omg the cole's sister one is so cute and funny and reminded me of my parents and brothers lol can u do one like that again except u secretly hued with alex but nothing is official at all it kinda happened nd now ur acting weird around eachother and cole is like wtf is wrong w u guys
He was trying to help you get comfortable in college, but little did you both know that getting comfortable escalated quickly with a few alcoholic beverages and now you had slept together. Alex Turcotte was one of your brothers best friends.
“You can’t tell Cole or Brock.” You said not watching him get dressed before he quickly left your dorm not even saying a word to you just getting dressed and leaving causing you to let a deep sigh collapsing back onto your bed knowing you ruined your friendship with a guy you had a slight crush on.
“You ready?” You asked once Cole opened his dorm door letting you inside seeing Alex sitting there in the living space with Owen watching television.
“Yeah, does this match?”
“Not really,” you said sending him off to go change his outfit and you stood there awkwardly by the door not even wanting to make eye contact with Alex.
“H-Hi, y/n.” Owen said waving and you looked over at him on the couch having zoned out for a minute, “hi, Owen.” You whispered looking over at Alex who just nodded his head, “well I’m going to head off.” Alex got up off the couch and Owen gave him a look, “turcs, you live here?” Cole asked and Alex froze looking between him and you, “y-yeah I know I just I have plans.”
“But what about me?” Owen asked and Alex motioned for him to come along, “yeah no we have plans, come on.”
“W-we do?” Owen asked confused getting up off the couch following Alex out ther dorm and you let out a sigh leaning your back against the wall knowing you messed this up. You should have never done anything with Alex, but you were drunk and it was a mistake.
“Ready?” Cole whispered, you opened your eyes nodding your head walking out of his dorm following Cole down to his car.
Things had been different between you and Alex, you both used to be so close but that one night changed everything. You would come over to their dorm and Alex would have to get up and leave, it made you miss one of your best friends, you used to love hanging out with Alex, but things weren’t the same anymore.
“Hey,” you came into their dorm seeing it was just Alex sitting there that one evening, you were all dressed up because your parents were in town and you were going out to dinner, “oh umm Coles not home.”
“Oh,” you whispered, “well umm can I just use your bathroom? I didn’t finish my hair.” You pointed at the bathroom and he nodded his head and you went in plugging in your straightener.
“So what’s been going on with you?” You asked seeing Alex come over standing in the door way, “what?”
“Come on, don’t think I haven’t noticed. I come here and you’re all ‘I have to go’ and panic.” You said starting to straighten your hair not even looking at him in the mirror.
“It’s nothing personal—“
“How come it feels so? Alex, you’ve made me feel like I’ve done something bad.” You cut him off and he took your straightener from you helping you out.
“I just–“
“Hey is y/n here—oh.” Come saw you both in the bathroom together and Alex handed you your straighter back, “He was just helping me.” You said and now Alex left the dorm the door slamming behind him causing you to jump.
“What’s his deal?”
“No idea.”
“So what’s up with you and Alex?” Owen asked sitting across from you at lunch in the dinning hall together, Owen had told you when your name got brought up in the locker room there was a weird vibe from Alex and he always got up and left, it started concerning Brock that something was going on, but he dropped it because Alex wouldn’t budge telling him what was going on.
“I don’t know,” you sighed dropping your fork and he nodded his head, “something happen between you guys? You used to be so close?”
“Promise not to tell Cole?” You whispered not looking up from your food when you heard Owen speak, “y/n, what’s going on?”
“Alex and I slept together like weeks ago and now he won’t even look at me anymore.” You looked up from your plate seeing Owen slowly processing your words.
“Like sex?”
“Yes.”
“Like–like no.” He shook his head trying to not believe you watching him try to put things together, “that does make a bit of sense though, he came back from somewhere a couple weeks ago all blushy and sputtery could barely get a sentence out of him the only one we could get was ‘I have to shower’, and man he took a lot of showers that day.” He laughed and a smile creeped onto your face.
“I just really miss him, I guess I ruined it—“
“Y/n, come on, don’t say that.”
“But I did! Obviously that was enough to jeopardize our friendship—“
“What was?” Cole came over sitting down next to you and you gave Owen a look hoping he wouldn’t let you down.
“I umm I threw her box of tampons out the window yesterday.” He lied looking at you shaking your head, “oh? Umm okay.”
“Yeah Owens a real asshole for that.”
“Mhmm,” He said and Alex sat down next to Owen and you both stared at each other for a moment before going back to your food and you got up, “I’ll just do the job for you.” You said looking directly at Alex shoving your chair.
“What the hell was that?”
“Is Cole here? He said to come by?” You said seeing Alex behind the door, he shook his head letting you inside, “he should be coming back from class soon though.”
“Okay, I’ll just wait in his room then.” You said going into your brothers bedroom sitting down on his bed when Alex came into the bedroom, “I’m sorry for being weird around you, I just really like you and I don’t know that night I guess was just amazing and I didn’t want you to not feel the same way.” He finally admitted, you smiled running your fingers through his hair, “Alex, that night meant the same for me too, but I hated that you kept ignoring me. You made me feel like shit.”
“I know, and I’m so sorry I was just scared you wouldn’t like me as a friend anymore?”
“well I like you a lot more than that, that night was amazing.” You whispered intertwining your fingers together, a smile pressing onto his face.
“Good, Good that night meant something for us both then—“
“what night?” Cole came in the room throwing his keys on the night stand that was in between their beds.
“I umm I’m going to take a shower—“
“Alex,” you laughed pulling him back, “it’s not important, Cole.”
“Okay well glad you’re both getting along after your night together a couple weeks ago.”

Marichat May Day 21: Fireworks
Summary:
Chat Noir and Kitty Noire decide to enjoy the night of Heroes' day with their civilian friends
-------------
After a hectic Heroes' Day filled with activites here and there and lot's of places and meetings to attend to, the four defenders of Paris are finally relaxing for a bit in a rooftop with views to Place de la Concorde. They chit-cat about their plans for the night activites of Heroes' Day and about what they had seen during the rest of the day. When the time comes, Lordbug and Ladybug stand up and leave early to meet some friends as they had already decided before. Some moments after the bugs are no longer in sight, the cats also stand up and leave the place, running with a certain destination in mind as they wager their tails playfully from side to side. They land perfectly at Marin's roof nd greet the twins who already were there drinking a cup of tea while waitng for Chat Noir and Kitty Noire.
"It's nice to see you" says Marinette.
"Busy day I guess" says Marin.
"You have no idea" says Chat Noir stratching a bit.
"But at last, we have some time to spend with our favourite civilian friends!" says Kitty happily.
"Do you know what events are going to happen tonight by chance?" asks Marin.
"Nope, it wouldn't be fair if only my Lady and My Lord were to be the only ones not knowing what's in store for tonight" says Chat Noir.
"One would think that the heroes would be informed of what would be going on during their day" points Marinette.
"Well, they want to make it a surprise for us, so I don't think that's bad" says Kitty.
"At least, we do know one thing for tonight, don't we sis?" says Marin looking to Marinette.
"Yes, we do know something" says Marinette.
"Huh? What is it?2 asks Kitty curiously.
"We know where will we be having dinner, because our parents decided to invite you two to have dinner" says Marin.
"Oh, but we wouldn't want to impose or anything" says Chat.
"My father has forgiven you for last time, you know?" says Marinette.
"And that's exactly another reason to refuse the invitation. It'd be so embarrassing" complains Chat.
"Oh come on brother, it would be rude to refuse the invitation" says Kitty making puppy eyes to convince Chat.
"There is some quiche, pizza and even focaccia among other things for tonight~" says Marinette taunting the catboy.
"O-Okay, we'll accept the invitation, but out of respect, this is definitely not because of the food" says Chat salivating.
Marin chuckles. "That would be much more convincing if your mouth wasn't as watery as it is right now" says Marin.
"Kids, supper is ready!" calls Sabine from downstairs.
"Shall we go then?" asks Marinette with a smile.
"Sure" says Kitty Noire.
The four of them went downstairs and the cats properly greeted Tom and Sabine as well of thanking them for inviting them to dinner, to which both adults just nodded and smiled happily. They all sat down around the dinning table and ate at their hearts content, especially Chat and Kitty since they were enamoured by the food. After singing some praises to Tom and Sabine for their food and for their bakery as well, Tom proposed to play a round of videogames with the cats to see how good they were. While they played, Tom and Sabine were complimenting the heroes for their achievements in fighting crime as well for their gaming abilities. In the end, Chat only managed to win once against Tom and Sabine beat them all mercilessly before Marin recieved a message from Alen about the night time activities.
"Look at all those activities" says Sabine impressed. "We could go to that night market in the ninth arrondissement, we might find something interesting".
"We're going ther then!" says Tom happily, but then he turns to the teens. "What about you kids? Is there somewhere you'd like to go?"
"Don't worry about the time for tonight" says Sabine to her children. "It's a festivity day and you're in good hands I believe".
"Should we maybe go and see this street performances near the Louvre?" proposes Marinette.
"That's fine for me" says Marin shrugging off. "Maybe we run into Alix and Alex thought" says as he looks at the cats.
"Don't worry Mar, we've got this covered" says Kitty smirking. "Remember that time you caught us as civilians?"
"Please, don't tell me that you're going to detransform" says Marinette worried.
"Worry not Marinette, this cats have thought of everything" says Chat. "As our civilian selves, we have the disguise you saw us on minus the sunglasses, but we also added these big plastic mask of our hero selves! No one will recognize us since lot's of people will be wearing heroes' masks".
"That's actually quite a good idea" recognizes Tom. "Will you be able to transform back in case anything happens?"
"Yes, we have a lot of cheese to bribe the things that power us up to behave and to transform us" explains Kitty.
"You need cheese to transform?" asks Sabine surprised.
"Unfortunately, yes. The smellier the better, that's how our kwamis like it" says Chat. "The kwamis are the ones who give us power and transform us and ours are cheese gluttons".
"Must be tough to mask the smell" says Marin.
"Don't even get me started with that. My classmates think I have an obsession with cheese" says Kitty.
"Oh, look at the time" says Marinette looking her phone. "We should maybe hurry up and get going if we want to get there early".
"Have fun kids" says Sabine waving as the teens rush to go outside.
Not much later, they get close to one of the allies nearby the Louvre and the cat-themed heroes detransform. As they had said, their outfits were nothing like the usual clothes they wear everyday and they had masks of themselves on, so not even Marin or Marinette could see their faces nor recognize them. Once the kwamis were fed and hidden, the gang run towards the permormance site and watched excitedly how different dancers moved at the rythm of hip-hop and some singers roasted eachoters in rap battles. During the performance, they met with the Kubdel twins as predicted, who were accompanied by Kim, Jin, Max and Mathilda. When the performace ended, they said goodbye and went to the next place, Eiffel's tower, where Jagged Stone was playing along with Clara Nightingale and the arising band Kitty Section.
Upon arriving to the entrance of the improvised enclosure where the concert was going to be held, someone pulled Marinette aside. It turns out that the one who pulled Marinette aside to get her attention was no other than Jagged's assistant, Penny. She told Marinette and Marin that since the three groups playing that night had some of their clothes tailored and designed by Marinette and Marin, they had a space reserved for them and any friends they brought with them. Between each concert, Jagged, Clara and Kitty Section paid a visit to the designers to have a chat, all of them happy to see their favourite designers assisting their concerts.
After the concert, they looked again at the night activities and selected one unanimously: Fireworks from the Seine. They went to an alley and Chat and Kitty transformed back into their hero identities to have some privileged seats for the show. They carried Marinette and Marin all the way to Notre Dame and sat in a hidden spot on the roof where the views of Paris and the Seine were amazing. There was still some time until the fireworks, so they relaxed a bit and talked about their everyday. Before the fireworks started, Kitty asked Marinette to change her place under the pretext of sitting next to Marin during the fireworks, while in reality her intentions where to make Mari sit with Chat to give them a gentle push, even if she definitelyappreciated spending such a romantic moment with Marin.
"Do we know the exact hour for te fireworks?" asks Chat Noir.
"They'll start anytime know" says Marinette looking at the horizon. "I'm quite excited to see them, they are always so beautiful".
"I doubt their beauty can hold a candle to yours thought" says Chat teasingly.
"You flirty cat" says Marinette rolling her eyes.
"I think maybe we should go somewhere else Kitty, because they seem to be about to kiss" jokes Marin.
"Indeed, who would have thught that tonight we'd become family" replies Kitty having fun.
"And when is your wedding then?" asks Chat Noir. "You two seem so awfully close to eachother".
"It was yesterday, I forgot to send you an invitation" replies Kitty sassily.
"Then mine too, because I don't remember you two being so close" teases Marinette as a payback.
"It must have been the mailm-" tries to says Kitty, but the fireworks lit the sky and all of their attention turns to the fireworks.
"Woah, so amazing" says Marin.
"It always leaves me with all this excitement" says Marinette energically. "I think I could lift Chat if I wanted to".
"She really gets into the mood" says Kitty Noire surprised.
"I never saw Marinette this excited since that time she found those super fabric rolls" add Chat.
Marinette blushes a bit awkwardy because all of their comments. "Sorry if I get too hyped by them" apologizes the girl.
"Don't worry Princess, it's cute to se you like that" says Kitty smiling.
"She took the words from my mouth" says Chat Noir. "Your cuteness' levels skyrocketed for a moment".
"Now, now. If you flirt with her that much I'll have to call you two in-laws" jokes Marin while Marinette hides her blushy face.
"You could call me something else if you wanted to Prince Charming" says Kitty winking at Marin.
"Okaay, time to stop" says Cat. "For real flirting you cn go somewhere else, kiss and whatever, but not in front of me please".
"Says the one who is holdig back the urges to cuddle with my sister" points Marin and Chat sits straight.
"I'm not holding any urges back!" says Chat blushing.
"It would be more convincing if you weren't blushing brother" points Kitty.
"Come on Kitty, let's give them some space to calm down and stop blushing like red lightbulbs" says Marin.
Kitty Noir picks him up bridal style. "We'll come back later, make sure to kiss a lot!" says Kitty smugly.
"I'm going to skin Marin fo that" says Marinette blushing.
"Same here Princess" says Chat Noir.
They fell into an awkward silence, stealing glances from one another but not uttering a single word. As MArinette shivered, Chat got closer to her and offered his Jacket for her, which she refused to accept and they ended up sharing it instead so neitherof them would freeze. They stayed like that for some time, simply sitting next to each other without speaking until it was time to go back home. Meanwhile, not much far away, Marin and Kitty Noire were truly enjoying the fireworks. After a quick confession from both sides, the sat together holding hands with their heads resting on Marin's shoulder. They had some chaste kisses, afraid of exploring the other's lips by the mere fear of scaring the other for going 'too fast'. But they enjoyed the fireworks, much like the blushing messes known as Marinette and Chat Noir.

This chapter was so hard to write, it’s kinda dark and I want to get it right so sorry for the delay😅
Also I apologize if it’s a bit rough, this is my first attempt at writing something bigger than a Drabble or one shot.
What could have been CHAPTER 2: Changeling
“I hate you, I hate you so much!” Came a loud screech from deep within a reclusive forest near Magnolia.
”I'm so sorry sweetheart, you'll get through this I believe in you!”
”No you're not, you did this to me.” Lucy snapped as another contraction ripped through her body, causing her to curl in on herself.
At that moment Porlyusica had decided to make a rather grumpy appearance, annoyed at the late disturbance.
”Stop screaming the both of you. Yelling won't help your pain girl, the only thing that will help is to keep breathing nd patience.” She barked. ”And you, keep her calm, too much stress is not good for either the mother or your offspring. So stop squealing like a child and get to it!”
“Yes, Mam!” Natsu replied, his voice tight and dry as he watched his pained wife.
Her breaths had become labored now, each exhale seemed to speak a lifetime time of agony as they pulled themselves from her chest, only to start again a moment later. Tears brimmed her glazed eyes as she focused on the moon outside in an effort to distract herself from the pain.
Clouds had begun to gather on their trek to the witch’s hut, a light rain following soon after. Droplets pattered gently against the window as the hours began to pass.
One, two, five, eight, sixteen? Natsu lost track as he paced the edge of the room impatiently, casting furtive glances to Lucy as she seemed to growing steadily more restless.
Porlyusica made occasional appearances to check on the blonds progress, writing the occasional note and mixing herbs into a tea for Lucy to drink before disappearing again down the hall.
“What’s taking so long?” Natsu implored as the Witch once again, flinching slightly at the icy glare that fell upon him in irritation.
“You can’t rush life, child. Life does at it pleases. When your children are ready to join us they will. Your wife is almost dilated enough, just a bit longer brat.”
“...Fine” Natsu growled, slumping down onto a love seat. Staring down onto his scarred knuckles, he clenches and unclenches his trembling fingers.
Never before had he felt so helpless, so useless.
In the past whatever had hurt Lucy, made her cry, he always found a to stop her tears, to put an end to whatever caused her pain. Whether it was with his fists or with his words he would always protect her. His Lucy.
Now however he was faced with seeing her in pain and knowing he was the cause of it, even if she was being his children into the world, made him feel weak.
Getting up and striding over to the cot to her side, he thought she couldn’t be more beautiful. Lacing one hand into her hair gently and the other with her hand, Natsu leaned his forehead against hers .
“You have to be strong Lucy, for our future. For their future.” He murmured softly, pulling back to kiss her hair softly and gaze into her slightly glazed eyes.
“Natsu I-“ Lucy started before cutting off with a groan as another contraction ripples through her body, this time however it seems stronger than the others. They come in faster bursts, barely giving her time to breath in between.
Squeezing her husbands hand in a death grip, Lucy cried out as another wave came and went. Ragged breaths erupting from her mouth as she screamed for Porlyusica to come quickly.
Within minutes the main event had finally begun. Natsu stayed at the head of the bed with Lucy as Porlyuscia went to work. Glasses and tools clinked on a nearby table the witch had set up for the occasion, herbs and spices Natsu couldn’t even name were being sliced and grinder up rapidly. Most of which went into to a boiling cauldron, a bitter aroma filled the room until finally it was poured into a large mug for Lucy to chokingly drink.
“What is it?”
“Drink child, it’ll help with some of the pain and to help you relax when you push.”
Just like the smell it was bitter as acid, but Lucy chugged it all in desperation for at least some relief.
The last drop had barely passed her lips before the strongest surge of agony that night seized hold of her body.
“You’re ready. Now on the count of three I need you to start pushing for a count of eight and then take a break and repeat, Don’t forget to keep breathing!”
“You can do it sweetheart, I believe in you” Natsu whispered into her hair. Praises and compliments flowed almost absently, from her smile, her laugh, to the way she managed to put up with him all these years. He wanted her to know how much he loved her
“I LOVE YOU NATSU” Lucy’s voice rang, only to be drowned out by a small but powerful voice. Their first baby had finally been born.
“It’s a girl” Porlyusica murmured, gently cleaning the baby before wrapping it up in a clean towel and placing it on a heating rack.
She was a delicate little thing, small smile adorned her red chubby cheeks, her eyes squeezed shut as she wailed. And above it all a small tuft of salmon hair sat atop her little head in a fuzzy halo. She was beautiful.
“Nashi, Nashi Rose Dragneel” A soft voice broke Natsu’s daze as he looked at his exhausted wife.
“That’s perfect, my little Nashi” Natsu whispered, tears falling in a silent river down his cheeks. He had a daughter, he was a father.
“If you haven’t noticed we have one more on the way brats. You can weep later, we need to get this last one out, this one should be easier.”
Eight minutes passed before another tiny voice joined the din.
“It’s a boy” The witch sighed, cleaning off his face and having him join his sister.
Golden blond hair spiked up from his slightly more angular head, a frown gently pinching his face in annoyance at all the light and noise suddenly around him.
“Jonathan, Jonathan Igneel Dragneel.” Natsu said firmly.
“That’s a terrible name.” Lucy groaned, flopping back onto the pillows in exhaustion.
“Hey! You chose our daughters name, it’s only fair if I chose our sons. ‘Sides it rhymes.”
“Alright, alright, fine” Lucy laughed, wincing slightly at the pain still lancing up her sides faintly.
“You did beautiful, I’m so proud of you.” Natsu hummed before placing a quick kiss upon her lips and stroking her bangs out of her eyes.
“I want to hold my babies please, Porly”
“Porly?”
Silence answered them as they turned to look at the witch. Only to find her body laying limply upon the floor in a unconscious heap
A darkness seemed to have creeped into the room unbeknownst to the happy new parents, taking hold and strangling the older woman quietly in a hazy smoke.
Natsu quickly made his way across the room to check her pulse.
She was still alive, for now.
Raising her head with blood faintly trickeling from her mouth, a single word fell from her lips before her eyes rolled back in her head.
“Babies”
Goosebumps erupted down Natsu’s spine as his neck snapped towards the heating where the little bundles should have been.
“NATSU” Lucy cried, scrambling desperately to free herself from the sheets of her cot, terrified eyes locked to the ceiling in horror as Natsu’s gaze followed hers.
A cloaked figure stood stock still on the ceiling upside down, a silver mask concealing its face in the shape of a hideous grinning Fox.
“WHO ARE YOU” Natsu growled, his magic flaring threateningly at the intruder.
The figure only moved his arm in response, moving his cloak to the side to reveal a small blanketed bundle.
“ WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH MY FAMILY, YOU BASTARD.” Natsu roared, lunging forward in an attempt to grab the trespasser. But when he was centimeters away from grabbing the cloak, they seemed to vanish.
Appearing on the other side of the room, the figure beckons Natsu to follow almost mockingly.
Hissing in rage, flames began to lick and crackle up Natsu’s arms as he charged again. However for whatever reason he just couldn’t make contact, when he was sure he had hold of the kidnappers cloak they seemed to slip through his fingers like they were never there in the first place.
“GIVE ME BACK MY SON, DAMMIT”
Crashing through the window with Natsu close in toe, the fox ran deftly through the trees. Thunder clapped loudly over head, light streaking across the sky as rain began to pour heavily, blurring Natsu’s vision slightly.
“FIRE DRAGONS ROAR” Natsu bellowed as he sent a wave of flames after his target, only for them to barrel roll out of the way easily in mid air landing in the tree tops.
“Damn, who is this guy” Natsu snarled as the fox waved its finger back and forth at him before pointing to the bundle in armhold. The bundle was crying loudly now, the cold rain and screaming awoken the previously sleeping baby.
“Why do you want my son?” Natsu snapped, running at the fox again, “Why the hell are you attacking my family!”
The fox only dodged another lunge before grabbing hold of Natsu’s collar and ramming his face into the tree roughly, breaking Natsu’s nose in the process.
“WHY YOU” Natsu choked only to receive a knee to the gut that sent him sprawling several tree lengths away.
A crack echoed in his ears as he clambered to his feet again. A broken rib most likely. Pushing his muddied water soaked bangs out of his eyes he set his burning gaze up his opponent. There had to be a way to get Jonathan away from the fox, there had to.
Ears ringing Natsu ran at the figure once again retreating figure, running as fast as his body would let him. Chasing him through the pitch Black Forest, with only the scent of his child and the lightning to guide his way.
“Dammit, dammit, DAMMIT” The scent was fading with the rain, it was getting harder and harder to keep track which Sven t was the real scent and not fake trails left by the fox.
Kneeling once again to detangle the trail, a Natsu could have sworn he heard his name, standing up again to follow the real trail he heard his name again.
“Natsu!” A crimson haired woman by the name of Erza Scarlet burst from the trees.
“Erza? What are you doing here?!”
“It’s Lucy, she needs you.”
“I know I’m already after that fucking bastard who stole our son” Natsu snapped, attempting to turn back to the trail before Erza forcefully grabbed his shoulder.
“No, Natsu. When Wendy and the other Dragon Slayers heard the commotion they called for me and Gray to come investigate the matter.”
“We found Porlyusica half dead from some sort poisoning and Lucy on the floor as well. It seems she had tried to run after you but to try that much movement so soon after birth she collapsed from blood loss.”
“She’s dying Natsu. She needs you Natsu.”
Sobs began to erupt deep within the mans chest as he took in Erzas words, heart wrenching groans shook his shoulders as he was faced with the greatest dilemma of his life.
“But my baby, I can’t lose him Erza, what kind of Father am I if I can’t even find and protect him?”
“What kind of Father am I if I can’t protect his mother?.”
“What kind of Father am I?”
A slap broke the moment, a sharp sting bringing Natsu back to reality as his vision cleared and focused on his sister figure.
“If you think we won’t find him you are wrong Natsu, I will hunt whoever stole him from you down myself. I will break every bone in their body before I let them hurt a child of Fairy Tail. I promise you that.” Erza finished solemnly,Requipping into her Black Wing Armor, Erza took flight high up into the sky.
“I’m coming Lucy”

25 days of Reylo, Count Down to the Holidays 2! 
Decorating for Us.
AN: This should have been posted on December 2nd but I fell behind. Here is day two of 25 days of Reylo Countdown to the Holidays!
No Trigger Warnings.
This is Modern AU, Ben Solo and Rey. Established Relationship and Christmas fluff. The theme is opposites attract and domestic love in Christmas Decoration.
Happy Reading!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Rey woke up to the helpless squeaking of Ben's cat Darth Squeaks. Squeaks was a large fluffy black cat, who for being blind, knew exactly where Ben's nose was to pat him with his paws. The black haired giant of a man, mumbled to himself, batting the cat away. Rey giggled and shook his shoulders, “Someone is hungry, you feed the furbaby and I will get us breakfast.” she kissed his temple. He sighed but obeyed. He pulled their dark purple comforter and lavender cotton sheets off and swung his legs over the bed and into his black slippers. Squeaks chirped happily as he jumped down and trotted to his food bowl on the carpet by their closet. Rey gawked at him, he was only his his black boxers, his toned body on display for her. He grabbed the cat's food bowl and went to the kitchen.
Rey got out of bed, her pajama pants were snowmen and shirt had a penguin with a santa hat on. She dressed into black leggings that had snowmen and snowflakes on them and a thin grey sweater. She put her hair up in a sloppy bun and placed on her Christmas lights necklace. She slipped into her penguin in ugly sweater slippers and met Ben in the hallway. His eyes were still half down, he smiled at her and then made kissy noises so Squeaks would follow him back down the hall. Rey made them beacon and eggs with toast.
“I made the bed, we should change the sheets tomorrow.” Ben's voice was husky with sleep, he had his semi-rimless black glasses on, a plain navy tee and his paint stained work jeans. He saw his black mug with black coffee sitting next to a plate of scrambled eggs. He smiled and kissed her, taking a seat next to her at the island countertop in their Kitchen. “Thanks for breakfast.”
With over easy egg on her toast in her mouth she nodded and with her mouth half full said, “Welcome hun, tank yov for makin da bed.”
He bit back a laugh and opted for their topic of the day, “Well, Squeaks is fed, we're about to be fed, it's Saturday morning on December 2nd, why don't we decorate for Christmas?”
She licked her fingers but paused at the last part of his sentence. Her eyes went wide and brightened, she gasped, “Yes! Yes, November just slipped by so fast I didn't even think! I'll go get my stuff from the shed.” they finished their meal in comfortable silence. Ben taking their plates and places them and the frying pan into the dishwasher. Their cat jumped nimbly onto the island and laid onto his back to receive belly rubs from Rey and Ben.
They went to their shed in the backyard. It was mostly Ben things, childhood toys, photo albums, note books of old writings, his high school and college year books and other memorabilia, then there was the Halloween decorations and Chritmas. Ben had one large plastic container and Rey had a shoe box. It started hitting her as Ben closed and locked the shed and went back inside with her that she didn't have a lot. He placed his large box down, opened it and got out white icicle lights, a 4ft plastic Christmas Tree, a shoe box that had very childish handwriting that said, 'Ben Organa-Solo's Ordaments'. She stifled her laughter at the misspelling and the image of a small Ben with ears he didn't quite grow into yet scribbling this onto his box. There was a few more things, wrapping paper and bows as well as bag for gifts, a small musical merry-go-round and his Christmas Stocking that was hand knitted by his mother.  
He turned to her, gesturing for her to open up her box. It was mostly ornaments, pictures of her and Poe when they were teenagers, another of her Finn and Poe in University. She had a cloth calendar in the shape of a Christmas tree with red pockets and toys drawn on the pockets- there was even a little stuffed Santa that kept the date while peeking out to see if you're bad or good. Ben sat there at her attention, asking her about her things and letting her put them where she'd like.
The tree went first, on the coffee table in the living room, he put sliver tinsel around it to make it fuller. They carefully arranged their ornaments, heed taken to not over crowd. He let Rey twist the Merry-go-round music and put it on the island of the kitchen as a center piece. It played jingle bells a little faster than she thought it would. Outside with ladders and laughs they hung the icicle lights. In the windows they used command hooks to get blue lights in the large living room window that faced the street.
Ben, content with the minimal décor, poured water into her red kettle and placed it on the stove top. He busied himself with getting the coco mixes and marshmallows. Rey tried to keep smiling, there was nothing that separated the L-Shape of the dinning room, kitchen and living room, she stood at the glass dinning room table and stared around. It didn't look right. When she lived with her adoptive brother, Poe, the Dameron's house was full to the brim with decorations. The tree was huge and real, there was a tree skirt, signs that said things like 'This House Believes' on every surface of wall space, over mitts and wash cloths all Christmas themed.
He noticed. The kettle screamed, he turned the heat off, poured their coco and placed Marshmallows in hers and two in his. He squirted caramel twice in his and she absentmindedly asked him to put whip cream as well as caramel sauce on top. She took it from him and peeled her eyes away to narrow in on the only Christmas item in the kitchen. Ben cleared his throat to get her attention. “What's the matter, Sweetheart?”
“This doesn't seem very Christmasy- it's our place but with a tree, some lights and three trinkets.” she mumbled.
He pried, “What makes you say that?”
“The Damerons had so much, Poe and I felt like it changed to some sort of winter wonderland over night.”
Ben paused, he thought of his words carefully, “As you know, I'm a minimalist, and as you know I usually only go all out for Halloween-” he glanced her way to see her attentively listening, “Christmas can leave a bad taste in my mouth, it wasn't always happy for me- Mom tried her best, over doing it in some ways. Mostly to make the both of us feel better when Han ditched us. In fact the Christmas when I was fifteen, I spent it holding my mother as she sobbed. My mother wanted marriage counseling, my father told her he'd sign the divorce papers, he wasn't good enough for her.” the bad taste was in his mouth then, “He was right, he's not good enough for my mother, but I wish he would have listened to her- because as much as it pains me to say it they work in their own sort of strange way and he made her happy at some point.”
“I'm sorry Ben.”
He scratched the back of his head and rubbed his neck, “Sorry, that was much to heavy for this morning and I lost track of my point, my point is- we're not my parents and do you want to go Christmas shopping?”
Her eyes light up brighter than the light they hung. “Yes!”
“Let's go to Target then.” he grabbed their mugs and deposited them into the dishwasher.
“Won't that get expensive.” He glanced at her, “I am the author of four New York Time best selling novels and working on a just finished one of a three part series that Armitage says is going to be another, and my mother is a Senator, I think I can handle a trip to Target.” he bragged. “Besides, with all the work you're putting me to, you could buy us dinner.”
“Hawiian BBQ?”
“You know me so well.”
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Chicken, pulled pork, and beef with white rice and veggies. The smell was savory, making both their mouths water. They split the food, Rey guzzling her orange soda and Ben with his Dr Pepper. There was a small army of target bags at their feet and the afternoon seemed to have gone away, the sun would set soon. Once bellies were full, Rey sprung into action. She was replaced the over mitts with red ones that had cute snowmen, a kitchen towel to match. In the bathroom, which normal held a grey and purple theme was slowly transformed into a pink, rose gold, Christmas corner, a gold glittering Reindeer on the counter with the sink, rose gold Christmas Trees and cream colored towels. The dinning room received a tiny black tree decorated with old school game console controllers. Signs with cute sayings and sweet pictures were put up with command hooks. Another tiny green Christmas Tree was put in the living room with the HO HO HO red pillows on their chocolate brown couch. Fleece throws over the two lazy boys, one being beige in color with black cats in scarves playing with colorful yarn balls the other one black with little dogs in hat playing with balls. Gold, red, and sliver tinsel everywhere. And last a velvet rich red tree skirt. Squeaks sniffed the tree skirt and then jumped onto the coffee table and snuggled under the tree for a nap. Ben took a picture on his phone, “Squeaks seal of approval.”
She smiled down at the feline, she turned to Ben, “This could just be my Christmas gift this year, you spent a lot on me.”
“I spent a lot on us, seeing your excitement is enough.” he blew her off.
She grabbed his hand, “No, really, thank you. Don't get me anything else for Christmas.”
He glanced at her and kissed the back of her hand, “I am driving for us now, not me, besides, you really made this place feel like a Hallmark movie.”
“You hate Hallmark movies.”
“I'd watch this one.” he said with a wink.
She smirked and then glanced at the tree. She played with one of his Ornaments, she giggled and thought to herself 'ordaments'. She then realized she didn't really appreciate the decorating of the tree. A knot twisted and sunk in her stomach. She had been so consumed with how much decorating was that she forgot just to slow down and enjoy it with him. She started taking them down. He seemed disgruntled when he asked, “What are you doing, Rey?”
“I want a redo, can I have that?” she snapped- she winced then, she hadn't meant to snap. “Sorry, I got embarrassed. I spent so much time thinking about Christmas with The Damerons that I forgot this is our Christmas.”
“Hmm...” he eyed her before he nodded with a smile.
She laid them out into a pile of his and hers. He picked one up, it was of a crown. “What's with the crown?” Rey asked.
“My maternal grandfather called her his princess, so when I was born she told me I was a prince.”
she snorted, “Started your ego young I see.”
He chuckled, “Your turn.”
She picked up a Saguaro that had a Santa hat on it, “This is from when I was 13, they adopted me around Christmas time and did this to remember where I came from. Arizona was a rough place but I came to live here in Washington it really was greener on the other side, but I was to remember where I came from.” she put it just above his crown on the tree. “You next, but only the ones that mean something.”
He picked up a one of a Sword and Shield, “Han gave this to me before the real problems began between him and my Mother, he told me that chivalry didn't die with me.”
She grabbed an airplane, “Poe gave this to me after he came back from his first deployment.”
He picked up the last unique ornament on his end, the others simply being glass orbs of red, gold and clear with glittering white. It was of a Quill, “Mom gave this to me when I published my first book.”
She grabbed her last unique ornament that wasn't red and green plastic orbs, it was a gold glittering key, “Dad gave this to me when I graduating University, he said this was the key to the world of possibilities I opened myself up for. “ She placed it next to his quill. They hugged before finishing the redecorating.
It was going on seven at night, Squeaks stretched on the tree skirt and began to beg. Jumping gracefully from the coffee table and onto the couch with them. Bumping their hands with his cold little wet nose and demanding their pets. “Someone is hungry.” Ben said, picking up the fluff ball and cooing to him. Rey left to feed him, mixing in his beef wet food with his dry food. Squeak wiggled desperately out of Ben's arms when he heard his meal being prepared. He trotted down the hall after Rey, leaving Ben alone with his thoughts.
He spotted Rey coming back down the hall. She stretched her arms up and asked him if he wanted some coco. He agreed and watched her. He thought to himself, this was going to be the Best Christmas.
