MAIN | MASTERLIST | IRL & Social Media AU
Pairing â F1 Driver!Rafe x High School Sweetheart!(F)Reader
Summary â Before Rafe became one of the best drivers on the grid, he was yours. However, when his popularity skyrocketed, he became one of the most eligible bachelors in F1, leaving you behind to indulge in the notoriety of the sport. Yet, years have passed, and he hasnât stopped thinking about you: his first love, his high school sweetheart, the only person to believe in him. When new management takes over his team, heâs afraid their new strategy could undermine his role in the cutthroat league. But in an unexpected twist of fate, Rafe discovers you returning to the circuit as part of the new leadershipânow, with a ring on your finger. Engaged to his boss.

You nearly jump out of your skin. The voice was closeâtoo close to be a figment of your imagination. And when you pick up the steady breaths of another person occupying your space, you know it to be true. With all the hairs standing on your arms, you slowly turn around to face the owner of the voice: Rafe Cameron.
Heâs casually leaning against the counter on the opposite end of the kitchen, a couple of cold brews beside him, while his arms are crossed over his chest. Expectantly.
This is exactly what you were trying to avoid.
âHi,â you squeak, all confidence from your call vanishing.
âHi,â Rafe echoes, a lopsided smile tugging at his lips. Instinctively, you tighten the hold of your snack to your chest.
âHi,â you repeat, heart hammering wildly, losing every ounce of composure youâre trying to muster. But itâs clearly not going well given youâre unable to say any other word without stumbling into a complete mess.
âHi,â he laughs, a rich airy sound that leaves your stomach twisting and turning. You donât understand whatâs so funny, especially since you want nothing more than to melt into a puddle at your own feet. âIs that the only word you know or can you answer me now?â
Your mind blanks. You canât recall the question proposed, and as time ticks, the discomfort from the lack of knowledge expands. Just as youâre about to run out of the room, Rafe notices, and repeats back to you.
âOh,â you mumble, fidgeting with your snack. âUm, Iâum, well, Kiara.â
âCarrera?â His head tilts, the carefree smile widening and a small dimple pokes out, rewarding you for your answer. âYouâre friends with her?â
You nod, not trusting your voice.
"So thatâs who youâre complaining to about us being obnoxious?"
Your face burns up. Your mouth pops open, but nothing falls through.
Someone in the living room calls for him. âIn a minute!â He shouts, his eyes never straying from your face, observing and taking in every ounce of embarrassment filtering your features. He asks again, âA simple yes or no will do.â
âItâs not like that,â you blurt out, the words tumbling over themselves. âI justâYou know how you guys alwaysâI mean, you have to knowââ
âLook,â he chuckles, holding out a hand, stopping you from making a bigger fool of yourself. âI get it. Weâre loud. But you donât have to afraid. We donât bite.â He says, before pausing, the corner of his mouth lifts into a smirk. âUnless you ask us to.â
âIââ You have no words. You donât even know what to say. âIâm sorry.â
âWhy are you apologizing, youâre right.â He shrugs. His eyes sweep over your body, familiarity trickling in. âYouâre the tutor girl, right? The one in my grade?â
Youâre surprised Rafe knows this. While you may be in his year, you donât circulate the same crowd as himâaka, the ones hanging around your brother and his peers of F1 enthusiasts.
âYeah,â you answer with a quiet nod. âMainly for science.â
âI like science,â he grins, but thereâs a subtle tone of innuendo, causing your stomach to flutter. âSo, if I need help, I can come to you?â
Your eyes widen, expecting this to be a joke. But nothing but sincerity covers his features. A brow raised as heâs patiently awaiting your confirmation.
Someone calls out again, more urgently this time. âJust a sec!â He snaps, his irritation hardens his features in a matter of seconds, his words coming out as sharp. But when he drags his gaze back to you, all of it disappears. âYeah?â
You bite your bottom lip. Contemplating, before inevitably, deliriously, and perhaps stupidly, nodding. âYeah.â
âAlright, Iâll keep that in mind.â He says with a wink, pushing himself off the counter and collecting the beers with one hand before walking back into the living room.
It takes a few seconds before your breath catches up after Rafeâs departure. When all the air fills to your lungs, a sense of sobriety unveils itself, and you exhale sharply. You canât believe that just happened, and as you collect your phone to return to the room, you discover Kiara is still on the line.

I stare for a minute. There are...a lot of people standing around my front door.
I shake myself out of my surprise. "Can I...help you? Your Highness," I add hastily, sweeping into a deep curtsy.
The prince takes a small step forward. "We are looking for a Miss Anastasia Ryntz? We were told this is the correct residence."
My brow furrows in confusion. I feel like I'm missing something. I fidget with my threadbare apron as I slip between the guards and start fumbling with my keys to unlock the door.
"Yes, it is," I say slowly, ushering the crowd inside. "I'm Anastasia. I'm sorry, not to be rude, but why are you here?"
The prince looks around, distinctly uncomfortable in my very small house. With all the guards and his advisors, the room is very crowded. I wince as one of the guards tries to turn around and knocks a vase off my lone table.
The prince sighs and rubs the space between his eyes. "Really, Cass? That's it, everyone out." Balancing the cake in one hand, he uses the other to shoo at everyone. They look at each other uncertainly.
"I'm serious!" he yells. "The only people who are staying in this house are the lady, myself, and Grimms." He gestures at his closest advisor.
Slowly, my house empties, and I awkwardly offer the prince the one chair I own. "Would you...like to sit?"
He accepts gratefully, his advisor standing behind me, me across the table. The silence stretches for a few minutes before he jumps a bit in his seat. "Oh! I- We brought you a birthday cake!" He shoves it across the table eagerly.
I stare at it, then at him, confused. "Why?"
The prince frowns. "Well...it's your birthday, isn't it?"
I nod slowly. "22nd birthday. Why do you know that? And why do you know my name?"
The prince fumbles with his words for several seconds before his advisor - Grimms - sighs and speaks up. "Prince Auron is here to speak with you about something of the upmost importance. Are you the only person in residence? This is a private matter."
"Yes, it's just me." Dang it, I know my voice sounded sad there. I don't want them to think I'm a loser! "I live alone. By myself." Yeah, that was so much better. Whatever. "Anyway, what's up?" Facepalm.
Prince Auron clears his throat awkwardly. "You, of course, are aware that I am the youngest of the royal family. As such, on my birthday this year, when I came of age, I was given a prophecy about my future in the kingdom."
I nod. This isn't news to me. The prince's oldest sister will inherit the throne and his older brother will lead the armies and advise the crown. The third child is always a bit of a wild card.
"Does your prophecy have something to do with my business?" I ask. "I'm not sure how much help I'll be." I snort with derision. "You can see how I live."
Prince Auron fidgets. "Ah. Yes. Well, not really."
I wait, then when he doesn't elaborate, I sigh. "Your Highness, I would love to help you, but I can't do that unless you actually tell me what you need."
He blurts out. "I need you to marry me. Please."
I blink. "I'm sorry. What?"
You are a poor girl selling flowers. Today is your birthday but no one knows. When you return home you find the prince of the kingdom waiting for you with a birthday cake. "Are you sure this is the one?" He whispers to his advisor.

Birds of a Feather
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x female reader (friends to lovers)
Word Count: 2.5K
Summary: You have to attend a close relative's wedding and there's no one better to bring than your best friend, Bucky.
Author's Note: Seeing so much of happy Seb lately-and looking so good-made me want to write something sexy and fluffy so here we are. Thank you all so much for reading! Much love always! â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¤ď¸Divider by the lovely @firefly-graphics thanks Daisy!đĽ°
Warnings: soft and sweet, tense and flirty, Bucky is the best in every way!
âCome on up. Room 322.â
His thumbs hang limply over the phone screen, his brain going blank.
When he sent the text ten seconds earlier to let you know heâs arrived he figured you would meet him down in the lobby or at the hall.
Meeting you in the hotel room is a problem he anticipated when he gave himself a pep talk before leaving.
âSheâs your best friend. Donât do anything stupidâŚlike go to the hotel room.â
His fingers finally start to move over the letters. âI can meet you down hereâŚâ
But maybe you need help with something?
He deletes the text, now typing, âis there anyone with you?,â but that just sounds weird and possessive.
âI can see you typing,â you text. âJust come up. I need help.â
With a laugh, he deletes everything again and types simply, âbe right there doll.â
His long legs carry him quickly to the elevator and when he presses the button for the third floor he takes a deep breath, his pulse climbing itâs way up his throat.
The door to your room is propped open with the dead bolt, but he knocks anyway.
âCome in Buck!â
Pushing it open just enough to peek his head in, he calls out, âI could be anyone, and you just invite me in without checking!â
âYou just texted me you were coming up,â you sing from the bathroom, quickly continuing before he can say more, âand most of the people on his floor are friends or relatives here for the wedding.â
âWell, Iâm glad to know you take your safety as seriously as I do,â he shouts back.
Your voice gets louder as you walk into the bedroom. âWith you around I never have to worrâŚâ
You stop for a breath when you see him, but your next words are lost to the blank void of his brain as he takes in your dress and how you look in it. To put it simply- stunning.
âBucky?â
He startles, having no idea how long heâd been silent.
âYeah dollâŚthatâsâŚIâm here.â
When he finally drags his eyes to your face, youâre fighting a smile. âI asked if you could help me?â
âOh, right. Sure. With what exactly?â
He cringes but steps closer.
âMy dress?â
You turn around to show him the fabric at the back that hangs open, a tiny zipper dangling down at your lower back.
Trying to suppress a groan, but not being entirely successful he swallows hard. âThat zipper looks very tiny.â
âIt is,â you agree. âI realize I should have asked someone with smaller hands to help me out, but everyone is running around with their own nonsense so here we are.â
He approaches with a casual, âsure, of course doll.â
But then he does something without fully realizing it until the shiver runs along your back: he drags a knuckle down the curve of your spine.
You turn and look at him over your shoulder.
He just blinks and looks down to grab the zipper, mumbling about how small it is.
Itâs quiet as he carefully pulls the zipper up and when he reaches the top he lets it fall and gently runs a finger along the top of the dress as he moves around to look at you.
âAll set,â he whispers.
You smile and clear your throat before giving him an appreciative once over.
âYou look hot.â
âThanks doll. YouâŚâ and he struggles when his voice comes out a bit strangled, âyou look breathtaking.â
You reach up and touch his bow tie, pulling at the neatly tied ends as you tell him, âI was hoping youâd arrive a flustered mess over how to tie this so I could do it for you.â
With a grin, he reaches up and tugs the end, untying it in a smooth pull.
âFigure you should do something in return after I battled that zipper,â he teases.
Still smiling, you take a hold of the tie, tugging it to align the ends evenly around his neck. âI didnât get the impression it was such a hardship.â
His answering smirk is so telling you have to stifle a laugh.
âAre you feeling ready for this? I know these big events arenât your favorite.â
âIâll manage just fine doll, thanks. Besides, Iâve got the most beautiful date in the whole place.â
With your focus still on his bow tie he takes the opportunity to openly stare. When you smile at his sweet words heâs mesmerized by the way your soft lips part and his eyes stay glued to your mouth.
You look up to meet his gaze and he quickly lifts his eyes, a light pink sweeping across his cheeks.
You blink away and he looks down at your hands, noting the very little progress youâve made.
âDo you have any idea what youâre doing?â
âWellâŚyes. Iâm sure I canâŚâ
âYouâve never done this before, have you?â
âYou might be right!,â you quip, âbut Iâm no quitter.â
Heâd be happy to stand there all night.
You finally step back, surveying your work, and frown. âIâm going to be honest, not sure I made it look as good as you did.â
He looks down and undoes the mess and you glower as he handily fixies it.
âWow, no need to gloat you butthead.â
He lets out a full-bodied laugh, eyes crinkled, and nose scrunched, and you enjoy the sight before he explains, âIâve done it a million times. Iâm always the one in the tux when we go undercover.â
âThatâs because youâre the one that looks the best.â
âThanks doll,â he answers quietly.
âThere are so many people here,â you whisper as you lead him through the crowd in the hall.
He letâs out a low whistle, nodding in agreement and aking in the dĂŠcor.
You greet people as you walk, introducing Bucky to those that donât already know him. Their eyes follow you, curiosity piqued in their expression as they wonder who he is to you.
You wonder the same. Your favorite person in the world. Your best friendâŚand so much more?
You take his elbow and guide him forward toward the outside set up where the ceremony will take place. On the way you find your grandmother and introduce him.
Since he canât take his eyes off you he notices the subtle shift in your demeanor, the softening of your face and the adoration in your eyes.
He expects a gentle handshake but instead gets pulled in for a hug.
âOh darling, isnât he a sight,â you grandma says, patting Buckyâs cheek. âAnd you,â she says, turning her eyes your way. âGorgeous.â
âThanks grandma,â you beam.
A woman whizzes by, catching your eye and pointing to her watch.
âLooks like itâs time,â you announce.
Bucky holds out one arm for your grandma and the other for you.
âAnd a gentleman too,â your grandma gushes as she loops her arm through his. âDefinitely a keeper.â
âYou can keep grandma company,â you say as you approach the chairs.
âOf course, doll,â he says and leans in to kiss your cheek before helping your grandma into her seat.
âIâll see you after the ceremony.â You gather your dress and turn to head back inside to meet the wedding party. âMiss me,â you call over your shoulder with a playful smile.
He stares as you walk away, quietly admitting, âI already do.â
Slight nerves take over when you hear the music start but the moment you walk out into the crowd your eyes zero in on Bucky. And what do you know? Heâs looking right back at youâŚand he doesnât take his eyes off you the whole ceremony.
After the ceremony it takes forever to work your way through the crowd to him, and in between catching up with friends and family or directing someone somewhere, you catch glimpses of him smiling and laughing with your grandma and happily keeping her company.
When you finally do reach him, your grandma has been safely escorted to her seat and now a woman hangs off his arm- Jessica. You know her, an old family friend, and you like her well enough, but you step up behind them right as she asks Bucky if she can steal him for the first dance, and your stomach drops.
You jerk to a stop. He hasnât seen you. He should accept. Youâll hate it, but youâre not in any position to protest.
But then Bucky says only a gentle, âsorry, no can do. Tonight, Iâve only got one dance partner.â
Your heart nearly leaps out of your chest, and you step closer, swallowing down the emotion.
âHey you two!â
Bucky turns, extracting his arm from Jessica and setting a warm palm at your lower back.
âAnd here she is. My favorite dancing partner.â
Jessica leans around from his other side and says hello.
âThanks for coming,â you tell her.
âOh my god, of course. I wouldnât miss it. And I was just meeting your friend, James, here.â
She emphasizes the word friend and at her usage of his real name you have to hold back a giggle.
âIsnât he wonderful,â you hum, sliding your hand up his bicep. âHeâs been keeping my grandmother company this whole time.â
She swoons and smiles at Bucky before turning back to you.
âHe is. I just wasnât expecting you to have a date. Youâre usually always flying solo at these family events.â
You feel the smile slipping from your face and an uncomfortable laugh escapes.
The simple answer never comes to you, and you feel caught like a deer in the headlights.
âActually, thatâs only because I was away for work,â Bucky steps in smoothly. âI hate to miss any chance to be her date, but my schedule can be pretty demanding sometimes.â
âOh, youâre so sweet,â Jessica says. âWork is important of course.â
âYeah,â he answers, âbut not as important as her. So, from now I wonât be missing another event.â
Jessicaâs face does a thing. Itâs a barely restrained, âoh okay, I see.â
Buckyâs smile remains but it doesnât look entirely natural anymore but when he looks at you, every emotion on his face is genuine.
âReady to find our seats doll face,â he asks you.
âSure,â you reply.
âWell, it was nice to meet you Jennifer. Enjoy the party.â
With a firm hand, he leads you away. You allow yourself to be guided up the grassy path and indoors to where a band plays. Bucky grabs you two flutes of champagne off a passing tray and hands you one.
âThat was swoony,â you tell him then take a sip.
âAll I did was grab it from a tray doll. Time to raise your bar a bit.â
Laughing, you smack his beefy shoulder with your free hand. âNot that! The way you gently let Jennifer have it back there.â
He takes a sip, eyes on you. âShe deserved worse, but I didnât want to start trouble.â
With your brow raised you match his mischievous grin then you take his glass and set it down on one of the small tables, leading him to the dance floor.
He looks confused at first but when your hands slide up his chest and around his neck he circles his arms around your waist.
He relaxes against you, hands warm and strong on your lower back and you rest your cheek to his shoulder.
âYouâre always so comfy.â
âThank you.â
âAnd you always look out for me.â
He presses a kiss to your temple.
âOf course, doll.â
âYouâre my favorite person in the Universe.â
He doesnât respond at first, not for five or ten or thirty seconds. You keep waiting for the feeling of rejection in his silence but instead it feels like an agreement and finally his words confirm it.
âMine too, doll.â
Your quiet slow dance is the last moment alone you have for the next few hours because what follows is a whirlwind of a reception.
And the whole time he canât take his eyes off you.
âThink Iâm ready to get out of here,â you say as you slump against his side.
He carefully holds you up as he stands and reaches to take your hand.
âCome on doll face. Iâll take you home.â
When you reach your apartment door your feet are aching, and your legs are tired. You retrieve your key from the hidden pocket in your small purse and slide it into the doorknob.
âIâm going to need you to unzip me,â you say, gesturing casually to your dress.
His silence makes you slowly turn around to face him and when you meet his eyes theyâre heavy with heat and desire.
âBucky?â
âTurn back around,â he says gruffly.
You do as your told and feel his exhaled puff of air against your bare shoulder before he takes your wrists in this hands and places your palms flat against the door. His metal fingers slide down one arm then trace the curve of your shoulder, while his other toys with the small zipper.
He starts to pull it down, so slowly, you feel every brush of his skin against yours and it sends a tremble across your body. For every new inch of your skin that he exposes his breath quickens. You can feel the heat of him so close and your fingers press into the hard wood of the door.
Once the fabric hangs loosely at the sides he stops and slips his hands inside to your waist and turns you back to face him.
âYouâre so soft,â he murmurs. âIâŚâ
You drag your fingers along his temple and down his jaw. Your finger falls to his bottom lip, tracing itâs outline.
You can see it in his eyes, the understanding that everything between you is easy and you donât have to try. Itâs too good.
Your gaze drops to his lips again and your mouth goes soft. âKiss me Bucky.â
The words are just barely out of your mouth and heâs already leaning in, lips on yours, warm and urgent, his hands rising to cup your face. Your instincts send tight, possessive fists to the lapels of his jacket and you melt completely into the domination and tenderness in his touch.
With a quiet groan he tilts his head, deepening the contact into a decadent slide, sending a hungry hand down your body once again and grabbing your ass to press all your softness against the hard planes of his body.
He catches your bottom lip between his teeth, drags slowly away, and you chase the contact, but he stops you, pressing his thumb over your lips.
He stares for what feels like forever, then kisses you again, lingering before he murmurs, âyouâre so beautiful,â into the sensitive skin below your ear, and then repeats it quietly into your neck.
âAre you going to stay the night?â you ask breathless.
âIf youâll have mâŚâ
âYes. Yes Bucky.â

Hello, I love your blog! What do you think about this scenario, when jihoon finds out reader has very sensitive breasts and nipples and is able to have a nipple orgasm? But reader already knew that she can have it, but left it as a surprise for him. So he's just playing with reader's tits and it makes her more turned on, so he continues and it happens
woozi making reader cum just from nipple play
WARNINGS: smut, nipple play, a very shocked and turned on jihoon?, biting, licking, sucking, mention of penetrative sex, masturbation (f. receiving)
youâre lying with your boyfirend, all sprawled out and giggly, letting jihoon take his time playing with your body and your responses. his hands are warm, and surprisingly smooth, fingers slightly calloused.
âyouâre so sensitive here,â he mutters, thumb swiping lazily over your nipple. the small, surprised gasp you let out makes him pause, a smirk pulling at the corner of his lips. âwhat, didnât think iâd notice?â
you bite your lip, playing coy. âmaybe.â
he quirks an eyebrow, clearly intrigued, and his other hand joins the party. his thumbs circle your nipples in slow flicks, and when you arch into his touch, he leans in close.
âthis good?â
âmhm,â you hum, trying to keep it casual, but your body betrays you. your back arches, your breath hitches, and youâre doing everything not to outright moan.
he notices.
âhuh.â he tilts his head, eyes narrowing slightly as he watches your reaction. his fingers pinch and roll, just a little rougher, and when your thighs press together, his smirk widens. âwait⌠no way.â
you donât respond, just close your eyes and let out the tiniest whimper. itâs enough to send his brain into overdrive.
âholy shit,â he mutters, more to himself than to you. âis this⌠are youâŚ?â
you peek at him through half-lidded eyes, the faintest, most mischievous smile on your lips as you grit out a bit sulky. âwhat do you think, woozi?â
his jaw drops. actually drops.
âyouâre joking,â he says, voice shaky, but his hands donât stop. his fingers start to work harder, and it's almost funny how far hes willing to concentrate, as if heâs testing a theory.
âoh my god, youâre not joking,â he breathes when your breathing gets heavier, your hips starting to shift like youâre chasing something.
âkeep going,â you gasp, voice thin and desperate now, and thatâs all the confirmation he wished.
his mouth joins in, lips latching onto one nipple while his hand works the other. he alternates between soft licks and firm sucks, and the combination is devastating.
âyouâre actually gonna cum from this,â he mumbles against your skin, sounding both awestruck and ridiculously turned on. âfuck, youâre unreal.â
your hands fly to his hair, pushing him back to twirl his tongue around your sensitive and flushed bud, tugging as your body strains under him. âjihoonâoh my god, stop t-talking!â
he feels your thighs quiver, your hands tighten in his hair, he realizes that every flick of his tongue is pushing you closer to the border. his lips wrap around your nipple, sucking hard before switching to fast flicks of his tongue. his other hand rolls your neglected nipple between his fingers, pinching and twisting just enough to draw out the prettiest gasps from you.
your head falls back, mouth hanging open, and youâre gone. when it finally happens, your entire body tenses, thighs clenching, your hips lifting slightly off the bed as you moan, high-pitched and breathy.
jihoonâs eyes snap up to your face, his mouth still latched onto your breast as he watches the realization wash over you.
âoh my god,â he mumbles funnily around your nipple, pulling back just enough to look at you properly.
your chest heaves, your hands falling limply from his hair to rest on the bed. youâre flushed, your skin glistening, and your lips slightly parted as you try to catch your breath.
jihoon sits back on his knees, his chest rising and falling with his own labored breathing. âyou actuallyâŚâ his voice trails off, disbelief and arousal warring in his face.
you stay quiet, your head turned slightly to the side, as if avoiding his gaze.
âyou just came⌠from that?â he asks, his tone somewhere between wonder and outright lust.
you nod, cheeks burning as you avoid looking directly at him. âyeah,â you mumble, so quiet he barely hears you.
his hand moves to your thigh, his grip firm as he slides his palm up, pausing when his fingers meet the wet heat between your pussy lips. âyouâre not messing with me, right? this wasnât, like, a coincidence?â
âjihoon!â you groan, covering your face with your hands. âitâs not weird, okay? iâve always been like this.â
he stares at you, his brain still trying to catch up with what just happened. his fingers move against you, feeling the slick and glossy proof of your orgasm, and he bites his lip. âare you kidding me? weird? this is⌠fuck, this is the hottest thing Iâve ever seen.â
your hips shift at his words, instinctively pressing into his hand, and thatâs when he notices the subtle roll of your body, the way your legs fall open just a little wider, and how your gaze flicks down to the obvious strain in his sweatpants.
his cock twitches against his thigh, already achingly hard, and he canât help but smirk. âyouâre already thinking about it, arenât you?â
you lift your head, your eyes narrowing at his cocky tone. âthinking about what?â
he leans down, his mouth brushing against your ear. âhow good itâs gonna feel when I fuck you stupid.â
you shudder, and before you can answer, his lips find yours, stealing the breath from your lungs as he presses you into the mattress.
your legs wrap around his waist, pulling him closer, and he groans into your mouth as his hips grind against yours. his hands find your breasts again, fingers toying with your sensitive nipples, and your body jerks beneath him.
âso sensitive,â he murmurs, his lips moving down your neck, his tongue tracing a path to your collarbone. âi could make you come like that all night, couldnât I?... youâve been holding out on me,â he teases, biting lightly at the soft swell of your breast. âkeeping secrets. youâre gonna have to make it up to me.â you donât even get the chance to respond before his tongue is back on your nipple, his fingers slipping between your folds to find your gummy walls.

Jason with a masc s/o who CANNOT stop stealing his jacket, he puts it down for ONE second and itâs already on them and theyâre all snuggled up in it, so happy and cheeky
Thisâll probably be short.
âHey chipmunk have you seen-â Jason didnât even need to finish his sentence when he saw you, all warm smiles and giggles, hogging the very jacket he had been looking for the entire morning.
Jason couldnât help but smile at your happiness in being in his clothing and would happily watch you indulge in his jacket for the rest of his life, but still he had to ask, âare you having fun with my jacket are we, jacket stealer?â His eyes flash with mischief as he saw your posture straighten up at the sound of his voice.
âJason.â You groaned. âYou donât really need this specific jacket do you? Youâve got tones in your wardrobe.â You defended as you gripped his jacket that fitted you perfectly and as warmly as a loving embrace that you never wanted to leave, that and Jasonâs scent lingered within the material, that of which helped you sleep easier at night with the knowledge that he was there with you in another way.
âYou mean your wardrobe?â Jason retorted, âitâs no wonder I can barely find anything of mine because youâre hogging it for yourself, leavening your beloved man with nothing to stave off the unforgiving cold.â He pouts as he acts as though he was freezing by rubbing up and down his bare arms, making you laugh as you wandered over to him from your bed and hugging him by the waist, pressing a kiss to his cheek.
âItâs not my fault that you have the best jackets that you keep lying on the floor, theyâre just begging me to be picked back up and loved again by being worn, by me specifically.â You defended yourself with a cheeky smile as Jason held your face and peppered your face in kisses, making your chuckle while at his mercy.
âYouâre lucky youâre cute,â Jason murmured as he continued to pepper your face in kisses and nuzzles against your cheek and neck, âreal lucky but Iâll get you back sooner or later for being a little jacket stealer.â He says once he pulls away but made sure that you were still very much kept pressed up against him, just so he could shamelessly see just how good you look in his jacket.
It was unfair just how good you looked right now that Jason didnât mind you hogging all his jackets, especially if it meant he could walk in on you wearing them as though you were against the idea of ever parting from something that belonged to him, him! If that wasnât enough to warm his own heart then he didnât know what would, but Jason wasnât about to complain when you were Mel then willing to show your adoration to him by wearing his clothes, even if he took it off for five minutes, you were quick to keep it warm and loved as though you were loving him through the fabric.
So Jason was already coming up with ways to keep having you snatching up his jackets, hoodies and clothes and wearing them as though youâd never get the chance again. Itâs become his favourite thing to witness in his life and he wanted to see it even more often if youâd let him, which heâd hope you would for as long as your with him.

Hi I have a req abt piercer!lando and what he would do if reader asked for a tramp stamp?
oh nonie I love this! strap yourself and in we go... piercer!lando saga: 1 / 2 / 3
piercer!lando loves doing tattoos and he especially loves doing them on you. When you told him you wanted a tramp stamp he felt like the sky opened and you were an angel coming down to sing the sweetest tune to him.
Lando didn't waste time, the very next day he had you in his shop, half hour before closing time after he kicked Max out, knowing he was going to get a lecture but he couldn't care less.
As soon as the stencil is on he has you bent over the tattoo chair, practically naked except for your bra, a tiny scrape of lace that barely covers anything anyway.
"Come on now," he teases as he works on the tattoo, his painfully hard cock nestled inside of your warm heat, your walls wrapped perfectly around him. "Be a good girl for me and don't move. You don't want me to mess up do you princess?"
You shake your head, a whimper falling past your lips as you feel yourself getting more desperate for him, entirely focused on the feeling of his dick feeling you up, the stinging pain of the tattoo needle on your lower back practically unnoticeable.
When the buzzing of the tattoo gun dies down, signaling Lando is done you can barely contain yourself long enough for him to clean the tattoo before you're trying to rock yourself back on him, hoping to grind yourself on his dick.
He laughs, a mean little chuckle, before you feel his fingers wrap around your hair and he pulls hard, forcing a moan out of your mouth as your back arches, the little sting of pain on your scalp begging you to follow back towards him.
"Lando!" You whine, and he loves how desperate it sounds.
His other hand comes down hard, spanking your ass before he releases your hair, both of his hands gripping your waist as he starts fucking himself into you, not giving you time to properly adjust.
"You're just a needy little slut, aren't you princess?" He purrs, his voice much closer than you anticipated. He presses messy kisses along your shoulders, still fucking into you brutally. "A desperate little thing, grinding on my cock while I tattoo you. You don't even care what I ink on your body as long as I fuck you after isn't that right?"
His hand leaves your waist, wrapping around you to toy with your clit. You can't even get a warning out, only managing a high pitches moan as your walls squeeze around him before you squirt, gushing out all over his dick and the floor.
Lando groans, his hips stilling as his dick twitches and you feel the sensation of his warm cum filling up your insides. He pulls out, his cum dripping out of you and down your legs as soon as his cock in no longer plugging your cunt.
"Fuck, that was so hot," he says, turning you around to kiss you, his tongue licking against your own. Finally he pulls back, his eyes focusing on the remains of your orgasm on the floor. "Fuck, Max is gonna kill me!"
want more piercer!lando? send a request and tell me your ideas!

đŻ bf!seungmin Ęଠfem!reader ďźďź đž ďź 1.6k ââ ༯ DRABBLE, domestic fluff, humour, flirting, comfort, mentioned pms, kisses, uni au, pure love, dying jokes. req. by ml ! â¸â¸đ LiBRARY. đŚšŕĄđŚš
yani's note Ë Ë á° this was an absolute TREAT to write omg. i love love love love seungmin sm i'll explode >< thank you mama @cosmicalily for the request, i really hope it comforts you, at least in the slightest !! please take care of yourself and continue get pampered by your people ;) ! comments, requests, asks, likes, follows and reblogs are always appreciated ! comment/ask if you want to be added to my mastertag ! oh god that was a lot of exclamation marks happy reading <3
it starts with a dull ache in your lower abdomen, the kind that makes sitting through lectures feel like an olympic sport. your mood swings follow shortly after, along with an unshakable craving for chocolate. by the time you make it back to your shared apartment with your boyfriend, you're ready to flop onto the couch and disappear into a blanket cocoon.
your boyfriend in question, raises an eyebrow when he sees you shuffle through the door like a defeated sims character. "rough day?" he deadpans, his voice laced with sarcasm.
you groan in response, dropping your miffy tote that he had gotten for you merely two weeks earlier; kicking off your shoes with a dramatic flair. "i'm dying," you announce, flopping onto the couch face-first. "just let me perish here in peace."
he snorts, closing his laptop and setting it aside. "what's the cause of death this time? bad grade? forgot to take your charger? or is it the apocalypse of your own making?"
you flip over and glare at him, your energy too drained for a proper retort. "youâre walking a very thin line, kim seungmin. keyword, very."
that gets his attention. his teasing expression softens, and he stands up, walking over to you. "ah," he says simply, sitting down on the edge of the couch. "that explains why youâve been texting me in all caps about chocolate and why you cursed out a squirrel this morning."
"i still stand by that," you reply, crossing your arms. "that squirrel was judging me."
seungmin rolls his eyes but canât hide the small smile tugging at his lips. he nudges you gently. "move over."
you grumble but comply, scooting over so he can sit beside you. he throws a knitted blanket that was earlier draped on the side of the couch, over both of you and settles in, his arm casually slung over the back of the couch.
"what do you need? heating pad? snacks? my undivided attention to watch you be dramatic?"
"another retort and you're gonna be-"
"begging for mercy? your highness, i am so deeply sorry to have offended you in this state of-"
"you're insufferable."
"and yet, here i am, ready to be your personal butler," he smirks, leaning back like heâs got all the time in the world. "...your highness." he adds.
"tell me what you want, and i'll think about it."
"actually, on second thought, don't. stay here, i'll be back in the speed of sound."
"it's said as the speed of light."
"too bad i'm not a science major. now you," he leaned in to press a soft kiss on the temple of your head, before patting the top and standing up, draping the blanket over you once more. "..stay here, with all your miffy plushies, and watch some tv. i'll be quick, okay?"
ten minutes.
it had been only ten minutes since he had gone, and then that was when you heard the familiar rattling of keys from the doorstep.
he stepped inside, balancing two loaded grocery bags of goodies and what not. his eyes flicked over you with a keen, knowing look. your cheeks were puffed, a tell-tale sign of bloating, and the slightly pinched expression on your face made his heart tug.
"i told you to stay seated."
"i had to change, mister." you shrugged.
"so that's the excuse for wearing my hoodie? again?" he remarked, raising an eyebrow as he placed the bags on the table. "did i leave anything behind that you haven't stolen?"
you got up from the couch with a dramatic groan. "i donât steal, i borrow."
"you mean like how pirates 'borrow' treasure?" he said, shrugging off his jacket. âhowâs your mood? should i brace for impact or am i safe for now?"
you shot him a glare, but it lacked heat. "hey!"
"sorry, sorry," his lips twitched, but instead of firing back, he reached for your waist, his cold fingers brushing against your arms. his touch was both gentle and grounding. "is it getting worse?"
the softness in his voice melted your defenses immediately. you sighed, leaning your head against his shoulder as he held you tightly in his arms. "i hate this. i feel gross and tired andâŚ" you trailed off with a wave of your free hand.
he squeezed your hand. "and?"
"hungry," you whispered.
he smirked, his teasing demeanor slipping back into place. "lucky for you, i come bearing gifts." he reached into the bag, pulling out your favoritesâchocolate, a lot of chips, and the sacred comfort food: ramen.
he waved them in front of your face. "all for the lady, thanks to her knight in shining armor."
you made grabby hands immediately, eyes lightening up. "gimme."
"what do we say?"
"seungmin, i will literally punch you and have zero remorse, right now."
"eh.. i doubt that. but i'd love to see you try, darling."
. . .
just as you were about to go for his hair, he laughed, surrendering the snacks. "alright, alright. eat your feelings, grumpy little gremlin."
"what did you just call me?" you cringed.
"a gremlin?"
"you've been spending way too much time with felix."
"what's with the face?" he asks, sitting back down. "iâm not a monster, you know. i have my moments."
"rare moments," you quip, taking a bite of the chocolate.
he rolls his eyes again but doesn't argue. instead, he adjusts the heating pad and plugs it in, gently placing it against your lower abdomen. the warmth is instant, and you let out a content sigh.
"better?" he asks, his tone softer now.
"better," you admit, giving him a small smile.
the two of you settle into a comfortable silence, the kind that only comes with years of friendship and understanding. seungmin picks up the tv remote, scrolling through options before landing on a rom-com you secretly adore but would never admit to liking.
"really?" you tease. "i didnât peg you for a rom-com guy."
he shrugs, his expression carefully neutral. "iâm not. but you are. and youâre unbearable when youâre bored, so consider this a self-preservation tactic."
your heart does a little flip at his words, even if he disguises them in sarcasm. you lean against him, your head resting on his shoulder. he stiffens for a second but quickly relaxes, letting you get comfortable.
"youâre not so bad," you murmur, your voice barely audible over the movieâs opening scene.
he glances at you, his features softening in the dim light of the screen. "donât get used to it," he says, though thereâs no real bite in his words.
the rest of the evening passes in a haze of warmth and quiet companionship. at some point, seungmin shifts, pulling you closer so youâre practically curled up against him. his arm drapes around your shoulders, his thumb absentmindedly tracing circles on your abdomen, slightly massaging.
you sat in comfortable silence, with the distant hum of the tv, for a few moments as you tore into a bag of tortilla chips, the faint outline of the heatpad that he had prepared resting on your abdomen, visible. seungmin watched you with a fondness he rarely let anyone else see.
he wasnât one to be overly affectionate in public, always opting for sarcasm and well-placed retorts instead of grand gestures. but here, with you curled up against him, he let his softer side surface.
"do you need some tea or water?" he asked after a while, brushing a few stray strands of your hair away from your face.
you nodded, too busy munching to reply.
he stood with a sigh, muttering under his breath. "youâre such a queen, making me do all the work."
"you fucker- you literally just admitted to being a 'knight in shining armor' and 'butler' like less than half an hour ago!" you called after him.
"okay, easy with the language, sailor," he raised his hands in defence, 'i take it, it's still terrible?" he frowned, looking into your eyes.
"not as bad as earlier though, thanks to you." you grin.
"...and the mood switches.. you're scary."
. . .
by the time he returned with two cups of freshly brewed chamomile tea, you had sunk deeper into the beige couch, looking more like a cozy lump than a person. he handed it to you and sat back down, pulling your feet into his lap.
"thank you," you murmured, being handed the floral teacup in your hand.
he nodded, rubbing small circles, giving slight pressure at certain points into your calves, trying to ease your pain. "donât mention it."
a comfortable lull settled over you two again. you closed your eyes, letting the pain and discomfort ebb away under his gentle touch.
"you know," he said suddenly, "if you just stopped having a uterus, this wouldnât be a problem."
"oh, brilliant. now why didnât i think of that?" you rolled your eyes. "but now that i think of it, it might give rise to someone else's problems, not affecting me though." you spoke with an innocent grin on your face.
he stared at you, unable to understand for a hot second. until it came to him- and you could swear you saw his ears shading crimson.
"wow, you're so thoughtful." he murmurs, catching your hand before you could hit him again and holding it tight. "youâre so violent."
"youâre so annoying."
"and yet, here we are," he quipped, threading his fingers through yours.
you squeezed his hand. "here we are."
for a moment, neither of you spoke. the late afternoon light streamed through the windows, casting a golden glow over your intertwined hands.
seungmin looked down at you, the usual sarcastic smirk replaced with something softer, quieter. "i know it sucks," he murmured. "but youâre doing great. youâre strong. and iâll be here⌠even if you eat all my hoodies and make me buy half the store every month."
your lips quirked. "youâre the best, you know that?"
"as if it wasn't obvious," he deadpanned. "but itâs nice to hear it."

áŻâ starâs midnight caller âáŻ
MASTERLIST
pairing: billie eilish x sex-hotline-operator!fem!reader
genre: fluff, smut(kinda)
synopsis: in the quiet of the night, you answer a call that pulls you into a world of mystery and intrigue. what starts as a simple conversation with a stranger turns into a connection you never expected, leaving you craving more with each ring.
wc: 2.4k
warnings: light cussing here and there
authors note: let me know what you guys think, i really liked writing this and i want to make a part two. also thereâs no smut in this part but the concept of the hotline is sexual (idk if that made sense) anyways imma stop rambling byeee â
phone call style story â reader is in bold italics, billie is in blue italics.
ââââ
wednesday 12:43 am â incoming call from +1 (980) 598-7201 (charlotte, NC)
âthanks so much, babygirl,â richard says from the other side of the phone, his voice soft, tinged with something like gratitude. âyou always know what i need.â
richard is one of your regulars, calling at least twice a week. he likes to imagine that youâre his long-lost girlfriend, reaching out from some parallel universe. you let him ramble, your voice smooth and coaxing, playing into his fantasy like a script you know by heart. a light laugh here, a soft hum there, the occasional breathy moan when it fits the moment.
âanytime, boo,â you reply, fingers already grazing the disconnect button. âtake care of yourself, okay?â
the line clicks off, leaving a brief silence that feels heavier than it should. you exhale, stretching your arms above your head as you try to shake off the remnants of his voice. just another call. just another night.
soft light spills through the corners of your room, golden and warm against the pale lavender of your walls. the curtains billow lazily, carried by a breeze that whispers through the cracked window. outside, the city humsâa distant siren wailing, cars rolling down the street below, someone leaning on their horn too long, too loud.
at your desk, you lean forward, catching your reflection in the mirror perched precariously against a stack of books. sticky lip gloss catches the lamplight, glinting like glass. your lashes look decentâlifted enough to remind you of your own femininity. normally, you wouldnât bother. no one can see you, after all. but it helps, this small ritual. itâs armor in a way, a mask you slip behind before stepping into this role.
âalright,â you mutter, rolling your neck to release the tension settling in your shoulders. âone more call and iâm done.â
the surface beneath your elbows is clutteredâtextbooks splayed open, scribbled lab reports fighting for space with overdue bills. itâs not glamorous, but it pays. and itâs enough, for now.
you adjust your headset, letting the padded cups press comfortably against your ears, and clear your throat. the practiced warmth creeps back into your voice as the phone chimes again, flashing another number across the screen.
wednesday 12:49 am â incoming call from +1 (213) 597-3492 (los angeles, california)
âhello, and thank you for calling the pulse network. this is star speaking.â your voice drops an octave, soft and inviting, the words sliding out like honey. âwho do i have the pleasure of speaking with tonight?â
thereâs a pause on the other endâstatic filling the silence like a breath held too long. then, a voice cuts through, low, smooth, and distinctly feminine.
âuhâŚhi?â she sounds hesitant, her voice fraying at the edges like sheâs second-guessing herself. âis thisâŚis this a-uhâŚhotline forâŚyou know?â
your brows knit for a moment before relaxing. most callers know exactly what they want, their voices heavy with intent. but her hesitation feels different. delicate, almost.
âthat depends,â you say, leaning forward slightly, your tone light and playful. âwhat are you looking for, my love?â
she exhales sharply, and you can hear the faint sound of movementâlike sheâs pacing, the rhythm of her footsteps soft and uneven.
âhonestly?â she says after a beat, her voice quieter now. âi donât even know why i called. jusâ bored, i guess. curious. didnât think this would even work.â
a smile tugs at your lips, though you bite it back. calls like these are rare, but you donât mind them. thereâs something refreshing about the uncertainty, the lack of pretense.
âwell,â you murmur, letting your voice wrap around the words like a velvet ribbon, âweâre here now. go ahead, tell me whateverâs on your mind. no pressure.â
thereâs a pause, long enough that you glance at the timer on the screen, wondering if sheâs about to hang up. but then she sighs again, the sound softer this time, like sheâs giving in.
âis it weird that iâm calling?â she asks, her voice dipping into the quiet like itâs unsure of its place.
âno judgment here, love. everyone has their reasons.â your response is soft, easy, laced with practiced charm. but something about her feels different.
âi donât even know mine.â
the line falls into silence again, thick and heavy, broken only by the sound of her breathingâsteady, almost meditative. itâs the kind of silence that feels like itâs waiting for you to fill it, but instead, you let it linger, listening.
âwhatâs your name?â
you blink, caught off guard. most callers donât ask that unless itâs part of the fantasy theyâre crafting. most donât care to know.
âwell, what do you want it to be?â you counter, your voice tipping into something playful.
she laughs softly, the sound low and throaty, curling through the line like smoke. âno, thatâs not what i asked. i wanna know your name.â
thereâs a pause as you weigh her words, the sincerity behind them.
âstar,â you say finally, keeping it professional, your tone steady. âyou can call me star.â
âwhatâs your real name?â
her question lands heavier than it should. itâs not forceful, not even intrusive. just curious. like sheâs asking for a story rather than a fact.
you hesitate, fingers tracing the edge of your desk absentmindedly. something about her voice makes you want to give in, but you push the temptation aside, slipping easily into deflection.
âyou know, most people donât ask me that,â you murmur. âthey usually want to know what i look like, what iâm wearing. things like that.â
âguess iâm not most people, then.â
âcome on, youâre telling me youâre not even a little curious?â
she chuckles, warm and low, the kind of laugh that sticks in your chest. âokay, iâll bite. what are you wearing, star?â
you smirk, leaning back in your chair as the city hums faintly through the open window.
âblue and black pajamasâ you reply, your tone light. âlace trim. very cute, if i do say so myself.â
âwhereâd you get it?â
âsome victoriaâs secret around my city. they were having a sale.â
âcute.â her voice dips, carrying a hint of a smile. ânow, back to my question.â
you roll your eyes, though thereâs no edge to it. sheâs persistent, youâll give her that.
âyouâre just gonna have to call me star. canât give you my name. not tonight, sorry sweetheart.â
âno, itâs okay.â she pauses, then repeats it, like sheâs trying it on. âwell, star.â thereâs something deliberate about the way she says it, slow and careful, testing its weight. âiâm billie.â
her name sits soft and sure in the air, settling between you like it belongs.
âyou seem like a billie.â
âdo i?â
âmhm,â you hum, leaning forward against the desk. âso, billie. what do you want to talk about?â
âhmm.â she draws the sound out thoughtfully, the silence stretching just long enough to make you wonder if sheâll answer. âwhy do you do this?â
the question hits you in a way you donât expect, cutting through the usual rhythm of calls. most people donât askâdonât even think to ask.
you consider lying, giving her something easy, but the weight of her question lingers, tugging at the edges of your honesty.
âit pays the bills,â you admit finally, your voice soft. âand itâs not as bad as people think. i meet someâŚveryâŚinteresting people.â
âlike me?â
the corner of your mouth quirks up, her words pulling at something playful in you.
âyou tell me. are you interesting?â
âguess that depends.â she pauses, her voice curling with quiet amusement. âyou think iâm interesting so far?â
âso far? iâll give you a solid maybe.â
her laughter spills through the line, warm and unexpected, and it lingers in your room long after it fades.
âoh really? how long have you been doing this?â
âfor aboutâŚâ you pause, eyes flicking up to the ceiling like the answer might be scrawled there. âfor about a little over a year now.â
âdamn. thatâs a long ass time.â
you chuckle, the sound warm and easy. âit is, isnât it? i donât know, i donât mind it though. all i do is answer the phone. sometimes i do schoolwork, cookâsmall things like that. not like i necessarily have to be fully present for it, as long as iâm paying attention, you know?â
âyouâre in school? just exactly how old are you?â
âwaitâbefore we continue, youâre aware itâs a dollar seventy-five per minute, right?â
âuhh, i wasnât, but i donât mind it.â
âooh, so youâre rich then?â
she laughs, a low, honeyed sound that settles in your chest. âi wouldnât say that. iâd say iâm⌠comfortable.â
âonly rich people say theyâre comfortable. but to answer your question, iâm twenty, in my junior year. babe, you?â
âokay, not bad. iâm twenty-three. though i did think you were much older.â
you snort, rolling your eyes even though she canât see it. ânot bad? weâre practically the same age.â
âmm, i got about three years on you, so⌠no,â she laughs, her voice carrying a teasing lilt. âwhat are you majoring in?â
âcriminology. mainly forensics and things like that.â
âthatâs so fucking cool. so youâre like those people on tv who examine bodies and shit?â
âyeah, but doing it in real life is way different than it looks on tv.â you close your eyes, the memory of your first dissection flashing briefly. âespecially lab work. but you get used to it after a while.â
âstill, thatâs badass. you must be super smart.â
the compliment catches you off guard, heat crawling up your neck. âi guess you could say that,â you mutter, a quiet smile tugging at your lips.
the conversation flows easier after that, like water finding its way downhill. you donât even realize when youâve moved to your bed, your headset cast aside as her voice fills your room through the speaker.
she asks you everythingâyour favorite movies, the hobbies that keep you up at night, the kind of music that makes your soul hum. the questions are simple but intimate, slipping past your usual defenses like sheâs known you for years.
and you answer her. honestly, without hesitation. thereâs something about her voice, warm and unhurried, that pulls the truth out of you.
you find yourself smiling, more than you have in days, fingers absentmindedly playing with your hair as you lean into the sound of her. it feels oddly intimateâlike a late-night call with someone whoâs already carved out a space in your life.
âso,â she asks after a lull, her voice soft but curious, âwhatâs your favorite movie?â
you grin, closing your eyes as you let the answer roll off your tongue. âpulp fiction. itâs a classic, donât judge me.â
âno judgment. i respect it. but you gotta admit, itâs a little basic.â
âoh, and youâre not basic? let me guessâyouâre gonna say something artsy like âa clockwork orangeâ or whatever.â
âwrong. mineâs âthe shining.ââ
âoh, so youâre a horror girl. noted.â
she laughs, the sound warm and easy, and you realize you donât want the conversation to end. not yet. not with her voice lingering in your room like this.
âwhat about you?â you murmur, breaking the soft rhythm of silence that had settled between you.
âhm? what about me?â her voice lilts, curious but guarded.
âwhat do you do? like for work?â
thereâs a pause, long enough that you wonder if sheâs going to sidestep the question entirely. but then she exhales, the sound quiet, like sheâs carefully letting something go.
âiâm a musician,â she says finally, her words tentative, like they might break if handled too roughly. âor i guess i was⌠i teach music now.â
her admission catches you off guard, a flicker of something vulnerable passing through the connection. but you donât press her, sensing that whatever sheâs offering is enough for now. instead, you let the conversation drift, carried by the quiet ebb and flow of her voice.
the hours blur like watercolors, the world outside fading until thereâs only her.
eventually, her tone softens, the edges of her words rounding with sleep. âitâs getting late. i should let you go,â she murmurs, her voice barely above a whisper.
you glance at the alarm clock on the wall, the soft red digits blinking 3:35 a.m. back at you. exhaustion tugs at you, but the thought of ending the call feels heavier than it should.
âbutâŚâ her hesitation pulls you back to her. âcan i call you again? i had a really good time.â
your heart stumbles over itself, a small hitch in your chest. âyeah, of course you can.â your voice dips into something softer, something closer to truth. âi had a good time too.â
âgreat. goodnight, star.â thereâs a smile in her voice, light and unguarded, and it lingers in the air even after sheâs gone.
âgoodnight, billie.â
the line goes quiet, and for a moment, you sit there, the warmth of her voice still brushing against you like an afterglow.
you slip off your bed, padding into the bathroom to wash your face and brush your teeth. the cool water shocks your skin, but it doesnât chase away the heat curling low in your stomach.
when you return to your room, the lamp clicks off with a soft snap, plunging the space into shadows broken only by the shifting colors of your tv. you slide under the covers, the faint hum of a late-night rerun filling the silence. the images blur on the screen, but all you can think about is her voice, the way it clung to the edges of the night, soft and sure.
a ding pulls you from your thoughts. your phone glows faintly on the nightstand, and you reach for it, the sudden brightness making you blink.

you smile, the corners of your lips twitching up involuntarily. itâs nothing unusual, but tonight it feels different, lighter somehow. you turn the screen off and set the phone back down, a quiet sense of contentment settling over you.
for the first time in a long time, you find yourself looking forward to your next call.

MDNI18+MDNI18+MDNI18+MDNI18+MDNI18+
Youâd felt it creeping up on you for daysâa scratchy throat, a dull ache behind your eyes, and a fatigue that weighed heavier each morning. But you brushed it off. A cold wasnât going to stop you. Not when your team needed you.
It wasnât until todayâs training session that the sickness became impossible to ignore. Each step felt like trudging through quicksand, and your vision blurred as sweat beaded on your forehead. You pushed forward, determined not to falter, until your foot caught on uneven ground and you stumbled.
A strong hand caught your arm. You blinked up to see Price, his piercing gaze scanning your flushed face.
âRight, thatâs enough,â he said firmly. âOut with it. Whatâs going on?â
âNothing,â you croaked, your voice betraying you. âJust a little tired.â
Priceâs expression darkened. âDonât lie to me, love. Youâre burning up.â He pressed the back of his hand to your forehead and let out a low whistle. âBloody hell, youâve got a fever. Why the hell didnât you say anything?â
âI can handle it,â you protested weakly.
âHandle it?â Soapâs voice cut in as he approached, eyebrows raised. âYou look like youâve been hit by a truck, lass. Youâre handling nothing but bedrest from now on.â
Before you could argue, Ghost appeared silently at your side. His gloved hand replaced Priceâs on your forehead. He clicked his tongue in disapproval.
âYouâre a liability to yourself like this,â he said bluntly. âGet to bed before you collapse. Iâm not dragging your sorry arse off the floor.â
âIâm fine,â you insisted, though even to your own ears, the words sounded pathetic.
âEnough.â Priceâs tone brooked no argument. âSoap, take her to her quarters. Gaz, get some water and medicine. Ghost, youâre with meâweâll cover her workload for the day.â
Before you knew it, Soap was steering you back to your room, his arm a steadying presence. âYouâre lucky we like you, hen,â he teased, though his eyes were soft with concern. âOtherwise, Iâd leave you to learn your lesson the hard way.â
By the time you were tucked into bed, a wave of exhaustion washed over you, making it impossible to argue further.
---
The next few hours were a blur of fever dreams and muffled voices. Each time you stirred, one of them was there.
Price sat by your bedside, a warm mug of tea in his hands. âDrink,â he ordered gently, his tone softer than youâd ever heard. He waited patiently, his steady presence grounding you as you sipped.
Soap was a constant whirlwind of energy, refusing to let the atmosphere grow too heavy. âYâknow, I once caught a cold on a mission in Siberia,â he said, perched on the edge of your bed. âNearly froze my arse off. Thought Iâd lose my nose to frostbite.â His exaggerated tales pulled weak chuckles from you, and he grinned, satisfied.
Ghost was quieter, but no less attentive. He lingered in the corner of your room, his masked face unreadable, but his actions spoke volumes. He adjusted your blankets when you tossed them off, refilled your water without being asked, and made sure the room stayed cool to help bring down your fever. Once, you woke to find him sitting on the floor beside your bed, his hand resting lightly on your arm. The touch was brief, but it sent a wave of comfort through you.
And then there was Gaz, the self-proclaimed team medic for the day. He bustled in and out, armed with medicine and a determined expression. âTake these,â he instructed, handing you a handful of pills. When you hesitated, his brow furrowed. âDonât make me pin you down, because I will.â His fierce protectiveness made you smile, and you took the medicine without further protest.
---
Youâd hoped the worst was over, but as you sat up to sip the tea Price offered, a sudden wave of dizziness washed over you. The room spun, and nausea coiled tight in your stomach. You barely managed to set the mug down before leaning over the side of the bed.
âEasy, easy,â Price said quickly, his large hand resting on your back. He steadied you as you breathed heavily, fighting against the rising bile in your throat.
âSoap, get a bucket!â Price barked, his commanding tone snapping Soap out of his half-asleep state.
âOn it!â Soap scrambled to his feet and darted out of the room, returning moments later with a small bin. He handed it off to Price, who placed it in your lap just in time for you to heave into it.
âShh, youâre alright,â Price murmured, rubbing slow circles on your back. âLet it out, love. Youâll feel better soon.â
The nausea subsided after a few minutes, leaving you trembling and exhausted. Price set the bin aside, careful not to spill it, and handed you a damp cloth to wipe your mouth.
âSorry,â you croaked, your voice barely audible.
âNone of that,â Price replied firmly. âYouâve got nothing to apologize for. Weâre here for you.â
Soap crouched beside the bed, his brows drawn in concern. âPoor thing. Looks like itâs hitting you harder than we thought.â He reached for your hand, giving it a light squeeze. âDonât worryâweâll get you through this.â
Ghost silently pressed a cold compress to your forehead, his gloved hand steady. The coolness was a relief, but the pounding behind your eyes continued, relentless and sharp.
âHeadache?â Gaz asked, his voice soft.
âBad,â you whispered.
âAlright. Painkillers it is,â he said, heading for the door.
When he returned, he coaxed you into taking the pills with a few sips of water. âGood. Now close your eyes and rest,â he instructed.
---
The pounding in your head eased slightly as the day wore on, and the nausea subsided into a dull ache. Each time you woke, one of them was thereâPriceâs steady voice soothing you, Soapâs jokes lightening the mood, Ghostâs silent care easing the worst moments, and Gazâs gentle persistence ensuring you stayed hydrated and medicated.
When you finally woke the next morning, the sunlight no longer felt harsh, and your stomach was calm. You looked around to see all four of them still thereâPrice in a chair by the door, Soap curled up on the floor, Ghost leaning against the wall, and Gaz sprawled on the edge of your bed.
A soft smile tugged at your lips as you whispered, âThanks, guys.â
Price stirred, his sharp eyes meeting yours. âFeeling better?â
âMuch,â you admitted.
âGood,â he said, standing and stretching. âBut donât think for a second youâre jumping back into work. Youâre on bedrest until we say otherwise.â
Soap cracked an eye open and grinned. âAye, weâll pamper you whether you like it or not.â
âGet used to it,â Gaz added, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
Ghost didnât say anything, but his gloved hand briefly brushed your shoulder as he passed, a silent promise that theyâd always have your back.
For once, you didnât feel guilty about accepting their care. You knew they wouldnât have it any other way.
Hope you enjoyed! Please consider liking and reposting! -Midnightđ

I kind of need to see their reaction to the duchess mother insulting her-
I got this ask the same day I posted this, so Iâm pretty itâs related to that đââď¸
The air in the hall outside your bedroom is heavy, suffocating. The door is cracked open just enough for voices to slip through, sharp and cutting, each word a dagger that buries itself deeper into your heart.
Youâre curled in bed, the sheets twisted around you, your body frail and trembling under their weight. The room is dim, the curtains drawn to keep out the light, but it does nothing to hide the wreckage of your state- the unkempt hair, the tear-stained pillows, the hollow look in your eyes that even you can feel without needing to see.
And your mother doesnât care.
âLook at you,â she snaps, her heels clicking against the hardwood floor as she paces. âLying there like some pathetic, sniveling child. Is this what youâve let yourself become? No wonder your husband doesnât want you. Who in their right mind would?â
John freezes just outside the door. His breath catches, his hands curling into tight fists at his sides. Behind him, Simon, Johnny, and Kyle stop, their footsteps abruptly halting as they catch the sound of her voice.
Inside, you donât answer. You canât. Your throat feels raw from crying earlier, and the effort of defending yourself seems insurmountable.
âDo you know how humiliating this is for me?â Your motherâs voice rises, sharp and unforgiving, a screeching banshee. âTo have my daughter- a duchess, no less- reduced to this? Half-dead and wallowing in her own misery? I didnât raise you to be this weak.â
Simonâs jaw tightens, the muscle in his cheek twitching as he stares at the sliver of light of the moon spilling from your door. His breathing is slow, measured, but his fingers twitch at his sides, itching to do something, anything to stop this.
Johnnyâs expression twists, his lips parting as though heâs about to say something- to barge in, to end it- but Kyleâs hand on his shoulder stops him. Kyle doesnât look at him, though. He canât tear his eyes away from the shadow of your mother pacing inside the room, his knuckles tight where they grip the edge of his coat.
Your mother keeps going, undeterred by your silence.
âItâs no wonder no one comes to you,â she spits. âWhy would they? Look at yourself. Wasting away like this. No dignity. No pride. How do you expect anyone to love you if you canât even bother to act like someone worth loving?â
The words hit harder than any slap, and the quiet, broken sound you make in response has Johnny stepping forward before he can stop himself. Kyle yanks him back, his grip iron-tight, but Johnnyâs trembling, his whole body thrumming with the need to move- to pull her out of there, to make her stop.
John says nothing, but his silence is louder than any outburst. He stands rigid, shoulders squared, eyes dark and unreadable as he stares through the crack in the door.
Inside, you flinch as your motherâs heels come to a stop beside the bed.
âPathetic,â she says again, quieter this time but no less digging. âYou should be grateful he hasnât thrown you out yet. Maybe he should have. Maybe then youâd finally pull yourself together.â
Kyleâs grip falters, and Johnnyâs nails dig into his palms.
Simon exhales slowly, the sound sharp and dangerous.
And John- John turns and walks away, his footsteps heavy against the marble floors. He doesnât say a word, doesnât look at the others as he passes. But the set of his shoulders, the tension in his spine, says enough.
Heâs going to fix this. He needs to fix this.
Even if itâs far too late to undo whatâs already been done.
The others linger for only a moment longer, torn between the urge to barge in and the weight of their own guilt keeping them rooted to the spot. Eventually, though, they follow John, leaving you alone with your motherâs words echoing in the suffocating silence.
And you?
You curl deeper into the bed, pulling the blankets over your head as if that might be enough to drown it all out.
Itâs not.

ŕŠâŠ Street Rat p4âŠŕŠ
word count: 8.5K (someone please kill me, my fingers are cramping)
A/N: can yall tell I love making SR and Sevika interact like an old married couple that should've gotten divorced years ago? haha, no? just me? okay-
warnings: descriptions of blood, trauma, implied self harm
ŕŠâŠâ§âËŕźşâŕźťŕŠâŠâ§âË
You werenât sure why you were so desperate to find Sevika, you didnât like her like that, you didnât like her period, but something was tugging at you to look for her.
She had fed you, patched you up many more times than youâd like to admit, helped you at your absolute worst, you felt like you at least owed her the decency to look for her, to worry about her.
You wandered the streets of the Undercity, looking down the quieter alleyways, looking into what you thought were abandoned buildings before getting chased out by random punks.
âAnd stay out you little Rat!â A woman hissed as you sprinted down the street, panting heavily, not daring to look back before you ran into something, or someone.
You fall to the ground with a soft thud, letting out a quiet âoofâ before looking up to see Sevika watching you with keen, amused eyes.
âYou just donât know how to stay out of trouble do you?â She hummed thoughtfully, helping you up with her flesh hand.
She looked different, hair cut shorter, a piercing, and-
Tired.
âYou lookâŚâ you trailed off, Sevika rolling her eyes slightly before crossing her arms, âdifferent?â She questioned.
ââŚyeah,â you replied, not the words you were planning to say, but pretty much.
Pretty, thatâs what you wanted to say, what sat at the tip of your tongue, but you swallowed the word, clearing your throat awkwardly.
Sevika raised an eyebrow at you, the corner of her mouth twitching with mild amusement. âWhat are you doing out here?â she asked, her voice low and gravelly. âShouldnât you be holed up somewhere safe, minding your own business?â
You dusted yourself off, avoiding her piercing gaze. âI could say the same to you,â you muttered, refusing to admit how relieved you were to see her. âYouâve been gone for⌠what, weeks? No word, no nothing. People started saying you were dead.â
Sevika snorted, the sound rough and dismissive. âDead? Do I look dead to you?â She gestured to herself with her metal arm, her new piercing catching the dim light of the Undercity streets.
âNo,â you said quietly, glancing her over again. Her sharp features looked harder somehow, the dark circles under her eyes a testament to long nights and rough days. âBut you do look⌠different.â
Sevikaâs lips quirked into something that wasnât quite a smile. âYou already said that,â she pointed out dryly. She stepped back and leaned against the wall, arms crossed over her broad chest. âWhat do you want, kid?â
You faltered, your carefully rehearsed words slipping through your fingers like sand. âI⌠just wanted to make sure you were okay. You were gone so long, and youâve⌠helped me. A lot. I figured I owed you.â
Her expression softened for a brief moment, though she quickly masked it with a grunt. âDidnât think anyone would notice, let alone care,â she admitted, her tone more subdued.
âWell, I did,â you said firmly, stepping closer. âSo? Where the hell have you been?â
âBusy,â she replied vaguely, her gaze flickering away. âWork. Stuff like that.â
âWork?â you pressed, sensing she wasnât giving you the full truth. âWhat kind of work?â
Sevikaâs jaw clenched, her patience visibly fraying as you kept pushing. âDrop it,â she muttered, her voice sharp enough to cut. But you didnâtâcouldnât. Â
âYou always brush people off like this? Or just me?â you snapped, anger bubbling in your chest. âYou disappear for weeks, come back looking like youâve been through hell, and Iâm supposed to just let it go?â Â
Her glare darkened, the veins in her temple throbbing. âI said drop it!â she barked, the deep growl of her voice reverberating through the alley. Â
âWhy? So you can keep everything bottled up until it kills you?â The words tumbled out before you could stop them, your frustration overriding your common sense. âMaybe I care, Sevika! Ever think of that?â Â
Her flesh hand clenched into a fist, her whole body coiled like a spring about to snap. âShut up,â she hissed, stepping closer. Â
But you didnât. You couldnât stop. âYou act like you donât need anyone, like you can just handle everything aloneââ Â
The swing came faster than you could register. Her metal fist didnât hit you, but her flesh hand did, hard enough to knock you off your feet. Â
Your back hit the ground with a jarring thud, the metallic taste of blood flooding your mouth as you felt your nose start to bleed. For a moment, the world blurred, the pounding in your head drowning out everything else. Â
When your vision cleared, you looked up at her, hand pressed against your nose. Her expression wasnât triumphant, or even angry anymore. Â
It was horrified. Â
She froze, her lips slightly parted as her gaze locked on yours. And there it was: fear. In your eyes, wide and scared, as if sheâd morphed into a monster right in front of you. Â
It was like she was seeing it for the first time, and it shattered something deep inside her. Â
âI didnât mean toâŚâ she muttered, her voice trembling, barely audible. Â
You scrambled to your feet, keeping a cautious distance, your heart hammering in your chest. âYou⌠you fucking hit me,â you stammered, wiping at the blood trickling from your nose. Â
Sevika didnât say anything. She just stared at her hand, the one that struck you, like it belonged to someone else entirely. Â
âIs this what you are now?â you asked, your voice wavering. âI come out here, looking your to make sure you're okay and not dead in a ditch- and you⌠â Â
Her head snapped up, the guilt etched deep into her features. âNo,â she said hoarsely, taking a step back. âI⌠I didnât mean it. I wasnâtââ Â
âWasnât thinking?â you finished for her, your anger and hurt clashing violently in your chest. âYeah, no kidding.â Â
âIâm sorry,â she whispered, the words sounding foreign and unnatural coming from her lips. Â
For a moment, the two of you just stood there, the tension thick and suffocating. You wanted to scream, to demand answers, but the look on her face silenced you. Â
âI shouldnât have come looking for you,â you muttered, stepping back further. âClearly, I was wrong.â Â
She didnât stop you as you turned to leave, but her voice followed you, quiet and broken. âWait.â Â
You didnât.
â
Stupid.
Stupid.
Stupid.
Your balled fist hit against your head again, you knew better, knew better than to trust anyone, to rely on anyone, it was your own damn fault you were in this mess.
stupid.
Sevika had even warned you, told you to leave her alone, that you weren't going to be safe, that you were just going to get yourself hurt again.
stupid.
You staggered down the empty street, your own ragged breaths and muffled sniffles the only sounds echoing in the night. The sting of your bleeding nose was nothing compared to the ache in your chest. Â
Stupid. Â
Your balled fist hit the side of your head again, harder this time. Â
You shouldâve listened. You shouldâve known better. Sevika wasnât a safe placeâshe never was. She was a storm, violent and unpredictable, and you were the fool who thought you could stand in the middle of it without getting torn apart. Â
Stupid. Â
Another hit to your head, frustration bubbling over into self-directed rage. This was your fault. All of it. You shouldnât have gone looking for her. You shouldnât have cared. You shouldnât haveâ Â
You stopped dead in your tracks, leaning against the brick wall of an abandoned building, sliding down until you were crouched on the ground. The weight of it all crashed over you, a suffocating tidal wave of anger and shame. Â
Sevika warned you. She told you to stay away, told you what would happen. And you, in your desperate, naive need to feel⌠what? Important? Connected? You ignored her. Â
Your fists clenched, nails digging into your palms as tears pricked at your eyes. You werenât going to cry. You didnât deserve to cry. Â
You tilted your head back, staring up at the polluted sky of the Undercity, the faint glow of lights barely breaking through the haze. Â
âStupid,â you muttered again, voice cracking. You wrapped your arms around yourself, squeezing tight, as if trying to hold all your broken pieces together. Â
This was your mess. Your pain. And youâd deal with it, like you always did. Alone.Â
Thatâs what you always did. Â
Life slipped back into the routine of survival, the kind of existence that didnât leave room for anything soft or sentimental. The bruises on your face faded, but the ache beneath them stayed, buried deep where no one could see. Â
You spent your nights fighting in the back alleys for scraps of money, fists flying as blood and sweat mixed with the grime of the Undercity streets. The thrill of it was a distraction, a way to quiet the noise in your head. And when that wasnât enough, you stoleâfood, trinkets, anything you could get your hands on. Â
The people you stole from didnât matter. Maybe they deserved it; maybe they didnât. It didnât make a difference to you. Thatâs how it was down hereâeveryone clawing to take what little they could, stepping on anyone who got in their way. Â
You were no different. Â
A street rat. Thatâs all you were, all you ever would be. Not someoneâs child, not someoneâs friend, not someoneâs anything. Rats didnât belong to anyoneâthey scurried, they scavenged, and they survived. Â
And that was enough, wasnât it? Â
The thought lingered as you huddled in the corner of a dimly lit alley, clutching a half-eaten loaf of bread youâd swiped earlier. The warmth of it had long since faded, just like everything else. Â
It was enough. It had to be. Because hope was a luxury for people who didnât live with dirt under their nails and blood on their hands. Â
And you didnât have the luxury of being anything but a rat.
You watched as a group of younger kids giggled and laughed, their voices echoing faintly down the alley as they ran past you. They clutched makeshift toys in their small handsâscraps of wood tied together, a dented tin can, things theyâd probably cobbled together themselves. Â
You frowned, pulling your knees closer to your chest as you sat against the cold, damp wall. They were so loud, so carefree, their laughter grating against the silence youâd grown used to. You shouldâve hated them for it, envied the spark of innocence they still had in this pit of a place. But all you felt was an ache. Â
This wasnât the world kids like them should be growing up in. They deserved warm homes, full bellies, and safetyânot these streets that swallowed people whole. Not this cold, dangerous place where every smile felt borrowed, fleeting. Â
But that wasnât the world they got. Â
Just like it hadnât been the world youâd gotten. Â
You shifted, looking down at your battered boots. They werenât much better off than those kids, you realized. Maybe younger, but not safer. Not really. They didnât know yet what these streets could do to them, how they could chew them up and spit them out. Â
And a bitter part of you thought maybe it was better they didnât. Â
You sighed, rubbing at your arms to keep the cold from seeping in too much. Those kids werenât your problem. You didnât have the energy to care about anyone else. Not anymore. Â
But as one of the kids tripped and fell, scraping their knee, you found yourself moving before you could think. Â
You stood, walking toward them slowly. The little boy sat there sniffling, trying to hold back tears as the others circled him, unsure of what to do. Â
âYou good, kid?â you asked, your voice low and gruff, startling them. Â
The boy looked up at you, wide-eyed, his lip trembling. âI-Iâm fine,â he mumbled, clearly lying. Â
You crouched down in front of him, your gaze softening despite yourself. âLemme see.â Â
He hesitated, then reluctantly showed you his scraped knee, blood trickling down his skinny leg. It wasnât anything serious, but it was enough to sting. Â
âHang tight,â you said, pulling a strip of cloth from your pocket. You wrapped it around his knee with surprising gentleness, tying it off. âThere. Good as new.â Â
The boy blinked up at you, his tears slowing as he gave a small, hesitant smile. âThanksâŚâ Â
You stood up, brushing your hands off on your pants. âDonât mention it.â Â
As you walked away, you could hear them whispering behind you, their voices filled with wonder. Â
âWho was that?â Â
âDunno, but theyâre cool!â Â
You shook your head, shoving your hands deep into your pockets as you disappeared down another alley. Â
âStupid,â you muttered under your breath again, the word sticking to your tongue like tar. You werenât supposed to care. Â
But you did.
You found yourself helping out the smaller people, not necessarily kids or older people but people who were like you, desperate, barely scraping by..
It started smallâhanding off scraps of food you didnât need, pointing someone toward a safer place to sleep, helping a desperate soul avoid a fight they couldnât win. You told yourself it wasnât a big deal, that you werenât trying to be anything to anyone. But somewhere along the way, people started noticing. Â
Not the big players in the Undercity, of course. They didnât care about people like you, scraping by on crumbs. But the smaller peopleâthe desperate ones, the ones who lived and died in the shadowsâthey noticed. Â
And then came the kids. Â
You didnât know when it happened, but suddenly, there was always a small cluster of them following you around. Wide-eyed and full of questions, they trailed behind like ducklings, giggling and whispering to each other. Â
âIs it true you beat up three guys at once last week?â one of them asked, his eyes shining with admiration. Â
âNo, it was five,â another kid chimed in, puffing up his chest like heâd seen you do once. âI heard they were twice as big as you, too!â Â
You snorted, shaking your head as you walked. âIt was one guy, and he was drunk off his ass. Hardly a fair fight.â Â
But they didnât care about the truth. To them, you were a legendâsomeone who fought back against the unfairness of the Undercity and lived to tell the tale. Â
âWhatâs it like being the coolest person in the Undercity?â one of the youngest kids asked, skipping alongside you with a toothy grin. Â
âDunno,â you replied with a smirk, ruffling his messy hair. âYou tell me when you meet them.â Â
That earned a chorus of laughter, and for a moment, you forgot about the cold and the hunger and the weight that constantly pressed on your shoulders. For a moment, it felt⌠good. Â
But then the reality of it all crept back in. You werenât a hero. You werenât even a good person. You were just a rat, doing what rats did best: surviving. Â
Still, when one of the kids tugged on your sleeve and asked if youâd show them how to throw a proper punch, you sighed and crouched down, holding out your hands to demonstrate. Â
âAlright, listen up,â you said, your tone gruff but not unkind. âIf youâre gonna do it, do it right. Thumb outside the fist, or youâll break it on the first swing.â Â
The kids watched you with rapt attention, mimicking your movements, their laughter filling the air. Â
You told yourself it didnât mean anything. That you were just killing time. Â
But deep down, you knew better.
âDo you know Sevika?â one little girl asked, her eyes shining bright with curiosity.
The question hit you like a punch to the gut, and for a moment, you froze. The little girl stared up at you with wide, curious eyes, her excitement barely contained. Â
âSevika?â you repeated, forcing your voice to stay steady as your stomach twisted itself into knots. âWhat makes you ask that?â Â
The girl shrugged, clutching a worn doll tightly to her chest. âSome people said youâre like her. Tough and strong. That you help people like she used to.â Â
Your chest tightened, and you fought to keep your expression neutral. âI donât know about that,â you muttered, looking away. Â
You wanted to lie, to say you didnât know who Sevika was, to brush it off like it meant nothing. But you couldnât. Her name alone brought everything rushing backâthe nights you spent following her, trying to understand why you cared so much, why she mattered to you. Â
And how it all came crashing down the moment she showed you exactly who she was. Â
âDid she help you too?â the girl asked innocently, her voice tugging at something raw and vulnerable inside you. Â
You swallowed hard, your fists clenching at your sides. âNot in the way you think,â you said quietly. Â
The kids around you fell silent, sensing the shift in your mood. Even the little girl seemed to understand sheâd touched on something she shouldnât have. Â
âForget about Sevika,â you said, your voice sharper than you intended. âSheâs not someone you want to be like.â Â
The girl frowned, her grip on her doll tightening. âBut I thought she was a hero.â Â
You let out a bitter laugh, shaking your head. âSheâs no hero. And neither am I.â Â
The words tasted sour on your tongue, and you hated how much truth they held. You turned away, pretending to adjust the wrappings on your hands, anything to avoid their questioning eyes. Â
âLetâs get moving,â you said gruffly, motioning for them to follow. âItâs not safe to stand around here.â Â
As the kids fell into step behind you, their chatter picking up again, you tried to push the thoughts of Sevika out of your head. But her name lingered like a ghost, haunting you with every step you took.
âÂ
You hated it. The way your chest only loosened when you saw those kids step inside their makeshift homes, doors closing behind them, locking out the dangers of the Undercityâfor now. Â
You hated the way your ears strained for any sign of trouble, ready to step in, ready to fight, even when you told yourself you wouldnât. Â
You werenât a hero. You werenât a savior. Hell, if that little girl had asked about Sevika again, you mightâve snapped at her, mightâve said something cruel enough to shut her up for good. Â
Not that you actually wouldâve hurt her. You werenât that far goneâyet. Â
But it made you sick, the thought of anyone seeing you as something good. Someone to look up to. You were no oneâs safety, no oneâs home, no oneâs hero. You were justâyou. Â
A street rat. A survivor. Â
And survivors didnât make promises. They didnât stick around. Â
Still, as you stood alone in the dim light of the alley, you couldnât help but glance back one last time. Just to be sure.
âI never thought Iâd see you go soft,â a voice piped up, making you turn around, body tensing almost immediately as you looked around, trying to pinpoint the source of the voice.
Thatâs when you saw her again-
Sevika.
The woman who had taken you in more or less, taken care of you, made sure you knew when and where not to go.
Just for her to rip it all away in one night.Â
Your breath caught in your throat, muscles coiling tight as your eyes locked onto her. Â
Sevika. Â
She leaned casually against the brick wall, her metal arm glinting faintly in the dim light. Her short hair framed her sharp features, and that same unreadable expression lingered on her faceâthe one that always made it impossible to tell if she was amused or annoyed. Â
She looked exactly like you remembered. And yet, somehow, worse. Tired. Hardened. But no less dangerous. Â
You swallowed hard, trying to keep your voice steady even as your pulse hammered in your ears. âWhat the hell do you want?â Â
Her lips twitched, just barely hinting at a smirk. âRelax. Iâm not here to pick a fight.â Â
You scoffed, folding your arms across your chest as if that would somehow shield you from the weight of her presence. âCouldâve fooled me.â Â
Sevika pushed off the wall, taking a slow step closer. It wasnât a threat, not exactlyâbut it didnât feel safe either. âI was just passing through,â she said, her voice low, gravelly. âDidnât expect to find you playing babysitter.â Â
Your jaw tightened. âIâm not playing anything.â Â
âNo?â Her gaze flicked toward the alley where the kids had disappeared, then back to you. âSure looks like it.â Â
Your fingers twitched, itching for a weaponâsomething to hold between you and her. Not because you thought sheâd attack. But because you didnât trust yourself not to let her get under your skin. Not again. Â
âWhy are you here, Sevika?â you asked, cutting through the tension with as much venom as you could muster. âLast I checked, you were done with me.â Â
Her expression shifted, something almost like regret flashing in her eyes before it was gone, buried under that cold exterior. âYou wouldnât let it go,â she said quietly. âI told you to stay away. Told you itâd get you hurt.â Â
You took a step forward, the anger that had been simmering for months finally bubbling over. âAnd you think this is better?â you snapped, gesturing at the empty alley, at the scraps of a life youâd been barely holding together. âYou think walking away without a wordâwithout even explainingâwas better?â Â
Sevika didnât flinch, but her jaw set tightly. âIt was the only way to keep you safe.â Â
âBullshit.â Â
Your voice echoed off the walls, and for a moment, the two of you just stood there, staring each other down like opponents waiting for the first punch to land. Â
But it never did. Â
Instead, Sevika let out a breath, her shoulders sagging just slightly. âYou donât get it,â she muttered, more to herself than to you. âYou never did.â Â
And maybe you didnât. Maybe you never would. Â
But as much as you hated herâhated what sheâd done, how sheâd leftâyou hated the way her words still made your heart ache even more.Â
âNo,â you snapped, making Sevika's eyes narrow slightly.
âYou donât get it, do you know how much Iâve been risking nowadays? Giving away my hard earned food, taking care of kids that arenât mine, teaching them how to protect themselves, using my supplies to cover up scrapes and cuts. I have these horrible fucking dreams Sevika, horrible horrible dreams, every time a lay down my head to rest or even just to let it relax all I can fucking hear is screaming. My sisters crying while they burned alive, my mother calling out to me like she knew what was happening. Do you ever hear that? Do you have to deal with that day in and day out?â
Sevika was tense, not meeting your eyes as you continued on.
âDo you ever hear them?â Your voice cracked, but you didnât care. The words poured out, raw and unfiltered, the dam youâd built up for so long finally breaking. âDo you have to deal with that day in and day out, Sevika? Because I do. Every fucking day.â
Sevika stayed silent, her gaze fixed on the ground. Her jaw was clenched so tightly you could see the muscle twitch, but she didnât interrupt. She just stood there, her shoulders stiff, her hands twitching at her sides.
âI try to forget,â you continued, your voice rising with every word. âI try to drown it out with fights, with work, with anything. But it never goes away. And then you come along, acting like youâre doing me a favor by walking away? Like leaving me behind was some kind of mercy?â
You laughed bitterly, the sound echoing hollowly in the empty alley. âYou donât get to decide that. You donât get to act like you know whatâs best for me.â
Sevikaâs head snapped up at that, her eyes sharp and stormy as they locked onto yours. âAnd you think youâre better off with me?â she growled, the edge in her voice cutting through the tension like a knife. âYou think sticking around me wouldâve made your life easier? Safer?â
âI donât know, Sevika!â you shot back, your fists clenching. âBut you donât get to rip everything away without even giving me a choice! You donât get to decide Iâm not worth the risk!â
The words hung heavy in the air, both of you breathing hard, the weight of the conversation pressing down like a storm ready to break.
Sevika looked at you, really looked at you, and for a moment, you thought you saw something crack in her cold, impenetrable armor. Something vulnerable, something almost human.
âYou donât understand,â she said finally, her voice quieter, almost hoarse. âItâs not about you not being worth it. Itâs about me⌠not being enough.â
Her words stunned you, the anger in your chest wavering for just a moment.
âYou think I donât care?â she continued, her gaze hard but her voice trembling just slightly. âYou think I donât hear the screams, too? That I donât see the faces of the people I couldnât save, the ones I left behind? I walk through hell every day, just like you. The difference is, I made my peace with it a long time ago. I donât deserve peace. I donât deserveâŚâ
Her voice trailed off, but the implication hung heavy in the air.
You didnât know whether to scream at her or cry. Instead, you took a step closer, your voice softer but no less determined.
âAnd you think I donât feel the same?â you asked, your tone low and raw. âYou think I donât carry that same weight? That same guilt? You donât get to decide what I deserve, Sevika. You donât get to decide for me.â
For the first time in what felt like forever, Sevika didnât have a response. She just stood there, staring at you with something unreadable in her eyes, her hands curling into fists at her sides.
The silence stretched between you, heavy and suffocating, until finally, Sevika let out a long, shaky breath.
âYouâre a stubborn little shit,â she muttered, the faintest hint of a smirk tugging at the corner of her lips.
âYeah,â you replied, your voice steadier now. âAnd youâre a coward.â
Her smirk faltered, but she didnât deny it. Instead, she took a step back, her gaze lingering on you for a moment longer before she turned away.
âGet some rest,â she said over her shoulder, her voice gruff but softer than before. âYouâre no good to anyone running on empty.â
But the weight of her presence lingered, and for the first time in a long while, it felt like the cracks in your armor werenât just breaking you apartâthey were letting something in.
You hated that you wanted to call out to hear, to tell her to wait, to ask her to stay with you- you shouldn't.
âSevika?â Your voice was soft, unsure, but Sevika looked back at you, raising an eyebrow in response.
You should've said never mind, or Don't get hurt without me, but against your better judgementâ
âDo youââ god this was pathetic, âhave anything to do tonight..?âÂ
Sevika stopped mid-step, her broad frame outlined by the dim glow of the streetlamp. She turned her head slightly, her eyebrow still raised, but her expression unreadable.
You wanted to shrink back, to swallow the words, to act like you hadnât said anything. But it was too late. They hung in the air, vulnerable and raw, impossible to take back.
âDo I have anything to do tonight?â she repeated, her voice low and measured, as if trying to make sense of your question.
You shifted on your feet, suddenly regretting every choice that had led you to this moment. âForget it,â you muttered, looking down at the cracked pavement. âItâs stupid.â
Sevika didnât move for a moment, her silence stretching out uncomfortably. Then, with a quiet sigh, she turned fully to face you, crossing her arms over her chest.
âI donât have time for games, kid,â she said, her tone sharper now. âIf youâve got something to say, say it.â
You bit your lip, weighing your options. You could shut up, let her walk away, and go back to your miserable little routine. Or you could take the riskâthe one that had been gnawing at you since the moment you saw her again.
âDo you⌠want to get a drink?â you finally blurted out, your voice cracking slightly at the end. âOrâsomething. I donât know. Just⌠talk?â
Her eyebrows shot up, and for a second, you thought she might laugh in your face. But instead, she studied you, her gaze sharp and calculating, as though she were trying to decide if this was some kind of trap.
âYou want to talk,â she said slowly, her voice laced with disbelief.
You nodded, swallowing the lump in your throat. âYeah. I mean⌠we never did, right? Not really.â
Sevika tilted her head, her metal fingers drumming against her arm as she considered you. Finally, she let out a low chuckleâmore of a breath than a laughâand shook her head.
âYouâre full of surprises,â she muttered.
âSo⌠is that a yes?â you pressed, trying not to sound too hopeful.
She hesitated, her expression unreadable. Then, with a small shrug, she nodded toward a dimly lit bar at the end of the street.
âFine,â she said gruffly. âOne drink. Donât make me regret it.â
You felt your chest loosen, the tension easing just slightly as you nodded and fell into step beside her.
It wasnât much, but it was a start.
â
You werenât sure why you found yourself sitting down at a bar with Sevika, trying to avoid talking to her by slowly drinking your vodka, the liquid burning your throat as you swallowed.
You let out a soft groan, nose scrunching at the burning sensation that you couldnât get rid of as quickly as youâd hope.Â
âSo,â Sevika hummed, setting down her cup as she cleared her throat, the rough sound catching your attention mid-swallow. âYou never really talk about yourself, well you do, a lot actuallyââ she corrects herself, making you chuckle softly as you set your own cup down.
âI mean more so where you came from,â Sevika muttered, resting her flesh forearm on the counter, âyou donât scream âHey I was born in the Undercityâ like most of us.â
You paused, staring into the bottom of your glass before swirling what little liquid was left inside. Sevikaâs words echoed in your head, her observation cutting deeper than you cared to admit.
âDoes it matter?â you finally muttered, your voice quieter than you intended.
Sevika leaned in slightly, resting her elbow on the bar as her eyes stayed locked on you. âIf it didnât, I wouldnât have asked,â she replied.
You let out a small, bitter laugh. âI donât know if I should be flattered or suspicious.â
She smirked, but there was something softer behind it. âMaybe both.â
You sighed, knowing you wouldnât get out of this without saying something realâsomething you hadnât shared with anyone in a long time.
âI wasnât born here,â you admitted, shifting uncomfortably on the barstool. âNot in the Undercity, at least.â
Sevika didnât say anything, but the flicker of curiosity in her eyes told you she was listening.
âMy family⌠we lived closer to the surface. Not Piltover exactly, but better off than here.â You paused, fingers tightening around the glass. âIt didnât last.â
Sevika raised an eyebrow, but she didnât interrupt.
âMy fatherâhe gambled. Drank. Made enemies.â You swallowed, the memories stirring like dust in your chest. âAnd when the debts piled too high, when they finally came to collect, we lost everything.â
You shook your head, forcing down the lump rising in your throat.
âDid you hear about the fire around 19 years ago? Whole neighborhood burnt down, barely any survivors,â you hummed gently, not daring to meet her eyes, Sevika humming softly in response.
Sevikaâs expression hardened, her eyes narrowing slightly. She knew the story, or at least pieces of it. Everyone in the Undercity had heard rumors about the fire. But hearing you say itâconnecting yourself to that tragedyâshifted something in the air between you.
âYeah,â she said quietly, her voice gruffer than usual. âI heard.â
You nodded, swallowing hard as you pushed past the lump in your throat. âThat was my neighborhood. My family.â
Sevikaâs gaze lingered on you, unblinking and sharp, but she didnât press. She let the weight of your words settle.
âThere was nothing left,â you continued, your voice hollow. âThe ones who survived⌠we scattered. Some made it out of the Undercity entirely. Some didnât.â
Sevika didnât move, didnât speak, but the flicker in her eyes betrayed her thoughts. She understood loss. Maybe too well.
âI came here because it was the only place left,â you said, swirling the last drops of your drink. âI thought maybe I could disappear. Start over. But you donât really get to do that, do you?â
Sevika finally broke her silence, her voice low and steady. âNo. You donât.â
For a moment, the two of you just sat there, the hum of the bar around you fading into the background.
âSo thatâs it?â Sevika asked after a beat. âYouâve been running ever since?â
You shrugged, a bitter smile tugging at your lips. âWhat else is there to do?â
Sevika leaned back, her metal arm resting against the counter with a faint clink. âYou fight,â she said simply.
You snorted. âFight for what? This place?â
âFor yourself,â Sevika replied, her gaze steady. âFor the people who canât.â
You blinked at her, caught off guard by the conviction in her voice. It was different from the Sevika you thought you knewâthe woman who pushed people away, who acted like she didnât care.
âDonât act like youâre not already doing it,â she added, nodding toward the alley youâd been watching earlier. âThose kids? Theyâre looking at you like youâre their savior, whether you like it or not.â
Your chest tightened, and you looked away. âIâm not anyoneâs savior,â you grumbled, swirling your glass again.
âThatâs what I thought too, for a long time,â Sevika replied, her eyes softening, her words seeming to bring back memories or talks she had. âI was raised to be tough, never be soft, donât let anyone take advantage of you,â she muttered, âI guess it worked per say, Iâm feared, respected, all things you want to be in a place like this.â
You watch as her shoulders sag slightly, exhaling heavily as her eyes closed for a moment, âbut I lose people, people who didnât deserve to be in a place like this, people who made mistakes but I was lucky enough to see what was behind the masks they wore.â
Sevikaâs words hung in the air, heavy and raw, like a wound laid bare. Youâd never heard her talk like thisânever seen her drop the armor she always carried. And yet, here she was, letting you glimpse something deeper. Something real.
You swallowed, the lump in your throat growing harder to ignore. âAnd did it help?â you asked quietly. âBeing tough? Pushing people away?â
Her eyes snapped back to yours, sharp but not unkind. âSometimes,â she admitted. âBut mostly? It just made it easier to pretend I didnât care when I did.â
The confession struck a nerve, and you felt your walls starting to crack. Youâd spent so long convincing yourself that caring was weaknessâthat survival meant keeping your distance. But was it really any better than being alone?
âSo what changed?â you asked, your voice barely above a whisper.
Sevika let out a dry chuckle, though there was no humor in it. âI lost too much,â she said simply. âKept telling myself it wasnât my fault, that this placeâthis lifeâwasnât meant for happy endings.â
She paused, her gaze flickering toward you. âBut then you showed up.â
Your breath caught. âMe?â
âYouâre stubborn. Reckless. You donât know when to back down, even when you should,â Sevika said, her lips curving into something that almost resembled a smile. âAnd you remind me of someone I used to be.â
You blinked, unsure whether to take her words as a compliment or a warning. Maybe both.
âIs that a good thing..?â You ask, your head tilting with the question.
Sevika smiled, not a big one or for long, but it was a genuine smile, with the way that the corners of her eyes crinkled and how her slightly chapped lips seemed to stretch with the actâ your heart buzzing slightly at the sight.
âDepends on who you ask I guess, if you ask me, itâs the worst possible thing to happen to me, Iâve got a street Rat stuck on me like itâs caught in a trap, and yet you keep trying to get that cheese that you think is there.â
You couldnât help the laugh that escaped you, soft but real, the tension in your chest easing just a little. âWell, maybe the cheese is worth it,â you shot back, your lips curving into a smirk.
Sevika raised an eyebrow, her smile fading but her amusement lingering in her eyes. âYou think so? Even knowing the trap could snap any second?â
You shrugged, leaning back on your stool. âLifeâs full of traps. If youâre too scared to take a chance, youâll never get anywhere.â
Her expression shifted, her gaze lingering on you for a moment longer than felt comfortable. It wasnât judgmental or coldâit was something closer to respect, though Sevika would probably never admit it outright.
âBrave or stupid,â she muttered, shaking her head.
âProbably both,â you admitted with a grin, raising your glass to finish the last drop of vodka.
For a moment, the two of you just sat there, the hum of the bar wrapping around you like a threadbare blanket. It wasnât much, but it was enough to make you feel⌠not alone.
âAs much as a pain in the ass you tend to be,â Sevika sighed, âI have to admit you seem to at least have a brain in your skull,â smirking softly as you roll your eyes.
You lift your glass to your lips, swallowing down the rest of the vodka, trying your best not to let it show that you hated the sting of it falling down your throat. As you exhale, setting your empty glass down on the counter you glance at Sevika, taking in how much more relaxed she looks. Her shoulders donât sit as squared as they used to, her sharp and cold eyes seem to have melted a bit.
You couldnât help but let your gaze linger, studying the woman beside you. This was Sevika, the same woman who had pushed you away without a second thought, who had built walls so high even you couldnât see over them. And yet here she wasâsoftened, even if just slightly, by the fragile truce between you.
âYou know,â you started, your voice light but tinged with sincerity, âI didnât think Iâd ever see you like this.â
Sevika raised an eyebrow, though there was a faint smirk tugging at her lips. âLike what?â
âRelaxed. Human,â you said, leaning your elbow on the bar as you turned to face her more fully.
She let out a dry chuckle, shaking her head. âDonât get used to it, kid. This place has a way of reminding you why you canât stay soft for long.â
âMaybe,â you replied, your tone thoughtful. âBut isnât it exhausting? Always keeping people at armâs length?â
Sevika didnât answer right away, her gaze shifting to her metal arm as she flexed the fingers absently. âIt is,â she admitted quietly. âBut itâs safer that way.â
âFor who?â you asked, your voice barely above a whisper.
Her eyes snapped back to yours, sharp and guarded, but you held her gaze. For a moment, you thought she might shut you down, might throw up the same walls she always did. But instead, she sighed, her shoulders sagging slightly.
âFor everyone,â she said.
âThat's a load of bull,â you scoff, Sevika sighed begrudgingly as she shook her head. âLook, Sevika, I get it, you're a big and tough woman, you've gotta keep that exterior appearance sharp and cleanââ you sigh, âbut at least try and relax and be genuine with me? Come on, I was nice to you before you even had a chance. I'm ruining my reputation here,â you whine half heartedly.
Sevika let out a dry laugh, her lips quirking up at the corners. âRuining your reputation? You think anyoneâs impressed by you drinking cheap vodka and pouting at me?â
âHey, Iâm plenty impressive,â you shot back, leaning back on your stool with an exaggerated smirk. âIâve got street kids worshiping me, remember? They think Iâm a legend.â
Sevika arched an eyebrow, her smirk growing. âYeah, a legend at whining, apparently.â
You rolled your eyes but couldnât fight the small grin tugging at your lips. âYouâre deflecting,â you accused, pointing at her.
âAnd youâre annoying,â she countered, but there was no real heat in her words.
âAnnoying enough to get under your skin, though,â you teased, taking another sip of your drink. âWhich means Iâm doing something right.â
Sevika groaned, pinching the bridge of her nose, but you caught the way her shoulders relaxed just a little more. âYou donât let up, do you?â
âNot when I think thereâs something worth fighting for,â you said, your tone softening just slightly.
Her eyes flicked to yours, and for a moment, she looked like she might argue. But instead, she sighed again, shaking her head. âYouâre a pain in the ass, you know that?â
âYeah,â you said with a grin, raising your glass in a mock toast. âBut I grow on people.â
Sevika snorted, shaking her head but not denying it. âDonât push your luck.â
âWouldnât dream of it,â you replied, though the playful glint in your eyes said otherwise.
The conversation lulled for a moment, the two of you settling into a companionable silence. The hum of the bar faded into the background, and you found yourself watching Sevika as she absentmindedly traced the edge of her glass with her metal fingers.
âLook,â you said after a beat, your voice quieter now, âIâm not asking for a miracle or anything. I just⌠I think weâve both had enough pretending for one night.â
Sevikaâs fingers stilled, her gaze lifting to meet yours. There was a flicker of something in her eyesâhesitation, maybe. Or vulnerability.
âYeah,â she murmured, her voice low but steady. âSure.â
You smiled, the corners of your mouth twitching upward in a way that felt almost foreign. âSee? I knew Iâd get you to admit I was right eventually.â
âDonât get used to it,â Sevika muttered, but there was a softness to her tone that took the edge off her words.
âI would never,â you said again, but this time, your voice was sincere.
As you giggled at Sevikaâs hesitance to let up on you, a hand naturally lifting to cover your smile as you tried to stop your little giggle fit.
Sevikaâs eyes lingered on you for a moment longer than she intended. The sound of your laughterâso genuine, so unguardedâechoed in her chest, stirring something she didnât want to name.
She told herself it was just the vodka, the dim light of the bar, the way you always seemed to pull her into these situations without her realizing. But as her gaze traced the curve of your smile, the way your eyes crinkled at the corners, and the faint flush creeping up your cheeks, Sevika felt her resolve waver.
No.
She wouldnât.
Couldnât.
But gods, did she want to.
She wanted to memorize the way your laughter filled the air, to see that smile again and again, to be the reason for it. It was ridiculousâdangerous, evenâbut for a fleeting moment, she let herself imagine it. Imagine what it would feel like to have you by her side, not as an annoyance or a distraction, but as something more.
The thought alone made her tense, her metal fingers curling into a fist on the counter.
âYouâre something else, you know that?â Sevika muttered, her voice gruff as she leaned back in her seat, trying to mask the swirl of emotions tightening in her chest.
You paused mid-giggle, your hand dropping as you glanced at her. âIs that a compliment?â you teased, tilting your head with a playful grin.
âDonât push it,â she replied, but her tone lacked its usual sharpness.
Still, you couldnât miss the way her gaze softened, just for a second, before she looked away.
âSevikaâŚâ you started, leaning slightly closer.
âDonât,â she interrupted, her voice quiet but firm.
You froze, confusion flickering across your face. âDonât what?â
Sevika sighed, running a hand through her short hair. âDonât make me care more than I already do.â
The words hit you like a freight train, and for a moment, all you could do was stare at her, your heart pounding in your chest.
âWhat if I want you to?â you asked softly, the words slipping out before you could stop them.
Sevikaâs jaw clenched, her eyes darting to yours, and for a moment, you saw the vulnerability she tried so hard to hide.
âItâs not that simple,â she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.
âFine, have it your way.â you hum unapologetically, reaching over and stealing her glass and swallowing down what was left of her own vodka.
â
Sevika had made sure to get you back to your little hideout in one piece, given you weren't the greatest with alcohol given how your pace stuttered or you came to a complete stop to balance yourself.
She helped you climb up the fire escape to your little cave,steading you with a firm hand on your back as you stumbled up the fire escape, her metal arm clinking softly against the rungs. You muttered something incoherent about being "perfectly fine" and "used to this," but she ignored you, her lips quirking in quiet amusement.
When you finally reached the top, you gestured grandly to your âhideout,â as if it was a palace. The reality was far less impressive.
The small space was wedged between two buildings, half-covered by a rusted piece of metal acting as a makeshift roof. A few blankets and pillows were scattered on the floor, a small stash of food tucked into a corner along with a battered lantern. It was functional, but it wasnât much.
Sevikaâs eyes scanned the area, her expression unreadable. âThis is where youâve been living?â she asked, her tone carefully neutral.
You huffed, brushing past her as you tried to reclaim some dignity. âItâs one of my spots,â you said defensively, waving a hand. âYou know, in case things go south.â
Her gaze lingered on you for a moment before she crossed her arms, leaning casually against the wall. âDoesnât look too secure.â
âOh, please,â you shot back, your cheeks flushing. âItâs fine. Iâve been here for years, and Iâm still standing, arenât I?â
Sevika raised an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed.
You crossed your arms, mirroring her stance. âWhat? You gonna start critiquing my home decor now?â
A smirk tugged at her lips, but she held her tongue, sensing that any more teasing would push you into a full-blown tantrum. âNo,â she said simply. âItâs⌠cozy.â
You blinked, caught off guard by the lack of sarcasm. âCozy?â
âYeah,â she said, shrugging as if it wasnât a big deal. âIt works. Thatâs what matters, right?â
You stared at her for a moment, unsure if she was mocking you or being genuine. But the softness in her eyesâsubtle as it wasâtold you she wasnât making fun of you.
âWell, uh⌠thanks, I guess,â you mumbled, rubbing the back of your neck as you avoided her gaze.
Sevika pushed off the wall, her smirk returning. âDonât mention it. Just donât expect me to climb that fire escape again anytime soon.â
You snorted, feeling some of your embarrassment ebb away. âNoted.â
She started to turn toward the exit, but then hesitated, glancing back at you. âYou good here?â
âYeah,â you said quickly, nodding. âIâm good.â
Sevika nodded, her expression softening for just a moment before she made her way back down the fire escape.
You watched her go, your heart still racing from the nightâs events. As you turned back to your little hideout, you let out a breath, trying to shake off the lingering warmth her presence had left behind.
âCozy,â you muttered to yourself, rolling your eyes. But despite your best efforts, a small smile tugged at your lips.
Okay maybe it was immature for you to have a crush on a woman twice your age, who had no interest in you whatsoever, and who would've probably ripped you limb to limb by now ...if she hadnât inexplicably decided to tolerate your existence. Maybe even like it, though you werenât going to push your luck assuming that. Still, it was hard to ignore the way Sevika seemed to linger around you lately, as if she was trying to figure out what made you tickâor why you hadnât annoyed her enough to leave yet.
It wasnât like you had any grand delusions about her feelings. Sevika wasnât exactly the soft, romantic type. She was gruff, distant, and intimidating as hellâeverything you definitely shouldnât be drawn to.
But there was something about the way she looked at you sometimes. Like you were more than just another street rat scraping by. Like maybe, just maybe, you mattered.
Of course, that was probably just your overactive imagination. She was twice your age, far more experienced in lifeâand in surviving this hellhole. You were nothing more than an amusing distraction at best.
Still, it didnât stop your heart from doing that stupid fluttery thing whenever she leaned in just a little too close. Or the way your stomach flipped when she smirked at you, that rare and fleeting expression that made you feel like youâd done something right for once.
You groaned, flopping down onto your makeshift bed with a dramatic sigh. âGet a grip,â you muttered to yourself, running a hand through your hair. âSheâs way out of your league. Not to mention, probably plotting how to make you usefulâor at least tolerable.â
But even as you said it, your thoughts drifted back to the way her voice softened when she talked about losing people. The way her gaze lingered on you a second too long when she thought you werenât looking.
It was stupid. Childish. Dangerous.
And yet, you couldnât shake the thought.
Because no matter how many times you told yourself to let it go, there was still a small, stubborn part of you that wondered what it would be like if she did care. Even just a little.

Careful what you wish for...
This is not a story, but an announcement. An announcement that will make some princes and princesses' acorns and silly buttons twitch, I'm sure.
Some of you know @eratoxcalliope, also known as @akinkycouplereturns. Apart from a friendship that is increasingly developing these days, which I am most proud of, we've got a little... project in our hands, after she's realized something vital:
She married a child. Her husband is a completely overgrown toddler. A whiny little baby who needs some guidance in the grown-up world. As he's told me himself, he's only 29 months old! How cute.
So we've taken up the task of making the cutest, best behaved little princess out of him. It's so funny that such a big, strong man craves humiliation and exposure so badly. Behold my and Calliope's kiddo getting his lil bum spanked yesterday night:
Doesn't he look soooo cute? Humbled by his Momma and Papa for throwing a tantrum like the whiny toddler he is? He was all fussy bc we hid the computer cord that allowed him lose so much time playing big boy videogames he's still too little to understand... So we had to make him listen :p. Though I think she was too lenient on the little Princess...
He's at work rn, but when he gets home, this is the stupid lil outfit waiting for him on Momma's bed (bc he will be soon transferred to the guest room...):
Say it with me: awwwwww. Such a wittle kiddo with his cute schoolboy outfit!
Long story short, we're happy to announce we want to make his life miserable 𼰠since he's admitted us how eager he is to follow any humiliating rules we see fit. We're starting off with some easy-to-follow schoolboy rules that'll make him quiver for sure:
Appropiate language. Princess will always address the adults with respect and will not cuss or use big girl words.
Bedtime is at 8pm from now on. No buts.
No nasty hair below Princess' nose. We want a hairless little tot to make fun of.
Appropiate clothing. Princess will dress like the toddler she is at home, with little kid's underwear or pull-ups to be worn during the day.
Diapers will be worn for the night and Princess is expected to wake up wet in them. Waking up dry will be considered misbehaving.
Papa is to be greeted every morning and every night with a cute little girl voice mail. Failing to do so will have Princess punished.
Mama and Papa can always add new rules to this set if Princess misbehaves.
And that'd be it. I swear to God this is as real as pathetic it sounds. Stay stuned to see this little guy's descent to babyhood!
(And maybe, just maybe, my own descent to Calliope's bed...)
And don't forget to reblog. He'll hate love it.

Pleeaseee please please some Matty or Ross breeding kink fics? Thank you. (You donât have to if youâre not comfortable with it)
18+ mdni, smut, p in v, dirty talk, breeding link, d word đ
âhe was fucking pathetic thinking he could have you,â matty grits through his teeth while his hips snap violently against yours.
he was furious the second you got back from a birthday party, furious at the guy who wanted to dance with you, touch you, get you out of there all alone.
âdid you like that? having him all over you, knowing he could never fuck you like i do.â
you shake your head. then you nod. you donât know. all you know is that he feels too good inside of you right now and you could never want anyone else.
âhm?â he asks again, gripping your chin to prevent you from looking away, âliked all the attention?â
âfuck- matty,â he fucks you deep and slow. he has a firm grip on your hips, and heâs barely leaving your cunt before heâs slamming back into you, desperate to keep the tip of him as close to your cervix as possible.Â
ânow itâs all matty again, sâpathetic. answer my question, love.â
your nails scratches down mattyâs back as he pounds into you, leaving red marks to blossom over his pale skin. you are sure youâre going to pass out from how many orgasms you already had but still you hold him close to you and welcome each blow to your cunt he gives.
ân-no. just want your attention, promise,â you whimper.
âah,â he teases, âthat so? then what should we do about the other wankers?â
you bite your lip, thinking about if youâre going to say what you want to say.
matty bites at your neck slowly, rubbing your clit with his thumb.
âcum in me,â you moan out, âf-fill me up.â
you feel mattyâs hips stop, the once quick motions of him moving his dick in and out suddenly pausing. you open your eyes, feeling your brows furrowing in confusion.
"donât- you donât," you begin to stutter.
he moves your hand from his cheek up to his mouth, placing a gentle kiss before interlocking your fingers.
"say it again"
you smile to yourself, chuckling softly before you roll your hips up to his, restarting the motions. you pull mattyâs head down, your lips trailing up his neck, peppering kisses on his skin. you move your lips from his neck before whispering in his ear. âwant you to cum deep inside"
mattyâs hips start to move again, moving in a deep sensual manner. "you want me to fill you up, love? let everyone know youâre mine?â
matty moves his hand to your breast, pulling and pinching at your nipples. you feel yourself clench around him, becoming hotter at the words between the two of you.
âyes- oh fuck, could be a real daddy,â you hear a loud groan, his grip on your hips getting tighter. you can hear the wetness of your cunt, the sound squelching from the quickening pace of mattyâs hips.
matty moves back, pulling your legs up to his shoulders, deepening the angle. he moves one of his hands to your stomach, fingers glazing lightly.
"gonna fuck you full of my cum, darling, fuck it deep into you. everyone will know then- that youâre mine, that iâm the one having you like this.â
you canât think straight, the knot in your stomach forming and your mind full of fuzz. your brain canât form a coherent sentence, quickly nodding as tears start to prickle in the corners of your eyes.
"can feel you squeezing me so tight, darling.â
mattyâs hand falls back to your clit, rubbing in quick circles, keeping his other hand firm on your stomach.
"so good for me, such a good girl for taking me like this. gonna fill you up right here," he places two gentle taps on your stomach, right above your bellybutton, âgonna let me do that, hm?â
"fuck, matty, i'm gonna come" your voice sounds distant, like it isnât your own, following your statement with a string of please.
"look so gorgeous for me, be a good girl and let me have it, yeah? then youâll be full of me for days.â matty groans through gritted teeth.
âfuckfuckfuck, matty,â you feel yourself come undone with a loud moan, your thighs shaking and eyes rolling back. mattyâs pace quickens, hips snapping against yours at a brutal pace, sweat forming on his brows, face and chest red, before you feel his beat skip.
âthatâs it, love,â he moans, his face dropping to your neck, âyou want to be full now?â
âyes, please, need you,â you plead.
you clench around him repeatedly, âcâmon, daddy,â you giggle.
âchrist,â matty moans, âyeah, iâll give you that, fill this cunt, give you a baby.â
with one final stutter of his hips, matty lets out a strangled moan, flushing his hips against yours as he milks himself of every last drop, painting your warm, wet walls with hot ropes of his, making sure nothing goes to waste.
âoh, fuckinâ hell.â
he canât help but but press even further into you, fucking his cum as deep as he could into your cunt to make sure it stays there, collapsing on top of you with himself still buried in your heat, letting your chests heave together in sync as you both catch your breath.
you hum, âso you reckon that worked?â
matty catches your grin and shakes his head, âfuck me,â he mumbles, âif not we should just try again.â

you did THE BEST writing the sub leehan drabble and i can't stop thinking about how ihan would be if he suddenly found out he had mommy kink...
as if you were touching him after he has been needing you all afternoon since he couldn't see you and as a result of the pleasure, out of nowhere he is calling you mommy and whining like a baby pleading for more
I think that even he would be surprised by what he says but he couldn't stop begging OH GOD IT DRIVES ME CRAZY RNNN I NEED IT
If you can do something like that I would really appreciate it đĽ˛đĽ˛
pd: I really love your work, you are one of my favorite writers ilyđđâĄ
a/n: youâre so sweet thank you so much for loving my work, it makes me so happy to hear that 𼚠honestly iâve been warming up to mommy kinks (just jaehyun and taesan so far) so i tried⌠also this might've turned out to be way longer than intended so enjoy cutie đ wc: 1k contains: sub!leehan x dom!reader, implied switch!leehan, mommy kink leehan, marking, handjob, riding, penetration (p in v), unprotected sex (don't!), creampie, lowercase intended
almost a month passed by without seeing your boyfriend around. practice ran late into the night, leehan just staying at the dorms for the time being. he had to be up early, barely getting any sleep, and had no time to talk to you. so when he was able to finally finish with performances, of course he clung to you like a baby koala.
you played with his hair while softly kissing the top of his head, leehan nuzzling into you under your touch. questions and answers about how life had been got exchanged, with him closing his eyes at your voice. he found comfort in the warmth of your tone, one that he missed the sound of so dearly. and as he started to feel sleepy, his answers eventually turned into mumbles of soft hmm-s and mhm-s.
at the lack of responses, you stopped practically interrogating him, instead resorting to kissing his face. your lips touched every part of him so softly as you faced him to show your love. he smiled his signature smile, the one where his eyes scrunch into crescents, resembling the moon in a beautiful night sky. as much as he loved to make you feel special, he loved to be taken care of. so he let you do as you wanted, to help him fill up on the love he'd been deprived of.
the kisses never stopped, trailing down to his jawline as your hands reached behind his back to rub it gently. he could feel every touch to his core, slowly but surely starting to get needy for you. it was when you kissed down his neck onto his sweet spot that he said it: âmommyâŚâ
his voice was quiet by firm, but you let go of your position to stare at him. âwhat did you say?â
the sudden change in the atmosphere had the two of you confused but also⌠excited. he was never one to call you by said term, but at the moment it felt so right. but if you didnât like it, then he just mightâve ruined the moodâŚ
ân-nothing, donât worry.â his embarrassed face came on as he tried to deny in, but you took his hand to intertwine your fingers. leaning down to kiss that spot once again, you muttered, ââs ok, say whatever you wanna.â
the indirect acceptance of the new nickname had him going. to describe it, he felt like it was the only right term to use at the moment, and he surprisingly liked how it sounded out of his mouth. but you did have to get used to it, and what better way than to have him call you so for now?
your kissing turned into marking, leaving pink hues on the pale canvas. the tug of your teeth on his sensitive skin made him whimper, scared to call you by the name again. you kept going though, wanting to hear him call you so, sucking a bit harder to leave deeper reds.
âtake your shirt off baby.â you got up to take your own shirt off, him following suit. he bit his lips as you pushed him back down on the bed, going back to marking his now revealed chest. your free hand moved up to his nipples, touching over them and causing him to gasp.
you looked up at him as your lips reached down to the other nipple, kissing around it. he nervously returned the eye contact, scared for what will happen next. your mouth wrapped around it now, licking and sucking on the new territory. this had leehan squirming under you, the sensitivity hitting him at once as he moaned out once again.
âmommyâŚâ you smirked against his chest as you played with his nipples, something heâd always do when the roles were reversed. your continued attention on his sensitive buds had him whining under you until you let go, sitting up beside him.
âcome put your head here, my good boy.â leehan gasped at the nickname as he watched you pat on your lap, inching closer to obey your order. he nervously watched as you raised an eyebrow and pushed down the bra cups to show your boobs, slightly leaning down for him. ânow suck.â
his tongue immediately wrapped around your nipple, hands flying to engulf you in a hug. your one hand stayed on leehanâs hair to stroke it as your other removed the rest of his clothes for him. lying naked while sucking your boobs, your leehan looked really cute while being all desperate for you. you hummed out praises for him continuously while also stroking his dick now. and every now and then, leehan would let go to let out the softest yet most exasperated sighs accompanied by calling you mommy.
âyouâre being such a good boy for mommy, hanie.â smiling down at him, he hid his face between your chest while nodding, blushing at how you called yourself so. your thumb slid across his slit, hissing following suit. fingers tangled in his blond locks as you slowly rubbed him, his throat now leaving moans of desperation freely. your boyfriend jerked against your hand as he sucked your nipples once again. all the shame and shyness left his body at this point, not caring what he did or said. and all he needed was you to take control.
"mommy please, i need more..." he moaned softly while continuing his actions. a hum followed, with you moving him to get up and on top of him. your sweet smile accompanied by your not-so-sweet actions made leehan squirm under you as you held onto his dick. the slick between the two of you formed quite enough to help him ease into you, causing both lovers to gasp in unison. you moved slowly at first, bottoming out every time before getting back up and going down on him once again.
leehan whimpered as he caught onto your hand, the pleasure getting to his emotions as his eyes teared up. any and every kind of sound erupted from his chest, louder than the previous as he begged you for more. he let out hymns of "faster please mommy," "please, harder mommy, please," "mommy please," "mommy, mommy, mommy!" until he came undone in you, his seed spilling out as you kept riding his pretty cock, which is just for his mommy.

Daemyra x female!reader
Dark!Aemond x fem!reader
This chapter is shorter, mostly in preparation for the next one... which is going to be hard...
Chapter summary: Viserys' death creates more plots than expected
Chapter wantings: none in particular, maybe being locked, threat of forced marriage.
Tag list
@k1ttybean
@tojisrealwifey
@sinarainbows
I walk quickly to my chambers, I can't help the feeling of being watched, the way Aemond talked to me was anything but sweet. Almost terrifying.
I close the door as quietly as possible, hoping to finally get some proper rest, I couldn't even leave with Rhaenyra and Daemon, I did promise Alicent to stay with her.
"Why being so sneaky, my love?" Daemon's voice startles me.
"Shit!" I exclaim and put my hand to my chest to calm my heartbeat.
"Hey..." he says softly, "what's wrong?"
"Nothing." I say immediately, "nothing, where's Rhaenyra?"
"She fell asleep... a lot happened today." He walks closer, "love, is something wrong?"
"No, of course not." I chuckle.
"What did he say to you?" He asks, turning serious.
"Nothing, my love." I say, not meeting his eyes, focusing more on my dress, eager to just take it off and get some sleep.
I can sense him considering me for a moment before he stops my movement, gently making me turn to look at him.
"You're not staying here." He firmly tells me, I let out a deep sigh, turning away from him again.
"I promised Alicent." I say, sitting to take off my shoes.
"Like I give a fuck about that bitch." He scoffs, "you're not staying here."
"I can take care of myself, thank you very much." I snap back, catching myself remembering Rhaenyra's sleeping not far from where we are, I lower my voice, "I can handle whatever crush he might think he has."
"Oh... so I was right, wasn't I?" He smirks, but the clench in his jaw tells me his demeanor is far from playful.
"Yes, fine... you were right." I wave him off, "but it's simply a crush, Daemon, I can handle it."
"Well, I'm not comfortable with you staying here on your own." He says firmly.
"Gods, Daemon!" I whisper yell at him, standing to face him properly, "I'm not a child anymore."
"Exactly." He says, softly. "You're a woman. You're my woman, and it's my duty to protect you."
"I don't need protection here, Daemon." I take his hands, "you taught me how to defend myself, do you not trust your own teaching?" I tease him, to ease his nerves.
"Oh, I trust them very much, I simply don't trust the snakes inhabiting this castle." He makes me hug him, so our faces are closer.
"I know, my love, but I gave my word." I say firmly, "I'm staying. Stop worrying."
He sighs, he kisses me then looks mw dead in the eyes.
"If I hear... that something happened... I will burn each one on them. You hear me?" He tells me.
"I do." I give his lips a peck, "I know you will."
--------------
I managed to sneak into my chambers before someone could notice me sounding the night with the Princess and her husband. We said our goodbyes before they left too.
I also managed to get some more sleep before a bad feeling woke me up suddenly.
I decide to just sit by the window and take some time to think. I feel like something wrong, but I can't seem to put a finger on it.
It could be the conversation with Aemond yesterday, but it doesn't seem to be all.
There's some tension in the air too, I look out the window, down to the stairs, there's no one. It's empty.
My eyes catch movement, I quickly look up noticing I can see Rhaenys' chamber from mine. She too is looking out and she too looks tense.
We lock eyes. There's some warning in hers, she even motions me to look down, to pay attention. Like on cue, people start to walk down those stairs, taken somewhere by the guards.
I look up at Rhaenys again.
"Check your doors." She tells me, a sense of dread invades my body as I immediately rush to the doors. I try to open them.
Locked.
I rush back to the window.
"Locked." I tell her, "what's going on?"
"I have my theories... and I think you'll agree." She says, with heavy tone.
I nod and look down one last time, and when I notice Rhaenys is not there anymore I go back to the doors, giving it another shot at opening them.
I push and pull with all my strength, but unfortunately it definitely, definitely locked.
"Fuck." I curse. I go to my own luggage and look through my things. I must have something to help me open the doors.
Something must've happened to the king. It's the only explanation I can think of. But those people being moved somewhere... something worse is happening.
I stop my movements as I hear the doors opening. Finally.
I turn around, my eyes landing on Alicent, and her look is enough to explain everything to me.
"Lady Y/n." She says, I can hear the grief in her voice.
"Your highness..." I nod, "don't tell me."
"I'm afraid I can't accommodate you." She says, she tries to keep a strong appearance as she gets closer, taking my hands, "lady Y/n, I have a favour to ask."
I see her desperation, I squeeze her hands to reassure her.
"Anything." I say softly.
"I... I'm..." she stutters, "I'm here to ask your support."
"My... support?" I ask, the dreadful sensation is back, so I retreat my hands.
"Your support for Aegon's claim to the throne." She finally says.
"Aegon..? What... what are you talking about?" I say putting distance between us.
"Y/n, please..."
"No." I shake my head, "what..?"
"It was Viserys' wish." Alicent states.
I look at her, shocked, I don't believe her words. It can't be.
"I don't believe you." I say.
"It's true." She insists, walking to me, forcefully grabbing my hands, "please, you have-"
"I don't have to do anything." I grit out, "you want to usurp Rhaenyra's birthright. Are you listening to yourself? That's your father's idea, isn't it?"
"Y/n, in memory of our past friendship, I'm asking you for help." She squeezes my hands, almost scared I could run away, "your marriage to Aemond wou-"
"What?! Marriage?" I finally get my hands free from her grasp and once again distance myself, "I'm not marrying your son. And especially, I'm not supporting an usurper."
Alicent collects herself, takes a deep breath and fixes her dress.
"I'm..." she clears her throat, "I'm sorry, I didn't want it to come to this, but you leave me no choice."
I look at her confused, not having the faintest idea of what's going through her mind.
"What are you talking about?" I ask, putting myself on guard.
"The wedding will take place after Aegon's coronation, I'm sure we could find a dress that will fit you." She says, emotionless. I scoff, loudly.
"Why are you so adamant to make me marry your son?" I ask, "is this a way to make your children love you?"
"It's a good way to show your support in front of the people." She explains.
"I will not be used to support, basically, a robbery." I say, walking to stand in front of her, "I'm not a pawn in your conspiracy."
"You leave me no choice, Y/n." She whispers, forcing herself to move back to the door.
"You always had a choice, Alicent." I tell her before she exit the room. Having it locked. I could hear her say something to a guard, probably to stay put and not letting me leave.
"Fuck." I curse as I pace around the room, trying to find a solution, and maybe not to panic. I want to hit myself for not listening to my bad feelings about Aemond, and for not leaving with Rhaenyra.
--------------
I don't know exactly how long it's been since I've been locked in my chambers, I haven't seen Rhaenys either at the window, I don't if she was let out or not.
Maybe the moment they let me out for the wedding I can take the chance and run. Unlikely. Too many guards. Also, I can't wait that long.
I look out the window for the millionth time probably, and it's still to high for me to jump.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck." I mutter under my breath, "why haven't the gods gifted me with wings?"
It's dark outside, if I manage to get out I could easily escape, but I need to exit this room first.
"Fuck!"
Before I can start to panic again, the commotion from outside my chambers startles me. I move closer to the doors, cautiously, to get a glimpse of what might be happening when suddenly the door opens and one of the twins of the King's guard enters, cloak in hand.
"Come, lady Y/n. We don't have much time." He tells me handing me the cloak, I take it confused.
"What... what's going on?" I ask, and in that moment Rhaenys comes into my view.
"Ser Erryk is helping us." She says.
I nod and put the cloak on and follow them out, noticing as I walk out the passed out guard near the doors.
--------------
Morning comes rather quickly as we walk through King's Landing.
"I won't leave Meleys" the Princess declares, "if I could get to the Dragon pit, then..."
"No." Erryk is quick to shut her plan down, "they'll expect you there, princess. You won't get past the gates."
"He's right." I agree, "he's right, and we can't risk losing you like this. Meleys knows you're not abandoning her, and they won't lay a hand on her for sure."
She looks at me, sadness filling her eyes. I can't understand the bond between a dragon and its rider, but I can understand it's strong. I gently take her arm and lead her with Ser Erryk, letting her squeeze me to get some comfort.
"Come, you must make for the riverfront and find a ship. Before they know you've gone." Erryk explains and I nod my head in understanding.
As we walk through the stroll of the city we hear guards screaming, ordering people to move. A sea of people almost surrounding us, we try to find another way, Erryk takes our hands to safely lead us away, but the amount of people pushing and walking separate us.
"Stay close to me." Rhaenys tells me, grabbing my arm painfully tighter. I don't intend on losing her here among the people so I ignore the pain. I try to look back and see if I can catch a glimpse of the Knight, but he's too far and too stuck to get to us.
We have no choice but to follow the people.
"Where are we going?" I ask and Rhaneys looks up and around.
"Dragon pit." She says, I looked at her, sensing the determination in her and I sigh.
"The coronation..." I say, "well... maybe we can use the distraction then."
"Indeed."
So we walk with the rest of the people towards the Dragon Pit. Once we get there almost the entire building is filled with people, curious to hear what happened, what the news is.
"People of King's Landing." Otto's voice resound inside, "today is the saddest of days. Our beloved king, Viserys the Peaceful, is dead" everyone in the audience lets out sad and surprised noises, but Otto continues, "but it is also the most joyous of days, for as his spirit left us, "I roll my eye, always the theatrical one, "he whispered his final wish: that his firstborn son, Aegon should succed him.
I sigh and look at Rhaneys, her having the same confused look as me. The audience is just as confused, but eventually starts to applause while the guards enter, creating a path for Aegon to walk through.
I take an attentive look at him, he seems nervous, almost reluctant too. One thing was certain: he himself didn't ask for it. Though, I'm afraid of what power could do to him. What scares me the most is how easily his dear Grandfather could manipulate him.
"It's our chance." I feel Rhaenys pulling me to the sideand down the stairs to where the dragons are kept.
Not being very familiar with the place I let the princes lead me down and once we get to Meleys I can't help but freeze.
"Come." She tells me as she gets ready to ride her dragon.
"I..." I stutter a little, "is that okay? Will she be okay with me riding with you?"
"You sell yourself short, my lady." She tells me, "you got an affiliation with dragons, they can feel it. Now come, we have no time to waste."
I take a deep breath as I follow her up on her dragon.
"Let's go, Meleys, fly." She orders in Old valyrian and her dragon immediately complies, "hold tight."
The dragon takes off and I close my eyes waiting to be out of the caves... out in the Dragon pit.
The dragon's roar is mixed with screams of terror from the people taken by surprise as they run to safety.
I open my eyes, I look down the the royal family standing there.
"Open the doors!" Otto screams.
"We have to go." I tell her.
She doesn't respond, only stares at them. I loom down again, my eyes catch Aemond's. He looks furious, hurt too, but there's something more sinister in him now, something that makes my skin crawl.
I see Alicent stand in front of Aegon, expecting Rhaenys to burn them all. Instead Meleys only roars loudly, making them tremble in fear, then she turn around and flies out.
To Dragonstone.

first arguments
𧺠park gunwook x reader fanfic // lowercase intended // cw: angst, fluff, stress, crying, lots of affection in the end // wc: tba // requested
đa/n: this took awhile bc i got lazy!!! not proofread and it has been awhile since i last read this wtf
lately, you have been busy with a paper assigned to you that would pull your grades up for the class youâre currently struggling with. this was your last opportunity to get a good grade on the subject, and you werenât going to let it slip. you were giving it your all, even ignoring nearly everything around you just to work on the paper. you even rejected your friendsâ offer to hang out just to work on it. you came to neglect your own needs for it, saying âiâll reward myself with as much food as i want when i finish this.â so you could focus on your paper.
gunwook was unaware of this, as he had just gotten back from his own busy schedule, with tours, comebacks, and such. he was so excited to see you, so when he got off hehe immediately messaged you. and messaged.. and messaged⌠and messaged. heâd sent you nearly thirty texts, but you didnât respond. no worries, heâll just call you. no response. now he was worried, where are you? why arenât you replying to him? are you okay? millions of questions run in poor gunwookâs head, and he canât take it. he decides to give you a visit, so he can see why you arenât replying and whatâs got you so occupied.
he arrives at your door, arms crossed after he rings your doorbell. he has a key, but he wants you to open the door. he needs to see you, or else he might go crazy.
as the door starts to creak open, he immediately enters your home, and looks around. he smiles to himself, seeing your apartment always comforted him. he treated it like his second home, since he always visits and stays with you when heâs free.
âgunwook, what are you doing here? i thought you were busy.â you ask him, voice slightly raspy from the lack of water. thatâs weird. usually you greet him with a âwelcome home! i missed you so much, love.â finally, he turns his attention to your physical state. skin pale, dark circles under your eyesâ both signs of lack of sleep. you also hadnât been drinking much water, the raspy tone of your voice proved that to him. heâs worried, concerned for your health. he can clearly see that you havenât been taking care of yourself. âi missed you, angel. i came here to see you.â he pulled you in for a hug, and you weakly hugged him back. âhave you been taking care of yourself? you look paler than usual and your voice seems raspier. you look like you hadnât slept in days, angel.â
his question catches you off guard, so you immediately change the topic. âwhen did your schedules end? i honestly thought you wouldnât be back âtil like next week, or something.â gunwook frowns at your attempt to dodge the question, so now youâre stuck. because if gunwook has a question, heâs going to get the answer no matter what. âdonât dodge my question, love. are you taking care of yourself? or are you not getting enough sleep? tell me please.â he asks you softly, not wanting to sound too serious.
this annoys you though, and you immediately get defensive. âiâm fine, i donât know what you mean. honestly, why are you even here? i donât remember getting messages from you about coming here.â you say, crossing your arms and waiting for his answer. he sighs, shaking his head at your defensiveness. âi did text. i even called you. i sent like twenty messages and called you six times, but no reply. plus i just missed you, and i wanted to see you.â you roll your eyes at his response. âwell now youâve seen me. you can go do whatever.â
âwhy are you being so rude? all i did was check on you. i even went here just to do so and you treat me like you donât even know me.â he argues, wanting answers. why are you acting like this? did he do something? âim busy. i should honestly go do my paper instead of standing here and arguing with you. plus i never even asked you to come did i? i didnât ask for you, so why would you even come? god, i donât even want you here.â venom. venom is the only thing that fits the description of your voice when you say those words.
oh. your words run deep in his head. âi didnât ask for you,â âi donât even want you here.â gunwook knows that you donât mean what you said, youâre just stressed. that doesnât stop it from hurting, though. youâve exchanged hurtful words before during your arguments, but it was never this bad. âshe might be really stressed, maybe i should just leave her alone for now.â he thinks, tears now threatening to come out of his eyes anytime. âuhm⌠okay. iâll just go, bye. i love you, please take-â sniffle âtake care of yourself.â with that, he heads for the door. sniffling and wiping his tears away with his hand.
when he leaves, it is only then that you start to process what happened. you think to yourself, âoh my god, how could i be so cruel? all he did was check on me.â you never meant to hurt him with your words. you especially didnât mean to make him cry. this was the first time you saw him cry over an argument, so you know you really hurt him.
ultimately, you decide to give gunwook some space. you still decided to shoot a message to him, to let him know youâre sorry and you never ever meant what you said.
âhey angel. iâm so so sorry for saying that to you. itâs not true at all. i do want you here, i always do. youâre my favorite person in the whole world, and i literally need you. i know this apology isnât enough, and i really want to make it up to you. iâll be here waiting. come back when youâre ready, i love you so much and iâm so sorry. â¤ď¸â
you stare at the message. it took a couple of minutes for you to hit send. your heart hurts even more when you see that he read your message immediately. even in situations where he should ignore you, he doesnât. regret feels like venom running through your veins, and you feel anxious. he leaves a heart react to your message, and you feel a sense of relief.
when gunwook saw your message, he was still crying. he visited hanbin, their leader. he helped comfort gunwook and gave him advice. he even offered to drive him back to your apartment.
when he arrives at your door, he hesitates. what if you donât want him there? are you guys still okay? will you be mad at him for coming back? all those questions are running in his head, until he finally musters up the courage to knock.
and there you were, looking just as tired as him. probably even more tired. immediately, you let him in and you guys sit together on your couch.
âuhm,â you break the silence. âiâm sorry for blowing up on you like that. i was just really stressed. i was feeling really overwhelmed, i was working on a projectâ which i finished earlier. and i wasnât thinking right. i know thatâs no excuse for what i said, but i really want to make it up to you.â
gunwook listens carefully, making sure everything you say is heard and doesnât interrupt you. he only nods and hugs you before speaking. âitâs⌠itâs okay, i should have known you were busy when you werenât answering myââ
you pull away from the hug, and cup his cheeks. âno, no! itâs not that. thereâs no way you would have known about me being so busy and stressed when i didnât tell you beforehand. donât apologize, just let me make it up to you. okay?â
he purses his lips, thinking of his response and just gives you an âokayâ before letting himself be pulled into another tight hug.
âthat was our first big fight.â he murmurs into your hair, rubbing your back. you sigh in agreement, the nerves and stress slowly leaving you now that youâre with him. âmhm, hopefully the last.â you say, and he nods at you despite the fact that you both know it wonât be the last time you argue.
you both just lay there, processing one of the first (out of many) challenges youâll be facing while in a relationship. heâs got his arms wrapped around you, his face in your hair. while you lay on top of him and you both cuddle it out.
and thatâs okay, because thatâs what makes your love stronger <3. challenges are a part of every relationship, and itâs something you both overcome together.
