So here is my third idea…a bit longer and darker but I hope you like it
So it starts right where part 2 ended…Evan and his new love interest are enjoying their food and flirting a little….Evan asks what brought reader over and asks semi seriously if he is that irresistible and gets a slight laugh in response
Evan then decides to play his answer machine and gets the same messages from the film as he admires his watch…reader is playing with the heating …..turning it and asks if he should be jealous Evan points out if he haven’t called them back no…
Reader comments how it’s getting really hot in here and maybe they need to cool off so they decide to head to the shower more flirting as they start to make out in the shower
Then they notice the temperature of the water starting to grow warmer and scalding …..they turning it off but it won’t work and the door is jammed…they start panicking/blaming each other as they desperately try to get out
Evan eventually smashes his way out by just shouldering the glass till it breaks ….later they are in Evans bedroom putting ice packs on each other as they apologise for turning on each other and they kiss with Evan asking what is happening Reader settles down with him on the bed and says he doesn’t know but he will find out
obvouvou;u they are going to stick together
what do you think ?
you've always got really creative ideas -- this fic would've been a one-shot without you lol -- let's see if you like the next installment! here we go--!
part 3 of evan lewis x male reader escaping death -- lovingly entitled 'luck of the draw' on ao3 --
cw: near-death experience, anxiety, making out, groping.
evan joined you at the little dining table, taking a seat and passing your food to you once it was all cooked. the entire little apartment smelled like rich, savory noodles; it was nice. this was the most at ease you'd felt since you'd met evan. that fact made you feel a little guilty. it wasn't as if you thought it was evan's fault, and you sure weren't gonna stop hanging out with him just over some silly superstitions you were having. you'd never been one to really believe in such things; but you couldn't deny the extreme relief you felt when you'd prevented whatever had been destined to happen. it gave you almost a sense of responsibility to stay and help him, to keep him safe from whatever power-that-be was hell-bent on hurting him. why evan, you found yourself thinking, of all people? and why you, sent to be his savior?
"so, uh…what brought you back here?" evan asked, after swallowing a bite of his food. he looked at you with an eyebrow raised. just as you were about to answer him and let him know about the strange feeling you'd been having, he smirked at you and continued speaking. "am i that irresistible?"
you laughed, rolling your eyes at his goofy expression. you decided to maybe bring up your weird feeling later. or maybe, not at all? after all you didn't even know if it was founded; maybe you were just having a weird week. maybe you needed to go back to that therapist you'd been seeing a while back.
"oh-- i forgot," evan said, reaching over and pressing a button on his answering machine. some messages from girls started to play, making you feel a little embarrassed. mainly for them; they sounded pretty desperate to get their hands on some of that money evan had just won from the lottery. you watched evan admire the watch he'd gotten the day before; fiddling with the latch as you stood up and cleared your throat awkwardly. you decided to busy yourself by absently messing with the thermostat, unable to find the remote to his tv and feeling that messing with your phone might've come off as rude.
"should i be jealous?" you asked evan, playfully, but also eyeing him a bit warily. he was a cocky guy, and the two of you hadn't said anything about being mutually exclusive just yet-- or ever, in that case. and he was entitled to do whatever he wanted, whether it be calling these women back or not.
"well, i mean, i haven't called them back yet, have i?" he pointed out. he finally looked up from his shiny new watch and looked over at you, reaching over to start deleting the messages. you grinned to yourself, turning the heat down a tad more. it had started getting a little hotter in the small apartment; it was freaking you out a bit. the thermostat said a cool 65 degrees fahrenheit once you were done messing with it. it shouldn't have felt so hot in there, right?
maybe you'd worked yourself up over evan's other potential lovers. you weren't really the jealous type; not outwardly, of course.
"hey, you wanna hop in the shower really quick?" you asked, crossing over to the dining table again. you put your arms around evan's shoulders from behind, leaning in and nibbling playfully on his ear. "it's getting kinda hot in here, don't you think? maybe we should cool off…" you said. you didn't boast about your flirting skills, that was for sure, but you thought you were charming enough. and evan evidently did too. he rolled his eyes, but there was definitely a grin on his face.
"you didn't even finish your food," he teased, though it didn't seem like he was all too concerned, after you'd just insinuated that he'd be getting lucky again. he stood from his chair and led you into the bathroom, the two of you flirtingly undressing each other on the way. there was a trail of clothes on the way to the bathroom, ending with the two of you standing by the shower. "i'm never gonna get tired of seeing that…" evan said playfully, eyeing your naked form beside him. he wrapped his arms around you, groping your ass and pulling you in for a kiss. you could feel yourself blush at the comment -- did that mean he wanted to keep seeing you? that maybe you'd be spending more time with him? you'd only known him for about a day, but he fascinated you, and you liked his goofy cockiness; it was surprisingly charming.
he turned around and started the water, leaning down and giving you access to return his groping. you grabbed his ass; it was really nice, you couldn't really tell that based on the clothes he wore, which made it all the better that you'd gotten to see it. and touch it, of course. he moaned as you massaged his ass and lower back. the water spritzed on, warm and steamy, inviting the two of you inside. the shower itself was a sort of glass box, with a door that swung open and clasped shut on the inside. it was the perfect size for the two of you to be intimately close in it together. the two of you clambered in, laughing as you bumped into each other while trying to get into comfortable positions. you ended up facing each other, a moment of thought before you both leaned in for a kiss.
the kiss deepened as the two of you started groping each other, becoming a full-on make-out session full of moaning and groaning. you broke away to bite on evan's neck, making him gasp out in surprise as you teeth scraped the delicate flesh just above his shoulder. "shit, wait, let me fix the temp real quick," evan grunted, pulling away from you, suddenly a bit agitated. you had to admit, the water was starting to get a little hot. he turned more cold on, but that didn't help. the water started getting hotter.
"are you turning the right knob?" you asked, hissing through your teeth as you felt the water start to sting the skin on your forearm. your arm was turning a bright, angry red as the water started to scald you.
"yes, i'm turning the right knob!" evan snipped at you, making you frown frustratedly at him. "i know which knob is cold, it's my apartment," he grumbled, turning both knobs now. it was clear he had been turning the right one; the water was just getting hotter by itself.
"maybe try turning it off?" you suggested, trying to scoot back away from the stream of boiling water. it had to be approaching something like 150 degrees at this point. you couldn't think straight, it was so hot. you were starting to panic, and you knew evan was too, but yours was starting to get intense. had you not avoided the thing that was supposed to hurt evan? and had you lumped yourself in with him? were the two of you going to die from third degree burns in this shower, trapped in the boiling water and choking on steam?
"i am trying to turn it off, man! i'm not stupid. why don't you try, if you're so smart?" evan snapped, shoving past you to trade you spots. now he was up against the glass wall of the shower, and he started to jiggle the clasp, trying to undo it. it was stuck. the two of you really were stuck, and if you didn't find a way out soon, it wasn't going to be pretty. "damn it, this is all your fault, you were the one who suggested getting in here in the first place… i bet you broke the stupid latch…"
"hey, don't get pissed off at me," you grouched back at him, angry that he was blaming you for something that clearly wasn't your fault. there were sinister things at play, here, working against you and evan and trying to harm you both now. "maybe if your apartment wasn't so hot, i wouldn't have wanted to get in here." you grumbled as the two of you worked on your tasks separately, faced away from each other. the heat of the water climbed in intensity so rapidly it was making you lightheaded. it had been all of three or four minutes that you'd been in there, and in just that time, the two of you had gotten agitated enough to blame each other for something that you at least knew wasn't anyone's fault. at this point it was clearly some sort of evil thing at play, here. you fiddled with the knobs desperately, evan messing with the latch, when in one quick second you heard a smashing sound behind you.
evan had busted through the foggy glass pane of the shower, shouldering it with all of his weight and smashing through it. cool air rushed in, already soothing your skin as you rushed out to him, stepping around glass and crouching down to where he lay on the floor amidst a bed of glass shards. the water sprayed on behind you, harmlessly flowing down the drain. steam curled up around you in the bathroom as you consoled evan, brushing glass off of him and pulling him up to his feet.
all animosity drained from the two of you as you looked into each other's eyes, safe from the boiling heat of the shower. "are you alright?" you asked him, gathering him in your arms and holding him close as the two of you mentally recovered from the ordeal you'd just been through.
"sorry i was being such an ass," evan said to you, softly, as you passed an ice pack and frozen peas back and forth to each other. he'd given you a spare pair of pajama pants and was wearing a pair himself as the two of you sat on his bed together. your head was swimming with all the things that had happened the past day; you barely heard him.
"it's okay. i was being an ass too -- it wasn't anybody's fault," you assured him, leaning in and kissing him on the lips. it was a gentle kiss, meant to be comforting. it seemed to have worked at least a little bit, but he was still a little worked up.
"maybe not, but.. what the hell was it, then? that shit doesn't just happen."
you sighed softly, biting on your lip. you knew that you'd been right all along, that the crazy-anxious feeling you'd been having was founded in some kind of truth. this wouldn't be the last time something like this happened. the pit in your stomach had started to return, and you had a feeling that it would be there for a while. you figured you better get used to saving evan's life, and he'd better get used to saving yours. you didn't know what the feeling meant exactly, other than the two of you would be being chased by death for a good while going forward. "i don't really know," you said, pausing. you thought about just brushing it off, keeping him in the dark for just a moment longer, letting him have that ignorant bliss. but it felt irresponsible. "but it feels… cosmic," you muttered, just in case he thought you were being crazy. but when you looked up at him, he was nodding slowly and thoughtfully. "and we'll figure it out. i'll get to the bottom of this, and we'll stop it," you promised, reaching over to hold his hand in your lap.
24-hour relationship or not, evan wasn't going to die, and neither were you. you were going to see to that.

“Mmmph….”
Three days earlier.
After a series of life altering events, you’d finally thrown your hands up and run away from home. The destination? Miss Robichaux’s School for Gifted Young Women, located in the mysterious city of New Orleans. As you rode the bus, one backpack stuffed with clothes and jewellery clutched tightly to your chest like a child, vibrant images of vampires, witches and voodoo danced in your dreams.
You saw yourself as a plain Jane who had been a little too influenced by the occult at a young age. A typical girl who had grown up on Stevie Nicks and tarot cards, you had never considered yourself particularly remarkable, though you’d always had a knack for making things happen a little too easily. Teachers and parents had always described you as an influential young woman — a deceptive umbrella term that hardly scratched the surface. You weren’t writing persuasive essays or excelling in Speech and Debate, you were sticking your fingers into someone’s mind like playdoh and rewiring it to do exactly what you wanted.
It was that deceptive umbrella term that brought you to Louisiana to begin with; you’d felt unheard, unseen, and misunderstood. You were struggling and nobody had the capacity to unravel your problems.
Cordelia, who was easily one of the most beautiful women you’d ever seen, welcomed you into her office. The interview was brief but compassionate. She’d asked you to explain what brought you to her home, what you felt your “powers” were, and reached to touch the top of your hand when you struggled with that word. She lingered, staring deeply at your fingers. After a moment, she inhaled and spoke again.
“Nothing is silly here. You’re safe. Everything you’ve thought was make-believe or… or childish isn’t. The world runs on magic.”
Cordelia had called one of the other girls into her office and given you an encouraging nod. The girl, who couldn’t have been more than sixteen, had jet black hair, and large glasses. She looked deeply frightened and you almost felt bad when you made her crawl on the floor like a crab before standing up and clapping excitedly. It took very little effort for you, Cordelia noted and wrote something on a piece of paper in your file.
Whatever you’d done, you’d done it correctly. Shortly after that, a girl named Zoe showed you to your new room. She was sweet, kind — the sort of woman that you thought would listen to every side of every story before making any judgements. She used to be a student witch here, she explained as you two walked, but she'd risen in the ranks and become so busy with being the Council — something very important, a hierarchy of witches — that she didn’t have time for the things she used to focus on.  
Zoe opened the tall door, letting you step in first. Well-lit by the large and ornately trimmed windows, the room was white, matching the scheme of the rest of the mansion. Sparsely decorated, there were the necessities in terms of furniture and nothing else. There were two beds at opposite sides of the room… and a blonde boy sat cross-legged on the one closest to the door. His expression was blank, but his brows were laced together, conveying some sort of unknown sadness.
“This is Kyle. He…” she trailed off, her voice sounding unsteady. “He died. Madison and I, we… we put him back together and brought him back.”
You snapped your head to face her, jaw hanging slack in disbelief. “Put him back together? Like Frankenstein?”
Zoe nodded, and reached out to stroke his fluffy blonde curls. While he remained stoic, you noticed the tiniest flinch in his cheek muscles. The way she looked at him… you crossed your arms over your chest uncomfortably. There was history here. “He’s not the same. He tries though.”
She straightened out her frown, visibly trying to move on from the memories.
“This used to be my room. But…” She dropped her hand to her side. He flinched more visibly. “It’s yours now.”
Zoe had told you that all Kyle needed was macaroni, kid’s shows on YouTube, and he wouldn’t bother you. For the first night, you conceded with those recommendations because his outbursts overwhelmed you.
On the second night, you woke up to the sound of rustling. Kyle sat upright in his bed, sheets draped over his lap, staring towards the window. You sat up in bed, pulling the sheets up to your chest. He turned to look at you and shrunk away from your gaze, ashamed. He quickly returned to a lying position, like a child who had gotten yelled at. The apprehension you possessed on the first night had morphed into wonderment. A reanimated boy, who despite being pieced together still had some semblance of sentience and emotion. It may have been cliche to analyze it through a Shelley-esque eye… but with sentience, came love. And with love, agony was sure to follow. You’d always been particularly enraptured with the idea of a monster needing love, trying desperately to understand it.
A line from Frankenstein came to mind as you watched him staring straight up at the ceiling, hoping you wouldn’t notice he wasn’t asleep. “I have a love in me the likes of which can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.”
So… what if you satisfied the first? Perhaps all he needed was some tenderness, some attentiveness.  
“Kyle?”
No response. You swung your legs out from underneath the covers, planting your bare feet on the wooden floors. In only your nightgown, the chill of the air bit at your exposed limbs, prompting you to slip your arms into the lacy, green sleeves of your robe.
“Kyle? You wanna look at the moon?”
This time, he turned his head on the pillow to look at you. You began moving carefully towards him.
“You want to? The moon?” You asked again, making a circle shape with your hands and then unrolling them to point towards the window. He nodded, showing understanding. Clumsily, he threw the covers off him and got to his feet.
You took one step. He followed, ambling heavily behind you until you both stood close enough to the window to feel the chill that permeated the glass. He sighed heavily, the sound resonating in his broad chest. It was the first time you’d heard any sort of happy sound from him. His knuckles brushed against yours, but despite the quivering in your abdomen, you didn’t reach out to hold his hand. You wanted to, though. Very, very much.
On the third night, you woke up to the sounds.
“Mmmmmph! Mmm…arrr…. Mmmm…. ow.”
You rubbed your eyes, rousing yourself. Instead of being in his own bed, like he usually was, Kyle sat at the foot of yours, his legs pulled to his chest. “What? What’s wrong?”
He grunted again, scooting closer to you on the bed. Although the room was dark, the small night light in the corner illuminated just enough of his face to show the pained expression, the stress in his dark eyes.
“Kyle? What’s the matter? Try…” You whispered. “Are you hurt?”
He nodded. Then shook his head. “Hmmmph… I’m……”
“You’re what? What is it?”
He struggled to speak, but what did come out sounded distinctly like your own name.
Kyle’s head dropped heavily to his chest, shamefully looking down at his erection as it tented his boxers. He lifted his eyes, staring at you from underneath his heavy brow and fluffy locks. Both hands clenched into fists, he pressed down into his groin, moaning.
Oh…. Oh fuck, you thought. Oh my fucking god, he’s got a boner.
“It’s okay,” you reassured. “That’s nothing to be ashamed of… it’s normal. O-kay.”
Poor thing. He doesn’t know what to do…. He’s asking for help. He looked into your eyes with the most soulful, desperate pleading you’d ever seen. No man, even more together than him, had ever asked you for help like this. There was something underneath, another stain on his heart. You could feel it when your eyes locked for a second too long — but that wasn’t important. It didn’t change what you were about to do.
You fingered the ruched elastic of his boxers, scooping it towards you. The taut skin of his stomach was warm, and the heat increased as you neared the bush of hair. Kyle groaned and cloddishly bucked his hips to force your hand farther down. The searing hot tip slipped against the back of your hand, leaving a streak of precum on your skin.
“P……l…eaaasse…..” His chest was heaving up and down, forcing excited little breaths out of his open mouth.
You swallowed the lump in your throat and gripped his cock gently. It twitched against your hand and you felt another hot, viscid ribbon coat your knuckles. Oh fuck. He jerked his hips again as you began stroking, smearing his wetness along the shaft. He slackened the muscles in his neck, letting his head fall onto your shoulder.
“Good? Does that feel better?”
His head moved on you, up and down, so you assumed it did. You decided to test it by going a little faster, and squeezing his cock a little harder. Instead of the guttural, almost pained groans  he’d given you before, the most pathetic little whimper left his throat. You lifted your gaze to the ceiling, rolling your eyes back. He was putty in your grip, begging for you with every muscle in his body. And that… drove you insane.
Carefully, quietly… you reached to your legs, gathering the edge of your nightgown into your palm, pulling it up your thigh until you had enough room to reach your own arousal. Wasting no time, you circled your clit slowly, slipping a finger inside between rotations.
“AAAAAGUHHH!”
You clapped your hand over Kyle’s mouth, eyes widening like saucers in the dark. You whispered louder than you ever had in your entire life. “Shhh! Kyle! Shhh!” He breathed hard out his nose. “I can’t help you if you’re loud… they’ll hear you.”
Underneath your fingers, Kyle’s plush lips parted just enough for you to notice. You froze. He looked down as far as his ocular anatomy allowed and his pupils dilated, the blackness consuming the already deep brown. His tongue swept across the underside of your fingers before forcing itself between them. He gripped your hand tightly at the wrist and yanked it down in a startling display of his inhuman strength.
“Wuh…. Want.”
You jerked your head back, confused. “What?”
He brought your hand back up, and like a child claiming that a toy was his, Kyle licked your pointer and index finger from the base to the tip of them. He swallowed.
“Waant….”
Holy shit. You realised. You realised what it was he wanted…. The hand you’d used to cover his mouth was that hand that you’d previously been fingering yourself with, the fingers that were coated in your own wetness. He wanted… that.
Nervously, you pulled your hand from his boxers, the elastic snapping against his tummy. You nodded once and inhaled a deep breath through your nose, a feeble attempt at pacifying the bundle of live wires you called your nerves. Kyle’s eyes never left yours, watching you intently as you planted your hands on either side of your body as leverage to push yourself back towards the head of the bed. You laid back on the pillow, knees touching and obscuring Kyle.
When you opened them, your breath rushed out from your lungs. He was so pretty, the way the moonlight illuminated his curls like an angel’s halo, outlining his broad form. His plaid shirt hung open, teasing at the body beneath. And then, of course, there was the erection. The fabric of his boxers were pulled tight.
You tilted your head down, pressing your chin against your chest. Your eyes were misty, doe-like, and you almost stuck your fingers in his mind to tell him to come to you. But he did it on his own accord and your heart gave an adoring flutter. Coming forward onto his hands, Kyle crawled on the bed to you, and you welcomed him in between your thighs. He lowered himself down onto his stomach.
“Good boy,” you whispered. “You’re so good, Kyle…”
Kyle opened his mouth on your pussy, lapping at it hungrily. The smoothness of his teeth grazed your clit, and the heat of your arousal was unimaginable, burning deep within your core. You’d been eaten out, but not eaten out. Not like this. Zombies ate brains, not pussies.
And yet… you were being devoured within an inch of your life. Every clench brought out more cum, and Kyle was there to drink it up, flicking his tongue from your entrance to your clit repeatedly, until your vision went blurry with twinkling stars. Every time his tongue returned to its starting position, he always lingered and sometimes slipped in, delving into something he wanted more of. He was tasting you over and over again. Your mouth opened, at first giving nothing but the sound of your breath. His lips closed around your clit, his tongue driving up into your entrance, and a high pitched whine clawed its way out of your throat.
And just like that, the pleasure was gone. Kyle pulled away, panicked.
“Bad?!”  
You shook your head quickly, panting. “No, no…. Good. Very good, Kyle.”
His worried expression softened slightly, but he still looked unsure and scared to keep going. The sound you’d made… all he knew told him it was that he’d done something wrong and he’d hurt you.
“B….buh….. bad…… sssssound…..”
“Nonononono. Very… very good. I made that sound because it feels good. You’re doing a good job.”
He huffed out a breath, the warmth of it washing over you. You writhed, the backs of your thighs rubbing against his bare shoulders. Bent at the elbows, Kyle wrapped his forearms around your legs, wide hands twitching ever so slightly as they caressed you. There was something overwhelmingly erotic in the way he fearfully looked up at you from between your legs. You drew your bottom lip in, biting down as hard as you could to stifle the moan that threatened.
“Please,” you whined. “You’re doing so good, Kyle. It feels so good. You like it, right?”
He nodded, dropping his gaze to look at your cunt, a puddle forming on sheets below. His jaw hung slack as he went back in, his lips enveloping you fully. His tongue was hot and you were sensitive, writhing in his grip. You weren’t aware that you were writhing away from him until his fingers came to life, digging deep into the soft flesh of your thighs.
You arched your back as you came on his tongue, taking fistfuls of the sheets and tightening until you felt the fibres squeak against each other. Kyle growled into your cunt, pulling you closer into him. His tongue flattening against you, feeling the pulsating clenches as they happened.
Kyle straightened up to his knees, stiffly pulling his boxers down over the curve of his ass. His stiff cock sprung free, the swollen head, red and leaking. He seemed to know what he wanted to do, but didn’t know where to start. You scooted down, pressing your legs further open. Kyle shuffled forward on the bed, the springs creaking underneath you.
“It’s okay, Kyle… it’s okay.” Keeping your eyes on him, you took hold of his cock again and gently guided it towards your wet slit. “I’ll make you feel better.”
He allowed himself to be guided, following your direction. His squishy tip slipped in, compressed by your tight walls. The sound that Kyle made — something between a choking breath and a groan — was the only warning you got that a switch had flipped. He knew exactly what to do.
Kyle sunk his length into you, taking only a moment to revel in the feeling of your warm, wet insides. He quickly found his rhythm, bucking in and out with steady intention as he watched you with half-lidded eyes, mouth hanging slack. His pelvis slapped against yours, knocking against your clit each time your bodies met. The visual drove you insane, sending streaks of hot arousal right to your core.
“Gggoooooodddd….” He groaned. “G-good.”
He picked up speed, and you desperately tried to maintain coherency, nodding. Your nails dug into his back, holding on as tight as you could. “Guh-HOHm- my god. Good, yes. G-good, baby.”
Kyle’s large hands snaked their way to your shoulders, encasing them in a steely grip. He pulled himself into you, harder and harder until you felt an unfamiliar ache in your insides, where he could go no farther. You came for a second time with a high-pitched whimper and Kyle kept his pace, grunting. Your wetness splashed against your thighs as he thrust into you, and when you lifted your hips up slightly, Kyle’s fingers curled in, clamping down on your shoulders with a crushing strength. You held back your cries of pain, grinding your hips against his as he pumped into you. Just hold on… let him finish….  
Finally, he released his hold on you, collapsing onto your chest with a heavy breath. Once the vigorous movement had subsided, your sweat-soaked bodies were no longer immune to the lithe, chilly fingers of temperature. Still, you were warm underneath him.
So, so warm.
Kyle fell asleep with his cock inside you. And for the first time in three nights, he didn’t wake up once.

The Great Hall is thrumming with activity as the anticipation of the new school year sets in. 
Sunlight pours through the windows, casting a warm, golden hue onto the tables and cold walls. The clinking of cutlery melds with the lively chatter and bursts of laughter that permeate the hall. Students eagerly catch up with their friends after the summer break, their faces illuminated with excitement and anticipation for the year ahead.
"I don’t know if I’m quite ready for this year." You admit softly. Lily, seated to your left, casts a surprised glance in your direction. Your tone carries a hint of nervousness, a stark difference from your usual excitement for the new school year.
As seventh year begins, the reality of it all felt surreal, almost as if time had slipped through your fingers without warning. Contemplating life beyond Hogwarts seemed daunting, a foggy landscape you weren't quite prepared to navigate. The thought of a future without the familiar halls and comforting routines left you feeling unsettled. Questions about your path post-Hogwarts lingered causing anxiety to tighten in your stomach. The uncertainty of what lay ahead, and where your friendships would stand in the grand scheme of things, clouded your mind.
"Because this is the year you find your soulmate?" Marlene's question hung in the air, causing your stomach to sink even further.
Soulmates were tethered by a thread, an intangible connection that tightens with proximity, drawing them closer by an irresistible pull. As their 18th birthday approached, the magnetic pull between soulmates intensified, drawing them closer together in an undeniable bond. 
Even in their younger years, soulmates could sense the faint tug of their connection, though it often was difficult to discern between fleeting infatuation and the unbreakable bond between soulmates. However, as the milestone birthday drew nearer, the pull became unmistakable, a magnetic force guiding them to their soulmate. 
At least, that's what you've heard from those who have experienced it firsthand.
“I don’t know if I’m ready for that.” You confirm, and Lily sends you an understanding look. Neither of you had found your soulmates, while Marlene had found her soulmate in Dorcas.
The timing of finding one's soulmate varied greatly from person to person. Some discovered theirs early on in life, while others didn't find theirs until mere days before their 18th birthday. It all depended on the person and how open they were to the connection.
"We'll be going through it together." Lily says, her smile soft as she bumped her shoulder against yours. It did offer some comfort. Lily Evans had been your best friend since first year, and the thought of her being by your side made the upcoming year feel a bit more bearable.
"What if James is your soulmate?" You ask, your tone laced with playful teasing. However, Lily's hopeful expression catches you off guard, prompting you to shift your gaze towards Marlene in shock. Across the table, Marlene and Dorcas appear just as taken aback by Lily's unexpected reaction. It's a stark contrast from the adamant denials she would have offered last year.
"Maybe he is." Lily says quietly, her tone nonchalant as she offers a simple shrug, as if what she just said isn't a big deal.
“Are you..When did this happen?” Dorcas asks, and you and Marlene eye Lily curiously.
Since the moment you met him, Lily had been skillfully evading James's advances, urging him to seek out his true soulmate rather than pursuing her. Despite Lily's dismissals, James remained steadfast in his belief that she was the one destined for him. Deep down, you sensed a potential soulmate connection between them, but you never brought up the subject with Lily, knowing she would vehemently deny the idea.
Lily looks up with feigned innocence, “What?”
Marlene sighs, “Lily Evans, don’t you dare play dumb. When did your feelings towards James change?” 
"I don’t know. Over the summer, I guess, I realized I’ve been a bit unfair to him," She sighs. "He’s been nothing but kind, and I’ve just blown him off. And honestly, he was on my mind most of the summer."
"Merlin, we've barely been here for two hours, and the soulmate bonds are already starting." Marlene grins, amused.
"I didn't say I thought he was mine!" Lily cries out.
"You said maybe. That heavily implies that you do." You chuckle at the panicked look on Lily’s face, fully aware that she's going to be teased about this relentlessly.
"Have you felt a pull with him?" Dorcas asks, and Lily's cheeks flush with a delicate shade of pink.
“I mean, yes. But couldn’t that just be the annoyance I feel towards him half the time?” Lily asks.
"With that logic, you and Sirius are soulmates." Marlene interjects, her grin mischievous as she takes a sip of her tea, her gaze fixed on you over the brim of her mug. Your expression sours at the mere mention of his name, a subtle shift in mood palpable in the air.
“There is no way that Sirius Black is my soulmate.” You snark, the mere thought of Sirius causing your stomach to knot with intense emotion. Hatred, you conclude.
It's the mere mention of Sirius Black that tends to stir up the worst in you. His name alone triggers a cascade of emotions within you, igniting a visceral reaction that you struggle to contain. Just the thought of him is enough to set your nerves on edge, reminding you of past conflicts and tensions that still linger beneath the surface.
It's not as though you hadn't attempted to be friendly with Sirius. Shortly after your arrival at Hogwarts, James Potter had introduced himself to you and Lily in the Gryffindor common room. He was accompanied by Remus, and while James eagerly engaged Lily in conversation, you found yourself drawn to Remus, the two of you hitting it off. You chatted for what felt like hours, so engrossed in your conversation that you barely noticed Sirius and Peter entering the common room.
However, the moment your eyes landed on Sirius, it felt as though the air had been knocked out of your lungs. For a brief second you had wondered if he was your soulmate. Everything blurred into a hazy backdrop, your eyes unable to part from his figure.
Remus didn’t miss the way you seemed to drift away from the conversation, your gaze fixed on Sirius as he made his way over to where you all were seated. You and Remus occupied the couch, while Lily and James were comfortable in their own armchairs. Sirius and Peter hovered nearby, a curious expression etched across their features, clearly unsure who the two unfamiliar girls engaged in conversation with their friends were.
Remus had introduced you while James and Lily remained preoccupied, not yet noticing the two boys, "Mates, this is Y/n," Remus had said, his warm smile welcoming.
Peter had been friendly and eager, extending his hand with enthusiasm as he shared a bit about himself. But Sirius remained silent, his expression etched with a subtle frown. When you attempted to engage him in conversation, he responded with curt one-word answers, leaving you feeling increasingly self-conscious, questioning what you might have done wrong.
Remus had assured you that Sirius wasn't usually like that, and he promised that the next time you saw him, he would likely be more talkative and outgoing. You clung to hope, eagerly anticipating a change in Sirius' demeanor, only to be met with disappointment when his behavior remained unchanged. In the company of others, he exuded friendliness, cracking jokes and radiating outgoing energy. 
Yet, when his attention turned to you, he completely shifted, hardly communicating and barely sparing you a glance.
You couldn't figure out what you might have done wrong. From the moment you met Sirius, you had been nothing but friendly, offering a warm smile and introducing yourself with genuine enthusiasm. Lily, who shared many similarities with you, greeted Sirius in much the same manner, yet he responded to her without hesitation. It left you wondering: what had been so different about your interaction with him?
Over time, frustration crept in, and you found yourself growing increasingly sarcastic or curt in your interactions with him. Before long, your relationship devolved into incessant bickering and exchanging snide comments.
Any inkling that Sirius might be your soulmate was swiftly forgotten.
"Oi! Princess! You talking about me over there?" Sirius' voice cuts through the chatter, drawing your attention to the Marauders down the table. His cocky smirk meets your gaze, and for a fleeting moment, you wonder if he overheard your conversation. But he's too far away to have eavesdropped, yet close enough to call out to you, and his voice effortlessly grabs the attention of quite a few other students at the Gryffindor table. 
The students in your year hardly flinch, accustomed to the heated banter that often erupted between you and Sirius. Observing the familiar fighting between you and Sirius was almost expected; it wouldn't have felt like the first day of school without it for some of the students.
“Not everything revolves around you, Black.” You retort, rolling your eyes at his arrogance. Anger begins to simmer within you, heat radiating through your body as frustration builds.
You assume he must have just noticed you, considering you've been had a peaceful morning so far. But little did you know, Sirius had fixed his gaze on you the moment he entered the hall, and he's been eager to get under your skin. Anything to capture your attention.
Sirius, undeterred, flashes a grin that seems to stretch from ear to ear. “So mean already. Didn’t you miss me? The months without you were unbearable.” He calls, his tone dripping with amusement, clearly deriving great enjoyment from riling you up.
“Do you really think I spend my free time thinking about you?” You're sending him an irritated frown, but your eyes are lit up with a fire that's reserved only for him. It's the same look you get every time the two of you fight, and he loves it.
"I think you do, princess. I think I drive you crazy.” He declares with that smug grin plastered on his face, igniting a burning sensation in your stomach.
You remain silent, too consumed by anger to muster a response. His words strike a chord because, deep down, you know he's right. He has a way of driving you to the brink of frustration. You have wracked your brain, relentlessly trying to decipher why he harbors such animosity towards you and where you might have gone wrong with him.
You're momentarily caught off guard, your mind racing to come up with a response that doesn't betray your irritation, much less let Sirius think he's gotten to you. Fortunately, Remus swiftly engages him in conversation, likely sensing the tension brewing on your face.
"I'm telling you, there's a connection there." Marlene insists, and you shoot her a glare, prompting a laugh to escape her lips.
.·。.·゜✭·.·✫·゜·。.
The initial night back at Hogwarts always proved the most challenging for you. It took a few nights before you could finally settle into the unfamiliar bed and drift off to sleep without difficulty. The weight of it being your final year lingered heavily in your mind, along with the daunting task of uncovering your soulmate.
Seated before the crackling fire, you enveloped yourself in the warmth of your blanket, captivated by the dancing of the flames. Your silent wish lingered in the air - that, perhaps, if you remained in this cozy atmosphere long enough, fatigue would gradually claim you.
"Up late thinking of me, princess?" Sirius's voice breaks the silence, causing your body to tense reflexively. You shoot him a glare over your shoulder as he settles into the floor beside you, his gaze fixed on the flickering flames instead of meeting yours.
"What are you doing?" You quip, your tone laced with irritation. Sirius glances in your direction, leaning back on his palms with a subtle smirk playing on his lips. Amusement dances in his eyes as he takes in your furrowed brows and the unmistakable look of irritation etched across your features.
“Warming up. It’s rather cold in the dorm,” He says, before glancing down at the blanket that’s wrapped around your figure. “Care to share? ”
“Get fucked,” You huff, pulling the blanket tighter around your figure, your gaze fixed on the fireplace as you ignore Sirius's laughter, “Why are you sitting here? Go somewhere else.”
“Where’s the fun in that?”
“I’m not in the mood to deal with you.” You snark, your hopes of relaxing by the fire dashed by the unexpected disruption.
“And when are you?” Sirius's tone carries a teasing edge, and a mischievous grin tugs at his lips as he observes your bristling reaction. 
He longs for you to turn and meet his gaze, to shoot him the scathing glare he's so accustomed to receiving.
You turn sharply, your eyes narrowing into thin slits as you fix them on Sirius, a silent warning brewing in your gaze. There she is, he thinks.
“Go somewhere else.” You repeat, staring Sirius down.
“No.” He declares, shifting his position to squarely face you, leaving no doubt that he has no intention of backing down or leaving anytime soon.
“What’s your problem?” You grit out your words, and Sirius narrows his eyes at you as though you've struck a nerve. His reaction is swift, catching you off guard. While you and Sirius have always engaged in banter, he had never looked at you with such palpable hatred before.
“You.” He snaps, his voice dripping with disdain, devoid of its usual teasing lilt that never fails to irk you. Instead, his expression morphs into one of genuine animosity, a stark departure from the usual banter that fuels your frustration.
“Why? What have I ever done to you?” You're worked up now, your heart thumping with frustration as you pivot to fully face him. In your angered state, you miscalculate the proximity between you, and you're startled to find yourselves mere inches apart. Neither of you budges, both refusing to back away, as doing so would feel like conceding defeat.
Neither of you speaks, the air heavy with tension as you stare at each other through narrowed eyes, chests heaving with unresolved emotions. And in a heart-stopping moment, you feel it—the undeniable tug, the unspoken connection between you.
Your mouth parts in surprise, caught off guard by the intensity of the moment. Before you can truly react, Sirius rises abruptly and strides back to his room, leaving you sitting in stunned silence by the fireplace.

Tumblr media
The Gryffindor common room was ablaze with excitement as the Gryffindors celebrated their recent Quidditch victory against Slytherin. Waterloo by ABBA blared from the record player—courtesy of your best friend, Lily Evans. There were streamers of red and gold, along with a large banner with the words Gryffindor painted in red. There was a large table with sandwiches, cakes, pasties, and Honeydukes sweets, as well as a huge bowl of very suspicious-looking punch along with bottles of butterbeer and firewhiskey scattered around.
James Potter, the star Quidditch captain, was being hoisted onto the shoulders of his teammates as they chanted his name. Among the crowd, you spotted Sirius Black doing a little victory dance, while Peter Pettigrew was enthusiastically shovelling food onto his plate, and Remus Lupin was leaning against the wall with a small smile on his face, clearly enjoying the sight of his friends.
You turned your attention back to your friends, who danced along to the beat of the song. You couldn’t help but smile at the sight of your friends enjoying the night.
“Having fun, Y/n/n?” Lily asked as she twirled around.
“I am,” you chuckled, swaying your hips to the beat.
“You’re rocking that skirt, Y/n.” Marlene complimented.
You playfully rolled your eyes as you tugged on your skirt, still wondering how you ended up being coerced into wearing a form-fitting black leather skirt from Mary’s closet. “It’s awfully short, and it keeps riding up my thighs.”
“Don’t be ridiculous, Y/n!” Mary chastised, swatting your hands away from the hem of the skirt. “You have the hips for it, and it makes your arse look good.”
You laughed and shook your head, knowing there was no arguing with Mary when it came to fashion. “Well, if you say so-” You were cut off by a tap on your shoulder.
“Hey, pretty girl.” 
You rolled your eyes at the sight of Sirius Black trying to flirt with you. Sirius Black, the notorious ladies’ man and troublemaker, had always had a way of getting under your skin. His cocky smile and arrogance made you want to roll your eyes and give him a piece of your mind every time he came near you.
"Seriously, Black, can't you give it a rest?" you snapped, crossing your arms and turning away from him.
“But come on, love, you can't deny that I'm the most charming bloke around,” Sirius said, flashing his signature grin.
Rolling your eyes again, you huffed, "Charming? More like insufferable. I've had enough of your sorry excuse for compliments.”
Sirius chuckled, unbothered by your rejection. “I'll have you know that I can be quite serious when the situation calls for it.”
You scoffed. “The only thing serious about you is your name. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have better things to do than listen to your nonsense.”
With that, you turned on your heel and walked away, your friends trailing behind you.
“What the fuck was that, Y/n?” Mary asked with a raised brow.
“What? It’s not like I haven’t turned him down before.”
Mary scoffed. “Don’t tell me you still believe in finding your soulmate.”
You raised a brow at Mary. “Is there something wrong with that?”
“Well, I just don’t believe in that fairy-tale rubbish. Soulmates and true love—it's all a load of nonsense if you ask me,” Mary replied, shaking her head. “I just don't see how one person can be destined for another. There are billions of people in the world; it seems impossible that there's just one person meant for each of us.”
“Mary’s right,” Lily agreed. “And even if soulmates do exist, how do you know you'll ever find yours?”
You shrugged. “I don’t know; I just think there’s someone out there for everyone. Call me a hopeless romantic, but I like to believe in the idea of soulmates and true love. It gives me hope, you know?” 
“Come on, Y/n, be real. When the hell are you going to find the one if you keep turning down every guy who tries to ask you out?” Lily asked with an exasperated sigh.
You rolled your eyes, turning to face the redhead. “I don’t know; maybe when sparks fly?” 
Suddenly, there was a loud explosion, and when you turned to look, sparks were flying literally out of the record player. Remus Lupin stood there frozen, his cheeks flushing from all the unwanted attention on him.
Your eyes locked into his; you felt as if time slowed down around you and everyone else just faded from view.
“What the bloody hell happened, Moony?” James Potter’s voice rang out, snapping you out of your trance.
“N-Nothing, I-I’ve just pulled the needle too early.” Remus stumbled on his words, his eyes not leaving yours.
You couldn’t help but chuckle at Remus’ embarrassment, but you couldn’t deny the flutter of butterflies in your stomach. As the chaos of the common room continued, you found yourself stealing glances at Remus, who had turned back to the record player to fix the problem.
“Come on, everybody! Let’s play seven minutes in heaven!” Sirius announced, trying to redirect the attention away from Remus.
You found yourself being tugged along by Lily, who insisted that you join in on the fun.
“Come on, Y/n, it’ll be a laugh! Plus, who knows, you might end up with your soulmate in the closet.” Lily teased, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.
“Oh, shut it, Evans.” You groaned inwardly, not liking the idea of being locked in a closet with someone for seven minutes, but nonetheless, you followed your friends into the centre of the room, where an empty firewhiskey bottle was set up in the middle of a circle.
“Okay, so whoever the neck and the base of the bottle stops at has to spend seven minutes in the broom closet,” Sirius explained, pointing to the closet near the portrait hole. “You go first, Prongs,” Sirius said, passing the bottle to James with a smirk.
James spun the bottle, and it miraculously landed on Lily, which made her scowl and cross her arms over her chest. “I am not getting in that closet with you, Potter.”
“Come on, Evans, I didn’t make rules.”
“Go on, Lils,” you urged, a sly smirk plastered on your lips. “Rules are rules.”
Lily’s scowl deepened as she glared at you. “Fine.” Lily stomped towards the closet, James trailing behind her with a wide grin while the rest burst into a fit of giggles and cheers—including you, knowing that Lily would hex James into the next century if he tried anything.
A little while later, James came out of the closet rubbing his cheek an effect you know so well—Lily had hit him with stinging hexes.
“You alright?” Marlene asked, trying not to laugh at the look on Lily’s face as she sat between the two of you.
“Shut up.” Lily hissed, rolling her eyes. “Potter called me carrot top!” 
“Alright, who’s next?” Sirius asked, trying to get the game going by spinning the bottle again. Your eyes followed the bottle as it spun around, anxiously waiting to see whether you were the next victim or not. This time it landed on you, and the other side was at Remus.
“My, my, my! Look who we have next!” Sirius announced loudly.
When the realisation set in that you would have to spend seven minutes with Remus Lupin in a small, hot, cramped closet, your cheeks flushed. Remus’s face began to match yours as the rest of the boys began to cheer—the girls even joining in—Lily had the same sly smirk you had just minutes ago.
“Go on, Y/n/n,” Lily urged, pushing you to stand. From the corner of your eye, you saw Remus stand up with a defeated sigh and make his way to you while the rest of the Marauders teased him.
Remus looked at you with an apologetic smile, his hand out, ready to help you up. You looked from your friends to the group and finally up to Remus, your eyes meeting his. Remus’ brown hair framed his face perfectly; he had long silver scars littering his face down to his neck, but he still looked as handsome as ever.
Remus crouched down beside you, his lips a few inches away from your ear, his hand out for you to take. “We don't have to do this, you know? We can just sit back down and let someone else-”
“No, no, it's alright, let’s do this”. You whispered back, taking his warm hand into yours. Everyone started to cheer, with your friends and the Marauders being the loudest of the lot. The two of you made your way into the closet.
“Go get some, Moony!” James laughed, his hands mimicking two people kissing, making Remus groan.
“Only seven minutes, love birds; use them wisely!” Sirius teased as you and Remus stepped inside. The moment the door shut, the two of you were plunged into darkness. You realised how small this closet really was; you were an inch away from being chest-to-chest with Remus.
You could feel Remus shifting in front of you, the air around you becoming warm with the close proximity. You tried to ignore the sight of his face in the dim lighting—chiseled jawline, strong nose, and brown eyes. Why the bloody hell did he have to be so handsome?
“Is it hot in here?” Remus asked, breaking the silence between the two of you as he fanned himself with his hand before fanning you as well. “Are you hot? I mean, you are hot-” You couldn’t help but laugh at what Remus had just said. Although you couldn’t see it, you knew his eyes had widened.
“S-sorry, I-I mean….” Remus stammered. The sound of your giggles made his cheeks feel warm. “I’m not exactly the smoothest bloke out here.” He chuckled nervously.
“Remus, it’s alright; I mean, it is a little stuffy in here.” you assured him, patting him on the shoulder.
“Yeah, it is,” Remus agreed before reaching into his pocket, pulling out his wand, and muttering, “Lumos.”
The light filled the small space and made you see the whole closet for the first time. If it were anyone else, you’d be panicking right now, but being with Remus didn’t feel as nerve-wracking.
“Sorry about this, Y/n,” Remus mumbled. “I didn’t think you would have wanted to be stuck in a closet with me.”
You chuckled, feeling heat rising to your cheeks. “It's fine, Remus. I know it's all just a game.”
“Thanks for coming with me here, I-“ Remus gulped, “I appreciate it.”
You raised a brow at him, a coy smile playing on your lips. “Remus, do you even know how many girls are wishing to be in my place right now? Merlin, they even call you the Casanova of Gryffindor tower!” 
“Okay,” Remus began to relax, now laughing with you. “But that's just because I'm nice—nice to girls who just so happen to find me cute. Plus, I mean,” he breathed. “It's not like I'd pursue anything with them.”
You cock a brow, your teasing smile only growing as he rushes to defend, “I mean—they're all nice right back to me, but—I just have my eyes on someone else.”
You felt your heart skip a beat at Remus’ words. “Someone else, huh? Who could that be?” 
“It’s just...” Remus hesitated, running his hand through his hair nervously. “I just feel like soulmates exist, you know? Maybe it’s stupid, but I can’t help it. I want to believe that there’s someone out there for me. Someone who gets me Someone who makes me feel... complete.”
Your heart pounded in your chest, and your mind was racing with questions. Were you just reading into things too much? Or was Remus trying to tell you something?
“I don’t think it’s stupid at all, Remus,” you said, your voice soft.
“I believe in soulmates too.” Remus looked up at you, surprised.  “You do?” 
You nodded, a smile tugging at the corners of your lips. But before you could utter another word, there was a harsh bang against the closet door, interrupting your thoughts.
“I don't hear any kissing in that closet! Come on, you guys, don't be boring! You have three minutes left!” James’ voice echoed, muffled by the closet door.
You and Remus exchanged a glance before chuckling and shaking your heads.
“You know we don't have to do anything, right? I would never want to pressure you into anything, wizard’s honour,” Remus assured, raising a hand.
You smiled softly at his reassurance. “Eh, it sounds like they want a show. Who are we to deny them of it?” Your cheeks begin to flush, your heart pounding inside of your chest. But his lack of response made you nervous about the forwardness of your comment.
“Maybe we could just...” you gulped. “Make it seem like it.” Remus’ brows knitted in confusion. “You know, just make sounds to make them think,” you explained, hoping he'd understand.
Remus nodded, the confusion leaving his expression. “Right, that's a good idea.”
“Follow my lead.” You chuckled, winking at him.
Remus smirked. “Alright, take the stage.”
Your eyes twinkled with mischief before you banged on the closet door and let out a loud moan. “Oh fuck, Remus!”
“Oh shit, Moony’s getting some!” Sirius’ voice rang out along with loud cheers from everyone else outside the broom closet.
Remus’ eyes widened, clearly not expecting that from you. You jerked your head at him, urging him to do the same.
Remus let out an exaggerated groan: “O-oh, yes, baby girl, so good!”
“Oh Merlin, yes, yes!” 
“Pinch me here,” Remus whispered, pointing to his neck. You obliged and pinched his neck lightly.
“Ouch! That hurt, baby girl!” Remus grunted. “You like it rough, huh, baby girl?”
“What in Merlin’s name are they doing?” Lily asked, horrified.
“They’re shagging, Evans; do try and catch up," Sirius said, mouth agape at the sounds coming from the closet.
The two of you continued to put on a performance, making kissing noises, grunts, thumping, and moaning from time to time.
And then, before you knew it, the door was being flung open by Sirius. “Time's up! Come on, you two lovebirds.”
Remus shot up, his face flushed. The two of you had your foreheads pressed together, hands intertwined, and clothes dishevelled. It felt strangely right, like connecting with Remus was something you were meant to do. He pulled you up, and the two of you walked out, avoiding everyone’s gaze, which seemed to be snickering. As soon as the two of you sat down, everyone didn’t waste time teasing both of you as you sat down.
“Remus, you sly dog!” James laughed, clapping Remus on the back.
“Wow, that was intense!” Peter chuckled, looking at you and Remus.
“Yeah, we thought the two of you had gotten lost in there,” Sirius added with a smirk.
“You slag, Y/n L/n!” Mary teased.
“Well, that was quite the show!” Marlene teased, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.
“I can’t believe you shagged Remus Lupin in a broom closet!” Lily rolled her eyes, but there was a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
You let out a groan and buried your face in your hands in embarrassment. “Can we not talk about this anymore? Move on to the next ones, please!”
“There will be no next, Miss L/n.” A voice said, and everyone in the room fell quiet. You lifted your head from your hands to see Professor McGonagall.
The excited chatter turned to hushed whispers. Everyone in the circle quickly stood up, some nearly toppling over because of the alcohol they consumed.
“This game ends now. If there are any further disruptions, there will be consequences. Is that clear?”
“We were just having some fun, Minnie,” Sirius explained, a cheeky grin plastered on his face.
“Fun is one thing, but disrupting the entire Gryffindor tower is another. I suggest you all clean up this mess and head off to bed,” Professor McGonagall ordered, her stern gaze sweeping over the room.
The room was quickly cleared of food, drinks, and decorations as everyone began to leave, grumbling and complaining about their fun being ruined. You helped Lily, Mary, and Marlene gather the streamers and discarded plates.
“Come on, Y/n/n, let’s head up,” Lily said, nudging you with her elbow. “I doubt Professor McGonagall is done giving her lecture for the night.”
 “Yeah, that was a bit reckless, don’t you think?” Marlene added.
 You sighed, feeling guilty for being a part of the chaos that had ensued. “I know, I know. I’m sorry, guys.”
“It’s okay; it was all good fun,” Mary assured
You nodded, trying to shake off the lingering embarrassment from the game and the moment you had shared with Remus.
“You sure? You’ve been quiet since you and Remus came out of the closet,” Lily teased, raising a suggestive eyebrow.
 “Oh, shove off, Evans.” You rolled your eyes, playfully shoving her.
The four of you made your way up to the girls' dormitory, still reeling from tonight’s high, when someone called from behind you. You looked back only to see Remus jogging up towards you. You looked back at your friends, who were smirking at you before they stepped inside the dormitories—but you knew that they’d be listening from behind the door.
“Uh, hi.” Remus smiled sheepishly.
“Hey, Remus. What's up?” you asked, trying to act unsurprised but feeling the butterflies in your stomach were saying otherwise.
Remus stopped in front of you, nervously scratching the back of his neck. “Hey, Y/n. I just wanted to say that I had a great time with you, uh, in the closet. I mean, we made a great team, putting on that show. And, uh, I was wondering if maybe you'd like to do it again? Not the closet, of course, but... hang out, I mean.” He stumbled over his words, his cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
You couldn't help but smile at his awkwardness, feeling a rush of warmth at the thought of spending more time with him. “I'd like that, Remus. I had a good time too,” you replied, feeling a strange flutter in your stomach.
“Great!” Remus grinned, looking relieved. “Um, maybe we could, I don't know, go for a walk by the lake or something? If you want to, that is.”
Before you could answer his question, the door swung open, revealing Lily, Marlene, and Mary peeking out from behind.
“Time to hit the hay, lovebirds!” Mary interrupted, a sly smirk playing on her lips.
Remus chuckled, trying not to be too embarrassed in front of your friends. “Uh, so what do you say?”
“A walk by the lake sounds wonderful, Remus. I’d love to.”
“Great, it’s a date then,” Remus replied, a smile lighting his face. I’ll see you tomorrow at breakfast, Y/n?” 
“Yes, definitely; I’ll see you then.”
You turned to walk up to your friends before giving Remus one last look. “Good night, Remus.” You smiled, leaning against the doorframe, your friends grinning behind you.
Remus smiled, his cheeks flushing pink. “Good night, Y/n.”
As soon as you step inside, your friends start to squeal.
“Okay, is it possible for you guys to not embarrass the living daylights out of me?” You growled with a mock glare, trying to hide the smile you couldn’t fight as you stepped inside the bathroom to get ready for bed.
“I can’t believe it!” Lily said, jumping up and down in excitement. “You and Remus, a walk by the lake—it's like something out of a romance novel!” 
“Okay, okay, simmer down,” you said, rolling your eyes. “It’s not like it’s a date or anything."
"Yeah, right, we’ve never seen you smile like that before,” Lily teased, wiggling her eyebrows.
“It was just a walk by the lake, nothing special,” you insisted, shrugging your shoulders.
“Sure, sure,” Marlene said, rolling her eyes playfully.
“I hope he knows how lucky he is,” Mary added with a dreamy look.
“Should I go down and give him some pointers?” Marlene teased, earning a playful slap on the arm from Lily.
“You guys are insufferable, you know that?” You groaned, feeling your cheeks flush with embarrassment.
“Don’t pretend like you aren’t excited, Y/n,” Lily said with a wry smile.
“Fine, maybe I am a little excited about it,” you admitted, unable to stop a small smile from tugging at your lips.
“You should be, after all of what happened in the closet,” Marlene teased, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.
“Oh, shut it. I’m going to bed before you all drive me crazy,” you groaned, rolling your eyes.
“Goodnight, lovergirl!” Lily called after you with a laugh as you climbed into bed, unable to stop a smile from spreading across your face.
As you settled into bed, you couldn’t stop thinking about the way Remus had looked at you, the warmth in his eyes, and the nervousness in his voice. You knew there was something there—something deep and unspoken, something that made you feel more alive than you had in a long time.
Meanwhile, Remus stood at the top of the staircase, staring at the door to the girls’ dormitories, a huge smile plastered on his facele.
“Oi, Moony! What are you smiling about, you lunatic?” James asked, approaching Remus with a confused look, Sirius and Peter trailing behind him.
"Nothing; I, uh, just had a good night tonight,” Remus replied with a shy smile. “I, uh, asked Y/n out on a walk by the lake tomorrow.”
James grinned, clapping Remus on the back. “That's great, mate!” James chuckled. “Finally decided to make a move, huh?”
Remus blushed and shrugged, feeling embarrassed. “I just had a really great time with her tonight, and I want to get to know her better,” he admitted.
“You've got it bad, mate,” Peter teased. “You’re already pining for her!”
“I wasn’t pining, I just...” Remus trailed off with a blush.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever you say, Moony,” Sirius chuckled, giving him a nudge.
“I’m happy for you, mate. I hope it goes well.” James smiled, giving Remus a pat on the shoulder.
“Thanks, Prongs,” Remus said, feeling grateful for his friend’s support.
“I’m happy for you too, Moony.” Peter smiled, clapping him on the back.
“What about you, Pads?” James asked, raising an eyebrow at Sirius, who rolled his eyes.
“Okay, I’m happy for you, Moons. But I’m the one that should be-” 
“Okay Pads!” James said, clapping a hand over Sirius’ mouth. “You’re happy for Moony!”
“Yeah, yeah, I heard you loud and clear,” Sirius grumbled, playfully shoving James' hand away. “But that doesn’t mean I can’t have a little fun too, does it?”
Remus laughed, feeling grateful for his friends and excited for his date with you. He couldn’t deny that there was something special about you—something that made his heart race and his palms sweat. Maybe, just maybe, you were the one he had been waiting for all along.
Maybe now he has somebody to love.
Surprisingly, Remus struggled to go to sleep that night; his smile was too wide and his dreams too big to relax and fall asleep. But eventually, his thoughts calmed down to imagining what the morning would bring, what her hair would look like, what she would wear, and what he'd say to her in class, finally allowing him to go to sleep.
Tumblr media
The light slowly crept through the curtains of your four-poster bed, sunlight casting a warm glow over your face. You could hear loud shuffling from outside and stop at your bedside, the bed dipping down.
“Wake up, sleeping beauty!” Mary’s loud singsong voice echoed in your ears, making you groan in annoyance.
You turned your back at her, covering your head with your pillow. “Leave me alone,” you mumbled, still bleary-eyed.
“Get up, Y/n/n! We’re going to be late for breakfast!” Lily urged you, shaking your shoulder and yanking the pillow away from your head.
Groaning in protest, you reluctantly sit up and rub your eyes. “Fine, fine, I’m up.”
“Hurry up, don’t you want to see your soulmate at breakfast?” Lily teased, making Mary and Marlene snicker.
At the comment, your eyes popped open, meeting her knowing stare, eventually getting shy under her gaze, hiding your face in the pillow. She was right, so, albeit slowly, you pulled yourself up, dragging your feet to the bathroom to start getting ready.
You showered, washed, combed and dried your hair, brushed your teeth, and got dressed. You walked out of the bathroom to find your friends waiting for you, all of them giving you sly smirks as you walked towards them.
“What do you all have up your sleeves?” You asked, eyeing them suspiciously.
"Nothing; we’re just excited for you!” Lily said with a playful wink.
“Oh, please,” you scoffed, rolling your eyes. “Keep it down, you lot.” 
With your lips glossed, your long hair braided to the side, and your uniform smoothed out, you grabbed your bag and followed your friends out of the common room and down the spiral staircase to the Great Hall for breakfast.
You made your way down to the Great Hall with your friends, Mary and Marlene, linking arms while you walked alongside Lily, chatting and laughing as you made your way to the Gryffindor table.
As you entered the hall, your eyes scanned the room and landed on Remus, who was sitting with his friends. Remus glanced up at you and met your eyes, a smile spreading across his face. You felt a rush of warmth in your chest as you returned his smile.
From your fleeting glance, you were still able to see his dark brown curls perfectly framing his chiseled face. Merlin he was cute. A small smile formed as you hurried to your usual seat beside Lily, who was already looking between you and Remus, a tease on the tip of her tongue. But with your averting gaze and soft sigh as you began to load your plate, she swallowed any comment down with the flush of her pumpkin juice.
In Remus’ eyes, you couldn't look more beautiful. Your hair was vibrant and bouncing just like you, and you looked effortlessly beautiful, essentially strutting to your seat beside Lily after catching his stare.
“Mate, you're going to burn holes into her head if you keep staring.” James laughed, chewing on his first sausage of the morning.
“Oh, piss off, you hypocrite! You’re acting like you weren't staring at Lily just the same.” Remus scowled, lightly pushing James’ elbow off the table but laughing hard as it threw him off balance, Prongs’ fighting to stay on his seat, and the boys fighting to keep their boisterous laughter down.
“You’re looking at her like she took the moon out of the sky.” Peter pointed out as he shovelled some eggs into his mouth.
“You don’t understand; she’s just different,” Remus mumbled, feeling a warm flush spread across his cheeks.
“Oi, quit ogling at her. Stop being such a hopeless romantic and eat your eggs.” Sirius smirked, pushing the plate of eggs in front of him.
“Alright, back off, lads,” James intervened, swatting Sirius and Peter and grabbing a piece of toast. “He's nervous. A bloke can only handle so much. It’s not everyday that Moony is out of his wits.” Taking a bite of his toast, a sly smile crossed his lips as he watched the interaction from the corner of his eye.
“Oh, for Merlin’s sake, can we just have breakfast in peace?” Remus groaned, taking a bite of his toast.
James chuckled, knowing that he had hit a spot. “Alright, Remus, just relax. You don't want to scare her off before you even get the chance to talk to her properly.”
“You think I don't know that?” Remus hissed, feeling his cheeks heat up even more.
“Just play it cool, mate. You'll be fine,” Sirius reassured, clapping Remus on the back.
“Yeah, just be yourself, and she'll fall for you in no time.” Peter added.
Remus sighed, trying to ignore the butterflies that were dancing in his stomach. He couldn't remember the last time he felt this nervous around a girl, and it was equal parts terrifying and exhilarating.
“Now,” James chuckled. “Eat the bloody eggs, Moony. We don’t want a cranky werewolf, do we?”
Remus couldn’t help but laugh, his cheeks still flushed. “Alright, alright,” he said, rolling his eyes. “Wanker.”
This caught the eyes of none other than Y/n, who was already staring at Remus, only starting to smile seeing him so in his element, laughing happily with his friends, hiding his blushing cheeks behind his scarred hand.
As you ate your breakfast, you found it hard to keep your attention on your food. Your eyes kept drifting back to Remus. A small smile tugged at your lips as you watched the way his eyes crinkled when he laughed and the way he ran a hand through his hair when he blushed.
Feeling a warmth spread throughout your chest, you couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement at the thought of your walk with Remus later that day. And the longer you looked at him, the more you felt butterflies in your stomach. You continued to sneak glances at him throughout breakfast, feeling your cheeks flush with warmth as he caught your eyes and smiled back at you. The moment felt surreal, but in the best way possible.
As breakfast came to an end, Remus stood up from the table, looking over at you with a warm smile. With a shy smile, Remus asked, “Can I, uh, walk you to class, Y/n?”
Your friends started giggling from behind you, making you flush in embarrassment, your cheeks nearly rivalling Lily's red hair. You turned to glare at them, only to see their smiles wide—wider than the Cheshire cat, if possible.
“Go on, give him an answer,” Mary urged, a teasing smirk on her lips.
Remus shifted nervously as he waited for your response. You turned back to him and nodded. “I’d like that, Remus.”
Remus smiled, relieved at your response. “Great.” He extended his hand to you. “Shall we?”
You nodded, throwing your bag over your shoulder before taking his hand to stand up. “See you later, girls.”
“Have fun, Y/n. Take your time!” Marlene called out, making you scowl and roll your eyes.
“Come on, Remus, let’s go.” You smiled, fighting the heat as it rose to your cheeks. You and Remus started to walk out of the bustling hall.
“Oi, lover boy!” James called out to Remus with a huge grin.
Remus groaned, refusing to look back at James. “Bugger off, Prongs!” 
You chuckled at his annoyance, his nose crinkled up, and his brows furrowing—which you find cute.
“Don’t forget protection!” Sirius yelled, laughing loudly.
Remus groaned even louder, his cheeks turning beet red, while you stifled a laugh.
“I’m going to kill them, as soon as they fall asleep.” he muttered, tugging at his scarf nervously.
You shook your head, laughing softly. “Don’t worry about them. They're just having fun.”
As you and Remus walked side by side on your way to your first class, you couldn’t help but feel a sense of comfort and contentment. The world around you seemed to fade away, and for that moment, it was just the two of you sharing each other’s company, and before you knew it, you had reached your classroom.
“Thanks for walking me, Remus,” you said with a warm smile. “I’ll see you later?”
Remus smiled back at you and said, “Yes, I’ll see you later.” He sighed contentedly as you stepped inside the classroom, feeling his heart thump loudly in his chest.
Remus turned away and walked to his respective class, still reeling from the sight of your smile, when someone laughed from behind him.
“There’s our good old-fashioned lover boy!”  Sirius laughed at the sight of Remus, looking like a lovesick puppy—well, like a lovesick wolf cub.
“Merlin, Moony, you look like a walking tomato,” James teased, ruffling his hair.
“Leave me alone,” Remus groaned, feeling his cheeks flush even more. “I can’t believe you guys! ”
“You’ve got it bad, Moony,” Peter grinned. “It’s written all over your face.”
The taunting and teasing continued all the way to their first class—History of Magic—and as Remus took his seat, he couldn’t help but feel excited for the walk with you later, wondering what he could do to make it special for you.
What about a picnic? That’s nice; she would like that.
Flowers—every girl loves flowers, right? Maybe I can stop by the greenhouse and pick some up for her. Wait, what flowers does she even like?
Remus sighed, slumping in his seat. Of course he wouldn’t know what her favourite flowers were; hell, he didn’t know a thing about her yet. Remus felt hopeless; there was no way he could surprise you, unless...
“Prongs,” Remus whispered, tapping James on the shoulder.
“Huh?” James mumbled, half-awake.
“Can you guys help me with something?” Remus asked, a hopeful look in his eyes.
James yawned, rubbing his eyes awake. “What do you need?”
Remus took a deep breath. “I want to surprise Y/n later.”
James’ eyes widened. “You romantic son of a—Oi Sirius, wake up!” James nudged Sirius hard, jolting him awake.
“Where’s the dragon!? Where!?” Sirius exclaimed, bolting upright and nearly toppling out of his seat.
“Settle down, Padfoot. Remus is not going to surprise a girl with a dragon.” James rolled his eyes, making Remus huff in exasperation. “Moony needs our help with something; pay attention.”
Sirius blinked, his eyes unfocused, until he looked between Remus and James. “What's going on?” he asked, shaking his head to fully wake up.
“Remus wants to surprise Y/n today; give him some ideas,” James urged, nudging Sirius with his elbow. “You’re good at this sort of thing.”
“Oh, right. I’m quite the charmer, aren’t I?” Sirius yawned.
“Whatever, just help me,” Remus sighed, rolling his eyes as he leaned closer to the two of them.
“How about flowers?” Sirius suggested, “Girls love flowers.”
“Duh, we know that,” James said, rolling his eyes. “But which flowers?”  
Sirius shrugged. “I don’t know. Just pick some nice ones.”
“Brilliant idea, really helpful,” Remus rolled his eyes. 
James groaned. “This is going to take some serious planning,” he muttered, shaking his head.
Over the course of the class, the three boys huddled together and began to think of ways to help Remus plan a surprise for you. Together, they came up with the perfect idea for the picnic by the lake.
1. James will get the food from the kitchen.
2. Sirius will get a blanket and tea candles for that romantic feel.
3. Peter’s going to get the flowers.
4. Remus, just be Remus.
Tumblr media
Later on, after class, the Marauders headed outside of the castle to start preparing for the surprise, leaving you none the wiser on what was going on behind the scenes. Throughout the day, Remus couldn’t keep the smile off his face, feeling the excitement build in his chest with each passing hour.
The sun began to set as evening approached, and students started to make their way back to their respective common rooms, some already getting ready to study in the library and some on their way to detention. When you reached your dorm, you found your friends waiting for you, already curious about how your day had gone.
“So, how was your day, Y/n?” Mary asked, a playful glint in her eyes.
“Yeah, what’d he say?” Marlene added, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.
You rolled your eyes at their teasing, but you couldn’t deny the warm feeling that bloomed in your chest at the thought of your time with Remus. “We just had a nice walk to class together; nothing too exciting,” you replied, trying to keep your voice nonchalant.
Lily and the others exchanged knowing looks, clearly not buying your casual tone. “Alright, well, we won’t pry….yet.” Lily smirked. “Make sure to come back to the common room once you're done with your walk. You have to tell us everything.”
“That’s assuming there’s anything to tell,” you chuckled, feeling a familiar warmth spread throughout your chest. With that, you made your way to get ready for your walk with Remus, excitement bubbling inside you. You quickly freshened up and changed into a comfortable yet cute outfit—a pale pink sweater and some white jeans—making sure to look presentable for your time with Remus.
You waved your friends goodbye as you left the dorm, already looking forward to spending time with Remus and getting to know him better. You walked down to the common room, only to be stopped by James.
“Hi, Y/n.”
“Hey, James,” you smiled. “Have you seen Remus?” 
 “Actually, Mr. Moony has sent me to fetch you, my fair maiden.” James grinned before taking an exaggerated bow in front of you.
“If you’d be so kind as to follow me.” James held out an arm with a flourish, which made you laugh and roll your eyes.
“Alright, show me the way, kind sir,” you giggled, taking his arm.
James led you through the corridors, making jokes along the way. The two of you stopped at the courtyard, and James then turned to you.
“Go down to the beech tree; Remus is waiting for you there.” James smiled, winking at you.
“Thanks, James,” you chuckled, before making your way through the courtyard and down to the lakeshore.
As you reached the spot where Remus was waiting, you couldn’t help but feel a shot of warmth in your chest yet again. Remus was standing there with a smile on his face and a bouquet of pink and yellow flowers in his hand.
“Hi, you look beautiful.” Remus’ smile widened, his cheeks turning pink as he offered you the flowers.
You had to fight back a smile as his compliment made your heart skip a beat. “Thank you, Remus,” you said with a shy smile, taking the flowers. “Everything looks really lovely.”
Your eyes fell on the setup that Remus had prepared—a blanket spread out on the grass, tea candles placed around, and a small picnic basket beside it.
“Did you do all this?” you asked, feeling genuinely touched.
“Not entirely,” Remus admitted, smiling sheepishly. “My friends helped me, but I wanted to do something special for you.”
“Thank you, Remus. This is really sweet,” you said, feeling warmth in your chest.
You sat down on the blanket, and Remus joined you. The two of you started to talk and get to know each other better as the sun began to set. The air was filled with laughter, chatter, and the sound of nature around you. It felt like time was slowing down, allowing both of you to enjoy the moment and each other’s company.
As the evening turned to night and the moon shone brightly in the velvet sky, Remus took a deep breath, feeling a sense of contentment and happiness wash over him. He couldn’t deny that there was something special about you—something that made him feel more alive than he had in a long time. And in that moment, as you talked and laughed under the moonlight, Remus couldn’t help but feel as if he had found someone who understood him, someone who made him feel like everything was right in the world. And in that moment, he knew that you were someone he wanted to hold onto, someone he wanted to be a part of his life.
You looked up, meeting Remus’ eyes, and felt a sense of connection that you had never experienced before. Looking into his warm and gentle brown eyes, you just felt safe, and you knew that this was the start of something special, something worth holding onto.
“Thank you for tonight, Remus,” you said, feeling a sense of contentment in your heart.
“It was my pleasure, Y/N; you deserve it and more. I had a great time with you,” Remus replied, his eyes holding a warmth that made your heart skip a beat. “I was wondering...”
“What is it?” 
“Would you like to go with me to Hogsmeade on the weekend?”
Blood rushed into your cheeks at his question. Remus just asked you out to Hogsmeade! “I’d love to, Remus.”
Remus’ smile widened, and his cheeks tinged pink. “Great. It’s a date?” 
You chuckled softly. “Yes, it’s a date.”
Tumblr media
As you both made your way back to the Gryffindor common room, the evening felt magical in a way that you couldn’t quite define. You stepped inside your dorm, and you were met with the squeals and teasing of your friends, who had clearly been waiting for your return.
“You’ve been gone for ages; you seemed to be having fun,” Marlene teased, nudging you playfully.
“Hey, stop it!” you laughed, playfully swatting her arm.
“It looks like someone had a good time,” Lily teased, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.
You shook your head at their teasing, but you couldn’t deny the smile that remained on your face. Tonight had been different and special, and you couldn’t wait to see what the future held.
As you sat on your bed with your friends, the warm feeling in your chest lingered, and for the first time in a long time, you felt like everything was going to be okay.
And as for Remus, as he made his way to his dormitory, a smile remained on his face. The special night with you felt like a dream, but he knew that it was just the start.
Maybe you were the one he had been waiting for—the one who could tame the heart of a werewolf—the one who could make him feel more alive than he had in a long time. And the thought of spending more time with you, getting to know you, and making new memories together filled him with hope and excitement.
He went to sleep that night with a contented heart and the belief that you were the one he had been searching for all this time, the one he could see himself falling for. And as he drifted into sleep, he let the thoughts and dreams of you soothe him to a good night’s rest. 
Who knew a game of seven minutes in heaven could make you feel like this?

As one of the Christmas presents, your Alpha promises to fulfill one of your fantasies, or introduce you to a kink you secretly wanted to try. What is it and how he's going about it? Does he surprise you with it? Or did you plan to make a special night of it?
Okay, not an alpha, but...
well...
I couldn't get this idea out of my head...
Fandom: Chris Evans Characters Title: Make Her Glow Characters/Pairings: soft dark!Mafia!Andy Barber x female!reader Word Count: 986
Content Warnings: bondage, established coerced marriage, breeding kink
Logistical Notes: I think technically this is ... going to be a collection now. Sequel to I'm Your Man and a moment from their honeymoon. I just can't resist this Andy (and neither can you, dear reader).
↠ Masterlist | Aspen's Ask Box | Field Guide to the Forest
Tumblr media
The domestic elements were incredibly important to Andy. He knew they were vital to building a happy, long-lasting relationship between husband and wife, and he wanted nothing less than that for both of you. Putting up the Christmas tree had been something he’d insisted on doing together, just the two of you, the day after Thanksgiving.
He’d driven the pair of you to the nicest tree lot, walked around holding your hand until he knew the two of you had found a tree you truly liked, then paid to have it delivered to your home after lunch. He had you direct the delivery men to put it exactly where you wanted it. He had helped you string it with lights, then decorate with garland and ornaments. You were still guarded – he had broken down many, but not all, of your walls, but it had been a good day.
But by far the most valuable thing from putting up the tree together had been the lights. He saw sheer, unadulterated delight shine through your eyes the first time they lit up. It was the passion he’d seen on your face so frequently during the first weeks he knew you – it’s what made him know he had to have you, and he loved seeing it again.
Each night, you had very easily let him hold you on the couch, all the other lights off, and sit together in the glow from the white lights of the tree. He had pulled so much more out of you each of those nights – memories, wants, dreams, worries.
He always knew you would work.
He knew you knew the two of your would work.
The soft glow of those lights had made you impossibly softer and warmer to him, and he fucking loved it.
But he hadn’t exploited that knowledge until tonight.
Having finally sent all the house guests home, you were turning off all the lights, and about to collapse onto the couch, but he intercepted you a step away from your destination, and tugged you gently upstairs. You knew not to fight him.
He knows you don’t want to fight him; you’re only holding onto small pieces of resisting him because he’s slowly been disarming every last piece of you, making you more and more vulnerable to becoming completely swept away by him.
He closes the bedroom door and then leads you to the bed. He slowly unzips your simple but beautiful party dress from behind, and you shrug it down your shoulders. He presses a kiss between your shoulder blades, and you can’t suppress a shiver. Then he unclasps your bra, and you let that fall to the floor, too. He slides a finger into the waistband of your lacey underwear on either side of your hips and pulls them gently down. You step out of them without direction.
He spanks you, just once, but it elicits the short, gasping moan he loves to draw from you.
“Up on the bed now,” he instructs.
“Yes, Andy,” your voice is soft, and you crawl up obediently.
“On your back in the middle of the mattress.”
As you move into place, you watch him, and he reaches for a box he left under the bed a few hours earlier.
Andy places the box on the bedside table, and first pulls out a thick, forest green satin ribbon.
He climbs up on the bed next to you. “Hold up your hands, wrists together for me.”
Despite everything else up to this point, he’s never physically bound you before.
Although he can see the evidence of your breathing speed up with the rise and fall of your chest, he’s incredibly pleased that you do exactly as he says, surrendering without a fuss. He wraps the ribbon around your wrists and forearms, then strokes your cheek. “Such a good girl for me.”
He moves back to the box, pulls out one end of the string, plugs it into the socket, and you gasp as a full string of white lights comes to life. Andy smiles and turns off the rest of the lights in the room.
Ten minutes later when he’s wrapped the lights around your arms – right over where the ribbons were first placed because he did want to protect your precious skin from being uncomfortable – and then bound you up to the headboard, where he strung the rest of the lights back and forth between the bedposts, and emerges naked from the large master closet, he fully appreciates the warm glow of the lights just as you have the lights from the tree. He more than gets it now.
Joining you once more on the bed, he runs his hands up your thighs, then guides them open and kneels between them.
“You’re so pretty like this, wife.”
You’re wet for him. Waiting for him.
“You want one more Christmas gift?” he asks, his eyes moving up your body to meet your eyes.
You let out a small, whimpered, “Yes,” and he smiles again. “Please,” you add.
“And I think it’s time we start really working on one more gift for me,” he says. He moves one hand to your hip and places the other solidly over your womb. “I’m done waiting to see you growing with my child, and it’s too perfect that you’re ovulating.”
Your eyes widen and your mouth opens just a little.
He smirks. “You think I really wouldn’t know something like that? Well, if you’re going to act dumb, I’ll just oblige and fuck you dumb. But, goddamn, you should know how perfect and beautiful you look for me just like this. Glowing under these lights? Perfection."
He leans down to kiss you. His lips move against yours, easily, he licks into your mouth, and you moan. He doesn't relent until you're breathless, and arching up beneath him.
"Now let’s make it so you glow for another reason.”

Hi, i want to request a remus x reader, where its a girls night before lily's wedding and they play a spicy truth or dare, where reader realises she needs to ask remus out.
tradition.
FIRST REQUEST SORRY THIS TOOK TIME
1.7k
Bachelorette parties were a time honored tradition where the bride-to-be wore heels that were too tall to be worn drunk and got legendarily plastered with about seven of her worst behaved friends. Lily Evans (soon to be Potter) was almost an exception, but Dorcas bought her these platform go-go boots and it felt rude not to wear them.
Lily assumed the event would be less of a nightmare if [Y/N] planned it, as Dorcas usually took things too far. This way, Lily could almost guarantee that there would be no Chip and Dale-type striper dressed as the left-winger chaser from Puddlemere United. [Y/N] was therefore the most convenient choice for Maid of Honour.
Carefully, the bridal party made their way out of the Three Broomsticks and hauled themselves up the hill to do the rest of the night in Godric’s Hollow. All of them were too far gone to apparate. Sirius had taken James and the boys who knows where for a Bachelor party so the girls could use the house that night. The ‘girls’ consisted of Lily and [Y/N], Dorcas Meadowes, Mary Macdonald, Marlene McKinnon, and Alice Fortesque; basically the contents of their dormitory at school. The seven hung off each other and giggled as old friends as they walked.
“Never thought you’d be the first of us!” Marlene cried in glee, shaking her sharply bobbed dark hair out of her face. “I can’t get over it. Simply.”
“Oh, come off it!” Lily groaned. She was awfully tired of hearing this same banter recycled day in and day out.
Dorcas laughed. “Well, yeah. Marls is right. You hated your poor bastard Potter, for, like, forever. I thought first in and out of the binding contract of marriage was to be Alice and Frankie for sure.”
The most sober player of the evening, Alice, sighed. “Sorry that we’re patient.”
[Y/N] let out a firm laugh, pulling Lily’s set of keys out of her pocket as the house entered their line of view. “Bold assumptions from both Dorcas and Marlene considering you both told me you were gonna marry Sirius Black when you were fifteen or something.” [Y/N] said. Her comment illicited silence from Dorcas and Marlene rampant giggled from Mary, Lily and Alice.
With their Godric’s Hollow destination reached, [Y/N] unlocked the door with some difficulty. The seven flooded inside. Before Mary could loudly announce how bad she had to piss again, [Y/N] asked: “I’ve got a quick question ‘bout Black, actually,” everyone seemed very interested because everyone [Y/N] knew was in love with Sirius Black - unfortunately. “How many of you’v’fucked him? Just… Show off hands.”
Many groans of malcontent echoed through the room. Dorcas and Marlene raised their hands without hesitation, but instead with a bit of regret. Mary’s hand slowly went up with a sigh. Lily and Alice exchanged some knowing looks but both resisted a comment. “Bloody hell, ladies. Is he actually packin’ or something? He’s not that tall, so… Nice hair, but if he weren’t one of my mates, I’d just say he’s average. How does he keep pulling like this?” [Y/N] asked incredulously.
As Mary left finally to piss, Marlene bit back at [Y/N]. “Honestly, I think he’s just charming. Like, something about the smile, the leather jacket. Plus, he’s so fuckin’… noble, like. Yeah?”
“Noble? A guy’s a better fuck ‘cause he’s ‘noble?’” [Y/N] sighed.
“You know what I mean.” Marlene said and Dorcas nodded in agreement.
Dorcas piped up. “Well, [Y/N]. You may be the next among us. Ain’t the Maid of Honour and the… What’s it called? Man of Honour—“
“—Best Man.” Alice correct, pouring herself a sipper of firewhiskey.
“Ain’t the Maid of Honour and the Best Man meant to fuck? After the wedding?” Dorcas finished.
[Y/N]’s eyes widened. “No. Superstition. Clearly. I… Right, Lily?”
Lily’s playful grin widened as she pulled off her go-go boots and tossed her auburn hair into a messy bun. “Well, seeing as neither of you have a real date, then have at it. It’s tradition.”
“That’s vile. You’re vile.”
Mary walked back in from the bathroom. “Who’s vile?”
“Lily. Or Sirius. Can’t remember. Maybe both.” Marlene clarified.
“Ah, he is ‘packing,’ by the way. If nobody’s said that yet.”
[Y/N] was tired of everyone pushing her buttons because she had been single for a while. Single, yes. Desperate enough to shag Sirius Black, no. “Fabian Prewett was not worth all the trouble to keep that relationship going just to have a date to your wedding.” She said.
“He was so pretty!” Dorcas remarked, a drunken slur apparent in her voice.
“Yeah, and he was also a prick. Anyway, there’s no sense in finding someone with, like, days til the wedding.”
Lily sighed loudly. She knew what she was doing. It was that sort of sigh that baited someone to ask why one was sighing.
“What?” [Y/N] asked, scoffing.
“Nothing. It’s nothing.”
Strained silence as all the other girls leaned into listen. “Oh, I’m sure. What’s the problem here?”
“James said one of his boys also doesn’t have a date to the—“ Lily started.
“You already implied Sirius—“
“Remus. Rem doesn’t have anyone.”
A longer, more strained silence.
Marlene gasped. “Holy fuckin’ shit. You should finally ask Remus out.”
“Finally? What do you mean finally? He’s my best mate.” [Y/N] said incredulously.
The other girls shared groans of indignation or shouts of surprise. “Dear, every boy you’ve ever been out with looks like a cheap knock-off of Loony Loopy Lupin. You have to have noticed.” Marlene pointed out.
“Don’t call him that!” Lily butted in.
“Don’t call him that. He doesn’t like it. And simply, I don’t think that’s true. About the boy thing.” [Y/N] insisted.
“Amos Diggory.” Mary said clearly. Amos had been her very first boyfriend. [Y/N] finally said yes to his obvious advances after Remus took a Slytherin girl his friends all hated to Hogsmeade. Amos had then been the same height and build as Remus, with those aggressively kind eyes. However, he was nothing like Lupin in any other way.
“They’re both tall with brown hair. So’s James for that matter—“
“Amos is just the polite version of Lupin. They’re practically the same bloke.” Mary finished he brutal comment and strolled into the kitchen.
“Tony Dolohov—“ Lily pointed out. Antonin Dolohov had been a rebound repeated hookup after Amos had broken up with [Y/N] since he thought she was too ‘disinterested’ in him. It was familiar commentary that Remus and Dolohov looked similar. They were constantly mistaken for the other from the back in school, despite being completely different as people.
“Was a fling!”
“Evil Lupin…” Dorcas sighed.
[Y/N] was ready for another topic of conversation. “So what? I like tall brunette guys from the countryside. Sue me. Fabian Prewett was from out there too, but he was completely—“
“Mm… Yes. Redheaded, pretentious Lupin.” Dorcas grinned tempestuously.
Mary gasped. “That implies our Lupin isn’t pretentious!”
Alice cleared her throat amidst [Y/N] evident shame and irritation. “If you don’t mind my saying, [Y/N], you’ve been down for that boy since you were about fourteen. Lupin, I mean.”
[Y/N] watched Lily nod drunkenly at wise old Alice’s words. “Call him! Call him right now!”
“Fuck you! No!”
Before [Y/N] could do anything else, Marlene began leading a chant of “call him!” with others shouting such fare as “come on, don’t ruin Lily’s party!” That was when she had to pick up the phone, just to get it to stop.
She stood there, listening to the dial tone hum. “Shit. What number am I ringing? He’s not… He’s with James.”
Lily whipped out her wand from her back pocket and wordlessly summoned a number jotted down on a takeaway menu from who knows where in the kitchen. Lily dictated the number to [Y/N], just to make sure she would actually make the call.
“‘Llo?” Sirius Black slurred on the other line. [Y/N] had often heard him wasted, but he was gone-gone tonight. He spoke too loudly into the receiver. After multiple semesters of Muggle Studies, he still hasn’t mastered the telephone.
“Black, it’s [Y/N].”
“Hey there, love,” Sirius suddenly sounded on edge. The world was a scary place these days and such a call was scary to get this late during a bachelor party. [Y/N] thought he sounded more sober, or tried, after she announced herself. “‘S everything okay…?”
“Hm? Yeah, no. All’ve us are fine. Is Lupin there?”
“What you want with Lupin?” Sirius inquired, his tone sounding much more typical of a drunk Sirius Black.
[Y/N] looked over her shoulder at the expectant faces of the girls and an encouraging thumbs up from Alice. “Uh, drinking game, or something. Put him on. Please.”
Sirius sounded like he dropped the receiver away from his face and called something like “Oi Moony, there’s a foxy bird on the phone for you!” into the room near him. After some shuffling and unintelligible grumbling, Remus’s voice came through on the phone.
“Remus Lupin on,” he said too clearly. The kind of clearness of tone one had when stoned out of their mind and attempting to cover it up. But at least he knew how to use a phone. “Who’s speaking?”
“Lupin, it’s me. It’s [Y/N]. Everything’s fine.”
“Oh. Hi?”
“Yeah, hi. All the boy’s watching you right now?”
“Uh,” a pause. “No, yeah. All of ‘em.”
“Same here. Holding a wand to my chest, basically. You still don’t have a date to the wedding, right?”
A longer pause. “Hm? To the wedding, you said?” He swallowed. Dry mouth from nerves or smoking too much, maybe. “No.”
“Right. Nor have I. Wanna go with me? Since we already both, like, have to go? Figured it’d be fun to go with you,” [Y/N] dropped her voice to a whisper. “Like, go-with-me-go-with-me. Real deal date.”
Too long of a pause.
“Remus? You there?”
“Yeah. Yeah! Sure, I’m here, sure. Also, like, yeah, sure. I mean, yeah. I’ll go with you. If you want, I mean. Yeah.”
[Y/N] sighed in relief. “Brilliant. Pop by before and get me. We’ll go together. Ta.”
With that, she hung up.
“Ta?” Dorcas said dramatically. “Ta? You ask the man out and you close with fuckin’ ‘ta?’”

Hidden Messages in Foreign Languages
Summary: Regulus tells the reader how he feels but it's all in french much to her frustration.
Pairings: Regulus Black x Reader
Warnings: Fluff
Tumblr media
Y/N balanced her books precariously in her arms as she walked to the Charms classroom. She should've known better than to try and study between classes but with NEWTs so close she'd wanted to get in as much studying as she could.
She turned the corner to the doorway when she collided with something solid. Her foot slipped and her books fell out of her arms. She braced herself to hit the ground but two strong arms wrapped themselves around her waist.
"Are you alright?" A masculine voice asked her worriedly.
She looked up into a pair of grey eyes that belonged to none other than Regulus Black. The very same, Regulus Black that she'd thought was way too good looking to be legal.
He was wearing a woodsy cologne that made her dizzy, her face had been in his chest when he'd caught her and she'd gotten a full breath of it from his soft robes.
"Yes, thanks for keeping me on my feet," she told him with a forced laugh. She knew that she had to be blushing bright red by this point.
He shook his head and released her, "It was no problem."
His eyes followed her as she bent to pick up the books that she'd dropped. She looked them over for damages and was relieved when she couldn't find any on them.
He extended a hand to her in aid and she grabbed it as she stood up. He kept his grip on her hand for a moment before releasing it and looking at her, eyes gleaming.
"What is it?" She asked.
He shrugged, "Tu es tout simplement la plus belle femme que j'aie jamais vue."
Y/N's head turned slightly to the side, "I don't know what that means."
"I know," he said, smiling as he turned and left her standing in the doorway.
She watched his retreating form before disappearing into the Charm's classroom.
-
Y/N laughed as she mixed her milk into her tea.
"I'm serious, Y/N! All I have to do is convince her that we're destined to be together," Barty told her as he stared dreamily at the blonde girl seated further down the table.
"I have complete faith in you," she told him.
He opened his mouth to continue but was inturrupted by the quidditch team taking their seats around them.
"Rosier! How was practice?" Barty asked, shoving his friend who fell into the seat next to him.
"It would've been better if Black hadn't been so keen on dragging us through every problem with the last match," Evan replied with a mock-glare toward his best friend who had sat down next to Y/N.
Regulus shrugged, "How are we supposed to win if everytime we have a longer practice everyone can't handle it."
Y/N nodded, "He makes a good point."
Evan turned to look at her, "You would choose his side over mine?"
Y/N's eyes flickered between the three of them, "Aren't you all on the same side?"
Barty nodded in agreement and Y/N turned to meet Regulus gaze that had turned warm on her face.
"Am I wrong?" She asked.
Regulus smirked, "Tes yeux petillent comme les etoiles et je me sens enchante par eux."
She shook her head at him, "You know I don't speak french."
His smirk grew bigger, "That's not my fault."
Y/N ignored him and turned to the two people across from them who were looking at Regulus with wide eyes.
She focused on Evan, "You know what he said, don't you?"
He nodded and Barty avoided her eye contact.
She started to ask for a translation but was inturrupted by Regulus.
"If you tell her what I said, I'll make today's practice look like a warm-up," his voice didn't waver in his threat.
Evan's eyes widened, "Sorry Y/N."
-
The class murmured restlessly as the wardrobe stood alone in the middle of the room.
The DADA professor for this year paced quietly in front of it as he let the muttering grow just a bit louder.
"Who can tell me what a boggart is?" He asked, effectively silencing any conversation.
Evan raised his hand, "A boggart is a shape-shifter that takes on the charcteristics of the observer's worst fears."
"Excellent! 5 points to Slytherin," his loud voice echoed.
Y/N shared an uneasy look with Pandora who was seated next to her. Neither of them seemed to like where this was headed.
"Can anyone tell me the spell that is used for this creature?"
A ravenclaw boy raised his hand this time, "Riddikulus."
"Precisely! Take 5 points for Ravenclaw. Now, today all of you will have your own chance to practice your defense against a boggart. What I'll have you do is form a line in front of this wardrobe and we'll begin," he moved to stand in front of the wardrobe with his fingers on the knob to pull it open.
Y/N followed Pandora to the middle of the room, where Regulus, Barty and Evan were all standing. Any remaining laughter from the classroom was void as each individual was filled with dread at the idea of their worst fear.
The first person to go up was a ravenclaw girl who stood before the wardrobe with confidence. The professor nodded to her and then threw the door open. A grey smoke poured out of it as it began to change rapidly through different forms.
It seemed to finally settle on the form of a giant snake. The girl paled but quickly cast the spell and it changed into a piece of rope. Nobody seemed to laugh except for the professor.
"Amazing! Who's next?"
The boy in Slytherin who stood behind her looked increasingly unsure of himself as the professor moved closer to the wardrobe.
The rope quickly transformed into a dark, cold dementor. Trails of ice climbed up the sides of desks and out towards where the students were standing.
Feeding off of the fear of everyone the dementor tripled and the sensation of increasing despair filled Y/N from the inside. She stepped back and found her back pressed against Regulus' chest. His arm came around her protectively and she leaned back into the warmth that seemed to be emitting from him.
"Je suis juste la, ma cherie. Je ne laisserai rien de mal t'arriver," he whispered in her ear.
She couldn't find it in herself to care about asking what he'd said to her. Instead, she turned in his arms and hid her face in his shoulder. His arms wrapped around her in a tight embrace, shielding her from the darkness surrounding them.
"Riddikulus," the professor shouted.
-
Y/N sat next to Regulus on the grass by the Black Lake. Regulus was leaning against a tree and she was next to him on her stomach reading a book.
She giggled as the protagonist made a flirty comment towards their love interest.
"Je trouve qu'il est impossible de se concentrer quand tu es la," his head fell back to rest on the tree. "C'est comme si votre personnalite etait trop parfaite et ne pouvait pas etre contenue dans votre corps."
She looked up at him, "What did you say?"
"Nothing important," he said, shrugging.
Y/N narrowed her eyes at him, "I don't believe you."
Regulus smiled brilliantly at her, "You shouldn't."
-
Regulus was studying in the library with his head bent low to study the potions book that he needed to complete his essay.
Y/N dragged Evan over to the table, ignoring his protests which were loud enough that Regulus looked up in confusion at the noise. His brows shot up at the scene in front of him.
"Y/N?" He asked.
She took a deep breath, "Sortirais-tu avec moi?"
She quickly turned to Evan, "Did I say it right?"
"Oui, Vous l'avez dit correctement," Regulus told her.
She turned to Evan who huffed, "He said that you said it correctly."
Y/N nodded, "Oh, that's good. What about-"
"Oui, j'aimerais beaucoup vous inviter a diner," Regulus told her with a wink, "I would love to go out with you, Mon Amour."
Y/N smiled at him as her cheeks filled in with a rosy blush.
"Finally!" Evan groaned, "Now we can all stop listening to you tell her how pretty she is all the time."
Y/N turned to Regulus who was blushing madly, "That's what you were saying?"
"I'm going to bloody kill you, Rosier."

Hush - William Afton x Female Reader
Chapter 2
Word Count - 3k

Fanart used with permission @Alex_zlo on X and Instagram
Tumblr media
William Afton can’t go home like this.
Not with hands that are shaking, stained…
So much of it. Why was there so much from such a small body?
A sickly shade of pink, the first patters of rain diluting the crimson on his fingers.
Warm, such heat, cold air…
He manages to get back in the car, fumbling for the keys he’d just had seconds before. He’s not thinking clearly, he’d put them back in a pocket after unlocking the door. Which pocket, pants or jacket or…?
There. The metal is slippery, everything sliding from his slickened grasp.
The rainwater in his eyes or tears or…?
He’d just narrowly escaped the worst of the deluge.
There’s an umbrella tucked into the molded pocket built into the lower frame of the car door, along with a Matchbox car—Michael’s or Evan’s, he couldn’t say—some forgotten toy belonging to one of his sons lodged there.
The restaurant owner forces his hands to cooperate. Ignition started. Hands on wheel. Destination?
The nearby bar. Already filling up with patrons. But no one pays the murderer any mind, engrossed in alcohol, in conversation as he enters, the umbrella now useless, busted, that sudden gust of wind had come from nowhere, a last breath of vengeance from an unseen spirit.
Haunted, now, or…?
He’d only intended on ducking quickly inside the restroom, hands shoved into pockets to conceal what he’d just done until he reaches the sink, grateful that no one is there to see. He scrubs until the skin is red and feels raw.
Only there to wash up, but a drink would steady him, he thinks, asking the bartender to toss the ruined remains of the umbrella into the trash, requesting a glass of whiskey. His hands are clenched into fists, trembling, and he wills them to relax, unfold, be still. He glances back towards the glass front entrance. The storm’s fury was increasing. There’d be no escaping it next time. He’d have to go back out into it, and then, and then…
Afton doesn’t know. He takes a large swallow of his drink, considering his next move. The depleted glass refilled. Better now. Nerves soothed a bit. Hands steadier. The killer becomes aware of the weight of someone looking at him. Someone that knows him? Will he be forced to make small talk, try to explain…
Had he been discovered?
Relief floods through him. No. It’s a young woman. A stranger. Dripping wet, the unusual downpour’s latest victim. His eyes drop back to his drink. He toys with the glass, looking into the depths of the liquid there as if it could divulge secrets, help him plot and plan his next course of action.
His eyes focus on you again. Contemplating. Considering.
You’re walking towards him.
***
You’re back in the bar.
Feeling foolish but unable to help yourself. Just out for a drink, nothing wrong with that, right? It’s been a couple of weeks. The sting of the breakup lessening.
You’re not going to let yourself feel disappointed that William is not present.
That’s your real reason for coming back, of course. And it’s absurd. Even if he had been present, it had surely been a one time thing. Two strangers comforting each other at random. Better than a relationship because it had none of the complications that came with it. No obligations. No commitment. Just enjoying each other and then moving on.
You’re not moving on.
This has rebound all over it. You should stop thinking about him. But you don’t. At random moments while you’re working. While you’re packing up your ex’s things. You’d left a message for him to come get them while you’re out. You don’t want to see him ever again.
This new man, though. Those eyes. The way his hands and his mouth felt. Being inside of you. Reckless, crazy. But good. So good.
The door opens and your head swivels rapidly. It’s him. Tall, dark, and handsome. Work clothes again. Jacket today. Dress coat. It looks good on him. Pausing when he sees you. A little surprised, maybe, the long lashes lifting, an arc of white above the steel colored irises. Then pleased. A little smirk on his features. He sits beside you.
“Hi,” you greet him softly.
“Hi. How’s everything going?”
You inhale and exhale deeply. “It’s going okay. Got my ex’s stuff out of my apartment.”
“Good.”
“What about you?” Margarita today. Sour. A little shiver when it goes down. “How’s work?”
“Busy. But fine. Everything’s fine.” William rests an elbow on the counter, his head propped on his fist. Watching you. Sliding your drink over and taking a sip. Well, I mean why not, right? It’s not like you haven’t swapped saliva before. “This is terrible.”
“They’re kind of gross. But they get you tipsy pretty easy.”
“Are you trying to get drunk again?”
“I don’t know. Maybe. I didn’t come here for—”
“—Why are you back here?” His eyes are glittering. He knows. He absolutely fucking knows and he’s teasing you. Enjoying this.
“Why are you?” You challenge, taking your drink back and gulping down another swallow.
“I asked you first.”
You run your fingers over the stem of the glass. “Looking for you,” you admit, darting a quick glance at him through your lashes.
“What if I didn’t show? What would you have done then?”
You shrug. “I don’t know. Come back a different night, maybe.”
“Hmmm.” He hums thoughtfully.
“You’re in a good mood tonight.”
“What makes you say that?”
“You look…satisfied.”
“Not completely satisfied yet,” he murmurs, and another shiver runs through you, this one not fueled by the alcohol you’ve imbibed, but anticipation. He’s flirting. He’s interested in another dalliance. “If you want to enjoy a tequila properly, you should be doing shots. Salt, lime wedges, the whole bit.”
You consider the small amount of liquid left in the Magarita glass. Only your first. Why not get a little intoxicated?
“Alright.”
He straightens, signaling the bartender. You’ve never done shots before, but you got the gist of it. You wait for the older man to take the lead. Watching as he licks the curled crevice of his hand between his thumb and index finger, sprinkling a pinch of salt that adheres to the damp skin. Meeting your eyes when his tongue laps that salted patch, then throwing back the shot quickly, followed by a bite into a slice of lime and that bemused smirk appears again. Challenging you. Well, fuck. It’s on.
You repeat the process. Strong. You struggle not to cough, wincing a little.
“Good girl. You’ve got this.”
Another round for you both. Another. You’re getting accustomed to it. Your hand finds its way onto his thigh at some point. Not exactly discreet, but you’re kind of past the point of caring. You’re starting to lose count of what shot you're on. Five, maybe? Six. Definitely six. He grabs your hand and laps at it before sprinkling the salt. You return the gesture, diverting your attention to his thumb, sucking the pad gently, watching him through lidded eyes.
“Your place?”
No quickie in the car? Interesting. “Yeah.”
“I’ll call a cab.”
William lends you support when you slide from the barstool, leaving you clutching the counter heavily to make the call on the pay phone. You should have eaten something. Lunch was a long time ago. Or not done so many shots. Or…
He’s back. Looking a touch concerned. “You feeling okay?”
“I feel…great.” You frown. “How come you still look sober? Are you buzzed at all?”
“Quite. I’m better at concealing it, that’s all.”
He leads you outdoors. The cool air hits you sharply before you’re in the back seat of the taxi. You give the driver your address. William’s hand clutches yours. His left hand. No wedding band today.
“You knew I was going to be there tonight,” you murmur.
He doesn’t answer.
***
Your ex’s stuff is gone when you get back to your apartment.
You heave a sigh of relief because honestly, that would have been beyond awkward to have him here with your new lover in tow.
You’re suddenly feeling shy. Awkward. After offering to take your companion’s coat and hanging his beside yours, your shoes and his tucked neatly side by side on the mat before the front door, you don’t know what to do next.
William is standing in the living room. Surveying your living space. “Nice couch.”
“My ex picked that out.” You scowl at the black leather furniture.
“I take it back. It’s absolutely dreadful.”
“See, now that’s why you and I get along so well.” He smirks. You suddenly remember the etiquette of having a guest over. “Did you want something to drink, a glass of water or…”
“Just you.”
Oh. A little sound you’re not even certain you manage to make. Perhaps just lingering in the depths of your mind when he steps towards you, seating his hand on the side of your neck, bending to kiss your mouth. Once. Twice. His tongue touches yours and you push against him, guiding him towards the nearest available surface. That damn couch. Well, might as well create some good new memories on it.
He sits and you climb on his lap. Hot. It’s hot in here, isn’t it? You should turn the heat down. The alcohol. Dilating your vessels. Bringing heat to the surface. William’s mouth is fire. Wet. Your fingers in his hair. It had been fun that night in the car, the frenzied rush at each other’s bodies within that confined space, but you like this location even more. Taking your time. His hands rub your back, your buttocks. You jerk the leather strap of his belt free from the buckle, sucking his bottom lip. Caressing his erection through the layer of briefs beneath the surrendering front of his trousers.
“I’m glad to see the alcohol didn’t affect this any,” you murmur appreciatively, teasing the hardened flesh, letting the tips of your nails drag over the fabric covering his cock. There’s a haze of arousal mingling with your intoxication now, a pleasant sensation tingling in your extremities as you ease yourself down to kneel on the carpet between his legs.
“You’re breaking the rule. Ladies first, remember?” He watches you pull the waistband of his underwear down, revealing the flushed sex beneath, his hips sliding forward a bit as he relaxes that long body of his, the new angle bringing him closer to the edge of the couch.
“We can make an exception just this once, can’t we?” You grin before you lean forward to lap at the head of his dick. Clean taste, faint soap. Light musk. Something a little salted leaking from the tip. It reminds you of doing the shots earlier. Your mouth engulfs the end, stretching your lips, sliding down part way. Your nails dig into his thighs. His breath hitches.
A car horn outside. You hate living in the city. You’re ex’s idea. You don’t want to think about him. You shove the man from the bar’s cock down your throat, holding it in place. His long fingers nestle in your hair. Your head lifts, thick saliva coating his erection. You wrap your fingers around the shaft and stroke up and down, massaging the frenulum, curling over the domed tip with each pass, alternating with more head bobs, sucking, sliding. His hips lift to meet your mouth, the hand curled over your head pulling you closer. Still unhurried, lazily fucking your mouth, the pace and depth varying. You gag and gasp for air and your eyes meet his. Those blown pupils an abyss. “Bedroom,” he says, and you push yourself to your feet, guiding him there, the loosened metal belt buckle jingling with each step, one hand clutching the waist of his pants to keep them in place as he follows you. “Off.” Another one word instruction that you obey, removing the blazer he tugs at, his fingers assisting you in pulling the blouse overhead, sliding underneath your bra straps while you unhook the back. You’re wearing pants today, the garment roughly dragged down over your hips along with your panties. He’s getting more impatient, pushing you back onto the bed before you have a chance to return the favor of divesting him of his clothing.
William grabs one of the pillows from beneath the comforter at the head of the bed, curling an arm around your legs and lifting you so he can slide the cushion underneath your buttocks. His hands part your thighs, his lips grazing the inside of one knee before he descends to kiss the sensitive place between your legs.
You’d had a sneaking suspicion that wicked tongue of his would be ideal for licking pussy and oh, you were so right. It curls around that bundle of nerve endings, flicking in firm, rapid strokes, building the pleasure and then backing away, sliding through the pink petals, teasing your entrance, kisses pressed in the crease of your groin, your mound, over your clit, sucking, teasing, leaving you whimpering and gasping. One of those large hands of his is splayed over your lower abdomen, applying pressure, stretching your pussy upward so he can perfectly access that throbbing pearl. You’re on the precipice of orgasm, pushed forward and then dragged back, a delicious dance between the two as he prolongs the sensation. Careening forward abruptly and you’re on the brink again, then the fury of his tongue lessens, gifting gentle taps, soft kisses.
“William…”
His mouth latches over your pussy. Rough again. Demanding. The pressure in your core builds. His tongue is relentless. Your hips arch up, mashing you against his face. There. You’re there. Your breath coming in quick, shallow pants. Gasping his name over and over. Your nails scrape his scalp.
The older man doesn’t give you time to recover. His body is already moving, climbing over yours. Shoving your legs back, his cock piercing your entrance. You gasp again. His torso drops down, hips rolling against you, mouth on yours.
You taste your juices all over his lips, his chin, his cheeks, his tongue. A hint of roughness along his jaw, the start of new growth of facial hair this late in the day. He’s buried in you. The languid way he’s fucked your mouth earlier forgotten. Sharp slaps of sound as his dick penetrates your cunt while his hands roughly knead your breasts. You wish he wasn’t still dressed, wish you could see his body. Touch it like he was caressing yours. You reach for a button of his shirt and he grabs your hand, pinning your wrist down. Repeating the process for the other. You’re trapped beneath him as he pummels you. That thick, long prick of his filling you, hitting you just right. His face hovers above yours. Watching you with those dark eyes. Still smudged underneath. A permanent fixture, perhaps, irregardless of the amount of sleep he got. His breath hot against your lips. You let saliva pool in your mouth, offering it up on your outstretched tongue that he sucks on greedily. You flex the walls of your canal, massaging him. Every part of you is throbbing, tingling, a post climax feeling that still hasn’t dissipated. Your pelvis matches his rhythm, your bodies rocking together. Perfectly in sync. He relaxes his grip on your wrists, his fingers slotting between yours. You feel him shudder. An echoing answer as your pussy milks his erection. He moans against your mouth. Spurts of hot liquid fill you.
William withdraws and flops beside you. You shift onto your side and he lifts an arm, allowing you to rest your head on his chest, that same limb now draped over you, fingers absently stroking your bare skin. You listen to the rapid heartbeat deescalate, the gasped breaths gradually deepening, their frequency decreasing. You still need to pick up your car. Get your clothes ready for work in the morning. Maybe you should just call out. There was no way you wouldn’t be hungover.
“Shower with me?” You offer, murmuring it against his chest.
“Another time. If you don’t mind I’ll use the restroom. Wash up…”
“Mmm-hmm. There’s a spare toothbrush in the medicine cabinet.” You pause. “I had fun.”
“Good.”
Your head lifts as you raise your torso, shifting into a sitting position, looking down at the dark haired man. “Am I going to see you again?” It sounds needy in your ears. You wish it didn’t. You’d meant it to be more of a playful invitation.
“Very likely.”
“Very likely, hmm?” You comb through the errant tresses falling across his forehead. Think about him going back out into the rain just to kiss you goodbye last time. The start to this causal affair.
You haven’t had to share the narrow space in front of the bathroom sink for awhile now. William takes up so much room, those long arms of his jostling and colliding with yours. You like watching him get ready. There’s something pleasing about the movements of those deft fingers as he restores order. You impulsively grab the lapel of his suit jacket before he has a chance to rinse the toothbrush you’ve lent him, kissing the mouth that’s layered with mint and the persistent flavor of you just beneath it.
Back behind the bar, it’s time to part ways. He’s walked you to your car. Said goodnight, imploring you to drive home safely. Still standing beside you. Your lips part to speak. He captures them and whatever words you’d been about to conjure scatter. Then he’s gone, another dark shape lost in nighttime shadows.

Hello, I've been reading your fics since I found them recently and I love your writing sm!! I've been wanting to request some smut for AJ Campos, maybe with a strap, possibly during that track race where instead of Paige, AJ is rooming with reader instead at the hotel
Watch You Sleep
AJ Campos x fem!reader
Warnings: MDNI, smut. Oral, fingering, toy use, pet names. Coarse language, drinking
In which reader’s had a lack of sleep lately and when finally alone with her in a room at an away meet, AJ gets creative
“Are you nervous?” AJ asks you quietly, a hand on your thigh.
“Coach says I’d better perform better today otherwise we can say goodbye to placing. How’d Paige get better than me?” You were looking out the window while the bus was driving to the destination.
“Excuse me?” She turned around, startling you.
“I was just saying how you’ve become better than I am at track. Maybe I should quit.”
“What? Ay, no, no, no.” Dylan chimed in, “You love track.”
“Things change, Dylan.” You exhaled harshly.
“Oh.” Paige’s face fell.
“Yeah, oh.” You snapped, “I haven’t been able to sleep in over a week. I cannot wait for this to be over. I’ve got other things to worry about.”
“Like what?”
“Are we not in the same classes, Evans? We have two essays due in two weeks.”
You wished Paige wasn’t sitting so close by…just a couple days ago, she asked AJ out right in front of you.
AJ looked at you, concerned. “Okay, you guys.” AJ shooed them away, “Return to your own conversation.”
For the rest of the drive, you laid your head on AJ’s shoulder while eating the bag of gummy bears that you brought along. And all throughout the ride, you kept feeling eyes on you. And not from AJ- Paige. You looked away, staring out the window now.
“Girl, what the fuck are you doing? Stop being creepy.” Dylan huffed.
Once at the hotel, all the students started pairing up with their roommates according to Coach Murray’s list and went to their rooms. And you? You were supposed to be with Gabi but AJ asked to swap. “Thanks, Gabs.”
“No worries.” Gabi smiled.
AJ quickly takes you into the room, shutting and locking the door behind yourselves, “Are we going to the party?”
“Yes.” AJ decided, “They would definitely play a drinking game and it would be a great way to make it clear to Paige that I’m not interested,”
“Isn’t it random? Like, don’t they just draw phones out of a pile or something?”
“I was thinking more like we…get tipsy and just kiss in front of her.” AJ chuckles. You snorted, “Please. Knowing how fucking gutsy she is, she might actually shove me to the ground. Then, she’d kiss you.”
“There’ll be witnesses.” AJ points out.
“Yeah, a bunch of drunk teens staying up past lights out is real reliable.” You laughed.
“Then we should just…post something? Announce we’re together?” AJ stifles a laugh.
You shrug, “I dunno.”
“We don’t have to go to that party, you know?” She says, “I would honestly much rather just spend some time alone with you.”
“Oh, yeah? And do what?” You ask. “Never mind, we’ll go to their ‘party’ first. You’re right- it’s the perfect place to let her know. There are other students around- so if she pulls any crazy shit? Witnesses.”
After unpacking, you and AJ decided to head out for dinner at the diner down the block. “God, I’m so tired. Why is she everywhere?”
“Tired, tired or because-” AJ says, but you cut her off.
“Both.” You deadpan. “Let’s go somewhere else.”
“Okay.” She shrugged, the two of you went further down the block to a pizza place. But not before Paige saw you and AJ leaving- the girl did not look happy.
————
Later that night, you and AJ were in Stacey’s room to party with the rest of the team. “Oh, good. You guys are here!” Stacey gasped, “Come in, come in.”
The kicked the night right off with ‘seven minutes in the hotel bathroom’. The rounds went by rapidly and you weren’t even just a little bit hopeful that you and AJ’s phones would get drawn out of the pillow case for a round together. “y/n, you’re up.” Dylan showed your phone to the group. You looked at him then at Paige who was beside him. “Aaaand, AJ, this is your phone, right? Oh, yup. That’s y/n’s face right there. You’re up- chop chop.” The group started chattering about how surprised they were that AJ had been seeing someone all this time. Contented, you grabbed AJ’s hand, stood up and got shoved into the bathroom by Dylan and Stacey. “Timer starts once the door closes!” Dylan exclaimed.
“Did you see that look on her face?” AJ laughs, grabbing your face to kiss you.
You nod, “Oh, we’re doing that here?” You broke away from the kiss briefly.
“Of course- we’re gonna really give them a show.” AJ grins.
“Oh, hell no.” You gasped, “I am not going to purposely-” And just like that, your train of thought was gone as she kisses you even deeper, her lips trailing down your jaw and to your neck which easily draws out a moan. AJ chuckles, her breath tickles your neck making you squirm.
“To be fair she’s been purposely being a little bitch to you.” AJ raised a brow, “I doubt she couldn’t tell we have something going on at least.”
“Oh, just shut up and kiss me.” You exhaled, your hands began roaming her back, but she lifts you up to sit on the countertop. Without even taking your shorts off, she pushes the fabric of it, and your underwear aside, “Do you feel ready?”
“What?” You asked, confused for a second, “Yeah. Sure.”
AJ dips a finger into your folds, gliding it up and down, proving your point, “Of course you are.” Pushing it easily into your entrance, she quickly gains a momentum, not wanting to waste a single second of this quote-unquote ‘mandated’ make-out time. She grins, licking her lips as she watches your face contort, “Baby, you’re acting like I don’t eat you out every other night.” That smirk on your face made you feel you didn’t know what to do with yourself, feeling a strangled yelp in your throat.
“Now you get shy?” She caresses your cheek with her free hand, her fingers ram into you to force a moan out of your mouth. Successfully.
“Fuck!” You whispered-shouted into her ear, “Fuck you. Oh, God.”
“Feisty.” She bit down on your neck, and you whimpered. AJ removes her fingers from you and started to kiss your face again.
“Time’s up! Get outta there.” Stacey knocks.
“You wanna go back?” AJ asks, tucking some hair behind your ear.
“Definitely.” You gave her one last kiss before straightening yourself up quickly then swung the door open.
“We’re gonna- go.” AJ stood behind you, a hand on your shoulder. “Message received. Good night- maybe you can finally get some sleep, y/n.” Dylan commented, earning a smack from his girlfriend. “Well, it’s true- she’s barely been sleeping lately.” Dylan reasoned.
“Good night, guys.” Stacey waved.
————
“Give me a minute- I just gotta get some from my bag.” She tells you while you plopped down on the bed. “Okay.” You responded while lying down. “They’re right- you haven’t been getting any good sleep recently.” AJ spoke up. “Yeah, well? I’ve been too stressed about performing well at the meet tomorrow.”
“It’s at 2pm- so we have plenty of time to get you some sleep.” She says, “Also- this might help.”
“What- oh, jesus fucking christ. How did you get that damn thing- okay, you know what? I’m not even gonna ask.” You eyes widened in shock when you turned onto your side and saw AJ putting on that harness.
“Thought you might need more to actually tire you out. And you’d probably wake up refreshed if you get some uninterrupted sleep- so you could actually perform better than Paige does.” She shrugs nonchalantly- as if she wasn’t going to impale you in the matter of minutes. “Think you can help yourself onto it?”
Her question snaps you out of your trance, “Okay.”
She chuckles, “If you say so.” AJ then laid down, waiting for you to straddle her. “Face me, okay?” You didn’t say anything else but just followed her order, legs bracketing either side of her as you knelt and positioned yourself to ease that shaft inside. AJ reflexively grabs your hips, giving you the support. “You okay, baby?” She watches you closely to make sure you weren’t in pain. You’d gotten yourself about halfway in, but you decided to get a rhythm going in order to make the rest of it easier.
“Baby?” She asks again.
“I’m okay, AJ.” You confirmed, biting your lower lip as you got used to the stretch. Watching her bare body, as she does yours, you felt yourself slipping further in by the minute. And with her words of encouragement, and a little push, you took the whole length. It was now poking you in the g-spot every time you came back down, making the moans fly out from your mouth every time.
“So pretty.” Her hands trailed upwards, kneading your breasts after unclipping your bra and tossing it aside, “You’re so pretty, my girl. Come on, give me a kiss, baby.” You leaned down, crashing her lips onto yours, content to be like this for awhile. She instinctively cups your cheeks with both hands, stroking them with her thumb. The kisses progress got heated, aiding in your little task of riding the strap. She was loving watching you and seeing your tits move along with your actions. That grin on her face? She was more than satisfied with your ability to take it. She pushes you off of her, you whine not liking the sudden emptiness. “Lay down, baby.” She pushes you down gently, her hands massaging your thighs. You complied, soon feeling her teasing you with the tip of the shaft. You squirmed, unable to keep your mouth shut. So she does- AJ crawled up to attack you with kisses, trailing down from your face all the way to your core. But of course, the lower she went, the louder you became. “You know I love hearing you, baby. Don’t hold back.” She says, her breath fanning against the juncture between your legs. “The walls are so thin.” You grumbled, “Do you not hear that?”
“So what? This whole level’s our team.” AJ shrugs, “Oh, my God- is that coach-”
“Don’t put that image in my head.” You interjected, laughing, “AJ, please.” Your hands grabbed her hair, pushing her closer to you.
“M’kay.” She grins, her tongue begins to circle your clit slowly. It made you seethe, trying to swallow the whine that was threatening to fall from your lips. “I want to hear you, babe. It’s alright.” She coos, barely breaking away long enough to speak.
You back arched more and more by the minute, and naturally, the faster she flicked her tongue, the more of a mess you were. And finally, the coil in your core started tightening, taking the place of the fluttering sensation. AJ asks if you were close, and you hadn’t even said a thing since many minutes ago- but instead your endless, whines, whimpers and moans have filled the room making AJ more eager to push you over the edge.
You could definitely feel yourself getting closer to the high, your hands clutching at the sheets beneath you. “My God. I’m so close.” You told her in a strained voice. She licks your clit one time before pulling away, much to your annoyance. “I got you, honey.” AJ grins, licking her lips to taste you, “Keep your legs open, we’re nowhere near done.”
You whined needily, feeling the ache and pulsing of your apex becoming increasingly unbearable by the second as she deprived you of the contact and stimulation- to the point where you were about to burst into tears because it was becoming too much to bear. As AJ pushes into you, she held her forearm under both your knees to keep your legs in place. And every single time she pounded into you, a sharp moan attacked her eardrums, sending shocks down her spine. “Keep going, keep going…fuck!” Your breath hitches as she retracts and pushes into you the hardest she’s had that night. Her pace became merciless as you felt the wetness dripping down you, the obscene sound from between your legs made you dizzy as did the pleasure from her fucking you with the strap. Her forearm moves away, she tells you to keep your legs in place. And, she looks right into your eyes as she continues to impale you repeatedly while profanities and high-pitched moans spewed from your mouth in an unending string. “Ah- ah! Fuck.” You cursed. AJ grins, watching you with pride as you looked back at her with hooded eyes that soon rolled to the back of your head. AJ kept going and going, watching your face at first. Then your body started trembling so she reflexively slowed down. “Oh, my God.” You cried, “Holy shit, oh my God. AJ, fuck. That feels so good, babe. Oh-”She was now holding onto one leg as she went at a languish pace to help you ride through your high. The pleasure slowly turned into a slight ache as overstimulation took over. You told her to stop and she pulls out, admiring the aftermath in the process.
She removes the harness and abandoned it. You hear it fall to the floor with a thud before she crawls into bed with you. “Hi, baby.” She cups your cheek, kissing you on the nose, “Do you feel okay?” You nodded silently, laying your head on her chest as her embrace tightens. “I wasn’t too rough, was I?” AJ asks.
“I’m a little sore, but it’ll be okay.” You admit.
AJ nods, “Think you can sleep?” She runs a hand through your hair, pressing yet another kiss onto your face.
“Mhm.” You snuggled closer, allowing her heartbeat and her warmth to lull you to sleep.
“Good night, my love.” AJ exhales softly, watching your sleepy figure in her arms, “Sweet dreams.”

Loving you
(Songfic — ‘Back to December’ by Taylor Swift)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pairing : Chris Evans x Male Reader
Summery : Christmas is said to be the festival of joy and happiness. But for you, it brings the unbearable burn of old wounds. The ones you are so desperate to heal, to make all right. But will he ever give you the chance? After all you did to him? The pain, the heartbreak you caused him? Do you really deserve it? Unbeknownst to you, the person still aches for your love. He still stands where you left him, waiting for you to come back.
Warnings/tags : No warnings. Pure angst & fluff
A/N : First of all, I'd like to thank all of you for giving my Lloyd Hansen fic so much love. It truly means a lot. And secondly, this is a small (late) Christmas gift for my Tumblr fam.I actually have a Chris Hemsworth fic already in the work, which hopefully will be released soon. In the meantime, enjoy this angsty fluffy treat that came in my mind outta nowhere. Back to December is one of my favourite Taylor Swift songs and converting it into a fic was interesting. Hope you love it. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
Tumblr media
There is a party at the community park today. The party of Christmas Eve. People are going to gather around and make merry as the season of Christmas settles around. Being one of the biggest community in Boston, the people held no reservation against making it ostentatious. You also heard that a special guest is to come with their family but the identity of the person is rather undisclosed. A surprise sort of.
As a part of this community you are also going to attend the party. And having a good reputation for being a 'singer-in-the-making', also at the insistence of nearly everyone at the community, you complied to perform at least one song on the function.
You sigh as you shrug on your jacket. Your parents and siblings are already there waiting for you. Pocketing your woolen beanie, you head towards the door of your modern house and step outside.
As soon as you close the door behind you, the cold December air hit you, making your eyes water and chills erupting all over your body despite your warm getup. A blanket of thick snow covering all over the surface.
December, you think wishfully as you start to make your way to the community park. So many sweet memories but one can find the sourness of some particular memories if they take their time to sort through them. But one thing you know for a fact, yours can be found very easily. Because they're fresh yet old. Laced with so much pain, heartbreak and an unforgettable end.
You shake your head, determined not to think about them. You need a calm mind to roll the lyrics around your lips. You don't need past memories to sour your mood lest you want to disappoint the audience.
Past, you scoffed inwardly. One year isn't past. Not when the time has barely passed for you. Yes, you still think about that December. It's as if you haven't moved past it yet. Your guilt and regret constantly pulls you towards that endless abyss.
Because you know that, it was your fault. He was the victim. He gave all his love, his precious heart. But you crushed all of it with your bare hands. Still, you could've apologized, but you didn't. You can't blame it entirely on less of opportunities. Because there was plenty. But being the coward you were, you didn't even make a move. And it kills you every single day, awaken and asleep.
He has probably moved on. But you couldn't. You can't. You're still looking forward to a chance. And if it never shows up, you are going to live an incomplete life. Is it worth living?
Finally reaching your destination, you let your gaze roam over the entire scene. Christmas lights all over the area. On the trees, benches, stalls, everywhere. Children running and playing around, gleeful in their own joy. Adults laughing, boisterous. Clapping each other on back, drinking.
There is a stage on the corner where musical instruments are kept. That's where you'll be singing. You can see an elderly couple sitting on a far bench. The man unwrapping his muffler from his neck and wrapping it around his wife's. You smile softly at the display inspite of yourself.
Taking a deep breath, you enter the joy ground. Closing all of your mindless thought at the back of your mind. Masking your expressing with a picture of complete enthusiasm. Why showing them what they'll never understand? You are content in suffering on your own, that's what you deserve.
❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
December, Chris thinks as he drives his family car to where they're invited to a Christmas party today. December used to be his favourite time of the year. But now it only brings the pain and confusion he felt last December when the person he loved and cherished the most left him.
Yes, that is the word. LEFT him. But never bothered to tell him why. The answer to that why, he craves it just as much as the survivors of a desert craves water. Sometimes the crave suffocates him. Then he remembers the beautiful time they had passed. The blossoming love brimming both of their hearts.
Chris could feel himself lost in those beautiful eyes whenever he looked down in them. Could feel himself bewitched by that beautiful smile. So delicate, so lovely. He could feel himself floating by that beautiful twinkling laughter that never failed to put a fond smile on his face
He thought he could never hear his name so beautiful coming out of someone untill he heard the breathless ‘Chris’s falling from those sinful lips. Every kiss, every intimate moment they shared was precious to him. Because it felt so right.
Then what happened? When did it all go wrong? Did he do something that could jeopardize their relationship? Was his love not enough? Was he not enough? He could swear he felt the same amount of love pouring from that person. Then why the goodbye?
He wants the answers. But more than anything, he wants that person back in his life. Back in his arms. To give their love a second chance. But how? He doesn't know. All he ever knows is that their love was everything to him. He could never love anyone like that. Their love was it for him.
Reaching where they're invited, Chris parked the car along with the other ones on the parking spot and got out. They used to live here once. Therefore so many of their close friends are from this community and insisted them to be their guest on this party. Tucking his hands inside his pockets, he makes his way inside the park along with family, Scott, Lisa and two of his nephews.
People immediately spot them and greet them. Some of them already started to take pictures with him. As the night progresses, he found himself genuinely enjoy talking with old friends and just being himself.
After awhile, there is a slight commotion from the mic on the stage and one of the hosts clears his throat, grabbing everyone's attention. “Merry Christmas and a very good evening, ladies and gentlemen. It is so nice to have all of here today. Our celebration of Christmas Eve this year couldn't have been more perfect. I'd like to thank Mr. Chris Evans and his family for accepting our invitation and joining with us. Now, we also have someone here to make our evening even more brighter. A lot of you have guessed already, I know. They have the sweetest voice to enlighten all our mood. So please welcome on stage, (Y/N) (L/N)!!”
Chris's heart stops beating in his chest in time of a loud cheers erupting all over the audience. He completely froze. (Y/N)? His (Y/N)? Beside him, he can feel his mom and Scott stiffen. He doesn't know what to do. Laugh? Cry? He just stands there, eyes glued on the stage.
Then a figure starts to slowly approach from the backstage. Dressed in white t-shirt, dark jacket, dark jeans and boots. As the spotlight steadily falls on the figure, their beautiful face comes to view.
Chris felt as if his breath has been knocked out of his lungs. He can't move, feels like he's shaken to his very core. His (Y/N), the love of his life standing there on stage with a mic in his hand. Beautiful as ever.
One year, but your beauty still doesn't fail to leave him breathless. Lips parted in a small smile, delicate hands clutching the mic, wavy hair flailing about from the gentle breeze, you looked etherial to him. Your wide eyes searching the crowd. Those eyes, he thinks. He just wants to jump on the stage and take you in his arm, never let you go.
But he can't. It's like a wall has been built between you two. One word is echoing in his mind, 'why'. Why did you do what you did all those months ago? But at the same time he's scared to ask, scared to know even. He can't be vulnerable again, not before you. He has to be strong.
❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️��️❄️❄️❄️❄️
You saw him right the moment you step into the stage. How could you not. You loved this person too much to not spot him, even in this crowd of so many people. Okay, maybe that's too much. Any one could spot him anywhere, even from a mile afar. Because he is The Chris Evans. But for you, he was only Chris. Your Chris.
Your heart hasn't calm down since you've seen him. You feel as if it's going to burst out of your chest any time now. You're only able to maintain your composure because they're so many people watching you right now. Even if your eyes are slightly widened.
But, God does he look handsome. He always does. That muscular figure clad in black button-up, slacks, suit jacket and shoes. He has overgrown his beard, through which once you loved to run your fingers. The delicious coarseness you felt everytime it brushed against one of your body parts. Your neck, chin, inner thighs......you blush immediately at your train of thoughts.
But what you loved most about him, was his eyes. So blue, it pierces right through your soul. Eyes that are now averting yours. Shame and guilt bubbled up inside you at his action. He has his guards up. Why shouldn't he? After all you did to him.
He deserves someone better. Someone that'll love him, trust him just as much as he does. Not some coward. Maybe he has already found that person, maybe they're happy. He doesn't love you anymore, you think disgustedly. But you do owe him an apology. But you are not so eloquent with your words. Still there is something to help you today.
You look down on the mic in your hand and make your mind. Stealing one last glance at him, you nod at the host and the instrument players and make you way towards the front of the stage. Closing your eyes, you begin.....
💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍
I'm so glad you made time to see me How's life, tell me how's your family I haven't seen them in a while
You open your eyes and look over in time to see Chris's mom giving you a small smile and Scott waving at you. You smile back and let your gaze flit over to where Chris is standing, eyes glued to you. You feel your cheeks heaten up.
Meanwhile Chris is transfixed by your voice. He can't believe how sweet you sound. You used to sing to him at night and he always encouraged you. He believed you could be a great singer one day, he just couldn't get you out of your shyness. And here you are today. Displaying your talent and making his heart feel full.
You've been good, busier than ever We small talk, work and the weather Your guard is up and I know why
You drop your gaze to the ground. Somehow ashamed to look at anyone. Chris looks away as the reality of the song slowly dawns on him.
Because the last time you saw me is still burned in the back of your mind You gave me roses and I left them there to die
Yes, Chris can remember that night. He came home from a 2 days shoot to see the bouquet of your favorite roses that he sent to you with a 'Merry early Christmas, love' card laying on the tea-table haphazardly. Almost rotten. Just beside the bouquet was a letter, you letter, saying this wasn't working for you anymore and you're leaving. He cried so much that night that he had a constant migraine the next day.
So this is me swallowing my pride Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night And I go back to December all the time
You and Chris make eye contact for the first time and Chris can see the plea and intent in them. Your beautiful eyes shining with unshed tears making his eyes water as well.
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
Chris was the best thing that had ever happened to you. No one ever loved you and cherished you like he did. His love was so selfless and you miss it. Miss all of it.
Chris can see the longing in your eyes. He misses you just as much you miss him. But he's too afraid to say it out loud.
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright I go back to December all the time
Yes you want to. God do you want to just go back in time and change all of it. If it means to have him back, you'd do anything.
Chris also wants nothing else than go back in time and keep you from leaving.
As the instruments plays in the background, you two stare at each other and just wonder what went wrong. You know what went wrong. But you don't know at the same time. It frustrates you so much you can't even explain.
These days I haven't been sleeping staying up playing back myself leaving When your birthday passed and I didn't call
On every birthday of Chris during your time together, you were the first one to call him and wish him Happy Birthday when he was away. Even after your breakup, you desperately wanted to call him just as always. But you couldn't find it yourself to get to dial his number. Couldn't find a reason.
Chris remembers his birthday this year. The first thing he did after waking up was checking his phone. It was as if on instinct. Like he was waiting for your call or message. But he couldn't find any. Among so many well wishers, there wasn't you. And it crushed his heart even more. You could at least give him a text. But you didn't.
Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times I watched you laughing from the passenger side And realized I loved you in the fall
“You know we could be lounging in our pool right now?” You huffed and glared at Chris from the passenger seat. Chris, with his one hand on the steering wheel and the other petting dodger's head, gave you a broad grin, “But baby, this is much more fun” he countered. You rolled you eyes and made a face, “What? Fishing in this summer heat? I swear Chris, if I get a sunburn on anywhere on my body, I'm not letting you touch me for the entire week.” You crossed you arms over your chest and stared ahead. Chris only laughed and pulled you in a kiss. You couldn't help but smile into the kiss.
The memory brings a soft smile in your face as you sing the lyrics. From few feet away, Chris also smiled at the same memory. Both of you felt the love and it went even more deeper when you walked hand in hand on the evenings of fall.
And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind you gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye
Fear. It was fear that made you do all the things you did to him. You feared your love wouldn't stay the same. You feared it'd inevitably end in heartbreak. You feared Chris was too good to be true. But at the same time, you knew you were being unreasonable. The fear of losing him was so great that you started backing up from the relationship. Leaving him entirely clueless as to why you felt like that.
Chris notes the slight quiver in your voice. And suddenly, something clicks inside him. With a frown on his face, he remembers how you to started detach yourself from him in the prior months to your breakup. You started to withdraw yourself more and more. And whenever he looked into your eyes, he saw something imperceptible. What was it? Was it fear? Fear of what? He never bothered to ask you and now he feels the regret come crashing down on him.
Coming back to present, he looks over at you. But you are looking at anywhere but him. Like you're ashamed. Like you revealed something really personal.
So this is me swallowing my pride standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night And I go back to December all the time
You wish he'd know how sorry you are. You want to scream at the top of your lungs, beg for forgiveness. You can't stay alive knowing you brought a pain so vicious. Reminder of it will eat you every day.
it turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind I go back to December all the time
You just want to go back and change all the things that went wrong. Change your mind about leaving him. But you can't change the past, even if you wanted so desperately. Life isn't some science-fiction. You nearly laughed at the irony of your song and reality.
I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile so good to me, so right
You sing the lyrics with a slight head tilt and sad smile on your face all the while looking at him. Your eyes are misty but you don't seem to care.
Chris can see the open longing in your eyes. And he realizes for the first time that you still love him. You still love him to miss him like that. He can't breath and just stares at you, studies you.
And how you held me in your arms that September night the first time you ever saw me cry
Chris has always been a constant source of comfort to you. Whenever you felt sad or felt like crying, he'd wrap his strong arms around you and hold you tightly. He would shush you gently and kiss your forehead. He was someone that you could easily confide in and take refuge in his strength. So warm and so right.
Maybe this is wishful thinking probably mindless dreaming But if we loved again I swear I'd love you right
Chris feels dizzy. Because it's not your wishful thinking nor some mindless dreaming. He wants that too. So desperately. And he doesn't have to look in your eyes to see that you mean it.
But then, just as quickly, your expression changes. Morphs into something more difficult to understand. He watches you blink several times and look down before continuing.....
I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't so if the chain is on your door, I understand
You don't want to lift your expectations too high. Why should he open the doors to his heart once more for you? You don't deserve it.
Chris watches the hard acceptance on your features. He wants rush to you and show you that he is still yours. He hasn't moved on. But he stays glued to the ground. Why everything has to be so hard for both of you?
But this is me swallowing my pride standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night And I go back to December It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind I go back to December all the time
You feel so exhausted at once. More than you felt for a long time. You just want this to end, want your sufferings to end. You can't keep fighting anymore.
All the time
With the song concluding it's final note, Chris watches as a silent tear slide down your cheek, making his heart shatter into million pieces. He hates your tears. Especially when he can do nothing about it.
You slowly open your eyes and let your gaze roam over the silent crowd. A flush of embarrassment creeps up your cheeks as the reality dawns on you. But it doesn't matter anymore. You have done what you wanted to do. Now you just want to get out of here. Away from here.
Scrambling, you excuse yourself from the audience and rush out of the scene, wiping your tears, not looking at anyone. You're angry at yourself for showing this much vulnerability in front of everyone, especially him. He must be thinking what a fool you are. Must be laughing at you right now.
Chris watches with dread as you leave hastily. No, this is his chance, to make everything right between you. Your fate brought you together this day. Exactly one year after that nightmare. Destiny has given you both a chance and he can't lose it, even if his life is dependend on it.
He feels a hand on his shoulder. Turning around he sees his mom and Scott nodding at him. Go, they want to say. Go get him.
Wasting no more time, Chris runs after you. Determined to not to let you go this time.
Walking has never felt like a chore before. Your legs feel like they'll give out at any time. You feel your phone vibrating in your pocket. Sniffing, you reach out to pull out your phone. It's your dad. Probably calling to check in on you, seeing how you left. But you don't want to talk to any one right now. You want to be alone. Shutting off your phone, you put it inside your pocket and resume walking.
Suddenly you feel a strong grip around your wrist, tugging you back. You yelp and bump against what must've been a brick wall. But it's someone's chest. Someone you're so strongly familiar with, someone you're connected to the heart.
“Running away from me again?” that deep baritone voice, making you look up into the owners piercing blue eyes.
“Chris” you whisper, making his heart set ablaze. He clutches your hands close to his chest. You two are standing so close that you can feel his body heat wafting off of him. It's taking all of your willpower not to snuggle close. Chase that warmth.
Chris can't stop looking into your eyes. It still feels so surreal to have you close to him again. You feel perfect tucked against him. Like you two are two puzzles fitting around all edges. And he knows then and there, that he'll have you again. Make you his again.
But then you gently push him away, making unwanted distance between you. Looking away, you ask him, “What're you doing here?” “I'm here to get back what's mine” he replies, looking at you intently.
You shake your head, not understanding, “Why?” you ask. Your eyes going watery again and you hate yourself for it. Hate yourself for even seeing the beacon of hope.
Chris gently takes you by the shoulder and looks deeply into your eyes, “Because I love you” he whispers. And you can see the truth behind his words. There is no hesitation behind it. No cruel joke. But still you're confused. Why would he love you after....
“But I hurt you” you said, not looking at him. Waiting to be laughed in the face. But it never comes. Instead, you feel his callaused, rough palm on your cheek, turning your face towards him. “Yes, you did.” he said making you feel worse than you ever felt now that you heard it from him.
Then he took your hand in his and gently put it over his chest where his heart is steadily beating. “But the hurt wasn't greater than what I felt in here. And do you know what that is?” he asks. You can only stare dumbly at him, too shoked to say anything.
“Your love”, he declares. And he says it so reverently that you feel your legs slowly giving out. Is it truly happening? Or is it some cruel game of fate? You are completely dumbstruck. You feel like you're going to break into tears any time. You are beyond ecstatic.
Finally, not being able to hold back anymore, you reach up and crash your lips onto his. Chris returns the kiss just as eagerly. He snakes his strong arms around your waist and pulls you even more closer. You get on your tiptoes and wrap your arms around his neck to fully submit into the kiss.
The kiss is feverish. Laced with the pain of a year of longing. You both kiss like it's the end of time and you're never going to get the chance again. Chris licks your bottom lip, asking for access. You comply happily and let him deepen the kiss.
So what if the pain is still fresh? What if things are yet to gain semblance? You both simply don't care as long as you have each other. You'll work on your faults and make your relationship better. You'll grow to love and trust each other once again. This is a promise of giving your everything to the other person. Destiny has brought you together in this moment to simply give each the love you preserved in your hearts.
As you break the kiss and stare deeply into his eyes, you know that you'll give your everything to make this work. You'll love him as long as he'll allow you to and looking at him you know that he's not leaving you anytime soon.
With a sigh you bury yourself in his warm embrace as the snow starts to fall around you like a blessing from the sky itself.
“I love you, Chris”
“I love you too, baby”

𝐅𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊
she was tired of waiting. sitting on the couch, her phone in her hand while the other was busy nervously tapping on the white furniture, another yawn escaped her lips.
the dim yellow light shone on her, highlighting the eye rings underneath her eyelids. that certainly did not help keeping her awake when even her mirror reflection was screaming fatigue. yet she stayed awake.
even if she wanted to go to bed, she knew her mind wouldn’t let her sleep. she would be destined for another sleepless night, spend with her rolling and turning around in her bed. why couldn’t he just send her a message, small text that he was fine?
she was used to him not answering her calls sometimes or ignoring her on purpose. but evan had never left her that long without a sign of life. and that definitely worried her. especially because she didn’t want to fight with him.
another attempt to reach him failed as she was sent again straight to voicemail, the lump in her throat only getting bigger. she leaned back, her head making contact with the soft pillow as she let out another sigh. she didn’t even remark her eyelids closing or her hand letting go of the phone in her hand as she fell asleep. exhausting had taken her over.
although she didn’t sleep long. the turning of the doorknob and a person stumbling in instantly woke her up from her light sleep. her view was still a bit foggy as she blinked rapidly to get a clear view on the scene in front of her.
a quick glance at her phone told her it was one o’clock, reminding her that she had spent four hours waiting for her boyfriend to come home. four hours without any sign of life.
finally accustoming to the light, she was met with the view of her boyfriend, completely drunk, as he grabbed the commode next to him for stability. the long midi dress hung on her heavily as she stood up, walking towards him.
“where were you?” she demanded, anger mixing his worry as she took in the sight of him. “i was worried, you didn’t call. not even a little text so i know you’re alive. who knows maybe you were hit by a car or something. one life sign was all i needed from you!”
“just leave me alone amara,” he drunkenly slurred, slapping her hand away from his chest. “we were at a party. you know how john can be sometimes, he was in a mood to party.”
“and you couldn’t be bothered to tell me that? instead i had to sit here and wait because my mind was so worried about you. don’t you see how fucked up that is?”
“i’m sorry, just let it go.” he muttered, trying to move past her but amara was adamant on not letting him leave till they finished this conversation. especially because it was occurring so often those last few weeks. why was he so determined to go to bed though? why was he in such a hurry to get to the bedroom?
as he tried to move past her, amara felt her heart sink at the sight of his untucked shirt. she felt it break when the lingering scent of perfume she didn’t recognize made it to her nose and knew it belonged to a woman. but what shattered her heart into pieces, where she thought she’d never be able to glue them together was the significance of her realization. what it truly meant.
“you slept with someone again, didn’t you?” she asked him quietly, trying to maintain her composure.
the way he avoided her gaze was enough of an answer for her. she didn’t need to know more. no words could describe the disgust she felt when she met his eyes full of guilt.
“it wasn’t supposed to happen. i just had a lot to drink and john was telling us to let loose so i did, but i swear i didn’t mean to end up with her —.” he stammered, his voice slightly faltering.
“in bed?” amara inquired sarcastically, a pit of burning anger building up in her stomach. “no, instead you probably fucked her in the bathroom.” she retorted, swallowing heavily. “you promised to me! i can’t believe you would humiliate me like this again!”
she truly wanted to believe he could change. that his casanova days were over but she was met way too often with disappointment. and even though she could see the weight of his actions in his eyes, it had happened too often for amara to believe that his emotions were truly real. “i didn't mean to hurt you," he whispered, his voice low.
“you promised the last time that you wouldn’t cheat on me again. you said it was the last time.” she cried out, not able to hold her anger back any longer. “they think i’m stupid because of you. because of the way you painted me — that i’m the stupid girlfriend who is too weak to leave her cheating boyfriend. you made me… made me look like some dumb bimbo. again.” she yelled at him, her voice quivered with pain and trauma. “i can’t believe you would hurt me like this again.”
there was a heavy silence as amara brushed her tears away. “i’m leaving,” she said quietly, blinking away her tears. “i can’t do this anymore. i forgave each time, i accepted your promises, believed in them but this is not continuing. i’ll be leaving in the morning. i just… can’t do this anymore. i gave you so many chances and my heart can’t anymore.”
she tried to move past him, brush him off as she was about to walk past him but something held her up, more specifically evan grabbing her hand violently.
“evan stop it and let go of me.” she demanded swiftly, “you’re hurting me.”
“then start listening to me,” he replied to her, only tightening the grip on her hand. “i said i’m sorry about cheating. you’re just overreacting and playing miss diva again.
“i’m not overreacting evan. i waited the entire day, i called, i texted and you couldn’t even give me one sign of life. instead i find out you cheated on me and god knows how many times you have done that already. and everytime i forgave you but i can’t anymore. i don’t wanna be that stupid girlfriend anymore. all i ever needed was your support, not your constant humiliation.” amara croaked, her voice full of emotion.
he didn’t let go of her wrist but he didn’t apply more force to it either. and as amara looked into his eyes, she was surprised by how much she couldn’t recognize him.
“i only cheated because you made me, gave me no other choice,” he said dismissively, staring her into the eyes. “i love you so much and all you do is push me away. always so distant and putting your career over me. i never cheated because i don’t love you but because i’m desperate.”
her heart was beating quickly as she listened to him. she wasn’t sure what she was hearing. how could he possibly justify his actions by blaming her? the accusations left her feeling defenseless, tears of frustration welling in her eyes.
“i loved you and you knew that. don’t you dare pin this on me. i can’t anymore. all this disloyalty is too much for me.”
she hoped he would let her go now but he had other plans. though amara wasn’t sure whether he would even remember this conversation the next morning with the amount of alcohol he probably must have drunk. but he didn't back down; instead, he continued to pile on the guilt, especially because he just knew what to say. "you pushed me away," he insisted, his tone accusatory. "i was just looking for someone who would appreciate me because you never gave me your time. maybe if you had spent more time with me, i wouldn’t have cheated on you all those times.”
this must be a dream or at least she wished it was. how could he blame her for his mistakes when all she ever did was love him. be loyal to him. had she truly failed him that much?
“no one will take your side if you leave me,” he muttered, his voice making amara shiver. “i’m the reason they know you. who knows amara imani? but they know evan henderson. so who do you think they will believe?” he asked her, his free hand brushing over her cheek. “the white man who has been in the society his whole life long or his black little slut who’s just a bland copy of Beyoncé and Taylor swift? why do you wanna make it so hard for you? you have everything you need with me, love, money, success.”
“i love you and i know you love me too. why do you want to destroy this?” he whispered, playing even more into his manipulation. he knew all her weaknesses, how to manipulate and gaslight her and he seemed pretty satisfied with him when it seemed to work on her. all he needed was just a bit of self-doubt to win her back. and he had always known the right words. “i promise you, this will never happen again.” he let go of her wrist and even though it wasn’t very recognizable on her skin, it was clear that there would be a bruise. he lifted her hand, pressing soft kisses onto the bruised skin, his thumb brushing gently over it. “i didn’t meant for this to happen. you know that right? it was a stupid mistake.”
she swallowed the lump that formed in her throat, nodding as she tried to keep her tears down. it was a mistake, she repeatedly told herself, trying to calm herself down. he didn’t mean to.
it wasn’t the first time he had hurt her but he had been doing so good since the last time. it hadn’t been long enough ago for her to forget it but enough time had passed for her to put herself together. it should have been a sign for her, a sign to leave when her mind was glad, it wasn’t as bad as the last time. that this time it had just been her wrist. and in addition, she loved him.
“we can fix this, put ourselves together again.” he continued to whisper, his hand looking to intertwine with amara’s. “i’m all you need. just me. and you don’t want to lose me, do you? we can work through this, you and me.”
looking at him incredulously, she pulled her hand back and walked quickly past him, brushing his shoulder in the process. her feet had a mind of her own as they brought her to the guest room, amara knowing that she couldn’t sleep in the same bed next to him. even breathing became hard when they were in the same room. how was she supposed to stay here? it was a mistake, she continued to tell herself as she climbed into bed, the pillow getting wet due to her tears that were rolling unstoppable. he won’t do it again.
she searched for solitude, hiding in the guest room though she wasn’t alone for long. her eyes closed instantly as she heard evan’s footsteps approaching the door to the guest room. she couldn’t talk to him anymore, she wouldn’t make it. she turned around, her body facing the wall as she tried to act as if she was sleeping. she would confront evan tomorrow, if he even remembered what had happened tonight.
her body tensed as he let himself fall into the bed, joining her.
“i told you i was sorry,” he slurred drunkenly. “amara please.” he begged again, his words clearer now. his hand brushed down her cheek and amara begged he wouldn’t remark the wet surface of her face or her tears that were still rolling down. “you know that wasn’t me. you just provoked me and i snapped but i promise this was the last time.”
“please just leave evan. you probably won’t even remember this tomorrow.” amara murmured tiredly. “we’ll talk about this tomorrow.”
but instead of leaving and going to bed, he started to press sloppy kisses on her neck, moving up and down.
“evan go,” amara demanded, trying to push the male away but he wouldn’t budge. instead his hand travelled down further her body, stopping just above her thigh. “please stop. i’m not in the mood.”
“i just wanna apologize,” he muttered into her hair, his kissing moving up to her cheek. she struggled to push him off of her, disgust in her eyes as she felt the budge in his pants growing bigger.
when his hand was about to slip under her sweatpants, amara saw red, taking every of her strength and willpower to push him off of her. “i said stop evan. leave now.” she demanded him angrily.
his eyes grew dark again, amara watching as his expression grew cold. “this is exactly the reason why i cheated on you. you always push me off.” he yelled at her, ignoring the way her body flinched. “why won’t you sleep with me anymore?”
“all i want is to apologize to my girlfriend and she won’t even let me touch her.” he began, purposely hoping on making amara feel bad. “i know i messed up and i’m really trying my best but you have to let me.”
he leaned close to her. “i love you. you know that right?” he asked her softly, amara nodding. she truly loved him. as naive as she was, she of course believed every word he said, falling down into his trap again. “and you don’t want to lose me, do you?” he whispered into her ear, his hot breath making contact with her skin. he started pressing kisses down her neck again as she spoke words into her mind, knowing exactly just how to manipulate her. and nearly everytime it seemed to work.
“… you’re my girlfriend. you’re supposed to make me feel good. and then i’ll never have to look somewhere else again. because you’re all i’ll ever need.” he told her sweetly, a sort of guilt rushing through her heart.
so when he started to slip his hand under her sweatpants again, she just let it happen. he was all she had.

730 days had passed since that accident. 730 days ago she had made the worst decision of her life by staying with him. giving him the knowledge that she believed everything he said. two years had passed since she had allowed evan to take her sparkle away.
at first, amara didn’t even know why she thought of that memory today. it had been months that she hadn’t thought back of evan and their toxic relationship. and then she had thrown a glance at her phone and knew the reason why. it had happened on this date, two years ago. two years ago, he had managed to take a part away from her.
no one truly knows how hard it is to get out of a toxic relationship till they are caught in one themselves. outsiders will say, ‘just leave,’ not knowing how hard that can be. because no one truly knows how to escape that situation.
books with instructions to that don’t exist. so how is one supposed to know what to do? no one tells you what to do when your boyfriend lays his hand on you for the first time. the rational side of your brain will tell you to leave but do you listen? of course not. instead you try to justify the action because you’re telling yourself, why else would he lay his hand on you unless you had done something wrong?
and that’s the way the circle begins. he won’t lay his hand on you but small gestures are enough to know that he was close to hurting you again. grabbing your wrist a bit too tight, his fist almost making contact with your skin… soon you’ll find yourself happy that it was only your wrist that suffered under his anger.
no one tells you what to do when you don’t know how to leave him. you expect friends to notice your changed behavior but they’re all too busy, profiting from your misery. encouraging you to stay in that toxic relationship because it was good for them. they don’t care about the abuse you receive, whether it’s physical or mental. and the friends you know would have probably helped you, they are already gone because you pushed them away. so now you find yourself alone in an abusive and toxic relationship with nowhere to go and no escape system.
of course, the abuse is always equated with some good or else leaving would be too easy, wouldn’t it? for every mean word, a bouquet of flowers. for every wrist held too tight, a nice diamond necklace would find itself in front of you along with a smile, a smile promising that it would never happen again and yet both know that it was a lie. but still, your brain starts to forget the bad side. and whenever you find yourself close to leaving, your brain will ask you “why are you leaving when it’s good at the moment. he didn’t mean to. he loves you”.
amara had quickly realized how easy it was for an outsider to judge an abusive marriage, relationship, friendship. but they didn’t know the work that hid behind it. the exhaustion and manipulation. the betrayal of trust your brain won’t want to admit. it was a whole cycle and finding a loophole in it took more strength than one would ever admit.
as humiliated and betrayed as she had felt in that moment, amara was glad he had left her. had cheated on her publicly. it had given her the loophole she had been looking for the entire time. and it had come at a good moment too, one where he wouldn’t be able to manipulate her into staying like he had done so many time. but she still preferred to never talk about that period of her life again. it was over.
today she would be focusing on kylian the entire day. the reason she was even here. if someone had told her one year ago that she would be standing here, excited to watch a psg match, she would have called the psychiatry to inform them that they were most likely missing a patient. and yet here she was, ready to cheer on her boyfriend. her excitement was palpable as she sat in the vip lounge, eager to witness him playing in action on the field.
she had been so keen on finally watching him play live that she had even dyed her hair red and donned a stylish pair of sunglasses to not be recognized by any cameras or paparazzis that were present. even though the two were clear where they stood with each other, they did not want to share their bliss with the press yet, preferring to just live in their own bubble before any articles caught up to them.
the stadium buzzed with an electrifying atmosphere, fans donning their team's colors and waving flags with passionate fervor as screams were heard from everywhere, overtoning the commentator of the match. kylian had not exaggerated when he had told her that playing at home was always another vibe. the energy was contagious and amara found herself close to singing with the commentators but she refrained herself from doing so, not wanting to stand out. she was also impressed by the dedication of the supporters who poured their entire heart and souls into cheering for their beloved team, some even making huge trips just to come support their team. needless to say, this would not be her last match.
sure, maybe paris didn’t have as much of an history as liverpool had, and maybe they didn’t have their own fan song that had carried through the history of their club but they had supporters amara guessed. and she loved the atmosphere here.
lost in her phone, checking messages and replying to some instagram messages, amara only looked up again when the crowd erupted into a thunderous roar, announcing the arrival of the players who came walking out from the tunnel. her eyes were fixed on him though.
despite thousands of fans around her, yelling and chanting his names she managed to drown out the noise around her as her eyes searched his. the way he looked at his fans, standing majestically on the ground and the way he held himself, so confident and mesmerizing — she couldn't help but feel an overwhelming surge of pride knowing that she was there to support him.
even though he wouldn’t recognize her, amara drew kylian a discreet air kiss from stands, her way of wishing him good luck which he acknowledged with his typical smirk. it was her secret way of letting him know she was there, supporting him wholeheartedly. she felt connected to him in another way today. last time he was in her world and this time she was a visitor in his.
watching the match, amara couldn’t contain herself from yelling along the fans for every foal or occasion the blue players had, her heart pounding with each near missed chance for a goal. she cheered with unrestrained joy when kylian opened the score with a beautiful volley that landed immediately in the net, the goalkeeper having no chance. and even though she facepalmed seeing his new celebration, her grin grew wider as she watched him draw a heart with his fingers and then fire an arrow in her direction. of course the crowd went wild, looking around frantically to find the person he had just dedicated a goal to.
the crowd calmed down again when the whistle blew, indicating the break and amara was able to get away from all the screams for a quick pause. as much as she enjoyed the game, it had been a long time that she hadn’t been out again in public and even less to a big event like this. but she couldn’t have known that the second half contained just as much surprises as the first one.
sitting down again, this time armed with a bottle of coke, she watched with excitement the second part of the game, hoping for it to be just as thrilling as the first one— even more, she was hoping for another goal of him. and amara was not disappointed. fifteen minutes into the second half, the ball found kylian again who put it again into the net, dribbling his way into the surface for a quick finish. she braced herself again for another of his ridiculous celebrations, surprised when all he did was just lift his shirt so the public could read what was written on it. and upon reading it, amara was glad she had finished her drink a long time ago because the french striker had written boldly across his shirt: told you so. and she knew it was directed at her. she wanted to hide behind one of the chairs, smiling hardly but she was also painfully aware that if she acted different now, everyone would know it was for her and she wouldn’t dare to imagine how that could turn out for her.
as the final whistle blew, amara felt happy and kind of sad. for the two hours that she had been here, she had been able to drown out everything. forget about her problems because here they didn’t matter. she clapped happily as the crowd began to disperse, knowing her day was long from being over. she waited a few minutes before standing up, thanking the security men for escorting her to the changing rooms. of course only after showing him her badge that kylian had gotten her for vips.
she grew a bit self-conscious as she received several weird stares while walking towards the players changing rooms but she tried to ignore them all, focusing instead on kylian’s amazing match and all the things she’d tell him.
amara hesitated at first, unsure whether she should enter immediately as her worries took over her thoughts but she was able to block them out quickly. with all her confidence, she strutted over to the door, knocking three times before opening it and entering. taking a few steps, she was instantly met with kylian, currently changing as he took off his jersey.
“hey superstar. how does it feel to be mvp?” she teased, flashing him a playful grin as she made her way towards him.
he turned towards her with a cheeky smile, amara’s eyes not leaving his defined abs. his arms immediately engulfed her as he pulled her in for a hug, savoring the scent of cherry and vanilla that was immediately picked up by his nose. “amara? i can’t believe you actually came. and your hair? why did you dye it red?”
she laughed, throwing her head back in joy and twirled one of her extensions. “i promised you i’d be there, didn’t i? and as for my hair, told you those paps aren’t gonna catch me.” she replied sassily.
he chuckled playfully, shaking his head at her sass. “so, what did you think of the match? don’t even try to lie, i know you enjoyed it. especially my two goals,” he smirked. “comment t'as trouvé mes célébrations? kinda cool, don’t you think?” — what did you think of my celebrations?
she rolled her eyes, matching his sarcasm. “i loved them,” she retorted. “you just had to do it, didn’t you? because of you, gracey will scold me tomorrow since your new celebration,” she trailed off, looking at him pointedly, “will attire a lot of media attention. especially that second one.”
he shrugged, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "didn’t you say that any publicity is good publicity? besides they’ll probably forget it in a week.”
she laughed again, knowing he had a point but that still didn’t make her any less annoyed. “fine but don’t say i didn’t want you when the paps start camping in front of your apartment.”
“i already spend more time at yours than at my own so it’s fine.” he replied sarcastically. “that way, you won’t steal any secret tactics.”
she faked a dramatic expression, putting a hand on her chest. “oh my gosh, you discovered my plan. the only reason i actually dated you was to steal all the secret tactics and sell them to the highest bidder. but then again, your tactics aren’t really worth much.” she joked, shrieking when kylian attacked her hips, tickling her there.
“i dare you to say that again,” he demanded jokingly, resting his hands lastly around her waist, pulling her closer. “we talked about this amara.”
“i know, i know.” she repeated, rolling her eyes. “we don’t compare psg with liverpool. i know that. now come here,” she said, purposely annoying him before pulling him in for a kiss.
they were immediately caught in a passionate kiss as amara wrapped her hands around his neck. every kiss still felt like their first one, fireworks still exploding in her stomach whenever their lips met.
“you were great,” amara whispered against his lips, smiling as she leaned in to connect them again. though they never made it since the door suddenly opened and the couple was caught like a deer in headlights when the rest of his teammates came in. there was a moment of silence before one of his teammates (amara didn’t know who) started to yell.
“MAIS LE GARS, C’EST KYLIAN AVEC UNE MEUF!” on of them yelled and amara stared down, luckily not blushing. — guys, it’s kylian with a girl
“and she actually seems nice. remember when he dated chloe, that stuck-up bitch.” another one commented, his teammates agreeing.
“eh, je suis toujours la.” kylian retorted annoyingly. — hey, i’m still here
“COME ON KYLIAN, PRESENT HER TO US!” several of his teammates screamed, some even jumping up and down which made amara smile. it warmed her heart to see how thrilled they were to meet her.
“le gars, this is amara imani, the singer, you—“ he began but amara cut him off immediately, rolling her eyes.
she arched an eyebrow, looking at him incredulously. “bro, they didn’t ask you for a cv of me.” she cut him off sassily before looking at the boys who were watching them confusingly. “i’m his girlfriend.”
“what?” all of them exclaimed which made kylian smirk, probably boosting his ego.
neymar (amara immediately recognized him because of liyah’s huge footballer crush phase) was the first to grin widely and to approach her. “hah, i already knew. i was the first person he told,” he bragged. “it’s a pleasure to finally meet you in person. eu sou um grande fã de sua música.” — i’m a big fan of your music.
“obrigado. i’m a big fan of your skills too.” she replied, her accent standing out as she replied to him in portuguese.
“you speak portuguese?” another of his teammates asked (amara hating herself for her short memory because she was sure she had seen him play today).
she nodded, smiling shyly. “i speak several languages. next to english and french, i also speak spanish, igbo and a bit portuguese but mine is a bit rusty.”
“that’s still more than his last girlfriend.” another one hollered. “sergio ramos, delighted to meet you. it’s a good thing you speak spanish, now we can bitch about kylian behind his back whenever we want.”
a mischievous grin appeared on her face while this time, kylian rolled his eyes. “you do know i speak spanish fluently right?” he asked them but they both waved dismissively.
the next one to present himself was marco and even he had some difficulties, believing that kylian had actually gotten the girl. “it’s kinda weird having you standing right here. who would’ve thought kylian’s game was that good? never in thousand years i’d have believed that. also my wife is a big fan of yours. even dragged me to one of your concerts.”
she just laughed, sending kylian a playful wink before turning her attention back to marco.
one by one they introduced themselves, some not able to contain their excitement due to them being big fans while others had difficulties with believing that had actually managed to get himself a girlfriend who was none other than amara. and since this were incredible news, presnel (as amara had learned) couldn’t keep himself from facetiming the whole french national team just to keep them up with the happenings. it didn’t ring long before several faces started to pop up on the screen of presnel’s phone.
“MES FRÈRES, NOTRE BÉBÉ A ENFIN UNE COPINE!” presnel announced excitingly, waking everybody’s interest and capturing their attention. — my brothers, our baby finally has a girlfriend
“ATTEND, KYLIAN A KEN AVEC UNE MEUF?” antoine retorted confusingly, probably speaking out loud what the other members of the french team were thinking. instead of answering, presnel just shoved the phone in amara’s face who smiled awkwardly. “EH, MAIS C’EST AMARA IMANI.” — wait, kylian bagged someone?
— eh, but that’s amara imani
there was a shockwave growing through the participants of the call, all too stunned to speak.
“where is amara? i wanna see her too,” a little voice said in the background and a girl showed up next to antoine which amara assumed was his daughter. she waved shyly at the screen, causing even more chaos.
"KYKY SORT AVEC AMARA IMANI! Comment il a réussi avec sa grosse tête de tortue?” paul exclaimed amusingly as amara laughed too, nearly choking. — kylian is going out with amara imani! how did he manage that with his big head of a turtle?
“QUI S'INTÉRESSE QUELLE TÊTE IL A? IL A PÉCHO AMARA IMANI!” ousmane disregarded his friend’s comment quickly and looked at amara who had taken pleasure in watching the team react to the news. “can i have tickets for your next tour? the last one was sold out way too quick before i even had a chance." — who cares what head he has? he pulled amara imani!
“kylian, if you don't bring her to the next team event, don't even bother showing up.” aurelien threatened jokingly.
amara nudged him slightly to catch his attention. “your friends are funny. i didn’t know they were such big fans of me.”
he leaned down to whisper in her ear. “i told you, they were going to love you.”
“AMARA, JE T’AIME. JE T’AI TOUJOURS SUPPORTER, MÈME QUAND TON EX DE MERDE RACONTAIS DE CONNERIES SUR TOI!” jules then yelled over the phone making amara’s heart even warmer. — amara, i love you. i’ve always supported you even when that shitty ex was saying bullshit about you.
“je suis tellement ravie de faire connaissance avec vous et ça me tient à cœur que vous êtes de si gros supporter.” amara told them happily, genuinely touched by their warm welcome. — it’s been a pleasure getting to meet you and I’m touched that you’re such big fans of me.
kylian, who had finished changing and had finally dressed up, placed himself next to amara, his hand instantly wrapping around her waist. he placed a few soft kisses on her neck which sent tickles down her entire spine.
“stop that,” she muttered under her breath, smiling as she tried to hold kylian’s head away from her neck though that turned out to be very complicated as he had his arms wrapped around her waist.
“fine,” he replied, his lips pressed to a pout. taking a bit pity on him, she turned his head, pressing a soft peck on his lips.
“heh, il y’a des enfants ici.” yelled presnel and neymar amusingly put his hands over marco’s eyes while the couple separated quickly making everybody present laugh. — hey, there are children there
“j’ai toujours cru que le vrai amour de kylian, c’est le foot honnêtement.” paul revealed jokingly. “c’était la seule chose qu’il faisait.” — i always thought football was kylian’s true love — it’s the only thing he ever talked about
“bah apparemment, tout ce qu’il faut faire c’est ressemble à un ninja turtle pour draguer des meufs célèbre.” jules replied in the same tone as paul and amara wasn’t able to retain her giggle watching kylian’s face scrunch up. — apparently all you need for famous girls to come after you is to resemble a ninja turtle
“vous êtes chiante,” the french international striker pouted again, wanting to hide his face in amara’s neck again but she pushed him off. — you’re all pain in the asses
the entire team erupted in laughter, taking joy in watching his demise and him being all embarrassed. but of course they all meant it well. and amara understood quickly that they were a bunch of adults with the mindset of children, wondering truly how their coach was able to keep up with them.
“soo… how long have you two been dating?” aurelien asked them curiously, amara and kylian exchanging some looks.
“we’ve known each other for about seven to eight months but we started seeing each other a month and a half ago and have been officially dating for two weeks.” replied amara.
“si ça dépendait de moi, on devrait sortir ensemble pour sept mois maintenant.” kylian threw in jokingly. — if it were up to me we’d be dating for seven months now
“donc tu la fais attendre un peu?” presnel inquired, mischievous glint sparkling in his eyes as amara nodded proudly. “ça va le gars, il est complètement parti. un vrai simp.” — so you made him wait for a while? — guys, it’s official. he’s completely gone, a true simp
“wesh, ta gueule,” kylian retorted sassily, blushing slightly. — shut up
“est-ce que kylian t’embêtes de fois avec tout son bavardage de foot?” jules asked next. — does kylian annoy you sometimes with his constant talk about football
amara nodded swiftly, a loud sigh following. “yes he does. il y a des fois où je suis fatiguée et je veux seulement rentrer me coucher mais monsieur a décidé de mettre un match. et il commente toujours à côté.” amara complained. “but i love that about him.” — there are times where I’m just tired and all i want to do is sleep but mister here decided to put on match. and he always comments on it on the side
“you can never stay mad at me,” kylian whispered seductively into her ear and amara hummed, the two losing themselves in their own world again.
“eh, les amoureux on a pas encore fini.” presnel reminded them loudly. — hey lovebirds, we haven’t finished yet.
“j'espère que tu lui a appris quelques pas de danse parce que ton copain est tellement nul en danse…” paul trailed off making amara laugh. — i hope you taught some dance moves because your boyfriend is so bad at dancing…
kind of embarrassed, she admitted shyly. “ce même lui qui m’a appris à danser le slow. donc je peux te rassurer.” — actually, it’s him who taught me how to dance a slow so I can reassure you he definitely got better
“you don’t have to be embarrassed amara. we have tons of embarrassing stories about kylian. like one time” ousmane trailed off, thinking of the best example. his face brightened up immediately. “LE GARS, VOUS VOUS RAPPELER QUAND KYLIAN NOUS A FORCER À ÉCOUTER TOUS SES CHANSONS?” he yelled excitingly. — guys remember when kylian forced us to listen to all her songs
“ah oui, on se réveillait avec ta voix et on s’endormait avec ta voix.” — yes, we always woke up with her voice and fell asleep to her voice
“t’as toujours était son crush célébrité. donc on a rien dit quand il nous forçait à écouter tes chansons.” antoine explained to her and amara looked at kylian who tried to hide his embarrassment. — you’ve always been his celebrity crush. so we never said anything when he forced us to listen to your songs
“hey, don’t be shy. i find it adorable that you had a crush on me.” she replied sweetly. “that’ll be great leverage in the future.”
they started wooing, leaving some teasing side marks that guaranteedly boosted his ego. as if it needed any more growing.
“well, i have a question.” said antoine, already looking forward to teasing his teammate. “est-ce que kylian a aussi d’endurance au lit qu’au terrain?” — does kylian have as much stamina in bed as on the field?
nearly choking on his saliva, amara patted kylian’s back hard and reached for his water bottle so he could calm down.
“how do you answer that question?” amara inquired slowly.
“bah, nous on veut savoir comment est il est au lit. est-ce qu’il se vente des ses talents comme il l’aime faire souvent ou c’est vrai?” ousmane inquired. — well we want to know how he is in bed. does he exaggerate about his talents like he often does or is it true?
“i…” she looked at her boyfriend for some help but he just smirked, pointing at the screen where his friends / teammates were all looking for an answer. “oh my god, i don’t know how to answer that.”
“it’s a simple yes or no question.”
she sighed, glaring at kylian for leaving her in this situation before answering, “well, we’re fine off the pitch. ça ne manque de riens.” — we’re not missing anything
“eh mais attends. donc c’était toi qui lui a sucée le cou quand il est arrivé à l'entraînement avec un grand suçon?” presnel exclaimed shockingly. — wait a minute, so it was you who sucked his neck when he arrived at training with that huge hickey?
she shrugged dismissively. “je viens de dire que rien nous manque au lit.” she retorted sassily, sending them a playful wink that made his teammates yell again while kylian pulled her closer to him. — i just told you, we’re not missing anything
“kylian t’a intérêt à ne pas la perdre.” antoine threatened him lightly. — kylian, you better not lose her
“don’t worry, i don’t plan on doing so.”
Tumblr media
it was loud and crowded in the club. even though neymar had rented the vip space for them, they were still able to feel the excitement and atmosphere of the crowd downstairs. the music was good though and amara found herself enjoying the mix the dj had put on as she watched the people dance.
the initial thought had actually been to go home but the team decided to go out and celebrate together after such a hard-fought victory where they had played beautifully for the first time in a long time. after the call amara had wanted to go home but when the team had invited her to tag alone to celebrate their victory and also get to know the others (such as the wags) she had accepted immediately, wanting to be integrated as quickly as possible.
they had gone home quickly to change before joining the squad outside of some fancy parisian club that they had apparently frequented very often and were fond of. amara had traded the red-blue jersey kylian had gifted her for a simple gray silk dress that sparkled in the light with every step that she took. how they had managed to escape the paparazzis, she’d never know. but she looked pretty so actually she wouldn’t mind being photographed right now.
kylian had immediately complimented her when she had come out of her bedroom, sporting the gray dress with her red hair tied up in a high ponytail. he was in awe of how she let the most simplistic things look beautiful, even when she put minimal effort into it. the entire night his eyes had not left her even when he was talking to one of his friends, his eyes had not left his girlfriend which amused his friends greatly.
he was also very happy of how well she got along with the other girlfriends and wives. he knew her friendship circle wasn’t very big and the only real friends she actually had were liyah and grace (where she always assured him that they were enough) but yet she was willing to put herself out there and make new contacts. perhaps he hadn’t given her enough credit when she had announced to him that she was coming back.
with the excuse of wanting to get himself another drink he was able to leave the conversation and rejoin his girlfriend that was waiting at the bar for her own drink. he surprised her from behind, putting his hands around her neck which startled amara at first but she relaxed quickly once seeing that it was kylian.
“t’es tellement belle,” kylian whispered in her ear, intertwining their fingers and amara leaned into his body. “i hope you’re having fun.” — you’re so beautiful
she nodded, taking a sip from her drink that had just arrived. “merci mon cœur.” she replied softly. “and i am having fun. jessica and sarah are sooo nice.” she replied, pointing to the two women who sat a bit away from the dance floor and were talking. “we have even planned some shopping dates already.”
“that’s amazing ma belle.”
the two stayed in their own bubble for a while, the comfort of the other being enough. amara had never truly realized how safe kylian made her feel especially when they were somewhere that was out of her comfort zone. he made sure she felt welcomed, safe. he didn’t abandon her like she was used to when she was dating evan and hung out with some influencer barbies.
talking with his teammates had also shown her what kind of supporting system kylian had, which she found was a privilege. talking from experience, she knew exactly how hard it could be when you were left all alone without any kind of support and how hard it would be in some difficult situations. and the french national team had immediately accepted her, welcomed her the moment she had introduced herself as kylian’s girlfriend.
truthfully, that she was someone’s girlfriend again felt a bit weird to her in the beginning. after finally learning to be alone, she was again someone’s girl. but this time she had said because she wanted to and not because someone had coerced her into accepting. and the way kylian had asked her whether she wanted to take another step. so calm, patient and genuine — she’d have been a fool to say no.
“do you get flashbacks?” she asked him, her eyes traveling across the club. “from the first time we met?”
“a bit. just that it wasn’t a club and you’re not as drunk as you were that night.” he laughed.
the two seemed inseparable with their bond evident to everyone around them. they didn’t even go back to their friends they had left with the excuse to get a drink. instead they stayed at the bar, laughing and talking while watching the people around them. only when the tones of dadju’s bébé came out from the speakers did the two leave their places to join the dance floor. kylian less willingly but then again he would do anything to see her smile.
as they swayed to the rhythm of the song, the rest of the the group couldn’t help but be marveled by how much in love they actually were.
“look at them,” presnel said to the group, pointing to the couple dancing to the song. “one could think they’ve been dating for a year. there’s no way they’ve been dating for only a month.” he exclaimed, the group watching as kylian muttered something into her ear and amara threw her head back laughing.
“wouldn’t be surprised if kylian got down on his knee right now,” marco added, grinning widely, “just watching them is enough to make someone sick. they’re acting like a couple on their honeymoon.”
“well, she was his celebrity crush,” neymar added, matching marco’s expression. “our boy has game. he’s definitely head over heels for her.”
“and she is for him.” sarah chimed in, taking place next to her husband.
the group watched with fond smiles as the couple danced on the dance floor. they probably didn’t even notice people staring at her, that much they were caught in their own world. they stared into each other's eyes, smiling as they swayed to the music. the song they had originally got up for had finished long ago but the two couldn’t bring themselves to sit down again. except quick drinking pauses (that mostly consisted of amara ordering a drink while kylian announced himself as the dd) their feet were glued to the crowd. and in addition to that,
as the night wore on, the number of drinks amara had downed became higher too. luckily for her, this time she wasn’t an emotional drunk but more like a fun and energetic drunk. she would be lying if she said that she didn’t enjoy kylian whispering sweet things into her ear the entire night or dancing with her new friends the moment the dj put on some quicker music.
knowing his girlfriend was tired though after some time, he made his way over to her, pulling her closer as he inhaled her scent.
“we should go home now, don’t you think?” kylian muttered softly into her ear. “tu n’arrives même plus à tenir,” he laughed, watching his girlfriend’s drunken state. — you can’t even stand properly anymore
“but my new friends… i haven’t finished dancing with them yet.” she pouted. “sarah was telling me a story.” she slurred him drunkenly.
“je te promets que sarah va venir demain pour te raconter le reste de l’histoire,” he tried to compromise, already bidding goodbye to the group who had immediately understood after seeing amara’s state. and they weren’t the only ones. marco and jessica had also already left, jessica having drunk just as much as marco. — i promise you sarah is coming tomorrow to tell you the rest of the story.
wearing a grumpy expression, she intertwined her hands and followed kylian outside, who had already called his driver. as kylian led amara to the car where his chauffeur was waiting for them he couldn’t help but reminisce about the night they had met for the first time. it felt nostalgic remembering how similar this situation was to how they first met. only difference was that this time, instead of nearly falling asleep, amara was full of energy, happily skipping around as they marched towards the car.
as they settled into the car, amara’s head rested on kylian’s shoulder, her gaze wandering out the window into the city lights that blurred past. his eyes were filled with love, watching her snuggle against him.
“you remember that night?” amara’s voice broke the silence, her words slightly slurred yet laced with fondness. "when you saved me from probably being kidnapped even though i was such a bitch to you. and now we’re here again.”
he nodded, pressing a gentle kiss on her temple. “i had to google myself to prove to you that i didn’t have any bad intentions. and you were so sarcastic that night.”
“well, it’s a good thing that you’re so stubborn,” she replied cheekily. “imagine if you had actually walked away.”
“i probably wouldn’t have been able to do this,” he leaned in and softly pecked her lips.
as they arrived at amara’s place, kylian carefully helped her out of the car, he walked her through the door as her laughter echoed in the night air, not able to stop himself from falling for her all over again. walking through the gate, they continued their playful banter and inside jokes, kylian enjoying her funny drunk-self.
the only moment where silence was present was when the couple found themselves in the elevator, standing face to face. that was also where the alcohol truly kicked in, not only for amara but also for kylian. before they even knew, the couple was making out, and only stopped when the elevator rang, signaling them that they had finally arrived at her apartment.
she stumbled through the room, her words slurred and laughter infectious as she entertained him with drunken anecdotes and witty remarks. while amara told kylian a drunken story about her first time on tour, the french striker helped the singer change into her pajama and carefully tried to do her skincare. (and kylian will forever brag to anyone who’ll hear that he perfectly applied moisturizer and toner.)
it would probably count as one of kylian’s biggest achievements that he managed to not only put a drunken woman to bed but also have her occupied enough that she didn’t recognize that he had left to change himself. he slipped secretly into her bed, getting comfortable next to her as amara cuddled into his chest continuing her rambling about god and the world while kylian found his comfort just listening to her.
all of sudden, a brilliant idea struck her as she listened to kylian’s heartbeat.
“omg kylian i have an idea for a song!” she exclaimed loudly, giggling. “quick, i need paper, please. avant que ça ne quitte ma tête.” — before it slips away from my head
her boyfriend chuckled affectionately, a wide smile plastered across his lips as he stood up to get her some paper. for some people it would seem stupid to listen to a drunk person but she could ask him to do the most dumb thing ever and he'd do it as long as it puts a smile on her face. that was love — sacrificing yourself in the most stupid ways just to see a smile on your partner’s face.
he hurriedly fetched a notepad and pen which she grabbed from him and even though she lacked any other surface to put the paper on, she started scribbling the lyrics on the paper.
“so you’re just going to write a song now.”
“yes.”
“in your state?”
“yep.”
the room filled with a poignant silence as she wrote the lyrics to the song. in the end it turned out to be a process of not only her but also kylian. he gave advice and listened to her while she sang some of the verses to him she was insecure about or when she didn’t find a word that fit enough to describe a feeling. he felt a profound sense of admiration and love for her as he watched her work.
finding comfort in his warmth that his body extended to hers, she looked him deeply into the eyes, staring behind his pupils and into his soul. "well, you know you kind of own my heart. you’re actually the king of my heart."

Just perfect
Tumblr media
Pairing:death the kid x black reader
Warnings:none
Summary:death the kid meets soul sister while he was walking on the street and falls head over heels im love with her because of how perfect she is.
Tumblr media
In the illustrious Death City, the meister known as Death the Kid roamed the streets with his loyal weapons, Liz and Patty Thompson, by his side. Known for his impeccable symmetry and obsession with perfection, Kid was always on the lookout for any asymmetrical disturbances in the world around him.
One day, while Kid was inspecting a suspiciously crooked building, he caught sight of a young black woman with (h/c) knotless braids and captivating (e/c) eyes. She had an air of confidence and a mischievous smile that intrigued Kid. Intrigued by her unique beauty and captivated by her mysterious aura, Kid approached her with his usual charm and precision.
“Excuse me, miss,” Kid said, his voice filled with curiosity, “I couldn't help but notice your presence. Your symmetry is absolutely stunning. Might I inquire as to your name?”
The young woman turned to face him, her smile widening. “My name is Y/N Evans,” she replied. “And who might you be?”
Kid couldn't help but be enamored by her response. An Evans? Could she be related to Kid's close friend, Soul Evans? The thought excited him, and he couldn't help but let his affectionate side shine through.
“I am none other than Death the Kid,” he said, a faint blush coloring his cheeks. “And might I say, Y/N, your presence has brought an extraordinary sense of balance to my world.”
Y/N chuckled softly, finding Kid's obsession with symmetry endearing. As they continued to converse, they discovered that they shared a love for art, philosophy, and, most importantly, a passion for fighting. Time seemed to fly as they discussed their deepest desires and dreams, forming a connection that felt like it was destined to be.
In the following weeks, Kid and Y/N found themselves spending more time together, their bond growing stronger with each passing day. Kid admired Y/N's strength and determination, while Y/N was fascinated by Kid's unwavering dedication to justice and his unique way of seeing the world.
Soul on the other hand was so confused. Why was his sister hanging aloud with kid.
As their friendship blossomed, Kid's feelings for Y/N deepened. He found himself falling head over heels in love with her, captivated by her every movement, every smile, every word. It was as if Y/N was the missing piece in his symmetrical heart.
One fateful day, Kid finally gathered the courage to confess his feelings to Y/N. They were standing at their favorite spot in Death City, overlooking the sunset, its vibrant colors reflecting in their eyes.
“Y/N,” Kid began, his voice filled with a mix of nervousness and determination. “Since the day we met, you've brought so much joy and balance into my life. Your presence, your smile, everything about you… I've fallen deeply in love with you.”
Y/N's eyes widened in surprise, her heart racing. She had grown fond of Kid's eccentricities and his unwavering loyalty, but she never expected him to feel this way. Her face heated up as she searched for the right words to respond.
“Kid,” she whispered, her voice filled with both uncertainty and warmth. “I never thought that someone like you could see me in such a way. Your dedication to justice and your unique perspective on the world have always fascinated me. And now, knowing that you feel the same way… I think I've fallen for you, too.”
A sense of relief washed over Kid as he heard Y/N's response. At that moment, he felt an overwhelming surge of happiness, as if the entire world had aligned perfectly in their favor. They stood there, basking in their newfound love, as the sun dipped below the horizon, leaving behind a sky filled with stars.
Y/n then leaned in and kissed kid on both sides of his cheeks.kid blushed. I'm so happy that I met you, y/n said.

The Moon Is A Curse (Remus Lupin)
I don't know what inspired me to write this one-shot. I was just sad one day and decided to sort my feelings out by writing this story. And while I was looking at the moon, I thought of Remus.
I hope you guys enjoy this one-shot as much as I enjoyed writing it.
*****
Warning: none just fluff and angst.
Remus Lupin x Fem!Reader
Tumblr media
*****
Astronomy class is my favorite subject. Studying the moon and the stars. How the stars guide every traveler to their destination. And the moon. Oh, the moon. I love how it shines brightly. Many things are fascinating about taking this class. It's also peaceful because it is taken at night.
"It's a full moon tonight." Lily Evans mentioned as while we were eating dinner at the Great Hall.
"Indeed, it is. The more reasons I look forward to taking Astronomy class." I commented in excitement before taking a bite of my cornbread.
"You're such a Ravenclaw." My friend smiled at me. 
"Oh shut it. You would've fitted in Ravenclaw." 
"True. But Gryffindor does fit me." She giggled.
"Why's that?"
"I'm good at judgment, Y/N. For example, I thought you were a bitch." I raised my eyebrow at him. A grin plastered on her face like she was about to laugh at my face.
"And???" 
"I stand corrected." I threw a grape at her while she laughed. "Hey! I still proved a point!"
"Shove off, Lily." I rolled my eyes at her. "Now I understand why Potter fancies you." It was her turn to roll her eyes.
"Oh don't even start."
Soon after the four boys entered the Great Hall and sat at our table. James Potter with his messy hair, Peter Pettigrew, who immediately grabs food to eat, Sirius Black who looks at me with his stupid grin cast on his face, and Remus Lupin who looks like he's going to throw up.
"Hello, darling." Sirius greeted me as he sat beside me.
"Way to ruin my day, Black."
"And a way to wound my heart." He placed his hand on his chest, a grin never fading on his lips. I rolled my eyes at him.
"Lupin." I greeted the boys in front of me. He looks nervous and stressed. "Are you alright? You look like you're going to be sick."
"Oh...uh... Yeah, uhm... I'm fine." He looks uneasy like he didn't want to start a conversation.
James started to clear his throat and sat beside Lily.
"You should eat, Moony. Food helps with anything. Right, Wormtail?" He looked at his friend who stopped eating and nodded.
"Right, he is, Remus!" He agreed and then placed a piece of chicken leg on his friend's plate. "Go on, mate. Eat!" He smiled.
Remus looks like he just lost a battle that he didn't even bother to fight in the first place. He finally took a bite while I decided to scoop a mashed potato and put it on his plate.
"I heard it really goes well with gravy. You want?" I picked up a pot of gravy. He softly smiled and nodded. I poured the right amount of gravy on his mashed potatoes.
"Thank you, Y/N."
"You're welcome."
"Looks like you fancy my friend," Sirius smirked beside me, nudging me.
"Just because I'm nice to him, it means I fancy him. I'm naturally nice!" I defended. Well, it was true that I developed a tiny crush on Remus. But no one needs or has to know. Even Lily doesn't know.
"And here I thought you were naturally a bitch." Lily commented beside me. I slapped her shoulder which she laughed it off.
"I get your point, Lily! What a Gryffindor you are!" I told her.
I looked at my watch and saw that class was about to start. I picked up my things and stood from our table.
"Astronomy class is about to start," I told them. The boys also stood up. I raised an eyebrow at them. "You do not take this class, do you, boys?"
"Oh, no. We just, uh... need to get back at the dorms early." James answered. I still looked at them, curiously.
"Oh, for Merlin's beard." I heard Lily say under her breath. "They need my help with Potions. You know how dumb they are in that subject." My friend stood up and linked her arm with James'.
"You can handle four of them?" I raised my eyebrows suspiciously at her.
"Now that's a very Gryffindor of you." She smirked. "Thanks for your concern but I can handle them very well. Besides, Remus helps me."
"Okay... I'll see you guys tomorrow." I bid them goodbye and went to the Astronomy Tower.
Today's lesson is interesting. I listened and learned from our Professor. I used my telescope to determine the stars and drew on my chart. As I did my work, I couldn't help but admire the moon that was shining upon us. I bet it's reflecting in my eyes.
The class dismissed and I decided to stay for a while. The professor smiled at me and then complimented how I excellent student I am. After a few minutes, she bid me a good night and I was finally left alone.
As I admired the night sky, looking at the full moon, I heard a loud howl near the forbidden forest. My face turns into a frown.
I just realized how much I admire the full moon because of its beauty. There's someone who's suffering because of it.
I bet it's awful to transform into a werewolf. I heard it's quite painful. We learned about werewolves during our third year. And I must say it was quite interesting learning about them.
Misunderstood, they are. But not all of them.
Another howl was heard from the forest. I can feel it's pain. Like it was struggling, crying for help. I feel sorry for it.
I hope they're well as soon as the sun rises tomorrow...
-
"Morning." I greeted as I sat beside Lily.
"Hey. How was the class last night?" She smiled.
"Wonderful. How was your tutoring last night with the boys?"
"...Great," There was a hint of sadness in her voice.
"Is everything alright? And where are they? Shouldn't they be here?"
"Everything is alright. They probably slept through the alarm. Besides, it's Saturday." She smiled weakly at me. I can sense that something was wrong.
Lily and I have been friends since our third year. We took Divination class together out of curiosity but never took it again the next year. Because we find it ridiculous.
We're in our sixth year now. And in these past 5 months ever since she and James dated, she's always a bit...off every once in a month. Maybe it was just her hormones whenever she was in her period.
"If you say so..." I took a sip of my coffee. "I need to stop by at the Hospital Wing. I promised Madam Pomfrey that I'll volunteer for her today."
"You are?" She looked surprised.
"Yes. So, I'm afraid I cannot accompany your lonely sad ass, Evans." I grinned at her whilst earning an eye roll from her.
"I can survive a day without you, smartass."
"That's good to hear."
Our conversation continued before I decided to go to the Hospital Wing.
"There you are Ms. L/N. I thought you were busy and forgot to volunteer." Madam Pomfrey greeted.
"I wouldn't. Sorry, I was late. I needed to return a few books from the library." I rolled my sleeves and tied my hair to prepare myself for making medicines and potions for the ill students.
"Can I start? I wouldn't pass the opportunity to help and learn." I smiled.
"You're truly dedicated at your age. I heard you were considering to work at St. Mungo's?" She led me to a cubicle and handed me a chart of the students who were in the Hospital Wing at the moment.
"I am. I wanted to follow in my dad's footsteps. And I like to take care and help people." I took the chart from her and saw Remus' name on it.
"Is he alright?" My face turns to a worried look. Madam Pomfrey looked at the chart where my finger was pointing.
"Ah, Mr. Lupin. Are you two acquainted?" She asked and I nodded at her. "He is quite alright. Just needed a few stitches and I remember, he needs Wiggenweld potion. Could you brew some?"
I didn't hesitate and went to fetch the cauldron along with the ingredients. After finishing the potion, I went to Madam Pomfrey to inform her that I was done brewing.
"Wonderful! Why don't you give it to him?" She said while her eyes led to where Remus was lying down.
"I, uh, uhm... He cannot know that I'm here..." I muttered. I heard Madam Pomfrey chuckle. She held my shoulder and pushed the potion into my chest.
"Mr. Lupin might need a familiar face to see right now. His friends are quite busy serving detention."
"But..."
"Go on, dear." She gave me an encouraging look. I sighed deeply before walking my way through him.
As soon as I reached his bed, my gaze softened. He looks awful. A lot of bandages were wrapped around his body. His gaze turns from the ceiling to me.
His eyes widened at the sight of me.
"Y/N?"
"Uhm... You need to drink, uh, this..." I hate that I always stutter whenever it's just the two of us.
He nodded and fixed himself. He leaned at the headboard of the bed slowly. I could see him struggle so I placed the potion at his bed table and helped him.
"Here. Are you good?" I held his arm lightly as I fixed his pillow for his back.
"I am. Thank you."
I start to pour the right amount of the potion I brewed and give it to him. He drank it and handed me the cup.
"That should help you feel better." I closed the bottle of the potion. "I didn't mean to pry and we're barely even friends..."
"We're friends, Y/N." He smiled.
"We are?"
"We are. Unless you don't want to."
"Oh, no! I mean, I want to! Merlin, am I embarrassing myself in front of you?" I felt my cheeks burning but Remus just chuckled.
"No, you're not."
"I'm sorry."
"There's no apology necessary, Y/N." He gave me a kind smile which made my heart, warm. "But you were saying something. What is it?"
"How did you end up with those wounds? What happened?"
Remus seems to be taken aback. He looked like he didn't want to answer the question. He wants to but is finding what excuse he can tell.
"It's fine if you don't want to answer."
"No. It's just... the boys and I did something stupid and well..."
"I see. That's why they are serving detention today."
"Yes."
"Understood. I'm going back to help Madam Pomfrey. Just call us if you need any help or concern." I smiled before turning my back on him.
"Actually..."
"Yes?" I looked over to him.
"Never mind."
"Oh, okay... See you later."
"See you."
I returned to Madam Pomfrey's desk and started to scribble notes.
"Did he take the medicine?" Madam Pomfrey asked.
"Yes, he did."
"Hmm... you should be here more often if he intends to return here with more injuries. That boy is stubborn to take his medications."
"What do you mean? He drank the potion without being stubborn. And more often? You mean he's always here? Injured?" My concern was visible and the elder woman just smiled at me, not bothering to answer my questions.
-
"You look troubled." Lily closed the book she was reading.
"I am?"
"You are." She rolled her eyes before speaking again. "What is it? Potions problem? Hmm, no. You're good at potions like me. Transfiguration problem? No, you're also good at it? Boy problem? Pfft, no. Of course, not. You don't like someone. I mean, if you do, I would know! Wait..." She stopped talking as soon as she mentioned the boy's problem.
"Fucking bloody hell! You do have a crush on someone!" I quickly covered her mouth when the other students started to look in our way.
"Quiet, Lily!"
"Who is it? How long? Tell me everything!" She looked so excited. This is why I liked to keep it to myself.
"Lupin. Since last year..." I looked at my friend's face and she kept her expression neutral. I raised an eyebrow at her because I was expecting a reaction from her. "Uhmm...?"
"Oh, sorry. I always knew you liked him, Y/N." She grinned at me. "But besides that... Remus, huh? If James have known, he would be freaking out and started to plan all your wedding." She laughed at the thought of her boyfriend.
"Well then it's good Potter's not here," I said.
"Quite. How did you start liking him?" She looked eager to hear my answer to her question. I smiled at the thought of when I started liking him.
"Y/N Artemis L/N..." He says my name under his breath while holding my leathered diary. I panicked that I didn't mean to snatch my diary out of his hands harshly.
"This...is mine..."
"Sure, it is. You have a beautiful name." A blush crept into my cheeks. When he saw my face, he started to clear his throat. "Uh... Uhm, sorry. You drop it but I swear I didn't read it. I, uh, uhm...would never invade one's privacy." He explained.
"It's fine, Lupin. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be harsh."
"An apology from you isn't necessary. I'll see you later." He bid me a goodbye.
"See you..."
"You started liking him because he told you that your name is beautiful?" Lily looked amused.
"It's kinda shallow, I know." I sighed.
"No, it's not. It's kind of amusing. Of course, Remus is always nice." My shoulder started to lump when she said those words.
He's nice to everyone... It's one of his good qualities but sometimes I mistake his kindness into something more.
"I know..."
"Why don't you ask him to have a study session? Just the two of you."
"Oh, no. He'll probably say no. Besides I don't want to bother him. He needs his rest. I'm sure you know what had happened to him." I shook my head while laughing nervously. Lily's face turns into a frown.
"I'm not saying that you should ask him now, Y/N. And besides, Remus wouldn't mind. You both like to study and stick your noses in books. He will say yes to you, I promise. So, why don't you go and try?" She continues to encourage me.
-
A couple of weeks had passed and I decided to ask Lupin for a study session. And so, I made my way through Great Hall and immediately saw him with his best friends. Lily spotted me and invited me to sit down.
"Hello, love." Sirius greeted me as soon as I sat beside him while Lupin was in front of me.
"Hello, Black." I greeted back. I turned my face to Lupin. "Hello." He stopped scribbling on his parchment to face me.
"Y/N, hello." His smile is beautiful. I tried not to distract myself and took a deep breath.
"Are you... Uhm, do you have anything to do later this evening?" I asked him. Lily seemed to hear my question and slowly turned her attention to us.
"Er... No. Why do you ask?"
"Well, I--"
"Are you asking my best friend out?!" Sirius cut my words off. James and Peter looked at us. I saw James start to curve his lips upward and wanted to say something but Lily butted in.
"Oh, bloody hell, Sirius!" She scolded while James tried to calm his girlfriend.
"Are you?!" He insisted on asking. I felt embarrassed and couldn't look at Lupin.
"Never mind him, Y/N. What were you saying?" Lupin finally starts to speak with a gentle tone.
"Uhm..." I slowly looked up to meet his eyes. He was looking at me, encouraging me to tell him what I was about to say. "I was going to invite you for a study session... Just the two of us. If that's okay."
"I would love to. I'll see you later at the Library."
After dinner, I finally made my way to the Library. I was feeling quite nervous but excited. As soon as I stepped inside the Library, I already saw Lupin sitting near the window. He looks troubled, looking outside the window. I started to wonder if he felt pressured and forced to agree to this study session.
I slowly walked toward his direction and sat in front of him. He looks like he snapped out of his thoughts and turned his attention to me.
"Sorry..." I muttered.
"Why do you always feel sorry whenever you see me, Y/N?" He looks at me curiously. I looked away.
"I feel like... I'm always bothering you."
I heard a soft chuckle coming from him.
"You're not, believe me."
"You meant it?"
"Yes." He answered.
"No. I mean, do you mean it when you agreed to have this study session with me?" He looks confused with my question.
"Of course. Why wouldn't I?"
"I just thought...that you just agreed because you felt sorry and don't want to see me get embarrassed."
"Oh. I didn't agree because I felt bad. I agreed because I want to. I like your company, Y/N." His words were comforting and didn't feel like a lie. I smiled at him and started to open my book to study.
After a few minutes, I found myself staring out the window. I was admiring yet again the night sky. I felt someone was looking at me. I turned around only to meet his eyes again. He was looking at me intently.
"Lupin?"
"What's so beautiful about the night? It's just darkness and a lot of bad things happen at night. Why do you admire it?" He asks.
"Well... It isn't a total darkness, isn't it? There are beautiful stars and the moon. They're the ones who light up this night. They are the reminder that even in the darkness, there's always a light." I looked at him and his face softened. He looked vulnerable. "A moon is also a reminder that the sun will always show up."
"That's..." He smiled at me but his eyes were sad. "I have a guess that you always see the good in other people."
"Some people are just misunderstood. So, I always wanted to understand them."
Even if his face is covered with scars, he looks handsome... Fuck, I think I'm in love with him.
-
Our study sessions continued every night ever since that night. Sometimes, we would just close our books and talk about a lot of things.
But this night is different. He told me couldn't come to our study session because something important came up. I told him that it was fine and that we can reschedule it tomorrow. But he told me he won't be available this whole week.
I finished helping Madam Pomfrey at the Hospital Wing and decided to go to the Astronomy Tower. Tonight is a full moon and I always liked to watch the moon at its fullness. I mean, it's the reason why I was named after a moon goddess, Artemis. I was born on a full moon.
As the full moon shone brightly, a loud, painful howl was heard near the Whomping Willow. Its cries were awful like it needed help. It was a howl that I had heard for the last 6 years.
The next day, I went to the Hospital Wing to help Madam Pomfrey. It became my routine since she really helped me a lot to take care of the students who were sick.
"Right in time, dear. Here give this to Mr. Lupin." She gave me a bottle of potion. I was about to ask her when she pushed me into the curtains to see his unconscious body lying down on the bed.
I see his fresh cuts and wounds. They looked worse than last time. A bandage that wrapped around his torso like the last time he was in here. As I examined his state, his eyes were starting to open. I went over to his side and held his hand.
"Lupin..."
"Y/N? What are you doing here?" His voice is a little hoarse.
"You know fully well that I helped Madam Pomfrey." I put the potion aside and helped him to lean against his bed's headboard. "What happened to you?"
"It's..."
"Another trouble with your friends? That excuse won't convince me now since your wounds are worse than last month. I'm sure your friends wouldn't put you and themselves in danger. Even they're foolishly brave."
Lupin's lip pursed as he looked uncomfortable.
"Do you not trust me?" I asked as I poured his medicine into a cup before handing it to him.
"I...I do trust you. I'm just scared."
"Of what, Remus?"
"That you'll be afraid of me." I sat at the side of his bed.
"I will never be afraid of you. How could I?"
"Y/N..." He took a deep breath before he spoke again. "I can't tell you..." I reached for his hand as he looked at me. I gave him a comforting smile.
"I won't force you to. But please know that I am here for you. I'll listen to you. We'll talk like we have done these past few weeks."
"I'm afraid of the night. I'm afraid of the moon. I don't like it." He tightened his hold on my hand. "It always brings me pain, it makes me weak. It makes me helpless. Indeed, James, Sirius, and Peter always stayed with me during the painful transformation. But I'm always afraid that I'll hurt them if..."
That's when I realized everything. The painful howls I hear every once in a month for the last 6 years. The cries for help that make my heart break. It was him. It was Remus Lupin. He's a werewolf.
I didn't say anything and hugged him tightly. It was stupid but I cried on behalf of him. His body stiffened when he heard my sobs. He gently put his arms around me and nuzzled his face on my neck while inhaling my scent. His body started to relax.
"Why are you crying?" He whispered in my ear.
"I'm sorry you have to go through all of that pain. I'm sorry you feel scared. I'm sorry--"
"Y/N. I told you not to--"
"I am sorry, Remus. You don't deserve any of this." I pulled my head away to see his face. My arms were still on him, hugging him. "I want to take all your pain away. I want to stay with you."
"No... What if I hurt you? I can't risk your life if I let you stay."
"I don't care. I... I love you, Remus. And this is the only thing I am not apologizing for." He was surprised at my sudden confession. His hands left at my back and moved to my face. He cups and caresses it. He wipes my tears and places a kiss on my forehead.
"I'm sorry... I didn't intend for you to fall in love with me. It's all my fault."
"It wasn't. You shouldn't blame yourself because I love you. I want to stay, Remus. I want to be here with you, forever." My hands moved on the sides of his neck. "Please don't push me away. Please let me take care of you."
I slowly traced the scars on his face with my fingertips as he closed his eyes, feeling it.
"I love you..." He says as he leans closer to my face. I could feel his hot breath brushed on my face. His lips slowly lean into mine.
"Remus..." He closed the gap and finally placed a soft, sweet lingering kiss on my lips.
"I love you, Y/N. God, I love you so much." He says between our kisses. And then he pulled away but he rested his forehead against mine. None of us spoke and just felt our moment.
-
Remus finally woke up and saw Sirius looking at him, worried.
"You alright, mate?" His friend handed him a glass of water.
"Y-Yeah..."
"You were calling her name, Moony."
He didn't look at him. He felt his heavy heart and looked outside the window. It was night and the stars shone brightly. The moon is in a crescent shape.
"It's night," He says.
"Yes, it is." Sirius handed him a potion. It was a wolfsbane potion. "There's a full moon tomorrow."
Ah... Remus always hated the full moon. He always does because of the pain it brings him. The transformation is always painful. But every month, every year, he always looks forward to the full moon. Because it's the only time he'll be with her.
When the moon rises, she's with him. She stays. That's when it's fine even if the transformation is painful because he knows she's there. She'll soothe the pain away. He just needs to look at the full moon and everything will be alright.
"Remus?" Sirius called his friend.
"She likes to look outside the window when night falls..." He looked at him with a painful expression.
"She does..."
"I can't wait for the full moon tomorrow night. I can't wait to be with her again." His voice was trembling, like he wanted to cry. "How can I fall in love with the moon when it's a curse? I'm supposed to hate it now that it will always bring me pain more than ever."
"Remus."
"I..."
"She left a part of her. She will always be with you as long as your daughter, Artemis, is alive. Something did die inside of you that night but it gave another reason to live. Her daughter...your daughter." Sirius placed a hand on Remus' shoulder. "She needs his father. Now, come along. Everyone is waiting downstairs. Harry arrives today." He squeezed his shoulder before removing it.
Remus went downstairs to see his daughter, their daughter laughing with Hermione and Ginny. She looked at him and for a minute, he thought he saw her again. She looks exactly like her.
"You never left me, Y/N... You kept your word." He whispered to himself before walking over to them.

Lloyd Hansen Masterlist
Tumblr media
Lloyd sits annoyed in the black SUV. His eyes roaming the city, and with a grimace of his face, he feels the deep cut. “I’ll fucking kill ‘em,” he mumbles, irritated that the man evaded him, yet again.
“I need something to fuck.”
The driver looks at him in the rear view, chuckle, “Something or someone?”
“Someone who can handle a good hard fucking,” his finger and thumb runs over his mustache, looking for that someone. “I’ll find me a needy and desperate chick to lick my wounds.”
“You’re sick,” the man behind him says, rolling his eyes.
“You have no idea,” Lloyd’s finger plays on the handle of his gun, just waiting for the right person. “Slow down,” his voice grunts out, and those blue eyes already deepen when he spots you. Clueless and careless. Body staggering around with your late night bar hopping.
Alone and unassuming. You should keep better friends around you, if you didn’t want to be unexpectedly kidnapped. The car pulls up beside you, and he jerks you quickly. Your brain addled with alcohol, it takes you a moment to realize, this isn’t where you want to be.
The car speeds off, but your arms thrash around. Legs kicking, and you let out a sharp scream. Clawing at the man who holds you, before biting down on his arm.
“Ow, you fucking bitch!” he screams out, his hand going to his piece, and he puts it to your temple. Your body freezes immediately, and you take a staggered breath. Eyes wide while you pant at him.
“That’s much better, Precious. What are you doing out at night all alone? Any bad man could have just reached out and grabbed you,” he cackles at the prospect of your predicament. That gun running down your face, and up under your chin, so he can get a better look at you. “You’ll do just fine.”
“A-a-are you gonna kill me?” you snivel, your body trying to shuffle further away, but his free hand grips around you’re neck. Giving the tender skin a squeeze, and your lungs stings with the lack of oxygen.
“No, no,” his voice sickeningly sweet, patronizing you because he kidnapped you. “I’m going to teach you?”
“Teach me what?”
“To take what I give you,” his eyes move to the front of the car, face turned up into a sinister grin, and ignoring your pleads to let you go. “I’m gonna have so much fun breaking you down, Precious. Meat always tastes better when it’s scared.”
You let out a desperate wail, irritated at how cavalier and humorous he finds this situation. “I’ll tell ya what, lick my aching wounds clean, and I might take it easy on you.”
“No,” your voice sullen, as you twist your head away from him. Refusing to look at your captor any longer.
“Before you know it, you’ll be begging to lick me clean. Greedy for more of my filthy fucking self,” his voice rings out of his clear elation.
Eyes crinkling up with glee when a large compound comes into view. Driving underground, and when the vehicle parks, he’s yanking on your arm. With your refusal, he hauls you on his shoulder. “Don’t fucking bother me, and don’t mind the screams,” he informs the men with him. Carrying you to an unknown destination.
With a kick to your gut, he smacks your ass hard, causing you to yelp, “It’ll be fucking worse next time. Just smile and take it like a big girl.”
Throwing your body to the bed, he catches you glancing towards the door, “I dare ya, Sunshine,” bringing his gun back to point at you. You sit still, not really in the mood to be shot today. Walking over to you with a rope, he ties your hands up, guiding you to another location. Just so he can hook your hands above you.
“What do you want?”
“I had a bad day. Got shot in my fucking ass, so now I need to rearrange your insides. It helps me sleep better.”
Collecting a knife from a bedside table, he runs the metal over his fingers. Slowly walking towards you, he smooths it over your heated and sticky skin. Blade side on your skin, but not enough pressure to do anything.
“How’re you feeling?” he asks, but with refusal to answer, he adds pressure, causing a perfect line to puncture your skin. Beads of blood pool up on you, but he travels the knife lower. Easily cutting your clothes into shreds, and laughing when your body is fully exposed.
The tip of his knife outlines your protruding nipples, and you try not to react. “What was that?” he asks with a devilish smirk when you whimper at the feeling. He grips hard to your chin, turning your cut face to his body. “You like this don’t you?”
“No,” you deadpan. Lloyd simultaneously presses the hilt of his knife to your throbbing clit, and licks a long stripe up your cheek, cleaning your skin, and even you can’t deny the sick pleasure he gives you.
“Hmm,” Lloyd pulls back the knife, letting you see the handle slicked up with your arousal. “What was that you fucking said?” not giving you time to answer before, he’s pushing the handle into your mouth. Forcing you to taste how much you actually like this.
“You are a dirty little slut. I wonder,” he ponders, pulling out his pistol. Letting the cool metal graze over your skin.
“Is it loaded?” you ask, trembling up at up him.
“I don’t know,” his voice mocks you. Pushing it back against your temple, his finger flirts with the trigger, “Should we find out?”
“No!”
“Hmm,” he moans, smacking the gun on your tits. Hearing your sweet sounds, he pushes it up against you, letting it drift down until you feel the coolness slide through your pussy lips. You try to deny the clenching of your cunt. Refusing to believe there’s a pool of slick rushing to your core.
But when he uses the gun to stimulate your bundle of nerves, you can’t help the weak mewl that exits your mouth. Bending your knees to bare down harder, and you watch his jaw go slack.
Twisting his wrist, the gun slips through your folds, sinking into your cunt. Needing to hold something, but you’re arms
still extend over your head. Lloyd gives a few test pumps, before your hips roll you over his gun. Getting such an odd pleasured feeling, and loving it.
Moving over the piece filthily, but looking at him, and how his face changes looking at you, you grind down harder. “Fuck yeah! Next time I shoot that prick, he’s going to have your pussy juice running through his veins.”
You work yourself over the metal, lost in a zone, and forgetting how you made it here. Not even caring because you’re so close. Right at the edge of pure ecstasy, when you feel your knees buckling, and your head lobs forward, exhausted from your fear, and high.
Lloyd tsks at you. Pulling you off of that hook, before re-tying your bonds to be behind you. Shoving you on the bed, and forcing you to your knees. Lifting your ass higher in the air, and he stares at your abused cunt. Giving slaps to those juicy lips, while he undresses himself.
Stalking over to you he runs his tip through your folds, gathering your juices on his cock.
He pushes past your entrance and you squeal at the severe stretch. Sinking down so slow you feel every inch, every vein, every pulse off his cock. Just as slowly, he pulls himself completely out. Doing this motion over and over again, until you did what you said you wouldn’t, “Please?” A you beg, desiring so much more than this painfully slow pace.
“Oh Precious, you messed up. You want it, don’t you? Need me to fuck you like the fucking animal you are, huh?”
“Yes!”
He slams into your warmth, before pulling back out again. “I told you, you’d be begging. Now let me see those pretty tears, I know you can do it.”
Gripping tightly to your hips he slams into you. Creating a fast and harsh rhythm. Thrusting in so deep and hard, you feel him in your throat, but he is perfect. Knowing exactly how to hit your spots perfect, and you become a wreck.
Your body on autopilot and reacting to his ministrations by screaming out other worldly sounds. You’re sure they don’t mean anything, but they just feel right coming up your throat.
He digs even deeper into your skin, and you keen knowing there’s going to be deep bruises shaped like his fingers. You feel the bed move from his sheer power. Screeching on the floor below.
Simpering, and arching your back at a severe angle. Ass bouncing on his hips, when a hand wraps around you. Lifting you up flush to him, while he still pumps into you. Giving your neck a little squeeze, and you feel a euphoric dizziness flow through your blood.
“My perfect little cumdump. You gonna be my play toy? Keep you in this room when I need to fuck out my aggression? God, I need it. This is perfect. You are perfection!”
Delighting at his praises, and Lloyd moves his hands to cup your tits, using them as his reins while he rearranges your guts. His motions never slow, never change. Just a harsh beating. You scream out through your orgasm, and you sob incoherently.
Gritting his teeth, he gives a final hard thrust, painting your walls with his thick spunk.
Pulling out of you, he lets your body, fall to the bed, before he walks in the bathroom to clean himself, leaving you fucked and blissed out. “That sloppy snatch looks pretty when it’s leaking of me. You know?” he starts as he cuts off your restraints. “Go get yourself cleaned up, and I’ll find you a little cage, so I can keep my fuckdoll. Would you like that?”
Lloyd leans over your body, his finger playing with your lips, while his other hand fucks his seed back into you. “The name is Lloyd by the way. I’m gonna have so much fun with you. I still haven’t got to feel you lick my wounds.”

Surprise Getaway
Chris Evans x Reader
Both you and Chris have been working hard lately, so he surprises you with a relaxing vacation. Based on this request
Chris Evans Masterlist, Main Masterlist
“Where are we going?” you ask Chris from your spot in the passenger seat of his car. He smirks and reaches over to put a hand on your thigh.
“I told you, it’s a surprise,” he says sweetly.
“Tell me, tell me, tell me,” you say excitedly, making Chris laugh.
“You’ll find out soon, sweetheart.”
Chris continues to drive and eventually you two get to the airport. You look at him with an excited smile as you both get out of the car.
The flight goes by quickly and when you get to the destination, you still aren’t quite sure what Chris has planned. He leads you to a car outside.
The car pulls up to a beach resort. It’s fancy, you can tell that much from the immediate way you’re offered a drink. When you get to your room, you step out onto the balcony and Chris wraps his arms around you from behind.
“Now, this is a great surprise,” you say as you look out at the ocean in front of you. It’s one of the most beautiful things you’ve ever seen.
“I’m glad you like it, baby,” he says. He leans over your shoulder and kisses your cheek. “Want to go for a swim?”
“Absolutely I do,” you say.
The two of you get changed and walk down to the beach. When you get there, Chris starts running towards the water and you watch on as he gets smacked down by a wave.
“Come on in!” Chris shouts at you as he stands back up.
You go into the water a little more calmly than Chris did and you get past the waves without being knocked down. You smile proudly and Chris wraps you into a hug.
After a while of standing in the water, and taking turns trying to ride the waves, you and Chris settle on a beach chair to relax.
“This is exactly what we needed,” you say. Chris hums in agreement and pulls you closer to him.
“We gotta do this more often, sweetheart,” Chris says.
You kiss him and with a hand on the back of your neck he deepens the kiss. It heats up quickly and you tap his chest to remind him that you’re in public. He pulls away slightly with a laugh.
“Save that for the room, babe,” you say and he blushes a little bit.
“Sorry. I just love you so much,” he says.
“I love you too, Chris,” you reply.
The rest of the vacation is spent with the two of you having some much needed time together to relax and unwind. It’s absolutely wonderful.

Where is Home? (Chris Evans)
Tumblr media
Pairing: Chris Evans x Reader
Words: 3.7K ish
Songs: Bring Me Love - John Legend
Summary: Its Christmas Eve and you are just trying to make your flight home to Boston. And of course nothing goes right. Especially when you accidentally insult a fellow Bostonian… one of its more famous ones…
Warnings: smut, drinking, minor angst,
Banner made by @firefly-graphics
A/N: I wrote this for a Christmas 2021 prompt however this tweet inspired me to share it now. Read on, it’ll make sense…
Tumblr media
RIP iPhone 6.
Tumblr media
It’s like a scene from a damn Christmas movie.  You are running though the concord of the airport in Chicago, desperate to make it to the gate of your flight.  Boston, your final destination, in sight.
“Excuse me, pardon me,” you say as you weave in and out of the crowd.  “64B,” you chant as you look for the right gate. Of course, it’s the one farthest from you but you haul ass, not wanting to miss this flight.
Which you do because the universe just likes to fuck with you.
You see the plane roll back from the window and you let the lone tear roll down your check.
“Is it gone?” You hear from behind you. You wipe the tear, ignore the question and start to talk to the gate attendant to see what you can do to get home. Hoping there is a flight in the next few hours.  And there is nothing.  You would have to wait until the morning to get onto another flight to Boston.  The other attendant is explaining the same things to a man in a cap standing next to you.  A Boston boy from the looks of it, with his Sox cap low on his brow and a Patriots hoodie underneath a leather jacket.
“That’s brave,” you say under your breath as you wait for the attendant to book your seat and give you a replacement ticket.
“What is?”
Shit, he heard you. But you put on a brave face.
“Wearing all that Boston shit in a town that loves its team and hates ours.” You offer a smirk at your words.  You’re a Boston girl through and through and while you work in Chicago, home is where your family is, in Boston.
“Every city hates our teams, that’s just facts,” he replies, still looking down at what you assume is his phone.  Small thing, as you look at it and realized…
“Are you still rocking an iPhone 6?”
You look away and try to not slam your head into the counter.  Your filter was usually better but that one slipped.  The attendant slides you your ticket and an offer for a hotel, which you accept.  You thank them and start to move towards the front of the airport to catch a cab.  You have 18 hours before your 6 am flight and you might as well rest in said hotel room.
You moved through the crowd, not as fast this time.  Just walking away from your disappointment at the flight and your awkward interaction with a fellow Bostonian.  Lost in thought, make a mental note to call your mom, you feel a hand at your elbow, stopping you.  “Is there a problem with my iPhone 6?”
You look at the hand holding you and look up and are hit with what has to be the most beautiful eyes you had ever seen.  You stumble back and realize you had insulted not just a Bostonian but one of the more famous ones. “There’s nothin’ wrong with it.  Just didn’t realize people held on to old tech for so long anymore.”
Chris Evans stared at you longer than you knew was appropriate.  He knew you from somewhere but couldn’t place it.  The curve of your face, your hair, the lips that really captured his attention were all just so familiar.  He was finally able to formulate a response. “I don’t want to lose the pictures I have.  And why change something when it ain’t broke?  Is that good enough for ya, sweetheart?”
The one thing you missed about Boston was that accent.  That damn drawl that always made you weak in the knees.  How every word had its own pronunciation that, as the reporter that you were, had to lose so that the good people of Chicago could understand you. But it slipped out of you to reply.  “Yea, its good enough.  Sorry.”  You shrugged out of his grasp. Or tried to as he held you tighter.
“I know you.”
What a statement.  From a stranger.
“No, you don’t.  Let me go please.” You tried to pull away. “I’m a nobody.”
But he held you tighter.  And then realization hits him.  And he lets go.  “You’re a reporter.”
“One in the same.  Its YN.  See you around Mr. Evans.”  And you take off.  But he’s hot on your heels.  And grabs you again.  Obviously not learning from the mistake.  You stop and look at his hand again.  He lets go but stammers, “I’m so sorry.  Please don’t report this.”
You laugh.  “You obviously don’t know what I report.  It ain’t Hollywood news.” 
He smiles.  “I know that. I mean I know what you do.  You’re good. Really good.  Been watching Hawks games just to listen to your broadcasting.”
You flush. Being the rink reporter for the Blackhawks was your dream job.  Getting to talk to the players, giving insight to the game, showing off your knowledge for the sport that you love, it was almost perfect.  It would be perfect in Boston.  “Thank you,” you whisper.
“You’re welcome.” He smiles that radiant smile that truly made every girl swoon.  “You’re from Boston?”
“Yea, trying to go home for Christmas.”
“So you aren’t going be on for the next few games.” He is enamored with you although you feel like he’s just interrogating you at this point.
“Ahh, no. Missing the Kings and Knights but I will be on for the Boston game.”
“At home? You are?”
You flush again.  He was genuinely interested. In the middle of an airport.  You look around and he can sense the problem.  Too open, too public.  “Right.  Drink?”
You shook your head. “I was headed to my hotel.  Can’t fly home until tomorrow.”
“The Hilton?”  He gave the name of the hotel with a tilt of his head.
“Yeah, take advantage of the free room.”
“Me too.  So, drink at the hotel bar?”  He looked hopeful. “Share a cab there and back in the morning?”
Chris Evans is asking you to go out for a drink.
Who are you to be impolite? “Sure,” you said hesitantly.
Chris smiled big again.  He offered his arm this time.  You looped it through, and he guided you out to the private car that was waiting.
“I thought you said cab,” you said accusingly, eyes narrowing.
“C’mon, would you have said yes if I said I had a private car?”
He wasn’t wrong.  You shook your head, and he opened the door.  You slid into the town car and all the way over.  He got in right behind you and asked the driver to take you to the airport Hilton.  10 minutes later, you climbed out and headed in, removing your heavy coat. 
Chris hung back as you checked into your room.  Dressed in black and gray, he admired how your black turtleneck was tight around the curves of your torso, your grey pencil skirt wrapped your ass perfectly, stopping just above your knees.  Your legs covered in what he assumed were stockings that tucked into the black boots you wore.  He observed your necklace, a watch, and earrings but no rings.  He saw you turn back to him, room key sliding into your pocket.  He took in your face again.  Simple, classic, hair up in a ponytail, beautiful.
He moved to check in and asked for a room right next to yours. But you were too busy looking down, fiddling with your watch, a nervous habit, to overhear the request.
“Ready?”
You looked up to his crystal blue eyes.  “Yeah, what floor?”
“10.”
“Same.” You roll your eyes at the coincidence.
You headed into the elevator, trying to maintain some space.  Because the man is intoxicating all by himself. He had shed himself of his leather jacket, staying in the Boston hoodie and hat.  The beard was neat and trimmed. He let go of his rollaway to stretch for a moment, his sweater raising slowing along with his shirt.  She could see a flash of taut skin right above his jeans and a red belt standing out.  You looked away and tried not to blush.  A flash of desire ran through your body when thoughts of what he could do with that belt ran in your mind. Jesus, had it really been that long?
Chris knew what he was doing.  You were sexy as hell, a little Aphrodite, drawing him in.  She was a pistol, he thought.  Perfect, Boston bound, into sports and sassy.
They made it to their individual rooms and went into.  The room was simple, just the necessities.  Bed, TV, towels and an extra door.  Odd, you thought, but whatever. You went to the bathroom and washed your face, reapplied some of the makeup and went to lay down.  The bed was comfortable at least.  You almost dozed until you heard a knock.  You went to the door but found no one there.  But the knock came again.  You looked at the extra door.  And again, there was a knock.  You opened and there stood Chris, void of his sweater this time, just a black t-shirt, jeans, the red belt, hat and boots. He smiled when you answered. “Ready for that drink?”
“Sure,” you grabbed your purse as he entered your room. You made sure you had your room key and headed downstairs.  As soon as the elevator doors opened, Chris placed his hand on the small of your back and guided you to the hotel bar.  Seated at a table in the corner, a waiter came by.  You ordered a gin martini and Chris ordered a beer.
“How long have you been in Chicago?”
“Three years. Being a commentator for a hockey club had been my dream for years.  Its almost perfect.”
“How is it not perfect?”  Chris leaned in to hear you.
“Because it’s not Boston.”  The drinks made it to the table, and you took a sip, needing the liquid courage.
“I mean I get why Boston is so awesome.  But why?”
“Home is where my family is.  My home is in Boston.  I wouldn’t have to travel so much.  Maybe I could settle down and have my own family.”  He opened his mouth to speak but you stopped him.  “I get it, I could do that in Chicago but,” you sigh, “it’s not Boston.”
He stared at you again.  You really were perfect. “So, you are commentating in Boston?”
“Yeah, for a try out. If I can nail it, I can move for the next season.” You stare off in the distance, watching the highlights for last nights game.
“So why wait until Christmas Eve to travel?”
“Why did ya wait?” Your accent showing though.
Chris laughed hard.  “Yea, I guess I earned that one.  I had a meeting with a producer and a shoot for an ad.  Guess I just didn’t plan it correctly.”
“At least you’re honest.  A headline for a story during my next broadcast.  Captain America is bad at planning.”  You waived your hand like seeing a banner.  “Breaking News at 11.”  You giggle and Chris laughs with you.
“Sweetheart, you know you will blow all the fans out of the water with that.  He is the man with a plan.”
“A badly executed plan but whatever.”  You take another sip.  Chris watches as your cheeks become rosier with the alcohol, just adding to the beauty of your face.
“You didn’t answer my question, sweetheart.  Why wait until Christmas Eve?”
“I had the game last night and then I figured I just fly in like Santa.  It wasn’t a bad plan until my ex decided to show up at my apartment.  Six months later and you would think he would get it in his thick skull we were done.” This statement caused you to down your martini.  
“Its what you get for dating a Chicago boy.” Chris tsked at you.
“That’s fair.”
The drinks kept going, Chris insisting next that you should eat. You got to know Chris better over a Christmas Eve dinner of pretzels and mozzarella sticks. 
“If you could have one wish for Christmas that would absolutely come true, what would it be?” you ask.
He sat back and looked at you.  He took a long swallow of beer.  “I would like to find a girl and have her raise a family with me in Sudbury.  I’ve been lookin’ and I can’t seem to find the right one.”
You could see the regret in his eyes, of not having the dream.  But you understood, its what you wanted.  You didn’t say anything, knowing anything you said would just be taken as either sympathetic or made him feel like shit.
Chris cleared his throat.  “How about you?  Any wish?”
“It’s the same as you.  Wish I could find that too.  My problem is that most guys can’t handle a woman who would be the bread winner. They would want me to change my career or be a stay at home.  I worked really hard to get here.  I wouldn’t want to change it for the world.”
“I can see that. Sucks because there is nothing sexier than a woman in charge.”  He sent you a smirk that had you been standing, would have made you weak in the knees.
He continued to get to know you.  But when you looked at it said 9PM on your watch, you decided to call it a night. He walked you back to your room and rubbed his neck as you tried to open the door.  Finally successful, you turned to look at him.  The Adonis in front of you.  “Thank you for making this Christmas Eve ok, since we couldn’t be with our families.”
“It was my pleasure, YN.  See you in the morning for that ride?”
“Yes, of course.”  And you slid into your room.  You checked your phone, and you had a video message from your mom.
We miss you tonight, but we can’t see you tomorrow, your family said together.  All of them jammed into the video. 
You felt the tear fall. You missed your family but you knew, 12 more hours and you would be home. You changed into your silk pajama top and shorts and got ready to climb into bed, setting an alarm to get you up.  You let the emotions wash over you, your pillow now wet with your tears. A knock startled you and you knew it was Chris.  Without thinking, you opened the door.
And he was standing there like before.  Except there were only abs that you could see, the jeans hanging low with that damn red belt still looped around.  You swallowed and looked up at Chris.
“Are you ok?”
You nod.  “I just miss home,” you say.  “Its been a long year and I’m feeling more alone.” You wipe your tears away. “Did you need something Chris?”
“I needed to do this before I lost my nerve,” he said. He put his hand on your neck and pulled you in for a kiss that should have set you on fire.  His lips moved perfectly against yours, and he ran his tongue on your lips, asking for entrance.  You let him in, and you could taste the beer he was drinking.  You moaned and pressed yourself against him. He wrapped his arms around you, needing you closer.  Finally, you came up for air. He pressed his forehead to yours, not wanting to let go.
“Chris,” you whispered, “what are you doing?”
“You’re perfect, YN.  And you are everything I have been looking for.” He kissed you again gently.
Your mind swirled, still slightly inebriated from the martinis but now drunk on Chris. “I…”
“Spend the night with me sweetheart.  I wanna wake up on Christmas with you.”
Fourteen words.  Fourteen indications that this wasn’t a dream.  He was perfect, everything about him was perfect.
“Yes.”
Its all he needed.  He grabbed the key card you left on the dresser, picked you up behind your thighs and took you into his room.  He sat while you straddled him and kissed him again.
This has to be the craziest thing you ever done. 
A one-night stand with Chris Evans.
You let it go, not wanting to dwell on the fact you would only get this man for one night.  And he can sense that you are getting nervous or worried.  He pulled back, to look at your eyes, lust blown, void of makeup, even more beautiful than he can imagine.
“Be with me.”
It’s a ghost of a whisper you think you can hear before he attacks your neck with kisses and gentle bites.  You relish in the attention, never wanting it to end. You grind down into his lap and his growls, feeling your heat on his cock. He stands, lifting you at the same time and turning to lay you down on his bed.  The silk top slides slightly, giving him a peek at your hardening nipple.  He groaned and bit the nub through the silk, enjoying the moan he pulled from you.
“Be with me.”
You can’t focus on the words as he plays with your body, knowing exactly how to make you squirm and moan, as if he has known it for your entire life. You are his guitar, playing the notes to bring you out.  When he skated over your shorts on your clit, you cry out in ecstasy, the sensation already building in your core.
Chris kneels down at the edge of the bed and let’s his fingers play with the top of your shorts, looking up at you, waiting.  You nod, no words needed to give permission.  He kisses your belly button and then around your hip bones, softly, feather like as he slowly pulls down your shorts. His mouth moves to kiss your thighs, skipping where you now needed him.  "Chris," you whisper.
“So fakin’ beautiful,” you hear as he places the first kiss, you want to cry out again but you cover your mouth.  “Don’t hold back,” he says, “I want to hear you.” His tongue licked up your slit, taking no mercy. He needed taste you, feel you, make you his.
“Oh god, please.” You squirmed and Chris laid a heavy arm over your abdomen, pinning you to the mattress.  “Chris, please.”
“Tell me what you want, gorgeous.”  He doesn’t stop, he doesn’t want to.
“I need you.” You just had to be honest.  You wanted him.  But was it just for the night or forever?  Suddenly Boston was even more important.  Because Boston was home.  And he was at home.
He slipped up to kiss you, allowing you to taste yourself.  And you feel like you are hearing things.
“Be with me.”
No, its still a dream. Until…
“Come home with me.”
It’s the siren’s call you needed.  And then Chris thrusted into you, and you cried, tears of joy at the fullness, the pure, raw power he used to make you feel like you were on cloud nine.  He waited for you to be comfortable before you tilted your hips up and he moved. Slowly at first and then harder, with more passion than you have ever felt. He hid his face in your neck, listening to you sigh in his ear, you listen to the little grunts he gave.
He could feel you tighten around him.  Heaven, pure heaven.  You fit together like puzzle pieces.  He never wanted to leave.  “Baby, tell me you’re close?”
“So close, oh, so close.”
“Good.”  He sped up and nibbled on your neck.  That was your undoing.  You came with a long moan, quivering and pulsing around him.  It took two, three more thrusts before he came as well.  He slowed his movements, riding out the high.  He lifted up to see your blissful expression, matching his own.  And he says it louder…
“Be with me.”
You know you heard it this time.  What was he doing? “Chris?”
“I found you and I don’t want to let go.  Come home with me.” He gave little Eskimo kisses, causing you to giggle. “I’ve been waiting for you.”
Logic comes to your brain. “I live in Chicago.”
“And I have a feeling you’ll nail your audition for Boston.  If not,” he sighed, “I guess I need a better coat for Chicago.”
“Chicago?”
“Because you’re right.  Home is where your family is.  But right now, home is also where you are. I don’t want you to change who you are.  Because I’m falling for the girl who is who she is.”
You start to get up; the sudden declaration makes you nervous.  How could someone fall so hard so fast?  You reach for your clothes. But it hits you. He’s everything you ever wanted.  He didn’t want to change you, just adapt with you. And it makes you ache. Because home is where he is.  You turn to face him, seeing his face look sad at the thought of you leaving.  But you lean in and press a kiss to his nose, causing him to smile. “I’m not saying that I would change my world for you, I’m just changing my perspective. But maybe we could give us a chance.”
He smiles and kisses you, bring you back down to the bed.  The clock hits midnight.  Its still like a Christmas movie, finding love on Christmas.
The morning comes too quickly, waking in each other’s arms. You and Chris head back to the airport, holding hands.
What a difference 18 hours makes.
Chris talks to the attendant and gets you seated together in first class.  It’s a quick flight, just over two hours. But he never let’s go, afraid you’ll disappear.  As the plane begins to land at snowy Logan International, he turns to you.  “Please don’t leave me.”
You cup his cheek and smile.  “Home… is wherever you are.” You kiss him gently.  “Ready to meet my dad?”
He leans into your warmth.  “Ready to meet Scott?” He kisses your palm as you nod. And he looks into your eyes. “I finally found my home… with you.”
