#when he's displeased he just yells 'HEY' and does nothing about it (most times)

Hey, I hope you're doing good.
In your last post, you wrote that their "relationship" is a secret for obvious (and sick) reasons. If it ever comes out, Sam wants to see Amber burn (he he...see what I did here), but how would the others react? Wes, Liv, and the twins were all friends with Amber, and it must be a shock to realize that she took advantage of someone who's like a little sister to all of them, right?
They don't actually have a relationship in a romantic/sexual manner... it's complicated. Have you never had a friendship you've been uncomfortable sharing with other people, or that other people have openly disapproved of? I have, so I guess what I'm trying to say makes so much sense to me but not to a lot of other people.
So here's how Amber's behaviour with Tara is once she meets Richie: pet names, flirting, constantly brushing her hair back or touching her face/shoulders/arms with the intention of flustering her.
Before Richie, some of that still applied. She'd call her darling, and brush her hair out of her face and caress her cheek and hold her hand. But then, so did everyone else.
Most of Amber's grooming takes place digitally via constant texting and online communication. That said, there is definitely a time where Amber offers to teach Tara how to kiss and she does (they're 14 and 19). It's soon after Sam catches Tara kissing a boy and freaks out about it. Her overreaction pushes Tara away, and Amber is there to take advantage of it by reassuring Tara she did nothing wrong. Sam comes home on that day and is displeased to find Amber there. She doesn't like the way Tara is all flustered and won't meet her eyes, and the way Amber looks so smug. She sees something in her eyes she doesn't like and kicks her out, tells her she's not welcome here if Sam isn't here. That sets Tara off and they argue again. The words "you just want me to be as alone and miserable as you" were definitely spoken (yelled). (Don't judge Tara too harshly, she's going through a lot.)
The truth of the matter doesn't come out until 4 years later when they're attacked in New York. I don't actually mention the twins in that post, so I'm not sure where they end up. I think realistically Sam's 'family' has fallen apart by that point. The twins were the only ones left and they went to University the year after the first attack, and Sam's so focused on helping her sister heal that she doesn't have time to think about others. Plus, Judy and Wes' death hits her so much harder because of how close she was to them. Judy was like a mother to her! I don't think she would tell the twins once she learns either, because it's not her story to tell.
Now obviously if it had come out before everything went down, they all would have been horrified. Tara is like a little sister to them all, she's their baby sister, and the thought that anyone - that one of them - could do that to her, could mess with her like that, it would kill them. Say they like, walk in on Amber over Tara, I think Mindy would probably react the fastest, she would be on Amber in a second slapping the shit out of her. Chad would manhandle her out of the room, Wes would call his mother. In the AU none of them ever think there is anything weird about Tara's relationship with Amber, because it never even occurs to them that Amber would do something like that.
Sidenote, do you know what is never mentioned, never bought up when talking about 'grooming' in Scream 5? Vince and Liv. That was fucking skeevy.

summary : Time, it goes and runs out. However, his love for you never does and never ever will. Because his heart, is all yours.
warnings : none
genre : self doubt, lost of confidence, sfw and ofc fluff as well
word count: 676 words 3,686 characters
a/n : f/n - friend's name { Also ur siblings with Iwaizumi }
"Finally. Finally." "I cant believe it." "How long have you been waiting for this then?" You said, letting out a light chuckle. "Not sure, it just feels like an eternity." He replied, with a smile made across his face; And his eyes sparkling as he looked at you. Wait a minute, I'm so sorry. Let's go back a bit. Shall we? "Y/N! Look, it's Oikawa! He's so good looking isn't he?" "Seriously F/N?" You told your friend who was highly ecstatic, rolling your eyes. You never really understood why your best friend and other students were so obsessed with Oikawa Tooru. Yes, he was the so called "Grand King", but you've heard otherwise from your older brother, Iwaizumi. He was a 3rd year and you were a 2nd year. However, you always tagged along whenever F/N wasn't available. Most times you'd reach both of them fighting or calling each other names. Though, you just laughed or shrugged it off. Except for the fact it can also get annoying. "Hey! Y/N! Were you paying attention?" Your friend asked, bringing you back to reality away from your thoughts. "If you were talking incessantly about Oikawa, then no." You said sarcastically. "No, not in that way you idiot! He was staring at you for half the time his fangirls approached him." "Now I think you're the idiot. Stop saying nonsense." "Excuse me? Nonsense!? I caught him and when I did he looked away." "You expect me to believe that F/N L/N?" "Anyways, my brother messaged me to come meet him before they start volleyball practice." "Oh! Alright... See you bestie!" "See you." You said having a change of tone before turning around to leave. You reached the volleyball court more quickly than you expected. "Y/N! Over here!" Someone called out to you. It wasn't Iwaizumi. It was Oikawa. You reluctantly walked over to where he was standing. "Where's my brother?" Was the first thing you said to him. "Iwa-chan just went to change." "There he is!" You saw your brother walking out of the locker room. "Hajime!" You yelled at him. "Y/N." He responded back, smug as usual. "So you messaged?" You asked him. "Yes. Oikawa wanted to talk to you." "I didn't want to agree... But he wouldn't stop pissing me off." "I understand if you think this is a waste of time." He said in an apologizing tone. "It's fine, Haji." "What do you want Oikawa?" You questioned the oh so tall boy. "I- I just wanted to invite you, to today's practice." "I-If that's okay, with you...?" He stuttered. Iwaizumi's POV: He's stuttering? Interesting. Does he? No I can't assume anything. "Yea, sure. But I'm only going cause I want to support you guys." "That's it." "Alright. Fine by me." He answered. "Let's go Shittykawa." Iwaizumi shot at him. "You too, Y/N." time skip "Good job, you guys!" "Thanks, Y/N" Both said. "Shittykawa, we'll be going now." Iwaizumi told him. "Wait!" Oikawa yelled. "What Shittykawa?" "Is it fine, if I come along?" "I have nothing to do this afternoon so..." "Sure I guess." "What about you, Y/N?" "Yea, sure." "Great! Thank you!" He said running up to you and Iwa. As you started to walk home, you and Oikawa started to talk a bit. Your brother didn't mind at all. He trusted you with his best friend anyways. Turns out, Oikawa isn't as bad and displeasing as you thought he was. Reaching your house, he waved good bye to you both. "Bye Iwa-chan! Bye Y/N-san!" Oikawa said. "Bye, Oikawa." Iwaizumi said turning around to enter the front door. While you just stood there. You didn't know why nor what it was, but you felt something. All you did was just wave back as you parted ways. "What is going on with me?" You mumbled. "Y/N! Hurry! I think it's going to rain." "Oh! Sorry Haji! Coming!" Is it time? When is the time? When will be the time? Love is complicated, isn't it?

The End. Pt 2 coming soon.

Support
Relationships: Jushiro Ukitake x Kana(My OC), Shunsui Kyoraku x Kana(My OC)
Fandom: Bleach’
Warnings: Fluff :), some kiss talk, embarrassment, cute, humor, friends to lovers?, for my own entertainment really
Summary: Growing up with her two best friends, Jushiro Ukitake and Shunsui Kyoraku, Kana really couldn’t hide anything from them. Especially when they get on her nerves.
Tumblr media
— — — —
“You had your shot.” Shunsui gloats, puffing his cheeks as he takes a sip of his sake. I gawked at his words. How dare he not be a supportive best friend?
“Shunsui.” Jushiro glares at his friend, but it’s quickly changed when he looks back at me with a soft smile. “I’m sure you’ll get another chance.”
I huff, folding my arms out of both embarrassment and anger. Earlier, my crush got very close and asked me straight if he wanted to be together. I was very shocked that he actually liked me back. After that, I couldn’t help but arrive at my usual hang-out with my two best friends without hiding my anger. I ended up yelling out how frustrated I was because I turned down my crush's request to make out. 
“I-I don’t know, Jushiro. He seemed….upset.” I mutter.
The white-haired male sets his hand gently on my shoulder, keeping his smile. “Well, to be honest, it wouldn’t make sense for him to be upset with you turning down a kiss. Maybe…he’s not right for you…?” He treads carefully on the topic of his displeased impression of the guy.
Shunsui gently pushes Jushiro to the side. “Why didn’t you kiss him?” I knew that look in his eyes. He’s starting to unravel my secret. 
Jushiro pokes his head back when the idea comes to mind. “I wonder that, too. You’re the impulsive type and you’re not afraid to get what you want. So…why is it you didn’t kiss him?”
I could feel my cheeks getting hotter by the second. I had to avoid eye contact as I thought about the answer. Should I tell them?
“I bet she’s playing hard to get,” Shunsui concludes, talking as if I wasn’t there. 
“That very well could be,” Jushiro agrees, “but does she seem the type?”
“Of course! Don’t you remember the time we were kids and she kept ignoring that boy who had a crush on her?”
“Ah, that’s right. If I remember correctly, she didn’t actually like him but was teasing him.”
I growled at their annoying banter about me. What angered me the most was that that story is completely wrong. In fact, it was me who was running away because I didn’t like the boy but he kept following me anyway. My body shivered at the odd memory, thankful I haven’t run into that kid at all.
But this was the last straw. Instead of supporting me or helping me in any way, they get into my business and talk badly about me. Right in front of me, too. The rope has finally snapped and I turn to them with the best glare I had, baring my teeth at them.
“I-I can’t kiss, okay?!”
The two males look at me in shock, making me feel even more embarrassed than I was before. “I…I never learned how to kiss…” 
“Really?!” They both say in unison. 
Shunsui took a step forward, a smile gracing his lips. “Well, why didn’t you say so? I can certainly teach you.”
“W-what?!” I gasp. I was not expecting that from him.
His hand lands on Jushiro’s shoulder, shaking him a bit. “And I’m sure Jushiro wouldn’t mind, either. Right?”
Jushiro smiled kindly, like usual. “Of course…Wait, what?” He suddenly realized what his friend meant and he quickly tries to correct his wording. “I-I mean….! As your best friend, of course! Nothing beyond that…” He chuckles nervously.
“What friends you are,” I mumble, looking away in disappointment, “whatever, I’ll deal with it myself.” I leave them to their own thoughts as I walk out of the room.
— — — —
Bonus:
Shunsui stared at the doorway Kana just left through. “Hey, Jushiro, do you think she was blushing just now?”
Jushiro sighs. “I wish you wouldn’t tease her like that. You know how she can get with relationship talk.”
His friend smiles. “She’ll get over it.”

could you do a fantasy au with bakugou as a kitsune? you’ve just recently moved into a cottage in the woods to get away from your previous life, when you stubble across baku in a trap surrounded by hunters! you of course aren’t going to let some assholes hurt an innocent creature, so you devise a plan to get him free. you draw the hunter’s attention away from the caged baku, causing them to run off. you then get to baku, and are able to free him. though a slight problem, the hunters are coming back, and they see you messing with their ‘find.’ while you’re frozen in place, baku literally picks you up, and jumps into the trees, evading gunshots. he keeps you there until the hunters go away.
after all this drama, you start hanging out with the kitsune more and more. you two get closer as time goes on, and bakugou becomes more and more infatuated and protective of you. he’s touchier, softer, and overall more gentle with you. he even lets you touch his ears and tail. everything is all well and good when oh no, the hunters are back, and they’re out for revenge. while you’re at the cottage, they ransack your home, chasing you out into the woods. you’re sprinting, calling for bakugou as the hunters are gaining. just then, none other than the fox himself jumps in and beats the absolute shit outta the hunters. he then turns to you, worry as well as rage in his eyes. he sees they’ve hurt you, and that’s the final nail in the coffin for what he’s about to do. “Stay with me.” he pleads. “you don’t have a safe home anymore, and even if you did, i can’t promise your safety. i NEED you to be safe, okay. stay with me as my mate. i’ll hunt for you. i’ll protect you. anything, and you’ve got it.” you’re stunned. eyes wide, you ask him why. why does he care so much? nobody else ever did, so why does he, as powerful and as beautiful as he is. the answer isn’t as hard as you would think “it’s because i fucking love you...”
OKAY this is definitely long and more of a vent than anything but i think it’s so cute! just imagine cuddling with him as soft and as cute as he would be, hanging over you like a jungle cat. very nice, very nice indeed
kitsune!Bakugou x gn!reader (I couldn't think of a title, sorry)
Genre: Fantasy
Warnings: Swearing caz Bakugou, brief mentions of gunshots (that’s it I think?? But if there’s anything I missed please let me know)
Word Count: 2.5k
A/N: Tysm for requesting, this was such a cute idea! I’m sorry this took some time, exams are coming so my writing’s a little slow haha. I wrote this to be gn!reader but if anywhere implies otherwise please let me know :) And to everyone else who requested, I’m working on them!
Y/N: Your name
L/N: Last name
You had recently moved into a little cottage in the woods, not too far away from the main city, but enough to be away from the busy, commercial life you once lived. Others might disagree, but you felt more at peace among nature, like you were truly satisfied. You had never enjoyed living among many people, so you were excited to start your new life, out here in the woods. As you walked back to your cottage after taking a walk to familiarize yourself with your new surroundings, you heard a few voices up ahead. You groaned, not wanting to socialize with anyone, but before you could turn to take a different route to avoid whoever was there, you overheard one of the voices say, “We’re gonna get a fine amount of money for this creature’s fur, ya hear me? So make sure the trap is secure.” A couple of other voices mumbled in agreement. You frowned. Although you could not really make out what animal they had caught, you did know that whatever they were doing, it sounded illegal. You sighed. You did not want to confront anyone, but you made your way towards the voices. You saw three men surrounding a cage, holding… guns? “What have I gotten myself into?” you internally groaned, but it was too late to turn back now. “Um, excuse me?” you called out hesitantly. They turned at the sound of your voice, looking displeased. You smiled nervously. “Hi, um, it’s actually illegal to hunt in this area…” you trailed off, seeing their annoyance. “How would you know, you little punk? Go braid daisy crowns or whatever you do in this dump,” one of them sneered at you. You were slowly growing irritated, but you kept the smile on your face, determining to help whatever animal they had imprisoned. “Ok, well, I was going to let you know that if you walk a few miles from here, there is a hunting area. You guys aren’t the first hunters I’ve seen around here,” you lied through your teeth, trying to distract them to give you enough time to release the trapped creature. “If you check it out, I’ll forget I even saw you guys here, and no one will know that y’all were hunting illegally, ok? Plus, I’ve seen a lot of finer animals in that area.” “Maybe we should listen to her, boss,” one of the hunters said to the one who had spoken to you first. “I mean, it is just a fox, and if we’re caught…” he whispered the rest of his sentence to their leader, who in turn frowned. “Fuck, whatever. How far is the hunting area, kid?” he asked, the question directed to you. “Oh, um, about… 10 miles from here? In that direction,” you said, pointing. “You better not be lying to us,” the hunter glared at you, making you gulp. You tried to act nonchalant until they were out of sight, then immediately rushed to the trap. You gasped when you saw a beautiful fox with… tan, almost golden fur. You had never even heard of foxes that colour. The hunters were idiotic to listen to you and leave this amazing creature, but you were glad they did. The fox made a low, growling noise, snapping you out of your trance. “Ah, right, I’m sorry, I’ll let you out now, don’t worry,” you said, suddenly feeling stupid that you were conversing with an animal. You quickly set your attention onto setting it free. The trap looked complicated to deactivate, but you realized it was actually quite simple, and you managed to free the fox in no time. “There you go,” you smiled, “You’re free now.” Surprisingly, the fox lingered, studying you with beautiful carmine eyes. First tan fur, now red eyes? “You’re like something outta a fairy tale, huh? So pretty,” you said softly, gazing at it at wonder, when you heard distant voices shouting.
Crap. The hunters.
“You really thought you could fool us! There were no animals in that area!” “Ahaha fuck, I’m in trouble,” you murmured, thinking of a way to escape, when you remembered the fox was still here! “Hey uh, you really should get outta here-” you said, turning to find not a fox, but a man with fox ears and a- no wait, nine tails. Your eyes widened, freezing as you tried to process what just happened.
“Oi, dumbass, if you’re not gonna run they’re gonna get you, you know.”
“I- uhhh… well this is a weird dream,” you chuckled nervously. “Tch, idiot,” was all he said before picking you up bridal-style and running faster than the hunters could catch up. You felt something whizz past your ear. “HOLY FU- THEY’RE SHOOTING AT US!” you yelled, grabbing at the man’s collar. “Thanks for stating the obvious, dumbass!” he yelled back. “Now would you shut up so I can focus on not dying?” You quickly turned silent after that statement. Without warning the… man? fox? man fox?? suddenly took a huge leap into the trees, landing on a branch that somehow held his weight. You yelped, then quickly covered your mouth in order to keep quiet as you saw the hunters running past from underneath. “They’re gone now,” you heard the man speak as he set you down on the branch. The tree you both were on was sturdy, giving you a secure foothold. You turned to face him. “Uh, thanks for saving me back there, but I’m pretty sure you were a fox when I first saw you…?” “Tch. Humans really have gotten dumber over the past few years haven’t they. I’m a kitsune. Ya know what that is?” Your eyes widened. “A-a kitsune as in the ones in the fairy tales? The foxes who can shapeshift to humans, and have many tails…” you trailed off, feeling stupid that you had not noticed earlier. The kitsune smirked in response. “Yeah, and I have nine, meaning I’m the most powerful. You’re lucky I was there to save you.” “You saved me? Who was trapped in a cage, huh? If anything, you should be thanking me,” you huffed, annoyed. Who did he think he was? He said nothing, simply gazing at you with interest written all over the flaming pools of scarlet that were his eyes. You tried not to feel intimidated by them, not knowing what powers this creature possessed. You could not deny that he was beautiful as a human, alluring even, with blonde hair similar to his fox fur, and his body looked as if it were sculpted by gods. You gulped, forcing yourself to stop staring at all the scars scattering his bare chest. He smirked as if he knew exactly what you were thinking of, causing your face to heat up. “Where do you live, dumbass? I’m sure you can’t climb down trees.” You rolled your eyes, embarrassed that he was right. “Not far from here, I’ll manage.” “Don’t be ridiculous,” was all he said before he lifted you in his arms again, leaping to the ground and taking you home in no time. “I didn’t even give you directions,” you said, confused. He sighed. “I could smell your scent from here. Why do you live in the middle of the forest?” “Caz I want to??” you said. “That’s weird,” he responded. “Don’t you live here too though?” you retorted. You saw a smirk flicker briefly on his face before being replaced again with his bored expression. “I’ll see you around then, dumbass.” He said, turning to leave. “Wait!” you called out, immediately regretting it. Why’d I do that? But there was no time to question your actions as he looked at you, eyebrow raised. “Uh, I-I just wanted to know your name,” you said a little breathlessly. “Katsuki Bakugou,” he said, never breaking eye contact. “Bakugou, huh? Well, I’m Y/N L/N,” you replied. Bakugou shrugged. “I’ll be leaving then dumbass.” You huffed. “I literally just told you my name!” “And?” was all he said, before vanishing through the foliage of trees. You exhaled slowly, feeling a little disoriented. You had so many questions but decided not to think too much of the day’s events, instead opting for relaxing in your new home.
The next day, you decided to just hang out at home, yet you could not get the kitsune out of your mind, making you frustrated. “Ah, fuck it,” you mumbled, before heading out. You were not sure where you were going, but you walked in the same direction you did yesterday. “What are you doing this you idiot? What if the hunters find you again?” you thought, yet your body did not listen, continuing to walk in the same path. You did not run into anyone on the way. Unfortunately, that included Bakugou. You decided to just sit down under a tree and read the book you had brought with you. You had been peacefully reading for a while, the sounds of the forest soothing to you ears.
“Well fancy seeing you here.” You whipped your head at the sound of his voice. You saw the fox with tan fur you rescued yesterday. “Bakugou?” He transformed into his human form, grinning as he did so. “So, what’re you doing here, dumbass? Missed me?” You rolled your eyes. “You wish. I came here to relax for a bit.” “Whatever you say, dumbass. What’re you reading?” You showed him your book, causing him to snort. “What?” you asked, slightly irritated. What was his deal? “Your taste is so bland, I’m not surprised.” “Fuck off,” you responded. “As if you’ve ever even touched a book before.” “I have,” Bakugou said, raising his eyebrows. “Didn’t peg you as the type to read,” you said, getting back to your book. “Is that all modern-day kitsunes do these days?” Bakugou shrugged. “I’ve never met any others here.” You looked back at him, surprised. “So… you’re alone?” “Tch. I just prefer to be by myself.” You nodded. “Me too.” “Pfft, you? You look like someone who would love being around people, with how much you talk and all.” You glared at him. “And this is exactly why I like being on my own.” He raised his arms. “I guess I’ll leave then. Since you seem to really hate company, right dumbass?” “My name is not dumbass, it’s Y/N. Why’re you so rude?” you hissed. You were met with silence when you realized he had left. You could not believe you actually came out all this way just to talk to him, only for him to randomly leave mid-conversation. You huffed, shifting your position to get more comfortable. “I’m still here you know.” You jumped, hearing his voice from above you. “What the hell?” He snorted in amusement. “You really think you could get rid of me that easily, dumbass?” You rolled your eyes, but inside you felt secretly happy that he had stayed, and you hated it. “You’re so annoying,” you retorted, turning a page in your book, yet somehow not really seeing the words. It was quiet for a while, before Bakugou jumped back down to the ground, sitting next to you. “Read that for me,” he said in a tone unlike his usual one. “What?” “You seem to like this trash so much, so read it,” he said, making himself comfortable. You sighed. “Fine.”
And so began the afternoons you would spend with him. Every day, you would meet him under the same tree and read. Sometimes he would fall asleep next to you, exposing a more soft and vulnerable side of him, contrasting to his normally brash and rough personality. It was pretty sweet, and over time, your feelings for him only grew. You were not sure, but you felt that he too had become softer and gentler around you as time went on. He even let you pet his ears, blushing whenever you did so, trying to hide his flusteredness behind his colourful words. He even went as far as falling asleep on your lap in wolf-form, making you happy he could trust you with the more vulnerable side of him.
You were at home, about to leave to meet Bakugou, when you heard some commotion outside. You were about to check when you heard the door break open. “Find them!” you heard a loud voice say. Your blood ran cold. The hunters? Why were they so set on revenge? You heard something break as they stormed through your house. Before you could grab something to defend yourself, one of them burst into your room, causing you to freeze. “There you fucking are,” he said moving towards you, blocking the exit. Thinking fast, you opened the window next to you and jumped out. Thankfully, it was close to the ground, so you easily picked yourself up and you ran, not daring to look back, but you heard them shouting and running after you. You sprinted down the familiar path, calling for Bakugou as you did. “Goddammit, where are you Bakugou?” you yelled as the hunters gained on you, when-
“The HELL you fuckers think you’re doing, HAH?”
You had never felt so relieved to hear his voice. “Bakugou!” “Stay behind me,” was all he said before going absolutely feral. He beat them up in no time, then watched as they ran away in terror. When he made sure they were gone, he turned to you, anger dissipating, his eyes filled with worry. “You ok?” You nodded weakly, then raised your arm, showing him the wound you had gotten when one of the hunters had shot at you. “It’s not bad, don’t worry. The bullet didn’t hit me, just grazed my skin.” “Shit,” Bakugou cursed as he took your arm in his hand, examining it. “That’s definitely more than a fucking graze.” “It’ll heal, I’m good at first aid,” you said. Bakugou looked at you, incredulous. “Dumbass, this needs more than first aid, are you really that stupid? Don’t move,” he said as his hands began to glow. He positioned them above your wound, using his power to heal you. “Thanks, Bakugou,” you said when he was done. “Really, I appreciate everything.” “Katsuki,” he said, not looking at you. “Huh?” you said, confused. “Call me Katsuki, dumbass.” A playful smile made its way on your lips. “Sure, when you call me Y/N.” He chuckled, then looked at you with a serious gaze. “I want you to stay with me.” You looked at him, dumbfounded. “W-What? What do you mean?” “Your home isn’t safe anymore. Those hunters could come back anytime, I went easy on them. I need you to be safe, Y/N, I-” he ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. “What would’ve happened to you if I wasn’t there? Just… please, become my mate Y/N. I’ll do anything for you, I’ll hunt for you, protect you, anything you want.” You were stunned, trying to process what he had just asked. “Y-You want me to be your… your mate? Why? And why would someone like you care so much about someone like me when no one really ever has?” He blushed, looking away to glare at the grass. “Fuck, I don’t know, maybe it’s caz I fucking love you, dumbass.”

Say… Who do you belong to?
Tumblr media
○ Pairing: Ushijima Wakatoshi x reader, mention of Oikawa ○ Words: 7.675  ○ Genre: Mafia-AU, NSFW, Smut, 18+ ○ Warning: noncon! oral, force, gun play, slightly breath play, violence, slightly manipulation, daddy kink, blood, pain, rape, dark content, 18+, Minors DNI! ○ Note: All characters are grown up! This fic contains dark content! ○ This fic is part of a server collab. The masterlist can be found here 
Prompt: "I wonder what he'd do if he knew you were with me right now."
Summary: You are Oikawa’s most precious treasure. His beloved wife, whom he married a few years ago and with whom he had bought a wonderful house. But what you don’t know is that Oikawa has a lot of debts with a mafia boss, who suddenly pulls you out of your wonderful life and declares you as his victory. You’re husband and wife, so his debts are also yours, which you now have to settle with Ushijima.
Tumblr media
A little sleepy, you turn around a few times in bed. The fine silk sheets have nestled tightly around your body, flattering your contours, while the space next to you is cold and empty.
“Good morning, my precious angel.” The cheerful voice of your husband sounds as you feel the warm, soft lips of Oikawa on your shoulder blade and turn to him with a smile. “Good morning Tooru. Why are you up so early?” The moon is still bright in the sky, while the rest is adorned in darkness.
“I have to leave early today. But I’ll be back tonight, and then I’ll take good care of you.” Winking, he grins and gives you one last kiss before he walks out of your front door. You still don’t lose your smile when you look at the closed door. Because you are happy.
You have wonderful friends, a wonderful husband by your side you married a few years ago, a big house, and hopefully soon children who would make your life perfect.
With quiet music in the background, you stand in the kitchen and prepare Oikawa’s favorite food as you hear the door quietly open. First, you frown and are surprised that Oikawa is there so early, but the closer the steps are to you, the more uncomfortable the feeling in your stomach becomes.
These are not the steps of Oikawa. Besides, it’s two people you hear. Iwaizumi? No, he would always greet you loudly even before he took off his shoes. 
With shaky hands and a racing heartbeat, you reach for a large kitchen knife and hide behind the door. Two tall men, one with light hair and a dark look, the other with red hair and an almost demonic appearance, stand in the room and look around.
“Does this guy have a wife?” Ask one of the two indifferently as he points to the unfinished food. “Looks like there’s got to be a little Oikawa wifey around here somewhere.” The other grins and begins to giggle.
A wonder they haven’t noticed you yet. You could swear that if they turned off the music they could hear your heartbeat. You can’t fight two men this tall, maybe it’s better if you try to escape instead of attacking them. But maybe they are friends of Oikawa who want to surprise him?
But how did they get into your house without a key? Annoyed, the gray-haired man presses his hands to the hip and exposes a shiny metallic object. Your blood is freezing when you realize this object is a weapon.
You have to get out of here, and as if your body understands what you’re trying to tell, your legs are moving. Your ankles are almost white, so tight you hold the knife in your hand to prevent it from falling and making a sound.
Almost arriving at the door, the relief is already painting in your face as the wooden floor below you begins to creak. Your eyes are getting big, and now you know you have to run. But your legs are not fast enough against those of the tall man who pulls you back into the house with a loud shout.
“Who the fuck are you?” The tall man behind you calls while he pulls you to his back. With the knife, you try to attack him but only manage to graze his leg. But it’s enough to let go of you.
“You fucking whore, man!” He yells, his gun pointed at you, but you don’t listen, because you just want to get away. However, you won’t make it to the exit, as a dull sound echoes through the hallway, followed by your body sinking to the ground.
“Tendou… Did you just really knock her out with a pan?” Skeptically he looks at the red-haired man, the hands on his leg with the slight flesh wound. “Yes, of course. What were you gonna do? Shoot her in the leg? Come on, she’s a lady. So don’t disfigure her.” Smirks Tendou, and swings the pan back and forth in his hand.
“So what? We’re supposed to take Oikawa to Ushijima, not some woman.”, “Buuuuut, this isn’t just any woman. That’s Oikawa’s wife, and she’s cute. I’m sure Wakatoshi will like her. Maybe the idiot will pay his debts faster if he knows we have his pretty wifey.” The redhead interrupts him with a broad grin and squats down to lift your flaccid body.
Your head pulsates with pain as you open your eyes and try to straighten up your body. Everything is dark, only a moldy, metallic smell lies in the air. The floor below you feels wet and crumbly. Like you’re on a muddy underground.
Your clothes are already soaked and stink of a mixture of concrete, soil, and moisture. Where are you? In the dark, you grope along the wall until you reach a cold, iron door. From outside, you can hear the voices that you had in your head recently.
Just as you want to lean even closer to the door, you can hear the hinge clicking, how it is snapped up and you land on the floor. “Come with us.” Says the gray-haired man grimly, who now wears an improvised, sloppy bandage around his leg.
Motionless you sit on the floor and look at the two men puzzled before Tendou reaches out to you. “You’ll be fine. So come on.” Your body acts against your mind as you reach for his hand and he pulls you up with a jerk.
You walk up to a huge, imposing mahogany door with golden accents as the fierce man opens it next to you and the three of you enter. Just to meet a man who sits focused at his desk and writes something.
“What do you want, Tendou?” Without even raising his head, his deep voice fills the room. “You know, we didn’t find Oikawa, but we have something much better. His beloved wife.” Tendou hums happily as he steps forward. “Oh? So… What am I supposed to do with a woman? I can’t do anything with that thing.” He hisses indifferently and frowns.
The words ‘I told you’, are written in the face of the gray-haired man as he looks at Tendou, shaking his head. 
“Then you bastards can finally let me go!” You shout to the two men and try to get away from their grips when Ushijima looks up to you in amazement. He does not know whether it is the sound of your voice or this angelic but also fiery charisma, but somehow you seem to have awakened his interest in you. 
Maybe it’s because you belong to Oikawa and don’t belong to him. After all, Oikawa, for reasons inexplicable to Ushijima, hates him. Probably because he could never defeat him and had to admit that he would have taken a better, more successful path if he had gone with Ushijima.
It’s Oikawa who has a lot of debt to Ushijima, not the other way around. So what would happen if he took away the most important thing in his life? He’d have nothing. Right, his world would break in pieces.
But whatever it is, he can’t keep his eyes off yours. “This is Oikawa’s wife?” He finally says and puts the pen out of his hand to stand up and walk in your direction with quiet steps. Now that he’s standing in front of you, a cold shudder runs along your spine.
He is a real appearance as he stands so large and broad in front of you, his eyes sharp as a freshly sharpened knife. With an annoyed sound, he lowers his gaze, his big, cold hand on your chin, forcing you to look at him directly.
Only a few steps separate you from each other and you sense how a masculine, strict cologne flows through your nose. “Yeah, she’s quite pretty, but also cheeky, isn’t she?” Tendou giggles and looks with narrow eyes over to the gray-haired one, who rolls only displeased with the eyes.
With his fingers, he moves your face back and forth, brushes his thumb over your mouth, checks you out, before he lets go of you and looks at his friend and best man Tendou. Shortly after he takes his thumb off your mouth, you feel a metallic unpleasant taste on your tongue. Almost like the taste of fresh gunpowder.
What is all this about? Why are you here and what were they talking about earlier. What is Oikawa involved in? And worst of all, why didn’t he ever tell you? After all, you are his wife. 
“Maybe she’s good for something. Perhaps he’ll pay his debts when he knows his wife is with us.” Ushijima clicks his tongue, turns around, and sits back in his chair. His debts? “Tooru has no debts! We are doing well. We bought a wonderful house!” You respond to him with a trembling voice.
“Oh yes? And how do you think he managed to raise the money for your house? Believe me when I tell you he’s in debt, or not. Apparently, he doesn’t care about you enough to share his dark secret with you.” He says monotonously, looking back at the paper on his desk.
“You’re lying!” your screaming voice sounds, which is provided with a touch of insecurity. Because you don’t want to believe this man. “Hey, don’t yell at our boss like that, you stupid bitch!” You had almost forgotten the gray-haired man when he looked at you grimly and stepped in front of you.
“Don’t call her that, Semi. She must have a name, right?” Even if he still doesn’t look at you, you sense how the question is directed at you. Stubbornly you press your lips together as if you want to signal them that you won’t tell them anything, but then you see Semi moving his hand towards his weapon and open your mouth. “Oikawa…. Oikawa Y/n…” you answer with a little resistance in your voice.
“Good Y/n, Semi will take you to the guest room next to mine and clean you up. Dress her up and then lock the door behind you if you leave her alone.” He just wants to say something about this task because he obviously doesn’t like you, but he stops since he doesn’t want to contradict his boss.
“Come now.” He just hisses annoyed, while he grabs you roughly by the arm and pulls you out of the room, into a spaciously beautiful room, with a large bed and a wonderful wardrobe. Pictures decorate the walls, the light on the ceiling is so bright that you forget to stand in a room without windows.
Violently, Semi puts you in a room connected to yours, so you’re standing in the middle of the bathroom. “Take off your clothes.” You feel his hand in your back pushing you to the shower with a shovel.
“I’m not gonna undress in front of some creepy guy like y-”, “Shut up, little doll! You’re nowhere near the first woman I see naked, so stop acting like that, and start taking your clothes off, or I’ll rip them off of your body!” He stops you loudly and grabs your wrist to pull you against him and roughly tear on your top.
“Stop it!” you roar and bite him in the arm with all your strength. Angry, he shakes you away from himself and wants to pull out his gun when a hand from behind stops him. “Hehe, what’s going on Semi Semi? Are you mad that there are also women who don’t spread their legs when they see you?” Tendou chuckles, who steps out behind Semi’s back.
“You take care of that bitch, I’m gone.” Without even looking in your direction, he turns around and disappears, followed by a loud bang of the wooden door.
“Come on, sit on the bed.” Tendou tries to calm you down and puts himself a piece away from the door frame to let you through. You don’t know why, but he seems to be the nicest one here so far, so you nod and follow his instructions.
Just as he opens his mouth to say something, you hear the door open again, and next to Semi now Ushijima, their boss comes in. Directly, Tendou takes a step away from you and pursues his boss with his eyes, who sits next to you, with a gun in his lap on the bed.
Right away, you start to hold your breath because you’re sure he’s gonna kill you now that you’ve disfigured his colleague. With his free hand, he brushes a strand of hair off your face and clamps it behind your ear to then pull your face in his direction.
“You know, Y/n, I don’t like it when someone attacks my men. No matter how pretty and innocent that person may be. But neither do I like it when my men don’t handle women properly. Believe me when I tell you nothing will happen to you as long as you stick to the words of your master, your daddy. Do as I say, and you and your pretty face are safe with me.” he breathes to you with his deep voice that makes your whole body shudder again.
“Tendou, I’ll leave her to you. Do what Semi couldn’t do. Next time I come back in here, I want her done for me.” are his last words before he leaves you alone in the room with Tendou.
You’re supposed to be ready for him? What is this man up to with you? “Hey, don’t look like a deer in the headlight.”  Tendou’s laughing voice gets you out of your mind. Humming he moves towards the cabinet and opens it to push the hangers back and forth. “I think this should fit you.” Happily, he turns to you and holds a beautiful set of lingerie in his hands, purple fine lace, with black leather straps and a short silk gown.
You’d think it’s beautiful if you knew you were wearing it for Oikawa, but you’re supposed to be wearing it for another man? Now you can also guess what Ushijima meant when he said you should be ready for him.
Suddenly your eyes fill with tears and before you know it, these are caught by Tendou’s thumbs. “You heard Wakatoshi, you’ll be fine as long as you do what he wants. Believe me, he would never hurt you. He’s a good man, so come with me. I’ll give you a nice warm bath, leave the door open, and wait for you in the bedroom.” He smiles and brings the clothes to the bathroom.
The water comes out loud from the tap and fills the bathtub as you walk carefully towards Tendou. “Why are you being so nice to me?” You want to know from him. “I have no reason to be mean to you.” You hear his voice and how he checks with his finger if the water temperature is good. “The water’s good, so clean up and put your clothes in the hamper over there, the maid will take the laundry and clean it so you can get it back. I’ll wait outside.” 
As he said, he leaves the bathroom door open but doesn’t look your way. Thoughtfully you look at the lingerie and after a few moments get out of your wet, musty clothes to get into the warm water. The warm water kisses your body, your eyes get heavier and before you know it, you close your eyes and listen to the sparkling foam.
Uncomfortable you go into the bedroom, even if you find yourself beautiful in this lingerie and it fits surprisingly well as if it was made for you. But knowing that another man sees you as your beloved husband makes you want to throw up.
“If you get hungry, knock on the door. If Wakatoshi is not in your room, I’ll be in front of it. Water is next to your bed. Well, I’ll see you then.” Without even looking in your direction, Tendou says goodbye to you and leaves you alone in the room.
Shortly after you hear the door closing, you look around hastily to see if you have a chance to escape in this windowless room. Next to the bathroom door and the front door, there’s another door that leads to a room you don’t know. But of course, this door is locked, so you are looking for an item that may help you escape. Even here, in vain.
Crying, you crawl into a corner and slump on the floor, knees tightly pulled to your chest. Why didn’t Oikawa ever tell you anything? Why didn’t he trust you? Could it be that this man was right and you weren’t enough for Oikawa? No, it can’t be!
You don’t know how much time has passed since only this ceiling light illuminates the room. But the clicking of the door makes you twitch. Tired, you lift your head and see blurred, how a large, strong person enters the room. Ushijima Wakatoshi.
He sits down in front of you, looking into your swollen face as he presses a cold metallic object against your chin and makes you look into his eyes. “Ah, ah baby girl, look what you’ve done with your pretty face. It’s all swollen up.” Full of fear but also hate you look him in his dark olive eyes. He’s a handsome man, yet you hate him for taking you away from your husband.
“You don’t have to look at me like that. It’s your husband’s fault you’re here now, not with him. But don’t worry, you’ll soon think of other things than your husband. The bed, lie on it!” He commands bossy, and quickly straightened up.
But you just shake your head. “Don’t be silly, baby girl.” His deep voice enters your ears, and even before you can open your mouth, you feel the chilly opening of his weapon lying on your temple.
Instinctively, your eyes fill with new tears running warmly down your cheeks, and your body moves against your will to crawl on the bed. “Please, I didn’t do anything.” You beg him because you just want to get out of here.
But he gives you no answer, just looks at you with his indifferent look, the gun in his hand at all times, while he gradually lets his clothes slide to the ground. Freed from his clothes, he stands before you, a few scars drawing his perfect muscular skin.
Even though you’ve been crying all the time, your eyes only burn more when you see how huge his member is, which still hangs flaccidly between his legs. It’s not even erect, yet you know it would never fit into you without hurting you.
Sobbing, you look from this massive thing between his legs up into his eyes that send out anything but warmth and ask him to let you go. “Stop talking so much. Use your sweet mouth and suck on my cock just like it should be for a good baby girl. Show your daddy that you’re worth treating you well.” 
His words make your stomach twist, you get unwell as you look at him in disgust. But it was stupid of you to think that you could defend yourself against such a tall, strong man. Because just as you’re trying to shake your head, you feel his cold hand burying itself in your hair and pulling you roughly forward, the other hand with the gun to your temple.
“Suck it!” His patience has disappeared when he angrily gives you this command, presses his limb literally into your whiny face. Afraid to hear the trigger go off, you open your mouth and start to put his cock in your trembling mouth.
You just have the tip in, when you realize that it is much too big for you so that you’re about to throw up. Fearing for your life, you still try to stick it in, but quickly realize that you are beginning to choke and fresh tears appear in the corners of your eyes. 
“Oh? Does your beloved Oikawa have such a tiny cock or why would you have problems with gagging after not even half of my dick?” His words are accompanied by a deep, barely audible laughter as he plunges his limb into your mouth with a jerk and makes you open your eyes full of pain and shock.
Reflexively, you support your hands against his thighs and try to prevent him from pushing his dick even deeper into your throat. His hand buried in your hair moves your head back and forth.
The only sound you hear is your sniffing, your swallowing, and the increasingly audible groan of Ushijima, whose cock grows painfully fast in your mouth and makes you gag every time its tip kisses your palate.
“Your mouth does it so well, it takes my length so well. Let’s see if you can absorb and swallow daddy’s sperm as good.” He mutters one last time before he presses his limb full strength into your throat and colors it white.
Next to his dick, which still twitches in your throat, you feel the warm sperm, running thickly down your inside. Just when he hears you swallow his cum, he pulls his cock out of you and takes his hand off the back of your head.
Only a mixture of sperm and saliva binds you together before this thread tears and sticks to your chin. You look so cute, lying on the bed in his favorite lingerie, adorned with his cum, and looking at him like a lost puppy. 
But this wonderful view does not remain for long, because you turn around against his command and want to crawl away from him.
You want to get away from the man who used you as a toy for his desires. You feel disgusting, used. But again, you have to admit to yourself that you’re stupid, for just following your will.
Suddenly you feel an arm wrap around your waist and jerk you backward. As if you are smashed against a wall, your body lands on Ushijima’s chest. “Where are you going huh?” His husky voice is dangerously close to your ear as you feel his hand crawling under the silk coat and caressing the outline of your body.
“Oh? You don’t think that satisfies me, do you? Oikawa has a lot of debts. You’re husband and wife, so it’s your debt too. So if he can’t pay the debt, I guess you’ll have to take them over.” He adds indifferently as he pins you down on the bed, his chest still on your back so that you are prevented from fleeing. “Please, I don’t want to, I’m scared.” You sniff under him and keep squeezing your legs together, afraid of what’s about to happen to you.
“Don’t be scared, baby girl. I’ll make it fit.” It’s not just the gun you feel cold on your spine. No, you also feel Ushijima’s stiff cock on your back, as it painfully reminds you that everything that happens now will be unpleasant.
You just hated Oikawa for not telling you about the debt and getting you into this situation, even though you still love him. But how could he do this to you? Just leave you to a mob boss who will do what he wants with you or shoot you if you don’t obey him.
You feel his legs on your inner thighs and how they spread them with force, so that Ushijima can get better access to your most sensitive body part. With pleasure, he licks his lips as he begins to knead your ass and slowly work his way up to your walls.
“No, please…” You whine when you feel his fingers on your skin as they try to break up your walls to get into your entrance. Calmly, he savors your soft skin as he goes up and down, exerting pressure on your clit to then get back to your entrance to check if you are getting wet by now.
But to his dismay, you’re not. You try to prevent your body from feeling good, which is not difficult for you, as you are forced to do so, and besides this man is not someone you love. “How unsatisfying.” He just hisses displeased, takes his hand off you, and lifts his chest slightly, so that you take the opportunity to tear yourself away from him and crawl away.
In vain, because aggressively he pins you back on the bed now fully in rage, and constricts the air to breathe away, from behind. It’s almost as if he knows exactly when your lungs are starting to hurt and your vision becomes unclear when he reduces the pressure on your neck and after a few seconds his big hand loops around your tender neck like a snake. 
“Now I’ve had enough of you! I’ve told you I’m good to you as long as you follow my orders but apparently I have to show you where your place is!” He calls to you angry and presses with force his rock hard, massive cock into your dry entrance.
“Ahhh stop!” You scream in pain as you feel this thing aggressively getting in and making everything in you pound. Everything in you burns, contracts, pulsates, and hurts extremely. You have the feeling that he tears your womb into pieces and senses an unpleasant wet feeling spreading between your legs.
You know it’s not your juices, rather your blood, which promotes Ushijimas movements and helps him to penetrate deeper and more aggressively.
"Look what we did to you, if you’d listened to me, this would have been different.” You hear his strained voice behind you, as it makes you understand that here you are nothing but just a toy for him, which should obey him.
And you have to admit that if you want to get out of here alive with no pain, no visible wounds, you have to do what he tells you to do. Crying, you admit that your body is being used by a man other than your husband.
“You do it well, don’t fight back baby girl.” He praises you as his movements get sloppy and he pulls his cock out of you to spread his warm cum on your back. He proudly looks at his masterpiece before he takes a handkerchief from the nightstand and cleans himself.
Relief draws your face. While all of this seems to be over for today, even if everything in your body continues to hurt. Yet you remain anxiously lying down, as you do not dare to move and be used again by him.
But to your astonishment, you feel incredibly soft, warm lips on your shoulder blade lingering lovingly for a moment before they let go of you just to then caress your arm afterward. “You know, it doesn’t have to be like this if you don’t fight back.”, “Leave me alone!” Your voice is dull under the blanket.
“Well… until then Y/n.” One last time you feel his warm lips on your arm, as only a few seconds later you hear the door closing. Irritated, you turn around, only to find out that Ushijima is no longer there.
Deep breathing, straightening up, you pull your legs closer to your upper body and bury your head inside them.
“You know, Wakatoshi is actually a very great man.” All of a sudden you hear a voice that strangely gives you a sense of security, followed by a soft, slightly damp towel that gently moves over your back. 
With your eyes still slightly closed, you look aside to find Tendou looking at you with a wide smile and cleaning your body without even looking at your most feminine parts.
“You should be grateful he found something in you. Normally, he would take pieces of body parts from you. First a strand of hair, a finger, your tongue… Something every day until Oikawa pays his debts. But you seem to be an exception here. So don’t blame him for your husband getting you into this.” Even though his words are anything but reassuring, it is his look and tenderness with which he helps you get up into the bathroom.
"Do you understand how good he is? He lets you sleep here in a great room instead of locking you down in the dark basement. So be a good girl and listen to your new friend Tendou." He whispers in your ear with a slim grin, just before he leaves the room.
Still shaking, you let the warm water splash over your body, trying somehow to wash yourself clean and think about Tendou’s words. Somehow he is right, after all, it’s not Ushijimas fault. Oikawa is the one who lied to you, not him. Still, he didn’t treat you very kindly.
Completely torn back and forth, you go back to the bedroom, where Tendou has already re-made the bed and waits for you with a drink. “What is this, Tendou?” You ask him confused while he reaches out to you.
“Just a tea, that makes you sleep well.” He smiles and waits for you to drink the delicious-tasting tea. “Lie down, I’ll see you tomorrow.” With these words, he says goodbye and leaves you alone in the room.
You notice how your eyes get heavier, your thoughts blurred and how you suddenly collapse on the bed and fall asleep.
The next few weeks are just like your first day here. You don’t know if Ushijima enters the room every day to sleep with you or if he does it several times a day or just every few days because you don’t have a sense of time anymore.
No matter how many times you have to think of Tendou’s words, in the end, you try to defend yourself, and again everything hurts in retrospect. However, you hate your husband every day more for what he did to you and therefore feel increasingly connected to Ushijima.
It’s probably also Tendou’s words that subconsciously manipulate you. How precious you are to Ushijima. That everyone can see it and you will see and understand it as well when you finally give yourself to him.
Forget your scheming husband, who abandoned you. 'Cause, only Ushijima would be the man to please and protect you. 
Yes, it was Tendous words… Because the last time Ushijima sleeps with you, you notice how your body builds up less resistance. Ushijima knows it won’t take long before he owns you until you belong to him and not Oikawa.
Today you wear his favorite lingerie, the one in which he likes you in so much, in which he looks at you hungrily.
You’re just waiting for Ushijima to enter the room and do what he usually does to you. And when he finally enters the room, undressing wordlessly, as you go straight to your knees without resistance to take his cock in your mouth, he knows exactly that he has broken your will.
A barely visible grin draws the corner of his mouth before he approaches you and looks down into your eyes from above. “Get up. Not today.” Are the only words that come out of him while you look at him puzzled when he pulls you up by your hair. “Come with me.” He adds and points to the door, where you have asked yourself until now where this leads only to find out that this guides exactly to his bedroom.
A huge room with ground-level windows that provide a view of the snow-covered forest and a frozen river illuminate the room in an almost romantic atmosphere. It looks like the sun is about to set because the darkness is slowly coming out.
In the room is expensive furniture, a huge king-size bed, with gray-golden silk sheets. It looks so incredibly soft and the rest of the room just leaves you amazed, standing on a spot, until you feel a hand on your back moving you towards the bed.
You can feel his cold fingertips skilfully opening your bra and sliding down to the floor along your body, followed by your panties kissing the floor just seconds later. With a push, he shoves you onto his bed, which catches your body with ease and looks at you with fiery eyes.
“What do you think? Do we need it today?” His lust-filled voice resounds as he holds his cold weapon against your nipple and stares at you as he slowly strolls down to your entrance with the weapon and lingers there.
A feeling that you previously only knew at Oikawa, spreads within you. You sense the area between your legs getting wet from the cold metal, from Ushijima’s look when you pinch them together and a shudder runs along your spine.
With glowing cheeks you playfully bite your lower lip and shake your head embarrassed, your eyes focused on Ushijima’s. You don’t miss his quiet laughter when he looks into your beautiful, scattered face and knows exactly that you squeeze your legs together because you are only excited by the touch of his weapon.
That’s exactly what he wants to see, his baby girl begging for him and his cock, which only wants him and no one else. Not even her beloved husband Oikawa. Without you having to touch his cock, it grows along with the thought of making you his woman.
He would have liked to see Oikawa’s face when his beloved wife knelt for his rival without resistance, only to suck on his cock and milk him. But it is even better to know that you got involved with Ushijima, that you understand that you are his and he can take care of you much better than Oikawa.
He proudly puts the gun on his nightstand and pulls you by your legs to the edge of the bed to suck fervently on the inside of your thighs, to kiss them, and to work himself down to your entrance. 
His touches are like a drug for you, you can’t and won’t get enough of them. From these kisses that tell you he’s proud to have you. When you feel his breath on your wet walls, you shrug briefly and tilt your pelvis down. “Ushijima, that feels so good.” You moan softly and tilt your head backward as you startle with a slap on your sensitive walls.
“Ah, ah… Are you trying to be naughty again? Have you forgotten what to call me?” He hisses in a husky voice as his olive eyes come up between your legs and stare at you. “D- Daddy… Sorry, daddy…” you correct yourself and wait for the praise of Ushijima. “That’s my good baby girl.” He answers you with a grin and turns back to your walls.
His eyes are on your face as he circles his fingers around your entrance, slowly enveloping them with your juice, and watching you groan with the feeling of having his index and ring finger in you, the thumb on your clit to give you a benevolent feeling there as well.
“Daddy you’re so good to me!” You groan as you feel his fingers explore your walls and bend to meet exactly the right spot. How your cheeks gain even more warmth, your nipples become stiff and your body moves willingly, drives him crazy.
He still moves his fingers in you before he replaces his thumb with his lips and sucks on your clit, licks over it, blows against it, and starts sucking it again. “Come for me baby girl.” His voice vibrates on your skin as you feel the knot loosen inside you, your legs start to shake while squeezing his head, and your eyes roll backward. “Damn it, daddy I’m coming.” You groan as you push your pelvis further to Ushijima and cover his lips with your juice.
Without changing his expressions, he licks your delicious juice off your lips and pulls his fingers out of you just to leave a bitter void in you. He carefully inspects his fingers, which shine in the yellowish light of the lamp, and looks down at you as you lie out of breath with an open mouth in front of him, legs still shaking, beautiful for him to look at. 
“Suck on them, clean them up! Do what your daddy tells you to do.” You can feel his deep voice on your neck and how he puts his fingers in your mouth. Reflexively, you seek contact with his eyes as you begin to wrap your tongue around his fingers and suck loudly at them.
His gaze is razor-sharp as his olive-colored eyes look at you and enjoy the sight. “Tell me, baby girl, do you want my cock in you? Do you deserve it?” He wants to know from you while his fingers leave your mouth with a loud plop.
"Yes daddy, please give me your cock!" You’re begging him. This desire to absorb his length fully in you is so huge. Which only makes Ushijima happier, and makes him enter inside you piece by piece. 
Unlike the weeks before, he is so careful and gentle, making sure you don’t have any pain. "Nnngh…" You groan as you feel every vein of its length painfully spreading your inner walls. But the pain is different than usual, it is pleasant in an odd way. 
"Are you in pain baby girl? Shall I stop?" he asks rhetorically because he knows you don’t want him to leave a void in you again. 
"No, please! I want to feel your whole dick in my cunt daddy!" You say weeping and reach for his upper arms to stop him from going away from you.
Lovingly his arms wrap around your waist and pull you up so that he can get your delicate body just with one arm, holding you in the air, while his cock enters deeper into you. 
A prick spreads in your abdomen while you pinch your eyes together and bite your lip. "Nngh daddy your dick is too big…", "Oh? Too big for my pretty baby girl huh?" Interrupts his deep voice, just before he lays you gently on the bed and then squats in front of your entrance.
He gently caresses your legs before he spreads them with a little pressure, lifts them with his hands at your ankles, and presses his body against them to enter you with a loud murmur. 
Through this new angle, and by opening your legs so wide, his cock can enter you much more easily. He needs a few thrusts until his dick is wrapped in your juice and smoothly kisses your inner walls. 
With slim eyes he watches you as your breasts move up and down, his limb sinks into your sweet pussy, you lay awkwardly under him, not knowing where to put your body and the lustful feelings that want to get out of you. A sight that satisfies him incredibly and makes his member twitch in you. "Look, you are such a beautiful baby girl for me."
Even if you think it’s great that Ushijima praises you so much and gently touches your body, you want him to get rough and aggressive again. Because strangely enough, you have to admit that you find his rough nature as attractive and masculine and how he controls you.
"Ahh I want everything from you, show me you’re my strong daddy." You whine while tilting your head backward. "Oh? You want me to be rough with you? Well…" You hear his astonished deep voice as he begins to enter you faster and deeper.
"Nnngh so good, so good." You groan loudly at his sloppy, more aggressive thrusts, and feel his balls clap against your skin at every thrust. 
"Tell me how good it feels to have my dick inside of you Y/n." his husky voice sounds through the room, accompanied by the damp sound of your skin coming together. 
"So good daddy! Your massive cock feels so good in me, there’s no one who can fill me as perfectly as you!" You purr and push your pelvis deeper into the duvet to feel his limb even better in you.
With each powerful thrust, he hits just the right spot in you that takes you to the edge of your climax. 
"I wonder what he'd do if he knew you were with me right now." With a lustful look, he faces you while these words leave his mouth.
For a moment your eyes widen in panic because you have completely forgotten your husband. But what kind of husband is he, if he leaves you alone for weeks. 
"Tell me, baby girl, what would you do if he knew that you were with me and so willingly give yourself into me? Admitting that only I can really satisfy your needs, huh?" Hungry, his hand wanders from your ankle down to your neck and presses it lightly.
His big hand adorns your neck so beautifully. This feeling of power that is spreading within him, leads him to distribute his load within you soon. “I… don’t know…” You answer him, torn back and forth, since you would never want to see how broken and hurt Oikawa would be if he saw you with another man. But on the other hand, he abandoned you, lied to you, and Ushijima was the one who cared for you and didn’t kill you for the debts Oikawa has on him.
“I don’t think Oikawa would be so happy to see us here, huh? The way you so wonderfully wrap and squeeze around my cock. That feels so good baby girl. So tell me, who makes you happy? Who can make you orgasm?” He wants to know while he’s fucking your brains out.
You don’t know what to say anymore, you just know that your whole body is burning with lust, that this knot that has newly formed is tightening up harder as you know exactly that you will come any moment.
“Who, give me the name that makes you happy! I won’t let you come before you answer me.” Demands Ushijima, when even before he can finish his sentence you call his name. “Ushijima!”, “The whole name!” he orders again while slapping your breast, and again his name comes out under your trembling voice. “Ushijima Wakatoshi!” you cry out. 
“My name sounds so wonderful when you say it so needy. I’m going to shoot my cum so deep into your womb that you’re carrying my fucking kid Y/n Oikawa, or should I call you Y/n Ushijima from now on?” His voice is also getting throaty as his movements get harder so that you can’t hold back your voice any longer. 
Your walls contract and the knot in you, just like your mouth loosens and makes you roll your eyes backward in an incredibly benevolent desire.“Haaah Ushijima! I’m coming!” 
“Come for your daddy baby girl!” He growls almost animalistic as he accelerates his movements and presses his thick sperm into you with a loud moan. Out of breath, he collapses on you, his cock still twitches in you and remains there, so that his sperm stays in you.
Sweat drips down his temple, his skin sticks to yours, as you feel his breath loud and restless in the crook of your neck. The room, which had smelled so fresh earlier, now smells of sweat and sperm.
You feel so good with his warm body on top of you, his soft hair tickling your neck, and the loving kisses he spreads on your body while leaving little hickeys, to mark you as his.
But what you don’t notice is that Tendou, Semi, and especially Oikawa are standing in the door frame. Broken, his face dressed in tears he looks at you. His mouth glued with tape he tries to pull himself out of the clutches of the two men holding him. To get to you, to his most beloved precious wife, to tear you away from this monster. In vain.
But unlike you, Ushijima knew that Oikawa had been standing in the door for several minutes and watched him fuck his beloved woman. Taking the most important thing in his life will pay off any debt he owes. Having such a beautiful woman by his side is better than any money he can get.
“Get him down to the basement... and take the ring off of him. Because there’s no husband and wife Oikawa anymore. Y/n belongs to me… You’ll be a Ushijima soon.” His cold voice lies in the air as he reaches for your hand, pulls off the ring, and kisses you on the now-empty ring spot, his olive-colored eyes fixed on yours the whole time.
For a moment, you think you need to cry now that you know Oikawa’s heart has been shattered into thousands of pieces. However, these tears do not come. Without even looking at him, Oikawa is taken away by the men. 
Lost in your thoughts, you rub your thumb over the empty ring spot. But even before you can think about anything, Ushijima’s fingers make sure that you look him directly into the suddenly so warm eyes. 
“Y/n… You don’t have to be afraid anymore. No one will touch or hurt you, I’ll make sure of it. You belong with me now, my pretty baby girl.” His last words are so quiet that you can hardly understand them before he bends forward to give you a warm kiss that is full of love and passion, for the first time. “My pretty girl.” 
You don’t know if you would feel guilty if you looked Oikawa in the eye, or hate, or even feel nothing. But you know one thing…
You’re not Y/n Oikawa anymore.

crushing companions reacting to f!sole being caught under the mistletoe by someone who ISNT him?
omg, that’s so funny to think about. some are longer than others so i hope you don’t mind (also i got a little carried away). please enjoy! ❤️
i feel like i moved away from the topic but yknow.. ☠️
christmas/new years reacts are still open!
-
somehow, he was dragged into this and had no choice but to attend upon soles request, not being able to say no due to his obvious crush on her. now he was here, mindlessly listening to the chattering of the person who accompanied him during the party, being absolutely bored out of his mind despite the liveliness of the party. as the person continued on, words not being absorbed, his eyes scanned the area for sole, wanting to at least see her once during the whole event and hopefully strike a conversation before it ended.
he expected to see everything; her chatting with some people, maybe putting out some food, or playing with the kids, but what he didn’t expect was to find her under the mistletoe with someone else. someone that wasn’t him.
Danse:
his world stopped for a mere second, all his surroundings becoming blurred as he focused on the scene the raveled before him, unknowingly holding his breath while he did so. his mind slowly processed what was happening and once it completely settled in, a wave of genuine irritation and jealousy began to crash over him. danse being danse, he tries to keep his emotions under control as best as he can. on one hand, sole has the freedom to do anything and everything with anyone she pleases with... and on the other? he wants to pull her into his arms for him and him only.
as the person leans in for a kiss, he leaves no room for debate as he unconsciously rushes his way there, unable to cope with the idea of his precious crush sharing such contact with someone else. sole would yelp in shock as she was pulled away from the person without explanation. he ignored sole’s questions as he dragged her to a quiet corner, not thinking straight.
his eyes stayed on the individual, glaring at them silently with a displeased look as if sole wasn’t staring up at him with the most confused expression. the protective hold on her wrist never detached, the grip still as tight as when he first grabbed it.
she coughed to get his attention and his gaze immediately fell on her, forgetting that he had dragged her without a reason. he would be struck with horror, his heart stopping at the realization that he had done so without registering it. “so, uh. mind explaining what that was for?”
his face would go completely red, his mouth opening to respond, but much to his dismay, nothing came out. the words became tangled in his throat as he tried to come up with anything to cover him from the truth but eventually came to the conclusion that there was no way he could save himself at this point. swallowing nervously, he slowly slid the hand that grabbed her wrist to enevelope hers and with a flushed expression, he knew he had a lot of explaining to do. no better time to do it than christmas day, right?
Deacon:
if someone were to ask deacon why he was so afraid to fall in love again, this would be the exact reason why. he didn’t like the familiar feeling that began pooling in his stomach and the unwanted envy and insecurities that began to surface. instead of showing his discomfort, he smiled through it all and excused himself from the conversation, quickly sneaking up on them. he didn’t have a plan, but he knows damn well that he could at least make one.
before the person could lean in for a kiss, he’d pop out of no where, cutting the individual off even before they had the chance. with a “panicked” expression, he’d grab sole by the shoulder before she could let a word out, ignoring the confusion on her face. “charmer! i just came here to say...” he stopped for a moment, giving her the longest stare as the awkward silence began to build up, “..that you look great today, partner!”
she would send him a look of disbelief. “seriously, deeks? all that just to say i look good?”
“someone’s sounding a little ungrateful during the holiday season, tsk. a thank you would be nice.” he shook his head disapprovingly, both ignoring the individual that watched them dumbly, unsure of what to say. he then pointed to the door behind him while keeping a disappointed expression, “also, dogmeats totally destroying your vault suit.”
“he’s WHAT?!” sole nearly yelled, covering her moth instantly as she received stares left and right. with a paled expression, she’d laugh nervously and run towards the other way, excusing herself in a hurry. “sorry, gotta go!”
deacon would smile and pat himself on the back at the accomplishment of his mission. the person would be left dumbfounded at what just happened. “uhhh..”
with a smirk, he’d turn over to the individual and look up back at the mistletoe that hung above them. “so you gonna kiss me or what loverboy? these lips can’t wait forever.” and just like that, the person immediately shook their head and left the area with an embarrassed expression. he scoffed as he watched them drag away to another area of the party. that’ll teach them not to mess with him.
now he just needed to find another lie to tell sole when she realizes that dogmeat wasn’t at all destroying her vault suit but was instead sleeping by the fire.
Maccready:
maccready is many things; petulant, angry, and absolutely jealous to his core and does not bother to hide it. he disregards the person he’s talking to, immediately stomping off towards soles direction without a word spared to the individual that accompanied him. sole would hear the loud footsteps behind her and would turn around upon hearing the noise, seeing a red faced maccready making his way to them with the biggest scowl ever. the person would raise a brow, absolutely bewildered at macs behavior as they stepped forward in attempt to shield sole.
“hey man, you good-“
“take a hike, buddy.” mac shot back through gritted teeth, his tone full of venom. the persons confused and concerned expression would soon turn into a surprised one, full of disbelief at the words that left the mercenary’s mouth. before they could respond with just as much attitude, sole would stop the situation from escalating, a sweet tone in her voice.
“okay, okay. take it easy.” she cut in between the two heated individuals and slipped her hand in macs own, instantly earning a surprised and flustered from him. she looked at the person with a apologetic smile, “i’m sorry, please give us a moment.”
and just like that, she’d pull him to a more private area of the party, folding her arms with a demanding expression.
“what the hell was that?”
mac would try to pretend as if he was irritated, whining quietly but loud enough for her to hear. he’d throw his arms in the air dramatically in response, letting his emotions take over the best of him. “they were gonna kiss you!” then he began to panic more, realizing the position he dreadfully put himself in with little to no ways to take him out. “i mean- uh- they were gonna- i was-“
“so what if they were gonna kiss me?” she raised a brow, a small smirk forming on her face as she pieced together what was happening. “what then?”
“i- i-“ he began stammering, unable to find excuses this time around. he mentally beat himself up, instantly regretting the fact that he allowed his emotions to take control of the situation instead of his mind. ultimately, he gave up as soles eyes bored into him, his voice dying down into a quiet whisper. “i-i don’t know.”
sole would let out a laugh, entertained by his reaction, leaving mac a blushing and embarrassed mess as he looked towards the other direction, hands stuffed in his pockets. “don’t laugh at me.” he murmured, face growing more red.
she would immediately stop upon request but the smile on her face never left as she stepped forward, placing a hand on his bicep. “if you were trying to let me know you liked me, you got the message across.” mac grew rigid at the words that left her mouth but made no attempt to deny them, knowing the truth of it , “and just to give you a straight up answer..” she tiptoed and placed a quick kiss on his cheek, his eyes widening upon contact. he felt himself freeze at the softness of her lips.
“i like you too.” she whispered against his flushed skin and he nearly fainted from the intensity of the situation. what a way to celebrate christmas.
Hancock:
everyone knows hancock has it absolutely bad for sole, so for someone to approach her in such a brave manner secretly ticked him off. he saw the stupid ass smile that plastered that persons face and he wanted nothing more but to slap it off them. he’d look at the person accompanying him, holding a finger up to shush them for a moment with force, “hold that thought, sister/brother. got something i need to take care of.” and he’d immediately make his way to them, not wasting a precious second.
“sunshine!” he’d call out to sole with open arms and a smug smile, immediately attracting her attention away from the individual who wore an irritated expression upon seeing hancock. her face lit up with happiness, a grin stretching across her cheeks. “hey hancock!”
hancock would throw an arm over soles shoulders, gazing lovingly at them as she giggled. “looking beautiful as always, i see.” he chuckled at the redness forming on her cheeks. “so how’s my favorite girl doing?”
they’d continue on their conversation as if the other person wasn’t currently in their presence, wanting to continue where they left off. the endless compliments and inside jokes made them uncomfortable, unsure of what to do or say at the moment. “um hello?”
sole would smile sympathetically upon seeing the irritated expression on the persons face. “oh, sorry. got a little distracted.” hancock would cut in with a smirk, feeding off the persons reactions. “sorry brother/sister, we’re busy.” he pointed at the mistletoe above them, going straight to the point and sole let out a surprised, “huh?” with a flushed face. “now scram before i make you do it.”
the person cursed under their breath and stomped off elsewhere, leaving hancock satisfied and accomplished. sole would shyly look up at him. “so did you mean what you said or was that to help put me in a more comfortable position?”
he looked down at her, thinking for a moment but smiled warmly to ease her tension. “a mix of both, sunshine. if you’re still up for that kiss, i’d be more than happy to do so with your permission.”
she would become more flushed at his response but would grin happily. “you didn’t need a mistletoe to kiss me, hancock. i was more than willing to if you felt the same.”
“guess now we know, huh?” he’d whisper softly and tilt her chin up, slowly closing the distance between them both.
Nick Valentine:
nicks smile faltered in response, his eyes observing the scene before him for a little while. something in him throbbed with pain at the way the person smiled at her confidently as she stood still, not rejecting his offer and he took that as a sign that she allowed it. he excused himself from the conversation politely before it could happen and walked out of the room without a second thought to allow himself to have a breather. the muffled holiday music would fall on his ears as he took a seat on the patio, quietly attempting to push away the idea that sole was indeed having fun with someone else.
lighting up a cigerrate, he quietly watched the christmas lights that lit up the street with a sigh and took a drag, wanting to get the thought out of his mind as soon as possible. perhaps he’d head on back to diamond city as soon as he was done with his cigar, hopefully having the courage to thank sole for inviting him with a smile. nick wouldn’t realize how much time had passed or how long he’s been out in the cold until he heard a voice calling out his name faintly behind him.
“nick?” he’d look over his shoulder and immediately throw the cigar on the ground, stepping on it upon realizing who the voice belonged to. composing himself, he’d address her with a forced smile.
“hey there, doll.”
sole would smile back at him and stop in her tracks, looking at the empty spot near nick. “is this seat taken?”
“not at all. never taken for you.” sole giggled softly and sat near him, giving him some space. he quietly removed his jacket, placing it over her shoulders and she chortled, sending him a small thanks in return as she pulled the coat closer to her body. a silence surrounded the two for a moment before he broke it, not wanting to appear suspicious. “what brings you out here, doll?”
sole thought for a moment before responding, “i just came here to check on you.” she said with a worried smile, “i saw that you weren’t around and well.. they told me you just suddenly up and left the party, so i just had to check.”
he smiled, a warm feeling filling his body. even at times where she was occupied by other things, she still cared about his well being. “i’m doing just fine, no need to worry. besides, i know you’re busy with your date, so i wanted to give you some space.”
“my.. what?” she was pulled back at the words that left his mouth but then responded quickly upon realization, “oh! you mean the person you saw me with? no, no, nick that’s a misunderstanding!” she laughed. “they were just doing that whole mistletoe tradition thing, yknow. where they kiss and stuff... but i’m pretty sure you know about it.”
he gazed at her as she continued to speak, pausing in between as she processed her thoughts. she stared at the ground. “i didn’t kiss them though. i rejected them and told them i wasn’t interested.”
a sudden flood of relief washed over nick and he let out a breath he never knew he was holding, the dreading feeling in his chest immediately turning into nothing. “is that so?”
“yeah. i had other plans too, so it just wouldn’t work out either way.” she smiled with a blush, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. he looked at her with a curious expression. “did you manage to get around to those ‘other plans’?”
she blushed and scooted closer to him, leaning in to place a kiss on his cheek softly, immediately sending him to shock. his eyes fell on her the moment he realized what was happening and felt something inside him whir loudly. once she pulled away, she grinned at him shyly with a completely flushed face. “i have now.” she beamed happily as he touched the spot where she kissed, a smile of his own growing. “merry christmas, nick.”
he pulled her in, wrapping both his arms around her and kissed her temple lovingly as he whispered.“merry christmas, sole.” sole let out a pleased sigh at the contact, melting into his embrace.
Sturges:
sturges would swallow with a small, forced smile, trying to hide his discomfort in front of the eyes of others. much to his luck, he was great at doing that. his eyes would remain on her, not being able to avert it elsewhere no matter how hard he tried. despite his strange change of behavior, he’d still try to contribute the the conversation he was held hostage in, but give shorter replies, uninterested. a series of ‘uh-huh’, ‘yeah’, and hums would leave his mouth instead of well thought replies as he continued to focus on the scene nearby.
once sole presented a sign of discomfort that he was well aware of, he’d immediately excuse himself as apologetic as possible, quickly pacing to her. as he made it closer to them, he’d speak with a friendly tone, not wanting to make the situation worse. “hey now, is everythin’ alright here?” his eyes would flicker from sole for a while and then to the person who stood in front of her, a scowl on their face as they looked straight at him. he didn’t mind; if it meant irritating the person away from sole as far as possible, then so be it. he had no plans to leave now and he definitely wasn’t going to do so, even at soles commands.
“yeah, it’s just fine.” they said with an annoyed tone and sturges would reply with just as much attitude. “i wasn’t askin’ you.” he would then turn back to sole who smiled at him with relief, and he knew he made the right decision. “i’m okay, sturges.”
“i hope this fella wasn’t botherin’ ya too much, sole.”he commented loud enough for them to hear and their face went red with anger as they shot him a glare. “whatever, man.” and would stalk off towards the other direction with mumbled insults.
he’d sigh disapprovingly as he watched the person walk off childishly and then look back at her with a smile. “you okay, sweetheart?”
“of course i am. i was about to tell him off anyway.” she smiled happily at him and he felt his heart melt at the sight. “i’m glad you stepped up and saved me the trouble though. i really appreciate it.”
“no need for a thank you. i just did what was right.”
sole laughed and tiptoed, resting a hand on his cheek and before sturges could react, she placed a lingering kiss on his cheek, closing her eyes in bliss as she did so. once she retreated, she caught the familiar crimson that dusted his cheeks and giggled at the surprised expression on his face.
“my way of saying thank you since you won’t accept it and, uh..” she pointed at the mistletoe above them and he smiled nervously, letting out a shaky laugh. “gotta follow the tradition, yknow?”
“well, ain’t that a lovely way to say thank you.”
she nodded, taking both his hand in hers and stepped closer so that he could hear her murmur. “hope you don’t mind me saying thank you like that from now on.”
he leaned his forehead on hers and chuckled. “not at all.”
Preston:
preston would immediately show reaction to it, his smile dropping completely and his eyes widening in what seemed like terror and devastation. the words around him would become nothing but static and the music would be blurred as he felt time slow down. he knew sole deserved the best, but deep down, he hoped he was the best for her and maybe this was just the answer he was waiting for all along. with a heavy heart, he’d look away from the scene before it could happen and grow uncharacteristically silent throughout the whole conversation. he didn’t even bother to spare a second glance and tilted his hat down, afraid of what he’ll see.
when sole approached him later that night during the party, he jolted and automatically felt his heart drop as he met eyes with the one person he had it bad for. he tried his best to pull a smile but failed miserably as it looked absolutely forced.
“hey preston, not enjoying the party or something?” she said quietly, taking a seat next to him on the couch. the concern on her face meant she was picking up the unusual signs he was exhibiting and he felt panicked, knowing there was no escape.
“just not feeling it, that’s all.” he responded, looking back down at his drink on in his hand.
“we both know that’s a lie, preston. i can see right through you.” well it was worth a shot. “mind telling me what’s on your mind?”
he thought for a moment, wondering if it was worth telling sole about his feelings at this point since he had already gotten his answer. maybe he could fake it with a smile and carry on with the conversation casually in hopes that she’ll eventually drop it or maybe he could excuse himself elsewhere for the rest of the night to think to himself. instead, he just let out a deep breath and put down his drink.
“mind if we talk outside then?” sole smiled and nodded, standing from the couch and offered him a hand to help him up. they exited the building and walked down the quiet streets of sanctuary, side by side. sole remained quiet, waiting for preston to break the silence instead of forcing it out of him.
“you know what i’m about to tell you, i hope it doesn’t change anything between us.” he filled the stillness of the air and felt a small hand gently grab his bicep to stop him from walking any further. he looked back and caught the reassuring smile on her face. “you know it won’t change anything.”
he looked down at his feet, a blush forming on his face. “i know.” he breathed, “ i know it wont. you’re not like that.” she let out a hum of agreement.
“i guess.. i guess i was just upset that i saw you with someone else under the mistletoe.” he murmured, voice dying down the more he spoke, “and that i lost my chance.”
sole looked at him, baffled for a moment. “lost your chance? what do you mean?” he picked up his head to gaze at her with a defeated smile, lightly scratching the nape of his neck. “to tell you i like you, i guess. seems like someone already beat me to it.”
“what?” she looked confused and stepped forward, trying to explain herself, “preston, you’ve got it all wrong. i didnt kiss them! i left to go find you after i checked up on a few people.”
he stood there, wide eyed while trying to process the words that left his mouth and he realized in horror that he based off things due to his assumptions. “i- uhm, excuse me? you didn’t uh-“
“no, i didn’t kiss them preston and well, you could say i know who i want.” she grinned happily at him with a blush on her cheeks, keeping her hand on his bicep. he felt his heart beat loudly against his chest and he was caught off guard upon registering what she meant. “oh. oh!” a smile slowly grew on his face as he beamed at sole, holding both her shoulders in excitement. all signs of devastation and sadness immediately washed away as if it wasn’t there in the first place. “that’s - that’s great! oh my god! i-i don’t know what to say!”
“you don’t need to say anything.” sole laughed and moved her hand to his cheek, brushing her thumb over his skin. “just kiss me. you know, a celebratory one.. since it’s christmas and as my way of saying i feel the same way.” he nodded, leaning in to connect their lips.
“of course.”
Gage:
as if this party wasn’t bad enough already; the person talking was annoying the shit out of him and now the only person he’s ever had a crush on was being hit on by some low life. his scowl that was already there would only deepen more upon seeing that unsettling scene but would watch from afar, hand ready on his gun just in case some funny business were to arise. as much as he wants to put a bullet right between their eyes, he resists, waiting for some kind of signal from sole to give him the go.
without looking at the person who accompanied him, he’d speak gruffly, his expression absolutely twisted in anger. “shut the fuck up, will ya?” and they did, slowly sliding away from him in fear. he kept his eye on her, patience running thin as they grew closer to sole by the second. the second their hand stroked her arm flirtatiously, he snapped and made his way to them without a second thought, hand already drawing his gun.
“youd look better with a smile.” they commented as sole rolled her eyes, obviously unintimidated by their behavior. the sound of a gun cocking behind the person would stop her from responding and she’d peek behind them, seeing a furious gage glaring at the back of their head. the room went quiet, watching the scene before them but not daring to butt in, knowing gage was a tough one to take down. after all, they knew the safest route to this was for sole to take care of the situation before it escalated.
“and you’d look better with red,” he threatened, pressing the gun harder against the back of their head. “lots of it.”
the individual would turn a deathly white as they shook in fear, paralyzed. through stuttered words, they’d try to explain themselves, “i-i-its a tradition, the mistletoe! it’s - it’s just something w-we do every ch- christma-“
gage would shoot the mistletoe above them and sole watched as it fell to the ground, broken into pieces as sole sighed at the sad sight. “stupid ass tradition if ya asked me.”
she’d sigh and fold her arms, tapping her foot almost impatiently. “gage, quit it.” she demanded with an irate expression, “leave it and let’s go.” when gage refused to withdraw the weapon, sole sent him a sharp look. “now.”
and just like that, the person would let out a breath as gage retreated, mumbling some colorful language under his breath as he made his way to sole. they both walked past the silence crowd and once they made their way far enough from the party, she stopped in her tracks and faced him with a smirk. “jealous much?”
“i ain’t jealous. that was just getting’ ridiculous and embarrassin’.” he commented, looking elsewhere with a scowl.
“sure you weren’t.” she teased, earning a glare from the raider, “can’t deny that you wanted to kiss me though and you definetly wouldn’t think that tradition was stupid if you were under the mistletoe with me instead.”
he rolled his eyes and walked past her, wanting to hide the growing blush on his cheeks. “shut the hell up and keep walking, boss. we ain’t ever gonna make it back to nuka world with all yer blabberin’.” he stayed silent, knowing well that whatever sole had just told him was utterly true to the core and there was no absolute way he could deny it.

Fushiguro Megumi Headcanons: Visiting a haunted house with his s/o
For the sake of this headcanon, the Shibuya arc never existed
Megumi kinda forgets Halloween even exists most years. He only remembers its spoopy season because there's always an influx of curses born at the beginning of October in anticipation of the holiday.
In all honesty, every day is Halloween to him with the stuff Shamans have to deal with. So when Yuji proposed the four first years visit a haunted house, Megumi's first thought was "Really? Just wait until Gojo-Sensei gives us a mission. Same thing." 
But oh God, the way his s/o's face lit up at the idea, it kinda made his chest tighten and he just stared because oh God they're beautiful
He agreed.
Gojo decided the kids needed a break and gave them a night off a couple of days before Halloween (because, sadly, Halloween night is the busiest night of the year for Shamans) and the four headed off to town.
The only people who are allowed to dress up at these things are the scare actors, but that didn't stop Nobara from spooping everyone up a tad. Megumi was given fake vampire teeth, much to his disliking, with that weird fake candy blood dabbed on his lips. His S/O was given nothing more than two bloody dots on their neck, resembling bite marks. Nobara was supportive like that.
Megumi couldn't stop staring at his s/o's neck the entire time. He loved everything about them, but their neck was God tier. The candy blood was strawberry and he knew it would taste twice as sweet if he licked it off of their neck-
But PDA isn't really his thing. The others know about their relationship, but they rarely show it around them.
Alas, they have arrived.
It looks surprisingly well put together despite being a pop-up thing. Idk how to describe a haunted house so please, let your imagination run rampant.
Megumi buys two tickets. It's obvious who they're for. Yuji rlly gets offended. It's a mess. Yuji loves all of his friends, but ever since Megumi and his s/o started dating he hasn't been getting enough attention and this displeases him.
Nobara, Yuji, and s/o are chatting happily while waiting in line to get in. Megumi hangs back slightly, scrolling through his phone while they chat away. This is a common occurrence. Those three drag Megumi around to a lot of places he doesn't want to go to. As compensation, he kinda just does whatever he wants. His partner understands.
The haunted house allows two people in at a time so Nobara and Yuji opt to go in ahead of the couple. After yelling at the person directing them not to lose her fucking hammer (she rlly thought weapons were allowed in the haunted house), Nobara marched in with Yuji in tow.
This was the moment Megumi was waiting for, really. Pda around total strangers in the dark was so much better than around his classmates. It's not like they even teased him or anything, it just felt weird.
He slips his phone in his back pocket and grabs his s/o's hand, intertwining their fingers.
But?? They jump??? And their hands are kinda clammy??? 
"Hey, sweetie? Are you okay?"
Megumi is seriously debating turning around and leaving the other classmates behind; is his baby sick??? Is something wrong??? He'll hurt someone-
But they have such a big happy smile on their face. They explain that they're super stoked for their turn to arrive and it's just nerves from the anticipation.
This confuses Megumi. His s/o faces grotesque monsters every day. What makes this special? Are they really scared? What the fu-
Oh hey, it's their turn now.
The first couple of scares were nothing but cheap jumpscares. Megumi was more caught off guard by the fact his s/o was caught so off guard by it and actually screamed. He instinctively went to pull them to safety, but they laughed. They giggled as they grabbed onto his arm. Megumi froze for a split second before turning the brightest shade of red.
Maybe this was why he didn't do PDA
They ventured onward
Sometime later there's this scare actress dressed up like a doll sitting in the middle of a corridor
It's pretty straightforward; Megumi watched two couples walk by while the doll pretended to grab their ankles. By the way, where’s Nobara and Yuji? He knows for a fact if they came this way Nobara would have kicked the shit out of her-
S/o hides behind Megumi while clinging to his hoodie and it's SO CUTE he almost forgets he has to move toward the creepy doll woman.
They move forward.
The doll, naturally, doesn't frighten Megumi at all, but what happens next does
There's a scream, followed by an "Ow! Hey! Let go!". Fingernails are digging into his back and not in a good way.
S/o almost fell over because the doll lady has their ankle in both hands and is holding it above the ground. S/o is obviously pulling as hard as they can to get their leg back. They aren't smiling anymore. Those are tears from fear, not laughter.
Megumi kinda loses it for a minute
"Get the fuck off of them, freak" His very large foot connects with her very tiny jaw. She flies backward.
"Hey! What the fuck bro? I'm trying to tie her shoe!" 
Oh dear, their shoe really is untied
"Run."
"What?"
"R U N"
There is now a woman, who actually is kinda doll-sized, dressed in a frilly blue dress with a matching bonnet chasing the young lovers through the haunted house. It's a riot.
Doll lady has anger issues so this is common. A hefty butcher man just kinda wraps his arm around her middle and carries her off.
But Megumi and his s/o don't know that, so they keep running until they make it out.
S/o rlly did manage to get out without tripping until the vERY last minute, y'know, for plot reasons
Megumi catches them bc he's a strong boy ™
He runs his fingers through their hair and tries to get a good read of their face. "Are you alright babe? They didn't hurt you, right?"
S/o bursts out in... Laughter. They double over laughing, with Megumi's strong arms around them to support them.
"You should have seen the look on that loli bitch's face omgggg Meguminnnn"
Megumi can't help but burst out laughing too. This night has been so surreal for him. This is so out of the ordinary for him, he didn't even want to be here. He hasn't attacked a civilian since middle school. What even is this-
And he did it all for them
He cups his lover's face in both hands and pulls them in. He kisses them roughly. He doesn't give a shit who's watching. The teeth get in the way but neither of them cares. Megumi was right, the blood really is strawberry flavored, and they love it.
There's a wolf whistle. Catcall? What are they even called?
Its fucking Sukuna, guys
Nobara and Yuji were there the whole time, just outside the exit, waiting for them
Yuji is busy slapping each of Sukuna's mouths as they pop up because he's making some very naughty remarks. Nobara is squealing because finally, her ship is sailing. Well, she means, it's been sailed, but still.
Megumi is officially the brightest shade of red you have ever seen. His lover is giggling again.
Fushiguro Megumi will never live down the night he kicked a midget doll in the face and made out with the love of his life in public, and despite protests, he wouldn't have it any other way.

And he said “nope” - Part 2
Deal with the Devil
Hisoka x weak!reader; soulmate AU
Ok so we decided to go with a light and fun story! I suppose it isn’t what’s expected of a Hisoka x reader but with Ari we had so much fun imagining different scenarios where both are forced to work together, it just started to take life on it’s own! I hope it won’t be disapointing for you and that you’ll like this serie as much as we do! @kuuredere​
-Yasu
Previous chapter / Next chapter
TW: none
Writer: Both of us ! (Ari and Yasu)
Word count: 1965
Tumblr media
    This is how your "contract" began with Hisoka, with one simple deal: to continue with your life without being disturbing each other, as if you two never met. You would never work together anyway. You had morals and Hisoka was… Hisoka.
    But strangely, since then your life had seemed to take an ominous decline and you were starting to wonder if the Universe had something to do with it. Too much had happened in too little time: losing your car, having your apartment infested with cockroaches, and finding out that your partner might be having an affair. Well… it couldn't be worse, after all.
    " You are fired. "
Ah. It could, actually.
    You were sitting on a bench somewhere in a park, with a big box full of your things lying at your feet, trying somehow to reach your partner on the phone. After the fifth call, you gave up. They must have been busy ...
    You clapped your hands over your eyes, sighing loudly, twisting in your head everything you could do to find a job that paid as well as your last but there were very few options and the remaining ones didn't appeal to you one bit. You weren't desperate enough to striptease yet, that's for sure, and going back to babysitting was a big no.
    "Maybe they were right in the end," you mumbled in your despair. “I'm not meant to be a Hunter and I'm not made for the big city.” A sad chuckle escaped your lips. “A real little peasant, haha. "
    As if trying to mock you, the sun and the sky were extremely bright that day. Or maybe it was to support you...
    " Well! I got this! I will not be discouraged for so little! "
    You got up on your feet, determined, and then sat down again almost instantly.
    "I have nowhere to sleep."
    You expressed yourself with yet another long sigh. If only you hadn’t met this Hisoka, if only you hadn’t gone to see that damn battle at Heaven Arenas with your friends, if only you had said no, your life surely would have just as chill, like it used to. Seeing in color was fun but not necessary.
    "I don't like pink," you thought as you saw a kid make a big bubble with his chewing gum.
    "My, it looks like my kitten is doing badly ~," said a voice you recognized all too well.
    Slowly turning your head to the side, you could finally confirm your fears: Hisoka was looking at you with a big smile, a hand on his cheek and mocking eyes.
    "Hey, Satan," you answered instinctively.
    He laughs at your words.
    "I’m pretty sure I’m even worse, but thank you nonetheless."
    “Go away. I don’t have time to mess with you. And like, don’t you have a fight today?”
    Hisoka shrugged.
    “The guy isn’t worth my time, that’s all.”
    “So you thought about stalking me?”
    “I thought about watching children play but I found you like you would find a wart,” he said nonchalantly.
    You just started at him, genuinely creeped out.
    “Get out of here, pedo.”
    He laughed again.
    “Make me.”
     “The sexual innuendo of this sentence is way too big so you better stop using it unless if you want to bang me,” you said, unphased. “But there’s a hint: you ugly.”
    “Wow!” Hisoka placed a hand to his heart, a pout on his face. “You didn’t seem quite so aggressive last time. Something bad happened?” His eyes found your box and his smirk came back. “Fired?”
    You said nothing, but the displeased expression gave him confirmation.
    “Your fault.”
    “How’s that? Oh, let me guess,” his finger taping his lips in the most frustrating exagerration of his excessively dramatic self. “You couldn’t stop thinking about me and got distracted from your work, so of course, your boss told you to never come back because of your  uselesness. Tragic love story!” He sighed. “But then again, who could resist me? I feel sympathetic for you. <3″
    Your disgust grew just at the thought of being in love with Hisoka. He annoyed more you at every word he spoke, at every breath he took but you wouldn’t give him the satisfaction of knowing this. You prefered playing his game and use your sarcasm to counter his and perhaps, distract yourself from your harsh reality.
    “Well, if you’re so sympathetic, you could buy me a house-”
    “Nope, <3″
You tried, at least!
    “My apartment have been infested with cockroaches, so honestly, I really need a house. If you know a place, tell me.”
Hisoka eyed you for a second.
     “Are you really unclean to the point of having cockroaches in your whole apartment?”
    “What ? NO!” you yelled.
He just laughed again, shoting his head back. You bite your lower lips in embarassment as you saw the eyes of everyone else in proximity glaring at you. Your cheeks burned in fluster.You’ve been too loud.
    “I have an idea!” you said to Hisoka after chacking your burning face away. “We could swap houses! That way, you could live with your family!”
His laugh died and he looked at you, pleased that you started playing with him.
   “They said they missed you, you know? That you shouldn’t have run off and left them without saying anything,” you continued.
   “I,” started Hisoka through a shit eating grin, “hate you so much and I urge to kill you but it would be no fun with you.”
    “I think one of your brothers at my house is called Steve. Steve really, really misses you.” You smiled. “I feel like you two were very close.”
    You liked insisting on each and every word of your sentence.
    “Impossible. I’m too sexy to be related to Steve.”
    “You’re sure? I thought you were twins. I could barely tell you apart!” Your voice sounded more and more amused with each syllable leaving your mouth. It felt so natural. “Wow.”
    Honeslty, playful bander with Hisoka was fun. A real game, a match one of you had to win; he was never phased by any of your words so you kept sending sly insults back and forth in this oddly lively and convivial disgust you shared for each other.
    Unfortunatly, everything must come to an end, right? You stopped quick in your teasing when you saw a familiar number appearing on your phone. Your smile vanished in less than a second and the atmosphere wasn’t so light anymore. Your partner was calling you, but in all honesty, you didn’t want to answer now. Or more like you didn’t have the heart to. 
    Hisoka raised one eyebrow.
    “Lover?”
    “I guess.. They’ve been cheating for a while, so no, not really anymore,” you said, trying your best to seem nonchalant about it.
    “And you’re okay with that? You don’t seem like the type who’d have an open relationship.” His voice sounded like he took great joy in your suffering.
    “Well, they found their soulmate. I know them,” you gulped. “I know them more than I know myself. It’s been hard on them and they aren’t ready to talk about it but I’m aware of what they’re doing at night. I saw their messages by accident.” You shrugged. “I’m only waiting for when they feel like it’s time.”
You stared at the number until it disappeared.
    “Liar.”
You looked over to Hisoka again, slightly disoriented.
    “You can dump them since you found your own soulmate.The break-up wouldn’t be so hard on them if they knew this.” He chuckled. “You’re just slowing down the inevitable fate of your couple. You don’t want to be alone and that’s all there is to know.”
    You glared at him, now. Your heart was beating loudly against your chest, in pure anger. How could he read through you so easily? You didn’t like that one bit and you were disappointed in yourself for oversharing. He’s your soulmate, yes, but he’s still Hisoka.
“Please. Not now.”
“Sucks to be you, love.”
    An awkward silence fall upon you both, or at least upon you. While you were frantically texting your best friend to ask for a place to stay, only to be met with a lenghty apology, you searched for other ways to find a place to sleep tonight. The motel rooms prices were way too high and you didn’t know how long you’d need to stay, nor how much it’ll cost to have your appartment clean again. You couldn’t face your partner and you were too ashamed to call your family. Your pride would end you but you prefered sleeping in the streets than having them look at you disapprovingly. Your whole world was falling apart and you blamed it all on Hisoka. And yet...
    Hisoka’s eyes didn’t leave your figure. His mind was racing and it seemed like it was the only thing it did since he met you. He didn’t speak when he saw you frown and sigh and type desesperatly on your phone, swipping through your contacts, hesitating over a room price, checking over and over again if anyone could help you. His mind was still racing when he told you:
    “I guess you can come to my place for a while.”
    You were utterly speechless and goggled at him for a few seconds. It isn’t like Hisoka at all to propose help. He had something in mind, you knew as much, but you couldn’t help but feel floored.
    “Who are you and what the heck did you do to my soulmate-?”
    “Awww, you refer to me as your soulmate, that’s adorable.”
    “ANSWER-” Honestly, you didn’t care about the volume of your voice at this point. You were too shocked. 
    Hisoka just laughed it off and looked at you, openly condescending and still smiling. Does he ever stop doing so ?
    “I will have to take on a mission so I won’t be at Heaven Arenas for a while.” He pointed at you. “You can take my room there while I’m gone.”
You were too confused.
    “But why? You gain nothing by doing this!” You frowned and wrapped your hands protectively against your body. “I won’t have sex with you!”
    “Don’t worry, I’d rather die,” he rolled his eyes. “I let you take my room because whatever happens to you if you sleep on a bench in the parc happens to me as well. And even if I’m pretty sure I can manage, I don’t want to wake up in the morning with a hole in my belly. You got it, darling?” 
    “Wait, what do you mean everything that happens to-’
But he didn’t let you finish your sentence: he took your box and walked away without giving you any other explanation.
    “Hisoka, wait!”
    Well, at least you got a rather interesting piece of informations. You didn’t know everything about soulmates but you sure knew that even if you were linked by fate, Hisoka wouldn’t do this without solid motives. Everything about him screamed to you to never trust him but you needed your box and you needed a roof over your head. You wouldn’t let your guard down for now. You probably couldn’t beat him in a fight but he didn’t seem like he’d kill you so that was already a good point.
    You made a mental note to look more deeply into all of this and untangle the mystery of his help and quickly followed your jerk soulmate. 
    “I said wait, asshole!”
    “What, miss me already? Do you want a goodbye kiss?”
    “Don’t say such repulsive things,” you replied, gagging. “I’ll need the room’s key.”
    “Here,” he tosses it to you before adding “just don’t go looking around my stuff too much~”
This was going to be... interesting.

bad attitude
Characters: boxer!Juyeon & You
Setting : your typical YA “bad boy” romance, inspired by his GenZ vid (and I kind of wanted to drop hints of the Ares & Aphrodite dynamic but I’m not sure I succeeded)
Summary: He looked like trouble walking on long legs. The kind of guy your parents would want you to stay away. And yet, not even the blood on his knuckles or his cold words biting like bullets can scare you away. Because Juyeon isn’t as bad as he thinks he is.
Warning: mentions of violence, implied sexual content and some guys not getting the hint to f*ck off
Words: 7k
Tumblr media
You winced. 
You weren't even the one being hit and yet, the thud of punches soared through your whole body.
You'd never liked violence, not even fighting sports like this, and gosh, you regretted letting your best friend drag you with herself. Just because she had a crush on a boxer or MMA fighter or whatever, it didn't mean you had to support all her choices and out-of-character behaviour like paying a visit to a match. But she was determined and you were a good friend, so of course, you accompanied her. You wouldn't have let her go alone to this suspicious place called Dungeon probably filled with sweaty, muscly and aggressive guys. Although in reality, it was different from what you had imagined. A lot more professional and civilized for sure. But it didn't mean you liked it. At all. 
"Minjung-aaaah, how long do we have to stay here? Your guy has already beat someone," you whined because even though it felt as if you were out on a basketball match, still the witnessed violence, the blood splattered on the ground of the ring because of the gloveless fight and aggressive yelling from time to time made you feel uncomfortable in your skin.
"Until the end, silly, there's an after party we are invited to but come on, there's only one match left and I heard it's the most anticipated one," she tugged on your arm even acting cutely to convince you to stay a little more and even though you groaned, you stayed put. Oh the things you did for her, you thought but it was lovely to see her smile so bright.
"And now, the highlight of tonight... Let's applaud the current champion Leeeeee Juyeon and the challenger Kiiiiim Hongseok!" the announcer yelled into his mic and the audience roared. However, you paid more attention to the approaching, freshly-out-of-the-shower guy and kept nudging Minjung in the side, so she would notice him, too. She only did though when he arrived right next to you.
"Oh hey Sunwoo," she smiled at the redhead unconsciously playing with the banner in her hand that she had brought in support of the boy. You found her shy actions cute. 
"Hey girls, I'm glad you could make it," the fighter flashed a boyish smile at Minjung. Your friend had already spent nights telling you all about how much she liked the way his eyes sparkled or the way his lips tilted when he smiled, so even though you had never met the guy before, his appearance didn't shock you at all and in all honesty you thought they would have looked nice together. Also even though they were eyeing each other very obviously they engaged you in their small talk as well, so you didn't feel like a miserable third-wheel. 
"Juyeon is my friend and he is like really good," Sunwoo added when the match was about to start and he pointed at the guy wearing a white tank top and royal blue bandages around his knuckles. His ink black locks fell into his feline eyes and he really did look like a predator the way he circled around his competitor.
It was pretty high tension, everybody held their breath waiting for the first attack but it came so suddenly that you almost missed it. It was like a viper's strike: quick and deadly. The other guy stattered back, blood dripping from his mouth already. But then it got faster and more aggressive but you could tell it was the bloody faced one who started to lose his patience. There were hits and punches and you really didn't understand the pointing system no matter how Sunwoo kept narrating and explaining, but one thing you knew was that the match had come to an end of the match when the coal haired guy knocked out the other. Loud cheering erupted in the warehouse and the winner was awarded before the crowd started to dissolve. It was only then when you noticed how fast your heart hammered due to the adrenalin. You still didn't like it though.
"Imma get the guys but meet you there, girls," Sunwoo grinned at the two of you, and you have never seen Minjung so enamoured. She gushed all about him on your way to the nearby club and even when you got seated in a booth once you got yourself cocktails. She was in the middle of a self pep talk convincing herself to ask the guy out before the night ended when the guys showed up. Sunwoo, his roommate Chanhee whom you have also heard of, someone named Hyunjoon and Juyeon from the ring.
At first, you didn't recognize him. This time he wore blue jeans instead of sweattracks, a black shirt and a leather jacket over his lean biceps. One of his cheeks was puffy under his eyes and he had split lips but other than that, he looked unaffected by the fight before. That deadly glare was missing from his dark eyes as well. He merely looked a bit cold and uninterested. Even when Sunwoo took it upon himself to introduce everyone. He barely glanced in your direction, not even when your best friend found it necessary to tell everyone that you were modelling for a living beside university.
“My father told me to put my pretty face to some use,” you shrugged and you were glad when the guys moved on from the topic after a good laugh. Even though you had grown to love your job, as a model you faced quite a lot of prejudice about being nothing but a shallow beauty, so you didn't really like to talk about it. 
Throughout the evening Juyeon was quiet too but you couldn't help glancing his way a few times. He let others do the talking but the way he made sure to pour less alcohol into Hyunjoon's glass who was tipsy after a can of beer made you smile to yourself behind your cocktail.
At one point Minjung and Sunwoo left to dance and Hyunjoon managed to drag Chanhee along too, so you were left alone with 'the toughest guy of all' as Sunwoo jokingly called Juyeon earlier. He didn't look that scary now though.
"Does it hurt?" you pointed at his face which seemed to surprise him, not expecting you to speak up or at least not by bringing something like that up. 
"I've gotten used to it," he muttered while looking straight into your eyes, a pair of coal irises boring your yours and he just shrugged. 
"So it does," you hummed not really knowing what to do with his nonchalant behaviour. You weren't used to this. Some guys became bashful once they met you, some fanned over your beauty that always made your mother happy or even if they were more collected than that, you could always tell from their eyes that they were awed by your appearance at least a bit. But Juyeon? He didn't seem to care at all.
It was a relief, to be honest to not be put under the spotlight merely due to your pretty features. Sure, you earned good money thanks to your luck for having been born this way, so you shouldn't have complained but with being pretty came the expectations and everyone treated you like a doll and truth to tell, you wanted them to not only look but see you for real as well. Maybe that was why you were certain that the fighter had more to him as well but he wasn't an easy one to crack.
You asked how he knew Sunwoo (they went to the same gym), whether he felt pressured to keep his first place (he didn't care much about ranks, he just hated to lose) or whether he had always wanted to become some sort of athlete (that was merely what he was good at) and he kept giving curt answers. Yet, he didn't seem bothered by your questions, he jugged down his beer slowly in the meantime.
“I'm getting another round,” you proclaimed, getting up with a rum-flavoured smile on your rosy lips and you walked up to the counter to order another cocktail for you and beer for Juyeon. On the dance floor, you caught the vague image of Minjung and her boy, so you smiled and someone just had to be there to misunderstand…
“Like what you see, pretty? Want to join me for a drink?” Some guy at the counter directed his slurred question at you. You politely rejected his offer, telling him that you had company waiting for you but the guy didn't seem to understand your intent. Quite the opposite. “Oh come on! Are you trying to play hard to get? Don't be like this. Let oppa pour you a drink,” he cooed and unexpectedly grabbed you on the waist pulling you closer.
“Let go of me!” you whisper-yelled at the guy since you didn't want to earn pitying glances or draw too much attention. But it seemed like he didn't understand from simple, nice words.
So you were just about to threaten him by telling him he could get kicked out of the place for such harassment when someone grabbed the guy's wrist, prying it off you. You looked up surprised to see those wicked dark eyes back while rubbing your side where that douchebag had held you.
"She told you to leave her alone. Do you have problems with your hearing?" Juyeon asked through gritted teeth and his whole aura radiated power. You were surprised that the drunken guy dared to go against him but maybe it was due to liquid courage.
"What? Are you her boyfriend or what? Fuck off, dude." 
"It doesn't matter who I am, I can break your wrist nevertheless," Juyeon warned the guy but when he didn't listen, he indeed twisted his arm behind his back until he yelled for mercy.
"That's enough. Let's go," you put a hand over Juyeon's shoulder, feeling the tense muscles underneath, trying to reason that he shouldn't get into trouble. He shot you a glance, a displeased one but didn't object. He let go of the guy, who stumbled backwards.
Drinks long forgotten you let Juyeon lead you away from the crowd, a little further to the corridors and you felt strangely safe with the guy's big hand resting barely over the small of your back.
"Thank you," you whispered when you were away enough for it to be heard over the music. The guy didn't seem to expect such gratitude but he acknowledged it with a firm nod, hair falling ahead into his pitch dark eyes. 
"Do you want to go home?" he asked hoarsely and you gave it a thought. You didn't want to leave Minjung alone but she seemed to have good company and while you could have pretended being alright, not shaken up at all but one scene like this brought back many memories of other accidents and you just lost your party mood.
"Uhm yeah," you murmured and let Minjung know about your decision. Sunwoo also promised that he would make sure she got home safe and sound, then you got ready to leave. When you told Juyeon that you didn't mean to ruin his night and he shouldn't worry about you, he just shrugged.
“I needed an excuse to leave anyway. Let me walk you home.”
“You don't have to. I'm not a damsel in distress,” you protested immediately because even though you appreciated his concern, you also hated nothing more than being treated as weak. Even your steps halted once the fresh night air hit you in the face outside of the club.
“And I'm not a caveman,” Juyeon retorted and gosh, if it was his way of saying that he could act like a gentleman, it was pretty funny coming from him.
“Tells someone who beats people up for a living. Pretty Neandertal if you ask me,” you raised a brow challengingly but playful and it took a moment or two, him staring at you in disbelief, blinking before his lips trembled and his surprised chuckle morphed into a smile. The first genuine smile you had seen on him and wow, it was beautiful. The way his lips curled upwards and his eyes got narrow. Unlike his overall cold behaviour, it felt warm, it made your chest feel bubbly and hot.
“Fair point,” he noted but you didn't say a word when he walked next to you on your way to the bus stop. 
"Does it happen a lot?" he asked quietly at one point almost as if he wasn't sure he had the right to ask but you understood his reason. You weren't even fazed by that douche, that must have been suspicious.
"I have gotten used to it." 
"So it does," Juyeon mimicked (mocked?) your earlier words about his pained cheek.
“I work in an industry where things like this happen often. Don't worry. I'm a big girl, I can take care of guys who think with their dicks,” you claimed and the guy pressed his mouth into a firm line. He seemed a bit impressed by your attitude.
The rest of the walk and the bus ride was quiet. You didn't mind though, it wasn't the uncomfortable or awkward kind. It was an understanding one. Pretty nice.
“So that's me,” you said, pointing at the apartment block in which you shared your flat with Minjung. Juyeon looked around, alert eyes taking in the surroundings before acknowledging your answer with a nod. He really wasn't talkative and standing there, in front of the gates in all black, he reminded you of stray cats, careful and reckless all the same.
“I will see you around, I guess. Don't forget to put ice on that,” you pointed at his puffy cheek and he grinned at that. Hands deep in his pockets, leather jacket loose on his shoulder, he turned around once you set your foot inside the building.
But he didn't leave your thoughts that night.
Next day, you would have expected Minjung to be sleepy and whiny like she usually was in the mornings but she was already up by the time you went out to the kitchen. It should have been suspicious but you only realized the reason behind her giddiness a bit later.
“Soooo you and Juyeon...” she singsonged while putting coffee in front of you and you couldn't hide an amused smile in disbelief. Of course, she had to bring that up.
“There's no me and Juyeon.”
“Little birds told me you talked all night and he even walked you home,” your best friend continued making it sound like a cheap American movie because of her intonations.
“Well, I hope your birdies told you that nothing happened,” you snickered playfully because honestly, you didn't want her to get the wrong idea. It was unlikely that anything would come out of it and you weren't sure you wanted that anyway. Sure, Juyeon had this aura that attracted people and you had felt your blood rush when you had locked eyes. Not to mention that yesterday was probably just him being nice without any hidden intent. Actually you would have hated it a bit if he had expected anything in exchange for his unasked courtesy. So in your books, him walking you home and then leaving just like that was actually a good point.
It was Minjung who seemed disappointed.
“A shame. He's hot,” she pouted at which you raised a brow. She laughed it off. “What? Just because I like Sunwoo, I can admit that his friend is hot.”
“You know I don't care about looks and I'm not having casual sex with a friend of your future boyfriend,” you said firmly, tone playful by the end, wanting to get back on her because of her teasing. But it seemed like she took your words seriously as she corrected you almost nonchalantly. 
“Present tense.”
“What?” you blinked, hopeful.
“I mean I guess it's official. We are having a date on Sunday,” Minjung admitted with a bright smile, practically beaming and now you could understand where her sudden awakeness came from.
“Yah, and you waited this long to tell me!” You hit her on the back, demanding details while both of you minched on slightly overburnt toasts.
With Minjung and Sunwoo dating, their circles of friends hung out regularly and that meant that you met Juyeon quite often. The more you got to know him, the more you realized he was the actions over words type of guy and he never did anything halfassly. He was very competitive, you jokingly called him Neanderthal for that too but he didn't seem to mind. He merely got back at you, calling you princess whenever you complained about something and you wouldn't have admitted it out loud but even that kind of nickname sounded pleasing as it rolled off his tongue.
But the truth was, you were really different, it was obvious from the very beginning. You didn't need a very tipsy Hyunjoon to tell you that Juyeon used to be wary of you, thinking you were a brainless chick because 'who else would go for modelling'. It stinged despite knowing that he had changed his mind since.
“He has been a changed man since you talked,” Hyunjoon giggled, obviously exaggerating but you just nodded along, telling him it was time to go home.
To be honest, you weren't different either. Before meeting Sunwoo and his friends, you didn't have a too good of an opinion on those who earned money from fighting. You thought that those who did must have been aggressive muscle-heads outside of the ring as well.
But your differences weren't just about the stereotypes. From what you had gathered, Juyeon prefered action movies while you liked comedies. He always wore dark clothes while you had barely anything but light and pastel colours. He drank bitter beer while you opted for sweet cocktails. He was a night owl, you were a morning bird. His go-to coffee was black, yours was latte with whipped cream. He prefered silence, you on the other hand liked talks about nothing and everything. And even though you didn't know him too well, you used these differences to convince yourself that it wouldn't work out anyway so why bother trying. At least, according to Minjung you used these as excuses for not making a move.
It was nothing but a crush, it would go away, you told yourself but oh, you were just a butterfly drawn to the flame recklessly close.
After one of his matches, Juyeon was taking longer than usual, and the guys were pumped up over Sunwoo's glorious win, so they weren't too patient. You sent them off, promising to go after them with Juyeon because you didn't mind staying behind even if it meant missing out on the first few rounds of alcohol. But since Juyeon gave no sign of himself, you made your way backstage with the pass you got from Hyunjoon to check on him. Knocking on the changing room door, you could hear him grumbling something, probably thinking his visitor was one of the guys.
“It's me,” you mumbled as you opened the door but the sight that welcomed you made you freeze on the spot. The floor was scattered with green glass pieces, remnants of a soju bottle and there was blood too, carmine dots colouring the white tiles.
“What the he- What happened?” you looked around, shocked after you closed the door behind you. The place looked like there was a scrummage over there.
“Someone's a sore loser,” Juyeon muttered, anger dripping from his words while he held his hand under running water over the sink in the corner. The way he gritted his teeth you could easily tell that he was in pain. His blood coming from his lower arm and back of the hand painted the water pink, so you could understand why. You decided to pay more attention to that, rather than the asshole who attacked him off-ring.
“Do you have a first aid kit? I'll help,” you offered because bandaging his hurt hand with the other wouldn't have been easy, not even for someone who seemed experienced in taking care of his own injuries.
Juyeon looked suspicious though, at least at first, not getting how you would know anything about treating wounds.
“I have a licence, duh,” you rolled your eyes. You had been trained for emergency situations on the road, so a few cuts should have been okay. So when Juyeon sighed, you took it as a sign of agreement, so you gestured him to sit on the bench and after you got the first aid kit ready, you sat next to him.
As you took his hand in yours, you felt his rough knuckles and fingertips against your soft skin and neither that, nor his breathing against your ear didn't help you to focus. But somehow you still managed to do it, smoothing bandages over the wounds gently after you cleaned them and covered them with antiseptic. Luckily they weren't too deep but since it wasn't a simple papercut you were sure they would heal slower and wouldn't go away without a trace. 
“Done,” you announced with a smile on your face and pride in your voice, soothing a thumb over Juyeon’s wrist mindlessly as if you were trying to ease his tensed nerves. “It's going to leave an ugly scar though.”
“I'm not pretty anyway, so it doesn't matter,” the boxer muttered, probably used to having scars all over and you had this urge to tell him that even with purple and green bruises blooming all over him like flowers you would have found him beautiful.
Only when you looked up, searching for his night-like eyes on you,  you noticed how close you really were. Sitting side-by-side, knees barely but touching, you could see his facial expressions better than ever before and it would have been so easy to lean in and just… You weren't sure what but a moment was enough for you to feel overwhelmed under his intense stare.
It really wasn't that he was hot with his wide shoulders, strong arms, hands so big or with those feline eyes holding black holes and lips thin but attractive. What drew you in was the burning passion in his eyes, the way he looked when he was focused and that he seemingly didn't give a fuck about what others thought of him.
And now he was looking at your with unadulterated want and curiosity in his wild eyes and it shook you to the core.
“Isn't this the part you should tell me that I should see the other guy?” you whispered, playfully, not being able to get out what you really wanted to say about him being pretty no matter what he thought.
“You wouldn't like what you saw,” Juyeon said dryly with a twitch in the corner of his mouth. So the other guy did look worse, you concluded, and his answer reminded you how well he knew you already. And it was the answer to all your questions. So you just nodded, not asking more, not wanting to know what he had done. You gulped and turned your head away, ready to leave. Only if your legs didn't feel so heavy.
“The others must be getting worried, we shou-”
“I bet they aren't,” Juyeon interrupted you but let you pull your hand away, to fumble with the first aid kit, putting it away. “They know you are with me.”
He was right, of course they knew. They also knew that you were safe with him. So what were you afraid of? Not rejection, for sure. You knew both of you felt this kind of tingling tension between you. Then what? You weren't sure but you didn't want to be a coward anymore.
“Walk me home?” you asked, quiet and casual, no pressure but Juyeon just hummed as if it was natural. It was kind of déjavu except not really because when you reached your apartment complex, you didn't bid goodbye reminding him to change the bandage in the morning.
“Want to come upstairs? I have beer to make up for the loss of alcohol from tonight's missed party,” you offered instead and the suggestion was heavy in the air. Juyeon knew just as well that Minjung was out with the others and wouldn't make it back soon.
“Sure,” he muttered and followed you to the elevator. The tension was almost tangible by the time the flat's door closed shut behind you.
“So, this is us. Make yourself at home, I’ll bring the be-” you chattered after kicking off your high heels but on your way to the kitchen you were stopped by calloused fingers on your wrist. His touch was sudden but not rough at all and you felt electricity run through your veins because of this simple action.
“Where is this going? What do you really want, princess?” Juyeon asked, quietly, but each of his words echoed loudly in your head. And there it was, that nickname again, except this time it wasn't playful.
You turned back to him, locking eyes, finding that dark pair on you immediately. You could have told him many things, that you just wished to talk, that maybe you could watch a movie, but then in that very moment there was just one thing you really wanted.
“You,” you blurted out, not caring about the consequences, heart beating so loud you were afraid he would hear. But maybe he knew anyway with the way he kept holding on your arm, long fingers padding over your vein. At your answer, there was a flash of… something - maybe the crumble of his resolution or a spark of desire - in his eyes before he yanked you closer to him and crashed his mouth to yours.
His lips were a bit chapped and they moved feverishly against yours. He wasn't too gentle, didn't treat you like you were made of porcelain but you didn't even need or want that. It was just perfect. You ran your tongue along the wound on his lower lip and felt a rush of power and adrenaline at the way he grunted. Maybe you started to understand why he liked those things so much.
And you fell into that hole you swore you wouldn't: that night you mapped out his body, a history of past scars, lips following the marks while Juyeon left his own trace on you murmuring sweet names into your skin and kissed you like he could never get enough of you.
But of course, he could and you made it even easier as you pretended to be asleep when he walked out.
Next morning, your best friend came out of her room while you were in the middle of oversweetening your coffee to the point you would get sick of it. She seemed awfully cheerful but you just couldn't pretend that you felt the same after those haunting thoughts that didn't let you sleep almost all night. You could still smell the antiseptic mixed with sandalwood scent on your sheets.
“So you and Juyeon didn't join us yesterday,” Minjung singsonged but her knowing smile fell as soon as she saw your expression. “Oh sweetie, what happened?”
“Nothing new. I was just stupid,” you sighed but it didn't take long for the lavina inside you to burst out. “It's not like either of us promised anything. And the sex was so good, it's just… he left without saying anything or leaving a note. Gosh, I should have known better.” 
You had been emotionally involved from the very beginning and you weren't sure you could look him in the eye at the next friends gathering, so you were thinking of bailing out but in the end, with the encouragement of Minjung, you decided you weren't just some chick who would cry because of boys. So you went out accepting the drinks Chanhee generously brought all of you. You tried to avoid eye contact with Juyeon though, dancing with strangers but when you did catch his eyes on you, it made your insides boil.
“It's not polite to stare,” you told him when you got back to your table and he raised a brow at that, the smallest of smiles hiding in the corner of his mouth.
“What did you expect from a Neanderthal?”
At his joke, a chuckle threatened to leave your throat, lungs suddenly feeling light. You could do this, you thought, relaxed. So you talked: you asked about his wound, his next match, told him about your upcoming photoshoot and that one class in college that stressed you out. It was nice, so nice you felt your head spinning in his closeness and by the end of the night you found yourself pinned to the wall of a hidden corridor, lips bitten red by his eager kisses.
The thing was that it didn't happen only once. It seemed like you two were addicted to each other, hooked on the other's taste. You knew you should have stopped before getting hurt, before getting your heart broken, yet you couldn't because having him one way was still better than not having him at all.
Minjung got worried over time, asking whether you knew what you were doing and you were pretty sure Sunwoo knew about the situation, too. Otherwise his 'keeping you company while Minjung gets dressed' topic would have been utterly out of blue at the kitchen counter in your apartment.
“Juyeon… he isn't as confident as he seems. And he is pretty bad at talking about feelings stuff,” he blurted out while you were trying not to cry while cutting onions. The knife stopped in your hand, the prickling behind your eyes didn't.
“Uhm, sure.”
“Just in case you were wondering,” he shrugged and luckily dropped the topic soon, so you could go back to cooking. However, Sunwoo's wordless advice stuck with you, nudging you, knowing that you had to be the one who brings emotions. You thought that with time you would be more ready to do that but it was far from true.
It was the first time you went to the Dungeon alone. Minjung came down with something, so she was pretty much bedridden and no matter how much you insisted on staying home with her, making soup or something, she convinced you to cheer the boys on at their matches. So you were there, in the audience, alone, feeling a bit awkward and the same adrenaline mixed with awe and fear while you were watching Juyeon fight a guy taller and broader than him. He might have been the champion and you knew he was good but still, you got worried from time to time. Your heart still beat overtime when his hand was raised above his head.
You clapped proudly but this time you weren't planning on joining the afterparty, you only wanted to say hi to the guys and then leave to get some extra medicine for your best friend. However, before you could have left the warehouse, someone whom you would have never thought to see there came to your vision halfway to the exit.
“Wow, fancy seeing you here! I didn't know you like this kind of stuff,” the lanky figured guy grinned down at you and you gulped, trying to be polite about it. He was a photographer you once worked with and he was creepy as hell back then too, touching inappropriately and texting you until you blocked him not getting the sign to just stop.
“I came with friends,” you told him a half-lie and tried to pass him by with an apologizing smile but before you could have moved away from him, he grabbed your wrist, mouth pulled into a supposedly-charming smirk.
“What about getting a drink?”
“Let me go,” you attempted to pull your hand away but his grip only got firmer. Rough enough to make you wince.
“Come on, don't be like this. Or do you think you are too good for me just because you are pretty?” he spat and that was when you tossed him in the chest with your free hand even though you believed violence was never the answer. Using his loosened grip to your advantage and yanking your arm away, rubbing the bruise, you turned on your heels and started walking out in faster speed, taking out your phone just in case you had to call someone. But you weren't quick enough because the photographer guy caught up to you, calling you out on running away, calling you names you hated.
“Take your filthy hands off her,” a familiar voice snapped and you felt the photographer yanked away from you while yelling at the intruder:
“Who the fuck you think you are?”
“Someone to beat you to pulp if you keep treating her like a freaking doll,” Juyeon hissed at him, pushing him roughly to the wall of the corridor. Recognizing him the guy suddenly seemed to understand what no meant but the fear in his eyes didn't satisfy the boxer. It felt like déjavu: him coming to your rescue, his threat, the wickedness in his feline eyes, your urge to stop him before things would have gotten out of hand. “I will break your fingers if you touch her again.”
“Juyeon, stop. He isn't worth it,” you tried to pull him away by the arm but he shrugged your hand off, flashing you a glance that could have been only described as dangerous. You stumbled backwards momentarily frightened and seeing that, Juyeon's eyes immediately softened, hand loosening around the photographer's collar. He looked apologetic as he held his hand out for you with his palm up and for a moment, air got stuck in your lungs. You took his hand without thinking and let him lead you out of the place. 
You asked no questions, made no protests, just enjoyed his warm palm against yours. It was new, it was butterflies in your stomach-worthy. 
“My place is closer,” he said seemingly out of nowhere as if it was that simple but it wasn’t anything but that. It had been months since you knew him, since you started this something but you had never been at his place before.
“Okay,” you mumbled anyway.
He was right, he lived much closer than you, within walking distance and even though his place was smaller and quite messier than yours, you liked how cozy it was. He told you that his roommates would be back only later and brought you water to drink but you only tapped your fingers over the glass. 
To be honest, you didn't know where the two of you stood, and how to approach the new situation. You never talked about it and it was light and casual, playful while slowly getting to know each other out in the open but on the other hand, behind closed doors it was way more intimate than being simple friends. And things were even more fragile now having the same friends because what if you brought up dating and then he felt uncomfortable around you? Losing him and making it harder for your best friend was both something you feared.
"You're thinking too hard," Juyeon commented and you gulped.
You weren't surprised he noticed. You weren't exactly subtle but then again how he couldn't notice you slowly falling for him then? The way your eyes lingered? The way your touches were loving and gentle? The way you just couldn't get enough.
“Juyeon… What are we exactly?” you blurted out the question from the top of your mind and he sighed as if he knew what was coming but now that this question was out, you had nothing more to lose, no more of your pride.
“Good girls like you falling for bad boys like me only happen in cheesy books and movies. We both know it wouldn't work out," Juyeon told you, resigned and so sure of himself that it made your throat close up. He didn't even try to play the oblivious, he was so straightforward that it almost heart, ripping your heart out of your chest. But it wasn't an answer, it was a 'what you were not'.
“What the hell are you talking about? You are not a bad guy,” you objected right away because despite his borderline illegal job he was a good guy, loyal to his friends. But it seemed like his definition of bad was different.
“Then why did you flinch before? Do you think I could ever hit you, hurt you physically?” he asked and he was the one who looked hurt. You frantically shook your head trying to tell him that you were taken aback by the sheer anger that enveloped him in that moment but you weren't afraid of him. But Juyeon seemed unable to listen. “You know what? Doesn't matter because I don't fit into your perfect life anyway. Why would a pretty princess want an uneducated Neanderthal like me?”
You hissed, not liking the way he used your nicknames in such context and it made you desperate.
“Because I like you!”
Your voice echoed from the empty voice, it rang into your ears and there were the two of you, standing face to face, silent for a long minute.
"I don't think you like me. You like what I stand for: excitement, adrenalin, a bit of rule breaking. You will end up with a nice guy, princess, like you should," Juyeon sighed and him telling you what you should have done made you so mad. 
"Don't try to tell me what I feel!" You raised your voice, something you rarely even did and the fighter looked shocked through, eyes wide, running a hand through his inky strands.
“I don't want to hurt you and hurting people is the only thing I'm good at,” he told you and if the conversation wasn't so hurtful, you would have laughed at such a ridiculous claim.
“Bullshit. You care about your friends, you pay attention, you work hard, you are passionate and now, now you are telling me to find a nicer guy. Instead of breaking my heart to pieces by saying you don't think of me that way, that it was just sex for you, you say none of those things. Why?” you raised a brow at him, provocative, hanging on those last threads of hope and the boy stared back at you as if he was in the ring, ready to fight but unready at the same time. He was obviously torn and frustrated, knuckles turning white.
“Because it wouldn't be true,” he said almost as if he was giving up, letting the last of his walls fall and you needed a moment, heart hammering against your ribcage so loudly, to process this and what it meant. And when you finally understood, a chuckle rolled off your tongue in disbelief. You couldn’t believe that you were not just a coward but blind to see that what you two had wasn’t just being friends with something extra to him either.
You had never seen Juyeon so confused than in that moment, when in that heated moment of the fight you started laughing out loud, smile beaming and directed at him from the relief you felt.
“Good,” you hummed, acknowledging his answer. “Then stop acting so selfless. It doesn’t look good on you and anyway, Neanderthals used to fight for women, not let them go,” you tsked playfully and the guy couldn’t help a snort-like laughter either.
“You’re unbelievable,” he huffed out quite impressed and you couldn’t stop smiling. Not even when he added: “Please tell me you don’t wanna do cheesy shit Sunwoo and your friend do.”
“You mean the couple accessories and celebrating their 100th days together?” you raised a brow and just by the fact that it was his biggest worry now, you knew that you won. You pursued your lips, jokingly pondering on the possibilities. “Gosh, no… But I wouldn’t say no to cuddles tonight.”
“Oh so you wouldn’t say no...” Juyeon cracked a smile, dark cat-like eyes sparkling mischievously while a brow shot up to the middle of his forehead and hummed, excitement building up in your veins as he cornered you to the furniture behind you. “What else you wouldn’t say no to, princess?” he tilted his head and instead of giving him an answer verbally, you grabbed the collar of his tee and pulled him down for a searing kiss.
And cheesy or not, at his next match, you showed up with a banner, too. Get them, Neanderthal!

Impressed
Warnings: fighting? fluff
Draco x snape’s daughter reader
tags: @pinkandblueblurbs
word count: 1771
“Never lie to someone for the sake of their ego. If they don’t impress you, you should tell them.” The words Severus Snape had told his daughter many years ago rang through her head as she passed the immature boys in the courtyard. Like her father, Y/N Snape held her head high and was displeased by the childish jokes many of her classmates divulged in.
Walking into DADA, nodding at Professor Snape once she had entered. Y/N took her seat at the back of the room, next to where Malfoy sat, when he showed up that is. Y/N knew about Draco’s mission and her father’s part in it and although she didn’t agree with it at first, her father promised he was with the light, no matter how dark it seemed. She chose to trust him; he’d never let her down so she hoped he wouldn’t start now.
The seat from beside her shifted as Malfoy sat down. “Y/N,” He greeted causing her to nod in acknowledgement. “How are you?”
“Clearly better than you are,” She responded turning to face the pale boy as her father droned on in the background, she needn’t worry about missing work as she was up to date for the next month of class. “How’s it going?” She asked, ‘it’ being his devastating mission.
He just shook his head and turned to face the front of the class, a flash of dread passing through his features. Y/N sighed quietly as she took notes and once the class ended stayed back to talk to her father.
“Are you sure you’re okay, Draco looks on the brink of a breakdown … not that I care for him, but others are starting to notice.” She said quietly to Severus in case anyone was listening to conversations they shouldn’t be as Potter was known for doing.
“It’s being handled, I don’t want you getting involved.” He replied, placing a hand on her shoulder and rubbing gently.
“I need to go, I’ve got Potions.” She mumbled before leaving, feeling increasingly more anxious about the situation her father and Draco were in.
Y/N walked into Potions five minutes late, rushing to sit next to Malfoy as the pair worked well together.
“Ahh Y/N, I was beginning to worry.” Professor Slughorn chirped causing the class to face her.
“Sorry Professor, I got caught up it won’t happen again.” She mumbled, embarrassed as Draco looked at her concerned.
Slughorn gave the class a task to do in pairs causing the two to face each other before Draco stood to get the ingredients while Y/N got the other supplies. As the pair attempted to make the potion Draco set out on a mission to cheer Y/N up, he didn’t care about most people but couldn’t help caring for her.
“You don’t impress me, you know,” Y/N chuckled as Malfoy tried to balance three glass vials in his palm before they fell and shattered causing the pair to gasp as Slughorn walked over quickly.
“Merlin’s beard what were you attempting?” He asked confused at how a simple potion could’ve ended in three broken vials.
“Sorry professor, it slipped, I’ll clear it.” Y/N muttered as Horace shook his head and walked away, leaving her too it. Malfoy chuckled quietly causing her to send him a death glare which resulted in him holding his arms up in defence.
As the lesson finished Draco, who usually left as soon as he could, stayed back to walk with Y/N causing her to look at him in confusion but instead of providing him with an answer he smiled and walked close to her side.
Walking into the courtyard, the pair groaned at the sight of the beloved ‘golden trio’ also known as the chosen one and his accomplices. The three had given Y/N stick for being Snape’s daughter since third year and it was a well-known fact that Malfoy didn’t get along with them. As much as they tried to avoid the group, they ended up face to face with Harry Potter.
“What do you want, Potter?” Malfoy spat, his hand close to Y/N’s, almost in a comforting manner.
“What’s your dad up to?” Harry glared at Y/N causing her eyes to widen, it wasn’t usual for Harry to be this confrontational with her. She felt Malfoy tense up next to her as she regained her composure, her eyes glaring as she found her temper rising.
“First of all, don’t you dare approach me like that. I don’t care if you’re the ‘chosen one’, to me you’re nothing but a brat who thinks the whole world will bow at his feet. I hate to break it to you, but I won’t. Second of all, nothing that concerns you. Keep mine and my father’s names out of your bloody mouth.” She hissed before holding Malfoy’s forearm gently, aware of what lied under his sleeve, and pulled them away and into the great hall to sit with the rest of the Slytherin’s for dinner.
“That was … impressive,” Malfoy laughed as they sat at the table, far away enough from everyone that they could have their own private conversation.
“He just manages to wind me up in a way no one else does, always on a vendetta against you, me and dad.” She frowns, to which Draco strokes the back of her hand causing goosebumps to rise as her cheeks flushed.
The next day fifth years were allowed to go to Hogsmead but Y/N chose to stay back, there was nothing she wanted to do more than sit with a warm butterbeer and a book, as much as Pansy begged her to go. Around mid-day her father burst into the common room, luckily Y/N was the only person there.
“Thank Merlin you’re here, are you alone?” He asked and she looked up at her father startled. “Are you alone?!” He barked.
“Yes, yes. Everyone else is at Hogsmead why?” She asked, staring at him with wide eyes.
“Draco tried to complete the mission, but some gormless little girl messed with it and now she’s with Madame Pomfrey.” He sighed before stroking his daughter’s hair. “I need to go clean up this mess but keep your head down.” Severus said before leaving Y/N alone with her worries.
As the common room filled with more Slytherins, no one spoke of the incident with Katie Bell, Pansy only told her the basics when she’d asked. She subtly searched the common room but the Slytherin she had hoped to see was nowhere to be seen
She walked into the great hall with Pansy for dinner, keeping an eye out for Draco. Listening to Pansy rant about boys was usually entertaining but today it was borderline irritating due to the worry that sat in her chest.
Her head lifted when Potter stood to talk to Katie Bell making her role her eyes, of course he wanted to be involved. Her attention was drawn away from the scene when her favourite Slytherin entered, she bit her lip at how he tensed seeing the pair talking at the front of the hall. As soon as he stormed out of the room, she got up to follow him, leaving the table without a goodbye. She cursed under her breath as Harry overtook her, chasing Malfoy out of the hall.
Y/N walked as fast as she could, trying to imagine where the two could’ve gone before she heard aggressive voices coming from the bathroom a long walk from where she was stood. Her walk turned into a run when shouts turned into spells, her blood running cold as she heard ‘sectumsempra’ being cast, a spell taught to her by her father. She knew who had cursed it, Malfoy wasn’t stupid enough to use a spell like that.
Turning into the bathroom, she gasped at Malfoys bloodied body on the floor. Running to sit next to him she turned to glare at Harry.
“You absolute fool, who do you think you are sending curses like that?” she yelled before yelling for her dad who came soon after.
Staying by Malfoy’s side, she stared at the back of Harry’s head as he ran out the room, calling him a coward under her breath. She walked to the infirmary with her father, avoiding his stare. She knew he didn’t understand why she cared so much, they’d known the Malfoy’s for years and she’d never shown Draco as being a friend, he was an acquaintance at best. Once Draco was settled in the room, still unconscious, her father motioned towards the door.
Meeting outside he looked at her puzzled.
“I know you told me not to get involved but I could see how much he was struggling, and I-I saw him come in and then Harry go out and no one deserves to feel like this and-” She was cut off by Severus holding her close for a long minute before letting go and looking into his daughters eyes.
“You … care for the boy?” He asked, searching her eyes for a reaction.
She nodded, looking away. “I think I have for a while, maybe since we met …”
“After all this time?” He stared.
“Always.” Y/N flushed, looking into the infirmary where Draco was waking up.
Snape nodded, clearly thinking before pulling her close again.
“Just stay safe and don’t get involved with this please, I am begging you.” He pleaded and let out a relieved sigh when she nodded.
As Severus left to tend to the cursed necklace, Y/N went to tend to Draco.
“Hey,” she smiled sadly at him, to which he smiled and gestured to the chair next to his bed in return. She sat down and he reached the play with her fingers causing her to bite her lip to suppress a smile.
“My first battle, have I impressed you yet?” He smirked, wincing slightly in pain causing her to shake her head while chuckling.
“You idiot, you’re the only one who’s ever impressed me … I just never told you, Merlin knows we don’t need your ego getting any bigger.” She laughed causing him to pretend to be offended before laughing with her.
“He mentioned you … that’s what made me so angry, I shouldn’t have fired a spell at him any way and I wasn’t going to, but he started saying how we were in on it together, I don’t want you to get dragged town with me.” He muttered. Y/N reached out caressing his jaw, careful to avoid his bruises.
“I can look after myself Draco.” She whispered, looking down.
“We can look after each other.” He smiled.

Elena looks around. It’s dark and the sky has a black color without any stars. She thinks about his boyfriend. “There is no chance that he died! I know him for twelve years and he is strong enough. I will see him again. I’m sure about that. She hears nothing but the silence. Never before has she heard absolutely nothing. And suddenly she realizes that she is alone. There are no creatures on this planet. Everything is destroyed. A teardrop rolls over her pale face. And she takes the first step on this unknown planet.
Each step she takes, she could feel her heart pound, the beats getting faster. “It’s too dark. I better be careful with my steps.” Elena muttered. The silence is overbearing as her ears start to hear rings. Feelings of paranoia and anxiety start to creep up. Alone in this dark, unknown planet, Elena stopped walking and looks up to the black skies that seemed like the abyss. “I’m so alone… Where are you? Please! Answer me!” Elena screamed into the nothingness. Tired and trembling, she falls onto her knees as she tries to catch her breath. The adrenaline is starting to wear off. Her eyes feel heavy, words try to come out of her mouth but instead they were trapped. Slowly she lays down, not minding this unknown grassy-like ground. “Please be alive. I don’t want to be alone.”
Sleep finally catches up to her. It’s been a while since she was able to sleep longer. However, nightmares are always there to haunt her.
“Anthony! Where are you?” Elena yelled. She kept searching in the darkness until she heard raspy and labored breathings. Pointing the flashlight into the direction where the sound is heard, Elena is shocked to see him alive… barely. “Oh no! You’re going to be okay. Look at me. Look at me!” She tended quickly to his side.
“I… I’m…- “
“Don’t try to speak! You’re going to make it. Just don’t speak!” Elena pleaded as she patches up his wounds. They were deep and he has lost a lot of blood. His body is starting to take the appearance of pale moonlight, and his touch is starting to get cold like virgin snow.
“I’m sorry…” Anthony uttered weakly as he feels his consciousness fading. With his remaining strength he grabs her hand and holds tightly as he continually gasps for air, trembling. “I feel so cold… Elena, where are you? I’m so alone… don’t leave me please!”
“I’m here! I’m here! Just SHUT UP! Stay with me! You’re going to make it!” Elena pleaded again, screaming at his face. “Anthony! Don’t you dare die on me! HEY!!!! STAY WITH ME!!”
“…” Anthony breathed his last.
“GAH!!” Elena jerked up, brought back to reality. Feeling her heart pound fast and drenched in cold sweat, she immediately stands up and brings out her radio. “Anthony. Anthony! Where are you?” she urgently demanded. Time is of the essence as she prays that her nightmare is just a joke. Static buzzes are the only replies she heard.
She kept looking despite the overwhelming darkness, with flashlight in left hand. The static noise kept raging on, but she ignored it and focused on finding Anthony. The person she wanted to be with the most, especially in this place of unknown. Elena lost track of time as she kept on finding him. The static noises were fading, replaced with clearer transmissions. “Anthony. Can you hear me?”
But then a flashlight was pointed at her face, distracting her. Putting her arms in front of her face to cover the light she hears a familiar voice. “Elena?” the man confusingly asked as he lowers his rifle.
“Jamie? You’re alive! Thank God you’re alive!” Elena runs and hugs him tightly. “Anthony? Where is Anthony?”
“The medics are currently treating him. Thankfully his wounds are not severe but…” Jamie stopped midway.
“But?”
“My brother is unconscious. I don’t know when he will wake up.” Jamie continued as he sighs and wipes a tear. Taking her to the medevac, Elena is surprised to see the unconscious Anthony, all patched-up with IV drips injected.
“You lied to me!” Elena slapped the hell out of the lying younger brother. She could feel her hand heating up from the impact.
“I don’t know how to tell you.” Jamie rubs his cheek. “You would do the same if you were in my shoes, wouldn’t you?”
“Anthony…” Elena falls on to her knees and begins to sob.
“…” Jamie bites his lip and clenches his fists.
It took 2 hours before they arrived at the headquarters, C-137 Mothership. Anthony is carefully placed on a bed in the ICU, monitored by the medics. Jamie and Elena were allowed to come in for they were related to him. The medics told them that despite being in comatose state, Anthony can hear and respond to their voices.
“It would be best if we keep talking to him. He may be comatose, but he can hear you. Chances of him waking up are low but we assure you that we will do everything to wake him up. See that monitor over there. Don’t let his heart and pulse rate go low.” The medic calmly explained and told them before leaving to make a report. Jamie follows but not before kissing his older brother’s forehead.
Elena is left alone in the ICU, sitting on a chair beside the unconscious Anthony. Gently, she caresses his cheeks, his elegant and tender face, the neat and silky hair. When will her precious angel wake up? She doesn’t know. She kisses his lips and whispers to his ear “I won’t leave you.”
As the Mothership is about to take off into space, a team composed of scientists and soldiers were left behind on a mission to investigate this unknown planet. Elena falls asleep beside her precious boyfriend. 2 weeks have passed, and Anthony is still in a coma, but his condition is stable. Elena and Jamie would take turns in watching over him. It is currently Day 16, and Elena as of now is taking care of Anthony.
Jamie on the other hand is in the cafeteria with his friends and squad mates. While his comrades are busy joking with each other, Jamie remained silent. There is this one person who is displeased to see the Anthony is alive.
“Is everything alright?” Malcolm, the squad’s sniper was the first one to notice Jamie’s silence. “You look troubled sir.”
Jamie replies by making a gesture that only Malcolm will understand. Together they went into his room and Jamie locks the door. “Something’s wrong here.”
“What is it sir?”
“I don’t like the look on Rico’s face.” Jamie finally spoke of his thoughts. Anthony’s rival, Rico was unfortunately one of their commanders, holding the title of Major. Jamie respected his skills, but he didn’t like the pompous attitude. He wondered why his brother was able to handle that kind of person, even follow his orders without hesitation. Is it out of fear? Or is Anthony ignoring the dangers? “My brother! The ICU! Quick!”
Elena was able to hold her ground despite struggling against the taller man. She kicks his shin and lands an uppercut to the chin, giving her time to recover. Rico swings the butterfly knife swiftly as Elena dodges the attacks. She launches a roundhouse kick on his hand, but Rico anticipated the strike and grabs her foot, tripping her down before stabbing her thigh.
“I think I should have fun with you first before killing that weakling.” Rico announces his rotten advances.
“Tch!” Elena spits on his face.
“Oh! Now that’s naughty!” Rico smacks her face and decides to make her his toy. Just as he was about to have his way with her, a gunshot is heard. Malcolm had a clear shot and fired, the bullet piercing through Rico’s temple.
“What the- ?!” Elena shrieked in shock as she saw the assailant drop dead on top of her, with blood gushing out of his forehead. “Get off me you maniac!” she angrily pushed the dead body and takes the butterfly knife, repeatedly stabbing the corpse.
“Enough.” Jamie grabs her arm and disarms her. “He’s dead. Brother is safe.” The gunshot noise alarmed everyone inside the mothership, and they rushed inside with guns in hand. “Ma’am, we have apprehended the traitor.”
“Good work. Now I want that traitor thrown out of the ship!” General Natasha ordered while Jamie follows her. The medics began to treat her wound, stitching it up and covering it with bandages.
“Looks like Captain’s going to write a long report again.” Malcolm chuckled.
“Thanks for saving me.”
“… Didn’t like that arrogant commander.” Malcolm muttered and Elena agrees.
Unbeknownst to them, Anthony’s heart rate that is displayed in the monitor suddenly rose. The unconscious is now awake. He could clearly hear their voices unlike before when it felt slow. Anthony opened his eyes “Where am I?” he weakly asked.
“Anthony?” Elena looks back and so does Malcolm.
“Sir. How many fingers do you see?” Malcolm shows Anthony his index and middle fingers.
“Two.”
“Oh, thank God you’re finally awake!” Elena hugs him tightly. Malcolm on the other hand leaves the room to give them privacy.
“E… Elena… I can’t breathe…” Anthony repeatedly taps her back.
“Oh sorry.” Elena giggled. “I’m glad you’re finally back.”
Anthony recounted what happened when they were separated on the unknown planet. Rico messed the coordinates, and they crash landed, but Elena was able to eject in her emergency capsule while Anthony tried to fix the coordinates and reduce the incoming the damage the ship would sustain. He ended up with wounds, but he was able to get out of the destroyed ship. Anthony went on to look for her, but Rico found him first. Rico beat him and left him for dead. With only his indomitable will keeping him awake, Anthony sent a distress call to headquarters and a medevac was sent. When the medics arrived, including Jamie and his squad, Anthony pleaded with his younger brother to find and ensure that Elena is safe, and to not tell her about his condition. Too exhausted to speak after that, Anthony fell unconscious as the medics started treating his wounds.

Hands Are Cold
Tumblr media
Kili x Reader
Oh my gosh can u do one on killi and reader pleeeeeeaaase
The night was dark, like most nights out on the road, and the air was chilling. You felt like you were frozen solid by the time Thorin finally called for everyone to demount and create camp for the night. Your poor fingers are stiff and your feet are practically burning from how cold they are. Even the thick material and fur on your boots don't block out the chill, and you begin to worry that you might just become a popsicle. 
You, very slowly, retrieve your pack and bedroll from the bags on your horses sides and lay them down on the ground closest to Kili's and nearer to the fire Bofur is building. 
"Y/N, lass can you go get me some more wood?" Bofur asks with a smile on his face.
You nod your head quickly and kick your bedroll over towards Kili, and say "Set that up for me dear." 
He gives you a thumbs up and you flash him a quick grin before trotting off into the trees to find some dry firewood. 
Fortunately it has been relatively dry these past couple of days, though very cold, so it didn't take long for you to compile quite the pile of sticks, leaves, and logs. The rough bark of the wood you've collected hurt your frozen fingers, the cold making them very sensitive to the harsh texture. The way it bites into your skin makes you want to drop it all and be done with it, but you hang on and trudge back to the makeshift camp. 
When you arrive back at camp Bombur is preparing things to make food and most of the bedrolls and watch outpost are all set up. The only thing missing is the fire. The center of the camp. You squat down next to Bofur and drop all the supplies you gathered, smiling happily when he pats the top of your head gratefully. Yeah, being treated like a loyal puppy isn't really all that dignifying, but you can't help but feel excited and helpful during moments like this. 
There is a skip in your step as you walk away, feeling good about how you helped out and got all the right things. Of course once the warmth from your minimal accomplishment wears off the cold set's back in and you're reminded of how frigid your hands and feet still are. 
It doesn't take long for the fire to be built and dinner to be made, and before you know it you've got a warm stew nestled in your hands and your feet are folded under you. It does an adequate job of warming you up, but it doesn't completely chase the chills away. 
When your bowl empties and the heat of the watery stew warms you from within, you find that it actually does nothing to help now that it's gone. 
You place your bowl with the other ones resting next to the pot of stew and return to your bed roll quickly to avoid the glacial air. A couple of the faster eating dwarves are already settling down to sleep as well, so you don't feel super out of place curling up under your blanket next to the fire. Unfortunately you cannot warm more than your front or back at any single time, and you tried sticking your feet closer to the fire but it only made your front half colder since you had to angle yourself the right way. 
In a matter of 30 minutes everyone is done eating and everything is put away. The fire is a lot smaller and less warming than it had been before, so any comfort you found in those 30 minutes of uneven warmth quickly dissipated. 
As it gets darker and later it continues to get colder and colder and very soon you begin to shiver and your teeth begin to chatter uncontrollably. You rub your hands together to create some warmth from friction, but the only thing it does is make your fingers ache from the sudden movement. 
"Y/N...?" A voice whisper yells from somewhere in front of you. 
You slowly sit up and see Kili also sitting up in his bedroll, a worried expression painting his pretty face. An attempt is made to halt the shivering and quiet the clacking of your teeth repeatedly hitting together, but you only succeed in clenching your teeth and tensing uncomfortably. 
"W-What isss i-it?" You stutter out with quite a bit of effort, hugging your blanket tightly against yourself to conserve what little heat you have. 
He gives you a look akin to sympathy before opening up his arms in a way suggesting you come forward. You waste no time in scooting closer with your blanket still clutched tightly around your shoulders, leaning into him heavily as soon as his arms are wrapped around you. 
The tip of your nose is freezing, so when you press your face into the junction between his neck and shoulder you immediately feel a sense of relief despite Kili's deep intake of breath at the sudden temperature difference. 
"Gods Y/N, you're damn near frozen solid," he whispers next to your ear to avoid disturbing others. 
All you offer is a weak shrug in response, clinging onto him as the cold slowly begins to melt away from you. Your poor fingers are stiffer than a board though, and refusing to accept the diluted heat from the shirt separating you from his skin. So what do you do? Put your icicle hands under his shirt and press them against his chest. 
He inhales a surprised and rather displeased, sharp breath at your actions, but you ignore it and press your feet against his own to steal some of his warmth there as well. 
"Hey..! Thats cold!" He protests in with a whisper yell, though he makes no moves to push you away or pull your hands from his shirt. 
He feels solid and toasty underneath your quickly defrosting fingertips, and you can't help but to splay your fingers across the hard plane that is his chest. You release a content hum of approval and go still, simply enjoying your newfound warmth. 
His arms tighten their hold around your middle as he presses a chaste kiss to your forehead. He slowly slides one of his hands up to tangle in your unruly mess of hair, tilting his head up so his chin may rest comfortably against the top of your head. 
"Thank you, Kili..." You mumble with a sleepy wisp to your voice. 
He doesn't reply right away and instead rubs your back soothingly, hoping to provide you with a little more heat to make you more cozy. 
"Anything for you."

Chapter 6, Hospital Visit
✧・゚: *✧・゚:*—~—~—~—~—~—~— *:・゚✧*:・゚✧
Shortly after the police and ambulance arrived with several EMTs, coach Clapp and one teacher you didn’t recognize helped the EMTs move the van enough for your awkward trio of thankfully-not-dead-students out from between the vehicles and into stretchers. Edward successfully denied his stretcher and Bella attempted as well but failed when Edward told the EMT she had fallen and hit her head. Bella was forced to wear a neck-brace, much to her fierce displeasure, while you were just able to sit it your stretcher while one of the ambulance attendants inspected your pained wrist. You tried not to make eye contact with anyone while you were being loaded into the ambulance.
You heard your dad before you saw him. He was yelling for you and Bella. You can hear him talking anxiously to an EMT on Bella’s condition before coming to your ambulance and checking you.
“Y/n, honey, are you alright?” He seemed less panicked than when he was questioning Bella but was still anxious. You shrug,
“My wrist is probably bruised, but other than that, I think I’m alright,” you smile. Your honesty seems to have soothed Charlie’s worry a fraction, which was all you could have hoped for.
The ride to the hospital was short and filled with sirens. You were pushed into the emergency room next to your sister, who looked very displeased with the current situation. You had your temperature taken by a nurse as well as blood pressure. Bella looked around as soon as the nurse left and ripped the velcroed neck-brace off and tossed it under the bed. She glared at you when you laughed. You were cut off by another flurry of medical staff bringing in another stretcher with a boy on it. From the screaming you from before, you guessed this was Tyler, the owner of the van that nearly smushed you and your sister. 
“Bella, I’m so sorry!” Considering his condition, you were surprised he was knocked out cold. As the nurses unwinded the bandages around his head, you saw the small gashes and variously sized cuts littering his forehead and neck. Bella tries to soothe his guilt, but he ignores her, “I thought I was going to kill you! I was going too fast, and I hit the ice wrong-" he winces as a nurse dabs to clean the blood crusting against his skin.
“Don’t worry about it; you missed us,” Bella says. That seems to draw Tyler’s attention to you,
“God, I didn’t even see you! I’m so sorry, Y/n, right?”
“Yup,” you affirm. Tyler looks back to Bella, seemingly still swimming with guilt.
“How did you get out of the way so fast? You were there, and then you were gone…”
“Uhm, Edward pulled us out of the way.” Tyler looks between the two of you in confusion.
“Who?”
“Edward Cullen,” you say, “he was standing next to us.” You’re lying through your teeth and you know it. Bella knows it too, but you had to go along with her lie. Well, it was more Edwards lie than anything. You didn’t like the idea of protecting someone who had been so hostile towards your sister but there wasn’t any other option at this point. Not unless sounding like a crazy, mildly concussed person was the goal.
“Cullen?” Tyler questions, “I didn’t see him… wow, it was all so fast, I guess. Is he okay?”
“I think so?” Bella answers, “He’s here somewhere, but they didn’t make him use a stretcher.” You catch the annoyed tone at the end of her assurance. Of course she was annoyed that she had to be “publicly embarrassed” for her role in the crash and he didn’t. Over time, you had gotten used to all the hospital visits or visits to the nurse. It wasn’t the first time you and Bella had been carted off to the nearest medical room or facility as a pair. Bella still despised all the hassle and attention.
A moment later, They wheel off your sister to get x-rays on her skull. After they finished up her x-rays, they pulled you in as well. You had no concussions or fractures, and your wrist had also survived without any severe damage, which was nice. Casts aren’t exactly fun to live with after the hour of getting signatures on it. 
Shortly after the nurse rolled you back into the waiting area next to Bella, who had closed her eyes, and a still quietly apologizing Tyler, Edward Cullen walks in.  He walks smoothly and silently over to the foot of your sister’s bed, who was still attempting to drown out the sound of a still apologetically babbling Tyler.
“Is she sleeping?” He asks you. His eyes are still completely fixed on Bella as he asks. As if she were a voice-activated machine, Bella’s eyes snap open in surprise. Her sudden surprise fades and is quickly replaced with an unsteady glare and a healthy amount of annoyance. Tyler reminds you of his unfortunate attendance with even more apologizing, though they weren’t aimed at you or Bella this time.
“Hey, Edward, I’m really sorry-” he begins, but Edward lifts a pale hand to stop him. 
“No blood, no foul,” he assures, flashing a brilliantly white smile. Tyler shivers, and looks away from the now three of you. Edward moves fluidly once again, settling on claiming the end of Tyler’s bed as his resting place. He sits facing you and Bella. Smirking, he looks at Bella, “So, what’s the verdict?” he asks. 
“Well, there’s nothing wrong with me at all,” Bella complains. Edward turns his gaze to you. Despite the warm golden hue of his eyes, you can’t help but feel a chill run down your spine at his cold gaze. 
“I’m just fine,” You shrug, “not even the wrist is too hurt, but it’ll probably bruise.” Edward nods, taking his chilly gaze back to Bella before she even speaks. 
“How come you aren’t strapped to a gurney like the rest of us?” she grumbles. You can see the laughter behind Edward’s smile before he talks again.
“It’s all about who you know, but don’t worry, I came to spring you,” he teases.  Bella groans and rolls her eyes. Something catches her eye though, and her jaw literally drops. You turn to look at whatever she was fixated on and saw… a Doctor? 
Turning the corner and headed towards your little accident club was, presumably. a Doctor. A very, very pale Doctor who looked more like a Nurse by age. Despite his almost sickly complexion and under-eye bags that could probably be used to pack for vacation, he was… strangely good looking. He looks younger than you would picture a Doctor to be, certainly, but he looked… almost angelic? Like a biblically inaccurate angel, like the ones you see in Renaissance paintings. Something about him spoke of inhuman beauty, but you couldn’t pin down exactly what it was, and it was actually kind of freaking you out. 
“So, the Miss Swans,” The Doctor greets pleasantly, “How are you two ladies feeling?”
“I’m fine,” Bella says quietly. You can tell she’s exasperated at this point as the Doctor reaches over to the lightbox holding the x-rays of your sister’s skull and flicks on the light.
“Doing good,” you answer. Despite the heavy dread sitting in your chest, you managed to sound normal. Then again, Bella’s reactions were your only point of reference to guess off of, and she was rather distracted with the Cullen boy beside her. Speaking of… Cullen. 
You realize the Doctor looks strikingly similar to Edward. The ridiculous paleness, the angular features, and the wholly unique golden-hued irises. Handsome man, a doctor, and father to Edward? This must be Dr. Cullen that your father had talked about.
“You’re x-rays look good. Does your head hurt?” he asks, “Edward said you hit it pretty hard.” Bella throws a withering glare over at Edward as she sighs, 
“I’m fine.” She mumbles again. Dr. Cullen hums thoughtfully and begins examining her head, gently touching his fingertips against her scalp. When he touches over a spot on her head where she had hit the ground she winces and you flinch. 
“Tender?” The Doctor asks. 
“Not really,” Bella responds. She was probably thinking in comparison to other head injuries. And past head injuries there are many. It certainly wasn’t as bad as the time she fell off her bike and rolled down the hill and hit a rock. There were probably several visible healed head injuries that one could see if looking at the x-rays. Now that you thought of it, there were probably a few on your own x-rays. 
“Well,” Dr. Cullen stands back upright with a smile, “Your father is in the waiting room- you can go home with him now. But come back if you feel dizzy or have trouble with your eyesight at all.”
“Can’t I go back to school?” Bella asks anxiously. Funny, how she’d rather go back to school with the intimidating bagel hater, instead of going home. Thinking of it though, it made sense with her character to not want to go home with an anxious and presumably attentive Charlie. 
“Maybe you should take it easy today,” The Doctor chuckles. Bella glances over at Edward, 
“Does he get to go to school?” You snicker at Bella’s obvious agitation. Edward chuckles, 
“Someone has to spread the good news that we all survived,” He says smugly.
“Actually,” Dr. Cullen corrects, “Most of the school seems to be in the waiting room.” Bella groans and slides back down from her sitting position into a hunched laying with her hands over her eyes. The Doctor raises an eyebrow at her reaction, “Do you want to stay?” He asks perplexed. 
“No, no!” Bella assures, throwing her legs over the side of the bed and hopping down swiftly. Too swiftly, if fact, as her momentum nearly has her topple over. Dr. Cullen catches her easily, but he looks over her in silent concern. “I’m fine,” she insists.
“Take some Tylenol for the pain,” he advises as he steadies your flushed and unbalanced sister.
“It doesn’t hurt that bad,” She insists again.
“It sounds like you were very lucky,” Dr. Cullen says as he signs off on Bella’s chart. He walks over to you and smiles. 
“Lucky Edward happened to be standing next to us,” Bella clarifies. Her gaze reverts back to Edward for a moment.
“Oh, yes,” The Doctor agrees almost absentmindedly as he picks up your chart from the edge of your bed and looks through the papers. “Let’s take a look at that wrist now, shall we?” He smiles and you extend your arm out. You try not to flinch when his cold hands come in contact with your skin, but you can’t help but grimace. “Does that hurt at all?” he asks. You shrug.
“A little. I’ve had worse, though I’m sure it’ll be a nasty bruise later,” you say. Dr. Cullen chuckles and looks over to your x-rays. You can see Bella and Edward moving behind him, walking to the far corner of the long room. Edward looks annoyed, if not aggressive. 
“It seems so. Your x-rays look clean, though it does appear you’ve broken your wrist before?” You snap back to your current situation and laugh at the doctor’s observation.
“Yeah. I fell out of a few trees when I was little. And down the stairs… and off bikes.” He chuckles again at your explanations. Did you sound as nervous as you felt?
“Ah, so it seems both of the Swan girls are magnets for accidents, hm?” You shrug with an awkward smile. Dr. Cullen looks over your head, pressing his cold fingers gently against your scalp as he searched for any bumps. As he works, you see Edward walking away from your sister, who seems frozen in place. Whatever they were talking about didn’t go very well.
“Eh. Mostly me trying to keep Bella out of said accidents, but yeah.” He stands back upright and gives you another charming but unsettling smile. 
“Well then, it seems you’re good to go! As with your sister, take some Tylenol for the pain, and come back it if you feel any sharp pain in your wrist, or have any visual impairments or dizziness.”  You nod at his advice as he reaches down to sign off on your chart. 
“Alright, thanks Doctor, have a good day,” You swing your legs off the bed, much more efficiently and with better balance than Bella had, and stand up. The doctor waves you off and you walk over to your sister. “Hey, Bells?” You put a hand on Bella’s shoulder and she nearly jumps as she snaps her head to look at you. You can see her face is flushed and her eyes are glossy. 
Unlike most people, Bella almost never cried when she was sad. Weirdly enough, this was one of many qualities you had accidentally picked up growing up with Bella. She only ever ired when extremely upset to the point of breaking down, or when he was angry. You only half shared that part, since you almost never cried when genuinely angry.
“Hey, let’s go home, alright?” Bella nods stiffly, shoving her hands in her pockets, and shuffles with you towards the door. You have one of your arms around her back as you walk, partly to support her both balance-wise and emotionally, and partly to gently hurry her along.
Once you made it to the waiting room, Bella nearly cringed herself out of existence. It looked like the entire school was packing into the little reception area, including some people you didn’t fully recognize. Charlie quickly rushes up to your sides and Bella puts up her hands in mock surrender. 
“There’s nothing wrong with us,” she grumbles tiredly. She was obviously is a sour mood and was itching to just get home. 
“What did the doctor say?” Charlie presses anxiously. It wasn’t much like your father to be so… fatherly? Then again, you didn’t have much of a basis to judge that on. Renne had never been one to really “parent” you or Bella. Maybe all parents were like this.
“Dr. Cullen saw us, Dad. He said we’re good to go home,” you assure him. Bella squeezes closer to your side as students start getting closer.
“Let’s go,” Bella urges. Charlie swiftly ushers both of you out of the hospital walls and into the cruiser. For the first time ever, Bella seems relieved to be in the police car. You wave at your friends in the crowd quickly spilling out of the hospital’s doors as Charlie pulls the vehicle out and onto the road.
The drive home was silent as it ever was. Charlie had kept the radio off as he drove like he usually did, so that left you to put in your earbuds and listen to music as you drove the short way home.
As Charlie pulls into the driveway, he clears his throat.
“Um… you’ll need to call Renee,” he says, hanging his head in guilt, trying to avoid your sister’s gaze. 
“You told mom?!” Bella practically wails. Charlie mumbles out a quiet apology before getting out. You and Bella get out of the cruiser, and she slams the car door, making you wince. 
Bella heads upstairs when you get into the house, and you just drop off your backpack into your chair at the table before going to the telephone. First things first, you needed to call Renee.
You call twice and she picks up the second time.
“Hey Mom,” you greet gently.
“Oh, sweetheart! Are you okay? Where’s Bella, is she alright? Please tell me you girls are alright!” Renne frets. 
“Yeah Mom, we’re alright. Hold on,” You lean the receiver into your chest as you call up the stairs, “Hey Bells! I got Mom on the phone, come talk to her!” Bella shuffles down the stairs, changed into her comfy sweatpants and a large sweatshirt. She grabs the phone and talks to your mother, assuring a panicked Renee that you both were in fact fine and well. 
“Oh, I can’t believe something like this could happen, my poor girls!” She wails. It took nearly 20 minutes to calm your mother, including her talking to Charlie and making triple sure her daughters were alright. Once that was over though and you said your farewells, the day was relatively calm. Charlie popped into your room every once in a while to make sure you were alive and even helped you make lunch.
Dinner was the quiet meal you had come to expect and was over quickly.  Bella bid you and Charlie a good night right after dinner and presumably went to sleep. 
You hung out with Charlie in the living room as he watches a random sports show while you say on the ground, using the coffee table to hold your sketchbook as you doodled and sketched. 
It was about 8 o’clock when you decided to pack up your things back up and go to sleep. You hugged your dad goodnight, went upstairs to grab some Tylenol, and settled into bed.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:*—~—~—~—~—~—~— *:・゚✧*:・゚✧
A/n: Hey guys! I’m so sorry this is posted so much later than I had promised. I had an unforeseen grocery shopping trip last night (after realizing we had no food in the house) and went to bed very late as a result (making dinner took forever) and had some school things I had to attend outside of the usual online classes after school today. Please don’t be mad at me (; ^ ;) I’m doing my best!

Early Morning Mayhem - Poe Dameron x reader (fluff)
Tumblr media
Warnings: some mentions of anxiety, other than that it's pretty fluffy, 2,735 words
A/N: This was not requested but I've had this idea since I watched TROS (which was literally months ago at this point). I haven't written for the Star Wars fandom before but I'd love to write some stuff for characters from any of the three trilogies, Rogue 1, or the several tv series-es! Request away if you have any ideas/concepts I could make into some oneshots, and enjoy this fun little Poe fic :)
When Snap Wexley joined the Resistance, he begged you to come with him. You had been neighbors since you were children growing up on Akiva, and were nearly inseparable by the time you were five. When you were ten, Nora Wexley taught you both how to fly, and when you were twelve, you helped him cope with her sudden departure. You collected scrap metal and spare parts for him to sell when he opened his small business, and when his mother finally returned, you kept the shop open while he helped her hunt down Imperial fugitives.
You were blatantly displeased when he told you he’d been recruited as a fighter pilot, and rightfully so. The last thing you wanted was for your best friend to get blown up into a million tiny pieces. Naturally, your concerns sparked a heated debate about the soundness of his decision:
“I’m just worried, that’s all,” you said exasperatedly.
“(Y/n), I’m literally the best pilot you know,” Snap joked. You rolled your eyes.
“The First Order isn’t going to give a damn about how great you are while they’re trying to kill you!” A pause. “I just don’t want you to get hurt, Snap. I wouldn’t be able to deal with it if you did,” you said softly.
“So come with me then,” Snap replied instantly. You blinked.
“Excuse me?”
“Come with me, join the Resistance. You’ll be able to know where I am and what I’m doing all the time, so you’ll be less worried,” he stated matter-of-factly.
“Yea, but what will I do?” you asked. “I’m not gonna enlist as a pilot, we both know I can’t fly under pressure.” Snap chuckled and nodded.
“True, but you’re also the best mechanic I know. I’m sure the Resistance is gonna need someone to fix all the X-wings I’m bound to break.”
You laughed quietly, then looked around at the stacks of broken machinery piled high in Snap’s home.
“What about the shop?” you asked.
“(Y/n),” Snap said seriously, “the Resistance is going to support you way more than any profits from this place ever will.” He gestured wildly to the store around him. “This isn’t important. You’d be stupid to stay if you’re thinking about the money.”
You nodded, chewing your bottom lip thoughtfully (a nervous habit). Finally you looked back up at him.
“I’ll do it,” you stated firmly.
“Really?”
“Really.”
When you arrived at the Resistance base on D’Qar, Snap had eagerly introduced you to Goss Toowers, one of the senior starship mechanics for the Resistance’s fleet. Goss had been thrilled you wanted to join the technical crew, and offered you a position as a mechanic right away (“This is so exciting, we love getting new members on tech crew,” he had gushed happily. You couldn’t help but smile).
You found that the Resistance’s fleet of T-70 X-wings were quite similar to the T-65 models you had learned to fly with Snap back home, just with slightly different engines and weapons pods. It didn’t take you long to establish yourself as one of the most skilled mechanics on the tech crew, with the most severely damaged X-wings going directly to your station after battles.
You had to admit, you understood why Snap had been so eager to join the Resistance. You felt like you had become a part of something much bigger and more important than yourself, and you truly enjoyed every moment of your job.
You also enjoyed getting to know the many technicians and pilots you worked with. You’d always been more reserved with people you didn’t know well, but it had only taken you a few days to become close friends with Jess Pava.
Jess had also made it her mission to introduce you to as many of the fighter pilots as she could (“Then you can know whose X-wing you’re fixing,” she’d pointed out). While it was certainly overwhelming at first, you were more than grateful for the new friendships you had formed.
That being said, there were many pilots you had yet to meet, including the famed Poe Dameron.
It wasn't like you didn’t know who he was, everyone knew about Commander Dameron and his seemingly endless list of accomplishments - you’d even performed repairs on his distinct X-wing once or twice . Still, the closest you had gotten to meeting him was when you watched him climb out of his slightly damaged cockpit after a narrow victory over the First Order; he’d disappeared into a sea of celebrating rebels before you’d gotten the chance to say hello.
That’s why it was startling when he ran up to you in the cafeteria in the middle of the night, asking you to fix his ship.
There had been a small skirmish the day before that had escalated into a larger fight, resulting in many casualties. The mechanic team had spent the entire day fixing up the X-wing fleet, which had proved to be quite exhausting. 
By midnight, most of your fellow mechanics had gone to bed, saving the rest of the repairs for the next day. You’d finally decided that your lack of energy was inhibiting your ability to work, so you’d decided to get a few hours of sleep before resuming the repairs.
You were just grabbing a cup of tea on the way to your room when you heard someone frantically yelling your name.
“(Y/n)! (Y/n)!”
You turned around quickly, seeing none other than Poe Dameron sprinting towards you, his well-known orange BB unit following behind him.
You blinked twice in confusion, honestly thinking you were so tired you had begun to hallucinate. No, you concluded, watching as Poe came to a stop in front of you, hunched over slightly and panting to catch his breath; the man in front of you was very real, and seemed very concerned.
“Uh, yes?” you replied slowly, absolutely bewildered as to why a Resistance Commander would be looking for you at two in the morning.
“X-wing, needs repairs,” Poe managed breathlessly, still recovering from his intense running stint. The droid beside him beeped twice in agreement, wobbling quickly from side to side.
“Yea, I’m so sorry I didn’t get to fixing it today, but it’ll definitely be done some time tomorrow-” you started, but Poe quickly cut you off.
“Leia needs me to go on a mission in two hours,” he interrupted, “and with the upper left wing mostly detached, I don’t think I’ll be able to make it out of the hangar, let alone to Onderon.” 
You felt your heart drop, realizing the gravity of the situation. His brows furrowed, seeming to sense your nervousness.
“Hey, you okay?” he asked, concern laced in his voice. “You just got super pale.”
“Yea, yea I’m fine,” you reassured softly, though he did not seem convinced. “I’ll, uh, I’ll go and fix it up right now.”
You bit your lip as you turned to go, realizing it was going to be nearly impossible to fix his ship in two hours. The wing wasn’t the only thing that was damaged - Goss had said something about a problem with both the engine and the flight computer. While you were definitely capable of fixing them, you knew it was going to take a significant amount of time, and you were already so tired.
“Wait, (Y/n),” Poe said, grabbing your arm and gently turning you back to face him. You blushed, immediately moving out of his grip. If Poe noticed he didn’t say anything.
“BB-8 and I can help you if you want, I know I fucked up my ship pretty bad,” he chuckled bashfully, rubbing the back of his neck. You smiled a little and nodded.
“Yea, you definitely did,” you joked softly. Poe smiled, and you blushed again, looking down at the floor. “Um, if you’d like to help I’d appreciate that very much.”
“Alright then, off to the hangar!” he exclaimed, jogging out of the hangar and taking off down the hall.
“Does he run everywhere?” you asked BB-8, who beeped a quick ‘yes’ before rushing out of the room to follow Poe.
~~~~~
An hour later, you’d managed to reattach the wing and had started to rewire the flight computer. It seemed like enemy fire had severed the connection between the computer and the rest of the ship, so you’d have to reconnect it before doing anything else.
Poe had been working on the damaged part of the left split-engine. The upper engine had been damaged along with the wing - nothing too serious, and Poe had assured you that he’d done similar repairs many times before.
“I think the engine is all set,” he called. You looked over your shoulder to where he was straddling the engine, mindlessly tossing a wrench he’d borrowed from you between his hands.
“Do you want me to check it?” you asked from where you were perched on the front part of the ship. He looked up at you and nodded, groaning as the wrench he’d been playing with dropped to the floor.
You laughed and jumped onto the ground, picking the metal tool up off the ground on your way over to him. You peered into the engine, carefully inspecting his work.
“Looks great!” you smiled as you looked up at him, setting the metal tool down next to him.
“Thank you very much, miss mechanic,” he replied with a grin. You rolled your eyes as he picked the wrench up and began to toss it again - Jess was right, Poe Dameron truly was a five year old trapped in a thirty-two year old’s body.
You stretched your arms over your head and sighed. You were still very tired, but Poe’s relentless chatter had woken you up somewhat.
“How’s the computer looking?” he asked.
“Alright,” you replied, climbing up the ladder you’d set against the ship earlier. “I’m almost done reconnecting the computer system to the ship, and then I have to turn it on and see if I need to reprogram anything.”
“Sounds very technical,” Poe said thoughtfully. You laughed and nodded, picking up a stray black wire and beginning to feed it into its designated port.
“This part is mostly just putting the right wires in the right spot, so not super complicated,” you said. “It’s basically a puzzle.”
“Well, it looks pretty complicated to me,” Poe said, hopping down from the top of the engine to put the wrench back in your toolbox. You grinned as you snapped the final wire into place.
“BB-8, can you turn the ship on?” you called to the small droid sitting in the astromech socket. BB-8 chirped happily, and after a few seconds you felt the X-wing rumble to life. From where you were sitting, you could see the panels in the cockpit begin to light up.
“The flight computer is officially reconnected,” you stated, getting up and doing a small happy dance as you walked over to the cockpit.
Poe laughed as you hopped in, squinting at the dashboard in front of you.
“Can you hand me the little red case in my toolbox?” you asked Poe.
“Yes ma’am,” he said, saluting you jokingly as he grabbed the toolbox and reached up into the cockpit to hand it to you.
You mumbled a thank you and grabbed the case, covering your mouth with your free hand as you stifled a yawn. 
“You tired?” he asked, folding his arms across the edge of the cockpit and using his hand to prop his head up.
You nodded, opening the case and grabbing a thin metal rod. Some of the lights on the dash were flickering, and a few hadn’t turned on at all. You figured some of the integrated circuits inside the dashboard had come loose during the fighting.
“I’ve been up since five,” you said, pressing a button on the dashboard and removing the control panel.
“In the afternoon?” Poe said, grabbing hold of the control panel as you passed it to him.
“This morning,” you clarified, reaching into the now exposed circuit board of the ship. You grinned, your theory having been right, and used the metal rod to jostle some of the computer chips back into place.
“So you’ve been working all day then?” Poe asked. You nodded, looking back at him and frowning at the guilty look on his face.
“What’s wrong?” you asked, taking the dashboard back into your own hands.
“I’m so sorry for asking you to do this,” he groaned, covering his face with his hands. “I should’ve asked Goss or someone else.”
“Poe, it’s fine,” you said reassuringly, sliding the panel back into place.
“No, it’s not,” he said bluntly. “I bet you were going back to your room when I found you, right?”
You bit your lip and nodded slowly, grimacing as Poe cursed and jumped back onto the ground.
“I’m such an asshole!” he groaned.
“Poe, look at me,” you called, waiting until he finally met your gaze to continue talking. “I agreed to do this, remember? This isn’t your fault at all.”
“I still feel bad,” he muttered.
“An all-nighter every once in a while doesn’t do any harm,” you said nonchalantly, sliding out of the cockpit. “And I wasn’t going to sleep much anyways.”
He looked at you softly as you set your tools back down on your work table and wiped your hands on your pants. You looked up at him and grinned, then gestured to his ship.
“She’s ready for flying, Dameron,” you beamed. He chuckled walking over to you and pulling you into a tight hug.
“Thank you so much, (Y/n),” he said, voice slightly muffled by your hair.
“You’re very welcome, Poe,” you replied, relishing in the feeling of his strong arms and chest under his flight suit. “You can ask me to fix your ship anytime.”
“I will definitely take advantage of that,” he said, pulling back and looking down at you. “It always flies better after you fix it.” You gasped, grinning in pleasant surprise.
“You notice when I fix your X-wing?” you asked. He nodded.
“Of course I do, half the time I make sure it goes directly to you after I get back from skirmishes and the like,” he added. You bit your lip and looked down at your feet.
“I didn’t know you knew who I was,” you admitted softly. He laughed, using his hand to tilt your head back up. You blushed, a little lost in his dark brown eyes.
“(Y/n), everyone knows who you are, you’re like the best mechanic in the Resistance,” he said genuinely. You smiled bashfully at his compliment.
“Thank you,” you said softly. He nodded and stepped back, grabbing his helmet from the table next to you.
“Well, duty calls,” he said, a grin on his face as he put his helmet on. You giggled.
“Be safe,” you said.
“Anything for my favorite mechanic,” he replied with a wink. You blushed again and looked down at your shoes.
“You ready, bud?” Poe called to BB-8, who beeped excitedly. He laughed and climbed into the cockpit, looking back at you before he shut it.
“Would you like to go out for dinner when I get back?” he asked, a smile on his face. You grinned, setting your hand on your hip.
“Are you asking me on a date, Dameron?” you asked. He bit his lip and nodded.
“I do believe I am.”
“Well,” you replied, “if you don’t unintentionally snap another wing off your X-wing, I’ll most definitely be available.” Poe laughed.
“See you tonight then!” he called as he closed the cockpit.
You backed up and waved as he made his way out of the hangar and onto the runway outside. You were still grinning as he took off, and you didn’t stop watching him until his ship was just a speck against the dark sky.
Two hours ago, you were sitting in the cafeteria with your cup of tea, and now you had been invited to dinner by the Poe Dameron, who apparently both knew who you were and admired your work. It was a lot to take in.
You grabbed your toolbox and headed over to the next ship awaiting repairs; you still had a lot of work to finish if you wanted to sneak in a nap before going on a date with the best pilot in the Resistance.

Clean Cut
All Tangled Up
Obiyuki AU Bingo Rapunzel AU
“Are you ready to be rescued?”
In retrospect, it’s a stupid question to ask. He’d meant it to be rhetorical; most women in her situation-- not that Obi goes around rescuing women from towers, but he assumes-- would jump at the opportunity. They would squeal, falling into his arms, eyes wide and limpid, and thank him profusely. They would throw their arms around his neck and tell him how strong and impressive he was, how handsome, how clever. After all, flattery could get you anywhere-- he would know.
Instead, barely missing a beat, this girl says, “No.”
He blinks. “What?”
“Oh, not that-- yes to the rescue!” she clarifies, screwing the lid back on the ointment. “But I’m not nearly ready! Can I have a few minutes?”
He should have said no. He should have tossed her over his shoulder and hauled her out the window like the brigand Sir thinks he is.
Instead, he says, “Don’t see why not.”
Oh, but now-- now he does.
“We do need to to get a move on,” he reminds her, watching her disappear behind the wardrobe door. “This is a rescue, Miss.”
“Oh!” She peeps back around, those bright eyes all wide and glittering. “Just one more minute! I’m almost finished.”
Obi strangles a sigh, hand rubbing at his shoulder. When His High and Mighty told him that he’d have to rescue a girl in a tower, he’d imagined a crooked, vine-covered thing, its stone crumbling and its wide-eyed ingenue dressed in rags, her sweet voice trembling as she asks, are you a man?
Needless to say, this is a bit of a let down.
Or it would be, if the waifish ingenue hadn’t turned out to be-- well, entirely different.
This place is a far cry from a dismal prison. There’s no choking vines; instead the room is awash in green, plants creeping out of pots or suspended from the ceiling above, every single one fresh and healthy. The girl’s never been outside, oh no, but it seems she found a way for the outside to be brought to her.
And that’s not even talking about this furniture. Someone could have swiped it all straight from some queen’s boudoir it’s so fancy, all dark carved woods with enamel inlays. She might be a prisoner, but this girl hasn’t suffered from lack.
“Take your time.” One finger plucks at the contraption on her table, something with steel balls hung from wooden dowels. He lets go of one, and it hits the other with a clack-clack, sending the last flying, and--
All right, he’s getting distracted. Leave him to underestimate the sort of clutter a girl could accumulate when she’s kept by a king.
“After all,” he mutters, “it’s not like we could be interrupted by your royal jailer--”
“He’s not my jailer.” The words come out, whip fast. “King Shenezard has kept me safe since I was a baby, and not once has he ever treated me poorly.”
Bold words, coming from a girl walled up in a tower. “Right, and that’s why you’re so eager to get rescued. Makes sense.”
There’s no impassioned protest to that, just an uneasy silence that settles in the air, setting him on edge. She’s second guessing all this; he can tell by her harsh rasp of breath, by the way she kneels, unmoving, in front of the wardrobe.
Well, that won’t do at all. He’s got a reputation to maintain.
“Hey,” he ventures, leaning just enough to peep around the door. “What’s taking so--”
For a solid minute, Obi forgets how to talk.
It’s a king’s ransom in there; gowns made velvet and brocade, kirtles of silk and paper-thin cotton, every bit laced and bejeweled with the sort of embroidery it takes a host of skilled seamstresses months to make. He could make a killing just selling one of those dresses, let alone a closet full. He’d have enough guilders to retire to a nice little island and sleep on a giant pile of money.
“Sorry!” she pipes, finally rolling back into action. “I have all I need from my plants, I just have to get clothes. Can’t walk around naked, after all!”
He just bites back, why not? Not the right crowd for that kind of talk. Not with Sir Stick-Up-His-Ass waiting for them back in the bushes.
Instead, he sits back. Her bag sits open at her feet, already almost full to the brim, and he can’t help but laugh thinking how she might fit those walking rob me signs into it, but--
But she doesn’t touch them. Instead, she reaches into the drawers beneath, pulling out humble muslin dresses, rolled with delicate care. One after another she compresses them tight, careful to stuff them over and around her samples. Soil smears on more than a few, but she pays it no mind, almost as if--
As if she did not care for them at all. As if all they were good for was to cushion her more precious treasures, sealed away in their paper envelopes.
“If you’re not going to take those,” he starts, left-footed and awkward, no longer sure how to speak to someone who doesn’t even know what fortune she’s sleeping on, “then I’ll take my finder’s fee in cl--”
Her skirt moves, skipping up over her ankles as she settles back on her heels, and--
And she’s not wearing shoes. Where he’d grown up, that would hardly raise a brow, and it’s not like this young miss has ever gone out to feel the grass under her feet but--
All these riches, and she’s barefoot, like some beggar girl. Even at a glance he can tell: there’s not a slipper’s toe to be found in that wardrobe, nor a boot’s lace. No point to keeping a girl in a tower if she could just walk away.
His stomach churns, his jaw clamping down before a single thought could slip from between his teeth. It’s not his business. The job is not for him to pity this girl. Besides, His Handsome Highness will see to it that she has more footwear than feet the moment she steps inside his castle.
At least, Obi hopes.
He settles back against her desk, the plants pricking at his coat. This isn’t his problem. He’s supposed to get her to her prince and go. Not--
“Aaagh?” squawks a little monster, squatting right by his elbow.
It’s been years since any man or beast has gotten the jump on him, but one look at this little hellion and Obi leaps sky high, scrambling to get back. He may even say some choice four-letter words.
The young miss peeks around the wardrobe, every inch of her frown steeped in disapproval. “Don’t yell at Ryuu! He’s very shy.”
Funny, it hadn’t felt very shy when it tried to put one of those funky little three-toed hands on him. Still, she’s looking pretty cross, and the little guy has turned terracotta, trying to hide behind one of her pots. “Ah, sorry.”
Her frown deepens. “Don’t tell me, tell Ryuu.”
Obi stares down at the beady-eyed thing. Right. Apologize the to hellbeast. That tracks. “Sorry, Ryuu.”
That pleases her, at least. She sweeps over to them, cradling the strange thing in her hands. It croaks when she brings it up to her shoulder, settling right by her neck.
“Ryuu understands,” she assures him, quite serious. “He surprised you.”
And it’s an unearthly creature that probably drinks blood or eats human flesh, but sure, Obi can go with that.
“He’s still very shy.” The young miss fixes him with a stern look, fists on her hips. “I don’t think he’ll be comfortable with you for a while.”
“That’s...” Fine by him. “...too bad.”
“Don’t take it personally.” She reaches at a finger, rubbing at the ridge between its bulbous eyes. “It took him forever to venture out of the plants and say hello! I’m sure he’ll like you once he gets to know you.”
That is generally not how the trajectory of his acquaintance goes, but thankfully he won’t be around long enough for her to know that. “Are you ready to go?”
She blinks, peering down at her bag as if she forgot she even held it. “Oh! Yes! Are you?”
He grins, enjoying the way her lips curve in reply. “Born ready. Now we just need some rope.”
Her brow furrows. “Rope? Can’t we do what you did on the way up?”
Obi shakes his head. “I can do that by myself, but with you...” He stares pointedly at the braid wrapped around both her feet and half the room. “You’re a bit of a heavy load for free climbing.”
Her mouth rumples thoughtfully. “I don’t have any rope.”
Right. That would go hand-in-hand with the whole no shoes thing. No point in locking a girl in a tower if she can just leave any time she wants. “How’d His Highness even--?”
His teeth snap shut over that question. He already knows the answer; he’s been trying his damnedest not to step on it since he got up here.
“Hm.” A light sparks in those eyes of hers, lips curling into a smile that fills him with an immediate, visceral bad feeling. “I have an idea.”
“Miss--”
“Can I borrow your knife?”
There are a host of appropriate answers to that question: no, hell no, absolutely not, are you crazy?
Too bad he picks none of them.
Her laugh is sweet when the blade pops from it’s handle, pleasantly surprised. That’s what paralyzes him; this small girl and her bubbling laugh, holding a knife that left red on the rag the last time he cleaned it. There’s no other reason for him stay still, not when she lifts it so close to her neck and slices.
Red pours over the blade now, slipping like silk down its sharp edge but--
“Oh,” she hums, displeased. “I thought this would be much easier.”
He blinks, staring at the severed braid. Or rather, a quarter of it; even with such a sharp edge, nothing could cut all the way through that in one go.
“You’ve got a lot of it,” he remarks helpfully. “Only makes sense you’d need a couple whacks.”
Miss’s mouth bows into a frown. “It sounds so much easier in stories.”
She raises the knife again, and this time her hair parts easily beneath the blade, sliding from her like a snake’s skin, making her a new creature entirely.
An even cuter one, unfortunately.
“Wow,” she murmurs, staring at the endless coil of plait at her feet. “My head...doesn’t hurt anymore.”
His jaw snaps shut, and he swallows, trying to bring back some wetness in his mouth. “I don’t see how that’s helping us get out.”
“Hm? Oh.” Her smile parts, rucking into a mischievous grin. “That.”
She heaves the braid into her arms and marches to the window, dropping in unceremoniously onto the sill.
“There,” she says, and with no fanfare at all, drives his knife through it.
Obi has lived an exciting life. He’s done several very intriguing things with some very improper ladies in his time, sometimes in some very dangerous places, and yet--
It all pales to the smack of desire that hits as he watches her arm arc down, catching the braid square in the middle of the plait. Not a single woman on her knees can satisfy him the way her eyes do in that moment; not a single pair of pouty lips have ever enticed him as much as her smile.
A terrible thing to realize, when her princely suitor is keeping her throne warm for her.
The young miss straightens, proudly surveying her work. “That’s as good as any rope.”
Obi saunters over, giving it a good tug. “Nice and sturdy. Well done.”
She beams at him, so bright it puts the sun to shame, and--
And he needs to get going. Now. With or without her. Before any of this gets worse.
“All right then, Miss.” He hops onto the sill, back toward her, wrapping the plait tight around his palm. It’s silky, softer than rope, pleasant against his skin.
She hesitates. “Erm?”
“I’ll see you down safe.” He tosses her a grin over his shoulder. “Just grab on.”
“This really isn’t what I meant,” Obi grunts, adjusting a pale arm so it’s less against his throat. “You don’t need to hold so tight, Miss.”
“It’s a long way down,” she mentions conversationally, gasping as his grip slips along the rope, dropping them down another few inches. “I think I need to hold on as tight as I can.”
“Yes, but if you choke me, then I’ll pass out, and we all fall to our deaths.” He grits his teeth as a tiny hellbeast tongue darts out against his cheek. “You said these things don’t drink blood, right?”
“Ryuu would never!” That’s not the question he asked, but she plows on, “He wouldn’t hurt a fly if he didn’t have to eat them!”
“Great,” he mutters. “Just what I wanted to hear.”
It’s a relief when he finally stretches out a toe and feel sweet, sweet solid ground beneath it.
“Here we are,” he huffs, dropping down to the flat of his feet. The young miss tightens her grip, arms nearly choking him as her thighs hug his hips and-- well, his head is getting all sorts of mixed reactions from that combination. “The great wide world.”
Her hand eases from his shoulders, dangling over his chest, and she hesitates, pressing her weight into his back.
“Didn’t you hear me?” He turns his head, brushing cheeks. “You’re free.”
He doesn’t expect the fear he sees there, the reluctance. She stares at the ground, the white nearly all around her eyes, her fingers trembling where they grip his shoulder.
“Oh,” she breathes, gathering herself. “Just-- just give me a moment.”
“Take your time, Miss.” The words come out too soft, too-- too much. He lets a grin slant his lips, and he ventures, “I’m getting real used to having your legs wrapped around--”
“Oh!” She drops off him with a gasp, cheeks pink, taking a few flailing steps away from him. “I didn’t mean-- ohhh.”
Her toes curl experimentally in the grass, and she looks up at him, smile too wide, too bright. “It tickles!”
He need to-- to be doing anything else right now, anything at all that isn’t staring dumbly at her, risking more-- more tender feelings. His Highness might be paying him a mint for this job, but things like that are still a luxury a man like him can’t afford.
“Hey.” He jerks a thumb back toward the tower. “You want the hair?”
Her gaze sweeps back at it, and her face sets, hard, determined. “No. If Raj likes it so much, he’s welcome to it.”
Another donkey kick of heat flashes through him, and oh, this job can not end fast enough.
“Shirayuki!” Tall, dark, and dutiful bursts from the brush, stampeding over to sweep the girl into a hug tight enough to kill an elephant.
“Mitsuhide,” she gasps, patting him hard on the back. “It’s so good to see you.”
Mister sets her down, hands eclipsing her small shoulders. “Are you all right? Did you get hurt? Shall I offer you assist--”
“I’m fine!” she assures him with a laugh. “Obi took good care of me.”
The knight straightens, mouth thinning as he remembers that Obi exists, that he’s standing right there probably thinking unlawful thoughts, or whatever paragons of virtue worry about. “Ah. Right. Obi. Of course.”
Begrudgingly, as if every word was a thorn dug into his side, he adds, “Thank you.”
It’s a sentiment immediately belied by the way he draws the shackles from his pouch, holding them out with an air of impatience that rankles.
“Aw, come on, Mister,” he wheedles, shuffling a step back, “haven’t I earned my freedom?”
The man stares, as imposing as a cliff face. “How.”
Obi bats his eyelashes, attempting his most winsome expression. “Good behavior?”
He hesitates. “Shirayuki, did he say anything untoward to you while you were alone in the tower?”
Wuh-oh.
“No!” The young miss draws herself up to her full height, a good foot shorter than her knightly companion. “Obi was a perfect gentleman.”
He nods, reluctantly removing the shackles from the conversation, stuffing them in--
“Well.” The girl taps a finger to her chin. “I don’t think so.”
To his everlasting horror, she adds, “What does--” she repeats some choice four-letter words-- “mean?”
Sir stares. The shackles jingle.
Obi holds out his hands with a sigh. “Yeah, all right. I deserve this.”
The knight sighs, iron closing with a clank around his wrists. “Let’s go, reprobate.”
