solstice
vincent x david (redacted audio)
words
being moon bound during a summer solstice was never fun, but vincent was having an especially bad time. luckily for him, david was here to help.
vincent may be a tad out of character, so sorry in advance if he sounds a little weird!
requested by: @broke-art-girl

Tumblr media
solstices were never easy. especially summer solstices when you were moon bound. david and vincent knew this all too well. they had both gone through many solstices before they started dating, and this wasnt even their first together. that didnt change how much they sucked though.
vincent was having an especially bad time. if you asked him today, he would absolutely say this was the worst hes felt in his entire (undead) life. he was hot, he had a headache, his whole body was achy, and worst of all he was so hungry that he thought he was going to die of starvation at any moment.
perhaps he was being a tad dramatic, but he certainly didnt feel good.
he thought he was alone in his home. he was simply going to suffer in his nice plush bed, withering away to nothing and perhaps quietly crying to himself until sleep overtook him. that wasnt the case however. in his moment of pain and discomfort vincent must have missed the door to his home opening and a familiar wolf entering.
vincents lack of awareness bit him in the back when his bedroom door opened, making the vampire jolt upright with all of the strength he could muster. even in his current state there is no way he was going to go down without a fight. luckily for him there was nothing to worry about and the “intruder” was a much more welcome guest than he initially thought.
“david?” vincent said quietly.
“jumpy much?”
david gave a strained smile, clearly dealing with his own issues this solstice. the smile was appreciated though and vincent slowly started to calm down from his previous state of panic.
“what are you doing here?” vincent asked.
david shrugged, kicking off his shoes and coming to sit next to vincent.
“thought we could both use the company on a day like this.”
at the response, vincent flopped back against his bed, looking anywhere but david. his previous discomfort was coming back quickly, but now with david here there was an added layer. dont get me wrong, vincent was happy for the company, misery loves company and all that. but his hunger was starting to overtake him, and even though his senes were not the best on the solstice david was starting to smell like quite the treat.
out of the corner of his eye, vincent saw david raise an eyebrow at him. vincent huffed and raised his own eyebrow at david.
“what?”
“are you alright?” david asked as gently as he could muster.
vincent made a displeased noise. “as alright as i can be given the circumstances.”
“well obviously. but it seems like its more than that.”
vincent sighed. david was bound to know one way or the other. he might as well come clean now. his very tasty partner could possibly help even. one way or the other.
“the solstice is kicking my ass… and… i havent eaten in a while so-“
vincents words were cut off with a displeased noise from david.
“take a bite.”
he spoke quickly, adjusting his shirt so vincent could get a better angle of his neck.
“you dont have to do this, i know the solstice has gotta be kicking your ass too.”
“it wasnt a request.”
with a very brief pause for vincent to contemplate this decision, he say up and buried his face into the werewolf’s neck.
“thank you david.”
with his quiet mumble vincent sunk his fangs into the other mans neck. the taste of his blood was enough to make the vampire go mad and for once on this horrible day a feeling of comfort washed over him.
davids hands came to rest on vincents back comfortingly. weather it was for his or vincents comfort was unknown but they stayed like that, holding each other for much longer than was necessary for vincent to feed.
more than just getting a drink from his lover, the comfort of being in each others arms was enough to make this day just a bit better.

happy
damon x vexx x gn reader (andromeda six)
979 words
for the little amount of downtime you get with everything going on right now, you and your new found lovers found your own ways to make your time spent together peaceful and relaxing.
no one knows this fandom, but idc. this one goes out to @lovelyossein !!
lowercase intended. not proofread.
Tumblr media
tilaarin was a peaceful place. even if you hadn't been here for long, and even if you wouldn’t get the luxury to stay here much longer, the peace it brought you for now was refreshing. although your company may be helping your sense of peace.
it was odd. the two men you found yourself lying besides, odd how the universe brought them to you, odd how you ended up together, and especially odd how they were both laying here peacefully. neither of the men were asleep, you could tell that much, but their eyes were closed and both of them had a content smile on their lips, no matter how small it may appear.
damon lay to your right. he was on his side facing you and vexx. his arm draped lazily over your stomach, his fingers occasionally tracing circles into your revealed skin.
vexx lay to your left. he was also on his side facing the two of you and if it was anyone else, you’d feel trapped due to them both closing you in like this. vexx’s arm wasn’t draped across you like damons, but he did rest his hand on your thigh, giving it a squeeze when he must have sensed you looking at him.
looking away from both your companions briefly, you gazed to the ceiling and let out a content sigh.
“something the matter, your highness?”
damons words made you roll your eyes and turn to him raising an eyebrow. he wasn't being genuine, it was obvious in his voice even if you didn't know him so well. he lived to tease you, and it seemed even in your most peaceful moments together he couldn't help but tease you.
you took a moment to contemplate your response. you could throw just as much snark back at him but in that moment, you didn’t want to. you decided to be honest, even if honestly wasn’t truly what he was looking for.
“no, nothing's wrong,” you turned your head to look at him, seeing that his eyes were now open and already looking at you.
“i’m just happy.”
damon huffed and damon smiled at you softly. one of those soft and content smiles that he only seemed to do at you. it was a look you could find yourself getting used to, if he was willing to let you get used to it.
“and would that be because of us, your highness?”
this time vexx spoke. his voice coming out closer to your ear than you expected. he clearly took you being distracted by damon as a way to move unnoticed. his face was now nuzzled into the side of your head and his hand was slowly creeping closer to where damons were on your waist.
you pulled your bottom lip between your teeth, trying to stop yourself from grinning as wide as you wanted to. the look on damons face told you that he could tell which means vexx could also tell, even if he couldn’t see your face.
“yes. all thanks to you two.”
vexx placed a soft kiss to the side of your head, one you could feel the smile through. before you could turn to look at him damon spoke.
“i don’t think he deserves any of the credit. it's really me that makes you happy, isn’t it?”
vexx’s grip on you tightened at damons words and you were surprised he didn’t throw damons hand off of you in defense.
“you’re saying i don’t make you happy too, stab happy?” vexx said smugly.
damon raised his eyebrow at the red head, even if vexx wasn’t looking at him. “of course not, what would make you think i’m happy at all?”
vexx finally looked up at damon, giving you a chance to turn slightly and see his face. he had a wicked grin; one you knew meant he was up to something. glancing quickly between the two men, you decided to let them deal with each other and not get involved in whatever this was.
“really? because before our favorite royal woke up, you were telling me a different story.” vexx said grinning at damon.
turning your gaze to damon, you only saw that his smile had grown wider.
“words are cheap. besides, where is your proof, carrot top?”
“the look you’re giving me is more than enough proof. wouldn’t you say so?”
vexx directed his question at you, making you get a good look at damon. he raised his eyebrow at you, keeping a straight face. but even though you weren’t as good at reading people as he or alisa was, you could see this look in his eyes. it told you everything you needed to know.
“vexx has a point. that look gives it all away.” you said nodding your head mater-of-factly.
damons face softened and his mouth morphed back into that relaxed smile again. he couldn’t deny it anymore, he was happy.
before anyone could celebrate the victory, damon leaned in and gave you a tender kiss. his lips were rough, but that was something you had already grown used to. it was a welcome feeling now. he held your face so gently, almost as if he couldn’t believe you were real. the kiss lasted only a few moments, but it was well worth it.
then, after breaking apart from you he turned to vexx. he reached over at patted vexx’s cheek. it wasn’t nearly as gentle as when he held your face, but there was fondness there, nonetheless.
it was nice being surrounded by the two you loved the most. as you settled back into quiet damon and vexx wrapped their arms around you once more, this time holding onto each other in the process.
yeah, you were happy, and you had hope that you all would share many more moments like this in the future.

kyoya confiding in you.
he never thought he could really and truly trust someone but then you came around and wormed your way into his heart. he trusts you more than anyone else. you didnt realize how much kyoya trusted you until the first time he confided in you.
maybe it wasn’t actually something that big. but one time, when it was just you and kyoya sitting alone he told you something personal. something that was bothering him. something you knew he wouldn’t tell anyone else willingly. thats when you realized just how much he trusted you.
kyoya probably didnt even realize it fully yet, he didnt know how much he actually cared for you. it was just something he wanted to say and he felt comfortable enough around you to say it. if you made a big deal about it he’d deny that it meant anything, but thats the only way hed even realize how he feels about you. if you didn’t mention it though it would take much much longer for him to come to terms with his feelings.
he trusted you enough to confide in you though. even if he didn’t realize it, you did and that was something special.

You and Simon are that couple who have a lot of inside jokes. You'll text him, "Send dick," and it's a picture of someone who gets on his nerves (it varies and Graves and Johnny have been featured a couple times). He'll text you, "Send tits," and it's different pictures of the bird.
It becomes your way of checking up on each other when he's deployed.

intimate moments with spencer
spencer loves soft intimacy with you. simple things like holding hands or you nuzzling your face against his makes him weak. the gentleness that you show him makes him feel so special. even just looking at him with your softest gaze makes it impossible for him to keep a smile off of his face.
he treasures every moment with you dont get me wrong, but spencer holds the intimate moments so near to his heart. theres something special about all the softness you share when there is so much chaos going on.

making nakedtoaster and you a matching bracelet
toaster isnt the most jewelry wearing person. however, that doesnt mean they wouldnt appreciate your thoughtfulness, and because its coming from you he would absolutely wear it. its odd that toaster isnt much of a jewelry person, it certainly looks good on them. you clearly know that, but this little bracelet was more about the feelings behind it than adding to his wardrobe.
a beautiful, hand made threaded bracelet looks perfect adorning toasters wrist, but the thing thats most important to them is that now whenever youre apart, you both have something to remind yourselves of each other. they love having a reminder of you when youre apart. and they also admire your craftsmanship, the bracelet is beautifully crafted.

thinking about protective derek
derek who cant stand the thought of you getting hurt. every time youre in a situation that’s dangerous or even a situation that just makes you uncomfortable he’ll get extremely worried and protective of you. he gets so worked up that he regularly looses his composure. its odd for derek. he is known for being a little rough when needed sure, but he does not loose his composure. but when youre in danger he will do anything he has to to protect you.
he’ll yell, and punch, and generally cause a bunch of problems if it means you are out of harms way. its not common, but on more than one occasion derek has gotten into a physical altercation with someone over you. and those were on the more mild side of things.
dont get me started on if you actually got hurt. derek would worry himself into an early grave if something actually happened to you. he’d blame himself somehow, and that would make him so frustrated and angry that it would just boil over onto everyone around you. even if it wasnt them that hurt you. and if he got his hands on the person that hurt you derek would definitely not hold back.
derek is the protective type, no matter how small or how big derek will absolutely make sure nothing can get to you.

letting spencer infodump.
its hard to understand spencer sometimes, not just because he talks too fast when he’s excited but that certainly doesnt help. what makes it so difficult is most of the time you dont even know the first thing about what hes talking about. spencer is good at explaining things, yes, but he also jumps around sometimes. that makes it hard to follow when you dont have as much knowledge on the subject as him.
that has never stopped you from listening though and spencer will always be greatful for that. you give him your full attention when he rambles and infodumps. its such focused attention that spencer sometimes gets caught of guard with how much you’re actually paying attention to him.
he loves having your attention though even when it does flustered him. and who knows maybe youll learn something new in the process.

thinking about kissing asmodeus out of the blue.
could be on his forehead, his cheek, or even his lips, but wherever it is you managed to catch him of guard. hes taken aback at first, started by your affection. that is until he can process what youve done of course.
asmo’s face will immediately contort into something so sly, a face im sure youre familiar with. he’ll smile big, and immediately jump into a speech about how you were obviously so desperate to kiss him that you just couldn’t help yourself. obviously you just couldn’t wait another second.
and to an extent, asmo is correct. you needed to kiss him just that moment. but the reason is much more personal than his teasing would let on.

Spencer Reid wakes you up with kisses as often as he can.
His slightly chapped, perfectly pink lips drag across the heated skin of your neck. The kisses are sickeningly sweet and so impressively gentle that goosebumps spread themselves along your arms and butterflies erupt in your stomach making your eyes flutter softly as you start to wake yourself.
You grumble sleepily when his hands move to wrap around your waist tighter. Your hands grab and lace your fingers with his.
When your eyes finally will themselves open, they crack only slightly, your eyesight blurs, and you're pretty sure your eyes are crusted in the corners. Spencer's cheek smooshes roughly against yours and you groan in pretend annoyance. He smooshes harder in response.
"Spencer..." You groan again.
He presses a wet kiss to your cheek and you try to fight against the smile that began growing on your face.
"I just love you," Spencer whispers to you, you feel his breath against the shell of your ear.
"What time is it?" You ignore him on purpose.
He squeezes the skin of your waist, "Say it back... please."
You want to hold out just to tease him but the way his voice sounds when he pleads with you makes you give in instantly.
"I love you, Spence"
You feel a grin grow against your cheek, he snuggles closer to you almost like no matter what he can't be close enough like he needs to be attached to you completely, apart of you.
"Love you," He sighs, gives you one more sloppy kiss, and let's you fall back asleep once and for all.

they refuse to go to bed unless they hear from you and get a goodnight and an i love you. weather that be in person or over the phone or even through messages, they will not go to bed unless they hear from you. which has led to many situations where they will bother you and even wake you up because they need to hear you say i love you before going to bed.

flustering a tsundere werewolf boy (reimagined)
self ship fic
david shaw x felix last
two werewolfs run into each other not once, not twice, but three times. david thinks hes being followed, but felix is just happy to see another werewolf in their new town.
this… this got a little long… (3.8 k words)
most of davids dialogue as well as the title for this fic is from the official video, so credit to redacted audio on youtube for that! i just wanted to rewrite the first video to be for my self ship :3
Tumblr media
“why are you following me?” the mans voice was harsh and had quite a bit of edge to it.
i knew the man. well, i knew of the man. he was tall and broad and he had an aura of seriousness to him. he seemed more agitated this time however. it seemed to only be building with each time we ran into each other. if it had been our first encounter like this it would be an odd question to ask. but we had both been at the same place at the same time multiple times now, and it was getting hard to believe this was coincidence.
i could tell he was empowered too, and that he was also a werewolf. in theory that should make him extremely dangerous, but despite the mans tone and the way he was acting, i knew he didnt want to cause any harm to me. the situation was just a curious one, and he wanted answers.
“why would i be following you?” i asked, tilting my head.
“because you’re everywhere i am dumbass.”
i shrugged at his statement. it was true, but i was just as lost in the situation as he was.
“did you think i wouldn’t notice? i have eyes.” he continued.
“you dont have to me so hostile. besides why would i be following you?”
“im sure there are plenty of reasons you could be following me.”
he glared at me when he said that which only made me smile slyly. not the best response to this situation but i couldnt help myself.
“and if i knew why you might be following me then i wouldnt have asked. what. do. you. want.” he ‘asked’.
“look im just as lost as you are. daliah may be a pretty big town but im sure its not unheard of for people to run into each other.” i said giving him a shrug.
“oh so we just happen to be ending up in the same places? convenient.” he said while crossing his arms.
i laughed at his statement, which made him shoot me an even icier glare. through my giggling i managed to speak.
“it IS convenient.”
“i meant the explanation, not the experience you little snot.”
his answer only made me laugh more. his bad attitude was growing on me, despite his obvious want to be intimidating i was finding myself wanting to talk to him more.
“why would someone want to follow you around anyway?” i asked earnestly.
“its none of your business why someone would want to follow me around. if you dont know already.”
“i dont know, youre welcome to tell me.”
i put on the most sickeningly sweet voice and smile while saying that. as a response he growled and scoffed at me.
“look, if it was once that’s coincidence. twice, whatever, we live in the same area. but three times? i dont buy it.” he said shaking his head.
“well, i mean, i was the first one at that little gift shop the first time we ran into each other.”
my logic was sound, how could i be following him if i was there first?
“it doesnt matter who was there first we were both there. clearly you were following me.”
i shook my head at him, before smiling. “well you could be the one following me.”
“i was NOT following you. why would i follow you?” he asked.
with the straightest face i could muster and in the most serious tone, i threw his own words right back at him. “wouldnt you like to know.”
he repeated my words in an annoyed tone and grumbled. my face broke out into a smile as he finally spoke words i could understand.
“i dont know what youre trying to do here, but im gonna find out. and i definitely don’t appreciate,” he paused and looked around before speaking again, this time quietly so no one but us could hear. “someone like you playing games with me.”
i chose to ignore his little comment about my empowered status, and focus on the first part of his sentence.
“how do you intend to find out what im trying to do huh?” i asked tilting my head to the side.
“by keeping an eye on you.”
i nodded along to his simple response before looking around and surveying our situation.
we had previously been standing in a line waiting to order food, however in our conversation the line had moved up and left us hovering around the back. we werent keeping anyone waiting, yet. so before we could cause any problems to the poor people around us, i decided to suggest an idea i already knew the man in front of me would hate.
“lets have lunch together.”
his face morphed into something shocked and he stuttered out a jumbled string of sounds.
“arent you here to have lunch?” i asked. it was a dumb question, we were at a restaurant, why else would he be here? but the way he was acting made it seem like i had just suggested something outrageous, so it felt appropriate to ask.
“yes im here for lunch, what the hell do you think they sell here?”
“so,” i drew out the sound for dramatic effect. “have lunch with me.”
“why would i want to have lunch with you?” he asked, sounding just as adjusted as before, but still visibly shaken from my “strange” request.
“you said you wanted to keep an eye on me didnt you?”
“i can keep an eye on you from a distance.”
i thought over his response. obviously it was true but that wouldn’t work out for what i wanted so, quickly, i came up with what i thought was a very convincing argument.
“yes, but if we have lunch together maybe you can ‘find out what i want’. or even why ive been ‘following you’.” i said, putting up air quotes evertime i repeated something he had said.
“you know what, fine. i will have lunch with you, because i want to figure out what the fuck youre up to.”
i clapped my hands as enthusiastically as i could muster without making too much noise.
“perfect!”
he rolled his eyes, if i had to guess, already regretting agreeing to this and gestured for me to go up to the register. “well go up and order dumbass.”
i did as i was told and quickly went up and ordered my food and paid for it before stepping to the side and waiting for the man to order. he also finished quickly and before he could say anything i started walking towards an empty table. it was a small table in the corner. relatively private, so we could hopefully talk freely whenever the conversation circled around to things not for unempowered ears.
“so care to admit it?” he asked as he sat down.
“hmm? admit what?”
“that you’ve been following me.”
“as soon as you admit you’ve been following me.” i snap back with a smirk.
he clenched his jaw and growled at my response. “i havent been following you, thats bullshit. stop saying that to get a rise out of me.”
i clasped my hands on the table and leaned forward. speaking in a sweet tone i said, “then quit asking dumb questions.”
“im really supposed to believe that we just keep ending up near each other?”
“a fated lovers meeting! how romantic.”
he huffed and glared at me, but if i looked close enough i swear i could almost see his cheeks darkening.
“theres no such thing as fate.” he said.
i noted that he ignored the fact that i called us fated LOVERS but decided to drop it. for now.
“either way, im really not following you.” i shrugged.
“if you werent following me then why the hell would you ask to have lunch with me?”
why did i decide to have lunch with him? it was a fair question, i pondered it for a minute before ultimately deciding on the answer.
speaking quietly i said, “well its been a while since ive been able to talk to another werewolf in person.” i paused briefly before adding, “and youre hot so…”
i caught him off guard again. he started fumbling over his words for what seemed like the millionth time today, and this time i knew for a fact there was a blush spreading on his cheeks.
he composed himself enough to speak.
“thank you, but dont think compliments are going to make me trust you. im not that easy.”
i laughed, “not THAT easy?”
“im not easy at all.” he growled.
“oh trust me i can tell, but…” i trailed off leaning my face closer to his. “you are getting flustered.”
he was turning red again, but this time i couldn’t tell if it was out of anger or embarrassment.
“i am not getting flustered and you are mot the one in control of this conversation.”
“oh? you like being in control then?”
“yes, i do like being in control.” his eyes narrowed at me. “you’re not gonna fluster me with that one.”
he had just basically admitted that i had been flustering him which made me smile to myself.
“how predictable of you. ill keep that in mind.”
he rolled his eyes at me. there was a brief moment of silence were we both just sat there looking at each other. i certainly didnt mind, i meant it when i said he was a sight to look at. i took the moment to really take in his face. his skin was a warm bronze, and there was a mole below his left eye. his eyes themselves were a beautiful dark brown and were still hard with distrust even when he wasnt glaring at me.
his hair was a dark brown as well, but it might as well have been black, it was pushed back but there were a few loose strands that had fallen in his face. finally there was a scar through his lip. it wasn’t very big, but it was still quite visible making me think he got it relatively recent instead of a childhood injury.
after our moment of silence, he decided to break it with asking a question.
“whats your name?”
“whats you’re name?” i wasn’t even against giving him my name. at this point i was just pushing his buttons.
“ill tell you mine if you tell me yours.” he said raising an eyebrow at me challengingly.
i sighed in defeat, “my name is felix.”
he made a hum of acknowledgment, and i waited for him to tell me his name in response but the silence started to spread on a bit to long. i decided to gently prod for a reply.
“and your name is?”
he huffed a sigh, and appeared to be pondering for a moment before ultimately settling to tell me.
“its david.”
i hummed in response, which made a looks of scepticism cross his face.
“david shaw.”
i tilted my head at him, whatever he was trying to tell me i wasn’t getting.
“you dont know?”
“dont know what?”
“my name.”
i sighed, “are we back on the following thing? i promise it really was just a coincidence.”
“no i just,” david grumbled before changing approach. “you’re not from here are you?”
i snorted, “i thought that was pretty obvious.”
he sighed. i couldn’t exactly tell what the sigh meant, but the way he looked at me after that seemed to change. maybe he finally realized that i wasn’t actually someone out to get him, or maybe he just thought i was stupid for not recognizing him. i decided to hope for the first option.
“see! im innocent!”
he scoffed, “ive known you for ten minutes and even i know you’re not innocent.”
“you say that like its a bad thing.”
“i never said that. under the right circumstances that can be a very good thing. but i dont need to be putting anymore thoughts into that twisted head of yours.”
i smirked at him, “too late for that.”
“god you’re forward.” he grumbled. “this is not helping your case that this is a coincidence. unless you flirt with every random stranger you run into.”
“only the hot ones.” i said winking.
“eat your food!”
i laughed and did as i was told, picking up a fry and eating it while looking at him. he rolled his eyes at me and took a bite of his own food before speaking again.
“so are you going to tell me anything about yourself?”
“oh? you wanna learn more about me?”
“learning more about you is a strategic move dumbass. i want you to prove your innocence.”
i hummed. it seemed like a reasonable explanation, besides perhaps if i told him more about me i could convince him to tell me about himself, and that definitely peaked my interest.
i thought for a moment thinking about what could be relevant in telling him before deciding on the basics.
“well, i moved here about two months ago. i got promoted at my job and well my nee position would have required me coming here very often so instead of constant back and forth i thought it would be better if i just moved out here.”
“how long have you been at that job?” david asked, seemingly genuinely interested in it.
“a couple years. its not too difficult, just a lot of typing.”
“so its an office job?”
“dont be judgy.” i said pointing an accusatory finger at him.
“it wasn’t judgy. it was just a question. ive never had an office job.”
“of course you haven’t.”
“whats that supposed to mean?” he asked narrowing his eyes.
“nothing.” i said slyly.
he huffed but seemed to drop it for now. his voice was quiet when he asked his next question.
“do you have a pack?”
i expect this question was coming, but i hadn’t planned how to answer it. i sat there chewing on the inside of my cheek ultimately settling on an answer.
“i have one back home. but with the distance im not sure how often ill really see them anymore so… im lone wolfing it as of now i guess.”
an awkward laugh escaped my mouth for a moment. it felt bad to say that, but when i moved i knew i wanted to make a fresh start. it isnt like i had to suddenly shun my old pack, i still kept in touch with my friends and family who were still active members in it, but to call it my pack anymore wouldnt be true at all.
“im…” he paused, apparently looking for the right words to say. “…sorry to hear that.”
i shrugged. it wasnt a good situation, but i made my choice and there was no use wallowing in it now.
changing the topic, david spoke again. “what about hobbies?”
“i do a lot of things! recently ive been doing a lot of gaming.”
“what system?” he hummed.
“switch and pc normally.”
“well what kind of games do you play?”
“cozy games and visual novels mostly.”
david made a displeased noise which made me raise an eyebrow at him.
“you dont like games like that?”
“theyre not exactly my speed.”
i laughed at his response. i could have guessed that but hearing just how against them he was was entertaining to hear.
“what kind of games do you like then?”
“narrative heavy games, fighting games. something with a plot, or something quick. i dont want to just wander around aimlessly.”
“visual novels have a plot. so do most cozy games you know. theres a lot of story to uncover if you look closely.” i said mater-of-factly.
“uh huh, sure.”
he didnt seem convinced. maybe i could get him to play one of my favorite games one day, just to see if i could convince him that they were worthwhile.
“do you have any pets?”
“no. but! i would love to have some someday. maybe a cat! theyre so sweet.”
he chuckled, “all right.”
“you done with you’re interrogation now?”
“yes smartass, im done.” he looked me over for a minute before speaking again. “for now. you seem safe enough.”
“learned all that from me liking gaming did you?”
he pulled an unamused face and looked at me. he couldn’t deny it though. he didnt ask anything too serious even if i joked that it was an interrogation. he wasnt selling that he actually thought i was dangerous even if thats what he said.
“can i ask my own question now?”
“you’re welcome to ask. weather i answer will depend entirely on what the questions are.”
i shook my head but went ahead with my question, “what do you do for work?”
he sighed, “i run a private security company.”
“for empowered events or…?”
“yes. its a pack business.”
“oh.”
initially that sounded normal, plenty of empowered events needed security. but then the implications hit me. he runs it. why would some random member of a pack be running the business?
“so… youre a pack alpha?”
i dont know if it was my question or my tone but something about what i said made david laugh. the first full blown laugh i heard him give this whole afternoon. it was a very pretty sound, and if he wasnt laughing at me i would have taken the time to admire it more. instead my face scrunched up and i sighed.
“is that why you were so shocked when i didnt know who you were?”
“it was less me, and more the packs name. but yes. it was a pretty clear you werent from here when you didn’t recognize my last name.”
i puffed out my cheeks and frowned. “at least its good to know that youre not only hot but capable too.”
“and its good to know not even learning that im a pack alpha will keep you from being so forward.” he groaned.
i laughed, “youre not my alpha, i can say whatever i want. besides if you dont like it you could just leave.”
“thats awfully bold of you to say. what if i did leave?”
“id be very sad, i might even chase after you. then i really would be following you.”
he scoffed. “you’ve got a lot of nerve. i accuse you of following me and not only do you turn it into us having lunch together but you make jokes about it.”
“i turned it into a lunch date. say it like it is.”
“this is not a date.”
“not with that attitude.”
he growled and clenched his hand that was resting on the table. it probably could have been classified as a threat of violence but if i learned anything from david in our short time together it was that even if he acted big and tough he wasn’t going to do anything more than grumble and have a bad attitude.
the thought did cross my mind that he probably could cause me a great deal of harm if he really wanted to. anyone taking a look again david could probably draw that conclusion, but i had the added bonus of not only knowing hes a shifter but also the alpha of a pack. i should be intimidated, but clearly my animal instincts are a bit off.
“you are frustrating.” he trailed off.
instead of waiting for him to finish i pushed. “but?”
“but im also still sitting here so i guess that says something.”
pushing his buttons was too easy.
“oh? dose that mean you like me?”
it was a schoolyard taunt. one that probably made me look incredibly childish compared to the seriousness of david, but as he said, he was still sitting here.
“it says something you can infer dumbass. just dont go drawing too many conclusions.”
i laughed, partly at how he didn’t deny that he liked me and partly at the fact that we both knew i would draw way to many conclusions.
he shook his head before glancing at his phone.
“its getting late, i need to get going.” he started standing up while gathering his trash. “ill leave the where of that to your imagination, since youll probably find a way to show up there anyway.”
i frowned. “i thought we had moved past the whole following thing.”
he sighed and bit the side of his cheek. possibly regretting his previous statement?
“that was said lightheartedly… i’m willing to believe that this really has just been a coincidence.”
i snorted at his admission. “you could work on the ‘lighthearted’ bit”
“sorry, thats about as lightheaded as i get. so if that doesn’t work for you consider that when i ask my next question.”
“this really has just been a game of twenty questions hasnt it?”
he ignored me and continued, “you are annoying, AND youre mouthy,”
i pursed my lips and nodded along with his statements. i wasn’t going to deny it, that would be a lie. but at least i was aware of my personal faults unlike david here.
“and…”
i tilted my head urging him to finish whatever he was going to say.
“i wouldn’t mind getting to know you a little better.”
my mouth droped as his admission but quickly morphed into a cheshire grin.
“wipe that look off your face you little snot.” he said angrily.
“why david, i wouldn’t mind getting to know you better also.” i said placing my hand over my heart.
he seemed to be rethinking his decision at my little stunt. but after a moment of him angrily looking at the wall behind me he spoke again.
“then… can i have your number?”
i held out my hand for his phone, which he looked at me skeptically but ultimately handed it over. i put in my contact info, making a point to add a little heart next to my name, and handed the phone back to him. he huffed at what i assumed was my addition to my contact information however he was either not bothered enough to change or polite enough to not change it in front of me. either way i counted it as a victory.
“thank you. ill… shoot you a text.”
“i look forward to hearing from you.” i winked at him as i said that, which made him roll his eyes for what was at least the 10th time today.
“i guess well go with it was nice meeting you.”
i nodded enthusiastically as he started to take a few steps away from the table.
“see you around trouble maker. if our past history has anything to say about it, im sure i will.”
“bye for now david.”
he gave me one last look over and nod before he left. i watched him leave silently. it was a turn of events i hadn’t expected this afternoon to take, but i was more than happy with it. i hoped id hear from david soon.
