#feeling very foolish today#why did I so immediately make so many concessions to you rather than just speak my actual thoughts?#why didn’t I try harder to clarify so that there were no miscommunication issues?#why did I let you just snap at me and rollover so quickly with a dozen apologies?#I don’t even really think I was in the wrong for having asked my initial question that started the bullshit#but I let your anger cloud me and let myself believe I was wrong just because you were angry#I guess I’m just so much more afraid of losing you than I am of hurting myself#but idk I’m really fucking angry myself right now#and mostly I’m angry at my own dumb self because I didn’t communicate well or clarify and yeah truly that’s on me#but there’s so much more I want to say to you and I want to yell back at you#tell you all the ways you’ve hurt me and how you pushed me to this point#but what would it matter now#doing so would only cause another fight and then I’d probably lose you for real#and I don’t want to go through that kind of pain#I’ll do damn near anything to keep a friend even if they’re not good for me and you’re clearly no exception to that#so I’ll just let it go I guess#try not to let it fester in my mind and in my chest every time I see your name/icon here#try to just be normal and a good friend and let everything be alright#you just want a friend and I can do that#I’ll even give you space and pull my personality back to make sure you’re comfortable#and everything will be fine in the end won’t it#personal

protective ex-husband!simon, implied violence/break-in
“i know! and that’s when i told her-“ you paused, your hand halfway to the keys at the bottom of your purse. your apartment door was open, a menacing sliver of darkness awaiting you. “hey, i’m going to have to call you back.” you ended the call with your friend, slowly backing away from your door. shit. you knew you locked the door when you left for work, and no one else had a copy of your key. a creeping sensation came over you, like someone was watching from within. slowly, you retreated, taking the elevator down to your apartment’s lobby as the anxiety crawled through your body. you wracked your brain, wondering if you should call the police. wondering if they would even believe you. there was only one call to make.
“come on, pick up.” you tapped your foot impatiently as your ex husband took forever to answer the phone. it was all you could do to not think about your home being violated, about a potential stalker or date gone wrong.
“‘ello?”
“si- simon, it’s me.”
“i know, lovie. that’s why i picked up.” you let out a quiet sob of relief at his voice, the bottle on your emotions starting to leak.
“what’s wrong?” his voice changed, immediately hearing your silent tears. he could always read you too well. “i don’t want to bother you but” you hiccupped. shit. “but my apartment door was open and i’m pretty sure i closed it, i usually do. i don’t know if im being silly but now im in the lobby and im just scared, simon.” there was a fumbling sound, the echoes of simon zipping up his jacket and pulling on his shoes.
“go to that cafe across the street, dove. go get yourself one of those overpriced hot chocolates. i’ll be there in 15.”
9 minutes later, your shaking hands were tapping random patterns on the cafe table, unable to raise your drink to your mouth without spilling it. your eyes were locked onto the wood grain, counting lines to distract yourself.
suddenly, a gloved hand covered yours. you looked up and there he was, your ghost in all his glory. you forgot everything for a second, forgot the past arguments and the strained silences, and flung yourself into his arms. you breathed in his comforting scent of pinewood that masked his cigarettes, a cologne you got him four years ago for christmas. your face was wet, and as he pulled you back to check you for injuries, his thumb brushed a stray tear away from your face. you didn’t even realize you were crying.
“‘s okay, baby. i’m here now. give me your keys.” you fumbled for your keys, purse strap sliding off your shoulder as your hands shook too much to keep it balanced. simon caught it gracefully, finding your keys in the same pocket you always kept them. “stay here. i’ll be back.” you nodded instinctively. only when you saw his figure retreat to your apartment building, clothed in all black like a figure of death, you realized you hadn’t told him your new apartment number.
twenty minutes passed. simon’s presence had worked like medicine as your heart rate has now dropped back down to normal, your hands stable enough to finish your drink. any other person would be worried for simon’s safety, but you knew the only person you should be concerned for was your intruder.
“you’re stayin’ with me tonight.” he was back, looking exactly the same. he wasn’t even winded. “thank you simon, but don’t be ridiculous. i can get a hotel. you live so far from my work anyways.” he approached you, crowding into your space as he leaned over you, even with a cafe table in between. “consider it payment then.” he tilted your chin up with his left hand as he hid his other one, covered with blood, in his pocket. “one way or another, you’re in my bed tonight, dove.” you gulped at that. “and i’ve got riley in the car. you wouldn’t abandon him, would you?” of course he had gotten your cat when he checked out your apartment. riley hated men, but never simon. cheeky bastard.
“you win.”
fast forward a couple of hours and you were getting ready for bed at simon’s, belly full from the meal he had made you. riley made himself at home on the living room couch, of course. “he’s in my spot.” you gestured to your cat on the couch. “wha’ d’ya mean?” your husband simon was now in sweats and sweats only, clean from the shower he had after you both got home back to his place. you pretended not to see him methodically wash blood out of his fingernails, reasoning quite easily with yourself that it was for a good cause.
“my couch for tonight.” simon moved toward you and you avoided his eyes, trying not to stare at how beautiful he still was. muscular but thick, torso adorned with scars you used to trace on sunday mornings when you both stayed in bed until the afternoon. he gripped your chin, forcing you to make eye contact. “told’ya you were in my bed tonight, dovie.” you swallowed and he watched your throat move, memories of you swallowing something else countless times rising to the surface.
“don’t be silly, simon. that would cross a line.”
“what line?” his arms were crossed now, drawing your attention to an unfamiliar tattoo right above his heart. a small dove.
“we’re not together anymore, simon.”
“you’re still my wife.”
silence. he was always like this, pushing you until you broke. he was unwilling to compromise, even on the smallest of issues. usually you’d fight him, spit fire until you lost your voice. tonight though, you were reminded of how he was the only person you were able to call, the only one committing dark sins without asking, all for your safety. instead, you threw your hands up and walked into his bedroom, mechanically stripping as you put on one of his shirts and a pair of boxers. you felt his eyes on you, burning a hole through the fabric. you were tired, so tired of this push and pull.
“what.” you whipped around, all venom. his eyes were impossibly soft, holding yours with a peaceful caress. “you’re as beautiful as the day i lost you.” your fire went out at that. “you’re just trying to get me naked.” you mumbled, looking down as you fidgeted with the hem of his shirt. you watched as his body came into view, pressing your forehead against his bare skin.
“could see you in a thousand layers and you’d still be the most beautiful person i’ve ever seen, dove.” ever so slowly, your hands crept up his body to grab his shoulders and neck. he picked you up with ease, turning the lights off and tucking you both in bed. “when did you get the tattoo?” you asked in the dark.
“3 months and 12 days ago.” what would have been your 3rd year of marriage, your anniversary. you lowered your head and gave him a kiss right where the tattoo was. “can we talk about it in the morning?” you snuggled into him, that familiar scent calming you once again. “always, dove.” he kissed your forehead, smiling in the dark.
----
idk why im obsessed with the break-in and simon to the rescue trope but its fueling me lately

Only In Tears and Dreams
Tumblr media
Pairing: (Main) Scaramouche x Reader, Wanderer x Reader
Summary: [Angst] The soon to be god meets you in his future, a beautiful love it is. But, it makes him realize, the only way you’ll ever love him, is the version of himself where he’s completely erased. You’ll only be his if he is not himself.
Warnings: Unrequited Love (Reader to Scara), Comfort in Wanderer x Reader portions
Tumblr media
The gods must have taken it upon themself to oversee his suffering, cause why is it, the space of solitude he so carefully hoped to salvage from reality, has been tainted with images of what he always believed to be his demise.
You.
The landscape is softly blurred, save for your very clear form. You’re breathtaking. God, he hates you. You’re the sole being capable of making the empty cavity in his chest beat with something that was never there in the first place. You’re the only human in this world he’d even remotely allow insults directed towards him to come from. You’re the only person he can stay in close vicinity with for extended periods of time without throwing lightning to the skies.
You’re you. But… the you in his dreams is different.
There’s no hate in your eyes, it’s you, no doubt, but a version he’s secretly wanted to see himself.
A you who is, undoubtedly, in love with him. No… those eyes that are filled with such a disgusting emotion, are looking at the him with blue and teal wrapped all around him. Not purple and red, not The Balladeer.
It’s then he remembers, you will only ever love him, if he was not himself.
“What’s wrong? You seem off today…” you’re up close, he can see you, he can hear you, but that’s the only two senses he possesses to behold you and your glory. He can’t bury his nose in your neck, he can’t hold your waist in his palm, he can’t taste whatever flavor you have on your lips.
A cruel reminder that the version he holds of you in his heart is only a dream.
“Hm… silent today huh, don’t be so moody, you have one of your political scientifa-magig things going on don’t you? I’ll be sailing back to Fontaine soon so you better enjoy me while I’m here.” You look annoyed, an expression he’s grown accustomed to, but this one is softer than what you give him.
A voice speaks back, sounding too similar. His voice, is heard, but it’s not coming from his lips, it’s from the other him.
“Hm? I had no idea I was holding an overgrown child in my arms, how can someone at your age not be able to pronounce “political science” normally?”
Holding?
Seems the harbinger was too focused on you to notice that, yes, you are held in his arms, you’ve been sat on his lap looking into his eyes this whole time.
“How can someone at your age not be able to grow huh? I must say for someone in science you’re a bit below average h— mhm…! Mm!” The image of a hand pops up, the palm tightly covering your mouth as you fight a struggle to regain speech.
“Someone seems to be forgetting whose bed it is they’re staying in for the next two weeks.”
“Mm!! Mmm… mhm…? MHMM…?!” It’s a scene that would be witnessed in a cheesy rom-com film from Fontaine. If he was in reality witnessing this with any other couple, he’s sure he would turn his head and pretend he hadn’t seen such a disgusting display of affection.
But it’s a little endearing when it’s the two of you.
“Mhm—! Haaa… Okay okay! Sorry Mr “Hat guy”… Jeez, considering you almost suffocated me to death maybe I shouldn’t sleep with you— Ah…!” He watches internally as the blurred vision moves, your arms wrapping around his neck. “Are you gonna throw me in the water…? It’s cause I put sugar in your tea isn’t it…”
“So that was you.” Panic momentarily sets in your eyes with your accidental confession, you grasp around his neck tightening, or at least he thinks you tighten it, his arms slowly leaning you towards the river before quickly pulling you back into his body.
He laughs but you don’t, only chastising him for his attempt at scaring you. “You…! Luckily you met me after I quit the fatui, who knows with your attitude I might have fought you with a delusion.”
“Oh really?” He doesn’t sound amused, albeit, it seems this “Scaramouche” was part of the fatui or at least, played some part in it, as his playful demeanor is quickly dissipated at the mention of that organization.
It’s then when the dream starts to go cloudy, the sight of you slowly rippling away. His hand, not his dream self’s, but his own, almost reaches up to caress your face before you disappear, but his body locks him in place before he can move in time to catch you.
He should be happy. He doesn’t have to see a you he can only despise and wish for in his feelings. He has to remember, that horrid feeling you make him know, is just that, horrid.
Now that he’s seen what he’s secretly wanted. He knows just how detrimental it would be to have that with you. A weakness for him, one that if even minorly damaged, could lead to catastrophic destruction to his psyche.
He’ll claw that feeling out of his body if he has to. Feeling your love was warming, he can’t have that. So, his hand leans towards his chest, his nails pointed directly at the place a heart would be, before punching through.
But yet again he remembers, it was just a dream.
He’s harshly awoken by the sound of footsteps clanking on metal, his body suspended in air. He can feel the nimble fingers of someone connecting the tubes to the holes in his back. But he doesn’t bother to make contact with them. He’s sure, it’s Dottore. That is until, he’s not so sure
His synthetic puppet torso shakes a little as the first tube is connected, a hand placed on his chest to stop him from shaking. A hand, that’s all too familiar.
When the mysterious helper emerges from below, his eyes can’t seem to stop themself from looking.
“You.”
“Yes, me. Who else would you have trusted with impaling you, my Lord?”
“Ha? Anyone but you, at least if they killed me through an accidental misplacement they would find assistance or cower at their lord's body.” He just woke up, that dream has not yet disappeared from his collective consciousness. “You would do it on purpose and then watch me fall without any form of continuing the job.”
“If you talk anymore you might put that scenario into action, Sir, though, if it did come true I can’t deny I wouldn’t do what you just stated.” He doesn’t talk back, only a tut leaving his lips before you dive down to insert the next mechanical implement in.
Though, he does wonder.
“[Name], where do you live?”
“Oh? Are you suddenly interested in my personal life? I don’t think it’s a good look for a god to be hooking up with a mortal.”
“I’m not asking for something that foolish. Answer.”
“I live in Fontaine— Lived, I mean.” He can tell you didn’t like his sudden change in demeanor, as he quickly can feel you connect his wiring slower, but also a lot more forcefully, dare he say even painfully. Though he doesn’t cause he’s not so weak as to admit that as hurt. He’s a puppet— no, a god, this doesn’t hurt.
The cold glare you give him stings a little though. Just a little. But he won’t admit that either.
“Hm.”
“You ask but don’t say anything? I shouldn’t have even replied to your stuck-up—“
“Why did you join the fatui?” … You seem to lack a comeback. “And you say I’m the one who doesn’t speak back.”
“I’m almost done. You’ll be on the way to becoming a god soon enough my Lord, once I’m finished will you please allow me to take my leave and—“ his hand is only seen in a flash, his finger already gripping onto your wrist tight enough he might as well be acting as a handcuff.
“No, stay with me.”
“If I don’t go back to Sir Dottore, he’ll get mad.” His eyes narrow at the mention of the name before returning to their original form.
“To hell with that doctor, you’d defy a future god?”
“Future, My lord. Besides, would a god need a mortal by his side?” Your words are sharp, they seem to have cut him deep as his grasp on your wrist loosens before eventually falling back to his sides, his head turning to let out the second scoff of the night.
“No, not at all.”
“Then… I’ll be going. Goodbye sir, good luck on your endeavors of godhood.” You don’t look back at him. For a moment, his soul flinches at the familiar sight. All too similar to the woman who started it all, his mother.
He doesn’t call out to you, only watching the sight of that wretched doctor grabbing hold of your shoulder and leading you out the door. He thinks to himself, the moment he’s ascended, maybe he’ll become great enough to see reverence in your eyes.
Or maybe, something that isn’t reverence, or praise? No… a feeling he’ll forever refuse to hold. For now, he’ll convince himself that all he wants is your submission, not anything more. However, that nagging feeling he wields will always remind him in the back of his head what he really wants from you.
He remembers that dream.
It was warm, something he didn’t think his synthetic body was capable of feeling, yet here he was, resting his head in the warmth of you. His eyes were entirely focused on the look of your face as your fingers combed through his hair.
He couldn’t feel it at all, but somehow, it felt as if your touch transcended his body and reached his soul in the dream. His eyes water before his hand quickly wipes them away without even letting the tears fall.
But he won’t ever feel that. Perhaps, it’s for the best. A god must be above mortals, so he will not grow attached to those who must be beneath him. He will throw you away just like he did to the rest of those sorry humans in his life. He will forget you just like he forgot them.
You will be nothing but a character meant to build his higher being self to greatness. He will feel nothing but godhood in his veins.
Love is only an obstacle meant for distraction.
Tumblr media
After he had regained the memories of his past sins, he no longer has a name to call his own, only having the name the traveler bestowed upon him.
His feet walk across the pavement of Sumeru, running errands for the small god of Sumeru. Particularly, it seemed many citizens that day must’ve all collectively agreed to bombard him with annoyances, as they all looked at him too many times and spoke too loudly when he was near. But, they didn’t, he’s just in a bad mood.
From the corner of his eye, he spots the familiar uniforms of the fatui, a woman and a man exchanging whispers while searching the area.
“Where’s [Name]? Surely they know the doctor is asking for them.”
“I don’t know! The last time they were seen—“
The name strikes a chord in him, but he continues walking. He no longer plays any part in that wretched organization, so he won’t pay any more mind to it.
He will keep walking until he can’t anymore—
A quick hand on his arm pulls him to the side, a familiar hue in their eyes alerting him as to who this runaway is. Even with their face covered in shadow from the hood, that voice was all he needed to confirm.
“I’m so sorry sir, but do you have any idea what the quickest way to get to Fontaine would be from here?”
Tumblr media
I didn’t make it exactly clear because I didn’t think it was too important for the plot, but in this Reader is an assistant working directly under Dottore a bit against their will but thats okay (no it’s not). Also for the dream bit, I may not have made it clearly, but essentially, Scara is looking through the eyes of wanderer, along with that, he has no idea this is his future, he’s under the impression that his mind is playing tricks on him and showing a “what could’ve been.”

★ LATE NIGHT CONVERSATIONS. . .
summary: in which zoro convinces you to see yourself from his point of view.
warnings: named fem!reader/oc, reader has suicidal thoughts (not too explicit, yet not very subtle), cursing, zoro may be ooc, angst/comfort
word count: 2K+ // slightly edited
an (1): this fic started when i got drunk and wanted to read angst. i revised it so many times and i’m still somewhat unsatisfied (hence the rushed ending) but i really love this oc i created and hope i get to write about her more :3 been feeling a lil sad bc i turned 21 and i’m still somewhat stuck in my life and uuuugh. just need zoro so bad..anyway…I’ll probably do an oc introduction next :p
Tumblr media
ZORO thinks you’re the prettiest person in existence. He wishes he could give you his eyes so you could see yourself from his point of view. He watches you as you sit next to Robin: a blanket wrapped around your body, your head leaning on her shoulder as you listen to the conversation she’s having with Franky.
Tonight, something’s different. You don’t have the usual gleam in your eye nor does your laugh echo throughout the Sunny. Instead, your eyes are red and swollen, and you’re quieter than usual — only speaking when you’re spoken to. Your eyes meet Zoro’s for a split second, and understanding flashes in his gaze as he realizes why you’ve been so distant.
You ignore the swordsman’s curious eye, trying to be more interested in the conversation Robin and Franky are having; something about poneglyphs, but you wouldn’t be too sure because your thoughts are louder than their voices, making it hard to focus.
Tonight, everything hits you at once: your past, the present, and the what-ifs. The future remains a distant concept, with its many possible outcomes holding you back.
You think these thoughts that cloud your brain are nothing but selfish. A burning desire of yours is to quietly slip away and let your soul be free from this body and place.
You love the Straw Hats, your captain, and your crewmates. You love the sea and exploring new islands. With every stop, you hope to learn something new to distract yourself from the small part of you that wishes you weren't alive.
But every now and then, it hits you. And you feel like you’re nothing but a waste of space.
Before you realize it, Zoro’s standing next to you, offering his hand. You know the blend of sympathy, disappointment, and sadness on his face. With a deep breath and a small smile to the rest of the crew, you accept it, allowing him to pull your body up and lead you down the corridor.
+x+
Roronoa Zoro, pirate hunter turned pirate, was someone you held close to your heart. He was your closest friend, your anchor in times of darkness, and your lover.
He took care of you, even in your absence; he told you that you look out for everyone else that you tend to forget to take care of yourself.
When the crew split up and you had decided to go to Whole Cake Island, Zoro made sure Franky had sent you off with two transponder snails so he could check in on you. He’s still unsure of what happened on the island of sweets, but after your reunion with the rest of the crew he’s noticed the light in your eye had become darker.
He leads you to his room, opening the door for you and placing his swords by the entrance. You take a seat on his bed, a change from your usual behavior of lying down. Your thoughts crowd your mind again as the atmosphere around you grows quieter.
You’re not doing enough. Luffy doesn’t need you, nor do the others; you believe you’re just extra weight they carry because you’re his sister.
“Wanna tell me what’s going on in that pretty head of yours?” You feel the mattress dip as Zoro occupies the space next to you, his body radiating warmth your way. He’s laying down, arms rested behind his head, eyes closed. You stare at the man next to you, taking in his form; despite the number of times he’s smiled in the face of death, scars and stitches scattering his body, you still think he’s the most handsome man on this earth.
“Just been…thinking,” you start. “About everything that’s happened up until now.”
Zoro hums to let you know that he’s listening, a cue for you to continue.
“Nobody on the crew knows this, not even Luffy, but I was there at Marineford.”
This makes Zoro’s eye shoot open, a look of surprise painting his face. As bad as it sounds, he isn’t too interested in learning about where the crew spent the last two years, he’s just glad they all made it back together alive. He knows that you spent time mastering your Haki with your childhood teacher, but that’s all you’ve let the crew know about.
“Grandpa snuck me in disguised as a marine — I promised I wouldn’t tell anyone if I was able to leave quietly. I wanted to see Ace one last time, and he granted me that because he owed me one for keeping an eye on Luffy when we were younger.
I was able to visit his holding cell, and the sight of him…it felt as if I was being punished. Ace was the one person who understood me and how I tend to feel, the one person I shared so much in common with. He was able to find bits and pieces of himself again thanks to the light that shines through Luffy, and when he left us I promised that I’d try and keep him safe despite the distance between us, and hopefully find myself through our crybaby brother as well.”
You’re smiling fondly at the distant memories of you and your brothers, ones that you wished were photographed so you could have physical proof of those events taking place; so even when you’re old and senile you’ll be able to remember them happening.
“Tell me more,” Zoro says. He eyes the spot next to him, and you position yourself to lay there. He allows you to remove his left arm from behind his head to use as a pillow. “Were you safe, at least?”
Of course not. You were infiltrating the World Government, and if you made a tiny mistake, you would’ve been right next to Ace on the execution platform.
“I was — you know I wouldn’t do anything impulsively, unlike some people.” You giggle, remembering the moment Luffy fell from the sky, in the middle of the battlefield. “I ended up being able to sneak away because of him. I found Trafalgar’s submarine and hopped on board and waited…and I can’t help but think that was my biggest mistake, leaving Luffy alone. It’s a heavy guilt that I’ve been carrying.”
Zoro ponders for a moment; it isn’t your weight to carry, he wants to say. Luffy went to Marineford on his own accord, and not every ending is a happy one. He’s also curious about how you were able to find the surgeon and his crew, but that’s something he’ll ask about another time.
“And when I felt Shanks’ presence nearby, I asked Law to take me to his ship — which he declined, of course — so I got off and swam there instead. The waters were surprisingly calm, so don’t panic, I’m sure Jinbe wouldn’t have let me get eaten up,” you confess to him, reassuring him that you were safe every step of the way.
You stare at the left side of his face, your arms wrapped around his body as if he was a teddy bear. The blanket you had previously wrapped around your body now covered parts of his, his arm cuddling you close as if you’d ever slip away.
“How’d it go with the redhead?” Zoro asks. His eyes are still closed but you know he’s interested in knowing; asking questions is somewhat his way of begging to know more. He isn’t as stoic as he thinks he is, at least not towards you.
“It was good seeing Shanks again. He was heading to Marineford to end the war, and allowed me to stay and hide with him until Luffy made the decision to reunite in two years. He’s actually the one who took me to my childhood teacher; it took about three weeks after burying Ace and Whitebeard to get there.”
Zoro’s curious about how you handled Ace’s burial, but again, that’s something he’ll ask about another time.
“They asked about us. It was different being the one to share experiences about life on the sea; but it was refreshing and fun…I told them all about the crazy stuff we went through, and they let me know about the reputation we’ve built for ourselves. It’s actually kind of cool how many people know of us, but also scary at the same time. It really opened my eyes though; it was probably the first time in a long time that I…” you trail off, repositioning your head to be more comfortable, the hand that lay on Zoro’s chest now tracing lines as you daze off. Sensing that he’s lost you, he opens his eye and nudges you lightly.
“I felt like I had a life purpose again. Gaining the knowledge that a lot of people had their eyes set on us as a team, it made me realize the responsibility I hold. The promises I made to both Ace and Sabo, the ones I made to you and the rest of us, and the promise I made to myself as a child — my ultimate dream: to live a long, fulfilled life.”
“Even though I felt great and motivated after that and even now, the thoughts still linger around. The what-ifs: what if I stayed and attempted to save Ace alongside Luffy? What if I got caught by the Marines? What if the five of you never found me in Loguetown?
It’s a never-ending battle, and I’m getting more tired of myself with every passing day. It’s the reason why even now I exhaust myself mentally and physically, just to escape my thoughts. I guess there must be something happening with the planets for me to experience these feelings right now,” your tone is light, almost playful, yet your words place a heavy weight on him.
You let out a sharp sigh, suddenly turning on your back and staring at the wooden ceiling. You release your Haki to see what the rest of the crew is up to, noticing that some of them have already gone to bed. The only other people awake at the moment are Luffy, Sanji, and Jinbe — sharing a late night snack and a hushed conversation.
“You’re stronger and more resilient than you think,” Zoro states. “As a matter of fact, you’re probably the strongest person I know, both physically and mentally.
You’ve faced nothing but obstacles your entire life, and it makes me wish I had known you when we were younger. You and Kuina would’ve been great friends.” The mention of your lover’s childhood friend makes you smile. He’s only ever confided in you about his upbringing, and you pray to the heavens, hoping that Kuina herself hears you ask for his protection. “I admire you so much.”
And it’s true: Zoro envies how strong you are. He wishes he had unlocked Haki at a young age. He wishes he was as smart as you. There are so many things Zoro admires about you, and he wishes he knew the words to voice it.
“I’m not great with words.” You giggle at his self-awareness but let the laughter die down as he rolls his eye playfully. “But you deserve to be here — alive — regardless of where you came from, what powers and knowledge you possess, and what happened when you were a child. I’ve watched you grow into the person you are today, and it’s been a privilege.
Sometimes, it feels as if I was a saint in my past life to experience this: the open ocean, the different people and places, and you. However you see yourself isn’t how anyone else views you. Chopper looks up to you as a guardian — and despite the small age difference, I’m sure our knucklehead captain does too. Nami, Robin, Usopp, and Franky see you as their sister. I’m sure I heard Jinbe speaking of you like a daughter, and as for the annoying waiter we call a cook, he practically worships the ground you walk on. The skeleton praised you constantly, so I’m not sure how you don’t see the admiration everyone has for you.
You’ve become one of my biggest inspirations. I’ll probably never be in the mood to admit this again, so make sure you’re listening.” He suddenly sits up and rests against the headboard, your movements copying his as he interlocks your hands with his.
He meets your gaze, and you feel like you fall in love with him all over again. He’s looking at you with pure adoration, as if he’s trying to engrave your face into his memory.
Even with tear stains running down your cheeks and puffy eyes, you’re still the prettiest person to exist. Everything about you is perfect, and a demon like me doesn’t even deserve to be in your presence, Zoro thinks.
“The time we spent apart, I took some time to think about our adventures as a crew. I’m not sure if I subconsciously did it because it was a strange feeling being away from you all, or if it was because Perona kept asking too many questions.
After explaining how the ten of us all became a crew, she pointed out that I mentioned you a lot. I didn’t think so at the time, but I guess it’s just something that feels natural to me. What I’m trying to say is…
“I love you. You know this already, but I know sometimes it feels nice to have a verbal reminder. I’m in love with you, and I know I’ll always be. And I’ll help you fight your battles, even when you ask me to give you space. I’ll do anything you want me to, just promise me you’ll let me be there for you. You — in such a short amount of time — have become my greatest weakness.
It hurts when you push yourself away from everyone else, especially me. I know you don’t want to feel like a burden, but you’ll never be one; to me, or the others. Especially to Luffy. Whether you decide to tell him you were there to see Ace, is up to you. I’m positive he won’t react the way you think he would. You’ve always taken on way more than what we ask of you, and applying more pressure to yourself isn’t going to make us look at you any differently. You’re appreciated for all that you do, and will always be.
The only thing I’m asking of you is to take the time and make sure you’re taking care of yourself. Physical battles already take a toll on all of us, and we can always help each other out, but the mental ones we face can only be taken on by ourselves. Even I find it hard to deal with it. But then I’m grounded by remembering the fact that I was put here on this Earth for a reason — everyone was.”
Your jaw is hung open at Zoro’s words; yes, he saves sweet talk for you and you only, but this was an entirely different and unexpected side of him.
You want to cry. You want to kiss him. You want to take all of his pain away and give it to the officials in the World Government. You want to cradle his face in your chest and kiss his cheeks and tell him sweet nothings; yet as you process his words, you sit there in silence.
I’m grounded by remembering the fact that I was put here on this Earth for a reason — everyone was.
Similar to the last words spoken to you by your beloved brother Ace, you feel tears slip out of your eyes and suddenly you’re trapping Zoro in your arms.
“Thank you, Zo.”
The whisper reaches him, and he relaxes comfortably in your embrace. He buries his head in the crook of your shoulder, his arms wrapped around your torso. Even though it took a lot of guts to be that vulnerable, his chest feels lighter. With a soft kiss pressed to the top of his head, you return the words back to him.
“I love you so much. Thank you for always being there for me. You’re truly one of my anchors in this life.”
+x+
You wake up the next morning alone in bed. It’s nothing out of the ordinary, except this time a note sits on Zoro’s nightstand.
Woke up to Nami banging on the door. Kind of surprised it didn’t wake you up either. Anyway, we’re docked now and Luffy dragged me out with him to explore. The stupid cook and Robin are still here on the ship, so I asked them to ring me when you wake up. If you decide to leave the ship, come find me. If not, then rest and I’ll come back to you later. Love you, Zoro.
You smile at the sloppy handwriting, your mind quickly flashing to last night’s conversation between the two of you. You sit and think about it and come to the conclusion that you no longer doubt yourself. You feel as light as a feather, hopping out of bed and changing into a new outfit for the day. You’re assuming your lover had taken it upon himself to change you, not remembering when you had put your sleeping clothes on.
You waltz into the kitchen, greeted with heart eyes and the smell of coffee.
“Good morning to you, Athena. We’ve been waiting for you to wake up, Sanji’s desperately wanting to go pick some things up. Are you feeling better now? Zoro said you were feeling under the weather this morning.” Robin’s gentle voice distracts you from worrying about the amount of blood spilling from Sanji’s nose, a soft smile on her face as you greet her back.
“Good morning! I feel much better now, like I can do anything.” You smile. Sanji’s serving you a plate of breakfast as you sit across from the archaeologist. You start to eat, trying to peek at the newspaper she’s holding in her hand. The headline makes you choke on your food.
“WHAT THE HELL? LUFFY’S AN EMPEROR NOW?!”
Your voice is loud enough that Sanji and Robin are sure the entire island could hear it. Before Sanji’s able to fill you in on what was discussed after you and Zoro went to bed, your shrieks were heard throughout the Sunny.
“WHAAAAAAT?! MY BOUNTY’S AT TEN DIGITS NOW?!”
“Well, you and Zoro missed a lot last night. We’re happy to know that you’re feeling better now though!” Robin says, a closed-eye smile sent your way.
You’re in a state of shock: reading the article that was released less than twenty four hours ago, and you hear Sanji’s tongue click.
“Maybe we should take Athena-swan to Chopper for medicine,” Eyes wide and jaw hung, you nod your head. “And probably look for the embarrassment you call your boyfriend.”
With that, you shove Sanji away from you, standing up quickly and taking hold of Robin’s hand. You grab your bag and walk off the ship with the two of them next to you, feeling thousands times better than last night.
Zoro, you say in your mind. Please don’t be lost. Eh — it’s been hours since they left. He’s definitely lost.
With a new sense of confidence and optimism, you hold your head high and continue your journey in making this a life worth living.
+x+

Et Tu, Brute? | Steph Cately x Reader
Words: 2.6k Summary: everyone betrays you. You just didn’t expect her to do the same; "et tu, brute?" - 'you too, Brutus?' – Caesar upon seeing his friend amongst his assassins Warnings: sexual themes, sexual shaming, leaked nudes, angst, I make the arsenal girls assholes sorry. this probably isn't my best but i hope you like it Request by - @liasputellas
The air felt different as I walked into training. I wasn’t sure what it was. Maybe the way Maggie our receptionist looked at me with disgust, or the way the whole locker room went quiet when I walked in, or the way everyone seemed to avoid me like the plague.
The rain was pelting down on us, but I stood alone on the sideline shivering as Jonas gives the rest of the team instructions. Steph seemed to be missing today despite the empty space in bed when I awoke, so I was the odd one out. He finishes and approaches me.
“I think you should take a few days off.” Is the only thing he says.
“Why? What have I done wrong? No on will talk to me.”
“You haven’t seen?” I begin to get nervous, well more nervous than I already was, as he pulls out his phone.
“I thought Steph would have shown you this morning. I wish I wasn’t the one to break it to you.” He types things in and scrolls for a while before finally landing on what he’s looking for. Then he turns the phone to me.
Arsenal’s Star Midfielder, Y/n L/n’s Naughty Pictures Have Been Leaked By An Anonymous Source
My breathing grows heavy, and my head begins to pound. My sight goes into tunnel vision as I reread the headline over and over. This can’t be fucking happening.
I take off stumbling back toward the locker room, seeking some sort of privacy to have the breakdown. I end up sitting on the floor beneath a running shower in some false hope that it will wash away everything, but it’s all for naught. There was only one person I’d ever sent photos to, and it was Steph. She’s the one person I trust with my deepest secrets and she’s not here to comfort me or help me understand why the girls are ignoring. Obviously, it has to do with the photos but, I thought they’d be by my side.
Sobs wrack my body and I lose track of time as the shower continues to run, until I hear boots clacking against the linoleum floors. I scramble to get up and leave before they arrive, but the effort is futile.
They come piling in but stop in their tracks the moment Kim sees my soaking frame looking at the floor ashamed. I try to move around them, but Katie grabs a hold of my shoulder, my drenched jersey sticking to her skin as well as my own. My eyes flick around desperately looking for someone who will let me go, but not even Kyra seems to feel remorse.
“You’re going to go home, end things with Steph and stay somewhere until you figure out where you’re transferring to. You’re not welcome back here.” Katie pushes me back toward the locker room, clearly a sign that I should fucking move and get out, but I’m stood frozen.
“Did you not hear her?” Caitlin begins to approach me, much like a lion approaches it’s prey, but I still can’t move.
“Why are you doing this? Why would I end things with Steph?”
“You’re a dirty cheating bastard that doesn’t deserve her. You’re fucking disgusting.” Despite my want to fall to the ground and cry again, I slowly move to my cubby and grab my stuff, then make my way out.
-
When I finally pull into the driveway, I become very aware of Steph’s car that fills the space again. I become wary as I close the car door and make my way to the house, fearing what I’ll meet on the other side. I juggle my keys in my hand and struggle to slide it into the lock as they shake, but eventually the wood swings away from me and I step inside.
It’s eerily quiet as I make my way down the hall. Steph’s nowhere to be seen as I pull my now damp kit off and place it in the washing machine, or when I go to our room to grab clothes to change into. I trek back through the house, eventually falling onto the couch, with no sign of my wife.
My phone buzzes and I reach for it in a hurry, hoping to see a message from Steph. Instead, it’s from a small group chat of friends from across the football scene, checking in to ask if I’m okay. I leave them on read and scroll through my contacts to find Steph. I press call, but it goes straight to voicemail.
~~~~~
15 minutes later, keys rattle against the door in a similar fashion to how I imagine mine did, and in walks Steph. When she spots me on the couch she stops in her tracks and the look on her face slowly melts into anger.
“Why are you here?” I admit the harsh tone in her voice feels like a stab to the heart.
“Well, I basically just got fired so I didn’t really have anywhere else to go Steph. Can we talk?”
“I don’t want to talk to you ever again.”
“Why? Is it because the fucking pictures you didn’t even bother to tell me about? Who doesn’t tell their wife that private pictures were leaked?”
“Don’t act like I’m in the wrong! You sent those photos to someone, it’s your fault for trusting them!”
“Who?! You? You’re saying I shouldn’t trust you?”
“No! Whoever you sent those fucking pictures to! Because it certainly wasn’t me who got them!” I freeze once I realise what she’s implying.
“Y- you really think I cheated on you? You think so low of me?”
“There is no other explanation for it Y/n!”
“You… you and the girls are fucking unbelievable. I’ve only ever sent those types of things to you Steph. Only you. You’re the only person I’ve ever trusted enough. You really think I’d throw 6 years together, 2 of those married, away like that?” I take a deep breath as I try not to break down in front of who I thought was the love of my life.
“If you scroll back far enough, you’ll find those photos in our messages. Around 11 months ago, after your birthday. Before this morning you wouldn’t have been able to find them on anyone else’s phones except ours. Which means our messages got hacked.” I stand up and bump shoulders with her as I make my way back to our room, pulling out a duffle bag and packing it.
It takes a few minutes for the brunette to follow me, looming in the door.
“What are you doing?”
“Leaving. Clearly that’s what everyone wants.”
“You’re just leaving? Just giving up?”
“Giving up!? No Steph, I’m not ‘just giving up’. You think I’m capable of cheating. You think I’d throw away all my years of loving you just like that. For what? Some random hookup with a meaningless girl I’d never see again? You clearly don’t trust me, which I can’t live with. I love you. And it’s not just you. The whole fucking team thinks so little of me. I kept my vows, why can’t you keep yours?” I continue to move around the room, collecting items I needed, as I wait for her response.
“I love you.” Is the only thing she can say, so I slip on some shoes, leaving the worn arsenal kit in the washing machine.
“I love you too. But until you can give me a proper apology, and mean it, I’m going to stay with Mackenzie or Sam. I guess tell Jonas I’ll hand in my resignation papers by tomorrow.” She grips my arm as I try to walk past her. Tears pool in her eyes and I can’t stop mine from falling.
“Please stay. We can talk.” She whispers, her bottom lip wobbling.
“I don’t think I can do that right now.” I reply, and I kiss her gently as a goodbye before I walk out the door.
~~~~~
I end up at Sam’s, having officially resigned from Arsenal the morning after leaving, who made a statement later that same day.
We deeply regret that we have to make this statement but unfortunately Y/n L/n has been let go from the Arsenal team due to conflict between players. We wish her the best wherever she ends up.
I spend a lot of time with Kristie or join Sam at training to avoid looking at the horrible things people are saying about me on my phone. Sam likes to claim it’s ‘to feel like I’m still playing’. It just makes me sad, which is why I had every intention of refusing her offer to go again today. Then she told me Emma wanted to talk to me about something.
“Why does Emma want to talk to me?” I poke Sam continuously as she leads me down the halls of Cobham.
“I have no clue.” The cheeky grin I’m very familiar with graces her face but it doesn’t hint at anything.
I push open the door and Emma directs me to sit down, which I don’t hesitate to do. Sam closes the door and leaves us to talk.
“I wanted to discuss your career’s future. You’ve spent a lot of time here with us after the situation, but have you received any offers from other clubs? What are your moves?”
“No. I haven’t received anything, no one wants to take the player who’s had a sex scandal. Not even in the Championship League.”
“Well obviously the transfer window doesn’t open until January, so it’s not on the table to bring you in as a player. But I was wondering, how do you feel about coaching. I’ve seen you give the younger players like Aggie tips, and she comes back onto the field much better, it’s clearly something you’re good at. Would it be something you’d look into doing?” I blink in shock as I try to process the question.
“Uh.. yes, yes absolutely I’d love to. I- I took the coaching courses over the break when I was out of the world cup on injury, so I’m fully qualified.”
“Well I’d love to have you on the coaching team. I’m looking for people to keep the players in line once I leave and I think someone who has played the recent developments in the game would be perfect. I have the contract ready for you to sign, right here, if you want.” She slides the paper over, and I read it over.
Am I really going to do this? Go to my clubs biggest rival? I could never make an appearance at Arsenal as a player or member of the team ever again. No one else wanted me. I couldn’t refuse the only offer I have.
“W- what about the leak? Aren’t I a liability?”
“We’re not stupid. They were personal photos between you and your wife. It’s not your fault and we know that. I want the best coaches for my team. And that’s you.”
Shock washes over the world of women’s football this week as Y/n L/n signs as an assistant coach alongside Emma Hayes at Chelsea. What does her wife, Arsenal and Australia’s star left back Steph Cately, think about this decision?
The day my signing is announced is the first time any of the Arsenal girls, including Steph, reach out to me.
‘What the fuck are you doing?’ From Katie
‘Are you serious?’ From Caitlin and Kyra
‘I genuinely hope you’re happy there. You deserve the best and we couldn’t give it to you. I couldn’t give it to you. I love you and miss you. Maybe we could talk after the derby next weekend?’ I want so bad to leave Steph on read, but I can’t help but reply.
‘We’ll see. Love you’. Kristie takes my phone from me after that.
Training is odd. Being the one running it instead of participating. I like to join in on easy drills, bonding with some players, keeping fit and helping them understand how we want it done. A win-win-win if you will. Emma’s press conference before the game against Arsenal is when things get tense again.
“What effect do you think L/n on the Chelsea coaching staff will have on Arsenal, especially her wife Steph Cately? We haven’t seen them together in quite some time.” Some guy in the back of the room asks the question but it still rings in my ears as I hear it, Kristie watching the conference on her phone because Sam’s there.
“Well I don’t think it should have any effect on their players. Players have to compete against their former teammates all the time, whether as players or coaches. This should not be any different. They kicked her out, they made that decision. We gave her the option to come back into the game when no one else was willing to take that risk, and she’s made us better. As for Steph? I don’t know how she will react. She’s an incredible player, I’m sure she’ll be fine, but that’s none of my business.” I’m grateful for the way Emma stands up for me. She’s one of the few people I now trust with what’s going on behind the scenes of my life and marriage.
It's when we’re in the dugout, the players about to come out from the tunnel, when I begin to genuinely worry. I don’t want to put Steph off her game just by being here, but I’m not going to abandon the team that gave me everything when I had nothing. So I pull on my puffer coat, put in my ear piece, and take my spot next to Emma who puts an arm around my shoulder and squeezes me tight.
Yeah. I’ll be okay.
-
The game is rough, every time we score, Arsenal comes back with a matching goal. But they’re playing dirty. They’re making unnecessary tackles and getting yellow cards every other minute.
I laugh it off until Steph makes a challenge in the penalty box. Her leg stretches out in front of her, kicking the ball away from Fran’s feet, but she falls on a funny angle and doesn’t get back up.
I walk to the edge of the coach’s box, trying to get a better view as the medics run to her.
I tell myself she’ll be okay. She’s always okay.
The medics bring out a stretcher.
She’s not okay.
“Emma-”
“Go make sure she’s okay. We’ll be okay.” I follow closely behind the medics as they carry her down the tunnel and to the medical room.
I slide into the seat beside her as their team’s doctor checks on her knee, taking her hand in mine.
“You’re here.” She smiles gently at me, and I try not to cry. I haven’t seen her in so long.
“I’m here Stephy. I love you.”
“I miss you.” She pouts then grimaces as the doctor moves her knee.
“I miss you too. But-”
“But you can’t act like everything is fine unless I prove I trust you and regret what I did.” I nod solemnly.
“I promise I’ll prove it. Maybe you can come stay at home again. Just a couple times a week. We can have dinners and catch up. I miss the way you hold me.” She squeezes my hand as she waits for an answer.
“Yeah. Yeah, we can try that.” I press a kiss to her hand.
“But I’m staying at Chelsea. They treat me right here.” Steph pauses, but smiles.
“Rivalry could be good for us. You little Blue.”
It will be a long journey, but we’ll make it through.

Cuddles [Alpha!Loki / Omega!Reader]
Summary: Loki is surprised that you ask him for cuddles
Ko-fi | Masterlist | Word count: 0.9k
Author’s note: This is pure fluff
Tumblr media
Cuddles
Loki has retired to the reading corner of the tower's library. It’s a slow day and he is minding his own business. People rarely linger in the library and that is one of the reasons why he likes this place.
So he is somewhat irritated when he notices a presence right next to the couch that won’t leave even after several minutes of ignoring. He looks up and over the top edge of his book.
You stand there watching him patiently with a blanket wrapped around you. When you see that you have his attention, you ask, “Uhm… are you open for cuddles?” Your voice is quiet, almost unsure. No wonder, since it’s the first time ever you’ve asked the alpha for this. Sure, you two are friendly with each other and as one of the few omegas of the team you’re probably closer to him than the others – except for his brother of course.
But fact is, Loki is a very private person and you respect that. So even to say that the both of you are friends may be a stretch. And you have never been touchy with him before. Until now…
Loki is certain that he misheard. Or maybe you think nobody else is available. Surely, you would prefer someone else! Therefore he helps you out by pointing out, “Rogers is upstairs watching a movie with the birdman.”
You just blink at him, not sure why he tells you this. “I know…?”
“… so, you don’t want to ask them?”
“I… no, I…” Suddenly uncertainty floods the air, while you take a step back. You feel rejected and decide to retreat, so you duck your head and mumble an apology. “Sorry, I’ll just go and-”
“No, wait,” Loki interrupts you, sitting up to reach out to you and stop you from leaving. He’s not used to being sought out for anything besides missions and the occasional polite invite for group activities.
But apparently you did know you have options and chose to come to him anyway. It is a surprise to him but not an unpleasant one.
You halfway turn you head back to him, ready to leave quickly at any point. Normally, you're very confident, but the few days before your heat have you always feel vulnerable, and asking the Asgardian out was out of your comfort zone. But you craved a calm presence like his. So you are waiting for his words.
Loki waits until you make eye contact. “I’m not opposed to cuddles if you want them.”
You scrunch your nose. While it’s not a rejection, you don't like the answer. “It’s okay to say ‘no’,” you tell him, a bit of your displeasure creeping into your voice. You’re annoyed about your own temper. “I don’t want to be in your way.”
“You won’t,” Loki reassures you with more emphasis and adds a soothing scent. “In fact I insist you stay here.” He pats on the cushion next to him on the couch.
Wary you glance from Loki to the space next to him and then right back to him. He seems honest enough, even though he is the god of lies. In the end the craving that brought you here in the first place wins and you tiptoe to him. The Asgardian lies back down and you arrange your body at his side.
Loki waits until you settle down, before raising his book to go back reading.
Cuddled to his side, you’re careful to still give him space which means that you keep your arms and legs carefully tucked close.
A few minutes go by but you’re not yet fully happy about it and you start wiggling and rearranging your blanket. You feel restless, readjusting several times and trying the new position for a few seconds before discarding it and turning again.
Loki lets you do your thing for a few minutes before he decides to step in. He puts his arm around you and pulls you even closer to him.
You inhale his scent that reminds you of fresh mint, parchment and maybe something else you can’t name yet. Closing your eyes you relax instantly. It also makes you stop fussing around and humming content.
You mumble into the fabric of Loki’s shirt, “Want some of my blanket?”
This time Loki does not hesitate to agree. He is proud that you consider him trustworthy enough to share something from your nest with him. “Yes, absolutely.”
Since his arm is still around you and he holds his book in his other one, he waits until you have arranged your blanket over him. His legs are too long and not completely covered, but he doesn't mind.
You’re completely happy to be surrounded by a mixture of his and your own scent. It’s perfect. Placing your head on his shoulder, your eyes drift to the book in his hands. It looks old and out of place with the almost parchment-like pages. You have never seen something like it before.
“What are you reading?”
“These are fairy tales from Vanaheim.”
That would explain it.
“Can you read it to me?” you ask him.
Loki paused. He is reluctant to turn down your request. “It’s not written in all-speak unfortunately. I’m not sure if I can translate it on the fly.”
“That’s fine. I just like hearing your voice.” You get a sniff of pleased alpha even though Loki tries not to show it too much. He starts reading out loud instead.
It’s a language you have never heard before, but it sounds pleasant. Although you’re pretty sure he could say anything and you would like the sound of it.
You close your eyes and concentrate on the alpha’s voice that you feel vibrating in his chest. You didn’t plan on falling asleep but you can’t help it. Slowly, your mind drifts off, purring happily.
You’re sure you only imagined the kiss gently pressed on top of your hair.

Love You (Always)
A/N: Heyyyyy this is for all my insecure girlies regardless of what type of body you have. All girlies can feel insecure at times even if you're a 00 or if you're a size 20. So here's a cute comforting fic for all of us ladies who need some extra confidence sometimes! Pairing: Gerard Way x F!Reader Word count: 2,316 words Warnings: Mentions of insecurity, scrutinizing of one's own body, not necessarily an eating disorder, but themes/habits of disordered eating/limited eating, swearing, slight angst
You weren’t really a clingy kind of person, that’s probably how you and Gerard worked out so well. But right now, you were pretty sure you were watching every second until he got home.
You had spent a whole two days cleaning the apartment from top to bottom, making sure everything was set. You couldn’t believe you were going to admit it, but you were somehow nervous for his return. You hadn’t seen each other in months, talking over the phone was spontaneous at best, and he hadn’t been home since, well- you couldn’t remember, actually.
So maybe that’s why in your mind everything had to be perfect, because you weren’t sure what to expect. I mean, this could all simply explode in a minute, right? One small tap on the glass for it to shatter.
You paced around the room a bit, biting on your nail, something you never did, and awaited with baited breath and a thumping heart. He was your boyfriend of three years and you were somehow nervous to see him. It was like a date with a middle school crush but far worse because at the end of the day this actually mattered.
You could hear the door rumble a bit and swing open, looking up to be met with Gerard initially struggling with his bags a bit, but placing them down by the front with a sigh and looking up at you with a smile. You smiled back as he was the first to run up to you and give you a kiss. It wasn’t hectic or frantic just gentle and calm.
“Hi.” You finally said once he pulled away, meeting his eyes and he looked down at your with a smile.
“Hi.” He responded, “I missed you.”
“I missed you too.” You smiled back. “I- um, do you need help with your bags?”
“Nah, I’ll get ‘em later.” He calmly shrugged, “Probably need a shower though-”
“Oh thank God you said it.” You let out a sigh of relief, “With as much respect as possible, you smell like shit.”
“Thanks.” He snorted, beginning to walk back to your shared room where the closet space was. “Glad we’re on the same page.”
Tumblr media
You took a deep gulp as he stepped out of the shower and you were able to finally notice his physique for the first time since being back. He had a towel wrapped around his waist, but his upper body was now structured with soft muscles on his arms and while he still had a bit of a belly (something you adored for whatever reason), he was much… thiner, than he was.
It didn’t shock you by any means considering he was practically getting a full blown workout for an hour a day in the hot sun while touring in the middle of summer. But it also didn’t help your own mental view of yourself.
You had always had this on and off again relationship with self love. Most of the time now, having matured and all and realizing how fake most bodies plastered on magazine pages were, you managed to actually find a lot of confidence in the way you looked. Sure, you were a bit chubby, some chunk on your arms, around your thighs and hips, a bigger belly than just the small one most women had, but you had managed to love the curves that came with it.
“Might as well take a picture.” You heard Gerard say and quickly looked to his face where he was smiling at you, realizing that you had been full blown staring for way too long. You couldn’t even respond, only looking away in complete embarrassment. “Oh c’mon baby,” He softly said, “You’re never speechless.”
He threw a shirt and sweatpants on before walking out to where you were laying on the bed, plopping down right next to you and letting his arms snake around your waist, squeezing you tight. As soon as he did though, and didn’t get your usual enthusiastic response since he knew you loved that move, his eyebrows furrowed a bit. “You okay?” He asked a bit more seriously despite you still facing away and not moving. “Did I say or do something, hon?” You shook your head silently. “What’s up?”
You tried to pull out of his grip, now being doubly embarrassed and therefore on the verge of tears, but it did not work with him at all. Damn, he had gotten stronger too. “Hon-” He tried to push a bit but was quickly stopped.
“Could you not?” You finally pushed back, turning over slightly to face him, his facial expressions quickly contorting from concern to shock. “I’m just not in the mood.” You sighed, getting up as he finally freed you from his grip. “And sorry for staring at you.” You mumbled, walking out of the bedroom and towards the main area leaving him completely dumbfounded.
What had he done in the 15 minutes he was home? Had he done something before and you were just being nice at first? Was he being too up front? Did you need more time to warm up again? Did he read something wrong?
The questions flooded his mind like an exploded dam as he sat up still confused but deciding to give you space and understanding intruding on your personal bubble right now would lead to way more harm than good. Maybe I should Google it or something- Google it Gerard? What are you thinking? Talk to your therapist but- damn, it’s like 9 pm don’t disturb him. Frank’s not bad with advice but he just got home too, Mikey maybe?
He wasn’t sure what to do because clearly, not obviously, like so blatantly, something was very, very wrong. But what was that thing? How did he fuck this all up so fast?
He was pondering his next plans of actions, because yes he would ideally like to sleep in a bed his first night being back in a while, but also the couch seemed like a more fitting punishment for whatever crime he had committed. But you were out there, and seemed like some form of distance at least temporarily seemed to fit the situation.
Finally, after some deep consideration, he figured it was best to just leave you alone and go to bed. If you wanted to come back, he would be on his side facing the other way, being sure not to disturb you. He turned off his side lamp and finally laid down, inevitably having to let the feeling that this was an issue for tomorrow settle on his turning stomach.
Tumblr media
The next morning had started out usual for you. You had woken up, taken a shower, done your hair and skincare routine all within a time that Gerard had shockingly not woken up. You let him sleep extra knowing his sleep schedule on tour was never usual and getting anything more than four hours was a blessing, and also because of the little fit last night that you still were too embarrassed to address. Because how were you supposed to bring up your insecurities to your boyfriend without having to acknowledge them?
Just as you finished brushing your teeth you heard his footsteps pad through the bedroom and into the bathroom, where he quickly yawned from next to you in the mirror. “Morning, hon.” He said, his morning voice thicker than ever.
“Morning.” You replied, spitting out the last of your toothpaste, “How’d you sleep?”

“Well,” He said, grabbing his own toothbrush and stealing the tube of toothpaste from your side, “Much better than on the bus.” You lightly smiled at him.
“What d’you wanna do today?” You asked him, brushing your hair once last time. He shrugged.
“Not much, to be honest.” He said, “Maybe breakfast or lunch, then hang out around here. Just wanna be around you.” He smiled a bit, letting a some of the foamed tooth paste show in his mouth which you lightly giggled at.
“Sure,” You replied, “That sounds good.”
You quickly got dressed into leggings and a baggy sweatshirt. At least this would cover your stomach and thighs. The whole “staying in” plan for the day made it easier to justify the outfit and for him to hopefully think not much of it. “You ready?” He asked, walking to the edge of your closet as you nodded.
You grabbed your tote bag on your way out, locking the door behind you, and was quickly met with his hand engulfing yours as you entered the street. He gave it a little squeeze, something he knew you adored, and suddenly had a blush growing on your face.
Thankfully, having lived in New York a decent amount of time now, you had found local favorites that were easy to get into and always good. A diner down the corner was one of your favorites, and especially early in your relationship was a frequent place you would go each morning after he spent the night with you.
You had your usual orders: Gerard would go for pancakes and you would go for french toast, and then each of you would pick off of the others when you got sick of your own. It was almost part of the routine of days like today. That was why Gerard happened to be so off guard when you didn’t order your usual, I mean, you still ordered a regular plate of breakfast food, bacon, eggs, hashbrowns and all, but it wasn’t the usual thing.
He kept to himself a bit, eyeing you instead as each of you talked, and noticing slight body language queues of uncomfortability. He was still pondering last night, and the way you seemed to shrink yourself today didn’t give any indication that you were over whatever was bothering you from yesterday.
You didn’t comment or seem to mind when he took some of your food from your plate, but it made him feel a bit more guilty when you weren’t taking any from his.
“Want some?” He asked, motioning his head and silverware towards his plate. It was still half full of pancakes he has conservatively drenches with just enough syrup to your liking. Why did he have to be so perfect at all the wrong times?

You were tempted, but before your mind could even fathom the taste of his pancakes you remembered how you looked. And you lost all that appetite. You shook your head. “No, thank you.” You replied, taking a small nibble of your hashbrowns.
Gerard really didn’t want to ruin breakfast, but he was also confused, and turning slightly anxious by the moment. You had always enjoyed food, he loved that about you. You were never afraid to try anything new, and the look on your face when you ate your favorite meals was always so genuine and happy. Today it looked just painful.
“Sweetheart,” he spoked up after a moment. You looked up at him. “Is something wrong? Are you alright?”

He wasn’t sure now why he has asked it, seeing your eyes immediately fill with tears and your poor attempt at try to prevent your face from going sour. “Shit.” He muttered to himself, putting his silverware down, and using his free hand to grab yours from across the table.
“I’m just-“ You spoke, with a shaky voice and slow tear trailing down your cheek. You took your free hand and used the sleeve of your hoodie to wipe it off. “It’s so stupid.”

“Honey, whatever you’re feeling is never stupid.” He told you, his face having melted into a puddle of concern. “I’m here to listen, always. You can always tell me anything and everything.”

“I know.” You sniffled a little, taking a deep breath. “Just- seeing you come home and you’ve- you’ve, I don’t know, lost some weight- and you look great! Don’t get me wrong, but I just don’t know why you want me when I look like this and you-“

“Stop.” He said before you could even finish your sentence. You looked up at him with some worry as he sighed. “To begin with, I love your body. I’ve always found you incredibly sexy, and will always think you’re gorgeous even when we’re 80.” He said, “Next, even if your body changes at all, it will never make me stop loving you. I don’t love you just for your body, it’s a wonderful perk you happen to have, but I will always love you for you.” He sighed, “And finally, even if you did gain weight, or your weight shifted to other places, that’s just more of you to love. There is zero downside to that.”
You took a few moments considering his words. “Thanks.” You replied simply, feeling a little more calm but guilty for allowing your feelings to ruin his first day back. “Sorry for-“

“No apologizing for your feelings.” He said again, squeezing your hand. “I love you, and I will always be here to listen to you. Never feel guilty for feeling one way or another, okay?” You nodded. “Now, do you want some of my pancakes.”
You took a deep sigh of defeat. “Yeah.” He smirked, pushing the plate halfway across the table as you removed your hands from each other to go back to holding your silverware.
You took a pretty decent amount, stabbing with your fork and ferociously cutting with your knife. “Fuck these are good.” You grumbled, halfway done chewing them. He chuckled.
“Have as many as you want.” He softly smiled. 
“I regret not getting the french toast.” You admitted with a small cringe. “We always share it.”

“You wanna get it to go? We can keep it as a late night snack for later.” You took a moment contemplating his suggestion with a growing smile. You nodded. “Extra strawberries?” He asked with a knowing smile.
“Always.”

my love, mine all mine
xiao x gn!reader — 1.5k words.
genre: angst, comfort, not at all established relationship but the feelings are there
warnings: mentions of death, implied (kinda) stalking (nothing bad), reader is not the traveler (reader is never the traveler with me)
synopsis: Xiao struggles and attempts to understand why he shouldn't constantly be watching over you.
author's note: no way i'm back? that's crazy
Tumblr media
Xiao doesn’t believe it’s odd to make sure the only person he truly cares for is doing well at all times.
“You’ve been following me.” you say, and there’s an accusatory edge to your voice despite the calmness of it. Xiao feels it cut his skin. It’s uncomfortable enough to make him rethink his choices for a second.
But he doesn’t understand. “No.” he states, flat. It’s a blatant lie but the tone of your voice makes him feel like he shouldn’t be completely honest, right now. “I come when you call my name. As we agreed.” he adds, for good measure.
You tilt your head to the side, eyes never leaving his. It’s like you’re trying to read him. No matter how nervous it makes him feel, he’s certain his gaze does not betray him. He looks as uninterested as he usually does. And surely, you sigh and return to your original position, seemingly a bit confused.
“That isn’t true.”
Xiao gulps. He furrows his eyebrows, features pulling into a slight scowl. His expression urges for further explanation.
“I mean,” you sigh, crossing your arms. Your eyes move elsewhere as you think. “You’ve come to help me several times before, without me even calling your name. There’s no point in denying that.”
“I was nearby.” he counters, “Should I just ignore you, then?” his voice turns to a scoff, now. He’s annoyed. Or just trying to cover anxiousness.
“Xiao.” you say, and your voice is soft but it sounds like a warning. “Let’s not do this. Just be honest with me. You’re following me.”
He looks away, his expression faltering. He looks more upset than irritated, now. The crowds of people walking around Liyue Harbor are a dull noise background to this scene. He wishes it was less full of people, more peaceful— Though you’re standing near the entrance gate, and it’s much quieter there. He wants time and space and silence to process his thoughts, and yours, and his emotions, and yours. He’s not usually this picky, but he wants to understand properly.
He just needs to make sure you’re okay. He has the ability to do so whenever he isn’t busy, so he figures he should. But the way you’re talking about this makes him think this isn’t considered regular behavior to… Normal people.
He thinks about the best way to word this before he speaks. It takes a while.
“… I don’t want to lose you.” he almost whispers, voice so soft it could easily be lost to the noise in the background. He doesn’t meet your gaze, no matter how persistent it is. He wants to say why, he wants to insist that he just needs you to be safe, wants to tell you that he’d be willing to spend every second of his life making sure you’re alright if he had the time—
“I’ll quit watching over you so much if you really dislike it.” — He settles for this. After all, he shouldn’t be overstepping any boundaries. But he’s unfamiliar with humans. He’s not used to what is too much, and the opposite. When it comes to you, it gets so much worse. He’s never cared this much— Not in centuries, probably not ever.
“I can take care of myself.”
Xiao almost feels angry, and it shows in his eyes when he looks back up at you. “You’re mortal.”
You give him a look. “And I’m alive. I can take care of myself.”
“And you could die.”
“So could you.”
Xiao stammers slightly and looks away, closing his lips. He wants to say you’re not half as careful as he is, but it just isn’t true. There’s no excuses to use. He sighs sharply, before bringing his gaze back up to you. “Your point being?”
“That I don’t want you to die, either.” you exhale, eyes a bit wide. “I care about you and I want you to be safe— Hell, Xiao, you have no idea what it’s like watching you suffer so much and stay unable to do a single thing about it. I can’t help you, and I can’t even tell you to take a rest, because you’re terribly stubborn. It’s frustrating. And yet I go on with my life, because I have to.”
The wind blows. It’s cold.
He cannot count the times he’s watched the anxiety in your eyes each time he would come back to Wangshu Inn with more injuries than usual. He usually tries not to think about it, about how dismissive he tends to be of your own worries. Though now it feels like a slap in the face. What right does he have to insist on worrying so much when he doesn’t even let you? Still.
Xiao listens to every word and stares at you wide-eyed, before looking at the background. The lanterns are lit and the people of Liyue go on with their lives. They all have their worries, all have people they hold dear, and they go on with their lives. So do you.
“I’m an Adeptus. Unlike you, I have time to spend. Time to kill.” he says simply, “I’m willing to spend it on you. I don’t care if it’s a waste.”
“You can’t devote yourself to me.” you scoff, and it sounds like it should be a joke.
“I can, and I will. If you allow me.”
You look back at him and your expression’s unreadable. It softened, but Xiao cannot tell what you’re feeling. At all.
“… And I won’t, if you insist.” he adds slowly, tone careful.
A long silence follows, and it’s hard for Xiao to tell what’s on your mind. He feels like he hasn’t felt this scared in a long while, and it feels ridiculous. He fights deadly creatures from the Abyss every day and night, yet he’s never felt his heart beat so painfully against his ribcage. No, not even the events of his self-sacrifice and the certainty of what should have been his own death made him feel this way.
He doesn’t like feeling anxious around the person he considers more important than life itself— Though he supposes it just goes to show how important you are. Otherwise, he would not even bother caring.
“No one enjoys being followed. Just come see me as you normally would.” you finally say, and there’s a small smile on your face. Xiao doesn’t know humans well, but he knows you. And he can tell at the very least that you have no intention to tell him to never see you again— That you hold no ill feelings towards him. You’re not angry, thank the Archons.
He breathes out quietly, relieved, and nods slowly. “Then I’ll stop.” he speaks with certainty. He will. He will stop. He’ll… Shorten his visits. Make them less frequent. Make himself known, like you said. 
Maybe just… Go to you and ask to spend time together. Is that what’s normal? He figures it is.
His gaze wanders to your hand and he suddenly grabs your wrist, gentle, but firm enough to pull you along with him. He hears you yelp in surprise but walks all the way outside the gates of Liyue Harbor.
He stops at a familiar spot and sighs. There, all he hears is the sound of the sea, and all that is alive is you, him, and the nature around. 
There, he feels more at ease. So his hand slips down from your wrist to your own hand, fingers wrapping around yours carefully. It isn’t the first time your hands intertwine, and Xiao prays each time that it’ll never be the last. There’s times you tell him the way he looks at your hands is the way a lover does. Xiao does not know love. He doesn’t care about a name to put on what you two have, either.
He looks up at you. “Always be careful.” he says, eyebrows furrowing— I won’t be there as much, then be careful so I’ll know I don’t need to worry.
He just knows he needs to be there for you. Always.
You wrap your arms around him slowly, setting your chin on his shoulder. Xiao closes his eyes and feels himself relax into your hold. His hands move to hold you, as careful as usual. He needs to die like this, he thinks, that’s the only good way to go. No heaven would dare compare to this.
“Please.” he adds, quieter. His voice almost sounds shaky, and he doesn’t even realize the word that slipped out. But he feels you nod against his neck.
“I’ll be careful.”
Xiao feels vulnerable in your hold. Weak. It’s something he would usually hate, but not when he’s around you. When you’re here, the feeling is warm, and comforting— It’s like he can finally allow himself rest.
Zhongli says home is where you can let your guard down. It’s a safe space. Xiao understands his home is not a place, but a person— his home is you. And he will always do anything in his power to ensure its safety. So his hold on you tightens, like a silent promise to do all that he can to ensure your wellbeing.
After all, you’re more important than anything else.
“Xiao.”
“Hm?”
“Let’s stay like this for a while longer.”
“… Okay.”
Tales could be written about the unusually soft smiles of the Conqueror of Demons, about his love for a human being so much more important than the world itself. Alas, none will know about it, for you keep all these stories to yourselves.

Happy Follower Event! Could I ask for Jango Fett with tanzanite in winter? You write some of the best Jango fics that always hit the spot for me.
Winter Wonderland
Summary: You love Jango, and he loves you. And after an annoying dinner party with people who think you deserve something else, you have a surprise for him.
Pairing: Jango Fett x F!Reader
Word Count: 868
Prompt: Tanzanite - Perceptive Love
Warnings: None
Tagging: @trixie2023 @n0vqni @imabeautifulbutterfly
A/N: I hope this is close to what you wanted. I went with their 'perceptive love' being more aimed towards being able to read each other no matter where they might be in the room.
Tumblr media
“Well, what do you think?” You ask as you spin in front of Jango, allowing the hem of your sweater dress to swirl around your legs.
A small smile plays on the corner of his lips, “You look stunning, as ever.” He straightens from where he’s leaning against the wall and holds out a hand to you.
You beam at him and step into his personal space sliding your hand into his, “You know, you don’t have to wear your armor everywhere.” You tease.
“It’s warm, and I’m hardly the star of this event,” He presses a feather light kiss against the corner of your lips, “That honor belongs to you.”
Your face heats and you duck your head, “You know mother is going to take this opportunity to arrange a marriage for me, right?”
He chuckles, “I’m not worried.”
“I am!”
“Don’t be. I have you.”
Any and all of the nervous energy thrumming through your body fades at his words. He’s so confident, how could you possibly doubt him?
So you smile at him, and gently brush your lips against his, “My hero.” You lightly pull away and press his helmet into his hands, “We might as well get this over with.”
He chuckles and pulls his helmet on, “Don’t sound too eager, cyare.”
“Well, there’s no risk of that happening.” You tease before you follow him out of the bedroom and into the main part of the hotel room you’re sharing. You pull your boots on as Jango straps his weapons to his body, and then Jango is escorting you to the elevator and down to the banquet hall.
“Darling!” You hide your grimace with the ease of long practice as your mother charges over to you like a bull, and gives you a critical once over, “Well, you don’t look like you just crawled out of the trash, so I’ll take it.” She glances at Jango, “You can go away now. Bodyguards are staying in the back.”
You glance at Jango and flash a weak smile, every line of his body screams ‘not happy about this’ to your eyes, but he nods once and moves through the crowd to join the rest of the guards at the back of the room. 
Forty five minutes later, you’re regretting coming to the banquet at all.
Mother is drunk and has draped herself over a man younger than you. Father is also drunk, and is holding court with a group of women ranging from your mother’s age to younger than you.
And you…well, you’ve been trying to dodge the man your mother decided that you’re going to marry for the better part of forty minutes.
So far, you’ve been pretty careful about making sure that you can’t be cornered. But you’re done. With this whole affair.
So you cast your gaze to the back of the room, and you catch Jango’s attention. His gaze has been a heavy, and comforting, weight against your skin since you arrived, and you tilt your head in just the way that you need to to indicate that you want to leave.
Jango’s at your side in less than 15 seconds, “Are you ready to leave, cyare?” he asks as he sets his hand against the small of your back.
“So ready.” You smile at him, “No one will even notice I’m gone.”
“He will.” Jango notes, tilting his head just enough to gesture to the man who’s been haunting you like a particularly annoying ghost.
“Is that jealousy I hear, Jango Fett?” You tease.
“Pity, mostly. Imagine thinking he could hold a candle to me.”
You laugh softly, “No one could ever compare.” You lean a bit closer, “I would like to leave, Jango.”
“I know, cyare.” He glances around, “This way.”
He leads you out a side door, into the brisk cold outside. There’s snow falling from the sky, and you release a happy hum as you move further away from the hotel. 
“I love the winter, I think it’s my favorite season.”
Jango chuckles, his voice no longer altered by his vocoder, and you turn to look at him. He’s holding his helmet, and watching you with a small smile. “We met in the winter.”
You beam at him, and spin so you’re able to slide into his arms, “It was snowing,” You agree, “And I wasn’t dressed for the weather at all. And you offered me a place on your ship until I could warm up.”
“And you just never left.” Jango finishes with a fond smile, as he tightens his arms around you, “Smartest damn thing I’ve ever done.”
You giggle, and lean up to kiss his jaw. “Well, I happen to agree. But I also have a surprise for you.”
“Oh?”
“Mm, you’re going to need a bigger ship. It’s barely big enough for two…let alone three.”
“Three? Why would there be thre-” He stops and his gaze drops to your stomach, “Wait. Are you-?”
You smile sheepishly, “Surprise.”
You squeak when Jango crashes his lips against yours, “I love you,” He mumbles against your lips, “So.” He kisses you again, “Kriffing.” A third time. “Much.”
And you dissolve into giggles. You knew he’d be excited.

Desire…(pt 2)
Tumblr media
Scar/AFAB Reader!
A/N: so this was in my drafts for a bit and just needed to be proofread 🤭 oops im so sorry i became a hard ATINY and now my life revolves around those 8 queers 🥴 hope you all enjoy and let me know when Scar comes back i havent touched WuWa since 🙄 feel free to read part 1 here hehe
WARNINGS: language, unprotected sex, monster fucking 👀
MINORS DO NOT INTERACT!
Upon finally entering his room, Scar let you down onto your feet and gave you a kiss on the forehead, “Welcome home doll.” he said softly. You looked around the room, taking in everything all at once and learning the kind of person he was behind closed doors. It was all, surprisingly normal looking. The room was large enough to have two separate spaces. There was a section for his bed, ornate and comfortable looking, and a section for lounging where he had a computer set up. Aside from the shockingly bright red walls, there really wasn’t much to say about it. “And here I thought you’d have people chained up and begging for their lives.”
Scar emerged from a door you assumed led to the bathroom since you could hear water running in the background. “That’s what the dungeon is for, maybe I’ll show it to you one day.” he said and reached out to you. You took his hand and he led you to the bathroom, which had the same red walls but there were accents of black and gold that caught your eye. He sat on the edge of the onyx colored bathtub, observing the way you looked around at everything. “Im a little offended you think i would live like some kind of barbarian,!Rover.” he said crossing his arms over his chest. You giggled and turned to look at him, “Sorry it’s just, I’m glad i won’t have to change much, I like your taste.” you said as you put both hands on his cheeks. You squished his face and leaned in to kiss him but he pulled back. “Who said you’re even allowed to touch anything?” You don’t know why you thought everything he did was so cute, but the way he spoke through his squished cheeks was just so endearing. “Blah blah blah,” you teased and pulled him into that kiss you wanted. He pulled you closer, intensifying the kiss and squeezing your rear. Now you were the one to pull away from him, finally removing your shoes and stockings. He stood up and stopped the running water and added some sweet smelling soap. He helped you get in the tub, making eye contact with you as he removed his own shoes and pants.
You finally got a good look at his dick, at full mast by now after all of the teasing the two of you were doing. And it was just as impressive as you expected, long and thick with a delicious looking curve that caused a pang in your gut once you saw it. He saw you eyeing him and reached for it, tugging on it hard. You made eye contact with him and pointed to your mouth in a cute way that made him smile. He prodded at your mouth, moaning as he felt the warmth and wetness once you took him in. “Who am i kidding, you can do whatever the fuck you want,” he huffed and took the back of your head with both hands and pushed you even further onto him. You gagged hard and looked up at him, his smile widening mischievously, pulling out so you could catch your breath. “You’ll get used to it, promise.” he said and leaned down to give you a kiss.
He then stepped into the tub, sitting down across from you, leaning back on the rim of the tub. “Feels so good to be home, that prison was so dull, if you hadn’t gotten me out of there when you did, I’m not sure what i’d have done.” You grabbed the nearby wash cloth and dunked it into the water, letting the soapy suds soak into it. You began scrubbing him, starting with his neck and chest. “I’m sure someone would have shown up, and given us quite the fight.” As you scrubbed his skin, the scars on his body almost looked red due to the warm water. You couldn’t help but admire his body, muscular yet lean and littered with scars that each held a story to tell. “I told them that once i was caught to not bother coming for me, a part of me felt like there was no way they could win against you,” your hands slipped into the water and began scrubbing his stomach and thighs. “I really was banking my fate on you,” he said softly, taking you by the chin to look into your eyes. “How did you know that i’d choose you?” He smiled and pulled you closer, “The day in that clearing, when i told you that story, you were so interested in finding out the truth,” you moved with him as he pulled your face closer to his, your cunt brushing against his stiff cock as you now straddled him. “Your curiosity to learn everything they’ve been lying to you about, I knew youd want to know more, and getting you like this,” he kissed you as he prodded at your entrance, lazily grinding up against you, “is a bonus, I mean I’m good but I didn’t know i was that good,” he laughed at himself, patting himself on the back for getting someone as lovely as you on his side, and in his bed.
“Quite the gamble,” you said and reached down, taking the base of his cock and lining him up with your waiting cunt. “So impatient,” he said as he watched you, and reached down to stop you from sinking down on him by holding your thigh with one hand, while the other grabbed his cock. He rubbed his tip against your folds, “You think you’re gonna get what you want that easily?” he chuckled darkly and moved you so that you could sit with your back pressed against his chest. You audibly whined, “You are as evil as they say!” you teased and he just laughed. He grabbed some soap and began cleansing your body, trailing the soap down your front, “Come now, I want to help clean up the mess I made,” he kissed your cheek playfully while you seethed.
Once the two of you finished washing up your need was still as hot as ever, now hating how he laughed at you as you began getting bratty with him. But almost as if he felt your desire, the second he helped you stand on the plush bath mat, he lifted you up, and finally stuffed you full of his cock in one swift motion. “Scar!” you yelped out, your wet hands gripping for purchase on his back. He knew exactly how to get to you already, making you realize just how your lives together would play out from now own. You held onto him, the cool air pricked at your slicked skin as he walked you to his bed.
He sat down on the edge of the bed, his dick so deep inside of you, you were sure you felt him in your gut. You tried moving up on him but he held you down firmly and scoffed. “Needy little slut,” his words made you clench down on him even harder, your pussy was aching at this point. “Asshole,” you hissed suddenly, the surprised look on his face threatening to make you giggle through your fake annoyance. “Did you bring me back to fuck me or just tease me?” you tried wiggling out of his grasp, pushing against his chest as you tried to stand. “I’ll just finish myself off-ahh!” you yelped as he gripped you even tighter, his fingernails had turned to claws during your attempt at defiance. Scar dragged his claws up your back, “Fuck I didn’t think you had it in you,” you finally started to ride him slowly, his thick cock molding agsinst your waitibg walls. “You’re holding back, aren’t you?” you huffed against his lips, letting out a small moan as he bucked up against you. “You’re worried I’ll get hurt, right?” you took his face in your hands, kissing his lips breathlessly as you chased your release. “Yes,” he sighed holding you even closer, his hands now resting at your rear. “I can handle it Scar, please don’t hold back.” your voice was a whisper in his ears now, pleading for him to let go and be himself with you.
He growled, the tightness of your walls against him driving him to finally let go. His eyes glowed red and his horns appeared on his forehead. They twisted at the tips as he stared at you, a wicked smile on his face. You reached for his horns, and pulled him into a kiss, one he reciprocated eagerly. He lifted you up as he stood and maneuvered your body swiftly so that you were on your back. But you immediately turned so that you were on your knees, “Come on then,” you perked your ass up to him and you could see the way his eyes flashed. Scar buried himself into you once again, his claws digging into the flesh of your ass, “Rover, you better tell me if it’s too much, okay?” he said with a moan as he felt your tightness around him. You just nodded quickly, bucking back up against him as you craved more of him. His pace quickened, his hips smacking into yours loudly, any mystery of what was happening in here lost due to the lewd sounds the two of you were making. Gods you hated how good his dick felt, already knowing you’d be addicted to it after this. You were certain you’d be begging him to fuck you wherever and whenever you wanted from now on. He pressed down on the small of your back, your body sinking onto the bed and resting on your arms and cheek. The harder he fucked you, the more you felt your peak nearing, accompanied by a slight pain. But you didn’t stop him like he told you to, you didnt want the onslaught of the most intense pleasure you ever felt to stop. Not only that, you were sure you couldn’t even speak a coherent sentence with the whiny babbles that were dripoung from your lips as he pistoned into you. Scar leaned down, “Perfect little rover, all mine.” he moaned out and licked your cheek, trailing a path to your neck. He kissed and sucked marks onto your back and once he was done, he caged your body between his arms. He fucked you into the mattress mercilessly, tears forming at the corner of your eyes at the pleasure and you buried your face into the sheets, quieting the scream that signaled your climax. “Yes, fuck don’t stop!” you begged as you clenched around him, feeling another orgasm incoming. Scar didnt let up, loud grunts coming from deep in his thtoat as he threw his head back, “Gods,” he sighed and thrust against you as hard as he could, bringing the both of you to climax. You writhed on his twitching cock that filled you with his hot seed, finally unclenching your jaw and letting go of the sheets. He kissed the back of your neck, “I really fucking like you, doll.” he chuckled against you before pulling out. He watched his release drip out of your spent and swollen pussy, “You alright?“ You moved to sit up, wiping at you eyes “I’m fine Scar,” you spoke softly, looking at him with tired fucked out eyes. You reached for him and he smiled, moving closer to cuddle you.
The two of you lay next to one another chatting about your new life together and getting to know one another better. He kissed and soothed you, reassuring you with kind words about how he’d never betray you. “You can trust me,” his voice was soft as he spoke, pulling you even closer to him by your leg. You winced and let out a small sigh from the pain, “I told you to tell me if it hurt,” he said rolling his eyes at you. You snuggled closer to him, “I know but it felt so good, I wasn’t about to stop you.” you kissed his chest to reassure him you were going to be fine. Scar growled in defiance but still kissed your forehead, despite you disobeying him. The rest of the night was spent with him praising you and thanking you for choosing him, his stamina unlike anything else you’ve experienced as he pleasured you over and over again.
A/N: PLEASE LET ME CHOOSE HIM!!!!! I WANT ONLY HIM!!! ugh!!! i dont wanna feel good i wanna feel evil and fuck the hot villain 🥲

Hiii! You're writing is so beautiful! :D I was wondering if you could write an NSFW with Isaac, where Pickle is a bit inexperienced... Like-- a more fluffy and romantic NSFW! To see Isaac being all gentle and comforting! :D
Tumblr media
Inexperienced (NSFW)
Isaac Rhoades x Reader
“We can go slow, there’s no rush,” Isaac murmured against your head, holding you in his arms as you both lay on top of the covers of your shared bed. 
The last case had been particularly stressful, and now that you had cracked it, cuddling in bed had seemed like a perfect way to unwind. The slow kisses had turned more heated with time, and as Isaac slipped his hand lower until it rested against your lower back, pressing you further against his chest, your heart began hammering in your ribcage. 
“We don’t have to do anything if you don’t want to,” he said, kissing your forehead and loosening his embrace to give you more space, not wanting you to feel trapped. 
You chuckled, unable to fight the smile spreading across your face at his gentleness. Isaac was always very attentive, picking up on your changing mood or expressions almost instantly. It was what made him such a good Private Investigator, you reasoned. He knew you were nervous.
Still, there was no person in the world you trusted more than Isaac, and you were more than willing to give yourself to him completely. “It’s fine, I want to,” you said, rolling half on top of him to place a kiss against his lips. “Just be gentle, please.”
Isaac smiled at you fondly, kissing your cheek before propping himself up on his elbows and flipping you over, pinning you down and making you chuckle in surprise. “Always, Pickle,” he assured you, beginning to unbutton your shirt and making sure to kiss every inch of your exposed skin before moving on to the next button.
The slow descent of his lips made you gasp quietly, desire building within you as Isaac moved lower. You buried a hand in his hair, brushing through it gently. He hummed in contentment, looking up at you through his eyelashes as he placed another kiss against your lower stomach. 
“You’re very pretty,” you told him as Isaac took his time undoing your pants, brushing over your clothed thighs first and caressing your calves. Your words made a faint blush appear on his cheeks, and he only smiled appreciatively at you, hiding his sudden shyness by pulling your pants off of you. 
“Well, you’re the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen,” he said when you were both naked, his gaze roaming over your body, from your spread legs to your slightly swollen lips. 
“Shut up,” you said playfully to hide the nervousness you felt at being so exposed. You squirmed, trying to get comfortable and relax on your back. Seeing Isaac half-hard before you, kneeling between your legs, made a burning desire shoot through you, but it also made you feel incredibly out of your depth.
“Are you alright, Pickle?” he asked, brows furrowed in concern as he watched you shift restlessly. “Do you want to stop?” He raised his hand to your cheek, brushing strands of hair from your face. 
“No, just—” you answered immediately, gaze flickering from his cock to his eyes. “I don’t really know what to do.”
Isaac’s gaze softened, and he broke into a gentle smile, cupping your cheek as he leaned down to kiss you. “That’s alright, I’ll guide you through it.”
He began by peppering kisses across your chest, making you sigh and ache for his touch to give you even more pleasure. Isaac took his time, working you up until you were panting.
“How would you like it?” he asked, caressing your stomach. His cock was leaking, painfully hard, and yearning to be touched. “On your back? On your stomach?”
“I—” you hesitated, the pictures of you spread out before him flashing through your mind. How would it feel to have him plunging inside you from behind, ass up with your head buried in the pillows? How would he look when he came above you, caressing your chest and leaning down to kiss you when you came undone? “On my back.”
With a low chuckle, Isaac positioned himself between your legs. “Good. That means I can see you,” he said, brushing your entrance with his cock. “I’m going to put it in now, alright?”
“Fuck,” you breathed, grabbing the sheets to prepare yourself. “Go slow, please.” 
There was a twinge of uncertainty in your voice, and Isaac caught onto it immediately. “We can stop anytime,” he said, moving a finger under your chin to make you look up at him. No matter how aroused he was, his attentiveness never wavered, and his heart ached at the thought that he had somehow made you uncomfortable. 
“No, please,” you answered, moving your hands over his chest, trailing them over his stomach and thighs before they came to rest against his hips, pulling him towards you to press his hard cock against your hole again. “I want to, I do. Just nervous. Go ahead, please.”
“Are you sure?”
“Isaac, please.” 
He hummed, leaning down to kiss you and swallow your moan as his tip pushed inside you. Neither of you moved as you struggled to take him in, walls clenching around his cock as it stretched you out.
Isaac was panting as much as you, nearly coming undone at simply being inside you, feeling your heat around his most sensitive part. 
Slowly, you rolled your hips to push him in further, taking more of his cock. “You— you can move now, Isaac,” you breathed, your hands finding his as he pushed deeper, squeezing them tightly when he filled you to the brim. 
When he was buried to the hilt, he started thrusting slowly, raising your hands to his lips to kiss them. “I love you,” he murmured against them, keeping his gaze on your face. Your eyes were shut, brow furrowed in pleasure. “You’re doing so well, taking me so well.”
You could only moan, squeezing his hand as he picked up the pace. Your breath stuttered when he changed the angle, pinning your hands down on either side of your head as he leaned over you, his face inches from yours. 
The new position allowed his cock to push deeper, and you could feel the pleasure quickly rising as he snapped his hips with growing intensity. Isaac kissed you, swallowing your whines and whimpers as his tongue explored your mouth, never faltering in his pace. 
Your back arched suddenly, Isaac reaching a spot inside you that made you tremble. 
“There?” he asked huskily, groaning as he struggled to keep his rhythm, “That felt good, yeah? Think you can come yet?” The broken moan coming from your lips as he hit that spot again and again, was answer enough. 
You came with a cry, gripping Isaac’s hands tightly. He came soon after with you clenching around him, squeezing his cock dry. 
With a soft groan, he rolled off of you, gathering you in his arms as you both caught your breath. “How do you feel?” he asked, brushing a hand through your hair while you nuzzled into his chest.
“Sleepy,” you said, fighting against the gentle exhaustion trying to pull you under. 
Isaac chuckled, placing a kiss against the top of your head. “It’s alright, take your time. I’ll run a bath in a minute.”

protective ex-husband!simon, implied violence/break-in *gender neutral version*
“i know! and that’s when i told her-“ you paused, your hand halfway to the keys at the bottom of your backpack. your apartment door was open, a menacing sliver of darkness awaiting you. “hey, i’m going to have to call you back.” you ended the call with your friend, slowly backing away from your door. shit. you knew you locked the door when you left for work, and no one else had a copy of your key. a creeping sensation came over you, like someone was watching from within. slowly, you retreated, taking the elevator down to your apartment’s lobby as the anxiety crawled through your body. you wracked your brain, wondering if you should call the police. wondering if they would even believe you. there was only one call to make.
“come on, pick up.” you tapped your foot impatiently as your ex husband took forever to answer the phone. it was all you could do to not think about your home being violated, about a potential stalker or date gone wrong.
“‘ello?”
“si- simon, it’s me.”
“i know, love. that’s why i picked up.” you let out a quiet sob of relief at his voice, the bottle on your emotions starting to leak.
“what’s wrong?” his voice changed, immediately hearing your silent tears. he could always read you too well. “i don’t want to bother you but” you hiccupped. shit. “but my apartment door was open and i’m pretty sure i closed it, i usually do. i don’t know if im being silly but now im in the lobby and im just scared, simon.” there was a fumbling sound, the echoes of simon zipping up his jacket and pulling on his shoes.
“go to that cafe across the street, dove. go get yourself one of those overpriced hot chocolates. i’ll be there in 15.”
9 minutes later, your shaking hands were tapping random patterns on the cafe table, unable to raise your drink to your mouth without spilling it. your eyes were locked onto the wood grain, counting lines to distract yourself.
suddenly, a gloved hand covered yours. you looked up and there he was, your ghost in all his glory. you forgot everything for a second, forgot the past arguments and the strained silences, and flung yourself into his arms. you breathed in his comforting scent of pinewood that masked his cigarettes, a cologne you got him four years ago for christmas. your face was wet, and as he pulled you back to check you for injuries, his thumb brushed a stray tear away from your face. you didn’t even realize you were crying.
“‘s okay, baby. i’m here now. give me your keys.” you fumbled for your keys, backpack strap sliding off your shoulder as your hands shook too much to keep it balanced. simon caught it gracefully, finding your keys in the same pocket you always kept them. “stay here. i’ll be back.” you nodded instinctively. only when you saw his figure retreat to your apartment building, clothed in all black like a figure of death, you realized you hadn’t told him your new apartment number.
twenty minutes passed. simon’s presence had worked like medicine as your heart rate has now dropped back down to normal, your hands stable enough to finish your drink. any other person would be worried for simon’s safety, but you knew the only person you should be concerned for was your intruder.
“you’re stayin’ with me tonight.” he was back, looking exactly the same. he wasn’t even winded. “thank you simon, but don’t be ridiculous. i can get a hotel. you live so far from my work anyways.” he approached you, crowding into your space as he leaned over you, even with a cafe table in between. “consider it payment then.” he tilted your chin up with his left hand as he hid his other one, covered with blood, in his pocket. “one way or another, you’re in my bed tonight, dove.” you gulped at that. “and i’ve got riley in the car. you wouldn’t abandon him, would you?” of course he had gotten your cat when he checked out your apartment. riley hated men, but never simon. cheeky bastard.
“you win.”
fast forward a couple of hours and you were getting ready for bed at simon’s, belly full from the meal he had made you. riley made himself at home on the living room couch, of course. “he’s in my spot.” you gestured to your cat on the couch. “wha’ d’ya mean?” your husband simon was now in sweats and sweats only, clean from the shower he had after you both got home back to his place. you pretended not to see him methodically wash blood out of his fingernails, reasoning quite easily with yourself that it was for a good cause.
“my couch for tonight.” simon moved toward you and you avoided his eyes, trying not to stare at how beautiful he still was. muscular but thick, torso adorned with scars you used to trace on sunday mornings when you both stayed in bed until the afternoon. he gripped your chin, forcing you to make eye contact. “told’ya you were in my bed tonight, dovie.” you swallowed and he watched your throat move, memories of you swallowing something else countless times rising to the surface.
“don’t be silly, simon. that would cross a line.”
“what line?” his arms were crossed now, drawing your attention to an unfamiliar tattoo right above his heart. a small dove.
“we’re not together anymore, simon.”
“you’re still mine.”
silence. he was always like this, pushing you until you broke. he was unwilling to compromise, even on the smallest of issues. usually you’d fight him, spit fire until you lost your voice. tonight though, you were reminded of how he was the only person you were able to call, the only one committing dark sins without asking, all for your safety. instead, you threw your hands up and walked into his bedroom, mechanically stripping as you put on one of his shirts and a pair of shorts. you felt his eyes on you, burning a hole through the fabric. you were tired, so tired of this push and pull.
“what.” you whipped around, all venom. his eyes were impossibly soft, holding yours with a peaceful caress. “you’re as beautiful as the day i lost you.” your fire went out at that. “you’re just trying to get me naked.” you mumbled, looking down as you fidgeted with the hem of his shirt. you watched as his body came into view, pressing your forehead against his bare skin.
“could see you in a thousand layers and you’d still be the most beautiful person i’ve ever seen, dove.” ever so slowly, your hands crept up his body to grab his shoulders and neck. he picked you up with ease, turning the lights off and tucking you both in bed. “when did you get the tattoo?” you asked in the dark.
“3 months and 12 days ago.” what would have been your 3rd year of marriage, your anniversary. you lowered your head and gave him a kiss right where the tattoo was. “can we talk about it in the morning?” you snuggled into him, that familiar scent calming you once again. “always, dove.” he kissed your forehead, smiling in the dark.
someone requested gender neutral so i hope i did you justice! i consider dove, love, lovie, and baby to be gn so i didn’t change them if you were wondering

i don’t even mind
Pairing: Iwaizumi Hajime x Reader
Word count: 0.5k
“When it comes to feelings for you, Iwaizumi Hajime is an immovable force.”
Tumblr media
You’re well aware of the metaphorical dance you and Iwaizumi Hajime have going on. One step forward, two steps back. Repeat.
It’s a seemingly never ending performance of two could-be lovers that would have been easy to end if it weren’t for you.
Because unlike you, Iwaizumi Hajime is certain about his feelings for you. He’s straightforward, vocal, genuine and consistent. If he says he likes you, he leaves no space for you to doubt him.
And to you, it’s scary. It’s scary because of how easy it is to fall for him.
He’s nice. He gets along with everyone he meets. He’s favored even by your friends.
He’s driven. He makes sure that he sees through whatever he puts his mind into to the end.
And most importantly, he’s undemanding. He doesn’t try to control you or impose anything on you. He lets you be your own person, making your own decisions — including loving him.
He’s attractive in more ways than one.
Scratch that.
He’s ideal in more ways than one.
And even without meaning to, this fact alone weeds out all the jerks who start to take a liking to you. Because Hajime is hard to compete with. When it comes to feelings for you, he’s an immovable force.
And because he’s so ideal, it scares you because you’re just you.
Average.
Ordinary.
Regular.
Mediocre.
There are good days when you think you could probably deserve Hajime. And so you take a step towards him, lessening the imaginary gap that separates the two of you.
However, there are bad days that you feel too dull, too pale in contrast to his bright and scintillating personality. And the only logical thing that you could think of is to run away from him.
You suppose he’s bound to get tired someday — of the constant push and pull, of the endless cycle of reassurances. But he doesn’t.
“There’s no need to rush,” Hajime comforts you as you cry into his arms. “You don’t have to give me an answer right away.”
“But you’ve been waiting for me for so long,” you sob.
“I don’t even mind.”
“I don’t like that it seems like I’m leading you on,” you stare directly into his eyes, tears streaming down your face.
“Are you?” He asks meekly and looks away.
“What?”
“Are you leading me on?”
“I don’t think so. I know I have feelings for you, but…”
“Then that’s a good enough answer for me,” he smiles.
He watches as your lips quiver, and your eyes continue to be lined by another wave of unshed tears, and he thinks it just might be impossible for his heart to flutter but also break at the same time.
Underneath the moonlight, he still thinks you’re more perfect than anyone else, even with your tear-streaked face.
But it also hurts him that you’re hurting. It pains him to know you’re in an internal battle with yourself.
And so he says what he always says, “I don’t even mind, baby. I’ll wait for you until you’re ready.”
You wrap your arms around him and let yourself melt into him.
He strokes your back gently, and he whispers, “We don’t have to rush. I just want to cherish you. Tell me…. do you mind?”
When he feels the lone, tender kiss on his neck, he knows your answer.
Tumblr media
if this seems familiar, it’s originally posted in my main so yeah anyway, feedback and reblogs are appreciated!

Closure part two
Tumblr media
“I honestly can’t even believe Y/N acted that way, I mean do you think I’m a bad person Jack?” Winnie pouted and leaned into Jack’s embrace.
Jack wasn’t exactly sure what even happened everything happened so quickly. One minute the two of you were shopping around and having fun and the next minute you were crying and arguing with him.
Last night
“What’s your issue baby? I had to stop everything mid performance because you’re causing a scene.”
“I’m causing a scene? Are you honestly that stupid Jack.” He was taken back by your response. “What are you on about?” You scoffed and rolled your eyes you couldn’t believe he was acting so clueless right now.
“Winnie!! She’s been trying to get at you for the longest why do you think I avoid hanging out with her?! She literally wants you Jack.” His face scrunched up in confusion.
“Winnie is just a friend, that’s it and that’s all she doesn’t want me nor do I want her.” You believed Jack you knew he’d never leave you but one thing about Winnie she was going to make sure she got her way.
“I don’t know Jack I just can’t be around you while she’s here.”
“What are you saying baby?” You bit your lip nervously. “I think it’s best I just sit the Grammy’s out, I don’t feel comfortable being around Winnie and her posy.”
“What? You have to come you’re my plus one on the red carpet baby and you’re supposed to be sitting at the table with Urban and Me.”
“Give Winnie my spot I’m sure she’ll be more then thrilled.” Jack couldn’t believe you right now he felt as if you were being selfish and just filled with so much envy and jealousy.
“Are you kidding me baby? We’ve been planning this day since November of last year and now you wanna just pull out last minute. I can’t stand you sometimes Y/N all you have to do is put aside your one sided differences with Winnie for one more night but you can’t even do that.”
“One sided differences? I didn’t have an issue with Winnie till she created an issue what don’t you get or understand by that. Honestly never mind I’m leaving.”
You weren’t about to be talking to someone who was so one sided.
“Yeah I think it’s best you go.” Jack tapped the Suv letting the drive know that he was good to go. You rolled up the window and Jack watched you as you did, you face stayed cold you weren’t about to let him see you cry.
Once the driver finally pulled off you finally broke down and let all your emotions free. You tossed your phone to the side after seeing that picture Winnie posted of Jack and her. If she wanted Jack so bad so be it you weren’t about to stress yourself over it anymore.
Flashback over
“I don’t think you’re a bad person Winnie, Y/N has been going through a lot lately that’s all.”
Winnie and Jack were on the way back to Resort World, it was one of the newest hotels in Vegas you were all staying in.
Jack wasn’t sure what was going to happen once he got inside and to the room, he figured you’d be upset at him still but hopefully would’ve let it go, he wanted to apologize because he knew what he said was wrong and was spoken out of anger.
Once the finally arrived back to the hotel he made his way up to your shared room, his face scrunched up in confusion when he didn’t see you or any of your things.
“Babe? You in here.” He searched around the room for a bit till he saw a letter laid on his side of the bed from you.
I’ll be staying in Neelam’s room tonight and tomorrow night I think we both need some space apart for a bit.
He flopped onto the bed and sighed dramatically he didn’t even understand how tonight turned out like this he could’ve sworn everything was going good.
“So what’s going on with Jack and You?”
You we’re now laying in bed with Neelam the argument you had earlier with Jack was playing in your mind like an endless scene, you hated the way you embarrassed yourself in front of everyone.
“Honestly I’m not sure Neelam I’m not going to be quick to forgive him especially after everything he said.”
His words hurt especially when he was talking about you pushing every single friend you had away. You always pushed your friends away because of Jack. He had a busy schedule and you didn’t so you were always on the road with him and pushing your friends away was the only option and the only way from keeping you from feeling as if you were being left out from things going on back home.
For him to turn that back around and throw it in your face had hurt you and he knew the reason why you pushed them away so why use that against you.
“Are you really not attending the Grammy’s tomorrow?” You weren’t even sure anymore the last thing you wanted to do was create anymore drama. “I don’t know Neelam I think it’s best I stay here and sit this one out.”
“Are you sure Y/N? Tomorrow was supposed to be a special night for all of us and you were so excited to go.” “I don’t know Neelam I’ll just see how I feel in the morning, let’s just get some sleep for now.”
You never did get any sleep that night you kept tossing and turning the entire night. You hated the way Winnie kept acting as if she was the victim but it’s what she did best, as for Jack well you hated the way he completely disregarded your feelings.
Picking up your phone you saw the time was 11pm you figured Jack just might be up. You decided to put on your big girl panties and go over and talk things out.
You closed Neelam’s door quietly before sneaking down the hall to Jack’s room, taking out the spare key card you quickly unlocked the door before going in.
You turned on the flashlight on your phone and your eyebrows furrowed together seeing the scene in front of you. There laid Jack on his side of the bed but with Winnie laying next to him on his bare chest, her hand resting a bit to low on his stomach.
“So it’s like that?” You whispered to yourself, tears started pooling your eyes before you swiftly turned around and left.
Maybe you were jumping to conclusions way too quickly there was no way Jack would actually go and cheat on you or would he? You truly didn’t get any sleep once you made it back to Neelam’s room you were trying to process and make excuses for what you just saw.
The next day
“Y/N, wake up.” You groaned and shoved away whoever was shaking you.
“Y/N you have to get up.” “No I’m tired let me sleep a bit more.” Urban laughed but shook you some more.
“Even though I wouldn’t mind if you slept in more your makeup artist would so you need to get up.”
“My makeup artist?” You weren’t sure what Urban was talking about. “For the Grammy’s Jack told them you’d be in here.”
“I’m not going Urban so just tell them I’m sorry but no makeup will be getting done today.”
“What? Why aren’t you going I thought the two of you made up.” You scoffed as you got up and got a bottle of water. “Made up? He came to the Suv and basically said everything I was feeling was one sided and basically called me crazy for believing that Winnie wanted to date him.”
You weren’t even going to bring up seeing Winnie and Jack together in bed. “Well I feel like you should attend the Grammy’s still.”
“Why Urban? Just to see Winnie all over Jack I think I’ll pass on that one.” Urban sighed he hated that you were going through this he just wanted everyone to get along.
“No to come and support everyone else Jack isn’t the only one who worked hard to get here, we need to celebrate tonight as a team even if you aren’t talking to Jack right now please just come and support everyone else.” Urban always had a way of making things more sentimental when it was needed of course.
“Fine I guess I’ll go but you owe me some taco bell after the show.” You laughed “Sounds like a deal to me now come on let’s go get something to eat.”
You tossed on some one of Urban’s hoodies and a pair of your sweats before following him downstairs to the buffet and of course you ran into Winnie and Jack.
“Well good morning Urban and Y/N.” Winnie greeted the two of you in her high pitched voice, you could honestly tell she was putting on an act in front of Jack.
“Good morning Winnie and Jack.” You greeted them both, she wasn’t the only one who was able to put on an act.
“Look Y/N I just want you to know that I forgive you, I know you’ve been a bit stressed lately and last night was just one of your many outbursts due to stress I’m sure.” You so badly wanted to hurt her and drag her across the hotel lobby but you weren’t about to give her that satisfaction.
“Well I wasn’t stressed I just got a bit overwhelmed due to all of the fake energy certain people brought last night.” You laughed making her give you a tight smile.
“Well as long as you’re feeling better now?” “I’m feeling much better thank you for asking.” She rolled her eyes before heading over to one of the tables to sit down and eat leaving only Jack, Urban and You.
“You’re wearing Urban’s sweater I see.” You looked down and shrugged your shoulders you didn’t even notice this was Urban’s sweater.
“I guess I am.” Urban stood there awkwardly not really sure what to do. “Well I’ll meet you at one of the tables Y/N.” Before you could stop him from leaving Urban was gone.
“What do you want Jack? Haven’t you said or should I say do enough last night.” You tossed some eggs and bacon your plate as you browsed the other options.
“What are you talking about?” “Oh now you wanna play dumb like I didn’t see what Winnie and you were doing last night.” You pushed past him and went to serve yourself, Jack obviously followed you.
“What do you mean you saw Winnie and me? Saw us where.” “Why are you playing dumb right now Jack.” “I’m not playing dumb I really don’t understand what you’re talking about.”
Slamming the lid shut to the fruit you finally turned to face Jack. “You know every time we argue I don’t result in sleeping with somebody that isn’t you.” You stated coldly before walking away.
Jack stood there not really sure what to do or why you were mad at him now, all he wanted was to make things better with you but he guessed that wasn’t happening.
“I don’t know I feel like my outfit is doing a bit too much don’t you think?”
Looking yourself over in the mirror you were a bit iffy on the outfit Neelam picked out. It was an all black sheer givenchy dress, you loved how the dress made all your curves pop out but you suddenly started to feel insecure.
“Are you kidding me? You look absolutely beautiful in it and you’re wearing it I don’t wanna hear it.” Whatever Neelam said goes you sighed, not really having much of a choice here you just prayed you’d look good and that tonight would end well.
The ride there was more than awkward nobody really spoke besides Ace and Urban other than that everyone else really stayed to themselves.
Jack had to admit you looked gorgeous you always did to him but the way the dress was doing wonders on you had him ready to take you right then and there but he forgot the two of you weren’t on speaking terms.
The minute you stepped out of the Suv paparazzi was of course in your face.
“Jack over here!!” “Jack, Jack are you dating Winnie now?!” “Y/N did Jack and you breakup.” “Winnie is it true you’re a backstabbing man stealer?”
Winnie’s face scrunched up in anger while Urban and You both giggled. “Well they aren’t wrong about that last question.” Urban joked. “I agree.”
Jack couldn’t help but to let his jealously get the best of him when watching Urban and You giggling the entire time during a few of his interviews. You’d both sneak off to the side and start laughing about something Urban either said or something on his phone.
His jaw tightened as Urban’s hand laid on your lower back.
“You know I honestly feel like she isn’t good for you Jack I mean look at her over there all giggling with Urban if I didn’t know any better I’d think she was with him.” Winnie told Jack.
“She’s doing it on purpose I guess this morning she came up to me and said I was sleeping with you? I don’t even know what she’s talking about.”
Jack didn’t know what you were talking about but Winnie did, last night when he was sleeping she crept into his room and laid down with him. She even heard you come into the room.
“I’m not sure what she’s talking about either Jack but let’s not even focus on the two of them let’s focus on tonight and the fact that you’re performing at the Grammy’s.
“You’re right Winnie.” “I know I am.” She laughed, her laughter caught you attention.
“What are they laughing about?” “Beats me but don’t let them get under your skin it isn’t worth it.” Ace reassured you.
After all of Jack’s interviews you all headed inside, at the table sat Jack, Winnie, Lil Nas X and a few other artist, you sat at the table behind Jack with Urban and Neelam and The Homies.
You where a bit starstruck being in a room filled with so many A-list celebrities.
“You’re Y/N right?” Snapping out of your daze you were greeted by Drake. “Drake! You’re Drake?!” Drake laughed and nodded his head. “Well I sure hope I was Drake but I just came over to say you look absolutely stunning tonight.” He sent you a little wink before going back to his table.
“I can’t believe Drake said I looked good and winked at me.” You squealed. “Not too much now we all know Drake was winking at me.” Ace joked. “You like men now?” 2fo asked him, “I mean if that’s the only attention I can get.” Ace defended himself which earned him a few slaps to the head by everyone.
“Now she’s taking compliments from other men? That’s a bit bizarre to me.” Winnie told Jack who nodded his head in agreement. “It is what it is Winnie, as long as I have you I don’t need anybody else.”
After watching a few other artist performing it was finally Jack’s turn.
“Ladies and gentlemen I’d like to welcome on the stage, Jack Harlow.” Olivia cheered as well as everyone else.
Jack opened up the show with Poison and ended up going into I got a shot and ended it with Churchills Down.
You were all backstage when he got done performing but just as he was about to make it on stage Winnie ran on the stage. “Hold on Jack before you go back on stage we have a little something for you.” She said in a teasing tone.
“What’s she doing now?” You asked. “I’m not sure, is this even apart of the show?” Ace asked. You all walked towards the side of the stage watching what was about to happen.
“We’d like to present you this award for best new artist and best new breakout artist it was a little surprise award for you.”
“Wait did he just win two Grammy’s?!” Clay asked. “Uh I think he just did.” Drama said.
“What? I just won two Grammy’s.” Jack said into the mic making everyone laugh. “Yes you did and sorry to just throw this on you mid performance but do you have a little speech?” Winnie laughed.
“Uh well I really wouldn’t be here without my fans or my family but most importantly I wouldn’t be here without God, I wanna thank my team Neelam, Ace, Clay, Drama, 2fo and so many more for pushing me to be the best version of myself and reminding me to never give up on myself.”
The audience cheered again. “Is there anybody else you want to thank?” “You, thank you Winnie for always pushing me as well you’re truly the best friend anybody can ask for and I thank you for that Winnie.” The audience aww’d at Jack’s speech.
Meanwhile you were backstage tears threatening to leave your eyes. “Are you okay Y/N?” Ace rubbed your back and you shook your head no. “He didn’t mention me he didn’t even thank me but he can thank her.”
“I’m not sure what’s been going on with you two but I’ll talk to him if you want Y/N.” Drama reassured you but there wasn’t much he was able to do anymore.
“Don’t bother Drama clearly Jack picked who he wanted to be with and it wasn’t me.” You cried out. “I think it’s best I go home.”
“Home? Like back to Kentucky home?” “Yeah I can’t stand being here another minute.” Urban frowned slightly. “You want me to come with you? I’m ready to dip as well.” “I’d appreciate it.”
Once Jack got backstage he was greeted by only Neelam, he looked around confused. “Where is everyone?” “They all went back home.”
“What? For what the show isn’t even over yet and I just won two Grammy’s” Neelam gave him a half smile. “I’m proud of you Jack but lately you’ve been an ass to Y/N and I haven’t been the only one that’s noticed that clearly.”
“Y/N is the issue not me and certainly not Winnie.” He defended himself. “Are you sure about that? If she wasn’t the issue then how come nobody is here.” Jack looked around the room and maybe Neelam was right.
“Fix things before things get even worse than they already have. I’ll see you back out there in a few minutes.” This was supposed to be one of Jack’s biggest nights but instead it was one of his worse nights.

Warnings: Prostitution

Kinktober masterlist
This was a new thing for you, jt wasn’t work that was well received by others, but it paid your bills. When people asked what you did for a living your answer was always IT and you made sure that you missed out the fact that people would pay to spend the night with you. And now here you stand in probably the nicest building you’ve seen in an elevator far too extravagant to be in an apartment complex. The man in question your appointment was with a new client, he had sent a healthy deposit into your account and a promise of more money after the evening had ended. It was enough to convince you to come to his place, you normally have your own space for these kinds of meetings but he insisted on it, and with your college funds still needing to be paid you weren’t in the position to decline.
You stood outside his door, in your leather boots, fishnet stockings black denim skirt and a white t-shirt. Your hair was curled so its dark waves curled around your neck giving your head more of a highlight making the bright red lipstick really pop. You knocked on the door and heard the sounds of footsteps come towards the door. As the door opened you were greeted by a handsome man, clean shaven with bright blue eyes. His hair was dark with a hint of curls to them, his temples had silver streaks running through them. He was fairly toned with his chest pressing against his his shirt that was neatly tucked into his black jeans.
“You must be y/n.” He smiled opening the door, giving you room to walk in.
“And you must be Stephen.” You smiled as you walked into the apartment. It was huge and spacious, the kitchen taking up most of the corner, though it looked mostly unused, the view of the city was immaculate with a black grand piano placed behind the grey sofa in the living room, a large bookshelf replacing where a TV would normally go. The shelves filled with Shakespeare and human physiology books.
“Not much of a Tv person.” He laughed “take a seat” he gestured to the sofa. “Can I get you a drink?”
“Yeah sure bourbon if you have any” you smiled sitting comfortably on the couch as he grabbed to glasses.
“I’ll send over the rest of the money later.” He said sitting on the sofa, handing you the drink.
“So Mr Strange, how may I assist you this evening?” You say sipping your drink
“It's Doctor, Doctor Strange and it depends. I gave you more than enough for the full service.” He leaned back into his chair, his eyes scanning your body.
“Well then, Doctor, the evening is yours to plan, I only ask that you wear protection. You must do this often if you know what you want.” You begin to grow more comfortable and twirl your fingers through your hair.
“Occasionally, protection is fine. I can’t afford any health issues. It wouldn't look good on my reputation.” He raised his brow.
“Don't want to give the hospital receptionist an STD?” You joke
“How did you know?” He put his glass on the table. You nodded your head to the black panties stuffed down the side of the couch
“She must have forgotten something.” You put your drink down and straddled his waist, trailing your fingers across his collarbone. His hands slides to your waist where he played with the fat of your ass. 
“You’re a smart one aren’t you.” He quirked as you began rocking into his legs.
“I like to make men think they have to work for me.” Your arms crossed around his neck and you leaned in close to his lips leaving only a small gap. You could feel his hardness pressing your cunt and you began to exhale with pressure.
“Is that what you like? You want us to feel like we deserve you, I paid for you didn’t I?” He smirked at the sight of you enjoying yourself, and began to moan. He grabbed your lips with his hand and pulled you closer. “Don’t go faking it on me.” He said with a dark tone, you smiled and crashed your lips to his. 
“Never.” You smiled, he stood up and you wrapped your legs around his waist as you continued to kiss. He kicked open a door and flopped you onto a large bed. He pulled off your t-shirt smiling at the fact you weren’t wearing a bra. His mouth moved from your lips to your chest, his tongue swirling around your nipple until it peaked with hardness before moving onto the other.
“Are you going to let me fuck your throat?” He lifted his head off your chest and you nodded. He got off the bed and you stood on your knees kissing him, helping him to remove his shirt. It dropped to the floor and then you moved to his jeans, pulling them down with his boxers. Your eyes widened at his thick cock bouncing up to his abdomen, it was long and thick and you knew this evening was going to be worthwhile. You take him in your hands and his breath hitches at the sensation, you leave a trail of light kisses along his length before taking him all in. You swallow as much of him down but he fills your mouth easily, he angles himself and begins to gently thrust allowing you to get used to the sensation. “Did i tell you how pretty your mouth looks when i fuck it.” He moans holding onto your head and keeping your hair out of your face you moaned as he contined you fuck your mouth, you could feel he was close, but judging by his relentless you knew he’d be able to do more than one round. “Shit baby, your mouth is so good. Im gonna- gon- fuck.” White ropes flooded down your throat and he held your mouth there making sure you swallowed every last drop. You pulled away and left a trail of saliva still connecting you.
“Would you like to rest a little.” You as he wipes your mouth.
“Hell no” he laughs “gonna make you feel good baby.” He laid you on the bed and began to remove your skirt and stockings. He kissed your pelvis lightly, your stomach rising and falling with anticipation, it was very rare any man made sure to touch you during your visits. His tongue swiped through your folds settling with circular motions around your clit.
“Yes! Shit thats good.” You moaned loudly pushing your fingers through his hair pushing his face deeper. You could feel a pulse making its way to your clit. He added to the sensation with two fingers, pumping them in and out of your hole.
“God you taste so good, want you to cum on my mouth baby, you think you can do that for me?” He asked, increasing his motion. 
“Y-yes.” Your words stuttered and you clenched around his fingers
“Thats it, good girl, let loose” he moved his tongue down to you cunt and began fucking your hole, you came into his mouth like he did to you. “Taste so good.” He muttered licking up your juices.
“Stephen?” You looked at him with desperation 
“Yes?” A smile crept to the corner of his mouth
“Fuck me.” You begged 
“Why else would you be here?”' He stepped away and got a condom from his drawer and put it on. You bit your lip and watched as he climbed on top of you. He lined himself up and pushed in with one strong thrust, he hit that spot instantly, you could already feel your second orgasm building as he hit his hips into yours, you wrapped your arms around his back digging your nails in hard enough to cause your knuckles to turn white. “God your such a good girl for me, letting me fuck you like this.” He groaned as sweat began to form in the corner of his brow.
“Stephen, don’t stop, I'm so close.” You cried out as he found a way to hit that spot even harder, you came again for a second time, you could tell he was close. He stopped being able to form sentences and you could feel the way he pulsed inside you and finally he let loose groaning as he came. 
“Shit!” He collapsed onto you “God i’m gonna pay you double”
“Its free” you panted
“What?” He looked up at you
“If i can see you again it's free.”

Touches
Author: @crowleysgirl67
Word Count: 2256
Parings/Characters: Bucky x Reader (Eventual), Avengers team, Nat x Steve, 
Warnings: AU ish i guess, show warnings, idk 
A/N: Thanks for reading!  
Steve had brought Bucky to the tower. It was awkward as you all stood there as he introduced him and Bucky kept avoiding looking anyone in the eye. You were tired of the awkwardness so you stepped forward.
“I’m (Y/N). It’s a pleasure to meet you Sargent Barnes. I hope we can all make you feel welcome and comfortable here.” you extended your hand to him as you emphasized the all as you gave Tony a look. He wasn’t sure about him and was still pissed about the Winter Soldier killing his parents. 
He grumbled under his breath but stayed silent. 
“(Y/N) your glov…” Nat started but it was too late as Bucky took your hand in a firm shake as he introduced himself. You sucked in a deep breath as his memories filled your head and you dropped to your knees. You’d seen some horrible shit in people's memories before but none had made you drop to your knees in agony the way Bucky's memories were.
“What’s happening? What’d I do?” Bucky asked, concerned he’d done something wrong.
“She has powers, she can know everything about a person just by skin to skin contact. There’s more but no one knows the extent of them.” Steve replied grimly. He’d known whatever happened to his best friend had been bad but he was unaware of just how bad it was. He’d seen you work before, brought in when the bad guys weren’t giving up information, or they were withholding more than what little they were giving up. Some made you grimace but nothing had you on the floor like you were now.
Bucky looked taken aback and horrified. Steve pulled him back away from you as Nat barked orders for everyone to give you breathing room. It was several minutes before you were able to regain composure. 
“(Y/N) are you alright?” Nat asked, kneeling besides you.
“Yeah. Yeah I’m ok.” you rasp as you make your way to standing up. 
Nat took hold of your elbow and helped you up. You shot her a grateful smile as you felt drained and not as steady on your feet. 
“What the hell was that?” Tony demands “That’s never happened before.”
“I don’t have enough energy to deal with this right now. We can discuss it later.” you brushed his question off.
Tony looked like he wanted to argue but he knew better. “Fine. But you’re going to the med bay to get checked out.” The two of you stared at each other.  
“Ugh, fine but only because I’m too tired for this shit.” you relented.
***
Steve showed Bucky around the compound and the room he’d be staying in.
“I’ll let you get settled. My room is down the next hall if you need me.” Steve pats him on the back. 
“Thanks,” he replied, stepping into the room. It was a room, a bed with a bathroom attached and some closet space. A tv hung on the wall across from the bed. He left the door open as he pushed further into the room. He flicked the bathroom light on and looked around. It was a nice bathroom with a shower and a separate freestanding tub. He turned the light out and went back into the main part of the room, footsteps from the hall catching his attention. 
Thinking it was Steve again he stepped out of the room and just about into you. 
“Sorry.” he said, taking a step back.
“Not your fault.” you replied. “I should watch where I’m going. I’m not used to people in this hall.”
He looked you over before replying. You seemed better than you had been earlier. “What do you mean?”
“My rooms the next one over. Nobody else is in this hall. Well I guess now you are.” 
He gives you a puzzled look, “Why hasn’t anyone else been here?”
“Mostly cuz Tony is worried my powers could do something. While I mostly have control they can still be unpredictable even to me. He doesn’t say anything to me but I can feel his hesitation and see his thoughts.” you head toward your room as Bucky follows.
“What is it that you can do exactly? If you don’t mind me asking. Steve said you get people's memories by skin contact.” He was curious, naturally. All the shit he’d been through, things he’d never wish on another person had been thrown onto you.
You beckoned him in as he hesitated in your doorway. He was still hesitant but stepped further into the room as you sat on the bench at the foot of your bed to take off your shoes. 
“Have a seat.” you gestured to the chair in the corner. “What do you want to know?”
He took a seat, “The memories, do you get all of them?”
“Yes, any memories a person has I get with a touch. Their thoughts, feelings, things like that. In rare cases if the emotions are intense enough I will in essence experience what they went through.”
“Did you… Were mine one of those times?” he licked his lips. 
“Yes.” you weren’t going to lie to him. “But don’t feel bad. You didn’t know what was going to happen. I should have been more careful about having my gloves on with someone new around.”
“I’m sorry.” He felt guilty in a way, like sure it wasn’t his fault but it was still the fucked up shit in his head.
“It isn’t your fault James.” you say softly. 
He swallowed and ignored the rush of feeling that came with the sound of his name from your lips, “Is it contact via your hands only or does any skin contact trigger you?”
“Any. It's why I don't wear clothing that reveals skin. Long sleeves only if I'm out in public.” 
“What makes here so different?” he asked, noting you in a tank top and leggings. 
“Prolonged contact with everyone. Once I've touched a person I already have everything about them. If I touch them again even accidentally the only new information I receive is their memories, thoughts, feelings etc.. from between the last time I touched them and the new touch. Enough exposure and I don’t need touch to be in tune with them. I sense their feelings and can, if I focus, see their thoughts without touching them.”
“So downstairs earlier, staring with Stark. You were assessing him?” Bucky took an educated guess based on what you’ve told him so far.
You let out a surprised laugh, “Yeah, yeah I guess I was.”
***
Over the next few months you formed a close relationship with Bucky. He trusted you because you knew the truth about what happened to him, albeit in an unexpected manner. You hadn’t had skin contact again since the first time, so his rising crush on you had seemed to escape your freaky sense gaze. 
“Barnes.” Tony greeted as he walked into the common area. “Have you seen (Y/N)?”
“Stark.” he returned the greeting. “No I haven’t she said something about helping Nat with some project, I don’t know.”
“If you see her let her know I need to see her.” he walked away and Bucky shook his head. You had an odd relationship with Stark and he was never sure what to make of it. You didn’t seem to be in a romantic relationship, and if you were it wasn’t obvious. If he was honest he really didn’t want to think about the possibility of you being in a romantic relationship if it wasn’t with him. He knew the rabbit hole he would go in with thoughts like that so he got up to go in search of you. He tried the usual haunts, your bedroom, the gym. The lab was an obvious no since Stark was looking for you and that’s where he usually was. 
Taking a chance that maybe Steve would know where you were he went down the hall where his bedroom along with Nats was. Giggling from Natashas room had him skipping Steves and making his way down to hers. 
“That’s actually pretty cool. When did these pop up?” It was Nat speaking, the cracked door was enough for him to hear the conversation clearly.
“They’ve been here awhile. I just hadn’t had any real reason to try to strengthen them.” this time it was you who spoke.
“That reason wouldn’t happen to be a tall hunk of a man would it?” Nat teased. Bucky heard a thump and a muffled “Hey” from Natasha. 
“Shut up Nat.” 
“Fine, but only if you show me more of that. Can you do it for others?”
“I don’t know. I can try. Where’s Steve? I’m sure he’ll let me use him as a guinea pig.”
“Whoa no wait come back!” Nat exclaimed.  
The door to the room flung open as your giggling figure ran out and straight into Bucky. 
“Oof,” you grunted and wrapped your hands around strong biceps as you caught yourself. 
“Shit (Y/N)! Are you alright?” He put his hands on your hips to steady you. 
“I’m fine. What are you doing out here?” 
“Looking for you. Stark wants to see you.” 
“He can wait. Where’s Steve? I wanna show him something cool with Nat.” you grin up at him, excitedly. 
“Don’t you dare (Y/N)! I’ll tell him about your crush!” Nat appears in the doorway.
“What crush?” Bucky questions looking down at you. 
“Her crush on you.” Nat smirks as you blush, aware of the fact Bucky had yet to release your hips, and you your grip on him. 
“Thanks a lot Nat! I’m totally showing Steve now.”  
“You have a crush on me?” he was shocked but also excited at the prospect you liked him back.
“Yes.” you bit your lip, a habit he noticed you did when nervous.
“Well then I really think you should use your power on me again Supergirl.” he wet his lips. He was ever so aware that you were about to get every little detail about what he thought of you. 
You lowered your hand down to his exposed forearm, gently coming to rest your bare hand against his skin. Your eyes widen as you blush more. 
Nat chuckling breaks your spell and the red in your cheeks darkens as you remember you have an audience. 
“To be continued.” you whisper up at him. 
“Agreed.” a playful smile graced his face. “Now what was it you needed Steve for?”
“Nat and Steve sittin’ in a tree.” you start taunting, giggling. Nat lunged at you and you evaded her by hiding behind Bucky.
“What’s going on?” Steves voice rang through the hall. 
An evil grin spread across your face as you dart in his direction. 
“Run supergirl I got you covered.” Bucky laughs as he grabs hold of Nat.
“Don’t you dare (Y/N)!” She screeches. 
Steve has a perplexed look as he takes in the sight of whatever this was as he approaches.
“I can do a cool new thing. Care to be my test subject?” you bounce on the balls of your feet, excitedly. “It won't hurt, promise. Nat and I tried it earlier.”
“No! We just tried you, showing me your feelings! You haven’t tried transference of someone else's feelings!”  
“No better time to try!” you grabbed Steve's hand and pulled him over to Nat and took her hand. Your eyes flashed gold as you focused on Steve first. He liked Nat but let his feelings of not belonging in this time and his intense crush on Peggy get in his way. You took his liking of Nat and brought it forward, focusing you held your breath as you moved it to Nat. Her soft inhale let you know it worked, you let her feel them a few moments before pulling back. You repeated the process of showing Steve her emotions, before releasing their hands and stepping back.      
Bucky had released his hold on her and moved to your side, draping his arm around your waist. Nat and Steve stared at each other processing what just happened.
“Let’s give them some space.” he said, pulling you back down the hall. You made your way down to your own hall. “So what was that?” 
“I was able to show their feelings for each other to them. So Steve felt that Nat liked him and vice versa.” 
“Nat mentioned something about you showing her your feelings?” 
You nod, “Do you maybe wanna try that?” you ask shyly. 
“Only if you want to, doll.” he squeezed your hand gently.
“Come on.” you pulled him into your room and got comfortable on the bed. You pat the bed beside you and he sat down. Taking his hands in yours you begin the process of showing him your feelings for him. You were so focused that him pulling you in for a kiss surprised you. The connection was lost as you squeaked in surprise. 
His lips were warm and slightly chapped as they pressed against yours. Your arms snaked their way around his neck as he deepened the kiss. The kiss lasted for what felt like hours, before he pulled back and rested his forehead against yours. 
“Wow.” you smiled and he chuckled. 
“I’d like to take you out on a proper date.”
“I’d like that, and you may. But first I want you to do all those dirty thoughts to me.” you giggle as he groans low in his throat.
“As you wish, my supergirl.” he kisses you again.
