You're The Sugar In My Cookies: a Hello Neighbor Fanfic

By Roy Page

**Raven Brooks Middle School**

Nicky Roth was walking down the hallway, casually flipping through the pages of his science textbook. The upcoming test had been on his mind all morning, and he wasn't paying attention to much else. Maritza and Enzo were walking a few feet behind, deep in conversation about something trivial.

Finch, however, wasn't focused on her friends or the upcoming test. She was focused on one person—**Nicky**. Over the past few months, Finch had noticed something about herself that she couldn't quite explain. At first, it had started with little things: watching Nicky during class, finding herself laughing at his jokes even when no one else did, and feeling oddly flustered whenever he was near.

Finch's Mind: Why is this happening? she wondered, clutching her notebook tighter. He's just...Nicky. Weird, quiet Nicky. Why do I keep staring at him like some idiot?

Finch's heart raced as she continued to watch Nicky, who was now leaning against his locker, talking to Maritza about their plans for the afternoon.

Maritza: "So, Nicky, what's the plan today? More spying on Peterson?"

Nicky: "Yeah, I think so. He's been acting weird lately."

Maritza: "When isn't he?"

Finch hesitated before approaching them, trying to play it cool. As she neared, she felt her palms grow sweaty. She wanted to talk to Nicky, but she didn't want Maritza around. Not because she didn't like her, but because Finch felt like Maritza always had Nicky's attention.

Finch: "Hey... Nicky."

Nicky turned his head and gave her a small smile, his usual, easygoing expression in place.

Nicky: "Oh, hey, Finch. What's up?"

Finch's heart skipped a beat. She opened her mouth to respond, but her mind went blank. She quickly forced out the first thing that came to her mind.

Finch: "Uh, nothing, just...wanted to ask if you got the notes from last class."

Nicky: "Yeah, I've got them. Do you need them?"

Finch: "Yeah...yeah, that'd be great."

As Nicky reached into his backpack to retrieve his notes, Finch felt her face grow warm. She quickly glanced at Maritza, who raised an eyebrow but said nothing. Maritza was the type who noticed things, and Finch didn't want her catching on.

Nicky handed the notes to Finch, his fingers brushing hers ever so slightly. Finch felt like electricity had shot through her hand, and she instinctively pulled away, her face turning even redder.

Nicky: "You alright?"

Finch: "Y-yeah, I'm fine. Thanks, Nicky."

Maritza: "You look a little flushed, Finch. Are you feeling okay?"

Finch: "I'm fine, I swear!"

She quickly turned on her heel and walked away before she could embarrass herself any further. As she hurried down the hallway, her mind raced with the same thought that had been haunting her for weeks.

Finch's Mind: I like him. I actually like him.

Later that day, Finch found herself in the **school courtyard**

during lunch, nervously biting into her sandwich while stealing glances at Nicky, who was sitting with Maritza, Enzo, and Ivan. Every time she looked at him, her heart raced, and she felt a sinking feeling in her chest. What if Maritza liked him too? She and Nicky were always together, and Finch couldn't deny they had chemistry. But Finch couldn't help herself.

Ivan: "You've been acting weird lately. What's up?"

Finch: "Nothing. I'm just...thinking about the test."

Ivan smirked, not buying the excuse for a second.

Ivan: "Yeah, right. You've been staring at Nicky like he's the last cookie in the jar. Come on, Finch, just admit it—you like him, don't you?"

Finch's face turned bright red.

Finch: "Shut up! Keep your voice down!"

Ivan: "I knew it! You totally like him!"

Finch: "Okay, fine! Maybe I do. So what?"

Ivan: "No wonder you have lots of pictures of him explain this." Ivan took out a few pictures of nicy that finch secretly took.

Finch: "HEY where did you got them." She snatch them from ivans hand. "Wait a mintue what did you do to the other." She pulled ivan grabbing his cloth.

Ivan: "Umm delroy took them."

Finch: "AND?"

Ivan: "And he hand them to nicky."

Finch's Mind: Oh no... Nicky has those pictures? Panic surged through Finch as she tightened her grip on Ivan's shirt, her mind racing. This can't be happening!

Finch: "You let Delroy give Nicky the pictures? Are you kidding me, Ivan?"

Ivan tried to squirm out of Finch's grasp, his eyes wide with regret.

Ivan: "Hey, calm down! I didn't think it was a big deal. Delroy thought it was some kind of prank—"

Finch: "A prank?!" she nearly screamed, her heart thudding wildly in her chest. What if Nicky thinks I'm some kind of weirdo stalker? She released Ivan, burying her face in her hands as embarrassment flooded over her.

Ivan: "Hey, maybe Nicky hasn't even looked at them yet. You can still fix this!"

Finch groaned, knowing she had no choice now. She had to confront Nicky before things got any worse. Taking a deep breath, she stood up, determined.

Finch: "I'll talk to him. But if he thinks I'm weird after this, Ivan, I swear you're going down."

Finch's nerves were at an all-time high as she made her way to the library after lunch. She knew Nicky often hung out there, either studying or drawing in his sketchbook. She took a deep breath before walking in.

There he was, sitting at a table near the window, scribbling in his notebook. Finch swallowed hard and forced herself to walk up to him.

Nicky looked up as she approached, offering a smile that immediately made her heart do a somersault.

Nicky: "Hey, Finch. What's up?"

Finch stood there, her words caught in her throat. This was it—the moment she had to confront him about the pictures. She shifted on her feet nervously.

Finch: "Nicky, I... um... I need to talk to you about something. Did Delroy... uh, give you anything today?"

Nicky's expression shifted slightly as he furrowed his brow.

Nicky: "Oh, those pictures?" He reached into his backpack and pulled out the small stack of photos.

Finch's face went beet red as Nicky set them on the table between them. Her mind raced for an excuse, but nothing seemed good enough.

Nicky: "I didn't really get it. These are photos of me, theres one when i fall asleep in my desk, theres one when i was just alone near a tree." He looks at finch with a small smile, he stond up and grabs the photoes with one hand finch backs and hits a wall her face turning red.

Nicky: "I know you took these right?" He said with a smirk face.

Finch's heart pounded in her chest as Nicky leaned closer, still holding the pictures in his hand. Her back was pressed against the wall, and her face burned with embarrassment. She opened her mouth to respond, but the words stuck in her throat.

Finch's Mind: He knows! What do I say?

Finch: "I... I... yeah, I took them..." She could barely look him in the eyes. "But it's not what you think!"

Nicky chuckled softly, his smirk never fading. He looked back at the pictures, flipping through them casually.

Nicky: "So, why'd you take them?" His tone was teasing, but there was a softness to it, as if he wasn't upset—just curious.

Finch squeezed her eyes shut for a moment, gathering her courage. I can't believe I'm actually doing this, she thought.

Finch: "I don't know, okay? I just... I couldn't help it! I was always looking at you, and I guess it just sort of happened." She finally looked up at him, her voice dropping. "It was dumb, I know. You probably think I'm some kind of creep now."

Nicky blinked in surprise. The teasing smirk faded from his face, replaced with something more thoughtful. He wasn't laughing anymore, and Finch's heart pounded even louder in her ears.

Nicky: "No, I don't think you're a creep, Finch." His voice was soft, gentle even. "Honestly, I think it's kind of... sweet?"

Finch's eyes widened in shock. Sweet? Did he really just say that?

Finch: "Wait, what?"

Nicky rubbed the back of his neck, looking a little embarrassed himself for the first time.

Nicky: "Look, I get it. It's kind of awkward, but... I'm not mad, Finch. I just didn't expect you'd be... interested in me like that."

Finch's Mind: He knows. He totally knows.

She felt her stomach flip at his words. Was this actually happening? Finch didn't know whether to feel relieved or even more embarrassed.

Finch: "I... well, yeah. I like you, Nicky," she admitted quietly, feeling like she was about to faint. "I've liked you for a while now."

Nicky was silent for a moment, studying her face, and Finch braced herself for the rejection she was sure was coming.

But then, to her absolute shock, Nicky smiled—a real, genuine smile.

Nicky: "I kinda like you too, Finch."

Finch's breath caught in her throat.

Finch: "You... you do?"

Nicky nodded, his cheeks faintly red now.

Nicky: "Yeah, I do. I didn't really know how to say anything, but... I guess this makes things a little easier, huh?"

For the first time that day, Finch felt like she could finally breathe. She couldn't believe it. Nicky actually liked her back!

Finch: "So... what now?"

Nicky grinned, looking a little more like his usual, laid-back self.

Nicky: "How about we hang out after school? Just you and me?"

Finch's heart soared, and she couldn't help but smile back.

Finch: "Yeah, I'd like that."

As they walked out of the library together, Finch couldn't stop the warm, fluttery feeling in her chest. Maybe things weren't so bad after all.

As the sun began to set, casting a warm glow over Raven Brooks Middle School, Finch found herself walking side by side with Nicky, a stash of freshly baked cookies nestled in her backpack. She had baked them that morning, hoping to impress him with something sweet, and now, she couldn't help but feel giddy as they made their way toward his house.

Nicky: "So, you actually made these yourself?" he asked, glancing over at her with genuine curiosity.

Finch: "Yeah, I thought you might like them. It's my secret recipe." She smiled, feeling proud of her little culinary creation.

Nicky laughed softly, his warm gaze making her heart flutter. "I can't wait to try them. You know, I didn't expect you to be such a great baker."

Finch blushed, brushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "Well, I try. Baking is kind of my thing."

They arrived at Nicky's doorstep, and Finch dug through her bag, pulling out a cookie she had saved just for him.

Finch: "Here, try this one!"

Nicky accepted the cookie, his fingers brushing against hers once more, sending a spark of electricity up her arm. He took a bite, his eyes widening in surprise.

Nicky: "Wow, that's not bad! It tastes amazing!" He paused, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "You're also amazing."

Finch's heart raced at his compliment, and she felt a blush creeping up her cheeks. Nicky waved goodbye, heading inside while Finch turned to walk home, her mind racing with excitement.

As she walked past a nearby bush, she suddenly spotted a perfect hiding spot. She crouched down, feeling a mix of joy and embarrassment. Her heart raced as she recalled Nicky's words—"You're also amazing."

With her camera in hand, she snapped a quick picture of him through the window.

Finch's Mind: What's wrong with me? She chuckled softly to herself, feeling both giddy and shy.

Finch: "He likes cookies... and he likes me." She grinned to herself, unable to shake the warmth blossoming in her chest.

As the picture slid out of the camera, Finch gazed at the image of Nicky, a small smile spreading across her face. She hugged the photo tightly to her chest, as if she were really embracing him.

Finch: "I wish I could keep you with me all the time."

With that, she carefully tucked the picture away in her backpack and began her walk.

Deep Below Ground - Part 2: Taken

By William F. Fazworth.

Before I begin, ABOUT DAMN TIME!

Hey y'all, it's been awhile since I continued my Minch (Maritza X Finch) fic set in my HN AU, Masks of The Ravens.

As a small recap, last time in the Prologue, both of our loving crows have been taken below after discovering that Mya is most likely dead.

For more info, go and read it!

But now it's time to see what happens to our dynamic duo as they awake...

Deep Below Ground.

????, October 7th 1996:

"Mari? Mari?!"

The echoing voice buzzes through the mind of Maritza Esposito, her head aching from... what happened actually? The girl wondered that as she tried to sit up right, she could slowly begin to make out the buzzing sound as the lone lightbulb, the soft floor really being a mattress, and the face in front of her... it was Finch.

"Mari are you okay?!"

"Ugh... what happened?"

"He... he caught us."

Maritza sprung back to life almost as if her reflexes demanded it, the revelation, it can't be possible?! It... it's all coming back to her, the bloody shovel, the loud bang.... the memorial dedicated to Mya.

Mr. Peterson must've killed her.

"NO!" Maritza screamed, "H-How long have I been out?!" She asked Finch, grabbing his arms in a panic, she quickly answered "I-I think six hours?? I-I don't know, I'm losing track." He added on, "I don't know why we even ended up here together, maybe the others are together too?" She asked with a sense of desperation in her mouth.

Maritza on the other hand was still in disbelief, she failed, she failed her mission to free the others, to save Nicky, to save the other Peterson kids... the only thing she succeeded at was finding out Mya's fate. "Wait what about Ivan? Is he captured?" Mari asked, Finch shook her head "Not a clue, all I know is that we're stuck right here and I'm starving, all I hope is that Peterson doesn't leave us to starve-"

The door suddenly swings open and in came their captor, Mr. Peterson.

The large man was intimidating, his face almost shrouded by the shadow lying outside that door before he entered the basement door. Maritza got on her feet and held Finch back, ready to shield her. That was when she noticed what was on the man's hands, a tray with plates of what appear to be pieces of chicken, there was also bottles of water on said tray. The man simply placed the tray down, saying "Your food for the night, that's all." He then simply walked back into the darkness, Mari tried to seize the opportunity to run out as he turned his back, but she was too late, the door shutting in her face.

"HEY!" She screamed, pounding her fists on the door "LET US OUT!" She screamed whilst continuing to bang on the door. As if like clockwork, she could hear a sound come from behind the walls, it was... carnival music.

"It's starting again."

Maritza turned to Finch, seeing her look almost frustrated "I thought that music was gone for good." The young girl looked at her friend with a confused expression, has this music been playing for awhile? And why does it seem so... familiar? "How long has this been playing?" She asked.

Finch slid down by a nearby wall onto the floor "Forever." She muttered, her hands practically covering his ears at this point "I just want this music to stop, it was fine at first but now it's just irritating." He added on. As this went on, Maritza looked around the room a bit further, there was a small porta potty in the corner, straight out of the school's outdoor yard. There's windows and outside them were drawings of a fake outside, lit up by some sort of glow. And of course there was the mattresses on the floor, each containing a pillow and blanket, though not covered in sheets.

"This... this is a fake home, isn't it?"

The realization dawned on the two young teens, combining all the aspects with the fact that they were being fed? Peterson wasn't kidnapping kids to kill them, he's kidnapping them to force them to live down here.

Maritza grabbed the tray of food and walked over to Finch "There's no way we're leaving, at least, not now. We might as well make ourselves company." She offered the latter the tray of food, Finch nodded, with Maritza sitting by next to him.

The two looked at each other as they took a bite.

Wondering what will happen to them.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you all once again for reading this, sorry for the late update, hopefully college won't get in my way for the rest of the series.

We're pretty much halfway through and I hope your ready for the next one, though I must warn you.

It really isn't for the faint of heart.

What I imagine finch,delroy and Ivan would’ve been like if the pilot turned into the full series

(just to note I think the pilot characters are supposed to be based off their game counterparts so what I think how they would act is how I think they act in game,also I feel like finch delroy and Ivan would join the gang throughout the show)

Ivan-Ivan would be a really nerdy person,fixating on his machines,he would be really excited to use them to help save Nicky.I feel like Maritza Enzo and Trinity would meet Ivan when he would be sitting alone at lunch working on a invention (also he would be highly autistic coded)

Finch-finch would not be a asshole,she’s very quiet and tough but she’s incredibly strong,her scout skills come to good use when breaking in.Maritza would think finch is so cool,idolizing her I feel like they would’ve had a big sister little sister relationship (and while I do ship finch x Maritza in the full show I wouldn’t in the pilot universe since one,Maritza and Nicky have a lot of chemistry and since the pilot is technically a separate universe so I ship them and two Maritza is a completely different character in the pilot and three,we don’t even see finch in the pilot.hopefully that made sense)

Delroy-I feel like delroy would be a lot like beast boy from ttg but way less gross,he’s quite dumb but is really good at sneaking around.I feel like the gang would meet him when sneaking around in the sewers and then getting scared by him (like a mix of the beginning of search and rescue and HNWTRB ep 3)

Srry if this was really messy I Just wanted to put my thoughts out there)

Rp Search

In this year of Our Lord 2023, Omegle has fallen. (RIP) So here I am, laying all of this out, desperate to find more rp partners. I am 27, so I am only really interested in rping with people that are 21+. I am interested in both fandom and OC rps, depending on the mood and all of that. I will list the fandoms I'm looking for, as well as who I play, and general themes. I am a third person, literate roleplay, I stick to 1-2 paragraphs, but the length can always fluctuate depending on the roleplay and my roleplay partners. When it comes to RPs, I like them light and soft. I also like them dark and heavy, with lots of Whump, Angst, and Hurt/Comfort, as well as some darker themes that would require trigger warnings, all of which will be discussed privately, of course.

I prefer MxM for fandom rps, although there are some small exceptions for specific ships. I"m more open to MxF and FxF, and other pairings with more OC rps. With most Fandom Rps, I am looking for Shipping Rps, aka a Merthur rp, Kylux Rp, etc

Fandoms!

Your The Sugar In My Cookie: A Hello Neighbor Fanfic

By Roy Page

"An Acorn"

Ivan leaned casually against the wall, his arms crossed in a casual but confident stance, a sly grin spreading across his face. He looked over at Delroy, who was standing nearby, carrying a small stack of papers along with a few snacks he had probably grabbed from the cafeteria. Ivan could barely contain his amusement as he watched Delroy’s expression—smug, relaxed, and completely oblivious to what he had set in motion.

“So, it was you who put the picture up, huh?” Ivan said, raising one eyebrow, making it clear he already knew the answer.

Delroy just gave a careless shrug, not even pretending to feel the least bit guilty or concerned about what he’d done. “Yeah, it was me,” he replied, his tone completely nonchalant.

Ivan sighs "Finch is gonna kill you for that.”

But Delroy just chuckled, rolling his eyes as if the whole thing was no big deal at all. “Oh, really? I don't think Finch has it in her,” he said dismissively, as though the very thought was laughable.

Just as he finished speaking, the classroom door flew open with a force that made Ivan flinch, and there, standing in the doorway, was Finch. Her face was flushed an intense shade of red, her eyes blazing with anger as she focused on Delroy with a look that could cut through steel. Ivan took a step back as Finch stormed forward, looking like she was ready to tackle Delroy right there.

“You are so dead, Delroy,” Finch seethed, her voice low but laced with an unmistakable fury.

Delroy’s grin faltered, but he quickly tried to regain his usual bravado. “What, are you gonna fight me or something?” he asked, raising his hands in mock surrender. “Come on, Finch, you don’t want to do this.”

But Finch had already made up her mind. Without hesitating, she lunged forward, pushing him back with all the strength she could muster. Delroy stumbled, barely managing to stay on his feet, his hands going up in a poor attempt to defend himself. “Hey, hey, relax! It was just a joke!” he said, but Finch’s glare only grew more intense.

Before Finch could go any further, the classroom door swung open once again, and in walked Mr. Murtaugh, with his usual carefree expression and casual grin. He didn’t seem the least bit phased by the commotion, even as he looked around the room at the small crowd that had started to gather.

“huh... Has anyone seen Abena—hmm… never mind,” he said, trailing off as a random bag flew across the room, missing him by mere inches. Mr. Murtaugh ducked just in time, a bewildered but amused grin smile on his face.

“Whoa, that’s a first,” he muttered to himself before glancing around at the students who were all frozen in place, caught somewhere between shock and amusement.

With a slight shrug, he addressed the class with a grin smile. “You know what? Carry on, kids. Just… no major damage, alright?”

And with that, he strolled out of the room, shutting the door softly behind him as if nothing had happened.

The second Mr. Murtaugh left, Finch and Delroy resumed their scuffle in the middle of the classroom, while Ivan, watching from the sidelines, just nervously and stepped back, not wanting to get caught in the middle. "Only in Ravens Brooks" he said.

Later that afternoon, Finch found herself sitting in the school clinic, perched on the edge of one of the examination tables, looking down at the tiny scratch on her arm that had been the only real consequence of her fight with Delroy. A small bandage covered the scratch, but otherwise, she had come out of it mostly unscathed. Delroy, on the other hand, hadn’t been as lucky—he’d already been sent to the clinic earlier, sporting what looked like the beginning of a black eye and a swollen lip.

The door to the clinic creaked open, and Finch looked up to see Nicky strolling in, his usual relaxed smile on his face as he looked around and then spotted her. He walked over and sat down next to her, his presence instantly putting her at ease.

“You okay? I didn’t know you had it in you,” he said, giving her a gentle nudge as he leaned back against the wall.

Finch looked up at him, her cheeks still slightly flushed from her anger, but his calm expression softened her mood a little. “I can’t believe Delroy did that. He cant just show that picture,” she said, frustration still evident in her voice.

Nicky just chuckled, leaning forward as he spoke. “Yeah, but you’ve got to admit, it was pretty funny. Though, I get it… he went too far,” he replied, his voice soft and reassuring.

“Ugh, don’t remind me,” Finch groaned, letting out a long sigh as she ran a hand through her hair in exasperation. “I just hate how everyone’s making such a big deal out of it. It’s like I’m being put on display.”

Nicky gently nudged her again, his hand brushing hers in a comforting gesture. “Hey, don’t worry about it. People will forget eventually. It’s just one picture, right?” he said, his voice calm and steady, as if he truly believed everything would blow over.

Finch managed a faint smile. “Yeah, I guess you’re right,” she replied, her tone a bit lighter now.

“And besides,” Nicky added with a playful smile, “it’s kind of cool. You’ve got the whole school talking about you now.”

Finch raised an eyebrow, trying to hold back a laugh as she looked at him with mock annoyance. “Oh, yeah? You think that’s cool?” she teased, a hint of a smile on her lips.

Nicky shrugged, the playful glint in his eyes making her heart race. “I mean, it’s better than being invisible, right?” he replied, his tone lighthearted.

Finch laughed, feeling a warmth spread through her. Being around Nicky made everything seem a little easier, a little more bearable.

Later that day, Finch was back at her usual spot in the cafeteria, sitting by her cookie stand and trying her best to focus on preparing the cookies for the day. But her thoughts kept drifting back to everything that had happened—the fight, the picture, that had taken over her morning or whatever. She glanced up, spotting Nicky as he walked past, and waved him over.

“Hey, Nicky! Over here!” she called, gesturing for him to join her.

Nicky smiled as he walked over, looking around curiously. Finch glanced around to make sure no one was watching, then motioned for him to duck down behind the cookie stand with her. With a grin, she pulled him under the stand, laughing at the surprised look on his face.

“Whoa, what’s going on?” he asked, looking around the cramped space beneath the cookie stand with an amused expression.

Finch grinned, leaning back against the stand. “I just wanted a little peace and quiet,” she explained, a mischievous glint in her eyes. “And besides, no one’s going to come looking for us back here.”

Nicky laughed softly, leaning back against the wall inside the hidden space beneath the stand. “You know, this is probably the weirdest spot I’ve ever been in,” he said, giving her a playful smirk. “But it’s kind of fun.”

“Yeah, I thought you might like it,” Finch said, reaching into her bag and pulling out a small Ziploc bag. She held it up for Nicky to see. Inside was a single cookie, carefully wrapped just for him. She handed it to him, a little shy but smiling. “Here, try this. I made it for you.”

Nicky took the bag, surprised and touched. As Finch watched, he unzipped it and unwrapped the cookie. He took a bite, his expression thoughtful at first. Then, to her relief, his face lit up in a grin.

“Wow, Finch, this is amazing!” he said, sounding genuinely impressed. “What’s in it? There’s something really good in there…”

Finch laughed as she watched him enjoying it. “Hazelnuts,” she said proudly. “I thought you’d like something different.”

“Well, I love it,” Nicky replied, looking at her warmly as he finished the last bite of the cookie.

They sat there under the cookie stand for a while, just enjoying each other’s company, until the school day started winding down. As students began trickling out of the cafeteria, Nicky spotted Finch’s camera next to her bag and, grinning, picked it up.

“Smile,” he said, aiming the camera at her.

Before Finch could say anything, he took the picture, catching them both grinning as they sat together under the stand. She rolled her eyes, but she couldn’t help laughing.

Nicky raised an eyebrow, his gaze softening as he looked at her. “I think I might like you too, Finch.”

Finch’s heart skipped a beat, her cheeks warming as she felt the weight of his words sink in. She managed a shy smile, feeling a bit breathless. “You know, I like you too, Nicky."

Later that night, Finch was lying in bed in her pajamas, her hair loose as she stared up at the ceiling, replaying the day in her mind. She sighed, smiling to herself at the memories.

Turning over, she felt something lumpy under her pillow. She sat up, lifted the pillow, and gasped as acorns spilled onto her bed. She giggled, realizing who must have “gifted” them.

“It must have been that squirrel again,” she whispered, laughing as she gathered the acorns up.

Settling back under her blankets, Finch reached over to her nightstand and picked up the picture Nicky had taken—the two of them under the cookie stand. She traced the edges of the photo with her fingers, holding it close to her chest as she lay back, feeling a soft happiness as she drifted to sleep, hugging the picture.
