In which Homelander thoroughly enjoys a quiet night in, his hand, and some ao3.
CW: Selfcest adjacent, Anal play, Masturbation,
âHis hand wraps firmly around your throat as he bends you over your desk with a low groan. The hard bulge in his costume grinds against your ass and each filthy thrust causes your hips to bump painfully against the wooden edge. The various knick knacks and office supplies decorating your space rattle with the movement. His hot breath causes you to moan as he whispers into your ear.
âI can do whatever the fuck I want.â
Homelander groans low in his throat as he strokes his cock languidly. The leather of the couch that was cool at first is now growing warm from the heat of his body. His cock twitches in his hand and a drop of precum drips down his knuckles onto the cushion. Heâs taking it slow tonight. He intends to draw out his pleasure now that he finally has the entire space to himself for the night.
Now that he has a son to raise, heâs had to stop being so bold about where and when he decides to take a load off and relax. Luckily he was able to pawn Ryan off on Victoria and Zoe for a sleepover. Vicky wasnât happy about the surprise but he isnât sure why. His son is a fucking delight. He plans to make the most of his free time as he reclines lazily and uses the remote in his free hand to scroll through the fanfiction on the screen.
He had found the stories maudlin and pathetic at first when he first stumbled onto the online community dedicated to writing about him. They made him laugh at how desperate and pathetic they were. Even the ego boost wasnât enough to erase the disdain towards the nobodies of the world who deigned to think that he would ever want to fuck them. Heâs so pristine in the stories. A white knight handsome savior to sweep them away from their problems. If only they knew the real him and not the puppet Vought made him into.
But that was when he had Stormfront on his arm. A perfect goddess to chase away the pangs of loneliness and who any ordinary mud person would pale in comparison to. When he lost her, he began to see the value in such pathetic fantasies. As he lost more and more control over his surroundings, it was comforting to disappear into this place where the world still revolved around him and he could see proof of devotion that wasnât just the steadily dropping points tacked to his name.
People still wanted him.
And sure, things might be looking up for him now. Heâs head of Vought and he finally has his beloved son by his side. He has an army of mindless fans ready to fight for him. But his bed is still cold and a man has needs. Thereâs an earnest quality to the writing that scratches an itch that isnât satisfied by the subpar porn Vought churns out. This is personal.
He grips his cock a little firmer and he twitches as he runs his thumb over his sensitive slit. He continues to read.
âHe can smell your arousal. It coats the back of his throat and he can taste it on the roof of his mouth.â
Homelander unconsciously licks his lips. Itâs not hard for him to conjure up the smell of sex in his mind. His own pleasure is already heady in his own nose. He whines and brings two fingers up to his lips and sucks. The salty tang of his own slick is filthy and his whole body throbs. His hipbones ache as he imagines what it would be like to be bent over, to lose himself to pleasure completely, to have all the worries and concerns knocked out of his brain. He can understand why this fantasy would appeal to someone so insignificant as the author. Itâs not a perspective that he would normally ever indulge in but thereâs something so tempting about it.
âYou struggle to catch your breath and muster any kind of defense as he continues to take up more of your space. One hand wraps around your throat and squeezes, cutting off your airflow even further. He can hear you clench around nothing and a smug smile spreads across his face.â
Still sucking on his fingers, his other hand drops the remote and wraps itself around his neck. He presses down cautiously and the restriction of his own airflow causes a wave of heat to flow through his veins. He bucks up into nothing with a low grunt.
âHe presses hot and hungry kisses against your jaw as his free hand grabs the waistband of your work trousers and tugs. The fabric rips easily and you canât even gasp in surprise as his fingers delve under your underwear to press against your hole.â
Homelander follows suit, taking his spit slick fingers out of his mouth and reaching down to tease around his rim. He gasps, sensitive. Heâs no stranger to touching himself here but itâs like a shock every time just how nice it feels. He wonders what the inbred brain dead hicks who worship him would think if they knew their fearless hero liked a little ass play. Would they still grovel? Would they keep him on his pedestal? He laughs bitterly at the irony of his power over people still being reliant on fitting into the narrow insipid boxes they feel like putting him in. He has everything heâs always wanted but heâs still fucking trapped.
Tears prick at his eyes. Heâd started this just wanting to feel good but now his stomach is uneasy and his erection is already starting to flag. Even alone, he canât escape peopleâs expectations of him. He removes the hand from his throat and wipes at his eyes, self loathing building tight in his chest at how pathetic he is. He canât even get himself off properly and now heâs crying over it. He grabs the remote and goes to turn off the screen in self pity but his eyes catch the next words.
âTears prick at the corners of your eyes from the intensity of the situation. Everything is happening so fast and so much.
âShhhhhâ He whispers in your ear. âYou might as well just let it happen. Let yourself feel good. Itâs not like you have a choice.â
âItâs not like you have a choice.â
He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. He can hear his own voice echoing in his head. Itâs familiar and he follows where it leads. He brushes reality aside as he allows himself to sink back into the fantasy. He thinks about the ache in his hipbones and a body pressing him down and forcing him to relax. He puts his hand back on his throat, this time pressing harder until it borders on the hint of pain as his head swims. Idly he wonders where this written version of himself came from. How one measly author amidst the rush of saccharine romances managed to capture this raw real side of him.
He opens his eyes and squints so the world is a little fuzzy. The words on the screen blur but are still readable and as long as he has those he can block anything else out.
âYour body goes limp against the desk, becoming little more than a doll for him to play with. He dips his fingers into you, stretching you just enough to make you gasp before pulling back. Heâs gentle but inescapable and thereâs nothing that you can do except succumb to his touches. You moan pathetically as he finally takes pity on you, two deft fingers finally pressing in fully as they twist and curl until they find the spot that makes your legs tremble and shake.â
He whimpers as his fingers delve inside. Itâs been a while since heâs had the opportunity to do this and heâs tight. He huffs and he can feel the bobbing of his adamâs apple against his hand. He canât move yet as he focuses on relaxing his muscles until heâs no longer at risk of pushing his fingers right back out. The stretch feels good and his cock quickly swells back to its previous hardness. Heâs torn between reaching down to stroke himself or staying put and following along with the whims of the story. He crooks his fingers slightly and a strangled yelp leaves his lips as lightning shoots up and down his spine.
âTouch yourself.â Homelander instructs as he continues to scissor his fingers and stretch you out properly. âCâmon, donât make me do all the work.â
Homelander wastes no time. Heâs eager now that he has permission. He wishes that there was a way to keep the pressure on his neck but heâll have to think of something for next time. His cock throbs under his palm as he begins to stroke himself. The room fills with eager wet sounds and it allows him to sink deeper into the fantasy. He reads on, eager to know what heâll do next. It baffles him why anyone would want to leave him now that he knows how good being with him feels.
Heâd had an opportunity before, with Doppelganger. But it was wrong. It wasnât him. It was just a pathetic needy imitation. So ready to please that it reeked of desperation. Heâd seen something in âhisâ face that day that turned his stomach. Heâd needed it gone.
This is different. This fictional version of him is perfect, strong, determined, and willing to just take what he wants. Heâs perfect, like marble.
Homelander moans echo through the penthouse, filling up all the open space and desecrating the ears of the founding fathers. He has no need to be shy now that he has the place to himself again for the night. His cock is leaking all over his hand and dripping down onto the leather. The wet sloppy sounds of him working himself over are practically deafening to his sensitive hearing.
âThatâs it, Sweetheart. Doesnât it feel good to take some initiative. Itâs a good thing the rest of the tower doesnât have my hearing.â He goes quiet for a moment, allowing the sloppy sounds to echo through the empty room. âYou would not believe some of the things Iâve heard go on around here. For example, do you remember fucking yourself in the bathroom after I surprised you in the elevator the other day?â
A wave of shame and panic floods through you as the memory of the elevator comes back to you. You were too flustered to say anything then. You had been surprised that he would bother with an elevator at all. The masculine vetiver scent of his cologne was subtle but in the confined space it seemed almost suffocating. You hadnât said anything and he didnât bother to even acknowledge your presence. He didnât even look your way. Still, the strange intensity of the encounter had you running into the empty bathroom to relieve some stress. You wouldnât have been able to concentrate otherwise.
âNothing? I could practically smell you during my meeting. I could definitely hear you rubbing away.â He leans down to nip at your ear.â
Homelander briefly lets go of his cock to massage his balls, groaning loudly. He wants to prolong this but he can feel himself reaching the end of his rope. His abdomen is sore from the clenching of his muscles and he can feel his heartbeat in every fiber of his body. His lungs canât seem to get enough air as he gasps at the wave of arousal.
Something prickles at the back of his brain. The story ignites some synapse that sparks an unimportant memory. Itâs not enough to draw him out of his fantasy but somewhere in his hindbrain he logs it.
He imagines someone hearing him right now and his cock twitches. He gives a comforting squeeze as he wiggles the fingers inside himself again.
Fuck
âThe combination of his filthy words along with your eager rubbing has you coming undone before he even fucks you. You feel truly visible for the first time.. Homelander saw that embarrassing needy part of you and he wanted it. He tracked you down once the rest of the crime analytics team had left and bent you right over your desk.
âThere you go. Doesnât it feel better to come on my fingers instead of your own?â
FUCK
Homelanderâs vision goes red and hot as his fingers hit the spot inside him juuuuuust right. He tenses, entire body locking up, balls tightening, toes curling against the floor. He hangs weightless for a single moment before the storm of pleasure hits like a tidal wave. Hot ropes of come splatter all over his thighs and chest as he frantically strokes himself, milking himself of every last drop of pleasure. He bears down on his hand as he rides himself through it. He can hear his own voice ringing in his ears, the perfect voice of his best self.
âDoesnât it feel better to come on my fingers instead of your own?â
In his mind heâs bent over the desk with a warm body against his back. His hips are sore but his muscles are pleasantly relaxed for once. He feels safe and protected. A strong hand grips his hip to hold him steady as the other Homelander removes his fingers with a soft wet noise.
He slumps into the leather, pleasantly sated.
Once heâs regained his senses a bit, he reaches for the remote and clicks off the tv. Heâll have to remember to finish the entire fic later when his cock has recovered a bit. The black screen reflects his face and Homelander is surprised to see the pleasure drunk smile on his face. He canât remember the last time he smiled like this. Probably not since⊠He quickly shakes his head and shoves all thought of her from his brain. He doesnât need anyone else to get off. Heâs just fine on his own.
The little brain worm from earlier returns now that the room is quiet and distractions are gone. His mind still itches. Homelander clicks the tv back on and scrolls back up with a frown.
Crime analytics?
Most of the fics he reads are mindlessly generic. Most depict a banal office atmosphere when the setting takes place at Vought tower. Itâs very easy for him to tell when the author is an outsider. Name dropping a specific department is new. Not to mention, the way the office was described in the beginning was eerily similar to the large room where the crime department is locatedâŠeerily similar.
Homelanderâs heart pounds as he puts together the pieces. The author works at Vought and he knows in which department. The author has likely crossed paths with him. In fact, Homelanderâs stomach tightens as he skims the fic, the author has probably shared an elevator with him.
He checks the upload date.
One week agoâŠ
The unimportant memory floods back.
One week ago, heâd frightened a mousy crime analyst when heâd stopped the elevator for a ride. The little analyst never even looked directly at him. It was typical and not even worth the effort to get annoyed by. The sound of a fluttering heart and the scent of adrenaline were common occurrences no matter where he went. The moment he exited was the moment heâd already begun to forget.
Homelander sighs contentedly as he closes his eyes and lets himself bask in the afterglow. Curiosity sated, he lets his mind wander. Maybe heâll surprise his little writer tomorrow and let them properly enjoy the fantasy this time. Itâs the least he can do.
He reaches down and touches his hip, the phantom soreness still lingering.
After all, he knows just how good it feels to be fucked by him.

Center Stage in a Gilded Cage (chapter eight)
18+ 5.5k. homelander x f!reader. stalking, kidnapping, imprisonment, abuse, forced relationship, slow burn, suicidal ideation/close call, dubcon, oral sex, penetrative sex. fic directory | AO3
It isnât love like they tell it in fairy tales. Itâs love the way the poets write it. Itâs blood and tears, a gnawing hunger that eats you from the inside out, leaves you empty and clawing to cram something into yourself as replacement. Itâs love like an infection, a fever that never fades. Itâs devotion and yearning that runs so deep it turns into violence.
For the next several mornings, you make breakfast as usual.
The heat of the gas range and the hissing sizzle of the eggs are always slightly muffled. Time itself moves strangely around you, like youâre standing under a waterfall flowing in reverse. Minutes tick on like hours, but the hours go by without you noticing them at all.Â
As the daysâthey could be weeks, youâve stopped keeping trackâpass, that night of intimacy with Homelander feels more and more like a fever dream than a memory. If you really try, however, the details of it are simple enough to recall, if not a touch hazy.Â
The part of it thatâs a struggle is believing any of it actually happened. When you do put your mind to remembering it, itâs as though it happened to someone else. You were an outsider to your body, and now that youâre yourself again, youâre left to ponder the actions of that stranger.
Itâs your body that holds onto the reality of it for you. Your stomach still feels faintly tender from the nausea and vertigo of flying. The penthouse air feels stale in your lungs compared to the winds whipping above the city. Your heart pounds whenever your jaw feels tight with the memory of his hand clamped over your mouth, but perhaps the most vexing aspect of it all is the way the throb of your pulse now echoes loudest between your legs.
How your fear now comes laced with an unwanted tinge of arousal.
Youâd been left alone that night while Homelander attended a Vought function. He hadnât been gone long; just long enough for you to bathe. You hadnât felt up to eating, but he didnât notice. Heâd only cared about coming home, about taking you back into his arms, about breathing in the shower fresh smell of you and exhaling mine into the crook of your neck.
Never before have you felt more like a toy, a possession, a belonging than you did in that moment.
He hasn't touched you like that again since, though you think he aches to. You feel it in the way he squeezes your thigh when you watch movies together, how his hand drifts gradually higher, but it never progresses further than that. Sometimes heâll press against you in bed, but so long as you lay very still, he eventually drifts to sleep.
When heâs gone, you touch yourself. The ache is there, the pleasure faint, but itâs never quite enough to put you over the edge. Itâs never enough to give you the kind of reliefâthe kind of escapeâyou felt with him. Your body feels like kindling without a spark, the sensations empty.
You wonder what it would take to prompt him back into that kind of frenzy, that single-minded drive to pleasure you. Would he do it again if he saw you crying?
Iâm doing this for you. For us. Iâm doing this because you donât know how to let yourself be happy.
Could he have been right? Have you ever really known how to make yourself happy?
A touch to your waist snaps you from your introspection, startles you into jerking. The pan in your grip would have gone flying if not for Homelanderâs hand on your elbow, steadying you.
You completely forgot you were cooking breakfast.
âEggs are burning,â he tells you, reducing the gas to nothing. Theyâre far from black, but it doesnât take much to turn eggs from edible to rancid, the sulphuric smell burning your nose. You can only imagine the havoc itâs wreaking on him.
It isnât the first time youâve burned a meal since that night. His tone indicates heâs come to expect it.
âOh,â you say noncommittally, staring at the curled dark edges, the solid yellow yolk.
His hand slides absently from your hip to your waist. Heâs become so familiar in these casual touches, they donât even make your heart lurch in your chest anymore.
âItâs fine,â he says, clearly reading disappointment in your indifference. The timbre of his voice is ambiguous, but somehow you donât really think itâs fine. He must be losing his patience with you. His arms slip around your waist like two coiling serpents. âPlenty of time for you to start over.â
Still, he wants you to fix it. Burned eggs donât suit this idyllic fantasy.
Why bother? you wonder. He peppers light kisses on your neck, lips brushing over a kiss-bruised patch of skin. The heat of his mouth makes you shiver, makes your belly feel tight and hot. You canât tell anymore whether the heat is anger or arousal. Youâre not even going to eat it.
Nevertheless, you scrape out the botched eggs and start over, keenly aware of your pulse echoing faintly between your thighs, and the weight of Homelanderâs gaze on you.
Predictably, you eat, and he toys with his food like itâs all a silly game of make-believe. Plastic eggs, foam toast, pretend girlfriend. Homelanderâs obsession exists not in whatâs real, but in the performance of domesticity. Every day, the idea of whatâs real becomes a little more subjective. A little more abstract.
When he goes to leave, he kisses your cheek.
âThank god itâs Friday,â he says, your chin pinched between his bare thumb and middle forefinger knuckle. Heâs taken to touching you more and more without his gloves on. âI made sure I donât have any weekend obligations, which means youâlucky ladyâfinally get me all to yourself.â
Thatâs new. Normally his weekends are even busier than his week.
Sensing his anticipation for your positive reaction, you smile faintly. âDonât keep me waiting.â
His eyes widen just a fraction, as does his smile. Itâs something of an experiment, a deviation from your automatic daily âHave a good day,â and you see the excitement of it written plainly in his expression.
âI wonât,â he says, softer, grip flexing minutely on your chin. He tarries just long enough that you begin to think he may not leave after all. Instead, he takes in a breath and drops his hand to the door panel, using his print to disengage the lock.Â
âThis will be good for us,â he says quietly, lingering in the doorway for just a moment longer than usual.
The door closes behind him. The green circle turns blue, and the locking mechanism re-engaging is the last bit of noise you hear. The door is thick enough that you donât even hear his steps echo down the hallway.
Crossing your arms, you stand there for a while, staring at the door. The number pad is shiny from disuse, the buttons a gleaming silver. Youâve never seen him bother to input the code. Testing them without pressing, theyâre cool to the touch under your finger, and after a beat, you input a code.
0476. Americaâs birthday.
The blue circle flashes red, and you sigh. You would have been angry with yourself if itâd been that easy anyways.Â
For another day, you whittle your hours away on nothing, distant from yourself and your feelings. Music drones in your ears like static. Television feels alien and incomprehensible. The whole world is upside down, but itâs as though youâre the only one whoâs noticed, whoâs being forced to adapt.
Terrible as it is to think, the days are better when Homelanderâs here.
You walk the penthouse in familiar patterns like a zoo animal in a too-small enclosure, bereft of enrichment. Knowing what you know about him, it feels like giving him too much credit to think the deprivation is intentional, that heâs putting in an effort to make you miss him in the time heâs gone. It seems more likely that he really is just incredibly ignorant of the basic needs a person has.
Youâre not an animal. Youâre more like a doll that he puts on the shelf until heâs ready to play with you again.
Coming to the balcony, you pull open the door and step outside, hand tight on the door frame. The wind lashes at you, stealing your breath for a split second in the way it always does before you adjust. Itâs bright out today, the sky a crisp blue. Itâs the kind of rich blue youâd never normally see through the smog on ground level, which always leaves it desaturated.
The clouds look near enough to touch, were you brave enough. Even standing just outside the doorway, your bare feet against the ice cold cement, is enough to make you weak in the knees. Your heart knocks against your ribs like it means to escape, but the feeling has grown so familiar, you donât back away.
The fear, you realize, is the only thing that makes you feel present in your own body.Â
Living with Homelander has forced you to swallow back your instincts so frequently, it comes more naturally now to take a step forward than to run away, your hand slipping from the doorway.
Your heart is in your throat as you near the middle point of the balcony, more and more of the city below coming into view. Your breaths grow shallow, and despite how calm you think you are, your stomach launches into a series of violent somersaults, your eyes glued to the thinning edge of the balcony.
No matter how tattered your thoughts and feelings are, your body reacts. It knows how to keep you safe. It screams and screams and screams as you press on.
Thereâs nothing around you to steady or brace yourself on. You feel imbalanced, top-heavy in a way that makes you sway, your poor heart lurching with it. Youâre too scared to blink, unwilling to risk even a split second of darkness for the fear you might pitch forward.
Closing your eyes only makes it worse, reminds Homelander, his voice unbidden in your mind.
Itâll pass.
Itâs worth it.
Trust me.
âWhy?â you snap aloud, startling yourself. Why, even now, is he with you?
Whatâs your alternative?
The air is thin out here. Your eyes water, buffeted by the winds. Your chest feels tighter now, and every breath you take is more hard fought than the last, your lungs constricted. Tears start to roll down your cheeks, though the wind is quick to wick them away.
Your whole body sings with your fear. The adrenaline feels like an extra layer of skin beneath yours, filling your veins with tension and strength. The longer you endure it, the more aware of yourself and that change you become. You take another step towards the edge. Your mouth is sandpaper dry, pins and needles prickling your skin all over.Â
Donât look down. Look out.
You lift your gaze to the horizon, exhaling a shaky breath. You take another tentative step forward, relieved when your foot hits solid ground. You canât see exactly where the ledge ends anymore. Another step, and then another. Thereâs nothing to hold you back. Nothing to keep you from walking.
Finally, you close your eyes, and move to step forward.
Youâll take care of yourself, wonât you?
You gasp, eyes snapping open. Your balance waivers, and as your gaze drops, you see the empty space where your foot was about to fall.
 If not for yourself, youâll do that for me, yeah?
You pitch yourself backwards so hard that you fall, landing on your ass with a pained noise. You choke on the tension in your throat, your whole body shaking as you haul yourself backwards, bare feet scratching against the pavement. You flip onto your hands and knees and clamber back inside, hastily slamming the door shut behind you before you let go a gut wrenching sob, the sound of it strained, agonized, barely enough breath in your lungs to birth it.Â
You put your back to the door and you cry until your voice runs hoarse, until all the muscles in your stomach hurt and your tears run dry. Itâs an ugly, visceral cry that leaves you dizzy and weak-limbed, the space behind your eyes throbbing in a dull headache.
There is an alternative. Youâre going to find it.
Eventually you manage to drag yourself up from the floor and to the bedroom. The exhaustion that hits in the wake of yourâwhat, lapse in judgment? Temporary insanity? Whatever you call it, itâs left you so worn out that all you can do is collapse on the bed, your muscles aching.
From the ceiling, your reflection stares back at you. You hardly recognize that face as yours anymore. Time and time again she makes choices that arenât yours and experiences the world in a way you never could have imagined.
Homelander may have convinced you to look at yourself, but only now do you think youâre starting to see yourself as you are. As you must be.
You close your eyes, exhaling a slow breath. You begin to forget the balcony, the steps forward, the fall. It slots into a distant place somewhere in the back of your mindâwhere all things like it goâand after a time youâre left with nothing but the thrumming of your own body.
The echo of fear and thrill. The memory of adrenaline coursing through you like fuel, like poison, like divinity. Never before have you felt the kind of power you did when you took those steps. Fear has no control over you. It wasnât even what stopped you.
You stopped yourself. You took control.
It leaves you electrified. You touch your tingling fingertips to your lips, where the numbness of them makes them feel like someone elseâs. You trail them down your chin, your jaw, your throat. Instead of fighting it, you lean into the idea of this other you.
Hand drifting lower, you close your eyes. Instantly that haunting night comes back to you: Homelanderâs mouth on your neck, your chest, your lips, his fingers curling inside you while youâthat stranger behind your eyesâgasped in pleasure and kissed him back.
You try to replicate his touch. Slow, firm, full of desire and intent. Your stomach flips at the memory of it. How he kissed you like he meant to devour you, how enraptured he became with your pleasure.Â
Iâll make you happy if youâd just let me.
Swallowing, you skirt your fingers along the waistband of your pants, teasing the exposed skin there. He had taken your fear, your anguish, and twisted it into something with teeth.Â
Something inside you that hungered.
You have no idea how fucking good I can make you feel.
Slipping under the fabric, you push your fingers into your underwear and touch yourself in every way you remember him touching you.
The chill of your fingersâstill cold from the balconyâis stark against the heat between your legs. Your pussy feels velvety under your fingers, soft and slick with arousal.Â
Look whoâs all wet.
You let out a shuddering breath. Trying to replicate his touch only drives home how wholly inhuman he really felt. The unyielding strength in him, how his fingers felt like anchors inside you, grounding you, keeping you so entirely at his mercy that you had no choice but to let go, to give in.
Thereâs no such plausible deniability here. Heâs gone, and yet here you are envisioning him, imitating him, allowing the version of him in your mind to have what youâd been sure he would always have to take. You screw your eyes shut tighter, exhaling a throaty noise as you push your fingers sharply in.
Your hips rock steadily. The harder you try, the less right it feels. You attempt to relax, to let yourself focus on what it feels like now instead of what it felt like then, what it felt like with him. How relentless he was, peppering insistent kisses everywhere he could reach. You touch your neck, press into the tender mark he sucked there. Your pussy clenches at the sensation, and finally you feel as though youâre on the right track.
Something electric begins to crackle inside you. A low, dull pressure that builds gradually. You deepen your breaths, finding a rhythm, losing yourself piece by piece to the dozens of hands pulling at you in your mind. Tearing your clothes, sinking into you, holding you pinned, all of it impossibly happening at once while youâre simultaneously ravaged by lips, tongue and teeth.
Your eyes snap open when a grip like steel snatches your wrist, shocking you out of your fantasy.
Homelander stands over you.
His vibrant blue eyes are dark and glazed over, his lips parted. Heâs not looking at you, but instead at your glistening fingers. He tilts your hand, enraptured by how the wetness of them catches the light.Â
A visceral rush moves through you, heat and shame and excitement and outrage all in dizzying measure. You move to yank your hand back, but despite the looseness of his grip, the curl of his fingers is unyielding. He doesnât even seem to notice.
With his other hand braced on the headboard, he leans in at the same time he pulls you closer, his eyes falling shut as he sucks two of your fingers into his mouth.
The heat of it shocks you all over, makes your stomach drop in a hot and sudden broil. His tongue slides up the seam between your fingers, pushing between them, licking away every single trace of slickness from them.
âHomelander,â you rasp, tone ambiguous in the flux of your inner turmoil.
His eyes open part way, landing on you heavy and hungry. He pulls your fingers from his mouth with an obscene, wet noise. His tongue moves over his top lip in a slow slide, dipping around his sharp canines. His breaths are shallow, nostrils flaring on every heavy inhale. Heâs barely tasted you and yet he looks drunk on it, cheeks flushed red.
âWhat were you thinking about?â he asks, his voice guttural, raw with open and eager desire.
For once, the truth and what you know he wants to hear are one in the same. It sits on your tongue with the weight of an anchor, his expectant gaze a bottomless ocean.Â
If you give it to him, are you prepared to sink?
Whatâs your alternative?
âYou.â
Homelander groans.Â
He releases your hand and takes hold of your hips instead, yanking you to the edge of the bed with such ease of force it makes you gasp. He yanks your pants off with a sharp pull, though he manages not to tear them this time.
The feverishness that he touches you with makes your whole body sing, instantly sparking the ember youâd been tending into a blazing fire. Your blood races with adrenaline, desire surging alongside instinctual fear, the two intermingling to the point where you can no longer discern one from the other.
âI was thinking about yesterday,â you say, breath hitching for the way he kisses his way down your stomach, fingers biting into your hips. âThe way you touched me.â
Like gasoline splashed over a flame, your words intensify the ravenous fire of him. He sinks to his knees, your legs hitched over his shoulders, peppering kisses along your inner thigh, hands cupped under your ass, which heâs pulled completely off the bed.
Your heart thunders in your chest while his hot huffs of breath so close to where youâre wet and wanting make you shiver. His fingers dig into the meat of your thighs, the thrum of his restraint an effortless reminder of all that he is, all that heâs capable of. The awareness of how easily he could tear you apart is no longer frightening. Instead, itâs the understanding that he wonât that thrills you.Â
In the same way you couldnât stop him when he wanted to please you, if Homelander wanted to hurt you, you couldnât stop him. There is a surreal freedom in that, a permission to let go of the weight of fear and responsibility for yourself, for your actions.
Reap the reward.
He kisses all the way to the core of you, where his mouth closes over your clit, hot and wet and devouring. His tongue slides around and over, the rolling pull of his lips coaxing a deeper pleasure.Â
All the while he holds you firmly in place, trapping you in relentless euphoria. His mouth is just as merciless as the rest of him, never needing to pause or take a breath. Heâs machine-like in his rigor, but the fervor of his consumption is decidedly animalistic.
You can hardly catch your breath in the onslaught. Reaching down, you thread your fingers into his hairâitâs softer than it has any right to beâand pull hard. That earns you a throaty moan from him, the vibrations of it adding an entirely new element of sensation.
Your grip on his hair tightens sporadically, sharp little tugs that match the staccato cadence of your breaths. His tongue moves down, focusing instead on fucking you in shallow but powerful thrusts. The strength of it, the underlying hum of barely contained power that courses through him, and the sheer relentlessness of his stamina drives you wild against his mouth.
Between plunging his tongue into you and sucking on your clit, he drinks you down noisily, a parched man gulping from an oasis. You use what little leeway his grip allows to grind against his tongue, riding the tidal wave of your building release all the way to the top.Â
His hand slides inward, fingers splayed to support your weight while his thumb dips deep enough to slip into you, finally giving your pussy something solid to squeeze. Itâs enough to tip you over the edge. You push your other hand into his hair and hold on for dear life, arching your back with a cry that fills the entire penthouse as pleasure overtakes you, crashing down on you like a tsunami.
Like before, Homelander doesnât take your climax alone as an invitation to stop. A man possessed, he licks, sucks and kisses your throbbing clit through every single aftershock of your orgasm. Pleasure eventually trails into discomfort, a slight tingling burn that finally gives you the strength to push him away.
He doesnât relent right away, too lost in you to feel the meager protest. You push harder, making a noise somewhere between a moan and a whimper, overstimulated, and he finally withdraws, giving one last noisy slurp before setting you back on the bed and rising. Heâs painting, face is shiny and wet with your slick, his pupils blown completely black.
In your euphoria addled delirium, the look of him makes you want to run far away as much as it makes you want to kiss him.
Licking his lips, he crawls up your body, his gaze still predator hungry. You catch his face between your palms, your breaths still shallow, and marvel at how raw he looks.Â
For all your fears about what he could be hiding from you, Homelander has never been anything but brutishly upfront. He told you who and what he was the moment you woke up in his bed. You can understand his logic nowâwhy bother muddying the waters with needless lies? He never deceived you because he wanted you to know who he was, and who he expected you to be.
Even now, he is an open book to you. Your pleasure is mine, his expression declares. The claim is in his eyes, shining on his lips, in the heady scent of it on his breath. You are mine.
And he is, without a shadow of a doubt, yours.
You trace his bottom lip with your thumb, transfixed by the way he followed it, pressing wet kisses to the pad. You tilt your thumb forward, grazing his teeth. His bottom canines are sharp, and when you press your thumb down on one of them, he closes his lips around it, sucking on it with a needy little noise that lances heat straight through you.Â
Despite the immensity of his power, heâs malleable in your hands. You pull, he follows, huffing out shallow little breaths. You pull your thumb away and he looks at you with cloudy eyes, brows tightly pinched. Between your bodies, he fusses with his belt until it clicks loose.
âStop,â you breathe, pressing a hand to his chest.
His expression twists, damn near wounded. âWhaâwhy? I thoughtââ
You kiss him before he can put himself in another rejection induced spiral, licking the words right out of his mouth before you say, âTake the suit off.â
Another soft groan from him before heâs lifting off of you, unfastening his suit. You take the opportunity to shed the last of your layers, your heart racing. You half expected him to rush, to fumble in his hurriedness, but despite his obvious excitement, heâs methodical in removing his suit, placing it on the rack in the way he always does.
Itâs almost long enough to give you time to think about what youâre doing, about whether the pounding in your chest is thrill or not. That same primal part of you is shouting to run, and you are running, just not away. Youâre tired of running away. This time, youâre running headlong into Homelander.
And he catches you.
Heâs upon you before you can examine it any further, bare skin hot against yours. He kisses the column of your throat, breathing you in.
At the first nudge of his cock, a breathy little noise escapes you. He savors grinding the head of it tantalizingly against your clit, moving through the mess heâs made of you. Youâre soaking wet, thighs coated in saliva and slick. He presses his chest down against yours and the heat of him makes you shiver.Â
He isnât putting his full weight down on you, but the sheer force of him over you is suffocating. Breathing makes you feel as though youâre pressed against a brick wall, stifling you. Trapping you. You start to shake your head.
âWait, wait, hold on,â you say, fighting the welling panic in your throat. âRoll over. On your back.â
Confused but not opposed, he does as heâs told, moving off of you and onto his back. You swing your leg over him, and he instantly understands, grasping your hips to help gather you into position over him. His lips split into a wide grin, dark eyes glinting wickedly.
âFuck yes,â he breathes, squeezing your hips. Thereâs a giddiness to him, like part of him didnât believe that this would happen, much less that you would ever be the one leading it.
Straddling his thighs, sitting just behind his cock, you can feel the tension of his excitement thrumming throughout his body. With control on your side, you move forward, reaching between your legs to angle him into the right position.
His grip on you flexes as he fights with himself to stay still while you descend slowly, the swell of him splitting you open in one slow, hot slide.
Gravity brings you down most of the way, but a jerk of his hips that he pulls you into bottoms him out, and you both gasp with the suddenness of it, your body locking up around his throbbing cock.
âSorry, sorry,â he pants, but his grip doesnât ease. Like heâs lost control of himself, he holds you firmly in place while he fucks you, watching you through heavily lidded eyes, lips parted. ïżœïżœïżœSâgood, sâfuckinââso fucking good,â he moans, expression twisting in pleasure.Â
Itâs too much all at onceâHomelander always isâbut you take it, gripping his wrists. He fucks like a machine, each thrust a shock to your system, momentum building into quicker, harder thrusts.
âS-slow down,â you half moan, practically choking on the overwhelming fullness of him inside you. He isnât thrusting in and out so much as heâs grinding into you in shallow bursts, carving out the shape of himself within you like he intends never to leave.
âTake me so good,â he murmurs, and if not for the slight slow down of his thrusts, youâd think he didnât hear you. He sits up, the ease with which he moves even with you on top of him still throwing you for a loop. âKnew you would, knew youâd be mine, all mine. Made just for me.â
His hands slide up your body, one arm moving around your waist while his hand slides up to cup the back of your head. He kisses you, pins your chest to his, ensures you feel every ounce of his desperation to be with you, near you, inside you.
Itâs more than being fuckedâitâs like being taken apart so that you can be put back together around him. A permanent emptiness in his perfect image.
You were not made for him. You have been remade.
The next thing you know, Homelander is standing up, your legs hitched around his waist, ankles locked behind him. You wrap your arms around his neck and gasp for the way the position brings him in deeper yet, every bounce on his cock heavier now.
âLook at me,â he rasps. You donât remember closing your eyes, but you open them at his prompt, looking at him through the delirium of heat and pleasure. His dark eyes are glassy, and heâs looking at you with such raw, vulnerable love that it makes your heart twist in agony. âI love you.â
You take a breath, your own eyes welling with tears, and you kiss him.
I believe you, you think, tears rolling down your cheeks while the pressure of climax builds steadily back up.
It isnât love like they tell it in fairy tales. Itâs love the way the poets write it. Itâs blood and tears, a gnawing hunger that eats you from the inside out, leaves you empty and clawing to cram something into yourself as replacement.
Itâs love like an infection, a fever that never fades. Itâs devotion and yearning that runs so deep it turns to violence. Itâs desperation and the all consuming desire to be accepted for what you are, no matter the ugliness of it. Itâs the most raw form of need a person is capable of.
Itâs survival.
The kiss breaks and he presses his forehead to yours, your shallow breaths mingling hot and wet in the narrow space between your mouths.
The rest of the world falls away in jagged piecesâcircumstance, fear, pity, hatred, painâand narrows only to the two of you; your bodies joined, your gazes fixed on one another, and the electric pleasure of the friction between you.
âIââ you gasp, choking on your own words as he fucks you to the razors edge of release. âI love you, too.â
Maybe heâs broken you, or maybe itâs impossible to live in madness without going a little mad yourself.Â
He makes a noise like youâve gutted him, eyes screwed shut. He slams in once, twice, thrice more and you lose yourself to the heat of it all, breath stolen from your lungs by the crash of release that overwhelms your every sense.
You lose track of time, of the hammer of his body against yours. He comes shortly after, stilling deep inside you with a rush so hot that it makes you gasp into the crook of his neck, where you let yourself collapse. Youâre dead weight in his arms, but you may as well weigh nothing at all for the toll it takes on him.
Sinking down to sit on the edge of the bed, he embraces you like that for a long while. Your euphoria keeps you on a cloud somewhere high above, serving as cushioning between how you feel and what you know. Just like yesterday, mindless pleasure is an intoxicating reprieve from reality, and youâre thoroughly drunk on it.
He rubs your back in slow familiar patterns. You idly toy with the hair at the nape of his neck, which prompts him to pepper you in languid kisses. Touching you like this comes to him as naturally as breathing. Your bodies slot together like two pieces of a puzzle that were long lost from each other.
âSee?â he whispers, easing your bodies down onto the bed, under the covers. âI didnât break you.â
You offer a dazed smile, not quite as certain that he didnât. Your pelvis aches slightly, an overall tenderness to you akin to the pain youâd feel the day after a particularly hard fall.
That isnât the ache youâre concerned about, though. Itâs the one in your chest that gives you pause.
âThereâs still time.â
His brows furrow while he processes the words, but after a beat, he smiles, taking it as a playful challenge.
âArenât you just full of surprises?â
Yes, you think, settling your head on his chest, listening to the steady pound of his heart. I certainly am.
Exhaling a deep breath, you close your eyes, content to allow yourself this respite, however brief.
In hindsight, you will always remember this moment as the quiet just before the storm.

I donât want anything, I just have homelander thoughts to share.
So Iâve been thinking about the weird stuff about HL. Granted, all of him is weird, but the uncanny valley things about him is something I love to think about. His canines are just a bit âštooâš long from having so much V in his system. Eyes a bit too blue; in his youth, his hair is just a shade of yellow from being unnatural. I feel like he doesnât blink all that much, and when heâs not in performance mode, heâs too⊠disjointed? Like his movements might not flow into one another as much, like a puppet controlled by different operators in each joint. Or maybe they flow too well. I just have so many thoughts about it.
You're so very right. And I love everything you just said. Reminds me of this post because he stands in such an awkward way. There's always been something uncanny valley about him. But it's interesting when it's just the combination of all these normal things that in a normal human we wouldn't notice. Or at least not think it's weird.
I feel like the suit must be really awkward to walk and stand in so it's forced him to act like a puppet; just like you describe. But part of it is definitely his upbringing. When every step you make is analyzed by scientists for well over a decade, you'd too grow overly aware of the way you look and how you move.
He's good at performing his role but when he strips down to his 'undercover' outfit he looks so strange in it. Still walking as if there was a cape swishing behind him. Just his posture is very different from the norm. There's very little natural fluidity to him, one we'd only see from him when he's flying, but besides that it's all learned and performed.
Have you ever seen that husky who grew up around cats and now sits like one and plays like one? That's what Homelander reminds me of. He's just imitating what he's seen everyone else do, not truly understanding the natural flow that comes with being normal. It's not the way he was brought up so that's why it feels so disjointed.
#idk how visible this is in the show or Antony's acting#but i take this on as a fanon#he's a strange guy to meet#just like celebrities obvs it feels different to meet him but theres more to it#teeth and smile so sharp its like youre gonna get bitten if you say something wrong#i loved this ask#love your brain for this#asks!#homelander headcanons

Center Stage in a Gilded Cage (chapter seven)
18+ 7k. homelander x f!reader. stalking, kidnapping, imprisonment, abuse, forced relationship, slow burn, heavy dubcon, fingering, clothed/unclothed, dry humping. gif credit | fic directory | AO3
As promised, Homelander allows you an opportunity to say goodbye to the life you knew. After which, he does what he must to prove that you belong withâand toâhim.
Days spent with Homelander are simultaneously long and yet strangely fluid, hours blending seamlessly into one another. Every day that he comes home, you endure the flip into what youâve privately begun to refer to as âperformance mode,â in which youâre playing the role of doting girlfriend.
So long as you maintain the idea that itâs a performance, you donât have to think too much about how good the heat of his body feels against yours. You donât have to question the ease with which youâve taken to toying with his hair while the two of you watch television, or why you donât mind it so much when he rests his head in your lap.
There was a day he came home early and caught you absently dancing in the living room while you tidied. That alone was embarrassing, but it was mundane enough of a thing to be brushed aside, to forget. Except that he wouldnât. Heâd fixated on it like a dog with a bone, and youâd had to endure his relentless teasing about it for the rest of the day.
âYou act like youâve never seen anyone dance before,â youâd said.
âI havenât,â he said. âNot here.â
Your role here has many names: girlfriend, cook, therapist, maid, lover, and reinventor. Itâs about more than just romance. It's a complete transformation of his empty, lonely world.
Itâs what you must do to survive.
You learn quickly that heâs a creature of habit, favoring the same routine each day. He gets out of bed at the same time every day, showers for the same amount of time, and asks for the same breakfast that he does not eat.Â
It drives you crazy to cook a breakfast only to find yourself emptying it into the garbage not an hour later, but the drastic and often unpredictable fluctuations in Homelanderâs moods have made you reluctant to question or criticize him.Â
Besides, what do you care if he eats your food?Â
Caring is a creature with sharp teeth. It sinks its fangs into the deepest part of you and opens you up to deeper infection. Caring can hurt more than a punch, more than broken bones, more than anything that bleeds. Caring doesnât break you clean. Itâs a bone that doesnât set, a cut that doesnât close. Caring is to be vulnerable, to live as an open wound, and one thing youâre entirely certain of is that Homelander cannot be trusted with your vulnerability.
Yet you could not bring yourself to turn away from him. Not after he snapped at you, not after he screwed his eyes shut, not even as he began folding in on himself like a dying star readying to implode. Even though every primal instinct in you told you to run, your feet remained rooted.
You took him into your arms for the same reason you smother a flame rather than blow on it. In doing so, part of you has caught fire, embers continuing to burn.
The way he kissed you lingers on your lips like a ghost. His touches haunt every part of your tingling body, your fingertips numb with adrenaline as you pick up the containers from the coffee table. You can still feel the trail his hot mouth seared down your throat, branding your skin with the memory of his hunger.
He hadnât embraced you so much as heâd clung to you, his hands testing every inch of the reality of you. He disappeared somewhere so deep in his own mind that it had shocked him stiff when you held him.
A panic attack�
Strong hands settling on your hips break you out of your daze. Looking over your shoulder, you see Homelanderâs smiling face. His eyes are bright and clear, his cheeks no longer streaked with tears. If you didnât know betterâknow how easily and abruptly he can switch gearsâyouâd think you had hallucinated the entire thing.
âOh, sorry,â you say, recognizing that expectant look on his face. Whatever he said, you didnât hear it. âI was just thinking. What did you say?â
He huffs a little laugh. âGeeze, talk about a space cadet. Câmon, letâs get you airborne!â
Though your stomach flips, you nod.
Iâll take you flying again. Youâll be conscious this time around.
As soon as you have the containers of food safely tucked into a bag, he wastes no time scooping you up into his arms. The ease with which he lifts you is jarring; itâs less like being picked up by a person, and more like being strapped into a rollercoaster. Thereâs no sense of give in his strength, and all at once youâre shunted back to the memory of the night you were abducted.
It had felt the same way then, too. His arms coiled around you like steel, his chest a brick wall at your back. Heâd held you then as gently as he holds you now. No matter how hard you thrashed, there was no give.Â
No escape.
Your heart beats hard against your chest, apprehension tightening around your throat like a collar being pulled tight.
When will it stop feeling like this when he touches me?
The derangement of the thought strikes your addled mind belatedly. Never, you remind yourself. His touch should never evoke anything but the fear heâs earnedÂ
A sudden rush of cool air from the door opening hits your face, the shift in pressure briefly paralyzing your lungs, halting your shallow breaths. You turn your face from it, nestling instead into the thick, textured fabric of his suit while you fight to catch your breath.Â
Somewhere over the furious drumming of your heart, you hear him laugh, feel the rumble of his chest against your cheek.
He adjusts you higher up, bringing your face to the crook of his neck. Youâre more secure in his grasp this way, and admittedly, youâre grateful for it.Â
âRelax,â he purrs in your ear. âI wonât let you go.â
Yes, heâs made that abundantly clear.
In an effort to gain some modicum of control, you slip your fingers into the front of his suit collar, gripping the fabric tight. Itâs stiffer than you expected it to be, but it at least serves as a good handhold that way. His pulse can be felt in his throat, the beat of it fluttering against the backs of your fingers. Itâs quicker than you expected it to be.
You wonder what in the world he has to be nervous about.
âJust give me a warning before you take off, okay?â you ask, focusing on steadying your breathing.
âBefore I take off?âÂ
Thereâs a particular playful lilt to his tone that makes you uneasy.
âYes.â
âHm. Can we pretend I did that thirty seconds ago?â
You rear back to look at him, and before you can think better of it, you turn to look down. Your vision tunnels, the edges of it blurring as your eyes fight to adjust to the sudden distance between you and the earth.
The reality of it sets in. It was one thing to understand his capacity for flight in theory, what it would be like to fly with him, but nothing could have prepared you for this. Thereâs nothing stabilizing you but him, the plummet below a nauseating hundred storey drop. Against your every wish, your stomach starts to churn violently.Â
Tucking back against him, eyes screwed tightly shut, you mumble, âIâm gonna throw up.â
Homelander sucks in a breath through his teeth. âThatâs really gonna ruin someoneâs day down there.â
âShhhâup,â you slur, white-knuckling his collar with one hand, the other clutching the bag of food to your chest. âI changed my mind, take me back, take me back. Can we please just take the elevator and drive? I really donât want toââ
âHey, hey, relax,â he coos, tilting backwards, bringing more of your weight against his body. The movement only makes you feel sicker. âClosing your eyes only makes it worse. Yâgatta adjust.â
You shake your head and swear you can feel water sloshing back and forth in your skull. âTake me back, please take me back.â
Warm lips press against your forehead, his breath wafting over your scalp.
âItâll pass,â he says with the certainty of experience. âItâs worth it. Trust me.â
Trust him? The audacity of the ask is enough to make you temporarily forget your peril and look up at him through narrowed glassy eyes.Â
âWhy in the world would I trust you?â you ask through your teeth, emboldened by your incredulity despite the way the tension in your body makes your muscles tremble faintly.
His grin doesnât falter as he asks in turn, âWhatâs your alternative?â
Your lips part on an incredulous breath, disbelieving that he would be so blatant about it.Â
In the three days youâve spent with Homelander, there have been both ambiguous and unambiguous moments of cruelty. Moments where you were certain he was rubbing your captivity in your face, mocking you.Â
Other times he seems so desperately lost you can almost understand the way he clings to you. Times where his cruelty comes not from an understanding of what will hurt you, but a complete inability to comprehend that youâre a living, breathing person with your own complicated innerworkings. Â
âYouâre unreal,â you say, mystified by the enigma he presents.
âAnd youâre flying,â he says in your same tone, those ocean blue eyes glinting with self-satisfaction.
You take in a breath to retort, but pause. Though your grip on his collar remains tight, youâre no longer shaking. For a moment there, youâd honestly forgotten where you were. Leaning against him like this, with more of your weight supported on his wrought iron frame, you donât feel quite so much like youâre precariously dangling.
Though your heart is still racing, and your mouth's as dry as sand, you donât feel immediately ready to eject your lunch anymore.
âDonât look down this time,â he tells you, towards the horizon. âLook out.â
Hesitantly, you turn your head to follow his gaze.
The view is surreal.
The afternoon sky is a clear and vibrant blue that the maze of steel buildings below reflect, giving the entire city an oceanic hue. Hundreds upon hundreds of windows lit with warm lights dot the way like fireflies in a field.
In the distance, the sun has fallen low enough that it casts a golden glow across the water. It refracts the light in endless shimmering waves. The spectacle of it is enough to make you forget that this isnât some fantastical world, that you live here.
Never could you have fathomed seeing the world like this with your own eyes.
âFuck me,â you murmur, slightly dazed.
Homelander barks a laugh. âWhat, now?â
Ignoring him, you tentatively let your gaze drift lower. From this distance, all you can see of the lives below you are faint black dots, the flow of them reminiscent of an ant colony. The same loud bustling streets that you used to walk every day are silent from this vantage point, giving the city an uncharacteristic sense of calm. Itâs the worldâyour worldâas youâve never seen it before.Â
âSee?â You feel the heat of the word against your temple as much as you hear it, his lips brushing along your hairline. âI told you it was worth it.â
You tear your attention from the cityscape and bring it back to Homelander.
While youâve always distantly acknowledged that heâs attractive, heâs undeniably beautiful like this. Bathed in the glow of golden hour, his skin looks Midas touched, and the blue of his eyes is even more vibrant, the light giving them an almost crystalline appearance.
All over again youâre struck by the fact that, whether you want him or not, heâs inexplicably yours. Your captor, your roommate, your warden, your boyfriend, your gilded cage. Youâre only where you are nowâsoaring above the city beyond the confines of that penthouseâbecause you found it in yourself to be all the things he wants you to be. The more you give, the more you get.
Play your part. Reap the reward.
This is survival.
âYou were right. Itâs beautiful,â you say, relinquishing your grip on his collar to instead slip your arm around his neck, leaning in to press your cheek to his in a make-shift embrace. You feel his surprise in the slight hitch of tension in his body before he relaxes back into you.
âCan I ask you something? Something about us. Or⊠about me, I guess,â you say, staring at the world from over his shoulder. Only now has your pulse begun to calm enough that you can properly hear yourself over the rush of your own blood.
His flag of a cape billows in the wind behind him as he flies languidly through the air, giving you something near to focus on.Â
âSure you can,â he says, feigning ease that doesnât quite ring sincere.
He doesnât like it when you ask too many questions, or start poking holes in the idyllic little fantasy youâve been living for him.
âWhy did you choose me?â
Thereâs a pause while he mulls over the question, the droning winds around you filling the empty space. Your stomach gives a small flip as he shifts, changing his flight path, making you wonder if youâve made a mistake, said the wrong thing.
You draw back to meet his gaze, but his expression doesnât betray any kind of upset.
âIâll show you,â he says, the words punctuated by a wink, though the gesture doesnât exude his usual self assured bravado. Based on the tension in his jaw, you get the sense heâs actually masking a buried nervousness.
Within minutes, youâre soaring over a part of the city you recognize with stark familiarity. Seeing your route to work from this angle has a surreal quality to it, like remembering a dream in vivid detail. Itâs difficult to fathom that less than a week ago, this was your life.
Drifting to the ledge of a nearby building, he sits on the edge of it, adjusting you on his lap. While the height remains dizzying if you think too much about it, you canât deny that the warm strength of his arms have given you a firm sense of security.Â
âI used to come here a lot during my downtime. Between meetings and location work,â he explains, taking in a deep breath.
You do the same, cool air filling your lungs. Itâs warm out, but the altitude brings in enough of a chill from the ocean to offset the late afternoon summer heat.
âI got familiar with this spot. The people, their routines,â he says, head lightly bobbing side to side.
âYou saw me,â you fill in as understanding dawns.
âYeah. I saw you,â he echoes, following the walkways below as if heâs tracing your path to work in the same way you are. âEvery day.â
âYou were really out here every day?â you ask with a lilt of surprise, looking at him. âI never saw you before.â
âPeople almost never do. Youâd be surprised how rarely people ever look up.â
You hum quietly. Already you feel isolated from the world below. Nothing more than an observer. Knowing him as you do now, you can only imagine how outside of it all he really feels.Â
âDo you ever⊠go down there? Not as Homelander, but just as yourself.â
âI am Homelander.â
âNo, no, I know, butâŠâ You falter, wanting to be delicate. âYou were someone else first, werenât you?â
His gaze turns distant, no longer focusing on the streets below. âNo.â
You think again of the young boy in the empty room holding back tears, and your heart grows heavy in your chest. That childâand the man he grew intoâhad to have had a name once, didnât he? Itâs unfathomable to think he didnât. Homelander isnât really a name. Itâs a persona, a product patented and sold by Vought.Â
To have a name is to exist in peopleâs minds and hearts as a whole person. Whether the name is a gift or a choice, there is soul in a name. More than just an identity, a name is a love language. Be it a given name, nicknames, pet names, to name something is to love it.Â
Names begin in the heart, form on the tongue, become shaped by lips and cradled by voice. They're an intimacy not only of the body, but of the mind and soul.
Surely he has a name beyond the heroâs title of Homelander.
Project Odessa.
You take in a breath, the question poised on your tongue, but Homelander speaks first.
âI donât remember when, but you started to stand out. Couldnât take my eyes off you. I wanted to know more, so⊠I learned more. And I saw that you were lonely,â he says, but youâve learned to read between the lines when he tells you things about yourself.
I was lonely.
âYou needed someone.â
I needed someone.
âSomeone to take care of.â
Someone to take care of me.
âI wanted to save you.â
IÂ wanted you to save me.
âAnd I did.â
He looks at you then, his expression difficult to parse. Thereâs a challenge in his gaze, as if heâs daring you to contradict him, but that defiance isnât enough to cancel out the fragility that always seems to linger when he admits to any sort of genuine feeling.
âI saved you,â he reinforces, voice quieter, firmer.
Sitting hundreds of feet in the air, youâre reminded that this isnât a normal conversation.
This is a matter of survival.
Play your part. Reap the reward.
âThank you.â
The tight line of his lips relaxes, spreading into a smile. It radiates the same sort of satisfied pride that he always gets when you show him gratitude for all heâs done for you.
To me, you correct yourself, fighting to keep those lines from blurring. When you look at your life through his eyes, you cannot deny that it looks small. Inconsequential. Lonely. Sad.
None of that changes the fact that it was yours. That it is yours. That he had no right to take it from you when he had every opportunity to ask to be part of it.
The worst part is that, given the choice, youâre starting to feel like you would have said yes.
Itâs a conflicted kind of relief when he closes his eyes and presses his lips lightly to yours. The heat of his mouthâthe instant memory of his tongue, his teeth, his roaming handsâsends a hot rush through you, but unlike last time the kiss is fleeting and chaste.
âAaaalrighty,â he says, his voice suddenly full of vigor and performative boom. Itâs a wonder he doesnât give himself a headache with how quickly heâs prone to switching gears. âLetâs get this grubhub goinâ.âÂ
He pushes off of the ledge and your stomach lurches the way it would at the start of a rollercoaster, a drop followed by a sudden lift. Your arm tightens around his neck while his smile lingers, clearly pleased by the clinginess this has imposed on you.
You donât have to tell him where to go. He knows exactly the alley to land in, sinking between buildings to the very back, as not to be observed by the bustling crowd below. Youâd grown used to the noise of the crowds, but after several days of quiet, the clamor of New York is borderline deafening. It makes you wince and reflexively press on one ear, plugging it while you adjust.
Regardless of the noise, you feel an instant relief when your feet hit the ground. Homelanderâs hands linger on your hip and your elbow, steadying you.
âWell?â he prompts. âYou glad we flew?â
âLetâs not get carried away,â you say, huffing a quiet laugh. âI very much almost lost my lunch, but⊠yeah, Iâll admit it was worth it,â you say, checking on the containers of food packed away.Â
Youâd considered hiding some kind of message amidst the food, but it felt too risky. There was too good of a chance that Homelander would check, and if he did, you wouldnât have made it this far at all.
For all you know, he did check. Youâre still not certain if he really has x-ray vision, or if thatâs an invention of Voughtâs for the movies. Better safe than sorry.
Maybe you wonât need a hidden message. Maybe youâll be able to get across to John, without saying a word, that something isnât right.
âIf you wait here, Iâll beââ
âWhat, Iâm not allowed to meet your friends?â he interrupts, hands on his hips.
âOh, uh.â You blink, holding his gaze uncertainly. âI didnât⊠think youâd want to.â
Homelander waves his hand dismissively.
âIf heâs important to you, heâs important to me,â he says, slipping an arm around your shoulder and squeezing lightly.
âBesides, next to children, the unhoused are our most vulnerable population,â he says, sounding entirely too much like a politician with a list of talking points. âAnything could happen to him. I can keep a close eye on him for you, make sure he doesnât get into any unnecessary trouble.â
His smile is too wide, too wolfish, and with a terrible chill you understand the words for the threat that they are.
If John causes problems for him, Homelander will remedy them.
Am I making a mistake?
Swallowing thickly, you nod. âOkay⊠Sure.â
Despite how heavily Homelanderâs words hang over your head, you very nearly take flight yourself with the swell relief that hits you when you see John sitting at the end corner of the alleyway, hands busy with a Rubikâs Cube. Heâs an imposing looking man in his late thirties, bearded and tall, but heâs never made you feel unsafe. Heâs kind, and most importantly, heâs familiar.
You take in a sharp breath of excitement, his name on the tip of your tongue, but a crimson leather clad hand clamps over your mouth and pulls you back into the shadow of the building. Homelander pins you back against him, one hand keeping you quiet while the other slips around your middle, locking you in place.
Did he change his mind, or was this all just a game from the start? Your wide eyes prickle with tears.
âGround rules,â he says, voice low in your ear. âWeâve been together for a couple of weeks, but for your own safety, itâs been kept a secret. You quit your dead-end job and traveled to Europe with me, from which weâve just recently returned. Got it?â
Huffing shallow little breaths from your nose, heart racing, you nod.
âIf I see any funny business, Iâll break his neck.â
You close your eyes, every beat of your heart a painful jab. His voice has the same cool hollowness it did when he warned you not to lie to him. Itâs him, and yet simultaneously sounds like an entirely different person.
âNod if you understand.â
A beat, and then you nod.
âGood girl,â he says, his smile audible in his praise. His hand slips away from your mouth and he kisses your temple, straightening out your clothes. His arm slinks around your waist, hand settling heavily on your hip. âNow, letâs get this over with.â
Rattled, you rub the tears from your eyes and take in a steadying breath, trepidation replacing your excitement. Dread pools in your stomach, the tide of it rising with every step, but you still manage to smile once youâre in earshot of your friend.
âHey, John,â you call gently, lifting a hand to wave when he meets your gaze.
John does a double take, glancing up once, then twice, recognition flipping to confusion, and then rounding back to delight. He smiles broadly from beneath his wiry beard, pushing off of the wall heâd been leaning against.
âIâll be damned,â he says as he approaches you. âYou had me worried! I was beginning to think yââ he stops himself, belatedly noticing Homelander at your side. His eyes widen a fraction, and then his brows furrow.
In his myriad of expressions, you recognize yourself. That first night you woke up, how confused you were by where you were and who you were with. The whole thing felt like a dream, and John looks as though heâs wondering if this is one, too.
As a New Yorker, seeing Homelanderâor any member of the Sevenâin the flesh typically means one of two things: youâve stumbled onto a promotional event, or trouble is close at hand.Â
âIs everything alright?â he settles on asking, the priority of his concern for you instantly warming your chattering heart.
âMore than alright,â Homelander answers when you take too long, flashing a winning smile. He gives your hip a squeeze, prompting you.
You clear your throat, lifting the bag off of your shoulder. âYeah, yeah, yes, Iâve justâIâve been away,â you say, already tripping over the lies catching in your throat.Â
If I see any funny business, Iâll break his neck.
Thanks to you, Johnâs life rides on this conversation, and he has no clue. You kick yourself internally, desperate to get your shit together for both your sakes.Â
âIt was really impromptu, but, uhm, I didnât want you to worry, and I have news, so Iââ you flash Homelander a look, as if to say let me sell this, and he reluctantly withdraws his arm. âI asked Homelander if heâd come along, because I honestly didnât think youâd believe me,â you say, forcing out a little laugh.
John hesitantly takes the bag when you offer it, but heâs looking at you like youâve grown a second head, his eyes occasionally darting over to Homelander, who continues to stand akimbo behind you. âBelieve youâŠ?â
âThat Iâm dating Homelander,â you say, pulling your lips back in what you can only hope is a convincing smile, and not just a manic show of teeth.
âOh,â he says, looking no less puzzled.
The whole situation is bizarre beyond words. That you would come to him, an acquaintance that youâve known only through habit, through the quick conversations youâve had in the transitional spaces between work and home, seems insane. That you would care that he knows or that he believes youâre dating New Yorkâs premium hero.
Of course he wonât see that youâre a hostage. Why the hell would he?Â
You feel out of your mind the same way you did sitting on that stupid couch, punching in website after website after website. Itâs futile. Youâre outside, youâre right in front of another person, someone who would be just as horrified as you are to know the truth, and yet you canât say a damn thing.
This will always be true. Whether youâre standing in front of a stranger, an acquaintance, or your dearest loved ones, your truth will put them in danger.
All because of one lonely little boy.
Your smile holds firm, but your eyes well with tears.
âI quit my job,â you say, fighting back the sob threatening to choke you. âSo I wonât see you anymore. But I, uhmâI just wanted to say goodbye. So, goodbye,â you say, moving to turn away before your emotions betray you any further, but John catches you by the shoulder, his touch light and painfully human.Â
âHey, you take care of yourself,â he says, looking to be shaking off the shellshock from what youâve presented. âYâalways seem to be taking care of other people and their problems, so⊠Take care of you, too. If not for yourself, youâll do that for me, yeah? For old timeâs sake,â he says with a smile, giving the bag a little shake.
You stare at him, the confession of it all sitting heavily on the tip of your tongue.Â
Help me! you want to shout. I canât do this alone. I canât take care of this myself. I need help. Itâs too much. Iâm scared.
You start to move towards him, and his opposite arm opens, as if ready to embrace you.
âLucky for her,â Homelander interrupts, hoisting you suddenly into his arms and out of Johnâs reach, shattering any potential illusions. âSheâs got me to take care of her now,â he says, his Hollywood smile stretched instead into a thin sneer.
âGreat to meetâcha, pal,â he spits, voice devoid of any actual camaraderie. Tears burn in your eyes as his fingertips dig into you, his grip like a vice, like chains slipping back around your limbs. âEnjoy the food.â
Anything John might have said in response is swallowed up by the rush of air parting around him as Homelander shoots up into the sky, leaving your world in the dust, and any hope you had with it.
The flight back to the penthouse is quiet.
Homelander flies faster than he did on the way out, itching to be back within the safe, predictable confines of home. Youâre tense in his hold, but both of your arms are wrapped around his neck, your face tucked in under his jaw, and he takes pleasure in that, at least.
Itâs a miracle he didnât rip that filthy fuckers arm off for the way he grabbed you, for the way he tried to pull you into his arms.
God damn pervert is what he is.Â
Youâre too naive to see it, but he isnât, and there wasnât a fucking chance he was going to let the guy cop one last feel before you were spirited away for good. The thought alone is enough to set his teeth on edge, to make him consider paying the son of a bitch a little visit anyways.
He grits his teeth.
No one touches his things.
It sets off something primal in him. A gnawing, feverish compulsion to claim you so thoroughly there could be no doubt that youâre his. He wants to fuck you, to mark you so obviously that no other man will ever touch you like that again.
By the time he lands on the concrete slab of his balcony, youâre shaking up a storm. He maneuvers inside without putting you down, as youâve made no move to let go of him.Â
Something isnât right.Â
He rubs your back, mimicking the patterns you make when you rub his, pausing when you suddenly make a choked noise that sounds suspiciously close to a sob.
What the hell? He did exactly what you asked him to. Youâre supposed to be happy.
He carries you to his bed, a dozen versions of the two of you reflected back in the surrounding mirrors, and sets you down gently. Your arms slide loose from his neck and fall limply to your sides. Bending down, he cups either side of your face and brings your gaze up to meet his, perplexed to find your eyes brimming with tears.
âHey,â he says softly, swiping a tear from your cheek with his thumb as it falls. âYou got what you wanted, didnât you?â
You shut your eyes and make a sound he canât make sense of, something between exasperation and agony. Though you try to pull out of his grip, he holds you in place, refusing to let you run from this.Â
From him.
âNo, no. Look at me. I did what you asked,â he says, impatience slowly wringing the gentleness from his voice.
Your eyes are red and glassy, fat tears rolling down your cheeks and over his thumbs.Â
Christ.Â
This is a far cry from what he had in mind when he thought earlier about how youâd make it up to him.
âI canât do this anymore,â you sob, taking hold of his wrists. âI just want to go home.â
His expression falls, brows furrowed in confusion, dismay, anger.
âWhatâre you talking about? You are home. Youâre happy here. You have everything, youâIâve given you everything,â he says, though a voice in the back of his mind reminds him that isnât true.Â
He hasnât given everything. Not yet. Heâs been holding back. You both have, and now youâre both suffering.
Enough, he thinks. Hasn't he been deprived long enough?
Haven't you?
You try again to pull away, but this time he pulls you forward, pressing his lips to yours. You make a sound against his mouth that sounds like surprise, but all that matters now is the thrum of your skin against his.
âDoesnât have to be like this,â he says between kisses, following you as you pull backwards, his knee hitting the bed as he crawls over top of you. He lets his hands roam, learning you in the way heâs been aching to since the day he decided that you would be his, and that he would be yours.Â
âYou have no idea how fucking good I can make you feel.â
Pleasure has always been his greatest comfort. The ability to shut down his brain, to quiet the voices and focus solely on the physical. He needs it, and now more than ever, he can see that you need it, too.Â
He kisses your jaw, your cheek, kisses the wet streaks from your skin and licks the salt of them from his lips.
âI can make it go away,â he murmurs, undeterred by your hands pushing against his chest. You have a nasty habit of fighting whatâs good for you.Â
âIâll make you happy if youâd just let me.â
Your clothes put up less resistance than you do, the designer material tearing with ease. He swallows up your gasp with another kiss, slips his tongue into your mouth and grazes your teeth with it, daring you to bite.
Your pulse thunders in his ears, but not even the acridity of the fear coursing through you can hide the sweet heat of arousal seeping from between your thighs.
His own body aches in kind, cock throbbing needily behind his cup. His mind has already started to fog, the sting of rejection soothed by the need he can feel building in every part of your body.Â
You want him. You do. He can feel it in the drumming of every climbing throb he hears your body give.
âAll this teasing, this tension, it can all end. Weâre so close to what we both want now, what we both need.â His hand slips lower, forcing your legs apart enough to drag his middle finger over your cunt through the satiny fabric of your panties, savoring the way it makes you shudder.
âI donât want this,â you say, hardly sounding convinced of it yourself.
âYou can lie to yourself all you want, but you canât lie to me, â he says, taking his hand away only to bite the tip of his middle finger, tugging his glove off with his teeth and tossing it aside. He moves it right back to your pussy, pressing in firmly to finally feel the hot, soaked patch of fabric against his bare skin.Â
âLook whoâs all wet.â
âWhy are you doing this?â Thereâs a tremble running through your voice, through your body.
He huffs an incredulous little breath.
âIâm doing this for you. For us. Iâm doing this because you donât know how to let yourself be happy,â he says, drawing back to look at you. Youâre beautiful like this. Eyes glassy and vibrant, skin hot under his touch. âAll you have to do is let go, and Iâll make all the bad stuff go away.â
You donât respond, but he knows by the look of you that heâs struck a chord. He kisses you again, and this time, you donât try to turn away. Instead, both of your hands slip into his hair, and to his elation, you kiss him back.
He moans against your lips, shifting onto his side next to you so that he can better maneuver his hand, bringing his fingers up to slip them into your underwear, letting out a low sound for the feel of your velvety wet cunt under his bare fingers.
âKeep breathing,â he reminds you, acutely attuned to every inch of you, including when your breath catches. âThatâs it⊠Good girl.â
The last thing he needs now is for you to pass out.
He kisses a trail down from your shoulder to your chest, nipping at the swell of your breasts before he kisses an apology into the soft skin, only to suck a mark at that same spot. He spreads your own slick from your cunt to your clit, massaging it between his middle and index finger.
You suck in a ragged breath, you whimper, and in that sound he knows he finally has you hook, line and sinker.
Thatâs when you catch sight of yourself in the mirror above. You shudder, turning your head away as if ashamed, but he wonât let you hide from this.
âAh, ah, none of that. No shame in this. Itâs a tale as old as time, sweetheart,â he says, pressing his middle finger slowly into the silky clench of your pussy.Â
âBoy meets girl⊠Girl falls for boy⊠Boy fucks her brains out,â he half laughs, half rasps, hooking his leg over yours both to pull your legs wider apart, and to give himself your thigh to grind against.
He angles his thumb to rub your clit while his finger crooks, stroking inside you until he finds that delicate, puffy little bundle of nerves heâs been taught to look for. More than just by the feel of it, he knows heâs found it when your hips jerk suddenly, and you look at him as though heâs just invented the spot.
âI told you,â he rumbles, kissing you slow, wet, hungry, âthat I would make you feel good.â
He adds another finger, fucking you with them slowly, his pace building gradually. He imagines how itâll feel to have his cock where his fingers are, and he nearly comes in his pants at the thought alone, his hips jerking against you.
âLook at yourself,â he sighs, his other hand cupping the back of your neck. âLook at yourself,â he says again, harsher this time, and your eyes snap up to the mirror above you.
Youâre a mess, clothes torn apart and splayed under and around you, hickeys forming where heâs abused your skin with his lips. Youâre fucking yourself down on his hand entirely of your own accord now, one hand fisted in his hair, the other in the sheets. Your tears have dried and thereâs only sweet, mindless pleasure left in your eyes.
Heâs never known a pain he couldnât fuck away. He knew youâd be the same.
âSo fucking perfect for me,â he coos, breath hitching on his own mounting pleasure. Your pussy squeezes his fingers, the lewd cacophony of pleasure filling the room the closer you get to the brink.
âHomelander,â you keen, voice fractured and sweet as sugar.Â
He kisses his name from your lips, licks up the honied taste of it while he fucks you deeper, faster, his pace never once faltering, not even as you begin to thrash against him. He canât tell if youâre trying to get closer or further, but he holds you tightly in place, gritting his teeth against the pleasure while he shamelessly humps your leg.
Your shallow breaths take on a pitchy sound as you writhe, as if part of you is still fighting him, fighting your pleasure, but in the end, itâs a battle you lose. Your cunt locks up like a vice around his fingers, your orgasm throbbing inside and out, your clit fluttering against his thumb.
Youâre robbed of breath, of sound, and of sense as you come, capable of nothing more than a silent cry as pleasureâthe pleasure he gave youâwracks your body.
He fucks you through it, relishing the way your quivering cunt squeezes his fingers, greedily pulling him back in on every thrust. Itâs too muchâyouâre too muchâand he loses himself to it, giving a ragged gasp as he comes shortly after. His eyes roll back, pulse after pulse of sweet pleasure filling his cup with liquid heat.
âI love you,â he gasps, nearly choking on the words, rocking against your still-trembling form. âIâfffuck, I love you, I love you so much.â
Heâs languid but no less ravenous in the way he kisses your chest, your throat, your jaw, your mouth, all while his fingers rock lazily in and out of your cunt. Still coming down from his own high, he doesnât stop until youâre grabbing his wrist and pushing his hand away, pleading your overstimulation with nothing but soft noises.Â
He licks his fingers clean, intoxicated by the feel, taste and smell of you. A shiver runs through you, and itâs only then that he realizes he forgot to shut the balcony door behind him.
Too enraptured to move, to risk breaking the spell your bodies have cast over one another, he drapes his cape over your naked body, tucking you in against his chest.
Satisfied that heâs made his point, that you finally understand the gift heâs wanted to give you all along, he wraps both arms around you and nuzzles against the top of your head, pressing a kiss to the crown.
While ending your first tryst sticky and wet in his pants wasn't his ideal scenario, he'll take it. The weight of you in his arms, the taste of you on his lips, more than makes up for it.
âThatâs it,â he murmurs, the words slurring together slightly. He strokes your back, holding you close as the tremors subside. He gladly takes credit for the way your breaths even out, for the way you sink into his arms, the resistance wrung from your muscles.Â
All thatâs left now is bliss.Â
âThatâs my girl.â And you are, without a shadow of a doubt, his.

Can I get a wholesome little thingy of homie comforting his s/o that's like depressed what would he do? And give them snuggles? And although of course s/o giving homie headpats and caresses are top tier this time I want him to have to give headpats. Not because I'm depressed rn or anything (yes it is)
~1k | Homelander x gn!Reader | Established Relationship. Dealing with depression. Homelander's POV. Fluff. Just fluff really.
Something feels off when Homelander enters his penthouse. While he used to welcome the quiet of his home after he came back from events, this has recently changed. Ever since youâve become a part of his life, any second spent without you feels like somethingâs missing. So itâs definitely out of order to get the same empty feeling when he's home. Usually you greet him with open arms or at least a âWelcome homeâ shouted from another room.
âBabe?â Homelander calls out into the penthouse, the questioning tone reverberating through the open plan of his home. He knows youâre here. His question acts more as a reset, giving you a chance to play your role.
At your lack of response he quickly scans the room, seeing you in the bedroom. Very much awake but hidden under the sheets. So why wouldnât you react to his presence? Shouldnât that be something you look forward to?
You always do.
His mind runs at a hundred miles a minute. Even with the overwhelming positive effect youâve had on his life itâs easy to fall into insecurity and despair, worrying about the worst possible outcome.
Homelander stops himself from rushing into the bedroom. But the slow one step at a time sinks the weight in his gut lower and lower. The anxiety of something being wrong has thrown him off-kilter. He doesnât really know how to approach you when youâre distant like this.
So his over the top bravado will have to do.
âHeyyyy there sleepy head! You know itâs waaayyy too late for a lie in, don't you think?â He waltzes into the bedroom, hands on his hips, acting as if he was addressing a crowd. His voice is loud and clear, carrying a jovial tone that sounds a little too insincere even to his ears.Â
He doubles down anyway. âIf I knew you were planning to spend the entire day in bed I wouldâve never left.â But, you donât respond. He can hear your heartbeat, the slight rustle of the sheets and even the thud and glide of your finger scrolling down your phone screen.
When the silence gets too awkward for him to bear he peels the blanket from over your head, revealing you down to your waist. Immediately you squirm at the light coming from the outside after having your den of doom broken into.
Over the time that your love has blossomed into a relationship heâs gotten used to receiving comfort from you. You were there to listen to his countless rants and concerns. From the simple work related complaints to the horrors plaguing his nightmares.Â
He should be able to do the same for you, right?
âHmm⊠Iâm just resting.â You sound dejected, empty.Â
He swallows at the sound of you being so different. Youâre missing the light that usually fills out the dark space in him. Homelander doesnât know how to approach you. Whenâs the last time heâs had to comfort anyone? Truly comfort someone. Has anyone ever asked or even trusted him to be there for them?
Whether youâve asked or not, he needs to be there for you.
Itâs the least you deserve.
âYeah right.â
He unzips his boots, setting them neatly next to each other before sliding under the sheets right behind you. He hooks his arm over you, pulling your back into his chest. And although youâre not reciprocal to his affection like you usually would be, the warmth he feels is enough to ease the anxiety in his gut.
He wedges his head in between your head and shoulder, watching with you as you mindlessly scroll through social media.
âHow long have you been doom scrolling now?â He clicks his tongue, shaking his head lightly against your shoulder.
 âI donât know. A while I guess.â While you squirm in his hold your tone is still just as impenetrable.
âYouâre not even looking at the screen!â When you donât even react he frowns. âAlright, thatâs enough of that.â He plucks your phone from your hands, turning and placing it on the bedside table away from you. He acts as a barrier between it and you, giving you no chance of getting it back. He rolls over back to you, greeted with the sight of you facing him.
Instantly he pulls you into him, both arms tightly around you with heavy comfort. Itâs what he wouldâve wanted in times of despair. Itâs what you do when he seeks comfort. The whole body embrace where all he can focus on is you. It always grounds him.
He hopes it has a similar effect on you.
âWhatâs wrong?â He says. This time in a soft, low voice. No longer trying to put on a show. Heâs meant to be there for you, not for a crowd.
âI donât really know how to talk about it⊠Or if I even want toâŠâ While you donât sound like yourself, part of him is glad to hear your sadness. Itâs better than the dejected empty voice. The closer you are to revealing your true sorrows the closer he is to getting you to feel better.
âOkay. You can⊠I donât know, at least try to tell me something about whatâs going on. Orrr, I will be reciting all of the amendments to the Constitution of the United States.â Heâs gambling with the teasing tone of his voice but it pays off when you groan and giggle.
âOh god no, not again!âÂ
âWelp, itâs your choice.â By now he canât stop the smile from spreading across his lips. He gives you a soft squeeze.
âAlright, I can try.â You concede with a calm defeat.
âGood. Thatâs a start.â He kisses the top of your head, still holding and caressing you.
But most importantly, actually listening to you.
