Rafe Cameron as your boyfriend
pairing: rafe cameron x fem!reader
warnings: fluff, angst, nsfw at the end
nav. // m.list // taglist
Tumblr media
the relationship
so. fucking. protective.
everyone in the outer banks knows that you’re his so they all know better than to touch you
if you’re at a party together, he either has his arm around your waist or he will keep an eye on you from the other side of the room, making sure no one makes a move on you
“rafe, please, I can take care of myself!” he would simply let out a chuckle as his grip on your waist tightens
“come sit on my lap, pretty girl” he says as his gaze is focused on the random guy that keeps checking you out
will walk over to him afterwards, “look at her again and I’ll kill you, alright?”
spoils you so much. doesn’t let you pay for anything
randomly texts you “buy yourself something nice, princess” after he transfers money to you
wheezie and sarah are like sisters to you
“rafe, can I please please record a tiktok video with y/n?” “god, wheezie, just leave us alone for a second, alright? we’re busy” but you’re already getting up and making your way to wheezie as rafe rolls his eyes and lets out a sigh
you’re the only one he truly trusts and cares about
affection
his hand is always on your waist or lower back
he doesn’t really like physical touch in public unless he feels threatened. he will make out with you in front of everyone with his hands on your ass if that’s the case
has trouble expressing how much you mean to him in words so he mostly does it through physical touch; lots of making out, hugs, hand holding, cuddling, forehead kisses etc.
plays with your hair while you’re cuddling <3
arguments
manipulative.
arguments can get very heated and he can say a lot of hurtful things to you. he has a very short temper
he will leave the room, slamming the door shut but will eventually come back after a few hours, crying and apologising to you
“please, just… don’t leave me. I can’t live without you, baby, please”
arguments with rafe are extremely mentally draining, but he is aware of his flaws and tries to do better for you
“I…I’m sorry baby. I love you, you know that, right?”
nsfw
always in control
if you’re in public together and he eyes you up and down with a smirk, just know that he’s horny and he’ll take you to the car or a public bathroom for a quickie
does not care who hears or sees you. all that matters to him is that everyone knows you’re his
“scream my name, baby. let them know who you belong to”
buys you so much lingerie. he loves going lingerie shopping with you and watching you try it on before he buys you everything you want
lots of degradation, hair pulling and choking
“my pretty little slut. you look so beautiful with my cock in your mouth”
loves fingering you with his rings on so you can feel the cold metal against your cunt
marks you with hickeys all over your body
“rafe, please. everyone will see them there” “I know, that’s the point”
can edge you for hours. especially when you’ve been misbehaving
“my poor baby. you wanna cum? then use your words and beg for it”
breeding kink!!!
fingers you after he came inside of you to keep it all in
immediately falls asleep after sex while his arms are wrapped tightly around you
Tumblr media
comments and reblogs are very much appreciated since they keep me motivated to write more!!

I have a question for a Matt fic if you can’t do it that’s fine, Could you possibly do a matt version of vie (I think that’s it idk) if you want to and can 😁🫶🏻
-anonymous out for now
Foe
Tumblr media
Pairing: Matt Sturniolo X Female Reader
Synopsis: Y/N absolutely hates Matt with a burning passion. Nick and Chris get fed up with them after hearing them argue on their road trip. What happens when he locks them in a hotel room together??🗣️
Warnings⚠️: SMUTTTTT. Nothing too crazy though. This is also for another request I got for enemies to lovers with Matt where they travel far and stop in different hotels and have to stay together LOL. Also I was half asleep writing this, so I hope yall enjoy🤭
Song for the imagine: Back to the Old House-The Smiths
⚠️This is an 18+ imagine, so minors do not interact, or do??⚠️
And you never knew
How much I really liked you
Cause I never even told you
Oh, but I meant to
Are you still there?
I felt my eye twitching, my head spinning and my jaw hurting from the fake smile I had plastered on my face.
“A road trip…how fun” I said through my teeth looking at Nick
“I figured since we have this whole month why not just drive through a couple of states you know” he said
“And you want me to come?” I asked furrowing my brows
“Yes we do” Chris said
“Not me” Matt shot out
I looked over at Matt giving him a death stare and rolling my eyes.
“I mean I’m happy staying here you know. Why don’t you guys go as brothers and enjoy this time for yourselves” I said looking back at Nick
“We really want you to come though like badly, and you can split the driving with Matt since we can’t drive for shit” he said pointing between him and Chris
“Ughhh fine I’ll go” I said throwing myself back on the bed
“Trust me we’d be fine without you” Matt said smacking my head
“Fuck off” I said slapping his hand away
“Matt literally shut the fuck up” Nick said
A few days had passed and it was now time to venture out to some random states. I wasn’t even sure what to pack, but all I know is I had a huge suitcase and a duffel bag. I mean you can’t be too sure right?
I had driven to the triplets house since we were taking their bigger car. When I pulled up Matt was packing some stuff into the trunk while Chris and Nick walked back into the house
I parked my car and got out grabbing my suitcase and my duffel bag
“The fuck did you pack for?” Matt said looking over his shoulder
“A fucking road trip are you an idiot?” I said placing my duffel bag on my suitcase
“You’re acting like you’re moving or some shit” he said laughing
“I like to have options since I actually have a sense of style unlike you, so buzz off” I said rolling my eyes at him
“Packed for a fucking runway show or some shit” he said
I pushed him out the way to look at the trunk
“Matt what the fuck is this?” I said looking at him
“Uhh looks like suitcases and bags to me” he said shrugging his shoulder
“No shit smart ass. You packed this car horribly. Let me fix it” I said
“Knock yourself out” he said
I had removed some suitcases and bags, and I got to a larger bag in the back of the trunk. Sliding it forward
“Okay princess hold this” I said looking over at Matt
“Fuck you….calling me princess” he said rolling his eyes
“Well you watched me undo all this without offering a hand, so yes you are a princess, now hold this please” I said trying to give him the heavy duffel bag
“No im good” he said smiling at me and crossing his arms over his chest
I looked at him blinking, and I lifted the bag up, throwing it over my shoulders, and letting it crash to the concrete pavement.
“Suit yourself then” I said shrugging my shoulders
“ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY” Matt yelled leaning off of the car and walking over to the bag
“Aww it must’ve slipped” I said grabbing my duffel bag off of my suitcase, and rolling my suitcase
“You’re a bitch” he said opening the bag that I’m assuming was his and looking inside of it
I rolled my suitcase past him and lifted my duffel bag up to put it over my shoulder letting it hit Matt in the head.
“So I’ve been told” I said laughing at him
“This has filming equipment in it, my equipment to be exact. You’re lucky it didn’t break” he said standing up
“I’m actually pretty sad it didn’t break” I said frowning
Matt scoffed at me and walked into the house. Leaving me alone to finish packing the trunk up correctly. Soon they all came back out, and got ready to get in the car
Matt shoved past me to get in on the drivers side. I lost my footing and gave him a dirty look
“I hate you” I said to him
“Feelings mutual don’t worry” he said smiling at me
“Can you guys just not fight for once. I have not spent a single day with you guys in two years where there was no fighting going on” Nick said
“I try my best, but he really knows how to get under my skin” I said
“Tell me about it, but please I can’t handle a road trip with Matt in a pissg mood” Chris said
“Okay okay I’ll be nice” I said throwing my hands up in defense
Chris sat in the passenger seat, I sat behind Matt and Nick sat behind Chris. It was a pretty decent car ride for the most part. We were driving north at first.
Occasionally I’d look into the rear view mirror sometimes catching Matt’s eyes. But always looking away. But we kept locking eyes accidentally
“Stop looking at me like a creep” Matt said
“I’m not trying to look at you. Everytime I look up you happen to also be looking” I said getting annoyed
“Uhh yeah it’s the rear view mirror, I have to see what’s happening behind me on the road” he said shaking his head
“Literally shut up before I lose it” I said sighing
“Whatever..” he said rolling his eyes at me
We had been through three states already. We fought the whole time driving, we fought at every stop, we fought for every meal. Chris and Nick were growing frustrated. I think Matt and I didn’t even enjoy our stay in these states because we spent the whole time arguing.
In these three states Chris and Nick forced us to stay in a hotel room together. This was the worst idea in the world because this made us fight more.
The first hotel we stood in, Matt kept turning the light on every five minutes to piss me off, and then he talked the whole night. The second hotel we stayed at, Matt threw ice cold water on me the morning we were heading out while I was showering. The third state we got to there was only one sink, and Matt and I woke up late, so we were rushing. First he took an extra long shower using the hot water, so my shower was cold. Then we had to brush our teeth at the same time.
I leaned over to spit into the sink when suddenly I felt Matt hovering over me. He spat his toothpaste in my hair. My jaw dropped and I let a gasp out
“You did not” I said looking up at him
“Whoops must’ve slipped” he said shrugging his shoulders
I had no time to wash my hair so I had to wipe my hair with a wet towel, and hope for the best. I shoved past Matt packing my stuff up, and ignoring him as I made my way down to the lobby.
This incident was the icing on the cake. I was so angry. I wasn’t the nicest to Matt, but spitting toothpaste in my hair was a low fucking blow.
As we got in the car and headed to get breakfast Chris opened his mouth
“It smells like toothpaste” he said laughing
“Yeah thank your idiot brother” I said with a straight face
“What’d he do?” Chris asked turning back to look at me
“He fucking spat toothpaste in my hair, and I had no time to shampoo it out” I said rolling my neck
“Matt what the fuck” Nick said getting annoyed
“It was an accident” he said pouting
“To hell with you you fucking asshole” I said loudly
“You can throw my bag and hit me in the head, but this was too much?” He said laughing
“Toothpaste from your mouth? Yeah you crossed a line you stupid fuck” I said putting my hand in between the space of the head rest and the chair, and pulled his little neck hairs
“OUCH WHAT THE FUCK” he screamed grabbing the back of his neck
“Awww it was an accident” I said pouting at him
“Bringing you with us was the biggest mistake” he said
“Yeah I think so too” I said crossing my arms over my shoulders
The whole ride went like that. Every restaurant we stopped at and every gas station. Chris and Nick even snapped at us a few times because we were stressing them out.
We stayed at a hotel in the fourth state, and I was hoping us arguing all day would make Nick split us up, but I thought wrong.
“You and Matt are staying together, and Chris and I are keeping your room keys, so if you leave…you’re shit out of luck we’re not helping you” Nick said shrugging his shoulders
“WHAT” we both screeched out
“This arguing is so fucking annoying. We are supposed to be having a good time, and instead we’re miserable. Yall need to talk out your issues because I can’t do this anymore” Nick said to us
“Yeah like I’m exhausted and annoyed with you both bickering like children. I wanted this month break to be nice and fun, but it’s not…please figure this shit out” Chris said rubbing his eyes
We both nodded our heads in defeat, and Nick unlocked our door letting us in, and watching as the door shut in his face.
We locked the door and turned the lights on. Our jaws dropped at the site. One fucking bed….
“They’re fucking with us, they have to be” Matt said scoffing
“Yeah no shit dumbass…they want us to be as uncomfortable as possible, and talk about our issues” I said placing my duffel bag down
“Okay fucking mystery P.I” Matt said laughing
“I’m going to shower and get this toothpaste out of my hair, so behave for like 30 minutes” I said to him
I got in the shower and enjoyed my alone time. It was so peaceful to be alone with your thoughts. I mean I hated fighting with Matt all the time. I wasn’t even sure why I fought with him all the time. It’s just everytime I would see his face it made me so angry. If it wasn’t for his shitty attitude Matt was actually an attractive guy. Beautiful on the outside and ugly on the inside. At least from what I saw….
I ignored Matt as I finished my routine and he went to shower. I laid in the bed after drying my hair and just stared at the ceiling. All that I could see was flashes of Matt’s face. It made me angry. The one person I hate the most and that’s all my brain is clouded with.
Matt got out of the shower and sat on the edge of the bed scrolling on his phone. I was staring into the back of his head just thinking. Mainly mean things, but one other thing….his hair looked so good right now. WHAT THE FUCK NO!
It was 2AM at this point, and Matt shut the main light off keeping the lamp on. I grabbed a pillow and a blanket it laid on the floor
“What are you doing” he said looking at me
“Throwing a party…Matt I’m going to sleep” I said rolling my eyes at him
“Yeah, but why on the floor” he said laughing
“Because I’m not sleeping next to you” I said scoffing
“You act like I bite” he said giving me a dirty look
“You might as well with those teeth of yours, so damn big” I said laughing
Matt let out a giggle and looked away. Did I just make him laugh? My eyebrow raised as I looked at him
“Just get in the bed” he said looking at me
“I’m good” I said laying down and turning away from him
Matt scoffed and shut the light off. My mind started racing. His little laugh was so cute, and the way he looked down at me to lay in the bed with him….idk why I started to smile this was weird.
“This feels wrong” Matt saddened blurted out making my heart jump from being scared
“What” I said confused
“You sleeping on the floor like just get up, and sleep next to me” he said
“No” I said
“Stop being so stubborn already” he said smacking his hands down on the bed sheets
“Fine okay” I said getting up
I made my way over to the bed and laid down. Matt was facing me as I looked up at the ceiling. My breathing became shallow as I felt his eyes on me.
“Please stop looking at me” I said in a whisper
“Sorry” he said back
I let a slight smile fall on my face, and I guess he saw it with the little bit of moonlight coming in through the window
“You look very pretty when you smile, you should do it more often” he said
“Well stop pissing me off everyday and I’d have more to smile about” I said
“Are you flirting with me?” He asked laughing
“In your dreams Matthew” I said laughing lightly
“Oh in my dreams indeed” he said
“You’re such a strange person” I said rubbing my eyes
“Is that why you hate me?” He asked
“I don’t hate you. I hate the way you act. You know how to make me angry” I replied
“I mean I don’t mean to be that way, but to see how easily you get upset it makes me smile” he said laughing a bit
“I’m glad my anger brings you joy” I said shaking my head
“It’s cute” he responded
“I must be mistaken…is Matt flirting with me?” I asked
“Oh no I would never” he said laying on his back now
“Right right” I said shrugging my shoulders
The room got silent…painfully silent. I’m sure you could hear my heart beating out of my chest. My breathing became heavier. Why was there such weird tension now?
I mindlessly started to lightly hum a song trying to coo myself to sleep?? I don’t know..
“What’s that? I’ve heard you hum that song before” Matt said
“Oh it’s Back to the Old House by The Smiths” I said
“I’ve been trying to figure out that song for the longest every time you hum it” he said in a whisper
“Oh yeah” I said also in a whisper
Matt’s hand came down near mine, and I felt his pinky graze against my skin. My breathing hitched in my throat as I glanced down at his movement.
“I love The Smiths” I said in a low whisper
“What was that?” He asked his pinky now completely rubbing up and down my hand
“I said… I love The Smiths” I responded looking over at him. To see him already looking back.
Suddenly Matt’s lips crashed into mine. Throwing me for a fucking loop because what the fuck was this?
But my lips moved with his as he leaned up and over. Slowly making his way to hover above me. My hands immediately rubbing through his hair
Our lips locked in such a heated and passionate kiss. Who would’ve thought I needed a kiss from Matt so badly. My body ached for him, and I slowly hated that. I was supposed to hate him what's going on…
“Wait wait wait” I said pushing Matt back
“What’s wrong?” He asked looking at me
“I mean nothings wrong. It’s just….we’re supposed to hate each other” I said
“Who says enemies can’t kiss?” He asked
“Fuck it” I said pulling him back down for another heated make out session.
Matt’s dick slowly pressed against my cunt as my legs stayed spread for him. My heart fluttered at the feeling as I pulled Matt down more to allow our chests to touch.
Matt began to kiss down my neck as my nails scratched his scalp. This was so wrong yet felt so right. I had complete control in my hands. And I wanted this to go further than some kissing. I so desperately wanted Matt right now.
“I don’t want you to feel forced to do anything” Matt said looking at me as he kissed up my neck
“Trust me if I felt forced I would’ve kneed you in the balls” I said, and he laughed against my skin causing me to get goosebumps
Matt and I continued to kiss until his hands ran up my shirt and slowly began to take it off. Lifting off the bed for him to get it off my head
He pulled away and removed his shirt as well. Leaning back down as our bare chests touched causing me to let out a whimper
He kissed down my neck and down my chest as he left open mouth kisses on my breasts. He kissed down my stomach and to where my pajama bottoms sat
He came back up running his right hand over my breasts as he kissed my neck.
“I need more” I moaned out
“Okay” he said in a whisper
Matt pulled away and helped me slide out of my pajama bottoms. He slowly slid his pants off.
He ran his hands over my cloth pussy as I shuddered. He removed his boxers and slid my underwear to the side. Slowly he slid into me allowing myself to adjust to the burn from the stretch.
God Matt felt so good. I was already in heaven and he hasn’t even fucked me yet.
“Are you ready?” He asked me as he bottomed out
“Yes” I panted out as my back arched
“I’m going to go slow okay” he said
“Okay Matt” I said licking my dry lips
Matt began to thrust in and out of me at a slow pace. Truly allowing me to feel all of him. My hands gripped the sheets beneath me as my toes curled.
Matt was filling me up so well. I swore my eyes were in the back of my head. His thrusts slow but deep and harder really stretching me out
“You can go faster” I moaned out
Matt leaned forward and brought my left leg to wrap around his torso as he began to pound into me.
“Fuck Y/N, you feel amazing” he panted out into my ear
His necklace tapping against my collar bone with every thrust. As my hands began to rake up and down his back
“Shit Matt….holy fuck just like that” I moaned out
His hips snapping into me at a faster pace. The bed creaked and lightly tapped against the wall. We really hoped Nick and Chris were asleep because this would make for a awkward experience tomorrow
“You’re taking me so well. I thought you hated me” he moaned out
Pounding into me deeper causing a loud whine to escape my lips
“I might’ve hated you before, but you’re fucking me so good I might fall in love” I moaned out throwing my head back
“Love so soon?” He moaned out as he hit my g spot
“Eventually” I panted out
“Yeah I want to fuck you a few more times before you decide on that” he said as his thrusts became sloppy
“I’d like that very much” I moaned out
“I know you would, fuck” he moaned out
My mouth hung open as his lips ghosted against them. My brows furrowed as I began my orgasm slowly approaching.
My heel of my foot for a fact digging into his back as my body quivered and shook for him
“Matt I’m so close” I moaned out as my hips lifted off the bed
“Hold on baby hold on” he said
Snaking his hand in between us he began to rub my clit causing me to let out a high pitch whine.
He began to run faster as my breathing got heavier. My mouth fell slack as his hips smacked into me.
My stomach coiling and my thighs shaking
“Fuckkkk I’m cumming” I moaned out as my legs began to shake and my back lifted off of the mattress. Clenching around Matt as his name fell from my lips in a loud moan.
He helped me ride out my high and slowly pulled out of me as I laid there. He began to stroke his dick chasing his own high
His breathing became heavy as his lower stomach contracted and he painted my thighs with his cum. His mouth slack and eyes staring down at me as he moaned out my name.
Once he came down from his high he helped clean us up. And he got back in bed. It got quiet again and my thoughts started racing
“I don’t hate you. I never did” Matt suddenly blurted out
“Oh” was all I could say
“Watching you get mad over small things made me laugh, and I felt like it was our own little way of flirting” he said
“I mean at times it was” I said looking at him
“And other times I went over the line” he said shaking his head
“Yeah you did, but that’s okay. Look where it landed us fucking in a hotel room” I said laughing
“I suppose that’s true” he said laughing
“It’s just easier to dislike someone than to actually like them, and I’m so mad I can’t hate you” I replied
“Oh the feelings mutual babe” he said licking his bottom lip
I laughed and shoved his shoulder
Matt pulled me in, and we eventually fell asleep in each other's arms after having much needed conversations.
The next morning when we woke up. We showered and packed up. It wasn’t even awkward and we actually enjoyed our morning together. We even walked down to the lobby together which never happened.
“You guys seem happy” Chris said
“Did you hash things out?” Nick asked
“We did, and it was all one big misunderstanding” Matt said looking at them
“Yeah it was. However the one bed was a dick move” I said looking at Nick
“Oh one bed? That’s so weird I didn’t even know that” he said
“You didn’t?” We both said
“No, it must’ve been an accident” he said shrugging his shoulders
“Well I’m glad it worked out that way anyways” I said shrugging my shoulders
“Yeah! Plus it seemed to work you guys are getting along great” Nick said
“Oh yeah you know. Just a good ol conversation to make it all better” Matt said
“I’m so glad you guys are okay now” Chris said getting excited
“We are too! So now let’s actually go have some fun like we’ve been planning to!” I said loudly
We finished our road trip, and I was so thankful for Nick and Chris putting us together. Who would’ve known how badly I needed Matt, and I finally got him. It only took two years…
The End
Mannnn idk how I feel about this, but also I was like half awake writing this it’s bad LMAOOO. I hope you guys enjoyed and I love yall dearly🥹🖤🖤

Caught Up in Your Trap

Summary: You spend your first day in your new home. Part of the Trapped AU.
Warnings: Dark elements, kidnapping, human trafficking, drugging, training, punishment, isolation, injury, forced intimacy - Just trust me when I say that this is dark. All of my work is 18+ - Minors DNI

A/N: Oh my god, you guys. Uh, happy sin day, I guess?? 🤣 Because I am apparently incapable of just leaving a one-shot alone, this is a prequel to I Don't Want a Lot for Christmas spurred by some unhinged 4 AM thots. It is definitely the darkest thing I've written so far. Whoops.
Big thanks as always to @paperweight91 who was not only the fantastic sounding board she always is, and let me ramble on about all my research into furnaces of all things but also helped me figure out the title for both this fic and the greater AU it's now a part of (🤦🏻‍♀️ Seriously, Kris, just stop!). Hat tip to Bruce Springsteen for both, as well. I'm sure he'd be thrilled. 😂
Any comment, reblog, or ask to let me know what you think will be greatly appreciated. Even if it's just screeching at me. As always, thank you so much for reading! 💜
Tumblr media
Andy pulled up at the address he’d been given, more surprised than he should have been that it was an abandoned warehouse. Of course, this sort of deal would be completed there. He should have known from the sorts of channels he’d had to go through to set it up. Connections left over from his days in the DA’s office. Well, that wasn’t the side of the law he was on anymore. 
He walked into the large open space that made up most of the building to find a man standing in the middle of a few folding chairs. He had a neatly trimmed mustache and was wearing sharp but tight clothing. He wasn’t who caught Andy’s attention, though. No, that was you, slumped over in one of the chairs, wearing the clothes you must have been taken in. Even like this, he could tell your pictures hadn’t done you justice. You were absolutely perfect. Or you would be, once he was done.
“Barber!” the man called out, a satisfied smirk raising his mustache. “How nice of you to join us!”
“Hansen,” Andy answered evenly. He nodded at you, “She ok?”
“Oh, she’s fine. Just on enough horse tranqs to move her across the country without her realizing it. She’ll only be out for another day or so.”
Andy walked over to you. “I’m sure you don’t mind if I check for myself. With the amount of money I’m paying you.” Hansen gestured for him to go ahead, so he placed a gentle hand on the pulse in your neck, pleased to feel that it was strong and steady. He took a step back and opened the untraceable banking app on his phone. He clicked the transfer button, moving an ungodly amount of money from his numbered account in the Caymans to the account Lloyd had given him. “Alright,” he said, “the money’s in your account.”
The other man snapped his fingers and someone appeared out of the shadows, holding a tablet. “And I’m sure you don’t mind,” Hansen said as the new man tapped his screen, “if I check for myself. With the amount of work I’ve done for you.”
They all waited in tense silence for the confirmation of the transfer to come through. Andy couldn’t take his eyes off you, eager to finally get you home. After everything he’d been through, this was what he deserved. The perfect wife, the perfect family, the perfect life. And he was going to do it right this time, taking full control until he had exactly what he wanted. Nothing left to chance. It was costing him a pretty penny, but it was worth it.
The man with the tablet nodded at Hansen, who clapped his hands together. “Alright!” he said. “Let’s get this done. My men will get her settled in your car while we finish up.” Two more men came out from the edge of the room and started to put their hands on you. Andy couldn’t help the growl that came out of him. Hansen laughed. “Don’t worry, Mr. ADA, they won’t hurt your precious new wife. You have my word.” 
Andy gave a hesitant nod, as they carried you out of the warehouse, clicking the unlock button on his car fob so that they could get you settled. He didn’t take his eyes off you until you were gone.
Hansen reached down and picked up a thick folder. “Everything you’ll need is in here. Everything for her new identity, all in order, all immaculate. Marriage license. Anything from her old life you might need. Although I’d get what you need from those quickly and then burn them.” 
Andy took the folder and briefly paged through it. New birth certificate, social security card, IDs, passport. Everything he’d need to start your new life. He put the folder in his briefcase. “Thank you. Anything else?”
Hansen smirked again. “Eager to get started?” He leered in the direction you’d disappeared. “Can’t say I blame you.”
Andy cleared his throat, not appreciating the way Hansen was talking about what was his. “Yes, I would like to get us both home. Are we done here?”
“Sure sure. You have a good time now,” he smirked.
Andy gave him a curt nod and then exited in the direction Hansen’s men had taken you. There was no sign of them by his car, but you were laid out across the backseat. He opened the door and leaned in to brush a gentle finger across your cheek. He wouldn’t be able to relax until you were secured inside his home. It was so close now.
Tumblr media
This wasn’t your room. You’d woken up some time ago (you couldn’t say how long ago exactly. There were no clocks, no windows) in the most comfortable bed you’d ever felt. You thought it might swallow you up, it was so soft. Luxurious. The whole room was that way. Beautiful. Rich. You were dressed in a satin nightgown that wasn’t at all like anything you owned. You tried very hard not to think about the fact that someone must have changed you. The door was locked from the outside, a small keypad right under the doorknob. You tried banging on the door. Yelling for someone. Nothing. A quick exploration of the room hadn’t yielded anything either – the two other doors were also locked, a dresser held only men’s clothing. So you’d spent the last who knows how long just laying in the bed, trying not to panic or cry. You weren’t very successful at either.
The most disturbing thing you’d discovered since you’d woken up here was the set of rings on your left hand. One featured a large diamond, the other was a simpler band filled with comparatively tiny diamonds. The bands were fused together like you remembered your mom’s engagement and wedding rings being. It took a long time to normalize your breathing after that discovery.
Just as you were about to drift asleep again, for want of anything else to do, you heard a few soft beeps, the lock click, and the doorknob move. You leaped up and huddled in the far corner of the room between the wall and the bed, holding a pillow in front of you. There was nothing else in the room to use to defend yourself. Even the lamps were bolted down – you’d checked. 
The door slowly opened and a man walked in. He was tall, over 6 feet, and broad. He had dark, soft-looking hair, and a well-kept beard. He wore a gray cotton tee and jeans. If your adrenaline hadn’t been spiking, you would have found him so handsome. But as it was, you pushed yourself further into the corner.
He was carrying a tray, which he set down on one of the nightstands. From your vantage point, you could see a glass of water and a bowl. You weren’t feeling inclined to take anything from this man.
Your eyes cautiously tracked him as he came around to the foot of the bed. “How are you feeling?” he asked, his voice deep but gentle.
You didn’t say anything, just kept watching him. He leveled you with a stern look that sent a chill down your spine. His voice was much more rigid when he said, “I expect an answer when I ask a question, sweetheart.” 
You ignored him again, instead asking, “Who are you?”
He took a deep breath, flexing both hands. Extreme irritation passed over his face before it was replaced with a practiced calm. He sat at the foot of the bed and patted the space next to him. “Come sit,” he said. You didn’t move. “Now,” he growled. Something in his tone made it clear, not only that he would move you himself if he had to, but even more so, that you didn’t want it to come to that. You got up and sat on the far edge of the bed. He reached over and grabbed your arm hard, dragging you into his side. You cried out but he shushed you. “Alright,” he said, “I will answer your question once you answer mine. How are you feeling?”
This was the most scared you’d ever been. You had to take a few deep breaths before you were able to say. “I have a headache and I’m a little nauseous. And I’m very scared.”
He gently took your hand in his and cooed at you. “That’d be the drugs they used to knock you out. You’ll feel better when they’re completely out of your system. Eating will help. You can have some soup once we’re done talking.” He paused, for what you didn’t know. You didn’t say anything. He smiled. “You can ask your question now. Good girl waiting for permission.” 
Your head swung to look at him. That hadn’t been what you were doing. Had it? You were woozy and scared and just trying to figure out what the fuck was going on. That was most important, so you let his comment go and repeated your question. “Who are you?”
He squeezed your hand. “I’m your husband, sweetheart. My name is Andy.”
That was the answer you’d been terrified of since you’d seen the rings on your finger. He was fucking crazy. He had to be. The best you could do right now was to get as much information out of him as you could. “And where are we? Is this your house?” You were trying to keep your voice steady, but you could hear the tremor in it.
“This is our house, sweetheart. Just outside Boston.”
Your eyes widened and your heart rate picked up in panic. “Boston?? No– That’s– How did I get here?!” This was even worse than you thought. You were nowhere near home, nowhere near anything familiar.
He just looked at you for a moment with narrowed eyes. Then he nodded and said, “Ok, I’m going to be honest and explain it to you, because I think it will help you understand your place here. But in the future, you need to know that I don’t appreciate having to explain myself. Good wives don’t question their husband's actions. Now, since I’m going out of my way to make this clear for you, I expect you to sit quietly and listen. Can you do that for me?”
You clenched your hands into fists, wanting to rage at him for how he was speaking to you like a child, but you knew you needed this information. You needed everything you could get if you were going to get out of here, so you tried to control your breathing and nodded.
He looked at you like he wanted to scold you for something, but then visibly changed his mind and began. “I’ve had a hard life, the last few years especially, I’ve been through a lot. Things haven’t turned out the way they were supposed to. I wanted a family. I thought I had one, but– It wasn’t how it was supposed to be, and then I lost even that. I wanted to try again, but I couldn’t put in all that effort without a guarantee that I wouldn’t wind up with nothing again.
“I’m a lawyer. I used to work as an ADA and now I’m in defense. In both jobs, I’ve made a lot of connections with people from different walks of life. Through that, I found a man who provides a service – if you let him know what you’re looking for, he’ll find you a person who fills those needs. So I told him that I was looking for someone to build a family with, a good wife. He presented me with a few options, and I chose you. For a hefty price, his men picked you up and brought you here. They also put together all new paperwork for you, a whole new identity. The old you doesn’t exist anymore, do you understand? You’re Mrs. Barber now, property of your husband. I bought and paid for you. I own you, every part of you.”
You saw his hand start to move toward your thigh and you jumped up, quickly pressing yourself against the wall. You just stared at him for a moment and then the panic truly hit you, but this time, it was accompanied by blinding anger. “That’s human trafficking, you complete fucking psycho! The fuck is wrong with you?!” Once you’d started screaming, you couldn’t stop. “You can’t just buy a wife, you fucking cuck! I’m a person! People are going to look for me!” He stood up and came at you and you swung out with your fists, your nails, your knees, whatever you fucking could. You connected a few times, drew a grunt from him before he somehow pinned your wrists behind your back. You screamed as loud as you could, but it did nothing. 
He frog-marched you out of the room as he said, “I was hoping we wouldn’t have to do this so soon, but you need a timeout, honey. Some time to calm down in the quiet room, and then we can try again and go over the rules. You just need some time to think by yourself.”
You tried to pay attention as he pushed you through what looked like a little apartment: a living room, a kitchenette. He stopped at an innocuous-looking door with a keypad on it, just like the one in the bedroom. He turned you away so you couldn’t see as he entered the code, one hand still keeping your wrists in a bruising grip. Before you’d even realized he’d opened the door, he was shoving you into the room so hard you briefly left the ground. The door slammed shut behind you. You hit the floor hard and groaned. You stumbled up onto your hands and knees. You heard another beep, then the grinding of a lock. Then nothing.
The room was pitch black. You weren’t even sure where the door was now, as there wasn’t any light coming through the cracks. You crawled around, trying to get an idea of the space. It was small and empty as far as you could tell. But there was a low rumbling noise that seemed to fill the room. You couldn’t pinpoint the source just from listening, it felt like it was coming from everywhere. The floor under your hands was bare, concrete. Your hands brushed through cobwebs and other detritus you couldn’t see. You cautiously held a hand out as you continued to try to map out the room, terrified you’d smack your face right into the wall. It made contact with something hot and sharp. You pulled it back with a hiss, pain radiating through your palm. You felt the first few wet drops. Shit. You were bleeding. You’d cut yourself. Fuck. “Hey!” you called out as loud as you could. There was no answer. “Hey!” you tried again, “I’m hurt! I’m bleeding!” No response. “WHAT THE FUCK?” You were screaming now. “YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE! LET ME OUT!” Nothing. God, this room was already lightproof, maybe it was soundproof, too. He wouldn’t be able to hear you, wouldn’t know you were hurt. You couldn’t tell how badly you’d cut your hand so you raised it above your head, hoping that might at least slow down the bleeding. It was dirty you were sure. God, how long did it take for cuts to get infected? You hoped you wouldn’t find out. You didn’t even know what you’d cut it on. What if it was rusty? Shit, when was your last tetanus booster? You couldn’t remember exactly. Fuck. You really didn’t want to die from tetanus in some random basement in Massachusetts. A tear rolled down your cheek. He couldn’t leave you in here too long, could he? No. He would come get you soon.
Tumblr media
You had no idea how long you’d been sitting in the dark, your knees pulled up to your chest, one arm wrapped around them, the other still held in the air. Your shoulder was so sore, but you were too worried to lower your hand. You wished you could see the cut, know exactly how bad it was. You wished you knew how much time had passed. With no frame of reference, no external indicators, you were afraid you’d lost the ability to tell the difference between hours and minutes. It’d been hours. It had to have been hours. How long was he going to leave you here? He had to come back soon. He had to. You took some perverse comfort in the fact that he’d spent a lot of money on you. That had to mean that he wouldn’t just leave you here. He’d want a return on his investment. You tried to ignore the chills that thought gave you.
You’d been crying on and off. It made you feel pathetic but what else were you supposed to do? The panic, too, ebbed and flowed. You’d been trying to keep your breathing even, trying to ignore how small the space was, how dirty, how dark. Deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth. It wasn’t doing much to calm you, but at least it gave you something to focus on. 
Just as a fresh wave of tears overtook you, a blinding light came in, directly opposite you. You squinted and raised your uninjured hand in front of your eyes, but that didn’t do much to help.
“Oh sweetheart,” Andy’s voice cooed, before gently lifting you by your arms and herding you out. He half-carried you through the finished part of the basement while your eyes continued to adjust. Before you knew it, you were back in the bedroom you’d started in. He gently sat you down on the edge of the bed and crouched in front of you. You felt dazed. The room was too bright. You didn’t know how you could keep breaking the record for the most scared you’d ever been. There had to be a ceiling, a limit. You’d hit it soon, wouldn’t you? 
You still had your hand raised and cradled to your chest. Andy touched your wrist and you flinched. He raised an eyebrow in question and you whispered, “I got hurt.” He sighed and gently tugged at your wrist again. This time you let him guide your arm down, moving your hand so you both could see it. It was a little grimy and definitely red, slightly swollen maybe. There was a little dried blood, but not much. The cut was so much more shallow than you’d imagined when you were trapped in that room alone. You felt incredibly foolish. You’d thought you were going to lose your hand over a glorified paper cut. 
Andy carefully moved his thumb over a raised patch under the cut that you now realized was a minor burn. “Did you touch the furnace?” The furnace – that’s what’d been making that noise. That’s what you’d cut yourself on. That’s where he’d thrown you. What the fuck? You were lucky you hadn’t hurt yourself even worse. You looked up from your hand to see him frowning at you. “Why would you do that? Sweetheart, you have to be more careful. That was a very stupid thing to do.” He got up and walked into the ensuite, opening a cabinet under the sink.
Was he seriously scolding you for getting hurt in a dangerous room he’d locked you in?? The rage from earlier was starting to return, but it was still tempered by your fear. You did your best to keep your voice even when you replied, “It was completely dark in there. I couldn’t see anything.” A little growl came through your words, but it wasn’t anything compared to what you were actually feeling.
He came back holding a small first-aid kit. “Well then that’s a good reason to keep your hands to yourself, isn’t it?” He sat down and opened the kit, pulling out a few wipes and beginning to somewhat roughly clean your hand. “Sweetheart, I’m here to take care of you. That’s my job as your husband. But I need you to be a good girl and not put yourself in harm’s way.”
“You threw me in there!” you said, your voice starting to get louder, despite your best efforts to keep calm.
“Because you were bad and needed a time-out!” he yelled back at you. He threw the dirty wipes into the trashcan beside the bed and took a deep breath, visibly calming himself. He grabbed an ointment from the kit and began applying it to your hand. “That’s why we’re going to talk about rules now. They’re there to keep you safe and both of us happy. When you don’t follow them, something like this can happen.”
You didn’t say anything. You had to be smart if you were ever going to get out of here and antagonizing him wasn’t smart. He didn’t seem to expect a response anyway as he just silently placed a bandage on your hand and then got up and put the kit away. He came back and sat right next to you, turning so he could look into your eyes. You tried to turn your head away, but he grabbed your chin and forced eye contact. 
“Alright,” he said, his tone already so fucking patronizing. “A good thing that came out of your little tantrum is that now we know the areas we need to focus on most for improvement – manners, respect, and attitude. I did some thinking during your quiet time too, and I’ve adjusted your training schedule to focus on these things. It’ll be good for both of us.”
What the actual fucking fuck? “Training schedule?” was all you managed to get out.
Andy nodded. “I’m sure you’ve figured out that we’re in the basement right now. I have a beautiful big house upstairs that I can’t wait to show you. But you’re going to have to earn it first, prove to me that you know how to be good, that I can trust you before we can go upstairs. That’s what the training will do. I’m going to teach you exactly how to be perfect for me, everything I want, and in return I’m going to give you a perfect life, so much better than what you had before. We’re going to be so happy together, sweetheart. I promise.
“Now, it’s going to take time. I understand that. And I’m going to be patient with you. I know what your life was like before. I know that you probably never expected that you’d ever get to have this. Change can be scary. Dreams coming true, it’s scary. But I’ll be here to guide you through it all. I’m going to give you everything and all I ask of you in return is that you be good for me. That’s all.”
You wanted to scream. You wanted to sob. What the hell was this? How could this man, this stranger, be so completely deranged? Be smart, you chanted to yourself. Be smart be smart be smart. And if you opened your mouth now, you knew exactly what would come out. So you kept it shut and let him continue.  
“So first, let’s talk about your tantrum. I don’t appreciate being spoken to that way. The language and the names, it’s unacceptable. So, no swearing going forward. And I think a good rule for you while we’re downstairs will be for you to address me as Sir. Once we’ve moved upstairs, you’ll be allowed to call me Andy, but whenever we’re down here, it’s Sir. Do you understand?” He looked at you expectantly. You clenched your jaw and nodded. “I expect a verbal response when I speak to you, sweetheart.”
“Yes,” you gritted out. He raised an eyebrow at you and his gaze hardened. It took you a moment to realize your mistake. “Yes, sir,” you corrected yourself.
“Very good. As your husband, I expect you to give me the respect I deserve. That’s something we’ll work on. It’s very important that you don’t question me. I know what’s best for you and you need to trust that I will give you whatever information you need to have. If I haven’t told you something, it’s because you don’t need to know, ok?”
He paused again. What kind of Stepford hell was this? What had you done to deserve this? You took a deep breath. Then another. And another. Then, finally, you were able to force out a “Yes, sir.”
He smiled. “You’re so smart, sweetheart. You’ll be upstairs in no time. Now, you’ll start learning your routine tomorrow. I’ve taken some time off work for our honeymoon, so I’ll have plenty of time to get you settled and acclimated. We’ll go over wardrobe and makeup requirements in the morning too. Now,” he slapped his thighs and stood up, “your soup from earlier went cold, so how about I go get you a fresh bowl while you take a quick shower and get all that dust and grime from the Quiet Room off you?”
You held back a grimace at him calling that room that, as he walked over to one of the other doors and unlocked it. He talked to you like you were a child. All of this was so fucked up. But a shower sounded incredible. You had no idea how long it’d been since you’d had one. So you just nodded and let out a quiet, “Yes, sir.”
He beamed at you. “Everything you’ll need is in the bathroom. I’ll be back in just a few minutes.”
You stood and waited til he was out the door, listening to the beeps and grinding locks once he was gone. Shit. You were really fucked. You went into the bathroom and closed the door behind you. There was no lock on the inside. Of course, there wasn’t. 
You didn’t waste much time in the bathroom, desperate for a hot shower. You vaguely registered that the counter was stocked with all sorts of beauty aids – expensive lotions and serums like he’d bought out a department store beauty counter. The shower too, was equally well stocked. So much fancier than the Target sale items you usually stocked your bathroom with. But the shower felt incredible and that’s what you chose to focus on. 
When you were finished, you came out of the shower to see that the bathroom door was open. You could hear Andy moving around in the bedroom. You shuddered and quickly wrapped a plush towel around yourself. There was a fresh nightgown waiting for you, soft pink, all silk and lace. You grimaced and wondered what you’d need to do to get a pair of sleep shorts and an old T-shirt to sleep in. Probably more than you were willing to do, if it was even possible. You dried off quickly and slipped the nightgown on. 
When you exited the bathroom, he was sitting on the bed, the tray of food sitting next to him. There was a bowl of soup and a cup of water, along with a small plate with a few crackers. The dishes and utensils were all plastic. Nothing you could hurt him with. You sat down and watched him carefully as you lifted the tray onto your lap. He didn’t say anything so it must have been allowed. Your hand shook as you brought the first spoonful up to your lips. The soup was warm, not hot, certainly not scalding. Another hope dashed. Throwing it at him would only result in him getting wet. And angry. Not worth it. 
As you ate, you realized just how hungry you actually were. The nausea from whatever drugs you’d had had covered it up, but you were starving. You barely even tasted the soup, you just needed to eat. God, how long had it been since you’d had food? You wouldn’t bother asking Andy. You knew he wouldn’t give you an answer.
After he watched you eat for a few minutes, he said, “What do you say, sweetheart?”
God, he used that word like it was your name. It made you want to scream. You swallowed down all your anger and a spoonful of soup before you said, “Thank you, sir.” 
He gave you a satisfied smile. “See,” he said, “I knew you had good manners.”
You shoved the spoon into your mouth to prevent any sort of comeback. This fucking asshole. Luckily he let you eat the rest of your meal in peace. But he never took his eyes off you.
Tumblr media
Once you were done, Andy put the tray on the dresser and then declared it bedtime. You watched him cautiously, as he went to the dresser and took out a pair of boxers and a cotton tee. He changed right in the middle of the room and you turned your head away. You caught flashes of skin, that if he’d been anyone else, in any other circumstances, would have had you drooling. It was becoming hard to breathe again. What else would he demand from you tonight?
You chanced a glance back up at him to find him changed and staring at you. You swallowed nervously. “Come here,” he said firmly, holding his hand out to you. You slowly, so slowly, made your way to him. As soon as you were in reach, he grabbed your elbow and pulled you the rest of the way in so that you were nestled into his chest. “I know,” he said, stroking one hand down your back, “that we’re both thinking about our first time together, but I’d like to wait.” He ran the fingers of his other hand down the strap of your nightgown, slipping onto your bare skin. “Give you a chance to get fully adjusted. Give us both a chance to get to know each other.” His voice slipped down an octave as his fingers traveled across your chest. Your body bowed to get away from him, but he didn’t seem to notice or care. “Give us a chance to enjoy each other.” His breath hitched as his hand traveled down to your breast, the other hand on your back had stilled, holding you close, stopping you from getting away. He moved his head as close as he could to yours and whispered, “I want it to be special.” Then, before you could try to back away, he was kissing you. It was firm and demanding, giving you no option but to let it happen. He angled his growing erection into your thigh, and with the way he was holding you, you couldn’t lean away from it. His tongue forced its way into your mouth and you couldn’t help the way you whimpered. It felt like it might go on forever, when he finally pulled back, resting his forehead against yours. “I’m so happy you’re mine,” he whispered. 
And then he was out of your space, leaving you trying to breathe again, alone in the middle of the room, as he climbed into the bed. You just stood there, unsure of what to do, your lips still tingling. Once he was settled on the side of the bed closest to the door, he called your name. “Come to bed now,” he said, and there was no mistaking it for anything other than an order. You ducked your head and climbed onto the bed, terrified of what might come next, but also desperate for sleep. This day had left you exhausted and confused and scared and so angry. It was all too much.
You tried to lie down as close to the edge as you could, but he pulled you in close so that your back was flush to his front, his arm thrown over your waist. “I'm so proud of you,” he whispered into your hair, “getting through your first day without having to go to the punishment room.”
Your mouth went completely dry. A room you hadn’t been to. Somewhere worse than the quiet room. “What's–” your tongue struggled to form the words. You took a breath and tried again. “What's the punishment room?” You caught yourself at the last minute and added a quiet “Sir.”
His hand caressed your side. “You keep being my good girl and you won't have to find out.”

"Will. I hope my timing is not too inconvenient. Do you happen to be in Baltimore?"
"Yes, what happened?" Will said as he picked up his phone.
"My Bentley was towed. Do you think you could pick me up so I can retrieve it?"
"Send me the address and I will be there in a moment."
***
"See what I believed?" Hannibal said as he showed Will the parking lot.
"And you were absolutely right. I always park here. There are always cars here. Look at that one parking right now. Since when are they towing them?"
"Could be a new rule."
"How much did you have to pay?"
"More than I would have liked."
"Let's go, get into my car. I am having a word with them." Hannibal didn't comment. The individuals who picked up his car were anyway destined to end up in his plate sooner or later.
No one touches his Bentley.
***
"Go there right now. Have a look. And tell all those cars the same thing."
"Sir, it's the law."
"The law my ass."
Hannibal lifted his eyes from the paperwork he was filling. He had to bite his tongue in order to stop himself from smiling.
"Excuse me but who are you? Since you are not the owner of the car?"
"You are damn right. That's my husband's car that you towed. And I am not leaving this place until you admit that it was a mistake on your behalf."
Hannibal dropped the pen on the floor and didn't even bother to pick it up. He almost dropped the papers as well.
"Sir, I would like to ask you to leave the room...your behavior is not very respectful."
"Did I hurt your feelings-" Will stopped to have a look at the name tag "Jeremy? I found your behavior to be more than unacceptable yet here we are. And listen, my husband might be very gracious with matters like this, but trust me, I am not."
"I am calling the police."
"Yeah?" Will said and pulled out his credentials. "Tell me again about the law."
Jeremy gulped and put his phone down. At this point Hannibal had to take off his coat. The temperature in the room was very high, of course.
"I know the law, and I am very much aware of the fact that you are towing only the expensive cars. It's been a matter the FBI has had its eyes on for weeks. So now, before my team arrives, you owe my husband some money. And an apology."
"Sir...our wages are low...please don't get us into more trouble. If our boss finds out..."
"I don't like repeating myself."
Jeremy was shaking but he rushed to took some money from a drawer. His trembling hands made counting them a lot more difficult.
Will turned to Hannibal who showed the same expression he would show in a museum. Fascination. Admiration. And something else.
The man gave Hannibal his money back and apologized multiple times.
"That was impressive, Will." Hannibal said as they left the building.
"I can't tolerate this type of things. Especially when it's you."
"Tell me, how much of it was real?"
"It was mostly bluffing. The FBI is not coming. But I had a feeling my assumption related to what they're doing is true." Will explained. "They never tried to pick up my volvo."
"We really need to get you a better car." Hannibal said, impressed by Will's mind even after all that time.
"Snob."
"I liked seeing you like that."
"Oh, I know. I put on a show mostly for your own entertainment."
Will's hand found his.

enough to make me cry
blade is your only roommate, your only friend, and your only way home from this terrible party you found yourself in.
blade x gn reader — 3.3k — college & roommates au!, very americanized college experiences, frat parties, mentions of drinking & vomiting, could be read as platonic but there are definitely romantic undertones, feelings of inadequacy/being out of place, hurt/comfort, social anxiety, blade is probably ooc i'm gonna be so honest, mild kafka & reader friendship, erggg im probably missing something
notes: no i have to be so honest blade is probably completely out of character i have not played a single side quest with him in it but i just think he has reluctant roommate-to-best friend potential and i wanted to pour that into a fic,,, this is mostly unintelligible but i did proofread! love you all
—°+..。*゚。*゚+.*.。.—
A warm hand rests on your shoulder, and the first thing that you think is Blade’s hands are supposed to be cold.
It’s really pathetic. You’re somewhere in a stupid frat house, the thrumming of music around you. There’s the flashing colors and sounds of Mario Kart on the TV, the smell of puke (probably yours) and corona lite, and a hand on your shoulders that you’ve discerned is not your roommate, Blade’s. 
Looking to the side, you follow the hand (painted, manicured nails, definitely still not Blade’s), and it leads up to an arm up to a shoulder up to a face, and—oh. 
“You’re—” you pause, getting your words in order before you puke them up, “you’re Blade’s pretty lady friend?” It’s supposed to come out as a statement, but leans more to a question. She looks down, a bit of a teasing grin on her face, but her eyes are a little soft so you trust her. 
“Is that what he calls me?” she jokes.
“No, I’m— I came up with that.” If you had any dignity left in you, you’d be embarrassed to admit that to her. Unfortunately, you’re pretty sure that Kafka (the pretty lady friend in question) just held your hair back and wiped your face as you puked into a frat-house toilet, flushing your dignity away with your dinner. Your eyes burn with tears and mortification, and you pray that only Kafka saw your embarrassing mishaps.
“I called him to pick you up,” she tells you, already looking away from you and scanning the room as if looking for something, or someone. “I would take you home myself, but I’ve got some things to take care of. And I’m assuming you didn't bring your keys with you?” 
A quick pat-down of your pockets confirms that, yes, you somehow managed to leave your keys at home, the one personal necessity that you were supposed to bring besides your phone. Which, thankfully, you do at least have.
“Umm, the…” you mutter, tongue tangling uselessly as you try to find a way out of here without facing the impending doom of Blade’s aggravated scolding and his I told you so’s. 
A week ago, you went to him with an invite to this frat party and begged him to come with you, saying something like You don’t go out much, this is your chance! He’d adamantly refused, calling it a bad idea and rolling his eyes whenever you brought it up. But you were stubborn, and you wanted to have a fun college experience, so you forced him to drive you to the party with the promise of paying for his next gas payment and getting your own ride back home at the end of the night. 
“I can go,” you finally tell Kafka, mind stringing along memories and thoughts and alarm bells of get your ass home before you have to sit in an awful car ride with Blade, “It’s, like, a fifteen minute walk, don’t call him.” 
“It’s a little too late for that, kid,” Kafka drawls, amusement in her words. She’s smiling down at you, and you’re reminded of how small you feel. “He’s already on the way.” 
“No!” you protest, a little too loudly, but not loud enough to be heard over the thumping of music and bodies and voices. “It’s— Kafka, please, just tell him to turn around, I really don’t want him to deal with me today.” 
If you knew her even less, you’d misinterpret the twitch in her expression as concern—but you’re not too dumb, so you read it as amusement. “Trust me, he’s not going to have a problem with that. You’ll be fine.” 
Whatever that means. Kafka’s too cryptic for your liking, but you won’t complain. She wiped up your vomit from the dirty bathroom tiles and stayed with you to make sure you didn't get trampled, and she didn't complain about any of that. In a week, when you have enough strength to face her again, you’ll treat her to a good, expensive, flaky pastry. She seems like the kind of person who would love those. 
Her phone buzzes with a text notification, and she clicks her tongue, standing up and pulling you with her. Her hand is still warm, seeping through the sleeve of your shirt as she takes you by the forearm, gentle but guiding. Your stomach churns at the thought of seeing Blade, the thought of him seeing you like this. Freshly-puked-out with a nasty stomachache all because of a party that he told you not to go to. 
You hold back your protests as Kafka leads you through the still-crowded frat house. What time is it? Has nobody gotten bored yet, seriously? At least you didn't kill the mood by running to the bathroom and weeping into the toilet. It seems like nobody noticed, except for Kafka, and you don’t know if that should make you feel comforted or just more upset. 
The cool air of the night hits you as you step through the front door, eyes tracking your feet as you walk down the concrete steps. You see the silhouette of Blade’s ugly blue car in your peripheral vision, but you don’t want to look up in fear of seeing the disappointment on his face so soon. He’s going to rip you a new one, and then call you a slob and kick you out of the apartment and say I can’t have a party fiend living with me even though this was your first party ever, honest. 
You barely register that you’ve reached the passenger side of Blade’s car, only coming back to awareness when Kafka opens the door for you and starts nudging you into the seat. A really pathetic part of you wants to grab onto her arm and cry hard enough that she just relents and lets you walk home, but you’re already half into the passenger seat, looking everywhere but Blade. 
“Take care of them, won’t you, Bladie?” Kafka commands lightly, her hand leaving your arm as you get situated and buckled up in the car. Blade lets out a little huff in response and your stomach sinks. He’s already annoyed. 
The car ride to your apartment is only five minutes at this time of night. You just have to survive five minutes in silence and pray that he doesn’t tear into you and scold you like a disappointed parent. A glance at the clock on the car’s console confirms that it’s half past midnight. What the fuck. What were you even doing at the party for that long, besides vomiting and crying? 
The car rumbles, exhaust sputtering a little bit as Blade pulls out from the side of the street and drives slowly, carefully, as if not to rattle you, and you really just want him to speed up and throttle the car around so you feel more guilty about waking him up in the middle of the night to come pick you up. Blade goes to bed at eleven, the latest. You can’t imagine why Kafka thought it would be a good idea to call him, of all people, but then you remember that you kind of don’t have any other friends on campus. Your chest tightens at the thought. 
Blade makes some kind of sniffling noise, his way of trying to initiate some kind of conversation. There’s not even any music playing, because he always drives in dead silence because he’s abnormal, and on any other day you’d tease him about it like you always do. You see him turn his head to you in the corner of your eye, but you refuse to acknowledge him. You wish he’d just start scolding you, yelling at you or something. 
Tears prickle behind your eyes, painfully so, but your hands tighten around each other in your lap as you will yourself to not cry like a baby in front of your roommate. He lets out another sigh, but it doesn’t sound angry, just tired, and somehow that makes you feel worse. 
“What were you guys even drinking?” is his question of voice, and it’s the one question you didn't want him to ask, and you can’t help it when the tears spill over and you bring your hand up to wipe them away frantically, hiccuping a little bit as your gut churns. 
“What—” Blade stutters, and he never stutters, and you see him whip his head around to look at you, crying into your hands over a simple question, and you just want to leave the car and walk home like you told Kafka you would do. He pulls over to the side of some residential street. There’s a dog barking in a yard and wind chimes clinking together, and you think of your handmade bottle cap wind chime hung in the balcony of yours and Blade’s apartment, and it just makes you cry more. 
The car comes to a full stop. Blade puts it in park and turns completely to you. You spare a quick glance at him through the gaps between your fingers, and there’s something like worry on his face, which you’ve never seen before. His face is pinched, lips parted as if wanting to say something, but he can’t. He’s waiting for you. 
“I didn't drink anything, Blade,” you sob, feeling miserable at the state of yourself, at how you went to a frat party with nobody you knew and just walked around like a lost child, too scared to drink or talk to anyone, too anxious to say a word. “Not even a shot, or a sip, nothing from the fridge. It was so stupid, you were right, okay? It was a stupid idea, and I shouldn’t have gone.” Your breath catches in your throat, and the car is dead quiet as Blade lets your words sink in. 
You try not to make so much noise when you cry, but you’re sniveling and wiping your face and wishing that he would just stop looking at you like that. You can still see the ruby-red of his eyes even when you can’t bear to look up at him, and it makes you so viscerally upset. 
Blade is beautiful, really, and it makes you so upset that he looks better than you right now despite him being dragged right out of bed by Kafka’s phone call with a request to pick you up just minutes ago. You, who spent hours selecting an outfit, just to feel inadequate and wholly ugly the minute you walked through the door. It felt like you were back in middle school, spending hours with your parents picking out an outfit to a school dance, looking through ties and pants and shoes, just to show up and feel both overdressed and underdressed, feel like a fool, feel like you just can’t look the way everyone else does. Like something is always a little wrong. 
“Kafka said that you got sick. You didn't drink anything? You’re sure?” 
“No,”  you confirm pitifully, wanting him to just drop the topic and drive the rest of the way home and never talk about this again. “I was just anxious, and I puked like an idiot. Kafka helped me, she was the only one that I knew at the party. I don’t know. I don’t remember anymore. I was just anxious.” 
He says your name, not unkindly, but with a prying tone that just makes a fresh wave of tears stream down your face in rivulets. “Why would you go if you didn't know anyone?” 
“I don't know!” you shout, heated with embarrassment. You’re acting like a child, throwing a tantrum and crying and shouting in Blade’s car. The seatbelt is too tight on you. You fiddle with it, pulling it from the juncture of your neck and shoulder and loosening it, scratching your bitten nails against the scratchy cloth and looking out of the car window so that you can avoid Blade’s awful, terrible, intrusive gaze. 
“I just wanted to be normal, or something. I don’t know anybody from any of my classes. I don’t talk to anyone from my major. And then I got the invite for the party somehow and I just thought it would be fun. I don’t know, Blade, I know I should’ve listened to you, I’m sorry.” 
“Stop,” he says firmly, fully turned to you now, as if he wants you to look back at him, to listen to whatever he’s going to say, and that’s the one thing you don’t want to do. You hate that he’s being kind. You wish he’d be sarcastic and mean and cruel, bite into you and feed off your self-pity. But he’s being nice, nice in the same way that he’s nice when he buys the right brand of milk for you (because the others make you sick, and the taste is different), or when he drives you places in his car when it’s raining so that you don’t have to take the buses everywhere, or when he comes home with your ridiculous coffee order that costs a hellacious amount of money with all of your substitutions and additions and flavorings. 
“There’s nothing to be sorry about,” he says resolutely, leaving no room for argument, “Just— I didn't know you were feeling like that. I would’ve gone with you if you told me you needed someone. I assumed you were going with a friend.” 
You don’t respond with I don’t have any friends, because you’re pretty sure that’s clear enough by now, and you don’t want to confirm what’s already been confirmed a million times over just from the way you act. The way you cling to yours and Blade’s apartment, the way you never spend a second longer than you need to in any of your classes, the way that sometimes, when Blade goes out for class or work, you sit on the couch in silence with your laptop out, doing your work for the week and checking the clock and taking naps so that you don’t have to feel so alone for so long. 
“You didn't want to go,” you say instead, “I wasn’t going to make you just because I’m— I don’t know.” 
“I would’ve gone for you,” he tells you, really tells you, with a force in his words, like he wants to drive the point into you with a stake, driven right through your heart. “I would do a lot of things if you asked. You just need to ask.” 
You don’t— you really don’t want to think about what that means. What he means. You rip your eyes away from the car window and turn to face him. He’s not too close. You almost wish he could be closer, but you would suffocate under the pressure in your stomach and behind your eyes. 
He shouldn’t say things like that, things like You just need to ask, because you’d ask for a lot if given the chance. You’d ask for him to come to parties with you, stay by your side, let you put a hand on his shoulder and guide him around another disgusting frat house as if you know what you’re doing. You’d ask him to sleep in the same bed as you some nights, just a foot away from each other, backs turned to each other but still close enough that you can feel the unnatural coldness that radiates off of Blade. 
You’d ask him to introduce you to Kafka and that other girl they hang out with, to say something stupid and funny like This is my abhorrent roommate, be nice to them, and that way you’d have more contacts in your phone that aren't just Blade and your parents and two old high school friends who you haven’t spoken to in a year. You’d ask him to be a lot more than just a plus-one to a party full of people you’ve never met. 
“I just want to go home,” you breathe out, a guilty confession burning your gums and leaving a sour taste in your mouth. “I’m sorry.” 
“Stop saying sorry,” he asserts for the second time tonight, making your lungs squeeze as you puff out a tired exhale. Blade turns back in his seat, taking the car out of park and heading back onto the road—driving slowly, yet again, avoiding cracks and potholes in the road. “You need to eat something. You’ll wake up with a hellish headache if you go to bed dehydrated.” 
“I don’t think that’s true.” 
“I said it, so it’s true,” he says petulantly, turning the car down into a road that’s definitely not in the direction of your apartment building. To your hidden delight, the glowing sign of a twenty-four-seven ice cream store comes into view, and you sit up just a little bit. Blade slows the car as he turns into the drive-thru, glancing at you with an eyebrow half-raised. 
“What do you want? I’ll order for you.” 
“I don’t have my wallet,” you admit, just a little bit embarrassed. “I didn't even bring my keys with me. Do you think they take Apple Pay?” 
A breathy laugh escapes him, and you catch sight of a dimple pressed into his cheek, and you want to press your thumb into it and look at his smile, just for a little longer. “Don’t be dumb. I’m paying,” he tells you, the same way he has every time he pays for your cafe drink, or when he comes home from work with your favorite, and says You’re broke enough without having to pay for these drinks, don’t pay me back in that snippy way he shows his care. 
You ask for a medium vanilla milkshake, with sprinkles, and he gets you a large instead, which you’re more than grateful for. He refuses to let you look at the receipt for the total cost, and hands you the milkshake with a comical severity that you often see in him. The sweet drink washes away any bitter taste left in your mouth, and you feel a little better, a little nicer in your haphazard party outfit and under Blade’s fleeting gaze. 
A deep sigh escapes you, one of relief, when the car finally parks at your apartment building. Blade puts a cold hand between your shoulder blades, unobtrusive and leading, and it’s a comforting contrast from the heat lingering on your skin from the party and the closed car. It feels right, more in-place than Kafka’s warm hands were when she wiped your face and kept you steady, though she was just as gentle. 
Blade all but tosses you onto the couch, claiming that it’s much too late for a shower and he’d rather not deal with you collapsing from exhaustion in the tub. You relent easily, the exhaustion of the night hitting you and soaking into your limbs. 
“I’ll let you sleep on the couch,” he says, and it’s a good and kind thing, because he knows that sometimes you hate your bedroom because it’s just too empty, and the constant sound filtering into the living room puts you at ease. He never lets you sleep on the couch, because it’s bad for your back, and he jokes about you developing adult onset scoliosis with the awful way you sleep. Letting you do it, just this once, is another one of his small mercies. 
The TV is on, humming at a low volume, and your legs are thrown across Blade’s lap. You’re shocked that he’s willing to fall asleep with you like this, but he’s kind, sarcastic and biting but kind all the same, as much as he loathes to admit it. It’s not too lonely, you decide, hearing the bottle cap wind chimes on your balcony clink together in dissonant harmonies. 
(There’s a missing text from a new contact on your phone when you wake up, coming from pretty lady friend, extending an invite to brunch in two days, and you kick your legs on the couch in giddy excitement, thinking about how you’ll rope Blade into coming with you, too.)

Febuwhump Day 6: "You lied to me"
Content warning: hospital whump, (arguably) bad caretaker
“You lied to me.” 
Those were the words Caretaker was greeted with when they entered Whumpee’s hospital room. They looked small and sickly in their bed, medical equipment seeming to engulf their thin frame. A sickly blush covered their face, looking almost like a rash on irritated skin. Their eyes were still glassy, but far more alert than when Caretaker had last seen them. 
Caretaker hadn’t expected them to be awake yet. Let alone sitting upright in bed. Let alone glaring at Caretaker with so much venom that they nearly took a step back in shock.
:”Baby, what–”
“You said you’d never force me to do anything I didn’t want to do. You lied.”
“I–,” the denial died in Caretaker’s throat before it formed. Whumpee was right, technically. Caretaker had known they would refuse to go to the doctor. The only reason they’d gone before was because they’d been unconscious, and even then they’d demanded to be released as soon as possible. They would never willingly decide to go to the hospital.
Caretaker knew all that. And so when Whumpee, already struggling to recover from what they’d endured under Whumper, had fallen ill, Caretaker knew they’d never agree to see a doctor. 
And so Caretaker hadn’t bothered asking. 
It’d been easy to slip something into their food. They usually would’ve noticed it instantly, but illness had dulled their sharp mind and left them half delirious with fever. It’d been easy to bundle their limp, far too light body in a blanket and tuck them into the car. It’d been easy to ignore the look of betrayal in their half lidded eyes, and pretend their slurred objections were just incoherent mumblings. 
Some part of them had hoped Whumpee wouldn’t remember it. 
“I had no choice,” they said instead. 
“You had no choice?” Whumpee laughed, humorless and unpleasant. “You drugged me and dragged me to the hospital. Who forced you to do that?”
“I had to, Whumpee. You weren’t getting better. You were sick, and injuries from–...from before–,” Caretaker hesitated, stuttering. 
Whumpee did not. “From Whumper? You can say it. I’m not going to fall apart.”
Caretaker nodded, swallowing thickly. “You were already hurt, your body couldn’t handle illness alongside that. You may not remember but–,” the memory of the coughing fits that left Whumpee struggling to stay upright, the unfocused and cloudy eyes staring dully at nothing, the ever rising number on the thermometer, flashed through Caretaker’s mind. “--it was bad. I was worried you’d die. I just wanted to help you, and I knew you wouldn’t let me.”
“So it’s my fault now?,” Bitterness dripped from every word Whumpee spoke. They tried to lift themselves into a more upright position, arms shaking from the effort, and Caretaker had to resist the urge to rush over and help them. “It’s my fault I don’t get to make decisions for myself anymore?” 
“I never said that.”
“You think you just have a right. Because you ‘care about me’, you have the right to ignore every single thing I want. Because you’re smarter, because you know better.” 
“Just listen–”
“No, you listen,” the words came out in a growl. Whumpee’s hands gripped at the bedsheets, shaking. “Everyone’s always–always deciding shit for me! Treating me like I can’t be trusted anymore, like I’m some little kid who can’t think for themselves! Whumper thought the exact same thing, but it’s fine when you do it, right?!”
“Stop it.” the words came out more harshly than Caretaker had expected. Whumpee flinched back as if they’d been hit, falling silent. “Don’t compare me to them. I’m trying to help you, and you’re fighting me at every turn! We just got you back, and it’s like you’re trying to leave again,” the words spilled out of Caretaker, half angry, half pleading. “I’m not going to sit by and let you hurt yourself.”
The two fell into silence. For the briefest moment, a look of fear flash over Whumpee’s face. They shrank back, and in that instant the guilt Caretaker felt nearly sent them to their knees. Whumpee’s look of resentment returned only a moment later, but the anger that had fueled it seemed snuffed out. They wouldn’t look Caretaker in the eye. 
The beeping of Whumpee’s heart monitor, insistent and far too fast, felt like a condemnation in Caretaker’s ears. 
Caretaker let out a shuddering sigh, a hand coming up to rest in their hair. “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have yelled.”
Whumpee was silent for a long moment, not turning their gaze upward. When they finally spoke, their voice was quiet, drained of energy. “Just leave.”
“Please, just let me explain–,”
“Please. Don’t make me beg.” 
“I’m sorry.”
Whumpee didn’t respond. They didn’t look up when Caretaker left.

hi ! can u do when u flinch during an argument w/ seventeen
of course! 
svt reacting to you flinching during an argument
cheol - he would freeze in shock, his mouth ajar after he saw you wince at him shouting. he couldn’t believe what he had done and tries to find the right words (“.. y/n.. i..”) but instead leaves out of the front door removing himself, the problem. he was supposed to protect you, to keep you safe, but he was the one who scared you. your expression replays in his mind as he gets in his car and drives away. he will never forgive himself for this
jeonghan - would suddenly let out a yell of anger and you would jump in shock. his eyes go wide “huh? i’m sorry, i wasn’t doing that at you i’m just mad at myself” and would reach out to stroke your face and bring you into a hug. he would feel you shaking under his touch and let go, stepping back to look in your eyes to say “i’m never mad at you, y/n” before giving you a kiss on the forehead
joshua - cannot see this man getting mad enough to scare you but the tension in the air during an argument would be insane, making you on edge and highly reactive. seeing this would turn his anger off like a switch as you're the most important thing to him and if you're uncomfortable he will do anything to change that.
jun - he reached to grab your hoodie that was falling off your shoulder and you jumped back away from his outstretched arm. it was cold outside and he didn’t want you to get sick. he was confused so he tried again but you stepped back once more. “why are you doing this? aren’t you cold?” he noticed your hitched breathing and slowly put two and two together. “i’m just trying to help, i won’t touch you if you don’t want me to”
hoshi - soooo confused. racks his brain trying to figure out what to do because he doesn’t want you to be scared. steps towards you grabbing your hand with both of his and gets down on his knees with his head lowered in an apology “whatever it is i did i’m super duper sorry, please don’t be afraid of me”
wonwoo - would raise his arms to run his hands through his hair in distress and notice you flinch from his unexpected movement. he would lock eyes with you and let his hands slowly fall so you would know that he wasn’t a threat. you would sit next to each other in silence for a while before you start to whisper an apology for your reaction, but before you could finish he would turn and say “you don’t have to apologise. i’m the one who should be sorry”
woozi - says in shock “why are you reacting like that? you know i would never hurt you, so why are you flinching at me? please trust me more y/n” and gestures for you to come closer to him so he can hold you tightly while whispering in your ear how much he loves you
dk - makes him feel like the worst person to ever exist and collapses into the sofa, his head in his hands. can’t look up at you no matter how much you try because he feels so sick. after he'll cling to you for the rest of the day making sure to do everything for you
mingyu - his height is intimidating on a good day let alone when he’s angry and he knows it. when you flinch he crouches down and looks up at you with his puppy eyes “i didn’t mean to scare you. i’ll stop now. i love you” and grabs your hand to kiss it before standing back up slowly and gives you a hug
minghao - i think he would be good at controlling his emotions and rarely get angry but if he did, your reaction would make him realise what he was doing and he’d instantly stop, apologise and ask if you were okay. if he felt angry again in the future he would walk away and calm down before returning to talk things through with you
seungkwan - he knows his reactions are pretty big and seeing you flinch makes him realise he should be softer with you. he would be so concerned and panic “oh god what do i do, i’m so sorry, i didn't mean to y/n. this doesn’t matter anymore, let’s stop arguing” and he’d be very disappointed in himself for being so careless
vernon - “crap did i scare you? i didn’t mean to, ah damn i’m really sorry” and lumbers over with his arms open to hold you. quietly he says “i would never, could never, hurt you. let’s drop this whole thing and do something else instead, what do you want to do?” and treats you extra special for the rest of the day
dino - his expression would turn from annoyance into worry "ah sorry sorry are you okay? do you want me to do anything?" and makes you go and sit down, bringing you water and kneeling in front of you to make sure that you were okay. he would rest his head against your knees for comfort

GEN Z READER IN TASK FORCE 141 HC
Tumblr media
A/N: I saw a couple of these and I couldn't stop trying to find more, and I just love the concept of all these big men trying to understand the reader's humour but I also love how they try to watch over them even though they can easily take care of themselves. Also, do expect the codename to change if I make another one of these but if anyone has ideas please tell me. Anyways I hope this doesn't flop and please enjoy.
Warnings: Dark humour, Suicide jokes, simping, swearing, mentions of parents leaving the reader, basically gen z stuff, usual CoD violence
Character(s): Soap, Gaz, John, Ghost, Price x Gn! reader (And graves kinda-)
Codename: Daffodil
There is no thinking about it you are the youngest and probably the shortest in the task force.
When Laswell first told Price that he will have someone younger than he expected to join the task force he immediately said no, he wasn't going to babysit you.
Plus you looked way too young to be in the army
Little did he know, you got your codename for a reason.
But once Laswell said you were very strong and he could trust you to hold your own and that he had to, he didn't have much of a choice.
And as expected once Price and Laswell introduce you to the boys they were shocked too.
There was a literal child in front of them.
And Soap being Soap he let out a little chuckle earning a nudge and glare from Ghost and an "ahem" from Price
"This is Daffodil, your new rookie. And I warn you don't underestimate them just from their name. Treat them well."
At first you were very quiet and only spoke when spoken to, almost beating Ghost's stoic and quiet nature
To which the rest of 141 joked about quite a lot
but after a while, you started to open up to them which was a nice sign
But the boys did catch onto your humour pretty quickly which caused them to worry for your mental state.
You would start saying suicide jokes at 1 mile per second at every small inconvenience.
"If that happens again I'm going to jump in front of a car- I am going to hang myself- I cannot right now-"
"Kid...It's just paper work..."
"Exactly"
One time you and the group were going after a target and of the guys' men shot you in the arm. It wasn't as bad as you thought it would be but it still hurt.
While Soap and Gaz asked if you were okay you were completely hysterical at the moment. So much in fact that you shouted something so stupid before the guy met his inevitable end.
By Ghost too:D
Thanks Ghost<33
"Do you want this back???"
BLAM
"Oop, mans left quicker than my dad."
To say the least, your boys were concerned for you because of that
Even Ghost tried to check up on you every minute or two after they got the bullet out and patched you up.
You all eventually got the target in the end but your boys ended up forcing you to go get your wound checked since a, and I quote, "Crusty dusty" building wouldn't be the best place to pick out bullet fragments.
You came back with one of the doctor's pens because you liked it and claimed you finessed him when in reality he gave it to you because he noticed you staring and you were too scared to ask.
It was a LED cat paw pen
"Gaz what does finesse mean?"
"I don't really know..?"
"What do you mean you're supposed to know-"
One time you shouted slay during a mission once Ghost killed one of the targets.
To be honest, it did make him laugh but Price, on the other hand, didn't understand but he soon got what it meant. Kinda.
With that being said Gaz and sometimes Soap are the go-to when Price or Ghost don't understand what the hell you just said since they are the younger ones.
Which also means you got along better with them
And if they don't understand something they always try their best to find out and find more things you would laugh at.
Soap even goes that extra effort to make memes and send them to you.
But don't get me wrong you love spending time with Price and Ghost.
And speaking of memes you always end up making stupid gifs of Ghost and always end up sending them to the tf141 group chat that you made to annoy them most of the time or Ghost himself where you sometimes end up joke flirting with him
Mans is scrumdiliumcious if you did say so yourself
(Ahem basically the gif at the start of the hcs)
One time you called Ghost Mummy and Soap and Gaz wouldn't stop laughing while Price sighed at the little slip-up.
It wasn't a slip-up.
You defiantly burst into Price's office most of the time too when you have nothing to do.
Even though hearing Price drone on about his paperwork doesn't sound that fun it's nice to hear his voice.
And If you didn't have good parents or were absent most of your life he would never turn you away once he sees you at his door.
This also applies if you have good parents too
From the number of times he had to lecture you and your boys about how you can't have McDonald's after a mission and how it's bad for you is basically allowing him to adopt you.
Once you met Grave one thing kept popping into your mind.
Fix it Felix.
Which didn't really give you both a great start but he warmed up to you sooner or later.
And as much as an asshole he is most of the time he actually gets concerned when he hears one of your suicide jokes.
When he first heard one over coms he made sure to keep an eye on you every so often and even messaged you after the mission was over.
Don't get me wrong Graves is kinda...shitty but that doesn't make him that much of an asshole to not check up on a 'child' when they say something concerning.
And when all your boys are free and there is time you all have a movie night.
It's quite relaxing, it was nice to have these quiet moments with your boys considering your jobs.
Although one time it was getting really late and you all got through 2 movies and you almost looked like you were going to pass out so that's when papa Price came out.
"Papa, more movie."
"No the movie is over, we gotta go.."
"PAPA"
"Oh, Jesus Christ.." (💀)
"Me. Want. More. Movie."
"No Daffo-"
"YOU LIE"
"Kiddo the movie is-"
"Price what did you do-" (🧼)
Once you calmed down and Price realized what you said he cried internally.
Everything was okay in the end though and Gaz had that on camera so they can always look back and laugh at it.

KÖNIG WITH BRAT READER PLS PLS PLS
Me myself i am a BIG brat, good luck to him trying to discipline me lmao
König is a nice man, hes sweet and stuff. So i wanna see König lose his patience. I want him to be mad at me. I want him to take out his built up anger. I requested you this because i trust your writing the most.Pls feed me i love ur blog<3
König w/ a Bratty S/O
Tumblr media
Warnings: 18+, Nothing too Explicit TBH, Bratty Reader, No Pronouns used for Reader except ‘You’, Dominant König, Spanking, Edging, Overstimulation, Restraints, Punishment, etc.
König could handle your incessant whining, your moaning and your complaining.
At most, he usually found it endearing, perhaps even adorable when he looked past the vague hostility and saw insecurity buried within, hiding, trembling.
But then you had to go for the throat – hit him where it really hurt.
You’d had the gall to suggest that he couldn’t satisfy you – that you’d go and search for someone who could, someone who “can do it with their hands tied behind their back.”
And König snapped.
You didn’t notice it at first; the shift in the atmosphere was so sudden, the snap of a harp string – a heartstring.
And you didn’t notice König rising, his shadow eclipsing your form as you faced away, arms crossed, spouting fallacies about your neighbours who you wagered were “ten times better” in bed than him.
It was only when his chest was to your back, his bulge between your thighs, that you snapped out of your beration.
The air was thick now, begging to be sliced, dissected, with something – anything – to end its own existence.
Aside from the rising volume of your battering heart and König’s restrained, bullish breathing, it was silent. A carbon monoxide death in all but feeling. This was silent, this was invisible. And it was deadly.
No-one was around to help you; that much you gathered from the lack of voices or footsteps from your neighbours, no cars passing by on the street, no chatter except for that dying in your mind.
König’s anger bulged from his very soul. And with his face hidden behind you, you could only imagine the look of thunder that rolled across it.
König clapped a large, bearish, calloused hand upon your shoulder, and squeezed. Tighter and tighter with each passing second, he became. The thought that he could break your collarbone this way crossed your mind.
Wincing, you tried to turn around, to placate König.
He growled, gripped you by both shoulders now, and kept you facing forwards, pushing you.
“Go on, Darling,” he hissed. It was not a request. “Keep going.”
You were unsure as to whether he meant to keep goading or keep walking, but you weren’t taking any chances.
König marched you to the bedroom, his wall of a body making escape an impossibility.
This was going to be a long night.
NSFW:
König’s veil stays on during punishment.
It’s his way of letting you know that your loving boyfriend is gone; no human soul exists in this vessel anymore.
Ties you to the bedposts. He’s not giving you a moment of reprieve, nor a chance to defend yourself.
Spanks you with a thick belt he keeps hidden away in the wardrobe, which he bought specifically in anticipation for your insufferable behaviour.
Makes you tell him you love him as he’s beating you.
Gives him a sense of power that he can force your love in some way, whether you love him or not (you do; but for the sake of this segment, you usually pretend you don’t. König knows you’re lying, though).
He’ll see your backside red and inflamed before he lets up, and even then it’s because he’s moving on to the next phase of your punishment.
Edges you. Constantly.
And König has the restraint to keep withdrawing whenever he feels you’re close.
He doesn’t want you feeling even a second’s worth of relief. Not after the way you spoke to him.
And, eventually, after hours of edging, he’ll finally let you finish.
But don’t be mistaken; this isn’t the end.
There’s a dark glint in his eye as you’re left panting, sweating, almost crying.
“Oh, Darling,” he says, brushing a sodden lock of hair from your forehead. Faux reassurance. “We’re not done yet.”
Overstimulation Central.
You’ll be absolutely weeping as König slams into you, your already sensitive body forced to bear the pounding shocks he sends through you, even when you plead with him to stop.
“Can’t satisfy you, can I?” König says, mockingly. “Then tell me who’s filling you right now – tell me who you belong to.”
“You, König! You, you – only you!”
Your throat will have run raw with how you scream König’s name, his body caging yours beneath it.
It’s his way of telling you you’re his.
And you wouldn’t have it any other way.

Can I Call You Mine?
Tumblr media
Montague (fortnite) x (fem) reader
->If I chose you life could’ve been different
->2K word
TW: guns & death
——
You were untouchable like a distant diamond sky. He couldn’t understand why he was so caught up in you. It wasn’t like you gave a shit about him. 
You were one jewel he couldn't steal. 
No matter how good of a thief he was. 
The dreams of holding you in his arms and calling you his was what gave him strength to keep going everyday. 
You had chosen the other side. 
That heist changed everything. The biggest regret of his was choosing that medallion over the one thing he cherished most. 
You.
He left you behind; speeding off in that stupid silver car. 
Leaving you to rush off and fend for yourself. 
The next time he saw you was at a meeting with the other millionaires he had gathered into his Society. 
You had joined a group called the UnderGround. As one of their leaders. 
Learning that he was on top of your hit list sent shivers down his spine. 
He didn’t wanna leave you. He was just blinded by the idea of wealth. 
Pretending like you were an enemy hurt his heart. He didn’t know what he would do if he ever came face to face with you. 
The lingering reality hung in his mind. 
It’s you or him if it came to that. 
You were leader of the UnderGround and he was leader of the Society. 
One of you had to go. 
Yet he would let you pull the trigger if it came to that.
He couldn't kill you. 
He was far too caught up in you. 
Which is why the night he caught you sneaking in hurt him. He had heard the noises coming down stairs. Somewhere near the vault. The thought of him just hearing things crossed his mind yet it was too loud for him to just be hearing things. 
Heading down the stairs from his master bedroom he eyed the door to the vault. His hair was messed up, dress shirt loosely buttoned and dress pants without a belt. He looked like a mess. 
“Who’s there?” His voice came out slightly shaky, holding up his pistol. Aiming it at whoever might be down there. 
The rustling noise stopped. He headed down the steps to the vault, the shadow of a person coming into view. 
“{Y/N}?” He dropped his aim slightly. 
“Montague.” Your voice seethed as you looked up at him. 
His eyes softened and he stepped down a few steps to get a better look at you. 
Instinctively you raised your own pistol, aiming straight at his head. 
“Woah- come on.. Let’s not do this.” Montague raised his hands; pistol in one. 
“Hand over the medallion now.” Your voice was so demanding, much rougher than he remembered. “Come on.. Let’s talk.” Pleading wasn’t something he did often. He would rather be shot than anyone hear him beg. For you on the other hand. He would do anything to have just a moment with you again. 
He missed how you both could talk about anything. Sit in an abandoned building and plan out the next heist. 
Stealing was the way you both lived. You had grown to trust each other in those heists. Robbing banks, jewelry stores, and random rich people. 
Montague had become the person he swore to you he wouldn't.
“We are doing this Montague.” He couldn't see through you like he used to. You seemed so truthful. Like you were serious about blowing his head off if you had to. 
“{Y/N}... please just let’s talk. I’ve missed y-.” He had taken the last few steps to reach you; hands still in the air. 
He felt the end of your gun press to his forehead. His eyes stared into your scrunched up ones. Anger prominent in your {e/c} eyes. In that moment he knew he lost you. He just wanted you. 
“Why miss me? You were the one who left me behind. Without a second thought.” That silky voice of yours despite seething with anger was so angelic. The feeling of the gun pressing against his forehead harder snapped him out of his thoughts. 
“I know what I did.. I know.” His voice was soft and pleading. He looked you in the eyes as he spoke. 
He had missed them. 
“If you don’t give me that medallion now, I’m gonna blow your head off and take it myself.” You shoved him against the wall holding the gun to his head. He didn’t even flinch. He just liked that you were somewhat touching him. 
“I miss you.” Those words hit your ears and for a moment the grip on your pistol faltered. 
His voice was almost a whisper and his breath tingled your neck. 
“Don’t do this to me Montague.. I can’t let my group down.” The feeling of the trigger between your fingers reminds you of how you controlled the situation despite his words. 
“I miss you, I miss you more and more everyday..” He stared into your eyes so desperate to change the emotion in them. He wanted to see that smile. 
The happy look in your eyes when you’d see him. 
He missed that. 
“I’m not falling for this Montague.. Let me in the vault.” You demand voice breaking between anger and sadness. 
He tore off his medallion and held it in front of the vault's scanner. The vault unlocked as it scanned the diamond. 
Your eyes widened slightly as you watched the vault open before turning back to him.
“I don’t want to hurt you {Y/N} trust me when I say that.. I didn’t mean to leave you behind. I was stupid for it..” 
You hesitated between letting him go and getting what you needed or holding him there against the wall.  
The way his eyes pleaded for you almost made you believe him. 
If you didn’t know him so well you’d think it was an act.
“You’re right. You were stupid for it.” Was the only reply you gave before kicking him in the crotch. His low groans filled your ears. You almost wanted to say you were sorry.
Too bad you weren’t 
He fell to the floor holding his crotch, letting out foul language in his native tongue. 
You quickly stepped into the vault looking around before grabbing the map you had been searching for. Just where Hope said it would be stored. Montague really wasn’t that good at hiding things. 
Something you always knew he faltered at.
A good thief but a terrible hider. 
You walked out stepping over Montague who laid on the floor still. 
You stopped and turned around to look at him. 
“I won’t be so nice next time.” Your voice was icy cold in warning. He simply looked up at you: regret covered his face. 
“{Y/..N}” He closed his eyes tightly as tears pricked the corners. You didn’t know what to do. Leave him there or stay. He used to be your best friend. Your ride or die. Now he was just..
Nothing.
The sound of your feet coming closer gave him strength to sit up. You crouched down to his level offering a small smile gaining one in response from him. 
“You’re so beautiful.. I wish I told you that sooner. I wish I told you a lot of things before I fucked us up.” His hand reached out and cupped your cheek. Letting yourself lean into his touch made memories flood back. 
How close you two used to be. 
His touch always calmed you down. No matter the situation. It still did.
“Oh Montague..” Your voice cracked slightly as you allowed yourself to soak up his warmth. 
“Please.. Don’t go.” He begged as he pulled you closer to him. His arms wrapping around you. 
“I have to.. I can’t let my group down.. I’m sorry Montague. It’s you or me. I can’t let it be me who gets left again.” Your words slowly soaked into him. Before he could react your pistol was back at his head. Tears streaming down your face.
It was a hard life now. No more fun and games of stealing stupid things no one would notice. 
Stealing a life would always be noticed. 
A heinous crime. 
Something that could not be undone once done. 
You knew that. 
You had to do this.
You had to win this battle. 
Jonsey, Hope, the whole organization was counting on you. 
“I love you.” 
Those three words made your whole body shake. How could you kill him after that? 
“I know you have to do this. I know that only one side is going to make it out of this thing alive.” It was his turn to start truly crying. But not from the fact he was going to die. 
No.
He was crying because at least even in his last few moments he gets to see you again. 
It was all he could ask for in this cruel world. 
“I love you too..” Your confession was all he needed to die happy. To know that he wasn’t chasing some dumb dream every night. You did like him back.. 
“Can I call you mine.. Once?” His question made your tears flow harder.
“Yes.. you can.” You sobbed harder as he leaned closer.
“I’m so glad you’re mine, mon amour.” His lips pressed against yours. For a moment you almost let your gun fall. 
Wouldn’t it be so easy to leave and run off with him? 
Possibly in your dreams. 
You would be hunted down and never forgiven for that act. 
You had picked your side to stay loyal to.
As did he.
So as you kissed him and lived in this moment of bliss you let it be the last thing he remembered. 
Before you pulled the trigger.
Leaving him with his last dying wish.
To call you his.

COLLIE DUTY
Tumblr media
SYNOPSIS > being the new CEO to the ‘Sim Corp’ was hard and stressful. jake didn’t have much time to spend with layla and so he decides to get a dogsitter, you. though, you were originally already his secretary. how will dog sitting bring you two closer?
ALTERNATE ENDING – yes, and?
— continuation from chapter 34 (please read if you haven’t)
you had walked out of the passenger side of the car and faced the view. you breathed in and out. jay didn’t say much, he just kept quiet and watched the view too.
“do you like jake a lot?” jay suddenly asks.
did you like jake? sure, he was everything you ever dreamt of the perfect and ideal type of boyfriend but he came with many flaws. which was normal. however, after breaking your trust and heart twice, you can’t help but feel lost…confused even.
“I don’t know.” you quietly whispered. the softness of your tone went with the beautiful scenery in front of you.
“you don’t know?” jay says in slight confusion.
“I know what my heart wants but…I can’t bring myself to physically accept him after he hurt me twice.” you explained. jay hums in acknowledgment. he understood where you were coming from and quite honestly, if he was in your position…he wouldn’t even forgive jake.
“so what are you going to do about it?”
“let him go.”
jay hums once more, “whatever you desire. you know what’s best for yourself and I’ll go along with it.”
“I don’t know what’s best for myself, honestly. I feel like I should just give up.”
“well, if your heart is telling you do so then you should. you’re someone who needs to be treated right,” jay says.
you looked up at him. “really? because I don’t feel like it. everyone that I fall in love with always leaves me in the end.”
jay shrugs, “they’re too blind to realise they’ve lost someone amazing.”
you snickered, “is this how you deal with all the ladies coming after you?”
“I don’t have anyone who likes me. My love life is kinda sad, honestly. The girl I like doesn’t like me back and all the dates I’ve gone to all just want me for my wealth and to get into my pants.” jay sighs.
“I’m so sorry.”
“it’s alright.”
“what about the girl who doesn’t like you back?”
“I would sacrifice her happiness over mine.” jay simply says as he directly looks into your eyes.
“shouldn’t you have some self-respect for yourself?”
“for her, I don’t. I want what’s best for her…even if she doesn’t like me.” jay smiles.
“whoever this girl is…she’s really unlucky. she should realise you’re the real deal.”
“yeah, she should…but I’m fine with it. As long as she’s happy with her decision.”
5 YEARS LATER…
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
as you looked down at your phone in the cafe that you had set up…you realise that there was something more to life. chasing after a guy who you thought was the one for you. clearly, that didn’t work out.
since, you had left Sim Corp. your life was…a little different but quite the same. you were your own little boss as you managed the cafe. when you first left Sim Corp. tons of the friends you made were reluctant to see you go. however, they understood where you came from. no one wanted to stay to face the love that wasn’t theirs.
scrolling through your gallery, you clicked on one photo. you would’ve deleted it but it would hurt you too much if you went with it. so here you were, staring at it. nearly bringing tears to your eyes. it was a photo of jake and layla. you were pathetic for still somehow having feelings for him after all these years. however, your heart just couldn’t give up on him.
everyday, you tried to live your best life. moving on and even trying to go out on dates to forget the pain that you withheld. however, it was no surprised that at the end of the date, your heart yearned for your true love. which is why…despite having a chance to possibly date jay or any other guy, you didn’t. for jay, he knows you can’t forget about jake. you thought you were stupid for still being stuck on him.
jay denies it. it just shows how much you really liked jake and quite honestly, he said if he was jake. he would be flattered. but alas, you had drifted apart from jake. never contacting him again after you left the company.
you could hear the bell to your little cafe door ringing, indicating someone had walked in.
“welcome to Lily Cafe-” the words that were supposed to continue after quickly died the moment you had laid eyes on the person who walked on.
Sim Jaeyun
he still looked as handsome as 5 years ago. you looked away and just went to the counter to attend to him as he still was a valued customer. jake stood in front of you (at the cashier) in awe. you still looked beautiful as ever. there was barely any changes to you and yet somehow, he felt like you were different.
“what would you like to have, sir.” jake swore his heart stopped. he missed your sweet voice.
“umm, it’s my first time here so what are the specials. umm any recommendations?”
“I believe the best recommendation I can give you is a simple vanilla latte and also along with the red velvet cake.”
“then can I have a cold vanilla latte and one red velvet cake?” you nodded and ringed up his order. your employees helping out to make the drink and also packing the cake into a box.
“would you like 1 fork to share with your significant other?”
“I don’t have a significant other.” he says. the air felt still, a clear tension between you two that causes your staff to start gossiping and moving over to the staff room.
“oh.”
“I divorced her a year later into our contractual marriage.” jake explains.
you didn’t know why it made you at ease and why he needed to tell you this. it was none of your business.
“alright, then I’ll just put one fork for you-” you reached to placed the fork into the bag.
“layla misses you.” jake says. you freeze. ah layla, the ever so cute puppy. she’s definitely not a puppy anymore, she would probably be an adult now. a grown dog. “I miss you.”
“there is no point of saying that. we never started anything and you got married to your childhood sweetheart.” you bitterly say.
“I already said I divorced her and I only loved you truly.”
“jake, let’s not talk about this when people are here.”
“then.” he grabs your hand (whilst also grabbing his drink and cake) “let’s go somewhere private.”
“w-what?” and so jake drags you somewhere secluded but still somewhere in public considering he didn’t want to look like some serial killer. despite him holding a cup of latte and a box of red velvet cake.
“let’s clear the air now. I love you.” jake doesn’t waste a single second.
“you can’t just say that after 5 years of me not seeing you.” you say.
“I can and I will. I love you and I want to be by your side till the very end. I never liked her, I was forced to get married because of my fucking dad. He’s the worst.”
“you don’t have to explain. there is no point.”
“what do you mean there is no point?! (name), i fucking love you. I got divorce from her because I didn’t love her, I love you and only you.”
“stop talking nonsense. you should go back.”
“there is no going back, you’re my home and my safety. I can’t leave you anymore.”
“jake.”
“please.” jake begs. it looked too pitiful. his eyes filled with tears just brimming and ready to fall. “I can’t lose you again…” his voice was shaky, this was the first time you saw jake being vulnerable.
did you want to possibly get hurt again?
yes
you were dumb enough to continue to love him.
“sim jaeyun, you asshole.” you had whacked his chest and cried in his arms. “why do you have to be so mean to me.” you sobbed out.
murmurs and apologies were just simply said to each other. once again, sim jaeyun never fails to appear into your life again. he was a virus…
a good virus.

Batshit Soulmates: Epilogue
Here it is. The end of an era. I struggled mightily with this one because I was so focused on canon that I forgot that I'm a writer and I can do what I want.
Once I got over myself the story just flowed so well it was done in two weeks.
But as I said last week, I'm a little mean to you in this. Spoiler under the cut.
In Medias Res| Prologue|Pt 1|Pt 2|Pt 3|Pt 4|Pt 5|Pt 6|Pt 7|Pt 8| Pt 9|
This ends the way season four does only with all the allies together not just some of them.
****
Nancy, Robin, and Dustin all returned to Steve’s house to make sure Eddie was safe.
Steve told Eddie that his uncle knew he was alive and would get into contact soon.
Eddie nearly cried in relief. “Thank you, Stevie.”
Then a car pulled up at that exact moment. Then of all things a pizza truck. Steve pushed Eddie into a nearby bathroom and looked out the window.
Out of the pizza truck hopped out both Byers boys, Mike, and the driver, a long haired native boy in a Hawaiian shirt. Then Joyce, Murray, and a very much alive Hopper exited the car.
And Steve’s heart nearly burst. He quickly ushered them all inside. His street had a lot of empty houses since the earthquake, the rich having somewhere else to go, but he didn’t trust the ones that remained.
Everyone was hugging everyone else. Jonathan and Nancy, El and Hopper. Joyce and Will. Everyone was safe. Max and the Sinclairs weren’t there, but they were safe too.
Robin, Steve and Eddie on the sidelines feeling happy that they were all reunited at last.
The first thing everyone did was tell their stories. El started, then the Byers, then Joyce and Murray, Hopper next, Steve and Dustin, then Nancy and Robin.
There was just so much to do.
“He’s still alive,” El said, “I couldn’t kill him. He hurt Max and I couldn’t leave her. I couldn’t leave her and the bastard survived.”
Joyce scooped her up into her arms and rocked her back and forth, gently. “You did the right thing, sweetheart. Max is alive because of you.”
“We’re going to have to find a place to stash Hopper and El until this blows over,” Nancy said. “They can’t stay here, it’s already a risk with Eddie being here. But at least with him, Steve can claim truemate status.”
The heads of all the people who hadn’t been in Hawkins turned to Steve in shock.
“Eddie is your truemate?” Mike wailed. He sat down and put his head in his hands. “Of course he is. Fuck that makes too much sense.”
Steve could only agree, honestly.
Eddie put his arm around his waist and pressed a kiss to his cheek. “I didn’t think so at first, but clearly the universe is smarter than we are.”
Dustin scoffed. “I think that could be said for most of the universe’s population, too.”
Both Eddie and Steve knocked off his hat together.
Robin cackled. “Hey, kids. If Steve’s the mom, then you all have a new step-dad!”
Joyce and Hopper chuckled but everyone else groaned.
Nancy tapped her foot irritated. “Can we get back on to the topic at hand, namely finding a place to put Hopper and El so the government doesn’t find them?”
“My cabin is in pretty shit shape,” Hopper admitted. “But I think if we all work together, we can make it livable again for me and Jane.”
Steve nodded. “That should work. No one found El when she was there before, so they should be safer there.”
“Just not everyone show up at once,” Joyce warned. “Too many people coming and going will alert others.”
Everyone agreed, but as they piled out of Steve’s house the sky lit up in red storm clouds. Ash fell upon Hawkins and ground trembled.
Everyone stopped on Steve’s lawn looking up at the sky, knowing Vecna had finally made his move.
The Upside Down was bleeding into the top world.
The war had begun.
****
I want to thank everyone for coming long with me on this ride. It's been fun!

AITA for killing my best friend’s girlfriend?
Wait. Hear me out. My best friend ( 28M ) had gone through a rough patch and was admitted to an Asylum. For six months I ( 32M ) would visit him everyday and give him gifts and talk with him. He’s the only friend I have and in that period we grew close. I’m a man of power, and people only respect me out of fear or need for protection, except him who genuinely likes me even when I hated him at first. Using my connections, I got him out of the asylum and gave him a job in my mayoral campaign and helped him readjust. Through it, he showed me that people can like me and vote for me in a clean way ( even if he had to go behind my back and disobey my orders to do so ), and when I won the election, one of my ex-staff tried to kill me and he saved my life! He even nearly got himself killed. he said he’d do anything for me. Eve since my mother’s death, I never thought someone would actually care about me this much. So, I fell in love with him. He’s my one true love, and following my late mother’s advice, I should run with it. Except I was shy and insecure and kept balking whenever I tried to confess to him. When he told me he admires me, I finally found the courage to tell him, but asked him to dinner where we live so I could confess to him.
he went out to bring wine and didn’t come back because he met a woman ( ??F ) who looked exactly like his dead ex-girlfriend ( which he killed in that rough patch in his life ) and fell in love with her overnight. That’s ridiculous!
I met his new girlfriend and she was a sweet librarian. I told her about his precious stunt as a serial killer. Admittedly I wanted him for myself, but she was soft and sweet they couldn’t have lasted. My best friend would’ve killed her! But she apparently told my best friend that it’s alright and she trusts he changed now.
My best friend panicked about hurting her and I encouraged him to dump her, but he asked me to do that for him. It’s fine, really, I’m happy to end their doomed romance. I visited her to deliver her the news but she refused claiming she could show him he couldn’t hurt her! She wrote him a letter and my best friend went to dump her himself, but returned after spending the night at her place claiming he’s all fixed now and now she can’t hurt her.
So, I cut the breaks in her car and she had an unfortunate accident :)

Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was 2:30 AM and you sat up with a hitch in your breath, you rubbed the sleep out of your eyes before letting out a small yelp. You clutched your bump as you felt a sharp pain run through your ribs. You turn to the side to look at Carmen who was sleeping, you started to panic before getting up slowly. As soon as you stood up you felt a liquid dripping down making you gasp. You looked down and saw your sweatpants damp. Your water broke. You immediately waddled to Carmen’s side of the bed and shook him awake.
“Carm, baby, wake up.” You whispered while shaking him awake, he stirred and groaned before opening his eyes and looking at you.
“What? What happened?” Carmen said in a tired voice while rubbing his eyes. You felt tears burning in your eyes.
“M-my water broke.” You said through hiccups while holding your bump. Carmen’s eyes widened as he sat up immediately getting off the bed while cupping your face.
“Oh shit, um- okay, it’s gonna be okay baby. Did the contractions start?” Carmen soothed you while cupping your face and running his thumb over your cheek. You nodded as you sniffled.
“I-I’m scared Carmen.” The tears were falling now making Carmen frown. He wiped the tears away while bringing you closer to him. He kissed your forehead while rubbing your back to calm you down.
“Baby, it’s gonna be okay. You’re gonna be okay, and the baby is gonna okay. Trust me. Everything is gonna be okay, hell, we’re gonna have a baby. We’re gonna have a girl.” Carmen said while lifting your chin so you could look up at him. He gave you a smile making you smile a bit as you wiped away the tears. You took a deep breath to calm yourself before nodding at Carmen.
“I love you so much Carmen. I’m surprised you’re not the one panicking.” You said with a light chuckle making Carmen roll his eyes.
“I can’t also be panicking babe, then we’ll both be in deep shit.” You and Carmen laughed before you let out a hiss while clutching your baby bump.
“Argh, shit. Okay, I think we should get going.” You said through your teeth while a contraction hit you. Carmen nodded before walking you towards the edge of the bed to sit. He quickly got you a new pair of sweats to wear before helping you put them on. He then quickly got the baby bag that has been prepared since the day you both found out about the big news.
“Okay babe I’m gonna start the car, then I’ll help you down the stairs okay?” He said as he grabbed the car keys and put on his shoes. You nodded as you started the breathing exercises, Carmen quickly put the bag in the car and started up the car before running back in the house to get you.
Carmen helped you into your slippers before helping you up from the bed. He took his time helping you down the stairs and taking you outside to the car. He helped you into the car by lifting you slowly and buckling your seatbelt. You couldn’t help but smile at that.
“Carmy, I can buckle myself in.” You said as Carmen buckled himself in getting ready to drive. Carmen took your hand into his as he kissed your knuckles.
“I know you can, but I rather do everything for you today.” He said with a smile as he leaned over to peck your lips. “You ready to have a kid?” You smiled as you nodded.
“I’m ready.” Carmen smiled with you before pecking your lips one more time before driving off.
The whole car ride to the hospital you felt the contractions hitting you like a truck. Carmen let you squeeze the shit out his hand as he soothed you with words and aspirations. “It’s okay babe, we’re 3 minutes away.” He kept kissing your hand helping you as you whined and kept on doing your breathing exercises.
“I-it hurts.” You whimpered.
“I know baby, it’s okay.” Carmen quickly pulled into the hospital parking lot and quickly parked in a random spot before unbuckling himself and quickly getting out of the car to help you. He grabbed the bag before opening your side door, he unbuckled you out before grabbing both your hands.
“Easy babe, gentle, that’s it.” He took his time with you as you both walked into the entrance of the hospital. It was quiet and peaceful.
You got checked in and a nurse immediately came with a wheelchair for you and walked you guys to a room. Carmen held your hand the entire time. Even helping you get into your gown.
It felt like hours went by as the nurses got you situated with everything. You were exhausted and it wasn’t even time to push yet. Carmen texted Richie, the others, and even your parents that you were getting ready to give birth soon. You felt a headache coming on and it was stressing you out.
“Carmy?” You said in a weak voice, Carmen immediately went by your side as he ran his fingers through your hair.
“What’s wrong baby?” He said as he grabbed the cup of ice chips by you, you opened your mouth as you let the ice cool you down. You immediately started to cry. Carmen frowned as you sobbed.
“Baby, what’s wrong? What’s frustrating you? Hm?” Carmen kissed your forehead while wiping the tears away.
“I’m just scared. I-I’m scared about the birth, I-I’m scared about being a mother. W-what if I’m not good at being a m-mom?” You said through hiccups, Carmen frowned more with his eyebrows knitted together.
“Baby… how could you say those things about yourself? You don’t think I’m scared as well being a dad? It’s a lot to take in and you have every right to feel this way. I know you will be the best mother out there. We will learn together, you’re not alone on this y’know?”
You nodded as Carmen held your hand and you running your fingers through his curly locks. Carmen sighed before giving you a loving kiss making you sigh lovingly. He rested his forehead on yours as you two shared this moment together.
“Y’know I feel like she’s gonna have your temper.” That made Carmen laugh as he rolled his eyes playfully, you smirked as Carmen rubbed your bump.
“If she’s gonna have my temper, then she’s definitely gonna take her time with everything like her mother does.” You playfully smacked his shoulder as he laugh while continuing to rub your bump.
Hours went by and the contractions were getting worse. You were nine meters dilated one meter away from giving birth. Carmen didn’t leave your side the whole time. He wiped away the tears and sweat, feeding you ice chips, and soothing you as you held his hand.
“It’s almost time babe, you’re doing amazing.” He kissed your knuckles as you whined and groaned.
“I just want this baby out of me!!!!” You screeched feeling more frustrated. You did get the epidural because the pain was intense. Out of the nowhere the Doctor came in with a smile.
“Good News Mr. And Mrs. Berzatto, it’s time.” Hearing that made you sigh in relief but now it was the hard part of the whole pregnancy. You looked up at Carmen with a wobble in your lips, Carmen kissed your forehead as he whispered, “It’s gonna be okay.” The doctor and nurses were getting everything ready having you sit up lightly and having your legs propped up.
“I’ll be right here babe, I promise. You can the squeeze the shit out of my hand, I don’t care. I’m not leaving your side.” You nodded with a watery smile before grabbing his hand while a nurse held your other hand with a rag.
“Are you ready Mrs.Berzatto?” The doctor asked you making you take a deep breath before nodding.
“I’m ready.”
“You’re doing great momma, you’re almost there.” The doctor said as you screamed out another painful hard push.
“Aghhh!!!! Shit!! I can’t do it!” You said through broken sobs and your breathing was getting harder. You squeezed Carmen’s hand and the nurses hand as you shut your eyes just wanting this to be over.
“You got this baby, you’re doing such a good job I promise you she’s almost here.” The nurse ran the rag over your sweaty forehead as Carmen pecked your forehead a few times while running a hand down you neck to calm you down.
You laid back as you tried to get your breathing in control, you let out heavy pants as Carmen kept feeding you the ice chips.
“You can do it momma, trust me just a few more pushes her head is almost out!” The doctor told you as you took in a big inhale through your nose before nodding.
“Okay, ready…. And push!” You pushed with all your might as the doctor counted down. Your head was pounding and your body was burning.
“Argh!! Jesus fuck!” Carmen helped spread your leg more as he continued to soothe you.
“You’re doing so good babe.” He whispered in your ear.
“One more push!”
You let out a big sigh through your nose, your whole body was shaking as the tears fell. You let out a scream of agony before the doctor announced “she’s out!” You felt relieved.
You laid back down as you tried to catch your breath, feeling like you ran a marathon. You then heard the cries of your baby girl. You froze as you looked at Carmen through tears. Carmen already had tears running down his face as he helped cut the chord. You saw the doctor held up the baby for you to see. You smiled through the tears as they placed her on your bare chest. You let out a sob as you looked down at the bundle of joy in your arms who was crying.
“Oh my gosh, she’s here. Carmen she’s here.” You said as more tears fell, Carmen cupped you face as he kissed you. He wiped the tears away as he smiled.
“She’s here, gosh you did so good baby. I’m so proud of you.” He kissed you again as you both looked down at the child who had her light blue eyes open. You both smiled as she looked at the both of you.
“Look at those beautiful eyes, oh my goodness. You’re so beautiful.” You whispered as you ran a finger on her cheek, Carmen rubbing her small back with a thumb. She let out a yawn making you and Carmen chuckle.
“Already exhausted.” You said with a playful eye roll making Carmen chuckle.
“Do we have a name for the precious one?” The doctor said with a clipboard as the nurses took her to clean her up. The other nurses helping you. You and Carmen looking at each other with a smile.
“Kennedy Jane Berzatto.”
Hours went by with you passing out from the long process. You squinted your eyes open to see Carmen on the couch with his shirt off and the small bare baby on his chest. He was doing skin to skin making you smile.
“Can’t believe you’re finally here Kenzie. I’m so happy to have you here in my arms. I love you and your mother with all my heart. Carmen whispered to the small child who was sleeping. She had her two fingers wrapped around his pointer finger. He hummed gently as he snuggled her to his chest.
You felt tears slide down your cheeks as you smiled at the sight as you watched them have a moment.

here’s a short Noah imagine i scrabbled in my notes app while rotting in bed, i’m wondering if i should write more.
…you have more pieces of me than the desert has sand
and i have less pieces of you than i can hold in my hand…
I knew we weren’t dating. I knew we were never gonna be together officially, so what was the point of fighting over it? What was the point of this whole thing, actually? I wasn’t his to claim and he, for sure, was not mine to call. He was gone almost 300 days of the year. He had gigs, festivals, signings, award shows, record meetings. And I had a 9 to 5 job. I went home, cooked, cleaned, went on vacation sometimes but my routine was way different from his.
So why were we sitting in his car, at 2 in the morning, fighting over “labels”?
“I’m not about to argue with a man who doesn’t even know what he wants.”
“Do you hear yourself? I don’t know what I want? Me? Is that how we’re turning the narrative now?”
“No, Noah. The narrative’s been the same this whole time. Just admit that you don’t want a relationship and we can call it a day and I can finally go home and sleep, cause I have work tomorrow.”
My eyes were burning and so were my cheeks. I was flushed with anger and I could already feel the tears coming.
“I never, NOT ONCE, said that I do not want a relationship. I am INCAPABLE of maintaining one. You wanna miss me for a month straight, see me for a weekend, travel the whole world to spend a day, maximum two with me in between shows? You want me calling you in the middle of the night, waking you up just because where I’m at it’s midday and it’s the only possible time for me to call you? You want to put us in a position where my trust will be questioned all the time? And you’ll be anxious if you see me with another woman just because I HAVE to work with her? You wanna go through all of this?”
“Seems like you don’t want to, so what’s the point of having this conversation? Please, just take me home.”
I couldn’t contain myself anymore and I felt the tears streaming down my face. I was starting to shake but I didn’t want to make a bigger scene than what this conversation had already turned to. I was spent. And hurt and tired. And he was just sitting in the driver seat, looking at me, not knowing what to do. He looked so pathetic, it was insane how much I allowed myself to fall in love with him. He was just. a. stupid. man. He never knew how to react properly and most of the time it was funny watching him struggle to pick the right words, but he was always big on physical contact, so he’d just pull me in his arms until I stop crying. He didn’t do that now though. He was just staring at me, blankly. I turned to face the window and put my legs up on the seat, curling into a little ball.
I heard the engine start and the radio came back to life with the most gut wrenching song Spotify could pick. God, I hate that shared playlist. And I hate myself for falling for him.
