đđšđ„đ„đąđđ |ROTTMNT| (Leo X Male OC)
đđąđłđłđ đđąđ
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adriaen pants lightly, catching up to the others who were ecstatic about the night. It was a tradition that the brothers would celebrate a week of eating pizza whenever there was a full moon. Crazy as it sounds, they havenât lost touched of the tradition, and this was something even Adriaen participated in, not like he had much of a choice really.
One by one, the boys jump across the buildings of rooftops, each singing the phrase âpizza weekâ.
â...pizza week!"
"Pizza week!"
"Pizza week!"
"Pizza week!"
Adriaen didnât join in, instead he just safely landed on the rooftop with the others who all sang in unison. It was strange how not terrible they sounded considering the last time they tried singing it wasâŠ.deafening.
"And scene." Donnie exhales softly, Raph placing his left hand on his hip as he turns to face everyone, âEverybody, set your stomachs to I'm not stopping till I explode mode. It's time we get out pizza on." He announces, which of course had everyone whooping and cheering excitedly.
Adriaen watched with a small smile, sure he wasnât the biggest fan of pizza, but he supposes he can let loose for the week, still he wasnât all that thrilled to be stuffing himself with the food. It can get sickening when eating too much.
"Get ready for the delicious flavours and complex emotions of our first stop! And my personal favourite, Lou Mike Tony's Pizza!" Mikey points down at the pizza restaurant only for said building to sink into the ground, shocking everyone but Mikey had the worst reaction.
âNo!" He wailed, crouching to his knees dramatically as Raph tilted his head in puzzlement, âWhere'd it go?" He inquired as Leo blinked and leaned against his Ćdachi.
âI think it's closed."
"My phone says it's open until ten." Donnie spoke up, checking on his phone as Adriaen hums in thought, it was certainly a strange occurrence but maybe they just didnât hear of any news about the building closing down or something of the sorts.
âWho would do this? Why pizza supreme in the sky? Why do you test us like this?â Mikey yells, looking up at the sky as though some heavenly figure was listening to him, but when he was met with silence, he narrowed his eyes and looks back at the others.
âWhy aren't you guys more upset?"
This caused the turtles to perk up and mutter out feign sadness of the closed restaurant, which Mikey of course noticed. "You didn't like Lou Mike Tony's?" He glared only for Donnie to place a hand on his younger brother shoulder.
"I found a bug once and that's really it for me.â He bluntly noted, watching as Mikey started sobbing, still grieving for his favourite restaurant.
âOkay now that we've all moved on, let's get us some of my favourite Tony Lou's Pizza." Donnie announces, pointing over at the other building that was a few blocks away, but when arriving near the place, it sunk down as well.
Having both Donnie and Mikey yell together at the occurrence.
âNo, no, no, no!â
With a sniffle and teary eyes, Donnie slumped forward, "I only pretended to care when it happened to Mikey's favourite pizza placeâŠbut now that it's happened to me. I hurt." He whimpered out, lips trembling as Mikey reassuringly hugs his older brother.
"Both our favourites were sinkholed. This is the worst pizza week ever!"
Leo peeked over to Adriaen, standing beside him, âIt is weird, isnât it? You think this is just coincidence?â He whispered, receiving a shrug from his crush who placed a hand under his chin. âNo clue. Why donât we just head back to the turtle tank to clear our heads.â He suggested which Donnie perked up at the mention of the tank.
âExcellent idea! Letâs go!â
He ushered everyone off the roof and stroll towards the parked tank on the street, when they entered inside the vehicle, Adriaen took his respective seat and watched as Donnie working hard on a clipboard.
Mikey was under a blanket, gripping it tightly and looking around as though something was going to jump out on him.
Okay, so they arenât okay.
Suddenly Donnie cleared his throat, gaining Raph, Leo and Adriaenâs attention as he presented the conspiracy board.
"To lose one pizza place is New York real estate, but to lose two pizza places is a conspiracy that goes all the way to the top! What do Lou Mike-Tony's and Tony Lou's Pizzeria have in common?" He announces, pointing to Leo who raised his eye at his brother.
"Besides both being pizza places?"
"Exactly! They're both pizza places, but not just any pizza places. Two of our favorite pizza places! And what's the key thing they have in common?!" Donnie added, this fine addressing to Raph who looked just as puzzled as Leo but answered anyways.
âUhâŠbesides having the same name but in different order?"
Donnie nodded, his eye twitching as he started vigorously writing it down on a notepad, âDo you think that's important?!" He interrogated, this time Adriaen spoke up.
âNo."
Donnie huffs and threw the notepad away, âWhatever. It's us." He explained (in his own way of course), slapping his hand on the board. Adriaen leaned in close as he noticed pictures of them, but they all lookedâŠdifferent, as though they were from different universes. âWe are the link between all these places! Ergo, whoever's behind this isn't only after pizza. They're after us. And clearly, we all know that it'sâŠâ He paused before immediately tweaking out, eyes twitching and so did his fingers.
âPizzasaurusâthe evil spawn of the Loch Ness Monster and Bigfoot! It's taking over Pizza Week!"
Adriaen widen his eyes as he nudged Leo to grab hold of his brother to calm him down before he popped a blood vessel, the blue masked turtle immediately doing as silently instructed.
"Pizzasaurus?! We've been over this! None of those things are real." The slider assured, gazing up at Raph who sighs and stood in between the two. âCalm down. Everything's gonna be fine. We just need to eat.â He informed and Adriaen nods, standing up from his seat.
âGreat, cause Iâm actually hungry.â
He walks over to the control panel and pushes down on a button, releasing the shell hogs from the sides of the tank.
âLetâs get to the next place as fast as possible. Time to get our pizza on.â Raph proclaimed, each turtle jumping on the motorcycles. Leo and Donnie had to share a shell hog as well as Mikey and Raph. âUh, hey, how am I supposed to come with you?â He asks, looking pointedly at Donnie who hummed before perking up in realisation. âOh that, donât worry I installed a special motorcycle just for you.â He assures confidently, pressing down on his armband.
Purple bleeps from the technical armband on Donnieâs wrist, no one knew what signal it was indicating for, but they didnât need to wait that long. The sounds of tired zooming closer to the turtles was more than enough to indicate that the signal was for a vehicle to meet them.
Rounding a corner was a sleek black motorcycle, it headed straight for the turtles to where Adriaen subconsciously tensed and waited for impact from the fast-speeding bike, but he felt nothing. Opening his eyes he was flabbergasted at the view of the motorcycle parked right in front of him. Adriaen blinks and touched the handle of the motorcycle, he felt his lips nudge upwards into a small smile.
âWhat? How come Adriaen gets his own bike?â Mikey pouted as Leo stared in awe, âBecause heâs the only one I trust not to purposefully crash.â Donnie blankly admits, making the three close their mouths, all silently agreeing.
Adriaen couldnât help but smile wider, a reaction that was rare itself for others to see. Leo has to force himself to look away, otherwise everyone would see his blushing face. âThanks Don!â He exclaims, grabbing the helmet off the handle and strapping it on. He carefully gets into the bike, feeling it out first. It was comfortable and just felt right for him. He grips the handlebars and revs his engine, turning to the others in which Raph smirks and gestured for Mikey to drive the Shell Hog to the next pizza destination.
And so, the turtles drive off down the street, weaving through traffic and avoiding people as they push on the brakes of their vehicles and look up at the pizza building, Leoâs favourite restaurant.
"Thank the pizza supreme in the sky! My favorite Mike Tony's favorite Lou pizza is still here." Leo cheered, wiping off invisible sweat with a sly smirk.
âSee? Everything's fine!â Raph assured Mikey and Donnie, only to be met with the screams of citizens, the turtles look forward to see people sprint out of the pizzeria as three mutants' step outside.Â
Whoa, what are they?
"These must be the creatures destroying our pizza places." Donnie gasped out, eyes instinctively narrowing, "It's the man! Let's blow this joint before it kills our vibe!" The mutant female in the middle exclaims, as her friend beside her perks up.
"Is that the same as dig? I dig digging! Oh, I'm gonna dig, dig, dig!"
The three spin around, drilling into the ground, âHey!â Raph shouts before Donnie patted Leo on the shoulder, âAfter them!â He orders, to which Leo revs the shell hog and drove after them. Mikey and Adriaen do the same, jumping into the hole with their shell hog and motorcycle, âWhy is this Pizza Week so hard!?" Raph complained, as the turtles drive further into the tunnel and find the mutants causing all of this chaos.
The smaller mutant started digging away into the left as the other two split apart, one going right and the other straight ahead.
"Donnie, Leo, you two guys take these guys on the right, we'll go left." Raph instructed before looking back at Adriaen, âAdriaen youâll goââ He began but was cut off when Adriaen zoomed past him, already knowing what he was going to say as he drives through the tunnel straight ahead to catch up to the third mutant.
Adriaen turned sharp corners whenever this strange mutant would take turns, having to use his feet to stabilise the motorcycle from crashing down. âMan, this one is fast.â He grumbled, revving his engine as he accelerated forward, however he suddenly gasped and pushes down on the brake on the handlebar, skidding to a halt as he almost drove off a cliff.
He pants briefly to calm down, looking around to see he was in a bigger area, a cave like place. Ahead of him he saw pillars attached enthusiasm speakers. âWhat theâŠ?â He mumbled in puzzlement before he jumped slightly when he saw Leo and Donnie appear from the opposite direction.
âOh no! Mike Tonys!" Leo calls out, gasping at the contraption, âShe's going to send a sound wave through the pillar and take out the whole building. Get me close." Donnie added, patting Leo on the shoulder to which the red eared slider drives the shell hog up to a rock wall so Donnie could get off. Donnie swung his hammer but the mutant that Adriaen was chasing dodged right past them.
âRock and Roll! Sound check, punk rock!"
She plays her guitar so loud, the pillar breaks. Adriaen winced at the loud noise but was more alert about the fact that the cave was shaking, âSo long, loser!" The mutant taunted before disappearing and Donnie falls to the ground.
Raph and Mikey had also arrived at some point, but didnât stay long before yelling to Leo and Adriaen. âDrive!â He panicked, Mikey quickly turning the shell hog around to get out before the cave collapses.
Donnie gets back on the shell hog and Leo drives out of the collapsing underground. Adriaen swiftly following behind as the five turtles managed to jump out the hole and swerve away, they look back in time to see Mike Tony's pizzeria was sinking.
âAh! No!â Leo wails out, getting off the shell hog and falling to his knees dramatically at the sight. In unison, Donnie and Mikey also share their shock and anger at the fallen pizzeria place.
"Mikey Tonys! Why did they have to tear everything that's beautiful in the world?" Leo cries, slumping his shoulders down as he shakily stood up and walked towards Adriaen who got off his motorcycle and was leaning against it.
Leo wails dramatically and slumps into Adriaenâs arms, making the latter almost fall down. âLeo!â Adriaen scolds but sighed when he figured there was no point of telling him off tonight, instead he just patted Leo on the head.
âBoys, Pizza week is not just a week. It is a week about family coming together. It's seven days of putting aside what makes us different and coming together as pizza lovers." Raph spoke, doing one of his many âinspirationalâ speeches, but his words only had the others stare blankly at him.
âDoes he think we don't know what a week is." Donnie murmured to the others with a raised eyebrow, unaware that Raph sweated slightly and looked away, but he clears his throat and continued his speech from earlier.
âFive weekdays, and a weekend, that accumulated me eating my favourite pizza in the whole wide crazy world,"
Leo who still clung onto Adriaen gazed over, his whole demeanour changing, âDoes he know that those mutants are on their way to sinkhole Mike and Lou: The Brothers Tony Pizza?" Leo points out which obviously caught Raphaelâs attention.
"Say what now?"
âDidn't you hear those mutants said? Three down one to go?"
Raph waved it off, crossing his arms to show he was calm and collected. âYeah, but they could be talking about anythingâŠ.right?â He looks between the others as he then started freaking out.
âRight?!â
Adriaen breathes out and pries Leo off him before jumping on his motorcycle, âWhat are we waiting for then?â He asked, waiting for the others to get back on their shell hogs before they drove off to the last pizzeria place. Upon arrival, the pizza place that was Raphâs favourite was still standing but just to be on the safe side, Donnie suggested that they somehow close down the restaurant for a bit to make sure the three mutants wouldnât get to it first and not harm people.
So, they put on their hazmat suits that they wore back at the Nexus Hotel and barged right in.Â
"This is a random health inspection. Everybody out!" Leo announces, but the citizens didnât seem to care and continued on eating. The owner of the building, Chef Mike, came over, looking confused.
âHealth inspection?"
Raph took the lead and clears his throat. "Sir, we've received reports that, uhâŠâ He pauses when he stared at Chef Mike who awaited to what Raphael had to say. But Raph just couldnât do it, turning away, âI can't do it, guys. It'll ruin him." He frowns to which Mikey smiles softly and gently grabs the paper from Raph.
"I got it. I'll be Dr. Delicate Touch.â
Oh boy, not Dr. Delicate TouchâŠ
Mikey steps forward to Chef Mike and clears his throat. He out of the blue shows the paper to Chef Mike and without hesitating yelled at him.Â
âYou got bugs!"
Upon hearing the sentence, the humans inside scream and run out the restaurant as Chef Mike looked absolutely horrified about the fake paper. âBugs? This is the first time in 25 years I've ever had any kind of bug." He stated, but Leo wasted no time and shoves the chef outside his own restaurant.
"Okay, fine, we're all having a bad day. Get over it."
Leo walks back in, Adriaen lightly glared at him and punched Leo on the arm, âOw! What?â Leo tilts his head, rubbing the sore spot, but Adriaen didnât explain himself, shaking his head and crossing his arms.
"I just want you to know, sir, that we'll have your place open so you can get back to serving high-quality pies inââ Raph was immediately interrupted when Mikey slams the door, leaving the turtles alone in the restaurant. "Enough! Let's get back to exterminating." Mikey grins before he started to laugh maniacally, to which Donnie watched and turns to Leo and Adriaen.
âShould we be worried about him?"
Adriaen side eyes the younger brother of the turtles and shrugs his shoulders, looking back to Donnie.
"Probably."
âThey're all gonna pay." Mikey hisses out. Not wanting to see any more of crazy Mikey, Leo tells Donnie that the three mutants should already be underground putting the speaker around a pillar that supported this building to stay standing.
Donnie agrees and activates his technological armband on his wrist. The drill that Donnie presented to everyone awhile back appears from the ground. The turtles take off their hazmat suits and jump down the hole that Donnieâs drill created. They held on tight to the drill as it directed them to where the three mutants were at currently, bursting through the wall they take out their weapons and land on the ground.
"Can we fight them with a drill?" Raph eagerly asked but Donnie laughed and shook his head, âNo, it would be far too effective.â He smirks before pointing his bĆ at the three digging mutants.
âYour personal vendetta against us is over!"
The mutant in the middle that Adriaen assumed was the leader of the trio, tilted her head. âWhat are you idiots talking about? We've never met you before today." She points out, which Adriaen hums in agreement.
âSheâs not wrong about that.â
Raph however rolls his eyes, âSure. Attack!" He orders as he and the other jump into action, the larger of the mutants' steps in front, she was intimidating to say the least as the turtles scream and run away, Adriaen would have been able to push forward if it werenât for Leo dragging him away.
Mikey was targeted by the other mutant, the one who just kept repeating the word âdigâ over and over that it would give anyone a headache. She keeps popping up from each hole.
"Stop saying that!" Mikey whines out as Donnie managed to get to the leader, using his tech bĆ to swipe at her.
âAlright, why are you ruining pizza week?"
"Who cares about pizza? We're an underappreciated band."
"That hates pizza!"
The mutant gave a little concerned and bewildered expression to Donnie about his fascination of pizza, âWhy are you focused on the pizza? We're taking out the Pillars." She informs, catching Donatelloâs attention.
âPillars?"
âOnce we take out this last support pillar, the Kaufman Coliseum will sink down, giving us a captive audience to rock out for!"
At this, everyone stops fighting, turning to look at each other. âTime out. So, you're saying this isn't a multi-level conspiracy, that may or may not involve the mayor or the illuminati or send us around taking down our four favourite pizza places?!" Raph exclaims in utter shock that this was all a somewhat misunderstanding.
"No. We don't even like pizza, dude."
"Unless pizza's for digging."
Adriaen groans a bit at the constant word of âdigâ being said in each sentence from this smaller mutant. "So, you're saying that not only did you destroy everything I love in the world, but you didn't even have the common courtesy to know you were doing it?!" Mikey seethes, no doubt about to pounce onto the mutants to show his wrath.
But fortunately, Raphael grabs a hold of Mikey, not fazed by his younger brother who struggles in his grasp.Â
Adriaen steps forward, crossing his arms comfortably and eyeing the trio. "So, you guys just wanna play a gig?" He questions to which the smaller mutant nods in eagerness.
âYes, and gig rhymes with dig!"
âIâm about to dig you into a graveââ
Leo had to grab Adriaen by his wrist and pull him away so that he could calm down, giving him a small smile as he pats his shoulder.
Eventually though, this all worked out as everyone had stopped fighting and no pizza place had to be sunk down. The chefs of the pizzeriaâs all came together to open up one big restaurant, and the mutants that introduced themselves as the band Digg were hired to sing their songs in the pizza pallor as the humans just figured they were in costumes.
The boys stay outside, eating pizza on the rooftops after the whole ordeal. For once Adriaen didnât even mind eating pizza for the week, he was just too hungry to care. âAnd thatâs how for one week, or five weekdays and two weekends' days, Pizza week was saved by me." Raph spoke up, as though he was speaking to someone, Leo gazed at his older brother.
"Who are you talking to?â
Raphael didnât respond and continued to eat the pizza in his hand, the turtles unaware of a giant pizza destroying the city blocks behind them. Or if they did, they were on a break.
Either way, after everyone had their full, they headed on back home, it was late, and it seemed pretty much everyone was exhausted after the week they went through. âGood night, guys.â Raph yawns, heading to his room as the others murmured their own good nights and went their separate ways. When Adriaen collapsed down onto his bed, he closed his eyes, he was too tired to even take off his gear, he just wanted to sleep.
Of course, the moment he closed his eyes and drifted off to slumber, he was back in that dark, lonely room with only the white door taunting him.

Next Life | kth (m)
â summary:Â Although you and Taehyung didnât believe in first and second lives, you both wished youâd find each other in the next life as you both looked at the sky that night.
â pairing: husband!tae x wife!reader
â genre: angst, smut.
â warning: sexual content, angst
â word count: 4k
âa/n: Finally this is done. Thank you so much @jkiddingjeon for beta-ing the fic, it meant A LOT. I really love this fic and I hope you enjoy it too. ngl it's a pretty heartbreaking fic so get ready for some ANGST.
Love. Hate.Â
Itâs always adjacent to each other. Something thatâs always there when the other is present. It also changes people. How it makes people go from loving someone and being best friends with someone to trying everything they can to pull them down, to take them out.Â
Youâd say you can relate to it. In more ways than one. You had seen your fair share of people going from loving them unconditionally to talking shit about them the next day. Divorce was one of them. All the promises and vows made of staying through health and sickness, through good and bad, thrown out of the window.Â
You thought of it as one of the most heartbreaking things and now you were here. Doing the exact thing as you watched the clock tick by, thinking of ways and excuses to get you out of this marriage. This marriage that ended everything. It hadnât always been like this. No, you were in love. You were so madly in love that if anyone had told you youâd stand in this place today youâd not believe it.Â
You are still in love. So madly in love but the difference being you want it to end. Maybe that way youâd find each other again.
As time went by, you stood by the railing of your balcony. The bright light of the city shined underneath you as you thought Tomorrow would be it. The end of what once was seen as a beautiful love story by not only you but by many others. The final chapter.
Maybe love and hate stood adjacent to each other but you could never hate him.Â
And so you stood there, taking it all in, you thought about where it went wrong.
7 months ago
âI canât believe you think that!â you shouted, hands up in the air as you walked back into the apartment, him following you behind.Â
âWell I wouldnât if you kept your distance!â he said, raising his voice.
âOh my god. One hug. It was one hug. And that too because he was leaving.âÂ
âIt didnât look like one,â he argued back.Â
âAre you freaking kidding me right now? Nothing happened, you know that.â you said trying to calm yourself down.Â
âStop trying to argue with me all the fucking time.â he bit back.Â
âOh, I am arguing? You were the one who started it.â You took long strides towards him.Â
âYou were the one who accused his wife of cheating although you have no proof whatsoeverâ you gritted through your teeth as your finger poked his chest.Â
He let out a loud groan as you run your hands through your hair. âYou know what, Taehyung? You can stay here. Iâm leaving.â and with that you grabbed your purse and keys and strode out the door, slamming it behind.Â
Kim Taehyung.Â
The love of your life. You met him in college. As clichĂ©Â as it sounds, he was the heartthrob with his extremely good looks and his unbelievable flirting skills. You werenât supposed to know him at all if you thought about it.Â
Your college held its annual fest, and you were the head of the management. You had stumbled across him when he had come to drop off some supplies instead of his best friend. You got into a small quarrel when he commented on how you were the head of the management when you were only a freshman and questioned your ability to pull the entire thing off when it was only three days from the fest and not even one percent of anything was done.
You got into a bet with him as you made him promise you that heâd treat you to something of your choice if you pulled it off. Nevertheless, you pulled the entire thing off within the next two days, proving him wrong. As a promise, he treated you to something really expensive(of course you had picked it) and then swore to never question your ability. Â
You started seeing more of him, with his surprise visits to your class (which usually ended up with girls surrounding you asking how you knew him) or him coming to your seat in the cafeteria just to give you some new juice he got for you. Sometimes heâd ask you to come to one of his basketball matches and then took you to dinner afterward.Â
You felt your heartbeat increasing every time you saw him or heard his name in fact, and before you knew it, you were confessing to him, putting your heart on the line.Â
The day you confessed, you ran out before he could even reply. Too scared to be rejected. But Taehyung did something youâd never expect. He brought you to an amusement park, took you to dinner, and then confessed to you with thousands of chocolate (literally).Â
You both had your fair share of arguments and then makeup sex. Mind-blowing sex to be exact.Â
Your relationship with Taehyung was built on trust. Heâd be there waiting for you every time you came home late and vice versa. Youâd be at all of his games. Youâd go to every party, hang out with your friends.
Once he graduated, heâd wait to pick you up every day. Every day youâd go to your favorite cafĂ©, with your friends, complete assignments and projects, argue about who won the last UNO game, girls vs boys.Â
He spent every hour with you when you struggled with your dream job and you did the same. When you finally did get the job, he asked you to marry him. You nodded then and there. Tears escaped, phone calls were made. Everyone came to the engagement party and then the wedding and you truly thought everything you ever wanted was there. Your family, your friends, his friends, him.Â
But what you didnât know then was what followed after. Just like promises are made, they are broken. Trust is broken and the bond doesnât stay.Â
The first two years were bliss. You went to Paris for your honeymoon and then to New York. Yes, New York for your honeymoon. You experienced the love in Paris and the rush in New York.Â
You spent most of the days in Paris, going to spots of attractions, enjoying the food in the cafĂ©, walking around the streets drunk and completely in love, having late night sex, morning sex, just lots of sex to be exact.Â
But in New York, you spent your days going to Times Square, Bars, and Pubs had âtheâ New York pizza and cheesecakes and hotdogs and whatnot. Went shopping and sightseeing. Roamed around the streets at night, met so many people.
You believed you had found what you had been looking for all your life. Someone to go to romantic dinners and the craziest parties with. Â
But what followed was something you didnât think would happen. Every marriage has its ups and downs. You had to. But then it started.
Every party would become an excuse to start arguments, every late night at work would lead to assumptions. At first, you thought it would be fine. Talking would help, it was always the key for the both of you but lately, every time you spoke or tried to solve the issues, it would end in huge fights, sometimes followed by sex, or even if not sex, youâd stop talking to each other and then one day pretend nothing happened.Â
Although in heels you walked around the park near your apartment. âIt will be fineâ you told yourself as you tried not to break down. Deciding it would not be a good idea to go anywhere at that hour, you sat by a bench.
The cold wind hit you as a shiver ran down your body, the thin wine slip dress doing nothing to stop it. The screen of your phone lit up as you saw multiple texts from Taehyung. A part of you was happy that he cared enough to text you. You clicked on his profile as a series of texts came up.
Tae: where are you?
Tae: come on Y/N, donât be stupid.Â
Tae: itâs really late. where the fuck are you?
Tae: baby, youâre scaring me.Â
Sighing you got up and made your way out of the park. Since you lived in a complex, it didnât take you too long to walk. As you opened the keys, you saw Taehyung pacing around the living room. âWhere are my keys?â he muttered to himself, not noticing your presence.Â
A clinking sound made Taehyung look up as the keys hit the ceramic bowl on the kitchen top. âWhere were you?â he asked, trying to control his anger. You didnât answer him as you took off the heels, internally sighing when the cold floor hit your barefoot. âAre you seriously gonna ignore me? I asked where the fuck were you?â he pulled you by your wrists stopping you from going further. âDonât do this.â you gritted through your teeth as you harshly pulled away before going inside your shared bedroom.Â
You slipped out of the dress and you got inside the shower, the hot water touching your skin as you stood there. No matter how much you tried not to think about it, you always went back. Where did it go wrong?Â
You changed into shorts and one of Taehyungâs oversized shirts as it reached mid-thigh. Getting inside the covers, you relaxed, the cool sensation of your bedsheet and covers calming you somehow as you turned towards the glass wall.Â
You heard a sigh as Taehyung got inside the room. He got inside the covers and stared at your back as you tried to keep calm. You felt an arm wrap around your waist as he pulled you closer, back colliding with his chest, nuzzling his face at the crook of your neck. âIâm sorry. I shouldnât have said that.â his voice came muffled as you felt the vibrations on your neck.Â
âI really am.â he said, taking a deep breath pulling you closer if that was possible. You sighed, turning to him.Â
âI felt really cheap, you knowâ you said, hands reaching to cup his face. âIâm so sorry baby.â he sighed, closing his eyes as you ran your hand through his hair. âI know.âÂ
He pressed a kiss on your lips as you pulled him closer, hands wrapping around his neck. You sighed into the kiss as his lips trailed down towards your collarbone, sucking and nipping then. Soon enough he was inside you as he went on an animalistic pace. âDo you think he can fuck you like this?â he growled. You ignored him as you knew you were close, focusing on your climax. You came within the next few minutes as he rubbed your clit while thrusting.
Later on, he lapped up the spilled contents lazily as you screamed his name, your cries stroking his ego.
He wrapped an arm around your naked waist as he fell asleep on his stomach, head on your chest, legs tangled over your naked ones. You stroked his hair as you stared at the ceiling, his words ringing in your ear âDo you think he can fuck you like this?â
A small realization crept inside your head. He was never gonna trust you.
He stirred in his sleep, pulling you closer, he pressed an open-mouth kiss above the swell of your breast in his sleep. Releasing a long sigh, you kissed his head, quickly pushing the thought aside.Â
That was the first mistake.Â
âI love you so much,â you said.Â
You pulled the robe over your body tightly, a coffee cup in your hand. Picking up your phone you looked at the time. 3:08 am it read. The city still buzzed with life. The cold breeze hit your face soothingly as you closed your eyes. Only if you had done something before, things wouldnât have gone wrong.Â

Your phone buzzed as you frustratedly rubbed your face. You dreaded picking up the call, not wanting to have to shout again. Things had been gradually worsening between you and Taehyung. Late-night fights, coming home drunk, not talking to each other for weeks had become a common thing nowadays and no matter how hard you tried, no matter how many times you both tried to co-operate, you didnât seem to escape it.
âYou should talk to him.â Ae-ra said, handing you a cup of tea.Â
Tea.Â
You never liked tea. You were more of a coffee person. You preferred the rush, the adrenaline. But nowadays, you were tired. Tired of doing the same thing over and over again. Having the same quarrels and fights over and over again. Tea seemed to calm you.Â
âAnd then what? Get into another fight?âÂ
âYou know what I mean, babe.â She said as she rubbed your arm soothingly.
âMaybe later. I cannot deal with him now.â you sipped on the cup.
What you didnât know was that âlaterâ would come that fast. You went back to your apartment to get more of your clothes. You planned on going at night, when he was most probably out with his friends or whoever kept him busy nowadays. But to your surprise, he was there.Â
You opened the main door, using the key you had with you to meet with his laying figure on the couch. His head shot up at the sound of the door, eyes meeting each other. He looked drained, hair messy and bags under his eyes. You cursed under your breath, debating if you should just go back to Ae-raâs place and come later for your clothes.Â
âLook whoâs here.â he scoffed as he got up from the couch.
Deciding on the former, you walked past him without taking another glance, into your shared bedroom. Taking a bag out, you shoved as many clothes as possible wanting to stay away from this mess. âAre you gonna ignore me now?â you heard him as he entered the room.Â
You zipped up the chain as you walked towards the door wanting to leave. He grabbed your hand before you could go any further. He felt so scared when he saw you packing your stuff, so much that it suffocated him. âFucking answer me.â his voice raised as he stared at you.Â
Taehyungâs eyes softened as he saw the dry tears on your cheeks and he wanted nothing more than to pull you close and never let go. To talk to you and tell you it would be fine, that you would figure it out together.Â
As he saw your tired eyes, glossy as you tried to keep your composure, he wanted to kiss you so badly and keep you tucked away from every bad thing; ever, even himself if he was bad for you.
And maybe he would have done that. Hugged you and kissed you. Kept you in his arms if you didnât start talking.Â
âLeave me the fuck alone.â you pulled away harshly. âYou know what? Yes, I am ignoring you and gladly will.âÂ
âWhat is wrong with you? You cannot just come and go like that.â he said, hands gesturing to your bag.
âI can and I will. You cannot stop meâ you clarified.
â Yes, I can. I am your husband for godâs sake.â a frustrated tone laced his words.
âHusband?â you scoffed. âWhen were you a good husband? Where did this go when I stayed up till dawn every day waiting for you?âÂ
âYou know how hectic things have been at work.â he looked at you knowingly.Â
âThat doesnât mean youâd stop spending time with me!â you yelled.
You knew you were being unreasonable. Things really were hectic at work for him. But you couldnât help but feel lonely when you came home after a long day to an empty and cold apartment and then stayed up every day almost all night for your husband. You felt so neglected when heâd come home and go to sleep straight away without saying anything.Â
All the doubts about your marriage slowly were coming true and you wanted nothing more than to prove it wrong. But talking about it led to arguments with Taehyung. So you decided to stay away from home, so that you didnât have to think about it, to begin with.Â
That was the second mistake.Â
âYou are going nowhere.â Taehyung took the bag from your hand and walked towards the bed. âYouâll stay at home.â
âHome?â a humorless chuckle left your throat. âI will go anywhere I want, but home.âÂ
âI mean it Y/N. Stop acting like a kid. Go wash up and come to bed.â he sighed.Â
âIâm not stayingâ you concluded, ready to leave your stuff behind as you turned.Â
You felt a pair of hands wrap around your waist as he stuffed his face in the junction of your neck and shoulder. A tear left your eyes, followed by streams, and for some reason, your heart broke, it felt like he was pulling you apart from inside.Â
You felt his warm breath as he mumbled something. He pressed you towards him as you silently cried.Â
Later that night, as he fucked you slowly, something different than his usual dominating aura, your heart ached, but you couldnât pinpoint why. He kissed you ever so passionately, that you cried.Â
Something told you that it would be over soon, so you hugged him as close as you could when he slept. You cried as he hugged you in his sleep like you would go away if he didnât have you in his arms.Â
âI love you so much,â he mumbled in his sleep.
Thatâs when you realized how bad the entire situation was. How bad you were for him just like he was for you. How bad this marriage was.Â
And what followed after confirmed everything you ever doubted.Â
2 months ago
âYou think I didnât see you?â you yelled.Â
âWhat are you talking about?â he looked curious.Â
âOh sure, play the good guy, make me look bad, why donât you?â you scoffed.
âI have no idea what you are talking about.â he repeated. âHow would you? You thought you were good enough to keep it away from me.â you said. His eyebrows crashed as he tried to understand. âI saw you with her. Maybe thatâs why you were always late. You were too busy fucking her.â a bitterness stayed in your mouth. âAre you kidding me?â he said as he raked his fingers through his hair.Â
âYou are accusing me of cheating, Y/N? You?â he scoffed. âDonât think I forgot about the party.âÂ
âOh my god. You were never going to believe me, were you?â you looked at him with a glint in your eyes.Â
âYou are being paranoid Y/N,â he said calmly.Â
âYou know what? Maybe I will go to him. The guy you accused me of cheating. Maybe I will let him fuck me. Clear all your doubts and make it true!â you were screaming now.Â
âI canât do this anymore,â he said, voice so calm maybe you would have been scared if you were thinking straight.Â
âNeither can I.â you said as you walked out of the house.Â
The next day when you woke up, you felt bad for yelling at him. So you decided to go back and talk to him. And maybe you would have if fate didnât have anything else planned.Â
As you walked into the house, you saw a man sitting on your couch, Taehyung at his side as paper lay in front of him. The man looked at you briefly before turning back to Taehyung. âThank you for coming on such short notice, Mr. Lee.â he said as he shook hands with the man. The man nodded.Â
Before leaving, he looked at you, âSee you in court.âÂ
You furrowed your brows before realization hit you. âTae, what did he mean by that?âÂ
He kept quiet as he gathered the papers. âBaby, whatâs wrong? Talk to me.â you tried again. Taehyung got up as he handed you the papers, then went to the bedroom. You stared at them as you couldnât process anything.Â
You cannot get divorced. You cannot live without him. Â
You walked inside the room as you saw him looking out. âTae, we can talk, right? You donât mean this.â your voice shook.Â
Walking up to him you wrapped your arms around his, face buried in his back as you mumbled âThis is a joke, right?âÂ
You heard his sigh before he turned to you, eyes glossy. âWe canât keep doing this.â
âWe wonât. Weâll figure it out. We donât have to do this.â you went on.Â
âY/N-â
âNo, no, you donât understand. You are out of your mind. We canât get divorced.â
âIâm sorry, but I cannot do this anymore.â he said,
You looked at him. âWhy are you saying it as if it is all my fault?âÂ
âI donât mean that.â
âYou absolutely mean that. Your face says it all.â you gestured toward him. âOh. You really are gonna do this?â you said as he rubbed his face.Â
âWell, fuck you, Kim Taehyung. You can do whatever you want. You can blame me all you want but you and I both know the minute I walk out, you are going to regret this.âÂ
âYou can keep going for my heart and put all this on me, but you will miss me to your bone the minute this is over.â you said as you stormed off.Â
That night, you went back to Ae-raâs place. You screamed at the sky pretending it was him while he stayed awake that night as he looked at the sky. âIâm so sorry Y/N. I love you so muchâ he said, tears freely falling.
It really was over. All your doubts came true. Your marriage ended. Maybe it was for the better. âYouâre being paranoidâ he said. He was right. You became paranoid.
You wiped the single tear and looked at the sky, soft light spread across as the birds sang. 5:00 am
You picked out the attire you were going to wear to the court. Your phone buzzed as you picked it up. It was Ae-ra. Itâs gonna be okay. Youâll get through it. she said.
You went to the court that day. You watched him as he entered the room, a black tux hugging his frame. He had become more buff than he was the last time you saw him two months ago. As he ran his fingers through his hair, his shoulder blades flexed. The same shoulder blades that had your nail marks reminding the night before from every morning youâve spent together. You smiled at that memory.Â
Soon the judge walked in and the process went on.Â
At one point in your relationship with him, assuming was something you both picked up. Long gone was the trust which was the key in your relationship. Maybe it was for the better. You both were paranoid; assumptions feeding more into it.Â
But what you both gradually became, was bad for each other. Not at the beginning of your relationship, but somewhere in the middle, it went out of hand. Maybe if you spoke to each other more, maybe if you hadnât pushed your thoughts the first day it came, then maybe you wouldnât be here. But everything happens for a reason.Â
Kim Taehyung was the heartthrob of the campus. Kim Taehyung was the first person you confessed you loved. He was the first person who heard âI love youâ from you. He was your first love.Â
As the saying goes, some people are in our lives, just to teach us a lesson. Good and Bad. Kim Taehyung was that for you. You were still in love with him. Distance makes the heart grow fonder and yours did. You loved him more than you did before. And so maybe letting him go was easy. You were bad for him and he was bad for you. But that didnât stop you from loving him.
And that didnât stop him from loving you as you sat at the courthouse, as he looked at your face when it was over, as he lay in his bed alone that night.
Maybe you werenât meant to be. Or maybe you were, but you didnât know-how. But it was fine. And maybe as time goes by, it would hurt less.Â
Although you and Taehyung didnât believe in first and second lives, you both wished youâd find each other in the next life as you both looked at the sky that night.Â

Wanda Maximoff x Reader - Road to Healing
Gif is not mine.
Summary:Â The one where you and Wanda travel around the country while grieving together. / Inspired by road trip-themed movies.
Read Complete work on AO3 too.
Warnings> Explicit language (cursing) , mentions of death, grieve and panic attacks. Mainly fluff and sad.
Words:Â 4.299K (Oneshot)
When Thanos won, you didn't have time to grieve. Immediately on the battlefield, you were responsible for helping to heal the wounded. And you were exhausted when it was over.
And then S.H.I.E.L.D. was triggered, and you knew they would take Vision if they found him. You thought Wanda wouldn't want that. And you ignored the intense pain you felt at the thought of her, and repeated to yourself that you wouldn't want that either. So you used Tony's technology to bring Vision's body back to the Avengers compound. And then you told them that Thanos had destroyed him along with the jewel, and that's what they wrote in their reports.
When you finally returned home, you only slept after you had organized a memorial for him. You didn't ask your colleagues to participate. The remaining avengers just seemed empty. So you left them alone.
Your hands trembled when you touched the knob of Wanda's room. You were looking for a picture of Vis. You found it eventually. When you left the room, your shirt was wet with your tears.
You thought Vision would like a view of the sea. So you left his body in a black wooden coffin, and buried it on the edge of the hill a few meters from the exit of the complex. You figured that Vision wasn't religious, so you just used the 3D printer to create a little iron plate, and stuck it against the ground.Â
You could not sleep that night. And the next. When you finally did, your panic attacks started. But the emergency calls started coming in, and you knew you had no time for grief. The world needed you now.
You learned to deal with the panic, but the nightmares continued. So you accepted more assignments, until you were too exhausted to dream. And then you got used to it.Â
And like the snap of a finger, five years passed.Â
When you defeated Thanos, you fell to your knees. You couldn't find Natasha. And then you couldn't breathe. You realize what was happening, you knew they were back. But you can't go through this again. Because the world needs you again. And then you calm down, and you stand up. And then you are walking.
Steve doesn't come back. You think you hear Bucky crying in his room. But you don't say anything, because he doesn't like to talk about it.Â
You take Wanda to the tomb of Vision two days before Tony's funeral. She sobs against you as you hug her, your own tears preventing you from seeing your surroundings clearly. You haven't left her side since.
After Tony's funeral is over, you destroy the items in your room with a bat. When you fall to the ground, Wanda sits beside you quietly, and holds your hand. She doesn't mind you shouting Nat's name along with your sobs.
- I can't stay here anymore. - You tell her the next night, while you are in your room. - I can't breathe in this place. - You confess with tears on your face. - I feel like I'm going to die.Â
Wanda intertwines your hands.Â
- Let's leave then.
You let out a long sigh, trying to control your tears. And then you nod.
Your mood improves considerably once you are out of the compound. You don't think about Nat, or Tony, or Steve, because if you do, your hands start to shake. But you think about healing. You think about being there for your best friend.Â
And then you decide to live. And you hold both of Wanda's hands when you tell her that you are going to travel. Travel to all the places she hasn't visited in the United States.
You want to remember that there are still things to live for. You want Nat to be proud of you.
When Wanda nods in agreement, you smile, and hug her. And then you get a truck, and you let Wanda hold the map.
It is hot and humid, and you drum your fingers against the steering wheel, humming softly the pop song playing on the radio.
Wanda fell asleep against the passenger seat some time ago, and it has been a few hours since you left the small motel where you were staying after leaving the Avengers compound.
You are hungry, so you stop the car at the first dinner you find. The loss of movement of the vehicle awakens Wanda.
- Hey sleepyhead. - You joke as you take out your key, and look for your wallet in the glove compartment. - Let's go get something to eat.
You walk to the diner, which is practically empty. Wanda doesn't seem to be fully awake yet, but smiles at you when she catches you looking. You sit down on opposite sides of the table.
- I'll have the eggs and bacon, and pancakes, please. - You tell the waitress, and Wanda gives you a curious look. She orders cereal and chocolate waffles.
- Why are we having breakfast for dinner? - she asks with a smile.
You shrug, laughing lightly.
- It's always time for pancakes.
Wanda looks at you for a moment, and you look back. And then you are having a blinking contest. The waitress gives you a judgmental look when she interrupts the game, but you and Wanda smile and thank her for the food.
You finish eating first, and are distracted by one of the crossword puzzle magazines that the restaurant leaves under the tables.Â
- Hey, Wands, help me with this one. - You say slightly distracted as you run your pencil across the paper. - "One word. Destined for belonging. Companionship. Devotion" Do you have any idea what it is?
- Soulmates. - Wanda says before chewing another piece of waffle. You let out a contented exclamation when the word fits, and smile at her, who just winks at you, smiling back.
- Does this taste good? - you ask, watching her eat. She nods, pushing her plate toward you. Wanda hands you her own fork to taste the waffles. They are very good, but you don't want to eat any more.
You can't finish your crossword puzzle, and you return the magazine to the table compartment before you leave the restaurant.
And then it is Wanda's turn to drive. You sit in the passenger seat, and turn up the radio as you get back on the road. You wish you could stay awake at night to keep Wanda company, but it only takes four songs for you to fall asleep.Â
It is morning when you arrive in Virgina. And it is cold enough for you to wrap Wanda in a scarf when she refuses to warm up properly. She just laughs with flushed cheeks when you let her go. You rent a room with two beds, and after you shower, Wanda goes into the bathroom.
You are browsing through the channels when she comes back with a towel wrapped in her hair, she smells good even from a distance.
- Do you want to go out to eat, or do you want to order a pizza? - you ask.
- Pizza. - She replies as she lies down on the bed.
You need to go out and look for a pay phone, because both of your cell phones are off and in the bottom of one of the boxes you are carrying in the truck.
- Shall we watch a movie? - she asks when you come back into the room.Â
- Comedy or horror? - You counter with a question as you kick off your shoes. Wanda bites her lip thoughtfully.
- Both.
You smile as you hang your coat on the door.
You have been watching "Scary Movie" for twenty minutes when the pizza arrives. Wanda pauses the movie while you stand up and pay the delivery man.
She uses her powers to drag the coffee table into the space between the two beds, and you place the pizza on top of the wood and sit cross-legged on Wanda's bed.
Eventually, you finish the pizza and wipe your hands with napkins. And then Wanda lets the movie sequence continue, and you remain in her bed with the excuse that it was cold. You fall asleep at the end of the second film, but you wake up in the early morning hours with Wanda's hand against your waist. You don't think you should get used to the feeling, so you get up and go back to your bed.
Wanda cries when you arrive in Virginia Beach. You know it is the view of the sea, which reminded her of the tomb of Vision. You stand silently beside her as you entwine your hands. Wanda doesn't let go until you get back to the car.
It's cold, and you shouldn't have ice cream. But you do it anyway. You and Wanda stop at a drive-thru, and have your milkshakes while you drive toward Tennessee.
You let her have the rest of your ice cream even though she's had many tastes already.
On one of the roads, you stop the car on the roadside. You try to normalize your breathing.Â
- I'm here. - She says next to you in a gentle voice, as she lets you squeeze her hand over your lap. - You are safe.Â
You exchange directions for a while.Â
- So you have never been to Disney? - You ask between one lighthouse and another, somewhere in North Carolina.
Wanda denies it with a smile and a nod. She has only one hand on the wheel, and her hair is shining in the sun. You scold yourself for looking.
- Since we can't afford Disney, we should pick something cheap to do - You tell her while looking at one of the tour guides you found at the motel.
- I don't mind just driving around. - she says. You bite the smile from your lips.
- Yeah, me neither.
It takes two weeks for you to talk about Natasha. You have changed routes many times now, and then you sit in the back of the truck, and look at the stars. And Wanda asks you about your nightmares. You say that you dream that Nat is falling, and that you can never reach her. You fall asleep together in the back of the car, many blankets wrapped around you.
When you wake up holding each other, neither of you really minds.
You are near Chicago when you drag Wanda to an arcade in the late afternoon.Â
You and Wanda try out all the toys that are allowed for you. It's fun, and loud. And you laugh so hard your cheeks hurt.
And then you eat hamburger and fries with soda sitting in a parking lot. You push Wanda's shoulder lightly with yours when she steals one of your fries.
You are in a clothing bazaar when you see Wanda's breasts for the first time. In between trying on various strange outfits for fun, the fifth or sixth time you return to the changing room, Wanda pulls you into the cabin with her. And she smiles so much that you hardly notice them.Â
When you get back to the motel, you bathe first. You touch yourself in the shower without really thinking about anything, but when you cum, the image of her breasts are in your mind.
In Michigan you bet on a race. And Wanda absolutely beats you. She has flushed cheeks and a sweaty face when you catch up with her. You think it's unfair that she looks so beautiful.
You watch the sunset, and Wanda thinks she has seen an owl.Â
Your body begins to betray you when Wanda hugs you and you tremble. You decide that it is because you have been a long time without touching another person intimately and being touched in the same way.Â
You joke with Wanda that you need to find a one-night stand, and she doesn't smile when she agrees with you.
As you drive towards Kansas, a waitress flirts with you. Wanda gets back in the car saying that she is tired, and you don't understand why kissing the waitress against a wall while she has one hand down your pants doesn't satisfy you.
You talk about death in Springfield. You are sharing popcorn while wrapped in a blanket sitting on the grass a few feet from the truck.Â
- You can't die. - She declares suddenly and you raise your eyebrows in surprise.
- Wanda...?
- I won't... I won't survive.
You turned around quickly, and held up both your hands.Â
- I wouldn't like that. - You tell her. You know it's what she doesn't want to hear, but you need her to understand that. - I would never want your life to depend on mine.Â
Wanda sobs, lowering her head.
- I wish you would move on. - You nod to reaffirm her statement, your own face wet with tears. - I know... people expect me to say that I wish you would miss me, or not replace me. But I don't feel that way. - You confess. - I never want to be the reason for your unhappiness. If I die, and well, at some point I will, I want you to go on living. And enjoying it.
Wanda shakes her head, and jumps on your neck. She cries against your collarbone, but it's okay. You think she understood what you told her.
When she calms down, you are silent for several moments.Â
- What will you do if I die? - she asks, looking at you. You keep your gaze on the stars as you shrug;
- I would die too.
Wanda bites back a smile on her lips, and hugs you.Â
Bucky calls. You talk for five minutes. And then you text him that when he is ready you will be there to listen to him. You send a picture of you and Wanda, and when he calls again, you talk for five hours.
It takes four weeks since you left the compound to realize that you are in love with Wanda.
You are in a motel somewhere in Nebraska, and she is combing her hair in front of the television, a sitcom playing. And then she laughs, and you realize.
The realization doesn't surprise you though. You take a deep breath, and tell her you're going to get some air before you leave.Â
You lean back on the balcony, trying to push the guilt away. You can hardly believe it happened so fast and so intensely.
You decide that everything is too recent, and that it would be disrespectful to Wanda's grief, so you guard yourself.
You fight for the first time in Colorado. You are being stubborn and rude, and Wanda is being distant and judgmental. And then you are arguing about the next destination. And then you stop the car on the roadside, and Wanda says she's not going anywhere with you. And you are silent for forty minutes before you two start to cry.Â
You put your face against the steering wheel, and Wanda lifts her legs onto the seat and buries her face in her own arms.Â
It takes a long moment for you to calm down. And then you wipe away your tears and Wanda looks away into the window, and you drive away again.
You are staying in Utah for a few days. It is the first time you ask for separate rooms. You want to cry again, but you just take the key.Â
And then you can't sleep after four hours as you stare at the ceiling.Â
You get up, and go out onto the veranda. And your feet guide you to the next door. But before you can knock, Wanda opens it, and jumps into you, hugging you tight. Your body instantly relaxes, and you cry as you both apologize, and promise never to fight again.
You get drunk in Las Vegas. Really drunk. You don't remember ever laughing as hard as you did that night. You think Wanda used her powers to win the games, but you can't prove it. And then you're back in the truck, stumbling and laughing, and she has a look on her face that makes your stomach turn with nervousness.
But you swallow your nervousness with a smile, and accept the bottle of vodka she offers you. And then you are in a karaoke bar, singing at the top of your lungs for two hours into the early morning hours. When the owner kicks you out, Wanda holds your hand as you both run around town.Â
Back at the motel, you are laughing about something you can't remember, and then you fall into bed together, and instantly fall asleep.
When you wake up, you don't care about your headache.
You get the same tattoo in Las Vegas. Wanda holds and squeezes your hand while you are doing it, and you do the same to her. The tattoo artist thought you were married, and neither of you corrects him.
And then you take her to all the tourist spots, and you have ice cream and hot dogs. And Wanda's hand is warm against yours all the way.
On your last day in LA, you visit a nightclub. It is noisy, and lively, and has lots of alcohol. You find it hard to breathe when you see Wanda in a party dress, but she smiles and you follow her.
And then you dance and dance and dance, and you think about nothing. And then you're drunk again, and the girl at the bar is flirting with you. And Wanda's no longer smiling when she gets back on the dance floor.Â
You think the girl at the bar has asked for your number, but you're looking at Wanda dancing. And she moves her body with sensuality, and then there is a man behind her. Wanda kisses him while looking at you through the lights.Â
You take a shot of whiskey before leaving in a rage.
And when Wanda wakes up in the morning, she says she doesn't remember anything.
You think that you can no longer hide what you feel when you are on the road, heading for Oregon. But you just keep mumbling the song that plays on the radio.
Wanda bites her lip and has a lost look on her face, but when you ask her what's wrong, she looks away quickly as she says she was just distracted.Â
You are entertained by the music again.
You get used to your feelings in Portland. The routine helps you keep them quiet and buried deep in your chest.Â
You and Wanda begin to spend more time in inns, and camping, than on the road, but you still travel around the country.Â
And then Wanda talks about Vision for the first time. How important he had been, how much she missed him. You listen, and she asks about Nat. And you say that it is exactly the same way.Â
Neither of you cries anymore at the mention of their names.
It doesn't take long before the world needs you again. Sam calls. Stephen calls. You and Wanda throw your cell phones off a cliff, while toasting a lemonade.
- We are terrible superheroes, aren't we? - you ask looking at the horizon.
- The worst. - She replies before pouring her drink into her mouth.
You get your numbers back the same day by going to an electronics store.
And then you have to go back to New York.
Four hours down the road, and you both stop for a bite to eat in Cleveland, at a diner very similar to the one at your first stop.
Wanda walks ahead of you, hugging her own sweatshirt as she feels the late afternoon chill. You resist the urge to hug her.
- I'll have the waffles with chocolate and cereal. - You ask the waitress. Wanda stares at the menu for a few more seconds, biting her lower lip before speaking.
- I'll have the eggs and bacon with pancakes. - She asks right away.
You are silent for a moment, exchanging glances and quick smiles. And then the waitress returns with your plates.
- Are you ready to save the world again, Wandy? - you ask with a light irony in your voice before tasting your ceral.
Wanda smiles.
- Of course, of course. - She answers with humor. But her expression slowly falls, as if she is remembering something. You look at her with curiosity and concern.
- Are you all right?
- I just... - She begins. And then she straightens her posture, and diverts her eyes from yours. - What happens next? - You frown uncomprehendingly. Wanda looks unsure. - After we finish the job. This ends too?
You swallow dryly, feeling embarrassed and nervous. But you do your best to avoid showing it.
- Do you want it to end? - You ask.
- No. - She confesses as she looks into your eyes.- I'd like us to continue together.
- I'm not going anywhere, Wanda. - You assure her with a smile. And then you bite the inside of your cheek, feeling anxious. - Don't you... don't you wish you had a fixed place to stay?
Wanda blinks in confusion, looking surprised at your question.
- I just... I love the road and all. Mostly because you're with me. - You say, and don't notice her blush at the last sentence. - But I'd like to have a house. Especially now that we're going back to work. I wouldn't mind living in New York.
- Are you inviting me to move in with you? - Wanda asks with a mixture of curiosity and embarrassment, and you feel your face heat up.
- Yes, I ... I'd like that. - You say, and seeing Wanda's surprised expression, you hasten to add. - But I understand if you just want the road! That's fine, I'll stand by you too!
Wanda reaches your hand quickly over the table, and she has a huge smile on her lips.
- I would love to live with you.
- Oh. - You sigh ruefully, feeling as if a weight has been lifted from your back. - Cool.
- Cool. - Wanda repeats with a mischievous smile and a twinkle in her eye.
And then you go back to eating in silence.
You are in the passenger seat while Wanda hums a song along to the noise of the radio. It is dark and she is waiting for the first motel she can find to park. And you look at her, looking so good, and comfortable, and happy. And your brain is screaming how much you love her in an endless loop, while your heart threatens to explode in your chest.
So you think you'd better face the landscape because you're getting out of breath. But then Wanda is parking the car on the roadside, and you think maybe she's going to pee, but then she doesn't come out. You turn and find her gripping the steering wheel with both hands as she looks ahead.
- Hey, what happened? - you ask worriedly. Wanda closes her eyes.
- I read your mind.
The confession shocks you immediately.Â
- W-what? - You retort with a trembling voice.
Wanda opens her eyes, and lets go of the steering wheel. And she has a tender expression to calm you down.
- Hey, it's okay, I...
- No.
You mumble breathlessly, holding back tears, as you quickly unbuckle your seat belt and get out of the car.
You think you finally blew it. Wanda knew, and this was the end.Â
Leaning against the car, you hugged your arms as you tried to calm your breathing with your eyes closed. You were startled when Wanda touched your shoulders, not even having heard her get out of the car.
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. - You cried when she hugged you. Your body was shaking. - I tried to avoid it. I'm sorry.
- Stop saying that. - She asked softly, letting her hands caress your back to calm you down. - You didn't do anything wrong. - She tries to say it, but you hold her tight, afraid she'll be gone at any moment. - Hey, look at me.
Wanda asks a few more times before you let go, trying to control your tears. Only when you look at her do you realize that she too has a crying face.
- I don't want to lose you. - You whimper. - I'll control myself, I can send them away. And everything will go back to the way it was before.
Wanda denies it with her head, raising her hands to your face. You think she's going to say you both can't do this anymore, and your stomach flips.
- I love you. - She confesses, looking up at you. - I love you. - She repeats as she wipes your tears with her fingers. You're too shocked to react. - I love you so much.
And then Wanda kisses you. And you stumble with fright, but the car behind you won't let you move away from her body. And then your eyes close, and you surrender. A long sigh escapes your lips as you feel Wanda's tongue on yours.
And you kiss until you are breathless. And then your body is warm, trembling, and Wanda kisses you again, and again, as she presses you against the car.Â
And then you don't want to be dressed anymore, as Wanda lets her hands run all over you.Â
You don't separate your mouths as you fall into the back seat, Wanda on top moaning into your mouth.Â
The glass of the car is fogged as your hand slips on the window, trembling at Wanda's intimate touch, and delighting in the sounds she makes when you kiss her in all the right places.
You are happy. Fucking delighted. And you didn't want to keep driving, not unless it was to a house that was going to be yours and Wanda's. But Stephen and Sam were calling, saying that you were taking too long. Then you drove back to New York, and this time, Wanda's hand was entwined in yours.

poker night | stiles stilinski
word count; 9320
summary; you and stiles have grown close since leaving for college, and the pack coming to visit is the little push you need to finally cross that bridge.
notes; this is teh second fic for my birthday week/7,000 follower celebration!
warnings; smut, drug use, underage drinking.
Excitement and pure joy were coursing through your veins as you watched out of the open curtains down to the street below, the sun just beginning to set as the late evening moved into early night, and you heard Stiles chuckle from across the room where he was tipping various chips into different bowls to lay out beside the poker table heâd rented that sat in the middle of the room.
âExcited, much?â
âYes!âÂ
You turned to look at him, giving him a pointed stare as you dropped your hand from holding open the curtains to instead place both of your hands on your hips, giving him a wide smile as you rocked on the balls of your feet, and he returned the wide grin, crumpling up the foil packets and dropping them all into the bin as he deemed the room ready. He was lucky, he had a rather large dorm, and all to himself, far bigger than yours was but you were still convinced that the pre-FBI program gave each of their candidates far better university living than the rest of you got. There was plenty of space for everyone to cram in, some of them choosing hotels in the area and some of them choosing to stay with Stiles, it had been a squeeze to get everyone in, but it was worth it.
You hadn't seen your pack since the day youâd left Beacon Hills.
It was hard to be away from them all for so long, after everything you had all been through, and yet you knew you had it easier than most. Stiles had only been a fifteen-minute drive from your accommodation, and so the two of you had grown infinitely closer than you had ever been, relying on one another heavily to make the transition easier. Lydia had called you every day for the first month and a half, and youâd all had weekly facetime sessions, but it just hadn't been the same.
With the first year coming to a close and everyone being far too broke to be able to afford to actually go anywhere, youâd settled on a few days up at college together for a small but parent-free vacation before the journey home.Â
It was the perfect opportunity for you all to get unnecessarily drunk, excessively high, and eat a lot of junk food, all while not having to worry about any oncoming attack that might strike, as the year-marker of safety was quickly approaching. Naturally, Stiles had decided to set a theme, and where was the place that drinking and gambling was the norm? Vegas. So of course, Stiles had gone all out with renting a poker table and set, and hanging vaguely Vegas-themed decorations around the place. He was even wearing a t-shirt with a tux pattern printed on the front, and had managed to convince you into wearing your party shirt with the flapper-style tassels on to match.Â
âCâmon, Stiles, itâs been almost a year since weâve seen anyone from the pack, why arenât you bouncing off of the roof with excitement?â
âIâve seen one person from the pack all year.â He prompted, shooting you a playful wink and laughing as you rolled your eyes at him, before throwing away all the wrappers and holding his arms out for you in an invitation for a hug.
Accepting his offer, you moved away from the window and let him wrap his arms around your waist, barely a sliver of space between your bodies as you looked up at him and sighed. âIâm nervous. Itâs been so long since weâve seen them all, and I love them all so much, but nothing bad has happened since weâve all been separated but what if just when we all get together again, something bad happens, and we donât even get to enjoy it an-â
He shushed you gently, using one hand to weave through your hair and tuck it away behind your ear, his eyes fixed on you carefully as the playlist you and Stiles had spent a whole week building was playing in the background, waiting for everyone to arrive to appreciate it. âBad things donât happen when weâre all together, bad things happened because we were in Beacon Hills. We arenât in Beacon Hills anymore, and we arenât scared kids anymore, okay?â
âOkay.â
âYou wannaâ cheer up? Nobody can be sad in faux-Vegas!â He cheered, waving his arm around the room, and you chuckled, catching his face brighten even further as he watched the worry slip away from your features, his lips brushing your forehead before he was tucking you under his chin, and holding you tightly.Â
You were only still for a second, the two of you swaying slowly before you heard the tell-tale signs of a car pulling up outside, the engine dying and doors slamming, and an excited gasp left your lips. âI bet thatâs them!â
His fingers laced with yours and he was moving before you were, the two of you speeding over to the window to peer out, catching sight of Derekâs black car, the man himself leaning against it and waiting as Mason and Liam pulled their bags out of the trunk, Scott sitting in the passenger seat with the door open and his bag in his lap. Both yours and Stilesâ phone were chiming a second after he put his own away, notification in your group chat as he informed you both that theyâd arrived, unaware of you watching on from the window with anticipation.
The group was on the move, the car locked and disappearing from sight as they entered the building's lobby area, and Lydia had offered her own ETA as the others all chipped in theirs, and just like that, your fears were gone as you swung open the front door and peered out into the corridor while you waited.
Within forty minutes of the Beacon Hills group arriving, everybody was here, and drinks had been cracked open, snacks dug into, and you were all lounging around and catching up on missed gossip and news, sharing photos and stories that you had wanted to tell in person and saved just for this moment.
Pizza boxes were piled high within two hours, and smoke was filling the air, giggles and laughs shared all around as the group simply rejoiced in being back together once again. Liam and Mason had told you all about the latest shit that Coach had been dishing out, and all the pranks that they had committed, as well as Mason, blushing when Lydia and Kira had pressed him about Corey. Scott and Derek had given a brief update about everything that had happened in Beacon Hills, which was surprisingly little with all things considered, and Lydia had tried to inform you all about the advanced placement work she had been doing in her classes, but had lost you all at some point as it became far too complex for you all to understand, and so instead had switched to telling you about the cute guy she had met at the coffee shop three months ago.Â
Kira and Malis had been travelling, the pair had recently been all over Europe exploring, and had even visited Isaac in France and Jackson in London, before theyâd finally returned home to see everyone. They dished out all the little souvenirs that they had bought, and shared them out with you all before showing you pictures and telling you the stories behind each trip. You had shared your own stories, all the funny ones you had of Stiles falling over or spilling something in public, and he embarrassed you just as much, teasing you until your cheeks were red and he was cuddling you into his side and ruffling your hair as everyone laughed.Â
It was like nothing had ever changed, and you loved it.
The night had drifted on with natural progress until the music had been turned down to a lower level with the late hours, and the hazy atmosphere had everyone moving sluggishly and lazily as empty bottles littered the floor and the stubs of many dead blunts sat in the ashtray on the edge of the poker table, even the wolves having a little wolfbane laced treats to help them hit the mood just as much as all of the non-wolves had.Â
You were currently lounging across both Liam and Malia on the couch, lay out over them as you continually brushed off your midriff, crumbs dropping down onto your top each time Liam took a bite of the chip dish that was positioned between him and Mason, the two absolutely gone as they laughed and giggled among themselves about everything and anything.Â
Alongside their voices, and the conversation between yourself, Malia and the boys, was the rustle of cards and clinking of poker-chips, and you were itching for more physical affection than you were getting now, your inhibitions lowered and your need for physical attention through the roof from the substances racing through your bloodstream. Your sights honed in on Stiles, hair messy from playing with it and back facing you, your chair long abandoned from where youâd given up on cards when theyâd started the real gambling, and youâd remembered just how crap you were at the game.Â
Getting up onto wobbly legs, you made your way across the room, resting your hands on Stilesâ shoulder as you stood behind him, smoothing them down his chest and he placed his beer down, licking the excess of the bitter liquid from his lips and placing the hand on top of one of yours, squeezing lightly as he turned to look at you.Â
âHi, cutie. What dâyou need?â
âNothinâ.â You sighed, slumping down further and resting your chin on the top of his head, used to the sweet little nicknames he fixed you with, and you relaxed against him as he leaned back a little further in the chair and pushed himself a few inches out front he table, seeming to predict your next words before you had even spoken them; âWas just feeling like I wanted some attention.â
âHm, well câmere, you can play cards, Iâve seen your poker face in the midst of some much more intense situations than this, I think you can handle it.â
You flicked him in the ear for his joke about all your supernatural struggles, but he held your hand and guided you around him to stand by his side, making space for you to sink down atop him and get comfy.
Slumping down across the boyâs lap with a deep sigh, your legs were slung across his at an angle, and his arms were quick to wind around your waist, one hand tucking itself under your shirt to seat on the heated skin of your waist, and the other held his cards limply in his hand, but his focus was no longer on them. Youâd long since given up on the game, barely able to hold a focus as your mind spun from the hazy smoke in the air, and the taste of bitter-sweet alcohol still lingering in your mouth.Â
Slightly sticky lips brushed your shoulder as he peppered the bare skin with sweet kisses, and you turned your head to give the boy a dopey smile, watching as his own face creased in a beaming grin in response. His eyes were blown wide, slightly widened and his hair messy from constant playing with it, the arm of yours that wasnât sitting around his neck for support was lifting up so that you could weave a hand into the chocolate locks, and he sighed out softly at the contact, letting you twist in his arms to face him even more.Â
âLike it when you play with my hair.â
âMhm, I know.âÂ
Your words were mumbled in response and he chuckled under his breath as his eyes fluttered shut, tipping his head into your hand, before a voice coughed loudly and the two of your jumped, eyes snapping open and focus moving back to the poker table before you both, other members of the pack gathered around and smirking at you both knowingly, but you let out a deep sigh and only relaxed into the boy under you even further.Â
âStop looking at us like that.âÂ
âLike what, exactly?â Lydia all but purred out her words, and you shot her a pointed look, as the others around the table all tried to muffle their laughs of agreement. Derek was looking at his cards and trying to bite away his smile by nibbling on the inside of his cheek, Scott and Kira were pretending to discuss their hand at cards, but were shooting the pair of you small looks throughout their whispered conversation, and Lydia was staring at you with a challenging smirk. You could even feel the members of the others scattered around you watching on, the pack spread out around the smoke room, the funky smell hanging off of everyone and everything.
âYou know what like. Youâre looking at us like you know something we donât, like itâs a joke only we arenât a part of.âÂ
You felt a nose push at the underside of your jaw and tipped your head up to allow the boy more space to nose at the space under your jaw and by your ear, letting him just gain his own affections to his heartâs content, and this only spurred on Lydiaâs piercing stare at the two of you. âYou arenât a part of a joke, and in fact, itâs incredibly unfunny. However, I do know something you donât. We all do.â
âCare to share?â
It was the first night in almost a year that the pack had all been together. Lydia had finished her exams early, Scott had gotten ahead on his training with Deaton to create time, and Liam and Mason had ditched their last week. Derek had driven them all up here, and Lydia had come down from her college to see you all. Kira had come with Malia on the plane after they had recently finished their travels of Europe, and you had come across from your own dorms.
It was barely a travel, you and Stiles went to colleges that were only ten miles apart, and so you were hanging out regularly during the week, you were the only two that had seen each other in person since leaving for college and not just via facetime, and in this time, the two of you seemed to have grown even closer than you had ever been despite all the supernatural drama you had been through.Â
âCâmon, you two have gotten so close since we all left for college.â
âSo?â you and Stiles spoke at once, looking to Scott for his comment, before you were giggling and sharing glances in your utterly smoked out state, finding entertainment in your joint statement.Â
âNothing.. âsparkedâ in that time?âÂ
You took a deep sigh, your eyes wandering around the room, flicking from Lydia to Malia, before back to the redhead who was watching you intensely. âFeels a bit weird to talk about this in front of two of his exes.â
âSo, there is something to talk about!â Lydia shouted the words like she had suddenly realised the key to life, looking far more excited than someone who just discovered their best friends having feelings for their ex should look. âGod, finally, Iâve only been staying with you for three days and the sexual tension is already too much for me to handle.â
âWhat are you talking about?â Stiles questioned, breath fanning over your face from where he was all but mouthing at your jaw, dry kisses pressed there as he held you to his chest tightly, having put his cards down on the table at some point so hold you with both hands.Â
âWhen I left, you two were friends who would hug, now youâre this pair who are all over each other without even realising it! I mean, the two of you are closer right now than Scott and Kira have ever been!â The couple that was involved against their will let out various noises of complaints, being waved off by the redhead and they comforted one another with small kisses, both you and Stiles shrugging languidly. âListen, Malia and Stiles ended ages ago, and Stiles and I were barely a couple, we didnât even sleep together, so donât feel weird.â
âWay to boost my ego, Lydia.â The brunette under you sighed, but you only squeezed yourself around him tighter, feeling him reciprocate the emotions and push his hand even further up over your ribs.Â
âEven I can smell the arousal and longing rolling off of the two of you in waves. Just admit it to each other already.â Derek muttered, shifting his cards before pushing some of his counters into the middle, and despite all the alcohol and weed in your system, your eyes went wide as you shifted to look at the boy underneath you, his lips parted a little as he gave you a nervous smile.Â
âYouâre longing? For me?âÂ
He grinned widely, his head tipping to the side, cheeks flushed with warm heat, before he licked over his lips and nodded slowly. âYeah, since like the first month when you stayed that whole weekend to binge marvel movies with me so I didnât feel alone and you did that dance thing while you were making pancakes on Saturday.â He paused, thinking over his words, before he was leaning in a little and bumping his nose with yours as your hand came out of his hair to sit on his cheek delicately. âYouâre aroused? By me?â
Your breath hitched, and he smirked very lightly at your response, his lips brushing yours when you nodded. âYeah, ever since the day you came over right after going to the gym and you were all sweaty and asked if I minded if you used my shower and then you walked around with your shirt off before dinner. I definitely didnât mind.â
He laughed lightly at your statement, his eyes glazing over a little as he remembered the day. âAre you longing, too?â
âMhm. Are you also aroused?â Your question hung heavily in the air and he let out a soft sound under his breath as you asked him.
âOf course.â
âCool.â You both spoke the single syllable word at the same time, your eyes closing as your fingers dug into his jaw a little, your breathing as light and shallow as everyone else in the room seemed to fade away. It was simply the two of you, sharing breath and his tongue brushing your lips when it peeked out of his mouth to wet his own, and you whimpered under your breath so quietly only he would hear it, to which his hands tightened on your flesh as he picked up on the sound.Â
âYou want to go back to your place?â
âOh, definitely.â You nodded rapidly, and he beamed shifting in your lap, taking a swig of his drink as he downed the rest of the glass, and slipped his hand into your back pocket as the rest of the group stared at the two of you with wide eyes, shock evident on their faces about how easy that conversation had really been, but you didnât care, because Stiles was running the pads of his fingers very subtly over your ass and squeezing through your pocket, even as he stared down everyone else in the room, and your skin was beginning to feel hot from something entirely other than the atmosphere in his dorm that you had all created. âWe need a cab.â
âWe can call one and makeout in the doorway while we wait, go get your bag.â He pulled his touch away from you, placing a playful slap on your ass and grinning at the way you squeaked before scurrying away to gather your belongings, and he was grabbing his wallet, throwing down a handful of notes on the table, quickly booking an Uber with the app on his phone.Â
When your hand slipped into his again the shocked looks had morphed into smirks, the only three teams still sitting around the table were reshuffling cards and setting themselves up to play, Stiles telling them all not to wait up for him to come home, before he was pulling you from the room and towards the door. âYou booked a cab?â
âYes.â
âAnd weâre going to make out in the doorway until it gets here?â
âFuck, yes.â He tipped his head to look at you, slamming the front food shut and guiding you towards the stairs you were so familiar with, as the two of you set off on your quick and stumbling journey toward the main entrance to the building.Â
âWill you grab at my ass again like you were before?â
âDo you want me to?â He didnât give you a chance to respond, however, before his fingers were leaving yours and moving over your lower back to grab at your ass roughly, feeling your shake as he curled you into his side, the two of you inching down the lower staircase. âLike that?â
âYeah?â
âHonestly, Iâll do anything you want me to.â
âIâm going to remember that for later.â You punctuated your words with a nibble on his lower lip, glancing up into his swirling whiskey eyes through your lashes, and he groaned under his breath, letting himself nod slowly as he used his grip on your ass to pull your body flush up against his. His mouth descended onto your own once again, catching your lips in a fiery kiss, instantly parting as the lust took over your both, tripping and stumbling down the final few steps as he pressed you into the wall beside the door, uncaring for who may see the pair of you as his tongue tangled with your own, visible between your parted mouths whenever your heads twisted to the side for deeper access.Â
It was sloppy and wet, and a clash of moans and whimpers as the two of you teased done another endlessly with a mixture of slow and ongoing kisses that alternated with needy and rushed ones, teeth clashing and lips dragging.
Hands roamed one anotherâs bodies, your palms tracing over the broad and hardened planes of his chest, the workouts he had been on for the pre-FBI fitness programs had done things to his body that lacrosse never did, and you were sure the day youâd seen Stiles do a pull-up was the day you realised rolling over guys may actually be a thing. The muscles twitched and tensed under your fingertips, and his hands were rubbing along you back all the way to your upper thighs, exploring your body as he pinched and squeezed in places that made your body jerk and twitch into him.Â
His lips were working along your neck as your heart raced, your eyes closed and back arching up, chests pressed flush together, and the what around the two of you almost felt like it was too much. The fingers that were sitting low on your waist slipped even further, grazing along you covered pussy through you jeans, ad he pushed down teasingly on the spot he knew your clit would be, biting down on the joint between your shoulder and your neck when he heard you moan his name out breathlessly at the simple action.
He dragged his tongue over the spot, moving in to dip back down to kiss you, before the two of you were breaking through your haze at the sound of a horn honking, and the phone in his back pocket was buzzing. He was panting for breath as he pulled back from you, only one hand still touching you as his fingers laced with your own, a stark contrast from every part of him pressed to every part of you only seconds prior.Â
âGood thing, one minute longer and I probably wouldâve had my hands down your pants right here in the doorway.â
He gave you a sultry wink, before he was pulling you along to the car waiting on the edge of the road, ignoring your wide eyes and stuttering words, holding the door open for you and helping you inside like a gentleman, like he hadn't just threatened public nudity and a great orgasm only seconds prior. He was seconds behind you, confirming his identity and booking to the driver, and as the car took up motion on the short journey once again, he turned back to you.
âYou okay, baby? You look flushed.â You turned to look at him, sensing the light tone in his voice that was playfully disguising the question underneath as to whether you still wanted this, and you nodded gently, taking his face in your hands and pulling his face down so that you could peck his lips.Â
âI like it when you call me baby.â
âYou do?â He dragged his nose along your cheek, brushing a kiss to your skin, the intimate and sweet touches making you blush hot and red under his touch, his chuckle so soft that only you could hear it.Â
âYeah. We could have been doing this for months, yâknow.â
âMaking out in a taxi and trying not to feel each other up to much before we get back to your place?â He joked, tucking an arm over your shoulder and you settled into his side, your hands playing with his other one as it sat on your thigh and squeezed lightly.Â
âI was going to say being together, but sex works too.â Your words were whispered out, and he twisted until he was nuzzling affectionately into your hairline.Â
âYou want that? To be together with me?â
âWell, I wasnât longing for fun.â You scoffed, and he shifted his hands to lace your fingers together, his arm squeezing you tighter to him.Â
âI canât say I always knew we were meant to be, or that I spent my whole child and teenhood pining after you, but I really think we would be special together, and I think we could go a long way together.â You rolled your eyes at his affections, but the alcohol and drugs in your body were making you emotional, and you sniffed away your feelings as you pushed your face into his neck, pressing a kiss to his skin in a silent acknowledgement of his statement.Â
âTogether, then.â
âTogether.â He confirmed, and the scenery flashing by before you both was quickly coming to an end, Stiles confirming a payment to come out of his bank account, before he was thanking the driver and watching as you clambered from the car to stand before your own building, Stiles stumbling out behind you and pressing himself up to your back as the two of you giggled in your drunkenness.Â
It was an awkward walk between the two of you, you back pressed to the wall of your elevator as you each tried to hit the right button for your floor, seeming to hit every single one but the right one, and the journey was filled with shared giggling ad little moans as you let him kiss and lick at your neck, marking your skin with red marks that would be dark by the morning. His hands had fished your keys out of your pocket, and he was holding them up before you as the two of you all but raced along the corridor to your room.Â
The door slammed off of the wall as you made your way in, dropping the keys to the floor and kicking the door shut behind you as he navigated you on the path he knew so well toward your bedroom, the light feeling in the air gone as lust and heat replaced it, your mouths meshing together in urgent kisses that begged for more, wandering hands and tugs of material, your jacket pushed from your shoulder to the floor and your hands tucked underneath his t-shirt as you finally got to feel the abs that you had so often watched sweat run down when heâd taken you to do workouts with him, or showed up at your place straight after the gym or a run.Â
Pulling his own shirt up and over his head, your hands were immediately drawn to the exposed skin of his chest. It certainly wasnât the first time youâd seen him without a shirt on, but it was the first time youâd been allowed to actually look, to touch, and your fingertips were pressing into the smooth skin, palms flat to his flushed chest, pink and shining with a light layer of sweat from the heat forming between the two of you. âDamn, Sti.â
âWhat? Still thought I was the skinny kid with the buzzcut from sophomore year?â
âNo, youâve spent enough time wandering around without your shirt on while Iâm around for me to know youâre hot, itâs just now I can actually appreciate it.â You flashed your teeth at him in a cheeky grin, and he gave a breathless chuckle in response, the muscles in his stomach tightening as your fingers dragged down over the taut flesh, until your nails were scratching at the trail of dark hairs below his navel, hooking into his dark jeans.
âI wouldn't have minded if youâd appreciated it before.â You tipped your head up, kissing along the underside of his jaw gently, licking at the smooth flesh from where he had shaved earlier in the day, and his breathing shallowed as you did, his fingers tightening on your hips. âOkay, no fair, shirt off, baby. Iâve been wanting to know what your tits looked like since you wore that red bikini to the pool party I took you to.â
You went almost the same shade as the aforementioned garment as he whispered the filthy words into your ear, and he pushed his hands up under your shirt, hands inching the flimsy material up until it was sitting just under your bra, his thumbs smoothing out over your skin and brushing at the wire of your bra. âYou sure you want to do this? We donât have to. I swear, Iâd be more than happy to just cuddle with you and watch movies like we always do on Tuesday nights, just s-â
Your lips met his, pressing a deep and longing kiss to his lips, and he moaned into your mouth when the connection was made, your bodies coming up flush against one another as you moved your hands back up to loop around his neck. Your fingers weaved into his hair, one hand behind his head as the other cradled his jaw, and he tipped his head to the side, your noses bumping and brushing as his tongue dipped out to tempt your lips to open up for him. Instead of allowing that, however, you were pulling away, just enough until your lips were barely brushing his, letting him groan out in dissatisfaction.Â
Pulling your shirt up and over your head and dropping it to the ground, his eyes widened as he took in the sight of your exposed chest, all other than the simple white bra you were wearing underneath, and your jaw dropped as you suddenly remembered the underwear that was clad on your body.Â
âI wasnât expecting this when I put my comfy underwear on today, I have way cuter bras than this.âÂ
He smirked, popping the button on your jeans so that they were loose enough for him to tug down softly, until they were tight around your thighs, your jaw hanging open as both of his palms slipped down to squeeze at your ass. âI was assuming you wouldn't be wearing the cute blue thong when you had no idea what would happen tonight. Besides, if you'll let me, Iâd much rather have your underwear off and on the floor, with my head between your thighs and my hands on your tits instead.â
âHow do you know about my cute blue thong?â You whined, tipping your head back with false-irritation in your voice, and letting him kiss down your neck as your hair fell back behind you.Â
âYou do your laundry with me every week, sometimes Iâd see what was going into the machines, and that piece caught my eye, I always hoped Iâd get to see it on you, and we have plenty of time for that. Besides, Iâm wearing boxers with hotdogs printed on, so donât worry about it.â His fingers moved one of the straps of your bra away, letting it fall away to sit on the side of your arm, exposing your shoulder to him, and you own hands found the clasp behind your back, undoing it for him and watching as his eyes focused in one your breasts, nipples already hard under the material, and he licked at his lips as he stared down at your chest. âShit, you have such perfect tits.â
You took one of his wrists in your hands, dragging the limp limb up until his palm was pressing over your skin, a content sigh falling from your lips was beyond your control as his fingers twitched and he took control once again, squeezing at the fleshy mound you had given him access to. His thumb and forefinger pinched your nipple teasingly, rolling the taut bud between the pads, and your back arched up, pressing even further into him.Â
Dipping down, he took the other between his teeth, pulling lightly before sealing his lips around it, his arm wrapped around your lower back so that he could tip you backwards, your hips pressing into his and the bulge in his jeans becoming obvious as you found yourself flush up against one another.Â
âI really need to know what else that mouth can do, and what else youâve got hidden, and then when weâre all fucked out, we can definitely cuddle and watch a movie. First, though, I want you to make sure I scream loud enough that my neighbours know your name.â
âAnd here I was thinking Iâd be doing the dirty talk, huh?â He sighed out against your skin, pulling away from your breast with a âpopâ, the skin wet and shiny and he moved back up to brush his mouth with yours. âYou got it, princess.âÂ
His hands found your hips, pushing you backwards onto the bed, and he was pulling your jeans the rest of the way down your legs, taking your socks and shoes as he went, stripping you down to just the polka dot cotton panties you wore, and your hair fanned out around you on the bed as your chest rose and fell, mind spinning as you tried to gather yourself, the whole motion had happened so quickly. His hands were on your knees, pushing your thighs apart until he could settle on the mattress between them, and lick a long stripe up along your covered core, spit soaking you underwear, but the feeling of his hot breath against you was already making you tremble underneath him.Â
âCanât wait to taste you, I bet youâre sweet, hm? That okay? Iâve been dreaming âbout getting my head between these thighs, or having you ride my face, cum on my tongue, howâs that sound?âÂ
âYes! Yes, to all of it, whatever you want!â Your words were promising for him, and he caught your eye as you propped yourself up on you elbows to look at him, his eyes blown with lust and dark as he hooked his fingers into the elastic of the waistband, tugging the material away from your swiftly, and he let out a noise that was somewhere between a growl and a moan as your glistening folds were put on display for him, with no barrier between.Â
âOh, fuck, you look so good. All spread out for me, dripping wet and blushing. Youâre perfect.â
âIâm not perfect, Stiles.âÂ
âYou absolutely fucking are, and Iâll prove just how perfect I think you are.â His lips descended onto yours as he leaned over you, one hand holding him up as you shared a sloppy and heated kiss, the clashing of teeth and tangling of tongues, wet sounds audible in the room as the two of you frantically dove into one another's mouths, exploring and becoming familiar with new territory. The other hand snaked down between your body, cautious fingers dragging along your drenched skin as two digits parted your folds, swirling in the built-up wetness and bumping against your clit. âShit, youâre so wet. All for me, yeah?â
âAll for you, Stiles, you really have no idea what you do to me.â
âMhm, I think I do.â He joked, grinding his hips down into one of your thighs, pressing the erection that was straining into his jeans into your thigh, and you both let out whimpers at the action.Â
âThen fuck me, Stiles, show me I affect you like you affect me. Fuck me, now.â
âI will, I promise.â He cooed, grinning into your skin, his face buried in your neck as he sunk a single finger into you, all the way down to the knuckle, feeling your velvety walls clench around him immediately, coating his skin in your juices. âI gottaâ open you up first, get you ready for mâ cock, okay? And, I do just really want to fuck you with my tongue.âÂ
With that, he was slipping out of your eyesight and down your body, his arms wrapping under your thighs as he situated himself between your legs, letting out a shaky breath as he lapped at his lips and stared lustfully at your centre. You felt drunk on his touch, everything in your world seeming hazy and blurry as he pressed kisses up along the inside of your thighs, his teeth dragging against the soft skin, and you felt your breath hold in your lungs as he came to the apex of your thighs. That second-long pause felt like it dragged on for hours, before his tongue was finally dragging slowly along your core, a trail from your entrance to your clit, and a loud moan tore from you at the feeling of his mouth on you.Â
His lips sealed around your clit, sucking harshly, and your back arched up from the bed as he barely did anything, and yet pleasure was already spiking along your entire body. He dragged his tongue, flat and warm, over the bud and made sure that he moved as slowly as possible, teasing you endlessly, despite how much you wanted more. You wanted to remember this moment and make the most of it, but you couldn't think about anything but the pure bliss Stiles was giving to you, the way he was drinking up every drop of arousal you made, the way he was sucking and nibbling at your core in a most delectable way that had a heat curling in your belly and your body somewhere between relaxed and tense.Â
Once he was satisfied that he had licked up everything you had already given, his mouth closed over you, the tip of his tongue poking and prodding at your entrance and teasing the hole, before dipping his tongue into you, and he groaned out as his mouth was flooded with more waves of your juices. You clenched around the wet muscle eagerly, feeling the way your own body was reacting to him like you never had with anyone else, and your hips rocked up into his face, rolling in repeated motions to meet the thrusts of his tongue in and out of you.Â
âFuck, Stiles!â
His chuckle was muffled against your core, the feeling of it vibrating along you body though, and the upturned tip of his cute little nose was once again you downfall, though now instead of being due to making your heart race, it was instead form the way it was nudging against the throbbing bud nestled between your legs, and you felt the nerves in you body zapping and jolting with electricity each time he tilted his head or dove into you even deeper than he already was.Â
His fingers were digging into your thighs, holding you close to him as you cried out his name, and he was moaning into your centre with each flick of his tongue and drag of his lips against your dripping cunt, slurping sounds that would make a pornstar blush, and you brought up a shaky hand to thread into his hair, tugging on the chocolate locks in warning. You felt the heat overwhelm you, your body tensing and back arching up until it was no longer on the bed and your legs clamping around his head as you came, his name leaving your lips as a sob when he bit down on your clit just enough to spur on your orgasm with a little more power.Â
Your body was shaking and muscles cramping up, your skin shining with a sheen of sweat and he continued to greedily lap at your hole until you were oversensitive and pushing him away prying your own legs open to release him, and when he popped back into your line of sight, he was wearing own of the cockiest looks you had ever seen on him. His cheeks and chin were shining, and his lips were swollen, hair messy from where your fingers were tangled in the strands and he kissed his way back up your body, smearing your sin with your own fluids, and taking his time in making sure he had kissed and licked at every bit of skin, until his mouth was moving across your cheek and back to your lips.Â
âYou tasted so fucking good, you want to try?â His words were deep, and seductive, and his voice was raspier than you had ever heard it, even in the mornings when the two of you had fallen asleep slumped against one another on the couch after marathoning a new TV show. You found yourself nodding before you even really processed the words, and he beamed down at you with a filthy smile, his thumb pulling your bottom lip down and opening your mouth just enough for his tongue to slither out and play with yours when his lips slanted across your own.Â
It was a taste you werenât used to, foreign in your mouth and unexpected and yet it was just a little sweet, like he had said. It was mixed with the taste of him, one which you much preferred but at this point every inhibition you had was thrown out of the window because right now you were drowning in the way his lips played with your own, his lips tempting yours into the interaction alongside his. For a few minutes, you just lay there, your fingers weaved into his hair as you made out, lazy and messy and hot in a way you couldn't even begin to explain, but each kiss left you breathless and craving more, and each flittering touch of his hands along your body as he moved them, dragging them over every limb and expanse of skin, had your body setting alight once again.
âHow do you feel?â
âI feel fucking incredible.â You smiled up at him dopily, and he laughed down at you, the moment so incredibly intimate that you felt like your heart was swelling up, and his finger tapped the tip of your nose, before brushing over your kiss-bitten and pouted lips, letting you kiss the pad of his finger.Â
âYeah? Thatâs good, I like this. Us. I like us being like this, it sortaâ feels like one of those lazy Sunday mornings. Donât you think?â Your arms wrapped around his neck, and you pulled up your legs to clamp around his hips, humming thoughtfully as you considered his words.Â
âI do, but-â you paused in your words, flipping the two of you over, and he let out a sound of sunrise and shock, before he was staring up at you in awe and swallowing thickly as he found himself on his back, watching your tits bounce above him as you leaned down, hair framing your face and lips barely touching his. â-if this was a lazy Sunday morning, you definitely wouldn't be wearing jeans, and I would be able to ride you a lot easier.âÂ
To emphasise your point, your rocked your hips down into him gently, your eyes rolling a little and eyes fluttering shut as the denim he wore grazed against your sensitive core, a wet patch being left over the bulge of his jeans, the two of you watching between your bodies as trails of slick leaked from you, covering the front of his pants each time you rose up and pushed back down into his covered erection. âYou are everything wet dreams are made of.âÂ
His words were groaned out, his hands coming down between your bodies, and he rose his legs behind you, bumping you up just high enough that when his hips lifted from the bed with you sat in his lap, he was able to push his jeans and boxers down to his mid-thighs. His cock was pulsing with need, skin hot and flushed and dripping with precum, both of you letting out squeaky and broken sounds of satisfaction when his cock rubbed against your folds.Â
Grinding down onto him, his legs fell flat, both of you far too needy for a connection to even undress him properly, and you sat up, hands splayed over his chest for leverage and knees digging into the mattress on either side of his hips, giving you the leverage you needed to be able to rock your hips into him.Â
The head of his cock pushed against your neglected bead each time, his cock and thighs shining with your arousal as you pleased yourself, whimpering at each strangled noise he let out as his hands clenched by his sides, chest rising and falling under your palms as your dragged your pussy up and down his cock, feeling him nudge against your hole each time, but you were enjoying the build-up a little too much, and you could tell he was too, from the way his face was scrunched up in pleasure and the way his lips were parted to let out short breaths.Â
âPlease, princess. I need to be inside you, I have been wishing for this moment for almost a year, donât make me wait any longer.â
You nodded, lifting yourself up as he quickly took himself within his hand, pumping himself easily with all the slick on his skin, before he was lining himself up, his eyes finding yours and his other hand finding your jaw, bringing your lips down to meet his in a tender kiss as he felt you sink down onto his cock, gasping against your mouth and nibbling on your lower lip as you took him into your warmth, inch by inch until he was fully sheathed within you.
He let out a long and shuddering breath when your hips met his, your walls clamping around him and flexing experimentally, and he wiggled happily, his whole body deflating as a look of ecstasy and joy took him over. âHoly fuck, you feel incredible.â
You rolled your hips back, circling them slowly as you adjusted to his size, and you felt the breath knocked from your lungs as he dragged against every inch of your walls slowly. There was no barrier between you, and your forehead dropped down to press against his as you experimented with the swivels of your hips and the movements you made, trying to find a rhythm of what worked best for the both of you. His hands came up to your hips, holding on tightly and helping you move, and when his noises picked up in frequency and pitch at the same time that your own eyes rolled back and your skin erupted in goosebumps was when you knew you had found the best way to move.
You left a series of prolonged and loving kisses to his lips, feeling him lean up into it as best as possible, before your nails were digging into his skin scraping lightly as you moved yourself back to sitting up on his lap. He stretched you out, his generous girth and length filling you to the brim, and he was tapping against spots you didnât even know you had, bringing you more pleasure than you could possibly have imagined, and you clenched around him tightly and rolled the muscles in your stomach. âOh, God! Donât do that unless you want me to cum in like thirty seconds, because that was fucking incredible, but I wonât last if you do.â
His words were wheezed out and you smirked, repeating the action and watching the way he writhed and squirmed underneath you, and he shot you a mock glare, pinching at your thighs and making you jump in a way that brought both of you a little jolt of electricity.Â
âYou are a hazard to my fucking health, princess.â
A needy noise left you at the pet name, and you began to bob up and down on his shaft, throwing you head back as you took what you wanted, the feeling of another climax buildings as creeping through your veins and making your vision flash with spots as your eyes rolled, and your lips were drying with each quick pant you took for breath. The angle changed when he pushed himself up onto his hands, and a cry left you, your legs tightening around him as he pushed against a certain spot.
âThere?â
âRight there, Stiles! Fuck, please!â Your hands were in his hair, his lips on your tits and teeth grazing your skin as he tried to buck up to meet your movements, and you only sped up more and more as you found yourself becoming comfortable in your motions. The room seemed to fade away, nothing mattered between the two of you except the way his hands felt on your body and the way his cock felt every time it slid out of you almost entirely, before you were slamming yourself back or him and crying out his name.Â
His own mumbles of praise and arousal were spurring you on, your body feeling like it was on cloud nine, and you no longer felt intoxicated on anything except the feeling of his body underneath you, the way he looked at you lighting you up and the way he kissed you making you feel like nothing would ever matter again. Stiles meant everything, he was made for you, and you could feel from the way the pair of you fit so well together that nothing would ever matter again, as long as you had him and he had you.
Your muscles were growing tired, your knees aching thighs screaming out, but your climax was so close that you could barely even speak sentences now, nothing but his name and your begs for more, and you could feel him twitching and leaking precum within you as he neared his peak. He fell back until he was laying down again, his legs still popped up behind you and you followed after him, a hand on either side of his head as his thrusts into you became easier for him, your jaw slack and tears lining your eyes as pure pleasure overtook you.Â
He picked up his pace, chasing his own high as well as yours frantically and the press of your chest to his, the feel of the short hairs at his base tickling against your overstimulated clit was enough to completely drive you into bliss. He was pounding into you, never letting up as he kissed your through your climax, feeling you scream out into his mouth as he muffled your sounds and made sure to fuck you through until you could no longer take it. You were scratching at his chest, shaking as everything all when into hyperdrive, feeling like you were floating as he flipped you over, holding your legs up and open as he desperately fucked into your abused hole, wetness on your cheeks as a third orgasm built, straight off of the second one and it all became too much.Â
His fingers on your clit, his mouth on your chest, his cock stretching you out wide and dragging against your rim with each deep and penetrating thrust, and your fingers tangled in the bedsheets as you thrashed happily under him. Nothing had ever felt this good, no orgasm youâd ever had with anyone else or alone, nothing you had even imagined, and every nerve within you was sparking and crackling with energy as you finally exploded for a third and final time.
You clenched around him so hard that you dragged him over the edge with you, his body collapsing down onto you as he went entirely boneless, spasming atop you as the two of you pressed together and rolled through your peaks. Spurts of hot and thick cum filled you up in ropes, spattering against your walls and filling you up, so much so that each time he shafted you could feel him leaking out of you and dripping down into the bedsheets below, and he pressed multiple soft and chaste kisses to the skin that he could reach, before letting out a deep and satisfied groan.Â
âOh, my God. That was the best sex Iâve ever fucking had.â He was crushing you, but you still managed to let out a small giggle underneath him, before he was rolling himself off of you and pulling out, a relieved sigh on your lips as he did. âYouâre incredible, absolutely amazing, the best. Just the best. Fuck, I canât wait to do that again, and just be with you. This is going to be great, an-â
You pressed up to push your lips against his, and he let out a soft sound when you did, before his lips were curling up in a smile and he was kissing you back as best he could.
âYou were rambling. Youâre even more affectionate after sex.â
âAre you complaining?â
âNo! God, no, I love it.â You rubbed the tip of your nose with his, before you were sitting up and grumbling at the protests your body made as you did. âI like it when youâre all clingy and needy, it makes me feel less weird about it when I do the same to you.â
âI like it when you get all touchy, and now I can really do something about it, because let me tell you, all those cute time that youâd come over and just want to cuddle me while I was cooking for us or when youâd hold my hand when we went shopping or lean into me when youâre tired? I wanted to kiss you so fucking badly, and now I can.â Long fingers brushed sweaty and matted hair out of your face, and he pressed his lips to your forehead, before standing up and shucking off the jeans that were still pooled around his calves, kicking off all the remnants of his clothing.Â
âI canât wait, because a little secret would be that I wanted you to kiss me in all of those times, too.â
âGood to know, princess.â You hummed, accepting the hands he was holding out to you, and his eyes scanned along your naked form, swallowing thickly and averting his eyes when he caught sight of the mess leaking out of you. âWe should get cleaned up, then you can have those cuddles I promised you.â
âBath time, then a movie?â
âSounds perfect to me.â

Shitty Slasher Film (Spencer Reid + gn!MC - platonic)
Summary: SPOILERS FOR SEASON 8 (and minor season 7 spoilers but I figure if youâve seen season 8 youâve probably seen season 7 already lmao)Â MC and Spencer decide to go see a slasher film, but it takes a turn for the worse when the killer begins to stalk his victim.Â
Content: Hurt/Comfort (because literally what else do I write at this point)
Warnings: Descriptions of violence, depressive thoughts, and swearing
MCâs name and pronouns: Neither explicitly mentioned
Word Count: 2285
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The plan was simple.
We were going to see a new horror movie in the theaters - it seemed similar to a slasher film that Morgan, Garcia, Reid and I had seen like six or seven months ago, so I didnât think anything of it when we booked the tickets. Morgan and Garcia couldnât make it tonight, unfortunately, but we still elected to go on our own, thinking it would be a fun little outing. That was, until the film started.
The lights came up on a woman, walking through a back alley alone, at night. Typical. I even glanced over at Spencer and rolled my eyes a bit, and he grinned at the stereotypical horror movie trope.
She died, of course, and for the first half of the movie I genuinely thought it was going to be exactly what we assumed. We were laughing at the ridiculousness of it all, with the stupid special effects and the subpar acting. But everything went off the rails after the first half of the movie.
The killer had revealed his primary target, his endgame, and - much to my horror - he had begun to stalk her.
Scenes of her creating a disguise, moving houses, throwing away her phone, spun a dark web that I didnât ever want to think about. But I had more pressing things to worry about than my fear at a movie that was literally intended to make you scared.
I glanced over at Spencer, and I could tell that his breathing had picked up. His hands were gripping the arms of the chair, knuckles as white as his face had turned. I put a hand over his, and his attention snapped to me.
âHey, are you alright?â I asked him. It was a stupid question, and one I already knew the answer to, but it was the first thing I could think to say. He looked like he was weighing his options for a moment before he shook his head.
âDo you want to leave?â I followed. He nodded, eyes wild, and we quickly grabbed our bags and left, just as the stalker had pulled a gun on his victim. Spencer took one last look at the screen, watching with wide eyes as the victim begged for her life. It was like a trainwreck; he couldnât take his eyes off the movie, and I couldnât take my eyes off him as the stalker pulled the trigger, and the woman crumpled to the ground. He practically jumped out of his skin when the gunshots fired, and I grabbed his arm to usher him out.
I didnât realize the full extent of his panic until we made it out of the theater, bursting through the doors into the significantly brighter lights of the hallway. He immediately sat down on the couch near the doors, head in his hands, breathing rapidly.
âOk, youâve gotta breathe, Reid. Youâve gotta breathe, alright? In through your nose, out through your mouth, can you do that?â I adjusted my breathing to fit the pattern, and saw that he had started to slow his as well. âGood, ok⊠we can sit here for as long as you need to, just focus on your breathing.â
He gave me an almost imperceptible nod, continuing to breathe slowly before lifting his head from his hands. His eyes were red, and it was clear heâd been trying to fight off tears.
âReid, Iâm so sorry -â
It was at that moment that he cut me off with a hug, tucking his head in the crook of my neck as I felt his body lightly shake with sobs. After a second I hugged him back, not used to physical affection from him, but not opposed as long as he was ok with it.
âIt reminded you too much of Maeve, didnât it?â I asked, trying to ensure that the story I had in my head was correct. He nodded, his breath coming in short gasps again, and I hugged him a bit tighter. âReid, Iâm so sorry, I never wouldâve suggested this movie if Iâd known the turn the story was going to take.â
He shook his head, sucking in deep breaths before finally attempting to speak. âNo, no, itâs ok, I know that you wouldnât have done this on purpose. Itâs justâŠâ
He trailed off, but I knew what he was trying to say. âI was there that day, Reid. I know how much she meant to you.â
âThe girl in the movie kind of looked like her. You know? Same hair, same face shape⊠when I saw the fear in her eyes, all I could imagine was Maeve, terrified, with a gun to her head. The woman I love - loved. The woman I loved. Scared, and alone.â
âOh, Reid⊠you know itâs not your fault, right? You did everything you could to save her.â
âNo. No, I didnât. I shouldâve closed my eyes, I shouldâve tackled Diane - hell, I shouldâve shot that bitch the minute I walked into the room! Instead I stood there. I stood there while the woman I loved died in front of me, and I didnât do anything to stop it.â
âSpencer.â I put my hands on his shoulders, pulling back from the hug to look into his eyes. âYou absolutely cannot blame yourself for this. What happened to Maeve was horrible, but it was not your fault. And you canât live your life with that on your conscience.â
âMaybe I deserve to.â His voice was soft as he tucked his head back into the crook of my neck, and I put my arms around him, one hand lightly rubbing his back. My heart broke for the man in my arms - my best friend - as he sniffled, a few stray tears still trickling down his face.
âYou donât deserve to live with that kind of guilt, Spencer. Guilt for something you didnât even do. And Iâm so, so sorry that you feel that way. And Iâm so sorry about what happened.â
âSorry doesnât make it go away,â He argued, his voice muffled by the fabric of my t-shirt, âSorry doesnât bring her back.â
I heard his voice hitch when he said it, and I held him a bit tighter. âI know it doesnât.â
He was silent for a moment before he spoke again, his voice thick with tears begging to be released. âI just wish I could bring her back.â
It was as if saying it broke something in him, and I felt his body shake as he cried again, consumed by grief and guilt unlike anything I could ever imagine. He was usually so closed off about his emotions that having him crying in my arms was a rare occurrence, even after years of friendship. The last time he was like this was after Emilyâs⊠âdeath,â and even that wasnât near as intense.
I wasnât sure how long we sat on that bench, the orange lights of the movie theater hallway creating a strange liminal sensation as I held Spencer, finally releasing the emotions heâd clearly been pushing away since Maeveâs death.
Eventually, he stopped crying, his breathing returning to something close to normal, and he pulled away from me, his eyes red from tears.
âIâm sor -â
âNope, do not even start to apologize. Thereâs nothing to apologize for.â
He closed his mouth, contemplating saying something else for a second before nodding, hugging me again.
âThank you.â
âOf course, Reid. Do you want to go back to my place? We can order a pizza, and watch a movie - something we know this time. If you need to be alone, I understand, but -â
He shook his head. âIâd like that.â
âGood,â I sucked in a deep breath, trying to steady my own breathing after everything that just happened, âGood. Are you ok to walk to the car?â
âYeah⊠Iâm not sure how talkative Iâm going to be tonight thoughâŠâ He kind of trailed off, clearly drained, but not wanting to be alone.
âI understand; you know thereâs no expectations with me, Reid. If you want to just wrap yourself up in a blanket and eat junk food, I get it. I just want to be there, to make sure that youâre ok.â
He gave me a small smile, and I grinned, grabbing his hand to help him off the bench. We made our way out to my car, and I climbed in, starting it before turning on the radio.
Spencer was pretty much silent the entire drive back to my apartment, the noise in the car mostly consisting of the music and my less than stellar singing. When we finally pulled into the complex, we headed upstairs to my place.
âIâm gonna order the food. Do you wanna find something on Netflix you like?â I asked as I unlocked the door. He nodded, and I threw my keys on the kitchen counter, putting in the pizza order on my computer. I saw him grab a blanket from the basket in the living room, wrapping it around his shoulders and plopping down on my couch.
I expected to return to the living room to see whatever movie we were watching cued up on the TV. Instead, I saw Spencer, staring at the wall across from him, remote untouched on the coffee table.
âHey,â I sat down next to him, gently putting one hand on his shoulder, âIs there anything else you want to talk about?â
He was silent for a moment, and I could see the mental battle he was fighting. Eventually, he spoke, his voice barely above a whisper.
âIâm afraid⊠Iâm afraid that if I allow myself to grieve, if I allow myself to think about what happened, I wonât be able to stop. Itâs been almost four months, I thought the pain would be gone by now. But it isnât, itâs⊠I just miss her. I miss her so much.â
âI know, Reid. I know.â
He leaned into me, and I didnât hesitate to wrap my arms around him, the thoughts of pizza and a movie completely abandoned in my mind. Instead, all of my attention was on Spencer as he spoke again.
âOn the last case, Rossi talked to me. I told him that I wasnât sleeping because whenever I did, I would dream of her. Of Maeve. And everytime I saw her, I felt nothing but relief flooding my mind. I told him how she would always ask me to dance, and how I always said no. I never even got to hold her when she was alive, and I was scared that if I gave into the fantasy, I would be lost forever,â He took in a shaky breath before he continued, âAnd he said I should. He said, âjust let it happen, Spencer.â So I did. I danced with her, I held her, and when I woke up, she was all I could think about. The way it felt to wrap my arms around her, the way her head fit perfectly into the crook of my neck while we danced. It took another day before I could think about anything but her, before I could stop wallowing in my grief enough to function. And since that night, I havenât allowed myself to give into the fantasy again, the fantasy of having her back. I think⊠I think that if I let it happen again, I wonât be able to come back from it. Itâll just consume me.â
âSpencerâŠâ I trailed off, unsure of what to say. He just shook his head, telling me I didnât need to say anything as we sat there on my couch in silence. He wasnât crying, he hadnât cried since we left the theater. He was just⊠hollow. Everything that heâd been trying to repress - to compartmentalize - had finally caught up to him, in the form of a shitty slasher movie that weâd gotten cheap tickets to see.
I held him tighter, wishing that I could figure out something to say to comfort him, to take away his pain. But I knew there was nothing I could do. Nothing I could do but just be there.
âHave you ever considered talking to someone? Like, not someone from the team - a professional?â I asked.
âIâve thought about it. But⊠weâre experts in human behavior, you know? Whatâs a therapist going to be able to tell me that I canât already profile myself?â
âWell, it might be helpful to have a licensed professional to talk to about this stuff. Someone who can actually give you advice on how to handle your emotions. Because as much as I am absolutely here for you no matter what, Iâm afraid Iâm not great at mental health advice.â
âYeah⊠maybe.â He sounded dubious about the idea, and while I wanted to encourage him further, I didnât want to push him today. So I settled for just gently rubbing his back as he laid in my arms, staring at the wall. Eventually, the doorbell rang, and I got up to get the pizza, bringing it back into the living room and setting it down on the coffee table. By now, heâd sat up, the blanket still pulled around his shoulders, but at least a bit more present.
âThank you,â He said, for the second time that day. I just smiled at him.
âOf course. I love you, Reid. And Iâm always here, whatever you need.â
âI love you too,â He gave me a small smile back before turning his attention to the coffee table, âBut I also love food - Iâm starving.â
I laughed as I handed him a plate, joining him on the couch as we both dug in. Â

âHere you go, a glass of water for you and a glass of wine for me.â you said as you place his Lego Movie glass down on his desk. Spencer didnât raise his eyes from the case file he has been reading but didnât hold back on his comments.
âYou really should drink more water Y/N,â which you replied, faking an offended voice. âHey, I drink enough water, okay?âÂ
âFunny you say that, because I actually have been keeping track of your water intake. You drank 1.26 litres of water today and with your daily intake of 2 cups of coffee, several cups of tea and well, alcohol I can guarantee you that isnât enough.â Spencer said as he smirked proudly.Â
You rolled your eyes at his smug face. âHow- ugh fine Spencer, I will drink more water,â you admitted . âAfter I drink this glass of wine.â It was your turn to smile now.Â
He furrowed his eyebrows and turned to the case file he was studying while you finally got to relax and turn to your book on his nice sofa.Â
You have been doing this with him a lot. Hang out. Casually. In silence. You guys would come back from a case, you would carpool to yours or his place and then watch a movie, have dinner (or breakfast, depending on what time you guys land in D.C) or this. You would relax together, enjoying each other's company silently.Â
It started after a very hard case, not long before you started and the resident genius offered to take you home because he assessed that you would probably break down, said something along the lines of how dangerous it is to drive while crying. He wasnât the best or the most experienced driver out there but he wanted to make sure you got home safely.Â
You were very shaken up that day, not having seen a brutal murder-suicide happen before your eyes in your life, so you took up his offer and followed after him to the parking lot. Both of you walked quietly to your car and when you got to it you just stood there.Not moving a muscle, just out of it. Spencer was sure he made the right choice to offer his help. Spencer slowly raised his hand and touched your arm slowly. âY/N, the keys.â You were so zoned out that you flinched when he touched you.
âItâs okay, Iâm sorry Y/N, itâs just me. Can you hand me the keys?â said Spencer with the softest voice he can make. âOh, sorry,â You said with a dead tone then started scrambling through your bag. You couldnt find them. You were sure you were hearing the jingling sound they made as they rolled around your bag but you couldn't get your hands on them for the life of you. Thatâs when you started crying.Â
Spencer wasnât the best when the case was touching people but he had to get you out of that parking lot and get you to the safety of your home. He shook his hands to remind himself that you were a clean person and he could touch you, then reached for your handbag. He slowly took it out of your hands and put it on the hood of your car.Â
âSpen-- Spencer- Iâm- Iâm really,â you tried to apologise in between you sobs.
âY/N, shh, Iâm right here and you have nothing to be sorry about,â Thatâs when he wrapped his arms around you and you started sobbing on his very nice sweater vest. He had put one hand on your back that he rubbed softly and one on your head that pushed into his chest like he was trying to get you to hide in there. He didnât even realise how naturally affectionate he was, but you did.Â
The waterfalls that are your eyes were still running but you calmed down a little and the embarrassment of getting your mucus,ugh, on your very new colleague was starting to dawn on you.
âSpencer, Iâm fine, letâs just go home, okay?â You managed to muster out while you squeezed yourself out of his embrace and tried to hide your face from him. You reached for your bag and once again out your hands into it looking for your keys. There they were, stuck underneath some papers that you threw in your bag.Â
Spencer stood there, doubting himself. Did he cross the line? Was hugging you unprofessional? Did he make you uncomfortable? He had once read a research about hugs calming down the sympathetic nervous system under distress so he tried to help you calm down a little. It wasnât his intent to make you uncomfortable. Oh god, he thought to himself, now Y/N thinks Iâm weird too.Â
He was pulled out of his little freak out by Y/N handing him the keys. He pushed his lips together in a really awkward smile and started stepping towards the driverâs side.
The drive was pretty weird. He drove too carefully and there was his colleague silently crying in the next seat to him. His mind was still swarming with the ideas of him doubting his choice of hugging Y/N, her quiet voice took him out of it. âSpencer, I canât thank you enough. You really helped and I know Iâm not very good with words but I really do appreciate this.âÂ
Spencer was shocked. He wasnât expecting this. He wasn't expecting a talk at all. So he stammered trying to answer her. âUh, yeah- yeah, sure,âÂ
While his conscious mind was going between doubting himself and oh shit, sheâs crying, what do i do, his subconscious mind had led him to his house. He realized it when he was at the last traffic lights before home.
âY/N, Iâm afraid I drove all the way to my house,â
She raised her head from her hands on her knees slowly and looked around her, clueless. Spencer was quick to apologise. âIâll turn around at the next U-turn and weâll get to your place. What's your address?â
You didnât want to bother him driving all this way and back, also you were starving and sleepy. âSpencer, if you donât mind, can we go up to your place? I donât really wanna bother you with driving all the way to mine, also I am so tired and I assume you are too?â
Y/N kept surprising Spencer tonight. âYeah, yeah thatâs fine- Yeah, we can order takeout too, yeah, yes.â She almost giggled at his nervousness.
He pulled up to the parking spot of his apartment complex and you two silently walked up the stairs to his apartment. He welcomed you in, âSo, this is my place, ugh so sorry this is very messy,âÂ
Spencer was very skittish about touching people and letting people into his place. He did both of them with you that night and he was weirdly okay with it. Â
âItâs perfectly fine Reid, hell, looks a lot neater than mine honestly.â You smiled while you awkwardly stood in the entrance. Spencer had already taken his coat off and was walking into the depths of his house. He kinda yelled from across the house, âPlease come in Y/N, I will be there in just a second to take your coat. What do you wanna eat? I know this Indian place that makes great chicken tendoori that delivers.â His voice was getting closer and closer while he got back to his living room.Â
âSpencer, I am a vegetarian.â you said while he took your coat and hung it over a chair.
âOh, sorry, I somehow didnât know, but they should have vegetarian items on the menu, let me go find it for you. Do you want a drink? I have water, coffee, all kinds of tea you can ask for annnd,â He was scrambling through his kitchen cabinets now. âWine, yeah, what can i get you?âÂ
âWine would be nice,â you kind of yelled from the living room. You did not want to yell but you also didn't want to follow him around or go looking for him, invading his place.Â
He came after a few minutes, a glass of water and a menu, you assumed, in one hand and your glass of wine in the other.
âHere you go, a glass of water for me and a glass of wine for you, are you sure you donât want a glass of water?â He put the classes on the coffee table and handed you the menu. âWhile Iâm not completely sold on the idea of you drinking before dinner, what do you wanna get Y/N? I can also call the pizza place thatâs close and we can get all the toppings youâd like.â When you thought he stopped talking and opened your mouth, he started to ramble again. âIâm sorry I know I said we could get all the toppings you wanted but I have issues with grouped foods and can we maybe stick to the basics and get a mushroom pizza?â He was embarrassed but you smiled so widely that his embarrassment washed away and his chest filled with relief.
âYeah, Reid, Iâd like that.âÂ
Thus began your sleepovers. That night he had given you a spare toothbrush, some of his clothes, clean towels for your shower in the morning, and his bed. Genius took the couch that night, âThatâs the least I can do,â he said, even after all he had done for you. You would much rather have him beside you but you would never admit to that and he would never agree to it anyways.Â
Second time you two had a sleepover, it was Reid who was struggling and you offered your sweet but lonely home to him. This kept going on between you two, there were rarely nights where you slept at your place alone.Â
Spencer called you from his grocery store run one day, asked you about your shampoo brand. And would you rather use a vanilla or lavender body wash.Â
You texted him asking about his after-shave and razor brand he uses after he slept over at your place and had to go to work with a scruff. You felt bad for people making fun of him and his âbig boy beardâ.Â
Spencer was really glad, while he didnât have a lot of affectionate relationships like this, he didnât mind having you around at all. You were really glad, you didnât go to bed in a lonely house, that you made really good friends with Dr. Spencer Reid.
You finished your wine while flipping pages on your book and your eyelids started to feel heavy. âSpencer, Iâm really sleepy,âÂ
He had moved to the end of the couch with you, you were lying down but your legs were barely close to him.
âIâll be done in just a second and Iâll let u sleep Y/N,âÂ
You were feeling the wine and you felt courageous that night. You carefully got up to your knees and crawled towards him on the sofa. When you got to him you slightly nudged his arm to let you in and he lifted his arm to embrace you. âOh, hi,â he said. âI thought you were sleepy.â Was there a smile in his voice or were you just hearing things? âYeah, and I am using my favorite pillow.â Stupid wine talk.
He chuckled slightly to my words. âOkay, letâs go to bed, I was almost done anyways. I can finish it up tomorrow.â Now, you felt bad for interrupting his work. Stupid wine.
âOh, no, no, nooo! I can wait for you to finish, really, look! My eyes are all open,â You opened your eyes wide while you looked up at him in his arms. He chuckled again. Oh, that chuckle. Stupid wine.
âYou look a little flushed.â Spencer said while dragging his hand over your flaming cheeks softly. âYeah, wine does that.â No, Spencer does that, Y/N, donât lie to yourself.Â
His eyes were looking into yours so tenderly that you debated if this was a dream or not. Then something happened that raised your suspicions of dreaming.
He slowly put his lips on yours. Oh, stupid wine.Â

Title inspired by Certain Things by James Arthur. <3
You did not fall in love with Min Yoongi because he was the dreamiest man youâd ever laid eyes on.Â
You did not fall in love with Min Yoongi because he was skilled in just about everythingÂ
You did not fall in love with him because of the way his body moved when he danced, almost like telling a story.Â
It wasnât the way he remembered your coffee order or the way he stuck his tongue out when he was concentrating. It wasnât the look of concern in his eyes when you had a rough day. It wasnât the way he could (almost) always tell what you were thinking.Â
No.Â
You fell in love with Min Yoongi because he was a genuinely good person. The kind of person who made you want to be better too.Â
The way heâd do good things, the way heâd help people, especially when he thought no one was watching. You couldnât count on all your fingers and toes how many times youâd sat at your window and watched Min Yoongi help an elderly woman carry her groceries up the stairs, or insisted on taking the single mother's trash to the dumpster as she wrangled her child in the other arm. The times heâd fix things the apartment complex neglected to get around to, not even leaving a note. He never asked for any glory.Â
The only time Yoongi sought out recognition was with his music.. His kind words and actions often went unnoticed or unappreciated by others. Yoongi didnât mind that no one noticed, except you did. You noticed everything he did.Â
The day Yoongi moved in next door a year ago, you noticed his minty green hair and his contagious, gummy smile. Youâd smiled back and welcomed him to the neighborhood, offering to help if he needed it. Yoongi had politely refused your offer, telling you he did not wish to bother you. Hours later when you showed up with freshly baked cookies, he did not refuse those. That was the beginning of your friendship with Yoongi.Â
After that, you two were almost inseparable, you were in his apartment or he was in yours. You talked and laughed and watched movies and got to know each other. The few moments you didnât spend at each otherâs side, you found yourself watching Yoongi every chance you got.Â
Just last week, you had perched yourself at your window and watched with a fond smile as your neighbor and now best friend comforted a little girl whoâd approached him with tearful eyes and scuffed up knees.Â
Yoongi looked around for her mother, the single mom with too much on her plate, and when he didnât find her he scooped the small girl into his arms, and gently distracted her with stories of a princess he once knew who fell off her bike too. The little girl snuggled into Yoongiâs chest as he walked around looking for her mother, telling her how the princess got a special band aid that made her booboo stop hurting immediately, like magic.Â
The mother darted over to Yoongi, spewing out apologies and thank youâs. Sheâd only turned her back for a moment and her toddler had disappeared. Yoongi shook his head, telling her it was nothing to apologize about and that he always enjoyed the young girls company. Min Yoongi was, in your opinion, a literal angel.Â
You smiled fondly, walking away from the window and stirring the soup you'd begun cooking earlier in the evening. You often shared your food with Yoongi, knowing that if you didn't, the stubborn idiot would exist on nothing but instant noodles and americano coffee. As you stirred the pot, you let your mind drift off with thoughts of Yoongi. He had texted you late the night before while he was struggling to compose lyrics for his new song.
He sent you voice clips of him rapping verses and asked your opinion on lines for the chorus, and you'd helped him get through his little slump until he was so in the zone he forgot to reply. You'd woken up this morning to an apology text and hugged your phone to your chest, reveling in how sweet he was and thinking it was just as good as a good morning text. You knew it was stupid to pretend these interactions with Yoongi were more than friendly, but sometimes you couldnt help yourself from getting lost in the idea of being his.Â
You wanted so badly to wake up to good morning texts from him. You wanted the hugs to last longer. You wanted him to hold you. You wanted to kiss those shiny, plump lips. Feel those veiny hands on your skin. You wanted to stay with him always, every time you parted from him a part of you seemed to dim. It was as if Yoongi was the sun and you were the moon, his warmth and energy reflected off of you and fueled your own.
Your entire life didn't revolve around Yoongi, not in the least. You had other interests and friends and hobbies. But it seemed like lately, he had wiggled his way into your heart so deeply, like a budding rose, the roots of your love for him were ingrained inside of you. Lately he had taken up more and more room in your heart, occupied more and more of your thoughts. You sighed, shaking off the empty feeling inside your chest and scooped the soup into two bowls.
You made your way over to Yoongi's apartment and balanced the soup so that you could knock. Yoongi opened the door a few moments later, wearing only grey sweatpants. Your mouth went dry and your grip on the soup wobbled as you stared at his exposed chest. Yoongi reached out to steady your hands and took the bowls from you, setting them down on the coffee table by the couch.
''Sorry I just got out of the shower. Let me go put a shirt on.'' Yoongi blushed, scurrying down the hallway and leaving you speechless at the entry.
You collected yourself, slowly shutting the door behind you and grabbing two spoons from his kitchen before sitting down on the sofa. Yoongi reappeared, fully clothed. You weren't sure if you were thankful or disappointed.    Â
''This smells amazing!'' he praised. ''I was just about to make some instant noodles but this is so much better. Thank you!''
''How many times do I have to tell you that you can't survive on instant noodles and coffee?'' you rolled your eyes.
''I don't know how to cook.'' he shrugged.
''I have offered to teach you a million times.'' you threw back at him.
''But if I learned how to cook you wouldn't cook for me anymore.'' he pouted playfully , knocking his shoulder into yours.Â
''Big baby.'' you muttered, not bothering to hide the smile on your face. ''What would you do without me?''
''Probably die.'' he laughed. ''You're my best friend, I kind of need you.''
''Awww, Yoongi!'' you hugged him.
''Yeah yeah.'' he laughed, wrapping an arm around you in return. ''Just don't go anywhere, okay?''
''I won't, I promise.'' you grinned. ''Who else is going to feed you?''
''My point exactly.'' he winked, spooning more soup into his mouth and closing his eyes happily. âUgh. Marry me.â He joked.
âYou wish.â You laughed, trying to hide the heat rising in your cheeks.Â
You wished.Â
You chucked your coat off and threw it haphazardly on the coat rack then flopped onto the couch with a loud groan. You should have called in. You'd woken up late, your alarm didn't go off. You didn't have time to do your makeup if you wanted to shower, which you really needed to. So you'd gone to work looking like a troll, and things only spiraled downhill from there. Â
Your boss had called you out in front of everyone at the staff meeting for being late to work, using you as an example for the new attendance point system. Snide remarks were tossed your way from various grumpy people which you attempted to take in stride. Then, in the breakroom you'd spilled coffee all down the front of your peach colored dress.Â
You had texted Yoongi about your less than stellar morning and asked if he was having a better day. He talked you through your meltdown, trying to convince you that the universe wasn't out to get you and the world wasn't cruel and unjust. He'd been the reason you made it through the work day, albeit by the skin of your teeth. Your whole body dragged on the way home and all you wanted was to see Yoongi's smile but he had promised a friend he'd go drinking with them.Â
You flung yourself off the couch and changed into a baggy t-shirt and a pair of pajama shorts. You put on your favorite avocado face mask and relaxed with a lavender candle burning on the coffee table. You'd taken about two deep breaths when you heard soft tapping on your front door. You whined out loud and got up, padding over to the door and flinging it open.
The poor teenager standing at your door jumped in surprise, almost dropping the pizza he was holding. Eyes wide, he stepped back a bit. Your brows furrowed in confusion.Â
âSorry. Can I help you?â you asked as sweetly as you could, guilt flooding your chest.
âLarge pizza for Y/N Y/L/N? â he questioned nervously.
âBut I didn't order any-â you began to explain before you were cut off.
âSorry! Sorry I thought I'd be back in time!â Yoongi huffed, jogging up to you and the poor delivery kid.Â
Yoongi took some cash out of his wallet and paid the young man before thanking him as he took the pizza and turned to you with a smile. He was also holding a white paper sack you couldn't identify and you shot him a quizzical look.
âHey there Shrek.â he laughed at your bright green face mask which you had honestly forgotten about.Â
You were thankful it hid your blush as you swatted at his arm in protest.
 âI thought you had plans.â you stated, ignoring his comment.
âI cancelled them.â he shrugged, moving past you to enter your apartment and set the pizza down on the coffee table.
âWhy?â you asked, shutting the door and following him in.
âSounded like you needed some cheering up.â Yoongi smiled, opening the paper bag and pulling out your favorite wine.
âUgh, a man after my own heart.â you joked.
Yoongi just chuckled and uncorked the bottle, walking into your kitchen and pulling two wine glasses from the cabinet like he lived there. He poured you both a glass and sat next to you on the couch.
âI am fully aware that I am going to regret this decision, but I have decided that to cheer you up, we can watch whatever movie you want.â he told you.
Your eyes widened in excitement.
âAny movie I want?â you confirmed, âyou won't complain?â
âOne time only offer. Whatever movie you want.â he grinned at the childlike response.
âHarvard here we come!â you giggled, snatching up the remote and selecting Legally Blonde.
You glanced over at Yoongi, waiting for a snarky comment. He only gave you a pained smile. You snuggled into the couch with your wine in one hand and a slice of pizza in the other, feeling content and happy. Yoongi had turned the worst day into one of the best, simply by being who he was: kind and thoughtful.
âThank you, Yoongi.â you said softly.
âNo need to thank me. That's what friends are for.â he smiled, throwing an arm around your shoulders and leaning in for a quick squeeze.Â
Yoongi left his arm around your shoulder while you two watched the movie, and you had never been more comfortable than you were snuggled into Yoongi's side with your wine and pizza and strong leading female character centered movie. With Min Yoongi by your side, maybe the world wasn't so bad after all.
Today was Yoongiâs birthday. Heâd gone to lunch with his family the day before and had planned to spend the day with you once he got off work. You looked over at your coffee table, grinning at his gift that youâd wrapped perfectly, even put a pretty bow on top. Youâd baked him a cake, which was iced and ready for candles. You opened the drawer, but did not find candles.Â
Cursing under your breath, you checked the time before rushing out the door and running over to the small shopping center across the street from your apartment complex. You gave a friendly wave to the cashier, a college aged girl who worked there three days a week. You grabbed candles and a lighter then made your way over, making small talk with her and asking about classes.
âThank god finals are almost over. Theyâre killing me.â She whined as you swiped your card.Â
âHang in there, itâs almost over!â You encouraged her and she groaned but laughed.
You made your way back to your apartment complex, thinking about Yoongi and his face when he inevitably saw what youâd bought him. You didnât notice the clouds turning an angry gray. You did notice however, when the rain immediately started pelting down, drenching you in seconds. You squealed, holding your shopping bag above your head and jogging towards your apartment.Â
Suddenly, the rain stopped assaulting you, and you looked up to find Min Yoongi laughing as he held an umbrella over both of your heads. Despite his eyes being the darkest color youâd ever seen, they shone with kindness.Â
âYoongi.â You grinned in surprise, âyouâre home early!â
âYeah, they let me go early for my birthday.â He wiggled his eyebrows playfully.
âWell letâs party!â You beamed up at him.Â
The two of you ascended the staircase and made your way into your apartment. You shrugged off your soaked jacket and hung it up. Yoongi cleared his throat uncomfortably, looking anywhere but at you.
âWhatâs wrong?â You asked.
âI-uh... your shirt.â He mumbled, apples of his cheeks dusted with a light pink flush.Â
You looked down, cheeks burning as you realized your white t shirt was soaked through, revealing your lacy pink bra. You squeaked, arms darting out to cover your chest. You disappeared into your room, embarrassment flooding your face as you changed. Reappearing in front of Yoongi fully covered, you couldnât meet his eyes.
âHey, itâs okay, donât be embarrassed.â He comforted you with a hand on your shoulder.Â
The skin there burned. When you didnât say anything, Yoongi pulled you into a hug, strong arms wrapping around your waist and pulling you into his warm chest. You let the warmth of his embrace comfort you for a moment before pulling away and putting the candles in his cake and lighting them before walking it over to him.
âHappy birthday to you, happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Yoongi! Happy birthday to you!âÂ
Yoongiâs gummy smile graced his lips before he closed his eyes and blew out the candles.Â
âWhat did you wish for?â You asked, leaning in and wiggling your eyebrows.Â
âIf I tell you it wonât come true!â He chuckled.
You sighed dramatically with a smile and cut the cake into slices, handing him the biggest one. Yoongi took one bite and threw his head back with a groan.Â
âThis is delicious, Y/N. Thank you so much.â He praised.Â
Your heart skipped a beat and you grabbed the neatly wrapped present from beside the couch, holding it out to him.Â
âI told you not to buy me anything.â He glared jokingly at you.Â
âJust open it.â You giggled.Â
Yoongi took his time opening the gift, carefully peeling back the paper in an attempt to keep it whole and make less of a mess for you, thoughtful man that he was. He froze when he saw the box.Â
âYou didnât.â He gasped.
Your giddy laughter was your only response.Â
âThese are... they... theyre too much, Y/N. I canât accept them.â He sighed regretfully.Â
âYou can and you will. You deserve something special on your special day! Itâs about time someone pays you back for everything you do.â You smiled encouragingly.Â
âThe cake was more than enough.â He argued, but he couldnât take his eyes off of the box in his lap.Â
They were the wireless noise cancelling headphones heâd been drooling over for months, ever since the promo came out on Instagram. Heâd been salivating when he showed you the ad for them, and you started picking up a few extra shifts here and there to put back money for them. They were a couple hundred dollars but you wouldâve saved up thousands just to see the look that adorned Yoongiâs face in that moment.Â
âThank you... so much. Iâll pay you back for these. Iâll take you to dinner. Iâll-â he began but you cut him off.Â
âDonât even think about it. Just take them. If you really wanna pay me back, write me a song.â You grinned.Â
âI will.â Yoongi promised, engulfing you in a tight hug. âThank you.â Left his lips in a whisper over and over. âThank you. Thank you. Thank you.â
He pulled back and held you at arms length, eyes trained on your face. His gaze roamed over your features, drinking you in. His eyes searched yours for a moment before his gaze flicked to your lips. You waited with bated breath.Â
âY/N?â Yoongi's voice was barely above a whisper.Â
âHmm?â
âCan I kiss you?â He questioned quietly, carefully.Â
âPlease.âÂ
His hand came up to gently cup your cheek. He angled his head and closed the distance between you. The moment his lips pressed against yours, it felt like coming home. He held you close, and youâd never felt so safe. Your heart hammered in your chest as your arms wrapped around his neck, fingers gently threading through his hair. Yoongiâs arms found purchase on your hips and he pressed himself closer to you, his tongue sneaking out and gliding along your lips. You parted them, and he deepened the kiss. You werenât aware that your grip on his hair had tightened until Yoongi pulled back, resting his forehead against your own with labored breathing.
âIâm trying really hard to be respectful and not to push you, but youâre making it kinda hard pulling on my hair like that.â he admitted breathlessly. You could feel the thickness of him pressing into you.
âWhat if I want you to?â you asked quietly, looking up at him from beneath your lashes.
Yoongi sucked in a surprised breath, his eyes searching yours almost frantically for a sign of doubt. When he found none, he interlaced his fingers into yours.
âAre you sure?â he pondered.
âIâve never been more sure of anything or anyone.â you admitted, biting down on your lip nervously.
âIs this- Are you- I donât think I can do this if itâs just a one time thing.â Yoongi sighed remorsefully.Â
âI donât want it to be.â you reply, gently running a hand up and down his arm comfortingly. âYoongi I want you. In every possible way. Youâre my best friend. I love you. Iâm in love with you. I have been for a while.âÂ
âIâm in love with you too.â he whispered, like a secret heâd been dying to tell you. âBe mine?â
âOh Yoongi baby, Iâve always been yours.â you giggled, pulling him in for a tender kiss.
Yoongi kissed you back, slowly. He took his time, exploring your mouth, relishing in the taste of you. You tasted a bit like the cake youâd both consumed not long ago, but also just distinctively...you. Yoongi loved the way you tasted, and he wondered idly if other areas of your body tasted just as sweet.
Gripping you by the hips, Yoongi pulled you up against him and you wrapped your legs around his torso as he carried you towards your bedroom. Your hands gripped his biceps and he barely had to look where he was going, so familiar with your apartment since he practically lived there. He hoped to become as familiar with your body and how you ticked as he was with everything else about you. You could feel him pressing up against your core as he carried you, the friction causing arousal to pool.Â
Yoongi placed you on the mattress gently, his body moving to hover over yours. He gazed down at you with longing in his onyx eyes, but it wasnât just longing. He yearned for you, needed you, you knew this because you felt it too. The way he looked into your eyes mirrored your own expression. You were so desperately in love with Min Yoongi, and by some miracle, he felt the same way.
âI have dreamt about this moment for so long.â he admitted sheepishly, âI almost canât believe this is real.â
âMe either. I canât believe youâre here.â you giggled, letting a hand come up to softly caress his face, then push his hair out of his eyes.
âIâm not going to lie, I thought I was going to have to leave when your shirt was wet and I saw your bra. I didnât want you to see my hard-on.â he laughed.
You covered your face and giggled in embarrassment, but Yoongiâs hands covered yours and pulled them away from your face, holding them on either side of your head.
âDonât hide from me. Donât ever hide any part of yourself from me. You are so beautiful, Y/N. I adore everything about you.â Yoongi cooed, pressing a soft kiss to your cheek.Â
âDid you knowâŠâ he ghosted his lips to the other cheek. âThatâŠâ his tender assault moved to your forehead as he placed a kiss to it. âIâŠâ his lips brushed the tip of your nose. âlove you.â he smiled, kissing your lips.
âI love you too, so much.â you giggled, kissing him back and moving closer to him, his warm embrace cradling you.Â
Something shifted, and Yoongiâs kisses got deeper, needier. His body lowered to lay flush against yours, but he was careful not to squish you. His erection pressed firmly into your core as he slowly rutted his hips into yours. A quiet moan left your lips at the swivel of his hips against yours and Yoongiâs kisses began to descend, his lips now working against the skin of your neck, sucking and nipping at the flesh.Â
His fingers crept up to the hem of your dress, and he tugged gently on it. You lifted yourself, tugging it off and tossing it across the room. Yoongi had seen you in bathing suits that had covered the same amount of skin, but this was different and it had heat flooding your cheeks. You took a deep breath and willed all of your courage and unhooked your bra, letting it slip down your shoulders before tossing it aside as well, leaving you only in your panties.Â
Yoongiâs jaw went slack as he stared at your breasts. You wanted to cover them, wanted to hide, but this was Yoongi. You trusted him with every part of you.Â
âYouâre so beautiful, Y/N.â he stated in awe.
His head dipped down and his mouth wrapped around your nipple, his tongue flicking over the nub. Your back arched and your whimpers got louder when he began to suck. His large hand reached up to knead and tweak the other breast. Your body responded immediately, hips bucking up into Yoongiâs. You gripped his shirt and tugged, mumbling âoff.â Yoongi obliged, tearing the fabric off and tossing it away in one fluid motion.
Your mouth watered, eyes roaming his ivory skin, the smooth planes of his flat stomach, poofing out just a little. He was perfect. Yoongiâs cheeks were dusted pink again and you leaned up, placing soft kisses to his tummy. Yoongi wound his hands gently in your hair, watery eyes watching you as you worshipped his body the way he deserved. Your lips ghosted over his chest and you could feel his heart racing beneath your touch.
âYouâre so perfect.â you cooed.
Yoongi covered his mouth to stifle a laugh, and you grinned up at him. His hands came down to cup your face gently, and you leaned into his touch before urging him backwards until he was lying on his back. You made quick work of his belt and zipper, pulling his slacks down and tossing them haphazardly away. You watched his face for a reaction, and he bit his lip to conceal a nervous smile. Your heart fluttered in your chest at how adorable he was.Â
Despite the fondness filling your chest, you couldnât help but feel warmth farther down when your eyes roamed over the tent in Yoongiâs boxers. You reached out and cupped your hand over his hardened member, palming him over his boxers. Yoongi let out a low groan at your actions, his hand gripping at the duvet cover. You slowly pulled the boxers off his body,Â
Yoongiâs length sprung free once his boxers were removed and it rested against his stomach, thick, hard, and leaking. You peppered soft kisses along the vein, bringing a groan out of Yoongi. Your tongue snuck out and cautiously slid across the tip of his penis, and his breath stuttered. You smiled to yourself, then took him in your mouth. Yoongi couldn't tear his eyes away from you, mesmerized by the sight of your lips wrapped around his cock. He'd had a million dreams about this very moment, but none of them compared to the way it felt to have his cock in your mouth.Â
It was almost too much for Yoongi, the way you were bobbing your head along his length, twirling your tongue around, massaging his balls with the perfect amount of pressure. It wasn't all sensual, he could see the adoration in your eyes. It made his heart swell with joy. Â Other parts of him were swelling as well as he neared his high. His hips involuntarily jerked, apologies tumbling from his reddened lips but you didn't slow down. You wanted to make him feel good, reward him for all the things he did for everyone else.
âY/N, I..I'm gonna-â Yoongi warned.
You took the opportunity to take him deeper down your throat, swallowing around him. That sent Yoongi over the edge, echoes of your name falling from his lips, his body twitching as he spilled his seed down your throat. Yoongi took a shaky breath and gazed down at you in awe as you licked your lips clean after swallowing his load.Â
 âYour turn.â He smiled, guiding you to lay on your back while he settled himself between your thighs, placing teasing kisses along the skin there.
He pulled your panties down your legs and licked his lips at the sight of your soaking cunt presented to him. Yoongi didnât waste any time, bringing his lips to your folds and letting his tongue dart out to lick at your clit. You gasped, spreading your legs further apart, inviting him in. He slowly slipped one finger in your heat, working it and curling to hit that sweet spot that had you drooling.Â
His lips wrapped around your clit and he sucked before using his tongue to attack the sensitive bundle of nerves. You knew Yoongi could move his tongue quickly based on every rap youâd heard him recite and youâd daydreamed about how that would translate to eating you out but his skills surpassed your imagination and he had you close to cumming in under a minute. He slowly worked more fingers in, stretching your tight hole while he seemed to recite spells on your clit with his tongue.Â
No sooner than Yoongi added a third finger, you were careening off the edge, pleasure washing over you and Yoongi worked you through it, drinking up all of your juices and leaving a soft peck on your clit as you came down, which had your body jolting. He reached down to his jeans and pulled out a condom.Â
âAre you still sure about this?â He asked tentatively.Â
âYes, Iâm sure.â You said with absolute certainty.Â
Yoongi crawled up your body, leaving sweet kisses as he made his way to hover over you until you were face to face. He bit his plush lip, looking into your eyes with so much longing it almost hurt to return his gaze. He reached up to brush a stray lock of hair from your face, leaving his large hands on your cheek, gently rubbing his thumb back and forth. You leaned up and captured his lips with your own, and he melted into the kiss, immediately deepening it. His hands travelled down your neck, his fingertips tenderly brushing against the skin of your arms until he found your hands, resting beside your head. He interlaced your fingers together as he finally, finally entered you.Â
You gasped into his mouth, squeezing his hand while you focused on the feeling of finally being filled by the man of your dreams. Yoongi felt perfect inside of you, filling you up perfectly as if he was made for you and you were made for him. He stretched you in all the right ways and feeling him pressed up against your walls had your head spinning.Â
'' You okay?'' Yoongi asked, stilling inside of you.
''Yes.'' you whispered breathlessly. ''You feel so good, Yoongi. Please.''
Yoongi began to slowly move inside you, taking his time and making sure not to hurt you. His hips met yours as he bottomed out and he let out a shaky breath, watching your eyes for any sign of discomfort. You smiled up at him, pecking his lips quickly. Yoongi was amazed at how brightly your eyes shined when you looked at him. His thrusts started picking up pace, your soft noises spurring him on.Â
The two of you shared sweet kisses as he thrust in and out of your aching heat. Your noises gradually got louder, the faster his thrusts got. The louder you got, the harder it was for Yoongi to keep his composure. While he'd been picking up the pace, heâd remained fairly gentle, but something in him snapped when you groaned his name, sounding particularly needy as you begged ''more.''
His hips snapped into yours in a harsh thrust , knocking the air from your lungs. Gone was the sweet love making from moments ago, instead Yoongi was plowing into you with everything he had within him. Everything he'd held back this past year seemed to be pouring out, driving him to fuck you harder, faster. If you thought Yoongi's slow passionate strokes were maddening, you were absolutely ruined by his relentless, unforgiving thrusts. Â
Your soft cries of his name were now loud moans, he had you writhing and screaming as he drove you closer to the edge with every brush of your sweet spot.Â
''Fuck, you take my cock so well baby. I have dreamed about fucking you like this for so long.'' he growled in your ear, leaving hot, wet kisses along the skin below it.
''Me...me too.'' you whined at a particularly good thrust.
''Hmmm, I bet you have.â he smirked, bringing his hand between your bodies to rub lazy circles on your clit.Â
âDid you touch yourself here?â he asked, applying more pressure to your sensitive bud. âDid you play with this pretty pussy thinking about my cock?âÂ
You nodded, overwhelmed with pleasure while Yoongi played your body like an instrument he'd practiced all his life. He knew exactly where to touch, how to rub, how to bring you to the brink of oblivion with a single stroke of his thumb. He was a damn sex wizard. Â
âYou're cute, baby girl. But I need you to tell me. Tell me how desperate you were to feel me inside you. How you thought of me while you fingered yourself.â Yoongi coaxed, bringing one nipple into his mouth and making it impossible for you to think as his tongue rolled over it.
âCat got your tongue?â Yoongi purred, licking a bold stripe across your hardened nipple, then the other. âWho makes you feel this good?â
 âYou.â you moaned, walls clenching around his cock as you got closer to release. This response did not seem to satisfy Yoongi and he shook his head.
âWhat's my name?â he prodded.
âYo...Yoongi!â you cried out as he rolled his hips harshly against your own.Â
âClose... but you can do better, baby girl. â his words were muffled by the hickeys he was sucking along your skin.
âFuck⊠daddy.â you whimpered.
âWhat was that princess? Louder.â he commanded. Â
âDaddy!â you groaned.
âCum for daddy.â Yoongi demanded.
And you did. Your orgasm crashed over you, the most intense you had ever experienced before. You body arched off the bed into Yoongis and you let out the most pornographic sound Yoongi had ever heard. Your vision went spotty and your head felt light and your face contorted in pleasure. The combined feeling of your pussy clenching around him and the sounds you were making threw Yoongi over the edge and he came shortly after you, spurts of hot cum filling the condom. Yoongi didn't think he had ever cum this much in his life. He tied the condom and threw it in your trash can.
His savage streak gone, the energy drained out of Yoongi and he fell beside you panting. You looked over to meet his gaze and you both burst into giggles. His arms came to wrap around you to pull you into his chest. You sighed contently and nuzzled into his warmth. He stroked your hair softly, leaving soft kisses anywhere he could reach. You pressed chaste kisses to the skin of his chest, too exhausted to aim for anywhere else.
âI can't believe it took us this long to get here. We're pathetic.â you giggled.
âBetter late than never, I suppose.â he grinned.Â
âAlways a bright side, that's one of the things I love about you.â you admitted with a shy smile.
âOh?â Yoongi smiled, kissing your blush filled cheeks.
âThere's certain things that I adore about you.â you explained. âLike how kind you are, and how determined and focused. How you always treat people with respect. How you scrunch your nose up. God its adorable.â
Yoongi covered his mouth to stifle a laugh, his own cheeks now turning a shade of red.
âI love you too, baby. I love how you take care of me. How your eyes light up when you smile. I love how passionate you are. Youâre perfect to me.â Yoongi's voice was low and soft while he confessed.Â
You hid your face in his chest, willing your racing heart to calm down, but Yoongi always made your heart race, it seemed to beat only for him. Soon, exhaustion got the better of both of you. You drifted to sleep in Yoongi's warm embrace, listening to your favorite sound in the world, his heart. And it beat only for you.

hey Pandoraimperatix, my friend I would like to request sunflower Behave Yourself Make Me for Batcat and Violet Stop staring at me to distract me!" "Oh , I'm not staring to distract you ." for Dickkory.
Sorry for the huge delay, it has been busy lately.
We go back to the Titans AU that only exists in my heart in a time between season one and two in which Trigon is gone, but the core four + Jason are living together as a family and the rest of the adults Titans are... Dunno.
Beware, this is so sugary Iâm now dependent of insulin.
--------
It started as a regular game night, and for the first two hours or so it really happened as it should.
Gar was in charge of food, so even though everything in the menu was vegetarian he managed to serve a delicious feast with plenty decadent deep fried snacks that Dick would never approve, there was no cauliflower pizza nonsense and frizzy drinks with real sugar in their composition among the diet options.
Rachel fixed the games, Gar offered, but she dismissed him saying that he had too much a niche taste and Jason would only pick the boring battle ones. Besides, she was better at guessing which kind of game would entertain their family without causing a horrible fight over whom was owing whom rent at monopoly or something.
Jason was in charge of music, because he was the only one of the whole team with a decent taste. Or that's what he claimed.
Dick and Kory were not allowed to have any say in the game night activities, the kids said they were merely invited to join. Dick, being true to his namesake wanted to forbid the whole thing, already thinking of all the many ways a night of fun and games could turn into chaos and disgrace. But when Rachel proposed it, she already expected that from him, and thatâs why she asked him right after Koryâs morning flight, so when she entered the room, skin glowing fresh from a sunbath, he seemed to had lost the train of his thoughts, mumbling something incoherent, Rachel took that as a yes and ran with it.
But after all the food was gone the strangest thing started to happen. Stranger than Jason going to bed early instead of throwing a fit after losing three rounds or darts in a row. Dick was worried and even tried to talk to him, worried he was just self-isolating out of frustration, but when he went to the boy's room found him actually reading, that gave him a weird mix of surprise and bittersweet joy over his little brother's evolution. He was better now, and didn't need him as much.
But when he went back to the living room there was only Kory.
âWhere are Gar and Rachel?â
Kory took a while to answer because she had just stuffed her mouth with a particular big deep fried veggie dumpling, Dick tried to not fixate too much on how plump and kissable her lips were, but he probably didnât make a very good job. All those long acting classes with Alfred growing up and now, twenty years and an alien princess after, he suddenly couldnât hide his feelings. Dishonour on him, dishonour on his bats.
âCould have asked you the same,â she said finally swallowing down, and now it was her elegant neck and the dark path to her cleavage that was catching his eyes. Damn, it should be worrisome how much pull she had over him. It was true that he had a past o falling in love with his female teammates and it usually ended badly, but there was something different about him and Kory. While with Dawn and Babs there was always the shadow of this other man he supposed to be, a better man, and the weight of the expectations he put on himself and that he felt at the time that his exes added to, crushed their relationship.
Kory⊠Well, even after meeting Bruce last time they went to Gotham to officialise Jasonâs situation â and also a move orchestrated by Alfred to meet his new grandchildren â she didnât change with him. Of course, she didnât have years of indoctrinating to find Batman the most amazing man in existence, but even after learning his status, and listening to stories about him, she didnât look as impressed as people usually did. And for some crazy miracle, she was still very much interested in him, Dick, whom she already knew better than most people, maybe even better than Donna, and enough to know all his worst faults, enough to tell him he was being stupid when he let all his paranoia and inferiority complex make him act out. And she was still there, in love with him.
âAre they coming back? Thereâs still food.â
âWhoâs to say?â she said in a nonchalant tone, as she picked the fallen darts from the floor.
He crossed his arms, eying her with amused suspicion.
âMiss Anders, what are you planning?â
âMe?â she asked over her shoulder. âNothing at all,â and he didnât believe a bit, but waited and she straighten up, turning back to face him. âBut we donât need the kids to have fun, do we?â
And he could have died right there, the last thing heâd see was the smile she was giving to him, his favourite, that was in equal measures playful, promising, innocent and very dirty. That picture alone with be worthier than any paradise.
Dick walked towards her, and positioned his body behind hers, framing her hips with his hands. âDepending of the type of fun you have in mindâŠâ he said against her ear after pulling her hair aside.
Kory clicked her tongue in disapproval, but leaned back into him slightly, âGrayson, Grayson, what a naughty mind you have.â She prepared to throw a dart and recoiled when he kissed her neck. âI was merely trying to challenge you for a dartsâ competition.â
âYeah?â
She turned her face to look at him, her eyes glowing so green in the way he learned it meant she was getting aroused.
âYes.â
Dick let her go and didnât comment when she let out a disappointed sigh.
âI accept,â he took a sip of his own sugar free pop and regretted immediately because it became flat after being forgotten for so long, âwhat do I get when I win?â
âCocky, arenât we?â
âIn time.â
She bended in half unable to hide her giggles.
âYou are ridiculous.â
He just pouted.
Kory rolled her eyes in amusement, took a deep breath to calm herself and prepared to throw her first dart.
"Stop staring at me to distract me!" She complained.
"Oh, I'm not staring to distract you."
She threw it and it missed, badly. Dick pressed his lips but wasnât able to hold his own laughter.
âThatâs your fault!â her face was glowing golden, and Dick resented the fact they didnât get to meet earlier, how had been Kory as a teenager? Was she easier to rile up back then? Nowadays, she was the coolest person he ever met, cooler than Bruce, than his uncle Clark. It was the rarest thing to see Kory act in a self-conscious way, and he would be lying if he said he didnât enjoy this newfound power he had. The power to make Princess Koriandâr blush.
âIâll be more careful now when you start throwing starbolts around from now on,â he teased.
âIâll use you as my training target, thenâ was her comeback.
âI think Iâll be fine.â
She sighed and turned back to him, her hands on her hips.
âWhy are you torturing me?â
He gave her his best kicked puppy look.
âWe are here, all alone, and all you care about is some dumb gameâŠâ
Koryâs face broke in one of her full smiles and she threw the darts without even looking, all of them bullâs eye, and walked towards him, hugging him by the neck.Â
âAwnnnn, is that it? Why didnât you say earlier?â
He let go of his demure stance and in a display of his true intentions hoisted her up by her backside, Kory let out an elated exclamation and adjusted her arms grabbing his face and bringing their lips together.
âHmm,â he made as she parted from his lips to let him breathe and spread kisses down his neck, âcan we really? Wonât they come back?â
âNah,â she said licking his ear, âI gave them money.â
âNot only she has a very good aim, but sheâs also so smart,â he mumbled as he walked them to the sofa.
âArenât I a catch?â she said opening her legs to accommodate him after he lied her body on the cushions, and pushed his floppy hair back behind his ear, âarenât you lucky?â
âThe luckiest,â and he kissed her.

Paralyzed in Lust | Sukuna x F-Reader
Part 1
Urban legends always seemed to intrigue you, but thatâs all they were. Just legends. Youâve seen enough horror movies to know that practicing those rituals never ended well. Your college friends seemed to have the opposite idea, however.
 They loved to go to abandoned areas and attempt some of the rituals posted online. Safely, of course, but how safe is it? They talked about salt circles, protection wards, sigils, and protection amulets or crystals but is that enough?
 They would mention that attempting to summon a demon is dangerous, but here they are in your studio apartment, talking about calling forth a demon from an urban legend that seemed to pop out of nowhere.
 The urban legend about Ryomen Sukuna, a four-armed demon that no one could seem to invite. You didnât understand why anyone would want to summon a demon, but you guess curiosity killed that cat.
 You sat on your twin-sized bed lined up against the wall while your friends sat on a two-seater bench situated in front of your bed, underneath the long window. Your studio apartment held all the essentials for a financially struggling college student.
 Entering the apartment, you would be met with a small hallway. On your immediate left is the door to the bathroom, while on your immediate right is a small storage space. Farther in, youâre met with the small space for your bed on the left with a walk-in closet that shares the wall with the bathroom.
 Facing the entrance is the bench underneath a horizontal window with a view of the busy street, covered by some window shutters to give you some privacy. These shutters were currently open, letting in the remaining light from the sunset, but were slightly blocked by your friends.
 To the right of the hallway entrance behind the storage, is your kitchen. It had enough space to fit a bit of counter space, fridge, sink, and dishwasher. Adjacent to your kitchen, across your bed, and near the bench was an L-shaped divider hiding a portable washer and dryer.
 â[Y/n]!â your friend, Nobara, exclaimed. âWill you finally join us for this ritual? I know youâre not really into these things, but itâs safe, I swear. We even have our protection spells and everything.â
 You hummed in apprehension. âIâm not sure Iâm ready to do those yet.â
 Megumi, your other friend, nodded his head. âOkay, but just let us know whenever you want to join us or if you end up doing it on your own...â he grabbed some of Nobaraâs amulets and his salt bags. âHere, Iâll lend some to you in case you change your mind.â
 He placed the items in your bag.
 âThank you. When are you both planning on doing the ritual?â you asked them.
 âAh, maybe tonight? We have nothing else planned, and weâve been itching to try this ritual out ever since we saw it on a forum.â Nobara replied. She pulled out her phone and scrolled for a while before handing it to you. âEveryoneâs been talking about it, but no oneâs been able to pull it off.â
 Megumi then spoke. âYeah and no oneâs sure about where this urban legend came from anyway so we donât know if itâs real or not. Thatâs why we want to see for ourselves.â
 You took a peek at Nobaraâs phone and read parts of the forum out loud.
 âRyomen Sukuna... Four-armed demon⊠To begin the ritual, cut the pads of all your fingers until blood oozes out. Bro what?â You looked at your friends in confusion. They simply shrugged and told you to continue reading.
 âSoak your bloody fingers in a large bowl of water until the water is stained dark red. Remove your hands from the bowl and do this hand sign by connecting your thumb, middle, and ring finger pads while your index and pinky fingers are bent towards your palms. What in the summoning-jutsu is this?â
 You attempted the hand signs after you had placed her phone on your bed. Megumi lightly laughed and showed you how to do it properly.
 âGirl, you watch too much Naruto.â Nobara snickered.
 You rolled your eyes and smirked. âIâm not the only one simping over Kakashi and Itachi. Youâre just as guilty.â
 âHere [y/n], continue reading the rules.â Megumi said, handing you the phone.
 âSay âDomain Expansion: Malevolent Shrineâ after performing the hand sign and dunk your face into the bowl of water and blood. After this, Sukuna will appear. To properly end the ritual, thank him for his time and say âCleave.â This is critical. Failure to do so will leave you with cursed energy around you. **For extra protection, perform an exorcism.â
 You sighed after reading the rules of the forum. It seemed easy enough but you werenât sure whether it was worth the risk to have cursed energy if it failed and did you need to perform an exorcism?? Wasnât that a bit too much? Plus, you wanted all the luck you could get since you just applied for an internship for the fall quarter.
 âWell, if you both decide to do this, please be safe,â you told your friends.
 Nobara smiled and grabbed her small backpack. âDonât worry, weâll text you what happens. We were thinking of recording it anyway, so weâll send that to you later tonight after we try it.â
 She hugged you and started walking to the door followed by Megumi.
 âYou can keep the rest of the pizza. Itâs not easy for me to digest,â he said, as he double-checked to make sure you had the amulets and salt bags. You smiled at him, eyes showing appreciation because you had very little food left in your fridge.
 âThank you, Megumi. Good night, you two. Iâll see you both tomorrow after work.â you said, waving to them as they left your apartment complex. Once they were out of your sight, you closed and locked your entrance door.
 You grabbed your laptop and made your way toward the kitchen, putting it on top of the small counter space you had. You sighed as you put away the leftover pizza in the fridge. Being an avid horror fan, you enjoyed the paranormal, but partaking in anything of the sort in real life made you nervous.
 The urban legend of Sukuna intrigued you, even if the ritual was slightly strange. Wouldnât you faint from losing so much blood? Plus, who the fuck is Sukuna anyway? What made him so special for people to want to do this sort of thing?
 Facepalming, you opened a web browser on your laptop and did a simple search. Who is Ryomen Sukuna?
 You scrolled through countless forums, talking about the ritual and how it didnât work. No one seemed to be able to conjure Ryomen Sukuna. The problem was that no one knew who he was. Only that he was a strong demonic entity that holds a lot of cursed energy and has two faces and two sets of arms.
 Two sets, huh? What, does he have two dicks too? You laughed to yourself, but then rolled your eyes and groaned. You needed to get laid.
 Further throughout your research, you decided to take a break and looked over to the clock on the wall above your washer and dryer. It was 11:56 PM, indicating that your friends left three hours ago.
 You took a glance at your phone that was charging next to your laptop and noticed that Megumi and Nobara had sent an attachment to your group chat. Unplugging your phone from the charger, you unlocked it and strode over to the bathroom.
 Your group chat read:
 âHey [y/n], we finished the ritual but nothing happened. Bummer, I was looking forward to summoning one of the most difficult demons to conjure up.â Nobara sent at midnight.
 âOi, hereâs the video,â Megumi replied, with a black screen video attached after his message.
 Oh wow, they actually recorded it. You thought, adding some toothpaste to your toothbrush. You pressed on the video and let it play while you brushed your teeth.
 You watched as both your friends performed the finger-bleeding step and you couldnât help but gag a little. Thatâs a shit ton of blood. It took a while considering each of their fingers had a small cut, and the bowls were large. After a couple of minutes, Megumi and Nobara removed their hands from the bowl and performed the hand sign.
 âDomain Expansion: Malevolent Shrine.â You heard them chant once and then watched them dunk their head into the bloody water as you spit out your toothpaste and rinse your mouth.
Standing in front of the mirror and sink, you stared at the video, watching your friends and waiting for something to happen.
 In the video, you saw Nobara and Megumi look at each other and shrug. You fast-forwarded the video a bit, looking for any sign that the ritual worked but the video ended with them thanking Sukuna and saying âCleaveâ before anything appeared.
 Exiting out of the video, you sent a response to the group chat.
 âIâm sorry nothing happened, guys. I know you were excited for something to happen.â
 âItâll make us feel better if you tried it yourself heheâ Nobara replied with a smirk emoji.
 You stared at her message for a while, contemplating what you should do. Preparing for your night routine, you stripped and stepped into the shower, letting the hot water run down your back, massaging your aching muscles.
 You had a long day at work, and now you were stuck on whether you should do this ritual or not. Nothing has been happening to anyone anyway, so most likely nothing will happen to you. This ritual was probably a hoax, just a trend since people were bored. Right?
 Please conscience, what do I do? AH FUCK IT.
 After you had finished your shower, you hastily applied your lotions and pajamas which consisted of a tank top and lace underwear. You grabbed your phone from the bathroom and reread the forum on what to do, sending another reply to Nobara saying that youâll do the ritual.
 You grabbed the essential items you needed: salt, amulet, a large basin of water, and a pocket knife. You released a large breath you seemed to be holding and read the text you just received from the group chat.
 âAYE, thatâs my girl!!â Nobara sent with a grinning gif.
 âBe safe [y/n]. Text us if anything happens and donât forget to use the salt and amulets.â Megumi responded.
 âIâll record myself and send it to both of you once I finishâÂ
 You balanced your phone on the foot of your bed, pressed record, and placed the ritual items on the floor beside you, grabbing the amulet first and placing the tie around your neck.Â
 Please protect me. You thought as you gripped the amulet and placed some salt in a circle, trapping yourself within it.Â
 You steadied your breathing and positioned the bowl in front of you.Â
 All right. Letâs get this over with.
 Slicing the pads of your fingertips with the pocket knife, you held your fingers over the large basin, watching the blood drip into the water.Â
 God, I shouldâve played some music in the background. The silence is killing me. I swear to God if that fucking Tip Toe Through the Meadow song from Insidious plays on a radio, Iâm going to burn this building down.
 The water rippled as each blood drop collided with it. Your nerves were on high alert, but you were too scared to glance around your room. What if there was a shadow at your doorway or a ghost in the mirror? WHAT IF it was right behind you?!
 You cried internally and tried to rid your thoughts of anything horrific. After what seemed to be forever, waiting in agony, the bowl was painted crimson. You released another breath and tried to remember the next step of the ritual.
 Ah right, the jutsu sign.
 You formed the hand sign and said out loud, âDOMAIN EXPANSION: MALEVOLENT SHRINE.âÂ
 Cringing, you dipped your head into the bowl and stayed there until you needed a gulp of air.Â
 This is disgusting, why am I doing this again?
 Your face was tinted with blood and you carefully looked around your room without the blood dripping onto your laminated floors. Your hearing was heightened due to the lack of light in the room, but you heard nothing. You felt nothing.Â
 It probably didnât work. Thank you, God. I can live to see another day.
 âRyomen Sukuna, if youâre there, thank you for your time. Letâs not do this again, please and thank youuu.â you sang. âCLEAVE.â
 You grabbed your phone from the footrest of your bed, ended the recording, and texted the group chat.
 âI just finished. Nothing happened to me either. I guess it is just a hoax.â
 âDamn. What if we did something wrong? Letâs try it again.â Nobara said.
 âMy face has my blood dripping from it, no thank you.âÂ
 âYou said âCleave,â right [y/n]?â Megumi questioned.
 âYup. Iâm gonna go clean up and try to sleep. Iâll see you both tomorrow. Good night!âÂ
 Bidding each other good night, you swept the salt circle and drained the bloody water into the bathroom sink. You rinsed your face of any remnants of the ritual and reapplied your moisturizer.Â
 Plopping onto your bed and hiding under the covers, you glanced once more at the clock. It read 2 AM.Â
 Damn, I have class in 6 hours. Note to self: stop registering for 8 AM classes in case you decide to do rituals late into the night.
 You closed your eyes and attempted to sleep, but you couldnât stop tossing and turning. Something didnât feel right. You felt suffocated like something was watching you. You were too scared to open your eyes and hid further into your covers.
 Sure, [y/n]. Theyâll never know Iâm under here.
 You kept tossing and turning for thirty minutes because you just couldnât find that comfortable spot. Suddenly, you felt a sensation on your limbs.Â
 What the fuck?
 You froze. You felt like each of your limbs were grabbed by one⊠two⊠FOUR HANDS?! You didnât want to believe it. You couldnât believe it. No fucking way the ritual worked. Counting to three, you screamed and punched into the air.Â
 Nothing was there. No one was there. You were alone.

Confessions - Spencer Reid
frens and ferns, IM OUT OF SCHOOL FOR A MONTH. so hereâs a new fic about something iâve been struggling with lately...
summary: With emily gone, Spencer is having a hard time coping with her death. After a little prodding, he finds comfort in y/n, who is struggling with their own demons.
gender: neutral (i think. i tried not to point to any gender terms so hopefully i did okay at it bc i dont feel like proofreading.)
Warnings: talk of addiction but nothing more
âââ
Getting home from a case was always, hard on you. There were days when it was harder to get up in the morning because of the physical and emotional toll the job put on your body. Ever since that un-sub broke your ankle, everything has been even harder.
âY/L/N, nice to see you back." Morgan said as you exited the elevator.
âYou too, D." You said, plastering a fake smile on your face. In truth, you wished that you were off for one more week but the world wasn't that kind to you.
The doors to the elevator were slowly closing when you heard Spencer shuffling quickly toward your direction.
Before you had the chance to throw your arm in the way of the elevator sensors, Spencer's slender body slipped through.
You were a newer member to the team. Well... You were the only new member to the team. Being a replacement for agent Emily Prentiss, the team getting to know you was a process. Derek trained you so he already knew what you were like in action but this was the first case the rest of the team saw you on.
The silence in the elevator was loud and thick with anticipation. Spencer was looking over at you in quick glances when he wasn't staring at his converse.
âYou didn't press a number." Spencer said, barely loud enough for you to hear.
"Oh... I guess that explains why if felt like I was going nowhere." You chuckled at your joke and winced when you met Dr. Reid's blank gaze.
"Do you..." He paused.
Spencer shook his head, clearing the thought from his mind. You continued staring but he dropped his gaze back to his shoes as if he hadn't started and dropped a question.
The elevator doors opened, showing an empty garage. The two of you gestured for the other to exit first but you ended up going first.
âDid you want to ask me something. Dr. Reid?" You said, watching him hesitate.
"Spencer." He said, ignoring the question. "My friends call me Spencer."
"I didn't think we were friends yet." You blankly. It wasn't meant to be funny but you couldn't help but smile.
âMy team consists of my friends. As you are on my team, we're friends." Spencer's face never changed.
"Okay, Spencer." You looked at him. If you weren't so worried about getting home, you would've indulged in the moment. But all you wanted to do right now was be alone with some pizza and take the edge off from today.
"If that's all..." You tried to close the interaction with him by taking a few steps back but Spencer took just as many slow steps forward.
"Actually," Spencer began, "how do you do it?"
You faked a chuckle. "Do what?"
âHide your addiction so well." Spencer was so pointblank sometimes.
"What are you talking about?" You tried to control the beads of sweat that threatened to pool.
"Everybody knows.â It's your ankle that started the painkillers and you couldn't stop. It took you away from the pain, the humiliation.
âHow could you be so stupid as to get caught? You're even dumber for finding solice in the feeling when you've got all of this support around you? You've got a family who..." Spencer trailed off.
Your head was still reeling from the beginning of his statement. Everyone knew... But how could that be? It wasn't obvious but something was off about the distant look in Spencer's eyes. It was like he wasn't looking or talking to you. The anger laced in his tone wasn't for you...
âSpencer," you took a step towards him, "Are you talking about you?" Spencer stopped talking. You weren't used to seeing him so quiet.
"It's been a while." Spencer looked down at his converse. "Emily was there. When it got bad, I would cuddle up with her cat on her couch and try to forget the thoughts. She wouldn't make me feel like a burden at 2 a.m., when I was screaming myself awake. She always told me to stay as long as I needed, even when I was positive she was fed up with me. I wish I believed her. I wish I stayed." Spencer tapered off into silence, sniffling.
A pipe dripping. Footsteps in the stairwell. A car alarm chirping. All of those things sounded louder than they normally would. This wasn't Spencer cornering you. This was a confused and hurting boy that was begging for help. He just didn't know how to say what he needed right now.
âDo you..." You started but stopped because it didn't feel right.
Where do you start with someone who is just like you: broken, hurting, and alone.
How do you comfort someone without enabling them to do something destructive that might make everything worse?
How do you avoid hurting someone when all you wanted to do was hurt yourself, in a way.
"Do you like pancakes?" You asked, startling him out of his thoughts. "Pancakes? Sure." Spencer slowly lifted his head and shrugged.
You started walking to your car, motioning for Spencer to follow.
The car ride with Spencer was filled with silence. The whole time, you were thinking about ways to explain the situation to Spencer without making it worse. Spencer was trying to decide if talking to you was a good idea after all, considering you were taking him somewhere pancake related.
Pulling up to the run-down diner, you looked over at Spencer, who was staring out the window.
"I promise the pancakes are better than the place looks." You chuckled, getting Spencer's attention.
"I wasn't really worried about the taste of the pancakes..." Spencer trailed off.
"Good, I guess." You said, a little bit defeated.
You and Spencer walked into the diner, where you were greeted by a friendly older woman named Janice. She knew your name by heart, since you were a regular, and she seated you at your normal booth.
"Actually, would you mind seating us at 12? This is Spencer, the guy I've told you about..." You blushed, hoping you said everything low enough for Spencer not to notice. His mind was elsewhere so he wasn't listening as he normally would. A part of you was grateful for that.
Janice did a once-over at Spencer, softly grinning, and brought you to table 12.
Despite the outside looking dingy, the inside of the diner was cleaner than Spencer thought it would be. He wasn't really fond of booths but these weren't the pillow seat booths where children could hide things between the bottom seat and the backrest. This was the plastic seats that hurt your butt after a little while. But what he noticed that was different about the seating at the table was that one half was a booth and the other half consisted of two four-legged chairs.
"I know you don't like the germs in booth seats so I figured this would be a better option." You said, unable to meet his eyes.
Spencer was shocked as you slid into the booth seat, avoiding his eyes. Spencer pulled out his chair, temporarily distracted by the fact that he never mentioned how much he hates booth seats. You paid attention and noticed that about him. What else had you noticed?
"So..." Spencer folded his hands in his lap nervously.
"Let's order and then we'll talk." You said, trying to focus on the task at hand.
Placing your orders, you went with your usual breakfast at midnight and he just ordered the same thing you ordered.
"It'll be good, I promise." You said, giving him a small smile.
"You never answered my question." Spencer said, looking up at you.
"I know." You were getting nervous again. The nerves hadn't stopped since Spencer asked that question in the parking lot but you were trying really hard to find an answer to it.
"How do you do it?" Spencer asked again.
"Spencer, it's not that simple. I can't give you an answer like that over something so complex. Why do you want to know?" You asked, trying to focus on meeting his eyes.
Spencer's gaze was intense when he wanted it to be so you settled for staring at the tip of his nose.
"I'm struggling, y/n. Emily was... She was family to me. If Hotch is the dad, Rossi is the cool uncle, JJ is the mom, Derek is the older brother, and Emily is..." Spencer's voice caught in his throat. "Was the big sister. I lost a sister the day she died and I'm lost without her."
"Spencer, I'm so sorry..." You said, wanting to hug him.
A tear slipped down Spencer's face as you watched him frustratedly wipe it away.
"It's not fair, you know?" Spencer continued. "I survived the worst days of my life. I got to live after experiencing torture and she didn't do anything but fall in love with someone who wasn't..."
There was a moment of silence as you let Spencer get his feelings out. While the two of you said nothing, Janice brought your food and drinks to your table. She must have sensed the tension between you and Spencer because once you thanked her, she didn't hover or make additional conversation.
"It just hurts and I don't... I don't want to feel it. I just want to escape the constant pain and be happy again, just for a little while. It doesn't have to stay forever but I don't want this pain to hurt like this for now." Spencer cut into his pancakes, taking a bite. His face changed into something of contentment.
"I come here when I have a... I guess you could say craving." You started, "Carbs and sugar are good for the itching feeling you get when you really need a fix."
A moment passed as the two of you enjoyed the food in front of you. After downing half of your food, you decided to speak again.
"What's your drug of choice, if you don't mind me asking?" You quietly said, your eyes staying trained on the way your butterknife slowly cut into your pancakes.
"Dilaudid." Spencer was so upfront about it. You thought you would have to pull it out of him but he made your job easier.
"Ah... Opioids are a bitch to kick. Controlled substance so I won't ask how you got it but I understand it's not easy. There was this study we had to do in training. This one agent got captured and tortured and the BAU had to watch as he was drugged, tortured, and almost died... I guess you would know them, right?" You asked, trying to figure out which team member it was.
"That was me." Again, Spencer being upfront.
"Oh...Spencer, I'm so sorry... I didn't know." You were remorseful, you shouldn't have brought it up.
"That's where it began. I begged for him not to do it the first time, not wanting the drugs. But after that? After the torture and pain and... Everything? I craved that release. And even after he died, I just wanted to get away from all of the stress in life. Feel warmth in my veins, mentally zoning out for just long enough to reset my mind and be reminded that there was something good in the world..." Spencer looked over your shoulder but his eyes weren't fixed on a particular spot.
That's the thing about being an addict... You don't realize how much it hurts to be alive until the high sends you crashing back down. And, especially in our line of work, all you want is to stay up for as long as possible because the horrors of reality will tear you apart..." You finished.
Spencer's attention came back to you as you spoke, making you a little uncomfortable. You couldn't meet his eyes.
"I went to a couple meetings in the past." Spencer said, thinking about his experiences there. "I didn't feel like I belonged. I have a good life. Stable job. I'm fortunate enough to have a roof over my head. My mom is taken care of by capable people. I don't have to worry about anything. And the guys there? They're struggling in many cases. They're fighting for the things I take for granted and I didn't know how I could stand to be in the same room with my privileges and pretend like my problem was important..." Spencer trailed off.
"Spencer, your addiction is valid." You were finally able to look him in the eyes and emphasize your point.
"Is it, though?" Spencer stared back at you, a challenging tone laced his voice.
"It's not fun..." You started, unable to look at Spencer any longer. "I don't do it for fun or because I want to stay high. I don't do it for the feeling it gives me. I do it because I feel like I have to."
"What do you mean?" Spencer tilted his head like a puppy who was trying to understand a new word.
"After I broke my ankle, I was prescribed these... Off brand pills. They didn't really help unless I snorted them. And even then, they didn't help my ankle or me. So I found something stronger. A friend of mine is a doctor and when I go to see him, I'm able to... I guess manipulate him into giving me the good stuff, the stuff that makes my thoughts slow down, calms the voice, gives me a sense of peace and not this constant anxiety." You said, hands tapping the table.
"Oh..." Spencer said, taking in what you were saying.
"I'm an addict not for pleasure but for pain. And my struggle is no greater or lesser than yours." You said, fingers still tapping away. "I struggle, like you, except the difference is I'm newer to the team so they don't know what it's like to see me in my chaotic neutral state. What did you do when you had cravings before? You must have been clean for a couple years now, right?"
"I went to Emily... I always went to Emily. I play back these moments when I snapped at her for wanting to help and I wish I just..." Once again, Spencer's voice was caught in his throat.
"She was your safe space when you felt like you couldn't turn to anyone else." You said, understanding. "You don't have to be romantically inclined to have a safe space with someone. It's whomever you find solace in, for any reason under and over the sun."
"I wouldn't feel this way if she were here..." Spencer said, more to himself as if he were trying to be convincing.
"Spencer, you have to be honest with yourself. If it wasn't this, it would be something else. And that something else might not have landed you with someone who was willing to assist you in your recovery to stay clean." You said, finishing your pancakes.
"What?" Spencer did a double take. No one had ever offered to help him. He always had to be the first to make the move but even then, everyone was reluctant to take on the responsibility of Spencer.
"Isn't there an unspoken rule about addicts not being with each other?" Spencer asked, genuinely concerned.
He hoped not because he would love to have someone he could finally confide in, someone who wouldn't make him feel like a burden.
"No, that's about addicts not dating each other. But I think that as friends, we can understand each other in ways others cant. We can fight together. Have you notiiced the craving is gone, for the most part?" You asked, sure that Spencers single slice would be gone in a moment.
"Okay. Deal. We can confide in one another and maybe it'll help us get a grip on reality when we feel ourselves slipping.â
âOkay.â

Fandom: Wrestling, AEW
Pairing: Orange Cassidy x Reader
Warnings: None
Genre: Fluff
Word Count: 1,518
Masterlist | Buy Me coffee
Requested by @dancingwithsilhouettes
A/N: I'm not going to lie, this is probably my favorite I've written so far, I put much of myself in it I kind of feel vulnerable, well... hope you enjoy it!
I loved living with James, we've lived together for the past year, he was searching for a roommate and I had just finished my stay at another complex, it accommodated more to my expenses not having to pay full rent and it was a plus living with my best friend. But of course I didnât know I would get so attached to him emotionally, I started to depend on him for a lot of things. During the morning one would cook breakfast for the both of us, we would go to restaurants together, dinner was almost always pizza or some other delivered food so we didn't get out of the house, we always had marathons of movies, I will be honest, he made me care about Fast and Furious. Lately I've felt small changes, but significant ones, we used to sit side by side on the couch and now he would put his arm around my shoulders or he would rest his head on my lap and I would play with his hair, he started kissing me more often, kisses on the cheek and forehead, he would take my hand if he went for a walk, he always let me decide where to go or what to do, and I know I could be exaggerated but maybe, just maybe he does like me. I got up in the morning and started making pancakes, as they started to cook I feel James enter the kitchen. âThis smells great, why do they smell so good? What did you put in them? " He asked as he walked closer to me or rather the plate filled with pancakes, he took the plate and sniffed he almost moaned appreciating the sweet smell. "Family recipe, I can't say" I say as I keep myself occupied, I was trying not to look at him for too long, I always found myself looking at him for long minutes at a time, I couldn't help but look in admiration, it was early in the morning and he looked perfect, his hair brushed to the side, he just put on some sweatpants and at shirt, I could say we were dressed exactly the same but I looked like shit. The lights that came from the window made his blond hair glow, his skin looked pale, his eyes as blue as they ever looked, he was the closest thing Iâd seen to an angel. After breakfast we started watching Avatar, the bald kid, not the blue mosters, i love making Cassidy watch kid oriented movies or shows he seemed to be more calm and relaxed when we saw them, he was hesitant at first but with time he started liking them again, I loved the way he concentrated and he would pause the show to ask something if he didnt understand or sometimes he made up his own conclusions to what was next and I thought it was the cutest thing ever. "So is he like the ultimate bad guy?" He asked, as Zuko was yelling at his uncle. "No, his father is, but he doesnât show up until later" I explained. "Ohh" He said nodding, he kept watching and didnât say much, only laughing at things Sokka would say or do, I feel like he would take inspiration for Orange by looking at Sokka and his comedic antics. We kept watching for hours, he started reclining his head on my shoulder until he had his head on my lap, he was absently playing with the cordons of my sweatpants as I started brushing his soft hair with my fingers, i knew the show from front to back i wasnât paying much attention, instead I would watch his features, the long bridge of his nose, the little concave part down the lower part of his nose, I loved that part. His laugh was contagious, it was like fuel to me, I loved the way the lines appeared beside his mouth because he smiled so much, I liked being the reason he smiled so much thatâs why Iâm always trying to break him especially if he is in character, this days it doesnât take much, and he is just a very giggly person. That was part of his charm and it was easy to love him. We ordered food not wanting to even move from the couch, we heard the bell ring and we looked at each other. âRock, paper, scissors?â I asked. âShoot, two out of threeâ He answered smiling, he stuck his tongue out while he played, after losing the first two games he got up, resigned, he came back with pizza and a soda from the fridge, I concentrated in devouring the pizza but I felt him staring at me, I almost
chocked, I looked back at him a little embarrassed, I must have looked like a maniac, he smiled and I imitated him. We went back to watch the show afterwards, but I couldnât shake the feeling that James was watching me, I started biting my lip unconsciously. Out of nowhere he turned off the tv and he sat looking directly at me. âWhatâs up?â I asked confused, he evaded my face for a few seconds, he scratched the back of his neck, unintentionally my eyes looked at his arms, he may not be the biggest guy but he is certainly more muscular than a regular person. âWe need to talkâ He said in a serious voice, he didnât use that tone often so I was scared of what he would say. âSure⊠about what?â I said. âI donât know how to do thisâ He mumbled to himself, I put a hand on his knee trying to comfort him, but he froze, he looked at my hand and then at my face, his mouth a little open, he lost concentration, I was confused all around. âI⊠donât know if I should say itâ He said hesitated. âItâs ok just say itâ I wanted him to talk, every second I was more and more afraid of what could come. âI love youâ He says in shaky voice, he looks at me expecting my reaction, I didnât know how to react. âI love you tooâ I say between confusion and without me trying to sound that way, it came out like nonchalant, but I was dying on the inside, he never said âloveâ before, I started sweating from how nervous I was, he shakes his head. âYou donât get it, Iâm in love with youâ And there it was, my mouth felt dry suddenly, I could not move I couldnât think straight, I didnât say anything and he took it as a sign to keep talking. âIâm not sure when it happened but I amâ He pauses for a second, he moves closer to me, taking my hand in his, he locked eyes with me, the shine in them was distracting me, but then his voice brought me back to reality, a reality I didnât know I could be in. âI love the way your hair smells when we cuddle, I love to spoil you with your favorite dessert, I love watching movies and how you do commentary for them, sometimes itâs much better than the actual lines, I love your smile, I love your laugh and I do everything I can to see it every day, I know weâre supposed to be friends but I canât fake it anymore I have fallen in love with you and if you are ok with it, would you go on a date with me?â I felt tears almost falling from my eyes, were did the emotion come from? Only he could make me feel like a million bucks, with his thumb he wiped my tears, he kept his hand over my cheek. âAre you ok?â He asked preoccupied, his thumb rubbing my skin lovely, I nodded as I smiled, I hugged the arm that was touching my face. âI think Iâm alright, itâs just⊠Iâve waited a long time to hear you say that, and part of me doesnât want to wake up from this dreamâ He smiled. âItâs not a dreamâ He said. James moved slowly towards me, I looked at his blue eyes as he closed the distance, he looked at me one last time, his lips were parted as he waited one more second before he kissed me for the first time, his lips touching mine as electricity rushed into me, his free hand went to my waist, I kept one on his arm and the other went to his hair, tilting his head to the side we didnât waste time and deepened the kiss, but it wasnât long before we had to separate. I looked at the floor for a while, I felt my cheeks burning hot, I felt like a teenager with my first crush again. âDefiantly not a dreamâ I said joking as I find the courage to look at him, he took my hand and kissed it. âSo⊠what do you say?â He asks expectantly. âIâd love to go out with youâ

If you're taking requests, how about: Killian Jones is known as radio 1s love doctor. Most of his calls are pretty lame, like the guy that called in when his girlfriend ghosted him for kissing too loudly, or the girl that saw her boyfriend snogging another girl at a rugby game. But things get interesting when he receives a call from a woman named Emma, who's got a crush on one of her new neighbors. She doesn't even know his name, much less how to talk to him...
I am 100% sure this ânonnieâ is actually @wellhellotragic so sheâll have to forgive me that this isnât angsty for her. It was going to start that way. It really was. But then I remembered that itâs @resident-of-storybrookeâs birthday tomorrow, so the plot shifted when I realized I wouldnât get the CMIYC prompt I wanted out for her. So hopefully angsty and baseball related things will be coming soon!
Happy (early) birthday, Tori! Iâm giving you this a little early since Iâm not entirely sure Iâll have internet tomorrow (thanks, storms)! Enjoy your day! This is obviously how to get the party started đ
found on ao3 | here |

âSo, what do you think I should do?â
Killian twists in his chair and looks to Ariel on the other side of the glass. She shrugs and taps the imaginary watch on her wrist.
âWell, Ashely,â he sighs as he looks down at the notes heâs been taking, âI think the first step is telling your truth. Itâs not going to be easy, especially with the situation youâre in, but youâre going to drive yourself crazy thinking of the possibilities of how things could change instead of actually changing them.â
âThatâs kind of terrifying. What if â what if he doesnât feel the same way?â
Killian leans back in his chair and adjusts his headset. âThis is the father of your child, aye?â
âYeah.â
âAnd you two were together at some point, correct?â
âWhen I was pregnant, but that was five years ago now.â
âAnd in the five years since youâve had your child, you two have grown closer because you share this child. Nothing about it has been romantic or fueled by the desire to advance things sexually, and I think unlike when you first got together, you know each other now. Thereâs a genuine connection outside of your daughter and outside of a physical relationship. To me, it sounds like itâs worth starting a conversation, but you also have to realize this man is going to be in your life for the rest of your life because of your child. You have to be prepared for it to not go well and to still be able to put your daughter first.â
âWow, way to sell the romance,â Ariel whispers in his headset.
He turns to her and flicks up his fingers. Heâs not about selling unrealistic romance.
âLook, Ashely,â Killian starts again, âI understand that youâre scared, but I can tell that youâre strong. If anyone can have this conversation, itâs you.â
Thereâs a sniffle on the other end of the line. âOkay, okay. Iâll try. Thank you so much.â
âThink nothing of it, darling. Thank you for your call.â
âAnd commercial,â Ariel says again before he hears the sound of a local dry cleanerâs commercial coming on. God, he hates this one.
âI am not about unrealistic romance, and you know it,â he says to Ariel now that he can speak to her.
âYour nickname is the Love Doctor.â
âWhich I did not pick. The network did that.â
âBecause you give relationship advice for several hours a night.â
âWhich was completely by accident and totally your fault for having us talk about you and Eric on air.â
She shrugs again, and Killian turns away to take a sip of his water. Heâs got a lingering hangover from yesterday still, and he really should not have had that much rum. But he needed it, if heâs honest with himself, and it helped him get through the night much easier than anything else would have. The anniversary of Milahâs death is never easy, but at least this year he was able to get up the next day with only a nasty hangover.
âSo our next caller is a kid.â
Killian almost chokes on his water. âItâs nearly midnight.â
âI know. I think heâs risking getting grounded to talk to you.â
âI donât know how to give relationship advice to a kid. I feel like thatâs entirely unethical. What do I â â
âOh, the commercial break is over,â Ariel tells him, holding up her fingers and counting down.
Three. Two. One.
âGood evening, this is Killian Jones at Radio 105. How can I help you tonight?â
âUm, hi. Iâm Henry.â
Well, this is definitely a kid calling him. This might be a first for him, and heâs been on the receiving end of some interesting calls for the last six years.
âHello, Henry. How can I help you tonight?â
Thereâs a cough on the other end of the line, and Killian thinks the call is about to be disconnected until the kid starts speaking again.
âMy mom doesnât have a boyfriend.â
Bloody hell. The kid is calling about his mum. Killian at least thought it was maybe going to be something regarding a dance at school or his first crush or anything that Killian could easily answer.
Then again, how was any question a kid was going to ask him ever going to be easy? He has exactly zero experience with children.
Well, no, he is pretty good with Roland. That counts for something.
âWell, lad, I think quite a few mums donât have boyfriends. Are you looking for her to have one?â
âYeah. I mean, look, I have a dad, but he and my mom have never been together. I donât think theyâre ever going to get together like that Ashely lady you just helped. My dad has a girlfriend, and I really feel like my mom would be happier if she had someone, too.â
âThat is the cutest thing Iâve ever heard,â Ariel says.
He holds up his fingers at her again.
âHenry, thatâs very kind of you to be so concerned about your mum. I can tell sheâs raised a good kid in you, but I think this might be a situation where you have to let adults be adults. Maybe your mum is happy with it only being the two of you. She might not want a boyfriend.â
Henry sighs, and Killian already knows heâs told the kid the exact opposite of what he wanted to hear. Shit.
âShe does want one. I heard her talking about this guy she likes to my aunt. He lives in our building.â
âIs that so?â
âYeah. I mean, Iâve never seen him. I think he works at night like she does, but I know she said that he was cute.â
Killian chuckles and runs his hand over his scruff. This kid has got such good intentions, and really, Killian doesnât want to let him down.
Maybe his hangover is screwing with his mind a little too much.
âAlright, Henry, I want you to listen really closely, aye?â
âOkay.â
âYour mum, if she likes this man, is going to have to tell him. Now, she might have already, but she could be keeping it quiet for a little while until she knows that heâs more than cute. But she also might not talk to him, and thatâs a very real possibility. So, I think for you, Henry, the best thing to do is know that your mum doesnât have to have a boyfriend to be happy. Sheâs got you in her life, and it sounds like youâre already her best man.â
âSo what am I supposed to do?â he asks, defeated.
âKeep being a good kid. Do your homework, pick up your bedroom, eat your vegetables, keep making your mum smile. I can guarantee youâll make her happy doing those things.â
âHow do you know? Do you have kids?â
Killian chuckles and looks over to Ariel who has got the biggest grin on her face. âI donât, but I have a friend with a son, and he loves when his son cleans up and behaves well.â
âYeah, my mom is happy when I clean up, too.â
âExactly,â Killian sighs. âNow, I think it might be time for you to go to bed. I donât want you to get in trouble with your mum.â
âIâm at my dadâs. She doesnât know Iâm on the phone.â
âSheâs a mother. She has her ways of knowing all.â
âOh crap,â Henry gulps. âIâve got to go. Bye.â
And then the phone line goes dead. âWell, that was certainly one of my favorite calls,â Killian says into the microphone with a slight chuckle, ânow hereâs the new James Taylor. Enjoy. Iâll be back for more calls soon.â

The thing about working at night is that when Killian goes places, theyâre mostly empty. The gym has only a few night owls spread out across the machines, the roads are barren, grocery stores are ghost towns except for teenagers wandering around and a few people in their pajamas picking up medicine or other emergency supplies.
But then thereâs him getting eggs and milk and having the entire frozen foods aisle to himself.
Well, almost.
Thereâs a woman standing a few feet down from him staring intently at the section of ice cream. Sheâs got long, blonde hair thatâs curled and falls down her back, and the dress sheâs wearing is sinful. Itâs short and red, hugging every single curve of her body, and while he would expect her to have heels on, she doesnât. Instead sheâs wearing a well-loved pair of trainers, shoelaces tucked in instead of tied, and whoever she was wearing heels for is long gone.
If the ice cream perusal and last-minute change of shoes are any indication.
He wants to ask if sheâs alright, but he knows thatâs the lack of sleep talking and the fact that heâs spent the last few hours giving advice on the radio and listening to nearly every love song in existence. Killian isnât an idiot, however, and he knows better than to approach a woman in the middle of the night. Heâll look like a stalker or someone trying to hurt her, and thatâs not something he ever wants to do.
Being a gentleman and all that.
But then she turns, and he recognizes her.
She lives in his apartment complex, and God help him, heâs stared at her as she walks across the lobby who knows how many times. They obviously run in the same kind of circles, but he must have been missing her lately. Itâs been weeks since heâs caught a glance at her, and thatâs probably for the best. Nothing good can come of him admiring a woman he doesnât know.
Nothing good can come of him admiring a woman for more than one night.
Killian quickly grabs a frozen pizza and a few healthier options even if he doesnât think frozen meals can ever truly be healthy, and takes his basket to the front of the store where heâs checked out by the same older woman that rings him up every time he comes in here. She wears a different name tag each time, and she never corrects him when he calls her by the name. Today sheâs Barbara, and she grunts her usual pleasantries before handing him back his bags.
He makes a last-minute decision to get a soda from the vending machine outside. He wonât drink it now, but itâll be nice to tide him over between cups of coffee tomorrow. The machine eats his first dollar but accepts the second, and by the time he has a Diet Coke in his hand, his neighbor is also outside the store and heading back toward the parking lot as he does the same.
They pull out at the same time, but she gets on the road first. There are no other drivers out and about, and while Killian usually listens to something, his brain is too tired to listen to another song or a podcast or his follow-up host who is always far too chipper for such an awful time slot. The womanâs yellow bug pulls into a street parking spot, and he takes the one behind her, getting out with his groceries and his bag from work before walking toward the front entrance and hitting in the code. Only after he gets inside does the woman bother to get out and follow him inside.
Maybe she doesnât recognize him in the way that he recognizes her.
âYou dropped your gum.â
Killian stops and turns around at the sound of her voice.
âWhat?â
âYour gum.â She holds up a small container of his preferred-flavor. âIt fell out of your bag onto the sidewalk outside.â
Killian looks down in his bag, sees that the gum is missing, and then steps forward to take it out of her hand. âThank you, love. I appreciate that. Did you decide on a flavor of ice cream?â
Her eyes widen, and he can now see how unbelievably green they are. But he can also see the purple bags underneath them and the redness from an obvious lack of sleep.
What the hell is wrong with him? Why is he still analyzing her when he has now informed her that he was bloody staring at her in the store?
He very obviously needs to go to bed.
âRocky Road.â
âAh, Iâm more of a fruit flavored ice cream man myself, but rocky road is a great choice.â
âYeah, I think so.â
Silence falls between them, and Killian thinks now is the time for both of them to turn their separate ways and never speak again. Tonight is simply two ships passing in the night, and theyâll rarely cross paths this closely again.
UnlessâŠ
âKillian Jones, 407.â
Her lips press into a straight line. âEmma Swan.â
He doesnât fail to notice she doesnât give her apartment number, but really, no sane person should be giving that out to a near stranger. He is apparently no longer sane. âWell, itâs a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Swan. Iâll let you go so your ice cream doesnât melt.â
âIt was nice to meet you, too. I hope you enjoy the, uh, gum.â
Killian bites his tongue to keep from chuckling. âGoodnight, love.â

Ariel sends him a link.
Itâs to a Buzzfeed article about a kid calling into a radio show and telling the host that his mom has a crush on her neighbor and he wants to help her find a boyfriend. There are a Sleepless in Seattle gifs and references all throughout the article, and when Killian keeps scrolling, he sees tweets about the show and about Henry calling in.
Killian doesnât use his own Twitter. He lets Ariel do it, so it takes him a few minutes to log in and get adjusted to the format thatâs different than the last time he used it.
And to the fact that heâs got more notifications and followers than heâs ever had.
Is this all because of that one call?
He knows his program is popular, but itâs mostly popular in the greater Portland area with a few other cities picking it up. Heâs got a podcast on Spotify that he does every week, and he knows that he works to get more listeners. This is a job he accidentally got into after working at a station at university, and he still thinks it can all be a load of shit, but a manâs got to make a living.
But this? Going viral over a call with a kid?
This was unexpected.
He immediately calls Ariel.
âIsnât it awesome?â she screeches into the phone before he can even say hello. âYour social media following has gone up by 80%, and thatâs just been in the five hours since that article was posted. Oh my gosh, weâre going to have to follow back up with this. Maybe we can get Henry back on the phone, and maybe we can somehow talk to the mom and have her talk to her neighbor. People would lose their minds.â
âA, I think youâre losing your mind. Calm down.â
âWhen in the history of telling me to calm down have I ever calmed down?â
Killian sighs and rolls over on his bed. âWe cannot exploit this womanâs feelings for more ratings. Iâm not doing that.â
âWhat do you mean? We do things like that all the time.â
âWe do not think up segments and try to force someone to talk to their neighbor who they have feelings for. People call in for advice, for who knows what reason, and itâs their choice to take it or not. I do not force it on anyone.â
Ariel grumbles something unintelligible on the other end of the line. âI hate when you get all moral on me.â
âI like to think Iâm always moral.â
âIâve known you for ten years, Jones. I know thatâs not true.â
His eyes shut and he runs his hand over his face, trying to rub away all of the memories that are trying to come back. He has no idea what time it is, but he knows that itâs too bloody early for all of that.
âLook, the kidâs mom doesnât know we called. Heâs going to get grounded for weeks if we call back. I want to do it off-air, approve it ahead of time, and if the lass says no, thatâs it. We can still talk about it on-air, but weâre not going to invade her privacy.â
âAs your producer, I think youâre missing an opportunity. As your friend, I think youâre doing the right thing.â
âAnd thatâs the balance we always seem to strike.
-/-
No one answers when Ariel calls.
She is crushed.
He is relieved.
Every caller that night mentions his call with Henry.
Ariel says itâs the highest numbers theyâve had in years.
-/-
Sheâs at the grocery store again.
Sheâs looking at ice cream once more while he picks out another frozen pizza. Heâs desperately got to get back into cooking actual meals again.
Itâs been two weeks since he last saw her, and yet again, sheâs in a tight dress, her hair and makeup perfectly done, but her feet are clothed in trainers.
âRun out of the last batch?â
She jumps at the sound of his voice, but then her shoulders fall and her head hangs down. âIce cream doesnât last long in my place. I should really buy the bigger containers, but then Iâll eat all of it at once and none of my clothes will fit.â
âSo you simply buy a new, small container every few weeks?â
âEvery week, but I try not to think about it too much.â
Killian chuckles, and he thinks thereâs a small smile peeking at the corner of her lips. âHave you tried the Banana Split? I know youâre a Rocky Road kind of lass, but I have it on good authority that itâs an excellent flavor.â
She leans back against the glass and raises her brow. âOh, really? Who told you that?â
âA very dashing man.â His brows move up and down on their own accord, and he knows he manages getting a smile from her all on his own this time. âIâll buy you a pint, my treat.â
âI can buy my own ice cream.â
âYeah, but Iâm suggesting it, and if you donât like it, I donât want you having spent your money on it.â He opens the door sheâs not leaning against, grabs two pints of the banana split, and then hands her one. âHave one on me, Swan.â
Her eyes roll, but she takes it. âThank you.â
-/-
He sees her next the next day at the mailboxes in their lobby. Itâs a different look for her, leggings and a sports bra with her hair pulled into a baseball cap, and she waves as he passes by before mentioning how much she liked the ice cream.
âGoodâ is all he manages to say in response.
-/-
Killian has off from the radio Saturday night. The station has moved him to only weekdays, so he tries to keep as normal of a schedule as possible. He wakes around eight, texts Liam to see how heâs been doing, goes to the gym, runs a few errands, and then is back in his apartment and doing laundry a little after noon. He sets up his equipment to do his podcast, and once thatâs finished, heâs a free man.
A free man with no plans.
Scarlet is working at the bar, itâs Robâs weekend with Roland, and Ariel and Eric are out of town for the weekend. He could call Liam again, but itâs nearly midnight in England now. Liam and Elsa are probably asleep.
Damn.
But maybe itâll be nice to have a day to himself where he can catch up on whatever shows heâs been missing while straightening up the place. It probably needs a good deep cleaning, and he doesnât know how heâs let it get as bad as he has. Liamâs Navy tendencies definitely rubbed off on Killian, and he desperately wants to curse his brother every time he spends far too long making his bed.
Killian puts Ozark on the television and starts cleaning, dusting the bookshelves and folding throw blankets before shifting around some of the records on the shelf opposite his books. Soon, itâs evening, and he stops wiping down his kitchen countertops to grab a pizza out of the freezer and pop it into the oven. When itâs finished, he nearly takes it to the couch to eat, but at the last moment, he decides to take his plate and his beer up to the apartmentâs roof so he can eat at one of the picnic tables there and enjoy the early fall weather.
There are a few other people sitting around in the lounge chairs and at the table, and the elderly couple that lives on the first floor is tending to the garden theyâve set up that is producing the last of its goods. Killian nods at them before finding an almost empty table and settling down there.
âWhat kind of pizza is that?â
Killian finishes chewing his bite and turns to the kid sitting at the opposite end of the table. Heâs ten, at most, and is wearing a Red Sox cap thatâs too big for his head.
âPepperoni,â Killian mumbles. âWhat are you eating?â
âMy mom is making us hamburgers, but sheâs making me eat a salad first. Itâs gross.â
âOh, come on now, a salad isnât gross. You need your vegetables.â
The kid groans and leans back in his chair. âAre you just saying that because youâre an adult and thatâs what youâre supposed to say?â
âAre adults supposed to say things like that, lad?â
He reluctantly picks a piece of lettuce off of his plate and puts it in his mouth. âMy mom and my aunt say I have to eat vegetables. I donât believe them.â
Killian chuckles and looks down to his plate, which has a distinct lack of vegetables. Itâs his cheat day, but still, some lettuce wouldnât kill him.
Itâd do the opposite if it does what heâs telling this kid it does.
âI promise, vegetables are good for you. Youâve simply got to find some you like. Iâm a fan of carrots and spinach. Have you ever had eggplant? You can make eggplant taste like a pizza if you want. The same with cauliflower.â
The kidâs nose scrunches up. âIs that what your pizza is made of?â
âNo,â he laughs, âno, itâs not.â
âHenry, have you finished your â oh.â
Killian looks up at the sound of her voice, and thatâs when he sees her. Today, her hair is in a set of double braids, she has on a white tank top and jeans that seem much more relaxed than her usual attire, and sheâs holding a tray with several hamburgers on top of them.
God, sheâs stunning.
Is thisâŠis this her son?
And did she call him Henry?
Bloody hell.
This is the Henry from the phone call. He thought the kid sounded familiar when he first started talking, but he didnât think too much of it. There was no way that the kid who called him and has had his show blow up with views and calls over the past few weeks lived in Killianâs apartment complex, and thereâs really no way that his mum is Emma Swan.
What are the odds?
And who the hell in this apartment complex does Emma fancy?
No, no, thatâs not any of his business, but he might need to tell the woman that her son is calling into radio shows.
Wait.
If Henry knows about his show, odds are he knows who Killian is. The little rascal.
âHello, love,â Killian greets, flashing Emma a smile. âYour son here was just telling me about how he doesnât like his vegetables.â
Her eyes roll, and she seems to unfreeze from the way she was stiffly standing above them. âWeâre currently having a stalemate over vegetables, but Henry has to eat his salad before he can have his cheeseburger.â
âMom.â
âKid.â
âI donât like it.â
âHenry, this is not a negotiation. Just because your dad didnât make you eat any when you visited him doesnât mean you donât need them.â
Henry angrily stabs his fork at a few pieces and stuffs them in his mouth before Emma sits down and places the tray between them. âSo, you decided to eat dinner up here, too?â
âAye. I figured Iâd enjoy the weather. I didnât realize so many other people would have the same thought.â
âEveryone, apparently. Oh, the Banana Split ice cream was fantastic. Between the two of us, we ate it in a day.â
âItâs soooo much better than Rocky Road,â Henry mumbles with lettuce in between his teeth.
âIt is rather good, isnât it?â
âItâs great. Do you, uh, do you want a burger? I have extras.â
âOh, I couldnât impose, lass. I have my pizza.â
âYou have frozen pizza thatâs not even the good brand. Please, have a burger. Thereâs no way Henry and I will finish them all, and I had to do something with the meat before it went bad.â
Killian looks between his pizza and the burgers. They smell delicious, and really, he can have the pizza later. Itâs just as good cold.
âI would love one, Swan.â
âPerfect.â
Itâs surprisingly comfortable to sit and eat dinner with Emma and her son considering he barely knows them. He and Emma have spoken a few times over the past few weeks, but it was simple pleasantries. It wasnât anything like learning that Henry is in the third grade and that Emma works in bail bonds, which explains her late nights. She doesnât say anything definite, but he gathers that Henryâs father is barely in the picture despite Henry staying with him a few times recently, and while heâs curious, itâs none of his business.
Sheâs not asking him about his relationships, so really, what business does he have thinking about hers?
In the light of day, she seems kinder and less reserved than she is when he usually sees her. Happier, even.
âSo what do you do?â Emma asks as she dabs her mouth with a napkin. âI forgot to ask earlier.â
âHeâs on the radio,â Henry says.
And then the kidâs eyes go wide, and it seems that Henry has realized his mistake.
âAnd how do you know that?â
âUhhhh, he said so.â
âI donât believe he did. Do you listen to his show or something? Did you listen to him at your dadâs?â
âNo.â
âThen how?â
âI have to go to the bathroom,â Henry squeals before scrambling off the bench. âCan I have the key?â
Emmaâs eyes narrow, but she still digs into her pocket and hands him the keys. âDo you have your phone with you?â
âMhm. Iâll call you if Iâm in danger.â
âGood. Now go even though I know youâre faking it.â
He giggles, but he takes the keys, quickly running to the door that takes him down the stairs. Killian canât stifle his laughter, and Emma turns to look at him with her lips pressed into a straight line.
âOkay, what kind of radio show do you have, and why is my kid listening to it?â
Killian sighs and takes a sip of his beer. âI have a show thatâs on between nine and two, at night of course, and people unfortunately call me âThe Love Doctor.ââ
âYouâre not serious.â
âOh, no, love, I unfortunately am. In between songs, people call in and ask for relationship advice, they share stories, we bring in experts, all of that, and, well, your son happened to call me a few weeks ago because he wants his mum to have a boyfriend. I, of course, did not know that the lad who called was your Henry until I met him an hour ago.â
The firm line of Emmaâs lips has turned into a gaping, exasperated smile. âHe did what now?â
Killianâs hand reaches up to scratch behind his ear. âHe called. He said that you fancied someone in the building, and he wanted you to be happy. It was truly rather sweet. Itâs been getting the show all kinds of attention, so I can get you a copy of the call if you want.â
Her cheeks are suddenly tinted with a beautiful shade of red, but theyâre quickly hidden away by her palms. âOh my God. Oh my God. He called in a show and asked for help getting me a boyfriend?â
âI was extremely charmed. My producer tried to call him back, so we could all talk off-air. He didnât answer, and he probably knows heâs been caught in the act. Thatâs likely why he suddenly had to run to the restroom.â
Emma groans and leans down, burying her face in her hands as she mumbles something unintelligible. âHow long ago was it?â
âAbout two weeks.â
âFuck. Thatâs when he was with his dad, who apparently has a new girlfriend. Thatâs got to be why he called. I donât â just, oh my God.â She finally looks back up at him, peeking through her fingers. âWhat did you tell him?â
âI told him to leave the adult things to the adults and to keep being a good kid because it sounded like he was a really good kid.â
âHe is. Like, far better than I deserve. I didnât think heâd be calling radio stations, though. Iâm going to have to talk to him about this.â
Killian nods over Emmaâs shoulder. âI think heâs decided to brave your wrath and come back.â
Henry sheepishly walks back up to the table and slides onto the seat. âCan we go get some more ice cream?â
-/-
Killian eats dinner with them again the next Saturday. Itâs a coincidence once more, but this time theyâre the only ones on the roof and choose to still sit together. Henry tells him about his week at school and fills in things Emma has told him about her work. Though, he already knew about some of it when they both got back to the apartment at the same time Wednesday night and talked for a few minutes.
It becomes a tradition of sorts, their Saturday afternoon meals. He offers to cook the next week, Emma offers the week after that, and he finds himself writing down new plans on his calendar for the foreseeable future. He doesnât dare tell Ariel that he found their kid caller and his mum or that he would now call the both of them friends, but he does tell Liam.
Liam cannot stop laughing over the phone, but itâs still better than the all-consuming meltdown Ariel would have.
And really, Killian canât blame him for his reaction. The two of them both know that Killian has been set in his routines for the past few years. He used to be more carefree, used to be capable of being a little more spontaneous, but then Milah died and having a routine was really the only thing that kept him sane.
It still is.
Even if heâs finding new things, or rather, new people, to fit into his routine.
-/-
âKillian, do you like Harry Potter?â
âI love Harry Potter. Why? Are you reading it?â
âWe read it at night,â Emma explains as she puts a plate in front of Henry. He scrunches his nose up at the sight of peas, but it quickly passes. âWeâre on the second one.â
âThe Chamber of Secrets,â Henry says. âWeâre almost finished, and I want to go buy the third one, but Mom wonât let me.â
âWell, do you have to have it before youâve finished the second one? Then you might be tempted to read the next one ahead of time.â
âI promise I wonât.â
âHenry, can you go and get your Lego set from your room? Didnât you want to show Killian the pirate ship youâre building?â
âWhat about my food?â
âItâll still be here when you get back.â
He narrows his eyes at his mother. âDonât eat my roll.â
âIâm not going to.â Emma crosses her fingers over her heart, this thing heâs noticed the two of them do. âNow, go.â
He nods and runs off before Emma turns her attention back to Killian. âHeâs getting the box set of the books for Christmas, but he wonât stop pestering me about needing the third book right now. Iâve just got to hold him off for another week, but damn if it isnât hard.â
Killian chuckles and stands from the table in order to fix his own plate, grabbing an extra roll to split with Henry. âDid he not put the books on his list for Santa? I know he was writing a letter.â
âNo, he put things like a motorcycle and his very own airplane on his list for Santa. Luckily, there were a few more accessible things, too.â
Killian hums in response and rejoins Emma at the table. âI hope itâs alright, love, but I may have gotten the boy a notebook and some new colored pencils. Heâs always drawing with mine when we have dinner there, and I figured it would be nice. But if you think thatâs inappropriate, I can return them.â
âKillian, no,â she sighs as she reaches over and covers her hand with his, âthatâs not inappropriate at all. ThatâsâŠI mean, thatâs really sweet. I â â
âYou what?â
Her lips are parted into a pretty pink smile, but Killian canât seem to focus on that. Instead, his attention is still drawn to the way her palm is resting against his knuckles and how he can feel each stroke of her thumb. This might be the first time Emmaâs ever touched him, and thereâs a heat that sparks along his skin and down his spine, settling in the pit of his stomach even as it swirls around.
Is this?
Is he?
Are they?
No.
âKillian, look!â Henry comes parading back in the room with a large ship made entirely out of Legos. âLook at this. Didnât you say your brother has a big ship?â
âHe does, but I donât think itâs nearly as magnificent as this one. This is bloody brilliant, lad!â
âYeah?â
âOf course. Did you do this by yourself?â
He shrugs, but thereâs no denying the beam in his smile. âYeah, but I followed the instructions. Do you want to see those?â
âMaybe after dinner, okay? We wouldnât want your peas to get cold. Iâm pretty sure youâve grown at least a foot since you started eating vegetables, and we canât stop that.â
âIâve grown three inches this year.â
âWell, only a few more to go.â
-/-
Itâs Christmas when Killian realizes he may possibly fancy Emma.
(When he realizes that he definitely does.)
(Without a doubt.)
He eats breakfast with Liam and Elsa over FaceTime and then goes to have lunch with Ariel and Eric before they travel to see Arielâs parents for dinner. Will is out of town meeting Belleâs family, and Robin always spends Christmas in New York with Rolandâs grandparents.
Killian should have gotten a ticket and flown home this year, but he was saving the money to be able to visit after Elsa gives birth in May.
Itâs fine. This isnât the first holiday heâs spent mostly alone, and it certainly wonât be the last.
Heâs one glass of rum into one of his nicest bottles when thereâs a knock at his door. Itâs Emma and Henry. Theyâre both in pajamas, neither of their heads of hair tamed, and theyâre holding a tray full of cookies with several Harry Potter movies stacked on top.
âDo you have a DVD player?â
-/-
ES: Did someone really call into your show asking how to choose between their wife and their mistress?
KJ: Indeed.
ES: I have got to listen to this thing. It seems like it canât even be real.
KJ: I promise you that my show is real. And you really should listen to it. I know you like the sound of my voice.
ES: You keep on thinking that.
KJ: You know Iâm on air now, right? You could always turn on the radio.
ES: Iâm sitting in a restaurant, not a car. I need to focus.
KJ: And you donât consider texting a distraction?
ES: Shut up.
His headset beeps, and Killian looks up from his phone to his computer screen to see that they have a new caller.
âHello, this is Radio 105, and youâre speaking to the Love Doctor. How can I help you tonight?â
âKillian!â
Oh shit.
Henry.
âKillian, I need help! My mom is on a date tonight.â
âWoah, woah, woah,â Killian sighs as he glances to Ariel and starts slashing his hand across his neck. He needs her to turn the call off, to go to commercial or something, but sheâs not paying any damn attention to him. This is why he needs access to the full set of controls. âLad, I need you to take a deep breath for me, okay? Can you do that? Like your mum tells you to do when youâre upset.â
âOne,â Henry says. âTwo. Three.â
âGood,â Killian says. âNow, can you please calmly tell me whatâs going on?â
âMy mom dropped me off at my dadâs house, and she was in a nice dress. She told my dad she had something to do, and later I heard him say that my mom was going on a date. But youâre at work, so she canât be going on a date! She canât go on a date when she likes you!â
Killian nearly knocks his coffee all of the controls.
Bloody hell.
âOh. My. God.â Ariel screeches into his headphones.
Great. Now sheâs paying attention.
âOh my God, oh my God, oh holy hell.â
He turns to her and motions for her to cut the call again, and she finally gets the hint and presses a few buttons until he sees that a song just started playing. Heâs going to get hell for that, but he cannot have this conversation live on-air with Henry. He simply canât.
âHenry, are you still there?â
âYeah.â
âOkay, good, so I need you to listen to me, yeah? Can you do that, lad?â
âIâm listening.â
âYour mum isnât on a date. Sheâs working. You know how she has to get dressed up for work sometimes, aye?â
âSometimes.â
âAnd you donât spend that much time with your dad, so he probably doesnât know that. But besides, Emma is an adult she can date whoever she wants to. Why would it have to be me?â
âBecause youâre the guy she likes. From the first time I called. I didnât know it was you, but it is. And I know she still likes you because sheâs always asking you to dinner and texting you. She told Mary Margaret that she likes you, so she canât date someone else. I donât want her to date anyone else.â
âHey, hey, Henry,â Killian soothes. His heart is beating a mile a minute, and his head is going in several different directions, but he canât focus on himself right now. âItâs okay. Youâre okay. Listen, I donât know if your mum and I are ever going to go on a date, but Iâm always going to be your friend. Iâll keep cooking dinner and reading books with you. Weâll go to the aquarium next week. Are you still wanting to do that?â
âYeah,â he meekly whispers. âBut I really want you to be my momâs boyfriend.â
âCan I tell you a secret? I really want to be your mumâs boyfriend, too, but thatâs not a decision just I can make. Itâs up to her, too.â
Henry sighs, and Killian can so easily imagine him laying across his bed in the dark at Nealâs house. His nose is probably scrunched up just like Emmaâs does when sheâs frustrated, and if he had to bet, heâd say that Henryâs legs are dangling off and just barely touching the ground.
âAre you going to pick me up on Friday?â
âI will be at school waiting for you, lad. I promise. Now, go to bed before you get in trouble, and I will put my number in your phone so you can call me without having to call the show next time. Goodnight, Henry.â
âGoodnight, Killian.â
As soon as the phone line goes dead, Killian leans down and buries his face in his hands. He hears the studio door click open, a chairâs wheel creak, and he knows Ariel is in front of him without bothering to open his eyes.
âSo, were you just never going to tell me that the woman and her kid who youâve been hanging out with for the past seven months is the same woman and kid who made your show famous?â
âI didnât know when he called.â
âWhat?â
âWhen he first called, I didnât know who he was. He didnât know who I was either. Iâd seen Emma around the apartment a few times, but then we started running into each other at the grocery store after we both got off work. I figured it out when we were all eating dinner on the roof maybe two weeks after the call. I told Emma, so she knows, too. I justâŠthis entire time Iâve assumed that the man she fancied was someone else. I never would have assumed it was me, but Henry? Henry says that itâs me.â
Arielâs hand rests on his knee and squeezes. âKillian Jones, you are a catch, and that woman would be a fool not to be with you. What are you going to do?â
âGod, I donât know.â He takes a deep breath and leans back to run his hands through his hair and pinch the bridge of his nose. How the hell does he give people advice when his own life is such a mess? âI need to talk to Emma, tell her what Henry called me about. He was pretty freaked out. I canât start anything with her without considering him. I donât know how to navigate this. I should. Milah had a son, but she never let me meet him. I donât know. I donât know if I have any idea what Iâm doing.â
âTo me, it sounds like you know exactly what youâre doing.â She taps his knee once more. âWeâve got to finish the show. Thereâs only so much air-time I can fill with songs and me doing the commercial breaks. Do you think you can finish?â
All he does is nod.
-/-
Emma is waiting for him outside his apartment door.
Sheâs in her preferred red dress that she wears when she does one of her honeytraps, but she doesnât have on the heels. Or her trainers. Instead, sheâs without shoes, the heels flung next to her purse on the ground, and sheâs got what looks like a takeout bag in the middle of all of it.
âSwan?â
She looks up and blinks. âIâm sorry. I am so, so sorry. I didnât think he would do that again. Itâs your job, and he shouldnât have messed it up like that. Iâve got to give him your number so he can call you directly. He should already have it since you pick him up from school sometimes, but I didnât think. I didnât â â
âHey, hey, hey,â he soothes as he steps up to her and places his hands on her shoulders. His fingers trail over her skin, pushing the loose strands back until heâs tucking the ones around her face behind her ears so he can see her eyes. Heâs never quite gotten over how green they are. âHenry didnât do anything wrong. How do you know that he even called?â
âThey had your show on in the restaurant I was waiting for my skip in. Thatâs why I texted you about the whole wife versus mistress thing. But was I literally putting the handcuffs on my skip as I heard my sonâs voice freaking out about me being on a date. He knows I dress up for work sometimes. I donât know why he let Neal get into his head like that.â
âNeal is his dad. Heâs going to be influenced by him.â
Emma scoffs and leans forward until her forehead is resting against his nose. âNeal is going to break his heart one day. I just know it. Heâs only been in his life for two years, and heâs already screwed up so many times. Henry just hasnât realized it yet.â
âHenry is going to be just fine. Heâs an excellent lad.â
âWhat kind of excellent lad calls into radio shows to talk about his momâs dating life? He literally told youâŠoh my God, Killian, he told you that I liked you, didnât he?â
He laughs into her hair and kisses the top of her head while his hands run up and down her back. Emmaâs hands move up his back, nails scratching through his t-shirt. When did they get there?
More importantly, can they stay?
âHe did.â
âJust lock me in my apartment forever. Iâm ready to die of embarrassment.â
âNow, Swan, donât do that. Youâre not the first woman to fancy me. Iâve been told that Iâm devilishly handsome after all.â
âShut up.â
âNo, no, I canât, and after all, I have the same feelings for you.â
âYou think Iâm devilishly handsome?â
Killian chuckles into her hair once more before lifting her chin with the tip of his finger so he can see those green, green eyes once more.
âI think youâre beautiful, and I also think that I like you just as much as your son says you like me.â
He doesnât even care that he sounds like heâs in primary school.
âYeah, but â â
Thereâs no point in bothering to let Emma finish her protest. Sheâs going to doubt his words, and really, if heâs learned anything about Emma in the past few months, itâs that sheâs a woman who likes action over pretty words and promises. She likes for someone who is going to show up when he says he will and who isnât going to back down.
Kissing her seems like pretty much the only way to tell her that he has no intentions of backing down.
Emmaâs words are caught by his lips, and the first thing he feels is the vibration of them before she stops talking and settles her lips with his. Theyâre exactly as soft as they look, softer possibly, and the hairs on the back of Killianâs neck stand up as he realizes that this feeling, this euphoria, is him kissing Emma Swan.
He groans when she fully opens her mouth to him, the warmness of her melting into him, and his fingers find purchase in her hair, tugging and tilting just like he wants to. His tongue drags along her lip as her hairs fall over his neck and slip into his hair, tugging and pulling in her own way.
One other thing he knows about Emma is that she is not afraid to take charge.
But Killian likes that, too, likes getting what he wants, and right now all he can think about is backing Emma up to his door and kissing her in the way that she deserves to be kissed. Her tongue is warm when it slides against his. Itâs a wet slide of heat and what he thinks is the slightest hint of whiskey and chocolate, but mostly, itâs all Emma. Sheâs kissing him exactly how he wants to be kissing her, and the heat between them simmers along his skin and down his spine until it settles.
If this is what kissing Emma Swan is like, he doesnât know why he didnât find the courage sooner.
Because he didnât want to mess the first good thing heâs found in a long, long time. Thatâs why.
She pulls away with a gasp, but he canât stop kissing her, canât stop pressing his hips into hers and feeling the way she groans. His teeth drag along her jaw and her neck until he settles at her ear, and the sound she makes is so damn delectable that he loses his own breath. Thatâs only for a moment, though, because then sheâs opening her legs so he can settle into her space while heâs licking the lobe of her ear and groaning himself.
âOh my God.â
âIâm very tempted to make an awful joke right now, love.â
She laughs at the same time that her hips press down against his hardening length, and sheâs definitely trying to kill him.
âI have a ten-year-old. Iâm used to the bad jokes.â
The thought of Henry sobers Killian, and he noses at Emmaâs collarbone and the swell of the top of her breast before pulling himself up and putting enough space between them so he can look into her eyes and speak without his lips brushing against hers.
He does not, however, remove his hand from her ass.
He is, decidedly, not always the gentleman he claims to be.
âWe can stop right now, Emma,â he tells her. âWe can stop right now, and things will go back to how they were. I told Henry earlier that I will always be his friend, and I think right now, I need to tell you the same. No matter what happens from this point forward.â
Emma swallows and nods, but her fingertips are still brushing against the nape of his neck. It feels fucking fantastic, and he doesnât know what heâll do if it all stops.
âIf someone else said that to me, I donât think Iâd believe it, but with you, I do.â Her head tilts back against the door, and she smiles that beautiful smile of hers. âAnd if you ever do something to hurt that kidâs feelings, I will kill you.â
âOf that, I have no doubt, darling.â
âGood. Now stop talking and take me inside your apartment. I want to get your pants off.â
He arches his brow. âIs that so?â
âYeah,â she laughs with a role of her hips. âYeah, I do.â
-/-
âWell,â Killian sighs into the microphone, âitâs been quite a night, hasnât it? I hope everyone has found the clarity they needed for their relationships, no matter where those relationships stand. I also hope youâve heard some damn good music.â
The instrumental music that plays him out at the end of every show starts coming to an end, and Killian smiles, knowing whatâs waiting for him in a little over an hour.
âOh, and one last thing. Does everyone remember our favorite kid caller, Henry? Heâs been getting some frequent flier miles over here lately, hasnât he? Well, Iâm happy to report that his mother has that boyfriend now, the one in her apartment complex she fancied. I think Henry might be taking over my name as The Love Doctor.â

hii! I'm not having the best night and I felt like compiling a list of my favorite fics that never fail to make me smile when I'm down or have provided me a beautifully worded escape for a while :)Â
disclaimer: I will list the specifics for those interested, but there is a mix of bl / bh so be aware of that please. these are the fics that make ME happy and I want to spread some positivity for the talented authors that have gotten me through some rough times, so please leave any negativity out of it and stick to your own preferences.Â
thank you and happy reading! âĄ
â° enter the rose garden (GA, 10k, imp. b!L) by @angelichl
Soft heats make omega Louis clingy. Enter alpha Harry.Â
â° before we knew (E, 40k, b!L)Â by @risthebrave / falsegoodnightÂ
Louis has been skeptical of soulmates for years so it seems like fate when he finally bumps into the owner of the obnoxiously large signature printed into his skin since age sixteen: Harry Styles, a human rights attorney who is firmly against soulmates.
â° baby we could be enough (I'll make this feel like home) (E, 57k, b!H)Â
âDid you clean the table?â Harry asks Louis once Rose is done speaking, now occupied with trying to see if she can reach over and touch Harryâs hair from where sheâs sat. At Louisâ nod, Harry frowns. âYou didnât have to do that. Youâre my guests here, I couldâve dealt with it later.â
Louis just smiles easily, though, adjusting Rose on his lap so that sheâs facing Harry better. She manages to tug on a loose wave of hair, and she makes a noise of triumph that both Louis and Harry smile at.
âI donât mind,â Louis murmurs to Harry, even though heâs looking at Rose. âThis one here seemed very excited to talk to you.â
And, okay. Harry canât help but think of how domestic this feels, all of a sudden.
[harry is a photographer who's trying to find his place. louis is a single father with a smile that feels like home.]

â° undone, undress (E, 134k, b!H) by @angelichl
Louis' new roommate is shy, skittish, and flinches at the slightest sounds. He's an art major who gets drunk on cherry wine, wears lacy lingerie, and shows up late at night covered in bruises that blossom across his skin like flowers.
Obviously something is wrong. Louis just doesn't know what it is.
personal note: this fic is amazing and has been very validating for me, but please make sure to check the tags and authorâs note for any possible triggers before reading and make the best choice for yourself!Â
â° ours are the moments I play in the dark (E, 30k, b!L) by @holdingthornsandroses / edensrose
Jane Austen's Persuasion AU. Nine years ago Louis Tomlinson was persuaded to break off his engagement to Harry Styles, a poor sailor.

In a complete reversal of fortune, Harry has returned to England a wealthy bachelor looking to settle down.

[Louis and Harry are both students living in the same apartment complex. They end up having the same laundry night and time. Louis can't stop staring at Harry and he can't figure out why Harry consistently points out Louisâ inside-out shirts, and his untied shoes, and messy hair. Enter slow burn-ish flirting, banter, awkwardness, and a lot of laundry.]Â
â° everywhere and nowhere (E, 16k, b!L) by @2tiedships2Â
Niall took a seat and said, "Apparently Louis' downstairs neighbor is a fan of giving Louis creepy gifts. Maybe I should go introduce myself and tell him that Louis actually prefers food."
"What has he given you?" Liam asked.
Louis shrugged as it were no big deal. "There was a rabbit's foot keychain on the door a little after he left from introducing himself and there was a small teddy bear sitting by my door tonight. Obviously I can't prove it's from him, but they seem to have his scent. I could be wrong though."
"Wow," Liam said, looking deep in thought. "That's old school."
"What's old school?" Niall asked. "Giving creepy gifts?"
"I've never known an alpha to do it, to be honest, but he's courting you."
Louis couldn't contain his look of disbelief directed at Liam. "He's courting me. Like some sort of romantic shit they'd do in the 1800s or something?"
â° thinking about the t-shirt you sleep in (E, 52k, b!L) by @absoloutenonsense / nonsensedarling
Harry's alpha fraternity donates to a local thrift shop (because of Liam's latent crush on a cute beta in his lecture). Louis' financial situation (and confusing omega instincts) lead him to make some interesting fashion purchases. Lots of pizza, feelings, and not-really-lying.

The Nancy Drew AU where Marcel is a man of logic, Louis is a private detective who believes in ghosts, and the Styles Mansion is definitely, absolutely, positively *not* haunted.
â° building castles in the sky (GA, 22k, no smut) by @whileatwiltshire
"D-dad? You think I c-can do it? Y-you think i c-can..." Evan trailed off looking down at his chest. And Louis' heart melted.
"I think you can do everything, love. Everything." Louis said while pulling his boy closer. "Because you, my little dandelion, are very brave! And so strong and wonderful and so very bright! You will go up on that stage, and you will blow everyone away. I just know it."
They laid there on their porch while they hugged each other tightly. His little boy was so brave. Louis didn't need to see him on a stage to be proud. He was proud of him already.
"You know,â Evan mumbled aloud again. âMr. S-Styles says the same t-thing. He s-says I c-can do e-everything too.â
And Louis couldn't help but smile.
or,
Where, Louis had a four year old with a stuttering problem. Harry was always there to help.
â°Â a trail of honey through it all (E, 27k, b!L)Â by faeriestylesÂ
the TPH* fic weâve all been waiting for.Â
* (trailer park harry)
â° we should open up (before itâs all too much) (E, 43k, b!H) by @disgruntledkittenface
Struggling with grieving and depression since his dad died, Harry has never felt so alone. Itâs too much to cope with on his own, but he feels like a burden when he tries to open up with people.
Then he meets Louis.
personal note: I cannot stress enough how much this fic means to me and it is very close to my heart, but I strongly suggest checking the tags for any possible triggers before reading!!Â
â° my loveâs not simple (itâs fragile)Â (E, 27k, b!L) by @risthebrave / falsegoodnightÂ
Harry's new job is threatened by his impending rut. Desperate for a solution, he allows Niall to introduce him to Louis, an omega whose heat begins the same day. They click.
â°Â swept me off my feet (took my heart and took me down) (E, 25k, b!L) by jennifer_kaid
When Louis had decided to reopen his mother's bakery, he never thought a charming alpha would walk in through the door, let alone fall in love with him over tea, dessert and music.
â° knock knock, I love you (E, 86k, b!H) by @thelovejandles / beautlouis
[Harry and Louis get kicked out of a statistics exam for passing a knock knock joke note, and subsequently fall in love. Harry's a virgin, there's a cat, a hot cocoa date, a lot of sex, even more knock knock jokes, and everything is lovely and happy.]Â
â° enjoy the ride (E, 11k, imp. b!L) by @2tiedships2
the one where Louis, an omega more than tired of being treated as lesser than alphas, is forced on a road trip by his beta besties only to meet Harry who might just be the alpha he never knew he wanted.
â° fading (E, 202k, b!L) by tothemoonmydear
Louis knows about beauty; the combination of qualities that pleases the aesthetic senses. He creates that combination every day in the garments he designs while studying fashion at uni. The cut of the design, the color of the fabric, the intricacy of the stitching; it all comes together to create something beautiful. When the science student with the long legs and dimpled smile agrees to model for him, Louis decides heâs found beauty personified. Harry just thinks Louis needs someone to show him how beautiful he is.
personal note: another wonderful and realistic story but please check the tags for triggers before reading!Â

busted // colby brock
this was requested by a lovely anon, i went with colby because iâm all in the colby feels right now. (if you canât tell lmao) i apologise if this is dreadful, i didnât know how i wanted to end it.
also, lets pretend the lads still live separately for this one :)
it is based on this prompt list.
masterlist
//Â
yours and colbyâs relationship was still in its early days. youâve been seeing each other for about a month now. however, the both of you have been friends for years. what led to the two of you pursuing a relationship was pizza night, where colby was ridiculously drunk and he decided to confess his undying love for you. you responded by telling him to ring you when he was sober the following morning. around eleven in the morning the next day, colby rang you up, telling you that he was one hundred percent serious about liking you, and that he wanted to give it a go.Â
you were both able to keep your relationship a secret because you were friends with everyone in the group, therefore, they didnât suspect a thing. even though colby has spoken to sam about his feelings for you, sam is oblivious to the fact that you like colby back.Â
it was saturday afternoon and you invited colby around to your apartment so you both could hang out. you lived in the same apartment complex as the lads and you moved in before them, which is how they knew about the apartment complex in the first place.
the loud knock at your door made you jump slightly, and you lifted yourself off the comfortable grey sofa and peeped through the peep hole to double check it was colby. you twisted the lock open, and stepped to the side to let the handsome man in.Â
âhey pretty, how are you?â he asked, pulling you gently into his arms and hugging you tightly.Â
âiâm good thanks, you?â you responded, grinning as you wrapped your arms around his waist.
âIâm better now iâm here with you.â he winked, moving over to the kitchen and he placed the bag full of snacks onto the counter.Â
âwhat you got there, brock?â you walk behind him and rest your chin on his right shoulder to take a peek inside the bag. you watched as he started to lay out chocolate, haribos, oreos and many of his favourite sweets and snacks as well.Â
âthought iâd treat you to your favourites,â he glances over his right shoulder to take a quick look at you. he grins like a cheshire cat when he sees you looking at him with admiration.Â
he turns his body around and leans against the kitchen counter. he pulls you towards him and holds your hips softly. you loop your arms around his neck and sigh in content.Â
âyouâre too good for me.â you study his face and notice that heâs looking at your lips the whole time. the two of you havenât had your first kiss yet, so this moment is huge for the both of you. although, you knew that this moment was the right time to kiss the beautiful man in front of you.Â
you tilt your head up to get a better angle and colby bends his neck down slightly, due to his height. he makes eye contact with you briefly, before turning his attention back to your lips. you smile at him and lean in slowly, studying him to see what he does next. he moves one of his hands off your hip, and rests it on the left side of your face, pulling you even closer to him.Â
âdo you wanna do this?â he questions, observing your face for any hesitation and he wanted to make sure that you were comfortable with him kissing you, as he didnât want you to feel as if you had to.Â
âof course,â you look him in the eye. âkiss me, colby.â you focus your attention back to his lips.Â
he smirks before connecting his lips with yours. your heart was beating rapidly and you were worried in case he could hear it. you tugged on his hair gently, earning a soft hum from colby. your lips moved together for a while, both of you were enjoying the affection. eventually, you released your lips from his to get some air. colby was now beaming at you, which caused your cheeks to have rosy tints to them.Â
âwow, that was something else.â he chuckled, before pressing a quick peck onto your lips, in which you happily returned. colbyâs phone chimed through the kitchen, making him release one of his arms to read his text.Â
âjake and tara want to hang out with us, i can tell them weâre busy if youâd like?â he says. after he reads the text, he looks at you and places his phone onto the marble black counter.Â
âno itâs okay, they can come here. the more the merrier.â you winked, planted a small kiss to his cheek and unlooped your arms from around his neck. you started to put the sweets into the junk food cabinet and colby moved the drinks he brought round into the fridge to keep them cool.Â
âtheyâre on their way here now,â he announced, placing the last white claw into the fridge. you leaned against the counter, so you were standing next to him, making you realise just how tall the man is. âdo you want to tell them about us or are we going to keep it a secret for a while longer?â he questioned, studying your face.
âdo you think youâre ready to tell them?â you questioned him back. âbecause iâm not too bothered, theyâre our friends. theyâre gonna support us either way, hopefully.â you smiled, as he wrapped his left arm around your shoulder.Â
âyeah, iâm ready to tell them, iâm just worried in case i mess anything up between us.â he focuses his gaze on your brown wooden floor. you shift so that youâre standing in front of him and place your hand on his cheek, forcing him to look at you.
âhey, were early days, i know that and we donât know whatâs going to happen. but, colbs, i can tell you this, i like you and only you. youâre not gonna mess anything up, and if you do, iâm here to support you and help fix it because i care about you so much.â he smiles brightly at you, and plants a hard kiss to your lips, his left hand wraps around his waist, whilst his right hand holds your face softly, stroking the smoothness of your skin.Â
the black apartment door opens widely, and jake and tara walk in holding two bags. however, they were quick to notice how close you two were in the moment in time. they both turn to look at each other and raise their eyebrows.Â
âwoah brother, whatâs going on here?â jake lifts an eyebrow towards colbyâs direction, whilst tara is looking at you beaming and winking. the gestures make your face flood with embarrassment, and you shake your head at her.Â
you and colby make eye contact and soft smiles are planted on both of your faces. you shrug your shoulders at him, in which he nods slightly, understanding what youâre getting at. he wraps his arm around your shoulder again and looks up at the two, who canât wipe the smirks off their faces.Â
âi guess you could say weâre dating.â he says casually, which causes tara to squeal loudly in excitement. he turns his head to see your reaction, and he looks at you with pure fondness when he hears your laugh.
âwhat, since when?â jake asks, the smirk is still evident in his voice, even though he is wearing a shocked expression right now.Â
âabout a month, weâve been keeping it on a down low.â you say, squeezing colbyâs side delicately. you look up to see his face, and grin when you see that heâs already looking at you.Â
âwell, weâre happy for you both. you make a good couple.â tara truthfully, smiling widely at you both. âcâmon jake, we need to get more beer, weâre celebrating.â tara grabs jakeâs hand lightly, pulling him towards the door. once the two were out the door, colby wrapped his arms around you waist again, resting his chin on your shoulder.Â
âi feel better now they know.â he says softly, at you run your hand through his hair in a comforting manner.Â
âsame, they seem excited.â you chuckle, placing a kiss onto his cheek that was closer to you. you were both enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, wrapped up in each other's arms. âi canât wait to see what the future holds with us, brock.âÂ
âneither can i, y/l/n.â

Snapshots: the only exception
A/N: SO, I didnât think I was going to be able to post this as quickly as I did, but when the muse hits, it hits. This update definitely went a different way than I had intended too, I hope you all enjoy it!Â
I am going to try and work on an update for Distraction, if not, snapshots will be updated again by the end of next week or maybe even sooner!
Love you all! Thank you for showing snapshots so much love!
You sighed as you walked inside your hotel room. Being in New York was lovely but you missed California. It was April and spring was just making its way through the city. You loved the weather, but you wished your better half was here to enjoy the weather with you. Itâs been two weeks since you went to New York, leaving Angel in Santo Padre. You two FaceTime everyday, but it just wasnât enough. You missed Angel terribly and you were so thankful that you were coming home tomorrow.
There was a knock on your door, which startled you. Rafael was out and about with a fling of his, so who was at the door? You havenât even ordered room service yet.Â
Walking over to the door, you looked through the peephole and you found Jake, holding pizza and beer. Quickly, you opened the door and he greeted you with that usual warm smile of his.
âHey,â he greeted.
âJake,â you returned his smile. âCome in! What are you doing here?â
âRafa told me he ditched you, so I figured Iâd bring you some food and beer. You fly out tomorrow right?â
âYes, thank god, I miss California.â You closed the door, following Jake to the table you had at the corner of your room. You sat on the chair across the window, the intoxicating smell of the pizza overtaking your mind. âOh god, that smells so good.â
âFigured Iâd show you how pizza should actually taste.â
You laughed. Jake used to speak about New York fondly. He wanted to leave San Diego and move back to New York where he spent his undergraduate college career. Jake wanted you to move to New York, knowing your company would gladly transfer you over. But there was just one problem, Angel.
Jake let it slip to Angel, which youâre quite certain was on purpose, that you were thinking of moving to New York. Angel looked at you from across the room and you knew Jake told him. The way his face changed, taking a swig of his beer as he kept his anger at bay.Â
It was an epic fight between you two and was the beginning of the end with Jake.
---------------------
âSo when were you going to tell me youâre moving?â Angel questioned once you two were all alone in your apartment.Â
You sighed, cursing Jakeâs name under your breath. âAngel, Iâm not moving.â
âYou sure? Pretty boy is already picking out the patterns of your plates.âÂ
This was not what you needed right now. Angel wasnât going to talk to you with everyone around. Jake had to leave since he had some family brunch in the morning and his apartment was closer to his parents place. As soon as Jake was out of the door, Angel was itching to speak with you. There was no way you were going to move away, not from him. San Diego was acceptable, but across the country, that wasnât acceptable. If he had to kill Jake, he would, if that meant you were staying beside him, he would do it. He was never a selfish bastard, but as of late, he felt you slipping away and he couldnât handle that.Â
âItâs a process, but you know I would talk to you if I decided to move.â
âSo now itâs a process but you just said you werenât moving.â
âAngel, I donât want to argue about something that may not even happen and honestly doesnât even concern you.â You realize your mistake as the words came out of your mouth. Angelâs face changed from anger to shock to disappointment, it was so quick that you were surprised that you caught those changes.
âWhatâd you just say?â He asked after a long period of silence between you.
âI didnât mean it,â you immediately answer. âI just,â you sighed. âI donât want to move, I canât even imagine being without you, but,â you made eye contact with him then. âI love Jake and if he ends up moving, I would want to be with him.â
Angelâs heart clenched hearing your words. It was the day he feared. It barreled towards him like a truck going down a hill and it hurt. He was crushed.
âThen go be with him.â
Angel didnât know what else to say. He couldnât handle this. He did what he thought would be best, he walked away. He always thought you were his exception, the one who was never going to leave him, the one that would always be by his side.Â
He was wrong.
---------------------
âDo you ever wish you could turn back time and move with me?â Jake questioned.
It was going to sound terrible, but Jake always hoped that it wouldnât work out with you and Angel. That you would wake up one day and realize that Angel was not the one for you. It was awful of him, he knew that, but you were his exception.Â
As cliche as it sounded, you were the only girl who didnât fall for his charm, for his infamous looks. The only reason he was able to score a date with you was due to his persistence, otherwise, his looks don't matter to you. His personality had to win you over.Â
You opened the pizza box, unsure of how to answer the question. There were times before you got with Angel that you regretted not moving with Jake, especially when Adelita came. You should have just moved with Jake, someone who loves you and took care of you. Someone you clicked with so well and made you smile during an awful day.Â
But at the same time he wasnât Angel. You couldnât do it. No matter how hard you tried. You almost did it, especially since Angel avoided you like the plague, but you couldnât move away. But there was a part of you that still believed it was a good idea. You could further your career in New York. When you were younger, it was your dream to move to New York. But when you actually came to New York with Jake to just test it out, you were miserable. You missed Coco, Gilly, Rafael and most of all, you missed Angel. When he found out you went to New York, he reached out to you with a simple message,
âCouldnât even say goodbye?â
And it pissed you off. Instead of texting him you flew out a week early and gave Angel a piece of your mind.
âY/N?â
You shook your head. âSorry! Zoned out, what was your question again?â
âDo you wish you could turn back time and move here?â
âNo, Iâm very happy where I am,â you confidently told Jake. This was what you always wanted, to be with Angel. You werenât missing out.
âI never truly understood why you were so willing to give up everything for Angel. He seemed like a good enough guy, but I always thought you would just,â Jake chuckled and shook his head. âI thought you would wake up and realize that you didnât belong in his world.â
âExcuse me?âÂ
âCome on, youâre an intelligent young woman who has an amazing career ahead of her. Being the girlfriend of an outlaw biker with a shady job isn't exactly ideal for you.â As nice as Jake was, you knew that he had some type of superiority complex when it came to Angel. For Jake, Angel was never going to be able to give you the life you deserved. Though, he obviously didnât understand what type of life you wanted, but Jake felt that on paper, you two were the perfect match. While he did bow out, you knew that Jake was bitter. It was the reason you two never really stayed in touch.Â
âI think you should go,â Jake wasnât worth your time. You completely lost your appetite after his words. After your interaction 2 months ago, you thought that maybe, just maybe, Jake moved on. But you assumed wrong.
âY/N, Iâm,âÂ
Before he could apologize, you cut him off. âDonât, you donât mean it, letâs not kid ourselves.â
Jake sighed and nodded his head. âIâm just looking out for you, Angel is eventually going to break your heart.â
âIâm good, I donât need anyone looking out for me.âÂ
Jake stood up and left your hotel room. You frowned, opening one of the Reddâs Apple Cider he brought for you and chugged it. Jake was wrong. You didnât care what Angel did for a living. You didnât care that he was part of a gang of some sorts. Angel was Angel and the MC was basically family to you. Everyone always had an opinion on things they donât know about. You werenât going to pretend the boys were saints, but you also werenât going to cast a bad light on them. They were humans, we all made mistakes.Â
You hated the fact that you started crying. Jakeâs words didnât matter to you, but you hated it when they put Angel down. Angel was an amazing guy regardless of his occupation or affiliation. This was the man that stayed up with you during your first heartbreak, running to the store to get you ice cream. You were 16 years old, the time of your life where puppy love existed and broke your heart so thoroughly.Â
âI canât believe Iâm crying,â you cried out as you sobbed harder. You felt like an idiot. You should have known that Nathan was going to break your heart. It was his literal MO, but like every other girl, you liked to believe that maybe, just maybe, you were the exception.
âBaby, itâs okay, I understand why you are,â Angel rubbed your back as you laid on his bed. His mother had just dropped off some cookies, giving you a kiss on the top of your head since it was the only thing she could kiss with Angel hugging you tightly.Â
âHow can I be so stupid?â You sounded dramatic, you knew it. You felt like the characters on a teen drama.Â
Angel chuckled. âBaby, youâre not stupid. Believe me, youâre far from that.âÂ
You remained quiet, wrapping your arms around Angelâs middle. He laid his cheek on top of your head as you listened to his heartbeat. You donât know what you would do without Angel. He was your best friend and you couldnât even imagine a life without him. Angel was the exception, every other man in this world was trash, but him.Â
âI want ice cream,â you stated, breaking the silence between you two.Â
Angel chuckled and kissed the top of your head. âWe donât have any, Iâll go to the corner store real quick.â
âWhat, no way, itâs dark outside.â
âAnything for you.â
If you were being honest, the people in society that were considered odd, outcasts, were the greatest people you knew. You may be biased but youâve been part of the so-called normal world and it was overrated.Â
Your phone rang and you immediately picked it up knowing it was Angel. You smiled when you saw Aresâ nose on the screen as Angel pretended to fight your puppy for screen time. Ares looked at Angel, giving him some evil type of eye while Angel playfully rubbed his face before moving the phone so you could only see him.Â
âHeâs such a hog,â Angel playfully rolled his eyes.
You laughed. âYouâre such a dork, how was your day?â
âGood, canât wait till you come back tomorrow.â Angel smiled. âWe ainât leaving our apartment for a least two days.â
You laughed once again, Jakeâs stupidity was out of your mind. âSounds like a promising weekend.âÂ
âHave you been crying?â Angel frowned, noticing your puffy eyes.Â
âI just miss you,â you feel your eyes welling up again.
âThatâs true, I miss you too baby, but I call bullshit.â You hated that Angel knew you so well. He was such a drag at times since you couldnât lie to him well. âWhatâs going on?â
âJake just dropped by.â
âWhat did that motherfucker say?â Angel could feel his blood boiling. Jake was so fucking lucky that he wasnât there with you, otherwise he would have beat the shit out of Jake.
âItâs nothing, donât worry about it.âÂ
âYouâre crying, itâs obviously something.â Angel was hoping that after numerous talks you two have shared, you wouldnât close him off. âTalk to me, mi dulce,â
âNothing, itâs stupid, I donât want us to waste our time on him.âÂ
âNice try, now spill it,â Angel moved away from Ares as the dog kept trying to see you. He walked in his room, closing the door behind him. âWhat did pretty boy say?â
âHe just asked me if I had a change of heart about moving to New York.âÂ
Angel sighed, shaking his head. That was a difficult period for him. When you two got into an argument regarding this possible move, Angel couldnât bring it to himself to speak to you. You fucked up, not him. Youâre the one who decided to leave, youâre the one who broke the promise.Â
You and Angel had promised one another that no matter what, you two would never leave one another. It seemed like such a juvenile promise, but after losing important people in your life, you and Angel leaned on one another. If you two could control it, you would never leave one another, that was the deal. And you broke it. Thatâs why Angel was so upset.Â
No matter the rule, the stipulation, the situation, you and Angel were the exceptions for one another.Â
Your commitment to one another ran deep. You two established a foundation for your friendship that eventually blossomed to a relationship. You knew it was somewhat cliche however, you figured thatâs why it worked. You two have always been committed to one another, your relationship just evolved into the next chapter in your lives.Â
âI still havenât forgiven you for that,â Angel was joking in some ways, it was his way to deal with pain. But he really hasnât.Â
The cut was deep.Â
âI know, Iâll spend the rest of my life making it up to you,â you gave him a small smile.
âSo what else did he say?âÂ
Your tears spilled then, remembering his words about Angel eventually breaking your heart. Youâre working on your insecurities and itâs not like you believed his words, but many people have expressed the same thing.Â
Angel was going to break your heart.Â
But you knew he wouldnât. You were confident he wouldnât.Â
He was the exception to all the men that have come and go in your life.Â
Angel Ignacio Reyes, Secretary of the Mayans Santo Padre Chapter, was the love of your life and he would always be there for you. No matter what anyone else in this world thought. They didnât know anything about you and Angel.Â
âBaby,â Angel grimaced, seeing the tears in your eyes.Â
âItâs stupid, I know I shouldnât cry about anything Jake said, but I hate it when people put you down.â You explained.
âFuck them, I donât give a fuck what they have to say.â Angel seethed. He was going to kill pretty boy. âWhat did he say Y/N?â He didnât care about his words, but it obviously upset you and that made him care.
âHe said that you were going to end up breaking my heart and we werenât compatible.â Saying out loud made you feel more of an idiot, but you couldnât help it.
Angel sighed, running his fingers through his short hair. This motherfucker was really trying his patience. Who the fuck did he think he was?
âDo you believe him?â
âOf course not,â
âThen whatâs the problem? People say things all the time. Heâs your ex-boyfriend, heâs obviously upset because of what happened. Who cares what he says? I love you and his issues are the least of my concerns.â Angel hated that Jake was trying to undermine your relationship, but he was glad you werenât falling for Jakeâs charm. Jake has always been on Angelâs shit list, but now heâs on a whole different level.
âI know, he just got to me. I hate it when people talk about you and the MC since they go with the status quo.âÂ
âBaby, not everyone likes us, you canât get offended about things you canât control. What matters is us, Jake is just pissed cause heâll never have you.â Angel was trying his best to help you feel better. He knew you worried about trivial things you couldnât control, but thatâs why he was here, to help you out. âI think you just miss me so much thatâs why youâre emotional.â
You laughed making Ange laugh as well. âI love you, I canât wait to see you tomorrow.â
âI love you to mi Dulce,â Angel walked out of his room and almost tripped over Ares. The dog glared at him and stood on his hind legs. Angel wrapped an arm around Ares, picking him up. âThis brat is out of control.â
You laughed again. âHe just misses me.â
âYou okay?â
âYes, I just needed to hear your voice, thank you for calling me.â
âAnything for you, sleep, Iâll see you tomorrow.â
You two said your good nights. You placed your phone down and opened another bottle. You were definitely thankful for Angel. As lovely as New York was, you couldnât wait to get home to Angel.
---------------------
âFuck,â you moaned out as Angel continuously pounded into you.
You got back to San Diego around 6 in the evening. After dinner, Angel took you home to his apartment and the next thing you knew, you were a moaning mess on the bed.
âBaby, fuck, youâre so wet.â Angel slid in and out of you easily, he fucking loved it. âI fucking missed this pussy.â
You just moaned, scratching Angelâs back.
He slowed down, straightening his back. Looking down at you, he watched as you bit your lips as he slowly slid out and slid back in at the same pace. You whimpered, begging for Angel to speed up.
âNope, youâre gonna take what I give you baby,â Angel bent down to take a nipple in his mouth, biting on it gently.Â
âAngel,â you whined.
âThatâs right, who does this pussy belong to?â
âYou,â breathlessly, you replied to Angel.Â
You can feel your orgasm building as Angel continued his torturous pace.Â
âAngel, please,â you begged, grabbing his arms with your hands, softly squeezing it.
âAnything for you,â he increased his speed, capturing your lips before he pulled back, pushing your legs back.Â
âIâm coming,â you moaned as Angel bent down to bite your neck, the spot he knew that always got you. âAngel!â You screamed out knowing his neighbors were definitely getting an earful of your screams.Â
You two have been at it for hours and youâre pretty sure this wouldnât be the last round.
Angel groaned as his thrust became shorter and finally, he released inside you. You love feeling his release, especially when he pulled out. Angel kissed you once again before he slowly pulled out, the friction causing you two to moan. He laid beside you, taking you into his arms. He kissed the top of your head as you wrap your arms around him.
âYouâre too good at this,âÂ
Angel chuckled. âItâs not that hard.â
âYouâd be surprised, none of the guys Iâve slept with has been this good,â you paused. âOr intense.â
âWell, Iâm in love with you, weâre not fucking. Weâre making love.â Angel was never into sappy shit, but it was true. Sex with you was just so much different. It sounded so fake, but it wasnât. Thatâs why he couldnât get enough of you. He tried to memorize every reaction you had, it was his favorite thing to do. Watching you come undone just further motivated him.
âYouâre so romantic.â
âTo you I am,â Angel ran his fingers up and down your side. âHas Jake tried reaching out to you?â He saw your phone lit up a few times, Jakeâs name popping up on the screen. He trusted you and he wasnât going to snoop, but he was still curious what the mother fucker wanted.
âYes,â you grabbed your phone before returning to your previous position on Angelâs chest. Handing your phone over to Angel, you changed your position slightly so you could see his reaction. âNothing too great.âÂ
Angel looked through the message and there were no replies from you. The messages were from Jake, apologizing and reasoning with you.Â
He placed your phone on the stand beside him.Â
âWhat you gonna do?â Angel questioned.
âNothing, Iâm done with him.â
âThatâs it querida? You donât want to put pretty boy in his place?â
Putting Jake in his place was low in your to do list. If anything, you didnât care much for Jake, and you havenât in so long. People like Jake, they wanted to apologize because they were notorious for being the âgood guyâ. Everyone had to love him. But at the end of the day, even the so-called good guys arenât that great. You werenât going to give Jake the time of day, just because he meant well doesnât mean it was going to be received well.Â
âI donât really care what happens to pretty boy,â you placed a kiss on his chest. âGot everything I want right here.â
You were always so good for Angelâs ego and self-esteem. You were his only exception, the person he would go through hell and back and even consider living the life he built so hard to have. The MC would always have a place in his heart, but at the end of the day, you were his heart.
Angel smiled down at you, kissing your forehead. âI love you.â
âI love you too.â
