Mark of the Rani is such an episode. The Master is following the Rani around like a lost puppy the whole time. Him and the Doctor are doing their usual thing and the Rani is completely done with their bullshit. And they both keep bringing up how she is a genius whenever they can

Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป I've been binge reading your stories lately and I love them all! I have a request if you're up for it. Could you write one where shy!reader doesn't like her laugh because some people think it's annoying but Eddie loves it? Totally not self-projecting by the way! ๐Ÿ™ƒ Thank you!
thank you angel! please enjoy :D โ€” eddie comforts you when he finds out an old boyfriend made you hate your laugh (shy!fem!r, established relationship, hurt/comfort, 1k)
You and Eddie sit on opposite sides of the worn, sunken-in couch โ€” long legs bent at the knees, socked feet wedged neatly beneath your thighs. Your bare calves rest on either side of his lap while his calloused palms rub up and down the length of them. His touch is largely absentminded as he tries hopelessly not to laugh through the punchline of his own joke.
โ€œโ€”And I was like, โ€˜Boom. You lookinโ€™ for this?โ€™โ€
You think the brown-eyed look of expectancy he gives you is funnier than anything. You smile wide, hiding the sparkling expression behind your palm.
Eddie meets your beam with a boyish pout. He repeats the punchline, more serious this time. โ€œAnd I was like, โ€˜Boomโ€™โ€”โ€
โ€œI heard you, Eds,โ€ you assure with a small chuckle. A mere breath of a laugh.
His frown deepens. โ€œOh, cโ€™mon!โ€ he exclaims, lifting his hands in protest. They drop back to your ankles a second later. โ€œThat was funny! That always kills with Hellfire!โ€
You nod rapidly, brows raised and eyes wide, like a parent comforting a child. โ€œIt was good,โ€ you assure quickly.
โ€œThen why arenโ€™t you laughing?โ€
โ€œSo, whatโ€” I have to laugh if I think somethingโ€™s funny?โ€
โ€œWell, thatโ€™s usually how it works, yeah,โ€ Eddie monotones with a flat face, nodding until his wild curls sway around his jaw. He shrugs lazily a second later and jokes, โ€œIf youโ€™re not a psychopath, at leastโ€ฆ Youโ€™re not a serial killer, are you?โ€
You meet his narrowed eyes with a more pensive gaze. Your lips purse to the side of your mouth as you jokingly ponder the silly question. โ€œNo,โ€ you answer after a few long moments. โ€œNot yet, anyway.โ€
Eddie nods like heโ€™s relieved. โ€œNice.โ€
โ€œThereโ€™s still time, though,โ€ you add with a scrunched nose.
He scrunches the bridge of his back. โ€œIโ€™ll take that risk,โ€ he says with a small huff before lifting his weight on his knuckles. The old couch creaks in protest as he leans over to kiss you.ย 
With a poorly bitten-back grin, you meet him halfway. Your mouths smack together in a fleeting kiss that tastes faintly of frozen pizza.
You settle back on the arm of the couch with Eddieโ€™s socked toes wriggling under your thighs. His thumbs continue tracing shapes on the insides of your calves. He watches you watch the staticky television screen, too wound up about the whole thing to join in on the stupid sitcom.
The subtly overwhelming feeling bubbles in his throat until it spills like vomit from his mouth. โ€œDo you think Iโ€™m not funny or something?โ€ he blurts, then goes all shy right after. โ€œIs that whyโ€ฆ Is that why you donโ€™t really laugh at my jokes?โ€
Your breathy scoff only further proves his point. โ€œI laugh at your jokes all the time, Eds.โ€
He shrugs, unconvinced. โ€œI meanโ€ฆ I guess. You, like, breathe really hard through your nose or whatever, but you donโ€™tโ€ฆ You donโ€™t laugh.โ€
โ€œI think if you heard me laugh, youโ€™d break up with me,โ€ you joke and donโ€™t think twice about how self-deprecating it is.
Eddieโ€™s face twists at the thought โ€” that heโ€™d ever want to break up with you, or that thereโ€™d be a part of you he wouldnโ€™t automatically adore on instinct. โ€œWhy would you say that?โ€ย 
You shrug with a vague I donโ€™t know type of sound and turn back to the television. โ€œMy laugh is just weird, I guess....โ€
โ€œNo oneโ€™s laugh is weird!โ€ Eddie insists. โ€œItโ€™s, like, the one sound people make when theyโ€™re happiestโ€” It canโ€™t be weird.โ€
You flash him a deadpan look of silent disagreement.
He caves.
โ€œOkay. Fine. Dustin Hendersonโ€™s laugh is weird,โ€ he concludes. โ€œButโ€ฆ thatโ€™s just because heโ€™s Dustin, you know?โ€
You breathe a faint chuckle at that. Almost like youโ€™ve trained yourself to be as quiet in your laughter as you can.ย 
โ€œMy last boyfriend thought my laugh was annoying,โ€ you confess like itโ€™s no big deal. โ€œSo eventually I just kindaโ€ฆ stopped.โ€
Eddieโ€™s soft features harden into a solemn frown. โ€œWhat a fucking prickโ€ฆโ€ he grumbles like a storm cloud.
โ€œItโ€™s okay. I got over it. Mostly.โ€
He squeezes the backs of your calves with a pair of ringed hands, a warm and reassuring touch. โ€œWell, I donโ€™t think anything you do could annoy me,โ€ Eddie tells you, tilting his head to the side until his wild curls bunch at his shoulders. โ€œJust so weโ€™re clear.โ€
Something in your chest flutters โ€” like thereโ€™s a thousand moths trapped behind your ribcage. โ€œGood to know,โ€ you tease in the same sardonic tone.
Eddie rises suddenly, tugging at your ankles until youโ€™re lying flatter on the couch. A squeal sound in your throat as you watch him rise to his knees and lean over you. He digs his fingers gently into the plush of your sides before you can blink.ย 
โ€œGet off!โ€ you swat at him, laughing loudly at the tickling sensation before you can help it. The golden sound spills from your lips and fills the dim trailer with so many little sunbeams.ย 
Your face heats at the proud, lopsided smile Eddie gives you.
โ€œGet off,โ€ you repeat, sterner now but still mostly playful. Youโ€™re only slightly surprised when Eddie obeys without pouting. You sit up a bit more and tug your shirt down from where it had ridden up. โ€œAnd stop looking at me like that.โ€
Eddie fights to purse his beam to the side of his mouth. Your sparkling, unsmiling disposition is impossible not to smile at. โ€œCanโ€™t help it,โ€ the boy shrugs with a stupid grin. โ€œYouโ€™re too cute.โ€
Your face scrunches in disdain of his compliment. You prop your back against the couch and cross your arms over your chest, averting your gaze to the TV once more. โ€œJust drive me home,โ€ you grumble in protest, hardly meaning it.
โ€œNo can do, sweet thing,โ€ Eddie says with a sympathetic sigh, dropping a heavy arm around your shoulder to pull you into his chest. You melt begrudgingly into his sloppy embrace. He presses a kiss to your hair and mumbles into your temple. โ€œโ€˜M never letting you go, actually.โ€
And, despite your very obvious pouting, you pray he never breaks his promise.

NSFW // KNY characters that are serial humpers. There's nothing they won't rub themselves on for just a small chance to get off.
CW: GN Reader/ Both Genitals reffered to/ specific CW will be before each character so you can peruse as you see fit.
Tumblr media
Karaku
Object Of choice : Anything and Everything.
CW: Genital Mutilation (he gets curious, no scene), Dub-con/Non-con, Somnophilia.
-While I think all of the Clones have a bit of a problem keeping it to themselves, I think Karaku, being, you know, the pleasure clone, is most certainly a cum chaser.
-He can barely keep his hand out of his pants in public, all but physically refuses to hide his boners, and, worst of all, you can't keep underwear in one piece, on, or even around.
-This man is disgusting. The only difference between him and the others is that he's unabashed about it. You'd think the honesty would help, but it just doesn't. Not after he's torn through your last set of undergarments and now what?
-'So what? I don't wear anything- eh? What do you mean it's digusting?!'
-He's so proud about it too, it's almost disheartening.
-Is not gentle with his dick. It can just regrow, I'm sure he's done- awful things to it.
-I think that pleasure thing comes at a cost. It's a signifier of Hantengu's lack of impulse control. Karaku probably can't stop himself, even if he wants to, which he never would because lusting is his only purpose.
-Everything is made to read as innately sexual to him- doesn't matter if it's your fist or a cheese grater- He's experimental with his nerves to a self destructive degree.
-'I didn't intend to cut it off- no! I saw a photo of a man that flayed it o- Hey! It's not that bad! Just liste- It'll fix itself soon!'
-I don't know what else He'd do other than jack off, or try and convince the other clones to jack off. I don't think he has- hobbies?
-Definitely tries to hump you in your sleep. If you don't wake up to him jerking off, you're waking up to him trying to slip between your thighs.
-'I just got horny- no no- just go back t- hey, no, you're not allowed to leave? Come back! Y/N!'
Tumblr media
Aizetsu
Object of Choice : Your thigh
CW: Severe Depression / BDSM Dynamics (Severe degradation, both self and inflicted) (Aizetsu receiving)
-What a miserable fuck, he doesn't know what to do with himself half the time, so when he gets horny he just cries and begs.
-He's a manifestation of every awful thought Hantengu ever had in that big ol' head of his. Aizetsu just drips with the most gut wrenching, vomit inducing level of self-hatred you've ever seen anytime you're intimate.
-you begin to wonder if being talked down to appeals to him more than he'd like to admit.
-He's like a dog when he asks, because, at the end of the day, he's still Hantengu, a selfish bastard who self serves. Aizetsu just doesn't have the joy receptors for it- his nerves jump at the bud for any impulse they can fufill.
-When you let him ride your thigh, because he's pathetic, and he looked so... him asking, it became his favourite thing. Ever.
-When you two are alone, he'll just beg for it out loud. He has no self respect. So much shame that he'll never conquer.
-'Please, please- Y/N- I- I'll do whatever you want me to. You're the only person I can do this with, they'll all- laugh at me- please please- I'm sorry, I know, I'm- God I'm worthless- I can't do anything in return, nothing will be good enough-'
-he's practically jerking himself off on your calve as he spews his self hate. You might as well give in.
-When you're infront of the other clones, he'll tug at the edge of whatever you're wearing. They all toss him hauty looks. They're disgusted by him, too. He likes humping your thigh more than his dignity infront of his fellow cluster, I guess.
-Maybe he's... a bit of a.... a lot of a masochist. You stare at him like he's dirt, there. He's a grown man humping your thigh- drool spilling out of his mouth.
-'I'm- I'm sorry I- oh god- please don't hate me- please don't hate me- please please-'
-'You're pathetic. You can't make me cum, but you have no problem mak- did you just cum again? Are you cumming right now? In your pants?... Are you serious?'
-You could easily have him wailing in minutes, maybe even seconds if you hit the right nerve. And the whole time he'll just be thrusting away, chasing his own pleasure against your skin because that's all he knows how to do.
-Push him off right as he's cumming and ruin his orgasm, he doesn't deserve to feel good (The abuse will just make him cum harder)
Tumblr media
Kaigaku
Object Of Choice: You.
CW: Mention of Trad Wives
-Listen, I know we have a lot of Kaigaku haters in the crowd. I, however, see a man with a choker, and I see a potential slut. Give him his moment.
-I think Kaigaku would be a very selfish lover, obviously, but I don't think this is in natural capacity for him. I think he's like, brainwashed by societies standards of what attracts him, especially in a relationship.
-You know when you see a 'sigma' guy that's really upset his trad wife who he specifically picked out for being trad won't do anal? That's Kaigaku.
-So he's really, really upset when you won't put out.
-You see a chance, though. A chance for a life lesson.
-Kaigaku is allowed to fuck you... just not really fuck you. He's allowed to use your hand. He's allowed to use your thighs. He can rut in between your pussy lips/ up and down your shaft-
-He is not allowed in you. And it lights him up.
-'Thats a stupid rule! You think I'm not enough? Are you fucking someone else? Are you making fun of me?!' He'd probably try to insight a screaming match for a week, but you just won't give in-
-Fine. Whatever. He just won't touch you, won't talk to you- won't-
-The first time Kaigaku slides in between your thighs, he swears he sees stars. It'd been weeks... probably the longest he's ever held off on an impulse. Hadn't jerked off either, He'd been too pissed.
-Its there, in that little space between your sex and the top of your thighs, that Kaigaku finds God. At least he thinks it's god. It's got to be. He's never cum so hard in his life.
-Kaigaku becomes almost... willingly obedient. He continues to pretend he's so inconvenienced by the whole thing, but then he's sliding into your fist, and the world is just sliding away.
-I have a very specific image of standing infront of him, and him trying to angle his dick to slide in your underwear. He's really awkward, and he's struggling to stay upright because he's got to bend his knees to meet your cunt/cock- and it's just not working, but that's the only way you'd let him get off on you that day-
-It like, kind of gives me the ick thinking about him doing it, but also like- Aw? He'll literally do anything to get off now? You broke him?
-'I can't- it- it's too hard-' He'd mumble, voice sounding particularly defeated. 'I just- I want to cum-'
-'Too bad.' You'd go to walk away, and He'd jerk off on the floor, pissed as hell. He wouldn't be able to cum and that'd just make him angrier, because now he has to go beg his partner, who he's whipped for, to please let him use their pussy/dick again-
-He's like, never been this needy before, though. He's not supposed to want to chase you. He's supposed to have people throwing themselves at him- It's kind of... exciting, to be denied.
-You know, guys that whimper are really cool, but idk, I think Kaigaku's a whiner. I think he whines and groans and it's really unsightly but??? There's something so appealing about it? Like, he's so big and strong and his ego is so inflated, and he's just toppling for you?
Tumblr media
Enmu
Object of Choice : Your pillow
CW: Enmu / Crossing of explicit sexual boundaries.
-Listen, he's not right in the head. Enmu never claimed to be right in the head, either, but he's particularly fond of cumming on your pillow. Not just humping it, cumming on it. He doesn't really know why either.
-'It just feels right, I think.' He'd reason.
-'Do you want to- cum in my hair? On my face-'
'No, I want to cum on your pillow. It's where you sleep.' Thats the only explanation you get from him. He cannot articulate anymore.
-He doesn't even think about it when he's doing it. He's just got one leg hiked up on the bed, a thumb pressing the head of his cock into the plush, and he's just thrusting- almost blind.
-He doesn't ever remember the build up to getting there, or what in his brain is satisfied by doing this, but if he doesn't do it, something... off will happen, he's sure.
-You catch him, one day. You thought he was just cumming on it- no, he's got his full weight in his pelvis, pitching his hips forward with all his might. You didn't even know Enmu could physically do such a thing.
-He's not weak, obviously. He's a demon, but you all rarely have sex where he's the one leading, so it's a bit of a shock to watch him be so... rough with the fabric.
-He's almost in a trance, it's kind of scary, until he cums, and he covers his mouth with both hands, and his hole body shakes. The fucker knows he has to keep this silent...
-Maybe you're...Maybe you're not right in the head either, because you really, really want to be that pillow.
This might have a part 2, because i think Mitsuri would be prone to this.

Gorgeous Girl
Tumblr media
Aaron Hotchner x reader warnings: teasing, alcohol consumption smut, heavy petting, make outs, nothing too kinky this time lol.
For once, being out of town for work wasnโ€™t because you were chasing down some deranged serial killer in a distant state resulting in far too little sleep, far too much shitty coffee and coming home more exhausted than you left. While this week was technically still work, there was far less of it, a week of conferences, an hour or two of speaking and you could dodge all the rest out at a luxury sky resort in Breckenridge, Colorado. Two agents from the BAU were required to attend and you and Emily had pulled the โ€˜shortโ€™ straws (depending how you looked at it, of course). Some members of the team thought a week like that would be absolute torture, others thought it would just be too boring, or that having to socialize with that many other agents while representing the BAU was a walking nightmare. To you, the only disadvantage was that you werenโ€™t taking the jet, the remainder of the team needed it, youโ€™d be flying commercial.
You and Emily, however, were more than well prepared to have a girlโ€™s week together off in the mountains, escaping into the small town to see what kind of fun you could find. Youโ€™d even splurged, using a bit of your own money to get a larger suite, one with a hot tub on the private balcony overlooking the mountains. One that you planned on drinking bottles of wine together in while gossiping and trash talking.
Which is why you were so surprised when you rounded the corner to your gate.
โ€œHotch?โ€ You froze on the spot, confusion taking over your face at the sight of your Unit Chief standing in front of you. โ€œWhereโ€™s Em? God, does Strauss think we need a babysitter or something?โ€
โ€œNo.โ€ He chuckled at your instant annoyance, โ€œPrentiss got specially requested for a case in New York.โ€
โ€œWho has the power to pull that?โ€
โ€œHer mother.โ€
โ€œUgh.โ€ You huffed, crossing your arms over your chest. The surprise was wearing off and you suddenly shifted uncomfortably, pulling your blazer tighter around you, feeling Hotchโ€™s eyes on you.
It wasnโ€™t that the man made you feel uncomfortable, no it certainly wasnโ€™t that. It was that he made you feel absolutely flustered. Nights when you laid alone in your empty bed unable to sleep and your hands danced their way down your body, it was him that you were thinking of, pretending they were his fingers touching you, stretching you out. That it wasnโ€™t a silicone toy but his cock filling you so perfectly while he husked dirty words into your ear. As a result, you generally kept your head down around him, did your work and went about your life. He wasnโ€™t totally sure that if it was that you just didnโ€™t like him, if there was some underlying issue you had with men in power, or if it was simply that you were attempting to respect his authority.
โ€œSorry,โ€ he suddenly spoke, โ€œfor ruining whatever plans you and Prentiss had. I know the two of you are close.โ€
โ€œMmhmm.โ€ You nodded, staring out the airport window โ€œsโ€™okay.โ€
โ€œWhen we get there Iโ€™ll see about upgrading, try and get adjoining rooms or something.โ€
โ€œAlready did that.โ€ Your eyes flicked back to him briefly, โ€œgot one of the larger two bedroom suites that close off with like, French doors or whatever. We were planning on,โ€ your cheeks flushed suddenly, realizing you were about to admit to your boss that you were going to play hooky, โ€œtakingโ€ฆadvantage of as many amenities as we could.โ€
โ€œHmm.โ€ He chuckled, watching the way you quickly looked away so you could watch the planes drive around on the tarmac, basically refusing to look at him, โ€œIโ€™m sure that was all Prentissโ€™ plan.โ€ That earned a huff of a laugh from you but you still didnโ€™t dare look him in the eye, โ€œdo you have any idea how many of these things Iโ€™ve been to over the years? Guess how many times Iโ€™ve ditched out on them.โ€ He smiled softly when your eyes flicked back to him, โ€œplaces like this always have the best scotch, and the bonus is that itโ€™s free.โ€
You swore he winked at you, a grin on his face that sent tingles shooting through your body and you were incredibly thankful when they suddenly announced boarding. At the very least, you and Emily had also upgraded to business class, you wouldnโ€™t have to worry about minimal personal space for the flight, thereโ€™d be a barrier between you and Hotch. While you were distracted with your phone, heโ€™d managed to disappear and you werenโ€™t entirely sure where to, but you took the opportunity to open your text messages.
โ€˜I cannot believe you.โ€™
โ€˜Oh come on, like Iโ€™m happy about this either. A week with my mother?! Whoโ€™d they end up sending?โ€™
โ€˜Hotchโ€ฆโ€™
You didnโ€™t have to imagine Emilyโ€™s laughter, you could practically feel it through the phone as the three little dots popped up, disappeared and then popped up again. She, of course, was the only one who knew about your crush on Hotchner, sheโ€™d been planning on teasing you about it all week, hoping that maybe youโ€™d find some other brooding FBI agent to get under while out of town.
โ€˜Maybe thatโ€™ll work out for you. You can enjoy the view and the hot tub with him, have a nice romantic weekend.โ€™
โ€˜I fucking hate you.โ€™
*
The first two days of the conference were fine, you stayed out of Aaronโ€™s way, went to the presentations you were speaking at and did the required amount of socializing. You found that he was usually gone before you in the mornings, but there was always fresh coffee in the pot waiting for you. He made sure to respect your space as much as he could, if he swung by the suite to change in the afternoon and you were there he wouldnโ€™t linger, and heโ€™d make sure to change in the bathroom.
Day three was a little more on the tedious side, sitting through a lecture you would have rather slept through, one that was meant more for younger agents but theyโ€™d asked someone from the BAU to sit in and help with the question period. You ran into Hotch at lunch and he inquired about your plans for the rest of the day now that the mandatory attendance parts were done, asking if maybe you wanted to explore the mountain town, maybe grab some dinner outside of the resort. You laughed awkwardly, praying your cheeks werenโ€™t as hot as they felt and politely declined, he shrugged, teasing that you would be missing out, but to enjoy your night in. You were incredibly glad he wandered off after that, the butterflies in your stomach nearly too much to handle as you got accustomed to the more casual version of your boss.
Dinner was spent with an old friend from the academy, laughing as you caught up over multiple courses and a bottle of wine. You said an early goodnight to them, making your way back to your suite, happy to find it empty and your eyes drifted through the balcony window, lingering on the hot tub. Figuring there was no better time but the present you quickly stripped, changing into your bikini before swiping a bottle of wine from the fridge and a spare wine glass.
*
Aaron also ended up running into a couple of old friends while out in the town, friends who had worked this conference in the past and knew exactly where to go for the best meals and fanciest scotch. Free from the responsibility of running a team he had stated to loosen up on this work vacation, a little rougher around the edges, inhibitions lowered and that all remained when he returned to the hotel room. Toeing out of his shoes he hung up his coat before starting to unbutton his shirt as he moved through the room, wondering what was stashed in the bar that he could indulge into now, potentially coerce you into a drink with him at the very least.
He could hear music echoing from the balcony and his gaze got pulled out there where he caught sight of the steam rising from the hot tub into the cool night air. His eyes lingered on you, nestled in the corner of the tub you were fully settled into the padded seat, arms extended across the backs of it, your head titled back with your eyes closed as you relaxed, hair pulled up to the top of your head to keep it dry. He could see the shimmer of water and sweat on your skin and he instantly wanted to lick up the exposed column of your neck. His tongue darted out to wet his lips as his eyes sunk lower, not missing the curve of your chest just visible above the water, hot pink fabric clinging to your skin. You were at a complete level of peace that heโ€™d never seen before and he couldnโ€™t help but want to see more of it, want to explore how far he could push your boundaries and began to wonder just how professional he had to remain on this retreat.
Though of course, that had technically been his idea from the start.
As soon as Ambassador Prentiss called, Emily was groaning about how much of a waste it was that she was missing the conference. It only took a raised brow from him to get her to admit the plan was to ditch as much as the two of you could, that youโ€™d splurged for the all inclusive package and a very private balcony and jacuzzi. He wasnโ€™t assigned to take her place, and he didnโ€™t jump at the offer to make it not so obvious, but no one else knew about the extra perks so he simply looked like he was taking one for the team.
Figuring it was now or never he retreated to his side of the suite, changing into his trunks before swiping a bottle of scotch and a glass.
You were more relaxed than you had been in ages, warm water bubbling around your body as the wine sunk into your system. The music soothed through you, pulling you further from reality and honestly, it was pretty nice to not be chasing after some psychopath right now, even if you were still kinda surrounded by talks of crime. You were almost considering calling Emily, checking in on how things were going with the team, updating her on how things were going here, no doubt sheโ€™d have mountains of questions and teasing about you sharing a suite with Hotch.
And that was exactly how and why you didnโ€™t hear him come out onto the terrace.
โ€œThink you can warm me up?โ€
His deep voice shook through the night air and you jumped, water splashing around you as your heart nearly burst through your chest while your eyes flew open.
โ€œJesus fucking Christ!โ€ You swore, chest heaving as you finally took him in, trying not to gulp at his bare chest, โ€œI didnโ€™t hear you come in.โ€
โ€œSorry.โ€ He chuckled, ducking his gaze for a moment, watching the way you sunk further under the water to avoid his lingering eyes, โ€œyou mind if I join? Or I can come back later.โ€ He lifted the bottle of liquor in his hand, โ€œjust thought maybe we could have a drink.โ€
โ€œOh, uh, yeah.โ€ You shook your head, โ€œthatโ€™s fine, come on in.โ€ You shifted further into the corner of the tub, turning your back while Hotch got into the water, wiping your hands on the towel to check your phone, unsurprised to have a couple of messages from Em. Once the water settled, you refilled your wine glass, turning back to face him as you sunk into the seat again.
โ€œThis is nice.โ€ He murmured softly, letting out a relaxed sigh before pouring out a drink, โ€œyou and Prentiss really have a hack for these conferences.โ€
โ€œMmmhmm.โ€ You replied over the brim of your glass, taking a hefty swig.
โ€œYou get up to anything fun tonight?โ€
โ€œRan into a friend. Had dinner at the steakhouse downstairs.โ€
Hotch frowned lightly, he didnโ€™t miss the way youโ€™d tensed up a little bit once youโ€™d realized he was there, once he was in such close proximity and under the water with you. โ€œAre you sure you donโ€™t want me to come back later? I donโ€™t want to make you uncomfortable.โ€
โ€œNo!โ€ You practically yelped, grimacing at how quick you were to keep him there, โ€œIโ€™m fine. Totally fine, promise. I justโ€ฆ youโ€™reโ€ฆ my boss.โ€ Your gaze was redirected into your wine glass, โ€œnever really seen you in anything other than a suit and nowโ€ฆโ€ You blindly gestured in his direction and then to yourself with a little laugh, โ€œand I donโ€™t think a pink bikini is exactly business casual and itโ€™s not exactly my classiest oneโ€ฆ thought Em would be the only one seeing it.โ€ You muttered and then let out a little gasp, suddenly glancing up, โ€œnot that I brought it so she could see it! Weโ€™re notโ€ฆ thatโ€™sโ€ฆ noโ€ฆ weโ€™re friends, I donโ€™t swing that way.โ€
This time Aaron laughed, taking a sip of his drink, โ€œitโ€™s fine. You need to relax, alright?โ€ He raised his drink out to you and you timidly clinked your glass with his. โ€œEnjoy this while you can.โ€ He gestured to the view, the night sky painting the mountains in gorgeous colours, โ€œbesides,โ€ he smirked across at you, โ€œIโ€™ve seen you undercover and a few of those outfits leave very little to the imagination.โ€
You glanced up to him, noticing the flush in his cheeks, the smirk on his lips before he took another swig of his drink. There was a gleam in his eye that you hadnโ€™t seen before that you didnโ€™t exactly recognize and if youโ€™d known any better, you wouldโ€™ve said he was flirting with you.
โ€œAreโ€ฆ are you drunk?โ€ You suddenly asked, nearly regretting it the moment youโ€™d said it and he laughed again, a sight and sound that made your insides weak.
โ€œI think I legally shouldnโ€™t drive anywhere, but Iโ€™m still completely in control of myself.โ€ He nodded toward the half empty bottle on your side of the jacuzzi, โ€œare you alright?โ€
โ€œIโ€™m so sorry sir.โ€ You blushed, ducking your eyes again, โ€œthat was inappropriate. And yeah, Iโ€™m totally fine, big lunch, big dinner, high tolerance.โ€
โ€œDonโ€™t worry about it.โ€ His smile softened, โ€œand you can drop the sir, we donโ€™t need to keep up that professionalism right now.โ€
โ€œOh..โ€ You sank deeper under the water, taking another sip of your drink. Part of you wanted to disappear while the other part of you wanted to complain you were overheating, pull yourself up onto the ledge of the tub and flaunt your half naked body. The desire to throw yourself at him was only a few glasses of wine away and you knew it. Instead, the two of you sunk into a semi comfortable silence as you continued to drink, watching the night sky.
โ€œYou know, your talk the other day was fantastic.โ€ He spoke softly, his voice floating across the water to you, โ€œbetter than any other profilers have done on the topic.โ€
โ€œThank you.โ€ You mumbled quietly, risking a very quick glance up at him before you were staring at the horizon again. Hotch let another few moments of silence pass before he spoke up again, the corner of his mouth curving up when he asked you,
โ€œWhy so shy?โ€
That caught your attention, your eyes flying up to his as you clutched at your wine glass, โ€œwhat?โ€ He laughed, shaking his head at you.
โ€œIโ€™m just saying, youโ€™ve been so reserved, aware, quiet on this trip. You almost seem to make yourself smaller whenever Iโ€™m around and Iโ€™m not sure if itโ€™s because you only think of me as your boss or if Iโ€™ve done something to make you at unease.โ€
โ€œChrist.โ€ You muttered, โ€œI thought we werenโ€™t profiling this week.โ€
โ€œHaveโ€ฆ I done something?โ€ He asked, near worry taking over his face and you were quick to drain your drink before jumping to action.
โ€œNo, absolutely not! Hotch, please, youโ€™re like, the most respectful guy I know. You make me feelโ€ฆ well, a lot of things, but uncomfortable is not one of them.โ€ The words slipped from your lips before you could even think about them and you glanced up, your cheeks burning to catch his eyes widening slightly before he grinned, his hand catching yours, grounding you from whatever spiral you were about to drown in.
โ€œSo tell me.โ€ He murmured, his voice silky soft as it hit your ears, his thumb brushing over your knuckles and he gently tugged at your hand after your glass found home on the edge of the tub, โ€œcome here gorgeous.โ€
The pet name nearly made you melt the instant it had left his lips and you felt the fluttering between your legs as you willingly moved through the water when he softly pulled you to him once more. Your breath caught in your throat when he guided you to straddle his lap, one of his hands hesitantly resting on your hip under the water while the other continued to play with your fingers gently.
โ€œWell?โ€ He asked, glancing up at you with a devilish look in his eyes and you let out a low breath, โ€œwhat do I make you feel?โ€
โ€œFlustered.โ€ You managed out, your heart ready to beat itself out of your chest, feeling his thumb rub against your bare skin under the water, encouraging more responses from you, โ€œunfocused, distractedโ€ฆโ€
โ€œHmmโ€ฆโ€ he leant in, pressing a tender kiss to the underside of your jaw, โ€œis that all?โ€
โ€œChrist, Hotch.โ€ You muttered, your eyes nearly fluttering shut as his hand let go of yours, moving so his thumb and forefinger could pinch your chin softly.
โ€œAaronโ€ฆโ€ He insisted, his eyes boring into yours as you opened them and you nodded softly, nearly whimpering at the way his thumb shifted to trace your lower lip. โ€œWhat else?โ€
โ€œAbsolutely and incredibly fucking turned on.โ€
โ€œIs that so?โ€ He murmured, tilting your head to the side so he could kiss your neck, his lips brushing across your skin as he spoke, โ€œis that last part just right now?โ€
โ€œAll week.โ€ You replied, your pulse racing as he continued to litter your skin with tender kisses โ€œall the goddamn timeโ€ฆโ€
โ€œYou think about me a lot hmm?โ€ He nipped at your neck and you gasped, your body jolting towards him under the water, โ€œwhat do you think about me doing?โ€ He nuzzled into the crook of your neck, pressing a kiss just below your ear, โ€œhmm?โ€
โ€œAaronโ€ฆโ€ you breathed out, your head tilted back with your eyes shut as his lips continued to dance across your skin. His hand gently pinched at your hip under the water.
โ€œDonโ€™t go shy on me now, tell me.. what do you think about me doing?โ€
โ€œK- kissing me.โ€ You managed out, unsure whether the heat in your cheeks was from the water, the way you were already putty in his hands or embarrassment of admitting it to his face. A gasp broke free of your lips at the sensation of his hand tracing up and down your spine and you automatically arched toward him, โ€œtouching meโ€ฆโ€ The hand he had under the water toyed with the knot of your bikini on your back, his dry one moving back to your chin, tilting your face back to his.
โ€œI want you to look at me when you say the next one.โ€ His thumb traced your lips, โ€œcome on gorgeous girl, I know thereโ€™s more you like to think of me doing, what is it?โ€
โ€œFucking meโ€ฆโ€ Somehow you were able to hold his gaze while the words floated out of your mouth, it was likely because your brain was already in a haze, first the wine, then the heat and now utterly intoxicated by Hotchโ€™s touch.
โ€œBet you think about that one the most, donโ€™t you?โ€ He asked with a grin and you couldnโ€™t help but nod, โ€œwhen youโ€™re alone at night, touching yourself, pretending itโ€™s me. Picturing me naked, my cock stretching you out until your legs are shaking and youโ€™re seeing stars.โ€
โ€œJesus Christ.โ€
โ€œOh no,โ€ he chuckled darkly, โ€œIโ€™ll have you screaming my name by the end of the night sweetheart, just wait.โ€
You let out a whimper, it was all you had time to do before Aaron sat forward, capturing your lips in a heated kiss that swallowed down any further noise coming from you. The kiss was full of fire, Aaron quickly dominating it and you were completely happy to let it happen, sinking deeper into his arms as yours looped around his shoulders. His dry hand slid up the back of your neck, fingers sinking into your hair while the other hand ventured further south, groping at the globe of your ass. You let out a small moan into the kiss, giving his tongue access to your mouth and he eagerly dove in. You could taste the scotch on him as your tongue danced with his, the smallest hint of a cigar from earlier and you couldnโ€™t help but groan, your hands starting to play with his hair.
He pulled back ever so softly, nipping at your lip quickly before his mouth trailed across the side of your jaw, he left a feather light kiss behind your ear that caused you to let out an airy breath, your head lolling back and he felt himself twitch, hardening in his trunks. His mouth pressed lazy kisses down your neck before he made home in the crook of your neck, alternating between kissing, sucking and biting.
โ€œOh Aaronโ€ฆโ€ You shifted in his lap, lightly grinding against his cock and he let out a low groan onto your skin, his hands clutching you impossibly close to him. He raised his face, eyes dark with arousal as he gazed across at you before his lips found yours again and you were moaning into the kiss, grinding harder down onto his lap, a small gasp leaving your lips when you felt him getting harder underneath you.
Aaron couldnโ€™t get enough of you, he wanted more, he wanted all of you, he wanted his hands and mouth everywhere all at once, he was drunk on your kisses alone and craved every inch of you. The lingering of your perfume was wafting through his senses, the way your lips moved against his made his cock utterly ache as you brushed against it. As much as he wanted to bend you over right then and there he would be completely satisfied just kissing you all night, the internal battle doing its best to figure out what he wanted to act on while your fingertips scratched as his head. You only broke the kiss when you felt like you couldnโ€™t breath anymore, gasping for air, your eyes half shut, forehead resting against his while his hands soothed up and down your sides.
โ€œGodโ€ฆโ€
โ€œStill not the right name.โ€ He teased, pulling a small laugh from you, one that you opened your eyes at, sitting back every so slightly before pressing a quick kiss to his lips. His hands trailed up your arms, coming to rest at the base of your neck, gently tugging at your bikini strings. โ€œMay I?โ€
โ€œMmhm.โ€ You nodded with a wicked grin while your own hands splashed behind you to undo that knot and Hotch let the fabric fall from your skin, not even noticing it float away in the water as you sat up. His eyes raking down your body and over your chest, letting out a groan at the slight bounce as you settled, the way the water dripped down your tits, nipples hard in the cool air.
โ€œGorgeous girl.โ€ He murmured, his hands gently groping your chest, squeezing your tits, thumbs flicking over your nipples and you moaned softly. โ€œSuch pretty sounds too.โ€ You giggled softly, feeling the heat creeping back into your cheeks as his full attention was on your half naked body. His hands continued to play with your chest, rolling your nipples between his thumb and forefinger while yours came up to cup his face, ducking to kiss him again, unable to get enough.
Moaning softly into the kiss, his hands squeezing at your chest, you ground down onto his lap harder, feeling the bulge building between his legs. Your tongue dove into his mouth, doing what you could to keep control of yourself as he increased the pressure on your chest, pinching your nipples. After a few moments he broke the kiss, eager to duck down and suck a nipple in between his lips, teeth scraping against the pert bud. Your hands wrapped around his head, threading into his hair as you held him tighter to you,
โ€œFuck Aaronโ€ฆโ€ You groaned and you felt his lips curve up into a grin against your skin.
โ€œThatโ€™s it sweetheart.โ€ He murmured, blowing cold air onto your nipple before swapping to the other side, โ€œsay my name.โ€
โ€œGod Aaron,โ€ your fingers tightened in his hair, nails scratching at his head, โ€œthat feels so good.โ€
He groaned in response, teeth scraping against your tender skin before he pulled off your chest, burying his face between them to leave a trail of kisses all the way up your neck before kissing you deeply again. When he finally pulled away this time his hands wrapped around your waist, lifting you while he stood,
โ€œUp.โ€ He instructed, โ€œout.โ€
โ€œWhy?โ€ You half laughed, finding your balance on your feet in the water as his arm wrapped around your waist.
โ€œWell I canโ€™t fuck you in the hot tub gorgeous.โ€ He husked against your lips before picking you up in his arms, guiding you to wrap your legs around his waist and he was finally able to get you out of the tub.
Lips pressed against yours, tongue sliding back into your mouth he carried you back into the suite, managing to snag a towel from the back of the chair to toss down onto the bed before he let go of your legs. You let out a whine at the loss of contact, staying up on your toes to not break the kiss and he chuckled into your lips, hands groping at your ass. His hand cradled your face, pulling an inch away from you,
โ€œLie back gorgeous.โ€ He muttered, stealing another kiss before nudging you back towards the bed, โ€œI want to know how pretty you sound when you come.โ€
You collapsed down onto the bed and Hotch was quick to gently drop over you, catching himself with his hands as he caged you into the bed, his lips kissing at your skin again. Your arms wound around him, pulling him closer to you as your lips found his, tongue easily sliding into your mouth when he deepened the kiss. You moaned softly against his lips, back arching off the bed as your hips rocked up, eager for more friction. He let out a low groan at the feeling of you brushing against his cock through thin fabric, feeling himself throb inside his shorts. His free hand slid down your body, swiftly untying one knot of your bikini bottoms and then the other, pulling them away from your body while you lifted your hips to help before he was tossing them behind him.
Aaron cupped between your legs, palm rubbing on your clit while his fingers massaged your wetness, pressing against you, teasing you slightly as you whined into the kiss. A finger slid through your folds, spreading your juices around your cunt, dampening his fingers before he brought them up to your clit, rubbing slow circles on it.
โ€œAaronโ€ฆ please..โ€ You whined, hips rocking up to his touch as you clutched him tighter to you.
He chuckled softly, finger dipping back down before it sunk into your pussy, pumping a few times before he added a second one. โ€œAlready so wet for me.โ€ He husked into your ear, crooking his fingers in search of the sensitive spot inside you as he continued to pump his hand between your legs.
โ€œFuckโ€ฆโ€ you moaned, your body sinking into the lush bed as sparks began to fly under your skin, pleasure fluttering through you while his lips returned to yours, swallowing down your noises. His fingers twisted and scissored inside you, stretching out your warm walls while they skillfully fucked you. He curled them again and you broke the kiss with a gasp, body shivering against the bed as your eyes scrunched shut. You could feel your pussy pulsing around his fingers and you were sure your juices were dripping down his wrist already at this point. His nose nudged at your chin, giving him access to your neck again, nipping and sucking the sensitive skin while his fingers continued to toy with you. โ€œPleaseโ€ฆโ€ you panted, โ€œplease fuck me already.โ€
Aaronโ€™s breath was hot on your neck as he huffed out a laugh, pressing a kiss to your lips before he pulled away, sitting up on his knees between your legs, watching his fingers disappear into you for a few more thrusts before pulling them out of your cunt and sucking them into his mouth. He let out a groan at the taste of your juices, his cock aching at the thought of truly tasting you, wishing that he had more time but you were already whining again and he didnโ€™t want to tease you anymore than he already had. Shifting, he quickly tugged his shorts off and his cock sprung free, hard and throbbing, he wrapped a hand around it, smearing the pre cum as he pumped himself a few times, his eyes falling shut while he let out a heavy sigh before a realization washed over him.
โ€œFuck.โ€
โ€œWhat?โ€ You asked, your eyes flying open, widening slightly at the sight in front of you now that he was completely naked.
โ€œI donโ€™t have any condoms.โ€
โ€œIโ€™m clean.โ€ Was your immediate response, not wanting to delay things any longer, โ€œand Iโ€™ve got an implant.โ€
โ€œAre you sure?โ€ He asked softly and you nodded eagerly.
โ€œPlease Aaron..โ€ you whimpered, โ€œI need youโ€ฆโ€
He leant forward, hand guiding his cock, rubbing it through your lower lips, smearing your juices around it as you let out a small gasp before he sunk fully into you and you both let out a satisfied moan.
โ€œGod youโ€™re tight.โ€ He muttered, dropping over you again, burying his face into the crook of your neck as your legs wrapped around his waist, pulling him impossibly deep inside you. โ€œFuckโ€ฆโ€ He stayed still for a moment, feeling you fluttering around him, he knew if he tried to move he risked coming incredibly early, he was already throbbing.
โ€œFuck you feel so good.โ€ You murmured, arms squeezing at him gently, moaning when he nipped at your skin and that was enough to get him going.
He set a steady pace, plunging into you with a roll of the hips, cock dragging over every inch of your walls, hitting the right spots with each thrust. You clung onto him, your hips rocking up off the bed to meet his with every push, your moans getting louder as he fucked you, pleasure soaring through your body.
โ€œFuckโ€ฆโ€ you whined, โ€œharder Aaron, please.โ€
He pushed himself up, sitting back on his haunches while he grabbed one of your legs, resting it on his shoulder groaning when he slipped even deeper into your pussy. You gasped softly, your hands clutching at the bedspread while his hips came crashing into yours, the noises leaving your lips more frequent, your eyes scrunching shut.
โ€œChrist,โ€ he swore at the way you pulsed around him, squeezing him tight, the coil building deep inside his gut as he watched himself disappear into your cunt. His hands grabbed your hips, lifting them off the bed as he continued to snap his hips into you and you cried out at the new angle, your pussy clenching down around him. โ€œGonโ€™ need you to come sweetheart.โ€ He grunted, โ€œmโ€™not gonna last.โ€
โ€œDonโ€™t stop.โ€ You groaned, fire prickling under your skin as your body shivered, โ€œoh fuck!โ€
Aaron reached down with one hand, pads of his fingers rubbing furiously at your clit and your body shook, hips jolting as he continued to pound into you. You felt the pleasure burst, pussy clenching around his thick cock, juices dribbling across your skin as you cried out.
โ€œOh god Aaron!โ€ Your hips jumped in his hands, body shaking, thighs clenching around him as your peak hit, a chorus of his name and breathy swears escaping your lips, floating around the room just enough to drive him absolutely wild. โ€œFuckโ€ฆ yes! Oh fuck Aaron.โ€
He didnโ€™t let up, thrusting faster, the pressure on your clit harder as he leant forward, driving into you harder as he started to chase his own peak. He grunted, hips nearly faltering as your pussy continued to flutter around him, his arm winding tightly around your waist, holding you to him.
โ€œCโ€™mon gorgeous. Youโ€™ve got one more in you. Come again for me.โ€
You let out a whine, your hands gripping at his body, nails digging into his skin and you swore you practically blacked out when your second orgasm hit, letting out a cry as you tensed in his arms, twitching as you whimpered. Aaron groaned, fucking into you a few more times as his hips faltered and he sunk into your cunt with one last heavy thrust, hissing as he came, spilling into your pussy.
Panting, he gently collapsed over you, arms winding tighter around you in an effort to solidify this moment into his memory, not wanting to forget the way you looked, the way you felt wrapped around his cock, the noises you made when you came, how your lips felt on his skin, the sweetness of your taste. Under him you were slowly catching your breath, a happy hum leaving your lips when he placed a kiss onto your shoulder. One of your hands gently ran up and down his back and you felt him relax deeper into you, letting out a soft moan. Finally he pulled his head up enough to kiss you, lips moving lazily together until he gently rolled off you onto his side, letting out a quiet hiss as his cock slipped out of your warmth. You rolled toward him, happily accepting the arm he swung over waist as he pulled you toward him again, ducking down to nip at the tender spot forming on your neck before kissing you softly.
โ€œWell thatโ€™s one way to enjoy a conference.โ€ You murmured, your lips curving up into a grin and he huffed out a laugh, eyes sparkling down at yours.
โ€œFuck the conference. Let me give you a reason to stay in bed.โ€
โ€œIs that an order Agent Hotchner?โ€ You asked with raised brow and he smirked.
โ€œA direct one.โ€ He kissed you again, lips brushing yours as he spoke, โ€œno way either of us is leaving this suite โ€˜til Friday. Thatโ€™s why room service was invented.โ€
โ€œI donโ€™t think thatโ€™s right, but Iโ€™m not going to argue.โ€
โ€œOh but you love to prove youโ€™re right.โ€ He teased, smiling as you rolled him onto his back.
โ€œYeah, but I can think of a few better uses for my mouth right now.โ€
*
Aaronโ€™s suggestion was exactly the way you spent the next two days, tangled in each otherโ€™s limbs, sheets barely covering bodies while you discovered every inch of the other persons skin. By Friday afternoon you knew just exactly how to touch each other so that you would see stars every single time. Aaron was about to suggest staying the weekend for a few more days of bliss when his phone went off and you were both called back to work. The team was already on the jet, meaning you were flying commercia to California to meet them there.
You were immediately roped into a coffee run with Emily, even if it was only to the breakroom and back, she had to get her complaints out about the days with her mother and honestly, wanted to know how things went being trapped in a hotel with Hotch all week. Scooping up your coffee you snagged a granola bar from the shelf, wandering back down the hall to the team as you caught up, you shoved the bar into your pocket so you could pull open the door and your hand hit something metal, your brow furrowing as you stalled in your tracks. In turn, Emily pulled open the door, propping it so Hotch could step through, no doubt on his way to secure his own caffeine, nodding to the both of you as he said a quick thanks.
โ€œAaron!โ€ You called after him, having now pulled the item out of your pocket, realizing it was his watch and he turned back to you just in time to catch it as you tossed it to him. His head titled in confusion, glancing up at you as he slid it back onto his wrist, โ€œyou left it in the bin when we went through security, I forgot I grabbed it.โ€
โ€œThanks.โ€ A flash of a smile crept onto his lips before he turned away, making his way down the hall.
โ€œOhโ€ฆ my god.โ€ Emily quietly gasped, smacking your arm, โ€œyou hooked up and you werenโ€™t planning on fucking telling me?!โ€
โ€œWhat?โ€ Your eyes shot to her, quickly stepping through the door to make sure Hotch wouldnโ€™t hear you, โ€œno. Em, donโ€™t be ridiculous.โ€
โ€œPlease. When have you ever called him Aaron before? And I did not miss that hickey on his neck.โ€
Your eyes widened quickly, remembering how youโ€™d made home in the crook of his neck while riding him, his arms wound around you, squeezing you softly as his cock plunged into your cunt. It was the same round heโ€™d lavished your chest, his mouth barely leaving them, under your shirt you had your own set of hickeys and bite marks littered across your body. The memories were enough to bring a tingling down south, desire beginning to flood through you as heat crept into your cheeks. That of course was enough for Emily to confirm that her suspicions were right, trying not to gape as she attempted to form a coherent response. Before she could though, Hotch came back through the door, already hanging up a call from Garcia.
โ€œPrentiss, take JJ and head down to talk to the family, Agent,โ€ he turned to you, โ€œgrab your coat weโ€™re going to the crime scene.โ€
โ€œYes sir.โ€ You nodded, your cheeks flushing at the use of the title already and a possessive look shot through his eyes lightning fast, the corner of his mouth twitching up into a very brief smirk that Emily caught and did her best to hold back a laugh. He was back across the room in an instant, handing out tasks to the rest of the team and Emily pinched at your arm.
โ€œWell, get ready for round two in the car.โ€ She teased and you turned to her with a smug grin.
โ€œMore like round eleven.โ€

Masterlist here; previous chapter here
The first time it happened, you were at the library desk, sitting down and pouring over a handful of new returns, typing in their serial numbers to check where they were meant to be shelved.ย 
โ€œExcuse me?โ€ You looked up. A guy, probably in his mid twenties, with blindingly white teeth and perfect olive skin, smiled down at you. โ€œCould I ask you a question?โ€ย 
โ€œOf course.โ€ You pushed away the book and leaned forward on the desk, hands smoothed down over the cold surface. โ€œHow can I help you?โ€ย 
โ€œIโ€™m looking for a book about motorcycle repairs.โ€ย 
โ€œSure, I think that would be over in that back left corner.โ€ You pointed one finger.ย 
He grinned. โ€œCare to show me?โ€ There was something flirty about the way he said it and you felt your blood pressure rise.ย 
โ€œSure.โ€ You stood up and walked around the edge of the desk.ย 
His eyes widened as he looked you up and down. He cleared his throat. โ€œActually, uh, Iโ€™m sure I can find it myself. Thanks.โ€ He was gone before you could even comprehend what had happened.ย 
And then you looked down and realized you could no longer hide it.ย 
***
โ€œY/N?โ€ Jakeโ€™s voice rang out in the apartment. โ€œHoney?โ€ย 
You emerged around the corner wearing a sweatshirt and a pair of bike shorts with a frown. โ€œWhat did we talk about?โ€ย 
He smirked. โ€œSorry, habit.โ€ย 
โ€œWhat do you want?โ€ you asked, crossing your arms over your chest.ย 
โ€œJust wanted to tell you Iโ€™m going out,โ€ he said quietly.ย 
โ€œThe bar?โ€ย 
He hesitated. Then, โ€œUm, No. a date.โ€ย 
Your heart squeezed. And even though you had said he should date, you hadnโ€™t really meant it. You hadnโ€™t thought he would go through with it. โ€œOh,โ€ you whispered. โ€œOK. See you later I guess.โ€ย 
Jake frowned. โ€œDo you, uh, want to come with?โ€ย 
You cackled. โ€œYouโ€™re joking, right?โ€ย 
โ€œI donโ€™t know what to do here, Y/N,โ€ he sighed. โ€œYou seem upset but you told me to date. You practically shoved me out the door. And now I feel guilty leaving you alone.โ€ย 
โ€œIโ€™ll call Phoenix,โ€ you said, picking up the phone. โ€œI donโ€™t want to go along on whatever slut date you have planned.โ€ย 
Jakeโ€™s face hardened. โ€œWell OK. I guess Iโ€™ll see you later.โ€ The sound of the door closing, hard, made you jump.ย 
You collapsed on the couch and pulled out your phone. โ€œPhoenix, itโ€™s Y/N. Listen, do you want to come over?โ€ You paused. โ€œJake is out on a date.โ€ย 
โ€œIโ€™ll be there in ten.โ€ย 
***
โ€œHeโ€™s a jerk.โ€ย 
โ€œI told him to go!โ€ย 
Phoenix yanked her hand out of the popcorn bowl. โ€œStill. Jerk.โ€ย 
โ€œWas he like this when the two of you were together?โ€ย 
She closed her eyes for a moment then shook her head. โ€œYeah, uh, heโ€™s always been like this.โ€
โ€œWhy do you sound so hesitant?โ€ย 
โ€œHonestly?โ€ย 
โ€œHit me.โ€ You pulled your legs up beneath you on the couch and slapped your knees.ย 
โ€œI thought he would be different,โ€ she said quietly. โ€œWith you. With the baby. That maybe this was the wakeup call he needed to get his life together.โ€ย 
โ€œI guess not,โ€ you replied.ย 
โ€œDonโ€™t count him out yet,โ€ Phoenix added, sipping her wine. โ€œHe might surprise you.โ€ย 
Less than an hour later, you and Phoenix both turned as the key in the lock swiveled and the door opened. She looked over at you, wide eyed, as Jake stepped inside alone.ย 
โ€œTrace,โ€ he called out as he stepped into the living room. โ€œY/N.โ€ย 
โ€œHangman,โ€ she said, folding her arms over her chest. โ€œYouโ€™re home early. Quickie by the side of the road, no dinner?โ€ย 
He blushed, a grimace over his handsome and chiseled jawline. โ€œDonโ€™t you have somewhere to be?โ€ย 
โ€œYup,โ€ she said, tossing one arm over your shoulder. โ€œRight here, watching Desperate Housewives.โ€ย 
โ€œNatasha,โ€ he said and there was something in his voice. Both of you registered it. A pleading.ย 
She turned to you. โ€œGuess thatโ€™s my cue. Call me.โ€ Phoenix stood up, her tanned legs unfolding gracefully. As she crossed the room, her eyes lingered in Jake but his eyes were glued on you. He stood in the middle of the room until the sound of the door shutting rattled the wall.ย 
โ€œHow was your date?โ€ you asked.ย 
โ€œI told her about you and she walked out.โ€ย 
โ€œYouโ€™re so dumb.โ€ You shook your head. โ€œWhy on earth would you tell her that on a first date?โ€ย 
Jake rubbed his eyes furiously. โ€œWhat the hell else am I supposed to say, Y/N? If I want to take a girl back to my place, youโ€™re in the next room. In six months, there will be a baby in a crib in the apartment.โ€ย 
You stood up. โ€œYouโ€™re the one who asked me to move in. Who begged me. And now youโ€™re blaming your shitty sex life on me?โ€ย 
โ€œI, fuck!โ€ Jake tossed his hands up into the air. His face, normally so composed, was angry. He stepped forward and instinctively your hands fell to your stomach. He stopped, his eyes wide. โ€œDo you think Iโ€™m going to hurt you?โ€ he whispered, voice shaking.ย 
โ€œI donโ€™t know,โ€ you replied softly. Was he going to hurt you? Was dating someone else hurting you, even if you said it was fine? Was staying out late, flirting with other women, hurting you?ย 
Youโ€™d be lying if you said no.ย 
His green eyes bore into yours. โ€œIโ€™m going to bed.โ€ย 
โ€œJake!โ€ You called out after him but he was already halfway down the hallway.ย 
You were frozen in the living room as the sound of his bedroom door shutting filled the apartment. Without thinking, you padded down the hallway and flung open the door to his room. Jake whirled around, his chest bare, wearing just a pair of khakis. โ€œY/N,โ€ he breathed out. โ€œWhat are youโ€“?โ€ย 
โ€œAre you going to hurt me?โ€ you whispered, stepping closer.ย 
โ€œNever.โ€ย 
โ€œWhy did you tell her?โ€ you whispered.ย 
โ€œWhat?โ€ย 
โ€œThe girl. The date. Why did you tell her about me?โ€ย 
Jake hesitated. โ€œI told you. If I wanted to bring her home โ€“โ€ย 
You shook your head, interrupting him. โ€œThatโ€™s not the real reason, is it?โ€ You stepped closer, so only a whisper of space was between the two of you.ย 
โ€œY/N.โ€ Jakeโ€™s voice was low and dark, it practically rumbled through your body. โ€œWhat are you doing?โ€ย 
โ€œAre you going to hurt me?โ€ you repeated.ย 
โ€œNo.โ€ย 
โ€œDo you want me to see other people?โ€ย 
โ€œNo.โ€ It came out automatically.ย 
โ€œWhy not?โ€ย 
โ€œBecause.โ€ His breath was warm and smelled like beer but you knew without a shadow of a doubt he was stone cold sober. โ€œBecause youโ€™re carrying my child.โ€ย 
โ€œThatโ€™s it?โ€ you asked. โ€œThatโ€™s the only reason.โ€ The room was dark and heady. You could feel your pulse racing.ย 
โ€œYou think I want other men touching you?โ€ he whispered. โ€œPutting their hands on your stomach, feeling our baby when I've never even felt our baby move?โ€ย 
You reached out, taking one of his hands in his, your other hand easing up the edge of your sweatshirt. Jake sucked in a breath at the curve of your lower stomach as you pressed his fingertips below your belly button. In the slim sliver of moonlight, you watched his tanned, large hand hold on. โ€œItโ€™s too early,โ€ you whispered. โ€œTo feel anything.โ€ You looked up.ย 
Jake was silent, his eyes glued to your stomach, his fingertips warm against your stretched skin.ย 
โ€œIโ€™m asking you,โ€ you said quietly, โ€œnot to hurt me.โ€ย 
Jake pulled his hand away, but you could still feel the heat of his skin on yours. โ€œThatโ€™s the last thing Iโ€™m going to do.โ€ย 
You stepped back. Any closer and you would throw yourself into Jakeโ€™s arms. You wanted nothing more than to feel his strong arms wrap around your body, pull you in tightly. Feel the whisper of his lips against yours.ย 
But for your sanity, you stepped back, into the door frame. Let the moonlight slip from Jakeโ€™s face until he was plunged into darkness.ย 
โ€œGoodnight,โ€ you whispered.ย 
Even in the darkness, you could picture his frown. โ€œGoodnight.โ€ย 
***
โ€œTell me everything.โ€
Bob blushed and you nudged his arm with your elbow. Across the table, Phoenix grinned. โ€œTell her, Floyd.โ€ย 
โ€œHer name is Sena,โ€ he replied quietly. โ€œWe met on Hinge.โ€ย 
You squealed. Across the table, Bradley covered his ears while Phoenix cackled.ย 
Bob patted your hand. โ€œDucky, please.โ€ย 
โ€œTell me more,โ€ you begged.ย 
He dipped his head. โ€œSheโ€™s pretty.โ€ย 
โ€œSheโ€™s fucking hot,โ€ Phoenix corrected.ย 
โ€œSheโ€™s beautiful,โ€ Bob countered and you watched the way his eyes lit up. โ€œSheโ€™s a pharmacist. Her family is from Mexico and she likes to surf.โ€ย 
โ€œSo sheโ€™s hot,โ€ you said, leaning back and giggling. โ€œBobby, Iโ€™m happy. Are you happy?โ€ย 
โ€œIโ€™m happy.โ€ย 
โ€œWhy are we so happy?โ€ Jake slid into the spot next to you on the bench, his thigh grazing yours for a second and you felt a flutter in your stomach. Jitters.ย 
โ€œBobby here has a girlfriend,โ€ you said proudly.
Jakeโ€™s jaw dropped. โ€œShut up.โ€ย 
โ€œOK Regina George,โ€ Phoenix countered and the group laughed.ย 
โ€œBring her around sometime, Floyd,โ€ Jake said. โ€œIโ€™ll believe it when I see it.โ€ย 
You swatted at him playfully. โ€œDonโ€™t tease him.โ€ย 
Jake caught your hand for a moment mid-air and the two of you paused, your eyes locked. And then Rooster coughed and your hand fell. You turned back to Bob whose blue eyes were watching you carefully.ย 
โ€œBring her around, though,โ€ you said. โ€œPlease, Bobby? I want to meet her.โ€ย 
He took your hand and squeezed. โ€œOK, Duck. You can meet her.โ€ย 
***
โ€œA bar, really?โ€ You frowned at the text on your phone. Bob and his new girlfriend were already at The Hard Deck with Phoenix and Coyote. You grunted and tugged at your dress, too tight around the middle. โ€œI look fat,โ€ you muttered to yourself.ย 
โ€œYouโ€™re pregnant.โ€ Jake hovered in the doorway and you turned.ย 
โ€œI just look like I ate twelve donuts.โ€ย 
โ€œYou look beautiful.โ€ย 
โ€œShut up.โ€ย 
He shook his head. โ€œNo.โ€ย 
โ€œI should change.โ€ย 
Jake grinned. โ€œShould I sit down or is it not that kind of show?โ€ย 
You rolled your eyes. โ€œWait in the living room, Iโ€™ll be five minutes.โ€ย 
โ€œI grew up with sisters, itโ€™s never five minutes.โ€ His voice trailed off as he meandered down the hallway. Twenty minutes later, you hated that he was right, you emerged in the living room wearing a flowing dress and your hair swept up, a pair of earrings dangling toward your collarbone. Jake stood up and patted down the legs of his jeans. โ€œYou look perfect.โ€ย 
โ€œAre you sure?โ€ you asked nervously. โ€œI can go change, andโ€“โ€ย 
โ€œWoman.โ€ He stepped forward and grabbed your arm lightly. โ€œNo more changing. Weโ€™re late as it is.โ€ย 
โ€œDid you just call me woman?โ€ย 
Jake opened the door to his truck, shaking his head. โ€œHop in. Please.โ€ย 
The ride to the bar was largely silent, punctuated by Jake asking you what radio station you wanted and how you were feeling. By the time you pulled up to the bar, you could sense something was off. โ€œAre you going to tell me, or do I have to guess?โ€ย 
โ€œWhat?โ€ He cut the engine.ย 
โ€œYouโ€™re acting weird.โ€ย 
โ€œIโ€™m literally not saying anything.โ€
โ€œThatโ€™s whatโ€™s weird!โ€ย 
โ€œThereโ€™s no winning with you, sweetheart.โ€ย 
โ€œUgh there you go again with the nicknames.โ€ย 
โ€œJesus.โ€ He flung open his door and stomped out. You struggled to chase after him, practically wobbling to catch up with him in the gravel parking lot.ย 
โ€œJake!โ€ He whipped around as your fingertips closed around his bicep. โ€œWhatโ€™s the matter with you?โ€ย 
โ€œYou think itโ€™s easy?โ€ he asked. โ€œSeeing you looking like that walking into a place like this?โ€ย 
You frowned. โ€œIโ€™m pregnant. No one is looking at me.โ€ย 
โ€œEveryone is looking at you,โ€ he whispered hotly. โ€œYou donโ€™t look pregnant at all in that outfit. You look fucking gorgeous and I guarantee that every single guy in there is going to try to buy you a drink.โ€ย 
โ€œWell I canโ€™t drink,โ€ you spat back. โ€œSo unless they want to buy me a ginger ale they can fuck off.โ€ย 
โ€œI better not see anyone touching you.โ€ย 
โ€œWell then you better keep your eyes peeled.โ€ You shook your head. โ€œIโ€™m going to find Bobby.โ€ย 
The bar was crowded and you had to weave your way through sweaty bodies to get to the back. Just as one elbow was about to shoot out and smash you in the face, a hand pulled you back and you felt your back press against a hard chest, Jakeโ€™s fingertips smoothing over your side. โ€œWatch out,โ€ he hissed at the guy with the curveball elbow. โ€œYou almost hit her in the face.โ€ย 
โ€œSorry dude.โ€ The guy barely shifted and Jake shoved him out of the way, using his forearm as a shield to protect you from the masses until the two of you were birthed out of the crowd into the back of the room.ย 
Bob stood up immediately and you stepped closer to him, Jakeโ€™s hand falling from your side. โ€œDucky,โ€ he said and you tossed your arms around his neck, inhaling his familiar scent. โ€œThis is Sena. Sena, this is my little sister Y/N.โ€ย 
She held out one hand. โ€œHi, so nice to meet you! Bobby has told me so much about you.โ€ย 
Sena was way cuter than Bob had described. Tall and lithe, with beautiful tanned skin and shiny dark hair that fell past her shoulders with a slight wave. She had a stack of gold bracelets on one arm, and was wearing a pair of shorts and a crop top, a taunt section of skin showing a tattoo curved around her side that you couldnโ€™t quite make out. You grinned. โ€œNice to meet you, too.โ€ย 
โ€œHere, sit.โ€ Bob pulled out a chair and you settled in. You turned, expecting Jake to be right behind you, but he disappeared into the crowd. Instead, you shook your head and turned to Sena.ย 
โ€œSo tell me everything,โ€ you said and Bob shook his head with a sigh. โ€œLetโ€™s start with your biggest icks about my brother.โ€ย 
She laughed and you sat and listened as she waxed poetic about Bobby. There was an air about them, you noticed it instantly. The way her hand floated to his thigh, how he would smile at her when she spoke. A spark. Something deep inside of you panged with jealousy, and happiness.ย 
After a while, once the conversation had flipped to Bradley, you swiveled around and squinted. Jake still hadnโ€™t come back to the table. It had been at least forty minutes since the two of you had arrived.ย 
You stood up and Bob looked up, eyes wide. โ€œHave to pee,โ€ you said and he nodded. You weaved through the crowd, now thinning on the edges, toward the long hallway in the back.ย 
But as you rounded the corner, your breath caught.ย 
Jake, with one hand pressed against the wood wall, leaning over a short redhead, her doe eyes trained on him, his free hand tipping her chin up toward him. You watched, mouth agape, as he leaned down and pressed his lips to hers.ย 
You turned and fled, before he could see you. Even if it meant peeing your pants. You would pee in the sand, for all you cared. Anything to get away from Jake Seresin in that moment.ย

Unknown Number Part 2
the long anticipated part two to unknown number. enjoy!
Part Three is now up!
italics: y/n (unknown number)
bold: harry
(one day later)
HS: Hey, I haven't heard from you. Is everything okay?
HS: I know you're busy and everything, but maybe you feel differently after us talking?
HS: It doesn't have to be different. We can go back to just texting I don't mind.
(one day later)
HS: You're not avoiding me are you?
HS: June?
(one day later)
HS: I don't know what I did, but whatever it is I'm sorry.
HS: But I'm starting to get worried. Are you okay? Like safety wise? Cold shoulder I can take but I would feel awful if you were hurt or in danger or something?
HS: Can you at least let me know you're alright?
J is typing...
(twenty minutes later)
J: i'm fine
HS: Good!
HS: Did I do something?
J: no i just think i was served a cold dose of reality a couple days ago
J: sorry for disappearing on you
HS: It's okay.
HS: Would you be more comfortable if we just went back to texting?
J is typing...
J: maybe
HS: Maybe?
J: i...like the sound of your voice
HS: You do, do you? ;))
J: don't be smug!
HS: I'm not, I swear!
HS is typing...
HS: I like the sound of your voice too.
(later that evening)
Y/n stared down at her phone and wondered if she was the biggest asshole on the planet.
She was never supposed to know who H was. Sure, she'd thought about it, had stayed up for hours thinking about who might be on the other side of their conversations. But it was all guessing and daydreaming. Y/n never actually thought she'd figure it out. Or that H would stand for Harry. As in Harry mother fucking Styles.
The person Y/n had been texting wasn't some serial killer or internet troll or some random person. He was one of the most popular names in pop culture right now. And not only that, they were in the same vicinity for the next few months while Five Seconds of Summer opened for One Direction.
When she heard H's voice, when she realized H was Harry, Y/n ran. She high-tailed it back to the tour bus, shooting a quick text to One Direction's stylist to tell her she wasn't feeling well and if she could take care of her band. Y/n pretended to be sick for a couple days while she hid on the tour bus. No one questioned it, but she did feel a little guilty for not doing the job she was paid to do.
But what was she supposed to do? The potential for running into Harry was extremely high. Y/n had no idea what she would do if they spoke and he came to the same realization as she had. She wasn't sure if she'd be able to handle the disappointment on Harry's face when he saw her and knew.
Pursing her lips, she typed out a new message.
(ten minutes from the last text)
J: do you ever think about us meeting?
(five minutes later)
HS: All the time.
J: you do?
HS: Of course. I mean it's hard not to.
J: do you...think you'd ever be disappointed by meeting me?
HS: Uh no?
HS: Is there a reason for this line of questioning?
J: no not really. just curious
HS: Somehow I feel like that's not true.
J: i don't know
J: i'm not sure why i'm in my head about this it's not like we'll actually meet
HS: You really think that?
J: do you think we ever would?
HS: I don't know.
HS: But I think I'd like to. One day.
J: you don't even know me!
HS: I do though!
HS: And you know me too!
HS: Where is all of this coming from?
J: i just think we should be realistic
J: i texted you by accident and we've become like modern day pen pals or something
HS: So you...don't want to meet me? Ever?
J: it's not about want it's about practicality. i just don't think talking about us in that way is smart
HS: You brought it up!
HS: And what do you mean by us?
(fifteen minutes later)
HS: Oh, so you're gonna ignore me now? Real mature.
HS: You're the one who brought all of this up you know.
HS: But you're probably right. I know I've been bothering you, but I think you had the right idea. I think we need a little space.
Tumblr media
(one day later)
Harry was unreasonably irritated. Angry didn't seem like the right word, but nothing about his situation was normal.
June was technically right. This whole thing was ridiculous and nonsensical and completely impractical. There was no scenario where they would ever meet or...
Harry couldn't even think about it. Thinking about June like that...thinking about June at all outside of their messages was stupid. He didn't need to be thinking about her, about anyone that way.
So why was he so frustrated?
Maybe it was that June wrote him off so quickly and seemingly out of nowhere. It wasn't like they ever needed to talk about the obvious, which was that they'd probably never meet despite the fact that he'd grown fond of her. Harry was perfectly content to talk about whatever popped into his head or June's latest Tinder dateโ€”though that topic was slowly starting to grate on Harry for reasons he refused to admit. Now it was a jumbled mess.
With his head bent, Harry walked toward craft services. He pulled out his phone, looking at past conversations and willing himself not to send another one. June hadn't responded to him since his last message, and he wasn't sure how to feel about it. On the one hand, it was what he'd asked for, but he still was itching to talk to her. Harry had grown used to expecting a quick response, had enjoyed June's wit and charming personality with each message she sent.
And now it was all weird and Harry's emotions were all over the place.
"Oof! Hey, watch where you're going!"
Harry glared down at the young woman who'd bumped into himโ€”or who he'd bumped into, but he was too caught up in his own world to realize it. The young woman's eyes widened in shock as she stepped away from him. She opened her mouth as if she was about to speak, but nothing came out. Maybe a little squeaking.
He'd seen her around before, but not much. Honestly, these days Harry was usually holed up somewhere on the bus or at the venue texting June. But he'd seen the back of her head as she scurried around, or at a table on her own during lunch as she scrolled on her phone. He was pretty sure she was Five Seconds of Summer's stylist, but he didn't know for sure.
Raising his eyes at her expectantly. Harry waited for her to say something. "Sorry," she said, barely said. She was so quiet, Harry could hardly hear it. She looked scared of him, which made him feel bad. He was in a mood, but he didn't want to make anyone feel terrified of him, and this girl looked like she was about to cry.
He tried to apologize, but she scurried off before he could. Harry watched her go and sighed. He couldn't wait to get onstage and forget about June and the texts and all the ways she made him feel things he wasn't supposed to feel.
(later that night)
HS: Are we okay?
J: i don't know
J: i think so
HS: I feel like I'm going crazy.
J: how so?
HS: All I've been able to think about is our last conversation. I don't want to not talk to you.
HS: Can I admit something?
J: of course
HS is typing...
HS: I want to hear your voice again.
(five minutes later)
HS: You know, for the first time I think I actually kind of sounded like a creep.
HS: I didn't mean it in a creepy way I promise.
J: i know what you meant
J: in every other circumstance it would raise a red flag
HS: But this time?
J: i think i just want to hear your voice again too
HS: Yeah?
J: i'm not going to say it again to boost your ego
HS: :((
J: you know, you say all the time that you don't date, but i have a feeling you like having your ego fluffed
HS: Who doesn't?
J: attention whore. that's what you are!
HS: That was mean >:(
J: i would like to make it known that i'm sticking my tongue out right now
HS: I'm flipping you off!
(five minutes later)
J: so we're okay?
HS: Yeah. We're okay.
Tumblr media
(one day later)
J: are boys always filled with energy?
HS: I would say 90 percent of the time. Why?
J: my clients are just...a lot sometimes
J: very nice but a lot
J: like the brothers i never asked for
HS: Aw. Are they getting on your case about your bad taste in men now too?
J: you're not as funny as you think you are
J: and maybe
J: they tease me about the constant beeping of my phone. they want to know who i'm texting all the time
HS: And what do you say?
J: that i'm texting my boyfriend
J: i feel like it keeps them at bay
HS: Boyfriend huh?
J: oh hush
HS: Don't tell anyone, but I like the sound of that.
J: don't tell anyone but i do too
(two minutes later)
J: i feel like we're wandering into dangerous territory here
HS: Maybe.
HS: I'm not as bothered about it as I thought though.
J: no?
HS: Are you?
HS: Sorry. You don't have to answer that.
J: that's ok. i just don't know how i feel
J: not a cop out just the truth
HS: I believe you. Will you tell me when you do know?
J: of course
(later that night)
J: how does one acquire a new mother?
HS: Typically through divorce.
J: that won't work. my parents are miserable people together. kindred spirits
HS: what did she do this time?
J: it's stupid
HS: Not if it made you upset.
(ten minutes later)
HS: June?
J: sorry i was crying
HS is typing...
(one minute later)
Y/n's eyes widened at the incoming phone call on her screen. She knew she shouldn't have told him she was upset, but she needed someone to talk to, and somehow H had become the person she confided in.
Even then she didn't expect Harry to call her.
Hesitantly, Y/n picked up the phone. "Hโ€”Hello?"
"Why were you crying, June?"
"I'm fine, H, I promiseโ€”"
"No, you're not. I can still hear it in your voice. What's wrong?"
"I..." Was their first conversation really going to be her crying to H about her family drama? Y/n knew perfectly well that he probably had a million other things he could be doing. She was aware that both bands typically went out after shows. The boys of Five Seconds of Summer had tried to persuade her to go out numerous times, but she had yet to take the bait. Y/n was perfectly happy to lay in her bunk and text H, who she now realized might have been in a bunk of his own a couple buses over. The thought made her stomach feel fluttery and nauseous at the same time.
"My mom posted on Facebook about one of my cousins who just got married," Y/n explained. "And she said, or commented, or whatever that she was, 'so happy' and 'so proud' of the 'daughter she always wanted.'"
"Oh, June, I'm so sorry."
"It's fine, I swear it's fine," Y/n insisted, but even as she said it, she felt more tears begin to leak from her eyes. "I knew she was disappointed. Marriage is a huge deal in my family, and I didn't wantโ€”She called her the daughter she always wanted. What kind of mother says that?"
Y/n knew she was something of an outcast in her family, but she never thought her mom would say something like that, and so publicly. Facebook was her family's way of staying connected. This was a message for her entire extended family, not just Y/n.
"June, Iโ€”I don't even know what to say. That's horrible," H said.
"And you know what's the worst part?" Y/n asked. "Deep down I can't help but wonder if I should just settle down and get married like she wants me to because really, what am I doing here? I've been trying to make my way in this industry, but at what cost? My family has all but disowned me, I hardly have any friends because I live in a new town that just eats up my meager paychecks, andโ€”"
"Hey," H said gently. "Do you really think you'd be happier back home with...with a husband at, what? 22?"
Y/n sniffled and rubbed her eye. "Probably, not, butโ€”"
"And do you want this?" he asked.
"I thought I did."
"June. Do. You. Want. This?" he repeated.
He was the only person Y/n would admit it to. "I...I really do, H."
"Then go for it," he said. "I believe in you. In a year or two, everyone is going to want to work with you. You'll be the one turning people down."
"If only."
"Hey, that's not the voice of a confident woman. I need to hear confidence."
"Hโ€”"
"No, I need confidence. I can't be the only one believing in you here," H said, which made you smile despite the tear stains on your cheeks. "Do you need me to shout it? Because I will. Don't think I won't."
Y/n tried to stop him, but H proceeded to shoutโ€”to whom, she wasn't sureโ€”that she was the best stylist and that she was the coolest person he knew and all sorts of nonsense that made her giggle and continually tell him to shut up.
"Okay. That's enough! Harry, that'sโ€”"
She stopped immediately. It was a slip of the tongue. Y/n had gotten caught up in the moment and his name just...it just came out. Her heart stopped and her hands began to shake, nearly making her drop her phone in her lap.
Y/n prayed that he missed it, that amidst all the laughing and shouting, H didn't hear it. But the minute his name left her lips, it was dead quiet.
"How do you know my name?" he asked. His voice wasn't lighthearted anymore. It was stone cold, closed off.
"I...I don'tโ€”"
"You do. You just said Harry. How do you know me? Have you known the whole time?"
"No! I didn'tโ€”I don'tโ€”"
"I can't believe this. I can't believe that I...that I let myself fall for this. Youโ€”You lied!"
"I didn't lie! I swear, I neverโ€”I never knew anything until..."
"Until what?" he shouted, and you flinched.
What was she supposed to say? That they were on tour together? Harry would definitely think she stalked him then. He was so angry, there was no way he would listen to reason right now.
"Until what, June?"
"I'm so sorry," she said, her voice just above a whisper.
"Don't try to contact me again, or I'll call the police," he said harshly before hanging up.
Y/n could only stare down at her phone in disbelief.
Tumblr media
(two days later)
Y/n decided to spend her days perusing thrift stores. Hiding, really.
Her first-ever clients as a stylist were pretty low-maintenance. When she met them for the first time and saw their scuffed-up sneakers and ripped jeans, Y/n knew she wouldn't be stretching her creativity pretty far. But her job was to find clothes that represented her clients' image, which was exactly what she did.
While everyone else on tour was doing who knew what, Y/n went to local thrift stores in search of vintage t-shirts and good quality jeans that would be easy to move around him. One time, she came back with a pair of gorgeous leather boots that she thought would be perfect for Luke, but he said outright that he wouldn't wear them. Boys, honestly.
It wasn't much, but they appreciated when she came back with cool band and graphic shirts. She sewed up holes and ripped new ones when she was asked. Y/n felt like Snow White sometimes, and the boys were her dwarfs, but they were nice and funny and kept her distracted, which she needed right now.
She was in a small thrift store in Oregon, a couple pieces on her armโ€”two flannels, a baseball tee, a t-shirt with Kurt Cobain on it, and a couple leather bracelets. Now that she'd been on tour with the wonderful members of Five Seconds of Summer, Y/n had an idea of what each member liked. They had very similar styles and often shared the clothes she picked out for themโ€”which honestly made her life easier considering her smaller-than-small budget.
But she still thought about H, of course she did. There were times when she felt compelled to go up to him at the concert venue, or even his tour bus, but she feared that would just make things worse. He already thought she was a stalker, she wasn't going to make it worse by just...appearing right in front of him.
She didn't know what to do, but not doing anything made her heart hurt. Not talking to him made her heart hurt. Y/n couldn't believe that this was how their text friendship turned out. Of all the ways she imagined this thing ending, having Harry block her number and him virtually hating her.
"Just this today, hun?" the woman behind the counter asked when she brought the clothes up.
Y/n nodded. After her major slip up, she hadn't done much talking. She felt like a ghost, floating from place to place without a word until she could go back to her bus bunk and look at old messages. Y/n didn't really want to be on this tour anymore, but she couldn't bring herself to quit. She didn't have the energy.
Back at the new concert venue, Y/n went to the boys' dressing room. They crowded around her as she showed them the shirts and bracelets. "I can cut up the sleeves on some of them if you want," she said quietly.
"Really?"
"That'd be awesome!"
"Maybe a couple holes around the neck?"
"Do you think you could write 'IDIOT' on this one?"
Y/n had only been half-listening, but she looked over at Michael with her brows raised when he said that. "You want me to write what?"
"I don't know, I think it'd be cool. Don't you?"
All four of them looked to her at that. Since the tour started, the boys went to her for fashion advice. That was technically her job, but it felt like she suddenly had four younger brothers.
"Yโ€”Yeah. Very punk rock. I'll get on that right now."
"You're the best, June!"
"I could kiss you!"
"Please don't," she said, shoulders tensing when they all squeezed her.
The four boys left her alone in search of foodโ€”because they were always hungryโ€”and Y/n got to work. Or tried to. She was alone for all of two seconds before the door slammed open.
"Really? You fucking stalked your way onto this tour?"
It was the first time Y/n had seen Harry since the one time she bumped into him in the hallway a few days ago. Y/n thought he'd looked irritated then, but he looked downright furious now. His face was red and mouth turned into an angry frown. Y/n tried to speak, but she couldn't. She just kept staring at him, hoping the words to explain would come.
"Iโ€”It's not what you thinkโ€”"
"You're sick! Sick in the head! I'm calling security. I can't believe this," he said, muttering the last part.
Sniffling, Y/n looked down at the clothes she was supposed to fix up for the boys. Her boys, she sometimes thought. She couldn't believe this was actually happening. Harry was in front of her, and he...he was calling security on her.
"Youโ€”You don't have to do that," she finally said. When she stood up, Harry stepped away from her. "I'll go. I swear. I know how this looks, and I know you won't believe me, but this is a coincidence. But...I'll go. You don't need to call security. I'll leave."
Y/n grabbed her things and the boys' clothes, not looking at Harry once. She couldn't handle seeing the look in his eyes. But she felt it. His glare burned his skin. She shuffled out of the room, head bent with her things in her hands. On her way out, she bumped into something. Someone.
"Woah, June. Is everything okay?"
It was Luke. He looked concerned, but she couldn't find it in him to explain. "I'mโ€”I'm fine. I'm just going to finish this stuff up on the bus, okay? I'll have it done before the show."
Before he could say anything else, she left, trying to ignore what sounded like an argument starting in the room she'd vacated.
Tumblr media
(three hours later)
Y/n was still on the tour bus fixing up the boys' clothes and waiting until it was time for her to leave for the airport. She knew she should've left right away, but she wanted to do this last thing. One last thing, and then she would be gone. It was almost time, and she'd finished cutting up the shirts, now she just needed to write the word 'IDIOT' on Michael's shirt. It was very fitting, Y/n felt like an absolute idiot for ever letting things get this far.
Still, she couldn't help but form a little smile as she sketched out the letters with a pencil. This job wasn't necessarily what Y/n had wanted, but it also wasn't what she initially expected. She liked the 5SOS guys, and she had to admit that there was something adventurous about going to a new city every few days. The point was, she liked it more than she thought she would, and now it was over.
(thirty minutes later)
Harry had been standing in front of the crew's tour bus for ten minutes. He wasn't sure if she was there, and he wasn't sure if he wanted her to be there. But he was standing in front of the bus door anyway, trying to decide if he was going to knock.
He'd been furious. Furious and alarmed and freaked out. When he'd gotten the first text from June, Harry immediately thought that she was some crazed fan who had somehow obtained his number. He slowly realized that wasn't the case, or so he thought. June had been lying this whole time, and not only that, she managed to become a crew member on tour.
When he heard her voice outside Five Seconds of Summer's dressing room, Harry was floored, and then he was scared, and then he was angry. Why couldn't people just leave him alone? It wasn't enough that he performed and gave all these little pieces of himself to the world. Why did everyone expect to give over all of himself?
And he talked to June about that at length, and he thought he was confiding in her, he thought they were sharing with each other. But she was...she was just lying to him.
And yet, she was still June. Months of texting and everything he felt didn't just evaporate because he discovered the truth. She was funny and charismatic and seemed to really like him, and he liked her too. A lot.
It was why he was at the bus. Harry wanted an explanation. He deserved that at least.
It took about a minute for the door to open after he knocked on it. She peeked her head out, watery red eyes surprised, and a little scared, to see him standing there. Mixed emotions flared in Harry's chest at the sight of her. Something squeezed his heart at finally putting a face to all the messages, to the girl he couldn't go more than a day without talking to. June was very pretty with a thick head of hair, high cheekbones, and pouty pink lips. Her nose was red, as if she'd been crying, and the part of Harry that cared about his friend hated seeing her like that, hated to know that this was how their first meeting was turning out. Harry had daydreamed about meeting June for the first time many times. A lot of times. None of his daydreams looked like this.
"Um, I promise I'm leaving. My flight is later tonight, and I just thoughtโ€”It doesn't matter, I'll go."
Harry had met a good number of crazy fans over the years, and while he knew June was one of them, she seemed rather subdued. Instead of jumping him at any possible moment this entire tour, she minded her business and didn't try to talk to him once. Maybe he was believing in something he wanted to believe, but June didn't seem like the crazy stalker fan that she was.
"I want to talk. I want an explanation," he said.
June nodded, not opening the door any further but reaching her hand through the small crack. "I wrote it all down. I was going to give it to someone to give to you. It was the least I could do."
She didn't even want to talk to him? Was this all just an act to gain his sympathy? There was no way of knowing. If this was all one big con, June was a very good actress.
Harry took the note from June and unfolded it, reading it carefully.
H,
I just want to start off by saying that you have every right to be angry, I understand that I have betrayed your trust. And I have betrayed your trust, just not in the way that you might think.
I found out who you were a few days ago, it was why I was avoiding your texts. I'd overheard you talking to Michael and the other boys in their dressing room. It was right after we'd sent all our voice messages, and I just knew it was you who was behind the door. I couldn't quite believe it.
But I also didn't know how to tell you that I knew. I was shocked and confused...and to be honest I didn't know what to do with the information. I just...wasn't expecting you.
So I kept the secret for a little while I tried to figure out how to tell you, and...Well, you saw how that turned out.
I just want you to know that I had no idea who you were when we first started texting. I truly gave my number to some idiot that I slept with, and by some twist of fate, he gave me your number instead. I didn't want to text you, I didn't want to like you, I didn't...expect to share so much of myself with you. I know this is harder on you for so many reasons, and you are justified in not trusting me, but it was hard for me too. Part of me thought that if I told you and you saw me, really saw me, that you would be disappointed or not impressed or something like that. You mean meant mean a lot to me, and the thought of ruining our tentative friendship by us meeting scared me, so I foolishly thought I could avoid you the rest of the tour.
I'm sorry that you found out the way you did, and I'm sorry it caused you so much emotional pain. I know you probably won't trust anything I've said, but I hope this might help you understand. And with the hope that I don't come off as the obsessed stalker that you already think I am, I really did do like you, and all your secrets are safe with me, as I hope mine are with you.
All my love,
Yours,
Sincerely,
Best wishes,
June Bug
Harry looked read the letter once, then twice, then looked up at June, who was still hiding behind the bus door. It had closed that much more, like she was trying to shut him out.
He knew he had a right not to trust her, and part of him still didn't. But another him was pushing her toward him, drawing him to her. His gut was telling him to hear her out, that she was the June Bug from all of their messages.
His show was in a little over an hour. He had last minute things to do and pre-show rituals to complete, and he knew that people would start looking for him soon. But he didn't want to go.
"Canโ€”Can I come in?" he found himself asking. "To talk?"
June's brows raised, like she wasn't quite expecting Harry to ask her that. Which was a valid thing to think, of course, but now he was hoping she would let him in. Or send him away so they could avoid a difficult conversation.
"Sure. Are youโ€”Are you sure?" she asked him, thick brows furrowing. Harry would've found the wrinkle between them cute if it wasn't for the situation.
Was he sure? "Yโ€”Yes."
Nodding, June opened the door further to let him inside. Harry's hand brushed against hers on his way past her, and she immediately recoiled. He ignored it, and looked down at her for the first time. Really looked at her.
She really was beautiful, there was no denying that. June had a kind face, one that held so much emotion in it. Harry felt like he could read every little feeling as it flitted across her face. And right now, she was looking at him like one word out of his mouth could make or break her. Unable to handle that kind of pressure, Harry focused on a little scar that cut into June's brow.
"Um, so obviously you're familiar with the layout of the bus. Do you want to sit at the couches in the back? Or the tables here, or we could just standโ€”"
"The couches are fine," Harry said.
โ€œOโ€”Okay. Couches it is."
June turned around and headed for the back of the bus, strands of her hair swishing with each step she took. Harry followed, wondering if he'd just made a huge mistake or was taking a risk worth taking.

Deep Dive into Alastor's Situation
Tumblr media
So we all remember this bit in Finale, where Alastor has a breakdown about his situation and deal correct? He wants to find a loophole so he can be back in control.
I've seen a lot of theories regarding how Alastor is feeling in this moment and what his deal could involve, but thus far they've all sort of missed something crucial. Alastor's power.
Alastor is highly disturbed by the fact that he almost died, let alone dying to protect people. He is freaked out that the deal has made him do this, whether as part of the deal itself or as a means to get back some semblance of control he had before the deal was struck.
Either way, based on what he says in this moment about wanting to find a loophole in order to unclip his wings
: "The constraints of my deal surely have a back door. Once I figure out how to unclip my wings, guess who will be pulling all the strings"
We can hazard a guess and say that this deal, despite us initially believing gave him power, has probably actually taken it away. Having one's wings clipped usually entails that someone is on a leash and cannot fully extend themselves.
This means that Alastor, as well as being forced into helping the hotel, has had his power taken away.
Now I do not say this lightly, I also think that this is the case because of Alastor's fight with Adam.
We all know Alastor likes to be in control, and in order to be in control, one must not overestimate another without the possibility of the loss of that control. Now, you could say that is exactly what happened in his fight with Adam, but that wouldn't necessarily warrant the reaction toward his deal the way he does in the song. If that were the case, Alastor would likely be more angry at himself than be panicked about his deal.
Therefore, we can guess that Alastor did not overestimate Adam, but rather himself. This means that at some point, he quite possibly did have the power to take out an angel but does not anymore. The fact that he is so surprised that Adam broke his mic that we can hear his true voice means that he expected to be able to block that attack.
Tumblr media
This all comes back to the idea that Alastor has lost power through whatever deal he made. Which in turn makes us ask the question:
What did Alastor get in return?
If he lost enough power to the point he thought he could beat Adam and couldn't, what did he want so badly that he felt the need to sell his soul and power away?
I have no idea
BUT, I have thoughts.
I have seen theories saying that perhaps Alastor made this deal while he was alive, and he sold his soul to gain power while living. This, while possible, doesn't necessarily match up with what we know about his character.
Alastor is conniving. He's brilliant. He's a serial killer. He knows and understands nuance like the back of his hand. With how much time he spent in hell (he died in the 30s and according to the wiki, Katie Killjoy died in 1992 ((Helluva Boss also takes place in the 21st century but we don't know yet if Helluva Boss is canon to Amazon's Hazbin Hotel)) Alastor would have had ample time to figure out loopholes in his deal.
No, his deal definitely happened at some point during his seven-year absence, likely near the end for the same reason as the previous. Which, again, all connects back to Lillith, which means our likely culprit for this deal is Lillith OR the person responsible for Lillith's disappearance if not Lillith herself.
This all brings us back to two questions:
What deal did Alastor make?
What did he gain from it?

Day Six - Hybrids | Cuddling
-
Roier finds out that Cellbit is a cat hybrid literal seconds after finding out that Cellbit used to be a serial killer, because, apparently, those two things are the most important secrets in Cellbit's life.
Cellbit's cute little straw hat is off for the first time all day, and his hair sticks to his forehead- sweaty from a day of partying with everybody else at the Favela.
Roier's breath catches because right there in front of him for the very first time are two cat ears the same color as Cellbit's hair. They're ragged, torn in some places and nicked and with small chunks missing, and they twitch nervously- pressing themselves down towards Cellbit's skull- as Roier doesn't say anything.
Cellbit wrings his hat in his hands and pointedly looks anywhere but at Roier.
"It's just... hard, you know?" he quietly asks. "I'm not in prison anymore, but old habits die hard, I guess."
And, really, Roier should be more concerned about the fact that his fiancรฉ is a literal serial killer. That is, objectively, really fucking concerning. Like, what if he relapses or something and starts murdering the shit out of everybody on the island starting with Roier himself? That's stuff he should be concerned about, right?
But, for whatever reason, all Roier can think of is the fact that, every time he and Cellbit have met up, Cellbit has had his goggles on.
"Hey," Roier softly says.
He reaches out for Cellbit's hands, freezes inches away, lets out a breath and properly takes them. The hat falls to the floor, settling on Roier's feet; the goggles attached to it bump against Roier's leg, ever-present.
Cellbit's breath catches, and his hands instinctively grip Roier's tightly. His ears perk up in surprise- absolutely adorable, what the fuck?
His voice is reverent: "Guapito..."
"Gatinho," Roier warmly replies. He smiles as Cellbit's eyes dart up to meet his; now that Roier knows to look, he notices the way Cellbit's pupils are less round than they should be and more, well... catlike. "Muy lindo..."
Cellbit flushes and tears his eyes away, ears flattening again.
"That's the problem," he says. "I'm not cute. I'm a killer."
"Sรญ." Roier nods seriously. "But you know what else?"
"What?"
"That's fine. You don't have to be cute. You can just be handsome. And sexy."
Cellbit cracks a small smile at that, face going even more red.
He's beautiful. Roier can't believe that he gets to marry him. His hands are rough, and he's covered in scars, and he has the sweetest smile, and he has cat ears that automatically swivel towards Roier every time he speaks.
With a quiet little 'mrrp'-ing noise, Cellbit lets his head fall forward onto Roier's shoulder. The tips of his ears graze Roier's cheek just momentarily, and they're so soft that Roier's mind goes blank outside of thoughts of Gatinho Gatinho Gatinho Gatinho.
Roier is brought back to reality by a weird little rumbling sound that he realizes is purring.
"Eu te amo," Cellbit murmurs, voice distorted by his purring.
He's just so easy with the verbal stuff, Roier doesn't know how he does it. Just thinking about telling Cellbit he loves him is enough to make Roier's heart stop and his blood boil and freeze and his face flush and his stomach fall out of his ass and his lungs explode. It shuts his brain down, but Cellbit? He's so good at it! (And he says he doesn't know how romance works, tsk tsk.)
Roier, unable to verbalize the billions and trillions of words flying around in his heart, just presses a hesitant kiss into the crown of Cellbit's head and hopes that it gets his affections across. It should, because Cellbit already knows Roier better than Roier might know himself, but-
A bashful kiss against the side of Roier's neck.
Roier swoons, just barely catching himself from melting into a gooey little puddle on the floor. He's gotta look goofy, he can feel how wide and ridiculous his smile is, but who the hell cares?
"Do you have a tail, too?" he hears himself asking, mind a million miles away. He can just picture himself and Cellbit kissing at the altar- their first ever real kiss ever- and just the thought of it makes his knees weak.
"Mhmm," Cellbit responds. He yawns against Roier's throat. "But you'll have to wait until our honeymoon for that."
Oh, God, the implications of that... Cellbit isn't into sex, and that's cool, but they'll be sharing a bed. A bed!!
The thought of finally getting to sleep with Cellbit (in the proper way, of course) makes Roier giddy enough to giggle into thin air.
"It's a date!" he happily says.
(A week later when they're finally in bed together for the first time, Roier spends a solid fifteen minutes properly admiring his husband(!!!)'s hybrid features for the first time, much to Cellbit's embarrassment.
"You're ridiculous," Cellbit whines, face hidden in his hands as Roier gently scratches him between the ears. He might sound annoyed, but he's purring, and his tail has already wrapped around both of Roier's legs, and he keeps dragging Roier's hand back every time he tries pulling away, so there.
"Maybe," Roier admits. He moves two of Cellbit's fingers away to kiss his forehead. "But you love me, anyway."
Cellbit doesn't argue, because he does.)

New helluva boss episode is out, any thoughts?
Season 1 Fizz: Robo Fizz was mean and called children ugly. Real Fizz called his guests โ€œfreaksโ€. Called Moxie an "ugly little bitch". Bragged about his fame and the money made off his robots and was even really pissed off his robot was destroyed at that theme park and wanted to sue
Season 2 Fizz: Extremely insecure, extremely nervous, hates the robots produced in his image, never bad mouths anyone and is really kind and nice to his competition, knows ASL and gives inspiration to childrenย 
Who on earth is this guy???? Youโ€™re not Fizz??? By god, sheโ€™s done it again! Another male main character has been uwuified!!ย ๐Ÿ˜ฐWhen will it end???
~~~
Mammon: โ€œYouโ€™ll be like the son I never had!โ€ Fizz is elated at this, but Blitzโ€™s dad already treated Fizz like the son he never had? Literally gave him a card saying he wished Fizz was his son. He was treated super well and was the most beloved within his circus. I mean, he did lose that, and him explaining everything he has is because of Mammon, and so I get it, he has an attachment to all this. I like that we are expanding on his character, but I feel like its overdone. The insecurity is a little too much. The panic attacks are a little too much. (Dude lost his arms and legs in a freak fire accident and its a creepy fan that he probably has to deal with on a daily basis that sets him off? I feel like he would be a tad bit mentally and physically stronger to deal with. I mean, he fricken talked back to STRIKER, a serial killer holding him for ransom locked in a cage last episode??? But he freezes up when an annoying fan criticizes him? Just feels inconsistent.)ย 
Mammon saying โ€œIf youโ€™re a chick, give up on your dreams, because woman ainโ€™t funnyโ€ and then Vivziepopโ€™s name appearing in the cornerโ€ฆ thereโ€™s so much to unpack there. I think Viv meant it as like โ€œIโ€™m a woman, so I can write that joke!โ€ or โ€œIโ€™m a woman, who wrote this show and is therefore funny so Mammon is wrong and it's ironic!โ€ But it's been established that Viv neglects and mistreats her female characters. Theyโ€™re either all bitches or cardboard cut outs whose entire existences revolve around a male character. Itโ€™s low-key sexist. On top of the fact that, Viv may not actually be funny because most of the actually funny jokes in the show were written by Adam and Brandon, who are both men. So its VERY ironic, but not in the way she believes it to be.ย 
The irony of Mammon hiring an Imp who idolizes him only to exploit him and treat him like garbageโ€ฆ werenโ€™t their exworkers of spindle horse that felt that way?ย 
Some people think that Fizzโ€™s creepy fan is like.. Vivโ€™s poke at her critics but I donโ€™t see a comparison at all. This guy is a super super big fan that wants to work with Fizz, which isnโ€™t what the Viv critics want. Iโ€™m pretty sure thatโ€™s the whole point- is that they want nothing to do with her? So Iโ€™m pretty sure this guy just represents a creepy fan, which everyone gets. Like a Syndrome character.ย 
Also in season 1, Blitz killed imps left and right for Stolas, but when that fan is actually getting close to Fizz and threatening his life, Blitz doesnโ€™t kill him on site. He just hits him with a gun. Thank goodness he kills him later but Blitz has never really been discreet. It was just weird forced timing I guess. Season 1 Blitz would have never hesitated. He would have killed that guy on site.
I will never get over Asmodeusโ€™s weird coat, his anatomy changes with whatever heโ€™s wearing lkdsgjldkfjย 
Tumblr media
Mammon and Fizz are pretty much just Valentino and Angel Dustย , but no physical exploitation (other than his robo replicas)
The Glam and Glitz sisters are really cool Iโ€™m obsessed with their performance, but we go right back to Vivโ€™s 2 types of women: bitches. Theyโ€™re bitches to each other too. Theyโ€™re sisters who have like amazing choreography and on stage chemistry, and yet they constantly fight, likeโ€ฆ how do they even functionย 
ALSO THEY GOT TOM HARDY TO SING HEโ€™S NARRATING THE COMPETITION YOU GOT THE INTERNETโ€™S FAMOUS MUSICAL COMEDIAN TO SING A SONG FOR YOUR โ€œCOMEDYโ€ SHOW WHERE THE SONG ISNโ€™T EVEN FUNNY It looks like he wrote it himself butโ€ฆ if even Tom canโ€™t make it funny then who can???? Iโ€™m mad on his behalfย 
Alsoโ€ฆ the ASL imp
Tumblr media
โ€ฆ. โ€œI want to be a clown just like you! : D โ€œ Fizz: Exploited for money as a clown ever since he was young, gained a boatload of insecurity because his boss was so pushy, forced to deal with sexual encounters, sold his likeness into a popular sex doll without actually wanting to, lost his arms and legs in a freak fire accident because the circus tents arenโ€™t safe- Also Fizz: โ€œYou can do whatever you want to : ) โ€œ This would have been a sweet moment if this wasnโ€™t Helluva Boss!!!!!! This is Hell!!! what on earth are you doing Viv!!!! Kid pls do literally anything else with your lifeย  Also how and why does Fiz know ASL
Ozzie and Fizzie getting a love song is cheesy you know, butโ€ฆ. Stolas X Blitz fans wish manโ€ฆ they WISH Oz x FIz is literally just the better Stolas x Blitz. Like this what the Stolitz fans want but its given to the side characters for some reason. Fizzโ€™s end song was nice but All our main characters are just so flat Sad uwu special sweeties that have done nothing wrong... I'm just so sad to see them become former shadows of their badass selves. Our main characters were greedy, selfish, mean, sometimes creepy assholes. Now they're not. It was either an accident, they're hypocrites, or they were abused- and im like... this is Hell, can't we still have our main demon characters be assholes? I'm so curious what the explanation is gonna be for Blitz x Verosika. Is she gonna be framed as the bitch who ruined the relationship? Did Blitz "accidentally" steal her car and credit card because he was drunk? Like what else are we gonna strip away so he's "relatable"?
Nice to see Wally Wackford back I missed himย 
I like how fiery Ozzโ€™s design gets Ozzie confessing he loves Fizz to an entire crowd so all of Hell knows and everyone is like โ€œOMG I KNEW IT! GOOD FOR THEM!โ€ Being with a low class demon was something to be ashamed of. A power imbalance. Something seen as taboo in Hell. Now we have 3 top sin embodiments dating the lowest of low class in Hell and not only do people not care negatively, theyโ€™re happy for them. Thereโ€™s no stakes. Our main characters can do whatever they want โ€œYouโ€™re gonna regret revealing that Ozz!โ€ how who are you gonna tell? the romance police? fricken Now we have Mammon! Add him to the reoccurring villains I guess!!!! yeeshย 
(Clowns are apparently also likeโ€ฆ influencers in this world for some reason???? I still don't understand Vivziepop's clown obsession I think this is just not my jurisdictionย )
All things considered, not a bad episode for season 2, but im kinda at the point where I don't think helluva boss is gonna deliver anything outside of abused main characters with cute relationships I don't think they're gonna do anything else

Lady Slashers Meeting their girlfriend
Includes: Baby Firefly, Amanda Young, Amber Freeman
Warnings: saw trap, hinting at kidnap
A/n I have the biggest crush on Baby
Tumblr media
- You met Baby when you were hitchhiking through Texas. You had been trying to make your way home to whatever state you live in and somehow found yourself standing next to Baby. โ€œHey there! Where ya heading?โ€ She giggles. โ€œJust trying to make it home to (your state).โ€ You respond. After you guys make conversation, she realizes sheโ€™s taken a liking to you. She invites you over for the night. You accept and when a car pulls up to give you a ride you both get in together.
- When you make it to her house she offers you a cup of hot chocolate, which you accept happily. Baby sits next to you on the couch in the living room and turns on the TV. You arenโ€™t really paying attention to the movie playing. Your more interested in how cool her house is. Itโ€™s like a museum of oddities and curiosity! โ€œI love your house Baby, itโ€™s truly amazing.โ€ You say looking at her. Her eyes light up! โ€œThank you sugar, thatโ€™s so sweet.โ€ She smiles.
- After an hour or so you guys decide to head to bed. Baby insists you sleep in her room with her. Which you absolutely donโ€™t mind. Her room is just as๏ฟผ eccentric as the rest of the house. You can tell she really loves baby dolls. โ€œReady for bed sugar? I got extra blankets just in case ya got cold.โ€ Baby says. You nod and thank her. โ€œWhich side of the bed do you want?โ€ You ask. She laughs at this question. โ€œI donโ€™t care honey. Iโ€™ll sleep anywhere as long as Iโ€™m sleeping with you.โ€ She smirks playfully. You can feel your face heating up. Baby slips under the covers on the left side of the bed as you take the right. You both stay silent for a few minutes but baby takes the roll in ruining said silence. โ€œYa knowโ€ฆwe could cuddle if ya like to.โ€ She turns to face you. You guys are inches away from each other, you can feel her breath on your face. She smells like liquor and hot chocolate. A mixture you normally wouldnโ€™t like, but coming from her you donโ€™t mind. โ€œOkay..I wouldnโ€™t mind that.โ€ You can feel yourself turning a bright red. She slips her hand over your waist and pulls you towards her. Baby letโ€™s out a soft sigh as she closes her eyes to fall asleep. As she falls asleep first you follow shortly after.
- The next day you guys get to know each other better. Learning all her likes a dislikes, meeting her brothers and her mama. You and mama get along very well. You stay with the family for a few days really feeling at home and at peace with Baby. However, all good things must come to an end. โ€œI really should get back home Baby.โ€ You say softly one day as you girls are laying in bed. She sits up immediately. โ€œWhat! Why? I thought ya liked it here sweetheart.โ€ She pouts. โ€œI want to stay but what about my life and my responsibilities?โ€ You tell her as you rub small circles on her hand. Baby thinks for a moment about what to say. โ€œYou can make a life here. Iโ€™m not letting you leave me. I want to be with you and I know you want to be with me.โ€ She says in almost a dark tone. You had to be honest with yourself, it scared you seeing her like this but also made you feel safe knowing how much she cherishes you. โ€œWell I suppose if you wonโ€™t let me leave Iโ€™m stuck here, with youโ€ฆwhich isnโ€™t so bad I guess.โ€ You smile. Babyโ€™s whole demeanor changes, sheโ€™s full of happiness and love again. Without much warning she leans in and kisses your lips. You of course accept the kiss graciously, kissing her back.
- After a month of living with the family you and Baby officially started dating. By this time you had found out their dirty little secrets. You couldnโ€™t do much about it, yes you loved Baby but she did tell you that you couldnโ€™t leave her.
Tumblr media
- You had seen on the news about how there was a serial killer on the loose called Jigsaw. You were never to worried youโ€™d run into him, I mean you were a nobody really. All you did was go to work and come home, on the rare occasion youโ€™d go out with a few girlfriends but never often. Thatโ€™s actually how all this started, you had just started walking home from the bar when someone in a pig mask came out of nowhere, stabbing you in the neck with something. After that assault you quickly started to get drowsy, within seconds you were fast asleep. When you awoke you found yourself bond to a chair, as your hands had been duct taped to the arms. On your head was a metal contraption. When you started to panic a TV in the corner turned on only to show a puppet. This puppet explained that he simply wanted to โ€œplayโ€ a game. You have 60 seconds to free yourself from the reverse bear trap, as he called it, or it would permanently open your jaw. As in your head would be torn apart. To escape this trap you had to remove the key to the lock keeping it on you from a manโ€™s stomach. Before you could truly take all of this in the TV cut off leaving you to start your game. As soon as you escaped the chair a timer started. You frantically tried the get the bear trap off without a key, it wouldnโ€™t budge. You knew what you had to do. When you had finished getting the key and getting the trap off just in time, you passed out. Awaking to the fluorescent lights๏ฟผ of a hospital room.
- Yes, you had survived the trap but you had been absolutely terrified of everything since that day. You were more great full for life, sure, you still always looked behind your shoulder and locked every door you entered. After a month or so you slowly started getting back into the groove of things. Which must be some cruel joke the universe was playing on you because as soon as things started to seem okay, you meet John. Who, as you came to know was behind the traps and murders. Though, he claims he never murdered anyone. John wanted you to help him with his work, make the traps, kidnap the people. You of course wanted absolutely nothing to do with that. You werenโ€™t a psychopath who enjoyed hurting people. You loved people. However you didnโ€™t have much of a choice.
- You had joined Johns team of apprentices, which is where you met her. Amanda Young. At first she really didnโ€™t seem to like you all that much. Sheโ€™d do anything in her power to absolutely avoid you. At first you took it personally but then you saw how she treated Mark. In that case you were thankful for how she treated you. Slowly you started to get her to open up. Saying hi to her when you would come in to work on traps or clean up the warehouse. Grabbing her a coffee when you got one for yourself. Eventually you two started to hangout even outside of working for John.
- After a while of constantly spending time with her you realized how much you liked her. You started to wonder if, maybe, she felt the same towards you. Thatโ€™s when you decided to ask her one night. You guys normally hung out at your apartment, watching movies and eating unhealthy snacks. You let her choose the movie. As you guys were sitting on the couch, laying on opposite sides. You sat up, paused the movie and looked at her. โ€œMandy, I have something to tell you and ask you.โ€ You state while looking down at your hands. Whatโ€™s wrong? Did something happen!?โ€ She questions with a worried expression. โ€œWhat..no everything is fine donโ€™t worry. I just. I wanted to tell you that, I have serious feelings for you and I was wondering if maybe you spelt the same.โ€ You look up at her with a red face. For a moment she stays silent, which you internally start panic. โ€œI-itโ€™s okay! Letโ€™s just forget I said anything.โ€ You reach for the TV remote with was laying close to her. You lean over to get it and she grabs your face planting a kiss directly on your soft lips. Of course your taken completely off guard, not in a bad way though. After a second of pure bliss she ends the kiss. โ€œI have feelings for you too y/n I was just scared Iโ€™d lose you if I said anything.โ€ Amanda says shyly.
- You two officially started dating that night.
Tumblr media
Amber Freeman
- You had just moved to Woodsboro, and were very nervous starting at a new high school. Yeah, you were a senior but it was still scary. The first day you started you bumped into a girl named Amber, at first you thought she may yell at you as she looked so intimidating. Yet all she did was smile and tell you itโ€™s not a problem. In your last class of the day you saw a familiar face upon the unfamiliar setting. It was Amber sitting alone in the back of the class. You made your way to her and asked if you might sit next to her. She happily made space for you. Over the next month you two become good friends. Exchanging numbers as to keep contact even outside of the class. She texted you good morning and goodnight everyday. Amber made you feel wanted and safe, no one would fuck with her or you. Even her friend group liked you.
- You guys would usually hangout all together as a group but there were times when she just wanted to be alone with you. Sheโ€™d treat you to a horror movie or sneak over late at night. Amber just loved alone time with you, where she knew you were completely hers. You started to notice little hints that she liked you. Such as when sheโ€™d hold your hand when you guys watch scary movies, or how she got very jealous whenever you talked to other girls. There are even times where sheโ€™d rest her hand on your leg while you guys ate lunch in the cafeteria.
- One night at a party you both had been glued to each other all night. You found yourself cuddling with her on the couch and watching whatever was on TV. She was sitting up, you were in her lap and she was playing with your hair. You canโ€™t remember the last time you felt this happy. After a while of this she suddenly stopped and told you to look at her. Confused, you did as she said. Sitting up you looked at her with tired eyes. โ€œIs everything okay?โ€ You questioned. Sheโ€™s nods in response. โ€œThereโ€™s something I need to ask you y/n, Iโ€™ve been thinking about it for a few weeks.โ€ Amber says looking into your eyes. โ€œWhat is it? You can ask me anything.โ€ You say. She stays silent for a moment, thinking. โ€œI want you to be my girlfriend. I really, really like you and I want you to be mind.โ€ She says while looking down. You canโ€™t believe what you just heard. You almost donโ€™t at first thinking maybe you did fall asleep and this is a dream. โ€œOf course Iโ€™ll be your girlfriend!โ€ You softly yell. Her whole face lights up and she smiles. Leaning in you kiss her on the lips softly while cupping her face with your hands.

If it's alright with you, can you write the lin kuei trio with a s/o, who is a detective tracking down a serial killer who is going to target s/o and the lin kuei trio's reaction to it.
I can confidently say I have never gotten a request like this
Tumblr media
Handle it or he's handling itย 
It's as simple as thatย 
Did Bi-Han let his own father die? Yes. But for whatever reason he didn't fuck with himย 
I'm assuming he fucks with you though, so the thought of someone hunting you down is not something he's very fond ofย 
I don't think he'd have any strong feelings about you being a detective. Not everyone can be out and about fighting people from other realms. Some people gotta do some protective work for the smaller peopleย 
So you being a detective is whatever to him
When you say you're hunting down a serial killer, I don't think he'd have any strong emotions either. He just assumes you'll catch them soon. His faith is pretty highย 
When it's revealed the serial killer is hunting you, that obviously becomes a big problemย 
A problem he has to solveย 
If you're like โ€œNo Bi-Han! I got it! Let me find them and end this!โ€ he'll consider giving you a set amount of time before he handles itย 
Doesn't know how he's gonna track this unknown person down but his faith in himself is stupidly highย 
If you find them and lock whoever up then great for youย 
If the agreed time passes and they're still on the loose, he becomes Batman. Get out the way. He got itย 
No point in protesting either. Just sit at home and let him figure it outย 
He becomes the annoying boss in police movies. Y'all know what I meanย 
Definitely finds the person eventually and finishes the job for youย 
Hooray?
Tumblr media
Honestly I think all the brothers are a โ€œhandle it or I'll handle itโ€ caseย 
Thoughts on you being a detective are positive. I think he can see how difficult that certain job would beย 
He's fighting with his fists. You're using your brain. You're both helping people.ย 
He admires it lowkeyย 
You're hunting down a serial killer now? Ok. Be safe-
What do you mean you're a target now?
He kinda saw it coming but it's still unfortunateย 
He'd understand still wanting to lead this case and he applauds standing your ground, but he's also worried because ya know, you could be killedย 
He'd try to assist but at some point he would really want you to let someone else handle itย 
By someone else, he means himย 
He's a trained assassin. He can probably hunt this guy faster than you canย 
Has more patience than Bi-Han but if a lot of time passes and they're not handled, then he'll step inย 
He probably would've warned you beforehand that this was something that would happen but as we can see, you either didn't listen or still slipped upย 
It's not that he thinks you can't handle itโ€ฆ kinda.ย 
You're just not moving quick enoughย 
I think heโ€™d be nice enough to remind you he has faith in you but would vocalize his concerns when it comes to you still working on this caseย 
Whether or not you decide to drop it is up to you, but heโ€™s definitely notย 
Tumblr media
Thoughts on you being a detective I think are also positive
He thinks you're doing a good thing
The Lin Kuei can't help everyone. They do more bigger thingsย 
So you helping civilians is great to him. It's a good causeย 
I think he'd also enjoy hearing about your cases and chiming in wheneverย 
Hunting down a serial killer? Well, he guesses someone has to do itย 
He'd be confident enough in your abilities to catch this personย 
But then you're the next target
I think honestly all the brothers would have a similar reaction. So much so, I don't think there'd be much of a change. I probably could've written this in one paragraphย 
He could possibility be the most cooperative when it comes to letting you handle it
Gives you the most time to figure it out and tries to help out as a partnerย 
Doesnโ€™t wanna step on your toes but if youโ€™re taking too long, heโ€™s gonna do his own investigatingย 
Probably asks Kuai Liang for assistanceย 
Iโ€™m not saying any of them would find this person in days time, but they certainly believe they willย 
Worried about your safety as you could imagine, so he wants you to sit this one outย 
Heโ€™s probably conflicted, like what I said with Kuai Liang. One part is like โ€œyeah, you gotta find this person!โ€ And the other is like โ€œyou need to sit down so youโ€™ll be safeโ€
Probably prefers for you to do all your investigating at home. Any leads you have youโ€™ll either follow together, heโ€™ll follow it, or someone else willย 
I think all the brothers will want to help as much as they could and would wanna handle this serial killer. And by handle, I donโ€™t mean letting them go to prison. You can get out of that if you play your cards rightย 
The only real difference is how much they let you help after they find out youโ€™re a targetย 
Bi-Han is like โ€œI gave you time. Youโ€™re done. I got itโ€. Kuai Liang is โ€œI knew this would happen and I know you wanna stand your ground, but maybe take a step downโ€ and Tomas is โ€œI get it so let me helpโ€
This is kinda boo boo. Also I hate their little moodboards I made. Itโ€™s sickening

โŠน pairing: the corinthian x reader
โŠน summary: how your favourite nightmare loves. this is a slightly dark version, as the corinthian is a nightmare. you don't expect someone like him to love someone in a good, pure way, do you?
โŠน warnings: descriptions of violence (eyeball popping), borderline nsfw (in par with his character since his only scenes are either being a serial killer or serial fucker)
โŠน word count: 3193
Tumblr media
๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ฎ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป with a voice that oozes charisma and is thick and sweet like honey, (makes you want to open your mouth to him), you bet words will be the love language he uses in abundance. but is he talking to you sweetly or manipulating you? does it really matter?
morpheus seems to have given the corinthian the verbal skills he himself lacks
this nightmare is a talker. as you can see by how hooked everyone is on his words, from little jed, naive rose, and by inspiring a cult of serial killers, this man knows how to use his looks and his words to get people to do what he wants: to trust him
but the first time he meets you, he is speechless
the person he's talking to and who he was going to kill later that evening, is forgotten as he's too struck to do anything else but look at you curiously. your eyes meet across the room, and the room goes in a bit of a haze as all he can see is you.
obsessed with you immediately, and he doesn't even know why (guess he takes after his creator in having intense, all-consuming relationships)
approaches you and talks to you immediately. in minutes, has your back against a wall, his body covering yours from others and has your attention the entire night. has one hand on the wall beside your head
stands close enough that you can smell his aftershave and woodsy cologne
he has never lathered on as much sweet talk to a person as he did that night to you
by the end of the night, you are as consumed by him as he is by you
he loves to talk to you. domestic bliss with him is him telling you all about his dayโ€”the weather, the news, what he had for lunch
abundance of pet names, but mostly sweetheart, baby, and a little darlingโ€”all said with that slowed, drawl of his that just hearing is enough to make you tense and your breath hitch
enter: praise talk (is this still sfw?)
he'll praise you for every single thing you do, and make it sound like you did it for him. after awhile, you get used to his praises and get hooked on it. you start doing things just to hear him praise you, and don't you worry, he will
he does this thing where he watches you from the side as you do something, then he'll praise you
"i see you for who you truly are." (did i just take out of context the quote he said to serial killers? yes)
builds up your self confidence with an onslaught of compliments and praise
"you look beautiful, darling."
"with that on, everyone in the room will be staring at you and grow envious of me for being with you."
never lets you doubt yourself and your abilities for one second
is actually quite encouraging for whatever your aspirations are. who is he to judge, after all?
the first time you try to take someone's eyeballs, he's standing off to the side, leaning cooly against the wall, his tongue running over his lips from how dry they've become at watching the person he loves doing something he loves. but taking eyeballs is careful work, and you fail. the nerve snaps in half
at the first dismayed sound you release, he's by your side immediately and cupping your face, murmuring reassurances that you did so well for the first time and he's so proud of you
he shows you how proud by taking your hand and placing it over the tent in his pants
the first time you successfully take someone's eyeballs, his praises are said with a voice low and from the back of his throat
"well done, sweetheart."
"you did so good, baby. so good."
he moves in front of you and takes the eyeballs from your hand, but you move your hand away. he's confused at first, but then you raise your other hand towards his shades and remove themโ€”all while looking at him with innocent eyes that have become slightly hooded with lust and adrenaline
he drops to a fucking knee and tilts his head up at you. he looks at you reverently, like you are the only higher being he'd submit to. he holds onto your wrist, more to steady himself than control you, as you bring the eyeball to one of his eyes (or is it still called mouths?), never breaking eye contact all the while
and when he's done, and you kiss away the blood that escapes down his cheek, he rises and kisses you hard and leaving you with no sense of direction but him, him, him
๐—พ๐˜‚๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜๐˜† ๐˜๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฒ the corinthian has always been demanding with your time, but after morpheus is released, he starts bringing you everywhere you go. he doesn't know if it's to keep you safe so morpheus can't take you from him, or him just wanting to spend as much fleeting time as he can with you.
the two of you are stuck to the hip, and it's not you being clingy, but him, not that he'd ever admit it
it's him who insists that he go everywhere with you in case something bad happens?
corruption kink
you're definitely innocent the first time he meets you. but there's something in your eyes that's not quite...right. you're innocent but accepting. too accepting. meaning you'll see a person commit the most atrocious act and still somehow understand them. empathize with them
it turns him on, not gonna lie
takes you with him on his kills
the first time he does, it's a test to see if you'll scream and run away and he has to take your eyeballs
you don't and pass his test
the next few times, you don't do anything. you just stand or sit to the side while he does his usual thing at the office
but one day, he sees it. a glint of interest in your eye. the tilt of your head that tells him you're interested in whatever you're watching and trying to memorize it.
he confirms his suspicions when he beckons you to come over to him with a tilt of his head. he nearly forgets to kill his victim as he's too busy kissing you against the wall
from then on, you alternate
while killing them is more satisfying to him, it's the way you feed him afterwards that makes him willing to let you kill since that intimacy always brings him to his knees
but during off hours when you're both not being an infamous serial killer couple, you both like to sightsee
the corinthian has been to a lot of places in the past hundred years, and has grown to like travelling just so he can experience many countries'โ€ฆdelicacies
you accompany him as you fly business class everywhere. coliseum in rome. great wall of chine. northern lights in iceland
he's also a surprisingly good babysitter
exhibit a: that episode with jed (yes, he was lowkey kidnapping him), showed that he's good at handling them. (he teased jed if he wanted to drive and kept him safe from that one serial killer)
so when the time comes that you ask him to babysit someone with you, he's actually quite good
the kids like and trust him immediately
seeing you with them could give you baby fever, and the smirk on his face tells you he knows what he's doing
he's that cool, laidback dad who lets you do things the other parent doesn't as long as you keep your mouth shut for it
(why am i alternating between nsfw headcanons and dad headcanons?)
๐—ฝ๐—ต๐˜†๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—น ๐˜๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐—ต did you see how firm yet gentle he was with the people he hooked up with? this nightmare will caress you too ruin
caress
that's the only appropriate word to describe how this man touches you. the brush of his knuckles against your cheek while you sit on the edge of the bed while he stands in between your legs
sometimes closes your eyes with the pad of his thumb and gently rubs it
some couples get kisses on the cheek or the forehead
you get them on your eyes
he'll gently close them with the paid of his thumb and rub it slightly. then he presses a soft, lingering kiss against that soft, fragile skin that protects the organ he loves the most
has a thing for pushing you against objects when kissing you (exhibit b: pushes roommate-lover against bed, pushes fake serial killer-lover against wall)
shoves you on the bed before getting on top of you
pushes you against a wall, hands cupping both sides of your face, forcing you to stay still as he kisses his way with you
grows aware that you need oxygen to breathe but he needs your kisses more than you need that
the first time you remove his glasses, he's surprised at how intimate that is, and how he falters at your touch. the first time you do it is also the first time he realizes that his emotions for you surpass lust and he might actually love youโ€”whatever that entails
and when this does happen, he just gets so much more protective of you
and possessive
in public, hand always on your waist
kisses you (with tongue and lip biting) for the entire world and their mother to see
might even kiss you in front of morpheus to show off to his maker what he has and what morpheus doesn't
even with shades on, there's still intense eye contact
it's the way his entire body faces you
does this thing where he stands behind you, his chest warm and flush against your back. crooks a finger around your hair to brush it back, then hovers his lips right next to your ear so you can feel his whispers and it makes you shiver. he then presses a kiss to your neck, as if he's pleased with the reaction he's elicited from you
you know that couple thing where the boy will stand behind a girl and put his hands over hers as he teaches her how to play golf, or do billiards, or during pottery? that's him when teaching you the proper way to pop out an eyeball
his calloused hands wrapping over your soft hands around the hard handle of a knife
that same hand trailing up your arm, down the side of your chest, brushing your waist, then coming to a rest on your hip as he grips you slightly while bending you over
the protectiveness that grows after morpheus is freed, is also laced with a desperation to stay with you
on one hand, he holds out hope that he'll stop morpheus from taking him so he can stay with you. on the other hand, there's a feeling of inevitability and he can feel himself running out of time with you
he becomes softer but firmer with you
each kiss lasting longer than the last
starts to savour you. whispers his last prayers against your skin. draws his apologies on your arms
he stares at you more often, as if trying to commit your face to memory because if he is unmade, it could be centuries that have passed before he is made again. he doesn't know if he'll retain memories of you, but either way, you'll be long gone
and when the time comes that morpheus catches up to him and he is unmade, morpheus is able to feel the genuine love the corinthian had for you
because the corinthian didn't want you to stay with him, but him to stay with you
you become the corinthian's sole redeeming quality, and as you wail and plead against morpheus' coat to bring him back or to unmake you too, morpheus takes pity and grant your wish: which one is up to you to decide
๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐˜๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ what else do you expect a serial killer nightmare to do for the person he loves? kill for them, of course. scaring others is what he was made for anyways
the first time you tell him someone's been giving you some trouble at school or at work, that someone ends up dead with their eyeballs taken out
the corinthian takes you out for dinner in a restaurant directly in front of that someone's apartment. as you eat dinner in front of a window, rather than be engrossed in the flickering candlelights, you focus on the blue and red lights of the police cars and hear the ambulance sirens as they load the dead body up to an ambulance that's heading straight to the morgue
happens every time you tell him about someone giving you trouble, even if it was just them cutting in line by accident. sometimes, he tells you what he did to them. other times, he doesn't
it's no problem to him, really. think of it as you packing him a little...snack
given that he bleeds charisma, parties are a regular occurrence for both of you
he makes you be his plus one to the parties he's invited to, and when you're invited to go to a party, he expects you to ask him to be your plus one as well
always has a hand around your waist during these events
kisses your cheek occasionally
if you're wearing lipstick and you leave a kiss mark against the bottom of his jaw, he won't wipe it away
might even intentionally move his head to the side to expose it, like it's a badge of honour
apart from killing others though, i don't think he'd go out of his way to do much else for you. at least, domestic things.
why would you need to cook if he can just hire a maid? folding laundry? maid. walking the dog? hires someone
but the one thing he always makes sure you do is eat (exhibit c: he asks jed if he wants more ice cream)
whether it's because you're so accepting of his diet or just because he puts a lot importance in eating, meals are the one thing he always looks out that you do correctly
and it's not just ensuring you eat three meals a day
but eating three healthy meals
he cooks for youโ€”whatever you want. hell, he even learns to cook for you. it's the one thing he doesn't hire a maid for
you feed him, he feeds you mindset
always orders more of his meal because he knows you like to take some of his
unless you have a good, healthy reason for going on a diet, he won't entertain it
ice cream after dinner is a must
has your coffee order memorized, and you can trust him to order ahead at a restaurant
always drives you everywhere with a hand on your thigh that slowly creeps up
gives you his suit jacket when he's coldโ€”and that's how you know it's true love
but the biggest act of service he does for you is not bring you to the cereal convention
it's not about not wanting to expose you to serial killers, but rather morpheus
though he hopes that he might walk out, on the event that he doesn't, he breaks his need to bring you everywhere and keep you at home
all so you don't see him be unmade, as he fears it will break you
and it would have
his last act of love to you
๐—ด๐—ถ๐—ณ๐˜ ๐—ด๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด have you seen the expensive suits he always wears? this man lavishes himself and his serial killer lifestyle, so he'll do the same for you
like his creator, this man is a giver. it might be one of the things morpheus put from himself in him
if he can dress in an expensive suit everyday all while maintaining its pristine state given his...lifestyle, then he expects the same from you too
introducing: matching outfits
you wouldn't think he's one for it, but he is. maybe not identical, but in a cool, stylish way that makes it clear the two of you are meant to be seen together and as one
suits or dresses that compliments his outfits
and it's not you matching to him, but the other way
he wants to match with you
he always waits for you to get ready and pick out an outfit first before going through his closet and finds a suit that matches
and jewellery
he strikes me as someone who wants to give his partner jewellery for them to wearโ€”his way of marking them, so make sure to always wear one
necklace (choker), anklet, belt, hair accessory, ring
always watches you put it on. he likes its when he's the one putting it on, but falls to his knees (is his knees okay?) when you ask him to help you put it on
you need help putting your necklace on? turn around and he'll brush a finger down the nape of your neck, enjoying the way you shiver, as he clasps the necklace and places a kiss where the metal and your skin meets
might even leave a hickey
and if you wear socks or stockings, he'll drop to his knees (there he goes again) and slowly rolling the fabric up your legs, going higher and higher. kisses your inner things while he's there. his hands keeps climbing and climbing until his hand reaches yourโ€”
ahem.
black card user
"you want to go shopping? take my card, baby."
when the bill goes to his phone for what you bought, he sends you a text praising you for using it and says he can't wait to see you try it on
and if it's lingerie, he might ask for a photo and tell you to come home so he can see and take it offโ€”
sets aside a trust for you
you get to take advantage of his lavish lifestyle. you don't really own a home, but instead live out for a few months at a time in various five star hotels before moving on
and if you do bring up settling down, he'll just smile at you and explain patiently why he can't settle down and why he wouldn't be able to bear being so far away from you for such long periods of time.
"i can't live that far from you, baby. can you live without me for that long?"
and how can you argue with that logic?
so you stay with him. and he gives you presents to praise your "choice"
yes, he loves to give you gifts. but more important, he wants you to love them
he likes seeing the special containers you put the jewellery he gifts you in and how you handle them so carefully, as if treating them as an extension of him and his love for you
and when you lose him, they are all that remains of him
and perhaps morpheus takes pity on you as he sees the genuine love you have for him
he uses his sand to recreate a better version of the corinthian using one of the objects he gave you
then maybe it's your turn to corrupt this new corinthian to change him back into the version you know and love
and that's okay
in conclusion, while i might not have been in love with mr. mouths-for-eyes, writing this headcanon and witnessing my eventual failure from keeping sfw might have changed my mind. he does, after all, have a very nice voice...

Not the sender for the original ask but I'm sorry I cannot help but imagine an alternative where the reader summoning Rosie is the most angsty teen ever.
They're imagining the stereotypical giant red demon with goat legs and horns- but instead there is just a pretty lady and Rosie is CONCERNED because there is a teenager in the attic of their house summoning demons, not because of any normal reason but because whatever could a child need a demon for? Do they need help? Auntie Rosie will help!
Summoning a demon but instead of taking your soul you just get adopted. If you take this seriously (you don't have to) add as much angst as you wish.
Good evening my dear! Sorry this took forever to get out! It got buried in my drafts
I added a knockoff slasher dude solely to murk the reader because, I don't know as a plot for death?? I don't remember my thoughts when sleep deprived I'm so sorry
Anyways Auntie Rosie supremacy,
Tumblr media
Rosie & reader
Platonic
Warnings!!
This isn't my best work, it was written late at night when I was mildly delusional, death, stereotypical slasher dude, OOC
Tumblr media
You were home alone, sat in your dark and gloomy attic surrounded by lit candles, a book you had stolen from a shady book shop was open in your hands and you had drawn a summoning circle in red paint from the dollar store.
You took a deep breath before reading out the incantation written in the book, fully prepared for something grotesque to crawl out.
Wind came forth swirling around you as the circle glowed, the sound of the wind was almost deafening, you could feel your sweater clinging onto your skin, each loose thread itching your skin
You tried your best to ignore it as you continued chanting as something rose from the circle.
Once you had finished the spell you shut your eyes as the wind winded down.
"Oh my! You're quite young aren't cha'!"
Your eyes opened as you looked up, instead of some grotesque creature with blood and horns hanging off of it, was a lady,
Her skin was gray, she was dressed in early 1900's fashion and her eyes were pitch black, like a endless void.
"Are you going to say anything or are you just going to sit there with your mouth open catchin' flies?"
She said with an eyebrow raised.
"I, shit, I'm sorry I wasn't expecting someone so pretty? I was expecting more-"
"Well aren't you a charmer! Allow me to guess, You were expecting someone more demonic looking?"
You nodded, "Yeah,"
The woman tilted her head ever so slightly,
"Well aren't you going to introduce yourself?"
This felt like a trap, what if giving your name to her would give her control of you like a fae? Probably not, but what if it was?
"Likewise, it's a pleasure! You can call me Auntie Rosie!"
"I'm [Name], nice to meet you?"
"Auntie Rosie?"
You weren't expecting the creature you summoned to be a pretty cannibal named Rosie, let alone for her to adopt you as a surrogate nibling, telling you to call her Auntie Rosie and nothing else.
She had to leave soon after you summoned her because she had 'overlord duties ' and 'A town to run' but she told you to summon her again soon.
And so you did, the next time Rosie tutted at the messy attic, saying that you should tidy up the area more if you were going to invite guests over, she asked you to grab some cleaning supplies.
You snuck down into the hall, leaving Rosie alone for a moment, you were as quiet as a mouse as you tiptoed past your sleeping suspected serial killer of a godfather, managing to make it to the kitchen to grab a few cleaning supplies and a broom before sneaking back.
Rosie hummed as she began moving boxes around, shaking her head at the amount of dust and other things that littered the floor.
"I'm back, I got a broom, dustpan, and some Clorox wipes," you say as your head popped up from the entrance,
She said taking the broom,
"Good! Now let's make this place suitable, this much dust is horrible for your health! Horrible!"
You nodded, placing the remaining objects onto the floor and carefully picking up the boxes.
"You organize those pesky boxes dearie, I'll start sweeping."
The attic completely changed from gloomy to more refined within the day.
The boxes were stacked up forming a small wall with some free space behind it, the floors had been swept and sanitized (aside from the summoning circle) the candles were replaced with fresh ones, that book that summoned her was placed on one of the boxes.
Rosie had gone back and asked you to summon her back within the hour, bringing back some furniture with her.
She brought a smallish table, two fancy looking chairs, and a rug.
Rosie said as she sat in one of the chairs you in the other, drinking tea, you didn't know where she had gotten the tea from or when it got into your hands.
"Now that makes this place far better, far far better don't you think?"
You didn't like tea all that much but it felt rude to not drink it.
You wondered if it would kill you as you took a sip,
You glanced around at the open space, honestly it was overdo, you had been sleeping in there for a couple of years now and hadn't gotten around to it.
"Yeah, it feels less stuffy for sure,"
"As it should, now that's settled why did such a lovely young lady like yourself want to summon a demon?"
She asked setting her teacup down, getting straight to the point, you choked on your tea, clearing your throat you looked anywhere but in Rosie's void-like eyes.
It was silent for a few minutes,
"It's a long story, but basically parents went missing, moved in with my Godparents, Godmother went missing, Godfather started being suspicious, pretty sure he killed them, can't prove it and I think I'm next." You said in one large breath,
"Well shit, I wasn't expecting that, that's a very messy situation,"
"Auntie Rosie dearie."
"Yeah it is Miss Rosie,"
"Sorry Auntie Rosie."
You sat in silence for a moment, you fiddled with the hem of your sweater, did she believe you? Honestly you didn't particularly believe it yourself it was all suspected.
The attic felt gloomy again once Rosie left, you were once again left alone.
"Would you like me to eat him?"
"Par- Pardon me?!"
You let out a sigh before moving to one of the boxes pulling out a throw blanket and covering the circle, no one aside from you really came up there but couldn't hurt to be cautious.
You moved to the small space behind the boxes, you open another box pulling out a few two sleeping bags, layering them onto each other and placing a pillow on it, opening yet another box you pulled out a thick blanket, you laid on the sleeping bags, curling up into it and closing your eyes until sleep came for you.
A routine began, you'd carry on like normal, going to school, working shady part-time jobs, shoplift storage safe foods at large corporations like target, and go home before your Godfather finished work, sneak back into the attic, and depending on the day summon Rosie.
Rosie was concerned to say the least, you were young, not even a proper adult yet, and you were summoning cannibals in your Attic!
Not to mention how causally there was a whole missing people who were probably was murdered thing going on, would more detail go into that? No.
Rosie truly became an Aunt to you, bringing you trinkets, hyping you up, asking if you wanted her to eat your Godfather, after all that is what you originally summoned her for, but you didn't want to risk getting moved to a different area and having to redraw the circle to summon Rosie, what if you do it wrong? What if you never see her again?
So she didn't do anything to him, listening to your decision.
You would sometimes steal or buy something you think she'd like, and give it to her during her visits, she'd typically adore it whatever it was, because it came from you!
The two of you would have tea, give each other updates on life, and the afterlife.
It was nice, but like all nice things, it unfortunately came to an end.
You ran up the stairs, throwing your backpack at him to knock him down the stairs as you pulled out the attic ladder and hurriedly climbed the ladder up before kicking down the ladder to the attic, like a slasher protagonist, you hastily moved a few heavy boxes over the hatch.
He came home early, and when you walked inside the house to sneak upstairs into your attic, nothing was said, so it was concerning when he grabbed his murder weapon of choice and bolted off after you.
You just needed to summon Rosie and everything would be alright, they couldn't hurt you if Rosie was here,
You shakily pulled out the lighter that stayed in your pocket as you heard your Godfather shout your name, banging on the entrance.
Lighting the candles you scrambled to sit beside the circle, closing your eyes you began the summoning.
The wind began pushing as per usual,
The banging got louder, you could hear one of the boxes fall,
Just a few more seconds, and Auntie Rosie would appear, just a few more seconds and you'd be free, free from this lunatic, you could get a proper job that wasn't suspicious, probably go to collage, make proper friends that you could tell Rosie about with pride, you could give Rosie gifts that weren't stolen or cheap.
Just a few more seconds that's all you needed.
The hatch flew open, his eyes widened, no words were spoken, you didn't even get the chance to defend yourself when the murder weapon of choice, which was a machete because of course it was, stabbed into you.
Rosie appeared, smile dropping the moment she saw you on the ground, blood leaking into the Attic floors, the attic that she had helped you clean up, that she spent time with you in.
Rosie's eyes locked onto your godfather, bloody machete in hand, her mouth opened, revealing her razor sharp teeth.
Blood was splattered across the walls, Rosie wiped blood from her mouth with a handkerchief before kneeling down next to you and gently lifting you up into her lap,
Your eyes were glossy, and blood covered you.
You smiled up at her as she gently brushed away the hair from your face.
You tried to sit up but couldn't,
Rosie rubbed your back, trying to make you comfortable, unsure of what she could say to soothe you, you were dying and she could do much to stop it.
"Yes [Name]?"
"Auntie Rosie?"
"I,-" you take a painful breath, your last word privileges being revoked
"Shh, it's alright don't strain yourself, Close your eyes and rest dearie."
She said pulling you closer, rocking you gently in her arms until you breathed your last.
The door opened to the empty Emporium, Rosie sat in a chair writing down a grocery list,
"I'm sorry but the emporium's closed now!" She shouted over not looking up from her list.
"Auntie Rosie?"
Her head snapped over, eyes filling up with tears as she saw the very child that had died in her arms months ago, the child that she had adopted as her own, standing in her emporium with a nervous smile on their lovely face, the child she cared for had ended up below with her.
"[Name]? Oh my stars! my dear [name]!"
She got up from her seat, rushing over to embrace you, wrapping her arms around you as tears gathered up in your eyes.
"I missed you Auntie Rosie."
"I missed ya too Darlin', now-" she broke the hug and held your shoulders
"Let's get you settled in shall we? Are you hungry? I think we have some leftover pinkie fingers."
"I forgot you were a cannibal."
Tumblr media
Rosie had prepared you a room, far better than the attic, because it was a legit room, with proper insulation.
You were staring in a mirror taking in your new appearance when Rosie knocked on the door,
"Sweetheart may I come in?"
"Sure! Come on in''
Rosie walked in and placed papers in front of you,
"Be a dear and sign these please"
"is this a contract for my soul?"
"Close! It's adoption papers, sign them."
Good evening folks, I crave sleep, also my apologies this was requested ages ago and I just now got to it, hope you enjoyed even though it's messy, I just killed off the reader the angst isn't that angsty
I wrote the angst first then everything else

Fatgum, that's enough slices, we've discussed now make
Late night phone calls, lmao
Taishiro Toyomitsu had always visited the same bakery, at least once he seen the really cute girl that worked there. Day after day he went in just to see you before work, before he had to get bigger for work. He didn't want to feel like you wouldn't look his way, he was a hero and he had better things to worry about. But here he was, visiting without his uniform and waiting as you made his order.
"So, busy day today?" You turned and put the coffee on the table, "You don't usually carry a bag in, so I'm a little curious."
Taishiro didn't want to lie about it, but he also couldn't just tell you the full truth. "Somethin' like that." His mumbling had always drawn you in, mainly because you couldn't hear him, but he didn't mind. "I, uh, kinda have an important job."
Your laughter was part of the reason he kept coming around. "Ah, alright. I won't dig too much." And the way you had to crane your neck just to make eye contact. Taishiro was aware that he was tall, how couldn't he be when he dodged doorframes, but for some reason it felt like an achievement when you looked up at him with that sugary sweet smile. You didn't pry, didn't ask too many questions or for too much detail. Whatever came your way, you simply let it. Taishiro grabbed the bag of cupcakes you handed him, thanked you, and went about his day. With you on his mind.
As was the routine, until he grew brave enough to ask you out on a date. Taishiro was nervous about having you in his home, but he could get used to the view as you cooked. He thought you had nice hips. The way you hummed as you cooked was even cute and had his complete attention. "Do you enjoy cooking?" Taishiro moved to lean on the counter next to you, eyes never leaving an inch of your skin.
"I do. My grandmother taught me to bake, and I picked up cooking regular meals pretty quickly. I guess it helped, since my quirk ended up being food related." Crows feet, you smiled a lot and he just had to notice it. If there was anyone who would smile so much they developed early crows feet, it was you. "Your quirk is food related?" It caught him a bit off guard. Of course, he wasn't sure what he assumed, maybe that you were simply quirkless, but that thought made him feel silly. "My emotions change the taste of the food, along with how well the food energizes and fuels anyone who eats it." The explanation was simple enough, and probably explained why you didn't work on some days. You couldn't risk feeding someone food that wasn't proper to eat.
"And... are you happy right now?" Taishiro needed to know if he made you feel anything good. He really, truly hoped he did. "I'm a little nervous, but otherwise, yeah, I am happy with this." The way you replied was special to him. Vulnerable and still oh-so true to yourself. It made him feel less awkward about the first date being in his home. "I hope I don't make you uncomfortable." Taishiro wanted to reach out and touch your arm to put you at ease, but something told him that wouldn't help.
"No, no you don't. I just don't normally go to people's houses for a first date." He loved that your smile was hidden in his house instead of out in the open at the bakery, "And, if I'm honest, I am a little worried..."
Taishiro felt his stomach drop all the way to his toes. "I hope I didn't do anything wrong to make you feel in danger."
"No, no." Your pretty hand waved him off, "I just... I feel like I don't know you, y'know? Like, either of us could be anyone." It was a reasonable concern; Taishiro knew he wouldn't hurt you but you had no idea who he was to feel as secure in that information. "Can I show you something?" Taishiro took your hand, "Just for a second?" Of course he had to word it like a serial killer. He truly only meant to show you his hero uniform. Maybe that would put you at ease. You'd only ever seen him in his skinny form, so there was the possibility that you didn't believe him regardless.
He led you, to your confusion, to his laundry room where he dug out the jacket and handed it to you. "Why are you showing me this?" You asked, unfolding the article of clothing. It was shocking when you opened the giant hoodie to find the F-G-F on the front. You stretched the material, finding that it stretched, and the logo didn't warp. Regular merch distorted. The real proof was when he pulled out his hero license. "Whoa..." You mumbled, taking the piece of plastic gently, "Why didn't you ever ask for more baked goods?!"
The change in your atmosphere was crazy. You didn't seem to really care that he was a hero, but that he hadn't bought more? Taishiro was confused. "I'm sorry?" He scratched his neck. "You're a pro hero and you went into work like this!" You waved at his smaller form, "What were you thinking? You must've borderline gorged yourself to get into the right shape to use your quirk!"
Yeah, that made more sense to him. You didn't seem to be the type to want money more than anything, so you looking out for his wellbeing was a whole lot more wholesome and truer to your character. And you didn't even give him time to respond before you were out in the kitchen already planning out several different things to put out in the shop. "I'll have to stock up! Do you like chocolate chip or something else? Does coffee also work with your quirk? I can make something else!"
Your rambling was adorable, Taishiro couldn't help but lean against the wall and watch you as you planned and planned. Having someone care about him and his work was endearing. There was never anyone like that for him until now. Part of him enjoyed it a lot, the other half was worried about how fast she was going. Taishiro could practically see the smoke coming from her ears with how hard she was thinking.
"You don't have to worry that much about it." The pro hero chuckled. Yet you still walked and paced as you cooked for the inside date night with the man you just learned a ton about.

This came to me in a dream but reader doing an acupressure move on Aaronโ€™s hand whenever heโ€™s too frowny and tense that makes him see stars and basically drift up to nirvana and all the tightness in his body release and the first time they do it heโ€™d be so confused like why do you want my hand??? but okay here take I- ๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ฆ๐Ÿ˜ง๐Ÿคค๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ
Bonus points bc the team would be like YOU CAN TURN OFF HIS OSCAR-THE-GROUCH MODE??? NEVER LEAVE THIS TEAM.
Just wanted to share idk what part of my uncultured brain spawned acupressure theory this evening but Iโ€™ll take it ๐Ÿค <3
Aaron's grumpy again. Most of the time he is, at least within the confines of his work hours. It's hard to smile when you're looking for abducted teenagers, but if he frowns any harder, he'll get stuck that way.
"There has to be something we're missing," He presses, narrowed eyes surveying the crime scene photos, "This level of violence is extreme, there's no need for this much overkill."
"Maybe he's fascinated with the blood," Reid suggests, hands coming up to aid in his explanation, "Y'know, some serial killers only kill for blood. There's various reasons for it, maybe they collect it, maybe they drink it, maybe they have some event in their past that makes it significant to them, but whatever it is, the killing isn't what they need, the blood is."
"Well these are teenage girls," Derek sighs, "Maybe the unsub lost a girlfriend or a sister in a pretty bloody way? Like a shooting, or a car accident or something?"
The table falls silent, each profiler extrapolating possibilities. You're halfway to reaching a possible conclusion, a suggestion about hunting on your tongue, but you see Aaron's fingers brush together, and it distracts you. He does it when he's anxious, and you're noticing it more and more lately.
You reach for his hand instead of speaking. You'll help later, when Aaron isn't suffering like this. Your fingers brush against his skin as you take his palm into your grip, and he looks at you from the side of his eye disapprovingly.
"Y/N," He murmurs, but no attempt at keeping his voice silent masks it from the other silent members of the team, "Now isn't the time for personal-" You squeeze at a tender spot on his hand methodically, "Relations..."
His face relaxes, wrinkles and ridges ebbing away as his eyes flutter shut involuntarily. You grin as wide as possible while sitting in front of bloody crime scene photos, happy you're able to provide even momentary relief.
"What was that?" Aaron looks at you, half suspicious and half dazed.
"Acupressure," You announce proudly, "It helps, doesn't it?"
"Yes," Aaron nods, running his fingers over the patch of skin that you'd pressed on, "It does."
"Where'd you learn that?" Rossi leans across the table.
"I was getting migraines from stress," You admit, "It helps to calm me down."
"Well, you're more of a magician than Spencer, Y/L/N," Derek grins, "You just melted that frown right off his face."
"Actually, acupressure isn't magic." Spencer starts, and he pointedly ignores the sighs that echo around the room, "It's a pseudoscience that originates from Chinese alternative medicine, and it works by targeting pressure points in your body that are supposedly linked to your 'life energy'. There've been several studies surrounding it which produced varying positive results, the most remarkable of which have documented illnesses actually being cured." He blinks once, twice after finishing, lips curving up into a half-smile that pudges his cheeks where they end.
"Well, uh, card tricks aren't magic either," Prentiss is the first to speak, "So I guess none of us are wizard-ready."

no real warnings tbh just that reader is a serial killer
i think that he would literally never ever guess it was you. this unsub has been taunting the team, they'd get close and then, the MOMENT they think they're getting close... you're gone (kinda). cuz technically you're still around yk. you're going on dates with aaron, taking care of jack during emergencies, etc. but your serial killer hobbies are in hiatus.
aaron would talk about it with you too. he knows he's not supposed to tell you about the case, but sometimes he gets so frustrated with the case and you lend him an ear yk.
you hide it well, but every time he talks to you about the case. you feel giddy knowing how well you've stumped the great bau.
aaron would never suspect you. you're a great partner, a great parent, he loves you. i mean, every night he holds you talking about how much he loves you. you're the sunshine on his rainy day. all of this distracts you, keeps you on haitus for a long time maybe even permenantly. he tells you that he's planning on quitting the bau. that lets you relax, truly putting your hobbies to rest.
"i think i'm going to take the offer..." aaron says, leaning against the counter, watching you cook dinner.
"hmm? which offer?" you look over at him, in his tight shirt and baggy pants.
"to resign." he laughs and pushing his hair back with one hand. "i want to be here... with you and jack. i want to focus on being a father... and a husband." he looks away and you smile at his bashfulness.
"i'm happy with whatever decision you chose to make, aaron. you're stuck with me."
then he proposes, you're elated. every thing is perfect. you have an amazing fiance, an amazing (almost) step-son. the entire bau is there when he proposes. every single thing is perfect... except that aaron isn't quitting. he's staying at the bau with them. he's staying with them. even after he promised you that he'd quit.
"you told me... you told me that you'd quit." you pace around the living room.
"i know. i'm sorry, but the team needs me." aaron looks at you, eyes filled with guilt.
"we need you, aaron! me and jack! we need you." you feel tears roll down your cheeks.
"(y/n)..." he tries to reach out to you and you back away. he stops, hurt.
"i need some air." you leave, kissing jack good-bye.
you were gone for a week, and in that week, two people had died.
"something on your mind, aaron?" rossi put a hand on his shoulder. aaron sat in his office, staring at the picture of the three of you on a picnic.
"i'm not sure... since (y/n)'s been gone, two people have died and... i noticed this last time too." aaron puts his head in his hands.
"what do you mean?" rossi sits down.
"i-i'm not sure. last time too, we had a fight and they left and- and people died." the dots start to connect, but rossi shakes his head.
"aaron, you don't really think-"
"no. no, i'm sure i'm just imagining it."
"i think you should listen to strauss. the stress from scratch, the new unsub, everything..." rossi trails off.
"i know... i know, i'll think about it."
of course, aaron calls your parents and they say you've been with them the entire time. so he lets it go, but it stays on his mind even when you were back. you'd be sleeping in the same bed and he'd look at you and wonder... could you be a killer? but you'd pull him into a kiss and he'd fall for your warmth once more. you knew he had his suspicions, rossi told you himself. he said he was "worried" that you should "convince him to resign. it'll be good for the both of you". and you did just that. you moved up the wedding, you sent out the invitations, you did everything to distract him from his suspicions and work.
when you walk down the aisle, you see all his suspicions melt as tears fall from his eyes. you feel a grin creep up your face, you did it. you had him for yourself.
"i, aaron hotchner, take (y/n) to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part"
