your hipbones but you didn’t care, the pain only accentuating the warm feeling in your belly.
“J-Jae don’t stop - fuck don’t stop I’m gonna cum”
He leaned over, grabbing your face that was contorting in pleasure.
“Look at me when you cum for me”, he demanded, and when you rolled your eyes behind your head, letting go, he let out his first moan for the night.
He kissed your lips sweetly, helping you ride out your high.
“You’re so beautiful, my baby. So, so beautiful”, he praised and you submitted fully to him. He turned your body around, positioning you in all fours, and you wondered where the gentle boy you met at Johnny’s house went. His dick buried in you once again, spreading your juices around and the sensitivity of your previous orgasm made you aware of every single inch.
“So fucking tight”
Jaehyun didn’t go easy on you. He saw how much you liked it, how you were pushing your ass against his cock. He pounded in and out of you with the intention of fucking your thoughts out, and that’s just what he did. When the feeling got too much, and making any sort of noise seemed like a feat, you felt him push your hair back, and start biting on your neck, most definitely leaving a mark.
“I’m gonna cum. Fuck, I’m gonna cum”, he muttered, his voice wavering and you felt him release in the condom inside you.
It took a while for the both of you to regain your breaths. Jaehyun’s chest was heaving up and down as you rest your head on top of it, not brave enough to break the silence.
“I’m sorry”, he finally said and started petting your hair lovingly.
“About what?”
The bed was foreign and small but you both stayed still, wanting to bask a little more in the peacefulness of the moment.
“About getting so possessive, and saying all these things out of jealousy. I acted just like him..”
You kissed his left peck, listening to his heart that was starting to beat in a faster pace.
“Jaehyun, you’re nothing like Yuta. I get how you felt, I feel the same way when I think about you with Naeun”
He took your hand that was resting on his abs and planted a kiss on your palm. Your heart did a flip and you were pressed so close together, he sure must have felt it.
“I should have told you about her sooner. About the fights and how I let her go because of you. I was in denial about my feelings for you because-“
He stopped mid sentence, wary of the way his words would come off to you. Jaehyun was a proud man, but he opened up his heart tonight, admitting he was in love with you. He had already exposed so much of himself that you gave him the time he needed to organize his thoughts.
“Because I was insecure. That you would never like someone like me. That Naeun was right. That you were only interested in playing pretend with me and didn’t mean any of the things you said, and I let myself get carried away in a lie”
You and Jaehyun were two lost souls, trying to break free from the constraints your insecurities built up for you. You didn’t have to succumb to your masochistic tendencies anymore, wasting your time in heartless lovers because now you found him and he found you. Both unable to see any value in themselves, but more that willing to treasure the other. And that was enough for you.
“I’d be honored to be loved by someone like you. Baby.”
