@mxsecarnival​ send: [ 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐬𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 ] - Let's just say that the Captain organizes a private Thanksgiving dinner for Rust and his friends~
Tumblr media
“Hey Rust! Who’s that guy?” It was Ink, the leader of the DBT as she is surprised by this. Not to mention, this is the first time she’s meeting the Captian. 
Tumblr media
“Heh....guys, this is Captian Commando and well...he’s my friend! Jeez, can’t believe you did this for us, dude!” Rust is surprised and also happy that Captain did something for him and his friends. 
Tumblr media
“Wow! The food looks so good! Oh wow! There’s pumpkin pie!” Said Gerald who looks over the food being prepared for them as his eyes beam. But when the words of Captain Commando came out from Rust’s mouth, he gasped. 
“Wait! You’re Captain Commando!? You’re a superhero! I heard about you! You’re so cool!” 
Tumblr media
“Not bad.” Said Jaron as he is a home cook, impressed by the Captain. “That turkey looks really good!” He compliment. 
Tumblr media
“Indeed. It’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Captain. It’s nice to meet you.” Said Hellmare. 
Tumblr media
“Rust! Why didn’t you said that you met a superhero??!” Navarro asked, who seems wary of Captian despite. He would give this superhero a benefit of a doubt so he wants to see how this turns out during the dinner.

kiss me ✿ dpr live (dabin) x female reader
Tumblr media
warnings -> none
synopsis -> two drunk friends share a kiss
fluff ofc <3 and smut kinda lol
~✿~
It wasn’t uncommon that you found yourself lounging on Dabin’s couch waiting for him to return after you came over to feed his dogs. You even cleaned up the area a bit for him and did his laundry. He was a busy man and you were a girl with a big savings account and a lot of free time.
You would say you did it for him because you were a good friend, but the truth is that you were undoubtedly in love with the rapper and it killed you to see him overworked and exhausted.
You knew he wouldn’t stay too late at the studio if you were waiting for him, especially if you had alcohol with you.
He had a long day of interviews before he went to the studio, so you made sure to buy the best of the best.
You were already quite tipsy once Dabin walked through the door. He didn’t say a word, he simply walked over to where you sat on the couch and took the bottle of tequila right out of your hand.
He takes a big gulp, slamming it down on the table and throwing himself on you; head on your chest and body rested between your legs.
Normally this would never effect you, but due to your slight intoxication, your heart was racing a mile a minute and you knew he could feel it.
“Long day?” you ask, brushing through his long hair with your fingers.
You feel your cheeks warm up once he lifts his head to take another big gulp from the bottle. “Very.”
Dabin’s a lightweight and you started drinking before him so it doesn’t take long before the two of you are giggling and slurring through your conversation.
By now you’re in the hot tub on the roof of his apartment building. Youre almost completely submerged, only your head sticking out of the water. You have your eyes closed, enjoying the warmth resonating inside and out of your body.
But a flash causes you to open your eyes. Dabin sits across from you with his phone up, giggling. “You look so cute,” He grins.
You don’t know if it’s the alcohol or the way his bare torso glistens in the moonlight but you feel overly bold and confident after his sentence. You sit up out of the water and make your way to sit next to him, body exposed with a black bikini covering the goods.
“You’re cute.” You respond, finding yourself grinning at him as he covers his cheeks to hide his blush.
“y/n stop it you’re making me nervous.” he giggles, eyes widening as you look up at him through your lashes.
Dabin lets out a cute scream, grabbing your face between his hands and squishing your cheeks together. “No!” You both giggle, your hands grabbing around his wrists.
Your eyes meet and it’s as if the world stops. Dabin looks at you; red cheeks, hair sticking to his forehead, a cute side smile on his face. It’s as if you’re the only girl in the world to him.
His thumb grazes over your bottom lip, eyes flickering down to the action. You catch him taking his bottom lip between his teeth as he does this. “Soft,” his eyes meet yours again.
“I want to kiss you really badly.” You see his chest rise and fall rapidly.
“Then kiss me.”
He pulls your face closer to his, lips hovering over yours. You feel his breath dust across your face, the smell of tequila and pineapple filling your nostrils. He gives you a soft peck, lips barely touching yours. “You’re so fucking beautiful, I love you.”
Before you can respond he kisses you fully, your heart practically beating out of your chest. His hands move from your cheeks, caressing your curves. They rest on your thighs under the water. You feel him squeeze them. Your own hands slide up his bare chest, wrapping around his neck. He grips your thighs, earning a gasp from you. His tongue enters your mouth, a groan rumbling in his throat.
You feel your body become hotter, everywhere he touches feeling as if it’s on fire.
Dabin pulls away momentarily to position his hands on your bottom and pull you onto his lap so you’re straddling him. The warm water splashes against your skin as he captures your lips once more. His hands massage your bottom, pulling you as close as physically possible as he trails kisses down your neck, holding you up to place them on your chest and between your breasts. He gently sucks on the exposed skin of your chest, groaning into his kisses.
“D-Dabin?” you gasp. Your head is spinning, you feel as if you’re dreaming. This is everything you’ve ever imagined and more.
“Yes baby,” He looks up at you after placing one last kiss where he left his marks.
“Are you doing this just because your drunk?” You don’t want to cry, but you’re afraid he’s just drunk and in need of a release.
“Yes, tequila gave me the courage to finally do this.” He laughs, kissing up your neck again and sighing into your skin.
As much as you’re enjoying yourself, you’d rather do this when you’re both sober. You hate drunk sex, you never remember a thing the next day, and you’re going to want to remember this moment forever.
“Do you want to do this later?” Despite being drunk, he notices your mood change, immediately moving his hands from your ass to wrap his arms around your waist.
You nod, watching as he gives you his signature side smile. “Let’s go inside then love,”
~✿~
Dabin laid with his head on your lap, eyes barely open as you played with his locks. “Did you say you loved me in the hot tub?”
“Hm?” He rolls over on his back to look up at you. “I did.”
“Why?” He laughs, sitting up and shaking his head at you.
“Oh my precious y/n, always so oblivious. I’ve been in love with you since we first ever met.” Your eyes widen, jaw slack. “Mhm, yea. But you’re just dumb. I had a feeling you liked me but being your friend is also nice so I wasn’t rushing but I was also afraid you wouldn’t want to be anything more.” he adds with a laugh, resting his hand above your knee.
“I love you too Dabin,” he giggles, grabbing you and throwing his body back so you both fall together. “Awe so cute.” He peppers kisses across your face as he holds you where you fell beside him.
You spend some time cuddling on the couch, falling asleep in each others arms with the tv on max volume. At some point, Dabin wakes up and carries you to his bedroom where he holds you tight against his chest, praying he never loses you.
~✿~
literally one person said i should write more for baby dpr so here i am. anyway i love him qnd i’m going to cry mtself to sleep now bye.

Flowers in Bloom - Connected by Fate
Tumblr media
Prompt: flowers that bloom when you touch your soulmate
Pairing: Terushima Yuuji x Seijoh Girls’ Captain Reader
Tw: insecurities, feelings of inferiority, mistaken identities, an emotional breakdown, platonic intimacy
Word count: 5.7k
AN: TBH, I’ve been in a really weird place these past few months and I am so sorry for disappearing. This is the first thing that I’ve been able to finish since November, hence my temporary hiatus. I couldn’t resist joining this collab with the @celestialarchiveshq and my fingers are crossed for more updates of Escape Plan. Until then, enjoy ! 
Collab Masterlist
*****
One more. 
You slide, right arm outstretched, your hand in a fist as you feel sweat-slick legs burning against the ground. 
Just a little further.
Biting down on your lip, the sound of the ball hitting the floor supplemented the sound of your world crashing around you. (E/c) eyes watched as it bounced once, twice, until the whistle blew - signaling the end of the match. Slamming your fists on the ground, your team-mate and vice captain, Akemi, stood over you. “C’mon Capt, let’s line-up.” 
You look at your setter, giving her a stiff nod as you push yourself off the ground. You join the rest of the girls in teal as you stare at your opponents. Nobody really expected you to win. Not against Niiyama. Not against the prefecture’s favorites. You glared at Mayumi, the setter who led Niiyami. Her name every bit as defining of her play-style. Mayumi’s bright smile was blinding as she clapped the back of her teammates. 
You bow with the rest of your team, shaking hands with the Niiyama Queens.
“Perhaps at Spring Tourney,” Mayumi said, holding your hand in her callused ones. “Your serves are getting better.”
The corner of your lips twitch as you nod at her. “I’ll win next time, Mayumi.”
Her eyes sparkled. “I can’t wait to see your next attempt then, (L.Name)-san.”
Your coach calls for you, Akemi tugging on your arm once more. Mayumi’s brown eyes turn to Akemi. “Your technique is getting better, Akemi.” 
Akemi’s grip tightened on your arm, it was clear that she felt the same way with the compliments feeling like a slap to the face. “We’ll beat you next time, Mayumi. Now, if you’ll excuse us.” You both bow to the other captain once more before heading to rejoin your girls. “You know she’s just trying to rile us up.”
“Don’t I know it,” you scoff under your breath, patting her hand. You take a breath before you survey your teammates. They all looked battered, exhausted. It’d been a rough two sets against them with your team not even taking one. Glancing back at the score-board, irritation filled you. The whole time, you were only a few steps behind Niiyama, but it was clear that there was still work to be done. Clearing your throat, you drew your girls’ attention. “You all did an incredible job out there.”
Your libero burst into tears, grabbing your arms, “(Nickname)-san, I’m so sorry. If I had tried harder, I could have recovered more balls and-”
“Don’t.” You pull your arm out of Akemi’s grips, grabbing Ena’s cheeks - your thumb wiping away her tears. “Ena, you did incredible out there. This defeat doesn’t fall on any one person.” Your eyes scan the rest of your teammates as you raise your voice slightly to be heard over the ambience of the court. “We stand on the court as six, not just as one.” A whistle blew as the next team raced in. “C’mon. If we hurry now, we’ll probably be able to catch the rest of the boys’ match.” 
The rest of the girls nod, leaving the gym to head towards the Sendai City Gymnasium. You tug your teal jacket on, hoping that it’ll safeguard you from your own self-depreciative thoughts. Akemi stayed behind, squeezing your shoulder. “I’ll go with them.” The empty question hung in the air. Don’t you need time to grieve? You squeeze her hand before resting your head on it. 
“I’ll be fine.” Swallowing, you take a deep breath. “What kind of a Captain will I be if I can’t be there in front of my girls?”
“Human.” Akemi muttered, but allowed you to pull free and race towards the gym with the rest of the team. 
The loud calls of “Ole!” filled Sendai Gym as you all entered the stands, the girls’ perking up at the familiar cry. They all raced down to the very front of the stands, leaving you to watch at the entrance to the seats as Oikawa landed another powerful serve. 
“No-touch Ace!” Ena cheered, her mood brightening significantly at the sight. Your mouth felt dry as you glanced at the scoreboard. It was to no surprise that they were doing better than you had. Both teams typically made it to the semifinals, but it was apparent that this time would be an exception. Your heart clenched at the realisation that this game may have very well been your last. 
Akemi glanced up at you, seeing your lip quiver. She gave you a stern look, nodding at you. Nodding at her, you spin on your heels and race away. 
Too busy, too many people. You growl internally as (e/c) eyes dart around searching for sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of the tournament. You find yourself near the locker-rooms, the hallway void of life. Back hitting the wall, you slide down as you bury your face into your arms. Molten hot tears escaping from their prison as the last brick of your self-control came tumbling down. Shoulders shook as aggressive thoughts continued to batter at you.
What kind of Captain am I if I couldn’t even keep the ball in play?
Am I even an Ace when I couldn’t smash through those blocks?
“Hey, are you okay?”
Your blood froze as you glanced up at a blurry figure in yellow and red. He crouched closer to you, directly in front of your face. “I’m fine,” you huff, sniffing. 
“Right, cause that’s the only reason why you’d be sitting in a hallway by yourself crying.” The soft tenor of his voice was soothing. “So what’s got you all teary-eyed then, princess?”
You roll your eyes, wiping your tears with the back of your hand. “Don’t call me that.” 
He chuckled, shrugging his shoulders. “If that bothers you, I could always call you babygirl.”
For some reason, your heart skipped a beat at the thought. 
“Why not just call me by my name,” you fired back. 
“Well, I’d need to know your name in order to do that.” He cocked his head to the side. “Unless, you wanted me to know you.” 
Shaking your head, you relax your shoulders ever so slightly. “I’d rather let you be a face lost in the crowd to be honest.”
“Then I’ll call you princess and you can just call me your knight in shining armour,” he teased, plopping down beside you. “So what’s got my princess crying today?” Almond eyes scanned your jacket and jersey. “I’m assuming you played today.” 
You snorted, “if you meant, did I get viciously defeated by my own lack of skill, then yes, I definitely did.” 
The male frowned, eyeing you. “If you made it to the quarter-finals, I highly doubt you don’t have skills.” He wrapped an arm around you, tugging you into his side. You try to push off, not wanting your tears to stain his yellow jacket only for him to pull more insistently. “It’s okay to be upset about a loss, and it’s okay to be emotional about it. But don’t put the blame all on yourself.” His thumb rubbed against your shoulder. “Besides, after this, you can focus on putting that energy towards improving yourself for the next time.” 
“If there is a next time,” you mutter, taking in his rich woodsy scent. 
“Well there won’t be if you think like that.”   
 Sitting in silence, his words washing over you. Your sorrows, your self-deprecating thoughts, disappearing as if they were footsteps in the sand and his statements the ocean’s waves erasing them from existence. 
His phone vibrated, rumbling against your hips. 
When had you gotten so close to him? 
“That’s probably my team.” He turns towards you, a calloused hand cupping your cheek as his thumb wiped the glistening silver remnants on your cheek. “Keep your head up, princess, don’t let that crown fall.” Brown eyes met (e/c) eyes, drawing you deeper into his spell than you had anticipated. His warm breath hummed against your lips. 
Why were you leaning in? 
“Oi, Terushima!” He flinched away, drawing back abruptly as the door slammed open. “OH shit, my bad,” the imposing male apologised, backing away. “We’ll meet you outside, Capt!” 
“Sorry,” Terushima grumbled, shaking his head. “I’ll see you some other time, princess. Hopefully you aren’t crying then,” he teased before getting up and dusting his pants before making his way out - your eyes following his back. Taking a moment longer to compose yourself, you too stood up and made your way back to the stands.
“So where’d you end up?” 
“Nowhere,” you grumbled as you met Akemi at the entrance to the stands once more. The setter was leaning against the wall, arms crossed as she patiently waited for your arrival. “Where are the rest of the girls?”
“They met up with the rest of the volleyball team while we’re waiting for the others to get out of the locker-room. Did you wanna go grab dinner with the boys?” 
“We’ll grab dinner with them tomorrow after they beat Shiratorizawa,” you reply, confidence ringing in your heart. “C’mon, let’s get the girls so that we can shower and change out.” 
You turn only to collide into solid, muscular planes, causing you to yelp. Arms shot out to steady you, helping you. “Are you okay?” Looking up, eyebrows furrowed in concern. 
As you open your mouth to respond, a call of your name drew your attention away. “(Nickname)-chan!” Your best friend sang, pompously making his way to your side with a forceful smile on his face. “I didn’t hear you cheering for me today,” he pouted, throwing his arms around your shoulders and pulling you out of the ace’s grip. “Ushijima.” Oikawa cocked his head, his smile slipping into a smirk. “Checking out the competition?”
Ushijima tilted his head, raising an eyebrow at the captain’s antics. “Why would I be scared? Aoba Johsai has yet to take a set from us.” 
Oikawa’s grip on your shoulder tightened. “We’ll see how confident you are tomorrow when we crush you,” he sneered. “C’mon, (Nickname), let’s go.” Akemi rolled her eyes as Oikawa dragged you away towards your teams, muttering an apology to Ushijima before following suit. 
“You’re so rude to him,” you roll your eyes at Oikawa.
“Like you wouldn’t be if you saw Mayumi all over me,” Oikawa retorted. 
“Touche.” You sigh, making it to the Seijoh teams. “C’mon ladies, let’s go get changed and we’ll head out for the night. Good job out there, boys!” 
With final murmurs of departure, the girls slipped away towards their locker-rooms in order to shower.
*****
“Captain, your flowers!” 
“Huh?” 
You jolt, looking at your forearm. The buds that had yet to bloom all these years finally have, splatters of violet and blue encompassing your (skin-tone) flesh. The other girls crowd around you, staring in mixed responses of awe and inspiration - all in various stages of undress.
“Who is it?” Ena asked excitedly, bouncing on the balls of her feet. 
Staring at it, your mouth dries. Who could it have been? Ushijima Wakatoshi, the one who caught you? Any of the team-members on the Niiyama team? Perhaps even someone from the Date Tech team who you’d played earlier in the day? Or maybe even the guy who you picked up the bentos from for your team’s lunch? 
“I...I don’t know,” you mumble, mouth dry. You look up to see their faces. Pity and confusion filled most of their expressions. Clearing your throat, you throw on a tattered navy hoodie. “If you’re finished changing, please feel free to leave.” 
The snap of metal shook most of them out of their reverie as you closed your locker, throwing your bag over your shoulder. Akemi remained beside you as the rest of the girls finished up, quickly filing out though some threw furtive glances over their shoulders as they departed. 
“You okay, Cap?” 
“I’ll be fine, ‘Kemi. You should head out, I’m sure you’re tired.”
Akemi rolled her eyes, bumping her shoulder into yours. “I’m sure you’ll find each other again.” 
“Mmhm.” 
“G’night, Cap. See you tomorrow.”  
Rolling up the sleeve of your hoodie, you stared down at the ink. The gods really wanted to test you today, didn’t they? First by placing you in the same bracket as Niiyama, secondly by taunting you with your other half only to rip them away with barely a hint to their identity. It’s not like soulmates had matching flower tattoos, nor who could say with confidence that they knew exactly who their soulmate was unless they both knew when their flowers had bloomed? 
“You met your soulmate?” Oikawa grinned, noting the colourful display on your arm. The male was standing patiently under the street-light waiting for you. Iwaizumi had headed home first, citing exhaustion and an eagerness to sleep to prepare for the upcoming match. “Who is it?” 
“Fuck if I knew,” you shot back angrily, stomping towards him. 
His face drops, “what?” 
“I don’t know who my soulmate is, Oikawa.” You push past him, pulling your bag closer over your shoulder. “If I knew, I would have told you already dumbass.” 
His face drops, forehead creasing in concern. “Are you okay?” He says in a low voice, easily catching up to you as you both walk out of the gym.
“Does it look like I’m okay?” 
You look into the darkening sky, the violet hues reminding you of the ink that marred your skin. The permanent reminder that you had met your soulmate only to have lost them just as soon. A star danced across the sky. I wish I could meet my soulmate again.  
Oikawa eyes you carefully, for once at a loss as to what to say. You both remain quiet, only giving one another a tight hug at the crossroads where you’d turn to head to your respective homes. You squeeze each other tightly. Him, to comfort you for your disappointing day. You, to congratulate him for his wins and to wish him luck in tomorrow’s match. (E/c) eyes meet brown as you each give one another a nod. 
Tomorrow will be life-changing, you promise one another.
******
The final whistle blew once more, calling the end for another game. Another person’s career ending here on this court. 
“(L.Name)-san.” 
Surprise ricocheted through your body as you looked up to greet whoever had called your name. Above you, a looming figure of muscle entered your field of vision. “Ushijima-san?” 
“May we speak in private?”
Chewing on your lip, you look over at Akemi who shrugged before disappearing into the crowd towards the rest of the Seijoh boys. The rest of the girls had already gone ahead, slipping into the mass of teal in order to comfort their counterparts - just as the boys had done the night before. As soon as the match had ended, you’d all race down in order to greet the challengers.
Clearing your throat, you straighten your back in an attempt to match Ushijima. “What is it you wanted to talk about, Ushijima-san?”
He shifted on his feet. “I believe that we are soulmates.”
Your brain short-circuited. “Wait, what?”  
Ushijima rolled up his maroon sleeve, showcasing the hues of red and pink on his bicep - a gladioli flower. “My flowers bloomed and I noticed it after I helped you from falling.” His eyes fell onto your forearms, noting your own violet bouquet. “Did that bloom yesterday as well?”
Tongue heavy in your mouth, you could only nod. Ushijima? Ushijima Wakatoshi? One of the top aces in the country was your soulmate? Just how cruel were the fates? Not only was Ushijima the sole reason why your best friend failed to make it to nationals, but he served as a reminder to your own failures in your volleyball career. 
Ushijima hummed, the deep baritone shaking you out of your reverie. “Being that we are soulmates, I suppose this is the time that I ask for your contact information.”
“My, my contact info?”
He cocked his head, brows furrowing. “Yes, we should get to know one another, shouldn’t we?”
“Right!” You fumble for your phone, pulling it out and handing it to the ace - the phone looking small in his massive palms. He carefully inputted his number, calling himself before handing the device back to you. 
A shout of his name drew his olive eyes away from your form, a reminder that you both were still in Sendai City Gymnasium. “I need to go prepare for the award ceremony.” He looks back down at you. “I will contact you later to arrange a date.”
“Right,” you repeat, forcing your head into a nod. Ushijima bows at you before heading back towards the rest of his team. The girls escape from the boys, rejoining you at your side.
“What did Ushiwaka want with you?” Chihiro, one of the second year middle-blockers, asked, looking between you and the lumbering ace. 
“He’s my soulmate.”
“What?!?” Various cries filled the air, calling for more eyes to fall upon the group as you try to hush your team. 
“Both of our flowers bloomed yesterday, and he knows for a fact that his bloomed after he touched me.” 
“Congratulations Cap!” The girls drew you into a hug, all squeezing together. Only one person stood apart from the group, waiting patiently for her own turn. As the team withdrew, chattering about soulmates and how lucky you were to have found yours, Akemi made her way to you. She grabbed you by the biceps, resting her forehead against yours - both of your eyes fluttering shut at the intimacy of it.
“I’m happy for you, (Nickname).” 
Your throat constricted at the familiarity of her voice. “I appreciate you, ‘Kemi.” 
Akemi had been there for you ever since you had both joined the volleyball team at Kitagawa First. Just as Oikawa had Iwaizumi, you had Akemi. An ace with their setter. You stay close to her for a moment longer before pulling away and clearing your throat. “We should go take our seats for the award ceremony.”
The first years grabbed your arms, pulling you with them as they asked you about your soulmate, how you were feeling about being mated to THE Ushijima Wakatoshi. Akemi watched quietly for a moment longer before joining the group as you made your way towards the Seijoh section of the stands. 
Of course, the congratulations were quick to end as soon as your favourite setter found out what had happened.
“Ushiwaka is your soulmate?” Oikawa screeched, his face red as his voice jumped several octaves. “Are you fucking kidding me?!”  Oikawa scowled, glaring at your bluebells as if they were to blame for your predicament. It’s funny how people always looked to place the blame on things that were only involved as an unhappy circumstance.  
“Hey! It’s not like I asked for this, Oikawa.”
He crossed his arms, narrowed eyes meeting yours. “Are you sure? Because it sure seems like it,” he sneers. “Of course you’d be mated to my mortal enemy, wouldn’t you?”
Iwaizumi smacked Oikawa over the head, face darkened with irritation. “Why can’t you just be happy for (Name)? You know they’ve been stressing about this.” 
Oikawa rolled his eyes, crossing his arms and huffing. “Fine. If Ushiwaka is your soulmate, then you better be ready to comfort him when I beat him at Spring Tournament”
“Oikawa,” Iwaizumi warned threateningly, rolling his sleeves up.
“And I’ll beat his ass if he ends up hurting you.”
Iwaizumi paused before looking back at you. “Same though.”
Rolling your eyes, you dragged the two into a tight hug. “I love you two, too.”
“More than Ushiwaka?” Oikawa asked cheekily, holding you close to him.
“More than Ushiwaka,” you confirmed, giggling while you patted his back affectionately. No matter who your soulmate was, that will never take away from your relationship with your best friend. 
*****
“Hey there princess!” You jolt, looking up to see a grinning male waving at you while he approached you. “Fancy seeing you here.”
“I didn’t expect to see you anytime soon,” you reply, amused as he stands in front of you, hands stuck in his pockets. 
The male shrugs, jerking his head in the direction he’d just come from. “I have college prep down the street from here, and I’ll sometimes go to the cafe afterwards just to hang-out.” He scruntises you carefully. “What brings you here?”
You readjust your bag, looking at the cafe that you’d just left. “I was meeting with my soulmate.”
Terushima paused, looking back down at you. “Your soulmate, huh?” He cocks his head. “Why don’t you seem more excited?”
Freezing, you take a moment to consider his words. Did you seem that bored? “I am excited!” You defended yourself.
He leans in closer, almond eyes meeting yours as he examines you. A shiver shoots down your spine due to the close proximity. It almost felt like he was able to see right through you - right to the deep center of your very existence. “If that was the case, wouldn’t you be leaving with him? Or her?”
Heat flared in your cheeks as you whipped your face away from his. “That’s none of your concern.”
“Why wouldn’t it be?”
“Huh?”
Terushima cocks his head, a smirk sliding onto his face. “I’m your knight-in-shining armour, princess, and I refuse to let you be unhappy even if it’s because of your soulmate.”  Huffing, you turn away from him and start the journey back home. Terushima chuckled softly, easily catching up to you. Ignoring him, you think back to your date.
All around you two, the cafe was bustling with life. Across the room, a rowdy group of boys were heckling their friend. Your finger tapped against your cup as you and your companion sit quietly. 
“What-” “How-” 
You and Ushijima both stop in your tracks, looking at one another.  
“You can go first,” Ushijima offered.
“No you.” 
Another awkward silence settled over you two. Your eyes wander, falling on another pair - evidently also on a date. But they looked so happy with one another, easily finding themselves in one conversation and losing themselves during it. Shouldn’t it be easy? After all, you were soulmates, right?
Swallowing thickly, you meet olive eyes that shine with acknowledgement. He gives you a slight nod. “Perhaps we should start at the beginning?” He offers,waiting for you to nod before continuing. “I am Ushijima Wakatoshi, a student at Shiratorizawa. I enjoy volleyball and plan on making it my career.”
The corner of your lips twitch into a faint smile. “Hi Ushijima-san. I am (L.Name, Name), a student at Aoba Johsai. I also enjoy volleyball and I hope that I can be involved with it professionally.”
At least we have that in common, you think to yourself.
Sipping from your cup, you resign yourself to the fact that it might take time for the two of you to act like ‘proper’ soulmates.
“What’s got you all twisted up?”
“What?”
Terushima rolls his eyes, kicking a rock out of his way. “Like what’s bugging you?”
“I don’t think we’re close enough for me to tell you that,” you tease, bumping into his shoulder. 
“I mean, I am your knight-in-shining armour for a reason, right?” Brown eyes carefully watch your features, waiting for your reaction. 
You remain quiet for a moment longer, pearly whites digging into your bottom lip. “So much for being lost in the crowd,” you mutter to yourself. Sighing, you look up into the sky to avoid making eye contact with the unruly male beside you. “I had my first ‘date’ with my soulmate and to be honest, it wasn’t what I imagined. Like, I always thought it’d be easy for us to hangout and just be with one another, but it almost...felt like a chore.” 
A heavy weight slipped off your chest as soon as you said it, words dragged to your lips from the deepest, darkest part of your heart. Voicing your concerns felt liberating, validating to say the least. 
Terushima remained silent, his gaze still on you. It delved deep into you, stripping you bare under his scrutiny. Your fingers fiddled with the volleyball keychain on your lanyard, squeezing it as if to distract yourself from the emotional havoc you’ve reaped on yourself. 
“Y’know, soulmates or not, it’s still a relationship. It’ll take time to develop into whatever you hope it is, and you don’t have to define it as a traditional ‘romantic’ relationship if that isn’t what suits you and your soulmate.” Terushima shrugged, fists clenched in his pockets - hidden from your view. 
Pausing, you look at him. “Have you found your soulmate, Terushima?” 
He jolts out of his thoughtful stupor, casting his gaze back onto you. He offers you a small smile. “Yeah, and she’s absolutely incredible.”
For some reason, your heart hurt hearing that. Tongue heavy in your mouth, you barely manage to choke out a “I’m happy for you.” Looking up to search for a distraction, you were both pleased and sad to find that you’d arrived at your bus station. Though you barely knew him, you found yourself drawn into conversation with him. “Well, this is my stop.” Terushima opens his mouth to say something only for your bus to pull up. “Catch you on the flip-side, Terushima.” You offer the male a small smile before boarding.
“Yeah, you definitely will,” he murmurs to himself, waving to you as your bus departs. You sink into the seat, eyes fluttering shut as you massage your temple. This soulmate thing felt like more trouble than it was worth.
*****
“Hey, it’s you!” 
Turning, you raise an eyebrow at the persistent male. The bouncing yellow-clad figure was oddly reminiscent of a Mikasa volleyball. “Terushima?”
“In the flesh,” he responded cheekily, bowing to you with a huge flourish. Embarrassment filled your body as you scowled at his antics. 
“What are you doing here?”
“What does it look like?” He jabs a thumb into his chest. “About to beat Karasuno in order to play against your boys.” 
“Is that so?” You smirk. “Well, I look forward to watching you play then.” 
His grin becomes almost comically wide. “Hey, find me after the game. I have something to tell you.” 
Raising your eyebrows, you nod softly. “You better win, Sir Knight.”
“With you in the stands, I definitely will,” he responded cheekily. A call of his name dragged his attention away from you. “I better hear you cheering for me, princess!” He pressed his lips to your cheek before darting away, disappearing before you even had a chance to react. Your fingertips grazed the spot where his lips had touched your skin, electricity coursing through your veins from that second of contact. 
What on Earth was he thinking? You shake your head, making your way to the stands where Akemi was waiting for you. “What took you so long?”
“An annoying Teletubby stopped me in the hallway,” you rolled your eyes, before looking around the stadium. “Should we get closer?”
Akemi shrugged, “why not?”
The two of you made your way down to the rails, watching as the Karasuno team warmed up. “They’re definitely not what you’d expect,” you mused as you surveyed the various members. “These are the guys who beat Date Tech?” 
Akemi shrugged, “don’t underestimate them. They didn’t do too badly against Oikawa during Interhigh too.”
The whistle blew with Karasuno serving first. “Damn, that’s a nice serve,” you comment as you watched the samurai-looking male serve. 
“Man that’s intense!” You heard over the roar of the audience, your eyes immediately finding Terushima. 
“Chance ball!” Karasuno cries, only for your eyes to widen.
He couldn’t-
Terushima slams the ball back towards their court, a powerful back attack that sent chills straight down your spine. Leaning against the railing, you couldn’t help but watch his figure as he jumped around. Just who exactly was your knight-in-shining armour? Your lips quirked up into a smile as you watched Terushima jump in glee. 
What a dork, you thought fondly. 
Beside you, Akemi carefully watched your expressions - her own considerations deeply veiled. These past few months, she’d listen to you go on dates with Ushijima only to return dissatisfied with the progression of your relationship. But now, seeing this sparkle in your eye, she couldn’t help but wonder if the two of you had been mistaken after all. 
She cleared her throat. “Do you know him?”
Your eyes never left Terushima as Akemi’s question invaded your mind. “Vaguely,” you respond finally. “He’s always shown up in unexpected places.”
Akemi hummed, falling silent as she turned back to the match. Her lips pulled up. “I see.” 
As the game progressed, you couldn’t help but be drawn to Terushima. He played as if volleyball was his oxygen, his very purpose of life. The way he moved, it was clear that he was made for the sport, though his more outlandish actions filled you with more amusement than admiration. You howled with laughter when Johzenji attempted to do the synchronized attack, desperately holding onto the railing to steady yourself. Akemi rolled her eyes, chuckling under her breath. She shook her head, a hand hovering over your waist as you wiped away your tears. 
“That was too damn funny,” you admitted. 
Terushima’s eyes found you in the stands, his smile brighter than a summer’s sun. He waved, causing a sudden shyness to wash over you. Giving him a small wave back, Terushima looked like a puppy who finally got the attention it had been begging for - tail practically waving for all to see. After taking a few deep breaths, you settled back into watching the rest of the match. 
*****
“There you are!” The familiar voice called out to you, pulling you towards him as if you were two magnets. 
“You played so well out there!” You grin, though you couldn’t help the snide remark. “Too bad you couldn’t beat them.”
“Oi!” he pouted, crossing his arms. “All that matters is that we had fun, right?”
You raise an eyebrow, “sure about that?”
He sighed, shaking his head. “Nah, I wish we made it to the next round.”
“Exactly.” You both stand there quietly for a moment. “What is it that you wanted to show me?”
“Oh!” He gulped, fingers playing with one another. “C’mere.”
“Wha-”
You were cut off as Terushima yanked you towards an empty hallway. The two of you had been standing in the main lobby of the gymnasium. 
“Why are we here?” You scowled, ignoring the ambush of emotions and shocks that coursed through your body at his touch. 
“Promise me you won’t be mad?”
The sheer vulnerability in his voice had you reaching out to grab his hand, automatically agreeing. “I promise. What’s going on, Terushima?”
“You’re my soulmate.”
“What?” You stare directly into his eyes, head shaking slightly. “What do you mean?”   
He gulps, sighing before he pulled down the collar of his jersey to reveal pink and red camellias. “These bloomed after the first time that we met.”
“Wait but, Ushijima?” Shaky fingers reached out, freezing just millimeters away from the painted skin. “How do you know for sure?”
Terushima shrugged, tongue sweeping across his bottom lip. “You were the only person I touched that day.” 
“I-”
Terushima gently grasped onto your wrist. “I know you and Ushijima were seeing each other for a bit, but I promise you, I’m not lying. I know you’re my soulmate.” 
“Terushima…” Tears welled up in your eyes. “Why didn’t you say something sooner?”
He shrugged, “I wanted you to get to know me for me, not just because I was your soulmate.”
You roll your eyes, shoving him in the chest. “You’re the dumbest person I know.” 
“Why’s that?” 
“Because I could have been spending this time with you instead of going on dates that feel like they’re going nowhere and making me feel worse about myself.” 
His face split into a grin, his body relaxing. “So does that mean..?”
You roll your eyes, grabbing his hand in yours. “Yeah, dumbass, you’re really stuck with me now.” 
He chuckles, bringing your hand to his lips. “Princess, I’m more than okay with that!” 
*****
“Y’know, I’m not sure if thinking Ushijima was your soulmate is worse, or if this is.” Oikawa grumbled, eyeing the pierced male beside you. Oikawa covers his mouth with one hand in a stage whisper, “you know he’s a player right?” You roll your eyes. It wasn’t like that actually helped to hide his words, causing Terushima’s grip on your hand to tighten slightly. 
“You think anybody would be a terrible match for me,” you retorted. “Besides, people think you’re a player too, Oikawa.” 
“Yeah but at least I’m cute!” Your best friend argued.
Terushima offers you both a smirk. “I think of a few dozen girls who would say that I’m pretty attractive myself.”
You glare at your soulmate, easily freeing your hand from his. “Maybe you can have those girls instead then, Terushima.” 
“Wait-”
Turning your body completely, you shut Terushima out of the conversation as you and Oikawa chat about your futures, arms linked with one another. Terushima’s smirk becomes a smile as you throw him a flirty wink over his shoulder. Though he hadn’t really gotten to know you quite yet, he already knew that you were both meant to be. After all, the flowers on his chest and the flowers on your arms said as much and now that you had both really found one another again, you had the rest of your lives to figure out just how compatible you were.
*****
BONUS
“Has (Name) talked to you yet?” Akemi asked, standing beside the impressive ace as they surveyed the scene together. 
They watched as (Name) pushed her best friend off, laughing at his antics only for Terushima to take this opportunity pull him towards her, throwing an arm over her shoulder and tucking her into his side. 
Her (e/c) eyes twinkled like the lone moon in a violet sky, bright and captivating to watch. Pink lips pressed to her forehead, causing that light to shine even brighter. 
Akemi glanced over to the ace who had a blank expression on his face. “What’s on your mind?”
“I did not think that we were soulmates. Not truly.” 
“Oh?” 
Olive turned to meet brown, meeting her directly. “You knew all along.” 
 Akemi shrugged, giving him a soft smile. “Perhaps.”
“Why did you not say anything sooner?”
“How could I convince my soulmate that he was going after the wrong person?” 
Ushijima offered her a rare smile, bowing his head. “Ushijima Wakatoshi, your soulmate and the fool for thinking someone else was mine.”
She grinned, bowing back to him. “Akemi Sato, the person who allowed their soulmate to think otherwise.”
“Shall we go somewhere?” 
“Let’s.”

Double-Edged Sword: Capt. Syverson x Reader (Chapter 1)
[I decided to ignore my WIPs and my URL and write something for Syverson because he is just…. a beautiful, meaty man and he deserves some more love.
To those of you who follow me for Witcher stuff only, I promise we will return shortly to the regularly scheduled programming.  As for the rest of us who are thirsty for Cavill in any context… enjoy!]
Summary: As a Major in the Marine Corps, you work with other units and branches relatively often.  That said, you had never really had to ask another unit for help before, so you felt pretty awkward when a mission required you to travel to a nearby Army camp and take shelter with them for the next two months.  Of course, their smack-talking, free-wheeling Captain isn’t going to make it any easier on you, either.
Word Count: 5k (oh jesus christ)
Rating: E
(warning for dub con and people being sexist assholes, cause yknow, it’s the military.  contains lots of angst and bickering and arguing, and of course, smut.)
“Listen, I’m not going to stand here and pretend I’m Ms. Popular,” you sighed, “but hopefully you all can appreciate that I look out for all of you.”
No one said anything, because they were standing at attention at their cots.
“At ease,” you added, and they all relaxed a bit, “but keep quiet so I can finish.”
A few sat on their beds but most still seemed to be paying attention.
“When it’s just us Marines, I don’t mind much whatever you call me when I’m not around.  Or when I’m around.  But once we get where we’re going tomorrow, we’re shacking up with the Army.  And as much as I want everyone to get along, I’m not sure how likely that is.  Anyways, what I’m trying to say is… right now it may be me versus you, but soon it’s going to be us versus them, Marines versus Army.  And us Marines need to stick together.  Does that make sense?”
There were a few nods, but you weren’t sure they were getting it.
“Alright, allow me to be a bit more literal.  Don’t tell the other soldiers that I’m a bitch,” you requested.  There were some scattered chuckles.  “I know it probably seems fine since you say it to each other but I need you guys to help me get their respect.  I’m not saying to go in there and tell every Army nimrod that I’m everybody’s favorite officer.  Just… don’t let them see any cracks they could exploit.  Because I have to start ordering these guys around and I’m already batting a thousand.”
“Seems reasonable,” Private Cole replied, and most of the others agreed.  You smiled and left them alone to have a somewhat relaxing night before they had to ship out.
“I don’t want this to be Marines versus Army,” you told Captain Syverson the next day when you met with him for the first time.  Of course, that was what you had told your own unit would happen, but he didn’t know that.  “I’m sure you know that this is an officer versus enlisted issue.  And us officers should stick together.”
He was smiling back at you from across the table, but it didn’t seem that friendly.  
“I don’t see why there’s any ‘versus’ at all.  You and your unit are guests here.  We get this project over with and you’re out,” he shrugged.  
“Maybe you haven’t had much issue getting control of your soldiers.  But it took me a while to get mine to trust me, and now I have to go in blind and command your unit.  So I hope you’re on my side,” you explained.
He went from smiling in an unhappy way, to laughing in an unfunny way.  You regretted the way you had approached this conversation.
“Sounds like you’re not a good leader, if it was so much trouble for you,” he scoffed. “Maybe you should work on that.”
You didn’t get angry very often, but this was the closest you’d been in a while.  You understood his distrust, even a little duplicity was merited.  To just outright insult you to your face was, of course, hurtful, but mainly just stupid.  You’d always known Army guys were total morons, but this was just ridiculous.  What could he gain from going against you?
“How many years until you get promoted?” you asked him suddenly, standing up from your chair.
“About two and a half,” he responded.
“Well, if in two and a half years we’re both still alive, and I’m not already a lieutenant colonel, call me and we’ll talk about who’s in charge.  Until then, back off,” you huffed, and turned to walk away.  You yelped when he grabbed you by the arm and pulled you back.
“You’re on my base,” he reminded you sternly.
“And we’ll try to be respectful while we’re here, regardless of how we’re being treated,” you grimaced, wrenching your arm out of his grasp.
“You’ll try to be respectful?  On my base?!  How generous,“ he scoffed.  "You can’t just show up and start running things.”
“I have no desire to micromanage your little sandhut, Captain.  I don’t give half a fuck what goes on in here.  What I do have is the final call on any decision made in this mission,” you explained.
“On whose authority?” he pressed.  You laughed.
“Cap, somewhere in your desk there’s a little piece of paper– it’s got a lot of pretty gold and silver stars on it– and it explains how commanding authority is ranked in every branch of the United States military.  Feel free to go and check me on this, but I’m pretty sure that ‘Captain’ is here,” you motioned in the air, “and ‘Major’ is here,” you moved your hand up an inch.
“Well, sweetheart, there’s a sign outside the front of this base that says ‘Army’ on it, and a little sticker on your chest,” he poked it, and you couldn’t decide if you hated the physical contact or the deriding pet name more, “that says USMC.”
“Rank is rank,” you argued.
“So if you’ve got a doctorate in physics and I’ve got a master’s in English, you have the right to lecture me about fuckin’ Grapes of Wrath or whatever?”
“My doctorate is in American History,” you frowned. He laughed in frustration.
“Only a Jarhead could miss the point that hard,” he groaned, “and find a way to brag in the process.”
“Call your superior,” you growled, “who is notably a Major, and ask him who has authority on this base while we’re here.”
You stormed out before you could hear his reply.
~
When the time came, the two of you discussed how you would approach the mission behind closed doors.  Not like it was fun or anything, but you managed to stay off each other’s throats for a while and agree on a few things.  It was nice enough that you actually let your guard down, so much so that you were totally blindsided when he waited until you were in front of the entire company to disagree with you.
“That’ll never work,” he suddenly interrupted as you explained the plan, “we’ll divide and conquer.”
You looked at him with confusion.
“That’s not what we discussed before,” you reminded him.
“I changed my mind,” he shrugged.
“Well, I didn’t.  So we’ll do it my way.”
“My men, my rules,” he growled, stepping closer to you.
“Half these people,” you corrected, since a few of your unit were women, “are mine, and you’re below me.”
“Fuck you,” he said casually, smiling while he did it.
“You couldn’t handle it,” you spat back.
A few of the enlisted ‘ooooh’ed but for the most part it was very, very quiet.
Finally, Captain Syverson silently turned on his heel and walked away, looking exasperated.
“Looks like the Captain is going to take a little break,” you smiled with fake enthusiasm, turning back to the company, “and I’ll keep explaining this mission to you all.”
“If Captain Syverson doesn’t approve it, we’re not doing it,” one of the Army kids announced.  Your Marines were notably silent, but the rest of the Captain’s unit nodded in agreement.
“I’ve got a word for you, boys.  It starts with ‘N’ and ends with ‘subordination,’” you frowned.  They all groaned.
“It’s not insubordination because you’re not in charge of us!”
“Manage your own people, Jarhead!”
You uncrossed your arms and let your voice get a little louder.  “Hey, hey, settle down!” 
It mostly worked, but everyone seemed pretty displeased.
“Captain Syverson and I had a discussion with our superiors and it was concluded that I am highest ranking and I get the final call on every tactical decision,” you explained.
“That’s not what he told us,” one of the Army boys chuckled.
You tried not to seethe in front of them, you tried to keep it professional, but how were you supposed to work in these conditions?
“As you were,” you resigned through your teeth, storming off to where the Captain had gone.  You found him in his quarters, relaxing on a sofa; you nearly kicked the door in to talk to him.
“What the fuck was that?!” you exclaimed.
“I changed my mind,” he repeated calmly.
“You’re such a fucking asshole,” you growled, shoving him where he sat.  He stood up, clearly agitated.
“Get your hands off me, lady.”
“Major,” you corrected through your teeth.
“Only Major you are to me is a major waste of my fucking time,” he replied.
“Take it up with the Department of Defense, they’re the ones who gave me the title,” you defended.
“You know, lately I’ve been having issues with a lot of their decisions.  I’m still trying to figure out why the fuck we’re doing this anyways.”
“The mission?” you asked.
“The war,” he corrected.
“Ah,” you nodded, looking around nervously.  You were more comfortable with the arguing than the awkward silence. 
“Whatever,” he scoffed, crossing his arms and slumping his shoulders.
“Go tell your unit the plan- our plan.  Better yet, tell them they answer to me,” you demanded.
“I couldn’t have made it any more obvious that I’m not gonna do what you tell me,” he frowned, crossing his arms.
“Will you at least cooperate with me enough to get this mission over with?” 
He thought about that for a minute, and you tried not to lose your patience.
“Hmm… no,” he decided finally.
“Then will you shut the fuck up and stay out of my way?” you suggested instead.
He stepped up to you until he was uncomfortably close, and you had to crane your neck to meet his gaze.  He had these really bright blue eyes and they didn’t fit with the rest of his face, which was significantly angrier and grittier.
“Not a chance,” he answered.  But his voice had lost the intimidating tone, and his expression had changed at some point without you noticing… he looked sort of calm, considering the situation, and you realized that he was examining your face.
“You know,” he said suddenly, “you’d be pretty if you weren’t so…” he trailed off.
“Mean?” you finished, having heard this sort of comment more than a few times.
“No, it’s not that.  The mean thing is sorta hot,” he corrected casually as if it were nothing to say.  You bit your lip and broke the eye contact, trying not to blush.  It was a good thing you didn’t find him attractive- because of course you didn’t, him being this dirty brute and all- but still, it was uncomfortable.
“You’d be pretty,” he decided, “if you weren’t a Marine.”
You laughed and shook your head incredulously.
“Yeah, well, maybe you’d be pretty if you shaved that raccoon off your face,” you suggested, “and took a shower.”
You smiled as you left the room.
~
You delayed the mission briefing a day, to give you and the Captain more time to hopefully come to some decision, and you hoped it wouldn’t mean you and your unit had to stay at this camp even just one day longer.  You met with your Marines privately, and they were sympathetic but seemed to be getting along with the other soldiers enough to sympathize with their unwillingness to cooperate.  One soldier said he would only listen to you and not ‘Sy’ as they called him, but you told them to always listen to their commanding officer even if he’s a complete tool.
You were walking back to your quarters for the night when you passed by an open tent, a half-dozen Army boys inside playing cards.
“Hey Major, what size bra do you wear?” a soldier hollered at you, and the others snickered.
“I think they’re bigger than they look in that uniform,” another added.  “Double ‘D’s, at least.”
You stopped and decided to address them, unable to let a comment like that go.
“Oh I’ve got double ‘D’s alright,” you smirked.  “Dishonorable Discharge.”
“Aw, we’re just messing around,” the first dismissed with a frown. “Can’t you take a joke?”
“I can take a joke, but I can take your job, too.  Maybe stay on my good side.”  You winked, just to keep it playful, but you were really screwed either way.  You’d tried playing along with jokes before and all it did was make you seem like some creep and/or slut who liked getting hit on (was this even what that was?) by subordinates.  But getting stern didn’t seem to make you any friends, either.  That’s why you were so comfortable with not having any friends.
“Your good side?  You mean from the back?” one of them murmured, and you wondered if he was trying to be just loud enough for you to hear, or just quiet enough for you not to. 
“Dude, she’s probably a dyke anyway,” Private Lipowitz responded.
“Am I supposed to find that insulting?” you asked him.  He smirked, as did the others, as if it was obvious that you should, but nobody said anything.  “Maybe I am a dyke.  And maybe I could give your girl back home more pleasure in five minutes than you’ve given any woman in your whole life combined, eh Lipowitz?”
“You better not talk about my girl, Major,” he challenged, standing up and puffing up his chest.  “I know you’re not supposed to hit chicks or anything, but seriously, I’ll take out anybody who talks about my girl.”  You decided not to point out that you’re not supposed to hit your commanding officer, ‘chick’ or otherwise.
“Then you better start with your boys first,” you responded, motioning to a few of the other soldiers, “because word on the street is they found those saucy little pictures she sent you.”
Lipowitz turned to the other men with wide eyes, and suddenly you were the only one smiling.  Enlisted seem to talk so much more and so much louder than they realize.
“What the fuck?” he exclaimed, dashing to his pack, presumably searching for those photos.  When he didn’t find them, he stood up and pushed Private Mason back by the shoulders.
“Where are those fucking pictures, dude?”
“I don’t have ‘em, I swear,” Mason defended, but all the other guys were laughing.
“Seriously, guys, whoever has them, just give them back!”
“You’re not going to want them back in the state they’re in,” another finally admitted, “trust me.”
They all burst into laughter as Lipowitz went on a rampage, yelling and kicking and threatening to beat up the other guys.  You took the commotion as a good opportunity to sneak away mostly unnoticed and get back to your quarters for the night.
You weren’t there very long before you decided to spend some time in your temporary office instead.  You had taken your hair out of the tight regulation bun, intending to change into pajamas and go to sleep, but you remembered some paperwork that needed to be done by tomorrow night and decided to make some progress on it, since the Captain got in the way of your productivity during the day.
Of course, you weren’t an hour into it when he knocked on your door, though you didn’t know it was him until you told him to come in without looking up from your files.
He entered but stopped and didn’t say anything.
“Can I help you?” you asked eventually.
“You look different with your hair down,” he observed, and you looked back at him with a confused expression.
“Yes, I’d figure so,” you replied.
“You sleep in your uniform?” he asked, noticing that you were still in your fatigues, though you’d shed the camo long sleeve and just had on the green undershirt.
“Do I look like I’m sleeping?” you asked incredulously, looking back to your papers.  He snorted but didn’t say anything.  "Besides, I don’t think you’re ever in uniform.“
"Not when I don’t have to be,” he shrugged.  “I’m not sure why you wear it when you don’t have to.”
“I barely get taken seriously with it on, so it’s the least I can do,” you explained.
“About that…” he began, and you looked up in surprise. “I’m sorry they give you such a hard time.”
“Oh, I see,” you nodded, getting up from your chair to put some papers in your filing cabinet, “you talked to them and heard some of the awful shit they call me.”
He didn’t say anything.
“Well, you only have yourself to blame for that.  You had plenty of chances to instill respect for authority but you decided it would be more fun, I suppose, to go rogue and turn everyone against me,” you bit back with sarcastic cheeriness.
“Shit, I’m actually trying to be nice to you, and you’re still impossible.  You’re such a fuckin’ brat,” he nearly yelled.  You felt like the word ‘brat’ specifically targeted the fact that you were younger than him, which you didn’t appreciate at all- you would rather be judged on your merits, even if the judgment was poor, than be treated differently just because you were young.
“I’m in charge of you,” you corrected, “and you’re refusing to listen to me.  So, if anything, you’re the brat.”
“What I would give to put you in your place right now,” he growled to himself.
“Oh, my place? And what place is that?”
“Bent over my desk and getting your brains fucked out,” he answered with a deep voice.  
A lot of guys probably fantasized about rough sex (or worse) as a means of revenge against you for all those extra push-ups and boot camp humiliations– a few had even made comments about it, though most hadn’t realized you could hear them at the time.  You’d learned quickly how to not let that stuff get to you.  But this got to you… and not in the way you prepared for.  Your face burned and your gut sank and your insides throbbed, as if out of nowhere.
“I figured you liked your women without brains,” you quipped in reply, trying not to show any signs of weakness.  
He dashed to close the space between you, pressing you back against the wall.  He was so big, and he smelled like sweat and beer and pine.  You were surprised, and confused, but you didn’t worry that he would hurt you, for some reason.
“Seems I like my women with a mouth on ‘em, because every time you make some little comment like that, I swear I get harder than steel.”
He pushed his hips into you and yep, there it was.  Your breaths began to stutter but you didn’t want him to see how much this affected you.
“Just wish you put that mouth to better use,” he added with a devilish grin.
“You’d better get back,” you threatened, without actually mentioning any potential consequences.
“Don’t pretend you don’t want me,” he purred, and leaned down to speak against your ear.  “You’ve thought about it, haven’t you?  I can tell you’re getting turned on when we argue, too.”
“You’re confusing arousal with irritation, Captain.”
“Mmm, I like when you call me that.  I assume the intention is condescending, cause you just have to remind me that you outrank me, but I like it anyway,” he presumed.
“It’s the proper way to address another soldier, nothing condescending about it.  You know, I actually don’t have any problem with your rank.  Or your branch.  My problem is with your personality,” you corrected.
“That’s fair.  I have a big personality,” he smirked, and pressed his erection harder against you… it felt pretty big but you couldn’t get a good impression through your fatigues.
“Well, that might explain your ego,” you murmured.
“Just tell me you don’t want it and I’ll leave you be, we’ll go back to bickering an’ shit,” he offered.  “Just look at me,” he prompted, putting a finger under your chin and guiding you to look up at him, “and tell me you don’t want it.”
As you met his gaze, you let yourself really get a closer look than you had before.  It had always been obvious that he was good-looking, but right now he looked oddly gentle considering the circumstances.  The look in his eyes lacked the confidence you were expecting… as if he really didn’t know if you wanted him or not.  As if he really wanted you to want him.  As if he really wanted you.  And it had been a long time since someone had looked at you like that.
“Fuck it,” you growled and wrapped your arms around his neck, pulling him down into a kiss.  His beard rubbed against your face but it wasn’t as scratchy as you’d imagined- not that you had imagined this or anything.  
He inhaled through his nose and stepped back, pulling you with him and putting a hand on your hair and the other on your hip. 
“Looks like you’ll have to settle for bending me over my desk,” you mumbled against his lips.
“Not gonna bend you over anything yet,” he replied, putting his hands on your butt and lifting you up until you were straddling him in the air.
He walked with you wrapped around him until he could set you down on the desk, and his hands felt so damn big on the small of your waist.
He pulled back so he could pull your shirt over your head, and he took off his own while you slipped off your sports bra.  You both took a moment to stare at each other’s toplessness, a silent acknowledgement that you’d both been wondering about the other’s body.  You ran your hands up and down his chest, and he just looked at you while you did it with a difficult-to-read expression.  Of course you were familiar with muscle, you saw shirtless soldiers all the time and they were all in great shape, but this guy was just enormous.  His shoulders dwarfed you and with him so close you felt uncharacteristically small.
He didn’t say anything as he pulled you into another kiss, and this one was a bit gentler than the last.  You felt giddy and nervous and so desperate for him; you couldn’t remember the last time you felt like this, honestly.
His hands trailed down your back and you slid off the desk until you were standing.  He spun you around and pushed you down between your shoulder blades until you were face down on the desk, the cold wood making your skin break out in goosebumps.
He reached around your hips to open your button and fly, pushing your pants and underwear down to your knees.  You gasped a bit when you felt the air hit your skin.
“Oh shit, you’re wet already,” he noticed.  “Really wet.”
His fingers slipped through your folds and you tried to spread your legs but the pants got in the way.
“Just fuck me,” you demanded.
“All you know how to do is give orders, huh?” he laughed.
“This might be my first order you actually follow,” you considered, hearing him unzip the fly of his jeans.
“I don’t have any condoms,” he explained, “it’s an all-male unit, after all.”
Internally, you wanted to point out that being in an all-male unit doesn’t stop plenty of soldiers from getting it on, and that he shouldn’t be hooking up with anyone in his unit regardless of gender, but you realized this was not the time for explaining rules.
“Don’t need them,” you replied, “as long as you promise you don’t have anything I can catch.”
“You’re being so reckless,” he teased as his hands ran along your back and grabbed your ass, “it’s so unlike you.  What happened to that stubborn little rule-follower, hm?”
“She got really fucking horny,” you growled, “now get inside me, damn it.”
And without much warning, without any preparation, he slammed himself into you all at once.
“Oh fuck!” you cried out, much louder than you meant to.  He was big, really fucking big, and your walls struggled to fit him.  He didn’t slow down though, instantly setting a fast and brutal pace.
“Not so loud, sweetheart.  Not that I don’t love you screamin’ for me.  But if the other guys found out we were doing this…” he trailed off.  “Actually, I bet I’d be the most popular officer at camp if they knew we were doin’ this.”
“You already are,” you pointed out, struggling to focus on forming sentences. “And we’d both get in a lot of trouble– ah, god– if anybody reported it.”
“You’re right.  Better keep you quiet, then,” he sighed, leaning forward and stuffing two fingers into your mouth.  Your moans became sputters and chokes yet you eagerly sucked on his fingers and took them all the way down your throat.
“Fuck, that’s hot,” he growled.  “If you’d deepthroated my fingers like that when we first met, I bet we’d have gotten along a lot better.”
That’s not really the way I do business, you wanted to respond, but you couldn’t say much when you were busy with the task at hand.
His fingers pulled out and you felt his hands wrap around your elbows.   He grabbed your arms and held them back as he slammed into you so hard that the desk scraped across the floor with every movement.
“So tight,” he observed.  “Bet no one’s done this to you in a long time. Bet what you always needed was a good fuck to loosen you up– literally.”
He landed a hard slap against your ass and you moaned.
“Oh, you like that?  You like it when I hit you?”
“Yes,” you answered through bared teeth.
“Dirty little slut,” he said, but the way he said it sounded more like a compliment than an insult.
He spanked you again, just a bit harder, and you yelped but found yourself pushing your hips into him and arching your back as an invitation for more.  He grabbed your hips and pulled you closer, pressing as deep inside you as was physically possible and grinding against you.  You sobbed and he grabbed you by the hair, pulling you up until his chest was against your back.
“Anybody ever been this deep inside you before?” he asked, his lips right against your ear.
“No,” you whimpered.
“Fuck, baby,” he moaned, leaving open-mouthed kisses along your neck down to your shoulder.  You weren’t sure how to feel about him calling you ‘baby.’
He let go of your hair but kept you close to him by wrapping his arms around you as he started to thrust again.  It was oddly intimate, and your head fell back onto his shoulder as you moaned and sighed and whimpered.
Calloused hands began to grab at your breasts, teasing and pinching your nipples; you hadn’t realized how sensitive you were there, because it sent sensation shooting straight down to your inner walls.
“I’m close,” you gritted out.
“That was quick.  You’re easy to please,” he replied, and you could hear the grin in his voice.
“Just don’t stop,” you pleaded.  He pushed you back down onto the desk and began to pick up the pace.
“Oh, I won’t stop, I promise you that.” His voice sounded different than normal- deeper and scratchier and oddly weak in a way.  You liked the idea that this had such an effect on him.
His thrusts slammed into you so hard and fast that you were sure you’d have bruises from it, and probably on your thighs where they were hitting the edge of the desk.  For some reason, that thought was what sent you over the edge.
“Ca-captain!” you cried out as you came, and he growled a bit against your ear.  You figured he thought you were calling him that as some sort of sexy nickname, a flash of authority, but it’s just the only thing you could think to call him, the only thing you’d ever really called him.  
He, on the other hand, responded with your first name, even though you’d never gone by it and never even told it to him, mixed in with his grunts and moans as he pulled out and came all over your back.  
It was strange to go from so much noise– skin hitting skin, moans and yelps, the desk screeching on the concrete floor– to just heavy breathing and the sound of the ceiling fan spinning above you.  Or maybe it was you that was spinning; you felt sort of dizzy and numb.
He leaned away from you until you couldn’t feel his touch anywhere, and you heard him zip up his jeans.  You awkwardly lifted yourself off the desk, pulling up your own underwear and pants as well, and looking around for something to wipe yourself off with.
“Did you come?” he asked, and you felt shame and fear and anger bubble up inside you.  This had been a really, really bad idea, and both of you could lose your jobs over it, or worse. And he was such an asshole and you were supposed to be setting a good example for the women in your unit and here you were with some Army dumbass’ cum all over you and he didn’t even have the courtesy to make sure you’d finished before he did… what a joke.
“Oh, I came alright– came to my fucking senses.  Get out of my office,” you barked.
He laughed like he saw all this coming.
“Your office?  It’s my base.  Everything here is mine.  Even that jizz you’ve got on ya,” he grimaced.  “Kickin’ me out before it’s even gone cold.  You’re a real ray of sunshine as always, Major.”
“That’s the first time you’ve called me Major,” you realized. “Let’s make that the only thing done tonight that we turn into a habit, alright?”
He shrugged and turned to leave, but of course, he had to have the last word.  “You can fuck the ice queen but you can’t melt her, I guess.”
“Is that what this was?  Some sort of sexual scavenger hunt, to prove you were macho enough to get the prude to spread her legs?”
“Well, it worked didn’t it?” he grinned.
“I said get out,” you reminded him, hoping he’d leave before you started crying.  He did.
You didn’t cry very often, not something you had the luxury of doing after a decade at war.  And you still didn’t let yourself do it for very long, because you were morally opposed to crying over boys.

7 years - one of the best day's of my life.
(I always thought it was July *insert dates* but since the occasion of the anniversary I had to look back at the photo in where the girl holds a weapon of a doctor and it read it said June...
- I've decided to make this now because the actual day will cripple me..)
(Edit: on June 1st ill send this... But not the actual date because i will be not online or responding.)
.

Dear ,loml,Girl,Freind, Lauren,Rose
I had a mental break down on our third day in the cinema in where because I wanted to make you happy for the rest of your life, but i knew i wouldn't be able to so i left to the best of my ability to get out of your life because i knew that i would probably be the reason you never are as happy as I've always wanted you to be....
In the movie(tfios) tjis was reinforced i relaized within all disillusions of reality in my terrible mental state of mind that the only way hazel grace gor her happyness Augusts had to not be in her picture anymore.
i will have to let you go completely and it's gonna be extremely difficult for me to do that as you were and still are the girl i thought id marry and spend the rest of my life with... But the times they are changin' *blows a humonaca * Remember me to one who lives there... She once was a true love of mine.
So i decided it was for the best to cutt the ropes to the reinforced bridge and let it collapse under it's own weight and oh man it was an ugly and it hurt to watch it implode but it had to, i wasn't doing any better within my fight but i was about to be knocked down more than I could ever realise.
Maybe i can work on myself and try this therapy thing but they only told me i was depressed and there wasn't enough criteria to help with my other issues that i know was wrecking my life...
I was hoping you would stick around but i forced you away, i didn't want to hurt you as my demons were eating my mind that's the last thing i would want is to hurt you ever in anyway shape or form...
I wished everyday to hold you in my arms like the days previously so i hugged my pillow and cried till there wasnt any tears...
i don't like touch expect handshakes
I never even liked kissing my girlfriend's in person but you made me want to feel every inch bump and scar every little last part of you because you made me fit back together with one hug...and I've never felt so alive...
We never got to look under the stars by a camp fire with smores all cuddled up in a sleeping bag watching stars on your roof but you would of told me stories of the universe...
I would of told you how when i look to the stars i see the same beauty as you... those stars still do that.
I would of hoped you would of told me your life story that i never wanted to know because i knew it was rough, maybe you might of seen why i never spoke about mine in fear of traumatising you...
One day when dying your hair You asked me if i liked i blonde hair or black hair i didn't care as long as you were happy but I remember saying something like but your gonna have to dye your hair as i thought it was naturally black and you corrected me to say you were a natural blonde.. I could see you in your long blonde hair down to the knees and smile loaded to kill and that it does now, you would of had some books in hand on the way to your writers den log cabin the back woods of Washington or Oregon woods with a fireplace to make tea and write the book you wanted to make and i hope you write still... I stopped because it hurt to much.
Your smile even in black hair made me feel like this life was worth living and with a it cutt deeper -*sentence reacted*- then *redacted*
I waited years for my next trip to America and the day i would break news to you that i was coming and more so to co and i hoped it would be one day but i got three and i am forever grateful.
I remember hiding behide the door because I wanted to surprise you, and man you jumped through the roof then suffocated me with arms and played with my hair no one has ever done anything remotely close to that ever since as i want to keep my distance with everyone... Three days later i had to go to ohio ugh midwest family trump voters, the door was open and i didn't have time to knock i just had to go we had an hour before the flight and i was granted 5 minutes i had and would of hoped you would of known my voice i called out, i hadn't relaized with my undiagnosed autsim i caused you a panic attack and I'm truly sorry i caused you pain in anyway as you told me a year later and i was truly shocked my fear of hurting you had happened and even when i thought it was safe to rebuild a bridge it wasn't because i knew i couldn't control my actions... I was unstable and i had to leave again.
Back to the 5 mins on day 4 I told you i had to go but i never said goodbye Because to me it wasn't goodbye it was till we meet again... I was hoping shortly in the sense but i knew it might be awhile longer but not 7 fucking- *reacted*
I gave you the gifts i wanted on the first day but it was better to wait...
I gave you chocolate to remember the sweet taste of life.
I gave my favourite t-shirt to snuggle even with a dot of blood from my shaved face for those conservtives in the Midwest.
I gave you the weapon of the doctor to keep you safe when i couldn't be there.
I gave you an anchor necklaces to remind you that you calm the seas that are rough, and you wore it to your home coming with your blue prom dress oh man you were the girl id take to my ball/prom/home coming dance that's why i never attended mine.
I gave you a hallowed book to well at the time ultimately keep secrets in the library of old books and i was hoping it was big enough for the sonic screw driver but ultimately it would hold whatever secrets the girl wished to hide.
I gave you tea to help keep you warm and calm on those lonely bitter cold winter days, the lemon grass and ginger warms the soul and cleans.
I remember in my last turn away the hazel eye's of a girl and i saw the universe, i saw her long blonde hair and i want to make into French braids I don't know how to braid but I'd learn anything if you asked me to within reason... Because i have a few disabilities but I would try to do what ever i had to... In 2013 with my time to heal i was told to make some goals for my life...and here is some of them...
* go to college and get a degree (I spent 3 years working and trying to figure out what to do and 3 years doing it achieving this in 2018*)
* get a good job (*i got this this year because in 2019 i was diagnosed with high functioning autism and it made me spiral into doom where everything that happened to me made sense like why the kids use to call me Sheldon Cooper)
I just wanted a girl not any other girl but the girl who I found through a mutual tumblr and my word... 2012 what a year...
I have very few things left on this list and I have to make peace with that and i don't like looking up at the stars anymore but i know your on the other side of the world looking at the *more or less/slightly different* same stars.
I have a tattoo planned for you but I don't want you to know what one is you but I'm sure you're know.
You always had a way to see right through me so my re-creation my look of style was born from your vision for me with the twist of capt was my favourite avengure hes super human nothing more then enhancing his ability. I just tried to be a good man and ultimately I don't want you to feel bad for anything because your already as cute as i wanted you to become and now it's my turn to evolve and since working
I've been able to I must work out at the gym i must go to uncomfortable places,deal to my own problems one at a time little by little and i would hope by the time you read this I'm on new meds for my issues and funny how money can't buy happiness but it can buy me temporary relief but when I return whenever that is... if you are still out there wherever you are i want you to know i that.... live your life and you told me you don't want nothing to do with me so i will go my separate way, but i will always be here for you...
I thought id reach a few weeks ago because I had my first time went manic in 3 years but I couldn't control it i was stuck in mania for two weeks i tried tell you but I said things i never I asked the answers to things racing through my head... Amd now i have to live with the answers i feared and I alreday knew to be true i didn't want to know it i wanted to keep my dreams of being with you one last time this time the right time and you could of seen the man i wish i was, I'm just stuck in the middle of all these things...
Ultimately i want you to know that no matter what comes my way I've keep breathing I've never self harmed since promising you and my biggest trial is yet to start and your words haunt me but they must be the only words in my brain that aren't mine that i know aren't mine and I tried to keep my tabs on you to make sure that you were okay i didn't know if you would ever want to hear from me as the last thing i herd was i give you panic attacks and axiterty and now you give me panic attacks and axiterty.... I don't worry about them because you mean so much to me and don't worry about me I'll be okay eventually I'm in my final stages of evolution and I'm just a tad slow to catchup...
I've recently found out i have extremely flat feet that's why i gave up sports and couldn't run very far without pain and now i glasses to see clearly with an eye stigisim in where the over bearing load of one eye being more powerful has thrown my body... It is only the beginning finally and ultimately not the end but a beginning.
I'm sorry it's taken me so long to try get back to reality... It just so happens all my medical conditions from birth really fucked up my mental health.
I'm glad you are free and happy... I ju-*redacted*
If you ev-*redacted*
I'm *redacted*
I've been stuck in space for to long and now I'm grounded I'm trying to repair our friendship...
Edit 3: I've been referred to the hospital, it would appear that i was depressing myself to cope to turn my brain off from reailty and with my truma of bullying for years at schooling that ultimately fucked me over as when trying to revist reality causes me to be manic and psychosis with visual hulusnate....i had asthma and so i could never get deep enough breaths to recenter myself during axiterty attacks and i stopped taking them because i didn't need them for fitness but i needed them for my panjc attacks that then led to my depression that i didn't take my medications for just breathing fucking air.
It's funny how everything has intertwined it's self into my life of old...and my new live...
A girl that isn't the same person i once knew said You have to be brave enough to get your diagnosis, I'm scared but i know that i must.
I'll be o -
I'll be okay...
*tears*
I wish i knew all my issues sooner before they come back haunt me but i never had all the answers and now i do...
7 years on from... (because i know the date... *the day we...)
I'm burning a sun to say goodbye.
I finally can say goodbye to you. If not in person but the only way I can.
This isn't a suicide letter.
I'm sorry
I *redacted*
I don't *redacted*
Don't *redacted*
..
Yours
Always Charlie,the Beautiful Mind,
RlF
Personal Sidenote;
I would of mailed a letter but I have no address.
I would of called but i never got a phone number.
Burn after reading...
i might write you a letter sometime again but I haven't decided when to as this is something I've wanted to do for years but didn't know what I'd say to you without hurting either of us.
