#i need to watch the second movie before i watch the current season but i keep peaking đ
flu season
pairing: matt sturniolo x fem!reader
warnings: illness, crying, language, sickening fluff(get it?)
summary: you get the flu and donât tell matt, so he gets worried takes things into his own hands
being sick sucks. no one knew that bettter than y/n, who was currently buried under blankets on her couch in her apartment in la. this morning she woke up sweating with a pounding headache and an inability to breathe through the congestion in her nose.
she called in sick to work and stayed in bed until noon before mustering up enough strength to get up and make a cup of ramen noodles. she then settled to watch a movie on the couch, where she ended up falling asleep.
not far away, matt nervously chewed on the skin in his cheek as he stared at his phone. he had sent 5 texts to his girlfriend today, none of them having received a response.
matt knew this meant something was wrong, because usually y/n would text him a sweet âgood morningâ the second she started her day. they werenât fighting, at least that matt knew of, so of course matt was sent into a anxious spiral over the lack of responses from his girlfriend.
finally, matt ripped his eyes away from the screen, walking over to the kitchen where his two brothers were standing, giggling to each other. matt ignored them and grabbed his car keys from the counter, immediately catching the other tripletsâ attention.
âmatt, where are you going?â chris whined.
ây/nâs.â matt quickly replied, stuffing the keys into his pocket and heading for the garage. chris and nick immediately looked to each other in worry at the expression on their brotherâs face.
âis everything okay?â nick asked matt cautiously.
âi donât know, she isnât responding to any of my texts,â matt rambled, putting on his shoes. âiâm just gonna go make sure sheâs okay.â
matt rushed out the door before his brothers could say anything else. he got in his car and began driving over to y/nâs place. he chewed on his lip nervously as he drove, his anxiety only growing the longer he didnât hear from y/n.
after what seemed like hours, matt parked outside y/nâs apartment building and made his way home to her front door. he rang the doorbell immediately and stepped back to wait for her.
inside the apartment, y/n jolted awake at the sound of her doorbell ringing. her head was throbbing in pain, her throat was scratchy, and the air in her living room felt ten times colder than it was when she fell asleep. she got up from her nest on the couch and shivered, grabbing one of the blankets and wrapping it around herself.
the doorbell rang again, creating a sense of urgency as y/n tried to compose herself somewhat for whoever could be ringing her doorbell and disrupting her afternoon. she struggled to the door, messing with the lock weakly before finally swinging the door open.
ây/n,â matt sighed in relief immediately as y/n opened the door.
âmatt?â y/n croaked out in shock. heat rose to her cheeks. she hadnât invited matt over, and was unprepared for him to see her. matt and y/n had only been dating for a while, and she had never been sick around her ever. âwhat are you doing here?â
âi needed to see if you were okay. are you okay?â matt asked, his face scrunching slightly with worry once again as his eyes scanned over y/nâs pale face.
y/n didnât know if it was the shock of her boyfriend showing up to her apartment, the embarrassment she felt from her sickly look, or how miserably sick she felt, but suddenly her eyes watered and her lip trembled as she shook her head at matt.
âoh, baby,â matt whispered, stepping into the apartment and wrapping his arms around y/n.
she immediately melted into his arms, a weight on her shoulders lifted as matt locked the door behind him and held y/n in his arms in silence. tears streamed down her cheeks as she sniffled into his jacket. matt leaned down and kissed the top of her head.
âwanna sit down?â matt asked as y/nâs cries softened. y/n simply nodded, letting matt lead her back to the couch. when the sat down, matt wrapped one arm around y/n frame, letting her lean into him. âwhatâs wrong?â
âi caught the flu.â y/n sniffed, rubbing her sore eyes. âi feel like shit.â
âiâm sorry baby,â matt whispered into y/nâs hair, letting his fingertips graze up and down her arm.
âiâm sorry you have to deal with this,â y/n mumbled, suddenly shy of matt seeing her with her messy hair and in t-shirt and sweats.
âyou have nothing to be sorry about,â matt scoffed, bringing his hand to her cheek and tilting her head up to place a soft peck on her lips. as if sensing her insecurity, matt giggled âyou look so pretty right now.â
y/n blushed and leaned impossibly further into mattâs arms. âcan you stay here with me?â
âof course,â matt spoke softly, pulling y/n closer to his chest. a few minutes later, y/nâs breathing slowed, and matt looked down at her head buried in his chest.
âbabe?â matt whispered. y/n didnât respond. matt smiled at his girlfriendâs sleeping figure before reaching over to grab one of the blankets from the couch and draping it over both of their bodies. matt leaned his face down to kiss the top of y/nâs head, before letting his own eyes flutter shut.

28 and 12- Leah williamson pleaseees
I couldn't decide which photo to use.
Spend the Night
Leah x reader
warnings: suggestive
Sorry its so short.
~~~
You and the team were at Leah's flat for team bonding tonight. You were currently watching some new rom com that Kyra insisted you all needed to watch.
You scooted closer into Leah's side as her arm pulled you in. The two of you had been dating for three months now after you transferred to Arsenal at the beginning of the season.
Leah then leaned down to kiss you, smirking as you melted into the kiss.
"Oi, get a room, the two of you, I swear, you are worse than horny teenagers," Caitlin said from next to you on the couch.
"Like you can talk, Foord, McCabe is literally sitting on your lap right now," Leah quipped back.
"Quiet, this is the best part," Kyra shouted from the beanbag on the floor where she had somehow convinced Steph to lay with her.
Leah was about to say something back to Kyra again when you gave her a look and she immediately closed her mouth.
"Whipped," Caitlin whispered towards Leah. Leah just glared at her and went back to staring at you with her lovesick eyes.
You continued to watch the movie, enjoying spending time with your teammates, even if Kyra shouted at the TV every few seconds and Vic and Less wouldn't stop giggling the whole time.
"Stay with me," Leah whispered in your ear so only you could hear.
"What?"
"Spend the night," Leah whispered again. "We don't have to do anything; I just really want to sleep with you in my arms."
You melted at her words. You had stayed over a couple of times before, usually after a night out, but you were not to the point of staying at her place regularly yet. You did, however, love the feeling of falling asleep and waking up in her arms, so there was no way you were going to say no to her question.
"Of course, baby," you whispered back to her, pecking her cheek. You then placed your hand very far up her thigh as you said, "although I wouldn't mind if we did anything." Leah did not focus on the movie for the rest of the night and kicked everyone out fairly early.

a kimi story where the reader is ollieâs sister and theyâre a secret and ollie finds out please
Impromptu Meeting (Andrea Kimi Antonelli X Bearman! Reader)
Fandom: RPF/F2/F3
Requested: Clearly (AHHH I LOVE THIS)
Warnings:Â Making out, brief sex joke (if you squint)
POV: Second Person (You/your/They/them)
W.C. 1253
Summary: Maybe sharing a room wasn't a good idea...
As always, my requests are OPEN
MASTERLIST // HITLIST
~~(^Pinterest)
It was not how you imagined introducing your boyfriend to your family, let alone your brother.
You were supposed to be there to support Ollie (which you were!), and it wasnât like you were sneaking off to another garage or wearing another teamâs kit. Thankfully, Kimi had signed to Prema at the beginning of the season, so that was not something you needed to worry about.Â
When you first met Kimi through a mutual friend, he did not know your brother. Granted, you only introduced yourself by your first name, but drivers stuck with drivers. You assumed he knew that you were associated with one of the drivers. It wasnât until the middle of the Formula 2 season that Kimi finally made the connection.
You had stayed up the entire night before, catching up on assignments you had been putting off in order to spend more time with Kimi. You had traveled to the track a few days early to meet with him, and you told your family it was for a school trip. You would meet them at the track by Thursday.Â
It was currently Wednesday, and you were cuddling with Kimi in your hotel room. You may or may not be struggling to stay awake, but that was not really a problem since Kimi had done all of the promotional things he needed to do that morning. Plus, the whole team, namely one of their drivers, was not there yet, so they did not want to get too far ahead without the rest of the team.Â
You were watching some random lifetime movie on the television as you laid on Kimiâs chest. He may have been reading race strategies, but you were not going to force him to pay attention to the movie when you weren't paying attention anyway. You were more captivated with listening to his heartbeat and watching his concentration focus on the piece of paper. At one point, you moved up a little to lay your head on his shoulder, so you could look at the paper too. Despite growing up surrounded by racing, you still could not understand most of the strategies for the life of you.
âYâknow,â You broke the silence as you shifted your attention to his face. He looked down at you, his concentration being broken as soon as you moved, but he did not say anything. âI really wish I understood any of that jargon. Sometimes I wish I could read it and think âAh, yes! This will be a one-stop race and weâll pit for mediums.â I really do sometimes.â
âI thought you just liked the sport,â Kimi laughed as he set the papers to the side. âYou really donât care about the behind the scenes or the strategies. You like cars going fast, and you like the people in the cars.â
âSometimes, I really wish you didnât know me as well as you do,â You giggled as you leaned up to peck his lips. He reciprocated immediately, pulling you onto his lap as he wrapped his arms around your back to hold you to him. Your lips moved in sync for who-knows how long, and you were only broken apart by the sound of bags being dropped on the floor. Thatâs when you finally pulled apart, thinking it was Kimiâs dad or Anthoine, but no. It was Ollie with his jaw on the floor and his hand over his eyes. You moved away from Kimi and approached Ollie, but itâs not like he could see you. You approached him cautiously, reaching out your hand, âOllie, I can explain.â
To say Kimi was confused would be an understatement. He knew Ollie was going to come today, but why would you need to explain to Ollie? The Prema boys almost always shared a hotel room. He had walked in on Ollie with a few people, so why was he reacting this way when the tables were turned?
âI donât need to see this!â Ollie complained as he turned around and walked back into the hallway.Â
âOllie, wait,â You followed after him, causing Kimi to also climb out of the bed, wanting to get to the bottom of this. He grabbed a keycard just in case as he followed you both toward the stairwell and out to the back of the hotel. âOllie, please. Give me a chance to explain.â
âYou and my teammate? Really?â Ollie sighed, turning around to face you. It did not sound like a disappointed sigh, just a confused one. You could work with that. âWhy my teammate? Also, I thought you had a boyfriend!â
âI do! Itâs Kimi,â You explained as you moved to stand in front of Ollie. âItâs been Kimi this whole time. Weâve been seeing each other since Paul and I went to the FRECA race at Mugello last year but became official after Hockenheim.â
âAll this time I thought you liked Paul,â Ollie commented to himself, but it caused you to laugh. âWhat?â
âIâve been around Paul for too long,â You laughed, finally letting out a breath you had been holding. âHeâs like a brother too much.â
âHey! You already have a brother! Donât go replacing me already!â Ollie protested, and that caught Kimiâs attention. He had been hiding by the stairs, watching you two converse in the parking lot, but at that point, he could not hold back his shock.
âBrother?â He said out loud on accident, causing both of you to look at him. He never realized how similar you looked until that moment. Not identical, but now that you both stood side-by-side, looking at him, it was fairly obvious that you were siblings. âYouâre related.â
âMaybe,â You chuckled at the look on his face. Just as much, maybe more, shock than when Ollie saw you and Kimi.Â
âYeah, thatâs my younger sibling,â Ollie said as he pointed at you before brushing past you to walk up to Kimi. âI get that youâre my teammate, but if you screw this up, I will push you off the track.â
âYouâre not gonna forbid me from dating your sibling?â Kimi was confused, but he would accept it with open arms if it meant he got to stay with you.
âNo,â Ollie sighed with a smile. âIâve heard enough about how well you treat them, so Iâm not concerned. Donât make me concerned, Andrea.â
âIâll try my best,â Kimi replied back with a smile as Ollie pulled him into a hug. Having your older brotherâs approval was something you always wanted, so you smiled as well.Â
âOh, one more thing,â Ollie started as he turned to look at you, still standing in the spot you were at previously. You slowly walked over to join the two. Ollie turned from smiley to downright serious in the blink of an eye; it almost scared you. âI donât wanna walk in on you making out ever again.â
âThen, the same rule goes to you,â Kimi joked back, causing you to gape at Ollie.
âYouâre making out with people? Ew.â You jokingly pushed away from Ollie, wiping your hands on your shirt.
âYou did the same thing! Donât even try to flip this on me!â Ollie tried to defend
âI have a feeling we should not be sharing a room anymore,â Kimi trailed off to himself as he slowly started moving towards the stairwell again.
âWhatâs that supposed to mean, Andrea?â Ollie accused as Kimi took off up the stairs. âNo! Get back here! Weâre not done with this conversation!â

All the music you didnât hear: The Good Omens soundtrack is lying to you. *Part 1*
The Bonkers Meta Series part 2: Electric Boogaloo.
I so rarely get a chance to misuse my experience in classical music, but here we are. When I realized on my most recent watch-through of the series that the David Arnold score was brilliant, but also really wonky in some parts and I couldnât put my finger on why, @embracing-the-ineffable suggested I listen to the album soundtrack to compare.
And when I tell you what I found hidden in there, youâre going to need Eccles cakes...
1) The Song is the Clue
So right up top we have this banger. The 12th track on the album is the orchestral backdrop to the scene in the Job minisode where Aziraphale reveals Crowleyâs crow/goats. The duration is 2:22 (the only track with multiples on the album), and if you look at the track by itself it doesnât mean much. But the song just before it is actually from this fucking scene:
You know, the one where thereâs a song thatâs a clue to a mystery. Except Clue is capitalised, and Aziraphale pronounces it. Iâve seen guesses that this is a reference to the movie Clue, but I would put a lot of money on the fact that we are supposed to read the title of the song currently playing at that moment in the show *as a Clue*, which is super convenient, because the word Clue is capitalized in the track listing.Â
Seems like the overlords of Good Omens have a message for us :
The song is the Clue. Itâs what God wants.
Cool cool cool. WHAT SONG?
2) Symmetry in all thingsÂ
Before I straight up tell you, we have to go back and look at season 1.
Now Iâm far from the first to notice tons of parallels between the story, details and even lines in both seasons. It got me thinking that maybe there are some fun synch-up parallels between the two seasonâs soundtracks, seeing as they are both 6 episodes long. Hereâs the end of S1 and then S2
Oh thatâs a bummer, I thought to myself.Â
They donât even add up to the same number, or playtime, and neither of them is exactly 60 tracks. But do you want to hear a secret?
S2 is actually missing 3 tracks on the album.
And because there are 2 discs in S2 (cute), the numbers of the tracks start over again from 1. Remember how much God likes sevens? Check out where all the weirdness is happening in disc 2 (Iâve added the missing track listings in red to add context):
After checking each track with the show and listening side by side (for reasons that will become clear in another post) I can definitively say that there is something *very weird* going on at the end of episode 4.Â
First is track 7, Zombie dressing room, which seems to actually reach over two distinct scenes of the photo evidence in the dressing room and then Shax in hell even though it only has one title.
But *between* these two scenes we get an eerily silent wine date with Aziraphale & Crowley.
Thereâs really no music or even sound here besides the dialogue and room tone (until after the cheers), and it seems like a very intentionally silent version of a ritz date from season 1.
My best guess is that we are supposed to divide that track into two tracks of 7, before and after the date to get a second track 7. Or maybe the silent one is missing music?
The third track number 7 is the weirdest one. Itâs this scene here, when Nina parks her bike, and Aziraphale parks the car at the end of S2E4.
If you take a close listen to the music, itâs a jaunty little piece, with an oom-pah base in 3 â 4 time. The thing is, this music does not exist in any Good Omens album. Please feel free to correct me, but Iâve tried to find any part of any song that this could even be a reprise of, and I Shazammed it to be sure it wasnât anything else. This song does not exist anywhere except in this scene. (It quickly morphs into a reprise of the original theme once Nina leaves Aziraphale).
Itâs an invisible song.
So we have 3 tracks at the end of S2E4: a long one, a silent one and an invisible one. Only one of which is numbered 7, but that all fit into that place in the track listing.
Which, when we add the two extras to the original total of fifty-nine we get... sixty-one! Hey wait a minute.
How are we going to get to 62?
3) The real missing track.Â
So the real reason we had to go back to the S1 album was because it contains the missing track that God is talking about. Letâs compare the last tracks on each album.
Iâve highlighted the mismatch between the in-show music and the album in S2, which means I had to add A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square back into the S2 album because guess what, itâs not in the S2 album. Even though it plays in the show.Â
You want to know how not in the album it is? Amazon had to track it in the show as a season 1 song. They had to give Tori Amos credit for her song on Good Omens in the X-ray bonus features because thatâs how not in the album this song is.
So my fellow beings, if the song is the Clue, then Itâs what God Wants.
And if God wants a happily ever after with Aziraphale and Crowley on their own side, then by Job, I think Neil is going to give it to her.
-----------
And there's more where that came from! Part 2 coming shortly.

MAKE YOU STAY / EDDIE DIAZ
PAIRING: Dark!Eddie Diaz x Fem!Reader
SUMMARY: Your attempt to leave Eddie wonât work, because he wonât let them, or you.
WARNINGS: Obsession, guilt trip, jealousy, possessiveness, sexual content, manipulation gaslighting & entrapment.
WORDCOUNT: 2.3K Words
A/N: Happy season 7 launch!! I got inspired slightly by @megalony and her new Dark Evan series go check it out!!
Gif not mine, credits to the owner!
Life with Eddie use to be everything you could ever dream of. Whether it be slow mornings getting ready together, sharing a shower and helping Chris get ready. Or an absolute hurricane ripping through your home whilst the three of you stumble over each other to get ready after a sleep in.
No matter the time of day, you loved whatever you were doing, as long as they were by your side.
And Eddieâs protectiveness use to be just another aspect of your relationship you loved, until you opened your eyes.
It use to be small, his anger.
An incessant colleague reaching out for tips and aid in a new project, you being a senior member meaning it wasnât uncommon for people to reach out to you. You were one of the best workers at the company, well respected and loved as well as brilliant. And always willing to help someone in need.
He use to love that about you. Until it followed you home.
Chris was currently at a friends house, leaving the two of you to an inside date night, âNow on what planet would I ever sit and watch four movies with the title âDie Hardâ. You sure as hell canât die that many times.â Eddie shook his head as you refilled each of your respective glasses.
âSure you can, just ask Chimney.â You gasped before swatting Eddies arm, âBe nice! And put on our show.â The murmuring voices of your favourite characters was more than enough to lull you into his arms, content washing over you. Your ringing phone however, was ready to disturb the peace Eddie had longed for all day.
âLet me just grab this.â His hand scooped your phone up before you could, âJust get it later.â His dismissive tone made you frown, âGive me my phone, please.â You leaned over to snatch it, walking into the hallway. Eddie couldnât help but massage his temple, did you seriously chose a phone call over peace and quiet in his arms?
He hadnât noticed how often you picked up your phone, until it interrupted him. It happened often. When the two of you were cooking together, soft music and ambience long forgotten. Almost falling asleep, cuddling, and out of the blue the world was falling apart without you. Eddie thought he could handle it, you were needed, that wasnât your fault, right? But what he also couldnât handle was the secretive nature.
Why did you always walk away? Were you hiding something?
And now you were coming home later, clanging into the house at 11, or 12. Sometimes even later. âWhere were you?â Eddie stood by the door as you hung your jacket, âJesus, you scared me E.â His arms were crossed, shoulders tense as you made your way to him, a smile too wide for his liking. âWork ran late, mâ sorry.â As you walked away, his hand caught onto your wrist.
âOw, let go.â Eddies grip loosened as you retracted your arm, soothing it, âWhat is your problem?â You looked up to view a sweet smile, âNothing, just worried about you. When you didnât call, I got so scared. This world, itâs scary Y/n, you know that, especially during these times.â
Your eyes watered involuntarily at his saddened demeanour, âOh Eddie, Iâm so sorry, I shouldâve called. Thatâs my fault, forgive me?â Your arms came around his neck, before trailing down to his chest, playing with his name tag. âI forgive you, I can also think of a way you can make it up to me.â
His smile was mischievous, and intentions impure. âOh? And what would that be Mr Diaz?â His hand was heavy on your back and slithering lower by the second, âI think we have an appointment with a bed tonight.â
âI have work tomorrow, so do you.â
âCmon, for me?â His eyes were pure evil, and you were more than happy to give in, even if you were tired. Really damn tired, but he wanted you, so you should give in right? You did give him a fright. âTake me away Diaz.â
If youâd noticed the signs earlier, maybe you couldâve gotten away. His jealousy, when it did rear its head, was an ugly shade of green.
A late night, again.
Eddie had been by the door for 10, sitting for 20, pacing the kitchen and stress-eating for another 10 before he finally settled into bed. Wide awake of course. The opening of his bedroom door caused him to stir. He watched as you slowly moved around, placing your stuff away, putting your phone on charge and then changing.
He sat upright as you yelped, âEddie! You scared me, again! Why are you sitting in the dark?â His face was drained of warmth, skin cold to the touch. âWas waiting for you, again.â You frowned at his words, âBaby, you know Iâm late these days. Better for you to go to sleep than wait up.â He shook his head, burying his head into your stomach as his body relaxed. Your hands raked through his hair gently, âI think you should consider working from home.â
Your hands stopped in their tracks, working from home? The last time you worked from home was during lockdown, and youâd driven yourself half mad. âWhy is that?â Eddie glanced up at you, âYouâre barely home, Chris misses you, I miss you. Donât you want to be with us?â You took a deep breath in before smiling, âOf course I do. I- Iâll see what I can do baby.â
His hands quickly dragged you into bed, âKnew youâd understand amor.â Eddie rested his head in the crook of your neck, his hands slowly making their way underneath your shirt.
âSweetie, Iâm tried.â
âI missed you.â You relented, letting him continue. It seemed to be all you were doing these days, bending backwards and over to please him, literally.
The first time you noticed his behaviour was also when you realised you needed space. Not that heâd give it to you. A new coworker, Harry, had invited not only yourself, but your friend Aleya and Jack out to lunch.
He was a nice guy, very eager to learn and never scared by a little constructive criticism. The only problem was probably his overbearing cologne, very pungent? Intense?
Youâd also been driven to work that day, courtesy of your boyfriend. You were working shorter days now, completing about an hour or two of work at home now. It had taken some adjusting, after a few forgetful days and about a million texts from Carla with an impatient Chris at home waiting for you.
You spotted Eddies truck pull up as you wrapped up your conversation with the your three lunch goers, âAnd thatâs me, Iâll see you guys on Monday. Thank you so much for lunch!â You reached out to Aleya for a side hug, the same for Jack and a normal hug for Harry. âTell Eddie thereâll be a fire at my house later tonight, and he better bring Evan!â Jack joked as you waved him off.
Jack may or may not have a huge crush on Evan.
You hopped in, quickly chucking your purse and files into the back seat before kissing Eddie on the cheek. âHi! How was Chrisâs school?â Eddie shrugged his shoulders, âFine.â Your eyebrows furrowed at his shortness, âSomething wrong?â He turned onto the highway, knuckles tightly gripping the wheel, âYou smell like him.â
âLike who? Harry?â
âThat his name?â
You rolled your eyes, âNo, itâs actually his fatherâs, middle name Jesus. Care for some wine Eddie?â Not once, had Eddie ever been physical. But raising his voice? Oh that was fair game.
âYou think youâre funny huh? Having lunch with other guys and taking the piss outta me?â
âNothing happened baby, it was lunch. Heâs new and trying to fit in and Iâm being nice. Thereâs nothing to worry about I swear.â The silence permeated in the truck, causing the hair on your arms to raise. You hated the silent treatment wholeheartedly.
âWhatever.â
His change in demeanour could flip like a switch, you always assumed it was him putting up a front. But when Eddie showed up the next day, flowers in hand and looking his sharpest, you were forced to reevaluate. âGod I wish my boyfriend was that sweet.â Your project partner whispered as you sighed, âThatâs Eddie.â
Even your boss wanted you to go with him, âTake the day off sweetie, you deserve it.â And with a pat on the back and a million swooning interns drooling over Eddie, you were sent on your way.
âI got these for you Y/n/n.â Your favourite flowers, arranged perfectly and smelling divine. Your hands wrapped around the bouquet, âThank you Eddie, theyâre perfect.â His smile caused your heart to race, he looked amazing. The Eddie with you that day was incredible.
His infectious laughter, perfect smile and the sweet nothings he whispered into your ear. That, was the Eddie Diaz you knew and loved. A gentleman, who had eyes for only you. Which is why you couldnât help but wonder, what made him change? How was it possible to go from absolutely furious and unnecessarily jealous to an angel?
You didnât want to know, and you didnât want to stay around long enough to find out.
Maybe it was the date, or the fact that you felt as if he deserved an explanation face to face. Either way, if youâd known better, you would have made it away.
âEddie, we have to talk.â The two of you were currently sitting on the couch, favourite show playing in the background. Eddie hummed along, a slight acknowledgment to your words. âItâs, about us.â Eddie turned the volume down, your sentence piquing his interest.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âI think, we should break up.â
And with six words, Eddies entire world came crashing down in front of him. What on earth were you talking about? âWhat did you say?â The smile on Eddies face was anything but sweet or reassuring, a bad attempt at keeping his composure. âYouâve been acting, odd, to say the least.â You stood from the couch as he followed in pursuit, all the way to the kitchen.
âI feel like, all that weâre doing lately is either fighting or sleeping. Every time I come home, you have something to say. Whether itâs about my later nights, about who I was with or what Iâm doing on the phone. Itâs like I have no privacy at all. I cannot keep a single thing to myself. And if I try to? You blow up at me. I mean last week for example, I tried my hardest to not argue with you by walking away. And all you did was follow me around the house, it drove me crazy. Showing up to my workspace when I tell you I can get more done without random lunch dates. Iâm a grown adult but you treat me like a child. And if I stand up for myself Iâm cheating. It makes no sense at all Eddie. And I tried to make it work, but I feel like youâre controlling me. I even reduced my hours, because you asked. I moved in even when I wasnât ready, because you asked. I need a break.â You took a deep breath after your monologue, needing a second.
Turning towards Eddie, he stared straight at you. âI had no idea you felt that way baby. Iâm so sorry, I never meant to do any of it. I love you so much, I canât help but worry. After everything weâve been through with Shannon,â And there it was, the guilt. It was blinding, clawing its way through you. Shannon. Heâd already lost someone he loved, and Chris lost his mother. No wonder he was always to protective over you.
âHey, Iâm not leaving like Shannon okay? What happened was a tragic accident, and I promise nothing like that is going to happen again Eddie.â You immediately engulfed in a hug, his head resting against yours, âI donât want to loose you, I donât want Chris to loose you.â Eddie muttered repeatedly as you closed your eyes.
Chris walked into the room, thirsty, tired and curious, âIs something wrong?â You immediately detached yourself from Eddie, wiping away your tears, âNothings wrong sweetie, did you need something?â He nodded before turning around and walking to his room, âWeâll talk later yeah?â Eddie whispered into your ear before moving ahead.
Sniffles came from underneath Christopherâs blanket, âYou alright buddy?â Eddie asked, patting his hair down, âWater.â You watched as Eddie swiftly made his way to the kitchen whilst you sat down, âYou need anything else?â Chrisâs hand slowly lowered the blanket before smiling your way, âNo thanks mum.â
And as quickly as he spoke, he turned over to sleep again. Your eyes were probably protruding out of your head, shock filling your senses. âMum?â The word sounded foreign on your lips, but apparently comfortable enough on Chrisâs.
âHe called you mum.â Eddies voice was low, most likely as astounded as you based on the look on his face. You got up slowly, aware of the sleeping boy. You couldnât help but smile, and kiss his forehead before making your way to Eddie. âI canât believe it.â Eddies hand came up to wipe away the stray tears before pulling you in and kissing your forehead, âI can.â
âYouâre apart of this family baby, always have been.â His words seeped in as he guided you to your bed, whilst you were stuck on autopilot. Chris viewed you as a parent to him, thatâs how common you were in his life now, a constant for him to fall back on. He loved you, almost as much as you loved him. Your words werenât forgotten just swirling in your head, how the hell could you ask for a break now? With this new huge responsibility?
Eddie knew, of course he knew. He was the one encouraging Chris to call you by your new name. Because if thereâs one thing Eddie knew he needed, besides Chris?
Itâs you, and heâd do anything to make you stay.

The Dare Part 2 - Aitana Bonmati x Reader
A/N: This is a repost. 1928 words
Summary: Settling into life in London but what happens when you have to face off against Barcelona, meaning you will need to face your ex team mates and worse of all, face Aitana again.
You made it to your car when your phone pinged, it was a text from your agent.
'Chelsea are looking for a striker and want to bring you back home, Barcelona have accepted the bid as it is an unrefusable offer but ultimately it's up to you.'
Your head is spinning, what will you do? Staying in Barcelona means seeing the girl who broke your heart but leaving will mean leaving aitana and as much as you hate her right now, you still loved her.
-
Arriving in London was bittersweet, you had missed it so much but Barcelona was also home, you missed it dearly.
As for aitana, you hadn't spoken to her since the scene in the changing room, she had called and texted you non stop but that eventually died down when she realised you needed space.
You hadn't spoken much to most of your former teammates, only keeping in contact with the few that weren't aware of the bet.
You're currently almost finished your first season back at Chelsea, you were loving it. You had played most of the games and were scoring loads of goals but there was this emptiness.
That emptiness was aitana.
Even after how much she hurt you, your heart still yearned for her.
You hard tried it all to get over her, dating, one night stands but nothing worked because no one was her.
You had been keeping up with her, watching her matched, scrolling through her social media and even getting information from mapi. You spent found yourself on her contacts finger hovering over the call button, missing her voice, her presence but you couldn't bring yourself to click call.
At training is when you found out the news, Chelsea had drawn Barcelona in the Champions League semi finals meaning you would be playing your previous team and most importantly seeing aitana for the first time since you left.
You didn't now how to feel, you were anxious to see her again but as bad as it sounds you were also kind of excited, you knew you shouldn't be but you couldn't help reminisce on all those late night and days spent exploring Barcelona or having movie days.
-
It was now the day before the first leg of the semi final and as the first leg was away you were currently on the plane travelling to Barcelona.
You were sat with Guro, Erin, Sam and Millie playing board games, trying to take your mind of the inevitable situation you were going to find yourself in tomorrow night.
Your teammates sensed something must have happened when you were at Barcelona but didn't want to push you for information and instead decided to keep you busy and take your mind off the game which you were eternally grateful for.
-
It was the day of the game and your nerves are getting worse by the second, you had been bouncing your leg up and down but a stern look from maren had you instead choosing the quieter option and biting your nails.
The team were on the way to the stadium to do a pitch inspection and to start getting ready for the game meaning you were closer to seeing aitana.
As soon as you got off the bus you were glued to Erin's side, you're glad you met Erin because she always knew how to take your mind off how you were feeling.
You were walking out onto the pitch, listening to Niamh and Erin debate which colour grapes are better, green or red, when you felt eyes on you.
Trying to ignore the feeling you kept your eyes on Erin and Niamh.
You felt a tap on your shoulder, you were scared to turn around but when you did you were faced with mapi, sighing in relief you threw your arms around her, having missed the Spaniard.
She wrapped her arms around your waist and said "I missed you chica."
With a grin you cheekily replied "I missed me too."
She heard her chuckle before she picked you up and started spinning you around cause you to grip her tighter and loudly giggle"
"Maria put me down!" You screamed in between giggled but she just laughed before telling you "say you missed me too and I'll stop."
You did miss her but you didn't want to let her win so instead you chose silence, instead trying to pry her off you which made her hold tighter and spin faster.
"Ok ok I missed you too!" You said, finally giving in when you started feeling dizzy.
She set you down, grinning ear to ear before her expression suddenly changed to a more concerned look as she asked "How are you doing?"
Suddenly feeling very awkward, you knew what she was referring to and you didn't really want to talk about it but you couldn't lie to her, not when she had you back the way she did.
She was furious when she found out, berating not only aitana but the others who also were involved and you also heard from Ingrid that she's barely spoke to them, you felt slightly guilty for this but Ingrid assured you that it was all their doing.
"Not good but my teammates are great and I like London but it's not Barcelona." You said quietly, trying not to worry the Spaniard too much.
She was going to speak again but got cut off when one of her coaches shouted her over, looking over apologetically you waved her off.
"Good luck carino." She shouted, jogging off.
"Good luck Maria, you'll need it." You shouted back, you heard her booming laugh as she disappeared into the tunnel, you soon following soon after to get ready for the game.
-
Now in the tunnel to line up, you're at the back of the line, only Lauren James behind you.
You're starting at striker due to sam's injury.
Glancing over to the Barcelona line you lock eyes with Ingrid who sends you a wink, smiling back you continue look up the line, eyes stopping on the back of Aitana's head, lingering as you keep looking at her.
She must have sensed eyes on her as she turns around, your eyes locked and as cliche as it sounds, it was like the world stopped, you couldn't tear your eyes off her and you were caught up in your world.
You were broken out of it when you felt hands on your shoulders and you realised everyone was walking out, you shook your head and instead tried to focus on the match.
-
The match had ended 3-2 to Chelsea, you had scored all 3, a perfect hat trick, Mariona and Patri scoring for Barca.
You hadn't interacted with aitana at all during the match with you playing near the defence and her playing high in your half.
You were currently going around shaking hands with the Barca player, praising their game and telling them you couldn't wait for the second leg in London.
One player left to shake hands with, you purposely left her last, not sure you could even handle the interaction but you walked up to her as confidently as you could.
She looked shocked but accepted your handshake, it was indescribable how much warmth even shaking her hand brought you but you brushed it off, retracting you hand and placing them back at your side.
"Good game, excited to play you next week." You said, not missing the way her cheeks turn redder at your confession.
"Good game and great goals, don't expect the same next week." She cheekily replied, trying to play off her nervousness.
You both laughed but neither of you made a move to saying anything else, just standing looking at each other. Mouth opening like she was going to say something but nothing came out.
"Well I have to go but again good game, see you next week." You said quickly, racing off towards the tunnel.
She looked like she was going to try stop you, like she wanted to tell you something but she just nodded, watching you make your way out of sight into the tunnel.
-
Now a week later you found yourself on the bench for this match, a nasty tackle in the win again Manchester United at the weekend means Emma doesn't want to risk injuring you more and will only sub you on in necessary.
At half time the score was 1-0 Barcelona, your team weren't even playing too bad but Barcelona are Barcelona and you know how good they are, Emma made a tweak to the formation but holding off on subs, she told you if nothing had changed by the 60th minute you were to be subbed on.
60 minutes in it was now 2-0 Barca and 4-3 on aggregate in favour of them, a wonder goal from graham Hansen.
You were stripped and waiting for the ball to go out of play to be subbed in.
87 minutes in you were chasing a long ball over the top from cuthbert, you had just made it when panos came sliding in and cleaned you out, you smashed against the pitch before you heard the whistle blow for a penalty.
Only getting winded you slowly got back to your feet before getting the ball and placing it on the spot.
You felt your heartbeat increase and you looked around trying to calm yourself, you see the Barca players surrounding the referee trying to argue that it wasn't a penalty.
Your eyes fall subconsciously to aitana who is already looking at you, she gives you a small smile which you return and you feel your nerves wash away.
Eventually you're able to step up and take the penalty, opting for a short run up you hit the ball perfectly top right before running and celebrating with the Chelsea fans.
When the final whistle blows it's indescribable, the atmosphere is electric as you're jumping around and celebrating with your team.
You notice aitana sitting on the ground alone, head buried in her hands. You approach her, feeling slightly guilty that it was you who knocked her out.
You sit next to her, cautiously placing a hand on her shoulder, she raises her head slightly and you can see her bloodshot eyes and tear stained cheeks, wanting nothing more than to take the pain away from her.
She leaned into you as your arm wrapped around her shoulder, you couldn't find the right words to express what you wanted to say so you opted to silently comfort the Catalonian.
You felt her body shake as she sobbed, repeating the words "I'm sorry," you kept assuring it was fine, even if it was, even if it would never be fine, you still were doing all you could to comfort her.
You both stayed like that for a while, background noise fading as you sat with each other in silence until eventually you two were the only two people on the pitch, sitting in an empty Stamford bridge.
You broke the silence "We should probably go."
She nodded and you both headed for the changing room, when you reached yours you both bid your goodbyes but before you could fully enter she stopped you.
She looked really anxious, you waited patiently not wanting to rush her as you knew she hated being rushed.
"Umm we do not leave for 2 days so we have an off day tomorrow and I was wondering if you wanted to get coffee with me?"

say it, ditto.
pairing: non!idol!jisung x reader
genre: fluff
warnings: mentions of kissing but not an actual describing scene.
niniâs notes: wohoo another jwi drabble, rhanks to the anon who requested rhis :3
resting his head on your shoulder attempting to sleep when the lesson got too boring, knowing that youâd put your bag on your desk so the teacher wonât notice him, itâs a friends thing to do, sure.
sharing an small umbrella, clinging onto him so you wouldnât get wet and him wrapping an arm around you is just your friend taking care of you, of course.
hands brushing against while walking together, cuddling with you on your couch, sharing his lunch with you, feeding and taking care of you when you needed it, giving you heart eyes: those were things only friends did, right?
staring at your lips, just normal friends activities, yeah?
you have known jisung ever since you were young, you knew him way too well, and you also knew that he could barely hide anything from you.
but sometimes your friendship relationship would get complicated. he gave you a smile today, yes, but did he like you the same way you liked him?
you had enough with this back-and-fourth thing; with seasons passing and you acting like lovers, but never labeling anything or even talking about it, that your other friends were confused too, it was like a damn riddle and it was like trying to find the exit in a huge maze.
which is why you gathered the courage to ask him something today.
âsung,â you called him as you played with his hair, his head currently on your lap as he was watching a movie with you. well, watching might not be the word since he was playing with his phone since apparently the movie was âtoo boringâ for him.
to be honest, the movie wasnât even interesting. it was about two friends liking each other, but even though they knew it, they wouldnât confess.
âthatâs stupid,â you thought to yourself, even though the plot was sounding oddly familiar.
âhm?â he said glancing up at you and reaching to the table to put his phone down before going back to resting his head on your lap.
âdo you want somebody, ji?â you asked, eyes focusing on the movie playing in front of you, even though your mind wasnât focusing on that, you just couldnât bring yourself to look at jisung.
he bit his lip and looked away for a second. âi do.â he answered after a little while, now looking up at you again and giving you those big soft eyes, smiling when he realised you had stopped playing with his hair.
your eyes finally found his, and of course, he already looking at you.
the voices of the background characters on the movie were now starting to get fainted, the only sound jisung could hear was his jacket getting grabbed by you to pull him in and lean down to kiss him.
you got nothing to lose, after all.

Cast(s): Actress!Reader & Actor!Suna Rintarou
Wc: 0.6k
Warning(s): Mention of filming a sex scene, Suna might be a bit ooc, and this is a totally self-indulgent fic, sorry. (This is a repost)
As one of the most well-known actresses, it is your job to go from one interview to another. It's fun, you think, especially when youâre accompanied by your beautiful, beautiful co-star or your secret boyfriend, Rintarou Suna. The two of you currently are scheduled to be at WIRED's Autocomplete Interview, answering questions from the webâs most searched. It starts with your questions first, and then Suna's. Well, most questions are basic, but some of them cause you two to laugh. Like, âIs Y/N L/N a good person?â or âWhat does Rintarou Suna want?â
âOkay, this will be the last one.â Suna looks down at the board of questions in his hand. âRead it, Ms. L/N.â
You let out a single chuckle before reading the question. âWhen did Rintarou Suna and Y/N L/N,â you pause, peeling the white sticker that hides the rest of the sentence, âmeet?â
âOh, interesting.â Suna looks up to the camera. âIt wasââ
âYou donât know it.â You interrupt, grinning at him.
Your boyfriend dramatically gasps, looking at you. âYes, I do.â
âWe met for the first time at Tsumu and Samuâs twenty-second birthday party.âÂ
âNo, we didnât.â He argues.
âWe did. Tsumu was seeing someone at that time and I was one of that someoneâs closest friends. So that's why I was invited.â You explain. âBut I left early, so yeah.âÂ
A random old/new gossip from you surprises him, he couldn't help but hide his agape mouth with his palm. âWe need to talk after this.â
You wink to the camera and continue to peel the next white sticker. âWhat is Rintarou Suna and Y/N L/N movie?â
âItâs not a movie.â Suna corrects, pointing at the camera. âItâs a black comedy horror tv series called âI Know Placesâ.â
You nod, giving two thumbs up at the camera. âSeason two will be out next fall!â
âNext fall!â Suna repeats, mimicking your voice tone. âOkay, next question!â
You playfully roll your eyes and smile at how excited he sounds before peeling another sticker. âDid Rintarou Suna and Y/N L/N kiss?â
He looks down at the board, reading the question himself. âWhy do you guys search for something like this on the internet?â
You look up at your boyfriend. âDid we kiss, Rin?â
Suna looks at the camera, raising his brow. âGuys, for a horror show, we kissed a lot.âÂ
You chuckle, nudge his side. âYeah we kissed in our intimate sceneââ
âExcuse me?â He interrupts, pretending to feel offended. âMam, we didn't passionately make out before filming that scene just for you to call it âintimate sceneâ.â
You slap his arm as you bite your lower lip to stop yourself from laughing. âOkay, okay. SEX SCENE. Satisfied?â
He bows to you, a small grin plastered on his pretty face. âI really am. Thank you very much.âÂ
âOkay, last but not least.â You announce before peeling off the last sticker. âAre Rintarou Suna and Y/N L/N dating?âÂ
The two of you blankly stare at the camera for a moment before turning to look at each other. The black-haired man finally sighs, shaking his head. âMan⊠this is awkward.âÂ
âYeah,â You turn to look at the camera again. âI mean, weâre not single and happy. Thatâs all I can say.âÂ
Suna nods in agreement, throwing the board so he could wrap his arm around your shoulder. âThanks for having us! Bye!âÂ
You laugh, waving to the camera. âThanks WIRED!âÂ
âAnd cut!â The director shouts. âCan you guys sit still? We need to watch some clips first.âÂ
âSure.â You say in unison.
Suna drops his hand from your shoulder, intertwining his fingers with yours. âYour acting skill is phenomenal.âÂ
âThank you, Academy Award winner.âÂ
He smirks as he brings his other hand to place it on your nape. Leaning forward, he starts peppering kisses all over your face and your laughter immediately echoes through the studio after he kisses the sensitive part of your neck.Â
âRin, stop! Youâre tickling me.âÂ
âYes, I love you too.â
A/n: I'm sorry if you've seen this before and btw, I'm down to make the insta au version if this ain't flopping lol
I already uploaded the insta au! You can check it if you want!

Month six: Army nurse (October)
Summary: Sy is too grumpy and proud to ask for help, so you do what needs to be done.
Content Warnings: fluff, grumpy sy, bad writing idk lol APOLOGIES
Word Count: (idk Ill put this up later sorry sorry sorry)
October 4th:
âCan I doodle on your cast?â
It was Sunday. The most sacred day of the week. The weather had been getting gloomier recently, but you didnât mind in the slightest. Fall was your favourite season by far.
You and Sy were hanging on the couch, 4 hours into the Harry Potter marathon you finally convinced him to partake in.
âHmm?â He groaned sleepily
âCan I draw something on your cast?â You repeated your earlier request
âLike what?â
âI donât knooowwâŠIâm boredâ you whined
âYouâre kidding right? You nagged my damn ear off about these movies and now youâre bored?â
âWell not bored bored just, I need something else to do while weâre watching.â
Sy huffed as he ran his palm over his face and down his beard, clearly debating you request.
âOh pretty pretty please with a cherry on top?â You begged
âFine! But I better not catch you drawing a dick or some shitâ he grumbled, making you chuckle as you jumped up to get your markers.
October 10th:
'Syverson, I swear to god if you don't pipe down and eat your damn veggies Im gonna tie you down and make you.'
The man was stubborn as a damn bull, but so were you damnit.
âIs that a promise, darling?â he replied with that damn smirk of his, making you roll your eyes as you tried to hide the inevitable blush creeping up your cheeks.
âCan it and eatâ you rushed out, pointing your fork at him.
You wanted to help him. Thatâs what good friends do. Sure, some days you debated to either push him down the stairs or kiss him silly. But neither of those seemed very friendly of you, so you settled for just helping him.
It didnât seem to bad at first, but the longer that damn cast stayed on, the grumpier he got.
You understood he was a man of pride, you really did, but there really wasnât any shame in allowing you to help him from time to time, at least thatâs how you saw it, but try explaining that to captain grumpyâŠ
October 17th:
âI said I was fine didnât I?â Sy grumbled, trying to manoeuvre himself through the kitchen on his crutches.
'Would you stop acting like a damn child?' You yelled
'Then stop treating me like a damn child!'
âIm not! Iâm just trying to help!â
âI donât need your damn help! Iâm a grown man and I was doing just fine before you came alongâ
Okay, that stung.
'Fine!' Have it your way!' you huffed, 'Aika, c'mere girl' you called out, allowing Aika to walk past you and out the door before you slammed it angrily behind you.
You walked through the chilly, orange tinted streets with Aika trotting proudly beside you, glancing up at you every few seconds.
'He such an ass...' you grumbled, hugging yourself tighter as the cold fall breeze huffed passed you, helping you cool off.
Part of you had hoped having Sy back in the apartment would ease your âcrushâ or whatever it was you had going on. You spent months trying to convince yourself you were just horny and alone. Fantasising about your hot roommate while he was away was just a way of coping. Right?
Except that since Sy came home your feelings had been all over the place. You worried about him like crazy. Which kinda scared you. You were nobody to him, so why did it matter to you wether or not he ate his damn vegetables?
Every time he made a flirty comment, you thought maybe he felt it too, but then when you offered to help him, heâd get all grumpy and cold. Sometimes you just felt ridiculous for even trying.
Your internal rant got interrupted when you felt Aikaâs leash tug on your arm, bringing you to a rather abrupt halt.
âWha- Aika come on.â You called, looking back at where she was currently sitting.
For a second you wondered why she had stopped, but then you noticed something.
She was sitting right next to some run down costume store. Nothing special at first glance, but then you noticed something in the window. For $29.99 including fake stethoscope and the promise of at least 4 jaws on the floor per room you walk into; a mildly sexist, hot nurse outfit.
âWhat do you think, Aika?â You looked down at your furry companion and you swore she nodded in agreement.
You've never bought something so fast in your entire life.
October 21th:
âwhat...what are you doing? Is that one of my chopsticks?!' You shrieked as you entered the living room, only mildly horrified by what you were currently looking at.
Syverson was sitting on the couch, well, sitting wasn't exactly the proper term for it. He was damn near folded in half. His big, muscly body bend over his stretched leg with one of your chopsticks in his hand, trying to poke around his cast.
âMy foot itches,â he grumbled âCan you please just help?â
The past couple of days you tried avoiding Sy. He hadnât apologised, neither had you. You figured it was one of those things you best ignored, but as he sat there whining for your help, you couldnât help but make a snarky comment.
'Oh so, now you need my help?' you commented, rolling your eyes as you stepped closer, Aika still by your side.
You took the chopstick from him and carefully prodded around inside his cast. Sy fell back on the couch, groaning in relief.
'Little lower...just a little-Ah! Right there, sugar! Fucking hell...'
His words alone made your cheeks glow bright red, let alone the damn sounds he was making...You desperatly searched for a change of topic, when a certain scent hit your nostrils.
'Hey uh...Sy? When did u last shower?' You asked, retreating the chopstick and giving his big toe a poke. Sy propped himself up to look at you, raising his eyebrow at your comment.
âA proper shower? Must have been months.â He replied, chuckling at your grossed out face
'I've washed the important bits, don't you worry, sugar.' He winked
âJudging by this smell, I seriously doubt it.' you replied, trying to ignore yet another one of his flirty comments. Sometimes it felt like he knew what went on in your brain. Every dream, every fantasy. It felt like he saw right through you.
âIt ainât that bad.â He said, just when Aika stuck her nose near his foot, quickly retreating once she smelled his cast.
âSee that? Even our dog wonât go near it!â
Normally, Sy would have been quick with a response, but he was busy trying to ignore the way his chest fluttered when you said âour dogâ.
'You smell ripe, old man. This could be used as a fucking nuclear weapon. One whiff of this and the entire middle east would wave a white flag in a second.' you stated
'Hey, watch your mouth young lady!' Sy shot back with a raised finger.
'I could help you, if you want.' you carefully suggested
'Help me with what?' He grinned, knowing exactly what you were saying.
'Help you wash...'
'My important bits?' he teased
'Oh forget it' you groaned, turning away making Sy laugh
Before you could get too far, Sy got ahold of your wrist and tugged you back, making you sit down next to him.
âIf you really wanted to see my dick that bad, you couldâa just asked, sugarâ
'I'm just worried your dick is growing a second dick"
That actually made him chuckle. The sound made your heart soar a little and you tried to ignore it.
âWell both of my dicks are fine, thank you very muchâ
He sat up, his face mere centimeters from yours. His fingers danced along your face, brushing some stray hairs out of his way. His voice got real low and quiet when he said,
'Besides, I'm not allowed to get this cast wet.'
Your eyes grew wide, as they gazed into his devilish ones.
He was doing this on purpose. He knew how he made you feel, the effect he had on you, he knew.
It took ever fibre in your body to shake yourself out of it.
âOkay, first of all, I meant when the cast comes off and second of all youâd be wearing underwear you moronâ you stated, âand you damn well knew I meant that.â
Sy tried to hide his grin as he looked down and gave Aika a pet on her head.
âWhy do you insist on helping me so much?â He asked, rather serious all of a sudden
âBecause, wellâŠI donât know, weâre roommatesâ you mumbled,
âDoesnât mean anythingâ he said dryly
That pissed you off a bit.
âWell, it does to me.â You replied, âYour family lives far away, and I know for a fact youâre far too proud to actually ask anyone else to come and help you.â
Sy didnât interrupt you, so you continued, getting a little more riled up as you spoke.
âI live here now, wether you like it or not. It might not mean shit to you, but it means something to me. Iâm a good roommate and an even better friend. Im not gonna let you rot away. I wanna help you because Iâm a decent fucking person and itâs the bare minimum I can do.â You rambled before adding, âOh and truth be told, Sy, I figured youâd do the same for me if the roles were reversed, but Iâm strongly debating that right now.â
You donât know when exactly you got upset, but suddenly you wanted to be anywhere but here.
âIâm gonna take Aika for her walk now if you-â
âCould you please drive me to the hospital on Monday?â Sy interrupted you
âWhat?â
âMy cast comes off on Monday, Iâd appreciate it if you could drive me.â He stated again
âI uh, yeah sure. I can get a day off from work.â
âThanksâ he muttered, scratching the back of his head
And just like that, Sy had finally apologised to you.
October 23rd:
âMy colleagues are throwing a halloween party next week, you should come. Get out the house, socialise, that sorta thing?â
You were driving Sy back from the hospital, where he had finally gotten his cast removed. The doctor said he needed at least 4 weeks of physio-therapy, but he should be fine, which was a huge relief.
âNot really a big fan of parties, sugar.â He replied âplus, I aint got no custume.â
âYou have your army clothes, donât you? I could splatter some ketchup on you if you want.â You joked, making him crack a smile, showing off his fangs in the process.
âOr a vampireâŠâ you mumbled, staring at his pearly whites.
âWhat?â
âUh, n-nothing!â You replied, focussing back on the road, âSo what do you say, huh? I think a party would do you good, Captain grumpy.â
âHmmâŠwhat are you going as?â He asked, brow raised as per usual.
âIll tell you if you let me cut your hair.â You suggested
âLike hell! You ainât touching my hair, woman!â
âWhat if you just let me wash it then?â
âYou really wanna get me naked, donât you?â He joked, making you role your eyes
âI meant over the sink but whatever, dumbassâ
âFine, ill let you wash my hair if you tell me what youâre going as.â
âAnd let me cut it?!â
âOkay fine! And Ill let you cut it! Just tell me already.â
You smirked at your small victory before saying, âIâm going as a nurseâ.
Syâs eyes twinkled at the thought of you in a nurse outfit
âIll go with you if you wear it while washing my hairâ he smirked
âYouâre an actual dog, Syverson.â
October 28th:
âAre you sure you know what your doing?â Sy asked unsure
He was propped on one of your high chairs over the sink at the kitchen island. You had a pair of scissors and a bunch of hair products scattered all over the marble top.
âSure, canât be that hard, can it?â You smiled, ânow just relaxâ
You checked the temperature of the water on your hand before gentle running the tap over Syâs dark head of hair. Your free hand softly wove through his locks, nails massing into his scalp.
âOh fuckâŠâ he muttered under his breath
âToo hot?â You asked
âN-no no, sâperfect sugar. Feels nice.â
His eyes were closed and you could see the tension seep out of his body as you rinsed out his hair.
A proud smile tugged at your lips with every appreciative hum that came from him.
You studied his face carefully as you took your time washing and conditioning his hair. Not a lot was said, but you didnât mind. The silence allowed you to look at his beautiful face. Every scar, every spot, every hair. He was so gorgeous it almost hurt your eyes. Peace was a good look on him.
When his hair was all rinsed out, you gently towel-dried it, before draping the towel over his shoulders and grabbing the scissors.
Your fingers tangled through his locks as you studies his hair carefully, trying to figure out a starting point.
âAlright so, Iâll just trim up the sides a little and just shorten the general length. Sound good?â
âWhatever you say, SugarâŠâ Sy hummed, making you grin.
You were enjoying his compliant behaviour until you accidentally closed your first a bit too tight, pulling the root of his hair so hard his head yanked back a little, making Sy groan in what you presumed was pain.
âOh shit, sorry!â You rushed out, soothing his scalp gently over the sore spot.
Sy let out a yelp that turned into half a groan before it became a couch as he jumped up and faced away from you.
âI-uhâŠgotta go to the bathroom real quick, Iâll be right back.â He mumbled before walking off, pulling the towel off his shoulders and holding it against his crotchâŠ
âŠhmmâŠweird?
October 31rd:
âI just donât wanna go alone, Sy, come on! I donât know a bunch of people thereâ
You yelled from down the hall. Sy was sitting on the couch in the living room, the same spot heâd been sitting all day.
His leg had been killing him all day. You just knew it.
Ofcourse he would never tell you because first of all, he canât stand it when youâre right and second of all he didnât wanna ruin her night. If he told her, sheâll stay home and miss the party, and he didnât want that.
âYouâve been sitting on the couch all day! Itâs gonna do you good to get out of the houseâ you spoke, standing closer to him now.
He finally looked up from the tv to see you standing in your nurse costume, stethoscope hanging over your shoulders, knee high socks hugging your thighs, heels just the right heightâŠ
Itâs a shame youâre not a real nurse because Syâs was definitely experiencing some shortness of breathâŠ
âNah, sorry Sugar, but you go have funâ he said, trying his best not to sound like he was in excruciating pain âIâm gonna go take a showerâ
âA cold oneâ, he silently added.
âFine, Iâll see you later then.â You watched as he made his way to the bathroom
It was clear from the way he was walking that he wasnât doing good.
You heard him turn on the water as your rummaged through your purse, double checking if you had everything you needed.
After doing a final mirror check, you were about to walk out the door but you were stopped by a loud thud and a yell coming from the bathroom.
âSy?!â You yelled out a little panicked, but you didnât get any response
Before you could stop yourself you rushed to the bathroom and barged in, seeing Sy laying on the bathroom floor in nothing but his boxers. (A pair that looked a little familiar to you for some reason, but thatâs besides the point)
âSy, what the hell?! Are you okay??â You rushed to his side, quickly checking him for injuries
âDamn leg wonât do what I want it toâ he groaned out
âHow many painkillers have you taken today?â
âTook my last one this morningâŠmâall outâŠâ he mumbled
âSy you should have told me, I could have stopped by the pharmacy!â
âIâm a grown ma-â
âYeah yeah youâre a grown man, Iâve heard it!â You interrupted âa grown man would have made sure he had enough pain meds!â
âI have some extraâs in the cupboard for emergencies.â You said, âIâm gonna get you some and then Iâm gonna run you a bath and youâre gonna let me help you for once.â
âYou donât have to, reallyâŠâ
âOh relax, you can keep your boxers on but Iâm not letting you shower by yourself when you can barely standâ
âWhat about your party?â He asked
âWhat about it?â You replied calmly as you walked out the room to get his meds.
A good 20 minutes later the smell of pumpkin spice and cinnamon filled the room along with the calming sounds of the water.
At first he had whined about not needing a bath bomb but you just knew he secretly enjoyed being pampered as much as you loved pampering him.
You were sitting next to the tub, absentmindedly running your loofah over his muscular back when suddenly, amidst the silence, you couldnât help but let out a chuckle.
âWhatâs so funny, Sugar?â He asked, raising his brow as he stared at you.
âYou finally got me to give you a bath in the stupid costumeâŠâ

Do you have a dislike for media universes that "rewards" people for watching/reading all of it in general?
Or do you think there is one that executes that idea well?
I'm answering this 5 months late, but I'm pretty sure I still remember this ask being prompted by a post making fun of the MCU.
Do I dislike story universes that reward people for reading all of it? Not at all. I mean, I'm a fan of both Middle Earth and Star Wars, I fucking love big, big universes with plenty of stories in them. When they intersect in some small way it's a delight to me, I love those little personal winks from the author for having read their other works or recognizing the most obscure names only a nerd would know.
However, there's a difference between a little reference in a story meant for people who can connect the dots, and making something almost required reading for your enjoyment. It's the difference between an acknowledgement from the creators that you liked the setting enough to come back for a new yet familiar ride, and a company realizing they've found their cash cow and can't wait to milk it for all its got until it's dead.
And dead the cash cow will be, eventually. It's been said before that the reason why the Big Two of western comics have ceded more and more ground to manga over the years is that Spider-Man has 10 different starting points while Naruto starts with Volume#1. That's not just a funny joke. Onboarding new readers has genuinely been Marvel and DC's problem for decades, which is why it was both incredibly predictable yet shocking all the same that this is what the MCU turned itself into.
Sure, early on you could ask the audience to watch a couple movies before the big Avengers crossover, but now they've got all these TV shows on top of the movies that you have to watch in order to "catch up", and it's not even about the cool characters anymore. More and more of their fanbase is going to stop caring once the barrier of entry gets too high, and it's ridiculous to me that Marvel went this road with their movies when they know this is what happened to their comics first.
I mean, are you serious, their next big bad is Kang? I am not watching several TV shows and an Ant-Man movie that's somehow worse than the second one all to see how the currently left Avengers meet goddamn Kang the Conqueror. He's in both the TV shows and the movies, which means they're somehow giving Kang more buildup screentime than Thanos. Why? Either I've been extremely out of touch with Marvel comics or the MCU picked a wild choice to headline their next billion dollar franchise when Doctor Doom is actually available to them now and barely needs an introduction.
Sorry, got lost for a bit. Back on topic, yeah I know I know, all art right now exists under capitalism which means every setting that becomes a wider story universe is an author trying to milk their existing fanbase. Whenever a creator makes a thing that I like, and then announces they have a new thing set in the same setting as their first thing but isn't a direct sequel so they can keep gaining a new audience while keeping their existing one, I know I'm being suckered in.
Just, don't make it so blatant. And don't make it so hard. I am the exact target audience for these shenanigans and even I'm starting to feel like it's homework because it's all fucking required now.
If I, a lifelong Star Wars fan, want to watch the newest Star Wars thing, I have to see a hundred hours of other Star Wars media first. If I want to watch The Mandalorian Season 3, I can't just have seen Season 1 and 2, oh no, I have to also see The Book of Boba Fett too, because halfway through that show became The Mandalorian Season 2.5. Well I did see Boba Fett, and the combination of my dislike for turning it into required homework AND the show itself just being kinda dogshit meant I never touched season 3 of the Mandalorian. That show used to be so great because it wasn't tied down to any existing story arcs or characters, so it stood on its own and made for an amazing watch no matter how much Star Wars you've actually seen. And then it succeeded and so had to become the new spine for the entirety of Disney Star Wars afterward. Fuck. Now if I want to watch their latest show Ahsoka, I have to have seen the Clone Wars animated series AND Rebels, because the Rebels cast are in it too! I mean I did see Clone Wars and Rebels, but that still sucks!
That makes me worried now! Andor was also really fucking good and it stood on its own so hard you didn't even need to see Rogue One, the movie that introduced Cassian Andor in the first place. But now that season 1 was a success and everyone sang its praises, it certainly means season 2 is suddenly going to get real cramped with Ahsoka and Luke Skywalker and whatever guys are currently alive in its timeframe. Shit, they're probably gonna add Cal Kestis in season 2 of Andor. The Respawn Star Wars games are still doing their own thing which means it's time to connect to something else.
I hate what all this has become. It was fun to read the Silmarillion and see what kind of fuckery one family of elves got up to that eventually turned Sauron from minion to big evil eye parked next to evil mountain, but you didn't need to read all that before The Lord of the Rings. LOTR didn't assume you knew anything at all (and oh boy did Tolkien never miss an opportunity to explain shit).
Let me repeat. I am the target audience. I live for the ridiculously nerdy habit of reading things set in the same universe as other things and connecting all the dots. If /I/ feel like it's become homework, I can't imagine what the average person thinks of all this. Make it stop. Stop running everything I once loved into the ground in the name of endless profit. Star Wars was already doing this to itself before the Disney acquisition and yet it didn't feel this bad.

You sat on the couch, watching your husbandâs latest movie. He had warned you that he would be dying in this film, but it did nothing to prepare you for how brutal his death scene was. You screamed at the TV as the demon punched a hole through your soulmateâs stomach.Â
Tears swelled in your eyes as I watched his students cry for him as he gave his final speech. Your tears fell down your face as you watched the sweet, happy smile spread over his face as he saw the ghost of his mother telling him how she was proud of him.
The need to turn the movie off before you were forced to witness Kyoujuroâs final breath hit you hard, but you needed to finish the movie. You were crying along with the other actors as yor beloved slowly lowered his head as he took in his last dying breath, blood pooling around him from the large wound in his stomach.Â
You hugged your Kyou plushies closer to your chest as you continued watching each of the other hashiraâs reaction to hearing about Kyoujuroâs death. By the time the ending credits were playing, you were sobbing and holding onto your plushie for dear life.Â
Pushing your Kyoujuro blanket down off yourlap, you wrapped his hashira cape closer around your naked body. You had asked the production team if you could keep the haori as a memento of his best selling movie and thankfully they agreed. You loved wearing the cloak around the house so much. It drove Kyoujuro insane when you would wear it.
Walking into the kitchen, you grabbed some fruit to snack on while you waited for Kyoujro to come home from a recent shoot. Season two of the show he was a part of was airing soon and by popular demand, he was getting a special original episode and a televised premiere of his movie with extra scenes.
Checking the clock, you saw that it was nearly ten at night. Kyoujuro should be home soon. You left the kitchen to go to our bedroom to put some clothing on. You did not need him trying to pounce on you while wearing your prized haori.
You put on one of his hoodies that looked like his demon slayer outfit from the movie. What could you say? You would forever support your husband by buying every little bit of merch that comes out of him. You loved to support his career. You had a whole room dedicated to all his figures and posters.
A smile tilted at your face as you heard the front door to the house open and Kyoujuro tiredly announced that he was home. You stepped out of the bedroom to go greet him happily. Wrapping your arms around his neck and kissing him soundly on the lips.
 âMy hero is home.â you said, your voice a happy chirp as you referred to one of the movies you acted together in and he was your savior. It was how the two of you actually met.
Kyoujuro chuckled as he tiredly returned your kiss, wrapping his arms around your waist and hugging you gently. He missed his wife so much. Shooting all those new scenes for the upcoming show was tiresome.
 And having to refilm his death scene left a bitter taste in his mouth. He was happy that his fans wanted to see more of him, but having that fake arm shoved through his stomach for the second time was uncomfortable and the actor who played Akaza messed up the shoot three times this time when he had gotten it perfect the first time.
He arched a brow when he pulled away and took notice of your current attire. âLove, why are you wearing that?â He asked, feeling his cock stir the longer he looked at you wearing his merch. You knew what it does to him seeing you covered in his items. Especially when they draped down your body and made you seem even smaller in his eyes.
You pulled at the neck of the hoodie before giving him an innocent smile. âIt's just some of your merch. I was watching the Mugen Train before you came.â you smiled up at him and you backed up so he could see your full attire. You gave him a little spin, the hood of the jacket flaring out some with the movement. âArenât I cute?â
âBaby girl...â he said, softly under his breath, his head lowered. While he knew that you had to have cried while watching that movie. You always did this. Make herself cry while watching his movies.Â
He knew that his one in particular would make you cry hard because his character had just been introduced in the show only to be killed off in a movie. âWhy do you do this to yourself?â He asked, grabbing your arm and pulling you to his chest.
âHmm?â You hummed as you sunk into his warm enbrace. âI'm just a masochist and I think the demon is hot.â you giggled when he suddenly started to tickle me. âKyoujuro!â you squealed as his fingers assaulted your sides.Â
You tried to wriggle away, but he would not let you, his strong arms holding you in place. âIâm sorry!â you said through laughing so hard, tears were coming down your face. âI was kidding! I only looked at you the whole movie, I swear!â
Kyoujuro hummed as he continued to tickle his wife. âGood girl.â He praised, but didnât stop his seeking fingers as that danced along your sides, producing more of your melodious laughter. He truly missed you these past few weeks while he was stuck on set with the crew filming these episodes.Â
So, he was going to enjoy as much time with you as he could. âMy little fireball.â He purred as he finally stopped his attack and pressed you closer to his body, his hands smoothing over the fabric of the hoodie you wore.
You wapped your arms around his neck, leaning in to kiss him softly. âIâm not wearing anything under this hoodie.â you whispered in his ear. âI was sitting on the couch, your hashira cloak draped over my shoulders, with your blanket over my legs.âÂ
You described everything you did while he was on screen; how you touched your body â eyes closed as you listened to the sound of his voice. âDo you know how hard I ache for you when we have different sets to go to and when you have to stay late for reshoots.â you took his hand and guided it to your legs and under the hoodie where your aching and dripping cunt was. âThis much.â
His eyebrow arched when his fingertips were almost instantly drenched in your slick when he touched your throbbing pussy. âYou ache that badly, wife?â He spun you around so that you were facing the large mirror the two of you had over the couch. Pulling the hoodie up to expose your naked body, he had you hold the end of it between your teeth. âThen watch me as I fuck you tonight, my darling.â
You let out a small whimper at Kyoujuroâs lewd words as his fingers dipped inside your clenching hole. His other hand grabbed your thigh, lifting your leg to spread them apart so that you could see his thick fingers slipping in and out. You leaned your head back against his shoulder as the lewd sounds of his pleasuring you filling the living room.
His lips slid over to your ear as his deep voice rumbled yor spine as he told you to keep watch on the mirror. You had not even noticed that your eyes had closed, lost in the feelings he was stiring within you.
âKeep those pretty eyes open for me and watch as my fingers disappear within you, baby.â He sped up the thrust of his digits, plunging them in and out, the squelching noises increasing. He could tell that you were close and smiled into your neck as he immediately slowed the pace until he was shallowly touching you with the tips of his fingers, softly circling your clit. A chuckle left Kyoujuro at your whine and he bit down on your exposed neck. âWatch me then, pretty girl.â
You opened your eyes and looked at your reflection in the mirror, your face heating with embarrassment from the lewd, erotic sight.Your leg held up in the crook of his elbow while his other hand covered your pussy as his fingers thrust in and out at a leisurely pace.
 âKyou...â you pleaded, your voice a keening whine as you reached behind you to wrap your arm around his neck. âI'm watching, please?â you could feel the piece of the hoodie that was clenched in yor teeth grow damp from my saliva.
Kyoujuro glanced down at his wife, your body trembling in his hold as he pressed his hips against yours. âSuch a pretty thing when you beg.â He turned his head and pressed his lips against your forehead, kissing it softly. The sweet act betreaying the movement of his fingers as he fucked you on them.Â
âYouâre so tight and wet, my love. Just look at how your pussy is devouring my fingers. Like it canât get enough.â His eyes never left your face as he watched you witness yourself come undone by his fingers alone. âThatâs right, my beautiful wife. Cum. Cum all over daddyâs fingers.â
You bit down harder on the fabric in your mouth, probably tearing a hole in it in the process. Your body shook violently as Kyoujuro thumbed at your clit to speed up your orgasm. You felt lightheaded as you creamed on his fingers, your walls fluttering; clenching and unclenching tightly. âSo good, daddy.â your voice was still muffled by the cloth as saliva dripped out of the corners of your mouth as tears of pleasure burned at your eyes.
 You were slightly surprised when he suddenly yanked the hoodie off of your body, spinning you back around, picking you up so that my legs were wrapped around his waist, and his lips on mine.
Kyoujuro hungrily kissed his wife. He needed you so badly, but something was missing. Setting you back down on your feet, he motioned with his head to the bedroom. âGo put on my Hashira haori.â
At your confused look, he smiled. âI want to fuck you while youâre wearing my merch and what better than my one of a kind haori?â Kyoujuro gave you a light spank as he guided you in the direction of your shared room, where he knew thatâs where you stored the cloak.

Hot Chocolate
Hey Y'all I absolutely love the holidays and Christmas is my fave holiday out of the year so in honor of that I want to create some cute holiday one shots ! I hope you all enjoy this
Sierra Six X Reader
Y/N POV
Christmas was your favorite time of the year. The Magic of Christmas in New York was something that you can't describe.
The happy feeling in the air. The lights glowing in the night sky. God if you got lucky and was able to see snow. It was just pure magic.Â
You always felt happier during the season.. Most people were stressed but not you.
Being able to go buy gifts for your loved ones. Helping those in need was something that was special to you
. Gift giving was your love language just being able to see the thought and time someone put into picking out the most perfect gift.Â
This year was even more special for you. It was the first time that you were spending it with someone you truly were in love with.
Before you were either single or just not with the right person. But that chance meeting with six at a diner was something your never going to forget.Â
You both were sitting alone at the bar side when the most devilish handsome man in front of you asked if you could pass the ketchup.
Now hear me out thereâs way more to this. He didnât even look up when he asked you.Â
But when he looked up and saw the most beautiful smile and person in front of him he didnât realize how long he was actually staring at you.Â
âIs there something wrong oh god is there food stuck on my faceâ you panickedÂ
That broke the major trance he was in
âNo uh sorry mm excuse meâ He said clearing his throat. His face turning beat red
âWell good thing I donât but you doâ you said pointing to the small ketchup dot on his face.Â
His face turned blood red and he was clearly embarrassed
âIt seems to suit you you look hot with itâ You blurted out now your face was blood red from embarrassment because why would you yell that out.Â
He grabbed the napkin and wiped his face
âNow donât you turn red your also the second hottest person in here next to me obviouslyâ He said making you laugh.Â
After that the rest was history. You sat for hours just talking and after he asked you out on a proper date.
That was almost a year ago and in that year you learned so much about him.Â
What he actually did for work his past and everything. You didnât mind he only did those things to protect people.
He was kind and sweet and amazing and you were so lucky.Â
Though he always told you it was the opposite way. He never thought he would ever be so lucky to meet and fall in love with a amazing person such as yourself.
He knew so much about you even about your love for the holiday.Â
Which is why you were in such a fuss to make it so special. You were killing yourself decorating the apartment all up and even making a big deal about the most perfect tree.Â
âBabe itâs just a tree calm downâ He said laughing at you.
You were currently taking measurements and shaking them and inspecting them for fulliness.Â
You gasped out loud
âJust a tree no no you donât understand the tree is everything there is no christmas without a treeâ He just laughed at youÂ
After a couple of hours and him huffing and puffing it was cold you finally found the most perfect one.
You took it home and made him wear matching pajamas. You all decorated the tree together and sipped on hot chocolate.Â
You made him watch christmas movies and take pictures and even though he tried to act manly he had never been happier or more in love.Â
The season was flying by and you were spending all day out trying to find him the most perfect gift.
Because all that man did was say he didnât want anything. Because he was in prison at such a young age he missed out on a lot. Â
He talked a lot about playing games and being a nerd so you tracked down all old games and systems.
You even brought him that nice watch he had been not secretly eying.Â
You were all around time trying to get everything when you got a text on your phone.Â
âCome here to our placeâ Was it said you knew what it meant instantly.Â
So you hurried and shoved all your stuff into the trunk and raced over to where he was.
He sitting at the same seat where you both meant. He loved going there back with you and getting lost in your eyes all over again.Â
You ran over to him and snuck up behind him.Â
âGuess whoâ You said covering his eyes.
âRachel my secret girlfriend is that youâ He said not even able to contain his laugh.Â
âWow okay i see how its hopefully she shows upâ You said in between laughs.Â
He turned around and grabbed you and pulled you close into him.Â
âMm sheâs later but your good enough for nowâ He said smiling in your lips and leaning in and kissing you slowly.Â
You kissed him back the butterflies always there. After you broke the kiss you sat down next to him.Â
âJust in timeâ Jean said she was there the night you two meant and every other time you had been there.Â
She placed two big cups of hot chocolate with whipped cream. You smiled big and instantly grabbed it and sipped it. It soothed your soul.Â
âMm omg soo goodâ You said laughing and sitting the cup down.Â
âWhatâs this for thoughâ You askedÂ
âBecause I love youâ Six said.Â
âAre we going home and changing into our pjâs and watching more christmas movies because you love meâ You said leaning into him.Â
âMaybeâ He said smiling, picking up his cup of hot chocolate to his mouth and taking a sip.Â
You both laughed and you spent hours again just sitting there and talking and eating a favorite pastime of yours.
After you left you walked through NYC looking at the lights and seeing everything so neatly decorated.Â
After you went home and of course he went home and put his matching pajamas on with you and laid in bed and watched christmas movies.Â
You were laid up all on him and he wrapped you in his arms.
Six never really cared about the holidays due to never having a family to come home to but thank goddess that changed.
You were the greatest gift he could have ever asked for.

Fanonwriter2023 on AO3
Where CANON and FANON collide!
This is an EPIC LOVE STORY!
Season 7 FANON Speculation: Buddie Multi-Chapter Fanfic - Hiatus Reading: âIâm still in love with you but... I needed to learn how to love myself too!â
Chapters 24 will be posted soon.
Buck and Eddie got married and Buck's officially Chris' second dad!
Currently 23 chapters completed: 893.1K Words; Rated: Mature
One chapter will be posted at a time.
{Previous snippet linked here}
____________
I'm excited to finish writing Chapter 24 because Buck and Eddie are married and the Diaz family is starting the second half of their two-week long European family adventure. For anyone who hasn't read Chapters 22 and 23, here's a brief overview. In Chapter 22, Buck and Eddie got married, Chris was their best man and Eddie successfully surprised Buck with all the things he had planned for him including a three-tier wedding cake. Their honeymoon started that night and they had an important conversation before they consummated their marriage. In Chapter 23, they left Rome the day after their wedding and proceeded to visit 5 other cities for the remainder of their time in Italy. By the end of it, they agreed to continue speaking Italian even after they return to the U.S. because while they were in San Gimignano, they made a decision that could affect the course of their family's lives forever. What was the decision? đ
They departed Rome at the end of the chapter and they landed in London on Christmas Eve to start the second half of their family adventure. What else are they going to do while they're still in Europe? Will Buck meet his biological father? đ€·đœââïž
___________
Here's a snippet from Chapter 24 of Buck and Eddie being romantically fluffy Christmas night.
_________
Itâs after 10 oâclock, Chris is in his room sleeping while Buck and Eddie are lying on the sofa quietly resting. Eddieâs on his back and Buckâs whole body is draped on top of his. His legs are in between Eddieâs and his head is lying on top of Eddieâs chest. Eddieâs rubbing circles onto Buckâs back and Buckâs listening to Eddieâs heartbeat. It's a familiar position and it's one they've been in hundreds of times when they're at home but they're in London, England right now and they've adjusted to the time zone change and everything else very well.
The TV is on but neither of them are paying it any attention and the Christmas music is still playing too but the volume on the Bluetooth speakers is so low they can barely hear which song is playing.
Theyâve had a relatively relaxing Christmas Day with three awesome meals and they spent the entire day doing family activities like singing Christmas songs and watching Christmas movies together. Itâs their first Diaz Family Christmas for just the three of them and everything went perfectly.
Chris was happy with all the gifts they got him and they were overjoyed with their gifts from him too. The video of them cutting their wedding cake was a huge surprise and now that they have it on their phones and iPads, theyâre going to add it to the video of their marriage ceremony from Leonardo so it will be a continuous video instead of two separate ones.
While he lightly runs his fingers up and down Eddieâs arm, Buck lifts his head, sits his chin on top of Eddieâs chest and says, âBabe?â
âHmm?â He hums as he meets his husbandâs eyes.
âI know we didnât talk about getting each other Christmas presents but uh⊠I got you something.â
Eddie raises his eyebrows. âYou did?â
âYes. I did but since I um⊠just got the confirmation for it last night, I didnât have time to get it ready for today so⊠thereâs no wrapping paper or anything but when I get the official one, Iâll make sure to wrap it in a box so you can open it.â He replies as he reaches over to the table to grab his phone.
âWhat did you get me?â
âItâs something special just for you.â He responds as he looks at his phone and Face ID unlocks. Once it does, he accesses his email, finds the one heâs looking for, expands the screen with two of his fingers then he turns his phone around so Eddie can read it.
He watches as his husband reads the email and he sees his eyes widen when he gets to the part that explains what it is.
Eddie bites his bottom lip, looks at his husband and whispers, âBuck?â but his voice is so low, he almost misses it. If he wasnât looking right at him, he believes he would have.
After a few seconds, Eddie continues, âYou did this for me?â
âI did because you deserve it.â He moves so he can sit up and after he does, he waits for Eddie to sit up too. Once theyâre both sitting up, they move closer so theyâre pressed together from their shoulders to their knees.
He leans in and places a soft kiss onto his lips then he takes Eddieâs free hand in his, laces their fingers together and continues. âBabe⊠you do so much for our family, you sacrifice a lot and you work so hard and you deserve something thatâs just for you.â
Eddie slowly nods and heâs about to respond but Buck keeps talking.
âBefore we left L.A., when I asked you what you wanted to do while we were in London, you said all you wanted was for me and Chris to be happy but babe⊠me and Chris want you to be happy too. Us seeing you happy and doing things you want to do make us happy too.â
He nods again because itâs true, all he wants is for his family to be happy so he gently squeezes Buckâs hand as he tries to blink away the tears that have welled behind his eyes.  He allows his husbandâs words to settle in his mind and he never would have thought in a million years someone would do anything like this for him but Buck not only knows him and sees him; he listens to him too. He understands everything about him and the email he just finished reading further proves how much Buck loves, knows and cares about him.
While holding Buckâs gaze he says, âBut⊠this is a...â
What did Buck get Eddie for Christmas? đ
Also, did Eddie get Buck something for Christmas too? đ

i could really use some comfort from dew rn so, if you're comfortable with it, could you write dew x f!reader who is dealing with a pretty bad depressive episode? just, all the comfort and fluff because i desperately need it from my fav ghoul <3 thank u!
of course lovely! sorry for the wait, i hope youâve been feeling better! đ€
✠àŒâ àŒ”âÛ°ââ§âÛ°â àŒ”âàŒ àŒ”âÛ°ââ§âÛ°â àŒ”â
â dewdrop x reader (i keep accidentally writing readers with no specific gender i apologize đ)
summary: dewdrop stays with you during a depressive episode. just a lot of fluff đ€
Iâll get through it with you next to me.
Dewdrop knew you were dealing with a bad depressive episode. Sister Imperator has let you have time by yourself for once. Not ordering you around to help around the Abbey. He also knew the weather changing has triggered your seasonal depression. Which in turn, caused you to feel very unlike yourself these past few days.
Locked up in your dorm, the Ghoulettes bringing you food when needed. Making sure you were at least keeping yourself fed with enough water to drink. Otherwise everyone left you alone.
Until tonight when Dewdrop passed by your dorm and the faint sound of sobbing can be heard from underneath your door. He was uncertain at first of what to do, but in the end decided to knock to make his presence known before silently and slowly opening your door.
âY/n? Do you need anything?â He asked quietly, closing the door behind him as he entered with slow movements, making his way towards your bed where you laid under the covers, sobs turned to hiccups and loud sniffles as you tried to calm down your crying.
âIâm here for you, I hope you know. Whatever you need, just ask.â He sat himself at the edge of your bed, waiting for you to calm yourself down as he reached out to where he made out your shoulder as you laid on your side, facing the wall, slowly rubbing his hand up and down in calm bing motions.
âStay the night?â Came your shaky reply after a long few minutes of silence, and the occasional sniffling coming from you. âPlease.â
In a flash, Dewdrop got up from the bed and ran around your room in search of your laptop you two would watch movies and tv shows on during both of your free time in the Abbey when there was an opportunity for.
He was usually talkative but he knew you werenât in the mood for talking. But he knew a movie and a cuddle would cheer you up even slightly. So, grabbing your laptop from your desk, he went back to the bed where he quickly pulled the covers away from you, moving inhumanly fast as he easily lifted you up and laid down on the bed in your spot, you half on top of him, head on his chest, cuddled up to his side.
âFigured we could watch a movie, until we fall asleep. How does that sound, love?â He kissed the top of you hand as he set up your laptop where you both can easily see the screen perfectly.
Nodding into his chest and wrapping your arms under him to hold yourself impossibly closer to Dewdrop he pick a random movie you both frequently watch during the colder months, Hocus Pocus. Dewdrop resting his cheek on top of your head as the movie began to play.
The two of you happy and content with each otherâs presence, safe in his arms. âI can get through this rut with you next to me. Stay until I wake up?â You asked quietly, fatigue evident in you hoarse voice.
âOf course. Anything for you.â He smiled, pushing your hair out of your face to kiss your forehead. And as the movie played on, the two of you drifted to sleep cuddled up to each other.
As the sun started rising again into the sky, you woke up in a panic. Bolting up in bed, struggling to breath. Dewdrop immediately woke up the second he smelled the overwhelming scent of your fear. Tears streamed down your face from the nightmare you had thanks to your current mental state.
Dew held your face in his hands gently, resting his forehead in yours. âItâs okay. Itâs okay, iâm here.â He whispered over and over again as you slowly started being more aware of your surroundings. Moving to wrap your arms around his slim frame, clinging onto Dewdrop like your life depended on it.
âBreath with me.â He instructed softly, taking deep intakes of breaths and long exhales. You two did this several more times until you calmed down, only hiccuping here and there. âLetâs go back to sleep, yeah?â He gently pushed you back to lay down on the bed.
âYou have to leave. I donât want you to get in trouble.â You spoke softly, frowning.
âDoesnât matter. What does though is you. Iâm staying with you for as long as youâll have me.â He kissed your forehead, bringing you in close to him once again.
âOkay.â You sighed, giving in easily at his touch, already feeling drowsy. And in each others arms, once again, the two of you fell asleep. Safe and protected.

A Broken Ankle + A Whole Heart
Pairing: Alba Baptista x fem!Reader
Requested: Yes/No ~ request
Summary: Y/n has hidden a crush on Alba for quite a while now and was getting quite good at it. An accident on set that should be considered as ruining their day, actually leads to something that makes their year. ~ Word Count: 2.108k ~ Warnings: mentions of injuries + pain but other than that fluffffff
A/N: Hi!! a fanfic not for Jenna whatttttt. It felt weird writing for someone else but I genuinely love Alba sm so for those of you that are Jenna stans GIVE MY GIRL A CHANCE like LOOK AT THAT GIF - also if you haven't already, watch warrior nun <3
The day before Christmas break was always one of great energy and celebration. As per tradition, the entire cast had organised a movie marathon at the end of the day in order for everyone to wind down and say 'see you later' for a few weeks. The set of 'Warrior Nun' was by far one of your favourites you had ever worked on. The cast and crew all genuinely loved working on the show, which combined by the enthusiasm of the fans, made for a dream job. You had also met Alba.
The two of became really close when you were filming season 1, becoming practically inseparable by the time season 2 came around. You had never met anyone as perfect as Alba. She was everything you had always admired in someone, which naturally made you feel some less-than-platonic feelings for her. You were constantly afraid of them. You always kept your feelings to yourself for fear of driving her away and losing your best friend. You didn't even know whether she liked girls let alone liked you.
You were good at hiding your emotions, so things went on as usual, with the two of you having a blast while filming. Alba was currently filming a scene in which she was suspended on wires quite high up, which worried you. As much fun as the wires were to use, they always felt sketchy to you, especially today. You ignored your bad feeling and returned to the sidelines to watch her. She was incredibly talented at many things, one of which was acting, so even if you weren't needed, you would always stand off to the side and watch her completely awestruck.
Laid back in a chair just behind the cameras, you watched with a tender smile as Alba managed to absolutely crush the difficult scene despite being restricted by the wires. 'That must be so uncomfortable' you thought to yourself, cringing as your eyes traced the wires knowing how irritating they can get. As your cautious eyes followed the wires to their anchor point, your face dropped. Your smile of admiration completely disappeared as you noticed the hook that supported the entire rig was loose, hanging at an awkward angle from the concrete.
As your eyes studied the hook, wracking your brain as to whether or not it was supposed to look like that, you slowly rose from your seat with concern plastered all over your face. Glancing between Alba and the hook, you crept closer so you were stood just out of frame, the cameraman sending you a cautious look before focusing back on the camera. Turning your head towards the stunt director, you were about to voice your concern before you heard a sickening crack. your head immediately snapping back to Alba, her eyes widening with concern as they meet yours.
It all happens within a spilt second. The hooks falls. She drops. Your running. Sprinting. You have no idea how you moved so fast - all you knew was you had to get to her before she hit the ground, and you did. Slipping yourself between Alba and the floor, although it wasn't necessarily graceful, you managed to somewhat catch her causing her to fall on top of you. Maybe you hadn't quite thought about how this would end for you, but in that split second decision you made, all you were thinking about was Alba. As the two of collapse in a pile, you feel a sharp pain shoot through your right angle causing to to grunt. Pushing the dull ache and throbbing of your ankle beside, you immediately sit up to check if Alba is ok.
"You ok?" you ask breathlessly as your eyes search her body for any obvious injuries. "Y-yeah I'm ok. Thanks", replying obviously still in shock as to what just happened, she offers you a small smile as you untangle yourselves. The two of you linger on the ground for a moment, just looking into each others eyes, breathless. You completely forgot that you were surrounded by the rest of the crew until some of them came running up to the both of you, breaking your trance as your eyes left her brown ones.
Alba is helped to her feet before she turns her attention back to you, offering you her hand. Your lips twitch into a smile as you slip your hands into hers, trying to ignore how perfect her hand fits in yours. "Ow fuck" you immediately fall back down after trying to stand up, you hands grasping your ankle as the throbbing of your now swollen joint resurfaces, no longer hidden by your adrenaline. "Shit" Alba immediately kneels in front of you as her eyebrows scrunch in a combination of confusion and concern. "Y/n?!? Hey what's wrong what happened?" she places her hand on your arm, sending instant butterflies throughout your body - now was really not the time. "I don't know... I think I landed on my ankle or something but fu..." you manage to mutter as your face scrunches in pain.
As the on set medic reaches your side, Alba sits back as a wave of guilt washes over her. "This is all my fault" she whispers - so quietly you probably wouldn't have heard it if you weren't watching her intently. Propping yourself up on your elbows as the medic assesses your ankle, you reach one of your hands towards her. You notice the tears brimming in her eyes as she looks at you, her hands clutching her chest as if she was in pain. Giving her a small nod towards your outstretched hand, she gets the signal as she picks it up in her own. "Alba" you comfort softly, giving her hand a soft squeeze. "This isn't your fault. Ok? I chose to be your personal crash mat and I don't regret it" you earn a small chuckle from the girl as a single tear manages to escape and roll down her cheek.
"I'm fine Alba I swear. It just hurts like a b... owww" your face scrunches in pain again as the medic pushes on an especially tender spot. He mutters a small apology as you look back at Alba. "I would give you a hug but I'm a bit... immobilised." you chuckle softly as she glares at you. "Too soon?" you joke earning another small giggle from the girl, a sound you will never get tired of. "I just want you to be ok" she explains softly, a smile tugging at your lips as you feel warmth rise to your cheeks. "I will be. Wouldn't want to miss that movie marathon now would I."
So it turns out your ankle was most definitely broken. Unable to walk, Alba and the medic helped you to your car where said medic would drive you to the hospital. As you hobbled over to the car, you were entirely distracted by the proximity of you and Alba, one of her arms wrapped tightly around your waist, the other holding your arm wrapped around her shoulders. Just the slightest of her touches sent you spiralling so you tried your hardest to hide your definitely obvious blush - which you doubt you were successful at.
Much to Alba's dismay, she had to stay on set in order for the crew to meet the scene requirements before the break, meaning she couldn't accompany you. "I really wish I could come with you" she gives your waist a gentle squeeze as you finally make it to your car. "I would've liked that" your lips upturned in a soft smile, "but they need you here so" "Yeah I know. Still sucks though." "That it does.". She opens the passenger door for you before rewrapping her arms around your waist and helping you sit down. "I'll be fine I promise. I'll be back before you know it." "You better be". Once again your eyes become locked to hers. The air around you shifts. The surrounding environment fades as your façade slips, biting your lip softly as you glance at her lips. She mirrors your movements before she takes a step closer and starting to bend down. 'holy shit this is happening'
"We should probably go" the medic blurts out, snapping the two of you out of whatever incredibly intimate trance you were in. Alba goes bright red as she stands up straight and takes a step away from you. Realisation soon washes over you as to what was about to happen as your cheeks mirror hers. "Yeah, let's go. I'll see you later" you smile timidly before closing the door. As the medic drives out of the parking lot, your eyes remain on Alba as she stands still, almost frozen after what just happened - not the most reassuring.
It had been hours since you had left and Alba still couldn't take her mind off of you. She couldn't focus. She kept messing up her lines, missing her cues, it was fair to say it was going horribly. Thankfully she had made it to the last scene of the day which involved very few lines - a blessing considering you hadn't returned and with the marathon starting shortly, she was just hoping you would keep your promise.
"Cut!" you heard the director yell as you made your way back onto set, armed with two crutches and a cast. A little bit delirious from all the pain medications, you had been non-stop thinking about Alba - being honest with yourself you probably would've done that with or without the medication - but she never left your mind. Sure your last interaction with her was a little bit awkward, but all you cared about now, was seeing her again.
As you made your way towards them as quickly as your crutches would let you, you spotted Alba off to the side amongst all the crew packing up. A smile instantly grew on your face as you slowed your pace and headed directly towards her. Stopping a small distance away, you took a minute to admire her. In full costume and holding a water bottle in one hand and her phone in the other, she tucked a small strand of hair behind her ears as she looked down the check her phone. You can see disappointment flash across her face, although you aren't sure why, as she picks up her head and places her phone in her other hand. She runs her hand through her hair as she turns towards you. The second your eyes make contact, hers widen as her lips crack into a giddy smile - one which you match.
Running towards you, she basically crashes into you as she pulls you into a warm embrace. "Woah" you chuckle, "Careful I'm not exactly stable" "Sorry" she apologises with a small smile as she pulls back "I just really missed you" "Is that right?" you tease with a smirk, "I missed you too". And suddenly, you two are once again enthralled by one another and under the same spell you were before. Now that there was nobody around to stop you, you began to cautiously lean in, being careful to give her enough time to back out. The distance between the two of you gradually decreased as you cocked your head to meet her lips for a hesitant kiss.
As her gentle lips touched yours, butterflies shot through your gut. Even though you were on crutches, you reached up to cup her cheeks and drew her into a kiss as your lips began to move softly against one another. Your spine tingled when Alba's hands slipped around your neck, forcing you to sigh against her lips.
You pull away as you gradually open you eyes, only to be met by her soft brown ones already looking at you. You have no words. All you can do is just admire her. Admire the fact that you just kissed her and she kissed you back. Admire that despite having broken your ankle she was still the only thing on your mind. "We should probably catch up with the others" she suggests with a small chuckle. "Yeah... yeah we should".
You would've taken her hand as you walked to the marathon if it hadn't been for your crutches. Once inside, you were greeted with the bright smiles of your cast mates as you took a seat next to Alba on a couch - with your ankle elevated. It didn't take long for the two of you to get closer, with Alba's head on your chest and your arm wrapped around her shoulders. 'what a day'
