PUPPY LOVE [ LANDO NORRIS ]
synopsis: you and lando as pet parents
warnings: fluff, just lando x y/n being the cutest, a lot of dog, not proofread
wc: 900+
since lando was a little kid he always wanted a dog.
since you were a little kid, you also wanted a dog.
and then you started dating. and got a dog.
"lando, for god's sake, how many times have i told you to not leave the leash by the door? i almost tripped!" you yell as you walk into the house back from work.
you and lando started dating 3 years ago and had your not-so-little dog for 2. his name was max - cause lando thought it was the funniest thing to name his dog after his best friend - and he was a huge golden retriever, the cutest you have ever met.
"sorry, love." you hear his muffled voice. when you walk into your room, the scenes strikes you like a bunch of hearts flying at your face.
lando was laying in bed, hugging max and with his head buried in the yellow fur. the dog was looking curiously at the door, waiting for your voice to actually become you.
when max sees you, his tail slaps in lando's leg and he stand up, moving in bed happily.
"hey, big boy." you greet him, caressing his fur and sitting down.
"where's my hi?" lando asks, his arms still plopped in the bed as he look at you.
"hey, big boy." you say again, now running his fingers through lando's hair. he shakes his ass like a tail wagging, for the joke, you laugh loudly. "stop it."
"so, sorry about the leash." he says sitting up. the dog going around you and laying with his head on your lap.
"always, huh?" you tease, almost mad.
"max was eager to drink some water, i can't say no to our only child!" he says in a high-pitched voice.
you push his head, he falls right back in bed and you stand up, resting max's head carefully on the matress.
"you should go take a shower, i'll order something for us, to enjoy or last weekend together." you groan as you remember the triple header coming and the amount of time you'd spent away from each other. "you want something special?"
"sushi?" you try, as always, convincing lando.
"hell no." he frowns, as he always do.
"i'll take some pizza, then." you shrug, walking in the shower.
when you get off, wrapping a towel around yourself, lando is not in the room. as you get dressed he appears, whistling and putting the pizza box down at the side table.
"don't let max get it before we can!" i barely yell, remembering the time lando placed the box on the bed and walked over to me. when we turned back, there was only two or three bites left of the pizza and a very hungry dog looking at us with his doe little eyes.
"sure, ma'am." lando sits down on bed, what gets a grunt from the dog.
you sit on bed, already in your pajamas, getting comfortable while lando puts something on the tv.
you take a piece of the pizza, biting it as max looks at you hopefully. you chuckle at his eyes.
"when did you learn to be like that, man?" you talk to the dog as lando puts one arm around your waist and uses the other one to grab his own piece of pizza.
"he was a good example." you look at your boyfriend as he looks at you with such doe eyes. "you sure you can't go to any race in the next weeks?"
"i can try, but my boss is already eating me alive for absolutely nothing." you roll your eyes and rest against his arm.
"you know you don't have to stay in this job, right?" he starts again as you huff. "i know, i know, you want to be independent! you can be independent working in a job that doens't stress you out that much."
"i like my job, lan." you argue.
"i know you do, but i'm saying that you're always complaining about something when you could just quit and be with me during the weekends." he pouts.
"i'm gonna try and make it out for at least one of the races, 'k?" you rest your head in his shoulder and looks up at him.
"better, yeah." he sighs.
you hear a huff from the end of the bed and turn to see your dog looking at you like a maniac, begging for a bite of your pizza.
"look at his face!" lando exclaims, pointing out.
"max, please." you cry and the door licks his mouth.
"no way your winning, better his give him a bite before he decides to get one by himself."
you have dinner and watch a few episodes of a show you had started weeks ago with lando - and max. as the night finally starts tire you, you let out a few yawns before lando realises it's already pretty late.
"let's have some sleep, babe." he whispers, turning off his side table lamp and getting comfortable with you in his arms.
not a minute goes by before the sound of ruffling sheets is heard and you feel a furred and soft by your feet. when you realise, max is already in the middle of you two, also seeking the comfort lando so desperately wanted.
"max!" he complains as his arms are torned away from your skin.
"let him be." it's the last thing you remember saying before drifting into sleep.

Transition (Charles Leclerc x Driver!Reader)
Part 2 of Replaced
Summary- After being kicked out of Ferrari rather rudely, Y/N must try to find a seat in the ever changing driver's market in the craziest year at Formula One till date.
{Reader's POV}
After leaving our home in Monaco, I spent the next couple of months regrouping with my team. I visited my family to clear my head; my mother always knew what to do in a difficult situation. She was the brains of the family. After a long and deep talk with her I realised what I wanted with the future. Number 1, I wanted to race in Formula One until I was 60. Number 2, I wanted a team that loved, valued and respected me as their driver. Number 3, last but not the least, I wanted to be paid more than what Ferrari was paying me.
Every team on the grid was open for picking except McLaren. Mercedes was losing their star driver, RedBull had to negotiate with Checo; the two teams I was eyeing right now. If I knew Horner and if I played my cards right, having a female driver on his team would change the dynamic and bring more spot light on the team. If Toto signed me, he would be replacing one iconic person with another; enough to make headlines.
The first race of the season hurt, I couldn't believe the next 24 races would be my last time in red, I couldn't fake the smiles. It hurt every time I saw Charles. We met for the first time since I left a day before Bahrain's media day. He looked as handsome as ever but his eyes held this deep seated sadness, you could see it. "Been a while" Charles almost whispered when our eyes met in the hotel. "It has, I've missed you" I replied. "I've missed you too" he almost cried out wrapping me in his arms. "The last few months were torture. You'll come home now, right?" he asked still holding me in his embrace. "Charles" I began, he pulled away, tears visible in his eyes, "I'll come back soon, mon tout. I need time" I mumbled. "How long will that be, mon cherie?" he asked. I wiped the tear that slipped out of his eyes, "The day I sign a team, I'll move back. I'll know my future and I'll finally be able to look at you without jealousy" I said. "OK" he nodded, kissing me for the first time since we met. "Je vous aime" he stated. "Je t'aime aussi" I replied back.
I finished P2 in the first race of the season. All the media and commentary were going crazy. It felt nice to finish P2. Max was fun to talk to post race during the cool down. He was always the more level headed one in our friendship. Max asked me about how things were between the two off us away from the prying eyes of the media who had already started to announce an imminent break up between the two of us. "He's been shit, since you left" Max spoke. "I'm sorry" I apologised. "oh no, don't apologise to me. I was just stating the obvious." he shook his head. "I heard you're talking to Horner" he commented. "Yeah, we're discussing but like I'm discussing with a lot of teams, honestly." I replied. "As you should, I think it would be fun....if we were team mates." he replied thoughtfully. "I wouldn't mind terrorising Charles in a RedBull" I laughed.
The next few races were quite memorable with me on the podium for every race. It was a proud feeling, a bitter sweet one though. Charles only saw me at race weekends but that was the nature of the sport, didn't mean that I didn't love him any less.
The talks with RedBull fell through since I wasn't able to bring in the kind of sponsors they wanted and the dream of driving in one too. Mercedes was very iffy, where Toto wanted to bring a new driver on the grid; while I was still effectively seatless. But Susie was a smart woman, she knew having me on the team after the void Lewis would leave, would do wonders since I was the first and only female driver on the grid in a really long time and having me would bring the similar kind of publicity, if not the same.
After months of back and forth, and negotiating; Toto agreed bringing a junior driver in too early wouldn't benefit anyone. I would race for Mercedes for the next 2 years and if the options opened up I didn't mind letting Toto have his little fantasy. My announcement would happen in Monza, the home of the tifosi. The perfect time and place. I had moved back in with Charles after the contract was signed. I did not tell him that I planned to announce it in Monza. Charles was just happy to have me back.
Mercedes made the announcement just before free practise, effectively ruining any plans the media had, it played in my favour and I had a ball. "You love drama don't you" Charles laughed. "What can I say? I have a knack for the theatrics" I laughed along. "Quoting Chandler are we?" Charles muttered kissing me as he said it. The days leading up to the race were crazy. As both me and Charles got ready to get into the car he said, "Can't wait to see you in black. You look hotter in black anyways" "Hope to be your teammate again in the future" I nodded as we put our helmets on. Charles won the team's home race. I missed the podium by a smidge, but knowing my future was secure didn't make the loss saddening.
As Charles got down from the podium to meet me, Arthur handed him something. "I thought, whether I finish podium or not I'd ask you this but as a 2 time Monza winner sounds so much cooler." he rambled. "What are you talking about Charles?" I questioned. He got down on one knee, the crowd went silent. "Will you Y/N Y/L/N do the honour of making me your husband?" he asked. I had tears in my eyes, "Yes" I nodded. Charles slipped the ring on my finger and kissed me. I could taste the champagne on his lips. I wrapped my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss while pulling his hair. We pulled away to a lot of hooting and screaming. "Wow" Charles exclaimed. "That's the hottest thing you've done till date, I think I'm hard" he said. "I'm staking my claim." I stated. "I'm always yours, now and forever" he replied. "Can't believe we'll have two Leclerc's on the grid next year." I commented. "Can't wait to race you Mrs Leclerc" he said kissing me again.

Song inspo (feel free to read if you want): The First Taste by Fiona Apple
PART 2 PART 3
A/N: This takes place four years before Blow My Load, but can be read as a standalone.
Please share, comment, like, and reblog...enjoy lovies! <33
"Dad, I thought it was supposed to be a "boy's trip," and the last time I checked, I am not a boy." You point at your body as you tell your dad. For some reason, he is begging you to come to the lake with him and his friends the day before they leave. "Why won't you just tell me why you want me to go? And maybe I'll give you an answer."
You finally got him to crack.
Your dad let out a defeated sigh as he scratched the back of his head and avoided eye contact. You mentally prepared yourself for whatever bullshit your dad was about to say. "Well, you see, honey, one of the guys couldn't get a babysitter for his kid, and I offered you to keep her company." He winced.
And there it is. The thing he was holding back from you
You let out a sarcastic chuckle. You really couldn't believe this shit. "Are you serious, dad? I refuse to babysit some random kid because you offered me up without even asking me first!" You exclaimed at him. "I don't even know a damn thing about this kid."
"Look, I know it was wrong for me to do that, sweetheart, but I swear Sarah is a good kid. Most of the time she has her headphones in and minds her business." He tries to reason with you, almost pleading with you. You began to feel bad for blowing up on him like that, but it really did piss you off that you had to watch someone else's kid. "I'll even pay you."
This weekend, you planned on doing nothing but self-care. You wanted to do nothing but stay home, watch movies, get a mani and pedi, go get a massage, drink, and maybe even play with the new toy you just bought yourself at Spencers.
You feel yourself giving into your dad; it wasn't the money that made you say yes, but the fact that he always found a way to make you feel bad, even if he didn't mean to do it. "Ugh, fine!" You scoff as you turn to look away from him. From the corner of your eye, you can see his body perk up.
Your dad lets out a sigh of relief, saying, "Thank you so much, sweetheart! You're such a lifesaver; you know that, right?" He slaps your shoulder playfully, causing you to shrug it off and narrow your eyes at him playfully as well.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. How old is your friend's daughter, anyway?" You asked him, unfazed by it all.
"I think she's around 14?" Your dad said cluelessly. "Not too bad, right? I'm sure that you can find something to talk about with her."
It wasn't that bad, but what the fuck would you, a 21-year-old, have in common with a 14–15-year-old girl?
"I guess. I'm gonna start getting my stuff all packed up," You tell him as you turn around to go up to your room.
"Alright, sweetheart, and thanks again!" He exclaims to you as you make your way farther up the steps.
"Yup!" You yell it out dismissively.
As much as you hated the circumstances, you were happy you were finally able to get away for a little bit.
...
It was the next day, and you were tired as hell after only getting four hours of sleep. You had spent all night packing and stressing about what you were going to wear. It wasn't like you were trying to impress anyone, but this was your first time meeting your dad's friends, and you wanted to look decent.
You had left it up to your dad to pack your things into the car as you were too tired to do anything besides shower, put your clothes on, and lay back down for a little until it was time to go. As you lay face down on the bed, knocked out, you heard your dad knock on the door. "Hey, kiddo, are you ready to head out?" He asked you as he stood at the door.
You slowly sit up on your bed as you yawn and stretch your arms over your head. "Yeah, let me just get up and grab my purse and stuff."
"Got it." Your dad says this before turning around and making his way downstairs.
After moments of sitting on your bed, stairing into space, you got up, grabbed your purse, and began to leave your room. However, on your way to the door, you see the pouch that contained your weed and weed paraphernalia. You hesitantly swiped it from your dresser, dropped it into your bag, and went downstairs.
If the men got to have their fun, why couldn't you?
Once you get to the last step, you hear your dad saying bye to someone on the phone before turning to you. "My buddy, Joel, just got to the lake house, so we should start headin' out." He says this as he grabs his keys and motions for you to follow him to the door.
After making sure the security alarm was set and locking the door, the two of you were finally on your two-hour journey to the lake house.
...
You and your dad finally made it to the lake house. It was a three story house that sat on top of a hill, surrounded by nothing but trees.
You and your dad hop out of the car and start bringing your bags to the front door. All of a sudden, the moment you sat the last bag down and brought your fist up to knock at the door, it swung open, revealing a man who looked to be in his early 30s with short, dark, curly hair.
Beside him was a woman with long locs, smiling warmly at you. Meanwhile, the man looked at you with confusion, trying to piece together who you were. You looked familiar to him, but he couldn't put a name to your face.
"Tommy!" Your dad said loudly behind you. You could hear the excitement in his voice as he greeted him. Tommy's eyes moved to look behind you at your dad, and his eyes lit up.
"Oh man, y'all come on in!" He opened the door wider as he and the unnamed woman moved out of the way to allow you to walk in first, followed by your dad. "I'll grab the rest of the bags out there." Tommy says.
Tommy brought the bags in as your dad greeted the lady. "Hey, Maria!" He asked her as he gave her a side hug. "I didn't know you were gonna be joining us this weekend as well."
So that was her name.
"I didn't think I was going to be joining either. Tommy invited me last minute, so I just decided to take some time off of work," She replies back.
They stood near the entrance as they began to get deeper into the conversation, talking about God knows what, leaving you standing there awkwardly as you watched them. You decided to take that moment to observe the room. Even though the house was spacious, it still had a cozy feel to it.
As you were in your own world, your dad gently slapped his hand on your shoulder unexpectedly. "And this young lady right here is my daughter." He smiles at the two as Maria and Tommy turn their attention to you.
"Nice to meet you, kid," He says as he offers his hand to shake yours, which you accept. You shake hands with him before dropping them to your side. Tommy then points to Maria. "This is my wife, Maria."
You shake hands with her as well while you tell them your name. "It's so great to meet you two!" You beam at the couple.
They begin to ask you a series of questions about yourself, such as what university you attended, what your major was, and so on, to which you gladly answer.
However, in the midst of your conversation, your words are abruptly interrupted by the sound of the sliding door opening, followed by heavy footsteps. "And here comes my asshole brother, Joel, and my niece, Sarah," Tommy says to you, prompting both you and your dad to look behind you. You can hear Maria let out a loud laugh at Tommy's words.
Your eyes immediately focused on him as he got closer to you, not even paying attention to the fact that his daughter was right behind him as well.
The man named Joel had short, dark, curly hair like Tommy’s; the only difference is that he is a lot shorter, and the roots of his hair were slightly gray at his temples. Joel also had a patchy beard with a thick mustache. He has this rugged and mysterious look to him that completely enraptures you.
He and your dad greet each other, giving a quick bro hug and pulling away. Joel then turns to you, and you feel your hands quiver. His dark, dominant eyes intensify the intimidating aura that surrounds him, yet it still makes him even more interesting to you.
Holy hell, you think to yourself. This man is so fucking fine.
You continued to stare at Joel, saying absolutely nothing, until you realized that he was giving you a confused look as if he were waiting for something. Your eyes darted down, and you realized that he had his hand out, waiting for you to shake it. You felt your face heat up with embarrassment as you went to shake his hand.
"Joel," was all he said as the two of you shook hands before he let go and discreetly rubbed his hands into his shirt. You could feel yourself shrink with embarrassment as he did this. Not only did he not even give you a chance to introduce yourself, but he wiped his hands after shaking yours.
What a fucking jerk! Tommy was right; he is an asshole.
You quickly snapped out of your feelings when you realized that Sarah was now in front of you. She wore a pink crop top and jean shorts, while her curly hair was placed in a low ponytail.
She suddenly brings you in for a hug with a massive smile on her face, catching you off guard. Nonetheless, you still happily return the hug.
"I'm Sarah. It's nice to meet you!" Unlike Joel, Sarah was a lot more friendly with you. She had this radiant energy to her that made you wonder where she got it from because it definitely wasn't from Joel's grumpy ass. You tell her your name.
"It's nice to meet you as well, Sarah!" I return a smile back to her. She seems like the sweetest 14-year-old you've ever met. "I think we're gonna get along just fine this weekend."
"We sure are!"" She agrees.
"Sarah, sweetheart, how've you been?" Your dad asked her.
As your dad began to talk to Sarah, you decided to check Joel out while he listened to the conversation, occasionally putting in his two cents. Unlike the rest of the group, Joel wore a dark gray shirt, jeans, and some boots.
How is he not hot?
I mean, he is hot, but I meant temperature-wise, you think, causing yourself to let out a low chuckle.
You guess you said that out loud because Joel’s head, along with Maria's, Sarah's, and Tommy's, suddenly snapped over to you with eyes wide and eyebrows raised. Your dad's voice slowly began to fade when he saw the mortified expression on Sarah's face.
"Wait, what happened?" Your dad asked cluelessly as he looked around the group. He was so in his own world that he didn't hear what you said. Thank-fucking-goodness. "Everyone just stopped talking all of a sudden."
"Nothing!" You quickly tell him as you give him a disengenious smile before looking at everyone else. Sarah looked embarrassed for you, as Tommy and Maria still looked shocked. You get a glimpse of Joel as you wince in embarrassment and close your eyes; he had this smug look on his face.
You gathered that Tommy obviously loves to fuck around with people because he let out a stifled laugh, causing his wife to slap his arm and tell him to shut up.
You just wanted to die right then and there. This is now the second time today you've embarrassed yourself in front of this sexy ass man.
Your dad, being the clueless person he is, continues on with whatever he is talking about, not even realizing that no one is paying attention to him. Maria interrupts your dad as she clears her throat to catch your attention. She had a sympathetic look on her face. "Sweetie, your room is on the second floor next to, uh, Joel's, if you wanna get settled in," She offered to you. "We're going to head out to the lake and start putting some things on the grill around 2 or so." You just nodded your head because you were too afraid to speak.
"Hey, Joel?" Tommy looked at his brother with a teasing look on his face. "Why don't you go show her to her room, yeah?" He nods his head in the direction of the staircase.
You wished that you could just punch Tommy across the face at this very moment.
"Umm yeah..." Joel agrees slowly as he gives Tommy a dirty look before glancing at you. "Follow me," You nodded your head and grabbed your purse and other bags. As you followed Joel, the group quietly picked up their conversation again.
Without saying a word to each other, you and Joel arrive in the room. He steps aside, allowing you to enter, and turns around to make his way down the hallway to go back downstairs, but you quickly stopped him before he could get any further. "Hey, I'm sorry about what happened down there." You apologized to him. "I hope I didn't make you uncomfortable or anything."
Joel just turns around and gives you a small smirk. "Oh, darlin', I'm far from uncomfortable. I'm actually flattered...more than flattered as a matter of fact." He winks at you before departing down the hallway, leaving you shocked.
You were somewhat relieved that Joel wasn't disgusted by you, but it still didn't help with your embarrassment as much as you hoped it would.
You scanned the room, taking in the room that you were going to be spending your weekend sleeping in. The walls were painted a light gray. There was a queen-sized bed that looked really comfortable and had bedside tables on each side as well as a TV, which was mounted onto the wall opposite the bed. There was a door that led to a balcony. You could see an overview of the calm lake and the tall trees. It was a beautiful view.
...
It's been a while since you went downstairs with everyone. You were still so embarrassed by the incident this morning that you decided to spend most of your time scrolling through social media and catching up with your college friends. The only time you came out of the room was to go to the bathroom.
You eventually rolled out of bed and worked up the courage to join everyone.
After changing your clothes that you had on earlier and putting on your swim suit, you slipped on your oversized shirt, put on some waterproof mascara, and put on some lip gloss.
You made sure to grab your sunglasses, put on your flip-flops, and jogged down the steps.
Once you got down there, you realized that Maria was in the kitchen. You headed towards her, quickly greeting her. "Hi, Maria," You say while positioning yourself behind the chairs on the island. She was gathering something that she needed to put outside.
"Hey, sweetheart!" Maria happily greets you back with a smile as she turns her attention to you. "How're you feeling?" She asked you gingerly as she looked at you with sympathy. Her goal wasn't to embarrass you; she truly wanted to know if you were okay after earlier.
You felt yourself begin to get flustered. "I'm fine. Thanks for asking." You sheepishly replied. You avoided her eyes, beginning to feel awkward.
"Of course. They're out in the back; you should join them." She points to the sliding door. You just nodded your head and made your way to the door. Before you went out there, you stood there looking outside. You could see Joel's tall figure standing over the grill as he flipped the meat and sipped on his beer.
You felt yourself getting nervous just looking at him.
You then looked and saw your dad helping Joel take the food off the grill and start to place it on the table. Meanwhile, Sarah and Tommy sat at the table, talking to each other. Whatever Tommy had said made them let out loud laughs, causing Joel quickly turned around, let out a chuckle, and shook his head. He then went back to putting things on the rest of the food on the serving platter.
His smile is so gorgeous, it almost takes your breath away.
"Are you going out, sweetheart?" Maria asked behind you, startling you. You had forgotten that she was still here.
You turned to her as you began to stammer over your words and realized that her hands were full with plasticware and plates. "Do you need me to help you take those?" You asked her without even answering her question.
"I do actually," She just looked at you with a questionable look before speaking up again. "Can you just grab the forks and spoons from the top and place them on the table out there, please?" She asked. You grabbed the utensils before turning back around and opening the door.
They didn't notice you at first until Sarah caught sight of you and loudly called out your name as you got closer, causing Joel to look over at you as he closed the grill's top.
"Sarah!" You exclaimed dramatically. Once you reached the table, you sat the plasticware down and went over to sit next to her.
You noticed that her hair was wet and that she was wrapped in a towel. "What've you been up to, girlfriend?" You asked her as you sat down in the seat.
"Nothing much; I just took a quick dip in the lake, and now I am starving," Sarah whined out as she looked over at her dad, who was coming over with the food.
You can hear the sound of Joel's heavy feet approaching behind you and stopping at the free seat at the end of the table, which was next to you. He first put the food in the middle of the table, then plopped himself down. We all began to put things on our plates and begin eating.
Tommy grumbled something about starving, causing Sarah to make a joke about how he was always starving. In reply, Tommy stuck his tongue out at the young girl in a teasing manner.
As Joel ate, he was manspreading under the table. You could feel his hairy, bare leg graze against yours, making you move your leg away. Joel wiped his mouth with the napkin, took a sip of his beer, and looked at you with a blank stare, not saying anything.
You decided to speak up and compliment him on the food. "Joel, this is really good," You smile. Everyone hummed in agreement as they ate.
"Why thank you, darlin'?" Joel says, going back to eating.
...
After eating, we all sat there with our tummies full as we sat around talking about whatever came to mind. That was until Sarah ran into the house without saying a word.
"Oh goodness, that girl." He sat back as he watched his daughter running around the house through the sliding door before running back outside with a box of Uno cards.
"Who wants to play?" She asked the whole table as she ran to her seat and plopped down.
We all agreed. She began to shuffle the cards, dealt them out to everyone, and then set up the game. It first started with you, Joel, Maria, Tommy, then your dad, and lastly Sarah.
Sarah was the first one to get Uno, even though she had the most cards at one point. We all accused her of cheating, which she was quick to deny. No one at the table believed her, especially Tommy and Maria. She just rolled her eyes and helped your dad while he was stuck figuring out which cards to play next.
While the two silently argued about which card was the best, you looked over at Joel and saw that all his cards were showing. You looked around and noticed that no one was paying attention to his cards. Tommy and Maria were sitting there watching your dad and Sarah.
"You're bleedin', Joel," you whisper to him as you point to his card. His face scrunched up with confusion as to what you meant. He looked down at himself and saw no blood.
"What, sugar? I ain't bleedin' anywhere," He said as he tried to recall if he had maybe scraped himself anywhere, but it wasn't coming to him. You couldn't help, but laugh at his confusion.
"It means your cards are showing, Joel." You giggled at him as he chuckled a bit and put his cards up so that he wasn't "bleeding" anymore.
"That's so stupid, who taught you that?" You just shrugged your shoulders at his question and looked back over to see if your dad had finally picked up his card yet.
"Oh my gosh, this isn't rocket science, dad! Just pick a card already!" You exclaimed it, causing everyone to laugh.
"I'm tryin', I'm tryin'!" Your dad waved you off as he went back to silently arguing with Sarah about which card to choose.
The game got drawn out longer than it was supposed to because every other minute someone (usually Tommy) would start arguing about another person cheating. And in the end, Tommy lost the game.
We put the cards away as everyone except for Maria decided to hang out by the dock and take a swim. She said something about having to get on the phone with a client of hers, but she would come join us when she was done and would bring popsicles.
You and Sarah walked in front of your dad, Joel, and Tommy until you yelled out, "Beat you there!" to Sarah as you both haphazardly ran down the steps to get to the dock.
"You girls, be careful down those stairs now! Don't want y'all gettin' hurt," Joel yells out from behind. The two of you don't respond or slow down; you just keep giggling and running. Joel had to suppress a smile from appearing on his face. It brought him joy to hear how much fun Sarah was having with you.
Once you make it to the dock, Sarah flings off her towel and jumps into the lake with a squiel before she goes under water and floates back up. You quickly kick off your flip flops, throw your sunglasses down, and take off your shirt. Unlike Sarah, you didn't jump into the water, you sat down on the dock and scooched into the water.
Oh, come on! You should've jumped in!" She says this to you as she splashes you with water. You splashed her back.
"I'm too afraid, Sar-bear!" You yelled out to her, and she gasped. The men appeared from the concrete steps just as she did so. Joel dropped the towels in his arms before walking over in front of us, while your dad and Tommy moved to the other side of the dock with their beers and their folding chairs.
"Dad, can you believe that she's too afraid to jump into the water?" Sarah yells out to her dad.
He looked down at you from the dock with his hands on his hips and cocked his head to the side in confusion. "Really? It's not that scary, sweetheart," He tells you.
"Then how about you get in, Joel?" You say to him without even thinking.
"Yeah, come on, dad. Get in and show her how it's done!" Sarah yells out as she encourages her dad to get in.
You watched Joel as he took off his shoes and shirt, all while keeping his eyes on you. You couldn't help but suck in a breath and bite your bottom lip when he pulled off his shirt. You got a glimpse of his shirtless chest. Joel wasn't the most muscular man, but whatever his job was, it kept him fit, and you loved it. Your eyes quickly scanned over his neck, then his broad shoulders.
Those damn shoulders of his. You wished you could hold onto them as you rode on his co-
Your thoughts were abruptly shattered when Joel took a big leap into the lake, causing a splash of water to hit your face and go up your nose. You tried to make an attempt at turning your head, but it was too late. You coughed as you tried to clear the water from your lungs. As you do so, Joel comes up from beneath the water.
He gasped as he allowed the air back into his lungs and used his big hands to wipe his face. Once he noticed that you were coughing, he quickly swam over to you with a look of concern.
"You okay, sweetheart?" He asked you as you let out one last cough and nodded your head. He brought his hand up to stroke the side of your head and gave you this tender look before pulling away when he noticed that Sarah was coming over.
If it were just you and Joel on the lake, he would've probably pulled you into his body and placed a soft kiss on your lips.
Even though he had just gotten into the lake, Joel decided to get out before he did something that he would regret.
"Alright, girls. I'm gonna get out now." He says more to Sarah than to you. Once again, you just nodded your head at him. You knew that if you spoke, you'd embarrass yourself again.
"Wha-Dad! You literally just got in." She tries to convince him, but he just shook his head and grabbed onto the rails. He pulls himself up with a grunt and walks onto the dock.
"I'll get back in in a little bit." He dismissed her as he went to get a towel.
Sarah began to say something to you as she swam around you, but you were too focused on Joel to listen to what she was saying. She was too busy talking to notice that you weren't listening. Your attention was stuck on Joel, and his wet shorts stuck to his surprisingly nice ass. He then turns around as he dries off. Your eyes drifted down and widening when you saw his bulge. You were taken aback by the sight.
Oh my god, you thought to yourself.
You looked back up at his face to realize that Joel was already staring at you and smirking while he wrapped the towl around his waist.
Oh fuck!
He obviously saw you staring at his cock because he was fucking smirking.
Joel walked over to have a seat with his brother and your dad. You diverted your attention back to Sarah, acting as if you knew what she was talking about. You just nodded your head a couple of times, and she believed it, but again, your mind drifted.
You were thinking about her dad; snap out of it for Christ's sake.
For the rest of your time at the lake, you refused to look at Joel. And just as promised, Maria finally joined you all about an hour later with the popsicles she said she would bring. Once we ate them, Maria convinced the other adults to have a swim in the lake, to which they all agreed after some groans and pressure from her and Sarah.
...
After spending most of the afternoon outside, everyone went off to do their own thing. Sarah decided to take a shower and then go to sleep while your dad, Tommy, and Maria opted to go out to a bar that a local had told them about, and Joel refused to go out tonight because he said that he was beat from the lake. As for you, you took a quick shower and decided to watch the sunset on the balcony that was connected to your room and smoke.
Before slipping onto the balcony, you grabbed a preroll and a lighter from the pouch, your headphones, and a water bottle from the bed.
When you first got here, you didn't notice that there was a door connected to the balcony that led to Joel's room. However, the sheer curtains were closed, so you could only assume that he was asleep, meaning it was safe for you to smoke without him seeing you. You sat down on the lounge chair, put your headphones on, turned on some music, and began your session.
After two hits of the preroll, you felt the effects of the weed. Your body began to relax, and your eyelids felt slightly heavy. As you continued smoking, you couldn't escape the thought of Joel. You know that he is your dad's friend, and you would never think to go after him, but you have to admit that he is an attractive older man. Just your type.
You barely spoke to him throughout the couple of hours you had been there, yet you could tell the type of man he was. He is very reserved, doesn't speak unless spoken to, and likes to observe. Joel is respectful, but he didn't take shit from anyone. It was very visible that he was protective of not only Sarah but also Tommy.
Everything about him drew you in more and more.
With a few more hits of your preroll, you see a figure standing in the corner of your eye just a few feet away from you, causing you to quickly pull off your headphones and flick the preroll from your fingers and off the balcony. You look over to see Joel watching you with his eyebrows frowned and his hands on his hips. Your eyes widen with shock.
"Shit! I mean, hey, Joel..." You smile up at him awkwardly, trying to seem as sober as possible. "What are you doing out here?" You asked him in a sickly sweet voice. He continues to stare at you before answering.
"I just came out here to check on you. Heard you out here, so I decided to see what you were up to." Joel grumbles as he switches his weight to his other foot.
You prayed that Joel didn't know you were out here smoking weed; your dad would kill you if he heard about you doing this. Little did you know that your attempt would be a complete failure. As soon as Joel walked outside, he could smell the smoke and aroma of weed. He could also see your bloodshot eyes.
"Oh, yknow, nothing much really, just out here enjoying the view and listening to music!" You say this while waving your hand, gesturing to the view in front of both of you. You visibly cringe after this sentence because, even though it was the truth, it wasn't the full truth. He seemed to buy it, so you relaxed a bit.
"Mm, you enjoyed yourself today?" he asked.
"Yeah, I had a lot of fun today. Sarah definitely made it fun for me, she's amazing." You admitted to him, and it was true. His daughter was truly a joy to be around.
"Yeah," He laughs out as he looks out at the sunset, his handsome smile threatening to appear on his face. "She's amazing, for sure." He whispers. You can't help but smile at his words. It was refreshing to see that there was someone who was able to crack his hard exterior.
A silence falls over the two of you before he speaks up again. "Y'know, when we were walking back to the car after the lake, she talked about you the whole time. I couldn't shut up about how much cooler you are than Tommy and me." He scoffs as he rolls his eyes playfully and folds his arms to his chest. His confession made you laugh so hard that you couldn't stop, which caused him to laugh as well.
"I mean, she isn't wrong." You teasingly say it to him, causing him to shake his head.
"Yeah-fuckin'-right, darlin'. I can be cool, too."
"Mmhmm.." You reply back to him as you turn your head to look back at the view. However, Joel's eyes remained on you, but you didn't mind too much.
Once again, silence fell over you two. You wanted to look back at Joel, but you knew that if you looked at him in the eyes, your heart would beat out of your chest.
"Did you enjoy yourself, Joel?" You asked him without looking at him.
"What?" Joel asked.
Was he that engrossed in my face that he wasn't even paying attention, or were you not loud enough?
You suppress your laugh as you turn your head to look at him again. "I asked if you enjoyed yourself today." He quickly snaps out of his trance and looks away.
"Oh, yeah, it was enjoyable for the most part, sweetie," Joel sighs out. You said nothing else after this.
You didn't realize it until now, but you were starting to grow tired from the weed. You also wanted a snack.
"Well, I'm going to head back in, maybe fall asleep to a movie or something." You tell him as you grab your belongings, get up from the chair, and walk to the door.
"Alright," He says as he watches every step you take. "And one last thing, darlin'," You stop with your hand on the doorknob and look up at Joel as you wait to hear what he has to say. With a mix of your high and the nervousness you were feeling because of Joel, your heart was pounding out of your chest at this point.
"You don't gotta lie to me, sweet girl. You know that, right?" He says lowly as he motioned to his eyes.
Fuck!
Your body tenses up, and you freeze. You decided to play dumb, even though you were caught. "I have no idea what you're talking about, Joel," You say as you let out a nervous laugh. Your eyes shifted to the ground, avoiding eye contact with Joel like a guilty puppy.
"Oh, no need to play stupid with me, sweet girl; I won't tell your daddy." Something about the way he said these words made you want him so bad; it was almost like he was teasing you.
You felt your walls crumbling, no longer feeling the need to lie to him. "You swear, Joel?" You asked him as you looked at him with pleading eyes.
Joel wished that you would look at him with those pretty eyes while you were on your knees, pleading and begging for him to feed you his cock. In all honesty, he'd give you the world if you asked for it with that look. You made Joel feel something he hasn't felt for a woman in years, and he was willing to do just about anything to have you. However, he could tell you weren't ready for that yet, but he knew in due time he'd have you.
"You have my word, darlin'," He nods his head. "Just don't lie to me again," Joel tells you as he points a finger.
You frantically nod your head in agreement as you bite your lip. "I won't do it again, Joel."
All Joel could think about was how obedient you are, so eager to please him and do as he says. He could feel his cock getting hard in his shorts as he looked at your bare thighs and had these thoughts. Not once did you realize that Joel was checking you out.
Oh, how badly Joel wanted to grab your chin and kiss those lips of yours. He kept reminding himself that he needed to be patient.
"Good." He says before speaking up again. "You should go inside, darlin', maybe get some rest." Joel insisted as he made his way to the door and gave you one last look before walking inside, leaving you outside by yourself.
You stand there dumbfounded for a moment as you think about your interaction with Joel. You weren't sure if it was just you thinking too much into the interaction, but you felt like there was some sexual tension between you and Joel.
Any time you're around him, nervousness takes over, and a sense of yearning aches deep in your bones.
You needed him badly.
"Don't," You say to yourself. "Don't fucking think about it." You say it lowly as you try to shake the thoughts out of your head.
Joel is off limits; he's your dad's best friend.
You realized how crazy you must look standing at the door thinking about Joel, so you went inside.
Once you entered the room, you noticed that it was a little too warm in there for your liking, so you decided to leave the balcony door cracked to get some fresh air.
You put your things away, got into bed, and watched a movie on the TV across the room.
...
You weren't sure when you fell asleep, but you did during the movie without even realizing it. You felt very discombobulated, so you sat in the dark for a few minutes. Your clothes felt disgusting on your body as you sweated through them, and your throat was dry.
You quickly got out of bed, slipped off your clothes, got back into bed, and took a sip of the water bottle that lay next to you. During this, you got a glimpse of the digital clock that sat on the bedside table. It read 12:48.
The house was quiet. You were sure that Maria, Tommy, and your dad were back from the bar by now and asleep. Sarah and Joel were probably sleeping as well.
You laid back down on the bed, pushing away the uncomfortable blanket, leaving your body bare. You should have gotten up to close the door because if Joel were to come to your balcony door, he'd surely get a glimpse of your naked body. However, you were still sleepy and a little high, so you lacked the motivation to get up.
It really didn't matter anyway; he's probably still sleeping.
You had laid restless in the bed, constantly flipping the pillows to get the cool side and changing positions, but you still couldn't sleep. You decided to lay on your stomach; it helped you fall asleep sometimes.
You knew one thing that would definitely make you fall asleep, but with a particular someone lingering in your thoughts, it felt wrong. It is completely wrong to have these thoughts about him.
He's way too old for you, and he's your dad's best friend.
Though you tried your best to resist these thoughts, you couldn't help yourself.
Fuck it, it's not like I'm gonna actually fuck him, you think to yourself.
You were suddenly taken back to earlier, when you first laid eyes on him. Those eyes and the curve of his nose. You wanted nothing more than to feel his beautiful nose rub against your clit while he ate you out.
Or when he shook your hands and you felt those thick, rough fingers against your smooth hands.
You were sure that Joel knew how to use them very well.
Subconsciously, your hips had bucked into the bed, trying to get friction onto your clit causing the headboard to hit against the wall ever-so-slightly.
"Shit!" You cursed out loud, hoping that Joel didn't hear. Your heart was pounding at the thought of being caught by him, but your pussy dripped with your wetness.
You waited a couple seconds until you took your hand from underneath the pillow and slowly moved it between the bed and your body, allowing your finger tips to graze against your pussy. You couldn't help but whimper at the feeling. Your arousal ran down your fingers, to your knuckles, and onto the bed.
What you didn't know was that Joel wasn't even in his room; he was sitting out on the balcony. He had been sitting out there for about an hour or so because he couldn't sleep, not with you on his mind, so he decided to sit out there and bore himself to death until he got some sleep. When he first came outside, he checked on you and saw that you were knocked out. The room was dark, and the only thing that brought some light to the room was the bright moonlight reflecting over the lake.
As Joel got up to check on you one last time before he went back to his room, he heard you let out a whimper. He slowly walked to your balcony door so that he wouldn't scare you in case you were having a nightmare, but that wasn't the case at all. Again, Joel heard you let out another noise.
First, you sharply gasped, then moaned out, "Oh, Fuck!"
Joel became more intrigued with whatever was going on in your room because it became very apparent that you weren't having a nightmare. In fact, it didn't even sound like you were sleeping anymore.
Like a thief in the night, Joel peered through the door that was half open. What he saw before him could've brought him to his knees.
You were lying down on your stomach, fully naked on the bed. He noticed that with your right hand, you were touching yourself. Joel wasn't hard before, but he's definitely hard now. He felt as his cock strained against the fabric of his shorts.
Joel knew it was wrong to watch you masturbate without knowing, but he couldn't take his eyes off of you. It had been nearly two years since the last time he had been sexually active, and quite honestly, it was catching up to him at that very moment. He had been so busy with everything in his life that sex was the last thing on his mind until now.
As Joel watched you hump your hips into your fingers, you were imagining a shirtless Joel sat up on the bed, with you sitting in between his legs. Your legs would be wide open, propped up over his, as you allowed his calloused middle and ring finger to collect your arousal from between your folder and rub it into your clit. With his deep Texas accent, he would be whispering into your ear about how much of a good girl you are and how wet you were for him. Your head would be laid on his sexy, broad shoulders as your eyes rolled with pleasure. You imagined that as he played with your clit, his other hand would touch your breast and quickly tweak your nipples as they continued going up and firmly wrapping around your neck.
You were so caught up in your thoughts and pleasure that you hadn't realized that you were moaning out Joel's name.
"J-Joel, please," You quivered out quietly enough so that you weren't too loud, but loud enough for Joel to hear. "I'll be good, p-please, daddy." You followed up.
Even though you thought that Joel was in the next room over (which he wasn't) and there were other people in the house, you still continued to touch yourself as the headboard faintly knocked against the wall.
Yet you were so blissfully unaware of it all. So unaware of the fact that Joel was standing right outside the door, watching you rubbing yourself completely nude, and unaware that Joel had pulled his cock out while he watched and listened to you.
Joel didn't care that what he was doing was wrong. He didn't care that watching you, this freshly 21-year-old, masturbate without your knowledge was bad.
The sounds of your panting, moans, and dirty talk made him want to walk right into the room and give you the pleasure you needed.
Joel has always been a selfish lover when it came to the bedroom; he liked to be the one who was dominant and always took control. He could tell you needed someone like him to fulfill your desires—not some foolish 20-something year old, but a real man.
As you continued to grind against your fingers, Joel saw how your ass moved back and forth. He wanted to spank you for being such a naughty girl. Touching yourself without asking for his permission. He would remind you that only slutty, bad girls did that.
He jerked his cock at the same speed as your hips moved. "Oh my god, daddy!" You moaned into the pillow, causing it to be muffled. The thrusting of your hips had sped up. You were on the cusp of cumming, but that changed when you suddenly pulled your hands from between your legs and got up to change positions.
You were now lying on your back with your legs bent up to your chest as far as they could go. Using the hand you just used to grind up against, you bring your middle and ring fingers to your mouth. You began to suckle on them intensely, pretending they were Joel's fingers. You could taste yourself as you did so.
A minute later, you pop your fingers out of your mouth and bring them down to your pussy. As you sink your fingers inside yourself, you can feel the wetness, allowing you to slip deeper into your tight hole. You squirmed as you felt a little discomfort due to your fingers. You decided to slowly thrust your fingers in and out, allowing yourself to get used to the feeling. With your free hand, you brought it up to your mouth to muffle your soft whines.
Oh, my baby, she can barely take her own fingers, Joel thought as he watched you.
To Joel's surprise, you still didn't see him standing by the door, hastily jerking himself off at the sight of you. It wasn't like he was being discreet about it either. He was almost fully through the door at that point. Your eyes were closed as you fingered yourself.
Finally, you were able to adjust to your fingers. As you picked up the speed, Joel could hear the wet, slick sounds coming from your pussy all the way across the room. Hearing this only heightens the pleasure for him.
"Joel, I'm-oh my god-I'm gonna cum!" You moaned lowly.
Joel wanted to be the one to make you cry, but he knew he couldn't at that moment.
Your messy wetness had allowed your fingers to go deeper inside, causing you a certain spot. Your legs shuddered as your finger tips grazed the spot. In a 'come here' motion, you continued to hit the spot over and over again. "Fuck! That's it, baby. Keep going just like that." You purred out.
Joel convulsed at the way you said these words. He was ready to cum at any moment, but he wanted to cum with you.
With his hand still rapidly moving up and down his length, he finally heard your release.
"Yes! I'm cumming all over your fingers, Joel!" You moaned a little louder this time. Joel could hear you breathing hard as you continued to ramble about how good it felt.
Instantly, Joel was cumming. He withheld his groans and grunts as the hot cum hit the palm of his other hand. Instead, he was breathing hard through his nose, hoping to God that you couldn't hear him.
Finally, your orgasm began to die down. "Oh my god," You sighed out blissfully, as you pulled your finger from your pussy. Your legs moved from your chest and you dropped down on the bed. You were still trying to catch your breath. With his mind still cloudy from cumming so hard, when Joel saw you move your legs, he thought that you were going to get off the bed, causing him to panic and move away from the door so that you couldn't see him.
You could feel the cum webbing between your two fingers. You decided that you wanted a look, so you opened your eyes and brought your hand close to your face. You could see the bright moonlight illuminate your cum. You'd never come so hard. Not with any of your hookups, let alone when you masturbated.
You felt spent after that, but you needed to get up to clean yourself off. You decided to rest your eyes a bit before getting up, but without even realizing it, you had dozed off into a dreamless sleep.
Less than five minutes later, Joel heard light snores coming from your room, so he decided that it was safe to look again. You were dead to the world. Joel saw your limp hand hanging off the bed—the same one you had used to fuck yourself with. He could see the wetness gleaming on your fingers. He wanted to come over them and suck your cum off of your fingers, but he stopped himself.
The post-nut clarity had hit Joel, and he realized that he must've looked like a creep with his cock out while he watched you sleep. So he closed your balcony door and headed back into the house to wash the cum from his hands.
Joel knew that he would have you one day; it didn't matter how long it took for him to get you. He would get you right where he wanted you eventually.
...
You woke up feeling like a brand new person that morning. Your limbs felt loose, and you felt like you could conquer the world.
You could feel the sun on your naked body as you rose out of bed to stretch. The sounds of people moving around let you know that everyone was awake.
You suddenly realized that the balcony door was now closed. You don't remember getting up to clean yourself, and you definitely don't remember ever getting up to close the door.
Realization had hit you hard, and your heart dropped.
Shit! Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!
There was no way anyone could have come into your room because you had locked the bedroom door. However, Joel had access to the shared balcony.
He was the only one who could've closed that door.
Whatever, you were going to enjoy yourself this weekend and act like nothing happened.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steve felt a kind of giddiness he had never felt before. It was almost nauseating; somewhere between the greatest euphoria and the deepest of depressions. He felt himself unable to bring words to his lips, when Bucky knocked on his room door to ask him how he was holding up.
“This is fucking crazy, man.” Bucky had breathed out. It seemed the same cat had got his tongue.
Steve had breathed out a half-laugh. “Yeah, it’s definitely crazy.”
He felt delirious. Dizzy with every emotion he had ever, and will ever feel. He found himself staring at the clock as time ticked by, agonisingly slowly. He fought against every instinct he had to run to her, make sure she never left his sight again.
It had been nearly 80 years since they had last seen each other. What if she had moved on? What if he was too different for her now? What if she was different?
As they had talked, it felt the same. But the talk they had had wasn't quite enough for the captain. He fought against every instinct he had to charge into her room and demand answers to the thousand questions running through his head.
His best bet would be going for a run, clear his head, work off some energy. It was a nice day outside, and a weekend so most of the agents and personnel were off-base. He shrugged on some gym clothes and headed out. He found himself lingering, as he walked past her door, trying to fend off thoughts of charging in and blurting his deepest thoughts to her.
The sound of... struggling? He could hear her, with ragged breath and the sound of what he thought was someone bumping into furniture. His eyebrows furrowed as he went into avenger mode.
"Princess?" He knocked quickly on the door, listening as he did for further sounds. As he knocked, the noises stopped. It was only through his supersoldier hearing that he could still hear her ragged breaths.
A small, breathless voice came from behind the door. "I'm okay, I'm alright!"
The captain wasn't entirely sure what to do. "Do you need help with anything?"
There was silence for a moment. And then, the lock on the door turned and she stood, once more, in front of him. Now, she was more flushed, and her hair had fallen ever so slightly out of place. The captain still thought she was the most radiant being he had ever seen.
"I... I am sorry to ask, captain. I am so used to having handmaidens that I can't get my armour off by myself." She looked away as she said it, and Steve cursed himself as a blush spread it's way over his cheeks.
"I'll help!" He said, perhaps a little too much enthusiasm behind his words. He immediately pulled it back, "or I could get Natasha, if you want."
The princess smiled at him. "It's okay, I wouldn't want to bother Miss Romanoff, if you don't mind helping?" She held the door for him and he entered her chambers. If she had been on Alfheim, or Asgard for that matter, this would have caused great scandal. For a brief moment, regardless of the circumstances, she was grateful to be back on Midgard.
She lifted her arms to show him how the chestplate connected around her torso, and he began to undo the intricate mechanism stitching it together. They were both hyper-aware of their closeness in that moment, each fighting not to think about it too much.
"It's beautiful." Steve tried to cut the silence, but his voice came out as more of a whisper. "Your armour, I mean. The carvings." He cleared his throat.
She made eye contact with him, and he nearly audibly gulped. "Thank you." As the mechanisms finally gave way, she pulled the piece over her head, holding it in front of her. "It belonged to my grandmother, the last Queen of Alfheim. They say even the stars themselves bowed to her."
Steve didn't miss the sadness layered in her voice.
"I never knew anything about your family before. It's crazy that they're kings and queens." Steve confessed.
She placed a hand, lightly on his arm. She couldn't think of what to say in response to that, but the gesture was enough. She hung the armour in the wardrobe, then began to take off her jewelry starting with her jeweled tiara. As she pulled it from her hair, he audibly gasped.
With the way her tresses fell, and covered her ears, it was like the princess disappeared and was replaced with (y/n). His (y/n). The one he ejected from the plane to save, all those years ago. The one he had mourned since he came out of the ice.
She turned to him, smiling. "You look the same, you know." She continued, "As when we last saw each other."
Steve caught a glimpse of himself in her mirror. He didn't feel the same as back then. He had been so full of hope, so naïve. The modern world made it hard to be optimistic.
"I'm older, now. You haven't aged a day." He responded.
She chuckled. "Steven, you are the same boy who jumped on the grenade at Camp Lehigh, it doesn't matter how you've aged." The kindness of her words as she said his name moved him in a way that no one had in a long time. "My people age far slower than Midgardians, so physically aging is an honour. I hope that one day, I experience the blessings of the years."
"What... what age are you?"
"Are you quite certain you want to know?" She asked, a hint of a smirk on her lips. When he nodded after a moment's hesitation, she continued; "I am 578 years old."
His jaw nearly hit the floor in shock. He looked at her features intently, his mind clawing desperately for anything to say. She didn't look a day over 25, and hadn't since the 40's.
"That's... um, pretty old." He stuttered out. Well, that was not what he had meant to say.
Her melodic laugh reached his ears and he had to admit, he breathed out a sigh of relief. "Captain, that is not a very becoming thing to say to a lady," She giggled. "I am barely a quarter of the way through my life span."
"God, sorry I didn't mean it like that, just... It's all so strange."
"I know, Captain. It is a long time in comparisons to a Midgardians life. I hope that it does not disturb you too much."
In the silence of the room, Steve suddenly became aware of the distance between them, or rather, the lack thereof. She was so close he could almost feel her breath on her face, as her eyelashes fluttered, looking up at him.
Her irresistible eyes.
He could reach out and grab her, right now. It would be easy, romantic, passionate, wonderful. He wanted to do it, badly. To feel his hands on her waist, to wrap her in his arms. He wondered, briefly, if she would tangle her hands in his hair.
In the real world, he couldn't do it. They had been apart for nearly a century, and even when they knew each other, they hadn't gotten that far. He didn't know if she still... felt that way.
His head was spinning, everything seemed to be moving too quickly and too slowly at the same time. Mayday, mayday, mayday.
He cleared his throat and moved away. Well, it was more of a jump. So much for looking normal, he thought to himself.
"We should go for dinner, uh... people will be waiting." He examined her features. She smiled politely, but her eyes betrayed something else. Was that... disappointment he detected? He was probably wishful thinking.
"Of course, Captain. I will get changed into the clothes Natasha brought for me, and then we shall go." She elegantly picked up some clothes, and wandered to the bathroom.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dinner was lively as ever. At Thor's request, everyone had joined the team in the dining room for some pizza. Steve and the Princess wandered in later than everybody else, but were welcomed with cheers and laughter. It was nice.
"Princess (y/n)!" Thor boomed, motioning his friends over to two empty seats beside him. "I believe you have met everyone bar the young master Parker, over here." He pointed towards a young brunet boy, sitting rather awkwardly at the corner of the large table.
He waved, whispering a barely audible "Hi."
"Hello, Master Parker. I am (y/n) of Alfheim."
"Yeah, I heard, um. It's Peter, not Master Parker. My name I mean. If you want to- if it's your tradition or whatever you can call me that too I just... um, most of the uh avengers call me Peter, I mean." He placed a hand over his face in what even the princess understood was teen angst.
"Peter, then." She smiled politely at the young, flailing boy.
"I call him bugboy, if that's any more appeasing to you." A familiar voice parted through the din of the many, many conversations being had around the table. The princess looked to see Bucky sitting across from them, next to the man called Sam.
She laughed politely, at his joke, understanding immediately that the young avenger certainly experienced a lot of jokes at his expense.
Her attention was diverted, once again, by Mr. Stark. "Have you ever had the Midgardian delicacy of pizza, your highness?" There was a hint of sarcasm to his deference, that was not unnoticed by (y/n).
"Tony, she lived in Brooklyn in the 40s. Of course she's had pizza." Steve spoke up for her, also noticing the way Tony laced disquiet with her titles. He was being overprotective over pizza, and even though he was aware of the fact, he couldn't stop himself.
"Actually, Captain, I never got around to trying it during my time here."
A silence befell the dining room.
"What?" The harsh words came from Bucky, but it was a sentiment echoed quickly by Cap, and then young Peter.
"How could you have lived in New York for several years, and not had pizza?" Steve laughed at the Princess, who sheepishly smiled.
"I honestly did not realise it was a food, and I lived mostly on army rations anyway..." She explained.
"Oh my god, she's never lived." Sam spoke, dead-pan.
Tony finally interrupted the cacophony. "Well then, ma'am, consider this evening an education."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The evening was lovely. The conversation (and wine) flowed, never a dull moment. Thor and the Princess dazzled with tales of their worlds and the many battles they had faced. Steve and Bucky reminisced with the Princess about the times they had shared together.
As the evening grew quieter, the Princess found herself feeling safe, for the first time in a while. She was all too aware of Cap's arm slung over the back of her chair, dangerously close to being around her shoulders. Her heart skipped a beat every time he leant down to her ear, to share something only with her. It was an honour and a privilege, for his words to reach only her ear.
For the last 80 years, she had felt like she was spinning out of control. With the war, and especially the last attack, things had been worse than ever. But now, she could get used to this.
She dared, as she laughed at one of Tony's jokes, to put her head on the Captain's shoulder. As she did, she happened to catch Bucky's eye - he smiled and winked.
Yeah, she could definitely get used to this.
Unfortunately, she wouldn't get the chance to.

pleaser part 4 pls 🙏🙏🙏
Hiiii! I hope you like it!
Sorry I left it on a cliffhanger again but I'll have the next part this weekend if anyone wants it!
Also, I'm sorry it took so long for me to write this, but I literally had almost 20 requests in my ask box for it. HOPEFULLY it doesn't suck😭
AND I STG BAD IDEA, RIGHT?(Part 4) IS STILL COMING! I'm struggling to get the end just right lmao.
Pleaser - Stepbrother!Ethan Landry x Fem!Reader - Part 4
This contains SMUT - Minors DNI
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3
Summary: You're still sneaking around with your stepbrother, and it's looking like you have the chance to actually be together with your mom and his dad splitting up.
Contains: p in v, fingering-ish, thigh riding, stepcest but like...your mom and Ethan's dad aren't really together anymore so is it really that bad💀(I know I'm probably missing something but if I read this again, I'll delete the whole fucking thing lmao)
A/N: There's a lot of dialog in this fic, even the smut. If that's not your thing, don't read it:)
After a couple weeks of you sneaking around with Ethan, you started to get a little reckless. You knew how close you were to leaving for college, and you knew the odds of your mom sending you away at the last minute weren’t very high. It got to the point where he was sneaking through your bedroom window every night because you didn’t want to sleep without him. Then, he’d have an alarm set to wake up before Wayne and your mom would get up for work and go back to his room.
The situation between your mom and his dad seemed to be civil, even though Wayne had to sleep on the couch while he tried to find a house. He even contemplated getting an apartment for him and Ethan while they figured it out, but your mom was adamant that it wasn’t a big deal. As irritated as she was over the situation, she didn’t feel right for Ethan to bounce from place to place right before he was leaving for college anyway.
You were sure that your mom had no idea that you were still spending time with Ethan, but she started to notice little things. The flirty glances, the sneaky subtle touches. But what really let her know that you’d found a way to spend alone time with Ethan was when you were helping her make dinner, like you always did, and you put your hair up to get it out of the way. She saw the huge purple mark on the nape of your neck, and she realized that you had no idea it was even there once Ethan walked into the kitchen to see what was for dinner, and his eyes grew wide the second he saw it. He motioned for you to put your hair back down, your cheeks turning bright red. You thought she didn’t notice because she didn’t say anything, but she was planning to later that night after dinner.
Just like clockwork, you and Ethan excused yourself to go to bed right after dinner was over. He was crawling through your bedroom window as you walked over to cut the lights off, your room only lit by the moonlight that was pouring through the window before Ethan closed it and drew the curtains shut.
As you crawled in bed with him, he couldn’t keep his hands off you. Your back was pressed to his chest as your legs were spread for him, his fingers rubbing over your panties as he placed open mouth kisses along the side of your neck.
“You’re so hard,” you said, as your ass was pressed against his cock that was straining in his boxers.
“You always do this to me,” he mumbled against your neck. “I want to fuck you so bad right now.”
“You can,” you whispered, as he slid your panties to the side.
“You think you can be quiet?” he asked, a gasp slipping past your lips as he slid one of his fingers inside you.
Before you could say anything else, you heard a light knock on your door before it eased open. Ethan pulled his hand away from you as you closed your legs. You both froze in fear as you saw the silhouette of your mom as she made her way inside your room.
“Are you still awake?” she whispered, as she tried to navigate through the darkness of your room.
“Yeah, I was almost asleep. Just don’t cut the light on,” you said, your anxiety creeping up as she sat down on the foot of your bed.
“We need to talk about you and Ethan,” she said softly, “I know you’ve still been sneaking around.”
Ethan was trying to be as still as possible as he laid beside you. He was so thankful for your blackout curtains, and how you really couldn’t see anything in the room.
“I know you’re probably going to try to deny it, and I don’t want you to lie to me right now. Please be honest with me,” she said, as you took a deep breath.
“When am I going to dads?” you asked, confirming her suspicions without actually admitting to it.
“Do you love Ethan?” she asked, as you tensed up. You hadn’t said those three words yet, and you knew she was just trying to have girl talk with you to know where your feelings were, but you didn’t want to tell her when he was right behind you. “I think he loves you. He looks at you like it’s way more than just some fling.”
“It’s not just some fling,” you said, as you felt Ethan's hand rubbing against the back of your thigh. “I guess I do have really strong feelings for him.”
“I know I was upset when I first found out about the two of you, but I really like him. I’ve seen a different side of him since the weekend that Wayne and I went on our little trip,” she said, as she started to laugh to herself. “You know he used to annoy the shit out of me.”
“He’s actually really sweet,” you said, as his hand just kept moving.
“I’m not going to send you to your dads…and I think I’ll ask Wayne and Ethan to take the cameras down. They don’t really seem to be serving a purpose,” she said, “But, don’t think that I’m okay with the two of you going crazy. I don’t want to walk in here one morning and see him in your bed or something.”
“I’m not that stupid,” you mumbled, “But I’m really tired. Can we talk more about this tomorrow?”
“Of course, honey. Get some sleep,” she said, as she stood up to make her way towards the door. “If you want, we can go get stuff for your dorm tomorrow. Ethan can come, too.”
“Cool, I’ll ask him about it in the morning,” you said, as she opened the door and walked out, quietly closing it behind her.
You and Ethan laid in silence for a few minutes to give your mom plenty of time to go to bed, but he still snaked his arm around you to hold you close.
“Did she just give you permission for us to be together?” he whispered in your ear.
“I think so,” you said, smiling at the thought of it. “I’m sorry if she made things awkward.”
“I think the only awkward part was me being in the bed with you and she had no idea,” he said as he softly laughed against your neck. “Are you talking about the feelings stuff?”
“Yeah…I know we haven’t really discussed that yet. I didn’t know what to say.”
“Do you have really strong feelings for me like you said?” he said, as his hand ran up your thigh.
“I do,” you said softly.
“Good, because your mom was right…about me loving you.”
“You love me?” you asked, as he nodded his head against you.
“I have since we were left alone for the whole weekend.”
You adjusted on the bed so you were facing him, your legs tangling with his as he held you close.
“Why didn’t you say something sooner?” you questioned, as he sighed.
“It’s a complicated situation. I didn’t want to say it until I knew we actually had a chance to be together.”
“I love you, too, babe,” you said, as you leaned up to kiss him. You started to laugh against his lips once you felt how hard he still was, his cock brushing against you. “You’re still hard.”
“I told you; the idea of getting caught is my kink,” he mumbled against your lips. “You still want me to fuck you?”
“Mhm.”
He connected his lips to yours again, his hand running over the curve of your ass as he rubbed his cock against you. You were getting more wet by the second, the anticipation building as his tongue moved across your bottom lip. He moved his leg so his thigh was pressed against your pussy, as you started to grind against him, gasping at the friction on your clit.
Your breathing got heavier as you kept moving your hips, and once his hand on you ass was helping you move faster, you were trying so hard to be quiet. He started to groan once he felt how wet you were, your panties completely soaked as you rubbed against him.
“You think you could cum like this?” Ethan said, his tone teasing as his hand went to your hip to hold you down harder against him.
“Oh fuck,” you whimpered, as he softly laughed.
You reached between the two of you to palm him over his boxers, as he helped you move. He attached his lips to yours again to keep quiet himself, because his cock was throbbing so hard as your hand moved over the fabric. He wanted to fuck you so bad, but he wanted you to fall apart over his thigh in between your legs first.
You were whimpering into the kiss as you felt yourself start to get close. He pulled his lips away from yours, his bottom lip in between his teeth as he helped you move as fast as you could.
“Oh my god,” you said, your voice strained as he helped bring you closer to the edge.
“Try to be quiet, baby,” he said, his voice raspy as your legs started to tremble.
“I can’t,” you panted, “Fuck, we’re gonna get caught.”
“No, we’re not,” he said, as he leaned down to kiss you, hard. His mouth caught all the sounds you were trying to hard to hold in as your orgasm hit, your hand still shakily rubbing over his cock.
The grip he had on your hip loosened as you slowed down, your moans turning to soft whimpers as you started to relax against him.
“That was so hot,” he said against your lips, as your breathing started to slow.
“Now, I need to make you cum,” you said softly, reaching into his boxers to pull his cock out.
He let out a low moan once you started stroking, paying extra attention to his sensitive tip.
“Try to be quiet, baby,” you teased, “You want me to suck it?”
“I need to be inside you,” he said, “I want to feel your pussy.”
“Okay, let me grab a condom,” you said, untangling your legs from his before you rolled over to reach into your nightstand.
“I still think it’s funny that you don’t hide them under your bed anymore,” he said, chuckling as you reached into the almost empty box.
“What’s the point? My mom knows I’m not a virgin now,” you shrugged, as you felt him move closer to you, his hand pulling you towards him so your back was against his chest again.
“I can’t believe she thought you were just so innocent,” he said, as his lips went to your neck again, his hand running under the big t-shirt you were wearing. He squeezed your breast, a soft moan slipping past your lips at the feeling.
“I am innocent,” you said, your words making him squeeze you harder.
“You’re far from innocent…especially when you’re in bed with me.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” you said, playing dumb as you moved so your ass was firmly pressed against his cock.
“Keep that shit up and you won’t be able to be quiet,” he playfully warned, as he started to suck on your neck.
You moaned at the feeling as his hand moved to your hips, hooking your panties under his thumb as you adjusted to make it easier for him to slide them down. You passed him the condom, your anticipation building as you heard him open it. He rolled it on and grabbed your leg, spreading them open so it’d be easier for him to slide inside of you.
“Don’t be loud,” he reminded you, as he started to push inside you.
“Oh my god,” you whispered, feeling him stretch your walls.
“Shh, you can take it.”
Once Ethan was all the way in, he stilled to give you time to adjust, but that wasn’t what you wanted. You started to move your hips, giving your pussy the friction it was craving. He groaned at your actions as his hand started to roam under your shirt again.
“You gonna help me out or not?” you asked, once you’d been moving for a little bit and he wasn’t.
“I want you to beg me for it,” he said, as you kept moving.
“Please?” you asked, as he chuckled.
“Not good enough,” he teased, “Tell me how bad you want it.”
“So fucking bad,” you said, as his hand moved to your hip. “I need you to fuck me, please baby.”
He started to move, but it was so slow. He was helping you meet his thrusts, the tip of his cock hitting that spot every single time, but you needed so much more.
“Ethan,” you whined, as he shushed you. “Please.”
He didn’t know how quiet you were going to be, but he couldn’t hold back anymore. He started giving you hard, deep thrusts, as your hand slapped over your mouth. The grip he had on your hip was getting tighter, as your free hand started to grip at the sheets. He placed kisses along your neck as he started to whisper in your ear.
“You take my cock so well.”
“Your pussy is perfect.”
“I’ve got you.”
He knew you were getting close, the sounds muffled by your hand just getting louder as he started to go faster.
“Keep moving your hips, baby.”
You did as he said, his hand leaving your hip to rub fast circles against your clit. You were whimpering as your toes started to curl, your entire body getting hot as he brought you closer to your orgasm.
He let out a low groan when your pussy started to clench him, his fingers pressing even harder as he rubbed your clit. Your body started to arch against him as you cried out against your palm, your eyes rolling back as the intense euphoric feeling washed over you.
“Gonna cum,” he panted, as his hand went back to your hip, his cock giving you a few more hard thrusts before his grip on you got shaky. “Fuuuck.”
You both laid there, the only sounds in the room were the heavy breathing coming from the two of you until it started to return to normal. He slid out of you and crawled off the bed to navigate around the darkness of your room to the trash can to dispose of the condom before he laid back down and wrapped his arms around you. You soon dozed off with Ethan’s head nuzzled against your neck.
The next morning, you woke up with Ethan’s arms still wrapped around you. You reached over to your nightstand to check your phone, your eyes growing wide once you noticed that Ethan didn’t set his alarm.
“Babe, wake up,” you said, your hand shaking his arm as he sleepily mumbled. “Ethan, it’s almost eight.”
“Fuck,” he whispered as he sat up and jumped out of bed. “Where’s my sweatpants?”
He walked over to your curtains to let a little light in so he could see, his heart pounding in his chest one he noticed your mom working in the flower bed right outside of your window. The moving curtains caught her attention, and when she glanced up, she saw Ethan quickly trying to close them.
“Your mom’s out there,” he whisper-yelled, feeling around on your floor until he finally found his sweatpants.
“Did she see you?” you questioned, jumping off the bed to put your pajama bottoms on.
“Fuck, I don’t know,” he said, “I’m so stupid.”
You tried to think of a plan, but once you heard the front door open, you walked over to your bedroom door and eased it open to see your mom walk in.
“Out the window, now,” you said, rushing him as he did what you said.
Once he was out of your room and you closed the window behind him, you turned around to walk back to the door to see your mom standing there.
“Maybe we do need to look into you going to your dads.”

JAY HALSTEAD MASTERLIST | TAG LIST SIGN-UP
⚠️ THIS IS A REPOST FROM MY MAIN BLOG @/DLMLUFICS. UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE TO DO IT THIS WAY. MORE INFO IN MY PINNED POST.
As Y/N studies the file Trudy handed her as soon as she entered the station, she is slouched over with her elbows resting on her desk and her fingers massaging her temple. She finds it difficult to focus on the written words on the papers, and the more she tries the worse her nausea and headache becomes.
Jay ends their conversation with Atwater about their weekend plans and turns to face his girlfriend when she doesn't respond to a question, he's asked her. His face furrowed into a worried expression. She didn't look well last night and this morning, her mood was all over the place, and she had been strangely quiet since they had their morning shower together.
"Are you okay?" he asks after he gets her attention.
"I'm fine," she sighs as she shoots up from her chair and rushes out of the bullpen and into the restroom, a wave of nausea washing over her once more.
Jay wasn't the only person who noticed the odd shift in Y/N. He steps out from behind his desk as Kim gets up from hers, assuring him she'll go check on her. As he sits down, he nods, silently thanking her. His concern for his fiancée has him unable to concentrate on the file in front of him. He leans back in his chair, monitoring the entrance, nervously chewing his cheek, and tapping his pen against his knee as he waits for her to return.
Y/N is slumped over one of the toilets in the restroom, unsure if the bile in her stomach will come up. She shuts her eyes and wills her stomach to stop churning and her head to stop spinning.
"Y/N?" From the doorway, Kim's quiet voice can be heard.
She stands up and braces herself against the cubicle's metal walls as her head spins, calling out to her from the end stall, "In here."
"Are you sure you're alright?" Kim asks, her expression apprehensive. In comparison to five minutes ago, Y/N looks worse. She nods her head before swinging her head side to side. The brunette detective steps forward to comfort her. "What's wrong?"
She informs her, "I'm late."
"Late?" Kim questions her. When Y/N gives her a look, Kim's eyes widen in surprise. "How late are you?"
"About 2 to 3 weeks," she responds, recalling last night when she realized her period was late. She never kept track of it, but every month, give or take a few days, she always got it around the same time. However, it was never this late.
She first reasoned with herself that she might not have remembered having it two weeks earlier since she's been so preoccupied with work, the upcoming wedding, and the drama going on between her parents. But then she remembered back to seven weeks ago. She'd gotten her period the Monday before her, and Jay went away for the weekend. She was down to her last two sanitary items when it ended the Friday morning they left for the cabin. She made a note in her phone to get more when her period started next. That Friday night and Saturday had been spent mostly in bed and there might have been one time they forgot to be careful.
"Do you believe you might be?"
"Maybe. I'm not sure," She breathes.
"Have you spoken with Jay?"
Shaking her head, Y/N "It might just be pre-wedding jitters, right? When you're under pressure, periods can be late."
"Is Jay still going out with Will tonight?" Kim enquiries.
She nods, "He is. Will said something about it being bachelor party business."
"Well then, how about a girls' night at your place?" Kim suggests. "I'll provide the snacks and pregnancy tests, and you can order some pizza and choose the movies."
"I don't have a choice, do I?" Y/N asks, looking at her anxiously.
"Hell no," Kim smiles.
She asks jokingly, "What would I do without you, Kim Burgess?"
"Crash and burn," Kim responds. "This is what best friends and work partners are for. Now, let's get back out there before Jay bursts in with guns blazing."
Kim leads Y/N out of the restroom, then let's go of her when they reach the bullpen. Jay is still waiting warily at his desk when Y/N approaches him. Her legs are crossed in front of her as she leans on his desk with her arms folded across her chest.
Looking up at her with the same deeply concerned blue eyes as before, he asks, "Everything okay?"
"I've got a headache but it's finally going away," she tells him, and it's not a lie. "Kim is coming over tonight while you're out with Will. Bachelorette party business."
"You know, we could disappoint them both, forgo the bachelor/bachelorette parties, and just spend the night together, just the two of us," he proposes, a hopeful look in his eyes. Jay is still unaware of his brother's plans for his party, and a part of him is afraid to find out.
"And rob them of their duties as best man and maid of honor?" she asks, smiling and feeling considerably better than a few minutes ago. For the time being, she pushes her possible pregnancy to the back of her mind as they focus on wedding talk. "We'd break their little hearts, and I don't think I can handle Kim staring at me with those puppy eyes."
He concurs with her, saying, "I don't think I can handle seeing them too."
She reassures him, "It was a wonderful suggestion, though. Perfect even."
He smiles again, this time with a mischievous glimmer in his eye, "Maybe next time."
"Next time?" she asks, pretending to be upset, knowing he was joking with her. "Honey, I may not be the first person you said, 'I do' with, but I'm damn sure going to be the last."
He chuckles, "I meant in 40 years when we renew our vows, and the kids are all grown up."
Her smile falters a little at the mention of kids. Jay catches it, but Hank exits his office with a piece of paper in his hand before he can say anything.
"Halstead, Upton, I need you two to go check out this person," he orders, handing Hailey the piece of paper.
"I love you. Be safe," Y/N instructs Jay as he gets up and puts his jacket on. It was something the two of them say often before they leave the district without each other.
"I love you too and I will," he responds, kissing her lips briefly before following Hailey down the stairs. Y/N returns to the file on her desk, now that she can focus better on it.
Later on in the evening, Y/N sat by herself on the couch as she awaited Jay's return from his night out with his brother. Before Kim and Hailey, whom Y/N had invited when she and Jay returned to the district, forced her into the bathroom, she managed to spend a significant portion of the night avoiding the two pregnancy test boxes that were sitting on the kitchen counter. Hailey didn't require much persuasion once Kim explained what was going on; she immediately agreed to whatever Kim had planned. It was a two-on-one situation, and Y/N regretted agreeing with Kim's plans for tonight.
Just as they were about to find out the results, Jay called Y/N to let her know he was on his way back home. Kim and Hailey both agreed that they should leave so that she could talk to Jay alone but made Y/N promise to keep them in the loop. After the two left, Y/N became too anxious to look at the tests herself and left them sitting on a paper towel beside the bathroom sink.
It felt like an eternity passed before she heard Jay's key in the lock and the door opening. She stands up and moves around the coffee table to meet him halfway.
"Hey, can we talk?" she asks him, her voice wavering with nerves.
"Yeah. What's up?" he asks, the bright smile on his handsome face fading as he takes in her nervous appearance and voice.
Biting the inside of her cheek, her head is flooded with 100 different ways she can bring up the pregnancy tests in the bathroom. She starts rubbing her hands together, to give them something to do and to stop herself from pacing a hole in the floor. She's never felt so anxious about telling someone something before.
"Talk to me," he gently tells her when she remains quiet, too far inside her own head. Jay looks at her worried and takes her hands into his. He strokes the back of her hands with his thumb, calming her slightly. "What's going on? Did something happen tonight? Are you feeling sick again? Did your headache come back? Are you-" he begins to ramble only to be cut off by her finding her voice again.
"I love you so much, Jay. I really do. You're my best friend, the love of my life and," Y/N starts, her voice thick with nerves. "You're my voice of reason but right now I need you to shut up."
"What's going on?" he asks, letting her words roll off him. "You've been acting weird since last night."
Her mind blanks as she tries to find the words to tell him that on top of becoming a husband in a month's time, that he almost might possibly be a dad also and the tests to determine whether he will be a dad or not are currently on the bathroom counter waiting to be looked at.
Getting an idea, she hurries into the bathroom, leaving Jay standing there confused by her actions. He doesn't recall a time that he's seen her like this, ever, and to say he isn't concerned would be the biggest understatement of the century.
She comes back holding the test in her hands and tells him, "I can't bring myself to look at them."
The look on his face turns from one of concern to a look of surprise. "It would explain a lot."
She nods agreeing with him as she sits on their couch. He moves to sit next to her. "If the tests are positive, the only thing that's going to change is that we're going to be parents."
"And if they're not?"
"Then we can try when we've settled into married life."
"I love you," she says looking at him, still avoiding looking at the tests.
"I love you too," he smiles, kissing her softly. He takes one of the pregnancy tests from her, "Ready?"
She nods again. They both look at the tests in their hands, both having the two small pink lines come up.
"Looks like we're getting married and having a baby," Jay says looking at the test in her hands, seeing that one is also positive.
Y/N looks at him, seeing a small smile on his face. "Are you okay with that?"
"When I proposed, I said I wanted to do it all with you and that included starting a family. It's just happening a little sooner than we expected. So, I'm more than okay with that."
"How did I get so lucky?" she smiles lovingly at him.
"I ask myself that every day," he says kissing her again, his hand moving to her belly. "You're going to make an amazing mom."
She covers his hand with hers, her smile growing, "And you're going to be an incredible dad."

Alpha! Izuku x Omega! Male reader
°•______________________________________________•°
Reader is Bakugo's little brother here.
⚠️ this is somewhat suggestive. Not anything explicitly stated? I don't think? No actual sex. Kinda smut, kinda not smut.
I don't really care if you're fem aligned and you choose to read this, just don't interact pls
°•______________________________________________•°
Izuku lounged on his bed, scrolling on his phone. He smirked when explicit videos and pictures of his endeavors with his toy. M/N. His rival's little brother. Katsuki was always very protective of his little brother, rarely letting him out of his sight. Allowing him to cling onto him, walking him to class, letting him sit with him during lunch.
Yet despite all his efforts, Izuku was able to get close enough to corrupt him and take away his innocence.
Everyday, weekends excluded, he'd have him in the morning and after school. Bending him over and ruining him on his own brother's desk.
He knew how Katsuki would feel if he caught them, if he saw the bruises he left, the hickeys, the bite marks.
Katsuki noticed the little things, like his brother having less and less energy, limping, wincing every time he sat down.
He spoke less and less and put less and less effort into the things he loved.
Then he was sick.
Waking up every night to throw up last night's dinner or the breakfast he just ate. He started wearing bigger and baggier clothes, as well as staying home in bed more often. Rarely even leaving his room.
Soon enough, Katsuki had enough. After trying every single remedy in the book, he took him to the doctor. His brother was becoming weaker and weaker by the day, only being able to hold down water and fruit. Everything else was ejected into their shared bathroom toilet. Days later, the results finally arrived.
His little brother was pregnant.
Who? When?
Katsuki paced around, his brother sitting on the couch, staring at his lap. Silent. After what felt like hours of trying to find the words. Trying to process and ask the right questions.
Once he found them, he questioned his brother, with the softest tone he could muster. After a bit of prodding, his brother burst out into sobs and explained every single thing he and Izuku had done.
Katsuki stared. Silently.
What the hell? What the hell is he gonna say?
°•______________________________________________•°
A/N: I know, this was left on a cliffhanger. Don't kill me pls-
Kinda short too. If you want a part 2, idk. Idk what I'll do. I might make one. We'll seee
Also, FIRST POST!!! YAAAAAA
Part 2
Ur welcome ❤️

Kæmpe Stør’s life part 4:
Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4.5
Welcome to High School Stør!
Puberty is hitting Stør like a train. He’s also growing rapidly now. Ah yes… the awkward teenage phase! Stør still has a baby face COVERED in acne. He’s very self-conscious about his acne because one pimple about the size of a human fist👊 and hard to miss.
The bullying has increased in the last few years, with people realizing Stor is just a big push over. Literally. He would never retaliate or raise a hand to anyone who mistreats him. Both out of worry he might accidentally hurt them and because Stør doesn’t have it in him to hurt anyone on purpose.
Thankfully, Stør has Yilan to stick up for him, and he does. Constantly. (Strega can’t do much, she’s still in middle school.)
By now, Yilan’s father ran out on them, he sends money, but they haven’t been in contact in a few years. Yilan HATES his mom’s new dead beat boyfriend, so he stays away from home. Yilan practically moves in with Stør, staying after school and on weekends. Luckily for Yilan, Stør has two dads who love Yilan.
——————————————————————————
It’s in his freshman year of High school that Stør meets Mizu Rivers for the first time…
She was in his 3rd period English Lit class. At first Mizu didn't stand out from the rest of the class, she stared at Stør or acted nervous when he was near. Not an unusual reaction, Stør tries to not take it personally, he can only imagine how intimidating he looks to others. But it still hurts. A lot.
----------
It's not until Stør gets (reluctantly) assigned to a group project with Mizu and her two "Friends" Nero (A water nymph & Mizu's cousin) and Lilith (a Succubus), that Stør finally interacts with Mizu.
Nero and Lilith slack off on their work and largely ignore Stør as he's trying to get the group on track to write their paper on the book "Gulliver's Travel's." Mizu doesn't make eye contact or talk to Stør so he's left at a loss for what to do.
Stør: H-hey, maybe we should actually start working on the project like the teacher said…
Nero: If you want it done so bad, do it YOURSELF. You’re a big boy…
Nero: (looks down) …literally…
Stør: 😟😵💫😧
Nero: Whatever. Let's go girls. 🙄
Nero stands up and leaves the classroom. While poor Stør is left red in the face and realing.
In his shock he looked at the other girls at the window. Lilith dgaf and just walked after Nero. And Mizu--- did... is Mizu making direct eye contact with Stør for the first time?
He could have imagined it, in fact he probably did, but she held fast. She quietly mouths the words "I'm sorry," and quickly runs after her friends.
Stør was left sitting alone, dumbfounded, and at a loss of what just happened and what to do next.
—————————————————————————
That night, Stør contemplates telling the teacher of his peers unwillingness to do the assignment, when he gets an email from Mizu:
"Hey Store, Story, Stor? (However you spell it, idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
sorry about Nero and Lilith today, they never want to do their work. But don't worry about the assignment! ;D I'll type My part and their parts. Just worry about yours!
See you tomorrow!"
Stør quickly messaged back:
"Hi M. Rivers,
Thanks for reaching out, and explaining the situation, I really appreciate it!
I think it might be better if we split the assignment between the two of us?
I can write Lilith's part and you can do Nero's?
I don't want you to get overwhelmed with extra work!
See you tomorrow,
PS. My name is spelled "Stør""
A little later, Stør receives this email:
"That would be lovely!
Thank you, Stør!
Ps. just call me "Mizu" ;)"

Shatter my soul ~ Part - 2
Summary : Harry has been suffering from an addiction and y/n decides to take time for herself or based on this ask
Pairing: rockstarboyfried!Harry x reader!y/n
Warnings: Angst
My masterlist
Read part 1 here
I love you and I've loved you since the day I met you. I'm sorry i couldn't realise how to be better for you for us when you were here. You were the only one who struck by me through it all and now I'd do the same for you but there are some truths you need to know before. I swore to be honest and I wanna be that way with you because that's the least you deserve.
All those your friends tell you they hate me but they spend the nights you are out in my bed. I had no recollection of the first time it happened. After a particular hars session I was high and drunk i thought it was you but when she showed back two days later I didn't stop it. I should have I knew I should have but I didn't and I don't know why I didn't.
I don't even remember what happened the night before because I was that high. It think I needed osme kind of relief that the drugs couldn't give me or maybe i wanted to hurt you. I'm an arrogant son of a bitch and you shouldn't be with someone like me. You should be with someone who would treat you well and take care of you like you deserve to be. Everyone taught us to chase money for happiness but they have no idea what losing happiness is an that's what's I felt when you left me. The last ounce of happiness walking out of my life leaving me with nothing and I wanted it back because it was everything to be an di didn't even know it until I lost it.
But i was never that kind of happiness to you. You loved doing you job, you lived little things around you that brought you happiness but I wasn't one of them because all I ever did was hurt you.
I wish there will be a day when I get to the place to be someone you deserve. I'll come find you if I ever become worthy of loving you. Untill then if that ever happens I wish you all the happiness because that is all you deserve in this cruel world.
I will always love with my whole heart y/n.
Love, your H
*
I love sunsets, the beautiful hues of colours filling the cloudy sky. Driving out to the suburbs and watching the chemtrails with her little brother every weekend was y/n's favourite thing.
"Harry called me yesterday" he says as he munches his waffles they got on the way.
"He wished me for my birthday and asked about you" he says as he side eyes her trying to see her reaction.
Nate's birthday was ten days earlier but y/n did give harry credit that he had called.
It had been almost a year since she moved away from New York. All she had there were haunting memories she wished to forget. The sun sets as they sit on the back of the truck eating the food. After reading the letter y/n knew what she had to do. And that was to get away from there as soon as possible.
She couldn't believe she had trusted people who would do this behind her back. Y/n thought moving back home would help her mend her broken heart but after weeks of crying over the betrayal and hurt she was numb.
Harry was her home. She doesn't even remember her life before him. 11years through thick and thin all for nothing. She moved out on her own after three months and adopted a puppy to keep her company. She doesn't know she would ever get over him. Would people ever get over their first love. She didn't know but she knew it will be better. It's going to get better.
Harry had been clean since their breakup and she couldn't be more proud of him. They hadn't talked or seen each other in a year. All y/n knew was she was miserable without him. After reading the letter y/n had disappeared from all of her friends life and while they were worried and had spammed her phone like they care she never replied. How do you trust someone when every single person you had trusted had backstabbed you?
*
The city was beautiful after a rain. A chill in the air making harry hug his coat tighter as he walks around. He had been doing well. His next album was ready to be released in few weeks, he was clean for almost two years but the hole in his heart didn't seem to be mending. It only grew bigger every day he was away from her. He knew she wouldn't forgive him. He also knew she was it for him but now it has all gone the drain and he has to live the rest of his life without her.
He stops to get a coffee and his eyes spots a familiar face in the corner her beautiful laugh echoing through the cafe. He spots a blond guy sitting opposite to her and his heart sinks further. Right as he was about to leave y/n's eyes meets his and a smile grazes her features and Harry returns it as y/n turns her focus back to the guy she was talking. Harry is about to walk away when y/n gets up nodding at the guy before hurriedly walking out.
"Hi Harry" she starts and Harry engulfs her in a hug which y/n happily hugs back. God knows she missed his hugs. They just made her feel like she was finally home and safe
"god....I missed you so much, how have you been?" he asks a little hesitant.
"I'm all good, created a whole new life. think I needed the change..." She ends nothing wanting to sound like it was all his fault.
"I'm really really sorry y/n... you were the best thing that ever happened to me and I just can't believe-"
"h, it's okay. I've forgiven you a long time ago." y/n cuts in much to Harry's surprise to hear she had forgiven him. " so how have you been?"
"I have been good, pulled my life together. been sober for almost two years now."
"that's really great to hear h, im so proud of you" y/n says and Harry nods with a smile. It's a little silent as they both decide how to go further from this. harry was in over his head about losing her again because that is what he deserves after everything so he was ready to bid goodbye and leave her life for good but y/n spoke up before him "You wanna grab a coffee?" she asks pointing towards the cafe.
harry was glad to hear y/n still wanted him in her life and vows to never break her trust again and to win back her trust no matter what and y/n on the other hand is ready to try to mend their broken relationship. it will be slow progress but as they sit there laughing as they share their life like they used to they both knew that they will be okay.
A/n : I know you guys wanted Harry to beg to take him back but I made this as them realising they were meant for each other. And the begging gave me another idea for a one shot so see you there. Thanks for the ask anon 🫶🏻

You're going to pay
-Are you serious? right now? ok boy but that will be another month in your body you fucking pervert!- I couldn't help but smirk when I looked at him he looked like shit, his t-shirt was so soaked with sweat I could see those 2 saggy full tits of fat through his shirt, I still don't understand how he can come to the gym with me every day and not have lost weight.
Anyway, that's not my problem, As long as he's a fagot he keeps paying for all this I don't give a shit, At this rate I'm going to have his life completely in one or two years. Anyway, I don't think he'll mind seeing apartments as long as he lives in the building. Maybe at some point I'll let him move in with me to help me out as a maid.
I own an apartment building that my father left me, it's pretty cool because I don't have to work and I could stay home and play video games or watch TV, well… technically I'm not the owner now But I'm the only one who knows the keys to the bank, maybe next year i'll buy a sporty lamborghini or something, these biceps would look great in one of those.
Jake was a very rude tenant, every weekend he would party with his friends until 3 am, he would leave the garbage outside his apartment hoping that one of the other neighbors would take care of it as if they were his servants or his parents, when Jake he was a month or 2 behind on the rent but when he started completely ignoring me for not paying, I decided to give him one last warning "you're going to pay me one way or another"
And of course he ended up paying, I could have taken anything from his apartment but I decided to take the only thing that really mattered to him, I wouldn't give him a chance to escape from that debt. He should have read the entire lease when he moved out.
Wasting no more of my time I flexed my hot biceps in front of him to show off my hot sweaty pits that he had been waiting so long to worship and lick in front of all the gym patrons, he didn't seem to care that all the gym patrons were watching while like a bitch played with the hairs of my armpit with his tongue.
The feel of her wet tongue moving under my huge arms slightly tickled him even more than the first time I let him do it in the gym bathroom.
He and I had an agreement that I would give him back his body while he trained mine to pay off his debts, at first it was a couple of hours a day I would walk her to the gym so I could have a little fun showing off his muscles while he soaked my shirt in the treadmill, then he was late paying rent again so I took his body back so I could have fun in some hotel fucking some of the girls on his cell phone while he cleaned my apartment, and now I don't think I'm back my body in two weeks or so.
I pushed him away from me and he fell to the ground, he looked so fucked up and disgusting that I could hardly believe I was the one who looked like this some time ago, I tossed my iPhone at his flabby belly, a smile on my face. handsome and perfect face flex my huge arms again to show my armpits that are already completely clean.
Hey folks! if you like bodyswap stories take a look at my patreon, I have a lot of more stories, and you can help me keep creating more stories!

"get me a damned matcha" | Chapter 1: June I
{{ Chapter 2: July I }} Chapter Directory
I'm so excited to finally publish this jdkflsjd. I'll get this chapter up on AO3 later this weekend or on Monday since my parents are in town, so I'm not sure how much I'll be able to be on! If you're interested in getting tagged for updates, fill out this new form here: x :3
EDIT: this is now up on AO3 as well!
✧ pairing ➼ levi ackermann x fem!reader, college x coffee shop x roommates!au ✧ summary ➼ After you find yourself plagued with misfortune due to struggles in your personal and family life, you find yourself needing to move last minute. As a junior in undergrad with little money and little social support, you considered yourself lucky when you found a sublease that was close to campus and was relatively cheap. Unfortunately, it seemed that your roommate did not seem to be so excited regarding your presence. ✧ content/warnings ➼ fluff, slowburn, enemies to lovers (sorta), strangers to lovers, fem!reader, eventual smut, ex was originally porco but i accidentally made him too much of a dick so i replaced his name with zack, no it is not a reference to zeke i'd rather puke, only adding tags/content warnings that are applicable to each chapter so people can skip around if need be!, will continue to add as more stuff comes up ✧ word count ➼ ~3.9k
College was difficult enough without having to worry about money, housing, and relationship issues. Unfortunately, you were not one of the few lucky students that could just get through those four years in isolation. In addition to worrying about school, you also had to deal with a last minute housing change after some recent bullshit regarding your now ex-boyfriend. Your dynamic had gotten to the point that you couldn’t afford to wait for another two months as leases began expiring and apartments would open up for prospective renters again. You’d rather live on the streets when compared to having to live with him for another day.
Given the fact that it was June and your only remaining family was out of the country, you were left with no choice but to desperately try to find a sublease that wasn’t ridiculously expensive. That, plus the fact that you didn’t have a car and would be forced to live near campus, meant that you were ready to rip your hair out by the time that you finally found a sublease.
You knew it was due to nothing other than pure luck when you found an apartment complex that was a ten-minute walk to campus, close to a bus stop, relatively cheap, and had a tenant that moved out the week prior.
Unfortunately, your luck ran out when you found that you'd have to take a 2-hour bus ride from your ex-boyfriend's house to your new apartment. It wasn't that far from the two destinations, but the bus routes looped around the town multiple times, making your commute much longer than if you had gone by car.
As a result, you found yourself leaning your head back against the glass window at the rear end of the bus.
This really is Zack's last "fuck you" to me, isn't it?
You anxiously tapped your foot against the floor as you pulled out your phone for the millionth time. The previous tenant that set up the sublease had given you the contact information for your new roommate to set up the exchange of keys along with getting everything set up regarding who's paying for what utilities and how rent would be split. You already knew this was going to be a pain in the ass to handle. What you weren't prepared for was the lack of a hasty response when you sent a text to the number that Miche had given you.
> [you (12:35pm)]: hey, miche said you'd be free this afternoon so i can get your keys? does 3:00 work
You had sent that text message to your mysterious roommate roughly an hour ago when you had boarded your first bus back towards campus. You were now about half-way through your trip and had boarded your third bus, which was finally your last one before getting dropped off roughly a block away from your new apartment.
You shot a frown towards your phone. Your roommate had still not answered. Frustrated, you began typing again, in case the urgency in your first text was missed.
> [you (1:45pm)]: im on the bus ride over. i don't have a car, so would we be able to handle this so i'm not stranded outside?
By the time you arrived, your roommate had still not answered. You had spent the entire two-hour ride anxiously bouncing your leg up and down, checking your phone every 5-10 minutes to see if you would ever get an answer.
You didn't.
When the bus driver finally announced your stop, you found yourself more anxious than you were relieved at finishing your annoyingly long bus ride. You stepped off the bus in a dejected manner, with your right hand holding onto your phone and your left hand holding onto your backpack strap that was a bit too tight on your shoulders. Your back ached from lugging it around all day. It was packed with the basic necessities that you would need to survive the week, with your ex-boyfriend, Zack, promising to drop off the rest of your stuff next week—although you knew that translated to "shit he didn't want". That's just how your dynamic was.
You unlocked your phone and typed in the address for your new apartment complex again, navigating your way through the fairly empty streets. It was a residential area and given the fact that it was near a college campus—and therefore primarily made up of university students—and it was in the middle of June, most of the tenants had gone home for the summer.
The new apartment complex wasn't bad. It certainly couldn't compare to a house, but it had an indoor lobby with mailboxes on one side and a recreation room on the other with some vending machines, and even a small kitchenette.
No wonder the rent was so expensive.
You stepped inside, a relieved exhale escaping your lips as you felt the cool air from the air conditioning unit wash over you. Although you were definitely still irritated, seeing the lobby and escaping the heat brought up your mood slightly.
Your resolve renewed, you began to climb up the stairs, trying to figure out the best way to greet your new roommate without being overly frustrated.
Maybe their phone was off. Maybe they took a nap and couldn't see the texts. Maybe you got the wrong number from Miche.
You thought of all the reasons as to why they wouldn't respond. You shook your head, knowing that you should just brush it under the rug. As long as your roommate was home to let you in and give you your keys, there shouldn't be any more issues—for now.
"Unit 217," you mumbled to yourself as you walked down the hallway, looking up at the door numbers.
Once you appeared in front of Unit 217, you frowned, noticing that the lights inside were off. That wasn't good news.
Maybe there's enough lighting from the windows that they don't need lights.
You gently knocked on the door.
There wasn't a sound—no movement, no noise, no talking, nothing.
You knocked again a bit harder.
Nothing.
You knocked again.
They're not home. Of course they're not home. What a wonderful start to this already shitty situation.
You rested your forehead against the door, tempted to smash your head against it out of frustration. Your eyes finally shot open when you heard a door open. You glanced over to the side and saw a tall blonde man with a beard and glasses walk out.
"Locked out?" he asked as you made eye contact.
"You could say that," you mumbled with a frown. "You wouldn't happen to know of anywhere within walking distance that has wi-fi?"
If you couldn't get ahold of your roommate, you might as well get some writing done until you can return later in the evening when your roommate has to be home.
"There's a café roughly a block down, if you were wanting to hang out there, although I'm not sure when Ackermann will be home. His schedule's been all over the place recently."
"Hmm," you muttered, indicating the lack of interest in learning about your roommate's backstory, although you now at least had a name.
Ackermann, huh? What a pretentious sounding last name.
~~~~~
These damn undergrads...
Levi Ackermann currently stood behind the doorway that led from the breakroom and into the main seating area of the small, local café that he currently held a part-time position as a barista at.
He wasn't supposed to be here. He had purposefully given himself the week off so he could catch up on some lab work, yet he still found himself here. One of the new hires—a sophomore named Marlo—called out roughly 20 minutes ago when Levi was headed home from his immunology lab after spending the entire morning chatting with his mentor about whether he'd be able to graduate with his PhD on time.
To make things worse, since he was new, Marlo's shift meant that Levi was stuck working at the registers to take orders, which he easily considered the worst part of the job. If his shift just consisted of making the specialty brews that came his way, he'd be significantly less grumpy. That way, he could just tuck away in his corner and do the one aspect of the job that he enjoyed—making tea—instead of having to deal with the irritation that came with dealing with the undergrads that frequently visited.
"For fuck's sake," he whispered underneath his breath as he shut the door to his locker, ignoring his phone that kept on lighting up. He had it on silent for everyone except for the two people that mattered in his life—Farlan and Isabel—and they wouldn't contact him unless it was an emergency.
The fact that coming into this shift was one of the smaller annoyances in Levi's life simply poured more salt onto his wound. He wasn't even supposed to be working this much since it took away from his school time to do his research, but the graduate program's financial aid office fucked up his stipend and he was left to fend for himself. It was only for this month, so it didn't matter in the grand scheme of things, but then his housing situation got all fucked up.
He had been living with Miche for roughly a year and they had a decent partnership as roommates, until Miche left to live closer to the city after freshly finishing a Master's program. Miche had moved out about two weeks ago, telling him that his new roommate would be reaching out soon. Levi's stipend situation couldn't come at a worse time, as Miche moving out meant he had to cover this month's rent on his own unless his new roommate magically showed up within the next day and was willing to cover rent when they hadn't even really started living there yet.
After shooting a death glare at the front register for a few more minutes, he finally decided to step up to the counter, hoping that it was at least a slow day so he could get home and pretend the grievances in his life weren't as bothersome for a few hours.
His shift had just started, so he was more than a little annoyed when he already heard the door open. The semester had just ended, which roughly translated to all the undergrads leaving for summer break. Other than the few stragglers and the unfortunate PhD students that were forced to work through the summer, everyone should have gone home. He glanced up as he saw someone walk inside.
An immediate frown appeared on his face. He could immediately tell that they were an undergraduate student, and likely an oblivious one at that.
Levi watched as you stumbled in through the door, dragging in a backpack that was slightly too large and overpacked. You looked like you had been running around with no sense of direction or purpose. You were all disheveled, as shown by how chaotic your hair looked and through how much you struggled stepping away from the door frame and towards the coffee bar.
He felt his eyes begin to roll before seeing you approach him.
Taking over Marlo's shift means I'm working the registers and have to talk with the undergrads. What a pain in the ass.
He stared at you with a neutral expression on his face as you plopped down at the coffee bar in front of him.
"Can I get you something?" he finally said, in a tone that indicated that customer service was not one of his skills in this profession.
You looked past him at the menu that was hung up behind him. Although you had passed this café a bunch whenever you found the time to travel off-campus and explore the town that surrounded the outskirts of Paradis University, this was the first time you actually found yourself in Chosahei Café. You squinted at the menu, furrowing your eyebrows in confusion at some of the options.
"Why are the specialty coffee drinks unavailable?"
"Ah?" mumbled Levi before turning around to glance at where you were looking. "The barista that specializes in those stepped out. I can get you one of the standard ones or I can get you one of the specialty teas."
You blinked at him for a few seconds as if you were struggling to process what he was saying.
"You're a barista and you can't make coffee?"
"Tch," he muttered, already beyond irritated as he frowned at you. He knew that he was likely biased against your presence and simply lumped you in with the rest of the undergrads that constantly drove him up the wall with their obsession with cheap iced lattes that he couldn't be bothered to care about making. "Did you not hear what I just said? I can get you a standard one or—if you were really wanting one of the house specialty drinks—one of the teas."
"You must get top remarks for your customer service skills," you said with a monotonous tone.
Levi placed his hands on the counter, leaning against it as he stared at you.
"This isn't some retail café like Starbucks—which is down the street, by the way," he said, pointing towards the door as a gesture to indicate that you could leave if you weren't satisfied. "The house drinks were all created by the employees and the barista that made the specialty coffees stepped out. Now are you going to order or not? I have other customers to attend to."
His eyes raised off of you and towards the back of the café, where a line of about 3-4 people gathered as they impatiently waited for you to order.
"Hmph," you said, letting out an irritated exhale. "Get me a matcha."
Levi raised an eyebrow at you.
"Out of all the specialty ones here, you go with something as basic as that?"
You were beyond confused over why this random barista in a small, local café was giving you this much grief.
"Oh what the hell? Just get me the damned matcha, you asshole," you snapped at him as you tossed your card towards him.
He quickly grabbed your card and put in the order with an unamused look on his face.
You kept your gaze on him as he begrudgingly prepared your drink. After about a minute, you glanced towards the door that opened as a tall gentleman that also wore the barista apron stepped inside. He was average height, but seemed much taller, likely due to the fact that the barista in front of you that decided to chastise you for ordering a matcha barely rose above you in terms of height—and you were not a tall person.
The new barista went behind the counter and started taking the other customers that had gathered behind you, removing the "unavailable" sign that covered up the specialty coffees. You frowned as he smoothly chatted with the customers, with your expression quickly turning into a scowl as you saw him remove the sign.
"I'm guessing he's the barista that actually knows how to make coffee?" you said, shooting another unamused look towards Levi as he walked back with your cup of matcha.
You heard a quiet grunt from the grumpy barista you had the misfortune of being served by and you sighed as you picked up the cup and took a sip of the matcha that he reluctantly made you.
You paused, a little taken aback by the taste.
It was pretty damn good—much better than any you've ever gotten at Starbucks, anyhow.
"Onyankopon brought over some specialty recipes that he apparently grew up making over at Marley," Levi grumbled to you. "That is why I couldn't make the specialty coffees."
After he said that, he subtly scowled at himself. Why he was even explaining himself to you was beyond him. You were just some random undergrad that stopped by and said annoying undergrad things. He had literally no reason to explain himself or justify his actions.
"So what brought you in? You're undergrad, right?" Levi asked, prompting you to look up at him. "Didn't classes just end? Most of you are back at your parents by now."
You sighed and pursed your lips, with a dark look entering your eyes. Levi was able to tell that you were biting your tongue on some information that was relevant, but that you didn't feel like divulging.
"Yes," you finally said. "I had some shit come up and had to move last minute, so I'm stuck on campus for now."
You took another sip of your matcha as a frown grew on your face.
"But at this point, I'm pretty sure it was a fucking mistake."
"Oh?" Levi asked, raising an eyebrow at you.
"I had to take a two-hour bus ride here since my asshole of an ex just happened to be busy on the day I need his car, but as luck would have it, my roommate also happens to be out, so I can't even get my damn keys from them, hence why I'm here getting chastised by you because I ordered a damned matcha instead of being in my new apartment and getting settled in."
You looked up at Levi upon hearing his silence.
"How unfortunate," he finally responded in an uninterested tone.
You rolled your eyes at his response.
"God, talking to you is a pain in the ass," you spat before quickly finishing the rest of the matcha and throwing a spare dollar onto the counter as a tip before getting up.
You paused before walking away, turning slightly towards the grumpy barista.
"You should probably consider the fact that people don't order your teas because they don't want to order from you."
"Ah?" Levi muttered as he took the dollar off the counter.
"People generally don't like interacting with someone that acts like a dick right off the bat."
~~~~~
Levi frowned to himself as he kicked off his shoes upon walking in the front door, placing them neatly upside down on the shoe rack next to the door. He sighed as he flipped on the light switch to his empty apartment. He didn't particularly mind living on his own, but Miche was a good roommate and he'd be lying if he said he wasn't at least a little on edge over who his new roommate was going to be.
He walked over to his bedroom, pushing the door open as he lifted his barista apron over his head to put away for the night. Seeing the apron reminded him of the café, and in particular, the conversation he had with a certain undergraduate student that he was forced to serve and insulted him right before they left.
Tch, he thought as he recalled the comment you made.
I'm not a dick. What the fuck.
He shut his closet after he put the apron away, his mood soured by the recollection of your conversation, although he wasn't in a great mood to begin with in the first place. He looked at the clock on his nightstand and saw that he had a few hours before he was supposed to "go to bed". Being a notorious insomniac, "going to bed" basically meant laying down and staring at the ceiling for a few hours. He rarely ever got to actually sleep, but the few minutes he can occasionally catch were enough to keep him going.
He walked over to his desk, turning the switch on his small desk lamp and pulling out a folder from his backpack that was hung up against the side of his desk. He pulled out a stack of paper and neatly placed them at the center of his desk. He took a seat in his chair and flipped through the packets, frowning at the sheer number he had yet to go through. His original plan for the day was to get home and read through some of these papers that Erwin had assigned him to read before he went back to lab on Monday—it was currently a Friday. He knew Erwin had high expectations for him. Erwin would even occasionally say that Levi was the best student he's ever had, which made Levi immediately want to shrivel up in discomfort.
He glanced up from the papers in his hand. His room was "empty". Miche had commonly made fun of him and said that Levi always made his space look like no one actually lived there. The top of his desk was always empty, his bed was always made, and not a single article of clothing was in plain sight. Levi Ackermann was just that type of person. It heavily contributed to why he was so on edge over who his new roommate would be and if they would even be compatible in terms of living style.
He turned on his phone to check the time, having ignored it for the entire latter half of the day.
7:30pm. That meant he had time to get at least a few papers reviewed.
He frowned as he looked through his notifications and saw an unknown number appear. The texts were from this afternoon, so he knew it was long past an appropriate time to respond.
> [unknown number (12:35pm)]: hey, miche said you'd be free this afternoon so i can get your keys? does 3:00 work > [unknown number (1:45pm)]: im on the bus ride over. i don't have a car, so would we be able to handle this so i'm not stranded outside?
He sighed as he locked his phone and placed it onto his desk. It was just his luck that he went into a last-minute shift right as his new roommate contacted him. He knew that this new roommate was going to be irate with him since it's been around 6 hours since they sent that text. This just added more things onto Levi's plate that he really didn't need right now.
Before he could move to pick up his phone to shoot a reply at this unknown number, he heard not-so-gentle knocking on the door. Knowing that this was likely his new roommate that he had unintentionally ignored all day, he internally groaned to himself before forcing himself out of his chair.
He heard another knock as he made his way from his bedroom to the front door, bracing himself as he unlocked the door and pulled it open.
A frown appeared on his face as he looked at the person in front of him in confusion.
"What the hell?" he muttered as he saw an equally confused expression appear on your face.
That annoying undergrad from this afternoon?
"Did you follow me home?"
You raised an eyebrow at him. The last person you had expected to be greeted with was the grumpy barista that you had the misfortune of interacting with earlier in the day.
"Did you?" you retorted.
Levi scoffed.
"How the hell would I have followed you home if I was here first?"
He cursed to himself as he recalled the monologue you gave him earlier on in the day.
You had said that you had to suffer on a bus ride and couldn't get in contact with your new roommate to get keys to the unit. Now that you were standing in front of the door to his apartment, his frown only grew.
Your eyes widened as you finally put together the pieces.
"Wait," you asked, shaking your head slightly. "Are you-?"
"I guess so," Levi responded with an unamused sigh.
"Fuck."

you're mine noona - pt 1 - cha eunwoo x reader - day 13 [smut]
Warning: smut (18+ only)
--------
You had killed his mother. That's what everybody thought, at least, including Cha Eunwoo.
His dark eyes bored into your own as he strode down the long hallway in your father's mansion. You couldn't help but feel the electricity between you two that was always firing, but it felt especially inappropriate on the day of your step mother's funeral.
All you did was walk in on her stashing cash in her big Louis Vuitton purse from your father's desk last weekend, and she had a heart attack then and there. But she had cursed you out as you tried to tell the ambulance crew, your father, and Eunwoo what was happening, and the rest was history. Your father had married this woman just last year, yet somehow he believed her over you every single time.
Your breath then hitched as you could feel the other mourners' judgemental stares land on you. You turned abruptly, and reached for the door closest to you. It turned out to be the laundry room.
You breathed out and in while resting your forearms against the cold glass of the lastest washing machine. The gentle rhythm of the wash the housekeeper had put on soothed you. Your too-tight black dress felt tight, especially in the chest area. You could feel a sense of panic starting to rise in you.
The door opened behind you with a snick, and you felt a large presence at your back.
'What are you doing here, Noona?' His words were innocent enough, but his voice held barely controlled anger.
Before you could turn around, his arms grabbed you around your torso. One big hand splayed out over your slightly rounded abdomen, while the other held your shoulder in a loose grip.
'Eunwoo, we can’t do this again! Not here, not now,' you whisper-yelled as best as you could.
Suddenly, you were airborne, pantyless, and sitting on the rocking washing machine. Eunwoo's gaze never left yours, and you were mesmerized as he pulled down the front of your dress and pulled out both breasts.
'Youre breathing hard, Noona. Looks like you're ready for a ride.' Eunwoo's rough voice held dark promise.
'I'm not-' You lost my train of though as Eunwoo bit your earlobe and massaged your breast. ''I, I'm not your noona.' You breathed out. One of your hands that was initially halfheartedly pushing him away was now somehow caressing his shoulder.
Your words and gentle touch for whatever reason calmed him down. 'Noona, I'm going to enter you now, okay?'
Your eyes met his, and the decision was made. 'Okay,' you breathed out.
You closed your eyes, expecting him to continue with breakneck speed. But now all you felt was the rocking of that damned washing machine you were sitting on.
Only when you opened your eyes, did you see Cha Eunwoo was now at an arm's length away. 'Oh Noona, looks like we have a lot of room to play.' He drawled, then with a withering smirk, turned on his heel and walked away.
You looked down at your half naked self, and for the first time, felt a deep sense of anger. You won't let them keep pushing you around, you vowed to yourself.
-----
Pt 2: https://www.tumblr.com/blowingcookies/747331518085693440/youre-mine-noona-pt-2-cha-eunwoo-x-reader?source=share
-----
I accomplished the following today!:
✔️ 2.5 questions done (out of 120 to do, total); >5 emails so I could get my PSG done
✔️stuck to my diet, did a long walk, cleaned and organised my room
If I get 30 questions done tomorrow, write an email for my accomodation, and am able to organise my desk, I'll write a pt 2 😁
Thanks for reading and being part of my motivation!!!

Dev Blog 7/1/23
Hello my reader!
I'm here with a mini development blog for you all. So far I have added to the base game something like 40k more words. This is not including coding. I have also cleaned up some code errors that wouldn't let you get past the Deep, and negated a conversation with Hazel in the last chapter.
All I have left now is a clean up of some minor name codes and the editing of all the NSFW scenes. Then I can have a few people beta it and I can redo the UI of the game.
I would also like to say that the asexual route within the game is going to change a bit. The more I have learned about asexuality, the more it has come to my attention that there are a vast amount of ways that this can be represented. So, I have decided to address this by allowing an option to have a conversation about this with your RO before any NSFW scene. It can be that the MC doesn't like sex at all to the MC not opposed to it when it feels right. I know this is going to not satisfy some people but this is kind of what I feel comfortable writing. I feel like, at this point in my writing career, I just don't know how to approach it in the variation that asexuality actually is. That might change as I continue writing but for now, that's how I would like to keep it.
That being said, the sexuality code in general has also changed. You no longer have a code saying you are attracted to just men or just women. You can flirt with whoever you want without consequence. You can also deny anyone you want without consequence. Instead, I will just be coding in when you choose which RO you wish to explore the Night Market with. Polys will of course come after all of that. I felt this was also a fair representation. If you are someone who does not want to flirt with a certain gender, then don't chose the flirt options for it. It will then not open any of the flirtation scenes. Or, you know, tell Milo and Bella to just back off. :)
Now onto some personal stuff.
I am stressed. I mean, like really stressed. I thought I would have everything done by today and I am not done. Mainly, I feel bad for my Kickstarter backers. I have so much I owe them and everything is only in about the 70% done area. I am so sorry guys. I have been beating myself up over this for a while now when it became clear that this was far more work than I thought. It's crazy to me. I'm absent from Tumblr and Discord at this point and yet I have been busier with work than I've ever been.
I'm also terrified I'm just not doing enough to the base game. Things that I thought would fit great, ended up not fitting at all. Things that I thought would be an easy addition turned out to be way out of the realm of my capability. It's just all been a learning experience where I've felt like I'm letting you guys down.
And at the end of the day? I really just want to write Book 2.
I know I owe no one an explanation. I've just had this weird feeling I've had to battle the last few months where I am feeling like I have to choose between my family life and my work life. And I hate it. My husband took two weeks off work just so I could work like crazy and I am still not done which is bothering me. Which means weekends are sometimes spent not with my kids but instead working away again. And, because we are a split family, it isn't always like I can make up for this time mid week.
I'm not really looking for advice on this. I'm just kind of trying to be transparent. The stress is for sure getting to me and believe me, I am looking forward to this going up on Steam more than anyone at this point. And then I'm sure I'll spiral because I'll be certain somehow barely anyone will buy it. LOL! But hey, at least I just got two more cats to add to my life. They can purr away my stress that night.
That's everything guys. Thank you for being who you are and I promise you, I am taking care o myself. I'm just a stressed person by nature, I think.
I hope everyone else is having a good summer and you all are getting some wonderful reading time in. If you celebrate the 4th, here's to hoping you have lots of good food that day!
With love,
Zinnia

I also got stalked a couple years ago for similar reasons (coworker/classmate misinterpreted friendliness as romantic interest). I never really see anyone talk or write about it realistically, so thank you. I feel like no one really gets it unless they’ve experienced it firsthand. I’d love to see an extended ghost version if your requests are still open!
Ok I did my best on this one, but I'll tell you right off the bat I'm not sure how happy I am with it, so I apologize. Something I really tend to ramble in my stories and this is definitely one of those times. That being said the majority of this was written and edited while I was in the club last night. So that has to count for something. Nothing like the ambiance of pounding music and pressing bodies to really motivate me to write a fic about Ghost... maybe thats an idea. Ghost in the club... well see.
Without further ado...
The Letter
Ghost X Reader
7,443 words
Cw: stalking, bodily injury, fighting
Summary: You get a letter from someone you had hoped to never hear from again.
~thank you for reading~
You had been dating Ghost for nearly 2 years. A gentle and doting boyfriend, if not fairly reserved. You and he spent almost everyday he was home together. That Saturday was not different.
He had gone out earlier that day to pick up some muffins from the bakery down the street, while you stayed in and made coffee and tea. This was your normal weekend routine. The local bakery was closed on Sundays so Ghost would buy all of your baked goods for the week, bringing them home to you.
You heard the key jiggle in the lock and his heavy boots hitting the tile of your foyer as he peeled them off before coming inside. You had never really asked him to do that, but it was the type of boyfriend he was. Always diligent, always thoughtful.
He stepped into the kitchen, humming softly to himself and putting a brown paper bag and some mail on the kitchen counter. Walking up behind you, he wrapped his arms around you and buried his face in your neck. "G'morning."
You turned around in his embrace and gave him a quick peck, "morning Simon. Tea is ready." You gestured to his cup of tea, quickly cooing on the counter. After years of practice, you had managed to get the timing just right, so the tea was the perfect temperature when he got home. Although, even if it was too cold he never complained.
"Thanks Love," he unraveled himself from you, walking over and taking a sip from the cup. "Perfect as always. You got some mail by the way, I just went ahead and brought it up for you."
You smiled at him, "Thank you honey." You poured yourself a cup and turned your attention to the mail on the table while it cooled. "Do you mind grabbing a plate for the muffins?" You asked pawing through the pile of paper.
"Sure thing." He replied, clamoring in the cabinet behind you as your eyes landed on a letter.
It didn't have any address, return or otherwise. It had been dropped directly into your flat's mailbox. With only your first name in chicken scratch on the front. Other than that it was fairly normal, a white evalope that seemed to lightly bend at the middle, containing something thick and heavy. "...Simon?"
He appeared behind you at your worried tone, plate still in hand. "What is it?"
You held up the letter. "What is this?"
He set the plate down next to you gently, grabbing the letter from your hands. "I have no clue. Maybe the landlord left it?" He pulled out a pen knife and sliced open the top. Being careful to hold it far away from himself. When there was no sign of danger he pulled out the contents. A thick stack of small square photos tied together with a rubber band.
He moved the muffins and the rest of the mail to the other side of the table, spreading the photos out like a story board. They were all of you over the last couple of weeks. Walking to the bus, grabbing the mail, taking your lunch break outside of work.
You picked one up gently, it had a word on the back, 'think.' You began turning over every photo. Each one had a different word on the back. Your breath quickened. They were all out of order but it was clearly a message. The blood pounded in your ears. You could tell Ghost was speaking, but you couldn't hear a word he said.
Instead you opted to organize the photos by date. And as you did a message began to form.
'Did you think that you could get away from me that easily? You're mine. I found you.'
You slid down to the floor of the kitchen, back flat against the lower cabinets. Beginning to hyperventilate, you press your palms into your eyes as your ears ring.
Ghost settles down beside you. Waiting for this wave of panic to end. He doesn't touch you, or speak. He just waits.
When you lift your head he is looking down at you. Searching your tear stained face. "Let's get you in the shower, huh? I think some warm water will make you feel better." You let him lead you into the bathroom. He sits you on the toilet seat while he sets the water to the right temperature. Helping you strip and climb into the tub, he keeps his touches light and gentle. "I'll be back in a little bit." He leaves and closes the door behind him.
You stand in the shower numbly until he comes back with a towel. Wrapping you up and holding you wedding style. Tossing you onto the bed and laying next to you. He lays your head on his chest as you are lulled by the sound of his breathing.
"What was that? Who sent those?" He speaks to you softly. Rubbing your back is slow circular motions.
"I-" you pause searching for the words. "Back in my home town I worked for a bookstore." He stays silent as you speak slowly, almost painfully. "There was another person who worked there. Um, they asked me out a few times, but I was too busy with school at the time to date... They used to follow me home from school and work. I called the cops a couple times but they just said it was puppy love."
Simon let's out a soft hum of acknowledgement. His hand has stopped rubbing your back, it is now settled between your shoulder blade. The other gripping your hand.
You let out a shaky breath. "Um. During the summer of my senior year he hid under my bed after I left the window open. Luckily a neighbor saw him climb into my window and called the cops. He was never convicted though... he convinced everyone it was a lovers spat..." You stopped talking. There wasn't much more to say.
"And he's the one who sent these photos to you?" Simon asked.
"I-I think so, I mean I don't know for sure. But I can't think of anyone else it could be. But maybe you're right maybe I'm just-"
He cut you off, "if you think it's him I beleive you." He eased you off his chest, sitting up and grabbing his phone. "Im going to make a few phone calls, you just rest."
You nod as he stands up and exits the bedroom. Closing he door quietly behind him and turning off the lights. As you lay there, listening to the soft drone of his voice in the other room you slowly drift out of consciousness.
You wake up close to noon to the sound of voices in the living room. You pull yourself out of bed. Darting into the bathroom to adjust your hair and clothes in the mirror. Your eyes stare tiredly back at you.
Gaz and Ghost are sitting on the couch, talking in hushed voices. Which go completely quiet when you come into the room. You notice that the photos have been tucked away and the mess from breakfast cleaned up save for 1 muffin on a plate.
Ghost stands and walks over to embrace you. "How did you sleep? I left a muffin out in case your hungry. I can make you some tea you'd like." You just nod, sitting on one of the stools by the kitchen counter.
He set about making your cup, adding a generous amount of sugar. "Gaz was just bringing over some papers. He offered to make a couple of runs to the store so I can stay home with you."
You spin around and look at Gaz, who is still on the couch. "Thank you Gaz."
He smiles at you, "no problem, I never mind Ghost owing me a favor anyways." He sends you a cheeky wink. "Plus I was nearby." His eyes bore into you, asking a questions.
You glance over your shoulder at Ghost. "Ghost didn't tell you what was going on, did he?"
"Naw, said he's been avoiding my questions." He slumps down, crossing his arms and putting a pouting look on his face. Upon seeing your look of distress he let's it go. "Don't worry about it, you don't have to tell me anything.
"I- uh, I got some concerning mail today. Really freaked me out." Gaz now has a look of concern on his face.
"Hey we're always a call away, ok? Any friend of Ghost is a friend of the 141." He stands up and walks over to you. And give your shoulder a quick squeeze.
Ghost sets a cup of tea behind you with a light clink. You can smell is aroma, peaking your appetite. He walks around the edge of the counter, leaning against it lightly.
Gaz looks up at whatever expression is on Ghosts' face and decides to politely excuse himself. Ghost walks him out. Locking the door behind him and settling back onto the couch.
"How are you feeling, love?" He has the slightest sound of worry in his voice. To anyone else, he may seem unbothered. But you know better.
"I'm fine." You sip your tea relishing its warmth. You can feel the presence of the envelope on the table behind you. Almost boring into the back of your head.
"I called your work. I let them know you wouldn't be in on Monday." You open your mouth to respond but he keeps talking. "I didn't tell them exactely what was up but I did send them a photo of your stalker. Told them not to let him in or around the building. Apparently he's been coming in and asking after you. They just figured it was a regular with a crush. Luckily your coworkers are a smart bunch and no one told him anything."
"How did you get a photo?" You were beginning to feel a little overwhelmed. Unsure how to react to this new information.
"Internet. I called your parent up and they told me his name. Just went to Facebook after that." He's kept his eyes on you this whole time. Continuously searching your face for signs of emotion. "Let's sleep at my place tonight huh?"
You stare at him. Thinking of the bachelor pad he calls home. It's a large house, with nothing but a mattress on the floor, some towels, a dresser, and one singular cooking pot. "I think we'll be more comfortable here, no?"
He chuckles lightly at the look of annoyance on your face. "Just trust me. Pack up a bag, a change of scenery will do you good."
You do trust him, so you finish your muffin, grab a duffel and start packing. Clothes, toiletries, and a book. It takes you nearly an hour to track down everything you need. During that time Ghost takes another call from Gaz and steps outside for a moment.
You feel uneasy with him not around. Despite that, packing is a great distraction for your weary mind. Tracking down a spare charger, sifting through your pile of unread books. It's therapeutic.
Ghost steps back in and you hear the lock turn loudly behind him. Had the lock always been that loud or was he making a show of it for you?
You step into the living room with your bulging duffel. "You got everything?" Ghost grabs the bag from you. Holding out his other hand for you to grab.
"Yeah I think so." You take one last look around before taking his hand. "Do you?"
He grunts thinking for a moment. "Keys, mask, wallet, phone... I am missing one thing." He drops the duffel and pulls you into a gentle, lingering kiss.
You laugh lightly and he bends to retrieve the bag. "With that out of the way I think we're good." Both of you descend the steps to the first floor, walking by those cursed mailboxes. You eye them suspiciously but Ghost just continues dragging you to the car.
He opens the passenger door to his Jeep Wrangler, helping you with the step. Then he circles to the driver's side, pulling himself up and in. You turn to him as he starts the car. "You know, I've never understood why you drive when you only live a couple blocks away." He stops, car idle, and looks at you.
"I suppose it's in case your turn out to be crazy and I have to run away." You can hear the smile in his voice.
"Im pretty sure you could outrun me."
"Not when you're angry I can't. You're scarier than you give yourself credit for." He leans forward and kisses you through the fabric of his mask. "But if you're serious, it's because I have to be prepared for Price to call anytime. I don't want to run four blocks to get home, and then drive to my destination. Seems unnecessarily complicated."
You couldn't argue with that. His job was very important, and time was of the essence if the captain was calling him. "Well I'm glad you have it today, I'm not very keen on walking all the way to your place today. Don't want that creep getting the chance to take any more photos for his collection." Ghost hums in response. Backing out of the parking spot and into traffic with one fluid motion.
Soon you arrive at his home. A semi-detached brick building, which he bought 5 years ago and has made minimal change to since. It sports a small backyard and a 2 story style with a bedroom and a home office on the top floor. It's a nice place, despite the spare furnishings.
He opens the door for you. Inviting you into the house. The first thing you notice is the smell. The soft scent of something sweet, like fruit and cinnamon. Did someone light a candle? It couldn't have been Ghost, he was with you all day. And he would never make a mistake like leaving a candle lit while he was out.
You felt the panic rising again. Did your stalker already make it into the house? Was he waiting for you? You hesitated in the foyer. But Ghost was calm, unbothered by this, locking the front door behind him. You sat on the floor to take off your shoes. He did the same, leaning against the wall and lifting his foot to undo the laces on his boot.
You waited for him to step in first. He walked to the back sliding door, double checking the lock. Then he turned and walked out of your sight and into the kitchen. You quickly follow and find him pulling what appears to be a casserole out of the fridge. It's covered in foil and has a yellow sticky note on the top.
As Ghost busies himself with the oven you walk over to the dish. Picking up the small scrolled note. "Soap's famous shepards pie. 400° 30 min. Enjoy ;)." You giggle. Soap is a great friend, Ghost is a lucky man.
"That was sweet of Soap. Since when does he have a key to your place?" You wrap your arms around Ghost's waist.
"Gaz has my spare right now. Must've brought Johnny along with him while he was setting up the cameras and the light system." He shrugs, struggling with the small buttons on the oven.
You brush his hands away, inputting the settings. Ghost may be a behemoth in the war zone, but he could be a damn clutz at home. It was something you adored about him. He really turned into a big oaf when he was relaxed. "Cameras? Lights? What are we doing, filming a movie?" You chuckle to yourself.
"They're trail cameras. Gaz hid 'em up in the trees out back and under some rocks in the front. Should cover all the corners of the property. Couldn't put them in your place, pretty sure that violates your lease or something."
You hum lightly. "And the lights?"
"Those I'll have to show you." He unwraps your arm from his waist, walking over to the back door. He unlocks it and steps outside. Taking about 5 steps into the yard before some of the brightest LEDs you've ever seen illuminate his face. He throws up an arm to cover his eyes, before walking back into the house.
"Well those certainly are lights. Motion activated?" He nods, rubbing his eyes lightly. "Those must be scary things to stun my big army man." You wrap your arms around his waist again. Fully smiling for the first time since this morning. "Thank you."
He nods again, wrapping his arms around you as well. "You don't have to thank me. I love you, and I would do anything to keep you safe. You know that."
"I know." You lay your head against him and he lays his cheek on the top of your head. The two of you slowly start to sway to some unheard music. Until the oven goes off and you break the bond. Returning to the kitchen to stick the pie in.
"Im heading upstairs for a moment." Ghost yells from the bottom of the stairs. "Be back soon."
You lean against the counter, surveying the living room from your view. Finally getting the chance to register your surroundings. When had he gotten a couch? And a TV? And... candles. That must have been what you were smelling when you came in. Someone had set up the living room to look similar to yours. The color scheme was a bit darker, and the brands weren't the same. But the position of the furniture was identical.
You walked over, palm running across the back of the couch. It was brand new, some of the plastic still sticking up between the cushions. You smiled imagining Soap and Gaz hauling the furniture into the house, swearing all the way.
Ghosts footsteps descended the stairs again. "I have a couple different movies we could watch-" He rounded the corner and stopped. You had tears falling down your face. "Oh God what's wrong? Are you ok?"
You rush up and hug him. "Thank you Simon, you have no idea how much this means to me."
He wrapped his arms around you, squeezing. "Of course my love."
You cried until the oven alarm went off. Sometime in the interim you ended up on the couch, still wrapped in Ghosts' arms. He pried himself out of your embrace. "I think that my house burning down would not make this night better, love." He smiled down at you, leaning down and laying a kiss on your forehead.
He left for the kitchen returning with 2 heaping bowls of Soap's casserole. Sitting on the couch next to you he lays both of them on the coffee table in front of you. "Let's watch something eh?" He grabs the remote before you can respond. Flipping through the channels before settling on some sappy romcom.
Ghost would never admit this outloud, but he loved these sorts of movies. There was something so mindless about them. Their predictability was calming to him.
You tucked yourself into a more comfortable position. Picking one of the steaming bowls off the table. The pie was delicious, rich and savory. Soap was a really good cook, which always surprised you. Most of his recipes were meant to feed a crowd, so it wasn't unusual for you to get leftovers. Not that you minded, Ghost wasn't much of a cook, so sometimes the break was welcome.
After the two of you had finished off your meal Ghost collected the dishes and gave them a quick rinse while there were commercials on the TV. When they ended he quickly rushed back to sit next to you. Fully absorbed in some movie about a lawyer returning to her hometown in Connecticut and reuniting with her high school boyfriend.
Ghost leaned back into the cushions, looping one arm around your shoulders. After a few moments he began to run his fingers through your hair gently. You leaned into him, allowing him more access to your head. His big fingers parting your hair over and over again. Lulling you into sleep.
You swore your eyes only closed for a moment but when you woke up the movie was over and Ghost was turning off the TV. "Sorry did I wake you?" He asked softly, laying a kiss on your temple.
You made a soft "nuh-uh" noise, shaking your head softly. Your eyes were still adjusting to being awake so you blinked slowly and lazily. "I didn't mean to fall asleep." You stretched towards the ceiling, groaning with effort.
"Don't apologize, I'm glad you're getting some rest." He shuffles around, grabbing hold of the blanket you were now covered with. Pulling it off of you and folding it neatly before laying it on the table. He then walks back over to you, scooping you up just as he had earlier in the day.
"Hey, I'm awake, I can walk." You protest lightly.
He just grunts, carrying you up the stairs to the bedroom. He's undisturbed by your gaze as you inspect his, now unmasked, face. You love looking at him, but he's usually more comfortable when the mask is on. You cherish moments like these, because they're so rare.
When you get to the bedroom you peer over your shoulder and see A new bed frame, 2 side tables, and a second dresser greeting you. This room was remodeled as well. Although still sparse, this place was really starting to look like home. It made you smile.
"What are you smiling for, love?" Ghost lays you down on the bed gently. Covering you with the duvet.
"The new furniture, I like it."
He chuckles, eyes crinkling at the edges. "I'm glad you do, seems that Gaz and Soap have good taste after all. I was a bit worried about sending them out for all of this, but I have to say I'm impressed as well." He looks around for a moment. Taking everything in.
"When did they find the time?" It was only 5 or 6 hours between the time that you got the photos to the time that you arrived at Ghosts home.
Ghost stood up and began taking off his shirt, getting ready for bed. "I called the team while you were in the shower this morning. Price pulled a couple of strings with a local moving company while Gaz and Soap went to the furniture store. Got it delivered and installed while you slept." He climbed into bed next to you.
You hummed in acknowledgement. "I'm going to have to thank them."
"They'll love that." The blankets rustle as he shifts, turning to spoon you. One arm draped over your waist. "But let's do it in the morning."
"I love you."
"I love you too."
In the morning Ghost makes you some slightly overcooked eggs and waffles. Soap and Gaz must have bought him new cookware, since you knew he hadn't had a waffle iron 3 days ago when you had last been here. You'd have to thank them for that too.
The light streamed in through the window as you stared into the steaming drink in front of you. Still groggy, Ghost was always the early riser of the relationship. He hummed lightly in the kitchen.
He turned to you and opened his mouth to talk just as a knock sounded at the door. A confused look flashed over his eyes. He wiped his hands off on the frilly pink apron he wore.(Something you were sure Soap had bought as a joke) "Let me go get that, stay right here." He clicked the stove off, removing the pan from the heat.
You nod, eyes still glazed over, making dazed eye contact with the steam rising from your mug. The sound of the door unlatching and a second man's voice at the door rouses you slightly. The sound of pen on paper further perplexes you. Was Ghost... signing for something?
Your question was answered quickly when he walked into the living room, in his arms was a sealed cardboard box. "Wonder what this is?" He checked the label and shook his head. "I don't recognize the return address. Maybe it's something Gaz and Soap had shipped to us, it is a local address." He shook the box lightly and nodded to himself, finding the sound adequate for whatever test he was conducting.
Soon he was ripping the cardboard open, not bothering with a knife, opting for his hands instead. He was an impatient man sometimes, you had to hide birthday and Christmas gifts until the last minute, otherwise he'd beg to open them before the big day.
Inside the box was... another box. This one a wooden rectangle with 4 little feet. A jewelry box maybe, but not one that would have matched the light stain decor that Soap and Gaz had chosen. No, this one had a tinged red color, with uneven lacquer and sharp lines where the brush had deposited too much pigment. Obviously hand built.
"This yours?" Ghost held it up to you and you felt your breath hitch in your chest again as you shook your head. "Hmm," was all he said. He set the box down on the counter as you both contemplated it.
"I think we should open it."
He sighed, "I agree."
You reached over and slid the box to you, lifting its latch and slowly prying it open. The hinges squeaked as you did, making you wince. Inside was a velvet lining topped with a necklace. A golden locket on a long chain. Your hands shook as you removed it from the box.
You fumbled, trying to pop it open. Finally handing it to Ghost after a couple of moments of struggle. He easily unlocked it and peered at the photos before holding it out to you.
On the left was a small photo of you, smiling in a group graduation photo. On the right was a strange photo of your stalker. It almost looked as if he had one LED shining directly up at his face. Like he was about to tell you a spooky story around a campfire. The picture came out intimidating due to the shadows stretching certain parts of his face and shortening others. He looked like a psycho.
"What the fuck." By the time you had processed what was in the package Ghost was already out the front door, searching for the delivery man. He was long gone though and Ghost wasn't willing to chance chasing him down... well more so he wasn't willing to leave you alone in the house, for fear your stalker would circle back for you while he was gone.
He walked back in, defeated. "We've got to find this guy."
"You're telling me. How the fuck did they find this place, let alone have time to mail a package?" You sunk your chin into your palm. Hand cupping your cheek.
Ghost sat on the stool next to yours. "I have my ideas. I'm going to send the footage from those trail cams in the front yard over to Price, he may be able to get a face off of them."
"Do you think the delivery guy and my stalker are the same person?" You turned your face to him. His brows were scrunched with heavy thought.
He rubbed his chin lightly, "maybe, or maybe the delivery man saw something. Either way it can't hurt to pen through the footage. If he knows my address, maybe he's been here before."
"Within the last couple of weeks? Wouldn't that mean that he followed us from my place?" Your stalker had never had this attention to detail before. This new approach was worrying to say the least.
Ghost turned and made intense eye contact, "it's likely."
Fuck. Your brain started buzzing, "I'm so sorry, God I should never have agreed to come here. Now your home is in danger too..." The edges of your vision start to darken as panic sets in for the second time in 2 days. "I should have told you sooner. Then you never would have been put in this situation."
"Now that's nonsense and you know it. I can take care of myself. I wouldn't have put myself in this situation if I couldn't handle it." He reached a hand to cover yours. "We're safe here. The 141 is already working on finding this person. We'll have him in no time and then everything will be back to normal."
His words were comforting, but did little to actually ease the root of your stress. "And what then? Do we even have the evidence to convict them? What if the police think that I'm crazy and let him go? I- I'm scared of what might happen if he gets away again. If he gets a reason to retaliate." You stand up, pushing the stool out behind you.
"Hey-" He reaches a hand out to you, but you take a step back.
"I'm scared Simon," you're struggling to control the shake in your voice. Tears are welling up in your eyes. "What if he never quits? I don't want to be running forever."
He lowers his hand, a wave of concern washes over his eyes. "This won't be forever, you're never going to have to run again. 141 and I will make sure of it, don't you worry. We're not going to let anything happen to you ever again."
You want to be comforted like yesterday. But that was when you thought Ghost and a couple of stupid cameras would keep you safe. That a set of floodlights would scare off some psycho with a sick obsession. But you knew your stalker, and he would follow you to the ends of the earth. The only things that would stop him was jail, and death.
"I'm going to go," tears were falling now. "I need to get out of here. I don't know what I would do if something happened to you Simon."
Ghost knew it was a bad idea, he knew you weren't thinking straight. But he also knew that he couldn't stop you. You were an adult, and you needed to be able to make these decisions for yourself. It was bright outside and the chances of someone trying to take you in broad daylight was slim. "OK, just please take a coat. And stick to the main roads."
You obliged him, taking your jacket from its hook on the wall and slipping on your shoes. Mind numb as you followed his orders. You grabbed your keys and stepped outside.
Ghost made no attempt to follow you through the cold morning air. No matter how much he wanted to.
It helped clear your head to be outside. Allowing you to really think for the first time since yesterday. You didn't know exactly where you were going. Heading vaguely in the direction of your apartment until you saw the bakery. It was closed, as it was a Sunday, but the familiar sight of it comforted you. Something normal.
You took another step towards it when a dark fabric bag was thrown over your head. A voice spoke in your ear. "Hi baby, did you miss me?" You screamed. Elbowing your assailant in the gut. Hard.
"Get the fuck off me you freak." The fingers holding the bag loosened just enough to pry them off. You ripped the now unrestrained bag from your head. Facing your attacker.
He looked just as you remembered. Unchanged since you were in school. Albeit, dirtier and greasier, as if he hadn't showered in days.
"Aww babe don't be that way, I know you missed me too." He held out his arms as if to hug you, but you noticed a taser in his left hand. His thumb on the button ready to strike.
You turned and ran. Tearing around the block like a bat out of hell. Taking off in the direction of Ghost's home once more. Your stalker was close behind, shouting a mixture of insults and praises. Begging you to stop, that he wouldn't hurt you, that he loved you... It made you sick.
The house was in sight, all the shades had been opened since you left. Ghost was looking out the big front one and rushed outside when he saw you. Booking it down the road towards you.
When he reached you he stopped, letting you run past and hide behind him. "You ok?"
"Not really."
He huffed, you had answered him at least and there wasn't time to say anything else. The stalker was already upon the both of you.
"Stay away. This is between me and my girlfriend." He had pulled out a small knife and was waving it around erratically.
Ghost stuck an arm behind him, making sure you kept your position pressed against his back. "She not your girlfriend, so fuck off." His voice was authoritative and hard.
The assailant froze, a huge smile breaking across their face. He made eye contact with you over Ghosts shoulder. "Are you cheating on me? With this idiot? What can he give you that I can't, huh?" He stared at Ghost again now. Inspecting him like a piece of meat. "I didn't realize you were so shallow. I bet this guy doesn't even have a personality. Not like me."
He began pacing back and forth in front of the two of you. Hands pressed to his temples, knife still in hand. "You were always vain. Never saw the potential in a nice guy like me. You're just a common slut, huh? Just a whore." He continued to mumble to himself as Ghost reached into his back pocket slowly. Pulling out his cell phone and handing it to you surreptitiously.
You grabbed it, unlocked it, and sent a text off to Gaz. He was the closest. It just read 'SOS, Ghosts house.' The phone made a 'text sent' sound. Which broke your stalker out of whatever trance he had been in.
"What was that?" He stared at you, rage clouding his eyes. Your whole body shook with fear. "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?" He was coming at you now. Knife held out threateningly in front of him.
Ghost took a small step forward. "Drop the knife. I don't want to have to hurt you."
"Hurt me? You can't hurt me!" The creep laughed, continuing towards the two of you.
"Get inside. Lock the door." Ghost gives your arm a small squeeze and a push towards the house. "NOW."
You take off in a sprint for the front door, which is still open. There's a sound of a commotion behind you but you don't stop until the door is firmly locked.
You reposition yourself near the window. Pulling out Ghosts phone and dialing 999. While you watch the two people struggle. Ghost fights dirty, using his size and skill against the smaller person. But your old coworker has the power and drive of a desperate man. Biting and clawing Ghost like a rabid dog.
You watch in anxiety, letting out a fearful gasp as he slams his knife into Simon's shoulder. He throws his head back and lets out a crazed cackle. Ghost grips the hilt in surprise but quickly drops his hand, choosing to fight without the arm, versus risking bleeding out.
"Come on Gaz..." You find yourself saying. Biting your thumbnail to the quick.
As if summoned, Gazs' mother's little electric car tears around the corner. He pulls haphazardly off the road and jumps out. Running over to back up Ghost, laying a solid punch to the stalkersl's temple before he can even register his presence.
Somehow he stays upright, swaying only slightly. "Fuck," you say to yourself. Ghost's right arm hangs limply beside him, fingers dripping with blood. His brow is furrowed in pain.
Gaz takes the forefront, landing another solid punch, right to the nose this time. This sets the stalker off balance, leaving him open to an attack from Ghost. Who kicks his right knee in, making him hit the ground. Hard.
Both men descend on the prone assailant. Gaz pressing his body into his. While Ghosts slides a pair of handcuffs out of Gaz's back pocket. Using his good hand to close the cuffs over your stalker's wrists.
Gaz continues to hold the struggling
man down until the cops and ambulance come. They take away the cuffed psycho, while he spits and swears all the way.
The EMTs begin to examine a thoroughly uncooperative Ghost. You watch from the window as he bats at their hands and attempts to walk away from them, back towards the house.
You stomp outside, "Ghost!" You walk over to him and grab his good arm right above the elbow. "Will you stop struggling? And God, don't you ever do something like that again. I was so fucking scared."
He laughs, "well that will be a little hard, I do this for a living after all." You unwrap your fingers from his bicep and let the EMTs continuing prodding him. One forces him to stand up, and ushers him into the ambulance.
"Are you his partner?" The other EMT asks.
You look at him, pausing, "oh, um, yes."
"Would you like to ride with us?" The woman asks.
"Oh-" You look back at Gaz, who is still talking to the cops. He catches your eye and gives you a thumbs up. "Yes, yes please."
She leads you to the back of the ambulance as well. Where Ghost is now laid on a stretcher, looking incredibly put out. "Hey, how are you feeling?" You ask him softly. Grasping his hand in yours.
"Like shit, and these tubes attached to me aren't helping." He raises the arm opposite to you, which is now filled with a couple IVs. He looks exhausted, but happy. His eyes are focused entirely on you. Searching your face for reaction like he always does. "How are you?"
You squeeze his hand again. "Im ok, better once I saw that creep in cuffs." You smile tiredly at him.
The ride to the hospital is largely uneventful. Once you get there you are greeted by another pair of cops who begin to ask you and Ghost questions about the stalking and the fight. They are kind and listen closely to you.
Over the few days that Simon allows the hospital to keep him (at your incessant begging) the whole of the 141 come to visit him, and a couple of old colleagues. Ghost is surprisingly well loved despite the no nonsense, grumpy attitude he gives off with his coworkers. They bring his lots of gifts you have to cart home, since his arm is in a sling when he's released. Once you get back home he spends a few days lazing around before getting back to the office.
You return to work the Wednesday after the attack, allowing yourself two days to recoup and settle Ghost into the hospital. So while you are at work, Ghost is thinking. Mostly about the future.
You come home the Friday after the attack to a pile of folded boxes on your porch and the sound of Simon grunting inside. You open the door and hear, "God, get off me. STOP IT." You rush in, not bothering to take off your shoes.
"Ghost?!" You turn into the kitchen and find him lying on the ground. A full grown German Shepherd licking his face.
He sits up, cheeks streaked with wet slobber, blushing bright red. "I- um. I got a dog?" He goes to stand but is knocked back onto his ass when the dog jumps on him again.
"A dog?" You ask, cocking an eyebrow at the big man on the ground, who is once again being covered in sticky kisses. You had both contemplated a pet before. Agreeing that neither of you had the time to train one. Let alone cover the amount of walks, feedings, and care one might need between your jobs.
"Umm yeah," he said, suddenly sheepish. "Mrs. Harold next door said she'd watch him while we're out. And he's already trained. Plus I have a yard... I figured we could use a household guardian, you know?" He was blushing again.
You smiled at him. This was a big decision, but one you could trust him to make on his own. Plus the dog was already growing on you. "What's his name?" You got down on your knees, beckoning the dog over to you.
"Riley." The dog looked to Ghost, who nodded. At Ghost's permission he bounded to you, sniffing every part of your body with his cold wet nose. Inspecting you and finding you agreeable, he begins licking your face and hands. Coating you in the same gross substance that Ghost had begun to wash off in the sink.
"I worked with him when I was still a corporal. He just got retired, an injury to his hip. He was a sniffer dog, never saw an active battle, so he's still gentle." He walks over and pats Riley's head slowly. Running his thumb over the small grey spots around the dog's brow.
"You share a name."
"We do," Ghost smiles at you. "He's a good dog... i'm sorry I didn't ask you first."
You look up at him, mouth twitching slightly. "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little peeved... but-" Riley lays down and sets his head softly on your knee, sighing happily. "I can't say he hasn't grown on me already..."
You begin stroking the dog's head absentmindedly.
"He's a good dog."
"Yeah, he's a good dog."
You are completely content. Spending more and more time at Ghosts home over the next few weeks. Now that it's furnished you enjoy your time there. Your own small apartment is forgotten, except when you need a specific piece of clothing. It's not surprising to you when Ghost asks you to move in out of the blue one day.
You're having breakfast one morning when he looks up from his muffin. "When was the last time you went home?"
You look up at him, raising an eyebrow. "Why have I overstayed my welcome?"
"No, I was just wondering." He goes back to eating.
"Hmm..." You let it simmer for a moment before saying, "Because I can leave
"No! I- uh." He blushes. He'd been wearing his mask less often around the house, opting to keep the shades closed more instead. You were surprised at how much he blushed. "I was just thinking... maybe you could just... Move in?"
You made eye contact with him, surprised. Moving in was a big step. Sure you had been dating well over 2 years at this point. But he was away often, this was the first time he was home for more than one consecutive week since last Easter. Living apart always seemed easier with your different schedules.
He kept talking while you thought, "I was thinking that I could turn the office upstairs into a spare bedroom. I don't use the desk much anyways, and we have plenty of room downstairs for it. That way, if I get home late, I can just sleep in there and not wake you up." His fingers were tapping on the counter. A nervous tick he had picked up from Soap some months earlier.
You thought for a moment. Savoring another swig of tea. "Sure."
He stared at you in disbelief, "are you sure?"
You laughed, "i'm sure, I'm sure. I'd love to move in with you Simon Riley."
He beamed at this. By the next weekend you had sold most of your furniture. Finding people willing to haul the pieces down the stairs proved to be easy if the price was cheap enough, and you got to avoid hiring a moving truck. Everything else was boxed up and packed into the back of Ghost's Jeep with the help of Soap and Gaz.
It didn't take long for your house to feel like home. The threat of the stalker is largely forgotten. You got a couple updates over the upcoming months. He had plead not guilty, by reason of insanity. Being transferred to a 24/7 psychiatric care facility for the foreseeable future. At first this has disturbed you. But in the end you just decided that, as long as he was getting the care he needed. You didn't care. You were happy, and you wouldn't let this creep take that away from you ever again.

hard work pays off
just Emily being mommy and daddy. some teasing, jealousy, and Emily being a tad controlling lol
very smutty, 1.6k word count
Emily Prentiss x fem reader
It's been a really long and exhausting case. Now that you and the team are finally on the jet and heading back to the BAU you can relax. You were sitting across from Emily, Derek and JJ on the other side of her and you. Spencer was sitting across the aisle at his own table. Hotch and Rossi sitting across the jet talking about the case you just finished, while you guys were mindlessly bickering. “So y/n, how's it going with that girl you’ve been seeing?” Of course Derek would ask that, though this whole trip you couldn’t seem to keep your eyes off Emily. It took a second before you could answer. Emily’s eyes were focused on your lips like she was waiting for you to answer. “It's okay I guess, we’ve only gone on 2 dates. Not really anything spectacular.” you felt a wave of heat wash over your body as Emily began to smile at your response. “Have you talked to her since?” JJ chimed in. “no, I uh actually haven't reached out since our last date,which was last weekend.”you almost felt like blushing. Emily was biting her lip like she always does, making your hands sweat. “Derek, when's the last time you’ve gone on a date?” Emily chimed in, taking the heat off of you. It's almost like she knew what you were feeling. “Let's not talk about that.” Derek spoke, we all started laughing.
Once off the jet, you went to your desk in the bullpen and grabbed some files you needed to finish up before tomorrow. Emily was at her desk on the left of you, Derek on the right. “All right everyone, I'm heading out for the day, goodnight.” Derek walked away with all his belongings and headed toward the elevator. You were soon the follow. You said your goodbyes and started to walk towards the elevator. “I'll walk out with you.” Emily said looking you dead in the eyes. You started to feel warm again but tried not to show it. She also said her goodbyes and you both walked toward the elevator, you hit the button and waited. It was silent the whole way down and into the parking lot. “ So do you have any special plans for this weekend?” Emily looked over at you as you both walked to your car. She had a smile on her face, she was so beautiful. “ I actually don’t have anything planned, maybe look over some old files.” you stopped next to your car and so did she. Then after a brief moment she took a step closer. “You know, you don’t have to be so serious all the time.” she spoke seductively, drawing you in. You could smell her perfume, vanilla and lavender. “Uh well…” you started. Emily took a step closer, you were almost touching. Your mind was blank. All you could think about was the feeling of her body on yours, her lips on yours.
“Why don’t we do something tonight?” Emily asked, her body still almost touching yours. “Well , uhm, I don’t..” you couldn’t even finish your sentence. Emily biting her lip again and making you melt. “ you're so cute when you're nervous.” Emily took the final step toward you, her body on yours for the first time. She was so intoxicating it made you wet. “Y-yes we can do something tonight.” you finally managed to get out. You’d never felt this way before, and you knew there was tension building since day one. Emily always had her eyes on you, and now she had her eyes on your lips. She leaned in closer, her lips almost on yours. Then she tilted her head up toward your ear, you felt her lips graze you. “Let's go then.” she whispered. Your knees almost gave out at the sound of her voice. She grabbed your hand and began walking to her car and you glady followed. She opened the passenger door for you and you got in. she shut the door for you and walked to her side and got in and started the car.
Once we made it out of the parking lot, she drove with a need for speed. It was a silent ride for the most part but the tension was building. She stopped at a red light and looked over at you, need in her eyes. She grabbed your thigh and you couldn’t help the little moan that escaped your lips. Her touch sent electricity throughout your body. She smirked and continued driving. About 5 more minutes passed before we pulled up to her apartment complex. She opened her door and got out of the car with grace, she came over to your side and opened the door for you, her hand held out for yours to hold. Once inside the main entrance, you walked up a flight of steps before she opened the door. She motioned for you to enter and she followed after you, shutting the door behind her. You took a look around, noticing how nice and neat her place was. She had great taste. “You have a really nice pl-” before you could finish Emily had her body pressed against yours, her hands finding your waist. She had you pressed against the wall, lips almost touching. “Can I kiss you now?” she asked softy, and you’ve been waiting for this for a while. You didn’t say a word, then you finally pressed your lips to hers. Emily liked that, she held the kiss for a moment longer before she kissed you back a little harder. There was a need in her kiss.
Her lips still on yours, her body pressing yours into the wall. She slipped her tongue in your mouth, deepening the kiss. Your tongue made its way to her mouth, fighting for dominance before she pulled away, biting your bottom lip in the process. She picked you up, your legs straddling her as she brought you to the bedroom. She laid you down on the bed, she was on top. She began kissing you again, more passionately this time. It felt like she needed your lips. You wrapped your arms around her, pulling her closer. She grabbed your hands and put them over your head, holding you down while she kissed you hard, her tongue circling in your mouth. Your hips couldn’t help but thrust looking for some kind of friction. You needed her badly. She took that as an invitation and pulled your shirt over your head. Your chest is almost
bare besides the bra you were wearing. She gave your breasts a little squeeze before sliding her shirt over her head. She was wearing black lace and it was so sexy. You couldn’t take your eyes off her chest. She smirked and slipped her bra off, then returned to being on top of you. Her skin was soft and warm on yours. She kissed your lips before making her way down your cheek and the side of your neck. She placed little kisses, and sucked some spots in between. This made you squirm. You just wanted her face between your legs.
She made her way to your breasts, carefully slipping your bra over your head and working on each one. She kissed and sucked your right nipple, cupping the left and switched giving them both attention. She kissed her way down your stomach, she was driving you nuts. She unzipped your pants and slid them off. “You're so wet for me baby.” Emily spoke in that soft, seductive voice. “Please fuck me, please.” she locked eyes with you after your request.
“I love when you beg.” that was all she said before your panties were off and her face was between your legs. Her tongue sliding down your folds and touching your entrance. She did this 2 more times driving you wild. You couldn't stop your hips from moving into her touch.
“Keep still baby,” she spoke right into your pussy before finding your clit. There was no way you could keep still, her tongue dancing circles over your clit. You grabbed onto the blankets for support, you couldn't stop your legs from shaking. Emily worked your clit, your juices flowing out. You were so close to release, then she stopped. “I said keep still.” she looked at your face, there was a pain in your eyes. You needed to cum, your clit was throbbing. Once you stopped squirming, she put her first 2 fingers in her mouth, sucking lightly before putting them inside you. She knew exactly what she was doing, and she was good at it. She started to fuck you slowly as you tried your best not to move. Small moans escaped your lips.
Then she began to fuck you harder, her fingers curled up touching your sweet spot. “Oh god Emily,” she moaned at that response, pumping her fingers harder. She put her thumb over your clit rubbing in circles. That sets you over the edge. Your legs began to shake, your orgasm taking control. Emily felt your entrance pulsing and she slowed, riding out your high. She was watching you as you opened your eyes, your legs still shaking. “Jesus Em, I think I saw god.” she smiled at your praise.
“I think you should stay here tonight.” Emily spoke firmly, moving to lay next to you on the bed. All you did was nod your head, you couldn’t go anywhere anyway because she drove you here. Though you did want to stay. “I also don’t want you seeing that girl anymore.” Emily looked over at you. “ I want to see you more, and no one else.”
“Uh okay,” you began before she placed one last kiss on your lips.
“So, how about some food?”
