Taglist: @wwenhlimagines @hooks-martin @hookerforhook @cassie0sstuff @triscillal @sheinthatfandom @eddie-kingstons-wifey

Kenny Omega (During training)

Kenny heard a small crack and immediately picked you up

Does not allow you to re-enter the ring and takes you to the doctor

Looks up home remedies to help you

Understands that you’re angry and tries to figure out ways to relieve you

“Do you want a coloring sheet? No, I don’t think you’re a child- okay now you’re acting like one…Yeah-uh”

Tells you stories about when he broke his (I can’t remember if he did) or his friends broke theirs

He tries to distract you from the pain by his jokes or practicing promos in front of you

Will intentionally mess up for you to smile

Kenny’s really upset that you’re injured but tries to brighten your day by any means possible

Eddie Kingston (Your opponent intentionally injured you)

I feel like I always say this…..EDDIE IS BIG MAD

Eddie is big on respect…he’ll respect you as long as you respect him and those he keeps close to him

Once he saw the ref throw up the X sign, oh Penta and Fenix had to hold him back from going to the ring

Then he saw your bloody face….he started to cuss out your opponent

And then he cussed out Kenny and the Bucks for allowing someone with bad blood to go against you

Will drive you personally to the hospital cause he needs to lay eyes on you

He’s ticking in so much anger that you’ll need to calm him down

“I’m fine doll, I just hate how a shithead couldn’t contain their displeasure to themselves. On the bright side, you still looked like a god/goddess....betta than their hating ass”

Santana (You took an extreme bump in the ring)

You took a facebuster on the ladder and then bounced off, rolling outside of the ring

Listen, this man would be the one to stop watching your match just out of fear (he hates you getting hurt)

Like he physically cannot watch the match anymore

Once he saw blood dripping down your face, he automatically asked for the match to be stopped or at least for you to stop participating

When you come backstage, he automatically hugs you as he doesn’t care about the blood on his shirt

“Mi amor, you scared me out there…I thought I had to go jail while you go to the hospital”

You have to hold him back from cursing out your opponent(s)

Distracts you with food and cuddles (DONT @ ME)

Wheeler Yuta (Your opponent accidentally injured you)

Baby boy is sad

He just looks like someone knocked the wind out of him; he hates seeing you bleed

Is subconsciously mad af at your opponent

Will literally baby you for the rest of the day, week, month, hell even year

“You’re not gonna take any more knees to the face. I won’t allow it….NO BIG BOOTS EITHER”

I think he would be the one to buy protective gear for you while Bryan and Mox look on in concern as he picks up everything in the damn store

He thinks that breaking your nose limits all activity and movement for you

Will not let a minute go by without him saying how pretty you are (with and without a straight nose)

Hook (Someone was trying to fight him and they hit you)

Okay…… man is literally the devil

Will make sure that you are okay before tossing the person over his head

He is punching the shit out of them until he looks over at you and sees blood

Hook gives one more punch before carrying you to a safe corner

He immediately gets you ice before taking you to the doctor

Feels guilty about you getting hit, mentally beats himself up

“I’m so sorry that I allowed that to happen.”

I truly do think that Hook would feel so bad and will try his best to make it up to you in any way possible

Will buy flowers, bears, food, a nerf gun (whatever your heart desires)

Ricky Starks (You hit a door)

Imma be honest….he laughed at you

Like full-on cackled as soon as you made contact with the door (it sounded like an evil witch)

But stopped once he saw blood pouring down your face

Feels like a jackass as he brings you to the doctor (I also think he is saying sorry repeatedly)

Once he hears the word surgery, he offers to pay for it

As your spirit starts to pick up and you feel like yourself after the initial wave of shock

Ricky will go back to laughing at you

Will joke about your nose only when you're comfortable and accepting of the fact

“It’s not my fault you got your ass kicked by a damn door”

Christian Cage (A fan threw something at you)

He’s suing and kicking out the bastard who threw the object at you during the meet-and-greet

Tells security to get him and sends Luchasuarus for extra support

He immediately shuts down his booth and walks you to medical support

Sends a tweet that calls out people who think that was cool and okay

“You’re a disappointment, no wonder your father left you”

Holds you and whispers caring thoughts that only you can hear

Buys anything and everything you need (already paid for the surgery)

Offers to buy a security squad so you can protect yourself

[thatdeadaquarius]

Omg

Hey

Hey!

HEY!!

WHAT ABOUT GOD READER THAT GOT A CURSE PLACED ON THEM BY SOMEONE THEY DON'T LIKE

That curse makes them turn to random ages like,, one day you wake up and your like 3 and the other you're 29 and the acolytes just have to deal with it for a months (and just for funziz you don't keep your memories as a kid *evil laugh*)

I feel like people who are generally around kids would be great around us and some others .... Less so (*cough cough* ei)

AND EVEN BETTER

WHAT IF ENGLISH ISN'T OUR FIRST LANGUAGE AND IT SUMTGING LIKE FRENCH OR SPANISH, AND THE ACOLYTES ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE TEYING TO TALK TO YOU WHILE 14 YEAR OLD READER IS CURLED UP IN A BALL CUS THEY'RE SCARED LSKFJGJDLSK

let the tennage/ kid reader be neurodivergent/autistic (cuz i am and theres bot enough rep on this god forsaken app .·´¯`(>▂<)´¯`·.)

n E wayss <3

LOVE YA !!!!

Aka. your fave >:D kiss kiss

A KISS KISS??!!! FOR ME?!!! 😊🥰😚 <3

BRO i literally designed a whole original character around that concept lmao (except they remember/just body change/everything else kinda matches ur desc! :0 )

☆

Sun: Gender Neutral Reader (they/them only), Neurodivergent!Reader, Child!Reader, Teen!Reader

Planet: Language Shenanigans, Platonic

Orbit: Headcanons-ish, mini scenarios

Stars: Arataki Itto, Kuki Shinobu, ft. Kujou Sara, Ei + Raiden Shogun, Inazumans

no bc gif is me as a kid, bc I didn't experience snow until I was 12 💀 +it stayed for like one day, was 1 inch deep, or like 5 cm (for my non-americans out there), and was gone the next lmao- I was terrified when I moved and got REAL snowy days- jfc Snezhnaya would kill little me-

SO I was kinda stuck on this tbh, i usually default to like, headcanons or scenarios if ppl dont specify/im just adding onto what you already said like when its not even really a request u know?

so, uh tried to do headcanons, but idk how good it is Orah, sorry!

Also ik you mentioned as example, but we sticking to Inazuma, bc i feel like I neglect them lol

also i hope u like Itto 💀

♤

you quickly found out that magic obeys some weird type of logic despite being magic, so you only ever fluctuate in age within the range you’ve already been,

ur kinda glad youre not seeing what you look like at 100 years old and getting stuck that way for weeks- only Sophie from Howl’s Moving Castle can be cursed to be old yet has so much rizz that she’s still badass and pulls a wizard boyfriend LMAO

so just bc idk what to make the max,

let’s put you at originally, also bc im not a minor, 20 yrs old

so what I mean by all the above is: you’ve lived 2 decades, 1-20 are the only ages you can be

-that being said,

you’re a menace.

so yeah you could’ve been a quiet kid, a well-behaved kid, a good kid even,

…but not in a magical world full of awesome flora and fauna, and magical creatures,

and gods, and vision users and-

you get the point.

plus, you hadn’t really learned English yet until u were a bit older so (who can blame you i hate this language ur so valid)

and for whatever reason English is the only one these guys speak, besides maybe some mythical creatures like the aranara or something

so its kinda absolute chaos trying to reign u in at times.

so needless to say the entirety of Inazuma is terrified for you.

like, even if you aren’t the “Creator” per say in this, they still know what the warmth of your power feels like

But more importantly-

You know who’s the first to spot a random wandering-non-Inazuman-child? And take you in? Especially one that radiates that same energy of presence they feel sometimes + makes them more powerful???

The Amazing, the All-Powerful, Awe-Inspiring Oni: Arataki Itto!

Not even his gang, or Kuki are the first to see you, nah it’s Itto himself,

he literally finds 12 yr old you just sneaking around in awe in Chinju Forest,

and needless to say ur pretty fascinated with the colors and the vibes, and it’s not like Genshin Impact existed when u were this young, ur poor younger self is just rlly paranoidly looking around

Itto is kinda a lot at first, and he was a little confused by ur constant rubbing your arms, or tapping ur fingers on stuff, (or all the stims u be doing when ur nervous) but he just took it all in stride

so Itto, after like an hour and a few well placed rocks at his face and groin by 12 yr old u who was ready to fight to the death at first, FINALLY convinced you by drawing a little picture of his house and his friends

and all that clear effort, despite the foreign world, foreign non-human guy, etc., made you warm up to him too, afterall, even 12 yr old you knew a himbo when they saw one 💪

at first he just thought you were another person who was getting powered up by that yokai he felt (he was convinced thats what you were when u weren’t physically here before, like some kind of powerful gift giving/deal making yokai)

but after he saw you shapeshift the next morning into 16 yr old you, (he lives with his grandma so ur younger self felt pretty safe staying with a himbo guy and an little grandma lady)

he was now more convinced than ever-

that you were some kind of god that’s been in hiding since the archon war (his granny has a lot of cool stories so what?! hes a very educated oni thank you very much!),

rather than a vision user, and he also thinks u being random ages is deffo a curse, and its to keep ur powerfulness limited!! - Arataki Itto, 202X

(bc younger u doesnt remember that u can upgrade ppl, or at least it takes em a learning curve bc they gotta relearn everytime)

okay but itd be so funny tho if nobody else believes that (esp the non-magical folk), bc to them, ur just like, a bunch of siblings (child, teen, adult you lmao) or a tanuki lol

he eventually gets Kuki to believe, after she also sees how you change/the aura is honestly more powerful too once she’s paying attention, like instead of like a blanket, ur like standing in front of a raging campfire

but she makes him keep it a secret

ur really vulnerable a lot of the time, so they’re both worried abt keeping u happy and safe, aw cuties <3

◇

so yeah, ur literally just chillin with the arataki gang all the time now

the gang become ur besties no matter the age, like they love mild pranks, and general chaos, u wanna explore no matter the age, and also love chaos, esp since it can be magical now (oh child you is having the time of their life when they’re around)

its literally a match made in heaven

plus the more hands on deck, the easier it is to keep ur ass from running off as a kid (and an adult, bc omg a shiny?? a shiny crystal fly???!! lmao neurodivergent 🤝crow/raven = shiny solidarity)

honestly Itto has a blast with all versions of you, and he’s literally the best bc he’s a himbo:

so he’s fine with answering context or “obvious” questions all the time LMAO

and if he makes any conclusions abt ppl’s behavior u dont, he’ll explain pretty quick and simple and he never sees it as awkward or smth

its honestly kinda funny bc ur like 10, and just 🤨🤨🤨??? sometimes at ppl (u got better at reading ppl as u got older obv, and at english too, that doesnt help lol)

he’s super sweet abt it, just really quick which is great too,

“he’s irritated at the guard, not us!”

or “she’s relieved, not upset, don’t worry it’s all good!”

like, u never misunderstand ANYBODY with this Oni around!! <3

(this is mainly bc Itto’s gotta know when to bail, joke, stand his ground, etc. from experience, and messing w/Kujou Sara so he’s actually really good at reading people, only when he’s paying attention tho)

◇

so younger u just feels safe around Itto, and so while u do get taught english (mostly by his grandma/Kuki) u also dont rlly mask,

nor do u know how to mask as well as you do in the future

so ur just running around with the gang, living ur little neurodivergent life, and anytime someone points out smth u do that might be awkward, like repeating something over and over as a stim (esp with learning english phrases/new words at times) the gang and Itto, and Kuki, are all ready to protect 💪

but most of the time what happens is- whether unintentionally or not, Itto manages to make THEM feel awkward or like they’re the ones doing something socially weird all the time 😭

just, a parent is like “this kid can’t speak English, do they even know any other language? Because all I keep hearing is them repeating that sound over and over…”

Itto: “Damn you're right they do that a lot, just like how you peek out your window a lot, but we all got our quirks man, no need to be shy about it, the kid isn’t, so just open those curtains, and that window and look out at the world!”

which announces to the whole neighborhood, bc Itto is only ever not loud when you tap his arm as a signal, that the parent is the nosiest bitch ever, he just puts them on blast for everyone to hear lmao

◇

Itto is actually very respectful about you, and while it would, almost be easy bc of the age switching, for him to infantilize you, he’s really good at treating you like an equal no matter how old you are :0 :D

like a giant teddy bear older brother at times, and the guys and Kuki are all pretty good at it too

(tho dw, Kuki is doing all the emotional distress heavy lifting for all of them over your safety, esp bc when u switch at first u are VERY out of your element/disoriented bc u dont always recognize Teyvat/know less English)

but that being said…

Itto fucking loves your excited/happy stims!!!

You flap your hands? Ittos flapping his arms!

You jump up and down, Itto jumps!,

…with his full grown man self with MUSCLES, and causes a mini earthquake wherever you guys are- yknow a shop, the center of town, somebody’s house, near one of the guards 💀 (which always manages to knock them flat on their ass LMFAOO)

Or best of all, you do little stompy stomps??

ITTO DOES HIS STOMPS WITH YOU, like his idle animation does??? :D !!

DUDE- (/gen.n.)

u were like 8 at the time, and saw Kujou Sara for the first time, she’s looking all badass, mostly bc Itto pranked her and she’s power-walking toward u guys pissed as hell ready to arrest him, but u love it anyway bc shes so cool, and right as Sara gets to u two-

u start doing stompy stomps! And Itto joins!!

…and she’s shocked at first, but realizing how giggly and happy u two are, and then Itto explains its bc of her???

Kujou Sara lets Arataki Itto go, for the first time, ever.

she doesnt explain, but she literally was so melted by cuteness, and a warm familiarity??, by u two she couldnt be mad anymore lmao

Itto is now legally obligated to bring you to any and all matters involving the government, regardless of age, according to Kuki Shinobu, his grandma, and himself

all for different reasons tho, Itto’s like, “My lucky charm! My bestie goes everywhere with me!”

meanwhile Kuki/grandma: “A foreign non-Teyvatian speaking child/teen at times is more adept at keeping Itto in line than anyone else, or at least getting him out of the consequences 💀”

♧

Bonus:

The first time you see the Raiden Shogun,

She scares the shit out of 6 yr old you 😭

And she recognizes that familiar aura immediately, so shes just like:

😶😦😰

(You warm up to her after she offers to show you how she can summon lightning, Itto helped her lmao, and Ei also came out to keep u safe bc Raiden is a little… unaware… at times, of mortal limits, and now that ur in a mortal body-)

Also both of them unanimously agree to be the sugar mother to all ur hyperfixation foods/safe foods ever, SCOREEEE

◇

Bonus 2:

*KUKI WOULD LIKE THE COLLECTIVE CITY OF INAZUMA TO KNOW SHE DOES NOT APPROVE OF ITTO TEACHING U ENGLISH CUSSWORDS

☆

I hope somebody likes Itto enough to enjoy this, sorry if u arent a huge fan of him Orah! I just think he's annoying and neat, and havent written abt Inazuma enough lmao

I finally graduated college/uni by the way guys!!!

Ill actually have a life now that wont be hogged by homework! Like writing! Like drawing! Like anything but school!

Anyway, love u guys, another post coming soon,

Safe Travels Orah,

💀♒️

'i dont think Ares physically abuses his kids, mostly because i dont think he is present enough in any of his kids' lives to find a fucked up "reason" to hit them (i would not be surprised if the flinch and whatnot was from a sparring match gone too rough the last time they met tho)' Ares as that 'coach' dad who realizes their kid's failing at something and makes them do it over and over again while yelling until they 'finally get it right' makes a lot of sense.

The dad who's not abusive he's helping his kid succeed, he's teaching them what they need to know in this world, doing his job to train them up right.

Even if he's had them running wind sprints til they throw up because they lost a foot race to one of the unclaimed demigods.

this ask is referencing this post

lmao close, but that would imply that he was present in his kids' lives, which he wasnt (also, what youre describing is abuse. that is considered an abusive practice for coaches/drill sergeants/whatnot to do, that is considered an abusive punishment. its just also not Ares hitting his own kids, which i understand is what you meant, no worries lmao) but i do think you have the right idea! like Book!Ares would probably be upset about losing "battles" he percieves as important enough that a child of his losing would be considered a slight against him personally. my intent had been to imply "something affectionate of Book!Ares, like a friendly spar, probably would not have felt friendly". bc i dont think Ares would have let his kids win or gone easy on them (which can be a good thing and a bad thing. his kids are at constant risk of death through virtue of just... being a demigod, so giving them false confidence is bad. but also tearing their confidence apart would also be bad. i think for this Ares, the idea of letting his kids win would hurt his pride so he wont allow it. which makes it a lose-lose no matter what. i mean. this is the guy willing to fully square up against 12 year-old Percy Jackson afterall. again, age and relationship dynamics dont mean much to Book!Ares at any rate)

if i could have my own ideal Ares depiction in a book series, he'd be a good dad, at least a decent one. for reasons that would be a huge tangent for me to get into rn. but, alas, i did not write "Percy Jackson". so, we have what we have in Book!Ares and we will have what we have with Show!Ares. which, again, i do think is fine. all the gods have to be p shit people/parents in order for Kronos to convince so many kids (claimed and unclaimed) to come to his side, like they have to be inattentive if nothing else (which is why i resent a bit that Apollo is being backpedaled into a good dad. like. nah, Dionysus makes sense to make into a good/decent dad due to his exile demanding he be present in his kids' lives; and the Big Three, primarily Hades and Poseidon, being attentive makes sense because they barely have any kids these days; and the minor gods being good parents now thay they can openly claim their kids without fear of consequences for themselves/said kids also makes sense. but the remaining gods of the main 12 (so 12 minus the Big Three minus Hera, minus Aretmis = 7 remaining gods) have to ALL not be good in order to perptuate that whole toxic mindset of "glory = godly parental attention". i could understand the godly parents becoming better parents if they were in similar situations as Dionysus, like if Percy forced the gods to be more present in their kids' lives. which would, as i assume, change their personalities some as, like with the whole "our personalities change because we moved from Greece to the USA" enviromental bit would also imply the people they surround themselves with change who they are

(tho. uh. Greece was very famously bad to women. like. it legitimately sucked to be a woman in Ancient Greece, with the exception of MAYBE Sparta. theres a reason why people joke "yeah, the Ancient Greeks were cool with gay sex, not bc they were progressive, but bc they hated women that much". like their politics didnt allow women v many rights, if any, the most rights given being to women in Sparta but still. also they had a fucked up idea of "love" as a type of "uncontrollable insanity", it was legitimately described like an illness, which in retrospect explains all the SA in their legends (tho i am glad we do have some healthy depictions of love here and there). so. toxic masculinity did definitely exist there. i could talk ad nauseam about the debatability of how much toxic masculinity was in Greece and how much is it us projecting tho. think of Dr Emily Wilson. anyway, i digress. my point here has been "toxic masculinity/sexism existed there in sizable amounts, why should it change Ares so much now that he's in the USA"? to which the answer is: Riordan was an English teacher who was a hobbyist of Ancient Greek lore that went with what was in the public's pop culture osmosis knowledge of Ares at the time. its very recently that we have begun to question if that osmosis was correct. anyway.)

so, in the sense that who they are around will apparently change their personality: being consistently around their kids who just want good parents could force the godly parents to become good parents? its a stretch but i would accept it, personally, for the cathartsis wish-fulfillment of kids in shitty situations getting at least one good parent. which, many kids dont get to have at least one good parent (much less two or more good parents). think "Turning Red" and how it reflects a realistic mother/daughter dynamic that is unhealthy but morphs into a moment of reconciliation and cathartsis; giving us an example to strive for on what is healthy/how you should be treated and look up to for both child and parent's references. lots of kids will never get to have what Mei did, but it is so nice to feel that cathartic wish-fulfillment. and i would be so down for same that kind of cathartic wish-fulfillment to happen in "Percy Jackson" with its godly parents to the point that i truly would not mind that aforementioned stretch of logic it would take to get there. alas. (but that doesnt happen sO, RIORDAN, STOP BACKPEDALING AND TRYING TO MAKE APOLLO A LOVING FATHER, HE'S ONE OF THE SEVEN GODS THAT HAVE TO BE P SHITTY AND APOLLO WAS NOT INITIALLY INTRODUCED AS A VERY GREAT FATHER ANYWAY. but i digress). so i can accept Ares having to be a bad dad in order for the plot/war to make sense, in order to have representation that abused kids can grow/be happy in spite of their trauma, in order to show the problems with toxic masculinity in a father figure as well as shining a light on "hey, this is so prevelant in America that it became part of at least one of the gods' personalities", and so on. but i do want to make it clear that i dont like it. but one of the first things drilled into me in college-level English critiques is "it's not about what YOU would do if this was your story, its about the story in front of you and what the author wanted to achieve. have your criticisms be based on that, not on something that wasn't going to happen". so like, for Riordan's purposes? making each of those 7 godly parents bad parents in a different way is good writing that makes sense for his plot to work, and Ares being a bad godly parent in a rough and tough way makes sense. like, Athena is patronizing and thinks she is always right, meaning she doesn't listen to her kids. Aphrodite is emotionally manipulative to the point of being abusive and scary to her kids. and Hermes is so busy that he can't really be present for his kids, no matter what he feels personally, and then additionally feels like he is not allowed to interact with them directly when he does have free time. and Dionysus, the most present parent due to his exile, is shitty to all his kids' camp-friends by proxy, at minimum, which is very alienating if nothing else (again, we dont get to directly see him parent at all so far into the series that ive read. so idk how else he is a bad parent. probably is overprotective after having buried so many of his own kids this whole time? who knows). all of them are/have to be bad parents in their own ways (again, for the plot to work if nothing else) and it makes sense of Ares to be bad in THIS way

but yeah! that was just a very long-winded way of saying "if Book!Ares was more present to care about smaller things like foot-races or if this was something he cared about that was bigger than a regular foot-race, then yeah! youre right, he would be like that. because he kind of has to be". im just waffling about Ares' characterization bc i do agree with you but i just also wish Book!Ares didnt HAVE to be this way in order for the plot to work (and i am mentally slapping Riordan's hand anytime he tries to backpedal on what i distinctly remember as his original characterization of Apollo in the first series. bc if those 7 gods all have be different types of bad parents for the war plotline to work, then Apollo does not get special treatment to get to retroactively have been a good dad the whole time afterall). i am not excited to see show!Ares, but i am excited the whole thing about "Clarisse will never be enough because she is not his son" thing implies Clarisse will be on-screen more. and, again, i do super respect the decision to do this to Book!Ares' character. the representation aspect of a child of fatherly abuse still being able to grow/find happiness is also important (tho im personally just not excited to see as the "abuse" part of the representation as someone who is a child of fatherly abuse. but i will admit it is important! and it is good representation to have!)

and i do just LOVE Clarisse and will gobble up any crumbs of her im given. i really hope the show gives her (and Chris too! bc that is her future boyfriend lol) more screentime ♡

but yeah, to circle back, youre right on your chatacterization of him! and im glad you like how i understand and interpret Book!Ares to be like ♡♡♡ thanks for the Ask ♡

“Artemis!” Apollo yelled from the bathroom “What time do we meet the Weasleys?” He asked standing in the door way of her bedroom watching her do yoga poses from the book their aunt sent her room is Sirius’s childhood bedroom “uh… noon i believe” she said going from child’s pose to sphinx pose looking directly at him drying off his hair “you took aunty Altairs advice?” “Huh?” She tucked her toes under and rose to a raised plank going into downward dog “oh. Yeah. Its helping with the broken back pain, they say when they were going to visit again?” She asked going into a deep lunge and into warrior pose “they said Christmas but not to hold them to it. Rolf wanted to go to new york to visit his grand dad and grand mother.” He shrugged as she went into forward fold breathing out relaxing her shoulders “i hope i get to meet Newt some day. Big fan and all that” she sighed balancing on one leg “you give your boyfriend and his twin the thing you got him?” He asked she rose to mountain pose “hes not my boyfriend” she blushed laying on the mat bringing her knees ro her chest and rocking from side to side “but no. I was going to wait til we got to the leaky cauldron. Their just matching watches. With their names on it. It was cheap. Their Christmas gifts we got them were more expensive” “Not your boyfriend yet” Apollo jested “i dont think he likes me like that pollo” she sat cross legged facing him ending her practice with deep breathing “youve been saying that and you two are blind” he shook his head “are you going to sit with us on the train or are you sitting with Cedric and the rest?” She asked changing the subject “actually. I think me and Lee are going to sit with the Hufflepuffs” he shrugged “alright” she said rolling up her mat and putting it to the side “im going to help Kreacher, Dobby, and Prim with the animals shower and then we can head to the cauldron” she sighed walking passed him “i used all the hot water” Apollo said with a slight smile “of course you did” she shook her head in frustration “APOLLO! HURRY UP WE’RE GONNA BE LATE!” Artemis yelled “IM COMING!” He shouted running down the steps linking arms with her “is Harry going to be meeting us there?” Apollo asked “i havent seen him since we got him and Ron new clothes for school the twins Christmas gifts and his food.” He said as she snapped them to Diagon alley “if you want to go ahead to the leaky cauldron youre welcome too. I just want to stop at Florish and Blotts for our school book order” she said “and leave you alone? No way. Besides you carrying seven people’s books on your own? No. I dont want to face the wrath of Molly when she finds out we got Percy, Fred, George, Ron and Ginny their school supplies” He rolled his eyes sad grimaces at his sister “hey. Harry paid for Ron’s Ginny and His. So in reality, i only bought mine Fred’s and Percys. You bought yours and George’s school supplies. And a new Microphone for Lee. Plus Percy is Head Boy this year. He deserved something nice” she said walking into Florish and Blotts “hi, we’re picking up an order under Black, and Potter” Artemis said to the shope keeper “yes Artemis i know who you are” he smiled “youve only been coming in here every day for the passed three months” he chuckled handing them their supplies. “Were you anle to get that other thing too by any chance?” She asked “ah. The embossed dragon skin journal! Right right, its back here” he smiled handing her the book “thank you” she smiled “and since you spent so much here all summer, i threw in a few extra quidditch books for your friend” he smiled “thanks again Adam” they smiled as she walked out of the door

They walked into the inn to Hermione and Ron bickering “THATS NOT A CAT ITS A BLOODY MONSTER!” He yelled frantically “Ron. Its just a cat. The rat is gross anyway” Apollo said scrunching his nose “Apollo? Ron? Mione?” Harry asked walking down the stairs “hey Kid” Artie said launching herself on to Harry “i missed you little brother” “i missed you too “KIIIIDS TIME FOR LUNCH!” Molly yelled from the kitchen she quickly hugged Ron and Hermione along with Apollo who ruffled the two boys hair they walk in with Ron showing Harry the clipping “showing off that bloody clipping again there Ronnie” a deep voice called out from behind them she looked over to George who shot her a wink “I HAVENT SHOWN ANYONE!” He yelled back gaining a laugh from Apollo “oh no not a soul unless you count Tom” Fred said taking a seat next to her pulling her into a side hug kissing the top of her head “afternoon voice” he greeted “the day maid.” George continued squeezing between her and Harry “the night maid.” Fred jested “the cook” George continued “the bloke that came to fix the loo” “AND THE WIZARD FROM BELGUM!” George yelled they all chuckled “now now boys that’s enough!” Molly said sternly “eat up. So we can go get your supplies” she said “no need Mrs. Weasley” Harry started “we’ve had it all covered!” Apollo finished “please don’t yell at us if we didnt go behind your back you wouldve put up a fight.” Artemis smiled softly “we wanted to thank you for all that you do for us” Harry continued “would you guys stop talking like us! Youre not even a twin!!!” George said shivering “why?” “Does it bother you?” Apollo said following up Harry “and George. We are twins” Artemis and Apollo say together as she pulled out stacks of books and quills and floated them to their respective Weasley “Apollo bought George’s the little black box is from me Georgie, since i couldnt get you all gifts last year. i got Fred’s and Percy’s, Harry bought Ron’s and Ginny’s the little boxes are from me” she smiled sheepishly she looked over to Percy “open the red one first” she smiled he nodded unwrapping the dragon skin journal and matching quill embossed on the cover was Percy I. Weasley he looked up at her “its for your book you want to write. Bill, Charlie and I split it when they told me that you got Head Boy congratulations Percy, hard work pays off” she smiled “its beautiful Artemis, thank you” “ARTEMIS BLACK APOLLO SCAMANDER AND HARRY JAMES POTTER! THAT MUSTVE COSTED A FORTUNE!!!” Molly yelled “its not that big of a deal Mrs. Weasley” Harry said “we have investments it wont hurt us” Apollo insisted she dropped the conversation as they finished breakfast and most were off having their own conversations Hermione Fred George Artemis and Apollo were standing in a circle talking when Molly mentioned it again Artemis smiled and simply told her “we wanted to do something nice for our friends let us” he smiled at her “if you really feel bad we will take a home made birthday cake for our Birthday on January first or teach me how so i can make one for Apollo to keep up with tradition” she smiled up at Molly “but your birthday is the 31st youre eleven minutes older right?” Fred interjected “YOUR BIRTHDAY IS THE THIRTY-FIRST OF DECEMBER AND YOUVE NEVER TOLD US ARTEMIS!” Molly shrieked “even im OFFENDED BY THAT ARTIE!” George yelled at her in hurt “dont feel bad she didnt tell me either!” Percy crossed his hands over his chest “i didnt think it was important! Ive never celebrated MY birthday ive always lumped in with Apollo when mum was alive its just something we’ve always done” She looked down “yeah she always threw a fit when mum tried to separate the two birthdays ‘we’re twins we should do this together! We’ve done everything together!!’” He mimicked her 4 year old voice “THEN HOW DID FRED KNOW! Molly and George screamed together

“i knew too Ginny as well” Hermione said meekly “not helping Mia” Artemis said softly “WHY DOES FRED GINNY AND HERMIONE KNOW BUT NOT ME?!?” George asked putting a hand over his heart “hey. Chill out Forge Artemis isnt” “Apollo its fine” she cut him off she turned to face George looking at him hurt written on his face “i didnt think it was important information. You guys gave me my first Christmas and birthday gifts three years ago and i didnt correct you when you asked when Apollo’s birthday was you couldnt have known i was just happy someone thought to get me something that people saw me as a person and not as an elf… being seen as an actual person what do i care if i blow out candles a day late it doesnt matter to me. its all new im working on it im trying. Ive been seeing a healer. Once a week... it was just an ordinary day of chores before you guys made a big deal out of it.” She looked down “im sorry just dont be mad please” her voice breaking “youre in therapy?” Georges voice softened “youre the first person I told outside of Apollo Forgive me yet?” she said softly “guys. Voice only told me because she was talking about Apollo.” Fred spoke “she told me and Ginny because i found her and Apollo’s birth certificate in the library tucked away in a book i wanted to borrow” Mione chimed in “Mione let the four of them talk wanna help me with Hermes?”Percy asked she nodded “Artie” George said softly “im sorry i didnt say anything i didnt think it was important” she sniffled looking to her feet “ive never been important before” she looked down Mollys eyes softened George pulled her into a hug “i shouldnt have yelled at you.” He said simply letting her go “now whats offensive is that you two grew to tree size and i stayed the same height” she pouted she turned to Molly “i didnt know” she said softer anxiety filling her as she looked at Molly someone who she looked at as she did her mother Athena “please dont be disappointed” she said above a whisper nerves short firing heart racing “i was just going to ask what flavor cake” she smiled “Apollo likes chocolate” she smiled looking up excitedly she got bubbly and like how she usually is “he used to eat the entire thing when mum was here and hed get it all over his face mum would make us separate cakes and frostings because we’d fight.” “We only would fight cause Artemis would eat all the chocolate covered strawberries! She loves those bloody things more than she loves me and im her twin!” He rolled his eyes “she wasnt asking about me Lia girl” he smiled putting a hand on her shoulder “like we practiced with Martin” he whispered she looked at him “its okay. Im right here” Apollo reassured her “i dont like chocolate i prefer chocolate bars over chocolate cakes. I think it ruins the cake if its too sweet.. i” she stopped short flinching waiting for a cane to hit her for speaking her mind looking down “hey.. breathe, no ones gonna hurt you theres no canes. No ones yelling. No ones going to hit you. Youre fine im here. George and Fred are here too… its okay say what you wanna say tell her. She asked you. Our Mum wont be upset you know that” he cooed in her ear

“but its mine and moms thing i havent done it since mom…” she whispered to him “Artemis, its okay. You knew mum best do you really think that you loving Molly the way you loved her, the way you loves our mom, and wanting to do the birthday traditions with her like we did with mum would upset our Mom?” He asked she shook her head no “mom would say theres enough to go around and to be happy because love is the most important thing we have” she whispered to him “see. Now tell her. Just because Mums gone doesnt mean shes not here Artemis. Shes always here. Shes here because you loved her. And thats how she’ll stay. Once you love some one theyre never really gone. Tell her. Its okay” Apollo nodded to Molly Molly’s eyes widened Fred grabbed her hand and squeezed he released her hand when she nodded to Apollo and grabbed his hand “i like strawberry cakes… they taste better than chocolate they were my moms favorite…. My mom… shed make me this two layered cake with chocolate filling. And white whipped cream for frosting with chocolate letters and fresh strawberries on top.. it was like a giant chocolate strawberry she would sing me this stupid song and itd be something only me and her did.” she said barely above a whisper giggling at the memory “Mum would make me a stupid hat and Apollo a bib and take a picture before smashing both of our faces into the cake… i miss my mom” she sighed “its settled then. Strawberry for you on December 31st. And Chocolate for Apollo on January first” she smiled “you did great Artemis” Apollo hugged her kissing her forehead he looked to Molly and back to Artemis “go make them open your gifts.” He smiled at her /and the twins “THATS RIGHT!” Fred exclaimed “you got us a mystery box” George smiled “it better not be a prank missy” Fred said dragging her away they got her letter and her badge fell out “you got prefect?” George asked “i dont want to make a big deal out of it” she looked down “but you got prefect. This is great for us. Now we definitely wont get into trouble!” He said with a small smile “only if you guys get more than 3 OWLS this year” “nooooooooo” Fred said “wellp looks like detentions for you!” They shared a laugh.

They sat down on the train to Hogwarts she watched as the rain fell on the window of their compartment Fred and George were in an animated conversation about who to prank next when the door started to freeze over panic started to flow through her as a boney hand opened the door Fred threw his arm over her trying to block the black cloaked figure that came right to her face she could hear her mother and fathers screams as he was taken away she reached for Freds wand in his pocket it felt like a ton of bricks moving she thought of Fred sitting together playing her guitar singing pualena as he learned how to play her song their first kiss and once she got hold of the handle she gripped it tightly she wordlessly casted a patronus holding up Freds wand he looked at her in shock that she could control the black walnut wood with unicorn hair core as Ginny couldnt even use his wand they stared at her in shock as the bright white light flashed through their compartment landing on Freds shoulder nudging his face with its beak he chuckled “well hello to you too” he pet the birds head as it started to fly again pushing the black cloaked figure away disintegrating it and through them the bird flapped its wings looking at Artemis weakly she breathed out “save Harry and Apollo.. tell my little brothers i love them..” the bird flies away splitting into two as it took the direction of each brother George and Fred looking at her in shock when she passes out sinking to the floor “wh… what just happened” he looked down at Artemis kneeling next to her her clenched fist gripping his wand tightly unable to get it from her the compartment door opened and George raised his wand protectively standing in front of Fred and Artie Fred guarding her body “calm down boys, im the new DADA teacher.” They lowered their wands as he kneeled down by her feet “Artemis is that really you….” He whispered she slowly opened her eyes “how do…” George started to ask when her choked voice filled the cabin “dad…. youre back you… you came back for me… i waited for you… me and Apollo both waited…. Hes here… i missed you so much…can we… can we go home now? please?” as her vision blurs in and out tears streaming down her face Lupin smiles at her “no dear, im not your dad” Remus cooed brushing her hair out of her face “un……uncle moony?” he smiles at her helping her sit up “Naleopilimehana…. you look just like her… eat this youll feel better” handing her a piece of chocolate”boys help me sit her up” Remus said they nodded as fred grabbed her shoulders “Uncle Moony” she flung herself hugging his neck tightly tears streaming down her face he hugged her back “Pili, i need to breathe” he chuckled “but if i let go youre going to disappear and i’ll be alone again i dont want to be alone” she sniffled “im not going anywhere love.” He chuckled Fred grabbed her shoulders and leaned back Remus cupped her face in his hands and looked at her “now where did you learn that spell” he asked calmly “it happened the first time i held my wand. And whenever i think of a happy memory and point the wand up and my bird comes out” she said “thats not your wand Voice” Fred said she looked to him then down at his wand in her hand “oh… sorry Heart” she said handing him his wand back “you produced a corporal patronus using another wizards wand?” He asked “i guess im not sure exactly what happened” she said “what were those things?” “Theyre called dementors. You saved Harry. You said Apollo was here too?” He asked she nodded “your god son’s here. Hes two compartments down” she smiled at him “im going to go talk to the conductor, i’ll be teaching defense against dark arts” he said to her kissing her forehead she nodded “and youre going to tell me what memory you used when we have a moment to speak” she nodded

“yes uncle moon” she said as Fred took his wand and intertwined his fingers with hers she looked down then back up at him “that was amazing Artie” George said pulling her attention to him “i dont even know what i did” she said truthfully “is that the moony from the map?” George asked she smiled. “Sirius is Padfoot, my god dad is Prongs” she smiled Fred and Artemis walk into the great hall still holding hand he brings it up as she scoots in Angelina scoffs and glared at Artemis “i dont know what they see in her Criminal in the making just like her escapee dad” Angelina rolled her eyes “okay thats it.” She stands up “say whatever the fuck you want about me but you leave my dad out of it.” Artemis snarled at her “or what gonna have Apollo or Harry fight your battles for you? Pathetic you do realize that theyre only friends with you cause they want to sleep with you right” Angelina scoffs gesturing to the twins anger flared in her nostrils “oscausi” suddenly Angelinas mouth disappeared panic set in her face “you can say what you want about me. Cause i dont give a fuck what you think about me. But you keep my dad. And brothers names out. Of. Your. Fucking. Mouth. Or i can take it off. Im sick of mean girls like you who say shit because they think they’re untouchable when in reality theyre making themselves look dumb.” She said lowly “this is your ONLY warning. Next time i’ll make it permanent.” She glared at her “this all started over me beating your marks. Get over yourself im not dumbing myself down to appease your mean girl attitude” she turned back putting her bag on Hermione’s shoulders “undo the charm if you want too. Can you bring my bag back to the dorm?” She asked Hermione “of course” she smiled at her she climbed into her bag zipping it shut so no one could follow her George looked to Fred who was about to say something about it “dont Fred its not worth it. Artemis already handled it” George said holding his brothers shoulder”Hermione let me see the bag” she gives him a small curious look he holds his wand to it “aperi mihi” he whispered the bag opened and he climbed in after Hermione un did the jinx “unbelievable selfish little i cant believe her shes a fucking” Hermione re did the jinx “quit talking about my sister you know you deserved it” with that she left the hall with her bag on her shoulder “MIA WAIT!” George yelled racing after her. Artemis threw things around the room as she screamed every obscene thing that came to mind “ms. Artemis” Kreacher called knocking on the door she composed herself “come in Kreacher” she said in an irritable voice “Kreacher just wanted to check on ms. Artemis” “im fine Kreacher” she said not looking at him “Kreacher thinks Artemis is lying” he said she stayed quiet sitting the chair he sat next to her “Kreacher indeed missed having Artemis home” he said putting his hand on her knee “Kreacher sees that you have perfected elf magic, Kreacher talked to Dobby. Dobby said that you learned fast” she chuckled “i had a great first teacher” she finally looked at him “whats wrong child” he asked “just a girl at school got under my skin” she shrugged “im glad that you decided to come with Poppy Kreacher” she smiled softly “i know you dont necessarily like my dad but can i talk about him for a second?” She asked the elf “child, you are my master. Its my job” he patted her leg “this whole thing is giving me anxiety” she sighs out “i want to believe what i saw back then. I was only three when dad got taken away i dont know what to believe Kreacher. I just want my dad back and me, Apollo, and him could be a family again. I want to feel like i belong and not of obligation. I want to feel like everythings going to be okay. Nothings been right since grandma gave me this” she gestured to her head “i just want to be loved Kreacher” she went quiet “VOICE?” Freds voice distantly called out for her “WHERE ARE YOU?!?” It called again 

“forgive me for speaking out of turn Child but it seems as though you are loved and found a place where you belong” Kreacher snapped his fingers and disappeared she Fred searched high and low for her until he came to the very last door where he heard an exasperated scream into a pillow he slowly opened the door to see Artemis face down laying on her stomach arms folded under the pillow letting out another scream into the pillow he let out a soft breath and sat down by her head on the free space on the chair she felt the cushions dip and a hand run through her hair “skejejdjdkfkrjeuzbrjduskllsdk” she mumbled into the pillow “im sorry i didnt quite catch that” Fred said straining his ears “i shejfjeujejekkwjrjdjeejjdjsjmmsjnr” she spoke into the pillow again “Voice lift your head” he chuckled softly “i said for the third time if youre here to make me apologize im not going to” she slammed her head into the pillow again “i wasnt going to even try to make you apologize” “mdjrhs” she spoke i to the pillow “Voiiice, i cant understand you when you talk into the pillow” he complained poking her shoulder “i said Good” she turned over to lay on her back looking up at the ceiling “thanks for the watch by the way” he said softly “glad you like it” she huffed “i know youre mad” he said she looked up to him “oh really? I couldnt tell.” She huffed out “hey. Dont get all huffy with me i still know where youre ticklish missy” “you wouldnt dare” “try me” he shot back “pick something else.” She said knowing he wanted to ask “anything else to talk about” she breathed out “so. Lupin?” He asked “dads best friend” she smiled “im just really missing my dad right now and knowing that hes out there…. Its getting to me. What Johnson said about him my emotions just wen wild.” She sighed he nodded and continued on to ask her about the marauders She shared the stories she knew of the marauders hours flew by “So let me get this straight” he laughed uncontrollably “your dad and Mom had to fish your god dad out of a well because he saw a movie lassie with his wife” he laughed harder “yeah. He was stuck falling for thirty minutes” she laughed harder “why didnt i know you liked strawberry?” He asked his lips closing into a smile “i dunno, it just never came up” she pulled her legs to her chest “like how Angie bullying you never came up?” she looked down to her knees “why didnt you tell me love?” “Shes your friend. I didnt want to cause any issues” she whispered “its not causing issues voice.” He said putting a hand on her knee “can we please not talk about this?” She asked softly “tell me more about your dad” he smiled gently “he was a big softie, but he put up this rugged exterior, he was a loving father when i knew him” she smiled “hed read me poetry from Edgar Allen Poe. Sing me their wedding song wjen i was lonely mum had to pull a lot of over nighters.” “What was the song?” He asked smile playing on his lips “an old one. My grandpa made up this whole story about how he was sleeping on the beach in his car when the radio was playing came home and sang it to my grandma saying he wrote it for her a couple of days later. They heard it on the radio again. Its by Larry Ghram” she shrugged “sing it for me?” He asked she looked him in the eyes and took a deep breath out her heart sped up 

“love had played its games on me so long… i started to believe id never find anyone… doubt had tried to convince me to give in.. til you came in….” She looked up at him “then one day the sun came shining through the rain had stopped and the skies were blue and oh what a revelation to see. Some one was saying i love you to me…. A one in a million chance of a life time a live” she leaned her head on his shoulder “show compassion that sent to me a stroke of love called you….. a one in a million you” he leaned his head against hers as they stared at the wall his heart felt like it was going to explode he could listen to her sing for hours “i was a lonely man with empty arms to fill then i found a piece of happiness to call my own and life is worth living again.. for to love you to me is to live a one in a million” she grabs his hand playing with his fingers he looks down to her she moves her head up to look at him still leaning her head on his shoulder lip’s centimeters apart again “chance of a life time… and a live show compassion…” he leaned in slightly “and sent to me… a stroke of love… called….” She closed her eyes feeling his breath on her lips “Artemis” he whispered his cheeks heated up as he tried to force the words out of his mouth “you… a one in a million you” she sang barely above a whisper heart thrumming in her chest she was afraid he would hear it “Artemis i….” there was a knock on the door he pulled away from her “Kreacher?” She asked loudly “its just me” Hermione said opening the door “hey Mia whats up?” “George is asking for Fred. I told him i would get him” she smiled “and i need you boy trouble” she smiled Artemis looked at Fred who shared a tight lipped smile

Two weeks to the full moon Artemis walks into the DADA classroom “UNCLE MOON?!?” She yelled “UNCLE MOONY ARE YOU IN HERE?!?” She yelled again “up here Artemis!” He yelled back she carried the box up the stairs “here you go uncle moon i made this last month. I just… thought that itd be fun to make. I guess everything happens for a reason” she shrugged pushing the box to him he opens the box “wolfsbane?” He breathes out “yeah and this is for you too” she said as she dug into her bag pulling out a bottle she received from Fawkes during the summer “it cant be…” “I befriended a Phoenix” she shrugged. I gotta get down to Hagrids Hut. I told him that id help him with Harry’s class for Care of Magical Creatures” she smiled “Pili wait” she stopped “Apollo, you and Apollo who are you two staying with?” He asked “we’re staying at Grandmas old place, when i turned 14 i got legally emancipated and wrote Apollo, he chose to stay with me.” She smiled “the way that dads mum wrote her will gave me adulthood at the age of 14.” She smiled at him “we’ve been okay. Ive been investing my money in the muggle world. Like mum used to.” She smiled “and you two are okay?” He asked “more than okay uncle” she smiled at him “do you have a… a place to stay?” She asked “im back at the cottage in yorkshire.” He simply puts “would… would you come and check on us? From time to time?” She asked softer “you were dads best friend….. being able to see you…. Its like having him back. Do you think he’ll come for us?” She asked softly “come back to take you and be a family again?” He asked “to hurt… to hurt me and my brothers… Harry and Apollo?” she looked down “everything ive read…. And what i think i saw” she whispered “i dont know what to believe anymore” she sighed out “show me love” he said holding his hand out to her she takes his hand gently after showing him her last memory of them and their dad he looks up to her “i remember that day.” He smiled. “Athena took me to her firm and we spent the day cleaning it was the day she told me she was pregnant again. With your younger brother in her office and talking about…” he shook his head of the memory “he loved you and Apollo Artemis, you and him were his world. Hed never shut up about you. And he loved Harry” he spoke clearly “if youre asking me if i think that he would hurt you? The answer is no my dear” he said “thank you uncle Moony, i gotta get going” she smiled he nodded “thank you for the potions. And tears” she snapped her fingers and flashed away Remus ran a hand over his face and looked up “oh. She is so getting detention” he muttered to himself when he saw the maple syrup capsule and a bucket of feathers over his head and a note that flew to his desk ‘I’ve missed you Uncle Moony’ he smiled at the notes and continued smiling after he was covered in maple syrup and feathers “Ah pads she reminds me so much of you but smarter” he said more to himself “Thanks for helping out with this class Artemis” Hagrid said with a big smile on his face “its no problem really although i mightve gotten myself detention with Professor Lupin” she laughed “alright you head to Buckbeak I’ll get the class” she nodded to him as they split up and walked to Buckbeak she bowed and waited for him to make the first move he stepped up to her and bowed back “hey Buck. How are you?” She asked ‘well thank you for bowing again’ he nodded she walked up to him and petted him 

“ready for the class?” He glanced to her eyes and back to Hagrid ‘our time to shine’ he trotted his paw  she hopped on “alright class. Today id like you to open up your books to page on Hippogryphs” “and just how are we supposed to do that! Itll eat us alive” Malfoy spit “YOU PET THE BOOKS SPINE!” Artemis yelled with a laugh as Buckbeak flew around the third years as she pet his neck when he landed “quite an entrance Artie” Hagrid said shaking his head as she jumped off of buck “Good boy Buck though the loop de loop was a little much” she rolled her eyes he stamped his paw again at her as she grinned “ive asked Artemis here to demonstrate how to properly interact with a Hippogryph” Hagrid mentioned. Class moved quickly Harry had ridden the Hippogryph and landed Malfoy went next cockily “Draco! WATCH OUT!” Artemis yelled as Buckbeak jumped up kicking his claws out she shoved Draco one claw nicking him but her getting the full scratch “woah! Woah boy” she cooed softly “youre okay Buckbeak” she smiled softly blood trailing down her arms “Draco? You okay?” She asks looking back at him “such a drama queen” she rolled her eyes at him clutching her arm “MY FATHER WILL BE HEARING ABOUT THIS!” He yelled “Draco its a tiny tiny cut. I got most of it” she rolled her eyes “that dangerous beast shouldnt be at Hogwarts Lia!” He yelled “its not Buckbeaks fault you didnt follow directions!” She yelled “come here” she said holding a hand out to him he took it “Hagrid im taking him to Pomfrey” he nodded she snapped her fingers and took him to the hospital wing “Hey Artie, ready for Divination?” George asked “yeah it should be fun right?” Lee asked “ive never liked seeing. Thats more of Apollo’s thing than mine” she rolled her eyes “how is my brother anyway? He sees you more than he sees me!” She said with a roll of her eyes “OH! George! Yours and Freds Christmas presents came in” she smiles “you know you dont call me that Voice” she squealed in a high pitched tone jumping at the sudden voice behind her into Lee who caught her before she fell on the ground George had an amused smile on his face “SEE! NOT FUN IS IT!” George yelled with a laugh “okay fine i admit it its not fun Georgie” she said as Lee put her down on the ground “and just what did you get us?” Fred asked with a smile playing on his lips “i dont think i should tell you anything now that you half scared me to death Fred!” She crossed her arms playfully “how many times do i have to say it you. Dont. Call. Me. Fred. Its. Heart. To. You.” He said poking her nose between words she rolled her eyes at him “i had my aunty order it from America. And im not telling you what!” She huffed. “I cant believe you screamed like an actual girl” Lee snickered “i am a girl Lee” she blushed “no i know that. But youve always been fearless” he shrugged “who?” Apollo asked meeting up with them “Your sister screamed like a girl for the first time” Lee filled him in “wait really?” He asked surprised “why are you so surprised!” She yelled offended “because thats what you sound like when you yell.” He laughed “you never sound like a girl” “why is everyone picking on me” her cheeks flush red “because its fun to see you so red” George said with a laugh “i hate all of you” she said speeding up her pace “you love us” Apollo teased “debatable!” She yelled back at him he rushed her picking her up on his shoulder as she hung off his shoulder by her hips as he held her knees to his chest in one arm “wanna run that by me one more time?” He asked playfully smirking at his twin sister “I SAID ITS DEBATABLE!” She yelled he held his wand in his free hand casting the tickle charm she started uncontrollably laughing “APOLLO!!” She laughed out “say you love me!” “Never!” She laughed “oh. Okay. Looks like you’re staying here then.” He said continuing to walk with her squirming

“FINE FINE! I LOVE YOU NOW STOP BEFORE I START TO CRY” she yelled laughing he released the charm and put her down “never forget it.” He ran a hand through his hair they all sit down at the same table in traylawneys class “today we will be reading tea leaves and reading them” she said as she poured the tea in each cup she took a sip “ew earl grey” she scrunched her nose and downed the rest slamming her cup on the table “yuck” she said more to herself than anyone at the table ”you dont like Earl grey?” Lee asked “she only drinks lipton black tea” Apollo shrugs “our grandpa back on the island used to make it for her and now she drinks it like water” Apollo said with a shrug. “I personally enjoy the taste of it” he drank his tea and put it down on the table “but i love the taste of your lips more Mr. Jordan” he whispered into Lee’s ear “Apollo i didnt need to hear that” Artemis shook her head “youre just jealous ive kissed someone before you Artie” Lee teased “shes kissed someone before after someone kissed her” George snickered “shut up George” she and Fred said together “shes kissed someone twice” Apollo said looking at Lee “She had her first kiss and didnt tell me about it?!?” He yelled “who would want to kiss her” Angelina scoffed from the table behind him “well if i wasnt Gay me.” Lee said to Angelina who rolled her eyes at him “id be okay with that” Apollo shrugged nonchalantly “Apollo” she warned again “dont think youre off the hook Artie! Just who did you kiss and not tell your bestfriend!” He scoffed in fake hurt she looked to Fred who just shrugged with a small smile “NO!” He yelled “FRED KISSED YOU AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME!” He yelled standing up “MR. JORDAN” Traylawney scolded “sorry professor” Lee said sitting down “so are you guys more now?” She looked down “not yet” Fred said with the shrug of his shoulders “pathetic why would he want her. Shes literally nothing. He could have everything” Angelina scoffed “it was a good first kiss though.” Fred smiled “see maybe shes not all that” Angie laughs Fred was about to stand up but she put a hand on his arm “shes not worth it. Its okay” 

“Oh dear this is the second one today, My dear girl you have the Grim” Traylawney said sadly “oh yeah yeah whatever nothing new” she sassed and waved her hand “im in grave danger this grave danger that my well being is at risk pain despair and destruction is my destiny Harry and i will go through great peril before there is peace blah blah blah blah blah. tell me something i dont already know child of prophecy and The chosen one to save the wizarding world for the greater good my big fat hawaiian english ass.” she huffs out under her breath grabbing her bag Lee and Apollo snickering as she stormed out “did she just call her ass big and fat?”George furrowed his eyebrows “she says that a lot.” Apollo said “i mean shes not wrong. Her butt is really nice” Lee complemented “im going to let that slide cause youre gay” George said “i mean. He complements her rack all the time too. I dont have an issue with it. It boosts her confidence” Apollo shrugs “i dont care if Lee comments on my ass and boobs because its nothing he hasnt seen before. Lee helps me pick out underwear. Its something we do at hogsmead.” Artemis shrugs “Apollo usually comes to play with the silicone bra’s.” She rolled her eyes “my future brother in law is the best there is” “hey! I take offense to that! Im going to be your brother in law too one day! When you and Fred gets Married!” George protested “listen. If me and Fred do get married you and Lee can fight over favorite but since they’re guaranteed to be married one day Lee holds that title for now. And im pretty sure Charlie would put up a good fight too” Artemis said leaving the classroom “class isnt finished yet!” The professor said “im going to be late for detention with professor Lupin, i left my report and next months homework on your desk.” She said with a wave heading out of the door she knocked on the door to Remus’s classroom and opened the door “sorry uncle Moony. I just needed to get away. Can we just say that im doing detention for the prank please” she said softly “are you okay?” He asked “i suppose.” She sighs “Pili.” He said softly “dont… please” she pleaded putting her head down he nodded and sat at his desk the door flew open “Voice” Fred breathed out sitting next to her “not now Fred” she whispered “hey. Look at me Voice” he grabbed her hand on her leg she moved her head to the side to look at him “youre not pathetic” he whispered “youre all that and more you know that right? And a lot of people want want to kiss you. Dont listen to what she said.” He smiles at her wanting to tell her how he felt but in the presence of a teacher he stifled the rest of his sentence softly pushing her hair behind her ear Remus watched the pair ‘Lily and James’ he thought to himself as he watched the two interact with each other she picked her head off the desk “what would i do without you?” She asked “crash and burn probably.” He joked “youre my voice of reason you keep me out of trouble, im your heart.” He stops waiting for her “you keep me human” she said softly “We keep each-other safe” he smiled at her “we keep each-other safe” she repeated  he sat back in his chair “so… want to go feed your animals?” He asked wanting to tell her everything. she looks at him “you just want to prove a point of Hemolele liking you more!” She stuck her tongue out at him “SHE DOES!” He said defensively “whatever” she rolled her eyes at him “who’s Hemolele?” Remus asked “her three headed dog” “you have a three headed dog?” “She got her from Hagrid” Fred shrugged his shoulders he unzipped her bag and guided her in “you coming Professor?” Fred asked as he looked around “i’ll stand guard” he said shaking his head “just come in i know you want too!” She yelled up to him “MOMS PETS ALREADY KNOW YOU!” She yelled again rolling her eyes “stop yelling im here” he huffed

 “i have some of your things you left in here from mom was around theyre in the library” she shrugged he nodded heading over to the library “can i talk to you?” He asked seriously “yeah?” She asked him “come with me” he said smiling he goes to Igneous’s pen and pets him “hey Igneous” he smiled “what are you doing?” She smiled at him “just listen” he said looking back to the bird “i want to….” He paused taking a breath out “i want to tell the most beautiful girl ive ever laid my eyes on that im helplessly in love with her” her heart stops she looks at him intently his hair slightly long red blush across his face “she has these gorgeous big golden eyes…light brown skin…. Black hair.. and a smile that lights up every room, an amazing sense of humor, shes sarcastic and witty, and her laugh” he groans “shes perfect. And she doesnt even realize it shes everything I want and more. Shes… shes so pretty and i… i cant imagine my life without her. shes kind and caring loves animals and sometimes i think she can talk to them and her voice is so calming and soothing i could listen to her ramble on all day. But all i want to do is listen to her sing when she sings her favorite song she gets this sparkle in her eyes. It makes her so happy and happiness is what she deserves to feel and be” he smiles to the bird “but this girl in our year…. She keeps picking on her. And i dont think she’d believe me if i ever told her to her face. Ive been waiting for her since the first detention we spent together the first time she showed me her memories. The first time she told me she needed me i knew id never leave her. Theres no one else but her that i want” he chuckled her face streaming with tears at the tender moment “shes my voice of reason but i think shes more than that because my mind is flooded with thoughts of her. And i gave her my heart a long time ago…. She hasn’t given me any reason to think that that was a bad idea. Shes only nurtured and grown it in the time shes had it and i dont think she realizes she has my heart beating in her chest” he sighed out “when she calls me heart it makes my world stop and the effect she has on me i cant keep this bottled up anymore i really hope im not scaring her away from me with saying all this” Remus silently listened leaning against the wall out of sight “but we’ve been dancing around eachother for years. And i want her to be mine” he turned around and looked at her Remus moved to the door way watching as he thumbed her tears away from her cheeks giving Artemis a small smile fear in his eyes he took a shakey breath dropping his hands “good or bad i want it all. Voice. I know what Angie said. And i want you to know that i love you just the way you were. The way you are. I fell in love with the puzzle you are. I fell in love with the scary parts of you, before i fell in love with the good. The good made it better. But i have and will love you through it all. Good, bad, ugly, scary.. its all beautiful, and i want all of it.  i loved you then. And i love you now” he leans his forehead on hers Remus leans in the door way watching them talk with a smile plastered on his face seeing her face light up

 “ive been in love with you since forever, it feels like ive known you… for lifetimes… i could find you in a room if you were deaf and i was blind.. and i know…. Or i think i know that you love me too the way you support me and make me want to open up the care and kindness you only show me the watch. Everything youve ever done for me its love isnt it….” he breathed out closing his eyes and holding both her hands in his not wanting to see the rejection in her face if he was wrong she lets go one of his hands bringing her hand to cup his face he leans into her touch still with his eyes closed “say something please say anything… just… just dont hurt me..” he gulps down the lump in his throat “I'm afraid Heart” she said his eyes shot open “you have nothing to be afraid of not with me…i wont hurt you Artemis…” he said “please dont call me that you haven’t called me that in a long time” she whispered “trust me Voice i wont hurt you.” he whispered “im afraid that love isn't going to be enough… that im not enough for you… im broken… and you deserve so much better than what i can give you” she whispered “hey maybe theyre in here” Lee said to George and Apollo “look theres lupin!” George said Remus turned his head holding a finger to his mouth they all come and crowd the door way “You are enough for me. Its me that will never be enough. All i can offer you is me. I want to be able to give you everything i want to give you the moon and stars. Because thats what you deserve. Youve always been enough. Im so deep in for you it scares me and i am so sorry for not saying it sooner” fred whispers “i was selfish and narcissistic to think that youd ever love me the way ive been loving you you are everything to me and i… i didnt want you to be. Youre perfect… and im just me…. I was afraid of losing the little i did have of you that i wanted to bottle it down and burry it. It took us forever to get here, falling in love with you was like taking it back to square one” he said voice breaking shutting his eyes tighter insecurity written all over his face never seeing him so vulnerable and meek before she cups his face in her hand “i love you” she says softer “youre just saying that its okay you dont have to say it” he smiles not opening his eyes she could hear the hurt in his voice “i love you” she kissed the palm of his hand “i love you” she kissed his wrist “i love you Freddie” she kissed his cheek “im in love with you.” his other cheek “i love you and i wont hurt you” she kissed his forehead bringing his face down to where she could reach it finally opening his eyes to look at her face “i love you” she kissed his nose “i love you. And i want to be with you. I want to be with you going out to fancy restaurants watching movies together sappy love letters and flowers. I want it all. With you. Only you” she whispered ghosting her lips over his he pulls her in by her neck smashing his lips against hers. They kiss for a pregnant minute “i want to be with you too…. Tell me again…. Please say it again” he whispers letting a tear out of his eye “i love you Fred Gideon Weasley” “youre so beautiful Artemis youre like a star.. i cant look away” he whispered “i want you so bad” he said louder “im in love with you. I want you to Be mine and only mine…” he whispered feeling insecure again “yours. Only yours.” She smiles wrapping her arms around his neck pulling him in for a hug

 “im yours” he whispered  wrapping his arms tighter against her waist “youre mine” he continued “only mine” voice cracking and vulnerable she nodded in the crook of his neck “just yours Heart” she whispered “i love you Voice” “i love you” she smiled “WELL IT TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH!” George said through cupped hands they break apart and see her twin Lee George and Lupin all gathered around the entranceway “shut up Apollo!” Artemis yelled “oh bugger off” Fred said Flipping George off dipping her and kissing her again she giggled “Freddie” she smiled “its Heart to you” he said against her lips “come on lads lets leave them to it” Remus said “KEEP IT PG!” He jested walking out of the bag

Two weeks later and the announcement of Buckbeaks trial they were all on edge Hermione and Artemis have been studying non stop to find a way to save the hippogryph but they were coming short Fred George Ron and Harry have been helping out as well. But it was futile an up hill battle they all walked into the great hall for dinner after a long day of classes “Ugh OWLS are kicking my ass” Artemis said and sat down at their normal seating “I should write mom” he said eating dinner she turned to smile at him giving him a small smile “she loves you. dont worry” he said with a small smile “i was just going to tell you i wrote Charlie. So she probably already knows” she gives him a small smile blush coming to his cheeks “youre amazing you know that” he smiled at her “ugh they’re even more unbearable before he admitted he loved her” George said nudging Lee “oh quiet. I think its cute. Its nice to see my sister so happy. She deserves this” Apollo said taking a bite of food “all i can say is. We shouldve bet on it” Hermione laughed tossing a crumb at George “be careful Granger. Im the king of food fights” George teases “quit flirting with Hermione you pratt” Ron said as Angelina scoffs “when you get your head out of your ass and realize that she’s not worth it. I’ll be here shes Pathetic.” Angelina said with a laugh “thanks. But no thanks” Fred said looking directly at Angelina “shes my pualena. I chose her over everyone shes my best friend and shes my everything. when it comes to Artemis im all in. This is all or nothing for me. And id appreciate it if youd stop bullying my girlfriend. Its time i start protecting her the way i shouldve been protecting her from the beginning like i promised her i would she doesnt fight back because she knows who she is and doesnt need me to defend her. Its not worth it shes said it so many times Artemis is not pathetic, shes smart beautiful and kind. Jealousy is ugly Ange. Just stop” he said turning back to Artemis wrapping an arm around her shoulder she leans further into him smiling “thank you” “sweetheart i love you of course” he smiles “youre really going to chose a washed used up piece of broken meat over me who could give you the world” she laughs ludicrously “we’re done here. Instead of telling or questioning me about what i should do. when it comes to her my voice of reason” he said looking at her standing up and helping Artemis up off of the table “you should be asking yourself what would i not do for her. id choose her over my own mother Angelina. Because she wouldnt make me choose. Shes not washed up or used. Shes perfect to me and thats all that matters. She is my world and shes been my world since the first prank shes ever pulled on me.” Fred said turning to face Artemis “you ready to go sweetheart?” “Yeah. Mione wanna come with? We can do research for buckbeak and you can help me and the twins study for OWLS.” she smiled to Hermione “definitely” she said smiling at Artemis she blew a paper bird to George he opened it

‘your turn. Get your girl nows your chance dont blow it give her the bracelet. -Artemis’ he quickly folded the paper and raced after them “did you mean that?” Artemis looked up to Fred who’s arm was around her shoulders “every word” he looked down “why wouldnt i mean that?” He asked with furrowed brows “i… im still getting used to this” she said with a nervous chuckle “baby. I meant every word. I’ll wait forever for you” “you guys are so cute. Now if i may. Can i be the first to say ‘i told you so’” Hermione laughed. “I still get to be godmother of your children. And maid of honor at the wedding” she raised her eyebrow at Fred “and im still your man of honor at yours. AND your first sons middle name is Fred” He rolled his eyes at her “did i miss something?” She asked with a raised eyebrow at her best friend and boyfriend “oh nothing.” Fred said with a playful tone “just when did you decide he gets to be man of honor over me” Artemis pouted “i didnt. He took it all for himself” Hermione crossed her arms over her chest as Artemis laughed at her “it was when we were sitting on the giant chess board. We were talking about you and i. Hermione and George and Ron. You get to be best woman. If its George” Fred said he shrugged “just why would i do that?” Artemis laughed “hypothetically speaking if its me and George we would fight over who’s side youd stand on. Even if Fred wasnt going to be my Man if honor” Hermione shrugged “HEY! WAIT UP!” George screamed the group turned back to look at him “Mia” he said out of breath “i got this for you. Early christmas gift and what not” he breathed heavily handing her the small box “its only November though?” She said confused “yeah. Well. I wanted to give it to you now” he said panting “just open the box Granger” Fred said with a playful smile “dont be shy Mione” Artemis said as Hermione glared at her. she opened the box to a small charm bracelet with the Eiffel Tower charm that had a small H hanging off of it an open book charm that read whatever our souls are made of his and mine are the same and another charm that was a red lion with a small G she gasps holding the small lion charm in her hand he put a hand on the back of his neck “i just thought that id get you a more grown up charm bracelet since you said you were sad that your childhood one no longer fit or could hold charms anymore. The first one is for Gryffindor from first year. A book with your favorite quote from that book that you read to me second year… and you went to Paris last summer… i have another charm in my pocket for third year… but i…..”  he stops shy of what he wanted to say “i’ll let you answer for yourself. I know youre stuck in the middle of me and Ron… and its okay to say no” He blushed placing the charm in the box with the bracelet she looked at the heart shaped charm with H.G + G.W 1993 engraved on it she felt her heart speed up as she looked up at him “you…. Youre asking me… is this?” She couldnt find the right words he simply gave her a smile and nodded his heart racing cheeks stained red she looked at him to the box and back to him again she dropped the box and flung herself into him wrapping her arms around his neck in a tight hug he grabbed her waist “Mia a little warning next time” he chuckled regaining his balance “i take it its a yes?” He asked softly “you bloody fucking idiot yes!” She laughed as he hugged her tighter and spins her around she picked up the box and handed him the bracelet and charm holding out her wrist for him to put it on he smiled as he clasped the chain around her wrist “you owe me two sickles” Artemis whispered to Fred “Shut up” he smiled playfully back at her “i told you so” i sing songed to him “okay okay you were right” Fred smiled

Dear Charlie,

Big favor to ask you. I know, and youre allowed to say no but I need a loan. As you probably already know Artemis… shes.. were… Charlie shes the one. Shes the one im going to spend the rest of my life with. Im asking her to marry me the day we graduate. I want to put in the deposit for my ring. Madame Hanks just gave me the quote for what i want and its perfect. Shes perfect she deserves the best. Let me know. The picture on the invoice is Artemis’s ring i will pay you back with a 6% interest rate as soon as George and I graduate. Im not sure how well our dreams will come off the ground by my math. 1500 galleons with a 6% interest rate over the span of Five years from the date of loan will be totaled to 505 galleons extra 2005 galleons will be paid back. please let me know soon i have to have an answer for the jewelers by the end of the month. 

Fred

Freddie,

This is definitely a big ask, and i knew from the get go. How could i ever say no. Bill and i have been putting in money to an account since you two met. That account already has 500 galleons in it, it was going to be used for your and Artemis’s wedding. Its been a running joke between Bill and i, looks like we both lost the bet. I will give you the galleons in the banking account and loan you 1000 galleons. You wont have to pay me back til after you graduate lets call it an even 1200 galleons total. But what i want to know is how this happened i’ve read Artemis’s side. I want to know your side. The ring you designed is beautiful Fred it’ll stun her for sure. Shes only been yearning for you since the day you two met on the train. How are things back at school? Is she alright with her dad on the loose? How is she coping with everyone it sounds like shes struggling a bit with her letters and mirror calls but you know Artemis better than anyone else do i have to make an early trip back home? Enclosed is a check for the loan. I had Bill draw up a loan contract that i will sign and you have to sign and id do well to keep it between us yeah? I love you Fred. You did good.

Charlie

Charlie,

Angelina has been bullying her shes crying a lot when we’re feeding the animals. She has two new house elves that are working for her. They get 2 galleons an hour and have a set schedule of 40 hour weeks. They get paid every two fridays and they have two days off Shes got this system to a T and Dobby is still making Harry’s life hell. What do you mean an early trip back home by the way? Ive signed my portion of the contract. All thats left for you to do is sign. Thank you for trusting me this much. I love you too. Ginnys been asking about Snow like if Romania is actually snowing or if its something else we’ve been chatting about. Sirius ripped the painting of the fat lady and the school went bonkers. He also broke into the Gryffindor common room and ruffed up Ron he was a right mess. We had to sleep in the great hall. She spent the entire night in my arms cause she was afraid of what the other kids’ll say to her. whatever Sirius is after its starting to get Hairy with Artemis and im worried about her shes questioning everything. Im trying to reassure her best i can but its tough when shes still learning to let me in fully. I just know she misses you and cant wait to see you at Christmas if thats still going on i cant believe youre going to be stealing my girl over Christmas break. I know. I know you two planned it before we even started dating but an invite wouldve been nice

Fred

Fred,

I know im sorry i didnt invite you i didnt think mum would let you come to the reserve. The only reason Artemis is coming is because of the hatchling she found this year shes just as torn up about coming as you are. All i know is you and George are going to love your christmas gifts from her. She got you guys an awesome gift. Itll really help with quidditch. And as for the trip back home im not allowed to say more than what i already have. Just know that im going to be coming home soon and will see you. I promise i wont let Artemis get too roughed up out here. Shes mostly going to be staying in town away from the sanctuary. We’re just dropping off the baby dragon. Bill and I are going to be taking her sight seeing and shopping. You know. Typical older brother things when family comes over. Please dont be too upset but we deserve time with her too and you know it. Its cute how all you two ever talk about is each other. You better send me photos of the ring when you get it mister. 

Charlie,

The ring is as beautiful as I thought it was going to be. George and Hermione are growing stronger than ever. Rons still not talking to her over what happened but apparently Buckbeaks execution is happening next week and her and Artie have been inconsolable. Artemis still needs a lot of reassurance but ive never been happier shes started to willingly tell me things without me promising not to hurt her today she came up to me wrapping her arms around me saying she had a bad day and needed cuddles, we sat on the sofa and she told me everything unprompted and unprovoked she looked into my eyes and told me she loved me and when shes in my arms everything melts away. I dont think ive ever seen or felt anything quite like this before its breathtaking. She completes me more than she realizes im in love Charlie. I get the ring next week i was debating on sending it to you for safe keeping but im not entirely sure about that idea either. 

Fred

Fred,

You have no idea how happy that makes me. If you want me to hold on to the ring i will its safe either with me or with you. Just becareful if you take it home with Mum you know her and her cleaning and going through things. Artie, Shes good for you and youre good for her weve been rooting for you two to get together since you were in first. Even mum and dad were in on it. 

“hey Heart can i talk to you?” Artemis’s voice broke me out of my latest letter from Charlie “yeah love whats up?” I asked her folding the letter up and putting it in my bag “remember at the beginning of the year. The train ride how Remus was explaining the patronus charm” i nodded still looking at her “I wanted you to know that the happy memory i thought of was our first kiss how it made me feel” she admitted putting her head on my shoulder i moved my arm and brought it around her shoulders pulling her into my side

“yeah? How did it make you feel?” I asked looking down into her big beautiful golden eyes “it made me feel like i was floating. If you werent gripping my collar of the shirt i was wearing i wouldve floated away. It felt like electricity flowing through me i didnt want you to pull away from me.” She looked up to me with a small smile “how did it make you feel?” She asked “like my heart was going to beat out of my chest.” I smiled down at her “like it was like you were holding me down to this earth it made me feel like we were meant to be.” I breathed out “why are you telling me this?” I asked with slightly furrowed brows  “Everything thats going on with Sirius and Harry. Harry Hermione and Ron all fighting… i dont want you to disappear” she said softly i looked at her “baby im not going anywhere” i said softly “i dont want you to leave me alone” “I’ll never leave you alone Voice. Im in love with you. Im so in love with you its unreal” i said softly brushing the hair out of her face “are you still upset about me going to Romania for our first Christmas together?” “Nah. Like you and Charlie said it was already planned before i told you i loved you. Its not an issue Voice” i smiled at her softly she still looked unease  “Voice. Im not mad. Im happy you get on so great with my siblings. Although im jealous of you. Charlie and Bill treat you better than they treat me and George” i huff in fake hurt to which she chuckled at i smile at her seeing that she was finally settling down “i love you Kahalialaulani. Thats not changing ever. I’ll wait forever for you” i smiled at her “j love you Gideon” she said softer my heart sped up at the softness in her voice “i promise” i said soft making her look up at me “i promise i’ll never leave you, i’ll never stop loving you. And that i’ll be yours til the day i die” i said “i’ll go out and buy you a promise ring tomorrow if thats what you need to be reassured” she blushed at the words as she looked down “you dont have..” “i want too. We can go pick one tomorrow at Hogsmeade.” i smiled at her “sing to me?” I asked her rubbing her arm she looked up and smiled my heart fluttered “only if you play for me” she said i shook my head Nd took her hand leading her up to my dorm room when Hermione called out “ARTIE” “yeah?” She smiled her lips swollen and George following right behind her “heres that book i borrowed” Hermione handed her a book I’ve never seen before “how was it?” She asked with a playful smile “we loved it” George said with a blush “ive always wanted to try chapter eleven” she winked at Hermione Hermione blushed at her as she put the book back in her bag “thank you for letting me borrow the book baby” Hermione brushed a hair behind her ear “anything for you my favorite lady” Artemis flirted back to Hermione she looked back up to me i gave her a confused look she chuckled “its a line from the book. Well sort of” Artemis shrugged to me “you gonna let me read that book?” She blushed 10 shades of red “just what is that book about?” I asked her with a small laugh “mostly sex” George said as Hermione and him followed me and Artemis up the steps “really?” I asked looking behind to George “yeah that specific line is from that chapter she just said. It is two girls about to go down on” Artemis launches herself at him covering his mouth with her hand Hermione doing the same thing we both laugh at the two girls “dont make me Hex you” Hermione said under her breath as we sat in the circle around the floor guitar in my hand. “So youll sing to me?” I asked Artemis “if you play. I’ll sing” she looked over to Hermione who nodded before the girls left she left the book Hermione borrowed on my bed i chuckled and placed it under my pillow going back to my letter

Mum and dad actually won i think. Im not exactly sure i remember what was said i’ll have to ask Bill. But anyway. Has Ron gotten over Hermione being with George yet? Or is that still going on? Hopefully Ron gets over it soon. He’s her best friend, anyway. I gotta go so if i dont reply to your next letter fast enough things at the sanctuary picked up. Im not ignoring you. Just in case i love you Freddie. Tell the rest i send my love too. Hey im proud of you.

Charlie

“Whats that?” George asked Fred “letter from Charlie” he smiled “oh about what?” “Asked him for a loan. Catching him up on our endeavors.” “A loan? Loan for what?” George asked looking to Fred “if i show you. You cant tell anyone. Not mum. Not Mione. No one. Sworn to secrecy” George looked to Fred “of course mate” George replied Fred tossed him the box he had just received from the jeweler George furrowed his eyebrows “just open it” Fred rolled his eyes at George he opened the box and audibly gasped “Fred you didnt” he said taking the ring out of the box “is this stars?!” He asked looking to his brother holding the ring “Sirius and Rigel” Fred nodded “is this… are you” George sputtered “when we graduate.” Fred said with the shrug of his shoulders “so shes really going to be my sister then?” “If she says yes and Hermione doesnt steal her from me first.” Fred jested as he read chapter eleven of the book ‘Derek pushed his wifes shoulders and face further down into the cunt she was currently three fingers deep into her lapping away at the wetness that dripped off her fingers gently sucking and licking at her clit as he pounded into her ‘be a good girl and get her off for daddy’ he rasps feeling her velvet walls clench around his cock ‘fuck you feel so good little slut’ the muffled moans of Sarah his wifes best friend gets louder and louder as drool dripped off the red ball held in her mouth by two leather straps she gripped the metal of the handcuffs that held her to the headboard of their bed ‘plssss plsss can i cum sir plss’ she begged through the ball gag eyes screwing shut trying to hold back her impending doom ‘cum. Soak Brittanys face.’ She screamed out as her orgasam washed over her legs shaking Brittany rubbed down her thighs as she continued to finger her through her orgasam Sarah breathing heavy as she moaned a long moan bucking her hips into Brittanys mouth ‘keep going i know she has one more in her’ he gripped her hips tighter as he hit her G spot over and over again making her moan into Sarahs soaking pussy ‘can i cum please daddy please can i cum ive been such a good girl please!’ Brittany babbled as he pulled out whining at the loss of his cock’ George puts the ring into its box and tosses it to Fred “theyre really into this stuff?” Fred asked red cheeked “Hermione? Definitely. Artemis? I could see it.” He shrugged “you and her havent….” “No, i dont want to push her.” “Have you guys talked about it?” He asked

“once..” Freds cheeks heated up “its only been a few months” “but you picked an engagement ring” “somethings you just know and somethings you dont.” Fred looked at his brother “Artemis… she.. what Lucious did to her… i dont want to rush her into it i dont want to force her to do something she isnt ready for and she views me differently. I dont want to be the monster she dreams about” Fred sighed “she’ll never view you that way Freddie.” George reassured his brother “this book isnt helping” Fred sighed out throwing it onto the foot of his bed “you know what youre getting Artemis for her birthday?” Fred looked at his brother “i had dad charm her a bookshelf for her bag” George shrugged “Mia’s is coming up soon. You getting her another charm? I got her the book she was eyeing at florish.” Fred said “yeah. I got her a rose charm for Beauty and the beast. what are you gonna get her?” “I bought her a teddy bear made of black roses” Fred shrugged “cute” George smiles “know what youre getting Mia for Christmas?” He asked George “i was thinking a new book. Seems like the right way to go when it comes to Mione” he smiled “is Ron and Harry still not talking to her?” “No. Those prats. I mean Harry’s loyalty to Ron is admirable but. He still talks to me. I hate that its hurting her.” George lets out a huff of air “Ron’ll get over it. From what Hermione’s told me is that youd never make her choose between anything. Ron constantly makes her feel like she has to choose him over everything” Fred shrugged “besides she has Artemis. Me. You. Shes not alone she has friends. She’ll be okay Artemis and Hermione were friends before Harry and Ron were. Youve got nothing to worry about” Fred said as he laid back on the bed “i just hate how she cries” George runs a hand over his face “i get that.” Fred smiled as Lee opened the door “Lads” he smiled sitting on the floor “how was Apollo’s?” George asked “it was great. He’s worried about Artemis.” Lee shrugged “we all are mate.” George said looking at him “im so glad winter break is coming soon. Apollo asked me to hang out at his for the week” he smiled “said to invite you blokes as well since Artemis is off to Romania” 

The next morning Artemis and Hermione were dancing in their underwear getting ready for the day “turn it up i love this song!” Artemis laughed Hermione laughed with her she swayed her hips putting on her make up when the lyrics come on “Body lookin' crazy, woah” she sung turning to Hermione “That pussy might amaze me, woaah” she grabs Hermiones hands facing the mirror and spins her around putting her hands on Hermiones hips “That's my bestfriend, that's my bestfriend” she sways Hermione’s hips in time with hers grabbing her hands and putting them above her head in the air kneeling “She's not my girlfriend, she's my bestfriend” George and Fred open the door mouth dropping at the sight of both girls dancing in the mirror swaying their hips grinding against eachother Fred felt his trousers tightening seeing Artemis in a loose shirt and knickers on “I just fuck her from time to time She wanted another drink so I ordered another line, no” Artemis sings as hermione brings her-hands behind her gripping Artemis’s thighs Artemis makes a face in the mirror sexy dancing “no, yeah yeah She gon' do it for the vine, she gon' do it for the vine like, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah” Hermione sang spinning Artemis to face her “Come and fuck me I really wanna get turned up I really wanna roll the L up We gon' get it in time” she sings to Artemis who-raises her hands above her head dancing “UNO DOS TRES!” They yell laughing at eachother when George cleared his throat their heads shoot to the door where their boyfriends stand “whats going on here?” He asked Artemis’s face flushes 100 shades of red Hermiones mouth gaping open “getting ready?” She said with a smile “are you sure you werent just about to do chapter eleven?” George cocks an eyebrow at her going in for a kiss “without inviting me and Fred” he whispered the last part as Artemis puts on her pants shooting Fred an apologetic look “Heart its not what it looked like” she said quickly “it looked like you were having fun with your friend” he smiled red cheeked “we were just dancing and “Artemis!” George called “we’re not mad. We know you guys were just dancing.” George continued “i personally thought it was hot” Fred pecked her lips in a quick kiss Fred and Artemis walked to her bed engrossed in their own conversation “i wouldnt oppose to trying chapter eleven if thats what you wanted Mione.” George kissed the junction of where her neck and shoulder met she breathed out “you just have to decide who’s cuffed to the bed post…. And who gets forced into” she whacks him with a parchment “GEORGE! Your brothers right there!” She whispered back

“theyre not even paying attention to us” he whispered back “i wont mind if you want to be the one tied up as she eats your pussy til youre cumming and squirting all over the bedsheets maybe i can be sitting behind you balls deep in your tight little hole while she eats your pussy til youre sore and crying or i fuck you til you see stars as you suck on her clit and eat her cum” he whispered her cheeks heated up “HERMIONE!” Artemis yelled “YEAH! What?” She said startled “i saiiiid are you coming or not??” She asked looking confused “Yea! We’re right behind you!” She said buttoning up her skirt rushing out of the door behind Artemis “what were you guys talking about?” Artie asked “chapter eleven” she blushed Artemis smiled “so what did you want to get at hogsmeade?” She asked Artie “just some books. The normal.” Hermione went along with Ron further ahead “im glad that they worked it out. Itd suck if they didnt work it out. ‘Mione deserves to be happy” Artemis smiles as the two boys build their snow man “why are you saying it” George starts “like you dont deserve the same thing?” Fred finished  she looked back at them but before she could answer footprints made their way through the snow she followed them closely Fred and George following behind her picking Harry up from behind under his arms “come on guys let me go” “stop struggling and this’ll be easier for you” Artemis rolled her eyes “but Naleo im trying to get to Hogsmeade!” He protests “we know” the three of them say together she pulls off his invisibility cloak and the three of them smile at him “we want to give this to you” George started “no. Harry its not rubbish” Artemis said reading his thoughts “here.” She points her wand “i solemnly swear that i am up to no good” she said as the ink bleeds through the paper “messers Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs present to you the Marauders map?” Harry questions “see here?” She points to Prongs he looks up to her “thats my God dad.” She points to Moony “Apollo’s God dad” she smiles. And finally Padfoot “your God dad” she smiled “but my god father is your….” She nodded “and my god father is your dad Harry. To close the map point your wand and say Mischief Managed” she smiled bigger “we suggest taking the one eyed lady’s passage” “itll get you there” the twins smiled “i cant believe we let him take the map” George sighed walking to hogsmeade “it was time Georgie” Fred started “we’ve memorized the entire map anyway” she finished “i dont want to hear it out of you Ms. Black” George pinched her side she giggled “we’re going in to here. Gonna go find Mia and the rest?” Fred asked “yeah. Meet up with you on the way back” George smiled back at Fred running off “why are we going into a jewelry store?” She asked him “i promised you a promise ring” he shrugged “i cant afford much. But i think we can find something nice” he held the door open she looked to the right to a vending machine “can i have a sickle?” She asked with a smile he handed her one with a cocked eyebrow she went up to the plastic rings and turned the knob a plastic egg came out she opened it laying the contents in her palm a simple plastic bright lavender ring fell into her palm she smiled walking up to Freddie “its perfect Heart, thank you” she smiled at him putting it on her finger he stared at her gobsmacked “Voice that is not…. NO! We’re getting you something nicer!” She frowns at him “but i want this one!” She pouted “you tricked me!” He said with a ghost of a smile playing on his face “i dont want you to spend money on me i dont need it. Being with you. This plastic ring. Its enough Heart. Love is enough” she smiled up to him “im not going to win this one am i?” He asked she shook her head smiling at him

“Stay safe. Write me. Dont jump into any dragon enclosures and dont die!” Apollo said hugging her tightly “dont destroy my house. Write me. No sex in my bed” she repeated to him “Fred and George are coming too, it alright if i stick them in your room?” He asked “yeah. No issue “Are you done hogging my girlfriend yet?” Fred said in an impatient tone “come on Freddie. That’s his sister” George said “yeah. Its not like you wont ever see her again mate. Its only a week” Lee commented as they waited at Kings Cross “Apollo hugged Artemis one last time “i love you Lia girl” he whispered “i love you too Leonahe im coming back. Dont worry” she smiled at him “im not leaving you again. Its just for the week” she smiles “i know. Say good bye to your boyfriend.” He chuckled she walked up to Fred who grabbed both of her hands “show me” he whispered she brought a hand to cup his cheek she showed him everything from the beginning letting him feel her feelings for him he leaned into her touch feeling just how deep her feelings were for him she showed him their first kiss and him protecting her from Angie. He sighed when she showed him how she felt now about the ring they got from the vending machine and leaving him for Romania now “wait. Keep watching” she said when she felt him slightly pull away “i want you to see the prophecy Apollo had” she smiled he nodded slowly she showed him what she hoped their future would be like the dream she had Apollo’s vision did just that *Five years in the future twenty two year old Artemis sang ‘island baby… youre so beautiful you drive me crazy. You know youre all that i need so much more’ she sang to a baby wrapped in blue looking out the window seeing Fred and three kids that looked to be the same age flying on brooms Sirius cheering the kids on as they sped around Fred hovering in the center she smiles looking down at their son red hair brown skin golden eyes she stands up from her chair bouncing him going to the crib ‘your strength and beauty i can see in your eyes i lose sight if my world baby love no words can hold whats truly on my mind’ she goes to the adjacent crib after setting him down to an identical twin boy ‘just feel the beat of my heart and youll know what i need… youre my pualena, youre so beautiful. God knows i love you’ “Artemis dear” Molly called from down stairs “up here mum!” She said quietly Molly comes into the room “hows my boys doing?” She asked hugging her “Nathaniel just had a blow out i finally got him settled. Apollo’s still asleep” she smiled “and the triplets?” She asked “take a look for yourself” she smiled looking out of the nursery window “is that Sirius spectating down there?” “Yep. He thinks Geo is going to be a seeker like uncle Harry.” She laughs “hows Dad?” Artemis asked “hes doing well. Asked me to bring you this” she smiled handing her another book “hows this pregnancy going?” Molly put a hand on her belly smiling “horrid. Ive been puking non stop. Fred had to make a bed for me next to the toilet. Freddie wanted you to know first” she smiled handing her her sonogram that said ‘hello Grandma Molly.. we’re girls!’ She put her glasses on the bridge of her nose “girls?” She asked with tears in her eyes “two of them” Artemis smiled to Molly “oh!” She said pulling her into a hug “im so happy for the two of you!” She said tearily “thank you mom” she hugged Molly back even tighter “i brought lunch for you and the kids” she smiled “you didnt” “hush i’ll have none of that Artemis!” She scolded “yes Maam” “thank you Mum, i dont know what id do with out your and Dad’s help. I blame Freds Genes for this. This is my third set of multiples. I mean papa padfoot has been a god sent too. But with him and Remus constantly here its’ she blows out a raspberry chuckling “we think these ones are going to be born on Charlie’s birthday” she smiled she took her hand off his cheek “i see us in our future together” she whispered to him he pulled her into a bone crushing hug

“i am so in love with you Artemis” he breathed out “i love you Fred” she smiled into the hug “nothing will ever change how i feel about you” he whispered “i know i cant show you the way that you show me.. but i’ll spend eternity trying to prove that i feel the same way about you. You do about me. Write me. Have fun with. Charlie, and stay safe.” He whispered walking her to her train “i’ll see you at Hogwarts, Charlie’s bringing be back to the castle” she smiled he nodded “i love you Voice. Write as soon as you get there okay?” He looked at her “of course Heart. Im your voice of reason” she smiled at him “im your heart. You keep me out of trouble” “you keep me human” “we keep eachother safe” they say together he kisses her goodbye as he helps her onto the train “i’ll see you in a week.” He whispered “one week dont mess my bedroom up. And no reading my journal on the bedside table. Its just prank ideas” she smiled knowing she left it for him with his and Georges name on it also knowing he was going to go through them “you temptress!” He said in fake hurt “you love me anyway” she teased back “I’ll love you always” he smiled

She walked up to cabin number six and knocked on the door “coming!” Charlie’s voice rang stomping down the stairs he opened the door “who is…. Lia?” Shock comes across his face “WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GET YOU IN AN HOUR!” He yelled amused “i just thought id surprise you. Hurry up i wanna show you the dragon” she said excitedly he chuckles following her in “wheres Snow?” She asked “out in the field” he replaied taking her bag and opening it “lets see the dragon” he said climbing in she follows Charlie into the bag smiling “hes over here. His name is Hiccup.” She said leading him to the enclosure to an adolescent Hebirdean Black “Hiccup!” She yelled softly he opened his eyes pupils dialaed as he opened his wings and pounced on her licking her face “Hiccup hiccup stop!” She laughed “come on! Hiccup let me up! Theres someone i want you to meet” she laughs as Charlies mouth drops to the floor “thank you.” She said when Hiccup finally let her up she pets his tongue looking up at Charlie “he cant fly. I found him in the forrest while helping Hagrid in the forrest.” She started as he moved his head to her shoulder “something ate off his tail fins. Ive been healing it the best i can. But this is out of my league” she smiles at Charlie as the dragon circles her in with his tail showing him the stub that once was a tail “he wont hurt you you can come closer” she said looking to Charlie “he’s a little protective of me. But he wont hurt you. I found him as a hatchling. Fred and i would take turns feeding him from a bottle.” She shrugged “he’s used to human interaction” she said as Charlie stepped closer to her “hold your hand out” she said “let him come to you” she whispered he sniffed the air “its okay Hiccup… hes a friend” she whispered to the dragon ‘no danger?’ He thought “no danger. We brought you to a safe space where you can grow and be taken care of. I cant take care of you full grown. But he can” she smiled to the dragon he moved to Charlie slowly putting his snout in the palm of his hand Charlie’s eyes widened he smiled a big smile to Artemis “Hes amazing Artemis” Charlie smiled “youre beautiful” he whispered to the dragon Hiccup closed his eyes and nodded to Charlie in respect “lets get him to his pen. I have his set up in back” Charlie said walking out of the bag “we’ll come get you when we’re in the enclosure Hic” she petted the dragon under his wing Charlie led her out side where the sanctuary was she took in the scenery and felt the warm sun on her face and smiled “its amazing out here Charlie bear” she said happily “i know. I never want to leave” he smiled “you look so grown up” he laughed “im not that grown up” she rolled her eyes at him “youre turning 16 this year.” He smiled “yeah. I know its kind of crazy innit?” She asked as he opened the gate “not crazy at all. It just sucks Percy Fred George Ron and Ginny get to see more of you than i do. I was your first friend need i remind you” he pouted “youre not my Friend Charlie” she said setting her bag down and unzipping it he looked at her hurt “youre more than that. Youre my big brother” she said dipping down into the bag his smile came back to his face as he shook his head Hiccup emerged from the bag and extended his wings “what do you think? Suitable?” She asked the dragon who just roared “Charlie!” A voice called out “there you are ive been looking all over for….. Lia?” Haukea asked “Hau!” She smiled launching herself at the girl who just laughed “what are you doing here?!? Charlie and i was supposed to get you from the train!” She hugged her back “i wanted to surprise my big brother” she smiled “and surprise it was. Having her knock on our door at 7 am sharp” he rolled his eyes at her “dont act like you dont love me Charlie” she rolled her eyes at him

“dont get snippy with me. I will flat rate you back to Fred” he threatened “did you let him know you got here okay?” Charlie asked following up his question “i sent him an Owl at the train station.” She smiled as he nodded “come on; Bill’s meeting us at the inn” Haukea said smiling at the two of them laughing and joking around

“So. Artemis’s room is this one. Ive put another bed in there for George. Lee my rooms this way” Apollo instructed opening the door for the weasley boys “What bed do you want?” George asked “i’ll take Arties. You take the other one” Fred shrugged his shoulders throwing his trunk on the foot of her bed when her hand writing on the top of the book she said not to read caught his attention he picked up the note and opened it ‘was only kidding. This is for you and George. Develop the ones you want. Trash the ones you dont. Your christmas presents should be under the tree christmas morning -A’ he chuckles at the note “Georgie. Artemis left us a surprise” he called over his shoulder flipping through the book at the prank ideas and half made inventions potion ingredients chemistry equations “looks like we can add some of this to our book” George said excitedly Apollo chuckled “you guys are so busted” Apollo said “SHE GAVE US PERMISSION!” Fred yelled in a scared tone holding up the note “i know i was just messing with you Fred. Come on i asked Kreacher to make lunch” Apollo laughed shaking his head “then after lunch i was thinking about playing a round of Quidditch” he smiled “or….. we can snoop through my sisters room” he smiled devilishly “maybe a game of exploding snap?” Lee suggested “thatd be perfect love” Apollo kissed him “I invited your mom and dad over to spend the night Christmas eve and Christmas” Apollo said smiling “theyll be here at 9am on the 24th. So. We have free reign till then” Apollo smiled “you wrote our mum?” George asked “she asked for the song mum used to sing her for her birthday so she could send her a howler and what not for her birthday” he shrugged “she said she wanted to make it like mum was still here for her. So i sent her what she would sing when i asked her to let you guys come here for winter. And to invite her and Arthur for Christmas” he said looking at George “does Art really like mum? I know she says she does but… i dont know. Mum can be a little much sometimes.” Georges voice came out soft and curious Apollo turned around and smiled “Molly was the first person that took the time to make her feel welcome in a place that was a home instead of contempt. The first adult that wasnt a teacher that didnt look at her like an elf, and tried to learn about her. Wasnt afraid to hug her or treat her with respect. Shes the first adult who had welcomed her in their home with kindness. Wrote her. Checked on her in the hospital wing. Refused to leave without her. Someone who cared about her the way… the way our mom did. For me it was our Aunt Altair. For her? It was Molly.” Apollo smiled “so if youre asking me if Artemis likes your mom. No. She doesnt like your mom. Its more than that. She loves your mom the way she loved…. The way she loved our mom” he smiled  he faced the twins and looked Fred in his eyes “Artemis. Shes. Shes special. She has only given her heart away to two people. Two people in her life. Besides my mom and dad. Two people in the world since we’ve been born. And thats you Fred. You and Molly” he smiled turning around and walking down the steps of the house into the kitchen “Artemis tries with the rest of us. Shes trying to let us in we just have to let her lead and follow in step. She loves George. Charlie Bill Percy Ginny she loves Ginny most no doubt. Even im a little Jealous of that Lee and i. But nobody gets what you and Molly some how got her to give to you. Just know that she truly does care about all of you even if she doesnt know how to show it” “ive never doubted that she didnt care. I didnt know she cared so deeply” George rubbed the back of his neck “she does” Apollo reassured George with a smile

“BILLY!” Artemis screams at the sight of him in front of the Inn they were staying at “Artie Tartie” he chuckled bringing her in for a hug “you ready?” Charlie asked Bill “ready for what?” Artemis asked “early birthday gift” Bill chuckled “we’re surprising the family for Christmas. We get to surprise mum and dad. Apollo planned everything. That way we can spend your actual birthday with you. Yeah. We heard about that missy. Big trouble” Bill said with a big smile on his face Artemis just blushed “i already said i was sorry twenty times” she looked to the ground “hey. Theyre not mad. Theyre just giving you a hard time” Haukea puts a hand on her shoulder “they know you felt really bad about not spending Christmas with Fred. Charlie wrote Apollo to invite the boys over for Christmas knowing that he was in correspondence with their mom. Apollo and Charlie planned the whole thing. You and the boys leave first thing Christmas eve.” Hau leans in close to whisper in her ear “and i got you something special to wear when you surprise Fred” she winks at Artemis earning a blush from her hours of Charlie and Snow showing them around Romania they get back to the inn. Where Artemis breaks off and sits on the balcony staring up at the stars twenty minutes pass when the door opens behind her and shuts she jumps slightly as the person pulls out a chair and sits next to her “you okay Tartie?” Bill’s deep voice calls out looking up at what she was looking at “yeah, im alright.” She said breathlessly “whats on your mind?” He asked cautiously. “Just what everyones saying about my dad” she slightly laughs. “What?” He smiles finally looking at her “this girl in our year. She keeps saying im a death eater in the making. A criminal just like him” she started pausing looking at bill who’s still looking at her “shes making me think wether or not to keep living in the wizarding world.” She lets out a sigh “id be happy living in the muggle world if it meant i could get away from the constant torment. I only stay because of your family and Hermione. If i didnt have them… id be long gone from here” she sighed out “someones bullying you? Because of Sirius?” Bill asked confused “it wasnt just because of Sirius. It started after our first potions class. When Snape praised Fred and i for acing the two potions we made.” She looked at him “she asked if i was sleeping with the professor” Artemis shrugged “i was eleven. And ever since then. Because i get high marks its gotta be because im sleeping with the professors. It got worse after what happened in my third year. Fred not leaving the hospital wing…. She started to i cant explain it good. It just spiraled worse from there. She kept trying to compete for Fred and George’s attention which didnt bother me until she started to say her and Fred slept together after Quidditch practice in fourth. About me being pathetic then this year when dad broke out of Azkaban and we finally got together she…” Artemis held her hand out he took her hand and she showed him everything “its like im alone. When i know im not. And it… it just really hurts and i dont wanna ruin Fred and George’s friendships because not everythings about me and i know that. I just. Gah.” She chuckled “so its not all about your dad. It’s about everything in general” she nodded to Bill “what do you need from me? Silent support? Advice? Me to listen and problem solve?” He asked

“just sitting here with me is enough” she smiled at him “then we’ll sit” he smiled at her “you know. When i was a kid. My dad would take me to the london zoo. And point out all the different animals.” She offered “he’d take me out on what he’d call ‘dates’ to show me how a man should treat me.” She smiled “he’d say ‘Naleo. The man you decide to be with should be understanding and patient. Kind and gentle. Never rushing to plunge into the next step. Open your doors and let you fight on your own. But always be in arms reach if you need him Find a man that’ll respect you, love and nurture you. And always know. No one will ever love you as much as i do.’” She sighed out “i just never thought that id find him so soon” she smiled up at the stars “your dad, he sounds like a wonderful person. I hope to actually meet him someday” Bill smiled looking back up at the stars she was staring at “so. Howd you and fred?” He asked “he told me, without telling me” she looked at him “you lost me” he chuckled “after Angelina said something along the lines of no one would want me and that Fred should pick her. She could give him everything left Traylawneys class and went to DADA. For detention. He followed me told me i wasnt pathetic. That im all that and more tons of guys would want to kiss me. Then because the professor was right there. We went into the bag. He took my hands and he brought me to my thunderbirds pen. And started talking to the bird. He said everything he wanted to say. Then he turned to me, said the most romantic things ive ever heard… how could i not tell him I didn’t feel the same way and more?” She shrugged. “Not when he looked at me like i was the only girl that mattered to him. Like how ive been looking at him since first year. Like he was no. Like he is the only one keeping me grounded to the earth. Your brother.. he… hes the only one” she stuttered Bill took a breath out “Charlie and i knew from the first prank. Charlie wrote me the day after it happened and every prank after that. All his attempts to prank you back. How hed act around you. Mum knew he loved you before he did himself. She knew when he willingly came back to you in the hospital wing. Hopped in your cot and held you as you cried. How he comforted you. How he fought the adults to stat with you. And how he protected you. From a grown adult pinned down under you from the bed” Bill smiled gently they talked for hours 

i found a love… for me… Darling just dive right in… and follow my lead.“According to Apollo’s last letter they should be out at the burrow picking up mum and dad. Ginny was finishing getting ready. We’re free to apparate over Lee’s finishing the final touches” Charlie smiled to bill from across their room in london walking over to the door that connected the girls room to his and Bills well i found a girl, beautiful and sweet oh i never knew you were that someone waiting for me….. “we’re almost ready!” Haukea calls from the bedroom “do i really have to wear this?” She groaned out adjusting the red straps of her dress. “Youll knock him dead” Hau said with a smile. He knocked on the door “come in” Artemis said “it seems a little formal for Christmas” she complained cause we were just kids when we fell in love not knowing what it was “im sure whatever it is its…” Charlie’s words caught in his throat as she smoothed out the dress at her waist “i feel stupid… and fat.” She muttered under her breath i will not give you up this time.. darling just kiss me slow your heart is all i own and in your eyes youre holding mine “just what did you guys plan that i need to wear this?” She looked up to Hau glancing to Charlie who was still staring at her “is… is it too much?” She asked him he held out his hand taking hers and kissing it “its perfect you look stunning little sister” he smiled Baby im dancing in the dark with you between my arms as he led her down the stairs “may i apparate you?” He asked with a cheesy grin on his face “why thank you sir Charles” she smiled back a pop could be heard from the upper level of grimmuald place “okay. You stay here. And dont cime out until you get the signal” Charlie said as he got into place bearfoot on the grass listening to our favorite song on the steps of Grimmuald place “cutting it close there Charlie” Lee groaned. “Hush. It was Haukea’s fault!” He grumbled when you said you looked a mess i whispered underneath my breath but you heard it Harry just chuckled from his spot “Fred and George better love us for this. We did this for them” Ron rolled his eyes the door opened Molly and Arthur dressed in their finest clothes with the twins reluctantly in fancy robes darling you look perfect tonight that Apollo insisted they wear “whats going on?” George asked well i found a woman. Stronger than anyone i know she shares my dreams and i hope someday i’ll share her home seeing Bill at the top step Charlie two steps down from him Lee two steps down from Charlie Ron two steps down from Lee and Harry at floor level i found a lover to carry more than just my secrets to carry love to carry children of our own who just winked at the twins “Fred you stand here” Molly positioned “And George you stand here” she pushed him to his spot we are still kids but we’re so in love fighting against all odds  Artemis was fidgeting with her dress when suddenly the door opens to Hermione comes out in a stunning lavender dress “Artie?” She asked surprised “Mia?” I know we’ll be alright this time darling just hold my hand be my girl and i’ll be your manYou look amazingg no you look so beautiful what they talked over eachother when a ball of light came to them “should we?” Artemis nodded to Hermione following the ball of light arms linked arms walking down the stairs the boys looked up at the two girls “Miss Black, Miss Granger, your company awaits” Bill said i see my future in your eyes baby iiiiim dancing in the dark with you between my arms bearfoot on the grass listening to our favorite song motioning down the stairs  “do you have any idea whats going on?” Artemis whispered to her

“no clue” they walked down Freds eyes shot up to the stairs seeing Artemis his mouth dropped open she was still looking down to her feet Molly smiled at her boys who looked dumbstruck at the two beautiful girls walking down the steps when i saw you in that dress looking so beautiful i dont deserve this darling you look perfect tonight Artemis looks up and her breath catches in her throat seeing him looking up at her with so much love in his eyes she smiles a big smile he stares at her Fred moves to the bottom of the steps holding out his hand she reaches out to take his hand baby im dancing in the dark you between my arms bearfoot on the grass “Gideon…” she whispers to him he smiles “Kahalialaulani” he breathed out putting her hand on his shoulder holding one hand placing his free hand on her waist pulling her closer to her suddenly it started snowing in the house she looked up at Molly who had her wand in her hand motioning her to look up listening to our favorite song “now i have faith in what i see…. Now i know ive met an angel in person.. and You look perfect… i dont deserve this… you look perfect tonight” Fred whispered watching her eyes go from his mom to up they see the mistletoe above their heads he looks back down to find shes looking at him dancing slowly in his arms she smiles up at him he brings his lips down to hers gently ghosting over hers she presses her lips to his taking her hand out of his wrapping her arms around his neck his hands firmly on her waist a camera flashes they break apart to see Apollo holding a camera “this makes every headache i had planning this worth it!” He scrams holding almost identical photos up for them to see George dipping hermione under the mistletoe and Fred and Artemis slowly kissing she smiles at Apollo “was the dress your doing too?” She asked “oh honey. I wish. No. That was Molly” he points behind them they spent the night dancing away “happy christmas Voice, i love you” he whispered as he spun her around “happy Christmas Heart” she smiled

The next morning Artemis woke up to shuffling in the jitchen she walked in and saw Bill pouring the hollandaise sauce on the eggs Benedict she smiled “you got good at that Sir William” she teased “ah, mistress Artemis i have only learned from the best” he bows as they both chuckle at the playful banter between them “sleep well?” He asked as she went for the coffee “well enough cramming in the library” she stretched her arms over her head “you could’ve kicked George and Fred out of your room” he cocked an eyebrow at her “i felt bad. Its okay the couch in the library was comfortable and Mia makes a good cuddle buddy” she winked at Bull who rolled his eyes “you do your yoga yet? Youre cranky without it.” He rolled his eyes at Artie “shut up i am notttt” ahe chuckled “point proven. sit down. Drink your coffee. Everyones going to be up soon” he smiled “yes sir mr. William sir!” He rolled his eyes at her “call me that again and we’ll have issues” he poked her with his spatula she giggled “yes Bill i did my yoga. It helps” “how was it last night did we do okay?” He asked “it was amazing… Freds never looked at me like that before.” Bill looked at her “youre crazy. Thats how he’d ever look at you. You shouldve seen his face when he saw you with Ginny for the first time Artemis blushed a deep shade of red “we didnt bet ok you two for nothing” Bill added “you guys bet on us? Who’s we” Fred’s deep voice came from behind her he kissed her on her head “morning beautiful, sleep well?” He asked she hued in agreement “thanks for a wonderful night. I had fun” she said to the air “me. Mum. Dad. Charlie, we all bet when you two would get together.” “Apollo and i bet ourselves i owe his big head three sugar quills.” Lee rolled his eyes coming down the steps Hermione yawned as she entered the kitchen “morning you three” Bill said looking at Apollo Lee and Mione “coffee and tea is on the counter sit. The rest should be down soon” “mione if you wanna go wake George Ron and Harry? Theyre snoring logs up there” Fred smiled she nodded with a small smile. When Molly and Arthur came down she smiled a big smile “how was the master bedroom? Was the bed comfortable enough?” “It was just fine dear. Thank you” Molly patted her head her smile never faded from her face after breakfast was over Molly announced it was time for presents they all went to the drawing room like usual. The kids got knitted wear from Molly and Arthur on Artemis’s tag she read ‘to Artie; from Dad and Mum’ she looked up to Molly and Arthur in shock Molly smiled at her “go on then. Open your gift” Arthur motioned with his hand she carefully opened the burlap sack  and pulled out a beautiful jewelry box from the bag she gasped-running her hand over the carved  thunderbird on the cover she looked back to them “Molly.. Arthur… this is too much!” She said looking back at them “i cant… this must’ve… this is too..” Molly held up her hand cutting her off “we used what we wouldve spent on school supplies to get our kids something nice each. You can. And you will accept this gift” Molly smiled at her “but im not.. we’re not…” “you are. I wouldnt have signed the tag From Dad and Mum if you weren’t Artemis” Arthur said reading the paper “But… h….” Molly just hugged her “youve been mine since you called me mom in diagon alley.” She kissed the top of her head she froze in Mollys arms closing her eyes letting a single tear fall out of her eyes “ARTEMIS YOU DIDNT!” George yelled ripping the paper off of the broom Molly pulled back looking at her twins “is this what i think……” Fred they held up the thunder bolt brooms “Voice” he said looking from the broom to her “we split it.” Apollo said they all looked at him. “Three ways. Me. Artie. And uncle Jake.” He shrugged. “Dont be too mad. Its Aunty Tears way of saying. ‘Welcome to the Black/Scamander family’” he rolled his eyes. Kissing Lee. “She bought me one too for Hufflepuff team” he held up his broom

“Oh. Look what the cat dragged back in. I thought you wouldve gotten eaten by a dragon. Harry. Package for you under the tree” Angelina said rolling her eyes walking up the stairs to her dorm room Harry looked under the tree and un wrapped it “Artemis did you and Apollo get this?” He said opening the handle of a broom that said Firebolt “no, we only got you that portrait of your mom and dad from that muggle painter.” She shrugged Harry it could be from Sirius you shouldnt use that broom” Hermione said “you dont know if hes trying to hurt you. Or Artemis and Apollo. He murdered 13 people! You shouldnt trust it. Or him.” “whats that supposed to mean” she crosses her arms over her chest clearly upset at what Hermione just said George looked between her and Artemis “my dad would never hurt us he loves us more than he loved our mom. He loves Harry.” she continued “you dont know that! He was just in azkaban for 12 years! You were a baby when he went in!” Artemis’s eyes widened and tears came to her face “youre saying just because i was three when he went in i dont know my own dad? Do you not remember i remember everything. Everything. Apollo and i both do.” She crosses her arms “im saying you three should be careful! And dont be dumb! Hes a criminal and we should treat him as such!” “What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty. What are you one of those people who think me and Apollo are just like him?” Artemis challenges Hermione falters looking to George “dont look at him. this is between us what do you play into those rumors that people have been saying abput us. Death eaters in the making huh?” Artemis starts to raise her voice Hermione looked at her with pity trying to find the words to de escalate the situation because yes. At one point she did think that about Artemis and Apollo when she found out she was a Black she saw hermione’s memory of asking Ron if he thought Artemis is who she really says she is and if he thinks shes just acting to get to Harry and Hermione saying that Harry shouldnt trust Apollo and her and Artemis sees it “you thought i was lying when i was being nice to you?!? When i offered to be your friend after Ron made you cry and when i saved your ass from a troll!! You asked Ron if he thought i was jusr fucking acting to get to my god brother?!? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW!!” “Artie that was a long time ago!” “TWO YEARS IS NOT A LONG TIME HERMIONE!” “Artemis calm down” fred said gently “NO! IM NOT CALMING DOWN SHES ONLY FRIENDS WITH ME BECAUSE HARRY CHOSE TO BELIEVE IN WHO I WAS AS A PERSON! THIS ENTIRE THING WAS A SHAM!” She yelled back at Fred. “You tried to turn Harry against us?!?” She screamed “DID IT FUCKING WORK!! Youre just waiting for the other shoe to drop arent you! News flash hermione theres no other fucking shoe ive never done ANYTHING to prove other wise!” “Artemis… im i… im sorry i” she stutter ed “skrew you Granger. Find a new best friend.” Artemis said under her breath bumping Hermione’s shoulder “Artie please!” Hermione called after her walking away “let me talk to her” Fred gave Hermione a reassuring smile Fred chasing after her “VOICE! VOICE SLOW DOWN!” Fred called out “if youre going to make me apologize to her im not because you didnt see what i saw in her eyes! I SAW WHAT SHE THOUGHT OF ME! I SEEN IT! everyone thinks it! I cant be here!” She yelled walking to Remus’s class room tears flowing down her face“

“just leave me alone!” She yelled Fred grabbed her by the elbow “Artemis. Take your necklace out” Fred just smiles “why?” She looked at him still crying “just take your necklace out love.” He smiled softer she holds the thunder bird in her hand Fred taps the charm making the words enlarge “this was what i promised you when i gave you this necklace i promised to Love you. To be your home. Eternity. To be your peace… This charm? It means eternity Artemis. So no matter how much you scream at me to leave you alone or to go away. Im not. Because im your heart. And i need to keep you human. And most of all i need to keep you safe. I love you im so deeply in love with you, that youre my home.. youre my peace.. with you everythings better and youre my eternity i love you” he said grabbing her hands “i love you…” he whispered again leaning his forehead on hers “i love you, and i’ll keep saying i love you til you believe me when i say it again” his breath hot on her lips “thank you Heart” she closed her eyes “i love you” she whispered “entirely too much may i add” he chuckled “no i want to know just how much you love me 24/7” Fred smiled a big smile

“Voice you know everyone has Bias’s right? And bias’s can change. Just because she thought that before doesnt mean she thinks that now” he brushes her hair behind her face as she leans on the bridge “it just hurts and im angry is that not okay?” She bit back “anger is understandable Love. But i dont want you to throw away one of the best friendships you have over an ill thought when you were first getting to know each other” Fred held her hand “im sorry Honey. Im just really upset right now i dont mean to be a bitch” Artemis breathed out “Honey?” He asked with a playful look on his face “would you rather me call you Sugar? Or Stud? Sugarlips?” She chuckled “nah. honeys good. And youre not a bitch. You being upset is understandable, nobody blames you” Fred shrugged “we all know your dad and brother are sensitive areas for you” he shoved his shoulder into hers “did you ever think bad of me?” She asked looking at him “go ahead” he smiled looking at her deep into her eyes “you can look. I’ll show you everything like you showed me everything” he whispered he showed her his childhood his life his thoughts about his family his insecurities and needs of reassurance then to his first memory of her ‘shes so pretty… her eyes are like sunsets….’ To on the boats ‘annoying brat why does she have to give me those adorable puppy dog eyes shes bloody beautiful’ he thought to himself looking down the next time Fred glances up seeing the castle come into sight he quickly looks at her looking at the castle with such amazement “its so beautiful” she says to no one in particular “you are.” Fred mumbles under his breath Lee elbows his side “i heard that” he whispers to Fred “shut up Lee” Fred sinks down into his seat “you heard nothing” he grumbles to how she got quiet when Charlie asked about her last name how she looked sad and how someone as pretty as her shouldnt ever feel sad ‘who cares who her family is. Shes smart and funny’ he thought eating his roll to how he noticed her nose crinkled when she told a fib to Migonigal how helpless he felt when shed show up with bruises and cuts on her face the jealousy of his twin who was closer to her that he was but most of all him falling in love with her. So desperately in love with the girl he hated to love. How easy it was to love her to talk to her to be with her their first kiss how nervous he was to ask her to be his everything mostly how he felt that night sitting up talking to Lee and George ‘im not falling in love im already in love’ him telling Apollo and George hes in love with her as he held her as she slept the only thing he didnt show her was the ring Charlie gave him the money for “i only ever saw you My Pualena. not Sirius Black. Not the scary parts of you.. i saw you” he whispered. “You the amazing girl that somehow fell in love with a poor boy like me” she pulled him by his collar smashing her lips on his “shut up. Shut up and kiss me…. Please” he wrapped his arms around her waist and dipped her “dont need to tell me twice” he chuckled softly as he kissed her ��im not lying when i say i love you Voice” he whispered standing her back up and putting his forehead against hers “i know youre not. I just dont want to hurt you thats why i say to leave me alone when im mad” “you could never hurt me love” he whispered “Mione got my firebolt taken away” Harry huffed “im sorry. I need to talk to Artemis” he pulled her by her arm away from fred “harry hold on wait” “ITS OKAY VOICE I’ll MEET UP WITH YOU LATER!” He yelled she nodded “IM SORRY!” “NOTHING TO BE SORRY FOR!” He smiled shaking his head smiling

“Harry look if youre going to be scolding me about me and Hermione fighting give me a second and I’ll apologize when im calm” Artemis rubs the back of her neck “what? No. Naleo. I wasnt talking to you about that!” He rolled his eyes at her “oh then what?” She cocked her eye brows at him “she told professor Migonigal and she took my broom right before our game against hufflepuff and i just wanted to rant” he said running a hand through his hair he rants for 15 minutes as she listens to him intently when he finally looked at her “you know. I never saw you as untrustworthy Artemis” he smiled softly “thank you Harry that means a lot” she smiled “Ron and i both said that she was thinking too much into things and that your kindness shouldnt be mistaken for something bad. Shes only ever asked about that stuff once” “you can look if you need too” he said before she could speak she smiled at him and shook her head “I believe you love, i was just angry” she hugged him “dont get me wrong. We’re all angry” Harry shook his head “how are you so old for your age?” She asked earning a chuckle from him “youll win with or without the new broom. Youre an amazing seeker.” She smiled he just hugged her “lets get you back to Fred its almost dinner” he shook his head “can you tell Fred to meet me in my bag?” She smiled to him he nodded she was seated with her bowtruckle when there was a knock at the door revealing George she looked at him gave him a sad smile and looked back down “listen if youre going to yell at me can we save it for later? I just need to cool down before apologizing” she breathed out. “I wasnt going to yell at you” he sighed “im sorry i yelled at your girlfriend.” She simply stated “I understand why you did” he shrugged “if you think that me and my siblings dont fight youve got another thing  coming. All youve gotta do is make it right some how. And so does she. She shouldnt have said that about your dad” he gave her a soft smile “wheres Fred?” “How many times do i have to tell you. You. Dont. Call. Me. Fred” he rolled his eyes at her “alright sugar lips” she rilled her eyes back at him George snickers as Fred shoots him a glare “Hermione’s really torn up about the fight. She just wants you three to be safe” George said cautiously “i realize that.” Artemis sighed. “Hes my dad. What do you expect?” She teared up a little “how could some one so gentle and kind to everyone be so hated by people that never bothered to know him” she cried a little “he was with me. The night Lily and James died. He was with my mom.” They looked at her shocked “i had a nightmare. Which seemed so insignificant at the time. But it was about a man. A man who would force me to do something really terrible… he had someone i cared for so deeply that if i didnt.. anyway. Dad and mum were holding me. As i cried on October 31st 1981. There was no way he couldve betrayed prongs and Lily. My dad was with me. Apollo and i were still in bunkbeds and he.. he went to wake them and dad was in bed. He pulled his hair and said tita nightmare help… he came running to me like he always did..” She whispered looking down “ive never told anyone that. Mum died fighting to prove my dads innocence” she got softer “im sorry.. i didnt know” Hermione’s voice came out of the door way her head shot to where she stood “i was just trying to keep my friends safe” her voice scared and soft Artemis held out her arms and Hermione ran into them “im sorry… i really thought i was right” “i know kid. Its okay. Im sorry too” Artemis hugged her

 “i really thought he would hurt you and Harry i didnt want…” “shhhhhh Mia its okay…. Its okay” Artemis cooed “this is Benny. he seems to be quite attached to me no clue why. I might order another one. A mate for him. Then we can have a family of bowtruckles!!” Artemis smiled at Hermione handing her the tiny plant like creature “hes kinda cute isnt he?” Hermione commented “very” Fred and George highfive eachother “you two are not off the hook” Artemis said still facing Hermione their eyes widened she pointed to herself “legitimins” to them “pranksters who think they can pull the wool over my eyes really Freddie? Its been five years.” gaining a laugh from George “sorrry Freddie for getting you in the dog house” “shut up George it was your idea” “no it wasnt Heart” Artie turned around facing him “i love you.. thank you for not giving up on me” she smiled he smiled “i’ll never give up on you. Id move heaven and earth to find you.” He walked up and kissed her she smiled “MISS ARTEMIS! Dinners ready!” Prim said “thank you primmy” she smiled kissing Fred again “you have elves?!” Hermione yelled “elves that earn 3 galleons a week and can leave whenever they want. They chose to stay. Thats Prim, Kreacher is back home, and Dobby’s on vacation” Artemis turned in Freds arms to face her “youre my pualena… youre so beautiful god knows i love you… youre all i need” Artemis hums out as she walks to the pitch wearing Fred’s spare jersey  “Pualena.. you take my breath away Pualena” Fred Wraps his arms around her waist broom and bat in hand “you know lately all i think about is holding you closely and never leaving your side i’ll keep you warm” he sung in her ear “i love it when you sing for me baby” he whispered “i wasnt singing for you Handsome. I was singing cause im happy” she pulled away to look at his face “im happy too love” he gives her a kiss “good luck out there today Heart” she smiled “thank you love, i’ll have my eye on you the entire time” he smiled “i love you” she repeated “i love you.” He nodded letting go and mounting his broom “good luck out there Ollie” she smiled he bowed to her “you two are adorable you know that?” Hermione giggles as she walked over after kissing George “you both were made for each other” Angelina scoffs “as if” she muttered walking on to the pitch “i love you Voice” he kisses her cheek “i love you” she smiled “knock those hufflepuffs off their asses” she smiled linking arms with Hermione walking over to their seats “you think that theyll win this one?” She asked as they got ready to play “i mean if they want Ollie to be happy they will” she rolled her eyes. Linking arms with Hermione watching as Harry and Cedric both going for the snitch when a Dementor comes on to the field and gets attacked by a dementor she snapped her fingers once she saw the dementor sucking the life force out of him she appeared right behind him as he fell getting on the broom she cork skrews down grabbing Harry’s hand before he could fall completely to the ground “PROTEGO!” She yelled casting the protection charm on him “spongify” she yelled pointing to the ground as she gently places him on the ground him bouncing and rolling and pulling back up level to the ground “TIME!” She held out both hands hovering 10 feet off the ground Cedric stopping the bludger and the snitch all the balls stopping Angelina holding the Quaffel the headmaster and Deputy headmaster coming out to the field “put me in. I can finish the game for Harry” “THATS AGAINST THE RULES!” Slytherin yelled “Hufflepuff should win by Forfeit but seeing as how your seeker was attacked i shall allow it” raising his arms she was in Qudditch robes “Ms. Black i suggest you finish the game quickly as you and Mr. Scamander need to be with your brother” Albus smiled she nodded “what do ya say Pollo? Like old times?” She smiled deviously

“IM NOT GOING EASY ON YOU BLACK!” He yelled “WOULDNT DREAM OF IT SCAMANDER!” she let out a laugh flying up “BEGIN!” Dumbledore called she and Cedric raced neck and neck for the snitch “watch out pretty boy im right behind you” she taunted as she leaned forward the snitch suddenly went down she dropped her hand “ARTEMIS WATCH OUT!” George yelled she pulled up going in a loop around the Bludger catching up to the snitch “CEDRIC AND ARTEMIS NECK IN NECK WHO’S GONNA CATCH THE SNITCH! JOHNSON SCORES ANOTHER 10POINTS GRYFFINDOR’S AHEAD BY FIVE THIS IS GOING TO BE A CLOSE CALL!” Lee’s voice commentated from the crowd she glanced up to where Angelina was flying racing downward against Cedric seeing Hufflepuffs beater hit a bludger directly to her “JOHNSON!” Artemis called “BLUDGER!” She warned before the Bludger could come in contact with her “THANKS!” She smiled to Angie reaching for the snitch again leaning as far up as she could Cedric pulled away she played chicken with the ground grabbing the snitch pulling up handle of the broom mere millimeters away from the ground-grass flying as she pulled up with a grunt flying up next to Oliver holding up the snitch “here you go Captain” “BLACK CATCHES THE SNITCH GRYFFINDOR WINS THE MATCH!!!” Lee yells as she flew next to Fred pulling his jersey to her kissing him catching him by surprise the crowd cheers as she presses her lips to his sweetly he just chuckled “you were great as always” Fred kisses her back smiling-into the kiss he brings his hand to her face pulling her in again they pull apart “lets go check on your brother” Fred said floating down “STOP BEING A SHOW OFF ARTEMIS!” Apollo yelled flying to Lee leaning in to kiss him “better luck next time?” Lee smiled “it wasnt fair. We were playing against my sister” Apollo shrugged the black dog watched in amazement at his two children “have a walk off the astronomy tower see how you feel” Artemis rolled her eyes at Ron “i reckon i look better than he does having fell 80 feet” Harry jested “welcome back to the living love” she smiled at Harry “Artie…” he smiled hugging her “i caught you just in time and won your match” she filled him in “you can thank me later. Im going to go shower. Please do make your brother feel better. Hes over there pouting in the corner with Lee GET OVER IT SCAMANDER!” “SHUT UP BLACK!” He yelled back taunting her “i’ll let you beat me next time we play. Maybe we can rematch for practice if Olivers up to it” she shrugged “i’ll talk to Cedric” he smiled as she walked out of the hospital wing “Black wait.” She heard a feminine voice call out she stopped “im sorry” Angelina said softly “for everything. And thanks for not letting me get hit with a bludger” Artemis turned around “study groups on Wednesday, in the library table 7 after lunch. Percy Alicia Penny and Ron wanted to start with charms. Were doing potions too. Come” she smiled to Angelina looking into her eyes confused “youre a good person, and a great chaser. You just needed to give up the competitive edge and we could be friends it took me saving you from a bludger. And if you really wanna know, you should ask Oliver out ok a date. He’s been watching you for a while” she said walking down the hall sighing out opening the door to the DADA class room Remus looked up as she went into her bag he shook his head “well that was close” he huffed out looking under his desk to the black dog as they ponder over the map ‘Peter Pettegriew’s name walking next to Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger

Fred walked beside Artemis holding her hand through the courtyard with Harry Hermione George and Ron they eyed down the cloaked executioner sharpening his blade as they exited the bridge heading down to Hagrids hut “i cant believe that theyre going to kill Buckbeak its too horrible” Hermione grumbled “i know we tried kid” Artemis sighed out “just got worse!” Ron scoffed looking at Draco Crabbe and Goyle Hermione broke out of George’s grasp storming over to Draco the group trailing close behind look whose here!” One of them said “come to see the show!” Draco said with a smile “you!” Hermione yelled “you foul loathsome evil little cockroach!” She yelled pointing her wand at him “Hermione no!” Ron called out “why. Might teach the bloody fool a lesson” Artemis shrugged at him “HES NOT WORTH IT!” George put a hand on her shoulder she lowered her wand turning around only to turn back and punch Draco in the face he fell back they ran off “that felt good” Hermione smiled at George Artemis let go of Freds hand and walked up to Hermione “good girl” Artemis praised she gulped down George smirked at Hermione knowingly “next time thumb out of your fist, dont curl your knuckles in less chance of breaking your fingers and wrist” Artie demonstrated hitting her palm with a made fist  “show me” she said holding out her palm to Hermione “move with your hip. More power” Artemis instructed Hermione punched her hand “ten points Granger. Did such a good job. Good girl.” She smiled Hermione flushed George just chuckled lowly they head down to Hagrids hut seeing Buckbeak Artemis kneels next to him “im so sorry Buckbeak” she starts to cry “i wish i could hide you somewhere” she hugs on to the creatures neck as the rest went to Hagrids hut ‘dont cry. All will be okay Artemis’ Buckbeak looked into her eyes “you dont deserve this” she sobbed more ‘go inside with Hagrid.’ He instructed after one last hug “We’ll stay with you Hagrid” Hermione called “YOU FIVE WILL DO NO SUCH THING! You will not see something like tha.” “Us five? Theres six of us here” Fred asked confused “Fred yar datin her. Has she ever listened to the word ‘no’” Hagrid smiled gesturing to Artemis “shes going to stay with Dumbledore im sure” he huffed out “even though i don’ want her to see.” He shook his head “i know what you mean” Fred huffs out with a small smile rocks soon started flying everywhere chasing the six of them out of the hut “im staying” Artemis insisted “i’ll meet up with you later. You five get out of here” Artemis said Fred kissed her as they snuck out the back door the Five watched from the top of the hill as Artemis mouthed ‘go’ where they see the execution of Buckbeak Scabbers bit ron as they chased the rat to the whomping willow Artemis flashes to Ron who “HERMIONE HARRY FRED GEORGE RUN! ITS THE GRIM!” Pointing behind them as the dog snarled jumping over the four of them her breath caught in her throat seeing padfoot grab Rons leg dragging him under the tree Artemis was first under the tree followed by Hermione and Harry Twins trailing not too far behind “guys dont!” Artemis called out as they walked into the room “stay there” she said to the group where a giant black dog is biting Rons leg “Padfoot?” he stops snarling and drops the leg “d….. dad?” She said softly voice breaking he looks at her “its me….. its Naleo. Your Naleo its your voice Dad its Voice” she drops down to her knees crying “you came back?” he shifts into himself “Leo…” he hugs her tightly she let out a shakey breath “youre here” she cried closing her hands on his tattered clothes “Daddy” she breathed out putting her hand on his face showing him everything 

“Naleo….” He sobbed kissing her head into his chest he cups her face in his hand “youre even more beautiful than the day i lost you” he kisses her forehead holding her to his side she clung to him for dear life afraid he would disappear before her eyes again Sirius’s grip tightened around her “im not going anywhere Naleo” he whispered “right here.. with you and Apollo” he said softer his wand to the rat Remus breaks into the shack yelling continues “I DID MY WAITING! TWELVE YEARS OF IT IN AZKABAN! REMUS MY DAUGHTER! MY SON! IVE MISSED EVERYTHING!!!” Sirius yelled “SHE WAS TORTURED!! RAPED!!! MY BABY GIRL!!!” He yelled George’s eyes widened as he looked to her cowering in Sirius’s arm “IM KILLING THE RAT! ITS BECAUSE OF HIM! HE BETRAYED LILY AND JAMES!” He yelled “EXPELLIARMUS!” Hermione yelled disarming Snape arguing insued the shrieking shack when Sirius was fed up enough “SHUT UP SNEVELLUS! IM KILLING THE TRAITOR RAT!” Sirius yelled they chase him out of the shack where the moon hung high in the sky Remus transformed “MY FRIEND HAVE YOU BEEN TAKING YOUR POTIONS?” Sirius asked turning into Padfoot fighting the wolf Snape’s body shielding the six of them hearing her father Yelp Artemis climbed over into Harrys shoulders “Voice what are you!” Fred yelled as her hand turned into a paw leaping over Snape turning into a magnificent black lioness cutting Snape’s cheek with her back claw roaring out to the wolf charging Remus everyones eyes widened at her she let out a roar catching Remus off guard lunging taking the wolfs throat into her fangs her getting cut with his claws as he scratches her off she roars pawing the wolf away from Severus Harry Hermione Fred George and ron “you four! Get out of here now!” He yelled to the twins Hermione Ron and Harry Sirius and Artemis leading him into the forest where she clawed at Remus’s back biting his head the wolf flung her into an oak tree near a lake instantly knocking her out she formed back into herself bleeding from her head as Remus ran off Sirius sits next to her shaking her gently “Naleopilimehana wake up we have to go” hundreds of dementors surrounded them as hes trying to wake her up from Remus flying her into a tree. when a stag chases all the dementors away. she wakes up in the infirmary next to Rons bed “DAD?!?” She yelled Fred looking up to her “voice youre alright thank heavens” he showered her with kisses “im fine Heart i promise.

Harry Apollo and Artemis walk into the DADA classroom “will i see you this summer?” Remus stopped packing as he heard Artemis’s voice he turned to see Harry and Artemis walking in “Artemis i am so..” she held her hand up “i seem to recall almost killing you as well uncle moon” she smiled at him “you were only protecting your dad boyfriend and friends” “stay with us.” “Pili im not going to be your burden i am not a stray” Remus shook his head “hardly youre family. Apollo and i take care of family, i kinda need you with me” Artemis looks up at him as he listened to her “im not at home for majority of the year. And im quite busy with my muggle studies and Hogwarts attendance, so im spread a little too thin. Mum said that you had experience feeding and caring for the animals while in law school, so ive re upped mums work contract with her to fit my needs and schedule” She breathed out shaking her head “i need someone to keep Padfoot from peeing on my living room rug, care for my animals, handy man around the house my roof has been leaking above the attic and i cant be bothered with that OWLS and my first set of finals for muggle college are just around the corner i’ll have you know. I can pay you 15 galleons every two weeks to be the house caretaker, animal feeder, and manage my elves, both my Gringots and muggle bank accounts stocks and bonds my investments, Apollo’s share of the investments both muggle and wizard truly a headache” she wipes a tear from her eyes “Harrys investment account needs to be watched and grown so he’s taken care of” “Artemis just what are you talking about i dont have a….” She keeps talking “I can offer you one week a month off that will coincide with the full moon. Three days before and four days after to rest and recover. Mandatory. You get Saturdays and Sundays off and every 40hrs an hour of vacation time will be added to a separate time table like the houseelves. Fullmoon weeks are All Paid of course. Ive already charmed your pen in the basement its a free space where you can run free and not hurt anyone youd be surrounded by animals and Padfoot undoubtedly would rough house with you. During the full moon Kreacher and Prim both have been Briefed and know of the healing potions and who have been trained to brew your wolfsbane. All you have to do is sign the employment form and you can move in on Wednesday” she shrugged handing him his contract he looked at her dumbfounded “read it over. Get it to me or Apollo before you leave” she smiled “No more cages Remus… i promise” she cupped his cheek “how can i say no?” He choked out hugging her to him “you remind me so much of Athena its scary” he chuckled into her hair when they pulled away from eachother he hands Harry the map “now that im not a teacher here. I dont feel bad about giving you this” he smiled to Harry “did you ask Petunia and Vernon if you could come for summer?” She asked “yeah. They said i could stay for the second half.” He smiled “good” she smirked at him “i love you kiddo.” She kisses his head “i love you too Artemis” he hugged her walking to the train 

When she got to the train she sat in her compartment waiting for Fred Lee and George crawling into her bag she sets her robes on the desk chair going to unbutton her shirt stripping it off her body she groans as the scars contort “hey Voice? You in here?” Fred asked as she turned around meeting his gaze he eyes her down taking in every curve “yeah love whats up?” She asked totally unfazed that he was ogling her-she turns her back again unbuttoning her shorts pulling them down her slender legs tossing her school pants to the side his voice caught in his throat as he shut the door turning around to still his beating heart seeing her like that “nothing sorry i didnt knock first” he started “Heart turn around” she rolled her eyes at him he turns around keeping his eyes trained on her face “youre my boyfriend. Youre allowed to see me like this” she reached up to cup his face she grabbed his hand and placed it on her hip above her underwear “youre allowed to touch me… like this” she whispered trailing her hand with his up her torso and just under her breast “i dont want to rush you” he breathed out gasping when he pulled her closer to him she pressed her body to his kissing him “I want you to be my first too Gideon” she smiled reading his mind turning around a slight whine left his lips as she pulled up her tights “did you want to try something now?” She asked buttoning the shorts putting up her hair “not yet. I dont want to force you into anything” he said softer “you wouldn't be” she pulled her Nirvana shirt over her head “im ready to. If you are. I trust you with my life Heart” she smiled “now what is it?” She asked cocking her head pulling his jumper over her head “just when did you steal that?” Playful smile on his face she looked down at the sweater “sorry i….” “It looks better on you anyway” he smiled “youre incredibly beautiful Artemis absolutely perfect and…..” she blushes “i want you too love” she cut him off “ive been ogling you for years.” She shrugged he sat down at the desk “come here” he whispered pulling her into his lap kissing her desperately she instinctively pushed her hips down to his he groaned shoving a tongue in her mouth his hands going to her waist pulling her closer “touch me” she whined “Gideon” his hands went under her shirt squeezing her hips she let out a breathy moan “when we…. Our first time baby… i want to talk about boundaries okay?” He whispered against her lips “i want you… right here right now… but your first time deserves more romance and woo’ing that i cant give you now” “George Mia Apollo and Lee are coming” she kisses his head he lets go of her “IN HERE MIA GEORGE!” Fred yelled “let me take you out on a proper date over the summer.” He looked at her “and what would we do?” She smiled “im going to let you take me to muggle london, and we’re going to Romeo and Juliet” her eyes widened “Percy’s idea. He told me youve been talking about it non stop that you wanted to go. So i wrote mum and she gave me enough for two tickets and snacks. I managed to get first showing, and I’ll pick you up at 7” he smiled at how big her smile got “but you dont like Shakespeare” “but you do Pualena, and im in love with you” he brushed her hair out of her face “George got tickets for he and Mia too” George said walking in “Lee bought Apollo’s ticket” Lee said “why are we talking in third person?” Artemis asked “you two will be properly introduced to my dad then, he’s moving back in to Grimmuald place” she smiled “dont worry.” She patted Freds cheek “youll be fine. And besides Apollo and i have to be at the burrow Sunday for dinner anyway. Youll see me before first showing” she shrugged “Artemis can Lee spend the first half with us? His dads are going to be in france” Apollo started “Dads said it was alright if its alright with you” he shrugged at her “of course. Although both Sirius and Remus are going to be there” she smiled “thats no issue” Lee smiled at her “its settled then” she smiled at them

“DAD?!” Artemis yelled “IN THE KITCHEN ART!” He yelled back “dad id like you to meet someone” Apollo said softly Sirius turns around looking at his twins “this is Lee… my” “nice to meet you son, i assume youre staying?” Sirius asked “if thats alright sir” Lee smiled “as you probably know. This is Artemis’s house.” He smiled “so sit sit, tell me how you two met” he smiled “wheres uncle moon? I have to walk him through the basement” “library dear” he said smiling “thanks dad” she kissed his cheek before walking back to the library “uncle Remus?” She called out “hey love, over here” he smiled “id like to walk you through if you dont mind” she smiled “of course.” He said putting his book down following her “so moms animals are to the right… and mine are to the left. Heres yours” she said leading him into the open field with trees and open sky a charmed sun to always shine “it has a moon barrier that wont let you out until youre human again, no bars. No cages just an open field.” They walk around the field “the bank information is in the office to the back of the basement and my elves time table is to the far right” she instructed your room is Regulus’s old room im in dads old room Apollo is in the guest bedroom and dads in the master on the first floor.” “So. You tell Padfoot about Fred yet?” He sat and watched her charm the new pens she looked at him and back to her pen “i know he knows that im not single. Im just afraid he wont like him. Im kind of afraid of what you and Apollo has said about me and him. I just want Fred to have a fighting chance i really do see a future with him uncle moony” She sighs “he…. He filled my heart with the little things how he just knows how to comfort me and the things he does the little smile that never leaves his face how supportive and competitive he is. Hes the most beautiful person i have ever met and i used to think i needed so much to make myself whole and complete. But him loving me the way he does and is… he helped me see that i was already whole. It feels like the way dad loved mom” she whispered the last part he hugged her “Pili, thats the least of your worries” he smiled “we talked a little bit about how he made you his and want to know what he said?” Remus asked about to speak again “i said any person that could put together such poetry, compassion, and empathy for my little girl after everything that shes been through showing much restraint and devotion to her earns the title of my daughters significant other, and man. lovey if he thought he didnt deserve you.” “He didnt. Weve been trying to get those two together since second year” Apollo sighed out tackling Artemis to the ground in a hug “he’s good for her dad, you should see it he’s been loving her since he knew what love was” “i can vouch for that too sir!” Lee said smiling “please Lee its Padfoot or Sirius seeing as how you two are going to be sharing a room” Sirius said Nonchalantly blush spreading across Lee’s cheeks “hey hey hey! Break it up you two!” Sirius called out “youre going to break the basement!” Sirius chuckles out  before bed shes in her room with the door open  Fred holds on to the mirror and spoke her name “hey.. i know i just saw you a few hours ago i just wanted to talk to you before bed” he smiled when he saw her face “we still on for Sunday?” He asked “Fred if thats my second daughter tell her to bring Remus and Sirius too!” Molly called out from the kitchen

“She can hear you mum!” Fred rolled his eyes “so how are things going back home? Now that youve hired Remus are you not going to be bringing your animals to school?” He asked “i think i might bring my Kelpie and Igneous, the rest’ll stay home from now on” she smiled “Are you sure Mrs. Weasley?” She asked through the mirror Molly coming behind Fred smiling “of course. Being Remus and Sirius the Daily Prophet cleared his name in an urgent article” she smiled “thank you ma’am” she smiled “Artie. You know you call me Molly” she smiled “muummm stop hogging my girlfriend” he rolled his eyes at her “has Charlie told you?” He asked “that he’s coming? Yeah. Hes going to be staying at Grimmuald place. Wont tell me why he’s coming but i guess its important” she shrugged “well George wishes you a good night and i’ll see you on Sunday. I love you Pualena, Write me tomorrow.” he smiled “dont i write you every day?” She laughed “everydays not enough every hour seems better” he joked “i love you too Gideon” she rolled her eyes “goodnight love, call me if you need me in the middle of the night” he smiled “i will you know i will” she smiled “good night” she grabs her brush from the desk “island baby youre so beautiful… you drive me crazy” she sang softly brushing out her hair “you know youre all that i need so much more” she hummed Sirius opened the door “your strength and beauty i can see in your eyes i lose sight of my world baby love no words can hold whats truly on my mind” “just feel the beat of my heart and youll know what i need” Sirius took over taking her hands slowly dancing with her “youre my pualena… youre so beautiful, god knows i love you youre all i need” he smiled she giggled “you remind me of her” he said sitting down with her on the bed “i like what you did with the place” he commented looking around the room “much better than me and Tear shared this place” he said nervously  She smiled softly to her dad “just ask me i know you want to know dad” she smiled “are you… are you okay?” He looked up to her “as okay as i can be. Apollo’s been taking me to a healer every week talking through what happened to me. Molly and Arthur helped me a lot, Molly fought me she wanted me to live at the burrow when it first happened, but i knew that i wanted you and Apollo back. So i came here. Ive been slowly renovating and making due til i can buy my own place. Ive been doing all the renovations to eventually give this place back to you” she shrugged “its your birthright after all” she smiled “Naleo, do you need anything? Want me to do anything?” He asked softly “can you stay tonight? I have nightmares” she asked softer “usually Apollo comes and stays. But i dont want to take him away from his boyfriend.” Sirius morphs into padfoot and curls up on the edge of her bed “youll come on Sunday right Padfoot?” She yawned out he barked at her “thank you dad” she drifted to sleep

A week into summer early Sunday morning she crawled to her bathroom corner panicking “Charlie” she sobbed “Charlie please pick up” she sobbed more “Charlie i need you” she sobbed more placing the mirror up to the side of her “hey Lia bug? Honey why you calling me at three in the morning? whats the matter?” Charlies tired voice picks up the mirror “Your… youre alive? Youre okay?” Her voice hoarse like shes been screaming Suddenly wide awake he shoots out of bed “Lia” he said louder flicking on the light of his bed side table “Lucious didnt get you?” She sniffled “im sorry… it was just so… Real and i… i needed to know” she sobbed louder pulling her knees to her chest “i’ll be there in 15 minutes” “no… no im okay” she cried “it was just a nightmare i promise” he looked into the mirror seeing her visibly shaking “Fred George you gits wake up!” He threw a towel at them “youre in london?” She breathed out as he turned on their light “ugh Charlie what!” Freds voice called out “Heart” her voice cracked his eyes widened “Voice” he jumped off the bed “we gotta go. Leave a note for mom, Lia bug we’re on our way” he said into the mirror before hanging up “another nightmare?” Fred asked “yeah she was sobbing when i answered the mirror” Charlie said pulling on a shirt tossing one to Fred George tapes the note to their door grabbing on to Charlie’s shoulder heavy knocks pulls Sirius to the door wand raised “where is Voice? Wheres Lia” Fred pushes past Sirius ignoring Sirius’s wand in his face brushing it away from his eye Sirius stood in shock at what just happened “APOLLO!” He yelled “WAKE UP VOICE NEEDS US!” He yelled climbing up the stairs “hello, you must be Sirius the impatient one thats half way up the stairs is Fred, im Charlie, thats George. Artie is having a panic attack we’re here for her she mirror phoned us to see if we were alive” Charlie fills him in pushing his way into the house and following behind Fred “nice to meet you” George smiled pushing passed him they walk into Lia’s room as Freds carrying her out of the bathroom placing her in his lap on her bed “want me to sing? Or just hold you?” He whispered as George sat next to him on one side Charlie on the other pulling her feet into his lap “we’re okay Lia, he didnt get us we promise we’re here, we’re alright thanks for calling us instead of going through it alone Buggy” Charlie massaged her leg soon Lee and Apollo come crawling into her bed Lee carrying pillows and Apollo dragging their blanket into the room Apollo muttering a spell to enlarge her bed from a king to an alaskan king bed to fit all of them face-planting into the mattress “im not singing its too early for singing just comfort.” He grumbles Lee hitting him with a pillow before crawling under the blanket putting an arm around Apollo’s waist “lovey. Its not her fault” Lee coo’d before shutting his eyes “its Lucious’s” Lee yawned “i know. Im just tired. go to bed old lady we’re all safe Dads home, Lucious wont get us, Fred loves you and will never stop im not going anywhere Lee’s nit going anywhere we’re here for you” he-made himself comfortable on the foot of her bed George pulling the hair out of Artemis’s face “you getting in too?” Apollo yawned looking up at his dad “i’ll take the floor” Sirius whispered morphing into Padfoot “island baby… youre so beautiful” Charlie sung softly “you drive me crazy” Apollo’s cranky voice said louder gaining a chuckle from her “i didnt know Fred was going to yell at you to wake up! I told them not to come i was fine” She sniffled “you werent fine your eyes are swollen and red. This is our job Lia.” Lee reminded her “falls within our duties as your best friend boyfriend brothers” “i keep you human, you keep me out of trouble we keep eachother safe remember? Thats us. Thatll always be us.” Fred reminds “get some sleep Love.” He places her between Charlie and himself singing to her softly playing with her hair as she softly cries

“thank you” she says to the room “like Lee said. Its our job. Youre just as much my sister as Ginny is. Theres nothing Me Bill George or Percy wouldnt do for you. Youre one of us. Theres nothing to thank us for Lia” Charlie mumbles falling back asleep

At 9am sharp there was a knock on the door Molly popping her head in “Breakfast is ready” she smiled at the pile of kids on the bed Artemis stretched her arms over her head “im sorry Mrs. Weasley” she looked down “boys give me and my daughter a minute alone please? Help your father set the table” “can do mum” Charlie said Fred looked back at her “she’ll be fine mate.” Sirius pats Freds shoulder leading him out of the room “we have a few things to talk about” Sirius chuckled once everyone was out of the room Molly looked to her “i didnt want them to come” she looked down “Artemis, my boys. They love you. Of course they would come. Was i thrilled to wake up to my three sons missing? No. But once i read that you needed them. I rushed over with your favorites. Artemis youre family, and if you need us. We’re coming straight away” Molly smiled “want to tell me about it lovey?” She smiled she laid in Molly’s lap “it was so real mum…. I could feel the heat of the curses i heard their screams felt them go limp… it was horrid” Artemis cried softly “im sorry” she whispered “i called Charlie just to make sure… i guess he could hear it in my voice” Artemis cried “I made eggs Benedict might not be as good as yours but i tried.” She smiled “whats Charlie doing back?” Artemis cocked an eyebrow at her “something for the start of the new year. Snow’s down stairs too” she smiled as they walked down the stairs Fred had made a joke that made Sirius spit out his coffee “really?!?” Sirius said with a barking laugh “yeah. She bit my head off for removing the dillyweed infused toad stomachs that made the foam stop multiplying” Fred smiled “and then the git tried to blame it on me! the only successful prank that Fred landed on her was the one he didnt plan, but Apollo did” George added “i still have the original score paper from their first year to when i left” Charlie pulled out the paper showing Sirius “i let her win” Fred huffed out “stop lying you didnt let me win. what he doesnt realize is that he won my heart with it” Artemis walked in “morning Dad” she kissed Sirius’s head “uncle moon, hau, dad” she said to the adults sitting at the table coming back to sit down next to Fred who stood up pulled out her chair and pushed it back in “nobody’s ever tried so hard to get me back. I thought it was sweet after that detention with Severus he put that effort into knowing me. I know i didnt make it easy for him. But he smashed down walls and gave me a home to go to if i needed it a home, another set of siblings, surrogate parents. love, im still learning how to stand on my own bur he’s been there every step of the way. If that prank war didnt happen i probably wouldve been killed a long time ago” she shrugged making her plate “i love you voice” Fred kissed her cheek “eat. I made your plate” he smiled “i have an announcement to make!” Arthur smiled as they all looked at him “before school starts i am taking you kids plus Harry and Hermione to the quidditch world cup!” He beamed smiling “here you go” Sirius smiled pushing a ticket to Artemis Apollo and Lee “dad…” she started “called in a favor.” He smiled “it’ll be before the school year starts , but as long as you and Fred George Hermione and Charlie are back at the burrow for the last week of summer to go pick up Harry. The boys can stay” he smiled at Artemis her eyes widened “you knew about me writing Hermione?!” She asked shocked “you guys are going to see Romeo and Juliet tomorrow. I kind of assumed she was staying” George smiled sheepishly

“no funny business boys. Best behavior” Molly scolds “is this what you plan when im asleep padfoot?” She asked raising her eyebrows “only the best for my little girl” he smiled “oh. Lia girl” Charlie called our “Bill’s also coming back. Can he stay?” Charlie asked “if he can room with you and Hau. The last bedroom is for Harry hes coming on July first. So if Arthur just wants to pick us all up from here thats fine. Ron. You can stay in Harrys room. Ginny youre with me and Fred since we cant fit four boys in Apollo’s room with his ferret cage then when Hermione comes i’ll have Kreacher clean out the smaller master on the 3rd floor” She smiled “you called child?” Kreacher asked from behind her she kneeled “how was vacation lovey?” She asked “wonderful madame. I got to see my sister and her child.” He smiled “we must have them over for dinner if their family allows. Would you mind cleaning out the smaller master room on the top floor? I have guests coming to stay the summer.” She smiled to the Elf “as you wish madame” “you know you call me Artie Kreacher now sit. Eat. Tell us about your trip to finland! Did you bring me back a teeshirt?” she smiled as she petted his head “dont i always?” He smiled “i need to write Bill” she huffs out “hes in muggle Egypt at the moment. call him?” Charlie asked she nodded “excuse me” she smiled “we’ll floo over later this afternoon with trunks” Charlie smiled she nodded

Artemis sat on her bed that she had shrunk back down reading a smutty novel from the library when Sirius knocked on the door she looked up from her book as he sat down on her bed “i really like him, does he treat you well?” “He treats me so well that i feel like myself before mom died” she looked into her fathers eyes  “when he came here at three thirty in the morning not even phased by me holding a wand to his neck trying to get to you, Naleo youre happy arent you? With him?” He asked “im really really happy” she smiled “hes a headache dont get me wrong. But i think ive found a love thats the most like yours and mum” she smiled “ARTIE!! ARTIE!! CAN YOU AND HUBBY DO THE THING AGAIN?!?!?” Lee came running into the room with the walkman “no. Ive showed ypu once. Once is enough Lee!” She rolled her eyes “what are you talking about?” Sirius asked “when old lady and i were babies. And mum was pregnant with baby Reggie. we had a routine, and Lee makes me sing to him every time we’re together” he rolled his eyes putting his head on Artemis’s lap “routine you say?” Sirius cocked an eyebrow “i think Remus is calling me Byeeeee” she runs out of the room “ARTIEEEEE!!” Lee yelled. She retreated into her bag she huffed out in the library plugging in an amp and guitar softly playing the melody “shot through the heart and youre to blame” she sings softly “you give love a bad name” she runs her hand down the frets “an angels smile is what you sell you promise me heaven then put me through hell chains of love got a hold on me when passions a prison you cant break free” she sings louder suddenly the door opens with a second guitar playing she looks up to Sirius with a shocked expression “oh youre a loaded gun yeah oh theres no where to run no one can save me the damage is done” Sirius smiles sitting down next to her in the library she smiled at him “come on Naleo sing for dad” “Shot through the heart! And youre to blame! You give love a bad name!” “Bad name” Sirius followed “i play my part you play your game you give love a bad name” “bad name” “hey you give love a bad name” she plays the riff and stops when the door opens again “Bon Jovi? Really? You couldnt have picked a better muggle rock band like ACDC or Guns and Roses?” Apollo rolled his eyes “says the one who likes kiss” she sneered “your boyfriend and his brothers are here” he sat next to his dad “my own son. Into kiss who taught you that?!” Sirius jested “Aunty Altair” he shrugged “that evil witch” he laughed “what are you guys doing in here?” Charlie asked “came to runnaway from doing the Aerosmith thing Lee wants us to do again” she rolled her eyes at Lee “come on! You guys are amazing!” Lee asked again “if its all the same i want to see her do Pua kiele again” Fred added kissing the top of her head “mums favorite song?” Sirius asked “you and Apollo know it?” He asked again “yes. We both do” Apollo said smiling at his dad “im with Fred on that one” he said grabbing the guitar out of Artemis’s hands “maybe on our wedding day” she pats her dads face “BUT ARTEMIS!” Sirius called out after her appalled following her out of the room she grabbed Freds hand and snapped her fingers they appeared on the roof of Grimmuald place she sighs out falling back on the shutters he looks at her in the fading light “have i ever told you how beautiful you are?” He asked

“multiple times handsome” she smiled “i wrote you something” she said snapping her fingers a ukulele came to her hands and a paper in his “you said me singing made you happy so…” “youre gonna sing this to me?” He asked she nodded “i said when i saw you i knew id be speechless i dont want to loose you so i wont bear no secrets you are my weakness you tried to get to know me i said you could be there for me my one and only” she sung softer he looked at her shocked heart beating faster “said when i saw you i knew that id be speechless i dont want to loose you so i wont bear no secrets you are my weakness you tried to get to know me i said you could be there for me my one and only” hmmm im so sure your the one that i need yeah cause i can count on you to be by side yeahh i want you i need you to be by my side to hold you forever baby thats no lie baby thats no lie” she looked at him his face and ears as red as his hair “said when i saw you i knew that id be speechless i dont want to loose you so i wont bear no secrets you are my weakness you tried to get to know me i said you could be there for me my one and only said when i saw you i knew that id be speechless i dont want to loose you so i wont bear no secrets you are my weakness you tried to get to know me i said you could be there for me my one and only oooh you are my sunshine when youre looking at me just come a little closer baby next to me everytime i close my eyes i catch you in my dreams you and me together thats all i truly need cause im thinking and talking i always have you on my mind without you in my life is the ultimate crime i told you from the start its about that time said when i saw you i knew that id be speechless i dont want to loose you so i wont bear no secrets you are my weakness you tried to get to know me i said you could be there for me my one and only said when i saw you i knew that id be speechless i dont want to loose you so i wont bear no secrets you are my weakness you tried to get to know me i said you could be there for me my one and only” she stopped “its not finished and its stupid i know” she blushes turning away from him he grabbed her chin smashing his lips on hers “thank you” he said breaking away slowly eyes still closed the kissing gets heated as he pulls her into his lap “i want you” she whispered against his lips “please. When youre ready… i want to give you the parts of me other people forced away from me. I want you to take all of me i trust you.” she whimpered he squeezed her closer to him “i want you too i want you to be ready for this first thank you, for trusting me enough for this.” he mumbled a pop could be heard “prim finished dinner Artie” the house elf smiled “be right there prim” she straddled Freds hips kissing him more “i love you Kahalialaulani” he whispered she smiled down at him “i know you do” kiss “i love you too Gideon”

Artemis walks behind Charlie in the library when their alone hitting him over the head “OW! LIA BUG WHAT WAS THAT FOR!?!” He yelled at her “not inviting your mum and dad to dinner” she glared at him “SERIOUSLY?!?” He looked at her irrate “and you think you can hide dragons from me Mr. I can keep this under her nose pull the wool over her eyes and hopefully she doesnt notice hiccup an ironbelly, horntail, and opal eye in her basement!!” she crosses her arms over her chest “why are there five dragons in my basement Charles Septemus Weasley!” She whisper yelled at him “im not allowed to tell you!” He whispered back “COME ON CHARLIE ITS ME!” She whisper yelled louder “fine! Only because your technically an adult!” He rolled his eyes at her “i brought them for the tournament” he sighed out Haukea and Bill are coming at the end of summer to help me with the dragons. We’re staying the entire school year this year.” “So does this mean you can come to my graduation?” She asked “Graduation?” He cocked his eyebrow at her “i graduate lawschool in May next year like mum. Seventeen and ready to take her bar exam”She looked down “you really did it?” Charlie asked big smile on his face “i didnt tell Fred yet” he cocked his eyebrow “youre the first ive told since we’re sharing secrets. Apollo’s going to be escorting me to the stage when its time.” She smiled “why havent you told anyone you did it yet?” He asked confused look on his face “i dont want to make a big deal out of it. Its just school its not like i passed my bar exam yet” She sighs out “but dont you think Fred and George wouldve wanted to know? Hermione and Ron as well?” He asked shoving her shoulder “i mean i was just waiting for the right time to say something” she looked up to the ceiling “what do you mean?” He asked “hes focusing on Weasley Wizard Wheezes and i dont want to get in the way of that i already feel like im taking him away from it too much, he and George are making good head way with the kids at Hogwarts ive been helping them store products and testing theyre brilliant and think of things ive never thought of even with the pranks ive given them… and… im just. I dont know i feel like if i tell them now its going to fizzle out their spark slightly and bring spirits down which is a dumb thing to think cause all theyve ever done is support me. I mean. Fred forces flash cards on me and he hates studying so it’s ridiculous to think of that way but… theres just a lot thats going on and i….” “You dont want to make it all about you” he smiled she piped down nodding to him “youre right that is stupid” he shoves her “tell him. He’ll be happy for you” he pats her head “i dont think i need to tell him i can hear him and George’s disappointed stares and breathing in the corner of the room” she rolled her eyes as Charlie looked back to where Fred and George stood with tea mugs “youre graduating college?” George was the first to speak stepping forward “its not that big of a deal.” She said taking the mug from his hands

“thank you” she smiled “of course it is!” George sat down next to Charlie “i was going to tell you after the play. I mean Fred wouldve found out when we got to my bedroom for bed” she shrugged “my cap and gown is hanging from the door” she shrugged “and now that you know i have something to ask you” she smiled “what is it love?” He asked her raising his eyebrow “the other people who took the law courses are having a gala at the end of graduation, will you take me? Its fancy dresses and pretty corsages it’ll be ridiculously boring and i have to wear pinchey shoes we dont have to dance if you dont want too but i want you there with me” She asked Fred “sure love. I’ll tell mum later” he kissed her head “im proud of you you know that? Every win Voice. Big small, inbetween. i want to know about it everything you accomplish i want you to tell me right away i want to celebrate your accomplishments like you do me. Dont wait im here for you” he spoke into her ear “im sorry” she said looking up at him “dont be; i love you” “love you too” she kissed his cheek,  “hey do I not get some love as well?” Charlie asked hurt she launches herself into his arms “oh my sweet dear big brother Charlie how I love you so!!!!” She says in a drama filled voice gaining a barking laugh from the twins as she wrestled Charlies arms behind his head legs wrapping around his chest play fighting

“oh come on Lia Bug thats not fair I was caught off guard!!” “Say mercy!” She yelled back to him pulling him tighter pushing his chin to his chest “NEVER!” “You asked for it” she twisted taking them both down to the ground “should… should we help him?” George asked Fred who just shrugged at him watching Artemis hold both his wrists in her hand behind his back and one ankle in the other hand struggling on his stomach “i can go all day Charlie bear” she laughs “FINE! MERCY!” She lets go of his leg and arms laying on him her head on his “was that so hard?” She asked as he huffed rolling her off of him “i gave you chance” he argued “wanna actually go?” She asked getting ready again “i wouldnt if i were you” Apollo chuckled He accio’ed a picture “shes in Jiujitsu.” He held out the picture for him to see of her on the second place block from last summer “she was bored last summer while you guys were away. This year shes taking home the gold!” He ruffled her hair “Jiujitsu?” Sirius asked walking into the library “it was aunty’s idea. She said her and uncle had a lot of experience with Nomaj’s in New York with Newt and Tina when they spent the summer with Rolf. said itd be a good way to channel her anger” Apollo shrugged “fuck it. Lets go im defending my honor as a man” Charlie said getting ready she smirks “dont cry when you lose Charlie-bear” “im not losing!” “Five sickles” George whispers to Fred “two galleons. Artemis gets him in the first two minutes” Apollo whispers back “three say’s Charlie takes her” Sirius barters “four galleons and a glass of your finest whiskey that Voice makes him say uncle” Fred looks to Sirius “i’ll sweeten the pot. If artie tartie gets him to say uncle i’ll put down half the deposit for your shop. But you and George have to sit your NEWTS and get 5 each your seventh year, and i’ll buy one of every product you sell opening day.” Sirius calls “if she loses i’ll still put a quarter. If you get your NEWTs. And half of your inventory. The NEWTS on either is non negotiable. No NEWTS no money.” He shrug watching Artemis put Charlie in a chokehold Fred and George debate it “deal” they say with a smile Charlie broke out of and to his feet she leg swept him and hopped on his back pulling one wrist behind his back with the opposite leg in the other “say mercy!” She yelled stretching him further into a pretzel “never!” He groaned out struggling against her grip she moves her body up pulling his arm and leg into an armlock stretching him “FUCK MERCY! MERCY!” He yelled she let go immediately dusting herself off they looked up and saw Sirius and Apollo angrily handing over Four galleons each “Kreacher pour the twins a glass of the 1889 fire whisky please” he scoffed she cocked an eyebrow at him “and remind me to write gringots in the morning!” The twins excitedly high fiving themselves “we’re taking you out to dinner tonight!” George said “ON US!” Fred kissed her excitedly “go get ready. We’re going to your favorite restaurant” George shoved her up the stairs “wait!! What just happened?!?” She and Charlie asked  “Sirius and Apollo just lost a bet” George smiled walking up the stairs “i bet four galleons and a glass of his finest fire whiskey that Artie would make you say uncle” Fred followed up the stairs “and like an idiot, Dad sweetened the pot by saying ‘i’ll put half the deposit down on your shop’ and she went ahead and made you scream mercy” Apollo rolled his eyes “now theyre gloating!” Apollo yelled up to them “YOURE INVITED TO COME POLLO!” George yelled down from their room “i did make the stipulation of them getting five NEWTs each their last year of Hogwarts. So its not like im freely giving them doe.” Sirius shrugged “mums going to kill you. You know that right?” Charlie asked as they laughed

PETER LIKED TO THINK HE WAS SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW WHEN TO GIVE UP. He was an Avenger, for gods sake; if he could fight someone like Thanos, then he could accurately gage when it was time to take a step back and admit that not all battles could be won. Even if he was willing to fight until his last breath.

He had liked Y/N for a while. Longer than he’d ever admit to anyone else, even Aunt May or Ned. Since before he became Spider-Man, she had caught his eye, but Peter had always been a bit too nervous to approach her. He had gotten lucky when his schedule lined up with hers for his Junior year, having five out of his seven classes with her. The only issue, however, was her boyfriend.

Her boyfriend was no match for Peter. Peter might be Spider-Man undercover, but in the daylight of his high school career, he was... kind of a loser. Y/N’s boyfriend, James, was six-foot-three and Captain of the wrestling team, with broad shoulders and a strong jaw. Peter, on the other hand, was a measly five-foot-nine and often compared himself to looking like a toddler. Aunt May said otherwise, but that didn’t change anything.

“Hey, Pete,” she smiled at him, the apples of her cheeks round as she slid into the seat in front of him. She was the only one who called her ‘Pete,’ with the exception of Aunt May. Having so many shared classes had brought forth the closest thing he could get to being hers: an in-school friendship.

“Hi,” he pursed his lips into a smile, lifting a hand up in a meek wave. Fiddling with his pencil where it hovered above his graph paper, he eyed her and said, “I, uh— I like your shoes.”

“Oh, really?” she glanced down at the black-and-white skate shoes. “I was iffy about wearing them, ‘cause they kind of make me feet look like squares, don’tcha think?”

Peter peered back down at the shoes and cracked a small grin. “Maybe a little bit. But it’s not bad, I think they’re cool.”

“Thanks!” Y/N leaned down to unzip her backpack, taking out the notebook of graph paper with a series of messy scribbles along the margins. She flipped it open, turned in her chair to face him. “Okay, so I’m assuming you did the homework? I seriously have no idea how to do this, and I figured you did.”

“Oh, yeah — yeah, I — I did the homework,” Peter nodded fervently, leaning forward over his desk so he could see her notebook. She placed it on the top of his desk, fully facing him, and pointed to the second problem on the sheet.

“So I used SOH-CAH-TOA to find this angle, but then I guess I messed it up somewhere along here....” she continued talking, explaining the process of her attempt at solving the calculus problem. Peter listened intently to her words, all while staring at the different flecks of color in her e/c eyes and losing himself the way she bit the inside of her cheek in between sentences. “Peter?”

“Yeah?” he snapped out of it. She was smiling at him and oh, shit, he hadn’t heard the second half of what she was saying.

“So do you think you could help?” she asked. Her eyes shifted over towards the clock on the front wall. “‘Cause we got like three minutes until the period officially starts and I seriously need a good grade.”

“Yeah, of course,” Peter gulped and grabbed his calculator, focusing his eyes on the graph paper and began copying down the equation from his own notebook. It was dreadfully difficult to keep his focus with her leaning so close to him, her perfume flooding into his brain and fogging up his mind. He scribbled down the solution as fast as you can.

“Oh, duh!” she slumped her shoulders. “I guess I multiplied wrong. I always screw up simple math.”

“No, you did it right the first time,” Peter gently smiled at her, careful not to keep eye contact for too long. “Just a little mess up in the middle. But all the other math was, uhm... spot on.”

“Thanks, Pete,” she nodded, tapping her fingers on the spiral spine of her notebook. “I’m really glad that — oh shit!”

She jolted in her spot, a pair of hands coming down to squeeze her shoulders. She turned around and sighed; Peter followed the hands and was disappointed to see James, her boyfriend, standing beside her desk.

“You scared the shit out of me!” she said breathily, one hand flying to rest over her heart. “Jesus!”

“Sorry, babe,” James chuckled, slipping into his spot— which just so happened to be right beside her, diagonal from Peter. “What’s good, Penis Parker?”

Peter felt his ears turn red, and he clenched his jaw, avoiding the other boys eyes and shifting awkwardly in his seat. Y/N abruptly whacked her boyfriend on the arm, suddenly frowning.

“Don’t be a dick,” she said pointedly. James laughed.

“It’s just a joke,” he lifted his hands in defense. “Parker doesn’t care, does he? Do you?”

Peter glanced up, eyes darting between James and Y/N. He only shrugged.

“It doesn’t matter,” Y/N said, scooting her chair under her desk as soon as she saw the teacher enter the classroom. “It’s still rude and immature and his name is Peter.”

“Okay, chill out,” James muttered. “Hey, you did the homework, right?”

Peter watched Y/N send her boyfriend a very tired expression, her shoulders slouching. “Seriously?"

“What? C’mon, I had practice ‘till late last night,” James frowned. “And you know how much I struggle with Calc.”

Y/N gave another sigh before reluctantly handing him her notebook. Peter watched the exchange with a slight frown, biting his tongue to refrain from saying something about cheating and morality or something equally as stupid. He wasn’t going to tattle. He didn’t want to do that to her, not that he gave a flying fuck about what happened to James.

James wordlessly threw the notebook back to her after a few minutes; she caught it swiftly and spared him another longing sort of glance before bowing her head and facing the front of the room. Peter clenched his jaw and sent a glare towards the back of James’ head; he knew he was a dick, and she knew he was a dick. So why the hell was she dating him?

There was no way in hell that James had some kind of brilliant quality about him that made this kind of treatment worth it. It’s not like he was remarkably thoughtful, or funny, or attractive. He was pleasant looking, sure, but Peter was sure there wasn’t a single redeeming quality about him.

As though he had heard his thoughts, James suddenly turned his head around and was met with Peter’s lingering glare. He narrowed his eyes at him, glanced at Y/N, and then looked back at Peter. Peter fought the urge to bow his head and shy away; he was Spider-Man for fuck’s sake! He could handle some stupid high school asshole, couldn’t he?

Peter frowned the entire walk from class to his locker, where he tiredly turned his lock and swung open the metal door as though the interaction in Calculus had taken a serious toll on him.

“Peter!” came a cheery voice from his right. Leaning back to look over his locker, he saw Ned, grinning. “You look so unhappy to see me. Is there a reason for this, or are you just, like, being moody today?”

“Being moody today,” Peter mumbled. “’Cause of stupid James Lewis.”

“Ah,” Ned said wisely, leaning against the other lockers as Peter slipped out his textbook and closed the metal door. “Yeah, that can really wreck a guys mood.”

“Yeah,” Peter breathed, watching as Y/N approached her locker on the other end of the hall. James followed at her heels, laughing obnoxiously with another boy on the wrestling team and ignoring his girlfriend entirely. Y/N took out her books, clutching them to her chest, and turned to speak to James; Peter watched as she fiddled nervously with her necklace as she waited for her boyfriend to look at her. “Why’s she dating him, man? He’s so awful.”

“I dunno, dude,” Ned shrugged. “Women are the world’s greatest mystery.”

“So are men,” Peter muttered, sending James a final glare before he and Ned turned the other way.

---

EARLY THAT EVENING, just before he left for patrol, Peter’s phone rang. Which was fairly normal, considering Ned called him a million times a day and Aunt May often send him the occasional call on her way home from work. This time, however, startled him, because the name on the call was not Ned, nor was is May. It said Y/N.

“H-Hey, Y/N, hi!” Peter stammered out after pressing the green answer button, steadying his grip on his phone after it had almost slipped from his grasp. “Hello!”

“Hi, Pete,” her voice said, sounding sweet. “Sorry to call you at such a weird time. I—er— had a question about the homework?”

“Oh, yeah!” Peter held the phone to his ear with his shoulder and shot his hand out across his room; a web flung from his wrist and stuck itself onto his Calculus notebook. It soared towards him, and he frantically flipped to the most recent page. “Which one?”

“Uhm, number three.”

Peter scanned the page through the latex of his mask.

“I don’t think we had to do number three tonight,” he answered with an awkwardly laugh. Through the phone, she gave a noise of disapproval.

“Ugh, of course!” she said exasperatedly. “I always copy down the wrong numbers from the board. Thanks for telling me. Sorry to bother you!”

“No, no, you’re not — you’re not a bother!” Peter insisted in a shrill voice, grabbing his mask from the top of his head and tugging it off of his face. “Never a bother!”

With a laugh, she said, “I totally procrastinated my homework... I was totally binge watching all the Spider-Man videos on YouTube. Have you see them?”

Peter coughed rather loudly. “Erm, yeah, a few. Don’t really pay attention to, uh... to Spider-Man...”

“They’re totally awesome,” she gushed, and Peter felt heat flood up into his cheeks. “How do you not pay attention to Spider-Man? I feel like that’s right up your alley.”

“I dunno,” Peter shrugged absentmindedly. “We’ve got tons of Avengers, y’know? Guess I’m just... erm... kinda desensitized to it.”

"I’m kind of a dork about the Avengers, actually,” she said timidly. “I don’t care how many times I see Captain America on the news— I am totally mesmerized each and every time. Same with Spider-Man. I think they’re so cool.”

“...mesmerized?” Peter perked his head up. “Uhm... how so?”

“Thought you didn’t care about Spider-Man?”

Peter pressed his lips together. “I don’t.”

You dismissively waved your hand and said, “Then, I’ll stop. I don’t mean to be geeking out.”

“No, it’s okay!” Peter said hastily. “Really, I don’t mind. I think it’s cool that you think the Avengers are cool. They are cool.”

“But not Spider-Man?”

“I — well — no, Spider-Man is cool, I never said he wasn’t cool,” Peter went on. “But, I’m just saying, like... I dunno. The other Avengers are better. Like... like Iron Man, he’s awesome. Black Widow, she’s... the best.”

“Hm,” she paused. “I think I’ll be her for Halloween. You totally just sparked my imagination, thanks!”

“No problem,” he replied, willing himself not to think about what she might look like in the tight, leather suit that Black Widow wore. There was a beat of silence, and Peter was sure he had started sweating.

“Okay, well... I ought to finish the homework that we actually have to do,” she joked, a smile heard within her words. Peter felt himself grin. “I’ll see you tomorrow in class, okay?”

“Yeah, yeah— see you!” he said, and with a Click! she was gone. Turning off his phone, he tossed it onto his bed and groaned, putting his head in his hands and frowning. He was way too enthusiastic to say See you!. Taking a deep breath, he grabbed his phone again and slipped it into his pocket before grabbing his mask and slipping it over his face; it was time to patrol, not to daydream. Cracking open his window, he was gone.

---

SOMETHING WAS WRONG. Peter felt it as soon as he went on patrol for the night. The streets of the city were empty, the night breeze whisking up the dust of the pavement and paving a path for no one. It was unlike Queens to be so quiet at this time of night; even at a quarter past midnight, the city was usually lively, however this night was different.

Mindlessly winging along the sides of the cities skyscrapers, Peter wondered what could be the cause of this weird occurrence. It wasn’t like someone kidnapped and hid away the entire population of Queens... nor was their some kind of alien abduction (he would’ve seen it). Maybe it was a holiday he wasn’t aware of and every happened to go on vacation at the same time. Or maybe—

“Woah!” said a voice, and before his eyes focused back into the world around him, he slammed face first into another figure. He shot a hand up as he flipped upside down, a web sticking onto one of the nearby billboards above, and watched as the mysterious figure slid down the wall before coming to a pause. He blinked. How were they sticking to the wall?

Lowering himself down, he stared at the figure. He might have been watching them from an upside-down point of view, but he could see clearly the web design on their suit. 

“Hi,” he said, tilting his head to the side as though to watch them more clearly. They lifted their head, pushing h/c out of their eyes; they had a red mask over their nose and mouth, e/c eyes blinking up at him. 

The torso of their suit was silver, with a red-and-black web pattern across their chest, however the arms and legs were black with the exception of her fingers, which were painted a bright red. Woah.

“Uhm,” Peter said again. “How’s it hangin’?”

“It’s all right,” the figure said; the voice was feminine, familiar. He felt his stomach jump for a second, as though he knew who it was, but it went away after a moment. “With the exception of you slamming into me.”

“Sorry about that,” Peter lowered himself more and crawled up the single web so he could be right-side up, at her eye-level. “Wasn’t paying attention. Hey, who are you?”

“None of your bees-wax,” she sassed, lifting a hand up. “I gotta go.”

“Woah, woah!” Peter shot out a web to intercept hers, swinging up to follow her. “Hey, c’mon! You know who I am, right?”

“Obviously,” she said, her back to him as she swung away. “Doesn’t mean I owe you anything.”

Peter frowned under his mask. “Well, how’re you also SpiderMan? Or... Spider-Woman? Sorry.”

“It’s Silk, actually,” she said exasperatedly. “And I’m what you call also SpiderMan because some nasty insect decided to bite me two days ago.”

“Yesterday?” Peter mused, still following her. “How’re you swinging so well, then?”

“Practice,” she shrugged and came to a stop on a nearby rooftop. “Are you gonna follow me all the way home, or what?”

“Oh, sorry,” Peter launched himself towards her, landing on the same roof. “I’m just... curious. Hey, were you the reason why everyone was gone?”

“Yup. Huge robbery at the edge of the city. Everyone sort of flocked outside when I got ‘em out of the place,” she said, crossing her arms over his chest. Peter stared, eyes trailing over the fine details of her suit. She furrowed her brows. “Hey! Look me in the eyes when I’m talking to you, you creep!”

“Sorry! Sorry!” Peter flinched. “I wasn’t— I wasn’t staring at your— I was looking at your suit! It’s really cool.”

“Thanks,” she avoided his eyes and rubbed the side of her head. Peter then noticed she had a bruise forming on her upper cheekbone. “I need to go home, okay?”

“Okay, yeah,” Peter nodded feverishly. “Didn’t mean to keep you.”

“All good, SpiderMan,” she gave him a salute and said, “See you ‘round.”

---

WORD OF SILK had spread faster than Peter anticipated. The next day at school, her name permeated about the hallways, whispers of her trickling around Peter wherever he went. She was the first thing Ned spoke of when Peter saw him that morning, and he was floored to find out Peter had actually met her.

Y/N was not in the calculus classroom when Peter walked in. She usually was there before him, however the seat in front of him remained empty. James, her boyfriend, came in earlier than usual, looking especially cranky. Peter gave him his own glare (which wasn’t very menacing, but he liked to pretend it was) before averting his eyes to his graph paper. 

“The hell are you looking at, Parker?” James barked. Peter shifted his eyes up.

“Nothing,” Peter said.

James scoffed and slumped into his seat, running a hand through his hair before sending a nod of a greeting to the girl who sat on the other side of him. Peter frowned at this, watching as the random girl blushed and sent a wave back. 

Right before the bell rang, as the last kids settled into their seats, Y/N speed-walked in, frantically apologizing to the teacher as she hustled into her seat. Peter sat up straighter, staring to try and meet her eyes, but she slid into her seat without looking up at anyone. 

The teacher, Mr. Bruno, began to teach, and Peter watched as James leaned over to nudge Y/N with the eraser of his pencil. She snapped her head over; her eyes were bloodshot, her cheeks flushed red, and her fist was clenched around her pencil.

“Woah,” James whispered. “What happened to you?”

She deeply inhaled through her nose, closing her eyes for a moment. “What do you want?”

“Don’t take that tone with me,” James furrowed his brow. “You did the homework, right?”

“Yes, but I can’t give it to you now,” she whispered. “Mr. Bruno’s teaching, and I’d get in trouble—”

“Oh, come on, Y/N, just slide it over,” James said dismissively. “Won’t hurt you. It’s really not that big of a deal—”

“She said no,” Peter blurted. James whipped his head around, as did Y/N. She blinked at him, e/c eyes shining, and she gave him a pursed-lip smile that said thanks, but you shouldn’t have done that.

“The hell did you just say?” James hissed. “Huh, Penis Parker? You got somethin’ to say?”

“Yeah,” Peter gulped. “She said no. Leave her alone.”

“She’s my girlfriend,” James barked. “This is our business, all right?”

Y/N said nothing, avoiding both of their eyes; she tucked a piece of hair behind her ear, and Peter saw her chest begin to ride and fall rather quickly. It was then he noticed, as he stared at her, that there was a large bruise on the side of her cheek. Oh god, Peter thought. He’s hitting her.

“You shouldn’t speak to your girlfriend that way,” Peter muttered, turning back to face the whiteboard, copying down the notes that Mr. Bruno had written. “It’s disrespectful.”

“Yeah, ‘cause I’m going to take your relationship advice, Parker,” James scoffed, shaking his head. “No girl could ever date you, man.”

“Quit being a dick, James!” Y/N said rather loudly, to which Mr. Bruno finally turned around and set his eyes on her. The classroom fell silent.

“Ms. L/N, please don’t use that kind of language in my classroom,” he said gently, to which Y/N melted into her chair and nodded her head.

“Sorry,” she mumbled, casting her eyes down. She didn’t speak for the rest of the class, ignoring glares she received from James. She didn’t even turn around when they were told to work independently. Peter prayed she wouldn’t pay for his actions.

“Hey,” he said to her as soon as the bell rang, reaching over to touch her shoulder. She jumped back, eyes wide, before her shoulders deflating at the sight of him.

“Oh, sorry, Pete,” she said, her voice tired. Her eyes were still bloodshot and glistening, and he stared at her gently with concern. “Scared me.”

“Wait here for a sec,” he told her, watching as James threw his bag over his shoulder. She gave him a look. “Please?”

“Y/N, c’mon,” James beckoned her. Y/N spared Peter a look before she turned and said.

“I’ll catch up,” she said carefully. “I gotta talk to Pete.”

James glanced in between them cynically, before his malicious glare settled on Peter. He clenched his jaw and said, “Fine,” before stomping out of the classroom.

“Are you okay?” Peter asked Y/N once James was out of earshot.

“I’m just tired, I promise,” she assured him. “I didn’t sleep well.”

“You’re all flushed. And your face is bruised...” Peter lifted a hand up absentmindedly as though to graze the bruise with his knuckle, but he snapped his hand back down to his side when he realized what he was doing. Glancing back at the door, where James had disappeared, Peter said, “Look, if somethings wrong... if you’re not safe...”

Y/N furrowed her brows. “Safe? I’m plenty safe, I promise. What is this about?”

“James,” Peter said. “I’m sorry for jumping to conclusions, but... he kind of treats you like shit, Y/N.”

“I — he’s just...” she gulped. “He gets angry. I know it’s not good, but...”

She clenched her jaw and glanced feverishly behind Peter. 

“It’s not like I can just dump him and have everything be all rainbows and sunshine, okay?” her shoulders tensed. “He’s my first boyfriend, I... I can’t just dump him.”

Peter frowned and glanced down at her bruised cheek. “But he’s...”

Y/N lifted a hand to touch her bruise, and with a faint smile she said, “I know what you’re thinking. He didn’t hit me, Pete.”

“You don’t have to lie,” Peter pressed further. Y/N furrowed her brows. “You can tell me. I can help you—”

“It’s not from him, Peter!” she insisted and threw her backpack over her shoulder, however it accidentally whacked her water bottle than had been sitting on the corner of the desk. 

Peter, the hairs on his arms raising, lunged forward to grab it, however his fingers bumped right into hers. Lifting his eyes up, he saw that she had caught the bottle before he had. How...? he couldn’t finish the thought. She pursed her lips and turned to tuck the water bottle into the side pocket of her bag. 

“Don’t worry about me, Peter,” she said hastily without looking at him, her hand not leaving the water bottle on the side of her backpack. 

She shook her wrist around as though to try and take her fingers off the bottle, however her hand stayed put. Peter watched intently. Y/N finally settled on taking the bottle out and holding it in front of her. 

“I’m fine,” she told him firmly. “Erm — see you.”

And she circling around him without another word, starting towards the door. Peter hastily turned to grab his own bag in an attempt to rush after her.

“Wait, you left your—!” Peter picked up her pencil and turned around, but she was already gone. Sighing, he moved to put the pencil down, but something caught him off guard; a strand of a spider web wrapped around the eraser like a cocoon. His head snapped up.

No fucking way. 

---

DESPITE HAVING A good amount of classes with her, Y/N seemed to keep slipping out of his grasp again and again throughout the day. She ignored the notes he kept asking Ned to give her in History, pretending like she didn’t see him staring at her in English, speed-walking away from him in the cafeteria. Peter was sure he’d have to web her to keep her in one place just so he could talk to her.

By the sound of the final bell, Peter raced out of his last class (Physics) and practically sprinted to his locker before pushing his way down the stairwell in an attempt to reach the main entrance to the school to find Y/N. She parked her car on the side of the building, and although Peter walked the other way to catch his bus home, he decided to walk to her car. But when he reached her car, and she wasn’t there, he realized how creepy he probably seemed.

“Pete?” he heard his name, and he grimaced before turning around. Y/N was standing on the sidewalk, books hugged to her chest.

“Hey,” he dragged out, tensing his shoulders. “Uhm. Sorry.”

“It’s okay,” she sighed, walking around the other side of the car to drop her backpack and books onto the passenger seat. “What... erm... what’re you doing at my car?”

“Well, that’s... it’s...” Peter pursed his lips. Digging into his pocket, he took out her web-wrapped pencil. Her brows twitched. “I found this.”

“Thanks,” she reached out and grabbed it from him. “I was looking for it.”

“No, that’s... look at the end of it,” Peter said. At this, she furrowed her brows in confusion and glanced down at the eraser, covered in silk. She clenched her jaw and said nothing. “I... you can tell me, y’know.”

“Tell you what?” she said, putting her pencil back in her pocket. Peter opened his mouth wordlessly. “What’s up with you and your accusations today?”

“Okay, in my defense, it’s kind of hard to not thing you’ve got an abusive boyfriend when he treats you — and everyone else, might I add! — like shit all the time, every day.”

“I — he doesn’t —”

“So when you come into class looking like you’re about to cry, and with a bad bruise on the side of your cheek, excuse me for being just a little bit concerned!” Peter blurted. Y/N stared at him wordlessly. “And now there’s spider-web wrapped around your pencil. And the whole school is talking about this mysterious spider-woman—”

“She’s not a Spider-Woman,” Y/N muttered, brushing past Peter and opening the door to the driver’s seat. “Her names’ Silk.”

“Proving my point!” Peter threw his arms up. “I know it’s you! Silk said the same thing!”

At this, Y/N squinted and peered at him oddly. “What do you mean Silk said the same thing? Have you met her?”

Peter opened and closed his mouth like a fish for a moment. “I — that’s — no! Of course I haven’t! When — when would I have —?”

“Ah, okay,” Y/N suddenly smirked. “Why don’t you tell me what your deal is, then? I know it’s you!”

Peter clenched his jaw. “What... don’t turn this on me! This is about you!”

“You just made it about you,” Y/N stepped forward to him, and lowering her voice to a whisper, she said, “Spider-Man.”

Peter flushed and jumped back. “No! No, that’s — I don’t know where you’re getting that from! Look at me, I can’t be — I could never be — look at me! I don’t even—”

Y/N suddenly threw her phone out towards the ground at Peter’s feet. Cutting off his ramble, he struck his hand out nonchalantly and catch the phone. Handing it back to her, he continued, “Careful with that. But, anyways, it’s not me!”

“You just caught that in less than a second,” Y/N deadpanned. “If you’re honest with me, I’ll be honest with you.”

Peter stared at her for a moment, unsure. Rocking back and forth on his feet, he squinted and said, “You first.”

Sighing, she rolled her eyes and said, “Okay. You’re right.”

“Ha!” Peter pumped a fist in the air. “Knew it!”

“Now you.”

He frowned and took a deep breath. “You... I... you can’t tell anyone.”

She suddenly beamed. “Y’know, I thought there was something suspiciously charming about Spider-Man.”

Red-faced, Peter said, “Charming?”

“Yeah,” Y/N shrugged sheepishly, her face tinged pink. “Look, I... James is...” she sighed. “I broke up with him. Right after last period.”

Peter’s face lit up.

“But... it’s not all sunshine and roses now,” she muttered. “He made a big stink about it and now he won’t stop calling me, and... he just... he scares me a bit.”

He frowned and took a step closer to her, leaning against the side of the car to face her. “I won’t let him hurt you.”

“Thanks," she said half-heartedly.

“I’m serious,” Peter said, bowing his head slightly and staring down at her. “He might be a wrestler or whatever he is, but I’m literally a superhero.”

She snickered.

“What?”

“Nothing, it just sounds funny,” she giggled and glanced away, her cheeks still pink. “I appreciate it, Pete. Really.”

She was closer to him than he had anticipated, her sweet-smelling perfume flooding his sensing and ensnaring him in his place. He swallowed, his hands twitching at his sides as he felt an invisible force push him closer, faces leaning in.  

“Hey!” came a voice from their side. An old woman, standing by the door of her house nearby Y/N’s car was parked. “You can’t stay parked there all afternoon, y’hear!”

“Sorry, ma’am!” Y/N called back, giggling. Peter laughed as well, ducking his head and running a hand through his hair bashfully. “Looks like we should move.”

“Yeah,” was all Peter could find it in him to say. She grinned and glanced to her side again. Peter followed her eyes, noticing that she was watching the old woman walk back into her house. “What should —!”

Y/N had shot her hand out, a web flying from her wrist and sticking to his side to pull him in and press her lips to his. It was hasty, the kiss, and just as she pulled away, she beamed and slid into the driver’s seat.

“You want a ride, or what?”

Masterlist // Rules for Requesting

───── ⋆✩⋆ ─────

Dream

this man will make you wake up super early just to open up presents

he'll act like a little boy when he tries to shake you awake

"Y/N WAKE UP!! IT'S CHRISTMAS!!"

once you do wake up, he'll drag you downstairs with a huge smile on his face

the Christmas tree would be so decorated cause your boyfriend wanted to be in the holiday spirit

he'll so many photos of the presents you two got for each other and for patches and he'll post the ones you got him on his social media

"from my love <3"

yes it is 5 am but he doesn't care at all cause- well cause its christmas of course

George

will literally sleep in till the afternoon

honestly he'll probably forget that its even Christmas and will act like its a normal day till he sees something that reminds him of it

"wait... y/n?"

"Yeah, babe?"

"Is it Christmas?"

"YOU FORGOT IT WAS CHRISTMAS?!?"

"IT NEVER CROSSED MY MIND ALRIGHT... and wait it is?"

honestly the two of you will open presents and he'll want to go straight to bed to cuddle, drink hot chocolate, and just watch movies together

Sapnap

like dream, sapnap would be super excited for christmas

he'll make you wear matching pajamas with him and he'll suggest making a gingerbread house on stream

lets just say it didn't go so well

"Y/N WHERE'S THE FROSTING??" "UH I DONT KNOW"

"SAPNAP THE WALL'S FUCKING FALLING DOWN"

"Chat donate 100 subs and I'll knock my boyfriend's gingerbread house down." "Y/N WHAT THE FUCK" "IM JOKING.... kinda"

unfortunately sapnap was too clumsy and knocked over the house himself

it all ended with you on the ground laughing hard while sapnap is crying over his ruined gingerbread house that was now broken

Wilbur Soot

will take you outside to look at the decorations

"I want that tree in my office."

"Wilbur that tree is at least 50 feet there's no way that's possible."

"watch me try"

takes you out to ice skate and although he'll try to act like he knows how to skate, you'll be proven otherwise from how many times he slips and falls

after all that, he'll buy hot chocolate for you two and the both of you will cuddle and watch Christmas movies

Tommy

literally calls you at 12:01am

"Y/N ITS FUCKING CHRISTMAS"

"YES I KNOW AND ITS ALSO FUCKING 12 AM IN THE MORNING, TOMMY"

forces asks you to build snowmen with him and he'll make some... interesting builds

you two would even have a snowball right with wilbur, tubbo, and others as well

at the end everyone would be out of breath, covered in snow (mostly wilbur cause tommy used him as a shield), and freezing to death

but hey, at least they had fun

Tubbo

has you join him for a gingerbread cookie-making stream!

the whole stream would be so chaotic with tubbo almost adding salt instead of sugar and setting the oven temperature too high

even though the cookies almost ended up in a disaster, they didn't taste half bad

you and tubbo decorated them and he told chat that they get to decide who has better decorating skills

lets just say that his viewers picked you and tubbo pretended to be mad

"hey! that's unfair, mine totally looks better."

"Tubbo a bunch of yours are missing body parts and you have less than me cause you keep on eating them!"

"Its not my fault I'm such a great baker and that they tasted so good."

[imagineslashers]

HELLO HELLO

i love you?? and your writing???? so much??? youre so talented 💞

but uhhh i was just wondering if i could have platonic headcanons for Michael Myers, Chucky + Tiffany, and Beetlejuice?? like uh,,, maybe they just claim this frickinnn KID NSNSJ, or reluctantly becoming a parental/maternal figure towards a teenager (like 14-16 years old)

why they dont kill them or kick them to the curb is beyond me

sorry if this is a weird request??NSNS everything has gone to shit and it happened right when i got back into slashers so my emotional attachment issues made me latch onto the man, the myth, michael myers GABDNAJA its cringe, i know BUT UHHH YEAH THANK YOU FEEL FREE TO IGNORW THIS MWAH

HI HI

thank you, that makes me so happy as an anxious, self-critical writer; you’re so sweet and it made my day to read that!!!

haha i love your request, i adore cool platonic ideas! i hope you’re doing okay, i absolutely feel the same at times, but know you’ve got me as your friend if you need anything! judgement free zone! anyhow, onto the fic below!

Platonic Slashers Begrudgingly (or not) Take in a Teen

(warnings for mentions of violence, blood, abuse, swearing, etc.!)

Michael Myers

He’s not very happy.

You’re an anomaly, a stranger, a potential victim.

But then why do you make his cold heart clench when you cry?

He is literally straddling a victim in a dark alleyway with his knife in hand and suddenly he sees you in the corner of his eye, frozen to the spot, rocking on the heels of your feet.

Michael whips his head around now that his victim is long-dead and turns his attention to you, the witness. You don’t run, staring at him with narrowed eyes.

“That guy was an asshole.” The words stun him, and that’s not easy to do. Your calm, disinterested demeanour causes him to hesitate, gripping the handle of his knife. Blood drips from his mask where the victim clawed at his face, smearing the white with bright crimson.

Michael starts towards you again, assessing you, head tilted. You’re young, but not a child. Somewhere in between, and you still aren’t running. It almost irritates him.

“I’m not endorsing killing or anything, and maybe you’re going to do me in next, but that guy had it coming.” You continue quietly. Michael keeps approaching, his movements barely making noise despite his huge frame towering over yours. “Foster dad. Drank a lot.”

Michael curses under his breath because you make him hesitate again, as he feels a pang of - what? Curiosity? Sympathy? Nonsense.

A siren wails nearby and Michael stops, inches from you, close enough that you can feel the heat of his sigh as he turns away and heads off.

- from then on, you have several more encounters and ask many annoying questions, but Michael treats you more like a street cat than anything else, ignoring you other than the occasional grunt or nod

- he finds he actually might kinda like having someone want to spend time with him, even if he’s literally crushing someone in his hands, you’re hanging out at a respectable distance waiting for him

- Michael does some healthy stalking and learns that you’re now living from house to house with friends or on the street, unwilling to return to the foster system, and he doesn’t like that

- eventually, he softens just enough that when you’re going to head off one night, he grabs your wrist and all but drags you to his home

- from then on, you’re his

- he teaches you everything he knows, you’re like his little apprentice, or his shadow

- Michael is super protective, he won’t show how much he has begun to care about you but the second you’re upset by someone, they disappear mysteriously

- matching costumes for Halloween??? i stan

- he sometimes treats you a bit more like a puppy, other times he is eager to show you the tricks of the trade to using a knife and being stealthy, or he will want to be left alone, it depends on his mood

- either way, you’re his kid now, and everyone knows not to mess with you

Chucky & Tiffany (pre-doll & post)

Chucky and Tiffany are in completely different mindsets when they find you.

You’re sat hunched in a booth alone in a diner they’re both eating at, Tiffany continually glancing your way. Chucky doesn’t notice until she kicks him under the table.

He curses and hits his hand on the table, shaking the glasses. Before he can lose his temper even further, Tiffany is jerking her head not-so-subtly to one side to tell him to turn around.

He does, and he sees you in a hoodie nursing a glass of flat soda. Chucky scoffs, resuming his meal by shovelling fries into his mouth. “And?” He drawls around the mouthful, making Tiffany scowl.

“They’re all alone! No food, poor babe, they’ve been sat there since we arrived! Lost little lamb.” She croons, her elbows on the table and head rested in her hands as she watches you over her lover’s shoulder. Chucky sours, jealous at the loss of attention.

A scuffle distracts them both and they shift their attention to the masked man who just walked in. He’s brandishing a knife in one shaky hand, jerking, whipping his knife around and demanding money.

Chucky rolls his eyes, unflinching. “Amateur.” He laughs. Tiffany shoots him a look, reaching for the cutlery knife on the table, just in case.

When the stranger, however, confronts you, it’s a different matter. Tiffany goes rigid when the man grabs your collar, shaking you and demanding cash. She stands up at once, heels squeaking on the linoleum floor.

Chucky, for all his bravado and pretending to ignore you, can’t help the sudden spike in protectiveness. Tiffany’s influence, no doubt.

Just as Tiffany has crossed half the distance to you, you surprise her. Your knee shoots out between the man’s legs and hits him square in the groin, followed by a right hook that sends him collapsing to the floor in a wheezing pile.

Nobody moves, except you. You pick up your bag and sigh, stepping over the man. Before you can leave, Tiffany places a gentle hand on your shoulder. “Hey kiddo, wait a minute okay? You ain’t got no place to stay, huh?” Her voice is honeyed and like that of a mother hen soothing her young.

You nod in agreement, head low. Tiffany makes a noise of distress, pulling this sweet, spunky, surprising teen to her chest and holds you there.

Chucky appears and kicks the man in the chest for good measure, then looks at the two of you together. After a moment of Tiffany’s puppy eyes and your steely gaze, he cracks. “Fine! Get in the truck.”

- you’re their absolute prize

- after a few shorts weeks and demonstrating how much you know about life on the street, you impress Chucky enough that he allows you to stay

- Tiffany was won over from the beginning but she’s thrilled that he allows it

- you’re not going anywhere without one of them, they are so protective it’s crazy, and they will always make sure if you have to go somewhere alone that you’re prepared

- “Got your knife?” “What about the mace?” “Tell me again what you’re meant to do if a stranger approaches!”

- of course, they teach you their way of life too, and soon you’re a highly chaotic, perfectly functional family!

- post-doll, they rely on you a fair bit more for doing things they can’t do, and you’re good at pretending they’re just dolls so you can sneak them into places

- either way, doll or not, you guys are a surprisingly powerful trio!

Beetlejuice

Okay, this was never going to be an issue for him.

Beetlejuice finds you in one of the decrepit houses he enjoys frequenting to scare the goth kids who hang out there.

You’re all alone, reading a book with a school bag by your feet, sat on the dilapidated porch. He wants to scare you so bad, creeping up behind you, his combat boots falling soundlessly with careful steps. He’s so close to you when he notices you’re sniffling.

Not only that, but there are wet droplets on the book pages he can see from over your shoulder, drops from where you’ve been crying.

Beetlejuice isn’t particularly mushy, especially not for strangers, but something about you makes him pause. Maybe it’s because you remind him of himself when he was alive, and young, and lonely.

Instead of spooking you, he sits down heavily next to you and causes several of the wooden boards to groan in protest. You jump, moving away from him until you see the very-much-dead face smiling back at you.

“So, uh, what’s up kid? You drop your candy or something? Boy troubles? Girl troubles? Both?” He’s leaning forward like a schoolgirl awaiting gossip, eyes eager and curious. You can’t help but feel pulled into his attentiveness.

Wiping your eyes, you drop your gaze to your book, shaking your head. “Nothing, just some issues at home. This is the only place I can get some peace and quiet.”

BJ huffs, knocking the book from your hands so you’re forced to look at him. “Listen to me, sport, you’re just radiating mischief potential, and you’re wasting your creative little mind sat here crying over some losers who don’t deserve you anyhow!”

His pep talk takes you by surprise, and he uses the moment to haul you to your feet, a snake falling from his sleeve as he does so. He seems unperturbed by this, his eyes still locked excitedly to yours.

“I need a partner in crime, things been real stale lately, ya know? Need a fresh perspective!” He holds both of your hands in his, the cool skin soothing yours, a firm grip keeping you grounded and out of your own head.

“So, whaddya say? You come scare the shit out of some folks who deserve it, and I keep the assholes off your back - it’s a win-win!”

- you’re the most terrifying and perfectly suited pairing ever

- he has so many ideas and gets so excited, but you’re the one who keeps him calm, picking the best idea, astounding him with your own suggestions

- he takes you all over the place, but of course returns you back so you can continue with your schooling

- dessert nights and late night snacking are his favourite, especially when talking shit at the same time or watching some terrible television dramas

- BJ gets a tiny whiff of someone upsetting you and he’s there, haunting them for a solid week until they tremble at the sight of you

- unlike the others, he won’t reveal his terrifying, nightmare-inducing looks in front of you because he doesn’t want you to see him that way

- he loves you so much, he gets a whole bunch of stuff for your birthdays and Halloween with him is so wild because he can walk among the living without anyone looking twice at him

- well, at least your life will never be boring again!

What would frat Peter! Be like if he found out the reader is a Virgin?

i put to much time into this

Main Masterlist / Add Yourself To My Taglists

Warnings : SMUT! (dirty talk, slight degrading, protected sex, oral [fem rec]), cursing, floof, peter going from simp to cocky real quick

Word Count : 4.6k (okay why is this longer than 90% of my oneshots i-)

Frat!Peter finding out the fem!reader is a virgin

It all starts when you and Mj are lounging in your shared apartment watching a movie like you both did every Sunday

The both of you were cuddled into the endless amount of blankets on either side of the couch, eyes trained on the bright screen in front of you

But your mind was focused on something else, namely a certain brown haired boy that just couldn’t seen to leave you alone

Peteyboi💗👀: hows the movie going lovebug??

you : lovebug?

you : thats a new one

Peteyboi💗👀: just trying out new things

Peteyboi💗👀: spicing stuff up a bit yk?

Peteyboi💗👀: do you like it?

you : im not really opposed to it

Peteyboi💗👀: ill add it to the list then

you : list?!

Peteyboi💗👀: pretend you didn't read that

You giggled at your boyfriends words, mouthing a quick sorry to MJ when she gave you a hard glare with the sudden burst of noise

But you couldn't help it, every time you saw the notification pop up on your phone, you couldn't help but act like a lovesick teenager falling in love for the first time

At this point the both of you had been dating for around seven months

Seven months of cliche coffee dates and pulling all nighters

Seven months of stolen kisses in the library or holding hands under the table during lectures

Seven months of pure bliss

“So why haven’t you guys fucked yet?” MJ said abruptly shaking you out of your love sick stare texting Peter

“I’m sorry, what!?”

“You know,” she pounded her fist into the palm of her hand repeatedly, “Sex,”

 “What- I-” you shook your head, trying to process her words, “How did this come up all of a sudden?”

“Since you decided to ignore me on our movie night,” she smirked, “Were you sexting him?”

“WHAT!”

“So I’ll take that as a no?”

“Yes thats a no!” you buried yourself further into the blankets, “Should-” you took a deep breath, “should it be a yes?”

“I don’t know, should it?”

“Oh that’s a good question! Almost like I already asked it,”

Mj laughed at your pouty glare

“No, no it shouldn’t,” she rested a comforting hand on your leg, “Do you want it to be though?”

Yes you did

More than anything

It was stupid, but what you had with Peter was different from anything you’ve had with other people in the past

He was everything a girl could ask for, smart, caring and a sweet personality that could make anyone smile

Let’s not mention his impressive build

And out of all the girls and guys that threw themselves at him, he choose you to love

You wanted to take that step with him, but you were scared that he would reject you

You weren’t experienced, in any way, to the point where you were completely innocent 

And you were dating a frat boy, the name that carried the reputation of sleeping around with most people on campus

How could you match up to that?

You couldn’t help but feel insecure in that area

The most you’ve ever went with Peter was a heavy make-out, it happened quite often too but he always stopped things before they went any further

There wasn’t any explanation, only peter bringing you close to cuddle for the rest of the night, forgetting the spit covering his lips and neck

Which lead you to make your own and none of them were exactly positive

Didn’t stop you from imagining a life where he wouldn’t drop you figuring how untalented you were in bed though

Or just daydreaming of him railing you out of existence

im looking you

“Yes?” you covering your face with your hands, embarrassed with your confession, “I don’t know about him though,”

MJ was aware that you were a virgin but only scoffed at your answer, “Oh come on, that boy is head over heels for you, why wouldn’t he want to fuck you,”

You felt your face heat up with the choose of words, “If he did wouldn’t he have made a move by now?”

“Better question, have you noticed his moves,”

Her question made you think as she continued

“Because I sure have,” 

“What do you mean?”

She rolled her eyes, “The looks he gives you when your not paying attention,” she started to count on her fingers, “Always touching you, constantly, like all the time. Biting his lip anytime you do anything remotely sexual and always blushes afterwards because he caught himself. Oh! Remember that time you wore that skirt? Like the pretty tight one? Yeah, his eyes were on your ass for like the whole day-”

“Okay, okay you could stop now I get it,” you groaned, “How do you know all of this?”

“I’m observant,”

“Makes sense.”

“The point is, he’s is definitely interested in you Y/n, it’s just a matter of you showing interest back.”

“I-” you sighed, “I can’t do that mj,”

“Like hell you can’t,” she rolled your eyes but pried your hands away from your face softly, “Do you want him to be your first Y/n?”

You nodded your head, “Yeah,” you looked back at her, “Yeah, I do,”

“Then you need to talk it out with him, see where you both stand when it comes to that regard in your relationship,” 

“I know, I know, I’m just scared for his reaction,”

MJ only sighed, “This is Peter we’re talking about y/n, he’d respect your boundaries until your ready, and I know you’ll respect his. Its just a matter of who makes the first step,”

“Okay, okay,” you took a deep breath, “I’ll just ask him when I could see him again and just-” you paused, “Ask him,”

“There we go!” MJ cheered as you reached for your phone

Peteyboi💗👀: hello??

Peteyboi💗👀: hellooooooooo

Peteyboi💗👀: is this about the list?

Peteyboi💗👀: i promise ill try them all out sugar

Peteyboi💗👀: ...

Peteyboi💗👀: tbh i didnt like that one

You looked up at MJ, motivated by her reassuring eyes and words, you texted back

you : dont worry petey, the list is cute 😂

Peteyboi💗👀: good good

Peteyboi💗👀: did mj catch you??

you : maybe

you : i blame your clinginess

Peteyboi💗👀: i thought you said you liked my clinginess🥺

you : never said it was a bad thing 😘

Peteyboi💗👀: you implied it tho 😪

you : nah

you : i think thats just you

“What did he say?” MJ interrupted, her legs bouncing up and down anxiously

“I- uh, didn’t get to it yet,”

“I will take that phone, throw it across the room and make you do this in person if you keep stalling,”

You didn’t want to test her words

you : i miss you tho

Peteyboiiii💗👀: sorry babe, just been really busy with the internship

you : i know petey dw

you : do you know when you’ll be free next?

Peteyboiiii💗👀: uuuuhhhh

Peteyboiiii💗👀: the guys are suppose to be out Thursday

Peteyboiiii💗👀: i was suppose to tell you tomorrow but you beat me too it😂

you : oh really?

Peteyboiiii💗👀: would be just the two of us...

fuck circumstances

you : its a date then?

Peteyboiiii💗👀: hey! thats my line😤

you : sorry for stealing your thunder loverboy

Peteyboiiii💗👀: 👁👄👁

you : oh so you could do pet names but i cant???

Peteyboiiii💗👀: never said it was a bad thing 👀

you : ...

you : goodnight peter

The couple of days leading up to the Thursday were stressful to say the least

But MJ was there to hype you up, telling you everything that you should expect, what signals to use and even going out of her way to buy you a red set of lingerie

“It’s going to be awkward at first-”

“Well no shit it’s going to be awkward at first,”

“Hey! No talking back to your teachers,”

“Sorry...”

The drive to the house was nerve wrecking

You were anxious to see his reaction, but even with the doubt clouding your head, there was a ray of light that passed through, reminding you that Peter wasn’t that type of guy

That these past months have proved that he loved you, and you loved him

That he wanted this just as much as you did

You just needed to show him that

He greeted you at the door with a bear hug, rocking you back and forth in his arms

“I’ve missed you angel,” he whispered into your ear, pressing a kiss to your neck that made the hairs on your skin raise

“Angel?” you squeaked, “Where did that come from?”

“The list remember?” he pulled back, beaming brighter than you’ve ever seen, “going down one by one. I quite like this one though,” his voice lowered, “Angel, suites you don’t your think?”

“Yeah,” you cleared your throat, “Could we go inside?”

“Yeah of course,” his hand squeezed your waist, moving to small of your back and leading you inside

You didn't know how long you could last. With the new pet names, your hyperawareness to his touch and all of his words suddenly having new meaning behind them

You started to miss being so oblivious

“It’s been so long since we’ve had a day together, holy shit,” he said, falling back against the cushions of his couch with his thighs spread making you gulp, “come here,”

“Huh?”

He pouted, “I want to cuddle with my girlfriend so come here,”

the dude likes cuddles leave him alone

You shook your head, remembering MJ’s words,

“First step, get into the bedroom,”

“Wouldn’t it be more comfortable in your room?”

Peter’s head tilted to the side in confusion, “We have the whole house to ourselves and you want to spend it in my room?”

You nodded, walking up to him and stretching out your hand for him to take, “What’s so wrong with your room?”

“nothing, nothing,” he sighed taking your hand and standing up, “Just not as comfy as the couch,”

“You’re just being dramatic,”

“Dramatic?” he teased, raising your hand to spin you around, pulling your back to his chest, “I know nothing of a sort,”

You knew it was suppose to be playful, you knew he was just teasing you like he always did

But the feeling of his hard chest against your back, his hair tickling the base of your throat and his arms wrapped strongly around your waist, keeping you tight against him

You couldn't help but imagine this in a very different scenario

“Ready to go then?”

You nodded, not sure if you could even form words correctly at that point

Peter smirked and within one motion he had you in his arms bridal style, taking you to the stairs that lead to his room

“Nothing of a sort my ass,” you mumbled into his neck, cracking a smile when you felt the vibrations of his chuckles rumble from his chest

“You should know me well enough by now angel,” he kicked open his door, closing it back with the heel of his shoe, “I like to play,”

You sure fucking hoped so

You shrieked when he threw you down on his bed, hopping on top of you and holding you down so you couldn’t move

“Peter!” you whined, giggling when his fingers trailed up your side

“What’s wrong angel?” he kissed your noise, moving to kiss your cheeks, your forehead and finally a small peck on your pouty lips, “Do you not like this,”

“No, no, no,” you cupped his face, keeping him still do you could look at him directly, “I love this,”

“good,” he whispered, bumping his nose against yours, lips brushing against each other, “Good,”

“great,” you whispered back, hesitantly raising your head to connect your soft lips on his

It was slow, reminding you of the first time you kissed in the park, trying to figure out you’d lead, you’d follow. Getting the timing right when opening your mouths, and tilting your heads at the right angle for the perfect combination of comfort and touch

It was almost like he was memoizing the motion, stopping after every movement before continuing again sometimes with the same thing or trying out something new

Soon enough his hands gripped the side of your waist, pulling you up slightly to flip the both of you over so that you were on top

He pulled you closer, your chest practically moulding into his when his tongue swiped along your bottom lips, asking for entrance

You gave it to him immediately, letting him explore your mouth in any way he wanted

It went on like that for a few minutes, just the two of you sloppily making out in the middle of his bed. You tried to take it a bit further, grinding your hips subtly but his grip tightened and he pulled away, pressing his forehead against yours

“I missed that angel,” he whispered, grinning at your small giggle

“Me too,” you paused, letting out a shaky breath, trying to recover from the kiss and ignore the wet feeling in your pants, “Could I ask you something?”

“Anything,”

It was now or never, “Why did you stop?”

“Well I- uh, didn’t think you would want to kiss for the rest of the day,” he laughed to cover the crack in his voice, “I know I’m irresistible angel, but you don’t want to wear me out so soon,”

You bit your lip, “But what if that’s what I want?”

Peter’s eyes widened as he shifted on the bed, “You- you want that?”

“Only if you do,” you started to regret your words, “You know what? Just forget I said anything-”

He quickly cut you off with a kiss making you gasp lightly at the sudden contact, “I want that more than anything,” he said quickly, “It’s just- I don’t want to force you into anything, didn’t want to make you feel obligated in any way,”

“I- I want this peter,” your said, feeling the heaviness on your chest disappear, “I want this with you,”

“Are you sure?”

“More than anything.”

“Okay, okay,” he nodded, trying to hid his smile as he lifted you off his lap, laying you gently on the bed, “Hold on, I’ll be right back,”

You watched with your head tilted in confusion when peter walked out of the room only to come back with a blindfold in his hands

“Petey, as much as i would love to, you know it’s my first time and uh-”

He quickly caught on to what your implying, burning bright red, “No, no, no that’s not what this is for,” he scratched the back of his neck, “I want your first time to be special and this is a bit rushed but I want to surprise you and make it nice,”

“Oh,” you stood up, “Okay yeah,”

Peter walked behind you, gently laying the blindfold around your eyes and tying it behind your head. He leaned down to place a cheeky kiss on your neck, trailing up to behind your ear

“Stay here,” he demanded softly before stepping away leaving you frozen in place

He couldn’t help but stand back for a few minutes and admire your state. Your feet were tilted inward, hands rubbing your shoulders with your head tilted down

The perfect display of submission

But he had to kick those thought aside, just for today

After a couple of minutes of waiting, you jumped when you felt hands on your arms, calming when you recognised the rough skin

“Are you ready?” he could hear the smile in his words

“Yes,”

The blind fold feel from your face, your eyes blinked rapidly, trying to adjust to the light

But it was a lot darker than before, the lights dimmed drawing attention to the groups of candles sitting on his nightstand. The sheets were different as well, the white blankets replaced with soft black ones, the grey pillows now red with intricate designs sewn into them

“It isn't much but, I hope it’s everything you dreamed it would be,”

“It’s that and more Peter,” you smiling, turning around in his arms to place a quick kiss to his cheek, “Now it’s time for my surprise,”

You pushed him down on the edge of the bed, turning around and taking off your hoodie, shuffling out of your black tights to reveal the lingerie 

You turned around with a harsh exhale, feelings small under his gaze

“fuck, you were ready for tonight weren’t you baby?”

You fiddled with your fingers in front of him, “MJ helped me,”

“Figured,” he took your hand, pulling you back to gently straddle his waist, “You’d be beautiful in a potato sack angel, you have nothing to worry about,”

You shook your head, wrapping your arms around his shoulders and settling in his lap, “I find that hard to believe,”

“Then let me show you,”

He leaned in, kissing your lips briefly and pulling back, smirking when you mindlessly chased them

“tease,” you muttered, your forehead falling against his

“You love it,” 

“Yeah, yeah I do,”

You both leaned back in, your mouths perfectly in sync as your lips moved against one another, the practise before hand helping tremendously  

Your arms tightened around his neck, your hands running through his soft brown locks, tugging lightly on the strands

He groaned into your mouth, bitting the your bottom lip and pulling lightly, “You’re going to be the death of me angel, you know that?”

You only giggled, “Seems more like a you problem,”

“Oh? Is that how it is,”

You nodded shyly, playing with the edge of his shirt, “I just think it’s unfair that I’m the only one without a shirt on,”

Peter bit his bottom lip, reaching down and pulling off his shirt and connecting your lips right after. He hooked his arms under your thighs, lifting you up as he stood and lying you back down on the bed

He moved his lips from yours, down your throat to your colour bone, leaving his own marks in the process

Sealing you as his

And his only

“Can I?” he gestured to the front clip of your bra

You nodded, lost in the feelings of his lips on your skin

“Words angel,”

“Yes, yes please,”

He laughed, “Didn’t even get to the main event and you’re already begging for me,” 

You whined, “Peter,”

“Sorry, sorry,” he mumbled, unclipping the garment, helping you raise slightly so he could fully discard it to the side

“Beautiful,” he whispered before latching his mouth on your left nipple, stimulating the other with his forefinger and thumb

“Oh my god,” your hand shot to his hair, tugging at them slightly while the other took the sheets tightly in its palm

“Feeling good angel?” he smirked knowing damn well the answer

He just wanted to hear you say it

“So good Peter,”

He chuckled, switching to the other nipple, “We haven’t even reached the good part Y/n,”

You only let out a shaky sigh, your hand falling from his hair once he started to move further down your body

He liked that he could make you melt with the minimum things he could do

He wanted to remind you that he had the power to do so

And you enjoyed it

Your back arched when he kissed down your stomach, his fingers trailing down the side and hooking them on the lace of your panties

He looked up at you, waiting for your confirmation 

“Please,” you said once again, raising your legs slightly so he could take them off easily

“So needy,” he muttered, taking them off in once motion, crawling back up to place himself between your thighs, “Going to make you feel so good angel, so fucking good,”

His arms wrapped themselves snuggly around the base of your leg, pulling your core down closer to his face

“Ready?” he purred, trailing kisses up your thigh

“Yes,”

“Good.”

He took a bold lick up the length of your pussy, his tongue swirling around the bud of your clit

“Holy fuck Peter!” you shouted, bitting down on your finger to suppress your noise

“No, no, no angel I want to hear you,” he almost growled, “I want to hear you scream for me, know that I’m the only one that would ever get to hear and make you feel this way,”

His possessiveness turned you on even more

You slowly moved your hand from your mouth, placing it down by your side as peter continued eating your pussy like a starved man, listening to your moans and paying attention to your sudden jerks and reactions to his movements

“Taste so good angel, fuck. I’ve been fantasising about this moment ever since I laid eyes on you,” his fingers started to play with your lips, “The things i’ve wanted to do you, to absolutely ravish you, make you my own” he plunged his finger slowly into you, his strength keeping you pressed against the mattress, “But that’s for later, today is all about you,”

You couldn't even form a word when he added a second finger, sending your head back against the pillows. It was so much, his mouth toying with your clit, his fingers entering you that were so much thicker than yours, hitting places that made your eyes roll to the back of your head in pleasure

With the third finger you could feel something change, a sudden spike run up your body, clearing your mind of everything but the feelings of your high quickly approaching

“Peter I-”

“Going to cum angel? Gonna cum all over fingers?”

“Yes Peter fuck!”

“Go ahead Y/n, cum for me,”

You high reached with his words, shaking your body. Peter slowed his pace, dragging out your orgasm for as long as possible

He crawled back up your body, stilling his fingers inside of you while littering your blown out face with kisses, awarding you with his touch

“You did so well angel,” he whispered, “So fucking well,”

“Really milking the use out of that name huh?” you managed to mummer, throwing your arms lazily around his neck, not wanting him to leave any time soon

“Do you want me to change it?” he teased, pulling out his fingers, muttering a small sorry when you winced

He brought his fingers to his mouth, sucking your wetness of his skin while more continued to form at his dirty display

“How about...” his fingers popped out of his mouth, moving to caress your face, leaving a trail of his spit down your cheek, “Princess, my pretty princess,”

Your legs clenched at his tone and new name, making Peter giggle, “Princess it is then,”

He reached over to his bedside table, grabbing a condom and ripping the package open. He rolled the plastic on his impressing length, making you both drool and scared that that’s what was going inside of you

When he took off his sweatpants? you didn’t know

He flipped the both of you over for what felt like the hundredth time that day. His hands were tight on your hips, keeping you hovered over his hard cock

“We go at your pace okay?” his looked at you with dark eyes, “Are you sure that-”

You cut him off with a messy kiss, taking his member into your hand and guiding it to your hole 

“You talk to much,” you mumbled, taking the red tip inside you with a groan

He moaned with you, your pussy tight and snug 

“Take it easy,” he whispered, whipping off a bead of sweat that began to form on your forehead, “We have all the time in the world,”

“So big,” you whimpered, slowly take him inch by inch. Soon enough you started to loose balance on your knees, falling forward with your hands on his chest and your thighs relaxing, letting him bottom out inside of you

“Fuck,” you both said in unison, letting out a breathy laugh

“It kinda hurts,” 

“Well I’m not exactly average in that department-”

You scoffed, moving around on his lap, trying to find a comfortable position

“Tell me how you’re feeling princess,”

“It- it’s getting better,” you were fully relaxed now, “I- I want to start moving,”

“Go ahead Y/n,” he raised himself up so that his chest was pressed against yours, “I’ll guide you okay?”

“Okay, okay,”

You started moving up and down, more so just humping his body because your legs already starting to feel weak

But peter was patient with you, constantly making sure you were okay and keeping his eyes on your body

Not like he wanted to take them of of you

You looked angelic above him

No wonder the name suited you so much

Your mouth open, hips moving slowly bringing the both of you pleasure you’ve never experience before

He wanted to keep that picture in his mind forever, framed in his memory

Because you weren’t some girl at a party he picked up or guy he drunkly made out with

You were someone he loved, with all his heart 

That trusted him enough to share this moment with him

And just perfect an every way

“You’re doing so well princess,” he groaning, staring to rut his hips back into yours, making your moans grow even louder

“Fuck,” you fell against his chest, “Peter,”

“You want me to take control princess? Too fucked out already?” he couldn’t help himself while muttering those words, getting lost in the feeling of you

“Please peter I can’t-” he cried, “Please,”

“I got you princess,” he planted his feet on the mattress, thrusting up roughly into you, “I always got you,”

He began pounding into you, gradually getting faster and faster as your whines and moans grew louder and louder

Your second orgasm was quick on its way, and with Peter’s pace becoming irregular, you could tell he was almost there as well

“So fucking tight princess,” he groaned, pressing his cheek against yours, “Are you close,”

You mewled in response

“Cum with me princess, scream my name and cum on my cock,”

“Peter!” you shouted, cumming hard on his member and sagging against his chest

You could feel the condom begin to fill up inside of you, his hips stilling against yours

Part of you wondered how it would feel shooting inside of you without the protection

From there it was a blur, the feelings of peters lips against your skin, his arms wrapped around you, something cold and wet moving across your body

You caught your bearings when Peter pulled you into his chest, his shirt now covering your form along with the same fluffy blankets that covers the couch downstairs

Peter started, “That was-” 

“Amazing,” you finished for him, giggling and cuddling further into his chest

Peter looked down at you, his hand caressing your face like he did moments before but this time his touch was filled with comfort and reassurance, “Are you alright?”

“Better than I’ve ever been,” you giggled, peter chuckling along with you

“I think I’m going to need to start adding names to that list,” 

You looked up at him, “Like what?”

He sighed, a sly smile forming on his face

“I think I’ll start off with my little slut,”

...

fun fact, this was originally gonna be different types of frat peter like cocky, soft etc like some fucking frat peter multi verse but i just lost interest halfway through. 

My mind just said no♥️ so i scraped that and this was born instead

To my Future Child| Hunter pt 2

You asked for this,

Warnings little suggestive

Reader: Female

Part one

"What do you think she's all happy about?" Echo asked, plants in hand looking towards Hunter and Y/n.

"Who cares." Tech spoke.

"Uh let me see. I do" Echo answered.

"If it makes her happy, then let her be, she deserves it." Tech responded standing up and placing the herbs on the open book, "stop starring its creepy,"

"Im not staring!" Echo argued as Tech rolled his eyes, "Im thinking."

"About what? That?" Tech hinted.

"I uh. No!" Echo argued, a flush coming to his pale skin.

"Just give her the damn thing already." Tech stated.

"Easier said than done." Echo responded as he watched her laughed and be twirled around, "I just dont wanna barge in on there relatioship."

"You see her as a motherly figure," Tech told, "and Im sure Hunter knows it's just a simple gift. Im sure you wont be intruding on anything."

Tech took the book from Echo to write some things down.

"I guess..." Echo spoke taking a doll out his bag, he had made it for her.

It was a clone doll, its helmet missing and was replaced with a girl's face, with big button eyes that matched hers. He had ment to give it to her on what normal families called mothers day, but got to nervous and kept his secret craft skills to himself.

"Im gonna go to Omega in the feild."

Tech sighed, "uh huh."

Echo made his way over to the group, Crosshair now up with his own flower crown on his head as he yawned, Echo coming over as Omega got up, placing one on Echo's head as he smiled.

Y/n with Hunter watched the group from a far as Hunter had a hand on her hip.

"You know. No matter what people say, you're all a good batch. A real loveable batch."

Hunter chuckled as he kissed her cheek, "thats a first."

She chuckled in return, "come on. I wanna start makin the food, they can stay busy while I do."

Hunter only followed in her footsteps, there hands holding, and fingers intertwined. In all honesty it was perfect to her, Hunter helping her with a fire, and her returning with a large soup pot confusing Hunter as he had never seen the pot before.

"Where did you get that from?"

"I have my ways."

He chuckled as they both walked towards the near by mountian, fetching fresh spring water as they returned, the two usuing team work to carry the heavy pot back.

"You like to cook." Hunter commented.

"Yeah. I enjoy it. It relaxes me." Y/n smiled.

"So. If we do settle down," Hunter spoke, "do you want to stay at home? Or do you want to continue doing missions?"

Y/n thought for a moment, "I never really thought about that."

"Oh."

"Oh?" Y/n questioned, "well do you want me to stay home if when we have a child?"

"Well- I- I dont know." Hunter explained, "I dont know about you know... Just uh some stuff with Omega."

"I don't know much either you know." Y/n explained.

"Right. Sorry."

"No need to apologize."

It went silent for a number of seconds both skinning the animal the boys had caught.

"Could...could I ever stay at home?" Hunter questioned.

"With the children? You take care of the kids full time?" Y/n questioned, she didnt see why not, but she knew babies needed to be breast fed, so she'd have to stay with them for atleast a month, but then again she could use a pump- could she pump that much breast milk out all at once? She'd have to research that."Yeah, I dont see why not."

"Really?" He questioned.

Y/n nodded, "yeah why not?"

"I. Well I- just felt wrong for even asking that..." Hunter responded, "I. Suppose it just doesn't seem normal."

Y/n smiled at him, "well since when are we normal?"

"Fair point." Hunter spoke with a smile, "We're far fetched from that."

He leaned over kissing her softly as she kissed back.

"You'd have to show me how to cook."

"Gladly."

They both contuined to cut up meat and vegetables, Y/n finishing before Hunter as she started to season the pot.

The small talk wandered off somewhere to the boys of the batch, and how they'd react to there decision. Wrecker would be the loudest for sure. Tech would start talking about reading up on it. Crosshair would most likely protest, saying there still being chased down. Omega would be exicted and Echo would be quiet.

Y/n frowned as Hunter easily discussed each of the others except Echo, he always seemed at a lost of words for the reg.

"I worry about him..."

"Tech? I think he'll be fine with his nose stuck in that book-" Hunter looked up from the vegetables as he frowned, the face she made upset him deeply.

"Hey, Cyare? Whats wrong?" Hunter spoke getting up, "if you're worried about Tech, Im sure I can keep an eye on him,"

Her frown only deepened, "but this isnt about Tech is it? Is it about the baby? If you're not ready we don't-"

"No. No..." Y/n spoke, "Echo..."

"Oh." Hunter spoke, "whats wrong with Echo?"

"I. Worry about him." Y/n responded, "hes so...closed...it worries me."

"I'll be honest I don't know much about Echo, I think we still put him as a reg, and himself as a droid more than anything." Hunter responded, "I'll admit it didnt help when I pulled that stunt on him...selling him as a fake droid."

Y/n frowned as she tossed the meat into the pot, followed by the vegetables.

It was unknown to both of them, this is what parent hood was actually like, constantly worrying, and fear, and the bad batch boys felt like a bunch of kids rather than men to Y/n, but still saw them as soilders.

"Y/n! Hunter!"

Omega jumped off Wrecker's shoulders with the help of the giant himself, "Look!"

Hunter kneeled down to her as he smiled looking at her flower crown in her hands, "Thats real pretty Omega. Huh? Cyare?"

Y/n turned her head looking down at rhe creation, "wow. Im jealous! Its so pretty!"

"Ta dah!" Omega cheered pulling out a second one, "Now both you can have one!"

"Wow!" Y/n cheered, "put Hunters on him first!"

Omega followed orders and placed the crown of flowers on his head as Y/n smiled, "wow dosen'f hunter look pretty now!"

Hunter flushed as Omega nodded, "Yep! Come on! Let me put yours on!"

Y/n leaned down as Omega placed a crown on her head too, "see! You both match!"

Hunter stood back on his two feet and Y/n stood back up, the two wearing matching lily flower crowns.

"We do dont we." Y/n smiled, Hunter was still flushed in the face as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Y-yeah."

Omega smiled as the others came to sit down near the fire, they all wearing different crowns. Tech still had his nose stuck in the book Y/n had let them see as Echo messing with one of the fresh picked flowers, petting the metals with his ungloved hand. Wrecker playing a hand game with Omega and Crosshair watching his brother get pummeled by the small girl.

Y/n smiled at everyones calmness, Hunter leaned into her side as she ran a thumb over his palm, but soon had to get up and stir the pot, taking a small sip.

"I need to get something else for this. Another herb. I'll be back."

Hunter sat up, "I'll go-"

"Can I go with Y/n?!" Omega spoke up quickly.

"I believe Echo should go." Tech informed.

"Tech!-"

"Echo?" Y/n questioned, "do you want to come?"

"No. Not at all!" He spoke nervously.

"Very well. Hunter do you want to go?" Y/n questioned.

"After all I can watch the pot. You and Omega go have fun. But the suns going down so be careful."

Y/n nodded, leaning down she kissed him as Crosshair gagged.

"Stop choking on my-" Y/n stopped looking down at Omega, "nevermind- come on kid jump on my back. We have a herb to find."

"Yeah!" She cheered hopping on Y/n's crouched over body as Y/n adjusted Omega on her back as the two left.

Omega waving for both of them.

"That could of turned out worse." Tech responded.

"We should be glad Y/n can catch herself." Echo responded.

"I can see it now," Crosshair spoke, "any kid within Y/n's radius before Omega arrived would know a number of new words. And they'd all march down the street at the top of there lungs screaming-"

"-Fuck?" Tech questioned.

"-shit?" Wrecker joined in.

"-bitch?" Echo questioned.

"No." Crosshair spoke, his evil plan coming together, "it would be 'Hunter'"

"I don't get it." Wrecker told.

"Seriously? We think she curses alot? Do you know how many times cries 'Hunter! Oh! Fuck Hunter! Daddy!'"

"S-she does not!" Hunter argued.

"Your right you're probably more verbal than her."

Hunter's face went red, his ears the redest as he dug his face into a cup he was drinking from. Crosshair enjoying teasing his brother, but Echo ruined it for him.

"You guys are pretty serious now huh?" Echo questioned.

Hunter pulled his cup down, "Yeah...time flies so quickly...we're getting serious more than ever now..."

"Planning on purposing?" Tech questioned.

"Planning on...kids actually."

Crosshair spit out his drink, the others following, Wrecker separately choking on his.

Y/n held Omega's hand as they were on a herb mission.

"Its too bad Kamino never had anything like this." She spoke holding the dandelion in her hand, "its all so pretty."

Y/n smiled, "it is isnt it."

Omega looked back up at Y/n, "How'd you meet Hunter?"

"Thats a long story for another time." Y/n responded.

It was silent for a few seconds.

"Its a later time now."

Y/n chuckled, "it is isnt it."

"So? Can I hear the story?"

"When your older." Y/n told her, another few silent seconds.

"Im older-"

"A year older."

"Aw man..."

Y/n chuckled, "okay I'll tell you a little bit."

"Really?!"

Y/n nodded as they contuined down a self made path.

"I snuck into the GAR." Y/n told her, "I'll never forget the expression on the generals faces. Priceless."

"You snuck into the Garrsion!?"

Y/n nodded with a smile, "and I fought of Savage and Maul. Two sith, with my bare hands. I proved I deserved to be there."

"Woah!" Omega beemed as Y/n spotted the herbs planted at the root of the tree, "how strong are you?!"

Y/n shrugged as she walked over, picking the plant, Omega by her side doing the same to some grass.

"Wait- but Hunters always been part of clone force 99? Right?" Omega questioned.

"Yes." Y/n spoke, "but. I. Was transferred and there clone force 99 was. In all its glory-"

"Oh! Oh! Let me guess!" Omega pleaded as Y/n nodded.

"You seen Hunter and fell in love! But he didnt love you! Someone else on the team did! Like Cross or Echo! Maybe Wrecker or Tech! But as soon as you started talking to one of them Hunter got jealous and ended up telling you how hopelessly in love he is with you! But in the end you both end up dead-" Omega went on, she had obviously found a romance holovid on the datapad given to her, "Wait- You can't die! Thats not fair!"

Y/n chuckled, "Thats not what happened at all."

"Thats good. I didnt want you to die at the end of the story." Omega spoke sitting on the grass as Y/n took a seat next to her, winding the bundle of herbs up with string.

"You and me both." Y/n smiled.

"Can I be in love? Like you and Hunter?" Omega questioned.

"One day you will be, perhaps with a boy, perhaps with a girl, maybe with neither, or with both." Y/n told Omega, "but dont worry about relationships like that your too young."

Y/n turned her head towards Omega who frowned as she picked at the dirt, "Whats wrong?"

"Are. Are you going to take Hunter away?" Omega questioned, "just leave and never come back?"

"Why would I do that?" Y/n questioned the saddening girl.

"Because he's always looking at you. And when we were in the market..."

"The market?" Y/n questioned, "what happened at the market?"

"I heard him talking to Echo about it, just you two...leaving." Omega protested.

The market? Oh...the market. The last time Y/n and Hunter, well- uh- laid together was that day, Hunter was under a serious amount of stress, last time they were in a market like that one Omega had been kidnapped. Y/n and Hunter did end up leaving that night after a clingy Omega fell asleep, both getting much needed alone time.

"I'd never take Hunter away, we. Just. Well we want to have alone time." Y/n tried to defend, "you know settle some relationship stuff."

"Oh...so you and Hunter aren't leaving?" Omega questioned warryingly, "I wouldn't want either of you to leave."

Y/n frowned, Omega clearly didnt know fully the skematics of the galaxy infront of her just yet. Hunter would have to leave one day, if not one way then another. They all would, it was just life.

"Omega, I could never leave, you all are too much a part of me now, all of you," Y/n spoke placing a hand on her shoulder as she looked up at Y/n, " so, Keep your head in the clouds, but keep your feet on the ground. Okay?"

Y/n stood up as Omega followed, catching Y/n's hand as they walked back to camp.

"What does it mean?"

"Hmm?"

"What you just told me."

Y/n smiled, "Keep yourself in the moment no need to worry, you're with us. Your family, but keep dreaming and dont stop."

The two contuined to walk, soon making it back up the hill as Omega's small hands were interlaced with Y/n's.

"Hey, Y/n." Omega questioned.

"Hmm?"

"You think you could tell me some of your old stories before bed?" Omega questioned.

"My old stories? Yeah. I'll see what I can do." Y/n spoke as they made it up thr hill, Omega rushing off to greet the others, Y/n made her way over to the pot pulling some of the herbs out and tightening the string on the group of herbs.

"Smells good already."

She looked besides her with a smile, "yeah. Wanna taste it in a sec?"

Echo nodded as she stirred the pot.

"Look. Mom- Y/n- I mean Y/n!" Echo corrected himself hands in the air infront of him in defense.

Y/n chuckled but smiled, "Yes son?"

She had thought of it as a joke- perhaps a slip of the words, but Echo's pale face turned bright red.

"I-"

Y/n raised her eyebrows they knitting at the center for concern.

"Here..." she was handed the small doll as she smiled.

"Aw. This is cute. Did you make it?" Y/n questioned.

Echo nodded, his foot seemingly intrested in the ground and so were his eyes.

"Its adorable. Thank you very much." Y/n smiled, leaning over she pecked his cheek then pulled away.

"Whats her name?" Y/n asked.

"Uh...I based it off you. So...Y/n I suppose." Echo responsed rubbing the back of his neck.

"Well. Then. Mini me. Its nice to meet you!" She spoke looking at the doll.

Echo chuckled softly, "Im glad you like it."

"Im glad you made it for me."

Hunter watched her interact with Echo, he would be lying if he said he didn't watch her interact with his brothers at all times, she was so calm with them so sweet, so nice, but knew she had to out her foot down at some point and did when needed.

He was jabbed in the side by Crosshair who sat next to him gesturing harshly to look at Omega who was infront of him, the small girl held the flower she had been showing the two off in her hand as she looked at Y/n, the small girl seeming to understand a bit more after her talk with Y/n, she looked at Y/n in admiration and in longing

"Omega?" Hunter spoke, "Something wrong?"

"Hmm?" Omega questioned looking back towards Hunter, "oh. You ever think I could ever be like you and Y/n?"

"You dont want to be like either of them." Crosshair spoke as Hunter pushed him, his brother laughing.

"You're a little young to be asking that question Omega," Hunter spoke.

"Y/n told me the same thing," Omega spoke as she looked at the flower.

"Whats the problem Omega?" Hunter questioned.

"You and Y/n. You're friends." Omega told, "you're always together, you always have each others backs can I ever have a friend like Y/n is to you? One my age like you and Y/n?"

"Oh," Hunter spoke, "Kid I know its hard, being on the run like this, and your a dreamer, a big one, you wanna help everyone."

Hunter ruffled her hair as she smiled, "You just gotta make sure you help the right people. Help the right people, and well, you can get someone like Y/n always at your back, but you have to be at theres."

Omega nodded as Hunter picked her up, letting her sit on his leg, "a little something Y/n taught me was, keep your-"

"Head in the clouds but your feet on the ground?" Omega questioned as Hunter looked at her, but soon smiled.

"Yeah."

Omega smiled as she looked back at Y/n her and Echo tasting the soup as they nodded at one another.

"Dinners done!"

"Come on kid." Hunter spoke as she got up.

Y/n helping in making them all bowls, and then all sitting down to eat.

"Excellent as always." Tech spoke eating his food.

"It gets better everytime!" Wrecker smiled.

Y/n smiled as Crosshair gave a nod in approval and Echo was too into his food to even comment on it.

"Its good." Omega smiled.

"Thank you. Im glad you all like it." Y/n smiled as he looked around.

"Where's hunter?"

"He went down towards the area from earlier." Tech spoke.

"Odd. Im gonna go see him."

Y/n got up taking her bowl with her as she left, the sky dark but some small glowing flowers lit some of her way, she made it down the hill and towards the open lay of land, forest surrounding both sides.

Seeing him sitting on a rock near the large patch of flowers she walked down towards him.

"Everything alright?" Y/n questioned.

He turned his head, "yeah. Just thinking."

Y/n took a seat next to him, "thats never good."

Hunter chuckled his bowl empty in his hand as Y/n poured half of hers into his with a smile.

"So. What are you, you know 'just thinking about'?" Y/n questioned.

"You." Hunter responded.

"Oh thats a good topic to think about."

Hunter chuckled once again drinking some of his soup.

"And well...us."

Y/n frowned, that was a sudden change in attitude.

"Okay us is here. Lets talk." She spoke.

"Mostly about the idea you had," Hunter spoke, "about, a baby."

Y/n nodded, "I just worry, and not just for the kid, but for you- for us- all of us- where do we live? Where do we go?"

"We could stay here." Y/n spoke, "Im sure theres a small city somewhere here. Or we could live out here and become farmers."

"You like the idea of being a farmer?" Hunter spoke.

Y/n look at him, "Mhm..well..imagine you as a farmer."

"Yeah?"

Y/n nodded leaning closer to him, "you'd look good in overrals."

He chuckled, "you're funny. Real funny."

Y/n smiled, "anything to make my farmer husband happy?"

He pushed forward kissing her as she kissed back.

Pulling away for a momment he lifted her chin up, "tell me more. What would I do?"

Kissing her shortly as tossed her bowl on the floor uncarrying if she lost her food.

"Well...we could tend the plants, get some blurrg, but my favorite-"

"Oh? You have a preference of farm work?"

"You chopping wood, with no shirt on." Y/n spoke messing with his chest plate.

"Yeah?" He leaned down kissing her neck, "anything else there farmer?"

She bit her lip, "yeah...what your doing."

"Theres alot more where that came from." Hunter spoke, "now I vote we make that baby now-"

Hunter picked her up as she laughed being brought into the feild of flowers and tall grass.

Laying her down he laid above her.

"Now what am I going to do with you?" Hunter teased kissing her softly.

"Put a baby in me?"

He laughed as she did, her arms wrapped around his neck.

"I love you Hunter.

"I love you to Mesh'la."

the blood on our hands

bakugou x gn!reader

aged up!

cw: a n g s t as hell. comfort. cursing, mentions of drinking, smoking, etc. alluding to depression and anxiety. dealing with trauma of missions and losing people. a ton of mentions of blood

this is a heavy topic in the hero universe i imagine- and generally in the mental health world of it all.

lyrics are from purple flowers by ande estrella which hold a very important meaning that has nothing to do with this- they just worked with the story. But fr go listen to it bc its so good.

come to my asks to be a part of my taglist! just let me know what kinds of fics/ what fandom/ what characters/ etc you want to be tagged in! Requests are open!!

------------------------------------------------

reality is heavy and loud

Spacing out was more than being distracted to Y/n. Being a young hero meant stressful situations, overbearing management, tight spaces, stuffy meetings, and so much... blood. It takes a toll on a young person. Of course they wanted to be a hero- wouldn't chose anything else. They grin and bear this shit for a reason- to save and help people.

But god, who saves the heros?

but white has the privilege of washing machines to wash out the stains from their comfortable jeans

Some nights, after wrap-up meetings, everything was a bit too heavy. The usual group of friends and young heroes would choose someone's house to go to in order to destress.

For some, that was smoking. For some, it was drinking, video games, napping, venting, sitting outside alone yet with company. And for some it was merely listening to everyone else.

Not having to make a decision. Not having to be responsible. That's what y/n picked every time.

Bakugou would always notice them alone in the corner of the room. They were the one to come up with destress gatherings after hard missions. Bakugou knew it was so they wouldn't be alone with their thoughts. That's why he would always step in at times like as get them to talk, so those thoughts dont stay trapped in their head.

"Hey." Bakugou muttered, sitting on the floor next to y/n in Denkis apartment.

"Hey."

"You good, dude?" Bakugou asked with genuine concern.

He was always a bit nicer to Y/n. Nobody knew why, yet everyone knew why. They both were fragile and chose to hide it during the day, being strong around others to not raise red flags.

"I'm okay...just. That one was bad. I almost lost that kid. Like she almost fucking- died in my arms." Y/n choked out.

"Hey hey hey, its okay. You got her to the ambulance in time. You did that shit. You always do. You're the best in the game at comforting little twerps." Bakugou attempted to comfort them- somewhat succeeding and holding their head against his chest.

One time, Y/n mentioned that they held kids against their chest during rescues to calm their heartbeat. "If you listen to a calmer heartbeat, you're more likely to try to match it and slow your own down." Of course you wouldn't think Y/n would be able to have a calm heartbeat during a rescue, but they are very talented at controlling their nerves. Part of being a hero.

wiping the blood off their hands to their thighs, wearing the blood of the people who've died

Y/n subconsciously calmed down a bit, Bakugou's ability to remember every word that drips off of Y/n's lips paying off.

"I know. I just can't stop...thinking about everyone I've- we've lost. Its so unfair."

"I know. Hey, you have- uh. Lets go to the bathroom." Bakugou noticed a smudge of blood on Y/n's face and a bit on their hands. Cleaning up was the last thing on their mind earlier on.

"Ok."

Taking each other's hands, they walked into the bathroom. Bakugou sat Y/n on the counter, turning on the sink and grabbing a cloth.

"O-oh god. Thats fucking blood. I thought I washed my h-hands." Y/n began panicking, causing Bakugou to put their hands under the water with soap, washing it all off for them.

Tears mixed with the water from the sink and Bakugou stayed silent. Wiping their face, Bakugou looked into Y/n's eyes. These two have just always known.

They know what people can hide. What secret messages the body language of a person can hold. And he let them grip onto the back of his shirt as he held them in his arms, Y/n not being able to cry anymore and just breathing in his scent from his shoulder.

but dont let the purple flowers fool you

"Listen. We're going to get through this one. I know its hard on you- all of the families involved. But you- we saved them. We're all here for each other right? I'm here for you." Bakugou pulls Y/n back a little to look into their eyes. "You are the strongest one here. I know it fucking hurts. I know it is so...scary-" He sniffles a little, letting his own emotions take over. Something only he did when they were alone together. "- but we're heroes. And human. We are allowed to feel pain and sadness and disappointment- but we're heroes for a reason, right? We can handle this shit."

"I know we can. We always have. Just... promise you'll never leave me?"

"Youre so stupid. I've been more careful lately." He scoffs, wiping tears from his face. He of course knew that Y/n was referring to a few weeks ago when Bakugou got too caught up in the mission and was almost crushed by debris. He was pulled away in time by a fellow hero but it still opened his eyes, as well as Y/n, to how fragile they are, even if they are the heroes.

"I know Kats, but please. You're my rock in here. You're my person." Y/n says looking into his eyes.

"And you're my person. I can't leave you behind. You wouldn't know what to do without me here." Bakugou chuckles, earning a shove from Y/n.

"Katsuki." Y/n starts, holding his hands in their own.

"Yeah." He sighs.

"I don't speak lightly of feelings, you know that right?"

"Of course I know that. You don't talk much about those to anyone-"

"Except you." They interrupt Bakugou, reminding him of the importance of their unspoken bond and making his heart race.

"Yeah."

"Then you'll know how hard it is for me to say this. But- Katsuki I think I love you. I know we aren't super affectionate outside of being alone but- I've never felt what I feel with you before. I understand if you don't feel the same way and if this was all just because you felt bad but I needed to tell you that because you're really important and this is very import-"

Bakugou, in the most cliche turn of events, cuts Y/n off with a kiss to shut them up.

Pulling away, Bakugou rests his forehead on Y/n's .

"I love you too. I thought that was obvious when I never stopped you from saying my first name, idiot." He chuckles lightly.

"I kinda figured you at least liked me-"

"I'm going to keep you safe forever. That means physically and emotionally. No more hiding any feelings from me just because there are people around. Pull me aside. Hold me if you need or want to- I dont care if the whole world sees that. But just- fuck Y/n. I know you feel fragile. I know what it's like to be scared and hide it. I'm your diary now, ok? Always."

"Thank you...Katsuki. Fuck. You're everything I've ever needed. Plus youre kinda cute too I suppose." Y/n giggles.

"Oi fuck off." Bakugou kisses them again, relieved that he can finally be himself with Y/n, that he has them finally.

"I'm your diary too them, okay? I mean it. Anything, any time, say the word." Y/n says lightly, squeezing Bakugou's hand.

"Fuck. I love you."

"I love you too. I love how that sounds coming from you by the way."

"Me the fuck too-" Bakugou was interrupted by a loud yelling-

"I GOTTA PISSSSSS" followed by banging on the door.

"MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T DRINK SO FAST THEN LIGHT WEIGHT!" Bakugou responds, recognizing the voice of Denki.

"DONT MAKE FUN OF MEEEE I'LL LAUGH AND PEE MYSELF" Denki whined.

"Let's go, angel." Bakugou whispers into Y/n's hair, kissing them on the head and helping them off of the counter.

Any blogs that LOVE Momrry and Daddy Louis you can rec.? Really dont like Mommy Louis kinda things, almost ALL of my dashboard is mommy Louis / MILF Louis, not hating to those peeps who like it tho! You do you but I JUST LOVE Momrry...

Omg, yeah, SAME, the loummy crowd is really just--yeah, that's a no from me. I remember one of them trying to come tell me I copied them, and I was like, uh, you started your blog last month, this has been here from 2019, nice try! Also, the inaccuracy???? It's off the charts! I have yet to see Louis Tomlinson do this and the other one thousand related things, like tying album promo to literal childbirth (a song, too!):

Anyway, before I rant myself into the sun, I don't follow too many other blogs, but I see URLs that would seem to match in my mentions from time to time. I suggest doing some searches on daddy louis or mommy harry or anything related (check the replies here, too--any blog that someone else knows about, put it in the replies so we can all can find it, too, I swear more blogs arise on those themes every week!)

all smiles here (jackie groenen x photographer!reader)

focusing on your new job turns out to be a hundred times harder after seeing the smiley dutch midfielder..

word count: 2343 ish

——

today was the day.

here you were, 22, fresh out of college and about to step foot onto the dutch training pitch for the first time and start your new job.

last night you had spent hours fretting over tiny details, making sure your cameras were charged and ready, your lenses were wiped clean, and that everything was nice and tidy.

you had planned to wake up extra early, making sure you had time to get everything situated and set before practice began.

that was the plan.

that’s.. unfortunately not what happened.

in your excitement, you had forgotten to set an alarm, which led to your current predicament, biking as fast as you can, racing through the dutch streets.

you glance down at your watch, narrowly missing a parked car as you do so.

you arrive at 7:58, just in the nick of time.

seeing that the team was already out stretching, you throw your bike down with a crash and run onto the field.

the crash of your bike hitting the pavement caused a few heads to turn your way, with a certain number 14 taking particular interest in your entrance.

blind to the commotion you caused, you laid your camera bag gently down along the side of the field (amongst the other photographers), then bend over unceremoniously, trying hard to catch your breath.

considering you had biked 5 miles in 10 minutes, you were spent, forgetting all your excitement in the process.

when your heart rate had somewhat slowed, you began setting up your equipment, and quickly the nerves and excitement arose once again.

you picked up your camera and took a photo of the closest player to test lighting (that player being sari van veenendaal), all the while internally screaming that that was the fifa 2019 best goalkeeper while doing so.

disregarding how much of a mess your morning was, the next hour went splendidly.

you managed to get a few shots of miedema with gorgeous lighting, photos that your manager undoubtedly would want to publish later on.

few photos were “unusable” (you were pretty damn good at your craft), and your camera roll was soon flooded with a wide variety of individual and group pictures.

at this point you had almost gotten all the players individually, your task being to get each of them by the end of practice, which was coming up shortly.

you snapped a few pictures of wilms, grinning widely when you see how well they turned out.

scanning quickly through the list of players, you sigh with relief when you realize you only have one more player to take photos of, #14.

you scan the field with your camera quickly and your breath promptly catches in your throat.

jackie was laughing at something daan was saying, her smile gorgeously on display.

you couldn’t help but stare, your hand lowering the camera as you forget the task at hand.

but how could anyone blame you?

she was, without a doubt one of the most gorgeous people you had ever seen.

her gaze meets yours suddenly, you let out a squeak of surprise in response and fumble your camera, breaking eye contact as you lunge forward to catch it.

you let out a sigh of relief when you grasp it, cheeks blood red at your actions, the older photographer next to you letting out a chuckle as he shook his head.

“kid you gotta be more careful.”

you nodded and smiled at him kindly, before shaking your head quickly and resuming to the task at hand.

with the ten minutes before the end of practice, you took, in total, one photo of jackie.

this was a disaster.

you just kept getting lost staring at her, this time through the lens of your camera, so starstruck that you forgot to actually take pictures.

you let out a sigh as you began thinking of an excuse for your boss later.

~~

walking into the locker room, jackie rolled her eyes at jill’s words.

“but did you see her jacks? that new camera girl is..” jill letting out a low whistle to finish her statement.

“i mean i’m taken but i have to agree she is pretty cute” daan said, popping into the conversation.

soon whole the locker room began chatting about this “new camera girl”, and jackie couldn’t help but blush.

she had to agree with everyone, you were absolutely adorable, and watching you almost drop your camera upon seeing her only solidified that.

jackie was brought out of her thoughts by jill who, very loudly, pointed at her and said:

“oh. my. god. you like her.”

jackie swatted jill’s hand away.

“shut up no i don’t.”

“oh my god she’s blushing she totally does,” daan squealed.

the locker room was soon buzzing with excitement over jackie’s new crush, filling the air with:

a lot of “omg jackie!”

and

even more “ask her out!!”

with jackie of course very adamantly denying such a proposition.

even through all of the teasing, jackie couldn’t help but hope that she would see you again tomorrow.

~~

you arrived earlier the following day, much much earlier, so much so that no other photographers had arrived yet.

you set your bike nicely against the rack this time, taking your time to admire the nice day as you lay your bag along the edge of the field.

you take a quick look at your watch, 7:17, and upon seeing that no one was around, picked up a soccer ball you found in the corner of the field.

having played a little bit of high school and college soccer, you juggled the ball around a little bit and then attempted to score from midfield.

you hit the ball right into the corner of the net on your second try, jumping up in excitement, when you hear someone speak behind you.

“for a sports photographer, that wasn’t all that bad.”

you turn around abruptly and let out a small squeak of surprise when you’re greeted by the very girl who had enchanted you the day before.

she lets out a dazzling grin before putting out her hand and saying:

“hi i’m jackie.”

“i- uhm y/n” you mumble, eliciting a giggle from the dutch girl before you.

you wipe your palms against your jeans quickly and take her hand, trying to desperately ignore the sparks that shot up your arm from the contact.

an awkward silence followed for the next few seconds, until jackie spoke.

“so, y/n, do you want to kick a ball around with me before people get here?”

“i’m, uh i’m not that good i mean i played a little in high school and college but like just for rec teams and i mean you’re on the national level so like i’m i don’t know i should probably just stick to photography i hope i didn’t offend you i’m just not that great and i yeah.”

you stop your rambling and blush, hoping she can decipher your message through your jumble of words.

jackie just lets out a laugh and your heart melts a little at the sound.

“i can take a few pictures of you though if you’d like?” you offer, hoping to spend a little bit more time with the midfielder.

“i would love that.” jackie says, letting out an even larger smile if possible.

for the next fifteen minutes you took dozens of photos of jackie, all the while learning about her life in manchester and belgium, how she broke a bike on the way to practice once, her dogs, and other snippets of her life.

you honestly couldn’t believe that this girl, this incredibly attractive and funny and just stupidly gorgeous girl was talking to you.

it was 7:50 when the other players arrived, jill letting out a whistle and yell when she saw who was already on the pitch.

“get it jackie!”

the other players cheered as well, letting out wolf whistles when they saw the two of you.

jackie got up but before she left she turned and gave you a hug then saying:

“sorry about them. they’re quite an obnoxious bunch.”

you let out a laugh and the two of you parted ways as practice was about to begin, your heart beating so fast you were afraid it would burst.

~~

“y/n.”

your boss let out a sigh as he took his glasses off.

“why are there 864 photos of jackie groenen in your camera roll?”

“i- i dont know” you stammer.

“this isn’t what i meant when i said you took too little of her yesterday.”

you flushed a deeper shade of red in utter embarrassment.

if your conversation with your boss was any indicator, practice was a disaster.

it wasn’t the players or practice itself.

it was you. your gay mess of a self.

but you just couldn’t help but trail the midfielder for the entire practice, your lens (and eyes) never leaving her.

it was only at the end of practice when you looked through your camera roll when you’d truly realized just how many photos you had taken of her.

each and every page filled with pictures of the number 14, her smile as bright as the day.

in your defense, you had taken quite a few fantastic photos of her, though there was one that was your favorite in particular, with the sun shining at the midfielder at just the right angle, illuminating her eyes and leaving her smile with its signature glow.

and of course that was the photo that caught your boss’s eye, despite his disappointment of today’s “turnout”.

and of course he wanted to publish it immediately.

and of course jackie saw it. and posted it. and tagged you in it.

where did she even get your handle from?

~~

it was sort of an unspoken agreement between the two of you, with both arriving early each practice to spend time with one another.

each time there’s jackie, always smiling and always gorgeous, and each time there’s you, always bumbling and always blushing and always tripping over your words.

and occasionally your feet.

but jackie only saw it as endearing, and continued to talk to you even when you were making a fool out of yourself.

eventually came the time for the netherland’s first matchup against a team, that team being estonia for the euro qualifiers.

you were brimming with the excitement at attending your first match as a photographer, and you arrived extra early match day to set up and get a good spot on the field.

“well if it isn’t my favorite photographer.”

you spun around quickly to spot jackie in her full kit, a blush promptly forming on your cheeks and your heart skipping a beat upon seeing her.

somehow you managed to reply:

“well if it isn’t my favorite player.”

this was your first time saying something that remotely resembled flirting with her, clearly catching the midfielder in surprise, as her face flushed a bright red a second later.

“i’m offended. i thought i was your favorite player.” daan said, appearing behind jackie, who stood frozen.  

you rolled your eyes.

“hate to break up the love fest though, but we’ve got a game to play.” daan said, tugging on the arm of an even redder jackie groenen.

after they left, you continued setting up your equipment, checking lighting and just making sure everything was all set and ready for the game to start.

and boy was it a game. 

in short,

the netherlands absolutely destroyed estonia.

in a huge 7-0 victory for the netherlands, there were an abundance of great photo opportunities, and you got them all.

goal scoring shots and celebration shots, everything.

you however, did let out two very loud cheers when jackie scored, once in the 26th minute and again when she completed her brace.

you had forgotten how empty the stadium was in your excitement.

each time you shouted the dutch girl, blushed, met your eyes and grinned before being pulled away by a teammate, who said something that sounded a lot like:

“your girlfriend’s here cheering for you.”

but in general,

you had expected the dutch to win.

you had expected daan, jackie, sherida, aniek, and katja to score as much and as well as they did.

you had even expected that you would embarrass yourself in some way during the match.

what you didn’t expect however, was for jackie groenen to come running at you after the match.

you were packing up your equipment when you saw the dutch girl approaching, and you opened your mouth to congratulate her on the brace and win.

but before you could get a word out,

she pulled you in by the camera straps around your neck and kissed you.

you stood, frozen, as if you couldn’t believe what was happening (because you really couldn’t).

jackie had started to realize you weren’t reciprocating and began to pull back when you came to your senses.

you kissed her back, hands moving to her waist to steady the two of you.

it was everything you wanted a first kiss to be, passion fueled and full of sparks, her hands moving from your chest to cup your cheek.

jackie was the one who pulled away first, a smile plastered on her face much like the one that had drawn you to her that very first day at practice.

you pulled her in to kiss her again, forgetting that your camera was still looped in front of your chest, only noticing it when it was in the way of getting her closer to you.

you pull back with an annoyed huff and gently take the camera off, turning to drop it on the bench behind you.

“go out with me sometime” you say when you turn around again.

jackie’s face just splits into a sparkling smile.

“i thought you’d never ask.”

He's Back-Jon Moxley

You and Jon hadn't spoken in a little over a month. Ever since the argument you two had, he went on sabbatical. Wasn't showing up to work. You knew Seth or Roman has to know where he was, but they never told you.

They made an announcement last week that he would be here today, and you couldn't make up your mind on if you want to ignore him, or confront him.

"He's here." Seth tells you as your packing away your gear.

"And?" You question him as he leans up against the door frame.

"A month is a long time, Y/N." Seth says, crossing his arms over his chest. "He wants to speak with you."

"Then he knows where to find me." You tell him while pulling your suitcase off of the table, and making your way to the parking lot.

"Angel." You freeze when you hear the nickname he once had for you. You shut your trunk before turning around to face him.

"Jon." You state, and he takes a step forward to you. "It's late, and I had a long match so I'm heading home."

"I just need five minutes, please." He says, his blue eyes shining.

"You were gone for a month. You can handle one night." You tell him before walking around to your driver seat door. You go to open it when he shuts it, trapping you in between the car and him. "Mox, please."

"Five minutes is all I'm asking for. If you still hate me after that then I'll leave you alone." He says, but you can't look in his eyes. The tears build up in your eyes, and you shake your head. "I have a lot to explain to you."

"I can't do this tonight, Jon. I'll say the wrong thing. I'll scream, cry, probably shove you if you don't leave me alone." You tell him, and he just sighs.

"Fine." He says, and begins to walk away. "By the way, my mother is dead. Thought you'd wanna know."

You've never felt that much guilt. "Jon, wait." You call after him.

"That's why I was gone. I shut everyone out, not just you. Happy now?" He asks, tears in his eyes. "I told you I needed five fucking minutes." He says, shaking his head, and walking away.

You follow him until you catch his wrist. "I'm so sorry." You tell him, and now that you look at him, his eyes full of tears.

"I came back because I need you. I asked Seth and Roman not to say anything. Please dont take it out on them." He begs you, and you wrap your arms around his waist, pulling him close to you. "Baby, I don't know what to do without her."

"Come on, let's get you home, yeah?" You ask him, and he nods, following you to your car. The whole drive there was silent.

When you enter the house and into your bedroom, that's when you speak. "I'm so sorry Mox. I'm a horrible person. I can't imagine how you're feeling right now." You tell him as he sat at the edge of the bed, his head in his hands.

"You didn't know. Don't be sorry baby." He whispers, and you walk to your drawers to find something to sleep in. "I shouldn't have left after that argument. I'm sorry."

"Jon, you weren't in the right head space. It's okay." You tell him, peeling off your leggings, and bra to put on one of his shirts to sleep in.

"You still sleep in my shirt?" He asks, surprised.

"Uh, yeah." You say, looking down at your feet. You hear Jon stand up, and walk over to you. He tilts your chin up to look at him. His blue eyes so entrancing. "What?"

"You know I love you, right?" He asks you, and you feel your lip tremble at the words. "I always have, always will."

You shove your face into his chest, and he wraps his arms around you. "I wanted to tell you that night, but everything just went wrong."

"It's okay. I love you, too." You finally admit to him, and he squeezes you tight.

"You know one of the last things my mother told me was to get home, and make sure you knew that." He says with a choked laugh.

"I miss her. She always so kind to me. Complete opposite of you." You joke, and Jon pinches your hip causing you to laugh. "I missed you."

"I know Angel, I missed you, too." He whispers, kissing the top of your head. "I wanted to turn to alcohol so bad, but instead I drove to you."

"I'm proud of you." You tell him, and he squeezes you even tighter.

"Thank you baby." He tells you as you pull away from him. "I'm going to take a quick shower. Then I'll join you in bed, okay?"

"Sounds good." You tell him, and he places a kiss to your forehead before grabbing a pair of boxers, and going into the bathroom.

You lay there in the dark. The only light in the room coming from the TV. You feel the bed dip moments later, and soon enough Jon's arms are wrapped around you. "You're all I've got now." He whispers to you, ans you turn around in his arms.

"So, we're okay?" You ask him, and he nods. "Are you going to be okay?"

"In time, yes. Just don't leave me, please. I need you. So fuckin' bad." He begs you.

"You've got me, Mox." You whisper, and he nudges his nose with yours before placing his lips on yours. He kisses you slowly, and you can literally feel the emotion in it.

You will not be the one to pull away first. He needs you, and however that may be, you will give yourself to him. The kiss gets heavy quick, and he pulls your body closer to him.

His lips leave your mouth, and trail down your jaw to your throat. "Do what you need to do baby. I'm right here." You tell him when he hesitates to continue.

"Are you sure?" He asks you, and you nod. "I need you, badly."

"Go ahead baby." You tell him, and he kisses his way back up to your lips before hovering over you. He kisses down the other side of your neck, sucking and biting. "Fuck I've missed you."

"Yeah?" He asks as he grinds himself down onto you.

"Yeah." You breathe out, and he takes yoir nipple in his mouth. "My fingers don't satisfy me the way you do."

He looks into your eyes when you say that, his tongue swirling your nub. He pops off of it with a smirk. "Is that so?" He asks, and you nod. "Need me to fill you up baby?"

"Please." You groan, and he pulls down your panties along with his boxers. He drags himself up and down, tapping the head of his cock onto your clit. "Daddy, please."

He slowly pushes into you, stretching you open. "So tight." He groans, and continues to push himself into you. Your nails are already digging into his back. He slowly pulls back out, thrusting into you again. "You okay pretty girl?"

"I'm good." You tell him with a smile. His hands slide down your thighs, kneading into them as he rocks into you slowly. "Don't hold back on me. Use me."

He brings his thumb down to your clit, rubbing it slowly. Your body begins to shake, and he watches you like a hawk. "That's it baby." He groans, and bends himself down to press his lips to yours, his thumb not leaving your clit.

"J-jon." You moan into his mouth, and he begins to pick up the pace of his thrusts. He slides his arms underneath yours, holding your head. He bites down on your neck again, and you wrap your legs around his waist. "Feels so g-good."

"Daddy always know how to treat his girl. Doesn't he?" He asks you, and you nod at him. "You know better then that. Use your fuckin' words."

"Yes daddy." You choke out, and he smirks at you before thrusting into you harder. Your nails dragging down his back.

"Harder." He tells you, and you look into his eyes. "Make it hurt, please." He begs. You dig your nails deeper into his skin, and he groans, speeding up even more. "Fuck, I love you so much."

"I love you." You tell him, and he hikes one of your legs up on his shoulders to go even deeper. "Fuck."

"You like me being buried deep inside you, don't you? Missed it?" He asks you.

"So much." You answer him, and he brings his fingers back down to your clit, rubbing in fast tight circles. "I'm not going to last."

"Cum baby. All over me, please." He begs, and moves your leg back around his waist. "Look at me."

You open your eyes, and he kisses you slowly. "Show me how bad you've missed me." He mumbles against your lips, and he begins to hit that one specific spot. You start screaming out his name until your orgasm hits you like a ton of bricks.

"P-please cum inside me." You tell Jon who nods at you. His own pace slowing down until you feel his hot spurts of cum fill your insides. He moans your name and then collapses on top of you.

You both regain your breathing, and you place a kiss to the top of his forehead. "Thank you, Angel. I needed that. Needed you."

"I'm always here." You tell him, and he lifts his head up to press a kiss to your lips.

"Good. Let's get you cleaned up, baby." He says before carrying you to the bathroom.

Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows everywhere

Pairing: Spike x reader

Request: Bodyswap anon here! I appreciate you offering but you dont owe me one. Although I did have an idea that was an AU where reader runs a bakery and Spike runs an auto repair shop. I love the "grump is soft for the sunshine one" trope and just wanna see a slow burn of badboi Spike fawning over the shortie wearing bright colors that comes in with a flat tire during a downpour who isnt afraid of him in the slightest. If you like it, go for it! I just love cliches and tropes lol

Requested by: Anon - hope this is okay love 💖

You walked slowly into the seemingly deserted auto-repair shop. It smelled of oil and damp and you wondered if it was even still open for business. There were thick cobwebs in almost every corner and the lighting was only on where it was absolutely necessary. You looked around, blissfully uncaring of how badly things could go if the wrong sort of person worked there. You smiled around the place, your presence a ray of sunshine in the otherwise dull surroundings.

You had your brightest outfit on, dulled only by the flour you always managed to get everywhere on you throughout the day. You owned and almost solely ran a bakery not far from this shop. You stopped in the middle of the garage, looking around and not announcing yourself in case it startled the man bending over and tightening… or was that untightening something on an old looking car.

He paused his job, looking over at you. He took one look at you and rolled his eyes, turning away from you and pretending to be very busy. He had a pretty bad reputation around town, but everyone still went to his shop because he was good at his job.

You cleared your throat softly, maybe he just hadn’t seen you. You had a flat tire and it was late. The dark started to consume you slowly before he turned fully and stalked towards you.

 “You look lost” he said, closing the distance and looking you up and down menacingly as if you were unwelcome. Which, you were. He didn’t like being interrupted. He didn’t like people coming into his shop uninvited. He scowled, something that usually kept people away. But apparently, not you.

“No, I know where I am! I just need some help – I’ve got a flat” You said, a pleasant smile on your face as if you were oblivious to his threatening stance. He sighed, rubbing his hands on an old rag before gesturing at you to show him to your car. You basically skipped away and he followed behind.

 He just grunted when you got there, stepping around you and taking a look at the tire, which was undoubtedly flat. Like, pancake flat. You weren’t even sure how it had happened.

“Yeah, that’s a flat” he stated, looking up at you as if to ask what you expected him to do about it.

“Would you be able to fix it?” You smiled and he peered at you confused as to why you weren’t at least avoiding his eye contact out of fear or respect. 

“Yeah” he scoffed, rolling his eyes at such a stupid question.

“Oh great, that would be really nice!” You gushed, “You’re so kind, thank you!”

 He leaned over and you couldn’t help watch as he expertly changed the tire for you. You sat, trying to make conversation but he didn’t reply to anything that you said. Eventually, he finished up and you thanked him profusely.

“You’re really good at your job” You smiled, complimenting him softly. He looked taken aback, not entirely sure if you were actually making fun of him or not. He just grunted slightly in response so you decided to ask, “How much?”

“350. Flat rate” he shrugged after thinking a moment. You really were too sweet for your own good – in a way he decided to take advantage of. You were a fully grown adult, you knew the usual rate. You weren’t naïve, you were just incredibly kind.

“For one tire?!”

“Take it or leave it” He said, although he had already changed the tire for you so realistically you would have to pay it.

“Pastries!” “If you cut the act and charge me the proper rate you can have as many pastries as you like from my bakery when you come in as a thank you”

 “You own a bakery? Who are we kidding - of course you bloody do” He muttered, raising an eyebrow, “Ok, usual rate... and free pastry for the rest of my life”

“Rest of the month” you entertained his bargain.

“Year”

“You drive a hard bargain, sir!” You exclaimed, before grinning in a way that his expression definitely wasn’t matching, “I’ll see you soon!” you called, jumping into your car and speeding away with him staring after you.

Later that week, he took you up on your deal. You were behind the counter as he sauntered in, “Welcome to Angel Cake’s! It’s nice to see you again – this is my knight in shining armour from the other night!” you dropped your voice and explained to your employee. The young girl who came in on a Saturday to help out looked Spike up and down and raised an eyebrow. She hadn’t liked the sound of him – you were too friendly. Saw the good in people when from what you had explained, there didn’t seem to be any there. Spike had tried to take advantage of you.

“Right, yeah. Spike. Name’s Spike”

“I’m y/n!” You smiled, “Hey, your name doesn’t suit you much – you’re kinder than your name suggests!”

“I think the name’s about right” your co-worker Nina cut in, the younger girl not known for her tact. Spike scowled at her and turned back to you.

“I’m here for my pastry” he stated. No further niceties and no eye contact. He would insist he was trying to avoid being blinded by your colourful choice in outfit for today. You nodded and started busying yourself, choosing him one that you hoped he would enjoy. You put one in a bag and passed it over.

Your hands brushed against each other as you passed him the to-go bag. You shivered and he pulled away too quickly. He snatched the bag up and turned on his heel, stalking out of the door without so much as another word. He came back every two days or so to claim his pastry, sometimes lingering slightly but never saying anything more than which baked goods he would like.

The next two weeks went quickly and it had been really busy in your store. You noticed you hadn’t seen Spike so often – so you decided to do something about it.

“Bugger off – we’re closed” he growled, his back turned away from the door but he could hear footsteps entering. Your footsteps.

“Hey!” You called and he paused when he heard your voice. As if this would have been the only exception to his statement. That is, if he cared. Obviously.

“What do you want? I got business to be doing here, haven’t you got a rainbow you could be skipping over”

“Oh, I was just bringing you something – freshly prepared today! Uh, and you always seem so lonely working here so I thought maybe I could keep you company”

“I don’t get lonely. I like it this way” He insisted. This was a lie. He did feel lonely, some nights desperately so. He looked up at you and you gave him a small smile, a nod of understanding as you were ready to turn away. He thought about your nature slowly as you turned away. You didn’t put on an act, you genuinely felt for him. Cared to ask or swing by. So he made a decision. He opened his mouth before you left and said, “Uh, you can leave those” pointing at the box of donuts you had brought that you had lovingly prepared only moments before you drove over to his shop. He didn’t want you to stay, at least he wouldn’t admit it anyway. You nodded, placing them down and waving an enthusiastic goodbye. Pleased that he had at least taken your treats.

It was now a month later. He was working in his shop and he couldn’t stop thinking about you. His mind always turning back to you. Every waking thought, and the occasional dream too. He tried to shake himself out of it and continue working on a car.

But he couldn’t focus. He decided to have a break. He had been in several times for pastries since your first meeting, some he even paid for himself. He sat down, wiping his hands down his overalls. He grabbed at the pastry and started to bite into it.

He closed his eyes - it was just so good. It was sweet. Like you. Like heaven in his mouth. Your baking. He found himself filling his thoughts with you, often subconsciously but more recently it has been on purpose.

What were you doing? Did you ever think of him the way he thought of you? What would the bread of the day be today?

His eyes snapped open. It finally dawned on him. How he felt for you. He had been soft on you for a while now, he had just been fighting it – and for what? Oh, right. Because he couldn’t face the crippling rejection. Especially not from you. He had isolated himself on purpose after all, too used to the denial of his affections. To people in his past treating him as if he wasn’t worthy of love.

Still, he understood it now. He got it. He liked you – really liked you. And there was nothing he could do to fight it. He wanted to spend time with you. Your soft and kind nature became sweeter to him than the baked goods he loved so much. He didn’t want to be stuck, hiding in the dark anymore. He wanted to be surrounded by light. By your softness. Your bright, cheery smile. The array of dazzling colours that he had started to enjoy gazing upon the sunny tones. He decided he would have to do something about the way he felt.

So, he did. He tried at least. He stood outside having what must have been his second pack of cigarettes in the last hour. He was stood awkwardly outside your bakery chain smoking to gain enough courage to enter. Until, that is, the door opened and you popped your head out.

“Hey! Spike! Nina said you’ve been hovering by the door, trying to decide whether to come in or not for the last hour… are you okay?”

“That bitch-” he muttered under his breath, “Been worse, love. Um, h-how are you?”

“Oh I’m good thank you! I have some freshly baked bread I’d really love you to try! Come in!” You called, tugging at his sleeve slightly. His questioning you was new. He never usually asked. It excited you, but you knew better than to make a fuss over it. You wanted him comfortable after all.

He sat, eating the bread and telling you how good it was. He was almost gushing over your granary loaf and you couldn’t help but beam at him. He explained that it was by far the best bread he had ever eaten.

“Would you- did you want to-” big overexaggerated sigh with his entire body before carrying on, “Are you doing anything in your break?”

“I am now – would you like to go on a walk with me?” You asked.

You walked around the block, happily talking and encouraging him to chip in when he wanted to. You loved hearing from him. However, the heavens had opened and the rain had started to pour. You hadn’t expected this and weren’t dressed for the weather. You managed to hold a conversation and he proved himself correct with every step he took with you. He was falling for you.

“You’re, uh, shivering, love” he noted as he walked in-step beside you.

“I’m a little cold – rain can do that to you I suppose!” You grinned and he frowned ever so lightly. You said words but your mood never appeared to dip. It was as if you were his own personal sunshine, no matter what the outside world threw at you both.

He shrugged his jacket off and offered it to you, nodding his confirmation that he meant it. You smiled wide, not thinking and instead swooping in to hug him. An action that almost knocked him from his feet.

He just stood there. Still, not sure what to do. He found himself really enjoying your embrace, but he didn’t move his hands from his side. He wanted to, but he was embarrassed. What if you felt him hug back and laughed?

“Oops – sorry!” You realised you had been a little too enthusiastic with your hug. Some people don’t like hugs, you reprimanded yourself for a second, before looking back at Spike and beaming, “You want to help me bake this afternoon? Nina’s handling the front” as you shrugged his jacket around your shoulders.

“I, uh, should get back…” He offered, but his expression appeared to be in deep thought. He was conflicted. He really enjoyed your company, it appeared. But he would never agree to an afternoon of baking. He had insulted people for suggesting way less.

“Come on! You might enjoy it!” You couldn’t help but press. You really did want him there.

“Fine. But don’t be expecting it to become a regular thing… I’m just helpin’ you out seeing as you keep bangin’ on about it” he muttered, but secretly he was absolutely thrilled. He couldn’t help glancing at you every moment he felt he could get away with it as you both rounded the corner.

At the bakery, Nina rolled her eyes and scowled at Spike who stuck his two fingers up at her when your back was turned.

You started off reading the recipe, weighing up large quantities as you had a lot to bake. Spike took it surprisingly seriously. He hadn’t realised how much work went into making some of the items you sold. He would never take your pastries for granted again. He actually said this to you out loud, promising you. It made you giggle.

“I always struggle with this part” you say softly, trying to mix the large bowl of cake batter.

“Should I-?” He offered starting to roll up his sleeves and offering to take the duty over for you.

“Maybe we could try it together?” You smiled and he just nodded – in the name of helping you mix it better. Of course he would share the responsibility with you. You trusted him with it and standing that close to you would be a gift.

Usually, you might use an electric mixer. But you wanted to take it all back to basics. And perhaps, allow yourself to become a little closer with Spike. You both had a grip on the long wooden spoon and started to stir it together. He was stood behind you, but close enough for you to feel his presence. You both shared a small smile, without realising it as you watched the mixture become silky smooth.

You stumbled, not used to sharing a workspace and tipped the flour down what happened to be Spike’s front. You managed to pour flour down the front of the apron he had been wearing.

“I’m so sorry!” You said, trying to bite back a giggle.

“You’re going to be” He raised an eyebrow and took a handful of flour and threw it at you – making you squeal. This quickly descended into a flour fight that you decided had to be a draw as you were both covered. You were both laughing and you paused, savouring his smile. It was a real, genuine smile and it made you swoon.

You shared prolonged eye contact, holding your gaze through the flour that was still in the atmosphere around you. You shared another small smile before getting back to your respective tasks.

Eventually, you finished up and started to clear away as the cakes were now baking in the oven, “No way!” Nina exclaimed from the doorway. She was trying to hide her snort of laughter as she came to ask how long the next batch would take and she saw Spike crouching in front of the oven willing the cupcakes to rise through listing off a string of threats. Apparently, threatening them into it whilst he was wearing a baby pink cooking apron. You were crouched beside him, the oven gloves on in anticipation.

“Bugger off, short stack!”

“Nina, there’s a customer waiting” You said softly, giving her a look that said please let us have this. You had taken a shine to Spike. You were nice, but never this understanding with someone. You saw that he wanted to trust and share a connection. You hoped, with you. He just needed a little encouragement. Someone that cared without conditions.

When the cupcakes were finished, as you both sat eating the warm treats straight from the oven Spike had gone quiet. You were starting to worry, but your mood lightened once more when he spoke through a mouthful of cake, “Do you like spending time with me, pet?” he asked, not looking towards you.

“Of course I do!”

“Well then. I think it’s time we teach you how to change your own tire”

“You mean it!?” You cheered, smiling back at him. This was as close to a profession of fondness you would get from him. He had thawed, his temperament softening. But expressing his feelings was still hard. He nodded, offering his hand for you to take. You took it without hesitation and he moved your hand to his lips, kissing once softly. A gesture you would never have expected from him, but it made you melt. You walked towards his shop hand-in-hand, swinging his arm the entire way.

Anonimous said: Hi sweetheart, how are you? I hope you doing great. First of all, I’m a huge fan of you and I’m from Saudi Arabia I CAN’T STOP SMILING WHEN I READ A FANFICTION FOR U♥️. So if you don’t mind and the requests are open could we have something for Kai, Kaito, Kin, and Haru doing a pajama party cuz that is ANGEL B-day n she’s like these things? Sorry for my bad English. AGAIN THANK YOU BECAUSE YOU MADE MY DAY♥️

“You two want to do what again?” he sighed, one of his hands supporting his head with his elbow on his desk as his free one pinched his covered nose.

“A pj party!” Kin giggled as her older brother nodded at her, confirming to his father he also wanted the same thing.

“Why? You both know none your colleagues like to even step closer to the Hassaikai, is useless.” He gave an nonchantly look at Kaito when he facepalmed, mocking him surely the little brat, as Kin huffed and put her hands on her waist with a frown, reminding him very much of you.

Damn those brats took after both of you very well

“Dad..” Kaito groaned before pointing at the door with both arms “Is for mom’s birthday! She loves those things!” The boy exclaimed as he deadpanned.

“Don’t tell us you forgot!” Kin spoke with a cold tone of voice while glaring at him with a pout, matching gold orbs staring back at his own.

“I haven't.” he sighed, getting up from his chair and leavuing his office, his son and daughter following him like baby ducks, causing to a nearby precept to chuckle at the scene before yelping when he saw the death glare Chisaki gave to him over his shoulders. 

“Then you letting us do it then?” The nine year’s old boy asked, face same as his father but on his (E/c) coul be noticed a tinge of hope and happiness.

“Your mother is how many years older than you both again? The answer is no.” He said in sarcasm as he walked before sighing when his three year’s old daughter got on his front and sucefully stoped him on walking “What?”

“Papa pleasee??” she got her tiny and chubby hands interlocked together while doing the puppy eyes up at him “You can help us and say is a gift you also gave!”

“Absolutely not-” He growled and rolled his eyes up when she started to sniffle, then to help even more he felt a tug on his jacket, and when looking down he saw Kaito with a pout and the same look Kin carried.

Those brats knew it how to get to him, dammit it was the same look his wife gave it to him all the time and fucking succeded it. He had to remember to have a long, LONG chat with you later for this attitude of the kids.

“Do whatever you two want without messes. And your mother better like it.” he watched his son and daughter’s face lighten up and shout their thanks at him while running to whatever they were planning “NO running inside the house you brats!”

Just listening to his son and daughter’s gigglesgave a simple smile to the usual cold man as he shook his head and started to walk again only to be met with his wife, entering the house along with Chrono after she went out.

“Kai!” he watched you put the bags carefully on the ground to walk towards him witha bright smile, also noticing the quick greeting Hari gave to him before his daughter jumped and lauched on his leg with giggles.

“I see you wiped off the money I had on my credit card.” he said nonchantly as you giggled, letting him, one more time on that day, smile and touch your cheek with his gloved hand to carres it.

“Says the man whose not even once stop buying things. Hell Kai, not even me or the kids can’t look at something and yoy’re already grabbing and paying for it.”

“Is for a different reason, and with those brats I agree I have to come to a stop before they become spoiled pests.”

He was walking on the halls, finishing reading some of his paperwork until he heard some giggles, catching a bit of a blanket little thief run and enter one room of the house.

Cringing at the thought of that blanket slidding and catching all the dirt on the floor, he sighed before going after and opening the door.

"You brats better not make a mess of this-" he stopped abruptly when he saw the state the room was in... full of pillows, lanterns, blankets forts which btw he learned what it was from you.

It even had the freacking coffe table from the living room full of snacks.

"So one of you stole the table huh little rats?" He asked nonchantly as Kin poked her head out of the blankets and kaito looked at him over his shoulder.

"Hah?" The boy said monotonously before accidentaly using his quirk on a pillow. Causing to explode and the room be filled with feathers.

"That makes a great decoration Kaito-kun!" He arched one of his eyebrows at seing Chrono's daughter inside one of the first, putting on some Christmas golden lights inside of it.

"Haru." He nodded towards teh girl whose shyly gretted back and returned to her going "Ordered someone to help make your work? Kaito?"

"No way!" The boy exclaimed before getting up "Me and Kin invited her as well!"

"Yeah! Kaito has a bitty wittyy crushy on Haru-chan!" Kin singed while twirling the blanket on her fingers as Kaito gagged but soon scoffed, crossing his arms much like he would do.

Damn Kaito took after him shit-

"As long as none of you cause a mess that is not my problem." He sighed, turning his back at the kids and waving at them over his shoulder "Try to not destroy the house while I'm not looking."

"We wont!" Kaito huffer before picking the shattered pillow before frowning "uh... daddy?"

"What now..?" He grimaced before looking at the shy kid whose begrudily showed the torn out pillow on both his hands.

"Help..? I still cant control it that well..." the boy said in shame and he soften his eyes at the much familiar dark brow hair son of his.

"Give it here." He sighed while crouching down and grabbing his son's hands while one of his free one had on the pillow "Concentrate on what form you want it, and how the pillow was before you used your quirk on it."

It was quiet until he saw the two girls looking in interest as he deadpanned.

"Isn't the surprise suppose to be ready until my wife comes here?"

"Right!" Haru yelped and grabbed the rest of the lights. He noticed the anticipation of his son to also help so instead he used his own quirk to put it back together.

"Huh?" Kaito noticed before being patted on the head.

"Go on. We can have lessons all the time, but your mother's birthday is only one time at the year so." He commented nonchantly as (E/c) eyes widened and shined as a little but bright smile appeared on the boy's face as he let out a happy giggle when Kai got up.

"Thank you daddy!" The boy said cheerfully before joining the girls and helping them with the lights since he was the tallest out of the three.

His gaze remained on them for a little before scoffing and going back to his work.

When he had became so... soft over two brats and one kid that wasn't even his own?

He grimaced and shaked his head to rid his head of this thoughts and returned to his office.

.

.

.

"I'm so tired..." you sighed while taking your heels off aa Kai stared at you.

"Dinner wasn't of your liking?"

"No no, it was amazing but you spared too much money as always." You giggled while hitting your head on his chest as he carresed with his gloved hand your hair.

Usually after a dinner, especially on your birthday he would... take you to the bedroom and... well, you know.

Ut just when he was about to kiss your neck after pulling his mask down he remember immediately the work his kids and Haru had done. Grimacing, he had to be strong to push his selfishness and lost aside to cup your cheeks to leave one passionate kiss. Enough for him to leave your head quite dizzy.

"Woah.." you whispered as he smirked, pecking your forehead as you pouted "Not going to continue what you started handsome?"

"Sadly, it seems like you have plans already." He sighed while walking and montioning for him to follow you.

"Huh? I don't have any? Or do I?" You followed him as he gave three knowns with the back of his fingers on a door.

"The brats have you for the night." Was the only thing he could muster before your son and daughter threw themselfs at you as Haru laughed but from some safe distance before going to you; on the ground by the way, your kids werent gentle; and giving a cheerful happy birthday along with the Chisaki twins and a hug.

"Woah!" You giggled before sitting up, Kin, giggling, and Kaito, smirking, on your lap "So that was the surprise you two hinted earlier?"

"We were actually scared that papa was going to tell you!" Kin exclaimed while climbing off from your lap and grabbing your hand.

"Yeah since he always fights with us to get you." Kaito mumbled before helping you up, smirking at the glare Kai had on him.

Little sh-

"So I-Oh my god you three did that?!" You exclaimed when you saw the room decorated as Kin nodded fervently before Kaito begrudilly pointed at Haru.

"Haru did most of the decorations..." the girl laughed before smilling up at you.

"I dont even know what to say kids.." you said with a smile as he sighed.

"I will let you four be for now. Anything just go to my office." He ignored your asking if he wasn't going to stay because he knew what was going to happen.

He didn't wanted Kaito or Kin to comment why he was hiding a toy on the middle of his pants.

He crossed paths with chrono, whose seemed torned out with something.

"Kai thank god." The male sighed before looking around "Have you seen Haru? I couldn't find her all day."

"She hadn't told you she was going to spend the night with my own pests and my wife? They literally stole her from the night." He commented nonchantly as Kurono face palmed.

"I forgot about that." He growled as Kai shook his head.
