#look we deal with him at work sometimes but he's fine

In honor of @littlepaws9's birthday, we will pretend the break-up never happened... this is very short and hopefully as fluffy as you like your BuckTommy ;)
............................................................................................................................
"I wanna take you out tomorrow," Buck breathes into Tommy's ear, half-hidden from the bedsheet.Â
The answer is a mere grunt, he takes it as approval.
"It's a nice restaurant," he continues to chatter, "a bit outside of town, not so fancy, pretty cozy, I think you'll like it."
Squinting, Tommy questions his pillow with a muffled, "Tomorrowâs New Yearâs?"
"I've made the reservation a couple of months ago."
This confession seems to crack Tommyâs eyes finally open. Heâs still wearing this adorable scrunched-up sleeping face, but Buck can tell something is working behind his brow. A couple of months ago, they almost broke up over a stupid argument, preceded by an evening at Miceli's. It was easy to guess that Buck â after their very hot reconciliation â had made a kind of vow for the future: never to go to that restaurant again, and to never leave anything to chance.Â
"Fine, but why are you telling me this at..." Tommy lifts his head briefly to look at the alarm clock on his nightstand, "six in the morning?"
"I've got a shift. And you live closer to Harbor than to the 118."
"Huh?"
"One of us has to get up early, sleepyhead," Buck says with a laugh, pressing a kiss on the fuzzy head sticking out of the sheets.
The restaurant really proved to be beautiful, far from all the chrome and glass that modern places in L.A. considered aesthetically pleasing. This special day seems to call for wine, so they settle for red. At the tables around them, only couples are to be seen. Buck finds Tommy to be unusually taciturn, and he starts to wonder why.Â
"You tired?" he asks, causing Tommy to look up in surprise from the salad heâs been pushing back and forth with his fork. "We can always have dessert at home, if you want."
He winks, and Tommy scrunches his face in his pretty little smile.
"I'd like that," he returns. "But that's not it."
Putting a hand on Buckâs, he softly explains, "New Yearâs Eve is always so⊠charged. Everybodyâs making vows and resolutions, and itâs become some kind of couple event, almost worse than Valentineâs." With a nod, he gestures to the guests around them.
"Too corny?" Buck offers.Â
"Hm, too many expectations," Tommy cautiously replies. "And... Sometimes you don't know how to fulfill them."
"Expectations," Buck echoes, pondering whatever this might mean. "Look, all I'm expecting is for you to sit there, enjoy your free meal and look at your handsome boyfriend."
"Oh, I can do that," Tommy says with a smirk, raising his glass.Â
"Totally cool if this isn't your holiday," Buck continues, a little more serious now. "Just wanna be with you, like... every day, you know?"
Tommy tilts his head and seems about to reply, but Buck quickly interrupts him.
"Don't freak out, because yeah, I do admit I'm a fan of holidays, any kind of them. And I⊠I brought you something. You can find that kitschy, be my guest to hide under the table, and I expect nothing in return, butâŠ"
Suddenly, thereâs a small box in his hand, and Tommyâs features slip.
"Evan," he breathes, a trail of disbelief in his voice. "We agreed on no presents."
"I said don't freak out! That was Christmas, by the way. And itâs not what it looks like."Â
With a sheepish smile, he opens the box. Inside lie two very discreet, very pretty silver ear studs in the shape of the letter E.Â
"Remember when I once asked you about your pierced ears? You said you got them in your youth but didnât dare wearing any earrings because of your career choices. And, wâŠwell. You're no longer in the closet. And I know that I'm not the reason for it, but... I'm the reason you admitted it to some of your old friends, and those are my friends too, and that's kind of a big deal somehow. Iâm sorry."
"What are you sorry for?"
"It's embarrassing, especially after youâve made it clear Christmas and New Yearâs arenât your ⊠favorites."
"Well," Tommy stretches, reaching for one of his pockets, pulling out quite a similar little box.Â
"Theyâre not," he admits. "Thereâs a reason I like to volunteer for shifts on those days. Until⊠well, until you, Evan. I know I kinda chickened out of Christmas, just didnât feel right to be with your family. You were so understanding, I felt bad. And it was obvious you had something planned for today. Itâs adorable when you try to keep a secret. This wasn't exactly what I was expecting... well, that's a conversation for another day. And even if I don't particularly like the day, that doesn't change my affection for you, Evan. I've spent the last few days thinking about how I could show it to you. Pondering what you would like. And, uh... great minds think alike, I guess?"
He flicks open the box to reveal a set of small, silver ear studs. They look like tiny Tâs.Â
"Cheesy, isn't it?" he says with a broad grin that can hardly hide the fact heâs about to burst out laughing.
"Pretty much," Evan laughs before blurting out, "I don't even have pierced ears, babe."
"I know a good tattoo artist."
"Oh, me too. You know what? We'll go there together. Ear piercings for me and a new tattoo for both of us."
"Bold, Evan. You better not get my name engraved, who knows if youâll still want me next year?"
"Don't worry," Buck replies with a smile. "You're a keep, no doubt about that."

Tim Drakeâs Coworkers (ft. The Fenton Family)
Itâs not that Tim doesnât like the Batfamily. He tolerates them just fine. Damian is great for sparring (if you like sparring with a tiny murder machine), and Jasonâs brand of dark humor isnât too bad once you get used to it. Dickâs a bit too much sometimes, but overall? Fine. Totally fine.
But the thing is⊠theyâre just his coworkers.
And it never really clicks for the Bats until Danny Phantom joins the Justice League and everything starts unraveling.
âââ
The revelation comes during a League meeting. Theyâre strategizing about some ghost-related chaos, and Danny floats into the Watchtower, bright and glowing.
âOh, hey, Tim,â Danny greets casually, giving him a little wave.
Tim doesnât even look up from his tablet. âSup.â
Superman looks between them, confused. ââŠyou two know each other?â
Danny grins. âyeah, heâs my brother.â
Dead silence.
âWHAT?!â Bruceâs bellow shakes the entire room.
Tim finally looks up, unfazed. âWhat? Did you think I just spawned into existence?â
âYou have a brother?!â Clark sputters.
âTwo siblings, actually,â Tim corrects, utterly nonchalant. âDannyâs the younger one. Jazz is the older one. Sheâs great. Super organized. Kept me alive in middle school.â
Bruceâs eye twitches. âWhyâwhy am I only learning this now?â
Tim shrugs. âIt didnât seem relevant.â
âRelevant?â Diana repeats, incredulous. âYouâre the brother of Danny Phantom and itâs not relevant?â
Danny, whoâs been munching on some ectoplasm candy, jumps in: âHonestly, Timâs always been kind of private about his personal life. We just figured it was his way of coping with the whole âraised-by-rich-neglectful-auntâ thing.â
âYeah, about that,â Tim interjects, glaring at Danny. âThanks so much for dumping me with Aunt Janet, by the way.â
Danny shrugs sheepishly. âMom and Dad panicked! They thought youâd get ghost-napped next!â
âUh, correction: Aunt Janet left me to raise myself, so that plan was awesome.â
Bruce, trying to keep up, interrupts: âHold on. Your parents left you with Janet Drake?â
âThey didnât know she sucked at raising kids,â Tim deadpans. âAnd to be fair, they did call. A lot. I just didnât pick up.â
Jason, who has been cackling this entire time, leans forward. âWait, wait, waitâso youâre telling me that the Replacementâs entire family is a bunch of ghost hunters?â
âYup.â Danny pops the âpâ with a grin.
âYouâre kidding me,â Steph says, borderline hysterical.
Tim sighs, clearly over it. âLook, itâs not a big deal. Jazz keeps the parents in check, Danny handles the ghost stuff, and I⊠stay out of the way. Itâs fine.â
âFINE?â Damian glares. âDrake, youâve been fraternizing with ghost hunters while working with a vigilante group, and you think thatâs fine?â
Tim raises an eyebrow. âDami, chill. Itâs not like it affects work. Youâre my coworkers. Theyâre my family. Separate categories.â
Cue collective Batfamily malfunction.
âââ
Later, Danny is chilling in the Batcave, feet kicked up on the Batcomputer, chatting with Alfred. The rest of the Bats are still spiraling.
âTim, weâve lived together for years!â Dick exclaims, sounding genuinely hurt. âHow are we only your coworkers?â
âYouâre not my family,â Tim explains, like itâs the most obvious thing in the world. âDanny and Jazz are my family. You guys are my teammates. Itâs different.â
Jason throws his head back, laughing. âOh my god, Replacement, youâre stone cold.â
âIâm not cold,â Tim argues. âI just donât think we need to make it more complicated than it is. We work together. Thatâs enough.â
Meanwhile, Danny is wiping tears of laughter off his face. âOh man. Jazz is gonna love this.â

Dc x Dp #46
"I'm transferring you all to another branch to focus on your teamwork." Batman announced to the Young Justice League out of nowhere.
The news surprised the whole group. They've been together for quite sometime and had gotten alone just fine. Sure, they had disagreements here and there, but that wasn't enough for them to need more training, was it?
"We've been officially working together for a long time. Why do we need teamwork training now?" Robin asked, being brave enough to talk to the well feared vigilante that many were fearful to speak against.
Batman said nothing as he scrolled through the tablet in hand, obviously searching for something.
"Because you still have problems with your teamwork. You need the help of another team your age to get a better view point of what you're doing wrong. And hopefully you'll be able to learn about the different type of enemies
"Wait, wait, wait! Our age? You mean there's another team that we didn't know about?" Kid Flash asked, the news obviously being a surprise to him.
This news was a surprise to everyone in the group. All of them thought that they were the only young heroes that worked under the Justice League.
Finding what he was looking for, Batman opened a file and the team looked at the large photo that appeared on the screen. The photo contained four teens, just around their age if not older or younger.
One was a black teen with a red beanie, and Robin was surprised to see the bulky tech in his hands that he was using. What kind of outdated tech was this team using?
Next to him was a goth looking girl with raven black hair wearing a black short with a black and green plaid skirt. Her face was concentrated into a stern glare that gave Wally the shivers. The gun that she held in her hand didn't help either.
There was another girl as well. Her black hair down and resting against her shoulders. Said shoulders and the rest of her body covered by a black and red suit with a hoverboard against her feet and another strange weapon in her hand. A gun maybe? Red Arrow was curious to see her aim when moving on that board.
And the last kid wasn't standing. He was floating. With snow white hair and green eyes that seemed to glow everytime they looked at the photo. He looked to be around the same age as the other three, but he wore a black jumpsuit with white boots, gloves, and belt. On his belt rested a thermos? Superboy didn't see how such a scrawny thing could be of any threat.
One thing was similar was that how all of the humans eyes seemed to glow. Almost as bright as the- metas'? Aliens? -did.
"These are the members of Young Justice: Dark. They have been under the Leagues employment for three months, but they've been working on their own for almost two years and managed to stop several world ending disasters dealing with the supernatural."
The statement from Batman shocked the team. Them? On their own for two years fighting against the supernatural? Surely he was joking?!
"But-how? We've never heard of them, and they were world ending, we should've known about it." Robin argued.
"Because they've never left the threats leave their town." Came Batmans clipped reply. "There have been a few close calls, but all of them have been handled. As for why the League wasn't aware, there was interference that stopped the League from knowing about Amity Park. This is the team that took our place."
This was the team? Two years unsupervised against supernatural threats that they didn't know about and they still remained uncovered? Just how strong was this team?
"I'm assigning your next mission to work under them. For the time being they will be your superiors and you will follow their instructions if you come into contact with any enemy. Do not go against their orders or else it will be dire. With this, you will learn about threats stronger than you have faced and better yourselves as a team. Do not mess this up."

You adjusted your coat, clutching your purse as you strolled back toward the Avengers compound after your date. Your head hung low from the frankly underwhelming night you shared with Ryan, a guy youâd met through a mutual friend.Â
Ryan was a librarian. He was perfectly fine, perfectly handsome, perfectly polite. But you werenât looking for perfect. You sighed.Â
He talked about his job, about how a group of school kids making noise had been annoying him. When he asked about yours, you shifted in your seat with unease. You canât really tell the whole truth. What would that even sound like?
Oh, I went on a mission last week and shot a guy. Don't worry, he was a bad guy.
You wouldâve sounded ridiculous.
In the end, Ryan was just another normal person. He couldnât keep up with you, with your life, being an avenger. With this line of work, you wondered if youâd ever find love.Â
You were halfway up the steps to the entrance when you saw him.
Bucky Barnes stood by the doors, leaning against the wall, arms crossed over his chest. His blue eyes locked on you as soon as you came into his view. The outdoor light cast long shadows across his face, strengthening the sharpness of his features.
Bucky watched you walked up the steps. He clenched his jaw, forcing down the aching swirl inside him. It was easier to push you away, to let the sharp edges of his words do the damage before you could get any closer, even if he could not deny how beautiful you were underneath the dark glow of the night sky. His gut twisted, knowing you put in all this effort for some half-decent guy who could never give you enough, not that you needed to put any effort at all. He shook his thoughts away, eyes narrowing.Â
Great, you thought. The last thing you needed tonight was to deal with his brooding attitude. You took a deep breath, preparing yourself for whatever sharp remark he was about to throw your way.
Bucky stepped closer, his chest only inches from yours now, and the proximity sent a jolt of heat through you. His gaze flickered down to your lips for the briefest second before he met your eyes again.
"Out late, arenât we?" His voice was low.
You rolled your eyes, brushing past him as you opened the door to the compound. "It's called having a life, Barnes. You should try it sometime."
He followed you inside, his boots heavy against the floor. "A life, huh?" He scoffed, his tone harsher than usual. âThatâs what you call having dinner with some guy who wonât last longer than a week?" His voice was low, almost a growl, but there was something else behind itâsomething you couldn't quite identify. His eyes didnât leave yours, and the air between you crackled with a tension you had always felt with him.Â
You swallowed hard. "Why do you care who I spend my nights with?" you replied, your voice shakier than you intended.Â
His jaw clenched. "Maybe I care because none of those guys know what you really need." His voice was gravelly, and the implication in his words made your stomach flip. For a second, you couldnât breathe.
You quickly brushed his words. "And you think you do?" you shot back, but your voice faltered.Â
Bucky left the question open, not knowing how to respond. Instead, he did what he always does best. He deflected. "You canât keep a boyfriend because youâre too brash. Too loud."
The words hit you like a punch to the gut. You swallowed hard, the pain twisting in your chest as his words echoed in your mind. He always had a way of cutting deep, but this was different. Calling out your coping mechanisms seemed too low, even for Bucky.
"Wow." Your voice wavered slightly, but you quickly steadied it, refusing to let him see just how much he affected you. "You really know how to hit where it hurts, donât you?"
Bucky didnât respond. For a second, you thought you saw something flicker in his eyesâregret, maybe. But he didnât apologise. Instead, he turned away, his metal arm flexing at his side.
"Just go to bed," he muttered, almost condescending except for the hint of softness in his voice. "I need you well rested for the mission tomorrow."
As much as you and Bucky outwardly despised each other, the two of you were surprisingly effective partners in the field. Again and again, you found yourselves paired together. You never complained, though. There was an undeniable intimacy in your partnership that you craved, even if Bucky hated your guts.
"Is this really about the mission?â Your anger bubbled to the surface.Â
His hand shot out suddenly, gripping your wristânot hard, but firm enough to stop you from moving too far past him. His metal fingers were cool against your skin, his blue eyes alight with frustration. "Itâs about you not taking things seriously.â He said, almost sneering. âInstead of preparing your gear, you're off with some random guy. Do you even care?"
Your heart pounded in your chest, and you felt the tears pricking at the corners of your eyes, but you wouldnât let them fall. Not in front of him.Â
"I care more than you think, Bucky," you said quietly, pulling your arm away from his grip. "But you donât get to talk to me like that. You donât know why I am the way I am."
Buckyâs expression softened slightly. He opened his mouth to say something, but then quickly snapped it shut, as if he didnât trust himself to speak. The truth was, heâd been watching you for months. Not just on missions, but in moments like these, when you thought you were alone. You wore your confidence like armour, but sometimes, when you let it slip, he caught glimpses of something deeper. Something that made him wonder if maybe, just maybe, you felt the same way he did, whatever that feeling was. Whatever the racing heart in his chest meant. Whatever the butterflies in his stomach meant.Â
But he couldnât let himself go there.Â
The silence between you was unbearable, and finally, you turned away.
"Letâs just get through tomorrow without killing each other, okay?" you muttered. Without waiting for his response, you walked away, leaving him standing alone..
Why did he always do this?Â
He didnât know half of what you carried. Didnât know what it was like to loseâto build your walls higher every time someone left, because that was the only way to survive.
Or maybe he knew too much of what it was like.
You spent your life keeping people at arm's length. Dates were fine. Fun. Superficial. They didn't ask for more than you were willing to give. You could smile, laugh, let your guard down just enough to feel normal, but never enough to let anyone in.Â
Buckyâhe was too close. He saw too much. He could cut through the walls with one sentence, and it scared you.
As you made your way back to your bedroom, part of you wonderedâwhat would happen if you let him in?
What a stupid thought.Â
â
The next morning, the air between you and Bucky was still cold, your argument from the night before hanging in the air like a hurricane. You were briefed on the mission, but you barely paid attention. Your mind was still reeling from the sting of Buckyâs words. And you hated that he had the power to make you feel this way.
In the quinjet, silence filled the space between you, making the air feel too thick and heavy to breathe. Bucky sat across from you, his gaze fixed on the floor, his hands resting on his knees. You stole a glance at him, noting the tension in his shoulders, the way his jaw clenched tight, and for a second, something flickered in his eyes as he glanced at you. Regret, maybe?
âLook," you muttered, breaking the silence. "About last nightâ"
âDonât," he cut in, his voice low but firm. "Letâs focus on the mission."
You swallowed, biting back whatever words had been forming. He didnât want to talk about it. Fine.
The knot in your chest tightened. You wanted to tell himâwanted to say something to bridge the gap between you, but the walls were still there, and neither of you was ready to break them down.
â
The mission was supposed to be simple. You and Bucky had done this a hundred timesâget in, gather intel, get out. He was the shadow, slipping in unnoticed, while you were the distraction, loud and violent, drawing the guardsâ fire away.Â
You took point, leading the guards away with your usual brashness. Something that Bucky criticized you for.
You could feel Buckyâs eyes on you, tracking your every movement. Most of the time, his gaze felt like scrutiny, like he was waiting for you to mess up. But today there was something else. Protectiveness, perhaps?
As you manoeuvred through the base, you split up. You were supposed to patrol the halls, distract any guards, draw fire from Bucky to you. Bucky was supposed to secure the intel. You stopped in the centre, where you were supposed to wait for communications right about now.Â
Where is he? you thought, scanning for Bucky, but he was nowhere to be seen. He was supposed to signal once heâd reached the server room. But the silence on the comms was making you nervous.
Your instincts kicked in, as you heard more guards coming from your left.Â
You cursed, ready for confrontation.
You felt exposed, vulnerable. Normally, you could feel his presence. But now, something was different. The usual synchrony between you two felt⊠off.
Suddenly, the footsteps halted as gunfire erupted in the distance, shattering the uneasy quiet. Your heart raced. That wasnât part of the plan. Bucky wasnât supposed to engage until he had the data. The sound of gunshots rang in your ears, echoing in the corridors of the enemy base.
âBarnes, what the hellâs going on?â you hissed into the comms, trying to keep your voice steady. No response.
Your breath hitched. Something was wrong. Your steps quickened, your pulse pounding in your ears. The sound of shouting and footsteps grew closer. Where the hell is he?
You ran towards where Bucky was supposed to be. Rounding a corner, suddenly a gunshot rang outâclose. Too close.
A sharp pain seared across your side as you dove for cover behind a stack of crates. You cursed under your breath, pressing your hand to the wound. Blood oozed through your fingers. The bullet had grazed you, which was survivable, but the sting was enough to remind you just how dangerous this was becoming.Â
You shot your attacker with your last bullet, bullseye on the center of their forehead. The body went stiff, still on the ground. Brutal. Clean. Necessary.
âWhere are you, Barnes?â you muttered, your breath coming in ragged bursts, but you were only met with static from the other line. You were supposed to be the distraction, but without his backup, you felt vulnerable in a way you hadnât felt in years.
Damn it, this isnât working. You threw away the comms and crushed it beneath your heel.
You heard the commotion getting closer and closer, and then suddenly the gunfire stopped. Maybe Bucky had been able to disarm the enemy and was making a run for it.Â
You glanced over the edge of a crate. Your eyes widened, spotting the sniper hidden on the corner, by an air vent, aiming on your head. Your heart pounded, knowing you donât have the energy to dodge another shot.Â
You took a deep breath, readying for impact.
Then, there was a flash of movementâBucky!
He appeared out of nowhere, barreling toward you just as the sniper lined up his next shot.
âMove!â he shouted, his voice brimming with panic.Â
Before you could react, his body slammed into yours, tackling you to the ground. The breath was knocked from your lungs as you hit the ground hard, his weight pinning you down.Â
Buckyâs chest pressed against your back, his breath heavy in your ear as he shielded you from the line of fire. His metal arm wrapped protectively around your waist, and despite the chaos, you couldnât ignore the heat of his body, the way it made your skin tingle. But the relief was short-lived.
The next sound you heard was a grunt of pain.
You twisted beneath him just in time to see Bucky stumble, his hand clutching his side. Blood. Too much blood. It soaked through his tactical suit, spreading rapidly as he slumped back, his face pale with pain.
âNo!â The word tore from your throat as you scrambled to your feet, gently laying him on the ground before he could fall. You grabbed his arm, trying to keep him upright, but he was heavy, his body sagging against yours.
âIâm fine,â he grunted, his voice strained, but the way he leaned on you told a different story.
You felt the adrenaline surge through your body, giving you the last boost of energy you needed. You grabbed Buckyâs rifle, blindly shooting at the direction of the sniper.Â
You werenât shooting clean shots anymore. You didnât care. You didnât stop until you saw the body fall on the floor.Â
You scrambled back to Bucky.Â
âThis wasnât part of the plan,â you snapped, your voice trembling with anger and fear as you pressed your hand to the wound in his side, trying to stop the bleeding. âWhy didnât you stay in position? You werenât supposed toââ
âTo what?â he rasped, wincing as he tried to move. âLet you die?â
âI had it under control!â you shot back, hough you knew it was a lie. You could feel the heat of his body against yours, but the closeness only fueled your anger. âIf you had just stayed where you wereââ
âYou were in the open. I had toââ Bucky interrupted, his voice sharper than before, his eyes dark with frustration. His hands tapped his pocket, making sure he had the intel you came here for.
âI was doing my job, Bucky!â you shouted, your grip tightening on his arm. The fear bubbling up in your chest was quickly being overtaken by anger, the unresolved tension from last nightâs fight bleeding into the moment. âBut youâdamn it, why do you always have to make everything harder than it is?!â
His eyes met yours, blazing with frustration. âIâm the one keeping you alive!â he growled, stepping closer despite the pain radiating from his wound. âYou never listenââ
âYou donât trust me!â you accused him, your voice shaking when you noticed the bleeding wasnât slowing. Did it hit an artery? âand now youâre hurt because you had to play the hero!â
His jaw clenched, his hand gripping your arm tightly as he struggled to stay upright. âI donâtââ He stopped, his voice catching as the weight of your words sank in. His eyes flickered with something that made your heart twist. âI donât want to lose you.â
The confession was so quiet, so raw, that it hit you harder than any bullet could have.Â
Your anger faltered, the heat of the moment cooling as you stared at him, your breath catching in your throat. âBuckyâŠâ you started, but the words died on your lips.
Soon, you heard hostile footsteps growing louder in the distance. You didnât have time for this. Not now.
You tore your gaze from his, focusing on the immediate task at handâgetting him out of here.Â
You supported Bucky as best you could, half-dragging him through the enemy base toward the extraction point. His body was heavy against yours, his breaths shallow, but he still had enough strength to keep his arm around you, guiding you through the chaos.
âStay with me, Barnes,â you muttered, your voice tight with worry as you half-ran, half-stumbled through the corridors.
Bucky groaned in response, his grip on you tightening, his weight sagging against your side. âAre you even⊠strong enough to carry me?â he gritted out, his voice laced with pain. There was a flicker of his usual sarcasm there, a sign he was still fighting.
You shot him a glare, even as panic clawed at your chest. There was a hint of charm in his voice this time, and you couldnât help but smile a little. âDonât make me regret saving your ass.â
His weight pressed heavily on your shoulders, and his blood soaked into your gear, but you didnât stop. You couldnât stop. Every time his breathing hitched, you pushed yourself harder, refusing to let the fear of losing him take over.
â
By the time you got him back to the quinjet, Bucky was barely conscious. You worked frantically to stabilise him, your hands shaking as you hooked him up to an IV and bandaged the wound as best as you could with the limited supplies on hand.
When you finally returned to the Avengers compound, they wheeled him away to the med bay, and despite the doctorsâ reassurances that heâd pull through, you refused to leave his side.Â
For the rest of the night, you stayed by his bedside.Â
Sam dropped by a couple of times, bringing you water and food you couldnât bring yourself to touch. On his third visit, he lingered, watching you with a knowing expression. Bucky was still unconscious, the steady rhythm of the EKG was the only sound in the room as you stared at him. Your hands clutched the arms of your chair as if holding onto something solid would stop your thoughts from spiraling.
âYouâve been here a while,â Sam said softly, not wanting to disturb the stillness in the room. âYou should eat something.â
He pointed at the bottle and sandwich he had brought a couple of hours ago. You nodded faintly, but your eyes didnât leave Bucky. âIâm not hungry.â
Sam sat in the chair next to you, his gaze flicking between you and Bucky. He leaned forward, his elbows resting on his knees.
"So..." he started, drawing out the word like he was testing the waters, "you finally decide to stop dancing around each other or what?"
You shot him a glare, but it lacked the amusement you usually reserved for his teasing. "Sam, not now."
"Hey, I'm just saying," Sam replied, holding his hands up in defence. "It's been months of this weird tension, and now you're sitting here like you're at the end of some romantic drama. It's about time you said something."
âCan we not do this now?" You repeated, snapping this time, though you did not mean to.Â
âHeâs gonna be fine,â Sam reassured you quietly, now aware of your agitation, âYou donât need to sit here all night worrying.â
âIâm notâŠâ you trailed off, realising how defensive you were being. With a sigh, you slumped back on your chair. âI⊠I shouldâve seen the sniper sooner.â
Sam chuckled softly, shaking his head. âYou know Bucky. He wasnât about to let you take that hit, no matter what.â
You glanced at Bucky, watching the slow rise and fall of his chest. You lowered your voice, scared that he would somehow hear you. âI donât understand why heâs always like this. One minute heâs insulting me, and the next, heâs throwing himself in front of bullets for me.â
Sam sighed, leaning back in his chair. âYou matter more to him than you think.â
You scoffed quietly, not quite believing him. âHe sure has a funny way of showing it.â
âListen,â Sam said, his tone soft but firm. âBucky⊠heâs complicated. He doesnât exactly wear his heart on his sleeve. But the fact that youâre sitting here, all torn up over him? Makes me think his feelings arenât one-sided.â
You looked over at Sam with visceral scepticism in your eyes.Â
Sam leaned forward again, his expression serious now. âIâve seen the way he looks at you when he thinks no oneâs watching. Hell, he gets jealous of the guys you go out with.â
You swallowed hard, feeling the weight of Samâs words sink in. The argument with Bucky from the previous night echoed in your mindâhis harsh words, the way heâd cut into you so deeply, as if trying to push you away. Was that really how his jealousy manifested?Â
Then there was today, how heâd risked his life without hesitation to save you.
âHe nearly died today,â you whispered, your voice catching in your throat. âBecause of me.â
âHe didnât do it because he had to.â Sam shook his head. âHe did it because it was you.â
You sat in silence for a moment, the weight of Samâs words settling in your chest. You had always felt the tension between you and Bucky, the unspoken something that simmered beneath the surface, but you had never let yourself fully confront it. Maybe because it was too scary to admit. Maybe because you feared that caring about someone like Bucky Barnes carried more risk than you were willing to take.
You blinked back the tears that pricked at the corners of your eyes. âI donât know what to do...â with all this information you had just dumped on me.Â
Sam smiled faintly, standing up and resting a hand on your shoulder. âJust be here when he wakes up.â
You watched as Sam walked out, leaving you alone with Bucky again. You let your eyes fall back to his sleeping form, his face still pale but peaceful. You reached out, hesitating for just a moment, before gently brushing a lock of hair away from his forehead.
â
Hours had passed before Bucky finally stirred. The room was heavy with the weight of everything that had happened, thick with the scent of blood and sweat. You sat beside him, your body drained, shoulders hunched over. Your mind stayed alertâunable to tear your focus from him for even a second.Â
âBucky?â Your voice was hoarse, cracking under the pressure of everything you had witnessed, everything you had felt.Â
His eyelids fluttered as if fighting to lift a weight the weight of the world. For a long, quiet moment, he just stared at you, eyes cloudy and disoriented. âYouâre still here,â he mumbled, his voice fragile.
âOf course, Iâm still here,â you shot back, the sharpness in your tone betraying the tenderness that hid behind it. Your emotions simmered beneath the surface, threatening to overflow. His muscles tensed as he attempted to sit up, but a grimace of pain shot across his face, stopping him short. âYou shouldâve let me handle it,â he muttered through clenched teeth, frustration leaking into his voice. Not because he had been shot, but because it broke his heart seeing you here. You looked so weak and sleep deprived. You looked so tired, your wounds untended.
The anger that had been quietly burning inside you flared. You rose to your feet, the chair scraping the floor in the silence. Your conversation with Sam swam in the back of your mind, but old habits die hard. âHandle what, Bucky? Getting shot?âÂ
His gaze snapped to yours, the weariness in his eyes replaced with a flash of cold steel. âWhy does it matter to you if I live or die?â His voice cut through the room, louder now, tinged with a bitterness.Â
The question hit you like a blow, freezing you in place. Your heart pounded violently against your ribs, the truth clawing at your throat. Every wall youâd carefully constructed around yourself, every defence you had in place, crumbled in an instant. Before you could stop yourself, the words you had fought so hard to keep buried tore free.
âBecause I fucking care about you!â you shouted, your voice breaking. âI care about you so much that I have to pretend I donât just to keep myself sane! Is that what you wanted to hear?â
The air between you felt electric. Buckyâs eyes widened, the force of your confession hanging in the space between you, churning like a wave ready to break. He didnât move, didnât speak at first, just stared at you as if seeing something he couldnât comprehend.
Then, after a beat that seemed to stretch into eternity, his voice came, a low, gravelly whisper that was almost lost in the silence. âYou think I donât feel the same?â His words trembled with a vulnerability youâd never heard from him before.
Your breath caught, and your body stilled. Maybe Sam was right, the realisation dawned on you.
His voice was cracking under the strain of emotions heâd long suppressed, grunting as he sat up. âI push you away because itâs easier than admitting how much Iââ His jaw clenched, his hands balled into fists as he struggled to say what heâd buried for so long. âIf I let myself feel it... if I let myself get close to you... Iâll lose you. And I canâtââ His voice faltered, breaking. âI canât lose you.â
Your heart wrenched at his words, at the fear so raw in his voice. Slowly, you took a step toward him, your legs trembling beneath you. The distance between the two of you had never felt so vast, even though it was only a few feet. âBuckyâŠâ The anger, the frustrationâit had drained away. Your voice was softer now than it has ever been with him, gentle. You sat on the edge of the bed, facing him.
He looked up at you, and in his eyes, you saw everything you had ever felt mirrored back at youâthe fear, the longing, the unspoken love that had always been there but never acknowledged.Â
Your breath hitched in your throat as you finally let the walls fall completely.Â
âItâs easier than admitting how much Iââ Bucky tried again, but couldnât finish. The words werenât enough.Â
You closed the distance between you in a heartbeat, your hands reaching for him, pulling him into you, and your lips crashed against his with a force that felt like it could shatter the walls around you.Â
The kiss was desperate, letting go of everything you had kept at bay for so long. It was raw, unfiltered. It was an outpouring of all the feelings you had tried so hard to ignore. There was nothing but you and him, the world outside of this fading away into nothingness.
When you finally broke apart, both of you were breathless, chests rising and falling in sync, your foreheads pressed together as if you were trying to ground yourselves. The gravity of what had been revealed was too much for you to process.
For a long moment, neither of you spoke. The silence was thick, but it wasnât uncomfortable.Â
"What is this?" you whispered, your voice barely audible. âWhat are we?â
Bucky's breath was shaky, his forehead still resting against yours as he struggled to find the right words. His hands hovered at your waist, as if he wasnât sure whether to hold you tighter or let you go. The vulnerability in his eyes, raw and unguarded, mirrored yours.
âI donât know,â he whispered, his voice rough and hoarse, barely audible. âBut I canât keep pretending like this doesnât mean something.â His eyes flicked up to meet yours, searching your face as if trying to decipher your feelings, afraid of what he might find there. âYou⊠you matter to me. More than anything or anyone.â
The honesty in his voice sent a shiver down your spine, and you could feel your heart pounding in your chest, each beat echoing in your ribcage. You didnât know how to respondâyour thoughts in a tangled mess.Â
âBuckyâŠâ You started, unsure of where to begin, but the words just didnât come. You reached up, cupping his face gently with your hand, brushing your thumb across the stubble on his cheek. His eyes fluttered closed at your touch, a shaky exhale escaping his lips.
âI donât want to mess this up,â he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper, as if admitting it out loud made it more real. âIâve lost so much. Iâm scaredââ He broke off.
âYouâre not going to lose me,â you whispered, the words firm, even though fear still lingered in the back of your mind. âWeâll figure this out. Together.â
For a moment, the world seemed to stand still as the weight of your words settled. Bucky stared at you, pressing his forehead against yours once more, the tension in his body easing ever so slightly.
âTogether,â he repeated softly.
The room was quiet again, the steady beep of the heart monitor the only sound that broke the silence. You sat there, holding each other in the stillness.
And maybe, someday soon, youâd have the courage to say what you both had wanted to say:
I love you.

DPXDC prompt: Dead on main. No trick only treat.
~~ĐĄhildhood friends and deals~~
The Justice League has to summon a ghost from another dimension to address the threat. They donât know what price the Ghost King will take but thereâs little time to bargain. Another spirit threatening them has already seized all the computers on their base. John doesnât know what else to offer. A summoned ghost starts to look bored. Gold, jewelry? A favor from a member of the League? Like the Ruler of All Dead needs it. No one dares to make another offer, and the King is in no hurry to set out his demands. Maybe try to pull off a soul sale scam?
Suddenly, Red Hood breaks into the hall, walks up to Phantom and shakes his shoulder vigorously. Red Hood: You, get Technus out of here right now. I need access to the files and fast. Phantom: Thatâs rude, dude. Where did you grow up? in the cave? No "hello, no how are you, Danny", really? Red Hood: Iâll pay the usual price. Phantom: Deal.
What is the price? John sees Batman and gets in his way. The usual price, his guy said. Means Jay was already out of the deal alive and well. This hyperprotective bat would only piss off the ruler if he interfered.
The King quickly deals with his subordinate using a thermos and remains to watch working Hood. Red Hood: What do you want? Iâm busy. Danny: You and I have a contract~ Red Hood: All right, all right. Jay throws M&Ms right in the face of the ghost. But king doesnât look angry. He opens the package and starts sorting the candies by color. Phantom quickly eats up all the green ones and passes the red ones to Hood. Jason takes them without any questions.
Strange. John has never seen a summoned creature share its reward with a human. And the son of a bat looks too comfortable with it. Wait, since when do super-powered beings think that candy is a decent wage?John makes one of the most likely deductions using his experience. Constantine: Batsy, how long has your son been sleeping with the King of Ghosts? Batman: HeâŠwhat?!
~~~~~~~
Dick *knocking at the door*: Little Wing, you hate ectoplasm and everything what is neon green, so why? Heâs dangerous! Jason who turned on the music to not listen to his crazy family: ~Heâs poison but tasty~
Dick: NoOOoo
~~~~~~
Jason: And now everyone thinks that I sold my virginity to you for a bargain or something, because interdimensional creatures like you arenât supposed to help for nothing. Like youâre playing favorites. Iâm gonna fucking kill John. Danny: Well, I wouldnât say no to that. Jason: What? Danny: I mean, to k-kill John, yeah. How dare he.. Jason: Omg, youâre still so terrible liar, Fenton.
Danny: Sorry :(
Jason: No. Say it again.
~~~~Twelve years ago~~~~ Maddie wasnât thrilled to learn that Danny was trying to make friends with Toddâs son. Their neighbor was terrible. And his son was definitely a street rat and probably a juvenile delinquent. Maddie: Danny, honey, thereâs got to be a reason this boy is talking to you. Even kids from the crime alley are always looking for a bargain they can make or a fool they can fool. Danny: But Jason is so cool! He knows so much about books and alleys and.. Maddie: But you donât want to be a fool, do you? Danny: Okay, Mom, I get it.
So, if Danny wants a cool friend, heâs got to offer a bargain.
He didnât have a lot of pocket money for every month but Jason needed it more anyway. And his lunch that Jack was picking for him was big enough for two and only bitten on Tuesdays. Nice. Jason: Do I understand correctly? You will pay me and give me food, and I, what? Protect you from bullies? Danny: No! Iâm not weak, I donât need to be protected. Just..maybe we could sit together at lunch and walk each other home sometimes? Jason: Nay Danny: But why? You want something else? Jason: Moneyâs fine but your homemade food isâŠstrange. Danny: I can bring sweets if you want. Jason: Deal. 3 pop tarts for a joint lunch, a party size bag of M&Ms if you waste my time out of school.
~~~~
Sometimes they share sweets when they hang out but more often Jayson takes them home to save in case his parents have money problems. Sweets have a long shelf life stored and he may not be afraid to poison himself. Over time, candy becomes their currency and a secret language for all occasions. Need help without unnecessary questions? M&Ms. Problems with learning? Skittles. The question is about family? Snickers. There will be a serious conversation? Pop Tarts.
Jason: One snickers and a pack of gum. Danny: Yeah, Jason? What do you want? Jason: My mom wants to meet my friend. Come to lunch on Sunday. Danny: Okay, you managed to pay for my expensive services. Jason:âŠand you just lost the gum from the deal.
~~~~~~
Jason threw a package at Danny: Three pop tarts. We need to talk. Danny: All right? Jason: Why are you avoiding me all week?! Danny: Well, itâs just..youâre Wayne now. Jason. Still Todd. And what about that? Danny: You can hang out with the cooler guys now, I didnât want to embarrass you. Jason: Bullshit! Iâm still the street rat, and youâre trying to avoid our contract. me. And I donât even need money from you anymore. What the hell? I thought you are my friend. Danny: And I am!
~~~~~~
Robin: Whatâs a schoolboy doing in an alley at night? Danny: Um, IâŠnothing? Donât tell my parents, Mr. Robin sir. Robin: It will cost you so many Chunky Bars, you have no idea. Danny:...Jason? Jason: N-no. Danny: Damn yes. What are you doing in green shorts on the street at night?! Jason: Cosplay. Danny: Oh yeah? Then Iâm just your hallucination. Donât hesitate to ghost me. Iâm going home, Disgrace In Pixie Boots, bye. Jason: fu%&c$#u

I need more baby daddy Jason. Maybe sitting at the park watching him with ur kids and hearing the other moms ogling over him
yall dangerously feeding my brain rot and it's giving me a baby fever i do not wish to feed !!!!!!!!!!! but whoever says baby daddy jason you have my heart rn bc i adore that man!!!!!!!!!!!
by the end of the week it was already time for your kids to go out and have a pretty day at the park, jason had been really busy lately so you took the stroller and placed your babygirl on it before calling your boy, living copy of jason when he was a kid and you couldn't want it any other way because both of your babies had those pretty emerald eyes you so adored.
the way to the park was easy, those two kids had a way to be pretty little angels when it came to go out to the park and you loved that because jason would usually catch up with you sometimes when the work was too much and today was one of those days. your little boy was six and your little girl four, which made it a bit hard to have him playing around and keeping an eye on your babygirl but as soon as jason joined you it was time for the girl to also leave your arms.
jason has been an amazing dad, always making sure his kids and girl were just fine, that they had everything they could ever need and want and it was easy to see in the way the little girl giggles loudly when he sweeps her out of your arms and walks to the playground while you sit, keeping an eye on your son and it's easy to hear the small group of moms muttering and giggling close to where you're sitting.
"do you think he's single? maybe divorced... he just came and picked up the girl from her arms" one of the women says and you roll your eyes because you know how damn well jason looks and how easy it is for him to trigger a baby fever in anyone but the small pang of possessiveness and jealousy that stirs in your chest is there.
"he didn't kissed her, i bet she is the kids' mom but they're not together... i should try and get his number," oh, over your damn dead body anyone would even dare to try and getting jason's number but you know better so you sit, looking at your family with a fond smile because now your two kids are held by jason.
you look at him and you can tell he's been working out more recently because he seems fitter, a little less of that dad body he had gotten since your second child was born and you loved how he looked, broad and muscly but there was a little tummy that only made you drool even more for the father of your kids.
you had to endure the comments and ogling from that group of moms for at least half an hour until you decided you had enough. walking over the place where jason was playing with the kids you stood close, looking at him with a smile when he lifted his head to glance at you and the glint on his eyes made you heart flutter, he picked up the kids on his arms and strode towards you with the widest smile ever amd without saying anything else he leaned in to press a tender kiss on your lips.
"hey there, ma," he whispered still close to your face "i missed you..." the words never fail to make your whole body shudder as you stand in front of the love of your life because that's what jason was, flaws and everything he was everything you could ever want.
"missed you too, jaybird... mind if we take the kids for ice cream?" you ask with a soft tone and it's easy for him to notice what's going on when you don't even pull away but stand even closer while looking up at him like a lovestruck teen again.
that's when jason gently places your girl in the stroller and wraps his free arm around your waist before he peppers a few kisses on your neck earning a chuckle from you and a soft 'yuck' from your boy's lips.
"daddy! stop kissing mommy! let's go for ice cream" and the childish protest makes jason smirk, knowing now he had yet to deal with a whole bunch of spoiled babies instead of just you but he wouldn't have it any other way and like that, with his arm still around your waist jason makes the way to get ice cream and you can satisfiedly feel the disappointment in the group of moms that were shamelessly planing to hit on jason.

Catnap + Dogday x Reader ( Part 2 )
<<< Part 1 , Part 3 >>>
Relationship: Fluff
Character focused: Dogday, Fem! Reader
Plot : You're giving Dogday a groom after he got himself covered in mud.
A/n : I will try to include the other Smiling Critters in here, they deserve love too.
A month has passed and things went on normally with your life. All the Smiling Critters get a minor check up everyday either by you or other coworkers.
These mascots work with children 24/7, they often are climbed on, tugged around or have paints/food stuck on their fur.
"I guess that's all of it"
"Oooh! My mane looks even prettier and shiny than before!"
You just finished cleaning up Craftycorn from all the glitters and paint off her white coat and cyan hair. Which took you half an hour to clean.
You put on a pink bow on her braided mane so she looks cuter.
"I really love how you do my mane! You know, we should do this more often! You're so creative, just like ME!"
" *chuckles* I'm glad that you like it, Craftycorn but I am NOT that creative as you are"
You dismiss the unicorn and give a handful of candy for her to enjoy. You call in the other mascot and Dogday pops his head in.
The dog is covered in mud from head to toe.
"Now, what did you get yourself into this time, Dogday?"
It was the third time this week.
Dogday only looks away, both hands on his back as he kicks his feet.
"KickinChicken and I got carried away while playing football, sorry..." /he lied.
You quirk an eyebrow, you know Dogday is really bad at lying. There are no muds at the football field since the field has fake grass carpet.
You wonder where he got all the mud from....oh well.
To Dogday, he likes being around you and wants to see you everyday but the other staff members didn't let him. Not even for a bit.
So the only way for the smiling critters to see you was to getting themselves dirty, either by accident or on purpose.
For Dogday, he did it on purpose so he could see you.
You usher the mascot on to the large bathtub so you could wash him up. You run the warm water over his body and rinsing the mud from his fur.
You know that they can clean themselves up but they seem to prefer having you to clean them.
It's a lot of work to clean a two story high mascot but it's fun.
You and the smiling critters would have a conversation, sometimes the smiling critters would tell them about their days.
Like a child telling their parents what they do at school.
"How's your day at the play care today?"
"It's really fun! We do a lot of things!"
"Oh, really? Tell me all about it. I'm curious"
"We play tag, we play hide n seek, we play red light green light with everyone! It was fun!"
"Did you have fun playing football with KickinChicken?"
"Oh, yes I did! The football was fun but what's even more fun is when you play in the mud!"
"Oh, really? KickinChicken just came a few hours ago and he told me he had fun playing skateboard"
"Iâ"
"Ha! Gotcha!"
You smirk as Dogday hangs his head down slightly. You scrub off the dirt from his ear and tell him that it's fine if he wants to see you.
Just don't get himself dirty all the time.
"The other staffs doesn't let me see you..."
"And why is that?"
"They said you stole their work...."
"....."
Recently your coworker has been glaring behind your back, gossiping and telling you to quit your job. Saying you were proud of your work which you never at all.
It is not entirely your fault that the mascots prefer you over them.
You knew how these mascots were treated before. It was during your interview at the playcare and your manager gave you a tour around the place.
You witnessed how the maintenance workers strapped these mascots in a tiny space and treated them like a wild animal.
"It is our fault wasn't it?"
"No, it's not. I'll deal with that matter myself and it is not yours to worry, alright"
You gave the canine mascot an assuring pat on the head which he leans into and his tail wagging behind him. You continue with your work and dry him in the blower machine and then you begin to groom his fur.
You notice that his fur had gotten longer by the day, so you decide to give him a little trim.
You hold his large paw, combing out the matted fur and snip some of them so it looks neat.
You did the same thing with his ears and chests.
Dogday watches you do you work, out of all staffs in this place. You are the nicest and the most gentle out of all staffs. You never strap them down or keep them in a small cage.
You treat them like a real person.
Like they used to be.
Dogday wants more from you, he wants to feel loved by someone. Someone that cares for him and everyone's well being unlike those scientists....
You care for him, so he will do the same to you.
You are his angel, after all....
"Alright, everything's done!"
You fix his collar and give his pendant a little shine. You decide to wrap a red scarf around his neck to compliment his orange colour.
"Is this for me, angel?"
"Yeah, it suits you well"
Dogday brings you into a tight hug, with his tail wagging aggressively behind his back. It seems the canine couldn't contain his excitement.
I mean, who doesn't like gifts? Especially from someone you like!
"Thank you! I will cherish it, always!"
"You're welcome, bud"
A/n : Since the first chapter received a good amount of views, here is the second chapter for all of you, sweeties!
I will assume that Dogday is the oldest out of all Smiling Critters, maybe around 13-15. We don't have a clue who Dogday really is but I decided to make him one of the older orphans.
Also, all the Smiling Critters in my stories share sibling relationships! and the reader is their oldest sibling or maybe parent figure! âșïž

You've now filled my head with nothing but Alastor and Lucifer brainrot. Any other sharing thoughts you have for them? (I cannot stop thinking about them, I quite literally thought about them sharing me during my entire 8hr retail shift yesterday)
alastor and lucifer sharing you pt 3!
pt1, pt2
this was highly requested, thank you all for the love <3 im tagging anyone who asked/was fine with it last time but now you can fill out this taglist form to ensure you're tagged for future posts!
tags: @lu-ferri12 @my-anime-garden @princessdreamss @polytheatrix @reaper-of-light-12 @ambi-squirrelly @hazelfoureyes @meggletoomanyfandoms @afernandez21
cw: angst ig?? idk reader is upset cause they keep fighting, general relationship issues for a moment, smut, reader gets eaten out, there's some light praise and condescension i think, alastor has a master kink, alastor discovers he LOVES eating pussy, there's like a weird sexual tension between alastor and lucifer for the majority of this if you squint, the ending is VERY suggestive
other: not 100% happy with formatting on this but i wrote majority of it on a 6 hour flight so like. you win some you lose some. not proofread that well, i kind of ramble at times too but it's fine. 2.1k word count and half of it is formatted in a headcanon cuase, again, lazy 6 hour writing. i also don't use the bolding and coloring that much cause it'd be a lot of work.
left the ending a little open, will probably do a poll tomorrow on if people want me to take this that direction.
â okay so sex aside i would think outwardly everyone knows you're in a relationship with lucifer at the very least
â but it's kept lowkey with the other part of the relationship
â which both are fine with btw
â lucifer loves pda so he's happy, alastor isn't a fan so it's whatever
â the public part works out because alastor would genuinely be worried about someone trying to use you to get to him
â it's bad enough that it's known the king of hell has a new partner, but nobody knowing that if they fuck with you they're fucking with the king of hell AND the radio demon is a silent advantage
â if anyone knows, it's charlie. but only to the extent of like the fact it's a hinge relationship, everything else she doesn't know and honestly doesn't need to know
â she's just happy her dad seems happy and is getting along better with alastor
â i think alastor is the kind to really start caring during the relationship vs. lucifer caring about you deeply before
â so occasionally alastor will pull you aside, or if no one is watching will just press a quick kiss on your forehead.
â meanwhile lucifer is always making it known he's in love with you
â arm around your shoulder, holding your hand, everything
â again, alastor doesn't really mind unless lucifer decides to be an ass abt it
â look they still compete with each other sometimes they can't help it
â then it becomes a game of how much the other can get away with before you either get upset or it's too telling
â that's the other thing is like, the competing gets really fucking annoying to you
â we saw them in hells greatest dad it wasn't a want to be a better dad it's just wanting to out do the other
â and when it transfers to your relationship it gets agitating fast
moving on
â relationship side alastor isn't as involved with that
â but if either of them did something that upset you or like there was a lovers quarrel between you and either side it's a big deal to them
â especially if you're only upset with one half of the hinge
â cause like, sure, they could compete with each other and purposefully drive you apart
â but tbh.. both of them lowkey like this arrangement much more than they thought they would
â so they end up talking to each other about it and figuring out what to do
â same if you're upset with both
â not that you're upset often it's just that when you are it's usually cause they crossed a line in their little competition
â and they hate making their girl feel like a prize to be won :(
â whatever their solution is, they do it together.
â show you they can get along, that they both care about you enough
â you're in your room, a bit of a blow up happened earlier after they got into one of their arguments
â it's not that you genuinely think theyre using you to get to the other but sometimes with the way they act it's easy to doubt
â anyways, they both come in, it's late
â i cry when im frustrated/upset and i think it's a pretty normal reaction, so let's just say you're crying a little
â they're both immediately at your side, apologizing profusely
â you've never cried like this before
â it scares them. alot.
â for once there's absolutely no competition, the only worry is making you feel better.
â both sitting next to you on the couch, lucifer murmuring how much he loves you, and how he knows how much alastor cares for you
â i hate the whole "alastor doesn't understand emotions" thing because he does. he has to, he knows how to read people well.
â it's just he hasn't ever comforted someone
â he doesn't know what to do when someone he cares about is upset
â so he's glad lucifer is here, as alastor just sits at your side nodding along and gently rubbing your back
â alastor only tunes back in when lucifer offers to give some space for the night, and a little murmur from you agrees but asks they both come to bed that night
â given its usually only lucifer who actually sleeps in the same bed as you alastor is surprised
â but lucifer is beckoning him out for some space.
"cmon, we'll be back in an hour yeah?" he chimes from the door, and with a squeeze of your shoulder alastor is out of the door, but he opts to walk along with lucifer. "we gotta do better" lucifer sighs as he walks, not looking over at alastor. he's not accusing alastor, he seems equally disappointed in both of them.
"for her?" alastor adds, and lucifer gives a hum of agreement. "this while ordeal has been quite... stressful as of late, no?" alastor adds, "to our own faults, yes" lucifer murmurs, giving a sigh. alastor nods, and the two men walk in silence for some time, ending up in the parlor, husk far since gone to bed. "want anything?" lucifer pulls alastor back to reality once again, he's standing behind the bar while alastor had been staring off, his mind running with thoughtd of god knows what.
"whiskey, my friend?" alastor suggests, and giving it a considerate thought lucifer pours two glasses. the silence falls over them again, just the sound of the clink of their glasses on the counter.
"so tell me, how do you do it when you pleasure her?" alastor breaks the silence, lucifers eyes dart up to him. thinking for a moment before replying "i don't really think tonight is the time for thatâ" lucifer says, but in a gentle tone.
"no no, in the morning." alastor says, staring down at his glass. "you two indulge often in the morning, correct?" alastor says, now his eyes uncomfortably on lucifer. Watching as the other man almost pales a little, swallowing thickly.
lucifer immediately falters, giving a sigh. "look it's notâ iâ that's not her faultâ" lucifer immediately starts, assuming this is a confrontation. his eyebrows raise as alastor shakes his head. "oh please, if i had problem with it i would have done something" he says, a static crackle echoing through the room. "no, i want to know how you do it when you... when it's just about her. how can i do the same?" alastor asks, and this is even more surprising to lucifer than this whole fucking idea in the first place.
â so lucifer of course explains some stuff to him, of course it's hard because unless he's done it before it's hard to articulate some of his "moves"
â i mean lucifer can hardly resist going down on you everytime, he's definitely experienced but it's hard to transfer that knowledge at times
â but he's impressed alastor even asked
â so when they return to your room, they're a lot more calmer with each other than before.
â that night changed a lot between them tbh
â it's slightly awkward for both of them when everyone gets settled in the bed
â you're on your back, lucifer on your right side and alastor on the left.
â they're both holding you to the best of their abilities
â lucifer gives alastors hand a squeeze before shuffling it to have a better grasp on your waist
â you all peacefully sleep through the night, not shifting much but it's pretty comfortable
â is the morning you're mostly cuddled into alastor, which is entirely lucifers doing
â when you're all awake though alastor gets arguably nervous
â but you being you, you slump over onto alastors chest, murmuring some affection to him
â lucifer gives a nod, it's time.
â he'd honestly probably move to get out of bed, assuming some privacy is wanted
â but he feels a shadow wrap around his forearm, it's a light pressure
â alastor shakes his head, mouthing a small "please"
after lucifer processes for a moment what exactly is about to go down, he's okay with that. he settles back in, his eyes on the two of you as alastor tilts your chin up, pressing a kiss to your lips. "my dear, would you mind if i tried something a little different with you?" alastor chimes, and you blink your eyes open again, still a bit sleepy as you give a nod.
he gently maneuvers you on the bed so you're laying on your back, his hands pawing at your sleep shorts and pulling them to your ankles. lucifer watches, honestly a little mezmerized by the whole ordeal. he feels proud in an odd sort of way. âI think our little doe deserves a treat, would you like that?â alastor murmurs as he spreads your thighs open. You take a shaky breath before murmuring some form of agreement, maybe even a little plea.
without further prodigy, alastors finally leans down his tongue swiping down your folds, hands grasping your hips to pull you to his face. your hands go to hold lucifers, but he shakes his head tutting at you. âah ah, thatâs not very polite princessâ he chides softly, guiding your hands to alastors hair.
and alastor makes good use of the tips and information lucifer gave him, his tongue plunging into your sweet little hole as his nose bumps your clit. his eyes wander up, making eye contact with you as he eats you out so wonderfully. you tug at his hair and he practically growls in pleasure, opting to change tactics and focus his mouth on your clit while his fingers slide inside you, gently curling into your sweet spot.
and lucifer watches it all, absolutely mesmerized. he doesnt know what it is about watching this but theres something about knowing alastor is doing exactly as told to in this scenario that makes lucifer feel warm. he lets alastor steal the show, doing only minimal work. maybe hes softly cooing praises or gently reminding you to show your appreciation to the one making you feel this good.
as you get close, evident by the murmur that falls past your lips, alastors eyes snap to lucifers for a moment, and he takes a moment to think before understanding. usually when youre close alastor is all over you, telling you to be such a good girl and cum, just slight praises and coaxing. given the fact hes face deep in your sweetness he cant really do that, so that job is up to lucifer now.
âisnât alastor doing such a good job duckling? you want to make sure he knows how good hes treating you, dont you?â lucifer coos, scooting in behind you on the bed so you stop trying to writhe away. âI think heâd be so disappointed if you didnt cum for him, you think you can do that, hm? you wanna cum all over your masters tongue?â lucifer says directly in your ear, and alastor feels a bit of a warmth in his stomach by being referred to as âmasterâ
when you give a weak moan in response lucifer sighs, shaking his head. âbe a good girl now, you can do it little doeâ he says which is what sends you toppling over the edge, your hips rutting up into alastors mouth, whiny moans coming from you as alastor desperately licks up your sweet release. this whole thing was quite enjoyable for alstor, but hearing lucifer call you âlittle doeâ his petname for you made him smugly satisfied.
after some aftercare which mostly just involved more cuddling, alastor feels satiated enough to shift to leave, before getting a look from lucifer. he reluctantly stays, feeling as you come to lay at his side once more. lucifer seems to take note of something, giving alastor a nod down, he glances down, seeing the obvious tent in his pants. alastor looks back up, slightly annoyed. a like âyeah, no shit dumbassâ kind of look is exchanged.
alastor looks back down at you, pressing a kiss to your forehead as you sigh happily. but alastor tenses as he feels a hand on his knee, shooting a glare to lucifer as he traces his hand up a little. the two meet as and alastor takes a shaky breath as lucifer leans in just a little, breathing out the next few words with a calmness alastor admires:
âjust keep cuddling herâ

The Court Jester Part 1
Yandere Batfam x GN Reader
Pt. 2, Pt. 3, Pt. 4
"How did this happen?" the man who claimed to be my father asked.
"It started when I was young. My mother was close friends with Bruce Wayne. So when she died, he decided to take me in. Looking back on it now, I can tell it was just so he could have a piece of her even though she was gone. He, like many other men were infatuated with the idea of her and what could happen if they had her. That is how I came along. Someone couldn't keep their hands to themselves. Nobody, but my father knows that they are my father. We have tried finding him before, but there has been no luck.
I was 4 when I was brought to the manor. Bruce, overwhelmed with anguish, couldn't even look at me as I had my mother's features. Alfred showed me around. I even got to meet my new brother Richard, better known as Dick. An accurate nickname because as soon as he met me, he decided he did not want to be around me. That was fine. I was still dealing with the loss of my mother. As time went on, I felt as if I was forgotten. Bruce was busy throwing himself into "work" and he only needed Dicks help. It didn't take me long to figure out who he was. With all the bruises and tension around the house when things got bad in Gotham anyone living in that house could tell he was Batman. He had claimed he didn't want me to get hurt that's why he never asked for help but I knew it was because I looked like mom. I had her (h/c) (h/t) hair and her (e/c) eyes.
A couple of years later, a new boy came into the mix. His name was Jason Todd. He was okay. He didn't really know when to stop, though. I heard a lot of fights between him and Bruce. He talked to me sometimes when we had time. I was in school getting good grades and he was a Robin so we didn't have much time for each other. But then he died, and I had no one again. Even when he did come back, he came back changed he no longer cared for me. He was harsh. Ruined.
Then there was Tim Drake. He was really nice at the beginning, but he got busy and sleep deprived, so I stopped reaching out. I didn't want to take up his time as he had an actual job.
Then Stephanie Brown came, and I realized that there was a pattern. These people were too busy for me. I should stay out of their way and not be a burden as I have proven to be before.
It was like that until Damian came. He was unlike all the other Robins. He was mean and brutal. It was around this time that I started to reach out to the family. I had realized I had severe depression and self esteem issue from being the only one in this family that did not excel at anything. When I reached out, he was the one who but me back in my place. He was the one who told me to stay in the background where I belonged. And I might have if I was still the child that came here unwillingly at 3 years old, but I am no longer that child. I am an adult who has a degree in psychology and has a stable job. So I left.
When I first moved out, the first person I told was my online friend. I had been in contact with him since I was 5. He was like a father to me. He was very happy for me and told me, "You are finally free from that dreadful house!" and I couldn't agree more. I stayed in contact with him over the years, and our bond strengthened.
Then, one day, not even a month after I left the manor, he asked to meet up. I agreed. We met up at an abandoned wearhouse. He had told me he was a wanted man, so I did not mind. When I saw him, my face lit up as did his. We talked about a lot of things that night. One of which was if I wanted to help him in his endeavor. Chaos. And I gladly agreed as I would do anything for him as he was my father.
He soon started training me. Making sure I could deal with pain and know how to fight. The first week was agony, but then we both realized something. No matter how badly I was injured, it never had reproductions as the injuries would heal almost supernaturally. So soon, we started experimenting. Of course, I still felt pain, but anything for my dad. We found that no matter what happened to me, I couldn't die.
Then, I became strong enough to take part in one of his acts. Which leads us to now. Dies that answer your question?" I say, looking into the desperate eyes of The Batman with an elongated smile. Glee shined in my eyes as I finally had his attention.
"But SHHHH dad doesn't want to know your secret identity! Says it would ruin all the fun!" I proclaim. My teeth are fully showing as I giggle.
"What did I do wrong?" Bruce whispers to himself. As if he didn't already know. This was all his fault, and now the last piece he had of (M/N) was out of reach.
-------------------------------------------------------
Hello!! This is my first time writing on Tumbler and just wanted to say Hi. Please let me know if you want this to continue. If it does, updates would probably be slow as I am in college and am using this as an artistic outlet. Thank you so much for reading!!

City Pigeons Bleed Green : Part 23
The cheerful bell rang a familiar chime as Damian opened the door to his favorite animal shelter. The scent of fur, pet food, and antiseptic was as comforting as it was potent. Damian watched Danny closely out of the corner of his eye. The other boyâs nose wrinkled, but he looked around the front room curiously.
âDamian! I wasnât expecting you today,â Ms. Lacey said as she popped out of the back room, summoned by the chime.
âMs. Laceyâ was their compromise. Damian had refused to simply refer to the woman by her first name and in turn, Ms. Lacey refused to give Damian her last name. It had been supremely frustrating. Now it was almost akin to game or inside joke between them. It was nice.
She brushed the riot of curls (blue this month) out of her face and looked at the group that had entered the shelter curiously.
Damian knew they were a bit of a sight. Danny was still swathed in a number of bandages and, now out of the apartment, looked a moment away from running. Because of that, Jason basically loomed over Danny and Damian as if he could keep the world at bay.
(He might just be able to manage to.)
âNo. It is not one of my normal service days, however, I am not here to volunteer,â Damian said, his tone almost apologetic. âI have brought Danielââ
âDanny.â
ââto see if there is a pet that would suit him.â
âHi, Danny,â Ms. Lacey said and leaned forward onto the counter.
Danny shied back into Jasonâs space. He clutched a little tighter at the backpack that his bear was safely stashed in. Cass had thought it might be good for Danny to be able to take the bear discreetly with him as he seemed rather attached to it. Considering the tracker in the bear, everyone quickly helped make that happen.
âHi Lacey,â Danny replied softly.
Ms. Lacey leaned back, her smiled now twinged with just a little bit of sadness. Damian had seen her look abused animals the same way. âDo you know what type of animal you might be interested in, Danny?â
âI was thinking a cat or dog?â The words were more a question than a statement. âSomeone that can sit with me.â
âThatâs a good start. That could also be rabbits, but if theyâre going to be living at the manor,â Ms. Lacey glanced briefly at Damian for a confirming nod, âthen a rabbit might not work the best. A cat has the advantage that it would be indoors and doesnât need as much effort depending on the animalâs age. But you might want a dog to walk! Why donât we get you into the kitten room to start, because thatâs a great time no matter what.â
When Danny glanced from Ms. Lacey to Damian to Todd, Todd gave a little nod. Danny tightened the hold on his backpack, took a breath, and gave a little nod.
-
âOkay, this is pretty great,â Danny said as he pried a tiny orange and white ball of fluff off his shoulder and set the little guy back down with his siblings.
Immediately the kitten was pounced by the black kitten and had his ears chewed on.
âKittens might be too much energy for me though,â Danny admitted. He had a feeling heâd never have the type of energy he used to again. He wasnât sure if that was from his death or⊠everything else.
âThey are a great deal of work,â Damian agreed. His own lap was full of peacefully sleeping kittens.
Danny was a little jealous. He caught the grey kitten who looked more like a a dust bunny as it romped past.
âWhat if I donât find a pet today?â
âThen we will go somewhere else. This is not the only shelter in the city,â Damian said.
The straightforward certainty that Damian had about the world was something Danny had come to appreciate over the last several days of knowing Damian. The fear was still there. Danny didnât know if it would ever go away, but he could ignore it now. Sometimes it was hardly even background noise.
Danny was used to having a brain full of static.
âIt will be fine, Brother,â Damian said when Danny didnât respond.
Brother. Damian insisted on using that instead of his name, but Danny figure that was because Damian didnât have a last name to call him like all the others. Bruce was simply âFatherâ too. Maybe it was about Wayne then? But Danny wasnât Daniel Wayne. He was just Danny⊠no one.
âYeah,â Danny made himself respond so that Damian didnât get worried. For all that Damian tried to be aloof he really was worse than even Dick.
âIf a kitten would be too much, what do you think of an adult cat?â
Danny looked down at the little slip of a kitten in his hands. It was so tiny. âI think letâs start with dogs. Something not so small and⊠breakable.â
Damian nodded and started to divest himself of cats. âI have heard the vets âjokeâ that kittens will heal from anything. One could toss a kitten and its missing foot in a cage and it would reattach. I suggest we do not try it.â
âNo,â Danny said in horror. âWe are very much not trying that, what the hell.â
âWhat is what I said.â Despite having to deal with many more kittens, Damian was up first and offering Danny his hand. âCome, Brother.â
Danny took the hand, stood, and still had one last kitten to pull off of of his jeans where it clung with this sharp, sharp claws.
---
AN: I was able to give this a read through finally, so have the first bit of this chapter! Because who doesn't want Danny and Damian surrounded by adorable kittens?

Recycling
I watched as the next employee entered the chamber. He appeared a bit confused, probably having expected a conference room rather than the dark space with mirrored walls. By the look of it, he had no idea that any one of the panes were one-sided, hesitantly fidgeting with his tie as he announced his presence with a timid âHello?â
I leaned into the microphone, âGood afternoon.â The nervous boyâs eyes dashed around the room, trying to identify the person speaking to him. His physical characteristics and mannerisms resembled a mouse, small and skittish.
âAm I supposed to be here?â he eventually replied, choosing the speaker above my viewpoint as his receptor.
âYes, this is the meeting to discuss your annual review.â I replied. âYou're in the right place, Mr. Donson. Would you like for me to refer to you by your given name?â
The boy shuffled anxiously, âDrayton is fine.â
Habitually, I continued. âIâm sure you're wondering why your annual review this year is different from those in the past. Donât worry Drayton, you are still one of our top performers, and your review reflects your incredible performance.â
Feeling a delicate surge of confidence, Drayton let a smile sneak up onto his lips. Being clean shaven and still holding some baby fat, it frankly was quite endearing. Cute even.
âAs you are already aware, our company has been having some financial issues recently. And as a high-ranking official in our accounting department, I am sure that you are more than knowledgeable on the details of this subject.â
Draytonâs youthful glee faltered for a moment.
âUnfortunately, we do not have the funds available to keep you on board and give you a raise,â I started. âThe company would like to offer you a deal: in exchange for accepting a substandard review and a 19% decrease in pay, we will offer you external benefits.â
Shock emerged from Draytonâs face, âWhat benefits would be worth a fifth of my paycheck?â
âUnfortunately I am liable to disclose that information,â I robotically replied. âYou can either accept or tender a resignation.âÂ
Drayton took a moment to decide, just like all the other employees typically did. But eventually, they all convinced themselves that losing employment at the company was the worse of the two options.
âIâll accept.â
âStand by.â I followed procedure, locking the exits and airways into the chamber. Once that was done, I began flipping the switches. Steam mechanisms, followed by audio machines, followed by visual projectors. I did not even pay attention to the squabbling accountant, panicking as his chamber was bombarded with smoke, abrasive phonics, and commands that flashed against the walls and reflected into every corner of the room.Â
Thanks to the padding in my control room, I absorbed none of it. I simply ignored Draytonâs screams and opened my laptop, getting back to my own duties as the process did its work. With all the vapors, I typically could not witness any of the changes that happened anywayâwhich also meant I could never attest to possible allegations if our company did ever come under some sort of legal fire in the future. But sometimes I did spot little things, flashes of commands that were being ingrained into the employee. MASCULINE, TRADITIONAL, ATTENTIVE. The small letters would pulse by an instant, although they were meaningless to me within my enclosed accommodations.
Eventually, my timer went off, and I closed out of the procedure. I exited the program and flipped the switches back over, shutting off all stimulatory mechanisms. It took a moment for the smoke to clear, presenting me with a new version of the employee. More muscular, more masculine, and more virile.
âHow are you feeling, Mr. Donovan?â
"Itâs Donson, boss." The man stood tall, stoic. His voice now held much more depth and presence.
"Itâs Donovan, Drake Donovan,â I affirmed. âThat's what's in our system."
I watched the man process this, the commandâs installation literally visible behind his now less-intelligent eyes.Â
âI see you were able to find part of your new uniform already.â I was referring to the briefs and sweatshorts that were covering the lower half of Drakeâs much larger body. The remnants of the former business casual outfit were scattered across his large feet. âThe closet behind you will contain the rest of your attire. Company fitness uniforms and approved footwear that will better fit your size and new position.â
âNew position?â Drake inquired, his question curious rather than interrogative.
âThe company has decided to reassign you as a security liaison, seeing as that will be a better fit for your paygrade.â I typed away at my reviewal report, adding in details of Drakeâs benefits package. Increase in height, dramatic increase in musculature, increase in hair, increase in virilityâŠ
To save money, the company liked to recycle its employees. We would bring in fresh graduates to run our corporate operations, and then once they hit their pay ceiling, recycled them into more manual, less intellectually-driven roles. Naturally, no one ever filed any complaints about this procedure as no one realized it existed. And even if they did, they would no longer have the brains capable to file such a complaint.
âSounds good, boss,â Drake replied, even though I had already known what his answer was going to be. With his dominating size and brutish stature, Drake had been remodeled into the standard male form that we needed for our team. And with this mind simplified to only focusing on traditional objectives (upholding masculinity, working out, fulfilling his role), Drake was now bound to solely focus on the companyâs objectives. Thanks to the recycling process, our company would keep the profits high and the employee turnover low. And now, Drake would remain entertained without the extra money by merely following orders and enjoying the simpler things in life, like flexing his muscles.

hey mae! itâs been awhile since iâve sent an ask but im always reading your work girl! i love how you write tbh. if youâre up to it do you think you could write something with poly marauders, where the reader has trouble eating and making themself eat due to poor appetite. my appetite really does come and go and ever since covid (maybe before) itâs like eating makes me feel revolted. sometimes i just donât feel like eating bc of other things like depression, adhd, anxiety. i was just wondering if you could write something with the boys helping out the reader with finding out what sounds good, cooking, and eating if possible. sometimes having someone around to talk to and hang out with makes it so much easier to deal -đ¶ïž
Hey Pepper, thank you sm! And thanks for being patient with me <3
cw: lack of appetite, mention of skipping meals
poly!marauders x gn!reader ⥠1.1k words
The sunâs going down, the last dregs of its light spilling brilliant and golden over the book in your lap, and you can feel your boyfriends starting to get restless. Well, two of them.Â
âIf weâre missing half the ingredients,â Sirius says, trailing James into the kitchen, âitâs not going to be any good.âÂ
James only tsks. âYe of little faith. Thatâs what improvisation is for.â He starts pulling things down from the cabinet.Â
âYouâre not even going to glance at the recipe?âÂ
âI donât need to. I know the general vibe.âÂ
âHelp!â Sirius calls towards the living room. âHeâs gone off the rails. Remus, come fix it.âÂ
Remus turns around to look over the back of the sofa, his shoulder brushing yours as he does. Heâs sitting right up against you despite the couch being empty, not that you mind. Remus is sort of like a cat that wants to be near you but not always to be pet. His touches are often like this, passive gestures like a hand on your head or his thigh pressed against yours. It works for you just fine; you can feel the affection bleeding into you from any point of contact.Â
âDonât you think we should just eat out?â Sirius asks, tilting his head and doing that thing with his eyes that you all pretend doesnât work on you.Â
Impressively, Remus keeps his face impassive. âIâm having leftover brussels sprouts,â he replies, âso itâs not really my concern. Anyway, James has a good history with not following recipes.âÂ
âExactly,â James says, grinning at Sirius, who scowls. But then he fixes his gaze on Remus. âSo why are you having that, Rem? Have what Iâm making.âÂ
âBecause theyâre going to go bad, and Iâm not hungry enough for a big meal.â The last part is said somewhat quieter, directed towards the living room as he turns back around and picks up his own book.Â
Out of the corner of your eye, you can see James frown, but he glances at Sirius and they seem to collectively decide not to push it. Remusâ appetite isnât much better than yours. He has his better days, but itâs not uncommon for him not to feel up to what your other boyfriends would consider a whole meal or to eat only chocolate until Sirius hounds him into something more substantial.Â
James looks to you hopefully. âYouâll have some, wonât you sweetheart?âÂ
You wince, hating to let him down, and from the look on Jamesâ face he clocks the guilt in your expression before even you get a chance to say, âI donât think Iâm really up to it tonight, either.âÂ
James deflates, but heâs clearly trying to put on a brave face. âThatâs alright. I think Iâll just save it for another night, then.âÂ
âIâm sorry,â you say, setting your book facedown on the armrest and turning around to face him more fully. âYou could still make it and just put leftovers in the freezer. Maybe Iâll have some tomorrow.â You wince again as soon as you say it. No promises, though.
The smile James gives you is comforting if not totally satisfied. âItâs okay. Iâll just make it another time, itâs not a problem.âÂ
You return his smile, close-lipped. Sirius is looking at you with narrowed eyes, arms crossed like heâs sizing you up.Â
âWhat are you going to eat?â he asks.Â
âHm?âÂ
âWhat are you going to have instead?â You hesitate, and he tilts his head knowingly, a piece of hair slipping from behind his ear to drape over his shoulder. âYou need to have something, especially since you didnât have lunch.âÂ
From the kitchen, James looks at you. âYou didnât?âÂ
âI justâŠdonât feel like it.â Itâs a feeble argument even to your own ears, and the look Sirius gives you says that he thinks so, too.Â
âYou canât miss two meals,â he says obstinately. âEven Remus is having some brussels sprouts.â
You look to Remus to be offended at the even Remus comment, but he only shrugs. Youâre on your own.Â
âWhat sounds good?â he asks you.Â
You try not to pout. âNothing. Everything sounds gross.âÂ
âCâmon, baby.â Sirius leans against the countertop. âIt doesnât have to be strictly dinner food, yeah? Just anything that sounds like youâd be willing to eat it.âÂ
You think for a minute. Remus touches the back of his hand to your leg, knuckles soothing over the skin beside your knee.Â
âI guessâŠice cream sounds okay,â you say hesitantly. âBut I know thatâs not exactly nutritiousâŠâÂ
âWould a milkshake be close enough?â James pipes up.Â
You shrug. âI guess.âÂ
He grins. âI can do that for you, lovie. Just gimme a sec.âÂ
James is a loud cook. You go back to your book while cabinet doors slam and the blender whirs and there's a muffled âoh, shitâ as something is undoubtedly dropped on the floor, but a minute later heâs bringing you a glass of something thick and chocolate-y looking. You smile at the added garnish of mint and a straw, reaching for it.Â
âThanks, Jamie.âÂ
He winks. âAnytime.âÂ
Remus is the only one courteous enough not to obviously watch while you take a sip, and you feel your eyebrows raise as you look up at James.Â
âThis is really good,â you say. He practically glows at the praise. âI didnât even know we had chocolate ice cream.âÂ
Sirius barks a laugh, and Jamesâ smile widens.Â
âWhat?â you ask.Â
âWe donât,â he admits. âWill it ruin your appetite if I tell you itâs not actually ice cream?âÂ
You shake your head, sucking at the straw. âIâm already drinking it, so.âÂ
James beams. He really is looking very proud of himself. âItâs a protein shake. A pretty balanced meal, actually.âÂ
âOh, nice.â You grin at him, taking another hearty slurp mostly because you know itâll please him. âItâs perfect, thank you.âÂ
âGotta keep our sweetheart fed,â he says, bending down for a kiss. Sirius and Remusâ hums of approval nearly harmonize, and you and James share an elated look while they both do their best to pretend like it didnât happen.Â
âCan I try?â Remus asks, and you tilt the cup towards him in invitation.Â
He wraps his lips around your straw, sipping hesitantly. He looks mildly impressed.Â
âCould you make me one of those too?âÂ
From the look on Jamesâ face, heâd be delighted to. âCourse, love.â He plants a smacker on Remusâ cheek and nearly knocks Sirius over as he beelines for the kitchen.Â
âThis is just excellent,â Sirius gripes, but you see the satisfaction in his expression. âNow that you two have blown up his ego, Iâll have to eat something he makes too.âÂ
âCorrect,â James says brightly. âAnd you should be so lucky.âÂ

sturdy
steve wants to test out the desk he just built for you | everyone say thank you @superblysubpar for encouraging me to write this hehe | 2.7k, f!reader, oral (f receiving), unprotected piv. don't do it kids. 18+ as always!! mdni!!
âBabe! Câmere!â Steve calls from the spare bedroom, echoing down the hall of your new apartment.Â
Youâre in the kitchen, starting to unpack a few boxes there, while Steve had been working on putting together your new desk. Obviously, youâre more than capable of putting your own desk together, but Steve had offered, and, well, sometimes you have to make the patriarchy work for you. Placing the half-unpacked box of silverware onto the counter, you shout back a reply and head through the maze of boxes to the bedroom, âIâm cominâ! Give me a sec!â
When you reach the bedroom, Steveâs standing in the middle of the room, hands on his hips as he looks at his handiwork. His back is to you, so he doesnât notice when you come in, and you take a second to admire him. Heâs quite the sight; wearing an old pair of gym shorts that are a bit too small for him, a well-worn shirt that might be yours â youâre not sure from this angle â and a baseball cap on backwards to keep his hair out of his face. He looks so good, and it hits you then, just how lucky you are. How lucky you are to be living with your ridiculously handsome boyfriend who offers to build things for you out of the kindness of his heart and looks ridiculously good while doing so.Â
âHonââ the word dies on his lips as he turns around to find you standing in the doorway. A grin stretches across his face at the sight of you, making your heart flutter in your chest. âYou starinâ at me, stalker?â
âSo what if I was?â you ask, crossing the room so you can throw your arms over his shoulders, âI canât admire my hot boyfriend?â
A strong arm wraps around your waist to pull you close. He hums in thought before shrugging, âIâll allow it, I guess. If you give me a kiss.â
âDeal,â you murmur as you lean up on your toes to press your lips to his in a soft kiss. Itâs short and sweet, but you donât mind. âThanks for building the desk, baby.â
âAnything for you, honey,â he hums quietly in reply, dipping down one more time for a quick peck on the lips. His hand rubs over the curve of your hip gently as he adds, âHopefully itâs sturdy enoughâŠâ
âSteve, Iâm sure itâs fine, as long as you followed the directionsââ
âMaybe we could test it out?â he asks, giving you a cheeky grin, eyebrows raised in question.Â
You snort a laugh, eyebrows furrowing together. Youâre pretty sure you know what heâs getting at, but you ask anyway, âAnd how would we do that?â
His smile grows, looking a bit more mischievous as he turns you around and slowly begins walking you back towards the desk. You let him lead you, giggling with your hands on his shoulders, until you bump into the desk. He leans down to kiss you again, and just before your lips touch, he squeezes your hips and mutters, âUp, honey.â
Itâs a messy kiss, your lips nearly missing Steveâs in the effort to get up onto the desk, even with him helping you up. You briefly wonder if this is safe â you have no doubt that Steve built the desk well, but you highly doubt that itâs made to support a whole humanâs weight â but the thought quickly passes by when Steve takes your thighs into his hands and pulls you towards the edge of the desk for a proper kiss.Â
Steveâs nose nudges into yours, poking at your cheek as he kisses you, lips slotting against yours. He kisses you as if he hasnât kissed you in days, groaning into your mouth as you rock your hips forward, searching for his touch. You let out a whine when his teeth nip at your bottom lip, tongue quickly following suit to soothe the bite.Â
âYou know, I wasâ I was mostly kidding,â Steve pants when he pulls back between kisses, lips pink and wet as his tongue darts out.Â
âI know,â you reply with a huff of a laugh, twisting your fingers into the soft hair at the nape of his neck, âBut you look so fucking hot, and you just built me a whole ass desk, and we fucking live together now, andâ please just fuck me on the desk, baby.â
âShit. Yeah, okay, I can do that,â he quickly agrees, not quiet believing his stupid line actually worked, and that youâre spurring him on as you wiggle your leggings down your hips and legs. The fabric gets stuck at your knees, and Steve springs into action, murmuring something about how itâs his job to undress you as he pulls at the fabric until he can drop it to the floor.Â
His hands land on your thighs again, thumbs pressing to the soft flesh at the inside of your thighs as they push up towards your core, spreading your legs apart as he goes. Thereâs no mistaking the small damp spot in the center of your panties as you squirm under Steveâs gaze. Pressing the pads of his thumbs to the crease at the apex of your thighs, he finally looks back up to you and asks, âCan I taste you first?â
Your answer is a quiet, choked moan and a frantic nod, âPlease.â
Steve doesnât have to be told twice, sinking to his knees in front of the desk as he pulls you closer. Itâs the perfect height for this; your burning core only inches from Steveâs hot mouth. He wastes no time in leaning forward, pressing the softest of kisses to the growing wetness there, nose nudging against your clit through your underwear. A low groan comes from deep in his chest, âCan I take these off?â
Before Steve can even finish his sentence youâre nodding again, lifting your hips off of the desk as best you can so he can pull the fabric from your body. As soon as your underwear is on the floor, heâs back on you, licking a broad stripe up your cunt that has you gasping in surprise at his eagerness, âSteveââ
âMmm,â he hums as his tongue finds your clit, sending vibrations up your spine as he sucks softly and rolls the sensitive nub between his lips.Â
It makes you keen, a high-pitched whine that might be embarrassing if you werenât so blissed out. Your legs tremble as he kisses back down towards your dripping entrance, and your fingers twitch with the need to hold onto something. How Steve always makes you feel untethered so quickly, youâll never know, but you remedy the problem easily, pushing his hat off of his head. Itâs perfect timing on your part; your fingers rake through his soft hair just as his tongue dips inside of you, lapping at your slick.Â
You pull at the strands a bit harder than you mean to and Steve moans against you. The sound isnât quite loud enough for you to hear, but you can feel it. The sensation makes your legs close around Steveâs head, but an arm curls around one thigh before it can press against him. It doesnât take much for Steve to push your leg back down and hold you open for him, despite how much youâre squirming.Â
Steve pulls back after another sloppy kiss to your clit, lips shining with your slick and his own spit. Heâs grinning, borderline smug as he nuzzles into the crease of your thigh again, nipping the delicate skin there, âYâalways taste so sweet, baby. Only fitting that my pretty girl has the prettiest pussy, huh?âÂ
You squirm again, this time in embarrassment, and huff a pathetic whine, âSteve, stopââ
âWell I canât lie,â he all but giggles, pressing a kiss to your hipbone as his gaze drags up your body to meet your eyes, âWant me to keep going? Or dâya want my cock?â
Both sound like great options, but you can see the outline of his hard cock in his slightly-too-small shorts, and you want him. Reaching down to brush some hair out of Steveâs face, you murmur, âYou. Want you.â
âI gotcha, sweetheart,â he smiles, sweeter this time, giving your thigh another kiss before he pulls himself up to stand.Â
Your chest heaves as you reach for him, taking the fabric of his shirt into your grasp and yanking him closer for a kiss. You can taste yourself on his mouth, but you donât really mind, especially as his hands roam up your sides, inching underneath your shirt to cup your breasts. Heâs teasing again, thumbs barely brushing over your nipples. But two can play at that game, even while heâs kissing you so hard you can barely breathe, and you slip a hand between you, palming his hard cock over his shorts.Â
âOkay, okay,â he pants after a moment of shaky breaths and wandering hands, âCan youâ will you bend over for me? âS that alright?â
Instead of answering, you slide off of the desk and cup Steveâs face in your hands to give him a firm kiss. You make a show of turning around, leaning over your brand new desk until your forearms press to the wood grain. You hear a small groan from behind you as you push your hips backwards, ass pressing to Steveâs bulge, âChrist, sweetheart. Howâd I get so goddamn lucky? Fuckinâ gorgeous, and all fâme.âÂ
Warm hands spread wide over your hips, the pad of Steveâs thumb rubbing a short line over one of the dimples in the small of your back. He gives your flesh an appreciative squeeze before his touch is gone. You huff a whine at the loss of warmth and you hear a quiet chuckle from behind you, âRelax, baby. Gimme a second.â
Thereâs a quiet rustle of clothing, and then Steveâs hands are back on you, pulling you back towards him. Youâre about to complain, to ask him to do something, anything, when you finally feel the tip of his cock nudge against your entrance. Your breath catches as he pushes his hips forward, finally sinking into you slowly. He takes it easy, knowing that youâre plenty wet, but maybe not quite warmed up enough from just his mouth.Â
He stops when the front of his thighs press against the backs of yours, fingertips dimpling your hips with how firmly heâs holding onto you. Like heâs worried you might slip away. You moan softly at the aching stretch of your cunt, dizzy with how full you feel of Steve, Steve, Steve. Heâs all you want â all you can think about, âOh f-fuuck⊠StevieâŠâ
You swear you can feel his thighs quivering against yours as he stills inside of you. You can hear the grit in his voice, picture the way his jaw is clenched, as he murmurs, âOkay?â
A shaky breath escapes your lips, and you nod emphatically, maybe a bit too quickly, voice a higher pitch than normal, âSo good, baby. Move, please move, need y-yoââ
The words die on your lips as Steve draws his hips back slowly and then presses back in. Your head falls forward, mouth dropping open in pleasure with a whine. You feel hot everywhere; a warmth that starts in tummy and spreads slowly, creeping up your torso and chest, into your limbs, until it feels like your body is on fire in the best way.Â
His hips roll in and out of your tight heat. It feels so good, and somehow, you still need more. Your forearms press further into the desk as you shift, pushing up on your toes to tilt your hips. You know that if youâre in just the right position, Steve will find the spot that makes you see stars. Desperate for the feeling, you shift again and hear a huff from behind you at the movement.Â
Steve knows what you want, and pushes his arm underneath you, between your body and the desk. His hands press to the softness of your tummy and to the curve of your hips as he pulls you into a better position, angling your hips so he can reach even deeper. The new angle has you gasping with each thrust, a punched-out sound that you canât help between whimpers of Steveâs name and expletives. Steveâs not fairing much better, and you can hear the low grunt he lets out every time his skin meets yours, âYouâre so wetâ fuck, sweetheart â yâhear that? Hear how wet you are fâme? Feel so good âround me, baby. So good for me.â
âY-yes, yeah â ah, Steve! â all yours,â you babble in an attempt to answer him, though youâre too fucked out to be all that coherent.Â
Seconds later, you get exactly what youâd been wanting when youâd shifted your hips; the head of Steveâs cock pressing to the spot inside of you that turns you to putty. The moment he finds it, your legs go weak, and Steveâs grasping onto you even tighter in an attempt to keep you somewhat upright. His arm curls across your midsection, and you feel his warmth against your back as he presses his chest to you. You can feel his breath, hot against the nape of your neck as he murmurs, âRight there, baby? Thatâs what you wanted, huh?âÂ
You clench around him, making the drag of his cock that much sweeter. The feeling pulls a deep moan out of Steve, sending shivers down your spine as he twitches inside of you. One of the hands on your waist pushes up under your shirt until he can press against your sternum, and then heâs pulling you almost upright. Your eyes meet his in the vanity mirror attached to the desk, and you moan at the sight; you look just as fucked out as you feel, and so does Steve.Â
Lips on your neck, Steve hums, pleased, âThereâs my girl. Look at yourself, honey, so so pretty on my cock, yeah?âÂ
âStevie,â you whine his name, and heâs sure itâs the best sound heâs ever heard, ââm close, âm so close.âÂ
âYâgonna cum on my cock for me, sweetheart? Câmon, honey, know ya can,â he says, his free hand snaking down your torso and your hips to find your clit. He circles it quickly, over and over, just how you like, and with his cock hitting that perfect spot deep inside of you, it doesnât take long until you fall apart with a cry of his name.Â
Heâs not far behind you, hips never slowing their pace, even as he bends you back over the desk. Every wave of pleasure has your cunt clenching around him, and it pushes Steve over the edge, too, with whiny groans against your skin where his face is pressed. You can feel him spill deep inside of you and you shudder, eyes squeezing shut as your head falls forward, hitting the desk with a small thunk.Â
Steveâs teeth sink into the smooth skin of your shoulder, quick and gentle, more of a nip, as he presses his chest to your back. Soft kisses soothe over the small bites, and then Steveâs pressing his nose into the crook of your neck, breath hot and heavy as he nuzzles there. You pant into your arms folded on the desk and melt into Steveâs touch as his hand rubs lovingly across your hip bones.Â
âYâalright, baby?â he asks, out of breath.Â
âMhm,â you murmur, post-orgasm haze still clouding your thoughts.Â
âGood,â you can feel the curve of his lips against your spine, followed by a few soft kisses that trail down your back. He stops halfway down, hands settling onto your hips as he stands back up and slowly pulls out.Â
You wince, still so sensitive, but let Steve pull you up and off of the desk, turning you around so your lips can meet his. He kisses you on the mouth, once, twice, and trails a kiss over to your cheek. Your fingers tangle into his hair and you let out a breathless laugh, âI think itâs sturdy enough.â
Steve huffs in amusement, âThank god. Imagine if it broke while we were on it. And, good news, we just checked the office off of the âplaces we still need to fuck in the new apartmentâ list.â
âIf you bring me to the bathroom right now, we can check off another one.â
Eyes going wide, Steve grins, literally whisking you off of your feet as he says, âDeal.â

omg I loved your grumpy x sunshine Mike and reader work - could you please do another scenario where the sunshine! reader is the one who has a bad day and itâs up to grumpy! Mike to comfort and help out in his own way? :) thanks for sharing your work!
a/n : i'm glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the request. fem!reader, she/her pronouns, mainly just fluff
â bad day : grumpy!mike schmidt x sunshine!fem!reader
mike knew something was wrong the moment he closed his door behind him and was greeted with silence has he entered the house.
you were always rushing in to greet him as soon as the sound of his keys against the door knob signaled his arrival, but today that clearly wasn't the case.
"hello?" mike called out and a moment later was met by the sight of abby creeping out of the hallway.
"where's y/n?"
"well hello to you too" the young girl rolled her eyes, walking past mike and heading for the kitchen.
"sorry" he sighed, catching her arm before she got too far and pulling her into his arms for a hug, earning a groan in response. "how was your day?"
"it was okay, but i think y/n/n's sick."
"sick? what do you mean?" mike thought back to when he last saw you just that morning. you were fine, your normally bubbly self despite the early hours, yawning between giggles as you and abby got breakfast prepared.
abby shrugged, "i don't know, she's been in bed since we got home."
mike knew you better than abby to know that you couldn't be sick. even if you were sick, you would protest and continue your daily routine as usual. something had to have been seriously wrong for you to defy from that routine and lay in bed for hours, especially with abby home. you hated to leave her alone and always tried to find something spontaneous and fun for the two of you to do if time permitted.
he warily walked into the direction of your shared bedroom and slowly opened the door that was left ajar. the lights were off and if it wasn't for the glow of the hallway light, he wouldn't have been able to see your figure on the bed in the dimness of the afternoon darkness.
but there you were, laying on your side, facing away from the door. mike could tell you weren't sleeping by the way that you were scratching at the loose threads of the faded colored duvet.
"hey" he called out softly, nearing your spot on the bed where he then took a seat on the edge, softly placing a hand on your shoulder. "you okay?" he asked, trying to gauge your emotions. that quickly cleared up however when he heard a sniffle come from you, followed by a small hiccup. you were crying.
mike leaned over to look at your face and was met with wet eyes and puffy chapped lips. his eyebrows furrowed, "hey hey hey" he said softly, moving you so you were now laying on your back, looking up at the ceiling as you tried to will the tears away. you hated crying, and you knew mike hated to see you cry. "what's wrong? what happened?"
you closed your eyes and let out a deep breath, clearly trying to control yourself. "just...had a bad day." you sighed.
"well, talk to me about it." mike wasn't always the best at dealing with emotions, but he was good at comforting you and abby, always wanting you to open up to him, even if he had trouble doing the same sometimes.
you took in another deep breath and nodded, preparing yourself to tell mike about the worst day you'd had in a while.
"i fell off the front steps after you and abby left this morning. but it was okay" you started, "i laughed, realized i scraped by knees and had to change my pants but that was okay." mike nodded along and listened, rubbing your side as you spoke. "but then i got a flat tire on my way to work." you continued, sighing as you felt the emotions building up again. "that was fine, it took me a while to get it fixed but i mananged and that was taken care of with no problems. but i was late, and usually my boss would let that kind of thing slide, but we had some hire ups there to oversee us and when one of them called me out for not being "better prepared", instead of changing the subject or at the very least, defending me after everything i've done for him, he agreed! then she basically told him that i should either be fired or have my paycheck cut." you finished with a huff and let the fresh tears that had built up in your eyes fall down your face.
mike felt a pang of hurt in his chest as he heard you recount the unfortunate events of your day. you didn't deserve to go through all of that. "why didn't you call me?" he asked, brushing the tears away from your face and attempting to flatten the hairs that had become out of place.
your hands came up to cover your face as you let out a sob. "i forgot to charge my phone!" you cried, earning a soft aww honey from mike as he kissed your temple, allowing for you to let your feelings out. after a minute of you gasping for air through your cries and furiously wiping away tears that just kept coming, you started to relax. you sighed and turned your head to your partner.
"i'm sorry you had to see me like this, how was your day?" you asked, still sniffling. mike shook his head and scoffed a laugh, even in the middle of a breakdown, you still want to talk about him.
"no don't worry about me, it was fine." he said, "how can i help you?"
you shrugged, looking down and beginning to play with mikes fingers where his hand now rested on your stomach.
"come on" he insisted, "you always help me when i'm having a bad way and i want to help you now. do you want a snack? do you want to watch a movie, or go for a drive? anything you want, i'll do it for you."
you let out a small laugh at mike's dedication, causing him to squeeze your side. "i'm serious!"
you looked back up and into his eyes, cracking a small smile. "maybe a movie." you said quietly.
"okay, i can do that." mike spoke, starting to get up from his seat on the bed until he was stopped by your hand on his arm.
"but first can you just hold me for a bit. please?" mike looked down at you with a kind of softness that he ever only reserved for you.
"yeah, i can do that too."

divorce? hell nah // logan howlett x fem!mutant!reader
Summary: Youâd been fighting a lot with your husband Logan lately over pointless stuff, so Laura is worried about the future of her parentâs relationship. So are you.
Warnings: stupid fights, cursing, angst, reader dealing with depression, Logan being the best daddy and husband. Mentions of anxiety, family and work drama. Laura being your daughter so found family. Happy ending, mentions of smut.
Words: 2.5k.
A/N: Once again, a reminder that english is not my first language so Iâm sorry if there is a mistake. This takes place in the world of Logan (2017) but everyoneâs fine of course, letâs pretend that no one is dy1ng and you adopted Laura. I had a dream about this so enjoy, I wrote it so fast before I forgot it. Love yâall! <3 ALSO, you can read this with my previous Logan fic TRAINING SEASON, this is them in the future.
italics = past.
â â â
âLogan we need to stop fighting like this over stupid shitâ you exhaled tired of this. Lately you've been fighting a lot with Logan, so frequent that it feels weird to you. Because not even when you were younger you remember fighting so much, and 80% of the time it was over meaningless stuff.Â
The day was over, so both of you were doing your night routine to go to bed. The nostalgia of a sunday night is all over the air. Logan just joined you after putting Laura to sleep, he closed the door of your shared room. Youâve been trying to get up from the bed but the day was really exhausting mentally for you.
Logan wanted to add that the last fight was you that started it but he held himself to make it worse because it would not add anything mentioning that right now. It was already in the past. âYeah, I agree.â He just nods and stands far away from you with his hands resting on his hips, heâs looking at the floor thinking for a solution.
You are aware you are not at your best moment, you are dealing with so much lately. You are all the time worried about your family drama, then there are so many things changing at work that are stressing you out too. Also, of course the daily worries that include having a family.Â
Logan is aware of this tough moment you are going through and heâs always there to support you, to have a shoulder to cry on, all ears for you so you donât have to hold anything in your mind. Thatâs also what you did when heâs dealing with shitty things.Â
But lately, god, everything seems to get on your nerves for the both of you. Sometimes the clothes are all spread on the floor, or when you arrived late from work and there is nothing on the fridge left to eat, or when Logan tries to defend Laura for something that really needs a punishment, etc. And it doesnât help when you had a shitty day at work or keep receiving bad news from your family, so sometimes you just explode and Logan is also mad or had a shitty day so thatâs when the fights start.Â
âWe really need to stop, Laura's been asking if we are okayâ you told him with tears in your eyes. âWhen you went for a run in the morning, she came here to our room and laid next to me in bed so we had breakfast together and she looked under the weather, like she was not having a good time even when we had sweet treats and stuffâŠâ you started to tell him about what happened earlier. âSo I asked her if everything was alright and she looked right into my eyes and with a sad face she asked me if we were going to divorce- and- I told you Lo it was the most heartbreaking thing she could possibly ask me andâŠâ you started to sob by remembering that conversation.Â
Logan is now sitting next to you at the end of the bed. Holding your hand close to him, all of his attention to you. âAnd I was so shocked so I put my hands on her face holding her to really pay attention to what I was about to sayâŠâ you continued.Â
âNo, baby. Why are you asking that? Your dad and I love each other so much, and both of us love you so so so so much. We are not getting divorcedâ you held her face trying your best not to cry in front of her, the thought of being apart from the little family you had with Logan made you sad.Â
âIâm asking because last night I heard you guys fighting, I mean you were raising your voices and then dad closed the door really hard. And itâs not the first timeâ Laura confessed and you felt bad that she had to listen to you argue. âLast week when I was outside playing with Franky I also heard both of you yellingâ.Â
âIâm sorry, baby. You should not have witnessed that, donât worry. With your dad weâre okayâ you caressed her hair to give her some calm to her mind.
âMy friend Dani told me that it happened the same to their parents that are divorced now. So Iâm scared that one day dad will leave us just like Daniâs dadâ Laura told you with tears in her eyes just at the thought of her dad leaving her and her mom.Â
Thatâs when your heart broke into a million pieces. You kept telling her not to worry, that you were having pointless arguments. You didnât want to tell her about your problems at work and with your family because sheâs a little girl, she should be worried about school and having fun as a kid and not about divorce and her dad leaving.Â
So once you noticed she calmed down, you stayed in bed the whole morning and watched a movie together with Franky on Lauraâs lap. The dog she adopted never leaves her side especially if he senses that sheâs sad.Â
And also you made up your mind that things needed to change, to stop these stupid fights with your husband.Â
You told Logan about what happened in the morning when he left for his daily workout. Not wanting to tell him during the day because Laura is so concentrated on every attitude of both of you. Thatâs why you are telling him now that she went to sleep. Logan sighs like never before, like he was holding his breath the whole time you were talking, but never letting go of your hands together. âI know our daughter is smart and so empathetic just like you, so I get why sheâs worried. I had to admit that I closed the door so hard, thatâs on me. We need to stop fighting over bullshit, babe. We need to fix this, but Iâm not leaving you guysâ. Logan let go of your hand to stand in front of you squatting down holding your knees, âIâll NEVER leave you, you hear me? We had been through so much worse, remember? And we made it because I fucking love you and I know you love meâ. Logan reassured you too in case the same thought that Laura has is placed in your mind too.
You caressed his cheek and looked into those beautiful eyes of his, âI love our family, Logan. Like you said we made it through so much worse, Iâm sorry Iâve been irritated lately. Thatâs on me, Iâm going to do my bestâ tears flowing down your face. Logan quickly wiped them off.Â
âBabe, Iâm right here. I donât know why but when youâre in a dark time you always felt free to cry and told me about it but this time it feels like youâre holding all of this sadness to bury it deep down. What 's going on? What changed?â Logan asked with curiosity because youâve been together for years.Â
âI donât know, Lo. Maybe the hormones, maybe I donât want to be a burden for you guys. Like I have to be strong for Laura, sheâs my number one priority right now and she had an awful life before she found us so I donât want to give her all of my shit, sheâs a kid. Like I said, she should be worried about school and having the childhood she deservesâ you poured your heart out to your husband.Â
âMy love youâll never be a burden for me, you hear me? I need you to say it so that you understand. Besides, Laura needs to see us sad too, we canât lie to her that life is all the time just joy. Iâm not saying to tell her all of our problems, but that is valid if we feel some kind of way, we would be faking if we were smiling or just okay all the timeâ. Logan, the angry wolverine you used to know was gone the moment he met you back then in Charlesâs mansion. Anger stopped being his only emotion, you made him feel in that same moment that he was always going to be able to show his real emotions and stopped playing this character of the angry and intimidating man.Â
âI understand, Loâ. You finally gave him a smile. It is not fair for you to struggle alone and let go of this stress by fighting. You really need to start saying whatâs going on, and Logan is always going to be there for it. Just by thinking of the huge difference of the fights you used to have in the past, a small laugh escaped your mouth. Logan looks at you surprised but happy that you got something off your chest.Â
âWhatâs on your mind now, sugar?â Logan asked curiously.Â
âI just remember the things we used to fight when we started dating, I mean we were younger and sometimes really stupid. And also the fights we used to have for mistakes we made on missions. We still fight when the other is on the field out there in danger, the worry about losing the other one always starts an argumentâŠâ you answered.Â
âYeah but those always ended up with a make out sessionâŠâ Logan gave you a flirty grin, his dirty mind already enjoying the memories. To be honest, after a mission with or without an argument it always ends with both of you giving each other so much pleasure and comfort for being safe and sound.Â
âARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?! THAT WAS WAY TO DANGEROUS!!â Logan losing his mind because you almost got killed out there.Â
âI HAD TO DO IT, I COULDNâT LEAVE THEM RIGHT THERE!!â you explained yourself why you came back to the field and risked your life. âIF I DIDNâT HELP THEM, NOBODYâS WAS GOING TO!â.Â
God, your empathy is one of Loganâs favorite things about you, but more than once it has given him almost a heart attack.Â
âNOT ALL THE TIMES WE CAN SAVE THEM ALL, I NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT. I CANâT LOSE YOU, PRINCESSâ Logan holding your shoulders steady.
Once you were back at the mansion, and in the privacy of your shared room, Logan wanted to keep talking about the risk you made, but you just wanted to take a shower to take off all of the work done. âHoney, Iâm right here in one piece. Iâm fineâ you brushed his hair with your fingers to calm him down. Trying to get a smile from him.Â
âI insist, I canât lose you. Youâll be freaking out too if it was me in your positionâ Logan raised his brow knowing youâll be worried too about him.Â
âI know, Iâll be way worse hystericalâ you admitted, but at the same time just trying to calm him down. Right now both of you need to relax after a hard mission. You kept brushing his hair until he stopped talking and just leaned into your touch. Both of you ended up taking a bath together and stayed all afternoon in the sheets making love. Other times the fights after missions didnât seem to stop and led to angry sex.Â
âNow that you said that, it reminds me of Laura explaining to me something she realized when she heard us fighting last night andâŠâ you started laughing but also felt guilty.
âIâm sorry, honey. We didnât mean to raise our voices, we didnât mean for you to hear us but sometimes with your dad we had our differences. But everything is fine now, we talked about it and itâs okay nowâ you didnât lie. One thing you and Logan hate is to go to bed angry, itâs also true that you didnât want Laura to hear it.
âYeah, I know you were fighting because it wasnât the happy screams you and dad make at night sometimesâ. Laura said with the innocent intention a kid has. You almost choked on your cup of tea.
You donât know if it was because of her powers that she heard the happy screams sheâs talking about, because the house is huge and her room is not that close to your shared room. And since she arrived, every time you have sex with Logan both of you are really aware that there is someone else in the house so you keep your voice low and always lock the door. You donât want to traumatize your daughter.
Not like before having kids, or when Laura is staying the night somewhere else, that Logan asks you to be loud so the neighbors can hear his name.
âAre you fucking kidding me she said that?â Logan laughing at your face, red like a tomato.Â
âDonât laugh at that, Lo! It was so embarrassing to explain to her that it was a conversation for another dayâŠâ you hid your face in your palms, Logan still teasing you about your sudden shyness. âSo I told her that her daddy was going to explain someday when she was older why adults make those happy screamsâ now you are teasing him because his face almost dropped. Already anxious about how heâs going to explain to his daughter how babies come to the world and all that stuff.Â
âNope, because sheâs never going to grow up. She'll always be our little girlâ he tried to convince himself about that. You gave him a pat on his back that he can handle that.Â
âOur little girl is almost 12, babe. So youâll have to have THAT talk sooner that you think with her. But donât worry Iâm sure youâre going to nail that because you are the best daddyâ. You assured him.
God, you can picture in your mind the reaction of Logan when teenager Laura will bring her first partner. Youâll need to be there for him because your daughter is about to experience a lot of things and your husband will need your help.Â
âDonât be a brat with me please, sweetheart Iâm begging youâ Logan easily put you on his lap, brushing your hair out of your face. âWhat if instead of giving me more anxiety you help me get rid of that anxiety weâve been dealing with lately?â he kissed your neck, his breath so warm against your skin.Â
âWhat do you suggest, big boy?â his hand now traveling down your spine and you hold his face close to your chest, Logan leaving kisses on top of your clothed breasts. God, you miss this, you miss him being this closer.Â
âMaybe a bath or I can fuck you like this right now but we have to be really careful with the noises, especially you doll. I know you like to scream my name and how good I make you feelâ Logan already taking his shirt off to whatever option you are down to. You smacked his toned chest at the insinuation, pulling him closer to kiss you with the eagerness you missed so much. He lifted you from your spot heading to take that bath, it was going to be a long night and tomorrow morning you both need to be up early to drop Laura off at school.
