The warm sunlight poured in through the windows, casting a gentle glow over you and Vanessa as you snuggled in your shared bed. Your bodies were entwined beneath the soft covers, and as the light stirred you awake, you nuzzled your face into Vanessa's chest. She responded by pulling you closer and resting her head on top of yours. Just as you were about to drift back to sleep, a loud noise jolted you both awake. With puzzled expressions, you sat up and looked at the bedside table where the noise was coming from.
"Did you forget to turn off your alarm?" you asked, watching as Vanessa reached over to turn it off.
"I must have," she groaned, hitting the alarm button to silence it.
You got out of bed, ready to start your day. Vanessa watched as you gathered a towel, one of her oversized shirts, and some comfortable clothing before she spoke up.
"Where are you going?" she asked, still sounding sleepy.
"I'm going to freshen up, I feel like I've bled all over the sheets," you replied, your voice slightly hoarse from just waking up.
Vanessa hummed in response, rearranging the sheets you had been lying on. She looked up at you with a concerned expression.
"There's no blood, my love," she reassured you, causing you to smile at her thoughtfulness.
"Still, I think it would be best if I shower now," you said with a hint of amusement. Vanessa moved to sit on your side of the bed and reached out for you to come closer.
"Please, can you stay in bed a little longer? If you happen to bleed, I'll clean it up," she pleaded, her voice still muffled from burying her face in your stomach.
"I don't want to get up right now," she whined, and you couldn't help but giggle at her adorable pout.
"It's already 12 pm, love. We've already missed half the day," you reminded her, causing her to groan.
"So what? We've worked hard all week, we deserve these few days off," she argued, crossing her arms and looking at you with a defeated expression.
"That's true," you agreed with a soft smile. You took a step back, causing her to let go of you, and she pouted even more.
"But you know what else is fun to do when we're both on our monthly cycle?" you asked, a mischievous glint in your eye.
"What?" Vanessa grunted, her arms still crossed.
"Taking a shower and baking a cake with the person you love most," you said, watching as her eyes widened in surprise.
"But if you'd rather stay in bed all day, that's fine too," you added with a shrug, before turning and walking towards the bathroom. You could hear Vanessa rustling around in the bedroom before she ran after you with a cheeky smile.
"I thought you wanted to sleep in," you teased, looking at her playfully as you took off your shirt.
"I wanted to sleep in with you. Plus, I don't want to leave you alone while you shower," she said, giving you a kiss on the cheek before undressing alongside you.
"Oh totally," you replied with a laugh, turning on the water in the shower.
✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥
"Okay, so now we need four room-temperature eggs that have been separated," Vanessa calls out to you as you grab the eggs from the counter and a bowl.
"Wait, separated? Do you mean in different bowls?" you ask, looking at the eggs and the one bowl you had taken out.
Vanessa laughs and you look up at her, confused. She shakes her head with a smile and puts down the baking book she was reading from before moving to stand behind you.
"No, my love, separatied means separating the yolk from the egg whites. Can you hand me an egg?" she playfully whispers in your ear.
You hand her an egg and she stands next to you, cracking it against the counter and separating the yolk from the egg white by passing it between the two shells until only the yolk remains.
"See? It's not that difficult," she says with a smile, breaking you from your trance. You return the smile and say, "Yeah, I've got this."
As you continue to separate the eggs and put them in the bowl, Vanessa moves around the kitchen, preparing the other ingredients.
"Done!" you exclaim, looking at Vanessa. She curses under her breath and you drop the empty egg shells in shock. Vanessa had accidentally dropped the flour on her head while reaching for it on the top shelf. You cover your mouth to stifle the laugh that wants to escape as you watch her.
"Baby, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I was just excited to do this right and-" Before you can finish apologizing, Vanessa throws the rest of the flour on you, causing you to gasp in surprise. You stand in shock as she laughs.
"Nessa! What the hell?" you exclaim, surprised. Vanessa continues to laugh as you grab one of the egg yolks from the counter and smear it on her face. She stops laughing as you rub the yolk on her face, then wipes it away to look at you with a playful glare.
"Now you're in trouble," she says, grabbing the rest of the yolks and smushing them on your face. You groan and wipe the yolk off, spitting out any that got into your mouth.
Vanessa continues to laugh as you complain about the yolk in your mouth. She runs to get towels and two glasses of water before returning and handing you a towel. You wipe your face and apologize for laughing, then pick up one of the glasses of water and pour it on Vanessa's head, causing her to gasp and close her eyes.
"Y/n!" she shouts, and you laugh as you run away. Vanessa wipes her face with her sleeve before chasing after you and tackling you onto the couch.
"Hey, stop! You're going to get the couch wet and dirty," you say, laughing as she tickles you. Vanessa finally stops and walks away for a moment, giving you time to catch your breath. But before you can, she comes back with the other glass of water. You try to protest, but she throws the water on you before you can finish. You groan as she giggles and says, "Now we're even."
"Let's go finish this cake," Vanessa says, laughing as she walks back to the kitchen. You call out that you'll get her back and fall back onto the now-wet couch, not caring if it gets any dirtier.
❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥
You lay snuggled up against Vanessa on the couch as an old romance show played on the television. She had her arms wrapped around you as you picked at the remnants of cake on your plate, gazing absentmindedly at the TV. Vanessa's lips snapped you out of your daydream as she planted a soft kiss on your head, causing you to smile and look up at her.
"Hi," you say with a smile, and she smiles back before nodding towards the plate in your hand.
"Are you going to finish that?" she asks, and you look down at the plate before shaking your head and playing with the plastic fork.
"Nah, do you want the last bite?" you offer, looking back up at her. She nods eagerly, and you hand her the plate.
"Can you feed it to me, though?" she asks with a mischievous glint in her eye. You raise an eyebrow, wondering what she's up to, but ultimately nod and move to straddle her. As you hand her the fork, she grabs your leg and pulls it over her waist, holding onto your waist as you lean down to feed her the last bite of cake.
"This is extra, you could have just taken the plate from me," you comment, slightly annoyed but unable to hide your smile.
"I know, but you look cute when you're flustered," Vanessa teases, smirking up at you. You playfully roll your eyes before planting a quick kiss on her lips.
"Let's go shower now," you say, trying to get up, but Vanessa's grip on your waist tightens.
"One more kiss," she pleads, and you sigh, knowing she won't let you go until you comply. You give her a tight-lipped smile before leaning down to give her another quick kiss, but she surprises you by deepening the kiss, her tongue exploring your mouth. You moan against her lips as you taste the cake on her tongue.
As the kiss intensifies, you feel Vanessa's hand move from the back of your head to rest on your cheek, and she breaks the kiss, her thumb lightly tracing your bottom lip. You catch your breath, looking down at her with a dazed expression.
"Do you still want to shower?" she asks with a playful glint in her eye, and you shyly nod, hiding your face in the crook of her neck.
"But we should take one together to save water," you suggest, your voice muffled against her skin. Vanessa hums in agreement, her voice teasing as she replies, "Sure, just because you want to save water."
You can't help but smile against her neck as you lift your head to look at her with a mock serious expression.
"Vanessa, that's gross. We both have our periods," you say, feigning disgust at what she was suggesting. But Vanessa just shrugs, not fazed by your comment.
"So what?" she replies with a smirk, and you can't help but laugh at her nonchalant response.
✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵
Tbh idk if this is short or long but I can tell you it sucks ass but I’m so fucking tired with school and shit I got lazy at the ending and I’m so sorry abt that 😭 I promise future fics won’t be this ass.

First time
Summary: You and Bucky have your first time together after Tony’s birthday party.
Pairing: Bucky Barnes X F!Reader
Warnings: Fluff, my rubbish writing (it’s a warning), more fluff, smut, fluffy smut, bucky being an absolute simp and angel.
Word count: ~2700 words
Tumblr media
Walking down the stairs step by step into the giant ballroom rented by and for Tony for his birthday. All the staff was invited and the usual people that came to a birthday. (Almost) everyone had a date and Bucky had asked you to come. 
Tony told you to wear the most beautiful dress you had because; 1. It was his birthday and 2. He said you needed to impress Bucky. You and Bucky were already dating for 
A little over a year and Tony knew that but always made that kind of comment. You and Bucky still hadn’t sex and only shared passionate kisses every once in a while. It was okay by the both of you but lately, things got more passionate. 
People were amazed at the fact that you were living together too. You hadn’t done it yet because you were still focusing on Bucky’s repair of his mental health, it kept getting better and he felt like his old self again. 
You were so proud of how he was doing and told him that every chance you got. You sought Bucky in the crowd and locked eyes with his steel blues in the middle of the room.
Tony, who was at the microphone announcing the activities, broke off mid-sentence to turn everyone’s attention to you. He might be one of your best friends, but sometimes you really hated him. 
“Y/n don’t stress ‘em, keep looking at that piece of eye candy you managed to conquer,” he said and the crowd laughed. 
“I was planning on it,” you whispered more to yourself than to anyone else. As you reached the bottom of the stairs where Natasha bid her arm as support due to the last being higher. You let go of her arm and thanked her silently and continues to walk towards Bucky. 
All the dates made their entrance like that, but now Tony made more comments than ever. You and Tony had a long history, going back to when you were close to death and he saved you, leading you to join the avengers when they discovered you were an empath. 
It’s how you met Bucky and started dating within a few years of knowing each other. Now, a year later, you’re walking toward him and still got butterflies. This night was perfect already as you kissed him softly and waited for the music to start as the last date came down the stairs, a man in a suit with the trousers replaced for a skirt of the same material. 
You two danced the night away before and after dinner. 
“Bucky, after this song I really need to go to the bathroom,” you said softly. He nodded and when the song finished he didn’t let go of your hand and walked with you to the lady’s room. He patiently waited outside and held a few men wanting to go in out of it, knowing their intentions and knowing they weren’t good. Once you finished and walked out you took his arm with a smile and walked over to tony. 
“Y/N! Bucky!” Tony drunkenly said and skipped over to you. 
“Hey! Are you okay?” you asked as he smiled the smile he had when he was drunk.
 “Yeah, yeah, we wanna go to McDonald’s but Pepper says we can’t,” he grumbled like a baby. 
“Why not?” you asked and looked for Pepper and found her in two seconds standing next to him. 
“He can’t just leave his own birthday party,” she said. 
“No one’s talking to me who isn’t going with us,” he argued. 
“What if you announce it?” you suggested and Tony agreed. 
“Fine, but I’ll do it, you’re too drunk.” Pepper walked away to the stage before grabbing everyone’s attention and said they were heading out, but everyone could stay as long as they want. 
The group (Steve and Bruce without dates as they didn’t have one in the first place, Thor and Clint with dates they picked up at the ball, Nat going with Wanda, Tony with Pepper and Bucky with you along with a few others who decided they were still hungry.) 
Steve and Thor weren’t familiar enough with the computers to order so they went to the checkout. Bucky was really hungry but didn’t want to be the only one with a lot of food, but when he saw the receipts and the time it took to order for the two blondes he didn’t mind anymore. 
“Y/n, I don’t know how this works,” he whispered in your ear. He noticed a few men in the kitchen looking at you and he wrapped an arm around you protectively. 
“Bucky, I don’t want them, I want you, and I need to know what you want to eat,” you said without looking away from the screen. 
“What you’re having, I don’t know anything from the menu,” he said and kept glaring at the men that were ogling you. 
“No, I can feel that you’re hungry and stop looking at them Bucky, I am in love with you, not them. So, turn your attention to me,” you said and grabbed his chin, knowing he didn’t listen. 
“What?” he asked. 
“Give me a gentle kiss, please,” you told him more than asked. He leaned down and gave you a passionate kiss, but it still being light. you pulled back and rested your forehead against his. 
“I only want you, please remember that. Now, what do you want to eat?” you asked again. You helped him through the menu and he ordered what he wanted as you put in your usual order, chicken nuggets, fries and a milkshake. 
Once you paid for your order you joined the others at the higher table in the restaurant. The table was small for the big group and people were sitting on each other’s lap. There was only one stool left and the first thing Bucky did was sit down and pull you in his lap. Bucky joined the conversation between Sam and Steve as you started talking with Pepper and Wanda. Pepper sitting in Tony’s lap and Wanda in Natasha’s. 
As your food arrived, Bucky had you wrapped in his arms. As you were leaning over to talk to Wanda and Pepper, you unknowingly ground your bum against Bucky. You only noticed when he grabbed your thigh and now continued a little on purpose. 
You could feel him growing against you, revelling in the feeling. You all eventually finished eating, people started to go home, including you and Bucky. He kept you in front of him to hide his situation. 
“Did you have a good time?” you asked as you got in the car and tried to find a good radio station. 
“Absolutely, you looked wonderful tonight by the way,” he said and headed to the highway. Just as he said that Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton started playing. 
“What a coincidence. I love this song,” you said and turned up the volume. As your hand pulled away from the volume button his hand caught yours and he brought it to his lips and placed a kiss on your knuckles. You returned the gesture and he placed his hand on your thigh. 
One you arrived at your shared house you walked in and threw your keys on the table and walked toward the bedroom, his hand in yours as you led him. J.A.R.V.I.S. turned on the cozy lights. 
“J.A.R.V.I.S. can you put on some slow music and leave this room tonight?” You asked. 
“Yes, of course Madam,” his voice sounded through the room and a little ding indicated he was gone. 
“I had a splendid time tonight James,” you said with a smile as you wrapped your arms around his neck. 
“Me too,” he smiled and put his hands on your hips. You reached up and kissed him. It was slow and passionate but also very gentle. 
“I’m ready,” he whispered as he let go for a second. 
“I know you haven’t done anything more than kiss me or tease me a bit, but I’m ready. I’m doing fine now and you have nothing to worry about,” he said and kissed you again. 
“I’m ready too,” you whispered and smiled at him. 
“Can I take the jacket off?” He asked and when you nodded he slid his jacket he’d gives to you off of your shoulders. He laid it on the bed bench as you let you hair free from its position. Bucky kissed you again with a smile as he looked at you. “I can’t believe you’re mine,” he whispered. 
“And yours only,” you whispered back. 
“Can I-“ You broke him off gently. 
“You can do anything, if I don’t like it, I’ll tell you,” you smiled. 
“As long as you tell me, I’ll stop immediately,” he said with a smile. He kissed down your neck and collarbone and slipped off the band of your dress. He went back to your lips and did the same with the other strap. 
He returned to your lips once again, but pulled you closer by wrapping his arms around your back so his hands could pull down the zipper. The dress fell down and you stepped out of it, Bucky picked it up while keeping eye contact and laid it over the jacket. He grabbed your arms and held them in his wide front your body so he could admire all that he could see. 
“You’re stunning,” he said. You smiled and pulled him in softly by his tie and loosened it during the kiss. You took it off and started on the buttons, struggling with a few, him helping as he laughed softly. When all the buttons were loose and your eyes went wide at the body that was revealed you slid the fabric off him. 
“Wow,” you gasped. You weren’t thinking about how fit he was and how you were the opposite. You weren’t thinking  ‘what if he doesn’t like my extra fat?’ Because you knew he loved you as you were deep down. Bucky covered his face to hide his blush and you were quick to pull them away. 
“None of that, come here with that beautiful face,” you smiled and peppered his face in kisses. He laughed softly and lifted you with ease and walked over to the bed and laid you down. 
“You’re wearing too much, take that off,” you demanded playfully and he slid his trousers off and put it on the bench too. You were laying diagonally on the bed as it was the only way you both fit with all head and toe on the mattress. You made out for a long time, hands exploring each other. 
“Y/n, I love you,” Bucky whispered. 
“I love you too,” you smiled and attached your lips again. Bucky kissed doen your chest, following the line of your bra and reached behind you to take it off, failing to get the hooks unhooked. 
“Let me help,” you laughed and detached it. He peeled it off you and threw it aside, immediately starting to kiss and suck your nipple. You let out a breathy moan as his other hand toyed with your other hardening nipple. After he’d given your other nipple the same treatment, he moved down your body, leaving a trail of kisses over all your insecurities. 
Slowly, he removed your panties after admiring how the fabric covered your skin. He kissed along your thigh, lower stomach, and everywhere except where you longed for him. You were already shivering from his light touch, but you needed more. You parted your legs for him, an invitation four him to come closer, which he gladly did. He attached his lips to your clit and sucked lightly, making you make sounds that were music to his ears. 
He parted his lips more and sucked harder, rubbing that that was in his mouth with his tongue heavenly. His hands rose  up your body to your breasts as he fondled with them until you shattered. Calling his name like a prayer. He carried you through your orgasm until you stopped him and sat up. 
“Take this off love?” You asked and he obeyed. You pushed him to lean back on his hands as you sat in his lap, both now fully undressed. 
“You’re the most beautiful human being I’ve ever seen,” you whispered. He looked up at you, lost for words and only love in his eyes. You kissed his lips, down his neck and to the skin where it fused with the vibranium. The rough scars were still there but a lot less red than they used to be. 
You averted your attention towards his abs and eventually to his dick. You stroked along the length, which had surprised you when you first saw it, and you were still stressing about how it’s supposed to fit. When your thumb went over his tip, Bucky let out a whiny moan. 
“You okay?” He asked softly between heavy pants. 
“Yeah, dunno how it’ll fit though,” you smiled. 
“It doesn’t have to go all in,” ge smiled and kissed the top of your head as ge dat up. 
“Do you mind if we use some lube? Not that I’m not turned on or anything, I just don’t want it to hurt,” you said softly and he nodded. 
“No problem, do we have any though?” You reach behind you for your nightstand and in the back of the drawer was a little tube of lube. You squirted a small amount on your hand and spread it over his cock, leaving him panting again as you rose your hips and lined him up with your entrance. 
You had already discussed with him why you wouldn’t be needing condoms and would only use them if he really wanted to. You got checked before youo started dating him and hadn’t done it with someone else since, and you were on the pill long before you began dating him. 
You slowly lowered your hips and he guided your hips and kissed you to ease any discomfort. When you were all the way down, you stayed like that for a while, just going back to kissing him and roaming his body. 
You were amazed by the voluptuous abs on the beautiful man under you. You traced the muscle slightly with your fingers while starting to slowly rotate your hips. He wrapped you up in his arms, holding you like you were the most fragile thing in earth. 
The kiss wasn’t a kiss anymore as it was more a mess of open mouths and breathy moans. He was already nearing his climax when you were just starting to build yours. He laid you on your back and started to thrust slowly in and out of you while showering you in compliments. 
One hand traced from your chin past the valley of your breasts and down your stomach to eventually rub your clit. You sighed out in pleasure as the speed of his fingers increased. 
He kept slowing his pace when he felt you clench around him, for him being a signal you were close. This continued for a long time until you both were so close every time he tried ti slow it wouldn’t help anymore. 
“I’m close,” you whispered. 
“Me too,” he whispered back. His lips went to your breadths and sucked your nipple and increased speed again. 
You moaned his name again and again until you climaxed again. Since his mission of letting you cum first was succeded, he let go too. Your hands in his hair scratched his scalp so good than it was easy to let go. When he came to a stop, you smiled at him with an after sex haze your eyes. 
“You’re divine,” you said. 
“You too,” he said and lifted you off the bed. 
“Where are you taking me,” you laughed. 
“I’ve got to clean you up,” he laughed and put you on the bathroom countertop. 
“Oeh cold,” you said when you made contact with the marble. Bucky pulled out and cleaned up with some tissues and got a pair of underwear on you after washing you lightly with a washcloth. After he rinsed the cloth you took it and cleaned him too.
He laid you down on the bed and joined you, laying his head between your breasts, calming him down and lulling him to sleep. You soon after followed, not before whispering to him how much you love him.

Masterlist
Tumblr media
Both of you being famous wasn't easy with you being a singer and Sebastian being an actor. Especially when you wanted to keep your relationship a secret and you were quite younger than him. You have been dating for a while now and you couldn't be more in love with him. He was your muse for many of your songs, but the fans didn't know that. They did notice though that you started writing more love songs than before. You got questions about it almost every day, but you never answered them. They had their speculations, but you never confirmed any of it. It might be selfish, but you wanted to keep him all to yourself and both of you agreed to wait a little more before going public. He was promoting his new movie and you didn't want people to think that you announced your relationship only to give more publicity to it. But sometimes the universe doesn't care what you want.
It was a normal day, like any other, when you were at Sebastian's house and you started craving some McDonald's. The weather was nice for the time being past 10 pm so you decided to go out to buy it instead of ordering. It was dark already so you weren't afraid that anybody would see or recognize you. It was a five minute walk from his house and you thought it would be nice have a short walk. You waited for Sebastian to lock the front door then started walking down the street hand in hand. It probably wasn't the best idea, but you really didn't think that any paparazzi would be near you. You went into the fast food place to buy what you needed, then started walking back to his place, laughing at a story he was telling you. You loved these late night walks, the dark giving you a sense of comfort.
"Baby" he stopped walking as still giggled, making you stop as well. You turned to him, eyebrows raised in question, a smile still on your face. "I love you" he blurted out, intently looking at you, waiting for your reaction. He never said it before, despite dating for almost 6 months now. You didn't say it either yet, not wanting to make him uncomfortable or rush him. After his last relationship he wanted to be extra sure when saying the three words and you understood him. Your heart skipped a few beats at his confession, the smile widening on your lips.
"I love you too, Seb." you beamed, stepping closer to him and pulling him into a hug.
"Thank god." he mumbled into your hair, making you pull away.
"What do you mean 'thank god'? How could I not feel the same way about you? Haven't you heard the songs I wrote lately?" you asked jokingly in disbelief, but knowing he didn't mean it like that.
"You know what I mean" he blushed under the light of the streetlamp.
"I do" your arms going around his neck you pulled him down into a deep kiss. When you broke apart you walked back to his house to finally eat.
What you didn't realize was that there was a paparazzi following you, getting the perfect angle of your kiss, taking a series of photos.
The next morning you were woken up by your phone essentially exploding with calls and messages. You groaned as you reached for it, barely being able to touch it as Sebastian refused to let go of your waist.
"Why is your phone waking us up at the ass crack of dawn?" he groaned, rubbing his eyes.
"I don't know" you unlocked it to see at least 25 calls from your manager and another few from friends and family. Around the same amount of texts were sent as well, making you sit up in bed, confused. "Something is wrong." he sat up at your tone to look at your phone. You dialed your manager, putting it on speaker. She picked up right away.
"What the fuck are you doing?" she almost screamed into the device, making Sebastian look at you.
"I was sleeping. It's 7 am." you explained.
"Care to tell me why is you and Sebastian kissing plastered on every news site on the internet right now?" your whole world stopped at her words.
"What did you say?" Sebastian spoke up as you were still frozen in your spot.
"Oh your partner in crime is there too? Great. I don't have to say this twice." she was being sarcastic, but you didn't care. You just wanted an explanation.
"Tell us what is happening, please" you pleaded.
"There are multiple pictures of you going around. They are claiming that they took them last night." she explained, but that wasn't enough.
"What pictures?" you asked.
"Pictures of you holding hands and kissing." you ran your hand through your hair.
"Fuck" Sebastian sighed.
"That's an understatement." you heard shuffling on the other side. "So I recommend you guys figure out what you are going to do and do it real fast because it is getting out of hand."
"Yeah, sure we will do that." he took the phone from you. "Thanks."
"Just doing my work." she ended the call with a sigh. Sebastian looked at you as you stared at your legs, deep in thought.
"Hey" he brushed his hand up your back, shaking you out of your mind.
"Yeah?" you looked at him, startled.
"We need to do something." he explained.
"Yeah, yeah, sure. What should we do? Go public? I mean we don't really have any other choice." you furrowed your brows.
"Do you want that?" he wanted you to be hundred percent okay with whatever you were going to do.
"Yes, I just hoped it wouldn't happen like this." you sighed. "Do you want that?" you asked back.
"Yes. We already talked about going public so I guess we will have to do it now." he shrugged.
"How are we doing this then?" you stood up to get dressed, getting ready for the day.
"Posting a video on TikTok?" he grinned.
"Absolutely not. We are not posting on Tiktok." you shook your head, laughing.
"So where do you want it? Facebook?" he raised his eyebrows, joking.
"No." you laughed. "I was thinking about posting a pic on Instagram." you threw out the idea. Both of you used the app a lot so it would be the best choice.
"Okay, let's find a picture." he also stood up.
"Ah-ah" you held out your hand to stop him. "You talk to your manager while I pick out a picture to post on my account and you can post one on yours if you want to. Mine is going to be a surprise." you grinned, already having one in mind. It was your favorite picture of you, taken by a friend without your knowledge. You were in a parking lot at the beach, you sitting on the hood of his car while he was standing between your legs, kissing you. There was a second picture, where you were leaning your forehead against his, both of you laughing at your friends shouting at you to get a room. Both of your faces were clearly seen on them so you decided to post both of them.
'All of the songs are about you' the caption read. In seconds your notifications were blowing up with comments from fans. You didn't want to read them, because you knew how people on the internet could get and you knew that you being younger than him would bother some of them. Sebastian came out of the bedroom to sit next to you.
"You posted it?" he asked, taking out his phone.
"Yep" you smiled. You leaned your head against his shoulder as he opened the app, waiting for his reaction. He immediately searched up your name and tapped on the photo. His thumb froze on the little heart as he read the caption. He put the phone down and grabbed your chin to pull you to his soft lips in a kiss.
"I love you." he mumbled into your lips.
"I love you too." you giggled. He pulled away to pick up the phone to leave a comment. 'If I wrote songs mine would be about you too' you snorted at it. "You are cute"
-
A few days later you had enough courage to check the comments people were leaving online. Maybe it wasn't the best idea.
'Jesus. Isn't he like 12 years older than her?? Gross'
'He is definitely using her lmao but I can't blame him, get that coin king'
'Y'all think she calls him daddy in the bedroom kjsdnhs'
'She is just using him to write songs'
There were nice comments as well, calling you cute together and wishing you well. The mean comments always stuck with you more though and you didn't want Sebastian to read them. It was enough that you went through them. Both of you were a little insecure about your age gap, but you loved each other so you helped the other through the harder times.
You got to his house and walked in as he asked you to not to knock anymore. You found him sitting on his couch, phone in hand. Hoping that he wasn't doing what you thought he was doing you sat down next to him. He had instagram open.
"Seb" you sighed, taking the phone out of his hands.
"What? I just wanted to see what they were saying." he tried to defend himself.
"You shouldn't read these." you shook your head. "So you wanna watch a movie?" you changed the subject. He agreed with your suggestion.
The movie had been playing for a half an hour when he pulled away from your cuddling.
"What if they are right?" his voice was so quiet so almost didn't hear him. You paused the movie to look at him.
"What do you mean?" you asked, confused by his sudden outburst.
"The comments saying that you could do so much better than me" he kept looking at his feet. You sat up and grabbed his chin to turn his head towards you, your heart breaking at his words. This was exactly why you didn't want him to read them.
"Baby" you sighed. "They are not right. Not even by far. I could not find anyone better than you even if I tried. But I'm not trying because I have you with me and you are the best thing that happened to me in a long time. So get that thought out of your head." you stared into his eyes to get your point across.
"But don't you want someone your age?"
"No I don't." you shook your head. "I am perfectly happy with you and I don't need anyone else." you held his cheeks between your palms. "Plus I like it that you are older." you smirked making him chuckle lightly. Climbing onto his lap you pulled him closer. "I love it that you are more experienced." you pressed a soft kiss on his cheek. "I love it that you are taller." a kiss under his ear. "I love it that you are always so so sweet to everyone you meet." a kiss on his nose. Your right hand went into his hair as your lips kissed down to his neck. "And I love the way you make me feel when it's just the two of us." you whispered into his ear, your breath hitting his skin, making him let out a moan. He grabbed your waist in a strong grip. "I love how big your hands are." you nipped at his skin on his neck earning another noise of pleasure and his fingers digging into your skin. "But most importantly" you pulled away so you could look into his eyes to show your sincerity. "I love you. All of you. With everything I have." his eyes softened as he pulled you into a passionate kiss.
"I love you too."

Hey 😃 can I request about Vasco with s/o who taller than him? Thanks 🏃🏻‍♀️
Ngl, was kinda surprised when I received this. Me myself is not very tall sooo it might be a little confusing, I’ll still try but don’t judge too hard 😅
hcs
To him it doesn’t matter, nope
Though Jace kinda sees you as a threat
You might have been mistaken for the leader instead
Will try the hair pulling thingy again with you after seeing little Daniel succeed
Will challenge you to touching the door frame
Wanna teach you how to fight, but respects your hobbies
Jace thanks you cause Vasco's not crying for girls no more, and you actually drilled some common sense in him
If your Tabasco's girlfriend, unfortunately you are officially burn knuckles' queen
So don't too surprised if a group of tattooed guys follow you every where, come on they're only checking if you're safe
Uses BURN KNUCKLES SECRET MOVE [INVINCIBLE CHARIOT] for you
Be aware of the ceiling though, will kneel with their head down if you ever get hurt
Burn knuckles will not need a order from Vasco if anyone tries to hurt you, all of them will go berserk
Shopping havoc
Word count: 1213 one-shot
Tumblr media
It's been a month of dating the head of burn knuckles, and you're still convinced that he likes kangaroos more than you. No he really made plans to adopt a kangaroo when you agreed to date him.
The scene was basically you blushing after accepting his confession, but only to hear his dreams of having that large animal when he gets married, leaving you very flustered in public.
Though what embarrassed you more, ever since you were young, was the fact that you are taller than the young man before you. You could see he doesn't give it a single shit about that, but insecurities don't leave after a day.
For the last month, every time you made a comment about your height, he'd make a baffled face. "I think it's cool, what are you talking about your height is perfect." No he really doesn't understand why you have it hard on yourself.
Did you fall in love, obviously, yes. Though Vasco doesn't comprehend the reason behind you're insecurities, he assures that not only is it normal, it's beautiful, you're beautiful. Some height ain't gonna scare homeboy away!
So that's why today you wanted to take your relationship on to the next level, the 'normal' level.
I know, the 'normal' level is very correct. Come on does Tabasco really understand the concept of kissing?
Yes, he might have given his umbrella to you on a rainy day, he might have pinned you to the wall just to ask "You do want McDonald’s or KFC?"
Obviously you knew he doesn't have any experience, so fine, you waited. But after another two weeks it came to you that if you don't bring it up to him, he will never figure that out.
So what better to do than teach him on a date? You've planned out all the possibilities and the events that might occur, it took days to work up the nerve to ask him on a date, alone.
Ok, alone. Not with some big group of guys following you, you even begged Jace to make it clear. Alone. He said yes after seeing your desperation, using his detective skills straightforwardly.
"Good luck on that, you might have to even show him a video on how to kiss."
Fine don't ask what video you chose. Anything to open up his eyes to this current problem.
So you weren't sure why, along with your boyfriend who showed up in a nice loose tee and jeans, you felt seven more pairs of eyes following you.
Are you kidding me?
"Hey Vasco, how you doing today?" you asked faintly, despite your height, you're a softie at heart.
"Hey, I'm great, so we going to get some clothes? I could use some new pants."
Yes he does, have yall seen him running around in pajamas?
You tried hard to ignore those guys at the back, what happened to Jace's promise? They all gave out a suspicious aura, everyone was basically looking. And it's whatever if they walked far behind, they're literally stuck to their leader's ass, not even leaving one meter of space.
You could say the date proceeded well on Vasco's side, it was a regular date and you even picked out some nice pants for him. But on your side? Uh... not too great.
Every time you tried to make a move, there just has to be something that stopped you.
"So babe, umm I was wonder-"
"Mister, we are having a sale this month, would you like to pick out another pair to get 30% off?"
As if that wasn't enough, the boys would send you looks of encouragement at the back like it would soothe your embarrassment.
Sighing, you stepped into the final store you wanted to go in.
"I'm gonna pick out some clothes for you too ok? Wait here." he said with enthusiasm, already running off without hearing out your response. Obviously you couldn't trust his choices, but let the boy have fun.
So you minded your own business waiting for him to come back, but why did the receptionist look at you like that. Wait, she turned back to her friend while pointing your way. What's going on?
You could see them giggling after exchanging some words. They both spun your way, one of them making her way to you and the other one just laughed trying to woe her back.
"Hello, yes you over there. How tall are you?" she snickered.
It was almost as if she was the one over towering you when she stared at you curiously. "Uh... I-I'm not too sure." you replied softly, wishing she'd leave you alone.
"Hey no need to lie, damn your voice doesn't suit you at all. I thought you'd sound like a man! You must be at least 180 miss girl!" she exclaimed, though everyone who heard knew, that was spoken disrespectfully.
But you could only nod and fidget a little, not wanting to cause a scene. There was already a few people looking over to you, but shooting glares at the clerk. You were happy that they knew she was the one trying to disturb you.
"Your little boyfriend over there, isn't he bothered? If it was me I definitely would be disgusted. Are you sure he isn't just playing? Oh, do you play basketball?" her ranting agitated the customer, but still showed no signs of stopping.
Your blood ran cold as she kept speaking, what did she say? Isn't Vasco bothered with me?
What if the reason that he hasn't shown me affection was because he was disgusted?
On the verge of tears, you muttered out, "please stop."
"What?"
"Stop, I do not feel comfortable with you speaking to me like this." you expressed clearly.
She scoffed when she recovered from shock, "hey lady, I asked-"
"I'm not." Vasco stated, popping out by your side. You flinched in surprise, but immediately blushing after he gently wrapped his arm around you.
"I heard what you said, and I'm saying I'm not disgusted or bothered by her." He said with a hint of anger. "Please return and do your job, my girlfriend will not like to speak with a girl like you."
Honestly, no words can express how happy that made you, your man stood up for your insecurities while being respectful. How did I end up with such a good man like this?
The girl gasp with an offended look, but looked down after meeting Vasco's eyes. She stuttered out a weak 'sorry' then fast-walked back to the counter.
Ignoring the cheers of other customers, he walked you out of the store. You were still dazed, eyes focused on the man whose eyes where ahead. Maybe the date was good after all.
But before he kept walking, an unexpected sweet peck landed on your cheek. Your face now resembles a tomato.
"Huh?"
Wait, what was that
THAT WAS SO CUTE
You saw in the between those guys, Jace sent you a sneaky wink.
"Was that ok?" Vasco asked, he doesn't look shy at all. Does he even realize what that means?
"Wait Vasco, continue no more, the queen is heating up!"
"The queen is all red!"
"Vasco you killed someone!"
Guess who got assorted out the mall today.
=================================
Forgive me for putting this in two parts and releasing it so late, I was busy memorizing the periodic table 😀

+another repost, one of my favourite works ever. its unfortunate not many liked it... ;-; but im still gonna post it anyways. i did not make any changes to this fic.
summary: a journey where boxer!mark and you start to fall for each other.
5.8k words... it wasn’t supposed to be this long.. sorry guys ):
i changed the title because sunflower reminded me of johnny lmfao! also i know you guys don’t like long fics but istg i didn’t want it to be so long either ;;
warnings: mentions of blood & violence, f words 
+Day 1
The loud cheers were really starting to annoy you. Why did you let your friend drag you here in the first place?
You let out a grumbled sigh when your friend had pulled your hand, leading you closer to the ring. Truthfully, you hated anything that has got to do with blood or violence. You didn’t dare tell your friend that since she told you that she has always wanted to go to an underground match.
People were pushing you around as you struggled to keep your balance. You hold onto your friend’s wrist, to avoid from falling.
Your friend must have noticed your discomfort and leaned towards you, “you okay?”
Shaking your head, you reply, “yeah... this- this is just not my type,”
She pouts, “do you want to leave?”
“No, no, you’ve been waiting for this, let’s just watch the match,” you reply, looking back to the ring. Your friend nodded, looking back front.
The match started within a few minutes, both participants standing on each side started getting closer, waiting for one of them to throw a punch.
“That’s Jung Jaehyun,” your friend says, pointing to the one who had chocolate abs. He had some parts of his black hair dyed a dark green, which really suits him.  
Jaehyun.
He was handsome. Pretty face— really pretty face. However, his neck was filled with tattoos, which gets rid of his cute demeanour. You already knew he was the type to get lots of girls just by doing nothing.
“And that’s Mark Lee,”
Your eyes gazed on the boy with black hair.
Oh. 
He’s cute. He’s really cute. Super cute features. Plump lips, cute cheeks— you just want to pinch. You were surprised why he would be in a ring with such adorable features. You wanted to coo at his ears, why are his ears so cute?
If you were to pick one, you would pick the latter. He’s just your type.
Great, you’re doing it again. Thinking which boys you would choose.
Shaking your thoughts away, you focus on the match.
Jaehyun suddenly throws a punch, to which Mark managed to dodge. Mark suddenly throws a punch, straight to the other boy’s cheekbones.
You let out a gasp, flinching at the sight. Though, the crowd continues to cheer.
In a blink of an eye, Jaehyun has Mark under him, his arm tightening around Mark’s neck.
“Isn’t that dangerous?!” you screech, turning to your friend who was happily watching the match.
“That’s what makes it fun,” your friend winks.
Your mouth was left wide open as you look back at Mark who was struggling to breathe. You notice Mark tapping on Jaehyun’s arm as the latter lets go of his crazy tight grip on the boy.
“This is crazy,” you whisper out.
Despite being absolutely terrified of the scene that had just happened, you wanted to see more.
After a few matches, it was declared Jaehyun had won this time’s match. You actually expected it- seeing how he was slightly more builded than Mark. At the same time, you were disappointed that Mark had lost the match.
The people around you started getting closer, excited by the first match. It was making it hard for you to breathe.
You tap your friend’s shoulder, “I am going to step out for a while,”
“Do you want me to follow?” she asks.
You shake your head, “no, enjoy the rest of the match,”
“Okay, text me if you need anything,” she tells you as you let out a hum and step away from the crowd. You climb the flight of stairs, pushing the tinted glass door open. You take a deep breathe, finally able to breathe fresh air.
You rest your back against the brick walls, fishing out your phone to reply to some texts and scroll through Instagram.
“Hey,”
“Oh, jeez!” you jumped, your hand pressed against your chest, turning to see Mark.
Mark laughs, staring at you in amusement, “weren’t you from inside? I saw you,”
You gulp and nodded, “yeah, yeah I was, I saw you too,”
You scan his features. He had multiple bruises and cuts on his cheekbones and lips. You notice a deep cut on his eyebrow, and a bruise on his neck. You look back up to his eyes.
“Are you okay?” you ask him, pointing to the bruises painting his face.
He chuckles at your question, wiping the blood staining his lips. “Your first time here?”
You nod, your head moving to scan the cuts on his face, “are you going to clean that up?”
“I’m okay,” he reassures you, a small smile playing on his lips, “this is nothing,”
You wince. That was nothing? You would be crying in pain if you had that many cuts and bruises on you.
“Okay,” you whisper.
“I’m Mark,” he says again, “what’s your name, pretty?”
Your face turned a crimson red, “y/n,”
“y/n,” he repeats, the name rolling out of his tongue smoothly, “beautiful name for a beautiful girl,”
You couldn’t help but laugh at his words, “how many times have you used that phrase, Mark?”
Mark was flustered for a moment, but quickly regain his coolness, “well, as of 3 seconds ago… once?”
He laughs when you grimace at his response, shaking your head in astonishment.
“So, what were you doing in an underground boxing, y/n?” he asks you, “you don’t seem like the type to be around this area,”
“My friend has been dying to come to an underground match and she dragged me with her,” you explain.
He hums, “ah, your friend? She really caught Jaehyun’s eye earlier,”
You smirk, knowing your friend definitely has been crushing on Jaehyun too.
“We should set them up!” you say excitedly.
+Day 15
2 weeks later, you were back at the same place. This time, you weren’t forced, you had begged your friend to bring you again. You would go alone but being alone in a place filled with rowdy men scares you. You knew your friend would agree since she wanted to see Jaehyun too.
“You usually don’t like this type of things, why are you suddenly so excited?” your friend asked, grabbing her bag, while you were tugging on her arm. 
You bit your lip nervously, knowing the exact reason why, but you refuse to tell her. 
***
“You’re back again,” says Mark, looking down at you with a smile plastered on his face.
“Yeah, I just need some break from the chaos at school,” you explain. You were actually doing well in school. Unlike other students, you let out your stress from doing work and projects.
Mark hums as he looks around, “wanna go somewhere quieter?”
“But—” you turn away to find your friend, but she was nowhere to be found.
“She’s talking to Jaehyun,” Mark tells you.
You turn back around, holding your breathe when you see Mark leaning awfully close to your face. When he saw your flustered state, he started smirking, letting out a low chuckle.
“Come,” he says, tugging on your elbow, pulling you out of the crowd. Climbing the familiar stairs, the both of you walked towards an empty playground. The both of you take a seat on the swings.
“It’s kinda scary to be in a playground at night,” you state, looking around the extremely quiet area.
You hear Mark laugh at your statement; you look at him confusingly. “You know what you remind me of?”
You raise your eyebrows.
“A sunflower,” he tells you, making you blush. “Anything with the colour yellow,”
“And why is that Mark?”
He rests his head on the rope of the swings as he stares at you, “You seem like someone who is absolutely cheerful, everyone needs someone like you in their life,”
You smile at his sweet words.
Your eyes gaze on his hands that was wrapped in bandages, blood seeping through them.
“Are your hands okay?” you ask, nodding your chin towards his hands resting on his lap.
He looks down at his hands then back at you, smirking, “why? Did I make you worry?”
You look at him like he was crazy, “of course you did! The guy went pretty hard on you,”
Mark felt embarrassed at that. You came to watch his match twice and he still couldn’t win in front of you.
He looks away from your gaze, “it was nothing,” he murmurs.
You were quiet for a while. You felt guilty for bringing it up, knowing he was already beating himself up for it.
“You did great,” you blurted out, “I came to support you actually,”
“Really?” he chuckles, his gaze still on his shoes.
“Yup, you did so well, I think I should take you out for lunch,” you blurt out without realising. Your eyes widen at what you had just said.
Oh god, why did you say that? Did you have no shame? What if Mark didn’t even feel the same way?
Mark swiftly turns to look at your confused face. Fuck, he just wanted to hug you so bad.
“Are you asking me out on a date?” he asks, an amused grin plastered on his lips.
Oh god. 
You quickly face away from the boy who was staring at you with amusement. “N-no,”
He lets out a defeated sigh, “damn, really? I was hoping it would be a date,”
Oh fuck, he was smooth. 
“Shouldn’t you be asking me out on a date?” you huff.
“Do you want me to ask you out on a date?”
“No! I mean—”
“Y/N, will you go on a date with me?”
+Day 17
The date was originally scheduled in 5 days but Mark was too excited and had asked you to meet slightly earlier, to which you agreed.
This time, Mark wasn’t in a tank top and shorts, he didn’t have cuts on his face or bloody hands wrapped in bandages. He was dressed in a button up and black skinny jeans.
He’s so adorable. 
“What,”
“What?” you look at him weirdly.
“You keep staring at me,” he points out, “do I have something on my face? Or am I too handsome?”
You grimace at his words and threw a fry at him, giggles leaving your lips.
Mark wanted to take you out on a proper expensive date, but he was also a broke college student— just like you. He felt bad about not being able to take you out on a proper date, but you had reassured him that you’d rather eat McDonalds kids meal than eat a $50 meal that is the size of a pea.
“You know,” you start, leaning back on the chair, “If I saw you for the first time, I wouldn’t believe it if you told me you were a boxer,”
“Why?”
You shrug, “you look like a baby to me,” you tell him, “just wanna pinch your cheeks,”
He scoffs, puffing out his chest, “I may look like a baby, but I fight like a man,”
+Day 23
Mark: hey are you coming later
You: where?
Mark: my match you loser
You: I don’t think so :(
You: i have a bunch of work to do :((
Mark: :(
Mark: oky then :/ make sure you rest enough
You:  I will :) don’t worry haha
+Day 25
“I didn’t know Mark had many girl friends,” your friend says.
You raise your eyebrows at that. The both of you weren’t official yet, only at the talking stage. He has never mentioned his friends or his family, but the information had your suspicions growing.
You pretend to not be affected by the words, “how’d you know?”
“You know the day you couldn’t come for his match?” you hum, “I think he invited some girls because they were all hugging and talking,”
You would be lying if you weren’t heartbroken by your friend’s words. However, you have no rights stopping him from seeing his friends. The both of you weren’t a couple.
“Aren’t you guys a couple?”
“No,” you answer with a sharp tone, “it’s his life he can do whatever he wants.”
“You’re not fazed by it?”
“Why would I be?” you murmur, “he’s not mine to begin with.”
+Day 35
Mark: hey :)
Mark: it’s been a while
Mark: I miss you
You: I knw haha
Mark: are you coming for my match tomorrow night?
Mark: no no you have to come tomorrow!!
Mark: ok?
You: hahahah
You: I will oky
You: im finished with my work & all so why not haha
You: but I need you to come get me hehe
You: my friend wont be following so its just me :3
Mark: that’s great!!!
Mark: I’ll send u home too ok
You: oky Markie :3
+Day 36
You had your hands resting on Mark’s face, cleaning up his bloody face. Mark had lost this time round; his opponent was three times your size and had beat Mark down like a pipe.
“I don’t even know why I support you doing this,” you mumble, wiping the blood running down his face, “you make me worry too much,”
“I’m okay.”
You glare up at him. “If you think this is okay then I don’t what’s your definition of the opposite.”
He frowns at you but didn’t say a word.
It took you a good 30 minutes to clean up all of his wounds. You lean away from him, “make sure you rest for a week,”
He hums, staring at you, “thank you,”
You felt bad for being so harsh on him. You reach for his hands, holding it in yours, your thumb stroking the back of his hand.
“Can you take me home now? I’m tired,” you sigh.
Throughout the ride home, you had one of Mark’s hand resting on your lap. You didn’t let go for a second, loving the warm feeling of his hand clasped in yours. Before you knew it, his car stopped infront of your apartment building.
You pout, turning to face him., “I don’t wanna leave yet,”
“Me neither,” he chuckles, “don’t go,”
You lips break into a grin, “you loser,”
He hums.
You unlock the door, ready to open the car door but Marks tug on your hands. You face him. He lifts his free hands, his pointer finger tapping on his cheek.
You snicker at his actions, your pointer and middle finger pushing his cheek away. You stick your tongue out when he pouts at you. You open the car door and left the car, shutting it, turning to face the boy who was still pouting.
“Thanks for today,” you say, “make sure you rest for a week before you start working again,” you reminded him.
Upset that you didn’t kiss him, Mark clicked his tongue and gestured for you to go in.
+Day 40
Your eyebrows furrow when you saw the pictures Mark was tagged in Jaehyun’s photo. You knew this photo was recent from the evident bruises on Mark’s face.
You had already warned him to completely heal for a week before going back to work but why was he so stubborn?
The girls who was surrounding the guy you like didn’t go unnoticed by you. You noticed how he had his arms snake around both girl’s waist.
Shutting your eyes close, you let out a frustrated sigh.
“Is this from today?” you ask your friend, showing her your phone.
Your friend takes a look and nods without hesitation.
A loud and angry groan left your lips. Getting up from the couch, you stomped to your bedroom, shutting the door as you climbed in bed.
God, why was liking a boy so hard?
Tears started rolling down your cheeks. You were so frustrated with Mark. You liked him so much that you hated seeing him being hurt— even if it was something he loves doing.
It wasn’t the first time he was seen surrounded by girls. Although the both of you weren’t in an official relationship, you didn’t enjoy seeing him touching girls. Maybe you were being dramatic with the girls, but did you really want to date someone like him? Someone who could potentially be taken away in a flash?
You sit up, rubbing your eyes with a deep sigh. Everyone deserves a chance, even if he had hurt you.
You turn on your phone to send Mark a text.
You: you went to work today?
It took him less than a minute to respond.
Mark: how’d you know?
You: jaehyun’s Instagram
You: I thought I told you to rest?
Mark: sorry :( it was just a last minute match
You: hm
Mark: but on the bright side, I won this time!
Right. Of course he would win the match when you’re not there to support him.
You: was it fun?
Mark: yeah! Our friends came to support us
You: ohh who?
Mark: just some ex-school friends, you don’t know them haha
You: okay hha
Mark: you’re not angr right? Haha
Mark: angry*
You: no why would I be
You: you’re not my boyfriend so I have no right to be
You: mad
+Day 58
“Hey,” Mark sends you a bitter smile, “you okay? Been a whole year since we last saw each other,”
“It’s been 2 weeks, Mark,” you reply dryly.
Mark pouts and takes a seat next to you, “two weeks too long~”
He leans his head on your shoulder as his gaze on your phone. You turn to him slightly, offering your bubble tea to the male who happily accepts. He rests his hand on the plastic cup and your hand holding the cup, pulling it towards his lips.
You giggle, “you’re so cute, Mark.”
He squints his eyes cutely at you as he continues sipping on your drink. You didn’t complain, you love seeing him all happy.
You clear your throat, earning his attention, “I want to ask you something,”
He tilts his chin upwards, “what’s up?”
You try to think of a way to phrase your words together without sounding possessive.
Mark notices your furrowed eyebrows, he cracks a grin and nudges you with his shoulder, “don’t be so serious, what’s up?”
“Are you going to introduce me to your friends?” you blurted out.
Mark fell silent at your question. He wasn’t annoyed or anything— not at all, he couldn’t ever be mad at you. But it was just so sudden, where was this all coming from?
“I mean- you don’t have to, if you don’t want to,” you explain, “it’s not like I want to,” you laugh awkwardly, looking away from the male.
“N-no,” he stutters out, “it was just so sudden, where is this coming from?”
“I’m sorry,”
“Do you want to meet my friends?” he asks.
“I’m not forcing you,” you state, “it’s just a question- it’s not important,” you mumble the last part.
He let out a chuckle, “I want you to meet my friends,” he says, “but, they just…”
You purse your lips, already expecting the answer. Of course he won’t introduce you to his female friends. It would be a lie if you said you weren’t disappointed, but you couldn’t do anything. you can’t force him into doing something he doesn’t want to.
“I’m sorry,” he sounded sincere, too sincere. It’s weird.
You feign a smile, “It’s okay, but I have to go now,”
He frowns, watching you stand up to grab your bag, “already?”
You nod, “I’ll see you when I see you, I guess,”
Before he could even hug you goodbye, you had already left the bubble tea shop.
+Day 62
You had this habit of overworking yourself whenever you were down. You had drowned yourself in projects and work. The incident that happened a few days ago has left your mind, especially when he hasn’t sent you a single text.
“Hey,” your friend called, you hum in response, although your gaze was still glued on your laptop. “Have you been talking to Mark lately?”
Your fingers freeze at his name. Suddenly you were furious just by hearing his name.
“Why?” you reply crudely.
“He’s been asking me about you. Did something happen?” your friend asks, worried about you.
He’s been asking about you? So he has been thinking about you this whole time? Your heart fluttered a little at the thought. You genuinely liked Mark and it sucked that the both of you were already having arguments even before being a couple.
You bit your lip, turning around to look at your friend, “what did he say?”
Your friend passes you her phone, showing the text message between the two.
Mark: hey, im sorry if im disturbing you but
Mark: is y/n okay?
Mark: we haven’t been texting lately and I thought she needed space so i gave her that
Mark: I just want to know if she’s okay? If shes eating healthily?
Your lips tugged upwards at the text. God, he was so cute. You scroll down a little more to read more texts.
Mark: could you update me everyday on how she’s doing?
Mark: I miss her :/
“He really likes you, you know,” your friend says abruptly.
You pass her phone back, looking up at her.
“I know I’m not officially his and I have no right on stopping him who he should hang out with,” you explain, “but it upsets me seeing how he’s being surrounded by girls every single night,”
Your friend places her hand on your shoulder, her thumb caressing your shoulder comfortingly, “you should talk to him about it.”
She was right. Communication is key. You can’t keep it a secret forever. If it upsets you, then you should voice out.
You were going to talk to him about it.
+Day 67
You were at the underground boxing area again. Mark had texted you to come and support him. You were going to talk to him about it today. After his match. This was the only way that was going to make you feel better.
This time, you were standing near the wall, furthest from the boxing ring. Mark had warned you to stay here because of all the rowdy men crowding the area.
“With your petite size, you are just going to be stepped on,” he had said. 
You locked eyes with Mark who was standing in the ring. You automatically grin at him. Mark struggled to keep a straight face after seeing your adorable smile.
‘Good luck!’ you mouth, lifting your hands to show a thumbs up, then sending a heart to the male.
Mark’s heart flutter just by looking at you. He looks away to keep a straight face. Soon, the match started.
“Hi,”
You swiftly turned to see a handsome male standing next to you. You send him a polite smile before turning back to look at Mark.
“What are you doing here?” he asks.
“I’m just here to support a friend,” you say plainly, your eyes gazing on Mark intently.
“I see,” the man says, “I’m Yuta,”
Does he ever stop talking? You hum, hoping it would stop him from talking to you.
“What’s your name?”
You wanted to roll your eyes at his question. You face the man, “I’m y/n,”
“Beautiful name for a beautiful girl,” he flirts, winking at you. You grimace at his words. “You’re really pretty,”
You didn’t respond, irked by his presence.
“Do you hate talking or something?” he asks you. He rolls his eyes when you didn’t reply. “Do you have a boyfriend?”
“No, I don’t, Yuta,” you sigh.
“Then? Do you hate me or something? Do you hate someone you’ve never met?” he asks you, leaning closer to you.
Unbeknownst to you, Mark saw you talking to the male and was distracted by it, which resulted in him getting punched in the jaw by his opponent.
Loud gasps and whistles filled the room.
You quickly turn to see Mark laying on the ground, getting stepped on by his opponent. Your hands went up to your mouth, watching in horror. Once his opponent was pulled away, you ran to find Mark, but was stopped by Yuta grasping your arm.
“Let go of me!” you shrieked, pushing his arm away, running to find Mark.
You see Mark in the room, holding his jaw painfully while Jaehyun helped him bandage his hand.
“Mark!” you call, running up to him. You instantly hold onto his elbow, scanning his face that was littered with bruises. He had a black eye too.
Mark meets your worried gaze. His eyes held something different— anger and annoyance.
“Are you okay? Are you badly hurt anywhere?” you ask.
The male suddenly pushes your grip off him, looking away from you. Your eyes widen at his actions.
Did you do something wrong?
You look at Jaehyun, hoping he would signal you something— anything. But he only looked away from you guiltily. You frown at the both of them.
“Mark?” he ignores your voice.
You felt your heart clench painfully. You didn’t know what you did wrong for him to treat you this way. A disappointed sigh left your lips as you turn around, leaving the underground boxing match.
You rest your back against the brick walls, you felt tears trail down your cheeks. You came here with Mark and was expecting him to drive you home, so you didn’t bring any money with you.
“Fuck,” you whisper, your fingers wiping the stray tears.
You fish out your phone, unlocking it but only to see a black screen. You harshly pressed on the button multiple times but it wouldn’t turn on. Great, your phone must’ve died. You look around, trying to find someone who could help you out.
“Are you going to get in?” a deep voice says.
You look up to see Mark standing next to his car.
+++++
A shaky sigh left your lips, brushing away the tears that wouldn’t stop leaving your eyes. You look out the window, hoping it would distract you. Another tear rolled down your cheeks.
“Stop crying,” Mark murmurs.
You wanted to scoff at that. How ironic, especially when he was the one who made you cry.
“I’m fucking trying,” you say through gritted teeth.
The car comes to a halt as you see your apartment building outside. However, you didn’t leave his car.
“Did I do something?” you ask. You have been dying to ask the question ever since.
He rolls his eyes, “I don’t know y/n, did you?” he responds sarcastically.
“Can you stop that?!” you shout, turning your body to face him, “Just tell me what I did so I can fucking apologize!”
He scoffs at your words, “who was that man? Openly flirting while I was in a match?”
Your brows knit in confusion. Is he being serious?
“Firstly, I don’t know who the hell that man was, and I was definitely not flirting with him,” you explain, “and secondly, you’re not my boyfriend. So, even if I wanted to flirt, I am allowed to.”
This relationship was starting to get confusing.
“We are in the talking stage!” he shouts, “technically you are mine.”
You laugh at that, “really? I can’t flirt with anyone but you’re out here hugging and touching random girls!”
He becomes quiet, looking away from your intense gaze.
You push your hair back, frustrated. “what now, Mark?”
He looks down at his lap, playing with his fingers. He felt like crying— he never cries. “I don’t think this is working out,” he whispers, voice cracking. “I think we should stop seeing each other,”
You feel your lips tremble, tears threatening to fall again. You close your eyes, the tears falling down your cheeks. Your hands clenched into fists, hoping it would stop you from letting out sobs.
“Okay,” you mutter, “I’m going to go,”
When you reached your apartment, your hand immediately rests on the wall, steadying your balance. You couldn’t even breathe properly as you let out loud sobs. Your heart was beating rapidly from your unsteady breathing.
You felt like you were going to die. You didn’t expect this to hurt so much.
You are going to get through this. You will get through this. 
+Day 83
It has been a few weeks since you had last seen Mark. You had spent most of your time in your room crying your eyes out. If it wasn’t that, you would be sobbing on the couch while your friend would try her best to comfort you.
You didn’t have the energy or appetite to eat. Your friend always made you drink lots of water and would sometimes make a sandwich for you.
Your friend had secretly sent text updates to Mark, but he would just ignore them. He was hurting as much as you were. Just by hearing your name, his heart would clench painfully. Mark had spent most of his time at the ring, taking out his frustration by throwing punches and kicks.
You were washing the dishes since your friend had left to support Jaehyun in the underground match. She had invited you to come with her, but you’d rather stay home, knowing Mark would probably be there.
Your phone started ringing. You let out an annoyed sigh, quickly putting the plate on the rack, then walking over to grab your phone. You answer the call.
“What?” you sigh, “I’m busy cleaning, you know?”
“y/n,” your friend breathes heavily. This was weird. “Can you come here?”
Your eyebrows knit in confusion, “what? Why? What happened?”
“Mark passed out,” she tells you.
Your eyes widen, “w-what?”
“He’s going to be sent to the hospital, you need to come, now,”
+++++
“What room is he in? Is he okay?” you ask, looking at your friend and Jaehyun with wary eyes.
“He’s okay,” Jaehyun says, “he’s in the room,” he nods towards the door.
You had tears threatening to leave your eyes. You couldn’t help but let the tears fall. You felt your body grow weak, you squat down, covering your face with your arms as you let out loud sobs.
It was all your fault. If you hadn’t taken care of him more often, none of this would’ve happened.
Your friend frowns at your state. She bends down and pat your back comfortingly. “Go in,” she persuades, “he has been dying to see you,”
You lift your head to look at her, a small pout on your lips. Your friend wipes your tears with her thumb, smiling at you.
Letting out a soft sigh, you stand up, smoothing your hair and your pants. Walking towards the door, you knock softly before sliding the door open. Mark tilts his head, seeing you walk in quietly with your lips pursed.
He didn’t know what to do. Should he send you a smile? Should he act cold?
When you got closer to him, you scan the state he was in. He had his forehead bandage and his arm in a cast. His lips were busted, a plaster on the bridge of his nose.
“Hey,” you say, voice still raspy from the crying earlier, “what happened?”
He clears his throat and looks away from you. He feels bad making you worried. But at the same time, he didn’t expect you to be here.
“Just a few bruises here and there,” he says.
“Mark.”
“It’s nothing, really!” he exclaims.
You glare at him, “fuck you,” you spit. “I came down here because everyone was so worried about you. I was so worried about you. And now that I’m here, you’re going to tell me it’s nothing?”
Mark was unbelievable. God, why do you like him so much?
His eyes soften at your words. He bit his lip nervously, intimidated by you, he slowly looks up at you, “I just don’t want to worry you,”
You scoff, “your job already worries me, Mark.”
He pouts without even realising. He looks down at his lap guiltily, playing with his fingers.
You felt bad for shouting at him. Letting out a huff, you amble closer.
“You’re okay now, right?” you ask him.
“Yeah,” he mumbles, his gaze glued on his lap.
A pregnant silence fills you two, unsure of what to say to each other. You didn’t want to leave, and Mark doesn’t want you to leave. You bit your lips awkwardly as you look everywhere but Mark.
“I think I’ll leave now,” you say, “I have work to do and I don’t want to… disturb you,”
You stare at him, waiting for him to say something. Anything. disappointment fills you when Mark looks away from your gaze. You turn around, ready to leave the room when Mark calls your name.
“Did you mean it?” he asks, “that day,”
You stop in your tracks, your back facing him. Your grip tightens on your sweatpants.
“Mean what?” you repeat, “you suggested it, Mark,”
“I know,” he breathes, “I regret it,”
You missed Mark. You missed his dumb jokes and his annoying laughter which you loved so much. You turn around to look at him.
“I don’t like seeing you this way, Mark,” you confess, “your job scares me, it worries me,”
“What can I do to make you not worry, y/n?” he asks, eyes widening, “should I stop doing it?”
“That’s not what I meant,” you reply harshly, “if you would actually let me stay by your side, it might ease my worries,”
You step closer to the boy, your hand resting on his cheek. He subconsciously lean against your soft hand.
“I’m sorry for what I said the other day,” he professes, “I..I didn’t mean what I said,”
You take a seat on the chair that was next to his bed, holding onto his hands tightly. “Then, why would you say that Mark?”
“I just—“ he sighs, “I just didn’t want to lose you to someone else, y/n,” he explains, looking up at you, “we weren’t even dating yet! I just knew that I genuinely like you.”
Your heart clench at his words. “I didn’t like seeing you with other girls either,”
“I know,” he huffs, his free hand going up to ruffle his mop of black hair, “I was just stupid,”
Your thumb strokes his hand comfortingly, “It’s okay. It’s all over now,”
“I don’t want to deal with this anymore,” he tells you, “all this, jealousy and possessiveness.”
Is he going to…?
“I have been dying to ask you this question for the longest time,” he continues, “would you like to be my girlfriend?”

Conversations
Bonus Chapter: Colorado
Tumblr media
Description: Takes place a year and a half after the first bonus chapter Back to the Beginning. The reader and Chris are married with life changes ahead. Original description for the series Conversations: You accompany your friends on a day trip to Animal Kingdom Theme Park where you meet Scott Evans by chance. This one afternoon leads to a year long friendship with both Chris and Scott over text messages and phone calls.
Pairing: Chris Evans x Reader, Scott Evans
Warning: Slightly NSFW (18+ only!), cursing, talk of pregnancy, fluff, Grumpy and Sassy shenanigans. 
A/N: Look who finally wrote a bonus chapter for Conversations! This girl, right here! Just a little timestamp in the reader and Chris’ life. And of course we needed some Scott time. You do not have to read the series to read this one shot, but it doesn’t hurt. Reblogs, comments, asks, what have you, I enjoy. 
Italics are internal thoughts
**
“Honestly, love, it’s fine,” you spoke softly into the phone, trying your best to keep your voice even. The last thing you want is for him to feel worse than he already does.
“I don’t know…” Chris trailed off. “Usually, when women say the word fine, they really don’t mean, fine.”
“Such a guy,” you chuckle. “I promise, Scott and I are going to have a terrific time. He’s taking care of me and promised not to get us into any trouble.” You raise an eyebrow at your travel companion seated next to you in the hired car.
Chris laughed and then followed it up with a groan. “That does not make me feel better. Put me on speaker.”
You rolled your eyes but did as he asked or rather demanded. “Okay, you’re on speaker.”
“Scott, you better take care of my wife. She’s precious cargo. And she’s carrying precious cargo. So, it’s extra precious cargo.”
You laughed; hand automatically going to your stomach. You were four months along and just starting to show. Family and close friends knew the two of you were expecting your first child, but the tabloids had not caught wind. The two of you had been going back and forth on whether to let People Magazine do an exclusive cover shoot when baby Evans is born. The money earned from People would be donated to charity which was the only reason you were even considering it. Plus, the whole you two breaking the news rather than the public finding out when you weren’t ready. Chris wanted to be the one to introduce his child to the world rather than having paparazzi sneaking into your backyard to get a picture. You couldn’t argue with him there.
“Would you relax! You’re going to give yourself a coronary and then I’d have to take care of both precious cargos and you don’t want that.” Scott shouted.
I really hope the driver doesn’t recognize Scott.
You smacked his arm, taking the call off speaker and bringing it back to your ear. “Chris, we are both going to be just fine. The plane ride was as relaxing as any plane ride can be and we are almost to the hotel. Scott and I are going to pamper ourselves and eat lots of great food. Work is important and I completely understand.”
Chris got called back to Los Angeles for reshoots that he couldn’t get out of. He planned a couple of mini babymoons and this was going to be the first one. Because of your advanced age – insert eyeroll – your doctor had mentioned it may not be safe to travel a lot once you were six months along. Chris took this seriously and booked a trip to Colorado at a gorgeous snowy mountain resort. There wouldn’t be any skiing, just loads of alone time and cuddling by the fireplace. When Chris had to cancel, Scott stepped in and volunteered the cuddles.
“This is one of the many reasons I love you. I’m just disappointed our romantic getaway is now being shared with Scott. My brother,” he said, voice in mock disgust.
“It’s fine. Scott and I haven’t hung out just the two of us in forever.” Scott reached for your hand and gave it a squeeze. “I’ll see you next week.”
“Alright, sweetheart. Have a great time and rest please.”
“You know I will. I love you, babe. Say hi to Pedro for me,” you said, smile evident in your voice.
“I will. Love you too.”
**
“Mr. and Mrs. Evans?” The check in clerk, Barbara according to her nametag asked.
“That’s right,” Scott chimed in, wrapping an arm around your waist. “Newlyweds.”
You forced a smile and bit the inside of your cheek so that you wouldn’t laugh.
“Congratulations!” she replied with a sweet smile on her face.
She tapped her chin with her index finger before going back to her keyboard. “Let’s see what I can do here,” Barbara replied, typing away on the computer in front of her. “We have you in a one-bedroom suite with a mountain view, but,” she paused for dramatic effect. “I’m moving the two of you to one of our honeymoon suites.”
Scott gasped and slapped his hand on the countertop. “That’s mighty nice of you,” he spoke in a fake southern accent.
Where did that come from?
“Me and the misses really appreciate it. Don’t we honey?” he asked, turning his attention back to you.
“My pleasure,” Barbara said before you could reply, laying two room keycards on the counter next to Scott’s hand.
You smiled brightly but kept your mouth closed, so afraid of letting a chuckle out or saying the wrong thing. Scott steered you away from the counter, placing a hand on your bottom.
Once you turned the corner to the bank of elevators, you yanked Scott’s hand off your behind.
“Newlyweds. Really?”
“It got us an upgrade, didn’t it dear?”
**
The first night you were fine. Scott kept you occupied with stories of the single life and the wonders of online dating. You weren’t sure how he did it. Or rather, how he didn’t. After he told you about the guy who wore Barney the dinosaur underwear in a child’s size husky, you laughed until you cried.
“But did you still sleep with him?” you asked wiping the tears from your cheeks.
“Sassy! Of course not. Barneeeeyyyy,” he drawled out.
Shrugging your shoulders, you got up to grab yourself a tissue from the bathroom. Coming back in the room, Scott was on his phone, fingers swiping feverously. You plopped down on the couch, tucking one leg under yourself.
“Here,” Scott said, handing you his phone. On screen was what you would refer to as tall, dark, and handsome.
“He’s hot,” you said, passing the phone back to him.
“Barney.”
“No,” you gasped.
Scott sighed before he started to laugh which got you going once again.
**
The second day you weren’t so fine. The two of you ordered breakfast in the suite. Pancakes dripping with syrup, crispy thick cut bacon, sausage links, a bowl of mixed fruit, and decaf coffee because Scott was in solidarity with you on your caffeine hiatus.
“Let’s go for a walk. There are tons of trails that the resort clears of snow. I need to work off this breakfast,” Scott said patting his stomach.
“You and me both,” you said, getting up to put on actual clothes instead of the pajamas you were still wearing.
“You are so lucky. Get to eat whatever you want and can just blame it on the baby.”
Stopping in your tracks, you turned around to face him, lower lip slightly wobbling. Since the minute you found out you were pregnant, you found it really hard to control your emotions. You knew Scott didn’t mean anything by the commit, but your brain couldn’t help itself.
“I have to work really hard to be healthy. It’s bad enough the doctor said I’m old.” A sob escapes your lips. The tears already starting to roll down your cheeks. “I can’t have any caffeine, can’t eat a lot of my favorite foods, have to cut back on my salt. My salt! You know fries are my jam. Doesn’t help that my husband is built like a fucking Greek God. I’m not a model or an actress. I already feel like Dodger’s poo compared to him.”
Scott was out of his seat before you could utter another word. Strong arm pulling you to his chest while one hand cradled your head.
“Stop that. You are fucking beautiful and frankly my bonehead brother is lucky you agreed to marry him. Do you even know how many times I have had to leave the room in the last two months when he starts talking about you growing his child inside you and that it turns him on?” Scott pulls away slightly an emulates puking.
“Stop,” you said, burying your head in his neck.
“Why is my neck wet, Sassy.”
“It’s snot,” you said with a chuckle, wrapping your arm around him and holding on tight.
“You two are meant for each other.”
After a minute he pulled away and grasped both of your hands. “I’m with you in any way you need. If you need a healthy eating buddy, I am your man. If you want to say ‘to hell with it’, I’ll pick up McDonalds for the two of us every day if you like.”
You wiped at your eyes and leaned in to kiss his cheek. “I love you Grumpy.”
“Love you too,” he replied and then clapped his hands together. “So, are we napping or are we walking?”
“Walking,” you stated, making your way into the bedroom to finally get changed.
That evening, the two of you got dressed up and went to your dinner reservation at the hotel where you were addressed as Mr. and Mrs. Evans. Scott stuck to sparkling water even though you encouraged him to get an alcoholic beverage.
“I don’t need to drink to be the life of the party. You know that.”
He wasn’t wrong. He’d kept you entertained even without the raspberry liquor he force fed you years ago.
“I think we need a dance party when we get back to the room. For old time sakes. Before I am too big to shake it.”
“Done and done.”
The night ended in a bubble bath with both you and Scott in your swimsuits in an oversized soaking tub. Dozens of pictures were taken with many going to your husband. Rather than a text in return, he called.
“What is this? My brother movin’ in on my wife?”
“Babe! You know that it was me and Scott from the start,” you teased.
Chris chuckled. “You go away for a couple of days and it’s like that.”
“You know you are my one and only. Scott’s just making me smile.”
“I know baby. I miss you.”
“I miss you too,” you said.
**
The next day you were weepy. As much as you tried to put on a happy face, you were missing Chris. Pregnancy hormones or not, Chris had been working a lot and you had barely seen each other. This romantic babymoon wasn’t what you had in mind. Yes, spending it with your best friend was great, but it wasn’t the same.
The fire place was roaring while Magic Mike was queued up on the flat screen. You and Scott were dressed in jeans and cable knit sweaters with fuzzy socks on your feet. The snow was coming down heavy which was fine with you since neither of you had any place to be.
Pop in hand, though you wouldn’t let Scott hear you call soda that, diet for you, regular for him, the only thing you were needing was Dodger’s wet nose on your stomach and Chris.
“You know, Chris can do that,” you said pointing at the screen where one of the dancers picked up an audience member like she weighed a pound.
“No. Stop. Do not ruin this movie for me. I do not need to picture what you and my brother do.”
“Scott, you do know where babies come from, right?”
“Gross.”
You chuckled, standing up to excuse yourself to the bathroom. Why you brought up Chris when you already cried twice this morning was beyond you. After using the bathroom, you cleaned up your face and stepped back into the living room of your suite.
Scott draped himself over the couch, phone in hand, eyes shifting between the screen of his phone and the TV.
“I think I’m going to take another bath. Need to relax a little bit.”
Scott looked up. “Not too hot.”
“Yes, dad,” you said, offering him a mock salute.
You kept the bath water warm, but added extra oils and bubbles to make it feel more luxurious. The lights were off but a few candles were lit and your phone played 90s R&B. You snapped a pic of your soapy legs and sent it to Chris. Within a few minutes you had a reply.
Chris: My brother better not be in there
Y/N: I’m all alone
Chris: We can’t have that
You heard the door open and you scolded yourself for not locking the door. This text conversation seemed to be heading into rated R territory. You did not need Scott to witness that.
“Scott,” you drawled out. “I’m not wearing my suit tonight. Get out of here.”
When you heard the distinct sound of a belt buckle, you turned around. Rather than Scott dropping his pants, it was Chris.
You gasped, mouth hanging open.
“Room for one more sweetheart?”
You nodded your head unable to form words but those tears had no trouble forming.
Chris continued to undress while you tried your best to compose yourself. He joined you a moment later slipping in behind you.
“How? I thought you were working.”
“I put in some long hours so that I could get to you. I was miserable without you.”
“I know that feeling,” you replied, leaning your head against his chest. Chris lightly rubbing your stomach before sliding his hands up to your breasts, fingers tips rubbing against your nipples. “Babe, did you lock the door?” you asked.
“Don’t worry, I got Scott another room.”
You reached your left hand behind you grabbing on to Chris’ head bringing his mouth to yours. Chris kissed you deeply, your back automatically arching at the taste of his tongue.
“Was he mad?” you asked.
“I don’t even care,” he replied, rubbing his nose against yours.
“Neither do I.”

[7:21p.m.] A Couple of Whipped Besties, One Could Say...
~
Sapnap x reader
Fluff
A couple of sus betsies - enjoy!
~
Sapnap smiled proudly at the beautiful view in front of him: you sitting in his gaming chair, beating the shit out of George on a minecraft PVP server.
Naturally, as Sapnap’s best friend, today marked your third night sleeping over at his house, the usual.
You two simply couldn’t get sick of each other.
Sure, he was annoying and relentless sometimes, and maybe you were a bit stubborn and moody; but regardless, both of your personalities clashed and complimented each other perfectly - creating a close friendship. 
Even though your friendship was his most precious treasure, Sapnap couldn’t help but be dissatisfied with it. 
Not because he wasn’t happy with you... but because he wasn’t happy with you. 
incase you need further elaboration:
Sapnap done went and caught feelings for you. (no earnings)
Leaning over your left shoulder as you gamed, Sapnap side-eyed your facial expressions as you passionately played on the computer monitor in front of you, flexing your weirdly amazing skill at PVP.
He admired you; you looked cute while concentrated. Critting George’s player with your diamond axe was Sapnap’s favorite sight to see. Your eyebrows furrowed the slightest bit and your eyes shined as you attempted to predict George’s next move. 
Not to mention you were also hot as fuck. Sapnap didn’t need to admit that though...
Not only were you his cute best friend, but you were also a super skilled player. He seemed to get the best of both worlds when it came to you.
You can be risky, fun, daring and stupid, but at the same time smart, soft, sweet, and safe. It’s rare to have someone as unique and different as you. You were irreplaceable. 
It also just makes things 1000x better when you’re the reason George regrets his entire PVP career.
Sapnap leaned back into his spare chair, laughing in disbelief at you mercilessly owning George in the game. He could hear George’s screams of absolute terror leaking from the headset on your head; his headset. (dollar tree)
Goddamn he’s whipped. (what a shrimp)
The headphones were a little big on you, which added to the cuteness. Sapnap secretly peered at you love-sickly, sighing in content. It was rare for him to be completely in a haze by you simply doing nothing; for some reason you had him completely under your control today.
Your sudden yell broke Sapnap from his trance and brought his attention to the monitor showing the signature “victory” screen. You squealed hopping up from your chair and doing a small victory dance, laughing at George as he wallowed in defeat. You turn to Sapnap, a wide smile on your face. “Were you watching that? George is SHIT!” You laughed. Sapnap shook his head in disbelief. “Have you been practicing? I have to get you to duel Dream... I doubt you could beat him though. Gogy is just trash.” You giggled with Sapnap at his open criticism towards George, while the trash PVP player on the call scoffed and mumbled incoherent curse words. (ignoring the fact Sapnap lowkey called you trash)
“Well,” you start, relaxing back into his gaming chair. “I’m kind of hungry now. Do you want to go get Chick-fil-a or something?” Just before Sapnap could respond, he was rudely interrupted by George screaming on his headset. “YOU’RE GOING TO GET CHICK-FIL-A?!” The headphones rung. “Are you trying to get cancelled Sapnap?” George joked, making literally no one laugh. You glanced at Sapnap in amusement. His face is twisted in playful annoyance as he ends the call with George. “I guess George is right... Don’t want our precious Sappy getting cancelled.” Sapnap scoffs and rolls his eyes at you playing along with George, a smile on his face. You smirk evilly, standing up to walk across his room to grab your purse. “Whelp, looks like you gotta get your own fast food.” You sling your purse over your shoulder and start heading towards his bedroom door.
Sapnap’s eyes widen at your statement. There’s no way he’s letting you go along with George’s stupid-ass joke.
Before you could leave, Sapnap scrambled to wedge himself between you and his door, stopping you from exiting the room. “Um? You’re dog water if you think you’re pulling that bullshit on me?” He sasses, backing you away from his door.
You hold in your laugh and shrug, putting up a serious face. “We should probably have a break from each other anyway... Why don’t you go out and get McDonald’s instead? I’ll be back in like,” you check your phone for affect. “Like 45 minutes.” You state, looking back up to his pretty eyes filled with betrayal.
Sapnap is frozen. He didn’t think that this Chick-fil-a joke would actually be taken some-what seriously. You wanted time away from him? What the fuck? You two have always been clingy to each other! You can barely go to his fucking kitchen by yourself! 
He took a second longer looking into your shining eyes. Then it all clicked.
You little rat. How cruel are you to be playing with his little heart like that?
Sapnap could turn this situation around in a few different ways.
1.) He could call out your cap right now and you two would go out and get your chick-fil-a, or whatever you want to eat.
2.) He could football tackle you to the fucking ground and make you apologize for saying such buffoonery.
3.) He could go along with your cruel joke, and make you think that he 100% agrees that you two “need to take a break.” He can even go as far as calling it a night and telling you that he’s too tired for another sleepover night.
Sapnap was never the merciful type. As much as he is unconditionally in love with you, he don’t play. 
Option 3 was game.
Sapnap looked up and to the side, pretending to think about your suggestion of “taking a break” like it was a valid choice. Stepping away from his place in between you and the door, Sapnap motions for you to go. “You know what, you’re kinda right. You can go ahead, I think I’m going to call someone.” Sapnap whips out his phone from his back jean pocket and turns away from you, pretending to scroll through his contacts.
This makes you stumble for a second. Did he just... agree with you..? Your heart stops beating for a split second and you debate if you should tell him that you were joking or not. You can barely go to the kitchen by yourself, why isn’t he catching on that it was a joke? You stand still there, looking at his turned back. “Okay... I’m just going to go then.” You say, still not making a move to leave. After a moment of him not acknowledging a word you just said, you start again. “Do you like...” you pause. “want me to bring you back something...” Sapnap turns back to you at that, suddenly deciding to pay attention to you. “Uh no thanks, I’ll just eat something here. You should probably call your mom, she probably wants you home. You’ve been here for what-” he checks his phone for the date. “Like 4 days?” He states, looking back up to you.
Your mouth drops. Hurt fills you heart. Did he really just say that?
Yeah... you have been at his house for a while... but you didn’t think that he was getting sick of you. You usually stayed over there for 4 nights on average before you went home.
You’ve stayed there for 6 days before! And you both STILL mourned the loss of each other’s presence when you left!
(Isn’t this simp culture?)
What does this mean? You stand there is silence just looking at him. It’s not like you could argue; you were the one who said you needed a break first.
You felt like crying. Yes... Sapnap is your best friend and this literally isn’t that big of a deal, but... you love Sapnap. You’d spend forever with him if you could. And you thought he would too. You stiffen for a moment. You know he isn’t your boyfriend; as much as you wish he was, you need to stop acting like he is. 
Him saying he wants to be alone shouldn’t be that big of a deal to you! You guys are friends! He’s standing there, looking at you expectantly, waiting for you to go on, do anything.
While you stand there debating your life choices with hurt written all over your face, Sapnap’s mind is racing a million miles an hour. He literally can’t decide if he should burst out laughing from how well his plan worked or hug you and say sorry for being so mean.
He literally can’t decide - so he does both.
Just as you feel your eyes getting the tinniest bit glassy, Sapnap roars with laughter and pulls you into a bear hug, squeezing your waist with one arm and using the other to pet your hair fondly. “I’m so sorry, I had to, it was too good, that literally couldn’t have gone better-” he rambles. You immediately sulk and smack his shoulder, aggressively hugging him back. “YOU ASSHOLE I GOT SO SCARED!” You groan in embarrassment. You literally almost cried.
Sapnap giggles and hugs you tighter, his smile couldn’t possibly get wider. You sigh in relief, snuggling into his arms. “You actually scared me so bad. That was so weird.” Sapnap laughs again, leaning back from you slightly to get a look at your pretty face. You were pouting. Cute. Sapnap smirked and squeezed your cheek with the hand that was previously petting your semi-tangled hair. “You did it to me first you dimwit, what the hell did you think I felt like?!” He exclaimed. “You literally told me to go home you asshole!” You exasperated. Sapnap threw his head back laughing, pulling you back towards him again. He nuzzled into the side of your neck, sighing happily.
As hilarious as it was watching you go through the 5 stages of grief over this situation, it was also heart breaking all at the same time. He hopes he never has to see that again on a serious note, if he’s being honest. If you ever looked like that when you guys were being legit - it would quite literally kill him.
After what felt like 20 minutes of hugging, you pulled back from the hug and looked up at Sapnap, his arms still attached to the ends of your sweatshirt, keeping you in place. 
As he stared down at your pink cheeks and flustered expression, he felt like he could stand with you here for hours. He wishes he could kiss you.
You rolled your eyes at him as he giggled. “Whatever.” You state, walking out of his hold and over to his bed side table. Sapnap watches your movements in confusion. Once at the table, you open the top drawer and snatch his wallet from inside, your back facing him. “I’m getting fucking Chick-fil-a and if you don’t come, I’m literally going to buy the entire menu with this.” You turn facing him and hold up his wallet. Sapnap’s eyes widen in realization at what’s in your possession. He makes a move to run over to you and snatch it back. Unluckily for him, you were already bolting out the door and to his car.

PINK | 2/? | pjm
summary: A neighbor as pink and hopelessly romantic as you and an equally pink neighbor like Jimin (but without a thing or two in common), sounds almost perfect together, right?. The only problem? That you are madly in love with him but his tonalities are very different from yours.
pairing: park jimin x female reader.
genre: fluff, angst, (maybe in the future a little of smut? not so sure).
word count: 1992
warning: unrequited love, pinning, so much embarrassment, a looooot of pink hehe, hurt, some mxm with ot7, you know…it happens sometimes.
------
Pink, 'cause you are so very
“Sup with the face, sugar?” Seokjin’s voice pulls you back to reality. Or maybe was Jimin’s text.
“Jimin asked me if he should go on a date with the pretty girl of the coffee shop across the street”
“You are a pretty girl” He points you with a finger, looking at you harshly. “And Jimin always says stupid things, so please, don’t overthink this”
“But I'm not the pretty girl he would consider asking out on a date” your voice is almost a whisper, so genuinely hurt that Seokjin can't help the tug at his heart.
“Well, his loss, I’m telling you” He scoffs “He will see you someday—” Tucks a lock of hair behind your ear with an affectionate smile. “ like, really see you. And I hope it's not too late when that happens”
Everyone knows what a wonderful person you are, including Park Jimin.
The only person who apparently lacks this information is you.
And it's not that Seokjin has any feelings of hatred and contempt towards the now black-haired boy; but he didn’t appreciate the way he lured you to him and then pushed you away.
Actually, even if Namjoon thinks otherwise, he is absolutely certain that there is some reason why Jimin's colors look somewhat... dull.
There must be a reason why despite the subtle -quite obvious in Seokjin's opinion- attraction Jimin feels for you, he doesn't let it develop but also doesn't let it stop.
Seokjin just knows it's like that, it's a feeling,
“I love you so much Jinnie, but I don't want to talk about this anymore” You leave a small kiss in his cheek before you continue talking. “Are you coming for some unhealthy dinner tonight?”
“You know that we will, baby” The wink it throws at you makes you giggle “Namjoon will pick us up ten minutes before we close the store, safety an all, you know my man” You both laugh a little. “Any suggestions?”
“I'm craving a cheeseburger from McDonald’s”
“A cheeseburger from McDonald's will be” It’s a reality, they don’t know how to say no to you. And they don’t want to. “Now, help me with this arrangement, I have never met a bride as demanding as this girl. I swear”
______
"Just when I think you can't get any more idiotic, you come along and surprise me Jimin."
Yoongi’s raspy voice makes him roll his eyes.
“What are you talking about now?”
“You know what. Don’t play dumb with me” He signals his phone with a movement of the head and scolds him with his eyes. Translation: He read the messages. “You can’t keep doing this to her.”
Jimin looked out the window again, exchanging glances with the barista who batted her eyelashes flirtatiously, gifting him a smile that he returned with a smaller one of his own.
She's pretty, he had to admit that. But neither her flirtatious smile nor her long, stylish hair, managed to provoke anything in him.
Not like his small, pink, innocent neighbor.
A sigh left his lips and he returned his gaze to his phone.
“I know”
______
“Are we hungry or what?”
Namjoon enters the shop with his extra-large arms extended, prepare to wrap you two in a bear hug.
“We are always hungry; you already know that hun”
Seokjin takes his face in between his hands with so much delicacy that you want to cry but instead you fake a gagging noise that makes them chuckle and you smile fondly to the presence of their love.
“Let’s go before you suffocate me with so much PDA” You give them a weak smile walking towards the entrance, in a crestfallen manner.
The taller one knows there is something in your voice that doesn't fit the facade you want to sell him, so, he looks to his boyfriend direction with a raised brow and an interrogation mark painted on its face.
His boyfriend answers him with a silent lip movement, a name, clarifying the situation.
Of course, it had to be.
“I cross paths with Jungkook this morning”
“Really? How is he?” Your question doesn’t come as curious as his want’s to, but he keeps anyways.
“You know, hotter than before” Seokjin watches him curious while locking the gate of the flower shop, eyebrow arching and he clarifies his voice. “I might have invited him to dinner today”
Okay, he may not have invited him, but they did crossed paths in a convenience store while the younger one was carrying a bag full of banana milk.
But he will.
“…You did?”
The hesitation in your voice gives him a push.
“Yeah, I mean, is it wrong?”
————
You should have known.
How is it possible that a specimen like Jeon Jungkook exists and on top of that, he is single.
Damn Kim Namjoon and damn his twisted plan or whatever that goes through his prodigy brain.
“You could have warned me that he looked like that!”
“Boring” Namjoon prolonged the ‘o’ “I don’t see what’s wrong. He is hot, you are hot, he is single, you are single. A win-win situation if you ask me”.
“But I didn’t”.
“Irrelevant. We are having an amazing night y/n. You know that I’m not going to force you on a date with Jungkook but I want you to enjoy this moment with me, with us”.
“I am enjoying the moment, excuse you” You murmur.
“No your not. You think that I didn’t see the sadness in your eyes?”
“Nam…”
“No baby, not today” He takes a deep breath and looks at you with so much love and concern. “Please”
Deep inside, you know he is right, that you need a night of rest from the problem in your heart that has Park Jimin as its name.
Jungkook is funny, sweet, attentive and Namjoon isn't lying when he says the four of you are having a spectacular night.
You can see it in your best friend's eyes, the desperation to see you well, happy.
So, you agree.
“But!—” Namjoon waits for whatever that you are going to say “What the fuck with those tattoos? And the piercing? He can’t be real, you created him”
He lets out a thunderous laugh as he wraps an arm around your shoulders.
“Girl, I know”
______
“Thank you so much for having me tonight y/n”
“Oh, no, no” You blush. He chuckles, watching you trying to burn holes in the door of the apartment in front of yours to avoid his gaze. “I-I…eh…Thank you! T-Thank you for coming, like, here, to my house, obviously…oh my god”
You want to slap your face for making a fool of yourself in front of another extremely hot man.
And then, he smiles.
And it's not a smirk or a chuckle that can be interpreted as "I know what I’m doing to you."
It's genuine.
He’s giving you his adorable bunny smile.
“Cute”
If he is about to say something else besides what your brain translated as a compliment, a voice coming from the elevator at the end of the hall momentarily distracts you from it.
“Hey pink”
Although Jimin's greeting is for you, his eyes are intently fixed on the male figure next to you, who watches him curiously.
“Jiminie, you are at home”
Jungkook's eyes travel quickly from Jimin to you, who -with incredible speed for someone so small- runs into the arms of the black-haired boy standing in front of the elevator door.
The gears in his brain working at full power, stopping abruptly when this guy drops the bags he was carrying on the floor so he can wrap his arms around your waist, still throwing daggers in his direction.
Then the realization hits him, and his lips let out an amused chuckle.
This guy must see him as a threat and being honest, he could be.
If you'd let him, that is.
“Yoongi didn't let me escape early, I'm sorry I couldn't make it to dinner with you”
The butterflies in your belly do a triple loop at his words.
"It's okay, I understand" You say turning around but not before grabbing one of the bags lying on the floor and incidentally, the hand he keep unoccupied by the other bags, you turn to Jungkook with a smile "Jungkookie, this is Jiminie, my neighbor!"
“Hi, Jiminie the neighbor”
Jungkook extends his hand offering it in a cordial greeting, while Jimin examines him completely to finally put down the bags and shake it without separating his hand that is holding yours.
“Just Jimin”
You don't quite understand why they seem to be having a battle to the death with just their eyes, in the middle of the hallway, while Mrs. Kim passes by and watches the scene with curiosity.
You give her a somewhat apologetic smile and make a small bow before -trying- to take a step to get closer to Jungkook.
Try, because the moment Jimin detected movement on your part, he pulled your hand with a little force -without hurting you of course-, to return you to his side.
Jungkook catches between his lips the mocking laughter that wants to escape from his chest and instead returns his gaze to you, smiling softly.
"I'd love to stay and get to know 'Just Jimin' a little more, but I'm afraid it's a little late" You can watch from the corner of your eye as Jimin rolls his eyes and turns to the side with a pout on his lips.
Weird.
Not the tantrum, you've seen it multiple times.
The moment. Yeah, that's weird.
"Actually, yes. It's late. Jungkookie from college" Jimin says dryly
For some reason your brain fails to organize its ideas and thoughts, they're all scattered all over the floor of what you assume is the control room in your head.
"Sure" Jungkook replies without looking at him, taking a step to get closer to you, snapping you out of your thoughts "Really, thanks for tonight, y/n"
Jimin knows, he can feel it.
His cheeks must be red and his forehead must have the biggest scowl in history.
Because, who does he think he is, Jungkookie from college, to hug you like that?
Even when his hand is intertwined with yours!.
"Oh" Jungkook's warm embrace brings you back to your senses completely. unconsciously letting go of Jimin's hand to return the gesture with affection "Thank you for coming, I hope Namjoon didn't force you to come all the way here."
"Not at all. Actually, I'd love to meet with you guys again."
When you part, Jimin makes his presence noticeable again, taking your hand quickly with a huff.
------
"I thought only Namjoon and Jin were coming for dinner?"
Jimin lets the question out casually, wishing it wasn't too obvious his need for information from the - apparently - new member of your group.
"Oh, yeah, Namjoon found Jungkook by chance and invited him over for old times' sake."
He can see how you arrange some cans in his cupboard, as if you know the place by heart.
Leaning on his kitchen counter, a smile moves over his lips at the domesticity of the moment.
How can you look so pretty and pink, doing something as mundane as stocking his pantry?
And it's this very thought that forces him to take control of the situation. Because he knows that what happened in the hallway a few minutes ago must have confused you even if you don't show it to him.
And it's not something he can afford.
"I see" Running his hand through his hair -a habit he doesn't intend to abandon-, he starts rummaging through another shopping bag as he continues "Did you read my messages?"
He can see you cease your movements and stand still with a bag of candy in one hand.
"I-I..."
"Nevermind" He Interrupts you "Yoongi advised me on one or two things that might be useful."
"He did?"
No.
But you can't know that.
"Yeah, he did."
------
A/N:
For the people who read the first part, I'm sorry for the delay but I've been going through an unexpected and difficult time, so I promise to make up for the lost time. In the meantime I'll leave this chapter here and I hope you enjoy it and again, I'm really sorry!

OH MY GOD YOU HAVE TO CONTINUE THE DROWNED SERIES, IT'S SO DAMN GOOD
Thank you for the ask, it makes me excited to see that people are still interested.
Drowning Part 10
@shydragonrider @asrasmysoulmate @sunflower1000
This one is kind of short, and probably makes no sense, but it starts to explain the story line a bit more and what my goal is with Supervillain (and perhaps the reason I am not having him rescued... yet 👀). Anyway, not edited.
Ask games for this series are here and here.
Masterlist
Warnings: referring to person as "it", altered state of reality, dehumanization, muzzled, talk of surgery, weaponizing a human, fear

"Okay thank you for your cooperation," the director said as he stopped the recording. He looked up, smiled, and began to pack away his things- an array of various instruments to enable both Villain and Hero's voices to be clearly heard all the way at the Hero Facility.
"Yeah well, I expect my pay within the next two days," Villain crossed his arms and swung his leg over top of the other one.
"That may not be-"
"Director. I am doing this for you guys. I have my record cleared, Hero in my custody, and a billionaire. I don't need to this for you guys."
"But you are in love with the cash," Hero chimed in, rolling her forestry green eyes. Not with attitude or snarky annoyance, but out of pure loathing.
Villain shot her a glare the second she closed her mouth and stood up, pacing. "I want my pay, fifty-thousand for a mere conversation isn't something you come by everyday," he said, rubbing his hands through his blonde mane.
"Yes but-"
"The only reason it was fifty-thousand," Hero interrupted the director. "Is because you pushed it that far." She didn't exactly understand her exasperation. After all, she agreed to do this with him- not that she had a choice. She was, in fact, thankful for him for breaking her out of the facility, even to the point of restoring friendship.
"Well they consented..." Villain's voice trailed off as he stopped his aimless walking. He sneered, a mischievous look dawning on his face. "I could, just for the record, break Supervillain out of his cell easily. Actually, I bet a novice could."
The director stiffened, fingers tapping the screen on his phone, prepare to call the authorities. Hero smiled slightly. After her aided escape, the heroes didn't bother to recapture her or Villain. And it was all because her rescuer threatened the Hero Facility if they tried to reclaim her. It was like he controlled the heroes- and maybe in a way, he did.
"Okay you will get the money! Write him a check or cash him over some. I don't care, just give it to him."
Villain snickered at the director's desperation and fear.
Hero watched as a young girl scribbled a check and handed it to Villain. Then, after than transaction, the whole team wrapped up and left without another word.
"Hmm," Villain said, eyeing the check he possessed.
"What do you want for dinner?" Hero asked, repeating the lines her current maid position required of her- not that she had to, Villain was not strict enough to enforce rules, but cleaning and cooking seemed to put his explosiveness at ease.
"Nothing. I have a date."
A date?!
"You have a girlfriend?" Hero chuckled. "Who is the unlucky damsel?"
"That's besides the point, but she is quite pretty."
"How long have you been dating?"
"This is our third date within the course of two months."
Two months... that was duration of time since she and Supervillain were kidnapped.
"Not that consistent then," Hero commented instead of voicing her curiosity.
"She works as a nurse, so she is quite busy," Villain replied, folding the check and placing it in his jean's pockets.
"I see," Hero replied. "Where is your date? Please tell me you are not taking her to McDonald's."
"That coffee date in the park sounded great," Villain replied. "Then I was thinking Taco Bell."
"No, no, no!" Hero scolded, pushing herself to her feet. "You are not taking this poor girl on a date to a fast food restaurant. You are a billionaire, Villain. Take her to one of those places where they serve an ounce of food for thirty dollars and spoil her."
Villain blushed, pulling at his fingers nervously. "You know a couple months ago I thought I would be taking you on a date."
"Me too," Hero sighed, placing her hands on her hips.
"I guess life took a turn, didn't it?"
"Yes," Hero replied, extending her arms and wrapping Villain in an embrace. Before she let go, she whispered:
"Torture was in that turn to, wasn't it?"
Villain's muscles tensed, he coughed and pulled away. "See you tonight," he said and ran up the stairs to go get changed.
《~~》
All at once, a piece of light, a string of consciousness sprouted through the dark unconsciousness of the patient's mind. It swirled, bombarding lidded eyes with intolerable brightness. They strained, trying to shut, but it was as if the motor lost control- or gained control, depending on which side of the metaphor you are one.
Then the light formed into various shapes, some holding objects of humanoid form whereas others were cubical, rectangular and circular- making the world around the patient pixelated and blurry. Colors rounded to the basis of their hue- cyan swirling into blue, pale yellow whisking itself into an off-white- until the world was a pallette of bland coloring.
The noise, lolling in a sense, but also increasingly obnoxious. Beeps and rings, rumbles and grumbles, but all the vowels and consonants equaled a series of off-tune words, some faded, others marked with clarity.
Not safe, were the only cognitive thoughts. Not safe not safe not safe. He tried to thrash, anything to get away from the looming danger, though his protruding limbs were too weak, will devoid of any resolve.
More sounds rumbled and purred around him as equally slow restraints grappled at his arms and legs- or were they fast paced? The man didn't know. The perception between reality and unreality was dim, as was his ability to process sleed and direction. Heck, he didn't even know his own name, just the anticipated danger.
He coughed, or tried to, some form of blockade in his mouth inhibited any sound, cough or otherwise, to escape. Tears pricked at his eyes, later streaming down his cheeks- he wanted to go home. Home to that dank apartment that couldn't seem to leave his very intellect. He wanted home, needed home...
The shapes around him once again began to evaporate, but this time instead of mixing into like shades and tones of color, they all shifted to one mass of brown-colored mud before it all vanished into blackness again.
《~~》
"Vitals?"
The doctor's voice ran throughout the room as nurses scrambled to check Supervillain over. The room soon sung with a chorus of "Good".
"Then everyone is dismissed other than Doctor and Medic," a new voice, equally as authoritive yet significantly much more of a feminine type.
All the nurses practically galloped out of the room as a hoard, not daring to look at the woman who just stepped in.
"Leader," the doctor greeted the woman. "What brings you here?"
"I've come to look at the project. I heard it just underwent surgery?" The lady spoke, walking up to the bed where the unconscious patient rested.
"Yes, knee replacement surgery," the doctor replied, joining Leader by the bed. Medic appeared across from them, tenderly rubbing her fingers over the supervillain's hand.
"Fifteen hours on the table," Leader continued to speak, observing Supervillain with contempt in her gaze. "Why?"
"We had to replace the entire knee cap with a newly engineered material made from cells of donors and a type of substance formed from titanium to enhance strength and durability. Then we had to connect the nerves and ligaments to the knee so he can control it like normal."
"Also known as a high-tech prosthetic? Why, may I ask, did my project have to get one?"
"Broken knee..."
"Shattered, Doctor," gray eyes darted around to meet the doctor's humble brown ones. "Not broken, but completely shattered. It needs to be fully operational by the end of the month."
"Ma'am, the recovery is going to be rough-" the doctor tried to protest.
"We have serums for that," Leader groaned, throwing her head into the air.
"It is not safe to drug him with much. His cells and blood need to adapt."
"I don't care. I put a lot of time and effort and money into this project. The enemy is going to launch an attack soon, our spies have gathered enough data to anticipate it by the end of the month. You have been soft Doctor, in his training."
"It's been working," the doctor reasoned.
"It's submission, not training. Ever hear of conditioning?"
"I have done some research into it and I believe that we need to take a more-"
"Yes you are right," Leader smiled. "I don't want a bodyguard. I want a weapon with one, single purpose. Eliminate Hero."
"I don't get that," Medic spoke up, her voice soft, yet filled with courage. "Why get rid of Hero when she is not the enemy?"
Leader chuckled, eyes thinkling. "What an ignorant little girl, so cute though. Did you do your make-up today? Hmm." The baby talk rapidly switched to a more serious tone, "She is a threat, even bigger than this newfound enemy. The moment she joins sides, which we know she will, the odds will be... let's say any attempt to stop them will be suicide."
"We contained her once before..."
"She will be mad, you'll see," Leader acquired a distant look in her dreary gray eyes. "Start weaponizing it. Immediately."
《~~》
Run.
Duck.
Jump.
"I love you."
"Love you more."
Punch.
Supervillain was panting for breath by the time he collapsed on the ground, exhausted to the highest extent. Sweat beaded around his hairline- recently trimmed in a convenient, yet flashy style, with a lightning bolt shaved into the side.
"I love you."
"Love you more."
Supervillain groaned, rubbing shaking hands over his face. Turn it off turn it off turn if off...
Everyday started with a morning workout in the gym. The gym had a track running around the whole thing with obstacles for him to duck under and jump over. The center only had a punching bag and a benchpress, but equally sweaty and daunting.
Suddenly, the loudspeaker rang, signaling that Supervillain could leave.
Once, of course, training was done.
Workouts weren't training, they were extra credit designed to get him further, to get him a higher GPA.
The doctor entered the room, so Supervillain stood up- respect, expected and therefore delivered.
"How many laps?"
"Twenty-five, sir."
The doctor took note of that on his clipboard, frowning before asking his speed.
"5 miles per hour, sir."
This time, the doctor smiled. "Good," he praised, then looked at the benchpress.
"Three hundred pounds," the doctor tapped the dumbbell with his pen, still grinning widely. "Nice work, but yesterday you did three-fiftey."
Supervillain whimpered, squeezing his eyes shut. He failed he failed he failed he failed.
"I'm sorry," he whispered, proceeding to walk towards the nearby intern to receive the needed correction.
The intern raised her hands, holding a contraption of metal and leather, and slipped it into Supervillain's mouth. He whimpered upon feeling the cold metal slid onto his tongue. A leather strap held it in place, tightly buckled in the back of his head. From that extended more leather that went over his nose. A chain was linked through the nasal strap, more cold metal on warm skin.
Abruptly, he was pulled forward. The metal pinched that nerve- the one that always ached from the commonly given treatment.
The intern pulled him into yet another white room.
Yet this one contained the most dreaded torture implement.

Tumblr media
The alarm did not go off at 7 am since it was Saturday, yet your eyes have been wide open for about one hour. The sun rays brought light on the ashy winter sky and you lazily shifted in your bed to check the time. How is it only 7:47 while I feel I’ve been laying here forever? You asked yourself in a deep sigh before you threw away the blanket and sat up on the edge of the bed. A life-saving decision you had taken the night before when you braided your hair, for not a single molecule in your body was able to deal with those shoulder-length thick curls after you wasted your night staring at the ceiling. Your body has developed a habit to wake up around 1 am for no particular reason and have you losing your mind over it. Usually, you managed to fall back asleep quickly, but that night between Friday and Saturday you just couldn’t. No one was online on any social media platform, you knew it would take you more time than available to pick one of the thirty million shows that you wanted to catch up on and you didn’t want to fuck up your night completely, so you forced yourself back into slumber. But now it was morning, your eyes tired and your body heavy.
With your mind set on still having a wonderful free weekend, you rummaged through the cabinets in the lovely apartment you had been thrilled to finally afford, in a futile attempt to grab a bite. You breathed deeply while counting down from ten after finding exactly half of a package of Lemonheads and some leftover seafood on a plate in the fridge. The initial plan was abandoned with the calamari as you headed for the bathroom, knowing for a fact that a nice scrubbing session during a dangerously hot shower will whoosh away all the fatigue and annoyance.
Fresh smell, moisturized gleaming skin, proud dark-brown eyes staring at you from the mirror made you put on a cheeky smile and leave the bathroom barefoot. One step into your bedroom and your stomach almost shouted at you. Ah, I do gotta eat something. McDonald’s it is, then. You were quick to agree to yourself and also to get dressed and leave the house. It has been snowing for a few days so the pavements were covered in a dense layer of white wonder, which made you decide to walk to the breakfast provider, instead of driving there. It wasn’t that far and you also loved the city landscapes.
The neon-yellow combat boots contrasted considerably with the red coat and drew the attention of the entire crowd inside McDonald’s, including one specific young man that was sitting alone at a table in the back. He watched your silhouette walk by a group of boys that didn’t even try to mask their reaction to your looks as you headed to the line to place your order.
“Even I know that it’s not nice to stare,” Sukuna talked all of a sudden, startling poor Itadori and causing him to sink his head deeper in the hood.
“Shut up, someone could hear you,” the boy whispered, looking down on his tray to avoid being heard by other customers.
“Is that the girl you’ve been going on about lately?”
“What girl? There’s no girl. What girl?” Yuuji panicked a bit, the heart racing in his chest letting Sukuna know he was right. Again.
“It’s not that hard. Just go there, what the fuck are you so scared about?” The otherwise thoughtless demon cared to push his host up on his feet.
Swallowing his anxiety along with the gallon of saliva in his mouth, Yuuji left his table, threw the sandwich’s wrapping paper in the trash bin when he passed by and stalled in your proximity on his way out. He just wanted to see you better than he could do it on the high school corridors in the lunch break, but blame it on the coincidence theory, that was the exact moment some Lemonheads slipped from the pocket of your black cargo pants when you pulled out your phone. That was a chance he was not willing to sacrifice. He dropped in a squat, picked the wrapped candies and smiled at you.
“I think you dropped these.”
You turned your head in the direction of the familiar voice only to find the cheerfully grinning pink-haired boy that you could’ve sworn you would fight anyone for.
“Hi. Oh, yes, thanks,” you replied in a pretty much measured tone and grabbed the candies from his palm.
“I’m Yuuji, by the way.” The shot was fired and his blood started boiling under the tension of his mind analyzing all the possible ways you could’ve answered to him. You could’ve laughed, whooshed him away, cringed at his boldness, pulled away or even cut his words. But he did not expect you to shake his hand, with a big smile plastered on your face.
“Alex here. Hi. Do you wann-” the number of your order appeared on the big screen and you paused your question, “-be right back at ya,” you smiled at Yuuji and went to the lady waiting with your bag.
As soon as your eyes got away from his face, Itadori let out a brief silent sigh and filled his hoodie pocket with his fists. This is good. I can do this. What if I ask her out? He was deep in thoughts when a lady shook his shoulder. “Young man, are you ordering, or just blocking the line?” The “I’m tired of you teenagers’ attitude” look on her face disturbed Yuuji and he left the spot, joining you at the front desk.
“Wasn’t you supposed to tell me you were out of the pancake meal? Why did you take my money then?” You tried really hard to hold back some yelling, but a vein on your forehead was definitely popping out.
“What’s the matter?” The boy asked, stopping next to you.
Pure sarcasm on your face when you looked from the staff girl to Yuuji. “I shall be starving to death today.”
“Miss, we can give you something else for the same amount. My colleagues weren’t awa-“
“Just give her a refund. We’ll be fine,” Yuuji stepped in and had both you and the other girl confused.
She gave your money back a bit half-hearted, and truth be told, you were feeling like that too, not only because you were hungry, but man, you loved the pancakes and the bacon and the eggs.
“Where are we going?” You asked, following Itadori out the restaurant after he motioned you to do so.
“I always wanted to try this food, instead of the usual fast-food.”
You had no idea what he was talking about, nor where he was leading you, but your guts weren’t agitated. There was something about that boy that screamed “safety” in your ears. The trip to the unknown food place he was taking you was short and you didn’t really get the time to make any small talk. Yuuji turned his body to face you, suddenly spreading and lifting his arm high up, a cheeky grin on his face when he exclaimed, “I present you ‘Gyros’, my new obsession.”
The fact that no word came out of your mouth as you stood in front of him, with your eyes blinking quickly, wiped Yuuji’s smile away. His confidence took a hike when his hands dropped from the air, where they were pointing at the ‘Gyros’ sign. “Should we just go back to McDonald’s?” He asked, rubbing the back of his head and frowning bashfully, not only because your glare fixed him, but also because Sukuna was laughing powerfully inside his mind.
“You. You have no idea where you just brought me,” your voice sounded more serious than you intended, so you giggled on purpose to loosen the tension because Yuuji looked like he was about to pass out from embarrassment. “Boy, relax. I was kidding-“ you barely held back a laugh, “-this is not my first ride with Gyros,” you finished and rested your palm on his shoulder. The pressure in his chest got released once he realized your playful attitude and he redirected his attention to placing an order he was about to pay for entirely.
Food hits differently at the standing tables and so do conversations. There you were, eating one of your favourite foods, chatting with your newest pal and enjoying the view of the tall city buildings that surrounded you. Once he found comfort in your presence, Yuuji opened up and he appeared even cuter to you than he did before. His eyes would gleam when you found his stupid jokes funny and his loud laughter would join yours when you gossiped like two best friends. The cutest thing about Itadori that you found yourself adoring was that he closed his eyes every time he bit on the gyros. You allowed a discreet smile to form on your lips as you admired him and he wasn’t aware of it. No matter how big of a portion you would’ve bought, it couldn’t take you an eternity to finish up your plate. You actually finished yours sooner than the boy, to steal a few more seconds of watching him perform such an automatic and usual activity as eating because he looked so precious doing it.
“Here, help me up.” Yuuji’s voice pulled you out of your daydreaming just as swiftly as the fry that he pushed into your gaping mouth. You chomped on it instantly and caused Yuuji to laugh at your confused face. “Listen, are you busy today? I was wondering if we could wal-“
“Yes, let’s go,” you answered almost instantly, chugging the rest of the Sprite in the paper cup and grinning back at Yuuji who was once again flustered.
The boy’s face flushed red and he smiled at you right before wiping his lips with a napkin and gathering all the food wrapping. “Where do you want to go?” You asked, watching him have a brain glitch for having to wipe his hands on his pants because he has thrown away all the tissues.
“I was thinking of arcade games, but we don’t have to if you don’t want to, I mean…” Yuuji suggested in a low voice causing Sukuna to roll his eyes aggressively. You are even dumber than I thought, brat. The poor boy shook his head to get rid of the voice and by doing that he missed your reply.
“Hey, did you hear what I said?” You shouted, thinking that he didn’t hear you because of all those car horns on the street.
“Yeah, no, sure. Of course, we can do that instead.”
“Bruh, you’re damaged!” You shouted again and started laughing. “I said I will destroy you in the arcade,” you continued, still full-on laughing, the slight touch of your hand on his arm sending him your cheerful vibes.
“If you say so, let’s test it.” Yuuji caught some courage and sped up the pace. “Can you run in those?” He pointed at your boots and chuckled when you threw him a very offended look.
“Excuse you, I can beat you to it!” You accepted the challenge and sprinted away from Yuuji. His light-brown eyes widened in surprise and he started running.
No, you did not win the race. He was already inside RedLine VR when you managed to arrive at the doorstep, barely catching your breath. “I-… I need- … whoa… where did you get that stamina from?” The mock-neck long-sleeved top was practically suffocating you.
“I don’t know. Guess I’m gifted.” Again rubbing the back of his head bashfully, that boy could not be cuter. Or so you thought.
He led you inside the place and even helped you take your coat off as you cracked your knuckles in preparation for beating Yuuji’s ass up in video games. The coloured light from the video game’s display reflected in your gold hoop earrings as much as they reflected in your wide-open gleaming eyes. His eyes spent more time taking in the shape of your face and the colour of your skin more than they did on the actual screen. You unknowingly made him bite his bottom lip when you let out a different type of chuckle. You wanted it to sound devilish, but it didn’t come out quite like that.
Imagine her moaning with that voice, Sukuna busted in Yuuji’s mind, his own rather full of your image, and caused a deep blush on the kid’s face. It was annoying how much affect you had on Yuuji, and he tried to not look at you like that anymore.
Itadori was good at sports, not games, and you won countless rounds leisurely. Each time you shouted your victory, you clapped your hands in delight and made a funny face to Yuuji. He faked slight envy at first, his pathetic whines giving Sukuna a real headache, but eventually, your general happy state made the boy smile. If somebody observed him, they would’ve figured it out in one second that you completely entranced him. As funny as it was to see him struggling to fight you for the first place in the game, you grew bored of the arcade and suggested you went somewhere else.
“Do you want to go to a park?” Yuuji asked, his mind quickly mapping the area for the closest park.
Too many people around, huh? An evil chuckle hit the corners of the poor boy’s head and he tried to keep his secret hidden furthermore.
“A park sounds good, Yuuji. Can I call you Yuuji?” Only after you said it out loud, you remembered about the Japanese courtesy and, feeling a bit weird, you made yourself busy with putting your coat back on.
“Yeah, sure, you can call me Yu-,“ “Daddy,” his voice was cut off by Sukuna’s who whispered loudly enough for the teens around you two to hear.
“YUUJI!” He tried to mask the demon’s voice and covered the mouth on his cheek instantly. “You can call me Yuuji.” He swallowed hard and then smiled as if nothing happened.
“You’re weird, but cutely,” you said with a cheeky smile as you made your way out the room.
He followed soon after scolding his so-called co-inhabitant and walked by your side, between you and the busy road. You took your time walking to Winnemac Park since it would’ve been too much of a bother to take the bus for only one short station. Once inside the park, you felt like the world around you changed: there was undisturbed snow everywhere, Sun was slowly going down and it was silent. Your romantic side emerged and you hung your hand on Yuuji’s forearm. Your affection was electrifying, and even if he didn’t see it coming and hadn’t prepared for it, the boy accepted it gladly by sticking his hand in the hoodie big front pocket, to help your hand rest better on his arm. Fifteen minutes of walking through town have been filled with school gossip, laughing and “get-to-know-you-better” stuff, but as the cold settled down, you both became quieter.
“Hey, look.” You left Yuuji’s side by a couple of steps and you squatted down to grab something from the pavement.
“Wha-“ Boy didn’t stand a chance against your mischievous snowball attack. “Oh, you did not!” He laughed and leaned to the side to gather some snow for his part of the game.
The war was set into motion. Yuuji found it admirable that you managed to dodge many of his shots even while you almost choked on your own laughter. He loved to see you smiling and having a good time, especially because it was due to his actions. For a second, he got lost again in your smile and the snowball that you threw hit him right in the face. The hand he held a snowball in was frozen above his head, as he had prepared to throw it at you before falling in trance. He had no reaction whatsoever and it worried you a hell lot.
“I’m so sorry, Yuuji, are you ok?” You rushed closer to him and wiped the snow off his face with gentle and burning hands.
When his eyes opened, you hated yourself for falling into that old trap. His arms circled you abruptly and he intended to make you fall in the snow, but you proved more agile than he thought and you escaped. Your freedom didn’t last long, though, for he tackled you. Only, he didn’t see that you have reached the margin of the sidewalk and you would’ve fallen on your ass if it wasn’t for his strong grip. He looked astonishing towering like that over you, and not only the situation was somewhat hot, but you also hated to see him win the fight. One of your legs jerked fast and cut Yuuji’s balance, making him fall over you in the snow. Light-brown eyes met dark-brown ones and the imminent sparkle tied your insides in a tight knot. His face was so close to yours that it had you imagine what would happen if you kissed him right then and there. Yet, none of you two moved a muscle, except for the throat muscles who kept gulping timidly.
Alex and Yuuji are in a tree. K-i-s-s-i-n-g! Sukuna’s words echoed in Itadori’s mind and they added to the closeness between your face and his, making him blush deeply. He stood up slowly and helped you on your feet too. Again silence as each of you cleaned the snow off of yourselves, avoiding the awkward moment.
“So, what now? I’m not cold anymore.” You snapped out of it and gave your best to look as normal as before in front of him, even if your stomach had a watermelon-sized hole inside.
“It’s getting late and I don’t really know the city that well at night. You want me to walk you to a bus station or something?” He asked, barely holding his composure in front of you while Sukuna yelled in his mind nonsense like You’re a chicken. A loser. Fucking lame-ass, stupid motherfucker. You could’ve kissed her. You should’ve kissed her! I should’ve taken over the control and kissed her right there!
“Sure. I don’t live far from here actually, you can walk me home if you want,” you suggested, hoping that he won’t interpret it the wrong way.
The weather became surprisingly harsh after sundown and your little coat didn’t do much in protecting you. Instinctively, you neared Itadori more, lured by the warmth his body radiated. As you balanced your gravity centre from one leg to the other, constantly moving your hands to try to keep them from freezing, your hand brushed against Itadori’s, which was hanging loosely by his body. He definitely felt it because you saw his jaw clenching, but he didn’t bring it up. So you did it again.
Oh, man, she’s got balls bigger than you, Sukuna mocked his host and then proceeded to laugh. You’re not gonna do anything about it?
Your ring and middle finger brushed the side of Yuuji’s hand softly as you two continued walking. When his pinkie interlocked with yours, you were no longer cold. The hole in your stomach filled with butterflies and you could feel your heart pounding against your chest. You hated yourself for being that flustered and weak, but from the way his other fingers circled your hand, you knew the feelings would only get more intense. The dark fell rather quickly and you found yourself squeezing Yuuji’s hand, to which he chuckled.
“Are you afraid of darkness?” He asked in a low tone, caressing the back of your hand with his thumb.
“L-lol, no,” you stuttered a bit but smiled as you looked up to Yuuji, who was just teasing you with a gentle look in his eyes.
The way back home is always shorter and you reached the front door of the building you lived in with a lump in your throat. It was time to let go of his hand and maybe, who knew, let go of that moment too. You didn’t know much about Yuuji other than he was a foreign exchange student, who came for who knows how much time in Chicago, he liked Gyros as much as you and he had a lot of running stamina.
“Well, this is where I live, so… see you at school?” You asked sheepishly, slowly growing aware of the blush on Itadori’s face that was now visible because of the street light close-by.
Do it, brat. Do it now. Don’t be a pussy.
“Listen, Alex… Today has been a very nice day and I’m glad you dropped your candies.”
You scoffed at his hilarious confession and attempted to pull your hand away from his, but just as before, in the park when he caught you, Yuuji’s grip remained firm. “No, let me hold it a bit more,” he whispered, taking a step closer to you.
JUST DO IT ALREADY! You’ll thank me later. Sukuna could hear all of Yuuji’s thoughts and feel the desperate hollow in the boy’s chest. He couldn’t take Yuuji’s reticence anymore. Black marks began appearing on Yuuji’s cheekbones and chin and as soon as he sensed his conscience being ripped from him, the boy shouted. “Ok, ok, I’ll do it!”
“Uhm, I didn’t ask you anything… What’s wrong?” You squeezed his hand once more as you tried to understand what was just about to happen to his face and why he screamed like that.
“Ignore that. It-it’s a long story and I’d rather not tell it now,” Itadori released your hand and stared at you dead in the eye. “How mad would you be if I kissed you right now?”
Your face caught fire. Your ears were burning and your stomach was doing front flips. You barely got to whisper anything before Yuuji’s palms grabbed your cheeks and he slammed his lips on yours. They were soft and warm and he kissed you so slowly that it had you melting in his arms. Your own lips parted to welcome him just as hungrily as your hands tugged at his hoodie to keep him close. He pulled back, eventually, and you smiled at each other in the surprise of what just happened. His forehead leaned on yours and the way you burst into laughter made Yuuji laugh too.
“I hope I didn’t ruin today…” he whispered, rubbing your cheeks with his thumbs, but not parting from your figure yet.
“I can’t wait to see you again, boy,” you cooed, stealing another peck from him before you turned to enter the building.
You barely walked up the stairs with a grin splattered on your face and increased heart rate and once you entered your apartment, you slid down your door and laughed alone for a couple of minutes. That just happened and you were there and he was there and what’s gonna happen now? In the same way, Yuuji called himself an Uber and got inside with palms sweating and a happy frown on his face.
“Finally taking my advice. She was too cute to waste, man. If you didn’t take the chance, I would’ve.”
“Sukuna shut the hell up. I kissed her first.”

also thank you to @notanotherhockeyblog95 for pre-reading this for me <3
Consequences Masterpost
Outtake: The Proposal
Matt was planning something.
You knew this because after being with him for four years, you knew him inside and out. So you knew he was acting strange. Strange enough that Henry noticed the way his father was acting.
“What’s Dada doing?” Henry asks, watching his father literally tip toe to the coat rack and slowly put on his jacket as if doing it slowly makes him invisible.
“Being a fool.” You replied, rolling your eyes as you watched him quietly leave the house. You turn your attention back to the toddler sitting in front of you who is looking more and more like his father every day. Hair curly and out of control and eyes the same color blue, he looks exactly like the mini Matthew you were expecting.
“What’s a fool?” Henry asks.
“It’s a silly person.” You tell him, tickling his sides and laughing when he squeals and jumps on you wrapping his arms around your neck and snuggling into you. You treasure these small moments you have with Henry because with the new baby due any day now, your little family of three will become four. 
And you can’t wait.
. . . 
“Can I take you out tonight?” Matt asks while you’re eating dinner a few days later. 
“Date night isn’t until Thursday.” You remind him, because there’s no way you can get a sitter on such short notice. 
“Noah said he would watch Henry.” 
You raise an eyebrow at him in disbelief. “I’m not trusting Hanifin to babysit our child. Do you not remember what happened last time?”
He winces and you know he’s thinking back to the walls covered in permanent marker and the flood in the bathroom. 
“Becca said she would come over too.” 
The short notice and secrecy is strange and it bothers you a little but you shrug and agree.
“Sure.” 
His face lights up and he nods, shovelling the rest of his food in his mouth as if he was raised by wolves. 
Chantal would be very disappointed.
After you finish dinner, Matt rushes you to get ready, telling you that he will clean up the dishes and start getting Henry ready for bedtime. 
When Becca and Noah show up, Matt leads you out to his car and opens the door for you like the true gentleman he’s turned into. You find things that make you fall in love with him even more every single day. 
“Can you tell me where we’re going, or is it a surprise again?” You ask, smiling when he grins.
“When have I ever not surprised you when it comes to date night?”
“Fair point.” You say, looking out the window and trying to figure out where he might be taking you. It’s about twenty minutes when you arrive at the destination and it takes a minute before you realize where you are.
“This is the building that the Flames organization uses for charity events.” You say and look at the building which has all lights turned off and looks completely deserted. 
“It’s also where I met you.” He says, and you turn to look at him. He has a soft smile on his face and you tilt your head in question but he just shakes his head. “We’re not staying.” 
He pulls out of the parking lot and starts to drive farther into the city until you reach an apartment complex. It takes you a moment before you realize it’s his old apartment building.
“Planning on moving back here?” You joke and he laughs but shakes his head. 
“This is where you told me I was going to be a father.” He says quietly and you hum. 
“I was terrified when I was on my way to go tell you.” You say, looking back at the building. “I seriously considered turning around and going back home about ten times.” 
“I’m glad you didn’t.” He jokes but there’s sincerity in his voice too. You turn to look at him again and he’s staring at the building too. When he realizes you’re looking at him again, he grins and starts driving again.
You’ve decided by now to not question what his plans are. You know he won’t tell you so you just enjoy the quiet time because it’s not something you have with him often, not with a little toddler running around. 
The next place he brings you is to the clinic you went to when you were pregnant with Henry. You’ve switched since, choosing to go somewhere closer to where the new house is. 
He’s quiet for a moment after he parks and you think back to the good and bad memories of this place. From hearing Henry’s tint fast heartbeat for the first time to the appointment that Matt missed.
“I thought I lost you here.” He says after a couple of minutes. “I knew I messed up and I was convinced you were done with me.”
“You made a mistake.” You say quietly. “We all do. But you made up for it which is what matters.” 
A small smile crosses his face. “I thank my lucky stars every day that you forgave me.” 
You’re not sure what to say so you lean towards him the best you can and press your lips to his cheek.
“How could I not?”
He just smiles and kisses you before pulling out of the parking lot and down the street to a McDonald’s. 
“We went here after our first ultrasound.” He says even though you already know. “I just remember sitting there thinking how beautiful you were.” 
“Sap.” You mutter but you can’t stop the blush that warms your cheeks. “I’m starting to think this is a trip down memory lane. Where to next?” 
He grins and about fifteen minutes later, you find yourself sitting in the parking lot of the hospital where you gave birth to Henry. 
“This is where we became a family.” He says softly and your eyes start to water. “It’s where I realized I was in love with you.” 
Matt’s told you he loves you more times than you can count but each time you hear it, it makes your heart race and butterflies go crazy in your stomach. It’s a feeling you hope you never lose.
“One more stop.” He murmurs. 
You recognize where you are going now, he’s taking you home. While going for the drive with him was nice, you’ll admit that you’re a little disappointed he didn’t have more planned. Henry will be asleep by the time you get home so you’ll have some alone time at least. 
When you get home, Becca and Noah are quick to leave which leaves you a little confused because they would typically stick around a little longer. You miss the look they both give Matt because you suddenly notice that the backyard is lit up. The steps you take towards the back door and outside are tiny as you realize what’s happening.
There are lights strung along the white fence lighting up the backyard and flower petals are sprinkled on the grass. You know that Becca and Noah must have set this up while you were gone which explains why Matt brought you for a drive.
“Y/N.” 
You slowly turn around when you hear Matt say your name softly and your eyes instantly fill with tears when you see him kneeling on one knee, grinning like he’s gotten away with the world's biggest surprise and really, he has. 
A simple looking box holding the most beautiful engagement ring is sitting in his hand. 
He clears his throat as you walk towards him and you can see how nervous he is but his smile never wavers. 
“I know we didn’t really do things traditionally but I don’t care because no matter how it happened, it led me to you. It led me to this moment right now. I love you and Henry more than anything in this world and I would love nothing more than to be able to call you my wife.” He takes one of your hands in his and squeezes it gently. “So will you marry me?” 
You know you’ll cry if you try to speak so you just nod, letting him take the ring out of the box and slip it on to your finger where it will stay for the rest of your life.

guardian as a title {Machine Gun Kelly}
Summary: Casie's not technically your kid, but as you think about your future with Colson, maybe that won't always be the case.
A/N: 2512 words. I keep seeing fics about having a kid with MGK, but there's a lot of folks who can't have kids or don't want to have kids, but they shouldn't be excluded from having fluffy family fics!! And hes already got a kick ass daughter, so here. Written on my phone so potentially buggy. I just kind of love writing MGK who's so loving and protective of his daughter okay??
----
It took a long time to meet Casie. Colson had been hesitant; if you met his daughter, that meant whatever was going on between the two of you was real, was serious, and he'd been burned too many times to make that step so easily. Of course she knows about you, but she understands her father's hesitation, and the two of you unknowingly share patience, waiting for Colson to feel ready.
So you and he had been dating for almost a full year before you finally meet her. He picks a fancy restaurant for the three of you, and as you're making your way there, you realise you're actually nervous. By now you know where you fit in Colson's life; his friends like you, even his management team likes you, but Casie? You have absolutely no idea how she feels about you, but you know without a shadow of a doubt, that if she ends up not liking you, you can kiss any sort of future with Colson goodbye. To him, Casie hangs the stars in the sky, and he'd choose her every single time, not that you'd ever expect anything different. 
You get to the restaurant first, and the reservation is under his name, so you head on in and nervously start on the ice water they bring to your table. About five minutes later, you hear Colson call your name, and you look up from your phone, eyes wide, and stand abruptly. Casie looks nervous too, all of seven years old in a pair of dark blue jeans and a pretty blouse, and you smile at her as they approach.
"Hi," she's quiet, looking you over and evaluating you, and after a moment you offer your hand. She shakes it, grip surprisingly strong for a seven year old, and she tells you its nice to meet you.
"Its nice to meet you too, I've heard so much about you," you tell her, and she gives a little smile at that. Colson pulls out her chair for her and she thanks him. She's so proper, making a show of putting her napkin in her lap as you pour her a glass of water.
Its awkward at first, of course it is, but then Casie asks what you think of the album Colson's about to release, and the tension breaks. Your enthusiasm for his music goes a long way to reassuring her it seems, and its suddenly much easier to relax into the conversation. 
After dinner, you suggest swinging by McDonalds for milkshakes, and Casie practically cheers. You graciously slide into the back seat before any confusion arises, and when Casie's putting on her seatbelt, Colson looks over his shoulder to you and gives a warm, grateful look. Its going better than he'd hoped.
Its still a little strange; you practically live with Colson, though previously you've been crashing on a friend's sofa whenever Casie's come to visit, so its strange to wake up in his house on a Saturday morning, and find the two of them eating waffles and watching cartoons. It's… endearing. 
Casie's staying for two weeks this time, and on the third day of her stay, Colson's called away for a meeting about his album that was releasing in a few months. He says it'll only be a few hours, but you need to watch Casie. Its easy enough to keep her entertained; after lunch she pulls out her DS, and sits next to you, not really paying attention to the Spongebob rerun on TV.
"What are you playing?" You can't help but be intrigued at the strangely familiar music coming from the device. She turns the screen towards you and you see a little dog panting happily. Nintendogs. A wave of nostalgia hits you. "That game's so old," you say with a gentle smile, but Casie just looks confused. Its turns out to be Nintendogs + Cats, but the premise is still the same. She's surprised that you take such an interest in the game, and is more than excited to show you the tricks her dogs can do, and tells you very matter-of-factly that you can walk the dog to the dog park, so long as she supervises. By the end of the day, the two of you are acting like old friends, and Colson comes home to the pair of you curled up on the sofa trying to decide which dog she should get next in the game. 
She names it after you. Its far more touching than you realised it would be.
For the next few months, whenever she visits, she makes sure to tell you how Y/N The Dog is doing, right up until she gets Animal Crossing: New Leaf and lets Nintendogs fall to the wayside. 
You love her dad, and you take a genuine interest in her, and after several months and a few meetings over coffee, her mom trusts you to look after her when Colson's away doing press for his album and his new tour. Thats all that matters to Casie. 
You start to think the world of her; she's an incredible kid, bright and fun, but strangely sensible at times, and effortlessly cool. You find yourself thinking that if you were ever to have a kid, you'd want them to be like her, though you know children of your own aren't on the cards for your future. You'd known that for a while now, and so did Colson, though neither of you try to dwell on it much. 
Whatever chance Colson takes to support his daughter, you're there too. Recitals, public speaking contests, science fairs; if you're able to be there, you'll be there, making a conscious effort to befriend her mother along the way. Its clear you intend to stick around; you're good for Colson and you're good for Casie, and that's the mpst important thing.
As your year with Colson turns to two, to three, to four, the two of you start to consider what your future together would look like. 
He proposes quietly over dinner at the same restaurant he took you and Casie all those years ago. Of course you say yes. Of course you both FaceTime Casie the next day and she cheers so loudly her mother's dog starts barking in the background. 
"Can I help plan your wedding? Please, please, please?" She begs, and it hits that oh, that's right, a proposal leads to a wedding. You had been so caught up in the moment that the reality hadn't quite hit you. You were going to marry Colson Baker. Your smile widens at the very thought. 
"We'll talk about it when you're next here," Colson tells her with a grin, his hand in yours, fiddling with the engagement ring. Casie is over the moon, and her mother peers into the video chat wearing a warm smile, congratulating you both. 
After the call ends, you're quick to start peppering him with kisses.
"Do I take your last name?" You ask, breathless, straddling him.
"If you want," he shrugs, easy smile on his lips.
"Y/N Baker." There's a kind of awe in your voice as you say it, and Colson reaches out to cup your cheek in his hand, and you turn and press a kiss to his palm.
"Y/N Y/L/N-Baker," he suggests softly, and your expression lights up as you lean into to kiss him again, a giggle escaping you.
"I hadn't even considered hyphenating!" You say with delight. 
Casie helped pick the wedding colors, and was quick to start a pinterest board for inspiration, and seemed more excited than ever, bursting with ideas and always eager to help, always asking questions.
"So you're gonna be my step-mom?" She asks, and you make a thoughtful noise in the back of your throat. You're on your phone looking through wedding dresses, and she's playing Breath of the Wild on Colson's Switch, and she pauses the game to look at you. "Do I have to call you that?" She sounds dubious, and you laugh lightly.
"No way," you assure her, "only call me your Step-Mom if I start acting like a Disney villain, okay?"
Casie snorts a laugh and agrees, going back to her game, but something about the interaction sits with you. You keep thinking about it, keeping coming back to it, and you're not quite sure why until the day she breaks her arm trying to skateboard in the driveway. 
Thankfully its Summer and you're home, but Colson's on set filming The Dirt when you hear her start to cry. You get her to the hospital quickly and call Colson, and he says he's on his way. The nurse approaches you, looking at the paperwork you've filled out.
"I'm so sorry, ma'am," and that's never a good sign, "we really need a parent or legal guardian here to fill out this paperwork for her."
"I'm going to be her step mother in less than a month-" you tried desperately, giving a crestfallen look to where Casie was being administered pain medication. The nurse gave a deep sigh, and you already know that almost step mother isn't enough, "her dad's going to be here in fifteen minutes." You tell the nurse, and she gives a patient smile, somewhat reassured.
Colson comes in his full Tommy Lee getup, and rushes to wrap Casie up in as much of a hug as he can without hurting her. Its a heartwarming sight, and just having him there eases the rest of Casie's anxieties.
"They wouldn't let a doctor see me because Y/N's not my legal guardian," she whined, a little out of it from the pain medication, "she takes such good care of me; everyone here's a dick," she grumbles, and Colson laughs gently, sitting beside her in the hospital bed, casting you a grateful look. He won't admonish her on her cursing, not here, not now. There's a warm fondness blooming in your chest at her words, a protectiveness that you hadn't realised you'd been harbouring until today.
Casie stays in the emergency department overnight, with you and Colson by her bedside the entire time. You call to inform her mom, who's just glad that you got her to the hospital quickly. The next day, she's released with a cast and pain medication, and is entirely too grumpy for her usually sunny disposition, though she cheers up quickly when you tell her she can have whatever she wants for lunch and dinner.
"I'm gonna have a cast for your wedding!" She bemoans the next day, reading over the instructions the doctor had given you.
"And you're gonna look fantastic regardless," you tell her, but she just throws herself onto the sofa with a huff. Eventually she rolls onto her side and switches on the TV, occupying herself while Colson calls you into the bedroom.
He's sitting on the edge of the bed, fidgeting, looking surprisingly serious. When you enter, he looks up, expression pensive.
"Everything okay?"
"I just hate to see her in pain," he admits with a sigh, but you can tell that's not all that's on his mind. You won't push him, will let him work up to whatever he has to say, and so you just sit on the bed beside him and wrap an arm around him.
"So I've been thinking," he starts, "and Casie's been thinking it too, and we ran it past her mom, because we wanted everyone sort of on board before we brought it to you," and you're not quite sure where he's going, but your heart is in your throat, "and yesterday just made me think we should have talked to you about it sooner -"
"About what?" You ask, voice quiet.
"What do you think about becoming one of Casie's legal guardians?" A bright warmth floods through you at his question, and your at a loss for words, so he continues, "you do take care of her, and you know, you're family, and she adores you, and it means there won't be anymore shit like what happened yesterday at the hospital -"
"She'd sort of be my kid too?" You ask, quietly hopeful, and Colson goes quiet, takes in your smile and realises what he's implying. Slowly, he nods.
"She'd be your kid too."
"And she- you're all okay with this?" 
"Casie and her mom both love you, babe, you've made it clear that you put her safety first; her mom wouldn't have agreed otherwise."
"And Casie… wants this?" 
Colson nods sincerely, pulling you in close to him.
"What do you think? I know its a lot of responsibility -" he starts, but you cut him off, grinning.
"I'd kill for her; honestly I couldn't ask for a better kid," you tell him, and he's trying and failing to suppress and enormous grin.
"She's is gonna roast the shit out of me for taking so long to ask you," he admitted, and you snort a laugh, "I had to talk her down from a proposal of her own, though I will say, she designed a pretty sick banner. Ask her about it, I'm sure she'd love to show you." He chuckles fondly, before growing quiet and contemplative, "I'm so happy about this, babe."
"You should be," you huff out a laugh, but there's a disarming sincerity in his eyes when he looks at you.
"No, I mean it, before I met you, I was always so fucking worried that the girls I met would be put off by me having a kid, or they'd get jealous of the attention I give her, but she's my fucking daughter, man, and I knew if I met someone who loved her even half as much as I love her, I'd have hit the jackpot," he paused, giving you a warm, appreciative look, "and here you are."
"Oh," and you feel tears pricking your eyes, unable to stop smiling at the sentiment, "you're a good fucking dad, you know that?"
"I hope so," he says softly, before his expression brightens, "you wanna go tell her the good news?"
You head down to the living room while Colson collects himself, and you find Cassie drawing on her cast with sharpie. 
"Hey, you mind if I float you an idea?" You ask, sitting beside her. She hands over the sharpie and offers her cast for you to sign.
"Is it about the wedding?"
"Not really," you say airily, avoiding her intrigued gaze, "what would you say to me becoming your legal guardian?"
Casie cheers before you can even finish the question, and before you can finish signing your name, she's wrapping her good arm around you. 
"You're gonna sort of be my kid, is that okay?" You hear yourself asking, and she rolls her eyes, grinning.
"No, I'm cheering and hugging you because I hate the idea," she snickers, sarcasm dripping from her words, but she gives you a sincere smile, "dude, I love you, I'm pumped to be your kid, can you not tell?" 
My kid, you think to yourself with a smile, the best kid I could ever ask for.

"So we meet again, Clairvoyance."
"It appears so, Silver Streak. Back for another ass kicking?"
Jessie faced off against Adam. He really was the most fun to fight, they both got really into their monologues and usually ended up dramatically trash talking eachother more than actually fighting.
Adam stuck out his tongue. "You know I won fair and square last time, you pulled a dirty trick with literally throwing Menagerie at me."
Jessie shrugged. "He was only in wolf form, not like he weighed that much. I wouldn't have thrown Elephant-Thomas at you."
While they were talking, Jessie tried to peer into Adam's mind. Concentrating, she began to pick up his thoughts. "Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you do-"
At Jessie's confused expression, Adam started to giggle.
"You bastard, did you seriously Rick-Roll me in the middle of a fight!?" Jessie cried.
With Adam still cackling like a witch, Jessie used her telekinesis to pick up a brick and throw it at him. But, as she threw it, a thorny vine caught the brick and hurled it away.
Jessie swore as she looked behind her to see Chokeweed had snuck up and was now sending his vines at her. She started batting them away with her telekinesis, but there were too many, and soon her hands were bound and she could feel herself being dragged into the main Villain Building. She started swearing viciously at Adam and Ethan, who were now both laughing as Ethan's vines dragged her, along with Electra and Jack Frost down to the holding cells under the building.
-----
Once the three villains had been placed in power dampening cells, Silver Streak and Chokeweed were replaced by Ember and Menagerie, who were on guard duty that day.
Jessie turned to Eva, who was looking a little bit worried. "Ok, kid, it's your first time being captured isn't it?"
Eva nodded.
"So," Jessie began. "What usually happens, is when we lose a fight and get captured, we usually get taken here to wait until we either escape, or get rescued or ransomed, or Red Hornet forgets about us and someone comes let us out. I used to lean toward escape, but that's a lot of work, and only usually good for annoying the guards because usually we get caught again. I tend to wait it out here until someone rescues us. It's probably gonna be Leah today, she's the best at rescue missions."
Eva looked a bit less concerned. "So we're not gonna get in trouble for being captured?"
Jack looked over at the girls. "Nah, bro, it's all good, happens all the time. Worst that will happen is Jessie and Izzy get bored and start to argue with eachother over something pointless."
Ember looks over, offended. "Hey! I disagree, the worst that happens is when you and Tommy are both here and just make out the entire time!"
Jessie points at Izzy. "I agree with her."
Eva looks visibly more relaxed. "So we just like, chill here?"
Thomas laughs, "Yeah, pretty much."
-----
"Izzy. Izzy. Izzy. Izzy. Izzy. Izzzzzyyyyyyy."
Izzy looks over at Jessie. "What the hell do you want?"
Jessie grins. "I'm hungry, can you get me McDonald's?"
Izzy scowls. "Bitch, I'm on duty, I can't just leave to get McDonald's."
"Only guard duty, nobody's gonna care," Jessie replied. "Tommy won't snitch, right Tommy?"
Jessie glances at Menagerie for conformation. He nods.
Jessie starts chanting. "McDonald's McDonald's McDonald's McDonald's."
Quickly, Electra, Jack Frost, and even Menagerie start to join in the chant.
"McDonald's McDonald's McDonald's McDonald's."
Izzy sighs. "Fine! Fuck you all, though."
-----
A small portal opens up, and out steps Slip Space and one of Bright Shadow's strongmen called Goliath.
"We have come to rescue our brave comrades from the horrors of your evil dungeon, you dreadful villains!" cried Leah, grinning.
Menagerie looks up from the poker game that everyone was playing, using fries and chicken nuggets as the chips. "Oh no," he said, monotone. "However will we stop you?"
Ember makes a half-hearted fireball and tosses it at Slip Space, who portals it away.
"Please take them," Izzy said. "Eva has won literally all of my French fries."
Leah laughed and gestured at Goliath, who broke the lock on the cell door. The three heroes walked out of the jail and through Leah's portal.
"Oh dear, they're escaping," Menagerie said, as he took a sip from his diet coke.
"Hey, wait! You forgot this!" Izzy yelled, and threw Jack's unfinished cheeseburger through the portal after them.
Thomas looked at Izzy. "So," he said. "There were four of them, and they knocked us out and tied us up and broke the cage."
Izzy balled up all the trash and ate the few remaining nuggets. "Let's make it six," she said, as she and Thomas went upstairs to go tell their boss that those sneaky heroes have escaped yet again.

19.11.21
It was another early morning to get through just because we were asked for it. They asked to keep them company when they would run their errands in town. We were at their place around noon and we were welcomed by Krzysiek. He was the one that got us to the bus stop. Once there, Monique got out cause she was oh so eager to walk again. A little walk wouldn't kill even them, so a walk it was. We got to a store on our way. Well, Piers bought us some stuff, mostly food, but of course he wasn't going to eat it. He was replaced by our little reptile but it was too cold for him to even finish eating. The knight in shining armor had to take his place but he wasn't even recognized by the others. He wasn't offended, we had a pretty good laugh about it in the end. When everything was done and closed, we caught a bus to get to our date spot. They even talked to a random woman on the bus which was... a bit surprising but not bad after all.
We didn't even have to wait to be kicked out the moment we got to the park. It was awfully awkward at first but Grzesiek was trying his best to talk about something, like their past in the music academy or the nearby playground, or anything that came to his mind at the moment. We kicked pebbles around and it honestly helped us feel better around each other in the end. Yeah, when I feel better around folks, I walk in a different way, big deal. Grzesiek felt bad but ignored it well enough to walk up some stairs and even talk me into taking some pics. I agreed but I wasn't too willing to do so at first.
Tumblr media
We got to the more unkept part of the park but that was the finish line for Grzesiek. According to their system, he passed out in their Headspace and had to be replaced by Artur. I stepped back to let our host spend some time with him and talk, and even try helping him keep his balance depite their hurt leg. They decided to get a bus to one of the malls. A few their switches later Monique was the one on the bus with us.
We had to switch busses and Margot got out to wait with the host at a bus stop. The next bus we got on was our doom bus, in a way. We saw our grandma there but we were really xx lucky that she didn't walk too close to us. We could go on our marry way after she got out.
Dominique really wanted to try some new McDonald's menu, so she was the one to front at the mall first. When the food's involved, 90% of the time the dragon gets out cause he's always (and I mean it) hungry. Not sure if it was to impress someone or not but he got two trays at once and got to one of the tables without spilling a drop. The main topic to talk about was obviously food but it was... fine, good to see him opening to people. We were supposed to get some ice cream after, so Lance got out to eat it with his princess Claire (the Slytherins laughed at her that she's like a cow with her second stomach for sweets). Even she couldn't handle all the food, so he had to finish her ice cream. And he even liked it more than the one he got for himself.
They went for a little walk after eating, so they could handle it somehow. The place they wanted to get to was closed for good, so they decided to go somewhere else. Artur had to get out at some point to save Claire from something that could possibly trigger her but he ended up having a long nice talk with Lance about anything and everything all at the same time. They backed off just at the door to let me nad Grzesiek out again.
After the first round of beer I got actually asked out. It was awfully sappy but... honestly? I wasn't complaining. I said yes. Two fuckin persecutors got together but I think that both our systems are actually pretty happy about it. Why? No idea. We wanted to get some mulled beer but it was actually pretty cold. But hey, SOMEONE noticed and we got two extras on the house. A shot to go for each of us and we'd be gone. Grzesiek didn't pay much attention to the fact that it was a pretty public space and actually kissed me right on the mouth. Way to go.
Was it too much alcohol? Yes and no.
We almost got to their flat but just before we got in, he kissed me again. Not gonna lie, it wa pretty passionate. I liked it and it only got better when he pushed me agianst the nearest wall. It turned me on enough to remder me basically useless at the moment. To make things even worse, these mfers decided to keep me at the front to most likely make fun of me. Grzesiek backed off immediately and honestly? Being awfully turned on AND mad is a pretty bad combo. I know that he didn't want to push it but...
It went fast from there and the alcohol only added to that. We got on the bed and Grzesiek basically sat on top of me to kiss me and bite my lips. How could he know about it? I was shivering under his bites and kisses. We started dry humping each other and... well, one time wasn't enough for me. It was an obvious surprise to Grzesiek but he didn't deny me that. As if... I got satisfied twice nad I had no regrets about it. Even if it meant me basically passing out. He decided to let Margot out after that, so she could use one of the songs to pull our host out as well.
The two kissed but somewhere in the middle the dragon popped out and it made him awfully embarrassed. He ended up falling asleep right across the bed but he was making distressed noises in his sleep. He was left alone both in and out and he absolutely HATES it. Margot tried helping him with hugs... it helped but she had to do it a few times.
Piers got out some time later to talk to Annabelle about stuff but of course it ended up awkward as all hell. Really, man? Can't you do one thing right?
Our host had to go for the last possible bus there was, even knowing that the morning shift was right ahead. Getting up after less than 4 hours of sleep wasn't something that crossed anyone's mind at that time. Of course.

To you, being an idol isn’t the easiest job in the world. Or the most ‘joyful’ one either. It’s almost like a one-way ticket with no way to return to where you came from. You’re in it, to make a living out of it. There are ups and downs on being an idol. Yes, being an idol means you get the opportunity to see the world, meet new people, being invited to the A listers party, and to inspire people all around the globe. But, being an idol has it’s down too. People would literally comment on everything you say, do—even wherever you go. One false movement then you could end up in the gossip column or even be thrown at a scandalous news to the world. Small conversation with the opposite sex might attract new romance rumors, when really—they’re just having a friendly conversation. If you’re going on a hiatus, people might think that you’re hiding something, of you’re waiting until some scandalous news about you die down before you go back. It’s hard.
But it’s harder when you’re dating another idol.
You met him right after an award show. At that time, it was raining and you were wearing a revealing dress. It was cold, so you were hugging yourself basically.
           “You cold?” A voice asked you. You turn to see none other than the man standing with a matching blue suit.
           “Ah, yeah… My manager is… somewhere, I guess… She left my coat in the car, so here I am, freezing to death.” You joked, and he let out a chuckle before he could take his suit off.
           “Here, wear mine first.” He said giving it to you.
           “Oh, no it’s okay! I’ll be okay—”            “Just wear it, it’s fine…” He said putting it on to you. He then leans in closer to your ear.
           “There are photographers above us, I just don’t want them getting pictures that they shouldn’t take.” He whispered. You turn to him, who was pressing his lips together firmly as he took a step away.
           “Keep it, maybe we’ll meet again someday.” He said before walking away from you as you pull his suit tighter to cover you.
           “Congrast on the win by the way!” He shouted happily and you just smiled.
And you’re glad that the both of you crosses paths for the second time. He was out with his friends, while you were dining by yourself. Wearing a black hoodie and sweats, while he was wearing a black cap, a white t-shirt and a sweatpants with a pair of sandals.
           “The girl with the dress is now the girl with sweats.” He said as he approached your table, and you just giggled.
           “Since, my dress was too revealing for the paparazzies, I need an outfit that covers most parts of my body too.” You winked and he chuckled.
           He looked at his friends for a brief second before turning back to you.
           “So listen, I’m with my friends right now, but I would really love to have a meal with you and get to know you a little bit more in the future, so… can I call you or text you later?” He asked. And you just smiled before both of you could exchange phone numbers.
You talked to him almost everyday until he finally asked you out on dinner. He didn’t want any public media knows about it, so he invited you down to his place where he cooks all of the meal.
           “You cook this much?” You asked as you approached the dinning table in his house.
           “Yeah, I didn’t know how much we’d both be eating, so… I made this much.” He said.
           You turn your head to him and he was smiling from ear to ear. “The more the better.” He said.
He asked you to be his girlfriend on the third date, which was at his place, and the both of you were just watching Netflix until you both got into an intimate conversation.
           “Umm… I don’t know, I think it’s too risky.” You whispered before his forehead could touch yours.
           “I know… but it’s a risk I’m willing to take.” He said.
           You could feel his hand on your back, pulling you closer into his arms.
           “If you don’t want to do it, it’s fine—but I really want to take this chance, even it’s risky.” He said.
           “Nobody can know about us—especially the media!” You pointed out to him, staring deep into his eyes.
           “Especially that.” He said.
           “We have to tell both of our manager so they can help us with our meeting plan, so no media can ever see us.” You told him, and he nodded his head.
           “Of course, we’re just going to keep this out from the media, and our friends.” He said.
           “Okay…”
           “Okay… So you want to do this?” He asked as his eyes traveled down to your lips before he could look back into your eyes.
           “Yes, yes, I want to do this with you.” You nodded your head with a smile, your arms reflexively moved, wrapping it around his neck.    
           “Okay…” He said in a low voice before he could press his plump lips on yours.
You’ve been dating THE Do Kyungsoo—the singer and actor—for 6 months now since that night he asked you to be his girlfriend. You kept this information really close. Your head agency and also Kyungsoo’s head agency already knew about this, and they agree to keep it as a secret as long as it can. Both yours and Kyungsoo’s manager knows about it too, and both of them have been working together to keep all sorts of public attention, medias, tabloids, fans away from you and Kyungsoo. They also helped to arrange on how you get to Kyungsoo’s place without being spotted, or the other way around it and it has been working so well—
So far.
You were currently eating lunch with you co-star near where you were shooting your drama. You could see some fans whispering as they pass by and some of them let out a squeal of excitement. Not long after that, public media starts to trickled in one by one.
           “Ah, the media’s here.” Minjae said, prepping himself to get off from his seat.
           You looked over yoru shoulders and you could see people hurling the front door with their camera ready in hand.
           You nodded your head before getting up from your seat.
           “Shall we go?” You asked, and Minjae nodded his head.
           Before you could leave the place, you thanked the owner by bowing your head slightly as Minjae followed you. He pulled your hand so that he exit the building first, pushing the both of you through the paparazzi and exciting fans.
           Questions were started being thrown at the both of you. Starting from the questions about yoru drama, then to yours and Minjae’s dating life.
           “Can you tell us what the drama is about?”
           “Can we confirm that you guys are having an off-screen romance?”
           “KIM MINJAE WE LOVE YOU!”
           “Is it true that you’re dating (Y/N)?”
           “(Y/N), are you dating DO Kyungsoo at the moment?”
           You heard the question, but you didn’t react to it, otherwise people would already get a confirmation. You and Minjae didn’t answer to any of the questions and proceed to Minjae’s car.
           “Aish… can people move aside, we’re trying to get out from this place.” He said turning his car engine on.
           You let out a light laugh, but really your head was too distracted by the question that was asked by the media.
“(Y/N), are you dating DO Kyungsoo at the moment?”
As Minjae drove his car slowly out from the parking space, you fished yoru phone out from your purse to send a quick text to Kyungsoo.
Hey, are you busy today?
You send the text and as you reached the set, you got a reply from Kyungsoo.
From: K
Just finished rehearsing, why?
But, as you were about to reply, your director was already calling out for you and Minjea to get on the next scene. So you placed your phone back into your purse before you get back into your job. But as the day goes by, you didn’t feel safe, everything was distracting, you lose focus, to the point Minjae asked you if you’re okay. Right after the shoot, you thanked everyone before proceeding to go straight home.  You plopped yourself on the couch of your living room as you opened yoru phone.
4 Missed Calls from K
3 Unread Messegaes from K
From: K
Are you home?
For: K
Yes
As you placed your phone on your stomach, you let out a sigh before you could feel your phone vibrating on you.
“Hello?” You answered.
           “Hey, I’m on my way to you right now, there’s something I need to talk to you about.” Kyungsoo said, and you could feel your body went rigid as you sat up. He must’ve known something.
           “Soo, I don’t think that’s a good idea, I’m scared if the media has secretly followed me home.” You said, getting up from the couch, stepping out to your balcony.
           You saw a couple of people hiding behind the bushes, seemingly ready for Kyungsoo to be caught red-handed to come by to your place.
           “Where are you right now?” He asked you, his voice was stern.
           “I’m at my apartment.” You answered him, your eyes still looking down on the people below.
           “Let’s just meet at my house—but make sure no one is following you.” He added.
           “Okay.” You said, walking back inside before locking your balcony glass.
           “And (Y/N)…” Kyungsoo called.
           “Yeah?” You stopped your tracks as you were putting your coat on.
           “Becareful okay? I love you.” He said.
           “I love you too.” You replied before you could hung up the phone and went straight down to your car.
By the time you hit the road, you knew you were being followed. But you made turns that just didn’t make any sense, you stopped by McDonalds to kill time as well.
           When you got back into the road, Kyungsoo called you.
           “Where are you? I’m already here, waiting for you.” He said in a worried tone.
           “I’m on my way, I was driving around and stopped at McDonalds first, so that nobody is really suspecting a thing.” You told him.
           “Okay, I’ll be waiting for you okay? Becareful.” He said again.
           You hung up the call and continue to drive towards Kyungsoo’s house… while trying to enjoy the fries you just bought.
You parked your car and you can already see Kyungsoo waiting for you outside. He was wearing a khaki pants and black sweater.
           “Hey, come in.” He said, taking your hand before closing the door and locking it.
           He then greeted you before pulling you into a hug.
           “How was your day?” He asked you.
           “It was fine… Until I finished up lunch with Minjae, and then suddenly someone asked if we’re dating—I got distracted.” You told him, pulling away from his hug.
           “You mean, you and Minjae dating?” Kyungsoo asked.
           “No Soo, I mean us…” You said, your voice getting small.
           You can see his expression changed, and his jaw clenched after you said it.
           “I know, because I was asked the same question as well when I walked out of the studio and…” He then walked to the living room where his laptop was sitting on top of his coffee table. He took it with his hand and he showed you the screen.
THE MULTITALENTED DO KYUNGSOO IS DATING THE BEAUTIFUL NATIONAL ACTRESS, (Y/N)
You turn to Kyungsoo, who has his arms crossed on his chest. You took the laptop from him before taking a seat on his couch and proceed to read the article.
It is no mystery that DO Kyungsoo is one of the most favourite idol in the world. And (Y/N) is one of the rising star in the acting world, and is currently working on a drama with Kim Min-Jae. Fans are speculating that there will be an on-goingm on and off screen romance between the two actors. But to what we know is, the actress is having an off screen romance with the Idol, DO Kyungsoo. Both DO Kyungsoo and (Y/N) has been spotted together last month but, none of them shares any statement about their relationship.
You read the article further and it just makes you nervous and furious even more. You placed it back on the coffee table before bringing your legs up against yoru chest.
           “My manager sent me the article, and I told him that I want to talk to you about it first.” He said and you reply by nodding you head.
           “Did he say anything else?” You asked him, but your eyes avoiding Kyungsoo’s.
           “He gave me options.” He said, his tone sounded heavy.
           You turn your head to finally look at him with a raised eyebrow.
           “It’s either, we verified the news, and announce that we are indeed dating, or, we have to part ways for a brief moment.” He said.
           “How long?” You asked him, but he just shrugged.
           “You know it’s a bad idea to come out as a couple for the both of us right?” You asked him. He pressed his lips before letting out a long heavy breath, agreeing to the hard truth.
           Kyungsoo is planning on coming back with a new album with his friends, while you’re still working on your drama. You thought about the damage if you both come out to the public as a couple. Kyungsoo’s music wouldn’t be supported, so will your drama. Fans would start to attack you—especially you, because you know how fans are in this industry. You thought about other scandals that might turn up. Having a relationship with Kyungsoo then, media might stir it up that you’re also having a relationship with Minjae, because most of the time you’re going to be seen with him.
           There was silence between you and Kyungsoo, both of you deep in your own thoughts. You then suddenly felt Kyungsoo’s touch on you knee and you turn to him. He gave you a small, assuring smile before you could smile back. You knew that he has made his decision.  
           “You want to take a pause?” You asked him.
           “I think it’s best we take a pause first, right?” He asked again, and you bit your bottom lip before nodding your head.
           You stared at his closed laptop, feeling your eyes started to sting.
            “I don’t want it to pause, but we have to right?” You asked him, tears started to stream down your face. Kyungsoo quickly moved closer to you as you scrambled yourself to get into his embrace. You could feel his arms pulling you tighter.
           “It’s not fair.” You whimpered burying your face on his chest.
           “I know… but I think this is what’s best for you too baby.” He said, and you just nodded your head. You hate that what he was saying was right.
           “Hey… look at me.” He said, pulling your face and he let out a chuckle as he saw your crying face. He always find it very cute.
           “I thought taking Chanyeol and Sehun to a club would be hard, but this is much harder than I thought. He said, sucsessfully made you laugh a little. “We’re taking a pause, but that doesn’t mean that I won’t be there for you, that doesn’t mean that I won’t take your calls or answer your text okay? I’ll try to be there for you as much I can.” He said, only to make you tear up again.
           “Maybe right now is not the right time for us to be together, but I’m certain that we’ll be together again soon enough when the time is right.” He smiled, despite how heartbroken it is to see you cry.
           You both stayed like that for hours until it was time for you to get back home. As you both walked towards the door, your steps and heart felt really heavy. You turn around before you quickly could put your arms around Kyungsoo’s neck. He was surprised at first, but only to hug you tighter seconds later.
           “I love you (Y/N)… so much, this is the hardest decision we both have to agree on.” He whispered, and you could tell he’s trying his best not to cry too by the sound of his voice cracking.
           “I don’t want to let go…” You whimpered, but you heard him chuckle.
           “Don’t be silly, you have a shoot to do tomorrow right?” He asked, pulling his face so that he could see you.
           He tucked strands of hair behind your ear as he gave you a warm smile.
           “I love you.” He said again.
           “I love you too Soo.” Your voice sounded so small, it was almost a whisper.
           He leaned in, pressing his lips against yours. You felt his grip on your side getting stronger, his lips getting warmer as his tongue explored your mouth. You got your hands all tangled up in his hair as the other one gripped his shoulder.
           You’re going to miss his kisses.
           You’re going to miss his touch.
           You’re going to miss his attention and love.
           You’re truly going to miss him.
           You didn’t want his kiss to end, you didn’t want him to let go of you, you didn’t want this relationship to take a pause. You don’t want to leave. You don’t want this to happen. You wished all of this was a dream.
           Once his lips parted from yours, both of you were gasping for air before you could meet his eyes.
           His hands moved to the sides of your face before he could look down on the ground, and you could heard him sniffed.
He cried.
“Be careful okay?” He said, a tear stream down his face.
           You nodded your head and he kissed your cheek and you lips for the last time before he could fully let go of you.
           You opened the door and walked towards your car. You got into your car and tried to control your mind and you breathing because you’re going to be behind the wheel. You start your car and you saw Kyungsoo standing in front of the door. You saw him with a smile before raising his hand, waving to you. You smiled before you pulled away from the driveway and drove back to you apartment.
As you reached your apartment, you closed the door behind you before you could lean your back to it and slid down to the floor as you started crying. For the past 4 months everything was in the clear. 4 months went by beautifully. But anything beautiful could come to an end as well. You thought about where did it went wrong? Where did you both slipped? Has somebody been spying on the both of you all month long? You continue to run through you memory before turning up empty handed and drag your steps to you bedroom. You changed into you sleepwear and as you were washing your face, you just noticed how puffy your eyes are and how messy your hair was.
           Slipping under the covers, you kepts sniffling, and tears just kept on streaming down your face.
“I love you Kyungsoo…” You whispered to yourself, hoping that maybe you both could be together again.
Because you felt your happiest when you’re with him.

Hello Again // Pt 3 // Jay Halstead x Reader
Tumblr media
Description: You and Jay bond over a mutual understanding while you figure yourself out. 
Words: 3708
Warnings: Domestic Violence, PTSD, Anxiety
Pairing: Jay x Reader
A/N: Thank you all for the continued support. It’s hard for me to write this seeing as it hits a little too close to home. But I do it 1) to help me process it and 2) to bring awareness to the struggles of domestic violence. I hope you all enjoy the new chapter. 
Part 1   Part 2
The weekend went smooth, Jay having switched out with Kim on Saturday night and Hailey taking over Sunday. You weren't expecting Jay until Monday night, but you'd mentioned having to change forms at Blake's school. Which is why he was waiting outside with a McDonald's bag for both you and Blake. 
"Jay!" Blake called out when he saw the man, running to him and giving him a hug. 
"Hey, buddy. I got you breakfast," he told the boy, handing him his McDonald's bag. He stood up, opening the backdoor of his truck to let Blake climb in. You relaxed as he shut the door, letting him take you in his arms. "You feeling okay? Heard it was a rough weekend."
"I'm doing okay. Just figuring out next steps. I know I shouldn't but-" He cut you off. 
"It's okay to make plans, Y/N. I'd be worried if you weren't. Plus, you're stuck with me all day. Food?" You laughed as you took the bag before he helped you in the truck. 
Blake spent the drive in a mix of eating and talking Jay's ear off. It definitely hadn't been a smooth weekend, but Blake seemed to be taking it in strides compared to you. He'd told him about the social worker and the nice doctor at the hospital. 
Dr Charles had spoken to you before you'd left that day, suggesting both you and Blake made appointments. You were more than considering it, already figuring out scheduling with his office. It seemed like a good idea. He’d told you that it didn’t seem like Blake really had any severe lasting effects aside from anxiety -- which he assured was a good thing, that it could have been much worse. It still made you feel like a horrible parent. Dr Charles had really stressed the importance of you coming to see him, though. With your anxiety and panic attacks, the lasting physical trauma as well as the emotional. You weren’t going to deny that you were struggling even after just a few days after leaving Jason. 
“Can you come in with me?” you asked Jay softly as he neared the school. His response was just reaching over and taking your hand in his own, giving you that silent confirmation that he wasn’t going anywhere. You allowed some of the tension to drop out of your shoulders. Already, doing this was going to be a bit easier with Jay next to you. 
“You ready, buddy?” Jay asked your son, looking at Blake in the rearview mirror as soon as the truck was in park 
“Yeah!” he agreed with a smile, unbuckling his seatbelt. The three of you got out of the car, Jay’s hand brushing yours as you walked. You decided to take a move, albeit a small one, linking your pinky with his. As much as you wanted to see his reaction, you kept looking ahead. If you were being honest, you were scared. But you knew that was okay, feeling his pinky tighten just enough to keep a hold.
The two of you walked Blake to his classroom before going to the front office. 
“Hello, Mrs Franklin,” Patricia the office assistant greeted with a smile. “And who do you have with you today?”
“I’m actually here to change Blake’s emergency contact paperwork. Jason and I are splitting,” you informed her. Jay’s hand came to rest on your lower back. “I need to take Jason off the paperwork, as well as remove him as an authorized guardian to take Blake off school property. And I need to add Jay here in his place.”
“Okay, let me grab that paperwork,” she agreed, getting up and walking to the filing cabinet. You were startled when Jay leaned in, mouth next to your ear. 
“What are you doing?” he whispered, hand still resting on your back. 
“You’re his father, Jay,” you reminded him. “And I know we haven’t talked about how much you want to be involved, but you have as much of the right to be on that paperwork as I do. I wasn’t planning on doing it today, just taking Jason off. But...you were here.” You looked up at him, a soft smile on your lips as he nodded in agreement. 
“The two of you just need to fill out this paperwork,” Patricia told the two of you, handing over a clipboard. 
“I should let you know…” But Jay didn’t let you get it out before he grabbed it from Patricia, looking between you and the paperwork. “I was going to tell you before you grabbed the paperwork,” you sighed. 
“You could have told me days ago that his name is Blake Halstead,” he reminded you. It was true, but you were already so scared he was going to run. 
“Can we just...do this paperwork?” He nodded, focusing his attention on the paperwork. There really wasn’t anything for you to fill out besides your agreement signature. 
“Here you go,” Jay told Patricia, handing her the clipboard. “Could you also do us a favor?” The older woman nodded in agreement. “If Jason shows up here at all, give me a call.” He handed her his card, getting a nod as she slid it in Blake’s file. The two of you walked out of the school, and you couldn’t help but be a bit tense. You weren’t sure how upset Jay was about the revelation. Over the past three years, you’d learned to think that every argument, every disagreement, every silent treatment, every screaming match would turn nuclear. It was ingrained in your head that violence could happen at the drop of a hat. 
-----
Things seemed to be going well. The two of you had gotten married less than a month ago; the honeymoon phase of your relationship was still in full effect. Jason seemed to love Blake like he was his own. That was all you could ever ask for, hope for. And he treated you like you were his world. 
“What’s this?” he asked you one night as you were laid out on the couch, Blake having already gone to bed. You were engrossed in a book, so you didn’t look up. “I asked you, what is this?” he asked again, grabbing your book and holding up a cocktail napkin. 
“Some guy slipped me his number last week. I was gonna throw it away when I did laundry tomorrow,” you answered as you sat up, not sure why he was making a big deal out of it. 
“Did you call him?” Jason then followed up with. There was no way he was getting jealous was there? He knew you wouldn’t cheat on him, right?
“Of course not, Jason. I love you. Nobody else,” you assured him, standing up and cupping his cheek. He backed up, balling up the napkin and tossing it on the floor. “Why are you making this such a big deal?”
“You’re the one with some random guy’s phone number!” he corrected. All you saw in his eyes was rage before you felt the sting on your cheek, tears coming to your eyes. You were too shocked to do anything besides look at the floor where your eyes landed after the impact. If only you’d known then that it was only going to be the first time, not even close to the last. 
-----
“You do this thing where you space out,” Jay mentioned, rousing you again, You hadn’t realized you’d leaned your head on the window, staring out at the traffic, too lost in your own thoughts. “Talk to me, please?”
“Dr Charles said the same thing the other day,” you mumbled, continuing to watch the cars go by as he drove. You weren’t sure where you were at or where you were going. The only thing you did know was that you were safe as long as Jay was there. “He said he thinks it’s me disassociating as a coping mechanism.”
“Do you remember when we first met, how much of a mess I was?” You nodded, feeling his hand on yours. You weren’t sure if he was trying to get more of your attention or if it was just a comforting thing for him. He’d always been a touchy kind of guy. “Disassociating is very common in PTSD.”
“I don’t have PTSD, Jay,” you corrected, glancing over at him, seeing him perplexed. You weren’t sure why though, eyes back out the window. “You have a reason to have PTSD, a war you fought in. I don’t.”
“It’s not called Shell Shock anymore for a reason, Y/N. Anybody can get PTSD. You lived -- more or less -- in a hostage situation for the past three years. I may not know exactly what you went through, or those feelings. But I am here for you. I understand the anxiety and the triggers and the flashbacks. Even if you aren’t experiencing them, or if you don’t realize you are. You have somebody here who understands.” You squeezed his hand, the neighborhood beginning to look very familiar. 
“Why are we here?” you asked, breath catching in your throat. 
Your heart started pounding in your chest. You couldn’t breathe. Why couldn’t you breathe? You didn’t feel the truck stop, breaths shallow and fast as you gripped his hand like a vise. You weren’t supposed to be here. Jay had promised...You never had to go back. Never. That’s why you left. Thoughts swirled in your head, not able to pick out just one. You felt his hands on you, felt him turn your head to look at him. 
“Y/N, look at me,” he instructed, but it sounded like you were underwater, blood rushing in your ears. “Look at me. Focus on me.” His hands cupped your cheeks, pulling you back just enough to focus. Not enough to calm down though. “He’s not here. My team has made sure of it.” 
You tried listening, but all you could see was Jason. He was going to be inside. You knew it. He was going to be inside, and he was going to kill you.
“Do you trust me?” Jay then asked. That was a loaded question. Of course you trusted him. It was Jason you didn’t trust. You just nodded, not trusting your voice. “We’re going to go inside. You’re going to pack whatever you need or want to take. And then we’re going to go back to the apartment. Ruzek and Kim are tailing Jason right now. They’ll let me know if he heads this way. You’re safe. I promise. Just breathe with me. You’re safe.” 
He began doing a deep breathing exercise which you mimicked the best you could, finally feeling like your chest wasn’t collapsing in on itself. Your heart was still racing. You were still terrified. But Jay knew what he was talking about. Right? The two of you sat there, staring at each other, breathing for another five minutes before he led you inside. 
-----
“Jay,” you mumbled as you felt him roughly roll onto his side. 
The two of you had been sharing a bed for a month. It wasn’t the first time he’d woken you up, but it was the first time he didn’t wake himself up. His leg brushed against yours as you heard him mumble something before letting out a choked out sob.
You sat up, rubbing the sleep from your eyes. The two of you had gone to bed early for once, falling asleep just holding each other. He’d had a rough day, but didn’t want to talk about it. You couldn’t blame him though. From what little he’d told you, it was obvious that whatever had happened while he was in Afghanistan was...horrible. He’d bunched the pillow up, holding onto it. You could see a look of discomfort on his face. Or maybe it was fear. It was hard to tell while he was asleep. 
“Jay,” you said again, a little more forcefully as your hand came down on his shoulder. 
His eyes shot open. It was easy to tell he didn’t know he was safe, that he was in your apartment as he reached out to grab your wrist. You quickly pulled away though. 
“Jay!” He blinked a few times, tears on his cheeks that you didn’t recognize sooner. “You’re okay,” you assured him as he ran a hand across his face. “Want to talk about it?”
“Not really,” he answered as he got up, stretching out his shoulders. You’d seen his scars, knew that he’d been through a lot. He paced the bedroom, but didn’t venture further before joining you in bed again. He leaned into you, your arm draping over his shoulders. 
“I know we really don’t know each other that well,” you told him softly, kissing the top of his head. “But I do care about you. And if you ever want to talk about it, I’m here to listen.”
-----
You thought since you’d gone to Jay, that you would never be back here. But that was a pipe-dream, Jay being the one to drag you back. Your hands were shaking as you unlocked the front door. There was glass shattered on the floor, crunching under your shoes as you walked. 
“I don’t want to take much, Jay,” you told him softly, trying to keep it together. “Some of my clothes. Some of Blake’s. His favorite toys. Pictures…” You trailed off as you stared at the dent in the wall in the living room. It felt like you were walking back into your own personal Hell. You couldn’t keep the images from flashing in your mind. Every time he hit you. Every time your blood stained the floor, down on your hands and knees trying to get the stain out before Blake could see. Jay’s hand came down lightly on your lower back, grounding you again. 
“You’re safe,” he reassured as you walked into your bedroom, grabbing the suitcase out of the closet. You didn’t pack much, just the essentials. Your favorites. Everything else could be replaced. 
“Blake...His baby book is on the top shelf in the closet. There’s also...There’s a shoebox of pictures. Could you…?” Jay nodded, moving that way as you kept packing, filling just the one suitcase. Honestly, you just wanted a fresh start. 
You put the suitcase in the hallway, moving to Blake’s room. Jay left the box and book on top of your suitcase, following you. He didn’t say anything. He didn’t have to. Just having him there was more than you could ask for. There was a second suitcase in the hall closet that you grabbed, taking it with you. You tried to pack as many clothes and toys as you could, focusing mostly on his favorite stuff. Even though you knew it could be replaced, he was nine. Things didn’t make as much sense to him. 
“We need to be leaving soon,” Jay said as you were finishing up. You couldn’t help but chew on your bottom lip, nodding in agreement. Jay grabbed the suitcases as you grabbed the pictures. 
“Wait,” you told him. You walked back into the dining room, slipping your wedding ring off and putting it on the table before following Jay out to the truck. Once you were situated, on the way back to the apartment, you looked at him. “Thank you.”
“It was Hailey’s idea. I was just the personal bodyguard.” That got you to laugh. “I missed your laugh. Your smile,” he admitted a little softer, turning his attention back to the road. 
“You know, we really haven’t just talked,” you mentioned. “When we get back, can we just talk? Catch up? Like old friends?”
“Of course.”
-----
The two of you were on the couch, your feet propped up on his lap as he flipped through Blake’s baby book. You’d been home for a few hours, still having a ways to go until Blake needed to be picked up. It was only natural that the conversation gravitated towards your son. 
“He was a cute baby,” Jay said, enamored by the pictures. “He’s still a cute kid, but…”
“But you missed out on him being a baby. You’re allowed to be upset,” you reminded him with a sigh, knowing you were the reason he missed out. “I want to tell Blake today.”
“Tell him? That I’m his dad?” Jay asked, apparently needing further explanation as to what you were saying. 
“Yes, Jay. That you’re his dad. Just...with everything with Jason. And with you wanting to be in his life. I don’t need him any more confused than he needs to be. I don’t want him thinking that you’re just one of his Mom’s friends who spends time with him. He deserves to know you. And you deserve to know your son,” you explained. 
This was the chance for Blake to have at least one stable parent in his life. Even if it wasn’t you. And that was okay, because you could do this for him. All you ever wanted was to be the best mom you could be. Jay nodded in agreement, putting the book to the side before looking at you with a serious look.
“I don’t like that look, Jay,” you told him, getting him to crack a smile which made you feel better. 
“I want to talk about what happened in the truck.” You just shook your head, sitting up and planting your feet on the ground. “It’s hard. I know. But you really need to talk about these things.”
“Like how you talked about it?”
-----
Jay seemed to be enjoying your company. But it seemed like he enjoyed working as the bouncer even more. A group of guys that you recognized as semi-regulars had been getting rowdy. You’d told them to either cool it or to leave, which they did neither. Why would they? They were having a good time. 
“Jay, can you handle them please?” you asked, pinching the bridge of your nose and squeezing your eyes shut for a moment before going back to serving the patrons who weren’t hammered. He nodded, heading towards the group. You could vaguely make out what he was saying, not paying any attention. Until glass broke and fists were flying. 
“Think you’re such a tough guy, huh?” one of the larger men spat at Jay, throwing another punch. You grabbed the phone, calling 911 as you yelled at them to get out of your bar. He and Jay continued to scuffle until the cops got there, putting them both in cuffs. 
“Hey, no!” you told them, walking over before they had the chance to get Jay out to the patrol car. “This one’s my bouncer. He didn’t do anything wrong?” The cop asked a few questions before undoing Jay’s cuffs. 
You let your bartender continue the night as you helped Jay upstairs, the man wincing with each step. You could see the beginnings of a black eye, an obvious busted lip and a cut along his cheekbone and eyebrow. What worried you was how he protectively crossed his arm over his chest, not sure if it was his arm bothering him or his ribs. 
“What were you thinking, Jay?” you asked as you sat him down on the couch, going to get the first aid kit. When you came back in, he’d lit a cigarette. “You can have one later.” He grumbled but let you help him out of his shirt. 
“I could have taken him,” he assured, but you just shook your head as you cleaned up his cuts, trying to figure out if he needed stitches or not. 
“He was kicking your ass, babe. I kinda like you in one piece.”
-----
“I’m the first to admit that I didn’t handle my PTSD very well back then. But I was just trying to get a handle on it. I wished I had somebody there who understood what I went through, who understood what it was like to struggle like I was. I love you, but back then…” He shook his head. “Back then, you were my distraction from it all. You let me just push it down. And in the end, I ended up breaking. I don’t want you to get to that point. So please? Talk to me?” You knew his intentions were good. 
“I wasn’t expecting you to take me there today, Jay. You’d promised me that I never had to go back, and then you just threw it on me,” you admitted. “And I was terrified. It didn’t matter how much you tried telling me that he wasn’t there, I was sure he was.”
“I’m sorry. I should have told you before-hand, made sure you were okay with the plan. But we had a small window of opportunity today.” You nodded.
“All those times you catch me disassociating...I’m lost in memories. They were always my escape with Jason, just retreating into my own mind. The good. The bad…I don’t want to say it helps me process, because I’m not. It…”
“I get it,” he assured, cutting you off, ensuring you knew you didn’t have to explain. “In Afghanistan...and afterward, I did the same thing. I’d think of my brother, my mom, my friends. I’d think of Chicago. Home. Because then my mind was focusing on something else. Anything else.” 
“I’m broken, Jay,” you admitted, not sure if you had it in you to cry anymore. You’d done so much crying over the past three days, not sure if you had any tears left. “He broke me.” Jay didn’t say anything, pulling you to his chest as you clutched his shirt. 
“You’re not broken,” he whispered, kissing the top of your head as he leaned back on the couch, bringing you with him. 
“No. I am,” you insisted, feeling his hands rub along your back gently. “Nobody will...Nobody will see me the same way. Nobody will love me like this.”
“You’re not broken,” he told you again, holding you a little tighter. “You’re the same amazing person I met ten years ago. You’re a little lost and scared. But you are far from broken.” The two of you sat in silence a little longer before he spoke again. “I still love you.”
