What's funny about Draxum and Splinter co-parenting is that they're both overprotective in completely opposite directions.
Drax is the ultimate crunchy mom, kids eat only nutritious home-cooked meals free of added salt and sugars and artificial dyes. Dessert is reserved for very special occasions, and there's no junk food or soda allowed in his house. Meanwhile Splinter watches them eat stale cheerios off the floor and is like "meh, the dirt gives them extra minerals."
Draxum looks over the ingredients list of every product in his house obsessively. He uses candles everywhere but will freak out if you buy one from Bath & Body Works because those mass-produced ones have so many carcinogens. He forbids air fresheners and has some weird-ass laundry routine to keep toxic detergents away from his boys. Splinter complies with these rules by not washing their clothes.
On the flip side, Draxum watches these boys suplex each other into the ground every day and barely blinks. Leo is playing with fire and Mikey is finding the highest place he can jump off without breaking his knees. Donnie is building pipe bombs in the lab. It's fine, he says. He built them to be sturdy, they might get banged up and break a bone or two, but that's childhood. That's how they learn.
He 'teaches' them to swim by chucking them in the pool and letting them figure it out. When Splinter freaks out Draxum says he's watching them, that he'd intervene if they started drowning. Mikey started drowning and he got him out, see? He's all wet and grumpy, but the others are just vibing.
Splinter cites how they come running to him in tears whenever their rough-housing ends in scrapes and bruises, holding out the injured body part for Daddy to kiss and fuss over them. Draxum remarks that they only do this with him; they're magically fine with it when the same thing happens on Draxum's watch.
[He would never let them get actually hurt, he's like this because Yokai babies are tougher than human ones and he KNOWS they're resilient and heal fast. Raph puts a brother through the wall and Leo is running around giggling asking him to do it again. Mikey loves it when Bella throws him like a fucking shot put ball. He'd obviously adjust his expectations for Donnie, who is tough but still more fragile than his brothers, and even moreso after he takes Donnie out of training to put him to better use in the lab. And if one of them ever was seriously hurt or got sick, he'd 100% be at the side the entire time, doing everything he can to make it better and comfort them]

Mmmkay, i would love to see your vision about a domestic bucky. If he moves close to the Wilson's, and starts to meet someone? He is insecure but want to try feeling something new. Maybe he could walk at night because he just woke up after a nightmare and then meet that person, i don't know.
Hope you feeling better today ❤️

~
Bucky shot up from the floor, cold sweat clinging to his forehead, heart pounding inside his ribcage. The nightmares didn’t haunt him like they used to, but when they inevitably returned, they always came with an ugly vengeance. His palms groped around the cool wooden floor, regaining his sense of reality. He had to just assure himself that he was really awake, that this was real.
To his relief, the ringing in his ears subsided and the graphic images faltered. He peered around at the unfamiliar walls, taking in the dark scene of his new living room. A measly coffee table here, a couple of unpacked boxes pushed to the corner there. To Sam’s delight, Bucky packed what little he owned into dusty cardboard boxes and moved down to Louisiana. The thick rain was more than he was accustomed to and he occasionally missed the low humdrum of the city, but it was much more peaceful here. Most nights, anyways.
I deserve this.
The three word phrase echoed through his mind, a monotone mantra to recite in especially trying moments. Sometimes he thought it was useless trying to convince himself. Other nights Bucky was more forgiving. Healing was a tricky thing, it wasn’t a neat linear line or a simple five stages to move through. For Bucky, it was finally acknowledging wounds that had long run dry and patching up what he could. It was letting people in. But damnit was that hard.
Slowly rising, he padded over to his dusty window to study the misty night sky. Even through the foggy glass he could see the moon peeking out from behind the clouds and silhouettes of the trees. Just by looking outside he could see how thick the air was with humidity.
There’s no point in going back to bed now, anyways.
Bucky decided the best course of action would be to go out on a walk, not particularly caring where to. He really did enjoy his new home despite its modest size and rundown disposition, but he needed to get out. If it were up to him, he’d take a break from existing as himself, but escaping the house was the next best thing.
It was late and he decided he would throw on a thin long sleeve shirt. His heated temperature would argue with such an action, but he was still new to town and wasn’t crazy about showing off his arm. He walked aimlessly, following the streetlights to whatever part of town they would take him. His wandering session had brought him to where all the local bars resided, lightly buzzing with music and chatter that could be heard from outside. He spotted a quiet little bench under a street lamp and decided to take residence there for the time being.
Sighing, he sat down and leaned his head back, taking in the muffled sounds of the bars and people inside them nearby.
“That seat taken?”
Bucky’s body slightly jostled awake. He wasn’t asleep, but he was comfortable enough to start drifting off. He turned his attention to the voice. In the yellow light he could make out a figure of a woman standing in front of him, expectantly waiting for an answer.
“No, you’re fine.” He shifted his body to make more room on the small bench. He didn’t plan on staying for much longer anyways. You sat next to him and his nose was immediately hit with a smell of vanilla perfume.
“You don’t look familiar. You new?” You popped a piece of bubblegum into your mouth. As you spoke, he got a soft scent of alcohol and sugar radiating off of you into his nose. It fluttered around him, enveloping him in the smell of sweets and drinks. To his surprise, it was oddly comforting.
“I just moved down here.”
“You’re sober.”
“Yeah,” he responded, confused by the statement.
“You okay?” you gawked, giving him a concerned look.
“I wasn’t in the mood for a drink.”
“No one comes down to a street of bars at 1 in the morning, doesn’t drink, and is doing alright,” you explained to him. “What’s on your mind?”
Bucky was a bit surprised at how bold you were, just asking a random man his problems. It didn’t change your night, why should you care? It was unexpected, but charming to say the least. It was clear that you were tipsy, but your tone still commanded intent and was laced with sympathy.
“Just a bad dream.”
“Must be some intense dreams you got to come all the way out here,” you replied, blowing a quick bubble with your gum before popping it.
“Something like that.”
You looked at him, waiting for something more. Try as he might, it was hard to ignore your gaze. It begged for more answers and he hated the thought of leaving you unsatisfied.
“I’ve let a lot of people down. That’s all.”
He felt silly confessing to you. You were drunk, and probably didn’t actually care to know. The worst part was that he actually liked telling you, even if in vague terms. It was nice to just talk, even if it was just to a drunk girl he just met.
“You haven’t let me down.”
“You don’t know me,” he stated dryly.
You crossed your legs and propped your head into your hands. Staring out into the nightlife of Louisiana you pondered something for a while. Now what’s going on in that head of yours Bucky wondered, studying how your face contorted and shifted as you thought.
“I know you walk to bars to not get drunk when you’re sad. How many other people know that?” you asked after two minutes of quiet thinking.
Bucky continued to admire you for a second longer, trying to figure out a response. It was correct technically, no one else knew that he was here, but still, you didn’t know him. Not in a way that mattered, not really.
“I don’t know you.”
“Y/N. Call me Y/N.” You stuck out your hand proudly and offered him a toothy grin. Laughing slightly at the overly formal gesture, he shook your hand and responded with his own name.
“See, we’re not strangers now.”
“I guess we’re not, Y/N.”
It was embarrassing to admit, but this was probably the most fun Bucky had had since he moved down there. There were the Wilsons of course, but they had family, they had other life problems. It was great to see them, but it was never for too long.
Bucky saw a light flicker in your eyes as he thought quietly. You went to dig through your bag and pull out a pen, missing its cap. Without question, you took his arm and started to scribble down your number.
“Next time you’re sad, call me instead of coming here. I’m much better company,” you winked.
Before Bucky can go to say anything else, a taxi pulled up to where you two sat.
“That’s my ride. Bye, Bucky,” you waved, giving him one last smile for the night before getting situated in the car.
He didn’t know if it was the alcohol messing with your speech, but the way you sang his name made his heart dance inside his chest. You closed the door as he let out a feeble goodbye, head reeling from the pretty girl he just met.
-
Bucky woke up the next morning and stared at his ceiling for a bit. His mind was still buzzing with the thought of the stranger from the previous night. The soft linger of her perfume, the firm grasp she held around his hand. He couldn’t wave that inviting smile out of his thoughts, but he was sure you didn’t even remember his face. Getting up, he grabbed a piece of pen and paper to scribble down your number before he took a shower.
As the cool water ran against his body, he watched the traces of black ink wash down the drain. He debated calling you the entire time he washed his body, going back and forth between absolutely yes and definitely not. Technically, he got your number on the condition that he’d only call when he was sad, but he didn’t want you to view him as only that; helpless and alone.
“Hello?”
Bucky didn’t think that you’d actually pick up. Hell, he wasn’t even sure if you gave him your actual phone number. He didn’t understand why he called, why he had to do it so soon. Alas, he worked up the nerve to punch in the digits and there you were.
“Uh- hi, it’s Bucky, the guy-”
“Well I’ll be damned, how’ve you been? You get any sleep last night?” You talked to him like you had been friends for years, casually catching up with each other. Your voice rang with excitement and true curiosity as you asked. It didn’t bother him that you interrupted, it just meant you were eager to talk.
“Yeah, yeah, I did. I just wanted to say thank you.”
“Oh, no problem. I wasn’t going to let the cute guy on the bench suffer alone,” you teased. He could hear the smirk in your voice. He felt his face grow a little warm. He cleared his throat in a fruitless attempt to regain his composure before continuing.
“Oh- uh- thank you,” he blubbered out, shy at the sudden flirtatious advance. In the background, he could hear bustling and movement from your end of the line.
“Is now a bad time?”
“I’m on lunch break. I work at Stella’s, but my shift ends at 5. You can pick me up for dinner then.”
“Oh, that’s- wait what?”
“See you then!” Bucky thought he was going to lose it, he could still hear you grinning ear to ear as you clicked the phone to end the call.
Under normal circumstances, his hands would have gone clammy and he would have gone into panic mode. But, not today. A modest smile sat upon his face as he thought about the prospect of a date. By no means was this what he expected, but he was more than happy to get to talk to someone, someone who really wanted to listen.
I deserve this.
-
Bucky’s mind buzzed as he waited in his car at Stella’s parking lot. You had fifteen more minutes until your shift ended, but he wanted to make sure he was on time. He bounced his leg in anticipation, nervously glancing at the bouquet of flowers he bought for the occasion.
Is this too much? Too old fashioned? Maybe it’s a bit corny. What if she’s allergic to flowers? What if she-
He was jostled out of his aimless thinking by a tapping sound coming from his window. He looked over to see your face, eyes bright with wonder and the same toothy smile that lingered in his memory from the other night. He rolled down his window in response to your knocking.
“Hey, cutie.”
“Hi, Y/N. You’re done early.”
“Slow day,” you explained before making your way to the other side of the car and casually hopping into the passenger side. “Where are we going, Buck?”
He almost went to correct you, to tell you that Buck was reserved for very special persons, but as he looked over, he couldn’t muster the strength. The syllable clicked off your tongue so soothingly, like honey dripping down the side of a tree. It was almost like you were eager to say his name, to feel the way it vibrated in your mouth. He decided he’d let you call him Buck.
Your hair was a bit messy from work, but you managed to find the time to swap your diner uniform for a much more comfortable sundress. It clung to your body in all the right areas and flowed in the most elegant manner.
“Are you always this upfront?” he inquired, still adjusting to your boldness.
Bucky swallowed shyly as you crossed your legs, exposing more of your thigh. They looked smooth, glowing from the heat. You rolled down the window on your side to allow some air into the stuffy car, fanning yourself. Bucky forcefully kept his eyes from your cleavage, only slightly exposed, but still a view to admire. He felt a little guilty thinking about you like that. He didn’t mean to be perverse, he just wanted to know what you were like in your most honest form. What it would be like to trace the lines on your body, to slip that pretty little dress off you and-
“Are you always this nervous around women?” you bluntly asked, noticing his admiring gaze that travelled your body.
“Sorry,” he apologized, looking away, “I haven’t been on a date in a while.” Clearing his throat, he handed you the bundle of flowers situated in his lap. You took it in your hands and gave it a quick sniff. It was a simple bouquet, but sweet nonetheless.
“Who said this was a date?”
He felt his mouth go dry. “Oh, sorry, I just-”
“I’m teasing you,” you giggled. “Start driving, loverboy.” You thought it was cute how easily flustered you made him. Sure, he wasn’t a very expressive man, usually wearing a stoic expression, offering only a slight shift in his facial expressions, but you knew how to rile him up. You were having fun, to say the least.
He let out a small relieved laugh before starting the car back up. He liked the way you joked with him like you were childhood bestfriends. You weren’t two strangers, you were two normal people on a date.
“Can I be honest.”
“I’m all ears.”
“I have no idea where to go, I’m still pretty new here,” he confessed.
“Hmm, I have an idea. You’re going to take a left up here.”
The rest of the ride he followed your instructions without much question. He didn’t know where you were taking him, he just knew he was more than happy to follow. You decided to direct him to the scenic route to your mystery destination. Along the way you pointed out where you scraped your knee while learning to ride a bike. The park where you had your first kiss. The now abandoned coffee place where you had your first break up.
You were an open book to Bucky, indulging him into the crevices of your life. He’d never met someone so telling, so honest in his life. He knew so much about you while still understanding so little. He wondered, maybe did you fall from the sky, or spring from the Earth? Or maybe you were just a person who happened to be special and he was a man lucky to accidentally cross paths with you.
“I’ve been talking this whole ride, tell me about yourself. What’s your deal?”
“I don’t have a deal,” he answered coolly.
“No family? No friends? Do you sit and stare at the wall all day?”
“Pretty much.”
“You’re lucky you’re cute, Buck, because you sure are boring as hell,” you coyly mock. He smiled in spite of himself.
“Well,” he trailed off. He wanted you to know him, he wanted to talk to a person who seemed interested in him. Not the Winter Soldier, not Captain America’s best friend, but James Buchanan Barnes. He hadn’t said anything untrue to you, but he felt like hiding himself was like lying to you and that was the last thing he wanted to do.
“I have a little sister.” You waited for him to further continue, sticking your hand out the window to feel the breeze between the fingers as he drove. “Rebecca. She’s a sweet kid.”
You realized that was as much as he would indulge you for the moment. “That’s a pretty name.” He could hear you smiling once again. He admired that quirk of yours.
“I moved down here about two weeks ago. I’m friends with the Wilson’s. They’re good people.”
“Ain’t it a small world, I used to babysit for Sarah. I’ve been friends with them ever since. You do anything for work?” you asked, now playing with the petals of the bouquet in your hand.
“I’m a mechanic.” That wasn’t false, so he didn’t mind telling you. He decided to take up work at a local car shop. It didn’t pay much, but it was honest work and his boss mostly let him do his own thing.
“Is that where you got the fancy metal arm from?” Your eyes trace over the gold detailing of his appendage as he used it to grip the steering wheel.
Bucky’s eyes widened. With the heat of Louisiana combined with recent stress, he’d forgotten to wear something that would cover up his metal arm when leaving the house. He quickly shot his eyes to see it gleaming in the sunlight before refocusing on the road.
“Oh, this old thing. You like it?” There was no use in denying it, so he thought he should try to play it off. His face remained nonchalant but panic began to settle in his stomach. She thinks I’m a freak. She thinks it’s weird. Fuck.
“I think it looks handsome on you.”
Bucky could feel his weariness begin to melt away and warmth take its place. It was silly, but he felt like a schoolboy all over again. You were wonder, everything that he wasn’t, everything that he used to be; open, outgoing, and trusting.
“You’re more interesting than you lead on, Bucky. Turn into the next driveway.”
Following your instructions he pulled into a driveway of gravel road. A cute little house appeared, the next one not for another mile. The garden situated in the front was decorated with flowers and fauna of all sorts.
“Is this your house?” he asked, knowing the answer.
“She needs a new coat of paint, but she’s all mine.”
“You don’t know me. Why are you letting me in your house?”
“You’re a friend of the Wilson’s, that’s enough to trust you.”
“You’re insane.”
“And yet you’re still here, Buck. C’mon,” you beckoned him out of the car. For a moment, he stood to admire the view of your house before you took a hold of his hand to pull him along inside. Your skin was soft and warm against his, just like he remembered it from the other night. You arrived at your porch and began to take out your keys.
What am I doing here?
It was a wondrous feeling to be carried along by you, but he couldn’t keep playing pretend. You were too loving to have to deal with his mess. He’d eventually tell you who he was and he’d understood you’d want to run, to never see him again. It was fun while it lasted, but reality settled in at one point or another.
“I think I should go,” he said flatly.
“But we just got here,” you frowned, turning around from the door to face him. “We were going to make some of my homemade bread.”
“You’re very sweet and you’re really pretty, but I come with a lot of baggage.”
“Who said I don’t?”
“It’s-,” he sighed. He wanted to explain everything, to make it make sense. But words were his weakness and he would hate to sadden those curious pair of eyes in front of him. He could tell you the whole truth and you’d be mortified or he could lie and live with the guilt of deceiving you. “It’s complicated.”
You looked down dejectedly at your bouquet, brushing your thumb mindlessly against the stem of the flowers. “Bucky, I know,” you mumbled.
“I don’t think you do.”
“At first I thought it was a coincidence. When I first saw you, I thought your face looked a bit old-fashioned kind of handsome, but some people are like that. I questioned it more when I noticed the metal arm, but some people have prosthetics.”
It was coming. He could feel the rejection about to roll off your tongue. You knew about his past and all the nasty things that came with it. Monster. Liar. Why didn’t you tell me? Why did you lead me on? Don’t talk to me. Please leave, I’m scared. His heart sunk to the pit of his stomach as he awaited for you to finish the final blow.
“Then you said you were friends with the Wilson’s and I knew. You’re Sergeant James ‘Bucky’ Barnes. I know I’m not much like the woman of the 40s and I’m just a small town girl and you’re a hero-”
“You think I’m a hero?” Out of all the endings to this conversation that was not the one he was prepared for. Him? A hero? He never thought of himself that way and he couldn’t even fathom someone thinking that about him.
“I’m friends with the Wilson’s, Sam’s told me a lot about you. You’ve saved so many lives, you’ve lived such a fascinating life. Hell, I wouldn’t have summoned the courage to walk up to you if I knew you were some big shot,” you laughed lightly. It was strange to be talking to a piece of history, a man you’ve heard so much about but never seen in the flesh. “But, in the short time I’ve known you, you seem like a real sweet guy. Who the hell even brings flowers to dates anymore? That’s adorable.”
This was a lot of new information to process at once for the both of you. Bucky now knew you knew. You had only realized who he was ten minutes ago. It was a lot to say the least. By this time, he would have expected to have been driving home after a well earned scolding. What the hell was happening? And more importantly, was that all you knew.
“Then you know about the Winter Soldier?” He held his breath awaiting your response.
You replied with a silent nod, looking up from your collection of flowers and into his troubled blue eyes. You’d never felt so small than in that moment. You wouldn’t have dragged him around town if you would’ve known who he was. Who were you? Just some small town girl pestering the life out of this poor man who was too nice to say no. You were way in over your head, you knew it once you realized, but he was just too endearing to let slip away.
Bucky clung onto every word you’d spoken, he seemed to listen to every sound you made intently. He genuinely cared about what you had to say. Sure, he had his walls up, but he was gentle underneath. The way his face softened when he spoke of his sister and the Wilson’s was enough to make a frozen heart thaw.
“And that doesn’t bother you?” His voice was even, but his thoughts were scrambling all over the place.
“I just invited you into my house as a single woman who lives in bumble-fuck nowhere, so I’d say no, it doesn’t bother me. You’re Bucky, not him.”
He let out a small laugh, relief entering his body.
“If you’re still up for it, I have lemonade inside too,” you offered quietly, a hopeful smile on your face.
It’d be a lot easier to say no, to go back home. It’d be a lot less risky to just turn around and forget the past few hours. But it’d be so much more lonely. He could return to the cold floor of his house and spend many more restless nights in his lonesome.
Or, he could try something new. Something that was tender and wore vanilla perfume. Something that spoke fervently and had every type of flower springing out of her front yard. Someone with warm hands and the prettiest smile he’d ever had the pleasure of seeing.
I deserve this.
“That sounds nice,” he smiled shyly.
“Good,” you grinned back. You pushed open your door and took him by the hand to lead him into the house.
Bucky was an awful baker, but he had the spirit. Flour would always end up more on his clothing than into the pan. He seemed to knead the dough as if he were attacking it and he didn’t really understand what yeast was. But he was the perfect baking partner. He’d see you work and would nod intently with deep focus as you mixed together the ingredients. He was eager to make the lemonade (by making that meant him cutting the lemons and measuring the amount of sugar needed with his heart) and was the perfect taste tester.
“This is the best bread I’ve ever tasted. You’ve really outdone yourself with this one, Buck.”
“You’re just saying that.”
“Maybe.” You couldn’t hold back your smile. Through the many trials and tribulations, you managed to make some alright food. The bread was mediocre at best, but you had never had so much fun making it.
Liking you came so easy to Bucky. He liked the way you lilted his name and how gentle your eyes were. He’d only known you for less than 24 hours, but already felt like he was safe with you. For the rest of the date, he couldn’t shake that warm feeling that gathered inside his chest every time you smiled at him.
Maybe this wasn’t how he imagined his relationship would start, but he wouldn’t have had it any other way.

You promptly followed Arianna to the back, practically stepping on her heels.
"You're WRONG about him, Arianna. He's too smart for this, for me-- for us," You warned. "AND he works for the MAYOR. Do you really want to go to prison when he figures out our game?!"
"See but THAT'S how much faith I have in you babe," She didn't even hesitate to shut you down. "I know you would never get us in trouble..." She wrapped an arm around you.
"...EVER," The arm going around your shoulder was soon pushing you back out into the restaurant, where a now composed Rafael sat, watching you intensely.
"....What the fuck was that?" He said in an eerily calm voice.
"W-What are you talking abo--" You tried to speak but he immediately jumped over you in an angry voice.
"What the FUCK, was that?!" He asked again, then proceeded to talk not waiting for you to answer.
"I have never, EVER spoken ANYTHING about my father out loud. To ANYONE. I have spent my entire adult LIFE making sure of it. And here 30 minutes with you and I'm making a flippant comment about my childhood trauma?!" His fist pounded the bar.
"What, the fuck...did you do to me?" he growled.
Alright, keep calm. You had this.
"What did I DO to you?" You snorted, like it was the stupidest question in the world.
"Rafael 10 minutes ago you didn't even BELIEVE in the science, and now all of a sudden I put a SPELL on you? Are you out of your mind?!" You rolled your eyes with a dismissive laugh, clearly agitating him more. People tended to be easier to read when they became emotional, and certainly easier to manipulate.
"Then how do you explain it, hmm?" He licked his lips, signs of disgust. God you hated this.
"Gee, I don't know Rafael. You ever stop to think maybe it was something MORE than science, some kind of different 'voodoo'?!"
"Like what...?" He blinked at you, trying to figure out what you were implying.
"Something about you just makes me feel...safe," You placed your hand over his once more, playing with the hair on his knuckles.
"Look, I understand why you're upset. But-- you know, it's not only you who's vulnerable right now," You lowered your voice into a soft, soothing tone.
"You know, I've never told anyone else about me and Ari before," you bit your lip and looked at the floor. Sure you hadn't, except every other guy Ari had made you scam.
"You ever think that's why you just blurted out stuff about your dad? Maybe that we had a connection that was bigger than some emotional reading bullshit?" Gaslighting was always a great way to knock someone down real quick.
You saw Rafael's anger dissipate from his face; you watched as his eyes filled with hope. You knew you were preying on his very obvious need for acceptance and affection, and you hated yourself for it. 
"I...well, maybe..." he rubbed the back of his neck, you saw the logical side of him fighting with his emotional side, trying to remind him that 'soulmates' or 'connections' didn't actually exist. And you watched it lose, as a beautiful smile crawled across his lips.
"Maybe you're right," He now took both your hands, and looked deep into your eyes. Right then you could see every little bit of trauma, hurt, anguish, wanting, all being pushed down by the growing look of hope, and security. And suddenly, you couldn't do it anymore.
"No, I'm not," you dropped his hands, unable to look at him anymore.
"Wh-What? Seriously?" He shook his head in utter disbelief, trying to figure out how the hell you were so hot and cold from one second to the next.
"Look just, take this," You scribbled on a check and handed it to him. "Go pay at the register, and get out of here. And don't come back,"
"What the fu-- are you on something?" he stared at the check, then you, then the sky like he was looking for answers.
"Look, I'm--I'm begging you, Rafael. Walk out of here RIGHT NOW, before Arianna comes out here," you almost whispered, praying she wasn't listening.
"....Why do you not want--"
"Just, forget it. Please, go. PLEASE," Your voice was shaking, tears lined your eyes. You had literally never been this unhinged emotionally in front of someone other than Arianna before, EVER.
"I..." Rafael was clearly shocked and disturbed by what was unfolding, but he didn't want to see you like this. You could see him backing off because he pitied you, he felt sorry for whatever inner turmoil was happening with you, even if he didn't understand it. He put his hands up and walked to the register, pay and give you one last sad look before disappearing into the night.
You felt your legs shaking, your heart beating outside of your chest. You had NEVER let Arianna down before, ever. You had never just...broken, like that. Lying was your LIFE. You barely had a moment to process what just happened before Arianna came storming out from the kitchen.
"What the HELL, Y/N? Where did he go?!"
"H-He caught on, Ari," you looked at the ground, terrified to meet her eyes.
"HOW is that possible, you never--"
You jumped over her words immediately, defensively yelling at her:
"I DON'T KNOW, okay?! He--He came from the bathroom all freaked the fuck out because he had literally never told ANYONE about his dad, and then he-- he accused me of DOING something to him! Like I was a witch or something!" Well, you weren't lying. Not like she could've been able to tell, like she said she didn't have your skills. 
"He wouldn't let me say ANYTHING. He just grabbed his check and stormed out of here! I didn't have TIME to work him over, okay? I'm sorry. I failed you," The tears around your eyes now dripped down your cheeks, little did Ari know they weren't for her. 
"Aw...honey," Arianna's anger vanished, you knew she couldn't stand to see you cry. She wrapped her arms around you and coddled you like a mom to a toddler.
"I know, you tried your best. And I know it must've been hard, giving up your abogado like that," she stroked your hair. 
"You'd just better pray we find another benefactor, FAST" her strokes turned into her acrylic nails running down your face, mildly aggressively. You looked into her eyes, she knew something had happened. She didn't know what and she would never accuse you, but you knew she knew. She always knew.
"I'm on it," You quickly tried to get away from her. "I promise,"
------
The night wrapped up pretty routinely, and the evening went about the same. The next day, you and Ari were walking up the subway towards Fazzoli's when you saw him-- Rafael was waiting, discreetly. Well, discreetly to him anyway.
"I uh-- You know what I forgot to make change before we left, I'm gonna hit the bodega real quick. I'll meet you inside, okay?" You quickly moved in front of Arianna as you talked, praying to God she hadn't noticed him. Luckily, she was thoroughly engrossed in a game of CANDY CRUSH.
"Mmmkay," She nodded and waved you off, not looking up from her phone.
As soon as she was inside, you walked straight up to Rafael and pulled him around the corner into an alleyway.
"What did I say?!" You hissed.
"Well first of all, this is my favorite restaurant, and I was here first, so you're not gonna 'ban' me from eating here," he stated. "And second, you need to tell me what happened last night,"
"No I don't have to tell you anything," you scoffed.
"But you want to,"
"HOW do you know that? You don't know that," you crossed your arms and rolled your eyes, signaling him to back off.
"Then what was that insane Dr. Jekyl/Mr. Hyde act? One second you're batting your eyes at me and the next you're literally throwing me out! Are you nuts?"
"YES. Yes, I am unhinged and a psychopath, Rafael. Clearly. So you need to--to stay away from me," You huffed and turned to leave, but he grabbed your arm.
"I was right last night, wasn't I? That's why you freaked out,"
"...What are you talking about?" You stopped and turned slowly to face him again.
"You're not the only one who can google," he pulled out his phone and began reading an article he had found.
"...Behavioral scientists are hesitant to teach micro-expression reading to the masses, as it can be used for nefarious purposes,"
Your face fell-- You were right, he WAS too smart for you.
"People with these skills can easily manipulate any sort of information out of anyone, if trained properly," He continued, looking you straight in the eyes.
"I...Um.." Jesus Christ this had never happened to you before-- you literally COULD NOT lie to him.
"YES, okay? Yes, I manipulated you last night, are you happy?" You threw your arms up, starting to walk away again.
"No, I'm not! I wanna know why," He jumped in front of you preventing you from leaving the alley.
"Why? You wanna know-- does it matter?" You tried moving past him, but he wasn't budging.
"YES, it matters! For fuck's sake Y/N you-- you had me thinking-- I..." He trailed off, you saw the pain in his eyes. He had actually started to fall for you, and you had crushed him.
"Because it's what we do, okay?" You sighed. "It's not personal,"
"NOT personal? What 'we' do? What, you and Arianna?" he narrowed his eyes.
"Yeah, but you don't understand ok? We, we lived in our CAR, Rafael. We didn't eat for WEEKS at a time, we started going through garbage like actual rats,"
"And then I found this book, and I studied it, and I just tried it ONCE--Just for a meal," you looked up, trying not to get emotional.
"And Arianna latched on to it. HARD," you looked everywhere but Rafael's eyes.
"She--She grabbed anything she could with information on micro-expressions, she quizzed me, she coached me-- she helped me," Finally, you let yourself look at him.
"So you could help her," he looked at you seriously.
"So I could help US," you argued.
"In six months we had enough money for a nice little studio apartment in the Bronx and a full refrigerator!" you heard yourself defending you and Arianna's life together, but saying it out loud you didn't know how much you believed it yourself anymore.
"...And what exactly do you do," His words made you shift uncomfortably on your heels.
"Y/N....." ," He lowered his voice, emphasizing his seriousness.
"I...we...Arianna picks a target, someone who's in the public eye and has money. and I...sweet talk them," you glared holes into the ground.
"...And then I get something out of them, something they don't want the public to know, that they don't want ANYONE to know," You could literally feel how these people must have felt because this was the last thing that you ever wanted Rafael to know, for anyone to know.
"...And she finds out more information about it and--"
"And shakes them down," He finished your sentence, you could hear the disgust in his mouth.
"Look I'm sorry, okay?" Your voice shook a bit.
"I know you are," He stepped closer to you.
"....Okay? Just like that? You're just gonna believe a professional liar?" you half laughed, rolling your eyes.
"Yeah, because if you really wanted to-- you wouldn't have kicked me out last night," a very small micro smile came across.
"I--Yeah, well um-- I...I couldn't," you bit your lip.
"Which makes me think you don't ever really like doing it at all, do you?" he looked at you with knowing eyes.
You shifted uncomfortably, not willing to verbally agree.
"So why do you let Arianna manipulate YOU?"
"Because she's all I have, Rafael!" You cried.
"She's literally the only person I have. It's been me and her against the world since high school, I can't...I can't just, abandon her! I can't let us starve,"
"You have honest jobs now, do you not?"
"Yeah I know, that's why I was pissed she asked me to do you-- I mean, use you," you bit your lip over your Freudian slip. 
"She KNEW I was in love with you, and she just--" you stopped talking, noticing a smirk spreading across his face.
"I'm sorry, what?" He asked you with a shocked expression. You looked at him in confusion, then realized you had just spoken without thinking.
"I--It's a figure of speech. Like, "oh my god I'm so in love with Justin Beiber I could just die","
"...Don't like being compared to the Beebz like that but okay," he chuckled.
"Just...shut up. She knew I LIKED you, and she-- she just-- PERVERTED it," you spit out the words, your anger bubbling up. You knew from the moment he caught you sniffing his glass that you and him had something pure, and she just made it into something dirty, something evil.
"So...what EXACTLY happened, last night Y/N?" He stepped even closer, lowering his voice but his tone was soft not serious.
"I...You...You came in, and--everything was fine. It was just me, and-- and you, and we were--" You waved your hands, trying to be casual about it, but he grabbed them and made you look directly at him.
"...It was real," you whispered.
"And THEN, Arianna started telling me that I needed something out of you," your face went red again. "That-- that she hadn't 'planned' on using you, or me, but when she found out you were the ADA she just-- snapped," you went on again, feeling your anger rise again.
"She thought that she could use my actual feelings for you to get what she wanted, and I played along," you folded your arms, ashamed of yourself. You looked away, but Rafael's hand cupped your chin and turned you back to him.
"...But you didn't,"
"I COULDN'T," you could barely speak, tears choked your throat. Suddenly, feeling very uncomfortable having any kind of kindness being shown to you right now, you once again backed away from Rafael and paced around the alleyway.
"I...you don't get it. Lying is my THING. And--And usually okay maybe I have moral qualms about seducing dudes and exploiting them but I get over it, and I do it anyway!" You shook your hands into the air.
"B-B-But you, with you--your stupid eyes, god dammit those eyes!" you paced faster, shaking your head. Those fucking eyes.
"These eyes?" He pointed to his eyes, a very small smirk on his face.
"This isn't funny, okay? You--You made me betray my BEST friend," you stopped and stared into those eyes.
"With my eyes," he couldn't stop a smile.
"YES! I-I gave you that sappy load of bullshit about us having a 'connection', because I knew that was exactly what you wanted, what you   ," you looked away in shame.
"Wow..." Rafael shifted uncomfortably, you did know what you were doing.
"A-And you just, you ate it up! YOU, the most level headed, narcissistic, pessimistic lawyer, you just-- believed me," you almost laughed, the thought was actually unbelievable.
"And you were so happy," you added sadly, feeling the guilt rise in your gut.
"...And I think I started to believe it myself. And then I just...I couldn't--" You walked back up to him, this time taking his face in your hands.
"With everyone else I am a shark, but with you I just felt...helpless," you pressed your forehead to his for a brief moment, an intimate moment to say goodbye.
"So I sent you away. And I told you to stay away!" You literally pushed him away, gesturing out of the alley way.
"Why send me away though?"
"Because Arianna will KNOW now,"
"So? Let her know," he scoffed.
"NO," You stepped back into his face, trying to show him how serious you were.
"She's given up on you, because I told her you figured us out,"
"And she bought that?" he raised an eyebrow.
"Well not figured figured out, just that you knew something wasn't right and we couldn't risk going to prison or something,"
"But if she knows that I just...let you go, she'll start digging on her own," your eyes grew wide with fear for him.
"And she will dig until she finds something. Something other than 'daddy issues'," you rolled your eyes.
"...And you think she'll find something?" he asked.
".... You're really telling me you don't have ANY skeletons in your closet, counselor?" now you raised an eyebrow.
"...I'm not leaving you alone with her," he took your hands again.
"Oh come on, I told you. She's my PERSON, she's not gonna hurt me. I don't need protection from her," you rolled your eyes, the thought of being afraid of Arianna was ridiculous. Kind of.
"That doesn't mean I won't fight for you," he touched your face.
"Raf please--" you pleaded once more.
"Give me your phone," he ordered, and you obliged.
"Wha--Okay..."
He took it and programmed his number into it, then handed it back to you.
"Arianna is NOT the only person you have now," he took your hand and kissed the back of your knuckles, before winking and walking away.
...What just happened?

15x08: Our Father, Who Aren’t In Heaven
Then:
Tumblr media
Fighting the good fight since 2010
Now:
At the Lucky Elephant Casino, God’s knocking back fruity drinks, playing slots, and murdering everyone around him. Things don’t look so fun in Chuck-land. 
Meanwhile, Eileen is living her best new life hunting a werewolf. She’s kicking butt but has a temporary setback when Sam shows up. She shoves him out of the way to finish the job. She asks Sam if he’s following her. MAYBE he’s being a little overprotective, but c’mon, he did just bring her back from the dead. I’m guessing he’d like to keep her on the side of the living a little longer than a week or two.
Tumblr media
Later at the bunker, they’re eating their respective burger (Eileen) and salad (Sam), and Dean walks in with the demon tablet. He’s hoping the tablet will reveal a weak spot with God. They’re going to need Donatello!
Tumblr media
Cas knock’s on Donny’s door. Hmm, I see, divorced husbands still communicating about the case and Cas still doing things for the cause. 
Donatello comes back to the bunker, but isn’t happy about it. He gets to work eating chicken wings and translating the tablet again. Sam, Dean, and Cas casually hang out in the library and sneak concerned looks towards the prophet.
Tumblr media
Donny finds some footnotes written by Metatron about God’s secret fear that he only shared with “his favorite.” Lucifer was already locked away by the time the tablets were written. He must mean Michael. The problem with finding Michael is that he’s locked away in the Cage. Donatello starts to freak out over how overly dramatic TFW’s lives are but then passes out in a chair. He comes to --but it’s Chuck this time communicating directly through his prophet. He tells them to leave it alone. Then he threatens all the women in their lives if they don’t (and I just hate/love this because this calls back to early SPN so much when the women died for all their man-pain.)
They tell Donatello to go home. Then they all decide (Cas reluctantly) to go to Hell to find Michael. Dean sarcastically tells Cas that he can “stay here” at the bunker. And I can’t for the life of me find the post now, but whoever made a post of Dean increasingly going from sarcasm to flat out begging for Cas to stay at the bunker is my hero. 
In the bunker’s kitchen, they cast the same spell Rowena used to get Cas and Belphagor to Hell before. Dean cuts his hand as part of the spell (something he’s done a thousand times before) and Cas takes the time to heal him (but doesn’t touch him like he normally does) and it takes so much of him to do it. I’m just going to sit here quietly for a bit before proceeding. 
Tumblr media
Once in Hell, Cas leads the way until they run into a bunch of badass lady demons that completely kick their asses. Well, they do until a very familiar voice bellows, “STOP!”
It’s ROWENA!!! 
She’s now Queen of Hell. She’s also posturing up a storm. Ah. They tell her they want to lock up Chuck and they’re looking for Michael. She tells them he could be anywhere. The Cage opened just like the rest of the doors in Hell. She sends her demon minions to find Michael. 
Back at the bunker, Eileen is watching over the spell, and she gets a call from Sue, another hunter. She needs help with a vamp nest. Eileen agrees to help as soon as she’s done helping TFW. 
In Hell, TFW meets with Rowena in her throne room. She tells Sam that killing her was a good thing. She’s queen! Then she asks him to get her another drink (!) so she can have a little therapy time with the other two clowns. She tells them to “fix it” because there’s no reconciliation in death. A demon comes in to inform them that Michael “is nowhere to be found.”
For Perfect Framing Science:
Tumblr media
Actually, he can be found at Jaci’s Red Wagon diner. It seems that Adam and Michael are good buds and Adam’s currently enjoying his first burger in ten years. 
Dean checks in with Donatello just one more leeeetle time to see if he’s gotten any Chuck-adjacent flashes. Just when you think you’re out, yadda yadda yadda… He THEN checks in with Sam about Eileen. She is FINE, Dean, they have “an agreement.” Dean picks up on Sam’s waffling, and tells Sam that she fits the parameters of a potential partner: she knows the life, plus she’s hot. That’s way better than the life Sam tried to build with Amelia, a bag of limes, and a dog. This conversation is also notable for Dean’s admission that he’d been in a very dark place not long ago but he’s climbing out of it now.
At the diner, Adam continues to chill with Michael and contemplate the future when Lilith arrives. 
Tumblr media
She’s there to bring Michael to Chuck. “I’m not accustomed to being fetched,” Michael says coldly. It looks like things are headed towards fisticuffs when Michael just…burns her to ash right there. Ah, archangels. (Side note: I rewatched this section with the sound off while gathering images and watching her performance is every bit as engaging. I’ll miss you, scrunchy-nose Lilith.)
Donatello has a vision and sees Michael’s spiteful smiting (smiteful?). He calls Dean with Michael’s location. He’s in Cairo! Time for Dean to hop on a plane and hold Cas’s hand nervously the entire time… I’m ready for an airplane destiel fic episode!
Tumblr media
Cas has an alternate, non-hand-holding suggestion. He’ll pray to Michael instead. In the quiet of an upstairs corner of the bunker, next to a REAL and also METAPHORICAL CHESS SET, Cas characterizes their last meeting as “unpleasant” and asks to meet up. “I’m not your enemy anymore. Now we all have the same enemy. God himself.”
Mmmkay, compelling words. Michael meets Cas in a warehouse. He remembers Cas. “You called me assbutt and set me on fire.” LOL, classic. Cas faces Michael stoically and lights a circle of holy oil around him. That’s the Winchester’s cue to enter and they do so with STYLE.
Tumblr media
DAMN!
Dean presents a set of warded cuffs for Michael’s consideration. There’s clearly only one way out of the circle of fire.
For Check out the Curtains Made of Chains SO PRETTY Science:
Tumblr media
Michael is twenty-five shades of pissed off at being confined. In the bunker he accuses the Winchesters of abandoning their brother and then shocks them all by flashing Adam back in control. 
Tumblr media
Adam seems much more chill than Michael and reveals that he and the archangel only had each other in the cage so they came to an agreement. Dean, who only recently stopped dragging himself around in a post-Michael traumatic haze, is gobsmacked that Michael’s letting Adam walk and talk. He tells Adam that there’s nothing they can say to fix what they did by leaving him in the cage. “How about ‘I’m sorry?’” Adam suggests.
Tumblr media
Michael wrests back control and we go back to Chuck talk. Team Free Will attempts to briefly explain that Chuck isn’t trying to usher in “boring” paradise. Instead, Michael’s dad would rather see everybody suffer, including Michael.
Adam pops back behind the helm and advises them to stop their paltry attempt at convincing Michael of Chuck’s perfidy. On his (their) own, Adam unpacks the situation. He doesn’t forgive the Winchesters for what they did, but he does think they’re operating from good intentions. I don’t remember where I saw this online, but somebody posted that they have never liked Adam more than in this episode. I completely agree! There’s a lovely amount of complexity and growth hinted at through this performance.
Tumblr media
Michael finds it hard to shake off a near-eternity of being God’s favored son. God is “having a mid-eternity crisis,” Adam suggests. Maybe Michael should at least entertain the possibility that Chuck isn’t on the up-and-up. Michael doesn’t want to doubt his father. “You still care about that after he left you in the cage?” Adam asks.
Meanwhile, Eileen’s friend Sue calls again. She’s ready to move on the vamps and needs backup NOW. When Eileen hesitates, Sue needles her about having to ask for permission. Eileen rises to Sue’s barb and agrees to meet up. The camera tumbles, Sue swears, and Eileen acts immediately as the call ends. She races to Sam’s room and fills him in on her friend’s perilous situation. Together, they run off to give Sue backup. (I love how this scene both shows Eileen’s need to assert her own independence and her absolute trust and pragmatism in getting Sam to back her up.) 
Tumblr media
Cas heads in to speak with Adam/Michael. Michael is still not on board the fight-Chuck train. Cas responds with sass, as is his custom. “I never liked you. I thought you were too haughty. Too…to paraphrase a friend, you had an entire oak tree shoved up your ass.” 
Tumblr media
Now Cas finds him pitiable. Michael isn’t God’s favorite. He’s just a tiny part of Chuck’s favorite soap opera. DAMN, Cas. 
Cas goes even further, telling Michael that Lucifer was the smart one all along, and Michael SNAPS. He flips Cas over the table and gets him in a headlock. Cas struggles, and manages to lock both his hands on Michael’s temples. It’s brain zapping time! Even an archangel is no match for Cas’s mind mojo, and Cas dumps a clip show of Chuck being a dick writer into Michael’s head. 
Later, Cas decompresses alone in the kitchen. Dean arrives, then suggests that Cas might have misjudged the situation and gone too far with Michael. D E A N. Before Cas left, Michael essentially said, “Leave. Get out. I want you dead.” We’ve all been in agony for several days now over the parallels between this line and what Cas thinks he’s getting from Dean and AAAAUGH THE SWEET PAIN OF IT. “We didn’t bond,” Cas summarizes. If you need me, I’ll be hunched in this burning dumpster, muttering about profound bonds. 
Tumblr media
The bunker rattles, and they race to Michael’s room. He greets them with, “God lied to me.” He gave everything for Chuck, but it turns out he’s not even unique across the multiverse if there are other Michaels out there. 
Sam and Eileen arrive at the hunt and discover abandoned vehicles. Sam’s suspicion bone is tingling, but then Sue shows up. She’s got this swagger, so Boris and I immediately assume she’s been turned into a vamp because we’ve been watching this show since forever. Uh, Sue’s not a vamp. She’s Chuck! Or…you know, Chuck’s her! [Admiral Ackbar voice] It’s a trap!
Michael agrees to help Team Free Will. He pulls out a slip of paper with a spell on it that can contain Chuck just like it contained Amara. All they need is myrrh, cassia, rock-rose, and the nectar of a leviathan blossom. It’s a flower that grows in Purgatory. Michael opens up a rift-style door with the snap of his fingers.
Tumblr media
The door will stay open for twelve hours. Dean uncuffs Michael/Adam and apologizes for what happened to his half brother. Adam smiles sadly and wishes them luck in their Chuck-fighting endeavors. After he/they leave, Cas and Dean turn towards the glowing rift. It’s Purgatory time, baby! And you know what they say about Purgatory. It’s the perfect place to work out your emotions in a friendly, non-deadly environment!
Tumblr media
Quotingmoon in Purgatory:
There’s a crack in his invincibility shield
When I go crazy again, just shoot me
Usually I enjoy our little process. I toss something at you guys and you slam it right back. It’s fun! Like tennis! With monsters
What am I picking up from you two? A wee tif? Tell your Auntie Rowena
Why would he send you, a demon, a speck of infernal bile?
Oh, I didn’t come to beg
Since when do we get what we deserve?

Rock the Boat
Word Count: 3k
Warnings: Sexual Content (18+)
Written By: @kumkaniudaku
ANYWHERE MASTER POST
Tumblr media
Recommended Listening: Rock the Boat x Aaliyah
A second wake up didn’t result in another round, but it did provide needed rest for the busy wife and mother. Chadwick had crawled out of bed long before Tasha for a run along the island’s beach, leaving his lover to wake on her own time. For months on end, she was up at the first sign of daybreak, leading the charge to have everyone dressed and prepared for the day’s events before taking a second to compose herself. The need for relaxation was obviously present in the days leading up to the trip when she would trudge to bed and pass out in a heap at night. So for as long as she needed to sleep, he was willing to grant her that space.
By the time she sauntered out of the villa into the patio space, she was buzzing with renewed energy and a faint glow of sexual satisfaction.
“Well damn, if I’d have known you’d come out looking like that, I would’ve decided to have you for breakfast instead.”
Chadwick took in Tasha’s multicolor monokini and all it’s cutouts through her sheer cover-up as she made her way to his spot at the small table beside the pool. The front of her bathing suit presented her stomach to the world, still soft from carrying two children, but featuring more definition than she’d been accustomed to since Noah was born. In the back, the high cut design got a run for its money against her wide hips, becoming more of a thong than its original intention.
With his arms outstretched, Chadwick welcomed Tasha into his lap to pull her against his clothed chest and press kisses wherever bare skin greeted him. His lips against her shoulders sent a chill through her body that starkly contrasted the tropical heat around them.
“You heard what Micah said last night,” she giggled as she squirmed in his arms. “Don’t bring home any more babies.”
Chadwick chuckled at CoCo’s spot-on imitation of their oldest, “Where does she get this stuff from?”
“Probably my mama and aunties. They don’t make her go to sleep over there and she soaks in everything they say like a sponge.”
“Is that why she calls everybody honey now like she’s 65?”
“More than likely,” she laughed, recalling the time Micah calmly asked for more oatmeal in her bowl one morning before adding a southern ‘honey’ to the sentence for emphasis. At nearly seven years old, she’d only lived in Southern California, yet carried around the grace of a Southern Belle several years her senior.
“Anyway, what’s all this? I am starving!”
“This, my love, is the honeymoon special. That’s not what Niha called it, but I can’t remember so I renamed it.”
“Clever,” she laughed before sneaking a kiss to his cheek.
Peeling back the plate covers unleashed the perfect aromas of local delicacies and American fusions of traditional breakfast items that had Tasha’s mouth watering at first glance. She hadn’t realized how hungry she was while she was being treated to orgasm after orgasm. Now she was almost ravenous as she scrambled to find a fork and knife to dig in.
In the alone time, they’d been granted, Chadwick was able to take in the scope of his wife. It wasn’t that he didn’t know she was beautiful. That was obvious. It was the little nuances of her movements that kept him intrigued.
While he watched the apples of her cheeks rise in satisfaction as she enjoyed her meal, he contemplated sharing a piece of life-altering information that he had been sitting on.
“I talked to Angelique,” he casually introduced, causing his wife to slow down long enough to look at him over her shoulder. “She gave me some advice about our plan if you wanna hear it.”
Chadwick was met with silence before Tasha stood to transition from his lap to the seat across from him.
“Mmmkay. Go ahead.”
“Well, she said that it’s great that we want to do this and thinks we have a great chance of being approved.”
“But,” CoCo interjected. There had been nothing but good news followed by caveats from the moment they decided to embark on this journey. A ‘but’ was always expected at this point.
“But, we’ll need to seriously consider a few things.”
“We’ve been considering things for months. What else is there to consider?”
“Nothing major, baby. Just a few details like the size of the house, whether we want to do an open or closed situation, or if we should foster instead.”
“Let’s start with the size of the house.” The mood had clearly begun to sour as Tasha placed her utensils down in front of her to clasp her fingers and place them underneath her chin.
“She recommends shifting the kids around to make space for one more, but I recommend us moving altogether. Wait,” he interjected just as she opened her mouth to counter. “Hear me out. We can afford to move to somewhere down South. It’s cheaper, we’d be closer to our parents as they get up in age, and both of us are still able to work with no interruption to what we do now.”
“Okay, I can’t argue with you there. I still would rather adopt a small child though.”
“And we can do that. But, please, give fostering some thought. We could really help a kid. Not too old of course, but maybe around 8 or 9?”
“Aaron…”
“Think about it, baby. We don’t need to answer right now. Enjoy paradise and we’ll talk about it later. Deal?”
Finding it counterintuitive to further the touchy conversation while so much beauty and wonder surrounded them, CoCo used the napkin in her lap as her literal white flag and surrendered. There were still three days left to enjoy each other with no distractions and neither Chad or CoCo was willing to spoil it with problems from life back home.
“Alright, Pookie, you have complete control of my body and my time for the next three days. What we gettin’ into?”
“Complete control of your body and your time, huh?”
Their eyes met in equally provocative glances that still carried the embers of the flame ignited mere inches from their current positions.
Biting her lip, CoCo made a of show leaning across the table to address her husband. Her arms purposely pressed against her breasts to give Chadwick a full view of her cleavage spilling out of her bathing suit. Restraint kept his hands planted around his glass of orange juice, but his eyes were given permission to roam as they saw fit.
“Especially my body. Wherever…”
“Whenever,” he finished before letting his eyes travel to meet her dark brown orbs directly. “I’ll hold you to that. Until then, Niha will be back in a few to take us around the other islands. How you feel about snorkeling and jet skiing before lunch?”
“I feel like you just wanna see me wet and half naked all day.”
“Trust me, sweetheart, I can get you wet and completely naked right now if I need to.” The confidence in his matter of fact statement and half smirk made CoCo’s face heat up as she turned her head to hide a smile. Chadwick took notice and let out a full belly laugh.
“Don’t hide that pretty smile from me, girl. You know I’m right.”
“Where is this new level of nasty coming from, Mr. Boseman? I like it.”
Leaning across the table, Chadwick pulled Tasha’s hands into his to graze his lips across her knuckles. “You want me to be honest? I’m living out all the things I wanted to do with and to you when we talked about this all those years ago. Believe me when I say we’ve only scratched the surface.”
In CoCo’s mind, it seemed impossible to go any further than they had already gone. They’d had more sex in 16 hours than they’d had in 16 days in their own private corner of the world. If it all had to end right then, their half a day in the Maldives would still be heralded as their best excursion to date. What more was there to do?
When Niha returned to lay out the full itinerary, CoCo was worried that they would need an extra hour or two in the day to enjoy everything.
Every step of the way, they became drawn to each other like magnets. As the snorkeling guide gave rules and tips at the top of their session, Chadwick kept a hand at the small of Tasha’s back to make the occasional rub across her behind as inconspicuous as possible. A request for more sunscreen became CoCo’s excuse to run her hands across Chadwick’s back and chest more times than necessary. A warning from Niha about the legality of public displays of affection kept them from going too far, creating tension that would be useful for their time back at the villa.
With her body secure in his hold against the back loveseat of their passenger boat, CoCo allowed her eyes to close and her mind to truly take in the scope of what was happening around her. Chadwick felt her shoulders rise and fall in a deep sigh and tightened his grip around her.
“What you thinkin’,” he asked before placing a kiss on top of her head.
“I’m thinking that I am the luckiest girl in the world right now. You have made every one of my dreams come true.”
“You deserve it, baby.” In their first public show of affection that day, their lips came together in rapid sweet kisses and carefree giggles.
“So, you know,” CoCo started as she pulled away to lean against Chadwick. “I gotta step up my game for you this year. If you pull out any more surprises we may have to go to the Moon.”
“Maybe wait until this next one before you make the final decision.”
“What?”
Finally taking the time to pay attention to their route, Tasha noticed that they weren’t in the vicinity of their villa. Open water gave way to an unpopulated boating dock and a boat that carried two waving captains.
“We’re here, Mr. and Mrs. Boseman,” Niha smiled over her shoulders. Your captains for the night are Kyle and Aisar. They’ll take great care of you.”
“Uh, Niha, where exactly is here?”
Niha looked to Chadwick for permission to answer CoCo’s question which he granted with a lazy nod and smile.
“You are about to embark on a Kuoni sunset cruise. Your husband has requested total privacy for your evening. This is the perfect time to watch the sunset and spot a few dolphins during your outing.”
Tasha never got the chance to express her shock or gratitude. Niha’s boat came to a stop at the dock before they were carefully escorted from one mode of transportation to the next. The traditional dhoni, covered in exquisite handcrafted wood and billowing lateen sails, was covered in white roses in the section set aside for Chadwick and Tasha to enjoy alone. Glasses of sparkling wine were presented as gifts to pair a general rundown of the trip before they were left to enjoy the view alone.
Their tour took them past picturesque islands, unaffected and uninhabited, able to exist in gorgeous peace. Conversation flowed as easily as the drinks and, soon, the decision to relax against the plush pallet and pillows followed/
The gentle rock of the boat added serenity to the moment between husband and wife and sat side by side to watch the sun take its final resting spot beyond the horizon. A dolphin jumping out of the ocean for a brief hello made CoCo smile, as she stared into the distance. A gesture so tiny would’ve been overlooked by most, but Chadwick couldn’t bring himself to look away. 
If he had to choose, the moments when his wife was absorbed in her thoughts and with no concept of the world around her were his favorites. Her sunkissed skin absorbed the dwindling rays of sunshine and reflected them tenfold. Flecks of her college self still remained to mesh expertly with the more refined aspects of the beauty acquired through maturation. Chadwick would argue with anyone foolish enough to engage that his wife was the most stunning woman on Earth. But, instead of debating what needed no defense, he took her chin between his index and thumb to command her full attention.
“Can I get you anything else? More wine?”
“No, I think I’m good, babe. Thank you. For everything.”
Smiling, CoCo leaned in for a kiss filled with equal parts love and lust. With no one around,  the risk of offense lessened and she jumped at the opportunity to push the envelope. That simple mantra of whenever, wherever rolled around the corners of her mind as she leveraged her position to straddle Chadwick’s lap. His hands took their time on the journey to her hips before settling in their preferred position.
“Okay, so we’re going to Mars for your birthday. I’ll start booking as soon as we get back.”
Chadwick laughed and shook his head, “You don’t have to go that far. I trust we’ll have a good time either way.”
Both of them could feel the heat of the other through the thin material of their swimsuits as the shared another kiss, this time more intense than the soft pecks throughout the day. Chadwick’s fingertips pressed into the soft skin of CoCo’s waist and hips to guide her movements. He could feel and hear the excitement building as her breathing became shallow. This was the whenever and wherever they’d be searching for.  
At the swivel of her hips in his lap, Chadwick and Tasha shared a moan. Slow grinding was perfect for a night in, but time was waning.  was a sense of urgency in the way that CoCo slid her bathing suit to the side, prompting Chadwick to follow her lead and push his shorts down his thighs. He helped her lift to her knees before using his fingertips to work her pearl in slow circles. Tasha quickly reached down to take him in her palm, forming a half circle around his length to assist him in reaching the peak of his arousal.
“If we’re gonna do this,” Chadwick spoke as he exhaled. “You gotta promise you’ll be quiet.”
Laughing, she bent down to nip at his earlobe, “I was gonna say the same thing to you.”
Their hushed giggles were cut short by simultaneous and different curses. Knowing that time was of the essence, CoCo braced herself with both hands planted on Chadwick’s chest as he adjusted his angle beneath her. Audible sighs of pleasure were lost in the sounds around them while they watched him disappear inside of her inch by inch.
Tasha’s body readily accommodated the stinging stretch of him, hugging and massaging his dick with every rotation of her hips. Satisfied with the honey coating her thighs and his, CoCo planted her knees on either side of her husband’s hips to start a moderate bounce in his lap.
Chadwick was relegated to breathless moaning as Tasha took control. Her face screwed in acute focus, eyes clamped shut, head thrown back and her bottom lipped trapped beneath her teeth. The setting sun cast erotic shadows against the aged wood to transform their bodies into one being.
Her fluid motions became entrancing in the pinks and purples of the impending nightfall. The graceful rise and fall of her breasts matched the rhythmic roll of her hips, adding a visual to the sensation that never seemed to get old when they were together.
“Look at you,” Chadwick whispered into the crook of CoCo’s neck. “So pretty ridin’ daddy’s dick. You gon’ come like this?”
“Yessss!”
“Show me, baby. Don’t stop ‘til you come.”
A dull burn in her thighs did little deter the chase of her approaching orgasm as Tasha went into overdrive. Shifting back to a grinding motion gave her the range to satisfy the throbbing ache within while her clit repeatedly grazed his pelvis. Any extra coaxing would’ve sent her to take her place amongst the stars, which Chadwick knew and used to his advantage.
Firm pressure to her clit with the pad of his thumb gave her the final piece of the puzzle as she came undone in one tremor after the other. Finishing was no longer a priority for Chadwick. His chief concern was getting his wife to the crest of her wave in her favorite position.
Tasha dug her nails into her husband’s back to control the scream bubbling in her chest. At the height of her release, the faint sound of hooping and hollering in the distance felt like an odd hallucination.
“Yeaaaah! That’s how you enjoy the ocean!”
“Get it, girl! Nice moves!”
Tasha rushed to hide her face from the lively group of spectators as their dhoni’s passed in the night. Chadwick held her close to shield her from embarrassment though he found humor in the situation. The lack of light in the immediate area kept their identities concealed, removing the worry of ending up on the front page of a tabloid.
“Y’all have a nice night now,” Chadwick hollered back in the midst of his laughter.
“Same to you, buddy! Enjoy the honeymoon! Don’t do nothin’ we wouldn’t do!”
Chadwick accepted the unsolicited advice with a wave of his hand and a thank you until the visitors were no longer in sight. Collapsing on top of each other in a heap, Chadwick set off a string of laughs at the absurdity of the situation.
“I can not believe that just happened. We fucked on a boat and got caught by the only other tourists for miles. What is life right now?”
“You put on a damn good show though, baby. Maybe we can get some of that on camera later tonight?”
“On camera you say,” she asked with a playful glint in her eye. “Good. I think I’m ready for my close up.”

Im Yours | Part 7
A/N: Who cares that its Monday. I needed to get this off my chest mmmkay?
Pairing: Jaebum x Reader Rating: Drama, Angst, Smut, Fluff WARNINGS: Language, Eventual Violence, Lots of Smut Later on
Tumblr media
Pt 1 Pt 2 Pt 3 Pt 4 Pt 5 Pt 6 Pt 7 Pt 8 Pt 9 FINALE
The world around you was once again black. Your body was aching from trying to hold yourself still for so long. The moment Pavliukov had left you had been retied to the wall, the bag was returned to cover your eyes and this time a gag was placed through your mouth. You being conscious meant you could scream and as the big russian man yanked you around he made it very clear that he didnt have time for that. You tried to remain awake. You knew if you nodded off one or two things could happen; You could strangle yourself, or you wouldn't be able to have a head start when people approached you.
You couldn't help but cry. You couldn't help but think about everything that had happened in the past 24 hours and how you ended up where you were. How you got yourself into this situation. How did you get in the middle of what seemed to be a mafia war.
Jaebum
What about Jaebum? Was he okay? Was he looking for you? How would he know to look for you though. You wondered if he tried to get ahold of you, if he texted you to tell you he was coming over and just figured you were just in the shower and showed up any ways just to find out you weren't in your apartment. You wondered if he waited there for you incase you had gone out to eat with your parents or even if you were at your parents for the night to see them. What time was it even. It must have been morning and you should have been there to cook breakfast. If he didnt figure it out then he must of had an idea that something had happened now. If he hadn't there were 6 other guys who would have noticed you weren't there.
Well 5.
BamBam.
How could he. How could he take part in this. Not even three days ago he was calling you his closest friend. Telling you how he loved how he could talk to you about anything and even though he had 6 other friends that he's known since birth you were the first person he could really talk to. As you sat there thinking about what he had said to you, you couldn't help but realize it was all a lie. It was a lie to get you to trust him and you wish you hadn't been so stupid. You wish that you hadn't let him manipulate you like that.
With the hatred brewing in your chest you almost didnt hear the approaching footsteps until they were right outside of the door. You jumped at the sound of the door being pulled open forcefully. Your heart began to race and your knees began to shake, you couldn't see anything which made you even more terrified. The feeling of the noose and the bag being pulled over your head made you jump again, the sudden contact sending chills up your spine. You breathed hard, eyes darting around the room until they landed on BamBam's.
He stood there looking at you with disgust on his face and the anger rose inside of you. Not caring that the restraints around your wrists tightened you tried to pull out of them, you've never wanted to strangle someone as badly as you wanted to right then and there. You grunted, tears burning in your eyes again as he watched you. How calm he looked made you try even harder until Pavliukov started to laugh.
"How tough you are little girl." He said walking over to block your view of BamBam.
Bravely you looked up at him and did the first thing you thought of. He chuckled as he slowly wiped your spit off his cheek before kneeing you in the face, causing you to fall over, your head hitting the ground hard again as your hands weren't there to soften your blow. You tried even harder to get your hands out of the restraints now, you needed to be able to defend yourself.
You screamed loudly as he grabbed your leg and pulled you making you roll to your back with your hands above your head. You kicked hard and got him hard in his thigh causing him to stumble slightly.
"You little bitch." He growled kneeling down to straddle your waist.
His fist hit your jaw so many times you lost count, the pain of it making it hard to use any of your body strength. When he finally stopped and dismounted your waist you rolled to the side and coughed violently, blood flying out of your mouth as you did so. You groaned at the pain in your jaw and blinked back the tears. You had to be strong. If you kept putting up a fight they might realized you weren't worth dealing with. Your eyes barley opened and met BamBam's again, he was looking at you with such a distant look you hardly even recognized him.
It pissed you off even more. He preached about family and keeping one another safe so often that his hypocritical words made him standing there even worse. You looked up even more, Pavliukov was standing back towards you talking to another man. You couldn't hear what he was saying, the ringing in your ears made it hard to hear anything. But you weren't going to let him get away with this. In one painful but swift motion you rolled over and swung your legs up forcefully nailing him right in-between his legs. He only doubled over for a seconds before turning on you, all humor gone in his eyes as he stepped over you once more.
"You want to touch what don't belong to you? Ill let you touch you bitch." He yelled, spit flying everywhere.
You tried to scoot back to avoid his hand but he just caught the rope that was hooked to your feet while the other men grabbed onto your shoulders. He grumbled about showing you who was boss, his hands moving over your body and making you yell and grunt in desperate attempt to get away from them. You yelled in pain as they flipped you over and pressed your sore jaw to the hard floor. You didnt know what was going on any more, you half expected him to take a fistful of your messy hair and begin to bash your head into the floor, but when his hands wrapped around your waist to undo your jeans you started to panic even more. '
"Enough."
All the weight disappeared from your body and your tried your hardest to catch your breath. Tears of fear started to fall as BamBam's shoes came to a halt in front of you. You couldn't help but sob when he bent down to make it easier for you to see his face.
"Bam.." You hiccuped though the tears. His fingers traced over your swollen jaw before Pavliukov voice brought you two back.
"Why you protect? Huh! Who side you on?" He yelled and even though you couldn't see him you knew that there was spit flying out of his mouth.
"Im not protecting anything other than you. If you were to continue you'd be dead." He said with a stern look.
"You're on our side? Prove it then." He growled and soon BamBam was standing up to come eye to eye with Pavliukov.
You whimpered as Pavliukov threw instructions at his men and you were soon being yanked up and thrown into a chair, a painful yell running through you as your hair was bing used as a leaver to pull you up. You bore your teeth in almost a triumphant way as you watched BamBam press his lips together, obviously uncomfortable with the way you were being treated.
"You think you can tell me what to do? You think because you brought me this you can tell me what to do?" He said, his voice getting louder and louder with every word.
"And I'm the reason your plan will work so the least you can do is respect me when I say Enough." BamBam said standing taller.
"Fine. If I can't relieve myself, Ill just have to relieve myself." He said before swinging around and landing a punch in your stomach causing you to lurch forward. Before you could groan another blow was sent into the sore corner of your jaw.
You cried out and coughed blood again and in hope that it would make them leave you alone you let your eyes flutter shut and your head roll forward.
"You want to prove your loyalty to me. Hit her."
Your eyes clenched and you bit your bottom lip. Out of all the things BamBam has done you couldn't ever see him hitting you. You were half convince he wouldn't until the sound of footsteps approaching you made your snap your head up. BamBam looked at you emotionless, one fist pressed hard into another. Your eyes began to dart and your bottom lip tremble. Your head shook and you started to squirm, his name coming from your lips in a soft and desperate way.
Once again he pressed his lips together before looking over to Pavliukov, who nodded. Your eyes darted back to BamBam who nodded once, clenched is jaw and then swung.
You blinked once but everything was too blurry to make out what was going on. Your head was pounding and you didnt feel fully awake. Your head rolled to the side and you tried to grimace in pain but your body didnt respond. Your heart started to beat faster as panic set in. You were able to slightly move your fingers and your toes but your eyes weren't opening. And then it was all black again.
You blinked again, but this time everything was dark. You tried to move you head to the side but there wasn't anything more painful you have ever done in your entire life and the pressure of trying to get your body to respond to your brains commands made everything go out again.
The next time your eyes opened it was light again and this time you could see better than before. Though you still couldn't quite move your head you could make of the dark figure of someone sitting across the room from you sit up. You panicked, what would happen if you showed signs of being awake? You were bound to get another blow to the head and you didnt know if you could handle that. The panic set in again and as you tried to blink, but it wast worth it. You were out again.
The next thing you consciously remember was the sound of a loud bang waking you up. You jumped, startled and opened your eyes, this time groaning as the pain in you body began to become more and more powerful. You blinked slowly, you're eyes starting to focus as more loud banging began to fill the concrete building. You looked to your left, the man who had been sat in the corner was now gone. Slowly your blurry eyes scanned the rest of the room until they landed right in front of you. You let out a blood curling scream and jumped causing the chair you were in to topple over, your head hitting the floor. You were caught nose to nose with the corps of your guard, the strong smell of blood filling all of your senses and his dead blank stare sending your body into shock. You wiggled trying to get away from the blood that was slowly making its way towards you but with your hands still tied to the back of the chair it made it hard to get out of the way.
You closed your eyes and cried, the warm feeling of the life draining the man in front of you making you sick, but now wasn't the time to vomit. More bangs echoed through the hall outside the door and every time the went off they seemed to be getting closer and closer. Suddenly the door bursted open and the sound of quick heavy footsteps started to approach you. You opened your eyes to see BamBam holding a small hunting knife and instantly you began to scream. You didn't want him anywhere near you and the closer he got to you the more you continued to scream. You were some how able to get your feet away from the chair and up to kick him in the stomach causing him to double over for half a second. It took all your strength to do that and immediately you regretted doing it.
There was a feeling in your side as BamBam regathered himself. Supporting his weight on you the feeling grew deeper. You coughed as his eyes grew wide, his hands now covered in blood. You closed your eyes and your breathing grew shallow. There was a commotion above you but you couldn't open your eyes, you couldn't turn your head and you couldn't breath.
Everything was fading and you have no where to go but down.

#49: “Let’s have a baby.”   -Braun Strowman.
Thank you @southerndreamz for the request! I hope you like it! I really enjoyed writing it. It’s over 2k words, and I’m NOT sorry about it. 
Tagging: @kaitlynwwefan, @panic-angel3314, @reigns420, @littleprincess1621, @m-a-t-91, @luckygillblog, @finnbalorsbabygirl, @unabashedwwesmut, @blackwidow2721, @wrestlingimaginesposts, @wweburnitdown, @thirstiswet, @princesstoniii, @birthday-prinxess 
Tumblr media
You worked with hair and makeup with WWE. You were familiar with all of the superstars, but there was one in particular you had a special interest in.
No one knew it, but you had a crush on Braun Strowman. You always thought if you told any of your friends, they’d laugh at you. Since he didn’t look like Finn Balor or Neville or anything, but you didn’t mind that. You liked your men to have a little extra meat on them. Since you weren’t that skinny yourself, that was all you wanted. A man that could handle you. In whatever way you want to take that.
Being 35 and unmarried, you began worrying that you weren’t going to find anyone and weren’t going to have what you really wanted in life. Children. You were eventually going to run out of time, and you made sure to go to the doctor to make sure you were still able to, if you wanted.
If you don’t find anyone to give you that, you had other options. You just had to figure it out sooner rather than later.
While you were in catering one day before a show, you were sitting with your friends and you could see Braun in the corner of your eye.
Out of nowhere, you notice that Nia Jax saw you staring, so she gets up and walks over to you.
“Got a thing for the ‘Monster Among Men’ do ya?” She asked, quiet enough, the people around you couldn’t hear.
You blushed, “Um, no.. Why would you ask me that?”
“Oh please. I totally saw you eyeballing him like he’s a piece of candy. He’s single you know.” She said, nudging you.
You didn’t know. There were rumors that him and Nia were a thing. They shared hotel rooms a lot of the time on the road. One can only assume…
“Oh, I didn’t know…” You said, staring at Braun again.
“I can put in a good word for you if you want. You seem like his type.” Nia said.
“Really? How so?” You asked, incredibly curious.
“Oh I don’t know. You aren’t the smallest girl in the room, you’re funny, you’re around his age. Seems like a good fit. I can set something up.” She said, now looking at Braun.
That made you really nervous. It was like you were in high school again where you couldn’t talk to your crush, and your friends did it for you. How embarrassing.
“That’s really okay, Nia. I do appreciate it though.” You said with a smile.
“Mmmkay. But if you change your mind, let me know.” She got up and gave you a wink.
After the show was over that night, you were in the room you did hair and was putting everything away. You told the other girls that you would take care of it. You needed the time to think.
You were bent over one of the totes with all the brushes and combs when you heard someone cough at the door.
Standing up quickly to see who it was, you had wished you were anywhere but there.
“Hey, need any help?” the thick country accent asked.
Braun.
You looked around the room, “Uh, I think I got it. Just about finished.”
“Thank goodness. I wouldn’t know where to put any of this stuff.” He said, letting out a chuckle.
“Yeah, no one would expect you to,” You laughed, “What’s up?”
“Oh not much. I noticed that you were still here. Most of the others are gone for the night. Thought you’d like some company.” He said.
“You didn’t talk to Nia tonight, did you?” You asked in suspicion.
He had a guilty look on his face.
“Well, actually I did.” He began, “She had mentioned something about you wanting to try something different with my hair?”
“She did? That’s weird. Because I never said that…” You said.
“I had a feeling you didn’t. She’s always up to something.” He said, rolling his eyes.
You signed. “Nia came up to me during catering and caught me….staring at you, I guess.”
“You were staring? Why?” He asked.
“You make this really hard,” You said, laughing nervously, “Because I have a minor crush on you. I have for awhile. I’m surprised Nia didn’t just tell you that.”
He looked down to the ground, as if embarrassed, again. “Well, she did. I just wanted to see if you would tell me yourself.”
“Great.” Your face was turning beat red. “I don’t think I have been this embarrassed in a long time.”
“No need to be embarrassed, because I may or may not feel the same way…” He said.
Braun got up and sat down next to you.
“I may not be the most… ‘talk about my feelings’ kind of guy or whatever, but I have noticed you around and have wanted to ask you out for awhile.” He said.
“Really? You have? You’re not just messing with me?” You asked.
“Do you really think I would be in here if it was a joke?” He asked.
You blushed again, “You’re right. I guess not.”
“So what do you say? Can I take you to dinner sometime?” He asked.
You agreed to go. You scheduled to do it next week, after one of the shows.
Things didn’t start there though. Braun started showing up more often before and after shows just to talk and get to know you. In your mind, things were going pretty well. You had a lot in common.
Braun was very family oriented, and so were you. The subject of marriage and kids came up once too. It made you really nervous, but Braun feels the same way you do, even though you didn’t tell him all of your thoughts on it. You didn’t want to scare him away. The two of you were around the same age, so it made sense.
The night finally came, your date with Braun.
He had made reservations at a nice place in the town you were in.
You were super nervous, but you knew it’d be okay, since you had spent the week getting to know each other.
The girls said that they would clean up tonight, since you told them about your date. They were actually excited for you.
You waited in there until Braun showed up.
When he did, you couldn’t believe what you saw. He was standing in the doorway in black dress pants, a dark blue button down shirt, and his hair in a bun.
Did he groom his beard?
“Wow, you clean up very nicely.” You said, walking towards him.
“So do you, I never knew you had long hair.” He said, admiring your long hair.
You never wore it down because it was just...easier.
He lead the way out of the building and of course, the two of you ran into Nia.
“Going somewhere?” She asked.
“Yeah, I’m taking this pretty lady right here on a date. Excuse us.” Braun said.
That was the first time you blushed tonight.
Braun got his rental car and opened your car door for you. You stepped in and he closed the door. He then got in the car and began driving.
“So, where are we going?” You asked.
“I can’t ruin the surprise.” He said, smirk on his face.
You stayed quiet the rest of the way.
He took you to a nice steak house, not quite what you were expecting.
You looked at it for a minute and Braun caught your expression.
“I know it’s not a 5 star place or anything, but all the locals said it was a must.” Braun said.
He got out and opened your door, offering his hand to help you out.
While walking in, Braun managed to grab your hand and intertwine your fingers.
You couldn’t help but smile.
The waiter took you to your table. Braun reserved the back of the restaurant for the two of you, so you were alone.
“Uh, should we do wine or…?” He asked, looking at the drink menu.
“We can do whatever you want. You’re a wine drinker?” You asked.
“Not particularly. I just figured it was date worthy. I’m more of a jack and coke kind of guy.” He said.
The waiter came over to get your drink order.
When Braun went to speak up, you held your hand up, “He will have a jack and coke and I will have...one of your hurricane punches, please.”
The waiter wrote it down then walked away.
“Thanks for that, but what is a hurricane punch?” Braun asked, laughing.
You shrugged your shoulders, “I’m not really sure. I just see it featured on the front of the drink menu. No need to make this fancy or anything.”
“You have no idea how much I appreciate that.” He said.
The two of you continued your conversation. You didn’t hold back when you ordered your food. You got a steak with a baked potato and vegetables. Although Braun’s was significantly bigger than yours.
Out of nowhere, “So I know this is kind of random, and I know I have talked about it before, but what are your thoughts on having kids?” Braun asked.
Your eyes got kind of wide and you looked down and took a deep breath.
“Honestly? I do want them, and if I want to have them, it needs to be sooner than later. But that isn’t something to really talk about on the first date.” You said, regretting what you said.
“No, I get it. We are getting older and running out of time. That’s what I’m afraid of too. Not having a baby obviously, but finding someone who wants the same things, you know?” He asked.
“I do know. It’s a challenge. Especially in your thirties.” You said.
Surprisingly, that was the end of that conversation.
The rest of dinner went smoothly, but Braun was more...flirty?
When dinner ended, he insisted that he paid and that you guys have one more drink. You knew that you felt pretty tipsy already, but oh well. One wasn’t going to make much of a difference.
Braun asked if you felt comfortable enough to drive back to the hotel, and you did. So Braun handed you the keys and he got in the passenger seat.
He was pretty quiet most of the way.
“I’m sorry about this, it’s not very..gentleman like.” He said.
You laughed, “That’s okay, I don’t mind. We are almost there.”
“So is that the end of our date or do you want to hang out some more?” He asked.
You looked over at him, “What do you have in mind?”
“I may have a little something up my sleeve.” He said.
You pull up the the hotel and the two of you walk in together. In the elevator, Braun insisted you go to his room.
When you got there, he opened the door. You walked in and he shut the door.
“Let’s have a baby.” He said.
Your eyes got wide, “Come again?”
He walked over to you and cupped your face, “I can’t help but feel we want the same thing. And I feel this connection with you. And this may be the alcohol talking, but I want to make a baby with you.”
You could not believe what he was saying. Did he really mean it? Or were they just drunk words? He didn’t have that much to drink tonight.
“You really want this? With me?” You asked, carefully.
“Yes.” He said, firmly.
You smiled up at him, “Then let’s make a baby.”
Braun smiled and walked over to the door. You were confused at first, but he just put the ‘do not disturb’ sign on the door.
You looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
“What? You never know who might try to interrupt.” He said.
Braun walked over to you and cupped your face again. Only this time, he kissed you.
You have been waiting so long for this moment, and it was finally happening. Now you couldn’t wait to see what happened next.

Palette belongs to @angexci (I cant tag… y? :-( Fell! Goth belongs to @nekophy
Third Person POV
Wait that’s it?? Fell! Goth thought to himself. He put the phone next to his bed and prevent himself for thinking any further, Why didnt he questioned if I was alright? Did he not care about me? Is he with someone else? Did he have plans… On leaving me? As (Fell!) Goth was thinking about that, he didnt realize tears were forming in his eyes(sockets) and was already falling down to his cheeks. Once he realized he was crying he keep wiping them but a new set of tears were falling down.
As much as (Fell!) Goth denied, he’s always emotional when getting sick, he wants someone to be with him, he was longing for attention, longing to be loved. Heh, that’s maybe the reason why he keeps on putting himself for Fell! Palette even though he knows he cant be more than his toys. (Fell!) Goth was getting sleepy, maybe he was tired thinking and crying or maybe his fever’s rising up, he didnt really care. He closed his eyes and slowly drifting himself to sleep.
Fell! Goth was standing, he didnt know where he was, it was black, he cant see a thing and when he blink the scenary was change, he was in the park, children was running, lauging, playing, couples were sitting on the bench iling at each other. In the park, he saw Palette, smiling at him, he didnt had second thought and start running his face didnt hide his emotion, he was smiling from ear to ear, he didnt know but happiness filled his heart when he saw him smiling. But in the corner of his eyes someone was running, it was him but not him, he stopped running, when he saw who it was, it was Palette’s childhood friend. When Goth was in front of Palette, they hold hands and smiling to each other and started walking. Suddenly (Fell!) Goth’s eyes betrayed him and started crying. He was running, trying to catch up with them, screaming “Palette! Palette!”, but the distance seems to grew larger every step he made. He tripped by his clothes, and fell down, he was crying, and saying “Pl-please *hic* d-dont le-le-leave *hic* m-me” between his sobs, he was grabbed by his chin, there he saw his childhood friend, smirking at him, “Aww~ looks like your boyfriend left you” he said with his creely smile. “HAHAHAHAHA” he suddenly laugh maniacally and said “no one will love you”
“NO!” (Fell!) Goth suddenly got up to his bed. It was just a dream, it was just a bad dream, he thought to himself. But he cant stop crying. Suddenly his door was opened forcefully, there he saw Palette panting, like he was running from a marathon. Palette saw Goth’s eyes, he was crying, he run into (Fell!) Goth and embrace him, caressing his head and saying “Shhh…. Shhh… It’s alright.. Shh… I’m here. I’ll never leave you” when (Fell!) Goth hear the last phrase, his emotion burst out and started crying loudly while Palette was comforting him.
The end BONUS!!!
Once the drama is over, palette sit on (Fell!) Goth’s bed. “Why are you here?” Goth questioned Palette. “Hmm? Well, I was going to suprise you, and I came in your house finding you were asleep, thinking that I shouldnt bothered you, I was going outside your house, when I hear you screamed so I ran to your room and you know the rest.” Palette said smiling, (Fell!) Goth was embarassed when he remembered what happened, and then he felt dizzy. Palette saw the discomfort and gently push him down in the bed “w-wait! what a-are you d-doing?” Goth asked while blushing. “Hm? I’m laying you in the bed, so you can have some rest” Palette said, “A-ah ok” Goth said blushing even deeper, suddenly Palette’s hand was in (Fell!) Goth’s forehead, getting the other skeleton flinch. Palette put a cold and wet towel into Goth’s forehead to lessen the fever. “Well now let’s get some rest” Palette said while laying down and hugging Goth “W-wait! Are you not going home?” Goth turnedasked while again blushing. “Hm? No.” Palette answered lazily, “B-but why?” Goth asked him again and Palette opened his eyes and kiss (Fell!) Goth’s forehead and said “Because I love you” (Fell!) Goth blushed on what Palette said, “Not my fault if you get my fever” he said trying to be intimidate by pouting but it turns out to be cute. Palette chuckled and said “Alright, alright lets sleep” “Mmmkay” Goth said then slowly closed his eyes. The next day, Palette was in (Fell!) Goth’s bed coughing, while Goth was standing crossed arms, “I told you, you would get my fever!” Goth said to Palette “hehe *cough* *cough* no regrets” Palette managed to say while coughig. “Ughh, wait here I’ll go get some meds for you” Goth was walking, when Palette grab his hand and pull him to an embrace. “I love you” Palette said to Goth which caught him defendless, and said “I-I love you too, jerk” Goth said while blushing.
