2.5k Event Request - Nick x GN!Reader word count: 970 a/n: what i wouldn't give for this idiot to teach me everything he knows, because i just know he's picked up a few tricks (and infections) along his way... cw: reader is afab, inexperience, loss of virginity, first kiss, dirty talk kinda 🔞minors dni🔞 • masterlist • kofi link • tag: finnie2.5k (to follow or to block)

Nick was speechless, for once, in the face of your confession. Shocked at how you had said it so passively, how you were willing to be so vulnerable with a man who took everything anyone said to him to use as ammunition when it suited him, whether as a serious threat or as playful teasing.

“Are you… are you kidding me?”

“Does that sound like something I’d joke about? Is my situation funny in any way to you?”

He raised his hands quickly, averting his eyes from your intense gaze as he let you repeat yourself, listening intently to make sure he hadn’t misunderstood.

“I can’t really find the joke when I’m so pissed off, y’know? What kind of bad luck do you need to have to be a virgin at the end of the world?”

“Yeah, no, that’s… That sucks. But you can always remedy that situation.”

In your peripheral you caught a glimpse of that signature Nick smirk, one that seemed playful and cruel all at the same time.

“Oh yeah, because there’s tonnes of eligible partners walking around these days, huh?”

“Listen, being picky got you in this mess, you wanna keep that up?”

You were read to scold him as you turned his way, about to correct him and tell him off for making assumptions, but the words stuttered to a halt in your mouth as you caught his expression. Eyebrows raised expectantly, smirk turning into a sneer as he waited for you to catch on. And when you did, you let out an exclaimed, short laugh.

“I’m up for it if you are. There’s nothing better to do out here.”

“Oh wow. I’m very flattered.”

Your tone was flat, unamused, and as you turned away from him, you felt his hand reach for your arm, grabbing you and keeping you close to him on the roof of the abandoned motel where you intended to spend the night.

“No, no, no, hey! Wait! Come on, that’s not what I meant… I’m just trying to… make it less of an event. It’s casual. No big deal. One friend helping another.”

Eyeing him up, you turned your body back around to him.

“No big deal? Just casual? Promise?”

“Of course, completely! I’ve done this so many times. Just a one-night stand… My experience speaks for itself. Besides, rooftop at sunset? The world all ours? Can’t think of a better time to knock that one off the bucket list.”

“Well… tell me what you’re going to do, first.”

The request flustered him, something you’d never seen before in the man who had always remained cool, calm and collected in the face of even your more monstrous enemies.

“I think we should kiss first. Helps ease the tension, makes the next steps easier.”

“I’ve never kissed anyone either…”

“Fuck me…”

Nick could feel his cock twitching, and he shifted to hide the obvious tenting at the front of his white pants. The thought of you, so sweet and innocent, being corrupted by him, completely at his will, eager to learn, eager to have him show you everything he knew… it was enough to make him lose control of himself. He had to stay focused. So he took a deep breath and continued.

“Ok then. Kiss first. Nothing fancy. No tongues to start. Soft and gentle. Then, I guess we should keep our clothes on as much as we can… Which I have to admit is a little disappointing, because I have been admiring your ample physique when I’ve had a spare moment… But we don’t want to be caught off guard. But I could pull your pants down a little, see what we’re working with.”

“Oh my god.”

He blushed, immediately trying to smooth over his clumsy wording.

“Sorry, I just mean a little foreplay never hurt anybody. Even people who are desperate to get to the main event. Plus, it’ll be a little taste of what’s to come if I use my fingers first.”

“Oh? Are they comparable size-wise then?”

He snorted, scoffing at the ridiculous insinuation.

“No, it absolutely is not. But I wouldn’t want to hurt a pretty thing like you by barrelling into it, even if you have plenty of cushioning where it’s best to have it…”

He was distracted again, focusing on your body, the curves and rolls that he’d thought about running his hands over each night as he tried to fall asleep.

“Nick…?”

Distracted once again, he scolded himself quietly and tried to get back on track.

“Right… once you’re ready, I’ll just…”

“Just what?”

“I don’t know how to word it.”

His cheeks were reddening, brighter than before.

“Are you embarrassed, Nick?”

“No! It’s just hard to figure out how to word it in a way that isn’t just me telling you that once that tight hole of yours is wet enough, I’ll spread you open, push my cock inside of you and start fucking me until you cum quick like the desperate virgin you are. Doesn’t sound that romantic, does it?”

“That… actually sounds good.”

“Really? Well, what are we waiting for then?”

As Nick leaned in, his lips close enough to yours that you could almost feel them on you, a screech echoed across the car park behind you, the warning sign of impending doom in the form of whatever creature might have inadvertently stumbled upon you both. As you looked to Nick, he cocked his gun and stood up, offering you a helping hand as he spoke.

“Looks like you might need to wait a little longer.”

In response to his mean-spirited wink, you offered a sarcastic smile, more a grimace.

“Hopefully I find someone better before we’re alone again, then.”

His smile widened, the flirtatious teasing only securing his desire to make sure he was the one who cured what ailed you.

Hi! Would you be interested in writing dating headcanons about the L4D2 survivors? Thanks in advance<3 (P.S. I love your work)

Left 4 Dead 2 Survivor dating head-canons!

Hello anon, and I'd be delighted to and thank you for enjoying the work I put out! I don't have a clever quip to throw in this time so without further a-do, here are your head canons.

Nick

He's an asshole to everyone, but he's soft when it comes to you. Especially if you don't pick up on sarcasm like everyone else.

He'd never try to yell or raise his voice at you like he would with others too. Nick is patient and holds up on you when you start to lag behind

It's a surprising display of intimacy that has the others making eyes at him and looking smug. 'Didn't think you had it in ya, Nick'.

He smiles a little more, and tries to be romantic in spite of the setting.

It's the little things that make the world go 'round, and he's got a knack for doing them for you, intentionally or not.

Needed pills for something? He's got you covered, even if he thought he needed them more.

Instead of giving you your share of compliments and nick names, he'd point out your habits and say that they're cute and call you other names: 'I think it's really cute how you play with your hair when thinking about something' / 'Alright let's get out of here stinky'

Ellis

He is the sweetest guy.

He loves telling stories to you, and he always plays them up to try and make you laugh.

Ellis will take you sight seeing around Savannah, or try and take you out to a fancy date he's prepared(beer on the roof top)

He likes to show you off or brag that he has you as his S/O.

"Damn I'm so lucky to have you, y'know"

He will get sad if he's separated from you for too long, and hope that you're okay whenever you two get separated from each other for whatever reason.

He's a hugger, and will often reach his arms around to hug you from behind whenever he has the chance.

Says "I love you" a lot. Do not fight him on this because he'll just keep saying he loves you more or hit you with a "nuh-uh"

Nick gets tired of this whenever it happens.

Rochelle

She's the boss when it comes down to it, stubborn as a mule but if you're really against something she'll hear you out on it.

If Nick says some shit to you, she'll whip something witty right back at him that makes him either scoff or shuts him right up.

Rochelle beams at you whenever you save her from one of the special infected, hyping you up with that gorgeous smile of hers.

"Yep, that's mine right there", as you help her up.

She likes to bring you little gifts here and there, especially when you need them without ever asking for them out loud.

"Here, I thought you might need this", and she presses it into your hands with a small smile as she looks up into your eyes

She is likes to hold your hand as you two travel, or have your pinkies intertwined when you need to break away for a fight

She likes to press her back against yours, feeling safe that you've got hers when it comes down to it.

Rochelle thinks you're a lot cooler than you may let yourself believe

Coach

He's right behind you every step of the way, and will lift you up anyway he can. Except for literally, he might hurt his back if he tries to do that.

The two of you eat good, even for the apocalypse, he won't let you eat nothing trashy but also nothing that will put either one of you in a theoretical ER.

Will pull you off to the side if he sees that you're feeling down or are bummed out about something.

He's real good at talking with you about things

Absolutely loves giving you little kisses on the top of your head or your hands, anywhere he can really

His love language is words of affirmation(I am so sure on this)

Likes to praise you, congratulating you on good shots and a bit more lenient with you when you make bad ones.

Coach is endearing though, never the "ooh now personally I wouldn't have done that" kinda comments.

He likes to guide your hands when he steps behind you, "try it like this"

He likes to hold you close in his arms, and letting you listen to his heart as you two rest up.

"Everything's gon' be alright baby, I've got ya"

L4D2 Nick x Reader

Office AU

Gender neutral reader Nick does call them sweetheart condescendingly (because hes an asshole)

Recently rediscovered this oneshot I wrote over a year ago as a joke(?) thing with a friend, not my best work but I think the concept was cute so if anyone's interested !! I don't know how to format fanfics on here bear with me. ALSO I edited it a little but also not really . not my best work so apologies D:

“As you both probably know, Ellis’ birthday is tomorrow.” You shuffled in your chair, attempting to make yourself comfortable. Of all the things your boss, Rochelle Torres, could have pulled you into her office for you were rather surprised it had to do with the birthday of one of your coworkers. Ellis Thompson was relatively new to your small sales office- he recently moved from manufacturing- but you got on quite well with him. The man seated to your left, however, did not.

“And? What, do I need to bake overalls a birthday cake or something, maybe hire some strippers to jump out of it?” This sarcastic quip came from no other than Nicolas “Nick” Wright, the well dressed and, admittedly, rather attractive salesman with a rather unnatractive attitude. He was known around the office for his pessimism and sarcasm, and the damned white suit, blue shirt combo he wore to work every day. However, he was great at his job and an excellent leader. In fact, he wasn’t half bad when he was focused. You’d even managed to coax a compliment out of him the last time the two of you were assigned to a project together. 

“No.” Rochelle responded after a moment, giving him a warning glance. It was obvious she was amused yet unenthused by his comment, the newly promoted woman was still finding a balance between banter with her subordinates and the level of professionalism needed by a regional manager. She was doing a good job, though, you noted internally. Much better than Nick, who so clearly struggled with professionalism. Rochelle spoke again, interrupting your thoughts about the suited salesman. “Actually, I need you two to decorate the conference room. Louis normally takes care of it, as you know, but his sister’s wedding happened to coincide with Ellis’ birthday.

“I approved his time off in advance and told him I’d take care of finding someone to set up the party, but then I forgot. I’ve just been really busy and it slipped my mind, I’m sorry for the short notice, guys.” Rochelle sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose before looking back apologetically at you and Nick. You glanced to your left to gauge Nick’s reaction, which was unsurprisingly not a happy one. He looked like he was about to say something he’d later regret, so you cut him off.

“Don’t worry! We know you’ve had a lot on your hands as of late, it’s okay to make a mistake once and a while. Just tell us what we need to do specifically and we’ll do it, no problem.” You could practically feel Nick’s blank stare boring into the side of your head, but as Rochelle smiled you realized that he realized that you just saved his fucking ass. You’re welcome, Nick.

“Well, I went ahead and took care of the cake, so don’t worry about that. I took some time and dug around to find what party supplies we had on hand, so you’ll find that stuff in the conference room. Just go in there and do your best to spruce up the room, that’s all I can really ask.” You nodded, taking her statement as a que to exit. You stood up and looked toward Nick, who still hadn’t left his chair.

“Why did you choose me for this? At least the country boy and (Y/N) are actually friends.” He huffed, crossing his arms and sliding down in his seat slightly. It was almost funny to watch a grown man act so juvenile, especially a man who acted as macho as Nick did. This time there was no amusement in Rochelle’s stare.

“You two are my top salespeople. I figured you both deserved a break for all the hard work you do around here, however if doing things for your coworkers feels like a punishment to you I can make it one. Get working on it, now.” She said sternly, pointing a pink painted nail toward the door. He seemed to get the message as he scurried out after you. 

A pack of 24 assorted multicolor balloons, a pile of colored construction paper, and a spool of twine were waiting on the conference room table for the two of you. Beside them sat various office supplies, including a tape dispenser, a hole puncher, and a pair of scissors.

“Alright, here’s the game plan. Take the hole puncher and make some confetti with the construction paper. The custodians will hate us but it’ll make the table look more festive. I’ll make a banner with the paper and twine, then we’ll blow some balloons.” You directed, handing him the hole puncher before turning to grab the supplies you’d need. You had a vivid picture of what you needed to do in your mind. If you cut the letters in “Happy Birthday Ellis” out of the construction paper, then punched holes into the tops of them, you could string them on the twine and hang it up above the tabl-

“Who died and put you in charge?” Nick retorted, begrudgingly reaching for a piece of paper to begin his confetti making journey with. His scowl was even worse than it typically was, which was saying something.

“Probably the same person who died and made you a huge bitch. Like seriously, what’s your deal? Might do you some good to take the stick out of your ass and try to enjoy things once and a while.” You didn’t spare him a glance, instead beginning to cut an H out of a piece of orange construction paper. The room fell silent, save for the clicking of the hole puncher and the sound of scissors gliding across paper. Yes, what you said was unprofessional. That much you acknowledged, and if he decided to take that up with HR (that is, when the HR representative Louis came back from vacation) you were willing to take the consequences that came along with it. However it was the truth, and it needed to be said. You kept cutting.

“Sweetheart, if anyone else had said that I would have punched them.” Nicholas replied quietly, a few moments after the silence had gotten awkward. His voice was so soft, it was startling. What he said didn’t feel rude or like a threat, it just felt personal. The silence returned. You finished cutting H, then A, and P, another P, and then Y. You set your paper scraps between you and Nick’s seats and in some unspoken agreement, he turned it into confetti.

Clearly, there was something on your coworkers mind. Nick was never this quiet. As much as he seemed like he disliked people, you just got the feeling he thrived around them. When the two of you went for a meeting with one of the company’s customers he talked nonstop. He really is charismatic, especially when he’s not so rude. The longer the silence between you two went on, devoid of even a sarcastic crack or a mumbled string of curses, the more uncomfortable it became until finally you just had to ask.

“What’s wrong?” You inquired, finally turning to focus your (E/C) eyes on the suited man beside you. He took a deep breath, set down his tools, and turned to face you. Nick’s grey eyes were watering, tears threatening to spill out. He sniffled, averting his gaze and smiling crookedly. Instinctively, you reached out and embraced him, pulling him into a hug. His composure broke and he began to cry into your shoulder, melting into the physical contact that he so desperately needed. You could faintly make out muffled apologies and explanations coming from the crying man, nothing that really made sense but you realized this was more for him than it was for you. You just let him get it all out, one hand around his back and the other cradling his head. 

After a few minutes, his sobs slowed, then eventually stopped. Nick broke away from the hug, red eyed and sniffling. His true nature finally hit you: he’s a good guy, just scared to be vulnerable.

“I’m sorry.” He sniffed, your gazes still locked.

“I know you are.” You smiled gently.

“So much has happened but that doesn’t excuse being a dick. I’m so sorry.” Nick continued weakly.

“Do you want to talk more about it?” You offered.

He nodded.

“Over drinks tonight? The bar downtown?”

He nodded yet again, smiling.

With that, the two of you simultaneously turned back to your birthday party prepwork, the silence much more comfortable this time. He’s a good guy deep down, and you’re determined to meet the real him. For now, though, you were content cutting letters.

Nick (L4D2) x Reader

So I’m getting back into l4d2 because I haven’t played it in a little while. Writing this one for everyone’s favourite conman.

Warnings: Nick is not himself (because of feelings), Swearing, fluff

Swinging your axe you brought it down on a zombie’s head with a thud and blood sputtering everywhere.

You wipe your greasy and sweaty skin as you lift up your weapon until you’re holding it normally again as the others walk in front of you.

Nick gives you smirk as he shoulder checks you and turn turns on his act “(Y/N)! Don’t touch my suit you’ll make it dirty”

You roll your eyes but luckily Coach saw him purposely do it and spoke up.

“Nick, your the one who shoulder checked him/her/them and wanted his/her/their attention, so don’t act like that”

You smiled, and looked at Nick who was looking at you but not saying a thing. It was like this for a minute before he looked back in front of him.

Shrugging off the feelings you had you continue onwards towards the next safe-room.

•Nick POV•

As we walk towards the next safe house I can’t help but think about (Y/N).

I have liked him/her/them for a little while now, since we were at the hotel. I don’t know what it was but I liked (Y/N) for his/her/their kind heart and willing to help people, especially me and I feel like I don’t deserve it with how much of a dick I am.

To be honest, I’m scared, due to my past as a con artist I lost a lot of people I cared about, I don’t want that to happen with (Y/N).

That is a reason why I still try to be condescending towards (Y/N) so that if I push him/her/them away then those feelings will go away but I am a fool. Because it didn’t it made the feelings stronger.

We made it to the next safe house and I go and sit down in the corner just pondering.

•End of Nick’s POV•

When you all had made it to the safe room, Coach shit the door and boarded it up and you walked over to the table to place you gun and axe down for the night.

You noticed Nick sitting in the corner but didn’t think much of it just thinking he wanted to be alone but what you didn’t know was that he was thinking about you.

Waking up sometime later you look out of the door and see it’s still quite dark so you get up and decide to take watch while the others were sleeping. Well, not all of them.

You sit next to Rochelle as you tried to make yourself comfy on the ground and then drifted off to sleep.

Looking to your right you see Nick sat up in his spot looking out of the door in deep thought.

“Nick” you whisper which catches his attention.

“Oh, what are you doing up?” He asked his usual sarcastic tone and replaced with calmness.

“Thought I’d take watch but seems like your already on it” you say laying back down.

“Wait”

You sit back up “what?”

He thinks for a moment before saying “please sit with me”

This caught you off guard, Nick is never really like this so it was weird and rare to see this. But the feelings in your heart were telling you to just do it.

So you got up being mindful of the other sleeping survivors and sat down in a spot next to Nick as you talked.

“What’s eating at you?” You ask him “you’re not this…nice or deep in thought”

He turned to you for a moment before looking back at the door.

“Listen, (Y/N). I’ve been having these feelings that I feel I need to get of my chest, shocker I know, you probably thought I was the least likely to confess feelings”

“Nick-“ you say but you’re cut off

“Let me finish, like I said, here I am now confessing feelings. (Y/N)..I..I love you” he said.

Your eyes widened and your eyes search his and you managed to breathe out

“Nick-I love you too”

He smiles and kisses you pulling you closer to him. You place your head on his shoulder.

“It’s us against the apocalypse sweetheart” but this time ,he wasn’t using sweetheart to be a dick.

[angelwheat]

Dating headcanons for Ellis & Nick? (seperated, of course!)

Left 4 Dead 2

Ellis and Nick; Dating Headcanons

yay! this is my first request writing for my sweet boy Ellis, ooh and Nick too. don't hesitate to send more requests dearie ♡

these hcs are not initially based during the apocalypse. interpret these as you will.

Ellis

To say he was nervous in the beginning, is an understatement. He needed a little bit of encouragement before he properly made a move.

He's energetic and very spontaneous. Always up and ready to bounce from one thing to another, and he wants to do everything with you.

You're the main one to hear his stories, and he loves the fact that he has someone close to him that'll listen and let him finish them for once. Nothing is better than seeing the bright smile on his face as he rambles.

Ellis is mesmerised by you. Quite often he zones out while he's simply admiring you as you mind your business. He always has the sweetest smile on his face when he does this, and he gets flustered and mumbles a lot if you happen to catch him.

Constant attention. Whether giving or receiving, Ellis always seems to be within arms reach for a hug or kiss. He hugs you often, even if he just wraps an arm around you and pulls you to his side. His favourite is hugging you from behind, and he usually can't refrain from leaving little kisses on your neck.

Ellis is a real homebody. He doesn't stray to far from home usually, but he does love to be outside. He often wants to go out for walks and have fun in the nearby fields with you, or even go for a long drive with no initial destination. So long as you'll tag along, he's happy.

Nick

That suave, big ego persona of his only heightened once you came around. He was so cocksure in the beginning, and was flirting almost immediately.

Nick tries to play it cool around you. He was quite the ladies man after all. But sometimes he has trouble keeping himself so composed. Even just admiring you, the facade has slipped a few times just for a split second, but you most likely won't see it.

Though he won't openly admit it, Nick likes to be around you. Even before you started dating he'd make up petty excuses to keep you nearby. It seemed more like him being protective.

Nick is one for subtle affection. He won't openly go to hug you in front of others, but doesn't mind if you snuggle to his side. He has quite the reputation that he likes to keep up, but deep down inside he loves it when you cling to him.

He's cautious of who you hang around with, purely because he is naturally weary and doesn't trust people, but Nick also gets jealous very easily. He gets defensive and denies it if you tease him on how jealous he gets.

Despite the cold-hearted demeanour he regularly shows, Nick has a heart, it's just reserved for you only. On few occasions he has let himself be completely vulnerable with you, but he can snap back to his usual self in a second.

[yandere--stuck]

Yandere!Nick (Left 4 Dead 2) Headcanons

💙 If Nick were being truthful, something he isn't often, he'd say he couldn't even on himself for the most part. He relied mostly on luck, partially on strategy, and never, ever, on others. Sometimes, Nick would recall when he could rely and trust others - so young and naive. He remembered his mother, a tailor. His father, a gambler and a drunk.  He remembered screaming fights and bruises and broken bones. He remembered the policemen taking dear old dad away, and he remembered mom's dead body. None of the family he had been passed around through the foster system could ever soothe the ache of his heart. He grew into what he hated most - a gambler and a drunk. Nick never knew what love was. He thought he did, once, but backed out at the last second (like the coward he was). He knew love was not hitting or screaming or anger. But what was? Nick didn't know. And he certain he never would…

🎲 That is, until he met you. You were a newcomer in their group, and they had taken you in at Coach's insistence - not that the others were too keen on leaving a potential survivor behind, of course. Ironically, Nick was the only one who thought the whole thing was a bad idea. Another person meant another mouth to feed, another person to look put for, someone else to drag into a safe room when they were too weak and injured to go on any further.  They all only had so many medkits…

💙 Though, in spite of his initial, cold first impression, you warmed up to Nick, finding yourself sticking to him the most. You tried your best to win his favor - all of the other survivors thought of you warmly, and it only made sense to try to be friends! After all, teamwork makes the dream work! Nick finds your attempts to win him over… Annoying. but, he can't help but find himself beginning to grow fond of you. The way smiled at him, how you rushed over to help him up or heal him, the way you stuck so close to him as you made your way to safety, eyes scanning for infected and making sure he was close. It was… Cute.

🎲 Nick found himself smiling at the thought of you. It was as though you sparked something deep inside him, long thought dead and gone. He felt… so warm. The warmth bloomed from his chest, spreading throughout his entire body. It felt… Almost alien, really. All his emotions, at least from what he remembers, were cold and sharp and rough, and he molded himself to fit them. But you… You made him so soft and warm and light… And loved. Love. Is… Is this what love was? This warmth? This happiness? He'd never have guessed that he'd find love, especially not like this - lying against the wall of a safe house, you curled up against his side, sleeping soundly, and an army of infected fruitlessly trying to get in. As he eyed the zombies, their arms flailing through the bars of the door, he felt the warmth in his chest darken and boil. Now that he had you, he had to protect you. Protect you and never let you go…

💙 Strangely, you find that Nick is a lot more affectionate as of late. He was tolerant of your affection before, but now… Something felt off. When walking through barren streets, his free hand would wrap around you waist, keeping you close. In safe houses, he'd pull you away to where the other couldn't see and hug you and nuzzle into you. Even when you'd tried to pull away, he'd hold you in place with a huff, tightening his grip. He also seemed much more tense - his trigger finger less disciplined and eyes always darting about, searching for infected. There's been numerous times when you were about to take aim, facing off against the hoard or a special infected, and Nick would rush in front of you, forcing you behind him, so that he could take on the infected himself. Nick's behavior was so strange that the others had noticed, as well - Ellis, Rochelle, and Coach asking if you had noticed anything strange about Nick, if you knew why…

🎲 Nick wasn't acting strange, no - if anything he was changing for the BETTER, right? I mean, isn't it good to love someone? Isn't it good to make sure nothing hurts the one you love, to make sure that nothing gets between the two of you? Yes… Yes, he's good. He'll be good for you. He'll be the perfect partner, he'll always protect you - no matter what or who has to die. After all, you made him so happy… You made him feel so warm. You gave him a rush that not even gambling could.  You were the best thing that had come out of the zombie apocalypse, the best thing that had ever happened to Nick. You were even making him change for the better! See? You and he were MEANT to be together! And he'll make sure you and he get your happily ever after, no matter what...

[phonkscribes]

I don’t want to bother you that much but when you have the time can I get how the survivors (L4D2) will react to having a crush on the new guy they stumbled upon? Please and thank you!! <3

-xxHarukaxx

You're not a bother at all, I'm always excited to get a new letter in the mail. Here's a few headcanons on the gang having a crush on the newbie :)

Nick

He might've regarded that new guy as a little more than dead weight given that the group doesn't have the best experience when another is added in. He was so ready to shoot the guy the second he started showing symptoms of the Green Flu. However, in the passing days that he's gotten to fight along side the guy, he's finding himself softening up around him. Nick thinks that he finds him tolerable, nothing more and nothing less next to his other friends. Although, there's just something different about him than the others. Ellis gets on his nerves, Rochelle bumps heads with him whenever he hits anyone with his sarcasm, and Coach is just... Coach.

The new guy doesn't get flustered when he says something smart, he shoots him a grin and rolls with the punches, even offering something just as smart back to him. He's not shown up often, or enough to remember really, but it's just another thing that has him drawn in. When he notices this little development, he can't believe himself. The newbie will brush a hand along the fabric of his shoulder, pulling him out of his haze and watching as his cheeks tinge a shade darker.

"You alright, Nicholas?"

Shit.

The tease heats him up as he reloads his assault rifle, watching you carry on with Ellis and falling into step behind Rochelle as Coach watches the whole thing. He just looks at him, already knowing as Nick tries to fight off the smile creeping onto his face.

"What are you looking at?"

"Nothin' Nick"

Ellis

He was happy to find another soul lost out in this shit show of an apocalypse, waving the others over to come and meet him. Ellis just hoped that the new guy wouldn't turn out like the other one did in the Helicopter. He's quite the chatter box while the newbie doesn't seem to be a guy of many words. Before he launches into his usual ramblings, he pauses just in case the other doesn't like him running his mouth as he does. He's just surprised to find him listening, hanging on every word as they push through the muck and grime of zombies. It takes him back when the new guy nudges him, urges him to carry on when the others walk ahead to avoid another one of Ellis' Keith tales.

The best part is getting to hear him laugh, the way his eyes crinkle as he smiles just... it's just wow.

It makes him feel all light and giddy. When the new guy tells his stories in turn with his own, Ellis can't help but to ask questions rather than to tell him to quiet down some. When the new guy talks, he sets the mood real well, never a dull moment packed within his words. It could be about anything dull or not all that exciting, and Ellis would drink it up. He thinks that he's so cool, smart, and funny, and... shit, does he got a crush on him or something?

The apocalypse has made it real hard to find someone out there, and he doesn't want to mess it up by not knowing what to say or what to do. Nick just laughs as Rochelle punches his arm, trying to give the best advice she can as the conman tells him to just be cool. He isn't very subtle when trying to make his advances.

Rochelle

There's something about that new guy that just intrigues her. Sure there are other men in her life that happen to also have an air of mystery floating around them, but none happening to be more prominent than the addition of the rookie. She calls him rookie, and he doesn't seem to mind, even when she lingers in the back to chat with him. The first thing she does when she develops this little crush is to make sure that there isn't anyone else who's that close to him. It'd be awkward to try and make a move when he's got a fiance or partner(if she's still out there!) She teases him a little, invites him to have their playful banters with each other, typical stuff. Nick and Coach catch on before Ellis does as he wonders why she seems to be spending an awfully long time with the new guy.

When he does catch on, he'd try to tease Rochelle about it but she shuts him down real quick. She doesn't want anyone else to know before she tries to confess to you or make any moves. There's a right way to do it and there's a wrong way to do it, and at every opportunity, she's nervous to just outright ask. Nick urges her forward, to just get it over with because he's sick of her being puppy eyes at him and not doing anything about it.

"Jesus, if you keep waiting, the zombies will hurry up and take him!"

"Nick. I don't remember asking you for your opinion! And besides, there's no rush..."

"Uh-huh... riiiiiight, oh! Hey rookie!", he rolls his eyes, shaking his head as she spots him.

Coach

He's a bit older than the other survivors, so he's not wasting any time in making his point. As his adoration for the newbie dawns upon him, he knows that he should get it out of the way so that things don't feel awkward later down the road after working through it together. His gestures are more attentive, and his words are sweet as he tells them to him. It's heart warming to see him in action, at least it is to Roch and Ellis. Nick sees the PDA as 'sickening', but that's just Nick. Coach jokingly tries to offer him some advice on how to handle a gun that he's not too familiar with, and is pleasantly surprised when he takes him up on that offer. The new guy has him feeling years younger when he slides up into his arms for the example.

Chances are the rookie knows what he's doing, and Coach has seen him work it before. It's just nice not to be brushed off as the fat old guy who used to be in his prime back in his college days. He makes him feel as strong as he is wise, and that's probably why he got a crush on him in the first place. He hopes he's not being too forward or anything like that. It's the sort of nervousness that puts butterflies in his stomach, fluttering upward as he chuckles into a grin.

"What the hell am I gonna do with you?"

"For starters, we could go over there and loot that diner. I could KILL for a cheeseburger right about now"

He doesn't even know about the vice grip he has on his heart when he hears those words.

"Let's go get us a cheeseburger then!"

Okay so, this is my first time requesting something (social anxiety is a bitch😭) Also, my birthday was yesterday! (05-11) and I was wondering if I can have a little fun with Nick (my obsession since I was 6) please? Birthday smut maybe?🌚 If not totally understandable and I hope you have a wonderful week🤍

L4D2!Nick x GN!Reader, word count: 650 happy late birthday!! any excuse to write some nick smut, and i think since he's someone who would value any reason to spoil himself, he would extend that to someone who meant something to him too... 💙 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: fluff, risky sex, public sex (although is it public if it's just... zombies?), no lube (if he'd known he would have gone looking)

"It's not the best circumstances, but I don't think it'll get much better than this."

Nick sat beside you on the roof of the shitty motel. Supplies found, cleared out the infected, and now there was time to rest before you headed to the room you had barricaded up for a safe night's rest.

"At least it's nice out..."

The sunset was beautiful, warm, soft, and you couldn't help but marvel at how peaceful everything was. It seemed perfect for what you hoped was about to happen. Weeks of passive flirting, teasing, tension building between you both, it had all amounted to not very much. But you'd been counting the days, and today was your birthday. Surely, you hoped, all of the hints you dropped might mean Nick would give you something to celebrate the day.

"... so... here you go."

Nick passed you a small box, and you tried to hide the confusion, and the mounting disappointment, on your face.

"What? You don't like it? You haven't even opened it."

"Sorry, sorry, it's just... I didn't expect this. I didn't expect a gift."

"What were you expecting?"

The silence between you was deafening. Nick was a smart guy though, an accomplished guy. He knew that face. Knew that slight pout of the lips, the way your body leaned into him.

He took the gift from your hands and tossed it to the side, his hand skating up your thigh as he turned his body to you.

"Is this what you wanted?"

Biting your lip, you nodded. It was desperate, needy, but it was what you wanted. And he was quick to give it to you, turning his body and mounting you with ease, a knee sliding between your thighs, spreading them as he unbuckled his belt and unzipped his pants.

Nick pulled his cock out, stroking it, watching it get harder as he waited for you to pull your pants down and off, tossing them to the side, smiling wide with excitement.

"Wow, this really is what you wanted."

His eyes fell to your fingers, placed either side of your entrance, spreading yourself open for him. As he lined up the tip of his cock with your hole, he pressed his forehead to yours, his body as close as he could as he began to ride you.

Your fingers found their way to his hips, pulling them down harder, dragging their way back up to his shoulders and clinging tight to him as his cock disappeared entirely within you, sliding out to give you a moment of reprieve before he stretched you, filled you, once more.

Nick's panting was louder than your moans, the effort he was putting into pounding you taking his breath away from him, making you quiver as he slid in and out, sweat beading on his forehead, strands of dark, black hair falling into his face.

"Are you... are you close? Because I am, and it's your birthday so-"

You could feel him tensing up, a coiled spring ready to release, and you were close yourself, so you freed up your hands and provided yourself with the external stimuli you needed to get closer, to ride the waves of orgasm alongside him.

Nick was still first though, falling aprt completely with a wail and a shudder, flooding you with his seed with wreckless abandon. The feeling of him, warm and wet and sticky, twitching, pulsing as he shuddered through the last of his own climax, brought you to your own.

He stayed inside of you until you had stopped shivering, until your body came to a complete rest, and then he rolled back over and lay down on the roof beside you once more.

"The present... It was a candy bar. I had to wrap it pretty quick. And the box is... hastily made out of some cardboard I found on the ground. Wanna split the candy?"

Smiling, you reached to the side for the box, tossing it over to him.

It felt safe enough, at least for a moment, to let your guards down. You could focus your attention on Nick as he kissed you deeply, passionately, crashing into the barren shelves of the small, empty store. He only stopped when he had you up against the counter, watching you lean back on it, grinning up at him with a sneaky grin as you grabbed the lapels of his white suit jacket. But before you could pull him into another kiss, he stopped you, a raised eyebrow as he questioned you in a teasing tone.

"Risky... what if the others catch up with us? What if there's something spooky lurking upstairs?"

"Well, in that case, we don't have long to argue about it. Besides, there's nothing upstairs, it would have heard us by now."

"And the others? When they're done scavenging and come looking for us?"

"I don't really care what they see, they can look away if they want to."

You tugged on him again, desperate to feel his lips against yours but stopped once again, his forehead against you as he spoke.

"Oh yeah? You a little bit of an exhibitionist?"

His words were low, slow, and layered with a flirtatious and inquisitive energy that you couldn't help but lean into.

"Hm, wouldn't you like to know what I was into before all this."

"I really, really would."

Finally, he allowed himself to be drawn into you, a quick kiss to your lips before he began peppering them along your jaw line and down your neck, interspersed with his musings.

"I bet you were filthy... desperate... Pretending to be shy like you did with me... but I knew you were just ready for anything."

Nick tugged at your shirt, pulling it up slightly, running his surprisingly soft palms along your torso, scooping them around your back as he continued.

"A nasty, dirty little slut... Embarrassing really that I;ve had to stoop as low as you these days."

You could feel the cruel smile in his words, the satisfaction he found in teasing you, in degrading you, a power move he didn't have to make.

"Never happy unless you were getting fucked, huh?"

He pulled at your pants, working them down your legs enough that you were exposed before he turned you around, letting you find your balance on the counter before he unzipped his pants and positioned his cock at your entrance.

"Just a needy, greedy little whore."

"That's what I'm like now, Nicky. You have no idea what you missed out on before."

The tip of his cock slipped inside of you, and he let out a groan of pleasure that slid into a dismayed groan.

"Oh come on, sweetheart! You can't tell me that. You're going to ruin me."

"Let's have you ruin me first, then we'll see what I can do with whatever time we have left. I can let you in on some secrets."
