Addy/Keely fic for Helicopter by Maisie Peters?

i was genuinely screaming when i got this ask because tbh this is a perfect song for them since i’ve always thought of addy as constantly taking risks/doing something stupid and keely is just like ??? and if this seems mildly unhinged it’s because I haven’t slept in over a day i’m running on coffee, also half of the weird things addy does in this have been attempted by my boyfriend so he’s the crazy one not me

Babe, without me, you are just so defenseless

For motorbikes and girls who might try break your heart

When Keely heard Addy had gotten a motorcycle to match Nate she nearly had a heart attack.

"You want to drive a motorcycle?" she had asked incredulously.

"Yeah, what's wrong with that?" Addy had responded, the picture of innocence. As if she hadn't nearly gotten run over by a shopping cart the day before.

"Addy! No offence but you're not exactly the most coordinated person in the world," Keely had said, gently grasping Addy's hand in hers.

"Pshaw," Addy had said, literally waving her hand in the air as if dismissing the fear. Keely didn't know if she was supposed to laugh or cry.

Now, as Keely clings to Addy as they drive her motorcycle to Nate’s apartment to show him, and Addy nearly swerves as she turns to tell Keely about the last girl who nearly broke her heart.

“Addy watch out!” Keely screams as Addy straightens.

“Whoops. Sorry!” she calls over her shoulder, wavering again. Keely leans her helmeted head on Addy’s back. This is going to be a long drive. 

So I'm pretty sure that I should make you breakfast

“Breakfast time!” Addy calls the next morning, jumping on the couch where they had falling asleep after their movie night and pulling Keely out of a deep sleep. 

“What did you make?”

Addy hesitates for a moment before answering: “Pancakes!”

“Great,” Keely responds, following Addy out of the room, passing the kitchen on her way to the bathroom. She glances into the kitchen and does a double take. “Addy! What did you do?”

Keely steps into the kitchen, her mouth hanging open. The counter is covered with flour and egg shells are scattered on the floor. A pool of milk is steadily dripping onto the floor.

“Addy what did you do?” Keely repeats in shock. 

Addy peers into the room, resting her head on Keely’s shoulder. “Oh I was playing music and was kind of in the zone. Also the pancakes burned.”

“So why did you tell me you made breakfast?” Keely turns to see Addy’s puppy eyes. 

“Fine, I’ll make you pancakes.”

And then I should never leave the front seat of your car

Keely is still gripping the handle of Addy’s car when she pulls up in front of Keely’s parents’ house. Addy had been jamming out to Britney Spears for the entirety of the ride, scaring Keely. 

“Are you going anywhere after you drop me off?” Keely asks.

“Yeah to Contigo. Why?”

“I think I’ll stay here, make sure you don’t do something stupid.” Keely re-buckles herself.

You are important so of course it maddens me

When you're nonchalant about your own mortality

“Why are you always so worried about me?” Addy asks as she merges back on the road smoothly.

“Because you don’t seem to care that half the stuff you do is going to get you killed!” 

“No they’re not,” Addy says. “When have I even done anything stupid?” Keely opens her answer, but Addy cuts her off. “You know what, don’t answer that.”

As Addy turns to look Keely, she nearly swerves onto the sidewalk. “Watch out!” Keely nearly screams. Addy straightens the car, a look of hurt on her face. Keely doesn’t yell. Not normally. Keely sighs and laces her fingers with Addy’s free hand - something that normally Keely would insist against. 

“Sorry Adds. It’s just you’re so casual about this stuff and I really love you. I can’t deal with you getting yourself killed because you wanted to see what Cooper’s head looked like from the top by climbing a wall.”

Addy snorts. “That was pretty epic.”

“You could have just asked him to bend down,” Keely says, ignoring her.

“Yeah but it was epic,” Addy insists as she parks across the street from Contigo. Keely shakes her head at her.

Please be more careful when you cross the road

They’re about to step onto the street when a car comes flying, and Keely pulls Addy back into her.

“Whoa are you okay?” Keely asks.

“Yeah, I’m good. But I bet I could have jumped onto that car like they do in action movies.”

You're a perfect arrangement of rickety bones

They’re about to start walking again when Addy’s knee pops. Keely looks at her sideways.

“Right. Defiantly could have jumped onto a moving car,” she says. Addy snorts as she takes Keely’s hand in hers. 

So forgive me

If I hover close

Addy is finally settling into the swing of things at Contigo when she turns to head to the kitchen and crashes into Keely. 

“Keely! What?”

“Sorry! I’m sorry. I just need to make sure you weren’t going to spill those nachos on yourself.”

I'm a helicopter

'Cause I love you so

“You’re like the girlfriend version of helicopter parents.” Addy is torn between adoration and annoyance.

“Only because I love you.”

“I know,” Addy says with a smile, leaning forward to kiss her. 

Oh, bear with me

Darling, you should know

“That tray isn’t too heavy though?” Keely asks as Addy emerges from the kitchen.

I'm a helicopter

'Cause I love you so

“I’m fine, helicopter.”

“Love you!” Keely calls, her cheeks creasing into a smile.

Addy sticks her tongue out over her shoulder. 

It's not interfering if you can't be trusted

To treasure that heart like I do

“Are you sure Addy isn’t going to go insane with your interfering?” Luis asks, following Addy out of the kitchen. 

“Luis. It’s not interfering if she can’t be trusted to take care of herself like I can.”

Luis raises his eyebrows at her.

“Come on you’re really telling me you never take away Maeve’s coffee when she’s had too much?”

“Touché,” Luis says, nudging his shoulder against hers. 

Your sense of danger is antique and rusted

And mine's laser sharp, oh, when it comes to you

“So would it be dangerous if I tried to untie myself from chains upside down like a magician?” Addy asks casually as they lay in bed one night.

“Yes!” Keely says firmly.

“Okay great so I’m not taking Nate up on that dare.”

“No, no you’re not. Also care to explain to me why I had to pick you up from the hospital because you had M&Ms in your nose?”

“Not really,” Addy says. 

“Was it a bet?”

“No! Possibly... yes.”

Keely sighs and pulls Addy closer, running her hands through her short hair. “Next time you try to do something stupid, check in with me first okay?”

“Deal,” Addy mumbles sleepily into Keely’s shoulder. 

When you wait for a train, don't cross the yellow line

“Don’t cross that line,” Keely says, pulling her back. They’re at the train station. 

“Helicopter,” Addy mumbles under her breath as she snuggles Keely.

Don't run with scissors, and don't text and drive

“Addy! Are you running and holding scissors?” Keely asks as she enters Maeve and Bronwyn’s living room.

“Yes. I’m trying to make this poster making thing efficient.”

“By getting yourself stabbed to death?”

“No! By making sure Cooper has great posters.”

“Blood doesn’t make for good poster decorations,” Keely says dryly as she pulls the scissors out of her girlfriend’s hand and handing them to Kris.

“Okay fine, can I have my phone back?”

Keely fishes a hand in her purse. “Yes sorry.” She hands the phone back. 

“Let me guess,” Addy says, talking over Keely. “Don’t text and drive?”

“You got it,” Keely says with a grin.

Call me the minute you get to your dad's

I'll be worried all night and I won't wanna ask

Addy hugs Keely tightly at the airport. Addy’s going to Chicago to visit her dad, and she’s getting anxious. 

“I love you,” she says into Keely’s hair.

“I love you more,” Keely insists, wrapping her arms around Addy’s waist.

“I’ll call you when I get there.”

“Because you’ll miss me?”

“Because I don’t want you to worry.”

“Yeah,” Keely says, pulling away and putting her hands on Addy’s shoulders, studying her face. “You’ll miss me.”

So forgive me

If I hover close

“How was the trip?” Keely asks a week later, as she stands at the airport parking lot in front of her car. 

“Good!”

“Was your dad okay? Your stepmom? Your stepbrother?” 

I'm a helicopter

'Cause I love you so

“Gosh girl, chill with the questions. You know I don’t like them.” Addy slams the passenger door shut, trying to forget how much she liked building tours with her seven year old brother. 

“I know. But I also know that deep down you do.”

Oh, bear with me

Darling, you should know

“What are you, a psychic?” Addy asks, never able to stay mad at the girl she adores so much. 

“Nah, just your girlfriend.”

I'm a helicopter

Addy grins and pulls Keely in for a kiss. “Even better... helicopter.”
