Maybe We Could Do It Again

Pairing: Jay Halstead x Reader

Word count: 4,632

Warnings: bickering and fluff.

Summary: Jay meets the Reader as they’re both babysitting Makayla for Adam and Kim and they end up tangled up on the ground and kissing.

Disclaimer: I don’t own any of the One Chicago shows, or its characters, also not associated with it in any way, or know anyone involved with it.

A/N: Okay, so this is one of the longest fics I’ve written, which might be a little too long but I hope you guys like it and feel free to send feedback! By the way, this is the first time I insert Burzek in one of my fics but I think I got their energy right ;)

(y/n) = (your name) (y/l/n) = (your last name) (y/n/n) = (your nickname)

“Oh my God, Adam! I can’t believe that even when you’re not supposed to do something you get it wrong!” Kim yelled at her boyfriend.

“What the hell-” He even tried to respond but got immediately interrupted for his bad language.

“Adam!” She hissed again, not believing how he could still curse so much now that the two of them had a child in the house.

“Sorry, sorry!” He said, nervously raising his hands, as Kim already peeked through the kitchen doors to see Jay and Makayla pretend like they hadn’t been listening to every word of their conversation in the living room. “It’s just… I remember you specifically telling me to find someone to babysit the kid, so I did it! How is it possible that I’m the one who-”

“Yes! I did ask you two to do that! On Monday! And do you remember what you told me?” He didn’t dare to say anything. “Oh, no? Because I do! I remember you saying, and I quote:” she said, even making finger quotes to emphasize the whole thing, “‘Where the hell am I supposed to find a babysitter for Makayla? None of my friends have any experience with kids!’” Kim shoved it in his face, making a very good point for herself. But, as usual, Adam decided to go against any sign of good judgment and continue to defend himself. He knew he could never let Kim in on it, but Jay himself was one of those who had already heard the officer saying how much he loved bickering with his girlfriend and getting her all fired up against him.

“No, uh! That won’t cut it! You told me, and I quote: ‘Then hire someone! I don’t know! But you’re the one who came up with the date night idea, so don’t come and throw something that should be your responsibility on my shoulders!’, so I knew that I needed to find someone! Kev and Vanessa are visiting his siblings this weekend, so I thought: why not Jay? He’s good with kids, and he offered to help us with Makayla!” Adam concluded, absolutely proud of himself while Kim just rolled her eyes.

“Oh. My. God!!! You do know he didn’t mean that literally, don’t you?” She was already fuming by that point.

“Err-” He had to admit that he’d never stopped to think about that possibility…

“No one means that literally!!” She shouted, this time, making even the neighbors hear their arguing. “No one means that literally, and, now, you’re just making us both look like the cops who can’t take care of their own kid in front of the entire unit.” She stated, in a lower, tone while pinching the bridge of her nose.

“But this is not the entire unit! This is Jay! Our friend Jay, who had offered!” Adam stood by that argument and Kim had already opened her mouth to shoot a remark back when Jay came into the kitchen.

“Makayla’s distracted with the tv.” He started with that so that they wouldn’t be worried. “Uh... Guys, Kim, you don’t have to worry about me telling anyone about this, okay? I won’t. Besides, I did mean what I said before. I’m here to help. Whatever you guys need. Plus, for someone who had plans of watching a game rerun alone at home on a Friday night, babysitting that cute little girl is almost like hitting a jackpot!” Jay assured, giving them a small smile and shiny eyes headed towards Makayla’s direction. Babysitting a kid, when he was probably never gonna have one of his own, was one of the things that he, personally, missed the most about when Will and Natalie were together. Back when Lindsay lived in Chicago, he used to be sure that, someday, he was gonna find someone. Settle down. Build a family. But, now… After everything that had happened, he couldn’t help but feel like his time to do all that had run out. So, instead of mooning over it, he could gladly babysit Makayla.

“Well, um, thank you, Jay,” Kim started, nervously tucking a string of hair behind her ear, “that’s really nice to hear. And we very much appreciate it. But-” She didn’t get a chance to finish as the doorbell rang and Adam rushed towards the apartment’s entrance to prevent his very excited little girl from opening the door by herself. When he got there, followed by the other two adults, Makayla was already standing on her tiptoes, hand-in-handle.

“Hey! Watcha doing, you little adventurous?!” Adam asked while picking her up from the floor and tickling her sides, which made her become a giggling mess. “You can’t just open the door like that, darlin’! You gotta check on the peephole first,” he said, as he lifted her up enough so that she could look through the hole, “like this. See someone?”

“Yes! It’s (y/n/n)!” She squealed out. “Can we open the door now? Please, Adam?” Makayla asked, shooting him pleading eyes, while her body buzzed with happiness.

“Ah, (y/n/n), right,” Adam said simply, opening the door and fearing that Kim would want to restart the whole discussion with him.

“Hey, princess!” And that simple greeting was all it took for Makayla to throw herself from Adam’s arms straight to yours. “Wow,” you laughed at her sudden movement, which had caused you to lose your balance a little, “you excited to see me?”

“Yes!! Did you bring the bakings???” She asked you eagerly, bakings being what she called your cooking utensils.

“No, not today!” Your answer made her face, almost immediately, turn into a sad frown. “But I brought this!” You told her while lifting up a box that read ‘karaoke set’, above a few drawings of a microphone and musical notes. Seeing that, Makayla’s saddened expression shifted in two seconds, eyes lighting up.

“Look, Kim!” The little girl shrieked, more than ready to have what she already knew was about to be the time of her life.

“Yeah, I see that! Seems like you girls are gonna have a blast…” Your friend weirdly trailed off, as her mind tried to find a quick solution to the mess her boyfriend had made.

“Uh…” Was all that a very handsome man you hadn’t met yet managed to let out.

“Jay, um, this is my best friend (y/n). (y/n/n), this is our friend from work Jay. I’m sorry about the mess, guys, it’s Adam’s fault.” Kim spoke again, bluntly accusing her boyfriend.

“My fault??? Are you kidding??? You told me to find someone to watch Makayla 'cause you didn’t want us to keep bothering (y/n)!”

“Guys! It’s no bother at all, really. Hanging out with this little princess is in my best interest, believe me!” You said, quickly defending your case.

“Well, thanks for saying that, (y/n/n). What happened here is that Adam told me he wouldn’t be able to get anyone,” Kim started while shooting daggers into her boyfriend with her bare eyes. “So, since I wasn’t about to just wait for a miracle, I called and asked you to do it. But someone didn’t think about telling me that he had already gotten Jay to come. And now you’re both here, ugh!” She finished, rather dramatically, while pointing a finger at Adam.

That was, seriously, the best couple you knew when it came to bickering.

“Okay, so, um, it’s not gonna be any trouble. I can leave since your colleague got here first and you don’t need to be stressed on your date night, friend.” You tried to bring things to a peaceful ending before Kim turned it into a murder scene.

“Oh, I do need to be stressed! I need to-” She started to debate but got cut off by Makayla’s cute pleading voice:

“But you can’t leave, (y/n/n)! We’re gonna play karaoke!” The little girl clearly had already gotten worked up by your idea for the night.

“Makayla, baby, please don’t be difficult. You hang out with (y/n/n) all the time, and uncle Jay is already here…” You watched as Adam tried to reason with his daughter while she held you really tight.

“No, uh…” Their friend started to say. Was it too weird for you to be thinking about how incredibly cute he looked when scratching the back of his neck like that? “Relax, man, I can go. I bet that you’re gonna have a lot more fun with her than with me, anyways, Mak.” He completed, talking to your little friend with a sweet smile, to which she reacted with a confused frown.

“But- but why does Jay have to leave? Can’t he play karaoke with us, (y/n/n)?” Makayla asked you poutingly.

“Now that’s something I’d like to see!” Adam started to mock but stopped when Kim punched him in the arm. “Ouch! That hurt, you know?”

“I know! That was exactly the result I was hoping for!” She squealed out sarcastically, “Makayla, honey, you can’t just ask both (y/n/n) and Jay to play karaoke, of all things, with you.” It was lovely to watch Kim interacting so patiently with her kid but the young girl still didn’t seem to understand.

“But why???”

“Well, they don’t know each other, Makayla.” Kim tried again but Mak still wasn’t ready to give it up.

“But they know me!”

“Good luck explaining now, ma.” As soon as the words came out of his mouth, all of you 𑁋 Adam himself included 𑁋 knew what was coming, fortunately, Kim just punched him in the arm again.

“You know, guys, you don’t need to fight over something like this, okay? Uh… Since he’s your coworker, I’m gonna assume that he’s one of the good guys, therefore I wouldn’t really have a problem with hanging out with him…” You said because you were never one to say no to little kids. “I mean if that’s okay with you, too, officer…”

“It’s detective, actually. But you can call me Jay, uh, (y/n), right?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“Well, I don’t have any problems with hanging out with you either,” Jay said and, Jesus, was that really his smile? “I mean, Mak should get all the babysitters she wants!” He told her with a wink. It was official. You were so done for the night.

“Ha!” Kim nervously let out a laugh, “let’s go easy there, cowboy! You can’t just come into my house offering the kid everything she wants.”

“Okay, okay,” the detective started to say with a gesture of surrender while the couple started to get out of the house to give you the space to properly go in. “Sorry ‘bout that, ma!” You could have sworn that you saw him tremble 𑁋 just a little 𑁋 under the deadly gaze your friend sent his way. Adam, who seemed to be off the hook for the first time that night, took the moment to laugh and hope that his girl would forget she had been so mad at him.

“C’mon, darling. Let’s get going before we decide it isn’t very safe to leave Mak with those two.”

"Yeah… I'm already deciding that but maybe they'll prove us wrong." Kim said, voice absolutely faithless. "You behave, Makayla!"

"It's more than obvious that she's going to be the best tonight. Get outta here already!" You heard Jay yelling a little in response to her, as you and Makayla started to get the karaoke set up.

But you, being the lucky person you were, obviously couldn't find your way around your friend's old stuff.

"Uh, you need any help there?"

“No! No, not all! Um, I got this!” You quickly responded because you could be pretty skeptical when it came to admitting your weaknesses and, from your point of view, not getting a simple karaoke set to work was a huge one.

“Alright, then…”

“Are you sure you don’t want Jay to help, (y/n/n)?” Mak asked, sounding way more reasonable than you, the actual adult there.

“Um, err, I guess maybe I could use some help… It’s just that this TV setup is quite different from mine…” You said, still unwilling to let how confused you were really show.

“Yeah, I can help!” you heard Jay as he left his spot in the corner of the room. “I was just ordering us pizza but I can totally help out 'cause Adam and I actually shopped for these TVs together, so I have the same one!” He said, this time, already gently getting the device from your hands before you could even react, which was probably him sensing that you wouldn’t give it up so easily, like he could see right through you.

“Okay, well, since you already ordered the pizza, I’ll go make us some juice.” As you said that you got both of your companions making weird faces at you, so you amended: “Or not, because you already ordered soda too… Just keep in mind that if Kim gets mad because of all the junk food that kid is eating, I’m telling on you, detective!” You said, making a point to stare right into his eyes 𑁋 God, they were so beautiful, was there nothing but beauty in this man’s body?

“Okay, so I think we’re all good here with the karaoke! Who wants to go first?” Hearing that you came of your very dangerous thoughts and Makayla jumped up and down, screaming:

“Me! Me! Me!”

“Alright, little lady, then come pick a song!” Jay told her and stood by to help her with her choice.

About three hours later all three of you had already sung your hearts out 𑁋 Jay having had gone for ABBA, which surprised you and Mak, to say the least 𑁋 eaten lots of pizza, drunk lots of soda and had begun watching a movie, cause you told Jay that that always did the trick when it came to Mak falling asleep. But, God, it was hard to pay attention to the movie you were supposed to be watching when sitting next to a guy like that. And he wasn’t just really handsome. He was sweet and kind and funny. Also, he was so good with Makayla. It was like everything you’d always imagined the perfect man being like was right there, reunited in the detective’s goof self. But you couldn't be thinking those thoughts about him. Not when he was so close. And definitely not when your best friend's daughter was lying on both of your laps.

So, in order to calm your thoughts for a minute, you gently put Makayla’s head on a cushion as you got up 𑁋 because she was already asleep 𑁋, and said I’m gonna get started on cleaning over there.” It was indeed necessary since Mak had dropped all of the content of a big ice cream container near the dining table, the ice cream being very sticky and sort of liquid 𑁋 which was obviously beyond your understanding but who were you to judge Kim and her preferences?

"Oh God, lemme help you!" You heard Jay saying, as he quickly made his way from the corridor over to where you were cleaning the floor, by the dining table.

"Ah, there's no need for it. I'm used to spending time with Mak, and, then, cleaning up before Kim sees it." You told him with a sly smile.

"Ha! Well, I don't doubt it! You're really good with her."

"And she's really good at making giant messes."

"Right." He said, chuckling lightly. "But, this time, I bet you felt like there were two kids, huh?"

"Your words, not mine, detective."

"Anyways, I'll help. Don't tell Kim and Adam, cause they might spread it across the district, but I'm actually pretty good at cleaning. Especially, when compared to someone who's doing such a lousy job." At that, you instantly snapped your head in his direction.

"What did you just say?" You asked, pretending to be mad while standing up and raising your sponge, as if it was a weapon you were threatening him with.

"Uh… Uh, d- did you know that pulling a weapon on a cop is a crime?" He asked, trying to play along, but stuttering a little.

"And what are you gonna do?" Now that Makayla was asleep… "Huh? Arrest me?" Jesus Christ, you definitely weren't thinking straight, you thought as you watched Jay drop his mop, also spilling all the soapy water on the floor. He even motioned to take care of it but stopped when he realized that you were, now, standing closer. Closer than it was safe for him to be near a woman like you. So he decided to take a step backward, not remembering the floor situation and slipping. As a reflex, you grabbed his shirt when you were obviously not gonna be able to prevent him from falling.

So, you ended up falling with him. On top of him. Oh God, was that living room always so hot? Your thoughts were cut off by Jay's laugh, it was an open-mouthed laugh, just like when you two were interacting with Makayla. He didn't seem to be the kind of guy who got to laugh too much, especially given his job. But it definitely suited his features. His smile, that bright, was so beautiful.

"So you're seriously not even gonna try and get up? Just gonna stay there staring?" Hearing that, you blushed instantly, because you hadn't even realized you were staring.

"Ah, uh… Right." Now, that was your turn to stutter, and Jay was loving every second of it. He thought you looked absolutely adorable like that. Even more so than you had looked all night.

But you weren't feeling adorable at all. You were embarrassed. By the situation at hand, sure, but, also, by your entire behavior that had, pretty much, gotten the two of you in that position. What was going through your head? The answer was simple: nothing. Or, better yet, Jay's gorgeous face, body, and behavior. Just, Jay being gorgeous all night. Now, what really made you wanna dig a hole and jump right into it was when you tried to get up but the floor was so slippery that you just fell back on him.

Needless to say, he was having a playfield. Laughing like there was no tomorrow. In fact, he had relaxed completely under you, laying his head on the soaked floor.

"You know what? This is pretty comfortable. I think I'll stay right here." It was official: you had no self-shame.

"Are you serious?" He asked, trying hard to hold back from laughing.

"Look, I don't know what else to do, okay? And my brain is clearly affected by your little charm, because I just keep mortifying myself over and over-"

"So you think I'm charming, huh?" Damn it. A thousand times damn it.

"Uh… That's not exactly what I-" You couldn't finish your sentence, as Jay started pulling you even closer to him. Kissing you. Oh boy, how he kissed you…

"Oh. My. God." Both you and Jay jumped away from each other, as much as you could, the second you heard Kim say that, her being followed suit by Adam:

"What the hell is that?!?" He half-asked, half-barked at the both of you, trying hard to not burst into laughter.

"Uh, it's, um, it's not what you're thinking, guys-"

"It's not what I'm thinking?!?" Yeah… It was safe to say that Kim was pissed. "Are you sure it isn't? Because the image actually seemed pretty self-explanatory to me!" As the both of you just kept working out a way to get up from the floor, she continued: "I come back home thinking that everything was gonna be perfect because my daughter had two adults babysitting her! People that I thought were quite responsible but, then, I come home to find those very adults making out on the floor in my living room! My very dirty living room! And, by the way, where the hell is Makayla?"

"She, um, she's in her bedroom. Asleep." Jay finally spoke. "And, about the mess… We were just, uh…"

"Yeah, man, we saw what you were just doing," Adam said, looking like he was having the time of his life.

"No! That's not what he was gonna say-"

"Ah, so the two of you got along so well that now you even know what he was going to say, (y/n)?" Kim said, while glaring at you.

"All I meant was that, well, the place got a little dirty…" Jay started to explain but not fast enough.

"A little???" Kim was really, really mad, you realized.

"But dinner was great!" At that, both you and Kim just stared at him incredulously while Adam started laughing on his way to the kitchen.

"That's what you were going to say???" You ask him, not believing you'd just tried to defend him for some joke. "Kim, I'm sorry things ended up this unfruitful…" You began to tell your best friend, to try and patch things up, when Adam chipped in from the other room.

"You know, darling, Jay wasn't wrong! This pizza is great!" He barked, mouth full. And that's what got Kim to go over the edge.

"Don't you realize what just happened here, Adam??? And, you two! I still haven't heard an explanation on what the hell I just saw!"

"I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry! We were cleaning up and then it just-"

"It just what, (y/n)??? It just happened? That what you were gonna say?"

"As a matter of fact, yes, it is! It just happened because you and your boyfriend made me babysit with this ridiculously hot guy and I'm human! Now, before you have another crisis, Makayla didn't see anything and I'm leaving because I just humiliated myself more than enough for a lifetime!" With that said, and your flight or flee instinct activated — cause you were never much of a fighter —, you did the smartest thing possible and stormed out of there, hoping to be able to get into some sort of protection program for embarrassment victims.

Meanwhile, Adam and Kim simply had to laugh, even more so when they noticed Jay's shocked twinkling expression.

"Jay! What is wrong with you?" Kim asked, taking him out of his daze.

"What?"

"Go after her! If I hadn't been so upset about the circumstances, I would've been the first one to say that what happened over there?" She asked, pointing to the floor. "What happened there was hot." The officer finished her trail of thought bluntly, as if it was the most obvious thing.

"But… What about your living room?" Jay asked, still unsure of what to do.

"Are you kidding me? Look, Halstead, if you promise not to break her heart… I won't hold it against you." Kim stated, making her stance on the whole matter very clear. She thought it was a good way to start apologizing to you after freaking out like that.

"Uh, uh, alright!" The detective rambled, looking like he had no idea of what to do next.

“Go!” With that last push, he left his friends’ house to go try and get the girl.

“You know, this is quite a mess but they do have the potential to be a great couple!” Adam happily pointed out, as he kept eating all he could find.

“Ha! If she’s as lucky as I am…” Kim ironically muttered, as she watched her boyfriend impolitely shoving food in his mouth.

“Then she’s a very lucky lady!” He confidently stated with a grin while all Kim could do was laugh at his messy childish ways.

Outside burzek's apartment — burzek being the ship name you used to tease Kim and Adam with —, you had been slowly walking towards the subway. You wanted to move faster but your mind was too full at the moment. And, sometimes, when you needed to get your head back on straight, you couldn't really do anything else, having a hard time concentrating on your flow of thoughts.

It was right when you were beginning to think you had stopped the spirals in your mind that you heard him: "(y/n)!" You recognized the detective's voice on the spot. How could you not, after how he had managed to disrupt your thoughts and actions all evening? But you weren't about to turn back around and have your very own movie ending with him. You just knew it wasn't gonna play out like that and decided to keep walking in order to preserve the little dignity you still had. "Oh, c'mon! Just give me a minute! Please!" That pleading made you turn around, to let him down more politely, which ended up with the two of you almost hitting each other. Once again, that same night, he was too close to you. The proximity with his body sending all sorts of heatwaves through yours. He seemed to be feeling it too, given the way he started to look at you, the damn smirk back on his lips.

"Nu-uh. You don't get to look at me like that. Not after what it did to me the first time."

"Huh. Care to elaborate on that? How exactly am I looking at you?" He asked, moving even closer to you altogether. "And, more importantly, what exactly did it do to you?"

"You don't need me to answer any of that." You pointed out, crossing your arms over your chest — clearly going into defensive mode.

"Maybe not," he started, tilting his head slightly — the damn smirks never leaving his face. "But. I'd like to hear it nevertheless."

"Well, you're not going to."

"Ah, okay." Wait, was he really giving up that easily? "Then maybe I can just try and see what it does to you one more time? For the sake of curiosity." All you could think to say was an enthusiastic 'Yes, please!' but, when he started leaning in to kiss you, you seemed to come back to your senses, pushing him away and taking some steps back of your own.

"Oh my God! Don't you get it? We can't be doing this right now. Not after the way I left things with Kim because of our previous, um, actions!" At that, Jay just gave you a confused look. "I stormed out of there but just because I was feeling too ashamed about it all and I honestly don’t think that I want any more embarrassment for a lifetime.

“Okay, okay. I get that but maybe it would feel less embarrassing for you if you knew that I was feeling all of that too: all of that buzzing energy and the goddamn butterflies and everything. You were doing exactly the same I did to you to me. And, as embarrassing as it was to be caught like that by Adam and Kim, I still can’t say I regret any of it. In fact, I was thinking that maybe we could do it again? You know, minus all the mess and the kid 𑁋 I mean, I adore Mak but that would be-”

You didn’t care to listen to the rest of all he had to say. Instead, you threw yourself into his arms, even making him lose his balance for a second, and started kissing him, except that this time it was a slow, hot, and thought-through kiss. And the second you did kiss him, you heard clapping and whistling from afar, as you turned to find Kim and Adam there, once again witnessing you and Jay kiss. And that had Jay whispering to you:

“Let’s get out of here?” To which you responded simply with a:

“Yes, please!”

- whenever shauna was the one giving out the cards for the chores that day she’d beg her to make sure she saved her the closest one to you

- however when you start spending a lot of your time with van, everything changes

- van is openly gay, just like you are

- is it offensive of her to assume you’re dating just because you’re both gay?

- you share a lust filled, rough kiss

- god you’ve wanted that for so long

van

- she’s not really a crazily jealous person

- she’s a hell of a lot more chilled out than the rest of the girls

- but when you start ditching sneaking out of the cabin with her to sit and read under the covers with misty? oh boy things change

- she’s never felt like this before, she could feel it in her chest how furious it made her to see you with someone else

- she would make sooo many sarcastic jokes about you both

- “they’re probably off snogging misty somewhere”

- you’d overhear one of her jokes to the girls and actually get pretty upset

- at some point later that night you’d drag her outside to explain the way her comments made you feel to her

- she feels terrible

- it was never her intention to upset you

- she admits her jealously got the better of her

- you have a very heartfelt conversation about the way you’ve both been feeling recently

- let’s just say you walk back into the cabin holding hands, everyone pitching in an “ooo la la” or a whislte

lottie

- we all know my girl got some problems

- lottie is very protective of you

- always wanting you by her side

- so when she starts to notice that instead of attaching to her side, you’re attaching to nats, she goes a little crazy

- she’d honestly say some bullshit about how the wilderness wants you to stay with her at all times

- “lottie, you can’t be serious right now”

- “y/n i can’t ignore my visions”

Fnaf Movie things that got me

(⚠️LARGE SPOILER WARNING⚠️)

- The whole deal with the family layout is confusing to me. Vanessa is an Afton (another Vanessa-Elizabeth parallel) and has no mentions of other siblings, but it seems Mike and Abby aren't related to her so they're not Aftons.

- Which is weird because their family structure parallels the Afton kids. Mike is Micheal, the eldest brother. Garret is C.C, the middle brother with the striped shirt. And Abby is Elizabeth, the youngest sister who's name is an anagram for Baby (and could pass as a nickname for Eliz(abe)th).

- Also the age gap? Abby is 10 and I think they confirmed Mike is 30, which is pretty large. And that would make Garrett (unconfirmed age but his actor is 6) 14 years older than her. It's just interesting that the Schmidts had another child so late.

- This is something that everyone has been mentioning, but Nebraska is 9 hours away from Minnesota (where the movie takes place.) Why would William drive all the way up there to kidnap a random kid and drive all the way back? Unless it's not a random kid to him. Because of how Garrett's death parallels Charlie in so many ways, I've heard people suggest that Mike's father is actually Henry, and this is how William gets back at him for something involving the company. Plus it would explain why he recognizes Mike's last name.

- not to mention the Ella doll (once again an Abby-Elizabeth parallel since Ella's is a predecessor to Circus Baby in the Charliebot stages) was a springlock suit Abby was gonna be stuffed in.

-Now that I think about it- holy shit. In the end credits scene Puppet's music box plays while the words "COME FIND ME" are spelled out. What if Garrett possesses the Puppet to play into his Charlie parallel? That would be such a cool twist omg.

This will be updated with my thoughts but this is what I got so far

The Hollow deleted memories au part 2:

Og post

Part 1

(Ill make a part 3 if ppl want it)

Guess this is the header or smth now:

More under cut

Kai wakes up in his bed with a gasp. He blinks, hastily sitting up. Before sighing with relief. It was just a dream, he wasn’t a murderer.

He humorlessly laughs to himself, before remembering that his parents were home. That he had probably fainted during the fight and was brought back to his room, just to have that terrifying dream. It was a surprise in itself that they would take the effort to bring him back to his bed.

He dresses before slinking downstairs. Immediately greeted with an enthusiastic morning. He blinks once again, this time in surprise, when his mother greets him with a huge grin, if not a bit artificial and plastic. Kai, too shocked at the greeting, doesn’t notice.

He carefully sits at the dining table, where his father resides, peacefully reading a newspaper. Kai sits up straight with his hands placed neatly in front of him, after a while he slouches, fidgeting with his hands and doing the things that usually rises a reaction out of either of his parents. Nothing happens. His mother approaches the table, uttering bland sentence starters as she places the breakfast on the table.

Kai begins to slowly chew before choking on his food when the realization hits. For the first time in forever his parents worry over him, asking if he’s alright.

‘Yeah- I uh. Um, wheres, wheres Davis.’

They respond, telling him he’s upstairs fixing the rooms. Kai rushes out of the dining room unprompted, skidding to a halt when he sees Davis fluffing the pillows in one of the many living rooms. Kai collides into Davis, hugging him tightly. Davis pats his head and asks if he’s alright in his usual monotone voiced manner.

‘Yeah, everything’s perfect.’

Kai meets up with his friends on the weekend. Kais nervous due to the fact that he’s scared that his friends aren’t conscious anymore. Now fully NPCs. His anxiety subsides when his friends reply correctly when he asks them if they know that the world is digital. Earning a few raised brows and frowns, all of them having agreed they wouldn’t bring up the fact that they weren’t real randomly and without reason.

After a few hours, his friends notice that Kai seems happier and more lively, and pointing out their observation to him. Kai pauses before remembering that he never explained to his friends of how his parents were before. He goes on to say that his parents were back in an excited manner. His friends replying in affirmation and congratulations.

Days pass as Kais parents explain that they aren’t leaving and instead staying. Kai wouldn’t have a problem with this if his parents being around isn’t slowly mentally exhausting him. He still remembers how they treated him, and it’s hard to break the habit of flinching whenever they make a sudden movement or when he says words that would accidentally trigger them. It put him on edge.

The small pieces of glitch that he notices in the corner of his vision doesn’t help either, hiding under objects and appearing in dark corners. It also rubs him the wrong way when his parents voices almost went dead or robotic at the end of their sentences. But he just blames it on the code getting used to the new additions that he added.

Eventually The Hollow kids decid to meet up again at the donut shop. Noticing the glitching thats been happening. They each share their own experiences, trying to piece together what the hell is happening. Kai doesn’t say anything, eyes refusing to meet anyone else’s and hands fidgeting nervously. His friends ask him whats wrong and he practically bursts, saying he doesn’t know anything or why anything was happening. Being a terrible liar, his friends give him strange looks. He excuses himself before rushing out of there.

The glitching gets worse. NPCs, animals, plants, glitch and contort. Kai stays holed up in his room, telling himself that everything’s fine, that everything’s perfect, that he didn’t fuck anything up. Even though deep down he knows he didn’t do the recoding right. That he didn’t take any precautions and the quick switch stressed the code too much and wore it thin. He Ignores his friends calls and messages of them trying to contact him. The Hollow kids attempt to contact Weirdy but can’t seem to reach him due to the excessive glitching.

Finally, Kai exits his room, trying his best to ignore the glitching and live his life normally. That is until he sees his parents. Horrified he stands stockstill, watching as his parents limbs contort into a nonhuman creature, glitching and fazing in through reality. Their heads snap towards him, eyes black and sunken. A distorted sound emits from their glitching mouths before they bound towards him.

Kai screams, running towards the front the door and slamming it open, skidding to a halt when he sees no ground. He looks up to see a blackish greenish abyss, his house and pieces of land floating around as the glitch eats away at it.

He glances over his shoulder back inside the house to see his family scrambling towards him like rabid glitching creatures, letting out ungodly robotic screeches. On instinct he jumps from his doorsteps, using his fire to maneuver himself midair and towards another piece of floating land. He crashes into it, scrambling onto his feet and looking back towards the mansion to see his parents also jump from the doorsteps before dissolving into pixels. With hazy eyes he spins half dazedly on his feet. Fully taking everything in.

This was all his fault.

He hears familiar voices and twists his head in the direction of the sound. He sees Vanessa flying, holding onto Reeve as she zips towards a huge chunk of land that seemed more solid than the others. His eyes flick a few ways over and watches Adam parkour onto multiple flying chunks, guiding Mira as well.

The adrenaline rushing through his veins scream at him to move and he activates his fire, also making his way to where his friends were grouping up on the stable digital road.

When they all make it there they check on each other to make sure no ones injured. Saying things like they’re so glad each of them are okay and such before asking what the hells going on.

They start throwing out questions and theories of what might’ve happened. Maybe the glitch from The Hollow transmitted to Hollow Life. Maybe this was inevitable and Hollow Life was always unstable. Maybe someone from the real world got ahold of the game. Kai stays silent, everyone words turning to static as his eyes dull out.

‘-Kai, Kai. Kai!’

He snaps from his daze to see his friends looking at him. His hands begin to shake.

‘Do you have any idea whats going on?’

The seemingly innocent question, only asked for his opinion on the matter has Kai hyperventilating.

‘I- I- didn’t mean for this to happen I swear! It wasnt, it wasnt supposed to go like this. I didn’t mean to i didntmeantoididntmeanto. Im sorry im sorry imsorry-‘

Tears begin to form and his whole body is shaking as he takes ragged breathes, chest heaving, eyes wild and flickering all over the place. His fingers that were digging into his palms go for his hair, clutching at strands.

His friends taken aback stare back at each other. Speechless. They try to gently ask what he’s talking about. Some more forceful and asking what he did. Kai takes hasty and paranoid steps back as they advance. They notice the glitch slowly eating away at the piece of land. Causing fear to make them grow angry and frantic as words are shot and screamed, not only at Kai but each other. Kai can only watch as he goes into a full blown panic attack, eyes fearfully trained to the floor.

His eyes snap back up when he hears screams of agony piercing his ears. He watches as the glitch reaches his friends and eat away at them, starting from their backs. He yells before rushing towards them, he reaches Adam and Mira first, hand stretched out in front of him, barely touching their chests before his friends turns into particles. Adams Hollow shirt and Miras Jacket fluttering to the ground, the only thing Kai was able to touch before they disappear.

He falls to his knees, hands fisting into the articles of clothing before he jerks to where Reeve and Vanessa stand. The glitch slowly descending from their heads and backs. He leaps back up, rushing towards them in pure desperation but unable to reverse a doomed situation. He collides into them, legs knocking into their bottom halves as their tops practically dissolve. He trips over Vanessas shoes and his knees land onto Reeves shorts.

Time stops.

He can’t breathe. He can’t see. He can’t think. His hands just blindly pad the digital ground, his eyes wide and staring straight forward, bundling all of his friends remains into his arms. His head slowly tilts down, and he sobs.

He keeps sobbing into the clothes as the world is destroyed around him.

Kai, being the last thing along with the headquarters when he recoded the world. He was more solid then the rest.

The headquarters.

He gasps in between his sobs, snapping his head up and frantically looking every which way, staring into the dark green void. His eyes finally catch sight, beyond the floating glitching trees. Stood the solid Hollow headquarters. He let out a wheeze, a breathless desperate wheeze before letting out a laugh. A full watery laugh.

He could fix this.

He could still fix this.

He stands on wobbly feet. His friends clothes still rolled up in his arms before he shifts it to only one arm. He braces his feet before speeding towards the edge. Leaping before using his free hand to maneuver himself in the air with his fire.

He clumsily reaches the headquarters, now the only lasting piece of Hollow Life left. He wastes now time, grabbing his bearings and runs inside. Mere instinct and memory rushing him towards the control panel room.

He stands before the panel and floating glitchy screen. Breathless, before he gets to work. Dropping the items on the ground, his hands reach towards the panel. He does the same thing he did before, erasing recent events. He resets to the world from before it was glitching and destroying itself.

His exhale comes out in a wheeze when he is finally sure that yes, he can bring everything back to the way it was. His expression turns serious when he sees his parents code. He doesn’t think twice before deleting them completely, confirming when a pop up box comes up asking if he’s sure. He hesitates before deleting the mansion as well.

He exits his personal life profile, before jumping in his skin, he rushed to The Hollow headquarters and deleted the building as well. There, now no one could mess anything up.

Now, he knew this process was delicate. He knew his friends would have their memories of what happened even if he did return the world to normal, Just like he had. He clicks onto them individually, erasing the memories of what had occurred. He stops, his hands hovering over the panel. He deletes the memories of how they got into this digital world in the first place.

They couldn’t know they were in a game at all.

He pauses. staring at the option of being able to delete a complete person from someones memories. He blinks a few times, his face streaked with tear stains but none falling any longer. His face hardens. Deleting himself from their memories. In an after thought he deletes himself from the NPCs memories as well, including Davis’s.

Suddenly an idea forms in his head, he scrambles to find him. To find Skeet, and there he is. Not even deleted, still whole as a piece of code, just not there. He grins for the first time since everything, the screen illuminating his face. He brings Skeet back, altering his memories as well.

He was done. Yes, there’d be a few holes in their memories but thats fine. His friends are never gonna know a Kai. His friends are never gonna have to bear the weight of Skeet dying. Of them dying. They weren’t even gonna know they were in a game. Nothing, could mess this up.

Other than him.

His hands fall to his sides. He would just somehow fuck it all up again wouldn’t he. Even if he tries to erase his own memories he would still find a way to fuck it up.

Just like he always does.

His fingers, almost as if they have a mind of their own pull up his profile and code. Just like his parents, on the side, theres the delete button.

The glitch inches closer, unbeknownst to Kai, eating away at the headquarters walls.

His hands shake, hovering over the delete button. He inhales deeply before exhaling.

This was for the best.

For everyone.

He wasn’t even real. He was agonizing over this shit for what.

That depressing thought releases a hollow chuckle from him.

He just hopes his friends are still sentient after all this. Still aware even if they aren’t aware, if that made sense.

He bends down before grabbing his friends clothes in his arm. Hugging them close to his chest. Imagining that he was telling them goodbye.

His hand reaches out and he presses the delete button before clicking on the ‘done’ button. He feels the world around him reform. The dark green particles reach him. Already having eaten the whole game. It inches towards him and the panel. The glitch climbs up him. Reaching his chest, he tilts his head up.

He felt empty. But, happy. He knew this was for the best. Even as he felt the glitch rip into his insides and a shot of pain ricocheted throughout his body. He closes his eyes, feeling at peace before the glitch consumes him whole.

Then, the world exploded into white.

In the white abyss, the headquarters flickered before disappearing. And then, everything reformed from the headquarters point. Trees exploded from the recreated ground. Birds and mammals reappeared as if they never left. People came back to life along with homes and families and friends.

Each and everyone of Kais friends (including Skeet) awake from their respected beds groggily.

Kai wakes up with a gasp. His chest heaves as his eyes immediately squint against the bright white walls and floors.

Kai sits up, pain shooting through his body before settling to a dull ache. He groans, pressing the palm of his hands to his eyelids.

He brought them back to his sides. He blinks, eyebrows furrowing as he steadily took in his predicament.

‘What-‘

He frantically pats himself down, as if checking to see if he was really there.

He shouldn’t be alive.

He got deleted.

He’s supposed to be dead.

Did he fail?…

Kais breathing picks up pace as he eyes the clothes scattered beside him. Adams shirt, Miras jacket, Reeves shorts, and Vanessas shoes. He tilts his head up to look in front of him. All he sees is a white abyss. Kai swallows the lump in his throat, trying his best to ground himself.

Then he sees something. He squints his eyes once more, peering into the distance. Far off, stands a building. He stands, holding the bundle of clothes before hesitantly taking a step forward. Then another. He starts walking towards the building.

He stops in front of the mansion and the headquarters, side by side. And the realization hits him.

He’s in the trash bin.
