You probably get asked this a lot, but how do you draw hands? Even when I'm tracing, they look so weird đ
I could probably go on and on and on about hands, but here are some key points I compiled! I LOVE drawing hands, and I never hesitate to use my own as a reference

Genre: Fluff
Summary: â It's your birthday, REDACTED wants to do something for you, (This is a gift for Render!!!) Thank you for being nice towards me since day 1! It means a lot to me!
Please everyone wish happy birthday to Render,
( Reader is a g.n!)
Content Warning : Nsfw jokes so </3
Did not proof read/Rushed.



It was 12:08 AM when you heard it.
The distinct, unmistakable clatter of something metallic hitting the kitchen tile. Followed by a very soft, very specific curse:
ââŠmotherfâfuckinâ hell, that was glassââ
You sat up instantly, blinking into the dark. You werenât exactly afraid of the dark. Not really. Just⊠mildly unnerved by the whole unknown-space-no-lights-possible-ghosts vibe.
But more concerning: the cold, empty space next to you in bed.
Your arm reached out instinctively, brushing over rumpled sheets. â...Redacted?â
No answer.
You frowned, grabbed the small heart-shaped pillow you kept by your sideâfor comfort, obviouslyâand tiptoed your way into the hallway. The floor was cold under your feet, and the glow from the kitchen spilled into the dark like some mischievous spirit.
You crept closer, pillow clutched like a weapon.
"Don't be a demon," you whispered under your breath. "Don't be a burglar. Don't be aâ"
You turned the corner.
And froze.
There, in the middle of the kitchen, stood Redacted.
Shirtless. Hair messy. Coveredâand coveredâin streaks of dark, glossy chocolate glaze. Their tongue poked out the corner of their mouth as they tried, with one spoon and absolutely zero grace, to scoop what remained of a shattered dessert into a bowl.
They paused mid-scoop when they noticed you.
"...Shit," he muttered.
You blinked. "Are you okay?? What are youâ?"
"I was bein' quiet." They frowned like you were the problem. "Yâwerenât supposed to hear that."
"I heard you drop a glass bowl."
"...It was ceramic. But yeah."
You snorted.
They stared at you, shirtless and sticky, chocolate streaked across their tattooed arms and torso like they had lost a very dramatic battle with a pastry. Even had a glossy smear on the curve of their collarbone, glinting in the overhead light.
You tried not to laugh. Failed. A giggle slipped out.
"Oh my god," you whispered. "You look like you got into a fight with a donut."
They deadpanned, a chocolate-smeared brow lifting. "Yâthink this is funny?"
"Very much so."
That earned a low, boyish huff from themâthe kind that was all fondness, no real heat. The kind that always made your chest ache a little because it was so them.
Still, his eyes didnât leave yours.
They gleamed. Intense. Obsessive. That fierce, unmistakable affection he never quite hid when he wasnât playing pretend as Ren.
You took a tiny step closer. "You okay?"
"I didnât mean to wake you."
"You didnât. The chaos did." You hugged your pillow tighter. "...If you needed something sweet, you couldâve, I dunno, ordered cake? Or woken me up?"
They smiledâslow, a little giddy. "I was planninâ to."
"Waking me up?"
He stepped closer. "Eventually."
You tilted your head. "Then why are you already covered inâ?"
"Câmere."
You blinked. "What?"
"Come closer."
"...Why?"
They grinned. "Iâm not gonna bite you."
"That's a lie."
They laughedâlow, dark, devastatingâthen crooked a finger at you. "Angel."
You sighed but stepped forward anyway. He met you halfway, plucking the pillow from your hands and tossing it to the counter with casual ease.
Before you could even ask another question, they kissed you.
It was soft at first. Slow. Sweet.
Then it deepenedâsticky and warm, tasting of chocolate and midnight, the kind of kiss that made your toes curl and your head spin. Their hands slid up your back, tugging you closer, their mouth smiling against yours like they'd been waiting all night just for this.
When they finally pulled back, you were flushed, breathless, and very confused.
"...What was that for?" you whispered.
He brushed his thumb along your cheek.
"Happy Birthday, Angel."
You blinked.
"...Huh?"
Their grin widened, boyish and smug. "You forgot."
You just stared at them, dumbfounded.
They leaned in, voice a soft, sinful whisper against your ear. "Itâs midnight, sweetheart. That means itâs officially your birthday."
Your jaw dropped. "Iâoh my god."
"Yeah." They kissed your cheek, the corner of your mouth, the tip of your nose. "Was gonna surprise you with chocolate cake in bed. But, uh... gravity disagreed."
You laughed, burying your face in their sticky, chocolate-smeared chest. "You idiot."
Their arms wrapped around you, pulling you tight against them. "Guilty."
You sighed into their warmth, peeking up at their face. "So this whole mess was for me?"
"All of it." They cradled your jaw in one big, sticky hand and kissed you again, soft and slow. "Yâdonât even know the rest. Thereâs balloons in the closet. A playlist. I was gonna wear the ribbon."
You choked. "What ribbon?"
He smirked. "You'll see."
You shook your head, giggling. Unhinged. Completely unhinged. And so sweet it made your heart hurt.
"You couldâve just woken me up, you know."
He nuzzled your temple, murmuring against your skin, "Didnât wanna ruin the surprise. Besides..."
He kissed the chocolate from the corner of your mouth, voice low and rough, almost a growl:
"...Wanted to see that look on your face when you realized."
You melted.
"Youâre such a sap."
"Iâm obsessed," he corrected, without shame. "Hopelessly. Helplessly."
You smiled, threading your fingers through their messy hair.
"Happy birthday to me," you whispered.
They hummed, pressing another kiss to your lips like they couldnât stand to be away from you for more than a second. "Yâbetter make a wish."
You kissed them back, slow and sleepy and covered in chocolate, and whispered:
"I already got it."
You couldnât stop giggling.
The sheer sight of themâcovered in chocolate glaze, shirtless, smeared in sugar like a walking dessert disasterâwas enough to send you into a breathless, joy-drunk fit of laughter. They stood there, eyes narrowed, watching you laugh with your whole chest, hands braced on the counter as they sulked dramatically.
"Yâreally think this is funny?"
"You look like a feral toddler that broke into a candy factory."
"Wow," they deadpanned.
"Love of my life, everyone. Cutely covered in chocolate..!"
You were still grinning as you grabbed their wrist and tugged them toward the hallway.
"Whereâre we goinâ?" they asked, still trailing chocolate with every step.
You turned, walking backward, still holding their hand. "To the bath. Youâre dripping.."
They groaned, low and theatrical. âBut I had plans, AngelâŠâ
You laughed again and kicked open the bathroom door, flipping on the light. "Yeah, well, now your plans involve hot water and soap."
âAnd you?â
You smirked. "Maybe."
They sat on the edge of the tub while you leaned over to start the water, steam already beginning to curl from the faucet. The water warmed, you turned back to themâmessy-haired, Blue-eyed, looking more like them than ever.
Chocolate streaked across the ink on their chest, making the black lines of their Japanese-inspired sleeve gleam wetly. The âangelâ tattoo on their neck peeked from behind a smear of cocoa, looking almost like it was inked there just for you. You caught sight of the binary code along their ribs, smudged with icing, and smiled as you reached up to brush a bit off their collarbone.
Your thumb hovered over the tattoo on their hipâyour name, delicate and lowercase, tucked just under the hem of their sweats.
They watched you the whole time. Quiet. Barely breathing.
You flicked a bit of chocolate off their cheek. "This is already the best birthday gift Iâve ever gotten, you know."
They huffed. âYou say that, but I wanted to give youâfuckinâ hell, AngelâI had a whole thing planned. Music, ribbon, goddamn frosting rosesââ
You giggled again and pushed at their chest lightly. âInto the tub, Birthday Disaster.â
They groaned as they stood, stripping off their sweatpants, still muttering curses under their breath. The piercings on their chest caught the light as they movedâboth nipples adorned in silver hoops that glinted as you helped them step into the tub.
You caught a glimpse of more metal as they sank into the waterâJacobâs ladder, shining and wickedâand tried very hard not to get distracted by that particular detail.
â...Yâjust gonna stare?â they teased, smirking up at you from the water.
You stuck out your tongue.
They grinned. âIâd die happy.â
You laughed againâreally laughedâand knelt by the tub, dipping a washcloth into the warm water and gently wiping the chocolate from their arm. Their eyes fluttered shut at the touch, mouth parting just slightly.
It was 12:30 AM. The house was quiet. The world was asleep.
But here you wereâcarefully washing streaks of dessert off their inked skin while they melted beneath your touch like you were the warm water.
"Yâdo this so easy," they mumbled, voice raspy. "Like I ainât just been a fuckinâ mess since I met you."
You wiped the chocolate off their neck and smiled softly.
"You are a mess."
They snorted. âThanks.â
You leaned in close, brushing your lips just under their ear. "But I still adore doing this for you."
Their breath caught. You felt it in their chestâtight, almost pained.
They cursed again, soft and sharp under their breath. "I wanted to do it right. Wanted to make it perfect for you. And here you are, takinâ care of me. Again.â
Your fingers trailed over their collarbone, over the silver ring in their nipple. They shivered, jaw tightening.
"You donât have to be perfect," you whispered.
âBut yâdeserve it.â
"And you deserve to be loved exactly like this."
Their eyes opened, golden and glassy, staring up at you like youâd just carved your name into the stars.
You dipped the washcloth again, brushing it over their tattooed chest. "Besides," you added with a teasing grin, âI really like my chocolate-glazed feral donut lover.â
They choked on a laugh. âAngel.â
You kissed their cheek. âYouâre sweet even without sugar.â
Their arms wrapped around your waist, pulling you close against the edge of the tub.
After toweling them off and shoving a shirt over their headâone of yours, because they absolutely refused to wear anything clean when they could steal your scentâthey flopped onto the bed with a dramatic groan.
âYou should sleep, Angel,â they mumbled, already sprawling like a cat in a sunbeam. âI ruined your birthday.."
You, very calmly, threw a pair of socks at their face.
âYou didnât ruin anything. In fact,â you said, tilting your head playfully, âI think we should bake a cake together.â
They blinked. â...What.â
âYeah! Like a proper celebration. You, me, some ingredients, maybe a fruit thing or likeâan ice cream cake? Angel food cake?â
They squinted at you. âYou just wanna see me set the oven on fire.â
âI want to beat you at baking,â you clarified, grinning wide. âAnd maybe rub a little whipped cream on your face if you keep looking at me like that.â
Their gaze narrowed, glittering. âThat a threat, Angel?â
You leaned in, devilish. âThatâs a promise.â
â...Fuck me.â
You smirked, grabbed their wrist, and pulled them out of bed.
â
The kitchen was quiet except for your soft humming and the distant whir of the fridge. The world was still dark, but inside this little bubbleâjust you and them and the chaos of your shared sleep-deprived energyâit felt like morning sunlight.
They sat on the counter, legs swinging, licking a spoon like it had personally wronged them.
âWhat kinda cake are we even making?â they mumbled around the spoon, still suspicious. âCanât just say âangel foodâ and expect me not to spiral.â
You turned, sticking your tongue out. âVanilla base. Berries. Ice cream layer. Whipped cream. Something we can eat at 2 AM while watching trash TV.â
They tilted their head, thoughtful. â...You really are tryinâ to kill me, huh?â
You just grabbed the mixing bowl and handed them a whisk. âYouâre gonna cream the butter.â
They blinked slowly, mouth twitching. â...You say that like itâs not the dirtiest sentence youâve ever spoken to me.â
âRedacted.â
âYes, Angel?â
âWhisk.â
They grinned and did as they were told, muscles flexing subtly under the thin fabric of your shirt. You didnât lookâokay, maybe you looked a littleâbut you mostly focused on cracking eggs and not falling in love all over again at 12:45 in the morning.
Eventually, the bowl was passed back to you, and you handed them the sifter with flour.
âDonât you dare sneeze.â
âWouldnât dream of it,â they muttered, only to accidentally puff flour in their own face like a curse.
You snorted.
They looked at you, deadpan, face powdered like a failed Victorian ghost. âYâthink youâre real cute, huh.â
âI know I am.â
You reached up with a dollop of whipped cream and tapped it right on the tip of their nose.
They didnât move.
Just stared at you.
Dead. Silent.
And then you leaned in, pressed a soft, lingering kiss to that same whipped-cream-smeared nose, and whispered, âGotcha.â
Their exhale was audible.
Like a man trying not to combust on the spot.
âYouâre testinâ me,â they muttered, voice low and fraying, âGod, youâre testinâ me. You put a collar on me next-"
You giggled and turned back to your mixing, unfazed. âYou canât even beat me in baking, love. What makes you think you can handle me? Second, We will do that later! Not Now!â
Behind you, they groaned into their hands. âI canât. Thatâs the problem.â
You poured the batter into the tray, already lined and prepped. Redacted helpedâbegrudgingly, like it was the most intimate act of worship they could performâand then hovered behind you while you slid it into the oven.
âYouâre warm,â they mumbled against your back.
âYouâre clingy,â you replied, but you didnât push them away.
Instead, you leaned into them, letting them wrap their arms around your waist.
Their chin rested on your shoulder. You felt their piercings brush your skinâcold against your warmthâand you smiled.
âYou smell like sugar,â they muttered, kissing your neck. âYouâre sweeter than anything we could bake. Sânot fair.â
You turned in their arms and pressed your forehead to theirs. âMaybe. But I still like it when your hands are covered in batter and you sigh like I just sentenced you to death.â
They closed their eyes. âYou did. A delicious death. My dignityâs buried in the flour bag.â
âYour dignity died when I caught you licking chocolate off the counter.â
They opened one eye. âStill tasted better than my soul ever did.â
You burst out laughing againâsoft, helpless, in loveâand their arms tightened around you like a reflex.
âYou really mean it?â you murmured after a beat. âYouâd bake with me every year? Even if..."
They looked down at you like youâd said their name in the voice of a god.
âAngel,â they said softly, âIâd bake with you every night, every year, every timeline. Even if it kills me. Even if it burns. I donât care. Long as itâs with you.â
Your smile softened. âThen itâs already a perfect birthday.â
You were just placing the final swirl of whipped cream on top of the cake when you heard them rummaging behind you. You didnât think much of itâhe was always up to something weird in the kitchen. But then he turned aroundâŠ
With a single candle clutched delicately between two tattooed fingers.
You blinked.
ââŠIs that from the junk drawer?â you asked, a laugh tugging at your lips.
âItâs technically birthday-colored,â they replied solemnly, inspecting the little pink-and-white wax stick like it was an ancient relic. âAnd not expired. I checked. Sâgot likeâhalf a wick left.â
You almost lost it when he stuck it into the cake like it was a ceremonial sword. It tilted a bit, like it was too shy to stand up straight.
âReally went all out, huh,â you teased, grinning.
They lit it.
And then everything pausedâsoft candlelight flickering across his features, catching the metal of his piercings like tiny stars, the tattoo on his neck peeking out above the collar of your borrowed shirt: angel, inked into a crooked little heart.
His eyes glimmered.
Like you were something sacred.
He cleared his throat once, then said, voice almost shy, âHappy birthday, Angel.â
You laughedâbut it caught in your chest, tangled up with something warmer, heavier. It wasnât even the candle, not reallyâit was the way he looked at you. Like you were the whole sky and he wouldâve kissed the ground you walked on if you asked.
Before he could say anything else, you crossed the kitchen and threw your arms around him.
They made a soft, surprised noiseâlike youâd punched the air out of their lungsâthen immediately hugged you back, tight, strong hands splaying across your back like they could anchor you there forever.
You whispered into the side of his neck, âIâm glad I got to spend my birthday with you again.â
You felt them stiffen, just for a momentâlike your words hit deeper than intended.
When he pulled back to look at you, his eyebrows twitched like he couldnât decide whether to smile or fall apart.
âAngelâŠâ he said, voice low and cracking, âyâdonât gottaâfuck, donât say it like that. Youâre gonna make meââ
He broke off, biting the inside of their cheek like it hurt to hold it in.
You were tearing up too, now.
It was stupid. It was just a cake, a candle dug out of a junk drawer, a night at 1 a.m. in a messy kitchen with your unhinged, obsessive, pierced-up weirdo who pretended they didnât have feelingsâbut fell harder for you every damn second.
And it was perfect.
He kissed your cheeksâboth of themâin quick, desperate little pecks that tasted like whipped cream and held back tears.
âNo cryinâ,â he mumbled against your skin. âNot tonight. Not on your birthday. Yâhear me? Donât cry âcause then Iâm gonna fuckinâ cry and then weâre gonna be pathetic and sticky.â
You giggled wetly. âThat sounds kinda romantic though.â
âTragic,â they muttered, eyes shining, âbut so goddamn hot.â
You kissed the corner of his mouth, still smiling. âThen letâs be tragic. But happy.â
âAlways.â
You both ended up sitting cross-legged on the floor, cake between you. You insisted on cutting itâhe insisted you shouldn't be trusted with knives, so naturally you cut it anyway.
You fed him firstâbecause it was your birthday and you said so. He leaned forward obediently, mouth open like some bratty prince demanding to be served.
âSay âahhh,ââ you teased.
They rolled their eyes like you were the biggest nuisance alive, then bit the spoon dramatically. âAhhh, fuck yeah.â
You snorted. âThatâs not what I meant.â
âTasted like heaven,â he said, licking frosting from the corner of their mouth. âBet your fingers taste better.â
âStop being needy for two seconds.â
âGenuinely impossible.â
You popped a bite into your own mouthâsweet, cold, meltingâand he watched you like it was a religious rite he was privileged to witness.
And thenâdeviouslyâhe dipped a finger into the whipped cream and booped your nose.
You gasped. âYou did not.â
They grinned like a devil who absolutely would.
âOh, itâs war now.â
You lunged, dragging a swipe of cream across his lips.
He licked it off without breaking eye contact. âYouâre flirting with death.â
âYou like it.â
âGod, I do.â
The air between you changedâcharged, heavy, slow. His hand cupped your jaw. Your fingers still sticky with sugar. He leaned forward and kissed youâsoft, slow, sweet, tasting like frosting and sugar and something impossibly tender.
âI ever tell you I love you?â he whispered against your mouth.
You nodded, breath catching. âEvery day.â
âGood,â he murmured. âGotta remind you. You forget sometimes.â
You shook your head, smiling so hard it hurt. âI never forget. Youâre unforgettable.â
He nuzzled your cheek, his piercings cool against your flushed skin, but his body solid and warm as ever.
âStill wish I did more,â he mumbled.
âYou did plenty.â
He kissed your forehead. âIâm gonna do more. Every birthday. Every night. Every fuckinâ lifetime. 'Til you're sick of me.â
âImpossible,â you whispered.
You beamed up at them, warmth bubbling in your chest like sunlight.
Both of youâmessy, covered in cake crumbs, sleepy-eyedâadored each other so hard it almost hurt. It was the kind of love that made everything else in the world irrelevant.
You barely made it to the bed before passing out. Redacted curled around you like a human blanket, arms and legs tangled in yours, breathing against your neck like you were the only oxygen they needed.
It was perfect. Untilâ
"Angel," they mumbled, nudging you insistently. You groaned, burying your face into the pillow. "Five more minutes..."
They snorted, low and amused. "Yeah, nah. Up y'get, sweetheart."
Before you could argue, Redacted just scooped you upâlike you weighed nothingâand slung you over their shoulder like a smug, tattooed gremlin.
You shrieked, half-laughing, pounding your fists weakly against their back. "Put me down, you menace!"
"Nope," they said with way too much glee, "You forfeited your rights when you declared war with whipped cream last night."
You laughed so hard you almost slipped from their hold, but they caught you without hesitation, muttering, "Gotcha. Always gotcha."
You ended up perched on the bathroom counter, while Redactedâstill looking far too proud of themselvesâstarted running a warm bath.
"Supposed to be takin' care of you," they grumbled, fussing with soap and towels like it was serious business.
You just watched them with your heart melting into syrup.
When they turned back around, you smiled mischievously. "My turn to take care of you, dummy."
They scowled, but the tips of their ears turned pink. "M'not a dummy. S'posed to be pamperin' you. Birthday rules."
"Yeah? Well," you said, hopping off the counter, "the real rule is we take care of each other."
They stared at youâjust staredâlike youâd hung the constellations just to light their way home. Then they let you tug them into the tub without a word.
The bath was slow, dreamy. You traced their tattoos with soapy fingersâthe chaotic art scrawled across their skin, from the massive Japanese sleeve inked down their arm.
You kissed the "angel" tattoo on their neck, nuzzled the wings inked low on their back, whispered your love against the curve of their hipbone.
And they just... melted for you.
Every brush of your hands, every glance of your eyesâthey were falling apart and being stitched back together by your touch alone.
Later, after youâd managed to get dressed (despite their pitiful whining about "c'mon, birthday privilege"), Redacted muttered about "plans" and practically dragged you out the door.
The first stop?
The little cafe.
Your cafe.
The one you and "Ren" went on your first date into like two idiots pretending you werenât already hopelessly, irreversibly entangled.
Redacted didn't say a wordâjust pressed a hand to the small of your back and led you in.
The second the barista spotted them, they lit up. "Hey, welcome back! Got it ready!"
They handed over a small, perfect vanilla angel food cakeâsoft white icing, strawberries, and a single candle flickering like a tiny heartbeat.
Your throat closed up. Tears blurred your vision.
Because you knew.
You knew how much this meant. How hard they must have worked to pull this off, in the quiet, in the background, just to make you smile.
This wasnât just a cafe. It was your place.
The place where they lied to youâand where you loved them anyway. The place where you learned the truthâand loved them even more.
They pulled out a chair for you, fidgeting nervously, tattooed fingers twitching.
You sat.
They sat across from you, that familiar crooked grin softening their sharp features.
The candle flickered between you.
"Go on," they said, voice rough with feeling. "Make a wish, birthday.."
You closed your eyes and whispered two wishes into the candlelight.
The first:
"Insert your wish!"
The secondâ
You opened your eyes, locked your gaze with theirs, and said it aloud:
"My second wish is to stay with you forever, Redacted."
They blinked.
Once.
Twice.
And thenâ
[REDACTED.EXE HAS STOPPED WORKING]
You watched him short-circuit, visibly struggling not to combust on the spot. His mouth opened, closed, opened again. Their piercings caught the candlelight like tiny, desperate stars. Their hands spasmed on the table like they didnât know whether to grab you or worship you from afar.
They made a broken little noiseâhalf laugh, half sob.
"Youâyou fuckin'â" they stammered, face flushing crimson from the tips of their ears down to the tattooed curve of their throat. "Y'can't just say shit like that, Angel, fuckâ!"
You laughed, radiant, drinking in the rare sight of them absolutely speechless.
Redacted groaned loudly, dragging their hands down their face.
"You're gonna fuckin' kill me," they muttered. "Swear t'god. Death by Angel. Fuckin' death by love."
You stood up, circled around, and hugged them from behind, resting your chin lightly on their shoulder.
"I hope so," you whispered. "If Iâm gonna kill you, it might as well be with love."
They turned their head, pressing a kiss into your temple, breathing you in like you were the first real thing they'd ever tasted.
"I love you so fuckinâ much," they rasped, voice cracked open and bare.
Together, you blew out the candle.
And somewhere in the spaces between heartbeats, you both understoodâ
You werenât just celebrating another year alive.
You were celebrating every messy, beautiful, wild day you had survived to reach each other.
Every birthday after this?
Would only get better.
Because you werenât just growing older.
You were growing together.
You cut a small piece of the cake first, hands a little shaky because Redacted was staring at you like youâd personally invented gravity.
You snorted under your breath. âStop looking at me like that, weirdo.â
They leaned back in their chair, arms crossing lazily, smirk tugging at their pierced lip. âCanât help it. Lookinâ at my whole fuckinâ world. Sue me.â
Your face heated so fast you almost dropped the fork.
"Shut up and eat," you muttered, cheeks burning, but gods, the grin stretching your mouth was unstoppable.
You held out the bite of cake to them, and Redactedâever the menaceâleaned forward, catching the fork between their teeth, humming low in their throat like it was the best thing theyâd ever tasted.
âMm. Good,â they said simply, but the way they looked at you, like you hung the stars crooked just to make them smile, nearly did you in.
âYour turn, Angel.â
They grabbed a pieceâway too bigâand shoved it toward your mouth with a grin so chaotic it shouldâve been illegal.
"Be nice!" you gasped, trying not to choke, giggling around the mouthful.
"Was beinâ nice," they teased, flicking a smear of cream off your lip with their thumbâand then licking it clean without a shred of shame, like they wanted you to combust right there.
You fed each other back and forth, no hope of staying clean, laughing harder with every swipe of frosting across a cheek, every clumsy bump of noses.
At some point, you both gave up on dignity.
There you wereâat this tiny, cozy cafeâfeeding each other like absolute gremlins, icing on your faces, table rattling under your weight as you leaned too close, your laughter bubbling so loud it turned heads.
(You noticed the college kids trying not to stare. You noticed the old couple smiling fondly from the corner. You noticed the barista behind the counter giving a thumbs-up. None of it mattered.)
Because in that moment, Redacted wasnât the figure from the shadows. Wasnât the myth or the secret.
They were just yours.
Yours, yours, yours.
Your beautiful, punkish, messy partner, silver jewelry glinting in the warm light, tattoos curling along tan skin, their eyes crinkled up from smiling so damn hard.
"Youâre so fuckinâ pretty when you laugh," they muttered, like it physically hurt to keep the words in. Their voice rough and low and wrecked in the way that made your stomach do dangerous things. "Swear, Angel. You fuckin' kill me."
You dipped your finger into the icing and dabbed it onto the tip of their nose.
They blinked at you, unimpressed.
âYou gonna clean that, or am I wearin' it forever now?â they asked, all dry sarcasm barely hiding the absolute adoration bleeding off them.
You leaned in and kissed their noseâsoft and sweetâand pulled back just far enough to see the way their eyes fluttered shut at the contact.
"There. Perfect," you whispered.
Redacted exhaled like youâd punched the air out of themâarms wrapping around your waist, dragging you into their lap despite the tiny table squeezing you both.
"...S'too fuckin' early for me to be this gone for you," they mumbled into your shoulder, nuzzling there like a sleep-drunk cat.
You laughed, heart splitting open inside your chest. "You're always gone for me, dummy."
After you finished most of the cakeâand wiped about half of it off each otherâRedacted leaned back in their chair, lazily draping an arm across the back of your seat. Their thumb brushed idly against your shoulder as they stared at you with a look that made your heart skip hard enough to ache.
Then they smirked. "Got somewhere else I wanna take ya, Angel."
You tilted your head, curious. "Where?"
They just chuckled low under their breathâ sound that made your stomach flipâand stood up, ruffling your hair//
"Trust me."
(You did. Always.)
Outside, parked by the curb under the humming streetlights, was Redactedâs beat-up black motorcycle. The thing gleamed, battered but proud, the kind of vehicle you could tell had survived more chaos than it shouldâve. (Kinda like him.)
He popped open the small storage compartment, pulled out a matte black helmet, and shoved it gently onto your head, securing it with exaggerated care.
"Safety first, Dear Angel," they said, tapping the top of the helmet. "Ain't lettin' you crack that pretty head open today."
You stuck your tongue out at them, and they laughedâfull, rough, and delighted.
He looked so damn smug about it too, like he lived for these moments. Big, bad Redacted... spoiling you like it was built into their DNA.
They swung a leg over the bike, movements easy, confident, then patted the seat behind them.
"Hop on, Angel," he teased, flashing a sharp grin. "Unless you're scared."
You climbed onâonly wobbling a little (which you would never admit)âand wrapped your arms tightly around his middle. You felt his quiet laugh vibrate through you right before the bike roared to life beneath you both.
And thenâ You were flying.
The city blurred around you, neon and headlights bleeding together, the wind clawing at your jacket and stinging your cheeks. You pressed closer against him, feeling the solid heat of his body through his layers, your heart hammering not from fearâbut from exhilaration.
It was terrifying. It was electric. It was perfect.
At a red light, you caught sight of a few familiar faces on the sidewalkâpeople from before. People you used to know.
Their gazes snapped to you instantly, Wantin to talk, Especially your friend. But You got into a small fight..
You felt Redacted tense beneath you.
He noticed. Of course he did.
"Ignore 'em," he muttered over his shoulder, voice low and dangerous.
Still, you couldn't pretend it didn't sting a littleâthe way they looked at you, the whispers that seemed to curl in the back of your mind.
You shifted slightly, clutching a little tighter.
"You mad?" he asked, head tilting slightly toward you.
"...Little," you admitted, trying to keep it light, trying not to let it ruin tonight. "But I don't care. Not right now."
You pressed your forehead between his shoulder blades, breathing him inâleather, smoke, and that grounding, fiery scent that was just him.
"I just wanna be with you today," you mumbled against his back. "That's all that matters."
For a moment, he didnât say anything.
Then his hand left the handlebar just long enough to find your thighâfingers curling tight, steady, grounding.
"Y'got me, Angel," he said roughly. "Always."
And you believed it.
With every beat of your heart against his spine. With every mile tearing past under the bikeâs tires. With every breath you dared to steal from the night sky.
You had him.
Always.
The light turned green. The world roared back to life.
He drove faster now, just a little reckless, taking sharp turns and speeding down empty roads until you were laughing breathlessly against his back, clutching him like a lifeline. (He loved it. You knew he did. You could feel it in how he relaxed under your touch.)
Redacted looked way too proud of himself. That smug little grin didnât leave their face as they tugged you along the street, their hand warm and rough around yours.
"Keep 'em shut, Angel," he said, sliding his hand over your eyes as you giggled, stumbling a little, trusting him without question.
"Where are we going?" you whined playfully, trying (and failing) to peek.
He just snorted, steering you carefully. "You'll see."
You could feel how giddy he was. His steps were practically bouncing, like he couldn't decide between rushing or dragging it out just to hear you squirm a little longer.
He led you inside somewhereâcooler air, a faint sound like distant bubbles rising. The smell of salt, that deep, watery echo of a place full of life.
You realized where you were a second before he dropped his hand.
When your eyes adjustedâ Your breath hitched.
The whole room shimmered in soft blue and purple hues. All around you, massive tanks glowed, full of drifting jellyfishâluminescent and ghostly, pulsing like slow, sleeping hearts.
Big ones with long trailing tendrils. Tiny ones, bright as sparks, moving in lazy spirals. The ceiling was mirrored, throwing a hundred more stars above your head.
It was like stepping into a dream.
A whole exhibit, just for jellyfish. Just for you.
You turned, overwhelmedâand found him already staring. Not at the lights. Not at the tanks. Only at you.
Tears welled in your eyes before you could stop them, blurring the entire world into a wash of color and light.
He stiffened instantly. Panic flickered across his face. "ShitâAngelâ? Iâ"
You grabbed his hand before he could spiral, squeezing tight.
He flinched, confusedâbut you just smiled through the tears, that helpless, wrecked kind of smile that cracked him clean open every time.
"Youâre confused...?" you choked out, half-laughing. "I'm justâI'm so happy. Youâ"
You broke off, overwhelmed, and pressed a kiss to the back of his scarred, calloused hand. Right over all the little marks he tried to hide without even realizing it.
"You're beautiful," you whispered. "Even with everything. Especially because of everything."
He swallowed hard, their fingers twitching slightly against yours like he didn't know what to do with the feeling burning through him.
You saw itâthat tiny, trembling crack in his armor. The one he only ever let you see.
He blinked fast, looking up sharply like he could force the emotions down if he just didn't look at you.
You laughed, wiping your cheeks clumsilyâand they finally let themself smile. Crooked. Warm. So, so soft.
He reached out, lacing his fingers with yours and tugging you closer until your shoulder bumped theirs.
"Let's go, Angel," he said gruffly.
You wandered the glowing paths together, hand in hand. Jellyfish floated like dreams on every side of you, casting your joined shadows in strange, beautiful shapes across the floor.
Every so often, Redactedâs thumb would stroke absent-minded, slow circles into the back of your hand. Little soothing touches he probably didnât even realize he was giving.
And every once in a while, youâd catch him sneaking a glance at you.
Like he couldn't help it. Like he needed to memorize you right here, glowing and real and holding his hand like youâd never let go.
You caught him onceâand grinned. He immediately muttered under his breath, "'S your fault for bein' so fuckin' pretty," and refused to meet your eyes for a full two minutes after that.
(You smiled like a saint anyway. Like a fool in love. Like a fool who knew he loved you back.)
The jellyfish floated like a galaxy caught in water. Slow, deliberate pulses moved them through the glowing blue all around you. Some were tiny, no bigger than your fingernail, bobbing like fragile paper lanterns. Others had long, trailing tentacles like ribbons pulled along a gentle current.
You jumped slightly, a tiny gasp slipping out, full of wonder and joy. The sound made Redacted glance sideways at you, a crooked smirk tugging at his mouthâ but it was the kind of smile that ached with how much he loved seeing you like this.
The jellyfish changed colors, shifting from pale moonlight white to soft pinks and delicate lavenders, and then into deep, royal blues that mirrored the midnight sky outside. You stood there, struck silent, mouth parted in awe. Your hands tightened in his without even realizing it, squeezing, needing something to anchor you against how unreal it all felt.
Redacted leaned down a little, his breath brushing against your temple. "Y'know..." he murmured, voice low and rough, fond in a way they hardly ever let slip, "I coulda brought you anywhere, Angel. Anywhere in the fuckin' world. But you... you get like this over some floatin' fishbags."
You laughed, wiping at your cheeks again, still damp from earlier tears. "They're beautiful," you whispered, bumping your shoulder lightly against his. "You're beautiful for bringing me here."
He snorted, trying to act unaffected, but you caught the way his ears turned pink under the silver piercings.
("Fuck," he muttered under his breath, low and ragged, like even he couldnât believe how soft he was for you.)
You let go of his hand for a moment and spun slowly under the shimmering glow. The reflections of the jellyfish swam over your skinârippling blues and silvers along your arms, your cheeks, your lashes. You looked like something not meant for the earth.
And Redacted was ruined by it.
"Fuckin' ethereal," he muttered, rough and reverent. (Probably meant for you not to hear. You definitely heard.)
You came to a stop in front of him, smiling shy and warm, eyes still glassy with wonder. And he was justâlooking at you. Like breathing hurt a little.
You reached out, curling your fingers into the collar of his jacket, tugging him closer. The corner of their mouth twitched up in something like amusement, but his gaze softened completely, molten and unguarded, and he let you pull him down to you.
The kiss was feather-light at first. Soft. Tentative. Almost like you both feared breaking the delicate moment spun between you.
His hands hovered at your waist, not grabbing, not demandingâoffering. Waiting. Letting you lead.
You deepened the kiss just a littleâ And he melted.
Their hands slid over your hips, slow and reverent, their thumbs drawing tender little arcs against your sides. You parted your lips with a soft, unthinking sound, and Redacted shuddered against you like youâd pulled the air straight from their lungs.
When you finally parted, he leaned his forehead against yours, breathing rough, breathing you in.
"Happy fuckinâ birthday, Angel," he rasped, his voice scraped raw with feeling. "Hope it's not... y'know... too much."
You opened your eyes and stared at him. At him, this beautiful, feral, breakable thing trying so hard to be good enough for you.
You shook your head and smiled, radiant and aching. "It's perfect," you whispered. "You're perfect."
Redacted cursed again, low and almost helpless, like he couldnât handle the way you looked at him like he had strung up the stars himself just to impress you. (And he had. In his own way. He'd given you a whole ocean tonight. Salt was not needed)
The two of you drifted through the exhibits for what felt like hours. You pointed out your favorite jellyfishâthe tiny ones that looked like miniature fireworks, and the giant ghostlike ones that drifted by like slow, dreaming spirits. Every so often, Redacted would brush his thumb against the back of your hand, or bump his shoulder into yoursâquiet little reassurances, little touches that said I'm here. Iâm still here.
At one point, you leaned into him, resting your head against his shoulderâand he just... let you. No teasing. No pretending to be tougher than he was.
He tilted his head to lean lightly against yours, closing his eyes for a moment like soaking in you was the only thing keeping him tethered to the earth.
And honestly... It felt that way for you, too.
When you finally wandered out into the cool night air, hand in hand, you could still see the jellyfish behind your eyelidsâ like the whole world had been changed and made softer just for the two of you.
Redacted tugged you closer against their side, slipping his arm easily around your waist like he couldnât help himself anymore.
You didn't even try to hide the grin breaking across your face.
"You keep lookin' at me like that," he grumbled, though there was no heat to it at all.
You laughed, soft and light as the night around you. You leaned up and pressed a kiss to the corner of his mouth, catching on the little silver hoop you always secretly adored.
"I do like you, dumbass," you said sweetly. "Love you, actually."
He froze. Just for a second.
And then he was tucking you tighter against him, nearly crushing you to his side, desperate and sure all at once.
"Yeah," he muttered into your hair, voice thick and shaking a little. "Love you too, Angel.
The day had been blessedâthere was no other word for it. It felt like walking through a dream stitched together by Redactedâs own hands.
After the jellyfish, he hadnât stopped. He just kept going, pulling you from one hidden gem to anotherâtiny cafes tucked between buildings, old bookstores with cracked spines and friendly ghosts, cozy little shops where you used to window-shop and dream about âsomeday.â
He bought you new anime merch youâd been eyeingâsneaking it into a bag behind your back with the subtlety of a gremlinâand picked out fresh drawing supplies, too, without you even hinting. He just knew. The right pens, the exact brand of sketchbook you always lingered over but never let yourself buy. You loved art
Every time you gasped or smiled or shyly murmured a "thank you," he just shrugged and muttered something like, "'Course I fuckinâ know what you like, Angel. Donât act all surprised." But the tips of his ears still turned pink every damn time.
The day had been filled with laughter, soft teasing, stolen kisses you tried to sneakâand kisses Redacted didnât sneak at all. He wanted it known. Wanted everyone to see: you were his, and he was yours.
Now, it was almost midnight. The motorcycle purred under the both of you, the city lights blurring into molten streaks of gold, violet, neon pink.
You clutched the back of his jacket, resting your forehead against his spine. Even through leather and fabric, you felt the steady beat of his heart. He didnât ride fast tonight. It wasnât about adrenaline. It was about being closeâfor every last second of your birthday.
You caught sight of a clock on a passing buildingâ11:58 PM. Almost over. Your chest ached with the bittersweet of it.
Redacted mustâve felt it too. Because the next quiet overlook he spotted, he pulled over, cut the engine. The world slipped into a hush, nothing but the far-off hum of the city and the sigh of the wind.
You climbed off, legs shaky from more than just the ride. He followed, tugging off his helmet, silver piercings catching the moonlight, messy hair falling into his eyes.
He stared at you. A long secondâlike he was trying to memorize you. Brand you into memory so deep even death couldn't steal it.
Then he smiled. Small, crooked, a little tired. Overflowing with a love too big for him to carry alone.
"Happy birthday," he rasped, voice rough-edged with all the feelings he wasnât good at naming. "Thanks for... y'know. Thanks for fuckin' spendinâ it with me."
You opened your mouthâready to tell him there was nothing you wouldâve wanted moreâbut he beat you to it, gaze flickering away like he couldnât stand to see your face when he said it:
"I really don't fuckin' deserve you, Angel."
Your breath hitched. No. No way were you letting him think that.
You stepped close, cupping his jaw between your hands, feeling the rough scrape of stubble under your thumbs. Grounding. Real.
"Thank you, Redacted," you whispered, voice thick with everything you couldnât fit into words. "I love you."
Something shattered behind his eyes. Like a dam cracking open.
You leaned up and kissed himâdesperate, trembling, cryingâand he kissed you back like you were the air heâd been choking for.
His hands gripped your waist, careful and reverent, holding you like you were something holy, something breakable and precious and his.
When you finally pulled away, his eyes shone in the dark. He wasnât cryingâhe was too stubborn for thatâbut you knew. You saw it.
You pressed your forehead against his, breathing each other in as the clock ticked over.
12:00 AM. Your birthday was officially over.
But you didnât feel sad. Because you still had him. And he still had you.
Maybe that was the real gift all along.
The city lights blurred in your periphery, a soft, pulsing halo. But nothing was brighter than the way Redacted looked at you.
You smiled through your tears and pressed a kiss to the corner of his mouth, brushing against the little silver hoop you adored, then another kiss under his jaw, where a faint scar lived.
"Youâre the best thing I got today," you whispered against his skin.
He snorted wetly, the sound rough and choked with barely-held emotion. He squeezed you closer, until it felt like you were pressed heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul.
"Fuckâs sake, Angel," he muttered, voice cracking just enough for you to hear it. "How the fuck am I sâposed to top that next year?"
You laughedâa bright, breathless soundâand wrapped your arms around him tighter, like you could stitch yourselves together if you just tried hard enough.
"I guess weâll just have to keep trying," you teased, grinning against the curve of his neck.
Redacted chuckled under his breathâlow and warmâand then kissed you again. Slow. Deep. Like a vow.
Again and again. As long as youâd let him.
Hey... Angel.
Happy birthday. I'm glad you're here.
I'm fuckin' lucky I get to see you smile, lucky I get to touch you, laugh with you... It means youâre here with me.
You're the best thing that's ever happened to me, y'know that? If it were up to me, I'd wrap you in my arms and never let you go. You deserve everything good, and better than good. You deserve heaven, Angel.
So... yeah. Happy birthday. Thanks for stickinâ around, even when I don't make it easy. Thanks for lettin' me love you the only way I know howâmessy, loud, real as fuck. Thanks for choosinâ me, when you coulda had anyone else.
I ain't gonna pretend I'm good enough for you. But I am gonna spend every goddamn day tryin' to be someone you can keep smilin' at. Someone you can love without regret. Someone you can come home to and knowâfuckinâ knowâthat no matter how fucked up the world gets, you got someone whoâll always, always choose you.
And if you ever want it, I'll build it for you. Brick by fuckin' brick.
Happy birthday. I love you more than I'll ever be able to say right.
-RENDACTED

Ooohh ma shaylaaa
Dad!Ren and his daughter Shayla (My OC fankid!!!)
FINALLY, after some hard work i represent to you.. My OC Shayla! Shayla is based on the official cutiesigh artwork with AU Dad!Ren. This post will have all the basic info about her so far + some headcanons about Ren's family life and his relationship with Shayla. So it's going to be a kinda? long post! I've put a lot of work and love into these arts. Enjoy :3
Redacted holding Shayla!! and their very different reactions
They're just having a bit of a nap on the sofa after Shayla painted Ren's face... and Shayla is drooling on dad's soft chestđ (kind of inspired?? by this post!)
Her reference:
BASIC INFO
Clarification: in my AU, where there is Shayla, Redacted doesn't pretend to be Ren, but acts naturally! But I use both names in the text
Shayla is a kind, naive, sincere, energetic and cheerful girl who is always looking for adventure. But often, due to her age, her trusting nature and her curiosity, she doesn't always understand the risks and ends up in various messes. The girl is very friendly to everyone she meets! She believes that the world is a kind and beautiful place! Some kids think that Shayla is strange and weird (at least because of her "weird" family), which is why she gets mocked, but she doesn't read social cues (she's kinda autistic coded).
Likes: creative activities (drawing, needlework, sewing (not very wearable yet), making different outfits, daddy's jewelry, laughing, getting up early, climbing trees.
Dislikes: being controlled and restricted, rudeness, social games (she doesn't understand them).
She is the only and most wanted child for Ren and Angel, they had her when they were 30-35 years old. They love her very much!! Thanks to Ren, the family is very wealthy! Redacted spoils her a lot, fulfills all her wishes (well, as much as possible, since it's all after Angel, of course). In Shayla's family, both parents work, but Ren does it from home like he used to. So while Angel is at work, Redacted spends most of his time with their daughter. He picks her up from school, takes her to classes, goes for walks with her + does the housework, cooks, etc (basically he's a stay-at-home dad, because I don't think he needs to spend half a day on hacking; a couple of three hours is enough). With the birth of Shayla, Ren has begun to keep an eye not only on Angel, but also on their daughter, though not as closely. Thanks to this, he manages to get the girl out of trouble in time, but he often arrives at the very last moment.
Shayla is very attached to her father, she thinks he is the coolest dad in the world!!! She loves spending time with him, as well as his dark style and tattoos! She is a daddy's girl :))
While Angel is undoubtedly still Ren's top priority, Redacted genuinely loves his daughter both as an affirmation/continuation of their love with Angel AND for who she is. Her cheerful nature often lifts his spirits. Now, he has another person in his life who helps him see the world through a different, less apathetic and indifferent lens. Ren sees how naive and kind his daughter is and protects her to keep that light in her. And when Shayla comes up with questionable ideas⊠He supports her! He even suggests something himselfđ BUT even he has limits. He will not do anything that might harm her.
(pretty much everything canon about how Sai describes Dad!Ren)
RANDOM FACTS AND HEADCANONS:
I named her after that meme OOHH MY SHAYLAAAđ (I didn't have a name for her at first, so I just called her that in my mind for a while. It was actually quite funny to me⊠but eventually it started to grow on me, ngl, so I kept it)
You know those stories where a kid goes into their mom's makeup bag, purse, or closet and tries on something? In this case, mom is Renđ Shayla loves to find all kinds of alt stuff from Redacted, ask what it is, and then try it on herself! Redacted gave her some - a spiked bracelet and a silver chain!
Ren agrees to paint Shayla's nails. She wears all the colors of the rainbow, but she likes to keep all her nails black on one hand, though!
Thanks to the creative atmosphere in the family and Redacted's alternative style, Shayla will be a goth in the future! She's also going to become an alt-clothing designer.
She is wearing three of the five gold hairpins that Ren used to wear! When Redacted and Angel got married, he started wearing only two hairpins - a symbol of their relationship. Years later, when Shayla was born and grew up, the rest of the hairpins were inherited to her, and she wears them with great pride, just like the rest of her dad's jewelry.
Shayla also has her dad's features. She has pale, dry skin and black hair. However, her eyes are a unique combination of Ren's color (blue) + my Angel's (red) = creating a beautiful purple color for her.(I know that's not how gynetics works lmaoo I just think it's cute!!!)
aaaand also, @yzumimenu drew some amazing fanart of Shayla, LOOK AT HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND TY SO MUCH AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sweetness Overload? - REDACTED X G.N Reader (SMUT?)

Genre: smut
Summary: âREQUEST COPIED angel and redacted agreed on a challenge that they will be eating a chocolate with aphrodisiac in it and have to hold in their pent up desires for as long as they can. whoever lasts longer wins and whoever loses their shit and tries to relieve themselves loses
( Reader is a g.n!)
EXTRA: This was a request, from discord, They're a good friend!!
This is the first out of 1/50, again request you can request!
Content/Trigger warnings
Explicit Sexual Content (NSFW)
Dom/Sub Dynamics (Teasing, control, and edging)
Praise Kink
Strong Emotional Intimacy
Light Roughness (Biting, marking, possessive touch)
Overstimulation
APHRODISIAC. CHOCOLATE
Did not proof read/Rushed.
The chocolate sat on your tongue like a dare.
It melted slowârich, dark, spiked with something that coiled heat low in your stomach. You didn't even blink as you swallowed it, leaning back with a hum like youâd just tasted something divine. Across from you, REDACTED mirrored you with that practiced calm, expression unreadable⊠but that twitch in his jaw? That wasnât nothing.
He licked the corner of his mouth, lazy. âSweet, huh?â âLike sin,â you said. And he smiled, but it didnât reach his eyes. Too dangerous. Too hot. Too interested.
His sledgehammer was in the corner, still flecked with red from a few nights ago. Youâd teased him for not cleaning it. He said he liked the color. Now, his attention was all on you.
You crossed your legs just to mess with him. His gaze flicked down. Not subtle.
âYou good?â you asked, feigning innocence. âYou're awfully quiet.â He tilted his head, eyes half-lidded. âMâfine. Are you?â
âPeachy.â
âMmh.â He leaned forward. Just a little. âYâsure that chocolate didnât hit you too hard, Angel?â
You didn't answer just looked away, Now it was already 20 minutes
It looked like a curse wrapped in silver foil. Deep, glossy brownâinfused with something unspoken and forbidden. A custom aphrodisiac designed to test every ounce of restraint. You and REDACTED had agreed to the challenge half-jokingly, sometime after midnight, legs tangled from a movie neither of you finished watching. One piece each. No touching. No relieving. Whoever broke first, lost.
Youâd thought it might even the playing field.
Redacted leaned back against the headboard, long legs stretched, hands on his thighs like this was a Sunday nap instead of the literal edge of hell. There was that usual lazy calm in the way he moved, like he had nothing to prove. But you knew better. You knew him. That softness in his grin? That wasnât detachment. That was devotion.
You, on the other hand, felt like your skin didnât fit. The chocolate hit like a whisper at firstâsweet, heady, richâbut then it wound its way through your nerves like silk on a razor. Your clothes were too close. The air was too warm. Every heartbeat throbbed somewhere low and aching.
You shifted, biting the inside of your cheek.
âYou alright over there, angel?â he asked, voice thick and sweet, like he wasnât the real problem.
Your glare didnât even have the heat to land. "fine.â He hummed. Not smug. Just fond. âYou donât look fine. Yâlook like a match waitinâ to be struck.â
The worst part? He was completely unaffected. Not cold. Just... steady. The chocolate might as wellâve been a breath mint to him. He wasnât sweating. He wasnât squirming. You were halfway to melting, and he was watching you like a man in love at a funeralâsilent, reverent, and a little bit ruined.
âYou sure you wanna keep goinâ?â he murmured, head tilting slightly. âI wonât tease if itâs too much. Jusâ say the word.â It was soft. Gentle. Genuine. And it made it so much worse.
Because he meant it. Because he always meant it.
Because he was always like this. Down bad. Horny. Obsessed. He didnât need some fancy chocolate. You could sneeze in his direction and heâd be halfway to planning your wedding. This wasnât a challenge to himâit was foreplay for a game heâd already lost the moment he laid eyes on you.
âIâm good,â you mumbled, even though your whole body felt like live wire.
He nodded like he believed you. âBrave thing.â
You groaned into your hands. âHow are you so calm?â
He blinked, confused like youâd asked why the sky was blue. Then that soft grin pulled at his lips, lazy and loving. âAngel. Mâhard all the time.â Your breath caught. âAnything you doâanythingâyou could eat soup and Iâd be fightinâ for my life. This? Chocolate? Please. Youâre just givinâ me permission to watch you come apart. Ainât no punishment in that.â
Your jaw dropped. âSo youâreâwhat? Not struggling at all?â
âOh, Iâm strugglinâ,â he drawled, adjusting where he sat. âJust not from the chocolate.â He looked you overâslowly, deliberately. âMâstrugglinâ because youâre sittinâ there all flushed and breathinâ hard and makinâ them soft little noises, and I gotta pretend I ainât already in love with every twitch of your pretty mouth.â
You stared at him, heat licking up your spine.
He leaned in slightlyânot close enough to touch, but just enough that you could feel it. The tension. The devotion. The ache.
âI donât need help wantinâ you, angel,â he murmured, voice dipping low. âI wake up wantinâ you. I go to sleep wantinâ you. I breathe wantinâ you. Chocolate ainât got shit on that.â
You made a strangled sound.
Redacted grinned.
âStill wanna win?â You glared. âI was winning.â âOh? You sure? âCause youâre lookinâ awful twitchy over thereâŠâ âYouâre cheating. Youâre always like this.â âMmh,â he said, all smug affection. âThen maybe you should stop givinâ me reasons to be.â
You were panting now. Shallow. Soft. Embarrassingly loud in the quiet of the room. And him? That bastard looked normal. Effortless. Like he hadnât just dragged you into the devilâs personal endurance trial.
It wasnât fair.
He could control their desiresâhold them tight in that iron vice grip of his while you sat here melting like wax under a steady flame. He could talk like that, touch like that, and look like that, all without breaking a sweat.
And now?
Now you were in his lap.
Somehowâwhen did that happen?âheâd pulled you in close, casual as breathing. You were facing forward, back against his chest, and his arms were draped around your waist like you were just settling in for a nap, not squirming in a hell of your own making. His chin rested lightly on your shoulder, breath warm against your neck.
And the way he spoke?
It wasnât just teasing anymore.
âFeelin' a little warm, angel?â he murmured, voice low and syrup-slick. âCan feel you breathinâ through your skin.â
You shivered. âYouâre the one who pulled me over here.â
âMm,â he hummed, nuzzling lazily against the crook of your neck. âYou were twitchinâ so much. Thought Iâd help you settle. Thought beinâ close might calm you down.â
He knew what he was doing. He knew. Every word came out like honey laced with sin, soft and indulgent and wicked in a way that made your stomach curl.
âYou know,â he continued, tone thoughtful, hand splayed against your thigh with no movement, âI think I like you like this. All flushed and restless. Tryinâ so hard not to grind down on me.â
Your breath hitched so violently it turned into a whimper.
He smiled against your skin.
âShh, angel,â he cooed, and that handâfuckâthat hand gripped. Just for a second. Just one, solid squeeze.
You almost squealed.
He chuckled low in his chest, and you felt it rumble against your back. âSorry, that too much?â he whispered, not sorry at all.
Your face was burning.
âDonât worry, Iâm good,â he said, brushing a kiss behind your ear like it was nothing. âAinât even hard, really. Jusâ enjoyinâ myself.â
You gasped, scandalized, twisting halfway in his lap to glare at himâbut your body betrayed you, again. The twist pressed your thighs right over his, and now you were grinding down before your brain could stop it.
He sucked in a breath, sharp. His hands flexed.
âAhahâfuck this,â you breathed, and before you could think twice, you kissed him.
Hard.
Immediate.
Hungry.
You felt him freeze for a split second under you, lips parting in soft shockâand then that slow, smug grin pulled across his mouth like heâd been waiting for this exact moment. He chuckled, low and amused, and it made your heart punch against your ribs.
âWell,â he whispered against your lips, voice rough and way too pleased, âguess that means I win.â
You almost wanted to cry.
But thenâhis hands cupped your face so gently, and he kissed you again. Not greedy. Not filthy. Sweet. So sweet it tasted wrong against the haze buzzing in your skull.
What the hell? Why was thisâwhy was this sweet?
Your brain was acting like it had been put through a blender full of sugar and sin and you couldnât stop. You clutched at his hoodie, mouth dragging back to meet his again and again, needy nowâmessy, frantic, chasing the softness like itâd vanish if you let go.
And he let you.
He matched you.
Groaned softly when your lips moved fast and wet and desperate, and when your tongue slid out to taste him againâoh god, his hands gripped your hips tight, fingers digging in like he needed to ground himself.
But this wasnât him losing it.
No.
That was you.
Because the chocolateâoh, fuck, the chocolateâthis wasnât just heat anymore. It was need. It was sensation overload. It was everything good and unbearable twisted into one drugged haze that made his every sigh feel like a goddamn prayer.
And thenâ
âWhoever breaks first, loses,â you whispered against his lips.
He paused.
Then, with zero hesitation, he pushed you back onto the bed.
Soft, slow. Like laying down treasure.
And he followed, crawling over you with that same lazy ease he always carriedâbut now it was laced with hunger.
"You kissed me first,â he murmured, eyes blown wide and dark with want. âThatâs losinâ.â
You opened your mouth to argue, to sass, to anythingâbut then his hand slid up under your shirt and landed against your skin, warm and reverent, and your whole body arched.
"AhâRedactedâ!"
He leaned down, whispering against your ear, âDonât worry, angel... Iâll help you feel better.â
And when his hand moved again, slow and preciseâ
âAâAHHHâ!â
Challenge? What challenge?
You were done for.
And judging by the groan he let out when you moaned his name, shaky and brokenâ
So was he.
Your back arched, fingers tangled in the fabric of his shirt like you could anchor yourself to his bodyâlike he was the only solid thing in the world, and everything else had melted away under the heat flooding your veins.
âRedacted,â you whimpered again, and damn if he didnât flinch like it physically hit him.
His breath hitched against your neck, his lips brushing thereâsoft, barely a touch, like he was trying not to go too fast. Trying not to devour you.
"You don't get it, do you?" he whispered, his voice all frayed silk and smoke, dragging down your spine like a kiss. âAinât the chocolate makinâ me like this, angel. You walk into a room and Iâm already gone. You breathe too pretty and Iâm ready to fall apart.â
Your whole body trembled under him. It wasnât just arousalâit was too much in the best possible way. Every word, every look, every brush of his hand was lightning on your skin.
âY-youâre alreadyââ you gasped, eyes wide when you felt the pressure of him through his jeans. Holy hell. âYouâyouâre already hard?!â
He groaned, his forehead dropping to your shoulder, voice muffled but wrecked. âBeen like that since you made that first little noise. The one you tried to hide. Thought I was gonna lose my goddamn mind.â
He kissed your collarbone, then lowerâthen lower still. Soft, reverent, starving.
You couldnât take it.
âTouch me,â you gasped, voice nearly breaking.
Redacted looked up, eyes blown wide, pupils practically swallowing his irises whole. There was worship in that gaze. Like you were something unholy and beautiful all at once. Like he was scared to break you and desperate to try anyway.
âSay it again,â he murmured, dragging his knuckles up the side of your thigh. âJust like that. Câmon, angel, lemme hear you beg for it.â
You swallowed hard. âPlease. Please touch me.â
That did it.
His mouth crashed into yours again, fierce and sweet all at once, and his hands were everywhere nowâup your sides, over your hips, dragging up under your shirt like he could memorize every inch of you with his palms.
"You're shakin'," he murmured, kissing your jaw, your throat. âCanât tell if it's the chocolate or just me.â
âItâs you,â you gasped, and his growl vibrated against your skin.
"Yeah? Youâre all worked up just 'cause I'm here, huh?" he teased, but there was no cruelty in itâonly adoration, thick and hungry.
"Y-you talk so much," you managed, voice trembling.
His grin burned against your skin.
"You love it," he said, just as his hand slid down, finally, finally between your legsâhovering, not yet touching. Teasing. Waiting.
"Angel," he whispered, like a sin and a promise all in one, "I want you to come undone on me. I wanna watch every second of it. Iâll be so good to you, angel, just say the word.â
And when you gasped his name again, all desperate and wrecked and soaked in wantingâ
He moved.
And you saw stars.
His fingers slipped past the barrier of your clothes like heâd done it a hundred times in dreams heâd never dared confess toâslow, tender, practiced, knowing. Like he was reading your body like a sacred text. Like he knew exactly what page to kiss.
Your hips jolted at the first touchâwarm, soft, deepâand you choked on your breath, whimpering into his throat. It wasnât just that he was touching youâit was how. Gentle, reverent, maddeningly slow.
âShhh,â he cooed against your ear, voice thick with affection and something darker. âYouâre beinâ so good, baby. So damn pretty for me.â
And thenâfuckâhis mouth was on your ear. Hot breath ghosting over the shell, and then his tongue. He licked the curve of it, slow and deliberate, and your whole body bucked beneath him like you couldnât stand the contact.
You whined, openly now, your voice cracking from the sheer pleasure slicing up your spine.
âSensitive here, huh?â he murmured, then sucked on your earlobe just to make you cry out again. âIâll remember that.â
His fingers moved in perfect rhythmâeach stroke deeper, smoother, more devastating than the last. He never once looked away from you. Eyes hooded, half-lidded, drunk on your reactions. Like every shudder and gasp you gave him was the only thing that mattered.
âYou gonna fall apart for me?â he whispered, mouth brushing yours again. âCâmon, angel. Wanna feel you break. Wanna see what you sound like when I make you lose your fuckin' mind.â
You were already close. Too close. Everything felt hot and full and unreal. Like the chocolate, the challenge, the restraintâit had all been a trap, and youâd walked right into it, needy and aching and so ready to lose.
His voice dropped lower, a tease and a vow all in one.
âLet me have you. Let me ruin you soft.â
And stars werenât enough anymore. You were seeing constellations.
