Guys, I'm going to be honest. Maybe I'm still in shock because it's been like 2 minutes since I finished the DFF finale but
lmao that was so cheesy (affectionately)!
Come to think of it, with 50% of us screaming for blood and 50% of us (aka me) crying because why can't we all just get along, this is actually the perfect way to end things: make all of it become true and untrue at the same time.
The ending is so absurd and over the top and so predictable in being unpredictable that I actually feel well entertained. Just pure chaos. I don't know how else they could have let it end in only 30 minutes - except to not let it end.
Also, did I detect some Silent Hill 2 soundtrack vibes in those piano tunes when New was hallucinating? Because I appreciated that.
On a more serious note, the nightmare revelations were truly messed up and I appreciate that too. Psychological horror my beloved.
I guess in the end it's not about revenge or forgiveness or remorse at all but more about guilt and grief and punishment (and I guess that too is a lot like Silent Hill 2). A group of boys bully their classmate and in the process destroy the lives of a whole family. New gets his revenge on them, and more innocents die, and on and on it goes because no one ever truly deals with their guilt (and/or grief). Even in their drug-induced psychosis/happy ending Phee and Jin (whose nightmare is it anyway?) only wish they could help Tee... and then they do nothing. The whole thing literally becomes this beginning-less, never-ending miasma - a monster bearing Non's face (and now I'm just stuck on my Silent Hill 2 parallels and I should probably stop and listen to some Akira Yamaoka to get it out of my system).
*but also that Jin potentially hallucinated two whole years of uni is probably the worst punishment of all.

“Trick-or-treat!!”
“Gasp—Oh my goodness!” 
“We came to celebrate Halloween! Also, Megumi forgot his toothbrush here again.”
Opening your door to children at the sunset of Halloween day isn’t out of the ordinary or anything special. However, it’s always a pleasant surprise when it’s two kids you hold dear to your heart. You greet them with a hug, two siblings you know too well to say you’re acquainted with. If anything, you’re practically family. 
The raven-haired brother, referred to as Megumi, speaks up. “It’s not my fault! Dad was rushing me last time.”
“Because you had to bring your stuffed animals last time, holding us back for your baseball practice.” Tsumiki, the older sister, snapped back. The two argue amongst themselves in front of you as you try to mediate. It’s no avail until another voice comes to the fray.
“All right, chill out, you two.” The voice belonged to the person approaching the porch stairs, your eyesight capturing the familiar figure walking up with two duffle bags. The one standing tall before you was the father of the children, Toji Fushiguro. Who’s also known as your one and only former husband. “Get inside and finish y’r homework, or else we’re goin’ back home.” 
The siblings stop bickering and head inside, taking off their shoes at the foyer and walking upstairs. Now that they’re gone, you turn to the man with the jet-black hair, his viridian orbs focused on you. The weather was chilly, so the man wore his usual dark denim jacket over his plain black sweatshirt, matching his jeans. “You look good, big guy. What’s in the bags?”
He greets you with a curled lip, and the scar on the side of his lip lifts. “Picked them up from their after-school sports, so it’s their sports gear and costumes for tonight. Mind helpin’ me here?” 
“Hmmm,” you merge your facial expressions to that of faux pondering, turning your back to Toji. “Nah, can’t. Got dinner to finish making.”
“Hmph, should’ve known.” He makes his way through between you and the front door. “Wouldn’t wanna break your pretty nails carrying heavy shit, huh, princess?” 
You glare at him using the nickname, hating his patronizing gaze. “From what I remembered, you would never let me carry the heavy stuff because you thought I was too fragile and easy to break. So how about that, Mr. Knight in Shining Armor?”
“Really? I don’t remember sayin’ all that before. You must’ve put me in a spell.” 
“Probably, I’ve been told I’m quite cute~.”
“Mmm, nah, more like an old hag of a witch.” Toji barks a laugh at your offended reaction, and he immediately ducks and heads for the stairs when you throw a sandal at him.
“At the very least, say I’m a cute witch, fucker.” You say the final word under your breath, grabbing the sandal you threw and heading back to the kitchen.
To say you and Toji were acquainted with one another would be the biggest understatement of the century. The two of you met a decade ago, fell madly in love, and married within a year of the relationship. When you tied the knot, Tsumiki had to have been two years old, and Megumi just turned one year old. You two had been together for four years after that, and you could confidently say those were one of [if not THE] best years of your life. You often second-guessed yourself being in a relationship with someone who had children, fearing that they wouldn’t like you or ignore you.
However, those worries were blown right away as the days went by. Every time you spent time with the children brought you three closer than ever; it was to the point that they saw you as their mother. How sweet! And there’s no denying that Toji loved you. The man would break someone’s nose for you  — yes, it happened before, and it wasn’t pretty — for you were his sweet little thing that kept him going.  
Well, if it was so great, why the divorce? Let’s just say you weren’t Toji’s first love. That title would have to be awarded to the Megumi’s mother. Even in her unfortunate passing, you can tell that Toji loved that woman like no other. It didn’t make you jealous or anything, seeing the man you love still mourn for a dead woman. Hell, you’d probably do the same if you were him. But, you can’t lie; it felt like you were cast over a “shadow” when it came to her influence. It was damn near suffocating to bear, especially in those four years of marriage. So, for your sake and his aching heart, you pulled him aside and suggested a divorce. And Toji didn’t fight you on the proposition, signing the papers and setting you free from the thick air.
Although things ended between you two, that didn’t mean things stopped being what they were. If anything, it was as if nothing happened at all. Even if you still don’t live under the same roof, you still make time to hang with the Fushiguros, whether invited to some occasion or exchange phone calls or texts to check up on them. Even now, five years after your separation, it warms your heart knowing that you get to interact with the people you care about. 
There are moments you find yourself missing living under the same roof with all three of them and living alone can be pretty lonely. But all in all, as long as they’re comfortable and trust you enough to be around, there’s no need to change things up again. Like right now — the four of you sit at the dinner table eating before the kids go off trick-or-treating.
“Are you going to trick-or-treat with us, Y/n?” The brown-haired child sitting next to you asks while finishing up her dinner. 
“Sorry, not this time, gotta be at a Zoom meeting for my job in a few minutes. But I do have someone else to take my place. Gojo will be here at around—Why are you two making that face?” You stop mid-sentence to notice Megumi and Toji at the other side of the table, displaying disgusted facial expressions at the mention of the white-haired other’s name.
“Why him?” They said in unison.
“Why not??” You question their irritation.
“He’s so annoying…” Again, in unison. Proof enough that they’re father and son.
You sigh as you get up to take your plate to the sink. “Oh, come on, you two, it’s not like he’ll be with you guys the entire night. He has a party at a friend’s he’s going to later.” 
“Isn’t he too old to trick-or-treat?” Tsumiki questions, noting that Gojo is way past his undergraduate years. 
“He is, but whatever gets that prick any free sweets,” Toji answers his daughter before getting up to put his dish in the sink. 
You exit the kitchen, head into the living room, and sit on the couch. The laptop you had placed there was ready to open and unlock, and you clicked on applications and windows to look through before your meeting started in the next three to two minutes. He should be here about—
DING-DONG!!
Now.
Right on cue, you motion for Toji to grab the front door, and he follows your command. “Kids, Gojo’s here!” You shout out to the two kids who still sit at the table. “When you’re done eating, you can go upstairs and put your costumes on. But whoever finishes last has to do the dishes.” You can hear commotion from the table as the brunette rushes to put her dish in the sink and dash for the stairs. Megumi groans to himself; you giggle when you hear him mutter an “Aww man…”
You pull out your headphones to connect to your laptop, put them in their respective ears, and prepare yourself for the meeting. Ignoring the faint passive-aggressive tones of your ex-husband when greeting Gojo at the door…
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
Your eyes flutter open, noticing the lighting change around the living room. The orange sunlight no longer decorated the space, substituted with the gradual darkness that overtakes you. The only source of light you can figure out is the flashing from the television screen.
Aside from the TV, there are no other signs of life. There aren’t any signs of Tsumiki or Megumi around playing or causing a raucous. It could only mean the two are still trick-or-treating with Gojo. 
One blink, two blinks. I must’ve fallen asleep after the meeting… You hum while sinking to the couch, burying your face into the pillow. 
But…since when did your pillow act like it was breathing with a heartbeat? And…I smelt that cologne before…How?
“Ya awake now?”
You raise your head, realizing you are not lying on your couch. Technically, you were; however, you were lying on something else on the furniture with you – more like someone. 
It’s then you realize that you were lying on Toji during your entire slumber, him leaning on the end of the couch, one leg spread to make room for you to sleep on him while you sit on the other. And you can guess that you had your head on his chest, snuggling up to his warm figure. He looks at you with his green eyes now darkened by the room, yet you can see their glow from the television light. And that small smile he gives you, the scar on the right side of his lip lifted upward. The familiar butterflies in your stomach flutter like before. Like old times sake…That must be embarrassing, huh?
You frantically try to get off of him, “Sorry about that, I thought—“
“No, no,” Toji places a stern hand on your back, keeping you from moving further. “You were comfortable.” 
You stare at him for a few seconds until your face contours to a look, and a smile starts to creep up while you situate yourself back to your original position, pressing your face back on his chest to listen to the beats of his heart again. “I recall having this couch all to myself not too long ago, so where’d you come from?”
“Well, I wanted to watch some sports highlights, but I figured you’d kick my ass if I pulled you off and had you sleep on the floor instead.” With the click of your tongue, he chortles. You bet your ass I would. “So, I decided to have ya sleep on me while I watch TV.”
“What’s wrong with the other side of the couch? It’s quite vacant and enough for a big guy like you.” 
“True,” his hand rubs circles on your back, an old habit he did when he used to have you like this. “But then I’d be lonely.” 
You titter. “That’s big for someone who said he thrives on being alone.”
“I thrive being alone when I’m working.” You’re glad he can’t see your eyes roll; he’d probably grab you by the cheeks like a child. “Besides, why would I wanna be alone when I have you for myself.”
And there it is, your cheeks begin to warm up. Or was it because you’re so close to him that his heat is transferring to you? That’s probably it, yeah. Let’s change the subject…”How long was I out for? I remember the kids left around 7:30-ish.”
“Mmm, it’s going to eleven right now.”
Three and a half hours? Damn. “It’s past their bedtime.”
Toji scoffs. The abrupt motion of his chest rising is satisfying in a way that makes you even more comfortable. “You still think they’re gonna sleep with all that sweet shit they got?” He snickers some more as you shake your head.
“They know better. When you guys get home, be sure to put their candy bags on the top shelf of the closet for the morning.” 
“Still traumatized from that one time?” 
“Uhhh, yes??” The memory flashes to you for a quick moment, but the dread from before still haunts you. Megumi was six years old and Tsumiki seven, returning home from trick-or-treating and immediately tasting their labor from that night. However, what you didn’t expect was for them both to eat almost half their bags. Let’s just say, thanks to their sugar rushes, they didn’t drop dead until the hour hand touched two of the morning. “Unless it’s the weekend, never again.”
The way the older man chuckles is so therapeutic — it nearly makes you want to fall asleep again. “You weren’t the one chasin' Megumi all over the place tryin' to get him to sleep. Little squirt gets his speed from me.”
“Awww, poor you~” You can sense the glare as you respond in a condescending, sing-song tune. “You and him are always butting heads. Like father, like son.”
“Tch, hate that sayin’ so fuckin’ much.”
“Why? ‘Because it’s true?”
“Shut up.” The hand he used to rest his head comes down to pinch your nose. You wriggle out of his hold with giggles, but he happily keeps you grounded to him with his stronghold and a leg wrapped around to prevent yours from moving. “He only listens to you. Such a sweet lil’ baby to you, huh? Puttin’ my own son against me.”
More giggles prompt out of tiny guilt, and you bring up a hand to rub on his chest. “He’s such a bright boy now. Growing up so big and fast.”
“Miki, too. That girl is way too smart fr' me to catch up. And she’s becoming so kind and strong, crazy to think she made me play teacups when she could barely go down the stairs by herself.” Toji hums, the vibrations felt on the pads of your fingers. “Think she gets that from you.” 
You shook your head. “They’re your babies. They do amazing things because they have a big guy like you to catch them if they ever fall.”
“Hmm, fair…But let’s not pretend I’m the best dad in the world. Fuck, never in my life did I think I’d be a dad, especially with two kids. I didn’t know shit back then — still! I still don’t know shit.” You don’t say anything, just listening to him voice his thoughts to you. Because he knows you’d listen – you always do. “If you weren’t there for them, I don’t think they’d be shining like this. Y’re definitely the thing that brought us up together. They look up to you so much. Ya did so well with them.”
Nodding aimlessly, his black sweatshirt grazing on your cheek. “Thank you. Same to you. Didn’t do so bad yourself, big guy.”
“Mmm.”
Nothing is said between you two after that. The only thing that makes noise is the voices coming from the television. The volume lowered, an initiative you could guess from Toji wanting you to get some rest. The silence was too awkward that it might torture some, but it was fine where it was. There was no need to change it, especially when you were comfortable in each other’s embrace.
That is, until Toji asks, “Do you miss it?” The rubs on your back go slower, his fingertips drawing a ticklish sensation.
“Of course I do. All the time.” You answer honestly, turning your head to rest your chin on him. Your eyes glimpse directly at his, giving him a tiny grin. “Why ask? I know the kids miss me being around; what about you? Miss me nagging and putting you to work all the time?”
He sneers at your comment. “Every day.”
It was such a simple answer, yet it had the power to wipe that smirk right off your face. Your eyes locked in his sight, and your heart tuning to an irregular rhythm. Oh, come on, Y/n, get a grip! “Ahem—Toji, I hope you know that I never stopped missing everything we had — I never will. Those years that we shared were probably the best I’ve had. We had happy moments, others sad, of course. But, God, do I miss it all. I miss it so much. I miss having you guys here. Miki and Gumi and—“
“Me?” Good Lord, if this man doesn’t stop looking at you with those goddamn eyes of his, such captivating orbs that say more than he lets on. Your breath hitches, and so does the hand on your back. “Hmm? Ya miss me, baby?”
Oh, for fuck’s sake. Why’d you have to call me that? And it gets worse when he places his free hand on your cheek, his thumb brushing your skin while the forefinger teases the lobe and tragus of your ear. Goddammnit…
“...Yes,” your voice was down a whisper, which could easily be mistaken with the television. But you know Toji heard you, loud and clear. “Especially you, Toji.” You said it. The words that he wanted to hear from you. They felt so forbidden to say, yet it was the truth. You avert your gaze away from him. But you knew that wouldn’t work, not right now. Toji taps your cheek with his thumb, and your eyes sheepishly return to his.
He doesn’t say anything, and that makes your heart beat at an unbearable rate. It’s all you can hear when you stare into his deep emerald eyes, the sound of it ringing your eardrums as if you could puke. Your throat running dry, so you gulp to ease the uncomfortable bob. If something could just happen to end this anxious torture, that would be great. 
And then your prayers get answered: something does happen. Toji slowly brings his face closer to yours — your body goes rigid, and you instantly face away before the inevitable happens. No, I didn’t mean that!
“Aht aht, don’t do that, baby.” His hand slithers from your cheek to your chin, forcing you to face straight at him. “Lemme see you.”
“Toji, wait,” your voice travels out in a shaky breath. “We shouldn’t be doing this. We can’t cross this line anymore.”
He listens to your pleas, but his body does otherwise. Placing a gentle kiss on your forehead while the hand on your back snakes downward. “Why not?” His gruff voice dialed down to a whisper.
“Because—Mmmm…” Toji interrupts you by licking the helix of your ear. Oh, you slick bastard. “We’re supposed to be done…” 
“That’s not stoppin’ me from takin’ care of my sweet thing.” Jesus Christ, you almost melted from the way he whispered that to your ear. He’s pulling out all the same old tricks, and it gets more hellish by the second as you try not to give in. “So, y're gonna let me take care of you like I always do, right, mama?”
Both his hands now rest on your ass, groping it while your hips sway as if they have a mind of their own. The leg between yours comes up slightly, making you ride on it. The heat on your cheeks has already blossomed to your ears, making it hard to think straight. Gripping his sweatshirt, your hips ride his thigh to ease the throbbing sensation that grows with every motion. Good God, you shouldn’t be doing this. You know you shouldn’t be doing this. However, it’s been so long that you felt wanted like this — wanted by him. It’s all the same – his voice, his hands, his words, his body, and the names he calls – yet here you are turning into putty. 
“Haaahh, Mmmfff…Toji, please,” Toji withdraws his face from your shoulder, leaving him to examine your expression. You must look so dumb right now, with your hooded eyes and shivering lips. But, at this point, do you even care? “Please…Treat me right.”
One moment, you see his gaze narrow with a devious glint. Next, you’re taken aback when Toji slams his lips on yours, kissing and sucking your bottom lip until you give him access. With a moan, you open your mouth for him and sink deeper into the kiss. Your hands come around his neck, keeping him focused on you and you alone. Not that he would have it any other way.
His strong hands continue to knead your asscheeks while you hump and grind on his thigh. Nibbling on your lip, you whimper helplessly for him. It strokes his ego, knowing he’s making you like this, the fucking bastard. He takes in your tiny cries happily, shoving his tongue to play with yours. You give in to him, almost losing your balance riding his thigh, yet Toji’s lips never leave yours.
You break the kiss to get an imperative breath, panting loudly and sweetly for him as Toji kisses and licks your ear. The sounds make your lower region twitch. “Hnnmm, fuck…That’s my girl. So fuckin’ good fr’ me always, Y/n…” You can feel him slide a hand up to the hem of your leggings, forcing it inside for his thick fingers to brush up on the bare flesh of your butt. You gasp sharply. Him squeezing your butt has you biting down on his sweatshirt. “—Hahhh, Oh God, Toji,” With every squeeze, he inches closer to your panty-covered chasm, where you know he’d find a damp spot. Please touch me. Please, please, plea—
CLACK-CLINK!!
The two of you are frozen stiff when you hear the sound of the door opening and closing, the foyer lights turned on. “Alright~, we got you guys home. See ya later!” That was Gojo’s voice, indicating everyone was finally back from trick-or-treating. This means that Tsumiki and Megumi are about to see you on top of their father, his hand in your leggings and smacking lips with yours. Your eyes shoot wide with horror — immediately remove yourself from Toji and stand up from the couch to pull your bottoms up. You barely had the chance to peek at Toji because the kids already run to the living room to find you two.
“Y/n, Y/n, look!” The brunette was the first to greet you with her adorable pink Barbie cowgirl costume. She and her brother, dressed as Sasuke Uchiha, cheerfully showcased their pillowcases full of candy. “Look at all this candy we got!”
“Wooow, you guys really went on a haul,” you can only hope they can’t see you sweating bullets through your fake reaction. “Wh–Where’s Gojo?” 
“He dropped us off here a few seconds ago and left for the party,” The raven-haired boy answered while scanning his pillowcase.
You only nod along until you frantically wipe your mouth, realizing the tiny trail of spit from the corner of your mouth. “Umm—Ahem, well then, I’m glad you two got all that candy. Now, let’s hurry up and get you guys home so you can get ready for school tomorrow!” 
But the children didn’t move an inch. Actually, they looked like they were going to tell you something. You lift a brow. Oh no, they’re going to look at each other. They looked at each other and then glanced back at you. Oh, God, no. “Uhhh, Y/n, we were thinking.” Big sister Tsumiki is always the one who asks the following question. “Can we stay over?”
You inhale a massive breath, yet you do your best not to exhale a heavy sigh. “Kids, you promised to keep the overnight stays to three at max per month. This will be the fifth!” 
“Yeah, but it’s dark out. Plus, it’s way past our bedtime.” The younger chimes in with a tiny pout. “We’ll be asleep by the time Dad gets us home.”
And here comes Tsumiki with the tag-team response to add on. “And that means he’ll have to make continuous trips back and forth from the car. Picking me and Megumi up, getting our bookbags, the bags full of candy, the whole thing! We already packed up our PJs just in case.” 
You stood there staring at the two in astonishment. There’s no way they thoroughly planned this out. There’s just no way… And to make it worse, they were making valid arguments. You open your mouth to say something, but the two give the best puppy eyes they can. The wave of guilt hits like a train, internally cringing. You turn to Toji, who still sits on the couch, and the motherfucker only gives you a shrug. Wow, what a helpful father he is.
You groan into your hands, shaking your head while looking at the kids who wait for your verdict. “…Alright, you can stay as long as you PROMISE to put those candy bags in my bedroom closet. Deal?” The happy smiles and aggressive head shakes should answer your question. “Good, now go ahead and take your showers before you head for bed.” They rushed to the stairs by the time you finished that sentence, so enthusiastic about staying the night at your house, and you can’t help but smile hearing their footsteps run up the stairs. 
With that being said, you turn to the older man again. Your brows are trenched down, but your smile is still present. “So, you legit just sat there and let those two tag-team me like that? In my own house?”
Another shrug with a dumb smirk on his handsome face. “Told you: too smart fr’ me to catch up.” You shake your head before exiting to get the kids and guest rooms ready, leaving him with the television. 
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
The midnight hour has finally danced its way into the darkness of the night. Halloween is finally over, and the month of October is no more. The pitter-patter sound of the rain cleanses the neighborhood of its merits and festivities that partook hours ago, ready for a new phase of the year to take over.
After having the guest room ready with sheets and sleepwear for Toji and kissing the kids goodnight, you rinse your stress off with a nice shower and put on your pajamas to get ready for bed. After you turn the lights off, you drape the comforter over your figure as your body sinks with the cozy sheets and pillowcase. Your eyes close while focusing on the curtains of your window, the only light piercing inside being the lampposts by the street. 
…Well, at least that’s what’s supposed to happen. But that’s not the case because you’re not the only one lying comfortably on your mattress. Instead, Toji is here with you, in your room, on your bed, his chest to your back, and his hand roaming inside your oversized shirt. Your lips are now connected with his, sharing your erotic moans with his enticing groans, and you get a little louder as his fingers cup and play with your breast.
“Mmphh…Ahhhh, I thought I told you you’re sleeping in the guest room—Nmmff!” He tweezes your nipple with his forefinger and thumb roughly.  
“And I thought you’d be smart enough to know that wasn’t gonna happen.” Toji kisses the crook of your neck, drawing near your ear for him to whisper. “Besides, look at you. Still sleepin’ with no underwear on?”
“Hmph, only when I have a man around the house.” That answer got you another rough tweak on your nip and a purposeful gnaw to your ear. You knew he’d react like that, never liking the mention of another man leaving your mouth – especially during an intimate time like this.
“That so? What man you know that can handle all this?” Toji then moves from his side to be between your legs, pulling up your shirt to fully expose your chest. And your breathe hitches while his free hand travels down your abdomen to your bottoms.
“Ahhhh, no one. Just you...” You look at him with half-lidded eyes, taking in his reaction to what you said. The salacious grin on his face becoming broader should entail that he greatly loved that retort.
He brings his face to your other unattended nipple, “Good answer, princess.” The nub of your breast enters his mouth, and the wet warmth of his tongue greets it with lapped motions and grazes from his teeth. Despite that, it doesn’t distract you from the fact your bottoms are pulled down with ease and are thrown to the bedroom floor, leaving your cunt out for him, your erotic fluids seeping and glistening from the outside lights. 
Toji plays with your folds until he can stuff his pointer finger into your chasm, the insertion resulting in your body’s jolt. It’s been a long while since you had his thick digit inside you, playing and scraping the inner walls to evoke whimpers. God, it felt so good, this satisfying feeling returning to awaken your body to his touch. He interacts with your body as if he’s the only person who knows how to get you going – and it’s the truth. No one can put you in a blissful haze quicker than this man. And you’d prefer to keep it that way. 
The addition of his middle finger into your leaky entrance startles you, the thick digit making its way in with such vigor that he uses both fingers to scrape the velvety texture of your walls. Your eyes are now screwed shut at the growing commotion between your thighs, and the heat within your body flourishing all around gets to your head. “—Khmm, Oh fuuck, Toji. Please, don’t stop.” 
With a soft ‘pop’ noise from his lips, Toji replies to your demands. “I’m sorry, what’s my name again?” You giggle with trenched brows. Of course, how could I forget?
“Nmmph, D-Daddy, pleaseee, I’m so clo—Ahhhann!!” He puts his thumb to your clit, grinding down on it unexpectedly. “I wanna cum, pleaseee…”
“Hmmm, good girl,” he teased, laying down kisses, nibbling on the skin of your stomach and inner thighs until he arrives at your leaking slit. Your body jerks up from the bed when you feel the cold, wet muscle slowly lick on your clitoris before ravaging your folds. The sounds of his mouth on your cunt are so lewd to the ear, slurping noises from his lips with the lapping motions of his tongue claiming your come are too much for you. And when he uses his hand to swipe and pinch your clit? Oh, it’s a wrap. Your release comes out without control, biting down on your bottom lip to make sure your cries don’t leave this space for the kids to hear. Their room is on the other side down the hall; tonight isn’t the night for too many risks.
When your trembling body calms down and subsides, Toji withdraws his face from between your thighs. Your essence paints his mouth, and he wipes his chin clean while licking the remnants that coat his scarred lips. “Hmph, missed tastin’ you like that.” You open your eyes when your high finally evades you, watching your ex-husband pull down his sweats. His erection springs out and hits his stomach, your mind going rampant with thoughts as you ogle at his freed limb. Shit, it’s been so long. Will that shit even fit me again?
“Don’t think it’ll fit, baby?” Damn him, he loves teasing you. Toji then discards his black wife-beater, at long last revealing his well-built, brawny physique that has you drooling for him. He uses his hands to maneuver your legs—your knees pushed to your chest as your legs propped up on his shoulders. A position you’re all too familiar with. Your eyes don’t leave Toji’s cock as he aligns his cock to your slick-coated folds. “Take some breaths fr’ me, sweetie. Can’t take care of you when you’re all tense.”
You take up on his advice and begin taking deep breaths, reminding yourself to maintain the steady pattern as he pushes the tip of his dick between the lips of your cunt. Every inhale is where he nudges into the hole of your inner cavern, and every exhale gives you time to breathe out the pain that comes in for a split second. This carries on until the cockhead wedges itself perfectly into your vagina, along with the inches of his girth that stretches until the base kisses your lips, the tip of him kissing your cervix. Tears swell up in your eyes, taking more deep breaths to prepare yourself for what’s about to come. 
“Oooh fuuuck…Heh, yeah, that’s my baby right there. Fittin’ so perfect fr’ me, mama…” He puts his weight on you, keeping your figure unmoving under his bow. 
“Nmmmf, Daddyyy,” you’re forced to take in all of him, and drool trails down your lips with no hope of taking care of it. “…I’m so full, you’re too much…”
“I know, sweetie, I know.” He wipes your spit after kissing your forehead. How gentle compared to what you’re about to go through. “Gonna move now.” His thrusts start slow for the two of you to adjust to each other; the feeling of his length’s veins coming in and out of your chasm is so euphoric, and the kisses to your cervix want your body to writhe and squirm. But you’re bent into this position for a reason: forced to submit to him no matter what. So you do just that.
Yet your horny haze gets more potent once he picks up the pace, rutting into you with increased speed. Your slit, still sensitive from earlier, gets overstimulated with the constant grazes on your gummy walls and jabs to your tender cervix. It takes everything in your power not to come so early.
“—Hahhhh, Nmmph. Oh, shit, shit, shit…” Toji groans above you, the thrusts of his pelvis increase to an irregular rhythm, grinding deep into your cunt to the point of uncontrollable babbles escaping your lips. His bullying on your insides results in you gripping his length hard, causing the older man to hiss and moan at your contractions. “—Ohhhfuuuckk!! Jesus Christ, baby. Y’re gonna make me go crazy.” 
As if that wasn’t already happening now that he pistons his cock into your wetness, your brain turning into mush from the onslaught of ruts to your puffy wet chasm. Tears stream down your face, and more drool follows down with more precise hits to your delicate canal. The pounding in your head makes it hard to think of anything else, the squelching noises and paps of Toji’s balls hitting your cunt making it worse. 
“D-Daddyyy, I’m—Ohoooo!! Oh, Jesus, ohhhshit!” You can’t formulate a proper sentence, too engulfed with the electrifying sensations coursing through your body. 
“Damn, you feel too fucking good—Hnngh!!” Toji places his forehead on yours, resting his entire weight on you while his hips have a mind of their own. “‘Bout to make me knock you up…”
Oh, good Lord. The mere thought of having a child is the last thing that should be on your mind. But in a time like this, who in their right mind would be thinking straight? “Nnnfff! Oh God, pleaseee, fill me up, Daddyy!” Green eyes narrow with trenched brows. “—Pleasepleasepleaseee!! I want you to fill me up so bad, I want it, I want—Hyaaaaa!!” 
How can he deny your desperate, teary pleas when you’re urging him on like this? “Heh, you’re so fuckin’ sexy, mama.” Toji captures your lips with his, your mewls taken by him as you sink further into your pleasurable thrill.
Sporadic thrusts of his pelvis produce more raunchy noises in the joining of your sexes, his heavy balls smacking on your cunt as he drives the base of his cock straight into you. Your slit is now a puffy mess, come and slick form a soapy mess that Toji now harbors a milky ring around his girth. A few rushed, sloppy thrusts heighten your high once more, and then Toji presses his pelvis down to the hilt on one final, harsh thrust, unloading his seed into your aching folds. And your climax follows in a few seconds, the walls of your cunt fluttering on his pulsating dick as your essence soaks him. Your muffled shrieks are received by him, quivering under him until the aftershocks wash through your body. 
Once you two breathe at a steady tempo and the nerves of your sweaty bodies fall still, the kiss is broken with heavy pants and a string of spit that links you two together. Toji buries his face between your neck and shoulder, licking and kissing your skin as you’re allowed time to experience your clarity.
“Hmmm…You know I’m not done yet, princess.” Toji mumbles to your ear before stationing your legs off his shoulders for them to rest.
“Yeah, I know, big guy.” You tease him with a breathless laugh, kissing him on the temple. “Always wanting more…”
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
“…So, you’re telling me you had your ex-husband spend the night? Not just the kids?”
“Yup, that’s what happened.” 
This morning was different from your usual routine – well, you can’t say it’s different if you have done it before, huh? After five years of divorce, you thought you’d be so used to waking up and getting ready for work without worrying about others. However, this morning proves otherwise.
It felt natural walking into the kids’ room and lightly shaking them awake, telling them to get ready while you whip up something quick for them to eat as Toji showers (using your bathroom, by the way). Watching the kids run down the stairs and eat breakfast puts a smile on your face, reminiscing about the good old days when they were younger and teenier. It sometimes feels surreal doing the same thing for them now that they’re getting older and taller. But seeing them bicker and interact with each other in your presence never fails to warm your heart.
When Toji’s finished freshening up and loading his kids’ stuff in his truck, it’s time to bid them farewell for their departure for school. You give them final touch-ups on their hair and outfits, reminding them to be safe and not get into trouble (especially Megumi, now that the boy’s been getting into fights). And before they rush to the car, you hug them and give each a kiss on the cheek. Here is where the warm feeling inside your heart begins to deteriorate, not wanting to let them go. Yet, for their sake – and education – you release them and hope for the best.
The last to leave was Toji, who came from the kitchen to the front door with a paper plate wrapped in foil in one hand. His name is written boldly by a black Sharpie. “This fr' me?” 
“No, it’s for Shiu Kong, for dealing with you all the time.” You stick your tongue out at Toji as he glares at you, not even moving out of the way while he exits through the door. “You better eat that when you get to work, you have a terrible habit of skipping lunch.” 
“Whatever ya say, mom.” He pesters you with the title, knowing you’re technically not a mother anymore. Yet it only makes you smile knowing he notices your maternal side. 
“Don’t forget to text me when Tsumiki’s soccer game is next week.” You watch him go down the porch stairs. 
“Will do.”He whistles. 
“And Toji?”
The man stops walking to turn to you, his forest green eyes fixed on you so quickly that you almost forget what you want to say. Or what you wanted to do. You place your fingers on your lips and blow a kiss with an outward gesture. It was an old habit you did whenever he left, something you can’t seem to get out of practice with. It’s embroidered in your mind at this point. 
And when he catches the kiss with his free hand and places it on his chest, it makes your heart skip a beat. Toji grins, “I’ll be damned if that was fr' Shiu, too.”
You snicker with a shaken head. “Drive safe, Toji.” Closing the front door, you stand there for a while. Your smile doesn’t falter; it gets bigger as you replay the moment instead. Thinking about him, hearing him, seeing him, it all drives you crazy. And that’s a good thing…right?
“I don’t know, sounds like you still kinda care about the guy.” 
“Of course I do,” So here you are, sitting in your living room enjoying the rays of the sunset decorating the space, in a video call with your best friends, Utahime and Mei Mei. You reply to the former’s comment. “Just because I don’t have the ring on my finger doesn’t mean I shouldn’t care about him. I mean, he’s the father of two lovely children.”
“Shoot, you’re better than me, then.” The dark-haired woman admits. “But you’re kinda proving my point, Y/n. Even when you don’t have the ring on, you two act like the same old couple, and it’s definitely not just for the kids’ sake. Let’s be real here.” 
You try to interject, but the pale-blue-haired other, Mei Mei, intervenes, “I agree. It’s one thing if you let the children stay over, but he also wanted to spend the night. Sure, he could’ve been tired from driving all day and such. However, if you’re still seeing a man for the last five years – while legally unbound – and he says he wants to spend the night under your roof, which is rare, that should ring some bells at least.”
“I know, it did…” you nod along with what your friend is saying, throwing your head back with a heavy sigh. “But it’s not like he’s never spent the night here before, nor is he banished from stepping inside.” 
“Oh? Then why is this time different from the others?”
Utahime jumps in after Mei Mei’s chirp. “Yeah, you’re telling us about all these nostalgic lovey-dovey feelings as if you’re falling in love with him all over again. What, did you two have sex or something?” 
An open mouth, yet no words come out, leaving you in a predicament. You could’ve just lied or swerved the subject to something else. But you didn’t. And the two women on the screen lift their brows with hooded eyes, a look meaning a thousand words. You couldn’t even explain yourself either because a sudden knock on your door captured the attention of all three of you. 
You stand up and walk towards the door, your friends still on call on the phone at hand. Opening the door, you’re almost stunned to see in front of you. Tsumiki and Megumi with nervous smiles, and their father at the car collecting the same duffles bags from last night. You’re kidding.
“Hey, kids.” The two of them gulped from not calling them by their names. You bring up the phone to face the screen to them. “Say hello to Auntie Mei Mei and Utahime.” The women on the line smile and wave at the children, who sheepishly wave back.
“Hi, aunties.” Megumi greets them, and then his eyes drift back to you. “So, Y/n—“
“What did you forget this time?” Straight to the point, no room for excuses.
“It was Miki this time! She forgot her soccer cleats.” The older sibling gawks at her younger brother for calling her out.
“Tsumiki, I know you have cleats at home.”
“I do, but these are special! You bought them for my birthday, and I’ve been wearing them to every game ever since! So, I was scared when I couldn’t find them at home.” The brunette was quick to defend her stand. “Also, Dad doesn’t feel like driving up here and then back. So…can we…”
You close your eyes and bring the phone to your face to shield your vexation. Twice in a row, the sixth time this month. You can hear the giggles of your friends from the other side of the phone, adding more fuel to the fire. You don’t look up until you hear heavy footsteps on the porch, seeing Toji holding both duffle bags with a hand and shoulder. He stares at you as you stare at him, a silent conversation on how to handle this situation. And when he shrugs with lifted brows, you realize it’s no use and release the long-awaited sigh.
“….If I see one more thing being left behind here, you guys can’t come back till December, understand?” It wasn’t anything serious, but enough for the kids to know you weren’t joking. They nod their heads in unison while you roll your eyes. “Okay, get in here.” They rushed inside with gleeful laughs, the shuffling of their backpacks following along with them. Your eyes then drift to Toji as he walks up to you. “Did you forget something here, too?”
“Yeah,” you lift a brow when he drops Megumi’s bag to the floor. Before you can register his hand on your chin, you squeak when he brings his lips to yours. It lasted for seconds, but the kiss was sweet and tender, sucking on your lip before letting go with a playful bite. “Meant to give you that when you woke up. Thanks fr' the food, mama.” 
Toji picks the bag up and walks inside your home to put the bags in the rooms, leaving you standing on the porch with an astounded expression. You couldn’t appropriately calibrate your thoughts until you heard faint laughs from the phone. Then, you realize your best friends witnessed the entire scene that transpired. 
Utahime, with the slyest leer, was the first to say something. “Oh yeah, he laid that pipe on you good, without a doubt.”
“Mhmm,” Mei Mei agrees with a chuckle. “And I'm guessing he’s gonna do it again tonight. Isn’t that right, Y/n?”
You end the video call with a heated face. “Sh-Shut your damn mouths!!” Again, you groan into your hands before returning inside. Thank God I still have those birth control pills...

hi!! same anon here you dont have to take this as a request bc i just wanted to get this out of my chest yandere or at least obssesive averatio where both overstim the hell out of reader (lowkey mindbreak if you're comfy about that??) after reader rejects their advances NOT OUT OF HATE or anything but bc their insecurities got the best of them and either thought the two were just messing w them or they have abandonment issues (i do not have the second one whatever do you mean i am not projecting do not percieve me) no offense to these two but they look like the ppl to mess w your heart n leave you to rot
mb some predator/prey (they both hunt you down after you avoid them both and as ratio wisely said "what do you do with a cornered prey? hunt it to death" AUGHAHSGA) aphrodisiacs, drugging, etc. anyways after that you best bet you'll be too dumb to ever think of something as stupid as that, and sure, yes ratio hates idiots but well..... you will be the only exception given how cute you look all fucked out and broken on their bed with their cocks deep inside you <3
SKLDJALSDJAL HELP i feel awfully embarrassed w writing this lmao scuse me while i bleach my head.
i am very sorry this took so long </3 i wrote this as a fic at first but i lost motivation so now it’s just in the form of brain rot :(
Tumblr media
oh no :( poor reader with insecurities from your past relationships thinking every man out there is a liar, especially the two that gave their hearts to you :( running away from them is a smart move because we don’t trust men in this household!
but you forget how annoying they can be when it comes to getting what they want, and they want you (´▽`) so don’t be surprised when you find yourself feeling scared out of your mind walking home alone and feeling like you’re being watched! or when you find certain luxury items randomly appearing in your room! or the slightest hint of their cologne when you wake up every morning! because you asked for this by running away 😵‍💫
this was supposed to be holiday for you — coming to penacony, but the headache and blurry room before you has you panicking! you best know that no one is coming to save you when you’re running through the reverie hotel like a lost bunny when you receive a letter saying they’ll have you tonight! and if you think you had any chance of escape, you’re so wrong 😖
oh, and don’t let them know that you’re afraid, it only spurs them on! hunting you down through the corridors of the hotel is so adrenaline inducing for them <3 running shouldn’t be so hard though, so why do you feel as if your legs are going to give out any second? oh right, the drink! they probably drugged it, seems like something they would do
an exasperated gasp leaves you when you finally let your body fall, eyes closing, preparing for impact. and the next thing you know you wake up, hands tied above you to the headboard, your body completely bare. you’d struggle with all your might, soft whines sounding at the back of your throat when you spot the two of them hiding in the shadows, staring down at you with those bright, lust-filled eyes
oh, you’re so dead
your body feels like it’s on fire, desperately needing release, needing someone to touch you, anyone. your voice betrays you as whimpers leave you when they stalk towards you, their burning gaze not helping with the burning sensation.
you really did think you could escape! so why’re you here, tied and unable to move? tears fall as you lock eyes with veritas ratio, your fight or flight kicking in when he reaches out to caress your cheek, wiping the tears away. laughter sounds from aventurine on the other side of the bed, you’re just so naive! all he wants to do is to love and break you until you’re a sobbing mess beneath him 😵‍💫 so don’t blame him when he kisses you, he just can’t help it anymore, not when you’re already shaking when all they did was drug your drink and reveal themselves to you after months of stalking :(
the aphrodisiac is making you incredibly sensitive to their touch, which is perfect for them because that would mean hearing your sweet cries of pleasure! you best prepare yourself though, because they’re not stopping until you’re about to pass out 🧎🏻‍♀️ they haven’t had you for months, nobody is going to stop them from worshipping you, not even yourself.
you’ll be so overstimulated by the end of the night that even just innocent touches can have you whining and trembling like a leaf (^^)
“you really think you can run from us?” — veritas ratio
“who you knew you were so filthy, hmm? you wanted us to hunt you down, didn’t you? dirty, dirty girl.” — veritas ratio
“missed you so much, pretty girl.” — aventurine
“stop? now why would we do that? you’re clearly enjoying this. look at you, making such a mess on my cock.” — aventurine

Twisted deception - Teaser
Tumblr media
Synopsis: Betrayal and manipulation were always a constant in your life. Leading your family's legacy as a mafia boss is not an easy task and most of the times can lead to losing the ones you love most. You've always kept away from love, but even is this dark and unforgiving world it finds you. But it also breaks you.
Pairing: mafia boss Mingyu x mafia boss reader
doctor Seungcheol x mafia boss reader
Genre: strangers to lovers, enemies to lovers, mafia au, angst, fluff, smut
Warnings: mafia scenarios, death, gun mentions, blood, cheating, sex scenes, nudity... will post others along the way if needed
Status: ongoing
Started: july 23th 2024
Word count of the teaser: 1181
Information: So I wanted to do something different for this fic. I've decided to use a name instead of Y/N(RUA). For me, it gves more depth and dimension to the character and it helps with the wrting/reading process. It's a random name that I thought about randomly and it also starts with the letter of my own name. I don't know, I find it pretty, short and simple. I will start writing on the first chapter after I finish with Parallel Hearts story(about two more chapters to go). Not sure how many chapters this one will have, maybe 2 or 3. Sugestions and comments are welcomed.
Don't forget to support the writers by rebloging their works! Thank you!
Teaser
It was white before it was black. You blacked out and you don’t know why. It’s so cold and wet.
You feel like you’re floating and your ears are ringing loud. Am I dying, is this it?
The ringing starts to go down and you hear blasts, guns and screams. You hear a voice and you can’t understand what it says and who’s voice is it.
Have they kidnapped me? Are the Kim’s really this low to try to take me? Oh God, what are they going to do to me? I feel sick. I feel like throwing up.
“How is she? Is she breathing?”
“I don’t fucking know, let me get her in the car, faster”
Is it Jun? You feel tears burning your eyes and face. Why can’t I open my eyes?
What is that feeling on my leg, burning almost. I feel something running down to my toes.
“Shit, she’s bleeding bad, hurry, we need to get to Jin!”
“Fucking Kim, I want to stay behind and finish them all!”
“Noo, don’t be stupid, Hao! You might be the best assassin in the business, but you are one and they are many”
Oh, I am not caught by the Kim’s. Good, now I can rest a little.
You faint from all the blood loss from the wound on your leg and you’re finally in the car, Minghao quickly getting behind the wheel and driving off towards the hospital where your brother Jin was a doctor.
Next thing you remember is waking up in a hospital room, with Your bother and Jun net to your bed, discussing something.
Rua: Jin…
Jin: You’re awake! You scared me!
Rua: Sorry. Is everyone ok, Jun?
Jun: Two of our men got shot by the Kim’s and one died in the explosion
Rua: Fuck!
As you’re starting to blurt out shit about your rival clan, you try to get up and your legs are not working properly
Jin: Oh, come oon, are you ever going to stay put for 5 minutes? You’re not yet ready to go out there yet.
Rua: I will fucking end him! I’ll end Kim Mingyu with my own hands!
Jun: How did they find out we were meeting with the Min’s there?
Minghao’s voice feels like a whisper when he enters the room, unnoticed.
Minghao: Something’s not right. I saw none of the Min’s men there tonight.
Rua: I personally spoke to Yoongi on the phone.
Minghao: This was definitely a trap. But for who?
Rua: Hao, I need you to get to the bottom of this asap. I won’t let this go away.
Minghao nods and he leaves the room. You know he’ll find out, no matter what. He’s the best at what he does and you’re lucky you have him on your side. His father was your dad’s right hand and you two have been best friends since you were little. Of course he would be on your side.
Jin: Do you need me right now? I need to to check on some patients for now.
Rua: Thanks, Jini, if I need something I have Jun here with me.
Jun: And Seokmin is outside the door.
Jin: Well ok then, see you later. Don’t be an idiot and try to leave!
After one hour, you tried to get back to sleep but you couldn’t. All these thoughts were running trough your mind. Was it really Yoongi the one you talked to on the phone, was it a scam? Who is trying to kill you? Are the both clans working together? How are you going to proceed from now on?
You decide to get up and try to find Jin. He might be in his office. Outside your door are Jun and Dokyeom, eyes going wide when they see you.
Dokyeom: Boss, come on, get back to bed! You’re hurt.
Rua: I’m fine, I just need to find Jin.
Jun: I’m going with you.
Rua: Guys, it’s safe here. Take a break, ok? Eat something and get some rest in my room.
Jun: Here, take my gun, keep it under your robe.
Rua: Ok, if it makes you feel better.
Dokyeom: We don’t want to risk anything, especially after tonight. We could have lost you. We could have all died there.
Hearing that it makes your blood boil and the feeling of revenge grows bigger inside you. You’re no weak girl, you’ll show them all. You were born for this, trained for this life. Ever since you were 5 years old, your father took you under his wing and teached you everything he knew.
There was no other person in the world he trusted more. He could see your potential, how smart you were, how good you could read people and situations and how fast you were with actions and solutions.
Walking slowly down the hospital hallways, you feel a bit sleepy. Good, I’ll be able to sleep after I talk to my brother then. I thought I will stay awake all night.
Reaching a dead end, you can’t remember if Jin’s office was to the right or to the left. You stop. Someone is talking. You don’t turn the corner, don’t want to risk being see. Afterall, you don’t know who these men are.
None of them is Jin or anyone you know. You don’t recognise the voices. You keep quiet and at the same time you feel sleepier. What’s going on?
“She’s in room 79. Make it quick and clean. No witnesses.”
“Got it. Let’s move!”
They are walking towards you. Shit! You can’t run, your leg has stiches from that ugly cut on your thigh. Oh, the gun. As you try to get your gun from under your robe, you feel a firm pull. A hand grabbing your waist, pulling you into a door.
The room is dark. So dark that you are not sure your eyes are closed or opened. You feel pression over your mouth. A hand. A body behind you. Warm. You feel warm. And so sleepy. Damn, Jin must have put you on some strong pain killers.
You feel his breath right behind your ear, feel his hear beating on your back, his other hand wrapped tight around your waist.
You hear commotion outside, slaming. A shot. A second shot. Jun, Seokmin. They’ll be fine, they are smart and cautious. They’ll be fine.
“Shh, keep quiet a minute more. I’ll remove my hand, ok?”
You nod.
Rua: Who are you? Why did you pull me in here?
“I work here and I heard their conversation and needed to act fast. Sorry.”
Rua: I feel so dizzy. I’m not feeling well.
“What do you want to do now?”
“Just take me out of here. Anywhere. I need..”
And you passed out from the painkillers. As you’re getting deeper and deeper into sleep, you feel strongs hands lifting you up and carrying you away. You don’t know who this man is and where he’s taken you.
You’re so far gone that you didn’t even think he might be there to hurt you.

"I Just Felt Like Cryin"
AN: this randomly came to me in one of my dreams and i had to write it out. i love this concept even though it breaks my heart a little bit. i hope you enjoy and your feedback is welcome!!!!!
This story contains: just crying and comfort
{ dadrry - husband!harry - softrry - have three kids but they aren't in really in story }
word count- 1,061
Harry comes home from the studio and just feels like crying for whatever reason.
Tumblr media
As soon as Harry came home from the studio you could tell something was wrong. He wasn't as cheerful as he usually was and he seemed lost in his train of thought. But knowing Harry, he tried to hide his emotions well and act as if nothing was wrong. Especially in front of your three kids. He didn't want his kids to see him have a breakdown. He only wanted them to see their father in a happy state.
The problem tonight was that even Harry didn't know what was wrong with himself. He wasn't necessarily sad and he wasn't mad. So maybe it's a combination of stress and built up emotions but he just felt on the verge of crying all evening. There was this burning behind his eyes that you get when you're trying not to cry and Harry can't seem to get rid of it.
--------------------------------
After going through the routine of giving your kids their baths and tucking them into bed, it was time to go to bed yourselves. This part in your night routines can vary depending on your moods. If you were feeling needy, then it would consist of making love under the duvet. If you wanted to relax more, it could consist of sharing a bath or shower together. If you were tired, it would consist of just cuddling and going to sleep. Tonight you didn't know what to expect but you knew sex was off the table.
You came into your bedroom to brush your teeth and then begun putting your creams and lotions on your skin as you sat on the edge of the bed. Harry told you he'd be back in a moment, that he was going to get himself a glass of water from the kitchen. You were nervous because you didn't want there to be anything seriously going on with him. You hated to see your husband so down.
The whole journey to the kitchen Harry was fighting tears. Then on the way back up to your shared bedroom he was fighting tears. He didn't want to cry tonight. Not that he was embarrassed to cry in front of you. No, you've been married for so long that he's completely okay with being vulnerable around you. He just didn't want to make you sad because he knows when you see him cry you get sad.
But as soon as Harry stepped foot in the bedroom and shut the door behind himself, he took one glance at you, the person he loves most, and his bottom lip started quivering and his shoulders started shaking as a sob left his body. You stood up quickly and walked across the room, first grabbing the glass of water out of his shaky hands. Then asking, "Baby, what's wrong? Hey, it's okay."
Harry just wraps his arms around you and sobs into your shoulder. You haven't seen him cry this hard since the death of his step father and it's really worrying you. "I....." Harry tries to speak, "I donno."
"Are you sad or feeling sick?" you gently question.
"No, I, I just felt like cryin'. M'sorry. I'm a big baby." he mutters as you lead him over to the bed. Now you understand a bit more. Harry has been stressed lately and you have a feeling his emotions just got backed up so much that now they are all flowing out of him. Typically Harry is the type of person that will ignore his emotions until they come spewing out of him. For some it's with anger that includes yelling and being violent. For Harry, he's not an angry or violent person so his emotions are tears.
You help Harry sit on the edge of the bed while continuing to hug him to your chest. His cries are slowing down but are still somewhat there. "Shhh," you whisper while leaning back to lay down under the covers and stroke the back of his scalp, "It's okay. You can cry if you feel like it. I'll be here the entire time and hold you, okay." Just wanting your husband to know its okay to cry it out.
Harry nods his head where it's placed over your heartbeat, his favorite place to be. He loves laying his head over your heartbeat during sex to feel how fast he's got it beating for him. But he also just loves to feel it to comfort him when he's trying to sleep or is upset about something.
After a few more minutes, Harry coos in a hoarse voice, "Thank you. Thank you for always knowing how to comfort me and thank you for loving me." His words nearly bring you to tears.
"Harry, babe, you're so easy to love. You have the biggest heart and everyone can't help but to show you love. I love you so much." you tell him truthfully. You do love Harry with every fiber in your body. You wouldn't have married him if you didn't. You wouldn't have let him get you pregnant three times and had his beautiful babies if you didn't love this heavy man laying across your chest right now.
Harry lifts his head off your chest and leans forward, going in for a kiss, but you stop him. He gets a sad look of rejection on his face but you reach over to your nightstand and grab a tissue. "You have snot running out your nose, babe. Here, let me help you wipe it up." You gently cradle the side of his face and help him wipe his snotty nose. It doesn't gross you out at all because you do have kids that have desensitizes you to this kind of stuff. "There we go. Now you can kiss me."
With the first smile you've seen on his face all night, Harry leans in again and places the most softest kiss on your lips. It only lasted a second but that second means everything to you. After the kiss, Harry whispers, "I love you." He leans back down to snuggle into your covered chest. You grab the edge of the duvet and help drape it over his back to keep the both of you warm. Then once you reach to turn the lamp off and the bedroom is filled with darkness, you began to fall asleep with Harry in your arms.

Tumblr media
"God fucking dammit," you muttered as you reached out to open the unlocked door to your shared apartment with Aegon.
An unlocked door meant one thing: Aegon brought another girl back for a quick, thoughtless fuck. After countless years of suffering this, starting in your freshman year, one would think it would be easy to ignore without a thought. This night, however, was not the ideal night to handle Aegon’s shenanigans. Work had you tiresomely stretched out, often staying up all night to meet deadlines: an old habit you optimistically thought would cease after college. On top of that, lately it felt unbearing, that the universe seemed to have dismissed you, seizing every opportunity to strip you from an ounce of joy or serenity.
Tumblr media
The small yet infuriating incidents from spilling coffee all over yourself or dropping a burger over your work attire, pens running out of ink at times you desperately needed them, your computer randomly restarting for an update, it was everything bundling and boiling up to breaking point… And it felt like tonight was that night.
Taking a deep breath, mentally trying to prepare yourself for the incessant and unfortunate familiar banging of the walls, alongside the mindless moans and grunts, you turned the handle and stepped into the room.
Nothing. There was nothing.
Worry pierced through your head. The door was unlocked so Aegon had to be here, right? You paced across the hall, keeping your steps as silent as possible when you arrived at Aegon's door. Pressing your ear against the door, hoping to idly eavesdrop into a conversation, yet all you could gather was silence from the other side.
"Aegon?" You enquired through the wooden shield of the door. "Aegon, are you in there?" Now ardently knocking on the door a little harder than you should. "Aegon, please! Please tell me -"
The door swung open to reveal a pissed off woman clad only in a matching set of lace underwear.
"Who the fuck is this, Aegon?" She looked you up and down with distaste
Aegon gave a little chuckle. "Don't worry, Sara, that's just my roommate."
You peered past her to see Aegon laying on his bed with only grey sweatpants on. He had a lazy smile on his face and gave you a knowing wink. Blush crept up your neck to your cheeks and you had hoped Aegon hadn’t caught a glimpse at your bashful state. Yet despite the mild distance between you two, you could see him scan your face. His smile grew when he noticed the pink shade across your cheeks. He rather enjoyed making you envious, basking in your natural reactions. All you needed was a little more pressure from him to admit the truth.
Or at least that's what he believed.
"You didn't tell me you had one," she glanced over you once again, "but I guess it's nothing to worry about."
"My roomie is no one, babe, I promise," he said as he gave her a flirtatious wink, a habit he seemed to share with the entire female campus.
"Hmmm…good." She slammed the door leaving you stunned and to some honest degree, honesty, irritated.
No one. He said you were no one, his harsh words echoing in your restless mind.
A tight sensation began to burden your chest, and hot tears threatened to fall, yet you shoved it all down, swallowing the large gulp painfully caught your throat, just like you always did. Consuming the raw heartbreak, you gather yourself and the mental walls, you hid yourself behind in defense, slowly making your return to the living room.
If you went to your room it was a given that you would hear everything that was a realistic and harsh possibility, yet you found your feet moving towards the familiar space. A few minutes passed until you heard a faint moan echoing from the direction of Aegon’s room and the light banging of the bed against the wall. Sighing in defeat, you place your noise canceling headphones on and searching up YouTube to mindlessly watch some video essay explaining this new ARG, Welcome Home. You found that submerging your senses to the very unnerving voice of Wally Darling was a great way to tune out the other background noises..
As much as you loved Aegon, you could never not be annoyed by this grotesque habit of his. Every other week was a new girl to fuck and mess about with, with no care nor implications in the world. None of them ever meant anything to him, you knew that much. No, you could tell. His lilac eyes never lit up when he saw them, his warm smile never reached his eyes, and he never talked about them willingly. The only times he would mention them was whenever he remembered to give you a heads up that he'd have one of them over for the night. You figured if he was inviting them over they'd be decent people, respectable enough to acknowledge your presence. You had hoped they'd be decent because Aegon deserved at least that. Whenever they'd show up you would do your best to be polite and welcoming in a weirdly humourous way, one time you’d even blurted to some poor victim of his hookup "hey you're here to suck my roommate", only to be disregarded and treated like utter shit. It was as though you didn't exist.
More so, you despised the way he acted when one of them came over, putting on some macho facade. Aegon would become old Aegon. The Aegon you initially met, the one who wore the mask of a guy who didn't give a fuck about anyone or anything. He was snarky and cocky, with the only priority of having the highest known body count. Yet you knew better, you saw through that careless exterior. After being paired together on assignment you two started hanging out. About a month or two after the project was assigned, he opened up. He played the part of the college frat fuckboy flawlessly, yet you could see right through that. You did your best to be someone he could trust; you knew there was more to him. Soon enough, your assignment partner became your best friend, your go to person, a person you'd do anything for. And that's how you ended up sharing an apartment with Aegon.
But there was something else.
There was a tug drawing you to him. Whenever you were away from Aegon there was a palpable ache in your heart. Whenever a sorority girl stayed the night your heart shattered, only to be slowly put together the next day by your very own hands. At the time you didn't want to admit it to yourself but eventually you had to.
It wasn't terrible at first. You lived a domestic life with your best friend with no worry in the world. Until he started bringing friends home. Just the occasional random girl moaning in his room once a month or so but now it was every other week. You hate to admit it but it hurt. It hurt so fucking much. You wished it was you in that room but you wouldn't tell him. It would ruin your friendship.
You loved Aegon, not just as a friend but as something more. The only problem was that you loved Aegon so much that you'd want him to be happy, even if it meant seeing him being with other girls. Yet you could never see yourself with someone else, only with him.
After watching every single reaction video to Welcome Home, Sara finally left Aegon's room wearing one of his shirts.
"See you next time, roomie," she said as she gave you a mocking smile before exiting the apartment.
You rolled your eyes as you started to pick up your laptop to move to your room when you heard him enter.
"Done with your fucking for the night?" You refused to look at him.
"Yeah," he leaned against the wall. "Unless you wanna be my round two."
"I'm not interested in sloppy seconds, Aeg. Next time just give me a heads-up, yeah? I don't like coming home to your moans."
"Oh, you know you love coming home to my moans," he teased. He loved riling you up like this.
"Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night. Unlike me, who has to endure your headboard slamming against the wall," you bit out.
Aegon was taken aback by your sudden hostility and couldn’t fathom a response. Taking his silence as confirmation that he didn't care, you finished gathering your stuff and headed to your room. But as you passed Aegon, he abruptly stepped in front of you, halting you in your tracks.
"Hey, you're not seriously mad at me, are you?" His brows furrowed worriedly. "It's been a few months of this and now you're getting upset about it?"
"In case you haven't noticed, I've been annoyed with this the whole time." You sighed and rubbed your tiresome eyes. "It wasn't too bad at first, I could ignore it fine but then it kept happening more and more often than favored. Each girl was more terrible to me than the last. And you never do shit about it, you never defend me. You seemed perfectly happy to let these one night stands walk all over your best friend, it seems." You glared at him, "You said I was nothing, Aegon.. I understand you put on this whole facade to get laid but that… that was cold, Aeg… Even for you. You're back to your old habits and it makes me want to run. Anyway," you took a deep breath, wanting this conversation to end, "I'm going to bed, I’m too tired for this right now… Night, Aegon."
He called your name and adamantly tried to follow you. You knew Aegon didn't like it when you were upset with him. You hoped he would try harder to get to you and say you were right and that he needs to look at himself again.
When you turned around to hear his side he shut down. Instead of saying anything he just blankingly stared at you. You could see his poor attempt to gather the courage to talk, yet no words fell from his soft lips. For the first time in weeks you two looked at each other, really looked at each other. The friendship between you has always been strong but you've been feeling it deteriorate, eating away slowly and slowly. You were hoping to see the bit of your best friend in those eyes, yet all you saw was regret.
When you turned to your door you found yourself saying more. "I'm tired, Aegon. I'm tired of this." You put your hand on the doorknob. "I miss you." You entered your room and locked yourself in before he could say anything.
You crawled into your bed and curled up, hugging your knees. Once again your chest tightened and tears gathered in the corner of your eyes. Only this time, you let them fall.
Tumblr media
It's been weeks since Aegon invited someone to spend the night and it kind of pissed you off. You lost your cool one night and suddenly he just stops. It felt as though he was babying you, which was the part that was pissing you off. The other part of you felt relieved, hoping everything could go back the way it was before. You wanted goofy, vulnerable Aegon, not the one who was around a few weeks ago.
However, it didn't last. Just when you thought it was over, you came home to find Aegon's face buried between some random girl's legs. She still had her clothes on, as though Aegon couldn't wait to taste her. It was only her blouse unbuttoned and skirt that was bunched up and her legs spread that immediately clued you in to what was happening. Her head was thrown back, eyes were shut, and a silent scream left her body as Aegon brought her to the edge.
Anger bubbled inside you, threatening to pour over. The girl turned her head and smirked at you as though she knew you were there the entire time. She took her time slipping off the counter, fixing her hair into something slightly more put together. Once she painstakingly straightened herself up she fully turned to you and flashed the biggest smile.
"Oh, hey, roomie." It was Sara. "I didn't think I'd see you again. Aegon hasn't hit me up in a month so I thought he was fucking you." She laughed. "Sorry, I'm a little tle out of breath. He really knows what to do, not that you'd know anything about that, right?" She gave you a teasing wink.
All you could do was stare at her.
"I'm just joking, roomie. I know he'd never fuck you. Anyway, I figured I'd pay him a visit just be sure. Glad to see I was wrong."
She finished buttoning her top and smoothed down her skirt as Aegon got up. Sara quickly turned and pulled him into a mockingly deep kiss. You rolled your eyes when you spotted Aegon flexing his hands trying not to touch her. You walked in on him eating her out. His attempt to not touch her in front of you was an insult. You looked back at his face and saw his eyes glued on you while Sara tried to stick her tongue in his mouth. You've never seen him so uncomfortable with someone else like this. He looked almost apologetic yet he did nothing to move away from her. Sara finally pulled away, but not before grabbing one of Aegon's hands to run over her chest.
Sara turned back to you. "Same time next week? Maybe we'll try it in your bed, roomie. Gotta keep it exciting."
She gave you a demeaning wink before bending down to pick up her purse, obviously giving you a view of her ass. You looked over at Aegon, fuming, but only saw him trying, and failing, not to gawk at her backside. As though he felt your stare, his eyes shot to you and immediately looked ashamed. Sara was taking her sweet time getting up and gathering her things, steadily coaxing your anger with little comments here and there about how much she looks forward to next time, what they should try out, and what she wanted to do again. But it was her last comment that made you explode.
"You should move in with me, Aeg. You'll get sick of her sooner or later. You know I'm better for you anyway. She's no one worth remembering and obviously does nothing for -"
"Get. The. Fuck. Out," you growled.
Sara slowly turned to you and pursed her lips in mock sympathy. "Aw, is the little roomie jealous? Don't worry, I'm sure you'll find someone desperate enough to fuck you."
Red flooded your vision as everything became blurry. You didn't have control over your actions anymore. You launched yourself at Sara with your hands curved into claws. She had no time to move before you tackled her down and dragged your nails across her face. As she screamed you pulled her hair to force her to look you in the eye.
There weren't any deep scratches on her but you drew blood. Sick pride washed over you when you looked at her. A mix of eyeliner, tears, and the slightest tint of blood splotted across her face.
"You can dismiss my existence and waltz around like you own the place but let me make something clear," you whispered. "You will never call me desperate, you will never call me being worthless, and you will never force me out of my home. This is my place, not yours. It never was and it never will be."
You took a deep breath before pulling her back up. Sara was standing with your hand still gripping her hair.
You made sure your next words burned.
"You will never have a place in Aegon's heart. I know you think I believed your smug confidence and the terribly misplaced belief that you were his but you were wrong. Not for one second have I ever believed that Aegon would actually love you. You want me to be nothing to him but that will never happen. You can't sleep your way to Aegon, you only think you can. The truth is that you know nothing about him. But I do. I'm the one who has Aegon's heart, not you."
Sara whimpered when you tugged on her hair.
"Now," you breathed, "you're gonna get the fuck out of here and never come back. Do you understand?"
Sara broke her terrified stare from you to a pleading one to Aegon. "Aegon, you know I'm better for you. She's nothing compared to me. You said it yourself, she's nothing."
Aegon didn't try to comfort her. He looked straight at her without any trace of emotion.
"I think it's time for you to leave, Sara."
"Seriously?!"
"You were a mistake. Every girl was."
You lips pressed into a tight smile as you dragged Sara, still by her hair, to the door. "If I see you here again," you growled, "I will do more than simply scratch your face." You threw her out with your final words and slammed the door shut.
Tension engulfed the room. It was as though The red in your eyes slowly faded away until your head cleared up. All you could do was stand there. You didn't realize how fast your heart has been beating, how hard you've been breathing, until you came back to reality. What you just did felt like a dream. There was no thinking involved, only instinct and anger.
Aegon coughed, breaking the silence. "Hey, so, um," he scratched the back of his neck. "I guess -"
"Don't." You turned to face him. "I'm going to take a shower, grab some whiskey, and crash in my bed. Maybe we'll talk later. Or maybe we can just forget this happened," you let out a mirthless laugh, "and you can go back to fucking someone new every week."
"Wait, hold up, we need to -"
You held a hand up. "Stop, Aegon, please. I said a lot of things in the heat of the moment. Don't worry about me."
It's been two weeks since you kicked Sara out, which meant that it's been two weeks since you blew up in front of him. Everything you said was true, whether or not Aegon wanted to believe it. If he was too much of a coward to admit anything then so be it. But since then he's been almost non-existent. He was never in the apartment when you were and if he was he kept his door closed. As much as you wanted to check in on him you also wanted to hold your ground. What he did was stupid and hurt like hell.
Tumblr media
After working an exhausting ten hour shift, you dragged yourself into the apartment. The lights were off but you could see a figure sitting on the couch and hear a dull thump from something hitting the table. You creeped closer to get a close look at them.
It was Aegon.
He was wallowing in his own self pity, drinking as much as he could. There were two empty bottles of beer on the table. A third half-empty bottle was in his hand. Wearing worn out black sweatpants and a ratty hoodie, Aegon took a swig before muttering some curses to himself. As you got closer to him you could smell the alcohol.
"What a fucking idiot," he laughed. Aegon took another swig of whatever bottle he had in his hand and promptly slammed it down.
You wanted to keep your mouth shut. You knew it would be better to walk away but it's been so long since you've talked that your resolve broke.
"You better not be talking about me," you said when you slipped into a spot next to him.
"Fucking hell," he flinched, spilling the contents of his drink. "Great, now it's on the fucking floor. Thanks." He threw a pillow on top of the mess figuring it would be better than nothing.
The two of you sat there in taut silence. Aegon didn't even reach for another drink. You were simply sitting in the quiet darkness together. You were about to break it when he spoke up first.
"I fucked up."
You let out a cold laugh. "Yeah, you really did."
He turned to look at you. Even in the dark you could see his eyes were a bit bloodshot. "I'm fucking trying, okay?" He rubbed his face. "No, you know what, forget it." Forgetting the bottle was empty, he picked it up to drink. He muttered a curse before setting it back down.
He got up to leave but you grabbed his hand before he could go any further. It was as though time was frozen. The second you took it everything became still. Aegon's hand was limp but you gave it a small squeeze encouraging him to stay.
"We need to talk about this. I know I've been avoiding it but you've been avoiding it, too. Hell, you've been avoiding me, Aeg."
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath before sitting back down.
"What do you want to talk about? How you went fucking ballistic? How you basically confessed your love for me?"
"Yes. All of that."
He nodded his head, asking you to go on.
"You changed so much, Aeg, and I didn't know what to do. When we first moved in you were my goofy best friend. You know, the one I tell everything to. Then one day it's like back at university before we met. You starting bringing in girl after girl to fuck and it just drove me up a wall. What the fuck happened?"
"What happened was my dad dying." He picked up an unopened bottle of beer and took a swig.
Your eyes widened at the confession. "Your dad died so you thought fucking someone new would help?"
"No - I mean yes, but it was more than that."
"It was more than that? I know you didn't give a shit about any of them."
He yanked his hand away. "Maybe not, but they have a shit about me!" He exploded.
"Excuse me?" You dangerously whispered. That has got to be utter bullshit, you thought.
"Sure, it may have only been to fuck me but it was something!"
"Just because they fuck you doesn't mean they care!" You jumped up. "They didn't fucking care but I did!" You pressed a finger to his chest. "I always have and I always will. Don't you fucking get it? I've been here since the beginning and you try to blame me for your dumb ass actions?"
Aegon grabbed your hand and pulled you close. "If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have to distract myself."
"Distract yourself? Did the death of your dad really fuck you up that bad? I know he didn't give a shit and you didn't either. Don't pretend to be so beat up over it." You tried to pull away but he held you tight.
"It fucked me up because it made me realize that I can somehow be better than my dad by caring about people."
You laughed. "And you care about every single girl you've fucked. Absolutely believable, Aeg."
He let go of you, almost pushing you away.
He dropped his head before speaking. "You said you cared. If you cared you would've been able to see the change."
You were gentle with your next words, "I can't read your mind. Just because I know you so well doesn't mean I can figure out every emotion you have."
Silence.
"Aeg, just tell me what's going on, please."
Still refusing to look at you, he dropped back to the couch. "I fell in love with you, that's what happened. I don't know when but I did. For some godforsaken reason my dad dying set off everything. All I could do was ignore it and I did that by taking someone to bed almost every night." He brought the bottle up to his lips but didn't drink anything.
You sat down next to him.
You didn't want to believe him.
"I know you've been drinking all night. You're just saying things."
He scoffed and chugged the rest of the beer. "Just because I've been drinking all night doesn't mean I don't know what I'm saying."
"Okay, fine. Let's assume everything you've told me is true. You may love me but nothing more than a friend, right?"
"No, that's not true."
"You have a funny way of showing it."
He locked eyes with you. "I wanted to push you."
"Push me? What did you need to push me for?" You questioned. "Besides, I think you pushed me pretty good when I attacked Sara."
"I pushed you too hard, I know that now. I did it because I wanted to get you closer to me. I wanted you jealous."
"First off, that's a fucking stupid plan. Second, I'm already close to you. Or at least was," you murmured the last part.
Aegon rubbed his eyes in frustration. "You don't get it. You're so fucking smart but you don't get it!"
"What don't I get?" You challenged.
"You don't get that I wanted you to make the first move!" He settled down before continuing. "I see the way you look at me. I see your reactions. I know you want more. But for once I needed you to make the first move. If you wanted me it had to be on your terms." He took a deep breath. "And you're right. I didn't give a shit about the girls I fucked. The only one I give a shit about is you. But when you didn't do anything I did what I know best. I didn't want to distract myself from my dad's death. Again, something you were right about. I was distracting myself from you."
You searched his eyes for any trace of dishonesty but didn't find any. "If you had said something I would've said yes." You reached out for his hand. "What you did was stupid but…I get it. Kinda. You were scared."
"Yeah, I was scared."
You scooted close to him. "Then take the leap." You were gentle with your words.
Aegon pulled you in and lowered his head to yours. "I don't want to fuck it up." His lips brushed against yours.
"So don't." You pressed your forehead against his.
For a few moments that's how you stayed. It was just you and Aegon. When you separated you gave him a soft smile. His eyes darted to your lips and you took your chance. You softly brushed your lips against his before giving him a true kiss.
Your eyes fluttered close. His lips were soft and joined you in tandem. It wasn't rough. The kiss was pure love. Emotions poured into the kiss. He pulled you on top of his lap before deepening the kiss. You smiled against him as you moved your hands up his arms and to his hair.
More. You wanted more.
You nipped at his bottom lip and he gladly opened up. When you slid your tongue in he snaked one arm around you right while the other ran up your sides. His arousal was beginning to prod against you and it spurred you on even more. You slowly rocked your hips against him.
"Fuck," he pulled away and buried his face in your neck. He kissed his way up and nipped at your ear. "You are so much better than the others."
"Don't talk about them. Look at me," you commanded.
Aegon looked up at you with big eyes.
"Take me to your room and I'll show you exactly what you missed out on."
He pushed you off his lap only to grab your wrist and practically run to his room. But before he could open the door you pulled him back and trapped him with one arm against the wall. You gave him a mischievous smile before dragging your hand down his body and to his hard cock. He tried to suppress a groan when you began palming him over his pants.
"Let it out, babe. I want to hear every sound you make."
You took pity on him when you could feel his cock getting harder. When you pulled your hand away he couldn't help but groan at the loss of contact.
"This is what happens when you play with me," you smirked.
Releasing him from the wall you let him take you into his room. Immediately you grabbed him by his hoodie to pull him down to you to crash your lips against his. Gone were the soft kisses. Now it was pure passion and lust.
You moved one hand to grab his and the other to place on his chest. As soon as you pushed him to the edge of the bed you took a step back.
"Strip for me," you commanded.
Aegon was quick to rid himself of his hoodie and sweatpants. When he went to pull down his underwear you stopped him.
"Let me do this." You came up to him and lowered yourself to your knees as you slid his briefs down.
His cock was at full attention, red and angry. You licked your lips and cupped his balls, slowly massaging them. He threw his head back.
"No, no. Look at me. I want you to watch me take you in."
All he could do was bring his head back and nod.
You moved your hand from his balls to his cock and slowly worked him. Leaning in to the tip you gave him small kitten licks. Once you got him breathing heavier you took all of him in your mouth. Never did you look away from him. You slowly began bobbing your head back and forth, loving the feel of him in you. When you decided to push him a little more with a hum around the cock he twitched. You hummed once again and brought your hand to his balls.
"Fuck, fuck, fuuuuck, I'm gonna cum," he breathed.
As soon as he said that you released him with an obscene pop. Aegon whined when he left your warm mouth.
"Don't worry, there's more. Now, lay back. No touching."
He nodded his head.
"I need to hear you say it."
He gulped. "I promise I won't touch myself."
"Good boy," you smiled.
You ran your hands over your tits before reaching down to brush yourself over your clothes. You brought your hands up to slowly take off your top. Once again you ran your hands over your tits, this time playing with your nipples through your bra.You looked over at Aegon to see him grasping the sheets and slowly rolling his hips into nothing.
"Are you so desperate that you have to hump the air? Aw, poor baby," you taunted. You reached down to the top of your pants and pulled it down. "This is a better view, isn't it?"
You walked to the bed and sat on your haunches between his legs.
"Be a dear and take off my bra for me."
Aegon sat up and ran his hands over your breasts and stopped to play with your hardened peaks before unclasping the bra and throwing it across the room.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk," you chided. "That wasn't nice. I guess I have to punish you now. Lay flat on your back." You could feel yourself get wetter telling him what to do.
He did as he was told, shaking with anticipation.
You climbed up his body to his face and slowly lowered yourself down.
"I want you to make me cum. You deserve to have a mess on your face."
He didn't need to be told twice. He pushed your panties to the side and licked a strip up your folds. He moaned and grabbed your thighs to keep you steady. He left open kisses all over your pussy. A coil began to tighten in your stomach.
"Fuck, babe. You're so good at eating my pussy. Do I taste good?"
You heard a muffled yes and smiled to yourself.
He moved from your folds to your clit. You rolled your hips against his face as he sucked and licked your bud. Every swipe of his tongue had you throwing your head back in bliss. It was almost too much but he didn't stop. He was bringing you closer and closer to the edge. Aegon moved away from your clit only to replace it with his thumb. He rubbed lazy circles as he dipped his tongue into your dripping cunt. He sped up his fucking and pressed on your clit sending you over the edge. The coil in your stomach released as you made a mess on his face.
You moved off his face. "What a good boy," you praised. "I think it's time for a reward."
You lowered yourself down his body. Wrapping a hand around his cock you worked him up to full hardness again. You gave him a few licks before taking the head in you mouth and sucking just a tiny bit. It was enough to make him moan and buck his hips up ever so slightly.
Letting go of him you chuckled when you moved to straddle him and lined up his cock with your pussy.
"Are you ready for me to ride you?"
"Yes, yes please."
"Good."
You slipped off your panties and let the drop next to the bed before sinking down on his cock. The stretch had you moaning, feeling every inch of him inside you completely. The way he filled you couldn't be described coherently. You began to move your hips slowly, taunting him. Aegon whimpered as he fought the urge to grab your waist
You leaned down to whisper in his ear. "You can touch me," you tell him. "I want you to touch me."
That was all he needed to let go of the sheets and attack your body with his hands. He ran over every single curve trying to commit them to memory. You swore you saw his mouth water when he reached up to play with your tits. You leaned down to give him better access. Immediately he took a nipple in his mouth and swirled his tongue around it.
You could feel that coil tighten again. Your hips rocked against him when he brought one hand to your clit. You had no choice but to sit up again and bounce on his cock.
"Holy fuck yes! Please, please, please, Aegon! Gods, you're so good at fucking me!"
He let out a deep groan as he pushed his hips up even higher. "You're tightening around me - oh, gods - you're gonna make me cum inside you," he moaned. His hands moved to your hips helping you ride him but he was getting sloppy.
"Do it." You were clenching around him tighter than you ever thought was possible.
"Do it, Aegon. Cum for me."
The thrusts became desperate and wild. You and Aegon let out a scream as you came together. You felt him empty himself inside you. His cock twitched weakly as you tried to control your collapse on him. He wrapped his arms around you.
"Can we stay like this?" He asked, his cock still inside you.
"Yes, of course." You turned your head and kissed his cheek. "I want this. I want you, Aegon."
"I know."
A few minutes passed before you moved off of him. You felt empty without him inside you but you got up anyway and kneeled on the floor so you head was by his. You ran a hand through his hair and placed a gentle kiss on his forehead.
"Let me clean you up, babe," you whispered.
"Okay." He reached over to cup your face and traced a small circle on your cheek.
You got up to go to the bathroom to clean yourself up then returned with a wet towel. Giving him a small smile, you ran the towel over his body. You were extra careful around his lower regions knowing he was still sensitive. When you finished cleaning him you slipped yourself into his arms.
"Look at me, Aegon." You said. "You're not gonna fuck this up."
"I don't want to hurt you." His eyes filled with worry.
"We are not going to fuck it up," you paused. "I love you, too. Always have and always will."

'til the grave and when we're ghosts
| This is a birthday ficlet for my flower, Dio (@flowercrowngods), who deserves all the happiness and love that he can possibly get, especially on his birthday. I hope the love between Steve and Eddie is sweet enough for you today ❤️ - Mickala
--------------------
“The moon’s hiding tonight,” Steve whispered.
He’d come outside with Eddie to help him relax after a hard day at physical therapy. The air around them was thick with a tension Steve wasn’t used to.
Even on his bad days, Eddie was usually still light enough to float around the space they shared, bringing happiness to Steve that he hadn’t been prepared for.
“Yeah. Maybe she’s having a bad day too,” Eddie whispered, his voice sounding choked, wet.
Close to tears.
Steve turned onto his side, watched as Eddie closed his eyes, a tear slipping down the side of his face.
Steve reached his fingers out slowly, wiping away the moisture and waiting for Eddie to open his eyes again.
“What’s wrong, Eds?”
Eddie finally turned his face, another tear escaping from his eye.
“Do you ever wonder if it’s worth the trouble?”
“If what’s worth the trouble?”
“The work of getting better. The fact that I’m six months into recovery and barely closer to being cleared for take off than I was when I started is annoying. What’s worse is that this may be all I ever get to be again. I might always have a limp, and pain, and lose feeling in my leg and arm randomly, and phantom pain in my stomach. I could spend years at physical therapy and brain therapy and taking medications and it could all mean nothing.”
Steve cupped Eddie’s jaw, shaking his head as he spoke.
“It’s all for something. It’s to show yourself that you are alive. It’s to show the kids that you aren’t gonna give up on being the best you can be. It’s to show Wayne that you are the same Eddie you’ve always been.”
“But it’s hard. It’s so hard.”
Steve leaned in and kissed a tear on his cheek, biting back his own sob when Eddie pulled him on top of him.
Sometimes Eddie liked to feel small. He liked having Steve surround him, liked having Steve’s face right above him so he couldn’t see anything, feel anything, but Steve.
And Steve always knew when he needed it, always made himself bigger, shielded him from the world.
He did it now, curled himself around Eddie so that none of the barely-there moonlight could break through. Shared breaths against lips kept them both warm, kept them safe.
“I am so proud of you, baby. Even when it’s hard, you try. Even when it’s hard, you don’t run. You could have given up every single day since you woke up, but you didn’t. You kept going, kept trying, kept showing up for yourself. You make me so proud just to know you, let alone get to love you.”
Eddie’s leaking eyes watched Steve’s, his gaze turning softer as Steve spoke, his body relaxing more with every word.
It’s not the way Steve was going to tell him he loved him, not even close to his original plan.
His original plan was a romantic dinner, all of Eddie’s favorites, even the cookies that were kind of a pain in the ass to make but made Eddie light up. Watching the stars like this, but in the privacy of Steve’s backyard instead of the semi-privacy of the backyard of the new trailer. Going for a midnight swim, clothes abandoned on the pool chairs, skin against skin underwater and above it.
He’d wrap his arms around Eddie’s waist, the cool water lapping at their skin as Eddie pulled him against his chest, humming a song or whispering a story of just breathing slowly.
He’d tell him. He’d say he loved him. Make sure he knew how every moment with him is a moment Steve couldn’t have dreamed up if he tried.
That was the plan.
Plans can change, but his feelings don’t.
He loved Eddie when he was in a coma in the hospital, he loved Eddie when he woke up begging to see Dustin to make sure he really was okay, he loved Eddie every time he laughed and sang and made wild gestures for the people he loved.
He’ll keep loving Eddie through every moment of pain, through every day like today and night like this, he’ll love Eddie because it’s easy.
“I love you, Eddie. More than you can possibly imagine or know, more than I can say. And every day it gets bigger and better and I wonder what I could have possibly done to deserve this chance. I didn’t know it was possible to love a person as much as I love you, but I’ll keep doing it, every single day, for as long as you let me and beyond that. ‘Til the grave and when we’re ghosts, baby.”
Steve was shaking, both with the effort of staying above Eddie for so long and with the emotions spilling out of him.
He cupped Eddie’s jaw, his thumb wiping away a set of fresh tears.
He rested his forehead against Eddie’s, felt Eddie’s hands reach up and hold his hips, tug his waist down so they were touching at nearly every point they physically could be.
“I didn’t think I’d have this, I still don’t.”
“But you do, Eds. You do. You have me, you have the love I have for you. It’s all yours for as long as you want it.”
“‘Til the grave and when we’re ghosts?” Eddie smirked up at him, his cheeks flush from crying.
“Exactly.”
Steve nudged his nose against Eddie’s, silently asking for a kiss if he was ready for one. Not pushing, just suggesting.
Eddie leaned his head back so their lips could meet in a messy kiss, the tears staining Eddie’s face now becoming a part of Steve’s.
But that was it, wasn’t it?
Steve wanted every part of Eddie.
He wanted the sunshine and the moon and the stars. He wanted the laughter and fun and love. He wanted the touch and the looks and the excitement.
But he also wanted the tears and the snot. He wanted the bad days and the pain. He wanted the nightmares and the trauma.
He wanted it all with Eddie because Eddie was worth having it all with.
“I’ll take any bad day with you over any good day without you,” Eddie whispered as they pulled apart. “I love you too.”
Steve shivered at the words, felt the way they carved a permanent place in his chest.
Love didn’t fix the bad days, not for Eddie or for Steve, but it made them bearable, made them feel like they had something to hold onto when everything seemed hard to grasp.

Tumblr media
You were absolutely furious as you stood across from him in your kitchen. He stared at you with his eyebrows pushed together. It was taking everything in you to not slap him, but you knew damn well he would barely feel it. Nor would he really care if you slapped him. 
“Just leave Chan. I’m done,” you said pointing to the front door. You just wanted to go to bed and not see him anymore tonight. He’s hurt your feelings enough for one night. 
He rolled his dark eyes at you, and that just seemed to frustrate you even more. He couldn’t seem to understand that you didn’t want to be around him right now.
“I’m not going anywhere,” he groaned. As long as you have known him he has always been a stubborn man. 
“I’m not your fuck buddy anymore so you can leave,” you seethed. Your feelings were hurt and you were so mad you could barely see straight. This was you telling him it was over. Your arrangement was now done. If he was just your fuck buddy your feelings wouldn’t be hurt. Tonight made it clear you had fallen for him. 
You and Chan had been sleeping together for the last six months. You liked him way more then you knew you probably should and you don’t know if he saw you as anymore then someone to get his sexual tension out on. You had been friends and met because Minho introduced you and from the moment you met you just hit it off. You basically had a crush on him from the moment you met him. What wasn’t to like? He was handsome, talented and charming. You didn’t think he had any interest in you other than being my friend. Sleeping with him really brought you out of your shell. 
You had spent most of your life insecure about your body and he made you feel sexy. You were the first person Chan had slept with since the his bad break up up three years ago, and you could tell being with you was a way to release his built up sexual tension.
“Why are you cutting me out?” he asked.
“Because you can’t go kissing another women and just expect to come back here and have sex with me,” you said pointing my finger at him.
You were at the bar with Chan and some of the other boys. You had all been drinking and then some pretty girl who was wearing one of the shortest dresses you had ever seen came over and was flirting with him and then next thing you knew they were kissing. You stormed out of the bar and were quickly followed by Chan. He didn’t actually let you get very far before he grabbed your waist stopping you from running away from him. Pushing away from him you walked home from the bar with him following you. You knew you couldn’t end this night without talking. You were friends first before you started sleeping together so you knew you had to at least talk things out. 
“She kissed me and I pushed her off,” he said lightly, moving your hand away from him.
“You should've said no,” you seethed leaning against the counter that was behind you. Your eyes brimmed with tears. You were hurt and you couldn’t help but want to cry. 
“I pushed her off me and chased after you,” he said, stepping towards you. “I respect you too much to go randomly kissing some random girl.”
“Chan I’m not your girlfriend so let’s just end this and maybe we can be friends again,” you sighed. You really wanted this to be over and you just wanted him gone the more this fight dragged on the more it just broke your heart.
“Are you really that dumb that you don’t realize I would want more with you?” he asked, taking another step towards you. A salty tear slipped down your cheek as his hand gently rested on your cheek. This thumb delicately dragged across your cheek wiping away your tears. 
“Chan half the time we have sex I feel like the lights are on but nobody home.” You couldn’t believe you were actually having this conversation.
He pulls back from you and stares at you with a confused look on his face. “What the fuck is that supposed to mean?” It was obvious that you had struck a nerve. “Do you not get off when we have sex? Because last time I checked I always make sure you cum before me.”
You rolled your eyes at his comment. You weren't saying by any means that he satisfied you in bed. It was more he wasn’t emotionally there.
“That’s not what I mean,” you groaned. “It’s all mechanical with you. When we have sex it’s the purpose of you releasing frustration and sexual tension.”
“I have a lot of shit going on in my mind and honestly the only time I get to relax and not think about work is when I’m with you,” he let out a defeated sigh.
“Chan…” you weren’t sure what exactly to say.
“Let me finish. I know I work too much and I’m moody most of the time. I'm really stressed with work because I don’t exactly know how to balance my work and life separately. You’re also the first girl I have been with since I got my heart broken. Give me time to figure this out. I want more with you, but I need some time to process everything. I need you to be patient with me,” he looked at you with a look as if he was begging you to give him time.
“Alright,” you reached out and lightly touched his arm. “I need for you to try to give me some more emotions.”
He nodded his head as he reached for you. He engulfed you in a hug pulling you tightly into his chest. You felt him press his lips to the top of your head.
You honestly wanted more from Chan then just casual sex, but you weren’t even sure if you were having that anymore. He made it seem like he wanted more with you but he wasn’t sure on how to have it.
“What happens now?” You asked as he still held you close.
“We’re gonna try to be more. I just need you to be patient with me,” he slowly let go of you. There is a silence that takes over the room as you stare at each other for a long moment. 
You didn’t say anything, you just leaned up and pressed your lips to his for a gentle kiss. You pull away and star at him trying to judge his reaction. He smiles before pressing his lips to yours for a heated kiss. After this fight you had just had you really just wanted to kiss him. Your lips moved together and you wrap your arms around his neck pulling you closer to him. His hand rested on your ass while his other hand roamed your back holding onto you.
Quickly he started moving you towards the kitchen table. Without thinking he reached for your soft hips and sat you down on the edge of the kitchen table. 
He smiled at you for a moment as he stood between your legs. His large hands rested on your hips. Reaching up rested your hand on his cheek. This whole moment felt different than any other time. This doesn’t feel like some lust filled haze he’s normally in. 
Your lips connected again and you reached down to work on getting his shirt off. You knew deep down you shouldn’t probably sex but things felt very different between you. You could tell deep down he was trying to show you he cared. His movement didn’t feel as mechanical as they normally did. His movements just seemed to be filled with passion. His hands roamed your body as your lips moved together filled with hunger.
You pulled a part catching your breaths while Chan made quick work to remove his shirt. He bit his bottom lip and started unbuttoning your blouse. You stared at him with lust filled eyes as he took your shirt off. You took it as your cue to reach behind you and unclasp your bra. Normally when you had sex with someone you tended to feel self conscious about you body. You had a soft stomach that made you feel quite self conscious, but with Chan the way he would look at you he always looked at you like you were the hottest thing around. The second your bra was off he reached up with his large hands and started massaging your breast. You couldn’t help the moan that passed your lips as he started kissing your neck. His lips moved from the base of your neck and started moving towards your breast. Slowly he swiveled his tongue around your nipples that were peaked with excitement.
Leaning your head back in ecstasy at the feeling of his lips on your body. He pulled away from you, biting his bottom lip.
“Take your underwear off,” he groaned, reaching for the button on his jeans.
Jumping off the table you made quick work of getting your panties off and hiking up your skirt so that it was bunched up on top of your hips. Chan took this as his cue to rid himself of his pants and boxers. His erection sprang free and he just stared at you wide eyed. Hopping back on the table you reached your hand out signaling for him to come to you.
Your lips connected again roughly and you slowly reached down between you to stroke his length a few times. He rolled his head back and let out a groan at your touch.
Reaching between you he moved your hand away from his length and worked on lining himself up with your entrance. You stared into his dark eyes as he slowly slid into you. The feeling of him stretching you causes you to gasp. He stills in you to give you a moment to adjust. Leaning forward he rested his nose against yours. Even though you had sex often I don’t think I’ll ever actually get use to the feeling of him inside you. He’s thicker than anyone you’ve been with before. 
He put his hands on the table on each side of you and started thrusting. You leaned back staring at him as he held a steady pace thrusting into you. Chan knew exactly how to move his hips to drive you wild. You were kind of surprised when he leaned forward and roughly connected his lips to yours. You wrapped your arms around his neck pulling yourself closer to him as he rolled his hips into yours over and over again. Each thrust making each nerve in your body makes you feel like it’s a live wild. 
The whole act of you having sex felt completely different this time. You felt like he was more connected to you than he had ever been before. You raked your nails across his back. You couldn’t help but let out loud moans with every thrust of his hips.
“You’re so beautiful,” he groaned against your lips.
Him speaking caught you off guard. Normally while you had sex he wasn’t much of a talker. Normally all he would say would be a string of cuss words, moans and groans, occasionally your name would pass his lips.
“Cha-,” you moaned, leaning my head back in pure pleasure. You weren’t even able to say his full name. You were so caught up in the way he was making you feel. 
“Tell me what you need,” he said as he ran his hand down your side. His hand gripped your hips roughly.
You couldn’t bring yourself to speak. You were too taken over by pleasure. You closed your eyes, feeling your stomach begin to knot as you grew closer to the edge. You wanted to beg him to push you there but you couldn’t speak.
“Babe,” he moaned.
“Harder,” was the only word your brain was able to say. You don’t think you knew any other words other than his name.
Roughly he grabbed your ass and pulled you closer to the edge of the table. His lips started roughly kissing your neck as he roughly slammed his hips into yours. You ran your nails down his back holding him close to you. You knew after this his back was going to be scratched up and you were going to have hickeys all down your neck.
“Chan,” you shuddered as you hit your release.
His thrust got sloppy as his back tensed as you held onto him riding out your high. You knew he was almost there. He got a few more thrust in before it spilled inside of you.
He slumped forwards leaning against you as you held onto him. You didn’t say anything, you just held each other as you tried to catch your breath.
“You’re on the pill right?” he mumbled with his head resting on your shoulder.
You realized you were still attached, that he hadn’t even bothered to pull out, and you hadn’t used any protection. You had got completely caught up in the moment.
“Yeah,” you sighed. You couldn’t be more happy in that moment that you had decided to get on the pill when you and Chan started sleeping together.
Pulling away from you he smiled and slowly slid out of you. Reaching up and resting his hand on your cheek and tilting your face up gently so you were looking at him.
“Did you maybe wanna go out to dinner tomorrow?” he asked. 
You think this was his way of trying to prove to you that you meant more to him, and that he really wanted to work on some sort of a relationship between you.
He bit down on his bottom lip as he stared at you waiting nervously for you to respond. Slowly you nodded your head.
“I’m gonna put in a real effort with you.”
“That means a lot. I’m gonna be patient with you and we can take our time.”
Leaning in he gave you a gentle kiss on the lips. You knew that you might not have a normal relationship right now but maybe soon you could have more.

Tumblr media
Rounding a corner that went towards the stables I found the large stature of Sandor walking away from me. “Sandor,” I called softly. I had already been ready to burst but upon seeing his pained expression I burst into tears as I approached. “Sandor,” I cried again as I reached him.
He pulled me into his body as I began to cry. Eventually scooping up my legs as he sat down so I was set in his lap. I buried my face into his beard as I continued to cry. “I-I’m so-sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing, little one? I know you didn’t choose that.”
“I didn’t think you’d be in the room.”
“It’s okay, takes a lot more than that to break me,” Sandor said, hiding the fact that he was on his way to drink himself to sleep. Both because of what he had seen and to cope with the fact that he’d never see her again after tomorrow.
“It hurt,” I cried.
Sandor reached his hand between my legs, just gently grazing me. He pulled his hand back and in the dim lighting of the hall he could see blood coating his fingers. “I know it did,” he said softly, remembering her cries for Robb to stop. “But it’ll get better when you’re not in front of an audience.”
“I don’t want it to get better, I just want you.”
“I know, me too,” Sandor sympathized. As he held her, the princess’s head tucked under his chin, he mustered up the strength to say the next words. “But you’re going to learn to be happy like Cat Stark did. You’re gonna fall in love with him, have his children, and be the highborn you are. Now, I’m gonna take you to your husband and say you got lost because if anyone catches me with you in this state, only my head will make it to King’s Landing.”
“No,” I pleaded, realizing the finality of his words. “Please I can never love him like you.”
“Try to, little one. For my sake, try to,” he said before gently pushing me off his lap. As he stood up, he pulled me up from the floor. Once I was steady on my feet, Sandor leaned down and kissed me. Our last kiss. I savored it, memorizing how he felt and tasted. When he pulled away, he lingered a little. His large fingers gently brushed a strand of hair behind my ear, his hands still gently grasping my face. He stepped away from me with a sigh, heading down the hall.
I walked with him, silently. I kept my gaze focused on the floor, too devastated to act like the Lady of the North I was supposed to now be. When we reached my new chambers, Sandor knocked for me. Robb opened the door, still wearing only his pants. “Your bride got lost,” was all Sandor said.
Robb nodded. “Thank you, for bringing her here,” he said, stepping aside for me to enter.
I held myself tightly as I walked across the threshold into Robb’s room. “Take care of her,” I faintly heard Sandor.
“I will,” came Robb’s reply before the door shut. I observed the room, it was warm looking despite the cold. There was a fire crackling in the hearth, the stone floors covered by rugs, both woven and made from animal skins. Several candles and torches lit the room, giving it a warm glow and the bed was made, several warm furs piled upon it. A maid came out of a room connected to Robb’s immediately exiting into the hall without a word. “I figured you’d enjoy a warm bath, after tonight,” he mumbled the last part, almost as if in shame.
“That is kind, thank you,” I said, heading into the en-suite. My husband followed after me, stopping at the door as I stood by the tub.
“Take as long as you like,” he said before stepping back, shutting the door and leaving me alone.
I quickly disrobed, eager to be warm again as I slipped into the bath. I soaked into the warmth for a long time. I don’t know how long but long enough for Robb to come looking for me. I only snapped to attention when I heard him call my name. Looking over, I found him standing beside the tub. “Are you alright? I called for you several times.”
“Uh- yes,” I answered. “I was just uh thinking, I suppose.”
He nodded solemnly before kneeling beside me. “Look, I am aware you didn’t want this marriage and I’m sorry about the bedding ceremony. But I promise to be a good husband and I won’t force myself on you. I have a sense that you may be in love with someone else?” I just looked down into the water, my hands crossed over my bent knees. Robb’s gaze followed, reaching his hand into the water to grasp mine. “This water is freezing, little doe,” he suddenly gasped.
I once again brought my attention to the world, realizing I was in fact cold. Robb dropped my hands, going over to where the servant had left a towel. He brought it over, wrapping it around me as I stepped out of the tub. Quickly urging me out of the washroom, he sat me down on a fur rug next to the fireplace. He stood beside me, hovering, as if unsure what to do. “Yes,” I spoke, answering his question from earlier. “It is true, I’ve spent the last year loving another man but he’s gone now. And I have every intention of making our marriage a happy one, of hopefully growing to love each other one day. I see how your parents interact, I want the same for us. For my worst nightmare would be ending up like my own parents. I will just need some time.”
Robb grabbed a fur blanket from hi— our bed. He kneeled before me, wrapping it around my shoulders. “Of course,” he agreed.
~
The next morning I woke up alone in Robb’s bed, wrapped in both the towel and several blankets. Surveying the room, my trunk laid beside the door. Leaving the warm bed, I went over, pulling out one of the many warm dresses that had been packed for me. Before leaving the chambers, I went to the window, hoping to see the view I’d have for the rest of my life. It was just like any view in Winterfell, grey skies and miles of pine trees. But this window faced down into the courtyard as well where I could see three figures practicing with their swords. I recognized them as Robb, his brother Jon Snow, and Theon Greyjoy whom had been hanging around Robb at the feasts. Several of my father’s men stood around, watching them spar, a few occasionally joining in. Surrounding them were the bustling movements of servants packing up my family’s belongings as well as Lord Stark’s as he would be the new Hand of the King.
I stepped away from the window with a sigh before heading out, intending to find my mother and some breakfast. In one of the smaller dining halls, I stumbled upon Lady Stark and her daughter Sansa. “My apologies,” I said as I interrupted their conversation.
“No need to apologize, I was hoping to see you,” my new mother-in-law smiled. “Please, eat,” she said, gesturing to an empty seat.
“Well then forgive me for holding you,” I apologized, taking a seat. A servant immediately placed a plate and silverware for me. “I don’t normally wake up so late.”
“Once again, no need to apologize,” she smiled. “Robb and I both told the servants not to disturb you. You had a demanding night.” I smiled shyly as I grabbed a pastry from the center of the table.
“Is King’s Landing as dirty as they say it is?” my sister-in-law suddenly asked.
I smiled at her question. “The city is quite dirty, and loud. But as long as you don’t wander too far out of the Red Keep, you will be perfectly fine. And should you ever venture out into the city, bring a guard or two. If not for your protection but to make your day less overwhelming. The merchants descend like vultures when they see nobles.”
“Do you miss it?”
I pondered for a second. “In some ways, yes,” I miss Sandor, “I’ll miss the warmth. In some ways, no, I like that it’s quiet here.”
Sansa hummed before looking to her mother. “May I be excused? I have to ensure everything has been packed.”
Lady Stark looked at her daughter sadly before agreeing. As Sansa left, I spoke up. “It must be hard, first little Bran and now your husband and daughters are leaving? Not to mention you had already been forced to leave your family when you married Lord Stark.”
She shrugged solemnly. “It is my duty,” was all she said. “I’m sure your mother is pained to leave you here.”
“Between us,” I began, already finding more comfort in Catelyn Stark than I ever had in my mother, “I don’t think so. She’s always favored her fairer haired children. I was looking forward to joining your family, it’s a shame they’re all leaving so soon.”
“Yes, well, it gets easier as you start a family of your own.” I just hummed, unsure if I was ready for that or not. “Ned told me last night was a little rough on you, I’m sorry you had to endure a public bedding ceremony.”
I tried to not let my mortification show. “Yes, well, afterwards Robb was apologetic. I understand he didn’t intend to harm me, I know he is an honorable man. You raised a good son, Lady Stark.”
She smiles graciously. “Thank you, and please, call me Cat. How are you finding the North?”
“You certainly have quite the culture. The people here are all so… overwhelmingly loyal to each other. And I am not of here.”
“Yes, harsh winters do that to a community. I can’t help but feel like an outsider here too. Ned always tells me that I am of the North now, I’m sure Robb will tell you the same.”
Just then, a servant entered. “The Queen requests her highness in her chambers.” I gave Cat one last grateful look before following after the servant. As I approached Cersei’s temporary chambers, I could see the door was already open as servants carried her belongings out. But as I entered, each one left, the last shutting the door behind her.
“Mother?” I called as she stood, staring out the window.
“I heard you bled last night?” was all she said, not bothering to turn to me.
“Yes,” I agreed.
“Good,” she said. She finally turned. “We’ll be off within the hour, I trust you know how to behave like the Lady you now are?” She said Lady with disgust. She had gone from Lady Lannister to Queen Baratheon while her daughter went from Princess Baratheon to Lady Stark, an incredible dishonor in her eyes. She was angry at Robert for doing that to her.
“Yes.”
“Good, try not to cry the next time your husband beds you,” she sniped with a dismissive wave. I felt tears prick my eyes as I turned, leaving her chambers.
I made my way outside, finding the youngest Stark daughter swinging around a small sword in a deserted area. Upon seeing me, she stepped back in fright, dropping the sword. “Please don’t tell anyone,” she immediately begged.
“Don’t worry, I won’t. A woman with a sword is a powerful thing.”
“It is?”
I smiled down at the young girl. I prayed Cersei never got her hands hand on girl. “Women have brains, men have brawn. And men are terrified when women have both.”
“And what about men? Can they have both?”
“I’ve never heard of a man with much of a brain,” I laughed. “If I were you, I’d hide the sword before your mother comes looking for you to say her goodbyes.” Arya nodded, running off eagerly.
I continued on, finding myself amongst the men I had viewed from the window earlier. They parted as they noticed me, allowing me to obtain a view of my husband as he sparred with a guard. Spying Jon Snow I approached. “Your brother is quite the swordsmen,” I announced my presence.
He gave a slight bow, “Your Highness.”
I just waved a dismissive hand. “No need for titles with family. Besides, I’m no longer a princess, just a lady now,” I beamed. While my mother saw this change of title as humiliating, I was relieved to be released from that life.
“Well if you think Robb is impressive, you should see me fight,” Jon laughed.
Neither of us noticed the man approaching us. “Exaggerating your skills to my wife, aren’t we now?” Robb asked rhetorically.
“Well it’s not exaggerating if it’s true,” Jon laughed.
Robb just shook his head dismissively. “Ignore him, little doe. He’s known for his over-embellishments. I apologize for not being there when you woke. I had some things to attend to and some of your father’s men were getting a bit bold. Had to show these Southerners real, Northern toughness.”
“It’s quite all right, I don’t generally wake up that late.”
He looked at me sympathetically. “You had a strenuous night, physically and emotionally. It’s only natural you wake up a bit later.”
“I had breakfast with your mother. A lovely woman, really.”
“Yes, she is very kind. I hope you’re finding Winterfell to your liking so far. It will be much quieter by this evening.”
“Yes, I’m enjoying the quiet so far. King’s Landing is far louder in comparison.”
“Well I’m glad,” he smiled.
“Oi, Stark!” a voice shouted from across the field. “Are you gonna keep flirting with the girl or are you gonna fight like a man?”
“Go,” I said with a laugh. “Prove your worth.” Robb smiled once again, pressing a chaste kiss to my cheek before heading towards the new guard. Glancing around, I found the large stature of Sandor. I felt physically ill at the thought of him seeing my exchange with Robb. Roles reversed, my heart would shatter if I had to watch another woman kiss him or make love to him like last night.
I slipped back into the crowd, trying to covertly maneuver my way to him. Upon reaching him, I gently brushed my fingers against his arm. But he didn’t look at me, keeping his gaze on the sparring match ahead. “Sandor…”
“I trust your husband is treating you well?” he asked, his gaze unwavering.
“Uh-yes, Lord Stark is a very decent man.”
“Good, or else I’d have to cut off his head within his own walls.” I opened my mouth to say something but nothing came out. “I should’ve done it when you were begging him to stop fucking you.”
“Sandor-”
“I hope he treats you well, little one, I really do. But I don’t particularly enjoy seeing him put his hands on what’s mine.”
I sighed. “Well for what it’s worth, I’ll always be yours.” He just grunted in acknowledgement, still never looking at me as I walked away, dejected.

“Would you like to go lie down? Eat something?” I asked Cat gingerly. Ever since the maester had mentioned a small fever she had thrown everyone else out of Bran’s room so Robb asked me to go in as a last resort. “I’ll watch Bran, he’ll be in good hands.” She didn’t say anything. “It won’t be for long. Don’t wrack yourself with more anxiety, you should walk it off. I’ve nursed my brothers and plenty of soldiers back to health. I will send someone to fetch you should the slightest thing happen.” Cat stared at her son longingly before bursting into tears.
“I need him to be okay,” she sobbed repeatedly.
“But you are not okay. Worrying yourself sick without a release will do Bran no good. What will he do if he wakes up and his mother is too exhausted to hold him?” She continued to cry but this time she stood up, exiting the room. A guard outside met her, bringing her to her chambers. So I settled in her seat, observing the younger Stark boy.
A few minutes passed and Robb came in. “I was told you had managed to get my mother to rest. I am very impressed,” he praised. He went to the window, opening the shutters. The howling of the wolves, crying for their masters, filtered in the window.
“Don’t be so hard on your mother. First her son falls to what should be his death and then her husband and daughters leave.”
“I know but…” he suddenly became quiet. “Fire! You stay here, I’ll come back,” he shouted before running off.
Taken aback, I stood up, heading to the window. Amongst the darkness was a small, glowing blaze alight on a small structure. Turning my gaze away, I found a hooded figure standing behind me, in front of Bran’s bed. “You’re not supposed to be here,” he said. “No one’s supposed to be here.” Utterly confused and unnerved I barely had time to react as he pulled out a knife, stepping towards me. But by the time I had come to my senses he had me pressed against the wall, knife poised to slit my throat. I heard myself yell, my hands reaching up to block the blade. One was immediately sliced open but the other caught where his hand was wrapped around the blade and I managed to push his hand away enough to give me room to move. I shoved him backwards but he took me with him, throwing my body to the ground. But before he could finish anything a blur of brown and grey pounced on top of him, tearing at his throat.
“Thank you,” I whispered to the dire wolf as he settled on the bed, next to his master.
“Lady Stark I heard…” came the breathless voice of a guard as he observed the carnage in the room. Another guard ran in, having a similar reaction to the carnage. “Get Lord Stark,” the first ordered. The second complied, running off. “You’re hurt, my Lady.”
“I am alright,” I dismissed. I couldn’t help but think that Sandor would be proud of me for fighting back and keeping myself alive. He had been the one that taught me how to fight. Standing up, I went over to Bran, checking him. Careful to not smear my blood on him with my injured hand.
Suddenly Robb entered, out of breath. “You’re hurt,” he pointed out in shock upon seeing my blood soaked hand. He was best to me in an instant, taking my wounded hand gently. “What happened?”
“Immediately after you left I went to see the fire from the window. When I turned around that man was in the room. Said that no one was supposed to be in here before he attacked me,” I explained. “He tried to slit my throat but I caught the blade. He was about to kill me when Bran’s wolf saved both our lives.”
“Come, let’s get you to the maester so he can fix your hand and take your statement,” he said gently, leading me out of the room with an arm around me.
~
“Your Grace,” a servant approached the King as he sat eating, “a raven from Winterfell brought this.” Ned perked up at the mention of Winterfell. The boy held up a small roll of parchment.
Robert took it, unrolling it. Ned sat anxiously as the king read. “There was an attack on your younger son’s life,” Robert told his old friend. “He is unharmed but apparently my daughter took the brunt of the attack to protect him.”
“Is she…?” Ned trailed off, not wanting to utter the death of his new daughter-in-law and the King’s daughter into existence.
“It says she is alright, just a little shaken up and a nasty cut on her hand,” he grumbled. “So much for your son’s promise to protect her.” Ned stayed silent at the comment, knowing that Robb was surely kicking himself at the injury of his new wife. “Someone bring me The Hound!” Robert suddenly bellowed. “Tell him he’s going back to Winterfell.”
~
I was simply eating lunch, minding my own business when I suddenly heard shouts coming from outside. Peering out the window I saw a familiar figure riding in the gate. Several guards stood before Sandor, attempting to block his entrance. I knew that this would not end well if this altercation became physical so I rushed down the stairs and outside.
As I approached the bickering men, I found my husband observing them. He was far enough away that he wouldn’t disturb them but close enough to intervene should he need to. I was still decently far away when Sandor suddenly jumped from Stranger’s back, unsheathing his sword. As the guards began to attack, I ran towards them, screeching for them to stop.
I was so fixated on Sandor I didn’t even notice Robb until he had me caught around the waist, blocking me from reaching them. “Sandor! Stop! All of you stop,” I screeched but they ignored me.
Seeing how desperate his wife was, Robb finally spoke up. “That’s enough!” he yelled. “As Lord of Winterfell I order you to cease.” All the guards fell still at their Lord’s command, Sandor also falling still.
I ripped myself from Robb’s grip, going to my guard. “What are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be halfway to King’s Landing by now?”
“Your father sent me back. He received word of your attack,” he explained, taking my bandaged hand gently. “He wanted you protected, seeing as your husband failed at that,” he said with a pointed glare towards Robb.
Turning to him, I could see him clench his jaw at Sandor’s comment. “Lady Stark, a word?” I moved to approach him, Sandor following. “No, not the Hound, just you.”
“My orders are to resume my post as the princess’ sworn shield. Wherever she goes, I go.”
“I am Lord of Winterfell and you are on my land, speaking about my wife. I will decide on all matters related to her.”
“I’m here on your king’s orders, regarding the safety of his daughter. A duty you failed.”
“Enough,” I shouted at both men. “We will all go inside where Robb and I can speak in private.” Both begrudgingly agreed, Robb leading us straight to our chambers. He left Sandor outside his door before guiding me into the en-suite washroom.
“The Hound is the man you love, isn’t he?” Robb immediately demanded, fuming. I was completely blindsided, not anticipating that this is what he wanted to talk about. “You nearly ran into a sword fight for him. You could be dead if it weren’t for me.”
“Robb-”
“I tried to let him stay with you, I spoke up for him because I thought it would make this transition easier for you.”
“Robb please…”
“No, he’s not staying here. Your father is welcome to send another guard but I won’t be sharing our bed with a dog. You said yourself you intend to make our marriage happy and to try to fall in love with me. We cannot have a happy marriage with your dog constantly nipping at my heels.”
I stepped closer to my husband, venom coursing through my veins. “Send him away and I will hate you forever.”
“Try me,” he growled. “You will either grow to love me or your disdain will eat you alive. I accept the fact that you loved someone before me, I am giving you time, but I do not need to offer your lover room in my home or a place in my bed.”
“Fine, send him away, but I beg you not to tell anyone. They will have his head if they knew.”
Robb sighed, observing his wife's desperate expression. “I won't. We will speak later tonight,” he said before storming out to send Sandor away. I stayed in Robb’s room until I was sure they were both gone. I could never bear the heartbreak of seeing Sandor as he was sent away. I also couldn’t stand the thought of sharing a bed with Robb tonight so I went to one of the many guest rooms, setting up there.
I managed to stay there all day without being found. It wasn’t until night fell and I was intent to go to bed that the door opened, revealing my husband. I sat up from my comfortable position on the bed. “What are you doing here?”
Robb began stripping off his clothes until he was only in his trousers. “You are my wife, I am your husband, we share a bed,” he declared, sliding into bed next to me.
“My parents don’t share a bed.”
“And you said your greatest fear was ending up like them.”
Defeated, I huffed, laying back down. I turned away from him but his arm wrapped around my waist and he pulled himself closer so his body molded to mine. “I’m sorry I sent him away but I know you understand why I did it. Would you rather we continuously hurt each other by bringing others into our marital bed? I love you, little doe, I won’t let our marriage become merely a bargaining tool.”
I stayed silent, reflecting on his words. I did understand why he sent Sandor away, our marriage could not be happy with a third person in it. Understanding but still angry, my hand found his, the one that he had slipped below the pillow underneath my head. Upon feeling my grasp, Robb nuzzled himself further into me, the arm around my waist squeezing me tighter and his face finding its place in the crook of my neck.

Inspired by Battle of the Larynx by Melanie Martinez!
Warning: smut (fingering), toxic relationship, ANGST (yk i fucking live that shit), neglectful Miguel, LONG ASS CHAPTERS
MINORS DNI. AGELESS AND MINOR BLOGS WILL BE BLOCKED
Tumblr media
You knew what you were getting yourself into when he told you. You knew the nights that laid ahead for both of you filled with his crying and screaming after a failed mission led to a loss of innocent life. You knew the days would consist of hours holding your breath wondering if he was alive or not, and finally exhaling when he arrived there at your doorstep; battered and bloody but still, he was there. That was really the only promised you asked Miguel to keep— be there. You could handle him leaving randomly and not coming home until 2 in the morning, it was his obligation as a hero and that came before anything else. But he also took an obligation as your partner to be present when it mattered most, and according to him he cherished that concept with his life. So if that was the case why wasn’t he here now?
Miguel had been gone for 5 days now, longer than he’s ever been gone for. Five days of nothing, no calls, texts, emails, even an owl with a note would’ve sufficed at this point but he chose to leave you in the dark yet again. You touched up your mascara in the shiny elevator door reflection as you prepped yourself for the celebration party you and your art school classmates planned after you all landed the animation internship. What was supposed to be a chance for your friends to finally get to know Miguel was clearly turning into yet another evening third wheeling other couples. Another night of watching girls curl up with their lovers while you downed a spiked lemonade to forget about yours. This was the 26th time Miguel had abandoned an important event with no notice whatsoever (yes you’ve been keeping track). It started with simple things like picnic dates or small get togethers, then his absence gradually became more impactful. Missed family dinner’s, birthdays…anniversaries. Disappearing for days on end with no check ins, it was becoming torture. It was becoming increasingly obvious that people started to question whether or not you even had a boyfriend, and slowly you did too…
To Miggy 🧸:
please tell me you’re coming tonight, you know this means a lot to me Miguel
4:23
can you just call me and let me know youre alive at least????
4:49
i hope youre chaffing in your suit asshole
8:14
The elevator door opened letting you onto the top floor of Alchamex, it was pointless checking but you always did anyways. You crept your way into his office hoping to see his usual tired figure slumped over in his chair, ready for you to nag him like you usually do to take a break and eat something, but the only thing occupying the space was scattered papers. You looked through his window that towered over the Nueva York city streets trying desperately to hold back the tears that were fighting their way out.
“Y/N?”
Y/N: “Jess! Im- Im really sorry.” You turned your head only slightly so she couldn’t see your puffy eyes.
Jess: “Y/N, you’re part of reception you know you can get in a lot of trouble being up here without authorization.”
Y/N: “I know I know I just…I thought Miguel be here.” You mumbled between hiccups that came up from you failing to hide your sobs. Jess wasn’t stupid, it didnt take a genius to know what you were upset about, or who you were upset about, “If you um… if you see him can you just ask him to come home please.” Working through your sniffles, you wiped your face with your sleeve and made your way out of the office before she even had time to respond
Jess sighed feeling a twitch of anger brew inside her towards the young man, she scowled and muttered obscenities under her breath as she dialed Miguels number…
Tumblr media
The next week came and you missed the party entirely, the calls from all your friends and colleagues went unanswered. Honestly, your self esteem couldn’t take another embarrassing, lonely entrance into an event that Miguel was supposed to accompany you too. Another endless night of sympathetic looks and pity hugs. 
The clock read 7:48 pm when you arrived home from work, another day of taking calls and booking meetings for a man that wasn’t even there half of the time. With a heavy sigh you set the bags of groceries you had in hand down in order to get your keys out of your back pocket. The space was dark and cold when you walked in, it had been for the last week. You stocked the fridge with your new groceries then before taking a quick shower and finishing your nightly routine. You were in the middle of applying your night cream when you heard a loud thud causing you to finally leave the bathroom. In the corner of your eye you caught a glimpse of a tall dark figure emerging from the window. You let out a shriek managing to fumble everything in hand as you scrambled to find your pepper spray.
Miguel: “Woah woah! Relax it’s just me! it’s me Y/N!” Usually you’d be used to Miguel’s late night window entrances but it had been so long since you last saw him you forgot he even did it. He turned on the living room light revealing his tired and bruised figure. He was still dressed in his spider suit, the suit you excitedly spent hours on your ipad drawing and redrawing to get the perfect design; now you hated the sight of that thing.
Y/N: “Miguel?”, seeing him gave you relief knowing it wasn’t an intruder, but the anger that’s been stirring in you for the last 2 weeks slapped you back to reality. Silence filled the space between you two, neither of you taking the initiative to speak first. It took 2 weeks for him to come back and you weren’t going to wait another second waiting for him to find the balls to say something.
Miguel: “Y/N please wait!…” he pleaded when you turned away and slammed the bedroom door behind you. You plopped down onto your mattress, you were exhausted and couldn’t stand to look at his face anymore, but you felt the empty bed space behind you dip with his weight.
Miguel: “Congratulations on your internship cariño, I knew you’d get it…” No response. “I…I got this for you. Y/N?” If you turned around you’d see the small gift wrapped box he held in his hand but you were motionless. This new silence terrified him. The possibility of you finally giving up on him made his heart sink a little
Miguel: “Y/N I’m really really sor—
Y/N: “Just shut up Miguel, shut up already…” you finally spoke through gritted teeth, “You’ve never cared about a single thing that I care about, if you did then you would’ve been there like you said you would but you weren’t! SO JUST FUCKING SHUT UP!” you sobbed and curled your legs closer to your chest
Miguel: “I know you’re angry at me… but Y/N I really am sorry. I’m sorry that I didn’t call you or text you. I’m sorry it took Jess calling me to make me realize how terrible I was being. I should’ve been there to take you to your friends party, like I promised I would. I wanna be someone you can count on and trust but I’m screwing it all up.”
At this point Miguel had already stood up from the bed, you could feel the floor thump as he paced back and forth trying to find the right words to say to you. You couldn’t help but peek over at him, he looked horrible with his head in his hands and blood and dirt still caked on his suit. Regardless of how angry you felt towards Miguel you always took pity on the poor man. He loved you with everything he was and everything he wasn’t, all he wanted was to be everything you ever needed, but you were the first woman he had ever been with since Dana and Gabriella passed. You knew loving you was like learning to walk again.
You called his name in your soft voice. His head shot up, you were finally facing him with your arms open inviting him in for a hug. Miguel practically jumped from his seat and into your arms. Words couldn’t describe how good it felt to feel your touch and even though he smelled like ash and rubble you felt exactly the same, practically crying as you melted into his hold
Y/N: “I thought you were dead Miggy, you can’t keep putting me through this I can’t take it.” He settled deeper into your embrace and rested his head into the crook of your neck
Miguel: “I know, I’ll be better for you…” You felt his lips latch onto your neck and pepper you in small kisses, “I love you Y/N. I love you so much.” He groaned against you, pushing his stiffened member against your groan and pulling out a desperate moan from your lips
Y/N: “I…I love you too Miggy…fuck!” You screamed has he drove his thick fingers into your already soaking cunt. Every curl and thrust against your plush walls pushed you closer and closer to your edge.
You cried against his shoulders. There were times when the space that was wedged between you two felt infinite then dwindled every time he came back home to you.
It was euphoria, to feel him with you again.
But every high has to come down at some point.
The sound of arguing pulled you from your sleep. It was 2 in the morning when you rolled over to see a space where Miguel was originally sleeping beside you. It wasn’t unusual for Miguel to wake up in the middle of the night to work at the kitchen table or yell to Jess about some other spider variant that messed up a mission; one named Peter seemed to come up very frequently. However it seemed like this specific conversation went on for a fairly long time, you could even begin to here Miguel’s voice shake with whoever he was speaking to.
You slipped on a new t shirt from Miguel’s drawer since the clothes you previously had on had been ripped to shreds. His voice became more and more clear as you made your way down the hall
Miguel: “Do you already have an idea on who it could be?…Fuck. Okay, I’ll *sigh* I’ll be there soon.” He hung up and pinched the bridge of his nose in a mixture of frustration and disappointment.
Y/N: “Youre leaving again aren’t you?” Your voice startled him out of his sulk.
Miguel: “…Jess suspects there’s a spider variant that’s purposely letting anomalies run loose in other dimensions. I have to handle this Y/N...”
7 hours, it took 7 hours to fall into the same old routine. It was honestly amusing at this point, all you could do was laugh. How stupid you were to think things could be any different. How stupid you were to think that HE could be any different.
Y/N: “Are you fucking serious?!” You shouted
Miguel: “Y/N Stop it, not right now please. I need you to just go back to bed and let me—
Y/N: “Let you what?! Let you leave me and come back anytime you find it convenient? How long are you gonna be gone this time Miguel, a month this time? Do you even care about the promise you kept to me? Or do I even cross your mind when you’re out there dimensions away from home playing hero for everyone else but me? This isn’t a hotel Miguel, this is our home! At least that what it fucking used to be!” You fumed. He towered above you but that didn’t stop from getting in his face, “It’s not fair Miguel! You don’t get to leave me alone for weeks and come back and fuck me thinking that’ll make it all better! You have to be better!”
Miguel: “You need to stop acting like you’re the only person in my world that needs my attention! I’m not a monster for putting the safety of the multiverse first. Im sorry I can’t be here to rock you to bed and give you a kiss goodnight all the time. Sometimes we have to put personal matters on the back burner Y/N, it’s called responsibility!” He gathered his phone and the rest of his belongings off the kitchen table
Miguel: “I have enough to worry about as it is, having you and Jess blowing up my phone to go to some party with people I don’t even know doesn’t he—
Y/N: “What?” Your tone was softer and started to become laced with hurt, it was evident in the way your voice started to shake, “Jess called you that night and it took you a week to come back?”
Realization of what he just said settles in and it makes his brows furrow in frustration and both himself and you. When he looks over at you with that same stupid emotionless face he always has you can’t help but boil with anger. His nonchalance towards your problems made you curl your fist until your knuckles turned white
Y/N: “No you’re not a monster, but you are an ASSHOLE for making me believe you could balance work and me! Why are you even with me if you can’t—
Miguel: “This conversation is over, I have a job to do and youre keeping me from doing it.” He cut you off harshly, dismissing your concerns yet again.
Y/N: “I never asked you to sacrifice your obligations! I said from the beginning that being a hero comes first, just make some goddamn time for me now and then! Why Miguel? Why do I have to beg you to see my family at Christmas?! Why do I have to beg you to meet my friends or give me an ounce of attention?! Why do I have to ask you to care about me?!”, This was frustrating him too much, your lack of understanding was infuriating. Miguel had to leave before he said something he might regret. He turned away from you and your manic sobbing and made his way to the window seal without another word, afraid that he might damage things worse than they already were by speaking
Y/N: “If we switched places I wouldn’t DARE treat you as terribly as you treat me—
Miguel: “WELL YOURE NOT ME! YOU SIT AT A DESK AND DOODLE ON A FUCKING COMPUTER! YOUR CAREER IS A JOKE, A CHILD COULD DO WHAT YOU DO. YOU CONTRIBUTE NOTHING TO THIS WORLD, I DO.” His nostrils flared and his eyes burned red with anger, “SO DONT YOU DARE SPEAK ABOUT MY LIFE LIKE YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT, WHAT IVE HAD TO SACRIFICE JUST TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT IN THIS WORLD!”
Y/N: “GOD. YOU ARE SUCH A CUNT!”
Miguel: “AND YOURE A REPLACEMENT!”
Miguels eyes widened and his rampage instantly stopped. You couldn’t believe the words that had just left his mouth, and honestly he couldn’t either. He didn’t mean it at all, he wanted to take back those words as soon as the left his mouth, he just wanted to leave. Why didn’t you just let him leave? He wouldve been right back. The air was thick and uncomfortable, your combined heavy breathing was the only thing filled the space between the two of you.
Miguel: “I…I’ll be right back.” There was a shakiness in his voice and in his movement when he stepped out onto the fire escape.
Y/N: “Dont come back. If you leave tonight…don’t come back Miguel.” You spoke in a tone barely above a whisper
Miguel: “We’ve said things we don’t mean…I’ll be back later to fix things.” His suit integrated onto his body and he leapt off of the building ledge. A blur of blue and red was the only trace he left behind.
The truth was out now, how Miguel really felt towards you. You were never a first priority or even a second or third, you were nothing but a soul to fill the space where something else was missing. His wife, his daughter, you never tried to stand in their place or become what they were to him, but now you knew that’s the only reason Miguel kept you around. You were his vice
Your heavy cries carried throughout the apartment as you laid in bed cradling the maroon cardigan that was in the gift box Miguel got you.
Tumblr media
The spider society headquarters was empty and calm, but the office at the top floor was anything but. Miguel sat atop of his hovering platform brooding in silence in front of his computer monitors, It’d been like this since he arrived. Miguel was always stern and reserved, he never held a conversation with anyone other than Jess or Lyla so him being fairly quiet was normal. But for Miguel to not say anything at all was strange, and it didn’t take long for others to take notice of his behavior shift since leaving your apartment
Margo, Peter, and Jess were the last people at headquarters, after a long day of interrogating potential rogue variants the crew was finally successful and able to apprehend Spiderman on Earth-3360. What will happen to the young man wasn’t decided yet but catching him was a cause for celebration. The group sat around the cafeteria table sharing empanadas and Soju for a few minutes before they went back to their own universes
Margo: “Yeah Ive been in his office all day with him and Lyla and he’s barely said 2 sentences, he wasn’t even mean during interrogation. It’s like he didn’t have it in him to yell. I think he’s depressed or something.”
Peter: “I thought he was always depressed, that’s like his thing isn’t it? That’s why he’s not funny.” He joked and finished off the last empanada
Jess: “I don’t know but I need to get home, my back is killing me and I can’t deal with The Grinch any longer.” She said taking letters hand to help her up from the chair.
The group said goodnight to each other, Margo logged off and Jess went home to some much needed rest, honestly this line of work seems too dangerous for a pregnant woman. Peter made his way up to Miguel’s office, who he knew could hear the entire conversation thanks to his enhanced hearing.
Peter: “You know they’re right Miguel…” he shouted up to Miguel who was brooding on his platform
Miguel: “About what?” he asked in a condescending tone
Peter: “About you, you don’t think we’ve noticed you moping around all day. Do you wanna tell me what the deal is so you can stop pouting?” he swung onto the platform and took a seat next to Miguel, crossing his arms and sitting firm in place waiting for Miguel’s response but he was met with silence, “Is it the rogue variant? Cuz we’re not gonna let this happen again…”
Miguel: “No.”
Peter: “Miles? Gwen? Ben?”
Miguel: “No it’s none of them.” He turned his attention away from him and focused on organizing the handful of papers on his desk
Peter: “Then what is it? Is it Y/N?”
Miguel: “Did I say anything about Y/N?! Why even bring her up?!” He snapped, it was exhausting having to work and act like every terrible thing he said wasn’t weighing on his mind. Miguel couldn’t even interrogate the variant with losing focus, having to have Jess switch him out is gonna remain one of the most embarrassing points in his Spider-Man career. Peter was never a first choice for a sounding board, but it was only going to get worse for Miguel if he didn’t turn to someone for advice, because Lord knows he was terrible at handling relationship problems on his own
Miguel: “I said something bad, really really bad Peter…” he confessed. He took a seat in the chair next to him
Peter: “Do you wanna be more specific?”
Miguel: “I told her that her career was a joke. Then I called her…a replacement.” Peters eyes widened, he knew Miguel was capable of harsh words, he’d seen it first hand with Miles but this was unexpected. Especially with you, the girl he fawned over and practically stalked at work until you made the first move.
Peter: “Shit, Miguel. That’s really messed up…Did you mean it?” He asked
Miguel: “No of course not! I didn’t mean any of it, I was just frustrated. I’m not the bad guy for prioritizing my duties! She just wasn’t listening Peter, she wasn’t understanding any of what I was saying or where I was coming from. I didn’t mean what I said.”
Peter: “So why did you say it?!” Peter exclaimed
Miguel: “I DONT KNOW!”, He slouched over in his chair and cradled his head in his hands, his own words made him sick to his stomach. How he urged to tell you how guilty he was for what he said, for never being there, for making you feel like you didn’t mean anything, “I just wanted her to be quiet, everything she was saying was right but it made me feel guilty and awful. I wanted to make her feel worse than I felt. God I’m so fucking dumb…”
Peter: “You know I’m not good with this, it wasn’t long ago that I was a sad piece of shit too with a partner at home who basically couldn’t stand me. That being said, I also know that when it feels like nothing you say can make up for everything you said, and you said A LOT, maybe too much. I would never say something like that, that was insane…”
Miguel: “Peter…” he said through gritted teeth
Peter: “Sorry sorry, that being said when it feels like there’s nothing you can say that could make up for everything you said, a simple apology means more than you think it does. A real apology Miguel.” Peter looked at him, he didn’t need words to know that Peter was basically tell him to finally get his shit together.
Miguel: “What if she doesn’t accept it?”
Peter: “She will if you mean it…”
Passing buildings were a blur to Miguel, he was racing home so fast he couldn’t even focus on anything around him. While he swung from structure to structure he planned out every single thing he’d say to you, how he’s sorry for failing you in this relationship and he’d change for the both of you. He even tried to remember if there was still cinnamon in the spice cabinet so he could make you your favorite comfort drink, champurrado.
Miguel soon landed on the fire escape outside your apartment, you made a habit of leaving the curtains open for him so he could see if you were up or not and now it was an involuntary part of your routine. He peeked inside and saw you sleeping peacefully on your bed, hoping to come join you he tried to open the window but it wasn’t budging.
‘Had you locked it on purpose?’ He thought to himself, no you couldn’t have, you always left in unlocked for him. But when he saw the book you had used to block the window from being moved he panicked. Miguel knocked on your window, frantic and desperate
Miguel: “Y/N! Y/N! Unlock the window!” He pleaded. His knocking stirred you out of your sleep and you sat up in your bed, your puffy eyes on full display. When you finally looked over at him you were emotionless just as he was to you, it terrified him seeing you look at him with no longing or affection
Miguel: “Let me in…please cariño”, he begged
You were so tired, you were so tired of wondering why your boyfriend left you to question his love for you and now after tonight you know why. You stood face to face with him, the window still a barrier between you and him. It ate away at you but you couldn’t stand another night asking yourself why you weren’t getting the love you deserved. You had your answer and you didn’t need Miguel around anymore, not if you were going to be another substitute for what was missing.
Miguel: “Y/N…Y/N please wait!—
You closed the curtain in his face and went back to bed but it didn’t stop his knocking and pleading, begging for you to let him in and mend what he broke. It continued for an hour until you were convinced he eventually gave up and left. Him being gone finally gave you a chance to break down once again into your sheets, but Miguel sat on the fire escape listening to every choked out sob and hiccup you let out. Every painful cry the he caused you and now he wondered if he’d ever be able to fix it.

Distraction
Riri Williams x FEM reader
Tumblr media
Summary: A tipsy and rather talkative Riri Williams catches you crying in the bathroom. One thing leads to another but you two can't seem to leave each other.
Riri pushes the bathroom door open and gasps as she sees the tears streaming down your face "no what's wrong? Don't cry you're too pretty to be crying you want a hug?" The slur in her voice is a dead giveaway but she comes in and closes the door behind her. "No I'm good" you say as you wipe your face she nods and hugs you anyways "nah it's okay I'll give you a hug. You need a hug." You burst into tears more when you feel her arms around you it all just comes out. Every problem of the day and especially every problem tonight. "It's okay let it out" the bathroom door creaks as it opens again "get out!" She yells her words slurring the door slowly closes. You told her everything despite not really knowing her she just hugged you and let you cry it all out.
After a good hour she finally let's you go you just look at her and shake your head "that's embarrassing" she smiles she's obviously not as drunk now but she still has that slur in her words "that's embarrassing? I don't even know your name" you laugh as you wipe your face with tissue and sit there on the floor "Y/n y/l/n and as you know my girlfriend cheated on me with my best friend" she looks over as if this is new news to her...was she not listening this past hour? "who's your girlfriend?" "No one now" she nods as she just watches you. "You want to go home? I could give you a ride." You smile but to be honest that's the last thing you wanted "no I want a distraction." Riri hums gently playing with your hands "like wha-" you gently press your lips to hers tasting every bit of alcohol she's had tonight. She pulls away hesitantly as if she doesn't truly want the kiss to stop "I'm a bit off my ass you're a bit off yours maybe we shouldn't do this" you nod but neither of you move her hands are still holding yours and your faces are still barely inches apart. You both close the gap between each other as you climb onto her lap your dress hiking up your thighs as her hands find their way to them. "Just distract me for tonight and tomorrow we can forget each other." Riri isn't one to forget about a lover but if that's what you want she'd do it in a heartbeat forget about you. She nods as she pulls your dress up and lets her fingers hook into the crotch of the underwear she gently taps your slit. It was sad she had to forget by tomorrow because this night was going to be one for the books.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One thing about you you will never let a bitch see you broken hearted and in your feelings so when you show up to your next lecture there's no sign of heart break. Your hair is done, nails are done, and your outfit honey let's say the god of heartbreak couldn't tell you were heartbroken. Although still in pain and having cried right before you left your apartment you just couldn't get her off your mind Riri Williams not only did she comfort you last night she distracted you per your request she took you home and even vowed to forget about the whole thing. If you weren't in the situation you were in you'd be willing to give your all to her but you can't right now you have to heal. Your mind has other plans though as soon as the lecture ends you're running to her dorm and knocking she opens it with an attitude "how many times do I have to tell y'all I have a website no- oh shit" she pulls you in and closes the door. "What the hell are you doing here?" You shrug "I go to class here" she sighs "not that here! Like in my room here and wow you look amazing."
You smile at her compliment "thank you I clean up well so this is your room?" Riri just stands nervously "what do you want? You say you want me to forget but it's very hard to forget when I had your pussy on my tongue last night and you randomly show up in my room." You blink rapidly and turn your head "wow someone definitely didn't forget anything" you point out the obvious and she cocks her head "I can't forget I don't want to forget but you're making this really hard showing up in my room." My dreams you swallow all of your past feelings and approach her "I think I might like you" she raises her brows and you can clearly read her face "dead ass?" You laugh "yeah I mean not because of what happened I mean you're very good at that...but you were sweet last night. You comforted me while you were drunk off your ass. You held me for what seemed like hours without knowing me then you took me home without questioning anything or what we were." She looks at you with wandering eyes full of questions like what the hell is she getting on about? Has anyone ever cared for her? Do I care for her? And one comment she's so fucking broken. "That's what people do" you laugh sarcasm laced in it "no it's not that's what you do. That's why I want you to be more than a distraction. Date me." She laughs "one hookup and you want to date me?" You drop your bag on the floor.
"Do I look like I'm joking? Because I'm not. Be more than a distraction for me please I asked so much of you last night but today I want all of you and I'm not asking." She can't help but smile at your confidence and your persistence "okay movies tonight seven I'll pick you since I do know where you live." You're honestly more surprised than a teen finding out she's with child. This was supposed to be a bit more complex like trying to beat a boss level in a game you've never played.
"Tonight?" You ask with a nervous smile "what? Changed your mind already?" You shake your head "no of course not just didn't expect that okay I'm going to leave before you change your mind or I remember just how much you saw of me last night and get embarrassed again... Okay good bye." You grab your bag and book out the door faster than Speedy Gonzales. Riri just stands there smiling to herself she was hoping this would turn out better because her attachment for you may have started that night but it sure as hell didn't end that night.
A/n: oh yeah I like this one also look at our wife in them damn cowboy boots I want her and the shoes what target are they available at?

Silver - Father? Is Something Wrong With Me?
After reading the translation for Silver’s Dorm SSR I had the sudden urge to write this small fic here- mind you, there will be minor spoilers contained in this tale.
𝕃𝕖𝕥’𝕤 𝕤𝕖𝕖 𝕟𝕠𝕨, 𝕀 𝕓𝕖𝕝𝕚𝕖𝕧𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕥𝕒𝕝𝕖 𝕘𝕠𝕖𝕤 𝕒 𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕥𝕝𝕖 𝕤𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕝𝕚𝕜𝕖…
Tumblr media
The sun set below the horizon of the Sage Isle, by now all students were supposed to be in their dorms preparing for their nightly routines and supper. Silver had just finishing up a sparring match in the courtyard with Sebek- earning the impressed gazes of his peers who once looked down on him. He felt better about himself, well, almost better. The pain of not fitting in pained his pure heart, the agony of never being able to argue back when he was scolded for just being himself. It began to take a toll on the boy’s spirit but as always, he hid his feelings deep within.
But not tonight, for he had enough, he just needed to see his father. The unbearable urge to just leap into Lilia’s awaiting arms and cry tugged at him as if it were chains. Silver was not normally one to just run to his father and cry, he barely cried, even as a child. However, he did let the dams break once in a while, now was that time, the perfect time. He quickly prepared for bed, taking a shower and drying his flawless silver hair, clothing himself in some soft pyjamas and some comfortable slippers all before setting off to his father’s bedroom.
Upon approaching the room, he could hear the rapid clicking and tapping of his father’s controller and the occasional curse word of being in an in-game battle. He sighed and knocked on the door, hoping his father would open.
Just inside the room, Lilia could hear a faint knocking sound- he could already sense who was outside and that something was not right. Immediately, he turned off his game and went to the door, opening it to see Silver standing there with sadness and pain in his eyes.
“Silver? My child, what’s the matter? Did something happen?” He asked softly, bringing his son inside his room, closing the door behind him. “Oh my sweet baby boy…”
“Father, I-I’m sorry for interrupting your gaming but…”
“Nonsense, child! As your father I put you first, you are still my baby even after all these years, Silver, now tell me what’s wrong… Seeing your beautiful eyes with such anguish worries me.” Lilia replied, placing a loving hand on Silver’s face, stroking his cheeks as he has done since he was a baby.
“Is there something wrong with me? I know every pediatrician I’ve seen in my younger years and every doctor has said I am perfectly healthy why do I still fall asleep randomly? I’m different, father, I’m not normal… because of this I get scolded continuously for my laziness by my teachers…”
Tears began to fall from his aurora eyes, it broke the old fae’s heart seeing his son so distraught- it was the feeling almost every parent gets when their child cries and pours their soul out to them. Absolute heartbreak.
“Professor Crewel yelled at me earlier today, I hid my true emotions but- but it just hurt so terribly, father! It hurts to always be picked on for whatever this condition is! I cannot help it, I have no control… I’m powerless…”
Those words struck Lilia’s heart like a sword, he knew the professors could be hard on his boy but he never imagined that it would be so emotionally damaging to him. Since Silver was a baby, Lilia knew he was different but not in a terrible way- it was a good different. Silver was the light that old man needed in his life- sleepiness and all.
“Silver, I want you to listen to me well, you are not powerless, I did not raise a powerless young man- I raised a fine, kindhearted, protective, honest, and true knight. This sleepiness you have may be a pain to you, absolutely, but it is what makes you who you are.” Lilia replied softly, bringing Silver into a hug and held him tightly, pecking soft kisses on his head and cheeks. “I would never have you any other way! Besides, I have always loved my baby boy for who he is!”
“What if I still miss my lessons because of this sleeping issue? I just can’t take the scolding anymore…”
“You leave that to me, the only one that knows I am your father is Crowley- so I think it will be quite fun to let the secret out to your professors~ Kufufufu!” Lilia smiled. “Silver, my sweet child, I can feel that you need a good cry- so let it all out, as always, Papa is right here- as he always will be…”
Silver waited a few seconds before unleashing a pained cry into his father’s shoulder the same way he did when he was smaller. Lilia only whispered reassuring words of comfort and petted his son’s soft, silver hair, occasionally kissing his head in between words. He never seen Silver with such pent up emotion ever in the 17 years he had raised him, it truly broke his old heart into millions of microscopic pieces. Silver always walked about with his signature poker face but only those who knew the boy well could tell his true emotions- but this? This was a whole different level to Lilia.
Eventually Silver felt himself grow tired, his tears being reduced to just sniffles and small sobs, but never once did Lilia loosen his hold. He gently guided Silver’s head to his pillow and grabbed his bat throw blanket to tuck him in. Lilia began to hum a small Briar Valley tune to help Silver sleep peacefully, slowly but surely he fell into a deep sleep. Lilia kisses his head and lay down next to him stroking his hair, soon enough another knock came at the door and the smooth, deep voice of Malleus sounded.
“Lilia? Might I come in?”
“Yes, child, come in in~” Lilia whispered in response, just loud enough for Malleus to hear.
The door knob turned and in entered Malleus who now wore a worried look on his face upon seeing Silver resting with tear stains on his face. Did someone dare harm the human child he helped raise?
“What happened? Was it a nightmare? Was it someone at school?”
“It was Professor Crewel again, he scolded Silver once more for his sleepiness… it breaks my heart, Malleus, he cannot control his condition- it takes him by surprise and has nearly killed him before. But to hear that he has been the center of constant scolding for it…”
“It pains you as his father, I know. What are you going to do about it? Surely the professor would listen to a parent?” Malleus replied, using magic to clear Silver’s face from tear stains.
“I sure hope so… I know Crewel simply does not understand what Silver is going through but I may have to step in and talk to him. You and I know very well this situation has only worsened for Silver as he grew up… Malleus, I am beginning to fear the worst.”
Malleus sighed, he knew all too well what was happening to Silver and how his condition worsening would affect him in school. “Should I accompany you then? I have been with Silver since his infancy, I can provide my own experiences.”
“No need, just leave it to me, it’s time I stepped in and put an end to this situation. It is a father’s duty to protect his child- even if it simply informing a professor.”
—————
The Next Day - Saturday
Lilia awoke to Silver stop dozing off next to him, he did not have the heart to wake him up so he simply let him sleep in despite the fact he would have slept in regardless. He quickly wrote a note for Silver just in case he awoke and he was not around and a second one for Malleus to stay by Silver as he slept so no one would wake him- not even Sebek.
Lilia hurried out of the dorm, making sure to use magic to send Malleus his letter he left in a flash. Only seconds had passed before he made it to the potions lab, he opened the front door and walked in, making his way to the bicoloured haired man who sat at his desk grading papers. He looked up to see Lilia and sighed, nothing involving that Fae was ever good. Especially when his trickery was known well amongst the staff.
“Vanrouge, is there something you need you forgetful mut?”
“Oh how harsh~! You should not speak to an old man such as myself so harshly you know, shock can end one of my age~” Lilia replied back with a crack of his old back.
“Then what is it? I know you did not simply come here to yap like a chihuahua. SPEAK!”
“It’s about Silver… My son…”
Crewel was speechless, this whole time he was under the impression that Silver was an orphan- his papers had no parent to contact, no surname and his birth records were, to put it lightly, a mess. Never once did he expect to hear this to his face.
“Silver is your son?! How much did you have to bribe that old bird to hide that information?!” He yelled in surprise, truly not wanting to believe the fae in front of him. “Vanrouge, you have done many tricks to the staff before and I will not tolerate one of this scale-”
Lilia held a hand up to signal a pause, holding up the adoption papers and some pictures of when Silver was a newborn. “You see? I would never lie about my child. I may be his father but you must understand why I kept this a secret. Now onto the matter at hand please.”
“Y-yes, of course. What is it?”
“Since the day I first held him in my arms I knew something was different about him- nothing terrible, goodness no, but there was something. That something would be his sleeping condition. Through his years he has seen many different doctors and all say he is fine, I’m his father and I know when my baby is not fine. His condition has only worsened- falling into a deeper sleep than the last. There were times where it has taken me hours to awaken him…”
Crewel’s eyes widened, never once had he expected to hear this information. “Pardon my asking but was he cursed? I realized such sleeping curses have only been told in our history books but hearing you talk about his condition in such detail makes me wonder.”
Lilia sighed and shook his head. “I have wondered myself but I sensed no magic on him when I first cradled him- I suspect he was born with it. So I ask you, please go easy on him, this is beyond his control. I understand your frustration, I do, but he cannot help it..”
Crewel sighed softly, looking into Lilia’s eyes for any grace of a lie but he found none. “Alright, I suppose I can go a bit easier on your puppy, and I will make sure to speak with him about our conversation.”
Lilia nodded with a smile and bid the stunned professor farewell.
—————
Later that evening in the teachers lounge…
“YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT YOU KNEW TO, TREIN?!”
“Quiet yourself, Divus! That boy sleep talks enough for me to get bits and pieces of who his father is- I also caught him addressing Lilia as ‘Father’ more than once.”
“I knew to, my friends on the other side be tellin’ me all ‘bout their lil secret!”
“So I was kept in the bloody dark- I see how it is!”

when i think about the first iteration of mcr, i get so angry. i hate that artists have to sell themselves only to be ridiculed for self-medicating, experimenting, or straight up leaving. they can dry their tears with their capital etc i know but how well-off someone is is a big assumption to make. artists are exploited by labels, management, press, distribution, production all the time. artists are not the one percent because, unless they have significant executive-financial power, they are workers. physical workers supported by touring more than record sales.
mcr’s history doesnt upset me because it’s special. tv and magazines exploited everyone and everything. social media today does the same thing. i focus on them because they starkly abandoned this kind of advertising. they were The MTV band, The MySpace band, The Kerrang! darlings. the most ive seen from them when this tour started was a short promo video. a few podcasts (which seemed to be more about ls dunes than mcr). beemer photos. tonight’s our night. lmfao. when photos of a condom in a parking lot is yur “advertising”, it is no advertisement. it’s just dumb fun.
i guess the biggest promo was the new song. and isnt that special?? people are excited for what you want to share. they dont need to see your face every second. they delayed that tour TWO YEARS!!!! a decade ago, they were constantly criticized for delaying their fourth album. that progression and confidence and proof of vitality is so crazy. what’s it say that theyve emphasized their JOY and PRIVILEGE to do this tour on THEIR terms, and they have done ZERO PROMOTION. i randomly started mcr june 2022 on a whim. if there’s a reason to believe in god, it’s that after a lifetime of ignoring them, i finally gave them a shot a week before really needing them.
maybe theyll do promo if they put out a new project. looking at paramore and fall out boy, theyre doing interviews and awards performances and social media promo. ls dunes is doing a lot of press. i understand why artists do it. i understand why fans enjoy it. i kinda do as well. but i enjoy hearing it from them with no middle man far more. like the break up letter, the “let the sunlight in” story means so much because gerard just wanted to share it. so he did.

Caroline please I need your favorite Shakespeare quotes
I love Shakespeare, and this guy I’m talking to wanted my favorite quotes? I could only think of two on the spot, and now we’re trading quotes for fun facts and I’m a nervous girlie who can’t think of any more.
Help me remember some bangers please? I think we generally have the same taste 😭💛
Specifically jokes you think translate well to modern audiences (even the dirty jokes are fair game, he thinks toilet humor is funny 😭)
But I’m also interested to hear your overall favorite quotes, if you’re willing to share!🌟
ohhhh what a good question!!!
this isn’t a joke or anything but my favorite shakespeare quote is calibans speech from the tempest
Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises, Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not. Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices, That, if I then had wak’d after long sleep, Will make me sleep again; and then, in dreaming, The clouds methought would open, and show riches Ready to drop upon me; that, when I wak’d I cried to dream again. (III.ii. 130–138)
really i just love all of the tempest though and i would venture that it has the highest number of my favorite quotes. "oh brave new world that has such people in it," "we are such stuff as dreams are made on and our little life is rounded with a sleep," "where the bee sucks there suck i," "let your indulgence set me free," i love the language in the tempest so much.
hmmm in terms of funny quotes i always love to quote this RANDOM line that enobarus says in act 1 of antony and cleopatra that i came across in college and so of course i would just drop this into conversations whenever i could:
"Mine, and most of our fortunes tonight, shall be drunk to bed." (I.ii.46)
don't ask. i just read it one day and i never let it go because i am annoying like that.
OH i also love the as you like it one where jaques is like "i think rosalind is a dumb name" and orlando goes "there was no thought of pleasing you when she was christened" which just always makes me laugh bc like first of all jaques shut up who asked and second of all that's another one that i love to quote that one to people when they randomly announce they don't like things. i'm just like well there was no thought of pleasing you when [xyz happened].
umm another funny one is in romeo and juliet right before the queen mab speech:
Romeo: I dreamed a dream tonight Mercutio: So did I Romeo: Well, what was yours? Mercutio: That dreamers often lie (I.iv.548-551)
i just love him like yes tear him to shreds mercutio. (and then romeo coming back with yeah LIE IN THEIR BEDS dumbass like i love them) but romeo and juliet is like the tempest in that pretty much all the language is so gorgeous that it has a ton of amazing quotes. the most romantic one that i love is:
and, when I shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun. (III.ii.21-25)
but of course there's so many other romeo and juliet moments that i love. like their sonnet and the holy palmer's kiss, but soft what light through yonder window breaks it is the east and juliet is the sun, thus with a kiss i die, a rose by any other name would smell as sweet... you know them already but come on they're #iconic for a reason
there's a ton of hamlet jokes you could grab too. and there's some really good puns in much ado about nothing that translate pretty well to a modern audience, but i can't think of any off the top of my head.
hopefully that helped haha!! those are some of my favorite quotes but obviously shakespeare is so rich and varied and there's a lot more of it than i can mention in one post -- like there's so much you can find that is even less basic and boring than these ones... but those are some of my favorite quotes from my boy will

Find a way
Pairing: Arondir x Fem Human reader
Description: You and Arondir slowly fall in love after randomly meeting and becoming close friends
Tumblr media
Hold on what's the rush what's the rush we're not done are we? Cuz I don't need to change this atmosphere we're made of you can stay one more hour can you stay one more hour?
You and Arondir met when he was going to the tower of silvan elves getting lost on the way and ending up right outside your garden house in the Southlands fixing to fall asleep on the ground until you see him while he sees your lamp light fixing to continue on his way to find the tower until you stopped him just saying to him "If you need somewhere to stay you can stay with me as long as you need" leading to him staying a week with you until he found another elf at the tavern nearby taking him to the tower leaving you a thank you letter and an elvish jewel he carried with him deciding to give it to you when he noticed the jewels you collected from different cultures and places around Middle Earth.
You know I'm gonna find a way to let you have your way with me you know I'm gonna find the time to catch your hand and make you stay hold on I'll be here when it's all done you know
You nearly cried when Arondir came to your home one night after getting attacked by villagers bruised and bloodied composing yourself as you bandaged him until you were bandaging a wound on his side you couldn't help as tears formed in your eyes almost overflowing as you didn't look at him until he lifted your chin "I'm alright it happens sometimes" you shake your head putting your med kit away "It shouldn't".
Cause what's the point in chasing if I can't enjoy your face and we can't be wrong tonight can we be wrong tonight? You know I'm gonna find a way to let you have your way with me you know I'm gonna find the time to catch your hand and make you stay
You realized you had feelings for him when he stayed and took care of you while you were very sick while he had realized it the night he came to your home and you bandaged and patched him up crying at how people could not only treat each other but him just because of something he couldn't control or change of himself making him care even more about you just as you did him after you got well and thanked him for taking care of you even when he told you that you never had to but you repaid him with a calm and homemade dinner the next night he came over to bring you elvish sweets that he and some of the other elves in the tower made.
And if I was running you'd be the one who I would be running to and if I was crying you would be lining the clouds that would pull me through and if i was scared then I would be glad to tell you and walk away but I'm not lying I'm just trying to find my way in to you
He had seen pictures of you with a little girl in your arms thinking for a long time it was your daughter or niece until he found you crying holding a daisy infront of a picture of the same girl "She was my little sister...I lost her when I was 12 she was only 9..." his heart breaks seeing you so broken and vulnerable gently holding your hands "I lost a very dear friend of mine not too long ago...I still can't believe he's gone" you hug and hold each other telling stories of the two loved ones you lost and memories that were shared years ago until you both were just standing in the room holding each other smiling and laughing.
You know I'm gonna find a way to let you have your way with me you know I'm gonna find the time to catch your hand and make you stay I don't care what clothes you wear it's time to love and I don't care
The two of you were inside your home on a cold night infront of the fire when you both told each other how you felt for each other sharing a passionate and loving kiss leading to the two of you kissing each other's bodies making love for the rest of the night until you both fell asleep as the sky turned a light blue before the sun started rising and hour or two later.

it just wasn’t meant to be
Tumblr media
Summary: “If it’s meant to be, we’ll end up back together” is what Iwaizumi told Oikawa when they broke up ten years ago and the one thing that kept Iwaizumi from falling apart. But will that statement hold true when Oikawa returns to Japan ten years later with exciting news?
Pairings: Oikawa x Iwaizumi (part tense) | Oikawa x OC
Word Count: 3289
Warnings: Angst. Mentions of breakups and alcohol. 
AN: Santiago Pellegrini is an OC from my IwaOi omegaverse series (joor) - just minus the omegaverse traits lol
Tumblr media
February 2022
Iwaizumi wakes up, letting out a deep sigh as his hand slides around his nightstand, trying to grab his phone. His eyes squint when the screen lights up telling him it’s only 3:27AM. It has been like this – waking up randomly throughout the night – since Oikawa called two weeks ago, telling him of his visit at the end of the month.
The excitement of seeing his childhood friend has him like a kid on the eve of their birthday: too eager to sleep, eat or anything other than count down the days. Sitting up he tries to rub the sleep from his eyes, part of him worried about the reunion while his mind drifts back ten years ago.
*                      * May 2012
“Long distance doesn’t sound so bad compared to this.” Oikawa tried to laugh, but the words got stuck in his throat.
They weren’t breaking up because someone cheated or they stopped loving each other. In fact, both were sure they loved each other more in that moment than when they first started dating in their last year of junior high.
“We agreed this was best since neither of us know what our schedules will look like.” Iwaizumi gave his partner a reassuring smile. It had actually just been Iwa’s idea, the brunette had wanted to make things work long distance, but Iwa was certain that would only lead to them breaking up.
“But maybe we were wrong.” Watery hickory eyes look over at Iwa, but he’s met with the side of his head.
“I don’t.” Iwaizumi kneeled in front of Oikawa, reaching a hand up to gently wipe away a tear, “it’s hard but if we wait and break-up because of being too busy, it’ll hurt worse. Better to end things before we grow to hate each other.”
Logically, Oikawa knew it made sense, but emotionally he’s not so sure. “I could never hate you, Iwa-chan.”
“Wouldn’t it be better to never have to find out?”
*                      * The hot water relieves some tension that’s built itself in his shoulders. Letting out a deep breath, he wipes his hand across the steam fogged shower door, mind wandering.
It’s technically been less than a year since they last saw each other, but that time it was practically by chance. Running into each other outside the locker rooms, spending most of the 30 minutes dancing around awkward small talk. Despite their semi-constant communication via texts and calls, it hadn’t changed the fact that not only had it been nine years since they last saw each other, but since they had broken up too. The sting of a first love ending has a tendency to linger and those two were no exception.
He cuts the water off, taking a moment before sliding the shower open and stepping out. The cold air further wakes him up as he wraps a towel around his waist, a second towel is draped around the back on his neck. The water drops he leaves as he walks down the hallway would have his mother in a fit but he just shrugs it off, too worried about tonight to care about the flooring of his apartment.
Iwaizumi stares in his closet a bit too long for someone who typically opts to wear basketball shorts and a tee whenever he meets up with his friends. But he has plans for tonight, plans that warrant something more than gym attire so he places a pair of khakis he got for his last job interview and a dark navy v-neck shirt on his bed.
Choosing not to risk wrinkling his clothes for later, he walks back into the living room area wearing sweats he bought while studying in California and some random tank-top he can’t remember buying. There’s an audible huff when he flops down on the couch, leaning forwards to open his laptop that’s sitting on the coffee table.

It never ceases to amaze Iwaizumi how many emails he gets even when he checks his account regularly, though most were ones he could simply ignore. He pinches the bridge of his nose, already feeling the stress of everything getting to him; opting to ignore the emails directly related to his future. He’ll have time after tonight to deal with it, right now his focus was making sure everything went well when the four of them got together.
*                      * October 2015
Iwaizumi was sitting in his Kinesiology lecture, eyes focused on the powerpoint, but mind elsewhere. Three years of scheduling his own courses, yet here he was in an important class after lunch. He scrunched his brows, pulling his phone out of his pocket, confused at who would be calling during his class. He bumped his knee on the table trying to get up quietly, getting an unamused look from the professor and a few peers. He mouthed ‘I’m sorry’ before walking out into the hallway, answering the call.
“Hello?”
“‘Wa-cha!” The rest of the words were slurred, Iwa had a hard time understanding the tipsy dialogue.
“Oikawa? It’s like what,” he looked at his watch, confusion covering his face, “2AM over there.”
There was some sniffling on the other end, somehow overpowering the loud background noise from Oikawa’s end. The words sounded more like a whine than a serious question, “can we share a taiyaki?”
Iwa chuckled, remembering all the times they’d do just that as a way to make up after a fight. When he answered ‘of course’, there was an amused hum from the brunette. Abandoning his lecture, he walked outside to sit on a bench, his bag sitting between his feet, assuming Oikawa had done the same since the background noise on his end ceased.
It was awkward at first, neither really knew what to say, three years is a long time to go without talking to each other. Especially when before that, the two were inseparable, barely going 12 hours without interacting with another. There was also the fact they weren’t just friends that lost contact, but exes as well, making the tension encasing them a bit heavier. Though eventually it goes from silence to the two of them fumbling over their words before resting into easy conversation.
If the two hadn’t been friends for as long as they were, the words might have seemed like an overstep, but they don’t hold any malice, instead sounded like a friend checking in. At least that’s how Oikawa hoped they came across once they slipped between his lips: “Are you seeing anyone?”
“No. I’m not.” The lie fell effortlessly off his tongue. The truth was that Iwaizumi had been seeing someone for a handful of months, but things didn’t match up to when he was with Oikawa. In fact, in the few times he had dated someone since their break-up, no one made him feel anything close to what he felt with the brunette.
“I find that hard to believe.” He teased, though he meant every word. Maybe he was biased, but Oikawa felt, and still felt, that Iwaizumi was perfect in every way and anyone would be lucky to be with him.
Iwaizumi laughed, “well, what about you? Are you seeing anyone?”
“Oh yeah, like a whole volleyball team of guys.” Oikawa chuckled.
“Nice to know you’re still a smartass.” Iwaizumi noticed that Oikawa sounded a lot happier than he had the last time they talked. It had been six months after their break-up and the last thing he could remember Oikawa saying was that he was a lot more homesick than he thought he’d be and even considered going home. Clearly whatever happened since then had changed that.
“Always.” There was a slight smile in Oikawa’s voice, “but no, I’m not seeing anyone.”
Iwaizumi felt his heart flutter, a warm giddy feeling filled his chest. He hadn’t felt something like that since the first time he caught Oikawa staring at him back in middle school. Or maybe it had been way back when they were kids and a flustered Oikawa asked him to play volleyball randomly at the park.
The two sat and caught up about a few topics, barely even touching the surface of half of what they spoke on. Most of the conversation was about their families and the last thing they talked about three years ago that was outdated now. It wasn’t until he saw his classmates coming out of the building that Iwa realized how long he had been out there.
Something felt right as he walked across campus to his dorm, listening to Oikawa call his name if he was silent for too long before he mentioned details about tomorrow’s game - the one Iwa had already planned to watch.
If it’s meant to be, we’ll end up back together, he smiled, recalling the words he told Oikawa back in high school, realizing just how true they were.
*                      * Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
“Yes?”
“Is that really how you answer the phone when your best friend calls?”
“It’s how I answer the phone when you call.”
“Anyways,” Makki scoffs, Iwaizumi could tell the pink-haired man was rolling his eyes. “Are you still good for tonight?”
“Why wouldn’t I be?”
There’s a pause on the other end, “it’s just…well you two haven’t seen each other in so long. It might be hard or awkward or something.”
Iwaizumi reminds his former teammate that he not only saw, but did speak to Oikawa back during the Olympics, though he doesn’t mention just how brief their interaction had been. The brunette hasn’t bothered to think of things going anything but smoothly tonight because they’re Iwa and Oikawa after all. Where one was the other would shortly follow and sure, things were a bit different now, Iwaizumi knows they’ll always fall back into rhythm.
*                      * July 2021 - Olympics
Iwaizumi ran his fingers through his hair, rolling his shoulders a few times as he walked towards the locker rooms. Losing the Olympics was bittersweet. He had watched the Japan team train harder than most, watched them fight on the court, but them losing meant getting to see a bright smile on Oikawa’s face and that almost made it worth it.
He had hoped that he’d get a chance to see Oikawa this time around, more than just across the court, since he didn’t get the chance when the brunette was in Japan a little over two years ago. Back then Oikawa had mentioned coming back to their hometown for a few days which had excited Iwaizumi. However, his trip landed right in the middle of a conference Iwa had been planning to attend and despite his attempts to skip it, Oikawa told him not to worry and that he’d rather Iwaizumi keep his plans. It felt nice knowing that even after all that time, Oikawa still cared about him and looked out for him, though he never did find out why exactly the brunette made such a randomly scheduled trip.
“Oh, sorry.” A rushed voice said, having run into Iwa’s shoulder.
“It’s oka–Oikawa?”
The brunette’s head snapped up, an unreadable expression on his face. “Iwa…hey!”
It was awkward. Phone calls don’t make up for lack of face-to-face communication nor change the fact they’d spent years on opposite ends of the world. But seeing Oikawa caused something in Iwaizumi to relax, taking in how beautiful Oikawa still was even with shorter hair. They stumbled over each other, words awkwardly overlapped before they found some sort of rhythm.
For the short time they had together, things felt similar to when they were back in high school, back before things got all muddied and tangled together. Back before they made promises of forever before they knew just how heavy those promises were. Oikawa laughed and it was like music to Iwa, similar to an old familiar tune that you remember, but can never fully place.
The athletic trainer noticed that even with the span of years changing them, the brunette still has some of the same nervous habits he had as kids. He still anxiously twirled the ends of his hair between his fingers and bit the inside of his cheek, both which Iwaizumi found endearing. He wanted to reach out, put a comforting hand on his shoulder or even pull him into an embrace because he hated the unreadable expression on Oikawa’s face.
“There you are!” A husky voice called out from behind Iwaizumi, he turned to see one of Oikawa’s teammates. “Mateo’s whining that he’s about to die if he doesn’t get food.”
“Ever the dramatic one.” Oikawa looked back at Iwaizumi, “this is my libero, Santiago Pellegrini and this is my childhood friend/the athletic trainer for the Japan National Team, Iwaizumi Hajime.”
The two men exchanged pleasantries, both trying to subtly size the other up before Oikawa intervened.
“It was nice seeing you. C’mon Santi, before Mateo tries to snack on Pablo again.”
“It was nice meeting you, Iwaizumi.” Santiago gave him a pleasant smile, nodding his head at the athletic trainer.
“Likewise.” He watched as the libero guided Oikawa away, seeing two of their other teammates waving for them to hurry along.
A lump formed in his throat watching the four of them interact, it reminded him of how he, Oikawa, Matsukawa and Hanamaki were back in high school. He thought back to their post-game trips to the nearby ramen shop and how Makki and Oikawa always tried to out eat each other which just resulted in both getting a stomach ache. It was strange seeing Oikawa act in such similar ways with other people because so much of their lives had been intertwined for as long as Iwaizumi could remember, that it felt wrong to have parts that didn’t overlap.
He shook his head, trying to erase such somber thoughts when he heard someone call out to him. Iwaizumi turned around to see Oikawa rushing back to where the former ace stood, almost tripping over his own feet.
Oikawa threw his arms around Iwaizumi’s neck, shocking the both of them at his actions, but neither dared to say anything. The embrace lasted long enough to stir up all those emotions Iwaizumi tried to keep at bay, but too short for it to feel like other than a hug between friends.
“It really was nice to see you, Iwa-chan.”
And just as quickly as he ran into Iwaizumi, Oikawa was gone again, having dashed back down the hall. Iwa stood there, unsure if that had actually happened or was just some figment of his imagination, but those ten words played repeatedly in his head and he couldn’t help but smirk: if it’s meant to be, we’ll end up back together.
*                      * Iwa wouldn’t tell Makki, but Iwaizumi is a bit nervous as he walks into the restaurant they all decided to meet at. He runs his hands down the sides of his thighs, his anxiety has the palms of his hands sweating. He lets out a deep breath just as he finds the table his friends wave him over to, telling him that Oikawa should be there any minute.
“Why do you think he’s in town?” Makki asks, sipping on the beer he ordered, “I know he said he had something to tell us, but what could be so big he flew home to say it?”
“Maybe he’s transferring to a Japanese team.” Mattsun suggests, but Iwaizumi knows that’s not it; he may or may not have already asked around.
“Could be that he’s retiring.”
“He just played in and won gold at the Olympics, I doubt that.” Iwaizumi quickly dismisses his friend’s statement. There is no way Oikawa is finished with volleyball just yet. Sure, he may not know the setter like he did years ago, but he saw the passion and determination in his eyes and the way he played against Japan, no way he was ready to give that up.
“We can ask him.” Mattsun points towards ahead and Iwaizumi turns to look.
The brunette looks breathtaking in skinny khaki pants and a black turtleneck, the sparkle that filled his eyes when he finally saw Makki waving him over and the little pep in each step as he made a beeline to his friends. It’s all so familiar, so Oikawa.
Iwaizumi takes another deep breath, running back over his plan for tonight. He’ll wait until Oikawa makes his announcement, let them talk about whatever it is before he asks the brunette if they can talk outside. Regardless of what Oikawa tells them, whether it’s that he’s coming back home or moving to yet another country, Iwaizumi will promise to follow him there this time. He now knows that letting Oikawa go to Argentina alone was one of his biggest mistakes, second to thinking that they needed to break-up ever. And he’s prepared to tell all of this to Oikawa because he needs him to know he can fulfill all the promises he made when they were younger and any that they’ll make in the future.
“So? What’s so big you had to come tell us in person?” Makki asks and the three notice Oikawa looking down as pink dusts his cheeks.
“Oh, well,” he smiles a sincere smile before looking over his shoulder at the man Iwaizumi failed to see until now. “This is Santiago, my fiance.”
Iwaizumi doesn’t hear anything after that. The blood rushing in his ears makes it hard to hear the congratulatory statements from Makki and Mattsun. Fiance? Had he heard that right? That doesn’t make sense because everything had lined up for them to be together again, didn’t it?
Oikawa calling him drunk to rekindle their friendship and still being single, those were signs, right? Signs that they were meant to be together again. Signs that they were on track to finding each other again, weren’t they? It feels like cold water is dumped on his shoulders as he listens to Oikawa excitedly map out the timeline of his current relationship.
He hears how they first started dating five years ago after Santiago eventually wore him down by asking him out on a date every day after practice for six months. How the seemingly random trip to Japan Oikawa made in 2019 wasn’t so random, it was him introducing Santi to his family, noting that his mother was devastated when the two broke up later that year. Iwaizumi listens to how he missed a chance at the Olympics since Oikawa had been single there, that he and Santiago had finally been able to go back to being friends by then before making up about a year ago.
Then Iwaizumi watches Oikawa show off the engagement ring he’d been keeping covered for a big reveal and how his face lights up telling the three how Santiago proposed on New Year’s Eve just several weeks ago. Iwaizumi sees a happiness on the brunette’s face that he’s never seen before, watches as he effortlessly fits against Santiago and he realizes that not everything that falls apart can easily be glued back together when you’re ready.
Iwa excuses himself, slipping outside as he scrolls through his voicemails for a specific number while heading outside. He looks back one final time at Oikawa, accepting that the setter has moved on and that it’s his turn to do the same.
“Hello, is this Mr. Gordon? Yes, this is Iwaizumi and I was calling back to accept the position at Birtwistle University.”
