hii can u write smth about hector and reader being best friends bc their parents are very close friends, and him realizing that he is down bad for her after having a small talk with his mother.

Please and thank u, love ur written btw 💝

mama's boy / Héctor Fort

Summary: Héctor x best friend!reader - Héctor being a stupid little adorable idiot in love.

Warnings: censored cuss

Requested?: Yes.

"Why don't you two go out on the front porch?" your mother suddenly brings up. Though, yes, you and Héctor are seventeen now, and should be able to sit through an adult conversation with your parents and stay respectful without being antsy, everyone knows that's not true.

But still. Being asked to go out on the front porch? That can never be a good sign.

"Why?" you demand. "The weather is so gross out."

"Because Mama told you to," your father pipes in sternly. "Now, go on. You can go with Héctor. We adults are allowed to have a conversation without your ears listening."

You're about to protest further, but then Héctor, sitting next to you, gives you a little nudge. "Oh, come on. You're so disrespectful to your parents. Just come on out with me."

You frown but stand up dramatically, following him outside.

The truth is, it's embarrassing having to sit alone with a boy like Héctor.

Not because he's creepy, or not nice. No, it's because he is nice. He's nicer than every other boy you know, and you never know how to react to him.

You plop down on the porch swing with him. He starts using his long legs to swing the two of you back and forth, and you tuck your (shorter) legs up, sitting criss cross.

"It's beautiful and sunny out. What's gross about today?"

You pout a little. "So humid."

"Oh, come on, now. It's fine."

You cross your arms and stare out at the sunny view behind Héctor's house, and the bright colors make it easy to forget your grumpy mood as you ask with a soft giggle, looking to Héctor, "What do you think our parents are talking about?" When you look to Héctor, he immediately looks away from you.

But you caught the split second of his big brown eyes staring at you.

But he shrugs casually. "Probably just boring stuff."

"Do you think it could be about us?"

Héctor smiles, chuckling a bit at the question. "Maybe, but I'm not going to worry about it."

You shrug. You sure want to think about it, but since Héctor brushes it off so easily, you suppose you may as well do the same.

You sit together in silence, swinging back and forth.

And for you, this just feels like a normal, nice breezy day, sitting with a family friend.

But for Héctor, deep down inside, this feels like more.

He watches the way your eyes seem to glimmer in the sunlight. The way your hair gently tosses in the warm breeze. How the sunlight seems to light up your face. He wonders what you're thinking about as you look out. He looks at your smooth hands, sitting in your lap, and all at once, it hits him.

He blushes deep red, looking away.

She's gorgeous.

"Y/n-" he suddenly says, not knowing what to say, but knowing he has to say something.

"Yeah?" you look over casually.

"You, uh... You're... I think your- uh."

"Yeah?" you lean in expectantly.

"Your shoelace is untied. You should tie it. Don't want you to trip," he quickly comes up with.

You shrug and lean down, tying your shoe.

"Was there anything else?" you ask once you finish, looking at him again.

But then suddenly, before he can come up with some other awkward response, the screen door behind you opens, and Héctor's mama walks out. "Hey, you two," she smiles. "Héc, Y/n needs to go now with her parents. So say goodbye."

You grin, glancing to him and giving him a playful nudge. "Bye, Héc."

He rolls his eyes, but he feels his face flush. "Only my mama can call me that."

"If you say so. Héc," you say with a giggle as you stand up. You wave to him, thank his mother, and walk into the house to go to the front, where your parents will be waiting to go home.

Meanwhile, when Héctor's mother is about to go back into the house, he suddenly says, "Wait. Mama. Can... Can you sit down next to me? Just for a few minutes?"

She smiles a bit and sits down next to her son on the porch swing. "Of course." The two sit there silently for a few minutes, before Héctor's mother finally says, "So... You really like that girl, don't you?"

Héctor swallows. "I... I don't know. I guess... I guess she's just really pretty. And I've known her for so long."

His mother smiles, giving his shoulder a little pat, and teases, "Does my boy have a crush?"

Just at those words, his heart rate quickens. "Crush?! I don't know if it's a crush..."

"Sounds like it to me," she chuckles. "And it's looked like you've had one on her for quite a while now, but you're just too scared to admit it..."

"Mama..." Héctor sighs, putting his warm face in his hand.

"Yes?" she smiles.

He's quite for a few seconds, before muttering, "I think you're right..."

"About what?" she grins.

"That... Well, I don't know. I kind of... I love every single second I get to be with her. It's like I'm down bad for her. F*cking mad for this girl."

"Hey, young man," she chuckles. "Watch your tongue."

"Right," he rolls his eyes, but then comments, "But do you know what I mean? Like, what I'm saying?"

"Oh, Héctor," she chuckles. "Of course I do. Can't get her out of your mind, can you?"

Héctor seems to just flush even more at this. "I guess not..."

She smiles, patting her son's shoulder a bit as she stands up. "Well, even if you don't think so, I bet she likes you back."

"She doesn't act like it."

"Oh, come on, now. How d'you know? Girls are different than guys. She'd be a good girl for you. I mean, your mama approves of her," she adds with a chuckle.

"So, what are you saying?" Héctor asks slowly, looking up to meet his mother's eyes.

She smiles a bit as she opens the screen door to go inside. "I'm saying that you should think about asking her out on a date sometime."

And she goes back inside, leaving Héctor as a flustered mess of swarming thoughts, to think over that decision on his own.

"Hey, Y/n," Héctor says immediately when he sees you next, which is, this time, a visit at your family home, to have some dinner. It's like he's made a beeline toward you and now stands in front of you. "Dinner won't be ready right away, right?"

You shake your head slowly. "No, I reckon not. Why?"

"Could we... like, I don't know... Go to your room or something?"

You shrug and nod, leading him there. "Sure. I don't see why not." When you make it there, you sit down on the bed together. You lean back against your pillows, but Héctor sits there very stiffly. After a few seconds of silence, you say, "So... what's up?"

Suddenly he turns to you, takes your hand, and blurts, "Uh- Friday? Evening? Would you be free for me to take you out, for, like, dinner someplace?"

You stare back, eyebrows shooting up. You glance at your hands. "Like, on a date?"

Héctor feels the soft skin of your smaller hand. "Yeah... Right, like on a date."

"O- Oh... Yeah, sure... I guess so. Yeah, we can do that."

He seems to let out a long breath of relief as you ask, "Where to?"

"You choose?"

"Surprise me," you grin. "But not too fancy. Don't go overboard."

Then he mutters, "Maybe I'll just ask my mama what she thinks."

"What?" you ask with a chuckle.

"Nothing!" he blushes.

"I heard you!"

He glances away, shifting, but holds your hand tighter.

You grin and comment, "You like me a lot, don't you?"

He drags his hand over his face, clearly very embarrassed.

But even as you teasingly smile, your cheeks are heating up a bit, too. "You've always been so sweet with me... Now it makes sense. So, what, did your mama finally help you figure it out? That you like me, and I like you back?"

"You do?!" his head shoots up, his eyes shining like stars.

You grin and nod a little, but say, "You never answered my question, Héc."

He sighs, glancing away, but chuckles, "Maybe..."

You grin. "So, in other words, 'yes.'" You grin and suddenly lean in. You grin press your lips to his blazing warm red cheek and murmur close to his ear, "You've always been your mama's boy."

He just buries his face in his hands, an embarrassed, adorable, overwhelmed-with-emotions mess.

But honestly, maybe he's not so bad.

He might even be a little cute.

Period headcannon

Gavi

- Pablo has a sister so he knows about periods and understands that you won't be feeling your best overall before and during your period

- As much as he knows about periods when it comes to you it's different he used to just ignore Aurora and try not to interact with her too much but he cant do that with you and he doesn't want to as he wants to make you feel as good as he can

- To find out what to do he calls his sister who helpfully goes over all the details which Pablo hated hearing but he listened for you he even wrote some things down so he wouldn't forget anything he was supposed to do or get

- After talking to his sister he goes out and buys all sorts of things like all your favourite snacks and plenty of chocolate as well as a selection of pads and tampons which was a complete minefield to him so he just picked up a range of things and hopes for the best

- He will do pretty much anything for you when you are on your period if you finish your water he's up and refilling it for you before you can even move to do it yourself and he'll make dinner for you especially on the days when your cramps are the worst

- Once Pablo gets used to being around you when you're on your period he really is the best he always knows what will make you feel better and he's willing to cuddle anytime you want which he does when you’re not on your period but he's especially cuddly when it's your time of the month

Pedri

- Pedri isn't stupid so he knows what periods entail but his mum tells him more things he should know when he told her about your relationship so he definitely has a pretty good idea of what goes on with your body

- As much as he has some knowledge his mum made it very clear that periods are different for everyone and so he was very aware that he'd have to get used to what it was like for you and how you feel on any given day

- It doesn't take him too long to work out things like when your cramps are going to be at their worst and when you will be feeling the most sensitive he also picks up on the signs that your period is due soon so he roughly knows when to go out and get you all your favourite snacks

- Pedri is really good at dealing with whatever you throw at him for example he knows when you are angry it's nothing to do with him it's just your hormones making you act like that so you don't mean to be short with him and he understands that

- He knows exactly what to do when you are feeling certain emotions when you are angry he knows to give you some time alone when you are feeling upset he knows exactly how to comfort you as well which is usually with lots of cuddles

- Pedri always wants to keep you happy especially during your period so he’s more than happy to do whatever you need him to do that will keep you happy and make life a bit easier

Jude

- Jude quickly learns what not to do or say when you are on your period which he definitely learns the hard way

- He made the fatal mistake of calling you moody one time after you'd had a small argument which did not go well for him as it only made you more angry for a few minutes before your burst into tears all of which took Jude by surprise but after a scolding by his mum he learnt to not do that again

- From that day on he never utters the word moody ever again instead he learnt that during your period you are more fragile mentally and things that wouldn't get to you on a normal day can make you cry for hours

- To make you feel better he always gives you lots of compliments on anything that he knows you can be insecure about on a normal day he also makes sure to tell you that he loves and that he thinks you are beautiful just the way you are

- Even when you are being moody Jude just leaves you be because it never lasts long and he's found it's best if he doesn't try and help because he can never do it right so it only makes you mad at him which neither of you need

- Most months Jude gets you flowers when you are on your period as he notices that little things make you happy and it's something he can do quite easily that you always really love

Joao

- Joao is always prepared for when your period comes he keeps the bathroom stocked with the products you use and he makes sure that you have the right pain killers in the house as there are certain ones you like to take to help with cramps

- He usually has a pretty good idea of when your period is due he doesn't track it a he thinks that's weird but he is able to pick up on the pms symptoms you get which gives him a pretty good indication

- He likes to know when your period is due so that it doesn't catch him off guard as that has happened a few times and when you come home in tears after work he always thinks something bad has happened but that’s never been the case so he likes to prepare himself for the few days of heightened emotions and pain you'll be experiencing

- When he can he likes to make your favourite meals for dinner as not only does it mean you don't have to cook but having your favourite comfort foods always makes you feel better and Joao likes to be able to make your day just a little better when he can

- Another common occurrence is relaxing nights on the sofa usually by the end of the day you don't want to do much so when Joao is home you both cuddle on the sofa under a blanket together watching movies or whatever tv show you've been watching together at that time

- Joao likes to try and make you feel as happy as possible on your period everything he does is to make you happy because he knows you never feel your best during that week so if he can brighten your day in any way he will

Hector

- The first time you told Hector that you were on your period he freaked out a bit he didn't expect you just to say it and he didn't know what to do as he didn't want to do or say the wrong thing and upset you or make you mad

- He is quick to text some of his older friends who have girlfriends and ask them what he should do and after making fun of him for freaking out and acting like you were some sort of alien they told him the best things to do for you

- From then he's pretty good he knows to just read each situation as it arises if you seem down or upset then he knows to try and cheer you up but if you are getting frustrated with something he knows to just let you rant or leave you alone

- Hector will usually do pretty much everything you ask so if you want ice cream he will get you some as quickly as he possibly can even it involves going to the store to buy some, sometimes you don't even have to ask he will just greet you with your favourite chocolates when he sees you

- He will also go and buy you pads/tampons if you are out but it will take him over an hour and require many texts to you as he doesn't know what all of it means although eventually he figures it out and gets what you need

- He's always extra sweet to you when you're on your period as he definitely wouldn't want to go through that every month so he likes to treat you even more like a princess than he usually would as he thinks you deserve all the extra love

Marc

- Marc always does his best to be as supportive as possible when you're on your period whether that's giving you someone to rant to, a shoulder to cry on or just simply being there he'll do all of that just to make you feel better

- He knows that being on your period isn't much fun and he knows that the hormones mess with your self confidence so he likes to make sure you feel beautiful at all times because he really does think you're perfect so he doesn't want you thinking you are anything less than that

- Marc is always really helpful when you're on your period he always likes to bring you lunch while you're at school and if he can stay to eat with you he will and he will help you with any homework or assignments you have too as sometimes your brain just isn't working properly so he helps keep you on track and figure things out

- Another thing Marc does is give you his clothes to wear he knows that being on your period is just generally uncomfortable so you like to dress as comfy and cozy as possible and Marc is happy to facilitate that by topping up your wardrobe

- Whenever he sees you he brings another one of his hoodies for you and it's always one he's sprayed with his cologne as well because he knows you love that and you will secretly sit there and sniff anything he gives you which you think he doesn't notice but he does

- Over the week or so of your period Marc just becomes the best boyfriend he's like an angel not that he doesn't treat you well on any normal day but he's extra attentive and sweet during that time as he knows you don't need anything else on your plate

≡ MOBILE NAVIGATION ≡

This post contains key information for potential and new players. It contains our rules, character follow list, player application, and more.

RULES

General:

FightAsOne is a mature group. No one under the age of eighteen will be permitted to join. This rule will not be negotiated or lowered.

NSFW posts should always be placed under a cut. Certain things like extreme violence, anything related to sexual assault and drug use need to be tagged with an appropriate trigger warning (ex: tw: drug use, cw: body horror)

This is a closed community. Interaction with characters outside of the FightAsOne group with your in-game character blog is not allowed.

Please make sure you follow all characters on the Follow List.

Follow the group’s main blog.

Track the tags listed here. You will also be required to follow any main plot or subplot tags as they are developed.

Read through the group’s Current Plot. Make yourself aware of the group’s Previous Plots.

We regularly use Discord for plotting big events and have an ongoing, casual group chat. Ask a mod for access if you are interested in joining.

Group Relations:

Stage One: Approach the player OOC - whether through Discord or Tumblr’s various means of private communication - and attempt to resolve the issue at hand.

Stage Two: If after approaching the player in question, the matter absolutely cannot be resolved on a player-to-player basis, alert the mods for assistance. We ask that you please provide a brief summary of your issue; to create an unbiased viewpoint, we will also contact any other players involved to hear their side as well. A Discord chat will be held with the involved players and the mods in an attempt to guide the discussion to a mutually acceptable compromise. The mods will not assist in any OOC issue unless Stage One has first been attempted.

Stage Three: If a resolution cannot be made after going through the previous two steps, the mods will decide on the best possible outcome and will inform both players as to the decision. Determining factors that affect these moderated decisions will be, first and foremost, the overall benefit to the group, the group’s current plot, and the involved players’ behavior throughout the resolution process. Decisions made by the mods in these scenarios are final and will not be rehashed for future debate.

Activity:

This is an action-oriented roleplay. There will be times when you are asked to be present for a certain plot. Generally, you will be given notice weeks prior to the event you are needed for. If you are unable to be present for a plot, notify the mods ahead of time.

Should you decide to leave the group while playing a character who is heavily involved in plot related threads, you must contact those involved within your plot threads to work out a resolution prior to your unfollow notice being posted. A mod will assist if need be.

We’re extremely liberal when it comes to a lot of things, but one rule we actively enforce is our activity requirement. Only fourteen days of unannounced inactivity will be tolerated. If you are unable to post, will be busy, need to go on a temporary hiatus, or will be unavailable for any amount of time, we ask that you send a notice via ask box.

Six weeks is the maximum amount of time given for hiatuses. Regular OOC chat activity while on hiatus will be considered a sign that the hiatus is over and activity checks will resume as normal. Should a player take frequent hiatuses, they will lose one week of time for each consecutive hiatus (for example: Person A takes a six week hiatus, comes back for two weeks, and takes another hiatus; they will only get five weeks of hiatus time). This rule will apply for anyone who comes back from a hiatus and isn’t consistently active for at least six weeks.

After two weeks of unannounced inactivity, you will be placed on activity notice.

There is a two-strike policy in place here at FightAsOne. If you have been placed on activity notice a total of two separate times (equating to a month of unexplained absence), you will be asked to give up your spot due to inconsistency.

Following a week of consistent activity for a character holding either one or two activity notice strikes, an existing strike for that character will be removed.

If a player is consistently on activity notice but avoiding strikes by making single posts at the cut off time (consistently gaining and losing strikes), they will be asked to post a minimum of three in-character threads before the next check date. If the player fails to do so, they will be asked to give up their character due to inconsistent activity. This rule is designed to prevent abuse of our activity policy and prevent character camping.

We require that players be at least four weeks active on each character they play before picking up another. This is to ensure player activity as well to grant opportunity for new players to join the game.

There is a maximum of four characters per player. Only two of your characters can be Avengers.

Players who pick up a villain as a secondary character may have that character exempt from activity notice as long as their main characters remain off notice. Players may NOT pick up a villain without having some idea as to the direction they are going to take the character (whether this is with a certain character/group of characters or picking up a villain for plot purposes).

Bold/italicize memes, ooc meme replies, photos or gifsets, and text reblogs/character musing reblogs do not count as player activity. Only on dash threads, starters, writing prompt memes, or character headcanon/analysis writing prompts will count as character activity.

Have fun and don’t forget to submit plots!

☆ Character Application (example):

Character: Bucky Barnes / Winter Soldier

Faceclaim: Sebastian Stan

OOC Name (pronouns): Sarah (she/her/hers)

Age: 27

Timezone: EST

Activity Level: Daily

Pairings/Ships: Open

2 or more headcanons: (Use what’s in the character’s bio (if applicable) as the character’s canon and view the group’s previous plots for reference. Take the information and form at least 2 headcanons that you will include in your interpretation of the character.)

2 or more ambitions for the future: (We want to know what character arcs you want for your character should you be accepted. These can be goals you have in mind, a direction you want to develop the character, or a subplot you’d be interested in doing with another character.)

Writing Sample:

He sits there in the abandoned dirt and dried grass of Fort Lehigh, head in his heads, fingers gripping too-long hair as his brain swims and his stomach churns. He wants to scream. Maybe even should scream (after all, the place he could once vaguely associate with the word ‘home’ is desolate, empty – no one to hear him). He should be allowed that, right? One moment of complete, familiar abandon in reaction to years – no – decades of control. Still, he remains silent despite every image burning behind his eyelids giving him every reason not to.

He doesn’t blame Steve. Or at least he tells himself that (an endless mantra – he doesn’t, he doesn’t, he doesn’t, he doesn’t, he can’t) as he tries to grasp at older memories. Before the fall, before the war. He can’t fault Steve for wanting that back (he can), can’t fault him for doing what he thought was the right thing (he won’t). A part of him feels guilty for leaving him at the warehouse, knows what it must look like. But he can’t bear the idea of being around Steve right now. Not after he’d just tried to kill him. Not when the impulse and the thought to do so were so clear in his mind, fresh and lethal. Steve had his own problems to deal with (he refused to acknowledge that one of those problems was probably still him), he didn’t need his added to the mix.

Looking around at the weathered lodges of the camp, it was hard to imagine that he used to peddle cigarettes, magazines, and sometimes alcohol to soon-to-be soldiers. For cash, favors, or just to give himself some sense of belonging. He’d been so young. Its current decay is somehow fitting.

Heaving a sigh as his thoughts settled into the closest thing to calm he figured they’d get, he pushed himself to his feet, brushing the dirt off of his clothes. He had work to do.

How did you find out about the group?: (character advert/group promo/specific tag/recommendation/etc)

Questions/Concerns: (optional)

CURRENT PLOT

"What do you fear?"

In the aftermath of the Accords, our heroes face a time of great uncertainty. Friendships are broken, faith is shaken, and the future is unknown. In the shadows of the chaos, an organization calling itself The Hand seeks to take advantage of the crumbling foundations of society.

Their reach is ambitious, spreading from within the criminal underground and beyond, using any means necessary to achieve their goals of total infiltration and domination. How does one sustain an empire that lasts? Yearning for immortality, they seek out knowledge of rumored mystical, powerful artifacts scattered across the globe in the wake of Asgard’s destruction and the Skrull invasion.

Meanwhile, HYDRA and their leader, Sinthea Schmidt, is looking for outside means to maintain HYDRA’s subversive power within S.H.I.E.L.D. and beyond. With the two organizations working to upend the natural order– heroes, villains, and civilians alike will be caught in the maelstrom.

PHASE ONE TIMELINE

→ Events beginning June 3rd, 2018:

Jessica Jones has an explosive fallout with Luke Cage, while Kilgrave ensures the heroes of Hell’s Kitchen are not prepared to fight back against the rising tide.

Lawyers find themselves cleaning up the loose threads of the criminalization of vigilantism in the wake of the Accords.

Harlem begins to notice the rise in crime, as young men are recruited to move arms through the city. Drug dealing is also on the rise in Harlem and Hell Kitchen neighborhoods.

The X-Men notice a rise in the sudden disappearance of mutants following the fallout of the Accords. They begin to investigate and find something shocking about the missing persons.

The Daily Bugle publishes reports of exciting archaeological discoveries across the globe, the results and recognition of which arouse suspicion in the more cosmic-minded heroes.

The Guardians and Asgardians look into identifying and recovering some of the lost artifacts arising around the globe, knowing the danger of these items falling into the wrong hands.

As investigators begin to look into a mysterious series of shell companies, New York’s corporate elites- Rand, Stark, Osborn- begin to examine their own holdings.

Everything begins to coalesce as a shadowy threat emerges from the very roots of New York City itself, forcing the Avengers’ hand in retaliation.

PHASE TWO TIMELINE

→ Events beginning December 1st, 2018:

The heroes make several startling discoveries regarding the mysterious artifacts recently unearthed. They’re not the only ones interested in the power these objects hold.

The Phoenix comes home to roost, leading to a mutant reunion that’s long overdue.

Tandy Bowen gets closer to the truth of her powers.

With the knowledge of Mutant Growth Hormone hitting the streets, the X-Men begin to mobilize to liberate the missing mutants, uniting to form X-Force.

The Guardians of the Galaxy open a dimensional door they should not have.

HYDRA works to maintain their governmental vice-grip while heroes begin to take action.

PREVIOUS PLOTS & TIMELINE

DARK REIGN — MARCH 2013 - NOVEMBER 2013

Overview:

The Chitauri Invasion and subsequent unveiling of The Avengers raised many questions for the people of Earth. Questions that, in the months following the Battle of Manhattan, transformed into outcry as the devastation wrought upon New York state was put to long-term perspective. The World Security Council announced that in light of his failure to safeguard New York from alien attack, Nick Fury would step down from his executive role within S.H.I.E.L.D.: Norman Osborn would be taking over as Director. Soon after, Osborn fired Maria Hill and appointed Victoria Hand Deputy Director. With his team now in place, it was time to gain the trust of the people whilst casting doubt about the heroes that protected them. His first order of business was to recruit a group of his own “heroes” and unveil them to the world as his new Avengers team. His Avengers included such criminal maniacs as Bullseye and Daken. Vigilantism was subsequently ruled unlawful. Osborn used the Battle of Manhattan as proof that the former Avengers along with their allies were a threat. With superheroes now considered outlaws, the Dark Reign began.

Result:

Heroes were sent into hiding in order to survive. Those who chose to remain, such as Tony Stark, were openly attacked or captured and imprisoned. Osborn continued to extend his reach by ordering what he thought to be successful hits on both Hawkeye and Captain America. Several heroes were apprehended while some were added to his Dark Avengers roster, including James Barnes as Captain America. But the heroes were making progress of their own, coming together in secret to form a plan to put a stop to Osborn’s rule. Eventually, Osborn’s schemes began to unravel beneath him. Daken, recognizing the signs, began making plans to betray his superior. During a daring rescue, the imprisoned heroes were freed. With Osborn’s forces weakened, the final battle ensued and Osborn’s treachery was exposed. Norman Osborn and his Dark Avengers were defeated and sentenced. For his part in Osborn’s capture, Daken was pardoned and Maria Hill was reinstated as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

RISE OF ULTRON — FEBRUARY 2014 - AUGUST 2014

Overview:

After the shadow cast by Norman Osborn’s Dark Reign passed, our heroes enjoyed a period of relative peace. Determined to ensure that the team would never have to face a bitter divide again, Tony Stark converted his New York City Stark Tower into the Avengers Tower and invited the team to move in. It was Stark’s hope and belief that this would further unite the team against any threats that may arise. During this time, Dr. Hank Pym was formulating a plan of his own and the Ultron project was born. Pym, who had been contracted by S.H.I.E.L.D., reported his progress to the organization who in turn took possession of the Ultron robot and modified it, uploading to it a program known as Project Insight. What both S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists and Dr. Pym failed to realize was that the AI had already begun to rewrite its programming. After publicly breaking ties with the Avengers, Director Hill announced to the public that the Ultron robot was now on patrol, predicting and preventing threads in order to ensure civilians’ safety. It wasn’t until Ultron openly attacked Thor after deeming him a threat that people began to question whether or not the robot could be trusted to protect innocent lives.

Result:

The attack against one of their own forced the Avengers to publicly oppose S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Ultron project. Tensions continued to rise as the robot became more reckless with each arrest, eventually favoring killing targets instead of apprehending them. With S.H.I.E.L.D. now unable to control Ultron, the Avengers confronted the AI and managed to damage him before he made his escape. The team returned to the tower post-battle only to have it taken over and put into emergency lockdown by Ultron, who was using Tony’s lab to repair and upgrade himself. Ultron then unleashed his army of Ultron bots and a fight ensued. Many heroes were injured and Bruce Banner was killed. After a heartbreaking goodbye, the team regrouped. Now joined by Hank Pym and Cable, as well as armed with an Oscorp-patented electronic disabling device invented by Max Dillon, they launched one last attack against Ultron. While the team weakened the robot, it was Cable who dealt the final blow, sacrificing himself in the process. Ultron was defeated but not without cost.

INFINITY WAR — NOVEMBER 2014 - JUNE 2015

Overview:

During what was supposed to be an ordinary retrieval mission, the Winter Soldier stumbled across an exchange between AIM and HYDRA, acquiring a device he believed to be a weapon of mass destruction. The item was given to Jane Foster and later to Tony Stark for analysis. While the heroes attempted to discover the stone’s origins, the titan Thanos began recruiting forces in order to obtain the legendary Infinity Gems, pulling Loki into the fold through the Mind Gem’s powerful persuasion, having had already recruited the Red Skull from the voids of space he’d been transported to in 1945. Having learned of Jane Foster’s unfortunate encounter with the Aether, Thanos had Loki remove its essence from her and return it - another gem in his collection. The magnitude of the threat humanity would face was soon revealed after Tony Stark’s work on the Soul Gem attracted HYDRA’s attention, causing the Red Skull to launch a brutal attack on Avengers Tower.

Result:

After an interrogation revealed Thanos’ plans to attack Asgard and Xandar for the Infinity Gems residing there, Bucky Barnes reported to the Avengers’ liaison, Sharon Carter. Despite the tension between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the superhero community, both agreed to set their differences aside in the face of such a cosmic threat. With the Avengers’ home in ruins, Tony Stark opened the doors of his family’s mansion as new headquarters and a place to address the task at hand. After an alliance with the Guardians of the Galaxy, two teams were formed, one headed for Asgard and the other for Xandar. Team Xandar’s endeavors were completed successfully while their counterpart’s mission wrought disaster, a series of events triggering Ragnarok, half of the team’s heroes falling. Those who made it back were met with a New York City ravaged by HYDRA’s forces, its hospitals filled with superheroes, S.H.I.E.L.D. agenta, and civilians alike. The aftermath of Ragnarok found the fallen Asgardians’ souls inhabiting those of mortals while the rest of the heroes prepared for the imminent threat of Thanos’ wrath, armed with four of the six Infinity Gems. When the titan finally attacked, he faced off with Scarlet Witch, who - her powers exacerbated by the gems - managed to thwart their enemy single-handedly.

Overview:

Unbeknownst to the heroes of Earth, the destruction Thanos left in his path in his bid for absolute power decimated the planet known as Skrullos, home of the Skrull empire. In the ashes, those who remained turned to the exiled princess Veranke, whose prophecy of her people’s rise to power in the wake of their destruction seemed to be in motion. Their steady invasion spread to every sect of human society, including the superhero community, where their presence was revealed during a foray into a remote HYDRA base mounted by Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes. During the excursion, Rogers was seriously injured and - while Barnes attempted to stabilize his friend - revealed to be a Skrull. The revelation snowballed as Tony Stark was contacted and informed of the situation on-site, granting Pitt'o - Steve Rogers’ impostor - the chance to activate a Skrull virus that would wreak havoc not only on Stark but his entire network, shutting down countless security protocols (among them being S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers’), satellites, and memory banks.

In response, both S.H.I.E.L.D. and Oscorp sought to create a device capable of detecting the alien invaders. Others took a more hands-on approach, among them being Kraven - on a solo mission to hunt down street-level Skrull threats - and Maria Hill, bringing in Bucky Barnes and functioning as a two-person team to do the same on a more political sphere. However, any cohesion between the two major organizations was short-lived, falling to disarray as both S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers blamed the other for lack of progress, neither willing to admit to their own faults and shortcomings.

With the threat spreading to less Earthly places, Loki and Muninn embarked on a quest to discover the identity of the Skrull’s leader. While they learn that the queen, Veranke, has been posing as Sif of Asgard from the start, the Skrulls - with disorder seeded and agents in place hindering the progress of detection technology - began invading in full force, launching an attack on the Triskelion and claiming it as their base of operations.

Result:

With their resources, communications, and means of protection and aid cut away, the remaining Avengers took shelter within Fury’s Memorial base in D.C. in an effort to regroup. S.H.I.E.L.D. fled in a similar vein, taking up camp in the hidden barbershop base in Midtown Manhattan. The Skrulls, using their media connections, broadcast pleas from various outlets, including using an apparently held-hostage Harry Osborn as a means to demand a cease to all resistance efforts, eventually leading up to his publicly implied, apparent death.

Having reached a breaking point, the Avengers - led by Bucky Barnes as Captain America - launched an attack to reclaim the Skrull-held Triskelion. In the effort, Antoine Triplett was able to assist both Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. forces into the building while the vicious battle outside bled onto the National Mall. With the aid of Steve Rogers - alive and escaped from Skrull captivity along with other heroes - Barnes was able to track a defeated and wounded Veranke to an unfinished apartment complex, killing her and bringing an end to the Skrulls’ oppression.

EXTREMIS — FEBRUARY 2016 - AUGUST 2016

Overview:

After the digital corruption at the hands of the Skrulls during Secret Invasion, Stark Industries announced that the Stark Network is back online with advanced security measures. To rebuild his company’s reputation, Tony Stark took responsibility of its direction and announced the Starkdynamics event in Tokyo - an international think-tank comprising of a global consortium of brilliant people given a year to come up with a paradigm shifting concept. After 15 years of ostracism, representatives of Oscorp were allowed to attend the event as a goodwill gesture purely on the basis that the company is under new management as well as the good work they did during the Invasion.

While several companies showcased their work and research, Stark delivered a keynote speech announcing the commencement of Project Epsilon with the procurement of Extremis which harnesses the bioelectrical potential to hack and upgrade the human repair center, with the prospect of accelerated healing, boosted immune system and new organ generation - unbeknownst to the crowd, his personal goals for the project being to heal himself of the shrapnel injuries his sustained that made him dependent upon his arc reactor technology. Harry Osborn - in a similar vain - seeing the potential for Extremis to cure his inherited, terminal disease, approached the Avenger with the offer of collaboration. Despite tensions, the two came to an agreement. They each selected the best minds they know to aid them in their research, one being Osborn’s pick - Jemma Simmons, who - on Maria Hill’s orders - uses the offer to gather intel for S.H.I.E.L.D..

Despite initial difficulty (and side-research requested by Stark of Reed Richards, exploring the potential of Extremis to unlock the key to the Super-Soldier Serum given to Steve Rogers), the team made a breakthrough. To celebrate, Osborn and Stark hosted a Casino Royale event, the winnings to be donated to charitable cause Citizens’ Heroes. Despite the festive atmosphere attended by S.H.I.E.L.D. agent and Avenger alike, Bruce Banner confronted Stark about the direction he’d taken the Extremis project, their argument turning heated and provoking a Hulk incident. Though S.H.I.E.L.D. attempted to quell the situation and the Avengers assisted in clean-up, the incident became a PR nightmare. Banner reached out to Bucky Barnes to confirm his departure from the Avengers, and not long after, Stark did the same.

Result:

With newfound single-minded focus on his work, Stark discovered Oscorp files of questionable content, including connections to the Ravencroft Institute’s dabblings in human experimentation and schematics on patented Stark Industries technology. The discovery brought about a full breakdown of communication between the two CEOs as Stark began shutting Osborn out. In the following weeks, Stark staged a hackathon, hiring Yelena Belova to retrieve the Extremis sample from Oscorp’s Brooklyn lab. Osborn, panicked, alerted both S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers to the theft, leading to a conflict of jurisdiction between Sharon Carter and Bucky Barnes and hindering the search for the sample.

Upon the loss of Oscorp’s AI, K.A.R.I., to the stalwart defense of J.A.R.V.I.S. following Osborn’s attempt at forcing a retrieval of the stolen data from Stark’s servers, Osborn’s health rapidly deteriorated. This process once more ushered in the Green Goblin, who carried out several attacks against Stark Industries’ facilities, leaving almost a hundred casualties in their wake. During another of the Goblin’s attacks - the now unused Avengers Mansion - the two clash, leaving Stark severely wounded, his arc reactor destroyed, and - if not for the assistance of Loki, who had his own grudges against the Goblin - left for dead.

Delivered to the Baxter Building and with Extremis administered, Stark learned the Goblin’s true identity. After a brief encounter with Bucky Barnes, the Goblin fled for Avengers Tower, laying waste to Stark’s suite. Barnes, having received the programmed distress signal, arrived too late, met only with a dejected Tony Stark amidst the ruins of personal belongings and technology. What should have been a welfare check between teammates turned into an embittered dispute, months of mutual frustrations coming to a head as the two Avengers clash - breaking bones and trust. With the knowledge that the missing Extremis sample had been given to the wayward Avenger, Barnes reported to Sharon Carter and - with Stark and Osborn battling it out over Manhattan - the two sent their forces for aerial and ground support. The battle between the two enhanced corporate moguls ended in a destructive stalemate over the East River, with both participants plunging into the depths below as lower Manhattan was thrown into darkness at the hands of an explosive EMP burst, set off by the Goblin in one final act of vengeance.

CIVIL WAR — AUGUST 2016 - AUGUST 2017

Overview:

As New York City began to recover from the disastrous outcome of the brawl between Iron Man and the Green Goblin, the United Nations World Security Council resolved to take necessary action to counter the rising tide of an increasingly unaccountable enhanced vigilante community. With immense pressure placed upon S.H.I.E.L.D. to direct the momentum of such a measure, a hearing was held in Washington D.C. with Maria Hill and Sharon Carter - from it, the Agreement Concerning Cooperation, Oversight and Registration of Discovered Superhumans (Accords) were soon subject to a first draft. Tony Stark was the first Avenger to view it, and - in the aftermath of Extremis - became its first supporter.

When the Accords were revealed to the public, they were met with an array of tension among civilians, heroes, and vigilantes alike. As a facility to hold those in direct opposition of the new law was revealed on Hart Island, protests began to spark. Heavy hitters such as Steve Rogers took their disagreements to the UN General Assembly, while the rest of the Avengers met among themselves to discuss their course of action only to find themselves on opposite sides of a fence. When the final day arrived, in a gesture of good will, the World Security Council’s Alexander Pierce, with support from Director Maria Hill and Deputy Director Sharon Carter, offered a ceremonial signing of the Accords on S.H.I.E.L.D.‘s Iliad Helicarrier to Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes.

With inside string-pulling from HYDRA’s Jack Rollins and Grant Ward, what the public was led to believe was a bureaucratic olive branch spiraled into a terrorist attack as the Helicarrier crashed into Liberty Island. With the Iliad’s black box released to the public, both Barnes and Rogers were implicated in the attack and forced underground. Matters only worsened when, during the memorial service for the fallen S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, Alexander Pierce was assassinated and all evidence pointed to Barnes being the one responsible. It was enough to sway public opinion, and registration becomes mandatory for all enhanced individuals.

After a disastrous scrap between a S.H.I.E.L.D. S.T.R.I.K.E. team and several enhanced, S.H.I.E.L.D. tasked it’s science division, along with the help of Jane Foster, with the job of inventing a means of detecting such individuals in order to better protect their operatives in the field. To further assist, S.H.I.E.L.D. unveils the Vision, their newest asset and a strong proponent of the Accords.

Result:

The World Security Council, under the new direction of Gideon Malick, began implementing the detection device for offensive purposes. After learning of this decision, Jane Foster - as Thor - alerted the underground heroes of their plans. Wanda Maximoff reached out to the mutant community and other scattered fugitives of the Accords with the offer to use Cerebro as a means to combat the detection tech, and alliances were formed.

Meanwhile, those who were sent to the Hart Island Facility learn first hand of darker endeavors taking place behind the secured walls. Mistreated, experimented on, and tortured - human rights violations took place beneath the government’s nose at the hands of infiltrators from HYDRA and other seedy organizations. Rumors of these conditions leaked outside the walls and water of the prison, and from Sharon Carter and Steve Rogers to Harry Osborn and Kasper O'Connor, insider and vigilante investigations led to a massive prison break. The Hart Island prison was left in ruins, and details of what took place within were soon released to the public. The UN World Security Council announced a period of amnesty for the fugitives while the Accords were amended to ensure no such horrors would take place again.

Tattoos~Hector Fort

*GIF isn't mine. credits to the owner*

I decided to write this hector fic then start with the series. I got a few ideas but I'm still not sure who it will be about. enjoy this <3

@hectorth wrote something similar before me go check it out too 🫶🏻🫶🏻

you can request from my prompt list

this is my master list

player/drivers I write for

Hector had a day off before going back to training, so he took this as a chance to sleep in while settling in the arms of his girlfriend. However, she had other plans. She was an early bird, waking up by 8 in the morning. If she tried to move, Hector would wake up, and that's the last thing she wanted to do.

She turned in Hector's arms, resting his head on her chest and an arm draped over her waist. Sitting there for a few moments she got bored quickly. If she tries to reach over to her phone Hector will wake up.

Subconsciously, her fingers started tracing the tattoo which she adored oh so much on Hector's arm. Her fingertips moving softly on the ink on his skin. The small gesture made Hector stir a bit in his sleep. She didn't stop though. Her fingertips kept dancing on his skin until he opened his eyes and looked up at her.

"mhm buenos dias amor" he mumbled, his voice deep from the slumber he woke up from

"good morning baby" she said back, pressing a small kiss in his curls.

"how long have you been awake, why didn't you wake me up?" he asked her, sitting up a bit.

"you needed this sleep I didn't wanna disturb" she ran one hand through his curls, the other one still on his tattoos

"don't be silly, wake me up next time" he said, resting his head back on her chest

"you know I'm gonna add a tattoo for you" he said. y/n smiled and looked down at hi

"will you?" she asked, failing to hide her huge smile

"of course, and when we have kids I'll add a tattoo for them too" he looked up at her with a smile

she slapped his head gently in a joking manner, trying to hide her blushed cheeks. He chuckled softly at her actions

"I see you already planned our future have you?" she asked with sarcasm, a smile still on her face

'of course, I even planned the names of our kids, and the wedding and our house. don't worry everything is planned out" he said

y/n laughed and shook her head at him.

"tell me your plans" she urged him to speak

"well first of all if we have a girl she'll be called Lucia Alexia Fort. how does that sound?" he looked up, an excited smile on his face. Her heart melted and the joy and excitement on his face. She leaned down and pecked his lips a few times

"I like it, Lucia is such a cute name, why Alexia though?" she asked

"well just because she's a girl doesn't mean she's not gonna be playing football. Alexia just a motivation for her to be like Alexia Putellas" he said. y/n pouted at his explanation, realizing how lucky she got with her boyfriend

"aww you're so cute...I assume the boy's middle name will be Lionel right?" she asked, Hector sat up immediately and nodded his head

"yes! I'm not sure about the first name but Lionel is definitely there" he said, a wide smile spread on his face

y/n sat there, admiring how passionately Hector spoke about their future together. He kept talking about their wedding and house, while she admired every single feature in his face

"i love you" she interrupted him, making him raise his eyebrows, blood rushing into his cheeks. He dropped down on her chest, hiding his red face from her. She giggled softly, kissing the top of his head

"i love you too" he mumbled into her chest, refusing to look up at her

I saw that youre requests were open and that you’re willing to write for Hector Fort! Could you do one where it’s sort of enemies to lovers type vibe and your Marc Guiu’s sister so him and the whole team can see that there’s a lot more going on between you and hector and other feelings than just hate and when he finally realised his feelings it’s all cutesy. xx

love to hate you / Héctor Fort

Summary: Héctor x female!Guiu!reader - You and Héctor have feelings for each other. You both assume those feelings are hate.

Warnings: censored cussing, teasing that feels straight out of an 80's high school movie or something (I don't watch those; I'm just guessing how they would be)

Requested?: Indeed.

Author's Note: Thanks for requesting.💖 I hope you like it.

"You're bad," you say with a smirk as Héctor Fort walks past you, staring straight ahead, clearly trying to avoid meeting your eyes.

His jaw clenches, and you comment after him, following him down the steps off the training field, "Marc is so much better than you."

"Leave me alone!" he suddenly snaps, suddenly swiveling on his heel to face you. You stop walking abruptly, as to not completely run into him. You falter, than take a step back at how close he is. He continues, "You're so annoying. Like a fly, buzzing in my ear."

"I just like to see your dumb reactions," you taunt, but somewhere deeper within you, you don't like the way he speaks about you so off-handedly, so unimportant.

"Why do you care so much?" he snorts, but you decide to take it as a rhetoric question.

You're about to fire some lame comeback off from the top of your head, when suddenly you feel a hand on your shoulder, and your brother, Marc, appears beside you, but he's looking at Héctor. "Are you two bothering each other again?"

"She's bothering me!" Héctor snaps.

"Your very presence bothers me!"

"Hey, hey," Marc says in a soothing tone. "Calm down. My God. Listen, Y/n, I'll meet you by the car in a few minutes. Leave Héctor alone."

You cross your arms. "You talk as though he's so innocent! It's not like I jab him for no reason-"

"Y/n! Stop!" Marc complains, gently shoving you down the hall, toward the exit. "I'll be at the car in a bit."

You roll your eyes, sigh, but nod, stalking off.

When Marc gets to the car and sits down next to him, he demands, "Why do you and Héctor hate each other? What is it?"

"He's annoying," you claim.

"That's it? I mean, you guys waste so much time with each other..."

You keep your head high and claim, "I take every opportunity I can to get under his skin."

Marc just sighs, turns the key in his car, and shakes his head, apparently too defeated to try to respond. You don't care.

You love to hate Héctor.

"Get out of my way," Héctor's annoying voice snaps behind you, gently shoving you in the back. "You walk so f*cking slow."

You turn around to retort, "I can walk as fast as I want, and it's too bad if you don't like it!"

"That's a lot coming from someone who is, like, four feet tall," I comments with a smirk, giving you a hard pat on the head.

"Shut up!"

"What's that? Didn't hear you down there. Wanna repeat?" he scoffs, his smirk growing.

"I'm not too short to punch you in the face, if I so desire!" you fire back, glaring at the taller individual.

"Oh, right. I'd like to see you try," he says, shoving past you as he saunters off.

"You really think you're so hot and sexy and cool, don't you? Give me a break!" you call in anger after him.

Suddenly Fermín López slips past you with an (much more polite than Héctor's 'Get out of my way,'), "Excuse me."

You nod, quickly stepping out of the way to let him through, but a little amused smile appears on his face as he gives you a very light, playful shove, "Hot, sexy, and cool?"

You like Fermín, and you know he's just teasing, but it's rare you can be lighthearted concerning Héctor. Your jaw clenches as you blurt, "Everyone knows what I meant!"

But Fermín waves his hand as he walks off, shaking his head, and says simply, "Do we?"

That's a question you should give more thought to, but instead you call, "Yes, Fermín, we do!"

Strange things come from eavesdropping on long phone conversations.

Even though you're staying over, you know Marc thinks you can't hear him talking with one of his teammates... you're not sure which one, but you know it's not, at least, Héctor Fort.

You know that because of the comment from Marc that made your ears perk up in the first place.

"Yeah, I mean, but, this is obvious, is it not? Héctor and Y/n- it's like they feed off each other's attention. It's clear they're obsessed with each other, and neither of them just want to admit it. Or, at least, I'm sure Héctor is."

You continue listening to the conversation, but only manage to hear Marc's half of it, through the door. After a pause, he continues, "Do you see how he looks at her?... Exactly! I don't know what to think about it, because Héctor's a good friend of mine. I literally asked him about it, and he like looked all grumpy and snapped way too angrily about how he hates Y/n and she's so annoying... Yeah. They give so much attention to each other. I'm starting to think Y/n cares more about getting Héctor's attention than she does actually following me around everywhere. She gives more time to him than me. Not that I care, but it's funny... Right... Hah, you want to do that?... Yeah, right. I mean, if they really do feel that way about each other, at some point, it'll just come out, and someone will realize and confess. I don't think they're that unaware- they just don't want to admit it... Oh, alright. See you tomorrow... Bye."

Your fists clenches. You heart pounds. Your head spins.

Is it really so obvious that you and Héctor like each other, when to both of you, it seems so ridiculously obvious you hate each other?

Or at least you think you hate each other.

Right?

"If you two keep this up, I'm going to confiscate your coming-to-football-training privileges, Y/n," Marc comments as he sees you and Hector in another argument, on the sidelines of the training pitch. He's crossing his arms, but smirking teasingly. "I mean, I know you two just can't get enough of each other, but really. It's getting to be a bit much."

He reaches you two, and gently shoves Héctor out of his way, teasingly, with a little grin. Héctor complains, "Marc!" but stumbles right into you. You, too, dodder back from Hector, almost slip on the grass, but feel a hand on your wrist before you can actually fall. You're expecting Marc, and don't mind him helping you straighten yourself, but when you look up and see the greyish brown eyes of Héctor Fort looking back at you, and his hand holding your wrist, you tear it away and snap, "Héctor!" instead.

Marc snorts, and as Lamine walks over, joining Marc, he comments, "You two are helplessly in love!"

"Oh, give me a break!" you say, feeling overly upset, indignant, and embarrassed at this teasing. "Even he thinks so?"

Marc shrugs, always being the type of older brother to take any and all opportunities to tease you. "Y/n, do you realize that whenever we tease you guys about this, Héctor never seems to say anything, let alone object?"

You see Marc's and Héctor's eyes lock for a second, and Héctor turns a deep shade of red as he comment, "Ah, Marc... Don't... Don't even say that... I, uh, should get back to training-" And just like that, he's off.

You look to Marc, who shrugs. Both him and Lamine are grinning stupidly. "Just saying," Marc teases, and then walks off with Lamine.

And you're left with that to occupy your thoughts.

After about a month of deciding to avoid following Marc around to football training, because of all the weird rumors about you and Héctor, your heart aches in longing, but you'll never admit to yourself that it's longing for Héctor himself.

You'll never admit you're actually missing him.

But today, you've had enough. You want to see him again, and, clearly, that's because you think he must be deprived of the misery and making fun of that you like to invoke on him weekly.

You just keep telling yourself you might just love to hate him slightly too much.

"Oh, look who's back! Why haven't you been at training for so long?" Héctor speaks mockingly, but there's a big grin on his face to see you.

You take it as a taunting one, and answer back, "Because I'm sick of seeing your handsome f*cking face!" You're not quite sure why the word 'handsome' slipped out of your lips with the insult, but you don't bother with it.

But he does. "Handsome? First right thing you've ever said in your life."

You snort and say, "If I'm such a nuisance, then why the hell do you bother with me? Is it because I'm not so bad myself?" If this is flirting, you ignore that, because it makes more sense for it to be teasing.

"Well!" he grins wider with a chuckle, his brown eyes sparkling. "It's not my fault that the cutest girl I've ever see just has to be also the most annoying girl I've ever met, is it?"

"Cute?!" you hoot. "What on earth would make you say that?!"

You watch as Héctor gives a very quick glance around, seeing that all his teammates must've hit the locker room by now, considering the hallway is empty.

Except for you and him, of course.

"I don't know... It just dawned on me..." Suddenly his eyes soften, and he looks down into yours. Your whole body tenses when his hand slips to your waist, just holding it gently. He smirks a little, but his eyes remain tentative, and perhaps even a little unsure. "Maybe sassy girls like you are my type."

Your jaw clenches as every single little tease from Héctor zooms through your mind at lightning speed, and then all the little teases from everyone else, about how you're so into to each other. About how you're hiding emotions. All those things you've been brushing off-

Clearly Héctor has decided there's no reason to brush those off now.

You feel your face heat a little. "Why?" you blurt. "Don't you hate me?"

"Hate you? No," he responds, his eyes searching yours for... something. "No, I don't hate you. If I hate anything, it's the fact that I love you."

Your jaw drops. You heart pounds in your ears.

"I think it just... I saw you, after not seeing you for a while, and it clicked in my brain," he continues.

"O- Oh..." you stutter, before blurting again, without any thought, "Well, I love to hate you."

His eyes freeze. Stop searching. His hand leaves your waist, but it doesn't feel right. It feels like his hand slipping away, like that's taking a part of you away with him. "Oh, alright. If you want it to be that way, that's fine, too." But disappointment, and confusion floods his being. He turns on his heel, about to walk away, leave you there, after all that, accepting your foolish proclamation in resignation.

"But, uh, wait, Héctor-!" you suddenly call, rushing after him. You grab his wrist. Slip it down to hold his hand. He turns to face you, staring down at you. You blush deeply at the intense eye contact, before saying softly, with an embarrassed, shuttering breath, "But maybe I would love to love you even more."

You glance away from his eyes, feeling the intensity from them far too strongly as he breathes, "Wait, really?"

"Yeah, maybe..." you tuck a strand of hair behind your ear.

He beams so brightly, his cheeks all pink. "This is such on a whim, but I feel like there's so much we've been denying."

Sounds just like something Marc would say to me teasingly, about Héctor.

But you smile a little back.

"So, what, now you're going to be all shy?" he teases softly, his hand gently rubbing yours. "Come on, now. I know you can be all cheeky. You're going to be shy now?" But he doesn't seem to mind, as he reaches up to gently tilt your chin, so you're forced to look at him.

"Ah, stop, Héctor..." you chuckle nervously, as butterflies begin to swarm in your stomach.

"Ah, I see," he grins, apparently not intending to stop at all. "You're all tough when you get to be petty, but as soon as I do something really relational, you get all embarrassed!"

"Oh, stop!" you giggle, clutching his hand more, your feet involuntarily stepping closer to him.

"Why should I? You're kind of cute."

"Because I say so!" you grin, looking up at him with shining eyes.

"Mmm, yeah. And you know I have to listen to everything you say, huh?"

"Yeah, because-"

"Oh, stop talking, or else the moment will pass!" he suddenly interrupts. You eyebrows crease together, but immediately you understand as he leans down-

And gently pecks your lips, before pulling away, his face red.

But you cry, indignant, "Oh, come on! Not something at least a little bit more grand?!"

He opens his mouth to speak, but you stand up on your tip toes, wrapping your arms around him, and kiss him before he can get out whatever words he was going to.

And yours is a real kiss.

When you finally, in sync, pull away from each other, he murmurs, "Oh, God. Didn't I tell you I think you're cute because you're sassy?"

"Because you're into that?" you tease softly, but are still blushing deeply at the kiss.

"Yes, exactly," he grins. "Because I'm into you."
