A wip of the Jaden story im writing because im thinking about it now - I started it like two months ago and then got busy with life and comms and now Im still busy with life and doing my best to find some time to write anything lmao
The night was quiet and relatively calm - at least for Gotham standarts - because except for a few stopped muggings and one attempted robbery there was nothing happening. It was always nice to have an easy patrol, when all rogues and thugs decided to take a break for once, and Dick enjoyed just flying through the city. It was a while since they had such a peaceful night, a while since Dick had time to take a solid breath and actually step back and have a break. So of course something had to happen. Dick was just swinging around one of the taller buildings, looking out for anyone that might need his help when his comm cracked up to life. "Uh, guys-" Jason's voice sounded. "We have a bit of a situation here." "What is it?" Dick asked at the same time as Batman called out, "What's your location?" "No immediate danger." Jason said and Dick could almost hear the eyeroll in his voice, even through the modulated helmet. "No danger at all, actually. I've got a kid here, saying I need to help him find his parents." Dick frowned. It wasn't something Jason would report to them - the Red Hood was actually the one that helped out kids the most and it's not like Jay would need any help with a task like that. Which meant it was something bigger, something more serious and Dick didn't think twice before heading towards the part of the city Jason was supposed to patrol that night. "That's it?" Damian spoke up, clicking his tongue in annoyance. "That's the situation? I thought you more capable-" "He ran up to me and called me 'uncle Jay'." Damian's mouth snapped close with a click. "Oh." "Yeah." Jason sighed. "I'm taking him to the Manor. We need to figure out where he came from 'cause I've got the feeling he's not from around here." "You think he's from another dimension." Tim said, more statement than a question. "Or a time travel. Told me he remembers some kind of beam or ray flying towards him before he found himself on the streets." Dick's heart clenched at the thought. If the kid got in the way of some magic beam or whatever it was, it meant he probably found himself in the middle of some rogue's scheme. Even if he was living in Gotham it had to be so scary for a little kid, first to get attacked and then to find himself in an unknown place. Good thing Jason was there. Who knows how long the boy was walking around, looking for someone to help him. "Is he alright?" He found himself asking. Maybe it was because his heat was coming up but for some reason the thought of the pup hurt made him uneasy more than usual. "Just some scratches on a cheek. He'll be fine." Jason assured and something immediately loosened in Dick's chest. "It's nothing! I've had way worse last summer when I fell of the tree and sprained my ankle." A voice sounded weakly through the comm - Jason probably had the kid propped on his hip. "Dad got sooo angry! But the worst part was that I couldn't practice my flips anymore! I had to stay in bed a lot which was kinda fun but I couldn't run and-" "Woah woah, kiddo, slow down." Jason interupted him, amused. "Take a breath."

hi, i hope i'm not bothering you, but i can order a Scaramouche × Kitsune reader, the two met before the vision hunt (and before he was a fatui if you want) the reader was always in the same place, sometimes having a conversation , the good old routine, but with the hunting of visions the reader disappeared not wanting to give up his own vision, and years later a reunion, SFW or NSFW is by your will, thank you, I really admire your work
Summary - Scaramouche met you as a child, growing up with the constant assurance that you would be right there, sitting at your spot where he could meet you with every visit. He isn't happy when you suddenly disappear.
Pairing - Kitsune!Reader x Yan!Scaramouche
Warning - Slight Yandere warnings?
Penpal - Ahhh- hope this is what you were looking for. I couldn't find a spot to put much nsfw unless I considered writing more for the series ( I could, just put a request in if thats what you’re looking for ). But I hope you liked it!! You're not bothering me at all and I'm glad you like my work!
A/N - Alright- so considering that with the 2.1 update with Scaramouche coming in, I just wanna state beforehand that I wrote this prior so I dont know if we learn about his backstory or anything!!
Link for Part 2
Stay With Me
Scaramouche was used to the routine he’d found himself going along with every visit to Inazuma. As a child he’d pass through the wild fields that stretched just beside his hometown, adventurous and curious with all the tenacity of a child.
And of course you, a kitsune that sat perched on the ground awaiting the Kitsune Saiguu, was bound to notice him. Unlike the other earth kitsune statues, you hadnt turned to stone during your wait. Instead, staying in the same place did you interact with travellers and the locals, which included Scaramouche.
“Fox person!” The little boy chanted, pulling at the hems of your clothing. Bright blue eyes bore into your own, and you slowly shifted your head to pay attention to the boy who was on the verge of bouncing on you.
Humming in reply to his excitement, the little boy paused, both of his small hands still tightly clasping the fabric of your clothes. Soft matted hair brushed past his face in a messy manner, calling out the boy for his boundless running and rebellious urge to keep his hair messy despite his parents wishes.
“Play with me!”
Staring at the boy only a moment longer, you simply chuckled at his antics. “I’m afraid I cannot move from the spot in which I dwell~ Perhaps I’ll be able to entertain you if you bring cards?”
But the young boy had made up his mind at the statement to which you couldn't move. A pitiful frown enfluged his face as he cast you the nastiest glare a five year old could muster. “Boring!” He shouted into the distance of the fields, dramatically turning on his heels and bouncing up into a sprint away. You watched his small figure fade away into the background, absentmindedly sighing and returning to your mindless thoughts.
As a child, Scaramouche would pass by you fairly often. Frequent when he asked you to play with him, and storming away with the same expression when you denied him. Nothing out of the ordinary, you’d lived for an exceptional amount of time, and even though grumpy children were not your specialty, you’d grown accustomed to their behaviour.
Growing up, Scaramouche got no better. You soon noticed his violent tendencies before they became an issue, the way the children shied away from him when playing Temari. Hiding in front of a tough exterior, he scared them away and laughed, approaching you later with tearful sob.
“Will you play with me?” He asked again, trying to hide the fact that he still wept when the other children pushed him away.
But your answer stayed the same, helping him wipe his tears and coaxing him into your arms. Not the first time you’d made contact with a human, but the first time you held them in such an affectionate manner.
It was clear Scaramouche was beginning to see you as some sort of pillar of reassurance when he began running away from home to simply ask to be held. You always welcomed him with open arms, urging him to head back to his household and sort things out. There was no harm in simply providing love and comfort for a child who received none was there?
“Now now, hurry back home little one. Your parents must be growing awfully worried if you’re out by this time at night.”
“My parents dont care about me!”
Darkness slowly pooled into the fields, an obscure shade covering the two of you from the tree you were under. Biting back form your normal emotionless statements, you pondered for something to soothe and convince the boy. Misunderstandings and hardships were normal from what youd seen with children, and you could only offer your hand on his shoulder, a promise. “Go back, I promise to stay here if anything further happens. But you shold give them another chance dont you think?”
And so he’d sprint back to his hometown, and you wouldnt hear from him again till he ran up right up to you a few days later. Begging you to play a game with him. The normal you supposed, and with a grin that seemed to stretch wider with every day, you told him the same thing you told him every single time.
“You cant move?!” Scaramouche nearly yelled one time, tiny fists curling at his side. “Thats… thats stupid!”
“It is isnt it?” You only smiled in response.
Unsatisfied with your response, he clawed your arm, pulling you with all his might. Strong, you realized with surprise that he was much stronger than most children his age. Easy enough to tug away from, but strong enough to take you off guard.
Snapping your hand back to your side, you narrowed your eyes. You weren't angry… no, you hadnt felt strong feelings like that after the disappearance of the Kitsune Saiguu. “Do not attempt to move me,” was your curt response, said in the most stern voice you’d used with the boy.
He’d looked at you only a few seconds longer before bursting into tears, turning away and running. You didn't feel regretful for defending yourself, only turning once more with a tired sigh to stare at the distance.
But just as you stayed ageless, Scaramouche grew older. Still, crossing each others pass was inevitable when you sat in the plains, just alongside the path that lead to his hometown.
With a permanent scowl that seemed to stain his face, he still seemed to have mature a tad bit. Maybe hadnt improved in the social department, because he now scared children and adults and alike, but more mature…
“Hm? Whats this?”
Once again, sitting criss cross under the large tree that provided the perfect shade on sunny days, you stared at the boy expectantly. His hands hesitated at your question, but he resumed shuffling. “Cards,” he simply said in response.
A small featherlike feeling flitted across your chest, making you feel lighter and… almost ticklish. A small smile crossed your face, and you recognized the emotion to be one of adoration. For him to have remembered words you’d spoken years ago, it gave you a warmth you’d sorely missed. A warmth akin to watching him and the other children grow up.
“Ew, dont smile like that, its creepy.”
Swatting at his head, he frowned further when you laughed. “You’re more mature,” you pointed out, lazily leaning back. “You need to work on your people skills though, as someone who hasnt moved in years, thats pitiful that I know more than you.”
“Shut it!”
But as he grew up, you hardly got to see much of him. He’d reached your height and then fully disappeared, leaving no goodbye. And much as you hated to admit it, you hardly noticed, not when days passed in a flurry. You were used to being by yourself, entertaining the kids and greeting the people that passed by.
Sometimes, there’d be the reminder of the warmth he’d given you. But it was quickly overshadowed by your duty to remain seated in wait for the Kitsune Saiguu. A dedication kept in its earnest, but beginning to dwindle.
Inazuma was beginning to change.
“The vision decree…” you repeated, staring at the traveller who’d mentioned it to you. “Care to elaborate?”
The new archon threatenening to take away visions from every inhabitant of Inazuma. It was preposterous, so much that you didnt move. Your vision meant the world to you, but so did the Kitsune Saiguu. You werent sure just how you weighed the two till you saw civilians passing by you, ones you recognized, ones that didnt recognize themselves.
It was snowing, cold snowflakes melting into your skin while your hair soaked in the water. Unflinching, you hummed to a little tune, awaiting someone to pass you so that you could attempt to strike a conversation of somesort. The unnatural weather distanced all who entered the field though, and you simply waited. For the Kitsune Saiguu, for someone, or for some form of entertainment, you didnt know. You Slowly closing your eyes, you decided not to care.
“Im gone for five years and you’re still sitting here like a dumbass.”
Eyes snapping open, you find yourself face to face with a complete stranger. Dark purple hair with dark blue eyes, piercing and dangerous in a way you dont recognize at all. Fancy clothing that you cant identify or put a name on.
The boy took a step towards you, crouching down to stare at you directly. His eyes scanned over your figure briefly, and he brushed the snow out of your hair and ears with one flick of his hand. In the next, he was offering a coat to you. “Take it, you’re probably getting cold.”
You leaned forward, ignoring the coat he offered you. Gently, you raised your hand to brush the hair from his eyes, centred on the way his pupils widened. Offering a small moment of surprise and one glimpse into the small childlike blue eyed wonder he was. “Kiddo,” you breathed, pulling your hand back and scanning him once again. “You’ve grown.”
“And you havent.”
Snickering at his comment, you took the coat. You didnt need it, but he looked like he didnt either. He was already wearing clothing that kept him warm, and with careful observation and an untouched coat, you settled on the fact that he’d brought it here. Brought the coat here for you.
“Still havent improved with those social skills of yours have you?”
He scoffed, letting himself fall back till he was sitting fully. “I dont want to hear it from someone who refuses to move an inch for years. Lazy ass.”
You open your mouth to retort, but instead laugh at his comment, shaking your head. “Gained some humour on your journeys have you? Bad words too it seems. Anyways...” He had sat down, which meant that he meant fully well to sit, chat, and catch up. That familiar warmth filled your chest, a contrast between the cold snow. “Welcome back.”
It wasnt often that Scaramouche visited Inazuma, but when he did, he was sure to visit you. The two of you would sit down for hours, talking about the most trivial topics. He never mentioned what he did in his time away, and you never asked.
But things began to go downhill when news of the vision decree finally took action.
“Its no joke anymore! The Raiden Shogun has taken custody of almost a hundred visions!”
In that moment you made your decision, weighing your vision over the Kitsune Saiguu. Awfully selfish you knew, but you’d spent decades sitting there in wait.
And for the first time you sat up from your position on the ground, clumsily stumbling upright but gaining balance. It takes a few steps until you’re back to normal, and you begin your journey in order to escape the Raiden Shogun’s vision hunt decree.
_-_-_-_
You didnt expect to see him again.
Long grass tickled at the skin of your legs, making you adjust your footing to no avail. Sun slowly descending past the mountains to mark the start of an evening and the soon approaching night. A normal day of exploring the mountains and islands of Inazuma, observing the constant changing situation, and running away from the vision decree like a favourite past-time.
With the exception of a firm grip on your wrist.
Dark purple like hair, same hate brimmed eyes and lavish clothing. You recognized Scaramouche the moment he had appeared, looking just as surprised as you were. That being before he snatched your wrist and snarled, “You.”
You wouldve considered it pure luck to find him, an unexpected reunion with someone you actually remembered. But no, his tone had some predatorial edge to it that had you cringing. Hard. “Yes, its me.” You answered back with a frown, trying to loosen his hold. “Nice to see you too, is something the matter?”
He only seemed confused at your words, pulling you closer.
“Something the matter?” He asked as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. “Well, to start, you’re not sitting at your damn spot.”
Taken aback for a moment, you wondered if that sole fact was what drove the boy to such lengths. Surely he couldn't be so troubled over the fact that you moved… “The vision hunt decree, I'm sure I mentioned that I was sticking around in wait for the Kitsune Saiguu. I decided to wander around and avoid the conflict until I could settle back.”
“You could’ve waited for me,” he stated almost instantly. “I could have protected you.”
You felt your brows furrow quizzically. “Wait for you? Why in the world would I-”
“Why wouldn't I?” He pushed you closer till he could fully grab both wrists, taking a step closer as if his words would resonate clearer in your head. “You took care of me as a child, it would only be fair for me to repay the favour.” But he only seemed to be looking for excuses. “And besides, you can't just up and leave… I didn't know.”
Before you could interject with the obvious answer that he didn't need to know, you stopped. You’d lived decades, nearly centuries if you’d kept count, and you had learned to read people's expressions even when you’d stayed away from them for so long. He didn't know. It hit you in the most unpleasant way that he wasn't aware that it was none of his concern. To him, you were just another thing he needed to keep track of, something he had control over. His face basically screamed, ‘I depended on you to stay in that place.’
Deep breath in and out. You’d lived long, longer than him, you could deal with a child throwing a tantrum.
“Don't worry,” you gestured to the vision ta your side. “I'm strong enough to protect myself, I appreciate your concern, but I’ll be back when the vision decree ends.”
Unconvinced, he pulled you closer, just until your faces were mere inches away from each other. “No,” he said in a stern voice. “I’d rather you by my side, where I can protect you. I hate to question what you’re capable of, but you’ve been sitting down for as long as I’ve known you for.”
“I’ve lived decades more than you,” a simple reply, hopefully enough to get by him. You snatched your hands back with ease, ears flinching slightly when a cold breeze swept past you. But you stayed firm, not wanting to look vulnerable against the imposing air he had around him.
Still unconvinced. “You’re coming with me.”
“No I’m not.”
You’d known him as a kid, watched him grow up along with all the other small ones in his hometown. And maybe you admit you cared a smudge bit about the warmth he gave you when settling down to play cards, but he was different. He had changed in the worst way and you weren't about to deal with it.
“So you’re not coming with me voluntarily?” He asked softly, taking a small step to which you responded by stepping back. He had his hands up, as if telling you he wouldn't hurt you. But the way he said voluntarily sent shivers up your spine.
“No.” Hand on your vision, you held your own hand up threateningly.
He took his time when tilting his head, taking a deep breath in, and then appearing in front of you in just a short stride. Too quick to react, you hesitated before you could attack him. You didn't want to hurt him, he was still a child in your eyes, and you paid the consequences for that. He slid his hand just along your neck, and a jolt of electricity seemed to thrum inside you just as you collapsed in his arms.
Scaramouche was quick to catch you, hoisting you up into his arms dearly. “I do hope you’ll come to understand,” he said softly, cradling your unconscious form in his arms. Making sure not to crush your tail when carrying your legs, he looked past the mountains, sigh resting on his lips.
Because Scaramouche liked to have control of the things he held dear. Like keeping all your valuables neat and tidy in a closet, he was happy knowing you were safe and stable in that spot you always sat on.
And he couldn't have you moving could he?

Do you have any head cannons for the other Dimitrescu sisters? I loved your takes on Cassandra!
thank you! <3 and Of Course I have headcannons for the other two. (though not as extensive as the ones I have for Cassandra bc you know... brain rot) BUT HERE:
Daniela:
ADD/ADHD representation
stims include, but not limited to: jumping, hard blinking, leg bouncing, word/phrase/noise repetition, and fidgeting with her clothing
and i’m also CONVINCED she gets the zoomies at random times of the day
Alcina, hearing loud and fast footsteps up and down her hallway at 3am: *sigh* “Daniela! Take it outside!”
followed by a loud THUMP and painful groan (she definitely ran into a wall)
hates loud noises but simultaneously has no volume control
especially when she gets excited
Cassandra has to constantly remind her to lower her voice
“AND THEN I TOOK MY KNIFE AND STABBED THE LYCAN IN THE NECK AND IT WAS SO COOL—”
“Dani, i’m standing right here, why are you yelling?”
she loves play-fighting with her sisters
Cassandra is more willing to entertain her than Bela but the both of them like to see their sister happy. so whenever they recognize Daniela getting antsy they’ll wrestle with her a bit
(Cassandra gets way to into it sometimes and makes Bela be the referee lol. Cass always ends up pinning her younger sister with a proud, competitive smile on her face. Bela let’s Dani win, but we don’t tell her that)
has the keenest senses of the three which makes her the best at stalking/killing pray
and since she can hear the best out of all of them, she unintentionally eves drops on conversations
so Daniela, bless her, has all the tea
tactile learner
will just. touch things
“Life hard, Mothers gown soft”
can get trapped in her own head and doesn’t know how to express to her family what’s bothering her
this can make her very reserved at times and she’ll distance herself for days on end
her mother is really the only person who knows how to get her out of that state. Alcina walks up the long flight of stairs to the highest point of her castle. her youngest daughter likes to come here sometimes when she needs the quiet. “Daniela? Are you up here?”
“Hello, Mother.” Alcina looks up to see her daughter lounging on a banister high up on the ceiling.
“What are you doing up there, my love?” Daniela rubs the fabric of her dress between her fingers. “Cassandra and Bela were arguing again. I don’t like when Cassandra yells.”
Alcina shakes her head. Those two were always going at it. She’ll speak to Bela about it later. “I haven’t seen you in a few days.” Daniela then grabs a fist full of her dress and tugs at it, blinking hard. “Come down for a moment. Talk to me, baby.”
and Daniela simply rolls herself off the banister and into free fall. Alcina, already prepared, catches her with ease and holds her bridal style against her chest. Daniela runs her hands over the sleeve of her mother’s dress.
Alcina gave her youngest child time to gather her thoughts, knowing it sometimes takes longer for her to be able to understand them herself. Daniela finally spoke up: “It’s been very loud recently. Around the castle. Small things, like footsteps or glasses clicking, they sound so loud in my head.” She covers her ears with her hands. “Even now I can still hear Cassandras voice through the castle, it’s pushing in my ears. My head hurts, Mother.”
Alcina gave her daughter a quick squeeze before setting her down. “Follow me baby, I want to show you something.” Daniela followed her Mother through the twists and turns of the castle until they ended up at a door that was just like all the others. It blended in and maybe that’s why Daniela has never noticed it before. “In here.” her mother guided.
Inside was a small library and lounge room. A fire place tucked in the corner and, of course, a wall a wine next to it. Daniela looked at her Mother questioningly.
“Listen.” her mother said, and Daniela did. She heard... nothing. Nothing outside of the quiet cracking of the fire place. “This room is sound proofed. Come here whenever you feel overwhelmed.” She leaned down to stroke her daughters head. “Just don’t tell your sisters I showed you my secret getaway room.” and with a wink, the tall woman exited the room and shut the door behind her.
The next day Daniela was at breakfast like nothing had changed. She didn’t even mind when Cassandra yelled at a maiden for breaking a plate, it only made her laugh.
(if you get overstimulated you KNOW what i’m talking about)
personal space? never heard of her.
loves to cling to Belas arm and Bela let’s her bc she thinks it’s just. so cute.
will also sometimes just crawl into her mothers lap and fall asleep. then Alcinas like: “well.. i guess i’m not moving for three hours”
Daniela: “if I run an jump at Cassandra, she’ll most certainly catch me.” *takes off in a full blown sprint*
Cassandra: “NO IM HOLDING HOT TEA—” *drops tea to catch Daniela* *proceeds to cuss her younger sister out, all while Dani is wrapped around her like a koala*
(this happens a lot. Dani will just... climb on Cassandra. piggy back rides, getting on her shoulders, wrapping her hands around her neck from behind and letting her feet drag on the floor, etc. Cassandra complains adamantly but never once moves to get her off)
Cassandra: “hey Dani, I dare you too—”
Bela: “Mother said Daniela isn’t allowed to accept dares anymore.”
Daniela: “apparently I have ‘no regard for my personal safety.’”
it takes a lot for Daniela to get genuinely angry, but when she does, it’s.... bad.
Very Very Scary when mad
turns into a completely different person that you Do NOT want to fuck with
dangerous and violent
much more dark and sadistic as compared to her normal personality
came home one night covered in blood and laughing hysterically. it scared the shit out of her sisters bc if they would try and get close, she’d slash at them with her weapon.
(this was one of the only times Bela had seen Cassandra genuinely worried and afraid for their sister)
when Alcina came to see what was wrong, Daniela, still laughing madly, swung at her too. Cassandra quickly shot out her arm and grabbed Belas elbow to stop her from getting involved. Bela whipped around with a growl but Cassandras glare and squeezing nails told her to back down. Mother can handle it.
Insane Laugh™️
thinks it’s funny to intimidate the maidens by showing her fangs and snapping her jaw
she often likes to find Bela when she’s reading a book to convince her to read to her (Bela almost always complies)
that’s it for Daniela. just a hyperactive baby with a murder streak <3 ONTO THE FINAL SISTER
Bela:
Mama’s (and I cannot stress this enough) Girl
needs constant reassurance that’s she’s doing a good job and yes this reassurance can ONLY come from her mother
INSOMNIAC
this girl never sleeps, pls baby you need some rest
she spends the time she should be sleeping reading books or running errands for her mother (whether Alcina asked her to or not)
she has read almost every single book in their giant library
Cassandra doesn’t understand this at all
“Why are you always cooped up in here?” Bela glanced up over the pages of her book at her younger sister. “This is the library Cassandra. Take a wild guess.” her voice was completely level and had no inflection. Cassandra gritted her teeth, “You think your so much better than me.” Bela sighed and closed her book. She didn’t want to do this again. “No. I don’t.” she said seriously. Cassandra eyed her for a moment then looked away, Bela saw the guilt on her face before she turned on her heal. “You’re so boring.”
because she reads so much, she is incredibly smart and just knows facts about random things
Daniela, daydreaming: “I wonder why grass is green.”
Bela, immediately: “the pigment that most grasses produce, Chlorophyll, absorbs almost all blue and red light and reflects green light which is why we see green. so I mean, technically grass is every single color EXCEPT for green.
Dani, confused as fuck: ....
Cass: “Bitch, how do you even know that?”
Bela’s sisters just end up using her as Google
“Hey Bela, how far away is the moon?” “238,900 miles.”
“Hey Bela, how many different climates are there?” “Twelve”
“Hey Bela, what’s the worlds deadliest poison?” “Botulinum... why?” “No reason.” “Dani. WHY?”
“Hey Bela, how much can I sell a human skull on the black market for?” Bela, concerned: “Cassandra why would—” “HOW MUCH?” “Well... are all the teeth still in tact?” “...No.” “Than only about $500.” “FUCK.”
“Hey Bela, I have this weird rash on my back and—” “Daniela. Do not finish that sentence. Go ask Mother.”
she is so quiet
and not just because she doesn’t talk very loud or even much at all. she’s just So. Silent. when she moves
just pops up in random places without anyone hearing her approach
even Daniela can’t hear her coming, which is saying something
Cassandra, minding her own business, drinking blood tea: .....
Bela, suddenly right next to her: “Hey I was wondering if— stop screaming, it’s me— have you seen Mothers lipstick? It’s missing.”
refuses any type of help with anything or else she feels like she failed that task
Never asks for help, Never asks for favors, and Never Ever will burden her Mother with any of her problems. Ever.
(Alcina thinks this is ridiculous. her eldest daughter pushes herself too hard.)
Anxiety™️
sometimes when her anxiety becomes too much she shuts down and becomes very indifferent to things around her. this has caused many fights between herself and Cassandra because Cass will get really fired up when all Bela does is respond with a monotone voice and blank stare.
overthinks literally everything and is a perfectionist
this makes her prone to panic attacks :(
when this happens she shuts herself in her room, not wanting to bother her Mother or sisters
Bela closes her bedroom door behind her and stumbles to her knees. she can’t seem to get air into her lungs no matter how hard she tried. she had failed. Mother asked her to bring her the head of that stupid man-thing, but somehow he knew their weakness.
how could he know? are Cassandra and Daniela ok? where are they? where is Mother?
Belas breathing was shallow and short, her chest burns as she presses her forehead into the ground. She claws the skin of her chest raw, leaving angry, red marks behind, desperately trying to open her lungs.
she stays as quiet as she can, only gasping few and far between. she will not be a burden. she should deal with the consequences of her failure. alone.
a sudden knock on her door makes her scramble backwards on her bottom till her back hits the opposite wall. then Belas worst nightmare, her Mothers voice.
“Bela?! Bela, is that you?” Alcinas words were rushes and worried. the door handle jiggled. “Bela, baby the door is locked, please let me in.” Bela covered her mouth and cried silently while her Mother begged to be let in.
the sound of snapping wood had Belas eyes flying open, her Mother had broken down the door. Bela shrunk into herself. She’s going to be so mad. I’m a failure. the ringing in her ears became so intense she couldn’t hear anything else.
large, soft hands cup her cheeks and a muffled voice through the air: “Bela, my love, you’re alright thank god. Are you hurt anywhere? Let me see.”
Bela pushed weakly at her Mothers arms and said between sobs, “I-I’m sorry, M-Mother.”
Alcina looked at her eldest daughter with confusion, she had no physical wounds, but the look on her face was heartbreaking. “What are you sorry for, my love?” this only made Belas breathing spend up even more, her face red from the lack of oxygen. Alcina quickly pulled her in close.
“Now Bela, listen to the sound of my voice,” she said it gently but just hard enough to grab her daughters attention. “I need you to copy my breath. Do it now, love, listen to me. Do what i’m telling you to.” Alcina took exaggerated breaths and noticed that instantly after her command, Bela had tried to follow, but the smaller girls breath was still choppy and small. Alcina rubbed a thumb across Belas cheek. “You’re doing so well baby. Keep going just like that. Good girl.” a smaller hand was placed on her arm and grabbed at her sleeve. “Good baby, use me to ground yourself. Keep breathing now, you’re doing so good.” Alcina kept whispering soft encouragements and praises until her daughters breathing was back to normal and she was laying limp on her chest.
Alcina moved the hair away from Belas face. “What a good girl, you did so well.” Bela squeezed her eyes shut and pushed into her Mother until her face was hidden. “I’m sorry Mother.” came a muffled apology, though her voice was much more steadier than before. “I failed you, I couldn’t stop the man-thing. He shot at the windows! He knows our weakness, Mother. What are we going to do? Where’s Daniela and Cassandra, are they ok? I should have stopped him for you I’m so sorry I—”
“Quiet.” Bela immediately seals her lips and looks away, already extracting herself from her Mother’s arms. She probably hates her. Alcina simple tugs her back and forces Bela to look in her eyes with a quick tap to the forehead. “Bela, I need you to listen to me very carefully.” Her daughters eyes go wide and she nods. “You have nothing to apologize for. This is not you’re fault and I will not allow you to think that way. Plus, the man-thing won’t bother us any longer, I took care of it.”
“But—” Alcina raises an eyebrow and Bela gives in, nodding hesitantly. “Good girl.” Bela exhales through her nose at the phrase and squeezes her Mother’s sleeve again. They sit like that for a few more moments, calming down.
Bela suddenly shoots up. “Daniela, Cassandra, are they—” “They’re fine my dear, Daniela got a little banged up, but Cassandra was already patching her up before I could even get close. We didn’t know where you were, that’s why I was so worried.” Bela relaxed and again nuzzled her nose into her Mother’s chest, took one more deep breath, then stood. “I’m going to go check on them.”
She steps through the now empty door frame and pauses. She spoke without turning around: “I won’t fail you again, Mother.” and shifts into a cloud of flies and disappears.
(am I projecting again? idk help)
can play the piano
no like you don’t understand, she is so good at piano
this girl has mastered songs by composers like Liszt, Beethoven, and Ravel
she’ll play for hours on end, if she starts a new piece she Will Not get up until she can play it through perfectly
she pretends not to notice Cassandra secretly listening to her play, hidden behind a nearby bookshelf
while her younger sisters always jump head first into a fight, Bela takes a more calculating approach. learning her enemies movements from afar before advancing and ending it in like 3 quick moves.
“Well Bela, if Mother asked you to jump off a bridge, would you?”
Bela, already climbing over the railing: “Hm?”
and there you go for Bela! my sweet child.. please learn self-care.
*ahem* I went overboard again didn’t I? WELP. I regret nothing. Give me more headcannons.

Distractions
Pairing: Tom Holland x Reader
Summary: Tom and Y/N decide to work in the same room together. The problem...both of them get easily distracted and a whole lotta fluff comes with it.
A/N: Whoa its been awhile but here we are again! Thank you for 1,000+ followers it means the world! Surprises to come 😉
Tumblr media
“Hello beautiful.” Tom greets Y/N with a cheeky smile on his face. He quickly pecks her soft cheek as he places his laptop across from his lovely girlfriend, who was currently focused on her work.
She takes a second to look up, returning his smile with a soft one. “Hey, good looking. What’s up?”
“Nothing really. Is it okay if I work here with you? I just want to be close to my girl.”Tom pouts.
Y/N’s heart could burst at the sight and reason he gave. An inaudible “aw” prolonging through her mind...until she quickly realized that there could be some complications with this as a slight frown starts to replace her dimpled smile. “Wait...are you sure?”, she asks. “Dont you have press interviews that require absolute silence? I doubt any of you will want to hear the constant typing in the background.”
“Yeah, your typing is horrendous with those lead heavy fingertips of yours.” Tom teases.
“Well these lead heavy fingertips aren’t leaving anytime soon, so youre probably better off working elsewhere.” She suggests, pointing off to the distance. Tom groans at the idea, using his one hand to put her finger down. He engulfs hers with his, lacing her fingers and holding on tightly.
“Noooo. Dont wanna be anywhere else. Please darling? ” He pouts once more.
She giggles at his plea, rolling her eyes. “Course you can, bubz.” Tom excitedly scoots his chair in as he rubs his hands together to prep for the work to come.
And work they did...for at least 10 minutes. Tom was getting antsy as he read through his next script. Occasionally his eyes would roll to the left, and observe Y/N as she continued to read through an article on her screen. Not that Tom didnt find his own work fun but he always found watching Y/N do her thing just a bit more interesting.
He hadn’t realized himself, but his body start to shift and lean more towards her. His arm extending to wrap her in, as it glided up and down in a steady motion. His thumb doodling hearts on her shoulder. Tom could tell it had an effect on Y/N, discreetly smirking to himself as he heard her audible shakey sigh.
He wanted to see what else could make her sigh like that, so instead of his thumb he used pointer and middle finger, running them up and down her shoulder. Tom could see the smile creeping on Y/N’s face and her little head shake. She knew what he was up to and yet, Y/N still wanted him to think that he was not gonna get her that easily. But God was it hard. Every touch felt like tiny fireworks against her skin, goosebumps forming all over her body with every touch. She to stay strong. No distractions.
Tom eyes perked up, at the action. He must go further, he thinks. Tom starts to trace his nose from her shoulder to her neck, leaving kisses at her jawline. “C’mon darling. Think its time for a break.”, he whispers in her ear.
She turns her head towards him as she smiles, leaving a quick kiss on Tom’s lips. “Its only been ten minutes.” She laughs. “Five if you want to count the distractions.”
He backs up, pretending to look appalled. “How dare you. I’ve been a good lad focusing on my script for the whole ten minutes.”
A playful glare formed on Y/N’s soft face which ultimately ended her up with a fit of giggles. She couldnt take him seriously, but then again she never did with anything. Tom has always said if they were kidnapped by a pair of robbers, her first reaction would be to laugh. As the laughter died down, Y/N paid her attention back to the screen which had been inactive during the playful banter and continued to type out those set of documents that she had been meaning to get to.
Tom on the other hand was still reading through his script, taking mental notes on how he was going to approach his character. This time he was completely engrossed in his work. His eyes moving left to right with every line he took in. Until...he felt something ticking his lower calves. Tom knew it was Y/N’s foot, by the way it brushed just as he had done with his hand on her shoulder. The movements never stopped, her legs now curling around his own. Y/N was trying to getting back at him, but one thing she always forgot was that Tom always wins.
Naturally he had to the same, and what once became a playful game of footsie, now ended up with Tom shifting Y/N to sit on his lap. Her legs now wrapped around his waist and his hands holding onto her hips. Both of them connecting their soft lips, feeling every spark and essence of love. He looked up at Y/N with admiration, thinking how lucky he is to have her in his life. Yeah Covid sucked for the most part and limited their ability to even do anything exciting outside, but it gave them the opportunity to be with each other far more than they could have on a normal day. On a normal day, Tom would be jumping around country to country while Y/N would be home miles and miles away from him. Course, nothings changed with jumping from country to country, but Tom gets to bring Y/N with him now and thats all that mattered to them.
But work never stopped them from keeping busy. Just as their kisses were getting more heated, and their hands tangling each others hair both their alarms went off. The couple stopped their antics as they leaned their heads back, groaning in synchronization.
“Ughh. Thats my cue. I have to prep for an interview.” He mumbles as he nuzzles into Y/N’s neck.
“I know. I have to get ready for another business meeting. Whoo.” she speaks in a sarcastic manner, dropping her head.
“What time?” He asked pressing a kiss to the shell of her ear.
“Mm...3. Why?”
Tom plays with the strands of her soft hair. “Was wondering if you’ll stay with me through mine and Ill stay with you through yours.”
“As much fun as that would be. I dont think were allowed to —“
“Im not saying we have to be on camera for each others meeting. But if one of us will be off camera itll be all right.” He plans, still looking at his girl with pleading eyes. Y/N’s mouth twitches to the left, her eyes furrowed with suspicion.
“You’re doing it again.” Tom states, a small chuckle escaping his lips.
“Doing what?”
“You’re making that face again.”
Her expression quickly changes to confusion, not entirely sure of what Tom was noticing that she didnt about her own face. “What face?”, she asks.
“The one where you twitch your lips and make your eyes look angry. You only do it when youre indecisive about something. Its bloody adorable.”
Y/N snorts at his comment, and tries to get off to give him time to prepare, only to be stopped by his hands pushing her back down on his lap.
“I was serious about wanting to stay with my girl the whole day while doing work. Please?” He pleads again, this time bringing out the puppy face. “I’ll be good and do the dishes tonight.”
To be fair, Y/N knew she was always gonna say yes to Tom. Its pretty hard to deny her dorky boyfriend when hes asking so sweetly and just wants to spend the day together. More so, if the roles were switched, she would have done the same thing. “Go get changed movie star, before youre late for your interview.” She murmurs to him, kissing his cheek before she scrambles of his lap to sit across from him.
Tom whoops with victory as he runs out the room quickly changing into his shirt, fixing his hair, and adding glasses for that sophisticated touch. Sure he wanted to look his best for the Cherry Press, but he made sure his outfit was something Y/N would very much adore as well.
“How do I look?” Tom asked coming out of their shared bedroom.
Y/N looks up from her computer, and smiles widely. “Handsome as always.” She couldnt take her eyes off of him, admiring every detail of the clothing and how it perfectly complimented Tom’s feature. She eyed him from top to bottom, until she noticed something. “Uhh..honey....you’re not wearing any pants.” She asked a bit confused. Her eyes engrossed in the muscles of his thighs and the fit of his Calvin Klein boxers.
Tom smirks at her. “Its uncomfortable wearing pants. Besides no one will see...except you.” He teases, gently lifting her head up so that her eyes meets his. “Eyes up here love.”
“Youre something else.” She laughs, feeling the heat rise in her cheeks. “Well...least we know who wears the pants in the relationship.”
Tom laughs loudly at her comment. He hooks the waistband of Y/N’s sweatpants and snaps them back to further prove her point. “That was a good one. Ill give you that.” Tom and Y/N high five each other, and then it was press time.
Y/N kept quiet and tried her best to minimize the typing unless it was really needed. Seeing Tom talk about his work and dedication was something that she had always admired about him. He loved his job and everyone can see that. Occasionally they’d steal glances from each other, smiling and holding each others hand under table so that no one could see. But it was just one of those moments that Tom and Y/N couldnt help themselves too. Two hours passed and Tom was free.
“You did so well.” Y/N praised Tom and awarded him with a quick kiss. “I love it when you talk about your passion.”
“Thanks. I love that you were there with me to sit through it all.” He smiles. “I believe its your turn now. It’s almost 3.”
Y/N frowns, knowing shed have to dread through hers. Instead of getting to talk about her passions, itd all be about business, business, business. “Ugh. Do I have to?”she groans.
“Come on now. Dont be like that, you’re gonna be fine. Ill be here with you the whole time.” Tom reassures her with kisses all over her face.
“No distractions?” She asks.
“No distractions.”

If Only I Had Stayed In The Shadows - Chapter Twelve
James Potter x OC
A/N: At last, the long awaited chapter. Sorry for the wait, my laptop has been failing on me. Hope you enjoy.
Words: 3,8k
Prologue  Chapter One   Chapter Two  Chapter Three  Chapter Four  Chapter Five  Chapter Six  Chapter Seven  Chapter Eight  Chapter Nine  Chapter Ten  Chapter Eleven
Tumblr media
It was the last weekend before the beginning of the exams for literally everybody. The library was packed with not a single seat unoccupied as well as the common room, where people had even taken to sitting on the floor to study, the dorms being too sitfling.
I had been one of the lucky ones to get a seat at a table, revising my notes with James next to me.
"How do you brew the Elixir to Induce Euphoria?"
"You add shrivelfig, porcupine quills and stir four times anti-clockwise. Then you add a sprig of peppermint, Sopophorous beans and wormwood and stir six times anti-clockwise," James recited, twirling a strand of my hair between his fingers.
"That is correct."
"Yes!"
"Alright, your turn-"
"Hey, what about my reward?" James asked and I looked at him questioningly, "My kiss?" He pouted and I gave in almost immediately, not being able to resist his big earth-coloured eyes as I leant forward to press my lips against his.
"Hmm, that's it," he hummed approvingly and it made my face grow as I thought of him saying it during certain other circumstances. I was a girl, a sixteen year old girl, and of bloody course my mind would wander towards certain things that I could be doing instead of studying, now that I had a boyfriend...things, that I couldn't have had managed before on my own. And with a boyfriend as hot as mine I couldn't help but let my gaze linger whenever he stretched himself during Quidditch warm-ups, causing his shirt to deliciously rile up and reveal his abs, or watching him bite his lips whenever he concentrated hard on something, wishing he would bite me-
"Love? Cec? Hellooo?" James snapped his fingers in front of my face and I blinked. "Are you spacing out on me? Siriusly? After you dragged my ass to sit and study with you? Jeez, then ungratefulness stinks," he huffed in mock-annoyance and I shook my head to get the thoughts out.
"Sorry. What were you saying?"
"It's my turn. What colour does the Potion have and what is it for?"
"The colour should be a bright yellow and as the name implies, it's supposed to induce the drinker in a sudden euphoria."
"That is absolutely correct!"
"Of course it is," I replied arrogantly, flinging my hair before giggling. James smirked, leaning forward. "Come and get your reward then." My heart leaped in my chest but I managed to stop him with a hand on his chest. "Nah, I'm good," I teased with a shrug, briefly wondering where Marlene was. She would have been so proud of me right now. James frowned for a second before promptly throwing himself on me. "Uff, James!" I exclaimed, pearls of laughter escaping as he snuck his arms around me to lessen the blow of landing on the hard floor, pinning me down effectively with his body.
"How dare you reject my generous offer of rewarding you with a kiss?" James said gravely, chuckles drifting through his words, "You shall be punished with more rewards."
"Bite me!"
"Gladly!" I squealed as he started attacking my neck, nipping playfully at the sensitive skin.
"Can you stop with your childish antics?!” Lily's voice ripped through our laughter. She stood up with a peeved look, gathering her things. "Some people are actually trying to study!" She stormed off before any of us could form an answer.
James sprang up, adjusting his glasses as he held out a hand for me whilst looking after her. I brushed off any dirt from my clothes and went to sit down.
"I should probably go and check on her," he suggested and I wanted to ask why when he was already taking off.
"Alright," I said lamely to his back, watching until he disappeared through the portrait hole. I plopped back down on my seat, glancing at Alice, who was completely immersed in her notes, not even aware her best friend's departure. Looking down at my own notes, I tried to focus but my eyes kept drifting from word to word without taking anything in as my mind kept replaying the way James ran after Lily with little to no hesitation. 
'You're thinking too much into it...
...I wonder what they are doing right now...'
I sighed loudly, frustrated that I couldn't let it go. Peeking at the only studious girl at the table, I stood up. "I'm...gonna go to the loo," I excused myself and left when I received no response.
Walking out of the common room, I promptly slapped myself on the forehead.
Was I really going to follow them like a creepy, insecure girlfriend? Obviously.
Was I going to find them with the head start they had now? Obviously not. Dumbass.
Glancing back at the portrait of the Fat Lady guarding our entrance, I pondered whether to go back inside or try looking for them. Lily was most likely heading to the library to join Remus at his study table that he had occupied since this morning. I cringed at my own behaviour when I decided to look for them. 'Im just making sure she's fine so I can focus back on my exams,' I reassured myself, 'Nothing creepy about tha-'
"Ow-!"
"Oi, Cec," Sirius greeted me gruffly, holding onto my arm until I steadied myself as he had bumped against me quite strongly, "Sorry about that. Didn't see you from the corner."
"It's all good," I replied, glad for the distraction as I straightened my robe and looked up at him. He seemed distraught, his hair unkempt and his tie hanging loosely around his neck. I would have guessed he had a good snogging session if it weren't for the sad glistening in his eyes. "Hey Sirius," I called softly as he fidgeted, already turning away, "Is everything alright?"
"Hm?" he looked over his shoulder, his expression carefully blank, "Yeah, of course. Everything is fine. Why?"
I shrugged, not wanting to point out how he seemed less than his usual joyful facade. "Just asking. Where you've been anyway? I thought we would study together in the common room?"
His face twisted into something akin to anguish and I furrowed my eyebrows. "I was with Reg..ulus," he said, turning away.
"Did som-"
"Look, I don't wanna talk about it," he snapped.
"Sirius..." He stormed off towards the portrait hole and I was left staring after a back for the second time this day. I felt the worry built up, sensing that something bad must have happened. Because, no matter how hurt or angry Sirius was, he was always very good at hiding it. Unless he was drunk or something major had happened. And since he didn't seem drunk right now...my feet started moving before my mind had been made up, walking back towards the Fat Lady and pushing every thought of James and Lily into the back of my mind. This was urgent, my platonic soulmate was in pain after all.
Stepping into the common room, I spotted the black-haired boy rush up the boys dormitory and steeled myself before following him upstairs, hoping nobody saw me step to left instead of the right passage towards the rooms. I tentatively walked down the small hallway I had never dared to step in in all my six years before, searching the signs on the doors for the Sixth Year's dormitories. Pressing an ear on one of the doors, I listened for any sound. Fortunately, there were some shuffles and the familiar voice of my friend cursing as he dropped something heavy. Just as I contemplated on whether to knock, the door swung up revealing Sirius, who had rid himself of his robe and jumper, holding a bottle of Firewhiskey in his hand and the other tightly wound around the door handle.
"What are you doing?" he asked, narrowing his shining eyes.
"I-"
"Just leave," he grumbled, his voice tense as he was holding back the tears that hadn't fallen yet. Dread filled me now as he rushed past me to the bathroom, shutting the door soundly behind him. Something was seriously wrong. This time, I didn't hesitate to follow him, pushing back the cringe at opening a boy's bathroom and peeking in. The room was empty except for one shower cabinet in the far back where the water was turned on, running at full blast.
"Sirius, I hope you are not naked, because I'm coming in," I warned, giving him a second before I opened the cabinet to find him sitting on the floor, drinking from the bottle of Firewhiskey as the water pattered down on him.
"Why can't you just leave me alone?" he mumbled, his voice thick and croaky from the burn of the alcohol, "I don't want to talk about it." He leaned his head back, closing his eyes as the water trickled down on his face and further, drenching his clothes.
"We don't need to talk," I said quietly, hoping he could hear me over the water, "I just wanna be here for you." And with that, I stepped in fully-clothed and closed the cabinet door behind me, sliding down next to him as I proceeded to get completely wet in a less than a few seconds. Sirius kept quiet, only raising his bottle to me before pressing it against his own lips when I shook my head, wondering which of the drops trailing down his face were from the shower head and which from his sorrowful eyes.
I wasn't sure how long we sat there but Sirius got up after what seemed like hours, clearing his throat as he lowered the water volume. "I'm...gonna get you the Invisibility Cloak so you can sneak out. Wait here." I nodded. "And don't turn the water off or someone might come in." I nodded again and he stepped over me, pushing the door open and disappearing from sight. I sighed as he left, trying to ignore the uncomfortable feeling of my clothes sticking to my skin. He came back after a few minutes with cloak and wand in hand, casting a Hot Air Charm over me as I got up and turned off the shower head. It was completely silent, but somber in some way as we proceeded to walk out of the bathroom with me under the cloak and him at the front. He held the door open, squinting to see if I had passed and I mumbled a quiet 'thanks' when I was out.
Nodding, he stepped out as well, shoving his hands into his pockets, having dried himself as well. "I will...see you around," he said, a softness in his voice and slightly slurring, "I'm just gonna head to bed."
I nodded before realising he couldn't see me. "Okay. Sleep well, Sirius."
"You too."
Turning away, I took a few steps when I heard Sirius whisper my name. "Cec, I- thank you. For being there," he stammered, seeming uncharacteristically unsure of himself. I wondered then, how many people he had shown his emotional side before. Guessing from what I knew about him, I would say it dwindled down to the four people he kept the closest plus maybe Regulus. It warmed me, that he now included me into that circle as well even if I kind of forced him to as I had followed him around. "Cec?" he called out questioningly, his grey eyes flittering around as he pondered whether I was still there or not. I quickly stepped back towards him, carefully taking his hand and squeezing it slightly. "You're more than welcome, Sirius," I whispered and his eyes softened when I raised my cloak to let him see me for a split second. "Good night."
"Good night."
Walking down to the common room, I noticed a considerably less amount of people were gathered around to study, mostly Fifth and Seventh Years. But Alice was still there and even Marlene had joined her, though her face rested on her notes as she drooled on them, fast asleep. Glancing at the clock on the wall, I noticed it was past nine o'clock. The thoughts of Lily and James that I had pushed into the back of my mind resurfaced and I swept the room with my eyes in search of either of them. There was no way Lily would have gone to bed so early on the last days before the exam and I briefly remembered all the times we had together to study until past midnight for our O.W.L.'s last year. 'Was she still at the library?' But the library had been closed for an hour now.
My stomach grumbled in that moment and the sound resonated throughout the otherwise quiet room. I blushed, despite the fact that no one could see me under the cloak, as a few heads raised in confusion. Only now did I realise how hungry I was since I had missed dinner and also skipped lunch earlier this day. 'A quick snack from the kitchen it is,' I decided, walking towards the entrance and out of the common room. 'And on my way I can make a short detour to see if Lily actually managed to convince Madam Pince to let her stay past the closing hours to study. Wouldn't put it past her to play the Prefect Card for this.'
Skipping down the stairs, I took the corridor to the library and found it entirely deserted. I sighed relieved, not knowing what exactly I was relieved for, as I turned away to head towards the kitchen. The halls were empty and dark, with the occasional light of the half-moon breaking through the tall windows and I breathed in the fresh air of a summer night, enjoying the peaceful silence as I strolled towards the kitchen.
But the peace would only last for so long.
I reached the corridor with the painting of the fruit bowl, fastening my steps as my stomach gave another protesting growl. Just when I was about to tickle the pear in the painting, anticipating all the good food the elves would cook in a matter of minutes, the door opened from the inside, nearly banging against my forehead. I stumbled back as the door swung to the side, revealing James. My heart skipped a beat in surprise but also at the sight of twinkling eyes that seemed unnaturally light in all the darkness surrounding us. Grinning, I grasped at the hem of the cloak, ready to spook him when he turned back towards the kitchens, engulfing his face in a warm glow of light coming from the big room.
A shadow crossed his features and he held his hand out for Lily, who was laughing softly as she took it, letting him help her out of the hole. "Thanks," she said.
"You are very welcome," James replied with a grin as the door shut close, engulfing us all in a sudden darkness. I blinked, squinting in hopes to see better as my eyes adjusted. For a second everything was silent before the two started walking. Biting my lip, I followed them before I could think about what I was doing. 'We are all headed to the same direction, I can't help it that I need to walk behind them. And since I'm not hungry anymore- oh, who am I kidding, I'm starving,' I complained to myself, cursing my brain for having the urge to spy on the two in all my insecure glory.
They walked in silence for a while before standing on the staircase.
"Thanks for the food," Lily spoke up as they waited for the stairs to stop moving, "I really needed it."
"Figures. You didn't eat anything today," James replied.
"How do you know that?"
"Eh," I could practically feel him blush as he stammered for an answer. "I just saw you and Cec studying all day, so I guessed that you hadn't eaten anything yet. Cec hasn't at least."
"Right," Lily said quietly, walking up the stairs as they stopped moving. I followed silently, watching the moon reflect on her brilliant red hair and noticing James did, too. "You know, I was surprised how you two suddenly got together."
"Hm?" James hummed, looking at his shoes as he stuffed his hands into the pockets of his robes.
"I mean, one day you were asking me out and the other you were suddenly hanging around with her and started dating," Lily said in joking manner and James chuckled along, though I couldn't grasp the joke in it. "It was...surprising, yeah," she ended awkwardly and the mood turned somber.
"Well, I guess it surprised a lot of people," James chuckled again, seemingly nervous as he ran a hand through his messy mop of hair. "But, Cec is great. She is amazing, really," he added, his voice turning steady and gentle, tugging at my heart strings. I felt a smile form on my face.
"She is quite great, yeah," Lily agreed softly. Now I felt bad for eavesdropping. 'You're siriusly messed up, dumbass,' I scolded myself. But I didn't stop. "I'm happy for you guys. It's nice to see Cec so happy and seeing a normal side of you."
James scoffed, "Normal?"
"What?" Lily giggled.
"What side of me has not been normal before?"
"I'm just saying, it's refreshing to know a side of you that wouldn't enchant cupids to read me sappy poems and throw pink glitter all over me," Lily recalled, laughing to herself as James blushed beet-red.
"Well, normal is overrated anyway," he muttered into his tie, smiling as Lily bumped her fist against his arms.
"I kinda miss it," she said and I noticed her eyes widen as soon as the sentence left her mouth. James' lips quirked up, his eyes shining. "Do you now?" he asked smugly, laughing as she slapped his arm.
"I mean," she started but paused. The mood turned slightly somber as she fiddled with her sleeve.
"You mean?" James prompted almost eagerly and I bit my lip, the tugging in my heart strings turning to harsh pulls.
Lily sighed, "It's nothing. Just, now that I know the 'normal' side of you, the one, you probably show to your friends and Cec...I think, all the stuff you used to do was quite endearing."
James kept quiet for a second. "You mean, when I endlessly chased after you?"
"All the things you did to ask me out. The cupids, the flowers, the sweets...," I distinctly heard Lily gulp as she stopped and turned towards him, causing him to falter in his steps, too. "I didn't recognise it back then, but it must have cost you a lot of effort and I think that's sweet..." James held his breath. "...and a little bit excessive." They both chuckled lightly before turning quiet, staring at the other.
"So, it was not for nothing after all," James muttered softly, almost as if he were dazed as he stared into her eyes. I clutched at the cloak tightly, feeling cold all of a sudden.
Lily cocked her head to the side, strands of red hair gliding over her shoulder like ocean waves. "Yeah. It did not get me to say yes back then, but..."
"But?" James pressed, taking a step forward.
Lily took a deep breath as if she were preparing herself for something, "But...if I had known this side of you before, I might have agreed. To- you know." I stilled, my tight grip on the cloak loosening slightly. James' eyes widened and I could see the elation spread through his face even if he didn't smile.
"To going out with me?" he asked breathlessly. Lily hesitated before she nodded. For a minute, we all stood in silence as James stared at her, dumbfounded. Lily's eyes flickered around as if she were scared to get caught. "Anyway, it doesn't matter!" she stated, too loudly for the quiet atmosphere, "I mean, you are with Cec now and you guys are happy."
"Yeah...yeah we are," James said, still in stupor.
"Yeah, so..." Lily gestured forward, turning to start walking again.
"But what if we aren't?" James spoke up, causing her to halt in her footsteps. My heart stopped.
"What?" she asked, looking at him over her shoulder.
It was James' turn to take a deep breath as if he were preparing himself for something, "What if Cec and I weren't happy?"
Lily furrowed her eyebrows. "What do you mean? You guys look besotted with each other."
"Yeah, that's the thing," James said firmly, determination flooding his features. "We look like we are besotted with each other. It was an act." I swayed slightly as if I had been punched in the chest. "It was just an act." It was just an act. The words seemed to echo in the hallway, pounding relentlessly into my eardrums as I stood frozen, staring the bespectacled boy.
"It was an act?" Lily asked incredulously. James nodded. She turned towards him fully in disbelief. "You were acting like you were together?!" James nodded again. "Why?"
"I was trying to show you a more civil side of me," he said and my eyes widened. 'Be civil' I heard my own voice resonate through my mind. I tried to keep my breathing even as my chin trembled. "I wanted you to see what kind of guy I am since you wouldn't go out with me. I wanted you to see the real me. How I would be if we were together."
Lily stared at him. "I don't even know what to say...," she trailed off.
"Since you appreciated all the efforts I put into asking you out, you could appreciate this as well?" James asked hopefully and I was starting to feel sick. It was just an act. Something in me shattered. I turned away, trying to shield the little, constricting organ in my chest from his words.
"But wait, is Cec part of this? How is she managing to pretend this whole time?" she pondered and James' face fell. Noticing this, she narrowed her eyes at him. "Is she pretending, James? Does she know about your relationship being an act?"
James tensed up, biting his lip as he glanced away and it was all the answer that Lily needed. Her emerald green eyes widened. "James...," she breathed in disbelief, "How could you do this to her?"
"Listen, Cec won't take it too hard," James tried as Lily shook her head in disbelief, "She knows it's nothing serious. We've grown closer, yes, as friends."
"I don't think she sees it like that," Lily responded and I chose that moment to walk away. Because she was absolutely right.

*this post was commissioned | find other ateez aus here  warnings: suggestive themes (no strings attached situation), hp themed au but we ignore jkrowling <3
something crawls across your desk
round and dark and you don’t have to look twice to know what it is
part of you wants to turn and look over your shoulder where you are painfully aware of the fact that san is eyeing you up 
he’s always sat at the back of potions - while you sat diligently in the front and part of you suspects its a strategical ploy on his end
actually, you don’t expect, he has told you many times before that the view is just better from back there
it’s sleazy and you should scoff at the attempt of bad flirtation
but it’s hard for you to hate it as much as maybe the rest of your gryffindor housemates might
because
you like san
but 
you aren’t about to let anyone in school know
so instead of looking behind you, you take your wand and flick the spider off the corner of your desk
it falls - disappearing in a little cloud of smoke midair
san’s always said he prefers them to snakes, he knows his whole houses deal with snakes slithers back to the ancestral wizards and bloodlines - but arachnids are so much cooler in his opinion
you don’t like bugs or snakes or anything that likes the cover of darkness
the only exception funny enough is ...... well......... san
“so did you get a date to the deathday party?”
you break from thought and turn to your friend
“huh - we don’t need a date for deathday parties. it’s just halloween basically.”
“but it’s so much more fun to have someone to cuddle up to while the ghosts do all their prancing around....like what if you get scared and your boyfriend just........”
she clasps her hands around herself
“holds you~”
you roll your eyes and close your textbook
you pull your worksheet out and get up to place it on the professors desk
they smile and wave their hand to let you know you’re free to go, you say bye to your friend who grumbles in response that you’re abandoning them
and as you walk down the rows of students - you reach the back of the room
you don’t pause when you reach out for the door, but you feel the same gaze that's been burning through you since san transferred here last year
you thought you’d be disgusted with it by now
but you’ve come to enjoy the slight, hot sting 
“so, about that deathday party?”
you groan
you don’t want to talk about stupid trivial school events right now
with sans lips against your neck and your back against the cool walls of the greenery
instead of an answer you just tilt his head back up, gripping under his jaw and letting your mouth find his in an attempt to kiss him, of course, but to stop him from asking anymore questions
san kind of gets your point and his hands slip from under your robes lower
until they’re pressing into the skin of your hip and then
his teeth sink into your lower lip and you pull back
“hey - i said don’t do tha-”
“do you want to go to the deathday party with me?”
you give him a blank stare
you hope he gets the point of it too, but with the way he hasn’t gone back to touching you, it’s clear he’s waiting for an actual verbal response
“you know we can’t just show up to a party together.”
“why not?”
his hands leave your skin and your uniform falls back into place, he moves a little but still remains standing between your knees
the sudden retreat of full contact makes you upset and you hook your foot around his to tug him forward
instead of tipping over and into you, he puts a hand flat on your thigh
“seriously, why not? are you scared that people will be mad about it.”
“no - you know that isn’t the reason.”
“then what is?”
you sit up and want to tell him the real answer 
the one that has been bubbling in the back of your mind these past couple of weeks
it had really just been for fun, a thrilling and almost wholly self-serving reason 
when you let san, a slytherin who was barely managing to pass half his classes, and notoriously known for being quite uninterested in studies, magical morality, or any of the things you held so near and dear to your heart
corner you in the history section of the library 
the books ruffling their pages on their own to hide the sound that came out of your mouth when he’d bit down into your skin for the first time
really you had just wanted to do something reckless 
because you were well on your way to being perfectly clean cut in every other manner
but now - if you were to be completely truthful with him - you couldn’t just say
“the reason is because im just using you. you mean nothing to me.”
because through all the sneaking around in tight corners
using disappearing spells to hide from teaches and classmates
finding yourselves alone in that room of his
far down the twisting halls of the slytherin dungeon
you had fallen for all the charms of a person you had told yourself you should loathe 
but san’s embarrassingly bad flirting, desperate manner of scratching to be as close as possible to you, loud and attention hungry attitude
had spun tight around you
because he was all those things, but through it all - through the bedroom eyes and lips on your thighs
he was one of the most gentle people who had ever laid hands on you
sure, you two could get caught up in a firestorm of young energy that would lead to both of you parting ways with evidence under the layers of your clothes that you’d admire in the mirror of your bathroom for days after
but that’s not what you meant when you described him as gentle 
it was his soul, that was at the core, tender
little pretty whispers about your neck, your wrist, your eyes 
sometimes when you were just talking there was the righteousness that people said he lacked laced through each, carefully chosen word
he could seem like a wreck of a person to everyone, even his own friends
but you’d somehow managed to catch the moments
of him that were most vulnerable
soft gaze that waits with manner to know if you are comfortable and safe with him, poetic words about the shadows of your bodies, there was even a mark of true faithfulness
when you two had almost gotten caught by a angry upperclassman
and san had let you escape before turning himself in and being slapped loud and hard and echoing 
“who was with you?”
the angry voice had barked and san had stood with his hands clasped in each other, knuckles white
“no one. i was alone.”
 so now when he asks you what the reason is that you don’t just want to let the world know
why you don’t want to make a statement
that this fling isn’t just that shallow pleasure seeking adventure you had intended it to start as and end as
but that it’s two people - that really fit each other like puzzle pieces 
you can only think of the real answer 
which is
“im scared. im scared that you don’t mean it as much as i do.”
you don’t mutter those words, you just keep quiet again instead and san finally slips completely away from you
he grabs his robe, hands curling around the green collar
“saying nothing is enough of an answer.”
you slide off the table and try to stop him
but your hand doesn’t leave your side and your knees are weak
and you’re worried that too much noise will make someone curious come looking 
so you just watch him weave through the plants, until he’s gone. 
he’s really gone.
the days seem to start going backwards ..... even though the dates get closer and closer to the end of the month
maybe its you that starts to function on some kind of made up timeline? because everywhere and everyone you look
is somehow san
the couples sitting in the courtyard sharing food, notes, kisses - they’re you and san
the solitary roaming owls circling the sky with letters in tow - all the letters you imagine rain down 
and when you pick one up it says his name, written with the pen strokes that you’ve seen flipping through his textbooks
even the spells that leave your lips while you practice just turn to chants of his name
but he doesn’t .... come back like you wait for. he’s not in the classes you share. he’s not waiting in the secret corners you’ve both chosen.
he’s nowhere and yet everywhere for you. 
the night of the deathday celebration - the entire school is buzzing
not only are the ghosts all out to chatter and reminisce about their time as the living
but the students are rushing up and down between the houses in costumes and masks
you shove your face into your pillow and snap your fingers, commanding the door to your room to shut
only to be knocked on a moment later
you shout your roommates name, telling them to get it
you’re in no mood to celebrate. you just want to fall deeper and deeper into your bed until you’ve completely disappeared from view
you hear the scurrying of footsteps, laughter, and conversation and then suddenly a hand grabs your shoulder and flips you over
“get up! we’re going to the party!”
your roommate gleams with a grin and you politely, but harshly refuse
“but your date will be so sad if you don’t show up!”
you spring up at the word date. a part of your stomach flips and you think - is there anyway it could be him?
your friend takes your shift in expression as a positive sign, whisking you up and out of bed - putting something that feels like a headband on your head - and pushing you toward the door
you haven’t seen san for a week
even though you feel as if the thought of him has more than tortured you every hour of every day
so even with the chances being slim, you feel your shoulders tense and a nervousness seep in through your veins
did he really come all the way to the gryffindor tower? is he finally coming back? did he tell my friends he-
but you look up when you get to the hall and instead of san you see
kim hongjoong
he’s standing beside mingi, who is twirling your roommate around and giggling in unison with them
“i-”
you start and hongjoong extends his hand
“your friend said you wanted to ask me to the party, but didn’t have the time. but ill gladly take you if you’d like.”
you stare at his palm
then back at him and the pretty prince’s costume he has on
he’s actually exactly what you should want
he’s in the top ten students of the ravenclaw house, he took OWLs early, he has been interning at the ministry of magic since he was a fourth year
he’s clean cut, gentlemanly, quiet spoken, and just - perfect
like you
but your stomach flips again, in a bad way, in a way that’s telling you 
no you don’t want to go to this party with him, but to refuse him to his face is somehow even worse than just giving in
so you put your hand in his with a fabricated smile, that somehow is enough to convince everyone else.
until you hear mingi let out a sound of surprise, you turn and look at him - fully expecting him to read through your fake happiness
but instead he points the floor
“spider!”
you turn and see the spider
“sa-”
hongjoong crushes it with his shoe - hand still holding yours 
“got it, should we head to the party?”
so you end up in a familiar place with an unfamiliar persons hands on your waist
dancing in the low light of the slytherin dungeons dorm 
which has been transformed with pumpkin lighting and live music where every time the beat drops a bolt of electricity sparks from every corner
the ghosts, always fond of the cold and the dark, had chosen this as the venue for the deathday party
and although the headmaster and professors were looking grim about the prospect of the dorms being absolutely trashed
everyone else was having a blast
drinking spiked candy corn punch and pressing closer than mandated by the rules
prefects were running around casting spells to push people from each other, but they were just snapping back into each other like magnets
and in the shadows and heat of everyone else you can’t help but think about san again
you are looking at hongjoong, you are trying to focus on something he is saying about the music
but the wires of your mind are tangling and twisting and turning his hands on your waist into sans and his eyes into sans and his lips into sans-
it takes you a moment because you’re so dazed
to realize the lips you’re dreaming about aren’t kissing you, but hongjoong is 
you pull back in horror and he mumbles an apology - but you turn, sensing something daunting 
when you see - against the wall - staring right at you is the gaze that’s been on you for so long that you can never mistake it for another
“san!”
you gasp, and your hands drop from hongjoong’s shoulders, fast enough to watch san turn and disappear through the doors
“san?”
hongjoong repeats
“the slytherin? why are you-”
you rush toward him, pushing past the bodies that all seem to meld into one and other
the electricity zaps just as the door closes and it makes you jump and when you push it back open
the sound and the crowd shrinks 
and you are looking down a dark, cold hall
you take your wand out and spark a small light from the tip - “san?” you call his name
legs shaking, voice a small tremble
there’s no answer
you keep going - subjecting yourself to the deeper parts of the dungeon until you think you’ve walked almost the entire hall and in front of you is a wall
something crawls up the side of your leg and you freeze
“san?”
you breathe again - but there’s no response and the feeling keeps coming up your skin, up your clothes, up and onto your neck and then 
just as you think you can feel it begin to crawl up to your lips
it disappears and you turn because something like a flame starts to bloom from the center of your back
and when you do
it’s san
a spider crawls across his cheek, disappearing into smoke on him too
you don’t want to settle your breathing yet 
you feel like you’ve been bounded to the spot you’re standing in
“you could have just told me there was someone else.”
“there isn’t.”
“i saw it - you can’t just -”
he starts, voice dropping until you think there’s only one thing you can say that would prove to him that it’s him
“i want to be with you.”
his eyes, long and overcasted with pain, widen
“being without you is like being without myself”
you stumble over the words - unfamiliar with this feeling of anxiety that has never grasped you so fully
“it’s stupid to be scared of you leaving me, but i am more terrified that i won’t have you at all to begin with.”
he is searing through you with the gaze 
but the flame that used to burn hot with desire is now a cool, blue fire 
that is scoping you out, weighing your words in his mind 
until he presses his lips to yours and you lean back against the wall to let your hands find his neck
“i won’t leave you.”
he breathes into your skin
his scent floating around you and comforting you in the dark as you drop your wand and the only light you two had is gone
“you might even get sick of me and ask me too, but i won’t because i love you.”
you want to laugh at that 
not because it is funny but because he must be insane
to think you’d ever get sick of him
even a week without him has left you suffering in withdrawl, for the first time it’s you who san can’t keep up with
as you kiss him back harder and lick into the roof of his mouth and pull your hands under his shirt
and he has to nearly stop you from undressing him there - because you just want to devour this moment over and over
until the taste of him is ingrained in your memory and you can recall what its like to have his pulse against your tongue even if a million miles separate you
san returns the sentiment, his hands itch too to find the places he adores most but even still
the entire school is a hallway away, so is the headmaster
so he lets you kiss him again, mark the side of his jawline and get your hands down to his belt before he mutters that he knows a shortcut to his room from here
you and san don’t return to the party
but the house ghosts saw you
and in the morning when san is walking down the gryffindor hall from your dorm
everyone knows very damn well why he’s there
the shock the questions the side eyes are all what you expected
but they don’t compare to the comfort that comes with having him beside you again
sitting with him at the top of the tower, legs swinging over the side, his smile in your neck
“i think its kinda cool that our anniversary is on halloween”
he comments one day as you’re sitting in his lap in slytherin commons
you turn to look at him
“wait, did you have a costume for the deathday part - what was it? i didn’t see.”
“oh you didn’t notice?”
you shake your head and san plays with your fingers before grinning up at you - long cheshire smile
“i was dressed as your boyfriend. fitting huh?”
you lean forward and he puckers his lips in anticipation, but then yelps when you flick his forehead
“i think you might have been right about that getting sick of you predication.”

Some thoughts about Crosshair and Omega.
Warning: The Bad Batch Ep. 16 spoilers below!!
God, I just love their relationship. While I do adores the other members wholesome relationship with her, Crosshair just hits different with me. Mainly because I'm a sucker for "disgruntled grumpy man growing fond of this sunshine little child, who always tries to bring out the very best of him" trope. The child who gives him hope. And I truly believes, Omega is going to be his hope.
While I do agreed that Crosshair was cold towards Omega, albeit this is due to the chip in his head, he however, was not outrightly and directly, unkind towards her. Well, not until this episode. But even then, it's nothing extreme.
There's a few subtle moments where I caught him letting his guard down/being soft, in his own way I guess, towards Omega, even if it was only a brief moment. Not just in this latest episode, but also back from episode 1.
But also, funny enough, this latest episode also marks the first time he ever acts unkind, directly, towards her. Even so, you can still see his guilt right after.
Let's start.
1. When Omega was struggling to lift the metal debris that was crushing Crosshair, AZ was rambling about his current situation to him (perhaps he was just trying to comfort him?). And of course, understandably, my man here is not having it. He angrily tells AZ to get the debris off of him. But oddly enough, he doesn't direct his anger/frustration towards Omega too. He doesn't even look at her. Not even a petty jab or insults, which he has no problem doing that with the other members (especially Hunter).
It's almost as if he was angry at AZ for not helping her enough, letting her do the work alone, like "wtf are you doing??? just help the kid already??"
Tumblr media
2. Right after the door was open and they were flooded out of there, look what he did here when he gets up. (shitty quality because im still pumped and don't have the focus to create a proper gifs sorry)
HE!! CHECKS!! ON!! HER!!
like "wait is she okay? oh she's okay."
3. When they were running, Omega suddenly stops. She was distraught from seeing the destruction from around her. And lookie here. He also stops. Ooh what's that expression on his face? He looks worried. Funny. You would've thought he'd be annoyed by her for stopping in the middle of a goddamn destruction. But nope.
Tumblr media
4. The parallel of her saving AZ from falling after being hit by a debris vs Echo hanging on Crosshair after, also, being hit by a falling debris.
Omega, literally reaching out for AZ.
Crosshair, determinedly, with all his might, hanging on to that metal, to ensure both, him and Echo, doesn't fall.
(no picture because shit happens so fast i couldn't snap it properly.)
5. While the others were running to get to 'a space that's more secure', Omega, being the sweetheart that she is, noticed her brother not moving. (a parallel to before, when she stops, everyone else also stop. but when it's Crosshair, everyone else keeps moving. wonder if there's an underlying meaning to that.)
And she stops.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
God, this really got me thinking. What was he thinking? Did he stop because of the same reason like Omega before? Or... was he considering to.. stay and die? He was contemplating what Hunter said to him
"If you want to stay and die, that's your call."
But then, Omega stoods there. Looking at him. With so much.. hope. And sadness. It's like she could tell, and hoping, begging, that he won't do that.
Whatever it is that got him moving again, he was sure that it must be her.
6. Look how cute.
Tumblr media
7. This face.
Tumblr media
8. *after being trapped again*
"This is what happens when you let a kid calls the shot." *sneered at Omega*
Crosshair, I love you. But Im about to grab you by your skinny neck for sayin shit like this. Because LOOK AT HER FACE fucking hell.
Tumblr media
And yet again, despite what happened, Omega STILL tries to connect with him (again, parallel to episode 1). And would you look at that face. Such.. sorrow. He was clutching his head before Omega shows up.(and there ya go, his chip is definitely still there). And when Omega goes to sit with him, he immediately turn away from her, hiding his pain (and, perhaps, shame?). And then, comes his defense mechanism. Unlike in episode 1, this time, he is quick to tell her to go away.
Tumblr media
Also,
Omega: "I wanted to believe it was the inhibitor chip that made you like this. But.. I was wrong."
If you look closely, trust me. You would've seen there, for a brief seconds, he looks shattered by what she said. This kid, who saves his life, who looks at him with so much hope.... Is now giving up on him too. When she walks away from him... the way he stares at her... *sobs*
Also, funny that he didn't correct her when she was talking about the chip. If he really doesn't have it anymore, why didn't he corrects her?
9. This. THIS! is the highlight for me. Because he REALLY doesn't have to, if he truly does dislike Omega so much. He could've just let Hunter go. But noooo. He CHOSE to save her himself. I doubt he did that for AZ.
Nah. He was doing it for HER.
Also, no one could see her below the sea. Except for him, of course, due to his exceptional eyesight.
JUST LOOK AT HIS GODDAMN FACE HERE.
THAT MEANS HE CAN SEE HER, FLAILING AND GASPING FOR AIR.
HE CAN SEE HER DYING!
AND LOOK AT THAT FACE!
Tumblr media
10. Finally, we have this... fucking heartbreaking moment between them.
Crosshair has made up his mind. He chose to not go with them.
As Omega was about to leave, she stops. She turned around.
Crosshair: "What?"
Omega: "Thank you for saving AZI."
I'm-
Noticed she doesn't include herself in this. Why? Is it because she really believes Crosshair hate her that much? That he only did that for AZI?
Also,
Omega: "You're still their brother, Crosshair. You're my brother too."
Omega's love for Crosshair will never not amazed me. And I'm sure Crosshair feels the same. He had hurt this kid far too many time, and there she is. Fearlessly tells him, that she still believes in him. She believes that he will come home one day. They all do. Even if they don't say it.
Tumblr media
And he might believes it too. Because of her.

Dragon!Kirishima
Day 7!
Warnings: Oviposition
ngl im not to happy with this one but writing 1k+ fics everyday is wearing on mee
It’s a gender-neutral reader this time~ tomorrow will be gender-neutral as welll
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dragon!Kirishima “Humans are such needy creatures. Why would you need to talk to anyone except me!”
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Humans are such needy creatures. Why would you need to talk to anyone except me!”
You were sat ontop of the dragon, one leg on either side of his torso as his clawed hands dragged across your bare body, sliding up your sides before grabbing your chest, his thumbs rubbed across your nipples as he squeezed your breasts so hard it hurt.
“K-kiri-”
You were immediately cut off by the shifter, who squirmed irritability underneath you, wings flapping in frustration as he settled down again. It wasn’t often you saw your mate in half shifted form, not fully dragon, but not as humanoid as he could be. His horns sprouted from his head, his entire body covered with patches of hard scales, his finger and toenails had turned into claws. You had fucked up big time…
“I get you humans usually stay attached to your original nest mates but you don’t need them! I’m your mate! None of them should be laying their eyes on you…”
His voice cut off into a deep angry growl, his eyes briefly turning into slits before melting back into the circles that you were use to. You had no idea that leaving for less than an hour to see your mom would be such a big deal. You frowned softly down at him as his hands instead slid down to your hips, tracing shapes into the skin their as he scowled angrily at the wall.
“Kiri, im sorry…I just missed my family. I should’ve asked you first…I-”
You hesitated cutting off the ‘ill ask you next time’ you were about to add, eyes sliding over to the shredded remains of your clothes, the only ones you had. You had a feeling that there would be no ‘next time’. Your gaze turned back to the dragon, tensing up when you found a serious look on his face as he stared at you.
“K-kiri?”
“You missed your family…”
You blinked at him in confusion, squirming uncomfortably ontop of him, squeaking when his grip on you tightened.
“Humans…usually live in packs.”
“W-what- I mean- I guess so? Kiri what are you talking about?”
You frowned worriedly down at him, not liking the spark in his eye as he started to grin up at you. He had had that look when he first took you, he had that look when the two of you had mated, and it was that same look he made whenever he had an idea you knew you would be forced to go along with.
“You humans are so…needy. You need other humans, that’s why you left! Because you needed to see your old pack!”
You frowned down at him, more and more confused by the second. So he understood then? You wouldn’t call your family and village a pack, but you also took awhile to understand what mate meant…
“Yeah?”
“So if there is a pack here, you won’t need to leave!”
You blinked down at him, trying to understand what the hell he meant by that, but found yourself pulling up a blank. You frowned softly at him as he practically glowed in excitement up at you.
“It’ll take me a few days to get them all ready, and of course we’ll need to stock up on food and water for you…Oh! I bet you’ll want more blankets!”
You slid back slightly, settling yourself on his lap at the dragon sat up, chirping in excitement as he rambled away, arms wrapping around you as he pulled you close to his chest.
“Oh, Isn’t this just so exciting, pebble?”
“U-uh…yeah.”
You couldn’t bring yourself to dampen the excitement that was practically rolling off him in waves. Even if you could, you would much rather deal with an over excited dragon than go back to the angry one that would probably end with a village or two being burned to the ground. You convinced him to stop eating humans, but killing them was a harder task, especially when your normally cool tempered dragon got angry.
Still, you couldn’t help the nervous squeeze in your chest when he grinned and hugged you tight.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~.
Several weeks had passed since then, and part of you had forgotten about the strange incident. You had settled into your new normal of your dragon mate coming back home with armfuls of quilts and blankets, silk embroidered pillows, and other strange things that you didn’t even bother asking where he had stolen them from. When you had first told him to take them back he had given you the most offended stare you’d ever seen, and then started hording and bringing home even softer and more expensive items. You hadn’t bothered to bug him about it again, and he seemed pleased, apparently thinking that the quality of the blankets was the issue and he had now passed your test.
And then there was the constant hovering. Sure, Kirishima had always been extremely worried about you, almost too aware of how fragile you were compared to him, but in the past few weeks that seemed to be put into overdrive. Most of the time you were trapped to the nest of blankets that he had made, being pushed down with soft coos of ‘needing your rest’ every time you tried to get up. Not that you could fight him too much, you were so comfortable you hardly wanted to get up anymore. Especially when when you did you had a dragon practically breathing down your neck, walking so close to you that you had tripped over him several times, leading to panicked chirps and whines as you were immediately taken back to the nest and coddled for the rest of the day and into the next morning.
Overall you had just accepted this new behavior as the new normal and rolled with it, nearly forgetting his comments about packs and his endless excitement, at least until you were jostled awake in the morning by your dragon practically jumping on top of you, back in his half shifted form as his tail wagged so hard it thumped against the side of the nest rapidly.
“Kiri…”
You grumbled up at him softly, still half asleep and very tempted to ignore the ball of sun sat ontop of you. More often than not he woke you up for stupid reasons and you were ready to smack him despite knowing hitting his stone hard muscles would hurt you more than it hurt him.
“They’re ready!”
“What’s ready…”
“Our eggs!”
You had been half falling asleep again, eyes slowly drifting closed, but that caught your attention. You snapped awake, staring at him in completely confusion. Eggs?
“Our…what?”
You didn’t think it was possible but his grin got wider, showing off his sharp teeth as he practically purred down at you, tail wagging even harder as his wings fluttered in excitement.
“Our eggs! The ones im going to put inside you!”
You sputtered up at the redhead as he hooked his arms around you, pulling you up to sit ontop of him as he fell onto his back, melting into the curved edge of the nest. Your hands fell to his chest, holding yourself up as you stared down at him, mouth open in shock.
“You said you missed your pack! So we’ll make our own pack.”
“I-I-”
You were lovingly shushed as he grinned up at you, clawed hands wrapping around your hips as he ground up against you, cock bumping against you gently.
“It’s okay~ I’ll take care of it all!”
You stumbled over some weak complaints, but you knew it was too late, there was nothing you could do but ride this out. Is that why he had been acting so weird? He had been making eggs to put inside of you?
You squirmed squeaking softly, grabbing onto his shoulders instead as he lifted you just enough to rub his cock against your entrance, the slick pouring from the tip slicking the way as you were slowly lowered down onto his cock, gasping at the burn of the stretch.
“S-slow down!”
You gasped weakly whimpering at him, thighs clamping down around his hips once you were fully lowered down, preventing him from moving at all as he snarled, grinding up into you.
“Can’t! Need to…Breed!”
Your breath stuttered, thighs clamping down harder around him when he kept swelling, stretching you further. You trembled and whimpered down at him, about to complain further when you felt it.
You could feel it, Kirishima’s cock pushed deeper, nudging hard inside you before being followed by something thick. It stretched you further than before, sliding past your walls, deeper and deeper before it finally popped inside of you, several gushes of cum following it as it settled inside you.
You were left groaning, shaking and gasping for air as that egg was followed by another and then another, each one grinding slowly past your sweet spot before falling into the place with the other. Every single one was cushioned, the gaps between them being filled with hot cum. You trembled, feeling fuzzy and weak, everything felt distant from you, when you looked down you saw Kirishima, lips curled back into a snarl, the claws on his toes shredding through the blankets of the nest as he rocked up hard into you, pushing the eggs through. You swore he was growling, snarling up at you, lips moving but you couldn’t hear anything past the ringing in your head. Pleasure filled you, muffling all your senses.
 All you could focus on was the grind of each egg against one another, the sweet drag of each egg across that little bundle of nerves inside of you. You weren’t sure how many there were, enough that your belly swelled slightly, a round bump forming and growing with every new addition.
You stayed like that, drunk of pleasure, hazy and pliant, stretched around his cock as you were stuffed completely full, stomach swollen and heavy, cum starting to drip out of your abused hole as your dragon snarled, gnashing his teeth as he pushed the last one into place.
“Pebble?”
You blinked blearily down at the dragon who was frowning up at you as your hand reached up to rub over your swollen belly. Red eyes stared up at you for a few moments before a bright grin crossed his face, his dragon features starting to melt away into his more human ones as he lifted you up, laying you on your back, tucked safely into the unstained part of the nest.
“You’re so cute, pebble~”
You shuttered weakly as he nuzzled you, nuzzling back slightly as you clamped down and squeezed your legs shut to prevent the eggs from coming out too as you nuzzled down into the nest, sleepily closing your eyes as you rested a hand on your stomach. You could still feel Kirishima’s eyes on you but you couldn’t bring yourself to care, eyes slipping shut as you drifted off to sleep.

HATE CAN SOUND LIKE LOVE • JJ MAYBANK
Summary: JJ and Y/N have always fought, since everyone can remember. They both have short tempers and a endless love for surf and chaos. But what happens when they have to pretend to be a couple? Well.. people always said that hate can sound like love sometimes.
Warnings: Mention of underage drinking, drugs, minor violence, some smutty scenarios and a ton of sexual induendos, JJ being a hot idiot and Y/N a wild girl brat
Tumblr media
CHAPTER 06
While the HMS pogue cut it’s way through the river all the pogues, except JJ and Y/N, chatted happily sharing some cool beers Kie had previously brought with her.
“What’s going on?” Kiara asked her friends due to the strange silence between them. She was used to break their fights and now they didn’t even talked.
“Nothing.” Y/N started, a bit annoyed. “Aside from my best friends basically kidnapping me.” Y/N looked at JJ who agreed with his head at her saying. “What did you said to my mom?”
“Oh that..” Kiara changed her body language, automatically looking over at the other boys who didn’t seem very excited to explain either.
“Before they start, I just want to say I wasn’t participating I was just supervising!” Pope said. Raising both hands in the air.
“What could you possibly say to my mother that is worse than what you already done to us?” Y/N asked, afraid of the answer.
“We said you and JJ went on a date.” John B announced fast.
“What?” The red head girl gasped.
“That’s not all we said.” Kiara began.
“Are you guys insane?” JJ manifested.
“They are!” Pope pointed at John B and Kiara.
“We also told your mother you were dating JJ.” John B tried not to laugh.
“I’m going to kill everyone of you while you all sleep.” Y/N was beyond pissed. “I bet my mom didn’t believe that bullshit.”
“Well, she actually did.” Pope said. “She even said she already suspected it.”
JJ and Y/N shared a disgusted look between them. The idea of them dating seemed so surreal to Y/N she almost felt sick to her stomach. The idea of dating Y/N scared JJ, he never had a actual serious girlfriend and he knew Y/N didn’t do the whole one night stand stuff. They were polar opposites.
In the next few days Y/N was on a mission to avoid her mom. She slept at Kiara’s home most of the days and when she eventually went home Y/N didn’t stayed long enough for her mom to ask any questions or even have the talk. Y/N never took any boys home, no one ever stood a chance with her for she always thought they were stupid and didn’t care about the same things as her. They didn’t see her for her but rather for her looks and Y/N loathed them for that. The other boys saw her as a price, a price they could never claim for Y/N was no trophy. She was free, she was a force of nature, she had the ocean’s soul in her spirit.
“Hello? Y/N?” Kiara called while snapping two fingers in her best friends face.
They were all at the beach enjoying a hot late afternoon after a surf session but Y/N’s mind was off and far from being chill. She had a storm called JJ Maybank living inside her mind creating a itch she couldn’t scratch. All the looks she receive around the island made her want to fight them for believing in her best friends lie.
“Wha-”
Y/N wasn’t able to finish her sentence because JJ picked her up throwing her in his shoulder easily, running at the waves direction. She screamed loud enough to catch everyone’s attention, her friends just laughed at the view.
When the cold water hit her body she swore it felt like tiny needles poking her.
“JJ why would you do this?” Y/N fumed.
“Because we need to talk, girlfriend.” He tried to keep her in place while she tried to run back to her towel.
“Fuck off and don’t call me that.” Y/N pulled JJ’s hair making him let her go off his grip.
Back at the sand her friends were laughing at the top of her lungs pointing at her and the blue eyed boy and that alone made her angry. They were having so much fun with her situation and she wanted to kick their asses.
“Even if you two were dating I bet it wouldn’t last for a month.” Pope said trying to catch his breath with a hand on his toned chest.
“A month? I wouldn’t give these two more than a week, with luck.” Kiara made her point.
“I’m done with this, I’m going home.” Y/N was livid, at the point off almost crying with anger. “Have fun.”
“And your mom?” John B inquired, they knew she was avoiding her mom for dear life.
“I don’t care.” She mumbled. “I will deal with her.” She said shrugging her shoulders. “But I can’t deal with this bullshit now.” Y/N pointed at her friends.
When she finished packing her things JJ tried to stop her but he couldn’t catch her in time to talk to her, so he decided to call it a day as well making his way back to John B’s chateau.
Once home the redheaded girl thanked god her mom wasn’t home, Tina had left her a note.
“I’m working a late shift don’t wait for me, we still need to talk about JJ, I love you honey.”
A loud sigh was heard from her, after reading the note Y/N made her way to the bathroom, she needed a warm bath to relax from before. When she was done and the water had run cold Y/N stepped out and dressed some comfy clothes, her plan for the night was to lay in her bed and ignore her problems. Pretending like she didn’t even existed.
But the girl was in a bad luck strike for her phone rang with a buzz not long after she started watching Gossip Girl on netflix.
With was a text message from JJ, which was weird, they never texted. They only texted each other to mock one another or when he sent her memes making fun of her, which she secretly laughed at and sometimes saved them. Something she would never admit to anyone.
JJ 🏄🏼‍♂️: Meet me at our beach in 15, we need to talk. I’m serious now.
JJ was never serious so she knew something was going on. She didn’t knew why she jumped right off her bed first thing when she finished reading the text message, she put on her black vans and grabbed her oversized jean jacket along with her keys on her way out.
As soon as Y/N’s had arrived at the beach both her and JJ surfed, the reason he called it their beach, she saw JJ standing there, with his back against the lifeguard house, in his hand a lit joint.
“Why did you call me here JJ?” Y/N voice was soft, she was actually tired. “I don’t want to fight.”
“Neither do I.” The boy agreed. “But I think we should get back at them for this little stupid prank.” JJ suggests.
They sat together at the steps and JJ offered to share his joint with the red head girl, who normally didn’t smoke but it had been a long day so she gladly took his offer, immediately surprise because JJ weed was strong.
“What’s the plan?” She asked after freeing the smoke from her lips, passing the joint to JJ.
“We should let everyone think we are actually dating, for a month.” JJ said serious. He wasn’t joking.
“You mean, date date?”
“Yes smartass, date date.” JJ giggled at her confusion.
“You’re insane.” The girl blurred out. “Last week we couldn’t stand being close and now you want to pretend we are together.” She pointed back and forth between them. “Actual dating, as in you are my boyfriend.” She laughed.
If there was one thing Y/N and JJ had in common it was their pride. Both of them being to stubborn to lose a bet or to let anyone say they couldn’t do a certain thing. But they never thought the pogues would use that in their disadvantage.
“So what you say, frenemies baby?” JJ held his hand her way.
“Frenemies.” They said in unison.
“But meet me at my place tomorrow, we need to figure this thing out.” Y/N warned JJ while getting up.
“Is lunch included in that talk?” JJ questioned with a raised brow.
“I can make something.” Y/N rolled her eyes.
“Then it’s a date babe.” JJ winked at her blowing her a kiss but Y/N raised her middle finger at him.

Seasick Pt.7→Peter Parker friends to lovers AU
Parings: College!Peter Parker x reader friends to lovers
Summary: when you give one lie to your mom that you have a boyfriend, she ends up buying an extra ticket for a cruise you guys are going on. Now you’re stuck looking for a fake boyfriend and eventually drag peter in. Except you and peter both like each other and don’t know how long you can last pretending.
Warnings: angst, fluff
A/n: so this is a repost because tumblr glitched and it didn’t post the full thing? It only posted the title that’s it and I don’t know why it did that but hopefully this works this time😤
Masterlist
Tumblr media
The makeup brush meets your cheek as you stand in the bathroom getting ready. Peter finds one of the nicer outfits May packed for him. He wears black shorts and a red Hawaiian top. Maybe matching will make them see how cute and happy you are.
“Do you ever feel bad about doing this?” He stands in front of the full body mirror struggling with a button. His fingers shake at how nervous he is.
“Bad about what?” You ask, eyes wide as you bring the mascara to your lashes.
“Lying? Pretending I'm your boyfriend, lying to your mom and dad and sisters?” his words not meant to be so strong but he felt he should know. Being dragged into all of this, kissing you, touching you, hell making himself more uncomfortable than you.
“No, do you feel bad?” Your voice soft as you ask him, he lets out a huff. Boy does he feel bad.
“I mean, a little. I've never met these people before in my life and I'm just lying to them about everything.” he runs a hand through his curls. They’re soft from a shower earlier and smoothed out with gel.
“Honestly Peter, they don't even pay attention to half of the things we say. You could tell them you've committed murder and they would gloss over it.” you tell him and he raises his brows. It doesn’t make sense. If they didn’t care so much why would you care enough to bring him on a whole trip?
“But like it's your mom. Why do you even need a boyfriend? Why lie?” He feels if his mom was still alive he would love her so much. Cherish every moment with her and make sure to visit her all the time like he does May. May is his only mother figure, she’s his only mother figure and he loves her like that too.
You pump the lip gloss a few times before swiping it over your lips. Pressing it together to get a soft pink that makes your lips look softer. You stare at your reflection and know he’s right. You know he’s right but you hate it.
“Can we not go into all of this right before we see them?” You come out of the bathroom, placing a gold stud into your ear. The dress manages to look better now than it did earlier. Maybe it was the sun setting into your skin, maybe it was the gold highlight at the tip of your nose that made you glow even more. The dress that brought out your features, maybe it was how he always wore the red suit back home, how the color red drives him crazy on you.
“Wow Peter, two in one day. Im proud of myself.” you look down at his pants and he quickly looks down to then realizes you're just teasing.
“Stop.” he groans standing up. “Are you ready?” he asks and you nod. You have a necklace in your hand and look at him.
“Yeah, i just had trouble with this necklace, could you help?” you ask, handing it to him. It fumbles in his hands as he comes behind you and takes it around your neck clasping it. He brushes some fallen hair hair to the side as he latches it in place. Coconut and peaches and the mixture of the lavender vanilla perfume was perfect.
“Peter?” your voice weak in a whisper as you feel his breath on your neck, how his hands are rough and calloused but so large and warm. Your lower half is pressed up against his by accident. You feel how strong he is and how maybe with one simple phone call you two would be out of dinner but rather in bed with each other.
He blinks a few times before backing away. Realizing he was standing too close for too long.
“It's good.” he swallows, gaining his composure. You turn around and reach behind him to grab your bag.
“We good?” You nearly spoke in a broken sentence and he nods before you pass him and grab the door.
“Y-Yeah.” he nods following you behind. He wouldn't let his feelings get the best of him now, not after all he's done here.
-
The light was dim.
You and Peter sat towards the end of the table. Island music plays throughout the restaurant but is drowned out but the sound of talking.
You are uncomfortable already. Drinking a margarita that was served to both you and Peter. Yet Peter didnt touch his, he didn't really enjoy drinking, he couldn't really get a good buzz unless he had a lot.
“Hey,” his hand places over the drink, “Slow down.” he warned you and you stopped drinking to look at him.
“Sorry mom.” you set down the glass and rest your head on his shoulder. His hand on your thigh and even if no one could see it, he knew you needed some sort of reassurance.
“So peter.” your oldest sister, Arden, folds her fingers and leans over to him. Her husband talking to your dad so nothing could distract her. “Stark tower? What a tragedy that happened to him.” she doesn't care, and you know it. You knew peter was close to tony so you wanted to shut it down quick.
“Arden, don’t.” you give sharp eyes and she bats her lashes a few times at you. Acting completely clueless to what she was about to do.
“What? Im pretty sure i was talking to peter not you.'' That was the first time she got his name right. Peter was shocked.
His hand squeezes your thigh to let you know its okay. You pick your drink back up and take a sip before picking away at the food in front of you.
“It was a tragedy, but um, luckily the tower is ran by his wife, Mrs.potts.” he tells her and she hums.
“Do you plan on staying there forever?” she asks and just before peter can speak you take your head off him and lean in.
“Peter makes very good money working for the towers, he's very smart and is promised a job after graduation. Since i know that's what you're asking.” You say in a little of a slur. You're tipsy. Oh my god. Peter thought. you were tipsy.
“I never thought about that until you put it in my head. Peter what do your parents do?” she looks back at him as if you never even spoke. You pick up your glass again, almost empty and he knows you're moving onto his next.
He's now stuck. Back home dealing with physics and maths while also taking the role of Spider-Man was cake. Answering questions from your sister that made him uncomfortable and dealing with a now somewhat drunk you, that was his biggest mission yet.
He's seen you drunk before, but you were happier. You laughed with MJ and ran down the streets of queens. Once ned had to prevent you from throwing your top off a balcony. This was different, you're slouching in your chair, touching him, clinging onto him as if your life depended on it.
“My mom and dad passed away when I was young so I've been living with my aunt—“ he starts. You set the now empty glass down. Warm feelings going through your blood, you are angry. It doesn’t take his advanced senses to tell him that.
“Why do you care?” you interrupt him. His hand moves from your thigh to your shoulder, gripping it tight.
“(y/n) i think you've had enough to drink—“ he states and you look at peter with sharp eyes.
“No peter.” you nearly spit at him and look back at her. His eyes go wide at how aggressive and assertive you were.
“(y/n) just listen to Parker and sit down and eat your pasta, not everything is about you. Sometimes people can have conversations and it doesn’t revolve around you.” Her words blunt and shocks peter. When sisters fought he thought it would just be about clothes, maybe stolen makeup and hair ties. Never anything like this.
“That's actually my last—” he starts to himself but you speak out not even hearing him.
“No, why do you do this? Every single year you treat me like this? You hate me for no reason and I'm your sister. You didn't even want me at your wedding two years ago, you barely even wanted Maya and she's not any better than you or me.” you pause to look at the girl who falls back into her chair with a glass of white wine knowing she's made you snap. Peter's hands are now both on you trying to get you to take a seat.
“You call me names, make fun of my looks, make fun of the fact that i never had a boyfriend and now that i've found someone and i'm happy you hate him for doing that. So what is it that you want? Are you mad that I wasn't exactly like you? Are you scared that I might be better than you? That i might be happy without being perfect? That I don't need money and a rich man to make me smile? What do you want? I'm nineteen you're twenty seven. Grow the fuck up.” you grab peters drink and take a sip, leaning back. Peter has his hand on the glass too trying to take it away.
“Girls, please.” Your mom has her hand on her face, embarrassed of the little fight. All eyes are on you two, Peter tries his hardest not to go bright red while you try your hardest not to let tears spill.
You pick up your fork, eating a small bite before you look at your sister who rolls her eyes and mumbles something under her glass. You didn’t know why it was your breaking point but it was.
“You know what?” tears threaten to spill, they burn at the corner of your eyes making your vision blurry and your skin hot. “I'm done, you win. Im done.” you get up from your spot leaving the dining area.
Peter sits there awkwardly, shocked not knowing if you need anyone to chase you or what. He gets up anyways, saying a mumbling a few sorries before going after you.
“(y/n)! (y/n)!” he calls after you. People walk past carelessly enjoying their own blissful vacation. You walk quickly with a bit of a lean. You weren't a lightweight, you just were furious.
“(y/n), wait, please.” he stops in front of you, you’re on the beach, close to the main ship. If he can just take you to the room, get you in bed with no struggle, this will be nothing by tomorrow.
“What peter?” you stop, you wipe a tear and look him in the eyes. They’re bright red and puffy, he wishes he would’ve know so much sooner. How a girl like you, the perfect girl in the world could be so broken.
“Look i know you don't like them—” he wants to help he just doesn’t know what’s too far and what’s not. You laugh not wanting to hear it.
“Peter you don't understand. You don't. You never will understand. You think this is all a paradise and thats exactly what they want you to think! It's a cover up peter, this is all just a coverup to be perfect. They Are obsessed with perfection. I'm not perfect to them peter. I'm not. And I thought bringing you here would prove to them that I am. I can have the hot smart boyfriend and handle college at Columbia and look all pretty but I can't. Peter i—“ his arms wrap around you. You sob into his chest as he strokes the top of your head and rubs your back. He presses a soft kiss to the top of your head. As real Peter, not fake peter.
He holds you there for a moment. Letting all the years you’ve hidden this collapse. He doesn’t care about the stained makeup that will appear later, he doesn’t care about anything right now except you.
“Lets go to the room okay?” you nod into his chest, pulling back a bit but he lets you lean into his shoulder, he allows you to rest while he walks you two back to the ship and to the hotel room.
When he walks in, you're practically asleep on his shoulder. Drunken state and crying was probably not the best mix.
“I'm gonna take off your dress now, okay?” he asks respectfully. More nervous than you.
“I've always liked the color red on you.” you mumbled letting him slide down your straps and letting you slip from the dress. You try and play with his shirt while He shuts his eyes trying not to look at your exposed body.
“Relax peter. I'm wearing a bra and underwear.” you stumble a little and Peter catches you.
“You need to get some sleep.” he holds you and you fall into the bed. Crawling to your side and pulling the sheets over your body. Not changing into anything, just laying there in the lace bralette and panties. Peter looks at you already falling asleep, full face of makeup still paints your face. Even if most of it ran down from your tears he still took a rag and some face wash to your face.
“Thank you.” you whine. Touching his wrist as he wipes your face. “Thank you for everything.” you sniffle.
“Of course.” he takes out the earrings and takes off the necklace too. “C-can you wear a shirt?” his voice chips a little and you stifle a laugh.
He grabs you one from the dresser and you allow him to slide it on. It's one of his shirts, you don't know why he's given you his old star wars shirt but you love it. Maybe it had a few pizza sauce stains but it smelled like him.
He walks off to the bathroom to brush his teeth and by the time he's back you're passed out, snoring into the pillow and your hair is already a mess against the pillow.
He smiles softly before hearing the sound of your phone going off in your purse. He knows he shouldn't look but the least he thinks he can do is plug it in.
MJ: so did you tell him?
Betty: He totally likes you back and its not just the fake dating, you should see him when you miss study sessions.
MJ: Why are you afraid of peter? He weighs like 10lbs i could easily knock him over
Betty: ugh you guys better be real when you come back
He shuts it off quickly feeling like he's invaded something. He saw the texts a few days ago but he just thought it was harmless. He was completely clueless.
He plugs the phone in before laying in the bed. Pulling the sheets up to his chest and staring at the ceiling a bit before he feels your arm wrap around his torso. He looks down at you and thinks with all the moments he's seen so far, with all the things you've been through, You need the most comfort now.
He wraps his arm around you and pulls you into his chest. He lays staring for a little while longer before he falls asleep with you on his chest. Arms around your protectively as you both snored into the night.
“Goodnight peter parker.” you mumble into his chest.
“Goodnight (Y/n).”
-
Next morning peter woke up with you tangled in bed with him. Your cheek presses against his bicep and he really didn’t mind, after the night you had you deserved to sleep. It was late though, a lot later than he expected. 11am and normally he was up. But he didn’t want to move to disturb you.
A knock on the door makes him groan. His body was sore from swimming yesterday and he was starving as he realized he barely ate. He rubs his eyes as he trips over the sheets as the knock gets louder and louder.
You still being dead asleep, he gets up and opens it being faced with your sister.
“Is (y/n) awake?” It’s Maya, not Arden the one who fought and should be here but it’s the younger one.
“Uhh, no, she’s still asleep.” He mumbled trying to gain good vision. He rubs the sleep from his eyes and holds onto the door handle tight.
You’re starting to wake up though, you can hear them talking but your head is pounding and your eyes are puffy. You can’t makeout who’s talking but the sheets are missing peter and you can hear the low morning voice he has.
“Well when she wakes up can you tell her Arden says sorry?” She huffs almost as annoyed as peter that she’s standing in front him.
“Well...shouldn’t Arden come say sorry if she’s sorry?” It was the first time he said something that was in use to defend you. Something he should’ve been doing the whole time.
“She’s busy.” Maya tells him and tries to peak around to get a look at you.
“Well if she was sorry she can make time to apologize to her own sister.” He isn’t as scared of her as he was two days ago.
“Look, kid, I know you want to help but none of this is your place—“ she starts and his grip on the door tightens.
“I think it became my place last night after my girlfriend's sister made her cry.” He tells her with a sharper tone. The girl stands in front of him with a defeated look. She doesn’t say anything before she picks up her phone and starts typing.
“Just, tell (y/n) mom wants to see her for lunch. Just her.” She tries and Peter looks away at you.
“No, sorry we're busy today.” He shuts the door on her before rubbing his face. He scared himself there for a moment but he knew you couldn’t handle another day with them. If he could do one thing for you that would be stand up for you.
“Who’s that?” You asked and he shook his head.
“Oh, just some kid who had the wrong room. ‘Tis all.” He told you and you nodded. You grabbed your phone from your nightstand not remembering if you plugged it in or not. Messages flooded from Betty and MJ scare you that peter might’ve seen.
“Hey did you plug in my phone last night?” Your voice soft as you ask.
“Uh yeah, it was at like seven percent.” He told you before he went into the bathroom and quickly shut the door to take a shower.
You sit up feeling the pounding in your head before walking over to the bathroom door. If you just get in and get the Advil without even looking at him things will be fine.
“Peter,” you knock twice. “Peter I’m coming in.” You open the door hands over your eyes as you move your hand around for the medicine cabinet.
“What are you doing!” He almost shouts and you keep looking.
“My head hurts!” You tell him and he groans.
“So wait until I’m done?” He asks and you shake your head grabbing the bottle.
“No!” You take the bottle and fall out the door. Sitting on the bed you take two before he comes out in fresh clothes and wet hair.
“You could’ve waited…” he mumbles as he puts his dirty clothes back in his suitcase.
“Well, my head was pounding.” You drink all the water from the bottle on your table. He watches you flop back down before you touch your legs. “Where’s my pants?” You ask and he decides with all the things happening, he can at least play a game with you.
“Oh you know, we were both a little drunk and then things escalated pretty quick and you get a little loud. I'm surprised we have—“ he starts and you give him a dead look.
“Peter.” You give him a stare and he huffs.
“You didn’t wanna wear pants.” He told you and you nodded.
“Cute story though.” you wink at him as you walk over to the dresser to find pants.
“Do you remember yesterday?” he asks in more of a shy voice, he doesn't want to get you mad this early in the morning.
“Peter, I was tipsy not blackout drunk.” you chuckle but bite your lower lip.
“Do you want to talk about it?” he comes up behind you and you turn around with a pair of shorts in hand.
“No, not really right now.” you tell him honestly.
He mentally slaps himself for even asking. He knows this is hard but in a way he feels he should know. He should be allowed to help you. Maybe after this trip if you guys were still friends things would go back to normal. Although he hated the idea of normal, friends or not. He wanted to be there for you and maybe you’ll never let him take care of you in the way he wants but he still wants to be there.
You grab your swimsuit that hangs on the clothing rack and take it to the bathroom.
“W-well are we doing anything today?” he asks, defeated.
“Yeah, we can go down to the beach. If you want to come of course.” you say before locking the door.
He was going to the beach.

Bakugou x reader smut - Meeting His Parents
A/N: Readers quirk is Electricity. Her quirk is very much like Denki's, except much weaker. Reader is in UA but in the Support Class.
_______________________________________________
"Y/N! GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" Katsuki shouted from the bottom of the dorm stairs of the support class.
"HOLD YOUR FUCKING HORSES! IM ALMOST DONE!" She shouted back.
Today, Katsuki was introducing Y/N to his parents. They don't even know that he has a girlfriend yet. He just told them that he's bringing a friend over for dinner.
Y/N made her way down the stairs, smiling at how handsome her angry floof looked.
He was wearing black skinny jeans and a dark blue button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and sneakers.
Y/N wore a dark blue skirt that reached her mid-thigh and a white cross-over crop top, along with a pair of black heels.
Bakugou looked up at the sound of footsteps and almost died. In his eyes, she looked absolutely breathtaking, not that he'd ever admit it to her or anyone else.
"Fina-fucking-ly" he grumbled
"Let's go Kat, I can't wait to meet your parents!" She beamed and held onto his arm.
They walked out of the dorms and in the direction of his house. They chose to walk since he lived nearby.
They stopped infront of an average looking house.
Bakugou walked up to the door and unlocked it with his spare keys and gestured for her to come in.
They got inside and took off their shoes. Bakugou put on his house slippers that were by the door and Y/N pulled her own ones from her handbag and put them on.
"WE'RE HERE!" He shouted, making Y/N winced at the volume before putting on her best smile.
A woman with spikey blonde hair and red eyes ran to the door with a scowl on her face.
"HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU NOT TO SHOU-" she cut herself off as she noticed Y/N. "Hi there, you must be Katsuki's friend. You're so pretty!"
"Um... Actually... I'm his girlfriend. My name's Y/N L/N but you can call me Y/N" she smiled
She looked between Y/N and Katsuki and frowned.
"You deserve so much better, you know that?" She said bluntly.
Y/N's smile faulted as the blonde woman said that.
"What the fuck you old hag!? You can't talk to my girlfriend like that!" He shouted
"I was talking to her. Y/N sweety, you can do so much better than this gremlin child." She said, making Y/N laugh.
"I think I'll stay with this gremlin thanks"
"You better fucking stay with me" Bakugou grumbled.
"Well, at least someone will deal with his shit. Thank you. You can call me Mistuki"
"Nice to meet you"
"Move you fucking hag, we've been standing at the door forever" Katsuki growled.
"Don't talk to your mother like that!" Y/N swatted his arm, earning a glare from the boy.
Mistuki showed them to the table, where the food was already set up and ready to eat. Y/N was introduced to Katsuki's dad and then they all sat down to eat.
The whole time, Mitsuki told Y/N about all of the stories from when Katsuki was a small child and after dinner, showed Y/N his baby pictures.
~
"Thank you for the lovely dinner Mistuki" Y/N smiled.
"It's no problem dear. It's the weekend Tommorow, correct?" She asked.
"Yeah"
"Good. You and Katsuki are staying the night then. Contact your parents to let them know, or whoever needed and then Katsuki will show you to his old room" she smiled.
"Thank you"
Y/N stood up and pulled out her phone, telling her parents that she's staying at a friend's house.
Afterwards, she went to locate her gremlin and found that he had just finished washing dishes.
"You done?" He asked and Y/N nodded.
He wiped his hands dry and then grabbed hers, dragging her down the hall.
Katsuki opened a door and motioned for her to go in first.
The room was simple, a double bed, a lot of hand posters, action figures and some clothes laying on his desk. But other than the clothes on the desk, his room was extremely clean.
Y/N walked in and day down on his bed, just looking around his room in awe.
"Here you go fuck face" he said and threw some clothes at her.
She thanked him with a kiss on the cheek and a hug.
Y/N set the clothes down onto his bed and started to pull off her shirt, but was stopped.
"Oi! What the fuck are you doing!?" He said
"What does it look like? I'm getting changed" she snapped at him
"You can't do that here! I'm still in the room!"
"It doesn't matter, we're dating and I'm not shy about my body." She said and pulled her shirt off.
She looked up to see Bakugou red faced and looking away to try and hide his blush, or give her some type of privacy, she couldn't really tell.
She was about to laugh at his red face until she took in his whole body.
He muscles were tensed, face red and looking to the side, and Y/N noticed his pants starting to tent.
She bit her lip, thinking up either a really good or really bad idea, we'll find out which one it is soon.
She slipped off the rest of her clothes, leaving on just her bra and panties.
She walked up to him, going unnoticed since he was looking away.
She placed both of her hands on his shoulders, getting his attention.
He turned to look at her and blushed, feeling his pants get tighter.
"W-what the hell?" He asked
"Let's have some fun" she suggested and pressed her hips against his.
Bakugou groaned but pushed her away gently.
Y/N frowned and stepped closer again, wrapping her arms around his neck.
He tried to look away from her again but she grabbed his chin with her thumb and index finger, forcing him to look at her.
She closed the distance between them, pressing her lips to his and hummed.
His hands found her waist and squeezed gently.
He swiped his tongue over her lower lip, asking for access, which she gave him.
Their tongues fought for dominance and surprisingly, Y/N won.
Her hands moved to the buttons of his shirt, quickly undoing them. He shrugged his shirt off as her hands got busy with the button and zipper of his pants. She quickly undid them and then broke the kiss.
She slowly moved down his body, letting her fingers graze over his toned chest and abs on her way down until she was on her knees.
She tugged on his pants, silently asking if she could remove them, to which he nodded.
Y/N quickly pulled down both his pants and boxers at the same time, releasing him from the restricting material.
She stared at the size of him, blushing profusely.
"Oi! Don't just stare" he growled, but not angrily, but more needy.
"Sorry" she said and gently wrapped her hand around his base.
She slowly pumped him, watching how he reacts.
His head rolls back as he released something that sounds like a groan and a sigh.
With a little more confidence, she let's go of him for a moment, and moved him so that he's sitting on the edge of his bed.
She sits on the floor between his legs and wraps her hand around him again, this time pumping a little faster and setting a steady pace.
Bakugou groaned and growls as Y/N speeds up her hand movements.
Suddenly, she gets an idea.
"Hey babe?" She said and he hummed in response.
"Can I use my quirk?" She asked.
He looked down at her, fear filling his eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't use it very much, I just want to try something" she explained.
Bakugou hesitantly agreed with a nod of his head.
Y/N smirked but wanted to do it when he least expected it.
She licked his tips before taking into her mouth, making him groan at the new feeling.
She swirled her tongue around him and bobbed her head on his length.
This continued for a few minutes until Y/N finally thought it was time.
She pulled him out of her mouth, making him whine and instead, gently brushed her fingers over his length.
She activated her quirk, using a tiny amount of electricity.
She sent small zaps onto him.
His hands flew into her hair, gripping tightly as he let out a moan.
Y/N took him back into her mouth, satisfied with his reaction.
She wrapped her hand around the part that would fit in her mouth and stocking him, using her quirk.
Bakugou's moans got louder and louder. His grip on her hair, painful but nothing she couldn't tolerate.
"I'm close" he moaned out.
Y/N felt him twitch in her mouth.
She let go of him and forced herself to take in his entire length.
He groaned loudly, telling her that he was almost there.
She placed a single finger, right at the base of his cock and activated her quirk, quite a lot stronger than before, but not enough to hurt him.
He gasped at the initial contact.
Y/N slowly started to pull off of him. As her mouth slowly moved off of his length, her finger traced from base to tip.
"Fuck~!" He growled loudly as he came.
Y/N made sure to keep her mouth over his tip as she let him release into her mouth.
His body shook as he reached his climax, his breath ragged, body glistening with swear and face flushed.
She swallowed the load she was given when he finally stilled and then removed him completely from her mouth.
She deactivated her quirk and then got to her feet.
Bakugou looked at her with lidded eyes, still panting.
She sat down on his leg, careful not to touch his member, knowing that he's sensitive right now.
She placed a peck on his lips and handed him his boxers.
She got up and put on his shirt that he gave to her earlier while he put on his boxers.
"W-wait" he said as she lay down on the bed
"Yeah?"
"Don't you want me to return the favour?" He asked
"Babe, I did that because I wanted to, you don't have to do it for me. Plus, seeing your face contorted in pleasure like that was enough for me" she said and went under the blanket.
"You sure?"
"Aw, you're so soft after you cum. That's cute. Normally you'd be swearing at me by now" she teased. Bakugou didn't even have enough energy to glare at her.
She patted the spot on the bed next to her
"Come on, let's go to bed"
He lay down and placed his head on her stomach, instantly falling asleep.
Y/N laughed to herself and kissed his head before dozing off.

♆ with Comte, Theo and Jean please?
Tumblr media
u guys really like ur jealousy huh?? and to answer the anon, im willing to do aus but yandere aus aren’t really my thing
♆ - jealousy headcanon
Leonardo da Vinci
Leonardo isn’t very vocal about, well, his feelings, much less his jealousy. And in general, it takes a lot for him to get envious. Unless you push the right buttons — purposely or not.
He hates it whenever your plans with him are ruined because of something work-related, or because of another resident whisking you away.
“Cara mia, join me in the library today?” He asks, to which you only shake your head regretfully.
“Sorry, Leo, but Sebastian needs help in preparing the banquet to celebrate Vincent’s successful showcase.”
He nods understandingly. The next day, he tries once more, only to get the same reaction.
“Isaac asked me to help him last week. I’ll make it up to you tomorrow!”
Slightly irked, he tries again the next day.
“Mozart asked me to listen to his piece. I don’t know why, but…”
Mozart. Is this a joke? His stare is dubious, though he only nods once more.
The next day, you’re slightly surprised at the fact that no one in the mansion needed your help anymore. You remember having plans with Dazai to go out of town, though when you asked him, he simply shrugs. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“Cara mia, are you free now?” Comes Leonardo’s innocent question, a knowing smirk on his face.
“... What did you do?”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” You stare at him until he finally caves, sighing. “Perhaps I threatened them a tiny bit to leave you free today…”
“Leonardo!”
“We don’t spend time together anymore,” his bottom lip juts out ever-so slightly, a sight you rarely see. “Is it wrong to want my cara mia to myself?”
Biting your lip, you shake your head after a few moments. As if doing a full 180, he smirks, slowly pinning you to the wall.
“Now, I guess we’ll just have to make up for all the time we couldn’t spend together, right?”
He just really wanted you to see the new invention he made in his library. Leonardo only laughs at your precious pout, making it up to you by showering you in kisses.
Theodorus van Gogh
Theo’s very silent when he’s jealous so, more often than not, you notice it far too late.
Whenever you’re laughing with another resident, or tending to one of their wounds, he’s always, always staring, a glare on his face and his jaw clenched.
He absolutely despises whenever he’s jealous of Vincent, of all people. Theo doesn’t know what’s worse — his brother’s worried face, or your oblivious look.
When he catches the both of you in the art room, you wiping some paint off of Vincent’s face intimately, he can only stare for a moment before leaving the room, slamming the door shut behind him.
“Theo, wait up! Theo! Theodorus van Gogh!” You say, tugging on his arm. He turns towards you, the gaze in his eyes so intense that you have to step back for a moment.
“... What’s wrong, Theo?” You ask softly, caressing his face.
Theo stares into your eyes for a while, almost as if searching for something, anything, before pulling you close, collapsing his head on your shoulder like a little child.
“You just.. looked so happy with Vincent.” His voice is muffled, dejected, almost broken, causing your heart to clench painfully. “I absolutely hate this ugly feeling.”
“You know that I only love you.” Your soft, reassuring whisper into his ear only causes him to sigh. “I belong to you, Theo.”
He slowly lifts his head, meeting your gentle smile. “And I’ll say this again and again until you believe it.”
Give him some time. He’ll need a lot of it to finally believe that he’s worthy of you, of your love. Theo is a broken man, but he thinks, hopes, knows that with you, he can get through anything.
He’d wish for a lot of skin-to-skin contact as a reminder that you’re his. More often than not, it’s just you two laying in each other’s arms in silence as you babble on and on about a certain topic.
Whenever he’s feeling a bit more angry than usual, however... the most you can do is accept the silent prayers of the residents as you’re whisked off to his room.
Jean d’Arc
He’s not very good at hiding his jealousy, and you can often tell when his eyes narrow at the person you’re currently chatting with, or when his grip on your waist tightens infinitesimally so.
You’re left to pick up on the clues because the poor boy’s quite unaccustomed to his feelings, even more so his jealousy. However, when you don’t notice your lover feeling particularly envious, he simply distracts himself, going off to do whatever will help him get his mind off of the ugly emotion.
He’d rather keep it bottled up than confront you about it, though you always end up catching on in the end.
So when you had brought some snacks to the practicing Jean and Napoleon only to partake in a fun, little conversation with the latter, Jean could only frown, quietly leaving the room.  
“Hey, your boyfriend isn’t here anymore,” Napoleon points out, an incredulous look on his face.
Throwing him an apologetic look once you scour the premises, he laughs, waving it off dismissively. “It’s fine. We were already done anyways.”
You give him a quick “thank you” before darting off towards the garden wherein you find a wistful Jean staring at the flowers.
“Jean, tell me what’s wrong.” You sit down beside him, a worried look on your face as you rub circles on his shoulder.
His head snaps towards you, wide-eyed, before his eyes lower, struggling to voice his thoughts.
Then, “I just.. do not know why my heart clenches so painfully whenever you talk to Napoleon.”
“Jean, it’s normal to feel that way, okay? Don’t worry too much about it,” you say after getting over your initial shock, pressing a sweet yet short-lived kiss on his lips, causing his head to snap towards you, cheeks flushed.
Before you know it, his lips are on yours once more, attacking them all until you look positively kissed and your lips are swollen — just how he likes it.
Comte de Saint-Germain
Though he’s very used to locking up all his silly emotions, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel them. And jealousy is no exception.
The Comte’s jealousy would be subtle, in the way he whisks you off to his room when he feels you’re spending too much time preparing snacks for the others, or how he so gently pulls you out of the library, away from a smirking Leonardo. 
And, more often than not, the aforementioned man is the source of many of the Comte’s envious bouts. He can’t help it — he doesn’t think he’s seen his old friend ever this enamoured by someone, and it’s simply enjoyable teasing the cool-headed Comte.
“Ma cherie, what’s gotten you so happy this particular evening?” Comte asks your smiling form with his own, small grin. The light in his eyes leaves at your next words, however.
“Leonardo and I went out to town!” Your ramblings continue despite the hollow reactions of your beloved.
He isn’t very keen on punishments and would rather get to the root of the problem first so, excusing himself for a moment, he quickly makes his way towards the library, gives a nice punch to a smirking Leonardo’s shoulder, then makes his way back to your lounging form in his bedroom.
Quirking a brow, you tilt your head at the man, “That was quick. What’d you do?”
Placing his arms on either side of the armchair, he lowers his face towards yours, a handsome smile on that elegant face of his. “It is nothing you need to be concerned with, princess.”
And before you could even react, his lips are on yours, kissing you in a way that only leaves you speechless when he finally pulls away.
It had been a long night. You should have known when he pulled out the “princess” card.

Fickle Love (Akaashi x Reader x Bokuto)
A/N: So this was supposed to be for Akaashi's birthday...whoops. But its here now lmao ngl I just kinda wrote with no idea in mind and this is what ended happening so yeah. Hope you enjoy and happy late birthday to Akaashi 💞
Details: 7.8 pages 2,758 words
Date: December 8th, 2020
Warnings: Mentions of poly relationships I guess, angst if you squint, Gn! Reader not really a warning but I didn't know where else to put it
Theme: Akaashi wasn't the best when it came to love. Having a habit of ignoring you and burying himself in work. Leading you to turn to Bokuto which leads to some revelations and a question for Akaashi.
Tumblr media
Love was a fickle thing Akaashi knew. People fell in and out of love all the time so he never trusted love. He didn't want love he wanted to avoid it. Avoid the heartbreak he was positive would follow. But instead he met you a bright-eyed student in his class. It took almost nothing for you to mesh yourself into his life completely and making yourself comfortable like you belonged there.
It took even less time for you to weasel your way into his heart and make yourself comfortable. Only a year after you'd met and he asked you out deciding that love may not have been as fickle as he thought.
Four years later and he knew he had been wrong love was indeed fickle and his proof was in the sight across the street from him. There you stood hands clasped around Bokuto's as he kissed your cheek. He waved before running off and Akaashi rushed home preparing for the worst.
A few hours later you slipped through the door "Keiji? I'm home!" You called hearing the soft pads of feet come up to you. Love was fickle he knew you were going to lie when he asked his next question "Hey Y/n. What did you do today?" You suprised him though. Only after you'd gotten over the shock of being called Y/n and not darling.
"I went to lunch with Bokuto today," You said happily slipping off your coat and hanging it up. He certainly didn't expect you to be honest about what you did today. He loosened up a tad bit in response "Oh? Why?" You laughed at his question "Bo needs contact with us you know that. But you haven't been answering his calls so we went shopping and I filled him in on how you were. Afterwards I treated him to lunch as a thank you," You smiled up at him eyes bright with nothing hidden.
"Yeah? Did you guys hold hands so he wouldn't lose you?" He joked and you shook your head "He grabbed my hands at the end of lunch because I promised him I'd bring you next time," you had laughed remembering the incident. Relief flooded him then no of course you weren't cheating on him that'd be insane. You were as loyal as Bokuto was plus he couldn't keep a secret to save his life and neither could you. He relaxed as he realized how wrong he was to assume something.
"Im sorry," He said suddenly while you tilted your head in confusion. "What for?" You had asked before Akaashi leaned down and pressed a kiss to your forehead. "I forgot to give you your welcome home kiss," He rolled off casually hiding the fear he'd felt earlier. This fear had only continued to grow as the days went on but it was his fault anyway.
_______________________________________________________
"Keiji are you free today?" "No I'm busy," "Oh...Okay," 
"Keiji we haven't gone on a date in weeks!" "Im not stopping you from going out somewhere," "I want to go out with you though,"
"Keiji-" "Im busy Y/n,"
Two weeks this cycle continued as you walked to Akaashi's at home office. Two taps against the door and you opened it "Kei-" His eyes snapped up frustration was on his face but he took a breath before it faded. "What?" You sighed turning to leave again "...Im going out to lunch with Kotaro again. He says hi by the way," You left the room quickly and Akaashi blinked 'Kotaro?' Surely you meant Bokuto but there was no way you two were on a first name basis it'd only been a few days since the last lunch.
His eyes landed on the calender and he froze what had only been a few days to him was actually two weeks but still too short for a first name basis. You'd only know Bokuto for a few months and he'd known the male for years and still never used his first name.
He sighed returning to his work. He'd question you when you got back from lunch he didn't have the time to right now. Nor did he know your location so going to find you was like a needle in a haystack. A very big bustling city of a haystack and the needle being you with a slightly bigger needle in the shape of a volleyball player next to you.
He continued work for a few hours before his office door was thrown open. He expected many things when he looked up but he didn't expect Bokuto. But what got him was the fact that Bokuto was furious it was a look he'd never seen before on him. The glare he had on his face was enough to make Akaashi freeze. 
He knew Bokuto was typically happy like a dog but right now he felt fearful since now he staring down an angry German Shepard who was defending their owner. It was silent for a long moment before Bokuto spoke. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" Akaashi felt his blood turn to ice at the tone Bokuto used.
"W-what?" He cursed silently at his own stutter Bokuto would latch onto the weakness he showed. "Whats today Akaashi?" Bokuto had asked in that same icy tone. It was so razor sharp and cold that Akaashi was convinced the room cooled and ten degrees.
"...Its December 1st Bokuto-san," He elected to answer the question instead of ask why Bokuto didn't call him Keiji. Based on the mood Bokuto was displaying he didn't expect to be called Keiji. However supplying the date only seemed to rile him up more as his glare sharpened.
Akaashi shivered involuntarily at it "Are you forgetting something?" He barked out and it was then that Akaashi realized Bokuto hadn't blinked yet. "No," he was confident in the answer. Your birthday wasn't until b/d and his was in four days. Bokutos had already passed but said male wouldn't have been mad at him. Sad maybe but not mad.
"Oh really? Then tell me why Y/n is at my place crying because you forgot that today is your anniversary," Bokuto had stepped towards him in anger and Akaashi took in involuntarily step back in fear. "They're at your place?" Akaashi asked and Bokutos jaw clenched.
"Yeah. And they are going to stay there until you sort yourself out," Bokuto growled turning and slamming the door closed with enough force to crack it. Akaashi stood frozen for a few extra moments trying to regain his composure after being afraid. He shook his head as he processed Bokuto's last sentence.
No you'd always come back to him, even if a fight had broken out between him and you, you would always come back. You had to come back he was your fiancé and the wedding was going to be in the upcoming w/f/s/s so he continued to work shaking off his encounter with Bokuto that had manage to worm a tiny bit of fear back into his heart.
__________________________________________________
Akaashi didn't fully leave his office again until December 5th. He'd left it plenty of times before then but only for something quick eat or the bathroom or something to drink. In these moments he never bothered to look around the place but now on his birthday he did.
He expected to be greeted by your sparkling voice like you had done for the past four years but instead the house was silent. "Y/n?" He called out walking around the house was still perfectly clean. The last time he could recall hearing you was on the first with the vacuum running and the patter of your feet running around.
Since then he realizes the house had been silent except for his movements. As he walked into the dining room something glinted on the table in the early morning light. When he turned to look he froze there was your engagement ring. The thin band of silver sat there almost mockingly on a yellow sticky note.
He picked up the note and written on it were a few simple words. 'They aren't coming home - Bokuto' his brain filled in the missing words Bokuto had told him a few days ago "Not until I fix myself," he mumbled thumbing at the sticky in his hands. He knew what Bokuto meant he'd been borderline ignoring you for weeks to work.
Thoughts of your anniversary had left his mind but he didn't think it was that bad until right now. Forgetting had been the final nail in the coffin for you but he still had a chance. You weren't gone forever just temporarily misplaced. He rushed to shower and go buy flowers his brain running a mile a minute trying to figure out how to get you back and apologize.
He felt nervous and he was unsure of why until he remembered where you had taken up residence. Bokuto had never been scary to him, just a bright ball of happiness but the fear Bokuto had instilled in him a few days ago had lingered, and he was about to walk right into the lion's den.
__________________________________________________
He couldn't see you as he approached the door. Maybe you were tucked away upstairs or in a place the windows didn't show but he'd seen Bokuto. The male was pacing clearly on edge and definitely dangerous but Akaashi would have to face him sooner or later so with a shaking hand he knocked.
Only half a second later the door swung open and Bokuto stood there mouth set in a hard line. Akaashi fought to supress the shiver that wanted to trail up his spine. "Is Y/n here?" He asked and once again cursed himself for sounding so meek. It was just Bokuto he wouldn't hurt him the man couldn't even hurt a fly! Although that sentiment didn't hold much when he felt like he was staring down the loaded barrel of a gun.
"Yes," Bokuto answered after a few beats of silence. His eyes raked over Akaashi's form judging him and seeing if he was ready to have Y/n back. "Can I see them? I'd like to talk," He was definitely playing with fire when Bokuto looked back up at his eyes. "About what?" He asked lowly Akaashi noted that Bokuto was staying quiet which meant you had to be downstairs. "I'd like to apologize for ignoring them and forgetting our anniversary," Bokuto nodded once before swinging the door closed.
He blinked in mild suprise "Bo-Bokuto-san?" He questioned wondering where he went wrong that warranted the door being closed. He was about to knock again when the door opened revealing you. Your h/c hair was slightly messy and e/c eyes half lidded in sleep.
What Akaashi didn't like was the MSBY jersey that swallowed you figure. The number 12 emblazoned on the front and long enough to cover your thighs. He couldn't tell if you were wearing pants but he hoped you did. You never walked around his house like this unless it was after a fun night but he couldn't assume things. Not now and he especially couldn't accuse you of cheating when Bokuto was on the staircase right behind you.
He could see that the golden eyed male was poised to attack when the conversation would start heading south. You tilted your head in confusion "Hello Akaashi," You had mumbled and he did flinch then. No pet names or his first name no, you had decided on formal. "Hi darling," He whispered the pet name but you merely shook your head.
"Why are you here?" The genuine confusion on your face made Akaashi feel a lot worse about everything. "Im here to apologize and seeing as its my birthday id like my present from you to be going on one date with me," He said slowly "Please," was tacked on as an afterthought. You turned your head eyes meeting Bokuto's and Akaashi hated the jealousy that crawled up his spine when his eyes softened.
"Um actually Akaashi I wanted to talk to you about something," Your hands had balled into fists tightly gripping the hem of the shirt you wore. A nervous habit you had whenever something scared you. He felt his heart drop in response to those words and you shook your head. "No no! It's nothing bad- well I guess that depends on how you feel about it," You were quick to try and sooth him and Akaashis heart swelled at the fact that right now even if you weren't getting along you still worried about him.
He didn't even realize you had led him inside until he was on the couch. His eyes trailed over you figure as you sat across from him. The shirt rode up enough exposing part of your thigh and Akaashi could see the hem of a pair of shorts. They followed their path until his eyes rested on the new gold band around your ring finger. It was decorated in a series of small gems that were the same blue as his eyes and he took a deep breath.
"What is it?" He lightly questioned when the silence began suffocating him. Bokuto was behind him somewhere he felt the stare being burned into his back. The second this conversation possibly turned south Bokuto was ready to jump in. "Well...I was wondering how you felt about the two of us becoming um...three of us?" You looked down afterwards hands nervously ringing together.
"...three of us?" He wanted more clarification were you implying a kid or something else? You hummed meeting his eyes before they flickered to the male that was behind him 'oh' it pieced itself together then. You were implying a poly relationship with him and Bokuto. He must have been quiet for too long since your hands began rubbing at your sides.
He scrambled for an answer he knew he was unbothered by it but this was...The two of you were only a few months away from getting married and you wanted to add Bokuto into the mix? Now of all times? He took a shuttering breath as he thought.
"Well...I guess I have to call the restaurant and tell them to change the reservation for three people then," he offered a small smile and your head whipped up. "Really?" You whispered and he could only supply a nod. 
"Yeah now when I'm busy with work the both of you can harass me into taking a break," it was a poor attempt at a joke but you had laughed anyway. He heard a chuckle from behind him as well and he breathed out a sigh of relief. "Keiji are you sure? I don't wanna make you uncomfortable or anything...," you trailed off and he smiled "im sure but are you sure about Bokuto? Hes a little chaotic," He asked "Hey!" Bokuto had an immediate reaction to the accusation.
You laughed reaching out and taking his hand "So is it a fancy dinner place?" You asked as Bokuto came over to take your free hand. He watched your thumb move back and forth across Bokutos hand a comforting gesture and he noticed the minute shake of Bokuto's hand. Unconsciously he reached out with his free hand and took Bokuto's which seemed to startle him slightly as wide gold eyes met his.
Akaashi gave a light squeeze and Bokuto settled with a sigh. "Its the restaurant I originally proposed at so yeah I'd go with fancy," he answered after a second. "You're making me get dressed up for your birthday dinner? Despicable really," you dramatically sighed and he found himself laughing. "Well I suppose we don't have to go since you've already given me the best present I could ask for today," He smiled tilting his head to the side and looking at Bokuto who was sitting cross-legged on the floor with a look of concern on his face.
"You alright Bo?" He looked up at the unfamiliar nickname eyes meeting Akaashi's once again. "M'fine just...I don't own a suit," He said quietly. The silence that stretched afterwards for a long moment before you broke it. "Kotaro what do you mean you don't own a suit you're a professional athlete!" "It wasn't an issue until now!" He shouted back love was fickle yes but as he watched you and Bokuto interact he knew
It was fickle but he wouldn't trade it in for anything.

☆ [nostalgic] summer romance!au taeyong  hbbd to our beloved leader! | find others here: johnny | haechan | taeil
mark is giving you a quizzical look from over the counter, fingers tapping against the register
“taeyong? no, i haven’t seen him. doesn’t he usually disappear during the summer?
mark is right
taeyong does tend to vanish just as the weather gets warmer and there isn’t an excuse of class or work for him to make his presence known
you heard rumors about how his parents send him abroad to some kind of family owned estate, vast and beautiful and far away from the mundane place you call home
everyone is always saying he’s hiding something. that something, everyone whispers is money 
he has to be rich, no one else has the kind of luxury of having a summer long holiday to the other side of the world
but you doubt it, if his family is so loaded, taeyong wouldn’t be spending the rest of the year sitting across from you in physics 
you’re sure wealthy kids can afford something better than public schools
“actually......”
you look up and mark takes of the uniform hat he’s supposed to wear for his job at the local burger joint, he scratches the top of his head and then snaps his fingers
“i did see him not too long ago, maybe - on monday? he was standing next to his bike in front of the trails.”
“as in the forest trails?”
mark nods, he looks like he wants to say something else but the voice of his manager makes him scurry to the back with a final a wave
you take the medium soda you ordered, the ice melted and the cup wet under your fingertips
whats taeyong doing going to the mountains all alone?
its getting dark by the time you make your way halfway through the trail, you know mark said he saw taeyong monday and its been three days since then
but you just wanted to make sure, even though you’re here and you haven’t seen one other person through the trees 
finally you think you should turn around and go back - but you look to the side and spot a bike leaned up against a mossy, large boulder
its off the trail - so its kind of creepy - but you inch just a bit closer, close enough to see taeyongs name scribbled on the middle bar, below the seat
the clouds are slowly and surely coming in over the light blue sky, so now its just going to get dark and rain
but you think just exploring for another five or so minutes cant hurt
you push past some bushes and wander until you finally pull back some branches from a sagging old willow and see the entrance to a small, but open meadow
in the middle of it - someone is splayed out and reaching up toward the sun
“t-taeyong?”
his hand drops and turns his head, the last droplets of sunlight flicker off his skin
he doesn’t say anything for a while and neither do you
until he sits up and asks you what you’re doing off the trail
you know you can ask him the same thing, but something stops you from stringing the sentence together
instead you feel the darker clouds grow heavy in the sky and soon enough you feel the drizzle
“i just got lost’
you lie and taeyong stands up from the meadow, pointing behind you
“we should go before the storm comes all the way in.”
taeyong leads the way back to the main path, grabbing his bike as you two make way back down to the opening of the forest
you sort of fall behind him, eyes on the broad of his back 
you want to make conversation - but you dont know what to say
once you reach the end, the rain has gotten stronger and you ask taeyong if he wants you to drive him back to his place
motioning shyly to your car
he smiles, and even through the darkening weather, it seems to make his face glow
“that’s alright, thanks.”
and then he hops on his bike, his figure smaller and smaller as he rides down the road
you watch it, getting drenched in the process, but something about seeing him makes the rain feel like nothing more than morning dew
you go back to the meadow the next day, earlier - closer to noon - and taeyong is there
at first you tell yourself: stop being weird, just turn around and leave him alone. you might have had classes with him but its not like you two were even friends! hes going to think you’re crazy for showing up here again!
but something inside you refuses to let you give up
you clear your throat and call out to him
taeyong doesn’t turn his head this time, in fact he doesn’t move from where he’s flat on his back in the middle of the grass and wild flowers
panic sets over you and you rush over, knees hitting the ground as you hover over him
his eyes are closed, but the corner of his mouth twitches a bit at the small sound that you make
he’s just sleeping.
you realize, tracing the godly lines that make up his almost impossibly handsome face
he manages to look magical even like this.
“hello?”
taeyong’s eyes are open now - lazily, amber browns staring up at you curiously
you jerk your head away and feel your shoulders stiffen
what do i say? what do i do? he must think im such a freak-
“are you lost again?”
his sits up, propping himself on his elbows and looking at you innocently
“n-no! i just - i um - since i know the way now. i mean i saw your bike again. i just - um-”
the words get tangled in your mouth and so you give up and taeyong doesn’t look as annoyed or as angry as you expect
he just smiles, the same smile he gave you when you two parted ways last night
“a-are you always here?”
you blurt out, trying to compensate for your lack of an answer to his original question
taeyong nods, “i am always here.”
“everyone thinks you go abroad during the summer, b-but you’re really here right?”
its weird that you pose it like a question, so you laugh it off in hopes he wont catch on
but taeyong turns his eyes back toward the sun and falls back against the pillow of flowers
“nope, i dont go abroad. im right here.”
you look up at the sky, nothing special about it, just bright and blinding like any summer days
you wonder how he doesnt get bored just ........... laying here and looking up at it 
“people in town like it though.”
he suddenly adds and you shift so instead of sitting back on your heels, you’re laying down beside him 
its the closest you’ve ever been to him and you have half a thought he might shift away uncomfortably when your elbows brush but ..... he doesnt
“like what?”
he pauses, a long pause and you almost think he isnt going to answer as your eyes trace the wings of a butterfly that pass by
“they like that i disappear. i think they like it better when im not around.”
you sit up, confused and look at taeyong
“but people are always talking about you-”
“right, but i dont think that means they like me.”
he follows the same butterfly you were just looking at and you try to think of a counterpoint to argue
but you cant
taeyong is the most talked about person in your town, from his statue like looks to the rumors circulating about his familys wealth
but
youve heard the jealousy-induced whispers too
you cant lie and say you havent
you carefully lay back down and take a second in the silence of the forest to think
“i like you.”
you hear taeyong turn his head but you’re nervous about saying it outloud and so you can’t bring yourself to read the expression he might be making
“i dont know much about you, but .......... i think i like you. we had one class together last semester, physics and you would always help me and other people. sometimes i wanted to ask if you wanted to come with me to go get lunch but i was-”
you’re rambling, your aware so you stop
but taeyong whispers,
“but you were?”
now you turn to look at him and you’re surprised to see the usual glassy far-off look in his eyes has turned serious
“i was sc-scared? i just thought you wouldnt care to ......... hang out with me?”
you think your palms are sweating and you hide them in your pockets, taeyong is looking at you - really looking at you - for the first time ever and it stirs a feeling youre not used to in the pit of your stomach
“i would have loved to.”
his voice is faint, but there’s no one else but you and him, so you hear him clearly
you giggle, a nervous habit, and then swallow it down
“well - now i know. ill invite you when- when the summer is over.”
he turns back and closes his eyes, the sun basks down on him like the grace of a goddess 
nothing else is said. when it starts to darken, and your hungry stomach makes a noise that keeps you embarrassed
you and taeyong walk back down the trail. you offer him a ride again, but he says now and rides off with a smile
you get into this habit now, you get to the meadow - earlier and earlier - hoping one day to beat taeyong to it
but he’s always there before you
you also start bringing lunch and when you first offer half of the sandwich you’ve made to taeyong he looks too shy to take it
but on the third try, he gives in
you also..................talk a lot more with him 
and realize you were right, taeyong is as kind as you had thought him to be
and his gentleness isnt lost on you from how he helps you up from the grassy meadow when its time to go - to how he talks in a small voice to forest creatures that scamper past you two
you never thought you’d end up spending your whole summer off the trail, laying around beside lee taeyong
but not a day of it feels wasted, even though you both do ultimately nothing
one evening, as you’re walking down the trail, you both come to a stop in front of the mossy rock that taeyong’s bike should be leaned up against
except that its gone
and for the first time - due to circumstance - taeyong accepts the ride back home
the car is quiet, as are the streets that you drive through to get to his house
suddenly, without any thought you ask taeyong;
“do you sometimes go up to the meadow because you want to disappear?”
you glance at him in the rearview mirror and see hes already looking at you
“not just because you think others want you too?”
his lips thin, but his eyes don’t flatter from yours
“yes.”
you nod, shoulders tightening a little as you focus your own gaze on the road
“a-are you ok with my company?”
you make a turn and are worried by the silence that follows. taeyong’s house is coming into view and you realize he could just get out without answering you
but when you come to a stop, neither of you moves a muscle
you let your hand drop from the wheel and just as it does, taeyong catches it
his fingers are warm and his palm is soft you let out a small gasp and turn to see he still has his eyes on you
“im fine with it.”
a dust of pink comes over the bridge of his nose and spreads down onto his cheeks
“im fine disappearing with you. no one said i had to do it alone.”
that feeling in the pit of your stomach that you get around him sometimes seems to bubble and burst into a flurry storm of wings and glitter inside you
your eyes move on their own, skimming down his face to his lips in an anxious line
holding his hand is different from all those times you’d lay elbow to elbow with him
and thinking about kissing him..................is a jump over a fence higher than just the thoughts youve had about getting to know him better
you think your shoulders shake and taeyong looks like he wants to lean in 
but the lights on his porch flicker on, and he says he’ll see you tomorrow
his warmth leaves your hand, but right as he steps out of the car, you scramble over to the passengers seat
one hand on the window and you look at him
“h-how will you get to the meadow, without your bike?”
he startles, but frowns
“right,i think i can walk ther-”
“i can pick you up.”
taeyong smiles, this smile - as soft and as sweet as the rest - is just a bit more......happy.
“ok - can you come by at around nine?”
“i promise to be here.”
he hesitates and you cant believe you’re about to say this, but you do
“want to seal it with a kiss?”
he looks over his shoulder, his front door hasnt opened yet
he leans down and its a little awkward and weird, but its cute and when you break away you wave goodnight to him 
and he trips over the sidewalk as he waves back
the next day, when you two are laying back in the flowers
you turn to him
“is it ok if we re-do our kiss?”
he laughs, “i wanted to ask too, kissing through a car window is a bit-”
you dont let him finish, rolling over to take his face in your own - you feel that smile of his on your lips
when summer comes to an end and taeyong shows back up in town, everyones gossip stirs back up
where’d he go this time, franc? italy? thailand? australia?
no, the only place he went - you want to tell them - is to the forest, and to that meadow, and to the center of your heart
you slip your hand into his when he comes to greet you outside one of the classroom 
and all of the gossip dies at the tip of peoples tongues
even now all these years later
when you and taeyong want to “disappear” for a little while
there’s a secret space, just for you two
let everyone else think you’re off in some other place - some other country - some other continent
disappearing together, is way better than disappearing alone.
