Dancing in the rain
Pairing: Baron Helmut Zemo × Gender Neutral! Reader
Warnings: once is kinda sexual tension, but besides that it's pure fluff
Summary: You wanted to go for a walk after a mission. And who would have known that some of your dreams might come true under the rain?
Author’s Note: I got the idea after watching Crimson Peak (dancing scene to be specific) and the fact that it was raining while I was watching a said movie. Originally I thought about Bucky for this one shot, then Loki and I noticed I have no fics for Zemo so I gotta fix that. Hope you're gonna enjoy this one shot!

"Are you sure you don't want me to call Oeznik to get us? It looks like it's going to rain." Zemo commented, watching you walk in front of him.
You turned to him, walking backwards, with a soft smile. "I am sure, Zemo. I haven't had a chance for a walk like this in a while, so let me take my time." He shook his head and chuckled at your eagerness. He found it quite cute. "You don't care if it's about to rain?" He raised his eyebrow at you, before looking at the sky.
"Nope. I'm gonna enjoy myself, no matter if it's gonna rain or not." You turned back to him, hearing a chuckle escaping him, before he was at your side, offering you his arm to hold if you wanted. Without a second thought you gladly took it, slowing down to enjoy yourself even more.
As much as Madripoor was dangerous, even more at night - somehow you found it beautiful. The alley you were walking down with Helmut, was quite quiet, it seemed like only you two were walking down it. The lamps lights shining on the street, being the only source of light on that very street, but you couldn't mind. You liked the calming atmosphere it had and you thought you could ask for more at that very moment.
It was before you felt a droplet on your face. And from one small droplet, it slowly started to rain. Your eyes went to Helmut, who was already looking at you. You didn't realize he was staring at you for a while now, so you quickly looked away, a little embarrassed, feeling your cheeks start to burn.
You thought he was going to make a comment regarding that, but instead you heard him say "I hope it's not going to rain too heavily. Otherwise our walk wouldn't be so pleasant." He took a quick glance at the sky again, letting droplets fall on his face as you got a look at him again. "I don't mind the rain, at least not now." The happiness in your tone, made him smile at you.
Again you two kept quiet, letting the rain get you wet. Zemo held you close to him, making sure you would get cold. Then he felt you shiver. "Are you cold? Should I call Oeznik to get us?" Worry in his tone, but you shook your head at him.
"No thank you." Zemo nodded at that, and before he had a change to ask another question, you continued. "The occasion is perfect, don't you think?"
"It depends. Perfect for what?" He raised his eyebrow at you again, a little confused.
"It's like in the movies, you know? If we were in the movie, that would probably be a dancing scene." You couldn't look at him, while you explained what was in your head. It felt a little embarrassing, as much as you thought the dancing in the rain scenario was cute and quite romantic, it seemed a little cliché. You honestly thought Zemo might make fun of you for bringing such an idea up.
Instead you felt him let go of you. You watched as he fixed his hair, took his gloves off and fixed his outfit. "Well then, if you like the idea of dancing in the rain so much, who am I to not let your dream come true?" Your face was burning at that moment and you were sure he could notice.
And you watched him as he bowed a little before you, his hand getting wet as he waited for you to take it. "May I have this dance?" You nodded, deeply flattered by the gesture.
So you took it, setting your other hand on Helmut's shoulder, as his hand went on your hip. "Is that okay if I lead?" He whispered in your ear, sending a shiver down your spine. You were too stunned to speak, so you let out a quiet sound, confirming that you were okay with his idea.
So it started. Zemo slowly led you through the dance, keeping his eyes on you as you rested your head against his chest, listening to his heartbeat, trying to calm down. You could tell that your heart was beating way faster than it should and you had no idea how to stop it. It was all because of the closeness you got with Zemo.
You had a crush on him for a while now. He is always so nice toward you, ever since you met. So nice, kind and so gentle towards you. Caring about you and you didn't think if you ever felt safer with someone. Or happier at that point.
And before you think about your crush more, you felt Zemo letting you go to twirl you. You got so caught off guard by it, you almost fell on him. "Are you alright?" He asked, caughting you in his arms.
"Yes, I just got a little lost in my thoughts, that's all." You explained nervously, standing straight and fixing your posture. You took a look at Zemo, he was looking at you with a soft smile on his face. You felt like your ability to speak was taken away from you. Suddenly you felt so shy, when he was looking at you like that.
"Can I kiss you?" Helmut asked, waiting patiently for your response and reaction. He watched as your eyes locked with his, as you were trying to analyze what was happening before you. It really was starting to become a dream come true.
"Yes please." You finally whisper, after what seemed to be hours for you. You felt his hand go to your face, before his lips pressed against yours. You wrapped your hand around his neck, being so eager so closeness. Being so eager for him.
Zemo's lips were soft and they felt so good against yours. You imagined how it would feel to kiss him, but you never expected to experience it. Nor did you expect him to be this good. And before you let yourself go completely, he let go of you.
His hair was messy, but happiness on his face was clearly visible. "I wanted to do that for a while now." He admitted, as his thumb, brushes against your red cheek. "I'm guessing that you feel the same way?"
"Yes, Helmut." You almost moaned his name out. And you couldn't help yourself from hugging him. He chuckled at your reaction. Pleased with how things went.
You quickly let go of him, shivering again. He noticed, and before you could get a chance to stop him, Zemo was taking coat off. "Helmut, yo-you don't have to!" You protested, you were cold, but you didn't want Zemo to get sick.
"Maybe, but I want to make sure you won't get sick. You're soaked up." He replied, as he put his coat on your arms. He brought you to the side, hiding both of you from the rain. "I enjoyed our walk, but let's get you somewhere warm now."
You signed happily. "But we will do something like this again, right?"
He smiled at you. "Of course."

💪🏻 (SUPER SOLDIER ME BABY)
Send "💪🏻" for a Super Soldier Zemo starter.
He'd been considered a monster many times in the past, but there was never a time he'd found it more satisfying than this time. Grimly, maybe, but he was satisfied enough. For every hour they'd had him, and everything they'd done - every unwanted touch, every probing needle, every comment - he'd killed a man.
It was their mistake, really. Maybe others had been more willing to simply accept things, or too uncertain to fight.
Zemo was not. Zemo was a soldier, and he was furious at the violations of his body. If it had just been the one thing, if they'd just fucked him, he might have been fine. But this...?
Not a chance.
It was an electrified catch-pole that had first caught him off-guard. The man attached to it was more of a smear on the wall than anything, now, but with three more ropes around his neck and several men holding him down, he felt more the part of a feral animal than anything, baring bloodied teeth at them as his body jerked under the layered electrical charges shooting through his body.
His hands were too bloodied to get a grasp on the floor. The pool of blood he'd made created enough of an issue - he'd never had to consider the fact that blood conducted electricity so well before, but fuck it was making things different. Black spots danced behind his eyes, and he couldn't move, but he refused to close his eyes and let the black take over.

You remember that era, where all the fics were the Avengers being best friends living in Avengers Tower.
Thor's obsessed with pop tarts and Hawkeyes in the vents for some reason.
Natasha steals everyone's clothes, Tony and Bruce are Science Bros TM doing all kinds of chaos in the labs.
Steve's sketchbook is beside him and Jarvis is helping him figure out his new phone.
I really want that era for the current MCU.
Just
Kamala and Darcy making lists of all the classics Carol needs to watch.
Yelena winning family game night. Demands Jimmy teachers her his card tricks.
Sam and Shang trying to out dance each other and pulling out the DDR machines.
Kate casually spoiling her friends.
While Bucky and Katy collect bets.
Monica and Wanda watching sitcoms together on rainy nights.
Zemo and Sharon showing up like they aren't both wanted criminals to watch horror movies.
