#flings with other men; when the one he's close with is jealous of the one who's just asked yuichi out and tells yuichi to not come to the

okay, it seems reading from the “oh dear all those people are so fucked up” angle paid off, i’m barely 41 pages in (vs the book’s 428, that’s Nothing) but look at this quote (pgs 39, 41-42):
It happened that there was a black mirror stand opposite Yuichi. The round mirror had been knocked askew by the robe of someone walking past it, but there on its back, as it were, it reflected full in the face of Yuichi. While they talked, Yuichi felt as if his own face stared at him from time to time.
(...) All the while Yuichi was taken with the face of the beautiful youth that stared at him out of the mirror in the lamplight. The deep, mournful eyes under the intelligent brows stared fixedly in hsi direction.
Yuichi Minami tasted the mystery of that beauty. The face he had always known, filled with the energy of youth, carved with the depth of masculinity, bearing the unhappy bronze substance of youth -- it was his own. Until now Yuichi had felt only loathing in his consciousness of his own beauty. The beauty of the boys he loved, on the other hand, filled him with longing. As men in general do, Yuichi forbade himself ever to believe that he was beautiful. But the fervent praise of this old man before him now rang in his ears; and that artistic poison, the powerful poison of his words, loosened those inhibitions that had persisted so long. He now permitted himself to believe that he himself was beautiful. Now for the first time Yuichi saw himself in all his beauty. Within that little round mirror appeared the face of a surprisingly beautiful youth he had never seen before. The manly lips exposed a row of white teeth that involuntarily broke into a smile.

But hsr men who are the gomez to Morticia vibes, who are just absolutely enamored with their partner and their partner is just as in love with them
YES SO MUCH!! I love their dynamic (pls ignore the header quality)
I can just imagine Argenti, Sampo, Aventurine and Boothill being like this in a relationship.

You don't ever get jealous, not even a little. You're both so in love with each other after all, what's there to worry about?
If anything, when you're getting hit on by someone else, the other joins in on the flirting and before you know it the rando just leaves because of the weird vibes alone.
-----
You support each other, a lot. Always cheering on the other no matter what, sometimes even for the most trivial things.
It's not an uncommon sight to see one of you shout encouraging words while the other is flipping an egg in the morning.
You read each other very well! Even without words you can understand each other with just vibes alone.
You come back home after an exhausting day? He's already next to you without a word, holding a cup of hot beverage, ready to rub your shoulder and listen to you rants
He comes home after an exhausting day? You've already drawn a bath and prepared some snacks for him to eat afterwards while you dry his hair
-----
You fight so incredibly well with each other too! Even if you've never fought alongside him before
It all just comes to you naturally, you've got an opening? He's got your back and vice versa.
Maybe you take turn turns, one protecting while the other attacks. Or maybe you just both go batshit crazy and kill everyone 👍
Amidst the chaos of battle you sometimes share subtle displays of love, maybe a small kiss or just holding each other's hand the whole time. Everyone's too busy getting their asses kicked to notice tbh
Together, you're an unstoppable force to be reckoned with. Most people will flee even just seeing you both in each other's vicinity.
-----
You know each other very well, even the things you don't talk about.
You know that game where the bride and groom are sitting back to back and they have to answer questions about each other to see if they know each other well? You ace it. Full confidence.
-----
You trust each other a lot!
Need him to be your driver guy while you raid a billionaire's estate? Sure!
Need him to catch you in case you fall while flinging yourself onto a fire breathing dragon to kill it? He gotchu
Need his blood for a ritual to summon a god who may either destroy the entire planet you're on or help you? He's in.
You don't even have to explain why you need it, his hand's already outstretches and he's reaching for his knife someone stop him-
You: "I only needed a little..."
Him: "(with a large pool of blood under him) Oh"

I wasn't actually planning to write for this but uhhhh.....life happens

I love possessive men so can I ask for jealousy headcanons with Nanami Sukuna and Gojo? What they do when someone gets a lil tooooo close with their crush/partner? Hehe 😜
— WHEN THEY ARE JEALOUS
includes Gojo, Nanami, and Sukuna
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ᴀ/ɴ: ohoho let us love possessive men together my dear also i am feeling silly send help
Tumblr media
GOJO SATORU:
he trusts you a ton (obviously)
and he is pretty secure in himself and knows that you love him 🫶
AND he is very secure about your relationship—
okay who the fuck is that
okay fuck acting unbothered and fuck that guy who is talking to you
what do you mean?
he is totally okay, what’s wrong about him suddenly slipping a hand around your waist and resting his head on you?
he is glaring at the “poor” boy?
NONSENSE YOUR HONOR
but seriously he just gets sour that you aren’t paying attention to him, like screw the other person he doesn’t care about them
HE WANTS YOU YOU YOU
“y/n-san, I can always come back another time so we can discuss the details of the mission,” the man in front of you insists rather nervously.
you tilt your head, “it’s better if we discuss it now though? so we can be more prepared!”
the man fumbles with his words before finally blurting out, “a-actually I think I should go! B-BYE!” he squeals before sprinting out of your sight.
you sigh, head snapping behind you to the culprit of the man’s fright.
“satoru!” you scold.
said man takes his blindfold off, to look you directly in the eyes, “I did nothing! I swear on my dignity!”
“you don’t have any.”
gojo pouts preposterously before sighing and flinging his arms around theatrically, “oh how am I supposed to feel or act when my lover’s attention isn’t on me?”
“you could just wait until I am done,” you grumble and he waves his hand in dismissal.
“sugarboo—“ “don’t call me that.” “sugarboo, my need for attention is like thirst for water, it should be satisfied at the very same moment.”
your hand rests on your hip and gojo can sense a snarky and witty remark coming from a mile away, “if that’s the case then you shouldn’t be ‘thirsty’ for attention right now because we were cuddling an hour ago.”
“wait what.”
you give your back to him and wave your hand, mocking him, “I will see you in three days!”
you hear hurried steps getting closer to you before long arms wrap themselves around you, “oh come on, honey; don’t be so mean!”
you hold his chin, “thought you liked it when I am mean?”
“when did I ever say that?” he asks, eyes brimming with curiosity.
you turn to him, arms making their way around his neck, “lo and behold, one day when the great gojo satoru got drunk—“
“oh no,” he mumbles, knowing he is doomed.
“—he said, oh so passionately! ‘you’re like super hot when you cuss or be mean to me!‘“
gojo rolls his eyes, smirking, “got me thinkin’ you had something awful over me, sweets,” he hums.
he pulls you even closer and a grin makes its way to his face when you yelp, “I don’t mind admitting that when I am sober.”
“you’re so hot when you’re mean, makes me want to get on my knees and beg.”
at your speechless form, gojo lets go, satisfied with what he has done.
“I will see you later, sweet cheeks!”
you = 🤡
gojo = 🤡
🤡+🤡= 🫶
NANAMI KENTO:
i dont think he is a jealous guy
sure he might get a little irritated when someone takes your attention away for a little too long but what can he do
your life your choices and he shouldn’t interfere unless someone is making you uncomfortable
speaking of which, his six sense of “a little bitch is approaching my lover” is tingling right now ✨
you were in a club, surprisingly enough to some people.
a rather difficult mission was finally completed and it was very much successful so you and nanami settled on going to a club to drink a little and have a change of mood.
he swears he could listen to you giggle and ramble for hours, “you look radiant today, love.”
nanami’s hand brushes the hair out of your face and you smile shyly, “thank you, kento! I wore the dress you got me last week!” you chirp and he nods.
he already knows that you will look great in anything, but seeing you in it was a different story; you are a treat to the eye, an absolute sight for sore eyes.
you hear him sigh, a smile on his face when you look at him which makes you smile back, “what’s got our reliable sorcerer nanami on cloud nine?”
“none other than you,” he replies swiftly before standing up leaving you flustered; he presses a light kiss to your forehead, “I will get a drink, give me a moment.”
sometimes he forgets, he isn’t the only one who thinks you’re stunning because once he turns once again to your direction, a man is already there, seemingly drunk, and is too close for comfort.
nanami walks back to your table, slamming the cup down, just loud enough to catch the guy’s attention but not the others.
“got a problem, punk?” the drunk man slurs and nanami sighs, what a night this has become.
he replies back nonetheless, “you’re making my lover uncomfortable; I would appreciate if you went away.”
the guy laughs, “what d’ya mean?” his arms aiming to wrap itself around you, “me and this cutie were actually having fun—“
he is yanked roughly by the collar and pulled to the ground; nanami is now right by your side, pushing your head gently to his chest and you wrap your arms around him.
“I am not one for words of this nature but, scram out of here.”
nanami = 🤺
you = 🛐
za guy = 🫃
RYOMEN SUKUNA:
it isn’t jealousy as much as it’s possessiveness
like my guy is so confident that you will never leave him and that he satisfied your every need 😭✋
big words for a guy who can’t use a phone without scratching it everywhere
speaking of said nails
i have lost count how many people they sliced
👏👏 example of said slicing ahead
“m-my lord, there has been—“
sukuna groans, “speak clearly.”
the servant jolts in place, “y-yes my lord!” he starts all over again, “there has been a situation with the new village?…”
sukuna is getting irritated and anyone with one braincell can sense that. sadly, our dear guy only has half and all its power was channeled to admiration at the moment.
sukuna isn’t dumb, he knows that guy is lovestruck by something, so he turns his head towards the direction the servant is looking at so speechless and is rendered silent himself.
for multiple reasons.
you were adorned in a kimono, the finest fabric wrapped neatly around your body, and your face void of makeup save for the slight redness on your lip.
“hey ‘kuna!” you greet him and he hums before patting your head.
he ,sparing a mere glance at the servant, slices him into 6 slices that fall to the ground.
the room is silent for a bit before you speak up, “dude seriously?”
sukuna, the feared king of curses, pouts, “don’t call me that.”
“no like seriously, do you know how many people you have sliced because they looked at me?”
he dismisses the question, “‘don’t care.”
“we could make an actually human salad at this point.”
he gags, “it will taste disgusting and filthy, I am warning you.”
“honey, that’s literally the last thing I am worried about.”
he pulls you to his lap, his hands resting on your waist, “don’t you look extravagant, today.”
“wow big words.”
“I will push you off; don’t test me.”
sukuna= 😐
you=😇
the servant= 👱‍♂️🦵🦵💪💪

OKAY FIRST OF ALL HEY BABY IVE MISSED YOU SO MUCH
And yesssss I see the update where you’re writing for killing stalking!!! 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩 literally going to die I’m so happy
BUT OKAY, a chubby reader (yk your girl thicc 🤪) yandere/toxic relationship/SMUTTT with Sangwoo where he cheats on Y/n all the time but she’s cocky because he always comes back to them. Then one day Sangwoo gets upset by Y/n’s cockiness and he teaches her a lesson…..
I LOVE YOU BABE AND MUAHHH I MISSED YOU
LOSING YOU
OH SANGWOON X FEM!CHUBBY!READER
cw: degrading, dubcon, implied kidnapping, references to murder, infidelity, he’s just super mean and weird, jealousy, threats of murder
a/n: this one is so fucking late and i’m sorry but i did it! this is going to flop because i never post and it’s a weird one so reblog please i love you
Tumblr media
“Y/N? You awake?”
Of course you are, you always wait for him.
“Yes. You’re back late.”
Your voice was quiet with fatigue, but he could hear you alright as he removed his clothes and dropped them beside the bed. You had your back to him, but you could hear the soft thud of his jeans coming down to the hardwood floor, you could hear his shirt land on the edge of the bed. The house was eerily quiet when he wasn’t there, you didn’t like when he was gone. He always came back though. Always.
“Yeah, I was talking to this girl, Jieun. She goes to the same university as me.”
He lifted the covers and slotted himself behind you, your ass tucked right into his crotch, and he slung his big arm across your chest. You could smell him, he reeked of alcohol and girl. You’re sure if you turned around you would see his neck littered in hickeys, the top of his shoulders covered in nail marks. It was the same every time he went out, but what did that matter?
Those girls may think they’ve done it, gotten sangwoo to ’open up’, show them the ‘real him’, but they’re wrong. They’re all wrong. Only you know sangwoo, the real him. He probably tells all those girls about some version of his tragic past, his abusive father, his suicidal mother, and they think they know all there is to know about him. Until the next day and there’s parts of them rotting in sangwoo’s trunk.
You know everything. And you love him anyway. You are the only one for him, and you know it. He always comes back. You know he belongs to you. With you. He needs you like air, every day he comes home and fucks you like an animal, holds you tight, kisses you, he’s even soft with you, real sappy and disgusting. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that he likes you a lot, he just... has a short attention span. You’re all he thinks of when he gets home, and it’s not like he really thinks about the other girls. You know it means less than nothing to him with them, and that’s all that matters. And when they’re dead afterwards, there no competition of who he likes more. You were never a jealous type anyway.
“I had sex with her in the men’s bathroom. From behind, against the wall. Then up against the mirror.”
Well, that was new.
“Oh?” you said, ”Did you have fun?”
He never told you the details of his flings, he just didn’t try to hide them, so this was strange. Maybe it was a close call with the authorities and he’s anxious about it.
You feel an curt exhale on your back.
“Of course I had fun. She’s not dead if that’s what you’re thinking. We just fucked.”
Why was sangwoo being so strange?
“Ok,” you turned around to face him, still in his hold. You noticed it’s getting tighter. Just as you thought, you could see blotchy pink hickeys on his neck in the dimming light. His face was neutral, unreadable looking down at you. You can’t lie, he was intimidating like this. To survive sangwoo, to live with him, you have to read him, and read him you cannot.
“Are you alright sangwoo?”
“Obviously,” he snapped, before sighing,
”Don’t you even want to have sex?”
You nearly laughed, but it’s in your best interest not to.
“You mean right now? Aren’t you tired?”
“No I’m not tired!” his voice booms, and you flinch against the covers.
He rolled you over to your back and now he loomed above you, something burning in his eyes. His hands were either side of your face, and his knees caged in your body, tapering in at the thighs, pushing the fat around to a near painful squeeze.
“Whats wrong with you? Aren’t you angry? I fucked someone else, stupid bitch.”
Mouth slightly agape, you tried to process. You didn’t even react to the name calling anymore, although the throb of hurt would never go away.
“You want me to be angry with you?”
“No, of course I don’t. I just want to know why you’re so ok that I cheated on you.”
You had absolutely no idea what was going on, and you were afraid to ask.
Isn’t this every mans dream? A girl that doesn’t care when he sleeps around? What’s his problem?
“Sangwoo...” you breathed, struggling to find the words. You were so confused.
“You always come back,” you wait a second, and when he doesn’t seem to be appeased, you continue, “I don’t care because you always come back to me. I know you like me best, that’s all I care about.”
His frown falters, momentarily, before a meaner, colder look takes his face. In the darkness he’s still beautiful and terrifying.
He hated that you make him burn. Sangwoo doesn’t burn for anyone, he burns people. And yet, everything about you is so... he can’t put it into words how he needs you. The thought of you with another man makes him close to violence, very close. So why can’t you do the same? Why don’t you care? He knows you love him, he isn’t an idiot. But... you aren’t showing it how he wants. Maybe you’ve gotten a little too comfortable. Maybe he needs to rectify that.
“You think I need you that much?” his voice had dropped an octave, gotten quieter. You knew to be careful now.
“No, but-“
“You do, don’t you? You think I’m your lovesick puppy? You think you’re in control?”
“Sangwoo, you’re not-“
“Don’t try and deny it.” his face was blank, totally blank, eyes boring into yours. He stares at you a while longer, and when he got no reply, he continued.
“Well, you’re wrong Y/N. I don’t need you. You need me.”
“I know Sangwoo, I do need you,” your voice shook, heat of the bed doing nothing to quell the cold creeping up your spine.
“Do you think you’re the only one that makes me cum?”
“No, but-“
“But I’m the only one that makes you cum?”
“Well, yes-“
“So what are you so smug about? Get up.”
He leant back, away from you to let you obey him, and got up slowly, towering above you. He stood expectantly, and you stared up at him from the mattress, not quite sure what to think.
“I said, get up,” his tone was sharp, it was hard to disobey.
You pushed yourself up as fast as you could manage, rocking gently to your feet. Your arms hung awkwardly at your sides, you weren’t sure what to do with yourself. His glare was unforgiving, but you couldn’t deny the throb in your clit at the anticipation.
“Turn around.”
And you did, a thrill running through your body. You were still stood stock still when he pried your arms from your sides and he pushed you against the wall, body pressing up against you. It hurt a little, but he was quick to make you forget.
Hands gripping your waist, he ground himself against your plump ass. Your hands were in front of you, bracing yourself against the wall. You made chopped breaths and little whimpers as he groaned into your skin, getting more and more annoyed at you; you drive him insane, why are you so calm? Why can’t you be like he is? You should be stupider, need him more. What the fuck is wrong with you?
He stopped grinding his erection on you all of a sudden, grip not relaxing for a second. Your eyes darted around the icy dark, heart thundering in your chest, face still against the wall.
“Sangwoo...” you whimpered, and he could feel the heart beat of your fat little pussy, “please, keep going.”
He huffed from his nose and his breathe ran down you neck once again.
“Then beg.”
Tears pricked your eyes as you stopped to process what he had said.
“Are you deaf? I told you to beg. Beg for me if you really want me that bad. Prove it.”
“Oh!”, you started as it clicked in your head, and the throbbing of your pussy became insatiable,”Please Sangwoo! Please, give it to me, please! I need you, please!”
He smiled at the whininess in your voice, the desperation. The need.
“I still don’t know if you deserve it,” he had taken on a playful tone now, temper seemingly subdued by your little display.
“Sangwoo!” you whined in protest, desperately pushing back into him. He groaned breathily at the feeling of your ass pressed right into him, the fat cushioning his cock teasingly.
His dick throbbed and he gave in,
“Fine, I’ll give it to you. You really are pathetic you know that?”
And he yanked down your tiny little pyjama shorts, to find your bare pussy underneath.
“Anything I tell you to do you do it.”
Your eyes squeezed shut and you yelped when he delivers a sharp slap between your legs, spread awkwardly open for him against the wall.
“But you still act like your better than me.”
He pressed against the small of your back with one hand, keeping you squashed tightly against the wall, chubby cheeks squishing at the pressure. With the other hand, he hastily undid the zip of his jeans, pulling them down around his thighs. Erection bobbing against your bare ass, he pulled his boxers down to his jeans and you stifled a whimper at the anticipation.
He always got weird like this when he was angry, and mostly you just had to stick it through. He would calm down after he had had his way with you.
Slowly, he lined up, relishing in the little whimpers coming from you. And he pushed in, groaning at how fucking wet you were. It was nearly impossible to go slow, you were so soft and he was angry at you, and yet he did, for fear he would cum too quick if he didn’t.
“You’re not better than me, alright?”
You huff, the stretch of his thick cock making you tense.
“Alright?”
“Yes,” you whined through pouty, drooly lips,”I’m not better than you. I’m sorry Sangwoo, I’m really sorry.”
“tsk,” he gives you one grind of his hips, nestling his enormous cock into you,”You’re just saying that ‘cause you want me to fuck you.”
“No! That’s not it.”
Tears were blurring your vision and you fought with your entire being not to moan, feeling his fat dick rub warm against your insides. He was moving ever so slightly to torment you, make you feel guilty for wanting to moan like a bitch when your poor boyfriend was so upset at you. You knew you had to keep talking, because he still wasn’t moving, and the feeling was enough to drive you mad.
“I love you, Sangwoo, I promise, it’s not-“
But suddenly, he started drawing in and out of you, not slow but not fast either. You let out a gasp of relief, and he smirks behind you.
“Alright, that’s enough outta you. Just take my dick like a good slut. Ohh fuck-“
You squeezed hard and his hips stuttered, pace increasing involuntarily.
He fucked hard into your gummy cunt, and you dripped down onto his balls. Eyes rolling back, he let out a string of grunts right next to your ear, making you shudder.
“See how I got you?” he said breathlessly, gripping the fat of your waist so hard it will probably bruise. The feeling of his breath against your neck made your stomach flip.
“This is just how I was fucking her,” and he drove into you again, grunting.
“I’m fucking you just like I was fucking her.”
You can only whine in response, something he takes as dismay. It pleased him.
“She was tighter,” his balls slap on your clit,”Not such a whore.”
Drool is inched past you lips, but you’ve gone limp in his grasp, only able to brace yourself against the wall. You heard him, but you’re unable to think about what he’s saying. You mumbled,”yeah, yeah, yeah”, he likes to be listened to.
“Maybe I should just get rid of you and keep her instead, maybe she’d be more fucking grateful”
Your breath hitched and there’s a sinking feeling in your stomach. You froze, and he laughed.
“That got your attention, didn’t it?”
You whined as his cock ploughed against your insides, cheek mushing against the wall. But that sinking feeling got deeper.
“Shit,” he hissed, his pace slowing,”I’m gonna cum. I’m gonna cum inside you.”
You hummed, still panting.
That feeling of dread didn’t fade. It didn’t fade when he came inside you, gruff grunting and a punishing grip on your waist. It didn’t fade as he pulled out, let go of you and let you fall to the ground. It didn’t fade as you felt his presence behind you, staring down at the top of your head.
And it didn’t fade as he walked away, back into bed, called you to him like he loved you. Told you that he loved you, kisses your temple.
And as you crawled into his arms, shaken, sweating, Sangwoo smiles. You need him to keep you alive.
You need him.
His hand rested over your chest, he could feel your heart rate. He could feel your fear. And it made him happy.
You were as afraid of losing him as he was of losing you.

Nothing sucks more than feeling like the unattractive one of the friendship group, and what makes it worse is the fact you know for sure that with the boys especially, they're not even the slightest bit innocent. How could they be when they're literally the most attractive men you've ever laid eyes on?
Especially Yeosang. 
Who's been such a close friend for years, you know everything that's happened with him even if it didn't come out of his mouth. It made you so jealous, and insecure. It's saddening in your eyes that you've only ever gone as far as to kiss someone, not ever having the trust there with anyone to let it get any further. Not having trust in them and yourself, not knowing if you'd be impressive anyway.
That's all you can think about, especially when Yeosang's phone constantly pings with notifications when you're trying to focus on the game of Mario Kart but the notifications get you dangerously curious as to what's going on in his life. 
 "Someone's popular." You quip, nudging his shoulder lightly as his character on the game goes slightly off the track. 
"What was that for, look, I'm 5th place now! And I don't want to be, I wish my phone would stop for at least an hour." He smiles back, the smile slowly fading into a slight frown as he rolls his eyes at the next notification sound to come through.
“Seriously what has your phone going off like that?” 
“It’s the dating apps I haven’t used in a while, I keep getting matches and they just won’t stop messaging me.” He sighs trying to put more of his focus into the game.
“You’re on dating apps?” You scoff, you couldn’t believe a guy like him would need a dating app all he has to do is step outside and he has women falling at his feet. 
“Have you had much luck dating wise from them?” His eyes widen at your question and his cheeks flush with a light shade of pink.
“Umm...Well...” He’s trying to find the most vague way to describe it to you but he couldn’t think of anything other than the blunt truth.
“Put it this way...I don’t use them for dating.” 
“Well if you don’t use them for dating why do you have them?” He clears his throat before answering you.
“I use them to get laid, it’s a lot easier than going to a club, but like I said I haven’t been on them in a while.”  
“It’s that easy?” You ask scoffing again. 
“I guess so, I just swiped for a few hours a day and matches were made.”
“You didn’t think you could potentially date any of these girls?” 
“Nah, I was looking for girls who were just up for a fling, a one night stand.” You were quiet after listening to him explain, your insecurities coming back. He made it sound so easy like all you had to do was push a few buttons and there you go, a new girl in your bed every week. But you knew it wasn’t that simple, Yeosang was gifted with a pretty face, smooth voice and sweet mannerisms, but you on the other hand was awkward and couldn’t help but stutter when a cute guy spoke to you, if they spoke to you that is. 
The sadness was weighing down on you and you started to loose focus in the game, your character dropping from 1st to 7th quickly. Yeosang noticed how you weren’t playing so well and looked over to you, seeing the melancholy look on your face.
“What’s up?” He asked, giving your shoulder a little bump with his but gaining no answer from you. Nudging you again and with still no answer he puts his controller down and sits facing you.
“Yeo you’re gonna lose if you don’t move.” You say quietly, trying to will your focus back into the game.
“I don’t care, tell me what’s up, you’re all quiet and glum now.”
“It’s nothing.” You answer simply, but unlucky for you Yeosang knows you like the back of his hand, he knew it wasn’t nothing. Pausing the game he takes your controller from your hand and sets it down next to his. You look up at him confused and he grabs the sides of your legs to move you to face him.
“Y/n, tell me what’s bothering you.”
“Look it’s really stupid, it’s nothing you need to worry about, I’ll be fine.” You stress, leaning forward to get your controller but Yeosang beats you to it, snatching up both controllers and holding them away from you and giving you a warning look.
“Okay fine, I guess I’m just a little jealous about how exciting your sex life is.” You pout as he gives you a small giggle.
“Told you it was stupid.” 
“No, it’s not stupid, why are you so jealous anyway it’s not like it’s a big deal?” He says, his chuckles fading away but his smile still present on his face.
“I’m just so envious that you can sleep with any girl you want and it’s as easy as blinking for you and then there’s me, still a virgin and I can’t even get a guy to look at me let alone fucking sleep with me.” His smile drops and his face forms a more shocked expression. 
“What?” You ask, hissing slightly feeling a little annoyed.
“I didn’t know you were still a virgin.” He responds, eyes still wide with shock as you groan at him.
“Well it’s not exactly something I advertise and you being shocked doesn’t really help.” You whine hiding your face in your hands.
“I’m sorry, I just thought you’d lost it ages ago, to that guy....what’s his name?”
“Felix? Yeah, that didn’t last long, I didn’t even kiss him.” Yeosang shuffles closer to you slightly, his full attention on you now.
“You don’t have to answer this but how far have you gone with a guy?” You’re cheeks heat up from the question, if anyone else had asked you, you’d have flat out refused to say, but this was Yeosang, the one you trusted with your life.
“I’ve only ever kissed someone.”
“Is there something stopping you from sleeping with anyone or are you just not ready yet?” His tone is soft, he doesn’t mean to poke his nose into your personal business but he can see it’s bothering you so he wanted to help in anyway he could.
“I just haven’t trusted anyone enough. Having sex makes you vulnerable to the other person and while I’ve been attracted to some guys I haven’t had that full trust with them to become that level of vulnerable with them. I’m just annoyed at myself at this point, I just want to know what all the hype is about and why everyone praises sex so much.” You sigh. Getting it out in the open was like a weight was being lifted off your shoulders, but that still didn’t change the fact you were still frustrated. 
“Is there someone you can think of you trust in that way?” Yeosang asks, curiosity getting the better of him. You stay quiet, you have a name in mind but you couldn’t find it in you to say. 
“Do you trust me?” His tone perked up, almost like he was joking.
“Yeo, you know I trust you with my life, you don’t need to ask that.”
“Well if you trust me that much then maybe you’d let me help you out?” His question was a serious one but his face and tone donning an air of playfulness so not to overwhelm you or make you uncomfortable. Your eyes widened as you brought your head up to look at him, you couldn’t tell if he was being serious or if he was playing so you keep quiet.
“You said you trust me right?” You nod in reply. “So in all seriousness I’m offering to help you out, I promise you I won’t judge, laugh, make jokes, none of that and if you agree we’ll only go as far as you’re comfortable with, you tell me to stop and I’ll stop instantly.” 
“Yeo...I can’t ask you to do that.” You say hesitantly.
“You’re not asking me anything y/n, I’m offering. If it’s not what you want then just tell me no and we’ll leave it here and not talk about it again.” His tone was more serious and hands were on yours, his warmth comforting you as you thought about it.
You had to admit to yourself the thought had crossed your mind on many occasions. Yeosang was the type of guy you thought only existed in books, but here he was sat in front of you, your best friend, offering to be your first. There was a war going on in your head as you thought over the options. Option one was you let him be your first and then run the risk of potentially fucking up your friendship, option two was you tell him no and you stay a frustrated virgin.
“Okay.” You say with a shaky breath and so quietly he didn’t know if he heard you correctly.
“Hmm?” 
“Okay. I trust you and I know you’ll look after me.” You couldn’t hide your nervousness and Yeosang could see that so it was only right he took things extra slow with you. 
“Is now okay with you or do you want to pick a day, give yourself time to mentally prepare, I don’t want you to feel rushed is all.”
“No it’s okay, now is good, I’m just...nervous.” He gave you a small smile before inching himself closer to you until his knees were against yours, his hands squeezing yours a little tighter.
“It’s okay, I’ll go slow...can I kiss you first?” Your breath hitched in your throat, this was really happening, what was meant to be a normal game day with you best friend has now turned into this. You give a small nod, not daring to look him in the eye out of seer embarrassment. He gives a low sigh and uses a finger to turn your head to face him.
“I need you to tell me, I won’t do anything until you tell me with words that it’s okay.” 
“You can kiss me.” You say shyly. He gave you a warm smile as he held your face in his hand slowly bringing you closer to him. He kissed you softly, his lips barely grazing yours and you couldn’t fight the little smile that spread across your face.
“Yeo.” You say pulling back with a giggle. “I’ve kissed before and I’m not made of glass.” He gave you a small wide eyed nod before pulling you back in kissing you properly this time. His lips moulded and moved perfectly with yours, guiding you to match his rhythm. You don’t know why but kissing Yeosang felt right, it was comfortable and you started to wonder why you hadn’t done this a lot sooner.
You felt him deepen the kiss, his pace picking up and his tongue lightly grazing your bottom lip, the small gasp you let out was enough for him to slip his tongue inside, his hand moving to the back of your head to hold you closer. He felt himself get carried away but there seemed to be no objection from you so he carried on.
His hands gripped your waist and guided you further up the bed to lay you down comfortably, only pulling away from the kiss for a brief moment to ask of you were okay. With a positive response and a small smile from you he stepped it up a notch. His hands wandered under your shirt slowly, his hands on your bare waist felt hot to the touch and heat slowly pooled at your core, but that didn't stop you feeling nervous.
"Can I take this off?" He asked against your lips. You gave him a shaky nod of your head but he gave you the look that screamed he wasn't happy with the answer.
"Yes." You whisper making him smile.
"That's better." He slowly peeled your shirt over your head but your arms flew up to cover your chest. This was the barest you'd been around Yeosang and you didn't know how you felt about it.
"Hey, it's okay, would this help?" He sits up slightly and removes his own shirt, throwing it off the bed to join yours on the floor.
"We're even now." He smiles and it did indeed make you feel more comfortable. He kissed you again to take your mind off of things, meanwhile he moved himself to slot between your legs and you gasp lightly at the feeling of his erection brushing against your clothed core. It was impossible to hide the smirk that grew on his face at your reaction, his hands slipping underneath you to grab your ass and pull you against him even more.
"Can I take these off too?" He asks again, pulling lightly at the waistband of your sweatpants. You grant him permission and his lips are away from you completely, sitting back in his heels as he once again slowly peels your clothing from you, his eyes never leaving yours like he was waiting for you to stop him. With your sweatpants gone he makes quick work of his own to make it even again and you smile, happy he was doing that to keep you comfortable.
"So soaked already." He coos but before he could kiss you again your hands were over your face, hiding how you were blushing so hard with embarrassment.
"Yeoo!"
"Hey," He starts, lightly pulling your hands away from your face. "It's nothing to be embarrassed about, it's normal and it tells me I'm doing something right, okay?" 
He trails kisses down your neck and collar only moving more and more down, his eyes flick up to you every now and again just to be sure. Stopping at the band of your panties he asks again if it was okay. Now the nerves were setting in and you couldn’t form a response straight away.
“I can move them to the side for now if it makes you feel better, they don’t need to come off yet if you don’t want them to.” You agree to that, the thought of at least having something on your lower half for now making the anxiety more bearable. 
“Do you want my mouth or fingers baby?” The question made your eyes shoot open wide, you weren’t expecting him to ask what you wanted, you thought he’d take the lead and do what he’s used to, but no, he wanted your input and these were questions you didn’t really have an answer for.
“What?” 
“Do you want me to use my mouth or my fingers?” He asked again, hovering himself over you so he could make proper eye contact. His hands stroked the inside of your thighs as he waited for your answer, the sensation making goose bumps cover your skin.
“Umm...Fingers.” You finally say and he lowers himself on top of you with a smile.
“Fingers it is.” His fingers ghost their way along your slit, collecting your wetness on his fingertips making a shaky breath pass your lips. His lips make themselves busy, peppering light kisses along your cheeks and nose, slightly distracting you from the way the pressure of his figures increased when they find your clit. 
Your body reacted just they way he wanted it to when he circled his fingers around your bud, your hips moving to meet his movements, breathy whines leaving your mouth and your eyes fluttered closed from pleasure. He could feel himself growing harder and harder from every small noise you made, but he had to wait for now, right now this was all about you.
““Are you okay?” He whispered against your cheek.
“Feels nice.” Was all you could get yourself to say, your breath hitching every time he brushed over a certain spot. Yeosang teased a finger at your entrance, glancing at you trying to read your responses to his touch, with no warning signs from you he proceeded to slip a finger inside. You gasp at the intrusion and Yeosang moves to kiss you again, kissing you though every movement. 
In no time he had you moaning into his mouth and slipped another finger into you, scissoring you open making sure you were properly prepped for later. His fingers curl up into your sweet spot and he smiles as he feels your walls flutter around him.
“Right here?” He asks slightly teasingly and you nod, the sensation being too much for you to form even a word of response. His hands speed up making sure to repeatedly hit the spot that had you moaning louder and louder against his lips. 
A knot started to form in your stomach, an unfamiliar feeling to you but you welcomed it anyway. Your breathing got heavier and your walls were clenching around Yeosang’s fingers more and more as he drove you closer to your high. 
“That’s it.” He encourages. “Just let it go baby, just let it go.” With a few more thrusts of his fingers he had your legs shaking as your orgasm hit you, pulling you in for a deep kiss, kissing you through the whole thing as he slows down his ministrations making sure to help you ride it out.
Coming back to your senses you’re met with Yeosang’s bright smile, his eyes taking in your fucked out state, smiling through the discomfort his erection was now giving him from being confined for so long. 
“How was that? Are you okay?” You couldn’t find the words to tell him how you felt but your face said it all to him, you were on cloud 9 right now and your anxiety had seemed to slip away. 
“Do you want to keep going? We can stop if you want to.” HIs hands rubbed at your hips lightly as he waited for your answer.
“Keep going.” You breathe out finally finding your words again. 
“Can I take these off you now?” His fingers play with the waistband of your now soaked panties and you grant him permission. He’s not so slow in removing the last items of clothing, your panties and his boxers flying into the pile on the floor in seconds. He leaves you for a second longer to fish out a condom from his bedside table before dropping it on the bed next to you and settling himself between your legs again.
“Are you sure about this?”
“More than ever, I trust you.” His heart swelled at that, he knew how much trust you were putting in him and it meant the world to him and he was over the moon you chose to do this with him and not some random asshole from a bar. He gives you a small nod and a peck before pulling away to put the condom on and line himself with you.
“Ready?”
“I’m ready.” Yeosang slowly pushes into you, the stretch singing slightly making you squeeze your eyes shut. He could see the discomfort on your face and peppered you with kisses again. 
“You’re doing great, I’m sorry it’s uncomfortable, it’ll be over soon.” He kept talking you through it, making your mind concentrate on something else as he slowly bottomed out.
Once he was fully sheathed he stopped all movements to give you time to adjust, despite the desperate urge to keep thrusting, the tightness of you around his cock making him go insane. 
“Just tell me when you’re ready.” Yeosang says biting back a groan secretly hoping you won’t take too long. To his relief it doesn’t take you long before you’re asking him to move again, your own impatience taking over.
His thrusts start off slow, helping you to ease through the discomfort until it became pleasurable for you. Once your moans picked up again and you seemed to be enjoying yourself Yeosang’s pace picked up also, gradually getting faster and faster with every thrust he gave you. Your walls so tight around him like a vice had his head spiraling as he let the overwhelming pleasure take over everything, it wasn’t until he heard a small cry from you did he snap back to reality. His eyes focusing in on you again to see discomfort on your face again and then it hit him. 
“Ah shit, I’m sorry.” He groans lightly slowing down his thrusts. “I got a little carried away there, am I hurting you?” 
“No...I’m okay.” You pant, your hands gripping his toned biceps grounding yourself.
Wrapping your legs around his waist and lifting your hips slightly Yeosang was able to thrust into you deeper, hitting your sweet spot again making you cry out.
“I’m sorry I...”
“No...Keep going...please.” You beg, the knot forming in your stomach again ready to snap at any moment. Your fingers dug into his arms leaving small crescents from your nails as you were edged closer and closer to another orgasm. Your walls were fluttering around him uncontrollably and it had his high spurring closer and closer with you. 
“You’re doing so well for me, so pretty, you look and sound so pretty.” His low voice rang through your ears. Moments later Yeosang had you cumming around his cock, mouth open in silent moans and your hands gripping him even harder as your legs trembled around him before falling to the bed limp. Your orgasm caused his to hit at the same time, his muscles tensing and a low moan falling from his lips as he fucked you both through the remainder of your highs.  
You let out a small whine when Yeosang pulled out from you, feeling a little sore and he floods you with apologies again. After disposing of the filled condom, Yeosang flops next to you on the bed, the room silent except from the heavy panting coming from you both.
“I can see what the hype is about now.” You chuckle still slightly out of breath making Yeosang laugh along with you. 
Leaning across you to grab his phone, you can't help but look at the blinding screen of him deleting the dating apps from his phone.
"Been meaning to do that for a while." He mumbles to himself, smiling at you as he sets his phone back down.
"How come?" You flutter your eyes at him, leaning on your elbows as you look down at his smiling face.
A moment of pause appears, Yeosang's too busy looking at your face, taking in every little detail he could possibly see.
"I've got everything I need here" You eyes widen at his sudden...dare you say it...confession?
“What do you mean?” He looks at you with another sweet smile, wrapping an arm around your waist pulling you flush against him. 
“You’re all I need...That’s if you feel the same too.” You could have sworn your heart swelled to twice it’s size. You press a kiss to his lips, confirming you felt the same. You were both a mess of limbs, sheets and sweat, but you wouldn’t have had it any other way, you were with the one you trusted, the one who took your virginity, your one.

to love you
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
when you ask him to be your fake fling he’s not prepared for the way it will make his unaddressed feelings for you grow
⇀ pairing wooyoung x gn!reader (references to yunho x gn!reader)
⇀ genre fluff, angst, fake dating au, unspecified nonidol au, f2l, one sided pining
⇀ style one shot
⇀ word count 10.4k
⇀ warnings jealousy, talks of hooking up, talks of vomit, crying, yelling at reader, yelling at wooyoung, just like a lot of general yelling, something that could be interpreted as a panic attack (no specific descriptions), allusions to violence (in a non-serious sense), cursing, food, alcohol consumption (assumed all characters are of age), parties, multiple kisses, pet names (love, babe), skinship (head on a shoulder, holding hands, holding faces), let me know if i missed anything
Tumblr media
you and wooyoung certainly weren’t best friends but that’s not to say you two were enemies either. you’d met each other through a friend of a friend just over a year ago and even though you both felt an instant connection, it was nothing that had either of you suddenly intertwining your lives. wooyoung would consider you a casual friend and if he asked he’s about 89% sure you would say the same, 1% of the other 11 was reserved for what his best friend yeosang liked to call his “simp brain” that wanted to imagine you’d call him something along the lines of a crush, but disregarding the tiny baby so minor and minuscule romantic interest wooyoung had in you, you both were casual friends, “i’m already in the neighborhood, do you want to grab coffee” friends, “i was supposed to have a date but they bailed and i’m already dressed up, do you want to get drinks” friends. you both were certainly not “can you be my fake boyfriend?” friends.
“i’m sorry, what?” wooyoung is lucky he swallowed the last sip of his coffee or it would likely be all over his open laptop.
“you know that guy yunho?” you supply, quite unhelpfully in wooyoung’s opinion.
and yeah of course he knows yunho, he’s yeosang’s roommate, and the guy you haven’t been able to shut up about for the past month. “what does he have to do with anything?” he asks, trying to keep any of the jealousy he felt bubbling in his stomach at the mention of yunho’s name from showing on his face.
you roll your eyes like the answer is obvious as you reply, “well i was talking with mingi the other day,” mingi being the friend you had met wooyoung through in the first place, “and he said i should try making yunho jealous, because he’s pretty sure yunho is actually interested in me but just, like, needs that push.”
wooyoung nods slowly as he continues to listen to you rant, trying to understand where in your mind you think taking mingi’s advice, especially when it came to your love life, would be a good idea. wooyoung loved mingi but the man hadn’t had a date in more than six months and he’s not even sure when the last time his roommate had any romantic interest in anyone was.
“-and so i figured the best way to make someone jealous is basically seem interested in someone else,” you conclude as the man sat across from you tunes back in, trying to look like he’d been listening the whole time instead of wondering how he’d found himself in this situation. he was definitely going to have to talk to mingi once he got back home.
“and you thought i was the best choice for that?” wooyoung raises a brow as you sip your drink.
you nod quickly as you swallow. “well i’m pretty sure he knows hongjoong and seonghwa are dating, jongho is very clearly not my type, i’m not close enough with san, and i doubt he would believe yeo and i were a thing considering they live together,” you explain, listing off all the men in your close circle of friends, except for him, yunho, and mingi, and for a second he considers trying to twist mingi’s intentions by suggesting that maybe the tall blonde is the one who likes you and is looking for an excuse to get close to you but he can still recall the look of sadness on the gentle giant’s face the last time wooyoung threw him under the bus. the look of determination on your face makes it seem like you’d been thinking about this for more than a day, hell maybe even more than a week, but wooyoung can’t tell if your resolve should be alarming in any way because he’s much too worried about the prospect of what pretending to be in a relationship with you might do to his heart.
in a last ditch effort he asks, “isn’t this what, like, tinder is for?” and the way you sigh cues him in to know that you’ve definitely considered that avenue already.
“i don’t want to lead on some poor guy for my own gain like that.”
of course you don’t, you’re too nice, and if you knew that wooyoung would agree in a heartbeat, if it weren’t for his microscopic eensy-weensy romantic interest in you, he’s sure you wouldn’t be asking him for the exact same reason, but wooyoung has been set to keep his feelings to himself since he realized they existed at all and so he can only blame himself for the current situation. well maybe he can blame mingi too but, again, that’s a conversation for later.
wooyoung sighs. “i need to know your plan before i’ll agree to anything,” he says but he knows he’ll end up saying yes no matter what when he sees the way your face immediately lights up at the prospect of your plan working successfully.
“okay,” you place your hands against the table excitedly, causing both of your drinks to wobble slightly, “i was thinking it could be more of a casual thing instead of a full blown relationship so that it would be more believable when we break it off.” you explain and wooyoung can feel that he’s not going to get any work done today, closing his laptop in defeat as he rests his chin on top of his hand, his elbow now placed on the table.
after you’d explained the details of your idea, and your fake situationship, you and wooyoung both left the cafe with a plan for the next couple weeks, leading up to a big party yunho and yeosang were hosting in which you’d explain to yunho that your thing with wooyoung was over and you’d get together and it would all work out.
he had to give it to you, wooyoung had doubted how much rational thought you’d actually put into your idea when you first asked but after hearing you out he was almost convinced himself that it might work. secretly wooyoung was hoping for the romcom ending in which you would realize he was the one that was interested in you, but that was just a itty-bitty thought in the back of his mind, totally not a thought swirling around his head and making his heart thump his entire journey home after you’d parted ways.
“hey, how was your day?” mingi is quick to greet his roommate with a large smile as wooyoung takes off his shoes in the entryway.
“hm yeah it was fine,” wooyoung starts with sarcasm dripping from his voice, “except for the part where you convinced my friend to ask me for a fake relationship!” his words had progressively gotten louder as he approached the taller man, now looking like a kicked puppy and cowering on the couch.
“what’s going on?” seonghwa, who had been trying to pay attention to the television is now alerted to the conflict between his friends when mingi almost sat right on him.
“mingi convinced (y/n) that they just need to make yunho jealous in order to get him to make a move,” wooyoung plops down next to seonghwa, arms crossed in front of his chest and pout set on his face.
“and that’s your problem because,” seonghwa trials off, gesturing for wooyoung to supply the rest of the sentence before placing a comforting hand on mingi’s arm.
“because,” wooyoung sighs, taking a deep breath before he finishes his sentence, “they asked me to be their fake situationship.”
mingi pops up off the couch suddenly at wooyoung’s statement, looking just as surprised as wooyoung is sure he was in the cafe with you less than an hour earlier.
“i did NOT suggest they fake date one of our friends,” mingi explains, scrambling through the living room in search of, well, wooyoung’s not sure. “my suggestion was to just get a little comfy with someone at a party or something,” he explains, pulling the pillow off from where he’d been sat and sighing in relief as he takes his phone into his hands, fingers flying across the screen in a panic.
“i don’t see the issue,” seonghwa interjects, “it’s not like you’re actually dating and it’s not even like you’re fake dating if you’re not calling it official,” the oldest of the group shrugs, opening one of the boxes of pizza on the coffee table and pulling out a slice for himself. “plus it’s not like you’re interested in them or anything.”
mingi freezes at this, his behavior a complete 180 from only a few seconds ago as his gaze slowly drifts up from his phone to wooyoung who has stiffened next to seonghwa. the two youngest both let out audibly pained chuckles and seonghwa drops his plate dramatically back down onto the table.
“don’t tell me.”
wooyoung clears his throat loudly. “so i may have, like, the tiniest most insignificant crush on them,” he practically whispers, face feeling slightly warmer at the prospect of the situation he’s in, and certainly not his feelings for you.
seonghwa narrows his eyes at the youngest, a question on the tip of his tongue before mingi decides to supply the answer anyway.
“you’ve been in love with them for months, we all know.”
“i am not in love with them,” wooyoung shouts back, anger reignited as he focused back on the true root of the issue, mingi and his bright ideas. “yes i might think they’re attractive, and yes i would like to date them for real, and maybe, just maybe, i do get a little jealous when they talk about yunho, but that doesn’t mean i like them that much.”
wooyoung feels the energy fizzling out and his words get weaker as he observed the looks on his roommates’ faces. mingi seems almost smug, like he’s been proven right, while seonghwa wears an amused grin, eyebrows raised slightly in satisfaction.
“you’re sure about that?”
the next week, as he’s laying sprawled out on his best friend’s bed, yeosang busy putting away his freshly cleaned laundry, he sighs for what feels like the millionth time and the dark haired man at the closet has had enough.
“either say something or stop sighing,” yeosang grunts, placing the last hanging item in the closet. as he moves to sit at his desk, wooyoung flips onto his stomach quickly, causing the bed to creek and him to bounce slightly.
“i just don’t get it,” wooyoung says and yeosang resists the urge to groan. this is the same conversation the two had been having since wooyoung found out about your interest in yeosang’s roommate.
woo complains that he doesn’t understand why you think yunho is so great and then yeo has to bring his friend back to reality by reminding him that yunho is actually a pretty great guy and that woo is the one who could change his own fate, if he just had the balls to admit he was interested in you. but of course wooyoung always manages to weasel out of the truth, claiming that he doesn’t like you that much, or that you don’t like him, which yeo thinks is shit considering the amount of times you started ditching him for his own best friend but he’s not a snitch.
it’s yeosang’s turn to sigh. “i’m not doing this again,” he mutters. “yunho is not a bad guy, in fact he’s a great guy, all of his previous relationships ended amicably, he’s not unattractive according to the people that have asked me to give him their number, and as far as i know he and (y/n) actually have quite a bit in common.” yeosang turns to wooyoung quickly, finding the younger man with a small pout gracing his features.
as wooyoung opens his mouth to possibly argue against one of the points his friend had raised, both men hear the familiar sound of the front door opening and yunho’s usual greeting rings through the apartment. both boys suddenly feel like they’ve been caught, wooyoung’s eyes going wide for a moment as yeosang turns back to busy himself with the unfolded clothes on his desk.
“hey,” yunho says, poking his head through yeosang’s open door a few moments later. “they were out of those macarons you like at the cafe so i got you a maple cinnamon roll instead, y/n suggested it.”
at the mention of your name wooyoung perks up, trying not to seem too eager at the mere thought of you.
“sorry woo, i didn’t know you were over until after i’d ordered or i would have gotten you something,” yunho apologizes and wooyoung hates that he can tell it’s sincere.
wooyoung thinks it would be a lot easier to hate his best friend’s roommate if he was not actually such a nice guy. but he just can’t hate him, he might dislike him a bit for being such a great guy and being the one to hold your attention, but honestly feeling anything but amicable toward the man just makes him feel guilty. it’s not yunho’s fault you find him attractive and it’s certainly not yunho’s fault that wooyoung can’t just admit his feelings.
“you ran into y/n?” yeosang asks, honestly not trying too hard to hide the glance he throws wooyoung’s direction.
yunho nods as he moves to fully lean against yeosang’s doorframe. “they said they were stopping by the cafe before they were supposed to meet a friend.”
yeosang and wooyoung both nod in response, wooyoung’s a little more engaged while yeosang keeps looking between his two best friends.
“they actually asked if you were over,” yunho continues, gesturing to wooyoung with a quick tick of his chin.
the younger man’s expression quickly shifts to confusion before he’s remembering your idea he’d been telling yeosang about only half an hour before. he tries to tone down the shock of hearing you ask about him as he asks, “really?”
“yeah,” yunho chuckles slightly. “they said you weren’t answering any of their texts and that only happens when you’re with yeosang.”
before yunho is even done with his explanation wooyoung is digging through the slightly askew comforter he’d unceremoniously dropped himself and his phone onto once he’d arrived an hour ago. he’s not sure if you just made up the statement to prove to yunho that you two were close, as you truly didn’t text each other much outside of making plans, but no matter if you were just trying to provoke yunho you had spoken the truth. just about every time you texted wooyoung he would drop everything to respond. mingi would call it being “down bad”, and maybe wooyoung was learning to accept that fact about himself.
as wooyoung scrolled through the texts you’d sent him, a little update about how you think the plan is working and a picture of a cute dog that you said looked a little like him, which totally didn’t make him blush, he hears yunho clear his throat.
“are you two,” yunho pauses as wooyoung glances up at him, finding the conversation to feel a bit stiff and uncomfortable. “are you two like a thing?” yunho finally asks, finding the setup of yeosang’s room to be more interesting as his friend watches a blush creep onto the tips of his ears.
it’s wooyoung’s turn to find the decor around him interesting as he replies, trying to remember everything you’d talked about, “i wouldn’t call it a thing.” wooyoung shrugs trying to seem cool as he feels his heart beat creeping up into his throat.
he hadn’t anticipated it being this hard. the man hadn’t even lied about anything yet and he could still feel the guilt settling into the back of his throat, flavoring his words with a bitterness that held a strange mix of satisfaction, for getting to even pretend to know you in a more intimate way than his current competition, and regret, for agreeing to be apart of a plan that might cause one of his friends any distress.
“they’ve just been talking about you a lot,” yunho adds and if wooyoung had a little less self control he’d probably have fallen right off yeosang’s bed. he’s too focused on the thought of you purposely mentioning him in conversation to others to think about how yunho would know, the older man probably having seen you more times than wooyoung had in the past week.
“i think they’re in what you might call a situationship,” yeosang supplies when wooyoung doesn’t respond, shrugging as if he has no interest in the information he’d just shared.
wooyoung bites his tongue as he takes a deep breath, mentally preparing to tell the biggest lie he’s probably told in his whole life, just as you’d agreed to. “you remember that party their friend, whatever-her-name-was, had a few weeks ago?”
yunho nods gently, now able to look at wooyoung again after having determined that the conversation maybe wasn’t that uncomfortable.
“well we kinda,” wooyoung pauses, knowing it’s his last chance to back out before everything changes, and so he pushes forward with a sigh, “we hooked up that night and we’ve gotten together a few times since then.”
for wooyoung, it felt weird to say, the statement now just sitting in the air as he sees yunho trying to digest the information. he thought it might make him feel some way but instead he just feels empty, knowing that it’s entirely untrue. sure you’d left that party together, a fact that you had remembered and wanted to use in order to make your little fib realistic, but you’d both simply had enough of partying that night and gone for food at the convenience store on the corner before he walked you home. as far as wooyoung was aware, and he was pretty sure you didn’t go anywhere after he left your doorstep, you’d both gone to bed alone that night. and yet wooyoung didn’t feel like he could let himself daydream even the thought of you both actually doing anything then, the idea much too dangerous for the way he’d slowly started accepting what all his friends had been telling him about his affections recently. and even though he might be able to admit that he does have a crush on you, he certainly wasn’t expecting to hear the question falling from yunho’s lips.
“do you love them?”
wooyoung could feel his stomach jump right into his throat, his heart plummeting at the same time and causing nausea to replace the guilt he’d been wadding in just moments earlier.
“uh i think love is maybe a strong term,” he tries to chuckle lightly but he can hear the awkwardness permeating the laugh. “but i do like them.”
it’s the first time he’s admitted it without a caveat, and just like with the lie before, he feels the emptiness returning except instead of sitting deep into his stomach it fills his entire chest cavity, only stirring the nausea and making him feel like he’d much rather sink into the covers of his best friend’s bed than continue this conversation. he’s just not sure how much more he can say before he might actually vomit.
yunho nods slowly, a thoughtful look on his face, before he says, “i think you two would be good together.”
wooyoung is much too focused on staying grounded and not revealing the sickness that he feels to analyze whether yunho is telling the truth, a slight burn building in his chest of what he can only assume is bile, and at this point he’s not sure he wants to know what yunho thinks anymore. why did he agree to this?
“well, that roll is on the counter whenever you want it yeo,” yunho continues, oblivious to the turmoil brewing in wooyoung’s mind and body. “see you later woo.”
with that the man is gone, disappearing into his bedroom down the hall.
yeosang turns to his best friend quickly, ready to supposedly recap the conversation but stops in his tracks when he sees the look of pain on wooyoung’s face.
“how am i gonna make it through this?”
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
the next week or so is filled with moments similar to this, where he has to look at yunho and lie straight to his face, straight to his own heart. and although yeosang assured that it would have to get easier at some point, wooyoung can feel he’s reaching his own breaking point.
throughout the process, as you execute your plan, you actually try to spend more time with wooyoung, starting with simple little outings that weren’t too different from things you might do usually. at some point these outings morphed into full fledged dates, and every time wooyoung felt himself sinking into the idea that he might be able to just enjoy this for what it was, you were quick to mention the plan and pop the bubble that wooyoung had found solace in. although he feels something unfamiliar burning lightly in his chest he can’t even fathom to be mad at you, too unbelievably happy in those moments where he could forget that you were faking it all.
“i’m not sure this is good for you anymore,” seonghwa had said one day after wooyoung had come home from a day out with you, plopping himself down onto the couch with an exhausted heart from the emotional roller coaster you were unknowingly taking him on.
wooyoung only let out a grunt, the sound muffled by the cushion his face was squished against, and seonghwa sighed in response.
“you’re tearing yourself apart for them,” seonghwa tried to reason, his quest of stopping this little escapade you’d set yourself on as futile as always.
wooyoung was sure he was delirious at this point, fatigue settled deep into his body from the way he felt he was chasing every moment with you, and so the next words that slipped off his tongue were completely unvetted by his mind and entirely from the heart.
“how else would i be able to love them?”
if seonghwa is surprised by the statement he doesn’t show it, his face neutral as wooyoung turns to look at him, the older man now crouched next to where wooyoung lies. he’s not sure what reaction he expected, and he knows that he asked an unanswerable question, but somehow wooyoung’s not surprised when seonghwa reaches out to run a gentle hand up and down the younger’s back.
the next words wooyoung speaks come out watery as he feels tears pricking at the back of his eyes and that unfamiliar burn returns to his chest, “they’ll always love someone else.”
as much as seonghwa wants to argue, to point out that you shouldn’t think in forevers and absolutes, right now he knows that his friend just needs comfort. so he moves to pull wooyoung so that he’s sitting, seonghwa moving into the space he’s created on the couch and taking his younger friend into his arms, letting him sob gently against his shoulder.
as if he couldn’t feel bad enough about this entire situation, wooyoung wakes the next morning to a text from you. normally he might feel a bit giddy to hear from you but the message is nothing like any of the ones you’d recently started sending, casual conversations about your days and cute pictures of things that reminded you of him. it was cold, with a finite energy and wooyoung could feel it like a punch to the chest.
y/n: let’s break it off
wooyoung can barely perceive himself moving to message you back, feeling like he’s gone into autopilot. he’s tried to be prepared for this but with the way he’s allowed himself to feel with you for the past few weeks it’s almost as devastating as knowing that he’s been making himself comfortable inside of a lie. as he turns over to try to return to sleep he feels that same something unfamiliar burn in his chest.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
“you should go anyway,” yeosang says, looking down at wooyoung from his place on the couch.
wooyoung has taken to wallowing in self pity on the floor of his living room, mingi having forcefully pulled him out of the pitiful nest he had created of his bed a few hours ago upon seonghwa’s request.
“and see yunho all over them, no thank you,” wooyoung pouts.
the two of them had been talking about the party at yeosang’s, and by extension yunho’s, place since yeosang had arrived just over an hour ago. the party was supposed to be the final phase of the plan, when you would confront yunho, with the help of the alcohol that would surely be in your system, and wooyoung was obviously less than enthusiastic to see you complete the last stage of the plan. his best friend had been arguing that he could reasonably avoid you the entire night and be able to have fun anyway, but wooyoung wasn’t in the mood to have fun in the first place.
“if you just stay by the beer pong table the whole night i’m sure you’ll be able to avoid them,” mingi supplies helpfully, to which wooyoung whines in response.
“and have a perfect view of the rest of the room, where everyone else will be having the time of their lives, yeah great, very cool,” wooyoung spits sarcastically, limbs flailing about around him as he tries to push away the mental images of all of his friends getting to have a great night while he tries to keep from silently crying into his cup in a corner.
“so you’re just never going to go to another party?” seonghwa asks, stepping over his roommate as he goes about tidying the living room, setting things that had migrated amongst the room back where they belong.
wooyoung stops at this, turning over quickly so he can toss seonghwa, who spares no glance to him, a questioning look. “what do you mean?”
seonghwa just shrugs, dusting an empty shelf before he reorganizes the knick-knacks that would sit on it. “well, if you’re avoiding this party because you don’t want to see them together, then you’re going to have to avoid every party where you know they’ll be, which will likely be every party you’re invited to,” seonghwa explains, enunciating slowly as though wooyoung is only a child.
“and if you’re just avoiding anything they’ll be at together are you going to stop coming to group hangouts, or anything either one of them is at in fear that the other person will show up,” seonghwa continues, oblivious to the way wooyoung seems to be melting into the floor as he realizes how crazy his logic from earlier sounds now that the eldest is breaking it down like this. “so are you just going to stop being friends with both of them?”
wooyoung lets out something akin to a growl as he flops once more onto his back, his legs kicking in the air as he knows that he’s been cornered. “i get it,” he whines, hands smacking gently against his face in defeat.
“if you just rip the bandaid off now it’ll be so much easier,” yeosang adds, “you won’t have built it up more than you have already.”
“i hate when you’re all right.”
so, with the caveat that he can hang onto one of his roommates the whole night for emotional support, wooyoung finally agrees to attend the party.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
“have you been avoiding me?”
wooyoung knew it was a bad idea to come to this cafe, the same one he had made that stupid agreement with you at, the one where you might be found more often than not, your favorite cafe. and if any of his friends were here with him they might just call him an absolute idiot, yeosang might even call it masochistic, to think that he could avoid you in the one spot you were sure to be.
“avoiding you?” wooyoung hears himself speak before he is even able to process what he should say, his nerves too frazzled by your proximity, standing closer than he thinks you ever have before. it certainly doesn’t help that with the warmer weather lately you’ve taken to start cycling your summer clothes into your wardrobe, your outfit today including one of your favorite tank tops, showing off the soft skin of your collarbone and shoulders. wooyoung has to use all of his self control to not reach out and brush his fingertips against you, tracing shapes into your skin and feeling you shudder beneath his gentle touches.
he’s snapped suddenly out of the trance he had been sinking into when you speak again, “you haven’t been answering any of my messages.”
at this wooyoung moves his gaze to your face and although he can see the teasing smile that graces your lips he can still spot a bit of disappointment swimming in your eyes.
“i’m sorry,” he replies, sounding much too genuine for the way you had seemed to be trying to hide your true disappointment in the playfulness of your usual cadence you adopted around him, and he feels the familiar pool of guilt start to fill the void that he’d been keeping in the pit of his stomach since you’d broken things off.
as you stand before him, forcing him into your personal space and looking at him expectantly, he thinks back to his decision to turn off notifications from your number, one that all of his friends had already torn him to shreds for. at the time he had reasoned that it was to protect himself from the repeated heartbreak he would suffer every time he might interact with you. unfortunately, in making this decision he hadn’t thought about what his seemingly sudden disappearance from your life might do to you, he hadn’t considered that he might be hurting you, and the guilt only grows.
you seem to be slightly taken back by his apology, likely not expecting him to reply in earnest, taking a moment to collect yourself before you state, “so you admit it, you were avoiding me,” although it comes out as more of a question, your head tilting gently as you seem to be inspecting the man before you, and wooyoung hates that he feels so exposed.
you aren’t even aware of the way you hold wooyoung’s heart in your hands but the longer you stand dissecting his expression the more he feels like your grip on it is too tight. he can’t tell whether you want him to answer honestly, or if you even care if he does, his mind is far too clouded by the scent of your shampoo along with the hurt he can see you trying to hide behind the confusion in your eyes, and he feels the familiar prickle of tears forming in his own.
he watches as you own features turn to concern, but before either of you can move to speak again, you’re both thrust out of the moment as someone behind you asks, “are you two going to move? you’re holding up the line.”
and suddenly wooyoung feels like the entire world can see him, pathetically crying over a person stood directly in front of him, and he needs to get out.
he’s not sure how he manages to make it out of the cafe with his vision as watery as it is, tears now fully rolling down his cheeks, but he assumes muscle memory simply kicked in as he finds himself briskly walking in the direction of his apartment.
“wooyoung!” he hears you call behind him and for a moment he considers stopping but then he feels that familiar burn in his chest, the same one he felt when you’d broken things off, and in a moment of clarity, as his feet carry him further from the agreement you’d both made, he realizes what it is, anger. although he’s never felt anger like this before, anger that roots itself into that guilt he’d been building for the entire time you’d pretended to be something. so it’s not an anger he can quickly pick apart and resolve, no, it’s an anger that feels like it feeds off of everything he’s been through for the past month. he’s angry at himself, for being so stubborn for so long, at his friends, for pushing for him to reanalyze his feelings, at the situation, for being so complicated, at yunho, for being the one you want, at the plan, for making everything worse, and most importantly at you.
his feet suddenly come to a halt, and you must have been closer behind than he thought because just a moment later he feels you running right into his back, not having expected him to actually stop.
“what do you want from me?” he spits, whipping around and causing you to jump in surprise.
“wooyoung,“ you begin softly, feeling his gaze sharp and strong, “what’s wrong?”
“you want to know what’s wrong?” he laughs, the sound void of any real humor. “you’re what’s wrong.”
you try not to react, knowing that he probably doesn’t mean what he’s saying, but he can see the way your hands, that had been hesitantly reaching toward him, suddenly drop to your sides.
“you and your goddamn plan,” he starts. “why couldn’t you have just fucking talked to yunho yourself instead of dragging me along for your own fun? you’re so goddamn selfish it doesn’t even cross your mind that other people might get hurt by the shit you think up. but it doesn’t matter to you does it? no one else’s feelings and emotions really matter as long as you can get what you want in the end. how long are you gonna string along yunho before you have to tell him you’re a liar and break his heart too? how many other guys are you going to hurt and then manipulate into feeling guilty for protecting themselves from you, huh?”
by the end of his rant he’s shouting, surely attracting attention from anyone else just trying to go about their lives that might happen to pass you both on the sidewalk, but wooyoung couldn’t care less, each word cooling the burn in his chest and laced with the anger that he can no longer stand to house inside of himself.
“wooyoung, please-“ you try to start, but he must miss the watery way you speak and how your own tears now threaten to join his on the sidewalk as he interrupts you.
“i wish i could just stop loving you,” and with his final peace spoken he turns and begins, once again, the trek home, an inexplicable exhaustion weighing down his steps.
he barely even registers that you don’t follow.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
“JUNG WOOYOUNG WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?”
when he had returned home to an empty apartment, he felt like it was the only good thing that had happened to him in the last month, but then, as he sat in silence, calming his nerves and slowing his racing heart, his actions from the last half hour began to sink into his conscious. he knew his friends would find out what he had done sooner or later, but he certainly didn’t expect to find four of them bursting through his front door in a fury only minutes after he’d arrived.
hongjoong, always the voice of reason, had been the one to shout and announce their presence, his boyfriend, and wooyoung’s roommate, in tow. both men were visibly upset, although reasonably so, and if mingi didn’t have a gentle hold on seonghwa’s wrist wooyoung is sure the eldest would have tackled him to the ground by now.
“i knew you were an idiot but man,” yeosang says, bringing up the rear.
“so,” wooyoung tries, looking anywhere but his friends, “how was lunch?”
hongjoong takes a breath, likely trying to calm himself as he replies, “great, we even ran into a friend,” sarcasm heavy on each syllable.
“oh really?” wooyoung asks just above a whisper.
“yeah,” hongjoong nods harshly with an angry smile, “we would’ve invited them to join us had they not been FUCKING SOBBING,” he ends shouting.
“ah,” wooyoung tries, wishing the couch might just swallow him whole. “so you ran into y/n i’m guessing.” wooyoung lets out an awkward cough, releasing a humorless chuckle as he finally glanced back up at his friends.
“i’m going to ask this again,” hongjoong starts once more, taking several large breaths with his eyes closed to presumably calm himself. “what is wrong with you?”
“what did you do?” mingi takes a turn to speak up, releasing his hold on seonghwa who moves to run a soothing hand along his boyfriend’s back.
wooyoung can’t find the energy to recount the details of your entire encounter, and he also doesn’t feel like being berated for every little misstep he’d taken throughout your interaction, so he resolves to try summarizing the last half hour for the four men that are giving him some of the most expectant looks he’s probably ever seen. “we-uh,” he starts, as eloquently as usual, “we ran into each other and i may have cried and then i may have gotten angry and then i may have, uhm, madethemcry.” his last three words come out as one as he tries to get them out as quickly as possible, hating the way they taste rolling off his tongue.
and now, as the four men that had been listening so closely are thrown into a flurry once more by his statement, he begins to digest his own statement. he made you cry, and he’s sure if the room wasn’t filled with the voices of four of his friends arguing, the crack he feels in his heart would echo against the walls around him.
“i also told them i loved them,” wooyoung says again, barely above a whisper and yeosang is quick to shush the other three.
“you what?”
“i told them i loved them,” he repeats before quickly clarifying, “well it was more like i told them i wished i didn’t.”
and that set them all off again, each of his friends shouting over each other, and wooyoung just sunk into himself, the image of your tear stained cheeks at the front and center of his mind.
after what wooyoung might consider a pretty reasonable 15 minutes of being reminded how he has fucked up in pretty much every way possible, mingi was the first to calm down, always the one to move through his emotions quickly, and yeosang was soon to follow. seonghwa was the next to cool off, half way through a shouted sentence remembering the moment just a week ago in which he’d comforted wooyoung on the same couch he stood in front of now. hongjoong didn’t get the chance to simmer down, seonghwa pushing him to go home before he could pop a blood vessel.
“what are you thinking about?” yeosang asks, sitting himself next to wooyoung on the couch.
“how stupid i am,” wooyoung sighs, staring up at the ceiling.
yeosang sighs, placing a tentative but comforting hand on wooyoung’s bicep. “you’re not stupid,” yeosang says, “you’re just in love.”
wooyoung lolls his head to the side, getting a good view of his friend to see if he was joking, but all he found was sincerity, and a little pity, in the gentle smile on yeosang’s face.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
saturday
y/n: let’s break it off
woo: sure
sunday
y/n: hey, i just told yunho
y/n: just figured you should know
tuesday
y/n: can we talk?
wednesday
y/n: everything okay?
today
y/n: i really need to tell you something
that night wooyoung opens your chat and feels even worse about everything that happened today, but before he can tumble into a cycle of self pity once again, he feels his phone vibrate in his hand.
y/n: are you still going to the party tomorrow?
wooyoung practically tosses his phone in the air with the way he jumps up in surprise, fingers flying across the keyboard to respond. he types out and deletes his message at least five times before he hits send, debating if he should take this moment to apologize in fear that he won’t ever get the chance again. in the end he decides to just answer your question, straight and simple, not wanting to fuck up anything else.
woo: yeah
and in the minute he waits for a response he feels like his nerves are on fire, mentally berating himself for his answer. he should have apologized, or said something else, anything else. you probably wanted him to do more, address what happened earlier in the day, but of course he couldn’t even do that right. so wooyoung starts that spiral again, sinking into the depths of his own mind, until he feels his phone vibrate.
y/n: cool
y/n: i’ll see you there
wooyoung can barely sleep that night, either replaying his mistakes from the day or rehearsing the apology he had to give you at the party.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
yeosang had managed to rope wooyoung into helping with the set up at his and yunho’s apartment for the party, claiming it would help him to get his mind off of things, but as wooyoung knocks on his best friends door, he can feel the anxiety creeping up as he tries to think of a plan for if yunho were to open the door instead of yeosang. wooyoung is so lost in his nerves he doesn’t realize that yeosang has answered until the older man speaks.
“why are you shaking?” yeosang asks, confusion clear on his face as he opens the door wider for the quaking man in question to enter.
“uh, yunho,” is all wooyoung says, as he inspects the state of the apartment.
streamers and other miscellaneous decorations are thrown about the entrance area and living room, the beer pong table already set up in the corner farthest away from the hall to yeosang and yunho’s bedrooms, giving it the best view of the open concept living room and kitchen, and wooyoung tosses around the idea of mingi’s suggestion. he would certainly be able to see when you arrive so he can catch you before you lose yourself in the party tonight.
“oh, he and mingi went to pick up the stuff for drinks,” yeosang shrugs, “i thought mingi would have told you.”
wooyoung just shakes his head before yeosang starts instructing him on what he needs to do, placing the younger in charge of setting up the kitchen while yeosang gets everything hung up in the entrance and living areas.
for the first half hour, wooyoung does have to admit that he is more focused on decorating and organizing the snacks, making sure to leave room for drinks, than the apology he has perfected that had been swirling through his mind all day. he busies himself with which color balloon should be where and whether he should put the salty and sweet together or mix them up a bit so one side doesn’t get more crowded than the other, of which he decides to mix them together, instead of how he should open the conversation he’s dreading. of course as he finally starts managing to sink himself into his task all the way he hears a throat clear behind him.
expecting it to be yeosang who has some little complaint about the way wooyoung hung the streamers or how he should at least put the cookies all together he just says, “i don’t want to hear it.”
instead of one of yeosang’s usual quips wooyoung is surprised to hear a much deeper voice, laced with confusion. “what?”
wooyoung is quick to whip around, ending up face to face with, a slightly amused but mostly puzzled looking, yunho who has a bottle of tequila in one hand and some sort of mixer in the other, a few bags scattered on the floor near his feet.
“sorry,” wooyoung is quick to move, gesturing to the empty space on the counter. “thought you were yeosang,” wooyoung explains, stepping as far out of yunho’s way as he can.
yunho just chuckles lightly, as he sets the two bottles down, turning to wooyoung, “i figured.”
to wooyoung’s surprise yunho doesn’t move to unpack any more of the bags, instead leaning up against the counter and crossing his arms over his chest.
“he went out to grab another cord for the speakers,” yunho explains, “we always manage to loose one.”
wooyoung just nods slowly, his gaze flickering between the decorations still left to be used and the bags that still need to be unpacked, and just as wooyoung is about to move back to do one of those tasks, yunho speaks up again.
“y/n told me,” he says and wooyoung freezes completely, feeling his heart plummet into his feet. he prepares himself for any of the rage that yunho might be about to throw his way, even trying to mentally steel himself for the way yunho will surely laugh at him for telling you that he loved you. how could his love compare to that which is reciprocated by someone you actually wanted.
“i still mean what i said,” yunho continues and wooyoung dares to glance at his friend. “i think you two would be good together.”
now it’s wooyoung’s turn to be puzzled. for a moment he wonders if yunho is sick at all because he certainly wouldn’t tell another guy, especially one that made his crush cry, that they would be good together but with the way yunho doesn’t react to wooyoung’s confusion wooyoung fears that maybe the sleep deprivation has finally caught up to him.
“i know that it was supposed to be all pretend but i don’t think you were lying when i asked you if you loved them,” yunho continues and wooyoung shakes his head like it will clear out his thoughts. “you’re a pretty open book.”
wooyoung decides he might as well bite the bullet and asks, “what did they tell you?”
“that it was fake,” yunho replies easily, “the situationship.”
wooyoung wishes that his answer cleared anything up but instead it only leaves him feeling more lost. does yunho like you? does he know about yesterday? do you still like yunho? wasn’t the end of the plan the party? that had to mean that you ended the plan early, did it not work out?
“i hope it works out for you,” yunho concludes, leaving wooyoung to stand mindlessly in the middle of the kitchen as the older man goes about setting up the drinks.
“thanks,” is all wooyoung can say in response and suddenly the party can’t start soon enough.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
when it’s half an hour past go time and you still haven’t arrived, he’s tempted to text you but he decides against it when he realizes he’s not sure what he would even say. mingi had been reassuring him that it was fine, turning to say so every time he would score in the game of beer pong he and a friend of a friend were playing, he thinks she introduced herself as yuri or yeji or something that started with a y but it’s hard for him to remember when his mind has been stuck on you for the last hour now.
“i told you they were pregaming at san’s so you know it’s gonna take them forever,” mingi says before downing the cup in his hand, the girl across the table high-fiving her friend excitedly. “plus i’m pretty sure they were going to wait for jongho to get off work and swing by his place to grab him.”
wooyoung just nods quickly, feeling more uncomfortable by the second. he had decided to forgo drinking until you arrived, wanting to be sober when he talked to you but the longer he waited the more he was regretting that decision, the soda he’d been nursing for the last half hour going flat as it swished around his cup.
before he can start to overthink it, he leans in next to mingi’s ear, not wanting to yell over the music. “i’m gonna grab a drink,” he says, not waiting for his friend’s response before he’s pushing through the crowd of people dancing, making his way to the kitchen.
“they here yet?” yeosang asks as soon as he spots wooyoung entering the kitchen, simultaneously handing an obviously tipsy seonghwa another drink.
“no,” wooyoung responds quickly, tossing the liquid in his cup into the sink before reaching for one of the bottles of soju on the counter.
seonghwa lets out a high pitched giggle, not hiding that it’s at wooyoung’s expense as the younger whips his head to stare daggers at his senior. “don’t you have a hongjoong to be hanging off of?” wooyoung spits and the phrase receives the reaction he’d intended, seonghwa quick to let out a squeaky “joongie!” before making his way back into the clump of bodies wooyoung had just emerged from.
as he watches his oldest friend disappear into the crowd, yeosang following suit, wooyoung catches mingi’s gaze, eyes wide as he ticks his chin in the direction of the front door, and he knows what it means immediately.
you’re here.
he can see the top of your head slowly moving into the center of the crowd, presumably being pulled by none other than choi san, who wooyoung can see is already flushed when the crowd moves and he can catch glimpses of you both dancing together, a bright smile displayed on your face as you laugh at san. he wants to go to you but he feels like his feet are suddenly too heavy, unable to do anything but watch from a distance.
“just the man i was looking for,” jongho says, clapping wooyoung on the back harshly, and successfully pulling him out of the trance you’d put him in.
“why?” wooyoung whines before he turns to jongho, seeing the smile that only his younger friend could lace with a scary sort of anger and wooyoung’s blood runs cold.
“y/n was just telling me about the interesting conversation you two had yesterday,” jongho says, his hand moving from wooyoung’s back up to his shoulder and squeezing harshly. wooyoung resists the urge to yell and instead tries to push the younger’s hand away, ducking under his arm to try and escape.
“i’m going to apologize,” wooyoung is quick to explain, now facing jongho head on in hopes to stop any more of his friend’s attacks.
jongho just drops his smile, muttering a quick, “i hope so,” before he moves past wooyoung and toward the drinks.
once wooyoung is sure he’s no longer in danger of being on the wrong side of jongho’s anger he quickly turns back to the crowd, scanning quickly for you or san. he spots san easy enough, having moved his dancing from the floor up onto the couch that had been pushed up against one of the walls. unfortunately you’re no longer with him and so wooyoung continues his search once more, although it’s starting to prove difficult as he realizes that more people must have arrived during his quick exchange with jongho, the living room packed almost wall to wall.
“who are we looking for?”
wooyoung almost jumps three feet in the air as your voice registers so clearly, your mouth centimeters away from his ear so that you can speak without straining over the music. he places a hand firmly against his chest as he tries to calm his racing heart but when he turns to you he knows the attempt is futile.
“can we talk?” wooyoung eventually manages out between staggered breaths, yelling over the music instead of opting to get closer to you, fearing that he might overstep some sort of boundary if he were to be inside of your personal space.
you only nod in response before you grab his wrist, and wooyoung barely registers where you’re pulling him off to as he focuses on the way your fingertips press into his skin. only once you’ve closed the door behind you two, successfully muffling the music and voices enough to converse without shouting, do you release his arm and he recognizes the room as his best friend’s.
you make no effort to move away from wooyoung once you’ve succeeded in locking the door behind him, ignoring the many extra feet of space that you could place between you both, and wooyoung isn’t sure if he’s overthinking but he would like to assume it’s a good sign.
“i was looking for you,” wooyoung answers your question from earlier, feeling like his mouth is much too dry before he remembers he’s been holding a cup in his hand since you’d arrived and takes the smallest swig of the liquid inside. he notices you aren’t holding a drink and debates about offering a sip of his own to you before ultimately deciding to just set it down on yeosang’s desk, leaning awkwardly to the side in order to reach.
“why?” you ask and wooyoung loses his balance for a moment, falling into you slowly before his feet find better support. if he hadn’t felt hot enough with embarrassment just from starting to fall in front of you, he’s now overheating when he realizes you’d placed a hand on his chest to keep him from completely falling onto you, your palm feeling as though it might burn a hole through his shirt.
he clears his throat nervously as you retract your hand and he misses the searing heat of your skin almost immediately, itching to just grab your wrist and place your hand back. but he doesn’t, because he respects you too much. he loves you too much.
“to apologize,” he finally admits, feeling the heat you’d gifted him moving up from his chest to his cheeks. “i-“ he tries to breath, to remember the apology he’d been practicing in his mind, but it’s so much harder when you’re actually in front of him. your eyes, just as they had in the cafe before his outburst, make him feel exposed, sensitive. “i’m sorry for getting mad at you, i shouldn’t have said what i did,” he’s able to continue, trying hard to return your gaze so that you may be able to spot the sincerity in this apology just as you had his last. “i didn’t mean those things. i was,” he pauses, knowing this is the point in which he could still turn around, pretend that he wasn’t upset for the reasons he was, and so he pushes through anyway. “i was angry at myself and you were just who i could take it out on. you didn’t deserve that, i’m sorry.”
he searches your face for any change, desperate to see your usual expression replace the frown you sported and smooth out the current crease between your brows, and when your face doesn’t change he’s once again tempted to reach out to you. he wants to just take your face into his hands, to gently message the tension from your temples and to place a gentle peck to the tip of your nose in hopes that he might get to see your smile up close once more before you might just vanish from his life forever.
but instead he keeps his hands firmly at his sides and says, “i wish i could take it all back.”
“all of it?” you ask quickly, your voice practically overlapping his own, and your expression does shift but wooyoung can’t make out the difference.
neither of you speak then for what feels like an hour, your eyes determinedly set on his while you let wooyoung’s gaze flit along your face, trying to find his answer amongst your features, before he closes his eyes with a wobbly sigh.
“i don’t want to stop loving you,” he says, eyes still closed, “but i have to.”
he can feel his chest caving in, the emptiness he’d started calling home consuming him from the inside out as he finally says what he’d been teetering on the edge of admitting for the last month.
“who told you that?” you question and if wooyoung could bare to open his eyes and actually look at you instead of finding cowardly safety behind his eyelids he is sure you would be wearing the same look of frustration he’s seen directed at him so many times before. although now he knows that it doesn’t carry the same playfulness that usually makes him so endeared, the sparkle in your eye that encourages him to bring out that same look more and more.
wooyoung lets out a humorless chuckle, shoulders dropping heavily as he becomes hyper aware of the way he’s been tensing his entire body. “no one,” he says before scrunching up his face in hopes that it will quiet the urge for him to open his eyes and see your face once more. “everyone.”
he hears you let out a huff before you comment, almost indignantly, “well i didn’t get a say.”
wooyoung can’t recall a time he’s opened his eyes faster, tenderness quickly replacing the shock he’d felt when he sees you once more, your gaze now firmly set on the cup wooyoung had placed on yeosang’s desk and arms crossed over your chest, a pout on your lips. he feels the corners of his own lips ticking up in a fond smile.
“so,” he begins to ask, a hint of playfulness coloring his tone as he feels hope build inside of him, “what do you think i should do?”
he’s not sure if you were expecting his eyes to still be closed but as you bring your gaze back to wooyoung’s face he feels like he can easily spot a hint of nervousness beneath your determined expression. you both find yourself in silence once more, this time he’s the one to hold firm, your gaze now traveling along his skin.
“i love you.”
he’s sure if he was any farther from you that he wouldn’t have been able to hear it, the words flowing along an exhale.
“what was that?” he asks, unable to contain the smile that overtakes his features, and he half expects for you to take it back playfully, to mess around with him, but then he watches as a determined smirk creeps onto your face.
“i said,” you start, leaning impossibly closer and placing your hand onto the same spot on his chest as you had earlier. “i love you.”
your lips are on his in an instant, almost imperceptible, the gentlest brush of skin, but wooyoung can feel it.
“i love you too,” he whispers against your lips before one of his hands moves to the back of your neck, the other wrapping around your wrist as he pulls you back into him.
of all the times he’d imagined kissing you, it was nothing like he expected, your lips remaining gentle against his no matter how passionate he became, and wooyoung knew instantly that he was already addicted. he was so utterly consumed by you, and he wouldn’t have if any other way.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
“your drink, my love,” wooyoung says, placing a cup down on the table as he takes the seat next to you, his own coffee in his hands, while he places a gentle kiss against your temple.
“gross,” yeosang comments, watching you both from across the table before taking another bite of his macaron.
“yeah,” hongjoong agrees from his seat on your other side. “i didn’t realize that you two getting together meant we would have to watch you both all over each other all the damn time,” he complains as his boyfriend rolls his eyes on the other side of the table.
wooyoung ignores his older friends in favor of grabbing one of the legs of your chair, pulling you toward him so that he can more easily rest his head against your shoulder. he smirks against your skin as he feels a shudder run down your spine when he turns his head to press his lips into the crook of your neck.
you and wooyoung are gathered with a few of your friends in the same cafe that set everything into motion, your favorite place, enjoying your first quiet afternoon as an official couple.
“come on, i think they’re cute,” mingi says, looking between yeosang and hongjoong, who both exchange disgusted looks.
you chuckle, the sound light and airy, making wooyoung’s heart float as he feels the vibrations through his own chest.
“thank you mingi,” you say with a hint of finality, ready for the attention to be away from you two.
you’re thankful that the conversation drifts into a new direction, yeosang mentioning something about the latest star wars movie and sending seonghwa into a spiral about his thoughts and opinions.
“thank you,” wooyoung whispers, lifting his head from your shoulder before resting it on his hand, his elbow propped on the table in front of you.
you send him a confused look, tilting your head gently, but with the way he stares at you, overwhelmed with devotion, you can’t keep a tender smile from gracing your features. “for what?”
“forgiving me,” he elaborates, taking your hand in his.
for a minute you simply bask in the genuine warmth of the moment, watching the way his gaze shifts to your hand as he starts to play with your fingers gently. you’re tempted to bring his own hand up to your lips and let the whole situation stay genuine, but you just can’t keep from teasing.
“who says i forgave you?”
wooyoung is quick to look back up at your face, eyes wide with worry as he lifts his head from his hand, now using both of his hands to hold one of yours. you watch the worry melt away as a pout takes over his features, seeing the playful smirk on your own.
you can hear the whine building in his throat before he even opens his mouth, your gentle giggles matching his volume. “babe,” he groans, dropping his shoulders as he pulls your hand against his chest.
once you’ve calmed down enough from your giggle fit, you reach the hand he’s not holding up to hold his face, watching with adoration as he turns his head to press his lips into your palm before he leans fully into your touch.
as you both sit, just savoring the moment, wooyoung can’t help but reflect on how you both ended up here. so, as he falls deeper into his romantic haze, he can’t help but let you know, “i love to love you.”

The Way I Loved You
Tumblr media
A/N: “The Way I Loved You” by Taylor Swift...that’s all. That’s the note. Okay and angst, break-ups, the whole thing. As always enjoy and let me know what you guys think!
Word Count: 6k+
He is sensible and so incredible And all my single friends are jealous He says everything I need to hear and it's like I couldn't ask for anything better
“Okay, I need all the details from this date,” You sipped your drink as your friends begged to hear the details of your latest fling. You had been seeing Alias for the last few weeks and it had been going well. Really well, actually.
He was a young tech hot shot that was one of the sweetest men you had ever known. Your best friend, Riley, had set you up on a date together, begging you to get back out on the dating scene. She claimed that four months was more than enough time to get over a complete heartbreak from the person you thought you were going to spend the rest of your life with.
Riley had shown up at your door one night, seeing you curled up on your couch, telling her you were not in the mood to go out on the town like she swore would fix you.
“Honey, I am so tired of seeing you like this. I have a guy that I work with that I think you would be great with. I’m setting you up on a date with him,” you tried to argue back, but she took your hands in hers and broke the news in the gentlest way she possibly could. “Macy and I saw him out on a date,” you felt like you had swallowed a sandwich made entirely out of nails.
Of course he had gone out. You and Peter had been broken up for four months. You remembered how the girls in his classes looked at him and when he took that job at Oscorpe, how his coworkers eyed him. Peter had shifted into a guy of total confidence during college, letting some of his alter ego seep into him and it made him catnip for girls. You agreed to a date. One date.
Alias was a total gentleman and incredibly handsome. Your first date had been to dinner and a movie, totally cliche, but it was a lot of fun. He had taken you to one of his favorite places in Chinatown and you had one of the best meals of your life. The two of you were constantly laughing and he had picked out a great movie to see that resulted in you two holding hands for the entire second half of the screening. He walked you home, kissed you on the cheek, and said he had a wonderful time with you.
You agreed. It had been a great time and your thoughts only wandered to him two times. That was serious progress for you. Riley had called you that night and pleaded with you to tell her all about it, and you did. Your other close friend, Macy, had been conferenced in just a few minutes into the call, wanting to hear all about the night.
Only two days later he had shown up at your doorstep with flowers asking for another date. I mean, how could you say no to a personal flower delivery? Every date since has been great. He loved to shower you with compliments, he took you to places you had never seen in New York, and you were comfortable with him. Comfortable was good, right? You couldn’t ask for better because Alias was what every girl dreamt of.
On the fourth date you two slept together. It was lovely. Nothing spectacular or mind blowing, but it was good. You stayed the night at his place and woke up to him making you breakfast in bed, flower on the tray and all. Alias was great. He was great.
A month had flown by in the blink of an eye and you and your friends sat at the bar you loved to frequent together, all crammed into a tiny booth as they wanted to hear about the work event Alias had taken you to where he had introduced you to all of his coworkers and bosses.
You chewed on your straw, your face starting to warm as the attention fully settled on you. “It was great. Open bar, we got all dressed up, danced a bit. It was a sit down dinner so we were at a table with his bosses. Alias is up for a big promotion right now so it was more about good impressions. I didn’t really do a lot,” you shrugged, taking a long swig from your drink.
Riley’s eyes narrowed at you about to urge you to continue when Macy’s widened, shooting a worried glance to Riley. They quickly gathered their things, telling you it was time to go as you laughed at their sudden want to leave. “C’mon, we can go back to my place and continue this talk. It’s so crowded here and I can hardly hear you. I’m getting a headache, let’s go,” they started dragging you from the booth and when you looked to where you saw Macy shoot another brief look, you almost dropped your glass.
He looked as good as ever. He had thrown his head back, a loud laugh bellowing from him as he and a small group stood at the bar. His hair was messy, maybe he had just gotten off of patrol and met some friends for drinks. You saw Harry on his other side along with some friends from his classes that you used to hang out with.
You recalled the many nights spent in his apartment, everyone cramming for midterms, music playing, shared snacks and jokes about whatever you were all studying for. You hadn’t seen anyone since the breakup. Not because they didn’t try to reach out because they did, but because it was too much of a reminder of him. Too close for comfort as you took the time to get over it, but you felt a twinge of guilt at the fact that you had closed off to almost everyone you knew.
Harry caught sight of you first, his mouth falling slack. It quickly turned into a large smile as he pushed through the groups that crowded the space between you two. He called your name, snapping your attention to him as he approached you with his arms open. You smiled brightly at him. “Holy shit, I haven’t seen you in forever,” his arms wrapped around you, you returning the hug and laughing together as he pulled back, hands still on you.
“Why haven’t you answered my calls or texts? I’ve been trying to get a hold of you for months,” a quick look of sadness took over his features and you shook your head, looking away from the blonde that you had been friends with since before high school, deciding that your shoes were of much more interest.
“Y’know. Just been busy,” Riley stepped in, lightly pushing Harry away. “We were just leaving,” you nodded your head as Harry’s face fell even more. “Wait, can you stay for just one more? He’d love to see you,” your eyes flew to Macy as she shook her head, pulling you back a bit.
“That’s not a good idea. Our Uber’s here, let’s go,” you quickly hugged Harry again, telling him that you’d call him this week to meet for dinner or something. As you walked out of the bar, Peter caught sight of you and his face morphed into one of shock and disbelief as your eyes met.
You quickly ducked your head down, letting your friends run you out as you heard Peter’s voice yelling your name out over the music and crowds. He was pushing through people, still shouting your name as you exited the building. He followed your group out of the bar and yelled out, asking you to just stop for a second to talk. You didn’t look back.
He respects my space And never makes me wait And he calls exactly when he says he will
You had been waiting for over two hours at the restaurant. It was yours and Peter’s anniversary and he was nowhere to be found. The waiter came back to the table with a small smile on her face as she poured more water into your glass, your meal finished long ago. “You know, I think I’ll just take the check, thanks,” she shook her head and leaned on the table. “It’s on me tonight. I am so sorry,” you shrugged her off. This was Peter’s thing. You knew what to expect, but even on important nights like this you still got your hopes up. You don’t know why you did it to yourself. It was a let down each time.  
You even knew that when Peter said dates start at five you knew you didn’t have to be ready until 6:30 at the earliest and even then most nights you were going to be early. It still didn’t take the sting away.
“All I’m saying is he must be a complete asshole if he stood you up,” you offered a small smile back, thanking her and sighed, checking your phone again. No missed calls or texts. The wind was whipping outside as you pulled your coat tighter around you, your leather gloves barely keeping your hands warm.
When you got back to your tiny apartment, you stepped in, glad to be welcomed by the warm embrace of the cozy space. You shrugged your coat off and glanced into your bedroom at the partially opened fire escape window.
You battled within yourself for a few seconds, trying to determine if you wanted to close it. It would send a message to Peter letting him know how hurt you were. That even on such important nights like this that you were still such a low priority to him that you sat at your favorite restaurant, completely embarrassed as you were stood up. Again. That he couldn’t carve out forty-five minutes for you. You weren’t as important to him as all his other responsibilities.
Moving to the window, you pulled it shut. A shaky breath of air released from you and you went to the living room, turning the tv on and putting on your comfort show, snuggling into a blanket. You must have dozed off because you woke up to knocking on your front door and you checked the clock on the stove.
It was just past midnight. You knew exactly who was at the door. You sighed, getting up and going to it, barely pulling it open. Peter held a bunch of crumpled flowers and a mangled card that looked like it had a tire track across the envelope. You didn’t smile back at him as he stared at you.
“Happy Anniversary, babe. I am so sorry about dinner, but I will make it up to you I promise. I know I normally come in through the window, but it was closed tonight,” you didn’t move to open the door any further to allow him to come in. Peter could see that you weren’t going to move and he sighed, dropping the flowers to his side.
“You’re mad at me and you have every right to be. It’s just that I had a work thing I had to do and then I needed to do a Spider thing and time got away from me,” your eyes narrowed at him, arms crossing over your chest.
“Peter, it’s our two year anniversary. You couldn’t even call me? Hell, I would’ve even sufficed with a text, but you couldn’t even do that,” his large doe eyes peered down at you, he was nervous. You could tell he was.
You pushed the heels of your palms into your eyes and sighed. “You can’t keep treating me like this, Peter. Like I am not a priority to you. It’s not fair to me. I sat at that damn restaurant for two and half hours like a fool. The waitress felt so bad for me that she comped my meal,” you leaned away from the door and grabbed his present off the entryway table.
You shoved it into his arms and you could feel the tears welling up, your throat going tight. “You couldn’t even get me a card that wasn’t dropped in the street. The flowers looked like you grabbed them from the garbage. Happy anniversary, Peter,” you could see that he was getting ready to say something, to jump to his own aid when you closed the door, locking it behind you.
Tears made their way down your face as you hiccuped. You turned the tv off and for the first time since you and Peter had started dating, closed the blinds to the window on your fire escape.
After your anniversary things only soured more. Peter had all but stopped responding to texts when he was busy, stood you up on more nights often than not, and when you were together you were only arguing.
You two stood on opposite ends of the living room as you tried to catch your breath, your throat hurting from the yelling you two had been doing for the last half an hour. Peter’s hands rubbed over his face and shrugged at you after a beat, a bitter laugh leaving him. “I don’t know what you want from me. I don’t know what else I can do. I feel like you’re asking so much of me. I am stretched so thin and I am exhausted. This relationship feels like a chore more than anything,” your eyes snapped to his, as your breathing all but evened out.
As soon as the words left his mouth regret seeped through him. His eyes slipped shut and he was going to try and rethink what he spoke to you, but you beat him to it.
“Then it’s time for you to go,” you whispered out into the room. It hung between you both as you watched him. His eyes met yours and he shook his head, trying to backtrack what he had said. “No, that’s not what I meant,” you stepped back from him and held your hand up to keep him from coming forward anymore.
“You said it because you feel it, Peter. For the last few months I have felt like such a burden to you. When I ask you to call me, when I ask you to go to dinner with me, fuck even when I just want to see you. I hardly even get that anymore, Peter. You think I’m a chore to you and that’s fine, but I am not going to continue to be that for you. I will lighten your load and make your life much easier. I will make both our lives easier because I am tired of being hurt every single damn day with you. I do not deserve that,” you had tears running down your face, but you had spoken so evenly and calmly, it frightened him.
Peter ran his hands through his hair and hunched over, his hands going to his thighs. You looked at the door and back at the boy that you were madly in love with, but who didn’t feel the same way about you anymore. Your heart was shattering and he didn’t put up much of a fight. Like always.
“I need you to go,” he looked at you and nodded his head, tears rimming his eyes, a loud sniffle escaping from his throat as he moved to the door. He didn’t say anything else as he left. Even if he had put up even just the slightest fight to keep you, you more than likely would’ve given it another go. But he didn’t look back at you.
On the dot at 6:02 your phone rang, a large smile crossing your face as you saw Alias’ name pop up on the screen. “Hey, cutie,” his deep laugh came through the speaker at your pet name for him. “Hello, dear. I am on my way to your place right now and we will head out to get dinner, yeah?”
Your smile grew as you stood, already dressed and anxiously awaiting his arrival. “Yes, absolutely,” as you two hung up you knew he would only be a few minutes away from your apartment.
Alias was always on time. You don’t think there had ever been a time when you had waited for him. He called everyday when he was off work at 6:02. It was a nice routine that you had settled into. You weren’t sure why you felt off by it. Maybe even bored.
After another fantastic meal, you and Alias walked side by side, your hands melded together, laughing at a story he was sharing from his meeting he had earlier that day when you heard your name echoed out into the night. Your head turned, trying to place the voice.
It was Harry and Peter. You had met with Harry the following week after the bar run in and had sat and chatted. You told Harry that he was completely off limits for a chat topic and he followed through with that. You two had caught up and it had been great to see him. It was like old times again.
Harry and Peter crossed the street to get you two, your hand holding Alias’ suddenly felt like it was profusely sweating. Alias had a large smile, showcasing his perfect teeth as he saw the two men before him. “Hey Harry,” he took you into a side hug and you didn’t know what to say as Peter had a scowl taking over his normally soft features.
Alias cleared his throat and you jumped at the sound, an awkward laugh bubbling from you. “Oh gosh, I’m so sorry. Harry, this is Alias, my boyfriend. Alias this is a close friend of mine, Harry,” they both shook hands, saying how it was nice to meet each other and Harry glanced at Peter.
You didn’t take the time to introduce them, offering an excuse saying you needed to get home, that you had an early morning for work the next day, but that you’d text Harry later. Peter stayed rooted to his spot, watching as you and Alias walked away, the angry look only going deeper.
The last thing you heard as you two walked away was his voice, dripping with pure agony that you had only heard a couple other times since you had known him. “She has a boyfriend, Harry,” you chewed the inside of your cheek as Alias picked up his story again, but you weren’t listening. You turned and looked to see Harry patting Peter’s shoulder as he spoke softly to him.
Yours and Peter’s eyes locked, the look of pure anguish taking over him as he saw Alias place his arm around your shoulders, pulling you into his side, getting your attention away from the two boys.
You didn’t look back again.
He can't see the smile I'm faking And my heart's not breaking 'Cause I'm not feeling anything at all
The glass was sweating in the summer heat. Your gaze was focused on the two beads of water racing down the side of the glass, seeing who would reach the white tablecloth first. You could feel your own sweat drip down your neck.
It was almost a hundred degrees out and you and Alias were out for brunch on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. When he cleared his throat, gathering your attention back to him, you plastered a smile on your face.
“Are you feeling okay? It’s really warm and I want to make sure you don’t have heat exhaustion or anything,” that dazzling smile that showcased his picture perfect teeth had you laughing, shaking yourself out of the haze you had put yourself in. “Oh me? I’m totally fine. I just zoned out for a second, sorry. What were you saying?”
His smile softened as he leaned back in his chair and sighed. “You’re bored, aren’t you?” Your brows furrowed and you were about to protest, claiming his story was interesting, but you had just eaten a big meal and were feeling sleepy, but he chuckled and grabbed your hand from across the table.
“I mean with us. You don’t feel a spark with us, do you?” You were taken aback, fumbling to find the words to claim otherwise, but as you stumbled over your thoughts you knew he was right.
You were bored. You didn’t feel anything extraordinary with him. He was the sweetest man you had ever been with. He cared about you tremendously and treated you like a queen, but you had fallen into a pattern so quickly and you found yourself wanting more. Missing more.
You squinted at him, guilt taking over your entire being. “Alias, you are wonderful. Honestly, everyone is so jealous that I even got a date with you. I just-I don’t know. I feel like there’s something missing, y’know?” His thumb rubbed over the back of your hand, squeezing gently and nodding his head.
“I do. I’m sorry I couldn’t be that something more for you,” you shook your head and laughed, leaning forward and making eye contact with him. “God, please don’t apologize. You will be that something for someone. I’m sorry that it wasn’t me,” he brought your hand to his lips and kissed it.
Alias walked you home that morning, giving you a long hug before saying his goodbyes. When you stepped back into your apartment, you groaned, shrinking against the door and moving to sit on the floor.
“Riley’s gonna kill me.”
And you were wild and crazy Just so frustrating Intoxicating, complicated Got away by some mistake and now
Your arms and legs were wrapped around him as he propelled you both through the air, laughs bouncing off the surrounding buildings as you clung to him for dear life, eyes squeezed shut.
“Open your eyes, babe!” You could feel his grip on you was as tight as ever, but when you opened your eyes and realized you were on the top of a massive skyscraper, your breath caught in your throat.
You were piggybacking on Peter, he had webbed your hands and feet together, just in case he said, but he kept one hand wrapped under your thigh, a comforting touch to ensure he was there and he wouldn’t let anything happen to you two. He undid the webs, gently setting you down as you overlooked all of New York from where you two were perched.
“You do this every night?” You whispered out to him, almost afraid that if you spoke louder it would carry through the entire city and everyone would hear. He pulled you into him, the material of his suit rubbed against your skin as you looked at the buildings that stretched out as far as the eye could see.
You sat between his legs as you looked around in awe. You weren’t sure when he had pulled the mask off, but you felt his lips gently land on your cheek and your face warmed. You two sat like that for over an hour, watching as lights turned on and off, cars went by, people watching together and Peter’s embrace keeping you warm.
After a while he reluctantly sighed and checked your phone to see the time. “I need to get you home. You have an early class,” your eyes closed, leaning back against him, just wanting to savor the moment, but you gave in, standing with him as he crouched in front of you.
You hopped onto his back, he webbed you to him again, and he let out a low laugh. “Oh you’re so gonna hate me after this,” your eyes widened, repeatedly asking him why as he took a running start off the building, your screams carried through the air as he dove face first, your grip on him somehow getting tighter like that was at all possible at the free falling motion, your stomach going into your throat.
Within a split second, he pulled you two back up, letting you catch your breath before flipping you both through the New York air. After a beat, you weren’t scared anymore, letting your laughter mix with his as he swung you home, even asking him to flip you again, getting more comfortable with the movements. Peter Parker fell in love with you that night.
You weren’t too far behind, falling head over heels for him on a random Thursday night. In fact, it was only two weeks later when it hit you. It had been a particularly shitty day and all you wanted to do was get home and curl into bed and let the world continue on as you slept for the next fourteen hours straight.
Instead, when you got home there was music shaking the walls, the smell of cooking wafting through your house, and the sound of something sizzling in a pan in your kitchen. As you peeked around the corner, Peter stood at the stove with your apron tied around his waist and he was dancing along to the song blaring through the speakers.
Your first smile of the day took shape as you watched him as his voice called out to you in between him belting the lyrics. “You know I heard you come in, bug,” his entire being looked as relaxed as possible as he made his way over to you. His hands pulled you to him, planting a huge kiss on you.
He moved to take your coat off, seeing you were wearing one of his cardigans underneath. “I’m sorry, I borrowed it this morning. It was freezing and I just grabbed it-” he cut you off, placing a kiss on your forehead, a shrug rolling off of him. “It looks much better on you, honey. All my clothes do,” he pointed to the barstool and you took a seat, a sigh releasing from you as you were finally off your feet for the first time since you had woken up that morning, kicking off your shoes with a groan.
You peered around the boy, catching sight of what had been cooking in the pan and when you spotted your favorite meal you could have bursted into tears right then and there. Peter picked back up with his song, singing it horribly off key as he set a full glass of wine in front of you, turning back to the pan and continuing with his task.
The worries of your day and of what tomorrow would hold melted away as you and Peter talked about your respective days at work and why your day had been as horrible as it had. “And then he yelled at me, Peter. In front of everyone at the meeting. All because I had sat in the wrong seat at the conference table. It was so embarrassing,” you shoved a forkful of food into your mouth after finishing, Peter leaned on the counter next to you, eyebrows furrowed. “I can have a very close friend of mine pay him a visit. The not-so-friendly neighborhood Spider-Man,” you smirked as you sipped more from your glass.
“He doesn’t come out often, but I bet he would be more than glad to do that for you,” he winked as he finished his food, moving his plate into the sink. You shook your head, finishing what was left on your plate and downing your wine. “Well, tell him I said thank you, but I need to keep this job and I have a feeling that he would most likely get me fired,” Peter grabbed your plate and chuckled.
He moved around the counter and wrapped his arms around you from behind, letting you swivel the stool to face him, miming his movements and burying your head into his chest. “Thank you for dinner, Petey. I really needed this,” his hands rubbed up and down your back, placing a quick peck to the crown of your head.
“Anything for you, bug. Let’s go lay in bed and watch tv, yeah?” You nodded and monitored his movements as he crouched down in front of you. You snickered as you hopped onto his back, feeling his hands land under your thighs as he stood up. He lightly adjusted you, letting you wrap your arms around his neck and your legs tightly around his waist as he ran around your apartment, jumping onto the walls and crawling around as your laughter mixed with his, tears streaming down your face.
You two had settled down, laying in bed together, Peter completely underneath you as you laid flush on him. You glanced at the boy who was quickly dozing off and felt an unfamiliar feeling worm its way inside you. The realization dawned on you as his breathing evened out, hands going still on your back, that you were in love with him. Completely and hopelessly in love with him.
You weren’t sure that the feeling ever went away, even after everything.
I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain It's 2AM and I'm cursing your name I'm so in love that I acted insane And that's the way I loved you Breaking down and coming undone It's a roller coaster kind of rush And I never knew I could feel that much And that's the way I loved you
It had been miserable in New York the last few days, reaching incredibly high temperatures, but to your sweet relief a storm had blown in earlier that evening, putting a chill in the air as the rain poured down.
You sat on your couch, watching The Devil Wears Prada for the millionth time when you heard knocking at your door. Checking your phone you noticed it was almost two in the morning. You hesitantly looked at the door and scanned your surroundings, trying to figure out what you could use as a weapon.
With your candle holder in hand, you slowly made your way to your door, moving as quietly as you could. You peered out the peephole and saw no one there. Contemplating if you should open it, you decided that it would be okay. You had a hefty weapon that you could do some real damage with if need be.  
You slowly opened the door and saw that it was totally empty, but heard the entrance door to the building close, signaling someone had in fact been knocking. You rushed over to the window and saw him walking away from your building, being drenched by the rain.
You opened the window, yelling out to be heard over the storm. “Peter!” He immediately stopped and turned, looking up at the window. “Hold on!”
Slamming it shut, you slipped your shoes on and ran down to where he stood in the street. When you came face to face with him, you could see that he was battling within himself as you stood in front of him, alone, for the first time in almost six months.
“You don’t have a jacket on. Here,” he removed his, putting it over your shoulders as you let your arms go into the sopping wet fabric. He instantly got soaked, his hair falling into his face as he used a hand to push it back, water falling off the slope of his nose.
His smell encompassed you and it felt like everything you knew, making your stomach erupt with butterflies as he filled your senses. Neither of you said anything as he held his gaze on you, scanning your figure.
“Peter, why are you here? Is everything okay?” His stare was intense, eyes dark and swimming with his thoughts and you saw how his jaw clenched at the question. “You won’t see me or talk to me,” you eyed him, only offering a shrug. “We broke up. When that happens people typically stop talking. I needed time to get over us. You. If I kept-” he cut you off, looking borderline distraught as he spoke over you.
“You broke up with him,” you stood rooted to your spot, getting pissed off at his words. “How do you know that?” He didn’t falter or hesitate as he answered.
“I saw it,” you took a step towards him, arms folding over your chest as your voice raised. “You’ve been watching me? Are you shitting me, Peter? Who was stalking me? You or Spider-Boy?” His nostrils flared at the nickname that he utterly despised.
“Doesn’t matter,” you scoffed, breaking your gaze from his, laughing as you grew more agitated. “It absolutely fucking does. What gives you the right, Peter?” Your voice raised even more, almost to the point of screaming at him.
“I love you, damn it! I fucking love you!” His tone matched yours, levels of anger and irritation matching each other. Your eyes widened, shaking your head, your wet hair slapping your cheeks at the movement. “I fucked up letting you go. I said the stupidest fucking things I could have ever said to you that night and it absolutely wrecked me. I have been a goddamn mess. I feel like I’ve been losing my mind!” His hands ran through his soaked locks, pulling at the strands as he continued yelling.
Your head didn’t stop shaking, a chorus of no’s mingling with his words as you watched him, tears stinging your eyes. He moved closer, almost flush with you.
“I treated you like shit. I hadn’t slept in two days, I was stressed and I know that isn’t an excuse and I will never be able to apologize enough for it. I can’t forgive myself for what I said to you, but I didn’t mean a single fucking word. I love you. Bug, I love you so much. I am so sorry. I will never be able to apologize enough to you,” you took a step back from him as his tone grew more desperate, pain seeping into each syllable, fighting tears as he talked.
“I just need to know if you love me. If you tell me that you hate me and that you want me to leave you alone, I swear I will. I’ll leave you alone and you won’t deal with me again. But I need to know if you love me. Do you love me?” He was crying at the end, stumbling over his words.
Your eyes snapped up to his as his breathing grew more labored as each word left his mouth, stabbing you the more he said. You couldn’t believe what he was telling you and you didn’t want to hold anything in anymore, knowing this was your chance to get it all off your chest.
“You fucked everything up, Peter! Alias was amazing. He-he called me every single day. He never missed a date. Everyone was jealous of me for landing him! But you know what the worst fucking part is?” You were yelling through the tears, trying to catch your breath as pain flashed across Peter’s face.
“He wasn’t you. Every time I was with him all I could think of was you. I felt absolutely nothing with him because he wasn’t you. He was everything you were supposed to be that you weren’t, but it didn’t fucking matter because he isn’t half of what you are and I fucking hate you for that,” Peter’s hands landed on either side of your jaw as he pulled you to him, lips crashing together.
It was ugly and filled with hatred as your teeth clashed, trying to taste everything you had missed. When you pulled away first, his grip didn’t loosen. Your breath mingled together, stuttering as his forehead rested on yours.
“One more chance. Please? I need one more chance,” you fought within yourself, trying to decide as quickly as possible, sort out all the feelings you had been saddled with during the aftermath of the worst time of your life. It all came down to the fact that you missed him. You so desperately missed him.
Your eyes opened, seeing his cedar, impenetrable look dance over your face, trying to determine your answer before you did. You sucked in a deep breath as you nodded your head, feeling the rain drip down your nose as you met his look.
“One more chance.”

Skyrim men first kiss with their s/o
I got my first request and I'm so excited! Thank you @gaymingbinosaur, for the suggestion I hope you like it!
All of these are running on you and the character have been in a relationship for at least a few days, gender neutral reader
Farkas, Brynjolf, Nazier, Erik, Ulfric
Farkas
When you asked Farkas to be in a relationship he quickly agreed. He had seen how you kept the companions secret about being werewolves, your fighting abilities, your courage, as well as the time you knocked him on his ass during a spar; all of this made him fall head over heels for you. The first time you kissed was after a job the two of you had been sent on. You had hugged him after successfully killing the three saber cats you had been sent to fight and when you looked up at him he couldn't help himself, he cupped your face in his hands before catching your lips with his. It was a short and sweet thing but said more words to you than he could ever hope to say, and when you pulled away you saw the bright pink along his cheeks and had to ask him about it "It's just from the cold is all..." is all he mutters before capturing your lips again.
Brynjolf
When you first approached Brynjolf about a relationship he wasn't sure as such ties can be dangerous in his line of work but he was willing to give it a try. It was going better than he expected, as someone who had only had flings and one night stands having a committed significant other was a new adventure. The first kiss came when a newer member of the Guild started getting a bit more friendly with you in the Flaggon than he liked. He wasn't usually jealous but seeing that rookie leaning toward you with a suggestive smile on his face irked him. Coming up behind the bar stool your sitting on he uses his fingers to grab your chin gently, tilting it up and placing a deep and possessive kiss to your lips, side eying the new comer as he does so. When he pulls away from the kiss leaving you in a daze the rookie has already moved off leaving the seat open for Brynjolf to take with that signature smirk "Sorry sweetroll, couldn't let that newbie take my prize."
Nazier
Nazier agreed to a relationship after the new sanctuary got settled and more established not wanting to be distracted while building up the family again. First kiss between the two of you came after a particularly difficult assassination you went on started getting bumps in the road. It should of been simple; the two of you sneak into a party, each kill one of the two targets, get out. Well who could of known that another party goer would wonder into the wrong room and sound the alarm on the two of you. You had to spilt up, make it harder to find the two of you. Of course you couldn't of known that it would of taken another day to fully shake off the guards following you, by the time you got back to the sanctuary Nazier had been waiting for almost two days for you and was starting to worry you were captured or killed. When he finally saw you enter the sanctuary he pulled you away into a private room before pulling you close and giving you a strong heavy kiss. "Next time do me a favor and don't worry me like that, my Listener."
Erik
Erik had been grateful when you not only convinced his father to not only let him leave Rorikstead but pay for him to get his armor that when you came back and offered for him to follow you to gain experience he couldn't agree fast enough. In the time that followed he was in awe of you; the way you fought, how you handled stuck up Jarls, how you treated those who needed help, how when someone asked you to find something you would agree, he was head over heels in no time at all. When he nervously approached you about being in a relationship he was so sure you'd say no, that when you agreed he was frozen for a moment. The kiss came after you had defeated a dragon for the first time in front of him, and although he had tried to help in the fight admittedly you did most of the work. Watching the soul of the dragon enter you he couldn't help but stare like you were one of the gods in living form. "I'd really like to kiss you now...Uh I mean if you'd let me!" the poor boy was a stammering mess until you showed pity and shut the farm hand up with a kiss saving him from humiliating himself further.
Ulfric
Ulfric had been happy you were on his side during the war, helping drive the empire out and helping him lead his men to victory. He had approached you about being in a relationship shortly after the battle at Solitude and when you agreed he was quite pleased. He was quick to offer you a room in the Palace of Kings if you didn't already have a home in Windhelm so you were close to each other. Of course if you refused as you had matters you had to tend to as Dragonborn he understood. The kiss came when you returned to Windhelm for the first time since the war had ended. Ulfric had been busy putting Jarls who supported him into power as well as working on organizing the moot. When you arrived at the palace however he put aside the plans to quickly go to you taking you in his arms in a tight hug "I've missed you, I've been counting the days till you came back to me." He whispered in your ear before pulling away just enough to give you a gentle kiss, testing the waters if you're ok with it. If you return the kiss he will deepen it a bit, not to much as there are others around but if you pull away he will respect it and lead you over to the dinning tables so you both can sit, eat and catch up with each other.

Okay, so. A thought came to me. And it's semi supernatural? Like cursed object? Okay, uh...wait. Oh right! So,
...
...
oh yeah! Zhan Yao finds an old artifact and he has to transport it with Bai Yutong because people that are in contact with it claims they've time traveled, or whatever, right? And in the midst of transporting it, some criminals are chasing them cuz they want to steal it from some rich ass collector for whatever reason. Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong ends up in a crash cuz assholes stepped on the gas. (Poor little white car, it will be missed and fixed, or replaced. Cuz Yutang rich) Anyways, the car jerks and flings them around. When they open their eyes again, there are guns pointing at them. And a man approaches them, tells them they are under arrest for trying to steal a priceless artifact, and are taken to the police station where they are interrogated by dun dun dun!!!! Jiang Yuelou, who is in charge of recovering the stolen artifact, which at this time it's not and its just a rich man's love token from his deceased wife and he treasures the pocket watch a lot. Things happen, people gets kidnapped, some die and others get hurt, Yuzhi gets caught in the crossfire and saved by Zhan Yao who also gets caught in the crossfire, because they attract trouble like bees to honey. (Zhan Junbai may or may not be an ancestor.) Things get weird but along the way Yuelou and Yuzhi trusts Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao. (They can't be that bad if they rescued Yuzhi.) Yutong gets jealous because Xiao Bai stole Zhan Yao from him. And they eventually go back to their time via the power of the pocket watch and realize that only minutes, hours maxed, has passed despite being in the past for months. They doubt whether or not it was real. (Maybe they end up bring back a tiny proof that they did in fact time travel.) And artifact cracked so its not like they can try again. Maybe they'll meet Yuelou and Yuzhi of the future one day. Or maybe they are the reincarnated versions. I don't know. TBH, the idea was just "Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao time travels and meets Jiang Yuelou and Chen Yuzhi."
Ohhh...I'm listening, I'm listening...so what you're telling me is that Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong basically get isekaied back to Jiang Yuelou and Chen Yuzhi's time period...that's fucking hilarious, I love it
Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong had been assigned to some weird cases before but they swore this one was the fucking weirdest
You see, they walked into the office one day, only to be greeted by Bao Sir, who held a small box in his hand
“Bao Sir”
Bao Sir smiled before he held out the box to them
“I have a special assignment for you two”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao frowned before Bai Yutong reached out and took the box from him, opening it before he looked at him in confusion
“A…watch?”
Bao Sir nodded as he handed them a piece of paper with an address on it
“Yes.  A local professor who is a friend of mine asked me if I would put my two best detectives on an assignment of transferring this watch to the local museum”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao frowned
“Why did he want us?”
Bao Sir shrugged
“I’m not entirely sure.  When I asked, he said that all of the people he had previous asked to transport said watch mysteriously…disappeared”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao’s eyes widened
“Disappeared?!”
Bao Sir nodded
“Apparently, according to him, they all “time traveled”.  But that, of course, is nonsense as time travel doesn’t exist.  And since you both are men of science, I doubt you’ll have any problems”
He then smiled
“Good luck”
He then walked past them, leaving Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong alone with the box, a stunned look on both of their faces
After he left, Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong looked down at the watch before Bai Yutong sighed
“Come on, let’s get this over with so we can focus on actually important cases”
He then closed the box and turned, heading out of the department, Zhan Yao on his heels
After leaving the department, Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong got into Bai Yutong’s car, Bai Yutong typing the address into his phone’s GPS before he put the car into drive and began making their way towards the museum
As they drove towards the museum, Zhan Yao looked at the box in his lap before he opened it and pulled out the watch, looking at it
Bai Yutong glanced over at him before he hummed
“Do you believe what Bao Sir said?”
Zhan Yao glanced back at him
“What, that this watch causes people to time travel?”
Bai Yutong nodded
“Yeah”
Zhan Yao shook his head
“There’s no such thing as time travel”
Bai Yutong frowned
“But how do you explain those disappearances?”
Zhan Yao hummed
“Well, maybe they got killed?  Because this watch seems pretty valuable and looks like something that would be in a collector’s collection”
Bai Yutong frowned
“Are you serious?  You think a collector actually had them killed?”
Zhan Yao chuckled softly
“You’d be amazed at collectors will do to get their grubby hands on something valuable or priceless”
Bai Yutong hummed
“I guess so”
As they continued down the road and through the intersection, they didn’t even see a large white truck coming towards them from the left until they were suddenly t-boned, causing both of them to cry out in shock as Bai Yutong’s Lamborghini flipped multiple times before it finally came to a stop
As it sat there in the middle of the road, smoking, one of the people in the white truck (who were actually hired by a collector to steal said watch that Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao were assigned to transport) got out and walked over to Bai Yutong’s Lamborghini, looking inside only to find it empty
“What the fuck?”
Meanwhile, when Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao both slowly opened their eyes, they blinked a few times in confusion, only to realize that there were guns pointed in their faces, causing their eyes to widen in shock
“What the hell?!”
Just then a tall man with light tan skin, brown eyes, and black hair styled in an undercut, his eyes hard
“You’re under arrest”
Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong looked at him in confusion
“For what?!”
The man huffed
“For theft”
“Theft?!”
The man pointed to the watch in Zhan Yao’s hand
“That’s an important artifact and you’ve stolen it”
Both Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong looked down at the watch before they both shook their heads
“No, we were just—”
Just then, two officers surged forward and grabbed them, yanking the watch out of Zhan Yao’s hand as the man waved his hand
“Take them back”
The officers nodded and began dragging Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong away, both men struggling desperately in their grasps
A little while later, both Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao sat in a cell, irritation on their faces just as a tall man with light skin, brown eyes, and short black hair walked into the cell and raised an eyebrow
“Stealing a precious artifact…that’s pretty ballsy”
Bai Yutong tsked
“Look, buddy, we didn’t still shit.  We were assigned to transport that watch to a local museum”
The man raised an eyebrow
“Oh yeah?  And who assigned you to do that?”
“Commissioner Bao Heizei of the Hong Kong Police Department”
The man frowned
“Commissioner Bao?  I’ve never heard of him”
He then looked Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao up and down and hummed
“I don’t believe I’ve ever seen you two either.  What’s your name?”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao glanced at each other before they looked back at him
“Sergeant Bai Yutong and Dr. Zhan Yao, SCI”
 The man frowned
“SCI?”
“Special Cases Investigation unit”
Bai Yutong then motioned to his pocket
“Check my ID if you don’t believe me”
The man hummed before he stepped forward and pulled out Bai Yutong’s ID card, looking at it
“Never heard of it.  Nor you”
He then placed his ID back in his pocket before he crossed his arms
“I don’t believe either of you”
Bai Yutong groaned as Zhan Yao looked at him
“We didn’t steal the watch, we promise.  Just let us call our Commissioner and he’ll explain it to you”
The man scoffed
“Yeah, I’m not going to do that”
Bai Yutong growled
“What do we have to do to prove to you that we didn’t fucking steal that damn watch?”
The man hummed just as Zhan Yao looked at him
“Do you even have any evidence that we stole the watch?  Other than it being in our possession?  Did anyone see us steal it?”
The man was quiet before he shook his head, a look of irritation on his face
“No”
Zhan Yao smirked
“Then you can’t hold us.  It’s just probable cause.  Until you have more evidence to link us to the theft, you have to let us go”
The man growled before he snapped his fingers, two officers soon rushing forward
“Yes Chief Jiang?”
The man, Chief Jiang Yuelou, motioned to Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao
“Release them”
The officers looked at him in shock but quickly did as they were told, as they didn’t want to get on his bad side
Once they were released, Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao looked at Jiang Yuelou as he narrowed his eyes at them
“Don’t go far…I will find a way to arrest you”
Bai Yutong huffed
“Yeah, good luck with that”
He then patted himself down before he looked at Jiang Yuelou
“Where can we get our guns back?”
Jiang Yuelou motioned with his head
“Follow me”
He then led them through the prison, both men looking around with wide eyes; it was nothing like the prisons that they were used to
Jiang Yuelou then motioned to an officer, who placed Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong’s guns before them, Bai Yutong taking his gun first before he handed Zhan Yao his
They both then looked at Jiang Yuelou
“We’ll be seeing you”
They then turned and headed out of the prison, Jiang Yuelou watching them with narrowed eyes
After leaving the prison, Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao looked around with wide eyes; they had no idea where they fuck they were…but considering the police uniforms that the officers were wearing…it definitely wasn’t their era
“Did we actually time travel?”
Bai Yutong shrugged
“Hell if I fucking know.  All I know is that we need to get back to the HKPD or Bao Sir is gonna have our asses for fucking up this assignment”
Zhan Yao nodded
“Yeah”
They then began through the city, looking around in awe
“Jesus, it really feels like we’ve jumped back in time”
Zhan Yao hummed
“Maybe we have”
Bai Yutong looked over at him incredulously
“Don’t tell me you actually believe that the watch causes people to time travel”
Zhan Yao motioned to their surroundings
“Look where we are, Yutong!  How do you explain this?”
Bai Yutong was quiet before he huffed
“I don’t know”
Zhan Yao nodded
“That’s what I thought”
Bai Yutong tsked before he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, only to find that he had no service
“Well fuck me, we can’t even call Commissioner Bai to let him know what happened”
Zhan Yao frowned and quickly pulled out his phone as well, only to find that he also didn’t have service
“Damn”
Bai Yutong groaned
“Well, this is just great, isn’t it?”
Zhan Yao hummed and placed his phone back in his pocket as he sighed
“So we’re somehow trapped in another time period and we can’t contact our boss…this seems like a nightmare”
Bai Yutong nodded
“Yeah, it does”
Just then, his eyes widened
“Fuck, the watch!”
Zhan Yao frowned
“What about the watch?”
Bai Yutong gave him a look
“We don’t have the watch anymore!  How are we supposed to transport it if we don’t even have it?!”
Zhan Yao paused before he hummed
“You’ve got a point…do you think that Chief Jiang would be willing to give it back?”
Bai Yutong scoffed
“Yeah, I fucking doubt it”
Zhan Yao hummed
“Well…shit”
Bai Yutong huffed
“You can say that again”
They both then sighed before they began walking, thinking about how they were going to get the watch back as well as get back to their own time when they heard shouting coming from a nearby alley, causing them to look at each other in concern before they ran towards the shouting, their eyes widening at the sight of two thugs beating up an old man
At the sight, Bai Yutong growled and quickly drew his gun
“Stop!  Police!”
At the bark, the two thugs turned to look at them before they scoffed
“You two aren’t police.  Get lost”
Bai Yutong narrowed his eyes and placed his finger on the trigger
“Step away from him or I’ll shoot”
The two men laughed
“You’ll do no such thing”
Just then, a gunshot echoed through the air before one of the men went down with a scream, clutching at their leg
They all then looked over at Zhan Yao, who was looking at them calmly, his own gun in his hand
“You never said anything about me taking a shot.  Now get lost”
The two thugs nodded and quickly rushed out of the alley, one of the thugs supporting the other as they ran
Once they were gone, both Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong putting their guns away before they rushed over to the old man and looked him over
“Sir, are you alright?”
The old man nodded
“Yes, thank you”
Zhan Yao noticed that he was bleeding from a head wound, causing him to frown
“You’re bleeding.  We should take you to the hospital”
The old man shook his head
“No need.  Just take me to Yuzhi Hall”
Bai Yutong frowned
“Yuzhi Hall?”
The old man nodded
“It’s a clinic”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao both nodded in understanding before they carefully helped the old man to his feet and led him through the street, allowing him to show them where Yuzhi Hall was
When they arrived and stepped inside, a young man took one look at them before his eyes widened and he quickly rushed over to them, taking the old man out of his arms before he guided him over to one of the chairs in front of his desk and sat him down
Once he was sitting, he quickly got to work on cleaning and bandaging the man’s wounds before he looked over at Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong
“What happened?”
“Uh, we saw him getting attacked in an alley not too far from here.  We fought them off and then brought him here at his request”
The young man nodded slowly
“I see”
He then turned back to the old man and smiled gently
“How are you feeling now?”
The old man nodded
“Fine, Dr. Chen”
The young man, Dr. Chen Yuzhi, smiled
“Good, that’s good.  But I think you should just rest for a little bit before you head on your way, hmm?”
The old man nodded
“Alright”
Chen Yuzhi then tilted his head at him
“Tea?”
The old man nodded
“Please”
Chen Yuzhi nodded before he looked at Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong
“And for you?”
Both Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong looked at each other before they nodded
“Please”
Chen Yuzhi smiled and nodded before he turned and headed off to make some tea as the old man looked at Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao
“Thank you for saving me back there”
He then tilted his head
“Are you two new police recruits?  I don’t believe I’ve seen you before”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao shook their heads
“We’re police officers, but not from here.  We’re from Hong Kong”
The old man looked at them curiously
“What brings two police officers from Hong Kong to Jing City?”
Zhan Yao frowned
“Is that where we are?”
The old man nodded
“Indeed”
Bai Yutong nodded slowly
“And…what year is it?”
“1920”
Both Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong looked at him in shock
“1920?!”
The old man laughed
“What year were you expecting?”
Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong both blinked, just as Jiang Yuelou stepped into the clinic and frowned
“The hell are you two doing here?”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao turned to look at him before Bai Yutong huffed
“We could say the same thing.  You don’t look sick”
Jiang Yuelou tsked
“Neither do you”
Just then, Chen Yuzhi walked back out with three tea cups full of tea and handed one to the old man before he looked at Jiang Yuelou and smiled as he handed Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong their tea
“Yuelou.  What are you doing here?”
Jiang Yuelou looked at him and smiled before he cleared his throat
“Well, I was hoping you’d maybe know who the owner of this watch was”
He then reached into his pocket and pulled out the pocket watch his men had taken from Zhan Yao earlier
Just then, the old man gasped
“My watch!”
Jiang Yuelou, Bai Yutong, and Zhan Yao looked at him with wide eyes
“This is your watch?”
The old man nodded as he pushed himself to his feet and walked over to Jiang Yuelou, taking the watch out of his hand, a fond smile on his face before he looked at Jiang Yuelou
“I was on my way to the police station to see if you had found it when I was jumped. Where did you find it?”
Jiang Yuelou glanced at Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao before he cleared his throat
“Oh, one of my men found it”
The old man nodded slowly before he looked at Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao and held out the watch
“Here.  As thanks for saving me earlier”
Bai Yutong, Zhan Yao, and Jiang Yuelou looked at him in shock before Jiang Yuelou shook his head
“But…isn’t that the watch your wife gave you?”
The old man smiled
“Yes, but I think she’d be happy to know that it went to people with good hearts like them, since she had a good heart”
Both Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao blinked in shock before they bowed, Zhan Yao carefully taking the watch from him
“Thank you.  We’ll take good care of it”
The old man smiled and nodded before he continued out of the clinic, Jiang Yuelou, Chen Yuzhi, Zhan Yao, and Bai Yutong watching him leave before Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao looked at the watch
“Now we can fucking go home”
Zhan Yao let out a sigh of relief
“Thank God”
Chen Yuzhi tilted his head curiously
“You needed the watch to go home?”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao looked at him then at Jiang Yuelou before they both sighed
“It’s a…bit of a weird story and I don’t think you’re going to believe us even if we told you”
Jiang Yuelou crossed his arms
“Try us”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao looked at each other before they sighed and explained that they were from the future, that in their “era” they had been assigned to transport the watch that the old man had given them to a museum and that before they could make it there, they were t-boned by a truck
“However, instead of…basically dying, we’re here.  In the 1920s.  And we’re pretty sure this watch brought us here, especially because the person who owned the watch said it caused people to time travel”
Both Jiang Yuelou and Chen Yuzhi stared at them in shock before Jiang Yuelou looked over at Chen Yuzhi
“You’re the doctor here, Yuzhi.  You think they have a screw loose?”
Bai Yutong tsked
“We told you wouldn’t believe us”
Chen Yuzhi hummed
“Well…I don’t know if it’s entirely possible but…I think they’re telling the truth”
Jiang Yuelou looked at him in shock
“HA?!”
Chen Yuzhi motioned to Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao
“Well, they’re clearly not dressed like us…so they kind of stick out like sore thumbs.  Does that mean that they’re from the future?  I don’t know but…maybe”
Jiang Yuelou hummed before he looked at the watch in Zhan Yao’s hand
“So how is that thing supposed to take you back to…wherever you came from?”
Zhan Yao shook his head
“We don’t know…we don’t know how it worked the first time.  I mean…we got in a car accident the first time…but I don’t know if we can replicate it”
Jiang Yuelou shrugged
“We can try”
Chen Yuzhi looked at him in shock
“Jiang Yuelou!  Absolutely not!”
Jiang Yuelou looked over at him and huffed
“I’m kidding, Yuzhi.  I wouldn’t actually do that”
Bai Yutong shot him a look
“Yeah sure”
Jiang Yuelou glanced back at him and smirked as Chen Yuzhi looked at them
“Well…since we don’t really know how to help you…you’re more than welcome to stay here.  I have beds upstairs…and while it’s not much, it’s better than nothing”
Jiang Yuelou glanced at him before he sighed
“Since you two are also police men, you can work at the department until you go back”
Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao looked at the two men in shock before they dipped their heads
“Thank you”
After the rocky start, Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao slowly began to get used to “living” in Jing City
During the day, Bai Yutong worked at the Jing City Police Department with Jiang Yuelou while Zhan Yao worked with Chen Yuzhi at his clinic
Even though Zhan Yao was police like Bai Yutong, he felt like he’d be use to Chen Yuzhi, since the young man worked by himself
Though they did come by the police department whenever Jiang Yuelou needed consultation on a case
Then during the evenings, the four of them would meet up for dinner at the wonton stand that Jiang Yuelou and Chen Yuzhi frequent before going to either Jiang Yuelou or Chen Yuzhi’s place to drink tea before going to Chen Yuzhi's clinic to sleep
And anytime they visited Jiang Yuelou’s place, Xiao Bai would absolutely clamor all over Zhan Yao, must to Bai Yutong’s jealousy because Zhan Yao was his cat
Everything was going rather well (though Bai Yutong and Zhan Yao were worried that their team was missing them) when one day Zhan Yao and Chen Yuzhi were summoned to the police department, only to find Jiang Yuelou, Bai Yutong, and a group of officers gathered in the lobby
“What’s going on?”
Jiang Yuelou looked at them
“We’re going to head out to do a raid on a known drug den.  We want you to come along as medics but stay at a distance, just in case”
Zhan Yao and Chen Yuzhi nodded
“Understood”
Jiang Yuelou nodded in reply before he headed out of the police department, Bai Yutong, the other officers, Zhan Yao, and Chen Yuzhi following after him
They then all got into the police cars before they headed to where the raid was
When they arrived, they all got out before Jiang Yuelou, Bai Yutong, and the officers made their way towards the warehouse while Zhan Yao and Chen Yuzhi stood a distance away
Inside the warehouse, all of the officers spread out while Bai Yutong followed behind Jiang Yuelou, Song Rong, and Sun Yongren, Song Rong and Sun Yongren flanking either side of Jiang Yuelou while Bai Yutong brought up the rear
As they made their way through the warehouse, everyone kept their eyes peeled when Bai Yutong noticed something out of the corner of his eye, making him turn before he fired, a cry echoing through the warehouse, making Jiang Yuelou and the others look at him in shock
“You could see that?”
Bai Yutong nodded
“Yeah.  So just keep going, don’t worry, I’ve got your back”
Jiang Yuelou, Song Rong, and Sun Yongren nodded, just as gun fire suddenly exploded boxes next to them, causing them to quickly take cover before they began firing back
Meanwhile, outside the warehouse, Zhan Yao and Chen Yuzhi watched the warehouse with nervous eyes, as they both had jumped the minute they heard gunfire
“I hope they’re okay”
Zhan Yao hummed
“Me too”
As they stood there, someone came to the window of the warehouse and pointed a gun at them, making Zhan Yao’s eyes widen before he grabbed Chen Yuzhi and tackled him to the ground, just as a bullet ricocheted off the roof of the car
“Stay down”
Zhan Yao then grabbed his gun and peered around the car, just as another bullet hit the ground beside the car, causing him to quickly duck behind the car before he peered around it once more and took aim, firing once
While he wasn’t as good as Bai Yutong, after training with him for a while, his aim improved and he was grateful for the time Bai Yutong took to train him as he watched the shooter fall forward out of the window
Once the shooter was dead, Zhan Yao lowered his gun before he looked at Chen Yuzhi
“Are you alright?”
Chen Yuzhi nodded
“I’m fine”
Zhan Yao nodded
“Good”
Meanwhile, back in the warehouse, Bai Yutong, Jiang Yuelou, Song Rong, Sun Yongren, and the other officers were taking down the dealers, doing their best not to get shot at
After they had taken out the drug dealers, Jiang Yuelou looked around
“Is everyone alright?  Any causalities?”
All of his officers, including Bai Yutong, Song Rong, and Sun Yongren, shook their heads, causing him to nod
“Good.  Seize the drugs and let’s go”
The officers nodded and quickly began to drag boxes and boxes full of drugs out of the warehouse as Jiang Yuelou, Bai Yutong, Song Rong, and Sun Yongren walked out of the warehouse and over to where Zhan Yao and Chen Yuzhi were waiting
“Everything okay out here?”
Zhan Yao huffed
“Someone took a shot at us, but other than that, we’re fine”
Jiang Yuelou’s eyes widened
“What?!”
He then looked at Chen Yuzhi in concern
“Are you hurt?”
Chen Yuzhi smiled and shook his head
“No, thanks to Zhan Yao, I’m fine”
Jiang Yuelou looked over at Zhan Yao with a raised eyebrow, just as Zhan Yao pulled out his gun
“You forget, Chief Jiang, that I’m also a police officer”
Jiang Yuelou huffed softly and nodded
“Right, forgive me”
He then turned towards the warehouse, where the rest of the officers were exiting
“Is that everything?”
The officers turned to look at him
“There’s one more box inside”
Meanwhile, unknown to the officers, the drug dealers had set up a trap of a bomb to go off the minute it reached “zero” and there was only three seconds left on the bomb
Then, all of a suddenly, the warehouse exploded, sending everyone flying in the blast, Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong clinging to each other as they hit the ground, Zhan Yao accidentally landing on the pocket watch that was in his pocket
A little while later, when Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong woke up, they found themselves in hospital beds, Bao Sir and the other S.C.I. members gathered around them
“Dr. Zhan!  You’re awake!”
Zhan Yao let out a soft groan
“What happened?  Where are we?”
Bao Sir huffed
“You’re in the hospital.  You and Bai Yutong have been unconscious for hours”
Zhan Yao frowned
‘Hours?  It’s only been hours?  But…’
His eyes then widened
“The watch!  What happened to the watch?”
Bao Sir sighed
“Unfortunately, it was broken in the crash.  But the professor understands, he knows it wasn’t your fault”
Just then, the door to the room opened and a doctor stepped inside
“Ah, you’re awake, good”
He then looked at Bao Sir and the others
“If you’ll excuse me, I need to do a quick check up on them”
Bao Sir and the others nodded before they left the room, the doctor smiling as they left before he walked over to Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong
“Hello gentlemen, I’m your doctor, Dr.—”
Both Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong looked at him in shock
“Dr. Chen”
The young doctor, Dr. Chen Yuzhi, smiled
“That’s right.  I’m quite amazed you know my name considering this is the first time we’ve spoken since you’ve woken up”
Both Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong glanced at each other before Bai Yutong looked at him
“How’s Chief Jiang?  Is he alright?”
Chen Yuzhi looked at him in shock
“You even know my husband?  Is this really the first time we’ve met?”
Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong laughed weakly
“No, it is…”
Chen Yuzhi hummed
“I see”
He then quickly checked both of them to see how they were doing, and once he deemed them fine, he looked at them and smiled
“Everything looks good.  I’ll be back to check on you in a little while”
He then turned to leave when he paused and turned back to look at them
“And about Jiang Yuelou, yes, he’s fine.  He’ll actually be coming to interview you about the crash later on when you’ve recovered a bit more”
He then continued out of the room, leaving Zhan Yao and Bai Yutong alone in silence before Bai Yutong huffed softly
“So time travel…really does exist”
Zhan Yao hummed
“I guess so”
He then looked at him
“I didn’t expect to see them here”
Bai Yutong shook his head
“Me either.  You think they followed us?”
Zhan Yao shook his head
“I don’t think so…but I don’t know…all I know is that my head hurts”
Bai Yutong huffed
“Mine too.  Let’s go back to sleep…I don’t want to think anymore”
Zhan Yao laughed
“Me too”
They both then shut their eyes and let the drugs that were still in their system pull them back under, both of them trying not to think about how time travel was real…and how it was all thanks to one simple watch

Tumblr media
“I never was ready, so I watch you go Sometimes you just don't know the answer.”
Tumblr media
“Have you ever wondered if I ever lied to you, the whole time we were together?
You never asked this question.
I got this question from the night of the senior’s party. Ichika, Toji’s then girlfriend, had been in the hot seat (on purpose) by Suguru and Utahime. They suspected her of cheating, and through the game of truth and dare aided by a discarded bottle of whiskey, they were able to get a (crying) confession out from Ichika. This was the same question they asked Toji; if he wondered if Ichika had been lying.
I thought of it all the way home. Have you ever had thoughts like these when I was out? When I was unreachable for a few hours, partly distant on some days, or when we had big fights? Were you quick to jump to these kind of thoughts?
You never asked, because showed it to me through the smallest details. That you trusted me with your heart. In fact, you never lost the twinkle in your eyes whenever you looked at me after a small argument. Or the kind smile you’d always wear. The sincerity laced in your voice whenever we’d apologize to each other after a big fight. instead of texting me a “Where are you now?”, you’d always settle with “Come home safe to me, love.”
You probably thought of it once. Or twice. Or maybe a lot more. Because you’re human and you get jealous, too.
But you always turned away, and instead, chose the trust that we both have for each other.
And that’s how we lasted for years.
But right now, Aki, I can’t help but wonder: the whole time we were together, was it all a lie to you?
For you to abandon me like this?
It’s been too long. You have been dragging this lie for too long.
Were you ever planning on come back home to me?
Now I can’t tell the lie and the truth apart,
because all I could picture is your bright smile.
One that turned out to be the biggest lie.”
Love was blurry. It was everything and nothing.
You had only been in love by living through the heroine in your favorite novels. The definition of love for you was too complex, too vague; it’s always changing - like clay! Easy to mold in any shape or form; throw in different colors and you’ll end up with a masterpiece. Some though, they prefer it to be left alone.
You have experienced love through the eyes of another; when Shoko had her first boyfriend in high school, you always tagged along (with Shoko forcing you to be a third wheel in case she gets bored of men) and watched your best friend mold her own definition of love each time she got into new connections.
It’s not as if you didn’t have flings here and there, of course you had them - but none of them made sense. None of them fit. It wasn’t the same with Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy; none of them felt the right fit.
Maybe you were contented with yourself, and that’s why finding love was quite challenging — you weren’t looking for it in the first place.
Love was everything and nothing to you: it seemed as though it had always been present, floating everywhere but nowhere near close to you, and you didn’t seem to mind: love wasn’t rare, and you never felt as though it was the right time to touch it; to mold it into something that would fit you.
“To love is to burn, to be on fire.” Jane Austen, your favorite author, wrote that in her novel Sense and Sensibility. It had been engraved in your mind ever since, because if that were true, then you have never been in love - no one had ever left a burn mark. 
And you don’t mind; you wouldn’t trade solo dates and a 4.0 GPA for someone to kiss at night. You wouldn’t trade the time you’d spent browsing through book sales and writing personal book reviews you’d never published for someone to hold your hand. You were doing fine, if you’re being honest. The absence of a romantic partner barely did anything to your life.
Though sometimes, (even though there’s no way you’d admit it), you longed to feel the burn.
The way Gojo loved burned. It was like reading a well—written book, enveloped in despair and longing and love and wisdom; It burned through the letters of his message and for the first time in your life, you felt it. The fire; dancing on your skin, gifting you the power of being able to feel.
But you were only given a spark, not the flame.
Because this bonfire is not lit for you.
Tumblr media
You find yourself seated in a train without Shoko. You’d gone home with her after a long day of café hopping, paying no mind to the email to pay respect to your best friend. You internally made a pact with yourself to refrain from being fixated on the situation when Shoko is around, specially when she’s hellbent on showing you around the town she’s staying at. You promised to check the email only when you’re alone.
Shoko had already been home an hour ago. She was confused when you remained seated in your seat at first, but quickly figured that given your independent (more like socially awkward nature), you’d want to explore the wonders of Tokyo alone. She reminded you to text every hour so she’d at least know you’re still alive.
You got off the Kasai Rinkai Koen Station and was immediately greeted by the sounds of chatter; it seemed as though everyone was enveloped in their own worlds to notice a young adult looking like a lost puppy in the middle of a train station, mind rushing with thoughts such as what the hell have i done, and what was i thinking?
“Oh, this was taken on the Kasai Rinkai Park when I skipped my battery exam on Biochemistry,” Shoko explained, looking at the old picture she’d sent you months ago. “Why do you ask, though?”
“It just looked pretty.” There’s someone I would like to see.
That’s how you ended up here. In the middle of nowhere. No idea how to get there, or how to go home. You contemplated calling Shoko and confessing how dumb of an idea this was because you were 100% sure she will get there no time to pick you up. But of course, you didn’t want to be questioned, and you were sure that somewhere deep inside Shoko’s mind, she’s already suspicious because of how you’ve been acting.
You looked to the right, and then the left, and then—
“Are you lost?”
A voice coming from behind pulled you out of a possible anxiety attack. Turning around, you were met with kind eyes (with a hint of amusement) staring back at you, and you felt your cheeks getting hotter from embarrassment. I must’ve looked stupid, you thought. And this poor man probably took pity on me.
You cleared your throat as an attempt to gain composure. “Uh — perhaps, yes, but it’s only because I am not from Tokyo.”
The corner of the man’s lips turned upwards in amusement. “You looked like you were going to cry.”
You wanted to die right there and then.
You didn’t really know how to respond; first, you don’t know who he is, second; you couldn’t decipher what he meant by that (was he insulting you?) and third — that was not a good statement to tell someone who does look like she is about to cry.
Looking away, you felt yourself getting small. “Do you know how to get to Kasai Rinkai Park?”
The guy smiled, but this time, it was one that radiated warmth and kindness. He presumed that you really were not from here, and felt bad about making fun of the situation. You really did look like you were going to cry, though. Your nose was already red and eyes teary. Your hand were trembling when he found you standing on the platform looking like a lost kid. 
He nodded, lips still graced with a smile. “Yeah, I know where it is.” He proceeded to tell you the directions, but if you were being blunt, you wanted to admit that you had no idea what taking the next right and the next left meant because you were not familiar at all with Tokyo.
He seemed to notice, though, with the way your eyes blanked out and how you would subconsciously nod at what he says. Somewhere between explaining the directions to you, he asked “do you wanna build a snowman?” to see if you were really listening, only for you to nod as if you understood it.
He thought you looked cute.
“Alright, I can take you there, if that’s fine with ‘ya.” The man stated, adjusting the straps of his bag. You were about to object, but then again, you had 0 knowledge about how to get anywhere and he was probably your only chance of surviving here (Shoko included, but you’re stubborn.)
But what if he’s a bad guy..
As if sensing your doubts, the guy cracked a grin and you couldn’t help but blush more at how adorable his eyes smiled in sync with his lips. If the circumstances were different, maybe you’d actually find the guy a little bit....cute.
This is not the time, you thought. Also, that sounded so creepy.
“I’m Toji.” He spoke, extending his hand for a handshake. Toji. Cute name. 
You took it with an awkward smile. “I’m Y/N.”
Y/N. Cute name. “Come on Y/N, walk with me there. I’ll introduce myself along the way, and maybe give you reasons as to why I cannot be a serial killer, and how you are safe with me.”
Tumblr media
Toji’s a medical student like Shoko.
He was in Edogawa City for his father’s business meeting, but he’s originally from Shibuya. He lives alone in his apartment, has one dog named Venti, a nickname he made up from Ventriculus cordis, his favorite anatomical terminology.
“Why would you name a dog after ventricles?” You asked, stifling a laugh. He laughed along with you, glad that you had finally loosened up. “Wouldn’t you prefer using Brownie or something.”
He shrugged. “The left ventricle is the most powerful part of the heart,” he stated. “If it stops pumping blood out to our entire body, we’re doomed.”
Huh, you thought. So that’s the most powerful part of the heart. You went back to you and Shoko’s playful debate, back in your freshmen year in college, arguing whether it was the brain or the heart that was most important.
You were the face of the debate team when you were in high school, so of course it was you who won.
But right now, you were to thinking about the whole ordeal again: which is the most significant? Or brain, or our hearts? Which should we follow more? Which holds the power? What keeps us alive?
Out of curiosity, you asked Toji the question.
He laughed.
“That’s such a high-school question,” he teased, making you roll your eyes. “But to answer your question, they’re both important. However, medically speaking, the heart can beat without the brain, while the brain can not function without the heart. The brain is dependent on the heart; but the heart continues to work even when the brain’s activity is least. “
“So take good care of it,” he gestured to your heart. “It’s life’s core.”
After a few minutes, he stopped. You followed suit. He sent you a warm smile and nodded off to the direction of the park.
“We’re here.”
You bid your goodbye and sincere thanks to Toji, who sends you a grin and a “Go home safe!”. Of course, he did not forget to give you specific directions (that you’d written on your phone) on how to get home to Shoko’s apartment.
The universe was kind: you were actually five minutes early before the sun began to set. It waited for you to witness the beauty of Tokyo.
You thought back to Toji’s explanation just as the sun welcomed you in its warmth.
It’s the heart that matters the most. Without it, our body would stop working.
You closed your eyes.
“So take good care of it,” he gestured to your heart. “It’s life’s core.”
When you open them, you think of a certain Gojo Satoru.
What you failed to ask though, 
is that if your heart broke into a billion pieces, 
which piece should you follow?

Initial prompt: The Job Words: 5486 Summary: One of Malcolm’s old friends from boarding school arrives at the office. Gil gets a little bit jealous.
Read below or on AO3
Tumblr media
So… here we are! My first smut for Prodigal Son. This one was an accident that was encouraged by the Prodigal Son Trash Discord group.
I was watching the episode with Vijay and got an idea for Gil to be jealous and suddenly I had written 300 words in 15 minutes, and then the rest just kind of happened.
A HUGE special shout out to my friends Ratt and Vee for beating and the squad in the groupchat for being so supportive of me writing this and for screaming about these two horny potato men at 3 am.
On to this fic!
Tumblr media
Gil watches Malcolm's "friend" through the office window. He's still here long after the profiler had disappeared into his husband's office. The locked door stands between them, blocking him from the past waiting on the other side. He's waiting for Malcolm to return, but Gil knows he won't. He huffs as he closes the blinds, shielding them from view. 
Malcolm chuckles from his spot on top of the desk, rolling his shirtsleeves up to his elbows, "Stop staring at him like you want to mount his head over your fireplace."
"Why? I do." Gil glares, striding across the small space to his chair, "What makes this guy special enough to call you baby boy?"
"Because I was friends with him in boarding school. Why are you being so fussy about him?" Malcolm asks, turning on the desk to face where the older man sits. "I mean, he's just a friend..."
"Kid, be real. How many Vijays do you know?"
"Just this one. Why?"
"Because that means that this is the same Vijay that you dated for seven months, experimented with, and, if I remember correctly, 'fucked you so hard you couldn't remember your name?' Is that the same Vijay that walked into my precinct, winked at my husband and called him baby boy? This is the same Vijay as your little school buddy?" His jaw sets halfway through the rant, and Malcolm feels heat pooling in his stomach.
"Fuck..." He whispers, looking at the ground. "Um, yeah... that's him."
Gil raises an eyebrow challengingly and his hands rest on Malcolm's hips, "Last time I checked, I'm the only one allowed to call you baby boy now. Not this overdressed insurance bastard." Malcolm's lashes flutter as his breath quickens, "Sorry, I shouldn't be so primitive." 
Malcolm finally looks him in the eye, and blushes, "Or maybe you could..."
Gil's gaze darkens, and a smile creeps across his expression, "Oh, do you like this Malcolm Bright? No, wait, it's Bright-Arroyo now. Because I had to put my name on what's mine." Bright shivers and nods, "You like when Daddy gets possessive, don't you?" He tightens his grip. "Want me to make sure your little boarding school fling knows that you're mine and that no one else can give it to you how I can?"
Malcolm whimpers and nods, hand trembling. His breathing stutters and Gil pushes his jealousy aside for a moment, concern painting his features. 
"Hey, hey..." Gil murmurs, "It's okay if you are into this. I promise, Mal. And if you are, you're in luck because I'm sitting here thinking up a hundred different ways to make sure that Corner Bench friend of yours knows you're mine."
"Corner Table..." Malcolm murmurs in an attempt to hide his chagrin.
"Irrelevant." Gil growls, "Now, how about you sit on Daddy's lap and I will mark that neck of yours nice and pretty?" The younger man nods, sitting on his lap in the chair, thighs bracketing Gil's left leg.
Malcolm connects their lips sloppily as Gil's hands guide his form to grind down against his slacks.
"And then," Gil continues, nipping at his stubbled jaw, "I’m going to drive you home and take you apart on that bed of yours. I intend to make you scream for me and fuck you hard enough that I can make you forget everything but my name. I’ll make you beg for me until your throat is hoarse, maybe then, I will let you cum. How does that sound, baby boy?"
Malcolm shivers at the title and whimpers, his left hand tangling in Gil's hair. "Please..."
"Already rehearsing for me?" Gil chuckles darkly, "Such a good boy for me, aren't you?" A broken sound slips past Malcolm's lips, and the older man chases it with his tongue. He nips at his lip, pulling it away and letting it fall back into place. "You have to stay nice and quiet for me, okay?"
Malcolm cuts a whimper short, chewing his lip. Gil ducks his head, pressing kisses along his jaw and down the column of his neck. "D-Daddy..." He whines, the sound barely reaching Gil's ear. 
"Good, keep quiet, baby," He says against the skin. As punctuation, Gil delivers a claiming lick to the skin. The younger shivers and presses his hips down into the jut of his pelvis. "You're doing so good for me. Let me finish up here and then we can head home so I can take you apart for real." Malcolm nods, grinding against him while Gil's teeth scrape against the skin connecting his throat to his shoulder. He nips at one point, causing the younger to gasp. "We're taking too long." He whispers, "We need to hurry this up." 
Malcolm nods and speeds up his thrusting. 
Gil bites at the skin, and purrs when he feels the liquid dripping across his lip, "Ooh... Shit. Got some blood outta that one..." The profiler mewls softly as Gil licks at the skin, soothing the angry ring of teeth marks. The metallic taste explodes in his mouth and he growls possessively. 
"D-Don't let it get on my shirt please..." 
"It won't, it's not getting past me. But now, you have a pretty ring of my teeth on your shoulder." Gil growls as Malcolm shivers, begging silently for him to continue. His hips stutter, and he whimpers, "Please?" 
"Please, what?"
"Mark me, Daddy." Malcolm whispers, "Bullpen be damned." With the reminder of their current location, Gil reaches down and grinds the heel of his hand into Malcolm’s clothed cock. "Fuck, please..." He gasps, pushing to reconnect their lips.
Gil kisses back aggressively and gropes Malcolm's length through the black fabric. It's not enough. "Such a good boy, but we have to get out of here if you want me to really own you. So I need you to soften up, or mess up those expensive slacks you insist on wearing." 
The word choice shoots a pang of desire to Malcolm's core as he nods. Nothing in the world sounds more enticing than being pinned under his husband in the loft. His hips jerk down and a punched-out noise rips from his throat. 
"That's it. Take what you need from me, baby boy." He purrs, kissing his jaw. Gil runs his fingers over the skin and revels in the broken gasp he receives in reply. "You're doing so good, are you close?" 
Malcolm nods mutely, accelerating his movements. "Fuck, Gil..."
"Look at you, Malcolm. Desperate just from me biting your neck?" Malcolm gasps and whines a curse, "Fuck, baby, can you cum for me? Cum for daddy, baby."
Malcolm shudders, pressing against his hand, "Fuck, Gil, can you talk to me?"
"Talk to you? What do you me– Oh... You want me to tell you everything I'm going to do to you later, don't you?" Gil's hand gropes rougher and teases the wet spot in Malcolm’s slacks. He's met with a gasp, and a smile tugs at his lip as he presses a kiss to Malcolm's face. 
The younger man shakes his head against Gil's shoulder, rolling his hips rhythmically. "N-no..."
"No? How about I tell you about how you belong to me?" In lieu of a reply, Malcolm whines. "Ah, so that's what you want. Do you want to be reminded that every last piece of you is mine? I can do that." He murmurs promises into his brown hair, and the words go straight to his core. "However, I have to save some for you later tonight. So instead, I will leave you with this: You're mine, Malcolm Bright. Every last cell in your body is mine. Your noises, your breaths, all of it. And this..." Gil's grip tightens around the bulge, "Is mine. This is my pathetic little cock, and I can make it cum when I please. Isn't that right, baby boy?"
"Da-ddy... 'm close..." 
"I know you are, baby, cum for me. Let go." With that final demand, Malcolm's form crumbles against his chest. He whispers a curse, and the damp spot in his boxers grows. "That's it... Good boy. So good for me, Malcolm, so good for daddy." He connects their lips and holds him tightly, the afterglow slowly fading. 
---
A few minutes later, he nuzzles against Malcolm's jaw, "Alright, sweetheart?" 
"Mhmn... Can we go home now?"
"I thought you'd never ask," Gil purrs, helping Malcolm stand, "I'm going to let JT and Dani know you're okay. They were worried you were having a flashback episode when you ran off to hide in here."
"How long have we been gone?"
"Only an hour or so, but I told them you needed a bit of time to get your bearings and to send your little friend home."
"Hey, Gil? Thank you." He murmurs, hugging his husband tightly. 
"Of course, baby boy. Let's head home, I still need to remind you who you belong to."
---
The warm air fills the space in the Le Mans and offers a welcome purr. It's thick, ablaze with lust, and Malcolm can't stop squirming. 
Gil's hands are white-knuckle on the wheel, and he doesn't dare to look anywhere but forward. "Stop squirming, baby." He growls, voice low, "Or I will give you something to squirm about." Malcolm shivers, and a broken mewl cuts through the air. "But knowing you, you'd like that, wouldn't you?"
The hornier Malcolm gets, the more he rambles, less and less of it making sense, "Mhmn, daddy." He whimpers, cock beginning to fill out again. He desperately clenches his fists in his slacks to resist the urge to touch himself.
Gil chuckles, hearing in real-time as the man's brain goes offline, "God, you're already horny again? I knew you were desperate for me, but not like this..." His voice breaks into a purr, hands wringing at 10 and 2. 
Malcolm raises an eyebrow, "If I didn't know better... I'd think you're just as desperate. I mean, all your tells are there… Besides, I know you’re desperate since you didn’t get to orgasm at the precinct.” 
"Don't profile me, not right now..." He groans, resisting the urge to palm himself.
"Here, daddy, why don't I help you with that..." Malcolm murmurs.
"What're you talking abou– Oh fuck!" Gil yelps as Malcolm's hand slips around his length, friction blocked by the layers of fabric. "Malcolm! Fuck!" His voice cracks as his footfalls heavily on the gas. Luckily, for once, New York has decided to keep the road in front of him clear as he corrects his speed and levels his breathing. "Jesus, kid, that's how you get us killed!" Malcolm smirks and goes to remove his hand, but Gil's right hand wraps around his wrist. "Did I tell you to stop?"
"No, but you said it'd cause an accident." Malcolm mocks, his face feigning innocence, "And I'd hate to make you get in trouble with the law..."
Gil scoffs, "You're just asking for me to fuck you into the mattress aren't you?" 
"Begging for it, daddy," he purrs as they roll to a stop at a red light. His hand returns to its place against Gil's crotch, palming the hardon waiting for him beneath the fabric. 
Gil moans and swallows. He climbs out of the car and opens the door for the younger man, "Coming?"
"Hopefully."
"Good God, kid, I need you to get a grip or we aren't going to make it inside." Malcolm laughs, digging his keys from his jacket to unlock the door. 
Malcolm's lips quirk up into a smirk, as he jingles them, "Or, you take me right here, and then I call Vijay to clean me up. Though to be honest, he’d probably like to add to the mess."
He knows it's a risk, but if he's been reading the afternoon correctly...
As if on cue, Gil's gaze darkens. He's looking at Bright like he wants to ravish him. He pierces the younger man with brown eyes, fire fueling the burn in Malcolm's stomach. Gil's hands grab his jaw, and he glowers, "You want to say that again, baby?" Malcolm shakes his head, eyes wide, "That's what I fucking thought." His voice lowers to a growl as the younger man falls back against the side of the Le Mans. "Now, I want you upstairs in the next five minutes, or I will edge you until you fucking cry. Frankly, I should regardless, you've been a brat all day." 
Malcolm whimpers, and Gil laughs darkly, "Good boy. Now, get upstairs." 
Without waiting, he rushes into the building, leaving the other man behind. The graffitied door slams and he chases up the stairs behind him, meeting him at the door as he unlocks it. Before he can unlock the door, he presses Malcolm into the wall in a deep, claiming kiss. "G-Gil..." He whimpers, wrapping his legs around the older man's hips. Gil circles his arms around Malcolm, carrying him to the door to unlock it.
He opens the door as Sunshine chirps a hello. "Hi, sweetheart," Gil greets kindly, "We'll be with you in just a moment. I need to take care of your daddy first."
Malcolm dopily smiles, licking off of Gil's neck. He mumbles, "I thought you were daddy. Or at least, that's what I've been shouting..."
"God, you are such a brat." He replies, pushing him back on the bed, and kissing him sloppily. Gil nips, ripping a whimper from Malcolm's chest, "What do you want me to do?"
"Fuck me, daddy. Remind me who owns me." Malcolm mewls, arching his back dramatically, performatively. "I wanna feel you for days."
With a whispered curse, Gil removes his sweater and t-shirt, unclasping his belt and pulling it from his slacks. Malcolm reaches up to remove his suit coat, but Gil stops him. "Let me." He nods, dropping his hands to the grey sheets as Gil removes the jacket and unknots his tie. "Hey, baby? Are you married to this tie?"
"Nuh-uh."
"Good. Hands above your head. I wanna tie you up." The younger man nods and reaches up, hands side by side. Gil knots the silky tie around his hands, restricting his movements. Malcolm wiggles, testing the knot and whines when he realizes. "Is this okay?"
"It's perfect."Malcolm’s mind flicks to his time chained up, but the forgiving softness of the tie assures him that this is Gil and not Watkins, "Can we please... I need you to... fuck..."
"I know. Is your stomach burning yet? I know how horny you can get, and I think I want you to be that desperate before I fuck you. I want you to be begging for it, whining and screaming for me. Then.. Then we’ll see about getting you to forget all that noise in your head. Deal?" 
Malcolm nods, licking into Gil's mouth desperately, "Please..."
"What's funnier, Malcolm, is that you're already halfway there." Gil nips at his neck, licking over the ring of teeth from earlier. The younger whines, voice cracking as he cants his hips upward. "See? You already are responding to my voice like a good little slut." 
It's not often that he uses the title, but the moment it slips past his lips, Malcolm releases a punched-out noise. Gil tilts his head, pressing their clothed lower halves together. 
"Decisions, decisions... Do I dare try and wring one orgasm out of you first, or should I put you right on the edge? Maybe I could make you cum, and then after you're all sensitive, I can use that to my advantage and make you desperate. What do you think, baby boy?" 
Malcolm whimpers, desperately writhing against the sheets, "Please... Any of it, whatever you're willing to give me! Fuck, please! Make me yours, mark me, take me! Fuck, Gil!"
"You're right. You are mine, so why shouldn't I pick what I want to do with you?" Gil leans down, licking possessively over the younger man's throat, trailing down his sternum. "That's it, whimper for me..." His goatee scratches gently against the skin on Malcolm's pec, wracking shivers through his body.
"Please..." Malcolm whispers, hands wriggling in their confinement. 
As if waiting for an invitation, Gil's teeth sink into the skin over Malcolm's left nipple, hand splaying over the skin under his right ribs. He ghosts his nails over the taut skin, feeling it rise and fall with Malcolm's breaths. Gil suckles, flicking his tongue over the nub, wringing out moan after moan from his husband. "You're doing so good."
Malcolm whimpers, pressing his hips up against the crotch of his slacks. The zipper grinds against the fabric of his boxers creating an uncomfortable sensation, but the wet spot growing by his hip makes the entire situation torturous. Gil's torso stops him from moving, and he groans in frustration. ‘Gil must be misinterpreting’, Malcolm thinks, as he feels him shift to the other nipple, giving it the same bruising treatment. 
Gil pulls off for a brief moment, breaths hot against his saliva-soaked skin. His voice travelling just above a growl, "You have two options here, Bright. I want you to either profile the situation and figure out what I'm planning on doing to you, or I want you to talk."
Malcolm's breathing stutters and Gil fights to grin when he feels it, "T-talk to you? Fuck, what do you want me to say?"
He replies with a head tilt and an eyebrow raise; lips kissing and licking down the profiler's stomach.
"Um... fuck... I don't know what you want me to sa-aaay..." He whines, words cracking with desperation, as Gil sucks mark after mark into the expanse of his stomach. "The profile today was a tricky o-one to come... I mean... take apart. Fuck!! Ow!"
He bites down again, leaving another ring of teeth against the skin over his hip.
"Not about work." Gil amends, running his thumb over the spot he'd bit, "I want you to talk while I suck on your pretty cock, baby." He reaches down, unbuttoning Malcolm's slacks, pulling them down his legs and off with his shoes, socks, and belt, "That way I can hear in real-time when exactly you fall apart and get desperate for me." When he finally gets Malcolm's dick free, he licks and sucks the tip into his mouth.
Malcolm moans watching Gil swallow down along his length, stuttering out, "O-okay... Fuck... um... Daddy! Fuck!" He gasps, jerking his hips to no avail, feeling Gil's grasp on his hip, digging on the right side of pleasure-pain. "I... Um... Sunshine did something f-fuck-funny today? S-she... Daddy! She... um... She she she..."
Gil pops off, staring up at him from his place on the floor, crouching between his thighs, "She what? If you're not going to profile the situation, at least continue your story. My love, I'm on the edge of my seat. Tell me exactly what she did."
"She... She was pl-fuck... playing on the counter and... and um... di-discovered the little bell ball you got her a... ah... fuck please... ah... a few weeks ago rolls. And she..." Malcolm mewls, head falling back as Gil's lips reach the base of his dick. 
Gil pulls off, dragging his teeth lightly over the length before speaking, "Aww, are you saying she tipped it over? Was she playing on the edge?" His voice has gotten rougher due to the stress on his throat, "Come on, baby, tell me how it ends!"
At that moment, it clicks for Malcolm what's happening. "Y-you're going to edge me?!" He yelps, head falling back against the sheets, eyes falling close as he draws in gulps of air. 
Gil laughs, "Ah, he finally gets it. I knew that being desperate made your reflexes slow down, but not this much. I was even making it easy on you! Tell me when you're close." Malcolm nods, hips jerking against the sensations of his husband's tongue tracing against the base of his cock down past his perineum to... "You have got to be fucking kidding me, kid." Gil sighs, touching his fingers to the end of the plug. "You want to explain what this is to me?"
"It was meant to be a surprise."
"For me or your corner desk boy?" He chuckles at the broken whine ripped from Malcolm's chest when he turns it, feeling the lube added fairly recently aiding in its movement.
"C-corner table!" He sobs, "Fuck please keep doing that I'm so fucking close..." As he says it, Gil pulls away, ceasing all contact. 
"Well, lose it. You know what happens when you cum without permission. If you cum now, that's all you're getting tonight. I will still be reminding you who you belong to and you won't get to cum again. I will make you desperate for it, but you won't get it. Because, baby, you're mine." 
Malcolm whimpers, "Please..." His length twitches desperately, as he claws his way back from the edge. His stomach burns, and his chest rises and falls with rough breaths. "I wanna be good for you, daddy, please let me. I'll be so good for you." He's rambling, he's sure of it, but if the look on Gil's face proves anything, it's working wonders. "I just wanna please you. This is for you, all of me. I just--" Malcolm’s cock drools a steady stream of precum on his stomach, and Gil wishes he could lick it up. 
"Shhhh... Calm down, baby. I need you to calm down or you’re going to accidentally cum." Gil purrs, kissing him softly. "You're doing good, but I wanna switch gears."
"Wha--?"
"I still want to edge you another time or two, but I think I want to go about it differently. How would you feel about us trying out that pretty new bullet toy you bought the other day? The ring one."
"Yes, please!" Malcolm nods, eyes refusing to open, "It's in the steamer trunk in a black bag. I haven't opened it yet. I didn't wanna use it without you." 
"Hmmm... Good boy." He leans down, pressing a kiss to Malcolm's ribs before stepping to the end of the bed and retrieving the bag and box. He rips into it, pulling the pastel blue silicone vibrator from the container and slides his fingers into the ring at the base, putting the notches in between his fingers. "Here we are." He turns it on and the noise fills the space between them. "Feeling far enough from the edge?"
"Mhmn." 
"Good." He passes the toy over Malcolm's nipples, reveling in the arch of his back against it. "You like that?" Not lingering too long in one spot, he trails the toy downwards, over his length slowly. "How about this?" The toy shoots vibrations through the tip of his cock, and Malcolm screams. "Aw, you sound so pretty, baby."
Malcolm murmurs, head rising to watch Gil's movements, "I--I'm close again, Gil..."
"You're what?" 
"Close!" He shouts, body thrashing under the toy's pressure. 
"Already? That's a shame, I'm having so much fun with this toy of yours..." He presses it down again, watching the tears fall from the younger's blue eyes. "You're doing so good... Hold it for me. Hold on." 
"I-- I can't..." Malcolm whines, pushing his hips downward, "Please I can't, daddy, turn it off!"
"Color?"  Gil asks, removing the toy from his hand and waiting for a reply.
"Green," Malcolm replies, begrudgingly. "I'm green."
"Are you just saying that?"
"No, ‘m green. This... fuck... this is the hottest scene we've done..." 
"Is that so?" Gil growls, giving himself a sympathetic squeeze through his slacks. He's going to have to fuck him soon, or else he's going to explode. 
"I need you inside of me, daddy." Bright whimpers, finally catching the older man's eye.
"Yeah... yeah, fuck. I need that too, baby." Gil's voice comes out ragged as he unbuttons his slacks, pulling them off finally. He stands at the side of the bed in his black boxers, and he swears he can see the way Malcolm's mouth waters at the outline of his cock. He palms himself over the fabric, giving the younger man a show. His hands fall on both sides of Bright's head, as he connects their lips filthily, "God, Malcolm, I wanted to take you in the office earlier. I wanted everyone there to know you're mine. To know I own you. Sure, they all do from your ring, but no... I want them to know I own you like this. I wanted to make sure your little friend knew you were mine. That no one else can give it to you like I can."
"Yours." Malcolm echoes, nuzzling Gil's chin, "I need you, Gil.."
Gil nods, reaching into the side table blindly, hand wrapping around the bottle of lube. With it in his right hand, his left drifts down to pull the toy from Malcolm's ass. When his fingers tap the end of the toy, a jolt passes through the man's spine. It turns to a shiver when he turns it, pulling it out slowly leaving him clenching around nothing. 
"Please..." He whimpers, "Please, please, please..."
"That's it, beg for me." Gil murmurs, "Good boy." He coats his fingers in lube, dropping it as he whispers praise into the air. He slips them into the younger's waiting hole, drinking in the gasps and mewls they're met with. He curls and scissors them, bumping along his husband's walls, searching for--
Bright cries out, cock twitching, "Oh fuck!" 
"There it is." He murmurs, pressing the fingers insistently against his prostate. "Come on, give me a pretty noise and I'll add a third."
In reply, Malcolm moans, back arching desperately. Gil rewards him with a third finger as he kisses him gently. He scissors them, making space for himself. "I'm good... please let it burn a little..." the profiler murmurs, not breaking eye contact as he sucks a lip into his mouth. 
With that, Gil pulls his fingers out and chuckles when he whines, "I have to take them out if you want me to fuck you, baby."
"I do, fuck, please put it in." 
Gil nods, running a hand over his dick, coating it in lube before he presses the tip inside. Malcolm begs for more, even when the older man inches into him. "I can't move until you're ready, sweetheart. I don't want you to get hurt." 
Malcolm raises an eyebrow at the words, "Much." He replies with a smirk.
The older man jerks his hips and groans. "Fuck, you feel amazing. Always so perfect for me, baby boy. Like you were made for my cock aren't you?" 
"For you. Only you, daddy." He whimpers, "Fuck, please... Fucking take me. Claim me. Make yours." 
Gil nods, fucking his hips into the younger, their moans mixing in the space between their lips, desperation painting every gasp, whimper, and curse. 
"T-talk to me, Gil, I'm not going to last much longer I'm so fucking sensitive." 
He nods, breaths coming out labored, "Fuck..." He rolls his hips, hitting Malcolm's spot dead-on each time, "You're mine." He starts, words falling past his lips like poetry, "You're so good for me, baby. You feel like you were made just for my cock. Your mouth and your perfect little ass. No one else gives it to you like this do they? Know why? Because they know you're mine. That you’re my baby boy."
"Daddy!" Malcolm echoes, rutting his hips to meet Gil thrust for thrust. He whimpers when Gil's hands come to meet his, as their fingers intertwine. "Fuck... Please, no one else fucks me like you do, give it to me! Just like you always have, make me yours, Sir. Give it to me. Please, mark me!" He whines, voice labored and wrecked from his moans. Gil nods, licking and sucking a mark into his throat, just under his jaw, hips finding a rhythm that's punctuated by perfect gasps. 
The mark comes up purple, as he licks it, nipping at the younger's jaw. "You're doing so good. Are you close?"
He nods, hooking his ankles behind Gil's hips, encouraging him to speed up his thrusts. He whines like it's a prayer, begging desperately, "Fuck, daddy, please... Please, please please, please... Let me cum for you. I'll be so good for you! I'm sorry for teasing you earlier, please let me cum. I wanna be good for you, please... 'M so close..."
"Fuck, cum for me, sweetheart. Show me how good daddy makes you feel. Come on, do it! Come on, be a good boy for me, Bright." He encourages, wrapping his hand around Malcolm's cock as he speeds up his thrusts. 
  He feels it before he hears it. The way Malcolm tightens around him, mewling and whimpering, a steady stream of 'Gil' and 'daddy' slipping from his mouth. Streaks of white hit his chest and Gil's hand as he arches, and Gil swears there's nothing more gorgeous in the world. 
He moves to pull out, but Malcolm stops him, "Keep going, please? I want you to cum in me, daddy. Please?" His blue eyes sparkle in the dying light from the outside, as he fights to catch his breath. 
"Fucking hell, kid." Gil groans, "Can you tell me who you belong to?"
"I belong to you, Daddy. I'm your baby boy." He whimpers from the overstimulation, clenching and unclenching around Gil's length moving inside of him. "Mark me, so no one else can have me, please... No one else can give it to me how you can. Please give it to me, daddy."
"Fuck! Baby!" Gil shouts, his orgasm overtaking him as he falls against the bed, breaths ghosting over Malcolm's throat as he fucks into him. "So so so good, for me."
Malcolm nuzzles against the older man as he pulls out; the feeling of cum drooling from his puffy hole causing him to shiver. "Thank you." He murmurs, kissing him again gently. 
"Of course, baby." Gil nods, smiling down at his husband, pulling the younger man on top of him. 
"I love you," He whispers, pressing a kiss to Gil's chest when they settle properly on the bed. 
"I love you, too. You did so good for me. Such a good boy for me, Malcolm. Thank you for trusting me and for being so responsive. You're so good." He whispers, fingers combing through Bright's hair, the other hand running up and down his arm. "Was that okay?"
"It was so good, Gil, thank you. Definitely in one of my top three scenes we've done. I needed that."
"I needed it too, sweetheart. I didn't realize I needed to be reminded I belong to you as much as you do me."
"Mhm, you're my husband. Especially when you're being all hot and possessive. Then you're extra my husband." They chuckle, connecting their lips in a gentle kiss. 
"That doesn't even make sense, you dork." Gil laughs, "We need to shower though before I order us dinner, alright?"
"In a minute..." Malcolm laughs, rolling onto his front, "I don't want to move, I feel like jelly."
"Now, you lazy baby." Gil prods, "I am prepared to carry you in there." Malcolm rolls over and raises his arms, "You're actually going to make me--" He rolls his eyes and picks up the other man, carrying him to the bathroom to turn on the shower, "You're so lucky I love you." His irritation is shadowed by the chuckle he lets slip but hides it with a kiss.
"I am."
----
The next day, the two walk into the precinct, separating at the entrance for Gil to collect coffees from the breakroom. 
"Good morning!" Malcolm cheerfully greets, all but skipping into the conference room. 
"Listen, I know you suddenly decided to be a morning person, but it's 8 am and I--" Dani starts, but trails off when she sees it. 
"Holy shit, Bright, did you get attacked by a vampire? That's a hell of a mark you've got there!" JT exclaims, brow furrowing when he notices the marks on Malcolm's throat. 
His hand rises to touch the ring of teeth peering just over the edge of the suit collar, "Um..." 
The two detectives' faces pale when they realize where it came from. Dani's jaw drops in disbelief, "I knew you guys were married, but I didn't realize Gil was that ki-"
"What are you guys talking about?" Gil interrupts, stepping into the room and handing Malcolm a mug of sugary coffee. 
"Nothing!" Malcolm replies quickly, blushing deeply.
"Nothing but Malcolm's possessive-ass, possibly vampiric husband." JT murmurs, handing Dani the case file to fill them in on the case. 
The three chuckle when Gil's face pinkens, enjoying the brief moment of flustering before continuing with the case discussion. 
Malcolm catches Gil's eye, touching his hand to the bite mark and blushes at the wink he receives in reply. 
He briefly wishes Vijay were still at the precinct, so he can finally know the truth: he's happily claimed.

Facts You Probably Didn't Know About Louis XIV Part 2
His favorite breed of horse was the Lusitano.
He was the type of become jealous when other men would talk with his mistresses, or when his mistresses would talk to other men. If he saw other men talking with his mistresses, he’d tell them to back off and/or figure out a solution to make them back off. If his mistress were to talk to other men, he’d become irritated, enraged, and would often begin to lose interest.
He believed that the murder of a spouse’s lover was justified. In one instance, in 1665, a French murderer, Jean Serreau de Saint Aubin (1621-1705), who lived in Nova Scotia, killed his wife’s lover by bludgeoning him to death after he found him sleeping with her. Serreau was arrested, and sent to the mainland for trial, to where his case was reviewed by Louis himself. Louis pardoned him without hesitation.
If there was one thing that you could say he HATED, it was vagabonds. Wandering and begging on the streets was considered a serious crime with major penalties.
He would sometimes wander the streets of Paris and pretend to be a peasant in order to see what his subjects were up to. He’d do this by changing the color of his moustache, wearing a cloak over his head and face, and wore rags.
Sole meunière was one of his favorite dishes, especially on Lent. This is a classic French dish consisting of sole, that is pan-fried and served with butter sauce, parsley and lemon.
He was the type who was tough on the outside, soft on the inside. While we have often seen the hard and rough side of him, especially in the way he ran his government, he was actually really polite, good-natured, told jokes, and liked to entertain people.
He considered on declaring war with the Pope. The war would’ve been declared if the Pope weren’t to agree with his demands in response to the Corsican Guard Affair. Due to having a small army at his disposal, the Pope reluctantly agreed to Louis’ demands by signing the Treaty of Pisa and no war ever happened.
Speaking of war, he called the War of Devolution a "voyage", meaning "journey" in French, as he believed that he was going on a journey to take back his own lands rather than invading anything.
He had the most trusted people know the dirtiest of secrets. Colbert; for example, helped to prepare and attended the birth of Louise de la Valliere’s children. Secondly, one of the responsibilities of Bontemps was to usher Louis’ minor mistresses and flings through secret passageways to see him. And thirdly, Louis’ close friend Saint-Aignan lent his bed to Louis and Louise, allowing them to have sex without others hearing them.
Madame de Montespan herself said that he closely resembled his father, Louis XIII of France.
“Quatorze” was a pet name that Louise de la Valliere used for him during their intimate moments, considering that “Sire” and “Vostre Majesté” were far too formal in the bedroom. I do not know if Montespan used this, but I assume there were other pet names. Quatorze means fourteen in French.

Ghiaccio HCs let’s fucking gooooo
Alright gang it’s that time again. I’m stuck in the Swamp of Sadness called “writer’s block” where headcanons are the only thing I can manage. And y’all seem to appreciate my Ghiaccioposting so let’s do this CW: Mentions of violence, abuse, drug use and sex, but nothing explicit.
BACKSTORY
First of all, why yes I DO have a hc for his legal name~ But if I told you he would kill me.
He is on the autism spectrum but undiagnosed; his difficulty communicating with/relating to others and his frustration with figurative language often get mislabeled as him being a dick. He’s learned to lean into that label.
When he was very young, he was taken away from his abusive family for his own protection and put into foster care.
He was constantly being moved from home to home because of his difficult nature and violent outbursts. His anger issues were never addressed, only pushed onto the next caretaker.
He grew up always feeling like a burden, like no one wanted him, and so he developed a fierce drive to be the best at everything. As a wise woman once said, “I feel like I’m the worst so I always act like I’m the best!”
Being shuffled around also instilled in him a lone-wolf sensibility, a distrust for getting close to anyone.
He was an extremely good student, at least in terms of grades. He studied multiple languages and had a special interest in the sciences.
He was also an incredibly dedicated athlete,  participating in track & field, hockey, and soccer (football).
He kept getting ejected from matches for his anger issues, even when dealing with his own team mates. Some schools refused to play against them unless he was removed from the lineup.
He then sought outside sources to get his adrenaline fix and wound up becoming a speed skater. He was exceptionally talented and became obsessed with being number one. He was actually on track to compete for his country in the Olympic games…
However… a particularly violent outburst had him disqualified and had him permanently barred from competitive skating.
This was the inciting event that awakened his Stand abilities.
He withdrew from school, and never went to university.
Has a series of short-lived and distant “relationships.” tends toward hookups and flings.
He is a drug-user, indiscriminately; whatever his teammates put in front of him.
LA SQUADRA ESECUZIONI
He’s one of, if not the youngest member of La Squadra.
He doesn’t need to be “liked” by the team, but wants to be respected and feared.
His opinions on…
Sorbet & Gelato: Finds their PDA annoying so he tends to only engage with them for work. Probably is also jealous of what they have.
Formaggio: He appreciates being able to drink beer and watch sports together and not have to talk.
Illuso: Sees him as a necessary part of the team, but they both tend to keep to themselves, so they’re not especially close.
Prosciutto: Respects him quite a lot, aspires to be more like him in many ways. He’s slightly more open with him than the others, because he knows Prosciutto won’t try to “fix” him.
Pesci: Sees him as a “little brother,” wants to mold him into a fearsome assassin. Surprisingly, he is not as critical with him as Prosciutto is. He is the team mate Ghiaccio is least likely to lose his temper with, and most likely to let down his guard down with.
Melone: Fascinated by him, highly respects him as a team mate. Prefers to work with him because they weirdly understand each other; they absolutely share a folie à deux. Early in their professional partnership he was annoyed by Melone���s incessant and aggressive sexual innuendo, but quickly figured out that this could be resolved by adrenaline-fueled, post-mission hookups. (Spoiler alert: these men are kinky.) Afterwards, it’s all business. Eventually Ghiaccio begins to experience what scientists refer to as “catching feelings,” but he doesn’t have the emotional intelligence to know what to do with this.
Risotto: Has a deep respect for him of course, but also a low-key resentment that he feels towards any person of authority. He tends to push back against orders and treat him more as an “equal” than the others do, but it’s mostly for show. He’d happily follow Ris into any battle. MUSIC RECS Admittedly, I haven’t gotten into this as deeply as I’d like to, but I have couple of suggestions that I am absolutely rabid about.
“This is Love,” Air Traffic Controller Obv I see this through a Meloghia lens, but the romantic angle could be x anyone (or no one.) Oh, I was hit as a kid, I was good, but then I quit. Everyone that tried to fix me Knows that I can't change a bit. I've got no shame, got no pride, Only skeletons to hide. And if you try to talk to someone, Well then someone has to die. Once you chase me down the hole, Yeah, once you think you're in control, You'll believe that we are partners And you'll feel comfortable. Oh, then the darkness rolls in And you'll forget who I have been. But you'll love, love, love it. This is love.
Literally all of “M A N I A,” Fall Out Boy Don’t give me that look, I will fight you on this I stg. A couple of highlights--
“Young and Menace” We've gone way too fast for way too long. And we were never supposed to make it half this far. And I’ve lived so much life I think that God is gonna have to kill me twice. Kill me twice like my name was Nikki Sixx. I woke up in my shoes again, but somewhere you exist. Woke up on the wrong side of reality. And there's a madness that's just coursing right through me. And as far as the time, Not sure I'm there yet, but I'm certain I've arrived. Oops I did it again. I forgot what I was losing my mind about. I only wrote this down to make you press rewind And send a message: I was young and a menace. I'm just here flying off the deep end. I'm just here to become the best yet. I'm just here for the psych assessment. I’m just here for the fall.
“Champion” I'm calling you from the future To let you know we've made a mistake. And there's a fog from the past that's giving me Such a headache... And I'm back with a madness. I'm a champion (Of the people who don't believe in champions.) I got nothing but dreams inside. I got nothing but dreams. And I'm just young enough to still believe, But young enough not to know what to believe in. If I can live through this, if I can live through this... If I can live through this, I can do anything.

Dating Ross Geller Would Include
Tumblr media
You’d meet through the university.
And you’d think he was super cute for an absolute nerd.
He’d ask you out first.
Pretty soon you’re dating seriously because he’s not a fling kind of guy.
Dates would include museums, galleries and cute picnics in the park.
He’s not the best in bed but he knows what he’s doing. 
And he’s good at communicating which means you’re never left high and dry.
You’d love the way he geeks out over stuff even if it wasn’t your cup of tea.
‘And this could mean we could find a completely different species that we never knew existed! I’m boring you aren’t I?’ ‘No closing my eyes helps me focus.’
He’s super sweet and thoughtful.
But mostly in private. 
He’s not big on PDA. 
He’d introduce you to his friends soon into the relationship.
You’d love them all. 
And you’d love teasing him with them. 
You and Monica would really get on.
You’d be wary about Rachel. 
But he’d reassure you that was in the past.
But it would still cause some fights.
Especially because he gets jealous of you and other men. 
‘So it’s okay for you to get jealous but not me?!’ 
You’d be serious fast [its ross].
Because Carol had seen so many women come and go she was wary about you.
But eventually, you’d meet Ben. 
And you’d love him like one of your own. 
You’d tease him about his divorces but you make it clear you were serious about him.
But he couldn’t help himself and it would slip out.
But you’d say no when he proposed the first time. 
And the second. 
And third.
The compromise was moving in together. 
And his asking became sort of a running joke. 
But you’d assure him you weren’t going anywhere.
‘Okay yeah.’ ‘What?’ ‘I’ll marry you.’ ‘But I didn’t ask?’ ‘I know but it’s a Tuesday and I figured you’d probably say it at some point.’ 
Tumblr media
Monica would be your wedding planner. 
Which meant you didn’t have to lift a finger. 
Judy would love you. 
And you apologise to Monica because you can see the way she fawns over you upsets her. 
You and Monica would become very close.
And the longer you and Ross were together the more you and rachel would become friends.
Eventually, you'd move out of the city. 
Probably nearby Monica and Chandler.
And Ross would definitely want more kids. 
He’d be a good dad.
But definitely a little pushy. 
You’d have to remind him that it’s what your kids wanted not hat he wanted. 
But you knew it was because he wanted your kids to do well. 
But it didn't matter.
Because your kids were never short of Aunts and Uncles to talk to if they needed to.
And that went the same for you two. Because they weren't just friends. They’re family.

🎲 (ghost & billy)
Kiss Roulette - Accepting - @designedparadigm
Tumblr media
19. A kiss underwater
It's meant to be a short lived fling, something dark and dangerous to pass the time while he sorted out all the details of his new life. Yet months later he and Ghost were still coming together to ruin one another. He couldn't say he hated it.. But it was strange having something steady to lean on.
It was a tangled mess they made of each other but they were.. In too deep now. Billy knew his schedule, knew to block out his own so that not only did they match but that there would be no surprise visitors during those days. They were both too demanding, too possessive and jealous, of each other to survive if someone else encroached on their already limited time together.
When the other man shows up unannounced on his doorstep? Billy was ready for him. The door swings open and there's little warning when he drags him inside. Does the door swing shut? Does it lock them away from the world? He doesn’t know as he drags him down the hall, pulling him into the bathroom to make quick work of his uniform before shoving and pushing him under the hot spray of water. Ghost is laughing and the younger man huffs.
He hates he smells like desert and other men. Like _him_. He’d kill Soap one day. Rather Riley allowed him to or not.
Soon they’re deep under the heat of water and finally he could gather him close and kiss him hard. All things aside.. He had missed him something fierce.
