Peter Tork: Anyway here’s wonderwall

every time i mention this movie… EVERY TIME!!!

(Love your stuff!) A sad ask: Romanced companions fo4 reactions to sole buried alive in a tunnel or deteriorated vault?

Um. This is probably the saddest thing I’ve ever written. But I enjoyed writing it. It was angsty, but fun to write. I’ll spell check & add the read me once I get home; I’m currently driving (well, passenger-ing) into Boston, so I don’t have laptop access right now. I’ll add a pic of the location I used for...visualization, I guess. Thank you so, so much for the request, I love writing them! Please enjoy! 🥰

FO4 (Romanced) Companions React: Sole Being Buried Alive

Sole and their lover were departing from Sanctuary when Sole noticed a small cave just outside the Red Rocket Truck stop. The pair went to inspect the cave, much to the reluctance of their partner:

MacCready: MacCready watched his partner prepare to crawl into the little cavern and rolled his eyes. “Come on. This is a waste of time. There probably isn’t anything valuable in there anyway,” he said, trying to talk his lover out of crawling into the rat-infested burrow, “It’s just a stupid molerat hole.” Sole ignored their companion and continued inching into the obviously unstable cave. MacCready tried again. “If you think I’m crawling in after you, I’m not,” he declared, turning on his heels, “I’m going to Concord. Come find me when you’re done exploring.” When he saw that Sole was still working on crawling into the burrow, he anxiously pleaded with his lover. “[Name], it’s not safe. Please don’t go in there. Whatever you’re looking for in there probably isn’t worth the risk.” Suddenly, there was a loud rumble and the dirt and rock facade of the cave collapsed. “[Name]!” MacCready scrambled to the cave, desperately digging through the fallen debris to save his partner. “Oh no! Oh no! Oh my god. Say something, love. Anything!” After about 20 minutes of trying, MacCready realized his efforts were going to prove fruitless. “Fu—“ MacCready hesitated, “No...” Sole was gone. He’d let another loved one down. MacCready angrily kicked some stones off to the side before sitting down and burying his face in his hands. After about an hour, he stood up. He fished through his bag and pulled out his toy soldier, placing it on the dirt pile that covered his former love. “I’m sorry, beautiful. I...I’m sorry I let you down. I love you so much.” He wiped away a lone tear and began his solo trek to Goodneighbor.

Cait: “What’re ye doin there? Pretendin to be a mole rat?” Cait teased as she watched her partner attempt to crawl into a dirt cave. “I know ye like to role play, but this ain’t the time or place...and I ain’t got a rodent kink, darlin.” Sole continued to burrow into the cavern. Cait noticed a few rocks tumbling down the sides and suddenly became alert. “Ye sure that’s safe? Doesn’t look too steady to me...” the redhead commented. Sole disregarded the warning. “Doll, I love ya, and I knew yer havin yerself a ball with all that crawlin and diggin, but I think you should stop now,” She continued, “Why don’t we head to Concord, yeah? Heard they got some fuckin good loot.” Before Sole could respond, the pair head a loud rumbling. “Deathclaw?” Cait asked, looking around frantically and loading her shotgun. Suddenly, the walls of the cave collapsed and Sole was buried alive. “SHITE! DARLIN!” Cait shrieked, sprinting over to the heap of dirt and rocks that buried their lover. “Oh please no this can’t be fuckin happenin. Why?” The redhead cried. “Mother of fucking Christ why?” Cait screamed at the top of her lungs and then completely broke down. “I’m fuckin cursed.” Cait frantically dug through her inventory and pulled out a syringe. “For the first time in my life I was truly happy. I didn’t need chems. They were makin me sick. And This...this [beautiful/handsome] [woman/man] took me under their wing and helped me break free from my shackles. And now they’re gone forever. Like any other good thing in me life.” She studied the needle. “This life...my life. It’s an absolute fuckin joke,” she commented before injecting herself with a lethal amount of psycho. “I’m sorry, darlin. But I love ye. I love ye so fuckin much.”

Hancock: “Come on, babe. I don’t think you’re gonna find anything useful in there.” Sole ignored their companion and continued crawling. Hancock tried again. “What are you looking for, exactly? Armor? Weapons? Chems? Whatever it is you need, I can hook ya up. Ya don’t need to be doin this risky shit.” Sole ignored their companion and continued borrowing. When Hancock noticed rocks beginning to tumble down the facade of the cave, he knew he had to act quickly. He didn’t want to panic Sole, but he needed to get them out quickly. He had an idea. “Hey, doll. Why don’t we do somethin else instead? I think I saw a mattress a little further back if you’re catchin my drift.” Sole looked back at their companion and Hancock winked. Just as they began to crawl out, the walls began to collapse. “Shit!” Hancock yelled, running over to their panic-stricken lover. Before he could make it over to them, they were buried by dirt and stone. “[Name], oh my fucking god.” Hancock frantically dug through the dirt. “Stay with me, babe. Stay with me. You’re okay. We’ll getcha out of this sand pile.” Hancock proceeded to inject himself with several hits of Psychobuff before tunneling through the dirt pile. Even with the chems, there was too much debris to break through. The chems wore off and Hancock was left exhausted and dejected. He placed a weak hand on the mound of dirt Sole was buried under. “I’m sorry I couldn’t save ya, babe. I love ya so damn much.”

Curie: “[Madam/Monesieur], please be careful. That formation looks extremely insecure.” Sole continued to burrow deeper in the cavern and Curie put a gentle hand on their back. “I’m sure we can find whatever you’re looking for in a safer manner. Additionally, mole rats are notorious for hoarding junk. We can probably find a caravan near concord with more useful items.” Sole turned around to respond to their partner when the walls began to cave in. “Oh non! My love!” Curie tried to pull Sole out from the crumbling cavern, but the force of the falling debris was too strong. Curie fell face down into the dirt. She was covered in scrapes, but she continued to desperately dig through the rubble to save her lover. “Please, please, oh please, please...” she dug for several minutes to no avail. When she realized that Sole was gone, she let out a devastated cry. “Je suis désolé, my love. I wish I could’ve done more.” Curie’s voice cracked as she wept, “T’es l’amour de ma vie.” After about an hour of mourning, Curie stood up. She gathered some wildflowers and created a bouquet which she laid on the pile of debris that covered Sole’s body. “Adieu,” Curie whispered as she gently pet the dirt. She wiped away her remaining tears and began her journey back to Vault 88.

Gage: “Boss come on. What do those rats have that could possibly be of value to us?” Sole continued to push themselves deeper into the cavern. Gage grew more irritated. “Yo. Quit ignorin me. I’m serious. You’re puttin yourself at risk for no good reason.” Sole continued to burrow. “What’s the matter with you? What could you possibly want that those rats have? I can get it for you; I‘ve got connections, hot stuff.” Gage sighed, “Look, I’m not tryna be a jerk, okay? I’d just hate to see those walls cave—“ just as he was finishing his sentence, the foundation of the cave collapsed, crushing Sole under a mountain of dirt and stone. “BOSS!” Gage yelled, charging over to the former cave. “Fuck, fuck, fuck. This ain’t happenin. This ain’t fuckin happenin right now.” Gage began to furiously dig through the dirt. “God fuckin dammit!” He threw a rock out of frustration and fought back tears. “Nah, ya ain’t gonna cry over this, Gage. It happens all the time. Part of this lifestyle.” One single tear managed to escape from his eyes and he desperately wiped it away. “Fuck. I loved ya, boss. Really did.” The raider picked up a piece of scrap wood and began to carve it using his switchblade. After a few hours, he had successfully crafted a sculpture of a Nuka Cola bottle with the words Rest Easy, [Name] etched around the base of the bottle. He laid the sculpture down near the dirt pile that covered his lover’s body and began his hike back to Nuka World.

Preston: “I trust your judgment, General, but I don’t think I understand the purpose of exploring this cave. It seems dangerous.” Sole ignored their partner’s warning and continued to dig. Preston grew nervous. “Are you sure that’s safe, babe? These dens tend to be infested with mole rats.” Sole continued to burrow deeper into the cave. “Come on, [name]. It’s not worth it, especially when Concord is only two miles away. Let’s go.” Despite Preston’s pleas, his lover didn’t give up their endeavor. Before either had any time to react, the dirt walls of the cave crumbled and crushed Sole. “BABE! Oh my God!” Preston rushed over to the rumble and waited for some indication of life beneath the rubble. But everything was eerily still and silent. “B-babe?” Preston called, tears rolling down his face. When there was no response, he knew his partner was gone. “I love you, [name]. I’ll never forget everything that you’ve done for me. You’ve had such a positive impact on my life I...I don’t know if I’d still be here today if it weren’t for you.” By banging two rocks together for several minutes, Preston was able to craft a stone heart. He laid the monument down on the dirt mound that covered Sole’s body and returned to Sanctuary to report the tragic news.

Piper: “Hey, cut it out. That rat’s nest isn’t safe.” Piper called to her companion. Sole ignored the journalist and continued to crawl into the cave anyway. Piper grew more frustrated. “Blue! I’m serious. Stop it. You’re going to get hurt—or worse!” Sole, yet again, disregarded their companion’s warning and continued into the cavern. Piper rolled her eyes. “Fine. Whatever. You win. I’ll help you explore the stupid cave. But don’t get all huffy when you don’t find anything useful in there.” The reporter crouched down and began to crawl into the crevasse. “Damn Blue, this cave is tiny. You sure we’re both gonna be able to fit in there?” Just then the pair heard a loud rumble and the ceiling started to cave in. Piper shot backward out of the cave entrance, but Sole was too far in to escape. The dirt and stone walls buried them alive. Piper gasped and tears rolled furiously down her face. “[Name]! [Name]! Oh, Christ please answer me! [Name]!” Piper crumbled to the ground and sobbed violently. She knew her partner was gone forever. Before heading back to Diamond City, she gathered drew a heart in the dirt pile that covered Sole’s body. “Rest In Peace, Blue. I...I love you.”

Danse: “Soldier, these mole rat dens are notorious for being structurally unstable and severely radioactive.” Danse continued, “Those vile creatures are also festering with disease. I strongly discourage you from crawling in there.” Sole ignored their partner’s warning and continued borrowing into the cave. Danse had a premonition that something bad was about to happen, and his usual composure was overridden by a rare feeling of anxiety. “[Name]! This is blatant insubordination,” he yelled out, much harsher than he had intended, “Evacuate that craven immediately. That is an order.” Sole, alarmed by their partner’s sudden acerbity, looked back at the Paladin. Suddenly, a loud rumble shook the air. “Soldier!” Danse bolted to collapsing and grabbed his lover’s hands. Before he could fully pull them out, however, the cavern caved in. “Soldier? [Name]? [Name], you can’t be gone. Hang in there. Please.” Danse clenched his teeth as he tried to absorb what had just happened. Just hours before, Sole was laughing, talking about the future, and showering him with hugs and sweet kisses. And in an instant, they were gone. Forever. Using a piece of scrap wood, he ingrained an epitaph to honor Sole and the tremendous impact they had made on his life. “You fought hard soldier. Thank you for your service...” he paused, “And...thank you for everything you’ve done for me, [name]. You’ve changed my life for the better. I love you.” He laid the piece of wood down on the pile of dirt that covered Sole’s body and began his journey back to Listening Post Bravo. The memorial read: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -- I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.

“I told them they were free. I cannot tell them now they are not free to join me.”

“Woman? Is that meant to insult me? I would return the slap, if I took you for a man.”

“I say, you are mad.”  

“To be sure, I am only a young girl and know little of war. What do you think, my lords?”  

“I would call that proof of his sincerity.”

“All loyalties are uncertain in such times as these.”

“And I shall be betrayed twice more, once for gold and once for love.”

“But that was the tourney when he crowned Lyanna Stark as queen of love and beauty!”

“Princess Elia was there, his wife, and yet my brother gave the crown to the Stark girl, and later stole her away from her betrothed.”

“How could he do that? Did his wife treat him so ill?”  

“It is not for such as me to say what might have been in your brother’s heart, Your Grace.”

“The Princess was a good and gracious lady, though her health was ever delicate.”

“But I am not certain it was in him to be happy.”  

“You make him sound so sour.”

“Not sour, no, but... there was a melancholy to the Prince, a sense...”

“A sense... of doom.”

“He/She was born in grief, my queen, and that shadow hung over him/her all life.”  

“It was the shadow of Summerhall that haunted him, was it not?”  

“And yet Summerhall was the place the prince loved best.”

“He/She would go there from time to time, with only a harp for company.”

“Even the knights of the Kingsguard did not attend him/her there.”

“He/She liked to sleep in the ruined hall, beneath the moon and stars, and whenever he/she came back it was with a song.”

“It is Ghiscari, the old pure tongue. It means ‘Mother.’”

“Fire consumes.”

“It consumes, and when it is done there is nothing left. Nothing.”  

“Sweet friend. What are you saying?”  

“Nothing I have not said before.”

“Six times, ___? Six times is too many.”

“I dreamt a wolf howling in the rain, but no one heard his grief.”

“I dreamt such a clangor I thought my head might burst, drums and horns and pipes and screams, but the saddest sound was the little bells.”

“I dreamt of a maid at a feast with purple serpents in her hair, venom dripping from their fangs.”

“I dreamt that maid again, slaying a savage giant in a castle built of snow.”[<- probably sansa] She turned her head sharply and smiled through the gloom, right at Arya.

“You cannot hide from me, child. Come closer, now.”

“I see you, wolf child. Blood child. I thought it was the lord who smelled of death...”

“You are cruel to come to my hill, cruel.”

“I gorged on grief at Summerhall, I need none of yours. Begone from here, dark heart!”  

“My lady? You have a baseborn brother... ”  

“He’s with the Night’s Watch on the Wall.”

“Maybe I should go to the Wall instead of Riverrun.”

“___ wouldn’t care who I killed or whether I brushed my hair...”

“___ looks like me, even though he’s bastard-born.”

“He used to muss my hair and call me ‘little sister.’”

“Just saying his name makes me sad.”

“I wanted to be alone, away from all the voices, away from their hollow words and broken promises.”

“Once, at the Citadel, I came into an empty room and saw an empty chair.”

“Yet I knew a woman had been there, only a moment before.”

“If we leave our smells behind us when we leave a room, surely something of our souls must remain when we leave this life?”

“There’s the wench I remember.”

“You gave her a tourney sword.”  

“I’ll pay her bloody ransom. Gold, sapphires, whatever you want. Pull her out of there.”  

“You want her? Go get her.”  

“Well, what in seven hells do I do now?”

“I ought to lop my left hand off as well, for all the good it does me.”  

“And I’ll serve you the same if you give me trouble.”

“We’re taking the wench.”  

“Her name is ___.”

“I am grateful, but... you were well away. Why come back?”  

“I dreamed of you.”

“First I anger Brother, and now my son, but all I have done is speak the truth.”

“Are men so fragile they cannot bear to hear it?”

“My lord husband is dead, as is my father.”

“Two of my sons have been murdered, my daughter has been given to a faithless dwarf to bear his vile children, my other daughter is vanished and likely dead, and my last son and my only brother are both angry with me.”

“My children sons are dead and daughters lost. What could possibly be amiss?”

“She-bears, aye. We have needed to be.”

“The men would be off fishing, like as not. The wives they left behind had to defend themselves and their children, or else be carried off.”  

“Is this my punishment for opposing him about his brother? Or for being a woman, and worse, a mother?”

“I left my wife at Riverrun. I want my mother elsewhere.”

“If you keep all your treasures in one purse, you only make it easier for those who would rob you.”

“After the wedding, you shall go to Seagard, that is my royal command.”

“That had ended when father decided it was making me soft as a girl.”

“But if you’re stupid enough to try again, I’ll hurt you.”  

“Why don’t you just kill me like you did Mycah?”

“The next time you say that name I’ll beat you so bad you’ll wish I killed you.”  

“Even a fish might have trouble in this river.”

“Still, drowning might be better than King’s Landing.”

“Don’t even think about it.”  

“Then I’ll take as much gold as I can carry, laugh in his face, and ride off.”

“If he doesn’t take me, he’d be wise to kill me, but he won’t.”

“Too much his father’s son, from what I hear.”

“Fine with me. Either way I win.”

“So stop whimpering and snapping at me, I’m sick of it.”

“Keep your mouth shut and do as I tell you, and maybe we’ll even be in time for your uncle’s bloody wedding.”

“Be gentle with yourself.”

“It is good that you have woken, but you must give yourself time to heal.”

“We drowned the wound with boiling wine, and closed you up with a poultice of nettle, mustard seed and moldy bread, but unless you rest...”

“If we are offered refreshment when we arrive, on no account refuse.”

“Take what is offered, and eat and drink where all can see. If nothing is offered, ask for bread and cheese and a cup of wine.”  

“I’m more wet than hungry...”  

“Listen to me. Once you have eaten of his bread and salt, you have the guest right, and the laws of hospitality protect you beneath his roof.”  

“I have an army to protect me, Mother, I don’t need to trust in bread and salt.”

“But if it pleases Lord Walder to serve me stewed crow smothered in maggots, I’ll eat it and ask for a second bowl.”  

“Keep your eyes down and your tone respectful and say ser a lot, and most knights will never see you.”

“They pay more mind to horses than to smallfolk.”

“He might have known Stranger if he’d ever seen me ride him.”

“No one sang the words, but I knew ‘The Rains of Castamere’ when I heard it.”

“I will kill the old man, I can do that much at least.”  

“It hurts so much. Our children, all our sweet babes.”

“Please, make it stop, make it stop hurting...”

“Mad. She’s lost her wits.”

“No, don’t, don’t cut my hair, ___loves my hair.”

“Come with me. We have to get away from here, and now.”

“We have to go get my mother.”

“I am sorry, my lord.”  

“Why? Some cook should be sorry. Not you. The pease are not your province.”

“They are green and round, what more can one expect of pease? Here, I’ll have another serving, if it please my lady.”

“That was stupid. Now I have to eat them all, or she’ll be sorry all over again.”

“I won’t intrude. Dress warmly, my lady, the wind is brisk out there.”

“Kings are falling like leaves this autumn.” “

“It would seem our little war is winning itself.”  

“Write to Lord Frey and tell him. The king commands. I’m going to have it served to ___ at my wedding feast.”  

“Sire, the lady is now your aunt by marriage.”  

“A jest. He did not mean it.”  

“He was a traitor, and I want his stupid head. I’m going to make Sansa kiss it.”

“She/He is no longer yours to torment. Understand that, monster.”  

“You’re the monster, Uncle.”  

“Perhaps you should speak more softly to me, then.”

“Monsters are dangerous beasts, and just now kings seem to be dying like flies.”

“Aerys also felt the need to remind men that he was king. And he was passing fond of ripping tongues out as well.”

“When your enemies defy you, you must serve them steel and fire. When they go to their knees, however, you must help them back to their feet.”

“And any man who must say ‘I am the king’ is no true king at all.”

“When I’ve won your war for you, we will restore the king’s peace and the king’s justice.”

“Oh, my, hasn’t this gotten interesting?”

“___, apologize to your grandfather.”

“Why should I? Everyone knows it’s true.”

“My father won all the battles. He killed Prince Rhaegar and took the crown, while your father was hiding under Casterly Rock.”

“A strong king acts boldly, he doesn’t just talk.”  

“Thank you for that wisdom, Your Grace.”

“I don’t want any dreamwine.”

“Father, I am sorry. Joff has always been willful, I did warn you...”  

“There is a long league’s worth of difference between willful and stupid.”

“‘A strong king acts boldly?’ Who told him that?”  

“Not me, I promise you.”

“The part about you hiding under Casterly Rock does sound like ___.”

“And what were you telling him, pray? I did not fight a war to seat Robert the Second on the Iron Throne.”

“You gave me to understand the boy cared nothing for his father.”  

“Why would he? Robert ignored him.”

“He would have beat him if I’d allowed it.”

“That brute you made me marry once hit the boy so hard he knocked out two of his baby teeth, over some mischief with a cat.”

“I told him I’d kill him in his sleep if he ever did it again, and he never did, but sometimes he would say things...”  

“It appears things needed to be said.”

“Not Robert the Second. Aerys the Third.”  

“The boy is thirteen. There is time yet.”

“That’s unlike him; he’s more upset than he wishes to show.”

“He requires a sharp lesson.”  

“Wars are won with quills and ravens, wasn’t that what you said?”

“I must congratulate you. How long have you and Walder Frey been plotting this?”  

“I mislike that word.”

“And I mislike being left in the dark.”  

“There was no reason to tell you. You had no part in this.”

“No one was told, save those who had a part to play.”

“And they were only told as much as they needed to know.”

“You ought to know that there is no other way to keep a secret - here, especially.”

“My object was to rid us of a dangerous enemy as cheaply as I could, not to indulge your curiosity or make your sister feel important.”

“You have a certain cunning, but the plain truth is you talk too much.”

“That loose tongue of yours will be your undoing.”  

“You should have let Joff tear it out.”  

“You would do well not to tempt me.”

“Oh? Is this something I’m allowed to know, or should I leave so you can discuss it with yourself?”

“A tool for every task, isn’t that how it works? My tool is yours, Father.”

“Never let it be said that my House blew its trumpets and I did not respond.”

“I was made to suffer my father’s follies. I will not suffer yours. Enough.”

“Very well, as you ask so pleasantly.”

“It might serve, but the Snake will not be happy.”

“Far be it from me to question your cunning, father, but in your place I do believe I’d have let Robert Baratheon bloody his own hands.”

“I grant you, it was done too brutally.”

“The Princess need not have been harmed at all, that was sheer folly. By herself she was nothing.”  

“Then why did the Mountain kill her?”  

“Because I did not tell him to spare her. I doubt I mentioned her at all.”

“I had more pressing concerns.”

“That was the thing I feared most.”

“Nor did I yet grasp what I had in The Mountain, only that he was huge and terrible in battle.”

“If Lorch had half the wits the gods gave a turnip, he would have calmed her with a few sweet words and used a soft silk pillow.”

“So Lord Walder slew him under his own roof, at his own table?”

“Slain as well, I’d say. A pair of wolfskins.”

“Frey had intended to keep her captive, but perhaps something went awry.”  

“So much for guest right.”  

“The blood is on his hands, not mine.”

“Explain to me why it is more noble to kill ten thousand men in battle than a dozen at dinner.”

“I had not forgotten, though I’d hoped you had.”

“I am not seeing the body, no, Your Kingliness.”

“Yet in the city, the lions prance and dance.”

“The Red Wedding, the smallfolk are calling it.”

“I was sick unto death of this wretched boy before he was even born.”

“His very name is a roaring in my ears and a dark cloud upon my soul.”

“He is mine own blood. Stop clutching me, woman.”

“And small men curse what they cannot understand.”  

“So tell me why you need this boy to wake your great stone dragon, my lady.”

“Only death can pay for life, my lord.”

“A great gift requires a great sacrifice.”

“Even an onion smuggler knows two onions from three. You are short a king, my lady/lord.”  

“He/She has you there, my lady. Two is not three.”

“A certain Lysene pirate once told me that a good smuggler stays out of sight.”

“Black sails, muffled oars, and a crew that knows how to hold their tongues.”  

“A crew with no tongues is even better. Big strong mutes who cannot read or write.”

“But I am glad to know that someone watches your back, old friend.”

“Will the king give the boy to the red priestess, do you think?”

“One little dragon could end this great big war.”

3 months ago…

You stood in front of Spencer, who was sitting in the chair with a confused look on his face. “Are… are you going to say some…” “Yeah yeah sorry. I just… this is really hard to confront this to you.” You said interrupting him as you paced back in forth. Spencer himself looked a little uneasy too, scared of what your going to say. You’ve been meaning to tell Spencer about your feelings towards him but, he just makes it so hard when he’s so… attractive and sweet and everything you could ask for. You try to be optimistic, thinking maybe he will like you back, like in the movies and it all works out, maybe even a kiss if your lucky. With your positive thoughts, you gained up the courage to stop in your tracks and look him in the eye. “Spencer… I’ve been meaning to tell you that… I like you, a lot. Like not in the friendship way, but the relationship way. I really hope this doesn’t ruin our friendship and-and if you don’t like me back that’s totally okay. We could just put this behind us and pretend this 10 minutes never happened.” You rambled as you broke eye contact with him. You looked back up at him and he hesitated, his mouth opening and closing as he doesn’t know what to say. “God… that was… Spencer I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have put you in this position. I’m so stupid…” “No Y/N your not stupid. It’s just… I need time to process this okay?” He said grabbing your hands in his. He’s never done that before. Is this a sign? “Okay okay I totally understand thank you for not running away or anything like that.” You said as he grazed the tops of your hands with his thumbs.

Present day…

You sat at your desk, as you and the rest of the team go through files until you heard the door open and footsteps walking towards you. “Here is your latte.” Scott, the new intern, said giving you the steaming up as he kept low key. “Thanks.” You whispered. He always came to ask if you needed anything. It wasn’t really a part of his job, but when he wasn’t doing anything, he seeks out if you need assistance. And if you do need anything, most of the time it is coffee. Scott is very sweet, funny, and he’s even cute. You have kind of started to grow on him and started to have the slightest crush on him with all of the attention he gives you. But when Spencer said he needed time to process your feelings, it wasn’t a nicer way to say no. He really needed to think about it, not just to let it go. And he’s been thinking about you ever since that day, and he is starting to take a little more interest in you. The way you twirl your hair between your fingers. The way your brow creases when you concentrate. The way certain clothes hug your body. And the biggest symptom he has noticed about himself, is that he doesn’t like Scott. Why? Because he’s constantly with you. Constantly making you happy. Spencer can’t even deny himself that it’s jealousy. He would watch as he brought you coffee and you smiling widely at him and Spencer would cringe. He hated seeing him even near you. He missed the little gestures you had toward him. He wanted you to pay more attention to him like you used to, when Spencer was so oblivious to your love for him. But the next day, when he was sitting at his desk with a book in his lap, he couldn’t help but over hear your’s and Scott’s conversation. “So I was wondering if you had any plans tonight?” “Ummm not that I can think of. What do you have in mind?” You asked twirling your hair again. “I was wondering if you wanted to get some pizza and watch a few movies at my place tonight. You like marvel right?” He asked motioning towards your little Captain America pin on your bag. You giggled and nodded. “Yeah that sounds great!” You said. “Alright um I’ll text you a little later then.” He said with a toothy grin. “Okay.” You said turning back to your work. You turn your head to the right and saw Spencer’s face had gone pale. “Spence are you okay?” You ask furrowing your brow. “What um yeah I’m going to use the restroom.” He said quickly wiping a tear that fell down his cheek. You were half tempted to follow him, the image of a saddened Spencer broke your heart, but you decided to stay. As Spencer rushed to the bathroom, he couldn’t help but stop in his tracks at the familiar voice. He peeked around the corner and saw the dumb intern he hated, Scott, on the phone. “Yeah she’s a total babe… movies and pizza… I know right.” He said a few chuckles in between. Spencer stayed where he was, eavesdropping on your date. “Dude totally, I was probably going to bang her in the first place.” Spencer gasped and immediately ran back inside the bullpen. “Y/N can we talk like right now please?” He requested quickly approaching you, earning odd looks from a few of the team members. “Yeah Spence are you okay?” You ask as he laced his fingers with yours and took you into one of the back rooms. He shut the door and ran his fingers through his hair. “Spencer are you okay?” You ask for the third time. “Yeah… I mean kind of. I need to tell you something. Well two somethings. One your not going to like and I’m not sure about the other.” He rambled quickly pacing as he tugged at his hair. You interrupted his path and took hold of his wrists. “Spence calm down. Tell me what you need to say.” You said looking into his slightly red eyes. “Um I was going to the restroom and I overheard something. Y/N you can’t go with that guy okay? Please don’t. I don’t want you getting hurt.” He pleaded. “Spence he’s a nice guy he wouldn’t hurt me.” You say calmly. “No no you don’t understand he said… he’s going to… he’s going to disrespect you… he just wants you in his bed. I heard him on the phone and he said he planned on…” “Having sex with me?” You said finishing his sentence and saving him the pain of saying it himself. “Yeah but he used a more vulgar term.” He quietly said. “Screwing me?” “No.” “Knocking me up?” “Definitely not.” “Does it start with an F?” “No! He said he was going to bang you and I… I don’t want that happening to you.” He said as heat rose to his cheeks. You felt a heat rise too, but it wasn’t blush. The fact that Scott thought he could just use you for sex made you mad. You pulled out your phone and texted him that the date was off and he was an asshole. “There. I’ll give him a more professional confrontation tomorrow.” You say shoving your phone back into your back pocket. You expected to look up at Spencer and see a small smile on his lips, but his eyes were glued to the floor and he was biting his bottom lip. “Spencer what’s wrong? You said you had something else to tell me, is that it?” You asked easily getting under his gaze because of how tall he was. He nodded blinking quickly as he wiped his eyes. He’s crying. “Spencer please tell me what’s wrong.” You said your stomach curling up at the sight of Spencer sad. “Do… do you still like me?” He asked quietly. “Of course I do Spencer. Your my best friend. You didn’t ruin the date you actually saved me from it, so good job.” You said nudging his arm. You didn’t understand. “I’ve been thinking, ever since I told you I needed to, about how you liked me in the non-friendship relationship way.” He said quietly. That’s what was wrong. “Spencer I’m so sorry. I didn't… do you like me back?” You asked stepping closer to him. He looked up slightly, giving you the saddest puppy eyes you have ever seen, and he nodded. “Spencer I still like you. I’m sorry I put you through that.” You said grazing your thumb across his cheek, making his face light up. “You do?” He asked as you thought about all of the flirting you did in front of Spencer. “Of course. I just… I didn’t think you liked me back so I decided it was time to try to move on but your a tough cookie to move on from.” You said bopping him lightly on the nose. He smiled that adorable smile you fell in love with in the first place. “Well it’s about quitting time so what do you say we get some pizza and watch some Marvel movies?” You asked lacing your fingers with his. “Yeah I would love that.” He said smiling as he held your hands in his. You hesitated, but then stood on your tiptoes and placed a chaste kiss on his cheek before walking out of the little room. Spencer stood there breathless, his cheek tingling where you placed the kiss. He smiled to himself before following you out. You turned around and saw Spencer standing directly behind you. You looked at him and smiled, this is the man you should have been going out with in the first place.
