The Best Gift for Last//Sam Rothstein x Reader

A/N: A chessy and fluffy Sam fic for the last night of Hanukkah tomorrow! Happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate. 

It was the last night of Hanukkah and Sam could tell there was something off with you. It was your first time celebrating Hanukkah, having not been raised Jewish yourself, but you had been excited to have Sam share this part of his culture with you. Sam himself actually hadn’t celebrated the holiday since he was a kid and still celebrating with his grandparents but to him getting to celebrate holidays with you and one day your children together was something he dreamed about and looked forward to. Tonight however, you seemed preoccupied, not paying attention to what Sam was telling you and barely touching any of your food. 

Sam sighed and leaned back into the couch, “Are you going to tell me what’s wrong?”

“What?” You asked, blinking as you came back to reality. 

Sam shook his head, grabbing your hand and squeezing it lightly. “Come on, I know something is up with you. Are you going to tell me so I can fix it?” His smile faltered, “Did you, did you not like celebrating with me?”

“What? Oh, God no, Sam.” You shook your head, sinking back into the couch and letting your head fall on Sam’s shoulder. 

You played with his fingers, taking a deep breath. 

“Then what is it?” Sam asked gently, kissing the top of your head. 

You stayed silent for a second before sitting up straight and facing Sam with a nervous smile. 

“Let’s not worry about that right now okay? I think you still need to open your last gift.” You said, quickly standing up and going to fetch the small rectangular box you’d wrapped with a pink bow, Sam’s favorite color. 

You moved quickly, almost tripping over your own feet as you went for the gift and back to the couch quickly. Sam watched you closely like you were one of the players in his Casino who he was trying to figure out how they were cheating. He could tell you were keeping something from him but he didn’t know what. Sam decided not to push things too far right now though, smiling at you softly as you sat down. 

He chuckled, “You know you didn’t have to get me anything.”

You rolled your eyes, shaking your head. “I wanted to, Sam.” You said, a nervous grin forming on your face. “Besides, this is something you’ve been wanting for a while.” 

Sam raised a brow at you, looking down at the small, carefully wrapped box in your hands. He wasn’t sure what on Earth you could have come up with for him but he couldn’t remember saying he wanted anything lately that could have fit in that box. He took the box from you carefully, surprised by how light it was. ‘Too light to even be a watch’ he thought to himself, shaking it slightly like a kid as he looked at you, expecting to see you laugh but the nervous smile hadn’t left your face. His smile dropped slightly seeing how serious you looked. He leaned in and took your chin between his fingers, kissing you gently. 

“I love it.” He whispered against your lips.

“You haven’t even opened it yet.” You laughed.

 “I don’t have to.” He smirked, “It’s from you.” 

“Sam, open the box.” You bit your lip. 

He sat up straight and pulled away from you slightly, looking down at the little box in his large hands and pulling gently at the pink ribbon on top until it gave away. Glancing at you out of the corner of his eye, he pulled the top off. The thin white piece of plastic inside stared up at him, making his eyes narrow in confusion. You watched with butterflies in your stomach as Sam pulled the pregnancy test out of the box, turning it over and catching sight of the little pink plus sign staring back up at him. He paused, his entire body frozen as his eyes widened and you could practically see his mind going a mile a minute behind those blue eyes of his that you loved so much. 

“Sam?” You asked hesitantly, “Please say something.” 

Sam didn’t say anything, still looking at the test. He turned his head and looked at you. You were taken back by the glossy tears in his eyes. 

“Sam?” You reached out and gently grabbed his shoulders and just like that he had dropped the test into the box and had you wrapped in his arms, pulling you tight against him. You laughed, squeezing him back. “You’re happy?” You asked, fighting back your own tears at Sam’s reaction. You hadn’t been married very long but you knew how badly Sam had wanted a family. 

“Baby,” Sam pulled back, pushing your hair out of your face, “Tell me you’re serious.” He demanded, “I need you to tell me you’re serious.” He said, looking you in the eyes, the smile never leaving his face. You smiled at him, nodding, 

“We’re going to have a baby, Sam.” You said choking back tears. 

Sam shook his head, pulling you towards him and kissing you passionately. “We’re going to have a baby.” He whispered against your lips with a grin. 

It looked like next years Hanukkah would be a very different one.

Christmas Cookies//Sam Rothstein x Reader

A/N: Just a short, fluffy holiday drabble about Sam Rothstein. The reader and Sam are in an interfaith marriage in this and have a baby. 

“They’re singing “Deck the Halls,” but it’s not like Christmas at all!” You sang loudly as you spun around the kitchen, using your rolling pin as a microphone as you sang along to Darlene Love. Your baby girl sat in her high chair laughing and giggling at your silly dancing, making you smile. You picked up one of her toys and handed it to her before going back to rolling out cookie dough. With Hanukkah over now you were finally allowing yourself to really get into the Christmas spirit, made even more exciting by the fact that it was your and Sam’s first time spending the holidays together and your daughters first Hanukkah and Christmas. So today you decided to start working on one of your favorite Christmas traditions, baking cookies. You figured it would be nice to get y/d/n dressed up and go visit Sam at the Casino and bring him some cookies and hot coffee. Sometimes you were sure that man would never take a break unless he was forced so that was exactly your plan for today. 

“Cause I remember when you were here! And all the fun we had last year.” You sang along, reaching for the cookie cutters when a pair of arms wrapped around your waist suddenly, making you jump. You whirled around coming face to face with Sam. He was biting his lip trying not to laugh at you but he couldn’t help but chuckle. 

“That’s some welcome home, Mrs. Rothstein.” 

You rolled your eyes, “You scared me.” You reached up and kissed him sweetly on the lips. “Welcome home.” 

“Hmm, I wasn’t expecting to come home to a show.” You blushed, pushing his shoulder gently, “I didn’t know I had an extra audience member.” 

Sam laughed at this, turning around and going over to your daughter, picking her up out of her high chair. “Hi, baby girl.” He kissed her head, “What are my girls doing today?” 

You looked down at your apron covered in flour and other baking ingredients and laughed, “Well we were going to surprise you and bring you some cookies but it looks like you surprised us instead.” 

Sam looked at you, his grin softening a little. He loved that you wanted to surprise him and that you did things like baking cookies for him and your family. The domesticity of it made him melt. He placed the baby back down in her high chair, kissing her again softly before turning back to you and rolling up his sleeves. 

“Can I help?” He asked, pressing you up against the counter. 

“Hmm, think you can cut out some cookies Mr. Rothstein?” You teased, wrapping your arms around him. 

“I think I can give it a shot.” He chuckled, kissing your neck.

Spending Christmas with Travis Bickle in NYC Would Include...

A/N: Requested by anonymous.

Travis can’t remember the last time he actually celebrated Christmas. 

He used to celebrate with his parents when he was a kid but ever since he grew up he didn’t think he’d celebrated. 

Honestly, Travis sees Christmas as being too consumeristic and hates seeing how everyone was rushing around and focusing on their greed. At least that’s how Travis saw things. 

When you asked Travis if he wanted to spend Christmas with you he would immediately jump at the opportunity to spend time with you and is thrilled that you want to spend holidays with him. 

Even if he isn’t the biggest fan of those holidays usually. 

Neither of you have much money for the holidays but you both are just happy to be together. 

He even takes off for Christmas to get to spend the whole day with you, a rare treat. 

You try to show Travis the city actually can be beautiful in the winter. 

The two of you put on your coats and go for a walk around the city, enjoying the Christmas displays and lights around. 

You entwine your arm with Travis’ or hold hands as you walk together, keeping close and helping each other stay warm which makes Travis grin happily. 

As long as Travis has lived in New York City he’s never been ice skating so you suggest going to Rockefeller Center together. 

He’s apprehensive to say the least but also doesn’t want to say no when you ask him so hopefully. 

He holds your hands tight the entire time, turning his knuckles white as he tries to keep from falling. 

After a while he’s finally able to straighten up and loosen his grip a little as he gets the hang of it. 

Afterwards the two of you get hot chocolate to warm yourselves up and head home. 

He loves getting to cuddle with you at home after being out in the cold all day. 

Even on days when he has to work he’ll come home and pull off his outer clothes before curling up into bed with you to warm up. 

When you go to make Christmas dinner for the two of you Travis would insist on helping you. 

He doesn’t know much of anything about cooking but if you just tell him what to do he’ll try his best to follow your directions. 

He wants to feel like he’s contributing and make sure you’re glad you invited him over even though you tell him he doesn’t have to do anything to deserve to be there, you love him and are just glad to be with him.

After spending the holidays with you I think Travis might look a little more kindly on the winter season because to him it becomes associated with you and the warm memories you made together.

Celebrating Your First Christmas with Sam Rothstein Would Include...

A/N: In this fic Sam and the reader are in an interfaith relationship. Sam is Jewish and celebrates Hanukkah with the reader but would help the reader celebrate Christmas. 

Requested by @overratedrqmanccer​

Sam would do anything he could to make you happy. To him it doesn’t matter what it takes, how long it takes, or how much it costs, he just wants to make you as happy as you make him. 

So if he saw you looking longingly at a Christmas tree or sadly watching a Christmas movie and told him that you’d never celebrated Christmas but that you always wanted to he would immediately know that needed to change. 

Having been raised Jewish, Sam had never celebrated Christmas either but you always celebrated Hanukkah with him and tried to be involved in his celebrations and traditions so he felt it was only right he do the same thing for you. 

And Sam is nothing if not flashy so when he decides to have the house decorated for Christmas he went all out.

He kept it a surprise too, sending you out shopping for the afternoon or to visit a friend, so when you came home and opened the front door your jaw dropped. 

The house looked like something out of a scene in a movie. 

Sam had thought of everything. There were stockings, garlands, holly, the works. 

And of course the biggest, grandest Christmas tree you’d ever seen.

It took your breath away. You stood there taking it all in when Sam came up behind you and wrapped his arms around your waist. “You like it, baby?” 

You covered his hands with yours and turned around to kiss him passionately, tears in your eyes. “Oh, Sam, I love it.” You sighed. 

It was the sweetest thing anyone had ever done for you and it warmed your heart. 

The two of you did everything you could think of to celebrate Christmas, something neither of you had done before, and make up for lost time in your case. 

You made Christmas cookies, watched It’s a Wonderful Life, listening to Christmas music. You even convinced Sam to take you to an ice rink one day. 

You had to promise you would never tell Nicky or anyone how many times Sam fell but the two of you were laughing and having fun and that’s what mattered. 

On Christmas Eve you throw a big Christmas party for your first real Christmas Eve. Billy, Nicky, and their wives come along with many other people Sam knows from his work and your own friends and family too of course. 

Sam insists you hire people to help with the party so you can really relax and enjoy yourself which you greatly appreciated. 

You get to wear a new Christmas dress and celebrate long into the night with Sam and your friends, surrounded by delicious food and beautiful Christmas decorations, and you could honestly say it was something you’d never forget. 

Especially when Sam caught you under the mistletoe later that night, kissing you deeply while Nicky and some of the other guests whistled at you both. 

Christmas morning is a much more relaxed and casual day. 

You and Sam sleep in before waking up and having breakfast together. Honestly, he probably would have suggested having a chef to make breakfast but you insist the two of you could make breakfast together instead. 

The two of you make breakfast and coffee together then stay in your pajamas all day, opening gifts together. 

Sam gets you the most sparkling jewelry of course while absolutely fawning over whatever you get him because it’s from you so it means the world to him. 

He also would probably get you a robe to match his for Christmas too so you could both wear them together. It would be absolutely adorable. 

The rest of the day is spent watching Christmas movies together, cuddling on the couch, and occasionally taking a break to make out. 

Later that night after dinner Sam would whisper in your ear, “Did you enjoy your first Christmas, princess?” 

When you grinned at him and told him that “It was the best day of your life,” it would make it all worth it for him. 

It would definitely not be the last time you celebrated Christmas with Sam by your side.

Going to a Christmas Party with Jimmy Conway Would Include...

Every year Paulie has a Christmas party for all the guys and this year Jimmy couldn’t wait to take you as his date. 

He’s proud to walk in with who he thinks is the prettiest girl in the room on his arm. 

Jimmy would absolutely tell you to open one of your gifts early and it would be something gorgeous to wear and show off at the party. 

You both get drinks when you get there before he leaves you to talk to the other wives while he talks to the guys. 

Karen and Tommy’s girlfriend of the week are good company, gossiping and sipping your drinks until Jimmy comes back to join you. 

He wraps his arms around you from behind and kisses your cheek, jokingly asking if you’ve been good this year. 

A couple of drinks later the two of you are enjoying the Christmas music and listening to one of Tommy’s loud, joking stories. 

At some point Jimmy surprises you by  pulling you under the mistletoe, getting a couple of wolf whistles from Tommy and Henry. 

At the end of the night the two of you go home and curl up on the couch in your pajamas. 

You rest your head on Jimmy’s shoulder while the two of you watch Christmas movies and eat a few Christmas cookies together. 

The two of you fall asleep like that, only the Christmas tree lights on, ready to spend Christmas morning together the next day.

[imaginationnation]

Spending Christmas with Jimmy Conway Would Include…

Jimmy loves Christmas! As much of a dangerous tough guy that Jimmy is, he really is just like a big kid at Christmas. 

And having you to celebrate with only makes it even more fun and exciting for Jimmy. 

He doesn’t really have any holiday traditions of his own so he loves making them with you. 

You two do everything from hanging Christmas lights to making cookies. 

Which is really just you baking while Jimmy sits in the kitchen keeping you company. 

That man could burn ice after all.

Just don’t let anyone know he was helping you make cookies, he has a reputation to protect after all ;D

Being the 60s you’d probably get a nice aluminum tree since they’re so popular. 

If you did want a real tree though Jimmy would gladly take you to go pick one out at a tree lot and would be very particular about picking out the perfect tree with no bald spots. 

He’d let you put most of the ornaments up but he’d insist on putting the star/angel on top. 

There’s a very good chance that after a few glasses of champagne to celebrate the holidays the two of you would get a little frisky under the tree. 

He’d take you with him to Paulie’s Christmas party at the bar and be so proud to have you on his arm. 

Getting caught under the mistletoe together. The first time was by accident but you couldn’t say the same about the other three times that night. 

The two of you would end up having spiked hot chocolate with Henry and Karen one night as a double date. 

You get to know Tommy’s mother pretty well while dating Jimmy so she asks you to come over and help her put out her Christmas decorations. 

Jimmy thinks it’s the sweetest thing that you go to help her. 

If you have family that you like to spend the holidays with Jimmy would gladly accompany you. 

He charms your mom pretty easily and spends time playing with your nieces/nephews/little cousins playing with their new toys with them on the floor. 

The two of you would go home to wake up at your house together on Christmas morning. 

You wake up to him kissing your neck and face, whispering “Merry Christmas, baby.” 

When the two of you get up you make breakfast for the two of you while Jimmy fixes coffee, then comes up behind you and wraps his arms around your waist, just standing there while you finish the eggs. 

You open gifts you got for each other and Jimmy loves whatever you get him while he surprises you with new jewelry, a ring with your birthstone in it. 

The two of you spend the rest of the day together, relaxing on the couch in your pajamas, his blue terry cloth robe soft against your skin, as you watch some of your favorite Christmas movies together and drink hot chocolate.

Celebrating Christmas with Max Cady Would Include...

The summer may be Max Cady’s favorite time of the year but he also absolutely loves Christmas. 

He can’t wait to celebrate your first Christmas together too as a couple, making new traditions together. 

Max is already a rather flashy person and he loves the parts of Christmas that some other people might find tacky. 

He would absolutely wear a truly awful Christmas sweater with an atrocious pattern and somehow still make it look amazing. 

He’d love how cute you look in little cozy sweater dresses and tights! He’d be licking his lips and running his hands up and down your thighs, loving how the thin material of your tights against your legs felt. 

He couldn’t resist but to pat his knee and ask you if you’d want to come sit on Santa’s lap and ask if you’d been a good girl this year. 

Late at night the two of you would go on drives together in his red caddy, with the top up and the heater blaring of course, to see people’s Christmas lights hung up. 

You really wouldn’t even need the heat turned up though when you’re sitting tucked into Max’s side with his arm around you. 

When it really starts to get cold out Max will be insistent on making sure you’re layered up so his baby doesn’t get cold.

If you do forget your layers or still get cold he’ll take your hands in his much larger ones and blow on them to warm them with his breath or pull you into his chest, wrapping his arms around you to keep you warm, and kissing your forehead. 

The man is basically like your own personal heater. Cuddling up with him at night you’d never have to worry about getting cold. 

And if you did get cold Max would always have some very creative ways to warm his girl up ;) 

Max loves a good parade too so there’s no way he’s not taking you to the local Christmas parade to see the floats. 

There’s something about the crowds and the energy that Max just loves. And being there with his girl under his arm and hot chocolates just makes it even better. 

When it comes to putting up your own decorations Max would love to go all out with it. 

When you’re not looking he hangs mistletoe up and dips you into a passionate kiss. When he pulls back, smirking at your surprised, wide eyed expression he just points up at the mistletoe above your heads and walks away. 

As far as the tree is concerned Max would never settle for anything other than a real Christmas tree. 

He’d probably want to cut it down himself too, taking you out to look for one with an axe thrown over his shoulder and his gloved hand holding yours.

He lets you lead him around for as long as you like until you pick out whichever tree you want and then tells you to stand back while he chops it down easily, showing off his big muscles. ;D

Max has quite the sweet tooth and when it’s too cold out to indulge in ice cream he switches over to Christmas treats. 

This man thought he couldn’t love you anymore than he already did until you made his Christmas cookies. 

He’d come up behind you while you’re baking and wrap his arms around your waist, pulling you back against his chest and kissing your neck while you’re trying to focus. 

Being the religious person that Max is, he’d find a lot of importance in the religious aspects of Christmas and would love it if you came to church with him on Christmas. 

Of course he’d never make you if you didn’t want to go with him but he’d be super excited if you did and love sharing that part of himself with you. 

If you wanted to spend the holidays with your family Max would gladly accompany you without question. As long as he’s with you he doesn’t care where the two of you spend Christmas. 

He’d lay on the Max Cady charm as much as he could to try and win over your family. Your family may not be crazy about the age difference when you bring Max home but they’d have to be blind not to see how crazy about you Max is. 

If you don’t want to spend the holidays with your family for any reason Max would be fine with that too! He’d love getting to spend Christmas alone with his girl and getting you all for himself. 

The two of you would make a big breakfast together and spend most of the day on the couch/in bed together watching your favorite Christmas movies and making out during the boring parts. 

There’s a very good chance that he’d get a tattoo to represent you for your Christmas gift and surprise you with it later that night.

Being in a Relationship with Max Cady Would Include...

A/N: I hope you guys like these! I love Max and he’s one of my favorite characters but he’s incredibly intimidating to write for me so I really hope you guys like this. 

Trigger Warnings: Some NSFWish stuff below and some mentions of typical Max Cady behavior. 

He has a daddy kink. This should probably go without saying at this point but Max has the biggest daddy kink. 

Anytime you call him daddy it would drive him crazy and end up with you getting his attention/getting your way. 

One of the things Max is most proud of is having taught himself to read and he likes to read a lot after having gone so long without being able to. 

Newspapers, magazines you leave laying around, the books you keep by your bed, even signs by the road, it doesn’t matter what it is, Max will read it. 

He loves reading out loud to you. It doesn’t really matter what he’s reading, its just nice to listen to him talk in that southern drawl of his. 

He especially loves reading dirty books to you just to watch you blush and squirm next to him. 

The two of you take a lot of road trips together in his cherry red convertible. 

To Max it’s the best thing in the world to drive along some country roads with his arm around you, his girl, the radio playing, and taking in the sights and the breeze. 

Even if you’re not going on road trips you’re always going on long drives together, especially at night when things cool down a little. 

Max usually has the radio tuned to either opera music or old country music. 

Max Cady would love some Johnny Cash music!

Despite all this, Max almost certainly never tells you about being in prison. At least not at first. He doesn’t really talk about his past all that much telling you “I’m more interested in what’s in front of me darlin’.” 

He might tell you eventually that he was in jail for something he didn’t do or some crime much more minor than what he was actually convicted of. He figures what you don’t know won’t hurt you. 

Max likes to think of himself as a southern gentleman in his own mind and tries to act like one around you.

He opens doors for you, pays for dates, and my oh my, he would be such a sweet talker with his southern phrases and drawl. 

He calls you by pet names more than he even calls you by your name. 

Angel, princess, babydoll, etc. 

Dates with Max would include things like going for ice cream, trips to diners, playing pool in some dive bar, or going to the drive-in movies together in his convertible.

He loves when you wear dresses and get all dolled up for him too. He especially has a thing for seeing you in cute little babydoll dresses and sundresses. “My, my, now you sure do look as pretty as a picture. Yes, you do. You get all dressed up just for little ole’ me?” He’d ask and grab your waist, rubbing his thumb over your hip. 

Max gives the best bear hugs! He’d wrap those huge arms of his around you completely and pick you up and spin you around like you were a rag doll before putting you down. 

Max will take any opportunity to touch you! After fourteen years in prison, he’s extremely touch starved which has made him handsy as hell with you. 

Sometimes you can even hear him let out a soft little sign when he feels your soft skin against his. 

He’s got to have his arm around your shoulders when he’s driving, his hand on your ass when he kisses you, your hand in his when you’re walking together. And he is always going to be pulling you into his lap, even if there’s a perfectly good chair right there, he’s going to be patting his knee for you to sit there. 

He’d love it when you sit in his lap at the end of the day while he smokes a cigar and you have a drink and the two of you can relax together. 

You’d better get use to the smell of cigar smoke. 

Max can be pretty rough with you sometimes, even though he’s really not trying to hurt you. The man is just superhumanly strong though and sometimes forgets his own strength in the heat of the moment.

You almost always have some sort of bruise on you from him gripping you too tight in bed. 

Afterwards though he’d rub those bruises gently with his fingers and kiss the marks he left on your skin. 

Cuddling with Max would be amazing. His big arms wrapped around you holding you tight to his strong chest. 

And he would love it when you trace your fingers over his tattoos too, feeling how his skin raises up slightly to form the words and pictures decorating his skin. It could almost make him shiver. 

He’ll probably even wind up getting a tattoo to represent you one day. 

And oh man if you were to wear one of his Hawaiian shirts? He would go crazy over the sight! 

It would be very rare for the two of you to ever be apart for more than a few hours. Max even has a habit of showing up wherever you are to “check on you.” Even if you didn’t tell him where you were going to be. 

He is extremely protective and possessive over you! Max would be on edge if anyone even looked at you wrong and would be ready to take care of anybody who tried to make you uncomfortable or hurt you. 

But considering how intimidating Max looks and how the two of you are almost together I don’t think many people are going to try to mess with you. 

Max always has to be the one in charge in your relationship. He likes feeling like you need him/rely on him and that he’s protecting you/taking care of you. 

Fights with Max would never be a thing. He’s too manipulative for that. Any fights that start between you Max will end pretty quickly. 

He can definitely be a pretty flashy guy which can sometimes be a little embarrassing in public but hey, that’s just Max for you.

HCs: Ice Cream Truck Driver Max Cady!AU

A/N: Happy day 1 of Max Cady week, starting off summer the only way I think we know how - with our scary, scary fave man. I’m gonna be giving you a week of Max Cady summer themed content, so I sure hope you’re ready for the nonsense about to ensue! Warning: while this is not outright smut, it is still extremely sexual, so 18+ ONLY 

• To be honest, it’s kinda a miracle he can even have this job because of his criminal past, but who’s looking at that stuff anyways? I’m sure Max knows some people to clean up his record for him, it’s not that big of a deal. Whatever keeps him out of the slammer I guess, he’ll be a productive working member of society. 

• Max isn’t one for children. Like, at all. So the idea of him being a harbinger of summer fun to children all over the county he resides in as a truck driver almost seems preposterous at first. The screaming kids, the brats, the whiners. He absolutely despises it. 

• But, there is something that keeps him coming back summer after summer. It’s one of the easiest ways to flirt with all the pretty (legal age) girls and their beautiful mothers. That’s what he truly looks forward to.

Being a Waitress at Travis Bickle’s Favorite Diner Would Include...

A/N: The reader in this is a college student as well. 

You met Travis when you were working the night shift at the diner. 

It wasn’t a great job, the hours were long and the tips weren’t great but it was a job and it let you attend classes during the day so you stuck with it.

Travis was one of your regular customers. 

Travis usually came in late at night when he was driving his cab or walking around the city because he couldn’t sleep. 

A few of the friends he did have also came in late at night/early in the morning and they would sit together in the almost empty diner drinking coffee together. 

The first time Travis saw you he swears it was love at first sight. 

It was really more like obsession at first sight but to Travis it’s kind of the same thing. 

You could feel him staring at you as you poured him his coffee and offered him a tired smile as you left the table. 

That was it for Travis.

There was something about the tired circles under your eyes, the way you were always reading when you weren’t serving, and your dry humor when you joked with the customers that made Travis want to know you more. 

He starts coming to the diner almost every night to see you. 

He’ll ask you about what you’re reading and why a girl like you is working in a place like this so late at night. 

When he finds out you’re a student he asks you about your classes all the time and brushes up on what you’re studying so he can have something to talk to you about. 

You notice Travis doesn’t talk about himself much, always deflecting personal questions like he doesn’t know how to answer them. 

You can also feel him staring at you while you work sometimes. 

Other times he brings his journal with him and writes in that while he hangs out. 

If another customer is giving you a hard time Travis will try to insert himself into the situation and get the other customer to lay off you. 

Travis has a mental image of you being much more innocent than you actually are which makes him want to protect that innocence he associates you with. 

One night when you’re closing up the diner you come outside to find Travis waiting in his cab, offering you a ride home. 

You knew him enough to think he probably wasn’t going to murder you so you took the ride home. 

He drives you home and drops you off at your building, even getting out to open your door for you. 

That’s when he asks you to go out with him for coffee and pie. 

You know that there’s something a little off about Travis but you can also see that he’s a pretty harmless guy. 

He follows you around like a puppy sometimes, like you’re the sun and he’s desperate to get warm. 

It’s overwhelming sometimes but wonderful at the same time. 

The two of you both working night shifts can be really convenient because you’re on the same schedule a lot of the time. 

Which means the two of you get to sleep in together during the day when you don’t have class.

That’s one of Travis’ favorite things is to get to stay in bed with you early in the morning with just you and him and not having to think about or deal with the city that bothers him so much. 

Travis will still usually be one of your regulars, swinging by to see you on his breaks or to offer you a ride home late at night.

You would have lots of late night talks where he vents to you about the city and the filth in it.

Travis Bickle Dating an Artist Would Include...

Travis notices you for the first time when he sees you with your nose down in your sketchbook. 

He watches you work from afar, admiring the peaceful concentration on your face as you work. 

Once you get together he loves watching you work. 

If you’re comfortable with it, he will sit and watch you draw or paint or work in whatever your preferred medium is for as long as you let him. 

He thinks it’s amazing that you can create something out of nothing. 

If you were to ever try to draw/pain Travis he would probably die of happiness.

He’d get the biggest grin on his face, a rare sight with Travis, and be turning several shades of red. 

He probably hangs some of your paintings/drawings up in his apartment. 

He says that they help brighten things up but what he really means is they help him feel a little less alone having something you made for him there to remind him of you. 

He definitely keeps one of your drawings in his wallet or in the cab with him too. 

He shows it off whenever he gets a chance too, liking to brag about his incredibly talented girlfriend. 

Travis would be supportive almost to a fault. 

If you said you didn’t like something you made or didn’t think it turned out right, Travis would be there telling you that it was perfect and that he loves it even if you were adamant that it wasn’t very good. 

He’s not great at giving you space when you need it to work and is a little insulted when you ask for it sometimes. 

But when he gets used to the idea that you just need some privacy to work and concentrate he’ll get a little better about it. 

But all in all he would be your biggest supporter and admire you so much.

Jimmy Conway Having a Plus Sized S/O Would Include...

A/N: A companion to my Sam Rothstein x Plus Size!Reader headcanons. These headcanons could also apply to midsized body types as well though.  

Jimmy thinks you’re the hottest thing he has ever seen. 

He can never seem to take his hands off of you. 

He is seemingly always sliding his hand up your thigh, grabbing your hips, or pulling you into his lap. 

Jimmy Conway’s love language is touch and you can’t change my mind on that. 

He loves the way you look and wouldn’t want to change a thing. 

And when you’re feeling confident or sexy he would eat that up and it just turns him on when you’re feeling feisty. 

But on days when you’re not feeling so hot Jimmy will quite frankly think that’s ridiculous and tell you so. 

He’s not trying to be mean or blunt but he thinks you’re gorgeous and that anyone (including you) who doesn’t see that is an idiot. 

He does try to cheer you up though and remind you how gorgeous you are. 

This would probably involve him running his hands up and down your sides in front of a mirror and telling you about all the parts of your body he loves. 

This of course leads to other more NSFW things but that could be its own story. ;D

Speaking of NSFW…

Jimmy would probably take you shopping sometime and when you come out in a new dress that flatters your curves just right Jimmy would end up dragging you back into the dressing room and locking the door. 

And if anyone else has something to say about the way you look, well, Jimmy’s got something to say to them for sure. 

It wouldn’t be pretty, I’ll just say that. 

I feel like Jimmy might even make Tommy and Henry compliment you if he thought you needed it or if he thought you didn’t believe him. 

Nothing crazy, but he’d be telling them to say something nice to you when you come in.
