P-PERVERT...! FT. KAZUTORA HANEMIYA.

PAIRING: kazutora hanemiya x fem! reader.

C/W: roommate! tora, panty stealing, breeding kink, creampie, perverted thoughts, fingering, somnophilia, non con, collage au, you & kazutora share a dorm.

N0TE. this is a rewrite of my old perverted! kazutora hc‘s in my old blog :)) not proof read!!

pervert! kazutora who purposely spills water on you whenever you‘re wearing a white shirt just to see your nipples perk up from the sudden coldness, he would also snap a few pictures before you go and change so he could jerk off to them later :c.

pervert! kazutora who sneaks into your room, & goes thru your dirty laundry, he would take a pair of your panties & goes back to his room rapping your pretty black lacy panties around his throbbing cock desperately fisting his cock, high moans could be heard from kazutora, you weren’t home so he doesn’t have to worry about getting caught.

kazutora was getting closer & closer to his orgasm he keeps imaging that he had his cock buried deep into your cunt, he would also imagine that it was your hands wrapped around his cock & not your panties.

pervert! kazutora who eavesdrop on you whenever you take a shower hoping that he may hear something interesting like you maybe desperately touching yourself as your high moans echo through the bathroom walls :( he jerks off to the thought of your naked body water hitting your soft skin, kazutora wants to get in with you, he wants to fuck you while water is running down both of you guy‘s skin.

pervert! kazutora would pull you into his lap whenever your passing by him, he would also bury his face between your tits & starts sucking on your nipples from above the soft fabric of your shirt “kazutora not now,” you were trying to focus on studying for your final exams while your roommate has other plans for you :( “you’ve been studying for hours, i think you deserve a break” he says before removing your shorts.

pervert! kazutora who would sneak into your room late at night, he would find you sleeping wearing a shirt with only panties underneath, your legs were slightly spread apart, kazutora slides down your panties & stuffs one of his fingers, slowly pushing in to feel you clench around him, bringing his thumb to press on your clit while he pumped his fingers in & out of you. wet sounds filled the space between you, his core heating at the anticipation of how you would feel around his dick, brushing your clit in a single emotion to feel a rush of fluid rush past his fingers, you came all over his fingers.

kazutora takes out his fingers & unzips his pants to let out his already hard cock, tip leaking with pre cum, he would start rubbing his dick on your pussy, using your cum as lube he slides in his length thrusting in & out of you while letting out small gasps, your eyes flutter open just for you to close them right away “k-kazutora what‘re you d-doing...?” you managed to say.

the boy doesn’t respond, he‘s too busy fucking your cunt thinking about filling it up with his seeds, “n-no kazutora s-stop!!” kazutora simply ignores you, why should he listen when he finally haves your cunt filled with his cock? he has always wanted to do this, he just never got the time, “ha–! ’m cumming inside, want to fill your cunt with my cum” Kazutora coos, the thought of breeding you, filling you up with his cum turned him on so much.

kazutora’s thrusts became faster & harder “‘tora please st—” kazutora interrupted you by kissing your soft lips, forcing his tongue in your mouth while his thrusts start getting sloppier & sloppier with that he lets out his load into your cunt, ropes of thick & warm cum filled you up to the brim.

“i came inside,” kazutora whispered, before sliding your panties back, making sure not a single drop of his seeds is wasted, “go back to sleep, you must be too exhausted,” kazutora whispered as he kissed your forehead & leaves your room. <3

When Aruji-sama gives them their phone

I’m still writing the akuneko fanfic so I decided to write head cannons to fill in the void of not posting akuneko content (my writer’s block is gone so i have motivation to write again^^)

characters: Lucas, Ammon, and Lono

Lucas Thompscie

If you were to give him your phone, he’s immediately going to check your photos just for research purposes

Of course you would tell him not to view all of your photos and personal stuff since you know, he’s Lucas Thompscie, he’s into weaknesses and would practically do anything to tease you about your daily life if possible but he wouldn’t go too far since he knows his boundaries

He would definitely remove your phone case and inspect it before going into the contents of your phone

Since he has obliged to not check your photos, he might as well check your calendar since he needs to be at least informed of all the activities you would be doing in your daily life

But let’s just be real here, do you even use the apple calendar that much? (i personally don’t since i use google calendar)

If you are a student, he’s going to pester you to study if he sees any class work that would be due sooner or later

He would definitely ask you about your objective if you gave him your phone, to that you reply “I just wanted to show you a bit of the devices I have back in my world”

He would understand your reasoning and would inspect your phone further since it seemed like you gave him your consent to do so

Well, if checking your photos didn’t work he would inspect your search history on google

But when he does, he’s going to find it empty

He’s going to give you a semi-suspicious look when he finds your search history

It seems like you deleted your search history before handing him your phone

The first thing he would search on google would be your full name

He’s curious whether or not if people are actually interested in you

But the chances would be very small so of course he didn’t find that much information on you

After his first attempt, he would turn off your phone and give it back to you with a polite smile which would make you feel nervous

You‘re just glad he didn’t find out about your embarrassing interests and photos

Ammon Lead

Ammon has heard of phones before since you told him all about the wonders of gadgets in your world

Of course that would peak his interest so whenever you return to the manor, he’s going to ask you if you brought your phone with you

It got to the point where you didn’t want to give it to him since he is the type of person to break your phone

One day, you had brought your phone with you and decided to keep it a secret from Ammon

But he managed to catch on the fact that you brought your phone and kinda got a little pissed

After all, you did promise him you would show him the wonders of gadgets whenever you brought one to the manor

So when you decided to stroll around the garden, he’s going to take every opportunity to steal your phone

In fact, he did steal your phone when you were helping him with the flowers

So when you leave the garden, Ammon is going to sit against the wall and work his little fingers around your phone

Just like Lucas, he would definitely go to your photos first when he opens your phone

Since you weren’t aware that Ammon stole your phone, he has the freedom to basically do anything

He does have guilt lingering inside him but he manages to wipe the guilt away from his mind

The first thing he sees in your photo gallery is a rather interesting mirror selfie

He definitely giggled when he saw that

But he is going to be amazed when he goes further in your photos

It seems like you took a lot of photos of flowers and he would appreciate that greatly

The next thing he would do is to sneak a photo himself

He’s going to put captions on it, saying ‘whoops i stole your phone’

If he finds out that you can change your wallpaper, he’s going to change the wallpaper to the photo he secretly took

When it’s going to be lunch time, Ammon would sneak your phone back into your pockets

Or if you’re looking for your phone, Ammon would put it in the Lost & Found on the first floor

Someone is about to get a whooping sooner or later

Lono Fontaine

Lono was preparing breakfast for everyone in the kitchen

You ended up giving him a hand since Bastien needed to do some urgent work along with Berrien

Lono was about to retrieve the pastries from the oven when you decided to whip your phone out and take pictures of the food that were already cooked

Lono saw what you were doing and decided to ask what you were using to take photos

You gladly explained to Lono on what phones are which made the chef a bit confused

But the confusion then turned into amusement when you show him that there were recipes online

You even showed him the written recipes he told you

Lono then snatched your phone just to use the Notes app and proceeded to write something

Of course you helped him when it came to using the keyboard (listen, the keyboard can be a pain on the phone)

Lono wrote his full name and gave back your phone to it’s rightful owner

He even told you that he would write his new recipe he created

To which you nodded in reply

Lono’s definitely going to ask you if you brought your phone with you whenever you arrive at the manor

Well, it’s not like he’s going to break it-

im sorry if this doesn’t really sound right, it’s actually my first time writing head cannons in a long time so i apologize for that ( ・∇・)

some alone time

summary: Their ship crashes and two secret lovers are stranded on an ice planet.

pairings: Captain Rex x Jedi!Reader

warnings: angst (blood, injuries) but mostly fluff

words: 1195

MASTERLIST REQUEST RULES

Everything went wrong. One moment Captain Rex and the Jedi (Y/n) were sneaking inside a storage room for some alone time, the next the ship started to shake. (Y/n) lost her balance and fell, hitting her head on a cabinet. She passed out.

The Jedi wakes up again and again but never stays awake for long. Fire surrounds her but incomprehensibly she feels cold. Smoke fills her lungs and makes her eyes water. Still, she can see the worried face of her lover. He is pulling her out of the shipwreck.

“Stay with me“, the Captain tells her but one second later (Y/n)s eyes close once again. Rex leans her unconscious body against a frozen rock and turns back to the wreck. At that very moment, it explodes and sends him falling to the ground.

After placing his helmet in the snow and looking after the hurt Jedi once again, Rex starts looking for useful things in the wreck pieces that aren‘t on fire. Fortunately, the first thing the Captain finds is a blanket with just a few holes. He places it over (Y/n)s shaking form, removing a strand of hair out of her face.

“Rex“, (Y/n) whispers and slowly opens her eyes. She looks directly into the friendly brown eyes of her favourite Captain. “What happened?“

“We crashed on this ice planet. Seems like the ship broke in two so there might be survivors somewhere else“, Rex explains and pulls the blanket higher so that it touches (Y/n)s chin. “Stay here. I will look for other blankets to keep you warm and a medi-pack. Maybe I find some food too.“

The Jedi tries to sit up and help the Captain but stops because of her throbbing head. So she watches Rex for some time but only when he kneels right in front of her again, she sees the blood on his armour.

“You‘re hurt“, (Y/n) states and reaches for the Captains arm. Her eyes are directed on the metal piece in his side, staining his armour with blood.

“Doesn‘t matter. We have to get you out of the cold“, Rex says stubborn and shoulders the backpack he found. Then he wraps his arms around (Y/n)s waist as well as legs and picks her up. The Jedi sighs as she leans against the Captains chest and feels his body warmth.

“Are we...the only survivors?“, (Y/n) asks after some time in which they wander disoriented through the thick snow. Because Rex has got his helmet back on she can‘t see his sad expression, but she can feel it through the force.

The wind and snow make it almost impossible for both of them to see anything but with the help of the Captains helmet they find a cave. Rex sets down (Y/n) on the stony floor and pulls two other blankets out of his backpack. One he places on the floor and the other around (Y/n)s shoulders.

“I have to go out again to find firewood“, Rex explains and already turns around but (Y/n) grabs his wrist. She looks up at him pleadingly.

“Let me treat your injury first, Rex“, (Y/n) begs him and with another sigh Rex sits down in front of her. He places the backpack between them and hands (Y/n) the medi-pack.

Slowly, the soldier takes off his white and blue armour including his helmet, lifting his undershirt so that (Y/n) can see his bloody injury. When she cleans the wound with a cloth, Rex hisses in pain. (Y/n) smiles at him apologetic. Carefully, she pulls the metal piece out of his body and presses the cloth to the open wound.

“I‘m sorry“, she whispers and places a bacta-patch over the injury. Then she notices that the Captain is shaking and places one of her many blankets over his shoulders. They are now so close to each other that they can almost feel the body warmth of the other.

“Let me“, Rex says as he takes the cloth from (Y/n)s small hands. While he places one of his hands on her cheek, the other wipes away the blood from her forehead. For some time their eyes are connected and both smile sweetly.

“At least we‘ve finally got some time for ourselves“, Rex says with a laugh and lets his rough thumb caress (Y/n)s cold cheek. Then he leans forward and presses his lips against hers.

Even though (Y/n) tries to deepen the kiss and get closer to her favourite Captain. Rex parts from her and starts to put his armour back on. (Y/n) watches him throw his blanket around her shoulders once again.

“Stay here. I will look for some wood for a fire“, Rex explains and kneels down in front of (Y/n) to kiss her forehead. He turns to the caves entrance and leaves into the snow storm.

(Y/n) tries desperately to stay awake but the coldness and her throbbing head make it impossible. She wakes up again when someone lifts her from the cold floor. At first, (Y/n) is alarmed and her hand wanders to her lightsaber but then her eyes set on the Captain.

“It‘s just me“, the Captain whispers as he places (Y/n)s head in his lap and starts to play with her hair. The fire in front of them warms both of them. The female Jedi finally stops shaking and sighs relieved.

“Here eat something“, Rex tells the Jedi Knight and shows her a ration bar on his palm. (Y/n) sits up slowly because even though she isn‘t in much pain anymore, her head still feels dizzy.

“Only if you do too“, (Y/n) states and takes the ration bar only to break it in two. With a sigh the Captain takes half of the bar.

“You should go back to sleep. I take the night watch and wake you in the morning. Then we can look for other survivors“, Rex explains while eating and staring in the fire.

“No. There is no way anything will find this cave through the storm, Rex. I‘m actually impressed you came back“, the Jedi resits and stuffs the last bite of her ration bar inside her mouth, then turning to her secret lover. The Clone Captain rolls his eyes but nods because he knows arguing with a Jedi has no use.

“Then let‘s sleep“, Rex whispers and wraps both his arms around the females body, laying down and pulling (Y/n) full on top of him. This position allows them to share their body warmth. At first, the Jedi hides her face in the Captains neck, but then she lifts her head so that she can look in his lovely golden eyes. A smile forms on her lips.

“I‘m happy you are here with me“, (Y/n) admits with a lovesick expression and places soft kisses all over Rex‘ face - his forehead, nose, cheeks as well as chin. These few words mean more to the clone than an I love you. They mean much more and show (Y/n)s deep feelings.

A giggle leaves Rex‘ throat and the next moment he leans forward to kiss his beloved Jedi. He pulls her even closer and moves his lips with so much love against her own.

hello 👋 You‘re writing is not as cringe as others (haha jk I like your writing a lot actually) Can I request Noya Tsukki or Bokuto (whichever you‘re more comfortable with) going into the locker room while their new manager is changing.

You can also add whatever you like :D I trust you I also wanted to let you know that your blog is the only one I have notifications on for 💕 Thank youuu!~

I HAD SO MUCH FUN WRITING FOR NOYA. I decided to combine these two together! I hope you don’t mind! Also you guys are so wonderful! I hope you guys like it and let me know what you think:)

~~~

You hadn’t planned on this happening. 

 Your face burned in embarrassment as you stared right back. The shirt you were about to put on still lingered on your arms, luckily it was covering your chest, but your back was entirely exposed, which meant so was your bra.

 “I-I I’m so sorry!” Nishinoya yelled, bowing his head before turning rapidly to leave the room, his forehead slamming into the door frame.

 “N-Noya! Are you okay!?” you panicked, your shirt dropping completely from your arms as you reached for the hurt libero, not even registering that your upper body was now completely exposed.

 He was grabbing at his head in pain, but when he felt your soft hands press against his shoulder, he looked up at you quickly. His face was bright red, and then his nose started bleeding. 

 “B-B-Boobs!” he stuttered out, staring at your white bra and cleavage. A small pink bow rested in the middle.

 It was a beautiful sight.

 You stared at him dumbfounded, before realizing what he had said. Your face was just as red as his now, your arms coming up to wrap around yourself, covering your chest in embarrassment. 

 “Noya, you dumbass!” you screamed.

 He started screaming back, apologizing profusely as he attempted to cover his eyes and leave the room again, only for him to stumble about.

 This was pure chaos.

 You grabbed the nearest piece of clothing to you, hurriedly throwing it on. Which just so happened to be Nishinoya’s team jacket. You zipped up the jacket all the way to your chin just in time for Kiyoko and Sugawara to run into the locker room at the commotion.

 You were sitting on the floor, clutching at the front of the jacket, face flushed as you looked away from Nishinoya, who was holding his nose and looking away from you, equally as red.

 “What happened?” Sugarawa asked, scratching his cheek as he looked between you guys with a sheepish smile.

 “N-Nothing! Can you guys please get out!? I need to finish changing! Noya hit his head and got a bloody nose! You should help him!” you said hurriedly, urging them out of the room.

 Once it was cleared, you slammed the door shut, sighing in exhaustion.

 “Y/n isn’t that Nishinoya’s?” Kiyoko asked curiously.

 You blushed furiously once more, hurriedly removing the jacket and grabbing your shirt, stuffing the jacket into your gym bag.

 “We’re late. Let’s go!” you grumbled, grabbing the third year’s hand and tugging her away from the room.

 The girl’s changing room was being renovated, meaning that you guys were using the boy’s changing room. An incident like this only happened because you forgot to put up the sign that it was in use. 

 A mistake on your part since you were rushing to change, you were running late to practice, and now Nishinoya was injured because of you.

 You felt terrible.

 Well… maybe not that terrible, considering that he was completely fine, minus the red mark on his forehead.

 He met your gaze and both of you immediately averted your eyes from each other, an evident blush on both of your faces.

 Nishinoya hadn’t meant to run into the changing room like that, he had forgotten his knee pads and the sign wasn’t up. But… if he was being honest with himself, he was glad he did.

 The image of your exposed chest was forever burned into his mind now, the white of your bra and the bow… he was going to treasure that forever.

 You had joined the volleyball club only two weeks ago. While you were still adjusting to everything around you, you had already formed strong bonds with the team.

 But one member in particular had his eye on you in a different way. 

 Nishinoya found you incredibly beautiful, you were smart and funny, incredibly reliable and kind… and you were shorter than him.

 He wondered how he wasn’t aware of you before, considering that you were a second year as well, but in one of the higher classes.

 “Noya.” your sweet voice interrupted his thoughts. Your small hand holding his knee pads were presented before him. “You forgot these.”

 “Y/n I’m really so-” you held your hand up, interrupting his apology.

 “Don’t worry about it, it was an accident. I know you didn’t mean to. Let’s just forget it happened yeah?” you asked smiling brightly at him despite the blush in your face.

 He nodded gently, taking his knee pads and watched as you jogged off to help Kiyoko.

 But he definitely couldn’t promise that, he couldn’t forget that incident if his life depended on it, in fact he would revisit that moment later tonight, he was sure of it.

 ***

 It had been several weeks since the incident, and no one talked about it luckily. You were starting to get the hang of the manager duties, and your bond with the boys deepened.

 It was pure chaos managing the Karasuno boys with Kiyoko, but it was incredibly fun. 

 “Are you planning on giving out chocolates this year?” You asked Kiyoko one day, both of you were hanging up the volleyball net.

 “Chocolates?” she asked.

 “You know! For Valentine’s Day!” you said brightly. “It’s tomorrow!”

 Several ears perked up at your guys’ conversation.

 Valentine’s Day was every man’s dream. A day of receiving chocolates from a cute girl.

 That was pure heaven.

 “I usually don’t do stuff like that.” Kiyoko said quietly. “Do you?”

 You nodded excitedly. “Of course! I do it every year for my friends! I was thinking about making some for the team. Do you think that would be okay?”

 You were… you were going to make the team chocolates? 

 “Y/n-chan! You would do that for us!?” Tanaka cried suddenly appearing right next to you. 

 You laughed nervously, sweatdropping at his interruption. “If that’s okay…”

 “That’s more than okay!” He cried, “You’re a pure angel!”

 “I- I wouldn’t say that…”

 “Y/n-san is making us chocolates tomorrow Kageyama! I bet that’s the first time you’ve ever received chocolates from a girl!”

 “Boke! The same could be said about you!”

 “The King is right, who would want to give you chocolates?”

 Chaos.

 Complete chaos. You shouldn’t have said anything, you thought as you watched Daichi yell at everyone.

 “Y/n-chan!” Nishinoya called out to you as he entered the gym. He smiled at you brightly.

 While you had felt awkward for a couple of days after that incident in the locker room, the relationship between you and Nishinoya was still the same.

 “Noya! How did you do on your quiz?” you asked walking over to the short male. He grinned brightly, pulling out a sheet paper and giving you a thumbs up.

 “I did fantastic! Thanks for helping me study!” he said boisterously.

 “I mean… it’s better than your last score.” You laughed; the grade was still low to the point that he shouldn’t be bragging but… it was definitely better.

 “I know right!?” he grinned.

 Before you could say more Ukai called attention to the practice, meaning that you were going to run around and finish your manager duties.

 As you worked your mind wandered over to the small libero. Ever since the incident, well you were watching Nishinoya a lot more closely than you had before.

 He was… really cute, now that you thought about it. Surprisingly he was also really cool when he played volleyball, that was something that you hadn’t expected to think. 

 Dare you say it… you knew you started harboring a small crush on the male.

 You already had plans on making his chocolate a little more special than everyone else’s.

 Valentine’s Day couldn’t have come at a better time.

 ***

 “So, are you going to give it to him!?” your friends asked excitedly after you had given them their own chocolates.

 You yawned loudly, you had stayed up late making the handmade chocolates, specifically making sure Nishinoya’s was tasty and immaculate.

 You carefully pulled out the neatly wrapped chocolates, it was in a different bag and wrapped differently than the others. A hopeful display of your affections towards the libero.

 “It’s so cute! He’s going to love them!” your friend squealed.

 A small smile twitched at your lips. “I hope so… I hope my feelings can get across to him… he’s not the smartest…”

 They giggled at your statement.

 Suddenly an arm wrapped around your shoulders, one of your male classmates leaning against you cheekily. 

 You guys weren’t the closest, but you guys could be considered friends.

 “Oh! Good, you’re here! Here I made chocolates for everyone -” you reached to grab one of the other chocolates from your bag. Until Nishinoya’s was suddenly taken from your other hand. 

 “W-Wait -”

 “Thanks Y/n-chan! These are really cute! You made them just for me!? You’re the best! Receiving chocolates from a cute girl like you makes me so happy!” he said cheekily, already opening up the chocolates and popping one in his mouth, he pecked your cheek briefly before walking off with his group of friends that were teasing him.

 Did he really just do that?

 You frowned, biting back tears. What were you going to do now?

 “Y/n-chan do you want us to go get that back?” One of your friends asked gently.

 “He already ate them.... Oh, shoot I’m going to be late!” you said, noticing the time. You ran off after a brief goodbye.

 Unbeknownst to you, Nishinoya had seen that exchange from afar. But under the wrong context.

 He had thought that you had given that guy those chocolates, and the way he kissed your cheek… you must’ve confessed to him. Especially with those incredibly cute chocolates.

 A fire burned deep in Nishinoya’s stomach as he walked towards the club room, he should’ve known better that someone as beautiful and kind as you wouldn’t be interested in someone like him.

 He didn’t look at you throughout the entire practice. 

 It made your stomach twist unpleasantly as you tried to remember if you had done something wrong.

 It wasn’t until the end of practice that you began handing out the chocolates to everyone as they went on their way home.

 It was just you and Nishinoya now, he was adjusting his bag over his shoulder when you approached him.

 “N-Noya.” you stuttered out, the bag of sweets resting in your palm and you extended out your arm. “These are for you.”

 “Thanks.” he muttered, half-heartedly taking the bag, and stuffing it into his uniform pocket. He brushed past you to leave until you caught his sleeve. 

 “Did I… do something to make you mad?” you asked in a small voice. He was being so cold to you… you didn’t understand why.

 “You should’ve told me you were already interested in someone else.” he snapped yanking his arm out of your grasp. 

 You blinked at him in confusion. “What are you talking -” “I saw that guy earlier! The one you gave those chocolates too.” he interrupted. “It was obvious that those weren’t obligatory chocolates like everyone else’s were! I thought that you might’ve liked me back but obviously you were just playing with my feelings!”

 You felt your lower lip quiver, tears gathering in your eyes at his harsh words. “You idiot Noya! Those chocolates were for you! He ate them before I could tell him that they weren’t his! I do like you!”

Nishinoya’s eyes widened at your confession, immediately feeling bad at how he was treating you. He reached for you, grabbing your wrist and yanking you into his arms. 

 “I’m sorry.” he murmured quietly, his hands rubbing your back soothingly. “I didn’t mean to make you cry… I misunderstood the situation. I’m sorry.”

 You sniffled, pulling back slightly to look at the libero. “You’re so stupid Noya, I was going to use those chocolates to confess to you and -”

 “I like you too.” he interrupted, a large smile stretching across his face. “I’ve liked you for a while now.”

 You stared into his dark eyes, blush creeping into your cheeks at his statement. You weakly slapped at his chest, grumbling to yourself at how annoying he was. 

 He laughed loudly before gently grabbing your face, making you meet his gaze, and then his soft lips pressed against the side of your cheek. 

 “I don’t like other guys touching what’s mine.” he stated smugly, pulling away as he stared at your flushed face.

 “Y-Yours!?”

 “Yeah.” he leaned, pressing his lips to your briefly before pulling away. “Mine.” he grinned cheekily at you before running off. 

 Leaving you standing with your fingers pressed lightly to your lips. 

 ***

 “So you think it’s okay to take my friend’s chocolate!? Those weren’t for you!”

 “I-I’m sorry! I didn’t know! I don’t even know who you are!”

 “HUH!?”

 “Tanaka! Shut up! You’re disturbing everyone’s lunch!”

 “... Sorry Daichi.”

Concerned Parents

Pairing: Din Djarin x Reader Desc: To get the child back after it was taken from you, Din has to remove the helmet to get into a place to find out where he was taken. He didn‘t think you‘d have to see him AND kiss him to keep the cover up. Warnings: flirting, sexual references, not proofread

„They won‘t let you into that place with your helmet on. It‘s like the Hutts but worse and more uptight.“ Fennec had explained about the shady looking hut you were all looking at. „I‘ll go in alone, you‘re my backup.“ Din looked at you, Fennec and Boba. Your eyes widened but you kept your mouth shut. You all wanted the baby, whatever it takes. Everyone agreed to his plan. Fennec and Boba would take long range, you‘d be close enough to barge in, just in case all hell broke loose. He left his visible armor in Boba‘s ship, put something on over his chest plate and hid his face under a cloth wrapped around his face, a thinner material around his eyes that he could look through. „Let‘s go.“

Fennec went on her position, Boba on the opposite hill. You followed a couple dozen steps behind Mando You saw him starting to remove his headwrap that he put on for around all of you. Out of respect you looked around instead, but you could stop letting your eyes wander past him, noticing brown fluffy hair. You wondered how it looked this good after all these hours under a helmet. You sat down under a lamp in earshot of the hut, noticing his deep voice talking to get into the place. A grunt of agreement came back. With a touch against your ear you started hearing out what was going on inside. „I heard you could lead me to any imperial ship.“ You finally made out his voice out of all of them. „You heard right. For the right price I‘ll be able to locate almost any ship.“ A scratchy voice answered. „I only have this amount of credits, but I know the ship has cargo worth more than two dozen times of it.“ You heard a grunt and a commotion. „You take me for someone taking upfront payment and leaving with the rest?“ He asked in a calmer voice. „I never break my part of a contract. I‘m a bounty hunter.“ „Oh?“ You sighed and got up, „You‘re an idiot. That‘s what you are.“ The weird tentacle guy at the entrance looked you up and down and then nodded to let you in. „We don‘t really like your kind here.“ „I‘ll be gone and back with more. I‘m not here for a bounty. I‘m here to get something that was stolen from me by a Moff.“ You saw the big man look him up and down hesitantly, „Which one?“ „Moff Gideon.“ Now the man looked angry. „Are you kidding me? That man is dead!“ „He isn‘t, he has recently appeared on Nevarro and took someone from me.“ „Someone you say?“ „My child. And I know it isn‘t dead.“ „You‘re making stuff up, my friend.“ The guards around the man tensed up. You came closer, throwing on your charm, „Heard you talking about Moff Gideon.“ On the table in front of the guy you put down the disc with the holo message. The whole message from the Nevarro base played off. „That‘s from about a week ago.“ You looked at the guy, still trying to respect Din‘s creed. „And who are you?“ He smirked at you, looking you up and down. „A concerned mother, one could say.“ You winked at him and sat down next to Din. „You a bounty hunter too?“ He looked between you both. „Nope. Actually used to be a bounty. Let‘s just say I‘m good at stealing.“ „Odd pair. Hm.“ He looked between you both again and you put your head on Din‘s shoulder and put your arm around him. „2500 credits up front for someone that wants to take on Gideon. That‘s...I don‘t have to tell you that is a low amount of credits, but I hate that guy as much as the next person. I‘ll help you, but you‘re gonna have to give me your code, because I will put a bounty on you if you don‘t pay up.“ The man didn‘t account for possible death, but you didn‘t mention that error of mind. „Kakiu? You know what to do.“ A small thin man nodded and ran off into a backroom. You felt Din tense up under your temple and gently went over his other shoulder with your hand. „Why would he keep your child alive?“ The man was nosy, but he had a valid question. „Our child has some specific mutation about his blood that they want to experiment with. Tried to hunt us for it for a while…well, and last week they got him. Now we‘re just trying to get him back any way we can.“ The man‘s face softened a bit, „Concerned parents, cute. But do you two really think you can breach a ship that big? That‘s wishful thinking. I‘d like to see you try tho.“ „You haven‘t seen him in his element. Never seen so many dead Imps in the vicinity of one man.“ Your head went up and you went to give him a kiss on the cheek, closing your eyes for the duration to not break his creed. „Kaiku will take a while, so why don‘t you tell me about it?“ The guy leaned back. „Which time? There were like, three.“ „The best one.“ „Well, last week it is, Gideon really wanted this kid, so he sent two ships full of Imps for us. Probably 120 or more. I shot some, a friend of us shot some, but this one probably took care of two thirds of them alone. He looks pretty good in a field of dead Stormtroopers with his blaster still sizzling.“ You felt his hand grab into your thigh and put your hand on his. „You took out quite a few yourself, don‘t sell yourself too short.“ You heard Din‘s warm voice next to you. You looked into your lap, „I really just want the kid back.“ You felt his lips on your temple, „I know, darling. I know.“ „Boss, Kaiku is having a bit of trouble.“ A guard came over and the guy in front of you grumbled and excused himself. You felt a thumb caress your hand and took the arm you had around him and snaked it around his arm to have it snug against you. „D‘you think the dude wants to secretly kill us?“ He chuckled. „I wouldn‘t be surprised, sadly.“ You mumbled back. „Didn‘t have to make me look this good in front of strangers.“ He whispered to you. „I didn‘t lie for a second, you know that damn well.“ You felt his other hand under your chin. „Looking down makes you look submissive around this folk, don‘t want that, we’re getting the kid back.“ You sighed in agreement and fluttered your eyes open slowly to see dark brown ones reflect back soft, concerned and determined. „I‘m sorry.“ You whispered, he knew what you meant. „It‘s okay. Don‘t beat yourself up over it.“ He offered a small smile. The guy came back after a while, „He‘ll be done in a while. Get yourself drinks and enjoy yourself, yeah?“ You nodded and dragged Din out of his seat towards the little bar. With your hands you ordered two small drinks while he put a respectful amount of distance between the both of you again. Not too long after you were in your thoughts sipping your drink. Not noticing the man on your left. „Hey sweetpea, you here often?“ A tipsy man of another species looked at you. „Nope.“ „Wanna change that?“ You felt an arm slinging around you from behind protectively. „Nope.“ You answered with a sweet smile and leaned against the broad chest behind you. „Aww, c‘mon.“ He didn‘t give up. Usually Din would have his scary demeanor in his beskar armor, but that wasn‘t his out card this time. „Does that man make you uncomfortable, dear?“ Your heart beat a little harder at the affectionate name. „He surely doesn‘t know how to treat me right.“ You sighed before unexpectedly being turned around. You let out a giggle and put your arms around his neck, „Now this guy is way better.“ He softened at your slightly tipsy behavior, not that he didn‘t enjoy the whole front of being partners in the first place. No. He absolutely didn‘t like that. At all. It was horrible. Super bad. „Oh, is he?“ The drunken guy was still commenting in. „Yeah.“ You whispered and Din didn‘t quite know which god put him into this situation, but suddenly his lips were on yours and he hated himself for liking it. He knew it was wrong. He knew it was just a front. He knew he just broke his creed for his child. He hated that he liked what his brain just decided to do. Someone cleared their throat next to you and you went apart, looking at the boss here. He handed you a data stick, „Gonna put it right on your ships control panel. Now I‘d like your code.“ Din obliged to the terms and gave him his code, you didn‘t know if it really was, but he gave one. You hoped it was just one of his old bounty‘s code. „See you again when you got the rest of that money.“ He nodded at the helmetless man and got a nod back. Not too long after you were dragged out of the hut by him. You helped him with his headwrap, not saying a word. He saw the guilt written on your face, but didn‘t say anything. „Say it.“ He whispered. „I hate that I broke your creed and liked it. I hate that I liked any of it.“ You said short and firm, as if you were scolding yourself. Silence. There was nothing else you could add. That‘s all you felt right now. „I feel the same.“ He answered after a while of you walking towards the rendezvous spot. „I mean, my god you look beautiful.“ The words burst out of your deepest soul and he came to a hold to look at you with his thin cloth for his eyes removed. „And I made you look.“ He sighed, „So please don‘t put this on yourself. You were just trying to help get Grogu.“ More silence between you for the way back. „I‘m sorry for flirting with you.“ You mumbled and looked away. You were just playing your part to de-escalate. „Ouch.“ He commented. „No, no, it‘s just. I. I don‘t know. I wasn‘t supposed to do that. It wasn‘t necessary for the mission.“ You stumbled over your words. „I‘m sorry that I kissed you.“ He answered and that felt like he just put a vibroblade through your heart. „I didn‘t mind. I think.“ You didn‘t even know what was and wasn‘t okay anymore. „I‘m sorry I‘d do it again.“ He chuckled and looked over to you as you walked. „Me too.“ You smiled back at his shimmering eyes and then back to where you were going. „I would do all of this again.“ He whispered with a sigh, more to himself than you. „For someone with a tin can on your head since your teen years you kiss pretty good.“ You grinned. No comment. „And you‘re kinda more fun when there isn‘t a visor between us. I can actually see your reaction. That‘s groundbreaking. I love it.“ You chuckled. „I have a lot to think through with my creed and what I just did.“ He added. „You‘ll make the right decision.“ You said calmly, grabbing his hand and squeezing it before letting it go as you stopped at the meeting point. „The decision might be led by what you just did to my mind.“ He laughed lowly, it sounded beautiful. You looked around for Boba and Fennec, nobody in sight, so you went to his back and kissed the sliver of exposed skin there. „Cyar‘ika!“ He said with a warning tone. You didn‘t know what that meant. „I‘m sorry, I like teasing when I know I have an effect.“ „Oh, have I awakened something in you?“ „If you didn‘t notice by the way I talked about you killing Imps, yes.“ „Well, good that we‘ll have to kill some more.“

— Time Jump to End of Chapter 16

You didn‘t think someone was still coming for Grogu from the Jedi Temple. Now you stood here with no child, but a dumb saber that Bo-Katan won‘t take. Seeing him broken, helmetless, exposed, but with all this armor and that saber. That reflected your feelings somehow. You knew this had to happen, but it broke a part of you anyway and made you vulnerable. You turned to look at Din, took his head into your hands and let his forehead gently fall against yours. „It‘s okay.“ You felt him shake and pull you close to his chest. „You‘re the only thing left.“ He whispered as the rest went ahead to meet Boba. „I won‘t leave you unless you ever want me to.“ You whispered back before he grabbed your face and put his desperation for home into a kiss. „We need a new ship.“ He murmured. „I might know how to steal one.“ You chuckled and caressed his cheek. „That‘s my girl.“ His thumb went over your lower lip. Where did he learn that? Was that allowed? „You look even better when you wear everything but the helmet.“ You bit your lip. „Is that your version of distraction?“ He huffed and you nodded with a chuckle. You liked flirting too much. With that you flew back to Nevarro and got a neat little ship, stolen by you and Greef. You made sure to fill it up with cozy things, reminders of what was and signs of hope for the future. For now you‘d stay a bit on Nevarro with it. He searched the whole thing for trackers after the horror of what happened to the crest, but after a couple days he finally settled in and removed his helmet around you. „Oh, hey good-looking man in beskar, are you here often?“ You grinned from your cot when he walked into the center room of the ship. „Depends on what you want from me.“ He chuckled and shook his head. „You look pretty tense, I‘m sure I could change that.“ Now he blushed at the possibilities crossing his mind. „I‘m intrigued, cyar‘ika.“ He smirked and came closer. „I was thinking cuddling, but judging by your face you have other plans.“ You laughed and stood up to knock against his chest plate. His armor was gone shortly after, „I love this.“ You scrunched your nose and hugged him close, you really did like this. He looked so human, so warm and huggable. His gloveless hands wandered down your back, stopping for a second, before wandering where they really wanted to go. You betted with yourself that he was secretly a grabby man after what happened in that hut. Turns out you were right. With a swift motion he hoisted you up to have you wrap your legs around him. „I like this,“ He mumbled and felt you smile against his neck. „Me too.“ Your hands wandered through his hair and you felt him relax even more. He sat down on your cot with you still wrapped around him. „You, um, have nice thighs.“ He pointed out sheepishly. „You know you can grab them anytime, right?“ You asked him. „Now I do.“ He huffed and gently caressed them before giving them a squeeze. „You can touch me all you want.“ You reassured him and felt him grab you by your hips so you untangled and he could fall back onto your cot with you on top of him. „That goes for you too, cyare.“ He pulled you closer by your chin. „What does that mean?“ „Beloved. Darling. Something like that.“ Now he was the one watching you get flustered and grinned. „Oh.“ You blinked a couple times, „You‘ve been saying that a lot.“ „Of course,“ he murmured and went through your hair. „Have you ever thought about settling on a planet?“ You mumbled, laying on his chest and looking up at him. „Once or twice. I think a lot of things would catch up to me.“ His voice hummed in his chest below you. „And creating a family?“ You whispered and saw him open one of his eyes. „I had one for a while, didn‘t I?“ You smiled at him and nodded. „You still have me. I wouldn‘t mind adopting another one.“ A chuckle escaped both of you. „Maybe one that isn‘t chased by the empire.“ He laughed lowly and went over your head gently. „We could make one too one day.“ You added as casual as possible and felt him tense under you. „Not like I have that many years left to do that.“ He pointed out with a huff. „Who said it would take many years?“ You whispered and crawled up on him to nuzzle into his neckline. „Where‘d you wanna settle?“ His arms snaked around you. „Preferably somewhere that isn‘t attacked every two years.“ Your muffled voice answered. „Now where‘s the fun in that, cyar‘ika?“ You kissed his neck and heard him hold his breath. „More than enough fun to have.“ You grabbed into his hair gently and felt his fingers grab into your hips. „I see.“ He murmured and closed his eyes again to enjoy your warmth. „Home is wherever you wanna go, my dear.“ He sighed and slowly dozed off.

Another Tedgens fic

Show Stoppin Number never happens here, it’s just the characters living in the fortress during the apocalypse. It starts after Bill and Paul leave to get Alice. The Professor never turns bad and instead kind of comes together with Ted (because this is a Tedgens fic duh). Also Bill and Alice survive (just because I want them to. It doesn’t have anything to do with the plot, but they deserve it). I put in Hidgens original backstory (the infectious disease researcher thing), and Ted has a booze problem because he’s been rejected a lot, so it‘s gonna be a little angsty I guess.

TW: Ted is an alcoholic and verbal abuse is mentioned. And lots of f-bombs again, sorry

Words: around 9500 (I didn’t plan this, it just happened, sorry)

“Oh..hi.” The professor turns around to see Ted in the doorstep of the kitchen, leaning against the wooden door frame. Paul and Bill have been gone for over an hour now and Emma gets increasingly more nervous, just sitting in the living room and staring at the wall. “Hello Ted.“ “What are you doing?“ “I‘m making coffee. Do you want one as well?“ “Nah, sticking to booze.” He‘s not that much of a coffee fan anyway. “Don‘t you think you‘ve had enough of that?“ “The world is ending, we’ll die anyway. Calm down.” Some time passes, while the Professor keeps pushing different buttons. Ted just kind of keeps staring at him, because he doesn’t know what else to do. He’s bored and while he’s actually been exploring the house till now, he doesn’t want to keep going. Lots of panic rooms, is all he’s going to say. “So.. you’re not in the lab?” “No.“ “Man, you don’t need Emma, do you?” Hidgens hesitates. “You don’t believe they will make it. And they won’t, it’s fucking obvious. You wanted to protect her, that’s alright.” “There’s still a chance-“ “Ugh, come on! We both know that there’s not. They are dead by now.” “Emma won’t give up, so I won’t do that either.” Ted breaks away from the door frame now and moves over to the Professor, leaning against the kitchen counter right next to him instead. “What is your actual name? Like your first name?” “Henry.” “Why is no one calling you that?” “No one has used that name in relation to me since.. that doesn‘t matter.” “Why?” “I don’t know, good God”, he mumbles, seemingly annoyed now. “Well can I?” Henry hesitates before he shakes his head. “No.” “Cool..Professor’s great too I guess. Just fucking long, but I’ll deal with it.” Silence begins to settle over the room. “So”, Ted starts again, eager to keep the conversation going, “like..why are you here?“ “I live here, Ted.“ “Yeah, you do.” He‘s too drunk for this. “Hey.” It’s Emma, appearing in the door frame now. “Emma! There you go.” Henry hands her a cup of coffee, before he reaches for his own cup. “I’ll be in the lab.” And with that, he’s gone. Emma leans out of the door and waits for him to really disappear in another door, before she focuses on Ted just to say: “What the actual fuck?” “What?” “Leave him alone.” “Calm down, barista! I was just talking to him”, Ted tries to defend himself. “No! No, you were flirting. Stop trying to get into his pants!” “Ugh, I wasn’t!” He was. Mostly because he’s bored, but also because Henry actually is hot. Just the way he moves around the room with such elegance and ease has aroused Teds interest. And Ted‘s drunk. He‘s so drunk, he‘s fucking smashed. “Don’t fucking lie to me. Promise you’ll leave him alone.” “Why do you care so much, Perkins?” “He..He’s Professor Hidgens! He‘s great and way too nice and he has the biggest heart, so don‘t you dare use him because you‘re fucking horny and smashed as fuck.“ “You really have the lowest opinion of me.“ “It‘s just..he‘s been through a lot alright? And he’s been living pretty isolated lately so if you’re actually gonna keep flirting, he’ll probably be into it. I just want you to think about whatever you’re doing, before you do something alright? So fucking sober up first. Leave him alone, if you just wanna fuck. Treat him the way he deserves to be treated, if you actually like him. If you don’t, I’ll fucking kill you.” “Woah! ..alright. Jesus!” That’s when the doorbell rings and Emma literally sprints to the door, meeting the Professor who did the same thing. Ted just kind of follows, not hurrying at all though, in case it’s aliens. “Who is it?”, the Professor suspiciously asks. “It’s Bill, Alice and me. We’re back.” It’s Paul's voice. “Thank god”, Emma mumbles, impatiently waiting until the Professor told Alexa to open the gates. Just a few seconds later, the three of them come in. Emma wants to run to Paul but the Professor holds her back, cocking his gun. “Sing the beginning of Moana!” “Professor! Not again!”, Emma whines. “Yes, again! Think about what would happen if we let those creatures in here again. The last time was a close-run!” The three new arrivals manage to stutter a few Moana quotes, but all in one they completely fail again, to everybody's relief. Hidgens lowers the gun and Emma runs to Paul. They embrace for way too long. Then there's Bill and Alice and Bill just kind of pulls Alice in a hug now. Her eyes are red and swollen, she obviously cried earlier. “Is everybody alright?”, the Professor asks around, after he made Alexa close the gates again. “Yeah”, Bill buries his nose in Alice hair, closing his eyes for a moment, holding her like she’s all he’s got, which, to be honest, is true. And then there’s Ted, just kind of awkwardly standing in the entrance hall with no one to embrace. He pauses for a few seconds, then he just turns around and goes back into the kitchen, mostly because he wants to be alone. - Ted does think about what Emma said, he thinks about it a lot throughout the next few days. And to be honest, that’s the reason he mostly spends time by himself, drinking a lot, drinking too much probably. But what else is he supposed to do? Emma, Paul, Bill and Alice keep having fun in a group of four, playing scrabble and shit, mostly to distract Alice from the fact, that her girlfriend died. They don’t ask Ted to join and he doesn’t ask them either, because to be honest, he really does not want to spend time with them. He barely sees Henry around the house, so he figured he’s probably in his lab, doing science stuff. Ted didn’t mind being alone in the beginning, but after three to four days, it does get pretty boring. He‘s lonely too, but he would never admit that. So he starts wandering around again until he finally ends up in the lab, registering Henry as soon as he entered. He’s sitting on a stool, completely focused on something, which is why he doesn’t react to Ted entering the lab. Ted just kind of stands there for a while, staring at Henry while he does whatever it is, he’s doing. Now he sighs. “What is it, Ted?” Ted flinches, because he didn’t think Hidgens noticed him at all. “Nothing..nothing. Just snooping around, you know?” “I really do not.” “What are you doing?” “I am trying to find a cure. This alien disease is a genetic reconstruction, but I‘ve been thinking that there might still be a little bit of individuality in every single one of these creatures. Therefore, I might be able to convert it again.” “A cure? You can do that?” “I just told you, Ted. I‘m trying.” “I see.” He steps closer, looking over Henrys shoulder now. “Ted.” “Mh?” “You’re completely distracting me.” “Because I’m so hot?” “No! ..because you are drunk and I can smell it.“ “Wow. Thanks for that.“ Henry gets up now and takes Teds arm. He pulls him back a few steps, before he reaches for some tape and tapes a barrier between two tables. “That is the closest you’re allowed to get, understood?” Ted raises his arms and shrugs. “Alright. Sorry.” Henry goes back to his stool and leaves Ted standing behind the taped barrier. “So when you find a cure-“ “If.” “If you find a cure.. you could still only save those who weren’t like actually killed, right?” “If you ask because of that Charlotte, she’s definitely dead.” “I didn’t.” He did. “She must have meant a lot to you, I’m sorry that I have had to shoot her. But even if I didn’t, Sam removed her guts. She would not have survived if it wasn’t for the apotheosis.” There’s some silence for a few seconds, then Ted says: “I didn’t like her like that. She didn’t mean a lot to me.” “I’m sorry then. But you seemed grief-stricken and miserable after I shot her.” “I wasn’t.” He was. Not because he loved her, but because he felt guilty. He‘s the one who left her alone with Sam anyway. Just because she hurt his feelings. “Okay.” “She loved Sam. He was her husband. We just screwed around, that’s all.” “You did like her.” “No.” “Yes.” “I mean, she was alright, but it’s not like I fucking loved her or shit like that. I don’t do that.” “Don’t do that?” “I don’t love people.” “That is not something, people choose to do.” “I do.” “Alright then.” Henry focuses on his work again and that’s when Emma steps in. “Hey Professor.. and Ted.” “Emma, hey.” She ducks under the tape. “You’re not allowed to do that”, Ted quickly says. “Yes I am.” “No one is, except for Henry.” Emma turns around to him for a moment and raises her eyebrows, after he said the name. “Actually”, Henry says now, “Everybody is, except for you. And please don’t call me Henry.” Ted just stares at him for a moment, with his jaw dropped. “Alright.“ He slowly catches himself again. “But that was fucking mean.“ “I’m sorry Ted. What is it Emma?” “Do you have like a first aid kit or something? Bill accidentally cut his finger and we can’t find one.” “Yes, I do. Hold on, I’ll get it.” He gets up and leaves the lab. Emma follows him, but pauses next to Ted for a second. „Henry? So you‘re fighting for first name base now?“ „Looks like it.“ „Good luck, I guess. No one calls him that.“ „I will.“ “Yeah, sure.” With that she follows the professor. - Ted keeps visiting Henry in his lab over the next few days and they actually do talk a lot, with Henry engaging more an more. Ted also catches himself crushing on Henry, more than he thought and more than he can handle. Mostly because Henry doesn’t seem extremely annoyed by everything he does. He actually talks to him in a normal way, even when Ted says something wrong. He laughs about it, when Ted jokes around too. And let’s be honest, he’s so fucking hot. Ted tries flirting again, but he’s miserable at that, especially when he’s drunk. And Henry barely engages in it, which is why Ted stops after two or three days. He doesn’t want to bother Henry, who’s obviously not interested. It bothers Ted, it really does, but he accepts it, because he can’t force Henry to like him, right? It especially bothers him, that Emma was wrong about Henry having lived isolated and therefore being into it, if Ted keeps flirting. It gave Ted hope, but apparently Henry’s really not into it at all. So being his friend is alright too, Ted figured. He’s never really had a close friend. Charlotte was probably the closest. He thought of Paul as a friend, but Paul mostly seems rather bothered by all of his actions (not unlike everybody else). It’s not Teds fucking fault that he never really thinks before he opens his mouth. So he spends most of his time in the lab with Henry, whom he does have a crush on (which he perfectly hides) and tries to become his friend, even if Henry keeps asking Ted about himself. Ted’s never really been asked about himself and he really doesn’t want to. There’s so much he doesn’t want to talk about. And now Henry just keeps asking. “Are you drunk again?” “No? No.” “Don’t lie to me Ted.” “I guess.” Henry looks up, eyeing Ted skeptically. “Are you alright?” “Yeah, sure. Just bored.” Henry raises his eyebrow, before turning away from Ted and focusing on his work again. For some reason, Henry’s just always working, always there, always in the lab. Ted also noticed that he looks tired. More and more tired as the days pass and he can’t help but wonder, when was the last time Henry actually slept? Because he never seems to go to sleep. And every time Ted asks him about it, Henry just shrugs and tells him, he’s not tired at all. Obviously, both of them carry emotional baggage, neither of them wants or dares to talk about. - “You alright?”, Ted asks again, the next time, he’s at the lab with Henry. Henry looks particularly worn out that day and he barely spoke, only nodding at whatever Ted said. Sometimes Ted’s even gotten a monosyllabic answer, but that’s not the standard today. “Absolutely”, Henry mumbles. “When was the last time you slept? You look like shit.” “You really are empathetic, aren‘t you?“ He sounds so pissed. “I‘m sorry. But you look so fucking tired today. That doesn‘t look healthy anymore, seriously.“ “Just leave. Can‘t you see that you bother me with your presence?“ “I’m worried about you alright? You’re always in here, I never see you eat and I never see you sleep.” “And I never see you sober.” “Well, I’m fucking sorry I asked!” “Just leave please.” “No.” Henry looks up, for the first time now. “I am serious, Ted. Leave.” “No, I’m not gonna fucking leave.” Suddenly he remembers what Emma said to him in the kitchen, a few days ago. He’s been through a lot. Like what the fuck has he been through? It must have been hard, because he’s obviously not alright. Henry has turned away again. He tears his hair now and pinches his eyes. “There’s something I’m not seeing. I’m too stupid, Leighton would have known”, he quietly mumbles. “Who the fuck is Leighton now?” “I told you to leave.” Ted ignores Henrys answer and tears the tape barrier down instead, to go through. “Stop right there Ted.” Henry gets up and Ted comes to a stop, staring at Henry now, while he furiously crumbles up the paper he wrote on and ditches it into the trash can. “Henry-“ Ted watches nervously as Henry keeps going, keeps destroying everything he worked on in the last few days.   “Henry stop. I’m serious”, he says now, while Henry wipes off everything he wrote on the whiteboard, starting completely anew. “Henry!“ He finally comes to a stop, turning around to Ted. “Don’t call me that.” “I’m sorry.” “I won‘t ever be able to do it.” “It’s okay.” “It is not. I won‘t save one person. I have miserably failed again. I let them die.” “Jesus, calm down man. Is this still about the apocalypse?” “It is not, of course!” Absolute devastation shows in his face now. His eyes are watery and while he stares at Ted like that, the bags under his eyes seem darker than ever. “It’s not”, he mumbles again, before he attacks his scientific equipment, breaking beakers and flasks now, by throwing them either on the floor or against the wall. “Woah, shit“, Ted mumbles, before he rushes to Henry to pull him away from the glassware. He manages to hold his arms down, by pulling him into a weird sideways hug. “Stop!”, he just whispers, pulling him even closer, because god, Henry’s strong and Ted lost control over his strength, because he’s drunk and therefore Henry’s almost able to break out of the hug, reaching for another flask now. Ted quickly takes it from him. “It’s alright! You don’t have to do anything if you can’t or.. don’t want to. You don’t owe this to anyone. Fucking calm down now.” That’s when Henry stops resisting and starts sobbing instead. He slowly lets himself sink into the hug now, suddenly appearing so small, even though he’s actually taller than Ted. Ted softly starts stroking his back and the back of his head, trying to make him calm down a little. He also places a soft kiss on Henrys head, regretting it as soon as his lips hit Henrys hair, because what the fuck was that supposed to be? Henry breaks away from the hug and takes a few steps back, stumbling a little, which is why Ted dives forward to grab his arm, so he doesn‘t fall. “Seriously man, I’m not a doctor or anything, but I think you have a burnout”, he says, trying to ignore that his instincts just made him awkwardly kiss Henrys hair. Henry wipes the tears from his cheeks and turns away. “I do not. I’m fine.” “When was the last time you slept?“ “I don’t know. Stop asking so many questions.” Henry frees his arm from Teds grip, by energetically pulling it back now. Then he starts massaging his temples, like he has a headache. “Can you leave?” “Do you have a headache?“ “No, just leave.” “Why?” “I’ll leave then.” “You’re such a dramatic bitch, you know that?” There’s not even a reason for that. Teds so used to being mean as a defense mechanism, that he only ever realizes he was, after he already said something. But he can’t take it back now. He doesn’t apologize either. He’s way too proud to admit that it was wrong and it’s embarrassing too. Henry sighs and leaves the lab now, leaving Ted alone. Ted stands there for a while. He feels the lump in his throat, he knows that, for some reason, he’s about to cry. Suddenly, he feels lonelier than ever. He feels more rejected than ever, even though it’s his fault. It always is. Apparently it also was, when his parents kicked him out at seventeen, after verbally abusing him for years. He does know what rejection feels like. Maybe that’s why he’s got all those emotional walls build up higher than the empire state building. He hasn’t cried in years, but now his vision rapidly becomes more and more blurry as the tears gather in his eyes. He‘s sad and angry and completely disgruntled. And when he realizes that he still holds the flask, he took from Henry, he just smashes it against the wall, as the anger and the booze take over his mind. Then he starts crying, because he can‘t hold it back anymore. And consequently he just stands there, sobbing and crying and staring at the pieces of broken glass, he and Henry left on the floor. “Oh.” He flinches and quickly turns around, realizing Alice came in. “I was just..”, she hesitates, “just exploring the house.” He never really talked to her. He just saw her a few times, when she picked up Bill from work. And of course, they ran into each other in the last few days, but Ted doesn’t trust her enough that he’s okay with her seeing him cry. He’s not okay with anybody seeing that, to be honest. “Are you okay?” Ted nods. He quickly wipes the tears from his face and forces a smile. “Nah, you’re not. It’s Ted, right?” “Yeah. Can you just leave me alone? And.. fucking forget about it, too?” She hesitates but she nods ultimately, before mumbling a quiet “Sorry” and leaving the lab. - The next day, Ted goes back to the lab. He planned to apologize, even though he’s probably not gonna have the guts to actually do it. He delayed it as long as possible, which is why it’s late in the afternoon by now. But Ted really couldn‘t bear loosing Henry now. He‘s the only friend he has, if they actually are friends and it‘s not just Ted’s wishful thinking. When he enters the lab, he sees Henry sleeping, with his head resting on the table. Ted hesitates for a moment and thinks about coming back later. But that position does look so fucking uncomfortable and Ted can’t bear leaving Henry like that. He quietly taps over to him and touches his shoulder, carefully shaking it too, when Henry doesn’t react. He quietly groans and mumbles something, before he pushes himself up and opens his eyes. He looks sleepy, which is cute, but he also still looks tired as shit. “Ted?” “Yeah. You should go to sleep. Like in a bed, you know?” “No, I’m good.” “Jesus, Henry! Come on.” He pulls him up and carefully proceeds to pull him out of the lab now. “You‘re going to sleep and eat and you‘re not allowed to step through the tape barrier anymore.“ “Ted this is my lab.“ “I don‘t care.“ Ted kind of just pulls Henry through the house, to his bedroom, pushing him on the bed, as soon as they‘re in there. “Woah“, Henry mumbles. “What?“ “That push was kind of sexual.” “Jesus, Henry! I didn’t mean to.” Henry just kind of sits there, while Ted stands there, trying to find the guts to actually apologize. Henry goes first, right before Ted was about to open his mouth (he really was). “I’m sorry Ted.” “Don’t be.” “No, I really am.“ “It‘s alright.” “I should not have been so vicious to you. You were only trying to help.” “I was, but I mean, I wasn’t right either. I should have respected your request, your boundaries, you know? And you were right..about me being drunk a lot. I am.” “Do you want to talk about it?” “I really don’t.” Because deep down, Ted believes that Henry doesn’t actually want to know. He believes that Henry just asked because it‘s polite and he‘s polite. He‘s so polite and nice and.. good. He‘s a good person. Ted doesn‘t believe that he can say the same thing about himself. He‘s an asshole, a fucking creep (Emma called him that one and she was right) and he’s always saying the wrong things, using the wrong words. “I’m sorry for how I behaved. And for what I called you”, he finally blurts out. “It’s alright. I would have considered it funny, if it wasn’t for me being angry.” “You think me calling you a bitch was funny?” “Yes.” Ted smiles now. “Well, you’re welcome then.” “But don’t call met that again.” “I won’t. I actually respect you a lot you know. I was just.. mad I guess. And it was the first thing that came to my mind.” “It’s alright.” Everything is said now, but for Ted it still feels wrong to just leave. Henry’s sitting there, looking anywhere but at Ted, suddenly deep in thought and looking like a picture of misery again. “Are you hungry?”, Ted gets himself to ask. “Not at all.” “Alright.” After a few more seconds of hesitation, Ted decides to sit next to Henry, careful to keep a little distance between the two of them. He’s afraid to get too close and scare him off again, like he did when he kissed his head. He does not want to be pushed away again, once hurt enough. Also, he wants to give Henry space and respect his boundaries. But Henry doesn‘t seem bothered by it now. Because after sitting in silence for a few seconds, he actually starts talking. “Ted, did you know that I was an infectious disease researcher in my earlier years?” “No. You were?” “Yes. We were a team of seven. They were my friends.” “What happened?” “They got infected. I had to quarantine them in the lab and then I tried to find a cure.” “But you didn’t.” Ted looks up, afraid that he’s right. “You are right, I did not. I let them die. One after another until all of them were gone.” “But..but that’s not your fault though.” “It is, Ted.” Ted keeps quiet, thinking for a moment, before mumbling a confused “No?”. He seeks Henrys gaze, before he continues. “No, how much time did you have? Like a few fucking days? That’s impossible.” “It is. But still.” “Alright.” Ted reaches for Henrys hand. “You have to let this go. It’s not your fault. At least you tried to find a cure. It’s not like you are the one who infected them and they were not your responsibility. They were responsible for themselves and they knew the risk, right?” Henry just stares at Teds hand, touching his, and Ted quickly lets go of it, pulling his hand back. “They did, but they were my friends. I should have.. I should have saved them. I just gave up at some point”, he slowly continues, still staring at his hand, which now lays on his lab alone, lonely too maybe. “It’s still not your fault. Jesus, Henry! ..I mean Professor. Sorry.” Henry sniffles now and Ted figures he’s about to cry. He wants to hug him, but he doesn’t dare. So he just sits there, next to Henry but all by himself. Then Henry slowly moves over to him and leans his head against Teds shoulder, low-key reaching for his hand again and interlocking their fingers. He seems nervous and uncertain while doing it, which is why Ted hesitates, before giving in and leaning against Henry, gently squeezing his hand too. Henry slowly seems to relax now as he fully leans into Ted. “Henry’s fine”, Henry mumbles. “What?” “You can call me Henry. I hereby give you my permission.” “Oh..okay. I will then.” Teds heart is beating so damn fast. Faster than a cheetah can run and louder than gunfire probably. “There is a risk of it all happening again. That’s why I want to find a cure. What if one of you gets infected? Especially Emma or..or you.” “Me?” “Yes, Ted.” “Like.. you care about me?” His heart makes a little salto now, just thinking about it. Maybe Henry does like him a little. There‘s still a chance, right? “Of course I care about you.“ “As much as you care about Emma? She did bring you grocerys once.“ Henry chuckles now. “Ted, Emma is like a daughter to me.“ “So that‘s a no then?“ “No, I.. I don’t know.“ He looks up now, his eyes meeting Teds. And he‘s automatically so close, that Ted forgets to breath for a second there. They just stare at each other, then Ted leans closer. As if by reflex, not because he planned to. Henry shies away and stares at Ted afterwards, with big eyes. Not exactly shocked but certainly surprised. “Oh“, he mumbles. “Sorry“, Ted whispers, quickly turning away and pulling his hand out of Henrys. “Are you drunk?” “No.” It’s the truth. He‘s really not. “Did you.. did you want to..?” “I gotta go.” Ted gets up as quick as possible and goes for the door. Mostly because he feels like crying again and he really does not want to do that in front of Henry. “Wait.” “Just go to sleep, alright?” And with that he carefully closes the door. - It doesn’t take long, before he gets back to the booze. Just about an hour. Every bit of care he had for himself or his body is gone now. It’s late and everybody’s already asleep and Ted is totally plundering the bar. It’s not because Henry rejected him, not on the main anyway. If Henry’s not into him, that’s alright. Ted’s not that desperate, he’ll get over it. And he‘s not even sure what his feelings towards Henry are exactly. He hasn‘t figured it all out yet, so maybe there‘s still the possibility of withdrawing them. The feeling of those weird-ass feelings being left unrequited did hurt a little, that‘s for sure. He likes Henry so much. And he craves the nearness of someone, probably anyone really, but especially Henry. But someone as good and smart as Henry must probably have enough common sense to not like Ted, that‘s for sure. And he‘s okay with it. He’s not mad at Henry or anything, it’s not like it’s his fault. It’s just now, that it’s literally the end of the world, he realized that he doesn’t have anyone. He has lived more than half of his life without any contact to his parents and to be honest, it was still the better part. But now that Charlotte’s gone, he doesn’t even have anyone to screw around with anymore. That was the closest thing he had to intimacy and he lost that too. He really liked her. It wasn’t love, but maybe he could have made it work, if it wasn’t for that fucking scumbag Sam. She did deserve better. Better than Sam, but also better that Ted, if he’s being honest. Ted’s always been coping with alcohol and that’s what he’s doing now too. It’s the apocalypse anyway. They’ll die soon, so why the hell would he still be be committed to care for his health? He never really did, but still. - Ted stays up the whole night, sitting on the floor by the bar, staring at the wall, holding a bottle of booze. He dozes off every now and then, but he always wakes up again, about half an hour later. He‘s still there, after the sun has risen again. He‘s not sure how o‘clock it is, he completely lost his concept of time. “Ted?” It’s fucking Emma Perkins. He’s really not in the mood for another threat. He won’t get close to Henry anyway. Like ever. “Fuck off”, he mumbles. “Are you okay?” “Yeah.” “Ted, seriously. How much did you drink?” “Dunno, man.” “Alice?”, she calls out now, leaning into the corridor. “Yeah?” “Can you get the Professor?” “Sure.” “I’m fucking fine.” Ted tries to get up now, but his vision only gets more blurred, which is why he gives up almost immediately. Emma comes over to him and kneels in front of him. “Hey Ted?” “Mh?” “Fucking look at me, please.” “Why?” He looks up now, locking his eyes with hers for as long as he can bear it. Then he looks over to the door, registering Henry in the frame. “What is it, Emma?” “He’s fucking smashed. Like more than in general, I think.” Henry comes over to them, sitting next to Ted now. “I said I’m fine”, Ted repeats. “He couldn’t even get up”, Emma notes. “Can you get water? And bread?”, Henry asks. “Yeah.” She gets up and disappears. “Hey Ted.” “Hi.” “You’ve had enough, come on.” He reaches for the bottle and places it out of Teds reach. Ted’s too weak to stop him, too weak to care too. “Why the fuck do you care?”, Ted just mumbles, “or are you just afraid that I’m gonna throw up on your floor?” “Don’t be that way now.“ “Sorry for asking. No one ever fucking cared, s’all.” Ted tries to get up again now and he actually manages to do it. Really slowly though and he has to hold onto the bar not to fall, but it‘s alright if he ignores the headache and the fact that everything is blurry as fuck. “Ted, I..“ Henry got up to and tries to sustain Ted, by grabbing his arm and placing his other hand on Teds waist. “This is fine, I’m fine”, Ted mumbles, while he tumbles back and squeezes his eyes in order to gain a clear and sharp vision. „Do you want to talk about it?“ „About what?” “About your drinking problem, which clearly has its root in an experience from your past.” “Jesus Doc.” “It’s alright, I’ll listen to everything you want to talk about.” “Why would you want to hear that when I don’t even want to think it?” Ted gets louder now and more upset. “I can tell you, you know! I can tell you about how.. how my fucking parents kicked me out when I was seventeen. About feeling like a fucking loner all the time! Oh poor fucking Ted, get a hold of yourself!“ He‘s angry now and too drunk to care that he actually told someone. Henry just looks at him for a moment, sympathetically. “Why did they kick you out?” “‘Cause I’m.. fucking bi. They didn’t want that shit in their house. I mean they never wanted me anyway. It was a mistake.” “What was?” “I was. You know, my birth. I guess the fucking condom broke or something. I wish it didn’t.” “You are not a mistake.” “Well thanks, I guess, but I’m a sleazeball and that’s just.. that’s it.” “Oh Ted.“ “Told you I’m fine.” “You are not but that’s alright.” Ted hesitates, looking up now. “I’m.. I’m just..” He stares at Henry while he focuses on not crying. He blinks a lot and squints his eyes, quietly sniffling too. Then the first tear makes its way out of Teds eye, running over his skin and he just gives up. “Good God”, Henry mumbles, as Teds whole body begins to shake under the weight of his heavy sobs. Henry moves closer to Ted and pulls him in a hug. Ted lets himself fall against Henrys chest. He places his head against Henrys shoulder, sobbing now. His tears begin to soak through Henrys black turtleneck, but Henry doesn‘t seem to care. He simply pulls Ted even closer, slowly stroking his back now. “I care about you, Ted. Alright?”, he whispers, after quite some time. “Come on. I annoy you and that’s it.” “No you don’t.” “I do. I annoy everybody. It’s alright, I’m annoying as fuck. I annoy myself sometimes.” “You don’t bother me in any way, I enjoy every minute I spend with you. I just.. I am not good at showing this kind of admiration. And you make me feel confused.” Ted hesitantly looks up. „How the hell do I confuse you?” Henry places his hands against Teds temples now and gently tries to dry Teds cheeks with his thumbs. “I don’t know, Ted. I get nervous and clumsy when you are near me. And I can’t be that way in the lab.” “Oh.” That’s when Emma comes back. “Alright, I’ve got bread and-“ She hesitates, when she sees how close they are. Henry breaks his gaze from Teds, lets go of his face and looks at Emma. “Thank you Emma.” She puts it down on the surface of the bar, mumbling a quiet “There you go”, before she quickly leaves the room, uncertainly eyeing Ted, who’s still gazing at Henry. “I’m so into you”, he mumbles now. “What?” “I’m into you. Did you know that?” “Yes..no.. I mean yes I did, but only since you tried to kiss me yesterday.” Henry blushed while saying that and it‘s certainly the cutest thing Ted has ever seen. “But I.. I tried to flirt”, Ted notes. “I believed you did that because you were drunk.” “You’re an idiot. I wasn’t that drunk.” “You are drunk right now.” “But I’m of sound mind, seriously.” “I wouldn’t dare to hope that you actually like me. I‘m too old.” “But I like you. It’s just ten years.” “I‘m afraid it’s a little more than that.” “I don’t care either way.” Ted leans closer, to finally kiss Henry but Henry carefully pushes him back. “I’m sorry Ted, but you are too drunk for that.” “Don’t worry, you’ve got my consent. I want to kiss you so bad.” Henry slightly smiles now, blushing even more. “No, I’m sorry. ..and I’m sorry for yesterday.” “For what now?” “When I shied away. But I have to say, I didn’t expect it by any means.” “It’s alright, we can kiss now.” “Ted, no.. come on.” He reaches for the glass of water, Emma brought and gives it to Ted. “Drink up. At once.” “I can’t drink that quick.” “You surely can with booze.” “But not with water.” “Then drink it slowly, good God.” He waits, while Ted slowly slurps the water. “Alright”, Ted finally says, after a few sips. “You didn’t even drink half of it.” “I did!” Henry chuckles now. “No”, he contradicts before taking the water from him and holding the bread basket in front of him instead.   “You’re not gonna make me eat all of that, are you?” “Just one.” “Don’t force me.” “Ted, come on. Please.“ Ted pouts, but he reaches for a slice and takes a bite. “Are you happy now?” “That was one bite.” “Alright. Jesus, you’re bossy.” Ted somehow manages to eat the whole thing, emptying the glass too. “Do you feel better now?”, Henry asks afterwards. “Nah, I feel like I’m gonna throw up.” “Please don’t.” “I can’t control that. ..But I think I won’t.” “It is very likely the best, if you sleep it out.” “I’m not tired.” “Did you sleep at all tonight?” “A little.” “Right here on the floor?” “I guess.” “Come here.” Henry offers his hand, to keep Ted steady. Ted is still struggling to keep his balance. It was easier in the hug, when he could lean against Henry, but now that Henry let go of him, everything started to spin again. “Ted, are you alright?“ He slowly realizes, how much he clung to Henrys arm as he tried not to fall over. “Yeah.. a little dizzy.“ Henry places his arm around Teds waist and pulls him closer. He maneuvers Ted to one of the guest rooms, where he’s normally sleeping, when he’s not sleeping on the floor next to the bar. Ted stumbles a lot over his own feet but they eventually make it. Ted would probably never admit it to Henry, but he’s so fucking tired. And because of that, as soon as he sits on the mattress, he’s as good as gone. “Ted?” “Mh?” “Good Night.” Ted smiles. “It’s morning.” “Yes. Anyway.” “Are you gonna kiss me good night or nah?” He’s not sure where that courage came from, but it’s probably the booze. Henry chuckles and actually gets closer to place a quick kiss on Teds forehead. “Go to sleep now”, he whispers, before he disappears. - After he woke up it‘s six am. Ted‘s wide awake, but way too weak to actually get up, so he just spends about two hours laying there, thinking a lot. Thinking about Henry. Did whatever Henry told him yesterday mean he likes him? Like that he actually like-likes him? It sounded that way. But it‘s also possible that Ted dreamed all of that. It‘s too good, to actually be true, isn‘t it? Two hours after waking up, Ted spends another half hour trying to get himself to get up, despite the headache and the vertigo. He tumbles into the shower and stands under the steaming hot water for way too long, before he forces himself to stop. It‘s about nine am now and he can hear the others in the kitchen, but he hesitates to join them. Emma saw him cry, which is so fucking embarrassing and God knows what Henry thinks about him, now that he was so shamelessly honest. He probably just likes him as a friend. He cares about him in a friendly way. Ted was drunk and he probably over-interpreted everything Henry said. Ultimately, he decides to join them anyway, who cares if it‘s gonna be awkward? (He does, he cares so much, but he‘ll try to seem cool and relaxed.) When he enters the kitchen, Henry and Emma are doing the dishes. Of course Emma‘s there. She‘s always there. Alice is there too, just leaning against one of the counters, while talking to Emma. “Hey“, Ted mumbles, when no one reacts. Henry looks up and smiles. “Ted! How are you?“ “I feel like shit, to be honest.“ Not just physically too. “Do you want a coffee?” “No..no.” He nervously eyes Emma and Alice, who stopped talking to stare at him. He knew, it’d be awkward. He hesitantly steps closer to Henry, leaning against the kitchen counter next to him, leaning over to him to quietly say: “I.. can’t exactly recall everything, but, you know.. did I say what I think I said?” “You’ll have to be more precise.” “Jesus, Henry, you know what I mean.” “You mean, when you said you liked me?” “Exactly.” “And then you tried to kiss me.” “Jup.” “You don’t have to blush Ted.” “Well I didn’t fucking mean to.” Henry smiles now and finally looks up. “Alright, this is where we leave”, Emma notes loudly and Ted flinches, because he totally forgot about her and Alice. They leave and Henry continues. “I mean, don’t be embarrassed.” “But I am. It’s embarrassing.” “It’s not. Did you mean it?” Ted hesitates, looking anywhere but at Henry now. He thinks about lying, but where’s the point? “Or was it the alcohol speaking?”, Henry goes on asking. “It’s the truth”, Ted quietly admits, still not daring to look at Henry. “You do like me?” “Yeah.” “Good.. good.” “Why is that good?” “Why do you think?” “I don’t know?” “I like you as well.” “Oh?” “I like you Ted.” “Like.. in a romantic kinda way? Like a lover?” Henry smiles now while watching Ted, obviously amused. “Like a lover?” Ted feels dumb for asking. Of course not. Of course he doesn’t. “Yes. I suppose like a lover”, Henry continues, seemingly deep in thought now. Oh. Teds brain just stops working for a moment, he stares at Henry instead. Especially his lips. Fucking shit, his lips. They look so soft. He bets they are. “So you’re into me?”, he asks again, still too startled to actually believe his ears. ”I am.” “You are.” Henry moves closer to Ted now, his hand moving up to the collar of his shirt, nervously fiddling with the fabric. He gets so close, that Ted can feel his breath on his lips and he’s already loosing his mind, good God. “Henry?“, he still asks. Quietly. It’s more of a whisper. “Mh?“ “You sure?” Henry smiles now, avoiding Teds gaze, mostly because he’s indecently staring at his lips instead. “Yes.” They stare at each others lips for as long as they can bear it. Ted gives up first. He leans to Henry and pushes his lips onto Henrys soft ones. They really are as soft as they looked. Henrys hand moves up from Teds shirt collar, going for his hair instead and pulling him closer into a second kiss. Ted backs away a little, afterwards, and just stares at Henry for a few seconds. He’s overwhelmed by absolutely everything that’s going on inside his mind, not able to think one clear thought. “Holy shit, fuck“, he mumbles. “I rate that as a positive?” “You better fucking believe it.” He leans closer and they kiss again. This time, they keep going for quite a while, keep kissing. The kisses grow more and more passionate too, more heated. Teds hand goes for Henrys waist now and he gently pushes him against the kitchen counter, stepping closer. “I’ve been waiting so fucking long for this“, Ted mumbles now, against Henrys lips, “You could have dropped hints, you know.” “I know but I did not mean to like you. You said you don’t do love.” “Ugh, yeah, you’re right, I said that.” “Do you still mean it?” “I don’t think so. Shit, I really like you.” Henry smiles now and bites his lip, in a completely innocent way but it’s still hot. “Come here”, Ted mumbles, before pulling Henry closer. Henry does, pushing his lips against Teds again and running his fingers through Teds damp hair, completely messing it up. Ted leans closer to him, not yet (or maybe never) having enough of Henrys contiguity. His sanity is completely gone by now. He just lets Henry do whatever he’s doing to him, that makes him feel so jittery and warm and fuzzy. They stop, to breath, because apparently they both forgot. They are audibly breathing now, while still holding onto each other, with their eyes still closed, their foreheads touching. “Ted..“ Henry slowly removes his hands from Teds hair, carefully evening it too. “Huh?“ “Good God.” His hand runs down over Teds chest now, before he wraps his arms around Teds upper body. He simply kisses Ted again, while unobtrusively shoving his hand into the back pocket of Teds pants and pulling him closer. After that kiss, they just stand there, still embracing each other, with Ted resting his head on Henrys shoulder and Henry leaning his head against Teds. “Ted?” Ted smiles. “Yeah?” “You can always talk to me, you know that.” “So do you. To me, I mean, you can talk to me, not to yourself. You can also talk to yourself, but-“ “Yes, I understood. Thank you Ted.” “You’re welcome”, he mumbles, before looking up, “It’s your hand.” “What?” “You put your hand in my back pocket and now I’m not able to form a sentence anymore.” Henry chuckles, pulls it out and, just seconds later, completely breaks away from Ted. “You have my deepest apologies.” “No, I didn’t tell you to stop hugging me! Come back.” “Good God, you‘re despotic“, he mumbles as he pulls Ted closer again. “I‘m really not“, Ted contradicts. He lets his hand run up to Henrys temple now, before he leans closer and starts placing kisses on his cheek and jawline. “Ted?” It’s Bill. “Yeah.” He turns around to look at him, still pretty close to Henry, with Henrys arm still wrapped around Teds waist. “Oh”, Bill mumbles, obviously taken aback and overwhelmed. He frowns then. “Since when are you two..going steady?“ Ted turns to Henry and they stare at each other, quietly asking for an answer. Are they going steady? “Dad, leave them alone.” Alice appeared behind Bill and carefully reaches for his arm to pull him out of the kitchen. “They were totally making out in here.” “Alice!” Bill looks at Ted, apologetically but also surprised. Ted chuckles. “Come on”, Alice prompts again and Bill finally gives in, following her into the corridor. As soon as they’re gone, Ted turns back to Henry. “So..” He starts fumbling with Henrys hair, his arm resting on Henrys shoulder again. “So?” “Are we going steady? You know, are we dating?” “You ask that like you are afraid, I’ll say yes.” “No! Fuck, no! I.. I never really dated anyone, that’s all.” “And you don’t want to start?” “No, I want you. I want to date you so bad, Henry.” Henry chuckles now. “Alright then Ted.” “I’m so fucking nervous, that’s all. I’m sorry.” “Don’t be.” “Sorry or nervous?” “Both.” “I’ll try.” Henry smiles and Ted starts melting. Metaphorically of course. “You wanna kiss again?”, he asks. Henry nods. “Yeah.” - Dating Henry is even more great that Ted thought it would be. They cuddle a lot. Like a lot a lot. By now they are almost always touching in some way, holding hands or at least standing close enough for their shoulders to touch. Ted‘s not sleeping in his own bed anymore too, instead he‘s sleeping all cuddled up with Henry. And he would never admit it, not yet anyway, but he thinks he might be in love. It‘s only been a week, but every time Henry enters a room Ted‘s in, he gets all jittery and nervous. Henry went back to looking for a cure in the lab, but not after promising Ted to take it easy. Ted‘s about to visit him when Emma stops him from the living room. „Hey Ted?“ She steps into the corridor. He stops, but doesn‘t hurry to turn around to her. He‘s not sure how much everybody knows about Henry and him being a thing, but Emma must at least suspect it, because to be honest, they are not as sneaky as they think they are. “Where are you going?“ “Henry.“ That name earns a raised eyebrow from Emma. “It‘s Henry now?“ “Seems like it.“ “So you guys are together?” “Why do you care?” Ted goes full defense real quick. He’s always been that way. “I..was just asking.” “Listen Emma, fucking kill me if you want to but I actually like him.” “I’m not gonna fucking kill you. I wanted to apologize.” “What?” “I’m sorry for being so mean and everything. I had the lowest opinion of you and I was wrong. I have never seen Henry that happy, so..thanks for that.” “I’m not dating him to please you.” Her face lights up. “So you are dating?” “Yeah..yeah, we are.” “Cool.” “Cool?” “Yeah.” “I’ll go then.” “Alright.” - They’ve been together for about a month now. It’s late in the evening, everybody went to sleep but Henry never appeared, so Ted figured he’d look for him. When he enters the lab, Henry just sits there, doing nothing but staring at a flask filled with something. “You alright?” Henry flinches and halfway turns to Ted who came closer and now puts his arms around Henry from behind, resting his head on Henrys. “Yes.” “Sure?” “I think I was wrong about the reversibility of the apotheosis. Those reconstructions clearly are not reversible. I can see it now, clear as the day.” “I’m sorry.” Ted places a kiss on Henrys head. “You are not the one who crashed the meteor into the starlight theatre. It isn’t your fault.” “No, I know. It’s just..you wanted this so bad and I wanted it for you.” “You are sweet Ted.” “I want you to know that none of this is your fault. You tried and it’s not possible and that’s alright.” Henry keeps quiet. Ted breaks away from him a little to turn him around in his chair. “Say it.” “What do you want me to say?” “That it’s not your fault.” Henry smiles down-hearted. “Ted, don’t be that way now. I’m fine.” “Nuh-uh!” He leans forward and places a quick kiss on Henrys lips, pulling away afterwards. Henry follows to kiss him again, but Ted ducks away. “Only if you say it.” “Good God. It’s not my fault.” “There you go.” Henrys reaches for Teds head, pulling him closer, almost impatiently. They kiss again, for real this time. It grows more passionate, until there’s Teds hand, pulling on Henrys Turtleneck and finding a way underneath. He slowly pulls Henry up from the stool and gently pushes him against the desk instead. Henrys hand leaves Teds hair now, instead going for his tie and loosening it. He then proceeds to undo the first few buttons of Ted shirts, running his hand eagerly over his skin. Ted catches himself reaching for Henrys belt now, fiddling with the buckle. „Ted..“ Ted quickly backs away. „Sorry! Sorry.. too quick?“ Henry stares at him for a few seconds, lightly panting. „No, just.. bedroom“, he mumbles. Then he reaches for Teds wrist and pulls him out of the lab and to his bedroom. Ted just kind of follows him, stumbling a little but looking forward to wherever this is going. As soon as they‘re in there, Henry pushes Ted against the door and kisses him, while he blindly locks it. Then he goes for Teds belt. „Woah“, Ted mumbles. „Is that too quick?“ „Nah, I‘m so fucking into it. Just didn‘t expect it at all.“ „Sorry, it‘s been quite a while.“ Henry seems nervous now. „No no no, don‘t be sorry! It’s so hot.“ Henry laughs quietly, before he kisses Ted again, reaching for his belt again too. - They cuddle afterwards. Of course they do. Henrys head rests on Ted chest, Ted wrapped his arms around Henry and affectionately plays with his hair now. Ted can‘t safely and with complete security claim that he actually ‘made love’ before, but he’s pretty sure he did now. He‘d never say that though, because it sounds so fucking cheesy. Maybe it‘s just that cheesy. Falling in love and all of that shit. Ted‘s pretty sure he already fell by now. He stumbled for a while and tried to catch himself, tried to find his balance, but he didn‘t. And then he fell and he hit his head so hard that he has cheesy thoughts now.   He can feel the way Henrys breath hits his chest, the way Henrys hair is tickling on his skin and he absolutely adores it. “I’m in love with you“, he mumbles. Really quiet to be honest, because fear took a hold of him, after he opened his mouth. Fear, that Henry doesn’t want to hear that because he doesn’t feel the same. It’s quiet and Ted actually starts to hope that Henry didn’t hear it. But Henry did, he just needed time to process it. “You are?” “Uuhm..” Oh God. He fucked up, he fucked up so bad. Henry looks up now, looks at Ted with his gorgeous eyes. He’s lightly chewing on his lip, maybe to hide that it is trembling. Ted can see it tremble anyway.   “Sorry”, Ted quickly mumbles. “What is it?” “I’m sorry I said it.” “Don’t be.” “Are you gonna cry?” Henrys lip is still trembling and his eyes look kinda teary. “No.” “I’m sorry if I upset you. You know what? Just forget about it.” “No, don’t be sorry. I love you too.” “What?” Ted can hear his own heart pounding by now. “I said I love you too.” Henry leans closer to Ted now and kisses him. He then continues placing gentle kisses on Teds face, smiling now. “Sorry, I love you”, he says, “I love you Ted.” “Thank God”, Ted whispers. He’s relieved, he’s so fucking relieved. And it feels so good to hear it too. Nobody ever said that to him. He heard Charlotte saying it to Sam a lot, he remembers how he used to roll his eyes at those words. What a pitiful blathering. He catches Henry gazing at him, brightly smiling now. “I’m sorry. I haven’t heard that in a long time and I did not expect to hear it from anyone anymore, to be perfectly honest.” “Well I’ve never said it and let me tell you, that silence was terrifying.” Henry chuckles. “I’m sorry Ted.” “It’s alright.” “You really never said it?” “No.” “I assume you also never heard it then?” “No.” Henry pulls him closer now and places a gentle kiss onto his collarbone, before he settles on Teds chest again. “Now you did.” “Yeah it was great. You wanna say it again?” Henry laughs quietly, before he whispers another “I love you”. Ted smiles. “I love you too” And he means it. He’s never felt like that before. “Are we gonna use pet names now?” “No.” “Babe?” “Ted..” “Love?” Henry laughs. “Good God.” “So that’s a yes?” “No.” “Alright, Love it is.” Henry just gives up complaining and instead places kisses on Teds chest. Ted consequently places a kiss on Henrys forehead, Henry looks up and they kiss for real. “Good Night”, Henry finally mumbles against Teds lips. “Good Night.. Love.” Ted winks and Henry just kind of chuckles against Teds chest, not daring to object anymore. - Ted wakes up, when Henry tries to entangle himself from Teds arms. For some reason they ended up spooning over night. “Don’t”, Ted mumbles, still half asleep, before he pulls Henry back against his chest, holding him close. “Ted it’s already nine in the morning.” “We don’t have anywhere to be.” Henry hesitates, but seems to agree at last, because he turns around to Ted now. He reaches for Teds face and starts placing soft kisses everywhere. “Open your eyes. I know that you are awake. You talked to me.” Ted smiles and shakes his head. “I’m not awake.” Henry goes for Teds eyes now, gently kissing his closed eyelids and every bit of unkissed skin nearby. “Jesus Christ, you really are consistent“, Ted mumbles now, not daring to admit how much he enjoys it. He opens his eyes now, squinting at the light that floats into the room through the window, almost immediately closing them again. “No”, he just says, before he cuddles up against Henrys chest, buries his head in the crook of Henrys neck and places a few tired kisses there. Henry wraps his arms around Ted, seemingly giving up now. It doesn’t take long for Ted to fall back asleep. They end up laying and cuddling there way longer than Henry planned to but he can’t deny that he thoroughly enjoys every second of it. After some time he decides to get up though, because he can hear everybody else in the kitchen. He slips out of Teds arms, receiving a quiet groan, but nothing more. - When Ted wakes up again, Henrys gone. After a glance at the clock, he forces himself to get up as well. He enters the kitchen, where everybody is, for some reason. They are all either putting away everything or doing the dishes. Of course they are already done eating. Ted steps closer to Henry, hugging him from behind and resting his head against Henrys back. “Traitor”, he mumbles. “It’s not possible that you are still tired Ted.” Ted can hear Henry smile while saying that. “Well looks like you tired me out last night.” Bills hands shoot up to cover Alice ears and Emmas jaw drops. “Good God”, Henry mumbles. Alice laughs, much to Bills shock. She ducks out of his hands. “Dad, I’m almost 18!” “You’re still too young.” “Oh”, Paul mouths, only now getting it. “I’m out”, Emma declares and pulls a confused Paul out of the kitchen. “I guess we’ll leave you alone too.” Poor Bill. He suddenly seems so overwhelmed. He just leaves. Alice smiles and winks at Ted, before she follows everybody else. Ted might actually start to like her. Henry turns to Ted, biting his lip to keep himself from smiling. “So, now that everybody’s out of here, do you wanna make out?”, Ted asks. “You are unbelievable.” “You’re into it though.” “That’s right, come here.”

Diabolik lovers Chaos Lineage: Ayato Sakamaki (Story 04)

In terms of the gameplay: The black choices lead up to a bad ending, the white choices lead up to a good ending. Please no reposting onto other sites, ask me before translating this into another language too! I’m an amateur translator, but I hope you do enjoy it anyway!♡

Monologue

After a few days.

Shin-san and Kanato-kun went to monitore the families,

and Ruki-kun continued to receive the report.

When are they going to start the fight?

I become uneasy just thinking about it

However,

Ayato-kun made a proposal.

Place: Orange Mansion - Livingroom

Ayato: I'll make her sleep in my room 

Yui: Huh?

Shin: What? Are you being selfish yet again?

Ruki: What kind of an idea is that? Aren’t you already spoiled enough? 

Ayato: What’s that supposed to mean?  Anyway Ruki I thought that you‘re busier with other stuff.

Yui: (Although Ayato-kun has forgotten me, i‘m really happy that we might share a room)

(Because I was a little nervous to be alone in my room) 

(We just need the permission from Ruki-kun, right?)

Ayato: Even if you disagree I‘ll still do it. I‘m not someone who follows orders in the first place

Ruki: Listen, if you have a good reason to keep her in her room i‘ll allow it 

Yui: (That’s right. I need a good reason why i‘d stay in his room...)

Choices

1)ー love for another (white)♡♡♡

2)ー protecting (black)

ー love for another♡

Yui: Ayato-kun and I are in love with each other, isn’t that enough...?

Ayato: What? What are you saying?

Shin: Are you insane going insane? That’s not what our brother asked for.

It might be more efficient if you were next to your guard Ayato, he could protect you from the enemies way faster.

I‘m sure thats what you actually mean by that.

Yui: Oh, thats right...

Ayato: Well, if that’s your reason why not saying it earlier, but...

Yui: Hm? What?

ー protecting

Yui: Uhm, I‘d be with Ayato-kun all the time if someone would start a raid.

If the enemy comes to attack, I think that the possibility of being taken away is pretty high...

So I wondered if it's better to have the same room as Ayato-kun?

Ayato: You...

Ruki: I see, thats not a bad reason.

Certainly what Eve says is also worthwhile. It’s a better answer than Ayato would give.

Ayato: Asshole, stop making fun of me! ....but, it‘s finally decided then

Yui: eh?

end Choices

Ayato: I see, Chichinashi. I understand the reason why you want to stay with me.

Yui: What?

Ayato: Thats right. You wanted to be mine and that’s why you desperately searched for excuses to tell Ruki, right?

Yui: (Well, it’s not wrong at all right...?)

Ayato: Well, that’s it!  You should come with me to my room already, let’s go.

Yui: yes...!

(I‘m glad that i‘m going to share the same room as Ayato)

Shin: Brother wait... Is it really okay to let them share the same room?

Ruki: Don’t worry. It’s fine

Place: Orange Mansion - Ayato's bedroom

Yui: Well then, from now on, I'll be sleeping in Ayato-kun's room, right?

Ayato: Yes, theres only one bed in my room, but we both can sleep in there.

Yui: uh, thats right

(That means we‘re going to sleep in the same bed every night. There is nothing that can be recalled now)

(Moreover, the house is quiet now...)

(After that, Shin-san took Kanato-kun and they went for a reconnaissance. So thats why it’s so silent)

Ayato: Ah~hah. I was forced to go back to my room when everyone is outside. After all i‘m stuck in here.

Yui: ...y-yeah

Ayato: That asshole Ruki. It’s helpful that he‘s so clever yet serious... but I don’t wanna stay here.

Do you think so too?

Yui: About that. I think it depends on...

Ayato: ....

Yui: Ayato-kun? You‘re starring at me. Is something in my face?

Ayato: Well, I just thought that, thanks to you I won’t get bored in here anymore.

Yui: Eh?

Ayato: It is a great opportunity to play with you. Hey, why don’t we have fun together?

Yui: Let’s stop at this point. Wouldn‘t Ruki-kun become angry at you again?

Ayato: Hah? It’s not like I actually care if he‘ll get angry at me. I lost my respect roward him already. 

Oh, while we’re alone, I’lI teach you more enjoyable ways of playing around. Thank me later okay?

Yui: Eh, what? Why are you removing the strings...

Ayato: I‘ll tie your hands and feet together so you can’t get away from me.

Yui: What?! Stop it! What are you doing?!

Ayato: Tch! Stop struggling! .... connect here, and..

That’s it! I did pretty well tying you up!

Yui: Hey Ayato-kun, let’s stop. I want you to understand...

Ayato: What are you talking about. From now on, we‘ll do more stuff like that. Hehehe, it looks good.

Yui: No... I don’t like this at all, get those string away from me ...

(I want to be treated more as a lover...)

Ayato: What are you saying. It’s not like you‘ll die from it. Anyway, where should I start today.

Yui: ...no...ah... not on my feet, it tickles...!

Ayato: Hehe, you‘re giving me a really good view, how are you feeling? This position is...

Yui: Hah! Stop it, it tickles...!

Ayato: You‘re pretty weak everywhere. That’s interesting. What about here...

Yui: Ayato-kun! Don’t open my blouse... stop it!

Ayato: That’s fine. You have no breasts to show anyway

Yui: (This is really awful...! Today is the worst day!)

Ayato: Look here. Your clavicle comes out beautifully. Maybe I should do it along the bones —

Yui: a...ah...no...

Ayato: I know you feel the pleasure. It’s not like you need to hide that aroused face of yours.

Heh, shall I start with my nails? Or you prefer if I start with my fangs?

Yui: Thats...what...

Ayato: Heh! I can’t hold back my thirst any longer. ...ahh..!

Yui: ....ahh!! Why so suddenly...!

Ayato: Ah... Hmm... Hmm... !

Yui: Ah... Haa... Aah... !

(I thought it was going to be awful at first, but I feel he’s softer today ...)

(Hey, it feels like it's going to be actually really good this time...)

Ayato: Hah .... are you enjoying it?  If I‘d suck it a little more gently, your blood might get sweeter.

Do you like this? Do you prefer me being a little more gentle today?

Yui: I...wouldn’t mind...

(Because thats the Ayato-kun, I fell for and I love with my whole heart.)

Ayato: Well, I finally get to know your taste. You love it when it’s painful but gentle don’t you?

Yui: Eh?

Ayato: Next time I will do my best to pleasure you with my fangs.  Ah... Hmm... Hmm

Yui: Ayato-kun...ahh!

(Ouch! He‘s forcing his fangs too deep in my skin...!)

Oh, Ayato-kun stop... it hurts so much!

Ayato: Shut up already. Just a second ago you were highly enjoying it ... hm?

...Tch! It’s this dazzling again...

Yui: (Whats happening? What should I do...?)

Ayato: I wonder why it came back...

Yui: Is Ayato-kun in pain?

Ayato: It’s not like you need to worry about me, it’s probably because I sucked your blood.

Yui: Ah...I see

*Ayato lets go*

Ayato: I‘m not feeling like it anymore.

Shit, that’s annoying. I thought it would be refreshing.

Yui: (Am I annoying Ayato-kun...?)

Ayato: I think it's going to be really boring...

—That’s it!

Yui: (I wonder what came to his mind. Maybe it’s a good idea tho!)

(More than that, I wonder if I can get ride of my tied hand-feet situation)

Ayato: I don’t care about the orders ruki gave me, I don’t need to do them.

I have to sneak out of the mansion and slam the enemies by myself!

Yui: (Huh! To be honest, that’s a really stupid idea...)

Well, but if you do something selfish again, Ruki-kun will...

Ayato: Hm, I don’t care

Besides, if I can get ride of our enemy, not even ruki will be able to complain

Yui: (i don’t want to say anything. He’s super serious)

Ayato: But if they will attack... I can’t just leave you here on your own.

Ruki should be outside tho.  OK, I will take you with me

Yui: Huh?! That's not good. aren‘t you told to not leave the house?

Ayato: Aren’t you my toy? That’s why you shouldn’t go against your master.

You have to listen to what I say, or i‘ll leave you with your hands and feet tied. We‘ve been locked in here for so long.

Yui: Fine!

Ayato: Well then, let’s go! We‘ll be back in no time!

Place: Outside - Forest

Yui: (I‘m a little surprised. It was pretty easy to escape from the mansion...)

Ayato: Are you surprised?  It’s pretty easy to do whatever you want if Ruki‘s not having his eyes on you.

I've been searching for a way to go outside secretly for quite awhile!

Yui: (Is that so. Well then, it’s been awhile since I went outside last time)

(But if Ruki-kun notices, he will be very angry at us)

(This will be a raid alone... I think it will be pretty dangerous)

So, where are we going now?

Ayato: The scarlet mansion

Yui: Scarlet...

Ayato: Yea, that silly dude with those city glasses is the head of that mansion.

Yui: I thought Kanato would go there to get informations today. Aren’t we going to meet him by any chance then?

Ayato: I‘m not sure. I guess that guy wont do the reconnaissance properly anyway

Yui: Oh! Is that so?

Ayato: So theres basically nothing in our way anymore. This could be our chance.

I‘m going to defeat them all and prove everyone that i‘m the best.

Yui: (It’s all about fighting. It would be a terrible fight if we‘ll see Reiji-san)

(I don’t want to fight anyone. Ayato-kun please he‘s one of your brothers)

Place: Somewhere - Garden

Ayato: You should see the Scarlet mansion soon

Yui: (Now it’s my last change to stop and return home. He may be angry again and he maybe will force me to give him my blood...)

(Theres no way back. I have no choice but to stop him and get back with him!)

Ayato-kun lets go home. If we go any further Ruki-kun will—

Ayato: Shh!

Yui: ...Hmm...Ah...

(Why he forced me to shut up...?)

Ayato: ...

Yui: (Is something bothering him...? Did someone discover us?)

Ayato: Who‘s there?

Ah! That guy...!

Shu: ...zzz...

Yui: (Eh, Shu-san?! Why is he laying around here?)

Ayato: That guy is... Shu from the Scarlet Mansion. I wonder what he‘s been doing out here?

This is basically perfect, just watch me. Come on! Wake up, Shu!

*Ayato kicks Shu*

Yui: Ayato-kun! Why did you do sth like that so suddenly!

Ayato: Get up quickly! I‘ll beat the shit out of you! Did you hear me you asshole?

Shu: ...yawn....shut up....

What’s the problem. Who allowed you to wake me up?

Ayato: I don’t need permission to kick an enemy. You should change your attitude before I am getting bad tempered.

Shu: I feel very confident. Sadly, I was found by a very troublesome person tho

Reiji: Shu, you finally got up. Don’t you have any manners, sleeping in such — oh?

Yui: (Reiji-san!)

Ayato: Ah, you are... the glasses dude!

Reiji: I wasn’t expecting you to come here without any reason... with Eve.

And, Ruki really has some troublesome brother, I‘d be sorry for him.

Hehe.. But you and Eve took the trouble to come all the way here. I‘d be stupid if I wouldn’t try to steal her from you.

Ayato: Shut up. I don’t even think about giving her away without a fight!

Reiji: You heard that, Shu. This is probably the best opportunity to steal Eve.

Shu: ..sigh, whatever

Yui: (A... sword? Isn’t that a silver knife? You can really kill any vampire with that...)

Ayato: It’s finally getting interesting. Now come at me!

*swords clash*

Yui: (They are really going to fight each other)

(That’s not good—! Stop it, you‘re brothers!)

Stop it Ayato-kun! Reiji and Shu are both brothers from you...!

Please remember! When I was at the sakamki house!

Shu: Hey, what’s with that woman

Ayato: You should concentrate on our fight.

Reiji: You can tell us more later. I‘ll listen to that story once we return to our mansion.

Yui: (Damn it, they really don’t get along...)

*Ayato attacks Shu*

Ayato: Lets go! Come on!

Shu: Heh.

Reiji: Hah!

Ayato: fuck!

Yui: (That attack from Reiji was close to hit Ayato...)

(On the opposite, it's definitely hard to block those attacks)

*swords clash*

Ayato: Ah...Tch...

Reiji: Whats the Problem? It looks like you‘re struggling already.

Shu: How pathetic

Ayato: Shut up! This fight is not settled yet!

Reiji: Certainly, it is—

Shu: the end.

Yui: (He was caught between them...!)

Ayato-kun! It’s dangerous!

Ayato: Eh...?! There’s no going back anymore!

Shu: ugh...

Ayato: ugh...ahhh...!

Yui: (No, Ayato-kun...!)

Reiji: Oh my, look at how pathetic and helpless you are now.

Ayato: Fuck...!

*Reiji kicks Ayato*

Yui: (Ayato-kun's, bleeding...)

(They are not sibling anymore. They are really going to kill him.)

(I should run away or help him, but I can’t move...!)

Reiji: You are really an idiot for trying to attack us alone.

Ayato: Shut...up...

Shu: Reiji, let’s finish him off quickly

Reiji: I agree. I hope you spoke your last words already. Because, this will be your last moment

Ayato: ...uh...!

Yui: No, please...! Please, someone help Ayato-kun—!!

*something flew over*

Reiji: ....hm?!

Shu: .....

Yui: (...hm...! Something just flew over here now)

*swords clash*

Yui: (A sword...? The sword flew from somewhere!)

Reiji: Whats happening?

Shu: ...apparently he was not alone

*Orange family appears*

Kanato: You look good, Ayato.

Shin: It is a views which I never saw before, the great Ayato is laying helpless on the ground.

Ruki: ...

Yui: (Everyone! Did they really come to help?!)

Ayato: ...tch. What is everyone doing here

Shin: Well, because Kanato was scouting here.  I received a report that something went wrong.

Yui: Is that so. In addition, Kanato was doing his reconnaissance pretty well

Kanato: Excuse me. But, what is that supposed to mean?

Yui: Nothing! Never mind!

(Ayato-kun, he’s been silent for awhile now...)

Kanato: Just what would have happened if shu was actually able to capture eve from us this time.

Im going to make this sloppy face, regret trying to steal her away from us.

I won’t forgive Ayato for what happened this time at all.

I told Ruki that I‘d be a better guard in the first place.

Now you see ruki, what kind of failure Ayato is

Ayato: Asshole, what kind of bullshit are you talking...

Ruki: ...we don’t have time for that now. At the moment our property is taking Eve home and leave this place.

Reiji: I see, 4 people vs 2 people seems a little disadvantaged at this point

Consider yourself lucky this time. Let’s go home, Shu.

Shu: It’s finally over... I’ll return to bed immediately....yawn

*Reiji and Shu leave*

Yui: (They really left... what a relive)

Shin: Brother, shouldn’t we follow them?

Ruki: There’s no use for another useless battle. We got Eve back everything else is unimportant.

Above all, it would be bothersome if we started a fight when one of us isn’t in a good condition.

Shin: You’re right.

Ayato: ....Ruki....

Ruki: You don’t change at all, Ayato. Let’s go home already.

*Ruki leaves*

Ayato: ....Tch...!

Yui: (He’s angry about it. He was close to be killed just by doing something such selfish)

(If they weren’t here, nobody would’ve saved Ayato...)

Ayato-kun can't stand alone, right? Hold on to my shoulder.

Ayato: Don’t touch me. I can walk alone...

Yui: Ayato-kun...

[atlas-the-worldbuilder]

Ok, everyone. So before we discuss the Tumblr Exodus...

...to be blunt, I haven’t really been on Tumblr anyways.

When I started this blog, I was aiming to make a simple comic series educating y’all on the finer points of world building and generating ideas for the world you create. This didn’t last as long as I’d hoped it would, as ultimately the workload of daily life has taken away what free time I had to make comics and do analysis on movies or stuff I’d wanted to do. The blog has just become a collection of idea posts and artwork, which although isn’t necessarily a bad thing, isn’t the future I’d really wanted for the blog.

This blog has already long strayed from its intended course a long time ago. I mostly kept coming back to look for interesting posts and anything that made me go “hey, that’s an idea I could do something with”. But lately, more and more posts have been coming up which don’t have anything to do with that at all, despite my efforts to filter out the news. Posts battling for internet freedom*, posts about insecure people whining about how they’re the most beset-upon in the world, posts grumbling about politics and religion...it was becoming harder to find what I wanted to see.

*-(Which isn’t necessarily bad, I fully support the fight for internet freedom. But frankly...that fight has pretty much already been lost, here.)

And now we get the news that Tumblr’s moderators are essentially trying to remove the NSFW from Tumblr, which is laughable for many reasons. Previewing their automatic systems targeting suggestive posts, the system is faulty and full of bugs, targeting actual normal non-NSFW art as well as the raunchy stuff, and all it’s doing is haphazardly targeting everything it can see, in hopes that it hits something that actually is what it’s trying to hit.

It is remarkably similar to the act of filtering swamp water: the swamp will still make the muck that makes the water unsuitable for drinking, no matter how big a filter you stick in there, and if you try too hard to clean it, you‘re just killing off the swamp.

In any case, here’s the end result: I probably won’t be using Tumblr for a long while. My blog has plenty of updates queued up for the long haul, so those of you following will still receive plenty of good ideas in the future, assuming it’s still up after the 17th and hasn’t been targeted by the fore-mentioned half-blind censors. I won’t remove the blog, everything will still be here; there just won’t be any new updates after the queue runs dry.

I’ve had a good long run here, between the two blogs I ran, but as the old saying goes, all good things must come to an end. Maybe I’ll return one day, once the dust settles and I have more time and energy to actually create content as opposed to just reposting things I find from elsewhere. Hopefully that comes sooner rather than later, no jynx.

For those of you who want to keep in touch with me, I’ll be primarily on Discord, lurking and wordbuilding as I do. Just send me an ask, and I’ll message you my ID so we can chat.

In the meantime, in the words of my Human Resources college professor...

Watch out for crazies.

If you’re crazy, don’t get caught.

If you get caught, then make sure you have a clean outfit to wear.

Have a good night, see y’all on the flip side.

Nightmares

Summary: The history class of Mr. Washington is going on a two day trip to D.C. and because of a mistake you have to share a room with Alexander Hamilton. When you wake up in the middle of the night because of a bad dream he reacts differently than you expect.

Pairing: Alexander Hamilton x reader

Time period: modern

Word count: 3,442

Warnings: drowning, nightmares

A/N: There you go, it’s a long one this time. I hope y’all like it. Maybe I’ll do a second part, I do have a few ideas. Would you like that? Tell me if you have any suggestions. Anyways, as always, tell me if you notice mistakes. Enjoy!

                                                             ---

You had been looking forward to this trip for weeks. The whole history class of Mr. Washington was going to the capital for two days. You knew this would be a lot of sightseeing and long lectures but you were happy anyways. The Schuyler Sisters and you had already made plans for your free time and of course you would a share a room at the hotel where you had to stay one night. You were traveling with a bus and while most of the students were rather quiet because it was so early in the morning, you and your friends were wide awake. You had made yourselves comfortable in the back part of the bus and currently you were all playing cards. Everyone, except Alexander Hamilton. While his friends were rather competitive he was reading a book, seeming focused. He would join you later, he had said. He needed to finish the book for another class. You were actually glad he chose to not engage because when it came to games he was the fiercest out of all his friends. And the two of you didn‘t exactly get along well. You didn‘t hate each other, but you just teased one another a lot and fights between you two were common. There was just something about him that drove you mad.

Luckily, Alexander spend the rest of the drive reading but you were glad when you finally arrived and you could move your legs properly again. The weather was really nice and Mr. Washington didn‘t lose time and walked straight to the first building on your list. After two hours he decided it was time for a lunch break and you all gathered at a café. You sat down with the Schuyler sisters and watched the people on the street. Everyone was busy. The whole city just felt alive. Angelica was taking a ton of pictures and Peggy had wanted to buy something at every souvenir shop that crossed your way. You were pulled out of your daze when you heard Alexander and his friends laughing. You rolled your eyes. They were a bit too loud for your liking. Eliza noticed your expression and chuckled.

„Just ignore them. You know they are always like that.“

You sighed. „I know. But it just goes on my nerves sometimes.“

After the break Mr. Washington decided to start a little competition and the task was to find three buildings and take pictures in front of it. The first team who got all three would be the winner.

At a tourist information every team got a map and you and Angelica were trying to find the best route as you overheard Alexander talk to his friends.

„Come on guys, we can win this easily.“

You looked up and as Alexander noticed you staring he grinned. „What‘s wrong? Afraid of losing?“

You huffed. „You wish.“ You turned back to Angelica and lowered your voice. „We need to win this. I want to see his face when he looses.“ She just laughed at that.

In the end, neither of you won the competition. Tired, you all made your way to the hotel and waited outside as Mr. Washington checked in to get the keys. It took him a while and after half an hour he finally came back, seeming a bit grumpy.

„Okay listen up. There was a problem with the rooms. It‘s a bit different now. And since I want this to be fair, we‘re gonna draw lots.“

A collective groan came from the group. You sighed. You had been looking forward so much to sharing a room with the sisters.

„Come on, it‘s only for one night. I think you‘re gonna survive it.“

Since there was no point in discussing now, everyone accepted the new situation. The names were put on papers and also the number of beds in the rooms. When it was your turn, you were glad the number you got was a two. So you would only have to share a room with one person. You grabbed a second paper and prayed it would be one of the Sisters. You unfolded the note and froze. No. This couldn‘t be. You couldn‘t do this. „What‘s wrong? Got someone bad?“, Alexander asked, grinning again. You looked up, eyes full of anger.

„The worst actually. You.“

The grin disappeared and his eyes widened in disbelief. „You‘re joking, aren‘t you?“

You shook you head.

„Mr. Washington, I want to get another one. I don‘t want to share a room with Hamilton.“

But Mr. Washington only shook his head. „No exchanges. I‘m sure you will be able to get along without killing each other.“

„But-“, Alexander started, but Mr. Washington just ignored him. This had now become the worst trip ever.

Everyone got their keys and went to put their bags to their rooms. You and Alexander walked in silence, both grumpy. You hadn‘t imagine to spend the end of the day like this.

The room wasn‘t big, two beds with nightstands, a closet and a small bathroom. Only for one night, you thought. Just one night.

Quietly you both unpacked your stuff. You didn‘t talk for another ten minutes and when it was time for dinner you both left the room, but quickly parted in the lobby, happy to go back to your friends.

The evening went by fast, too fast for your liking. You said goodnight to the sisters and made your way back to your room. Alexander wasn‘t here yet and you changed into your pajamas and brushed your teeth before you went into bed. You reached for the book you had brought with you and only looked up when you heard Alexander come in after a while. He disappeared into the bathroom and came back a few minutes later, wearing a t-shirt and sweatpants. His hair was out of his usual ponytail and framed his face. You caught yourself staring and quickly turned your gaze back to your book. Alexander laid down and turned off the lamp on his nightstand, so yours was the only source of light in the room.

You breathed out, trying to get rid of the tension that had built up in you since he had come in. You weren‘t used to sleeping with another person in the same room and the fact that it was him didn‘t really made it better. But it was only one night. It would be over soon. And you could at least try to be nice.

„Do you want to sleep? I can stop reading.“ you asked and he turned to look at you, seeming a bit surprised by your sudden attempt at communication.

„No it‘s fine. It doesn‘t bother me.“

You nodded and kept reading for a while. You didn‘t know what else to say. When you felt your eyes getting heavier you put the book aside. Alexander had already closed his eyes and you wondered if he was already asleep. You turned off your light and shifted until you were laying comfortable.

„Goodnight.“, Alexander suddenly said and you almost flinched. Seems like he hadn‘t been asleep.

„Goodnight.“, you mumbled, closing your eyes. It felt strange, sharing a room with him. But fortunately the night would be over in a few hours and everything would go back to normal. At least you thought so.

Everything was dark. You couldn‘t see. It was quiet, the only sound was your breathing. Not even your steps made a sound. Carefully you turned in every direction, trying to get back your orientation, but there was nothing. Nothing but darkness. Carefully you took a step forward. The ground felt strange. You took another step but you didn‘t know where you were going. Maybe you should try to just walk into one direction, just to find out if you could find something to orientate?

Suddenly you felt a weight on your chest and gasped for air. You couldn‘t breathe. You coughed and felt something cold on your lips. Water. There was water in your lungs.

You sank down to your knees, unable to stand on your feet anymore as you felt the water rising in your lungs. Panic was rushing through your body as you felt your senses becoming numb. Black points were dancing in front of your eyes. Suddenly you felt a pair of hands on your shoulders and you tried to scream but it was just a gargle. You tried to break free and hammered with your hands against an invisible enemy. But it was already too late. Everything went dark and the last thing you heard was a voice that was calling your name from far away.

„Y/N! Y/N wake up!“

With a scream you sat up, breathing heavily as you blinked confused. You weren‘t drowning. You were still in the hotel. And the hands on your shoulders belonged to Alexander, who sat next to you on your bed, looking at you with a mix of relief and worry. Your hands were shaking and you tried to take deep breaths to calm you down. „Are you okay?“ Alexander asked, removing his hands from your shoulders. You nodded.

„I‘m… I‘m fine. Just a dream. I‘m sorry for waking you up.“ Your voice sounded a bit shaky and you felt really uncomfortable. You didn‘t want him to see you like that. You wouldn’t be able to handle his sarcastic comments right now.

„Don‘t worry. I‘m just glad you‘re okay.“

To your surprise he gave you a reassuring smile. Had he ever been this nice to you before? Not that you could remember. But you were glad he wasn‘t making stupid jokes. Your heart was still racing and your lungs hurt.

„I‘m gonna get you a glass of water.“ Alexander suddenly said and stood up. You nodded. Your mouth felt dry and as you ran a hand through your hair you noticed how sweaty it was. Your pillow and blanket were crumbled. No wonder you had woken him up.

Alexander returned and handed you a glass with fresh water.

„Thank you.“ Carefully you took a few sips. Alexander was watching you, still seeming worried.

„You sure you‘re okay?“

You nodded. He hesitated for a moment before he returned to his own bed.

He waited until you had finished your water and moved his hand to the light switch.

„Hey, if you need anything just wake me up, okay? Doesn‘t matter what it is.“

Surprised you looked at him. He seemed serious, there was no sign of amusement in his eyes. You had never expected this from him, only knowing him as the loud and arrogant person he normally was.

„Thank you.“, you just said again and laid down. He smiled and turned off the lights.

After a few minutes his breathing became slower and he was asleep. You, on the other hand, couldn‘t sleep. The darkness of the room reminded you of the darkness in your dream and you could almost feel the water in your lungs again. You tried to focus on your breathing, in and out, counting every breath. But it didn‘t help. This wasn‘t the first time you had had this dream. But normally you always had someone to comfort you afterwards like your sister or Angelica. When you were a child, you had always crawled into your sisters bed and had spend the rest of the night with her. But now you where alone.

Time passed by and every minute felt like an hour to you. You were so tired, but you couldn‘t sleep. You tossed yourself from one side to another, but it didn‘t help. Your mind was still too troubled. You also thought about Alexander. He had been really nice. Almost supportive. You wondered why. Maybe he had been just too tired to make fun of you. But maybe he was not as bad as you had thought. You just knew him like that, since you first met in history class a year ago you two had been like this, always teasing, always making sarcastic comments. This was a complete new side of him you had never seen before.

He had also said that you could wake him if you needed anything. Should you? No! What should you tell him? That you can‘t sleep? What was he supposed to do about that? You shook your head and tried to focus on your breath again.

But after some time you had to accept that it just wouldn‘t work. You tossed your blanket aside and slid your feet off the bed. This was a dumb idea. Really dumb. But there wasn’t a better one.

Carefully taking one step after another you crossed the room, until your knee hit the other bed. The room was so dark you could barely see anything, the only light was a small strip of moonlight shining through the curtains. You could make out his silhouette in the dark and hesitated.

„Hamilton?“, you whispered after a few seconds. No reaction. You tried again, this time a bit louder. Nothing. Carefully you shook his shoulder. „Alexander!“

He flinched and blinked confused.

„Wha- what?“ he mumbled sleepily and you regretted waking him instantly. What were you supposed to say now? How stupid.

„I… I can‘t sleep. And I thought… I don‘t know… You said… I mean...“ you rambled and were thankful for the darkness that was hiding your red cheeks. He surely would be angry. You had just woken him for nothing.

„Haunted by your dream?“, he asked, his voice raspy. You nodded. He sighed and rubbed his eyes.

„You wanna stay? Here I mean.“ he said, padding to the space next to him. Your heart skipped a beat at his suggestion. Was he making fun of you? You couldn’t really see his face in the dark but he seemed serious, just waiting for an answer. Why was he doing that?

„Are you serious?“, you asked.

„I wouldn‘t offer it, if I wasn‘t.“, he answered. You still hesitated. Could you do that? A few hours ago he had been incredibly annoying and now he was offering sleeping in the same bed to help you calm down. But what did you had to loose? You couldn‘t sleep anyways. And it seemed like he actually cared about this. Maybe it would help. So you climbed over him and laid down, your back facing the wall. He pulled the covers over you and shoved the pillow a bit so you both could lay your heads on it.

„Just try to relax okay? I know from personal experience that the presence of others can help a lot after a bad dream.“ he said, still sleepy but now sounding a bit more awake.

You were quiet for a moment before you found the courage to speak again. It felt strange, laying in the same bed with him.

„So you have nightmares too?“

He chuckled. „Everybody has nightmares from time to time.“

„That‘s not what I meant.“

He sighed and you immediately asked yourself if you had crossed a line. You shouldn‘t have asked such a personal question. You didn’t even understand why he was doing this.

„Yes I have nightmares. Mostly about my mother.“ he said after a while. You couldn‘t really see his face and even though he tried to control his voice, you could hear the underlying pain.

„What do you dream about?“ he asked and you tensed. You didn‘t want to talk about it. You just wanted to forget it. The darkness, the water, the feeling of not being able to breathe. He seemed to sense your discomfort because he didn‘t ask any further and so you just laid there in silence for a few minutes.

„My mother died when I was very young. My dreams are mostly about losing her. Again.“ Alexander suddenly said, his voice so quiet you almost didn‘t hear it. Why was he telling you that? You didn‘t know what to say. You realized how little you actually knew about Alexander.

„I‘m sorry.“ you whispered back and he nodded. You couldn‘t imagine how horrible it must be to relive something like this. Even though it was only a dream, you knew how real it could feel. How real the pain was.

„I dream about drowning.“, you said quietly. He was silent for a moment, surprised of your confession.

„Why drowning?“, he asked.

„Because,...“, you started, gathering your courage to tell the story, „… because I almost drowned as a child. It was at the pool and I had just learned how to swim. I had so much fun, I didn‘t notice that I went too far and when I stopped moving I thought, I would be able to stand in the water. But I was in another section where the pool was too deep and the edge was too far away. I panicked.“

Your voice cracked and you felt your heart starting to race again. Alexander carefully took your hand and comfortingly brushed his thumb over your skin.

„It‘s okay. You‘re safe.“

His voice made you relax again, reminding you that everything was fine. His hand felt warm on yours and you wondered how many nights he had spent sleepless because of his nightmares. He seemed to know exactly how to calm down. You had never thought that he would be so understanding.

„You should try to sleep now, okay? We will have to wake up early tomorrow.“

You nodded. You wanted to thank him, but you felt like you had said those words too often in the last few hours so you just smiled, hoping he knew how much you appreciated this.

He returned your smile and removed his hand from yours, shifting a bit to get more comfortable before closing his eyes. Your hand felt cold now.

„Goodnight Y/N.“

„Goodnight Alexander.“

You closed your eyes too and noticed that you felt much calmer in his presence. After a few minutes he was asleep and you felt how you slowly drifted off to sleep too.

                                                              ---

You were woken by a strange noise, a weird melody and it took you a few seconds to realize it was Alexanders alarm. The other side of the bed was empty. So Alexander was already up. You reached to turn off the alarm and wondered what he thought about last night. You stretched and blinked a few times to really wake up.

„Morning.“ Alexander greeted you, suddenly standing in the doorway, his hair dump and a towel around his shoulders.

„Morning.“, you mumbled. Should you say something? Thank him? Should you ask him to not tell anyone about what happened? Your thoughts were interrupted when he spoke again.

„You can go to the bathroom now. I’m finished.”

You nodded and grabbed your clothes. You closed the bathroom door behind you and stood there for a second. You felt weird. You were unsure how to behave now. What were you supposed to think about last night? What was he thinking? You couldn‘t get these thoughts out of your head as you got ready. When you returned to your room Alexander was packing his backpack. You sat down to put on your shoes and watched as he reached for his wallet. Everything that happened last night now seemed so unreal. But he had been so nice. Was something different now?

„Why were you so nice to me?“, you blurted out and inwardly cursed yourself in the next moment for speaking before thinking. He turned around, giving you a confused look. „What?“

„Last night. You were really… nice. You didn‘t laugh or made fun of me.“, you explained.

He sighed and sat down on his bed.

„Look, I know we‘re not exactly best friends but I‘m not a complete asshole. And as I said, I know how it feels. And there‘s nothing to laugh about it.“

Suddenly you felt bad for thinking so poorly of him. Just because you didn‘t get along that well and he teased you all the time, didn‘t mean that he couldn‘t be a nice person.

You opened your mouth to apologize but he stopped you.

„Don‘t worry, it‘s fine.“ He grabbed his bag and the keys and you both left the room in silence as you went to the elevators. You noticed him staring at you for a few seconds and got nervous. Was he angry now? You cleared your throat and turned to look at him.

„Why are you staring?“

The familiar grin spread on his face and he chuckled. „You really must believe I‘m an asshole if you think so little of me.“

You groaned and lightly punched his arm. There he was again, Alexander as you knew him.

„Shut up.“

A week later Nathaniel and Lila went to lunch together with Miss Kurtzberg, which was off from work during the week and took the time to be closer with his son and daughter-in-law. 

„How is it for you two with the pregnancy?“ The raven-haired woman asked looking at Lila and Nathaniel.

„The baby is healthy according to the examination. We just don‘t know the gender at the moment“ Lila answered. „I‘ve been eating a lot since I got positive and even at the work I eat, when when I‘m supposed to be acting“

„Myléne told me she opened a chips pack during the theatre,“ Nathaniel mentioned.

„People thought it belonged to the scene, but it didn't“ Lila mentioned. „But Sarah said it was okay, the audience had liked the part“

„Two nights ago I woke up at 4 am to get Lila blueberries, all that because she saw that night on the movie the characters were being bombarded with blueberries“

„And that‘s kind of the third time I get the appetite just because of a movie. The first time I thought it was just a coincidence as I watched Jen Stoppable eating Tacos and around 11 pm the only way I could get a taco was at a Mexican restaurant“

„The owner was nice thought“ Nathaniel mentioned. „His wife is having the same routine as Lila“

„Yeah“ Lila agreed. „I‘m still hungry, is there any more rice?“ Lila asked her mother-in-law.

„I think Nathaniel ate the rest, but I can make another pot if you want. It only takes at least ten minutes“ Miss Kurtzberg suggested earning a nod from Lila.

„Thank you Miss Kurtzberg“

Miss Kurtzberg got up and head back into the kitchen leaving the couple back.

„There are still chicken pieces left here, do you want some?“ Nathaniel asked as Lila ate her last piece of meat.

„I think one is enough“ Lila answered watching Nathaniel pick with the plier a slice of cut meat off and gave it to Lila. Lila‘s smartphone beeped and she removed from her hoodie the smartphone out to see a message from Kagami. „I think the court session of Adrien ended“

„What happened?“ Nathaniel asked as Lila opened the message.

„Adrien and the guy that went to dinner with his family were arrested by Sabrina‘s father in front of the house door“ Lila answered. „Today was their court session and both got penalized“

„What did they do?“

„The other guy claimed Adrien pushed him at the road as a car was about to pass and Adrien says he jumped into the street to push him away from the car. There was no one, that could prove who was right and Kagami could‘t say anything since she only noticed what happened as she noticed Adrien didn‘t come back and spotted the police officer“

„Okay and now are they going to jail or…..“

„20 daily rates for Adrien“ Lila mentioned. „Starting with tomorrow“

„What will he have to do?“

„I think to pick up trash“ Lila answered looking back at her smartphone again.

„Well that came out at the wrong moment“

„Well, he lost now almost a month to work on his education. Man this turned out bad for him“

„Yeah“

„Kagami must be feeling bad now,“ Lila mentioned texting a message to the friend, then pressed enter. „Kagami is just at the begin of the pregnancy and she should not witness such situations at the moment“

„She‘s pregnant?“ The redhead questioned surprised at his wife‘s tale.

„When I ate ice cream with her at the park she told me that and needed to know, what she should do about it“

„Okay and what did she choose?“

„I don‘t know it yet“ Lila answered. „I didn‘t want to bother her with it“

„Okay“ Nathaniel answered. „We can help her out during this month until Adrien is more present as before“ „He still will be around her and his family, just she won‘t see him during school or when both are off from work“

„I know, but if she needs us I meant“

„I know Nathy“ Lila responded placing her hand on his lap smiling at the man.

At the manor of the Agreste‘s the silver-colored car entered into the plot of the house stopping in front of the stairs, then Adrien got out of the vehicle followed by his girlfriend and his mother.

„At least you‘re not proven as an offender“ Emilie said watching the son lean on the wall of the stairs, waiting for the rest of the family.

„And also you‘re not the only one being punished. Raiden got punished too. It‘s better than nothing“ Kagami mentioned standing in front of the boyfriend. „If I hadn‘t let you two out of my eyes nothing of this would have happened“

„It‘s not your fault, I should have just let him walk out of here without any more talking, but nope I didn‘t“

„Just let‘s forget about this honey. You won‘t see him during the time you‘re doing the penal work,“  Mrs. Agreste assured the blonde man, which nodded.

„Now I will miss work and school for a month because of this“

„That‘s not bad Adrien. It‘s just a month“ Emilie comforted the son.

„But in a month I will miss a lot of stuff at the school,“ Adrien complained. „These years are not getting easier“

„It‘s just this month here. Don‘t worry, there won‘t be another interruption“ Emilie assured making Kagami look down at the ground thinking about the unrevealed pregnancy.

„Another one would be awful“ Adrien pointed out getting an embrace from his mother.

„Come, let‘s get up. The lunch is ready for us“ Emilie digressed leading the son the stairs up leaving Kagami back and Gabriel, which came from the silver-colored car.

„Is everything okay?“ Gabriel asked earning a nod from the blue-haired woman. Gabriel moved on and Kagami watched the man walk up, afterward her kwami Longg appeared looking out from her pocket.

„You have to say Adrien, that you‘re pregnant“ Longg warned the holder.

„I know, but you heard what he said, he can‘t miss another time the school, just because of me“ Kagami answered making Longg sigh.

„Okay, but he should know that. He‘s the father of that child afterall,“

„I will do it,“

„Now?“

„Longg…..let me wait a bit“

„You said that last week and nothing happened“

„I was about to say it when Raiden interrupted us. You were even there“

„Okay you got a point…..but please...it‘s the best thing for both of you if you tell him it, you‘re not going to ruin anything with it. I promise“ Longg affirmed looking at the Japanese woman shrug her shoulders. „Think about it“ Kagami nodded and looked at the entrance of the mansion along with Longg, then walked the stairs up.
