Hummingbird Has Landed

Marcus Pike x female reader Co-written with @absurdthirst

After the debacle of his failed engagement and relocating to Washington to take charge of his task force, newly minted Special Agent Marcus Pike is ready to get back out into the dating pool once more. A slew of bad dates has him feeling a little down, and he takes an old friend up on an invitation to get away and get his head on straight. Imagine his surprise when he finds not only fresh air, but his soulmate as well - hiding in plain sight but in the unlikeliest of places.

This story takes place shortly after the events of The Mentalist and with that timing in mind. Reader's mother is elected in November of 2016 and the story starts after she has taken office.

Thank you so, so much to everyone who participated in the voting for the next soulmate story! We really can't thank you all enough, or say just how much fun we had making the choice of story interactive.

There was such an outpouring of positivity and enthusiasm, that we couldn't see to only write one of the stories that you all voted for. In fact, we're going to write the top three:

Marcus Pike x His Innkeeper will be first Javier Peña x His Journalist will be second Joel Miller x His Bar Owner will be third

It's going to be a very exciting year for soulmate stories!

I’ve been home for almost 24 hours now and I still can’t believe everything that happened this weekend....

In February, I had promised myself for my 30th birthday this year, I would do one thing just for me. No questions asked. No wondering if it was too expensive. No second guessing myself. No fear holding me back.

Flash forward to about a month ago, Robin was confirmed as a guest at the June Spookala convention in Ocala, Florida. I knew that this was the thing I was gonna do. As soon as I saw it, I knew. Like a light switch was instantly flipped in my brain.

I’m going to put all of the details under the cut because I don’t want to fill up your dash with a super long post BUT I will say she is even more sweet than you would think. The time she takes with every group, talking to them, listening to them, making them feel comfortable is just so heart warming. I saw it at the auto table and in the pro picture booth. It was just genuine care.

To say that my heart is full after this weekend would be an understatement.

OK so these are all the details, that even to me have a major plot twist ending (I mean I’m still not sure it actually happened)

FRIDAY: I had made a poster myself to get signed because you guys know I can be a lil extra :) Plus I just felt like for me it would be more special. It is a watercolor collage of a good portion of her works. This was a horror con so most people are here to see her because of the craft (great movie) but I think as soon as she saw the poster, she might of realized I was here as a fan of her/her work over all as opposed to a fan of her in that specific movie. She loved it and asked if she could take a picture of it, which was fine with me. As she was signing, I was going back in forth in my head whether or not to show her my tattoo. But I quickly realized that I would be going against the true meaning behind it if I didn’t say anything. So I explained it to her (tattoo here & inspo here) and she told me she loved it and that it was so sweet and asked if she could take a picture of that too, which again, no problem here. I also did my pro photo on Friday which comes with a long story of it’s own but I’m gonna keep that one private (if we’re moots and you wanna know just message me!)

SATURDAY: This was a very busy day so I was just wondering looking at all the amazing vendors the show had (I bought so many stickers and a few pins). I did this a bit all days but couldn’t do it for long because all I wanted to do was buy all the things!!! I also did a little local exploring.

SUNDAY: I decided to hold off and get the jersey dress replica signed (partly because I wasn’t sure if I was actually going to do it) but I decided that I wanted to do it. My plan from the beginning was that I would get it signed and framed to auction off for charity. It is not beyond me that me even having the opportunity to do this is a privilege that not everyone has, so this was the best way I knew how to honor that and give back. When I got there, she remembered me (ngl that threw me) and we just started talking again and we started talking about edits, since now she had signed 2 things that I made. I told her about tumblr and @tmsource​ and how there are still a lot of the mentalist fans out there that are active now on many platforms. She said how talented we all are, everyone who makes edits, because she does see them. And she does like them! I told her my plans for the jersey dress and if she just wanted to shout out a charity on insta, I would see it at some point and make sure all proceeds of the jersey go to that charity. There was some more talking that I’m gonna keep for me but at the end she got up and said I have to give you a hug, which was so sweet :)

Here comes the twist..... Sunday night after I got myself all packed up since I was hitting Magic Kingdom in the morning before my flight and needed to get on the road early, I decided to do the insta post. You know to mark the end of the weekend. I tagged her in it because of course I thought she might see it, and see that I was very grateful for her time this weekend. I’ve had a not so great relationship with instagram in the past so after a full year of not having it on my phone except for a few times where I literally downloaded it, made a post and deleted it again, I hadn’t been using it. Just a few months ago had I decided to leave it on my phone, but I kept notifications off. After a few min, I get a text from a friend that just said omg britt. Of course I was confused, and was just like ??? They said look at instagram. She had liked and commented on my post. Of course I was shocked because even though when you tag someone you hope they see it, you know that it’s not a high probability of it actually happening. I replied and thanked her again for her time this weekend, and dropped a lil reminder about the charity recommendation for the jersey. (bonus fact, I almost deleted the comment when I tried to pin it, not a good time for me) I just kept thinking about how sweet it was that she was interacting with people who had been at the con after giving 3 whole days to everyone. Got on twitter, freaked out it a lil, then went back to insta to close the app out and I had more notifications. AND THIS IS WHAT I SAW......

I still don’t have words if I’m being honest. (context for the comment is in the last video on the post) I’m just still so grateful for this whole weekend. I’m grateful for my friends that helped me through it even if they were miles and miles away. I’m grateful for the privilege to even be able to do something like this. I’m grateful for Robin’s generosity. Just so grateful. 

If you’ve made it this far, I love you. You’re a real one :)

Sorry, show's over, folks. Every First Time can't continue because this episode (07x07, The Mentalists) pissed me off so much that I can't even begin thinking on a way to turn this into something sweet, hot, and/or gay.

So this is after Sam finds out Dean killed Amy in the previous episode, right? And Dean is so butthurt that Sam is still mad at him. It's super embarrassing for him. When Dean coincidentally runs into him as breakfast joint near the beginning, Dean manages to babble out 141 words before Sam manages even one. And when he does:

SAM: "Dean--" DEAN: "Oh, he speaks."

Like, what the hell? What are you, Dean, a parent whose kid doesn't talk to them anymore after they turn 18 because of constant comments like that? And then there's this little exchange:

DEAN: "Look, I get it. There are certain people in this world, no matter how dangerous they are, you just can't." SAM: "Don't pull that card! That's bull. Look, if I've learned one thing, it's that if something feels wrong, it probably is!" DEAN: "Usually, yeah. But killing Amy was not wrong. You couldn't do it, so I did. That's what family does--the dirty work. And I woulda told you, eventually, once I knew that this whole 'waving a gun at Satan' thing was a one-time show. I think it's reasonable to want to know that you're off the friggin' high dive, Sam. You almost got us both killed, so you can be pissed all you want, but quit being a bitch."

I know they didn't kill the witches from a few episodes back because they couldn't, but guess what! They also had a body count of four and those victims were totally innocent people! Unlike Amy who, as far as we can tell, killed total scumbags to save her dying child. And Dean is the one who gets a message from Ellen in the beyond telling him he needs to let someone know how bad he's feeling? Are they serious? Is this a fucking joke? Not to mention the implied victim-blaming when it comes to Sam and his hallucinations. Oh, I'm sorry, are the side-effects of Sam throwing himself into a box with the devil to save the fucking world inconvenient to you Dean??? And who wants to be that Dean's full of shit when he says he would have told Sam eventually? Oh, yeah, I'm sure.

And then they have Sam fucking agree with him!!

SAM: "Look, you know what? Um... You were right. About Amy. If she was... just any monster, I'm not sure I could have let her walk away. I don't know. I mean, I'll never know."

That's right! We'll never know! But you know what? I'm sorta willing to believe that Sam might have given her the benefit of the doubt! And he sure as shit wouldn't have let her kid to fend for his fucking self.

And then there's this cherry on top of the shit Sunday:

DEAN: "And as far as how I been acting... I don't know. Maybe it's 'cause I don't like lying to you. You know, it doesn't feel right. So, yeah, you got me there. I been climbing the walls."

Awww, Dean's feeling sad and drinking because he's a fucking liar?? BOO0-FUCKING-HOO. They really did everything in their power to make it so Dean didn't really have to apologize, huh? I'm just tearing my hair out over this. Sam's feelings are completely minimized, brushed aside, and even made to look foolish throughout this episode. And, again, as a reminder, he's mad about HIS BROTHER KILLING HIS FRIEND AND THEN LYING ABOUT IT. Why are you mad about that, Sam? That's stupid, come on. Just get over it. :/

Three Ships: 

Luke x Mara (of course)

Jane x Lisbon (choice no doubt influenced by “what I’m watching” answer)

Mulder x Scully

First Ship:

Last Song: (an answer I know my tagger will enjoy!):

Last Movie: Omg for real I watched this last night and then found one of the bad guys has a website and I sent him fanmail. 

Currently Reading: I swear to god someday I will finish Fairy Tale by Stephen King but I’m going to say MY book because I found two typos in the published copy dammit and now I have to reread the whole thing to make sure there aren’t more so the layout people can fix them.  Sigh.

Currently Watching:

The Mentalist.  This is a rewatch (I’ve seen it all before) and this show is 300% a guilty pleasure.  My husband is always around (but not watching exactly) when I’m binging it and he’s experiencing it by proximity osmosis.  He also ships Lisbon and Jane so he’s in for a treat 🥰

Thank you again for the tag @kaleidoscope1967eyes​!  A nice start to my Sunday! 🤗🥰

Cannot believe Jane participates in both slap and stroke his bald head sunday

[something-tofightfor]

Good luck finding a beta reader for your Marcus Pike fic!

I haven't watched The Mentalist ever because it didn't call to me (I loved Bones/ CSI / Lie to Me though). Now that I know Marcus Pike (I thought he looked cool from what I saw before I even knew of Pedro Pascal) does not get any love in the series? No thank you. But your fic? I'll still read it just because of your amazing writing probably 👀

Anyway I originally wanted to sendbthis ask originally for thanking you for posting Black Days 4 and that it made my Sunday even better!!!

Bones was one of my favorite shows - I loved every single member of that cast! Marcus definitely got done dirty in the series, and it's really funny to me because I *know* the point was to bring in someone that by all means Lisbon should have been head over heels in love with, because it proved just how much she loved Scarfy McDicknozzle Jane - but it was just so hard to watch Pedro as Marcus being so honest and endearing and genuine and GREAT .... and have him get stomped all over for the sake of a relationship that was the epitome of two boring ass idiots taking eight thousand years to admit that they wanted to be together at the expense of someone else's feelings.

Marcus Pike deserved way better than Teresa Lisbon, and I'm really glad that via both the show and fanfic, he gets it. I didn't WANT him to end up with her, but it was ridiculous to watch it go down that way, if it makes sense.

I hope you enjoy The Truth Is Out There - I found not one but two wonderfully insightful people to beta what I've got so far, and thanks to them I have some feedback before moving forward and making edits.

And I'm SUPER glad you enjoyed Black Days 4; I need to start on part 5, whcih I plan on doing this weekend. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!

Sunday 1st September 2024, Dolgoprudnyy, 3.34am.

#180,580 — A fugitive finds refuge within a travelling carnival comprised of a tarot card reader and her catatonic/telekinetic mother, a blind mentalist, a bearded lady, and conjoined twins, amongst others. No one can ever be sure of being in the presence of the real dictator and not of one of his doubles; not even the dictator is sometimes sure of that.

1.

It was a normal quiet day in Cannon River but something felt off to Lisbon, she just didn’t know what was going to happen, but it wasn’t good. 

“Sheriff, there’s a man here from the FBI to see you.” Officer Jacobs said, knocking on the already open door to Lisbon’s office taking Lisbon out of the daze she was in.

“What did he say his name is?” Lisbon asked.

“Abbott?”

So, this is what was going to happen today. Lisbon thought.

“Of course, Jacobs, he can come in.” Lisbon said, with a tension headache already arriving.

“ Sheriff  Lisbon, is it now? How are you?” Agent Abbott asked walking around her office, looking at all the knick-knacks sitting on the shelves.

“Hello, Abbott, what can I help you with today?” Lisbon replied, ignoring all pleasantries. 

“I just wanted to let you know that we are closing in on your boyfriend. We narrowed it down to where he might be, and if you tell me where he is now, then we can save a lot of time for both of us.” Abbott said, picking up a conch shell off of Lisbon’s desk, flipping it over in his hands before setting it back right side up on her desk.

“He’s not my boyfriend and I don’t know where he is.” Lisbon stated, watching Abbott’s movements- watching the conch shell that Jane had sent her a week prior.

“You know, it’s been a while since I have been to the coast.” Abbott started before smiling and saying, “Have a good day Sheriff.”, before walking out.

2.

Lisbon was glad she was able to work with the FBI, and see Jane again, but she didn’t miss dealing with Jane’s antics. She was very glad it was a Friday, with a case freshly closed, and neither Fischer nor Lisbon was particularly interested in case closed pizza. Fischer went to the bar to order their first round of drinks and when she arrived at the tall table, Lisbon grabbed for them.

 “How much paperwork did you have to fill out to cover Jane’s mishap from earlier?” Fischer asked.

“Honestly, not as much as I thought I would have to.” Lisbon chuckled, taking a sip of her drink.

“How do you put up with it? Scratch that, how do you put up with Jane? Doesn’t it get tiring dealing with him all day every day?” Fischer sat down and rested her chin on her hands.

“No, not really. I guess working with him for ten plus years, I just got used to it. But at least I’m not his boss anymore, that cuts down on a lot of paperwork.” Lisbon shrugged.

“I’m sure there are other perks you have to not being his boss anymore.” Fischer winked. “Do you have any plans for the weekend?”

“Jane and I usually watch a movie on Friday nights, on Saturday’s do some chores around the house, and on Sunday’s just relax before going back to work.” Lisbon explained.

“You and Jane are like an old married couple with your weekend plans.” Fischer chuckled.

“We get that a lot, which is weird considering we are not married or a couple-”, Lisbon started.

“Good evening, ladies.” Jane said, resting his hands on Lisbon’s shoulders giving a small squeeze before pointing at a stool next to Lisbon and asking. “Is this seat taken?”

“No, it’s not, but Jane, why are you here?” Fischer asked.

“Teresa texted me that you both were going out for drinks so I thought I would offer you both a ride home. Whenever you are ready of course, I can play some pool while you talk and drink.” Jane replied.

“Come on Lisbon, he calls you Teresa, and is offering you a drive home. How can you honestly tell me that you are not dating?” Fischer voiced when Jane walked away.

“We have known each other for ages, it would be weird if we didn’t call each other by our first names every so often and he offered you a ride home too. Jane and I are not in a relationship, we are just good friends” Lisbon replied defensively. 

“Whatever you say.” Fischer said, barely hiding a smile behind her glass.

3.

“Why don’t you just use the key that I gave you Jane? Yes, I’ll be leaving work in the next hour. Yeah, yeah, I’ll see you at home. You too, bye.” Lisbon hit the red end call button on her phone, before going back to typing her end of the day reports on her computer.

“Wait, did you just say that you and Jane are living together?” Fischer spun in her chair to face Lisbon. 

“Jane’s Airstream is in the shop due to being overdue for maintenance, and the FBI doesn’t really allow Jane to sleep in the bullpen on his couch.” Lisbon responded nonchalantly waving her off, “So we don’t really live together, he just sleeps in the guest room or the couch in my den.”

“And you said that he has a key to your house?” Fischer cocked and eyebrow.

“Just for the time while his Airstream is in the shop, besides it’s easier than him picking the lock every time. No, it’s not like that.” Lisbon replied to the small chuckle Fischer released.

4.

Lisbon walked into the break room to get some more coffee, where there were two blond secretaries chatting and giggling, as soon as they saw Lisbon, they stopped.

“Hey Lisbon, I wanted to apologize to you.” the secretary Lisbon recognized as Ms. Taylor approached her.

“Umm, okay?” Lisbon responded, confused.

“I didn’t know that you and Jane are dating, so if he tells you I did anything, I didn’t know, I’m sorry again.” Ms. Taylor responded before walking away faster than any innocent person would, almost bumping into Jane as he was walking into the break room.

“You look very confused Lisbon.” Jane started, “Ahh I was hoping I would be able to tell you before she did, but alas.” 

“What are you talking about? What is she talking about?” Lisbon asked, confusion in her voice.

“She was flirting with me so I told her we were dating so she would stop. I didn’t think you would mind given the situation.” Jane waved off.

“Okay, but why me?” Lisbon continued asking.

“You’re cute, Teresa.” Jane smirked before walking out with a newly poured cup of tea.

5.

“Hello, Ryan Crawford? This is Patrick Jane; my wife and I are out house hunting and noticed your sign in front of this lovely house on King Street. When are you available for us to walk around and take a look inside?” Jane spoke on the phone, staring towards the ‘For Sale’ sign in front of a small blue house.

‘Wife?’ Lisbon mouthed at Jane.

“Yes, we are in front of it now. You can be here in five minutes? Perfect. We will see you then. Bye.” Patrick stated ending the call on his phone.

“Wife?” Lisbon voiced this time.

“What? You have been my wife before in a case to get a killer. Don’t be surprised.” Jane smiled, giving Lisbon’s hand a quick squeeze. When he sees a car come down the road he gets out of the car, walking to the other side of the car, opening the door for Lisbon, putting his hand on the small of her back and shutting the door once she was out.

–

“You’re under arrest Mr. Crawford, for the murder of Jason Barrett.” Lisbon stated, slapping handcuffs onto Crawford, before reading him his rights.

“Wait, won’t your husband be upset about not being able to buy the house?” Crawford asked.

“Oh, Jane? Yeah, we’re not married. Duck your head.” Lisbon told Crawford, pushing him into the back of the issued SUV.

“Well, you fooled me, that acting was a little too convincing.” Crawford said as Lisbon shut the door.

1.

Lisbon walked into the living room to see Jane already up and dressed, folding up the blanket he had been using, setting it down at the end of the couch. 

“Good morning. I got a call from the shop that the Airstream will be ready around 10, and I can pick it up, maybe you can give me a ride to the shop later? Then I can get out of your hair, until you grace me with your presence again.” Jane smiled, “Do you want me to make you breakfast? I already prepared your coffee maker; I’ll press start on the machine now that you are up.” 

“Yes, coffee, yes.” Lisbon replied, half asleep sitting down on the couch, where the blanket wasn’t.

“Your wish is my command dear.” Jane bowed before walking to the kitchen. Lisbon did a small chuckle before resting more into the couch. A couple of minutes passed and Lisbon started to fall back asleep, but the smell of coffee had her open her eyes again.

“I have a question for you.” Lisbon started, taking the coffee from Jane’s hands, and took a sip. Jane took a seat next to Lisbon on the couch, his eyes shifting back in forth like he was reading her face like a book. "Jane, why don't you have a girlfriend yet?"

Jane visibly relaxed once the question was out in the air but started to chuckle, "What are you talking about?" 

"Why don't you have a girlfriend? I know something happened back on that island with Kim, so you are clearly ready for a relationship. While I will not complain about you making me coffee in the mornings, but aren’t you tired of not having someone to go home to?" Lisbon asked sincerely. 

Jane’s eyes went back to reading Lisbon, before his face went pink with embarrassment. "I am not as good at reading situations as I thought I was. However, you have always been a translucent read to me Teresa. But you asked me a question and my answer is a question to you. Are you telling me, you are not my girlfriend?" Jane stared into Lisbon’s eyes.

“Why would I be your girlfriend?” Lisbon said in a high pitch voice. “Wait, that came out wrong, not that I wouldn’t want to be your girlfriend, but why would you think that I- that we-”

"Teresa, when you gave me the socks, I didn’t have as much control over myself and I told you I love you. I felt like I screwed everything up, but you told me you love me too and you grabbed my hand. I just thought you wanted to take things slow-." Jane explained before getting cut off by Lisbon pressing a light kiss to Jane’s bottom lip, midsentence.

“You thought we were dating for what, six months? And I wanted to “take it slow”? Jane, I thought you were telling me you love me like friends, if I knew that you assumed we have been dating for the last six months, you wouldn’t have been sleeping on the couch, in my den.” Lisbon explained.

“Teresa, I do love you, you are my best friend, my partner, in both work and life, there’s no one else I want to be with. No matter if you want me to sleep in your bed or if you just let me make you coffee every morning, I just want you in my life.” Jane smiled.

“I do want you to make me coffee every morning, and I also want you to stay here. We can pick up your Airstream today, but stay another night.”

“Can I ask you a question first?” Jane asked, and Lisbon nodded in response. “Will you be my girlfriend, for real this time?” This time Lisbon’s response was to grab Jane’s face in a long, much needed, kiss.

My other The Mentalist work(s): Dinner and a Confession

Taking Care of You (Marcus Pike x Reader)

Summary: Marcus strikes me as the kind of guy that loves to take care of his girl so much he might have a slight daddy kink? And maybe he's been made to feel bad about it in the past but you're having none of that! Tags: Very fluffy. Lots of kisses. One mention of quarantine if that's something that bothers you. Rating: PG-13 Word Count: Just under 1k Masterlist | Next Chapter

After seven months of dating him one thing was for certain, Marcus Pike loved taking care of you.

If you were honest, it had been a little intense at first. You wouldn’t go so far as to say that your family didn’t love you, they did and you them, but growing up your household had never been very affectionate. So you just assumed that’s how all people behaved except apparently it wasn’t.

It started when Marcus first woke up because he was, of course, an early riser. After he showered he’d crawl back into bed and kiss your forehead and then your nose to slowly wake you up. He whispered a sleepy, “good morning, sunshine,” and you couldn’t help but smile, even if you hated waking up early.

Then he was off, making breakfast while you showered. After you were dressed you made your way to the kitchen, sighing at the deliciousness you could smell.

“Hey baby,” Marcus said while placing glasses of orange juice on the table.

You grinned as you saw what he made for breakfast, “Chocolate chip pancakes? You spoil me!” You walked to where he was standing and wrapped your arms around him, giving him a kiss. You could taste coffee and just a hint of chocolate, probably from the chips he’d been munching on while he was cooking.

“You taste good,” you whispered, kissing him again.

“So do you,” he said while breaking away and moving to sit on a chair. He brought you down to his lap before kissing you again, “Very minty.”

And that’s how you had breakfast, trading kisses and feeding each other bits of pancake. He’d lick the syrup off your lips only to smear more on and do it all over again.

When you were finally cleaned up, you made your way towards your home offices, yours in the dining room, his in the guest bedroom. He walked you to yours, even if was just a couple of feet from the kitchen and leaned down to kiss your forehead.

“Obviously the pandemic sucks, but working from home and getting to spend extra time with you? Well, I can’t say that I mind that,” he said while running a hand through your hair.

“I know, I’m going to miss this when it's all over. C’mere, one more kiss for the road,” you said, tugging him down.

He chuckled but kissed you again. Finally breaking away he made to leave but added, “I’ll see you at lunchtime, remember to stretch every now and then. And take breaks. And stay hydrated!”

You rolled your eyes at his over attentiveness and joked, “Yes daddy!”

You had already turned to your laptop and starting clicking around so you didn’t see Marcus’ reaction to your innocent comment. He felt himself flush and even though he knew you were only joking he kind of liked it? He shook his head and made his way to his office, pushing those thoughts aside to mentally get ready for his workday.

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

You both ended up working through lunch because you were so busy. You had just taken off your headphones and closed yours eyes when you felt a pair of warm hands rest on your shoulders, gently massaging the tension there.

“I see someone did not stretch,” Marcus said, wry smile on his face.

You couldn’t help but let out a little purr at his ministrations. His hands always felt so good, especially after a long day. You opened your eyes and tried to look apologetic but when you met his you could see he wasn’t angry. If anything he looked amused with his eye crinkles and a smile on his face.

“Sometimes I think you ‘forget’ to stretch on purpose just so I can give you a massage,” he said.

You looked away and tried not to smile, “Who me? Marcus you know I would never.”

“Uh uh, sure,” he said, shaking his head and pulling you up to your feet.

You turned so you were facing him and wrapped your arms around his neck.

“You don’t believe me?” Your tone was playful as you looked up at him through your lashes, pout on your lips.

Once again he felt himself flush, just like he had earlier in the day.

He pecked your little pout, “Of course I do, you’re my good girl, aren’t you?”

As soon as the words left his mouth he wanted to take them back. It must have showed on his face because you looked up at him and asked, “Marcus, what’s wrong?”

“I’m sorry, you’re not mad are you?”

You were confused, “Baby, why would I be mad?”

He looked sheepish, turning his gaze to the floor.

“Well, when I’ve been with other partners in the past they always said it was gross —”

You cut him off, bringing your hands down to his jaw, stroking gently, “But I’m not ‘other partners’, I’m me. People get turned on by different things, that doesn’t mean you’re gross, Marcus. Maybe it’s something you’re into? Why don’t we explore it?”

He finally met your eyes, looking hopeful, “Really? You’d be ok with that?”

You nodded, “What if I told you it was a turn on for me too?”

You watched as he swallowed hard. Wrapping both arms around his neck, you placed a kiss right below his ear. Standing on tiptoes you whispered, “Would you like me to call you daddy?”

Marcus groaned and sucked in a breath. You smiled, “Oh yeah baby, this is definitely your thing. You have nothing to be ashamed of.”

You kissed his lips slowly and when you broke away you stared up into his eyes, “Daddy are you ready? I’m gonna let you play with my kitty all night long, how does that sound?”

All Marcus could do was whimper as you pulled him towards the bedroom.
