Oh, old horror movies. Where the REAL suspense is not "will the church organist will join the demonic carnival?" but rather "do the writers of this film REALLY expect me to believe that this incredibly pushy romantic interest is actually charming and somehow a better choice than a rad-as-hell demon carnival???"
The answer is almost certainly yes, of course. They probably ALSO want me to be more creeped out by carnival music than church organ sounds, but lemme tell ya church music is CREEPY.
Anyway, alls I know is if the choice was "exist as a woman employed by a church in the 60s" and "oh shit I think maybe I DIDN'T survive falling off that bridge," then you know I am already at that death carnival having gay sex idk what to tell you.

Mister grumpy chicken
Rooster x Wife reader & baby Nick
Warnings: you’re having a fight, very tired parents, will get fluffy
Enjoy!
***
It was one those days, or rather weeks. Nick hasn’t been sleeping well for over a week, due to teething, a growth spurt and he learned something new. The first night Bradley was still home but just as most nights he didn’t hear Nick crying, so it came all down on you and as of the next day he stayed at base for the rest of the week due to training. If you got lucky you got 4 hours of sleep in total. Once you held Nick in your arms he calmed down quickly, but getting him back in his bed was not that easy and before you knew it your alarm went off, again. This was your whole workweek, getting up early to take Nick to daycare, going to work, rushing back to daycare, taking Nick to the supermarket with you, getting back home to feed Nick, doing the laundry and trying to play with Nick in between, bathing him every other day, putting him in bed, cooking food for yourself if you didn’t forget, taking the laundry out of the washing machine, clear away Nick’s toys which are shattered all over the floor and by that time it was also time for you to get in bed. And the next day it was the same all over again, since some coworkers called in sick, you drowned in work and didn’t even have the time for some small talk at work.
You didn’t know how you managed to survive this hell week, but you sure looked and felt like a zombie. And just like that it was Friday, you didn’t work on Fridays so could take care of Nick since daycare was pretty expensive. Even though Nick had been playing well and had slept a bit, he started getting fuzzy knowing his dad would get home today. But as it eventually got 5 pm, Bradley still wasn’t home, so you send him a text with a picture of Nick saying he misses his dad.
After putting Nick to sleep at 7 pm, you finally heard the front door open when you almost felt asleep on the couch.
“Bradley, babe?” You got no answer as he walked right past you straight to the bathroom. With all your heart you wanted to join him, but you had no energy left so you dragged yourself to the bedroom letting yourself fall on the bed, still wearing your clothes. 
You got waken abruptly by getting poked in your side. “Nick’s awake, you go, I’m tired.” Bradley mumbled, you lifted your head up to look at your alarm clock, 20:25, time hadn't really passed and you were still wearing your jeans. 
“Bradley, can’t you please check on him for once, I apparently still need to change, and I haven’t slept we-“ before you got the chance to end you sentence, Bradley interrupted. “I’m the one who has been working hard this week and we had night flights, so believe me I am the one who’s tired! I’m gonna sleep on base, at least it’s quiet there!” He almost screamed at you, hearing his daddy yell resulted in Nick crying even harder.
“Bradley, please stay, Nick…” You tried to reason him with tears rolling down you face, but he had already taken his bag and left. “I can’t do this alone” you whispered to yourself.
You were able to calm Nick down for a minute, but he felt you were tense and started wiggling and whining in your arms. You didn’t want to bother anyone, but for both your and Nick’s sake you needed someone to help you out.
“Please, pick up” you whispered in the phone with tears falling down on your cheeks.
“Y/N? Hey! How’s everyt-” 
“Nat, can you please come over?” You interrupted her, “I can’t do it, Bradley… and Nick’s been having a hard time. Ssshhhh Nick, everything will be alright.” You sobbed and tried to coo Nick at the same time.
“Oh sweetheart, I’m on my way, tell me what happened.” As Natasha kept the line open during her ride over, you were able to tell her what happened. It felt good, finally able to talk to someone, so good that she arrived earlier than you expected.
“Woah, girl you look like shit.”
“Thanks," it was a complement compared to how you felt "can you take Nick over for a minute?” You asked while handing him over.
“Yes of course, I’ll try putting him in bed, you go take a shower, I think you might need one.” She was right, the hot water helped your muscles finally relax and for the first time this week and your head was just empty, no thoughts, no worries, just the sound of water.
When you got back to your bedroom to put your clothes away, Natasha joined you. 
“I called Jake, he was busy chasing a nurse, so he’s still on base, Bradley arrived safely and was one ray of sunshine, I’m sorry, I don’t know what’s the matter with him today, but Jake’s gonna kick his ass in the morning.” She smiled. 
“Nat, you’re one hell of friend, I’m so thankful you took me in as part of that big idiot family.”
“Hey, I’m the one who’s thankful, now I’m not the only girl anymore.” She said while hugging you, as you melted in her hug, she noticed your loneliness. “Do you want me to stay?” You nodded. “I don’t think mister grumpy chicken will mind that I take his place for the night.”
“Mister grumpy chicken” this was the first time this week you genuinely laughed. “I’m gonna change his name in my contacts to that. And I’m in for a girls-only sleepover, and Nick of course.” It was the first time this week that Nick has finally slept through the night, so did you. When you woke up and saw it was already 9 am, you hysterically ran to Nick’s room to find it empty, relieve washed over you when you heard his little squeals echo from the living room.
“I think a good night of sleep did wonders to the two of you, you look a lot better. Nick’s already been fed and playing like his life depends on it.”
“Thanks Nat. You’re the best!” You ran over to hear to give her a big, warm hug and immediately got interrupted by a giggling Nick. “Good morning to you too, come here.” You said while picking him up. “Nat, did you… did you hear something from Bradley?”
“Oh yes, Jake has had some fun already, he bunked with Bradley on base and Bradley is really regretting yesterday. He’s expecting you at the beach. Nick stays with me, we still have a lot to discuss, ain’t that right Nick?” You heard Nick answer with one of his cute “bababababa’s” “See, we’ll be okay? Would you mind if Bob came over? He misses this little goofball too.”
“No problem, I think Nick would love it, he adores uncle Bob.”
Since it was not that warm anymore, you put on jeans that hugged your waist nicely, a cute top and one of Bradley’s sweaters. When you arrived at the beach you got a text from Bradley where to meet him. Instantly your face lit up when you saw his new screen you had given him yesterday evening.
Grumpy chicken: look up and you’ll see me
When you looked at the beach, you couldn’t miss him. There he stood with a bouquet of red roses in one hand and a couple of fluffy blankets in the other one. Seeing him like this you got flooded with memories from the time you met him, feeling the butterflies all over again.
“Hi baby.” You said while joining him. He quickly kissed you, letting you know everything was alright now.
“Hi sweetie, I’m so sorry I was selfish yesterday. I, uh, got you these.” He said while he gave the roses.
“Thank you, but I rather have one of those” while pointing at the fluffy blankets “and you to join me.”
“Oh my god, sorry, forgot, come here. You look good in my sweater.” You joined him on the sand, getting wrapped up together in one of the blankets, mumbling a small ‘thanks’. It felt nice, your body touching his, nuzzling your head in his neck, feeling his arm wrap around your shoulder, getting warm inside just from being with each other. 
“I’m sor-” “Shhh” you interrupted him. “Let’s just enjoy this.” You took his right hand that was wrapped around your shoulder in you right so your rings would touch. He got the message and kissed the top of your head, the two of you staying silent like this for a while enjoying each other’s presence and the sound of the waves, forgetting what happened yesterday.
“Can I still apologise?”
“Yeah now is okay.”
“I’m really sorry for my behaviour sweetie. You sacrificed already so much for us and I was just a dick to you, sorry I didn’t look at you and noticed how you were, Jake told me after Phoenix called this morning, he made me regret it with a cold water alarm.”
“You kinda deserved that,” you tried to imagine Hangman living his best life by doing such stunts, “it’s okay now, I should have let you know how bad the week has been, maybe we should get a babysitter more often so we can have some more us-time. We still need to learn, but that’s part of being parents now.”
“I’m so lucky with you, I love you.”
“I love you too.”
You felt your phone go off, receiving an update from Phoenix and Bob. “Must be Nat.” You said while taking your phone, just then remembering you hadn’t opened your text from Bradley so it was sill visible on your lock screen.
“Who’s grumpy chicken?” You couldn’t help but giggle at the memory last night.
“You, you’re my grumpy chicken.”
“Seeing it makes you smile, I don’t mind it.”

Who are the ballad brothers I have seen you tag them on a variety of posts and I am intrigued
THREE MONTHS LATE BUT HERE WE GO!!! I also did a post about this ages ago which I’ll link HERE but! There’s been a lot of development since then!!!
This is going to get long. Sorry in advance. (Also I’m keeping it to just the Ballad Brothers themselves (and co) but lmk if you also want to know about the saints! They’re not at all relevant to the main plot (two and a half exceptions) but they live rent free in my head)
TLDR. Little guys took up residence in my head when I listened to music in the car and it’s become a whole scifantasy worldbuilding exercise.
Anyway!
KYRIE ALEIDIS BALLAD
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- she/her
- 29 years old
- 5’11 (and a half)
- Massive Fucking Tech Sword
- Enneagram 8w7 if you’re an enneagram guy
- she is YOUNG she’s FANTASTIC she’s GOD’S FAVORITE and she’s NEVER GOING TO DIE
- The main character!
- She is the city (symbolic) and her name is god
- Former sword-for-hire/star player/golden girl/mascot/diversity hire (whatever you want to call it) for evil organization(tm) Rekah’s Finest
- (named after St Rekah of the Guard)(think somewhere between the CIA and the Pinkertons)(National guard type of thing that staged a very quiet coup/government takeover about a decade before Kyrie was born and is gradually got to the point where they’re running the city-state where this all takes place as a police state)
- current renegade and aspiring vigilante
- she fucked off the minute she turned 18 to join the metaphorical army/become a cop (same difference)(except there’s also regular cops and they kind of suck shit) and very quickly became very good at it!
- wound up as essentially the Special Little Guy they have as the face of the organization doing a lot of like. Public outreach and shit. Also doing a lot of assassinations inside and outside of the city
- A few years before the story starts she Realized Some Things about how her and Alonzo were orphaned and quit her job EXTREMELY publicly and extremely dramatically and left with nothing but her Massive Fucking Tech Sword and the clothes on her back and fucked off to go hide/live in a massive tower monument at the center of town
- It’s… legally difficult to get her out of there due to the historical site preservation regulations so she’s just been kind of vibing there ever since
- Theoretically. She’s trying to take down the RF and get them Out Of Her Damn City
- In practice she’s one singular burnout and has no idea how the hell to go about doing that so she’s mostly just hanging out in the tower and evading arrest
- She’s a fuck boy dirt bag piece of shit (etc etc etc) and I love her for it
- She gets no bitches despite being a local celebrity with one of The Fanbases Ever (she would do numbers on scifantasy Twitter) bc She’s So Sucks <3
- (no bitches except she does have a weird homoerotic thing going w her roommate/childhood best friend who’s kind of a reincarnation of St Ely who built the city and lives in the tower)(she’s not looking at it)(she’s got bigger problems called Avoiding Confronting Any Emotion bc if she looks at any of them she’ll have to process all of the Guilt she has irt. Pretty much abandoning her baby brother on the streets to go be a hero and then Never Contacting Him Again)
ALONZO BALLAD
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- he/him
- 25
- 5’4
- two regular guns
- Kyrie’s aforementioned baby brother!
- Enneagram 3w4 which if you were friends w me 2019-2021 you’ll know exactly how much that says everything you need to know about this guy (derogatory)
- Most repressed mfer on the planet and a neurotic little freak
- Considers himself to be the only guy in this found family with a braincell. (Untrue, even if you don’t count An)
- His first instinct in a lot of situations is Improv Theater. (Seeing his sister for the first time in more than ten years? Better wear a hood and prepare a whole dramatic reveal about it. Ran into the guy he kissed at the office holiday party while trying to get his expense account wrangled for an upcoming assignment? Time to launch into an extended bit about how he’s so sad and poor and he’s gonna starve and freeze to death all alone on the street and Only They have the power to help him. please.)(they think it’s hilarious but jfc what’s wrong with him)
- The main issue with him is that he gets his apartment and all of his necessities directly from his employer, so his first priority at all times is Preserve His Job At All Costs
- He thinks of the way he lives as self care. I think of it as masochism.
- His main idea of a Life Plan from the ages of 15-his early 20s was Look At What His Older Sister Did And Then Do It Too
- (his main idea of a life plan from the ages of 3-20 was Don’t Get In Trouble Ever or They Will Come And Kill You To Death)(these are not especially compatible philosophies.)
- So he’s a sword-for-hire (gun for hire. And not even a fancy tech one. They’re not trusting any more Ballad brothers with any more expensive technology.)
- This is not working out well for him. he’s not overwhelmingly good at the job. He doesn’t find any purpose in killing people. He doesn’t even like blood.
- He is, however, very good at following orders. But only when he wants to.
- He’s also very good at Lying To His Boss’s Boss
- They keep sending him to try and assassinate Kyrie as like. Kind of a power move? Trying to show her that they’ve got her only family at their beck and call and they can make him do whatever they want
- Unfortunately Alonzo has no interest in killing her so those missions pretty much just wind up with him going to hang out in the tower and shoot shit for a couple days and then going back and turning on the big sad wet eyes for his report to tell them that he did his best he really did but she’s always been stronger and he just couldn’t take her— but he’ll do better next time he promises 🥺🥺🥺
- Kyrie had been their best guy for several years and Alonzo is, in all other regards, the perfect employee (turns in all his paperwork ahead of time, does every other mission very efficiently and never gets caught, goes to all the company mixers even though everyone can tell he’s exhausted, always has his uniform meticulously clean and pressed) so this is plausible, and they go “aww okay better luck next time :) go get some rest :)”
- Also he’s lowkey a hostage here. What are they gonna do? Fire him? No they need him for leverage
- It drives his immediate supervisor who knows EXACTLY what’s going on up the fucking wall. We will get to them.
- Gets Fucking Shot With A Cheater Bullet (very small timed action grenade) on an assignment midway through the story and his first instinct (instead of going back to the office where they have like. Actual doctors and medical equipment to deal with that) is to head to St Ely’s tower, where they have his sister and his kind of boyfriend and also his sister’s roommate who can sew and his childhood buddy Jonesie down the street who knows first aid
- He’s not thinking especially straight due to the Panic and also the Blood Loss from the Bullet In His Ribcage and he’s got a whole emotional thing about how he wants to die at home w his people— and then it goes off and he Fucking Dies. Whoops!
- He gets better his boyfriend (for real now lmao) is an aspiring necromancer and God’s Pet Freak (there’s a lot. Behind that. more later) and he very pointedly doesn’t believe in magic or saints or anything but also his chest cavity did very much get exploded and he’s fine now (besides the lingering Effects) so like.
- He deals with this by 1. Contacting his supervisor who lets the higher ups know there’s been An Incident. 2. Going back to work as soon as they’ll let him (like three days later). and 3. Getting himself transferred to the security division and becoming Ari’s dad’s bodyguard so he doesn’t have an excuse to go hang out at the tower anymore and he doesn’t have to look at any of those emotions he can just Focus on his Work <3
- Obviously that does not go well for him.
SENECA “ARI” FINCH
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- they/them/any
- 25
- 5’2
- Enneagram 5w6
- Mad scientist
- Nepo baby
- Front desk intern for the RF financial department
- Aspiring necromancer
- God’s Pet Freak
- If you’ve ever wondered what happens when you raise a child in one of those beige instagrammable influencer houses. It’s this.
- Their dad is the puppet city governor for the RF (Kyrie wants him dead so goddamn bad)(he’s kind of a useless twink but he’s an easy guy to blame for all this shit)
- Their mom died when they were like 8 of something pretty regular and they have since dedicated pretty much their entire life to Bringing Her Back
- (No they were not especially close or anything why do you ask?)
- TECHNICALLY their dad, knowing their passion for Science (and not much else about them) got them a cushy RF job developing biotech to make the cool individualized tech weapons
- In practice, they got their funding and their fancy work lab and immediately proceeded to squirrel just about everything useful from it downstairs to their own personal lab in the basement (not on the floor plan) where they don’t have to worry about things like “supervision” “safety regulations” “proper ventilation” “their job” etc
- They are still doing their job but they’re getting it done in like. Two days out of the month and spending literally all the rest of their time on the necromancy
- It’s gotten to the point where they’re not even clocking in upstairs anymore so they made them take a couple shifts a week at the front desk of the financial department just so they have something on record to pay them for
- They’re okay with this! it’s fun to switch it up and there’s snacks in the breakroom
- I cannot emphasize enough how much they Do Not Leave the horrifying unventilated unethical science basement. there’s a couch in the corner and a sink and an employee bathroom in the stairwell what more could they need.
- One of the early plotlines is centered around Getting Them To Go Outside (really outside, not just to the regular parts of the RF building) and like. Idk. Maybe seeing a leaf or smth would be good for them)
- where they also wind up meeting and hanging out w Kyrie and El, doing some upkeep on Kyrie’s fancy sword, and being Absolutely Fascinated by St Ely’s Tower (there’s some generally buried Magic Shit that perks up when them and El are in the room together)
- BECAUSE!!! (And this is why they haven’t succumbed to the Fumes in the horrifying unventilated unethical science basement, or the gas leak in there from the pipe main running through the middle of it that they’ve been siphoning off of, or any of the experiments they do on themself bc they can’t get any other test subjects and also bc they wouldn’t trust anyone else’s testimony as to What It’s Like) the magic, which is how Ely built the city (and how all of the other saints Did Their Things as well but that’s a whole other can of worms) is a vapor that lives underground and speaks no human language but saw this little freak trying to defy the laws of nature from their hole in the ground and took a liking to them
- It can’t bring their mom back bc she’s been dead for fifteen years and it never met her so it wouldn’t even know where to start
- But it likes them! It follows them around and keeps them alive and helps with their experiments :)
- (they remind it of Saint Ely, who was a similarly tiny passionate freak, but that’s also a whole other can of worms)
- Ari is not aware of this in the slightest.
- Their second arc is getting Disappeared from legal existence (very easy. They live in a basement and barely ever leave it and don’t really talk to people), realizing that they are in fact mortal and could potentially die someday, and trying to contact their dad to make sure he knows they’re okay. (Doesn’t work. They’ve been disappeared and are no longer allowed past the front desk.)
- Their third arc (during the communal breakdown era. Kyrie’s abandoned by god arc where she decides to run away from her problems in a literal sense and Alonzo’s evil arc where stops speaking to everybody and dives headfirst into his job at the war crimes factory) is deciding that the same thing happened to their mom and the necromancy isn’t working because she’s NOT actually dead which means she’s out there somewhere and they can find her! :)
- That is not even a little bit true. :(
EL (no last name)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- he/him (woman)
- Doesn’t really have an age. They don’t really exist in time in the usual sense
- 5’0
- Enneagram 9w1
- Lives in the tower
- Just kind of showed up there one day as a kid and has been living there ever since
- There’s a nearby convent of some kind that fed and clothed them growing up (same place that looked after Kyrie and Alonzo after they were orphaned)
- Kind of a reincarnation of Saint Ely. not in so many steps bc again. Out of time and who knows how long he’s been there but like. He’s back for more but he’s a lady with an ounce of common sense this time. It’s unclear how much he’s aware of this part of it. He knows the tower is important, and he knows restoring the murals inside of it is important. I don’t think he knows why.
- only guy in this found family who’s even remotely capable of coping with the idea of death (he already did that)(kind of psychopomp coded about it)
- Kyrie’s best friend and second in command so much as she has a command. Weird homoerotic gay thing going on there. I assume there’s some of the traditional St Ely brand of devotion but like
- (And by traditional I mean I don’t think that’s a widely known thing about Ely the Saint but it is one of the more prominent things about Ely the Guy)
- Spends most of his time restoring the tower and the murals inside that nobody has seen in years
- (That’s a whole thing)(different can of worms)
- This is @nosongunsung11’s guy so I’ll tap them in for the details but I think that’s the basics!!
AN “PUNK” JANG
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- they/them (lesbian)(in gender moreso than practice)
- 35 but they’re lying about it. actually 33
- 5’5
- Enneagram 1w2 😬
- Twin fancy tech rapiers
- The previous Special Little Guy/Mascot/face of the RF
- Ran away from home, changed their name, and lied about their age to join up when they were 16 and they’ve just kind of been going off that ever since
- Went by Punk for a while towards the beginning of their career bc they were 16/17 and it Sounded Cool and it would up becoming almost like their callsign (that’s what Alonzo calls them bc he was very much an enjoyer when he was a kid. They were like Spider-Man to him. Blorbo from the news.)(and he continues to call them that bc he’s a little shit.)
- (They wound up naming themselves after Saint Anjane of Strength not because they believe in any saints but because they desperately wish they did and this way at least they can pretend they know what it might feel like to have that kind of faith.)(in a fun and funky coincidence, they’re actually very very similar to Saint Anjane herself. El has some Complicated Emotions about this.)(long story. It’s Saint Ely’s Monument but it’s also the closest thing he has to a grave— he pulled it out of the ground so he could be alone w/ Anje’s body after he got to her execution too late to talk her out of it)
- Got shunted when Kyrie showed up and was infinitely more personable due to her heroics in SciFantasy 9/11 (long story. Building exploded.) and general bright-eyed and bushy tailed unjaded Disposition
- And by shunted I mean promoted to middle management in the Murder Department
- They’re fine with this it’s significantly less work on their end
- They do make sure after that to have everything they need for basic living separated from the job though
- Only guy in this found family with their own actual apartment. And basic cooking skills. And healthy sleep schedule.
- When Alonzo gets into the Murder Department they wind up as his immediate supervisor!
- Exciting prospect at first! He’s a high profile assignment (hostage) and also an easy assignment (does all of his paperwork on time, completes his missions Quietly and Efficiently, doesn’t really do anything interesting at all)
- Less exciting prospect once they actually work with him. He’s a little shit and a motherfucker and he knows exactly what he’s doing
- They can’t stop covering for him at this point without doing a hell of a lot of paperwork and jeopardizing their own job so they’re stuck now
- Also. unfortunately. they got attached. They’re not the step-older sibling, they’re the older sibling who stepped up.
- They’re the one who arrests Kyrie at the beginning of the story and kick off the whole first half of the plot, but they also wind up putting in their two weeks after Alonzo Gets Fucking Killed and then immediately goes back to work
- They do it significantly better than Kyrie tho they keep their apartment and their bank account and return most of their uniforms so the rf doesn’t have any reason to come after them besides Aiding and Abetting (and also trespassing. On the protected historical site that is St Ely’s monument. But that’s the least of anyone’s worries here.)
- They wind up kind of taking charge of the. whatever the hell these guys are doing. during the Communal Breakdowns arc. they would really prefer not to be doing this but somebody has to. So.
- Also during that arc they wind up facing off with Alonzo and boy howdy is there a reason they got assigned as the rf’s Special Little Guy and he didn’t, bc he doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell even with them holding back
AND THAT’S THE MAIN CAST! Thank you for coming to my ted talk! (Get it?) I’ve hit the image limit on mobile so I’ll come back and add the before/after pictures in a reblog bc I had fun making those

Chapter 25: The Girl's Evening Out
Tumblr media
Sleep is an emotional reset. I don’t feel as bumped as yesterday. It’s easier to think of something else. And, when I remember that I have some venison to sell from yesterday, I grab my stuff and go.
Despite of what I’ve heard, I don’t see anyone actively searching for someone. Anyone. The streets of Hell are as they were before. Which isn’t necessarily a relief.
Half a day I hunt, keeping my mind empty of remorse. The other half I sell todays and yesterday’s meat. I save a wild boar for the hotel, keeping Charlie’s sweet smile in my mind. 
When I return to the hotel, I find Angel on the verge of leaving. Well, as quickly as he can be when he’s flirting with Husk. The latter one looks seriously like he wants to kill the spider demon.
“What are you doing, Angel?” I ask him jovial.
“Hi, Elsa!” he turns to me. I see my nickname stuck. “D’you wanna join me, Charlie, Vaggie, and Cherri?”
“Where?”
“A girl’s night - I mean an evening out,” he smiles.
“Plus you,” I point out.
“Plus me,” he winks. 
“I suppose I don’t have anything else to do...” I look around me for the effect. I see a couple of sinners near the fireplace, testing it with different substances. After one tiny explosion, I decide on going as fast as possible. “Yeah, let’s go!” After one moment, though, I remember Niffty. “Wait! Isn’t Niffty going to join us?”
“She’s too young!” Angel waves his hand. “Let her entertain Husky here!”
Husk mutters something while Angel offers his arm to me like a merry girl.
I offer my arm instead and he simply takes it. We exit the hotel to see Charlie and Vaggie, arm in arm. Looking different than usual.
“Diana!” Charlie comes to hug me. Awkwardly still, I pat her back until she releases me. “I’ve wanted to invite you myself, but I couldn’t find you!”
“Lucky me I’ve stumbled upon Angel,” I smile at the spider. 
“When’s Cherri coming?” Vaggie asks Angel without emotion.
“She’ll meet us there,” Angel simply says.
“Is this a sane idea?” Vaggie means to whisper to Charlie, but we all hear her. “Leaving everyone without any supervision? I hope we won’t find the hotel burnt down.”
A burning corpse flashes before my eyes.
“Relax, Vaggie,” Charlie embraces her. “I left Al a note. Also, we’re returning for dinner.”
We start strolling on the streets of Hell in two pairs. I watch the girls whispering sweetly at each other.
“So, tell me, toots,” Angel asks me. “Are ya considerin’ an acting career?”
I catch Vaggie’s healthy eye glimpse at me for a second. I don’t know what to make of it.
“Ha ha, very funny, Angel,” I almost whisper.
“No, seriously! That play was the right thing at the right time! It made my day.”
“Then I’m happy you’ve relished my suffering,” I mumble.
“It was predisposed to be boring, to be honest. Shakespeare? Why? But ya made it... Laughable! I have the video! D’you wanna watch it?”          
“God, no!” I cut him short.
“Suit yaself!” he closes his eyes.
We talk and walk for the next five minutes until we reach a hair salon. Cherri waits for us in front of it.
“Angie! Elsa!” she greets us loudly. “Took ya long enough!”
“Sorry, tits! You tryna win over Husky!” Angel half excuses himself.
“Fortunately for me, I choose better than you.” Then she blinks sweetly at me and whispers in a seductive way: “So, Diana, how you doin’?”
“Ha! No chance,” I chuckle. 
“You were sayin’...?” Angel smirks.
“Are we goin’ in or what?” Vaggie speaks out impatiently. She’s been watching us in annoyance. Charlie caresses her arm in an effort to soothe her.
“Tell me again, Vagina,” Angel rolls his eyes. “Why d’you wanna come in the first place?”
“It’s a girl’s evening, Angel,” Charlie reminds him.
“Plus Angel,” Vaggie points out.
“Plus Angel,” Charlie repeats.
“Let’s go, then!” Cherri nudges us. 
I don’t get why we are in a hair salon in the first place until I find out that it is a tattoo and piercing salon as well.
“Who’s getting tattoos?” I ask curiously.
“Me and Vaggie!” Charlie jumps excitedly. 
“And me,” Cherri adds.
We all turn to Angel, who shakes his head.
“Uhm, hello? This body is flawless!”
“And already full of pink stripes,” Vaggie points out.
“No one asked ya to look, Vags,” Angel hisses.
Cherri laughs while Vaggie only frowns at Angel.
“What are you going to get?” I ask Charlie and Vaggie.
“Oh, nothing...!” Charlie waves her hand. “Only a pair of tattoos to symbolize our eternal and infinite love for each other!”
“No biggie, in short words,” Angel rolls his eyes.
Vaggie sends him daggers from her eyes. I notice Cherri’s absence and look for her, only to find her seated already.
We start spreading throughout the salon. Charlie and Vaggie sit next to each other, while Cherri’s done with her bomb tattoo and goes for a new ear piercing. Angel’s satisfied with a new haircut.
“Angie!” Cherri screams from the other side of the salon. “You look so funny with curls!!!”
“Fear not, bestie, for not everyone can handle this level of fabulousness!”
I snort amused and lean on his chair.
“I think you look kinda cute,” I whisper to him.
“Whatcha doin’?” he looks at me in the mirror.
“Now? Nothing.”
“No, toots!” he chuckles. “Whatcha tryin’ here?”
I’ve thought about that. I’ve conceded there was no way everyone was going to ignore the fact that I haven’t tried anything. But I don’t want to make holes in my skin for no reason. And I’m not too fond of tattoos. I’ve got plenty already.
“I suppose I’ll try something with my hair as well.”
I sit on a chair in front of a mirror, studying my appearance. My color palette is mostly gray, black, and blue from my eyelids and irises. The only out-of-the-place aspect is my hair. The same one I had when I was alive. 
“What do you want with your hair, sweetheart?” a succubi demon asks from my behind.
I’m not the same girl I was. I’m a demon, a sinner in Hell. Why keep something so inconsequential as my hair color to keep lying to myself that I don’t belong here?
“I want it black,” I declare.
“You sure?” she questions my choice, irritating me. “Black black would contrast with your pale-gray skin in a nasty way.”
“Then, what do you suggest?” I ask ironically.
Either she hasn’t caught the sarcasm or ignores it. She simply resumes: “You have a nice thing going on with the wolf thing. And the eyes are majestic! I’d suggest something that would highlight them. Like platinum white?”
A flashback turns my mirror reflection into the young girl I was. At my father’s parties, there were awfully lots of guests who looked at me, then at my father, and then asked me where my mother was from. I always kept answering that she was from France and she lived there for all of her life, as well as her parents until she moved to Scotland with my father. But they always were skeptical. 
It annoyed me a lot. 
Then, there were these maids that sometimes would exaggerate in dressing me in light colors that wouldn’t advantage me at all just to illustrate the perfect daughter of a perfect father. 
Bright colors and especially white became a symbol of everything I should be and I am not. It was a lie that became a truth to hide the dark secrets that lay in me and my family. 
“No white,” I reject.
The succubi look thoughtful for several seconds, playing with my hair, until her face brightens with an idea: “What about a dark blue? Dark navy? It would match your make-up!”
“I don’t do make-up,” I tell her. 
“You don’t?” she looks at my eyelids. “Then...” She means to brush them, but I slap her hand.
“Ok. Dark navy it is.”
She squeals excitedly and begins to work.
After a quarter of an hour, I stare at someone resembling a sad poltergeist. I like it.
“Nice one, Elsa!” Angel winks. I look at him on my left. He’s a beauty.
“You’re one to talk,” I laugh shyly. Then I stand up and go to Charlie and Vaggie. They look at each other’s shoulders enchanted. Charlie has a small purple moth and Vaggie has a small red apple. 
“They’re lovely,” I compliment them.
“They’re perfect!” Charlie trembles with energy. Vaggie is not far from it.
We all turn to see Cherri, who catwalks to us, showing off her biceps with the bomb tattoo.
“That’s fire!” Angel’s eyes shine.
“Wait for it!” Cherri stops him.
She takes her hair out of her face to exhibit her three new earrings. They’re positioned at the same distance on the earlobe.
“Oh, my Satan! I’m gonna faint!” Angel puts his hand on his forehead.
We all laugh and walk out of the salon. 
“It suits you,” Charlie winks and I smile warmly.
We leave Cherri on our way to the hotel. I watch her jumping on the buildings as if they are trampolines. 
We arrive at the hotel, only for an amazing smell to greet us. Husk has disappeared in the meantime, probably to dinner. We enter the dining room together and see the other three in the middle of what looked like a spat between the bartender and the overlord.
“At long last, you’ve made your grand entrance!” Alastor tilts his head, ignoring Husk’s interior blast. “I fretted that our supper would grow frigid whilst awaiting thy arrival!”
He looks my way for a brief moment, either to regard my newest appearance or to mock me. I ignore him, taking my seat next to Angel.
“Sorry, Al!” Charlie sits at the head of the table. “We had a girls’ night - evening out! I’m sure you can understand!” she laughs.
“A girls’ night out?” a foreign voice speaks. We all turn to the other head of the table, where a stylish, jaguar demon poses like a model. “Without moi?”

Gravita Anima (part 25)
Nightcrawler/Fem!OC/Quicksilver Long-form romance and drama fic. All chapters have been posted on Ao3.
Intro (with link to Ao3 story) First Previous
Pietro typically had something going on on Friday nights. Actually, he had things going on every night of the week. This time, however, he would be doing things with just one person -- Elle. The recollection of the tour guide made Quicksilver smile. He had put up with Pyro’s and Azazel’s teasing for the week -- at least Azazel was discreet enough to only make faces -- about how attentive he had been. He had dined at several expensive steakhouses around the D.C. area -- Mastro’s Steakhouse, Bourbon Steak, Rare Steakhouse and Tavern, and 1789 Restaurant and Bar. He found they were all quite nice in their own way, expensive as well (not that he paid for his, ah, taste tests), but the feeling wasn’t quite right in them except in one. 
He had obtained Elle’s attention last week and now he needed to keep it. If he could charm her, have her enjoy his company, she would be easier to join and enjoy the Brotherhood’s company. Well, except Toad, but no one liked Toad.
Pietro wore a dark blue, fitted suit without a tie. It was a mixture of formal and casual. He made sure his hair was good, his clothes were sharp, and that he had a wallet of hundred-dollar bills. Tonight, he would pay for dinner...with money, he stole from the bank. But that was a detail Elle didn’t need to know about.
As he was about to make his way out, shutting and locking his bedroom -- it was clean, truly clean this time with nothing in the closet, in case Elle wanted to come back -- there was a movement to his right. He turned and almost jumped when something flew at him. He caught it and blinked. “The hell…?” They were flowers, a dozen red roses.
Emma Frost stood there, her hands on her barely-covered hips. She had tossed him the flowers. “A girl likes to be wined and dined with class.” The message behind the words was clear: don’t fuck it up.
Quicksilver snorted and ran his fingers through his hair. “Believe it or not Frost, I do know my way around a woman. But uh...thanks, one less pitstop to make.” He smirked.
Emma’s eyes bore into his until he shifted, uncomfortable. He couldn’t tell if she was in his mind or not. Finally, she smiled. “Like Father, Like Son.” And with that disturbing sentiment, Emma walked off, leaving Quicksilver’s eye to twitch.
Nope, he wasn’t going to think about that. Not now. Not later. Never. He adjusted the plastic protective film around the flowers and left before anyone else could bother him. Within a couple of minutes, he arrived at Elle’s apartment. He glanced around, then up. The streets were quiet enough. He wondered if she was home yet. Well, no time like the present to find out. He ran up to the door and knocked three sharp raps, pausing to adjust the flowers and to ensure they weren’t damaged from his sprint.
~~~
Pietro had never shown up at the tour. Honestly, Elle didn’t mind but it meant she had brought a change of clothes to work for no reason. Perhaps he was in a different time zone and had forgotten to use East Coast time. Still, when Pietro didn’t show up by the end of the tour Elle left for home. She would text him while she was getting changed. Though she vaguely wondered if he had gotten into trouble and been captured.
Back at her apartment, having taken a quick shower to clean herself, Elle was picking up her phone to text Pietro and ask where he was when there was a sharp knock on the door. Going over to the peephole she peered out. There he was. Looking very fine in a dark blue suit, hair slicked back, and with a confident smile.
“You were supposed to come to the last tour,” she reminded him through the door. “Hold on, I am not appropriately dressed and I don’t want you getting distracted.”
Pietro felt a bit of disappointment at not being able to see her ‘not appropriately dressed’. Really, did it matter given what they had done just a week ago? The memory made him smirk and feel his blood threaten to travel south. He refocused on her words. Ah, the tour, yes...well. He thought back to what he had been doing the past three hours -- breaking into a Senator’s home for blackmail purposes and then recruiting some mutants -- but perhaps that would be wise to keep secret. 
Leaving him waiting outside Elle went back into her bedroom. Taking her time Elle put on her dress. Now, Elle did not often wear dresses so she had gotten this one, especially for this date. It was a deep bottle green that matched her eyes and, more importantly, matched the outfit that he had worn before while working with the Brotherhood. The dress fell off her shoulders, hugged her waist, and flowed around her hips stopping just below her knees.
With the dress on, she returned to the door. “I still need to finish getting ready but you can wait on the couch,” Elle told him as she opened the door.
When she opened the door, Pietro stared. The dress flattered and emphasized her best features, making her eyes even seem a bit brighter. His eyes went up and down her body although he wished it were his hands. “That’s beautiful.” He said honestly. Then he snapped to and held up the flowers. “Had I known that these would pale in comparison to you, I would have brought chocolate instead.” He winked. “Forgive me?”
Elle smiled broadly at his words. The dress had the intended effect, excellent. Taking the flowers she held them up to her face and breathed in. They smelt lovely. Looking up at Pietro her smile became sweeter. “I forgive you…milk chocolate for future reference.”
Walking away from the door and letting him enter Elle carried the bouquet with her into the kitchen and placed it on the counter. They were long-stemmed and would need to be cut for the vase. “I’ll be half an hour at the most,” she told him. “Don’t get into trouble.”
Quicksilver chuckled at her wise words. He would remember that. He shut the door behind him as he walked in. He glanced around slowly, taking in every detail. Books on the table, plants on the table, and general cleanliness. He spotted some pictures on the wall and wondered if they were of people she knew or of places she had been. He perused the apartment leisurely, only half-attentive. The plant he spotted on the table had some red to it, which looked distinct. “Hm.” He walked over to the window. “Nice view.” He thought faintly. 
With that, she reentered her bedroom. As quickly as she could Elle put on her jewelry of sterling silver and faux pearls. She only put on a dusting of makeup to highlight her eyes and lips. Pulling her hair back into a loose bun Elle looked herself over. Everything on close inspection was cheaper than the dress but it still looked good. Besides, it was the best she had. This was the first time Ellie had dressed up in years.
Slipping on her cheap but comfortable heels stepped back out into the main living area. To see the roses sitting in a vase fully cut and prepped on her coffee table next to the succulent. It had only been fifteen minutes. “I’m ready,” she told Pietro, who was lounging on the couch, though who knew how long he had actually been there.
He smiled and stood, stretching to give the illusion. “Perfect.” He walked over to her. “You look lovely. So, I found a place, Maestro’s Steakhouse. We have reservations…” he glanced at his watch, “in two minutes. Ready?” Pietro made a show in his smirk and the way he winked to show he was enjoying placing his arm around her waist tightly for their travel.
“Oh dear,” Elle pretended to sound concerned. “Two minutes? We better hurry then.”
As she spoke she placed her hands around his neck and pressed against him. The next thing she knew they were standing outside of Maestro’s Steakhouse. Breaking away from him she fixed her dress and hair quickly.
“Here we are.” He announced as she adjusted her clothes and hair.
“I have often recommended this place but I have never been,” Elle commented as she wrapped her arm around Pietro’s. Now was the time to start turning up her charm. Small manipulations of emotions. Make sure he enjoyed his time with her but also make a show of falling for his charms. And if he started to talk of Brotherhood business take note and perhaps start conceding on a few points. Pretend to fall for rhetoric but remember to keep herself. Elle thought of the succulent plant. Loyalty. Kurt was here for her. It will be alright.
 “You recommended without even trying?! How scandalous and risky.” Pietro winked a blue eye at her to show he was joking. “Well, I’ll make an honest woman out of you tonight.” And if his teeth flashed from his grin, if there was a bit of juvenile humor there, he didn’t falter. 
When they walked up to the door, it was opened for them by a doorman. “Good evening,” the man had a deep voice.
“Evening, sir.” Pietro responded and once they got to the host, he said, “Evening. We have a table reservation at six for Peter Quick.” 
The man smiled and nodded to Quicksilver and Elle. “Ah yes, right on time, sir! Table for two. Madam, good evening. If you’ll follow me…?”
The pair walked after the balding man until they got to the back of the building. It was an open balcony to provide a fantastic view of the garden outside. Pietro pulled out Elle’s chair for her and, once she said, he pushed her in, leaning in just so to brush his fingertips over her arm.
Elle couldn’t help but let a wry smirk come across her face. Peter Quick. They walked through the high-class establishment and Elle tried not to feel self-conscious. No one was paying attention to them except a casual glance but there was a sense of being out of place. It was nice though, especially with Pietro being such a gentleman.
“And what can I get you both to drink? May I recommend the 1986 zinfandel bottle? Or perhaps something a little lighter in flavor?”
Pietro looked at Elle. “Bring us that and a bottle of white wine -- bartender’s choice. And let’s start off with...some shrimp and lobster cocktail.” When he ordered without consulting her a spark of annoyance flashed through Elle but she still gave a smile.
“Very well sir.” The host placed their menus down and slipped away.
Pietro opened up his, though he didn’t really need it, and grinned. “So...what do you think?”
“Very fancy, I have never been to a place like this before. You chose a very lovely spot. I always recommended this place for the view and I am glad I will be able to comment on the food now.” She looked out at the view; the gardens were lit with soft fairy lights and beyond it, she could see the national mall and White House light up splendidly.
“I figured we’d gone to a nightclub...why not try the very opposite?” He made a game of pretending to look through the menu. 
Her eyes glanced down at the menu and she tried not to have a heart attack at the prices. She assumed that Pietro was paying but she would be conservative still with her order. “Might I ask what distracted you from attending the tour?”
At her question, Pietro was glad that his eyes were on the paper. In his mind, he recalled moving through the Senator’s living room, his kitchen, and his office, all while not setting off the alarms, given his speed. He thought of the locked drawer, the single locked drawer, in the man’s desk and how easily he had picked it. Then he remembered the magnificent classified documents that showed the man going precisely against what he had claimed to do to the public...and the companies paying him to do so.
Pietro wiped it away quickly and looked up at Elle. “I got sidetracked with setting up some makeshift homes for a few new mutants that found us. Nothing fancy, but they were the kind to do more damage than fixing anything if they tried. Believe it or not,” he showed Elle a grin, “I’m something of a handyman.”
Elle smiled, he was trying to impress her yet there was a hint of deception in his emotions. She couldn’t tell what it was about though. Still, it was good to know. The Brotherhood had new recruits. “Oh, well that is good to know. My landlord takes forever to get maintenance men out when needed.”
“Hm, well, if you ever need me to fix something, I charge a modest fee -- a night with a stunning lady.” Pietro was glad that she had bought it and moved on. If she hadn’t liked that he stole her drinks before, he wasn’t going to mention the outright illegal activities such as breaking and entering. With that, he tried to move on. “So what looks good on the menu to you? Please, order whatever you want...don’t worry about the numbers, calories, or price.” 
She glanced at him for confirmation. “Well in that case I will have the Waygu steak.” It was the second most expensive thing on the menu. Elle had always wanted to try it and she may never get a second chance.
A few moments later the waiter returned with their wine, pouring them two glasses. She did not pay attention to what kind he said it was as her attention was mostly on Pietro - where did he get this money? “Would you like the bottle, sir,” the waiter asked him.
Pietro picked up the red wine and smiled, bringing it close so that he could catch the scent of it. Ah, he would enjoy every ounce of this $500 bottle, or so he guessed that was the price. Whatever it was, it was delicious. “Yes, keep the bottle.” He agreed. “And we’ll be having two Waygu steaks.” 
“Excellent,” the waiter said, nodding, “your appetizers will be out shortly.”
Once the waiter was gone Elle held up her glass. “To Mutant rights.”
To Mutant rights, those words from her lips thrilled him. Pietro grinned wide and gently brought his glass up to hers. There was a distinct, delicate clink. “To mutant rights.”

How to do perfect staging: a lesson from Italy
I mentioned at some point I might actually make a post drooling over Italy's Måneskin performance and staging. I was kinda bored to be honest and decided against it but then all those trashy rumours that try to bring the winners down seemed so disgraceful and embarrassing to me that I decided again to do it. Now, the truth is that their performance was a little better in the semi-final introduction act. Perhaps this was due to the anxiety of the Grand Final. This is why I am going to use photos and gifs from that act and perhaps this will show to some that the perfect package might need a little bit of everything, and not just slap your language on the audience's ears with the expectation that this alone is always enough. *Did I make this too personal?*
Anyway, I digress. And I don’t mean that the Grand Final performance wasn’t still the best of the night, I just mean it wasn’t at the same God Tier level as the semifinal one.
Here's why the Italians took advantage of the Dutch stage until its very last millimeter and way more cleverly than any other country.
This is the only act that starts from the back of the stage, where the singer Damiano David waits for us alone.
Tumblr media
Even with the rest of the 25 competing countries, this intro makes you forget that you are watching a contest with 26 countries as guests. Unlike anyone else, Italy looks like the host, like this place belongs to them and the frontman waits for you to show you around and possibly drag you to the world of Måneskin. In fact, you almost forget it’s Eurovision - this now looks like a Måneskin concert or, even better, a more private space of theirs with an ominous industrial feel. One of the most impactful things now is the lighting. Take a look at it. Almost all contestants throw all the lights on themselves or on some important prop they have prepared. The Italians are the only ones who chose to just light the stage itself. The simple white lights on the black stage give the impression of depth and it is the only act which shows emphatically the size of the stage. Why this? Well, we already established that in the first seconds the viewers feel they are in a new space belonging exclusively to Måneskin - the lights make us feel that their area is vast and dark and we are about to be drawn to its depths.
Damiano indeed guides us to the front as he sings, where the rest of the band are on the top of a platform. The other members won’t come down and join Damiano until he sings the appropriate verse “Buona sera, signore e signori” (=Good evening, ladies and gentlemen) and accompany it with a theatrical flamboyant bow (that feels very Italian). That’s when, technically introduced to the audience after the official greeting, bassist Victoria de Angelis and guitarist Thomas Raggi come off the platform and join Damiano.
Tumblr media
There’s nothing excessive about the visual effects. Only the use of white lights that give the perception of depth and in the background the big shadows of the group’s silhouettes. They are in the front and they cast their shadows in the back; they create to you a feeling of being trapped by them but do you really want to escape?
Tumblr media
When the second verse starts, Victoria and Thomas take the paths left and right of the stage and leave Damiano alone. They take even more advantage of the stage and in a typical classic rock band way. These two play with the side cameras but the focus is more on Damiano, whose verse sounds more like a tongue-twister. Since the cameras are rightfully on Damiano, I must now address the elephant in the room. Damiano is particularly attractive. In fact, the whole band is almost mind-bogglingly attractive and they clearly take a lot of care about how exactly they are going to look but Damiano, as the frontman, does especially so. So let’s talk about the outfit. They all have essentially the same outfit, however it is cut differently for each based on the person’s looks and personality. Isn’t it fantastic?
Tumblr media
Damiano, who oozes confidence and sex appeal, has accordingly the most “provocative” outfit of the four. His chest and arms are bare so that his many tattoos can be seen. I’ll talk about the other outfits later as they all have their place in the... uh... white lights.
During the second chorus Victoria and Thomas return at the center and after the chorus it is time for the first solo; Victoria’s. The cameras are now on her but the lighting remains modest to accentuate the dark beat of her bass.
Tumblr media
Victoria is the only girl of the group and the most dressed of them all - how refreshing! Her outfit is more similar to Thomas but she is buttoned up in the front. How does she wish to underscore her uniqueness as the woman of the band? But of course, with long flamboyant girly sleeves that come to delicious contrast with her aggressive stomping and her wide strides. Both her hairstyle and her outfit is inspired or basically just outright 70′s classic rock look.
It’s time for the bridge of the song right after her solo and Damiano has his attention on her and also draws the viewer’s attention to her some more. This part of the song is lower and softer - in relative terms - that’s why Damiano “chooses” her to sing it to. The lights now turn red, the intensity rises but there’s light flirtatiousness between them, with many smiles to each other and the camera that turns around them as they launch at each other playfully.
Tumblr media
Then the song gets darker, more intense, the guitar stronger than the bass and Damiano’s voice turns to a scream. For this part, he turns to his bro, guitarist Thomas and he now draws the attention to him.
Tumblr media
He grabs Thomas by the neck in an intense, intimate way (that doesn’t mean sexual, just intimate. His interaction with Victoria wasn’t sexual either). It is clear that through different ways Måneskin want to stress how good and close their relations are and that their singer, who is apparently a show stealer by birth, wants to ensure that they all get equal amount of attention from their audience. I love this.
True enough, nobody is left behind! The last chorus starts with a drums solo and Damiano goes up to the platform to now meet and introduce to us Ethan Torchio. Ethan stands up and his giant shadow is on the now blue background: this is the moment for the - so I hear - somewhat shy drummer to shine in his own aesthetic. The Italians leave none of their assets to fall down and Ethan’s impressive hair rightfully steals the show.
Tumblr media
Just like Victoria and Thomas look alike, so do Ethan and Damiano, that’s why their costumes are the most similar. Ethan has a vest that covers him more than Damiano but leaves his arms bare. Because whose else the arms do you need to see if not the drummer’s?
This song has something peculiar because it was not a song originally written for Eurovision; it slows down in the end and  does not end on some impressive note from the singer as usual but with the last solo we expect, that of the guitarist, because everything is fair in Måneskin! The focus has to leave Damiano, so now it’s the time for the visual effects to finally catch fire, literally,  because nobody is allowed to take their eyes off them! Måneskin use a huge amount of pyro that however feels appropriate for the intense chorus and the ending guitar solo.
Thomas steps up for his solo and I forget we are in 2021. This is the most 70s thing I would ever hope to see.
Tumblr media
In a hell of pyro, Thomas looks like he was tranferred right from a 70s rock ‘n roll concert. His outfit would be gladly taken by Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. The unbuttoned jacket with this boho tie, such a classic 70s fashion touch. His haircut and even his FACE are the epitome of the 70s - what an ending sequence!
But hey we reached the end and this is Eurovision, the song slows down dangerously. Like I said, the Italians forbid us to get distracted. The attention must return to Damiano ASAP. Damiano says one last line and takes the audience with him to the very end with a death drop.
Tumblr media
There you have it. Måneskin had me holding my breath for the full three minutes and I did not want to take my eyes off my TV. There are countless shows that are awesome - in this very Eurovision as well - but I was impressed by how they seemed to have found the perfect balance for everything in every single moment. They found the perfect stage concept for the song, they relied on visual effects only when they needed them and they stressed every twist and turn of their sound with a perfectly fitting move or interaction. They also all effortlessly could hold your attention and they made sure that they all would, with members often helping bring out other members. This performance was beautiful and, above all, clever which is why it was undoubtedly the worthiest of the win.

Yandere! Idia Shroud x Camgirl! Reader SMUT
A/N: Hello! This is my first fic I've posted on tumblr, and I'm not used to using it at all. I hope this turned out okay and you enjoy! This is a College AU, implied magicless world, and reader is a camgirl.
This fic is purely 18+, minors do not interact.
Word Count: ~4.4k
Warnings: dubcon, brief mention of blood, non consensual drug use (aphrodisiacs)
Tumblr media
Friday night, 11:24pm, 6 minutes before your scheduled time to start “work”. You had just finished putting on your makeup and outfit, now trying to hype yourself up in the mirror.
'I can do this. This is gonna be a great show!' You told yourself, while staring at your reflection wearing the revealing outfit. Tonight’s choice was a catgirl maid costume; the maid dress just barely covering your body and showing a large amount of chest. A choker with a bell on it, cat ears, and thigh high socks.
Giving yourself a nod of encouragement, you sat down in the chair in front of your desk, where your laptop and webcam were situated, along with your ring lights, one at each side of the desk so you were well lit for the camera. Making sure you were logged into the site, your camera angle looked good, and your laptop was charging, you waited.
You loved your side gig as a camgirl. You were able to appeal to multiple people’s sexual desires while also being able to bring yourself to pleasure, sometimes more than once per stream, if there were enough donations of course. You were also able to make a decent amount of money while doing this side job, paying for college while having fun was a pretty big plus. And, if you were gonna be honest, the validation of being attractive to so many people really made you feel a lot better about yourself.
You quickly noticed your clock switch to 11:30pm. Time to start. You clicked on the set of buttons you pretty much knew by heart to get the show started. Once it did, you started up some music to fill the silence. Just some cute electronic music to dance in your chair to while you wait for the viewers to come in. You didn’t really have as many as the big camgirls but you had a few loyal people come and watch your streams, which set your heart at ease.
5 viewers
cay-kun @ 11:31pm: wooow y/n-chan, you look so cute! excited for tonight’s show~
User18535 @ 11:32pm: fuck you’re so goddamn cute, i love your tits. can’t wait to see what that pussy looks like
10 viewers
You playfully giggled while reading the last message, winking and sticking your tongue out while flashing the camera your panties from under your skirt. While waiting for more people to join, you also made a point to talk to your viewers, asking about their day and what they’ve been up to recently, which they loved you for.
25 viewers
User58273 @ 11:34pm: You look so kawaii, I wish I could have you service me.
40 viewers
Glancing at the viewer count, you decide to officially start.
“Hi hiii~ I’m so happy to see you all here tonight! Let’s have some fun, hmm?” you started playfully. “Do you guys like my outfit?” Messages of “yes” and “yeah baby”s began flooding the chat and you grinned. “Well, I have something that will be a real treat for you all~”
You reached over to grab something that couldn’t be seen by the camera or the viewers.
~~~~~
Idia was browsing through the site full of nude streamers, trying to find a person to watch so he could relieve his tension from this week. It was midterms season and his Computer Science teachers were giving him hell by making him do in person presentations, exams, and assignments that kept piling up. It took a lot of time away from gaming and side projects of coding his own programs. He also unfortunately didn’t have his little brother Ortho with him in college, as the university didn’t allow them both to attend “as one student”. Ortho definitely eased some stress as someone he could trust and talk to, but Idia’s parents decided to keep Ortho at home to “prevent Idia from being distracted”, much to his dismay.
Idia was at least blessed to not have a roommate, so he could at least have his own privacy for nights like this. Idia’s eyes landed on a thumbnail of a girl that was dressed in cat ears and a lewd maid outfit and was intrigued. He clicked on the video icon and was met with your figure bent so that your ass was up and legs were spread on the chair you were previously sitting on. The girl on the stream had her panties down to her knees and was currently lubing up a cat tail butt plug.
“Ah, I’ve never used this before so, bear with me, please!” She pleaded, eyes looking directly at the camera. Idia was intrigued now this was her first time using it. He felt like this was perfect timing, almost like she was doing it just for him. Until he saw the comments flooding in from different people who were probably thinking the same way.
“Put it in already”
“Go slow okay~”
“don’t force yourself if you don’t want to! >//<”
“Tch,” Idia scoffed to himself. “Seems like she has simps already. No use in being interested in someo-“
“H- here it goes!” You moaned, starting to slowly shove the length and girth of the butt plug into your tight hole. “Aaanh~ it’s stretching me out...” Your eyes pricked with tears while your face contorted into pure pleasure with a hint of pain, all while staring at the camera. Every so often he could hear the little jingle from the bell on your choker.
Idia felt his pants getting tighter and his palms were starting to sweat. The face you made at him was just too unreal and he needed more. He palmed at his growing erection while you shivered at the feeling of being filled by the toy. Pulling his sweatpants down to his ankles, he started stroking his cock lightly.
cay-kun @ 11:38pm: oh y/n-chan the way that stretches out your hole is so sexy~ definitely taking a screenshot for later!
User39748 @ 11:38pm: SHIT i wish i was there fucking you with that in your ass
Blushing, you turned around so that one of your legs were in the chair while your other was up, effectively showing the camera a view of your pussy and butt plug. “What do you want me to do? I’ll just play with myself until someone makes a donation and tells me what I should do! Highest bidder within the next minute~.” With that, you looked into the camera again while soaking your middle and ring fingers with saliva and bringing them to your clit, rubbing small circles into it.
Idia realized that, even now, he wanted to have some kind of control over you. He had a lot of disposable income, being from a pretty rich family. The blue haired boy grabbed his credit card and began to type.
Ignia has donated $100!
Your eyes widened and you gasped slightly. Idia bit his bottom lip at the sight. “Ah, Ignia! Thank you for the donation, you’re new here! Welcome, what would you like to see me do~?” You smiled while looking at the camera. Idia felt like you were staring into his soul and he was sweating profusely. He thought for a minute, gulped, and decided to send a message.
Ignia @ 11:43pm: I want you to keep watching my messages and do what I say, kitten. First I want you to grab a vibrating dildo if you have one and put it at the lowest setting, then fuck yourself slowly with it.
Idia would never have the balls to be this bold with anybody. But this is the internet, so fuck it, he’ll be truthful and just say what he wanted.
You nodded and proceeded to grab one from the table of toys you had next to your desk, lubed it slightly, and did what he told you to. You moaned at the intrusion and the feeling of being filled. “Mmh, it feels so good..!” You cried out.
Ignia has donated $50!
Ignia @ 11:45pm: And by the way, call me Master. You don’t get to cum until I say so.
You shivered at this stranger’s boldness and quietly spoke, “Yes, master...” you looked away shyly from the camera and closed your eyes for a minute, thrusting the vibrating device in and out of your wetness. A couple of moans slipped through your mouth as you felt your juices spreading onto your legs.
Ignia @ 11:47pm: Faster. Fuck yourself faster for me, kitten, and put it on the medium setting for me.
You did as you were told, fingers trembling to follow what the stranger had told you. Your (h/c) hair was starting to feel moist from your layer of sweat and your body was heating up, causing your breasts to stick to the costume.
Ignia @ 11:49pm: Take your tits out and play with your nipples
You panted heavily and lowered your chest area’s covering, revealing the sheen of sweat around your tits. Flicking your left nipple while working the dildo with your right, your hands were occupied with pleasing yourself as this stranger commanded, moaning out. “Aah, m-master, f-feels so go-ood~!”
Idia was smirking, stroking hard at his cock at the sight and idea of you actually doing what he said almost made him cum then and there, but he stopped himself. He couldn’t help the rapid beating of his heart when you said the last sentence. Idia felt special. The power he had over you was addicting and he wanted to see you push yourself over the edge under his command.
65 viewers
User58273: Fuck this is so hot, I wish I could be your master too
Seeing this comment somehow made Idia seethe. He didn’t want to share you, even though this was his first stream with you. You made him feel special. He started typing out his draft of what to reply to the thirsty viewers.
Draft: Ignia: You stupid bastards, no, I’m not going to share her.
Before Idia could send the message you spoke up in a moaning voice. “*pant* N-no, my master tonight is I-Ignia, haanh~”. You were still playing with your nipples while fucking yourself well with the dildo, a light blush decorated your face and beads of sweat starting to form on the sides of your face and your body.
Idia’s jaw dropped. ‘Does she actually really want me?’ He was getting hot, too hot for his own comfort. Usually he wouldn’t last this long during his sessions but he really wanted to see you fall apart under his command. He paid for it, after all.
“Master~ I’m getting close, I- I wanna cum soon!” You whined, pleading (e/c) orbs staring into the camera with your mouth open from panting heavily.
“Cum already, don’t hold yourself back”
“Just keep going babygirl”
“Let yourself cum”
Once again, Idia scoffed in annoyance, but he noticed you never acknowledged any of the other commenters, waiting patiently for the words to come from him.
Ignia @ 11:55pm: put the toy at the highest setting, fuck yourself til you cum, then keep pumping it while you ride out your climax.
Upon seeing those words, your fingers work to put your toy at the highest setting inside your dripping cunt. You closed your eyes while you try to imagine the user who was giving out the commands, imagining them slapping your ass and fucking you until you could see stars. The feeling of both of your holes being filled was overwhelming now, and the hot feeling built up in your core faster than you realized. Idia could see it too, the heaving of your chest was picking up rapidly.
“M-,, ma- master.! I’m cumming!!!” You shrieked. Closing your eyes with your tongue unintentionally lolling out, you released a silent scream as soon as your orgasm hit. It felt like a knot inside of your body had come undone suddenly. Your orgasm had your pussy clenching around the toy that was still vibrating intensely inside of you, stimulating you longer and making you release high pitched screams.
Hearing your words before cumming had Idia teetering on the edge, but watching your facial expressions and your moans made him finish suddenly with a grunt, his pale cock spurting thick white cum all over his hand. Still, Idia kept stroking his length while you were riding out your high, overstimulating himself to match your actions on the stream.
You pulled out the toy weakly and turned it off, putting it down on a towel next to your desk.
Ignia has donated $5!
Ignia @ 11:59pm: Spread your pussy lips babygirl, I wanna see your tight hole.
User39748 @ 11:59pm: I agree with Ignia
cay-kun @ 12:00am: ah~ I also agree. Let’s see you spread it, hmm~? Oh, can you also do a lil ‘nya!’?
You checked the chat and blushed heavily, post-orgasm shyness now taking over your mind. You hesitantly shifted in the chair while spreading yourself open with your pointer and middle finger, showing off your glistening folds with your lightly abused hole. “Nya...” you held up your other hand to do the signature “catgirl” pose, playfully sticking your tongue out too.
Idia was cleaning himself off but he could feel himself twitch again, staring at your meek form. You were so gorgeous and he really wanted to see more of you, making sure to press the “Follow” button, so he wouldn’t miss another stream.
After a few seconds, you decide to end your show, feeling extremely tired and needing a shower from sweating so much. “Thank you so so much for joining me tonight! I hope you guys have a wonderful rest of your evening~ take care and I hope to see you all soon!”
Small tips ranging between $1-$10 started to flow in along with messages of “take care~” “see you soon!” “great show baby ;)”.
You clicked off and you sighed deeply. Looking at your earnings tonight, you made around $200. This was probably the most you’ve made in one single stream, and $155 of that was from Ignia, a new follower and the one who pretty much commanded your entire show tonight. It really turned you on to have someone do that for you and it was the first time a viewer made you do something that felt so lewd that made you cum so quickly.
You stood up from the chair, cleaned up your desk and toys, and headed for the bathroom. Taking off your makeup in the sink, you jumped into the shower to clean yourself up.
~~~~~
Idia tentatively bit his shirt sleeve, his blue locks framing his face. Something inside of him told him that he needed to talk to you more. He had already typed out a message to send along with his friend request. He was scared - scared of being rejected by someone as pretty as you, especially now that he had already felt so attached to you, or rather, what he’s seen from the stream tonight.
Yellow eyes closed tightly as he clicked to send the friend request to you.
~~~~~
Jumping out of the shower, you throw on a head and body towel and started to brush your teeth. Walking around the room you realized your laptop was still on, and there was a notification box front and center. Curious, you clicked on it.
“One new friend request and message”.
“Friend Request: Ignia
Message: Hey, this is the user from your stream earlier. I just wanted to say I really enjoyed your stream tonight. You seem nice too, so I’d like to get to know you more. If you’re interested just feel free to add me back, no pressure ofc.
Thx
Ignia”
You blinked a few times, pondering what you should do. You had gotten messages from guys before but they only said cheap compliments and asking for private shows. You were single so there wasn’t anybody holding you down and this guy didn’t seem to radiate any bad vibes. His dominant nature over chat really turned you on and you were curious about him, so you decided to accept his friend request and send a reply.
“From: y/n-kitty-cat
Hi there :) I decided to accept your message, cause why not? You shouldn’t be that creepy, right? ;P anyway, I’m glad you enjoyed my stream tonight <3 I hope you can come to future ones too!! I’d like to see you around more ;)
❤️
y/n”
You sent the message and went to the bathroom to finish brushing your teeth and your other nightly routines.
Idia couldn’t believe his eyes - you had actually messaged him back and you were really flirtatious!! That meant he was different in your eyes, right? It has to be true! He was determined to meet up with you, eventually. His dick throbbed at the idea of having you to himself, pleasing him with your mouth, doing all those lewd faces you made on the stream... his mind wandered while he pushed his pants down once again and thought of his muse who was now his “friend”.
~~~~~
After a few days of messaging back and forth, you and Ignia had ended up exchanging numbers and using text to communicate almost daily. You found out things like what your majors in college were, finding out his real name was Idia, which was a pretty unique name, and realizing you were both from the same city. Well, it’s not like Idia hadn’t already done his research - the night he became your friend he had stalked all of your social medias under a throwaway account and scrolled through every photo and bit of information he could find about you. He was becoming so hyper fixated on you he needed to know more, who could blame him? Idia just hoped he would be seeing more of you in your streams so he could watch you get off again, maybe with his assistance.
Unfortunately for you though, you realized you couldn’t stream as much because midterms were also kicking your ass. You apologized to your viewers with a blog post who luckily understood and wished you luck, saying they looked forward to your next show.
Idia couldn’t see your pretty face from the stream, which made him yearn. He told Ortho about his crush on you and when the small boy told Idia to “just tell you the truth and meet up with you!” he wanted to shut down completely. But, he wasn’t completely opposed to the idea of you being in his room, exactly where he wanted you. Sighing, he picked up his phone to send you a text.
Idia: “hey”
Y/n: “hey there! 😉”
Idia: “soo i was wondering if you wanted to hang out sometime”
Y/n: “omg 😱 like irl? I’ve never even heard your voice before lol”
Idia: “ik, i’m a bit shy in person.”
Y/n: “i see, so is the life of a gamer and a shut in?😏😂”
Idia: “hah, yeah i guess lol”
Y/n: “soo, what did you wanna do?”
Idia: “idk, anything you want. Except go outside. And be in public.”
Y/n: “pfft, that takes away like any idea at this point HAHA”
Idia: “ya lol i prefer gaming in my room tbh”
Y/n: “oh, then maybe we can just hang out and play games or something like that?”
Idia: “Yeah, why don’t you come over to my dorm, we could game and eat snacks”
Y/n: “Sounds great! This Friday then, 6pm?”
Idia: “Sure i’ll text you the details later”
Y/n: “Awesome :) see you in a couple days then ;)”
Idia: “cool”
Idia threw himself on his bed and screamed silently into the pillow. Idia wanted more than to just be your friend but unfortunately was also extremely shy, especially when talking to new people in person. But as he was sexually attracted to you, he knew he would have a hard time hiding it from you. He had hoped to initiate some kind of sexual interaction when you met up, wanting to indulge in your sinful reactions himself. He didn’t even want to think about anybody else seeing you like that. Idia was growing possessive and realized that if he were to get you where he wanted you, he needed to do a little bit of digging. Which meant searching the web for something that would help make you more agreeable to something sexual. He knew he himself couldn’t make you agree to it, he was too nervous to initiate that! He knew what he needed - an aphrodisiac.
Composing himself, he got onto his computer and compared his options as well as looking for advice on how to please a woman. His eyes widened and lips trembled as he realized he was definitely way too shy to initiate as much as other men do, but he was determined to try anything if it meant your attention.
~~~~~
Today was finally Friday, and the current time was 5:30pm. You styled your (h/c) locks and put on a light amount of makeup, not as much as you would when you streamed but enough to make yourself feel pretty. You also decided that you still wanted to be cute, even if you and Idia were just friends at this point, and wore a tight crop top, a high waisted black skirt, and some thigh high socks since it was a bit breezy outside. You topped it all off with a (f/c) cardigan so you could at least feel comfortable in the sleeves. Packing your bag, you took one last look at yourself in the mirror, did a little peace sign and smiled, feeling cute as hell. You grabbed your keys and walked out of your dorm, heading towards Idia’s campus.
You parked at the place he told you to and gotten out of your car, looking around for him. Shit, you just realized you didn’t even ask him what he was gonna wear or what he really looked like, which was pretty dumb in hindsight. You did catch a glimpse of a tall lanky guy with fluffy blue hair and a striped t-shirt, who was fumbling around on his phone and didn’t realize you was standing right by him.
“Excuse me,” you interrupted his peace softly, causing him to jump up and squeal in fear. “Oh!! I’n so sorry, I’m just looking for someone and I didn’t know if I was in the right place?”
Idia froze. It really was you, in the flesh, looking at him and taking his appearance in. You were gorgeous, even more so than he would have ever thought, and your voice brought tingles to his spine that made him shudder. Idia realized he was being quiet for a longer than acceptable time and he looked away. “H-hi,, y/n...” he mumbled barely even audible.
“Oh!! Idia? Is that you? Hi!!!” You exclaimed, seemingly really excited. Your mouth was curved into a wide smile too.
“Huh, you sound really enthusiastic...” Idia whispered, thinking he really said it in his own mind instead of out loud.
“Of course I am! I’m finally done with midterms and now I can relax and have fun with my new friend!” You said, bumping your shoulder with him, causing him to hold his breath.
Idia gulped when he realized what you said. Friend. Right, that’s all he was to you. At least for now. But hopefully that would change soon, right?
“Y-yeah. Let’s go inside.” Idia muttered, turning his back and walking.
Based on his demeanor, you almost forgot that Idia was the one who was so dominant during your stream the other week, since his attitude was so shy in real life. But, you pushed that thought to the back of your head, today was gonna be a fun day with a new friend, and that was strictly it. You didn’t really want to make your side job as a sex worker into a big thing that would make real life friendships difficult.
~~~~~
After he led you through the halls of the dorm, he brought you to a door and opened it up. Inside it was a bit messy, but an organized mess, one where the owner definitely knew where everything was. He had a pc setup with multiple monitors, RGB lighting which was mostly set to shades of blue, and a really nice gaming chair to go along with it. He also had a shelf with different manga series along it and other consoles for gaming, a bed, a door that led to a bathroom, and a mini fridge. Pretty nice for someone who lived without a roommate, you thought.
You walked over to his bed and flopped down onto it. Idia couldn’t help but think about the many times he had masturbated to you on those sheets that you were now sitting on. He was wondering what kind of panties you were wearing too, when he was suddenly interrupted.
“So! I guess we should get started on some games, yeah? I think I wanna play a fighting one against you! I’m totally gonna win~” You smiled up at him playfully.
Idia let his personality slip when games were brought up. “Tch, you really think you’re gonna win against me ? Think again.” The blue haired boy smirked down at you, which lit up the fire of competition in your heart.
“Let’s go then, dude.”
~~~~~
After about 15 minutes of close battles but still losing every one, you groaned and put the controller down on the floor where you and Idia were positioned in front of a monitor. You had developed a small sheen of sweat on your face from the stress. “Hey Idia, do you have anything to drink? I’m so thirstyy~” You looked at him and pouted, hoping he would maybe have some soda or water for you.
“A-ah, yes I do...” he stuttered a bit, seemingly nervous about something. He shuffled over to a mini fridge near his desk and brought out a cooler bottle. “Here, I made this sweet tea yesterday and you can drink from it...” Idia handed you the cool bottle and you observed it suspiciously. He was starting to feel his breath hitch and wondered if you had caught on.
“Hm~? Drinking from the same bottle already? So intimate!” You teased him, lightly elbowing his side. “Well, here goes nothing.” You tipped the bottle into your mouth and the tea tasted like sweet peach, with a slightly bitter aftertaste.
“Hm, it’s... interesting. What kind of tea is it?” You inquired, looking at the contents and sniffing it.
“I-it’s a recipe I found online! It looked good so, I decided to make it, I- I thought you would like it...” he shyly put down his head, trying to hide his suspicious nervousness from you.
“Okay... well it’s pretty good! I’ll drink some more, thanks for thinking of me~” you said as you gulped down the drink for a few more seconds. “Mmh! I think that cooled me down, let’s play more rounds!”
Idia looked back at you and sighed in relief. “Y-yeah, let’s do that.” He didn’t know how long it would take to work but at least he could distract his nerves by playing some games.
~~~~~
You started to sweat and feel hot. Unbearably hot. You cleared your throat and pulled off your cardigan and folded it to the side, but it wasn’t enough. The heat spread from your head, to your torso, and to your lower regions. Feeling hot and a deep... itch that you couldn't quite reach, in your crotch, you decide to change the position in which you were sitting, from crossing your legs to having them right underneath you, to feel some sort of friction in that area. You could feel yourself blushing intensely while the blue haired man next to you was still immersed in the game you both were supposed to play.
Watching him, you couldn’t help but notice the way his fingers moved on the controller, his thumbs and pointers expertly moving across it. You started thinking about how they would feel playing with your nipples and clit - wait. ‘What am I even thinking about?! Snap out of it!’ But, you also couldn’t help but think about when you were close to beating him during a round, his voice changed to a lower, frustrated one, and he even let out a little growl. Even now you noticed the way his eyes were so glued to the monitor with a small scowl on his face. Thinking about that sent throbs and heat to your growing wetness.
WINNER: PLAYER 1!
“Fuhehe, I knew I could beat you again~ but for some reason it felt like you weren’t trying as hard this round.” Idia put down his controller, finally took a glance at you, and his breath was caught in his throat.
Your (s/c) body was covered with a layer of sweat, cheeks burning and your eyes looked glossy. You were also panting slightly, rubbing your legs together softly to try to create more friction. “A-ah,, hey... do you think you could lower the temperature in here? It- it’s getting really hot. Maybe I could have more of that cold tea?” You breathed, trying to sound more stable than you were.
Idia was dumbfounded for a second and totally forgot you had drank the tea that he mixed with the aphrodisiacs. He gulped as he leaned closer to your face, observing you. “Is... is there anything else I can help you, w-with?” Idia placed a hand on the floor near your thigh and watched as you tried to scoot away from it.
“D-don’t do that... it’s...,” you whimpered, back now touching the side of his bed as you leaned away from his touch. Since when did he smell so good? His scent radiating from his proximity sent tingles across your body.
“Do what?” Idia experimentally reached out to touch your arm, fingers grazing your back slightly. You couldn’t fight back the moan that slipped out of your mouth. “Haah~ I-Idia...” you breathed, looking at him with pleading eyes. You really weren’t planning on doing anything with your new friend, so why was your body disobeying your mind?
“Y/n... you know you can tell me if there’s a-anything you need.. I’ll help you.” Idia’s eyes were still wide and the way he looked at you made you start craving. You wanted him - no, you NEEDED him to touch you more. You never really thought about it, but, Idia really was attractive. It’s not because of your hazy mindset that you realized it, but the way the blue lights illuminated his pale skin and make his hair almost glow, you were just focusing on it more. He was... cute.
“I-...” you started, looking down at his hand on your arm, and then back at him. Staring at his lips, you felt your arms move around his neck as you pulled him closer. Your lips smashed against each others messily and you released a soft whimper against his mouth. The reality hitting you, you moved your head back suddenly breaking the kiss. Your body was still hot.
“F-first...” Idia was stuttering. “First... kiss...” Idia stared wide eyed at you, lips still trembling. He blushed and turned away, his brows tilted upwards as if he were troubled.
“Oh, oh god, I’m so sorry....” you breathed out, scared you had fucked it up with your friend.
“Haah.. more...” his eyes suddenly turned back to you, seemingly darker than before. “I want more of you, y/n...” with that, he brought his lips to yours again and moved them sloppily against your own. He even took the liberty to bite your bottom lip with his sharp teeth, causing you to yelp. Idia used this opportunity to shove his tongue past your mouth and moved it against your own, causing you to moan in pleasure while you could feel your panties starting to drench.
Idia pulled away from you, cheeks tinted pink. Both of you panted for breath, your clothes now feeling sticky due to sweat. He scanned your blushing figure and saw an opening of your skirt that had shown off your lacy panties. Idia gulped and dove his head towards your clothed pussy, breathing in the essence and shuddering loudly, which made you gasp.
“Idiia, no... we, we shouldn’t...” you whined. But you could feel your body was not agreeing with your words. When the tip of his nose grazed your clit you bucked your hips against his head, letting out a moan at the contact.
He lifted up your skirt to your waist so he could see your facial expressions. Suddenly, his wet tongue experimentally slid up your clothed pussy, piercing yellow eyes locked onto your glazed over eyes. You shrieked at the sensation and felt embarrassed that he could get you like this, and you were still wearing your panties.
“Hhn, you wore these for me, didn’t you..?” Idia said, which made you blush. “No, I- I didn’t...” you muttered weakly, trying to avoid his gaze
Idia’s grip on your thighs suddenly got tighter and he looked up at you with furrowed brows. “Don’t lie to me, kitten. I know you want me, like how you did on the night we met, on your stream.” Idia firmly told you. It seemed like it was more like he was convincing himself. "N-no Idia, I... I don't want to-" you started, until you were interrupted.
Idia’s teeth bit suddenly into your soft thigh, causing it to bleed a bit. You knew it would leave a big mark later. “AH!! F-fuck!!” You grabbed onto his blue hair and felt your pussy clench onto nothing. Why, why are you enjoying this? It was like Idia’s personality had changed, from the shy person you met outside his dorm to a more possessive and rough one. You were a bit scared of him but why was he making you feel so good?
You didn’t have time to think as you felt him move the fabric of your panties to the side so your drenched cunt was fully visible to him. He stared in awe and took in everything - the shape, size, and how wet you were. You brought the back of your hand up to your head and panted with embarrassment. “Idia... mmh...”, tears pricking the corners of your eyes. Your body was still wanting more and after your mind was fighting the feeling so much, you decided to let it be. “Please...”
Idia met your eyes and saw how glossy they were. He lifted your body onto the bed so that you were now lying on your back while he was still in front of your crotch. You softly breathed in and out, causing your chest to rise and fall in your sweat soaked top. He snaked a pale hand under your shirt to grope your breast in your lacy bra, cold fingers sending shivers through your hot body. Idia couldn’t resist any longer, he suddenly shoved his wet muscle onto your pussy with fervor. You gasped and threw your head back onto Idia’s plush pillow, and shoved your hand on the back of his head pushing it deeper into your legs. Idia couldn’t contain himself and moaned into your heat, sending vibrations through it. “Oh- aaanh~ Idi-aaa~....” you sighed and whined. He took this opportunity to lower the cup of your bra below your breast and pinch your pert nipple in his fingers.
“Fuck~!” you screamed, feeling hot tears flowing down your face. Your body couldn’t take it much longer. Your core was building a familiar sensation but it was all too overwhelming and coming too fast. “It feels so good!!” You squealed, squeezing your thighs together so you were caging his head. Idia focused his energy lapping hungrily at your clit and then pushed two digits of his free hand through your wet hole, pumping them in and out. Your panting breaths were becoming shorter with each pump.
“Idia~ I’m close!! I’m gonna cum..!” You looked at him between your legs, and he lifted his mouth off of your cunt for a brief second. He stared into your eyes with his yellow ones, which stared at you intensely, licked his lips, and spoke.
“Cum for me then, kitten. Don’t hold back, cum all over my face.” With that, he dove back in and pumped his fingers into your core and flicked his tongue on your sensitive pearl even faster than before. Idia’s hips were rutting on his mattress, precum wetting his undergarments.
“Oh god - I’m cumming, I’m cumming~!!” You screeched and squeezed his head with your thighs, squirting his face and sheets with your cum. His tongue darted around your pussy licking off your juices. You breathed heavily, riding out your high. It took everything in him to stop himself from cumming right then and there - he wanted to save that for later.
Idia leaned up to where you were and kissed you passionately, and you could taste yourself all over his mouth. You moaned at the taste of your own juices on his tongue. Still exhausted from Idia eating you out, your body somehow craved the feeling of being filled. You sat up and got up from the bed and for a second he was afraid you were getting ready to leave. You removed your drenched shirt in front of him as well as your skirt, underwear, and bra. Still wearing your thigh high socks, he stopped you before you could remove them. “I, I want you to keep those on...” he licked his lips as he stared at your socks squeezing your plush thighs, the mark he made earlier with his teeth was visible and bruising now.
Following your lead, Idia was removing his own garments, tossing his shirt to the side. He was lean, not too skinny but not muscular either, pale all over. He also removed his pants and swung them over to the floor. Idia avoided your gaze as his erection was now very much so noticeable in his boxers, and you could even see a dark spot where his precum had made a mark. You felt your vagina tremble at the sight of it. It’s been a long time since you’ve had a partner and the anticipation was starting to get to you. As for Idia, well, everything was his first.
You knelt down in front of his bed and his legs and reached out to touch the head of his penis through the boxers, making him twitch and breathe out. “Mmh,...” you pulled down his underwear to reveal his lengthy cock. He wasn’t extremely girthy but he made up for that in length. The head of it was a shade of pale pink and dripped with clear liquid. You took some of the clear liquid in your hand and began teasing the head of his dick. Opening your mouth, you also gave it a few kitten licks while you pumped the base. Idia let out a few grunts and threw his head back, causing you to grow wet again.
Idia felt himself getting too close to orgasm which made him grab your head to stop you from going further. He lifted you up again and placed you on his lap, your dripping cunt hovering over his standing cock. Your body was hot again as you stared into Idia’s yellow eyes, a pink haze dusting his pale cheeks. Remembering he was a virgin, you looked at him hesitantly. ‘I- I don’t know, are you sure you want to lose your virginity right now?’ was what you were planning on saying, until he spoke up.
“Y/n... I need you. I’ve been wanting to do this to you for a while. I- I'm gonna put it in...” Idia whispered, panting slightly. As he was lowering your hips, you couldn't say anything as you felt his tip graze your wetness and you whimpered at the feeling. He kept bringing your hips down until you felt him all the way inside, head of his dick kissing your cervix. You threw your arms around his neck and moaned into his ear, causing a grunt from your partner. Not giving you time to adjust, Idia started thrusting in and out sloppily into your hole, squelching and moaning sounds filling the air of his usually quiet dorm.
“Oh Idia, please, pleasepleaseplease-!” You screamed, not even knowing what you were pleading for. Your (h/c) hair was sweaty and you felt your eye makeup starting to run with every tear you shed. Idia’s loud grunts filled your ear, causing your heat to build up.
“*pant* Mmh, y/n...” he paused and started thrusting into you slowly but hard, pulling you back so his forehead could touch with yours, blue hair still frayed in his face. “You have, *pant* no idea... I would masturbate to your pictures every. Single. Night. I jerked off on these sheets and used your photos of you smiling, you weren’t even *pant* n-naked... Does that, *pant* make me a sick pervert? No matter, you're here with me now, and I'm mmh, making you feel good, right?” Idia confessed, yellow eyes staring into yours with infatuation and obsession. You felt your breath hitch in a feeling familiar to fear. He was lovesick. Not the same person you thought you were messaging for the past few days or gaming with earlier. He looked deranged.
“I... Aaanh~!” You were cut off by a particularly hard thrust into your cervix. Idia licked your neck while thrusting into your abused hole. “I’m gonna breed you, kitten. W-wanna see you drip with my cum.. mmh, you want that?”
You were so close to your release that you didn’t even care about what he was saying. “More Idia, more!!” You breathed. Closing your eyes and now using your own hips to grind into his cock.
Remembering a particular position that grabbed Idia’s attention, he lifted you up, dick still hard inside of you. He placed your back on the bed, your head on his pillow while he brought your legs up to your chest. Idia continued to thrust into you, your face now in full view. He held your wrists in one hand above your head so you couldn’t hide your face from his eyes.
“Idia...” you breathed out. “I- Idia!!!!” You felt your orgasm approaching fast while he pounded into you relentlessly. “Haaanh~ I’m close!!” You moaned shamelessly.
“Hnnh, that’s r-right, y/n... mm, cum for me...” Idia breathed out in between his panting. With that, Idia thrusted faster until the knot that was building in your lower regions finally released. “Aaanh~!! I’m cumming, Idia, c-cumming all over your cock!!” Your face contorted into one of full bliss, eyes looking straight into his with your mouth in an o-shape. The walls around Idia’s length clenched tightly, milking him of his seed. Idia came suddenly with a groan, pumping it deep within you while riding out his high. "Fuck, y/n!!"
Idia rolled you both to your sides, his dick softening inside you. You both panted hard as you faced one another. You opened your eyes to find him with his eyes closed, blushing at the sight of your naked bodies still intertwined even after your climaxes. “We, we actually did it...” he whispered and opened his eyes. “!!!!” He made a mildly surprised noise, eyes widening and turning away.
“Eeh?! What’s wrong!?” You said, wondering if something was on your face. “N-nothing it’s just.... I’m surprised we... you.. you’re staring at me... I’m sorry, I’m still not used to people doing that...” Idia said shamefully, darting his yellow eyes to and from you periodically.
You couldn’t help but giggle. “Eek!! Why,, are you laughing at me?” Idia frowned and hid his face in the pillow. “Well.. your personality is different when you’re having sex versus not. It's interesting.” you told him, tracing a finger along his arm.
Idia blushed intensely, throwing his arms around your neck and hid his pale face in your neck. "Mmph..! I-, I like you, y/n..." he breathed into your neck. "I wouldn't be able to handle you doing this with another person so... will you be mine?" Idia pulled back to watch your face as you contemplated.
Idia's words from earlier suddenly flooded your memories. He looked insane when he confessed to his perverted actions and it evoked an uncertain emotion akin to fear. Your body felt paralyzed. But in the moment, with Idia's lightly pink tinged skin and unsure eyes, you had to admit it made your heart flutter, too. "Yes, Idia..."

CHAPTER 3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"You expect me to play with you? It's been years since I played" Madilyn asked as she fixed her pigtails and reapplied her peach lip gloss. Mike stared at the girl with admiration and hope," Yes, yes I do". "I would love to but I have to be at the game tonight"
"Please Mads no one else will do it !" He begged. She smiled and squished his cheeks pressing a soft kiss to his forehead, "Sorry Mikey I wish I could help you" The brunette watched as he groaned and walked away but not before hugging her and quickly walking away with his curly-haired friend who pouted as she walked away. She was about to turn when she tripped over someone's foot looking up quickly she spotted Melanie and her posse
"What the fuck Melanie!?" She yelled while standing up and rubbing her knees. "Oops," She said causing Tweedle-dee and Andrew to laugh. "What is your guy's problem?" She glared as she walked up to the two her and Andrew's chest touching as he looked down at her with a smirk
"Take a guess princess Andrew smirked while licking his lips. Mads rolled her eyes as she walked away picking up her backpack and speed walking to the gymnasium. She hated him. His smile, his stupid green eyes that she used to get lost in. That mother fucker dared to treat her like that? Oh, she'll get them back.
Tumblr media
"Let's go Tigers!" The cheer team chanted, "Go go Tigers!". The basketball team was warming up as the band played their instruments loudly. Once everyone was in their seats the principal spoke on the microphone that was placed in the center of the gymnasium.
"Everyone now please rise for our national anthem" He spoke. Madilyn and the rest of the gym stood up, "Singing for us tonight, we have a very special guest. From Nashville, our very own, Tammy Thompson!"
Madilyn groaned as she held her head in her hands as the rest of the gym cheered. She couldn't keep count of how many times Tammy made her ears bleed. Tammy made her way up to the microphone stand as the principal walked away. She waved and blew kisses not subtly winking at Matthew who frowned and avoided the blonde's eye while fixing his jersey.
Once she stood at the stand, she waited for a second before beginning to sing the national anthem, and of course, it was a psychical form of a migraine. The microphone feedback whined as she continued to sing. "I want her to sing at my funeral" Madilyn whispered to Chrissy.
She would much rather watch the game like a normal person than dance and cheer but Chrissy and Daniel had forced her to join the group so she couldn't get out of this," Push 'em back, defense! Push 'em back!". Like what type of dumbass chant is that.
She giggled, "Listening to her already makes me feel the five stages of grief". Madilyn giggled loudly, causing the principal to glare at her from across the room. Chrissy noticed and giggled softly with Mads until the torture came to the end and the game began.
Tumblr media
Tigers 32:36 Falcons
Fucking hell, even the chant isn't working, who would've thought. 1 minute and 20 seconds left of the game.
Tigers 51 : 50 Falcons
Madilyn's hopes were brought back up. She was so into the game that she was screaming at the players. Chrissy laughed at her enthusiastic friend before cheering again. "Timeout, Timeout!" Jason yelled at the 25-second mark as he aggressively created the T symbol with his hands.
Tigers 69:69 Falcons
Madilyn laughed at the scoreboard before the game continued. Jason was passed the ball and he went to shoot his shot, however, he missed completely. This caused Lucas to catch the ball. He dribbled it back and almost as of it were in slow motion, he went to shoot his shot. The ball danced around the rim of the hoop. Madilyn's heart was pounding and everyone in the gym was on the edge of their seat.
Only three seconds left.
Two.
One.
The ball then slowly fell into the hoop.
Zero.
The crowd roared; it was louder than it was ever before. Madilyn and Chrissy wrapped their arms around each other and jumped in the air excitedly while, pretty much, screaming. Everyone ran over to Lucas and cheered with him, his team hugged the boy yelling excitedly when he caught the eyes of Madilyn who he ran over to and pull her into a hug as she whispered congratulations in his ear

Tinder but make it your girlfriend
I'm so sorry I haven't posted anything in agesss but I've been very much preoccupied with university and writer's block but this came to me after reading @sour--disposition 's fic on a similar idea!
In this, the reader is a mcyt/streamer and Tommyinnit's sister and dating Ethan.
Y/H/T (your hometown)
Y/A (your age)
Y/H (your height)
You were sat in the green room, idly scrolling through twitter responding to replies from fans and your friends, waiting for one of the crew to let you know it was your turn. Everyone else had already had their turn, returning to recount the lines used by the boys through laughter.
Originally you weren’t meant to be in the video but one of the girls had pulled out last minute so the boys had asked you to fill in the spot. As Ethan’s girlfriend you’d agreed to take part because you thought it would be funny to be involved instead of just being behind the camera.
Emma came back into the room, drawing you out of your thoughts, “good luck Y/N, I think you’ll need it.”
You smiled at her before getting up to follow the crew member into the shoot room. As soon as you walked in, the boys cheered. You stepped onto the footprints and looked at the camera to introduce yourself.
“Hi. I’m Y/N, from Y/H/T and I’m Y/A,” you looked at the line of your friends in front of you, “do your worst boys.”
Simon stepped up to the cut out first, trying to hide his smile, causing you to smirk back at him.
“Hi. I’m Simon, I’m 28 and I’m taller than Ethan,” he deadpanned, looking straight at you.
Alongside the other boys, you burst out laughing at Simon’s line, as Ethan made noises of insult from further back.
You stopped laughing enough to respond, “I mean the thing is, you’re right. So I’m gonna go for yes.”
The laughter resumed as Simon went to the right, flipping off your boyfriend as he went when JJ went up next. You took a deep breath, steeling yourself for what your friend was going to say.
He looked at you, “I’m JJ, I’m 27 and um, I’m not a weatherman but you can expect a few more inches tonight.”
“Oh God I feel sorry for your girlfriend, “you replied with a small laugh, “I think you might be exaggerating with a few inches there JJ.”
JJ put his hand to his chest, staggering back into Stephen at your response.
“It’s a hard no for me JJ. Not sorry,” you decided, dramatically swiping your hand to the left.
He moved over to the left, with an overdramatic pout, “I will never recover from this Y/N.”
“I’m sure your ego is big enough to survive this,” you smiled at him sarcastically, “who’s next?”
Stephen stepped up to the footprints, “I’m Stephen, I’m 25 and- you know what? Nah.”
You looked at him in shock as he went over to JJ whilst the others descended into laughter, Simon falling over and a couple of the others leaning on each other for support.
You pointed an accusing finger at him, “you know what? I expected that from Freezy but not you Stephen. I’m disappointed.”
“What did I do for this slander?” Cal protested.
“We haven’t got the time to explain that,” Lux laughed.
Tobi was next up, “Hi Y/N.”
“Afternoon.”
“I’m Tobi, I’m 27 and I’m 6 foot tall.”
You looked at him with amusement, “Ethan how tall am I?”
“Y/H,” he replied with a matching look.
“I thought so. If you’re 6 foot Tobi then I must fucking snow white,” you answered, pointing him towards the no side, “that’s just a bold faced lie.”
After Tobi came Callux who you knew was gonna be using a pick up line, “give us your worst then Lux.”
“The standards are high Y/N?” Asked Simon, currently the only when who you’d said yes to.
“We’ve established the bar is in hell, I’m dating Ethan,” you deadpanned, smirking at the laughter that followed.
Cal began after you’d all recovered, “I’m Calum, I’m 29. I have 206 bones in my body. Want to give me another one?”
You nodded, “yeah sure. Come here and I’ll break your leg in 2.”
Lux looked at you in complete shock whilst you just stared back at him, “off to the left you go Luxxy.”
Following him was Vik, “I’m Vik, I’m 25 and I play minecraft.”
“I mean I think Tommy would disown me if I said no but because you’re also an mcyt I feel I’m legally required to swipe right,” you explained, gesturing to the right.
Finally it was the turn of Ethan. He stepped up to the cut out and looked at you. You stared straight back at him, not breaking eye contact.
“Are they having a fucking staring contest?” Exclaimed JJ.
You nodded, “and I won.”
“I’m Ethan, I’m 24 but I’m pretty sure you know that. If you swipe left then I’ll no longer give you access to my wardrobe.”
You sucked the air in between your teeth, “see as funny as it would be for me to swipe left that is not something I’m willing to risk.”
You put your hands in a heart as he joined the other boys. He smiled back to you and you knew you’d be stealing the very t-shirt he was wearing later.
As Freezy stepped up you took a sip of water from the bottle in hand, “Hi. I’m Cal, I’m 26 and I’m also taller than Behzinga.”
Ethan put his middle finger up at Freezy which made you nearly spit the water from your mouth. You managed to swallow the water before pointing a threatening finger at your boyfriend warning him to behave.
“It just isn’t funny when you steal the joke Freezy. But I guess that’s why most your content isn’t,” you mused, siding him to the left.
He staggered into JJ who brought him to the floor as he ‘died’ at your take down.
“You’ve managed to kill 2 of them today Y/N. I hope you’re proud,” Ethan huffed.
You nodded, “yeah and now I’ll steal all their subscribers. Thank you KSI for your help, Freezy less so.”
“Can we have her removed from the set please?” JJ complained, “she’s destroying all of us.”
Vik shook his head, laughing, “it’s hilarious.”
“Only because you’re on the other side of it, fam!”
A crew member called out to you all, “can we move on to Harry please.”
When your best mate stepped up with his upside down notebook you burst out laughing, “I’m sorry Bog. Please continue.”
“Um, I’m Harry, I’m 24 and I actually have a poem for you.”
“Let’s hear it then.”
Harry cleared his throat to read, “Roses are red, the sun is bright, Y/N can’t play bedwars, she is so shite.”
“Insulting her doesn’t work,” shouted Stephen.
You flipped him off, “shut up Stephen. See I have some issues here. On one hand, you’re insulting me Harry but it’s also true. Plus, I actually wrote that poem Harry.”
The others 'ooed’ teasingly at your point before you continued, “but because it’s you I’m gonna say yes.”
He gave a little cheer and joined the others on the right, fist bumping Ethan.
The last one left was Josh, who you were praying wasn’t going to say anything weird given that you saw him like a brother.
“I’m Josh, I’m 29 and… no I just can’t do it. It’s too weird,” Josh laughed and walked to the right.
You breathed out a sigh of relief, “I’ll be honest I’m quite glad for that.”
With the boys all sorted to either side, the shoot was finally over and you were all free to go back to your flats.
You arrived back at your apartment to take a shower and change into Ethan’s t-shirt with a pair of leggings before joining him on the sofa to order takeaway and pick a movie.
He slid his arm easily around your shoulders, pulling you into him, allowing you to rest your head on his shoulder. You closed your eyes, the exhaustion of the long day finally hitting you.
“Thank you for being in the video,” Ethan murmured in your ear.
You smiled into his shoulder, “it was fun. Any opportunity to take the piss out of the boys.”

Free Fall
Pairing: Henry Cavill x Reader
Summary: Henry meets your parents for the first time, and custody issues arise.
Warnings: fluff, angst, slight family drama, slight daddy issues, Lav being cute as always
A/N: Just me channeling my own problems into my writing as an emotional outlet lmao. Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 7
You heard the alarm go off, but groaned and rolled over, attempting to smother the sounds with your pillow. You heard Henry chuckle, and roll out of bed, before walking out of the room.
He poked his head into Lavender’s room, where she was safe and asleep, so he continued his journey down the stairs. He turned the coffee machine on, and grabbed two travel mugs.
Today, you and him would be heading to your home town, and he’d be meeting your family. To say he was nervous would be an understatement. He was absolutely terrified. He was terrified that they wouldn’t like him, or that they would think he’s not a good father to Lavender.
He also nervous because he knew Lavender’s birth father lived in the same town, and he honestly didn’t know what he would do if he came face to face with that asshole.
He had just finished making both your coffee’s, when he hears Lavender wake up over the baby monitor. He headed to her room, peaking his inside his to check on you, who was still sleeping.
Lavender stopped crying when Henry came in to her line of sight, and watched him intently as he picked her up and cradled her against his chest. He changed her diaper quickly, and got her dressed, before taking her down stairs. He placed her into the high chair, and tilted it back gently so it supported her back and head. She had gotten better at holding up her own head, but Henry didn’t want to take any chances. She cooed and watched as he moved around the kitchen, getting everything ready for the road trip.
She blew a raspberry, and Henry turned around. “What are you doing, boo boo?” He asked her, walking over to press a kiss to her forehead. She let out a giggle, and then began moving her arms around wildly, and squealing. Henry smiled and unbuckled her, picking her up. “Mama is still sleeping, and Dada doesn’t want to wake her up yet. We have to be quiet.” He whispered, and he got a huge smiled in return, before Lavender laid her head on his shoulder.
Henry continued what he was doing, until Lavender let out a cry, signalling that she was hungry. Henry smushed her, but began prepping a bottle for her before walking into the living room with her, and sitting down to feed her. He gazed down at her as she happily ate her breakfast. “You are so beautiful, you know that?” He said. She gazed up at him in a way that almost made him believe that she understood what he was saying. “i’m gonna take care of you the way a father should. I don’t care that you’re biologically not mine, you’re my baby girl, and that’s all that matters,” He whispered, before pressing a kiss to her forehead. He watched as her eyes drifted shut.
You came down the stairs a few minutes later with all the pre-packed bags, and smiled at Henry who was holding Lavender.
“I didn’t hear her wake up,” You said, and Henry chuckled as he stood up.
“She woke up about an hour ago, but you were still sleeping so I got her. She’s eaten, and everything is ready to go,” He said. You nodded as you took a sip of your coffee. “Okay, thank you.” You said, and Henry walked over to you to give you a kiss.
“I’ll load the car up, if you get her in her car seat,” Henry suggested, passing Lavender to you. You took your daughter, and cradled her against your chest. She opened her eyes, and looked up at you. “We’re you being good for Dada?” You asked her, and she cooed in response.
A few minutes later, Lavender was secure in her car seat, and the car was packed. Henry carried the car seat to the car, and you climbed into the passengers seat, Kal following to lay on your feet. Henry got in the drivers seat, and the four of you were off. The drive went fairly well, with Lavender sleeping the majority of the time, in between feedings, where you would have to get in the back to help feed her.
You arrived at your parents house just before midnight, and both were relieved when you could see lights on, signifying that your family was still awake. Sneaking into your childhood home with a baby and dog didn’t seem like the most enjoyable thing.
You took Lavender and Kal, while Henry took the bags out.
“Y/N!” Your mom said, opening the door for you. “Hey, mom,” You said as you gave her a hug. Your dad came up and gave you one as well, before taking the car seat from you. Kal looked up at you for permission to follow Lavender, and you nodded, before he scurried off to protect his sister. You stepped away from the door to allow Henry through with the bags, which you took from him while he met your mom.
“You must be Henry!” Your mom said, pulling him into her arms for a hug. You giggled as Henry returned her hug.
“It’s nice to meet you, Mrs. Y/L/N.” He said, and your mom instantly corrected him.
“Please, call me Y/M/N.”
They continued to talk, and you decided to get Lavender out of her seat, as she was looking quite done with being strapped in. You freed her, and she immediately cooed in happiness before snuggling into your chest. You glanced over at Henry, who was talking to your dad about football, and took a seat on the couch. Your mom came over, and took her from you so she could have some cuddles, and you took that opportunity to take the bags to your old bedroom. When you walked in, you smiled as you saw your parents had set up your crib that you had used for Lavender to sleep in.
Henry came in a while later, and helped you unpack the bags, and get everything ready for Lavender to go to sleep. You heard her crying from the living room, and Henry immediately went to her aid. He re-entered the bedroom with her in his arms moments later, and she was handed to you. “She’s hungry, I think. She wasn’t wet or anything.”
“Okay,” You said, and freed your breast to feed her. She latched on, and you sat down against the headboard. Henry watched you out of the corner of his eye as he moved about the room, getting ready for bed. He joined you moments later, and a kiss was pressed to your cheek before he did the same to Lavenders.
“Are you nervous to meet the rest of my family tomorrow?” You questioned Henry, and he gave you a small smile.
“No. I am nervous that I’m going to run into her birth father though. I don’t know how I would be able to stop myself from hurting him.” He admitted, and you grabbed his hand with your free one.
“Don’t worry about him. He won’t hurt us, okay?” You promised, and Henry smiled before laying his head on your shoulder and drifting off to sleep with his eyes locked on his little girl. She was safe.
But, he should have known that wasn’t true. The next morning, your parents had asked you to go on a grocery store run, and the three of you decided to go. Henry was pushing the cart, Lavender was enjoying her new surroundings in her car seat, while you were consulting the list, and putting things in the cart. Henry gazed around at the people also shopping, almost searching for your ex. He realized he shouldn’t be so suspicious, and focused on Lavender again, who was looking at the different coloured fruits and vegetables, her fingers being sucked on in her mouth.
The three of you made your way to the snack aisle, and that’s when it happened. Henry heard what sounded like a curse word come out your mouth just as a man, no older than 25 entered the same aisle as you. He locked eyes with you, and Henry watched as he approached you. Henry looked at you, and he instantly knew who it was.
Lavenders father.
Henry immediately moved the cart so Lavender couldn’t be seen, and stood in between the cart and you, so you were within reaching distance.
“Hey, Y/N.” He said. You rolled your eyes, but turned to face your ex.
“What do you want, Y/E/N?” You said in an exasperated voice.
“Where’s my daughter?” He asked, and Henry moved the cart behind his back a little more. This made your ex look at him, and notice the back of the car seat peaking out from behind Henry. “Who the hell are you?” He asked in a demanding tone.
“I’m Henry.” He stated plainly. He reached out and pulled you closer to him. You turned your head, and buried your face into his chest. You knew he’d protect you and Lavender; he was Superman after all.
“Why are you near my daughter?” Your ex asked in the same demanding tone. Henry felt the anger bubbling up, and did nothing to stop it.
“She’s not your daughter. She’s mine,” Henry said, in the same villainous tone that he had to use for Walker.
Y/E/N scoffed. “Like hell she is. Unless she was cheating on me with you, and I highly doubt that, there is no way in hell that she is your daughter.”
Henry narrowed his eyes before continuing. “You’re right. Biologically, she is not mine, but that doesn’t matter to me. She is my daughter in every other way. You left Y/N the second she told you she was pregnant. She had to be pregnant alone for 9 months, and then parent completely alone for another 2 because you decided you didn’t want the responsibility. She is my daughter. I stepped up when I didn’t have to, simply because I love her mother, and I love her. You don’t.”
“Well I’m here now. Shouldn’t that count for something?”
Henry laughed. “You have no rights to her. I’m the one waking up at night to take care of her so Y/N can sleep. I’m the one that bathes her, changes her, plays with her, and gives her love and protection. The night I met her, I made a promise to myself that I would protect her and her mother for the rest of my life and that is exactly what I am going to do. She is my daughter in every way that matters.”
Y/E/N narrowed his eyes and took a step towards Henry. Henry immediately moved you behind him, as he was anticipating this getting physical. You moved to your daughter, and pushed the cart to the end of the aisle. “I’ll take you to court.”
Henry felt himself slip into his ‘Walker headspace’ as he called it, before he retaliated. “Good luck with that. See, unlike you, I am an actor. Not just any actor too. I’ve played Superman, Geralt of Rivia, Napoleon Solo, and I am now playing August Walker in Mission Impossible for the second time. And, Y/N told me that you’ve seen Fallout, so you know what Walker can do. I make a hell of a lot more money than you do, and I have a much better legal team than you. Not to mention, these muscles,” He motioned to his upper body. “aren’t just for my looks. They’re useful too.” he got right in your ex’s face, to intimidate him before continuing. “I can beat the shit out of little pussy men who think they can come here and threaten my girlfriend and my daughter. Now get the fuck out of here before I recreate the bathroom scene, right here in the aisle.” Henry finished, and turned to face you but not before your ex opened up his mouth again.
“This isn’t over, Y/N. she’s my daughter, and I WILL take her from you.” Henry’s eyes darkened, and turned around. He raised his fist and punched your ex square in the nose so hard that went flying back down the aisle. He walked and stood over him.
“So help me God, you contact me, Y/N or my daughter in ANY way, I will go all August Walker on your ass. I’m sure Tom Cruise would love to help as well.” He spat in your ex’s face. He turned and saw that you were in tears. He ran up to you and enveloped you in a hug.
“It’s okay. He can’t hurt us.” Henry whispered in your ear, as Henry pushed the cart out of the aisle and towards the checkout. “Here,” he said, handing you his card. “Checkout. I’m going to go let the manager know what happened. I’ll see you in the car.” You nodded, and watched as he approached an employee.
You checked out silently, and headed to the car. Lavender had taken notice of how upset you were, and began bowing raspberries in the hopes of cheering you up, which worked. You loaded her, and then the groceries, into the car, before climbing in and fully breaking down. Henry joined you moments later and you were pulled back into his arms.
“You’re okay. I’m sorry I let my anger get the best of me.” he whispered into your hair. You shook your head.
“That’s not why I’m crying. I-I’m scared he’s going to take her away.” Henry hugged to tighter when he heard your broken voice.
“Not gonna happen. I won’t let anything happen to her.” He promised. You nodded, and pulled away so Henry could drive.
You were still shaken up over what happened when you arrived home, immediately disappearing to your bedroom with Lavender. Henry carried the groceries in the house, and helped your mom put them away.
“Did something happen at the store? Y/N seems upset.” She asked.
“Y/E/N was there and he threatened her with taking Lavender from us. I couldnt let that happen, so I threatened him a little, and ended up punching him in the face.” he winced as he finished talking, unsure of what your moms reaction was going to be.
She turned to him, and gave him a high five. “Thank you. I never liked him.” Henry busted out laughing seconds later.
Henry went out for a run with Kal a few hours later, and your mom came upstairs with some lunch for you. You were laying on the bed, watching a movie on on the TV while Lavender napped in the crib.
“Hey, Henry told me what happened. Are you okay?” She asked, offering you the plate with an egg salad sandwich on it. You took it and nodded.
“Yeah, I am. Just a little shaken up is all.” You said, and she took a seat on the bed.
“Okay. You know, your birth father threatened the same thing many times.” She admitted. Your head shot up to look at your mom.
“Really?”
Your mom nodded, and continued. “Yep. But, your dad never let that happen, and I know Henry won’t. I absolutely hate that you are going through what I did with your father, but we both know Henry is going to protect you and her the same way your dad protected you and I. If he becomes an issue, you can always get a restraining order.” You nodded, and watched as your mom pressed a kiss to your temple before walking out.
“Everything’s going to be fine,” You said, as you ate and watched your daughters chest move up and down rhythmically. She was safe.
A/N Pt 2: I just thought i’d clarify that when i say ‘father’ and ‘dad’ i mean two completely different things. To me, a ‘father’ is the one who is biologically related to the child, and a ‘dad’ is the one who raises the child. Anyone can be a father, but it takes a real man to be a dad.

“Do you have plans tonight?” Charlie’s voice came from behind you, causing you to jump. 
You spun around to find him and Owen, staring at you expectantly. 
“No, why?” You questioned. 
“It’s Valentine’s Day.” Owen said, giving you a look like it was obvious as to why they were asking. 
“And?” You had never really been one to care for Valentine’s Day, hating the commercialism and how expensive candy got around that date. 
“And we were wondering if you had plans. You know, some handsome mystery man to take you to dinner and buy you roses and kiss you when he drops you home.” Charlie pretended to swoon and Owen smacked him. 
“Dude.” Owen groaned. You smiled slightly. 
“Yeah, no. No handsome mystery man, no roses and definitely no kisses. Just me, a bottle of red wine and the movie Valentine’s Day.” You said. As much as you hated the day, you had a tradition to uphold. 
Every year since it had been released you had watched Valentine’s Day, a tradition fueled purely by your love for Taylor Swift and your celebrity crush on Taylor Lautner. You knew the movie was cheesy but you couldn’t help but watch it every year. It was a tradition after all. 
“Want company?” Owen asked, snapping you out of your thoughts. 
“What, you two don’t have hot dates with pretty girls?” You teased. 
“That depends, are you gonna say yes to letting us join you?” Charlie flirted. You smacked his arm lightly and he grinned cheekily at you. 
“Fine. But one of you is ordering me takeout. And bring more wine, I don’t want to share mine. Be there at 7.” 
And with that you spun around and walked away, leaving the two boys to high five behind you. 
Exactly 7pm on the dot there was a knock on the door of your apartment. 
You opened the door to find Owen and Charlie, flowers and wine in their hands and large grins on their faces. 
“Wow, did hell freeze over? You two are actually on time.” You teased. 
“Couldn’t keep our date waiting.” Owen grinned, handing you the bouquet of roses in his hands and you smiled softly at the sweet gesture, pressing a gentle kiss to his cheek. 
“Thank you.” You said. Owen blushed slightly, stepping past you so that you could greet Charlie, who was waiting, two bottles of red wine in his hands. When you looked at him he lifted the bottles. 
“I brought alcohol.” Charlie grinned. You laughed. 
“Perfect way to my heart.” You joked, placing a kiss on his cheek too. 
“Come on, let’s get settled and order some food, I’m starving.” 
You lead them into your living room, the movie already loaded up on the TV, three wine glasses waiting on the coffee table. 
“Figure out what we’re having for dinner, I’m gonna put these in a vase.” You told them, taking one of the wine bottles from Charlie to place in the fridge. They nodded, settling down on either end of your small couch. 
You left them to discuss, entering your kitchen and finding a vase, filling it with water for the roses. 
“Y/N, do you eat Chinese food?” Owen called. You nodded, before realising they couldn’t see you. 
“Yeah.” You replied. 
“Great, what do you want?” Owen’s voice came again. 
“Sweet and Sour Chicken, and Fried Rice.” You said, re-entering the room. Owen nodded, pressing a few things on his phone. 
“Okay it’s ordered. 25 minutes it says.” He informed you. 
“Awesome, should we start the movie?” You suggested. The boys nodded. You sat down between them, on the edge of the couch to pour the three glasses of wine, offering one to each of them. 
Once you all had a glass of wine you pressed play on the movie, before settling back into the couch, smiling to yourself when both boys leaned into you. You loved how affectionate the boys were, and you just knew this was going to be a great night. 
Twenty five minutes later there was a knock at your door. You paused the movie, Charlie going to pay for and collect the food while you grabbed some paper plates from the kitchen to save washing up later on. 
“Fancy.” Owen laughed when you brought the plates back into the room. You grinned. 
“Only the best for our fancy date.” You teased. Charlie re-entered the room, your food in hand, and in no time at all you were all tucking into the food, the movie continuing to play as you ate. 
“We should probably go, we have to be on set early tomorrow.” Owen said as the credits played, Today Was A Fairytale filling the room. You nodded, understanding. 
The three of you stood up and you walked them to the door, waiting as they pulled their shoes back on. 
“Thank you for this.” You spoke. “This was way better than watching it alone.” 
“And way less pathetic.” Charlie joked. 
“True.” You agreed. Charlie leaned in, pressing a soft kiss to your cheek before pulling away. 
“Um, pretty sure that wasn’t in your plan.” You said. Charlie frowned. 
“Remember earlier? A handsome mystery man taking me to dinner and buying me roses and kissing me when he drops me home?” You reminded him. “Owen brought me flowers, and you brought me dinner, so where’s my kiss?” 
Both boys hesitated, not quite knowing what you expected from them. You rolled your eyes playfully. 
“I’ll do it myself then.” You said, stepping towards Charlie and placing a quick kiss on his lips, before repeating your actions with Owen, blaming the wine in your system for your boldness. 
“Doesn’t count, the handsome mystery man was supposed to kiss you.” Charlie spoke up after a moment, clearly regaining his confidence. Owen was still staring at you, wide eyed. Charlie took a step closer, leaning in to kiss you again but you pushed him away with a laugh. 
“Nice try Gillespie.” You said and he grinned. 
“Was worth a shot. Come on Owen.” He grabbed onto the blond boy’s shoulder, Owen startling slightly at the contact. You giggled slightly, watching as Charlie dragged Owen down the hallway. 
And as they rounded the corner you shut the door with a grin. 
Maybe Valentine’s Day wasn’t so bad after all.

You Know Just What I Need.
Head of Security!Reader x Bucky Barnes AU.
Run-through: Freshly out of uni, Bucky Barnes comes back to live in his family home. Given he’s the only son of a billionaire, he needs security around at all times. And his dad puts you in charge of his son’s safety until he comes home from a business trip. You intend on doing your job as perfectly as always, but what you didn’t know it that Bucky is a spoilt brat who is only interested in pestering you and making your life a living hell… until eventually you are left with no other choice but to teach him a lesson in order for him to learn how to behave.
Themes: spoilt brat!Bucky, smut, fluff, slight dom!reader,
a/n: I was re-reading my bodyguard!stucky au the other day and I thought, what if the roles were reversed…? Enjoy!
Tumblr media
“He’s here.”
One of the guards spoke through the comms, signaling you that Bucky Barnes was here. You were in the monitor room upstairs, watching over all the live footage of security cameras placed around the Barnes’ property. You observed the one at the gate and watched how the expensive car made its way through the gates.
He’s here.
You walked out of the room and made your way downstairs, on your way to meet your boss’ only son. You were the head of security, working for Mr. Barnes. You led an entire team who helped you in directing the rest of the staff employed by Barnes. Whenever your boss was away – which was always – every decision regarding the properties and companies went through you first.
Security processes, new policies, and most financial decisions, legal or illegal transactions – basically everything needed your seal of approval when the boss was away. You and Mr. Barnes had a comfortable bond since day one, he trusted you immensely, which is why you had been handed over the responsibility of taking care of his son, Bucky, until the latter’s father comes back from a business trip.
Basically the son was your responsibility for the coming weeks. Rumor had it that the young man was a nightmare; the complete opposite of his father. Since your job allowed it, you stalked him on his many social media platforms as soon as you received the phone call from your boss, just to get an insight of what you were getting into. You spent hours scrolling through the many pictures Bucky posts all the time. And so far, you gathered that he was; a brat, a party animal, spends his father’s money like it’s no one’s business on expensive cars and clothing. He enjoyed the finer things in life.
Oh well, you thought to yourself, this one is going to be quite a handful. Besides, rich kids hate security anyways.
 You got downstairs and found some of the guards standing at the foyer, you joined them and they all gave you courteous nods. You noticed how they all stopped slouching as soon as you approached them, they stood straight. You smirked a little. Your job did require you to be somewhat intimidating and controlling, but you liked it. You quite enjoyed the power which came along the job.
In less than a minute, he finally walked through the doors; the one and only – Bucky. He entered the house with a gait which radiated arrogance. You refrained from rolling your eyes at him and his almost visible cockiness. But, you expected no less.
Dressed in all black, leather jacket and boots; you had to admit he was an attractive young man.
“Well, well, there’s nothing better than coming home after 5 years and being welcomed by a group of guards!” he sassed, looking at the guys. And you saw how he did a double take when he saw you. He did that thing that most men do when they see you for the first time; stare.
Perfect hair, minimal makeup, bold red lip, high heels for the aesthetics and wearing a tailored black suit with a white button down shirt – you looked great and you knew it. So you let him stare, just like you let all of them stare. Only not many men approached you, most of them were intimidated.
But Bucky wasn’t one of those, no. Bucky was shameless, and cocky and confident. He walked right up to you, eyed you up and down and smirked.
“Aren’t you a sight for sore eyes! What’s your name, beautiful?” he asked, surprising you a little. But surprising the rest of the guards even more. They all turned their heads in sync to look at the exchange between you and Bucky. Because no one ever dared to talk to you like that before.
You smirked and tilted your head up just a little, looked Bucky right in the eyes. “Y/N. Head of security. My team and I were appointed by your father to keep you away from trouble until he gets back home. Because you’re unable to do so on your own despite being a grown man.” You answered with a straight face and nothing but sarcasm lacing your words.
Bucky was a little taken aback, usually women melt under his stare – but not you. He heard a chuckle or two come from the group of guards who stood nearby and he felt a little, just a little intimidated. But he liked that. You were fiery, and he was digging it. “Anything else, Mr. Barnes?” you asked again, breaking his little reverie.
He shook his head. “No.” he still had that damn smirk on his face.
You faked smiled at him. “Very well then, Wilson will show you to your room. He and Quill will be your bodyguards for the days to come.” You briefly explained, and pointed to Sam and Peter.
Bucky spared them a dirty look and by the time he looked back at you, you began walking away. “Hey, wait!” he called out after you. You stopped and turned around, refraining from rolling your eyes again. Bucky smirked, and walked over to you again.
“Why can’t you be my bodyguard? You seem badass enough for that. Besides, we could really have a lot of fun together you and I.” he finished with a wink.
You flashed him another faint, fake smile. “Mr. Barnes, you should know that I have a lot more important things that require my attention. My team needs me to help run your father’s company while he’s away. I can’t possibly do that and babysit you at the same time.” You leaned in just a little and whispered the last sentence just so the guys won’t hear you.
Bucky chuckled as you stared at him for another second before turning around, leaving him behind again. And oh did he enjoy watching you walk away. He had never had any woman be so uninterested in him before. So this was very new to him. And he was intrigued.
 Like you said, his two bodyguards showed him to his room where he spent the rest of the day. He thought of you, shamelessly, while he showered. Self-abusing himself under the warm water as he thought of your bold personality, and those irresistible eyes of yours… and your red lips, and your body… and the way you carried yourself, confidence and power surrounding you. He had only met you hours ago, but he wanted you. Bad.
He made a mental note to pester you and annoy you until you finally give in. because he was Bucky Barnes, whatever he wanted he got. And right now there was nothing more he wanted than you. Bucky didn’t know exactly where or how this would go, but one thing he knew for sure – he had to have you.
---
The next two days were absolutely terrible. Actually, the days were fine; it’s Bucky who made them terrible.
It started out when your boss called you, asking you if you could stay under the same roof as his son. For the latter’s safety and well-being, because there was no one else he trusted around his son more than you. Not having the heart to say no to the old man, you agreed.
Bucky was excited when he heard this decision made by his father. And suddenly, all of his shirts went missing. He paraded around with just his sweatpants on, purposely entering and leaving the room which you were in several times just to get your attention.
Sure it was annoying, but you couldn’t complain much; he was fit. Now you knew why he had so many girls around him all the time on all of his social media posts. The guy was hot!
He annoyed you even more by constantly flirting with you, without hesitation. Or he would do this thing where he would purposely walk by you, and make sure his body brushes against yours each time. But you worked for his dad so there was nothing you could do or say. However no matter what he did, he was never disrespectful.
He even tried to have your number, to which you denied at first. Then he thought he blackmailed you by saying what if he gets in trouble one day and how he should have it just in case. And you rolled your eyes and gave him your number just so he would shut up.
But he didn’t.
Given you had to live with him, you settled in one of the many guest bedrooms. You chose the one on the ground floor, trying to be as far away from Bucky’s room as possible. But still, he annoyed you all through the night by texting you incessantly. And it was always cheesy texts which made you question how is he a 25 year old adult;
‘I can’t sleep. Come cuddle me?’
‘I know you’re awake. Are you possibly thinking about me? ;)’
‘I would sleep better with you here with me yk’
‘I’m all alone… in my bed… thinking of you… with my hand wrapped around my big… Bible because I pray to God that one of these days you respond to my messages jfc’
 You would never respond to any of his messages. You would just laugh and turn your phone on silent each night before going to bed.
It’s alright, you told yourself, I can keep him safe and ignore him at the same time, right?
 Wrong.
A few days later, Bucky received an invite to a prestigious party being held in the city by one of his father’s closest friend and long-time business ally. And given his dad wasn’t here, Bucky was the one who would have to go in his place, he couldn’t possibly miss it.
But there was a problem – Bucky needed a date.
 “Absolutely not.” You denied him right when he came into the study room, where you were dealing with paperwork, asking you to be his date for the party tomorrow.
He sighed dramatically. “Why not? If you go as my date, you could keep an eye on me as well.” He approached you by the book shelf and stood a little too close. He leaned in and whispered, “Because I tend to misbehave a lot.” He breathed in your ear in his deep, velvety voice.
And you felt a tingle dance down your spine when he whispered in your ear, but you convinced yourself it was nothing.
You thought over it. His dad had specifically asked not to let him go anywhere on his own. Plus, you wouldn’t trust him on his own. Lately even Sam and Peter had been complaining that he could be unmanageable.
“Fine.” You agreed on going as his date to the party.
---
The lavish party was being held at an equally grand mansion.
You should have known it was a bad idea to come here as Bucky’s date. Because not only was he absolutely shameless and flirty, and annoying but this spoilt brat also took the liberty to tell everyone that you were his girlfriend before you could stop him or correct him.  
And soon, you two became the talk of the room; he noticed that the men gave him envious glares while you noticed that the ladies gave you envious glares.
“We look great together.” He whispered in your ear and proceeded to lean down and kiss your cheek and pulled you closer while the two of you were slow dancing, after he begged you to. And you had to keep fake smiling as you looked up at him with nothing but annoyance in your eyes.
You kept your hands around his shoulders while he smirked and placed one of his hand right on your butt. “Come on, admit it.” He said, full of cockiness.
You gently moved his hand from your ass to the side of your leg, where your thigh holster was, with a handgun in it. His smirk disappeared for a few moments as he felt the gun through your stunning evening gown and you smirked this time, looking up at him.
Just for show, you leaned in to kiss his cheek as well. “Try that again and I’ll shoot you and make it seem like an accident.” You whispered in his ear and pulled away to fake smile at him.
Bucky chuckled. “Can’t tell if you threatened me or turned me on even more, babe.” He whispered, winking at you and you rolled your eyes at him.
 You left the dimmed dance floor as soon as the song ended. And you went to grab your clutch and went to get a drink at the bar. You sipped on it lazily, then noticed that Bucky wasn’t by your side yet; annoying you like he had been all night. You turned around, expecting to find him near you somewhere. But you didn’t see him.
You panicked for a moment. But then your phone rang in your clutch. You answered it immediately once you saw that it was Bucky.
“Where the hell are you?” you whisper-yelled through the phone.
He chuckled. “Aww, miss me already? Can’t even leave you for a few minutes? Jesus, you’re so obsessed with me.” He sounded just as cocky as ever. And even though you couldn’t see him, you knew he had that damn smirk on his face right now.
You sighed, less worried now that you knew he was alright. “Bucky, where are you?” you asked, your tone serious.
“We have a problem.” He answered.
“We?”
“Well I do, but you’ll have to fix it. It’s bad.” He spoke again.
You sighed again. “Everyone here already thinks I’m dating you. What could be worse?”
He fake gasped over the phone. “Wow that hurt. Okay but seriously, I spilled my drink all over my shirt. I have another set of clothes in the car. I need your help, please.”
“Where are you?” you asked, clearly annoyed but you had no other choice but to help him.
“Upstairs’ library.”
You ended the call in his face and sighed again. You swallowed the rest of your champagne and asked one of the guards who came with you to go get Bucky’s clothes. You managed to hide from the crowd and get to him in less than a few minutes.
And there he was, standing in the middle of the spacious library. Shirtless, hands in his pockets. And with his signature smirk on.
“That was quick.” He sounded amazed, “Can’t away from me for long, can you babe?” he tilted his head to the side and gave you one of his famous smirks.
You rolled your eyes at him and handed him the shirt and tie on a hanger. “Seriously, get dressed.” You wouldn’t lie, you did check him for a few seconds because sure he was an annoyance, but he had a body to die for. Abs, Adonis belt, a sinful trail of hair starting from his lower stomach all the way down to-
“Take your time. I’m not going anywhere, stare all you want.” He sounded cocky once he caught you checking him out. He leaned in closer, “I’m all yours.”
You sighed again, crossing your arms over your chest. “Oh please. I don’t have time for young, immature boys.” You gave him another one of your fake smiles and turned around to leave. But he stopped you again.
You turned back around to face him as he finished buttoning up his shirt. “What?” you sounded like you were done with him.
He didn’t say anything, he just lifted the tie up to your face and gave you another idiotic but somewhat adorable grin.
Of course, you should’ve known he couldn’t tie his own tie. You wouldn’t even be surprised if he didn’t know how to knot his own shoelaces. You grabbed the black tie and walked up to him, throwing it around his neck and stepped up closer to tie it into a perfect knot. He stared at you the whole time.
“You’re really pretty, you know that?” he pointed out, with a big smile on his pretty face.
You glared at him, then looked back down to focus on getting the knot right. And he spoke up again, “I said, you’re really pretty y-,”
You cut him off. “I heard you the first time. I’m seven years older than you, so quit it.” you clarified, thinking the age gap would be a turn off for him. But it was quite the contrary.
He smirked when he heard that you were older. “That’s hot.” He commented, and honestly you expected no less from him. You glared at him again and he casually wrapped his arms around you and pulled you close to him. So close that his lips almost touched yours.
You tried ignoring how your heart fluttered.
“I have a gun on me right now, I suggest you behave before I do something we both regret.” You spoke monotonously, as always and he just smirked.
“I get all tingly when you threaten me like that, babe.” He was incessant.
You abruptly tightened the tie way too much on purpose and his eyes widened for a second as he struggled to breathe for a moment. You pulled his face closer to yours by tugging on the tie. “Enough.” You whispered, looking him dead in the eyes and making it just a little uncomfortable for him to breathe.
You let go of him after a few seconds and walked away without another word said. And once again, he didn’t shut up when he should have. “You look even better when you’re walking away!” he called out after you and it took you all your willpower not to turn around and punch his perfect, chiseled face.
---
As you expected, Bucky didn’t give up trying to annoy you. Even days after the party, he wouldn’t stop following you around and annoying you at all times. But you had to put up with it, because you knew that the closer he is to you, the better you can watch over him. But oh God was he annoying.
He lazily walked over to the couch where you were sat at in the living room one afternoon. You were replying to some emails for work, and filling in Bucky’s dad at the same time. Of course, through text you made it seem like his son was perfect and well-behaved, when in reality… well, not so.
Bucky sighed dramatically, trying to get your attention but you purposely didn’t want to give him the satisfaction so you kept typing. He groaned and plopped down right next to you on the couch, and you didn’t have to turn your head to look at him to know that he was shirtless again, with that damn smirk on his pretty face.
“I’m bored.” He complained, whining like a child and he was sat so close to you that he was almost leaning on you. He casually placed his hand on your knee and you immediately slapped his hand away.
“Bucky, I’m working.” You said, using your ‘don’t disturb me’ voice. But he didn’t care. He never cared.
“But I’m bored.” He whined again, and took the liberty to just shut your laptop while you were clearly in the middle of some serious work. You didn’t want to waste energy on telling him off so you just closed your eyes, calmed yourself down and turned to face him finally.
He grinned like he won something. “Okay. What do you want?” you asked, keeping a polite face on so as not to give him one of your famous resting bitch faces.
He smirked. “You.” he answered with a wink and you rolled your eyes at him. And he quickly mumbled an apology that he didn’t mean and sat up straight. “Okay, let’s go out. I need to buy some stuff.”
You stared at him with a straight face, and sighed; agreeing. “Fine.” You stand up and walk towards your temporary bedroom.
“Where are you going?” he asked.
“I need to change.” You replied, without turning around.
He smirked to himself. “You don’t need to look extra pretty for me. I already like you quite a lot.” He didn’t get a reply this time, not even a glare. He just heard you sigh really loudly and slam the door of the bedroom shut really loudly. He chuckled to himself.
 He waited for you at the stairs by the front door. And he had his sunglasses on so you didn’t see the way his eyes widened when he saw you step outside in another outfit; a bit more casual than your usual suits.
Black, long-sleeved turtle neck with a grey colored pleated tennis skirt. You looked… hot.
“Staring is rude.” You sasses once you noticed he was indeed eyeing you up and down.
He smirked as you walked past him and got down the stairs, making your way to the car which was waiting for the two of you.
“Didn’t take you to be a skirt kinda girl. You’re more like a sexy suits and guns kinda girl. I mean, I love it.” he took the liberty to comment on your style.
You stopped right before you got into the driver’s seat and faced him with another fake smile. “Yeah well, it’s practical. You can’t see the handgun in my thigh holster, can you?” you smirked and got into the car.
Bucky took a few seconds to process everything. As if your appearance and you being out of his league wasn’t torture enough, now he had the image of you with a thigh holster permanently in his brain. And oh was that doing things to him. He didn’t even know he liked older, badass women until now.
Now, he was crushing on you harder than he intended to.
-
He was just as audacious and flirty in the car as always. He said he wanted to shop so you took him to the chic and expensive part of the city; where the rich kids usually go to spend mommy and daddy’s money.
Sam and Peter were in the car as well. Because Bucky was unpredictable, and you could always use more security guards around him given he was an absolute man-child. And to annoy you even further, as you walked beside him from store to store, he held your hand in his.
You would always let go of his hand, but he’d reach out to grab it again tighter each time and at some point you gave up and let him hold your hand. Again, you couldn’t have him wander off on his own so the closer he was to you, the better. Sam and Peter followed you two, trying to blend in as much as possible.
Bucky kept carelessly buying everything that fit his aesthetic; shoes, watches, jackets and everything else he didn’t bother checking the price tags of. And while he was being a difficult client, trying on everything and making a mess, you just stood there on your phone – occasionally looking at him and rolling your eyes at how extra he was.
“Do you really need that many shoes and watches?” you complained, stepping out of yet another store and already making your way to the other one. You were getting tired, and you weren’t a women who quite like shopping in general, so Bucky was just too much.
“Hey, don’t judge. I have a rep to maintain, besides I…” Bucky kept talking as you entered the next very expensive looking boutique, your hand still in his but you zoned out completely as you caught the stare of another pair of familiar blue eyes right upon stepping into the building.
Steve.
You were somewhat surprised upon seeing him so unexpectedly. But then again, it wasn’t too surprising because he was a man with expensive taste as well. You lingered around Bucky while he looked around, but all your attention was on Steve – who stared at you. Or maybe he was staring at Bucky more.
Eventually, Bucky grabbed a ton of clothes and went on try them; leaving you behind. Sam and Peter were right outside in the car, but that meant that you were alone inside the spacious store and there was nowhere for you to go as Steve began walking towards you. For a second you debated stepping out and joining Sam and Peter in the car while you waited for Bucky, but it was too late, Steve was too close by the time you thought of it.
You panicked, but you had perfected the calm and composed face so you put that on as he got closer and closer. You knew there was no way you could avoid him now.
“Y/N, hey.” He greeted you with a smile.
You returned him a fake one. “Steve, hello.” You kept your voice steady and monotonous, not letting your irritation and uncomfortableness show.
He stepped closer like he was an old friend, invading your personal space like it was nothing. Then again, he never cared much about you. “How come you’re here? You don’t even like shopping.” He pointed out, surprising you with how he still remembered that little detail about you.
You maintained the fake smile on your face and crossed your arms over your chest out of habit. “Yeah well, people change Steve.”
He chuckled dryly. “Is it that boy you came with? Did he bring about that change?” he asked, clearly jealous and bitter – like he always was.
You smirked. “That’s none of your business.” You were still calm but you could see it in his eyes; his anger slowly building up.
He scoffed. “What, you’re dating young boys now? He looks too young for you, seriously Y/N.” Steve commented, rudely and stepped closer to you – forcing you to take a small step backwards. “You need a man to take care of you, remember that.” he whispered, reaching out to twirl a lock of your with his fingers.
You didn’t know what to say to him, but luckily you heard Bucky’s voice speak up behind Steve.
 Bucky stepped out of the changing room with the piles of expensive jackets and sweaters he intended to buy and he stepped out with a grin, excited to see you roll your eyes at him. He enjoyed annoying you for some weird reasons. But his smiled morphed into a frown the moment he saw another man standing too close to you.
Bucky dumped all the clothes on the couch nearby and stared at the guy. Slightly long hair, facial hair, dressed in a sharp suit; the good looking bastard was talking to you, and Bucky didn’t like it. He approached the two of you, eavesdropping like it’s no one’s business.
“…You need a man to take care of you, remember that.” the guy said, while toying with a lock of your hair.
The audacity, Bucky thought to himself, I haven’t even touched her hair yet.
“She doesn’t need anybody. Now back the fuck away from my girl.” Bucky said out loud, not bothering about whether the workers heard or not. They probably did given they were most likely eavesdropping just like he was.
The guy turned around to face him. Bucky was ready to throw punches but the guy didn’t initiate anything so he kept his calm as well. But on the inside he was raging. He wondered why he was so bothered by some other man talking to you. Maybe, he liked you a lot more than he thought.
The guy scoffed and walked away without another word said, probably choosing not to make a scene. Once he left, Bucky looked at you with worry in his eyes.
“Are you okay?” he asked, stepping closer to you. And surprisingly, unlike Steve’s proximity, you didn’t mind Bucky’s.
You nodded and refused to look him in the eyes. He understood and grabbed your hand and walked out of the building and into the car.
After an exchange of drivers, all of you made your way home. You were quiet, as always, focusing on the road. But Bucky was quiet as well, which was weird. You wanted to comment on it, but you decided not to. It wasn’t uncomfortable anyways.
A few minutes later, he spoke up.
“That was Rogers, wasn’t it? Dad’s business rival?” he asked, referring to Steve.
You nodded.
“Do you… Is he… how do you… I mean, he’s-,” Bucky struggled to find the right way to ask you about how you know Steve like that. So you cut off his rambling and answered the question he truly had.
“He’s my ex.” You said.
And then the silence was back for a few minutes. Sam and Peter pretended not to be in the car.
Bucky spoke up again, “May I ask why you broke up? It’s none of my-,”
You cut him off and answered again. You had nothing to hide, besides, Bucky sort of saved you back there. “He wanted me to quit my job, and stay at home and have his children. But I wanted to work and settle down later in life so… yeah.” you simplified it as much as you could for him.
He nodded slowly, before scoffing loudly. “Well what an ass! He doesn’t deserve you. Anyone worth being with you would be so fucking proud of what a badass woman you are. And how well you do your job and manage all of this all on your own. I mean, you’re beautiful as hell too and I-,”
You cut him off again, with a genuine smile and shaking your head at him. “Alright, alright enough buttering me up. What do you want?” you asked, smirking.
He gasped dramatically. “What? No, I meant what I said. You’re beautiful and amazing and badass.” He truly meant it. He hadn’t realized he admired you so much. He had never felt like this, so to lighten up the mood he added, “But since you’re asking, can I please go out with my friends tonight, alone?” as expected, he asked with an adorable face.
The kind you have problem saying no to. But you absolutely had to.
“No. Your dad strictly said no parties, no clubbing, no coming home drunk. You’re not in uni anymore, Bucky. When you’re dad gets back, you will join the business and someday, you’ll take over. You need to start acting responsible.” you repeated his dad’s words to him and he almost whined like the spoilt brat he is.
“But it’s not a party.” He argued. “I won’t get drunk.”
You turned to look at him briefly. “What is it then?”
“It’s a thing.” He replied. This man was seriously a 5 year old child.
“What thing?” you asked in your serious voice and he sulked.
“Just a thing.” He said, looking down at his lap. Just looking at him would tell you that he hadn’t heard ‘no’ a lot in his life.
“No. And stop sulking, you’re twenty five years old. Act like it.” you announced your final decision that he’s not allowed to leave the house alone. Definitely not for a party.
And you expected him to listen and not make things more difficult for you. But you should’ve known that Bucky wasn’t one to behave.
 ---
You woke up around 2 a.m. to countless messages, missed calls and emails. Your phone kept going off non-stop so you decided to check it. Some of the other members of the teams kept sending you screenshots of paparazzi pics of Bucky at some illegal car race taking place in the outskirts of the city.
And you were confused for a minute, because hours ago he said he was going to bed. You grabbed your phone tightly in your hand and jumped out of your bed, and ran upstairs. Your rapid footsteps on the stairs seemed to have caught Sam and Peter’s attention as well because they happened to be right behind you when you rushed into Bucky’s empty room.
He wasn’t here. He must’ve snuck out to go to a freaking car race!
“Why didn’t the alarm go off?” you turned to face the two guards and they looked at you sheepishly. Oh this was bad.
“He must’ve turned it off before leaving.” Peter answered, just as worried as you were. All of your jobs could be at stake here. But of course, the spoilt brat didn’t care about any of that.
“I don’t care what it takes but find him. And bring him home. I need to make a few calls and have these pictures taken down before his father finds out. Go, now!” you raised your voice a little and Sam and Peter rushed out of the room. And a few seconds later you heard two cars leaving the property.
Meanwhile, you were worried sick and angry and scared. You grabbed your phone and proceeded to disturb a lot of people who could help you take these pictures down before Mr. Barnes finds out.
You also made a mental note to have a talk with Bucky when he does eventually come back home. You would try not to lose your temper, but it seems like he needs to be given a lecture about all the things he’s not allowed to do. Disabling the alarm and sneaking out for example.
-
You promised you would keep your calm. And that you would talk to him without losing your temper. But the minute he walked into the house, at around 6 a.m., accompanied by Sam and Peter who somehow managed to find him at some beach and dragged him out of a party and now brought him home.
You saw the smirk on his clearly somewhat drunk face and your anger took over.
“Hi beautiful.” He said, smirking and then pointed to both guards, “You sent a search party, looks like you missed me.” He sassed.
And you couldn’t control yourself anymore. Your anger could be seen on your face as you marched towards him rapidly, and out of nowhere grabbed him by the collar threateningly. You were livid. And Sam and Peter chose to stay out of this one because oh boy, you weren’t one to mess with when you were angry.
“When the hell will you fucking learn, huh?” you yelled in his face.
He was still sobering up thanks to the coffee Sam got him but even he knew that he had messed up this time by the look on your face. He was surprised at how physical you were. Part of him knew it was wrong but he couldn’t help but feel a rush either. He was torn between scared of what your anger will entail, but also being turned on a little.
“Where the fuck have you been? Your dad specifically asked for you not to go out on your own because he has not been seeing eye-to-eye with a lot of people lately! And there is a lot more people than you think out there who could be after you just to hurt you and mess with your dad!” you yelled and Bucky was surprised.
He didn’t know this. Neither did Sam and Peter or the rest of the guys. Mr. Barnes trusted you immensely, so he told you some of his dark secrets. This was one of them, which is why he was so strict regarding the rules Bucky had to follow now that he was back home. And this revelation shocked everyone in the room.
You tugged on his collar a little more, and his body jerked forward a little and he was surprised at how physically strong you were. But he still didn’t say a word. “Do you know how many phone calls I had to make to take those pictures down and make sure your dad doesn’t find out? But you don’t care, do you?”
Bucky felt a pang of guilt at your words.
“You don’t care about anyone else but you! You are a spoilt, selfish brat! I know you’re not used to it, but at least try, damn it! Try and care about your dad’s reputation, about our jobs which involves taking care of your ungrateful, stuck up ass!”
He had never felt so guilty before, nor had anyone ever dared to point out his mistakes so vividly like you did just now. And you weren’t wrong, Bucky never cared about the consequences of his actions. Let alone about how his reckless habits could affect someone else.
“Disabling the alarm and sneaking out, look I don’t know who the fuck you think you are Bucky, but you sure as hell aren’t a kid anymore! Fucking act like an adult!” you yelled again.
He hadn’t thought, before sneaking out, that if anything bad does happen; you might lose your job. Not just you, but all the guards and everyone else in your team. And now he was ashamed.
With one last tug, you let go of his collar and panted, trying to control your breathing and anger. You stepped away and pressed the top of the bridge of your nose; already feeling a headache forming due to all the stress. You ran a hand over your face, sighing in relief that he was home but also in annoyance at how childish and careless he could be.
“Now go shower, get some sleep and sober up.” You looked up into his ocean blue eyes which showed nothing but guilt and shame, as they should. “And for fuck’s sake, stop making my life a living hell.” You spat bitterly and turned around to walk away.
You still had a lot to do and take care of today, and this day began with a rough start and you didn’t even get a good night of sleep. And it was barely even 7 a.m. yet, to say you were cranky would be an understatement.
-
You had extra work to do today, given Bucky’s previous rebellious actions. Along with the usual work load you had, which made today extra hectic and your mood was off as well. Your team had dealt with the paparazzi situation wonderfully. Mr. Barnes didn’t know a thing. But that didn’t mean that you were on speaking terms with Bucky.
You saw him less than usual throughout the day. Once in the kitchen, where you were making coffee and he dropped by to try and talk to you but he saw the look on your face and turned back around without saying a word. Then another time when you were in the living room, and he walked by without saying a word. The tension between the two of you was real.
He felt so guilty that it seemed like it was eating him alive. Plus, he hated how your mood was shitty all because of him. He wanted to apologize, but couldn’t. He didn’t know how to, because he never had to. But he knew he should. Because he messed up big time, driven by his arrogance and recklessness.
He hated how you were mad at him. He realized that these past weeks, the highlights of his days has been getting your attention and watch you roll your eyes at him, and replying to his sarcasm with even more sarcasm. Now his day just seemed dry and empty, and he wanted so badly to make things right.
You weren’t exactly ecstatic after yelling at him like that either. Usually your days consisted of shaking your head at Bucky’s silly messages and replying to none of them, or trying so hard not to laugh at his terrible jokes, and allowing him to hold your hand in his whenever you were out. You wouldn’t lie, you did miss his harmless mischief.
But he had to be told off. He was getting way out of hand.
 -
You turned in for the night earlier than usual, and right when you got out of the shower someone knocked on your bedroom door. Forgetting that you were in your bathrobe, you rushed to open the door thinking it might be one of the guards coming to tell you that Bucky had run off again.
But you were somewhat surprised when you found Bucky himself standing on the other side, scratching the back of his neck nervously. You didn’t say anything, you let him feel the awkward silence, and he deserved it. But then it got way too quiet so you spoke up.
“Don’t you own a shirt?” you asked, leaning against the door frame and eyeing his perfect body. He was shirtless again, what’s new.
Bucky tried so hard not to look at your cleavage, but he failed miserably. “I do. I just thought that if I look hot enough, you’d maybe forgive me quicker.” He voiced out his inner thoughts shamelessly.
You sighed. Guess he’ll never grow up, huh?
“Is this how you apologize after almost fucking up all of our lives and jeopardizing my job?” you asked, sarcastically in a monotonous tone for extra effect.
He sighed and looked down. Bad idea because now he got a good view of your legs peeking through the slit of the robe. He was once again, torn – debating between begging for your forgiveness or just say ‘fuck it’ and lean in for that kiss he’s been desperate for since he saw you.
He went with the latter.
Bucky barely gave you time to process anything as he gently pushed you inside the room, shut the door behind him, wrapped his arms around you and pulled your body closer to his as he placed his mouth on yours.
You were surprised, and you knew it was wrong, but you didn’t hate it. He kissed you feverishly, with ardor and passion and everything else he felt for you. He poured it all out through the kiss. Like he was coaxing you into forgiving him.
Bucky’s mouth moved perfectly with yours, his arms tightened their grip around your waist and your hands slid into his hair. You tugged on it gently as he started walking the two of you backwards, towards the bed.
He laid you down on the mattress and climbed on top of you, still not breaking the kiss. And you had to admit, he was a great kisser. He nibbled on your lower lip before pushing his tongue past your lips; gently stroking the top of your mouth while his hand slowly undid the knot at the front of your robe. Once it loosened enough, he reached out to grab your left breast; squeezing it and making you whine under him.
He smirked through the kiss. He had been waiting for this for way too long and now he finally had you. Bucky further unwrapped the robe from around your body and toyed with your breasts while he kissed you deeply. And when one of his hands started slowly making its way down your body and between your legs, that’s when you pulled away from the kiss and stared into his eyes; breathless from his kiss.
Bucky panicked. What if you pushed him off now? Or worse, what if he had angered you even more?
But instead, you smirked and pushed him down; flipping the two of you around so that now you straddled him. You settled comfortably around his waist, your robe barely covering your body but neither one of you cared. Bucky looked up at you with nothing but adoration and lust.
You leaned down to gently brush your lips with his. His hands immediately rubbed up and down your sides lovingly. “You put me in a lot of trouble today, you know that?” you whispered, your lips brushing with his ever so gently with each word and his heart raced.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know.” he mumbled, reaching up to try and press his lips to yours, but you pulled away really quickly.
“Sorry doesn’t make it better.” you spoke sternly. “You’re still a spoilt brat.”
Bucky smirked and supported his upper body up on his elbows, with you still straddling his waist; your core pressing down on his crotch. “And what are you gonna do about it?” he sassed and tried to ignore how fast his heart was beating as you reached out to slowly traced his mouth with your finger.
He bit his lip as your finger slowly trailed down his face, along his neck and down till his abs; so slowly that you could feel his muscles tensing underneath your touch. You smirked when you noticed the effect you have on him, and how he couldn’t help but stare at your almost naked body.
“You need to learn how to do as you’re told sometimes.” You trailed your fingertips back up his body, making him squirm just a little and you grabbed his jaw and forced him to look you in the eyes. “Understood? Or do you need to be taught?” your tone sounded a lot more stern that you intended.
Bucky was pleasantly surprised. He nodded rapidly, trying to hide his smirk as the look on your face let him know that he was in for a ride. “Think I need to be taught.” He whispered, looking into your eyes to find lust, and hunger – same as his.
You smiled at his answer. Of course he did. “Very well then.” And without another word said, you grabbed both his hands and pulled them away from your body and pinned both of his wrists above his head, down on the pillows. “Keep them there.” You ordered.
But as usual, he didn’t have the habit of listening so he moved his hands back on you, pulling you closer and caressing your skin. He just needed to touch you. But you were running out of patience. You grabbed both his hands and pinned them above his head again. “I said, keep them there.” You said slowly, in a strict voice.
He smirked at first, but upon seeing that you were reaching for the black tie on your bedside table, his smile faded but he felt all tingly and his body throbbed in anticipation.
You grabbed the tie you had carelessly thrown there a day or two ago and carefully tied his wrists together. The cool, silky fabric against his skin made his heart skip a beat. You then secured his wrists to the part metal part wooden headboard. Your breasts were right in his face as you did so but he didn’t mind it.
Once done, you straightened your back to get a good look at him; beneath you, tied up and lips parted as he awaited what’s next. You smirked at how he gave you his famous puppy dog eyes. But no matter what, he wasn’t getting out of this so easily this time.
Oh no, you were planning on messing with him and toying with him until he can’t physically take it. And that’s exactly what you did.
You took off his sweatpants, and underwear then finally your robe. And as you did, his cock erected even more; standing proud and tall. Bucky’s face was flushed, and you could tell he was flustered and hot and bothered already – and you had barely touched him yet.
“Think you can always have your way, don’t you?” your voice barely above a whisper as you settle on his right thigh. You bit your lip the minute you felt his warm, smooth skin press against your wet core. You rolled your hips gently against his thigh and you felt the familiar tingle dance down your spine.
Bucky watched you ride his thigh slowly; lips parted, his cock beginning to throb and leak. He knew then that this was going to be a long, hard night for him.
You pressed both your palms against his toned abdomen, carefully avoiding touching him right where he needed you as you worked to get yourself off by humping his thigh. You were leaving behind a damp patch on his skin and he bit his lip as he watched you; breasts bouncing gently, lips parted, softly gasping as you made yourself cum.
He watched how your soft moans got louder and how you humped his thigh faster, getting higher… and higher… you tilted your head back, purposely putting up a show just for him. He groaned when you whined wantonly, and he gently lifted his thigh – pressing further into your clit. He felt your wetness smearing all over his skin and he hopelessly wanted a taste.
Bucky’s cock was leaking embarrassingly by the time you came undone above him, leaving him still hard and throbbing.  
“Please…” he murmured as he watched you come down from your high. He was desperate, and hungry and he just wanted you wrapped around him. He needed to feel you, and your warmth.
You smirked as you slowed down and finally came to a stop, still straddling his thigh. “Please..” you mocked him, chuckling. “You’ve always had things handed to you on a platter. You’ve never known patience, or how to ask nicely, have you?” you smirked again, leaning in to trace his lips with your tongue. “Well you will today.”
You gave him a brief kiss before finally wrapping your hand around his cock. He almost whimpered as he closed his eyes and relished your touch. He felt thick and hard, and big. You lazily stroked his length, up and down. Your thumb rubbed his tip slowly, making him groan as you kissed your way down his neck. You kissed his skin feverishly; leaving your marks behind as you bit and sucked on Bucky’s skin around the base of his throat; making him shudder in pleasure and moan sinfully.
You pulled away after a while to look at him. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and with his lips parted and occasional moans escaping his open mouth; completely under your mercy. You smirked at how pre cum started dripping down his cock, and you knew that he was getting more and more desperate by how he kept murmuring please…please…please.
“Come on now, ask nicely.” You teased, knowing damn well you wouldn’t let him cum so easily.
Bucky groaned and opened his eyes to look at you. His eyes were darker, his gaze more intense and he tried to thrust his cock into your hand but then gave up because each time he did, you would just let go of his length. So he just let you toy with him however you liked, he took whatever you gave him.
“Please… please make me cum.” He whispered, voice strained and weak.
You chuckled as you felt him twitch in your grasp. “No.” you simply said and released him, leaving him right on the edge. He was still hard and throbbing and desperate. You leaned down to kiss him on his hip bones, gently kisses on each side and you heard him groan and squirm.
You smirked and kissed your way up his body. Eventually making your way up his body so you were straddling his face. Your hips wrapped around his head as he looked up at you. None of you minded the intimate position, he was just happy to finally touch you again. Bucky looked up at you with hunger in his eyes. And you smirked as you lowered your wet core to his mouth.
Bucky wasted no time, his mouth latched onto your clit and his tongue took in whatever you gave him. He worked his mouth at your entrance like his life depended on it. Sucking and licking and shoving his tongue past your wet folds, he ate you out like there’s no tomorrow, occasionally moving his head side to side.
You moaned out loud, throwing your head back as one of your hands held the head board for support and the other tangled in Bucky’s hair. His tongue worked wonders against your sensitive clit, making you feel all tingly and warm as you dripped all over his mouth.
“You taste so good…” he murmured against your wet folds and you very gently rolled your hips against his face, smearing your arousal all over his lips and chin; he licked a hot, thick stripe from your entrance up to your clit, with his teeth grazing it until he had you moaning loudly against him.
Your hips bucked against his face as he licked each and every drop of what you gave him. He closed his eyes and hummed loudly at your taste, making you whine and for a moment, you forgot that you weren’t supposed to be giving him the satisfaction. He was just that good and skilled with his tongue. Bucky adored the sounds you made above him. He even forgot that he was himself, throbbing with need. He was just hell bent on making you cum all over his tongue.
He had been fantasizing about this, about having your thighs wrapped around his head and to taste you and make you cum all over his tongue. And you soon realized that you were letting him have his way, so you pulled away quickly.
Bucky’s eyes shot open, “No please… I want more,” he complained, whining as you moved away from his face and kissed your way down his body again. And he was giving you the puppy dog eyes again. You almost gave in but you weren’t entirely done with him yet.
He whimpered as you slowly kissed your way down his body again; down his neck, across his bare chest and all the way to his thick, erected cock. Without any warning, you took him into your mouth, all of him. And he moaned out loud, mindlessly. You placed your mouth on his tip; your tongue slowly circling his tip.
You bobbed your head around his tip; taking him in inch by inch until he hit the back of your throat. You kept your eyes on his perfect face as you sucked on his cock. He closed his eyes momentarily, lips parted and gasping as he tilted his head back. He looked handsome, completely at your mercy.
The gasps and moans which escaped his lips as he squirmed made you smirk. It only made you want to tease him even more, and keep him on the edge. His breathy moans, his soft gasps and the way he whimpered at your touch – it made you feel even more powerful than usual. He moaned and panted; murmuring your name over and over again, begging you to speed up already and make him cum. Bucky relished the warmth of your mouth wrapped around him, perfect like he had dreamt of so often.
He twitched against your tongue and you tasted some of his pre cum. You slowed down, not wanting to grant him the satisfaction just yet. You took him out of your mouth; licking his cock from bottom to top while your hands toyed with his balls. Bucky moaned, his voice cracking; making him sound weak and desperate.
He swore under his breath as you dragged your tongue over the slit on this tip very lazily. You chuckled as he tried thrusting his hips up, hoping that you would stop messing with him already. Your ability of bringing him right to the edge and mercilessly keeping him there for as long as you wished to was driving him insane.
 Bucky lost all self-control the moment you sank down on him, your wet warmth wrapping all around him; making him swear under his breath and groan. You lean in and caress his face, looking him deep in his ocean blue eyes while you rocked your hips against his. He was quite a sight; all muscular and strong, and handsome but tied to your bed at your mercy. You chuckled and leaned in to bite his lip, tugging on it as you pulled away, surely making him lose his mind. 
You moved against him perfectly, your walls gripping him tightly and making him get louder and louder each time. Just when you felt him twitch inside you, you lifted your hips up and pulled him out of you and watched him whine and smirked at his helplessness. 
“Come on, ask nicely.” You teased. “Beg.” You said more sternly, whispering against his mouth; lips hovering above his parted ones. You leaned in to kiss his open mouth carelessly. And in that moment, he was ready to do anything for you, to please you.
“Y/n… please...” His voice was low, barely even a whisper. But you heard it. His desperation was quite clear. And he was so sensitive, from all that teasing, that once you started riding him again; he began to thrust his hips up trying to match your movements. But you messed with him even then, you slowed down your pace whenever he got too excited, and you sped up when he least expected it.
At some point, he was nothing but a sweaty, moaning mess under you; messy hair, swollen lips, and a throbbing cock. But you wanted more, you wanted to hear him whine some more, you wanted to hear how desperate he could get. You messed with him for as long as you could, and Bucky got loud, very loud; growling as you teased him, and whining your name whenever you kept him on the edge for too long. You alternated between having him in your mouth and riding his cock, and there was nothing else he could focus on in that moment. 
Just you. Only you. He was yours; yours to toy with and tease, yours to use as you pleased.
You eventually gave in; seeing he was physically worn out. And you fucked his brains out, making him cum in no time. Your walls clenched around him; gripping him and milking him perfectly. He was completely at your mercy, begging you to slow down when you kept riding his sensitive, throbbing cock even after he came. His heart raced, he was breathing hard and fast after you were done with him. You kissed his chest, murmuring how good he was.
“Now, will you finally learn how to behave and do as you’re told?” you gripped his jaw gently, and looked deep into his eyes while you spoke. His hands were still tied, and sore and they were itching to just reach out and touch you. 
Bucky nodded frantically. You smiled.
-
He stayed in your bed long after you two were done. He was clinging to you like a koala bear to a tree, shamelessly using your bare chest as a pillow. Your hand ran lazily into his hair and you smiled at how warm he felt. Sure, he was a tall and muscular man but he snuggled up to you like a child. You could feel his warm puffs of air hit your skin each steadily. You thought he was asleep but then he spoke up.
“Are you awake?” he asked, voice groggy and strained; deep.
“No.” you answered and waited for his reaction. And a few seconds later he lifted his head up to glare at you. You giggled at the face he made. After giving you a dirty glare, he got back to using your breasts as a pillow.
“Will you go out with me?” he spoke up again, asking you out.
“That’s not appropriate. I’m your dad’s employee.” you were starting to feel the day’s fatigue take over you slowly. You yawned right after speaking.
“Yeah? And what about what just happened? Is that appropriate?” he asked.
You sighed. “Go to sleep Bucky.” Truth is, you didn’t know what this was. But you wouldn’t lie, despite being annoying, it was hard not to love him.
He didn’t say anything. He pulled you closer and got on top of you, pinning you down on the bed this time. “Do you not like me?” he asked.
“I do! Get off, you’re heavy!” you giggled as he put all of his body weight on you.
“Then take responsibility for your actions. You stole my heart and now I’m in love with you.” he spoke in a matter-of-fact tone which made you laugh. “Look I’m hot and cute, it’s hard being both. I am smart,” he was listing and as soon as he said smart, you raised an eyebrow at him, questioningly. “I have a university degree to prove it, okay?” he resumed listing his qualities. “I’ll keep you away from crazy exes, and I will get you a puppy if you w-,”
You cut him off with a kiss. He sure was adorable. “Okay, okay stop.” You mumbled against his lips. “Your dad’s gonna kill me if we date.” You groaned thinking about what would happen if Mr. Barnes finds out.
Bucky kissed you deeply, then pulled away to look at you. “No he won’t. Dad likes you. Even if he tries to, I’ll protect you. I’m very strong as you can see.” He mumbled, pushing his face into the crook of your neck and making you giggle given you were ticklish.
“A big baby is what you are.” You corrected him. He chuckled.
“Please just give me a chance. I really, really like you.” he said, sincerely.
You gave it a thought. You liked him too. “Okay.” You said. He pulled away and smiled down at you. “I like you too.” You spoke again and Bucky leaned in to kiss you again.
Little did you know that giving him a chance would end up being the best decision you ever made…

pain reliever
TW: descriptive talk abt period cramps ig?, talk abt cysts, mutual pining lol
Summary: in which spencer and Y/N love each other but refuse to tell each other. Y/N's having major period pain, the effect of a cyst, and spencer comes over to comfort her.
WC: 3,744
A/N - this one’s a bit of a rollercoaster. it has three different POV’s so just bear with me please!
masterlist
--------------------
Tumblr media
don't get me wrong, working at the BAU is amazing and definitely has it's perks, but it also has several downsides too. one of those pesky little downsides includes the amount of time off we have.
meaning we don't have much downtime.
this was one of the rare occasions when we were able to have two weeks off, the result of a very strenuous case.
this time was so exciting, spencer and i planned to go out to a movie he'd been dying to see. nobody else wanted to go with him and were being absolute jerks about it, so i automatically stepped up to go with him.
i went to bed the night before we were supposed to go out after showering. i was actually excited to be able to spend some time with him.
i couldn't help but begin to have feelings for him soon after i joined the team. i mean, who would be able to resist those amazing curls, the sweet smile, kind spirit, not to even mention how smart he is.
he didn't know that, of course. and i planned for him to never know. i was able to keep it a secret for 5 and a half years, and i didn't plan on stopping that streak anytime soon. i didn't want to ruin the friendship i had with him by confessing my undying love for him only to confirm my fears of it being unrequited.
i woke up groaning, the effect of an intense pain on my neck, back, and uterus. I almost immediately knew what that meant, sadly.  
i ran to the bathroom, only to find my suspicions confirmed. my period has always been irregular but about a year ago, i started getting terrible cramps when it wasn't anywhere close to the time for my period.
i went to the doctor to find out a cyst had grown on my left ovary so i started taking birth control per my doctor's request. the only thing about the birth control i was on was that it made me sick when i was on the green pill, so i had to stop taking it.
not taking it meant my period was always a surprise. but hey... at least i wasn't pregnant i guess.
when i took the birth control, it also lessened the cramps. not taking it also brought them back. sometimes not even the extra strength mydol was able to subside the terrible cramps that would ripple throughout my body.
those cramps meant that i needed to cancel my plans with spencer. i could only hope he wouldn't take it as me not wanting to spend time with him.
although, i certainly didn't want him to see me like this.
i decided i would take a shower in attempt to wash the dirty feeling off of my body. I could just call him after i got out and tell him i have a bug or something.
i took my time washing myself, letting the hot water soothe my aching muscles. cysts normally only affect the uterus area and cause discomfort at most times, but it always becomes severely worse during that time of the month.
luckily, my doctors helped create an appointment for a procedure to remove the cyst. the only catch being that the appointment is still 6 months away.
i finished showering and wrapped a towel around my body before popping two mydol's in my mouth and swallowing. i grabbed my cell and quickly dialed spencer's name.
"Y/N! hi. what's up?" he asked sweetly. i could hear the excitement in his voice.
"hey, spence," i started, already feeling terrible for the sad news. "i won't be able to go out today. i really, really wish i could. i came down with something and don't think i'm well enough to go out. i'm so sorry," i murmured, already regretted having to cancel.
"oh... that's okay. are you alright? do you need me to take you to the doctor?" he asked all worried. i giggled softly.
"no, that's alright, spence. thank you though. i think i'm probably just gonna get some house work done in the meantime," i declared with a sigh.
"you're planning on cleaning when you're sick? another reason to never doubt the strength of a woman, i suppose," he quipped, another laugh erupting from my chest, this one being louder.
"that, spencer reid, is why you're my best friend," i said with a smile.
"that and the fact that you actually listen to my incessant babbling and rambles," he remarked.
"i actually happen to enjoy those rambles, doctor. don't sell yourself short," I demanded in a sweet tone.
"thank you, Y/N. you should get some rest. don't overexert yourself," he said sweetly. "in all the years i've known you you've only been sick a number of times, so i would imagine you really don't feel too well," he declared. "goodbye."
"goodbye, spencer. s-sorry again," I stammered out.
I hung up the phone before actually getting dressed in some proper underwear. I threw on some loose shorts and skipped putting a bra on, my boobs were really sore, opting for just throwing a tank top on.
i started with doing the dishes from last night. the medicine was kind of kicking in, not fully taking the stabbing pain away but lessening it enough to where it would be manageable.
once the dishes were done i started doing the laundry, taking breaks in-between loads. during the breaks i made sure to drink a lot of water to stay hydrated.
part of me was debating going to the store to pick up some dark chocolate, ice cream, kale chips, and some chinese, but i decided against it.
i'm sure if i went out i would immediately regret it and have the pain 10x worse, just because that's my luck. so, suffering alone it was.
once i finished all of the laundry, i sat down on the couch. i had been going for about three hours, and definitely felt the toll it was taking on my body.
i turned on FRIENDS and grabbed a heating pad from a bin in my living room. i placed the pad on my upper back and groaned at the heat.
before i knew it, i was dead asleep.
SPENCER'S POV
i didn't buy it.
she never gets sick, and when she does it's like she's dying. she doesn't laugh when she's sick, and her voice wasn't as nasally.
don't get me wrong, something was obviously wrong with her, but she wasn't sick sick. maybe another sick.
what else would cause her to cancel plans with me? she's never done that before.
although, there was one time where she mentioned her needing to go to the doctor for a consult about a cyst. maybe it was the cyst?
wait... her uterus. the cyst was on her uterus.
we were on a case a couple months back, and this unsub was hard to track down. when we managed to figure out where he was, she ended up having to chase him down. she had to run a mile for at least 7 minutes before actually getting him. he was only 25 and was an exercise fanatic.
after catching the guy and bringing him in she had a hard time hiding her discomfort. even at the station, abut an hour later, she was still grabbing her lower stomach in pain. when i asked her what was wrong she told me about the cyst and where it was.
although, the cyst never really affected her energy level since then. she was able to go out on cases and perform perfectly fine.
the only thing that it could've been would be her- ohhh!!
oh...
i should get her something. food. she loves food.
she's probably in a lot of pain right now because of that. she shouldn't have to handle that pain 24/7. she was so sweet, and caring, and generous, and loving, and undeserving of any sort of discomfort.
to be honest, i've had the largest crush on her since after she joined the BAU. who wouldn't?
she's such an amazing person. just being around her lightens my mood. not to mention her beauty. don't get me wrong, i absolutely love her mind and everything about her personality, but the beauty she beholds is beyond anything i've ever encountered. then again, maybe the feelings i have for her boost that beauty in my eyes.
it was that beauty that kept me quiet. why would someone with beauty as ethereal as hers even look at a guy like me? it's like she's not meant for this world. she's too good for this world.
i'm in too deep now to share my feelings. i would do anything to keep her light in my life, even if that meant keeping all my love for her bottled up.
my heart ached at the thought of her in pain that i can't help her subside. the least i could do is be there for her.
i quickly grabbed my keys- yes, that's right. i'm driving for her. what kind of man am i?- and headed out of my apartment.
i went to the grocery store and picked up some of her favorites, dark chocolate, mint chip ice cream, kale chips, and... chinese. she loves chinese, so surely that's what she's craving. if she doesn't want it i would gladly get her whatever it is she does want.
i would give her the entire world if i could.
after picking the items up, i made my way to her place and pulled her key out of my pocket after she didn't answer my knock the first couple times. We had both decided to give each other a copy of our keys for safety purposes, result of me becoming the designated driver after a girl's night out gone wrong.
long story short, all the girls left with someone, leaving Y/N stranded at a heavily populated bar. if the girls weren't drunk when they left then i know i would've scolded them for leaving her in such danger. hell, they were FBI agents and left a friend who wasn't in her right mind alone in the middle of the night.
the only reason i was able to pick her up was because she drunkingly called me, slurring her words together. that's a story for another time.
i held the bags in one hand and the chinese food under my arm while i unlocked the door and quitely walked in. i saw her laying down on the couch, looking so peaceful.
SECOND PERSON
spencer looked at you as you slept. he noticed the heating pad laying on your back as your face was partially smushed from the couch. he'd never seen anything so adorable.
he pushed a strand of hair out of your face as he gently tapped your shoulders to wake you. you squinted at him in confusion for a second before you finally spoke.
"spencer? wh-what're you doing here?" you questioned him in disbelief.
you had no idea why he was here. you had told him you couldn't go out, right?
"me being the amazing profiler i am figured out what was actually wrong," he gloated. "i brought your favorite snacks and came with chinese food. if you want something else i could always go back out and-"
"did you drive?" you squeaked.
"why wouldn't i? you're in pain right now, that's the least i could do to somehow help you," he gushed.
you felt tears pricking your eyes at his confession. how could someone be so selfless and kind as to put themselves though something they hate doing for you?
"hey-hey, what is it?" he worriedly questioned.
"i-it's just... th-that's so sweet, and nice, and you hate driving, and you're such an amazing person, and i don't deserve you," you sniffled out, the tears flowing past my eyes as you sat up on the couch to give him a place to sit.
He grabbed the heating pad that fell off your back and set it on the coffee table before wiping your tears. His arms wrapped around your shoulders as you lightly cried into his shirt for a few minutes before pulling back.
"sorry about your shirt," you whined.
"don't worry about it. and i truly think it's me who doesn't deserve you, Y/N," he said softly. "now, let's dig into the food. i'm actually hungry right now, i had to smell it the entire way here and it's been taunting me ever since," he said seriously, eliciting another laugh out of you. "oh! there she is! i love hearing your laugh," he smiled.
"oh, you're just saying that," you waved him off as he feigned offense with a loud gasp.
"are you accusing me of lying, Y/N? i'm terribly offended," he shot his hand over his heart in an attempt to mock pain as he groaned.
"i would never, spencie," you taunted with a smirk before getting an actual cramp.
your face contorted slightly in pain as you bent over in an attempt to ease the discomfort. it felt like someone was stabbing your entire lower stomach and punching you all at once. the pain and sudden movement made your head begin to throb intensely, so you didn't know where to put your hands. your stomach or head? you chose stomach.
spencer felt horrible as he watched you go through such pain.
"what hurts, Y/N/N? let me help you," spencer pleaded.
"head. really bad," you groaned.
he got behind you as his hands found your temples and began massaging them gently, being able to subside the pain pulsing in your head. while your stomach still hurt, the pain became bearable again, allowing you to sit up and face spencer. he saw that your eyes were full of tears once again and his arms flew around you.
he hated that you had to go through that... every month too? your pain tolerance has always been high, something spencer learned after you got shot in the thigh and didn't even shed a tear, so he knew the fact that tears were in your eyes had meant the pain had to be terrible.
"food?" he said softly, you nodded eagerly, still being wary of the headache.
he went into your kitchen and put away the ice cream, chocolate, and kale chips before getting the chinese. he grabbed you a water bottle from your fridge before exiting the kitchen and sitting beside you on the couch.
"why didn't you tell me they were this bad?" spencer wondered.
"i didn't want you to worry, or see me like this," you shrugged.
it was true, you hated anyone seeing you hurt or weak. you prided yourself on being tough and strong enough to withstand most things. the fact that a measly monthly period was breaking you hurt your ego more than you'd like to admit.
for spencer, he didn't care. the only thing he wanted to do was make sure you were okay and be there for you when you weren't. he was determined to help you through this time. it made him feel... important. he enjoyed caring for others as it gave him a sense of purpose.
"Y/N, i don't care what state you're in. i always enjoy seeing you. and i'm always here to help you. asking for help makes you stronger than you'd think," he soothed you.
one thing you loved about him was that he always had a way with words. he was able to make you feel safe in the most dangerous situations, calm in the most chaotic, comfortable in the most destitute, and all with words.
you ate your food rather quickly after realizing you hadn't eaten all day. you were unashamed of eating that much, too. you'd become so comfortable with him over the years that you didn't feel embarrassed over something as routine as eating as you normally would with others.
after spencer finished eating he insisted on cleaning up rather than you do it yourself.
and to think, you thought you couldn't fall deeper in love with the man and here you were, falling deeper the longer he stayed.
little did you know that spencer was already madly in love with you.
he came back and sat beside you gently, looking at you with the utmost adoration that you couldn't see since you were back to being doubled over in pain.
"let's get you laid down, hmm?" spencer suggested as he gently rubbed your back.
"mhmm," you agreed, sitting up far too quickly. your back shot out in pain as you tried to straighten out, bringing a groan to your lips and causing you to twist your torso in an attempt to avoid any more hurt. "i guess i can just stay here," you said, resuming the doubled-over position.
spencer wanted to cry himself seeing you so defeated. you were the most strong-willed person he knew and here you were, giving up on something. he wouldn't let that happen.
"you'll be more comfortable in the bed. i'll carry you since you can't get up, okay?" spencer suggested.
you hummed in defeat as he swiftly scooped you up, leaving your body folded up as you swung your arms around his neck. he laid you down on the bed gently as you groaned at your back stretching out.
"turn over on your stomach," spencer ordered.
"wh-what? why?" you wondered.
"you'll see when you do it, ms. stubborn-pants," he teased.
you groaned and flopped onto your stomach, reaching to cuddle the pillow your head was resting on. spencer secretly wished he was that pillow.
his hands fell onto your back, applying light pressure right between your shoulder blades.
"ohh, this is what you were gonna do," you hummed in content as his hands continued to work their magic. he gathered your hair and pulled it to the side as he worked his way up to your neck. "ugh that feels amazing, spence," you groaned.
spencer huffed a laugh at your enthusiasm, him being happy that he can subside some of your pain. if doing something as simple as giving you a massage made you happy, he was happy.
spencer worked his hands back down to your shoulders and worked out nearly every single knot on your back. you felt your breathing slow from the relaxation and didn't even realize how good of a distraction your hands on her body were. if only you could massage my boobs, you thought with a laugh.
"umm... what?" spencer questioned.
"hmm?" you questioned, suddenly realizing that you had said that out loud. "i didn't say anything," you said, your voice raising an octave as you spoke.
spencer knew what he had heard, but decided to drop it to make you more comfortable.
"right, sorry," he said with a smile. maybe you did have feelings for him.
he continued the massage and noticed you were asleep after about ten more minutes. He sighed as he watched your hair move with each breath you took. he relished in the fact that he helped you achieve something, that he was useful for something.
"god, i love you so much," he whispered. "i love you so much, i don't even think i could tell you how much i truly love you."
you were awake. you heard him. you heard every word. you were in that weird between stage when you weren't really asleep, but you weren't necessarily awake either.
"i love you too, spencer," you spoke.
spencer shot up at your words, realization hitting him as you stirred in what he assumed was your sleep. you rolled over onto your back and looked into his eyes.
"i love you so, so much, spence," you smiled, noticing the shocked look on his face.
"y-you do?" he babbled.
"of course i do. how could i not?" you quipped, noticing his utter nervousness.
"i-i can't believe it. you love me?"
"how many times do i have to say it? i love you, spencer reid. i love you," you said as the shocked expression on his face turned into one of pure happiness and joy.
"i love you, Y/N Y/L/N. i've loved you for so long..." he trailed off, bringing your body into his arms.
"and fyi, i mean the romantic way if you didn't catch that," you joked.
"good because that's exactly how i meant it," he said, pulling back to look at you once again. "ca-can i kiss you?" he asked as his hands were balanced on the back of your neck.
you nodded eagerly before his lips crashed into yours passionately as you placed your hands on his face. the feeling of his sharp jawline with his scruffy facial hair something you've been wanting to feel against your skin for far too long.
spencer tugged gently at your hair, bringing a soft moan to your lips, allowing his tongue to enter your mouth gingerly. he was immediately granted dominance as you allowed his tongue to travel into your mouth, investigating it thoroughly.
you were both in a state of euphoria as you delved into each other's presence in a new manner. both of you knew this discovery would change your relationship, but you had both gone through every scenario in your minds in the many years' past.
you finally pulled back at another sharp pain in your uterus.
"ouchhh," you grimaced.
"are you okay? what can i do?" he wondered eagerly.
"just cuddle with me?" you asked with pleading eyes.
"of course i can," he smiled.
he moved up to the headboard and laid his head on one of your pillows after getting underneath the covers. after he opened his arms, you rested your head on his chest and threw one arm over his torso, interlacing your legs underneath the sheets. he brought one arm around your waist as the other drew you closer across your shoulders. You nestled your head into his neck and inhaled his comforting scent.
"you smell good," you giggled.
"thank you," he laughed at your compliment.
"spencer?" you asked.
"yea, Y/N?"
"you're my pain reliever."

The Boy Next Door
Tumblr media
Eddie Diaz x Reader 
Warnings: mentions of divorce, step-parents, a little bit of arguing, alcohol and consumption of, like one swear word, mentions of sickness
Category: fluff 
Word Count: 2.3K
Author’s Note: ahhh okay hi! this is my first 911 fic, idk it’s mostly self indulgent because I can’t get this idea out of my head, so here we are :) also for the purpose of this, Eddie never got married nor did he have Christopher 
Italics are flashbacks 
----
To say you were average was the understatement of your life, you weren't special nor were you awkward or shy, you were just average. You had always been the average person, in an average neighbourhood with an average life. 
But the boy next door, there was nothing average about him. 
The first time you met the boy next door was when you were 14, you had just moved into the neighbourhood with your father and his new wife. There was still lots to be done, the air conditioning was broken and your father seemed to misplace his toolkit during the move. He left you in the smouldering heat and ventured off to find a toolkit. Not only did he return with a toolkit but visitors as well.
“y/n!” your father shouted from the bottom on the staircase, “what?!” you shouted back. “Come down here!” you groaned as he called for you again, what could he possibly want now? 
Your father stood there with a man and a boy who you could only assume was his son. “Y/n, this is Ramon and his son, Eddie. They live next door and Ramon was kind enough to loan his tools and help me out.” you smiled at them from the top of the stairs. 
“Come down and get Eddie something to drink” your father said, you resisted the urge to roll your eyes and made your way down the stairs. 
“Would you like some lemonade ?” you asked, walking past him to the kitchen, he followed you. “Please” he leaned against the wall watching you move around the kitchen. 
“So, I hear you have a step mom?” he asks, you could feel his eyes burning into your back as you got the lemonade from the fridge. “Unfortunately” you mumble and pour some of the liquid into a glass, Eddie made his way over to the counter, he leaned up against it. 
“Do you know how to stand straight ?” you glance at him up and down, he laughs and shakes his head. 
“Why is it unfortunate that you have a stepmother ?” taking a sip of the lemonade, his eyes fixed on you. “Have you ever seen Cinderella ?” you asked, hopping up on the counter and picking up the other glass, Eddie nods. 
“Imagine living with Cinderella’s stepmother but times 100″ you groan, Eddie had a smile on his face. 
“You’re joking”
“Wish I was” 
“Well that sucks” he gave you an apologetic look
“Big time” your eyes are on your legs which were swinging back and forth. Eddie grabs your leg suddenly, “what the hell!” you jump, he laughs again. 
God he has such a cute laugh, wait what ? Stop he’s your neighbour, you barely know him.
“How’d you get that?” his thumb rubs over a scar on your leg by your ankle. “Bike accident when I was younger. It just didn’t heal right and left a scar, also because there was a giant gash there for a few weeks” you shrug. The two of you were in the kitchen for a few minutes, Eddie’s hand was still wrapped around your leg, neither of you saying a word to each other. 
“Eddie! Time to go!” Ramon shouted for Eddie, he let go of your leg. “See you around ?” he asked, you nodded, “yeah, see ya” Eddie smiled at you and you smiled back. 
You rarely saw Eddie after that day, he had been helping his father at his shop all summer so you never got a chance to hang out. When school started, you had a few classes with him, he occasionally asked for the answers to the homework after his practices ran long, which you gave to him. 
Somewhere deep down, you had a soft spot for the boy next door. 
Your friendship, if you could even call it that, was built solely on the fact that he lives next door and went to the same classes, if it weren't for that, you’d never speak to him. He wasn't a popular kid per se but he had a solid friend group and played sports, so in his own way, he was a popular kid. You were the kid that had your head down, did what you were told to do and left. 
High school flew by and you were glad. The whole “your high school years are the best years of your life” was bullshit, if anything, you ended up coming out more confused than you went in. 
The second time you spent time with Eddie was at your graduation party. The graduating class had arranged a grad party for yourselves in the neighbourhood. It consisted of loud drunk teenagers and their tipsy parents. By midnight, the street began clearing out, you hung back simply because you didn’t want to go home and deal with your stepmother and your father. 
Sitting on the curb at the end of the street, you could see the entire street. There  were still a few kids, a group of boys playing football terribly, a couple making out in the corner and some girls posing for pictures by some car. 
Eddie’s shouting broke your thoughts, “Papi I'm going!” It sounded like something had shattered, perhaps a bottle. You got up and slowly made your way over. “You want to throw away your life? Stay here, get a job Eddie, I won’t allow you to do this!” his father shouted back at him. Eddie began walking away from his father, Ramon grabbed his hand. “Do not walk away from me!” he shouted again. 
“You made up your mind and so did I. I'm going.” Eddie said sternly and walked away. He walked past you on his way to wherever he was going. He didn’t stop, he didn't talk, he just pushed past you and left. 
Eddie left home a few weeks later. You kept up with his parents, stopping by for dinner every once in a while. His father didn’t talk much about him, just that he was good and that’s all. Once his father left, his mother told you about what actually was going on, how Eddie felt as if he had found a purpose there. She shows you letters that he had sent and a picture he had sent her in his uniform.
“Doesn't he look handsome ?” she smiled, showing you the picture of Eddie. “Yeah, very handsome, Mrs. Diaz” you smiled back. 
“Do you know when he’s coming back?” 
The smile dropped from her face. “He- uh, reenlisted” she mumbled. “Ramon doesn't know” 
You nodded, “I won’t tell” 
“Who’s not telling what?” his father came back in for a moment, you smiled at him while Mrs. Diaz turned her attention to the sink. “Oh just that Mrs. Diaz is helping me with dinner for my grandparents tomorrow” you pick up the bowls on the counter, “Thank you for dinner, I'll see you guys around ?” 
“of course, thank you for coming over. it’s nice to have you around” his mother gave you a hug. 
You spent a lot of afternoons with his mom, just helping her out around the house. It wasn't until 4 years after that night that you saw him again. A few bruises and bumps, a couple scars and broken bones you were sure of, but he was back in one piece. In true Diaz fashion, his parents insisted on throwing a party for him. It was supposed to be a small party, just a few neighbours and family. By the time Mrs. Diaz was done inviting people, there was triple the amount of people coming. 
You headed over with your father, he had gotten sick recently and required a bit more help now. Truthfully by 25, you had planned to be living on your own but with your father getting sick and your step mother bailing, you stuck around. Once you got him situated, you found Mrs. Diaz in the kitchen. 
“Hey” you smiled at her, taking the bowl from her hands. “Hi mi amor, how are you ?” She smiled at you, you rested the bowl on the table across from the two of you, “I’m okay for now.” 
Eddie’s laughter filled your ears, that was a sound you didn't hear often but one you loved nonetheless “It’s good to have him home” his mother smiled, watching her son from the window. Mrs. Diaz gets pulled off by someone leaving you alone in the kitchen, turning to the fridge, you look through for a beer. “hey, pass me one too” his voice called as he watched through the backdoor. You pulled two out and handed on to him. 
“Thanks” Eddie leaned against the counter, you couldn't help but chuckle. “What?” taking a sip of the beer, his eyes meet yours. “Nothing, just noticing your habit of leaning on things” you stood across from him. 
“Sorry, but do I know you from somewhere ? You seem so familiar” his brows furrowed, tongue running across his lip. “I’m y/n, we’re neighbours” you told him, his eyes flickered up and down you, your name leaving his lips. 
God, your name never sounded so good. 
“Y/n...” his eyes ran over your body once more, his eyes locking on your foot. “Ankle Scar” he smiled, you nodded as your lips curled into a smile. “God, I'm so sorry I didn’t rememb-” “don’t worry ‘bout it, I'm not really anyone worth remembering” 
Eddie’s smile dropped, a pout visibly on his face. “Don’t say that, I'm sure you are.” 
“Is that why you didn't remember me ?” you teased
“We went to high school together” he took another sip, you nodded in agreement. “We’ve also lived next door to each other since we were 14”  you smiled at him. Again, the smile vanished from his face, “okay, now I really feel like shit. God, I'm sorry” “It’s cool really” you gave a smile once more. 
“Don’t you have a party to get back too ?” 
“Eh, not to fussy about parties to tell you the truth. I might take a walk around the block, care to join me ?” 
“Actually, yeah, I’d like that” 
Eddie opened the front door for you, letting you step out first. The two of you headed through the front to avoid everyone in the back, you walked down the street together, the dull streetlights lit the sidewalks, beer in your hand. 
“What have you been up to?” Eddie asked you, “Well, I'm a nurse but only part time. My dad needs me around.. now that he’s sick” 
“Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, your dad’s a cool guy” 
Scoffing, you take a sip of your beer, “yeah, you’re the only one that’s ever thought that” your statement making Eddie chuckled. “If you don't mind me asking, what happened to the wicked step mother of the west?”  he looked over at you as he walked along the curb of the sidewalk, his arms out to balance himself. 
“She bailed when he found out he was sick.” 
Eddie stopped walking, “seriously ? that’s a bitch move” “yeah, tell me about it” 
Taking a seat on the curb, Eddie sat down too. The street was quiet for the most part, the only noise coming from down the street at Diaz’s place. Your fingers tapped against the beer bottle in your hand, aimlessly trying to keep up with the beat of the music. Eddie’s hand on your ankle startled you, causing you to drop the bottle. “Seriously ?! Again?” you shout, Eddie put his finger over your lips. “Shh! you’ll wake up the neighbours” he muttered, you rolled your eyes at his statement. “Tell me nurse y/n, how does one not ‘heal right’” he laughed, his thumb rubbing against the scar and causing you to roll your eyes again. “surely you can tell me that, Sergeant Diaz” 
Eddie looked shocked, “how did-” “your mom, she never stopped talking about her son, the army sergeant medic” you teased, he shook his head, laughing. “I know you’ve only been back for a few weeks, but what’s next ? Are you going to stay ?” 
“If I have a reason too, I will but I- I don't know what’s next” Eddie sighed. 
“Perhaps a change in scenery ?” you asked, he looked over at you with a questionable expression on his face. “I'm moving, to California in a few months” you told him. 
“Oh? What for?” 
“A change in scenery” you laughed and he smiled at you. 
“I haven't thought about moving, maybe it would be nice. A break away from here, not that I don't love it here, I love my parents too but-” he stopped talking, he realized the more he went on, the deeper a hole he dug. 
“You know, I hear the LAFD is always looking for recruits. I’m sure they wouldn't mind having an army medic on the team” you glance over at him, there’s a pause in the conversation. 
Eddie looks over at you, “that’s not a bad idea” his arm wraps around your shoulder, pulling you into his side, your arm his rested on top of his knee, 
“What do you say to a road trip and a roommate ?” he looks down at you. 
You look up at him, “I think I'd like that”

It Takes A Man- Ray Diaz x Reader (2)
Tumblr media
Pairing: Ray Diaz x Reader
Warning(s): Language, angsty feels, mentions of cheating, SMUT
Summary: In the aftermath of your night with Ray, you struggle to move on from the Diaz men, but find difficulty in forgetting the man in question. What happens when you reunite?
A/N: This will not be a full-length story, I think it’ll just be a fun little miniseries that I’ll work on between drabbles and oneshots, but so many of you loved the first part that I couldn’t help but post the sequel earlier than anticipated. Enjoy, my little deviants!
 Part 1
 You huffed, barely making it through your front door before the handfuls of grocery bags collapsed at your feet. You cringed, shaking your head upwards at the thought of how all the fresh fruit you just bought at the corner bodega was now bruised. Shuffling your feet, you prodded the cans of various sauces and whatnot out of your way, casually closing the front door with your foot and tossed your purse on the nearby sofa.
 Your new apartment had finally been put together in your hasty move from the Diaz household. The drive was not so bad, it was long enough to put distance between Oscar and yourself so that you two could avoid any awkward/angry confrontations on the street. But you were relieved, as was Cesar, that it was no more than a 15-minute drive, 25-minute to half hour walk in case the youngest Diaz brother and his friends ever wished to stop by. The pang in your chest whenever your thoughts drifted towards Cesar was still an entirely fresh wound. The way he yelled and cried in your arms the night he came home still made your e/c eyes well up with tears. You would never forgive yourself for the role you played in the separation. Oscar was by no means innocent; his actions were unforgiveable. He cheated on you more times than you would ever care to admit. He made a fool out of the one person who held him down, the one constant in his life. And you would be lying if you said you weren’t still bitter.
 Cesar knew the breakup was looming, in the months leading up to that fateful night you and Oscar had gone for each other’s throats. Initially he only left the house to take care of ‘’Santo business’’ but the smell of cheap perfume contradicted that immediately. Despite your valiant efforts, Cesar walked in on you once or twice just crying your eyes out until they became so painfully puffy. History certainly repeated itself in the Diaz house. The only difference was that you managed to get out in, mentally exhausted but physically fine, while his mother had overdosed not two years after Ray was locked up. Cesar partially felt betrayed by everyone involved. Oscar, Ray, and even you. But Oscar had been the real target of Cesar’s anger and hurt. Had Oscar not made Cesar join the Santos, Cesar would’ve had a normal life and possible ticket outside of Freeridge. Had Oscar not been a complete jerk to you, Cesar could’ve had some resemblance of a family left. He still had you, he still had Oscar. But it was never going to be the same.
 That said, what you and Ray had done was anything but innocent. ‘’Fuck,’’ you huffed, tossing your keys in the dish by the entryway. As much as you probably should’ve forgotten all about that night. As much as you tried to dismiss the reminiscing, you found yourself in a losing battle. About the way Ray had felt filling you. The drag and pull movements of his manhood along your velvety walls. You involuntarily shivered and cursed yourself as your mind clouded over in a haze of lust.
 ‘’No. . .no, we aren’t going back there,’’ you chided, working to tidy up the place. ‘No matter how much I may long to. . .’ you mentally noted as your actions quickened in a pathetic attempt to block the mental image of Ray hovering over you, filling your tightness. The familiar pitter patter of butterflies in your abdomen alerted you of your arousal. The blush that steadily spread across your cheeks did the same.
 Ray and you had seldom spoken in the nearly 40 days it took for you to find an apartment in a safe part of Freeridge (upon Oscar’s insistence, to your shock) and for you to gather your belongings and move out (thanks to the efforts of Sad Eyes and Tito, also upon Oscar’s insistence and your shock). When you had said a quick goodbye to your ex of five years and the boy you practically raised since he was a small fourth grader, the longing look in Ray’s eyes was not lost on you. Whereas Cesar walked you to your car, Oscar hung back on the porch trying his best to seem unbothered, Ray leaned against the side gate of the house. A cigarette hung loosely between his lips as he made sure to stay out of Oscar’s line of vision. You didn’t need to look up at him to know he was watching you. To know that look in his eyes. You had the same look as you drove way, only concealing it as to avoid another fist fight between Oscar and his father.
 The apartment itself was nice and homey. Your job in real estate, selling mostly houses in Brentwood, made sure that you could afford nicer furniture, a stocked fridge, and lunch money for Cesar. He would alternate, opting to camp out on your charcoal gray couch while Oscar enjoyed the benefits of a newly single life back home. You feigned ignorance or uncaringness whenever Cesar showed up late at night with a sympathetic look in his deep brown eyes, but every time you thought about the girls drifting in and out of the only home you had truly known the past five years, your heart clenched in your throat.
 Sad Eyes had been another figure who graced your doorstep every now and then. He insisted it was because of the friendship you and he had maintained since high school, but something told you he was keeping tabs on you. The one, single one night stand you had partaken in a few nights ago just so happened to be cut short (too short) when Sad Eyes conveniently began pounding on the door. The situation had Oscar’s hypocritical jealous antics written all over it. Nonetheless, Jose was a good friend of yours’ and he along with Tito and the other Santos were a big help in setting up the place to your liking.
 As you drifted around the entertainment area, around the balcony, and around the kitchen watering your various plants, your brows furrowed. The one person who hadn’t really visited you, aside from Oscar of course, was the one man you couldn’t stop thinking about.
 Your night with Ray was far too passionate, or so you thought, to be just a one-time thing. As sick and twisted it might be, as horrible of a person that made you, you couldn’t help but yearn to have another night with the Diaz patriarch. Subconsciously, your hand drifted to your collarbone, sighing through your nose as visions of his strong, rough hands exploring your flesh resonated within you. Part of you shrunk back into your shell, your subconscious telling you that Oscar had clearly taken after his father when it came to breaking hearts. That Ray probably hadn’t been with a woman since being released from prison. That you were just an easy fix, a convenience for him in the form of an insecure and emotionally exhausted hyna. He didn’t see you anything other than a tight hole to keep his dick warm. You bit your lip, hands clutching the kitchen counter until your knuckles turned nearly pale.
 But the other part of you felt in your bones that it was not just an easy fix. That, yes lust fueled and spurred his actions, but there was something about the way he looked at you as you drove away from the house. Something that screamed ‘’more.’’ An enchanting, debauching look. Interest, maybe, but still more all the same. More.
 Your fingers danced down the valley of your breasts, down your abdomen, until your fingertips made contact with the top of your leggings. Admittedly, you had forgone wearing underwear this particular day, out of laziness, but you were certainly not complaining as your fingers met the wetness of your tight folds. An airy sigh escaped your lips, eyes closed as those fingers danced along your sensitive folds like little ballerinas.
 Your other hand began kneading your still clothed breasts, becoming rougher in an attempt to mirror the way Ray had done. Whether it was the forbidden, sinful nature of that night or not, no other man, not even Oscar had made you feel so erotic the way Ray Diaz had. Your eyelids fluttered shut as your moans steadily flowed past your lips like a gentle choir. The middle finger curled in the depths of your core, your index finger gently rolling the sensitive pearl above. The faster your digits worked, the easier it became to imagine Ray’s touch. The smell of his shampoo with the slight musk of his sweat from working out in the front lawn. The way he grunted every time he slammed into your core. The way his eyes went nearly black from pure lust and primal desire when he looked over your quivering form.
 ‘’R-Ray,’’ you whimpered to yourself, panting as your fingers worked diligently.
 ‘’Don’t stop, nena.’’
 Your eyes flew wide open, your mouth following suit as the man of the hour stood in your front door, learning against the frame. That infamous, lopsided Diaz smirk left no room to question where his boys got it from.
 ‘’Don’t stop on my account,’’ he repeated, uncomfortably shifting his weight to his other leg, a very noticeable bulge catching your attention immediately. You gulped.
 ‘’How the f-fuc. . .wha. . .why?’’ you screeched, hand quickly retreating from your pulsing, needy pussy much to your discomfort. You were convinced that he could feel the heat of your blush from across the room.
 ‘’The front door was unlocked. I know it’s a safer neighborhood, but you still need to-‘’
 ‘’I meant why the hell are you here?’’ you didn’t mean to sound as bitchy as it had came out, but you were slightly jilted from the way he had ignored you the pas several weeks.
 No calls. No texts. No surprise visits. Until now.
 The smirk faded from his handsome face, becoming more serious although his eyes showed the slightest hint of a mix of shame and sorrow.
 ‘’Y/n,’’ he sighed, eyes turning to look down at the floor. It was amazing how, for a split second, the father of two and former Santos member had morphed into a nervous young man. You could almost pinpoint what he looked like younger.
 You stilled, heart still racing violently in your chest. He had rarely called you by your name before. Even before you two had sex, it had always been ‘’nena’’ or ‘’mamacita.’’ In fact, you were sure he only used your name once. When he came inside you and sealed your fate. You suppressed a shiver, but Ray quickly caught the effect he still had on you. He regained some of his courage, standing up straight. Your eyes quickly surveyed the way his muscles automatically flexed as his arms folded up and crossed his chest. Damn him.
 ‘’I’m sorry I haven’t called or visited. . .I wasn’t sure if you wanted anything to do with me considering. . .,’’ his thoughts trailed off, not wanting to discuss the way Oscar had blown up after catching you. One thing you admired about Oscar, that despite his temper he never laid a hand on you. He would rage and toss some furniture in the opposite direction and yell like a madman. But his rage was mostly directed at Ray that night.
 ‘’We need to talk to you, hermano,’’ Oscar’s deep voice cut the silence as you resisted the urge to glare at the Santos’ leader.
 ‘’Okayyy?’’ Cesar offered an awkward smile, sitting at the dinner table. The same dinner table that just moments prior had been flung on its’ side as Oscar raged throughout the house. You had barely tossed the scattered food into the trash can before Cesar walked in.
 Ray cleared his throat and retreated to the side door of the house, probably smoking a cigarette to calm his nerves as the ‘’adults’’ had their talk.
 ‘’Cesar,’’ you started, reaching across the table to gently grasp his hand. When had he gotten so big? You never once tried to be the mother he had lost to drugs as a five-year-old. You never took away the authority figure that was forcibly bestowed onto Oscar. You were just Y/n; his brother’s girlfriend. But you knew you were the closest thing Cesar ever had to a mother/motherly figure. And you had fucked it all up.
 ‘’What’s going on?’’ his thick brows knotted in confusion. You hesitantly glanced at Oscar, him biting back a glare towards you as he sighed.
 ‘’Y/n is moving out,’’ he mumbled and if you didn’t know Oscar any better, you could’ve sworn there was a hint of sadness in his voice.
 ‘’Wait.. . what?’’ it broke your heart hearing the confusion and panic in Cesar’s voice.
 ‘’Cesar, it’s ok. I’ll still be here whenever you need me. It’s just,’’ you trailed off, your own voice wavering as you tried to muster up the best way to explain things.
 ‘’No it’s not ‘ok.’ Why are you leaving us? Leaving me?’’ Cesar’s voice steadily rose, yanking his hand away from you. The gesture made you wince.
 ‘’Cesar,’’ Oscar’s tone slowly shifted to that of Spooky.
 ‘’No! Tell me why she’s leaving. Why is she really leaving!’’ Cesar stood up abruptly, nearly knocking the chair to the floor. Somewhere outside Ray coughed on a nicotine coated cloud. The room filled with uncomfortable silence.
 ‘’Cesar. Sometimes, people just fall out of love. Things happen. Life happens. Sometimes even adults make really shitty decisions and they change on each other,’’ your voice remained soft as you sadly looked up at the boy you helped raise. You resisted the urge to look at Oscar’s gutted expression, knowing that if you did you would surely lose it. It had been that exact moment you regretted not leaving the house as soon as Ray walked in just hours before.
 Cesar’s gaze softened as he looked down at you, but once his chocolate brown hues fell upon his brother, they quickly hardened with anger.
 ‘’You did this. . .you fucking had to get your dick wet that bad that you didn’t even consider her! She did everything for us! For you! She was there for me when you weren’t! You were too busy being Spooky that you couldn’t be fucking bothered!’’ he snarled.
 ‘’Watch your fucking mouth, Lil Spooky,’’ Oscar steadily rose on his two feet, towering over Cesar. You stood as well, ready to jump into the lion’s den if necessary.
  Cesar scoffed, a mocking smile on his lips before it quickly gave way to the coldest glare. He looked nearly identical to Oscar. ‘’You’ve given Ray so much shit for leaving us and abandoning his family. . .in reality you’re no better.’’
 Oscar lunged forward, the two brothers tangled up as fists were flying.
 ‘’Oscar stop!’’ you screamed, throwing yourself into your ex, dodging fists left and right. Ray barged back into the house, getting a grip of Oscar as you shoved Cesar in the opposite way. The sound of Oscar’s fist coming into contact with Ray’s jaw echoed throughout the house.
 ‘’Get the fuck off of me! Get the fuck off of me!’’ Oscar snarled, desperately trying to shove his father off him to no avail. What Ray lacked in height when it came to Oscar, he made up with in strength. You could see Ray struggling to rein in his anger and maintain his grip on his son. Tears filled your eyes as well as Cesar’s as the two of you fell to the floor, watching the two men struggle.
 ‘’Had enough?’’ Ray grunted. He still smelled like you, and that more than anything broke Oscar.
 Oscar managed to shove the Diaz patriarch off, falling back against the wall as he huffed, tears clouding his vision. His eyes fell on you and for once, he saw the damage his infidelities caused blow up in his face. His baby brother crying into your arms, begging it all to stop as you cried to yourself in the corner. Both of you looked so small, you looked so defeated. He had fucked up. You met his broken gaze, shaking your head as if you could will all of this to evaporate. You had fucked up. The next morning, you began looking around Freeridge for apartments. The next few weeks, Oscar helped you load up your car as you moved twenty-five minutes away from the only home you knew. The day after that? You gathered the rest of your belongings and bit back a sob as you held Cesar in a crushing hug. As you looked over his shoulder, you saw Oscar leaning against the porch’s structure, biting his lip as he looked down at you, fighting the urge to ask you to stay. To work through it. But he quickly realized that was what he had been asking of you throughout all of these years. And that is why he remained silent as you pulled out of the Diaz’s driveway. He didn’t move until your car was out of sight.
 You shook your head, leaning against the island in the middle of your kitchen. Your hands rubbed and massaged at your temples, biting down on your bottom lip to prevent the tears from falling. ‘’That was on me,’’ you whispered, voice croaking with emotion. You jumped when you felt Ray’s strong hand on your shoulder. You gasped as a jolt of electricity passed through the two of you. Judging from the quick intake of breath, Ray felt it too.
 ‘’I’m so sorry,’’ he whispered. You straightened out, looking up at Ray despite still only reaching his collar bone. The inner struggle was clear as day in Ray’s eyes. He was undoubtfully attracted to you. But more than that, he admired you. The way you cared for his sons. The way you managed to handle the lifestyle of the Santos while still obtaining your classy demeanor. You were capable of holding down a family. And although you were insecure thanks to what his eldest son had put you through, Ray wanted nothing more than to reassure you of your worth.
 You hesitated for just a moment, before lunging upwards and meeting Ray in a passionate kiss. A kiss that conveyed all the words you wished to say, but didn’t have the strength to voice. His hands clutched your hip and cradled the side of your neck as he returned the kiss tenfold. Whether it was lust, genuine interest, curiosity, or some weird concoction of all three you found it entirely all too easy to throw caution to the wind around this man.
 You nipped at Ray’s bottom lip playfully, biting back a grin when you solicited a low moan from him. Pride be damned. Morals be damned. You had no obligation to Oscar anymore. Cesar didn’t need to know about this. It would just be a secret between the two of you.
 The whimper that escaped your lips as he forcefully tugged off your top sent shivers down Ray’s spine. He grunted when his eyes feasted on the exposed skin. Without him even asking you, you unclasped your bra and stood topless in front of him. He dove down, expertly taking your nipple into his hot mouth and began twirling his tongue around your hardened bud. You moaned mewled, hands running through his short hair and roaming his broad, muscled back. Your eyes rested on the faded Santos cross on his arm, whimpering when he nipped at your sensitive skin.
 ‘’R-Ray,’’ you moaned lowly, mouth falling open when his hand made contact with your ass in a playful slap. You had no time to recover before he pulled away from you, gently turning you so that your front was pushed and pinned against the cool surface of the granite island. You hissed as your already hard, sensitive tits pressed against the freezing surface. You rested your cheek against the counter, shivering as Ray yanked down your leggings.
 ‘’Fuck,’’ he moaned, seeing your wet core fully exposed and presented to him.
 ‘’You’re going to be the death of me mami,’’ he whispered, pressing his bulge against your gaping hole. You bit your lip at the heat that emitted from his still clothed cock. You knew what was awaiting you and your insides coiled at the anticipation.
 Each of his massive hands took a firm hold on the globes of your ass, gripping them and spreading you apart so that you were on full display under him. You let out a shaky breath between panting when his hot saliva met your tightness. His thumb spread it against your folds, teasing your clit before diving two fingers into your awaiting cunt. Ray all but growled at the way you gripped his digits. The delicious way you pulsed and clenched excitedly around his middle and index finger. He found himself constantly thinking, ‘I could get used to this.’
 ‘’Ray,’’ your needy voice broke him out of his thoughts as he folded over you, you feeling ever muscle of his chest against your bare back as he pressed light kisses against your shoulder before finally meeting your cheek and then your plump lips.
 ‘’I need you,’’ you whispered, leaning into his kisses and sighing when you heard him pull himself from his pants.
 ‘’You have me, princessa,’’ he grunted, working himself with one hand as the other tangled with yours’. ‘’You have me, all of me,’’ he groaned thrusting his hips forward and filling you with a brutal, singular thrust. You cried out, the burn of him stretching your tight canal was familiar and slightly painful, but divine all at once. His hand clenched yours, as if assuring you that you were ok, his lips still kissing the tears that threatened to escape the corners of your eyes.
 ‘’Fuck y/n,’’ he groaned, savoring the feel of his cock dragging within your tight pussy, pulling you back towards him as bit, only for you to bounce forward as he thrusted back into your core. He set a fast, brutal pace as the sounds of his thrusts echoed off the walls. You were grateful that your neighbors were at work, the wanton mewls and cries that escaped your lips would’ve surely caught their attention. As his hand held yours throughout the entire time he fucked into you, the other had a firm grip on your shoulder. Pinning you down so that you couldn’t slip from his cock and pulling you back to impale yourself on to his thickness.
 You attempted to burn the sounds of his grunts and groans, as well as the squelching of your tight core every time his hips snapped against you from behind, but soon became overwhelmed. He was heavy and hot inside of you. You could feel exactly where he was every time he was seated inside of you. Your body bounced in tune with his movements, but the feeling of his heavy, throbbing manhood in your cunt was something you’d always savor.
 Before you could even speak, waves of euphoria crashed within you as your release fell over his still hard cock. You could only cry out his name, panting it out as his hold on you tightened. He pressed fully against you, curling over your back as his cock throbbed and pulsed violently, painting your insides with his release.
 His arms wrapped around your front, dragging you so that you rested against his chest, impaling you on his still solid dick. With awkward movements he led you past the kitchen, into your bedroom while every step you took resulted in another jolt as you practically balanced yourself on his cock.
 Ray only pulled out briefly, laying you on your back on your mattress. He hovered over you, panting as his eyes glazed over at the sight of you. Your hair sprawled out like a crown around you, chest heaving with your labored breath and the post-orgasm tremors that shook you. What really caught his attention was the sight of your pretty pussy, still impossibly tight, dripping with his load onto your sky-blue comforter.
 ‘’Ray,’’ you whispered, reaching up for him. He laid over you, crashing his lips against your lips, seating himself back inside you. Your hands clawed at the white tank he still had on, only or him to pull away slightly and yank it off, tossing it carelessly into the corner of your room. His sweatpants were next along with any other article of clothing he had previously worn. All that was left was himself, bare and all.
 Your leggings had been long abandoned in the kitchen and the moment his bare skin met yours, your fates were sealed. It was hot, passionate, deplorable, mind-blowing, wicked, otherworldly sex. Your nails embedded themselves into his back and shoulders, your legs wrapping around his hips as they crashed into you. Your moans mingled with one another, lips and teeth occasionally clashing against each other as he moved in you.
 ‘’It’s been too fucking long without this tight pussy, princessa. My pussy,’’ he growled, hammering into you as you struggled to keep up with his thrusts. Your clutched the comforter beneath you as that familiar coil began curling and tightening within you. He was reaching new depths, exploring new parts of you that you didn’t even know existed. And all you could do was lay there, moan out his name, and take it.
 ‘’Fuck, Ray, yes, fuck it feels so good,’’ you whined, throwing your head back as he began nipping and sucking on the column on your neck.
 ‘’Cum for me, mi reina,’’ he grunted, every muscle flexing as he moaned and panted above you. His hands were wrapped around your hips, dragging and pulling you upwards to meet his thrusts. The coil was impossibly tight, tears running down your cheeks and falling onto the bed below from the sensation of it all.
 But came you did, violently around his manhood. You shook underneath him, mouth warped into an ‘’o’’ shape as you sighed and moaned under him. His thrusts sped up, to your shock, and it all came to a close the moment he pulled you to him, tucking his face into the base of your neck as his hot, thick load filled you once more.
 As he pulsed within you, your pussy clenching and unclenching from the aftermath of two mind-blowing orgasms back to back, you simply laid there. You basked in the aftermath of it all, shivering when his load began dripping out of you and pooling onto the blanket, leaving a quarter-sized dark spot in its’ path. Once your breathing returned to normal, Ray met your eyes, a softness in them. His mouth met yours in a comforting, warm kiss. He was still inside you when you closed your eyes and fell into a satisfying, deep sleep.
  When you had opened your eyes, it was visibly night-time. The orange glow of the streetlights illuminated your bedroom from your sheer curtains. Ray was knocked out beside you, one muscled arm thrown over your side in a protective manner. A small smile graced your lips, widening when you felt the strangely satisfying soreness between your legs.
 You quietly got out of bed, maneuvering around the apartment to get a glass of water while trying not to disturb Ray. You had no idea where this was going to lead you. You weighed the possibilities. To date your ex-boyfriend’s father just seemed so ridiculous and wrong. No matter what Oscar had put you through with his infidelities, to go ahead and enter a relationship with his father just seemed cruel to you. And what would Cesar think if he were to catch you and Ray together? At the same time, you didn’t want to say goodbye to Ray. Aside from great sex, you felt a genuine connection with him. He was older, yes, but he made you feel things that nobody ever had. You huffed, sipping on your water as you felt the beginnings of a headache approaching. A sudden knock and turn of your front door startled you to the point you nearly dropped your glass onto the hardwood floor.
 ‘’Y/n,’’ Cesar’s voice was muffled, but clear as day through the door.
 You gulped, body stiff with shock and fear. From your bedroom, the mattress creaked as Ray sat up, eyes groggy with sleep.
 ‘’Y/n?’’ he called out, getting up to check what the commotion was.
 ‘’Fuck me,’’ you sighed, mind racing and heart rising to your throat once more. You were so fucked.

Tumblr media
The boxes are heavy, your arms straining as you carry them through the diner to the back. You open the door to the kitchen with your back, grunting as you enter it.
“Need help?” Seokjin asks before he storms to your side and takes three of the boxes.
“Thanks”, you say, feeling so much lighter now that the heavy weight is gone.
“Why are you even carrying four boxes? I don’t want you to break your back or something, you can go easy”, he says as he sorts the boxes into the shelves in the cooling room.
“I wanted to proof to myself that I’m strong. All that working out has to be good for something”, you mumble, squatting down to put the milk cartons out of the cardboard box to put them on the shelves instead.
“You’re stupid, sorry but I’m not in the mood to write an accident report for you nor do I have the money to pay for your sick leave. Also who the hell should I pick as my new workout buddy if you break your back?” Seokjin says dryly, making you scoff.
“Noted. I’ll be more careful from now on.”
Seokjin chuckles, ruffling your hair afterwards.
“That’s my girl. Are there still boxes outside?”
You shake your head, “nope Jimin took care of the last ones.”
Jimin appears in the doorframe at the perfect time, carrying two boxes with ease.
“Where should I put them?” he asks.
“Over there next to the fruit”, Seokjin tells him, pointing at the far right corner at the back of the spacious cooling room.
“Alrighty.”
Seokjin watches you both work for a moment before he nods in content.
“I’ll be in the kitchen if you need me. Keep up the great work guys”, he announces, strutting out of the cooling room afterwards. He is even whistling as he does. He has been in a great mood these past few days, you’re blaming it on the mysterious letter he had been reading over a cup of tea. Maybe his ex wife finally finalized the divorce, which meant he wouldn’t have to pay her any more.
The groceries are quickly stored away with yours and Jimin’s hard work combined. You even have a few more minutes to chill and drink a hot cup of black coffee before the diner opens. You take a big bite of a chocolate donut, munching on it happily whilst Jimin munches on a banana. All the way healthy, just like he always is. Well, if you ignore his dubious amount of alcohol intake of course.
“How was your friendship date with Taehyung yesterday?” he asks, leaning back on the counter.
“Fun. We talked for a long time.”
“Yeah? I’m not at all jealous nooo”, he mumbles, pouting as he sends you an annoyed glare.
“You could have come with us, you do know that. Right?”
“What?” Jimin shakes his head no vigorously, “I didn’t know that.”
“Well, next time you do. You can always join Jiminie”, you say, sending him a sweet smile.
“Good, I fucking hope I can, cause I”, he leans closer and pokes his finger into your chest, “am still your bestest of friends and I don’t like being left out.”
“Yeah, yeah I get it dude stop poking me”, you chuckle, wrapping your fingers around his hand.
“Say I’m still your bestest of friends”, Jimin insists, playful smirk on his lips.
“You are still my bestest of friends. My annoying best friend for life”, you coo.
“Yes I am”, Jimin sends you a flirty wink and shrugs his shoulders, returning to munching on his banana.
You shake your head and chuckle fondly, leaning against the counter with your back turned to the door.
“So how is it going with you and Yoongi?”
“Same old, same old. You know”, Jimin shrugs his shoulders, “nothing new.”
“Nothing new? I swear to god bitch I know that look. What aren’t you telling me?”
“It’s nothing”, Jimin whines, “you’d only judge me.”
“Come on tell me”, you nudge his arm, “we ain’t one for keeping secret in this friendship.”
“Noo it’s embarrassing.”
“Tell me or else Taehyung is my new best friend.”
Jimin gasps dramatically, hand thrown over his mouth and his big eyes sending daggers your way.
“Are you blackmailing me right now?”
“Maybe”, you shrug your shoulders.
“You are such a whore”, Jimin gasps, rolling his eyes, “fine I’ll fucking tell you, but I swear to fuck if you get mad at me.”
“I won’t get mad.
“Promise?”
“Promise.”
“Fine, uhm”, Jimin takes a deep breath, “I have to move to Dale again for college next week.”
“Yeah I know that. Aaand?”
“And”, Jimin swallows, lowering his head, “I asked Yoongi to move in with me.”
“You-“, you screech, you full on screech in a mixture of shock and excitement, “you asked him to move in with you? Biiitch? Hoooe? No wayyy!”
“Yeah way and uhm”, Jimin starts smiling, cheeks glowing in happiness, “he said yes.”
You screech again, hitting his arm repeatedly as you jump up and down on the spot.
“I am so happy for you, no joke! Yayayay!”
“Okay, okay relax”, Jimin chuckles, wiggling away from your hands, “I still need my ears. Jeez.”
“Sorry, I don’t even know why I got so excited”, you murmur, cheeks heating up in embarrassment, “Are you actually?” Jimin looks at you with big puppy eyes, “so you don’t think I’m going far too fast?”
“I mean”, you shrug your shoulders, taking a sip of your coffee, “maybe you’re going a little fast, but that’s always been you. You ain’t one for waiting fifty years and I think that’s cool. That’s what makes you, well, you.”
“I don’t know if you just roasted me or complimented me”, Jimin says, quirking his left eyebrow at you.
“Maybe a bit of both”, you say nonchalantly, playful grin on your lips as you look at him.
Jimin smiles, lowering his head in shyness.
“Thank you ___, your support means the world to me.”
“Sure, don’t mention it.”
“Oh and also”, Jimin says, cheeks heating up, “I may have asked Yoongi to come over today and uhm, talk to you?”
“You did what?”
“Pwease be nice to him pweaseee, pweasee”, Jimin begs cutely, blinking his puppy eyes at you as good as possible.
“I’m sorry but wha-“
As if planned Yoongi struts through the door before you can even finish your sentence, announcing his arrival with a low “good day everyone!”
Jimin’s face lights up at the sight of the black haired biker. He claps into his hands, almost vibrating on the spot from all the happiness spilling out of him.
“Yoongi baby!!! You came!!” Jimin squeaks, running up to Yoongi in full speed before jumping at him, wrapping his legs around Yoongi’s waist and burying his face in his neck.
Yoongi stumbled backwards, “careful I’m carrying flowers”, he grumbles, secretly smiling like the biggest idiot.
“You brought me flowers?” Jimin squeaks, getting to his feet to gaze at Yoongi.
Yoongi nods, shy smile tugging at the corner of his lip as he presents a big bouquet of pink roses to Jimin. “Pink roses for my pretty pink flower.” (oh, yeah Jimin has pink hair now, hence the nickname).
The later accepts it with a big gasp and sparkling eyes, burying his nose in the flowers and inhaling loudly.
“They are so pretty. I love them so much, thank you”, he gushes, pressing the biggest smooch to Yoongi’s lips afterwards.
And that is your cue to look away and act all busy by sorting washing your coffee cup. You don’t want to be the person caught staring at their friends like a creep. You can hear them giggle behind you. The giggling comes closer and closer.
Jimin calls your name, making you turn around.
“Yeah?”
“Yoongles is here”, he giggles, hugging Yoongi’s arm.
“I can see”, you say, forcing a smile to your lips. It still feels kind of weird. You are happy for Jimin of course you are, but Yoongi left you too. He hurt you and he didn’t even give you an apology. You don’t really know if it would be right for you to act like nothing happened between you and him.
“He actually has something for you. Come on honey bear give it to her”, Jimin says as he nudges Yoongi’s side.
Yoongi lowers his eyes shyly, pulling a flower pot from behind his back.
“What’s that?” you ask, studying the beautiful white orchid.
“My, uhm”, Yoongi scratches his neck, “my apology. I-it’s an orchid, Jimin told me that they are your favourite flowers so I thought I would get you one”, he mumbles, putting the pot on the counter next to you.
“You got that for me?”
Yoongi nods, eyes flitting up to look into yours, “I know it’s not nearly enough to symbolize my regret for leaving you, but I hope that it can still show you how sorry I am”, he says, scratching his neck the entire time as he speaks.
You touch the gentle pedals of the orchid, smiling softly. It is really pretty and it is a really thoughtful present, even if you know that Jimin did the shopping. It’s the thought that counts, right?
“I know we didn’t have that much one on one time, but I consider you one of my closest friends and I feel really awful for abandoning you, I hope that we can be friends again one day”, he continues.
You flutter your eyes up to look at Yoongi. He is gnawing on his lower lip in nervousness, eyes racing around the room. You look at Jimin next, who is biting on his nails from all the nerves killing him. You look back at Yoongi.
“You are a dick and also kind of an ass. Do you even know how much you broke Taes heart by leaving him like a total asshole?”
“Yeah…” Yoongi lowers his head, “…I know and, and I-I’m trying to w-work on my f-friendship with T-Tae too. I really regret l-leaving him like that.”
“Good I hope you do”, you spit, earning yourself a slap on the arm by Jimin.
“He is trying here”, he mouths to you.
“Well, duh”, you mouth back, rolling your eyes at him, “but I don’t care.”
“Can’t you try for me”, Jimin gesticulates at his own chest.
You sigh, “fine.”
“So here’s the deal”, you say, making Yoongi raise his head.
“Yeah?”
“I still dislike you. Let’s put it like that. But I will give you a chance for Jimin’s sake. Cause this dude”, you nod your head into Jimin’s direction, “fucking loves you and I don’t wanna be the best friend who hates on the boyfriend.”
“So there is a chance that maybe one day”, Yoongi clears his throat, “one day we’d be friends again?” he asks in a whisper.
You study his face, tongue in cheek and finger tapping on your arm impatiently. You look over to Jimin, who is begging you to say yes with a sad pout. You look back at Yoongi and click your tongue.
“You promise not to leave again?” you say dryly.
“I promise! On my mothers grave!” he says without hesitation, “I won’t leave Jimin or you or Taehyung again. I mean it!”
“You acknowledge that you hurt me deeply? And that you hurt Taehyung even more?”
Yoongi nods his head vigorously, “and I am so sorry for it. I was such a coward and an ass. I’m really sorry.”
“Okay fine. I try to tolerate you and maybe one day. Maybe. I said maybe. We can be friends again”, you say, nodding.
Yoongi exhales in relief before he pulls you into a surprise hug. You gasp, letting Yoongi press you to his chest with his fingers in your hair and his chin resting on your shoulder.
“Thank you ___, that means a lot to me”, he says, giving your body one last squeeze before he lets go of you and steps back.
You blink at him, mouth hanging open. Yoongi starts blushing, lowering his eyes in shyness.
“Jimin told me that you like hugs, so I figured. I don’t know why I did that, sorry that was really weird right now”, he mumbles and you can’t help but chuckle.
“It’s fine, your hug was nice. Perfect amount of squeezing and caressing”, you tease, nudging his arm.
Yoongi pouts, blushing even more.
“See? I knew that the hug would be too much Jiminie”, he whines, making you and Jimin laugh at his cute antics.
“Gosh honey bear you are the cutest, come here and let me kiss that stupid face of yours”, Jimin coos, making kissy faces at Yoongi as he squishes the laters cheeks.
Yoongi just accepts his affections with a tiny little smile on his face and quiet little grunts of approval leaving him, all whilst crossing his arms in front of his chest of course. He is a badass biker boy after all.
“I’ll give you two your privacy, don’t you dare touch my orchid though or else”, you say, scurrying off afterwards.
A few customers came in right that moment, giving you the perfect excuse to escape their annoyingly cute antics.
Tumblr media
Jimin and Yoongi soon find refuge at a table, staring longingly into each others’ eyes whilst holding hands. They are chatting, but you haven’t really found the courage yet to join their conversation. They just seem too lost in their own world for you to just barge in and start talking with them.
Not that you would have lots of time to join them anyways. The customers left a few minutes ago, leaving back the probably biggest mess you have ever seen. The tables are dirty, covered in food stains. Even on the leather benches they managed to smear ketchup and burger grease. You groan and scurry off to get a cleaning bucket and then off you go ready to clean everything.
Yoongi and Jimin don’t even notice your fight with the food stains, still hypnotized by each other like the biggest lovebirds ever. The only difference being the raspberry milkshake on the table they had decided to share. Yes you had to serve it to them, if someone was wondering.
You are on your knees, picking up the fries the customers had thrown all over the floor.
“Next time I’ll spit in their drinks, piece of shit people”, you mumble under your breath, throwing the cold fries into a waste bag aggressively.
Someone taps your shoulder, calling your name. It startles you so much that you quickly straighten up only to hit your head on the table.
“Ouch fuck”, you hiss at the sharp pain exploding in your head.
“Oh careful”, the voice says and a hand comes to rest on the spot you had hurt. You look up. It is none other than Jeon Jungkook looking down at you with big eyes, styled in thick winter clothes and with his cute nose red from the cold wind.
“Jungkook? You?” you say, scurrying to your feet, “ouch I really bumped my head there”, you whine, rubbing the pulsating spot.
“Want me to take a look at it?” Jungkook offers, already combing his fingers through your hair.
“Nah it’s fine. I’ll be okay”, you dismiss him, wiggling out of his touch. The feeling of it made you tingle like crazy and it quite frankly overwhelmed you. It was so tender and loving, you weren’t ready for it.
“Please uhm, wait a minute I just need to- uhm you know?” you tell him, not looking into his eyes and then you run off to the back of the diner, meeting Jimin halfway.  
“He is here”, he whispers to you.
“No shit Sherlock. I saw. You saw how he touched my head?”
“Yeah I did, it was cute.”
“No it wasn’t”, you hiss, “it send me into a total frenzy.”
“So? You want him back, stop being such a drama queen”, Jimin says, nudging your shoulder.
“You’re not helping.”
“Yeah I am”, Jimin grins, “oh for fucks sake ___ put that stupid bucket down, I’ll clean it up for you”, he says and grabs you by your shoulders, “go outside there and talk to him.”
“I don’t want to. I’m scared.”
“Hush. Out. Now.”
And with that he pushes you back outside, making you stumble rather ungracefully.
Jungkook raises his head at the noise you made, eyes instantly filling with panic.
He had sat down on a barstool, watching you close the distance between you and him with the help of Jimin’s hands on your shoulders. It is the same exact barstool he had sat down on when he first talked to you. He sends you a shy smile and you send it right back.
“So Jungkook! You want something to eat?” Jimin says before any of you can talk.
“Uhm”, Jungkook starts fumbling with his thumbs, “uhm…”
You study his face in the meantime. He had changed so much since the first day you met him. His hair is so much longer, his cheeks a lot more hollow too. You've only realised it now when the memory of old days came back to you and reminded you of how healthy he once looked. The break up really took a toll on him too, you never even noticed it before. 
“Choco pancakes with bananas would be great”, Jungkook finally says, but you don’t even really hear him.
“I’ll get them for you”, Jimin says, turning his attention to you, “don’t worry I’ll take my time. Also don’t you dare fuck this up.”
“Mhm, yeah”, you nod your head on instinct, eyes glued to Jungkook. You have no idea what Jimin just told you, instead Jungkook’s eyes bewitched you.
Jimin leaves you then, signaling Yoongi to follow him to the back. You and Jungkook are alone.
“Hey”, he greets you shyly.
“Hi”, you murmur, feeling like you might throw up the coffee and that stupid donut.
“Soo we’re alone”, he says, having to chuckle in nervousness.
“Yeah, I guess we are”, you agree, laughing breathlessly as you scratch the back of your neck.
“Cool. Uhm, yeah.”
“Yeah…”
You lower your head. Jungkook holds onto the counter with both hands. They are so red, probably frozen from the cold. Hold them. The two words come to your mind in an instant, scaring you so much you have to physically hide your hands in the pocket of your apron to stop yourself from reaching out.
“How are you?” he asks you quietly, “does your head still hurt?”
“No, I’m good. You?”
“Yeah”, Jungkook looks to the side, “good too.”
“Cool, cool”, you say, looking to the ground.
“You wanna sit down?” he asks, scratching the back of his neck.
“Uh, yeah we could do that”, you stutter, pointing at the table in the dark corner of the diner, “over there.”
“Our table? Sounds good to me.”
That twists the tiniest of knives in your heart. He didn’t have to remind you of all the memories you and him made at that table. His shameless flirting, that stupid hand kiss, your witty back-and-forth, those longing gazes. You clench your jaw, lowering your head as you walk. Those memories are hurting like crazy.
Jungkook waits for you to round the counter so he could walk next to you, keeping his healthy distance whilst playing with the zipper of his jacket. You are playing with the hem of your apron, feeling just as nervous as he seems to be.
“It’s really cold outside, don’t you think?” he tries to make small talk.
“Yeah, it’s almost winter here”, you answer.
“You’re right. I almost froze my ass off driving here.”
“Oh no.”  
You both stop in front of the desk, staring at it with unsure eyes.
“Uh...you first?” he offers.
“Mhm yeah”, you answer, sitting down. You keep your hands between your legs, twisting your fingers in the material of your apron. If you didn’t hold onto something you would spiral out of total control. This is the most nervous and uncomfortable you have ever felt. There is a difference between meeting someone on accident and talking to them and actually meeting up with them to talk. You just realised that.
Jungkook sits down opposite of you, looking around the diner just so he wouldn’t have to look at you.
“You don’t have lots of customers today. The diner’s doing well?” he forces out, scratching his neck awkwardly.
“Yeah, it’s doing well. The weather’s just weird.”
“Mhm, nobody wants to leave their places. I get it.”
“Yeah exactly.”
You sneak a quick glance at each other, looking away the moment your eyes met. Jungkook clears his throat, you swallow to try and stop your throat from constricting.
“So how do you like your bike?”
“Uh, it’s good.”
“Aha okay, cool. I’m glad you like it.”
“Yeah.”
Jungkook lowers his head, you look over your shoulder. Where’s Jimin with the waffles? This is going horribly.
“Did you have fun yesterday?”
“With what?”
“With Taehyung.”
“Yeah, it was really nice. We had fun”, the fight you had you won’t mention. Yes, you are trying to make him a little jealous right now.  
“Oh, okay. Cool”, Jungkook mumbles, trying to hide his jaw clenching by fake yawning instead.
You cough twice, looking over your shoulder to the kitchen. What the hell is taking him so long? It’s just two pieces of sweet dough, it’s not that hard to make. Come on Park Jimin don’t let me wait, you think shaking in nervousness. If only you had listened to him better, than you would have heard that he was taking his sweet time in the kitchen for yours and Jungkook’s sake. And yes he is standing by the door with Yoongi, both of them peaking outside and feeling like secret agents whilst doing so.
“Are you busy?” Jungkook asks.
You turn your head to him, looking at him.
“What do you mean?”
“You keep looking over your shoulder. Am I keeping you from something important? I can come over later if that’s better for you.”
“Uhm…”, you look over your shoulder one last time, “…but Jimin’s already getting your pancakes.”
“Ah, you’re right. Okay then I’ll stay, it would be a waste not to eat them”, he says, looking at the table.
You study him, following the soft swirls in his hair at the top of his head. Maybe your eyes were just doing tricks on you, but somehow his hair looks a lot softer than it did when you first met him, curlier too. It suits him, even if admitting it makes your stomach feel funny.
Jungkook raises his head, your eyes meet.
“Oh sorry”, you apologize quickly looking away.
“No I’m sorry”, he says, looking away as well.
You close your eyes, furrowing your brows in frustration. This is killing you, you hate every second of it. Why is talking to him so hard all of a sudden? You had no problem talking to him before all of this happened. Why is it so hard now?
“Hey ___ uhm”, Jungkook calls your attention.
“Yes?” you look at him, even if in doing so you grow even more nervous.
“I don’t really know how to start this so I’m just gonna start by saying how sorry I am. I know you don’t want my apologies anymore, but I’m really sorry.”
“Oh yeah, that-“, you lower your eyes, “-it’s okay.”
“Really?” he sounds surprised.
“No actually…it’s not. I just don’t know how to start something like this either.”
“Maybe, uh…did you perhaps think about what I said yesterday?”
“I did actually”, you say, fumbling with your thumbs.
“Well? What do you think about it?”
“I have a question first. Why?”
Jungkook looks at you, tilting his head to the side.  He is clearly confused.
“What do you mean why?”
“Why did you take so goddamn fucking long to come back?” your voice was quaking as you asked the question.
Jungkook lowers his eyes and then his head.
“Because I am fucking coward”, he whispers, clenching his hands to fists on the table, “I wanted to come back sooner, I really did. But when I finally realised how big of a mistake I made, days had already passed”, he inhales shakily, “I was too scared to face you.”
“Too scared to face me? Kook I literally waited for you. With every shadow passing by that window, I sat up and hoped that it would be you. Yes I was furious with you, but shit I would have forgiven you.”
Jungkook looks up with glassy eyes.
“I know…” he chokes out, lower lip trembling, “you’re right I am a pathetic coward. I was so scared to face you, so I procrastinated and procrastinated and procrastinated, always finding some dumb, fucking excuse as to why today wasn’t the day I would finally face you”, he lowers his eyes again, “and when the days turned into weeks and those weeks turned into months I felt more and more unworthy of you. I thought ‘fuck man, you dumb asshole, why would she want to hear you out now that all those weeks had passed? You lost your chance ages ago, asshole’. That’s what I thought.”
“So what changed your mind?”
Jungkook raises his head and locks eyes with you. He blinks. A single tear rolls down his cheek.
“You’re the love of my life”, he confesses.
“Jungkook…” you choke out, feeling your throat constrict in the desire to cry.
“You’re the love of my life ___. Holy shit you are the first person, who I felt safe enough to open my heart to. I never told anyone that I loved them before you, but with you it’s so easy to say because it feels so good. And…” he lowers his eyes, “….a few weeks ago me and Yoongi visited that town in the west again. 2010, you know?”
Your stomach twists painfully.
“I know, you sent a postcard to Tae.”
He looks at you, “did he read it?”
“No, he burned it without reading”, you answer him dryly.
“I see”, he lowers his head, inhaling shakily, “I met Taes crush there, “he continues, “you know, the one who I made out with?”
“Yeah, how could I forget”, you say, voice icy. So he did meet her.
“At first I didn’t even recognize her cause she changed so much”, he chuckles, “when I finally did, she invited me over to her place.”
“I don’t need to know. What the hell?” you spit, heart terribly close to breaking.
“No you don’t get it ___. I didn’t sleep with her or like anyone else for that matter”, he insists, “she invited me over to her place for coffee with her husband and five kids.”
“Oh…”
“And I just started crying like a goddamn fucking baby in front of her, because I realised that this could have been me if I hadn’t abandoned you. I could have been the one who invited her over for coffee with my wife and five dogs.”
“Loving the fact that you said dogs”, you choke out, trying your hardest not to concentrate on the tears dwelling in your eyes.
Your eyes meet for the briefest of moments. Jungkook smiles. You smile. Then you look away again in order not to cry.
“That day I decided that I don’t want to be a coward anymore and that I would do anything in my power to fix what I had broken and I know that I’m an asshole for taking so fucking long to come back, but fuck ___ I love you so fucking much and I just had to try one last time.”
“Mh-hm”, you sob once, catching yourself quickly. Jungkook reaches out, wanting to comb his fingers through your hair like he always did when you cried, but deciding against it in the end. He knows that you don’t want to be touched by him, you said so yourself all those days ago. He doesn’t want to scare you away again with being overly touchy.
“Fuck”, you choke out, wiping at your eyes aggressively, “I’m so mad at you”, you confess.
“I understand and you have every right to be.”
“You, you n-never should have left in t-the first place”, you stutter, terribly close to crying again.
“I know”, he hides his shaking hands under the table, “tell me what I can do to fix it.”
“I don’t know”, you pause to force down a sob and take a deep breath afterwards, “yesterday you told me that you regret the thing you did to me and on the mountain plateau you told me that you felt too guilty to face me. But…”your heart feels so terribly heavy in your chest, “…I’m so mad because I know that we could have solved all of this back then if only we talked. That’s what I’m so mad about, that you ran away from that conversation like a coward.”  
Jungkook nods his head, keeping his eyes lowered, “I know. I know I should have just faced you and talked to you, but-“, Jungkook stops talking, lowering his head. He doesn’t talk after that, just keeps on staring at the table whilst clenching his jaw.
“But? What else? There must be something else, other than that you were too scared to face me.”
“I felt like a monster. When I pushed you and you fell and cut your hand everyone looked at me with so much anger and hatred and then when you flinched away from me”, he whimpers painfully, squeezing his eyes shut, “holy shit I felt like the biggest abuser ever. And-“, he swallows, “- then I realised that I actually became an abuser. I got angry at you all the time, followed you around like a dog, locked you inside our room and pushed you. So at first I stayed away to protect you from me. But when days had passed, I hated myself so much for being such an abusing, asshole coward that I couldn’t face you anymore.”
“An abuser? Jungkook, I never saw you as my abuser. I knew that you pushing me that hard was an accident and all those other things? We talked about them and cleared the misunderstandings up.”
“But I pushed you. You, you cut your hand because of me. I made you bleed”, he says, regret lacing his voice, “I hurt you”, he whispers shakily, body quivering as the memory of that day haunts his mind.  
“I did cut my hand, but look”, you open your palm for him to look at.
Jungkook is too scared to do so at first, shaking his head as he looks outside instead.
“No”, he chokes out, voice pitched.
“Look”, you insist, scooting the hand closer to him.
Jungkook turns his head slowly, holding his breath. Then his eyes finally land on your palm, growing twice in size. He chokes out a laugh, hand falling over his mouth as his eyes fill with tears in an instant.
“See? Everything healed. It didn’t even leave a scar behind”, you say.
“I-“, Jungkook lets out a mixture of a laugh and a sob, “oh my god”, he touches your palm with shaking fingers, “it healed?” he is talking to himself more than he is to you.
“Yes, it did. It’s like nothing ever happened”, you say, closing your fingers around him.
Jungkook sniffles, inhaling shakily. His fingers intertwine with yours, his head lowering until his forehead is resting on your knuckles.
“I’m so relieved”, he squeaks, clearly fighting with his tears.
“Hey, don’t cry, it’s okay”, you say, caressing his cheek with your thumb.
He straightens up, shaking his head like crazy.
“No it’s not”, he chokes out, rubbing at his eyes.
“Yeah it is, the cuts healed and I feel fine. I really do”, you assure him in a soft voice.
“I-it’s not that”, he whispers, lips trembling.
“What else is it?”
“___ I-“, your eyes meet, “-I’ll be leaving to go up north.”
Your stomach clenches, a sharp pain courses through your chest.
“What? You’re leaving again?” you gasp, letting go of his hand to hide it under the table instead.
Jungkook almost starts crying at that, having to close his eyes as he speaks.
“I applied for an apprenticeship at a tattoo studio six weeks ago and I got a call last night telling me that I got the spot and that I have to start on Monday."
“Wow”, you chuckle to cover up the hurt, “You’re leaving again.”
Jungkook lets his eyes travel over your face, he blinks quickly. You scoff, crossing your arms in front of your chest.
“Of course you are. But congrats, I know how much you dreamt of becoming one. You must be so happy.”
Your heart hurts so much. Shit you are so angry at yourself. You stupid woman, almost fell for his stupid charm again.
“Maybe a little”, he says, voice barely above a whisper, “I’m sorry.”
“You plan on coming back?”
Jungkook nods his head before he shakes it and then just shrugs his shoulders, “I don’t know yet”, he is far too scared to decide on an answer in fear he might ruin everything with it.
“Okay”, you answer without a hint of emotion in your voice. Deep down you would have wanted him to say yes, but in your mind you know it is better this way.
Jungkook shifts on the bench, heart almost giving up on him in his chest.
“P-please don’t be mad. I, I only accepted the offer because of you.”
“Of me?” you gasp, blinking in confusion so vigorously you become dizzy.
Jungkook shoulders rise to his ears from all the internal cringing he is doing.
“I-I meant that, I thought that t-today would be fruitless again, so I-I accepted it as my plan B, but now you wanna talk to me again and it’s all so confusing now.”
“What?” you blink at him, “are you blaming me for you leaving again?”
He doesn’t say anything. He even dares to stay quiet, lowering his head even more.
“I can’t believe you. Are you actually blaming me right now?” you spit, growing angry.
“I wasn’t!” he looks up in panic, shaking his head vigorously, “I really wasn’t trying to blame you. You have no blame here. I’m the one to blame. I made a rash decision, I acted without thinking-“
“-you didn’t even give our relationship a second chance”, you interrupt him, watching as his shoulders sag.
“No, darling…I mean ___, please”, his lower lip trembles, “don’t say that. That’s not true, please.”
“Whatever”, you look away, watching the world outside.
“I can tell them that I won’t go. If you want to I can tell them no.”
“No, just go”, you tell him darkly. You are angry at him, of course you are, and you want him to stay with you, of course you do, but you can’t be the one who forces him to give up his dreams. All those notebooks he has filled with his tattoo ideas, all those intimate moments when he used your body as his doodle canvas, all those hours you spent listening to him babble about being a tattoo artist with his eyes big and sparkly in excitement. You couldn’t take that opportunity away from him.
“Are you sure?” he asks quietly, gnawing on his lower lip.
“Sure. I’m not part of your life anymore anyways”, you spit. You need to stay mad, need to push him away.  
“Don’t say that, please”, Jungkook murmurs sadly, forcing the painful lump in his throat down with all his might.
“Whatever, it’s the truth anyways”, you ignore his pleads, giving him the side eye instead.
“No it’s not. You’ll always be part of my life. Please don’t say that, please”, he insists quietly, but you ignore him.
It had started to rain, pouring down on the earth in harsh showers of freezing water. The palm trees almost break in the strong wind, the sky is dark and grey. Weird, it was supposed to be sunny later today.
“I’m sorry. Again, I’m really sorry”, Jungkook whispers.
“You already said that”, you retort coldly.
“I don’t really know what else to say”, he confesses.
“That’s the problem here. We’ve already said everything that we had wanted to say. It’s just a broken record repeating itself over and over again. You are apologizing, I am blaming you. You are apologizing again, I am getting mad. You apologize again and I close up. We already had this conversation before.”
“So why did you call me over today? If there is nothing I can tell you that would change your mind?”
“Maybe I thought that you could. Maybe I even hoped for it.”
“Could I change your mind if I told you that I really wanna try again? And that I miss you like crazy?”
“You said that already too.”
“I did?” he looks out the window as well, “fuck, there actually isn’t anything we haven’t said yet.”
You hum a yes as an answer, nodding your head slowly. Even more rain pours down from the dark skies, forming clashing rivers of dirty water on the parking lot. The leaves, Jimin had swept into a tiny pile last night, get carried away with the water, taking on a journey to a place they won’t return from. How much you hate weather like this. Normally you don’t, but today you hate it with a passion.
“This hurts”, he chokes out.
“Yeah, I know.”
That’s it then. The end of your relationship. You said so yourself, the two of you are a broken record at this point. Maybe this is your chance to turn the record player off and throw the broken record away. Even if in doing so you are ripping your heart wide open again, after trying so hard to make it whole again. Your eyes land on his lips. Yes, you really don’t want to throw that record away.
Jungkook shifts on the bench, combing his fingers through his hair. He clears his throat to collect his thoughts. He should man up, he is here to fix your relationship not ruin it even more by being all sad again. He came here to give your relationship a second chance and he wants to proof it to you. Get yourself together Jeon Jungkook, he thinks to himself, hitting his own knee under the table.
“I have something else to show you”, he finally says.
“What?” you say coldly.
He reaches into the pocket of his jacket and pulls a piece of paper free.
“Here”, he says, pushing it over the table to you.
You stare at it with furrowed brows.
“What’s that?” you ask suspiciously, reaching out to touch it with the tips of your fingers.
“Open it.”
You open it with shaky fingers, gasping once you did. A drawing. Three seagulls fly over a ferries wheel, the ocean dances in swirls in the front and behind the ferries wheel the sun sets on the horizon.
“I lost my first draft, I don’t know where it went, but I tried to recreate it from my memory. It’s your tattoo, if you still want to get it.”
You can feel it, the first fibers of the thread between your hearts reconnecting again. It almost knocks the air out of your lungs as your emotions crumble down on you. You sob, pressing the paper against your chest as you let your head fall forward. So he didn’t throw it away, he just lost it. He never stopped thinking about it.
“Hey, oh my god ___”, he gasps, “don’t cry please”, Jungkook whispers, reaching over the table to hold your hand. You haven’t noticed it yet, but your fingers magically intertwined with Jungkook’s. He hadn’t noticed it yet either, he just knows that his hand had never felt safer before.
“You-“, you look up at him. Jungkook watches you with worried eyes as you suddenly start rummaging around in the inner pocket of your jacket. You pull out a piece of paper with shaky fingers, throwing it onto the table before you have to sob again.
“What’s that?” Jungkook asks, already reaching for it. He opens it, eyes instantly filling with tears as he stares at you.
“They handed it to me at the hotel, I thought you threw it away”, you hiccup.
“I-I thought I lost it”, his lips start trembling, “you kept it all those months?”
“Yeah, alongside this”, you say, pulling out the polaroid of his smiling face.
Jungkook officially breaks when his eyes land on it, head falling to the table he cries like there is no tomorrow, sobbing so loudly it almost sounds as if he was in pain. If one asked Jungkook he would tell them that he was in fact in pain. It feels as if two merciless creatures are working on his heart at the same time. One is ripping it to shreds whilst the other tries his hardest to stick everything together again with hot glue.
You get up from your seat to sit down next to him, arm draped around him and fingers caressing his arm. He is shaking so much.
“Fucking shit ___ I didn’t think you’d do something like that”, he sobs.
“Of course I would. You were my first ever real love”, you whisper, resting your cheek on his upper back as you cry, “you were an ass in the way you left, but you think I can so easily forget the connection we had?”
Jungkook raises his head, your eyes meet, “I really thought you did. You made it look like you did.”
You lower your head, “I tried to”, you sob, “I couldn’t”, you confess.
“___ please look at me”, Jungkook says and so you do, “I can’t leave you.”
He reaches for you, cupping your face as he leans closer. He is going to kiss you, you know he is and every fiber in your body is screaming at you to do it. Your fingers are already twisting in his jacket, your eyes are already fluttering closed.
“I slept with Hoseok!” you blurt out before he can however.
Jungkook freezes, keeping your face between his hands as his eyes flit up to yours.
“What?”
“I slept with him, more than once.”
Jungkook’s hands fall from your face, he leans back, eyes big and glassy.
“Why are you telling me this?”
“Because I wanna be honest with you. I thought you’d never come back again so I started to distract myself”, you lower your eyes, “with Hoseok.”
“Oh, okay, uhm”, Jungkook laughs breathlessly, combing his hair out of his face, “okay…uhm.”
“I know this just totally ruined the mood, but I just really wanna be honest with you, about everything”, you say, not daring to look into his eyes.
“Are you in love with him?”
“What? Of course not. It’s Hoseok he just-“, you lower your head, “-kinda made me feel happy when I felt like dying”, you confess quietly.
Jungkook scoffing makes you raise your head. He definitely looks jealous, he couldn’t hide it even if he tried to. His dark eyes race between yours, his tongue outlining the inside of his cheek.
Jungkook studies your face, trying his hardest not to imagine how you looked like when Hoseok had sex with you. Did you have your eyes closed and lips parted just like you always did when he made love to you? Were your cheeks glowing? Were strands of your hair sticking to your sweaty forehead just like they did when he was a little rougher with you? Were you moaning Hoseok’s name in the same voice you moaned his name? How often did you reach your high with Hoseok? More times than you did with him? Did Hoseok hold you with the same tenderness and love, he always held you once everything was finished? Did you nuzzle your nose into Hoseok’s neck as you giggled like you always did with him? Did you tell Hoseok that you were happy with him in that same sweet voice you always used with him? There he goes, imagining it and hurting himself in the process.
“Kookie are you angry at me now?” you ask, shifting on the bench awkwardly.
“I don’t know”, he murmurs, letting his face fall into his palms.
“I’m sensing a but.”
“But did it really have to be Hoseok?” he looks at you in distaste, “the guy you had a thing with four years ago? You got over me by sleeping with your ex? What kinda logic is that?”
“He’s not my ex. We never were a couple. This is literally just sex.”
“Yeah?” Jungkook chuckles in disbelief, “as if sex ever was only sex with you. You can’t just say that.”
"No Kook you don’t get it. It was just sex, just two bros fucking. Hoseok may have feelings for me, but I don’t", you insist, cringing the moment you realise what you had just said. You face palm yourself, groaning loudly.
"Hoseok has feelings for you?" Jungkook gasps, eyes as big as two saucers. 
"I, I mean I don’t know for sure, it's just a hunch", you stutter, scratching your neck nervously as you look everywhere but his face. 
"Jesus fucking christ. Well fuck", he clicks his tongue, turning away slightly, "shit ___."
“Are you actually mad right now?” you blink at him in confusion.
“I don’t know, maybe a little”, he combs his hair out of his face, “you can’t just sleep with Hoseok like it’s nothing, especially when you know that he has feelings for you. That’s so mean.”
“Okay, nuh-uh what we’re not gonna do here is you telling me what I can or can’t do”, you tell him with a raised finger.
Jungkook sends you an icy glare, muscles in his arms flexing as he makes himself bigger.
“I realised that when you told me that I'm not part of your life anymore. Thank you for reminding me though. I almost forgot”, he spits sarcastically, challenging you with a cock of his right eyebrow.
Your eyes aren’t breaking away from him, shock had frozen you in time. You are so stupid. Why did you mention Hoseok right now? You just wanted to be honest and now Jungkook is mad at you. You are such an idiot.
“I’m sorry”, you say to which Jungkook nods and sighs loudly.
“I know, but-“, he takes a deep breath, hurt washing over his face, “-I think you get why I kinda wanna leave now.”
“What? B-but you, you told me that you can’t leave me. Jungkook…” you gasp.
“I just-“, he lowers his head, “what else should I do?” he laughs in desperation, combing through his hair nervously, “you clearly don’t want me back, you’re happy with Hoseok. How dickish would I be if I ruined that again? But staying here would only hurt me, sorry but I gotta be selfish here for the sake of my own heart.”
“Kook I-“, your voice cracks, your heart feels heavy, “-Kookie it was just sex, nothing more and I…I don’t wanna lose you.”
“What? What’s that supposed to mean?”
“I don’t know, I just know that-“, you reach for the drawing of the tattoo, brushing your fingers over it softly, “-fuck, never seeing you again would destroy me.”
Jungkook blinks quickly, furrowing his brows in confusion.
“So you do want me back?”
“I don’t know, maybe”, you whisper.
Jungkook scoffs and shakes his head, “maybe’s not enough. I just-“, his sad, glassy eyes meet yours, “-I think I have to take some time for myself, digest all this new information. First you wanna talk to me, then you tell me that you are fucking Hoseok, then you tell me that you want me back and that you don’t want me to leave to go north but at the same time you tell me that I'm not part of your life anymore. So I’m a little overwhelmed right now.”
"Jungkook I-", you start only to get silenced by him. 
"Can I please finish?" 
"Sure, sorry. Go ahead."
"I don't wanna start this off by being your jealous boyfriend. Seriously it's not quirky and I fucking hate this trait of mine. The jealousy I mean, I hate it. And I don’t wanna feel such emotions with you anymore. So please just-", he sighs, shifting his gaze to the table, "-let me leave for a little. So I can work through those feelings without having to involve you." 
This is Jeon Jungkook? All those times he exploded in jealousy are still so clearly ingrained in your mind that it feels like yesterday. All those screaming matches, all those mean words, all those desperate fucks. You can recount all of them clearly. And yet here he is, rather wanting to have some time to himself than explode in your face. Fucking hell wow. That is all that you can think right now. 
“Of course, I get you”, you finally say, nodding your head. You take a deep breath, looking at his lips for the briefest of moments, “you’re not gonna take three months again though, are you?”
“No”, he chuckles, sending you the shiest of smiles, “give me a week. Okay? I’ll get through my first ever work week and then I’ll come back”, he reaches out to hold your hand, “we will talk about this once I was able to sort through my thoughts. I promise you we will talk.”
“Yeah okay”, you say, feeling the first indicator of a heavy lump in your throat.
“Okay”, Jungkook confirms, giving your hand one last squeeze before he gets to his feet, “I think I’ll be off then. The weather’s being a bitch and I don’t wanna run late, I still have to find a motel to crash at.”
You look at him with big eyes.
“You wanna drive in this rain?” you gasp.
“Not really, but-“, he shrugs his shoulders and closes his leather jacket, “I don’t really have another choice. Could you maybe let me out?”
“And your waffles or pancakes? Wait, did you order waffles or pancakes?” you ask, scooting out of the bench.
“Pancakes. Jimin wasn’t planning on bringing them to me anyways. He’s been watching us for the past fifteen minutes, thinking I couldn’t see him hiding behind the door.”
You look over your shoulder, seeing the kitchen door close quickly.
“Oh.”
You snort, shaking your head in disbelief.
“He is such an idiot”, you look up at Jungkook, “yesterday he almost busted a vein when I told him you’d come over to talk.”
“Sounds like him”, Jungkook can’t help but chuckle, “You know by the way if he and Yoongi are a thing again?”
“Yeah, just before you came over they made out at this table over there.”
“I knew it”, he mumbles.
Jungkook looks down at you, fingers itching with the urge to ruffle your hair like he always loved doing. But he can’t, first he has to sort through his thoughts.
“Okay”, he looks away after deciding against it, “I’ll go now.”
“Do you really have to? At least stay until the rain stops”, you say as you stumble closer to him, “I don’t want you to get into an accident because of the bad weather.”
“Imma be fine”, he dismisses you with a snap of his wrist.
“At least let me call Hoseok to get you a car. I would feel like an ass if I let you drive in the rain with a bike.”
“Yeah not that great of an idea”, he says, jaw clenching again as jealousy courses through his veins.
“I apologize. Then at least let me ask Seokjin if he can borrow you his car”, you insist.
“That’s not necessary really, besides I don’t even know how to drive a car”, he says, fighting against the urge to smile at you. So you do still care about him, even if you would probably deny it if he called you out on it.
“What if you catch a cold? Come on, it’s freezing and wet outside, you’ll definitely catch a cold”, you try some more, taking the tiniest step closer to him. You have no control over your body, it is as if he is drawing you closer just by standing there and looking at you with those big, brown eyes of his’.
“Don’t worry, I’ll manage”, he assures, “I don’t really get sick.”
“That’s a lie”, you nudge his stomach, “remember that one time you were dying in bed with the stomach flu?”
“That was because I ate bad food. I was never sick before. A Jeon Jungkook doesn’t get sick”, he insists with a cheeky grin on his face.
“Sure, tell yourself that”, you mumble, cocking an eyebrow at him.
Jungkook chuckles quietly, lowering his head in bashfulness.
“Okay then”, he says.
“You really don’t wanna wait at least until the storm stops?”
“Nah, I’m fine, really.”
“Uhm, okay then.”
“Okay then.”
You look at each other one last time. Jungkook reaches out for you, caressing your cheek with the back of his hand so gently you barely feel it.
“Goodbye sweetie”, he says softly.
“Goodbye sounds so final.”
Jungkook smiles, it almost looks sad if one asked you.
“One week, I promise you.”
“Pinky promise?”
Jungkook shakes his head and steps closer to press a tender kiss to your forehead instead.
“This will have to do”, he whispers against your skin and then he steps back.
Just once more your eyes meet and then he turns around to leave and you are left staring at him with your heart racing and the place he had kissed tingling like crazy.
