#BUT I LOVE THE IDEA OF THE BLACK AND WHITE BOYFRIENDS AUGH | Explore Tumblr Posts and Blogs

first general thoughts on ep 5.

For all the press talk about “toxic masculinity,” I think it’s really more accurate to talk about it as “straight white toxic masculinity.” Not a coincidence that it’s Butcher and Hughie, 2 straight white guys, who end up allying with Soldier Boy, while Annie, a woman, and MM, a Black man, decided it wasn’t worth partnering with him to take down Homelander. The patriarchy & misogyny go hand in hand with racism & white supremacy which go hand in hand with ableism & eugenics; all of these ideas are deeply intertwined and used together to create and maintain societal systems of oppression and control. Of course women and people of color can be complicit within this system, scrambling to get ahead in a rigged game, like we’re seeing with Ashley and A-Train, but it’s much easier for them, or people they know / care for, to get screwed over by the system anyway, even if they try to play along.

There are the obvious parallels between between Homelander & Soldier Boy in this ep - in the face of past girlfriends telling them they hated them instead of loving them, they both react with brutal violence (altho it does seem like Maeve is alive) - but there’s also Butcher, too. All 3 of them have torn apart their teams: Solider Boy literally in killing Crimson Countess and going after the rest of them, and Homelander and Butcher more metaphorically, with Homelander becoming a tyrant who refuses to hear bad news and has whittled down his support to be only people who will kiss his ass, and Butcher in how his revenge quest led to Frenchie being drawn back into Little Nina’s orbit and Kimiko getting badly hurt, with his drugging of MM as the final stab in the back for the Boys. I found Butcher allying with Soldier Boy by offering up Crimson Countess to be way disturbing, esp the “She’s in there, yours for the taking.” line. Men making deals with each other and making buddy buddy through a literal woman’s life, augh.

Where Butcher is different is that he has Hughie with him, in contrast to Homelander and Soldier Boy who don’t have any real relationships in their lives. Hughie is having his own arc around masculine insecurities and grasping for power & strength, pushing away Annie in the process, but I think he’ll will keep his good heart in the end, and that Hughie & Butcher’s relationship will be important in pulling each other both back from the edge. And I don’t think MM or Annie will give up on Butcher or Hughie either, even though they’ll definitely both be pissed.

In terms of where MM’s plotline with Soldier Boy is going, given the show’s negative take on revenge and how MM is willing to draw moral lines, I wonder if they’re going to do doing something around MM saving his current family (the Boys, his literal family or both?) from Soldier Boy in the present, and that being a way for him to get catharsis and closure. Saving the people you have now as better than revenge for the people you’ve lost.

Kimiko/Frenchie is so sweet and cute and of course Frenchie got kidnapped right after they kissed and of course Kimiko can’t rush in to immediately save him because she doesn’t have her powers anymore. I don’t think Frenchie will bite it but he’s definitely going to get messed up. If Kimiko takes some temp V to regain her powers to rescue Frenchie from being tortured by Little Nina, that’d be a interesting counter parallel to Crimson Countess letting Soldier Boy get kidnapped / tortured because they never had any actual love between them. Plus, Kimiko with powers being weaponized by others versus Kimiko choosing to use her powers to go save her boyfriend. There’s also how Hughie has felt a little emasculated by Annie, her having strength that he doesn’t, contrasting how Frenchie was not at all threatened by Kimiko’s powers, and then the possibility of her using her strength to save him. It’d also further cement the ‘using powers for revenge vs. to save people’ theme that I think has been developing over this season.

(captions~) Sep 23rd: One day before Apple’s Birthday, Raymond’s Birthday Notice went up, so I ordered the cat a fancy black jacket with red and pink roses on it. The Pink Birthday gifts to Raymond continue!

Sep 24th: I remembered to attend Apple’s Birthday today, but Tucker was there being angry about Croissant missing his birthday party, augh! Oh well, I’m sure Apple will look great in the cardigan.

Also, since today’s Saturday, I tried to get K.K. Slider to play K.K. Birthday for her, but he wouldn’t :(

Sep 25th: The weather’s getting warmer for Croissant, but it’s getting colder over here, darn. I feel like Croissant would also be bad at tennis, like me. It’s hard (and rare) for me to get the satisfaction of a perfect serve. I always keep swooshing past the ball.

Sep 27th: It was New Outfit Tuesday and I wanted to do something with the new dirty tank! I tried to keep to a theme of old clothes, injuries, and hand-made items. I had the idea of using one of the eye injury patches, but I don’t have that in the closet, so I just left it out. It would probably bring too much white to the green+brown color theme.

Oct 1st: It was Raymond’s Pink Birthday is back! And Croissant wouldn’t dare wear his abandoned island cosplay to his boyfriend’s birthday, so he used his wand to look more dressed up for the occasion~

Said occasion is under the cut, of course!

pic 1: "Hmm, I should get him something new for his birthday..." Croissant said, thinking about the new v2.0 clothes. pic 2: "Yeah, this still has some pink in it, so it's perfect!" Croissant grinned. pic 3: "Yeah, you like it?" Croissant asked. "Like it? I LOVE it!" Apple gasped, squeezing the soft cardigan. pic 4: Me, immediately: “Oh yeah, he angy.“ pic 5: Meanwhile it's just starting to get cold herein the midwest, augh. pic 6: "I'm actually not very good at tennis, but if you feel like teaching me a bit I'll try," Croissant admitted. "Yeah, I can do that! Though my friends used to say I was a bad teacher..." Mira said. pic 7: Dirty Croissant! This is what would've happened to him if he hadn't broken up with his depressed boyfriend and moved in with his mother before he came to the island. pic 8: using a naturally-occurring leaf fits the outfit's vibe~ pic 9: "He found a /weight bench/ under his couch that he /benched/!?" Croissant gasped. pic 10: "There's /no way/ I'm gonna show up to Raymond's birthday party with those clothes!" Croissant said, quickly putting on an illusion to make him look better, though his hair stayed the same.

'Okay, good, he’s not wearing that to my birthday party,’ Raymond thought, relieved.

“Of course!” Croissant smiled, though he held back and didn’t actually throw it at his boyfriend’s feet.

”Oh, I don’t think the rose-print items look good on me. I bet the jacket will look great on you, though!” Croissant smiled. “Well, I can pull anything off!” Raymond beamed. (Raymond didn’t state the item’s name like usual. I wonder why?)

“Of course! I might be running out of pink clothes I can give you, though...” Croissant worried. “No way, I’m sure there’s a bunch more I’ll be great in!” Raymond replied.

Later that night:

“Yay, it’s finally finished!” Croissant grinned.

“Longtime Follower!? You bet I am!” Croissant laughed, pulling out his passport.

It’s been 2+ years, why not?

Croissant forgot to change his clothes, too excited to show Raymond his new passport title. “Aww, that’s so cute!” Raymond smiled, giving Croissant a kiss.

“You have to get married soon Y/N! You’re 27 and we have no heir for the Kamo clan!”

“Didn’t I leave the clan 10 years ago? There is no way I’m going to listen to someone like you nor my child is forced to become a jujutsu sorcerer, and what makes this more irritating is that you came all the way to my workplace to tell me this,” you snapped back at the man in front of you, before turning around trying to walk away from the situation. However, it seemed like the old man wasn’t going to give in to the situation or to the rejection of your answer, he was stubborn - just like you were, after all, that was the only thing you inherited from that man.

“Y/N! I am your father and I demand you to listen to me!”

“Shut up!” you shouted before turning to look over your shoulder. The man that stood there pride and arrogance running through his veins - something that you didn’t inherit, fortunately. There was no way you could call this man your father. The same ‘father’ that criticized you for not having the same blood manipulation like the rest of the family - well that’s what he gets for being with a woman from a different clan that had a different curse technique that you inherited - an outcast, that was what you were within the Kamo clan, yet they still demanded you to get married and have a child to keep the lineage going. There was no way in hell you were going to follow their rules.

“What a disgusting father you are, no wonder mother left you,” you commented with a smirk before continuing to walk away to go back to where you were heading. On the other hand, it seemed like someone else wanted to disturb your plans.

“Y/N~”

ꕥ

At this current moment in time, you were standing in front of one of the very few vending machines that were located within Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College wondering what you were going to choose since you were still undecided. Cold Water? Milk tea? Coffee? Maybe a carbonated fruit drink to satisfy your sweet tooth? You weren’t so sure.

“Have you put money in the machine yet honey~?” someone asked you from behind, causing you to quickly turn around to see a tall white-haired figure standing before you with a teasing smile painted upon his face.

“Satoru? Ah...no I haven’t” you muttered as you scratched your cheek with your finger, trying to occupy yourself with something to not look at him. “Let me pay for you then,” Gojo then offered as he reached over to the side, accidentally brushing his arm - causing you to tense up - before he placed some of his coins within the slot to add some currency into the machine before you could even deny his offer.

“I could pay for myself you know, and we’re alone, you don’t have to act,” you stated before sighing in defeat, as you turned back around to decide what you were going to choose once again. “I know,” Gojo commented back to you before gently placing his chin upon your shoulder, leading you to tense up once again from the physical contact before slowing relaxing, “but what type of boyfriend would be I if I didn’t treat you a little?”.

‘Well fake boyfriend Satoru’

ꕥ

“Your family pressuring you again?” Satoru cheerfully asked as he walked beside you, trying to lighten up the tense atmosphere from the conversation that you had with your ‘father’ just a few seconds ago.

“More like the Kamo clan than the L/N clan, get married this, get married that. Is that all I am good for? Marriage? Augh, I just need them to leave me alone, I left for a damn reason,” you ranted as you put your hands in your pockets, restraining yourself from punching something to let out some steam.

“How about I date you then?” Gojo suddenly asked, leading you to look at him with the most wide-eyed expression like he had just said something completely stupid - to which he did - but before you could even augre what he just stated, Gojo quickly began to explain what he meant by his little statement. “What I mean is let’s fake that we’re dating, we deceive everyone that we’re together and the Kamo clan will finally leave you alone once they realise that you are in a relationship with someone from the Gojo clan aka me, they can’t augre with that,”.

Still looking at your colleague with a dumbfounded expression, you turned your head to look in front of you before thinking about what he had just suggested. What Gojo stated to you was somewhat a clever idea. The Kamos family was obsessed with bloodlines and for you to be with Gojo means that they would foolishly believe they can become more powerful. Even though you didn’t physically inherit the blood manipulation curse technique, you still had in somewhere in your veins due to your father meaning they would believe they still have a chance for a powerful heir. However, that would mean you have to announce this to the clan as well as your mother’s clan - which wasn’t much of an issue for her side - it was just too much effort for a fake relationship.

“Satoru that is so much effort, you’re going to have to meet the Kamo clan then,” you commented, after realising the pros and cons of this little ordeal. “I know, but once we end this little fakery of a relationship, they don’t have to know, you don’t have to report your every move to them, remember you left,” Gojo explained back, leading to any worries that you had manifesting to instantly fade away with the wind.

Taking one last sigh, you turned back to him and nodded. “Fine, let’s fake date Satoru,” you finally declared before taking your hand out in front of him for a handshake, leading to the powerful shaman to take hold of your hand before firmly shaking it, “okay fake-girlfriend! Leave it to me,”

ꕥ

Sitting in front of your dad across a table was something you never wished on your worst enemy, you hated that you were back in the four walls that you had escaped from many years ago. However, for some odd reason, when Gojo was by your side, you felt completely safe.

“Since when did this little association between the both of you come to play?” your father asked in a suspicious tone as he eyed both you and Gojo - yet, knowing how greedy your father was for power, you could tell he was delighted at the fact you were ‘together’ with the most powerful jujutsu sorcerer.

“Ah~ We have been together since our last year at Jujutsu Tech,” Gojo explained as he turned to look at you with a cheeky smile on his face to which you smiled back at him, trying to keep up with the facade of being a fake couple. “And you didn’t inform me this Y/N?” your father then asked to which then you explained, “well, I did leave the clan a year after that, so I had the right to no inform you. After all, I’m not your daughter like you stated beforehand,”

Angered by your sudden statement, your father immediately slammed his hand on the desk as if the statement wasn’t true at all. “I demanded you to come back, I demanded you to respect the name of the Kamo Clan and this is how you taint it,” you father roared in fury, causing Gojo to put an arm out in front of you as if he was protecting you from anything that could happen to cause you to look at him in shock.

“Technically, Y/N didn’t even taint your name, she took their mother’s, so you’re in the wrong here, don’t do something that you will regret,” Gojo sinisterly threatened the man that was in front of both on you, before taking your hand in his as a way to comfort you - surprising you once again from his actions, yet for some reason, you gripped on his hand somewhat conveying him that you were thankful for him standing up for you.

ꕥ

“Ah Miss Y/N, did you come to see your mother?” a maid asked in a surprised tone, once she noticed that you came out of your designated room with you adjusting your red obi sash around your waist as your wore your family’s kimono, white was light in colour embroidered with the minimalist design of flowers and butterflies - giving you a somewhat soft feminine look, contrasting the portrayal of your character somewhat.

“You know you don’t have to put the ‘Miss’ in front of my name, and I do apologise for the sudden visit, I forgot to inform you all,” you told the maid with a gentle smile, leading to the maid to smile at you back before you then continued with, “Ah, I did come to meet my mother, but have you seen Satoru? Like a tall man with white hair, who is also wearing sunglasses,”. However, before the maid could answer your question.

“Y/N~”

Turning around, you found Gojo walking towards you with your mother by his side, causing you to freeze in shock as you didn’t expect him to go to your mother without you. “I thought we agreed to greet my mother together Satoru,” you commented as you pointed your index finger at him to emphasise your point, only for him to smile at you cheekily before scanning his eyes up and down at your new outfit. “You do look beautiful in your kimono though, is this what you wear when you come back home?” Gojo then asked, to which you nodded at his question - trying to ignore your pending blush being slowly painted in your cheeks - before you quickly greeted your mother, who was watching from the sideline.

“Good Afternoon mom, I apologise for coming to visit you so suddenly,” you said to her, to which your mother softly smiled at you before cupping your cheeks in her hands. “There is no need to apologise, I’m happy that you came back home since you are so busy back at the school, but also I’m happy that your boyfriend introduced himself to me, he is quite a different character must I say,” she commented with a light laugh, causing you to turn to him wondering what he had said to her, only for him to put up a peace sign as if that would answer your wondering thoughts. Although, before you could even vocalise your confusion, your mother linked her arms with yours before guiding you down the corridor to welcome you home.

“I can tell he really cares about you Y/N,” your mother stated, causing you to look at her with a perplexed expression to which she then smiled back at you before beckoning Gojo to follow the both of you to invite him for some sweets and tea that were being prepared.

‘If only you knew mom, if you only knew how much I care about him as well even though this isn’t real’

ꕥ

“You’ve been staring at the canned latte for some time, do you want that one?”

Suddenly, you instantly snapped out of your thoughts - not realising that you were in a daze - causing you to then immediately click on the button indicating on the mentioned drink. “Ah, sorry I was just wondering if I should go with the strong or light one,” you then answered, trying to hide the fact you were looking back on the moments that you had with Gojo.

“Are you okay?” Gojo then asked as he removed his chin from your shoulder, letting you crouch down to grab the coffee from the dispenser before collecting the coins from the other dispenser to give back to Gojo, only for him to shake his hand and say, “if you need another drink, you can use it,”

‘Is that why he put extra in?’

“Are you sure?” you quietly ask, only for the cheeky shaman to nod his head before he deciding to walk with you to wherever you were heading off too. “Like I said before, what type of boyfriend would I be if I didn’t spoil you a bit?” Gojo then asked once again, causing you to tilt your head in confusion.

“You know we’re not really dating right? We are a fake couple,” you mentioned, as you opened the can of coffee to take a sip after reminding him about the little plan that the both of you came up with to avoid the whole ‘marriage’ drama from the Kamo clan.

However, you didn’t hear an answer from your friend. Only pure silence surrounded the both of you, causing you to be perplexed on why you didn’t instantly hear a sassy comment back from the shaman, leading you to pause and turn your head to the side, only to see the man look at you dead in the eyes with his crystal blue ones.

‘Since when did he?’

“What if I don’t wanna be a fake boyfriend anymore?” Gojo questioned you with an uncharacteristic serious tone, causing you to look at him in bewilderment before quickly coming to the conclusion that he was probably teasing you.

“You mean you want to end this facade? If you want we can, there is kind of no point in continuing this little act,” you replied, as you took a sip of the caffeinated drink causing you to gain a little bit of energy in a short amount of time.

“Y/N, I’m being serious, I don’t want to be your fake-boyfriend anymore, I want this to be real,” Gojo then declared, causing you to suddenly choke on the liquid in shock before letting out a coughing fit as you tried to clear your throat leading to Gojo patting your back to help you out.

“Ha?” you then expressed, not sure on how to react to his declaration as you tried to look for any deception in his eyes. “Oh you are being serious Satoru,” you then commented to which then he nodded as if he didn’t already convince you that he hadn’t already.

Quickly looking away from the man, you were trying to hide the rose hues that slowly was coming upon your face. You thought you were the only one feeling this way. You thought you were alone on this. Ever since that moment when you and Gojo met your father, you always wanted to stay by his side, you felt like you were important, you felt safe, you felt warm.

It was like what your mother explained to you when you were young, ‘don’t make the same mistake as me Y/N, when you find someone you want to be with, make sure they make you feel safe and protect and not just the ‘butterflies in your stomach feeling’, I want you to feel loved and important, I’m so sorry for putting you through this’

“Y/N, come on say something, I’m not a nervous guy but this is something else you know,” Gojo pleaded as he wasn’t really enjoying the long silence that was going on around both you and him, only for you to suddenly grip his dark blue jacket before pulling him closer to press your face upon his chest as if you were still trying to hide but somewhat trying to express some confidence in what you were planning to do.

“Are you absolutely being serious ?” you then asked, once again asking how serious he was being.

“Absolutely serious,” Gojo then replied as he placed his large hand on the top of your head before caressing your hair, trying to comfort you from your embarrassment.

“Then I don’t wanna be your fake girlfriend anymore….please,” you then murmured as you gripped his jacket more tightly as you confessed your long time thoughts, only to suddenly feel a peck being placed on the crown of your head.

“Of course honey~ let’s become a real couple”

Truth

Title: Truth

Parring: Bucky x Reader

Word Count: 2147

Warning: Sassy reader, light mentions of sex, some language, fluff

Ratting: 18+ for good measure

Summary: You and your boyfriend have been secretly dating for several months. One day, you two are assigned to do inventory in the lab. However, things don’t go as plan when truth powder is discovered.

A/N: Thanks to @teamcap4bucky for letting me participate in her 1K Celebration writing challenge. Congratulations my friend! Please check out her blog. The prompts I had were you were moaning my name out in your sleep last night and he’s right behind me, isn’t he?

There were many reasons your boyfriend loved you. You were smart, caring, funny, hardworking, and sassy. However, you had been known to be very stubborn at times which sometimes got you both into trouble. Nevertheless, inventory in the lab had to be done and the only person he wanted to do it with was you.

“You know every time you get that gleam in your eye you get me in trouble,” you stated as you looked up from your desk. The man who you had been secretly dating now for four months was leaning against your doorway with that mischievous gleam in his eyes again. His arms crossed over his broad chest.

“I do no such thing. Besides the last time that we got into trouble was when you forget to lock your bedroom door and Steve almost walked in and caught us making out,” Bucky chuckled. You stood up from your desk and walked over to his with your hands on your hips.

“The only reason that happen was because you pinned me to the wall before I had a chance to do so,” you responded sassily. He gave another chuckle.

“While I would love to debate that point with you all day Doll we have inventory to do. Remember? So come on and help me and then maybe we can have a little fun.” He stated with a smile as he took your hand and pulled you out of your office only to drop in when he got into the hallway.

You decided that being drugged into the lab by Bucky wasn’t such a bad deal after all especially since he had been on a mission in Nepal for the last two weeks and this was the first time you two had been able to be alone. Let just say for the first hour of inventory all you two got accomplished was augh rediscovering each other in the supply closet. The second hour you were thanking the heavens that you had worn your black capris leggings and gray v neck short sleeve shirt to work that day for a whole other reason. The lab was hot and it wasn’t only because of the company. Machines buzzed to life all around you on the walls not to mention the countless computers and gadgets that Toney had been fidgeting with scarred all around on the countertops. You had just finished checking off the last several items on your list and had three boxes stacked in your hands that you were about to place on the top shelf when you heard his voice boom from within the supply closet.

“Y/N is there a large white bag on the floor close to you?”

“Yes. Why?”

“What does it say? I may need to lock it up in here.” You placed your boxes on the shelf and bent down to read the contents of the bag around.

“It says Sodium Pentothal on the outside of it.” You picked up the large heavyweight brown canvas bag in your arms. “Here I’ll bring it to yo…” Before you could even get the words out Bucky can running out of the storage room to get the heavy canvas bag that you had just placed into your hands. His large hands grab tightly around the bag as he tries to pull it from you.

“I got it. Let go Y/N.” He commanded in an authoritative tone.

“What gives Barnes doesn’t think I can handle this little bag,” you retorted with a huff as you gave him a gruff look. He gritted his teeth and pulled a little harder in the bag.

“That’s not it. You don’t have any idea what you are dealing with there. Let me have it okay.”

“A think I have a good idea. My boyfriend doesn’t think I can handle giving him a heavy bag.” Your muscles groan underneath the wait is the bag that you held in your arms now tighter. It was no way you were going to let him let him get the last word.

“It’s not about that,” Bucky deadpan looking at your straining face. “Just don’t want you hurt.” He tugged on the bag harder this time locking eyes on you.

“James come on really!” You sassed as you gave him a gruff stare.

You yanked the bag harder this time at the same time he decided to pull as hard as he could. Little did both of you know that a small rip at the bottom of the bag had already occurred on the seam. This tugging match you two were having did little for it and with one last pull, the bag ripped spilling its white powdery contents into the air with a poof! White power floated through the air covering all insight. Your hands, face, and outfit were covered with white power. You began to giggle as you looked at Bucky. He was no better than you. His brown hair and scuff were covered with the white powder making him almost look like a mini Santa. His maroon Henley that you loved was now speckled in white and his blue jeans looked more stonewashed than blue. You both couldn’t help but laugh as you looked at one another.

“Y/N look what you did!” Buck chuckled as he laughed at your sight.

“Me! Look what you did Barnes,” you giggled back at him as you pointed to him. “You look like an old man.” He gave you a large smile as he chuckled loudly.

“Old?” His blue eyes showed with a mischievous glare. “Is that why you were moaning my name out in your sleep last night Doll because I’m old or is it because you want me in your bed?”

“Barnes that never happen, however, I would be happy to take you up on that” you sassed back with a raised eyebrow as you rested your hands on your hips.

“You know I love it when you're sassy,” Bucky chuckled.

“And I lo-…” Your confession of love was on your lips however it was interpreted by Steve Rogers voice booming behind you two.

“What are you two doing!?” He loomed in the doorway crossing his large muscular arms over his chest. Natasha was right behind him and laughed at the sight of you two covered in the white truth-telling powder.

“He/She broke the bag.” You two said in unison said pointing at the other. “Hey stop that, Bucky deadpan.

“No. You. Stop. Let Go.” You gave another tug on the now empty bag finally pulling it out of your boyfriend's hands. You gave him a smug smile and then stuck your tongue out at him. He stood looking at you and crossed his arms.

“Real mature, Y/N. I can show you some places you can put that tongue of your. . .”

“Buck!” Steve yelled before he could finish that statement. Steve gritted his teeth. “You two. Separate. Now.” Before you knew it, Natasha had grabbed your arm and pulled you out of the lab door to clean up. After hitting the showers, you decided that since she had been harping on you to train more you would hit the gym.

(In Another Location...)

“Ok, I got all pretty up for you. Can I go now?” Bucky asked as he finished getting dressed from a shower. His gray sweet paints and black teeshirt hugged his body perfectly. He laced his shoes as Steve leaned against the door with his arms still crossed.

“Not a chance. You know what that stuff was; truth serum. It is no way I am leaving you along right now.” Steve picked up the powered covered clothing and towel and deposited into a hamper.

“Not goin’ to be along. Going to find Y/N,” Buck stated flatly.

“Why?”

“Been going out with her for the last three months and want to see my girl. That’s why. Besides, how else can I be along with her when you are always around. Do you realize how hard that is?”

“Wait. You and Y/N are a thing?” Steve just shook his head in awe. Bucky and you had hidden it so well that no one knew. Yes, maybe expected something but not knew; at least not until now.

“I’m going to train. So if you want to babysit me than you better come on Rogers,” Bucky stated walking out of his room with Steve right on his heels.

The gym door swung open as you marched into it with determination. You wanted to train. Heck, you even had his favorite black and white exercise leggins and black sports tank. There was no way anyone was going to stop you

“I don’t think the gym is a good ideal right now Y/N." Natasha was following Ema right on your heels.

"Why? You always say that I need the extra practice.” You said exasperated with your hands on your hips.

“Yes but that when you and Barns haven’t been exposed to a truth serum powder.”

“ So now you are my babysitter,” you said flatly.

“Yes, for right now,” Natasha’s voice was almost in amusement. You stood facing Natasha who was now in front of her just shaking her head as she crossed her arms trying to head you off.

“Do you know how frustrating that man is?" You waved her hands for emphasis. "We were in a closet for a little bit with him pulling me closer to him while he was flirting with me,” you noted as you pointed to yourself. Natasha looked at you in amusement with a slight smile creeping upon her face. “I mean do you know how HOT he is? Bucky teased me, saying I had a sassy mouth. It took everything I had not to tell him that the only way to shut me up was him to use a much better pick up line or put his tongue in my mouth. I really wanted him to do the second. I mean he is HOT.” Natasha now was rolling with laughter so hard that tears were beginning to form in her eyes.

“ Y/N you-you really don’t know when to shut up do you?” She said between giggles.

“No not really why?” Nat shook her head to the right than to the left. You glanced to her right seeing Steve beside you. He shook his head in amazement trying not to laugh. “Oh crap! You know,” you continued looking up now at Steve now “I can’t figure him out sometimes."

"That makes two of us right now.” He said with a slight laugh.

“I can’t tell if he just wants to kill me,” talking with your hands again now placing a figure closer to your lips biting on it some, “or take me to bed.” Steve put his hands over his forehead and over his eyes now almost in tears trying not to burst into laughter his face getting more red every moment. “Wait!” you said realization hit you, “if you are here and that means he’s right behind me isn’t he?” You asked as you jerked your head several times to the left emphasizing your point.

“Yep,” Steve answered you with a grin. You immediately blushed and looked straight ahead to Natasha who was now laughing her head off again.

“You are no help Nat!"

"No, not really but that is all on you girl." You turned facing Bucky now who was standing behind you looking very cocky with his arms folded.

"You heard everything didn’t you?”

“ Yes,” he said smugly as he moved closer to you placing his left arm around your waist while his flesh hand tucked a piece of it behind her ear. His hungry blue eyes darkening. “And I plan on taking you up on the last part doll. You know you're sexy as hell. I will be very pleased to shut you up probably leaving all kinds of marks on you so everyone will be able to tell that you are mine. Would you like that doll?” His voice dripped with lust.

“Yes, sergeant,” you said innocently.

“Do something, Steve. "Natasha commanded.

"What do you want me to do?” Steve looked at the both of you and then back to Natasha.

“ Stop them.”

“ Ok, Buck let her go and come on.”

"Get your own girl she’s mine.“ He huffed tightening his grip on you.

” See that’s what I’m dealing with,“ Steve said in frustration.

"Come on doll lets go now.” His smile was intoxicating

“Where?”

“Back to my room.” Bucky took your hand in his and led you out of the gym without father argument.

"Steve!“ Natasha called out again.

"Just chill Tasha they been together for a while now anyway..”

“ What?” Her green eyes lighting up in shock. He let out a frustrated huff.

“Yes, they were just keeping it quiet.”

"Guess that’s out now.“

Could It Be Chapter 5

Summary: When a new guy transfers to Fairy Tail High, he spends a lot of time with Lucy. This upsets Natsu but he doesn’t know why. Could he have fallen for his best friend?

Rated: T for language, drama, and fluff. LOTS OF FLUFF.

Pairings: Nalu, Slight Gajevy, Gruvia, Jerza, a mention of Elfgreen, and other pairings I just made up.

High School AU

It's finally winding down.

Info:

The first part of the chapter, and the part right after the flashback is a call back to the Prologue.

Metallicana makes a cameo. Yes, I made him and Igneel brothers.

Yes, Gajeel and Levy are officially boyfriend and girlfriend in this. I will write a sequel with them as the main focus after this is done.

I'm a causal gamer, but I know how popular the Mario Kart series is. I think the characters that Natsu and Gajeel picked are perfect.

And I know how much everyone hates the blue shell, but admit when you have it you can't resist using it even when you know your friends will hate you for it.

The part where Gajeel explains what being in love is like is actually scientifically proven. I got my info from http://www.womenshealthmag.com/sex-and-love/effects-of-love

My favorite part of this chapter was definitely the conversation between Natsu and Happy. I MADE HAPPY ACT TOO CUTE! GOD I LOVE CATS!

Writer Dude is that one guy that Lucy went out with on a date only to stood him up so she can go on a mission with Natsu and Happy. I just switch it around.

And yeah Hibiki was just a random choice, I don't really support him with Lucy.

And this why I think Natsu and Wendy would make great siblings in another universe.

Yes, I like Romeo and Wendy, so cute!

Why is Lucy crying? You have to wait till the next chapter to find out, which will be the last one.

God I never thought I be the type of author to leave on a cliffhanger.

Anyways hope you guys enjoy reading.

~Natsu’s POV~ I couldn't believe that Lucy was still hanging out with that jerk, Eric! I mean it’s like she doesn’t care about me at all, as if I don’t even exist! You know what they say, “out of sight, out of mind.” I’m so angry and I hate Eric! He took my Lucy away from me! Wait a minute. MY Lucy? Since when was she “my Lucy”? Though every time I think about her now my heart races. I can’t sleep and my stomach gets queasy. This is too weird. I must be going crazy. Hold on! I think this happened to Gajeel. Yeah, right when he started going out with Levy. Flashback ~Normal POV~ About two nights ago, Natsu’s father’s brother came over for dinner. Metallicana was Igneel’s older brother and even though he would tease his little brother, they were still very close. Of course this meant he brought his son along with him who just happened to be Natsu’s classmate, Gajeel. The family was just sitting down for dinner when Grandeeney came in with the roast chicken she just finished making. Everything was going fine until Gajeel’s father had this to say. “So my son has a new girlfriend.” Gajeel almost choked on his chicken. “POP!” he shouted. Grandeeney clasped her hands together and said, “Oh how wonderful! Who is she?” “It’s Levy McGarden.” Natsu chimed in. Gajeel glared at him. “How the hell do you know that?!” he demanded. “Oh please. Everyone knows. And I heard it from Lucy. I guess Levy must have told her. I mean they are best friends.” Gajeel slumped back into his chair. An awkward silence followed until Natsu’s father broke it. “Well, let’s not let this delicious food go to waste.” Igneel said. “Dig in everyone!” After dinner the three adults went out onto the deck to have some drinks, Wendy went to go play with the three cats, Happy, Carla, and Pantherlily, while Gajeel and Natsu headed up to his room to play some video games. They were in their fifth round of Mario Kart 8. Natsu was Mario and Gajeel was Wario. “You’re going down, Metalhead!” Natsu shouted as he overlapped Gajeel. “Yeah, right, Flamebrain!” as he threw a blue shell at Natsu. “Dammit!” he yelled. “I hate that stupid blue shell! Why the hell would you do that?!” “Because I can.” Gajeel smirked. “Augh!” Natsu groaned in frustration. After Natsu lost for the 5th time, he and Gajeel started playing War. As Natsu started dealing out the cards, he asked Gajeel this. “So what’s it like having a girlfriend?” Gajeel glared at him. “Why do you want to know?” “I’m just curious, that’s all. I mean you seem like the person least likely to ever get a girlfriend.” “Gee, thanks.” Gajeel said sarcastically. “Come on! Please?” Natsu stared pouting. “All right! All right!” Gajeel finally gave in. “Just stop looking at me like that!” Natsu nodded. “Well it’s like this. You get flustered all the time when you’re around them. Your heart beats faster, and your hands get all clammy. You think about them all the time. Basically your thoughts always lead back to them somehow. You think they are the greatest thing since sliced bread. You can’t sleep, eat, and your stomach aches all the time. You forget things easily and if you 'see' them with someone else, you want to punch the guy in the face.” “Well that sounds awful.” “It does, but once you find that one person who you truly care about, it’s all worth it. That girl, whether you realize it or not, changes you for the better. You want to do everything for them. You want to be the one there for her, to protect her, and most of all love her.” Natsu nodded like he understood. “And I swear if you tell anyone I said all this mushy stuff, I’ll beat the crap out of you!” Gajeel threatened. Natsu nervously said he wouldn't. End of Flashback ~Natsu’s POV~ That’s it! It’s the only logical explanation! Aw, man! How could I've had this happen?! This is the one rule you’re never supposed to break in a friendship. Everyone knows that! I mean is it my fault that Lucy is the smartest, most fun, and… p-prettiest girl I've ever met? There’s no use denying it any longer. I've fallen in love with Lucy. ~Normal POV~ The day of the dance had finally arrived! The gym was decorated, and everyone was at home getting ready. Including Natsu, who still had some things to work out over his new found feelings for Lucy. Natsu was dressed in a white dress shirt, black vest, and black pants. Right now he was trying to put on his tie. All the while he was talking to Happy about Lucy. “I don’t know, Happy. It’s not like Lucy hasn't dated other guys before.” Happy meowed in agreement. “I mean hey. I’m the one she called when that writer dude didn’t show up for her date. I had my mom take us to go get ice cream so she'd feel better!” Happy tilted his head. “And that whole Hibiki Lates thing? I was never in favor of that, but I was there for Lucy.” Happy started rolling on Natsu’s bed. “You know, buddy. Sometimes I wish you could talk. I mean, here I am opening myself up to you and you’re not interested at all.” Happy got down on the floor and rubbed up against his owner’s legs, purring. “Oh, sure - now you want to be my friend.” Happy meowed again. “Something’s different now. There’s something between us. Who am I kidding? That’s not different. Something’s been there a long time. Well, I think there’s something there. Does she?” Happy climbed to Natsu’s neck and started nuzzling his head. Natsu couldn't help but smile at his feline companion. “Thanks for listening, little buddy.” Natsu said as he scratched Happy on the head and put him back on the bed. “Okay I think I’m ready. Not just for the dance either, but to do what no man should ever have to do... talk about his feelings.” Happy tilted his head again. “I know, it’s humiliating, but Lucy’s worth it.” Happy meowed in agreement, again. “What if she really, really likes this Eric guy?” Natsu started pacing back and forth. “Then I show up yapping about my feelings, and she wants Eric, not me, and we’re talking total flame-out!” he yelled. Happy backed up on to Natsu’s bed, slightly afraid. Natsu face palmed suddenly remembering, “Oh, man! Not to mention what it would do to our friendship. Forget it! I’m not going!” Natsu then ripped off his tie and buried his face into his pillow. Happy went to comfort his owner. About an hour later Natsu heard a knock on his door. “Ugh.” Natsu groaned. “Who is it?” “Natsu, it’s Wendy. May I please come in?” “Sure, I guess.” Wendy opened the door and she came into Natsu’s room. She was wearing a light blue dress and had her hair up in a ponytail with a white flower in her hair. “Well, you look nice,” Natsu said to his little sister. “Thank you. I just wish there was a place where I could wear this, like maybe a school dance?” Natsu looked at her, “I know what you’re trying to do and it won’t work. I’m not going to the Spring Formal.” “It is because you’re in love with Lucy-san?” Natsu became flabbergasted, “B-buh, uh… where did you get that idea?” “Because I’m your sister and I know you.” Wendy said smiling. “Whatever, it’s not going to work. I’m not going.” “Why not?” Wendy protested. “What am I supposed to do?” Natsu complained. “Tell my best friend, ‘Hey! I’m in love with you’? I can’t do it! It would ruin our friendship!” Natsu buried his head into his pillow. Wendy walked over to her brother, bent down, and put her hand on his head. “Natsu, as your sister, I’m telling you to go to the dance.” “Why?” Natsu asked, his voice all muffled. “Because I hate seeing you so miserable. I want you to be happy. And besides if you really love Lucy, wouldn't you do anything to be with her?” Natsu stopped to think for a moment. Finally he said, “You’re right.” Natsu got up walked over to his sister and patted her on the head. “Thanks, Wend.” You’re welcome. Now let’s go!” Wendy said as she pulled him out the door. About 10 minutes later, Natsu and Wendy arrived at the dance. When they got inside the gym was beautifully decorated, everyone was dancing, and Mira was singing her heart out with the band on stage. “Wow! It looks like everyone’s having a good time,” Wendy said gleefully. “Yeah, I guess you’re right.” Natsu agreed. Suddenly someone came up to them. “Hi, Natsu-nii, hi Wendy-chan.” “Hi, Romeo-kun.” “Hey little man.” Romeo Conbolt, who happened to be one of Wendy's classmates, was 13 years old. They were very close friends and Wendy secretly had a crush on the boy. And little did she know that Romeo liked her as well. Which was why she was shocked when he asked, “Wendy, will you dance with me?” Wendy was surprised. “Really?” “Yeah, it’ll be fun,” his hand out for her. Wendy looked over to Natsu and he gave a nod of approval. “Go on kiddo, have fun.” “Are you sure you’ll be okay?” “Yeah, I’ll be fine,” he replied. “Okay,” and she turned back to Romeo. “Yes, I'd love to dance with you.” “Awesome!” And with that said, the two went off. Natsu watched them for a little bit with a smile on his face. He wasn't quite ready to confess his feelings for Lucy just yet. So, he stepped out into the hallway when all of a sudden, he heard someone crying. He walked down the hallway and rounded the corner where the crying was louder. When he got there he saw Lucy, sitting on the floor, in tears. Natsu was shocked. And all he could say was, “Luce? What’s wrong?”
