bob’s shirt
pairing: Bob Floyd x reader
warnings: none
summary: When you wear Bob’s shirt to The Hard Deck, your secret relationship is found out. Reader’s callsign is Fox.
Tumblr media
You and Bob had been secretly dating for four months. You weren’t sure why it was still a secret and neither was Bob, but neither of you was willing to admit to the other that you wanted to tell people. Phoenix knew, because she was tenacious in her interrogations.
“Why are you in such a good mood today?” Phoenix asked.
“I’m normally in a good mood,” Bob said.
“Yeah, but not this good. You keep smiling at nothing.” Bob glanced over at you across the lecture hall. Phoenix followed his eyeline. “Oh my god,” she gasped.
“What?” Bob muttered, his eyes still on you.
“You and Fox finally hooked up, didn’t you?” Phoenix whispered. Bob’s neck snapped to look over at her in shock.
“What? No!” He exclaimed in a whisper. “I mean we have but—we aren’t—Fox and I—” He stuttered. Phoenix let a grin spread across her face.
“It wasn’t just a hookup, was it?” She asked. Bob blushed. He looked at you and then back at Phoenix.
“We’ve been dating for three months. It’s our anniversary,” he admitted. Phoenix smiled at Bob. She had never seen him look so happy. “Don’t tell anyone, please.”
“Secret’s safe with me, Bob,” she assured him.
That’s how you ended up taking two cars to The Hard Deck even though the both of you had left from Bob’s place and intended to return there when the night was done. When you arrived Bob was quick to order your drinks while you went to sit with the others.
“Is that Bob’s shirt, Fox?” Hangman asked with a grin as you sat down at the table nearest the piano. You looked down and realized you were in Bob’s University of Montana shirt. Your cheeks burned with embarrassment as you struggled to think of a response. Rooster and Fanboy had caught wind of the conversation and were now looking in your direction.
“No,” you lied.
“Really? Didn’t you go to school in California?” Fanboy asked, smirking as he lifted his beer to his lips.
“I don’t know where it’s from,” you said, trying to shut down the conversation.
“I swear I’ve seen Bob in a shirt like that before,” Rooster piped in.
“Maybe he has one like it,” you said. Bob walked up to sit beside you, handing you your drink.
“Bob! Don’t you have a shirt like the one Fox is wearing?” Hangman smirked as he pointed to your shirt. Bob’s eyes met yours and he saw the embarrassment painting your face. The two of you had clearly been found out.
“Erm…I don’t think so,” he said, a blush rising across his cheeks.
“You went to the University of Montana, though, didn’t you?” Rooster pushed.
“Ye—yeah,” Bob stuttered.
“Do you know anyone else who went to the University of Montana, Fox?” Hangman questioned.
“I don’t know. I think I got this at a thrift store,” you lied.
“Why would you pick that out?” Fanboy teased you.
“It was probably cheap,” you tried.
“Everything at thrift stores is cheap,” Hangman pointed out. You were totally flustered and unsure what to say.
“I don’t—It was—I think—”
“We’ve been dating for four months,” Bob interrupted. It was very out of character for him to be so bold, but he had been having trouble watching your nerves build while you were talking to Hangman. Your head snapped to look at him, surprised by his confession.
“Four months?” Coyote asked in shock.
“I told you,” Phoenix said snappily. “You owe me ten bucks.”
“You said you wouldn’t tell anyone!” Bob exclaimed.
“It doesn’t matter, Bob. We could all tell,” Fanboy said.
“How?” You asked.
“You hold hands every time you leave base,” Payback said.
“Yeah, but not till we get to the parking lot,” Bob countered.
“Yeah, cause we can’t see in the parking lot,” Fanboy teased.
“I told you that we shouldn’t,” you chided Bob. He shrugged.
“Couldn’t wait any longer,” he said.
“For a stealth pilot, you’re pretty bad at being undercover,” Hangman joked. Bob just smiled. The conversation moved away from you and Bob and everyone was animatedly discussing the base’s latest arrival of students. Bob scooted his chair closer to yours and wrapped his arm around your shoulders, pulling you into his body and kissing your forehead. You smiled and leaned into him. It was nice to feel like the two of you could really be together in front of everyone.
You left The Hard Deck hand in hand. Bob walked you to your car. He stopped you as you arrived at your door.
“Are you mad at me?”
“Mad at you? Why would I be mad at you?” You asked.
“I told everyone about us,” Bob said.
“It was pretty clear that they already knew,” you replied.
“That’s not the same as telling them though,” Bob said. You smiled softly at his thoughtfulness.
“I’m glad they know, Bobby,” you assured him. “We can be together everywhere now.” Bob smiled softly. There was a small pause. You could tell by looking at Bob that something was wrong and you were about to ask him when he blurted out:
“I love you.” The look on Bob’s face when he told you was one of pure admiration. He hadn’t been planning on telling you he loved you, but it had become impossible for him to hold it in any longer.
“I love you too, Robby,” you said with a smile.
“Really?” He asked in disbelief. You chuckled.
“Really. It’s hard not to fall in love with a sweet mid-western boy who kisses you like you’re gonna die,” you said. Bob laughed.
“If you weren’t so pretty, I wouldn’t have to kiss you so much,” he teased.
“Guess it’s a good thing I’m pretty then,” you said. Bob smiled. He grabbed your waist and pulled you in for a sweet kiss, his lips warm against yours. You leaned forward to give him one last peck when you pulled apart.
“Go get in your car. I’ll meet you at home,” you said.
“Home?” Bob asked with a smile. You blushed as you realized your mistake, but you decided not to retreat.
“Yeah. Home.”

Joey B Imagines: Caught Up In You
Tumblr media
————————————————————————-
Summary: You and the twins surprise Joe during his last hour at the soup kitchen.
Warnings: Fluff.
Pairing: Joe Burrow x reader
Imagine Univserse: Into the Mystic
————————————————————————-
March 3rd, 2024
“Hey, y/n! Most of the photographers and workers are gone, but Joe surprisingly wanted to stay a little longer. Do you want to surprise him and come down with the twins?” - Robin
Robin had just called me. Joe had already been gone for a few hours, and I was just chilling at home.
“Oh, I’d love to! I'll be there in a few!” - you
“Great! I'll see you in a few sweetie!” - Robin
——
After I got the boys out of the car, I held onto both of their hands as we walked up to the building.
Shortly after our phone call, Robin messaged me and said to come in through the back door since it went straight into the kitchen where Joe would be.
“Dada!!” - Tyson
“You excited to see Dada?” - you smiled
Tyson’s love for his dad never failed to make my heart flutter. I was so lucky to have such an amazing man like Joe be the father to my kids.
“Can you knock on the door for me?” - you
Miles nodded his little head before using his free hand to hit the door with all his might, though it barely made a sound.
“Ty, how about you help him?” - you
Tyson’s knock was just slightly louder, so eventually, I knocked too.
When the door opened and Jimmy was revealed, the boys cheered, thinking their knocks were loud enough.
“What are you guys doing here?” - Jimmy
He smiled as he gave me a side hug, bending down to pick Miles up after.
“Dada!!” - Tyson
“Oh, I see! Let's go find Daddy.” - Jimmy
Jimmy grabbed Tyson’s hand and walked into the kitchen. I trailed behind after shutting the door back.
The place was pretty much empty, other than Robin talking to one of the older ladies who worked there.
“Look who's here! You look gorgeous as always, the pregnancy glow is on point.” - Robin smiled
“Awww, thank you! I threw a pair of baggy ripped jeans in that I knew still fit and took one of Joe’s shirts.” - you smiled
“Well, you look amazing. Joe’s in one of the other kitchens somewhere.” - Robin
Before I could even go find him, Joe strode into the room with Tyson on his hip and a big smile on his face.
“What are you doing here?” - Joe grinned
“Came to see you!” - you
Joe swiftly leaned down for a quick kiss, the smile never leaving his face.
“You look gorgeous.” - Joe
“That's what I said!” - Robin
Tyson laid his head on Joe’s shoulder, and Joe gently laid his head against his for a few seconds.
“Momma pretty.” - Tyson
“Your momma is very pretty.” - Joe
“Awww.” - Robin
I watched Joe subtly roll his eyes, and I smacked him on the arm in response.
“Ow!” - Joe
“Oh, toughen up!” - you laughed
Tyson started wiggling in Joe’s grasp, so he sat him down. Now that his arms were free, Joe moved closer to me and wrapped his arm around my waist.
“How long have you two been together?”
The lady who had been talking to Robin had a smile on her face as she watched me and Joe.
“A little over nine years.” - Joe smiled
“We started dating in high school. I was a junior and Joe was a senior. We've been together ever since.” - you
“Wow! That's amazing! You guys seem so in love.”
“We are.” - Joe
There was a twinkle in his eye when I made eye contact with Joe, and he leaned down to peck my forehead.
“I didn't even know you were married, Mr. Burrow, let alone a father.”
“I keep my family private, but if you follow y/n on TikTok you can see more of my life outside of football.” - Joe
“Oh really? What kind of things do you post?”
“I prank Joe a lot, but I've done some day routines and other trends.” - you
“What kind of pranks?”
“Don’t even get her started.” - Joe chuckled while rolling his eyes
I was about to make a snarky comment in response to his sassiness, but before I could, Miles and Tyson came running into the room.
They each had mini aprons on that matched Joe’s, and Miles handed me one for myself.
“Thanks, Bubba.” - you smile
“Here, lemme help you, Mama.” - Joe
Joe took that apron from my hand and put it over my head, he went behind me and tied the strings around my waist. With a big hand pressed to the small of my back, Joe leaned forward to see my face as he asked a question.
“Not too tight is it? Around your belly?” - Joe
“It's perfect, thank you, baby.” - you
“Of course.” - Joe
He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to my neck, I felt my cheeks heat up so I promptly shoved Joe’s chest.
“Stop that.” - you whispered
“You know you love it.” - Joe smiled
“At home, I love it, not right now.” - you
“Keep that same opinion for when we get home later.” - Joe
I once again shoved his chest, but Jos only pulled me against him.
This boy will surely be the death of me.
——
I don't know how it happened, but currently, Joe was trying to tie Tyson up in his apron.
Joe had the strings around his waist tied as tight as he could get them, and sat Tyson against his chest to where his legs stuck out at either side.
“Baby, help!” - Joe laughed
“What do you want me to do?!” - you chuckled
“Tie the strings around my neck, please!” - Joe
I did as he said and laughed at the sight of Ty strapped to Joe’s chest like a kangaroo.
“This is pretty sturdy.” - Joe
He did various things to test it out, like squatting, doing a jumping jack, and doing random things that had Tyson giggling the entire time.
His laugh only made everyone else laugh, including Joe, who seemed to be having more fun than Tyson.
“Okay, that's enough, Joe. You're making me nervous.” - you
Joe halted his movements and nodded his head, doing just as I said because I had him wrapped around my finger.
I helped Tyson get down, but he wouldn't leave Joe’s side. That big, calloused hand coming down to rub over his little back.
Not that Tyson or Miles were super tiny. They were both in the 90th percentile for height at their age, which is, I guess, what you sign up for when you have babies with a man who’s 6’4.
“Miles’s turn!” - Joe
“No!!” - Miles
Miles went to hide behind my legs, which made everyone laugh. I reached down to play with his hair to comfort him.
“Daddy’s joking, bubs.” - you laughed
“No, he's not!” - Joe
Joe lept forward and scooped Miles up, who was screeching those little toddler noises, and threw him up in the air before catching him.
Miles started giggling when Joe threw him up again, blowing raspberries in his neck before bringing him close to his chest. He was the less adventurous twin, but he always had fun with Joe nonetheless.
“Do you guys have plans tomorrow?” - Robin
“I don't think so.” - you
Joe shook his head, no, so Robin continued.
“How about we take the boys tonight, you guys can come over tomorrow and then take them home tomorrow evening.” - Robin
I looked over at Joe, who was already looking at me, and we both shrugged.
“Fine with me.” - Joe
“Me too.” - you
Shortly after that, Joe helped switch the car seats into his parent's car. He was saying bye when he looked over and saw me about to open my door.
“Bye guy- WAIT!” - Joe
In the corner of my eye, I saw Joe jogging toward me so I stopped what I was doing.
“What? Something wrong?” - you
“I have to open your door. When I gave you that promise ring I promised you that as long as I'm with you, you won't have to open a door.” - Joe
“Joe. I can open my door. Perfectly capable of doing it for myself, you could've continued talking to your parents.” - you
“Nope.” - Joe
With that, he walked away and over to the driver's side of the car. I slid in and buckled up just as he was sitting down.
“I can't believe you drove here.” - Joe sighed
“I can drive, Joe!” - you
“You make me nervous driving while you're pregnant!” - Joe
“Babe, you need to calm down. Just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I can't do anything for myself. We had this conversation many times when I was pregnant with the twins, so you should know this by now.” - you
“I know… I just feel like I have to. You're the one who has to go through the symptoms of pregnancy, weight gain, sickness, and childbirth. I just feel bad that I can’t do anything to contribute.” - Joe
Joe slumped over and stared out the windshield, picking at his fingernails in the process.
I reached one of my hands over and separated his hands in an attempt to stop his nervous fidgeting. The action caused Joe to look up at me.
“You do plenty. I wouldn't be able to get through everything you listed without you. The weight gain, you're always there to hype me up when I'm feeling self-conscious. The sickness, I haven't had much of it, but you're always there to hold my hair and rub my back. The birth part, though I know you were just as nervous as me, you were my biggest cheerleader. I'm not going through any of this alone, Joe, we're a team.” - you
“You should be a motivational speaker… or the person that writes Hallmark cards.” - Joe smiled
“Give me a kiss, goofball.” - you chuckled
Joe leaned forward and gave me a very thorough kiss, his hand cupping my face as one of mine rubbed his chest.
“I love you in that apron, by the way.” - you mumbled against his slick lips
“Noted.” - Joe groaned before reconnecting your lips

imagine having an argument with jude and giving him attitude all day but he’s just so patient and so during your night routine while doing skin care or smth he’s all “darling im so sorry…” blah blah blah but then lectures you in a loving way to not ignore him and instead talk your feelings out 💋
okay but why would this be me?? i will hold onto that grudge until i feel time is right 😔🤞🏻this is slightly longer, and not proofread!! but like always hope you enjoy😘
your hands are interlocked together. well… kinda. his is fully locked with yours, fingers wrapped on your knuckles as your hand is just in place and fingers spread out. he’d been begging for your attention. a small smile, tiny meep, or even a small nudge from you. but you refused to even look at him. saving whatever you had to say in you to further cause tension in the car.
“y/n?”
“don’t talk to me. you might even forget what i’ll say the second i’m done speaking…”
“i want to talk it out! i wanna communicate that with you!”
“yet you didn’t care when i did… i don’t care jude!”
you forgot what you were even arguing about. it was just now you being petty and paying back like all those times he had done to you. clearly it was affecting him as he started to send you text messages to get a reaction. once again he was met with nothing. jude frowning and looking away like you were.
he knew if he removed his hand from yours he maybe would’ve gotten something at of you, but he knew how close and attached you were so jude retreated the idea, not wanting to face an even more upset and angry y/n. if there was jude one thing hated was seeing you mad, sad, upset, anything, because of him. knowing he was the reason he hated it.
of course jude hadn’t forgot what you were arguing about. you had insisted and told him repeatedly about the brunch date you had in morning with some other friends, to take out the trash out before the next day so it wouldn’t pile up, and to simply put away the clothes he had laying around.
jude knew it was to forget about the planned brunch date, but the other stuff he found slightly immature, even though he wouldn’t ever admit that to you. it obviously wasn’t okay to you, and the tone of voice he also spoke didn’t sit right with him. he was under a lot of pressure but if he had done what he was asked at first he wouldn’t be in the position.
jude got out quickly, opening the door for you as you stepped out and walked into the house. jude was about to pay the driver when he told him you had done so already. jude thanked him, rolling his eyes once he saw the front door open and you taking your boots off and heading upstairs.
“y/n? can we talk now?” he asked sighing and covering his face with his hand. “i don’t know? are you going to remember what i’ll have to say? or is it gonna be forgotten like our plans from today? the chores i laid for you? hmm, i vote yes! so no. i don’t want to talk to you,” you say sarcastic, crossing your arms and walked off, ignoring the plead from jude.
jude huffed in his place, becoming frustrated with your attitude and side remarks. it was clear you weren’t going to let it go. so now he was faced with also ignoring you cause he was mad or let you have you’d raided space and talk it out later.
jude being the inpatient and clingy boyfriend he was, gave it an hour before going into the living room where you scrolled on your phone. he couldn’t but you did, so you got up and went to the kitchen, grabbing a snack and sitting in the island. jude of course threw his hands in the air frustrated. you had to hold back the laugh paying attention to the get ready with me video on your phone.
later on when you went upstairs he followed up a few minutes after, seeing you snuggled up in your soft blanket reading a book with your glasses on. he approached you, but you then got up and walked off again on him, going downstairs and laid on the couch. jude clenched his jaw and laughed loudly. he had enough, all he wanted was to apologize and make it up to you.
he watched from afar, as your eyes kept shutting and opened again, many time before yawning and walking up the stairs again. jude had taken you silent treatment and showered, got ready for bed. not because he want to pay you back, but to finally talk with you. one thing you both agreed on was never going to sleep when either one was upset.
you had heard jude come up after setting the alarm system and ensuring everything was cleaned, locked, and lights turned off. you placed your book back on the shelf, your hair going into a messy updo as jude came to the door, bring to waters and your cup of tea. your heart warmed up, feeling bad for ignoring him the entire night when it was the only night together.
in all honesty you felt like he deserved it. it got to the point where he was clearly forgetting about you and what you said around him, feeling like a presence rather than his actual girlfriend. you didn’t want to seem like a bother but he was making you feel like one, and you hated it more than anything.
jude sat on the bathroom countertop, biting his nails as he watched you change out from your day clothes into your pjs. part of him felt like he won when you grabbed his shirt and put it on, the quickly remembered you were still mad at him. you looked down the entire time, a sad flint in your eyes as you started to take your makeup off.
he watched you rub and rub the cotton pad along your face, the water running as you used your nightly cleanser, the jiggle of the towel rack to pat your face dry. “i refuse to go to sleep knowing you’re still mad at me…” jude said making you stop brush your teeth and look up in the mirror. “okay then. all forgiven…” you shrugged, spitting out the excess hearing jude groan.
“please y/n! i’m trying to talk here. i’m being serious when i say i refuse to get on our bed, and you not even spanking a glance at me,” he said upset, getting up from the counter and over towering you. you said nothing and finished brushing your teeth.
you grabbed your last step of your skin care routine, looking up and breathing a bit deeper than before, controlling your emotions because you hated crying in front of people. “you really upset me today jude… for the first time ever i was starting to question if you ever paid attention to me or if i was being clingy…” you softly chucked.
jude immediately winced and got soft, going behind you and hugging your waist. the tight hold almost making you break down in tears before you could even speak. “i hate when you do that to me. it’s not the first time but it makes me feel like i’m not even there! i’m just a ghost or unwanted person in my own home!”
“i never ever, want to make you feel like that. especially in our home y/n! i can’t describe how incredibly sorry i am for making you feel that way. i had no idea and it’s absolutely horrible i know i know. i never wanted to make you feel uninvited or like you couldn’t say anything around me,” jude said behind your, his thumbs stroking the material of the shirt.
“i get you have a lot going on, believe me i do, but you have no right to embarrass me like that jude,” you say with eyes closed, jude nodding his head and then turning you around. “i know darling, i know. i can promise you right this second it won’t ever happen again! it was incredibly selfish and overall i hurt the person that means the world to me,” you felt his trembling hands and lips to your forehead.
“please don’t ever make me feel like that. like i have to overthink what i say, wear, think! nothing hurts more in the world then getting ignored by the person you love most,” you spoke softly, voice still laced with a tint of pain. “i understand baby. i promise i do pay attention and i do hear you,” jude spoke.
“did you really or is-”
“y/n please…”
“okay i’m sorry, i swear i’m done!” you giggle, jude bringing you impossibly closer to him. “i want you to talk to me rather than ignore me. i would rather you scream and yell angrily at how mad you are than have you say nothing to me for the whole evening,” jude said making you look up and nod, agreeing with him.
“i kid you not, i was ready to buy you the full bookstore and bring you a serenade to apologize,” he exaggerated making you laugh and look up at him once again. “not knowing how you’re feeling is the worst stress, especially cause of me… so please don’t make me go through that again…”
“don’t give me the reason too and i won’t,” you remind him, pointing your finger in his face to make things clear. jude saluted letting you know he understands and will play from the rules from now on. “okay now kiss me, because i really really really missed you today…”
“it would be my pleasure. i’m going to take you to bed first, show my beautiful girlfriend why she deserves every ounce of my attention…”

My real-life manga moments reimagined with the TWST boys 
Moments in my life that my friends said sounds like a romcom manga premise but with the Twisted Wonderland boys.  genre: fluff, humor note: I refers to me the author and could also be reader's perspective, He/him refers the Twisted Wonderland boy I think matches well with the story (though you’re free to imagine whoever)
I'm going through something like a writing slump where I'm just not satisfied with what I'm writing so I started talking to my friends to de-stress. We started talking about our high school days which is how this came to be. Apparently, I'm just airheaded enough to be a manga protagonist ^_^;
Hopefully I'll be out of my slump soon
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I was our class representative and he was a prefect. We worked together in school a lot and I really respected him. Years after we graduated, he told me he respected how I was a good student and friend. I don’t have the heart to tell him that I broke quite a number of school rules but I was just never caught…
Tumblr media
It was my first week into high school and I was quiet because I knew nobody in school. One day during P.E, I stepped into a hole and injured my foot. I was so embarrassed and I didn’t know what to do as my classmates stood around, worried about me. He, as an upperclassman, saw the commotion and offered to carry me to my classroom (we don’t have a nurse’s office). Even more embarrassed, I declined and decided to walk through my pain to get to class. Later that day, my classmates told me that he was actually a super popular and likable upperclassman and I was really lucky to meet him. 
Tumblr media
I met him at an anime convention. I picked up an artwork he dropped and complimented him you on his choice of anime. He seemed really shy but thanked me. I later saw him again at a panel session and then at a nearby restaurant. We talked a little and even shared contacts though we never contacted each other. We used to see each other every year at the same convention until I had to move away. I always wondered how he is. 
Tumblr media
I was alone at a nearby park waiting for my parents to pick me up from school. I had trouble making friends in my class so I was lonely. One day, I met an upperclassman who was also waiting at the park and she became my first friend. We talked everyday at the school until my parents picked me up. One day, her family picked her up first and I was shocked. He, my classmate whom I never spoke with, were my first friend’s brother. Since then, he and I keep unintentionally seeing each other. 
Tumblr media
We were classmates for years. He was always competitive with me because I always beat him at a lot of things like test scores and school rankings. He joined the same martial arts club I was in and announced that he will surpass my belt grade soon. He also said he will grow taller than me soon since we were the same height then. Our martial arts instructor teased him saying boys always bug the ones they like. I didn’t care but rooted for him anyway. 
He did end up growing taller than me and his grades really improved. A year later, he told me he was moving to another country. Before he left, he told me he liked me…
Tumblr media
We were classmates from beginning to end, nothing else. We always somehow got seated near each other each year. We had the same friends and from what our friends told me, we had the same interests and even taste in music. (I also dated his best friend for a while…). But we never once spoke directly to each other. I thought he didn’t like me and I was okay with that because I didn’t like or dislike him either. 
Years have passed since we graduated, I never knew what happened to him since I never bothered to know. Then one day…he followed me on Instagram
Tumblr media
I was waiting for the bus and so was he. He seemed confused and I thought that maybe he wasn't from around here. Then, he came up to me and with an accent, he asked me if a particular bus had already passed by. I answered no and he seemed relieved then said… 
“Thank you. Also, you have a beautiful voice” 
I was stunned speechless as he just walked back to his previous spot.

II. MEETING BRIE
All Eyes on Me masterlist
Word count: 1.4k
The following day, Twitch made a Tweet about our charity stream, showcasing Brie and I as advocates for LGBTQ+ youth. I was honored, completely taken aback by the influx of positive comments and support. We had done something great and would hopefully inspire others to do the same.
Brie messaged me once she saw it, excited that I was getting the exposure I deserved for being a content creator. I didn't feel as though I deserved the popularity just because I was doing something decent. I just wanted to help people, not become famous from doing good deeds.
I gained thousands of followers overnight, and an overwhelmingly large amount of them found me through Brie despite the shout out from Twitch. At this point, I owed her a lot.
She helped me book a flight and hotel in Los Angeles for the next few days so I had a chance to explore with her before the party. My flight was in a few hours and, naturally being me, I haven't finished packing yet.
"Yeah, no, I really have to go soon. I need to finish packing. I've only put together my toiletries so far." I spoke to Claire via my headset. We were playing a round of Call of Duty Zombies instead of having me pack.
"I can't believe you're going to LA without me. To meet celebrities."
"You don't even live in this country. You'd probably miss the party even if you left right now." I teased her.
"Yeah, well, you still could have invited me."
"I didn't even invite me." I chuckled. "Brie had to convince me to go."
"Oh yeah, sure. I bet she really had to pull some teeth to get you to travel to meet Elizabeth Olsen."
"It took at least five minutes of convincing before I agreed." I tried to defend myself weakly. We both knew it truly didn't take much to get me to go.
"Mhm. Come revive me."
"Alright, but after this, I really need to go."
"Okay, okay, go. But once you get home we're streaming together again. I miss our dynamic."
"People think we're gay and dating."
"We are gay, Y/N."
"But not dating, loser."
"Don't you have something you should be doing?" She laughed and I rolled my eyes.
"You're right, I do. See ya, loser."
I left the game and the party, tossing my controller and headset on the bed before leaning back and sighing. I was stressed as all hell about this trip. I was going to meet Elizabeth fucking Olsen. Or maybe I wasn't and Brie was just fucking with me.
I groaned, sitting up on the bed fully and pushing myself to get up and finish packing. I was only staying for a few days so I didn't need much, but I still managed to pack more than I needed to.
I called an Uber to take me to the airport and I couldn't help but fidget nervously as we drove. What if she was just playing a joke on me? What if this was all an elaborate scheme to make me look and feel stupid?
No. Brie was my friend.
I knew this was just my anxiety talking, trying to make me doubt everything I knew and find the bad where there's actually good.
I took a deep breath and tried to relax. This was going to be an amazing couple of days and my anxiety was not going to ruin it for me.
After thanking the driver, I got out with my suitcase, lugging it behind me as I entered JFK airport. At least I would be able to nap once I got on the plane.
Once I got through security and boarded my flight, I found that it was impossible to nap. My nerves were just through the roof. Brie had messaged me before I got on the plane that she would be waiting for me when we landed and that gave me a little bit of extra comfort. I never really traveled by myself so I was a little nervous to be on my own.
I was lucky enough to get a window seat, probably thanks to Brie, and I spent the whole six hour trip looking out the window. Time flew by when my mind wasn't racing with anxious thoughts.
As promised, Brie was waiting for me when I got off the plane and collected my luggage, although I didn't recognize her until she came up to me. She was wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap to hide her identity, and it worked really well.
"Hey there, Y/N." Her smooth voice startled me and I had to do a double take before realizing it was her.
"Brie?" I asked before smiling, wrapping my arms around her in a big hug.
I wasn't usually a hugger, but it felt like I was seeing an old friend after many years of being apart. She squeezed me back even tighter than I squeezed her and I was momentarily reminded that she was an Avenger, and that she was very strong.
"How was your flight?" She asked as she led me out of LAX.
"It was okay. I mostly just watched the clouds."
"Were the movies that boring?" She joked and I smiled, shaking my head.
"No, I just think a lot. Plus, it's not often I find myself in the sky."
"We'll have to get you out here more often then."
We drove to the hotel, chatting casually about what there was to see and do in California. I was excited to experience everything the state had to offer, but hearing her describe everything was a little overwhelming.
"We're not doing all of that in one visit, are we?" I asked playfully.
"Of course not." She shot me a crooked smile. "The things we don't see and do will give you an excuse to come visit again."
"I just got here and you're already planning my next visit?" I joked and she laughed, nodding.
"Absolutely. I'm glad to have you here. We're gonna have a good time."
"Definitely." I agreed as she parked near the hotel.
She came up to my room with me, helping me drag along my luggage.
"What the hell do you have in here? A dead body?" She groaned as we entered the room.
"Oh, don't be so dramatic." I threw myself back onto the bed, sighing as I sunk into the comfortable mattress. "It's not even that heavy."
"Yeah, sure, and I'm six feet tall."
"Shuddup." I laughed as she dropped down on the bed next to me.
We laid together for a while, relaxing until our bellies growled and we had to order room service. This hotel was pretty fancy as the menu served items in other languages and I could only imagine how much it all cost.
Brie ordered wine and we ate and talked until it was nighttime. It felt good to just be myself with someone who seemed to understand me. She wasn't a typical celebrity. Brie was down to earth and damn near normal for an Oscar winner and an Avenger.
"So tomorrow we're gonna go out to eat at this really great restaurant I was introduced to recently and then we'll go explore downtown. There are some awesome shops you'll definitely want to visit at least once while you're here."
I smiled at her excitement.
"Hopefully I can afford stuff here. Everything seems so expensive."
"Of course you can afford stuff. You're a big Twitch streamer now." She teased.
"No, I'm not big. I'm not even medium."
"Stop selling yourself short!" She smacked my arm and I feigned injury.
"Ow, oh no, I'm crippled now. Oh, the pain." I pretended to writhe on the bed next to her and she raised herself up on her elbows, looking down at me.
"Boy, you're a good actress. Do you need me to kiss the boo-boo better?" She asked with a playfully raised eyebrow.
I smiled up at her and grabbed at my arm dramatically.
"I might need more wine, actually."
"Oh, and then you'll want a kiss?"
"Heh, maybe." I sat up, retrieving my glass from the end table and refilling it with the nearby wine bottle. "You wanna kiss me that badly, huh?" I joked.
"Maybe." She whispered and I turned to look at her, her eyes heavy and clearly glazed over with intoxication.
"You're sloshed, Brie." I laughed, sipping from my glass. "You need to sleep."
She looked at me for a moment before laying back down on the bed, rolling over on her side and sighing.
"You're right. I'm exhausted."
A moment later, she was snoring softly, and I was left wondering if I would've actually kissed her if we had both been sober.

30, for buddie please?
hi anon ❤️ thank you for the prompt! exhaustion got to me so it took me a little while to write it, but I hope you like it!
from the soft prompts: ‘this is my husband/wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/partner etc.’
Eddie never really figured out how to introduce Ana as his girlfriend without feeling awkward. It didn't surprise him at the time, because he'd felt the same about introducing Shannon as his wife, for a long time, at least.
So he'd always assumed that was kind of the norm. That he'd always feel awkward introducing his partner, or that maybe that's how most people feel doing that, even. 
In hindsight, that was a stupid thing to assume, probably.
The point is that when he and Buck start dating - and holy shit, they're actually dating - he expects it to be as awkward as it's always been. Perhaps even more awkward, considering that yes, this is Buck, but he's also never dated a guy before. He's never introduced anyone to his boyfriend before.
(Well, that's not entirely true, but those were all people that already knew Buck. It wasn't so much introducing Buck as it was telling those people that they were dating now.)
And then comes the PTA meeting.
Eddie doesn't particularly like PTA meetings, they are long and boring and half the shit that gets discussed is pretty much trivial. He goes anyway because he cares about his son's education, and it's polite to show his face and interact with the other parents. 
He doesn't expect Buck to see it on the calendar on the fridge, turn to him with a bright but somewhat hesitant smile, and ask: "Can I come with?"
"Yeah, of course," Eddie answers without even having to think about it for too long. It'll be much more fun with Buck by his side. 
The realization that he's going to have to introduce Buck to all these parents - at least the ones that haven't met him before - doesn't cross his mind until they're already getting out of the car in the school parking lot.
It's probably a good thing that it doesn't, or he would’ve been all up in his head about it. As it is, he freezes right there next to the car, watching couples and single parents alike make their way into the school.
"You alright?" Buck's voice sounds, suddenly right next to him. He must have walked around the car while Eddie was lost in thought. Buck's hand slips into his, tangling their fingers together.
"I'm fine, just thinking. C'mon, let's go."
He pulls Buck along to the school entrance, greeting some parents he vaguely recognizes along the way. Once inside, they follow the directions to the gym, and it's only when they're there that Eddie finally pauses. His hand is still wrapped tightly around Buck's, and he has no intention of letting go, but that also means that someone is going to notice.
"Eddie, hi!" someone says, and he turns around too quickly, pulling Buck along and making him stumble a bit. See, there's the awkwardness already. It's Katie's mom, Jennifer, who Eddie has talked to on multiple occasions. He's pretty sure she tried to flirt with him in the beginning, though he isn't sure why she stopped. "I see you've brought someone along this time?"
This is usually where it gets awkward, where Eddie stutters out an introduction and embarrasses himself and his partner in the process.
But this time he follows Jennifer's gaze to look at Buck, and he finds Buck smiling at him, soft and so damn happy, as if there's nowhere he'd rather be than here at this PTA meeting with Eddie, and it's not awkward at all.
"Yeah, this is my boyfriend, Buck," Eddie replies, only taking his eyes off Buck at the end of it, and he pulls Buck a little closer as he smiles at Jennifer. "Figured it wasn't fair that he's only been getting the fun parts of raising a kid now that we finally got our shit together."
He and Jennifer both laugh at the indignant squawk Buck lets out at that, and Eddie only grins wider when he stumbles because of the little shove Buck gives him with his shoulder. It's not as if he's in any danger of falling when they're still holding hands, and as soon as he's stabilized himself again, he's pressed right back along Buck's side.
Buck is grinning, too, when Eddie looks at him, and he allows himself a moment to get lost in his boyfriend's eyes. Turns out that didn't feel awkward at all, it simply felt right.
"Just kidding, we both know you've been helping with the less fun parts all this time, too." He pauses for a moment, then turns back to Jennifer. "Now, Jen, have you heard any good gossip lately?"
Next to him, Buck snorts, and Eddie is going to get teased later for caring about gossip in the first place, but he's pretty sure that his boyfriend listens just as attentively while Jennifer tells them of the rumor she heard about two of the teachers hooking up.

Ok, hear me out! Reader never calls Shuri by her name, she only calls her My Sweet, and it’s been passed down generations. Her mother called her father that, her grandma called her grandmother that, and her grandma’s father called his partner that.
Then her mom hears reader call Shuri sweet thing and is excited . Shuri is confused cause she doesn’t understand, and mom explains “For generations the nickname ‘My Sweet’ has been used only for people we know are our soulmates, our forevers.” And then Shuri ask if Reader think she’s her soulmate and without hesitation she’s like “Don’t think, I know.” And it’s just fluffy feels 🥹
think you could right something like that for me, please? ( sorry it’s so much.)
My Sweet Shuri
Shuri x FEM reader
Tumblr media
Shuri and you have been dating for a year but since you've known each other since you were kids unofficially it was more like seven years she wouldn't agree she thinks it's longer. However you just started getting these really hard feelings they were a lot deeper than the ones you've had all your life the attraction these were something else this was like magnets. You found yourself madly in love with her you hated to admit to something so sappy but it was true you're madly in love you could listen to her talk all day about anything. You were blinded by love honestly and she returned it whenever you'd visit her mother she'd tell you just how much her daughter truly said about you behind your back. You thought it was cute. You even had this little nickname for her instead of saying Shuri ever you called her "My sweet" for everything even when you were irritated or upset with her it was "my sweet Shuri" "my sweet you're yelling" or "my sweet we're not alone." Although she didn't pay much attention to it she loved it in her mind it made it seem as if you two were one of those old couples who'd been together since their grade school days.
You were never truly in Wakanda because you enjoyed helping Nakia so much in Haiti with the kids however that did not stop Shuri from seeing you. Most times she'd surprise you by never telling you when just coming when you know she needs you most. Today however it was your turn to surprise her why? Because the following week from now is the day you asked her out and you knew she would try and visit you so you went a week ahead to surprise her before she could come to you. Queen mother of course knew ahead of time you had been on call with her when you started packing telling her just how much you couldn't wait to see them both. "Queen I miss her and you of course and the cooking you cook so well hopefully I'll be able to take some of that off your hands this week." You had said as you looked for just the right dress to wear "no this week is your week you two should be worried about each other." Queen Ramonda is your number one supporter she always has been for both you and Shuri even since you were kids if Shuri enjoyed something she would make sure Shuri had everything that had to do with that topic the same thing with you. She is like a second mother to yours however does not know how to act she's always so nervous around them both even though you've told her millions of times they act normal.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Queen mother knew of your arrival and so did the Dora Milaje and border tribe the news traveled like a fire on dry grass. You visited your mother first helped her clean and cook before making it to the palace you were terrible at it but you snuck into the throne room of course not without the Dora Milaje wondering what you could possibly be doing. Your dress in your hands trying to keep it off the floor when you enter the throne room where Queen Ramonda is looking over the beautiful Wakanda "Queen I made it" you said softly as you approached her and let you dress fall to the floor it clings on your body loosely even though it's made to look skin tight. "I heard your travels were safe of course?" You nod "as always I just couldn't wait to get here and see all of you I've missed home" she smiles and pulls you in a tight hug "I've missed you and my sweet Shuri" you say pulling away gently her eyes kind of widen when you use the words "my sweet" in front of Shuri's name but she relaxes and says nothing so you think nothing of it.
"Do you know where she is? You ask softly she smiles down at you and claps her hands in front of you "where do you think?" You shake your head and laugh "if she's in that lab I'll personally drag her out myself" you mumble the queen chuckles "then you best get to dragging" you smile and hug the queen once more "it was lovely seeing you my queen" she nods in agreement as you leave the room and carefully walk to the lab by the time you make it though you're heels iare in one hand and the end of your dress in the other. One thing about the palace you had a love hate relationship with was no matter how many elevators you took in the damn place you'd still be tired. You hear Griot alerting Shuri of your presence and you can hear the feet quickly pattering up the stairs. You can see her smile in your mind before you even see her and when you do she picks you up and kisses all over your face "my love" she smiles "my sweet" you say calmly pressing gentle kisses on each part of her face. "You're so early I was going to come and see you" you drop your heels and wrap your arms around her neck "I got tired of Haiti I missed you I missed my family so I came early plus I wanted to beat you to the chance. Which I did" you laugh as she puts you down "you look absolutely amazing as always gone head give me a little spin" you spin around and she nods in approval "oh fuck yeah" you smack her lips "watch your mouth before I kiss it-" you press a kiss to her lips "until it's clean" she laughs and looks you up and down with a cocked brow "when did that become a thing?" You shrug "I don't know I just made it up" she laughs and you smile at her just so in love with everything about her.
"My mother had a conversation with me before you arrived" she grabs your heels and wraps her arm around your waist as you two walk into the lab "did she?" She nods "mhm she explained to me this whole "my sweet" nickname you have for me" you nod "and what did she say it meant?" When you two reach the lab tables you sit on one this would generally piss her off but she was in too much of a good mood to say anything. "She thinks that you think we're soulmates bonded for life do you think that?" You gently pull her closer to you by her waist "what kind of silly question is that? Of course I do I love you a ridiculous amount it makes sense" Shuri smiles "so what would you do for your soulmate?" You play with her hair and look at her "whatever you want you know why?" She hums "because you're my fucking soulmate" you laugh and kiss her over and over again "stop cursing."
"Make me" you laugh and smile at her "the easiest way to make you do something is to tease you until you give in if you didn't know" she hums "and how will you tease me my love?" You hop off the lab table and look down at your dress "well I'm not wearing anything under this dress" she gasps "oh that's scandalous you would never" you laugh and run your hands down her waist "want to check for yourself?" She glances around the lab and picks you up "let's see."
"Shuri!" She laughs "no one's here and they don't come in without my permission forget the world for a moment and just worry about us. No one else but us me and you. Soulmates"
A/n: not gone lie this was made long but I enjoyed writing it hopefully you enjoy reading it love. This is also unedited I don't have time to edit I'm a student.

What if Desmond was reborn as Shay’s son and the same age as Connor
We have this idea where Desmond is reborn as Shay’s son but, in that one, we made Desmond the same age as Arno for that sweet, sweet angst.
For this one, we need to talk about the timeline for a bit.
Ratonhnhaké:ton is born in 1756 and Shay put his lot with the Templars the same year.
This means Desmond has to be conceived in 1755 before Shay leaves for Lisbon. Specifically: Desmond must be conceived months before November 1 1755. (If you want, we can put it his birth date as March 13 then Desmond would have to be considered around June 1755)
He returns to the homestead late 1755 to early 1756 and there was a lot of snow during the cutscenes during that time so we can say Winter Months (December ~ February)
Why is this important?
Because we have a prime ‘candidate’ for Desmond’s mother:
Hope Jensen.
Hope would definitely hide the fact that she’s pregnant and would never say that Shay was the father.
Perhaps it was simply a night of passion that they never talked about.
Maybe there was a sliver of ‘something more’ but it was postponed when Shay sailed to Lisbon.
Regardless, Hope would still join the hunt for Shay and she would watch as he ‘dies’ after failing to persuade him into returning the manuscript (maybe even hint on her current ‘situation’)
After that, she would never tell anyone who the father of her son was.
Desmond would be born in one of her gang’s hideout.
He would stay with her while she worked for the Brotherhood and he would know she’s an Assassin early on. Her gang would serve as both his bodyguards and his nannies when she’s away.
He would be 1 year and 8 months old when his mother died while he was taken away by her most trusted gang members, running away when she noticed Shay spying on them while she was talking to Liam. Desmond was nearby and was taken away while Hope slowly filled the warehouse with poisonous gas.
Desmond would then watch the fall of the Brotherhood and his mother’s gang as Shay hunted them down.
By the time Desmond is four years old, the only living gang members that he knows of are the ones who took care of him.
To him, Shay Cormac is the man who betrayed the Brotherhood and joined the Templars to hunt them all down.
The man who killed Desmond’s mother.
And now we have the setup for Desmond’s revenge plot (with a twist).
So, in this one, Desmond comes to Achilles around the same time Ratonhnhaké:ton does. Maybe he timed it that way, maybe it was fate. An important thing to note is that he has been making a name of himself by rebuilding his mother’s gang.
Of course, it’s less of a gang and more of a Brotherhood by its own rights. They stick to the shadows and follow the Creed and its tenets.
People see him as a genius youngster.
The ones who raised him after Hope died believed that he’s a prodigy like his late mother.
So he didn’t come to Achilles to ask for him to train him, he came there to learn about Shay Cormac and if he knows his current location.
This is where our plot can diverse into specific plot points:
(1) Desmond learns Shay is his father but Shay remains oblivious.
(2) Shay learns Desmond is his son but Desmond doesn’t know about this.
(3) They learn of their connection with one another in different ways.
For Desmond, either one of the people who raised him (maybe the ‘nanny’) knew the truth, maybe she was a servant of the Jensen family who came to care for Desmond, or Hope left a letter for Desmond to read when he was older if she died to one of the people who cared for him beforehand.
For Shay, it could be the good old ‘Hope Jensen had a son’, ‘said son is around this age’, Shay remembers they had sex around that time, and did the math himself. Or the Templars learned of the connection and informed Shay.
This would change how tragic this becomes, especially on Shay’s side.
Desmond’s side though?
He already had a bad father as Desmond Miles. His father being the one to kill his mother? Yeah, that just another nail in the coffin he would be carving for Shay Cormac, to be honest.
Shay though? If he learned that Desmond is his son, he would absolutely try to connect with him.
He would be the reason why Shay would return to the colonies during AC3.
So if you want Shay to be part of AC3 then Shay must know that Desmond is his son.
Or…
He learned that Hope Jensen’s son has been wrecking havoc with Haytham Kenway’s son and felt that it was his duty to ‘finish’ what he started.
.
Whatever situation they have, Desmond would be loyal to the Brotherhood. Not Achilles’ Brotherhood but the one he made himself. He’d support Ratonhnhaké:ton on his missions while suggesting Ratonhnhaké:ton join them.
Haytham would even comment on how their relationship is a bit similar to Haytham’s relationship with Shay but with the ‘roles’ reversed.
Desmond would clarify that he sees Ratonhnhaké:ton as an equal.
Desmond and Ratonhnhaké:ton would also bond over having bad fathers (although Ratonhnhaké:ton would remind Desmond that Shay Cormac doesn’t even know that he has a son so it was less ‘bad father’ and more like ‘bad Assassin’). In the end, Desmond would never betray Ratonhnhaké:ton and he has no memories of Shay being anything ‘good’ to him. Being his mother’s killer definitely soured their entire relationship before it even started.
So… it’s not going to have a happy ending.
.
.
.
Or, you know, Desmond’s mother could be some random woman Shay slept with and he found out about him after betraying the Brotherhood. He raised him away from his Templar business and Desmond becomes an Assassin anyway because of Ratonhnhaké:ton. This one’s angst would be the hesitation of fighting his father.
Pick your poison. XD

avengers (and peter parker) on their wedding day, maybe seeing reader walk down the isle?
Tumblr media
Tony was very nervous at first, he kept glancing at the alley door, hoping you wouldn't get cold feet or run away..You had every right to.
He was a flirt, egotistical genius and you had had plenty other reasons to quit, give up..His foot was shaking and he was about to call the whole thing out when you appeared.
You were breath-taking.
Words got stuck in his throat and when you started walking, Tony felt that—out of all the Avengers—he was the luckiest.
"I do.."
He blurted out before the priest had even started the ceremonial speech. You smiled knowingly at him and Tony thanked his lucky star that he got to you first. He wasn't stupid, and knew you had had many proposals before him and he didn't think you would pick him, but you did..He wanted to do a little dance and shout very childishly.
"TAKE THAT, SUCKERS !"
But, he didn't want to sound like a complete asshole the day of your wedding, so he simply smiled back.
He almost forgot that he had a whole speech prepared for the occasion, a real teary-eyed emotional speech..But, when he opened his mouth to say them, the words that got out were completely different.
"Y/N L/N. I never thought you would become a Stark, even less to accept to go on a first date with me or become the one who brightens my life. But, for some reason ? I wouldn't have it any other way. And even though Stark used to be a name I wasn't proud of—that I despised even—I know that if you decide to wear it ? I would never be prouder of bearing any other name..You make me want—for the first time in my life—to embrace who I am and give my all so our future name may make you proud. I love you, Y/N.", he finished and you were thankful he did, because you would have had no time to shower him in praises in return.
"Tony Stark. Genius, billionaire, philanthropist..And, I hope, no more the playboy I used to know ?"
A couple of muffled chuckles and barely hidden snorts made themselves heard in the audience. However, you didn't mind them, as your eyes were still fixed on Tony who faked being offended, placing his hand flat on his chest with his eyes slightly agape in mocking indignation.
"I thought..How could someone so great ever be interested in me ? Out of every person in the high crowd..How could the incredible Tony Stark ever see me ? But—for some strange reason—you did. You took my hand and we danced. We danced, and it was on that first night that I knew. You were the one I would end up falling in love with, and even though there were a lot of stones and crevices along the way..Here we are."
Tony smiled knowingly at you. Your love had never been simple or straightforward, but it still led you to the altar. He didn't believe in destiny, but he had to admit it really seemed like it.
When it was finally the right time, he didn't hesitate before repeating the I do and you followed him suit.
Your love wasn't perfect, but it was worth it.
He then grabbed you and tilted you backwards to kiss you deeply, not caring about the room full of guests gasping and clapping energetically around you.
And to make it even better, Tony grabbed your hand and you both ran away, a car already waiting outside for you. When you were both in the car, he turned towards you and asked you with a small enigmatic smile.
"Where to, my lady/gentleman ?"
You thought about it for a moment before finally answering with a wide grin.
"How about..everywhere ?"
Tony seemed taken aback for a moment, but soon, his signature smile brightened his face and he kissed your knuckles before starting the car.
"EVERYWHERE ! HERE WE COME !", he declared loudly.
You missed the old man, standing next to the car, until your eyes briefly met and he smiled.
You were sure to have seen him somewhere before ? He waved and you waved back sheepishly. It was like you were saying goodbye to an old friend.
"Take good care of him..", he mouthed to you before Tony drove away.
Tumblr media
Clint was on the verge of tears. He had waited for that day for so long, he thought it would never come..
Natasha had to hold his hand while they were waiting. Clint knew he had to choose a best man, but he couldn't see anyone who deserved that title more than Natasha.
"Don't worry. They're coming. Hold the tears, you big softie."
Natasha admonished jokingly and he gasped a breath before nodding weakly.
"I'll try..", he replied with a little broken voice, his tone betraying his nervousness.
Natasha smiled sympathetically and patted his shoulder encouragingly.
At that moment, the doors opened and you appeared. In an instant, all of Clint's worries vanished. He just knew his heart seemed to be malfunctioning, as it couldn't stop beating faster than a running horse.
He felt cold sweat run down his spine and gulped loudly as you started walking towards him.
That was it.
The moment he had waited so long for and it took all of his will power not to laugh in relief. Finally. He would have everything he ever desired..You would be his wife/husband and the notion itself made him feel like everything he had to go through to find you was worth it.
He almost missed the priest's words and when it was his time to talk and tell you everything he felt for you ? He fell silent from a second or two in secret devotion before finally finding the right words.
"Y/N. I wanted to impress you. I even asked the others for advice on what I should say to you today..But, truth is ? There are no words strong enough to tell you how much I love you..You know me. I was always the quiet type, and even though, you found something in me. And, if you say yes today ? Know that you would make me the happiest man in the world."
He couldn't hold back his tears any longer, but you neither. You smiled happily at him and took a big breath before starting talking too.
"Clint. I knew from the beginning that winning you over would be a challenge. Tough guy who has terrible trust issues and a fortress around his heart that even I, had great difficulty piercing through. And God knows I've tried.."
It made him and the audience laugh, but if a marriage was to be successful, it had to be built on truth and trust. So, you had to be completely honest as to why you had fallen for that man that everything seemed to tell you not to at first..
"..But, I also saw a side of you that took me by surprise. A glimpse of who you truly are..You're the most caring and admirable man I have ever met and just for that, you gained my heart."
Clint blinked his tears away and when he held your hands and leaned forward to kiss you, it was beautiful and so true, it brought tears to Natasha's eyes as well.
When you took a step back and you smiled brightly at each other, you didn't even hear the loud cheers around you.
You threw the bouquet and it landed into an old man's hands. You didn't recognize him exactly, but you were sure to have seen him somewhere before..He smiled widely at you and shouted.
"SEE YOU AT MY WEDDING !"
You smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Send me an invitation !"
The old man smiled back and disappeared in the crowd afterwards. Your attention then went back to Clint who took your hand and led you to the exit, flowers raining on your path.
You knew you would be happy with him.
Tumblr media
A marriage on Asgard was everything you suspected it would be..especially for a royal wedding.
There was the whole kingdom chanting your name and the aisle was so long, you had trouble seeing the end of it..However, when you finally arrived, Thor was waiting for you in his glistening and shinning armor. He looked like one of those princes in fairy tales and you couldn't believe you would soon be his wife/husband.
"You look beautiful.", was the first thing he said to you and you couldn't deny it when he was looking at you with so much love and affection.
It was happening.
You would become the king/queen of Asgard.
Odin linked your arms together with a white cloth and since you are from Midgard, he also asked for the both of you to exchange wedding rings.
When it was time for your respective matrimonial speech, you started.
"You. Thor Odinson. You are everything I never thought possible. You are literally a god. A warrior with inimaginable powers who—one day—knocked on my doorstep and asked for my help. I never could have imagined that my decision of helping a stranger would lead me to where I am today..But, I'm very glad it did..I'm glad it lead me to you. Thor."
Thor beamed at you and for a moment, you could have sworn a tear escaped his eye, but he quickly wiped it away with his thumb before speaking too.
"You. Y/N of Midgard. Are and will always remain the only being in the universe I will ever willingly kneel to. I will offer you my undying loyalty to. And yet, I think it is not enough. Because, you deserve so much more than what a king, or a god can offer you. You deserve happiness, and I will enjoy spending my entire life making sure you will get it. OR MY NAME ISN'T THOR ODINSON !"
You cried a little and knew that Thor wasn't a liar and knowing you had such power over him filled you with pride. Your love for him was overflowing and your heart was beating alongside his like a silent imperceptible song only the two of you could hear.
When Odin asked you, you both said yes in unison, not leaving each other's eyes. You missed the way an old man was looking at the both of you with tenderness..As if he actually knew you.
"You can kiss the..."
Thor didn't wait, he leaned forward and pulled you flushed against him before kissing you breathless. The whole kingdom applauded and you wrapped your arms around his shoulder, everything disappearing around you.
But, a familiar voice succeeded in piercing through the crowd's clamoring to you.
"Have a great life you two."
You opened your eyes and looked around, but the old man was already gone and all that was left was the arms of your beloved around you. Thor tilted his head to look in the direction you were facing with a small worried frown.
"Is something the matter, Y/N ?"
You smiled reassuringly at him and shook your head.
"Nothing important..Let us go."
He smiled widely, as if he was waiting for you to say that before carrying you in his arms to the exit.
He was very excited about spending the night with you and show you everything Asgard had to offer. Your new home.

Bucky was surprisingly calm.
He knew you would come. He was standing straight next to Sam.
With Steve being gone, Sam was the best option and he remained stoic beside him with a small knowing smile on his lips.
He leaned forward to whisper.
"Don't worry, Bucky. After today, you'll no longer have a reason to keep that frown on your face."
Bucky huffed a laugh and as Sam had predicted, the moment his eyes fell on you, he smiled.
You were beautiful..He forgot where you were for a moment and took a step forward, eager to tell you how incredible you looked, but Sam stopped him by resting his hand on his shoulder.
"Calm down, tiger. Let them come to you."
Bucky stopped dead in his tracks and moved his leg up and down impatiently, a smile not leaving his face as he waited for you to walk the stairs of the altar. Once you were finally there, you looked at each other and Bucky instinctively reached for your hands.
The priest arrived and when it was time for the both of you to vocally express your love, you found yourself speechless. What could you say that might express the way you felt about him ? Thankfully, Bucky spoke first.
"Y/N..You are beautiful and smart and incredibly clever. I didn't expect you to be there by my side when times were rough for me, but you were..You are more than what I am worth and just by standing here today, you might as well consider me impressed and in love with you more than ever."
You smiled and nodded understandingly, knowing how every word from Bucky came from the heart. You blinked a few times to wipe the tears away and then replied.
"Bucky Barnes. You have suffered greatly in the past, but I sincerely hope you will find the happiness and peace you seek for with me..In that future we will build together."
It wasn't long, but it was the truth. Bucky could feel it as he smiled tenderly at you and reached for your hand once more. He was sure to find more than he ever bargained for with you and you both tried not to laugh as Sam almost tumbled forward in his eagerness to bring you the rings.
Once the rings exchanged and you both said yes to each other, Bucky kissed you passionately and you smiled into the kiss. You were finally married. When you pulled away, Bucky eyed the door significantly and you smiled again before nodding on agreement. It was time to go..Bucky grabbed your hand and you started running towards the exit.
Once out, Bucky was surprised to find a brand new moto at the gates of the church and was even more shocked when you unhesitatingly jumped on it.
You must have noticed his confusion as you turned towards him and shrugged.
"Happy wedding anniversary in advance ?", you threw the keys at him and Bucky's smile widened as he understood, this new beauty was all his.
"Did I already tell you how much I love you ?", he asked, running his hands on the shiny plastic with admiration.
"Once or twice.", you replied with a small teasing smile, happy that your gift was appreciated.
You glanced back at the church and found a man on the stairs, staring right at you. He smiled kindly when your eyes met and for some reason ? You knew he was someone important.
You smiled back before Bucky climbed on the seat his brand new motorcycle and you wrapped your arms around his waist.
"Am I still your favorite ?", you teased as Bucky was obviously still admiring the moto, but he immediately broke eye contact with her to look at you.
"Have no doubt about that. I'm the one riding her. You ? I would let you ride me."
Your smile dropped for a moment as you registered what he just said, but Bucky didn't let you reply before starting the engine.
You would have all the time to figure it out on your honeymoon. *wink wink*
The priest was the first one out after you and you locked eyes for a moment. He smiled and winked at you before shouting.
"Enjoy the ride !"
Tumblr media
Scott took a big breath before breathing out loudly, skipping from one foot to the other nervously..He had already been a groom once, it didn't end well..He sincerely hoped this time around would be different. He had Cassie by his side with her little basket full of pink rose petals and he wanted to show her that her dad wasn't a complete failure.
But, he was scared.
He closed his eyes and breathed deeply through his nose to calm himself down, but it was difficult.
What was he doing ?! Why go through the same process when he already knew marriage had never worked out with him ?
However, when the door slammed open and you appeared, as gorgeous as the day you met..He knew why he was here. He knew why he was risking it. He was risking it for you. Because you were worth it. Because you were different.
His heart filled with love and his eyes with tenderness as he saw you walk the aisle. It was like an angel had suddenly come along to brighten his day and make his insecurities wash away..You were here. It was all that mattered.
He took a step forward and extended his hand towards you that you took with a big smile..Gosh. He would die for that smile.
When it was time for the marital vows, Scott had planned the whole thing, had written it down even. But, as his eyes locked with yours, he realized it didn't matter. Whatever he could possibly say, you already knew.
So, he decided to speak from the heart and improvise, something he never really was good at..according to a lot of people.
"Y/N. You're the man/woman of my life. From the moment we met, I never doubted a second that we would eventually be together. However, I won't lie. I was scared. Still am, actually. I wasn't a good husband, not even a good man either to be honest..I want to believe that I can be with you, but it's hard. I'm excited, hopeful and it's fantastic, but also terrifying. I've never felt like this before, not since Cassie was born. I'm so in love with you. I can't wait to kiss you, have children with you, have a life with you, change diapers with you and..", he chuckled awkwardly at the sudden silence in the church/room after that last part and massaged the back of his neck nervously,"..I ruined the moment, didn't I ?"
You laughed. You laughed, and Scott's eyes widened as tears formed at the corner of your eyes and he feared you were laughing at him, but he quickly discarded the idea.
"Scott..You fool ! You're the best man I have ever met ! You are an amazing father, a goddamn superhero and I can't believe you can't see it yet ! I'm so in love with you, I want all the things you want and more ! I don't care about your past. I love you, Scott. You."
Scott couldn't hold it any longer and pulled you in his arms, not even sparing a glance at the crowd around you. You laughed and kissed each other before the priest had even finished the request and shouted in unison when it was time to say yes, eager to be alone together.
You then ran and you took Cassie in your arms, the three of you entering Scott's car in a hurry, ignoring her mother's protests.
At the last minute, you could have sworn seeing an old man waving at you, but it was only a flick of the moment and you shook your head.
You were going home and Cassie beamed up at you.
"I KNEW YOU WOULD BE MY NEW MOMMY/DADDY !"
You laughed at that and when Scott kissed your knuckles, you knew your future would be amazing.
Tumblr media
Stephen was surprised. He wasn't surprised that he was getting married. That. He knew.
He was surprised to find you already waiting for him at the end of the aisle..34 hours before the wedding. You weren't wearing a dress/suit, but you were still there, as if waiting for him..as if you knew he would be there.
He floated down next to you and you stood still, not even glancing at him. You knew he had something to ask you..
Stephen looked up at the ceiling.
Maybe would he find the words up there ?
There was something bothering him..
It wasn't him who had asked you. He thought he would be the one to put a knee on the ground and get out the ring, but you beat him to it..And the only answer you had given him when he had asked you about this sudden decision, was an enigmatic smile and a cheeky wink.
It was gnawing at him. However, your voice cut him out of his thoughts as you turned towards him.
"I wanted to see you..Just, to make sure you're okay."
His eyes widened. It was his wedding, why wouldn't he be okay ?! He was ecstatic, he couldn't wait to be eternally linked through marital contract with you..He had waited too long when love had knocked at his door the first time, he wouldn't make the same mistake twice. So, he lied. He smiled and shook his head.
"I'm okay.."
The look you gave him showed that you weren't fooled, but you didn't persist. He would tell you eventually..
There was still this worry persisting in the back of his head, and even though he wanted to tell you, he couldn't.
So, when it was the time for marital vows on your wedding day, only one question went past his lips.
"Y/N..Why did you propose ?"
Your brow furrowed and you looked up at him with confusion in your eyes and he understood he would have to be clearer.
"Why did you propose first ? You knew I would have eventually done it..Right ?"
Your reaction wasn't the one he expected as your straight out busted into laughter..He knew he should be upset, but the sound was so beautiful, he couldn't help but laugh as well.
"Right. Stupid question.", he quickly added, but you shook your head and held his hands in yours. You smiled absent-mindedly at his calloused fingertips and wondered how many people he had saved with those hands ?
"Stephen Strange..If I had waited for you to propose to me, I would have died a bachelor/an old maiden."
He was shocked at first, but let out a soft chuckle at the realization..You were right. Stephen had a problem when it came to taking decisions, especially concerning the matters of the heart. He should have known.
Well..He had his answer now.
The priest smiled as he saw Stephen's contempt expression, which was known to be a rare sight.
"Stephen Stradt..", he started, but was interrupted by Stephen.
"It's Strange."
The priest frowned a little at the correction before continuing.
"Right, Strand. Will you take Y/N to be your wife/husband ?"
Stephen stopped himself from rolling his eyes and decided to ignore the priest and looked back at you. You were radiant and Stephen felt his chest fill with pride at the thought that finally, he had found his happiness. He would no longer be alone.
"Yes.", it came a little too quick and by the way your smile slightly widened, you knew too.
You followed suit and when he leaned forward to kiss you, you let him linger there a few seconds longer than necessary, certain that that kiss would stay in both of your memories until the end of your lives.
You then pulled away and Stephen turned towards the crowd, trying to remain composed, but failing as his cape started wiping his tears away.
"Quit it.", he ordered and the cape indulged, but seeing Stephen's red face was enough for you to let out a small laugh. He sent you a death glare, but it softened as he realized you were now his wife/husband..that he would get to hear your laugh again and again. It made him smile again.
A few days later, the marriage papers would arrive and you would both be surprised to find the correct last name on the document.
"I knew it ! That old priest was mocking me !", Stephen exclaimed in disbelief and you laughed.
However, you then found another small note written by the priest to your attention.
Take good care of that old grunt for me. I wish you both a good fulfilling life.
You smiled at the note and the faint memory of the priest's face came back to you..Somehow, you were certain to have seen him somewhere before ?
Stephen noticed your thoughtful expression and squeezed your hand.
"Is something the matter ?"
You looked back at him and smiled reassuringly before shaking your head.
"Nothing. Just an odd feeling of melancholy..It'll pass."
Stephen didn't further on the subject, but he did extend his hand forward to lead you outside.
"How about a walk outside to clear our minds, Y/N Strange ?"
You smiled at the name and nodded in agreement.
"There is nothing I would like more, Stephen Strange."
Tumblr media
Peter was late.
It was to be expected. It wasn't easy to be a superhero.
However, what you didn't expect was Spiderman to crash your wedding and land in front of you. You knew that Peter was Spiderman, but many of the guests didn't. Or, so you thought ? There weren't that many guests, and since your few family members that could come had been delayed by traffic, you couldn't be sure.
"What are you doing ?", you whispered to him and he shrugged before replying.
"There was too much traffic. I didn't want to be too late to my own wedding.."
You rolled your eyes and hid your amused smile before turning towards the priest and gestured him to continue the ceremony. The priest, after a few seconds of staring at the unexpected groom, indulged. When the part of the vows arrived, you wondered if you should spare his whole secret identity thing by addressing him as Spiderman ? But, he spared you the trouble as he started.
"Y/N. We went to class together. We fought crime together. And now, we're getting married..Wow. If I didn't know any better, I would say you have a crush on me ?"
It made you laugh. Typical Peter..Always had to get the last laugh. But, not this time.
His eyes widened when you started undressing in front of everybody and Peter then noticed your hero suit underneath.
"What are you doing ?!", he exclaimed, mourning the dress as it fell to the floor.
"There is no way you're getting married in your hero suit and I don't ! Now, help me get out of that dress/suit !"
"Yes, ma'am/sir."
Peter eagerly agreed with a small amused laugh and then helped you undress while the guests looked at each other, wondering if it was all part of the wedding plan. But, when you were both in your hero suits and Peter held your hand, it felt like there was only the two of you.
It felt right.
And when your eyes met ? There was this warm sensation that spread across your body and when it was time for the kiss, you pulled him in. Peter didn't complain.
He thought he would never get to ask you to marry him, as many heroes die young. He knew this the moment he became Spiderman..He thought he would never get to see you in a wedding dress/suit. But, here you were.
You were married. It was done. Peter's eyes watered and he quickly wiped them away. He wasn't going to cry at his own wedding.
But, you seemed to read his mind as your own eyes brimmed with tears of joy.
You kissed him again and Peter swore he could have died of happiness right there.
He then remembered where you were and pulled away, his hand still in yours as he turned towards the crowd. There was aunt May, clapping next to Happy who was trying his best to remain stoic, but failing spectacularly as he burst into tears. Aunt May gave him a handkerchief that he accepted gratefully.
Peter smiled affectionately at them, but then his eyes caught another pair of eyes on him. An old man was sitting at the far end of the room/church and was clapping too. He had a pair of sunglasses on and even though Peter had never seen him before, he was familiar to him somehow..It was an odd feeling, a mix of melancholy and relief. It was as if his uncle Ben was still there, still watching over him.
You also noticed the old man who left the church with his fist raised to the sky.
"Good job, kid.."
Tumblr media
"Who put the marinara sauce next to the tortilla chips ?!", was the first thing you heard when you entered the room where there was suppose to occur you wedding after-party. There was no doubt it was your wife who had just exclaimed her disapproval and was now rearranging the whole design of the room to her taste.
You pretended to be as obfuscated as her by the room arrangement, even though you were the one who had placed the marinara sauce next to the tortilla chips.
"What ?! Where is the police ?! The National Guard ?! The army ?! A crime has been committed !", you joked and she sent you a glare that immediately made you raise your hands up in surrender.
"I'm innocent, officer. I swear."
She rolled her eyes, but a small smile betrayed her amusement as she huffed before exchanging the marinara sauce for some guacamole..Figures.
"It is no laughing matter ! I want everything to be perfect."
You repressed an eye roll before wrapping your arms around her waist and resting your chin on her shoulder, while she was working her magic to make everything "perfect." Then, a dark thought crossed your mind.
"Say..Did you ever try to make me 'perfect' too ? Just wondering..", you wanted to sound nonchalant, but Wanda was not fooled. She suddenly stopped her actions to focus on you and saw the sudden hesitancy in your eyes.
She framed your face with her hands and slowly tilted your head so you would look her in the eyes. She then gave you the brightest and most genuine smile she could muster before kissing your forehead.
"You already are.", she finally answered and you felt your heart skip a beat at her confession. You smiled back at her and kissed her sweetly.
"I love you..", you whispered against her lips and she laughed, a light and beautiful laugh so pure it sounded like your wedding bells were already ringing.
"I sure hope so..", she replied with a small amused smile and you held her close.
Who could have predicted a little red witch would have stolen your heart ?
An old man then entered and coughed to get your attention.
"I'm sorry to interrupt..But, if you youngsters would like to follow me, I would like to show you the cake. It has arrived earlier than expected."
Before you could answer, Wanda gave the old man a wide grin and clapped excitedly.
"OF COURSE ! Lead the way..", she then grabbed your arm and dragged you forward, eager to see the cake with you (and maybe even get a taste.)
You walked past the old man and mouthed him in exaggerated helplessness.
"Help."
But the old man raised his hands, clearly signifying that his hands were tied and watched you both walk away with a small smile on his face.
"...I hope you will finally be happy, Wanda."

"Once the war is over, I'll marry you. I promise, Y/N."
Steve had promised to you before going to war all those years ago, and you had waited..You had waited..But, he never came back.
When Steve was found under the ice, his first thought after being brought back to life was to find you. But, what he found wasn't what he wanted..He learned that after long years of waiting, your heart had stopped one morning. He walked into the cemetery and his eyes prickled with tears as he saw your name carved in the stone. You were supposed to grow old together..
And now, you were six feet under the ground and Steve could only wish he wouldn't have waited..He played with the ring in his fingers and bent his head forward to hide his tears from view..It was not supposed to end this way.
He loved you..He still loved you..It wasn't fair.
He tightened his fist around the ring and wondered if he should just get rid of it ? Would it bring him some kind of closure ? Would he finally find peace ?
He then buried one knee in the ground in front of your grave and asked the question he had been so nervous to ask in the past, one that he had no trouble with now..Now that it was too late.
"Y/N L/N..Would you marry me ?"
The pang in his chest tightened at the deadly silence. He would never get his answer it seemed.
He burst into tears, his teardrops falling onto the ground, watering the dry earth beneath him and making it all the more real.
What had he ever done to deserve this ?
"I'm sorry..I'm so sorry I was too late, Y/N. I..You don't know how much I would have wanted to be there. I would give everything to get back to you..I love you. I love you so much. It hurts."
Captain Rogers who was normally so composed, could only crumble in the dirt for your forgiveness. He had seen all of his old camarades marry and die on the battlefield..Now, he didn't know if he pitied or envied them.
He would keep fighting. But, what was the point now ? You were gone.
He left the ring on your tombstone and walked away..only to walk back to retrieve it.
He couldn't give up. He wouldn't..Never.
A few years later :
When Steve stayed in the past, he only had one thing in his mind: you.
He ran so fast, faster than ever before and climbed the stairs by four, racing through your front yard to knock at your door. He was breathless and knocked a second time more urgently, hoping that you would be the one opening the door.
Finally, footsteps were heard and the door opened ajar.
You appeared. The door wasn't completely open that he was already embracing you.
"Y/N..", he uttered your name with such relief, it brought tears to your eyes.
You returned his embrace and buried your face in his neck.
"I missed you..so much.", you cried out and Steve tightened his hold on you, thinking of the irony in your words bitterly.
"I missed you too..And I don't want to wait any longer."
You pulled away confused, until Steve fell on one knee in front of you and got out the ring he had bought all those years ago.
"Y/N L/N. Would you..?"
He didn't get to finish the question.
"YES ! YES YES YES. ! ONE MILLION YES !", you interrupted him and jumped into his arms, making you both fall backwards.
When the ring was slipped on your finger, you looked at it with such a bright smile, Steve could only adore you more for it.
You were both in such bliss that you failed to notice the man standing on the other side of the road, gazing upon the both of you with almost paternal tenderness.
"Finally..You are all happy now."

Twice's 10th member is dating Le Sserafim's Kazuha
A/N: Heyyy, I'm coming up with a lot of stuff for you guys so I can make up for the time I'm gone lol! Sry for taking so long to post :D I hope my friend Thira_Harris who gave me this idea on Wattpad likes it! :)
The request: Hi I want to request can you do where y/n is dating le sserafim kazuha and the members were a little shock( especially j-line) as they still think y/n as a kid and they saw le sserafim members babying y/n especially kazuha. They approve of kazuha after seeing her take care of y/n. Thank u
PS: Tysm for everyone who reads what I write, I hope I can bring a smile to your faces every time I post! I'd like to thank whoever sent me this idea 'cause I loved to write it <3
__________________________________________________________
Y/N had always been the baby of the group, the youngest member of TWICE by a significant amount. Even though she had grown up in the public eye, she still carried an air of innocence and youth that endeared her to fans and her fellow members alike. So, when news broke that she was dating Kazuha from the internationally renowned girl group LE SSERAFIM, it was met with both surprise and curiosity.
The news hit the K-pop world like a bombshell. Y/N and Kazuha's relationship had been a well-guarded secret, known only to a select few in their inner circles (Not their groups though, they were afraid to come out). But somehow, the paparazzi had caught wind of their romance, and before they knew it, the story was splashed across every entertainment news outlet in South Korea.
In the cosy living room of TWICE's dorm, the members gathered to discuss the shocking news. Nayeon, as mom number 2, had called the emergency meeting as soon as she'd heard about it.
Nayeon - So, our baby is dating Kazuha...
Nayeon spoke with a mixture of surprise and amusement as she glanced around the room, taking in the expressions of her fellow members. 
Nayeon - Who would've thought? 
Dahyun, the group's resident mood-maker (our tofu), grinned widely. 
Dahyun - I always knew our cutie pie would grow up someday! And to think she's dating someone as cool as Kazuha. That's amazing!
Jeongyeon (mom number 3) chuckled. 
Jeongyeon - It's about time she started dating. She's not a kid anymore.
But not everyone in the room shared their enthusiasm. Momo, Mina, and Sana, collectively known as the J-line, exchanged worried glances. They had always seen Y/N as their adorable little sister, even though she was only a few years younger than them. The thought of her dating someone famous and seemingly mature like Kazuha was a bit hard to digest.
Sana voiced their concerns. 
Sana - I mean, it's great that Y/N is happy and all, but isn't Kazuha, like, super sophisticated? Our angel is still so innocent. I hope she doesn't get hurt.
Mina nodded in agreement. 
Mina - Yeah, and you know how protective LE SSERAFIM's members are of Kazuha. I can't imagine what they'd do if they found out she's dating our Y/N.
Momo soon added. 
Momo - I've seen pictures of Kazuha taking care of Y/N like she's a little kid. What if she's just playing with her emotions?
Nayeon tried to ease their concerns. 
Nayeon - Come on, guys, we don't know the full story. Y/N is a smart girl, we did raise her well. She wouldn't date someone who's not good for her.
As the days went by, the news of Y/N and Kazuha's relationship continued to make headlines. Paparazzi followed them everywhere, trying to get a glimpse of the couple. But Y/N and Kazuha handled it with grace and composure, always smiling for the cameras.
One evening, the J-line decided to visit TWICE's honey in her new apartment to check up on her. They found her sitting on the couch, scrolling through her phone and wearing a contented smile.
Sana couldn't help but tease her. 
Sana - So, darling, how's it going with Kazuha? Are you two, like, madly in love or something?
Y/N blushed and nodded. 
Y/N - Yeah, unnie. We're really happy together. Kazuha is amazing, you know!
Mina looked concerned. 
Mina - But, my love, are you sure about this? She's so different from us. We're worried she might not understand you completely.
Y/N appreciated their concern but couldn't help but feel defensive. 
Y/N - She does understand me, maybe even better than you guys. She's seen a different side of me that you haven't.
Momo after some time finally asked something they really wanted to know. 
Momo - What about the rest of LE SSERAFIM? Are they okay with this? 
Y/N - They don't know yet. Kazuha and I wanted to keep it private until we were sure about us. *sighing*
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Y/N's heart skipped a beat. She knew that special knock, it was Kazuha. She quickly got up and answered the door with a beaming smile.
Kazuha entered the apartment, her aura oozing confidence and sophistication. She looked stunning, as always, in a designer outfit. Y/N's heart swelled with pride as she introduced her to the J-line.
Y/N - Unnies, this is Kazuha. Kazuha, these are my older sisters, Sana, Mina, and Momo.
Kazuha greeted them with a polite smile and a slight bow. 
Kazuha - It's a pleasure to meet you all. Y/N has told me so much about you.
The J-line exchanged surprised glances. Kazuha's demeanour was far more refined than they had expected. Maybe she wasn't as unapproachable as they had feared.
Momo, always the boldest, decided to get to the bottom of things. 
Momo - So, Kazuha, how did you and our youngest meet?
Kazuha's eyes softened as she looked at her girl. 
Kazuha - We met at a charity event. Y/N was volunteering, and I was performing. She caught my eye, and we started talking. It just clicked from there.
Sana, still sceptical, asked another question. (interrogation mode: on)
Sana - And what do you like about Y/N?
Kazuha didn't hesitate. 
Kazuha - I love her kindness, her passion for music, and her dedication to her group and fans. She's an incredible person, and I feel lucky to have her in my life.
Mina couldn't help but smile.
Mina - Well, she's lucky to have you too, it seems.
As the evening wore on, the J-line began to see a different side of Y/N and Kazuha's relationship. They were playful with each other, sharing inside jokes and laughter. Kazuha, far from babying Y/N, treated her as an equal partner in their relationship.
Before they left, Sana spoke up. 
Sana - I have to admit, Kazuha, I was worried at first. But seeing how happy you make our dongsang, I can't help but approve.
Mina and Momo nodded in agreement. 
Mina - Yeah, you two are great together!
Kazuha smiled warmly. 
Kazuha - Thank you, unnies. I promise I'll take good care of Y/N.
With that, they said their goodbyes, leaving Y/N and Kazuha alone in the apartment. Y/N turned to Kazuha, her eyes sparkling with happiness.
Y/N - They really like you, Kazuha. I'm so glad!!
Kazuha pulled her into a gentle hug. 
Kazuha - I like them too, sweetheart. And I'm glad they see how much I care about you.
As weeks turned into months, Y/N's relationship with Kazuha continued to flourish. The J-line, initially worried about their precious little sister, now fully supported the relationship as the rest of the group met the girl and made sure that she had good intentions, finally giving their seal of approval too. The moms, especially Jihyo, had to take some time for themselves to understand that their kid had grown up and they couldn't do anything more than be there for her. They had come to realize that love had no boundaries, and Kazuha was the perfect match for their beloved maknae. And this made them all think: 
We love our dear family.
A/N: I'm sorry for any errors, English is not my first language. Pls, let me know if there's something wrong, ty for reading <3

I love your writting! Could you do something with the fluff prompt #2 for Nico Hischier. Maybe like the reader is a Hughes and is trying to keep her relationship with Nico a secret from her brothers because they're really protective of her!
Couldn't Help Myself
Fluff #2 "Stop looking at me like that" "I cant help it, you're just so beautiful" w/ Nico Hischier
I have always been close to my brothers, so I was always included in most of their plans, especially Jack’s being I am his twin sister. There was also a non spoken rule around my brothers teammates and friends and it was not to date me or honestly even look at me like that in any way. 
Nico and I began secretly seeing each other at the beginning of this season. I typically will tell my parents I’m going to Ann Arbor to see Luke for the weekend or that I’m going to see Jack. Being the only girl of three boys they usually believed me. 
Today when I arrived at Jack’s, Jack told me we were going out to the city with some of his friends, so I knew I had to impress. I went upstairs in Jack’s loft the the spare bedroom and decided on a hot pink bustier tube top with black pants. The outfit flattered my curves nicely, and had lots of cleavage. As I finish up throwing my hair in a messy ponytail I hear Jack yell from down the stairs.
“Everyone is here Y/n, hurry up!” he yells.
“Okay, I’m coming!” I say, spritzing some perfume and making my way down the stairs. When I reach the bottom I see Nico and he gives me a soft smile in which I return before Jack’s voice ruins the moment.
“Nope. Absolutely not!” he says, turning me around towards the stairs. “Go put your clothes on”
“No, I like this” I say turning back around
“I see too much or your-” he stops than does circular motions around his chest area
“Cleavage…?” I question
“Yes” He replies. I give in and walk upstairs putting on a white long sleeve crop top before meeting them back downstairs.
“Better?” I say as I reach the bottom
“I guess. Let’s go!” He replies. 
We made it to the bar where Jack immediately leaves me. “Good talk” I say to myself since he has been ignoring me since we left his apartment. “Asshole” I say to myself again as I take a seat at a barstool.
“I’m sorry, did I do something wrong?” I turn to see Nico sitting beside me at the bar laughing
“There you are” I say with a smile, “I lost you on the way in!”
“He is just being protective, yunno?” Nico says about my ‘asshole’ comment, “Besides, I liked what you were wearing” Nico continues making me blush. 
“Let’s go outside, I need some air” I say, Nico stands up grabbing my hand taking us outside. “It’s raining!” I say with excitement grabbing Nico and pulling him out in the alley with me. “Dance we me”. Nico laughs, grabbing my waist and then spinning me around. He leans down and plants a kiss. When we pull away he still holds me close just looking into my eyes. “Stop looking at me like that” I say pushing a wet strand of hair out of my face.
“I can’t help it, you’re just so beautiful” Nico says coming in for another kiss. Before our lips met we were interrupted by an angry Jack
“Can you repeat that?” Jack says. Nico and I both push away from each other to face Jack. “Oh did I interrupt something?” he continues
“Can we talk at home?” I ask Jack
“Good Idea. Lets go.” He says pulling out his phone and getting an Uber. “Come on.” he said and I followed looking back at Nico with sad, apologetic eyes.
When we got back home Jack sat on the couch and I sat beside him. “How long has this been going on?” he questions
“A couple months” I say, “I’m not sorry though” I snap before Jack can say anything hurtful.
“Wait until I tell Quinn” Jack says pulling his phone out.
“No don’t” I plead. Jack and I’s relationship is a lot different than Quinn and I’s, The only person that could get through to Quinn is Jack so I’ll need him on my side.
“Why? You are dating my teammate!” He says standing over me
“Your captain actually” I say back. Jack rolls his eyes and dials Quinn. “No! Please Jack I’m actually begging you!” i say. He hangs up before Quinn could answer. “I will tell you anything you want to know! Please can this please stay between you and I before I figure this out?” I plead again
“Is this the first secret relationship you’ve had on one of my teammates?” Jack asks
“Yes, I promise” I say
“Who made the first move?” 
“I don’t remember, mutual? I guess”
“You guys only kiss right?”
“Jack don’t ask questions you don’t want answers too”
“Gross!” Jack gags, “I won’t be able to look at him”
“Jack you know how much I’ve heard from you, Quinn, and Luke?” I say, “Can you please try to understand?” I plead
“Fine, I’ll try. For you!” He says “But I’m not being nice to the guy!”
“You have to” I say laughing. Jack frowns at me before giving me a hug
“And yes, we can keep this from Quinn and Luke… for now” Jack says

Can you do headcanons for the gang comforting you after you break up with your s/o of 4 years? 😢 it's your choice if you wanna add that they had a crush on you while you were dating that person or if they're just comforting you as friends! Thank you!
“He doesn’t deserve you”
A/N: i absolutely hate this tbh and went wayyyy off topic but anyway. this does reference the book a lot at the end so pretend bob was never killed by pony. i mean it’s hinted at that bob is the ex but still.

Tumblr media
“i really thought he was the one..” Y/N sat on the sofa in the Curtis house crying. “Y/N..i know you loved him, but he was never a good person. why do you think i wouldn’t let him around here? i knew from the start that something bad was going to happen but i didn’t have any reason to think that.” Darry sighed. “i should’ve told you though anyway.” Y/N wiped their eyes “No, no i get that. i just wish that i saw it. now he’s running around with that redhead Soc. why did i think he ever loved me?”
Just then, the rest of the gang piled in the door. “Who do i have to kill?” Steve and Dally said in sync. Y/N laughed. “We’re not going to kill anyone, i’m just going to hospitalise him.” they winked at the boys. there was a silence for a moment. “I think i’m gonna go for a quick walk. Dal come with me.” Darry announced, standing up. “will you be alright Y/N?” he looked back at them. “Yeah i’ll be alright.” they smiled before darry and dally walked out. Soda sighed “they’re gone to beat him up.” “I know” Y/N replied, way too cheerful. “im gonna follow them.” they stood up “Woah there cowboy(g/n) you really think that you can go storming out to beat your ex up?” Two-Bit put a hand on their shoulder. “yea i do. i hate his guts. That’s enough for me to be able to fight god never mind him” they snapped. Y/N quickly hugged Two before running out and down the street. After they ran out he froze. “SHIT.” Soda looked up at him “what?” Two turned to face him slowly. “Y/N took my blade..” It was now everyone else’s turn to freeze. “Shit.” they all said in union.
Meanwhile Darry and Dally were having a ‘chat’ with Y/N’s ex. by chat i mean they were completely kicking his ass. though neither of them had pulled a blade, they didn’t want to fight dirty no matter how angry they were. “Y/N is the sweetest, loyalest, most caring people you will ever meet. They’re like a sibling to me and when someone messes with my family, well, this is what happens to ya.” Darry hissed. Just then Y/N walked in. “Y/N! You’re here to stop them right?” Their ex fell to the ground, blood streaming down his face. It made Y/N feel slightly sick looking at him. “Dar, Dal. i think you got your point across. we don’t want a murder on our hands now do we?” Darry chuckled. “you really think i have that little self control? his nose isn’t even broken.” Y/N leaned down and helped their ex up. They hugged him. “This is what you get.” Before their ex could ask what they mean, Y/N drove the blade of Two-Bit’s blade into his stomach. “What..the fuck..” He whispered. Darry gasped, Dally smirked as if to say he expected it though you could see a glint of fear in his eyes. Y/N pulled the blade out and stuck it back in their pocket. “Dal, where did you say that church was? Windrixville was it?” they asked. “Y-Yea, windrixville.” dally stuttered. “well i guess i have a long journey ahead of me and hey, if they ask where i am say i’m going to Texas.” They wink before walking off into the night, leaving the two boys standing there, stunned.

Hi!Sorry for my late request(02:18 am European time)can you make a Gavi fluff where y/n is Xavis daughter and he brings Gavi for dinner and Nurìa(Xavis wife)started a conversation abt him marrying y/n,and Dan(Xavis son)and Asia(Xavis daughter)love Gavi?
A/n: I wasn't quite sure what you were asking for so I put my own spin on it I hope that's ok 
My life has always been a little crazy I mean how could it not when growing up with a famous footballer for a dad. My whole life I've been around footballers and had to endure constant usually unwanted media attention when with my parents and sometimes on my own. All of this meant that when I got older I decided I wanted to live a quiet life away from the media and just be a normal person or as normal as I can be. Of course I love my family and wouldn't change my life for anything but I just wanted to be a normal teenager and go to school and then get a regular job and I told myself that I would never date a footballer. That rule was the one thing I always stuck by no matter how many tried to ask me out I always said no because it wasn't the life I wanted for myself. 
None of it lasted very long though as when my dad got the job of being Barcelona manager and asked me if I'd like to go with him to one of the training sessions I stupidly said yes. Despite wanting to live a normal life football was still an interest of mine and my whole family still followed Barca very closely so of course I wanted to meet the team of players I religiously watched play every weekend. When I went to the training session I expected I just meet the players, watch them train when go back to my regular life but that didn't happen. When we got there I saw a really cute guy who I'd never seen before my dad introduced him as Gavi the new young star from la masia that would be playing with the team this season. Gavi and I seemed to have an instant connection even without really talking to him I could tell that at the very least we would be good friends. 
That day after the training session was over I spoke to Gavi for a while and we got on really well he insisted I call him by his real name not his nickname and before I left gave me his number. From that day on we talked all the time and I spent plenty of hours just sitting with him after training so that we could be together without anyone bothering us. Naturally over a few months I developed feelings for him and luckily he felt the same so we quickly started dating and my quiet life that I envisioned went out the window. Not sticking to the rule I set myself was definitely worth it as Pablo is a great boyfriend and makes me so happy. The two of us were both on the same page about wanting as much privacy as possible so we only went out in public together if we were with other people and we didn't really tell anyone about our relationship including my dad. 
We managed to keep our relationship a secret for a year before we decided to start telling a few more people like Pablo's teammates and some friends who we knew we could trust. Another few months after that it got to the point where we had to tell my dad because he was starting to get suspicious after I kept coming to training sessions and when I was always with a friend but never telling him who. I was so nervous about telling him as I thought he would be mad at me for dating one of his players and I didn't want him being angry to affect how much Pablo played. After thinking about how to tell my dad for weeks eventually I just came out with it one day after getting back from a date with Pablo. To begin with he didn't know what to say which had me panicking but then he smiled and I knew he wasn't mad. Of course he had a lot of questions so I spent a good 30 minutes telling him pretty much everything but by the end of the conversation he was very happy as he trusts Pablo not to do anything stupid. 
After telling my dad that evening I told the rest of my family and my dad insisted that Pablo come round for family dinner at the weekend. I was going to protest as I know Pablo will be nervous about it but my dad insisted he come and my mum wanted to properly meet Pablo too so I had no choice other than to just let it happen. I planned to be the one to ask him but my dad got in before I could so of course he said yes but then frantically text me about what would happen over dinner. 
That family dinner happens to be tonight and all day Pablo has been really nervous which I can tell because he hasn't said much to me all day and usually he can talk all day about literally nothing. As it has got closer to the time we need to leave he has got even worse as I caught him just staring into his wardrobe trying to decide what to wear as he wanted to make a good impression. In the end I had to pick and outfit for him as he just wouldn't not decided on something and as much as he looks good shirtless it was getting painful to watch him be so indecisive over what shirt to wear. Once he was ready he just sat quietly on his bed clearly deep in thought which I just knew I had to stop before he psyched himself out too much. 
"Pablo love stop overthinking things I promise it will all be ok" I said trying to make him feel better 
"But what if they don't like me?" He asked 
"Don't be silly they will love you my dad already knows you and thinks you are a great guy and believe me he's hard to impress so the rest of my family will definitely love you" I reassured him 
"You promise they won't think I'm some playboy footballer" he said 
"Of course they won't as soon as they get to know you they will realise you are nothing like that plus they know I never planned to date a footballer so you must be a pretty good guy for me to change that" I said 
"I'm glad you think I'm a pretty good guy" he laughed 
"I don't just think that I think you're pretty damn hot too" I said 
"Why thank you you're pretty cute yourself" he said giving me a kiss 
When the Pablo I know and love was back we headed to my car and I drove us both to my parents place which isn't far but the less time we spent getting there the better. As we arrived I grabbed Pablo's hand and squeezed it to reassure him as I rang the doorbell before just opening the door knowing my parents were expecting me. They both came to the door quickly and I introduced Pablo as my boyfriend even though they both already know who he is. My dad was quick to welcomed him in and I followed behind with my mum. All of us sat down on the sofa but no one managed to get a word out before my siblings ran into the room. I properly introduced them to Pablo but not as a player on dads team but as my boyfriend. 
Being the way my siblings are they asked a million questions to Pablo trying to get to know him but also assess him in their own way to make sure he was good enough for me. Despite me being the oldest by quite a few years my siblings love to try and protect me which definitely involves interrogating any boy that comes anywhere near me. Once they were satisfied with the answers Pablo had given them they then just wanted to drag him off to play with them. He looked at me unsure what to do but I pretty much pushed him off to sofa to go and join them and I followed after him. We all ran around the garden together for ages which for two young kids and a professional footballer is easy but for me it was not and after a while I was completely out of breath so left the three of them out there to go and help prepare dinner. 
My mum was in kitchen so I joined her and helped in preparing the last few things needed for dinner. While we both cut vegetables we talked about Pablo and I finally got a chance to tell her how much of a nice guy he is. I know my mum doesn't care who I date as long as they treat me well so I wanted to make sure she knew that Pablo is the sweetest boyfriend. We talked for a while just about life before I felt an arm go around my waist and a kiss be pressed to my cheek. Of course I knew it was Pablo so I turned around and smiled at him before getting back to chopping. 
"Do you need any help?" Pablo asked 
"No it's alright I'm almost done actually could you get the saucepan out of the cupboard on my right please?" I asked
"Of course love what are we making Mrs Cunillera?" He asked trying to make conversation 
"I don't remember what it's called but it's a recipe from my grandmother also call me Nuria no need for formalities here" she said 
"It sounds delicious I should go before the kids realise I've left but if you need any help let me know" he said giving me one last kiss before leaving again 
Luckily the food didn't take too long to cook so I set the table before going outside to get everyone to come in for dinner. Pablo looked very happy to see me as it meant he could finally stop running around and sit down for a minute. We both went to the table together and everyone started to eat. The dinner itself was rather uneventful as everyone just sat eating quietly only making small conversation but when everyone was done it turned into a madhouse again. To create some calm my dad gave the kids some ice cream and put the tv on while the rest of us went to sit outside so we could talk in peace. 
My dad of course had to ask Pablo a few questions because as much as he knows and trusts Pablo he judges anyone I date and has to make sure they have good intentions. Once the interrogating was over we had a really nice conversation about many different things. My parents shared some embarrassing stories from when I was younger which Pablo will definitely make fun of me for later but for now he just chuckled slightly. I wasn't the only one that got embarrassed though as my dad shared some lovely stories from training which I will definitely use when Pablo makes fun of the silly things I did as a kid. There was a lot of laughs between all of us until my mum asked a question that nearly made me spit out my water.
"So Pablo when are you going to ask her to marry you?" She asked 
"Mum" I warned 
"It's ok love" Pablo staid grabbing hold of my hand 
"I can't give you a specific date but definitely one day I'll ask her to marry me I can’t imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone else” he answered 
“Thats very sweet when the day comes we’ll be happy to have you as a son in law” she said 
“Thank you” he said 
Poor Pablo had really been through it tonight and I could tell he was tired so we didn’t stay much longer before I suggested we leave. Both Pablo and I said goodbye to my parents before we went back inside where my siblings tackled me when saying goodbye. They didn’t want us to leave as they wanted Pablo to stay and play with them so it’s safe to say he was a hit with the whole family. Knowing that they all like Pablo really makes me feel like I made the right choice in letting him in and giving up the quiet life I wanted for myself clearly I’m meant to live a crazy life.
Along the drive home Pablo kept telling me how much he actually enjoyed the evening and how he really felt like he fit in with my family which apparently he was worried about. It was really sweet hearing him say loads of lovely things about my family as they really mean a lot to me so to know he gets on with them this well after only a few hours together makes me happy. When we finally arrived at Pablo’s place he asked me if I wanted to stay the night which I would never say no to so we went inside and both got changed so we could get into bed. As Pablo was laying behind me with his arms around my waist I heard my phone ding so I picked it up to see a text from my mum telling me how much they all loved Pablo which put a big smile on my face. Clearly Pablo was reading my texts as I felt a kiss on my cheek before he told me to tell them that he loved them too which I did before putting my phone back down to cuddle with my partner for life.

  “Bye!”
Your goodbyes were short and dispassionate. 
A quick wave at the door with everyone still sat around the breakfast table, enjoying conversation, and having second helpings of whatever they liked most. 
It felt a little like thanking your dentist and telling him goodbye after you had him prod around in your mouth for forty minutes. 
You knew each other on another level, and it felt like there should be heartfelt hugs, but that wasn’t the relationship you had with your family.
Instead, you’d taken two bottles of water from the fridge for your drive, walked past the table and said “That was fun, guys. See you on the next one!” and hadn’t even bothered to stop by the door as a chorus of goodbyes from the table saw you out. 
Joe followed suit and it was only minutes later that you were back in the car, on the road together, on the way back to your flat.  
You recounted the morning, and Joe saw you sink into the seat like you hadn’t relaxed in weeks. 
“And?” you asked Joe, whose eyes danced between the road and you. 
“Any regrets on offering to tag along?” 
“The sand in my underwear says yes,” Joe joked, making you laugh. 
You couldn’t deny that you’d had fun, but you knew it was mostly because Joe had been there too. 
You were not going to tell him that, though. 
Obviously. 
“You’re going to have to come to one of my family get-togethers next, to teach us your family’s way of playing football,” Joe said, and he reached over to squeeze your knee before quickly pulling his hand back to grip the steering wheel. 
You felt the skin that he’d touched burn.
Joe cleared his throat loudly, and you didn’t know why it suddenly felt weird in the car, but for some reason, it did. 
In a bid to fan away the fluttery feeling in your stomach, you turned up the radio and let music fill the car to help drown out the thoughts milling around in your head. 
You tried to convince yourself that it was all figments of your own imagination, but you couldn’t even look at Joe’s hands with his fingers curled around your steering wheel. 
Tight grip. White knuckles.
Shit. 
Stop looking.
So, you sipped from your bottle of water, hummed along to the music as casually as you could, and looked out of the window at the rolling hills, thinking of what you were going to wear later for your date with Tom; the man you should be thinking about right now.
The air between the two of you remained tense, but you ignored it.
Said nothing, until after about half an hour, Joe decided against better judgement to just spit out what was on his mind. 
“Don’t go,” he suddenly said, right as you were about to gulp down a mouthful of water, making you cough and wheeze for air as some of it found its way down your windpipe.
“Shit, I’m- fuck, I’m so sorry,” Joe reached over a hand, eyes darting between you and the road, unsure what his hand would do to help you. 
You swatted it away fast as you coughed, water dripping down your chin. 
“Don’t go where?” you spoke with a constricted voice, and you used both your hands to wipe at your chin, your sleeves now spotting sizeable wet patches on either side. 
Charming. 
“I don’t- ugh…” Joe winced at himself. “I don’t think... Tom’s not, I don’t think he’s a good guy,” 
Um.
What?
You stared at Joe who now kept his eyes firmly on the road ahead of him. It was easier to get out what had been plaguing him for a second without having to look at you.
Joe went on to explain how he’d seen your neighbour earlier that week, walking into his building across the road from you, with another woman, how he had then decided to stay out of it, but that now... he felt like he had to tell you, so at least you knew. 
You know, before actually going on your first date with the literal man of your dreams. 
You remained silent all throughout Joe’s monologue and felt the urge to escape the car grow within your limbs. 
There was no chance of escape, though, obviously. 
You were going down the motorway at sixty miles per hour. 
Joe could literally go on and talk for all he was worth, and you’d just have to sit there and listen to him as he spewed things about your neighbour that you didn’t want to hear.
“People have siblings,” you reasoned immediately, all defensive. “And friends.” 
“They were making out a lot for siblings, I think,” Joe’s voice was soft, but it felt like he was making a joke, and it had anger bubbling up your throat.
“You’re overstepping.” You sternly said, because he was. 
“Sorry, I’m just trying to… I don’t know, protect you? I guess?”
You didn’t appreciate that.
“I don’t need protecting.” You huffed.
“I just thought you should know.” Joe’s eyes glanced at you, seething beside him, and he regretted even bringing it up at all.
“Okay, thanks for telling me then. Can we please talk about something else?” 
You didn’t talk about anything else. 
The rest of the drive home was silent, and as you stared out the window, you let resentment grow inside of your chest. 
Even when you tried to forgo it by trying to phone your friend, who you still hadn’t talked to, you got her voicemail. 
Again. 
Fucking bitch. 
You had to actively remind yourself you had a crush on Tom. That was who you were: a jobless, single, dumb old idiot with an orange tomcat who had feelings for her neighbour who lived opposite you and drove a range rover. You’d had those feelings for ages and they were a part of you now. 
But then Joe moved into your flat and had the audacity to just go ahead and change all of that? 
You realised your anger was mostly aimed at yourself, which in turn only angered you more. 
Come on! 
You’d actually bagged yourself a date with your neighbour, who was meant to be the love of your life, and now Joe was telling you that you should be careful of him? 
All kind, and sweet, and charming? 
What a dick.
Your thoughts ran rogue, and you knew the underlying feelings present, but were set on not facing them. 
Not right now. 
You had a date tonight, for fuck’s sake. With the man you’d been lusting over for months. You weren’t going to let Joe screw that up for you. 
When you pulled into your street, Joe stopped the car outside your flat. 
“Head inside, I’ll find a parking spot,”  
Ugh. 
He had to stop. 
You stomped out of the car like a grumpy teenager and slammed the door a tad too hard. 
Inside, you immediately locked yourself in the bathroom for a proper everything-shower. You made sure to wash and condition, several times, to exfoliate every inch of skin on you, and to shave every single strand of hair from the ears down. 
Because who knew who was going to be seeing what tonight, you thought. 
You weren’t one to bare all on the first date, but the way Joe had pissed you off, you almost wanted to get into Tom’s bed to prove Joe a point. 
Except, doing just that was probably only going to be proving Joe right, in this case. 
So, then the shaving became an act just for yourself, just so you’d feel smoother. 
And sexier. 
Perfect reasoning for a perfect date with the perfect man. 
It just... it was annoying you that you couldn’t remember the colour of his eyes, the way you could remember Joe’s. 
“You ruined it!” you yelled into your house as you walked from the bathroom to your bedroom after you shower. 
“What’s that?” Joe’s voice travelled from the living room where he was cradling Eddie in his arms like a baby.
“You ruined it before it even had a chance to properly kick off!” and you slammed your bedroom door shut, leaving Joe to read between lines he wasn’t sure he was even reading correctly at all. 
The piles of clothes in your bedroom took a minute to tidy up. Finding something for you to wear took even longer. 
When you eventually ventured out to head back into the bathroom to get started on your hair and make-up, you found Joe, standing in the hallway, leaning against the wall, facing your bedroom door. 
How long had he been there? 
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said anything,” Joe said when you did your best to ignore him. You strode past him, stepped back into the bathroom, and started taking random make-up products from your bag which you placed on the ledge by the mirror one by one. 
“Have the best time, yea?” he then said and reached for his jacket from the coat stand. 
“Where you going?” you hated that you asked it. 
“Pub,” was all Joe said, and neither of you said goodbye as Joe walked out the door.  
It was eight o’clock on the dot when the doorbell rang. You’d been fanning yourself with your hands as you’d walked back and forth between the kitchen and living room for the past thirty minutes. Barefoot, because postponing putting your heels on meant you’d stand to wear them longer. 
Eddie had taken notice of your frantic movements and meowed at your loudly from up on the kitchen table, a spot he knew very well he wasn’t allowed to be. 
You were too busy trying to wave cool air onto your chest to help fade the blotches that had formed there, and unfortunately for Eddie, you didn’t have time to pick him up and nuzzle into his fur like Joe had been doing earlier. 
“Tom,” you said, smiling your sweetest smile when you opened the door to a man holding a bouquet of flowers.  
“Thomas. I go by Thomas.” 
Oh. 
Funny way to greet you... 
The problem wasn’t that his way of saying hi to you was to correct you on his name; it was the juxtaposition you immediately noticed between him and Joe. 
You remembered how Joe had corrected your friend when she had tried to call him Joseph, opting for the more informal shortened version of it. 
Tom, Thomas, however, seemed to be of a different breed. 
Strike one, spoke a voice inside your mind that you immediately tried to shush. 
He did bring you flowers, after all. 
“Oh, sorry. Thomas, hi. Come on in, I’m just finishing up,” you stepped aside and let your neighbour into your flat. Your flat, which had looked fine before but now seeing it through Thomas’s eyes, felt like a complete pigsty. 
You silently cursed at yourself for not having put your heels on before Thomas had rung your doorbell so you could’ve immediately left, and quickly dashed off into your bedroom whilst Thomas stepped foot into the living. 
“Oh, jeez,” You could hear him exclaim, and when you joined him, you were met with Eddie who seemed to have doubled in size and was glaring at your neighbour. 
Thick tail shaking high up above his arched back and with ears flattened back against his head, he looked just about ready to pounce. 
“Eddie!” You tried, but Thomas let out a nervous laugh. 
“Cats tend not to like me much. Doesn’t help that I’m allergic,” 
Shit.
Strike two. 
“Eddie tends to not like humans,” you justified. “Trust me, it’s not you,” you tried to convince yourself as much as you tried to convince Thomas. 
“Ready to go?” he looked like he couldn’t wait to get out of your flat. 
At the restaurant, Thomas showcased how much of a gentleman he was. He held your chair out for you to sit, got champagne for the two of you and told the waiter it was a special occasion, not revealing it was just your first date together. 
Thomas was all polished jawline, strong brow, dark hair, and he smelled divine. 
Textbook handsome in his pale blue shirt, you thought. And, he drove a fucking range rover. This man had success written all over him.
You felt like you didn’t measure up. 
Sat across the table from him, you tried to search for faults of his – just, any obvious imperfections – but just from looking at him, there weren’t any. 
You, on the other hand, had many faults, and it was easy for you to list them in your mind:  
-       Your life was shit, for one -       You left dirty laundry on the floor all the time -       Your sofa was covered in cat hair -       You barely ever flossed -       You didn’t know how to drive your own car properly -       You didn’t have a job, a pension plan or any savings left at this point -       You left rings all over your own coffee table, you didn’t own any coasters -       Your freezer hadn’t been defrosted in over a year -       You had no idea what to do with flavoured olive oils -       You unhealthily romanticized the idea of dating your neighbour  -       You had a crush on your flatmate -       Shit. -       You had a crush.  -       On your flatmate.  -       Shitting shit, shit.
You snapped back into the conversation Thomas was seemingly having with himself, because you hadn’t been listening at all. 
You looked at your glass of champagne and downed the full thing in one go. The bubbles fizzed up into your nose, and you had to hold back a sneeze. 
Thomas was talking about how he’d been plucking up the courage to ask you out for months. Hardly the right time to spray champagne all over him. 
“There was never a right time,” he said. “We kept bumping into each other, but I was scared of looking like an idiot.” 
He was saying all the correct words as you refilled your glass, tempted to just have a sip from the bottle itself, and had Joe not put the image of him making out with another girl in front of his flat earlier this week into your head, you would probably have swooned. 
“You were scared?” you gave a condescending chuckle, not believing a word of it. 
Had he seen you?  
“Well, yea,” he said, and smiled at you. You were sure it was meant to be cute, but to you, it all felt brazen. 
No, get it together, you thought. 
You reminded yourself you were at a fancy restaurant, with a sweet man, who was very handsome. So, you talked about your weekend, your dad’s birthday, your awful stepmother, and with every joke you made, Thomas didn’t laugh. At one point he even went, “I don’t get it,” and left you to explain why playing football the way your family played it was more fun than boring old regular footy. 
And then he still didn’t get it. 
When Thomas excused himself to go to the bathroom, you sighed when you tried to pour yourself another drink from an empty bottle. You’d drank all of it, and Thomas hadn’t made you laugh once. 
You squeezed your eyes shut tightly as you listened to your mind whisper: strike three.  
Was it just Joe’s words that had slowly convinced you Thomas wasn’t who you had imagined him to be? You tried to convince yourself that dating several women at once was fine; you weren’t exclusive, this was only your first date. 
But you weren’t actually fine with that. 
You tried to imagine if you would’ve liked Thomas better if Joe hadn’t told you about the other woman he’d seen him with, but the mental image of Thomas stayed the same. 
It was tainted now, and you wondered why you had ever even lusted after him to begin with. You’d been so head over heels for this guy, and for what? 
You stared helplessly at the breadbasket Thomas hadn’t touched – “Too many carbs for me, but go ahead, have some,” – and you felt your fantasy of Thomas and you living together happily ever after fading fast. 
When he came back to the table, you did the unthinkable before your mind could catch up with you. 
“I need to leave,” you were on your feet before Thomas could even get a word in. 
“Let me know how much this was, I’ll pay you back for it,” and without looking back, you marched out the door, leaving behind your dumbfounded neighbour who was left to scramble at what he had done wrong to have you walk out on him before the main course had even been served. 
Instead of going home, you headed for the pub. It wasn’t a long walk, and with the large, angry steps you were talking, heels scraping against the pavement, it took no time for you to get there.  
Walking in, the crowd was made of up families and groups of friends finishing up their Sunday roasts, as well as people stood around holding their drinks, double fisting large pints, having chats. 
It was loud inside, and you scanned the room from the doorway until you spotted him. 
There. 
By the bar. 
Pint in hand. 
Talking in a group of three. 
Actor friends, you were sure.
You beelined straight over to him, bumping into strangers’ shoulders as you went, and when you were just a few steps away, Joe saw you.
“Hey, what are you doing here? You seem–” 
You silenced him by planting your lips right onto his, arms slung around his neck with your chest pressed up against him tightly. Joe didn’t try to resist – it would have been useless anyway. You had more champagne in your system than was good for you, and you were all riled up with emotions. 
The poor boy didn’t stand a chance. 
For a second, Joe was frozen. Unsure of what was happening. But then, behind you, one of Joe’s friends took Joe’s drink out of his hand and you felt how he took hold of you, wrapping his arms around, and how he started kissing you back. 
It took a few seconds for the two of you to be making out like teenagers, and you heard people snicker beside you. 
Pulling back, you glared at him.
“Thomas is shit.” 
You kissed him again. 
“You’re shit.” 
Another kiss. 
“Honestly, such a shithead.” 
And another.
“I am,” Joe agreed, speaking into your mouth. 
“The biggest shithead.” 
Joe pulled you into him until your feet weren’t touching the floor anymore, and he felt the bar press hard into his back. You kissed roughly, passionately, in a way that would make anyone watching you uncomfortable until you had to pull back to catch your breath. 
When your feet found the floor again, you suddenly pushed back forcefully and slapped Joe against his shoulder with a flat hand. 
You were mad, still.
“What did you have to do that for?” what you accused Joe of, you weren't even sure, but your voice was so annoyed, and the frown etched deep into your face accompanied it perfectly. 
Joe fucking loved it. 
“How could I not have? You’re shit,” Joe said and was quick to pull you in for another kiss. 
“You are such a shithead.” 
And you agreed, sinking deeper into Joe’s lips as his hands found your cheeks to hold, and his hot breath caressed your face. 
“This is the weirdest kiss I’ve ever witnessed,” you heard one of Joe’s friends say, who were both still stood beside you. 
“Fuck off,” Joe spoke between kisses. 
“Yea, fuck off,” you repeated, entirely unaware of who you were speaking to, and you felt Joe smile against your mouth.  
You could both be shit. 
Could both have shitty lives, because you were convinced that they’d cancel each other out just fine.
The sudden vibration in your pocket pulled you right out of the kiss, and back into the pub you were both stood in. When you quickly checked to see who was calling you – you were kind of hoping it was Thomas, just so you could tell him to fuck off as well – you saw it was your friend, finally returning the countless calls you’d made. 
You shot your eyes up at Joe, who had also seen your phone’s display, and for a moment you contemplated not picking up. Sending her call to voicemail felt like the payback she deserved.  
“Pick up. Tell her we kissed,” Joe nudged you and smiled, holding out his hand for his friend to pass him back his drink. 
And you smiled back, because that was exactly what you wanted to do. 
“I’ll see you back at the flat in what, thirty minutes?” 
“Thirty minutes,” you repeated, all giddy and stupid when Joe winked at you as you started moving towards the exit.
“Bitch,” You answered your phone. “Guess the fuck what? I’m about to test-drive your plan B.” 
"What?!"
And you almost skipped on your way home. 
Life suddenly didn’t seem so shit anymore. 
It could only go up from here.
the end

If I Could Turn Back Time
Larissa Weems x fem!reader
A/N: Hi!! Updates should be more frequent now that I'm almost done with finals! P.S. smut is coming very soon!
Chapter 11
In the past years I had always dreaded Outreach Day. However, this year was different. For the first time in my life, I was excited. I couldn’t remember the last time I put so much effort into my appearance.
The things this woman does to me.
I met her in the town square, standing in the crowd of locals, news casters, and scattered students. I watched as she stood beside the mayor, smiling brightly at the crowd. You could practically feel her excitement.
“Alright, everyone,” she smiled. “We’ll meet back here at one for lunch! Enjoy!”
I waited for the crowd to disperse and made my way over to Larissa. “Are you ready for our…” I lowered my voice. “...lunch date?”
She giggled. “I am. I need to do something, though. I’ll meet you at the Weathervane.”
The date seemed to me like lightning. Before she even joined me, I had ordered our lunch: a classic grilled cheese for me and a tomato and pesto grilled cheese for her, accompanied by two cups of hot chocolate and a basket of fries. She was beaming when she saw me in the booth waiting for her. 
When she sat down, her legs brushed against mine. A chill went down my spine and I watched as she removed her gloves, imagining everything those long, slender fingers could do to me.
“I see you’ve already ordered,” she hummed. “Saved me a lot of indecisiveness. Thank you!”
I laughed. “Well, I’m indecisive to a fault, so I already had my order picked out, and I knew you liked the grilled cheese from last time.”
Larissa’s smile softened–but the softness brought out an affection I hadn’t seen in her before. “That’s…very thoughtful of you. Thank you, Y/N.”
For the next hour we talked about our lives. There were no awkward pauses in between conversations and the topics flowed from one to the next. 
When the time for the statue unveiling arrived, we walked side by side to the church. The Nevermore students, accompanied by marching band students from Jericho High school, were already seated. When Larissa stepped up to the podium, followed by the mayor, silence flooded the crowd. I stood there, smiling ear to ear as I watched Larissa cut the red ribbon, revealing the statue for the entire world to see.
The marching band played, the students cheered, the crowd let out a rapturous applause. It seems, however, that they were all too distracted by the ceremony, and I myself was distracted by Larissa, because in a matter of seconds the statue of Joseph Crackstone was up in flames. 
Tumblr media
Night had fallen and I stood outside of Larissa’s office, listening to the muffled sound of her shouting. The events of the day and theories as to who blew up the statue circled around the school. And, as Larissa would do, she assumed it was Wednesday Addams. I pressed my ear to the door.
“I’ve lost count of the number of angry emails…”
“I don’t have hard evidence…”
“...There are shades of gray…”
“Where you see doom, I see opportunity.”
Moments later, footsteps neared the door and I stepped aside. Wednesday Addams emerged, her face glum as ever, and she paused, glaring at me before walking past.
When I entered Larissa’s office she stood in the glow of the fireplace. Just being 20 feet from her I could feel the tension. I approached her carefully. “I’m sorry about Outreach Day.”
Larissa sighed, her hand coming to her forehead. “Why?”
“Well, I know how important it is to you,” I said, and my eyebrows scrunched together. I was taken aback by her tone. 
She moved across the room to her desk and slumped down in the chair. Opening her computer, she scoffed. “Well, it’s no matter. I should’ve expected something like this to happen with Miss Addams’ attendance.”
I rolled my eyes humorously before going to stand before her. “How do you know it’s Wednesday’s doing, Larissa?”
“I don’t–I–just–” She cut herself off with a sigh. “I just do.”
I giggled. “You make a very compelling case.” Seeing that my joke didn’t land, I dropped my smile. “...I’m sorry.”
Larissa sat there for a few moments in silence, typing away. After clicking something, she turned her attention back toward me. “She said that there are no shades of gray.”
I was confused. “What?”
“Wednesday,” Larissa reiterated. “She claimed that Normies haven’t changed their ways. That they still hate us, but cover it up with niceties. She said that history is going to repeat itself, and I told her that, if we’re able to, we can rewrite the wrongs that the Normies made. She made it entirely black and white, Y/N.”
My voice was quiet. “Larissa…” When she looked at me, I knew then that I had to tell her everything. “I’m sorry, but…whether or not Wednesday did set fire to the statue of Crackstone, I side with her on this.”
“I’m sorry?”
“She’s right,” I said. I studied the look on Larissa’s face. There was some form of disbelief–maybe even a sense of betrayal behind her eyes. “Larissa, as a history teacher, I’ve had to analyze hundreds of events and what they snowballed into.” I stepped toward her, leaning over the desk as her face displayed a hint of anger. “Joseph Crackstone and the others kidnapped Outcasts, Larissa. They burned every single one of them in that meeting house. And, even after all of this, after the United States gave Outcasts equal rights, they still haven’t addressed all of the harm done.”
“I kn–”
“No,” I said. “Let me finish. Instead of addressing these atrocities, the government threw laws out and wiped history clean of their wrongdoings. If we don’t address this, then Wednesday is right. Normies will never learn, and they will never treat Outcasts as equals. This is black and white. Either, either we erase all evidence of Normie’s oppressing Outcasts and we repeat everything, or we can educate them, address their treatment of Outcasts, and prevent the snowball from growing into an avalanche.”
Being told she was in the wrong did not suit Larissa. Her nostrils flared. “Fine.”
“Fine?” I repeated. “That’s all?”
“Yes. Fine.” She stood up and walked me to the door.
I stepped away and turned to face her. My eyes burned into hers as I craned my neck, my anger–and hers for that matter–evident. “Do you realize how ridiculous you sound? I can understand having a positive outlook on this situation, and hope for a better future, but this isn’t the way! You’re ignoring everything! As an Outcast, I think you’d want to ad–”
“As an Outcast?” she spat. “You don’t think I want change? You don’t think I want every single citizen in this town to trust us? To see us as equals? You don’t think I’ve ever been denied something because I’m an Outcast?” Her words were filled with venom as she continued. “You’re wrong! You have no idea what it’s like to have to fill out a job application and check the box that reads ‘Outcast’! Having to go about a workplace filled with Normies being wary of you! So, don’t call me ridiculous, when you have no right to as a Normie!”
My blood was boiling and I had to steady my breathing. “I don’t know? I don’t know?” I took a deep breath to gather my words. “When you offered me this teaching position, I was thrilled, however, I was dreading the decision. You told me the world needs more teachers like me. I took that into account when making my decision, because I loved my students very much. I fought tooth and nail with myself! But, in the end, it wasn’t myself who made the decision.” My voice started to shake. “Larissa, I–My boss…Larissa, I’m an Outcast!” The blood seemed to drain from her face. “That is why I am teaching here now. I didn’t choose to, I was forced to. I was–I was fired, Larissa! I was fired for being an Outcast! So don’t tell me that I don’t know what it feels like. Because I can assure you, I do.”
I turned my back toward her. At this point, I couldn’t care less about what she wanted to say. This standoff that she and I had created and drained me to my core, and if I had stayed there any longer, the tears that I wanted to keep back so much would’ve broken through.
