A Very Merry Christmas Indeed

Relationship(s): Wattson/Original Female Character

Words: 1,966

Warnings: None

Summary: She and Natalie both like each other. Like a lot. Yet neither one of them seems to notice it. The rest of the gang decides to do something about it.

She wasn't usually the type of person who had a large friend group. She liked to keep to herself and only ever had a couple close friends in her circle. So it was a massive lifestyle shock when the other Legends welcomed her with open arms when she joined the Apex Games. It was great, for the most part. After adapting to the new social lifestyle, it was wonderful. Everyone was nice, there wasn't a dull moment when they were all together, and it was easy to flow into conversation. Plus it was also great having the ability to just go next door if you got the sudden urge to hang out with someone.

"So, what are you getting Nat for Christmas this year?" Makoa wiggled his eyebrows at her. Her face heated up as she tried to roll her eyes in feigned casualness.

"Yeeeah!" drawled Elliott. "What are you gonna get Nat?" he teased.

And then there were downsides to constantly being surrounded by friends. Once they caught on to something, it spread like wildfire to everyone else until you were the center of the jokes and teasing. Nothing was ever secret, nothing was ever personal, and you were always the butt of the conversation.

"It's a surprise." she merely replied.

Natalie Paquette was very easily the best person in the friend group to hang around with; she was incredibly caring, a great listener, and can cheer you up with the snap of her fingers. Not to mention she was so god damn adorable that it hurt. She wasn't quite sure when she started crushing on the blonde scientist, but by the time she realized she was, everyone else did too. Everyone else except for Natalie. And then the teasing started and it hadn't stopped.

"Are you gonna dress up for her?" Anita questioned with a grin on her face, making her own face heat up even more.

"No!" she huffed back.

"Come on, ya gotta get her something special. Tell her how much you like her! No better time than Christmas." Ajay suggested.

"Nat is a friend! That's it!"

"She's more than a friend to ya. Ya like her. We all know ya like her. So just do somethin about it already."

"I'm not gonna sabotage a friendship just to entertain you guys." she rolled her eyes once again.

"You're not sabotaging anything. She like you." Makoa said.

"Yeah!" agreed Elliott. "I mean, you two are so blind. I don't know how you haven't realized you like each other."

"Maybe because we're just friends, and you're seeing things that aren't there."

"What if we helped you!" Elliott cheerfully exclaimed. Immediately, her eyes went wide and she jumped out of her seat at him.

"No! Don't you dare!" she threatened. "Elliott Rodger Witt, if you do anything I will shave your head!"

"Okay okay!" he held his hands up in surrender. "Calm down, I'm not gonna do anything."

"Good." she sighed. "I appreciate your concern, guys, but please just stay out of it, okay?" she asked. Everyone mumbled their agreement to her in disappointed synchronization. "Good. Now, if you'll excuse me, I gotta go wrap up my present so I can give it to her later."

She promptly made her was out of the room, disappearing from sight. Once she was gone, the others all looked to each other with a knowing twinkle in their eyes.

"We're going to get them together, right?" Anita asked what everyone else was thinking.

"Oh, definitely." Ajay replied.

"I've got an idea!" said Elliott, and then huddled everyone together so he could share his plan.

The Christmas Party was starting soon. She had her Christmas Dinner contribution ready at her fingertips, and Natalie's present was all neatly wrapped up in snowman wrapping paper. It was an electromagnetic radiation thingamajig. Honestly she had no idea what it did, and it took her like 3 months of internet searching key terms to figure out what the hell Natalie even said she wanted. She thinks she got the right thing, and she hoped Nat would love it.

She headed down to the lounge. Most of the others were already there: some setting up decorations, others getting the table lined with their food dishes, and of course there was a Christmas tree surrounded by presents that Ajay was organizing. She set her food dish down on the table, allowing Elliott and Renee to take it and get it situation. Then she headed over to Ajay and set her present down.

"Is that for Nat?" the medic grinned.

"Yes. Be careful with it. Cost me a shit ton to have it shipped here."

"Relax relax." the red-head soothed. "I won't break it. Promise. What'dya get her?"

"Some sort of electrical testing kit. Or something. I don't know anything about science. For all I know, it could be a bomb." she said sheepishly.

"Well, whatever it is, I'm sure she'll love it. Here, I'll put it next to her present for ya." she grabbed the gift from her hands and placed it next to a small box in red wrapping paper and a gold bow on top. Her heart skipped a beat.

"She... she got me a gift?" she blushed.

"Well, yeah. Duh." Ajay chuckled.

"Is she here?" she asked, trying to casually look around the room. She didn't see the blonde when she walked in.

"She's in the bathroom. Ya should go wait for her. She put on her best dress for ya." Ajay winked playfully.

She tried to get her heart under control. Ajay's teasing wasn't helping, and now she got to thinking of what Nat could be wearing. Nat always looked cute not matter what, but dresses definitely flattered her the most. She has a beautiful baby blue number that hugged her curves nicely and brought out the color of her eyes. She really liked that dress, but could never think straight whenever she saw the blonde wearing it. Is that what she was wearing tonight?

No. When Natalie stepped out of the bathroom, she saw it wasn't the baby blue dress at all. Instead, it was a green puff-sleeved lace dress, accompanied by red jewelry and a poinsettia in her hair to get into the Christmas spirit. She had to swallow her hear that was creeping up in her throat.

"You look great, Nat!" she called out, approaching the woman.

Natalie smiled and gave her a tight hug. She smelled really good. Must be a new perfume or body lotion, because she was unable to recognize the scent.

"Merci! You do too! Oh I'm so excited! Tonight is going to be très magnifique!"

"I hope so. I've never been to a Christmas party."

"It will be!" she assured. "We'll eat dinner, drink drinks, open gifts. It will be fun!"

"Do you do this every year?"

"Oui. We're all family. Some of us only have this." Natalie responded, turning a bit solemn. She was thinking about her dad. She did that a lot.

She gently brought the blonde in for a hug, consoling her so she didn't cry. Nat held it together, reciprocating the hug with gratitude.

"No sad thoughts today! Today is for happiness only. Suis-moi," Nat grabbed her hand. "help me put up the Christmas ornaments!"

Nat pulled her along to the tree. She took the box of decorations from Bloodhound to pull out some ornaments- nothing special, just your typical glass balls on a hook, and a strand or two of tinsel. Nat, being the shorter one of the two of them, handed her the smaller ornaments to be hung on the top branches of the tree. She teased the blonde woman about her height, making Nat giggle and playfully fight back.

"Elliott calls me 'fun-sized'."

"I heard my name!" sang Elliott, walking over to them.

"We're just laughing about your fly being down." she said. Elliott's face tightened and he panicked. He hid himself against the wall as he looked to his pants zipper.

"Hey! My fly isn't down!"

"No, but you fell for it."

"Ha ha, very funny. Can you girls do me a quick favor?"

"Oui! What can we help with?"

"I left the champagne at my place. Can you go quickly grab it? Dinner's almost ready."

"Sure."

"Here's my key. It's in the kitchen." Elliott handed them his key card and sent them off.

She and Nat made their way to the elevators and headed up to his floor. Leave it to Elliott to forget his own contribution. But at least it was only drinks. If he had been in charge of an actual food dish, no doubt he wouldn't forgotten to cook it. As promised, a couple bottles of champagne were sitting on his island. Both women grabbed a bottle each and went back down to the lounge.

Suspiciously, the door was closed and locked. She rattled the door handle to no luck. Then she knocked on the door.

"Why would they lock us out?" Natalie questioned with a quirk in her eyebrow.

"No idea." She knocked again, this time the door opening easily. "Okay, why was the door locked?" she asked the group who were all huddled together and smiling at them.

"Oh, would you look at that. What is that on the ceiling?" Elliott theatrically asked, pointing above the women's heads. Both she and Nat looked up to see a mistletoe hanging above them.

"Guys!" she gritted through her teeth, realizing she had been set up.

"Now what could that possibly be doing there?" Anita followed Elliott's lead.

"I can't believe you guys! After you promised!" she cried out.

"Do they want us to kiss?" Natalie innocently asked, looking up at her and tilting her head.

"They set us up, Nat." she replied, trying desperately to hide the blush that was tinting her cheeks. "They're just playing a joke-"

She was cut off by the blonde throwing her arms around her shoulders and pressing her lips against hers in a deep kiss. Her eyes went wide, caught completely off guard at what was happening. No way this was happening. Absolutely no way. Natalie didn't hesitate to push her tongue into her mouth. And her brain was going haywire. She could taste the flavored lip gloss Nat wore. And she finally pinpointed the scent of her perfume -berries. It was berries.

She finally kissed back. She allowed her own tongue to swipe against hers as they stood in the center of the doorway, embraced in each other. Her arms went to go wrap around Natalie's waist, holding her close as she savored the moment she's dreamed of since they first met. Her lips were soft, and her body was warm. The dress she wore was silky on her fingertips.

"Okay okay. I think that's enough." she heard Renee suddenly speak up.

"If they start having sex-"

"Okay! We're done!" she pulled away from Natalie to prevent Octavio from finishing his sentence.

"Dinner time!" said Anita.

Everyone gathered at the table. Elliott took the champagne from the women and began pouring and passing out drinks. A spot was saved for her and Natalie right next to each other. As the different dishes of food were being passed around the table, Natalie reached down to lace their fingers together.

She blushed even harder as she looked down to their hands hands interlocked, but she didn't pull away. She gave their hands a squeeze.

"Merry Christmas." Natalie leaned over and whispered.

"Merry Christmas."

Riddle, Leona, and Ruggie Fighting Over GN!Reader

You can’t deny you’re a wonderful and helpful person. Helping those in need and saving a few from Overblots I mean what else is there to do when you’re stuck in such an unknown world.

Get fought over, maybe?

Characters: Riddle Rosehearts, Leona Kingscholar, Ruggie Bucchi

Content Warning(s): Book 1 and Book 2 Spoilers

Tbh this didn’t exactly come out as i wanted to, but I do like it! So sorry if it isn’t what you expected haha ^^

“QUEEN OF HEARTS” RIDDLE ROSEHEARTS

you made him realize his mistakes and helped him become a more better Housewarden

He has such admiration for you he just can’t help but be so enamored

He wants to do everything go help you out and do your best

He’s been walking you to class, helping you w/ homework, inviting you to unbirthday parties! Really he’s doing a great job at being your friend

“Housewarden you’re really attached to them, huh? Almost sounds like you have a-“ *CACHUNK*

NO ACE HE DOES NOT HAVE A CRUSH WHAT ARE YOU TALKINH ABOUT-

He does.

He really, really does

He’s been in denial of it for quite awhile and so took him a bit to finally become accepting of it

Although by the time he finally came to terms with it…

Why are Ruggie and Leona around you more often?

Oh.

So it’s like that… huh?

Riddle prides himself in never having losing a battle, and that streak isn’t about to break now!

“SCAR, KING OF BEASTS”

Tbh he didn’t quite get a lot of character development out of his overblot BUT he does respect you now for fighting him so props to you!

I mean he has the power to turn things into sand! He nearly killed someone! And you were like “yep let’s fight him!” At his most strongest yet emotionally weakest??

Mad respect good job my g

He’s even found himself wanting to spend more time with you

Taking naps together, helping you with your studies,

… this ain’t normal respect isn’t it

Okay so yeah he has a crush on you, it takes awhile to figure that out

At first he was going to shove that down to the deepest part of himself like he usually does but then notices…

Does that Heartslabyul herbivore always walk you to class??

And Ruggie… he’s been serving you more than him hasn’t he…? Now that he thinks about it you kinda smell like him too…

Soooo yeeeah not on his watch!

If you haven’t noticed him doing stuff for you and getting more clingy, you’re about as dense as the earth

Whoops sorry riddle looks like Leona is walking you to class already sorry maybe next time (not)

Oh hey ruggie, look who’s here! Leona! And he already got you some lunch isn’t that so nice?

Oh hello herbivore, it’s such a nice day let’s take a nap… oh don’t worry about your next class he’ll vouch for you! (He keeps you there for the rest of the day)

He’s made two small enemies and some affection points from you

But I wonder… who will win this battle?

“HYENAS OF THE ELEPHANT GRAVEYARD”

a hyena never forgets a debt! And you literally saved him from being dried out like a prune.

He literally owes you his life idk what to say

Ohoho you thought Leona was clingy??? Try him

Thanks to the fact him and Leona are,,, not on best terms (cough bc of you cough) he’s following more of you than that lazy lion

Oh don’t worry about their friendship it’s fiine the most they said to each other is a few insults (and how they’ll win your heart faster than the other) but it’s fiine

Anyways you wanna see this shiny coin he found <3

He is there for you 24/7, physically and emotionally !

he’d beg the Headmage to change dorms if he didn’t value his reputation

He’s been doing great as your own little protector/friend

And honestly, between the three you hang out with him the most

I mean c’mon look at the cute smile! Who wouldn’t?

Not to mention his hair is much more softer than nappy hair Leona and Riddle’s normal textured hair!

C’mon just spend time with him a bit more, please~ he’ll make it worth your while~

“Ruggie please stop I know you’re teasing Leona and riddle I can see them plotting your murder with their eyes-“

He says he will but we all know he’s lying
