f1gossip Trouble in paradise for Charles and Y/N? Charles Leclerc was spotted on a long walk on one of Monaco's more secluded islands with a mysterious brunette and his and Y/N's dog, Leo, this weekend. Sources say the pair were often looking to see if there were cameras around, the two of them giggling as they held hands and played with the puppy. Y/N L/N, Charles girlfriend of 2 years, is currently said to be on a trip home to see family, we wonder if the two have broken up or if Charles is back to his old ways?

f1gossip Carlos Sainz and Y/N L/N were spotted at dinner last night. The two enjoyed a meal before taking a stroll along the Monaco pier front where, as pictured, the pair were in high spirits. We're happy to see Y/N looking so happy following the revelation that her ex-boyfriend, and Carlos' current F1 teammate, had cheated on her. The two were then joined by Y/N's current roommate and F1 driver, Lando Norris, who then whisked them off to a local nightclub. We continue to send Y/N our support and hope to see more of her happy side.

fan i don't think i've ever seen y/n laugh like that, we love to see it

fan this coupled with the photos of charles and his girly arguing in the paddock 🤭🤭 we know who won the breakup

fan why do i kinda think carlos and y/n would be cute together ↳ fan woah, she's only been broken up with charles for a few months and under really shitty circumstances, she needs time to heal ↳ fan ofc ofc!!! i just mean when she's over ch*rles, the two would make a really good couple

fan happy y/n and happy carlos, my two favourite things ❤️

f1gossip A surprise twist in the Charles and Y/N drama? Following Sainz's back to back victory in Australia and then Silverstone, Y/N and Carlos shared what looks like a loving kiss. Eagle eyed fans then spotted Charles on camera arguing with a Ferrari employee in the garages following the Y/NCarlos moment. Finally, Carlos was spotted outside where he was soon joined by Y/N, the two leaving the circuit hand in hand. It is noted Charles' new beau was nowhere to be seen.

Crybaby (Logan x Reader)

warnings: AFAB!reader, age gap, mean!logan, yelling, dacraphyillia, slightly dark, vaginal fingering, 18+ minors dni, divider from @strangergraphics

You can feel Logan’s eyes staring holes into the back of your head on the jet. You fucked up on this mission and he made sure you knew it. Loudly. In front of the rest of the team. He practically ripped you a new one with his harsh words, insulting your intelligence, strength, and ability to use your powers. Jean, the sweet angel she is, gently talked Logan down and saved you from facing more of his anger. Unfortunately, no one will be able to stop him once you get back to the mansion. 

When you land, you hurry off the jet so Logan isn’t able to catch up with you. He made his point perfectly clear earlier, and you don’t need to hear any more of his yelling. You gather your things and make it back to your room without interruption, leaving you alone to clean up from the mission and deal with the day’s events.

Earth-wielding powers aren’t something to use when distracted, but so many things were happening at once that you slipped up. Storm got caught between two large rocks that you had moved and she was almost seriously hurt. Luckily you caught your mistake before any damage was done, but Logan still found your actions unacceptable. Guilt stews in your stomach as you think about what could’ve happened to Storm. You never would have forgiven yourself if a mistake you made got one of your teammates killed.

By the time you’re fresh from the shower and dressed, it’s late. You should head to bed and forget this mess of a day, but you can’t let yourself. You decide to go to the library, a place you usually go for privacy away from those with enhanced hearing. You sit in one of the armchairs with your legs tucked under you. The fireplace in the room is always lit and it give an orange glow to the cozy room. 

As you sit, you remember all of the things Logan had said to you. It was as if he knew exactly how to get under your skin, targeting all of your insecurities like they were written on your face. Those insults from anyone else may not have hurt as much as they did coming from Logan, the man you’ve been in a relationship with for weeks now. You can’t stop the tears leaking from your eyes, and your stomach burns with shame as you recall what Logan had called you earlier. A crybaby. 

“You’re a pathetic little crybaby who doesn’t deserve a spot on this fuckin’ team.”

He spit the mean words at you like he has been waiting to say them for a while. You thought you were getting closer with Logan, perhaps making a romantic connection. Your relationship with him started as something purely physical, but you felt like you were growing closer to him. Perhaps that was wishful thinking. You’re surprised you held back tears then, but now, away from prying eyes, you let them fall. You muffle your sobs in your shirt sleeves, but you’re obviously not quiet enough. Your attention is grabbed by a figure standing in the doorway. 

Logan’s shadowed figure blocks the dim light from the hall as he looks in on you, sobbing in the dark like the crybaby he knew you were. He looks uncomfortable like he’s trying to find something to make this awkward encounter better, but he comes up short. Instead, he walks into the room and behind your chair. He places a heavy hand on your shoulder and squeezes it slightly.

“I’m sorry about today,” he says after some time. “I… didn’t mean to yell at you like that.” You don’t respond because, honestly, what could you say to that? He humiliated you in front of everyone. Logan says your name gently, wanting you to respond, but you stay quiet.

With a sigh, he steps around the chair and squats down in front of it so he can be at eye level with you. “Please say something,” he urges.

You look up from your lap at him, and you can’t help the butterflies in your stomach. He looks beautiful in the glow from the fireplace, but his features are blurred a bit by the tears in your eyes. His expression grows even more guilty when he sees your tear-stained cheeks and glassy eyes.

“Aren’t you gonna make fun of me?” you ask, voice thick.

Logan’s eyes furrow. “What are you talking about?”

“You were right. I am a crybaby,” you mumble.

“I’m sorry, sweetheart. I didn’t mean that, I just… I got carried away.” Logan pauses for a moment. “Let me make you feel better. Please.”

Hearing The Wolverine plead for permission to console you is unexpected, but not unwelcome. You nod and he gently scoops you into his arms before sitting down in the place you just were. He settles you on his lap and he wraps his arms around you. You bury your face in his chest, breathing in the musky smell that you’ve come to love. You let yourself cry into his shirt, making the fabric damp with your tears.

“I’ve got you,” he whispers.

He lets you cry for a little while longer before the guilt catches up to him again. “Sweetheart?”

You look up at him with your glassy doe eyes and he can’t bring himself to look away. You’re so sweet, so innocent, so naive, and sometimes it gets the better of you. Logan looks at your red-rimmed eyes and your swollen lips and he thinks you’re beautiful. He wants to kiss those tears away and he feels like a monster for it. He’s the reason you’re crying, for fuck’s sake.

“Yeah?” you ask.

Whatever he was going to say went out the window. Sometimes Logan feels like he is no better than an animal, especially during moments like these. The girl he cares most about is in his lap, shaking like a leaf because of what he said to her, and the only thing the feral part of his brain can think about is how badly he wants her. It’s the predator instinct, to want to pounce on the helpless little lamb. He knows it’s wrong, he knows he hurt her and this is no way to make up for it. But sometimes he just can’t help himself.

“You’re my little crybaby, ain’t ya?” he asks. The question is condescending, but he keeps that same sympathetic tone. 

Your brows furrow. “What?”

“I’m sorry about before, baby, I really am. But you cryin’ like this in my lap… you’re so goddamn sweet.”

Logan brushes your bottom lip with the pad of his thumb and you instinctively open your mouth and let him in. You suck on his thumb gently as fat tears fall down your cheeks again. He watches with half-lidded eyes as you take more of his thumb into your mouth like you’re greedy for more, despite being so upset.

“You cry so fuckin’ pretty,” he praises, and just to be an asshole, he adds, “I should make you do it more often.”

You pout around his finger, which makes him grin down at you. “Let me make it up to you, baby. Would my dick make you feel better?”

You should tell him to fuck off. How dare he berate you and then expect to fuck you a few hours later. You should tell him that your relationship is done. You shouldn’t want him to fuck you senseless right now. 

Squeezing your eyes shut, you nod. Gently, Logan adjusts you in his lap so your straddling his thighs. Only the small pair of cotton panties that you were wearing under your sweatshirt and his jeans separate you. He undones the fly of his pants and frees his cock easily, the weight of you on top of him not hindering him any. His fingers find the elastic band of your panties and he pulls them to the side easily, exposing your wet pussy. 

When he feels your slick on his finger, he gives you a questioning look. You feel like explaining that it turns you on when a man comforts you is a conversation for another day, so you just shrug innocently.

Logan works his fingers inside of you to prep him for his cock. He’s big, but thankfully it doesn’t take too much work to get you ready for him. Both of you are impatient by nature, and right now especially, you’re not in the mood for much foreplay.

Once Logan deems you ready, he positions you and sinks you down on his cock. Your greedy cunt swallows every inch like the good girl you are and he praises you for it. Once you’re fully seated, you try to ride him but he stops you.

“I’ve got you, doll. I’ll do the work and you can keep crying it out. How’s that sound?” he asks in that infuriatingly hot voice he only uses when he fucks you. Leaning forward, you hide your face in the crook of his neck and you nod. “Yeah, that’s my good little crybaby.”

reblogs are always appreciated and my inbox is open for logan thoughts!

▨ "our child is an angel"

JJK characters when called into teacher's office about their child

Characters : gojo, toji, nanami, sukuna

Genre : fluff, crack

Warnings : I use female pronouns

A/n : Toji is not a deadbeat dad in this one because yeah. Wish he was canonical a hot dilf but we can never get what we want where Gege is concerned 😟

⟢ gojo satoru ␥

"When your son was asked to wait to go to the bathroom, he replied 'I will pee on your floor then bitch.'" The teacher spoke solemnly.

Satoru immediately snorted which you gave him a death glare for, pinching his thigh harshly.

You frowned," Well, before I question why the teacher denied bathroom privileges..." you turned to your husband. Your son was pouting next to you both, looking away with narrowed eyes," That doesn't sound like him at all, does it Satoru?"

Satoru immediately agreed with you, shaking his head," N-no. Not at all. Who taught you that language, kiddo?"

His son looked at him with a betrayed expression, pointing at him accusingly "YOU did!" He exclaimed.

Satoru's smile was pained as you slowly turned your head to him, eyebrows furrowing,"... Thank you for your time, Mrs. Fiyumi. I will have a stern talking. With BOTH of them." Then you gave her the brightest smile," I think it's all the candy they've been eating, I think maybe it's time to cut down on it all, yeah?"

The teacher nodded in agreement with a knowing smile," Yes, I agree."

The two males simultaneously slouched back into their chairs with loud groans which they covered up with coughs when you glared at them.

Satoru mustered a charming grin, settling a loving hand on your shoulder," I've been meaning to go on a diet anyways, haha..."

You rolled your eyes and patted his hand with yours in a pitying way," shut up, my love."

"Dad! Grow a backbone, you lanky idiot!" Your son scoffed out disapprovingly.

The white-haired man's charming grin fell instantly and he glared beneath his glasses," shut up you-"

⟢ nanami kento ␥

"Yes, your daughter got into a fight with one of the boys and managed to split his lip." The teacher gestured to the little girl in the chair who was sitting oh so politely.

Nanami hummed lowly, brows furrowed," not good." He said with that disappointed drawl to his tone that could make anybody curl into themselves with shame, his own daughter cringing to herself.

You merely raised a brow at your daughter," That right? So she won?" You asked bluntly.

A warm hand settled on your knee, squeezing lovingly and as a warning," not the point, love." Nanami grunted out disapprovingly.

The girl grinned with her cute gap-tooth, blue eyes glinting with pride as she looked to her mother," I won!!" She chirped," he pulled my hair so I split his lip!"

Her parents stared on in silence before Nanami gave her a small smile filled with warmth," Good girl."

⟢ ryomen sukuna ␥

"Your daughter punched Midori-"

Sukuna held up a hand," Don't need to hear it. Let's go." He began to stand up, tugging his little girl by the hood of her hoodie.

You shook your head in disapproval at your husband and looked to the teacher," I'm sorry, can you give me more context?"

Sukuna scoffed," Babe. Its obviously about that rich kid again. The little shit who bullies her? Yeah. Don't give a fuck. I'm proud of my fuckin' daughter." He glared at the teacher and walked out of the room with his daughter following anxiously behind.

Your eye twitched before you stood up slowly, offering a pained smile to lighten the load," well, you heard the man. Thanks." You left as well, not before tugging on your husband's ear like a mother and giving your girl a kiss on the forehead and a promise of ice cream.

Sukuna crouched down to her level and pinched his daughter's cheek with a bored expression, eyes glinting in amusement at the sight of her nose scrunching up at the actions," Next time? Put her through endless torture and misery. I can teach you a few techniques--"

You had to step in before your husband created a potential serial killer.

⟢ fushiguro toji ␥

"Megumi got into a fight aga-"

Toji let out an obnoxiously loud yawn, wiping away the sleepy dust from his eyes as his wife fretted over their son's messy black hair.

"Ugh, I swear your hair drives me crazy, Megs. You definitely didn't get it from my genes." You muttered as you tried to smooth out the strands.

Megumi merely sighed and pushed your hands away with an uncomfortable frown etched onto his face," Mom. Listen to Mrs. Fiyumi." He scolded lightly.

"I am, I am." You whined to him, turning to face the teacher with a frown on your lips.

"You too, dad."

Toji blinked at his son before scoffing," I was, I was." He let out a fatherly grunt as he sat straight in his chair, large hand resting on your thigh as he did, looking to the teacher in boredom.

The teacher cleared her throat, giving the small child a thankful nod for keeping his parents in check," As I was saying, little Megumi got into a fight with a boy yesterday. This behaviour seems very unlike him, so I was just worried if there's anything going on at home lately that's stressing him out?"

Megumi's brows furrowed but he didn't open his mouth, sitting politely in his chair. You hummed," Well, I suppose he hasn't been getting a good amount of sleep lately. But that's all I can think of." You settled a hand on your husband's that was caressing your thigh gently.

Toji hummed," just apologise, Megs. An' we'll be on our way." He grumbled to his son, waving his free hand dismissively.

Megumi cleared his throat and stood up, bowing to his teacher, which shocked her a little," I'm sorry, Mrs. Fiyumi. I won't hit anyone again." When he stood to his full-height, he looked her straight in the eye," I hope your failed marriage is getting better." He stated in such a polite and genuine manner.

Toji bursted out laughing - cackling like a witch whilst you stared at your son in complete horror, tugging his hair scoldingly.

☒ Word Count: 2,653

"You- WHAT?" 

Angel shot up from his spot on your bed. His eyes widened, eyebrows knitting in perplexity.

"I know- I know! It's bad... but I wasn't thinking clearly!" You slumped under Angel's judgemental gaze, pulling your knees up to your chest from where you sat on your bed. 

"Toots, there is no way his pussy eating skills are good enough to fuck you that dumb!" You averted your gaze. Heat rose to your cheeks from Angel's crass words.

"Oh, but they are..." You mumbled before you felt two of Angel's hands grip your shoulders, shaking you out of frustration.

"Did you really have to pick an absolute psychopath to be the one to pop your cherry? Toots, you're gorgeous. You could have anyone you want!" You were flustered beyond comprehension as Angel stopped shaking you. Opting to glare at your heated face instead. 

"We didn't go all the way! Plus he's the one who's been pursuing me all this time- I didn't get it at first, and I still don't. But-" Your expression morphed into one of contemplation. Angel's jaw went slack as he impatiently awaited your next words. "But what?! Spit it out!"

"He said we've met before. In the living world. But I seriously don't ever remember meeting him." Angel nudged you to the side before slotting himself atop your bed once more. "Soo... what do you remember from your life?" 

You froze. 

Angel's inquiry filled your mind with more questions than answers. 

"I... not much," You paused, turning to face Angel before you continued. "The earliest memory I have is waking up in a hospital bed after surviving a blow to the head from some hunting accident." 

You closed your eyes, wracking your brain for every last detail you could remember; no matter how small. "I ended up falling into a coma only days after that mishap. The next thing I know, I'm in fucking hell." You chucked bitterly. Angel let out a laugh of his own. 

"No offense, babe, but that has to be one of the saddest fuckin' things I've ever heard," Angel outstretched his legs, overlapping them atop yours. "That accident, what else can you remember about it? Maybe that's the ticket!" 

Your eyes shot open from Angel's question. "Wait... before I fell into a coma, there was this nurse- she told me that I was led into the woods by a dangerous fellow," You paused, eyes scanning Angel's wildly as he perched himself forward. Literally hanging on the edge of his seat from your musings. 

"She told me the gunshot wound saved my life, fucking ironic now because It ended up killing me anyway. She also said that... the man who took me into the woods was a serial killer who had been on the run for decades. He ended up getting shot in the head that night, also. Except he died instantly..."

Angel was hanging on to every word you uttered. He could see the pieces falling into place from your look of awe. "What was the man's name, toots? What was it?!" Angel shouted a little louder than he intended. You jolted back from his outburst, taking in a shaky breath. You replayed that memory with the nurse over and over again. 

She had to have said it at some point. 

Come on! Think, think- think!

“Turns out the man you were out in those woods with was a wanted serial killer. That 𝘈⃒̅𝘭⃒̅𝘢⃒̅𝘴⃒̅𝘵⃒̅𝘰⃒̅𝘳⃒̅ fellow was an active murderer for decades! The papers say he was good at steering clear of the cops for all these years. The hunter wasn’t even aiming for you both. His target was a nearby deer.”

"His target was a nearby deer."

A deer... 

Again. 

Retrace.

"That ɹ̸o̸ʇ̸s̸ɐ̸ʅ̸Ɐ̸ fellow was an active murderer for decades! The hunter wasn’t even aiming for you both. His target was a nearby deer."

Fuck- it was just out of reach. 

One more time, one more fucking time. 

Think carefully. 

"The hunter wasn’t even aiming for That A͊l͖a̪sto̶̸̅r̷̦͍ fellow. His target was a nearby deer."

You gasped sharply, startling Angel. You felt your heart sink into your stomach as the last piece of the puzzle fell into place.

"Alastor... his name was Alastor." 

Your voice was distant as you spaced out. Angel's face blurred out of focus through your line of sight. 

"You've got to be fuckin' kidding me. That freak was going to kill you when you were still alive-? And now... you belong to him? Shit- toots! This is rough... and not the good kind of rough." 

Alastor sat at the piano. Staring at the keys with that ever-present smile— but not daring to strike a tune. 

You’ve been avoiding him again.

What was it going to take for you to realize that he was your fiancé on earth? 

Sure, his features were more creature than man, but at the end of the day; Alastor was still the same man you fell in love with. 

Maybe he should have held off from his… desires. 

Could you blame him, though? He’s been waiting nearly a century to be reunited with his beloved. 

You’re the person he thought about for all these lonely years in hell. The only solace for Alastor was the notion that you survived, lived a long happy life, and inevitably made it to the pearly gates. 

So imagine his despair when you showed up at the Hazbin Hotel, looking to be redeemed. 

Alastor recognized you immediately. He could spot that grin of yours in a crowd of billions. 

Smile at the world, and she smiles back at you. 

But— you didn’t even spare him the time of day. Alastor gave you the benefit of the doubt. Maybe you just needed some time to reignite your memory. 

And so, he gave you time. You’ll come around, Alastor thought. 

But he couldn’t have been more wrong, as much as he hated to admit it. 

He grew impatient— losing all of his resolve when you admitted to his voice reminding you of home. 

Alastor presumed maybe a passionate encounter would jumpstart your adoration for him. You had never breached that level of intimacy when you both were alive. You were adamant about waiting until marriage, but those dreams never came true. 

Yet even still, it was not enough. 

Was he really that forgettable to you? 

Suddenly, a knock on his door pulled him from his stupor. Alastor quickly cleared his throat, straightening his bowtie and taking steps toward his door. 

The second he swung the door open, he was met by the person who invaded his every thought; you. 

“What a pleasant surprise! Come in, my dearest.” Alastor piped up, stepping aside to let you into his safe haven. 

Your face was devoid of any vibrancy, and your eyes frantically avoided his. Alastor watched you closely as you hesitantly stepped past the threshold of his space. 

“To what do I owe the pleasure?” Alastor hummed as he shut the door before turning on his heel to face you. 

You rubbed at the sleeve of your dress nervously. Alastor’s mind instantly flashed the memory of your first meeting. 

The sight of you soothing yourself with a gentle caress to your bicep. Clammy hands seeping perspiration through that gorgeous vermilion dress of yours.  

“I-I remember you…” Your voice was barely above a whisper. Legs trembling from where you stood before him.

Your words caused Alastor’s heart to race wildly. 

At long last— you remember him! 

“I knew you would, my smart girl! Ah- you have no clue how elated I am to finally hear those words leave your lips!” He invaded your personal space without missing a beat. 

Alastor’s eyebrows knitted in confusion as you dodged his hand— that had full intention of clasping around your cheek. 

“Don’t… don’t touch me.” Your voice was shrill as you took a step back from him. 

Alastor took one step forward. 

“My darling, why are you being so cold? You know how much I loathe teasing.” Alastor forced out a chuckle as you took two steps back. 

Alastor took three steps forward this time. 

“You’re sick! You’re the one who’s been teasing me all this time— how dare you?!” You spat, raising your hands to push him away, but to no avail. 

Alastor grasped your wrists with his large palms. He gazed down at you with a frenzied look, grip tightening scarcely around your wrists. “Darling… this isn’t funny anymore.” His voice was low, and the corners of his lips twitched in irritation. 

“It never was funny to begin with! I mean, how could you try to kill me on earth and then think it’s okay to fool around with me in hell?!” You glared up at him, tears of frustration now rolling down your cheeks. 

Alastor’s grip loosened from your words. He was utterly astonished. "You think I... tried to kill you?" His voice was quiet, crimson orbs frantically searching yours. 

You grimaced at him, rolling your eyes before you shouted, "You led me out into the woods, and the next thing I know, I'm in the hospital with a gunshot wound to the head and no memories before waking up in a stiff hospital bed! Everything I know about you and the accident was spoon-fed to me by some crappy nurse!"

Alastor's smile dropped. He wasn't even aware of the frown that crossed his features. The only giveaway was the absence of that standard achy feeling in his cheeks from holding an everlasting grin. "Darling, I-I'm not following... you mean to tell me you... don't remember your life before that mishap?" 

You looked puzzled by Alastor's uncharacteristic display of distress. His hands slipped from your wrists as he wobbled backward. "Yeah, and It's your fault! If you didn't haul me out into those woods to kill me, I would still remember who I was! And my whole life before all this bullshit!" 

You took a step forward. 

"I would remember my family, my career, if I even fucking had one! I would remember my joyful memories, my painful ones, and— and- maybe I would remember somebody who actually loved me!" You furiously glared up at him. Pointing your index finger into his chest in an accusatory fashion. 

Alastor snapped at your last words. 

Somebody who actually loved you?

It was him.

It was always him. 

Was his love for you really that immemorable?

"You truly aren't joking... you... don't remember me." Alastor felt his heart shatter into a million pieces. You were the last thing keeping it intact. All that he felt in his chest now was your blunt fingernail piercing his skin from where you jabbed him. 

"I just told you I do! What the fuck are you talking about?!" Alastor could tell your patience was wearing thin. You were probably just as confused as he was but for all the wrong reasons. 

Alastor's arms fell limp against his sides. Yet his fists were balled up so tightly that he could hear the pitter-patter of his blood spilling onto the carpet from how deeply his nails sunk into the flesh of his palm. 

You weren't ever going to believe the truth, but Alastor still needed to try.

"My dearest... that is not how we met. And my intentions were not and never will be to end your life." Alastor paused, taking in a shaky breath before continuing. 

"You're frustrated about not remembering somebody that loved you, yes? As am I..." You tilted your head in confusion. Finally pulling your finger away from his wounded chest. "What the fuck are you trying to say, Alastor?" Your voice was laced with annoyance, and your scowl was unwavering. 

"Darling, that somebody that loved you was me-and still is. It will always be me," Alastor paused, hands now finding purchase on your shoulders. "That accident should have never happened! We were scheduled to be wed at the courthouse later that evening... but... we never... made it..."

Why were his cheeks burning unbearably so? 

And why was your countenance blurring before his very eyes? 

Alastor's grip on your shoulders was unwavering, but his hands now trembled. Your expression was one of perplexity as you shook your head incredulously. "I loved you in life and now in death. I've loved you all this time, my sweet girl. Nothing will ever change that! Please, I beg of you- you must believe me!"

The definitive radio static crackle to his voice was nowhere to be found. Instead, his voice was laced with desperation. You looked disoriented through his blurry gaze as you took a weary step back. 

Alastor felt wetness trickle down his burning cheeks. 

Oh, he was... crying?

The last time he wept was when he first arrived in this grim place otherwise known as Hell. The realization that he left you on earth all alone tore him up. Alastor was inconsolable for years.

You truly knew how to put him together just to rip him apart all over again, huh? 

There is no undoing grander than love itself. 

"I-I don't believe you..." Your voice was just above a whisper as you slipped out of his grasp and approached the doorway. You turned your back on him, literally and metaphorically. 

Alastor didn't miss a beat. He rushed to you, large palm slamming flat against the wooden door. "We worked at the same radio station! Your bitch of a friend Elaine and her parents took you in after your pill-addict parents abandoned you on your eleventh birthday!"

You let out a sharp gasp as he hovered over you. Alastor couldn't read your expression, with your face practically pressing into the wooden door. All he could see was the top of your head as he pushed his chest into your rigid back. His arm was outstretched, keeping the door shut and caging you in entirely. 

"It was love at first sight for me! We went dancing for our first date. Did you truly fail to notice how effortlessly we moved along the dancefloor at Charlie's last gathering? It's because deep down, your body remembers every dance we ever shared,"

Alastor flipped you over faster than you could process. Your back was now flush against the sturdy door, his arm still caging you in. He peered down at you as his thumb and index finger from his non-dominant hand grasped your chin, forcing you to meet his gaze.

"Every lingering touch..." 

He felt you tremble beneath his intense stare from how his chest now squashed against yours. Alastor's face dipped lower, invading your personal space. He brushed the tip of his nose against yours, breath fanning over your tear-stained cheeks. 

"And every kiss..."

Alastor observed you desperately as he pressed his lips against yours. He poured all his love into the shared embrace, hoping it would jumpstart your memory. But instead, you just shoved him away harshly, breaking away from his embrace. Alastor felt his world crumble around him as you wiped his kiss away with the back of your hand.

"You're fucking crazier than I thought!" With Alastor still reeling from the rejection, you took your leave. The sound of the door slamming thundered through his head. 

Alastor sunk to his knees. His hands came up to tug at his messy tufts of hair. Allowing the tears to flow freely now that he was completely alone.

Alastor did not think you were capable of hurting him until now. 

Alastor yanked at his locks furiously as his cheeks burned brightly in frustration. His knees quivered as his forehead kissed the carpet that was stained with his blood from earlier—when he unintentionally ripped up his palms. Alastor curled in on himself as he wept. 

This pain was worse than any other.

But more than anything, his love for you only burned brighter.

As did his determination to have you remember him and the pleasant life you both shared before all was lost.

[l13]

hmm idk this is fluffy but i feel like ghost would secretly melt every time his gf would call him ‘angel’

wdym i love fluffff, send me fluffy asks i love emm:(

cw: pure fluff, f!reader

imagine you and ghost are cuddling, nd you're laying on your back with his hands wrapped around your middle, his head resting against your chest while you're talking about random stuff. And suddenly, nicknames come up, and you realize that you always call him either Simon or Ghost, despite him using 'lovie/love, baby, sweeatheart' regularly on you. Well... most of them were spoken in private, away from prying eyes, but STILL.

You were in shock that you'd never chosen anything for him, and kinda offended on behalf of him, too. He chuckled at your behavior, saying he really didn't care, but you insisted that he needed something. So you started to list off potential nicknames for him,

"Ghostie-"

"Absolutely not."

"Yeah that's bad, umm oh!! You can be my pookie bear,"

he nudged your side softly, the corner of his lips quirking up in amusement "Stop it."

"I'm just playing. I can call you love, too, yknow. You're my love."

You run your fingers through his hair, smiling dumbly at the way you feel his breath hitch, but then he's huffing "That's your nickname, love, you can't have it."

"But I do have it-"

"I have it, and it's for you,"

you purse your lips to stop yourself from laughing, rolling your eyes "Fine." he hums in reply, and you're both quiet for a while, so much so that you think he's fallen asleep.

But then an idea pops into your head and your eyebrows shoot up, "What about angel?"

Ghost doesn't say anything but you can hear the sharp inhale of his nose, his hands tightening the slightest bit around you "Nah,"

you pout down at him, tilting your head to try and get a glimpse of his face, "Why not?"

"Just doesn't fit me, 's all." and you would have let it go if his reply had been different, but your gut told you that he was 100% serious,

"Simon.. Look at me," he refused to do so, so you tugged at his hair the slightest bit, and he groaned lowly, turning over so his chest is flush against your own, supporting his weight on his forearms on either side of your head, his nose nudging your own.

your fingers fall from in between his hair, down to his cheeks, to cradle them in your palms as you look at him "You're an angel."

Ghost huffs, "An angel that kills people, sure,"

"Well... in Supernatural that's the norm-"

"Fuckin' hell.." he's rolling his eyes, a grin tugging at his lips nonetheless.

You narrow your eyes at him playfully, "Rule's changed, you don't get a say in this. I'm gonna call you angel, and that's final."

"Great." a snort escapes you at his dryness, and you giggle when he nuzzles his face against your cheek, planting a soft kiss on your cheekbone.

"I want more enthusiasm or else it's gonna change to pookie bear-"

Simon leans back to fully look at you, his eyebrows shot up, eyes seemingly glinting with mock interest "Changed my mind, angel's growin' on me."

"Thought so,"

<3

The next day when you walk in the mission brief room (idk wtf to call it, meeting room??) you mumble a small "Hey, angel," and maybe your brain is still foggy from sleep or maybe you genuinely didn't think much of it, but Soap's cackle is immediate, "Hey bon, listen I'm lovin' the new name but take me out to dinner first, yeah?"

Ghost's dumb grin fades in a millisecond at soap's comment and before he's realizing what he's doing he lets his hand brush your own as you pass by him, and then he's meeting Soap's stunned eyes, "She's talking to me,"

Soap still doesn't know what the fuck is going on when Ghost turns to you, muttering a small "Hi, lovie," your way,

[deadghosy]

Hello ! I wanted to ask if you can write a Hazbin Hotel x male!reader that is like a raccon please ?

Ignore it if you don't want to write it !!

(Unconnected, but I really love your writing. You have a real talent for this)

Sure lol! I also wanted to make them have the animal spirit of a raccoon so here you go! 🦆💗

HAZBIN HOTEL X RACCOON! READER

prompt: a ex-thief wants redemption to see his family

You stole shit..like lots of it to the point even your ex-teammates calls you a raccoon for your ability to steal like crazy. So when one of your teammates killed you because of they were jealous you got so much jewelry…. You fell into hell grumbling piss at seeing your ex teammate shoot you before you died.

You dusted off your outfit to fuckin' see you are a raccoon. (You can imagine reader to be a cubby raccoon or your body type 😘) but you gotta admit it fitted you as you looked to see an ad for a hotel that talks about redemption. You didn’t wanna stay in hell any longer as you smell the flames in your snout. So you go over to the hotel.

You stay at the hotel for months, getting the trust of the hotel staff as you live there. Charlie introduces herself in her dreams to you, making you feel at least as you should help her grow in her dreams of the hotel that she’s making out of this.

So you nod, accepting your be part of the exercises she does.

You either was given a red outfit just like Charlie and vaggie or just a black fit to match your mischievous personality. 

I can see reader literally just trying to wash their hand from the sink as Charlie pick them up and helps you wash your hands thinking you can’t change heights.

Lucifer picked you up because you’re the size of a raccoon so you kind of found it funny until you grow up in size as human size. Never in his life has Lucifer dropped a person so quick as you chuckled. 

“EW A RODENT” “EW A SHORT PERSON”

There was so much silence that the silence was loud as Lucifer gave you a “that’s not nice D:” face as you shrugged.

Raccoon! Reader and penguin! Reader would be cousins 😭

Like literally these two animal readers would be those cousins trying to get a sleepover by their moms.

Angel would probably set you up to steal from Valentino…I mean shit Italians stick together☝🏾

Niffty likes to groom you if you are in your raccoon size. Don’t run, you can’t out run Niffty and her cleaning tools ‼️

I can imagine you and sir Pentious being slight mutuals as you go through peoples trash bins and just collect metal for Pentious making Pentious give you something in return.

A cute headcannon is that you sometimes stick your tongue out when drinking something other than gulping it down.

Husk had gave you some water because you were dehydrated. And this man raised an eyebrow seeing you drink it like a cautious animal. Okay so maybe husk did pet you on your head as you were too busy drinking the water.

You are a slick bastard, you would literally pick pocket people without them even knowing it. Hell, you died with a talent because of this. But it’s sometimes hard to break bad habits.

I headcannon you bit a resident that tried to pickpocket off of you. You definitely gave them rabies with your sharp teeth as they started to spazz and pass out. Leaving you just standing there like. “Did I do that…😨”

I can see raccoon! Reader just being thrown by Angel when he wanted to catch some sinner who tried to take his drugs (pilot reference) and you got on the sinners head and fuck up their face🦆

It was definitely giving “PIKACHU, I CHOOSE YOU!” 😭

Okay so I gotta admit…I headcannon raccoon! Reader to have dug in the trash bins only to get scolded by Charlie as you had a banana peel on your head

I can see raccoon reader also having the personality of rigby, but more of a mature side to it a little. If you know what character I’m talking about hit me up 😘😍

As much as you seem playful and dumb at time, you’re really smart when you wanna be smart. You literally outsmarted Alastor at chess once which made alastor’s eyes widen at you.

I deadass headcannon raccoon! Reader to have like some kinda of accent. Probably Italian, but make it heavy and attractive. 😭🦆

But like if raccoon reader is Italian imagine the secret talks you and Angel do away from the others 😭😭 just two Italian boys planning world domination

Alastor doesn’t have any options on you other than you just stealing his cane makes him pissed off.

You stole his cane for a talent show down stairs that Charlie made. You were doing comedy until this mf grabbed the scuff of your neck and forced you to give it back.😭

STOP CAUSE YOU PROBABLY GOT LOCKED IN A TRASH BIN ONCE AND IT TOOK THE WHOLE CREW TO FIND YOU IN 2 DAYS😭😭

“Ewww…welp found them Charlie!” Alastor said picking you up over his shoulder with a wide grin as he slides down the dump stash.

You are in charge of the lost and found section of the hotel as you just go in room and find shit. I mean you would love to keep them to yourself but Charlie and vaggie knew you would try to steal. So that’s why they made you in charge of lost and found.

You and Angel once went on a hot girl shopping spree..well actually Angel brought you along since you two bond very well. You two legit bought shades together while Angel dust went shopping with you behind him holding his bags.

I headcannon raccoon! Reader to have a locket of his mom in his pocket at all times because before going to bed they kiss the locket and wish their mom a good night.

Charlie learnt you liked being pet from your head to your back as it helps you sleep better. She squeaks at your rare cuteness as she hears you let out a few cute snores.

You stole from husk making him grumble looking for his wallet only to see you come back whistling holding a bunch of groceries.

“Let me guess, you stole my fuckin' wallet?” “Whattt me stole whooo?” You said with a smirk putting down the groceries for husk as he grumbles snatching his wallet from you.

Husk and you have a weird friendship dynamic. It’s like you two hate but like each other. So it’s basically frenemies

When the angel fell down and came to fight, what did you do? Bitch you stole their heaven bucks and dead angel’s weapons. If you can’t beat em, wait for them to die😍

Adam literally seen you stealing money from tel he angels and was going to kill you when he felt his pockets…HIS WALLET WAS GONE?! HOW TF DID YOU TAKE HIS WALLET?!

“THAT LITTLE THIEVING SHIT TOOK MY WALLET?!” “ BUT SIR! THAT IMPOSSIBLE?” “NO SHIT!” Adam retorts at lute as Adam grumbles seeing your figure run away

After Adam had died, you ran his pockets…😭 devious ass shit-

The hotel crew just gave you a shocked looked after you stole half of his possessions.

You and Angel dust literally just be chilling and mess with husk a lot 😭 so now husk got two Italians annoying him lmao

Sir Pentious doesn’t like you because of how you sometimes sneak into his room or lab and steal some of his stuff just so you can have a little stash of something to remember the good old days when you were alive.

Sooner or later, you had given Pentious his stuff back remembering your mom might be in heaven. You miss her cooking.

I imagine raccoon! Reader to be a mama’s boy🤨☝🏾

You’re so use to playing dead as a raccoon, as you literally played dead in front of husk and angel making them scared you actually died….yeah you told them it was a prank and they got mad to the point they locked you out of the hotel.

“GUYS! LET ME IN DAMNIT! IT WAS JUST A JOKE! FELLAS?!”

[bkgml]

Omg! Just found your profile and I literally fell in love with your writing, it’s AMAZING! That’s why I’m here to request a Bakugo x fem!reader where the reader has a telekinesis quirk and overworks herself during practice. After that Katsuki can’t seem to find her anywhere until he searches in her room and find her in bed with lights off and just enter protective boyfriend mode? Thank you so much, hope you’ll write it! 🧡🧡🧡

you felt your head pounding as you stare down at the gym mat. you’ve been training heavily all afternoon and you feel yourself getting closer and closer to your limit.

“yn, you good?” sero asks stepping closer to your hunched over form.

your eyebrows furrow and your ears ring. god your head is pounding.

“yeah.” you mutter weakly, breathing deeply through your nose.

“you’ve trained enough for today, go rest up for the test tomorrow.” he says sternly.

“no i’m good, one more round.” you say, standing to your full height in an attempt to mask your pain.

“you’re gonna fucking pass out. go upstairs.” he says, pushing you gently in the direction of the gym doors.

“fine fine i’m going.” you laugh weakly, stumbling outside.

“and drink some fucking water!” he yells.

****************************************************

“i’m gonna kick your ass.” katsuki snarls.

kirishima just knocked him down and katsuki is not happy.

“bro, you’re getting weaker.” kirishima teases, way to poke the beast.

katsuki launches into another attack, pummeling kirishima.

****************************************************

after your quick shower, you stumbled into bed and pulled out your phone.

*calling: katsuki <3*

straight to voicemail.

you sigh, trying to relax, but the stress of your combat test as well as your sore muscles are forcing you to stay awake.

*calling: serooo*

“yo, yn! this fight is crazy, kirishima and bakugou are killing it!”

“nice!” you attempt to sound excited, but you feel like shit.

“…so, katsuki’s still training then?” you say sadly.

“uh yeah he is, do you want me to get him though?” he offers.

“no, it’s okay. just tell him to call me when he’s free, okay?”

“yeah, course. bye, feel better!” he cheers.

“bye sero.” you mumble, arm flopping back on the bed.

you’re so frustrated. you just want to relax and sleep but you can’t manage to.

****************************************************

“hey bakugou.” sero says, running up to him after katsuki finishes sparring.

“hm?” he hums while chugging his water.

“yn told me to tell you to call her.” katsuki’s eyes furrow.

“where is she?” he asks.

“she’s in her dorm. she overworked herself during training, looked like shit.” he replies.

katsuki frowns deeply, pushing past sero and through the gym doors.

“fuckin told her… don’t overwork yourself… just can’t listen.” he grumbles, trudging in the direction of your dorm.

he creaks your door open slowly to not wake you.

“suki?” you murmur, head lifting to peer at your door.

“what are you doing up?” he sighs.

“can’t sleep.” you whine.

“yn i told you not to fuckin overwork yourself.” he grumbles, shutting the door behind him.

“i’m just really stressed out right now, kats. ‘m sorry.”

he sighs, walking over to thread his fingers through your hair.

“i know angel. we can train more tomorrow, you just need to rest properly in between spars, okay?” he says, kissing your forehead softly.

you nod and grab his hand.

“come here.” you whisper, eyes flicking up to his.

“i’m so sweaty. gonna have a quick shower.” he explains and you frown lightly.

“5 minutes. just rest, alright?” he kisses your head before walking into your bathroom.

you try to breathe and relax to the white noise of the shower but your headache overpowers your exhaustion.

****************************************************

“why aren’t you asleep?” he frowns, grabbing boxers from a drawer he occupies.

“i can’t, im too nervous for the test.” you frown, getting frustrated.

“you’re going to pass, i promise.” he says, dragging the towel over his hair while walking over to you.

your frustration builds tears in your eyes causing you to turn away from him.

katsuki sighs, climbing into bed and cradling you gently.

quiet sobs fill the room and you bring your hand up to harshly wipe at your eyes.

“let me kiss you.” he mumbles into your shoulder.

you turn in his grip and bury your face into his chest.

you remain there until your tears stop and you lift your head to look into his eyes, pecking his lips.

he stops you from pulling away by resting his hand on the back of your head, thumb rubbing up and down to massage your scalp.

you sigh into the kiss and feel your eyelids grow heavy.

“sleep now.” he murmurs against your hairline.

you nose at his jaw softly, tucking your face into his neck.

“night.”

he cradles you in his arms.

“night.” he says, smiling against your scalp.

what if reader was a exterminator helping adam when he went to attack the hotel but instead of him getting killed by nifty it’s the reader and now hes actually showing his emotions to her instead of being a cocky bitch crying bringing you to heaven in hopes to bring you back to life

(i need more adam angst)

Stay With Me

(Name) knew Nifty was an underestimated force. That little shit was utterly insane, and people overlooked the danger she posed because she was small. That’s why it hurt her ego so much when Nifty thrust a blade through her back.

She didn’t underestimate Nifty, yet she was still caught off guard.

She’d been watching Adam scream at Charlie and Lucifer, his pride in ruins, when a sharp pain spread through her torso. Everyone who had been watching Adam was now looking at (Name), their mouths open in the same surprise that (Name) felt.

She watched Adam turn around to see what everyone was looking at, confused. (Name) watched the look of pure horror that spread across Adam’s face when he saw her, before her body collapsed on her and she fell forward.

Nifty began stabbing her back repeatedly, and Adam screamed, rushing over and picking Nifty up, throwing her away like she was an object. He dropped to his knees, gently turning (Name) onto her back.

“No, no, fucking, NO,” Adam rambled, the amount of golden blood spilled around (Name) making him sick. (Name)’s eyes opened when she was rolled onto her back, and she smiled upon seeing Adam.

“(Name), (Name) stay with me. Don’t die on me, you bitch, please, (NAME)!”

He barely registered Lute behind him, begging him to grab you and retreat. But once he remembered where they were, he grabbed (Name)’s fallen halo, before scooping (Name) up into his arms.

He stood, casting a deadly glare at everyone stood around watching. “You’ll pay for this,” he spat at Charlie, taking flight before she or Lucifer could say anything.

Sera’s attention had been called to the retreating exorcists almost immediately, when the first batch came through the portal beaten and injured. She watched as they continued to pour back into Heaven, waiting for Adam to come report what the fuck had happened.

But when Adam finally came through the portal, carrying (Name), without his mask, and beaten up, Sera knew it was very serious.

Adam stumbled into Heaven with (Name), Lute on his heels, and immediately spotted Sera. “SERA!” he yelled, desperately. “Please, help her, please, she’s dying.” Her blood stained his robe.

“I cannot heal, only the elder angels can do that,” Sera said. “So where can I find a fucking elder angel!?” “I may be able to pull some strings,” Sera told him. “Wait a minute.” She disappeared.

“SHE DOESN’T HAVE A MINUTE!” Adam yelled after her.

But Sera reappeared seconds later, an elder angel by her side. “Bring her here,” the elder commanded, and Adam almost shrunk back at her booming voice. Still, he stepped forward for (Name), bringing her to the elder.

He sat, turning (Name) over in his arms to reveal her back. The elder crouched down, holding her hands over the wounds. She hummed, her hands glowing, and Adam watched in relief as the wounds began to stitch themselves back together right before his eyes.

When the elder finished, she put a hand on the back of (Name)’s neck. “She has lost a lot of blood. But she will live.”

“Thank you,” Adam choked.

“Take her home, child.”

Adam turned (Name) onto her back again before lifting her and rushing off. He flew back to his apartment, Lute following at a distance. At his apartment, he stripped (Name) of her bloody clothes, throwing one of his t-shirts on her before tucking her into his bed.

“Sir, are you alright?” Lute finally asked as Adam stood over the bed watching (Name).

Adam took in a deep, shaky breath. “I’m fine, Lute. Go get that fuckin’ arm taken care of.” He wished he’d been nicer to her, she was so loyal, but he couldn’t be nice to anyone right now. Not under these circumstances.

He sat on the edge of the bed, gently stroking (Name)’s hair back. His heart jumped when her eyelids fluttered opened. Her eyes were dreary, tired. “Adam?” she whispered. Adam teared up, looking away. He’d be damned if she saw him cry.

“Yeah, baby,” he replied softly, sniffing and looking back at her. “I’m right here.”

(Name) smiled again. That damn smile.

“Never, ever, scare the shit out of me like that again,” Adam snapped. (Name) closed her eyes and hummed. “I’m sorry.”

“You fuckin’ should be.”

There was silence between them before Adam spoke quietly.

“You really scared me.”

“I know. I’m sorry.”

Adam couldn’t stay mad, too relieved. He sighed, laying down on the bed next to (Name). He laid on his side looking at her. He draped his wing over her like a blanket. (Name) made kissy lips and Adam chuckled, leaning forward and kissing her sweetly.

Even the kiss felt quiet and soft.

They just enjoyed one another’s presence, grateful to still be together.

Adam had almost been left alone for a third time.

flashlights cast eerie shadows across the walls as rindou moves about, cracking glow sticks and laying them around the cabin. you were all in black ghostface cloaks, sitting in a circle on the floor after rearranging the living room to create more space. yet, as the dim flashlight flickers, the scene begins to resemble something more akin to a satanic ritual.

you were sat in a side-sitting position, body angled towards mikey’s whose head rested comfortably on your lap. rindou finally sits in the circle and begins to explain the game, carefully tearing pieces of paper and marking circles on all but one, which gets an 'x'.

“if you draw the piece of paper that has the ‘x’ on it, you are the murderer.. and you have to keep it a secret.” he whispers the last part, his speech slightly slurred from the shots he had earlier. he places shot glasses directly in front of each person, except keisuke who waves off the shot glass before rindou places it, raising his beer bottle to indicate that he’s good with the drink he has.

“so, how do you play exactly?” you ask, twirling mikey’s hair with your finger.

“you have to hit the lights before playing the game, which..” rindou pauses, saying as if the power outage had done the job already. “we’ll be wearing the mask so no one will recognize one another or team up, and the killer won’t get real fuckin’ personal.” he mumbles the last part and swiftly glances at someone but you don’t care to check who.

he pushes himself up to walk towards the counter, grabbing a bottle of vodka, lime and salt for the ones who need it, and comes back, pouring it into each shot glass.

before rindou could continue explaining, draken interrupts. “yo, mikey.. you wanna..?”

mikey nudges your hands off his hair to roll over on his stomach, facing draken and resting his chin on your thigh, his sharp chin on your thigh making you hiss slightly at the pain, but he doesn't care. “hmm?”

draken stands up, jerking his head to the side while walking toward the front door, “y’know.."

“oh, yeah. excuse me.. be right back.” mikey starts to crawl toward where draken is walking, standing up when he reaches the front door, you glance at emma expecting an explanation, which she shrugs off.

rindou clears his throat to continue, “whoever gets the paper marked ‘x’ has to find the knife’s location that’s written on the back, and sneak around to find someone to kill, alone, with nobody around to witness the murder. If you come across a body, you have to yell ‘bodies bodies bodies!’ and then we’ll pull the body back here and try to figure out who did it within 5 minutes, if the timer’s up and nobody figured out who the killer is they’ll stay anonymous and continue to be the killer to keep their streak going.”

he finally reaches your shot glass, looking you in the eye as he pours. “remember, you can’t trust nobody.”

“so, basically a game of hide and seek except we kill eachother.” you note.

he reluctantly nods, “guess you could call it that.”

takemichi, sitting with his knees pulled up to his chest, speaks up, “I get stressed out every time we play this, someone always ends up beaten up,”

“exactly what makes this game fun,” hanma exclaims, his tone a little too excited for comfort.

you jump in, curious to why takemichi’s nervous about some game, “why what happened last time?”

“it got ugly, that’s what,” keisuke says, swallowing his beer before responding.

“only because mikey and ken had a fight not that long before the game, so they kept butting heads,” mitsuya adds.

“still, that is not fun at all,” takemichi says.

rindou knocks back a shot glass, smacking his lips before opening his mouth to speak, “let’s hope this time, somebody wounds up dead instead, you guys ready?”

before anyone can continue, mikey and draken walk in, “wait,” mikey interrupts, glancing at emma, who was sitting beside draken on his left. “emma, move to the right between draken and her.” he points at you as he stands in the circle.

emma furrows her brows, turning to look up at draken who sinks next to her on the floor, “why?”

mikey’s expression softens slightly. “i prefer draken to slap you rather than the rest of the guys, and you’ll be the one slapping her.”

emma quickly complies, sliding over next to you with a wide grin on her face, too excited over the fact that she gets to slap you.

mikey then sits down, positioning himself between rindou and takemichi. then kazutora, who had been watching where mikey would sit the entire time, nudges rindou aside and takes a seat next to mikey. earning a glare from keisuke as if he knows what kazutora’s planning. huh, that was weird.

“alright, who will do the honors?” hanma says, crossing his legs and leaning back on his arms.

“me,” rindou volunteers, turning to his right to face kazutora. he knocks back another shot in one go, then smacks kazutora hard across the face.

kazutora grunts but laughs immediately after, rubbing his cheek. he then turns to mikey with a creepy smile on his face, brushing it away over the fact that he could just be coked out. he grabs the shot glass and tosses it back in his throat smoothly.

mikey’s eyes narrow at him with a glare, to which kazutora responds with a much harder slap than rindou did. the sound echoes in the room, making everyone groan at him for that unnecessarily hard slap.

“the fuck, kazutora?!” draken yells, almost standing up but mitsuya stops him, calming him down.

mikey appears unfazed, adjusting his jaw, a flicker of annoyance crossing his face, you could swear that the color of his eyes just went darker than usual.

“what? It’s the game, chill,” kazutora replies nonchalantly.

mikey flexes his jaw, jerking his head to the side in a sharp, dismissive motion, shaking off the irritation as he tips back a shot, the burn of the vodka barely registering on his face.

he then turns to takemichi, his expression softens at the sight of him, watching takemichi squeezing his eyes shut. he hesitantly opens one eye, wondering why mikey’s taking a while to slap him, mikey’s mouth curve into a silent laugh at that. he raises a hand up and finally slaps him, making takemichi hiss in pain, clutching his cheek and groaning exaggeratedly, earning a laugh out of the guys. despite his initial reaction, he toughens it out, rubbing his cheek.

takemichi sips the shot, his mouth twists into a grimace from the alcohol burning his throat. then turns to keisuke, you can tell he’s clearly intimidated by him. hesitantly, he slaps him, but it’s a weak effort, making keisuke smile, his eyes narrowing as he tongues the inside of his cheek.

“really?” keisuke says, his tone mocking. takemichi chuckles nervously, his eyes darting around the circle who were laughing at the weak tap he’d call a ‘slap’.

“hit me again, harder, come on,” keisuke insists, pushing his long hair back and leaning in, his eyes fixed on takemichi.

takemichi looks to mikey, who’s eyes were darting between him and keisuke with an unreadable expression. he takes a deep breath, turning his head back to keisuke and slaps him harder. making him grin, “goddamn..” he mutters.

“are you mad at me?” takemichi asks, his voice shaky.

keisuke shakes his head no, but the gesture doesn’t reassure takemichi at all.

you lean to whisper in emma’s ear, “why are we slapping eachother?”

“to give the killer a reasonable motive i guess.” she whispers back.

keisuke takes a swig of his beer, turning to chifuyu and slaps him hard. making chifuyu wince, hissing in pain as he rubs his reddening cheek. he shoots keisuke a mock glare before turning to mitsuya.

chifuyu then drains his shot in one go, feeling the warmth spread through his chest. he quickly slaps him, the impact making mitsuya’s head jerk to the side. “shit.” he laughs, rubbing his cheek and looking up at chifuyu, who was chewing on a slice of lime with a smile. “I’ll get you for that,” he promises, his smile widening.

mitsuya turns to draken, almost excitedly, then his eyes suddenly shift to you, locking onto yours as he licks the salt off the back of his hand and downs a shot. the liquid burns down his throat, but he still kept a neutral face. he then looks back at draken and gives him a solid smack in the face, making draken’s head snap to the side. draken laughs, a deep, rumbling sound. “goddamn, mitsuya, was that personal?” he jokes. mitsuya just shrugs, a soft smile on his face.

draken then turns to emma, his expression softening. he takes a shot while maintaining eye contact with her. she quickly tucks her hair behind her ears, offering her cheek. he gives her a solid slap, but not hard enough to harm, making her scoff and roll her eyes.

“don’t go easy on me because I’m your girlfriend, ken, c’mon!” emma protests.

“nah, you don’t know what you’re asking for little lady. now move on and slap her,” draken nods at you, leaning back with his hands propped behind.

“ohhhh yeah.” she giggles, remembering that she gets to be the one to slap you. she takes the shot and scoots closer to you. you roll your eyes at how extra she is as she affectionately cups your face, wiping away the excess mascara smudges under your eyes, and then slaps you hard enough to almost knock you off balance, making the guys collectively wince with some laughter.

“fucking hell.. emma!” you exclaim, rubbing your cheek from the burning sensation and glaring at her. emma tilts her head in a challenging way, her grin still wide and cocky.

shaking your head dismissively, you grab the shot glass and down it. turning to face hanma, who seems a little too excited to get slapped by you right now. he licks his canine and leans down to make it easier for you, does he always got to show off that he’s taller than you every time?

you sigh, giving him a soft, shy tap on the cheek, making everyone yell at you for it, including him.

“you have got to be kidding me.” chifuyu groans.

“oh, c’mon, what was that?” hanma says, his tone a mock of disappointment, as if he’s talking to a kid.

“put some muscle into it, new girl.” keisuke encourages through his beer.

“i don’t bite, go ahead,” hanma nods at your hand, staring at you with his hypnotizing heavy lidded purple eyes. fuck, he can’t be looking at you like this, not right now.

you smile nervously, giving him another slap, firmer this time but not as hard.

he slowly blinks, “seriously? fucking hit me,” hanma insists.

“If anybody deserves a hard slap, it’s him,” draken points at hanma with his beer bottle, “i’ll finish this for ‘ya so you can smash it on his head.” he wiggles his beer.

“c’mon, his face is practically begging for it.” mitsuya adds.

you glance at mikey, who gives you an encouraging nod, your sight then scrolls to emma, who only gave you an eager nod. knowing her, she would probably kill to be in your position right now. you then take a deep breath, facing hanma again, you straighten your posture in preparation, this time you let loose with a solid smack that was hard enough to leave a soft red imprint on his face.

hanma’s head jerks to the side a bit, biting his lips, he lets out a little hum, which sounded more of a growl.“atta girl,” he praises, he then downs a shot in the blink of an eye, turning to rindou who took off his glasses in preparation, delivering a slap hard enough to almost knock him out of his position, but rindou took it well.

he jerks his head to the side, “jesus christ, dude,” rindou winces, he then clears his throat and shakes his head. “alright, everyone turn around in your seat and put on your ghostface mask,” he instructs. you all follow suit, putting on the masks and adjusting the cloaks.

“now, stand up and shuffle around each other so no one knows who’s who, then pick up the papers on the table.” he continues. the group rises, moving in a chaotic, disorienting shuffle. some purposely bumped into you—definitely mikey—while others suddenly grab your shoulders to startle you.

the group then moves toward the table, they reach for the folded papers, some squabbling over a single piece, while others snatch one and slip away quickly. unfortunately, you’re the last to approach the table. you pick up the final paper, slowly unfolding it, hoping to see an ‘x’ but to your luck, you find a circle marked on it. with a sigh, you crumple the paper before stuffing it into your cloak pocket.

you glance around the cabin, seeing nothing but the shadows of the guys in their cloaks walking away. good, no killer on your radar so far.

your eyes land at the front door that was left open, as much as running around the woods would be easier than trapping yourself in a cabin with a killer, it’d be safer to stay inside where most of the group is, at least to have someone witness the murder instead of playing dead on the dirt.

you inch down the dark hallway, taking small, tentative steps, doing your best not to trip and fall on the glow sticks. the eerie glow from the flashlights disappearing the deeper you go into the halls. the atmosphere getting more and more sinister.

you make a few turns down narrow hallways, the sound of footsteps you were hearing before going distant, making you feel undoubtedly alone, and yet that thought scares you twice as much.

eventually, you spot a closet big enough to hide in, before you even begin to think if hiding there the entire game is a good idea or not, something flickers in your peripheral vision. a slight shadow movement in the corner of the hallway, something lurking just beyond your sight. you quickly slip inside, hoping that your sudden movement didn’t alert whoever was at the end of that hallway.

the small space is cramped, hot, and pretty hard to breathe in, especially with this damn mask and cloak on. you remove the attire and slowly push back the hanged coats, going deeper into the closet. the closet air weirdly thick with the scent of cheap beer, maybe one of the coats has beer spilled on it.

you try to steady your breathing to listen intently for any sounds outside. but instead, you hear the soft sound of breathing next to you. your heart pounds as you turn slowly, only to come face to face with another figure in a ghostface mask, looming over you and practically pinning you against the closet wall with his body.

your breath catches in your throat as you stare into the dark eyes of the mask, the sound of their breathing filling the small space. you can feel the heat radiating from their body, their presence both intimidating and familiar. the figure breaks the silence, his voice low and menacing, though unrecognizable. “you’re in my spot.”

you clench your fists, trying to maintain your composure. “the spot’s big enough for both of us.”

“nah, you’re crampin’ it up. i was doing great alone.”

“well, you’re just gonna have to deal with it ‘cause I’m not moving.” you cross your arms.

“oh, you’re not moving now?” the figure tilts his head slightly, “and how are you so sure that I’m not the killer?”

fuck, you didn’t think of that. you let out a short, nervous laugh. “w-what killer would hide in the fucking closet?!”

“a killer that’s waitin’ to pounce,” he replies, stepping closer.

“you would’ve pounced by now,” you retort, trying to sound braver than you feel, positive that he can hear the hammering beat of your heart.

“i would have,” he concedes, “or i could just rat you out right here, right now.”

your eyes narrow. “what? you gonna start screaming?” you mock.

he shakes his head slowly, a creepy edge to his voice. “I’ll make you scream.”

“oh so cliche. you’re just gonna get us killed, dipshit!” you hiss, trying to keep your voice low.

“think i care?,”

suddenly, you hear heavy footsteps nearby, growing louder with each step. your eyes widen in panic, and before you can react, the man clamps a hand over your mouth, silencing you. the rough texture of his glove presses against your lips, and you can feel the strength in his grip, since when were we required to wear gloves?

the footsteps stop just outside the closet door. your heart races, ear ringing from the beat of your heart as you strain to hear for any movement.

there was a brief silence, an anticipation for the closet door to rattle. it was eerily quiet, not a sound from out the closet, but there’s still a shadow standing in front of it, as if trying to scare you out. you kept your eyes fixed to that shadow, not noticing the mysterious man in-front of you lifting your skirt up.

before you could react to that, you feel a sudden sharp cold chill jolted against your clothed clit, pulling a muffled gasp from you and making you stiffen at the sensation. your eyes dart from the eyes of the mask to whatever’s against your panties, seeing an open ice cold ultra beer bottle, from which he responds with squeezing your face with his palm, as if forcing you to keep your eyes only on him.

you attempt to struggle, grabbing his big arms or hitting his rock hard chest and pointing toward the closet door with your eyes so he wouldn’t get us caught but he doesn’t budge. he has you pinned so hard against the closet wall that all you could do to squirm is arch your back. you hear him take a staggered breath, clearly enjoying your struggles, feeding off your fear.

you turn to see if the shadow that was in front of the closet is still there, it is, and yet the man shows no sign of stopping as he drags the ice cold bottle down lower toward your entrance. almost emitting a moan out of you but all that came out was a whimper.

you wanna hate this sensation so bad, you wanna hate the fact that the tall guy, with a ghostface mask on his head—that looks a little too good on him than frightening—has you pinned against the closet wall with a freezing cold beer bottle against your pussy, shutting you up with his hand and the thrill of the killer opening the closet at any second and killing you both, you really do wanna hate it. but it’s just all too hot, you can’t even tell if the wet spot on your panties came from the beer or if it’s from you, hopefully he doesn’t notice that too.

he gets closer to your face, “think you can keep that mouth shut?” he whispers, you can feel the warmth of his breath against your cheek and neck as he nudges your panties to the side using the bottle neck. you didn’t respond, you don’t want to, you can’t. you don’t even know who you’re dealing with, and you sure as hell won’t be able to sleep with the fact that there’s a guy here that knows that you like to get fucked with a beer bottle like a cheap whore.

he uncovered your mouth but kept a grip on your face. you blinked up into his hollow “eyes”, you weren’t prepared for something like this at all, not a clue in that little brain of yours how to react. so you just sit there, choking out the desperate needy sounds that kept trying to escape your iridescent pink glitter lips. oh, fuck. those lips that he’d kill to kiss right now, he wanted to bite it, he wanted to take your lip between his teeth and hear you moan. but your reaction to this was more than enough to fulfill his fantasies. there was uncertainty in your eyes, yes. but there was excitement too. such a fucking minx.

he never expected that type of look out of you, or for you to just sit there and take it. but shit, he’s not fucking crazy to be complaining about this. “got a fuckin’ clue how hard it was to hold back with you runnin’ around the camp in that skirt of yours?” the man strains.

“w-what?”

“don’t play innocent now.” he cuts you off, “glad you didn’t keep that cloak on or i would’ve ripped it off of you.” he starts circling the tip of the bottle against your clit slowly, teasing you, torturing you. “make everyone see that you’ve got taken advantage of, bet you would’ve liked that huh?”

“who are you..?” you manage to whisper out, looking back at the closet door, seeing that the shadow’s gone, he grabs your chin, forcing you look at him again, “tellin’ you would ruin the fun.”

just as you were about to feel the bottle being inserted, you hear a muffled shout from across the cabin, “bodies bodies bodies!” the call echoes through, making him step back, the cold feeling on your cunt that you started to crave now gone. “guess the fun’s over.” he murmurs disappointedly, he slips out of the closet, and before you know it he was gone from the hallway.

you continue to sit there, bewildered as you adjust your panties and put on your cloak and mask, not for the game but to hide the shame plastered on your face. your heart hasn’t stopped racing since then, that was the hottest thing you’ve ever experienced and yet it was with someone completely anonymous, to be honest, you don’t wanna find out who it is, just to save yourself the embarrassment.

you step out into the hallway, walking towards the glow of the flashlights in the corner like it’s a safe spot. as you approach the living room, you spot everybody already there except three people. all also holding a bottle of beer except one who’s cloak looks oversized and has a blue glow around their neck, assuming it’s either emma or mikey. this doesn’t narrow it down for you at all, who the hell could the closet guy be?

you then see two ghostfaces dragging a body across the cabin floor, they drop the body’s limbs into the floor and it dramatically plopped, whoever’s dead is having too much fun playing it.

the group crowded around it, finally taking off their masks including you. chifuyu steps in closer to the body, grabbing the mask and pulling it off, revealing rindou haitani.

they collectively gasp—really it’s just hanma—at the reveal, takemichi then steps forward with a half-assed attempt at a eulogy, “here lies, rindou haitani, known around the community, and was such a, uh, he was..” there’s an awkward silence as he scratches his head and looking around at the circle as if asking for help.

hanma then steps forward, “he was such a genuine person.” he shakes his head exaggeratedly, oh he’s so drunk. “who would throw the craziest parties.. he was so sweet and kind, considerate and loving..”

“alright, you’re draggin’ it.” draken cuts in, earning a kick in leg from rindou, he then sits up from the floor and settles into the couch, pointing at takemichi and draken. “remind me to blacklist you guys from my funeral.” he says, “go on! guess who killed me.” he sits back and observes with a grin, loving the attention on him.

you raise a hand up, “i vote emma,” you interject. “the second you grabbed that paper, you vanished. seems like someone was a little too excited to be a killer.”

“true, saw her waddlin’ away quick at the glance of her paper” hanma chimes in, earning a nasty glare from draken.

“bitch, please! If i was the killer, i would’ve picked you as my first victim,” emma retorts at you, crossing her arms defiantly under her oversized cloak.

“you hear that, guys? If i end up dead in this game, vote her out!” you declare, pointing accusingly at emma.

“nah, if we’re sticking to how the game works, it’s usually who got slapped by the victim, and that is…” draken points accusingly at kazutora.

“i also vote kazutora, he’s oddly too quiet for a game like this.” emma adds, eyeing kazutora suspiciously.

“don’t point no fuckin’ fingers at me. how about we point the fingers on who found the body?” kazutora shoots back.

“that’s a great point, hanemiya!” hanma exclaims enthusiastically, draken rolls his eyes at hanma’s inconsistency, “don’t invite this man for jury duty.” draken mutters.

“so, who found the body?” mitsuya leans casually against the couch arm.

“I did, but I had mikey nearby to witness!” takemichi steps forward nervously.

“we said no teamin’ up,” keisuke interjects, narrowing his eyes suspiciously.

“we just bumped into each other and found the body,” mikey explains.

“wait, how did you know that was mikey?” chifuyu asks curiously.

“the height,” takemichi replies, prompting nods of understanding from the group. “the hell?!” mikey retorts.

“was the killer the size of a gnome, haitani?” keisuke asks, ignoring mikey’s pout at him, which rindou mimed, zipping his lips shut and locking it with an imaginary key.

“alright.” keisuke stands up, beer bottle dangling from his fingers. “mikey and takemichi have each other as an alibi, and two people voted kazutora.” he then turns toward kazutora. “you have yet to give us an alibi, where were you?” keisuke steps closer to him, who maintains a neutral smile

“i wasn’t even in the cabin, i was outside. whoever was sitting here first can vouch for that,” kazutora asserts confidently.

mitsuya raises his hand. “i was here first, and i did see someone come in from outside the cabin.”

“what were you doing outside the cabin, kazutora?” draken questions skeptically.

“least likely for the killer to find me easily, and a good space to run. c’mon, ken, you’d know that’s basic horror movie logic,” kazutora explains, taking a sip of his beer nonchalantly, so kazutora’s not the the closet guy since he was outside, that should narrow it down for you.

“hmm, hey emma.. you’re real quiet, tell us your alibi,” mikey interjects, attempting to corner emma.

“i was at the balcony.” she replies confidentially

“why the balcony?” you cut in.

“’cause i could hear if the killer walked up the stairs, and i have a good view of the outside of the cabin, duh,”

“seems like everyone’s got a real good reason why they were at their places,” you observe suspiciously, earning surprised glances from the group that had you a little nervous.

“don’t think you’re off the hook now, new girl. you were the first one to accuse too, where were you?” keisuke steps closer to you, his tongue lingers around the top of the beer bottle for a little too long, taking a sip of his beer as his gaze locked onto yours, trying to read you. fuck, you can’t afford to break a sweat right now, not when you’re being interrogated by none other than him.

“i was hiding in a closet, and i never left it the entire time,” you assert, crossing your arms defensively. “what about you, baji? don’t think just because you’re the one interrogating us doesn’t mean you’re not a suspect,” you redirect the attention on him instead.

suddenly, a ringing sound echoes from rindou’s phone. “times up!” he announces, “the killer gets to stay being a killer next round, and the dead.. shall remain dead.” rindou says in a mock-ominous voice and goes back to playing dead on the couch, almost looking like an excuse to nap.

a chorus of scoffs and groans fill the room at the sound of the alarm. you turn to keisuke again, his eyebrows jump at you in amusement, his neutral face forms into a smug smirk. lucky little shit, until next time, ghostface.

everybody reluctantly turns around, putting their masks back on and walking away, as you move to follow, a tall figure bumps into you, seeing a familiar sight of possibly the same guy in the closet, same height at least. he raises a hand, points two fingers at his own hollow “eyes”, then directs them toward you as he disappears into the halls.

you ignore the butterflies in your stomach as you scan the living room for hiding spots, your eyes landing on the front door. maybe kazutora’s idea isn’t so bad. you walk toward the front door and slowly twist it open, closing it quietly behind you, you kept your eyes on the door in case someone followed you out.

it was pitch black out, the only noises are the rustling of trees and crickets. regret creeps in for leaving the cabin, but you can’t go back now—that’ll draw attention.

you approach the woods to camouflage your appearance incase the killer’s out here, not going too deep in, staying near the camp and scanning around it. you crouch down behind a tree and fixed your eyes on the cabin, seeing occasional black figures walking by the windows, almost reassuring in your opinion.

then unnervingly, it went completely silent, the cricket noises that once comforted you now dead quiet, making you a little too aware of your surroundings.

you can’t seem to shake the sense that you’re being stalked, watched, that you’re not alone right now. your senses heightened as you start to hear unnatural leaf movement, like crushing it or moving it, you whip your head toward where you think the sound is coming from, you’re not sure what it is exactly but you don’t like it at all.

you want to call out, ask who’s there, but the rational part of you tells you it’s just a mind trick, it does that when it’s pitch black and silent, it makes out appearances and noises out of nothing, it’s just your brain playing tricks, that’s all it is, you are completely and absolutely fine.

then suddenly your spine tingles, somewhere nearby you hear footsteps creeping behind you a little too close, hair prickling along your scalp as your brain screams at you to run, and what would a rational person with survival instincts do?

that’s right, you bolt, not even thinking about investigating what it was, no matter if it was an animal or the wind you’re getting out of there. you run as fast as you can toward the cabin, pushing the doors open enough to have them slam against the walls, and the first thing you see standing in the living room is somebody in a ghostface mask, holding a knife that does not look plastic.

panic surges through you as you turn toward the hallway and continued to run. cause no way in hell are you going back out there and having him and whatever’s waiting outside to chase you. you hear footsteps pounding behind you, your lungs start to burn and your legs feel like lead, but you don’t stop.

suddenly, you run into another ghostface emerging from a hallway. making you crash into them, your instincts forcing you up as quickly as possible. “i’m really sorry!” you apologize to whoever you knocked down, bolting away again.

breathless and disoriented, you sprint down the hallway, heart pounding in your chest. you glance over your shoulder to see if they’re still chasing you, but it’s hard to tell in the dark.

you quickly turn a corner and find yourself in the living room again. your breath coming in ragged gasps, heart pounding in your chest. the sound of your footsteps echo in the dimly lit cabin. you quickly glance around, eyes darting from shadow to shadow, half expecting ghostface to leap out at you.

rindou, who’s still sprawled across the couch, body motionless as he continues his charade of being dead from the last round. but when he hears you enter, one of his eyes slowly crack open, “hey, you good?” his voice calm, almost lazy.

you nod, still catching your breath. “yeah… yeah, i just got chased.”

you walk over toward the couch he’s lying on and sink down onto the floor, leaning against it, your legs are still trembling from the adrenaline.

“oh yeah?” rindou’s tone is light, as if this is just another round of the game. he shifts slightly on the couch, one arm draping over the backrest. “i just heard them yell out ‘bodies bodies bodies’ just now.”

shit, how come i didn’t hear that? whoever’s dead right now is your fault, but you couldn’t help it. whoever was chasing you took the game a little too fucking seriously.

you hear the couch springs creak behind you, seeing rindou peering over at you in the corners of your eyes with a smirk, as if he’s amused by your reaction. “you look like you’ve seen a ghost, you sure your good?”

before you can answer him, the rest of the group begins to gather, removing their masks. spotting everybody except takemichi. you fixed your eye on the front door, waiting for someone to walk in but nobody did. was that all in your head?

draken drags in the body and places it in the middle of the room. everyone circles around as draken kneels down and removes the mask, revealing mikey lying face-down, playing dead with an exaggerated stillness.

emma drops to her knees beside him, her gasp over-the-top as she clutches her chest. “ohh noo! my big brother..” she wails as he leans over his body, pretending to cry into his chest, her shoulders shaking with fake sobs.

you crawl over to sit beside mikey’s “lifeless” form, tucking his hair behind his ear to see his face better, silently apologizing for being the one who accidentally got him killed.

chifuyu speaks up, “okay, so do we have any nominations?”

“yeah, I’m for sure voting emma now,” draken accuses.

“ohh, coming in hot,” mitsuya crosses his arms, leaning against the fireplace wall.

“why do you think it was emma?” you ask, still looking at mikey, why is he still playing dead?

“yeah, why do you think it was me, ken?”

“because she agrees with everything that everybody’s saying to try and steer it away from herself. that’s her strategy in the game, and it always works.” draken explains.

you tap mikey’s shoulder repeatedly to try and wake him up, but he’s not budging.

“do we have any other nominations?” rindou speaks up.

“aren’t you supposed to be dead? shut the fuck up,” keisuke retorts, earning a glare from rindou, and yet he still complied.

“yeah, i nominate draken,” kazutora cuts in.

draken rolls his eyes, clicking his tongue. “seriously? It’s a low-hanging fruit.”

“i mean, he who casts the first stone,” kazutora shrugs.

“guys, why isn’t he moving?” you nudge mikey’s cheeks, “mikey, get up.”

“mikey, you don’t have to keep pretending for this long,” emma pushes him.

chifuyu sits next to mikey’s body, pushing him to face up. he’s still playing dead.

“the hell?” emma starts to shake him aggressively, starting to freak out, “manjiro, fucking get up. it’s not funny anymore,” she tugs his arm up but he still doesn’t move an inch, “guys, he’s not getting up.”

“relax, he fell asleep.” draken steps closer and leans down toward mikey’s body, holding the neck of the bottle and nudging the cold bottle on mikey’s crotch, making him yelp and immediately sit up from that, holding his crotch. “fuck, that was cold!”

emma punches him in the shoulder. “that wasn’t funny at all,”

mikey grumbles, a little grumpy over the fact that he was woken up. he then looks around, as if searching for somebody. “wait, where’s takemichi?”

“probably playing dead somewhere, poor guy.” chifuyu snorts.

mikey raises a brow, “we need to find him, he probably didn’t hear the call.”

“alright, but… what about kazutora?” draken points at him, ignoring mikey.

“maybe it’s draken. he’s always really aggressive when he’s the killer,” mitsuya notes.

kazutora snaps his fingers and points at mitsuya. “there you go.”

“what? no, i am not,” draken gulps.

“you’re lying. you always gulp when you lie,” mitsuya continues teasing.

“it would be so fucking obvious if I were the killer, which I’m not.” draken defends.

kazutora sighs out of frustration. “guys, jesus christ, can we just point out how draken hasn’t said a fucking word to defend himself? no alibi, nothing! he’s just denying shit.”

mikey crosses his arms, giving kazutora a hard look. “you aware that we’re still playing a game here kazutora? quit pointing fingers at ken and just admit that it was you, take the responsibility for once.”

kazutora’s frustration bubbles over as he points his finger at mikey. “ohoho… i don’t need to hear jackshit from you, mikey. you always act like you’ve got it all figured out, don’t you?”

mikey’s expression doesn’t waver, his tone remaining cold. “what I’ve got figured out is that you can’t handle the truth. you’re the killer, kazutora. just own up to it, it’s getting late.”

rindou, lounging on the couch with a bag of chips in hand, suddenly cuts in, nudging mikey’s shoulder with his foot. his voice is sing-songy, muffled by the crunching. “dead people don’t taaaalk.”

everyone ignores him, their focus entirely on kazutora and mikey. kazutora’s eyes narrow, his frustration turning into something darker. “ohh own up to it, huh? let’s not forget what you did to sanzu. nobody was at your throat for that, were they? cause poor mikey.. he didn’t even know what was going on when he did that shit to sanzu’s face!”

keisuke steps forward, trying to diffuse the situation. “kazutora, that’s enough.”

kazutora pushes keisuke aside, his wide eyes still locked on mikey. “but when i make one mistake—one fucking accident—everyone’s ready to crucify me but mikey gets a free pass? why? i don’t get it.”

“that’s different-“

kazutora cuts in with a bitter laugh, the sound harsh and grating. “different? how? because it was you, it’s okay? but when it’s me, I’m a fuck-up, right? i get called a murderer, that i’m fucking psychotic for that?”

draken shifts uncomfortably, his eyes darting between mikey and kazutora, “kazutora, calm down—”

kazutora cuts him off, yet again. “no, I’m not gonna calm down. I’m done taking shit for something that was never my fault. all of you, you’re all fucking hypocrites.”

mikey stands up from the floor, taking a step forward and puts his hands up toward draken to stop him from interfering. “at least i took responsibility for it in the end. you, on the other hand, continue to blame everybody but yourself.”

hanma, who’s lounging on the couch next to rindou, snickers as he watches them. “sounds like somebody’s feeling guilty. maybe you’re the killer after all, kazutora.”

kazutora’s frustration reaches a boiling point as he snaps back, his head twitches to the side. “guilty? you’re all so quick to accuse me just because I’m not falling in line like the rest of you. i had to live with that shit for years behind bars while all of you welcomed mikey with open arms right after he fucking stabbed somebody in the face!”

draken glares at kazutora, moving closer. “what’s up your ass hanemiya? what’s gotten you so pissed like this huh, you on something?”

kazutora scoffs, shaking his head. “don’t you start with me, draken. don’t you got other shit to worry about?”

“tora, shut the fuck up, right now.” keisuke interrupts, attempting to calm him down before he says something he shouldn’t.

draken’s eyes narrow dangerously. “and what the hell is that supposed to mean?”

kazutora hesitates to speak, eyes darting between keisuke and draken, and for a split second at emma. he couldn’t hold back as his frustration is tipping him over the edge. “you can barely keep your shit straight with your girl, ken. you’re no better than any of us. focus on that instead of sticking your head where it shouldn’t, would you?”

mikey takes a step closer, his voice low and threatening. “keep my sister out of this conversation.”

hanma almost chokes on his beer, “woah, woah.. what did i miss now?” eyes darting between emma and draken.

the room goes still. emma’s jaw drop, slowly turning her head toward draken, her voice trembling slightly. “you told them about that?”

“hold uuup, what does he mean by that?” hanma stands up enthusiastically as he attempts to interfere but gets dragged back down the couch by rindou, not wanting him to ruin the argument he’s so obviously enjoying.

draken’s head snaps toward kazutora, eyes narrowing. “how do you know about that? huh?” he then scans the room, “who the fuck told him that shit? we telling everybody our business now?”

then silence, the room’s atmosphere shifts into something you need to get out of, now. “everybody? what the fuck do you mean ‘everybody’?” kazutora’s voice drops an octave.

draken scoffs, shaking his head in disbelief. “oh, we’re just gonna ignore the elephant in the room now?”

keisuke quickly moves to stand between draken and kazutora. “ken, let’s talk about this later,” he then turns to mikey, who’s expression is completely unreadable.

“no, no. keisuke, let him continue, what fucking elephant in the room? elaborate, c’mon!” kazutora nods, trying picking a fight. keisuke turns to draken to observe his reaction incase he lunges. seeing his eyes completely blown out and dilated, keisuke’s eyes narrow at him. “ken did you use?”

he ignores him, his focus on kazutora completely. “elaborate? fine, i’ll fucking elaborate. when you were in prison, everybody was relieved you were gone. manjiro was relieved, you think any of us gave a shit about you? huh?”

mitsuya quickly pushes himself off the wall, moving towards draken, “ken, calm down, you’re drunk.” he places a hand on draken’s chest, trying to create a distance between him and kazutora—who stayed silent, his heart beating rapidly.

“the only person that gave a rats ass about you was keisuke, why? because he feels responsible for that. he doesn’t give a fuck about you.”

in a blink of an eye, keisuke steps forward, around mitsuya and swings a punch at draken, his fist connecting with draken’s lip with a strong thud. draken stumbles back from the impact, his lip splitting open and blood streaming down his chin.

“you don’t know shit, ken. so shut the fuck up.” keisuke spits as he shakes his hand, shaking it up and down to ease the throbbing pain, his knuckles are already forming redness, you didn’t realize how hard that punch must’ve been.

draken wipes the blood from his chin, still glaring at kazutora. “i wish you got your head bashed in instead of him, kazutora.” he growls, the blood staining his bared teeth red. “you spineless piece of shit.”

mikey’s eyes went dark, and all you saw was a blur of motion and a strong thud. seeing draken being knocked off his feet, with his head hitting right on to the floor.

“don’t talk about him like that,” mikey’s voice is low, deadly calm as he looms over draken, who’s jaw was open, completely not expecting mikey’s reaction to be this severe.

still facing draken, mikey shoots kazutora a glare over his shoulder. “don’t think i’m defending you, hanemiya.. you’re still dead to me.”

kazutora, breathing heavily, with his pupils being a frightening dot. he reaches his hand to the beer bottle on the floor, fingers curl tightly around the bottle, slamming himself on the head with it before holding the jagged glass out toward mikey, his hand trembling with rage and whatever he took before. “i’ll show you who’s really fuckin’ dead, mikey! i’ll kill you!”

mikey doesn’t even move an inch, there’s something terrifyingly calm about his demeanor that you can’t really put a finger on, but it feels like time has frozen now, either that or your just too shocked to move.

“go ahead, try.”

kazutora’s breath comes in ragged gasps, his hand tight around the glass. he swings it toward mikey with reckless fury, but before he can land the blow, chifuyu and keisuke rush in, grabbing him by the arms and holding him back.

“get off me!” kazutora roars, thrashing violently in their grip. his eyes are wild, full of rage and something else—but it was too dark to tell.

draken finally pulls himself to his feet, wiping more blood from his mouth, his eyes locked on mikey with disbelief, as if he didn’t expect him to knock him down. there was a silent exchange between them, his eyes still locked on mikey. but before draken can voice his thoughts, his attention shifts sharply to kazutora.

draken steps in front of mikey, his large frame acting as a shield, a shocking sight after seeing him get kicked in the head.

“I’ll fucking kill you all, I swear!” kazutora yells, still clawing and twisting against keisuke and chifuyu. his voice strainer and raw.

draken spits a wad of blood onto the floor, scoffing. he sneers at kazutora. “yeah, you’re real fuckin’ familiar with that—“

“enough.”

mikey quickly cuts him off, his tone tolerating no argument, so commanding, that even kazutora falls silent for a split second.

keisuke let’s go if kazutora’s wrist, taking kazutora’s silence as a chance to step in between, casting a wary glance at the three, ready to intervene again if necessary. “this is getting us nowhere, alright? let’s just go to bed, It’s late.” he then grabs kazutora’s wrist and forcefully pulls him out of the cabin, leaving no room to argue. “we need to talk.”

as kazutora and keisuke leave, mikey shoots draken a quick glare, “i’m gonna look for takemichi.” he leaves the cabin, heading toward the forest. the rest follow him out, heading toward the boys’ cabin. mitsuya kept close to draken just in case, while you and emma—still shocked from the scene—trail behind, not noticing hanma running to catch up next to emma.

“could’ve called me when your boyfriend couldn’t hit the spot for you.. you know I’ll always answer,” hanma teases loudly. draken overhears and spins around, throwing a punch that lands squarely on hanma’s face.

hanma staggers back but then starts laughing, wiping a smear of blood from his lip. “really? that all you got?” he taunts. draken lunges again, fists flying. hanma dodges and laughs, his mocking tone only making it worse.

mitsuya, rindou, and chifuyu rush in to break up the fight, grabbing draken’s arms and pulling him back.

“he’s trying to get on your nerves, ken. calm. the fuck. down,” mitsuya says firmly, blocking draken’s punches with his hand.

draken, panting heavily, looks down at mitsuya and then fixes a hard glare at hanma, yanking his fist away from mitsuya’s grip. he then storms off towards the boys’ cabin. hanma—still chuckling—walks towards a different cabin with rindou following behind, their laughter echoing through the camp.

you put a hand behind emma’s back, caressing it. “let’s just go.” you gently push her towards the girls’ dorm. quietly, you open the door and tiptoe inside, heading towards your bed with emma still following close behind. before you collapse into your bed you quickly change into something comfortable as emma stares into the distance, sitting on your bed, her face unreadable but clearly exhausted.

when you finally slid on your tank top, you heard emma sniffling. “emma? hey, are you crying?” you sit next to her, scooting closer to her to rub her back soothingly.

“i just.. didn’t think he’d get brought up like that.” she whispers, wiping away her tears with her palms, but more keeps pouring down her cheeks. “i don’t know why he’d do that, we were playing a stupid fucking game then suddenly, i..” she starts to choke on her words.

“shh, it’s okay.” she quickly turns to hug you, squeezing you a bit too tight but you don’t complain, quietly sobbing on your shoulder, she continues to blubber incoherently but you don’t stop her, you run your fingers through her hair as an attempt to soothe her but it only made her cry more. “it’s okay emma.”

still, you can’t shake the image of her reaction when kazutora brought up her and draken. it lingers in the back of your mind, nagging at you. now that you think about it, you can’t seem to remember any issues they’ve had except for the fact that he took too long to confess. but this isn’t the time to pry, deciding to leave that conversation for another time, when she’s ready to tell you.

after a moment, she loosens her grip and pulls away, her eyes red and puffy as she holds onto your hand. “can i sleep in your bed tonight?” she asks, her voice small and shaky.

“of course you can, come here.” you crawl under the covers, to your side of the bed, making room for her next to you, pulling the covers up for her to lay in. she lays down next to you, facing you while still having her fingers intertwined with yours. “thank you.” she sniffles. “goodnight..” she buries her face into the blanket, refusing to let go of your hand, even when it’s disgustingly sweaty, but you’ll brush it off for her.

“goodnight, emma.”

you jolt awake, heart pounding, drenched in cold sweat. for a few seconds, you’re still caught up in that nightmare. your adrenaline races as you run from the masked killer, desperate to escape brutal death.

even as your eyes slowly adjust to the walls of the cabin, you can still feel the masked killer nearby, stalking. hunting us one by one. it doesn’t help that the location your in happened to have a similar fate of your nightmares.

your feet kick at the sheets as sweat pours off your body. rolling over onto your side and reach for emma, only to realize that the bed is empty. guess she might’ve went back to her own bed at some point.

fuck, you need air. now.

you throw the covers off your body completely and slid in your fluffy black slippers, moving toward the front door and slowly opening it to avoid any sound.

once again, it’s pitch black, no winds, no rustling trees, just quietness. you lean against the porch rail, staring into the night sky, searching for the moon as you take a deep breath.

you hear the faint sound of metal clicking, as if somebody was sharpening or playing with a knife. ignoring the goosebumps, you scan your surroundings, peering around the trees, spotting a figure leaning against a tree a little way off, flipping what seems to be a butterfly knife in their hand. you squint, trying to make out who it is.

he ran his fingers through his long hair and sighed heavily as he gripped it, it’s keisuke. he looks frustrated, apparently you weren’t the only one who’s having a bad night.

he flipped the knife again. his fingers were quick and light as the blade swung out. the metal appeared impossibly fluid as he manipulated it through the air, making it look easy, like it was second nature. he played with it for a while without much focus, staring off into the trees as if distracted by something in the distance.

you quickly wipe underneath your eyes, hoping to catch any smudged mascara or eyeliner, and quietly make your way toward him. the leaves crunch softly under your slippers. as you get closer, keisuke turns his head slightly, still staring ahead. before you can say anything, he brings the knife to his lips, shushing you. he then points at something with the knife still in hand.

following his gesture, you see a baby deer standing at the edge of the clearing. it looks peaceful, completely unaware of the human presence nearby. the scene feels almost surreal after the nightmare you just had, almost like you needed a little pureness after that, but it didn’t help seeing keisuke dragging his thumb across the sharp knife while staring at the poor innocent deer, you were suddenly feeling a hell of a lot warmer.

you cross your arms, still staring at the deer, opening your mouth to speak quietly, “sorry, didn’t mean to ruin your alone time,”

“hardly alone.” his deep voice rolled out, making the hair on your skin stand. he flips the knife closed and tucks it in his pocket.

“seen it’s mom yet?”

he shakes his head in response.

after a few minutes, the deer raises its head, its ears flickering as it senses something. It looks around, then suddenly bolts into the woods, disappearing into the darkness.

you and keisuke glance at each other, then back to where the deer ran off. “think there’s a predator around?” you ask.

he made a sound that could have been a laugh, but he wasn’t smiling. “guess you could say that.”

“what do you mean?”

“could be a ghost.” he teases, finally facing you, seeing that your cheeks are swollen and your eyes heavy with sleep. “what’re you doing awake?”

“had a bad dream.. couldn’t sleep after.” you glance up at him, noticing a couple bruises on his cheek and a cut on his lip and jaw, almost deep enough to have blood dripping down his neck. “jesus, you look like shit. what happened?!”

he takes a minute to think before answering. contemplating if he should just tell you but decided to be careful around his words. “it’s nothing don’t worry about it.”

“let me patch you up at least.”

his tongue swirls over his bottom lip, licking the bleeding cut. “no need.” he mutters as he wipes the blood off his jaw with his thumb,

“you’re gonna get an infection like that. hold on, I’ll be back.” you head back into the cabin, searching for the first aid kit you brought with you, a cold water bottle and your phone for the flashlight. thank god you didn’t listen to emma when she told you that an aid kit would be useless to bring, now you got an excuse to get close to him and maybe be his little personal nurse.

returning to him, you find him still leaning against the same tree, staring off into the distance. he turns toward you, giving you a quick once-over, his eyes landing on the tank top you’re wearing with a printed band logo on it.

“what do you know about that band, huh?”

you stop in your tracks, squinting at him. “what do you know about that band?” you step closer and sit right in front of him, patting his bloodied boot and ignoring how painful it feels to sit on the forest ground. “c’mon, sit.”

he stands there staring down at you for a minute, his gaze intense, this position only making you body even warmer than usual. finally, he sinks down with a groan, indicating there are more injuries than just the ones on his face. he leans back against the tree with his legs spread, resting his arms on his knees, you crawl up between his legs to get closer to his face.

your scent hits him like a truck the minute you crawled closer, vanilla body lotion mixed with lavender shampoo you borrowed from yuzuha after the lake. how the hell do you smell so good even after already spending a day in this campsite?

you soaked the cotton pad in alcohol, carefully dabbing it against the cut on his chin. he flinches, a sharp hiss escaping through his teeth.

“quit being such a baby, relax,” you murmur.

he grumbles under his breath but keeps his eyes glued to you. leaning his head back against the tree, he gives you easier access to his neck and chin, but the way he’s staring—intensely, unwavering—sends heat crawling up your skin. It’s impossible to ignore, especially with that focused look cutting right through you. his gaze is more than a distraction; it’s a problem, a problem that makes you wanna gouge his eyes out. a problem that makes what’s between your legs throb and you can’t afford to acknowledge right now.

“can you not stare at me like that?” you say, still wiping the blood off his chin, trying to avoid looking up into his eyes.

“like what?”

“like that!”

“what?” a soft smirk tugs at the corner of his lips but quickly vanishes.

“you’re doing it right now.”

“i’m not doing nothing.” he drawls.

“you’ve got that face on your face!” you snap.

he cocks his head to the side, “that face on my face?”

frustrated, you throw the cotton pad down. “you know what i mean!”

“you’re not even looking at me, and you’re complaining about a face I’m making?”

you let out a huff from your nose as you grab another cotton pad, soaking it in alcohol again and continued tending to his wounds. after you finished cleaning it up, you place an ice-cold water bottle on his cheek without even looking at him. he quickly swats it away, that action surprises you enough to meet his eyes, he then softly grabs your wrist, guiding it back on his bruised cheek.

“If you’re gonna patch me up,” he says softly, “you gotta look at me.”

your breath hitches as you release the bottle, forcing him to hold it himself. you reach for a band-aid, your fingers brushing against his skin as you lean in to place it on his chin.

“technically, I need to be looking at your wounds,” you say, your voice barely above a whisper as you finally meet his gaze again. a hot flush rising up your neck.

“think you missed my chin there..”

you frown, glancing down at the band-aid and realizing that it’s nowhere near where it should be. so much for being his “personal” nurse, you can’t even get the damn bandaid on the wound. ripping it off, you try again, cursing yourself under your breath.

“what’s gotten you so distracted huh?” he teases, his voice low, and husky. like he knows exactly what effect he has on you.

“baji…” you warn, the sound of his name coming out more breathless than you intended.

“I’m messing with you. you need to relax… need a smoke?”

you let out an exaggerated sigh. “i’d love to if emma and draken hadn’t finished it all last night.”

he hums in acknowledgment, the sound almost sympathetic. “rough night, huh?”

“oh yeah…” you shift and crawl over to sit beside him, resting your back against the same tree. the bark is cold and rough, but being next to him makes you feel a bit more grounded.

keisuke puts the water bottle down and digs into his pocket, pulling out his butterfly knife. the familiar click of metal fills the silence as he flips it open, fiddling with it in his usual absentminded way. there’s something oddly soothing about it, even though your nerves are on edge. his presence makes you want to spill everything that’s been making you paranoid about this campsite.

“i keep having this reoccurring nightmare,” you admit, your voice quieter now, as if saying it out loud will make it more real. “about this ghostface guy.”

keisuke lets out a little snort, like it’s ridiculous, and you elbow him lightly in the side.

“i’m serious!” you say, half-laughing. “there’s a serial killer on the loose, and everybody treats it like a joke.”

he’s about to say something but catches himself, offering a quick apology instead. “my bad, sorry…”

your gaze drifts toward the dark forest in front of you, the trees casting long shadows. you instinctively flick on your phone flashlight toward the direction your staring at, just in case. “but i don’t know why… that nightmare this time, it was way more vivid. like, more real than before.”

keisuke doesn’t look up from his knife, but his brow furrows slightly as he flips the blade with a practiced hand. “how so?”

you hesitate, trying to find the right words to explain the feeling gnawing at your gut. “it’s like… the killer is even closer now, y’know? watching me. i’m twice as paranoid, and i keep seeing things out of the corner of my eye.” you hear a sudden snap of a tree branch nearby, your body tensing as you whip your flashlight toward the sound, but all you see is darkness and the endless maze of trees.

keisuke, on the other hand, barely reacts. he keeps fiddling with the knife, unbothered. “think you just really need a smoke.”

“yeah… maybe…” you mutter, still staring in the direction of the noise, your heart pounding a little too fast for comfort.

keisuke flips the knife shut with a swift motion, tucking it back into his pocket as he pushes himself to his feet. “i’ll give you some of mine tomorrow. just get some sleep.”

you push yourself up as well, stumbling a bit since your feet fell asleep. he jerks his head to the side toward the direction of the girls’ cabin, “i’ll walk you to the cabin so you won’t get killed.”

“that’s not funny,” you mutter.

“it is,” he teases, making you walk in front of him as he follows behind.

reluctantly, you step ahead, feeling the weight of his presence close behind. the crunch of leaves underfoot fills the dead silence of the night, not even crickets. and you can’t help but feel a little self-conscious with him right there, walking just a pace behind. every now and then, you glance over your shoulder, catching him watching you, his hands casually in his pockets, fiddling with the butterfly knife as he strolls along like a visible stalker.

when you finally reach the cabin, you stop by the door, turning to face him. “i’ll see you tomorrow then?”

he gives a soft hum of acknowledgment, his usual way of saying ‘yes’ without actually saying it. his gaze holds steady on yours, and for a brief moment, there’s something unreadable in his expression.

“okay… goodnight, baji.” you smile softly as you push the cabin door open, the wooden hinges creaking as you step inside.

before you can fully enter, his deep voice cuts through. “keisuke.”

you pause, glancing back at him, “huh?”

“it’s keisuke,” he repeats, his tone softer now.

your lips part in surprise, and for a moment, you’re not sure how to respond. but then a small smile tugs at the corners of your lips, face warmer than before. “alright then. goodnight, keisuke.”

he nods, his eyes lingering on yours for just a second longer. “night.”

you groggily rub your eyes, trying to adjust to the noise of loud chattering and the bright sun hitting your eyes. you attempt to tug the blanket up to hide your face but you struggle, you then attempt to kick the blanket up thinking it was just tucked in the corners but you struggle again, kicking your feet in frustration, you hit something solid, only to realize why it’s stuck.

mikey, sitting at the edge of your bed like a statue, unbothered by your kicks, as if you barely grazed him. you kick at his back on purpose this time, back to back, each hit harder than before. and despite your persistent kicks he doesn’t budge, making it seem like he’s completely immune to your attempts.

“move,” you mutter.

he glances back this time, your voice being the only thing that got his attention, fucking prick. “look who’s awake,” mikey says casually, as if you aren’t still trying to kick him off the bed. “emma says you know how to do creepy face paint.”

you finally give up, squinting at the bright room, sunlight flooding through the wide-open doors makes everything a bit too much for your still half-asleep mind. the dining table that’s pushed in the center is now a cluttered mess of makeup bags, hair straighteners, and mirrors, as if everyone decided to make it their vanity, spotting senju sitting there and putting rollers in her hair.

still too tired to process much, you stretch lazily, letting out a muffled groan as your body cracks back to life like those glow sticks from yesterday. “makeup…?” you murmur, voice still thick with sleep.

“yeah, yeah. can you do that for me?”

before you can respond, emma pops up from behind his shoulder, seeing you finally awake. she approaches the bed and shoves mikey down, crawling over him.

“come skinny dipping with me,” she chirps, hovering above your legs as mikey continues to struggle beneath her, her bodyweight suffocating him as he starts squirming beneath her, grumbling little ‘get off of me’s’ and ‘stop!’

you purse your lips, raising a brow at her as if that’s the last thing you want to hear right now. “why don’t you ask the other girls?” you mumble, not ready to leave your bed.

“everyone already did, we woke up late,” emma pouts, finally climbing off mikey. she pats you on the shoulder like it’s a done deal, “c’mon! go brush your teeth.”

mikey, still recovering from almost being squashed to death, glares at emma before giving you a look like this is somehow your fault, like you’re the one ruining his morning. “bullies, you two.”

“I literally just woke up, i barely did anything to you.” you mutter, kicking him in the back one last time, finally getting him to move. but unfortunately, he stays in the room, lingering like he’s got nothing better to do.

you ignore him now that he’s off the bed, finally having the chance to get comfortable again. you pull the covers up, snuggling into them, ready to drift back into a cozy 20 minute nap.

just as you’re about to doze off, you feel mikey leaning in close, whispering something in your ear that you didn’t know you craved. “the lake is really hot right now…”

your eyes shoot open, no way in hell your missing out on that. you fling the blankets off, grabbing your toothbrush and toothpaste from your bag and quickly run out of the cabin toward the bathroom.

outside, everyone from the campsite is already preparing for the halloween party tonight. at the gate there were new bikes and cars pulled over, guessing it’s the people that are here for the party and not to stay.

you continue walking toward the bathroom, almost bumping into guys that are hauling logs of wood to stack in the center of the campfire, with some sitting lazily in chairs they were supposed to move. it’s as if the party has already started before anyone’s even put on a costume.

as you approach the bathroom, you notice that it’s already occupied by keisuke, who’s standing at the sink flossing his teeth, you move past him hoping he would acknowledge you somewhat, but he doesn’t seem to notice your entrance, or at least bother to say ‘hi’. that kind of stings..

you wave off the thought and start washing your face beside him, glancing at him through the mirror every now and then, until the gorgeous sight gets interrupted by mikey, who clearly followed you all the way here, walks right up next to keisuke and stares at him through the mirror. “that’s crazy to look at,” he comments dryly.

keisuke pauses mid-floss, turning to face mikey with the floss string still stuck in his teeth. his left hand rests against the sink while his right hand settles on his hip. so dramatic. “what’s that supposed to mean, huh?”

mikey’s eyes flick to keisuke’s floss before he grins. “last time i saw you brush your teeth, you did it with your finger. now here you are, flossing and shit… who’re you lying to huh?”

keisuke glares and kicks mikey in the knee, making him yelp and bolt out of the bathroom, with keisuke chasing after him, leaving the floss still awkwardly hanging from his mouth.

kazutora squeezes past them, shooting them a look as they disappear in between the crowd that’s already forming around the campfire they’re making. he walks in the bathroom and closes the door behind him, glancing over at you.

“hey,” he greets casually, not so casually locking the door behind him.

you turn to face him, he looks like he just rolled out of bed, disheveled, yet unfairly attractive. his black and blonde hair is tousled, strands falling messily into his eyes, there’s a slight puffiness to his face, his eyes still heavy-lidded with the remnants of sleep, making him look soft but no less intense.

your eyes landing on his wife beaters that clings to his figure, creased from sleeping in it. you glance down at his hand that rakes up under his rumpled shirt, scratching his stomach as he squints at the bathroom light with a faint scowl. his blue plaid pajama pants hang low on his hips, before your eyes roamed over to his.. obvious print, you greet him with a nod, mumbling out a little ‘hi!’ as you continue to brush your teeth as if the way he looks didn’t almost make you weak in the knees.

kazutora moves behind you, stepping closer against you, his body presses lightly against your back, basically pinning you against the sink as his arms move around your waist to grab the toothpaste, his chest brushes your back as he squeezes the toothpaste onto his brush. he made the contact seem casual enough to be innocent, but you both knew it was far from that.

he reaches around you again, this time moving his arm up and over your shoulder to start brushing his teeth, practically enveloping you. his bicep brushes your cheek, he smells so clean, like mint with a mix of shampoo, making it impossible to focus on brushing your teeth. as you glance down, you spot a deep scratch on his arm, the wound looks fresh. probably from the glass he broke last night.

you tilt your head down under his arm, bending over, pressing close against him from behind to spit out the toothpaste, putting yourself in an awkward position and making kazutora’s hand slip down to your hips instinctively, his hands hold you tight as he mumbles through his toothbrush, “damn, we’re doing this the second day?”

you quickly wash your face, turning around to swat him lightly in the chest, “uh-uh, don’t put this on me. you’re the one doing all that just to brush your teeth!” you grab some tissues to wipe off your face.

he finishes brushing his teeth, rinsing out his mouth and wipes his lips with the back of his hand. “what? didn’t mean nothing.. you were just right there.” he stuffs his hand in his pocket casually, his eyes flick to your lips for a second, as if your words is going in his ear and coming out the other.

“well, that same argument goes for me,” you counter, leaning back against the sink and crossing your arms.

he steps closer, looming over you, his arms come down again, bracketing you in against the sink. “yeah, alright.” his eyes won’t stop glancing down at your lips, enough to make him bite his own to hold himself back from pouncing on you.

and you picked up on that, “someone could walk in you know..” you murmur, heart racing as he leans in, his nose gently brushing against yours.

“so?” he whispers, right against your lips. “let them, i don’t care.” his voice low, just like how he spoke to you in the same spot yesterday, will he finish what he started this time?

kazutora’s lips hover just inches from yours, his eyes heavy lidded and dark. your breath hitches as you anticipate what you didn’t know you craved so much until he got so close, until yesterday in the same exact spot when he could’ve had you.

“but.. we barely even know eachother.” you manage to whisper against his lips, eyes nervously darting at the door then back at him, he seems to notice that as he tilts his head to make you keep your eyes on him.

“we could get to know eachother now.” he murmurs, his eyes looking down at your lips then flicks up to meet your eyes again. “what’s your favorite color?” he asks as his lips graze against yours. the question feels almost like an afterthought with how focused he is on torturing you—and himself.

“yellow.” you joke as his mouth moves to the corner of your lips, trailing soft, teasing kisses. “what’s yours..?” you mutter, barely getting the word out before his lips are on yours, fully this time, kissing you as if he’s been hungry about you. his hands moving up to grip your hips, feeling his fingers go under your waistband.

he hums against your mouth before breaking the kiss to glance down, tugging at your panties to check the color, “mm.. black,” he mutters against your lips as his find yours again, feeling his hands rake under your shirt to hold your waist, pulling you closer toward his body as his lips find new ways to kiss you each time.

his mouth finally pulls away just enough for you to catch your breath, eyes dark and heavy with need as he leans in again, but instead of another kiss, you feel his hands under your thighs, lifting you effortlessly onto the counter, feeling the cold surface beneath you as he tightens his hold on your thighs, pulling you closer to press his body against yours.

he moves his hand up your chin, brushing his thumb across your lower lip while biting his, making your breath hitch as he lifts your head up and captures your lips between his again, except sloppier—more desperate, yet so annoyingly slow, like he wants to savor your taste against his lips. his tongue delves deep in your mouth as he softly groans against you.

you wrap your arms around his neck, playing with the back of his messy hair as he leans in even more into the kiss, pushing you to lean back against the mirror.

his hand snakes down your stomach, going between your legs to play with your clothed cunt that was embarrassingly soaked just from him kissing and teasing you. he breaks the kiss to rasp against your lips, a string of saliva still connected. “you’re soaked, you know that? i can feel it all through your shorts.” he grits his teeth, “it’s so damn hot.”

you let out a mewl, closing your legs on his hand as two of his fingers start to play with your clit, keeping his hypnotic honeyed-eyes on yours, “how long you been friends with manjiro for?” he asks another question as he teases your clothed clit, slowing his fingers down to make you focus on him instead. you can barely think, let alone form a coherent thought as you grip on the front of his wife beaters.

“a-a while..” you stammer, glancing down at him toying with you through your shorts, he takes it as a hint for him to go under it as he snakes his hand down your waistband, moving to go under your panties as he runs two fingers between your soaking wet folds.

the corners of kazutora’s lips tug into a smile, letting out a small laugh. “a while huh? where were you from me then? you hidin’?” he slowly inserts two fingers inside your cunt, his palm right against your clit for stimulation, making your thighs jerk up as he fucks his fingers into you. your extra sensitive now and he’s abusing the hell out of it. “m’ sorry.. i wasn’t—” he cuts you off before you can explain by speeding up, making such embarrassingly lewd sounds echoing around the bathroom.

“you do this with anybody else?” he asks another one, making you look up at him from that unexpected question, he’s already possessive of you and it’s only been the second day. god this is not how things are supposed to go, you didn’t mean to have a guy get possessive over so soon, the wrong guy too. but you can’t stop him now, not with how his fingers are hitting your sweet spots continuously.

you manage to shake your head, trying to find your voice, but before you can respond, he’s already speaking again, his lips brushing yours. “good, i wanna be the only one.” his voice soft but his eyes says otherwise. he pulls his fingers out of you, placing them in his mouth, sucking your wetness off his fingers, his eyes still on you.

‏then his hands move down to your thighs, tossing your thigh over his shoulders, “i know a better way to get to know you more,” he murmurs as he lowers his head down between your legs, his nose coming to bury itself against your soaked shorts, taking your scent in as his hands rub up and down your thighs while his eyes roll back from your scent

your thighs clamp around his head as he kisses your puffy folds through your shorts, the leg on his shoulder curling around him instinctively as if you are pulling him in for more, making kazutora growl, hands going up your hips to pull you against his his face again, keeping you in place as he takes in your scent while teasing your clit with his kisses.

you then get interrupted by emma's muffled voice against the bathroom door, calling out your name, “can you hurry the fuck up? i feel disgusting.” she calls, followed by the rattling of the doorknob as she tries to open it. you quickly move your hand to clamp it over your mouth, muffling out your whimpers.

kazutora seems unbothered, too distracted getting drunk on your scent as he tugs on the waistband of your shorts, sliding it down your legs with your panties as he glances up at you, expecting you to answer and dismiss her. nothing's stopping him this time, not when your pretty pussy is displayed in front of his eyes. you can't expect him to stop.. not when he's been craving you, not with his pants getting tighter, rubbing against the annoying confinements of his boxers. if he can't fuck you now, the least he could do right now is eat you.

and you both did just that, "yeah, just.. give me a second emma I'll be right out!" you manage to call out, running your fingers through his hair as he buries his face into your pussy, his tongue slid over your clit. emitting a moan out of you as he licks you again, he flicks his tongue back and forth slowly over that swollen nub.

every flick made your body jerk, whimpering as you watched him. his eyes remaining fixed on you as his lips closes around your clit, his tongue rolling over it, brows furrowing in desperation, moaning against you as if he's tasting heaven on his tongue. his fingers digging into your hips. you cry out quietly, gasping at the feeling of his tongue against you—something you haven't felt in too long, and not this fucking good either.

you start to feel the ache building up slowly, speeding up as you hear emma's continuous knocking on the door. hearing muffled little 'hello?'s' and 'hurry up's' and whatever the hell she was saying through the door, you didn't even care anymore, not with kazutora devouring you alive right now with his sexy honey-colored eyes fixed on you so intensely.

you whimper against your hand, nodding your head at him repeatedly, silently telling him to not stop as his tongue fucks into you, going in and out, making your legs squeeze around his head and desperately grinding on his tongue. earning a needy moan out of him, the tip of his dick leaking pre from how hot you are right now. he loves it when his tongue is being used by you.

you move your hand to his soft hair, tugging at it. you're close, so damn close, your ears completely muting emma's persistent knocks and doorknob rattling as your brain only focuses on him and his tongue, your vision starts to blur around him as his head bobs side to side, hearing his earring jingle as his tongue glides across your folds, moving back to your clit, sucking on it as your legs begin to shake.

you curl your lips inwards to hold back your moans, melting onto his mouth as the coil bubbling in your belly finally snaps in a rushed climax. you let out a gasp, quickly silencing yourself by biting your bottom lip as he licks your mess up, not missing an opportunity to fully taste you.

he hums, reluctantly pulling away from your pussy he calls a delicacy. chin, and lips still wet from you as he moves his hand back to barricade you. "wanna keep eating you.." he whispers, almost coming out like a whine. his hand slides up to your hips, moving you closer against his crotch and pushing himself onto you, making you feel how hard he is against you.

a gasp emits out of your lips, and just as you are about to speak, emma does it for you. "what the fuck are you doing in there?!" banging on the door even louder than before, causing unnecessarily too much attention around you.

kazutora clicks his tongue and lets out a heavy sigh, “of course.”

you let out a scoff, leaning your head back against the mirror again. “i don’t think the universe wants this to happen.” you tease, trying to lighten up the mood but he still looks frustrated.

“fuck the universe for that,” he mutters, stepping back reluctantly, his gaze lingering on you for a moment before picking up your shorts and soaked panties. looking down at the fabric before bringing it up to his nose, inhaling it in front of you shamelessly. "let me keep this."

"no! kazutora i can't be walking around with no panties on, give it." you reach out for your panties as he moves them up from your reach. "but I want something to remember this by.. come on." he says with a smile, almost convincing you from how fucking hot he's being, you cup his cheeks, running your thumb on his lips. "you've got more than enough to remember this by." you quickly snatch your panties from him, putting them on with your shorts as he, once again, shamelessly checks you out from behind.

he then wraps his arms around you, pressing light kisses to your neck, tickling you. until emma interrupts yet again.

"oh my god, you better be dead in there or I'm ditching you!" she shouts through the door, her frustration obvious not only to you but to bystanders nearby.

"alright, fine! jesus!" you call back, exasperated. kazutora groans and rolls his eyes, begrudgingly pulling away from you, his eyes still fixed on you. even as he backs toward the door, his gaze unwavering as he unlocks and opens the door for you, unbothered by emma's presence.

emma stands there, her mouth slightly open, clearly confused by the sight of kazutora inside with you. she wasn’t expecting him to be there, much less the two of you together. you slip out beside him, flashing her a sheepish smile, but Kazutora barely acknowledges her, his focus still on you as he finally steps back, nonchalant as ever. he strolls off, ignoring the curious looks from nearby as emma’s earlier outburst had clearly drawn attention.

emma rolls her eyes and lets out an exaggerated sigh, grabbing your hand. “come on, we’ve got shit to do.” she mutters, pulling you toward the forest where senju and yuzuha were waiting.

you step outside—pulled outside really—weaving through the camp where preparations for the halloween party are in full swing, people swarming mitsuya to alter their costumes, guys passing by, blocking your path and forcing you to go around them as they carry more hefty tree logs toward the center of the camp, a makeshift bonfire already starting to take shape.

your eyes drift to the right as a familiar car pulls up near the entrance. rindou and his brother ran hop out, hauling bags filled with battery-operated halloween decorations—speakers, candles, everything needed to throw a full-blown party without electricity. rindou’s crew—slaves—, rush to help, gathering boxes and bags and carrying them to the cabin where the party’s taking place.

you continue toward the trees, where senju and yuzuha are deep in conversation. their voices are hushed, as if talking shit about somebody, catching bits and pieces as you approach.

“yeah, ever since takemichi disappeared, he’s been… different. more persistent with her, it’s weird.” senju says, crossing her arms in discomfort.

you reach them, slipping into the conversation. “who are we talking about?” your gaze drifts, searching for the victim of their discussion.

emma steps closer to you as she points discreetly toward the chairs where a small group is gathered. “see that guy with the glasses? sitting next to hanma.”

you spot the victim immediately—kisaki tetta. not from emma’s description but because his eyes were already on you. and for a second, it felt like time has stopped. his eyes were so sharp and calculating, almost like he’s aware you’re talking about him. something about his stare makes your skin prickle—like he knows exactly what’s going through your head. the corners of his lips quirk up just for a split second. hina’s complaining about that giving her attention?

“yeah,” you murmur, dragging your eyes away from his. you fight the urge to do something silly, like twirl your hair and kick your feet.

emma crosses her arms, leaning into her stance like she’s about to go to war. “he’s got this weird obsession with hina. they used to be friends back in elementary, but then he turned into a total douchebag.”

yuzuha scoffs, “and now he thinks he can compete with takemichi. not like.. takemichi’s cuter or whatever.. but still.”

“kinda cute…” you let it slip out before you can stop yourself, putting your hand over your mouth as if you said something to the wrong audience.

emma turns to you, her eyes narrowing as if you’ve just betrayed the entire group. “i hope to god you mean takemichi.”

senju steps in, resting her hands on your shoulders. “actually.. distracting him away from hina might be good for her, at least until we find takemichi.”

you raise your hands defensively, “ohh no, no, no.. I’m not going to be whoring around this halloween all because you want hina’s boytoy off her dick.. besides, i’ve already got someone in mind.”

emma’s brow furrow teasingly, a smirk plays at the corner of her lips, “kazutora?”

“what? no! he wasn’t part of the plan!” you protest a little too quickly.

“wasn’t?” yuzuha teases even more.

“oh yeah, she had her eyes set on baji keisuke.” emma whispers in yuzuha’s ear loud enough for you to hear.

you groan, rolling your eyes. “wow, can you say that any louder?”

“i mean, i’ve already seen how kazutora was practically eating you in the bathroom. i don’t think you can score better than that with keisuke, at least before the getaway’s over.”

at that, both senju and yuzuha gasp dramatically, with little ‘how come you never told us!?’ and ‘where were we during this?’

you shake your head, “i’ll tell you two later! i feel too gross to be standing around right now.” you wave them off as you start to head toward the lake, watching them head back to the cabin giggling as you and emma start walking toward the lake. “and it was nothing. we barely even kissed.”

“uhuh, right. okay.”

you stop abruptly, turning to face her and grabbing her shoulders. “okay, listen. if i tell you this, you have to swear you won’t tell anyone. especially keisuke.”

emma’s eyes widen, “you’re calling him keisuke now? oh my god, what season did I miss? did i skip a few episodes?”

“emma. swear.”

“alright, alright! i swear.” she holds her hands up in surrender, “so, spill it. what’s going on?”

you hesitate for a second, scanning the area to make sure no one’s listening. “kazutora and i did coke together.. and, there may or may not were some tension...”

emma gives you a long, suspicious look, “there’s some details missing… i can tell from your face.”

“no important details. just little kisses on my legs and all that, but it stopped when the power went out.”

emma crosses her arms, tilting her head. “then why are you being so secretive about it?”

“because he told me not to tell anybody, and i kinda figured that he meant keisuke.”

“hmmm.”

you narrow your eyes at her, trying to read her expression. “do you know why he doesn’t want keisuke to know?”

she shrugs, “your guess is as good as mine.”

as you both finally reach the lake, you spot a few empty shampoo bottles littered on the ground, men’s shampoos to be exact. guess everybody had the same idea, although they could’ve at least picked up after themselves. “y’know, for being known as rich.. they couldn’t afford showers in this dump?” you remark.

“you think they give a shit about quality from a place with history like this?” she responds. emma wastes no time, quickly peeling off her clothes and stepping into the water. you hesitate, glancing around nervously as you undress, feeling a little too exposed right now.

“hurry up before it gets cold!” she calls, already waist-deep in the water. “god, i needed this.”

you step into the lake, the warm water enveloping you as you sink into it, letting out a sigh of content. the water really was just as mikey described, hot and relaxing. you dip your face under, wiping the water from your eyes as you emerge.

“we should’ve brought some shampoo,” you mutter, eyeing the empty bottles floating around, pushing them back to the shore.

emma leans her head back, letting the water get into her hair. “it’s not worth it. i’ll need another shower after the party anyway. can’t be wasting it.”

“true..” you murmur, gazing up at the sky.

for a few moments, it’s quiet—just the sound of water lapping against your bodies and the soft rustling of trees. that’s a surprise, your not paranoid about silence anymore, this is a nice feeling.

emma suddenly breaks the silence, her voice low, almost as if she’s been holding it in for too long. “i haven’t spoken to ken all day.”

you turn your head toward her, sensing there’s more she wants to say.

“i didn’t think he’d tell the gang something so personal, y’know? i didn’t even tell you guys about it… i just thought it’d be fair if he kept it between us too.”

you stay quiet, not wanting to interrupt, though you really wanted to know the context, what’s gotten them all so tense yesterday, but you didn’t wanna pry, not when she’s pouring herself out to you.

she takes a breath, staring at the water. “he got me pregnant.. and i had an abortion without telling him.”

the words hit like a wave, and though you try to keep your face neutral, emma already caught the surprised expression on your face before it disappeared, she chuckles a bit at that.

“i just… i thought he’d run away,” she continues, her voice trembling slightly. “that’s a lie, i know he wouldn’t.. i like to comfort myself with that thought so i won’t feel shitty about it. but, a part of me didn’t want to tell him because i knew he’d convince me to keep it. saying he’s ready to be a dad and stuff, but i knew i wasn’t, and he didn’t take that lightly.”

“what do you mean?” you ask, softly.

she stays silent for a minute before letting out a big sigh, “he kinda took it as me saying i didn’t want a baby with him. it wasn’t that. i just wasn’t ready. that’s it.” emma pauses, dipping her hand into the water, swirling it around absently. “we fought about it—bad. even manjiro got involved. everything went to shit after that. which.. was out of character for him, yeah. but things were already going pretty bad for the gang, him and mikey fought before and this just kinda made it worse i guess.”

“emma, I’m so, so sorry…” you want to reach over and hug her, but the fact you’re both naked stops you. instead, you extend your hand toward her, and she takes it, squeezing gently.

“it’s okay. it’s been a year since then, we never really talked about it after… until today. i didn’t think it’d get brought up again, especially not like that.”

“that was really messed up of kazutora, I’m sorry you had to go through that.” you squeeze her hand back.

she lets out a bitter laugh. “don’t apologize for him. yeah, he’s been all up on you lately, but still…”

you smile softly. “i can drop him for you, you know?”

emma’s eyes widen, shaking her head quickly. “no, no! please don’t. that’s the last thing i need right now. he’s already being fucking insane i don’t need you depriving him of pussy too.”

she dips her hair back into the water, letting the warmth wash over her as she sinks deeper into the lake. “and then there’s hanma… it’s like he has a sixth sense whenever ken and i are having issues.”

you raise an eyebrow, “what, he hits you with a ‘you up?’ text?”

emma lets out a dry laugh. “literally! no joke, he’s exactly that cliché. he’s the type who goes after vulnerable women in relationships just for the thrill of it.“ she pushes back her hair from her face, getting all the water out. “and back then, he had this weird phase of being obsessed with taking a girl’s virginity, especially mine. like.. i wasn’t even a backdoor virgin at the time.”

you wrinkle your nose, cringing. “okay, i didn’t need to know that.”

she rolls her eyes. “oh please, like i haven’t told you worse.”

you let out a laugh, shaking your head. “how could you resist him though.. I mean, the guy’s hot. he’s got the height, the eyes…”

emma’s expression drops into a deadpan “are you only attracted to the absolute worst of the worst? be honest.”

“emma, don’t even try to deny it.”

she sighs, tilting her head as if considering for a moment. “at first? maybe, before I really knew him. but after dealing with his antics for so long, the charm kind of wears off, and ken is my type, not hanma.”

“ugh, your no fun..”

“bitch, please. if your definition of ‘fun’ is kisaki and hanma, i’ll pass. and stick with keisuke—he’s better for you mentally.”

you scoff, leaning back in the water. “not really… he gives such mixed signals, he was driving me crazy yesterday.”

before you can elaborate, emma suddenly perks up. “hold that thought! i really should’ve brought a bikini before jumping in here.” she stands, the water sliding off her skin as she quickly grabs her clothes to put them on. “you want me to grab yours too?”

you glance around, feeling a little exposed now that she’s mentioned it. “yeah, please. i’ve been feeling a bit too vulnerable out here.”

she pulls her wet hair out of her shirt, then nods toward the trees. “gotcha. i’ll be back.” she starts walking toward where the cabin is, disappearing into the forest and leaving you alone with the quiet ripples of the lake.

you float lazily in the warm water, letting your body relax as your mind drifts back to yesterday. glad she didn’t pretend nothing happened like those guys did, especially mikey. he was still acting the exact same this morning, although they do have a history of forgetting their arguments but this one was too intense, guess they were just too drunk. it’s pretty frustrating though, it’s like no one but you had felt the weight of what happened.

you tilt your head back into the water, exhaling softly. your mind drifting to the cut on kazutora’s arm, sure you were just as fucked up as they were but you seriously don’t remember him getting a cut from the glass, or anything really. maybe him and keisuke fought after? that would explain keisuke’s bruises.. if that’s so.. that fight must’ve been intense.

the water’s stillness is suddenly interrupted by the realization that emma’s been gone for too long. you push yourself up slightly, scanning the edge of the lake for any sign of her. nothing. the trees remain undisturbed, quiet except for the occasional rustle of leaves from the wind.

you stand, the cool air hitting your wet skin immediately. as you step out of the lake, you instinctively reach for your clothes, only to find them missing. what the fuck? you start to scan the area, checking to see if they might have fallen or been moved by the wind. maybe emma took them with her? but something about that doesn’t sit right. she wouldn’t pull a prank, not after being so vulnerable with you a couple minutes ago.

your heart starts to race as your eyes dart around, feeling more and more exposed, you cover yourself with your arms while searching for anything to do the job for you. finally, you spot a towel draped over a rock nearby. it’s ridiculously small, probably meant to be a face towel, but it’s your only option. you wrap it around yourself as best as you can, covering what’s most important, though it barely does the job.

still shivering from the cold, you tiptoe into the forest, leaves and dirt clinging to your feet. you were wet and vulnerable, like a prey ready to be pounced on. the dense canopy overhead makes everything seem darker, and the chill in the air feels sharper against your damp skin. every rustle of leaves makes you jump, paranoia creeping in. great, just as you were about to celebrate the fact that you weren’t as paranoid anymore.

as you step deeper into the forest, the towel clings to your wet skin, barely offering any warmth, and you clutch it tightly, scanning the dimly lit path for any sign of Emma or your missing clothes. “emma?” you call out, although your voice doesn’t seem to be reaching to the cabin, it’s as if no matter how loud you scream no one will hear you. why did your thoughts lead to that?

each rustle of leaves and crack of twigs beneath your feet seems to make you twice as more paranoid, as if somebody’s trailing behind you, but this time it’s not all in your head, someone actually is following you.

you hear something—faint at first, like a low chuckle. you freeze in place, your heart skipping a beat as the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. not right now, not right now! the chuckle echoes again, a deep, mocking sound.

“lose something?” a familiar voice drawls from behind you, sending a chill down your spine that has nothing to do with the fact that you’re wet and naked.

you turn around slowly, hoping that it’s just a hallucination. unfortunately, it wasn’t. you spot hanma shuji, standing a few feet away, leaning casually against a tree, with your underwear dangling on his finger, his lips curling into a lopsided grin as he witnesses your terrified eyes, his eyes expanding at the sight of it.

“you’ve gotta be kidding me…” you mutter, your voice betraying the anxiety you’re trying to suppress. you tighten your grip on the towel, taking a step back away from him, considering bolting for it or fighting him for your underwear, at least you would only worry about the top being exposed.

you feel hanma’s eyes slowly travel down your body, his gaze lingering on the damp skin left exposed by the tiny towel.

“oh, come on now,” he pushes himself off the tree, taking a step closer to you. “you don’t need to be so shy, not after the little show you’re putting on.” he teases.

you clear your throat, “hanma, give it,” you demand, trying to keep your voice steady, though you can’t ignore the way your pulse is racing.

hanma lifts the underwear higher, inspecting them with exaggerated disinterest with a hand on his chin. “hmm, i don’t know. you’re looking pretty good like this. s’ a shame to cover up so soon.” his eyes flick back to you, filled with that lazy, predatory hunger look in his eyes that always seems to follow him.

“don’t push it,” you snap, though your voice falters just a little. you try to stand your ground, but with nothing but the thin towel to cover you, you can feel your confidence slipping. oh fuck. you need that underwear now.

hanma tilts his head, his grin widening, clearly enjoying every second of this. “black, huh?” he muses, raising an eyebrow as he gives you a slow, teasing once-over. he clicks his tongue in mock frustration, “damn, was betting on white, y’know.. ” he trails off.

you feel your face heat up instantly, did he hear what you and emma were taking about? “what the fuck does got to do with anything?!”

hanma chuckles at your reaction, twirling your underwear around his finger. “unless you’re gonna tell me you’ve been keeping yourself pure for someone special,” he says, his voice dropping low, the words rolling off his tongue with that smug, knowing tone, “are you?”

your eyes narrow, fighting the urge to lunge at him and snatch your clothes back. “why does that matter, huh? can you just give me my clothes back?”

“answer my question and i’ll give it to you.” he takes a step closer, forcing you to step back into the tree. “are you, or are you not?” his gaze flicks back down to the towel, then to your face.

you grit your teeth, fighting to maintain control. “that’s none of your business.”

he bites his lip, shaking his head while looking down at your underwear, fiddling with the lace. he then dangles your underwear in front of you once more, but still keeps them just out of reach. “i’d kill to see you walk to the camp like this anyway..”

you might actually bolt for it this time, you glance back toward the camp, where you can already hear the faint sounds of people talking and preparing for the halloween party. the idea of walking through the crowd like this, wrapped in a towel barely covering a thing, makes you wanna curl up and fucking die. your eyes dart back to hanma, who’s watching you with that insufferable smirk of his, clearly eating up every second of your discomfort.

you sigh, shoulders sagging in defeat. “can i please have my clothes back?” your voice comes out soft, almost pleading, just barely above a whisper as you stomp your feet in frustration.

hanma tilts his head, matching the soft sound of your voice in a way to mock you, “answer my question first.” you should be pissed but jesus christ did he sound so fucking hot doing it.

you clench your jaw, knowing you’re trapped. there’s no way around it, not with how he practically has you pinned to the tree, you look away from his gaze. “okay! alright! i’m not a virgin, whatever! give it back.”

but hanma only scoffs, “you think I’m just gonna give this to you without proof?”

proof? is he fucking crazy? proof? your breath catches, and you feel your stomach drop. “proof?”

he steps closer, the gap between you shrinking as he looks down at you, biting his lip. “let me check.”

your stomach tightens, heat rushing to your face. “what do you mean ‘let me check’? you can’t just—”

he cuts you off, “you want your clothes back or not?” his grin widening, shameless as ever.

is this why emma fucking despises him? cause now you’re starting to get it. you stood frozen, heart pounding, chewing on your lip as your mind races. there’s no way you’re going to let him get away with this, but the way he’s looking at you, the way his voice dips so low, makes it impossible to think straight.

“so?” he leans closer, his breath brushing your ear. “you gonna let me?” he drags his fingers along your curves, going down to your thigh. and unfortunately, your body betrays you. your mind locked onto the feeling of his fingertips drifting your thighs, going between, accepting the sensation of his fingers drifting up from your inner thighs to what’s next to it. kazutora’s unfinished business is being handed to hanma, and somehow, you’re not complaining.

a part of you enjoys the way he toys with you, the way he put you in such a humiliating position just for his own pleasure, just to see you crack. and a part of you wants to crack for him, you can’t hide your masochism forever. unfortunately for you, as much as you try to deny it, and pretend you got self respect and dignity, your body will always betray you.

he chuckles against your ear, as if what he’s feeling on his fingers is unbelievable. “you’re fucking wet.” he whispers, and he hasn’t even touched you yet.

you let out a whimper, almost loud enough for the camp to hear but he quickly covers your mouth. “you don’t want them seeing you like this do you?” he speaks against the back of his hand.

you repeatedly shake your head, already tearing up and he barely did a thing to you. “why’re you crying?” he murmured, his gaze softening at the sight of your tears, but his dick was far from soft at that. his knuckle grazes beneath your chin, tilting your head up, forcing you to meet his gaze. but it wasn’t gentle, no, it was patronizing. “do i need to shut that mouth of yours?”

a soft pout forms on your plump bruised lips as you peer up at him through your lashes, your eyes wide, almost pleading—an instinctive reaction to his taunt.

hanma tilts his head, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips. “you’re really bringing out the big guns with those puppy eyes, huh?” he then holds your underwear up, stretching it out enough to use it to gag you with it, he then stuffs your mouth with it, tying it to the back of your head.

“bite.” he demands, and you comply, earning little whispers of ‘good girl’ and ‘you look so damn pretty like this’ against your lips as he leans in to kiss you, soaking up your underwear from it, his thick tongue rushes over your own, feeling yourself getting wetter as you silently wish emma doesn’t come back for you.

he then breaks the kiss, yanking the towel off your grasp and exposing you completely to him as he throws the towel aside, the sharp cold air hitting you enough to twitch. before you had time to react, he sinks to his knees, grabbing your thighs and spreading your legs open enough for him to go in between, “that’s a pretty fuckin’ pussy..” he mumbles right in front of your folds before spitting on it to make it easier for what he’s about to do to you. his warm breath fanning your cunt as he uses his ‘sin’ etched hand to lightly play with your clit, watching you twitch and pulsate against his fingers. humming little ‘mhm’s as he inserts two fingers inside you.

you practically melted on him, “so tight..” he coos, “not a virgin, huh?” he teases, you couldn’t even look at him anymore from how humiliating this is, biting your panties to muffle out your moans, and he couldn’t have that either.

he clicks his tongue, “let me hear you.” he says irritatedly as he pushes himself up from the ground to loom over you, wrapping his fingers around your neck with his ‘punishment’ etched hand, forcing you to look up at him again as he speed up his fingers. shamefully, his long fingers feel so fucking good inside you, and your body can’t help but react to it.

“don’t be ashamed about it.. wouldn’t expect a girl like you to be alone for this long. hey.. am i the only one that went this far in the camp? tell me.” he whispers huskily as he tightens his fingers around your neck.

you replied with muffled choked whines, but instead, he moves his hand from your throat to grab your chin, forcing you to nod your head at his question. “yeah? such an honor.” he gets his face closer to your lips, hovering over it as his ‘punishment’ hand moves to your thigh, lifting it up to get better access as he goes knuckles deep into your pussy, making you almost short circuit. “y’know, you’re all the guys have been going on about. couldn’t help but wanna get a taste of what they’re cravin’.. maybe ruin it for them too while i’m at it.” you tightened around his fingers at that, making his brow raise and let out a deep chuckle, “ohh, you liked that huh.”

your eyes rolled back as you leaned your head against the bark, you couldn’t even tell if it’s because of his words or how good his finger feels. and of course, he would turn this into a competition. it makes perfect sense that he’d chase after someone the guys won’t shut up about. that’s just who he is—a thrill-seeking asshole, always needing to one-up everyone else. the exact kind of man emma kept warning you about. but you just can’t ignore feeling yourself make a mess on his fingers, soaking and tightening around it even more every time he speaks, like the dirty fucking whore you are.

he pulls it out, putting it in his mouth to suck on, making sure you’re looking up at him as he tastes you. “mmm, mhm.. you’re ready.” he leans in to meet your lips with his again into a sloppy wet kiss against your panties while he unzips his pants, slipping it down to his thighs as he gives himself slow strokes, precum already dripping down his dick.

he breaks the kiss, biting his lip as he grabs both your thighs and lifts you up, supporting you with the tree he’s got you pinned in. the rough bark scratching your bare back painfully but you don’t care anymore. instinctively, you wrap your legs around his hips.

“hold onto me better.” he murmurs, you wrap your arms around him and dig your nails on his back for support, leaving behind stinging lines from your nails as he digs his onto your hips, angling your wet slit on his tip.

your eyes widened looking down at him: his cock is pierced, a curved silver bar fitted through the underside of his tip. you’ve never seen that before— never even thought someone would do that—and you could scarcely imagine how that would feel inside you, and he’s sooo fucking huge too. for a guy who used to be obsessed with being the one to take a girl’s virginity, with a size like his, combined with the piercing.. that would feel so painful, but you assume he’d be into breaking girls like that, making them bleed on his dick, and gosh does that thought turn you on.

it’s so indecent the position he has you on currently, it’s so indecent that you just got your pussy eaten by a different guy you barely know too. this wasn’t even the plan at all, you didn’t plan to have hanma shuji driving his pierced cock deep into your pussy right now, you didn’t plan to have your cunt squeezing his dick either, making him question if what you said about you not being a virgin is true from how goddamn tight you are. you didn’t plan to have your pussy eaten on the second day of the getaway and yet here you are. in the middle of nowhere against a tree with a seven inch deep in your stomach, you can’t even complain about the cold anymore, not with his hot dick and pre already coating your insides.

“ohhh fuck, look down.. look down at it angel, watch how it fucks you.” hanma chokes, his face scrunched up with need from how good your pussy’s swallowing him. you roll your head down to watch him stretch you open, resting it on his shoulder while watching your skin clap against his as his veiny dick disappears into you, making your clit throb as he drives himself into you over and over. your mouth now dry since you drooled all over yourself, the sight only making hanma even harder from how braindead you look.

you lean back against the bark again, tears rolling down your cheeks, sniffling. so cute to him, so cute as he’s continuously pounds his cock into your puffy, swollen pussy. with each heavy thrust, he hits your spot, making you cry out for him as his hips interacted with yours. and you can’t help but make hanma’s back bleed as he cusses under his breath.

you’re ready to cum, so close to it you feel it in the pit of your stomach as your eyes roll back, a moaning, drooling mess. “uh-uh,” he says sternly, “look at me.. look at me while i fucking ruin you, c’mon.” he growls, getting even more aggressive as he stretches your legs further up. his dick bulging out of your tummy. he wasn’t even looking at you either, his eyes were on your tits, bouncing each time he thrusts his hips into you. he can’t help it either, every single inch of you is hypnotizing to him.

you let out a soft mewl, breath hitching as you feel yourself coat his dick, the slapping sounds getting wetter, almost echoing through the trees. it all comes crashing down at you as the ache in your stomach snaps, squirming against his grip, legs twitching and hips bucking against him. you feel so, so painful and sore now but that’s an issue for you to worry about later.

he pulls out his dick, a part of you wishes he didn’t as you already start to miss him being inside of you. he starts to stroke it. speeding up as thick, pearl white cum oozes out of his pierced tip, dripping on your stomach and your rhinestone belly piercing, making it shine for him as he groans at the sight. “so damn pretty..”

he pushes himself against you more to pin you hard against the tree for support as he scoops up a bit with his middle finger, grabbing the panties from your mouth and pulling it down to your neck, shoving his middle finger down your throat. “suck.” he orders, making your clit throb one last time at that.

and you did just that, his purple eyes were focused on your lips as you glide your tongue against it, keeping your doe eyes locked on his as you start to moan around him, his mouth fell open with a desperate sigh as you were sucking down hard on his finger and letting your tongue tease its tip.

you take the chance to distract him with your mouth as you undo your underwear from the back, trying your best to imitate as if your sucking his dick, his eyes remaining on you with such intensity. you finally undo it, swiftly hiding your underwear behind you as you let go of his finger with a lick, purposely letting a string of saliva still attached.

“how am i supposed to let you go after that..” he says with a hunger so unmistakable and raw it made your legs weaken, almost convincing you to stay with him a little longer. you bring your fingers to your lips, kissing them softly before grazing them against his mouth. his body that was pressing on you momentarily loosening. taking that chance, you kick him back away from you with all the strength you can muster. his surprised expression is the last thing you see before bolting.

quickly snatching the towel from the ground, you barely manage to wrap it around yourself as you dash away from him, wiping away remnants of him on your stomach as the cold air hits your skin again. your heart races as fast as your feet as you sprint toward the camp, the towel slipping dangerously, barely covering you.

finally reaching the camp, your worst nightmare—aside from being murdered—begins in slow motion before you. a couple eyes snap at you, conversations freezing mid-sentence as people halt whatever they were doing, gawking at your half-covered figure. you should've at least worn your underwear before running here so you would only have your tits to worry about, but something about the thought of you running around in your underwear sounds just as worse as right now.

you don’t even have time to process the embarrassment creeping up your neck as your grip tightens around the towel, fingers trembling as it threatens to slip from your grasp. you make a desperate dash across the camp toward the girls’ cabin, each step feeling like you’re running through thick mud, the weight of humiliation heavier than anything you’ve ever carried.

please, not now, not like this…

one pair of eyes catches your attention more than the others. you recognize the blonde hair streaked with blue—fucking rindou haitani. his eyes were locked on you, widening as he covers his mouth with his hand, trying—and failing—to hide a grin. he leans over, nudging his brother ran with an elbow, chin pointing directly at you.

great. didn’t even need to get anyone into bed for them to see you half-naked. already crowned the whore of the century in just two days. heat floods your face, prickling your skin as humiliation grips you tighter than the towel ever could.

you quicken your pace, legs trembling beneath you. just when you think you can make it, you hear someone call out, something about hanma. wait—hanma? why is he brought up?

your blood runs cold in realization. no. no, no, no.. don’t do this to me.

your breath hitches, and your question hangs in the air for a split second. as if on cue, hanma bumps into you from behind, his hands finding your waist as he nudges you to the side like you're in the way, "shit... didn't see you there," he says with a smug, half-assed apology, making his group break into jeering laughter, the kind that digs under your skin. he then appears in your line of sight, strolling across the camp casually, his usual lazy grin plastered on his stupid, stupid face, the action only fueling his group even more. you don't even need a crystal ball to figure out what they're thinking either-hanma and you alone in the woods, with you naked. the weight of their stares nauseating as he walks toward kisaki, mumbling something in his ear. whatever it is, makes kisaki glance your way, fucking great. now you've got kisaki's attention on you, and hanma’s aswell as his eyes drift back in your direction.

you can feel their stares—hanma’s eyes burning into you like he knows exactly how uncomfortable you are—and it’s unbearable. the humiliation indescribable, you’ve never felt more suicidal until now. your grip on the towel tightening as if it’s the only thing tethering you to reality.

then, before you can even think of bolting, a familiar, comforting voice yells through the camp, coming to your rescue.

“the fuck you looking at? huh?!”

your head snaps up, spotting draken at your side in an instant, quickly shrugging off his jacket and throwing it over your shoulders with no hesitation, the fabric heavy against your skin. your legs feel like jelly from the embarrassment, but draken catches on as his hand finds the small of your back, urging you forward.

“look away, you fuckin’ cunts!” draken barks, “nothing to see here, scram!”

you flinch at his words, the sharpness of his tone making the embarrassment feel even heavier now that all eyes are on you from how goddamn loud he's being, at least he has good intentions, but now you’re not sure whether you want to be hidden or to disappear entirely.

at the corner of your eye, the person you desperately wanna yell at—emma appears beside him, rushing toward you, her voice apologetic. “oh gosh, i’m so sorry! i didn’t mean to leave you out there!” she urges, her hands hovering uselessly near you as if trying to help without knowing how.

draken’s towering frame shields you as he leads you toward the cabin, you can still feel their eyes on you—the weight of their stares, lingering like fingerprints on your skin, but It’s all just background noise now.

just then, the cabin door bursts open, and mikey storms out, drawn by draken’s voice. his eyes widen as he spots draken and emma ushering you toward the girls’ cabin. “what’s going on? why are you naked?” mikey asks as he strides over, nudging you further inside gently as he closes the door behind him.

your heart pounds in your ears as your face reddens from embarrassment. legs giving out as you sink to the floor. your face burns, skin hot to the touch from the sheer mortification.

you’re not sure what’s worse—the fact that it happened or that they all saw it.

it was already sunset, 4 hours before the halloween party. you stroll toward the boys’ cabin with your costume in hand. your steps are quick since you don't wanna be seen by anybody else right now, the sting of embarrassment from earlier creeps back up your neck. on top of all that, you found out that emma conveniently decided to make up with draken, leaving you to fend for yourself naked in the woods. timing, right? but it’s whatever now, it already happened, what can you do.

the cabin door is left slightly ajar, and through the crack, you spot mitsuya sitting on the dining table, chatting with hakkai who's leaning on a chair in front of him, rocking it back and forth with his long leg. you vaguely remember hakkai witnessing that whole ordeal earlier since he was nearby helping the others carry logs. just your luck. with a sigh, you try to center yourself before pushing the door open further, letting it creak to announce your presence.

as you step inside, hakkai notices you immediately, his eyes widening in surprise before he quickly looks away, a faint blush creeping up his cheeks. he glances at mitsuya for some kind of signal. who only gives him a subtle nod, silently dismissing him.

hakkai stands awkwardly, muttering a quiet “see ya" as he shuffles past you. practically shrinking, avoiding eye contact. at least he didn’t comment or stare at you like the rest of the guys did earlier.

finally, mitsuya looks up from the table, giving you an easy smile like you didn’t just flash the entire camp. “hey, what’s up?” he greets, his eyes flicking to the costume you’re holding. “got something for me to fix?”

you cringe slightly at his casual tone. it’s only the second time you’ve really interacted with him, and you’re already asking for favors. you feel a little guilty, but then again, you only have four hours to get ready. “i hate to be that person, but i completely forgot to alter this… It’s too big on me, and I need it, uh… shorter.”

“don’t worry about it,” he says, hopping off the dining table, clearing it out for him to start working on your dress, grabbing his glasses from his head and putting it on. he looks so cute with his glasses on.. "hand it here.”

you pass him the costume, and he starts to feel the fabric between his fingers, laying it out on the table for a better look. “velvet, huh? i can work with this. how short do you want it?”

“umm…” you chew on the bottom of your lip, reaching for the dress as he moves back with his hands in his pockets, you fold up the bottom of the skirt, nearly half of it gone, showing him how short you need it. you smile sheepishly, feeling a bit ridiculous.

he stares at the fabric for a beat longer than necessary, chewing on the inside of his mouth. “you sure about that?”

“yeah,” you reply, more confident this time. “i’m sure.”

“can you, uh.. put it on so we can see exactly where you need it?" he suggests, still making sure you really want it that short.

“yeah, okay.” you take the costume back and slip it over your clothes. it’s loose around your waist, and the skirt falls all the way to your ankles. walking over to the giant body mirror, you fold the fabric up, bringing the hem slightly above the bottom of your ass. you glance back at mitsuya, who’s now standing behind you, hand on his chin as examines the skirt you’ve folded up. a quiet laugh slips out. he rubs the back of his neck, eyes darting between you and the absurdly short skirt.

“oh so you’re serious?” he asks, trying to hold back another laugh.

you glance at him through the mirror, your face heating up. “yeah, I’m serious,” you attempt to say confidently but you couldn’t help but crack a smile.

he stares for a moment longer, his eyes drifting over the costume and back to you. “that’s really short,” he says, shaking his head. “i’m not saying anything i’m just making sure you know what you want..” you can tell he’s debating whether to warn you about how impractical the length is—dancing, bending over… all risks.

“thanks for the concern, but, i know what i want, don’t worry mitsuya.” you mutter with a smile. it’s your costume, after all. with a shrug, he nods. “alright, i'll make it work. you mentioned tightening it around your waist, too?” he walks back to the dining table to grab a few pins.

“yeah,” you confirm, turning to the side in the mirror to inspect the fit. “it’s a bit loose.”

mitsuya moves behind you with pins in his mouth, his hands hovering near your waist, waiting for permission. you meet his eyes in the reflection and nod with a small smile. he gently runs his hand on your waist as if you are fragile, tightening the fabric at your waist, carefully placing a pin to hold it. then, he drops to his knees, pinning the skirt’s hem to the length you want, still hesitating but ultimately deciding to trust your choice. for a moment, it looks like he might add a bit of length without telling you, but he wouldn’t. the customer’s always right anyway.

“alright, you can take it off now,” mitsuya says as he stands up.

careful not to mess up the pins, you slowly slip out of the dress, folding it neatly before handing it to him. he walks back over to the dining table, already gathering his tools to start cutting and sewing.

you follow him, perching yourself on the edge of the table next to his work. watching him as he does his magic, focused and all, long lashes that almost brush his cheeks when he blinks, then to his lavender hair, holding the urge to run your hand through it, then at his hands as he takes off his rings, placing them to the side.

one of the rings catches your eye, resembling the cross earring he wears that you really liked, you hum in interest. without thinking, you reach for it, slipping it onto your thumb. the ring is far too big, but you try to make it fit, twisting it around, looking at the details. mitsuya, still cutting, notices the missing ring, his eyes flicking up to you. with a soft smile, he tilts his head slightly to grab your attention.

“you like it?”

you glance back at him, realizing you’d been caught playing with his ring. “oh—uh, sorry,” you say quickly, taking it off and setting it back on the table, feeling a little embarrassed.

“don’t be,” he says casually, his voice soft. “it looks good on your finger.”

“yeah… it doesn’t really fit though,” you mutter, tucking a loose strand of hair behind your ear as you place your hands in your lap, fingers fidgeting with the fabric of your pants awkwardly.

mitsuya’s gaze lingers on your hands fidgeting for a moment longer before he asks, “so, who’re you gonna be tonight?”

“bela dimitrescu,” you reply

he raises a brow, clearly not recognizing the name. “who?”

“she’s just some hot mutant from resident evil. you might recognize her when i put the costume on.”

“well, i’ll look forward to seeing that then.”

just as you’re about to ask him what he’s gonna be, your stomach growls, loud enough to make you freeze. mitsuya glances up at you with a soft smile tugging at the corners of his lips. “go eat while I finish this up.”

“yeah, okay,” you mumble, slightly embarrassed. “thanks for this, mitsuya, you really saved me.” hopping off the dining table, you give him a grateful smile before heading out of the boys’ cabin. your feet carrying you toward the main cabin, silently hoping that they brought an acceptable breakfast. you’d kill for some honey cheerios right now.

reaching for the cabin door, you pull it open and step inside, only to find two guys already there, mid-conversation—the haitani brothers. their words pause the moment you enter. making you hesitate walking in, but it’s too late to leave. their eyes are already on you, and turning back now would just make it look like you’re trying to avoid them.

they finally look away as you cast a smooth, subtle glance at ran without him noticing. he’s frowning so deeply it almost looked permanently etched to his face, his lips pursed as he sips his coffee. you hope it’s just a case of him not being a morning person, rather than something to do with your presence.

rindou, on the other hand, looks like he’s holding back a laugh as he stares down at his cereal, swirling it lazily with his spoon. you ignore the awkward tension and move to walk past, doing your best to seem unbothered. but just as you pass, you hear ran mumble, “no good showers… no good coffee… the cheap-ass motel nearby can at least give me a good shower.”

tell me about it, you roll your eyes at that, moving toward the cabinets and trying not to engage. you sift through the shelves, noticing most of the snacks are half-eaten or left wide open, gross.. what do you expect in a cabin full of guys? you turn around, finally spot something decent—a box of cereal right next to rindou.

“dude, we can leave after the party… quit whining,” rindou says, leaning back in his chair, still playing with his cereal.

you grab the box of supposedly protein cereal, lifting it to see how full it is. thank god, it’s brand new. you move over to grab a bowl and head to the sink, which ran is currently blocking with his brooding presence. he’s ignoring you, his attention still on rindou.

you let out a quiet sigh and clear your throat. “excuse me,” you mutter, hoping to avoid any unnecessary interaction with him.

ran side-eyes you but eventually steps to the side, he’s seems so grumpy. you quickly wash the bowl, hearing the brothers chatting again, but you’re too tuned out to catch their conversation. after grabbing a plastic spoon, you sit at the dining table and pour yourself a bowl of cereal, only to realize that the milk already out on the table is… lukewarm.

“goddamnit,” you mutter under your breath.

“goddamnit indeed,” ran quotes you, grimacing as he takes another sip of his coffee before slowly stepping out of the cabin to sit on the porch.

you dig into your cereal, grateful to get something in your stomach before getting fucked up tonight. but even that small comfort is ruined by the weight of rindou’s stare, first on you, then your cereal, like your mere existence is bothering him. his gaze feels heavy, almost like he’s expecting something. you glance up at him, your eyes lock with his, and he doesn’t look away. which only makes you eat faster, hoping to finish and get out of there as soon as possible.

“you know that’s my cereal, right?” he says with a brow raised.

you freeze mid-chew, looking at him with a mouthful, feeling caught. “i’m sorry,” you reply, your voice muffled by the cereal. “it’s just… everything else was already half-eaten or stale. i should’ve asked.”

“nah, you’re good, I don’t wanna shit on your morning like he always does with me.” he points his spoon toward where ran left, then scooping up some cereal for himself.

“is he always that grumpy?” you ask, still chewing while looking at ran’s back through a window.

“mmhm,” rindou hums in response, resting his head on his palm. giving you a once-over, a subtle smirk playing on his lips. you pretend not to notice his staring, focusing on your cereal like it’s the most interesting thing in the world.

“so, who are you, anyway?” he asks, breaking the silence again.

you pause, swallowing before responding with your name. “…i’m a friend of the sano’s.”

at the mention of their names, rindou straightens up slightly, his interest piqued. “oh, you’re with them? how come i don’t know you?”

you shrug in response, attempting to cut the conversation short since you still feel awkward about this morning but he seems persistent as he still keeps his goddamn eyes on you.

he leans back in his chair, his fingers drumming lightly against the edge of the table. “interesting. can’t believe mikey didn’t mention you.” the way he emphasized his name sounded almost like he’s mocking, “who’re you gonna be for halloween?” he tilts his head, as if he’s trying to piece together how you fit into their world.

you shift in your seat, feeling the intensity of his gaze, as if trying to study you. “uh… just some character from resident evil,” you say, wiping your mouth with a napkin.

“oh yeah? who from resident evil? i’m going as leon kennedy tonight.”

your face brightens at the mention of leon, but you kept your cool, trying to not fangirl as much. “bela dimitrescu, that one mutant from village. so, which leon are you gonna be?”

“damn…” he mutters, leaning back with a feigned sigh of disappointment. “was hoping you’d be ada. we could’ve matched, y’know.” he teases, his eyes narrow slightly as he looks you up and down before adding, “you know how he looked in resident evil 2? yeah, him.”

“you gonna wear a wig, too?” you finish up your cereal, only taking spoonfuls of milk now.

“pfft, nah… i don’t look good with brown hair.” he shakes his head, running his fingers through his hair.

“really? i think you’d look good.” you respond without thinking twice about the way you said it.

his eyes gleam as he sits up, leaning closer to you with his elbows on the table. “you think i look good with brown?”

you nod, trying to see what he’s getting at since what you said was completely innocent. “yeah, totally.”

he grins wider, “so you’re saying i look good?”

you roll your eyes, laughing it off, “okay… i didn’t say it like that!”

he crosses his arms, his arm tattoo distracting you enough to slip up. “so i don’t look good?” he tilts his head again like he’s waiting for you to stumble on your words.

“i didn’t say that either,” you shoot back.

“which is it then, huh, new girl?”

you stand up, grabbing your empty bowl and putting it in the sink, “come back with your leon costume and we’ll discuss.” you reply before heading out the cabin.

rindou watches you walk away, leaning back in his chair as you walk toward the door. “i better get an answer by then,” he calls out after you as you bite your lip, trying to suppress your giggles before finally stepping out the cabin.

you walk out toward the girls’ cabin, seeing some of the guys already loitering around, either borrowing makeup or pleading for help with their own. you vaguely recall mikey insisting on you doing his makeup too. ugh, how the hell will you manage both his and your makeup before the party even starts?

as you enter, you spot the girls halfway through their makeup routines, mikey planted beside emma while inspecting her makeup, and next to him, keisuke watches with the cutest look of confusion on his face as emma carefully applies her eyeliner. It’s hard not to let your eyes linger on him for a moment longer than necessary. not that he’d notice, though—his attention is all on whatever witchcraft emma’s doing.

mikey catches sight of you walking in and immediately perks up. “fucking finally, you gonna do the paint now?”

you raise an eyebrow, “who are you even gonna be?” you ask, pulling out your heavy SFX makeup from your bag with a sigh. the weight of it feels appropriate for the mess you’re about to deal with.

“I’m gonna be a vampire,” mikey replies, crossing his arms with a smirk plastered on his face, as if he’d just dropped some mind-blowing revelation.

you can’t help but deadpan as you drop the makeup bag onto the bed. as if you pulled it out for nothing, “mikey, you barely need makeup for that.”

in the corners of your eye, you catch keisuke approaching, your heart starts to race as you pretend to be casual about it, keeping your eyes on mikey as keisuke jumps in. “you gonna be a vampire? i was gonna be one.” his gaze remains stubbornly fixed on mikey, making you subconsciously pout. look at me, look at me!

“uh-uh, change. i called dibs on being a vampire in august,”

you cut in, “you’d make a pretty solid eric draven, keisuke,” you say with your hands clasped behind your back, holding yourself back from rocking side to side.

keisuke finally turns his head toward you, raising an eyebrow. “who?”

you feel your heart skip a beat—not because of him not recognizing an icon, but because, well, he’s looking at you. “he’s from the crow,” you explain. “you’ve never seen it?”

keisuke narrows his eyes at you in confusion, and just as you’re about to elaborate, kazutora, sporting cute little leopard prints on the sides of his face, slides in with his arm lazily draping around your shoulders. “what’s going on?”

“i was just telling keisuke he should be eric draven,” you reply, instinctively leaning slightly into kazutora’s touch.

“ohhh yeah, he kinda does look like him,” kazutora agrees, giving keisuke a light nudge. “you should totally do it.” a small part of you didn't want him to intervene. but another part of you says that kazutora can convince keisuke to let you do his makeup for the party. one, because you can touch his face without him being weirded out by it, and two, you get to see him in corpse paint.

keisuke looks between you and kazutora, brow raised in doubt. “you think so?”

“yeah! he’s got that corpse face paint metalheads do. plus, he’s got long hair, so you already got that down.” kazutora explains.

“so, i look like him just ’cause he’s got long hair?"

“nah, dude, it’s more than that. trust me, let her do the face paint. It’ll look sick.” kazutora finally slides his arm off of you, casually strolling away out of the cabin.

“what about me?” mikey suddenly whines, pulling your attention back.

“mikey… you literally just need fangs and some fake blood. you barely need anything else,” you say, turning to emma for backup. “right, emma?”

emma, engrossed in her makeup application, shrugs. “i don’t know what you just said, but yeah, sure,” she replies, turning up the volume on the music playing. body by summer walker flows through the speakers, indicating that she doesn’t wanna be bothered right now.

you move over to your bed, unzipping your makeup bag and grabbing the fake blood bottle to hand to mikey, "that'll work, just dab it everywhere on you." then you grab the essentials for keisuke's makeup, waving him off to sit anywhere so you can get started.

you stroll toward the dining table where everyone’s scattered their makeup tools, only to spot keisuke already sitting there, leaning on the chair, waiting while bouncing his leg.

his eyes meet yours as you move closer to him, steadying yourself in-between his legs as he moves to sit on the edge of the chair, closer to you. legs apart enough for you to stand in between, his hands loose on his thighs. occasionally cracking his fingers while you arrange your products away from the other girls'

you grab the first step of the makeup, the elf power grip primer, squeezing a bit of it onto your fingertips, his brows immediately furrow as soon as the cool, slightly sticky substance touches his skin.

“the hell is this? feels sticky,” he mutters, instinctively pulling back an inch.

you grab his chin, gently but firmly, bringing him back into place. “you want this stuff to last the whole night, don’t you?”

he grunts, still clearly annoyed by the texture as you wave it off to dry with your hand before grabbing the white under facepaint stick, carefully gliding the pale white makeup across his cheek, you didn't realize how tan he is until you added paint, noting in your head that he might need a double coat as you're making sure to cover every inch, but not touching his neck.

you try not to not be affected at how close he is, even though you're feeling his breath on you, and each time your fingers graze his skin, you swear his breathing deepens, just enough for you to notice. you're positive he can hear your heart hammering against your chest but you pretend to be unbothered—impossible—focusing more on doing his makeup.

you grab a brush to blend it all in, and your fingers brush his jaw as you tilt his head for a better angle. his skin is warm beneath your fingertips, a sharp contrast to the cold makeup. his eyes watching you closely, unreadable but so distracting, god why is he so fucking distracting.

you catch his gaze, and it’s like the air in the room shifts, you flash him a polite smile as you tilt his head again, blending the paint in with the brush. he huffs but doesn’t pull away this time, settling into the stool again.

as you move on to the actual white base, you dip the beauty blender into the paint and begin dabbing it across his skin. almost immediately, he makes a face,

“stop that,” you mutter, holding his chin steady with one hand, blending the paint in with the other.

he shoots you an exaggerated glare, eyes narrowed like a cat who’s been stepped on. “feels like you’re trying to knock me out.”

“you’d know if I was trying to knock you out, just stay still,” you mutter, though the words come out softer than you mean them to.

“you’re good at this,” he murmurs.

“i know a thing or two.”

you dab the beauty blender on his cheek again, harder this time just to mess with him, and he grumbles under his breath, crossing his arms over his chest. his long legs stretch out, and he shifts like he’s trying to get comfortable.

“oh—god, keisuke. please don’t move.” you say, exasperated. “you’re making this way more complicated than it needs to be.”

he doesn’t budge, instead choosing to stare at the ceiling, “I’m perfectly comfortable like this,”

you let out a frustrated sigh, “fix your posture, please?” you insist, tapping the side of his knee with yours. “you’re not helping me here.”

he keeps his gaze fixed on the ceiling, tongue gliding over his teeth before responding. “nah, i like it like this.” he settles into the chair even more to get comfortable.

you mutter a ‘jesus christ.’ and with a huff, you put your knee on the chair, positioning it right between his legs as you lean over him. the closeness makes it harder to focus on the makeup, but you’re determined to make this work.

you reach for a couple products to hold at hand as your hovering over him, “if this turns out to look like shit i’m blaming it on you.” you say. he’s unyielding, maintaining that ridiculous position, and you find yourself almost pressed against him as you try to get the angle right.

“yeah, that’s great,” he teases, his voice low, and you can’t help but roll your eyes at his stubbornness.

when you finally finish with the white, he runs his hand over his face, frowning at the texture. “this stuff feels weird.”

you quickly grab his hand, "don't touch your face it'll crease!" you start blending the part he touched to fix it.

he raises a brow, and his expression changes in a way where you could only describe as regret that he even agreed into this, "the hell's the point in this if i can't touch my face?"

you roll your eyes at his impatientness, pulling out a small container of powder. “don’t worry, it won't move when i set it with this.”

he eyes the powder suspiciously, “what is that?”

“guess.” you grin, covering the part of the container that says 'setting powder' with your finger.

he squints at it like he’s deep in thought. “glitter?”

you roll your eyes. “no, keisuke. it’s powder. you put it on top of the base paint so it 'doesn’t feel gross'.” you mock him, unscrewing the powder and dabbing it with a powder puff, dusting the access powder before applying.

he frowns but doesn’t argue, letting you dust the powder over his face. as you work, you notice his jaw relax a little, clearly less bothered by the texture now.

you reach for the dark eyeshadow palette on the table, trying to maintain your position against him as you tip over. just as you feel yourself wobble, his hands find your waist, steadying you on the chair. the suddenness of his touch almost actually made you tip over, the expensive palette slipping from your grasp as you freeze in place, awkwardly grabbing it before it fell on its face.

you then look up to see his reaction through the mirror, your breath hitch as you caught a glimpse of his confused expression, making you jolt back to reality. you quickly regain your composure, trying to shake off the flutter in your chest. “thanks,” you mumble, your voice steadier than you feel.

he, of course, says nothing about it, moving his hands back on his lap as you start on the black around his eyes, applying a generous amount all around it, when you reach for his waterline with your black pen, you feel him tense up again, squinting like he’s bracing himself for impact. you’re careful with the pen, making sure it doesn't bother him and yet he's still being a baby about it, “you’re getting it in my eye," he grumbles.

“no, i’m not. shut up and hold still.”

he huffs, but he keeps still, though you can feel the way he’s resisting the urge to blink. as you finish the last stroke, you step back, admiring the shape of the dark circles around his eyes. he opens them fully and stretches his face again, clearly trying to get used to the feel of the makeup. he's so annoying about it but so cute still.

you shift to the other side of his face, trying to ignore the way your fingers tremble slightly as you work on the black lines around his other eye. more calmer now and less freaked out over the pen.

“you’re done with that part, right? ‘cause it’s—” he frowns, shifting in his seat.

“yeah, yeah, I’m done.” you pull out the last piece of the look and hold it up in front of him with a grin. “alright, what’s this?”

he squints at the small tube you’re holding, his eyebrows drawing together in confusion. “lipstick?”

“wrong. it’s eyeliner.”

he mutters something under his breath but doesn’t protest as you move in closer again, tilting his head back to get the last lines around his lips. as you carefully draw the dark line around his lips, filling them in. his eyes stay locked on yours, and for a second, you pause, forgetting what you’re doing. It’s just you and him, his amber-colored eyes pulling you in like they always fucking do.

you watch his mouth move, mumbling a "you good?" with his soft-looking lips, fighting the urge to kiss him right here right now until you remembered where you were. there were people around, everybody is watching, he's watching, and you need an excuse on why you just stared at his lips for too damn long. "yeah, it's just.. I'm trying to figure out how to shape it to your lips."

he hums in response as his eyes blink to the ceiling, lifting a weight from your shoulders, finally giving you the chance to actually focus on doing his makeup.

when you move to line the corners of his lips, your thumb accidentally brushes the corner of his mouth. his eyes flick back at you at that, but he stays quiet, his lips part slightly as you paint the dark line.

you clear your throat, trying to ignore the way your hands feel warmer than usual. “stop staring. it’s weird.”

he slightly smirks in response, probably knowing how much his stare affects you. you scoff, but it’s hard to focus when he’s looking at you like that. you quickly regain your composure as you move to do the lines on his eye down to his cheek, keeping it quick and sharp. you finish the last line and step back quickly from him, and once you do, you feel like you can breathe now.

you reach for the final piece of the puzzle—the setting spray. the bottle makes a soft rattling noise as you shake it, and keisuke immediately looks suspicious.

“what’s that? perfume?” he asks with a furrow to his brows.

“setting spray,” you say, stepping in front of him again. “keeps everything in place so you don’t look like a melting corpse halfway through the night. now, close your eyes.”

he blinks a couple times at that, but he does as he’s told, closing his eyes. the moment you spritz the mist onto his face, he scrunches up like you just sprayed him with water from a hose, his entire face contorting.

“quit scrunching your face!” you laugh, “just relax.”

he dramatically holds his breath, still keeping his eyes shut tight but trying to loosen up. you spray another mist, and he manages to avoid flinching this time.

“there, done,” you say, stepping back to admire your work.

keisuke opens his eyes, blinking a couple of times as if testing whether everything is still intact. his fingers hover near his face, but he doesn’t touch the makeup.

“feels like i just got hosed down,” he mutters, now testing the feel of the makeup on his face, and his eyes return to yours. there’s a heaviness in the way he stands, the way his shoulders shift as he rises from the chair, towering over you now.

“well?” you ask, folding your arms. “how do you feel?”

keisuke stretches his face out again, eyes flicking to the mirror, “like a dead guy.” he reaches up, running a thumb over the edge of the makeup near his jawline. “you did a good job.”

“thank you.” you can’t help the smile that pulls at your lips as you watch him.

he tugs at his hair tie, running a hand through his hair, his intense gaze flicking over to you one last time.

“let’s just hope this shit doesn’t come off,” he mutters, “or else I’m blaming you.”

before you could speak, the cabin door creaks open, mikey, chifuyu and pah-chin strolling in, all done with their makeup and facepaint, on cue to keisuke being done as well.

mikey’s immediate reaction is to cackle, his fake vampire fangs gleaming, “keisuke, you look like you came out of a morgue!”

keisuke’s eyes cut to mikey, unimpressed. “your fangs are bigger than your teeth,” he deadpans.

mikey instantly shuts his mouth, clearly self-conscious about the oversized fangs, his grin shrinking into a scowl. “shut up.”

chifuyu, who’s been checking out keisuke’s makeup, steps closer, “you look like you’re ready for a metal concert,” he says, his tone amused.

pah-chin, who’s dressed as the joker with his own face painted up, snickers from behind them. “more like the circus.”

“you would know about that wouldn’t you?” keisuke smacks pah-chin’s head from the back as they all head out the door to leave the girls’ cabin. before he does, keisuke shoots a final glance at you, his eyes locking with yours for just a moment longer than usual before breaking it and stepping out.

after they finally left the cabin, you turn back at the mess you and keisuke made, the lingering warmth of him presence still evident, making you miss him already as you collect the scattered makeup items. just as you were about to start your makeup, the door swings open, and mitsuya steps in, a dress draped over his arms, looking almost comically small against his frame, the realization of how tiny the dress actually looks and how naked your practically gonna be just decided to hit you. “hey, almost forgot to bring this over,”.

“thanks, mitsuya,” you say, “i really need to hurry up.”

he glances at the mess you made on the dining table, “yeah, goodluck with that, see you at the party?” he says as he’s rushes back to the door, also needing to put on his costume.

“yeah, i’ll see you.” you say, rushing over to your side of the dining table, your heart racing as you quickly prepare, until you realize you almost forgot the most crucial part of the costume, “the blood! i need the fake blood for the look!, oh my god. mikey!!!” you shout, your voice echoing off the cabin walls, making emma flinch and almost fuck up her makeup.

Reader as Alastor's Mother part 2

Part 1!, Part 3!

𓋼 You would absolutely decorate his microphone with a bunch of ribbons you found!

And he would absolutely allow it in fear of upsetting you, although he began to take them off later on when he had to leave, but seeing you get sad at his actions changed his mind… It did not help that the ribbons were glittery.

“Oh look, Sparkles got sparklier!” Angel had said when Alastor was passing by.

𓋼 He wants you to be happy but don't even try having feelings for anyone in hell, they'll most likely 'disappear under mysterious circumstances' and then you'll just so happen to hear their screams on Alastor's radio broadcast <3

Lucifer tries to flirt everytime he sees you outside (or once he comes back to see the hotel which… would be 'some' time later…) But it's not long before Alastor shows up bcs he has a shadow follow you everywhere

“My mother certainly would not want someone so… ancient…”

“are you trying to make me sound like a fossil?”

“Maybe~ I can’t say for sure though!”

"Y'know, I've stolen wives before… maybe it's time to steal a mother instead!"

"I'm going to fucking kill you"

𓋼 Lucifer would play silly games with you and bring you gifts by leaving them at the hotel’s doorstep, although you never received any (like he thought you did) because Alastor would always take them before you saw them. Or he would make them his own to give to you if you were having a worse day than usual!

“Mother, I had noticed that you weren’t feeling all too great so I brought you a wonderful gift!”

“Oh, thank you, darling!”

Your mood always brightened when he gave you these gifts. 𓋼 One time when Lucifer visited the hotel, he went straight to you to ask you about how you liked the gifts.

"[Name]! Hello, deer, how are you? Did you like the gifts that I left you?"

"Hello Luci, I'm fine, thank you! … Gifts? what gifts?"

"The ones… that I left on the doorstep of the hotel!"

"I dont recall seeing any gifts there… but Alastor recently started leaving the hotel more often! Not for very long though…"

And then Lucifer realised. You never received his gifts because Alastor got to them first! After that, he made sure to put a note with his signature on them. Though, that still didn't deter Alastor, to Lucifer's dismay.

𓋼 One time, Angel returned to the hotel at an unreasonably late hour, so you went to make sure everything was alright.

"Are you alright, Angel?"

"Huh? No, I'm totally fucked!"

"Why? What happened?"

"You know Valentino right? My boss?"

"Of course I do, everyone hates him quite a bit here and you always talk about him"

"Right, well, fuckin' Val made me work an extra 10 hours!"

"He what?!"

"Yeah! Absolute bitch move."

Naturally, Alastor was watching and listening to you two so you turned to him, with quite the menacing look in your eyes.

"Oh Alastor, prepare your radio broadcast!~"

𓋼 You noticed that most of the residents of the hotel all came to you for advice quite often (except Niffty, she's just an entirely different entity)

"It seems they have become quite fond of you, Mother"

"They have, haven't they?"

Alastor's expression was always one of annoyance whenever someone came to you for help. He wouldn't dare admit it, but he was most certainly jealous of anyone who even stood too close to you, let alone talked to you.

𓋼 Because of that one time that Alastor stood right next to Charlie to spite Lucifer, Lucifer decided to stand just that close to you to get back at him.

"An eye for an eye, Mr Radio!"

"I recommend you watch yourself."

𓋼 One time, when you were out of the hotel and walking around Hell with Alastor, Vox just so happened to see you on one of his tv screens, Valentino sitting by him, messaging someone.

"Hey Val, who the fuck is that with that old-timey prick?"

"Hm? No clue."

"You didn't even look, fuckhead"

"How would you know? You're too busy eyefucking Alastor."

"I am not"

"She's probably just another one of those redemption hotel idiots. It doesn't matter"

But Vox still just glared at the screen.

𓋼 Vox continued to keep an eye on you, seeing just how wonderful you are and so when you were outside the hotel alone (or so he thought) he went up to you. Somehow he didn't catch onto the fact that you're Alastor's mother.

"Hello-"

"What do you think you're doing?" Alastor, of course, suddenly appeared out of thin air, standing in between you and Vox, with an even more annoyed smile than usual.

"Alastor, is this another one of your friends?"

"No-"

"Yes, absolutely, ma'am. Great friends, in fact!"

"Ha! Well, you see, this is my Mother."

"Your what?"

Yeah, Alastor simply walked away with you whilst Vox was buffering.

𓋼 Vox constantly tried to talk to you alone but Alastor was always there to stop him, so unfortunate.

"Would you stay away from my Mother, you-! Ahem, my apologies, Mother."

"Hah! Your mother? I think you meant our mother!"

𓋼 Alastor would absolutely cover your ears when swearing at, or insulting, anyone.

𓋼 When you first met Valentino, you were so mad at him on Angel's behalf that you knocked him out and brought him back to the hotel with you. Of course, Vox was there with Val but he was like a lost duckling, just slowly trailing behind you, unsure what to do.

"I'm back!"

"What the fuck did you do??" Angel was lying down on the couch when you entered, dragging the unconcious Valentino behind you.

"A favour to you and hell!"

"No, but how?!"

"That's a secret~"

"Ok… so why'd ya bring him here?"

"Redemption"

𓋼 Back to Lucifer! He would tell you random animal facts to try and impress you! He would also unironically ask around, and search up (if necessary), how to impress a woman.

𓋼 Lucifer would suddenly start playing the violin for everyone in the hotel 'for everyones' entertainment' as he called it. (It was meant for you though). Each time Lucifer did this, Alastor told you that something important happened that required your attention. You always stayed for the beginning though.

𓋼 One day, you were baking cookies and you and Alastor left the kitchen for a while whilst they were in the oven, however, you both somehow managed to forget about them… so when the smoke alarm suddenly rang, you ran into the kitchen, everyone wondering what happened.

"Fuck!"

"Language, Mother."

"Don't you 'language' me, young man!"

𓋼 You redecorated his room. He wasn't a fan of all the new colours, but he still appreciated the gesture. (There was a lot of glitter involved)

𓋼 After a while of you staying there, everyone definitely sees you as a mother figure (Alastor didn't appreciate this much either but he's willing to look past it for his friends)

𓋼 As small gifts, you made everyone items that resemble them and filled them with different colours of glitter and paper that remind you of them. Bonus: Behind the scenes! 1. Yuri's bad timing:

2. Vox and Val:

Oh my stars so I saw your post for Hazbin hotel requests can I PLEASE get a reader w Sir Pentious who is low-key jealous of his crush on cherry but he ends up getting w reader in the end?

I would love you forever 🙏

yurp, I gotchu. I love cherpentious with my entire heart but anything for y’all 🫡

edit : THERE IS NOW A PART TWO!

Somethin’ Stupid - Sir Pentious

words : 1.77k, slight warning for ep 6 stuffs

God, this fucking sucked. 

Cherri, who was - and you don’t mean to be direct, or self-loathing - downright fucking gorgeous, had been bribed to take you all out to a bar - well no, that wasn’t the exact instructions, but it was clear enough that Charlie didn’t expect much more from her. So here you were, slouched back on a vodka-stained couch in the corner of this bar, Husk lounging beside you while Nifty giggled and played with his fur, and your oh so beloved Sir Pentious across from you. 

You kicked back another shot of whatever Angel had brought to you, pretending to find whatever Husk had just said funny (you were far too caught up in the way Sir Pentious was goo goo eyeing a certain Cherri Bomb.) and Husk spoke up, eyebrows furrowed. 

“What’s up your ass today, kid?” He said flatly with a swig of his beer, raising one of his eyebrows as you finally snapped your attention back to him, trying to smile non-chalantly as you watched your beloved little drunken ball of insecurity slither towards Cherri again from the corner of your eye. “ ‘ts nuthin, Husk. Leave it.” You say with an annoyed sigh as you watch Pentious stumble over his words to an annoyed and unimpressed Cherri. 

“- I’M HAVING SSSSEX WITH EVERYONE HERE!” He turns around and yells, which has both Nifty, Angel, and Husk snap their heads around with wide eyes. He gives you a sad look and you try to give him a reassuring one. That is until he gets dragged into a separate room, and you inhale sharply through your teeth, wincing at the way he screams before the door is shut properly. Cherri doesn’t even look like she cares. 

“Ah.” Husk says flatly, catching your attention again. “Should’ve guessed after your fuckin’ ramble last night. ‘But Husk he doesn’t even know I’m here!’ and all those fuckin’ ‘I’ve been here longer than he has and he won’t even talk to me!‘s. he’s just nervous around you, like he is with Cherri. Fucker has some self-confidence issues. Just do it already.” He says, looking almost annoyed as you flushed deep and slapped your hand over his mouth, which he quickly swatted away. 

“Shh! Jesus fucking Christ Husk, not so loud! Fuck!” You grumble as Angel giggles with a hand over his mouth from the other end of the booth, before taking another small sip of his cocktail. “Not a secret, toots.” He says with his casually shit-eating grin, gesturing to a very drunk Nifty who was giggling now too, nodding her head. Great. 

“Sometimes, when I’m out killing the bugs that think they’re all sneaky, and gross and cool at night, I walk past your room and you’re listening to super bad romance music. Which scares the bugs away and makes them surrender their lives. Which like, it’s supposed to be a fight! You’re ruining all the fun… ” She adds the last part with a annoyed grumble, but despite her unbelievably drunken state, she’s still speaking fast, high-pitched, and with the exact same creepy undertones. “And I walk past that bad boys room and he’s all rehearsing romance poetry he wrote. It’s so bad! Ehehe!” 

She giggles out, eyes falling on a bug on the floor, hopping quickly off of Husker’s head and falling face first onto the floor, before quickly picking herself back up and running after it. “Shit.” Angel groans, putting his cocktail down quickly and shuffling out of the booth. “I’m gonna make sure she doesn’t end up with some creep.” He grits out through his teeth, before disappearing into the crowd with a sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose. “I’d better help him out.” Husk says with a sigh as well as he placed his beer bottle down carefully, pulling himself up with a groan.

He turns back to you for a second, just looking over his shoulder, before smiling. “You should start considering the possibility of Cherri being a distraction.” He says, humming softly before he adds one last thing. “Please do check in on the awkward fucker though, I don’t know what kind of shit he’s got stuffed in him or is stuffing at the fuckin moment.” Husk says with a sigh, disappearing right into the ground of flashing lights and bumping bodies right after Angel. 

You took the last courage swig of your drink and stood up, doing a little tipsy stretch as you got up, before dejectedly walking over to where a very, very exhausted Sir Pentious was sitting, hyperventilating and sweaty. You let out a soft sigh as you walked over, kneeling in front of him and taking his hands away from his face, holding them softly in your hands, looking up at him with furrowed brows and concern.

“Hey Pentious, that was a lot wasn’t it?” You say softly and he nods, refusing to make eye contact with you. He looks grossed out, ashamed, everything. You let out a soft sigh and rub small circles into the back of his palm with your thumb, doing your best to comfort him in the loud and overstimulating bar scene. 

“They were very kind - I jusssst, kept ssssssaying yessss. I don’t know why.” He says softly, and you nod, standing up and helping him up too. “Let’s get you back to the hotel, ‘Kay? You can take a nice hot shower and go to bed.” You reassure quietly and he finally looks up from the ground, smiling at you quickly before nodding, but as soon as Angel catches his gaze again, he’s out of your grips and right back to focusing on Cherri. You grimace softly as you watch him rush up to angel and ask where Cherri is. You watch as he groans in defeat as she goes into another room with a random guy. 

Some part of you feels happy, relieved of some jealousy. Another part of you feels bad. That was all he was doing the entire night, trying to get her attention. You shook it off and walked over to where everyone had re-grouped, giving them a tired wave, and getting one in return. You let out a small gasp as you saw the dried blood from Angels’ nose all the way down or his lip, his new black eye. 

“Oh dear, what happened?” You cooed softly, reaching up to wipe some of the blood of his face, and he softly moved away, shaking his head in a polite ‘thank you, but not right now’ way, and you nodded. “It was just a run-in with Val.” He says with a sigh, wiping another fresh stream of blood from his other nostril onto the back of his hand. “Let’s get going - I’ll tell you when we’re back at the hotel, Toots.” 

An unceremonious end to the night; but not exactly the end to yours. Even when you got back, debriefing everything that happened with Husk and Angel while Nifty snored on the couch and Pentious took a shower, even when you had finally wished them a good night and made your bed, sighing as you let your head fall to your pillow, you couldn’t stop thinking about what happened with him. What Husk had said. 

“You should start considering the possibility of Cherri being a distraction.”

You repeated it in your head for hours while you tried to think about anything else, scrolling on your phone aimlessly through Hellflix, InstaScam, Crime Video, even YouCrude - there was no one to e-stalk, no new shows for you to binge, not even something you wanted to re-watch. No new uploads from your faves - just an endless amount of scrolling. 

Until about 3 a.m.

That’s when you heard it - shaky, nearly silent sobs from Pentious’s room, small sniffles. You checked the time, sighed, threw a shitty pair of smiley-face PJ pants Charlie had made for you on, and slumped over to his bedroom, knocking softly on his door. It went dead silent, not a mouse, no the small clinking or squishing of Nifty’s bug-killing sewing needle. 

“Who issss it?” He said in a shaky, tired, raw voice, and your heart absolutely melted, hand against the doorknob as you spoke. “It’s me, Pentious. I just heard you - uh - being sad. I know I’m not your favourite, but can I come in?” You say with a soft sigh, running your fingers through your hair tiredly. It takes him a minute and a soft hiccup before he rasps out a small “pleasssse, y-yeah.” And you open the door.

What you find is absolutely heartbreaking. Your favourite little serpent, curled in on himself, hugging his tail to himself, eyes red with tears that fall softly down his face, hat resting on his old worn down dresser, angry and frustrated swipes if his claws leaving him on top of torn up bedsheets and pillows, and you nearly cry with him right then and there. This sweet man who has been nothing but a pure angel, stuck with all the sinners, including yourself, down here. 

You walked over to him, sitting beside him on his bed, hearing the old mattress frame squeak softly as you sat down, putting your hand on his, gently cooing him until he took big, deep breaths, gently and encouragingly rubbing circles back into the palm of his hand.

“Tell me, what’s up? I’m all -“ you start confidently, being cut off by an annoyed but desperate call from Pentious himself, pulling his hand away from yours and groaning into his palms, shaking his head. “that ISSSSS the problem! You’re the problem-  you’re so pretty I can’t think sssstraight around you! And now you think I hate you!” He cries out, looking at you with desperate eyes, like he wants you to say something - anything, really. But you really can’t.

You’re completely frozen, hand frozen in mid air when it was going to rest on his shoulder to comfort him, eyes wife, lips pierced together and all you can do is stare at him like some stupid idiot. You are at a mental battle of grabbing his face and kissing him until you can’t breathe or slowly talking it out. He sighs dejectedly.

“I want to get closssser to you. Wanted to be your friend, at leassst. But… then I’d go and ssssspoil it all by ssssaying ssssomething sssstupid like…” he stops for a second, swallowing thickly. “…I love you.” He looks up at you again, nearly desperate for an answer. You finally get some words out of your closed up throat -

“I love you.”

He lurked in the background, observing the lovely doe before him grazing on grass. She was a sweet thing that was none the wiser of his presence as he slowly snuck up towards her.

He did his best to muffle the static radiating off him. He was normally able to keep it under control, but lately, he'd been out of sorts. He could deny it as much as he wanted, but everyone knew what was happening. Further proof came in how he spotted the markings of a nearby tree as he got closer to the doe, leading him to release an audible growl, alerting the doe of his presence.

It was too late for her, however, since a large, dark tentacle pierced her middle, killing her in an instant. He pounced on the carcass and took a giant chunk of it by ripping it with his teeth. For the majority of the time, he isn't so primal with his food and takes his time with it. That day and the past few had him unreasonably angry at everyone and everything.

He was mad at Carmilla for speaking with him, Y/N for not giving him a chance to explain himself, and at himself for letting her go. At that moment, he was mad at what was carved on the tree, which now looked over him and made him feel more judged for his recent actions.

It didn't help that he still remembered how the markings got there...

Months ago...

"Husker, my good man! I need you to serve only the finest bottle of wine tonight, you hear?!"

Everyone was caught off guard by Alastor's presence, seeing him trudge down the hotel stairs more animated than usual.

"I want things to be 100% top-notch this evening for me and my gal,"

"Aww, Alastor," Charlie approached him at the bar with curiosity and intrigue. "Do you have a friend stopping by?"

"Suppose you can say that," Alastor replied, still practically beaming as his shadow was conjured up with a mirror so he could adjust his bowtie and spruce up his hair. "I'm inviting a special someone to the hotel. Someone I've grown accustomed to after spending time with her."

"Oh shit! Am I hearing things right?!" Angel was the next to approach Alastor after hearing this bombshell. "Big, scary Alastor found someone he's willing to get it on with?"

Alastor snapped his head away from his reflection to glare at Angel, but it was only a second or two before regaining his composure. "I wouldn't put it so crudely, but yes. I have been courting someone."

Charlie practically squealed upon hearing the news. "That's great! I'm so happy to hear such news! She must be quite special to get you so happy and want to make this a lovely night for you both."

"Special, or out of her fuckin' mind..." Husk grumbled from the bar so only Vaggie, who joined the rest of the group, could hear and silently nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, my dear. I do request one thing. My lady love is a very private person and would rather keep our relationship under wraps for the time being. I assume you all can refrain from any gossip that can be conjured from our romance."

"Of course! Your secret is safe-"

"Why exactly do we need to keep this a secret?" Vaggie interrupted her girlfriend to offer the usual suspicion she reserved just for him. "You're not trying to rope us into some shady business, are you?"

Alastor refrained from rolling his eyes. She was always so distrustful.

His relationship with Y/N might've started as a potential business and a possible deal, especially since it was so easy to capture her heart so her soul would've been no problem. The more time spent with her, however, it instead was slowly turning into something else - something dearer that left him so unsure. Instead of him getting something out of her, he always made sure she'd want for absolutely nothing, no soul required.

He wondered how he could've gone through life and death not knowing such an endearing, trusting darling. She was kind and gentle but didn't possess any of the bubbly naivete Charlie did. She was not only aware of where they were but also came from a family of assailants and weapons dealers who raised her to be alert and to fend for herself. He both feared and admired that along with how she accepted him for who he was and never judged the darkest parts of himself.

It was all so new and a bit alarming, whatever this was. He just knew he had to keep a good hold on it--

----

Alastor's thoughts were interrupted by a tapping at his door. No doubt Charlie chose to stop by to check on him after he charged back to the hotel a few days ago, after his fallout with Y/N.

It wasn't the princess' dulcet tones that implored him, however, after some insistent knocking. Instead, Alastor heard a more unwelcoming voice that under more proper circumstances he'd find entertaining.

"Alastor?" Vaggie continued to call out to him outside his room. "Come on, let me in. We need to talk."

[archangeldyke-all]

"you're fuckin' nasty" she whispers, impressed. you chuckle around her fingers. you've been using the same few moves on sevika since you met, and she's just as shocked and turned on each and every time.

i wrote this line for a smutty fic a few days ago and since then i've been compiling a short list of things you do in bed that drive sevika crazy. hope you enjoy :)

love, angel

men and minors dni

waking her up with head

you learned pretty early on in your relationship not to wake sevika up with head... unless it was a weekend.

the first time you tried was on a wednesday morning. you woke up to pee, but couldn't fall back asleep once you slid back in bed. with an hour to kill before your alarm was due to go off, you figured it was the perfect opportunity to show your girlfriend a little appreciation for the multiple orgasms she'd coaxed out of you last night.

with a bit of shuffling, you positioned yourself under the covers between sevika's naked legs. she's easy to maneuver when she's sleeping. a few kisses to her thighs and she was opening her legs for you with a deep snore. you giggled, and then got to work.

you started slow, not wanting to wake her right away. little kitten licks to her clit, kisses up and down her labia, gently tracing patterns in the soft pubic hair that decorates her inner thighs.

she quickly started getting wet, intermittent huffs escaping her lips, her legs twitching. you started to apply more pressure in your licks, twirling your tongue over her cilt before you sucked it in your mouth. she moaned and sleepily mumbled your name above you.

just as you began to ease your first finger into her, sevika seized up, gasping. the covers were thrown back, the sudden cool air making you shiver as you looked up at your panting sleep ruffled girlfriend.

"morni--" you weren't able to finish your sentence. sevika flipped you on your back and straddled your face, immediately sinking down onto your mouth.

she rode your face until she came, and then with a little begging on your end, rode it again.

you lost yourself between her thighs, high on the taste of her and her cum, a little lightheaded from the oxygen deprivation. the only thing you could see was her lovely bush and a sliver of her taught abs, the only thing you could feel was her hands in your hair. you couldn't hear anything with her thighs squeezing your ears so deliciously, so you must have missed it when your alarm sounded.

by the time she was done with you, she'd come four times and you were pussydrunk, completely unaware of the fact that sevika had smashed the alarm clock to bits with her fist when it sounded half an hour ago and interrupted her orgasm. she seemed to forget this fact too, as she began to kiss down your body eager to repay you.

by the time the two of you were done, it was half past noon.

you cursed her out as you rushed to get ready for work, already three hours late.

she simply shrugged, typing away on her phone.

if you hadn't been so late you would've been throwing your shoes at her instead of hastily shoving them on.

just as you were rushing out the door, you felt her tug on your arm.

sevika twirled you around to face her, holding her phone up beside her.

"texted your boss. told him you were sick. he said 'no worries, tell her get better. thumbs up emoji.'" she read off her phone.

"and i just told silco something came up." she said with a cheeky smirk as she tossed her phone behind her aimlessly.

"i really can't believe i tolerate you." you grumbled as she began to tug you back to the bedroom, her fingers unbuttoning your work shirt.

"what'd you expect to happen when you wake me up with a surprise like that?" she asked as she shoved you back in bed.

2. tucking a pair of your panties into her pockets

one time, the two of you were attending some boring ass fundraiser for a business friend of silco's. you'd had a long day at work but insisted you'd come anyways, despite sevika assuring you you didn't have to. you knew how much she hated these things and didn't want her to have to suffer alone.

in an attempt to keep you awake, sevika'd been teasing you all night, gently trailing her fingers higher and higher on your thigh beneath the tablecloth.

every ten minutes, she'd lean over to whisper something dirty in your ear. for the first hour or so, you were able to keep it together, but after a few too many glasses of champagne, you were so wet you were sure you were going to slide out of your seat.

at some point she had to leave the table to make small talk. she'd huffed an annoyed sigh and pressed a kiss to your head.

"i'll be back soon. then i'm getting us the fuck out of here." she whispered, gently tucking her blazer over your shoulders.

you took the opportunity to run to the bathroom. you fussed with your hair in the mirror for a minute then splashed your face with cold water in an attempt to soothe the lust burning inside you. with a sigh you entered a stall, hiking your dress up and pulling your panties down to pee.

you were soaked. it was kind of pathetic.

just as you were finishing up, you were struck by a moment of genius. you giggled as you kicked off your panties, shoving them in the inner pocket of sevika's blazer.

you wiped and flushed, washed your hands and fluffed your hair and returned to chit chat with familiar faces as you waited for sevika to finish.

the night went on for hours. by the time the two of you were leaving you were practically asleep in sevika's arms.

she chuckled as you nuzzled into her chest, leaning against a light post waiting for your taxi.

"need a smoke." she grumbled. you pulled away as she patted her pockets, looking for her cigarette tin.

you had completely forgotten about the little surprise you'd hidden away in her blazer until sevika froze, her eyes snapping to yours.

"whoops." you giggled. "forgot i put those there."

you were saved from being fucked against the lamppost by the arrival of the cab sevika had called, but the second you got home she was tearing your dress off and shoving your panties in your mouth.

needless to say, sevika managed to keep you awake much later than you anticipated that night.

3. helping her put her strap on

it's always a little awkward when the two of you have to pause for sevika to shimmy into her harness and get it all buckled up.

it's one of your favorite parts of sex, actually.

the silly giggles that ring out as she trips over her feet make your heart melt, and watching the way she sticks her tongue out as she tries to buckle the tricky buckles always makes you smile.

but if you really want to rev her up, you kneel before her to gently guide her feet through the loops, kissing the buckles after you adjust them to hug her snugly.

each time you do she shudders, a full bodied thing that she can't control.

she fucks you like an animal every time you use this move, growling and clawing at you, manhandling you and snarling anytime you try to move from where she's arranged you. it's hot as fuck, but you always have trouble walking the next day.

4. biting her

nips and hickeys always get sevika going, but if you bite her she'll cum. instantaneously. she can't help it.

if you've been making out, you can lean down and bite her shoulder and she'll cum, cursing you and shaking beneath you.

if she's fucking you from behind and has her hand over your mouth, you can sink your teeth in and feel her thrusts stutter as she chokes out a 'fuck! 'm cumming!'

you try to use your power sparingly, but sometimes you can't help yourself.

once the two of you were in a little play scuffle, fighting over the remote for the television. you were determined to watch something besides the boring ass nano-biology docu-series sevika'd been obsessed with. she had you in a headlock by her hip, giving you a noogie as she cackled. you huffed and turned your head to bite her hip... and then it was your turn to laugh as she gasped and shook, cumming in her pants in the middle of the living room.

5. telling her you love her

it sounds corny, and sevika would rather die than admit it, but she falls apart every time you tell her you love her in bed.

she could have a plan to tease and edge you all night long, but the second those three words leave your lips she'd be sighing a sweet little sigh and easing into you, kissing your pout away.

on one particularly memorable occasion, you had tied sevika's hands to the bed frame to ride her, and had moaned out a 'love you' as you came. a loud ripping noise echoed through the room as sevika broke through her bonds to pull you closer to her.

you guys don't fight enough to have angry sex, but sometimes one of you will need it a little rougher and harder than usual. it's invigorating to fuck like you hate each other, but it never lasts because you can never help yourself from choking out those three words. when you do, sevika halts her brutal pace, her expression melting from a look of intense concentration into an affectionate smile. she admires you for a moment before she begins again at a much slower pace, pressing her whole body against yours, kissing whatever part of you she can reach, repeating the words back to you. "love you too baby," she whispers reverently. "so fuckin' much."

“Devil’s Advocate” by The Neighbourhood

“Talk” by Hozier

You, Joel, and Ellie have been in Jackson for the past few months. The three of you have become immersed in community life. Joel, has been reluctant upon getting comfortable in this new domestic life. He’s used to being on edge constantly. Ellie is content working in the stables alongside Dina, while you and Joel patrol on horseback outside of town.

He doesn’t want to give up his natural protective nature just yet. He finds comfort in constantly having his gun by his side, and you of course. At dawn, the two of your ride out to your usual lookout point. It’s the dead of winter and you’re both heavily wrapped in many layers. The cold still manages to bite through to your skin. The horses don’t seem to mind the chill, or whipping icy wind. Their thick winter coats keep them warm, and you find yourself feeling jealous of their natural protection from the elements, just for a moment.

You both dismount from your horses and tie their reins to a nearby tree. Before you can grab your rifle from your pack, Joel is reaching for it. His shoulder brushing against yours and he feels significantly warmer than you.

“We’ll stick here for a bit. It was quiet the last time. Clickers must’ve moved on.” He held your rifle out to you, stealing a quick kiss.

“Sure as hell hope they have. It’s fuckin’ brutal out here. Freezin my tits off.” You were caught off guard when he had kissed you and you couldn’t help but grab him by the collar of his thick jacket and pull him back in for one more.

He grasped your waist and pulled you flushed against his chest. “This is how we get killed, darlin.’” He gruffly spoke against your lips, pulling away before things could get too heated.

You let out a low huff when you could no longer feel his radiating warmth against you. “Yeah well, that isn’t gonna happen, remember? You got me, and I got you.” You slung the strap of your rifle over your shoulder then.

He watched you closely then while he adjusted the strap of his own rifle. “Yea honey, you got me, I got you.” He gestured to the side, signaling you to walk in front of him, like the true Texas gentleman that he was.

As the two of you crept through the thick snow, rifles at the ready, doing your best to be as quiet as possible. There was always the possibility that the clickers hadn’t moved on like you both assumed. Better to be safe than sorry.

The surrounding trees grew thicker the further you walked. Suddenly, Joel was at your side, rifle aimed when he could hear the eerie sound of nearby clickers. A chill skated down your spine, it wasn’t from the cold of winter this time.

click click click

Joel turned his head towards you, his eyes locking on yours, holding your gaze as he brought his finger up to his lips.

The distinguishable low clicks were getting closer, and closer. You and Joel were both holding your breath as 3 clickers emerged from the snowy tree-line. Your finger was already hovering over the trigger. A damn branch snapping from the overloading weight of snow on it is what gave you two away.

It happened so fast, the clickers charged. Your rifle got jammed as one of the clickers ran at you, screeching. You were tackled through the snow, tumbling down the hill leaving Joel no other option but to deal with the other two clickers.

It felt like the wind had been knocked from you when your body finally landed at the end of the hill. You had no time to recover as the clicker was thrown ontop of you, you used your rifle as a shield, but when it was knocked out of your grasp and thrown to the side, you definitely panicked for a moment. You let out a scream filled with rage as you fought. Finally getting a grasp of your knife, you drove the blade into the deep cavern of the clickers neck. It let out a screech as thick, hot blood spurted through the gaping wound, splattering against your face. You pushed the once living creature off of your body, listening to it thump into the snow.

You were breathing heavily, wiping at your face as you sat up. The snow surrounding you was stained dark maroon. A stark contrast against the pure white fluff. Before you could even stand, you heard Joel yelling your name as he raced down the hill. He nearly stumbled a few times in his fury but when he reached the bottom, he was grasping the lapels of your jacket, yanking you upwards. His eyes were wide, frantic.

“Joel—”

“What the fuck was that?! Why didn’t you shoot?!” He had cut you off then as he started furiously checking for any bite marks. Pawing at your coat, pants, grabbing your face in his hands as he turned your head anxiously. His eyes were scanning your neck frantically.

“Joel! I’m not fuckin’ bit! My gun locked, I swear!”

He was holding your coat tightly in his hands again, he was furious. His brows were furrowed and his back was tense. “Your gun fuckin’ locked?! You gotta be fuckin’ kiddin’ me.”

Before you were even allowed to speak, Joel was yanking you up from the snow and into his arms. Holding you tightly to his chest. “You fuckin check your gun next time. Alright? You fuckin check it! Do you hear me?! For fuck sakes honey. Fuck!” His tone was harsh against your ear. Laced with the fear of the possibility of losing you.

You wrapped your arms around his broad covered shoulders as he hugged you tightly. He was pissed, he was radiating in anger. You could feel it through his damn thick coat.

“Joel, I’m sorry! I’ll check my gun next time. Okay? I swear I will!”

He muttered something under his breath as he helped you stand to your feet. His jaw was clenched tightly as he looked at you. Shaking his head.

“Grab your gun and then let’s go. I ain’t gonna ask twice. Grab it.”

When you hesitated he raised an eyebrow in your direction.

“Did ya hear me, darlin’? I said, move. NOW.”

You quickly reached for your rifle that was tossed into the snow by the clicker and slung it over your shoulder. As you walked past Joel, you could feel his eyes burning holes into the side of your skull.

Yeah, he was furious alright.

The walk back to the horses was a dead silent one. You were afraid to speak at all. He untied the reins of your horse from the tree and tossed them in your direction as you scrambled to catch them.

“Get on.” He grumbled. Grabbing the reins from his own horse before he placed the toe of his boot into the stirrup and hoisted himself back up into the saddle. You followed suit shortly after.

The tension between you two was palpable as you rode back into town. A knife couldn’t even cut through it this time. Someone was gonna have to take a fuckin chainsaw to it and even then, it wouldn’t have been enough.

Once you arrived at the stables, you dismounted from your horse. Quickly untacking and setting the saddle on the rack. Ellie had seen you two come in and then she saw the blood on your face, Joel’s pissed off expression and gruff nature. She knew something had happened.

“Are you..good? What the hell happened out there?”

You looked over at her, imagining how you must have looked in that moment. “I'm good, kiddo. Just ran into a few clickers.” You could hear Joel scoff alongside his horse.

“I thought they were—”

“Me too. It’s alright. I’m good, Ellie. Don’t worry, okay?” You gave her shoulder a light squeeze.

Ellie looked between you and Joel before she sighed. “Yeah, okay.” she mumbled.

Before you could comfort the girl further, you felt Joel’s firm grasp on your forearm as he pulled you out of the stables. He didn’t let you go as you headed back to your home. You struggled to keep up with his footsteps and you looked away when he gave you a warning look.

Once inside, he slammed the door shut and locked it. Hanging his rifle along the hook on the wall and yanked yours from your shoulder.

You watched as he un-jammed it with ease. Hanging it alongside his.

“Joel, I’m sorry I know I should have been careful and checked it before—”

“Save it. I don’t wanna fuckin’ hear it right now. You could have fuckin’ died out there. Fuckin’ stupid. That was completely preventable.”

His words and tone he delivered them in sliced through you like knives.

You could hear his heavy breathing from where you were standing. You saw his knuckles flex, before clenching into tight fists.

“Get over here.” He gruffly demanded.

Your feet were moving quicker than your brain could process it. You could feel your blood pounding in your ears as you stood before him.

He grabbed your face in his calloused palms, wiping fiercely at the dry blood on your face. His eyes searching yours. His pupils were dark in contrast to how gently he was handling you. You wondered for a moment how long that would last. His eyes flickering to your lips.

“You can kiss me.” You spoke through the stagnant cold air. He didn’t need your consent, you were fully ready to give it to him.

“I know I can.” He rasped out, his tone low, almost sounding like a growl.

He kissed you hard, backing you into a nearby wall with a harsh thud. He had completely encaged you against the wall as his lips kissed you feverishly. You could taste his hot breath on your tongue. His scent swirling around you, intoxicating your mind and body.

You went to move your arms up around his neck but he stopped you, grabbing your wrists in his clutch firmly, slamming them against the wall on either side of your head.

“No.” He muttered into your lips before he harshly bit down on your lower lip, drawing blood, tasting copper on his tongue as he released your plush lip from his teeth.

“Joel—”

“No. You’re gonna be a good girl. You got it? Don’t test me, Sugar. I ain’t in the mood.”

You meekly nodded and turned your head to the side slightly, taking your lower lip between your teeth as he attacked the bare skin of your neck with his lips and teeth, nipping, sucking, biting at the sensitive skin. You were definitely gonna need to borrow some makeup from Maria after this. That is, if Joel would allow you. He liked marking you up like this. Letting everyone know that you were his.

“The hell do you got in here, huh?” His words tore you away from your thoughts then as he was pawing at your coat. The sound of carbon steel clanking on the hardwood could be heard as Joel was finding your secret stash of weapons.

When you didn’t respond to his initial question, he asked again. Firmly this time.

“Where the hell did you find all these, huh?” He tore your jacket down your arms then, tossing it down to the floor with a thud.

“Around..” you spoke above a whisper as his hands roamed over your covered skin, on a mission to find more of your concealed weapons. He was in slight disbelief that you were this armed.

“Around, huh? That’s pretty fuckin’ vague, sweetheart.”

“Can never be too careful.”

He had reached behind you feeling through the thick layers that you were still wearing, and when he grasped the handle of a pistol, sticking out of your jeans, he chuckled.

“How the hell was it even comfortable to ride with that back there?” He pulled the pistol out then bringing it between you two before he tossed it down onto your coat.

“Maybe I’ve just gotten used to the pain. It’s not that bad.” You boldly spoke.

He raised a brow, grasping your hips firmly in his hands, he felt something hard sticking out between the fabric of your jeans.

“You’re jokin’. There’s more?” He reached between the gap of the tight fabric. Pulling out two sheathed knives on either side of your hips.

“Those were a bitch to fit in there. Just so you know.”

He tossed them down onto your coat.

“How many knives do you really need, honey?” He mused.

“Enough for you to keep finding them.” You spoke with zero hesitation.

He grabbed a handful of your ass then, giving it a good squeeze through the denim fabric. He leaned in, his lips brushing against the shell of your ear, sinfully. “Am I gonna find anythin’ back here darlin’?”

You immediately lurched forward, not expecting him to grab you like that but you definitely wanted more.

“No.” You squeaked out. “Nothin’ hiding back there, cowboy.”

He chuckled lowly. The deep, smooth sound snaked down your neck, wrapping you in a delicious embrace before it settled between your thighs. Damn, you were fucked.

“Mmm. Alright, I believe ya, honey.”

He released your ass from his firm grip before his hands moved to the hem of your 2nd layer of clothing. A thick wool sweater. He wasted no time yanking the fabric over your arms and head. Discarding it to the floor beside his worn boots.

“There’s still more. Believe it or not.”

He paused then and looked at you trying to figure out if you were bullshitting him or not. You weren’t and it was quite obvious you both were getting enjoyment out of this little game. “You gotta be shitting’ me. Ain’t no way there’s more.”

“Oh, there is. You just aren’t looking hard enough.”

He grumbled under his breath at your response. It was frustrating for him. He just wanted to get to your skin already. He was absolutely craving it. The next layer irritated him even more. Course you just had to be wearing a sweater with fucking buttons.

“Seriously? I hate these fuckin’ things. Who the hell needs all these buttons? What is the point?” He spoke while his fingers started to undo the top buttons but when they wouldn’t immediately budge he growled under his breath and ripped the rest off.

You had let out an annoyed sound of protest as the buttons fell to the floor, bouncing and rolling off in different directions.

“Really, Joel? Was that necessary?”

He wasn’t even paying attention to your words. He was completely zoned in on the knife strapped between your breasts. Secured with a makeshift fabric holster.

“Sorry, not sorry Sugar. It had to be done. Now this? This is absolutely fuckin sinful of you. You do this just for me?”

You couldn’t help but smirk then. The look of disbelief on his hardened face absolutely egged you on.

“Oh, that?” You innocently spoke. “I completely forgot that was there. Whoopsie.”

His hand was at the base of your throat then. His eyes narrowed. His grip was firm, yet still gentle in his own way, his thumb was just barely applying pressure to your windpipe.

“You. My dear, are a filthy fuckin’ liar.” He spat the last part out.

You didn’t even flinch.

“So what if I am? You love it.”

“Yeah? You’re right, I do. I love it.” He admitted.

You watched with hooded eyes as he yanked the knife free from its confines between your breasts. He examined it closely before he used the tip of the blade to expertly cut through the fabric.

“No wonder you said you were freezin’ your tits out there. Ain’t got nothin’ coverin’ ‘em. Bet your pretty little nipples were as hard as fuckin’ rocks, eh?”

He couldn’t help but lightly drag the tip of the blade against the swell of your breast. He was extremely careful to not accidentally cut you as he dragged it against your peeked bud. The cool sensation from the steel had you nearly mewling.

“Now, Sugar. I’m only gonna ask ya this one time. You better give me the right answer too. No lyin’. You hiding anything else? If you are, I’m gonna find every last one of ‘em. I can promise you that.”

You shook your head, taking your lip between your teeth once more. This game was addictive. “No. I swear. That’s it. There’s no more Joel. Can you please fuckin’ touch me already? This is torture.” You nearly begged him.

“No? Are you absolutely sure? Cause if I find any more..” He trailed off. Dragging the tip of the blade down your navel before he slowly dropped to his knees before you. He used his free hand to feel up and down your thighs. Squeezing here and there as he looked up at your face to see if you were lying to him or not.

“There’s nothing. I swear on my life.”

“That’s a pretty risky thing to swear upon, honey.”

Once he reached your calves, he wasted no time tugging the bottom of your jeans from where they were tucked into your boots. There he found 2 smaller daggers strapped around your thick socks. He pulled both of them out and tossed them on your coat before he moved to the other boot and found 2 more in the same position.

“Well, I think that answers my question. Don’tcha think? I’m impressed, honey. You lied though. Even when I gave you the chance to fess up.” He pressed a kiss to your covered knee as he slowly stood back up.

“Oh no, you caught me! How did those even get there? What are you—” your words were abruptly cut off when he had cupped you firmly through your jeans. He could only imagine how wet you already were just from his teasing alone.

“You’re skatin’ on some mighty thin ice, sweetheart. But ya know what? I’m feeling a tad generous.”He moved his thumb over the button of your jeans and popped it open before he dragged the zipper down slowly. “I’m gonna reward ya. Just this once, for the fact you somehow managed to store that many weapons under your clothes. You’re filthy. I just want you to know that.”

“I know I am. You bring it out of me.”

The hand that was still holding your knife moved upwards then. In one swift moment, he had embedded the blade into the thin wood on the wall, right next to your head before he was swiftly yanking your jeans down over your hips. The rough denim scraped at your thighs from the quick movement.

“I know I have, honey. I’ve taught you well. Done me so fuckin’ proud.” His fingers had dipped in between your panties, feeling how wet you were for him already as he teased your slick folds. Slowly dragging his fingers against your clit in a circular motion.

You couldn’t help but let a small moan slip out. You were absolutely aching for his touch.

“Joel, you gotta give me more than that. Please, baby.”

“You want me that bad, huh honey? You gonna beg for it? Gonna beg for me? C’mon pretty girl, let’s hear you say it.” He sped his fingers up slightly, applying a bit of pressure before he dipped them down, teasing your entrance before he slipped them in. Immediately curling them against the warm spongy texture of your walls. His other hand wrapped around your waist, his fingers splayed against your lower back as he pulled you in so you were firmly flushed against his chest. His lips barely brushed yours as he teased you with a half kiss. Pulling away at the slightest when you tried to properly kiss him.

“Please, goddammit. I’m not gonna last long you mother fucker. Give me your fuckin’ cock Joel or I swear to god—”

“Mmm. There she is. There’s my pretty girl. You want my cock? Huh baby? You want me to fuck you against this wall? You want me to be so fuckin’ deep inside of ya, you can feel me in your guts? I’ll give it to ya honey. You just say the word.”

You were nearly on the edge from how slow he was pumping his fingers inside of you. You could feel just how much you were clenching around him and it was clear he wanted to drag this out.

“Yeah. Give me your absolute fuckin’ worst Miller. Fuck me against this goddamn wall.” You hissed out.

“Oh, alright, Sugar. If you insist.” He kissed you finally. His lips entirely capturing yours in a sloppy kiss. His fingers had slowly slipped out of you. They were coated in your arousal and he wasted no time popping the button off of his own jeans and dragged the zipper down. He didn’t even bother pushing his jeans down. He wanted you to feel the bite of his denim on your thighs. He pulled his cock free from the confines of his boxers hissing under his breath as he rubbed his thumb over his tip that was already leaking with pre-cum.

You kissed him back immediately. wrapping your arms around his neck as you pulled him in as physically close as possible. You threaded your fingers through his salt and pepper hair and gave it a firm tug.

He gave himself a couple good tugs as mumbled against your lips. “Hike your leg up over my thigh, sweetheart. I gotcha.”

You wasted no time to do just that as you brought your thigh around his hip. Driving the heel of your boot firmly into the back pocket of his jeans. While he used his freehand to grab a hold of your thigh. Digging the pads of his fingers into your skin as he held you up with ease. Your other leg stayed firmly planted on the ground for support.

He dragged his tip along your folds for a moment as he continued to kiss you deeply. Your teeth were clashing together from how hard you were kissing when he had finally slipped inside of your warmth. He stuttered out your name as he brought his other hand against the wall. Grasping the hilt of the blade that was still embedded next to your head.

“Fuckin’ hell.” You both moaned out in sync. He started with a delicious slow roll of his hips into yours. You could feel the harsh denim of his jeans rubbing into your thighs as he rolled his hips. It was a delicious combination.

“Takin’ me so well already honey. You want more?” He groaned out.

You responded by biting down on his lower lip hard letting your nails scrape against his scalp as you hissed out. “Fuck me already.”

He gave one harsh thrust then, causing your head to knock back against the wall slightly. He did it again, and again before he found a good rhythm, jutting his hips into yours. Drinking in each one of your moans that slipped past your pretty lips as he pounded into you mercilessly.

You both heard the sound of fabric ripping. It was your jeans of course. The friction of his movement and tightness of your thigh wrapped around his waist was enough to split the already worn fibers. You could care fucking less.

“That’s it baby. Doin’ so well for me, honey. Gripping me so well with this pretty little pussy. Keep doin that, okay? Don’t fuckin stop.” He gritted out as he drove himself deeper inside of you. He was all the way at the hilt now and he was gripping the handle of the blade embedded in the wall so hard, his knuckles were turning stark white.

You were a mess beneath him, crying out his name as your lips fell from his, breaking the kiss. “F-fuck Joel! Keep going baby, I’m close please don’t stop, please!”

He let out a low grunt in response and buried his face against your neck, biting down on your already broken skin. He swore he could taste blood as he soothed the skin with his hot tongue. “Keep fuckin’ screamin’ my name, darlin’. Want the neighbors to fuckin’ hear that you’re mine.” He mumbled against your skin.

Your thighs were already quivering as you reached down between your connected bodies. rubbing your already sensitive clit between your fingers.

“That’s it, honey. Get yourself off on me. You’re so fuckin’ filthy. Gonna cum all over me? Gonna coat my cock? C’mon baby I wanna feel ya!”

His thrusts were beginning to get sloppy as he got closer to his own release. He had released the blade from his grip on the wall only to secure his hand around your throat. His lips had moved from the skin on your neck to nipping at your jaw and chin and finally kissing you once more.

“Cum for me, Joel. Fuckin’ fill me up, honey.”

His hips gave out as he moaned out your name like a fucking chant. Just as you came undone around him. You were both a hot, sticky mess by the time your orgasm passed. His forehead was slick with sweat as it rested against yours. His back muscles were quivering as he was absolutely spent.

Even as he went soft inside of you, feeling yours and his cum dripping down your thighs, he stayed buried inside of you. While your fingers played with his sweaty hair gently. You couldn’t help but let out a giggle. You were absolutely high off sex.

“Hey, we should like..do this more often. I would absolutely love it if you rammed me up against a wall every now and then. Maybe bend me over a counter next time?”

He chuckled. Slowly and gently bringing your leg down from around his hip as he finally slipped out.

“Yeah? Sure honey, I’d love to bend ya over a counter. I’ve got a few ideas myself. Oh and, sorry about your jeans.” He gave you an apologetic, sweet kiss then.

“Oh, the jeans? Don’t worry about it Joel. They were on their last life anyway. I’d love to hear your ideas. Can only imagine what you come up with in that filthy head of yours.” You kissed him back sweetly and watched as he tucked himself back into his boxers and fixed his jeans.

“Oh, they’re filthy alright. You hang tight, kay sugar? Gonna get ya some fresh clothes and clean you up.” He left the entryway then headed upstairs, where he grabbed you a fresh pair of panties, one of his shirts and a towel. Returning to you in a matter of minutes. He yanked the blade from the wall before he got down on his knees and carefully cut what was left of the remaining fabric of your jeans, and tossed the shreds of fabric to the side before he unlaced your boots and set them down as well.

Aftercare, as you learned, was extremely important to Joel. Just as much as consent was equally important to him. You almost enjoyed this intimacy more than the actual sex. You watched as he gently wiped between your thighs. Cleaning you of your cum and his when he noticed the redness on your skin from where the fabric from his jeans was chafing against you.

“Does it hurt? I’m sorry about that doll. Ellie, or Maria probably have some lotion somewhere.”

“Joel, I’m good. It kinda stings but it’s not bad. I liked it. Enjoyed it, honestly.”

He slowly rose back to his feet then and helped you into the fresh pair of panties and his shirt before he scooped you into his arms bridal style and carried you into the living room, setting you down on the couch. “Alright pretty, you just get comfy, okay? Gonna start us a fire.”

You watched as your man was bent over the fireplace, adding logs expertly before he lit a match and tossed it in. He grabbed you a glass of water, food, which was abundant here, and a little something extra; Weed. Thank god for Ellie and Dina.

He plopped down on the couch beside you then, handing you the glass of water, stealing another kiss before he rid himself of his boots and jeans and the rest of his layers. He was just now in his boxers, bare chest and joint between his plush lips as he lit it.

Your mouth literally watered at the sight of him. You were mesmerized, infatuated.

“Take a picture, it’ll last longer.” He chuckled as he took a long drag, the tip of the joint turning bright red as he inhaled, blowing the smoke up towards the ceiling. He reached over, handing it off to you with his fingertips brushing yours.

You found your foot resting against his bare upper thigh as you took a long drag. “Where the hell did you get this, huh?” You blew the smoke out to the side before taking another hit.

“Dina and Ellie. Don’t tell ‘em though. I definitely did not steal from their stash.” He wrapped his hand around your calf gently, rubbing his thumb against your warm skin.

“You’re a bad man, Joel Miller.” You handed him the joint once more, a small grin gracing your features.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. You love it though.” He mused.

“I do. There’s no denying that.”

He took another long drag, closing his eyes as he let the drug relax him. “Say, you think you can show me how the hell you managed to fit that many knives under your clothes? Cause..it really just fuckin’ kept goin. ‘You secretly Houdini or somethin?”

You laughed and took a long sip of your water. You were parched and he wasn’t helping.

“I’m sorry, honey. A lady can never reveal her deepest secrets.”

He squeezed your calf gently while he held the joint against his lips as he inhaled once more.

“Fair enough. I’ll figure it out on my own.”

“I’m sure you will, cowboy.”

Ellie had later found that one of her perfectly rolled joints was missing. She had a sneaking suspicion that it was either you, or Joel. Probably Joel though. Definitely Joel.

[ playing dangerous ]

a/n: this is my first ever fic so pls be kind!! also not proofread so any mistakes i apologise.

— warnings : dark fic (18+), joel isn’t what you think in this, domestic abuse! (not joel), drugging, dom!joel, big!joel/small!reader, age gap (not mentioned but it’s there, around 26 years), kidnap if you squint ig. + plus tommy.

“Joel it’s all kickin’ off next door man”

Tommy’s voice filled his ears through the phone as he sighed… not again… surely.

“What this time?”

“It’s that dude, I ain’t gotta clue what his problem is but she’s gettin’ the brunt of it yet again” Tommy’s eyes scanned through the blinds that were peeled apart by his fingers, peering into your window trying to get a good visual of what was going on.

This had been going on for the past few months, your boyfriend Rick had a bad gambling addiction… and based on his results you’d either get pounded brutally into the bed as his victory celebration, despite your cries. Or… like today; a hissy fit which every time without fail, resulted in bruises and tears, as his anger at his loss seemed to be all your fault.

This time; tommy could hear the heavy thuds of furniture being thrown across rooms, and twinkles of glass that smashed beneath your feet. He could hear the soft whimpers and sobs that left your body as Rick practically screamed at you.

“it’s all your fault you fuckin’ bitch, you make me do this”

“Joel what do i do, man? I can’t jus’ leave er’”

“Stay where you are, I’m comin’ home”

Joel hung up the phone and got into his pick-up truck and began the short drive home; he knew you were a sweetheart, a soft innocent angel who wouldn’t hurt a fly. You always smiled at him and even once baked him cookies, which he admired for a good few days before throwing his diet out the window, consuming the gooey chocolate chip delights you made. He couldn’t understand why you stayed, why you let Rick treat you the way he did. He also couldn’t understand how Rick could treat you such a way.

Maybe you were secretly an awful person, he thought… or hoped. Because the thought of someone as kind and caring as you receiving the exact opposite just because of the fact that you won’t fight back killed him inside. He refused to admit the feeling of jealousy that ached inside of him; but he often thought of what it’d be like to hold you at night, to be the man to make you smile, to wipe away your tears instead of being the dick that caused them.

His anger grew more and more as he approached his driveway, speeding up a bit as he swerved in and pulled to a halt, the tires screeching against the concrete. He threw open his door and made the short walk to your front porch, knuckles thumping against the wood as he waited for a response… that was when he realised… silence.

He banged again and called your name this time, willing you for a response. You could’ve heard a pin drop, and it was scaring him.

He was just about to kick the door down when he heard the lock of the door flick, and watched as it slowly peeled open, too slow.

“Joel?” your cracking voice called his name and he could’ve burst into tears himself.

“Sweetheart, ya’ alright?” he pushed open the door a little more to get a view of your face, and god he wished he hadn’t.

“Honey” He sighed, eyeing the swelling bruise that imprinted itself onto your cheek, the redness of your face from crying just intensifying it.

“Joel, please just go” you kept yourself hidden, yes, Rick was gone. He walked out as soon as he was finished releasing his stress, with the words “i’ll be back later” but you still felt the quivers of fear make their way through your body.

“I can’t do that, you know i can’t” His hands were placed on his hips as he scanned everywhere he could for more marks, and all he could see was bruises, old and new, littered across your arms. Even the softness of your feet covered in dried blood from stepping on the glass.

When that caught his eye he knew you needed attention.

“Right, you’re comin’ over so i can get ya cleaned up” He reached for your hand but you pulled back abruptly.

“I can’t, Joel. I can’t leave”

“Then i’ll carry you”

“You don’t get it!” you raised your voice a little louder to get the message across.

“You’re right, I don’t get it. But I ain’t gonna leave you alone right now so you either move, or I move ya myself”

You sighed, knowing he wasn’t gonna let up, so you made the brave decision to step outside… wincing as your feet made contact with the hard stone below you. Joel was there right away, scooping you up into his arms and hoisting you on one side of his hip as his other hand closed your front door. He eyed you for a moment, making sure he wasn’t hurting you before making his way over to his house.

All the fear coursing through your veins dulled as you felt joel’s touch, he was much bigger than you which at the start intimidated you, but now all you wanted to do was crawl into his embrace and let him take care of your problems.

Joel was one of your favourite people; when you moved in you two immediately hit it off, becoming very quick friends. From what you heard from Tommy, Joel wasn’t the type of person to be overly nice to everyone he meets, but you were different. He would always help you out when you had issues with the plumbing or gas, as Rick was never interested in doing any of that. He would bring over leftovers for you as he knew you struggled to eat after a particularly bad fight. Basically anytime Rick wasn’t there, Joel was. Insisting on taking care of you when things went wrong. Helping you get out of bed, and brushing your hair for you on the worst days.

Tommy was already waiting with the front door open, allowing Joel inside as he carried you through the threshold.

“She alright?” Tommy asked and Joel nodded slightly, taking you through to the kitchen and perching you up on the counter, picking up your leg and inspecting your foot for the first time.

“You gotta’ start wearing shoes, sweetheart”

You gave a slightly amused breath at his words but he wasn’t laughing in the slightest. He was angry.

Angry at me? you thought

He moved to one of the cupboards, pulling out a first aid kit and making his way back to you, pulling a stool over and sitting in front of your legs, pulling your feet into his lap and getting to work with the antiseptic.

“ouch!” you winced as the stinging made its way through your body.

“I know babygirl, m’sorry. i’ll just be a little minute more and then you’re done, m’kay?”

That was another thing that was unusual with Joel, his affection towards you. It was clear that he cared about your feelings, maybe it was just because he knew that you didn’t get much at home… or maybe… just maybe…

“All done, sweet girl” you were pulled from your thoughts as he placed the bloodied cotton pads onto the counter beside you and you winced internally at how much blood there actually was. He picked up a thin bandage and began to wrap each of your feet. making sure the cuts were covered.

“Thank you” you spoke quietly, even when he was finished he still held your feet in his lap, the warmness and softness of his jeans bringing you comfort. It made you yawn and made your limbs stretch slightly.

“You tired?” he asked. You shook your head, you knew he’d have you sleep here if you asked but you didn’t want an excuse to stay any longer, on the off chance that Rick was already on his way home.

“I better get going” Joel’s hands held onto your hips as you slid down off the counter, your feet feeling way better touching the floor than before.

“She ain’t leavin’” Tommy’s voice interrupted the both of you, you turned to face the younger brother who was standing in the door way, essentially blocking your exit.

“I-I have to”

“No frickin’ way!” Tommy protested, raising his voice a bit.

“Tommy” Joel warned.

“No, absolutely not! You think we’re gonna let you go back there after everything that sick son of a bitch has done? You’re fuckin’ crazy”

“You don’t understand” You spoke softly, a whimper caught in the back of your throat.

“No you don’t understand! You wanna fuckin’ die huh? You got some sorta death wish?” Tommy was stepping closer to you, not with the intention of intimidating you but out of pure frustration with you.

“Tommy! Back the fuck off” Joel stepped forward now too, both brothers exchanging looks that told you this had been more than a one time conversation. You couldn’t help the tears that burned your eyes, begging to be released, your lip wobbling with every breath.

Tommy was an incredible friend to you, but he was the harsher one out of the two brothers when it came down to you. Joel was better at hiding his true feelings but Tommy, wouldn’t let you hear the end of it.

“What if one day we ain’t there huh? what’s she gonna do? who’s she gonna run to? If she ain’t already dead by that point” his words were harsh and brought all your emotions to light.

“Stop it! please!” you burst into tears, chest tightening as your sobs began to wrack your body.

Joel was immediately at your side pulling you into his embrace tightly and running his hand through your hair, whispering sweet words.

“M’sorry, honey. But you ain’t leaving tonight and that’s final” Tommy spoke before disappearing into the hallway.

“He ain’t tryna be mean sweetheart” Joel whispered as you clung to him.

“I-I know” you spoke hiccuping through your words.

“He’s just worried about you, and so am I”

You pulled away from Joel’s embrace, wiping your eyes. Of course you knew it was wrong, Of course you knew you could get seriously hurt or end up dead. But if it was that straightforward you would’ve been gone a long time ago.

“Can you at least stay until i get some painkillers in ya’?” Joel asked, and it wasn’t a big ask at all… but to you it felt like a hefty question. But it wouldn’t hurt right? You could take the painkillers then head straight back home as if nothing happened.

You nodded and Joel gave a soft smile, and took your hand, leading you through the house and up the stairs.

“I keep everythin’ in my bathroom cabinet, jus’ better that way” he seemingly answered every question you had without you even having to ask.

He led you to sit on his bed as he went into the bathroom, rummaging for a few moments before returning with little white capsules in his hand, he reached into his night stand and grabbed an unopened bottle of water, twisting the cap and handing you both items.

He watched you carefully as you took the pills, swallowing them with water and taking a few more chugs of the water as you didn’t realise how thirsty you were. You handed the bottle back to him and he placed it back on his nightstand.

His room was so cozy, you had never been up here before. Shades of grey and black accented the room, lights dim and sheets soft, his bed big enough for 4 people never mind just him. You could tell this room probably wasn’t his idea as Joel wasn’t one to prioritise his own comfort. It was so cozy that your eyes began to droop, and your head began to sway.

“Lay down, babygirl” Joel instructed and even came to your side to aid you but you pushed him off.

“Nuh-uh I can’t, have to go home”

“Just lay down for 5 minutes, c’mon i don’t want you passing out” he insisted.

“M’kay, 5 minutes” He helped you lay down as you got comfortable on his plushy sheets, it was almost unusual how sleepy you were. You felt your eyes begin to shut against your will and felt your breathing begin to slow. You were falling asleep, but no matter what you did you couldn’t stop it from overcoming you. Your body drifting into a deep slumber before Joel’s eyes.

If only you’d of seen the bottle of sleeping pills sat out on his bathroom counter.

When you woke, it was way darker outside, an ambient light flashing through, you squinted for a minute until you realised it was police lights. You searched your surroundings realising you were wearing a t-shirt and bottoms that did not belong to you, and you were also laying on joel’s pillows, the covers atop of you. You threw the covers off and began to stand up, your sleepiness still coursing through your body. how long did i sleep?

You padded towards the window, looking out and gasping at the sight of Rick being pushed into the back of a police car, his protests actively ignored by the officers, you began to start panicking but something caught your eye, or someone.

Tommy stood on the front porch, a cigarette hanging from his lips as he watched the car drive down the street, the officer driving giving him a wave as they passed… they know each other?

“You’re awake” your body jolted as you spun round to face Joel, who stood in the middle of the room holding a mug of what looked and smelled like tea. He motioned for you to take the mug but you ignored him, eyeing him with a look of betrayal.

“I know you didn’t want this sweet girl but i-”

“Didn’t want this? Joel do you have any fucking idea what you’ve just done? He’s gonna get out and he’s gonna come straight for me, do you understand that?” you ran your hands through your hair, pacing back and forth and contemplating all of your options.

“Hey, hey, hey” Joel sat the mug down and walked over grabbing a hold of your shoulders and pulling you to him. “He ain’t gonna hurt you no more, understand”

You looked into his eyes and saw nothing but pure sureness in his eyes.

“He comes anywhere near ya i’ll kill m’ myself”… again, the sureness… but something else lurked in his irises, something dark.

“You’re not killing anyone Joel” you pulled out of his grip and began to walk away, searching for your lost clothes, rummaging through his wardrobe and under his bed.

“Where’s all my stuff?”

Joel sighed and walked over to you again.

“It’s in the laundry, why are you so desperate to leave? He’s not here anymore” You heard the frustration in his voice but why was he angry at you, it meant you could go home peacefully.

“Because it’s my home, Joel”

“This is your home” He said plainly, which in any other circumstance would’ve been sweet but you couldn’t shake the feeling of something being wrong.

“That’s kind Joel but I really gotta-”

“You think now that i’ve got you i’m just gonna let you go?” He chuckled.

The air shifted as you looked into Joel’s eyes that seemed to have nothing but pure lust for you, he had been drinking.

But it wasn’t until your eyes caught the little orange pill bottle sat open on the counter that it finally clicked. And he noticed when it clicked. His eyes followed yours and he sighed at his mistake, before giving a slight scoff.

“Sorry, probably shoulda’ put that away before”

“Joel?” You grew more and more frightened as the seconds grew by, this wasn’t your Joel. This Joel had something dark and malicious about him.

“Hey, it’s alright sweetheart” he came up and held your face in his hands…

“I’m gonna take care of you now”
