lover is a day
a/n: hi pals !! here is a sort of angsty but fluffy fic inspired by another cuco song ! i cant believe tfaws is over i miss them already :[ lyrics in bold ! srry for any typos </3
buckys mind is racing all the time, you’re there to slow him down
word count: 3.1k
masterlist
will you love this part of me?
Bucky tried his damn best to keep you out of the avenging part of his love. He never introduced you to the team, only telling Steve about you and Sam finding out because he stole Buckys phone and you just so happened to call him.
You saw the trends on Twitter, seeing the videos of your boyfriend easily take down seven men in a bar in madripoor. You tried your best to not watch it, knowing he wouldn’t want you to. Curiosity getting the best of you, you clicked the trend, mouth dropping as you saw the way he fought.
His eyes were cold, he moved like it was second nature to him, it was frightening to see how easy it came to him.
You jumped as your phone vibrated, an incoming call from bucky pausing the video. You hesitated before answering, putting on a bright smile and trying to forget what you had just seen.
“hi doll face” Bucky smiled, you heard the thumping of music in the background.
“hi buck, are you at a club?” You questioned, a smile on your face as he let out a sigh, rolling onto his back on the couch he was on.
“I’m at Sharon’s place, she has this whole museum club thing going on” he explained, your eyes wide at the mention of the agent.
“Sharon? like Steve Sharon? Sharon from shield?” You questioned, bucky smiled at your interest, nodding along to your words, quickly replying when he realized you weren’t on FaceTime.
Bucky kept you in the loop, not wanting you to get caught off guard if anything were to happen. He just made sure you were never in danger and no one knew about you, as much as he’d want to shout from the roof just how much he loved you.
“that’s the one, I’ll explain when i get back” he spoke calmly, rubbing his eyes with the back of his hands as he put you on speaker.
Bucky talked about some movie he wanted to watch, your mind drifting back to the video, your heart thumping in your ears.
“doll?” He asked, his voice echoing in you room.
“what, sorry i got distracted” you replied, trying to play it off. Bucky frowned, his heart sinking at the realization.
“you saw it” he spoke simply, moving to sit up on the couch again, his eyes focusing on the floor.
You wanted to lie, say you had no idea what he was talking about. But you couldn’t, mouth opening only to close seconds later.
“I never wanted you to see that part of me” he spoke, you stayed quiet, letting him talk.
“Doll, I’m not him anymore i promise” he hesisted, “Zemo made me do it and i didn’t think i would- i just im gonna go” he spoke, hanging up quickly, heart heavy.
Furthering my distance from you
Bucky was never the best at speaking his mind, always too caught up in his own thoughts to say what he felt, thinking it never mattered and he should keep to himself.
You texted him right after, telling him to please take care, that you loved him. He didn’t reply.
It wasn’t for another couple days when he came home, entering quietly trying to not wake you up in case you were asleep already.
He set his bags down softly, entering the room and expecting to find you curled up. Buckys heart raced as he looked up to see you staring at him with a smile on your face, getting off the bed quickly and throwing yourself onto him.
“i missed you so much james” you whispered, squeezing him slightly as your arms wrapped around him.
“y/n i-” he began, pushing you back softly. You let go reluctantly, knowing he wanted his space.
I’m okay as long as you keep me from going crazy
“Bucky, it’s okay” you replied, stopping him from going down a rabbit hole if you didn’t. You looked at him, the light from your bedside lamp only slightly illuminating the room.
“i know thats not you anymore, sometimes you have to do something’s to get stuff and i get that angel” you spoke, looking at him softly, slowly grabbing his hand and squeezing.
“i still love you bucky, with all my heart” you smiled, wishing you could see the way his cheeks flushed at your words.
He looked up from the floor, you could barely making out the way his lips turned up in a small smile.
“do you really?” He whispered, stepping closer so that your faces were only inches apart. You nodded, eyes flickering to his lips after a couple of seconds.
“I love you more doll” he replied, ears burning as you pulled him in for a kiss, holding the collar of his shirt to pull him closer.
You pulled away with a smile on your face, looking at him for a second before throwing your arms around him, holding him tightly. Bucky wrapped his arms around after a second, placing a kiss ontop of your head, never wanting to let you go.
You can’t get by with a lie
Bucky shot up, sweating and breathing heavy, looking over to see you stirring slightly at his movement.
“buck?” You mumbled, eyes still closed as you turned opening them slightly to reach for the super soldier. You placed a gentle hand on his vibranium one, looking at him with your fuzzy vision.
“nightmare?” you mumbled, sitting up and looking at him, his chest still heaving as he shook his head.
“no it- I’m fine” he spoke, “Cmon let’s get back to sleep” he smiled tightly but you shook your head, looking at him sternly.
“James we talked about this, please, talk to me angel” you looked at him, now fully awake and wanting to help bucky through his nightmares. He hesitated, sighing and fiddling with the edge of the blanket.
“okay” he nodded, heart racing as you helped him through his nightmare. You reminded him how he had changed, how he was a new person and he was trying his best to make amends.
“You’re okay, you’re here and you’re free” you spoke, hugging him tightly and stroking his arm soothingly. Bucky nodded, closing his eyes and focusing on your beating heart.
Funny thing about you is you read me pretty well
You clenched your fist, wanting to throw your laptop across the room as your work frustrated you once again. Your breathing was heavier and you let out a small sigh, not wanting to alert bucky.
After a couple more minutes you felt the tears pricking your eyes, squeezing them shut in hopes they would go away.
You got up quickly, heading toward the kitchen to get a drink of water, leaving bucky alone in the room. He turned to look at you, noting how fast you were walking and the way you were breathing shakily.
Bucky gave you a minute, waiting to see if you’d come back. When you didn’t return he followed you, seeing you staring out the cup in your hand with intense focus.
“doll, what’s wrong?” You looked at him, putting a smile on your face and shaking your head.
“I’m fine buck, just thirsty” he frowned, walking towards you and pulling you into his arms.
“i know you too well for that to work on me doll” he sighed, stroking your back softly as you but back tears, finally letting a sob out. “let it out doll I’m here.”
Me and Mr. Heart we say the cutest things about you
Bucky smiled at the way you jumped for joy when you saw a dog in the park, immediately talking his ear off about how you had always wanted your own.
“don’t you think we should adopt? I think we’re at that point y’know?” You smiled, starry eyes as you turned to look at him.
Never in his life had he felt more in love, he thought of how perfect you looked, with slightly messy hair from the wind and a stain on your shirt from the time he accidentally splashed paint on you.
He felt the world around him fade away, focusing only on you and your words, rattling off some facts about people with pets being happier in an effort to convince him.
Bucky thought of the way you had always cared for him, living him with all you were. He thought of how you were the most caring person in the world to him, how you were the most radiant person in the room no matter what.
He loved you so much and all he wanted was to make you happy.
“I’ve always been a cat person” he teased, loving the way you rolled your eyes with a playful smile on your face.
“we could get a cat, they’re calm and sweet” you nodded, taking his hand and pulling him towards the parking lot.
How could bucky say no when you looked so excited?
You held the white cat in your arms a few weeks later, a huge smile on your face as he purred into your touch.
“welcome home alpine” you smiled, setting the cat down and letting him explore.
Buckys heart grew in his chest, you seemed so unreal. You were everything he ever wanted and everything he ever needed. And you were all his.
You looked at bucky, a smile on your face as he picked up the cat, setting him gently on his lap.
“thought you were gonna get us a dog the whole time we were there” he spoke, looking at you as you stared at the pair, standing across the room and putting away some cat food and toys.
“you said you were a cat person” you replied, “plus you’re happy right?” You questioned, walking over and sitting down next to him, reaching out to scratch the back of Alpines ears.
“very happy doll” he smiled, eyes settling on the cat in his lap, wanting to place kisses all over the now sleeping feline.
“then I’m happy that you’re happy” you smiled, kissing his cheek softly, letting your head rest on his shoulder and enjoy the company of your now two favorite boys.
My lover is a day I can’t forget
“Do you remember how we met?” You asked suddenly, bucky smiled as he recalled the memory.
“doll it’s 3 am” he chuckled, the streetlight sneaking in through the curtains as you two lay in bed.
“so you don’t” you huffed, turning so your back would face him. Bucky smiled at your reaction, quickly turning you back around to face him.
“of course i do doll” he replied, a soft smile still on his face, “why?”
“what did you think of me?” You wondered, wiggling a bit to get more comfortable. You had a small smile on your face as he began talking.
“i thought you were too nice, they got your whole order wrong and you still ate the whole thing” he smiled.
Buckys eyes had immediately landed on you when he entered the small diner, seeing you smiling with a couple of your friends.
Steve was insistent on getting him to go to more places and this was #1 on his list.
“so those are my favorites you can always look through the menu though i guess” steve smiled, noticing his friends focus on you.
“thank you!” You smiled at the waitress, taking the dish from her, turning to your friends as soon as she left.
“i didn’t order this” you grumbled, your friends insisting you send it back.
“but what if she’s having a bad day already? and this is the last straw? It’s fine i can just eat it it’ll be fine” you shook your head, taking a bite and making a face.
“send it back y/n!” Your friend persisted and you shook your head, you were so stubborn.
“it’s not that bad!” You smiled, eating the whole thing, “wish it was the other one though” you giggled as your friends rolled their eyes.
Bucky kept glancing over at you, trying to not make it obvious. Steve decided against saying anything, making easy conversation with his best friend.
You hit your friend gently, a blush on your face when your eyes had landed on the two super soldiers.
“okay don’t be obvious” you began, “that’s steve rogers and bucky barnes?” You whispered, your friends all turning and looking at the table.
Bucky had just so happened the be glancing over, making eye contact with you, his face went red as he saw your whole table staring at the pair.
“You were so shy, you didn’t even have the guts to say hi” he teased and you punched him softly.
“you didn’t say anything either in my defense” you smiled, fiddling with his dog tags.
You turned back quickly, slapping a hand on your face as your friends laughed. “I said don’t be obvious did i not!”
“didn’t you say you would die for him? You talk about him almost everyday” your friend teased and you hit her, face burning.
“shut up! they’re super soldiers what if they hear you” you snuck a glance at their table, seeing the way bucky had a small smirk on his face and Steve was holding back a laugh.
“i hate you guys, i really do” you mumbled, “should i say sorry? I feel like i should say sorry right?”
“You just want an excuse to give that man sex eyes” another one of your friends spoke up and you rolled your eyes.
You snuck a glance at bucky making eye contact, you gave a small smile which he happily returned, waving slightly. You waved back, quickly turning back to your friends as your heart raced.
You and your friends paid and left not long after, Steve and bucky following a couple minutes after. You said your goodbyes in the parking lot, giving them tight hugs.
“you sure you don’t want a ride?” They had asked and you shook your head, waving her off as you walked to the bus stop down the street, sitting on the bench and scrolling through your social media mindlessly.
You looked up as someone sat next to you, giving them a small smile before realizing it was bucky. Your eyes went wide and you froze, eyes focused on your now locked phone. You could hear your heartbeat in your ears.
You glanced at bucky, face flushing when you made eye contact.
“you were so charming, i still don’t understand how you could be so calm” you spoke, looking at him as he let out a snort.
“i was shitting myself the whole time doll” he laughed, “I’m surprised i didn’t fuck up the moment i opened my mouth.”
“I’m bucky” he smiled, extending his had for you to shake. You smiled back, shaking his hand before replying, “I’m y/n.”
You were quiet for a second before turning to face him again, “I’m sorry for my friends in the diner, they can be a bit much” you chuckled, fiddling with your phone in your hands.
“don’t worry ‘bout it, I’m flattered honestly” he replied and you cocked your head.
“oh?” You replied, confused at his response.
“I mean to have a pretty girl like you thinking about me? An honor really” he spoke smoothly, a charming smile on his face as he looked at you.
“i- well- uh, thank you?” You let out a breathy laugh, and he smiled at you, moving onto another topic of conversation.
Next thing you knew the two of you were sat together on the bus, laughing as you two exchanged stories and talked about your interests.
“this is my stop” you frowned, not wanting to end the conversation yet. Buckys heart raced, debating on wether or not he should make a move or not. Steve would surely have his head on a spike if he didn’t.
“i- well, if you want i can walk you, it’s dark and i don’t want you in any danger” he spoke, stumbling in his words.
“I’d love that buck” you smiled and he looked at you with a grin on his face, following you out of the bus.
The evening air was cool, it felt nice against your flushed skin, a smile on both of your faces as you walked towards your apartment. The sound of your laughter filling the open air.
You arrived at your apartment building, exchanging numbers and saying goodbye, already looking forward to see each other next time.
“can’t believe you walked me back” you giggled, butterflies in your stomach as you remembered how flirty he was that night.
“i never told you but i had actually driven to the place” bucky blushed, “Steve had been busy earlier so we met up there” he laughed as your mouth flew open.
“so you had to go all the way back to get your car?!” Bucky smiled bashfully, “you even paid to take the bus!” You squealed, sitting up quickly and leaning against the headboard.
“I wasn’t gonna let public transportation stand between me and the love of my life!” Bucky replied quickly, sitting up next to you.
“you barely knew me!”
“i wanted to get to know you! that was the whole point” he shot back, a smile on his face when he noticed how flustered you were.
“you did all that for me” you looked at him fondly and he nodded.
“and I’d do so much more for you now” Bucky smiled, kissing your cheek softly before moving to your jaw and then your lips.
“I love you so much doll” he whispered, pulling you into his arms. You let him wrap himself around you, holding you closely to his chest.
“i love you more lovely” you replied, placing a soft kiss on his bicep. He held you for a couple more moments before letting go, letting you move back to his side and lay on his chest.
“you do so much for me doll, you keep me grounded, you make me happy, you keep me from going crazy, wish i could do the same” he mumbled, his fingers scratching at your scalp and making your eyes flutter shut.
“you do all that and more for me too james, you just never realize” you whispered, yawning as he continued his movements.
“how about we go to sleep, and I’ll tell you all tomorrow just how much you do for me, yeah?” You mumbled, opening your eyes slightly. Bucky nodded, laying down and getting comfortable, moving so that he could spoon you, draping an arm around your waist and pulling you to his chest.
“goodnight lover boy” you mumbled, he smiled at the nickname.
“goodnight dollface” he whispered, kissing your neck softly before closing his eyes, hearing alpines soft purring from across the room.

Freezer Duty (Part One)
(This was going to be a one-shot but then it reached 4,000 words so now it’s split up)
----------------------------
Amy parks her car and lays her head on the steering wheel. "You can do this. Christmas shopping is already slowing down, you can do this."
She grabs her coffee thermos, a special blend Emma came up with just for the holiday rush days (it had made Amy almost cry with thankful joy, and had made Emma shrink into her sweater and mutter "Whatever," five times straight), and gets out of her car.
The parking lot is mostly empty. Either most of her coworkers took the bus, or Amy is one of the only people on time... again. Not that she blames anyone. The weather is so cold that getting out of bed feels like a death sentence.
As she walks to the doors, she glances at the other cars. Glenn, obviously. As long as she's been working there, he's always been early. Carol, too. Probably planning to mess with Sandra somehow, this kind of stuff is why corporate shouldn't have shut down the in-store HR department. And then...
Jonah's car? He's usually at least a couple of minutes later than her... weird.
She walks past, and pauses. Why are the inside lights on? That means it's unlocked, and she knows Jonah locks his car obsessively. She once saw him lock it five times through the doors of the store.
Curiosity claims her, and she peeks inside.
And drops her thermos.
“Oh my go- JONAH!”
The scream is loud enough to summon Glenn. “Amy, what is- AHHHH!” he holds his hands up to his head as he shrieks.
Jonah is laying inside his car, bleeding from the neck.
Amy yanks open the car door and shakes Jonah’s shoulders. “Jonah, Jonah wake up!” As she shakes and calls out, Glenn stands behind her with his hands clasped, frantically praying to both Jesus and the Jewish God in a highly confusing yet heartfelt prayer.
“Jonah!” Amy slaps him in the face in a moment of complete desperation.
Jonah startles awake and puts his hand up to his cheek. “O-ow! What was that for! And...” he looks behind Amy. “... Why is Glenn turning purple.”
“Wh- oh, my god, Glenn, take a breath. Okay, um, Jonah, are you alright?”
“I-I think so... why?”
“Well, because you’re sitting in your turned-off unlocked car, in the middle of winter, passed out with blood on your neck.”
“WHAT?!” Jonah feels his neck. “OH- oh, god this is- this is not good, how did-”
“Our insurance is so bad,” Glenn sobs, “You’re not gonna make it!”
“Glenn, don’t- okay, let’s get you inside and- you’re not still bleeding, right?”
“I don’t think so, but what does critical blood loss feel like? Like would I be able to tell? I need to Google this, just-”
“Yeah, you’re going to be okay. Okay, into the store, Glenn help us out.”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Ow.” Jonah winces and flinches away as Amy dabs his neck with a wipe.
“Pretty dramatic start to the work day, gosh. I hope nothing else happens.” Glenn shakes his hands by his sides and looks around nervously. He leans in and whispers, “Do you think they’ll find another foot? Jonah, what sneakers do you wear?”
“Again, still have both off my feet.” Jonah winces again, and Amy sets down the towel.
“Okay, it’s all clean, so now we can-”
“Hey guys! Whoa...” Cheyenne stops in her tracks as she enters the breakroom, spreading her arms and stopping everyone else from entering too. There’s an annoyed clamoring for a minute before Garrett just rolls in under her arm. Everyone stoops down to follow, except Marcus, who tries (and fails) to turn it into a game of Limbo.
Garrett looks at the bloody wipes on the table Jonah and Amy are at. “Whoa, dude, what the hell happened?”
Amy sighs. “Jonah was-”
“We found Jonah dying in his car!” Glenn exclaims.
“Not dying!” Jonah and Amy say quickly.
“He was passed out and bleeding a little,” Amy says to cut any rumors off preemptively, moving the collar of his shirt to get a better look at the wounds.
“In your car? In the middle of winter?”
Glenn nods, his face screwed up with worry. “And no scarf!”
“Oh, you’re for sure gonna die,” Cheyenne says, Mateo nodding in agreement. “It’s like, super cold outside.”
“Honestly I didn’t even feel that cold,” Jonah says, putting his hands up. “I guess my car stayed warm. ... Some-somehow.”
“What were you even doing in there? Are you homeless again? You could always crash at my place. Unless the birds don’t like you, then you’re gone. Nothing personal.” Dina sips her coffee.
“Thank you, for that... generous offer, um, I don’t actually remember.”
Amy pauses her checking. “You don’t?”
“No, I um, I just remember realizing I forgot something and going back into the store to get it, and then coming out and everyone was gone. And then there’s just sort of, nothing. ... That-that actually is more worrying, now that I say it aloud, am-am I dying?”
“Your brain probably froze up and is just taking time to de-thaw,” Marcus says with a flippant gesture. “Happened to my cousin once when we ate too many beer-pops.”
“... Okay, then, what’s a- no, nevermind, I can just guess. I don’t actually think that’s how brain freezes work, but thanks, I think.”
Marcus smiles and raises his hands in an attempt at a gracious gesture.
“So you don’t remember anything?” Amy asks, bringing the subject back to the alarming and somewhat urgent situation.
“Maybe someone came up behind him and hit him over the head. Blunt force trauma, put him back in his car to make it look like he froze to death, do you know of anyone who wants to kill you? Maybe a disgruntled ex-classmate, customer you bored out of their skull with a pointless story, maybe-”
“That- no. No, I don’t think anyone wants to kill me for telling an invigorating story. And I’d rather not think about that, actually.”
Dina shrugs. “You don’t want to solve the mystery, fine. But don’t blame me when someone you screwed over in a group project cuts off your junk.”
Jonah and Amy stare at Dina for a second, and then Amy shakes her head. “Anyway... I checked, and I don’t think he has anything wrong with his head. Just his neck.”
Mateo glances over, unperturbed but curious. His expression becomes horrified. “Oh, my god! There’s two giant holes in your neck!”
Jonah slaps his hand over the wounds. “WHAT?!”
“They are not giant holes!” Amy shouts as everyone starts chattering. “They’re tiny ones! And-and they’re more like cuts, anyway!”
“Maybe someone injected him with drugs.”
“Why would they do that, Dina?”
“Yeah, who wastes drugs like that?” Cheyenne looks around at everyone else, who have gone silent. “What?”
“And, wait, with two needles?” Garrett points to Jonah’s neck.
“Maybe they missed a vein the first time.” Dina snorts like it’s an obvious conclusion.
Marcus snaps his fingers. “Maybe it’s some kind of new fancy needle.”
Dina shakes her head. “I keep up to date on drug needle trends. We find too many in the customer bathrooms for me to be out of the loop.”
Glenn startles slightly. “We do?”
“Guys!” Amy gestures at Jonah.
Everyone murmurs some form of “Right!” or “Sorry Jonah.”
“Really, I’m-I’m fine.” Jonah keeps a hand over the holes. “It’s just a little sore, and um, I don’t know, I guess I’m a little chilly and tired, but I’m generally okay.”
“Okay, great!” Dina claps her hands. “You can have an easy assignment today because of the whole ‘attacked for revenge’ thing-”
“That’s not what-”
“Well, no-one knows what happened, so for now my theory is valid. Anyway, I’ll assign you to grocery. Slow over there today, bakery is having a big sale and uh, huh, we had an overstock of powered donuts so it might get wild.”
“Well... thank you, Dina. A slow day sounds good, actually, because I’m starting to get a headache.” Jonah rubs his eyes. “Really bright in here.”
“It’s the standard fluorescents.” Glenn looks up. “Unless corporate had it changed overnight, but I don’t think so...”
Cheyenne tilts her head with a small frown, and looks at Jonah’s neck throughout the rest of the meeting.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“No way,” Mateo scoffs. “That’s far-fetched gossip, even for us.”
“No, but it would make sense, right?” Cheyenne looks around, and then whispers. “Didn’t notice the cold, lights too bright, two holes in his neck. Jonah totally got bitten by a vampire.” She leans back and nods, eyes wide at her own revelation.
“Vampires aren’t even real though! As much as we might wish they were.”
They glance over at Grocery. Jonah is yawning, leaning against the freezer section.
“He looks pale, right?” Cheyenne whispers.
“He always looks pale. He could wear non-tinted sunscreen as foundation,” Mateo says with a dismissive wave of his hand.
“Yeah, I guess. ... Should we try to get a look at his eyes?”
“Chy, I love you, but we’ve got a ton of restocking to do and I don’t want to be all panicked before lunch.”
“Right. Right. Yeah. Probably just like, letting my imagination get the best of me, right? Yeah...”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Excuse me?”
Jonah startles, jumping away from the freezer door. “Hi! Yes, sorry! Um, what-what can I... help you with?”
“Could you please show me where the frozen pizzas are?”
“Sure, ma’am, right this way.” Jonah rubs his eyes, leading her to a different section of the freezer area.
“Oh, thank you! Could you grab it for me?”
“Wh-why?”
“I don’t like the cold.”
Well, neither does he, and he’s already chilly. But this is his job. Somehow. How did he get here again? His head feel a little foggy, he can’t quite gather his thoughts.
He reaches in and grabs the pizza. “Okay, here you-”
“No, the ones from the very back.”
“... I-I’m sorry?”
“The back ones are always better.”
“... Alright, I will... reach all the way into the back of the freezer.”
Jonah leans into the freezer, bracing himself for chills and shivers. And...
... Nothing.
It’s cold, but it’s... not bothering him that much. he leans in, grabs the pizza, and leans back out without feeling any more cold than he did prior to the task.
“Thank you, young man. You should grab yourself one too, it’ll put some color into those cheeks.”
The old woman walks away, and Jonah pulls out his phone to look up symptoms of frostbite and hypothermia.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Justine shakes her head. “I’ve read Twilight a million times, if he was a vampire I would be able to tell.”
“What if we give him some garlic bread, and tell him it’s normal bread?” Sandra suggests.
“Because if he’s just allergic to garlic, we won’t know the difference. Doy.” Marcus scoff-laughs at Sandra and points at her mockingly with his thumb.
“What are you guys talking about?” Garrett asks, rolling up to the group. “Marcus, aren’t you supposed to be unloading a truck right now?”
“Eh, didn’t feel like it. Anyway, we’re trying to figure out if Jonah is a vampire now.”
“Are you serious?”
They all nod. Garrett grins. He folds his hands in his lap. “So what have you tried so far?”
“Nothing yet,” Justine admits.
“We might give him garlic bread,” Sandra says with a shrug. “Is he allergic to garlic?”
“No.”
Sandra lights up. “So it would work!” Her smiles fades. “Oh. But then it might kill him.”
“We can’t do that! The Horsemen stick together, I could never hurt my best friend.” Marcus shakes his head. “What if we just drop something really heavy on him and see if he catches it?”
“That won’t hurt him?” Garrett checks.
“Not if he’s a vampire.”
“Right, right. How about instead of splattering him across the Wheaties boxes, you just ask Glenn to go pester him with Bible stuff?” Garrett would love to see that, Jonah gets to flustered over trying not to offend while trying to get away. It’s hilarious.
Marcus points at Garrett with a smile. “That- yes! Perfect! Thanks man!”
The small group runs off, and Garrett laughs a little to himself as he heads on back to customer service.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Oh, this one is one of my favorite verses, so here we go, ahem-”
“Hey, Glenn? Isn’t there a-a rule, against doing this kind of thing at work?”
“Well... technically... but Marcus told me you wanted to know my favorite parts of the Bible, so I just sort of thought why wait.”
“He- really? Because I’m not... known, for being very curious about... the Bible...”
“But you are known for being curious about your friends,” Glenn says with a point and a smile.
Jonah plasters on a smile himself. “Yeah. Yeah, I do tend to-”
“Get a little nosy.”
“... I was going to say get involved, but... I-I guess nosy works too. But um, I’m restocking the ice cream right now, so kind of have to act fast,” Jonah motions at the freezeer.
“Oh, then I’ll make this quick! Okay, this verse says-”
Jonah sighs, rubbing his head. His headache is just getting worse and worse. He’s pretty sure it’s the lights, or maybe the dry-cold freezer air, but Glenn’s babbling is not helping.
And his voice is really grating right now. It’s not exactly soothing at even the best of times, but Jonah is pretty sure he’d rather listen to nails on a chalkboard than another round of ‘Top Bible Verses’ from Glenn.
“Okay!” he snaps. “That’s good, that is- that is very much enough! Thank you for sharing something you enjoy with me, now please let me do my job!”
Glenn startles, and then hugs his Bible to his chest. “Fine. Then I guess you don’t get to hear me sing the top five best Psalms. Which is too bad for you, because Jerusha says I do them well enough to be on radio.”
Glenn walks away, and Jonah sighs. He hadn’t meant to snap, it was just really getting on his nerves. ... At least his headache is a little better already without the extra noise.
He watches Glenn walk away, and then catches sight of Justine and Sandra quickly ducking behind another isle. He looks on in confusion for a moment more, and then gets back to work.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Okay, we need a real plan,” Justine sighs.
“For what?” Dina pauses on her way to the coffee pot. “More raccoons? Did they find a snake in the bananas again?”
“We think Jonah night be a vampire,” Sandra says.
Cheyenne stops eating her lunch. “Oh my god, you told them?”
“I couldn’t think of anything else to say!” Mateo defends. “It’s been a boring day! Other than, you know, Jonah almost dying.”
“Wait, you guys think Jonah is a vampire? No way, have you seen him? That’d be too cliche.” Dina scoffs at the idea. And then looks at the ground, a thoughtful frown appearing on her face. “Although the cliche would also mean it makes sense...”
Garrett eats a chip. “Come on, he’d be a terrible vampire. Vampires are supposed to be confidant and suave. Jonah can’t even explain his cookie choices without a five-minute tirade.”
“And he’d cut himself off at least six times in those five minute,” Dina says with a slight wince. “Yeah, he’d be a terrible vampire.”
“I don’t know. Sometimes he’s really confident, and he does that smirk thing?” Sandra says, gesturing to her own mouth for emphasis. “Plus, he always stands like a politician.”
“And he puts way too much product in his hair! That’s a total vampire thing,” Cheyenne says with a definitive shrug.
“He does already have that black-hair-pale-skin thing going for him...” Mateo admits. “If he could be a villain on CW he could be a vampire.”
“And how would he drink blood?” Garrett asks. “Just talk until the person passes out? Ask overly politely in a way that really sounds like he’s trying to ask for sex?”
Everyone murmurs in agreement.
“He would starve,” Cheyenne declares. “Because he’d be picky, too, right?”
“Picky like, about the person’s health?” Mateo asks with a doubtful frown. “He’d probably freak out about not wanting to discriminate though.”
“That would be the starvation,” Dina says with a nod. “He’d be too worried about the socio-political crap of whoever he picks so he’d just debate himself until it was too late.”
“... That’d be kind of funny,” Mateo says quietly.
Everyone thinks for a moment, and then agrees.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Hey, Jonah.” Dina snaps her fingers in front of Jonah’s face, jarring him out of his standing sleep. “What’s wrong with you?”
“Sorry, Dina.” Jonah rubs his face. “I feel exhausted.”
“It’s the middle of the day.”
“Yeah! Yeah, I know. Um, what did you need?”
“I need you to go help Brett move some of the exercise equipment, the dolly broke.”
“Wh- so-so we have to move it by hand?”
“You’ve got a little muscle on your noodle arms, you can handle it.” Dina slaps him on the back and walks away. Jonah huffs, hands on his hips. After a moment he shakes his head and moves over to exercise.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Okay, now we find out for sure,” Dina says smugly. “No way a Human Jonah could handle the weight of that stuff.”
Everyone is crammed into the surveillance office, watching Jonah on the monitors.
“Should one of us tell Amy about this?” Cheyenne asks. “I feel like we’re leaving her out.”
“It is weird that I’m in on this and not her,” Marcus agrees. “But she’d probably tell us this is ‘dangerous’ or something.”
“She wouldn’t like it at all,” Dina confirms. “Best to just tell her about it later, or let her find out on her own. Later.”
They watch Jonah and Brett work together surprisingly smoothly, moving the heavy equipment with a perfectly human amount of struggling. Dina leans back in her chair with a disappointed sigh. “Dammit. I almost let myself believe in magic...”
“Wait, look!” Cheyenne points to the monitor.
Everyone looks, excited and hopeful. And they collectively sigh and grumble.
“He’s just talking to a customer,” Mateo says.
“A super rude one! I’ve dealt with him before, he’s a total asshole. Let’s turn on the audio and listen to Jonah freak out.”
“I do love a good Jonah freakout.” Dina turns on the audio.
“Yeah, I-I’m sorry, sir, we just don’t carry that here anymore.”
“This store has carried it for over ten years.”
“Yeah, it’s a bummer! I know I hate when store stop carrying stuff I like. But maybe! Maybe we can view this as a-a chance for personal growth, for you! A chance at... at evolution, at moving forward-”
“Are you mocking me, little bitch boy?”
Everyone gasps. “Oh no he didn’t,” Cheyenne whispers. On the camera, Jonah is clearly taken aback, leaning away from the customer and staring with wide eyes.
“Some... very strong language, sir. Um, no, I just meant that maybe, you know, instead of-of viewing this in the negative-”
“So I’m a negative person?”
“No! No, I can’t- I don’t know you! I can’t make judgements about people that fast! Just- I hope this doesn’t ruin your day, right? And-and I want to see if we can find you a-a replacement, so that you can still have what you want!”
“How important do you think this is to me? You think I’m pathetic? Can’t be happy without my specific little brand?”
“No, I just-”
“I’m gonna need to speak with your bitch of a floor manager or whatever she’s called.”
“... I’m sorry?”
“Your bitch of a floor manager. The loud Latina lady.”
Dina stands up, ready to go beat the man with a bat for talking about her best friend that way. Cheyenne pushes her back down, jaw dropped. “I think Jonah is about to stand up to him,” she says.
Jonah is indeed, looking quite pissed off. He steps closer, and looks the much taller man right in the eyes. Jonah’s a good head shorter, his hair barely coming up to the other man’s chin, yet for some reason unknown the black-and-white monitor shows the customer being the one who leans back.
“You, sir, are a very unpleasant person,” Jonah says in a calm, measured voice. “And I think you need to do some self-reflection. I think you should leave the store, and learn how to talk about people without using the word ‘bitch’, alright?”
It’s so overly polite it’s almost comical. Yet somehow... it works.
The customer stands there for a second, then just... walks away. Jonah watches after him, the calm and collection expression on his face quickly giving way to confusion. He looks around as though wondering if someone else had done something to scare the customer off.
“Confidence boost,” Sandra says softly.
Cheyenne pulls out a notebook and ticks something off. “That counts as evidence.”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jonah has no clue what just happened.
One moment he was speaking with a rude customer, the next the customer was walking away and Jonah has no clue why. What he does know was that his headache was slightly better, and that he really wishes his lunch break was sooner because he is famished.
Someone taps him on the shoulder, and he nearly jumps out of his skin. He turns around to see Amy looking at him with slight concern. “You okay? You’re just sort of... staring off into space.”
“Hmm? Oh, yeah. Uh... yeah, I’m fine. Totally fine.”
“... I don’t believe you.”
“Well, then you... have trust issues, because I am. I’m fine.”
“... Sure... can I see your neck again, real quick?”
“Why?”
“Because you’re acting weird and I want to make sure you’re not developing an infection that’s getting to your brain?”
“... Yeah, check away.”
Amy checks, and winces. “Youch. Yeah, let’s get some more antibiotics on those.” She starts leading him towards the breakroom. “So, what happened with that customer? I came over right at the tail end, missed the whole thing.”
“Oh. Um... I guess I just, really got through to him.”
“You?”
“Yes, me, why- what is that supposed to mean?”
“Nothing! It’s just, usually when you try to calm down a customer you don’t get very far.”
“Well, you know, sometimes people just listen if you hit the right cords-”
“Mmm-hmm, yeah.”
“-I guess I just found the right words to resonate with him, is all I’m saying.” If only he knew what those words were...
Creak
Jonah pauses. “Did-did you just hear that?”
“Hear what?”
Creaaak
Jonah looks up. “I think the ceiling is about to collapse.”
“Why?”
CREAAAAK!
A mass of merch falls from the ceiling! Amy and Jonah both scream, brace themselves, Amy still holding onto Jonah and Jonah still holding onto Amy-!
...
And... they’re a safe distance from it all as it crashes down.
A multitude of raccoons scamper out and scatter, their Nest Of Stolen Goods now revealed. Jonah and Amy watch from the sidelines.
The sidelines!
“How did we get over here?” Amy is staring at the pile.
“... I don’t know,” Jonah replies, staring as well. Oh, what an adrenaline rush, his heart is racing- ... it... should... be racing...
Amy’s hand is still around Jonah’s wrist. She looks at him for a moment, and then shakes off the shock. “Okay, um, let’s get a team to clean this up, and get some antibiotic on your neck.”
“Will that part take a whole team, too?”
“Ha-ha, Jonah. ... I’m just glad neither of us got hurt.”
“Yeah. Me too.”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!” Cheyenne grabs Mateo and starts shaking him. “DID YOU SEE WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!”
“WE ALL SAW!” Mateo shouts, pushing Cheyenne away. He huffs and brushes off his sweater. “All three of us left, anyway.”
Dina taps the monitor. “That’s why you never leave the surveillance room after something mildly interesting happens! Something big always follows!”
“He’s actually a vampire,” Mateo says in disbelief. “He vampire-ran away from that junk, he’s actually a vampire!”
Dina scoff-laughs. “The little guy pulled off one hell of a ruse, huh? Pretty clever, faking amnesia.”
Cheyenne stops her mini victory celebration. “Whoa, why do you think he’s faking?”
“Because why wouldn’t I? He’s a vampire now, even if he actually doesn’t remember what happened it’s got to be pretty obvious to him that he’s undead. ... Right?”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“What’re you googling?” Amy dabs at the neck wounds gently with a damp cloth as she prepares to put on the antibiotic cream.
“Symptoms of frostbite and hypothermia. I guess everyone got into my head this morning, and I’ve had some weird stuff happen to me...”
“Well... anything about last night coming back? Could help you figure out whatever symptoms you’ve got.”
“Still nothing.” Jonah rubs his neck when Amy is done dabbing it with the cloth. “I still feel like the day just started, honestly.”
“Oh yeah,” Amy agrees. “Today’s going to be a long day.”

I was wondering how would the RFA react to MC playing a prank on them using the “ Yo is your man still around” Audio from TikTok to see what they’re reactions is? Btw I love your work keep it up and I hope you have a lovely day
RFA react to a MC who use a TikTok sound (Yo what’s good Shortie, is your man still around)
Hey Babe! Thank you for your patience! I hope you will enjoy this HC. At first, I thought, that TikTok was a dumb App and yeah. It didn’t even take me a day to get obsessed with it, I love it! So, tell me your opinion on it, okay? Have a good day, I love you!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/6cdf6a1a998d99cca46c03a81700aabf/527fdd0e7cd9b53a-99/s540x810/e386745d95e70c95a9ef56dc75979cad62eeda96.jpg)
Jumin
You got a bit bored with time and since there were days when Jumin wasn’t by your side that much, you decided to download the app that everyone went crazy for lately - TikTok.
At first it was a bit difficult for you to use it. You were unsure how to get content you liked, but in time your FYP became better and better until you saw that one trend.
A sound was a man’s voice said, ,,Yo what’s good Shortie, is your man still around?’’ and all the men in the videos reacted just so sweetly…
You knew that you had to do it too.
And so, you gave Jumin a kiss when he wanted to go to work and then started playing audio.
Jumin waited and looked at you because he didn’t recognize your phone ringtone.
But when the man asked the question, Jumin’s face froze.
,,Excuse me. Who wants to know that?’’ he hissed and grabbed your phone, looking at the display he saw that this wasn’t a FaceTime call, but something else.
,,Who was that, Mc?’’ he asked you.
,,No one, Jumin. It was just a prank,’’ you tried to explain.
,,No, my love, I heard it clearly… don’t you love me anymore?’’ Jumin whispered and got on his knees.
,,Do you want to leave me?’’ he asked you.
Suddenly you felt guilty and decided to show him all the duets.
,,So this TikTok made this?’’ he asked after you showed him five videos.
You sighed and chuckled, trying to tell him once again that TikTok was the name of the app and not the one who made the audio.
Zen
You, as his manager, was in charge of his TikTok account and always read through the requests of his fans or deleted bad comments.
You did your job pretty well and that’s how one day you read a comment, which wasn’t for Zen, but for you.
,,Hello, Mc! I love you and I support you! May I ask for a video where you use the audio ,Yo what’s good Shortie, ur man still around?’, we need to see a jealous Zen!’’ the person named ,,MC X ZEN IS LIFE’’ asked you.
You still didn’t know the trend so you searched for it. It was then that you knew that this challenge would be pretty funny.
You told Zen that it was time for him to go.
Just while he put on his shoes, you started the challenge and recorded his expression.
At first, he looked up when he heard the ringtone, but looked down again.
However, his eyes were wide open when he heard ,,Yo what’s good Shortie,’’
But when he heard the question if he was still around, everything in his head stopped.
,,YOU ASSHOLE OF A MAN, YES SHE-’’ Zen quickly noticed that this was a video since the sound stopped and the video of him got replayed.
,,Huh?’’ he looked at you, a bit worried.
Suddenly, you broke down in laughter and saved the video, telling him the truth.
,,A fan?’’ he asked you.
You nodded and was just about to walk away when Zen hugged you from behind.
,,For a second my heart stopped and I really thought that you were cheating… You’re so mean, princess…’’ he whispered and kissed your neck.
,,I’ll make up for it…’’ you teased him.
Yoosung
You and your husband stopped talking.
Instead, you guys began to tag each other in the comments below funny TikToks.
,,Did you see this video already?’’ he often asked you, making you laugh loudly.
It was funny how good an app like this could become.
One day, while he was at work, you came across this audio and was about to tag Yoosung when you read a lot of the comments.
People were using the same audio to prank their boyfriends and you loved the idea.
You didn’t wait too long to use the trend and waited until Yoosung came home from work and had to leave for another visit to the doctor.
The audio stopped him from putting on his jacket since nobody usually called him.
He guessed something bad happened and waited.
But then the audio began and the man’s voice echoed in the hallway.
Yoosung observed you and waited for you to answer the man, but of course you couldn’t.
Instead, you began to laugh loudly.
,,I don’t think that’s funny, Mc! Who was that?! Who is it?!’’ he hissed and wanted to grab your phone.
He quickly realized, however, that this was TikTok.
,,You-’’ Yoosung suddenly began to sniff.
,,You pranked me!’’ he began to sob.
,,WHY ARE YOU CRYING?’’ you laughed a bit harder.
,,I PANICKED FOR A SECOND AND- YOU’RE SO MEAN!’’
Luckily he wasn’t angry at all, but he made sure to get revenge on you with another trend...
Jaehee
Okay, Jaehee was a bit harder, I thought about leaving her out
You wondered why, but Jaehee still didn’t have a TikTok even though Zen used the app for all kinds of challenges.
But since you had it and you were crazy about it, you knew every sound by memory now.
One day you came over the ,,Hey what’s good Shortie’’ audio and just loved the reaction of the partners.
And so, you thought about doing the same to Jaehee.
Although, she would probably notice that this was fake.
But nonetheless, you used the sound while she was cleaning the kitchen.
,,Yo what’s good Shortie, is your man still around?’’
As soon as the sound ended, you could hear how Jaehee stopped her cleaning session and came over to you.
,,Mc, did you tell anyone that I am a man?’’ she asked you.
You couldn’t hold it in anymore and began to laugh hysterically, shaking your head and showing her the video you took.
,,I don’t understand why you like this dumb app so much!’’ she hissed at you.
It didn’t take long until you showed her all kinds of videos and made her obsessed with it too.
,,Jaehee, the kitchen...shouldn’t you finish?’’
,,As punishment, you can finish cleaning it while I spam Zen with likes, thank you.’’
Saeyoung
Handling two accounts on TikTok wasn’t difficult.
Instead, it was super easy for both of you.
You and your future husband were quite famous as ,,The Herotic Duo + Saeran“
Of course, Saeyoung felt bad leaving his brother out so he added him, filming some pranks together.
Saeran, however, was quite special on the account so he didn’t appear often.
But the both of you pranked each other regularly with one of the extra phones Saeyoung had.
One day you saw on your own phone and your normal account, that one famous prank everyone was doing.
You decided to do it too and upload it live on your shared account.
One tap on the screen of your phone and the sound began.
,,Yo what’s good Shortie, is your man still around?“
,,Tell him that I am here and that he can come. He can videotape us while I show him that you are mine!’’ Saeyoung told you and turned towards you.
,,SAEYOUNG CHOI, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING?!’’ you laughed, trying to cut the live on TikTok
,,WELL YOU PLAYED A PRANK ON ME!’’ he yelled back and approached you, hugging you tightly.
What you didn’t notice, was that you never actually cut the live.
And so, while your fandom kept staring at the wall, you and your fiancé kept kissing passionately...

Caught in his web, Chapter 47
Loki rushed through to the front door, he was about to chuck on his jacket to go and look for Chloe when suddenly the door opened and in she walked, with Bear and Ben.
‘Thank god. I was starting to worry something had happened to you.’ Loki said, relieved.
‘Huh? I bumped into Ben at the shop and he gave us a lift, we stopped at the park on the way back to give Bear a good run so he would be tired out during dinner.’ She motioned to the tired pup in her arms, who was starting to get too heavy to carry.
Loki cupped the back of her head and kissed her forehead. ‘Let me get him settled then. You start dinner, if you’re sure you’re still wanting to cook? We can easily get takeaway.’
‘Not at all.’ Chloe passed Bear to him then grabbed her shopping bags and rushed to the kitchen to get started on dinner.
‘Sorry if you thought I’d stolen your girl.’ Ben teased and patted Loki on the shoulder.
‘I didn’t even know you were with her. It is unusual for you to be late.’ Loki chuckled. ‘Besides, you’re ugly. She would never leave me for you.’ He grinned.
‘Oi!’
Loki got Bear settled now he was tired out, making sure he had enough water and there was nothing lying around that he could chew. Though he was turning out to be a pretty good pup, mainly chewed his own toys. Enjoyed stealing socks, but apart from that was rather well-behaved for his age.
He then went and poured them all some drinks in the kitchen and loitered around while Chloe cooked.
‘What business do we need to discuss tonight?’ Ben asked, taking a sip of his drink.
Loki opened his mouth to reply but before he could, Chloe butted in. ‘No business talk tonight!’
Loki grinned and tilted his head towards her. ‘Of course, darling.’
Ben scoffed. ‘You are so pussy whipped.’
Loki slapped his ear in retaliation, but he heard Chloe sniggering and glared over at her, catching her eye he raised an eyebrow at her, making her giggle as she turned her back on them.
Chloe knew David reasonably well since he was Loki’s closest friend and associate. So she was relaxed with him around. Ben, she had only met a few times. But he seemed nice enough, so she didn’t take long at all to relax this evening. Especially with the wine she was drinking, it helped a lot.
The guys loved the pasta, as expected. Chloe felt rather smug with how clean all their plates were. She was going to have to try another dish sometime though, she thought.
It was good getting to know Ben. He had some funny stories about Loki, too. Since he’d known him for a few years. And he was in love with Bear, as was everyone, he was mingling around under the table, hoping to get food.
‘Chloe.’ Loki said in warning, noticing that she was sneaking Bear a tiny bit of chicken she’d left especially for him.
‘What?’ She asked innocently, quickly dropping the chicken for him.
‘You’ll teach him bad manners.’ He folded his arms over his chest and leaned back.
Chloe shrugged and scratched Bear’s ears. ‘He’s a smart puppy, deserves a little treat now and then.’
‘It’s like dealing with two kids.’ Loki face-palmed, the other two men laughed.
Chloe stuck her tongue out playfully at Loki, making him narrow his eyes at her. But he smirked.
‘How is your fashion course at college going?’ David asked when they retired to the living room for a comfy seat, to have a few more drinks.
‘It’s going really well. Next month I’m doing a placement with a fashion magazine for two weeks, the college organised it. Learn about what they look for in latest trends, photo shoots and stuff. I can’t wait.’ Her face lit up excitedly.
‘Wow, that sounds fantastic! Are you hoping to set up your own fashion line one day?’ He asked.
‘Yep, that’s the ultimate dream. Or work for a really talented designer, if I can’t do my own.’
‘If you work hard, I am sure you can achieve anything.’ Ben smiled. ‘I actually have a few contacts within the fashion business. I’ll see if I can pull a few strings for you.’
‘Really? That would be great, thank you.’
Loki gave her side a squeeze, he was sat right next to her with his arm around her. He was pleased that she was excited about her future. And it was warming that his colleagues were keen to help her out. They knew how much she meant to him now.
Chloe was a little bit tipsy when they decided to call it a night. Ben and David left, getting quick last cuddles from Bear before leaving of course.
Loki made good on his promise of granting Chloe with orgasms when they got to bed. But he also had something else in store that she wasn’t entirely sure about…
After going down on her for near half an hour, bringing her to multiple mind-blowing orgasms that almost had her screaming the whole house down, he flipped her over and started giving attention to her asshole.
She heard the familiar click of the lube lid opening, then she felt his finger prodding about there. She buried her face into the pillow, still taking a moment at first to adjust to the intrusion there.
‘Keep your ass up.’ Loki said, tapping her bum.
She whined and tried to raise it up high enough for him as one finger plunged into her. Then he added a second once he had her a bit more prepared.
‘I’ve been preparing this lovely ass of yours for a while now.’ He hummed, wiggling his fingers about inside her, making her gasp. ‘I think it’s time to finally fuck you in this lovely tight hole. Don’t you think, doll?’
Her head flew up and she tried to move away, Loki held onto her hip firmly and dug his fingers in. ‘Chloe.’ He warned. ‘Behave and stay still. Or I will tie you to the bed.’
Chloe whined, knowing he would do exactly that. But it didn’t stop her from panicking, it was one thing taking his fingers or a butt plug, even though he had been giving her bigger and bigger ones… But it was going to be something completely different having his cock shoved up her ass!
Once he was happy with the fact she was calm again, he let go of her hip and used that hand to work her up more, stimulating her clit and thrusting two fingers in to curl against her g spot. She was still nice and soaking wet from when he’d gone down on her.
‘Be gentle. Please.’ She whimpered, gripping the pillow.
‘Of course, doll. I’ll always look after you.’ He purred, squeezing her bum softly.
He quickly lubed up his hard cock, he was already raring to go. Very excited to plunder into that virgin ass of hers.
But when he pressed the tip against her and started pushing in, even with all the lube and preparing she’d had before it still wasn’t enough for the sheer size of his invasion.
‘No! Stop! Too big!’ She cried and dropped her hips down so his tip fell out of her.
‘Chloe.’ He snarled and grabbed her hips tightly, hauling her back up. He started pressing back into her, but she tried to scramble forwards away from him.
‘Enough!’ He leaned over her more and wrapped an arm around her middle to hold her still and his other hand went around her neck, squeezing in warning.
‘Loki… Please don’t… It’s too big.’ She whimpered as he slowly forced inch by glorious inch further into her. Forcefully spreading her wide open.
He pressed his lips to her ear, hand still firmly around her neck as he kept pushing in. But he did slide his hand from her middle down between her thighs to stroke her clit, making her whimper and accept him a tiny bit easier as she became distracted with the pleasure and also his words.
‘You will take me. I own you, doll. Never forget that. That means every orifice of yours is mine. And I will plunder whatever one I wish to.’ He growled sinisterly.
Whilst Chloe liked the feeling as he stroked her clit, she really didn’t like the way his cock felt inside her ass. It was far too big, stretching her like mad. Even with all the lube he’d used, it still didn’t feel like it was going in easily.
She buried her face into the pillow, sobbing softly in confusion at the pleasure and pain as he started fucking her ass. It was also a stark reminder that even though Loki claimed to love her, and she loved him, he would still make her do things she didn’t want to do.
He was the one with complete control over her. And her body certainly didn’t belong to her.

Finding You (Part Two of ??)
Hello again! I'm back with the second installment of my new series, Finding You, which was previously Untitled. If you want to be tagged when I update this series, just comment below :)
Part One Link
In this part, we finally get to Satan and what he's been doing during all this. It's not really a happy chapter. You have been warned.
I think it's important to note that I am American. In this part, there is a funeral. Since I don't know much about other cultures or religions way of holding funerals, I just wrote what I know (and that's very little actually. I've only been to two full funerals. I’d be happy to answer any questions you might have). Feel free to change the story up in your head to match your own funerary customs.
As always, likes and reblogs are greatly appreciated and help me endure the torture that is typing up this story from my notebook 😒 I also tried to make sure the editing on here was good. Any DM's for typos or things that didn't make sense are appreciated so I can fix them (please be kind though 🙂 ). I did write some of the funeral disjointed on purpose, trying to recreate how I was feeling when I attended the funerals I did.
Tags (for you lovely people <3 ): @obey-me-trashshshshsh, @naimena
F! MC/ Satan
Word count: 3,195
Warnings/triggers: ANGST!, description of funeral, loosing someone dear to you, some violence at the end though nothing too graphic (he is the avatar of wrath after all)
Satan had felt when Mc died. His pact mark had begun to glow and heat up. A terrible rending feeling in his chest, then… Nothing. He couldn’t move, fear completely paralyzing him. No, it couldn’t be…
Then he heard Mammon scream. Then Asmo. Then Levi. Soon, the whole House of Lamentation was filled with wailing. Satan scrambled for his D.D.D, hurriedly dialing Mc. No, no, no, no, no. He had just talked to her. She’d been fine.
“Hi! This is Mc. I can’t get to the phone-”
“No… No, no, no, NO!” Satan screamed, throwing his phone at the wall. Satan sunk to his knees in a sobbing heap.
The brothers never got an answer to what exactly had happened to Mc. Diavolo had confirmed she had passed, but he couldn’t get any details since she hadn’t been sent to the Devildom. He had managed to find out when and where the funeral would be, if they wanted to go. They would only be able to attend the graveside service though, since the viewing was being held in a church.
Each brother attended the graveside service. Satan stood stoically as the casket was brought out of the hearse. He was wondering if he would be able to get Asmo to charm everyone in attendance so he’d be able to see her face one last time, when he felt his brothers all shifting around uncomfortably. He realized the religious figure he’d tuned out was quoting scripture at the congregation, promises that Mc was now in the hands of God. He decided to tune him out again. Then the casket was being lowered. He had to be physically restrained from going out and pulling her out as the first fistfuls of dirt were being thrown on the casket. How could they do that to her? A voice murmured a reminder that she was gone, and they were just saying goodbye. Well, he needed to say goodbye too. Maybe that wasn’t such a good idea.
Next thing Satan knew, he was at the corner of the grave, a flower he’d had a death grip on since they had started out from the Devildom in his hand. Her favorite. A shiny wood box met his eyes from 6 feet below. Was she really there? He couldn’t feel her presence from his pact mark. Where was she? When was he going to wake up?
The other demon lords watched their brother loose the fight with his emotions. He sobbed, falling on his haunches. Six hands found a part of Satan to touch, tears in their eyes as well.
“It’s time ta let ‘er go,” Mammon’s stuffy voice came from next to him. Satan looked over to find Mammon had removed his sunglasses. His eyes and face were wet.
“I… I don’t think I can,” Satan stated, tears falling freely.
“I know. I know,” Mammon said, pulling his brother in for a hug. Each of the rest of the brothers joined in the hug, pulling the fourth and second born up with them. After a bit, they all let go, moving forward to give Mc their own token and say their last words. When Belphie had finished, Lucifer put his hand on Satan’s shoulder.
“Mc’s waiting for her flower,” Lucifer said, gesturing towards the grave. Satan nodded, and walked forward. He fiddled with the stem for a second, trying to find the words to say, “Mc… Huh, I don’t actually know what to say… I guess, I… I thought I’d find some way to be with you forever. I never thought… I’ve never felt anything like you before Mc, and I don’t think I ever will again… Please… Please, if it’s possible, come back to me. Please,” he uttered as he dropped the flower onto the casket, and walked back to his brothers. He knew everyone was looking at him, confused and curious through their sorrow. They all stayed until the end of the funeral, when Satan turned to Lucifer, “I think it might be time to go.”
“If you’re sure, that would probably be the smartest course of action,” Lucifer nodded, the humans looking questioningly at the demons. The religious man from earlier was actually making his way towards them.
“I’ll visit her later when there aren’t so many people around,” Satan stated as he started walking. The brothers exchanged looks before following him.
The next couple months were quiet at the House of Lamentation. The brothers did the bare minimum required to keep the household going. They were all absent from RAD and Lucifer even took some time off from the endless amount of paperwork he usually did, to grieve. Mc may have been dating Satan, but the rest of the brothers loved her too, and missed her greatly. The only time the brother’s saw Satan was when he was raiding the fridge, finally giving into his stomach pleading for food. He still managed to look somewhat put together, though his eyes were dead and haunted. He had retreated so far into his mind if one of them managed to get him to acknowledge their presence they counted it as a win. He was a shell of himself, and everyone was worried.
Time marches on though, and life slowly returned to normal. One day, Lucifer had gone to RAD and come home with some random paperwork that needed to be done. Another, Asmo was going out to update his wardrobe because his was terribly behind the trends. Each brother found their own way of coping. Beel eventually asked if they could all have family dinner again. They all actually made an appearance, though Satan left once he was done eating.
Though he wasn’t doing well, Satan had been visiting Mc’s grave at least once a week if not more. Lucifer had granted him access to the portal indefinitely, a gesture of kindness that did not go unnoticed. At first he just cried quietly at her grave, not able to produce a coherent sentence. It slowly evolved into him reading her her favorite books or some snatch of poetry that reminded him of her. Eventually he was able to talk freely as he once had. Sometimes it was a mixture of the three. His brothers never saw him cry though. Since Mc had been the only one that seemed to truly understand his feelings, she was the only one allowed to see him cry. Through this self therapy, Satan started to heal. He started sitting in the common room with his brothers in the evening, or snorting at some joke that had been thrown around the table at dinner.
As the years passed, Satan would still visit Mc’s grave, though the frequency dropped. He slowly learned to deal with his sorrow, just like he had with love when he’d first fallen for Mc. It was much harder, his wrath often informing his depression. She became his support again, even if she wasn’t able to respond to help him through his feelings. He always visited on her birthday, bringing her a bouquet of flowers and some small piece of literature, art or playing her some music.
One year, while reading her some Shakespeare, someone came up behind him, “She appreciates it. I know she does.”
Satan stopped reading instantly, whipping around to see a woman who looked quite a lot like Mc, “Excuse me?”
“Coming to see her every year. You have great taste in art by the way,” the woman said, sitting down besides Satan, looking fondly but sadly at the headstone.
“Um, thank you. May I ask who you are?”
“Only if I can ask you the same thing,” the woman responded, smiling at him wryly. The look was so similar to one Mc would give him, he found himself instantly trusting this woman, “I’m S… Stan,” he answered, giving the nickname Mc come up with, when he had asked if he’d ever be able to meet her family. She’d laughed when she'd thought of it, saying she could never introduce him as Satan.
“Stan? I was wondering. She met you when she took that trip out of the country right?”
“Yeah… Did she tell you about me?”
“Oh, you want me to remember that far back? Hmm… I seem to remember her talking about how smart you are, “She chuckled, her eyes far away, “I remember one time, I went in to talk to her and she was furiously reading some book. When I asked what she was reading she told me she couldn’t talk to me right then, needing to catch up to where you were in the story. It was a silly little moment, but she looked so determined… I do know she was in love with you. Though she only really told me about you shortly before she died, I remember the look in her eyes when she talked about you. Telling me about how drawn she was the moment she laid eyes on you. You know what a romantic she was. As her Mother, you can guess how excited I was to meet you, especially after watching her get her heart broken before... You’re exactly her type, you know. Tall, blonde, smart. She was even thinking of introducing you to us. Then it happened.”
Satan didn’t realize the tears were flowing until she looked over and wiped a tear away. She continued, “I was disappointed when I didn’t see anyone that matched your description during the viewing. I don't know what kept you, but I am glad you made it for the casket lowering. I was surprised to see your brothers though, if that's who they were. You all look so different… Anyways, I’m sure she would've loved the intrigue you brought to her service. A handsome stranger, distraught at the thought of life without her. She always did love big, dramatic displays of affection.”
“You remember me from the funeral?”
“Who could forget? It became a topic of conversation in our family once we could all talk about her without crying. Who was that blonde guy? Why wasn’t he at the viewing? Who were the other men he was with? Did she secretly get married while she was out of the country? So many theories, each one more ludicrous then the last. It seems her best friend and I were the only ones to connect the dots as to your identity.”
“Ah. I’m a little embarrassed now,” Satan admitted sheepishly.
“Don’t be. I was extremely bitter after the funeral for a long time. How could my beautiful daughter be taken away from me? Parents were never meant to outlive their kids. I’ve never understood the reason people take photographs at funerals. Most of the time, there’s so much makeup caked onto the body they’re almost unrecognizable. There’s a photo of you from the funeral I actually saved though. You’re looking at the casket with such a look of longing and loss, just waiting for her to come back to you. That photo actually brought me a lot of peace after she was gone. Your look perfectly encapsulated how I felt at the time. It also helped me to know she was able to know that much love before she left. I never want you to feel embarrassed for showing that kind of love to my daughter.”
" She is and always will be the only one for me.”
Mc’s mother laughed, “Oh, you’re still young and quite handsome. You’ll find someone else. In fact, you don’t look like you’ve aged a day from the first time I saw you. You must’ve made some kind of deal with the devil,” she joked.
“Ah. Very funny. Yes. A deal with the devil. Haha.”
Mc's mother looked at him, slightly concerned, "Well, it seems I've made things awkward. I’ll leave you two alone now.”
“Oh, that’s okay. You don’t have to leave on my behalf,” Satan protested.
“It’s alright. I live close by, and I come and visit fairly often. Maybe I’ll see you around sometime. Good night, Stan”
“Good night, and… thank you.”
Mc’s mother smiled at him and walked away.
“Well, Mc, I guess I have your mother’s approval now,” Satan joked, turning back to his Shakespeare.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Remind me why we’re here again,” Satan said, only slightly interested in the antics Mammon was trying to drag him into.
“Tryin’ to get some sucker… er, customer ta part with their Grimm, obviously,” Mammon explained, leaning back in his chair and turning to face Satan and Belphie.
“What does that have to do with us?” Belphie mumbled, eyes more closed than open.
“Well, everythin’! You two are super smart, so I need ya ta…” As Mammon continued talking, Satan wondered, not for the first time, if Mammon actually ever intended to make money with his schemes, or if he had simply found a way to work through his sin without causing too many problems. He had to understand how likely his plans were to fail… Right?
A bump on his shoulder announced Belphie had fallen asleep. Since Mc had helped him work through some of the trauma he had held onto since Lilith’s death, Belphie had gotten comfortable with his brothers again, growing especially close with Satan, their mutual dislike of Lucifer giving them something to bond over. When Mc had died, Satan had found Belphie to be the most supportive of his brothers. Though they'll lost had lost Lilith, Satan had found Belphie the most sympathetic to what he was going through.
“Oi! Listen when I’m talkin’ ta ya! Ya both younger than me, so you shouldn't really show me more respect.”
Belphie lifted his head, and rolled his eyes, “Mammon, do you really want me to do you a favor? How about this? Maybe, don’t explain how you’re going to con people in front of those you want to con.”
Mammon looked around worriedly, finally noticing the glares he was getting, before rounding on Belphie, “I was just explainin’ the plan ta ya and Satan cuz ya both asked again! If ya didn’ wan’ an explanation, ya shouldn’ have asked!”
Belphie was about to retort, when he got a self satisfying smirk, “Oh, dearest big brother, looks like you’ve got your first customer.”
Mammon went pale, turning around slowly to find a demon about as tall as Lucifer staring Mammon down, obviously angry.
Very interested in how Mammon was going to worm his way out of this one, Satan turned to say something to Belphie when he caught sight of a familiar hat.
“Belphie, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn’t that Luke?”
“Hmm? You mean the chihuahua?... Oh, I think it is. Why do you suppose he’s here? I never heard we were getting any visitor."
"It's a little terrifying just how much you know. You're like Asmo that way."
"It's not my fault everyone just assumes I'm sleeping while they're talking."
"Belphie, you know enough, I think you store information while you're asleep."
"Huh… I'd never thought of that before… Who’s that other angel with him?”
“I don’t know… She kinda looks familiar though, don’t you think?”
Belphie looked over at him, arching an eyebrow, “Do you know any angels younger than Luke?”
“Well, no, but… She just looks so familiar.”
“I guess… Hey, you’re missing Mammon squirm.”
“You watch and enjoy. I’m going to go talk to them,” Satan said, clearly distracted, as he got up out of his seat.
“Where do you think you’re going?” a large body planted itself in front of Satan. The demon was tall, but so was Satan. He was able to look him right in the eyes.
“What’s it to you?”
“You’re with the guy that was going to scam us right?”
“You were actually going to fall for his scheme? Really? Well, the first step to getting the help you need is admitting you have a problem. Now, move. I’ve got places to be.”
“Not so fast Princess. You’re not getting away that easy,” the demon put out his hand and grabbed Satan’s shirt.
Satan looked down at the offending hand, and then at the demon, his horns already starting to sprout, “I’d suggest you unhand me if you want to keep your kneecaps.”
The demon laughed, a cocky smile on his face, “Ya think just cuz you’re an elite ya can take me? What makes you so special huh? Ya just think ya so great, just because ya pretty. Am I right?”
The rest of Satan’s demon form appeared, his eyes glowing, a menacing aura surrounding him, “No. I know I can take you because I’m the Avatar of Wrath. Maybe, if you weren’t such a dunce you’d have noticed that,” and with that Satan grabbed his hand in a bone crushing grip. The demon started yowling, trying to twist out of his grasp. It only made Satan increase the pressure. He leaned in right next to the demon’s ear, “Next time you pick a fight, understand who you’re dealing with first.”
He swept the demon’s legs out from under him, and put him in a wrist lock submission hold. The demon was now yelling for mercy, desperately trying to break Satan’s hold. Satan looked around to see if he could still see Luke, but realized quickly that wasn’t going to be possible. Both of his brother’s were currently dismantling whatever demon had decided to pick a fight with them. The rest of the area had erupted into chaos, most demon’s running away. No one wanted to be around when one of the Avatar’s were fighting, much less three! A couple idiots were trying to get in on their fight though.
Sighing, Satan leaned down again, “Well, well, well. Looks like you’re losing your kneecaps today.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Satan muttered to himself, picking up bits of trash that had been left by the fleeing demons. Because of his involvement in the fight, he had to clean up the entire park. Trying to explain to Lucifer he'd been trying to walk away apparently didn't help when you'd put five demons in the hospital before he'd shown up to stop you.
“Well, Lucifer, if you could’ve just kept your cool, you’d still be prancing around with Simeon and Michael up in the Celestial Realm, making friendship bracelets, painting each other little rocks and braiding each other’s hair as you giggle about how… Huh?” Satan crouched down, noticing a small foot peeking out from a pile of leaves. Moving around to the other side of the pile, he saw it was the small angel that had been with Luke.
Up close, the feeling he'd met her before was even stronger. She looked so familiar, but he knew he’d never seen her before. The youngest angel he’d ever met was Luke. Maybe she was from the foggy memories of Lucifer’s he still had? That was forever ago though. She should've grown up quite a bit by now...
His musings were interrupted as the small angel moving. She winced as she sat up, holding her head, “Wha… What happened? Luke? Where are you?, then noticing Satan, “Oh, hello there. I’m sorry, but could you help me find my big brother?”

Caught in his web, Chapter 47
TITLE: Caught in his web CHAPTER NO./ONE SHOT: Chapter 47 AUTHOR: fanficshiddles ORIGINAL IMAGINE: Imagine Loki is a crime lord, a very dangerous man in the city. He is owed money, but the man is unable to pay Loki back, so Loki takes his daughter as payment instead. RATING: M
Loki rushed through to the front door, he was about to chuck on his jacket to go and look for Chloe when suddenly the door opened and in she walked, with Bear and Ben.
‘Thank god. I was starting to worry something had happened to you.’ Loki said, relieved.
‘Huh? I bumped into Ben at the shop and he gave us a lift, we stopped at the park on the way back to give Bear a good run so he would be tired out during dinner.’ She motioned to the tired pup in her arms, who was starting to get too heavy to carry.
Loki cupped the back of her head and kissed her forehead. ‘Let me get him settled then. You start dinner, if you’re sure you’re still wanting to cook? We can easily get takeaway.’
‘Not at all.’ Chloe passed Bear to him then grabbed her shopping bags and rushed to the kitchen to get started on dinner.
‘Sorry if you thought I’d stolen your girl.’ Ben teased and patted Loki on the shoulder.
‘I didn’t even know you were with her. It is unusual for you to be late.’ Loki chuckled. ‘Besides, you’re ugly. She would never leave me for you.’ He grinned.
‘Oi!’
Loki got Bear settled now he was tired out, making sure he had enough water and there was nothing lying around that he could chew. Though he was turning out to be a pretty good pup, mainly chewed his own toys. Enjoyed stealing socks, but apart from that was rather well-behaved for his age.
He then went and poured them all some drinks in the kitchen and loitered around while Chloe cooked.
‘What business do we need to discuss tonight?’ Ben asked, taking a sip of his drink.
Loki opened his mouth to reply but before he could, Chloe butted in. ‘No business talk tonight!’
Loki grinned and tilted his head towards her. ‘Of course, darling.’
Ben scoffed. ‘You are so pussy whipped.’
Loki slapped his ear in retaliation, but he heard Chloe sniggering and glared over at her, catching her eye he raised an eyebrow at her, making her giggle as she turned her back on them.
Chloe knew David reasonably well since he was Loki’s closest friend and associate. So she was relaxed with him around. Ben, she had only met a few times. But he seemed nice enough, so she didn’t take long at all to relax this evening. Especially with the wine she was drinking, it helped a lot.
The guys loved the pasta, as expected. Chloe felt rather smug with how clean all their plates were. She was going to have to try another dish sometime though, she thought.
It was good getting to know Ben. He had some funny stories about Loki, too. Since he’d known him for a few years. And he was in love with Bear, as was everyone, he was mingling around under the table, hoping to get food.
‘Chloe.’ Loki said in warning, noticing that she was sneaking Bear a tiny bit of chicken she’d left especially for him.
‘What?’ She asked innocently, quickly dropping the chicken for him.
‘You’ll teach him bad manners.’ He folded his arms over his chest and leaned back.
Chloe shrugged and scratched Bear’s ears. ‘He’s a smart puppy, deserves a little treat now and then.’
‘It’s like dealing with two kids.’ Loki face-palmed, the other two men laughed.
Chloe stuck her tongue out playfully at Loki, making him narrow his eyes at her. But he smirked.
‘How is your fashion course at college going?’ David asked when they retired to the living room for a comfy seat, to have a few more drinks.
‘It’s going really well. Next month I’m doing a placement with a fashion magazine for two weeks, the college organised it. Learn about what they look for in latest trends, photo shoots and stuff. I can’t wait.’ Her face lit up excitedly.
‘Wow, that sounds fantastic! Are you hoping to set up your own fashion line one day?’ He asked.
‘Yep, that’s the ultimate dream. Or work for a really talented designer, if I can’t do my own.’
‘If you work hard, I am sure you can achieve anything.’ Ben smiled. ‘I actually have a few contacts within the fashion business. I’ll see if I can pull a few strings for you.’
‘Really? That would be great, thank you.’
Loki gave her side a squeeze, he was sat right next to her with his arm around her. He was pleased that she was excited about her future. And it was warming that his colleagues were keen to help her out. They knew how much she meant to him now.
Chloe was a little bit tipsy when they decided to call it a night. Ben and David left, getting quick last cuddles from Bear before leaving of course.
Loki made good on his promise of granting Chloe with orgasms when they got to bed. But he also had something else in store that she wasn’t entirely sure about…
After going down on her for near half an hour, bringing her to multiple mind-blowing orgasms that almost had her screaming the whole house down, he flipped her over and started giving attention to her asshole.
She heard the familiar click of the lube lid opening, then she felt his finger prodding about there. She buried her face into the pillow, still taking a moment at first to adjust to the intrusion there.
‘Keep your ass up.’ Loki said, tapping her bum.
She whined and tried to raise it up high enough for him as one finger plunged into her. Then he added a second once he had her a bit more prepared.
‘I’ve been preparing this lovely ass of yours for a while now.’ He hummed, wiggling his fingers about inside her, making her gasp. ‘I think it’s time to finally fuck you in this lovely tight hole. Don’t you think, doll?’
Her head flew up and she tried to move away, Loki held onto her hip firmly and dug his fingers in. ‘Chloe.’ He warned. ‘Behave and stay still. Or I will tie you to the bed.’
Chloe whined, knowing he would do exactly that. But it didn’t stop her from panicking, it was one thing taking his fingers or a butt plug, even though he had been giving her bigger and bigger ones… But it was going to be something completely different having his cock shoved up her ass!
Once he was happy with the fact she was calm again, he let go of her hip and used that hand to work her up more, stimulating her clit and thrusting two fingers in to curl against her g spot. She was still nice and soaking wet from when he’d gone down on her.
‘Be gentle. Please.’ She whimpered, gripping the pillow.
‘Of course, doll. I’ll always look after you.’ He purred, squeezing her bum softly.
He quickly lubed up his hard cock, he was already raring to go. Very excited to plunder into that virgin ass of hers.
But when he pressed the tip against her and started pushing in, even with all the lube and preparing she’d had before it still wasn’t enough for the sheer size of his invasion.
‘No! Stop! Too big!’ She cried and dropped her hips down so his tip fell out of her.
‘Chloe.’ He snarled and grabbed her hips tightly, hauling her back up. He started pressing back into her, but she tried to scramble forwards away from him.
‘Enough!’ He leaned over her more and wrapped an arm around her middle to hold her still and his other hand went around her neck, squeezing in warning.
‘Loki… Please don’t… It’s too big.’ She whimpered as he slowly forced inch by glorious inch further into her. Forcefully spreading her wide open.
He pressed his lips to her ear, hand still firmly around her neck as he kept pushing in. But he did slide his hand from her middle down between her thighs to stroke her clit, making her whimper and accept him a tiny bit easier as she became distracted with the pleasure and also his words.
‘You will take me. I own you, doll. Never forget that. That means every orifice of yours is mine. And I will plunder whatever one I wish to.’ He growled sinisterly.
Whilst Chloe liked the feeling as he stroked her clit, she really didn’t like the way his cock felt inside her ass. It was far too big, stretching her like mad. Even with all the lube he’d used, it still didn’t feel like it was going in easily.
She buried her face into the pillow, sobbing softly in confusion at the pleasure and pain as he started fucking her ass. It was also a stark reminder that even though Loki claimed to love her, and she loved him, he would still make her do things she didn’t want to do.
He was the one with complete control over her. And her body certainly didn’t belong to her.

Unfinished Business
(An unfinished ficlet about 6,000 year old idiots learning how to kiss.)
Crowley drained his glass. “Have you?” he asked, punctuating his query with a blithe, “Ever?”
“Ever what?”
Aziraphale knew exactly what. And Crowley knew he knew exactly what, going by the way his eyebrows were slowly inching up his forehead like twin, fuzzy caterpillars whose souls had shuffled off this mortal coil and were beginning their ascent into the afterlife.
Aziraphale snapped his book shut as fussily as possible, which was pretty damn fussy. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said.
“You do,” Crowley rebutted.
Shit.
Aziraphale spun on his heel. He busied himself with tucking Moby Dick back where it belonged on his desk with the other Melvilles. He could feel Crowley’s gaze bore into his thoracic vertebrae while he stalled, trying and failing to soothe the heart pounding in his chest for no good reason. He flattened his palms against his lapel; a little pat-pat to make sure they were lying neatly.
“No,” Aziraphale finally admitted. Followed by a defensive, “Have you?”
“Nope.”
Oh.
Well, that was a surprise.
Azirapahle glanced at Crowley over his shoulder, assessing. Both of Crowley’s arms were akimbo on the back of the sofa, legs sprawled artfully and--dare Aziraphale think it--invitingly. His ankles crossed and the gleam of his snakeskin boots lambent in the dim light of Azirapahle’s shop.
“I thought that sort of thing was…” Aziraphale twiddled his fingers in an approximation of something or nothing at all. “...a part of your lot’s milieu.”
“I don’t have a lot. Neither do you.”
“You know what I mean.”
Crowley smirked. “I rather thought kissssing was more of a heavenly affair.” He tilted his head to one side. “Love...” he drawled with a curl of his lip, like the very word was in itself divine, and perhaps it was. “...’n all.”
“Ah.” He had a point. But...
“You don’t have to kiss someone to have sex with them, angel.”
Aziraphale could feel himself turning red. The avatar of his body was betraying him altogether. “I-I know that!” (He hadn’t.) “Sex isn’t always governed by lust, you know.”
“Mmm, was never really my thing.”
Aziraphale blinked.
“Lust,” Crowley specified.
Aziraphale blinked again.
“Icky.” Crowley smacked his lips, frowning. “Humans. They leave gobs of themselves everywhere. All those fluids and hair and skin!”
“You’re a snake,” Aziraphale reminded him, exasperated.
“Well, yeah. But that’s…” Crowley shrugged. “...snakey, innit?”
Aziraphale rolled his eyes.
Crowley sprang to his feet. He jabbed a finger at Aziraphale, a devilish lilt to his voice when he crooned, “You’re curious.”
“I am not!” Aziraphale lied. Badly. He scampered away, collecting a stack of books from one organized mess and sorted them into another organized mess on the other side of the room.
Crowley trailed along behind him with his hands stuffed in his pockets. Or as stuffed as they could be in his tight, leather trousers. He followed Aziraphale from one shelf to the next, twisting and turning around a pillar here, a marble bust there, more and more amused by Aziraphale’s bluster and fluster. “You are!” he sing-songed. “I saw you making goo-goo eyes at the lovebirds in the park.”
Aziraphale blanched. He tripped over a step ladder he never really used anyway. Stupid. Why did he even own such a thing? It wasn’t like he needed it. “I was making eyes, as you so eloquently put it, at the love they were emanating, not--” He tripped again. This time into an entire bookcase, which was something he needed. So focused was he on preventing the impending avalanche, Crowley effectively trapped him against the shelves by the cunning use of what Aziraphale knew to be called leaning.
“Oh, dear,” he murmured.
Crowley watched him avert his eyes to the ceiling, the floor, and back again. He waited until Aziraphale deigned to look at him. Approximately one minute and ten seconds, which wasn’t that long in the great scheme of things, but a rather ridiculous amount of time not to look at the person standing in front of you. “Do you trust me?” Crowley asked when their eyes finally met.
Aziraphale was offended. Did he trust Crowley? Of course he trusted him! A thousand times--six thousand times--yes! Aziraphale meant to say as much, but ended up squawking instead. And that was rather embarrassing. So he nodded. But he wasn’t happy about it.
“Say it.” A flash of teeth. Equal parts commanding and pleading, which must have inadvertently spirited all the oxygen out of the room because it was suddenly difficult to breathe. And necessary, besides.
Aziraphale swallowed thickly. “Yes.”
Crowley edged closer. Invading his personal space. Not that he’d never done that before. Personal space was all very relative to beings who can will themselves as small as a microbe at any given moment. But still. Right then and there, the air between them hot and humid, it was quite invasive.
One beat.
Two.
Neither of them moved.
“Alright?” Aziraphale asked, tentative.
“Yeah--no--” Crowley stammered. He cleared his throat. “I’m fine. Fine. Are you…um...?”
“Fine?”
“Fine, yes.”
“Yes.”
This was absurd.
“You started it,” Aziraphale mumbled.
“I--no--nyrk--look! You wanna do this or not?”
Aziraphale pursed his lips. “I suppose. If it’s you.”
“Right. Okay, then.” Crowley bullied himself flush against Aziraphale’s chest.
They were nose to nose. Still familiar territory. They regarded each other, a little cross-eyed, and Crowley pivoted ever so slightly to his left so their noses not only touched at their tips, but slotted side by side. Which was very much new. And nice. Soft and warm and they could feel each other’s pulses hammering away uselessly, but somehow unavoidably.
Aziraphale shut his eyes. He wanted to see, but Crowley’s features had gone all blurry. He wasn’t sure he could will his vision to adjust because are those Crowley’s hands on his waist? He licked his lips, nervous, and made the most outrageous yelp when the tip of his tongue met flesh and sweet Jesus and his barefoot apostles.
Aziraphale had sampled the most exorbitant wine, the most delectable foods the Earth has to offer. No fruit, fermented or otherwise, compared to the brief taste of Crowley’s lip. Whichever one it had been. Sweet and firm and delicious.
“Sorry,” Azirapahle gasped. It had been an accident even though he liked it.
“No, it’s…” Crowley’s hands kneaded fretfully against his waistcoat. “...do it again.”
“Okay.” Aziraphale stuck out his tongue. A bit shy. A bit overwhelmed. A bit what-the-Hell. And so he probed, just there, and licked with unrestrained indulgence.
Crowley’s spine went ramrod straight. “Aziraphale,” he spoke the angel’s name like a benediction. And then, “Aziraphale!” Scandalized. Delighted.
Aziraphale squinted open one of his eyes. Then the other. “Did I do it right?”
Crowley had the most annoying and sinfully crooked smile on his face. “You made an Effort!”
“Oh.” Aziraphale sighed irritably. “I had to!”
Crowley was looking at him the exact same way he did when Aziraphale told him he’d given his flaming sword away six thousand years ago.
“The fit of my trousers just wouldn’t do without the Effort, dear.”
Crowley blatantly stared at Aziraphale’s crotch. “Is it functional?”
“Not sure, really.”
Crowley gawked at him.
“It’s simply for aesthetics, mind you. Would you rather I didn’t…?”
“What? I--no--of course! It’s--it’s fine, yes.”
“Do you have…?”
“Sometimes.”
“Is yours functional?”
“Sometimes.”
Aziraphale was pretty sure he was Falling because his veins felt like they were on fire.
“Would you rather I didn’t?”
“It’s fine.”
“Good. Shall we?” Crowley swooped in close without waiting for a response. Their noses knocked and their mouths pressed firmly together over their teeth, but Aziraphale’s tongue was back where it belonged and Crowley positively melted into the sensation. Sighing, sinking firmly into the spit-plush of Aziraphale’s mouth (before remembering himself), and standing back up to his full height. And, oh. That was rather delicious, that friction, their clothes rucking up and up and yes. Crowley managed to restrain himself, allowing space between their lips once again, and he reveled in the sensation of Aziraphale tonguing right where he used to have a soul patch in the 1590s. Nothing until this moment had made him want to revisit that particular facial hair trend.
“Hath ith?” Azirapahle asked.
“What?”
Regrettably, Aziraphale’s tongue retreated back into his mouth. “How’s this?”
“Great,” Crowley all but sobbed. “Keep going.”
Aziraphale didn’t have to be told twice. Not when it mattered. And his natural curiosity got the better of him. After probing the same spot with his tongue five or six or twenty times (He lost count.), he pursed his lips for just a little sip. He privately thought that Crowley never truly learned how to use his human legs, his hips the fulcrum of his languid and snaking gait. But, standing? Crowley had that down to a science. Contrapposto, mostly, a holdover from the Renaissance, his body striking an S-curve that would put The David to shame. It was an art form, really, so it came as a shock when Crowley’s knees betrayed him altogether.
Aziraphale caught him around the middle. “Are you alright?”
The question was barely posed before Crowley regained his footing and pinned him up against the bookcase hard enough to send a few volumes toppling to the floor, saved in the nick of time by a quick snap of Crowley’s fingers.
“Do that again,” he demanded, almost frantic.
If Azirapahle thought there had been no space between them before, he was sadly mistaken. Crowley nuzzled their mouths together, curtailing a desperate whine with an explosive sigh the moment Aziraphale sandwiched Crowley’s philtrum between his lips and suckled just so.
“Oooh.” Crowley almost sounded in pain. “Fuck me.”
Aziraphale pulled off Crowley’s lip with a wet pop that seriously did things to Crowley in places he didn’t even know he had. “W--really?”
“No! I mean, yes! But no. Later. Kissing now.” Crowley bit down on Aziraphale’s bottom lip and tugged. Not quite sipping, but just as good. If not better. And there was Crowley’s forked tongue drawing him in and further in. His teeth sharp in the best possible way, followed by a massive slurp that had Aziraphale’s eyes rolling back in his head before Crowley released him.
Aziraphale boggled, wide-eyed and panting. He was surely going to discorporate. “Oh, my God!”
“Don’t bring Her into this.”
Both of them glanced overhead.
No, best not to call upon the Almighty in flagrante.
“So that’s what all the fuss is about.”
“I’d say so, yeah.”
Aziraphale was on him in a flash, drinking greedily at his lips, one after the other, and Crowley absolutely refused to wait his turn nicely. Because he wasn’t. Nice, that is. Not even a little bit. That was the good thing about being a snake, he thought, unhinging his jaw just enough to devour Azirapahle’s mouth and they both moaned in unison at the feel of hot, wet heat and breath and slick and fuckfuckfuck!
A sudden gust of wind, a loud FWHUMP. The sound of a lamp smashing to the floor, maybe.
Crowley’s wings were fanned out behind him. He was gasping for breath like it was something he needed to live, fingers wound tight in Aziraphale’s coat. “Fuck,” he said.
“We need to slow down.”
Crowley snarled, “Any slower and I swear I’m going to literally explode.”

Where have I been? (a post for anyone who might still care lol)
Anyone who knows me knows I’ve taken a looooong hiatus from cosplay, but I’ve also taken a general hiatus from this blog as well. I wanted to take the time to explain some of the reasons why. Explanation below the cut.
1. Toxicity
I’ve had this blog for many, many years. It’s always been My Thing to follow back everyone. But in doing so, I’ve accidentally created a pretty decently toxic environment for myself on my own dash? It seems that wherever I scroll, there are people arguing, constant reminders of how terrible the world and society are, and people shaming other people for things they like. My once-fun dashboard of fandom and all things queer, has just become not quite fun anymore? Social justice issues are really important to me, deeply important, but constant reminders about how terrible the world is can really bring me down (particularly in these already troubling times). I know that running from it is a particularly privileged thing to be able to do (I may be pan, but I’m still white and cis), but sometimes I just gotta put myself and my own mental health first. One day I’m hoping to try to take back control of my blog and do some much needed purging, but it’s going to be a monumental task after so many years. But I really do miss reblogging fandom things. I’ve made a completely separate blog for all things Aesthetic that do nothing but make me happy—essentially creating my own little safe space. It’s been a great non-pressure, anonymous way to just de-stress, but I do miss mucking around in fandom nonsense. BUT this also brings me to another reason...
2. Supernatural and The Destiel Debacle
*spoilers ahead for the final season of SPN* That final scene with Cas absolutely destroyed me. I’m a few seasons behind, but when I woke up one morning and Destiel was trending everywhere, of course I looked up and watched the video. And guys. I SOBBED. Not just a few tears, full on WEPT for at least an hour. I was so heartbroken, not just because a beloved character died, but of how he died. The fact that Cas told Dean everything I’ve always wanted him to, but in the WORST WAY POSSIBLE, only for him to promptly die without Dean even saying anything. I just couldn’t deal. I was Properly Depressed for several days after that, and I still sometimes think about it and get really sad. I could have forgiven this, had they put Cas in the finale, gave you hope that maybe he and Dean could be something in Heaven, together, but no. Of course not. The whole thing genuinely put such a bad taste in my mouth for all fandom and network television in general. Also, it hurt me to see people actually calling this a WIN. I’m not here to take away anything from anyone—if you loved it, that’s great and I’m happy for you. But GUYS. It was CRUMBS. Is it great that Cas is a confirmed queer character? Sure, but they killed him the second his confession was over. Rowan Ellis did a great YouTube video about the whole thing, and I highly suggest you watch it, it really put things in perspective for me. The fact is, they had TWELVE YEARS to give you this, and they didn’t. It’s like Marvel expecting us to be singing their praises cuz a Russo brother mentioned a boyfriend, a few minutes out of their ENTIRE MOVIE FRANCHISE. Anyway, I was so disheartened I didn’t want to participate in fandom whatsoever. (Luckily, I’ve recently fallen in love with Black Sails—also thanks to Rowan Ellis—and its amazing writing, characters, story, and queer representation helped give me hope again).
3. Self-image
This more directly relates to cosplay. I gained weight again, and my motivation to cosplay dropped significantly. Suddenly there just didn’t seem a point to getting into all the makeup and putting in the effort if I wasn’t going to like what I saw on the webcam. Luckily, I’ve recently read a FANTASTIC book called “What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat” by Aubrey Gordon, and it was honestly life-changing. It forced me to completely reframe how I think about myself and society, and I’ve actively been making an effort to feel better and unashamed in my own skin, and it’s been going well! I’ve stopped planning my entire life and happiness and worth around whatever number I wanted the scales to reflect. But, that being said, cosplay is still a struggle for me. Though I’m generally more accepting of myself now, I still find it difficult to play my favourite characters, almost all of which are attractive males. I’m admittedly hard on myself about it, my subconscious constantly telling me that I’m not androgynous enough or sexy enough to play these characters. Of course you don’t have to be these things to cosplay, I’m a huge advocate that ANYONE can cosplay WHOEVER they want, but this is what I, personally, am going through. One step at a time, as they say!
And that’s about it. I’m not sure when I’ll be back, and I make no promises. But maybe I’ll pop in to post a gay gifset or two sometime :) I’ve also been pondering TikTok a lot, so who knows, maybe that’ll be a thing in the future. This explanation was as much for my benefit as to those reading—it feels good to get this stuff off my chest and I hope you understand. Love you all so, so much and I hope you’re all getting nothing but the best out of this hell site lol ❤️
Stay safe and stay happy, Nicki xo

Now That We’re Done - HS
All Parts: HERE
Summary: A twenty year old dancer, Elizabeth Payne, is recovering from a traumatic past with the help of her older brother, Liam. The two of them have been yearning for peace for quite some time, and when a good friend comes to live with them for the summer they start their journey towards finding it. Through ups, downs, relapses, and two albums- Liz fights through her own mind to get better.
Warnings: There are mentions of abuse, PTSD, and anxiety throughout every part. Also- mature content. One of the guys doesn’t turn out to be so great- this story is not intended to give him this image. This is all purely fiction.
Part Seven
Laying down across my couch the tv played meaningless sitcoms as I scrolled through my phone. Twitter was alive as I interacted with some of my fans, and I watched the trending hashtags closely like I usually did.
Some people were tweeting questions about my sister, about my sister and Harry and about my sister again.
Her name hadn’t been out in the world this huge since it happened. She was posted all over social media, her face across nearly every magazine in the world with trashy articles written about her left and right. There were a few that steered away from it and supported her, and I personally reached out to those companies to thank them and to help them work on any future projects.
Now that Elizabeth had been spotted three times in the same month, the world didn’t know how to act.
What happened to my sister didn’t die down until a year after it happened. She went into hiding, we put her into hiding, and made sure she was completely out of the public eye.
A new tweet popped up to the top of my feed.
@julesstevens798: your sister sure knows how to run through your group of friends huh. #liampayneqanda
I stared at it for a moment and watched as a few replies followed it.
@onedxalways54: Shut up!!! U dont know her or them!! Leave her alone. She went through serious shit.
@julesstevens798: so she gets to whore around again with another one direction guy?! seems messed up to me. isnt she fucked up in the head anyway!?
I wanted to block her and throw my phone away, but instead I refreshed the page. Torturing myself some more.
@camcam_ryannn: @julesstevens798 And Harrys entire album was about Kendall who are we kidding. One D Always can shut her mouth. Harrys just looking for a fuck. #liampayneqanda
@julesstevens798: @camcam_ryannn and easiest way to get it is to use someone mentally unstable!!!! LOL!!!!
@camcam_ryannn: @julesstevens798 I bet she knows what shes doing too. How long has it been shes had sex am I right?!?!?
@julesstevens789: @camcam_ryannn lol girl, who knows where shes been and who shes been with!!!! they probably all slept with her when she lived with them before!!! probably why she moved in!!!
I stopped myself from reading the thread between those two girls and tossed my phone to the side. I buried my face into my hands and let out a scream. Something I could only do when I was completely alone. My heart was on fire and I could feel it through my entire body. I jumped up and paced around my living room. I tried reminding myself that those people online really have no idea what they’re talking about. They don’t know what's on the inside. They don’t know how many nights I held my sister as she cried herself to sleep.
How two years ago I found her lying on my kitchen floor in a ball screaming that she did this to herself with tears streaming down her face. I couldn’t get her up on my own, I could barely hold myself together. I knew I had to for her sake, so I called Harry. By the time he got to my house Elizabeth was sitting up with her face against my kitchen cabinets still sobbing as I tried to hold onto her. Harry ran through the front door, leaving it open behind him, and threw himself to the ground in front of her. He tried to grab onto her hands and she fought him away.
“Don’t touch me!” She shouted at him, “Don’t come near me!” Harry sat back and watched her. He looked all over her and closed his eyes.
“Elizabeth,” He said in a soft voice. She didn’t acknowledge him, “Elizabeth.” He said again, opening his eyes.
“Stop!” She shouted covering her ears. I sat back leaning against the cabinet next her and covered my face trying my hardest to hold back my tears. “Go away,” She demanded, “Go!”
“I’m not leaving,” Harry said in the same tone he spoke in before.
“Please! Leave!” She shouted, sliding her body down to lay completely on the floor where she was before. “You shouldn’t be here,” Her voice got quiet but still she cried. I looked up to Harry who was looking at me with a sad expression and he quickly returned his attention to my sister. “I shouldn’t be here,” She said quickly and stopped her crying abruptly.
“What are you talking about?” Harry asked, maintaining his gentle voice. Normally I could handle myself in a situation like this, but it never got this bad. My hands were shaking as I sat beside my sister unable to comfort her. She sat up and glanced around the room, not looking at me or Harry.
“I shouldn’t be here,” She whispered. Her lips were red, her eyes were bloodshot and her skin was pale and washed out. Her cheeks were stained with tears and her hair was in the same bun it's been in for weeks. It’d been a month since we’d been home from the tour.
“I don’t... deserve this,” Her hands started to shake. She tucked her knees into her chest, “I don’t deserve him, he’s so much better without me. I ruined his life. I don’t deserve to be here, to have you or anyone,” She looked to me with sad eyes, “Why is life worth it, why should I even try?” I reached over to hold onto her hands a bit too fast and she flinched, jumping away, pinning herself to the cabinet with a crash. She stared at me with her eyes wide open. My hands, still out in the air, fell to my lap and I cried.
“I’m not going to hurt you,” I said clearly, “You know me, you know who I am. I’m not going to hurt you.” She stared at me, her eyes still wide, and she watched me cry. We sat that way for a minute.
“No,” She said and swiftly stood up and hurried away from the both of us. Harry jumped up and chased after her. I took a deep breath and got up to follow them. When I turned into the bathroom where they were, Harry had my sister in his arms. He had his back pressed against the shower with Elizabeth facing away from him sobbing into her arms mumbling something I couldn’t even understand. Harry, still somehow staying strong, nodded at me and closed his eyes for a second.
“We have to take her,” He whispered and she sobbed again clearly shouting and disagreeing with him into her arms. I let more tears fall, swallowed my pride and left to grab the car keys.
Harry carried her out to the car clearly strong enough to resist her fighting and he held her against him in the backseat. No one spoke until the car was in park. Liz had stopped crying and uncovered her face to look at Harry. He gave her a soft smile. She sat up, looked out the window and let out a staggered breath.
“You should just leave me here,” She sniffled and wiped her face with her sleeves.
“We won’t be doing that,” Harry said firmly. She looked at him, then to me, then to Harry and began to cry again.
“Come on,” She fell back toward his chest and with that we brought her out of the car and into the hospital and stayed with her there overnight.
I fell back into the sofa and sunk into the cushions directing my attention to the TV. I did tap on my phone once to check the time. It read 8:07. I frowned at it, crossed my arms over my chest and looked at the TV again. Tapping my right foot against the floor I did my best to fight the urge of calling Harry. He and my sister had been out since about 10 o’clock this morning. He told me they’d be home before the sunset, but that timeframe was quickly coming to a close. I hadn’t heard from either of them all day. I had actually planned for nothing to do for the sole purpose of being free to answer my sister's calls, but I assume she’s fine. The moment I reached for my phone ready to call him, the front door swung open. Harry waltzed in with my sister under his arm and they were laughing. I watched them quietly. Elizabeth twisted herself around and wrapped her arms around Harry's back, her face in line with his chest. He was incredibly taller than her. Her chin was tilted up and she was smiling at him. His arms fell around her as he smiled back and touched his forehead to hers. He whispered something to her and she blushed. He whispered to her again and she grinned. Their eyes never parted.
She said something to him and he took a second to answer. Whatever he said to her made her frown, but he quickly said something right after to make her laugh. She pushed him away shaking her head.
“Harry!” She nearly snorted. I clicked the TV off and their heads turned to me in shock, both their mouths fell open.
“Hi,” I said happily and a little uneasy. Elizabeth hesitated a moment but then she hurried her way in the living room to hop on the couch beside me. Her face was glowing and her smile was beaming. Her hair and makeup weren’t as done up as they were when she left this morning, but she looked beautiful. She leaned into me for a hug. Pulling her in I saw Harry over her shoulder watching us with his hands in his pockets. He gave me a small smile, and I pulled away from Elizabeth before I thought about returning it back to him. My mind still influenced by Twitter.
“How was your day?” I asked giving her my full smile and attention. Harry looked unsure to me as he slummed his way around the other couch to sit down. My eyes didn’t deter from my sister. Elizabeth talked for fifteen minutes about the day they had, Harry chiming in now and then to answer her questions and to clarify things for me. The coffee they had, the records they bought, the hats they tried on, the drums that she played, the ice cream and the dinner they ate.
“I asked if we could walk the rest of the way home once we turned the corner to our neighborhood,” Her eyebrows raised.
“You know where that is?” I questioned pulling a face. She nodded.
“Course I do. I don’t forget Liam,” She poked a finger to my chest, “We got out of the car and walked,” She sighed, her eyes closing, “The air was wonderful. To be outside at that hour surrounded by nothing but green.” Glancing to Harry, his elbow was on the arm of the sofa with his head resting in his hand. He was gazing at her with a smile.
“It was so... ethereal.” She let out a breath as if she’d been holding it in. Harry and I were both surprised by her choice of words.
“You’ve been spending too much time with him,” I joked pointing to Harry. Elizabeth covered her mouth and laughed. She looked over her shoulder at Harry, the two of them smiling, and she pulled her bottom lip between her teeth. I cleared my throat gently to break the silence and Elizabeth turned to me.
“I think I might go call Kens, is that okay?” She asked. I looked at her confused.
“You don’t have to ask,” I told her, “Are you okay?” My mind trickled back to Twitter.
“Yeah!” She breathed, “I just want to tell her about today that’s all.” Her smile was still on her face. Harry and I both let her go off to her room. Harry watched her all the way until she turned the corner of the hallway.
“So,” I started and waited for him to look back at me. I took a much needed deep breath, “It was a good day, yeah?” Harry sat forward, elbows to his knees, and looked me in the eye.
“You have the greatest sister,” He said, his voice quiet, “She and I had the best day I’ve had in a long time. Unbelievable to think of where she was just last year, mentally.” The use of that word threw my mind for a spin. I looked down at my feet and continued to listen.
“She went a lot longer than I thought she was going to. I thought after the record store we would’ve been done and coming back,” He scoffed, “I was very wrong.” I nodded along my eyes looking at him again.
“Liam,” He leaned forward a tiny bit more, “She was singing in the car, she was dancing to the music in the car, she was acting like she was when she was eighteen.” His voice was low. A smile snuck onto my face.
“I couldn’t tell you what’s happening,” I said truthfully, “She’s...” My voice trailed off.
“Getting better,” Harry finished my thought. We looked at each other with a smile before his fell. He sat back on the couch and looked at his lap. He looked like he had something to say. Now was my time to lean forward, elbows to my knees. His eyebrows were low as his eyes flickered to find mine.
“What?” I asked softly with a hint of big brother in it. Harry licked his lips and took a breath.
“We kissed in the park on the way home,” He spoke guiltily softly. I felt a tinge of anger. As a brother you don’t really want to hear those things about your sister especially from one of your good friends, and with the situation we’re in here at home I didn’t know how to take it. We sat in silence. The sound of Elizabeth's feet came barreling down the hallway. Harry and I both sat up straight to see her. She hightailed her way into me and nearly fell on top of me.
“Kens!” She exclaimed, “She’s so happy! She’s calling you tomorrow, Liam. I feel so great,” She held her chest breathing heavily, “Gosh, I can’t catch my breath.” She groaned, immediately looked to Harry and the two of them shared a laugh.
“Alright, well tell her I’m looking forward to it,” I grinned. She said goodnight to Harry and I, and popped her phone into my hands without thinking twice about it and walked back toward her room.
“I was on twitter not too long ago,” I started. Harry's head turned to me, “And I read some things I didn’t need to read.”
“Oh no, Liam,” Harry giggled a bit, “Don’t you remember the first rule from media training!” He joked and I could remember those days of sitting in a room for hours learning the ways. I talked over my laughter.
“I do, trust me, but as a brother I had to forget that rule.”
“How long ago was it on there?” Harry asked, pulling his phone out.
“Harry, you don’t have to-“ I started to say but he found it quick. He pulled a face.
“No, no,” He stated. His eyes continued to read and they shot open wide, “This is disgusting!” He shouted. I shushed him for Elizabeth’s sake.
“I know. It’s terrible,” I agreed. Harry tossed his phone on the coffee table not even bothering to lock it.
“Alright Liam Payne Q and A,” He scooted to the end of the couch he was on to get closer to mine, “What do you have to say about them, because I know something is coming.” Harry squinted his eyes. I know he’s waiting for me to get angry, and for me to throw a fit. He’s waiting for me to blame him. To put all of this on him as if he wrote those tweets himself because that’s how I used to treat this stuff. I brought my hand to the back of my neck and shook my head.
“It’s not her’s, nor is it your fault those tweets were written,” I said. Harry scoffed, telling me I was right, “It just makes me upset that people could think those things about her... and you.” Harry shrugged.
“That’s been our lives, Liam,” He explained, “Every person we’re seen with, every place we go, everything we say. All of it is always twisted, always pulled out of proportion. Everything everyone knows about us is not even half true.”
“Yeah,” I bobbed my head.
“Don’t let teenagers on twitter affect you or your life. You’ve come so far with your sister and you know her heart. You know who she’s been with and where she’s been. Right?” He schooled me.
“Right,” I answered.
“Right!” He exclaimed, “I kissed your sister, but I swear I won’t do it again nor will I lay a finger on her until I know you’re going to be okay.” He stated looking me straight in the eye. I could see the heat in his face, the passion behind his words. He spoke from his heart, he always has. With everything in me I trusted him. He’s stuck with us for so long, and he keeps coming back. He comes back to see her. He came back to help me take care of her on multiple occasions. Looking at our past it was clear his heart was always there at the frontline. He was just about to leave me and I stopped him in his tracks.
“Harry,” I said, lifting a hand to make him pause. He sat back down and waited. Folding my hands together I held them on top of my forehead, “I think... you need to...” Harry shook his head and shot me a crazy look.
“What?” He asked in a funny voice.
“I think you need to let it happen,” I said looking him in the eyes. He stared back at me in shock, and I could tell he had a smile in there somewhere.
“Really?” He whispered, not making a move.
“Yes,” I answered swiftly ignoring the darker side of my mind, “It’s clear you’re both... in love.” I thought of another word to use but there wasn’t one.
“She is?” He was still whispering and had barely moved.
“Oh, she hasn’t said anything?” I questioned, but smirked, knowing what I just did.
“No, neither of us said anything.”
I ran a hand under my chin and nodded.
“Interesting,” I said mysteriously. Harry still sat there frozen staring at me, “Harold, get it together.” I laughed, clapping my hands together. He didn’t move but his smile grew larger and larger.
“Thanks Liam,” He said, and with that he left the room and started down the hall to his room. He and Elizabeth both turn left at the end of the hallway to get to their rooms, and I’m the only one who makes a right. Letting that information marinate in my brain for a moment, it actually didn’t bother me as much as I thought it was going to. He got to the end and I’m pretty sure I watched him fist bump himself a ‘hell yeah’ as he turned the corner. I found my phone and held it up to unlock it. I quickly swiped out of twitter and went into my messages where I had two waiting for me from Kens.
K-Evening! It seems as though our girl has had a lovely day. I’d like to call you tomorrow for you and I to chat a bit about it.
K- Elizabeth told me you were okay with a call. I’ll be in touch tomorrow!
I didn’t bother to explain why I hadn’t answered, she knew I was home with Elizabeth and Harry. I sent her a thumbs up, locked my phone and started for my bedroom. Glancing to my left when I got to the end of the hallway, Harry's door was shut but my sisters was open. She always left her door open at night. I stepped to it quietly and peeked my head in. Instead of curling up into a ball like she usually did, she had both her hands over her head and she was laying on her back with her knees tucked in. She looked insanely at peace. I blew her a kiss and went to bed.

The Mandalorian Fic -- The whole future lies in thee
Set right after episode 8 -- Din makes a promise. Fluff, tenderness, parenthood, ~2000 words
On AO3
The baby was sleeping soundly, finally, safely tucked into the container that once again had to serve as a crib after all of the ugnaught’s skilled work had gone to waste. Despite the sound of the kid’s slow peaceful breathing Din turned in the pilot’s seat to glance over his shoulder, just to be sure. With nothing else around the ship suitable as padding, Din had gone back to using his cape for the purpose — the baby didn’t seem to mind, one small hand tangled in the folds of it and his face slack-mouthed and soft with sleep, mythosaur pendant still clutched in his other hand.
Din turned back to the viewport to watch the serene lights of hyperspace dancing by outside, blood caking uncomfortably in his hair under the helmet.
Whatever it was IG-11 had done with the bacta spray it seemed to have worked —Din’s head felt clear, apart from the exhaustion, and that horrible raw wrongness in his torso that meant something important in there had been shaken past breaking was completely gone — but he still ached all over, every movement setting off a fresh fireworks display of discomfort through his whole body. He felt vaguely like he’d just gone three more rounds with the mudhorn and lost every one.
Din kept his hands loosely curled around the control sticks even though there was no real need to anymore, with their destination set and the ship’s systems ticking away steadily. His plans hadn’t arrived at a real ‘towards’ yet, having largely stopped at ‘away, before something even worse shows up’, which he felt was becoming an unfortunate yet undeniable trend in his life lately. Get far enough away, get some supplies, hope for some decent work, rinse, repeat.
The events of the last few days blurred together, a thin sheen of oil puddling on top of deceptively calm waters without sinking in. From experience it would probably hit him worse once the battle numbness receded, but for now he simply sat there in the vast silence of his head, watching the lights run by. The only sounds were the baby’s snores and the familiar creaks and low moans of the Razor Crest.
Finally Din sighed and shifted a bit. He should go find something for the baby to eat in case he’d be hungry when he woke up. What with one thing and another it was starting to be a while since his last meal. Din got up and walked softly over to the hatch, dropping down as gently as he could to avoid waking the kid. He opened the storage space he reserved for foodstuffs and stared blankly at the containers within for a while, willing himself to just pick one.
That was when the crying started.
Din startled out of his haze of indecision and made his way back to the cockpit, where the baby was giving such a miserably plaintive cry that Din felt it like an ache in his own chest. When he spotted Din the baby cried even louder and reached his small arms towards him, straining up desperately enough that he almost fell out of his seat.
“Hey, hey, hey,” Din said, picking him up and holding him in a state of mild panic because he’d never heard the kid make a sound like this before. “What’s wrong?”
The baby just sobbed helplessly, his tiny face tucked against Din’s body and his three-fingered hands clutching at whatever part of the armor he could reach.
“You hurt somewhere?” Din asked, fear shooting up his spine and shaking him awake in earnest. The kid had seemed fine, but maybe something had happened that Din hadn’t noticed, or perhaps turning that wall of flame away had been too much of a strain on his little body, or —
Cradling the baby against his chest Din reached up with his free hand to activate the extremely rudimentary medical scanner built into the visor of his helmet, only partially reassured when it showed nothing out of the ordinary with the kid except a heightened pulse, which could easily be attributed to the huge gasping sobs. The scanner was only designed to give information on the ‘dead or alive?’ sort of level. If something was wrong with the baby’s brain, or, or wherever else his abilities came from, though, how would Din even…
Shit, he wished the nurse droid were still here, IG-11 would have known what to do. When it came to usefulness they would have been better off if it’d been Din blowing himself up at the end of that tunnel. The Armorer might be wiser than anyone else he’d ever met, but he didn’t know what the hell she’d been thinking, sending the kid off with Din as his only permanent bumbling support. For a moment and for the first time since he was a boy, Din gave serious consideration to just sitting down on the spot and bursting into tears himself.
Taking a deep breath he pulled himself together.
“Hey, it’s okay,” he said, holding the baby closer. “Everything’s okay, I’m here. It’s safe.”
The baby gave a hiccup between sobs and gazed up at him, the worst of the urgency slowly melting away. His round cheeks were flushed and his face still scrunched up slightly in distress, but his eyes cleared enough that Din could see something in his voice must have reached him.
“Whatever it is, we can fix it,” Din said, willing himself to believe it as he stroked his thumb over the baby’s forehead and along one fuzzy ear. The baby still looked at him, his hand fumbling to grab a hold of the fabric of Din’s gambeson like he was afraid Din would disappear if he didn’t.
Din maneuvered his way down to the lower section of the ship one-handed so they’d have more space, speaking to the baby the whole way — he had no real idea what he was saying anymore, only that the baby seemed to calm at the sound of his voice. Once he reached the cargo hold he started pacing slowly, though whether to help soothe the baby or himself he couldn’t say at this point.
The baby fussed quietly but miserably, still unable to settle all the way down. Din rocked him gently in the way he’d found through trial and error best did the trick, mindlessly walking back and forth across the floor as he looked down at the baby and tried to prod his exhausted mind back to work to figure out what was going on.
“This would be a lot easier if either of us knew how to talk,” Din told the baby mournfully, bouncing him as he reached the end of the cargo hold and turned around again.
A spark of instinct lit up the weary murkiness of Din’s brain. When Kuiil — and there was a blankness around the name in his head that from experience meant something large and ugly was waiting to take its toll when the worst of the fog lifted, but for now there was only silence — when Kuiil had taken the baby away with him, back towards the ship, Din had been too wrapped up in his own fear-hazy thoughts to think to reassure the kid, too busy trying to work out contingencies and strategies with too little information to go on to...
Something shifted in Din’s mind, his perspective drifting and realigning just so, as he realized that the last time he’d seen his parents he had always known it was the last time. There had been no time for doubt. One moment they’d been there, and then they were gone. There had been no space where he hadn’t known whether they were coming back, no waiting.
Big dark eyes watching him as he walked away and didn’t even glance back.
The thought went through him like a shot the beskar could do nothing to stop, leaving something in there to bleed.
“I’m sorry,” he said quietly, cupping the baby’s head in his hand. “I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking.”
The baby looked at him with his head on one side, ears lopsided in exhaustion, but there was something like understanding in his wide dark eyes, the crying finally dying away.
“Yeah, I know,” Din murmured, stroking the back of the small downy head. “I know all of that was scary. It’s okay to be scared. I’m here. I’m not going anywhere. It’s okay.”
The baby rubbed his cheek against the breastplate, fumbling around until he found the mythosaur pendant around his neck and absentmindedly stuck it in his mouth as he gazed unwaveringly up at Din. Distantly, illogically, Din wanted to press a quick kiss to his forehead, but he doubted the kid would find the cold touch of beskar and transparisteel all that comforting. Instead he carefully wiped the last of the tear tracks away with his thumb, smiling despite himself when the baby scrunched up his nose and made a protesting sound around the pendant. “Sorry.”
Din unfastened his breastplate so the baby would have something softer to rest against, then half collapsed, half sat down on the spot, his back resting against the bulkhead. He held the kid against his chest, cradled in the crook of his arm. The baby made a pleased sound and tucked himself even closer with a wiggle. Din used two fingers of his right hand to pull off the glove on the left so he could feel the reassuring warmth of the little body under his hand, gently running his thumb back and forth over the baby’s back when he snuggled into it.
They sat like that for a while until Din sighed.
“I know… I know words don’t count for much and you’re probably still too small to understand, but I — think I need to say this out loud.” Din glanced down and carefully took the kid’s tiny hand between his own thumb and forefinger, stroking the back of it. “I’ve, uh. Sworn only one other oath in my life and it was a long time ago, so I might be a bit rusty.”
While he paused the baby wrapped his entire hand around Din’s index finger, his feet tipping idly back and forth in the way that usually signified contentment while he gazed up at Din.
Din took a deep breath, dizzy with something like reverence and possibly also the last lingering remnants of the concussion. “No matter how many times I go away, I am always going to come back. As long as I still live I am always, always going to come back for you. I promise.”
His voice broke slightly on the last part and he cleared his throat, blinked quickly a couple of times even though he knew no one could see his face. The baby raised his arms in the way he did when he wanted to be lifted, so Din held the kid up in front of him until they were face to face, or at least face to visor. The baby reached out and put his palm flat against the metal, giving a low happy coo.
“I know I’m not much of a prize,” Din said in a rough voice, their new sigil bright on his shoulder and in his mind. “But I promise I’m going to give it everything I have.”
The baby babbled like he was imparting a piece of great wisdom and wrapped his arms as far around the helmet as he could with a trilling sound, legs dangling cheerfully. Din used the opportunity while his view was obscured anyway to close his eyes for a second.
“I promise,” Din said again, willing his voice to carry the meaning if the words couldn’t, and held the child even closer against his chest.

Non-Sequential [Ch. 15]
Pairing: Pre-Serum Steve Rogers/Steve Rogers x Reader
One night, Steve Rogers met a beautiful dame named Y/N. He hadn’t intended on letting her get away. But fate had other ideas. Y/N appeared and disappeared in his life so hauntingly that Steve started to wonder if she was an angel meant to watch over him.
Word Count: 2,825
Chapter 14
Natasha had been watching Steve closely. She took note of every facial expression, every jaw clench, every sigh, every brow furrow. He wasn’t being himself. But Nat didn’t really believe he should be being himself. He wasn’t Captain America anymore. He was a criminal.
They were somewhere in South Africa now. Just outside of Johannesburg. There was a peak in crime. The team didn’t have the same access to information in the intelligence community. So theses days, they basically just followed the news. And it took them where help was needed most.
Wanda and Sam had gone out to get food for all of them, leaving Nat a little time alone with their captain.
Steve was just in basketball shorts and a white T-shirt. He had conformed to modern clothing trends of men more than ever, now that he was on the run and trying to be someone else.
He stared out into the night and leaned against the railing of the top floor balcony. Forests and hills were the only thing to see.
“You OK?” Nat asked him carefully.
Steve just nodded without even glancing toward her.
“You know, you could’ve stayed with her. I know you think we need you… but I could’ve taken care of us.”
Steve shook his head. “I’m the reason all of you are in this mess. What kind of man would I be if I stayed there with her, in some fantasy, pretending like I wasn’t a criminal?”
“But…” Nat swallowed, not sure if she dared say what she wanted. “You left her all alone there, Steve.”
She watched Steve for some sort of reaction – any reaction, really.
For the first time since they all went on the run, Steve broke.
His eyes filled with tears. His bottom lip shook.
“She needed me, Natasha. Y/N needed me and I was out, becoming a felon. I abandoned her.” The tears streamed down his face.
Nat knew how hard Steve tried to stay strong for them. To see him finally break down just proved how much he was hurting.
“What happened to her is not your fault, Steve. Even if you were with her, there was nothing you could have done to keep her from traveling. Whether you were at her side or not, she still would’ve come back back to the present beaten and bruised.”
“It doesn’t matter,” he shot back. “She wouldn’t have woken up in a hospital all alone.”
Nat narrowed her eyes. “But that’s exactly what you did to her in Wakanda.”
Steve knew she had a point. He stared into Nat’s gaze. “I’d already let her down.”
Nat sighed and looked out at the landscape. “Steve, I’m only saying this because I care about you. But you need to stop being such a fucking idiot.”
Without giving him a chance to reply, she got up and made her way back inside.
Steve lay in bed staring at the ceiling that night. Well, it wasn’t even really a bed. It was more of a cot.
He lied to Natasha. He had seen Y/N before he left. She hadn’t been awake. But seeing her in such a state was all it took for Steve to run.
There was one thing everyone knew for certain after all this time. Y/N was drawn to places in his past because of their relationship in the future. Because he loved her. Because she loved him.
This was all Steve’s fault. Y/N went to dangerous places because of him. She almost lost her life multiple times because of him.
Maybe if he stayed away, maybe if he just left her alone…then her powers would stop dragging her in the past to him.
Steve sat at her bed-side in Wakanda and cried.
Over half of her skin was tainted blue, purple, or green – some degree of bruising. Her lips were split. One of her eyes were swollen. Countless ribs were broken. She looked skinnier, weaker. How long had she been stuck in the past to receive such pain?
“She will recover,” Shuri said quietly.
How long had she been standing in the doorway?
Steve whipped around, annoyed with himself for not sensing her presence right away. He wiped away his tears, but showed now indication that he was embarrassed by them.
He cleared his throat and stood, facing the princess. “She almost died.”
“Yes.” Shuri didn’t even bother trying to disagree. They both knew what he said was true. “It is good that you brought her here. We will have her healthy soon.”
Steve gave a bow of his head, “Thank you.”
Shuri noticed the duffle-bag he had left near Y/N’s bed and that he was wearing his jacket. “You are not staying?”
Steve put his hands on his hips and looked at the ground. “I told T’Challa that I couldn’t.”
“Yes, I know. But I thought once you saw her, you would not be able to stay true to your word,” she admitted.
Steve said nothing.
“It seems you trust us very much,” Shuri spoke with a sly smirk.
He raised an eyebrow, not sure what she meant.
“You have now left us the two most important people in your life, trusting us to take care of them.”
Steve looked over his shoulder at Y/N then. “They’re both where they are because of me.”
“You are much too hard on yourself, Captain.”
He ignored her comment and bent down to pick up his duffle-bag. “Thank you again, Shuri…for everything.”
With a final dip of his head, he walked past her and took his leave. ————————-
Y/N blinked, the sounds of shrieking roused her from her sleep.
But she wasn’t lying down. She was standing. And she wasn’t standing in her bedroom.
In fact, she had no idea where she was. Her heart started racing. She frantically looked around at her surroundings and didn’t recognize a single thing.
Then she looked down to see that a knife was being gripped in her right hand.
Had she hurt someone? Why the hell was she carrying the knife Steve gave her?
She’d been sleeping with it on her nightstand. Steve must’ve given specific instructions to T’Challa’s team, because she awoke in Wakanda with the majority of her own belongings. They must’ve gone to her apartment and grabbed what Steve told them to.
Y/N was hyperventilating now. She stared at the blade and received some relief to see that there appeared to be no blood on it.
“You OK?” A voice said quietly behind her. There was no Wakandan accent to his english.
Y/N whipped around and her eyes widened. No. It couldn’t be. She was imagining things.
The Winter Soldier stood just 15 feet or so away from her.
Without even realizing it, Y/N held up the knife and stiffly started walking backwards.
He immediately held up his hands in surrender and took a few steps away. It was obvious he was trying to make himself smaller and less threatening, but that was rather hard and a little ridiculous.
Then Y/N seemed to snap out of her initial shock and allowed herself to actually take him in. His eyes weren’t cold and lifeless like when she’d seen him in his Winter Soldier form. There was color to his skin and a new energy in his blue eyes. Even when he was the Winter Soldier, he had never ever hurt her. In fact, he had only helped her. But with his long hair and scruffy beard, he didn’t look like the Bucky of the past that had kissed her.
Bucky seemed to see that she was processing all of this.
“Just in case you actually want to stab me with that knife…” He began with a surprisingly casual tone. "Your grip is all wrong. You’ll end up stabbing your own finger before ever hurting me – if you don’t drop it first.”
She looked at him with utter confusion. But her chest was still heaving from the distress and heavy breathing.
“I didn’t mean to scare you. I just wanted to make sure you were alright,” Bucky added.
Y/N still stared at him. Her mind was struggling to process the man that was before her. He looked like the Winter Soldier who had witnessed her torture, but he sounded like the man she once considered a friend.
Bucky then took a hesitant step forward. “Y/N,” he muttered gently. “It’s just me.”
“How – What are you doing here?” She finally stumbled through the question.
“T’Challa and Steve brought me here. They cured – Well, they got rid of everything Hydra put into my head.”
Y/N finally lowered the knife to her side. “You’ve been here this whole time?”
Bucky rubbed the back of his neck. “Since everything went down in Romania.”
She just nodded and looked around. For some reason, it was hard to meet his gaze now.
“Umm…Where am I?” It was so meek, making it clear that she was ashamed to have to ask someone.
“The Banquet Hall,” Bucky shrugged.
“What time is it?”
“Uhh… about 4AM.”
Y/N didn’t seem relieved by any of the information. “What are you doing here?”
He shrugged. “I was…uhh…using the pool and I saw you sleepwalking.”
She looked down at the knife then and suddenly her eyes filled with tears. Her bottom lip shook as she asked, “Did I try to hurt anyone?”
He gave her a sympathetic look. “No, of course not.”
The knife dropped to the floor with a light clatter.
Y/N covered her face with her hands and started crying.
Bucky wanted to rush to her. He wanted to pull her into his arms and tell her he knew exactly what she was feeling, that she wasn’t alone. But he couldn’t.
“There’s something wrong w-with me,” Y/N sobbed.
He risked another step toward her, but still kept his distance.
“There’s nothing wrong with you,” he told her softly.
But she just shook her head in disagreement and continued crying.
There wasn’t much Bucky felt like he could do. His priority was to make sure he didn’t scare her. And Y/N had made it very clear that she didn’t trust him right now.
“Do you…want me to show you back to your room?” Bucky finally asked her carefully.
Y/N finally managed to get a hold of her crying and slowly put an end to it. She wiped at her cheeks roughly, embarrassed now for having a meltdown.
She shook her head. “I don’t want to go back to sleep.”
Bucky grimaced at her response. He was all too familiar with the feeling. But evading sleep wouldn’t work forever.
“OK,” he replied casually. “Would you like to take a walk? I know my way around pretty well now. So no need to worry about getting lost.”
Y/N shifted her weight, clearly trying to gage how much she wanted to trust him.
“We don’t have to talk about it. We can just walk,” Bucky added quickly.
After a few moments, Y/N reluctantly nodded.
He gave her a hopeful, yet small, smirk at her final agreement. Then he turned his back and took a step forward, but stopped when he thought of something.
“Actually, can I show you something? It’s a bit of a walk.”
Y/N shrugged and nodded. Where the hell else did she have to go? What else did she have to do?
Bucky stayed true to his promise, not asking her any questions and not even forcing her to listen to him talk.
She kept her distance from him, with three or four feet between them and with her always a step or two behind him.
He didn’t take offense to it. The silence allowed Bucky to take in all the bruises across her skin that were still healing. He also noted the way she limped. It probably wasn’t good for her injuries to be sleepwalking. Who knew what damage she could do without even realizing it?
“Why are you up?” Y/N finally said after 20 minutes of them silently walking beside each other.
“What?” He blurted out, not sure if she had actually spoken or he was imagining things.
She turned to look at him, meeting his gaze. “You said you were swimming in the pool.”
“Oh,” Bucky sighed. “Well…you’re not the only person that’s scared of sleeping.”
Y/N just nodded slowly and then crossed her arms, hugging herself tightly.
“You cold?” He asked her with soft concern, just a millisecond away from giving her his jacket.
But Y/N quickly shook her head and lied that she was fine.
He nodded in return. Somehow he understood that even offering his jacket was too much for her. It was an invasion of her space and it felt like too intimate of an act for someone she clearly did not feel comfortable with.
Silence settled between them once again.
“Here we are,” Bucky told her and pointed straight ahead.
There was a couple of small huts and a fenced in area with some animals.
“Where are we?” Y/N asked with confusion.
“This is where I live,” Bucky answered.
Without giving her any other cue, he started walking forward. Y/N quickly caught up with him. When she heard the sound of bleats, she looked to Bucky. He was already smiling.
The enclosure was filled with half a dozen goats, who were now all at the entrance, excited to have their master return.
“Hey guys,” Bucky cooed in greeting as he opened up the fence. Y/N stood frozen in place as she watched.
“Come on. I promise they won’t hurt you,” he reassured her.
Ever so slowly, Y/N walked to the opening.
Two of the goats were either babies or micro sized, but they were the first to gallop up to her while making the cutest sounds.
“Why hello there,” Y/N whispered as she bent down so they had easier access.
One of them immediately started biting on the end of her shirt.
“No, no, no, Frankenstein,” Bucky warned lightly as he picked up the grey and black spotted micro goat. “We talked about this. No chewing on people’s clothes.” Then he hugged the goat to his chest.
The goat just baa-ed back at Bucky.
“Frankenstein?” Y/N asked while trying not to smile or laugh.
“Yeah, her name is Frankenstein,” Bucky replied without shame. Then he pointed to the other little goat that was all white, “And that’s Snow White.” He pointed to the bigger goat that was white with black spots, “That’s King Kong.” Then the chestnut goat, “Clark Gable.” Then the all gray one, “Glinda.” Then he finally pointed to the black one that was the only one not fighting for either of their attention, “And that’s Fred.”
Y/N fully laughed now. She couldn’t hold it in any longer.
“Why are you laughing?” Bucky asked with a smile.
“You gave all of them those names and this one just gets ‘Fred’?” Y/N asked through giggles. “Well, that’s the only thing he liked!” He retorted with exasperation.
“Oh, yeah?”
“Yeah, right Fred?” Bucky called to the goat.
It instantly responded back. But somehow, his bleat actually sounded like he was saying ‘Fred.’ Y/N quickly understood how this name was chosen and fell into a fit of giggles.
Bucky have never felt more relief than when he heard that sound come from her.
“Here, Snow White is good at cuddling,” he told her before thrusting the white micro goat in her grasp.
“Oh, umm…” Y/N awkwardly shifted the goat in her arms so she had a better hold on it.
Then she jumped when there was a loud moo near them. She turned to see a giant cow slowly walking their way.
“Oh, that’s Betsy.” Bucky added nonchalantly.
Y/N titled her head. “Any other animals you wanna tell me about?”
“Just Humphrey.”
“Humphrey?”
“Yeah, he’s a horse.” Bucky whistled.
10 seconds later, a horse came trotting over. It immediately nuzzled Bucky’s face.
“He was a gift from Okoye. She tried to convince me to take a rhino instead, but that was a little…much for me to wrap my mind around.”
Y/N gaped at him. “A rhino?”
“Exactly.”
“Sometimes Wakanda can be…strange,” Y/N admitted with a light laugh.
Bucky nodded in agreement. “It’s a little earlier than what they’re used to, but do you wanna feed them?”
Y/N smirked at him, “Sure.”
A few minutes later, Bucky leaned against the fence as he watched Y/N feed all the animals. She talked softly to them as she did so, bringing a shy smile to Bucky’s lips.
And for a fleeting moment, both of them forgot about the darkness they were trying to escape. The same darkness that brought them together in the first place.

Loving Her: Alex Morgan - Chapter 14
A/N: This is dedicated to a couple of my craclheads. Also, an official WARNING is in effect. There are some heavy topics in the story so please be careful. Better safe than sorry.
(Y/N) POV:
I was numb. I didn’t know whether to scream or cry. I never thought I could feel pain like this again. It was one thing when just a few people in my life knew. It’s all different now. The world knows. They know what I am. A disappointment. An abomination. Never really being good enough. A burden. Selfish. The thoughts that plague me when I’m alone. They are out there for everyone to know now.
“Do you want to talk about it?” Becky asked me as I shook my head.
“No.” I said shortly as she sighed. I walked away from her towards the field without talking to anyone.
I knew that it wasn’t their fault that this has happened, but I didn’t want the pity that they were looking at me with. I have never done well with being given sympathy. I just wanted to continue training and keep going in my day like usual, but I had a feeling that they weren’t going to let me. The looks that I was being given were starting to become extremely annoying. I know they have all seen the video and had heard the words used to describe me. Certain people had made a point to avoid me completely due to a certain reference in the video which I thought to be a smart decision. I didn’t have the patience to deal with anyone right now.
I wanted nothing more than to disappear and fall off the face of the planet. I wanted to go and crawl into bed and never come out again. It’s hard enough trying to push out all the bad memories that had found its way back into my head. My emotions had gone into overdrive as all the past pain I have felt resurfaced and overloaded my feelings. My head had yet to stop hurting and the pain in my chest had yet to subside.
As our practice started, I could already feel the tension starting to become too much. I was barely allowed to train due to having my hamstring be a little injured. Which means that my usual stress reliever was taken away from me.
“Light training” Dawn said to me as I nodded. For most of training, I was off by myself. I had started to get lost in my thoughts. This really was my worst nightmare come true. No one could fix this. No one could take away the pain I was feeling in my heart.
All the memories of that time in my life have resurfaced and has completely thrown me off of everything. I can’t sleep. I can’t eat. All I want to do is crawl into bed and shut the world out. I don’t know how to face anyone outside of the people who hadn’t known about this.
“Hey.” I turned towards Alex who had a soft look on her face. She walked towards me pulling me in for a hug. “It’s okay.”
“It’s not” I mumbled as she nodded her head. She pulled away and gave me a sad look.
“I know.” She said as I stared at her. I wanted to accept her comfort, but I couldn’t. I didn’t want to be comforted right now.
She was called back to practice as I continued doing the light training on the side. Eventually, I was able to walk back into the locker room. I elected not to shower or anything. Doing light training was a piece of cake for me…so barely any sweat. Worst comes to worst I’ll take one later.
I started feeling irritation build as everyone continued giving me concerned looks. I was so not in the mood. I grabbed my stuff before exiting the locker room. I made my way to the bus that we were using as I found my seat and sunk down a little. The ride back to the hotel felt short as I immediately made my way to Alex and I’s room.
I walked in and placed my stuff on the bed as I tried to keep my composure. I wanted to scream and yell and destroy something as I felt my emotions build. I felt arms wrap around my waist as Alex rested her head on my back.
“Please talk to me.” She said though she sounded like she was pleading with me.
“There’s nothing to talk about.” I said as she sighed. “It is what it is.”
She placed a soft kiss on the back of my neck as I closed my eyes. I was trying so hard to let myself be comforted by her, but it wasn’t happening. I needed more time before I could accept it from her or anyone else.
“I’m here if you change your mind.” I nodded my head as she stood for another moment cuddling into my back as I rummaged through my bag. “I’m going to go see Kelley and them for a few minutes, but I’ll be back soon.”
“Okay.” I mumbled as she gave me one more kiss before exiting the room.
I stood for a moment as soon as she was gone. The silence in the room was deafening as I tried to fight back the tears. I bit my lip as I tried taking deep breaths. My throat was tightening up and I was finding it harder to breath. I didn’t realize how much I needed to be alone until right now.
I have been surrounded by people since the day started and haven’t had a time to really be alone and process. I glanced down at my phone as I scrolled through the messages from Sebastian and Santiago. They had been trying to talk to me all day, but I had yet to answer them. I don’t know if it was shame or embarrassment even though I knew out of everyone they would understand the most.
As my thoughts continued going at a mile a minute, my breathing was becoming shallower as I started feeling nauseous. I ran into the bathroom emptying what little contents of breakfast I had into the toilet. I fell to the grounded as I started sobbing to myself.
After a few minutes, I had stopped crying for the most part. I had yet to actually watch the video that had ruined my life and I guess now would be the time. I pulled my phone and out pulled up the video that was still trending on twitter. I clicked on it as a fresh wave of tears hit me.
“Welcome back to CBN news as we are currently joined by Brian (Y/LN), the father of current US Soccer Star (Y/N) (Y/LN). Thank you for joining us Mr. (Y/LN).”
“Oh, please call me Brian.” He said as I felt more tears fall. I wasn’t even trying to stop it from happening at this point.
“So, I understand that you and your daughter are quite estranged? Is that right?”
“Yes, we haven’t spoken in some time…”
“Can you explain why that is?”
“If I can be frank, she chose the life of sin over her family.” I paused the video as I continued sobbing. Once I was a little more composed, I pressed play. “She is the abomination of our family.”
“So, does that mean that you have not been viewing this addition of the Women’s World Cup?”
“I have been watching. As has my whole family…obviously we want to support our women’s team, but with so much controversy surrounding the team and having to watch my daughter play…I won’t lie I have found it quite difficult to enjoy this wonderful game.”
“Bullshit.” I mumbled to myself as I continued watching the video.
“Look, I’ll be honest with you. I love my daughter. If she were to give up this life of sin, I would happily accept her back into my life. All I want is my little girl to come home.” I clenched my jaw as it started playing pictures of me when I was younger. Pictures of me with my family and my siblings. “This is not the life I had envisioned for my family…and when (Y/N) is ready to stop running around playing these silly games…she will be welcomed with open arms.”
“So, do you support her and this team at the World Cup?” the interviewer asked as my dad seemed to think about it for a moment.
“It would be anti-patriotic of me to say that I don’t support my countries national team in a world tournament…but if I could change anything…I don’t necessarily think I would want to send my daughter to represent our great nation…I would prefer a player who is closer to their religion…maybe a Jaelene Hinkle.” I watched them finish out the interview as the screen went black.
It was definitely worse than I thought it was. I felt the pain in my body start to become unbearable as I tried to find some control over myself. The more I tried the harder I cried. I haven’t cried like this in a while and honestly, I hate that for me.
I was so caught up in myself that I hadn’t heard the door open before I looked up to see Alex standing there with a look of concern. She immediately was by my side as I tried to wipe away my tears.
“It’s okay. I got you.” She said as pulling me into her. She started rubbing circles on my back as I sobbed into her shoulder. I clung to her like she would disappear if I let go. “You’re okay. Nothing can hurt you.”
“It hurts so much…” I whimpered as she started running her fingers through my hair. “I just want it to stop…”
“I know.” She pulled back and stared at me. I think she recognized that I was still having somewhat of a panic attack. She took my face in her hands forcing me to look at her. “Match my breathing. Slow breaths. In and out.”
She continued trying to calm me down as I started to relax a little. This was one of the biggest reasons that I needed her. She brought me comfort when nothing else could. My heart hurt less whenever she was around. I was always going to need her.
“That’s it.” She said as I started to return to normal. I was still letting out a whimper hear and there as I continued sniffling. “It’s alright.”
“I’m sorry.” I said as she shook her head.
“You have nothing to be sorry about.” She said as I looked down. We sat in silence for a minute or two before I spoke up.
“I’m an abomination.” I whispered as Alex closed her eyes and started shaking her head.
“No. No. No. You are not an abomination. You are the greatest person I have ever known.” She said as I stared at her with teary eyes. “I can tell you and so can anyone else you talk too…you are a gift to all of us. I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have you. You are everything to me and more.”
“I just wish I didn’t exist sometimes…” I mumbled as she shook her head again.
“You may feel that way…but I am so grateful for your existence. You are undoubtedly the love of my life and every life after this…”
I stared at her as she gave me a kiss on the cheek. Her lips felt soft compared to my dry cheeks. I leaned into her a little as my body finally wanted the comfort that she was giving. I closed my eyes as she continued holding me and running her fingers through my hair. To be honest, if my mind wasn’t in such turmoil…I could definitely fall asleep in her arms.
“Can we talk about something else?” I asked softly as she nodded her head.
“Let’s talk about something I actually care about.” She said as I shot her a weak smile. I know she was joking by the way she smiled at me. Her humor is what I needed right now. “Like my marriage proposal?”
I chuckled to myself a little as I stared at her. I knew the moment she asked me what my answer was going to be. The idea of living without her was physically painful. Was there ever any other option?
“Catching me when I am vulnerable.” I said as she frowned. “Smart.”
“We don’t have to talk about it. I was just changing the subject. I can change it again.” She said with a look of worry on her face.
“You know…the day I realized that I was in love with you…it was the worst day of my life…” I said as I continued sniffling a little.
“That doesn’t make me feel better.” She said as I looked at her.
“It was the worst day of my life because I realized that I could never love anyone the way I loved you.” She smiled and looked down slightly. I smiled as I waited for her to look back up at me. “I don’t want to say yes, and you think its because of everything that has happened today. I want you to know that I love you more than anything. I don’t feel like I exist without you. Maybe that’s not completely healthy, but its true. I want to marry you because there is no one I would rather spend the rest of my life with than you.”
“I love you so much.” She said with a grin as she kissed me. “So, we are engaged then…”
“I guess so.” I said as she smiled at me. She pulled me in for another kiss as we sat there on the bathroom floor. “God, this day is so weird.”
“Yeah” she said laughing as she stood. “Come on.”
I took her hand as she pulled me up. We walked into the room as I watched her move around the room. I thought about what a shit day today had been. I don’t know if its because of that or the fact that looking at her right now…I see my future…but I don’t want to wait.
“Let’s do it now.” I said as she stopped and stared at me.
“Do what?” she asked with confusion. I smiled slightly.
“Get Married.” I said as she raised an eyebrow at me.
“What?” she asked me as I smiled at her. She gave me a look as I approached her.
“Hear me out.” I said as she crossed her arms. “I have waited literal years to be with you. I have known since forever that you are the only one meant for me and when I say I don’t want to wait another second…I mean it…I want to be married right now.”
“You’re serious.” She said with disbelief as I nodded my head.
“Deadly.”
“What about our friends and my family and…”
“We could still have a wedding with the ceremony and stuff…we would have to get the marriage certificate beforehand anyway…we just won’t tell anyone that we got married.”
“…and I thought I was a little crazy when I asked you…” she said as I grinned.
“Also, we are in France…arguably the most romantic place in the world. Why not get married when we are here on the verge of winning the world cup?”
“Some points are being made…”
“I’ll take the heat for not waiting…but I want to be married now…”
“Okay…” she said as I grinned. “Let’s get married.”
I grinned as she grabbed her jacket. We went to exit the room and ran right into Christen and Becky. Both gave me concerned looks as I shook my head.
“Can’t talk now. Got to go.” I said taking Alex’s hand in mine and moving past them.
“Hold it.” Becky said as I stopped and groaned. “Where are you going?”
“On a date.” I said as Becky gave me a skeptical look.
“Where are you really going?” Christen asked giving me a serious look. “Don’t lie. I’ll know if you lie.”
I looked to Alex who gave a slight head nod.
“We are going to get married.” I said as they both gave me looks.
“I said…don’t lie.” Christen said as I raised my eyebrows a little. She gave me a more serious look. “You’re serious?”
“Deadly.” Alex said as I nodded my head. “You can’t say anything though. It’s a secret.”
“Do you want to be our witness or witnesses?” I asked as they both stared at me.
“We came over here to make sure you were okay…because we knew that you were having a rough day…and now you’re getting married?”
“Yes…your point?” I asked as Alex gave me a look.
“Be nice.”
“You don’t feel like you’re rushing things?” Christen asked crossing her arms.
“Look, as long as she is still on board to do this…we are doing it. So, you can either come and be our witnesses or shut up about it. It doesn’t matter. All I know is I am getting hitched today.”
“Are you fucking crazy?” Christen asked as I frowned.
“Maybe a little.” I said as I looked to Alex who gave me a small smile. “Crazy in love.”
“Oh Jesus…” Becky said as I turned towards them.
“Look, I know you think this is crazy. I know you probably don’t approve, but I have never been surer of something I have wanted than this…she’s the love of my life. I know it and you know it. This is the right decision. It doesn’t matter if we get married now or tomorrow or even years from now…because the love I have for her is never going to change. I will never change my mind.”
They both gave me looks of concern before they sighed. They seemed to have a silent conversation before both nodding their heads.
“Do you even know where you’re going?” Becky asked as I looked to Alex who shrugged.
“No.”
“For fucks sake…” Christen mumbled pulling her phone out. A moment later she smiled as she turned her screen towards us. “This one has great reviews. They are also 24 hours so…”
“Then, what are we waiting for?” Alex said as I grinned at her. The four of us then went down to the lobby and exited the hotel. It wasn’t long be we were at the chapel. We quickly started filling stuff out as we filled out the documents we would need.
“Which one of you is changing your name?” Christen asked holding the paper.
“Me.” I said quickly as all three looked at me. “What?”
“Are you sure? You don’t have to.” Alex said as I nodded my head.
“I’m sure. I don’t need to keep my last name. There’s nothing good about my family. I don’t want to spend forever dwelling on what I don’t have. I’d much rather appreciate what I do have and build a better future for myself.”
“My last name it is then…” Alex said looking to Christen who had a small smile on her face. Christen was definitely coming around to this.
“Okay. That should be it.” Christen said handing us the paperwork to look at. We made sure everything was correct before turning it back in.
We waited for a bit before it was time for us to have the mini ceremony. We had changed into some more formal clothes as I was wearing a little suit and Alex had elected for a white dress. I stood at the alter waiting for Alex to walk down. Becky was next to me as Alex had chosen Christen to stand in place of a maid of honor type thing.
“This is crazy.” Becky said as I nodded.
“It sure is.” I said as music started to play. Christen came down first giving me a small look as I smiled at her.
I felt my breath get caught in my throat as Alex was next. She looked beautiful as I stared at her in amazement. She looked breathtaking now…I could only imagine what she would look like on the actual day when we have the big ceremony. Becky and Christen both moved a little and were filming on their phones as Alex and I stood facing each other.
The guy started talking going through all the traditional marriage stuff as I stared at Alex. She looked so good.
“Vows?” he asked us as I looked to Alex. She smiled at me shaking her head slightly.
“You know…the roads we took to get to this moment were really long. The pain we went through and the heartache we had to go through to find our way to each other. Almost unbearable, but I thank god every day that he brought you to me. After everything that happened, I didn’t think that I was ever going to find love again…find in someone who manages to be stubborn yet compromising. Someone who is so not sympathetic yet manages to be the most kind-hearted person I know. No one makes my heart beat the way you do. No one understands me the way you do. You have the softest heart of anyone I know and I can’t wait to get to spend the rest of my life getting to know everything about it. As dumb as it may sound, you are what makes my world spin. The sun and the moon don’t rise and fall unless I have you around. Everything is dull without you. I don’t ever want to go a day without your smile in my sight. Your touch sets my skin on fire and when you look at me it feels like I am standing in a spotlight. You make me feel like I can do anything and everything. I know that with you by myside, I’ll never be alone again. I am so unbelievably in love with you (Y/N) (Y/LN).”
“How the fuck am I supposed to follow that?” I asked as she laughed softly. “I’ve loved you for so long. I didn’t think I would ever get the chance to show that, but I knew I could love you better than anyone. I’ve said it before, but I am so serious when I say that the day, I realized I loved you, I knew I would never be able to love anyone else that way. The path to get to this moment hasn’t been easy. It’s been the most stressful thing, but every time I look at you, I know it was worth it. I know I would go down that path again just to make it back into your arms every single time. I don’t trust easily…but I trust you more than anyone…I know you don’t believe me when I say that, but it’s true. A lot of things don’t make sense to me…I’ve made more mistakes in my life doing what I thought was right…but I can confidently say that you make the most sense to me. I didn’t think I could ever open my heart like this, but this love is undeniable. The mere idea of ever being without it tears me apart. No one else has the power to hurt me, but I am right here giving it to you because I know my heart is safe. I am so unequivocally in love with you Alex Morgan. You’ve always been and will remain to be the greatest thing that I have had the privilege of loving.”
The officiator continued going through everything as we eventually were pronounced wife and wife. I grinned and pulled her into me giving her a kiss. She smiled as we leaned our foreheads against each other. We had on cheap rings that barely counted as rings as I made a silent promise to myself to get her a better one.
“Okay…like that was cute.” Christen said as I grinned. “I can’t believe you’re married.”
“Believe it.” I said as I grinned at Alex. “Also, send me the videos.”
We exited the chapel and made our way back to the hotel. I was ecstatic as we reached our room after making Christen and Becky promise not to say anything. I grinned at Alex as she was looking down at her phone. My wife. Jesus. I will never get tired of saying that.
“Babe come to bed.” I said as the forward looked up at me. She tilted her head a little as I opened my arms. She climbed into them resting her head on my chest.
“You know what I just realized…”
“hmm?”
“We didn’t have sex before marriage.” She said as I looked at her. “Though, not for a lack of trying. Because let’s be clear…I have tried.”
“God, I hope the sex is good…” I mumbled as she shot me a look, “Like not to be mean, but definitely grounds for divorce.”
She slapped my shoulder as I grinned at her. She leaned down and kissed me as I held her close. We had training tomorrow, so I knew for a fact she wasn’t going to want tonight to be our first.
“Where do you want to honeymoon?” I asked as she cuddled into my chest.
“We can talk about it. I think we might have to wait until the offseason to go on our honeymoon.”
“Yeah…I think so too.”
“We can make up for all the lost time when we do that…” she said giving me a small smile as I grinned at her.
“Yeah…maybe we should just go to a fancy hotel and then just never leave the room.” I said as she chuckled.
“I want to go somewhere cute.” She said as I nodded my head.
“You can pick a place. I’m not picky.” I said as she nodded.
“I know…do you have a preference on anywhere though…like tropical? Or something?”
“Anywhere we get to go swimming…it’s my favorite thing to do with you…”
“You just like stare.” She teased as I grinned.
“Yeah…have you seen you? My wife is the hottest woman I have ever seen.”
“Perv.”
“Yeah…well you married me…”
“I can’t believe we are married…” she said as she stared at me with a grin.
“Yeah…you don’t regret it do you?”
“Never.” She said kissing me. I smiled as we laid there for a few more minutes. I was enjoying just getting spend time with her. This day had started out being absolute crap. My dad had put all my business out there letting the whole world know that I had been disowned for being gay.
There were people supporting me and people saying it’s what I deserved. Mostly though I was gaining a lot of support. I keep asking myself why he would do this during the middle of the tournament, but then I remember that he doesn’t actually care about me. It’s hard to believe that there was ever a time when he did. I hadn’t seen anything about the rest of my family, and it makes me wonder if they even knew he was planning on doing that. My brother probably did and encouraged it, but my mom and sister. My mom has never been one to stand up to my dad or the things he did. I haven’t forgot that she had told me that she was sure I would grow out of it, but what about my sister? She had always done whatever she could to protect me. Did she know that he was going to expose me to the entire world? What if she had changed her mind about me? What if she also thought I was an abomination? It’s been a long time since she had talked to me so that really wasn’t a far-off thought…
The family I had wanted so badly…all I ever wanted was for them to accept me. I wanted them to tell me they loved me. Was that so wrong? To be loved by those who are supposed to love you. Family love is supposed to be unconditional, yet they threw mine away so easily. My mind started drifting towards Alex and the team as I continued thinking about family.
I had a family. It took me a real long time to realize that. I had Sebastian and Santiago who had taken me in without a second thought. They never let me go a day without knowing how much they care. The rest of the team had always been there for me too whether I knew it or not. My kids who had never really left my side when everything went down before. Even if they knew I was wrong, they didn’t leave my side. They made sure I was okay and that I had someone to talk to. They were teaching me to be more open and just to enjoy the life I have been given.
I had Becky who despite recognizing me as a whole mess, had never once turned me away. She had let me cry and feel the pain while also telling me how much of a good person I was. She let me be me without having to apologize for the parts of me that weren’t so great. She accepted me the way a mother should accept their child. I don’t think I could ever tell her that she reminds me of my mom though…that might be a little embarrassing and I just know she won’t let me live it down. And Christen, a relationship that is so complicated for me. I hurt her and broke her trust, yet she was still there for me never once making me feel like I was a bad person. Even when I devastated her…she always reminds me to stop and breathe and make sure I am okay before anything else. She accepted me into her life without a second thought. I really need to learn to be a better friend to her, because she deserves better than the bullshit, I put her through.
Then, there’s Alex. The girl I have loved for so long. The one I had known I needed the moment she entered my life. The spark between us and the way we interacted just made sense. No one has ever understood me that much that fast. She just seemed to get it whenever I spoke and the way she spoke just stole my whole heart. The way she looks at the world. The way she is a role model to those who look up to her. She worries so much about being a good person, but also just enjoying life. Life has been unkind to her. She’s told me before that she is damaged though I disagree. I am damaged though. Maybe that’s why we both are so drawn to each other. We have both had our hearts broken in half. So, together we make a whole. She’s my person. The one I will always need. Part of the reason I married her. I don’t know what the future holds for us given how hectic our lives are. I know though that I can’t wait to explore life now that I have her by my side for good.
“Hey…” Alex said softly reaching up and wiping a stray tear from eye. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” I said as she gave me a concerned look. “Just got lost in my thoughts.”
“Are you sure?” she asked as I nodded.
“Yea. I was just thinking about you and the girls and my boys…the family I didn’t know I had until recently.”
“Well…you and I are officially family forever so…” she laughed as I nodded
“Yeah I guess we are…and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love you Alex.” I said as she grinned at me leaning up to give me a kiss.
“I love you too.” She said as she gave me another kiss. She made sure our alarms were set for the next day. It was one more day of training and media before we would have to play against the Netherlands in the final. I was hoping I would be healed enough to play which according to Dawn. I should be so…I don’t know if I am more excited to get to play on my birthday, play with my wife, or play in a World Cup final…mark it as all of the above. All I know is, these next few days are going to be very interesting.
To Be Continued…

Okita's Route Part 2: Still on Kyoto Winds because I didn't realise that I'd ramble so much
Predictably, I'm enjoying Okita's route a lot more than Kazama's. Also, I'm skipping a lot less than when I played Kazama and Iba's routes, which makes a lot of sense because Okita is actually in the Shinsengumi and, therefore, gets a lot of screen time. So far, he acts like an asshole but this isn't backed up by his actions. Apart from the casual child cruelty X_X
Chapter, uh, 3? I think...
I feel like Hijikata sticking up for Sanan is just making things worse X_X . Saying that he's not useless because he's a swordsman is just plain wrong. It makes it seem like he's just saying it out of pity. I'm sure that Sanan has plenty to contribute, besides slicing people up.
"Sanan is quite the beloved member here, isn't he? It's nice to see such a tight-knit group." -_- Itou is such a master of shade. Gently implying that they only keep Sanan around because of their relationship. You evil bitch X_X
"Ugh, who brought those bastards into the Shinsengumi?" RIGHT?! Glad to see that Okita's not blindly following Kondou's lead here.
"He is easily deceived by silver tongues, those who appear virtuous... but are real scumbags." As the great Roisin Conaty once said: "Charming is just lube for evil." However, this is kind of backing up what those asshole kids were saying earlier about Kondou being an idiot X_X
SNOOP SNOOP 👀
AH! OKITA CAUGHT ME TALKING TO MYSELF! AGAIN X_X
"Trying to run away behind our backs." -_- You know that's not true.
"Heh, I'm just messing with you." No shit. "I mean, unless you were escaping, then I'll slit your throat." -_- You just couldn't resist the opportunity to throw out another casual death threat, could you?
Is he worried about my safety? I KNOW YOU'RE TRYING TO BE FLIPPANT BUT I SEE THROUGH YOU.
"Good girl." -_-
"It sounded like something out of a fairy tale." Oooooooooh hooooooneeeey... Have you not been paying attention?!
Welp, Okita told me to scream so... AAAIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Oh, apparently, not that... OKITAAAAA! Bet he loved that.
"Aaaaaaaaaaagh!" Everyone, please stop screaming.
Ngl, Sanan looks good with white hair.
Apparently, Okita likes hearing me screaming his name... Good to know...
"Don't worry your little head. It would be my pleasure to help you die." O_O ... Isn't that a little hasty!?!
"You're not serious, are you?" HONEY X_X
"It's really annoying, you know. You think you're part of the Shinsengumi?" </3 Ouch X_X You're the ones who took me prisoner, y'know? However, Chizuru does often act like she's the only one who cares about the Shinsengumi members, which must be annoying af.
"We only keep you alive because you're useful. You are NOT one of us." Uh... Thanks for calling me useful? But is that seriously your attitude? Anyone who's not useful to you should just die? -_-
"His words shattered my already breaking heart." Aw! </3 Poor Chizuru bae!
"Seriously... You can really be a pain, you know that?" RIGHT. BACK. AT. YOU.
"It'd be easier to just kill you," Broken record much?
"Had their last thoughts as men been hope they might survive the madness? It sounded horrible..." YUUUP.
"Sano! Make something up!" Definite DnD vibes again! When you make the low charisma character roll deception X_X
"You're a miserable actor. Keep your mouth shut." I'm sure that this exchange won't seem suspect at all X_X
"Oh, Sanan... Who cares what you are? You're alive!" Bless Kondou's pure and simple heart :')
"Yukimura, you go back to your room. I know you didn't sleep much." Why am I the only person in this game who requires sleep? -_- Just a trend I've noticed...
"*Cough* *Cough*" O_O OKITA, ARE YOU OKAY!??? O_O
"You owe us a lil' booze! Or maybe even, heh, a little... company?" WHERE'S OKITA'S MURDEROUS INSTINCT WHEN YOU NEED IT!?!?
"Suddenly I felt a hand on my arm." BWOOOOOOAAAARP!!! PHYSICAL CONTACT ALARM!!!
"Calm down, kid." ... NO. I HAVEN'T BEEN TOUCHED IN MONTHS.
"Hey hey hey! Looks like she's got the hots for you, Souji!" Oh Heisuke X_X
"No matter what, I won't buy Ishida Medical Powder." XD Got to admire Okita for staying true to his convictions :')
"I'm using the hell out of you" O_o Calm down, Hijikata X_X
Guess I'm going to have to put stalking Okita on hold for now...
Harada and Shiranui should just kiss already.
""Huh? Chizuru?" Okita looked up from cleaning his sword as I entered the hall." OH, HE WAS POLISHING HIS SWORD, EH? ;P YES, I AM TWELVE. Tbf, his face really does look like he's been caught in the act...
"Oh shut up, will you? It's all your fault. The medicine you gave me totally doesn't w..." >:( I'm hoping that the reason that sentence trails off is because I give him a verbal smack down!!
"*Cough* *Cough*" O_O WELL, I GUESS NOW I CAN'T CALL HIM A CUNT!
BLOOD O_O
"It's nothing." ... BOI!!
This game is totally a forcing-stubborn-men-to-rest simulator X_X
"I'd been given instructions to stay away" from the physical examinations but ho's gotta ho', amirite?!
"Oh my... So you WANT to see those savages? What peculiar taste..." Itou, don't call me out like this. Although, I still feel like we should respect their privacy X_X
"Oh! Oh..." ALRIGHT, YOU THIRSTY BITCH, CALM DOWN.
*Camera zooms in on Nagakura's tiddies* -_-
"Your body's fine, Shin." - Heisuke.
"Don't you wanna order a slice of this beef cake? I got two meaty servings on a plate, right here." Aaaaaagh! X_X My eeeeyyyeees.... Can't... un-read... sentence... please... fetch.... brain... bleach...
"A medical exam is for finding problems, not showing off. Now move." PREACH, SAITO!!!
"I feel like it's rude to intrude..." AND YET HERE WE ARE X_X
"It grants immortality" ??? Except for the part where you turn to ash???
"You're forcing your body in ways the eyes can't see." LISTEN TO THE DOCTOR, GUYS!!!
Everyone's just... RIPPING Takeda to shreds XD
"I'm scared shitless, believe me." :'( Poor Okita
No smart comments here... this is just really sad :'(
He's seen me? It's been nice knowing y'all...
Finally, Chizuru calls out Okita for threatening to kill her so much.
"Desist, you hooligans!" Sen is such a Queen! I want a Sen route!
Chizuru and Sen standing up to these arseholes is giving me LIFE! :') PREACH, GIRLS, PREACH!!!
"What were you going to do if they hurt you gravely?" Regenerate, biatch! >:)
"C'mon, was she that pretty?" UM, YES. But I think that she gives off too much of a domme vibe to be Okita's type :P
Chizuru is getting VERY distracted by Okita's hair. You know those scenes in movies where the woman takes down her hair and it's all slow motion and super sexy? This series has a lot of that. Plus when they get their Western makeovers :')
"That's funny... You don't LOOK like an especially nosy, hand-wringing version of my mother." XD I mean, -_- That totally wasn't hilarious.
"I grabbed his towel and began to scrub his head." ... We totally are his mother X_X
"I feel like I remember a time when you were nice and quiet..." NOT ANYMORE, BITCH! AND NOW, I'M ARMED WITH A TOWEL >:)
"You're really good with your hands." O_o ... What?
"You tied your hair up so quickly..." Why don't you show me what else you can do with them? ;)
Now he wants to know what I think of his hair? :/
OMG, HE'S TRYING TO COPY KONDOU'S HAIR XD I HAVE NO WORDS (for once)
Oh, you're surprised that I kept my promise? I'll have you know that I am an honourable woman, good sir! >:/
But Chizuru's claiming to only have done it out of fear of being sliced and diced? :/Uh, sure?
Chapter 4:
"They're small potatoes." This game has some excellent phrases in it X_X
Itou wanting to change the Shinsengumi uniform because it's not "fashionable" enough is the kind of genius that I'd expect from this game's most relatable character :') Although, I personally think that the blue uniforms are pretty <3
Awe, Chizuru thinks that Okita's joking about killing Itou :')
Kaoru just VERY BLATANTLY giving away that he was involved in the notice board incident X_X
:O I'm slightly jealous to discover that Okita's casual death threats aren't just reserved for me!
I get the sense that Okita knows that Kaoru's a boy but I'm sure that it wouldn't stop him if Kaoru was really a girl. Hooray for gender equality!
"I felt embarrassed for even doubting her for a second," O_e SERIOUSLY??!??
We're just going to let him go now!?!
Now Okita's having a coughing fit D: It was so stupid to run off and make him come after us :(
"What if she had accomplices nearby" GOOD. POINT. Chizuru would be so easy to lure into a trap X_X
"Without me around, you're just a useless kid." But I have a great personality! So, together, we almost make one complete, functioning adult :)
"Stop being so timid." I wish that I had that power :'(
"You can rely on us when you need to." Aweee! ^_^
"even compared to the weakest Shinsengumi foot soldier, I was pathetic." HEY. STOP THAT. WHAT DID I SAY? GREAT. PERSONALITY.
"Did you need something?" "Blood." O_O AH. Well, at least he doesn't beat about the bush! O_O
"What the hell? That's a little cold of you, having that pass for a good-bye, isn't it?" YEAH! :'( MIKI IS RIGHT! </3 :(
"Saburo. Watch your mouth." I'm sure that Miki is sad when Itou dies but 90% of their interactions are Itou telling Miki to shut up. X_X
"Is... Is that okay?" NO. IT IS NOT OKAY. SAITO AND HEISUKE ARE LEAVING, ALONG WITH LITTLE PIECES OF MY HEART. D'X
"would that mean I could never see them again?" *sobs*
"We're going to keep relations amicable between our two organisations." AHAHAHAHAHA HA.
"Okita...?" "... Hm? Damn." Uh, nice to see you, too?
"Next time we run into 'em, we'll probably have to kill each other." O_O Don't be so flippant, you ass :'(
"Swords don't think" damn, I didn't realise that you were sword-kin. Everyone thinks and has feelings. I'm sure that no power could convince Okita to kill Kondou.
"Takeda also left" and not one single fuck was given. :')
Just going to ignore Okita making fun of my "bed head" -_-
"I've come to take you" orly? ;)
"Look, lady, you're not part of the Shinsengumi, so I'd appreciate it if you could keep your nose out of our business." So, now that it's convenient for you, I'm part of the Shinsengumi? -_- I still haven't forgotten what you said before, asshole >:( Remember? HEART = BROKEN.
Sen knows that I'm a SLUT ^_^
"I can't tell if you have guts, or if you've got rocks for brains..." It must be the latter if I'm staying because of you XP
*Terrible decision immediately has lethal consequences*
LEMME GO! >:(
See Kazama post for my COLOURFUL feelings on this cunt >:(
Kondou can be so badass when he wants to be :')
Why... Hello there ;)
"Gotta admit, I didn't figure you for this type of girl." Then you haven't been paying attention ;P
Oh yeah: BWWWWWAAAAAAAARRRRP!!! PHYSICAL CONTACT ALARM!!! And then some X_X
"Didn't think I'd be getting pushed down into bed tonight, least of all by you." Oh yeah? Who else did you have in mind? Kondou? -_-
"Oh no! No no no!" Chizuru, we know you're thirsty and it's okay! Embrace the thot within! :')
"Tell me... How is it? On top of me. Does it feel good?" PLEASE SAY YES, PLEASE SAY YES, PLEASE SAY YES!
"I hadn't realised I was still on top of him." Uh-huh. Sure. And what a terrible shame that was.
"If I go out, Kondou will get mad at me." And then no more bum fun :( (me@me: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!??! me: XD Sorry)
"Okita's eyes shone with admiration for Kondou." X_X The fanfiction writes itself...
Just to be clear, I think it's pretty gross to ship people with their guardians, even if they're both adults at the time, because that's called GROOMING.
"He isn't going to need the Water of Life. I'll make sure of that." ... How, Hijikata?! He's literally DYING of tuberculosis!
And now he's not eating :'(
"I just don't want to. Is that really a problem?" Yes, because you'll starve to death.
"Hm, you are a doctor's daughter... Maybe you just can't leave a sick guy alone?" Or maybe I just don't want YOU to die, ass >:'(
I WILL MAKE YOU WHATEVER YOU WANT, JUST EAT IT!!! Ooooooh! He's blushing :O
He doesn't like bitter stuff but wants me to put grated radish in his porridge? O_o Well, I'm glad that he's cooperating :D
"I'm only going to eat it if it's delicious." Well, if you don't like it, I'll try again! :D
"Don't think I've given up or something." Okay D': <3
EAT THE FOOD, OKITA >:D
"It makes me feel good..." Hooray ^_^
"Could you keep me company for a while?" :O Okey! :)
"What would I talk about?" HELLO DARKNESS MY OLD FRIEND...
"He wasn't afraid to die," um, weren't you eavesdropping on his conversation with the doctor? -_-
"I want to help... But I'm getting weaker every day." Of course you do :'( This is more heartbreaking than him saying that you're not part of the Shinsengumi and just annoying DX
Maybe tell him that everybody likes having him around and that the Shinsengumi is where he belongs? Or, we could just leave him to wallow in misery... I guess that works, too X_X
"I couldn't see someone like Okita succumbing to a mere disease." ... Why, exactly? Is he supposed to fight it off with his sword or persuade it to fuck off with the force of his personality?
"He'll be fine. Right...?" NOOOPE.
SAITO 😍 I mean, uh, whatever... Totally not bothered at all...
WAIT, HOLD ON: SPY-TO. Yes, thank you. I am a genius :3
Finally murdering Itou for realskies! :')
I get that Hijikata and everyone are trying to look out for Okita but he's terminally ill. Keeping him out of the action is only going to keep him miserable until his inevitable demise. :'(
"Saito'll be here for a few days, so you'll have someone to play with." -_- Bit patronising, Hijikata X_X
Kazama being his usual, charming self X_X
Let's go find Okita and... Tell him to go back to bed? Okay...
What the fuck!?!! Kaoru!?!!
Do we ever get a decent explanation for why Kaoru was sent to live with some abusive fucks?
Kaoru... Why are you so short? I bet you were malnourished X_X
Okita's just watching this unfold, chomping on imaginary popcorn...
"Do you just plan to use her, like Kazama does?" O_o... I fucking hope not, because that would be INCEST!!!
"... No," OH, THANK GOD.
"What would you have done if I'd said yes?" Ugh, you said no already! Can we please move this conversation in a less incestuous direction X_X
"... No. You're free to take her." OKITA!!! HE'S MY BROTHER X_X Not that I'm expecting you to leap to my defense but this conversation is WEIRD as FUCK.
:O The Ochimizu! Is Kaoru trying to help Okita?! Misguidedly, but still.
"But... if their plan is to simply use my dear sister as some sort of demonic broodmare... I can't allow that to happen." ... Kaoru... :'O That's... Actually really sweet XO This is the first time that someone who claims to be part of my family has actually looked out for me :')
Oh, so Kaoru wants to use Okita to protect me from Kazama! I have a feeling that he's going to be disappointed if he thinks that Okita will do what he tells him to but I appreciate the gesture :')
"Please don't do anything that would hurt Kondou so, Okita." Ugh, even as he lies dying, he's supposed to be worrying about upsetting other people? >:(
"Okita the Fury; Okita the beast." X_X Bit harsh but okay.
"He had traded away his soul." Um, since when? XD
"Happy now, Kaoru Naguno?" "Yes I am." ... Fair.
"... For falling into my trap." Wait, what?!? O_O
"I'm happy I got to make my sister suffer." Kaoru, why? D': WE COULD HAVE HAD IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAA-AAA-AAALLL!!! DX
I'm glad that Kaoru did away with the Nagumo fuckers >:( But still, why take it out on me?!
Even dressed as a boy, Kaoru still looks prettier than Chizuru...
*Sigh* looks like I'm being choked, as usual X_X
I feel like Kaoru could easily have given Okita something much worse than the Ochimizu if he REALLY wanted to make me suffer.
"I'd run out of things to say." X_X Again?!
"This was my decision and I don't regret it." That is good to know :)
"You shouldn't get involved with a guy like me." Oh, here we go X_X
"That came out of nowhere," Too right!
"No" uh, does that mean "no, I won't get involved with you" or "no, I won't do as you say"???
Uh, is he crying?! "Hey! You can't just act like you're sick when you want something!" XD What the actual fuck is happening right now???
"I'm dead" ... Uh... Really? Because... You seem very much alive...
"I don't think Kondou wants you around just because he wants you to do things for him." FINALLY, some sense!
Aaaand, apparently, it's earned me The Unblinking Stare of Doom >:(
"Do you mind not trying to speak for Kondou." Do you mind not assuming that he's so much of an asshole that he'd kick you out just because you're inactive during the day?! >:(
"It's not like you're capable of knowing exactly how Kondou truly feels." YES, YUKIMURA!!! GET HIM!! >:D
"Do you think Kondou would still need me... Even if I can't hold a sword anymore?" YES.
"You're right." I know :3
"I'm just jealous of you, Okita, that you have someone like Kondou by your side." Yeah. >:'( Fuck you, Kaoru, fuck you, Kodo :'(
"Oh yeah, huh... I totally forgot." Ffs, Okita XD
"They just happened to be there when you were born, you know?" Yeah! >:( And they can all go to hell!
"Somehow, my chin had acquired something of an arrogant tilt" yaaaas! You live your best life, girl! Let go of the haters, cut out the negativity! Stick it to 'em!
Chapter 5:
"How dangerous could foreign weapons be?" Oh, my sweet, Summer Sanan X_X
"Why are you going on night rounds with us?" ... Wait, what?! Why am I going on night rounds?
AS IF putting myself in danger is going to help Okita in any way X_X
DAMN, KONDOU... Nice, uh, blood you're accessorising with, there. O_O MEDIC!!!
"Lucky for us, they're idiots." Hooraaaay!
Okita's not going to be happy when he sees this...
Speak of the devil...
HIJIKATA, STOP BEATING ABOUT THE BUSH.
"I thought for a moment that Okita was going to grab Hijikata and shake him." :O :D Please yes!
Okita is suuuuuper keen to blame Hijikata for this -_-
"If he dies, it's your ass in the fire, Hijikata." Another excellent image but this pointless conversation has gone on for too long X_X
"I will find you, no matter where you may be, and I will kill you." O_O OKITA!! I THOUGHT THAT YOU SAID YOU WERE CALM!!! Bloody hell X_X
Oh no... What has Okita done now X_X
Killing spree, mad science, aggressive interrogation, Hijikata murder? The possibilities are endless with this stabby boi.
Where exactly am I running to? "I had finally found him." HOW?! With the power of love?! O_o
Looks like "Killing spree" it is X_X
"I'm about to murder you." Ffs Souji X_X
"I'm just doing my job." OH YEAH?!? THEN WHY DID YOU FEEL THE NEED TO GO BEHIND EVERYONE'S BACKS, HUH?!
"What's wrong with me doing what I'm doing?" Yeah, what's wrong with sadistically slaughtering a bunch of virtually defenceless men as they attempt to retreat?! -_-
"I just killed people, no matter who it was, as long as it was what Kondou wanted." *Sigh* Kondou's not going to be around for ever, you know? X_X Maybe TRY think about why your doing what you're doing. Maybe learn from Kondou's example?
"Do not ever act out and worry the chief like that again." XD You tell him, Saito!
"Idiots." XD Hijikata
"I didn't wake up until evening had arrived." Oh look, it's me :)
OH, FUCK. That looked like a Kaoru silhouette :O
Why do they keep saying that Kaoru "tricked" Okita into drinking the Water of Life?! Kaoru offered it and Okita drank it. No trickery here!
"They wanted to avenge Itou. You remember him? The man you deceived and murdered?" XD Can't argue with that :')
"shoot the weaker target first." UGH. Why do I always get SHOT!?!
"Call me what you want." Oh, I intend to 3:)
Omg, I didn't get shot! :O BECAUSE OKITA USED HIMSELF AS A HUMAN SHIELD O_O ... BUT WHY?!??
NO, DON'T CHECK UP ON ME! WE NEED TO MOVE BEFORE WE GET SHOT AT AGAIN!!!
Oh no! O_O Doesn't look like he'll be moving any time soon O_O
"Okita! Okitaaaaa!" O_O
"It kills me to see you hurt, just as much as it kills you to see Kondou hurt!" O: <3 :'(
"What an idiot.. " No, Kaoru! You're the idiot! Because you will never be happy while you continue down this sadistic, evil path, wasting your own life trying to destroy someone else's and refusing to let go of your spiteful jealousy >:( At least Okita's risking his life for something good.
"The more despair and anger you feel, the more you look like me." ... Silver linings! :)
D: Did they use silver bullets?! :O
Wait, when did Yamazaki get wounded?! :O
Bless Hijikata for letting me stay with my crush XD
Final Chapter:
Yamazaki is fine :D Hooray!
"They need men, so we need to go now..." Uh... Then why aren't you dressed? X_X
"... I want you to remain calm as I tell you this." That is... NOT AN ENCOURAGING WAY TO START A CONVERSATION O_O
D': Inoue has fallen. :'( It hurts every time DX
Aw, he looks really sad :'( and no wonder...
"as soon as we arrive, I'm gonna swing my sword at anyone and everyone." Uh... That's the spirit X_X
ONWARDS TO EDO

The Fan (Chapter 7)
Warnings - Talks about hate comments and death threats, Slut shaming, mentions of dead animals, this is when the story starts to get really dark, please be careful and read at your own discretion . I’d rather have my blog 18+, but I know I can’t stop anyone from reading.
More trouble for the girl group, Bloom!
The TV hosts cheerfully announced, screenshots of Y/N and Hongjoong in his bed, photos of Aya at a bar, a drink in one hand and grinding on a random guy, Chinsun and Yunhee coming out of another company behind both of them
I’m your host Yoo Yunha.
And I’m Kim Hyunlee
And today on Koreaboo TV, we’re going to be talking about the once-great girl group who was said to be Itzy’s rivals. The newest scandal for this unlucky group is a sex tape between Bloom’s Y/N and Hongjoong, the nephew of their manager, Jieun.
Y/N have sat in front of the TV, sobbing. The news had been attacking the entire group so much, that Aya, Sanghee and Yunhee have been moved to Jieun’s house while Chinsun and Y/N stayed with Haeun and Hongjoong. Y/N’s phone kept vibrating, all of the tweets that the Bloom Twitter have been tagged in causing the commotion.
Fans have started trending the hashtag #WhereIsYunhee because she seems to be the only one who has stayed away from any of the drama, but Thorns, Bloom antifans, are getting ready for the youngest member to screw up.
You’d think the company would be smart and just disband the girls, but I suspect there’s going to be a new member added or if they do disband, one of the members will go solo.
I have my money on Y/N. She seems like she has no regard for anyone else but herself. I mean a sex tape while your group is in the middle of a stalking scandal? What’s her excuse? Did she know she was being filmed? If she did, was she doing all of that on purpose to piss off her fans? I feel bad for that Milton boy who has been there for her since pre-debut and she repays him in dirt.
Y/N’s sobs were getting louder, alerting Chinsun who had been sitting at the top of the staircase, scrolling through Twitter and seeing all of the hate comments and death threats directed to Y/N.
And if you’ve seen the tape, you’ll know that she was just using him. She had no emotion or feelings in it. How would you feel if you slept with someone who had no feelings for you and was just using you as a dildo?
I’d feel pretty bad. And apparently Y/N’s fansites are feeling bad as well, they’re closing by the hour, some expressing their disappointment for her while others have jumped ship to
“So, you’ve been fucking Hongjoong?” Walking into the room, Chinsun scolded Y/N, disappointment written in her body language, “are you the one who suggested we stay here just so you can get your rocks off?”
“Chinsun, no. It’s just something that happened that night,” Y/N stood up, her legs weak from sitting the whole day, “I was stressed and Hongjoong was there and it was his idea.”
“Y/N, the camera was on, how did you no-”
“How do we know that Milton didn’t hack the camera? I don’t know why everyone is going after me when that guy is so fucking creepy. Have you not seen the letters on his page? That’s not normal, Sunny.”
Chinsun saw the genuine emotion in Y/N’s eyes, pulling her member into her arms as Y/N begun to cry again. Hongjoong saw the event, a gray cloud of guilt hanging over his head, leaving to meet his friends.
A few moments later, Hongjoong met his friends outside the photo studio, people in hazmat pulling out three dead animals from the vents, San and Yunho furious at the past few days.
“Whoa, why are they here? And why does Yunho look like he’s about to snap someone’s neck?”
“Milton somehow got into the studio and hid dead animal carcasses in the air vents,” Seonghwa bit his tongue, taking photos of the incident, “We came in to edit some photos, maybe film a dance cover and the smell once we opened the door made us all gag. Yeosang actually went home because he felt so sick.”
“Milton sent me a letter saying shut down my fansites or he’ll start going after me. I’d rather give up photography than my life,” Yunho bit his cheek, “I want to meet that bastard and throw him into the ocean with a cinderblock attached to his ankles.”
“Whoa, dude, easy there.”
“No, Hongjoong, Yunho shouldn’t have to be ‘easy there.’ This fucker wants to act like a prick, fine. But now he’s trying to go after everyone and for what? What does he get out of this?” San snapped, his voice more aggressive than it’s ever been in the years Hongjoong has known him, “Hey Yunho, Seonghwa, let’s go to my house. Maybe we can edit photos there. We’ll see you later, Hong.”
Hongjoong watched the three boys leave, the hazmat people packing up and driving away. A smirk appeared on the boy’s face, pulling out a white jasmine from his bag, picking the petals as he walks home.
Getting home, Hongjoong walked into his room, Y/N asleep on the bed, her eyebags much more noticeable. He walked over to her, brushing the colored hair extensions out of her face. Gliding to the other side of the bed, Hongjoong took off his outerwear and pants, leaving him in a t-shirt and boxers as he spooned Y/N, the girl waking up with a gasp of air.
“Hongjoong?”
“Shh, yes. Just calm down, I got you.”
Y/N spun around, meeting Hongjoong nose to nose. He continued to stroke her hair, twirling it in his fingers. Y/N curled into his chest, crying as Chinsun walked in.
“Am I interrupting something?”
“No,” Hongjoong tried to hide the annoyance in his voice, “Y/N actually just woke up.”
“Give her a few minutes and tell her to get downstairs, she needs to eat. At least some crackers or some soup. Not eating isn’t good and she needs to keep up her strength for tomorrow.”
Hongjoong kissed Y/N’s cheek before standing in front of Chinsun, an oddly intimidating aura about him causing the idol to take a step back, “What’s tomorrow?”
“Jieun is taking Y/N to the police, see if they can figure out any sort of clues to who this Milton guy is,” Chinsun tilted her head, Hongjoong panicking and wondering if Chinsun knows, “They want Y/N since he seems the most interested in her. Your mom thinks it would be better if Y/N slept in the open guest room now.”
“I’ll let her know.”

Imagine
Sirens Calling Pt. 2
Dylan Sauge (Tidelands) x Reader
...
Your return to Orphelin Bay takes a turn for the worst when you become the centre of attention after your cousin Cal is found to be a Tidelander. Thrown into a challenging situation, secrets are uncovered and the mysteries of the Tidelanders are brought to light.
====================
Dylan was sprinting towards the tree line intent of finding you. His thoughts were clouding his judgement. So much so he didn’t hear the blonde goddess call his name until he was behind the tree you were curled up against.
The rise and fall of your chest increased as you saw his hand loop against the tree’s trunk, ready to inspect behind it.
His movement, however, was frozen as he turned to face his queen. Had she been following him?
“What is it you are doing?” She inquired, as she held one of the dead mans eyeballs up, her steady gaze on Dylan.
“Nothing my queen.” Dylan answered as he walked towards her at the edge of the water. Silently he cursed himself for not disposing of the remains when he found them. Or doubling back to make sure he wasn’t being followed.
“Well if you don’t mind, return to L’Attente. Lamar will be needing some help controlling the crowd for tonight’s festivities.”
Her steady gaze never left his. Challenging him to refuse and continue in the quest to find whatever had him so riled up.
However, Dylan was growing aware of her manipulative ways. And with all the strength he could muster walked past Adrielle towards L’Attente without looking in the direction of where (y/n) was hiding. “Of course, my queen.”
With Dylan gone it was now Adrielle you needed to hide from. A sudden wave of further anxiety washed over you knowing she would find you much easier.
“I know you’re here.” She softly hummed, once again inspecting the eye before looking at the tree line for you.
Her voice sickly sweet as her bare feet trod softly against the sand
“We can do this the easy way, or the hard way (y/n). Which do you prefer?”
You shook. There was no escape. No scrunching of the eyes and wishing for the ground to swallow you up would turn your reality into something better. You were caught. You were probably going to endure the same terrible things as your cousin Cal.
Lost in a trance of worry which had frozen your shaking form it wasn’t until a hand clasped around your neck did you return to reality.
Cold sharp nails dug into your neck as another hand latched onto your hair. A disgruntled yell left your lips as pain coursed through your scalp. Your hands flew to her hand attached to your hair. Frantically clawing at it to let go.
She had strength however. More than you realised.
Quickly she had you on your knees in front of her. Both her hands moved to your hair and just as quickly as she captured you with her talons your eyes closed as the world went black. Your head was thrust against the tree trunk and you were out cold.
-----
The world was black. The bag over your head was black. The boot of the car was black. The world outside, black. A state of perpetual darkness where you could no longer see anything in the world.
The confides where you were jostled, throwing you around in the small space. Tires screeched as the vehicle you were in swerved to the side before coming to a stop.
Your head flew to the side as the car turned the corner, hitting the back of your skull against the stiff metal edge. A throbbing sensation reverberated through your skull as the already pulsing sensation became overwhelming.
Your eyes closed, your brain was beginning to slow, processing the situation became harder. Your mind becoming fuzzy.
Music pulsated in the background. Joyous laughs and mumbled speech of tens of people captured your fading attention to the celebratory atmosphere playing on outside the car.
The Sound of the boot popping open drew a breath out you had unknowingly been holding in. Two pairs of strong large hands clasped around your bare arms.
The singlet shirt and boy shorts you’d dressed into for bed before your kidnapping were no match for the cool air that swept over your body as you were yanked from the small box.
A shiver ran down your spine as your bare feet touched the cold jagged gravel below. Weak knees gave way and you fell to the ground. Grunting in discomfort, you winced as you were pulled back up straight. A trickle of liquid, probably blood, ran down the front of your legs and over your feet.
Suddenly your ears picked up the noise. Or lack thereof. The surrounds were quiet; eerily quiet, aside for the few mumbles and whispers that travelled to and fro as you were walked t what felt like a wooden step.
Just as quietly a pair of heels clicked their way from behind you, coming to a halt at your side. Long cold fingers wound their way across your shoulders and hooked onto your singlet shirt strap. The bag over your head was pulled forcefully away; scraping against the open wound next t your eye from where your head had been smashed against the tree trunk.
Fresh blood trickled from the cut, falling onto your white shirt and staining it crimson.
Your chin was caught in the tight talon grip of Adrielle and pointed towards the growing crowd of Tidelanders.
“My people.” Adrielle spoke with authority. “Let this be a lesson to you all. Those who refuse me, deify me, challenge me, will be met with consequences.”
She was trained on speaking to the crowd. However, as her tight grip on your hair raised your swelling eyes you noticed a pair staring back at you.
He held his head high, eyes wide as he refused to break the contact between you both. Your own eyes, however, were growing weary. Eyelids becoming heavy as sleep beckoned. The pain that reverberated throughout your entire body began to numb.
Hence, when Adrielle kicked your knees out from beneath you and you fell to the ground with her talons still rapped in your hair, you never felt the pain as she dragged her blade down the front of your collarbone and chest; piercing the skin and shredding the singlet covering your bra and naked form.
Your eyes were glazed over, focusing on nothing but the blur of the surrounds. Void of noise, of movement and emotion, blood wept from the fresh wound and a single tear escaped from the corner of your eye and rolled down your bloodied cheek until it hit the wooden deck below.
Disregarding Adrielle’s annoyance to your response and your bodies effort to keep you in reality, your mind began to shut down. The world around you once again falling into darkness as Adrielle let go of your hair and your body slumped down onto the ground.
-----
Sunlight shone softly on your face. Your eyes fluttered open as they admired the golden rays. Where you in heaven? Had your body given up in its fight for survival?
Your attempts to sit up answered your questions when your body gave way and you fell back onto the soft mattress you were laying on. A disgruntled groan left your lips as your body began to ache. Sharp pains echoed throughout. The room began to spin, and you reached your hand up to clutch your head feeling the damp bandages wrapped around your forehead.
A noise from another room made your hairs on your arms stand tall. Your eyes were now wide, observing your surrounds. An unrecognisable bed, or room for that matter was where you were laid. However, the decorations and colour were likeable to a Tidelanders.
Nerves began to take over your body again as you searched for anything on the nightstand to act as a weapon. Who knew what wandered the room outside the bedroom door? Or who wandered them?
Just as your fingered grasped for the glass of water on the bedside table the door creaked open to in fact reveal a Tidelander. Or more specifically, Dylan.
Your eyes grew wide in worry and anxiety of what he might do to you. The little remaining water was thrown out the glass as you threw it in the direction of him. He ducked behind the door, just in time for the glass to smash against the wall right next to where he was stood previously.
“Woah.” He speaks calmly, hands in surrender next to his face as he trends slowly into the room. “Calm down (y/n), it’s just me.”
“Where am I-.” You croak out, throat dry and tired. “What happened?”
“I will explain everything but-.” Dylan begins but you cut him off.
Your breathing becomes rapid and your eyes swell with tears. “No! What do you want from me?” You bring both your hands up into fists at your chest.
His eyes go soft as they concentrate on your breaking resolve. “(y/n),” he sighs, hands coming down to his sides, “just let me fix the bandage on your face”.
Your hand brushed up to the bandage above your eye. It was soaked, and as you brought your hand back down you noticed the crimson blood that had seeped onto your skin. A light trickle of blood began to run down your cheek and onto the clean grey shirt you were wearing.
All resolve broke as the tears that had been building overflowed and ran down your face. Sobs racked your chest as your head fell back down on the pillow with your hands covering your eyes.
The mattress dipped next to your hip and warm fingers gingerly pulled your hands away from your face. Still clutching them in his lap. His face was directed past you. Attention focused on the nightstand. He opened his mouth as to say something but just as quickly shut it. After taking a gulp he turned his head slowly and his warm eyes met your teary ones.
“Let me help you (y/n).” He whispered. “Please.”
