Hii!! I was wondering if you could write how Tecchou would be with an s/o who also has a really strong sense of justice like him🫶🫶 It can be headcanons or anything tbh however you feel like writing it
So many Tecchou requests I love it. I wrote a scenario cause I think....I got it....ima be real I'm a bit of a dumb dumb idiot and just go with the idea I have so this might not be what you wanted. Sorry pookie cakes ( >Д<;)
Scenario/Headcannons: Tecchou with someone who has a strong sense of justice like him <3
Tumblr media
Scenario
You were absolutely fuming. Furious. Angry. Enraged. Pissed.
There were a lot of words to describe how you were feeling.
The job you had come to do was already done - you and Teruko worked well. You were glad to have worked with her as well since she gave you the chance to burn everything to the ground.
It was one of the most horrific crime scenes you had come across in your career as a hunting dog. There was no need for evidence, and thank god since you didn't feel the need to give any of them mercy.
But you were still angry, to say the least. What else was there to do? Torture their souls in the afterlife?
You wish you could.
But you were left pacing around headquarters instead, trying to walk off the burning anger you felt. There might have been a circle in the field from how long you were pacing, trying to get rid of the images burned in your mind - it didn't really help, if anything, it riled you up more. You still had the rage.
The guards in the area didn't even want to be around you. It was left barren since your entrance. You didn't think more on why it was so desolate though, you just decided that you felt comfortable enough to start punching the air and screaming curses, as if you could physically fight away your anger, the pain and strain in your muscles making it almost feel less.
This went on for a while. It probably could have gone on for the whole day, if anyone was asked.
Although that was until you felt someone grab you from behind, their arms wrapped around your waist tightly. Even in your panicked struggle, you were no better than a flailing tube man. You tried to kick your attacker in the ribs with your boot, grab his hair - but the man wouldn't budge.
"Y/n."
You craned your neck around to look at Tecchou, who had the audacity to step into the middle of your meltdown. Your hand was still pulling at his long hair, but his face portrayed nothing - just a calm, dead stare.
You, however, felt anything but calm, right now.
"Leave me alone! Can't you tell I'm busy!"
You had no idea what you were doing, but you didn't want to be around him when you felt the way you did. You had to force yourself to pull your hand of his hair lest you scalp him in your fury.
"It's ok to be angry."
"I'm not-"
You tried to breathe in, calming yourself. Even if you denied it outloud, it was an obvious lie. Especially to yourself.
"I'm not angry."
You felt Tecchou take a deep breath from behind you, his ribs moving against your spine. He pressed his brow between your shoulder blades, adding a gentle pressure.
"It's ok. I'd be angry too, if I saw what you did."
He let the silence sit for a moment.
You placed your hands on his forearms, keeping a firm grip on them. It grounded you as you stared at the grass below you.
"I won't force you to tell me the details, Teruko told me enough. I know the report is going to be horrible."
The grass below you was nearly completely flat. At some parts, the roots were kicked out of the ground, fluffy dirt surrounding them. Looking at your hands, you could see how red they were compared to Tecchou's tanned skin.
"But Y/n..."
His grip became just a little tighter, your diaphragm feeling the squeeze. You pressed against his skin tightly, trying to gain leverage against it, as your feet dangled off the ground.
"I think it's really great that you care so much about bringing justice there, even if it meant going somewhere so horrible. I'm proud of you."
"Oh, Tecchou..."
You turned your head and body back around the best you could to see the man, who was still pressing himself onto you.
"Can you put me down? I think I'm calmer now."
He obliged, turning you to face him, his hands still on your chest, holding you now more gently, sure you wouldn't run.
His long hair was sticking closely to his forehead, hiding his brows, which furrowed in a way that you could tell he was thinking rather deeply about the words he was going to say next.
"Sorry if I worried you, Tecchou. It was just upsetting. Shouldn't have lost my cool like that, though. The job is tough, of course I'm going to see terrible shit like that."
"No. It's not that. I think it's great that you're upset."
"Really? It's really childish of me."
Tecchou shook his head, the strands on his forehead stubbornly sticking close to his thick eyelashes. He leaned in a little closer, his eyes leveling near yours.
"I think its good. It means you're human. You still believe in justice and care about people. You should be proud of that."
His golden eyes were staring in at yours, in such an intense way it made you want to look away. You instead took your hand and brushed away the hair on his face, watching as he carefully kept his eyes closed to protect his eyes.
"Have you thought about cutting your hair? It seems like a hazard, doesn't it?"
Tecchou smiled a little, reaching down to your waist to pull you closer to him. You were dodging the conversation, but the way you started to nervously brush through his longer hair strands told him that you heard his words.
Tumblr media
Ima be SO real had no idea how to end this I hope it's good, I love soft Tecchou I write him like the big dick fanfiction man we all deserve

an: this isn’t the scenario i was talking about earlier, but it is something i’ve been super excited about. just a cute little fluffy one shot. also someone please get me to finish writing san and eve’s first date😭😭 im begging. feedback and reblogs are musch appreciated💐
eve’s masterlist
Tumblr media
“Do you have the materials?” Jinki asked, opening the door for Eve.
She tapped the tote bag she had slung over her shoulder. “Everything’s here. I came prepared.”
She entered the practice room, immediately going to the bench at the back of the room. She emptied her bag onto the bench, quickly organising the contents. Jinki sat down next to her, widening his eyes.
“Isn’t this too much?” He asked.
She shrugged. “I don’t know. I asked my hairstylist what I’d need and I just brought everything she said.”
He nodded, watching as she continued organising the hair products.
“But–” she looked up from her work– “where are the other ahjussi’s?” She looked around the empty practice room.
“They went to a café,” he answered.
“All three of them?”
“I don’t understand it either.”
Eve shook her head, going back to work. She finished up a few seconds later.
“Okay. I’m ready for you.” She placed a pillow on the floor for him to sit on. He moved to sit, shifting so he was comfortable.
“What hairstyle are you going to do?” Jinki asked as Eve started brushing his hair.
“Pigtails,” Eve answered. “Simple and cute.”
Jinki reached behind him to touch the hairdryer. “Then what’s this for?” He asked with a laugh.
Eve huffed. “I don’t know. Unnie said I should have a hairdryer just in case. So I brought it just in case!”
“Okay, okay.” Jinki nodded. “Don’t get too worked up.”
Eve playfully rolled her eyes. She picked up a spray bottle filled with water. “Unnie said it’s good to work with damp hair,” she explained as she sprayed Jinki’s hair.
“Did you not use water when you did your hair for dance?” He asked.
She nodded her head. “I did, but I’d also use hair spray when I needed to get rid of wisps.”
She swapped the spray bottle for a rat-tail comb, sectioning out his hair. Taking one of the hair ties off her wrist, she messily tied the bottom section to keep out of her way. She picked up the comb again, sectioning his hair down the middle.
“Is this the centre of your head?” Eve asked, holding the comb over Jinki’s forehead.
Jinki thought for a second. “A little to the left.” Eve moved her hand half a centimetre. “That’s it!”
“Okay.” Eve redid the middle part, trying her hardest to keep the line straight. She messily tied the right section off so she could do the left section. “How’s rehearsal’s going?” She asked.
Jinki hummed. “No complaints. It’s nice to be with all the members again.”
“Taemin ahjussi has started being a menace, right?”
Jinki chuckled. “It took him five minutes to start being himself.”
Eve giggled as she tied the left section. “Yeoksi, my partner in crime is back.”
“You haven’t seen him yet, have you?”
She shook her head as she admired her work. “I’ve been busy,” she said.
She untied the right section as they continued talking and brushed it out. Eve did her best to make sure the pigtails were at equal heights on Jinki’s head. As she started tying his hair, the door opened and the other SHINee members entered.
“Nabi!” Taemin exclaimed, getting ready to run to Eve.
“Wait!” She shouted as she finished tying Jinki’s hair. She used one of the brushes to brush away some of the wisps then handed him a mirror so he could see himself.
“It looks so cute,” Jinki gushed. “Thank you!”
“You’re welcome.” Eve packed away her things then stood up. “Okay continue,” she told Taemin.
“Nabi!” He exclaimed again, running to her.
“Taemin!” She exclaimed as she also ran to him. They met in the middle of the practice room in a hug. “Never leave ever again,” she said when they pulled apart. “These people are so boring,” Eve complained, throwing Kibum and Minho brief glances.
“Yah!” Minho whined.
Taemin nodded in understanding. “It must’ve been so hard. I’m the only fun one!”
“Yes! They kept being boring like ‘You can’t do that, it’s dangerous’ and ‘That is almost definitely illegal.’”
“I’m back now, you can have fun again,” Taemin comforted, patting Eve’s head. “You’re a redhead,” he pointed out, playing with Eve’s hair.
“You’re a blonde,” she said, touching his hair.
“Did you do Jinki hyung’s hair?” Kibum asked, fiddling with Jinki’s pigtails.
“When did you get over there?” Taemin asked, pointing at his member. “I thought you were still at the door.”
“I walked here,” Kibum deadpanned.
Eve nodded her head. “I did his hair. He grew it out and I had to take my opportunity before he cuts it,” she said, her voice breaking off at the end as she pretended to get emotional.
“Do my hair too,” Minho said as he walked to the bench. He started unpacking Eve’s bag. “Why is there a hairdryer here?”
Eve walked to Minho. “My hairstylist said I should bring it just in case, so I brought it just in case,” she explained. She pointed at the pillow Jinki was still sitting on. “Sit please.”
Minho pushed Jinki off the pillow, causing the older man to groan. Jinki pushed himself up to a standing position, softly kicking Minho to the side as he walked to Taemin.
“What have you been up to since I was away?” Taemin asked Eve as he and Jinki started messing around.
Eve picked up the spray bottle as she answered, “I had comebacks with ITZY, filmed a drama, did a variety show with Jinki ahjussi, had my solo debut–”
“Nice!” Taemin cheered.
“–fainted on stage–”
“Not nice.”
“–was on hiatus, came back from hiatus, went on tour and that’s about it. Oh, I also started a variety show, which reminds me–” she pulled Minho back by his hair so he was looking up at her– “you guys need to come on it when you have your comeback, please and thank you.” She released his hair before picking up the rat-tail comb to section off his hair.
“That’s So Evie?” Minho asked.
Eve hummed. “Most of the comments under Jinki oppa and Kibum oppa’s videos are asking to have SHINee on the show.”
“Of course we’ll go,” Kibum said as he sipped his coffee. “Just talk to our team about it.”
Eve paused as she tied the bottom half of Minho’s hair. “Have your comeback first.”
Minho laughed as Kibum responded, “I’m just saying! For when we do come back.”
“Okay,” Eve said as she parted Minho’s hair down the middle. “Why did all three of you need to go buy coffee?”
“Key didn’t trust me to get his order right,” Minho answered.
“And they both didn’t trust me to get their orders right,” Taemin added.
Eve continued working on Minho’s hair as they all talked. She smiled as Taemin told them about his cats’ newest habits. When Eve was done with Minho’s hair, she tapped his head.
“Thank you for the service,” Minho said as he observed his hair.
“I take cash or card,” Eve told him, holding her hand out. Minho laughed as he shook his head.
“I’ll pay you later.”
Eve nodded, stretching her arms out. “You better. Otherwise I’ll report you.” She looked at Kibum and Taemin, who were lying next to each other on the floor. “Next customer?”
Taemin shook his head. “My hair isn’t long enough.”
“Neither is Minho’s and look at him.” Eve pointed at Minho, who was comparing his hair to Jinki.
“I’ll grow my hair out and then you can do it,” Taemin said.
“Okay. Key?”
“I’ll also do it next time,” Kibum said with a sigh.
“Cool.” Eve packed up her things. “Can my clients pose for a picture?” She asked, pulling her phone out of her sweatpants pocket.
“Yes hairstylist-nim,” Jinki responded. He and Minho stood side by side with their arms wrapped around each other as they posed for Eve’s picture. They then ended up taking selfies with all the members.
“Okay, I have to go now,” Eve said after Minho placed her down on the floor from where she was perched on his shoulders for the last picture. “I was graciously given two hours to be here and disturb your schedule, so bye.” She hugged all the members goodbye before fetching her bag from the bench.
“Bye Nabi!” Jinki waved as Kibum walked her to the door.
“Bye. I love you!” She said, making a finger heart over her shoulder as she left.
“We love you too!” Taemin shouted.

If your requests are still open, can you share fluffy headcanons with 1994 Doc Ock and a shy reader? Thank you!
I really went and rubbed my hands together like a fly after reading this! Yes! Requests are open, feel free to send me some Otto scenarios or something else Otto related and I'll dissect it as best as I can :) Hope these feed the Otto brain worms, the 1994 cartoon has a special place in my heart 💖💖💖
He'd be so gentle with you. Always holding your hand or the small of your back when you go somewhere! Talk about how it's still pretty cold outside and the guy will throw his gigantic coat over your shoulders. He'd probably rob a bank for you if you'd say you're out of money or something, nothing but the best for you- even if you don't ask for anything!
I'd also like to believe his gaze would visibly soften whenever he sees you. You'd probably be able to tease him about how happy he always seems when you enter his sight! He'd probably cough a little and avoid the look you give him, saying that it's just because he actually gets to relax for once when you're with him but the new shade of red on his face betrays him.
Forehead kisses!!!!! Oh my god, so many forehead kisses. He knows exactly how to make you blush and simple little acts like that are his favorite way of doing so. The way he'd brush your hair to the side with his hand lingering at your cheek, a soft smile on his lips as he watches you and gently leans down to kiss you. He loves the way your eyes get big and how you slightly open your mouth to say something but no words come out. Lean your head against the hand cupping your cheek and he'll struggle with throwing his work away for the day, just to spend more time with you. It's amazing how soft you make his heart.
You'd definitely sometimes catch him staring at you. It's a habit Otto tries to get rid off because of how easily you notice it but he can't help himself. The shades he wears make it easy to hide his half lidded eyes but the gentle smile often betrays him. The man is in love and daydreaming about your future together while watching you do some random task or something is his guilty pleasure.
Imagine accidentally getting into his crime business and meeting the rest of the insidious six. Otto would go guard dog mode, your shadow has literally been replaced by your bf and he won't back off until you're away from his colleagues and the storm of chaos that seems to follow them! His usually polite attitude is gone the second one of them should try to mess with you. His personal life and "work life" mixing is something the guy tries to avoid as much as possible, especially if that includes you! You won't hear the end of it once you're home, Otto would quickly ask if you somehow got hurt or if you're feeling okay! His panicked expression only softens once you grab his face with both of your hands and gently tell him that you're fine. He'd probably look a bit like a sad puppy before you throw your arms around him and give him a big hug.
He knows how to get you flustered and he loves it. It's all fun and games, he'd compliment your hair and tell you how pretty your outfit is with that little smirk on his face! An actuator would gently circle your waist while he gives you a quick kiss before asking if you're free for tonight. The smile on his face gets bigger the second your eyes dart to the side while you try to stutter an answer. He can really be a tease sometimes!
This one might seem a bit out of character but....snuggles. Now hear me out with this one! Otto's inventions often keep him busy, he stays up late and wakes up early to work on whatever kind of thing he thought of now and that means he doesn't have much time for anything else. Unless you just walk up to him and sit on his lap to cuddle. His soft spot for you is way too big for him to tell you that he's busy right now, he'd probably melt the second you nuzzle your face against his chest. It's amazing how much of an effect you have on him since one wouldn't expect him to become putty so easily but you're the most precious thing in his life, especially after everything that had happened and no matter what, he always loves spending time with you and feeling the comfort you give him.

Maverick x Female!Reader: The Phantom’s Love
Trigger Warnings: angst with a happy ending, eventual fluff, mentions of murder (reader accused), mercenary work, enemies to lovers, physical altercations, broken limbs, sedation, previously unrequited love, emotional venting
Tumblr media
Erik Thorn, known by his new call sign Maverick, was your biggest enemy. He had been chasing you for years, and just when you thought you had escaped, he found you again. It’s like the man was a phantom; always on your trail but never visible until the last second. You’d gone AWOL at some point, because you had been accused of a murder you didn’t commit. And you only ran away because you knew exactly who it was that did it long ago, but they had gotten rid of themselves before you could even say it was them. Now you were constantly on the run as a mercenary for hire, taking jobs to assassinate people who posed a threat to those who cannot protect themselves.
It was unknown to you too, whether or not you were also acquitted of the crime you did not commit. All you knew was that you needed to run.
Quickly trying to pack your things to leave once you found out that Erik was in the area, you scramble across the house. You apologize for having to leave immediately after your work was done, but the people that housed you were more than happy that you even took the job. “It’s nothing. Look, hold onto the payment for me. My own phantom has caught up with me and I have to go. I’ll be back in a few months. I know you didn’t have enough now but you can save what you have until I come back. Take care of each other.” you say. “We will. Thank you for your work. There’s a hidden path just behind our home; take it and run away.” the man of the house said.
You give him a nod, bidding him a farewell in his native tongue as you zipped up your bags. You pull your balaclava and ballistic mask over your face and quickly exit the house. It was nightfall already, but you knew damn well that wouldn’t matter to Erik. And you were right, because once you reached the hidden path the man had told you about, Erik was standing right there. “Leaving so soon?” he sneered, staring at you intensely. “Get the fuck out of my way Erik. I’m done with you, and everyone that’s ever accused me of something I didn’t do.” you say. “Maybe if you just stopped running and came with me, it would be all over. I could tell you about everything that happened after you ran away.” he said.
You simply glare at him, and he chuckled once he saw your eyes narrowed. “You know exactly what’s gonna happen if I go.” you say. “It’s not going to.” Erik said coldly. “And how do you know, hm?” you ask, dropping your bag to the floor. “Because before I disappeared, I got you acquitted,” he said. Your eyes now widened, heart beating fast in your chest and thundering in your ears. “You ran off before you could even go to trial. I worked so hard to get it. And then I vanished, but the entire time, I was keeping tabs on you. All the evidence I gathered for the murder of your colleague never amounted to anything against you.” he continued.
You get into a defensive position, one Erik knew all too well, and he sighed. “I knew that wasn’t gonna work.” he said. Erik got into a defensive position as well and for just a moment, the two of you stared at each other. The moon was shining brightly on the two of you, highlighting the best of Erik’s features. His nose, albeit different from most you had seen, was his most prominent feature. The way his scruffy little facial hair fit his face was perfect, and his blue eyes shimmered like the stars in the sky.
You hated that he was this fucking pretty.
Finally breaking the slight standoff, you throw a punch at him, only for him to dodge it and kick at your legs. He managed to actually kick you hard enough to nearly dislocate your knee and you growled softly at this. You kick at him this time and Erik takes this as a chance to grab your leg, twisting it hard enough to break your ankle and make it so you wouldn’t be able to walk. You cry out, managing to get out of his grasp but the moment your foot hit the ground, your now broken ankle folded and you collapsed. Attempting to crawl away, you drag yourself using the strength of your elbows, but Erik wasn’t going to let you get away.
Erik sat on your back and pinned you down. “I didn’t want it to come to this, but you’ve left me no choice. Y/N L/N, callsign Y/C, you are now in custody of Team Rainbow.” he said. There’s then a prick at your neck, and you feel your body beginning to heat up a bit too much. “What…the fuck did you just do to me..?” you ask, speech slurred. “You’ll find out soon,” he spat. Venom laced his voice, and it was the first time you had ever heard such malice in his voice. “Now sleep.”
And that was the last thing you heard.
Months would then come to pass after your detainment, and once you were acquitted for going AWOL, you were then set free. Packing your things up, ready to leave once more and head back to the family that still owes you money, you’re then stopped by Erik. “Already leaving?” he asked. “I’d rather be away from you. You’ve been nothing but a pain in my fucking as for years, especially now.” you seethe, continuing to pack. “Will you at least let me talk to you?” he asked again. His voice sounded desperate, and it made you stop all your actions. “What do you have to say then?” you ask. “You know I still love you, right? I’ve never let go of the feelings I confessed to you long ago. You were the first person I had ever cared about romantically, and you’ve only ever hated me. What did I do wrong?”
Your body tensed and you wince softly at the words that exited his mouth. When the two of you first met, there was a sudden spark between the two of you, but once you were accused of murder, you ran away and nothing ever came of it. And once you found out that Erik was chasing you to take you back, you grew to hate him. He was an inconvenience, but you couldn’t help but have some feelings for him.
It felt wrong to be in love with Erik.
The tension between the both of you became thicker than it had ever been. Suddenly, Erik grabbed you and turned you around, bringing your body right up against his. You gasp, looking up at his eyes. There’s a deep sorrow within them, possibly mixed in with some of the things he had seen back at his time in Kabul, and it just made you feel even worse for being so in love with him. “Say something…please…” Erik whispered. “I can’t…” you whisper back. “Yes you can…just tell me…” he whispered, lips now ghosting over yours. “I hate that I love you so fucking much…you were the only person in my life that gave a shit about me and I pushed you away…” you mumble.
Erik’s eyes softened a bit, and he gave you a chaste kiss. “We can fix this, right..? I…I want something with you…” he mumbled. You give him a nod, and he gives you a smile. “Good…but please come back this time, we need you here at Rainbow.” he said. “Oh come on, I’m just some mercenary for hire. You guys don’t need me.” you say. “On the contrary. Harry’s been discussing keeping you with us to keep you safe. We know you’ve got problems with dangerous people.” Erik said. “Well…I guess I’ll come back then. Promise this isn’t a ploy to get me killed and or go to prison?” you ask. “Trust me. That’s not going to happen. Not for as long as I’m alive.”

Little Miss Sunshine: Min Yoongi
Tumblr media
                               ●╭╮╭╮╭╮╭╮╭╮╭╮╭╮●
               Your poor father was accused of drug trafficking and 
              Min Yoongi takes it upon himself to remind you daily.
                                 ●╰╯╰╯╰╯╰╯╰╯╰╯╰╯●
Warnings: mentions of drugs, drug trafficking & alcohol, sexual tension, high school parties, cursing, it gets a little saucy towards the end, Jungkook touches his dick, very dirty filthy talk that begs for soap, slapping Min Yoongi across the face. 
It all started in 2019 when the police showed up at my door with a warrant for my dad. Perhaps the unluckiest man in history, my father became a suspect for a drug crime since he looked scarily like the man in the picture and had no solid alibi since the guy never left the house. It was so uncanny I thought he was pulling a fast one on us and I started to even doubt him.
It was funny really for everyone who knew him. Martin just the other day called me into the living room to get rid of a spider and he would happily drag anyone into a 4-hour conversation about why we should all go cordless.
It soon blew over and became a knee-slapping inside joke but my school soon caught wind of it and of course it had to be true...
And I had to be part of it.
"Hey Y/N I'm running on empty, hook me up?"
Jungkook smirks walking backwards so he can watch me squirm. He was a little shit that one, the youngest of the most popular group of guys in our school, most of them playing a significant role in the slow downfall of my high school career.
"Fuck off Jungkook, aren't you like 12?" I spit back to the infant, continuing to walk.
"I'm a whole lotta man sweetheart, you wanna take a look you give me a call," he teases, grabbing himself, biting his lip with a wink making a couple of girls fall into their lockers at the sight.
"Sure thing, I'll bring my telescope!"
And, when you'd outsmart them:
"Fucking bitch," Jungkook mutters in defeat, shaking his head and walking away.
Then it would be my turn to smirk.
· · ─────── ·𖥸· ─────── · ·
The library is meant to be a quiet place, a place of solitude, comfort, knowledge and ambition. It soon became my hideout since no one could disturb me here or even if they did, it would just be a whisper and I'd laugh because of how stupid someone whispering aggressively looks.
"There's my ray of sunshine."
Then Min Yoongi found me here. My soul falls further into my body as the blonde steps right in front of the book I was about to grab, quickly stepping back in fear of bumping noses or touching him in any way at all.
"Get out of the way, you're covering the book I need," I mutter impatiently, looking past him to see if I could maybe snatch it through his armpit or something.
Min Yoongi was the person I spent the most time with and that was concerning since he too made it his mission to make me as miserable as possible. Unlike the rest, I found myself thinking about what he said to me that day on the walk home and again just before I went to bed. I think it was because him pretending to actually enjoy my company hurt more than just throwing insults on the way to class.
He leans his blonde head on the shelf, hands tucked in his grey trouser pockets, looking down at me through his lashes like I was nothing.
"Yeah, that's kind of the whole point," he smiles warmly.
"What?"
"Well, I know you love looking at me so I thought I'd indulge you," Yoongi teases, leaving room for me to remember that one moment he caught me looking at him in class that he would never let me live down.
"It was literally 5 seconds, you had a booger," I continue mumbling showing how insignificant he was while browsing some other books of the same genre since his body was covering the one I actually need.
"Then why were you looking at my lips?"
I stop for a moment, struggling to defend myself when for once he was right. The hardest part about hating Min Yoongi was the fact that he was extremely attractive and he was my type- in fact, I was sure that the moment I first laid eyes on him was the moment my type was established.
Good looking smart asses with fluffy hair.
"Hard to tell what you're looking at when you're that ugly. Move it min," I warn him for the last time, grabbing a book and holding it up defensively to get my point across.
"Not until you treat me nicely," his voice is deeper and patronising, his accent coming through as he leans on the shelf right next to my head "I love these conversations of ours sweetheart but not so much when you look like you're gonna bite my dick off any second."
"I'd be doing society a favour ending your genetic line."
"You're a real charmer, you know?"
"So I've been told."
"By who? Your imaginary boyfriend?"
I finally manage to reach my arm behind him, making sure to take my time as my nose and eyelashes brush his and grab that goddamn book. I send him a tight smile in confirmation, turning away to leave.
But Min Yoongi wasn't done with me yet.
"You coming to my party tonight?"
A laugh shot out of you before you could stop it after looking at his hand gripping the life out of my wrist.
"What you have something better to do on a Friday night?" he laughs in disbelief, how could a drug dealer like me actually have plans?
"Yeah like genocide, eating myself alive, buying non-popping bubble wrap or I might even do a live stream completely naked on porn hub and send it to all my relatives."
"Well if you don't mind, I'd love a copy," Yoongi flirts, stepping forward and ripping me to shreds with his dangerous gaze.
"You're a piece of shit."
"And you're hot. Sue me," he shrugs, stopping me once more from walking away by pulling my wrist again. By the time he was done my wrist would look like Vermicelli.
He looks around before leaning in as if checking no one could hear what he was about to say.
"If you don't come tonight, I'll tell Mrs Broadshore you sold me this."
My eyes explode out of their sockets as the blonde dangles a small bag of white powder in front of my face. I slap it away quickly in a white-hot rage, looking around the room with paranoia.
"Are you fucking crazy? Has that cheap peroxide finally gone to your brain?" I exclaim, poking him harshly in the forehead leaving a silly white dot but I quickly simmered to that stupid whisper-yelling once a few heads began to turn.
He just smirked.
He's enjoying this.
"I can make your life hell Y/N. Just come to the party, pretty please with a cherry on top?"
Expulsion was actually starting to sound pretty nice.
I often wonder if this school has roof access and now seemed like the perfect moment to use it.
"Fine," I huff and put on a sinister smile "But hear me now, if something happens or you try anything, it's your party so I'll know where you live."
"I promise I won't do anything to you," he holds up his hand in innocence, the other covering his heart. Gosh, he was adorably childish.
There was a moment of silence. He was waiting for something, maybe for me to say something else. There was a point in time where I actually considered the possibility that Min Yoongi might actually like me, or at least like spending time with me but I soon remembered his friends and how they made a teacher quit teaching altogether once.
"Yoongi?"
"What?"
"You can let go of my arm now."
· · ─────── ·𖥸· ─────── · ·
The day had flown by unfortunately quick since the universe knew how I wanted anything but this evening to come. Before I knew it, it was lunchtime and I was spending it in the company of a ferocious headache that only Min Yoongi could conjure.
I open my bag, popping two painkillers into my hand and knocking them back like my life depended on it.
Then I noticed the staring and how the noisy cafeteria has dulled to just a few murmurs.
"It's Ibuprofen!" I exclaim, shaking the packet in their faces.
· · ─────── ·𖥸· ─────── · ·
I had to give it to the guy, Hoseok knew how to throw a party. I didn't mind the school's No. 1 party planner since he was on the nicer side and tended to nudge the guys who were insulting me until they stopped and thew me apologetic smiles. Still, he had some pretty shitty friends.
It was weird walking into a room outside of school where every face at one point had made fun of me or said something rude. It wasn't a nice feeling.
And, Yoongi definitely knew this. That's why this invite was the ultimate form of torment.
I was a goldfish in a sea of sharks.
"Now don't you look killer!"
I look down at my leather trousers and plain top again and shrugged. It wasn't anything special but I mumble something close to a 'thanks.'
"You want a drink?"
"Look who's playing good host," I step back smiling teasingly at him but really it was just one of my many excuses to check him out. He was wearing dark jeans, a white t-shirt and a thick colourful cardigan. Of course, he looked good. He always did.
That's what made it worse.
"Sure I'll have a drink as long as you don't spit in it."
He nods, fluffy blonde hair bouncing with him, telling me to follow him but his hand lands on the small of my back anyway.
"You can supervise," he whispers down the side of my neck. There was a good chance he could feel my trembling and goosebumps through my thin top but he didn't say anything either too busy greeting people on the way to the kitchen or he was genuinely trying to be nice.
Hmm, probably the first one.
The kitchen was annoyingly gorgeous just like the rest of his home and the fact that there weren't as many people in here meant that I could take it all in better. It was expensive, huge but still homely.
"What's your poison?" Yoongi asks, grabbing two clean plastic cups from the kitchen island.
"I'll have whatever," I mumble lost in the beauty of his house "Nice place."
"Thanks," he looks up to watch my awe while simultaneously pouring rum and coke into the cups "My parents are architects."
He hands me mine with his beautiful hands full of silver rings and I nod in a kind-of 'thank you.' I don't think I've ever sincerely thanked Yoongi for anything, it was weird interacting with him without wanting to shout at him.
"What do your pare-"
"Hey, Yoongles!"
Saved by the bellends. The famously handsome Taehyung and Jungkook stumble arm in arm up to the two of us with great big smiles but their cheer and buzz flatten when they see me.
"What the hell is she-"
"Milady," Jungkook does a weird curtsey while Taehyung rudely points to me in confusion "I hope you didn't come empty-handed!"
I was stiff. I didn't know what to say.
"Of course, she didn't, bon voyage gentlemen," Yoongi shoos them away, handing them a small bag similar to the one he danged in front of my face just a few hours ago to bribe me into coming here.
My eyes widen again, still not used to seeing drugs in person only on tv. They looked less scary in person, that was the scary thing.
"Pleasure doing business with you sweetheart," Jungkook salutes me with heavy-lidded eyes and he stumbles away with a still-confused and staring Kim Taehyung.
"Check it's not baking powder, I know how these mafia types work," he nudges the black-haired kid, looking over his shoulder with caution half expecting me to be standing there with a gun pointed to his head.
"You want some?" Yoongi asks calmly and casually, getting rid of any positive thoughts I might have managed to gather in the entire 5 minutes that I'd been here.
My blood boils and bubbles. I put down my drink harshly so it sloshes around like an ocean storm in the cup and grip the counter, trying to calm down a little before facing him.
"I don't do drugs asshole!"
It's quiet. I'm quiet when I turn to see him holding a red bowl of crisps out to me, munching away with a little fear.
"Sorry," I sigh, shaking my head and running a hand through my hair to wipe away the stupidity.
I take a crisp but bite slowly just in cas-
"I haven't poisoned them."
"I know," I mock him, speeding up my bites just to prove a point.
"You can't poison crisps, I was trying for ages. I got the lab coat, the gloves and everything," he mumbles a joke, digging through the bowl for the perfect crisp.
A heavy and breathy laugh escapes me like he punched it out, my back to the counter. Was I crazy or was this actually a decent conversation?
"Are you actually laughing at my jokes? Wow."
And, then he ruins it.
"At you actually attempting sciene, not your jokes."
Another sip and he watches my every gulp from my hand to my lips, to the liquid travelling down my throat thickly with a slight burn.
"Drink up y/n you're gonna need it."
"Why's that?" I ask cautiously, looking between him and the drink.
Has he drugged me?
"Oh, you didn't think I was letting you leave did you?"
"What!"
· · ─────── ·𖥸· ─────── · ·
Thankfully after another hour of being uncomfortable under Yoongi's gaze, he was dragged away by Hoseok to go dance.
Relief wasn't the word.
I took the opportunity to be a little bit nosy and wandered around. It was that big that I could possibly keep exploring until the end of the party and still not have covered half the grounds. If I had to be here then at least I could do it alone.
But did I really have to do anything for him? Everyone already thought I was some kind of drug dealer anyway and surely if I had some massive drug lord for a father, the school would be too shit-scared to expel me.
Min Yoongi might actually be doing me a favour here.  
"Hey everyone spin the bottle get in a circle!" Hoseok's loud voice echoed up the stairs and the thought of this social interaction immediately shot me into panic mode. I escaped through the first door I could touch, closing it softly and leaning against it on the other side with an enormous sigh of relief.
I was still holding the handle when the toilet flushes in the room and through the door frame in walks Yoongi.
Of course.
He just smiles as soon as he spots me frozen in place like I was naked and afraid or something.
"Hello, sunshine. I never thought I'd get you in here," he shakes his head happily, leaning against the frame with his hands in his pockets.
I say nothing and just sort of glare.
"Hoseok's started spin-the-bottle already huh?"
"Yeah, had to escape somehow. Your carpet is too soft for me to throw myself down the stairs," I finally mutter and it was the first thing I had said in at least an hour.
He laughs then notices my hands still behind my back, gripping onto the door handle for dear life.
"Well, aren't you gonna come in?" he demands more than asks, convincing me like he always does with his seductive voice. He just sits on his bed all casual as he walked me walk in.
"Why are you in here?" I ask, distracting him from looking at me since it was very uncomfortable as I head over to his desk.
Comic books. Every slam dunk there was. He's watching me touch them, not in the way where he's on edge that I'm gonna mess them up, he's just watching.
"I don't like dancing, people or loud places."
The faint thumping of the music below made that funnier.
"So you don't like parties?" I asked slowly, trying to figure out if I was being stupid or if he was just an idiot.
"I don't like parties."
He's an idiot.
"So, you don't like parties and you have an unhealthy comic book obsession," I point out, memorising the very few interesting things there are to learn about Min Yoongi.
"You didn't think I'd like comic books?"
I mean it made sense. I at least knew he liked basketball since he was on the team and I'd see him practise on the way to the library. But every single copy? Some of them signed?
"I didn't think you could read."
He laughs getting up walking over to me, joining me in looking at his stuff and watching me pick things up. It's strange but not uncomfortable, no.
"I can read you."
I face him with an eyebrow raised up as far North as it could go.
"Like a book."
"Oh yeah?" I challenge him, crossing my arms and leaning against his desk "What am I thinking?"
I put something random in my mind to distract my mind gravitating towards his lips at this close proximity, like Polish pickles.
"My lips."
I'm stunned but I have to keep up appearances so I scoff.
"You're so conceited."
"You're in denial."
"Of what? What am I in denial of? In fact, what am I doing here?" the frustration starts pouring out of me and I'd lost the lid to reseal it again. I raise my arms to gesture to his house and let them fall down again with a harsh slap against my thighs.
"Because I asked you to," Yoongi shrugs, stating simply that I do as I'm told.
"You know that's not what I mean."
"I asked you to come, you're here sure there was some persuasion-"
"Some persuasion? You blackmailed me into coming to your party to keep you company while you sulk in your room? What the hell is the matter with you!" I exclaimed, no longer relaxed against the desk and pointing at his chest like an angry relative.
"Isn't it obvious?"
The kiss takes me completely by surprise. He wastes absolutely none of his surprisingly powerful energy in his movements by pressing me into the desk begging me to sit on it, lips attacking mine with everything they have as if making up for lost time. His fingers start to hook in my belt loops to bring me even closer, the rest of his hand cupping my hips.
That is until a hard slap empties all the other noise and movement in the room.
My chest heaves, eyes narrowed in a state of that dreadful breathless adrenaline. I looked angry but that was the best thing that has ever happened to me. I knew he was just trying to pick on my completely obvious feelings for him, that's when I no longer had to fake my rage.
But the way he held his chiselled cheek with a large smirk failing to hide on his face was intoxicating. The large red mark almost makes you feel guilty.
Almost.
How dare he?
"Where did that come from?" he beams, stepping forward as if I'd just revealed a hidden talent or something.
"You take one more step and I promise you, you won't be smirking," I alert him, holding my hand out to his chest to stop him from coming any closer.
"I love it when you treat me rough," Yoongi continues to walk, hypnotising me by taking my hand, crawling up my wrist to intertwine our fingers with his signature shit-eating grin. He's just so annoyingly and sexily casual!
"You're a pig. How could you do this?" I push him away again, ready to leave every single part of my life that contained him behind.
When Yoongi noticed I was genuinely upset with his actions he dropped the act and chased me the short distance to his bedroom door.
"W-what have I done?"
Does he have no short term memory or is my wrist stronger than I thought it was?
I just had to get out. It was everything it was the still burning red mark on his cheek, the tingling of my lips, the ghost of his fingertips on my hips as he reached for my belt loops. I was beyond embarrassed that I had kissed back.
His stupid face. I turn around.
"I really thought that maybe tonight you were taking a break from hurting me or making me feel like an idiot. That maybe you felt bad and wanted to make up for being an asshole but no, of course, that's just who you are."
"Y/N-"
"No don't even waste your energy," I hold my hand up still choosing not to face him since I could feel my voice starting to break already "I already feel like an idiot most of the time anyway, get a hobby."
I look to his desk again.
"A real one."
I open the door the fresh air on the other side teasing me until he closes it.
He turns me around, holding my shoulders and keeping me pinned against his bedroom wall like the poster of Tupac he had.
"Can't you just consider the possibility for one second that I might actually want to spend time with you?" He fumes, eyes and voice eating me alive as he shows he's actually frustrated. His voice had actual emotion other than arrogance or teasing or mischief.
I was trembling- in fear or excitement, I didn't know.
"I'm a simple guy Y/N. When I want something I make myself clear. I asked you to come here, you said no. I told you you looked sexy, which you really do, by the way, you think I'm manipulating you. I offer you snacks and a drink, you jump down my throat. I kiss you, you slap me in the face."
I'm quiet.
"I'm not trying to ruin your life, you get enough of that from those idiots," he nods to the other side of that door and the loud laughter that still managed to push through the thick ambience of this room "I know I make you nervous but, believe it or not, you make me nervous too. So what's the problem here?"
Yoongi was drawing you in, engulfing me whole with his dark eyes waiting for me to say something sexy and impressive. I could feel my legs starting to give way in his shadow.
"I'm scared."
He leans in whispering softly, voice humming through us both as his lips tickle the trembles in my throat.
"I scare you?"
It was hard not to say yes. His arms were either side of my head and I should feel trapped, I should feel suffocated, claustrophobic. But secretly there was nothing I wanted more than for him to crush me at this moment.
"I'm scared of what you're doing to me and if it's just some big joke," I finally admit my truth, allowing my worries to leave me along with a small whimper as his lips start to kiss my jaw.
"I'm going to kiss you again and you tell me if it seems like I'm joking."

five times - s. r.
Pairing: Spencer Reid x Reader Summary: A collection of the times Spencer says “I love you” without saying it, and the one time he actually does. Warnings: tooth rotting fluff Word Count: 2k, it’s a short one A/N: happy new year guys! since you wanted this to be fluffy, here it is! hope you enjoy! gif not mine.
Tumblr media
Spencer didn't know what he had been expecting when Hotch had announced to the team that they would have young additions. He had assumed that the newcomer would be pretty serious so that he would be taken seriously, and that he would be very reserved at the beginning to get to know the team first and not offend anyone. But he definitely wasn't expecting you.
On your first day, you showed up to work in a knee-length summer dress and high Converse, which threw him off right from the start. While JJ and Emily always wore something office appropriate, you didn't seem to mind catching everyone's eye. With an infectious confidence and a big smile on your face, you introduced yourself to the others. While most of the team looked at you as if you were from another star - except for Penelope Garcia, of course, she was incredibly happy to finally know another colorful bird in the midst - Spencer liked that you stayed true to yourself. No matter what anyone else thought of you.
You went through life with an ease that was quite atypical of your profession. It almost reminded Spencer of Garcia, but only almost. You didn't have to look away when someone showed you photos of dead bodies. He sometimes caught himself worrying that the job would eventually take away your cheerfulness.
"'DO NOT TOUCH' would probably be a really unsettling thing to read in braille“, you said as you sat in the bullpen. Your desk bordered his, so Spencer only had to look up from his files to give you an amused look.
"Where did you come up with that?", he asked, a smile curling his lips.
You shrugged before looking at him. "I don't know. But it would be pretty disturbing, wouldn't it? How fortunate that it can't happen to me."
Spencer tilted his head. "Because you're not blind?"
"Because I can't read braille“, you replied with a grin, and he laughed out loud, drawing everyone's attention. Spencer smiled briefly at them and motioned for them to turn back to their work so you could continue talking undisturbed.
He leaned a little in your direction before whispering to you.
"Your head must be a wonderful place to live in."
-
It was incredibly loud and the air was too stuffy to be able to grasp a clear thought. But maybe it was just the alcohol the bartender was pouring out like Penelope had certain nicknames regarding Derek. But it also seemed to be Garcia's goal to get the entire team drunk on her birthday. She had round after round coming to your booth, repeating "one of you is dancing on the table today" several times. You were sure it would be Penelope herself. Or JJ.
You were enjoying yourself with Emily on the dance floor of the club. You were incredibly warm, which was probably 75% due to the alcohol you had already drunk. You were wearing tight jeans and a backless, loose top, and yet your skin was so hot that the clothes almost stuck to you. At first you had worried that Emily and you were too different to become friends, but one day she showed up on your doorstep after an exhausting case and stayed all night. It had bonded you together.
In a quiet moment, you looked to the others and Derek raised an arm, signaling you were ready for the next round of shots. You grabbed Emily's arm and, singing, you squeezed through the crowd toward the table.
"If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends“, you sang, and you dropped into the empty seat next to Spencer, who looked at you with amusement. "Make it last forever, friendship never eeeend“, you sang on, leaning back in Spencer's direction without touching him. When he tried to put his arm around you to pull you close, you pushed him away. "I'm sweaty and sticky, Spence. I don't think you're into that."
But Spencer reached for your hand and intertwined his fingers with yours before pulling you onto his lap. His breath brushed your face and you smelled the alcohol in it. "I don't care. I love touching you."
-
"There's a documentary about the formation of the universe and black holes in theaters tonight“, Spencer said. The team was on its way back from a case in Dallas, and while the others were resting or listening to music, you two were playing chess. Not that it was fair, but you liked the challenge and Spencer finally had someone to play with again. "I was wondering if you would like to join me. This case has been exhausting and I think we could use a distraction." He asked without looking up from the chessboard. His face turned glowing red, which you didn't notice because you were trying not to go checkmate in three moves.
You moved your queen before you looked at him. His shoulders were tense and he was breathing shallowly. Spencer bit the inside of his lower lip nervously. "I'd love to“, you smiled, and at your reply he seemed to visibly relax.
Spencer picked you up at home after you showered and got ready. You were wearing jeans and a loose sweater. Up until that point, Spencer had been sure you couldn't get any more beautiful, but when you hugged him with a sparkle in your eye and a warmth in your smile, he wasn't sure anymore.
"Origin of the universe and black holes?", you assured yourself as you stood outside the movie theater. Spencer nodded, his hands buried in his pants pockets. You smirked. "You have to promise me one thing, though."
"And that would be?", he asked as he paid for the tickets and put yours in your hand. You smiled at him.
"You have to promise me that you will tell me every one of your clever thought processes. I want to hear every comment you make, all right? Even if people around us complain."
It was the second time Spencer and you had done something together outside of work, and you enjoyed his company very much, which of course was partly because you'd had a crush on him ever since he'd once explained something to you about his case that you hadn't understood. Spencer had explained it to you as well as he could, and when you thanked him afterwards, he didn't know what hit him. No one cared about his clever anecdotes or explanations, and the fact that you had even thanked him for it made his heart beat faster. Just as it did now.
Spencer looked at you, pleased. "We're the only ones at the movies, Y/N. No one's going to complain."
"Then you can explain everything I don't understand at your leisure."
You entered the movie theater and took your seats. He handed you the packet of popcorn. "You are my partner in crime. You are my favorite person."
-
"The exhibit was very interesting“, you said as you left the museum. It hadn't been your first visit, but visiting it with Spencer was a very different experience. You liked that he had something to say about most of the exhibits. "Thank you for being here with me."
Spencer smiled down at you. "Well, actually, I asked you to go here with me. So I have to say thank you."
"But I wouldn't have been here tonight if you hadn't asked me. So, thanks for that."
Your apartment wasn't far away, and with each step you hoped the evening wouldn't end just yet. As you stood in front of your apartment complex, Spencer nervously stepped from one foot to the other. "I had a really nice evening“, he confessed.
"Me too." If you didn't want the evening to end now, you had to take the plunge. "I'd never been on a date to a museum before."
Spencer's eyes widened and for a moment you feared you had misinterpreted everything. The looks, the stories and the touches. But Spencer stopped your train of thought. "Neither have I. Well, I had been to a museum before, of course, but it had never been dates, and I'm glad I was there with you“, he babbled, blushing, which made you smile. You liked that you could read his feelings from his face. "Um, maybe we can meet again tomorrow? For dinner? If that's not too much for you?"
You didn't answer him, but put your arms around his neck and gently pulled him down to you. In his face you searched for signs that he didn't want this, and when you couldn't find any, you gently placed your lips on his.
At first he didn't return the kiss, which you attributed to his surprise. He stiffened and it took a moment for the synapses in his brain to realize what exactly was happening. You were kissing him. And you had kissed him first. When his mind started thinking again, his hands settled on your waist and he pulled you a little closer to him to deepen the kiss. When you broke away from each other, he had a gleam in his eyes.
"I recorded a short film about quantum physics that was on TV“, you whispered, opening your eyes while he kept his still closed. "If you like, you can come upstairs with me and we can watch it together."
The short movie played as background music while you sat on your couch and kissed until your lips were swollen and your lungs were gasping for air.When he broke away from you for a moment, all he could do was whisper.  "I'm addicted to you."
-
You had tried to keep your relationship a secret, and had failed miserably.
It had taken a psychopath, a hostage, and an explosion for you to fall into each other's arms and for Spencer to kiss you stormily in front of the team. His fingers dug into your skin and would surely leave bruises, but you didn't care. You had escaped the explosion by a hair and Spencer couldn't help but thank all the gods and pull you close to him as you stood in front of him.
"I thought you had been in the building“, he breathed as he gently pushed you off of him to look at you. "I thought I'd lost you."
A tear rolled down your cheek, which he wiped away with his thumb. "You're not getting rid of me that easily, Spence." He pressed another kiss to your mouth before someone cleared their throat. The team stood just a few steps away from you, watching you, which was pretty embarrassing. Except for Hotch, everyone looked pleased and delighted, but you also didn't miss Hotch pressing a bill into JJ's hand.
"That's why you didn't want to go on that blind date I set you up with“, Derek grinned, putting a brotherly arm around Spencer's shoulders. "Pretty boy has a girlfriend."
Nothing ever felt so good as sharing a bed with Spencer after that day. You were half on top of him, he had his arm wrapped around you, and your legs were tangled under the covers. His fingers stroked your bare back and yours danced across his chest. He took a deep breath.
"Are you all right?", you asked, looking at him.
He swallowed. "I know we haven't been together that long and it's probably way too soon, but I almost lost you today and I can't keep it to myself any longer." Gently, he pushed you off of him and propped himself up on his elbow so he had to look down at you. "You're not just my favorite person, Y/N. You inspire me every day and you complete me in every way. You are the person I want to spend the rest of my life with." He put his hand to your cheek and you snuggled against his warm skin. "I love you, Y/N."

summary: you told keigo that you’re carrying his child but he didn’t take it well. five years later he shows up in front of your door after being invited by his son and says he wants to fix everything.
Tumblr media
you lean down towards the counter as you concentrate on creating pretty swirls of cream on the cake you baked with a piping bag. the dining table is full of food, a feast almost too huge for only two people, but you have a good excuse. it is a special day. your son’s fifth birthday to be exact. 
kids these days can be ruthless and your son doesn’t get along very well with the other kids from his kindergarten. they like picking on others that seem too fragile, too quiet – criteria that fits him well and it doesn’t help with the fact that they know he’s growing up without a father. your child never opened up to you about the constant mocking he faced until one day you overheard him sobbing through his pillow in his own room. it was dark, though the door was still open by an inch to allow a small amount of light to penetrate into the room whenever he slept. he said he wanted to sleep earlier because he was tired but the muffling sounds he tried to conceal betrayed his efforts when you passed by later that night.
it made you angry and disappointed in yourself. you really tried your best to juggle between being a mom and a dad at the same time, keeping an eye on your child and working your ass off to make a living for the two of you. you’d always put up a tough front, never broke down in front of him when you were dead tired from being overworked and the thought of him trying to not make you worry, shattered your heart into pieces. you know that all he deserves is a good life and you constantly blame yourself for not being good enough, mostly angry at your past self for not even knowing how to make good decisions and think things through. 
if only you could turn back time, you would tell yourself to never get involved with a pro hero – to never get involved with someone who feels so responsible for other strangers’ lives but not their own child’s. 
were you being selfish? for not understanding that his work always comes first? he can’t possibly have a family when he has villains out there that need to be put in their right place for their crimes. were you expecting too much from him?
“can’t you… get rid of it?” he muttered. his cold words felt like a sharp blade that just stabbed you in the heart. never once you thought that he would say that. how easy was it for him to ask you to throw out another life like it meant nothing? 
“keigo, you can’t be serious.” you shook your head, your legs were already wobbling and you felt sick to your stomach. this news should be happy for the both of you but unfortunately, you two weren’t on the same page. 
was it your fault? keigo never spoke about having a child together but he always said he’d love to build a family with you someday – he loved you, he would always protect you and be there for you. sure, it was a slip up this time. you always made sure to take proper measures to avoid pregnancy from happening but you were also more than glad to bear this child and you were convinced that keigo would be happy about it as much as you were. he loved you so much, after all. 
“i don’t think…” he stammered, trying to find the right words. “give me some time.”
your lips pursed into a thin line, hands clenching hard and knuckles turning white. think? the uncertainty in his voice was already giving you the obvious answer. he couldn’t even look you in the eyes. he never wanted this.
“save the trouble, keigo.” you spat. “how about i’ll just leave so you don’t even have to think at all?”
keigo finally lifted up his head to look at you with wavering eyes, but he still couldn’t find the words to say, to comfort you. “what are you saying?”
“i’m still going to have this child. even if it means i have to do it alone.” with a sharp breath, you turned around towards the door.
you heard a frustrating sigh coming from your back, “you know i can’t. you know damn well that i have my job as a hero and i can’t look after… after a child!”
“but it’s your child keigo!” you turned around to scream and look at him again, tears already welling in your eyes, threatening to pour out.
“and what difference does that make?!” he yelled back. “in fact, that’s even worse!”
the room was quiet as the both of you just stood there. keigo slowly realizing what just came out of his mouth in the heat of the moment while you just stared at him in disbelief. both were standing stunned and speechless from what he clearly said. that was it, you thought. 
“fuck you.” you cursed under your breath and immediately left his place, not even sparing a look back. 
if he was sorry, he would chase after you. if he didn’t mean it, he would look everywhere for you.
but none of that happened.
you ended up going back to your hometown after that. it was shameful, to finally see your parents again but just to cry on their feet as soon as you saw their faces and telling them that you were carrying an illegitimate child. it was devastating for them initially but thankfully they easily accepted it, welcoming you to stay over at their place with open arms so they could help you throughout your pregnancy until the baby was born and grown. above all, you were still their daughter. living far away, your parents had never met keigo and they were shocked to know that you were having the no.2 pro hero’s baby but also disappointed at how he reacted when you told him the news.
however, what was done is done and you can only manage to move forward by raising the child with your utmost capability. you promised yourself that you’ll protect and raise this child with as much love and care a mother can offer. whatever it takes, even if you’ll have to do it by yourself. 
you ended up living with your parents until your son turned four and decided to live independently, not wanting to burden them any longer. they didn’t want to let you go, the presence of the child brought so much joy in their daily lives. he was a bundle of sunshine and they loved him so much. 
and kyō is just beautiful. 
keigo’s genes manage to overpower your son compared to yours. fluffy but shorter blonde hair, dark and sharp on the inner corner of the eyes and not to forget the red wings on his back. it isn’t as big as keigo’s yet but it still stands out. although he takes on your personality more, every part of him reminds you of keigo and sometimes it feels like a jab to your chest. it hurts to be reminded of the man that hurt you and told you to get rid of the child you were bearing so ruthlessly.
throughout the years, you tried to make peace with the past. at first, it was hard to look at the news and see his face. he was almost everywhere, a lot of stores also sold his merchandise and his face even covered the magazines-- you realized you couldn’t escape him, your past. although he’s in the limelight, the media was still unaware about his private life and you were glad alas the similar features of kyō to the pro hero made some passersby and mothers at the park question you. fortunately, you already came up with a bullshit excuse like “he is such a big fan of hawks and he cosplays him every day… and oh, the wings are fake too.”
of course, strangers weren’t the only ones who inquired about it. even the little child himself could smartly notice his resemblance with the pro hero.
as soon as he first saw hawks on tv, he went on and on about how they looked so much alike. he was beyond fascinated, he could barely understand what the news was talking about at the time but being on the screen was more than enough to make him understand that hawks was an amazing guy. his eyes would twinkle in wonder when the news caught footage of him flying in the air with his red wings spreading graciously. if anything at all, kyō just couldn’t wait to flap his own smaller wings soon. 
then one thing led to another. a question that any curious child would ask their parents about. 
oftentimes kyō would ask you about his dad. why didn’t he have one like the other children he played with at the park and oftentimes you would try to avoid the topic and shrugged it off with a lame joke saying how you were also his dad and how you were powerful to have two bodies in one unlike other people. 
he ended up growing tired of it one day, crying to you and asked if the reason why he didn’t have one was because he didn’t love him – something he heard one of the kids said. it broke you and you were lost for words. you called your parents for support and after much discussion, your mother thought he deserved to at least know the truth and you did just that. 
luckily, he took it surprisingly well. even his little brain can comprehend the job of a top hero, he understood that it was a lot of work and keigo was often busy and far away. it was less to his liking when you made him promise you to not tell anyone about it and he should keep it as a secret because bad guys would chase after him if another single soul would know and his dad did it to protect him. it was a bad lie, but still, you had to do it.
later, kyō realized that his birthday was coming soon. he knew what he had always wanted. he didn’t know if he could have it but maybe… maybe if he tried and wished hard enough, it would come true. 
he sneakily took your phone to look up “hawks'' on your phone, though at first he was only shown results and pictures of the literal bird before smartly adding “pro hero” at the back. with limited comprehension, he eventually managed to find the agency’s website before scrolling further to find the address to the agency and scribbled it down on a piece of paper. 
-
“daddy?!” the bell has been ringing for a few times but you were too concentrated on decorating the birthday cake to even hear it but your son’s small wings flutter in excitement as he runs across the hallway to open the door.
your heart stops for a second. was that the reason why your son was pacing around the living room? you’re not expecting any guests for tonight’s dinner at all, especially the father of your child. 
“hey! i got your letter!” the familiar excited tone of his voice bursts from the door as he speaks. he kneels down eye-level as his son and gives him a big hug. “happy birthday.”
“what letter?” you break into the conversation, arms folded in front of your chest as you lean against the wall with an unamused expression written across your face. 
“i wrote daddy a letter!” your son says proudly, but you can already imagine the horrible squiggly lines on the handwritten letter. 
“and you gave me a picture too. you look exactly like me, am so happy!” keigo chuckles, ruffling the hair of his boy, eliciting little giggles from the other. it’s a beautiful sight and it makes your heart ache a little at the image of what it could’ve been. if only he was fully ready to accept the fact that he was gonna bear a child. if only he knew how to balance between his career and personal life. you could’ve had the most beautiful family you’ve ever dreamed of. 
“honey, can you go to your room for a bit? your daddy and i have to talk.” you say softly, hoping that he won’t take it any other way.
“am i.. in trouble?” kyō turns to you with a frown and puppy eyes – which he knows well that it would always work on you and it’s almost adorable how it’s exactly what keigo would do whenever he makes you annoyed with his antics. it’s just one of his ways to apologize to you. 
you sigh and shake your head, “no. we’re gonna talk about…” you glance elsewhere as you think of an excuse. “your surprise present!” 
“it’s not a surprise anymore if you say it like that, mommy!” the child laughs and scurries to his room as told and the both of you watch him with a smile tugged on your lips. 
you turn back to keigo with a dour expression as soon as your son closes the door to his room, causing him to fidget a bit from his spot. he hasn’t seen it for years, after all. he’s about to pull you into a hug but instead, you quickly turn your heels around towards the kitchen.
“i still have things to do. either you help me with it or leave.”
he quickly takes off his shoes and follows you, taking in the view around the house before he enters the kitchen. the atmosphere is stuffy and tense while you sit on the stool to continue decorating the cake. 
“you can help by setting up the plates. top cabinet.” you break the awkward silence and keigo obliges, he reaches the cabinet to take out the available plates and put them nicely around the table. 
“you made it yourself?” he tries to make a conversation as he glances at you working on the cake. 
“yeah.” you simply reply without taking your eyes off from your work. 
“it’s nice. chocolate?”
“obviously.”
keigo sighs from the underwhelming response, “i know you don’t want me here but –”
“no shit.” you almost slam the table but quickly recompose yourself by taking a deep breath. for the sake of your son, you know you shouldn’t get into an argument right now, at least not today. 
“look, i’ll leave as soon as this is over if that’s what you want.”
you glare at him, “it’s more than what i want right now,” then it’s your turn to sigh. “but i doubt that’s what kyō would want.” 
keigo already knows his name from the letter but his lips etch into a warm smile at the sound of the name you’ve given to the-- his child and a small part of him wishes that he was there in the process of choosing a name for the boy together with you. 
“okay, just for tonight. we’ll pretend like we’re a happy family.” you stand up from the stool after putting the last candle and set the cake in the middle of the table. 
“...and what if we don’t have to?” he blurts out after a brief and quiet moment, immediately catching your attention. he notices the puzzled look on your face and continues, “what if we really start being a happy family from now and onwards?”
you blink once, twice. for a second, you feel a heavy pang in your chest as your brain processes the words that just came out from his mouth. it’s like déjà vu, only this time keigo has certainty in his voice.
the room falls dead silent again as you stare at each other. you’re finding words and about to open your mouth to say something but kyō suddenly interrupts from the corner of the kitchen and both of your attentions quickly turn to him.
“mommy..? i’m hungry.” 
“oh, sweetheart. you’re just in time!” you walk up to kyō to carry him in your arms before bringing him to the dining table. his eyes sparkle at the variety of food spread across the table and his wings flutter in excitement. 
“can you help light up the candles? the lighter is in the drawer.” you usher to keigo as you show your son his favorite food you made earlier while keigo quickly rummages through the drawer. he lights up each candle as you put down kyō on one of the chairs before he stands on his knees to reach close enough to blow the candles. the both of you excitedly sing happy birthday and clap your hands as he blows off the candles after a brief moment for a wish. 
“what did you wish for?” keigo asks, affectionately patting kyō on the head.
“i wish to be a hero like daddy!” he exclaims, arms and wings spread in enthusiasm. a bittersweet feeling engulfs him-- a part of him is disappointed and ashamed of himself while another part of him is elated and relieved that he’s still looked up upon by his own child. in the corner of his heart, keigo thinks he doesn’t deserve it. kyō is a splitting image of himself (minus the color of his eyes that he takes after you) and it easily brings back visions of him from the past. he wanted to be a hero too, but his father wasn’t someone he could look up to. hence, making endeavor the only man he idolized. 
he realizes he is lucky enough to be the person his son looks up to. he knows that this was what his own younger self would want. a father he can be proud of, a hero at that. keigo wants to make it right with whatever it’ll take.
the night proceeds smoothly, all three of you have fun together like any normal family would and bonding over lost times. keigo is thoughtful (though his choice seems a little bit conceited) enough to give kyō a present; an action figure of himself. unknowingly, the walls that you built around you by the time keigo arrived earlier slowly crumbles and you grow less wary around him as time ticks by. when it’s bedtime for the boy, keigo insists on putting him to bed so he can spend more time with him which you gladly consented to so you can also continue cleaning up the kitchen.
a set of footsteps coming down the stairs can be heard as you’re seated on one of the stools while sipping tea. 
“want some tea?” you offer without turning around to look at the male.
“sure.” he says as he walks up to you. 
you can feel his tall and lean build ghosting you from the back as you pour a cup for him but his hands suddenly reach your shoulders and give them light squeezes. 
“what are you doing?” you ask quizzically, glancing at the hand on your shoulder.
“giving you a massage.” he smiles innocently as he continues pressing on the knot in your stiff shoulders, making you sigh in reflex.
“trying to get on my good side?” you say in a mocking tone.
“hmm, just showing my appreciation to you.” his hands move lower to your spine, your back arches a little as he presses down your aching muscles. 
“you’re five years too late, keigo.” you sneer but welcome his service as you close your eyes and hum in content. it’s not that bad, you assure yourself in your head. 
keigo diligently continues to massage your back as the kitchen now fills with your quiet sighs and whimpers whenever he rubs on the sore spot. without you realizing, he slyly pulls the collar of your baggy shirt down and plants soft kisses on your bare shoulder.
“k-keigo?” you immediately open your eyes and flinch at the sudden touch.
he remains quiet while his hands work up and down your arms gently and his lips move further up to your earlobe, sending tingling sensations down to your core and you can already feel your nipples harden underneath your shirt. 
“relax.” his hot breath fans over your ear as he whispers. your cheeks are already burning red and you’re out of sarcastic remarks as you can only find yourself to indulge into his touches. 
you gasp in surprise when keigo’s hands sneakily move under your shirt and quickly unsnaps your bra. he massages your breasts and kneads them gently before teasing your erect nipple between his fingers. your hands firmly clenches the edge of the island to hold yourself as he nips on the crook of your neck, just gently to carefully not leave a mark. 
“you want more, babybird?” he coos as he realizes that your thighs are pressing against each other. as much as you hate to admit it, the nostalgic pet name tugs on your heartstrings and you find yourself melting after hearing it after years again. 
feeling embarrassed, you quietly nod your head. 
“i can’t hear you.” a teasing tone lingers in his voice. he knows what he’s doing and you hate him for it.
“more, keigo...” you whine. it sounds so innocent and adorable but it absolutely makes his cock twitch. noticing that you’ve been avoiding looking at him the whole time, he uses one of his hands to make you look at him and grins when he catches the red tint spread across your face before he presses his lips onto yours. 
the traces of your ego make you hesitate at first but you’re quick to lose it as he deepens it, as if to send you a silent message of how much he misses you while his tongue intertwines with yours. 
one of his hands remains to massage your mound while the other travels down south to easily part your legs and cups your heated sex. keigo rubs the clit against the fabric of your pants, eliciting breathy moans from your lips between kisses. you pull away and lean back to his body as he slides his hand under your pants, feeling the wet patch that is already staining your underwear. 
“already wet from all of that?” he says playfully, taking out his hand to look at the damp juices as he rubs it between his fingers. 
“says the man that was grinding his cock on my back.” you roll your eyes halfheartedly, missing the faint blush that becomes apparent on his cheeks.
keigo then reaches for the cups in front of you and pushes them aside before lifting you up on the kitchen island, making you turn towards him. he swiftly pulls down your pants along with your underwear, your cunt bare and glistening under the lights for him to see.
his golden irises lock with yours as he kicks the stool to the side and crouches down to spread your thighs apart. he starts to lap off your juices, tongue alternating between your throbbing clit and hole. your elbows help to prop you up as your head hangs back and your eyes close in pure bliss. 
keigo smacks and clenches your thighs to draw your attention to him, “baby, look at me.”
you submissively lift your head to look at him, eyes locking with each other again as he watches you squirm on the tongue flicking your clit and eats you out like a starved man having his first meal after a long day. 
you grab a lock of his blonde hair in one hand, pushing him closer as your legs tremble around his head, feeling the bubbling sensation of your orgasm building up. 
“mmh – gonna cum!” you cry out in ecstasy, instantly forgetting the people next door and your son that’s sound asleep on the upper floor as you chase after your high.
keigo smoothly slides two fingers inside your pussy and your hips begin to grind desperately onto them. he knows you’re close when he feels the walls clenching around him and with another suck on the clit, he quickly gets to tip you over the edge. 
“so good for me.” he coos as he pulls away, licking his fingers clean before carrying your panting body in his arms and walks over to sprawl your body on the couch. he hovers on top of you and kisses you again while his hands work on unzipping and taking off his lower garments to free his throbbing cock. 
he smears the precum by pumping his cock as he watches you down, adoring the look of absolute bliss on your face and half lidded eyes that he longed for over the years. 
“my songbird,” he purrs as he leans down to you and lines his cock with your wet cunt, “you’re so beautiful.”
if you’re already red, the endearing pet name makes you even redder. your gaze avoids his to hide your embarrassment but he only draws it back gently by your chin with his thumb and finger. 
“don’t you miss me?” his brows furrowed as he searches your face. you can only stare back into his eyes – bright irises filled with nothing but genuine curiosity and desolation. 
your lips pull into a thin line as you ponder for a moment, promptly unable to vocalize like earlier. it’s as if you let even one word escape your mouth, it would make you burst into tears instead. of course you missed him. your mind often wondered if he even thought of you at least once. even when you did make peace with the past, you still couldn’t bring yourself to be the one to make the first step. ego is an ugly thing and you were certain that keigo should be the one to look for you even if it was hard for him since you just disappeared out of his life.
noticing the reluctance to give him an answer, he shushes you. “it’s okay.” he kisses you sweetly on your nose. “but let me show how much i’ve missed you.”
he trails open mouthed kisses down your jaw, neck and collarbone as your hands run through his hair and down to his back. a soft whine manages to escape from your mouth when he nibbles on the soft flesh of your neck, instantly marking it red this time. 
his mouth then latches onto your nipple through your shirt, making you squirm beneath him. your hands clenches to the fabric of his shirt when you feel his fingers teasingly dancing between your wet folds and his thumb ghosting over your clit. 
keigo gives you a kiss on the lips again before pulling away, the cushion dips as he props himself on the knees, rubbing his hard cock against your wet slits and smearing it with your juices.
a low hiss slips from his lips as he slowly prods in the tip of his cock and your expression twists into discomfort as you feel him stretch you out more – a familiar mixture of pain and pleasure that you haven’t felt for a while.
keigo waits for you to adjust and as soon as you give him the greenlight, he continues to completely balls deep inside you. 
“babybird, you feel so good.” he grunts as he bucks his hips and slowly starts to move. 
you bite your lower lip hard, enough to draw blood as you try to stifle your moans. keigo leans down to kiss you while your arms find themselves wrapping around his neck. he thrusts harder and faster and your whimpers and whines finally find themselves shamelessly slipping past from your mouth.
“fucking– hah– perfect.” he pants as he pulls away to look at your flustered face, eyes half closed and mouth agape with pleasure. 
you quickly bury your face on the crook of his neck and hold onto him tighter while your legs wrap securely around his waist. keigo moves his thumb on your clit, pressing down and rubbing circles all to entice nothing but tightening the coil down in your core more. 
“keigo, keigo –” you cry as your nails dig the fabric on his back and your toes curl to the intense sensation.
“baby wants to cum?” he growls as he feels your walls clamping around his cock, making him buck his hips even wilder. 
“yesyesyes – oh god, keigo!” your mind turns putty and unable to form any more coherent words, making only his name being the only thing you remember as your eyes close shut while you’re nearing your high. 
“that’s it – baby. cum on my cock.” he encourages and you do just that. your pussy flutters as you finally reach your orgasm but his sporadic thrusts doesn’t stop until it starts to falter and his wings tremble.
“fuck. i’m gonna fill you up.” he grits through his teeth and his cock twitches before his wings spread wider as he releases his warm cum inside you. 
the both of your bodies stay against each other, chests heaving for air before he briefly pulls out his cock and lays on top of your chest. 
“yes.” your voice suddenly croaks, breaking the almost silent air in the room if not for the sound of yours and his breathing.
keigo lifts up his head to look at you confusingly before a lopsided smile curls on his lips when he hears you utter the next few words.
“yes. i missed you and i don’t want to pretend anymore.” you suddenly feel overwhelmed and tears start to well in your eyes. a flash of panic crosses his face and he pulls you closer into his embrace, hoping to calm you down as you sniffle on his chest. 
“shh, baby. i’m sorry. i know it’s too late and i was so fucking stupid but i’ll – ”
“i want to live as a happy family with you, keigo.” you cut him off, sobbing through his shirt. he pulls away at once to look at you, unable to believe what he just heard through the choking sob but it still makes even him want to cry. 
“babybird, i – ” he’s completely tongue-tied. at this point he can only manage to lean down to be close to you again. he peppers kisses all over your face, saying how thankful and happy he is.
“i love you, my little bird. i won’t fuck up this time, i promise.” he whispers, finally regaining his composure.
that night, keigo could barely sleep a wink. so many thoughts are running through his head. he glances at you sleeping peacefully next to him on the bed and he already pictures how it is to be waking up to see your face every morning. he also hopes that kyō doesn’t know how to fly yet so he could teach him how to use his wings. oh, he’ll also get to find an excuse to buy more buckets of chickens once you three will start living together. 
he can already imagine how the headlines will be bombarded about him having a family and he sighs at the thought, but he hopes that his publicist is ready for a hell lot of work.

Nights in the City.
Crime Boss! Min Yoongi x Sassy College student OC!
Part 1/?
For all that city is supposed to be a thriving metropolis with bustling traffic no matter what the hour, it still felt incredibly creepy to be standing inside a deserted midnight mart, clutching three packs of highlighter pens, a pack of condoms and a pack of tampons.
But it was finals week, and that generally meant that either
a.) I would stress the fuck out of myself and my period would come on early
or
b.) I would run out of highlighters , fail to highlight the most important part of my notes , forget all about it during the exam and end up dropping a whole grade over it.
or
c.) I would be so horny, would manage to sneak a guy into my room and at the last minute , we would both realize we didn't have protection.
Sounds oddly specific?
These are actual things that have happened to me so, one could say I was merely being smartly proactive by preparing a contingency plan for when or in case things went wrong.
Such wisdom, much wow.
And so here i was at the local all night mart, waiting for the drunk out of his mind kid to pay for his flavored water .
My legs ached, it was pouring cats and dogs outside, and I could feel a headache come on.
Just as the guy finished paying, i felt a surge of relief. Great, I could pay and finally leave, thank you Lord, angels and every saint chilling next to Jesus-
A hand shot out from behind me slapping a wad of 100000 won bills on the counter.
"Need to see the CCTV footage from this evening kid." A low gravelly voice rumbled in my ear , so disgustingly hot it bordered on obscene.
I turned around to glare at the stranger, only to feel my breath catch in my throat.
A breathtakingly beautiful man stood right behind me, dressed in what looked like a Valentino Tux, ebony dark hair and tattoos that stood out stark against his pale skin.
He was tall and lithe, eyes cat-like yet blazing with anger ? passion? a love for opera music?
Well whatever it was, it was potent.
As was his cologne .
I gagged a little.
"Excuse me, pretty boy.... you're in my space." I snapped .
He looked surprised, like he really hadn't noticed my five foot four ass dressed in a lime green fleece jacket and purple yoga pants.
He tilted his head.
"Excuse me?"
That fucking drawl.
Rolling my eyes i pointed at the board that said " Wait your Turn."
"Can't you read?" I snapped.
He didn't reply, merely staring at me carefully, as though memorizing all my features before giving me a very blatant once over.
Not to be outdone, I did the same to him and the small smile on his face grew into an amused smirk.
The cashier's panicked voice drew us both out of our little eye fuck fest.
"Miss, please if you could step aside... hyungnim I'm so sorry...let me get the tapes for you at once..."
"That's alright. i'll send one of my men to get it later. Why don't you finish billing her items first?" He said softly. He gave me another small smile.
"Since you asked so nicely, petal." he rasped out, reaching out and gently brushing the hair off my face.
i frowned at the little endearment.
Well, no matter.
Satisfied , both at having stood up for myself and not having it backfire in my face, I grinned wide at the cashier.
Why did he look so terrified? Geez.
I finished paying and then politely stepped out of the line, indicating to Mr. Tuxedo that he could go next.
But he didn't .
instead he followed me as i walked out.
"Where do you live?" He asked casually.
I blinked, confused.
“What? Why?”
“So I can drop you off. It’s late and the city gets dangerous at night.”
I rolled my eyes.
“The city isn’t dangerous..” I lowered my voice , curling my fingers to get him to lean closer. He obliged obediently, moving closer and bending low till his ear was almost level with my lips, “ I am dangerous.”
He straightened, brows raised and lips parted.
“Oh? You are?”
I grinned conspiratorially.
“Listen, you look rich and kind of handsome so I’m going to assume that you aren’t going to mug me, so I’ll show you. Now, the reason I’m wearing this jacket that makes me look like the hulk jizzed all over me is, this jacket is the only jacket I have with big enough pockets to carry this.”
I slipped a hand into my pocket and pulled out my trusty pepper spray.
“Ah. Smart.” He nodded in approval.
“And Dangerous.” I reminded him.
“Definitely dangerous.” He nodded again, solemnly.
Satisfied, I slipped the can back in.
“So really, kind stranger I’m perfectly safe to walk the dark streets of Seoul on this night.”
He smiled and held both hands up , stepping away respectfully.
“A strong independent woman who don’t need no man.” He said with a grin, “ Noted.”
“I’m Shinhye. What’s your name?” I asked brightly.
“Yoongi.” He smiled.
I nodded.
“Alright, Yoongi. I’m gonna go now… By the way why’d you want the CCTV footage?” I smiled at him.
Yoongi hesitated before giving me a small shrug.
“I stabbed a guy in the neck in the store this afternoon . Just wanted to make sure my men turned off the CCTV when it happened.”
I was still smiling, waiting for him to laugh at the joke, which was definitely creepy, but perhaps just in theme with what we had been discussing.
But he didn’t laugh.
And I felt the first stirrings of worry.
“Ha ha ha.” I said nervously.” That’s funny. L-O-L.”
He tilted his head.
“You think stabbing people is funny?”
I blinked, horrified.
“What, of course not… I mean… You didn’t actually stab anyone did you?”
He hesitated.
“To be fair, he stole from me. If I didn’t stab him and drop his body in the Han, then other people are going to think its okay to steal from me too and I just can’t have that.” He said with a shake of his head.
I opened my mouth to say that the joke had stopped being funny, when three other scars came skidding into the parking lot. I yelped, stumbling on a stray rock and Yoongi caught me, hands firm on my arms , drawing me into the warmth of his chest to keep me from falling.
“Careful, petal.” He breathed right against my ear and I froze staring at the men climbing out of the cars.
Now, these men, I could believe were capable of stabbing people.
They wore small dagger at their waist, the outline of pistol holsters on their sides and their thighs.
“Boss, it’s done. We got rid of him. He’ll be fish chow by the morning.” One of them said cheerfully.
Wait.
No.
No way.
This was a dream.
I had dozed off by the tampon aisle and I was having a fever dream.
“Excellent Jungkook-ah. Boys, say hello to my girlfriend, Shinhye.” Yoongi said casually.
I jumped, trying to get away but his arm came right around my shoulder, forearm resting on the swell of my breasts as he held me closely.
“ Your- your what?”
“Girlfriend. I haven’t met a girl this intriguing in a while and well, you’re quite easy on the eyes too…”
“I… I’m not… No.. Please…” I couldn’t quite form a coherent thought.
“Oh, petal , I’m sorry. I’m afraid I can’t accept that no. I’m going to pick you up for dinner tomorrow night at …well wherever you live. Our first date so wear something pretty yeah?” he nuzzled my neck.
Actually nuzzled it.
What the actual fuck.
“You’re insane. I’m not dating you!” I said shrilly.
“Eight O clock.” He hummed, still pressed right up against my back. The warmth of his body was ridiculously comforting in the chill night air.
Then before I could process what he was doing, one hand came up to curl over my chin in a gently grip, tilting my face back so I was looking up into his beautiful face.
“Don’t make me wait, petal.” He said softly, before reaching down and closing his lips over mine.
It was a soft kiss , over before I could even process it.
“You said you’re dangerous right baby? I’m dangerous too. Maybe together we can be absolutely terrifying , yeah?” he was laughing now.
And i wasn't.
Infact,
I was going to pass the fuck out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Author's note : this is just something fluffy and ridiculous to keep me sane while I write the angsty fics.

God is With You, Even as You’re Sinning
Pairing | Sam Winchester x reader
Summary | it was your first time not killing a monster, and in its place, taking the life of one of your own. Guilt entraps you, and it is up to Sam to break you out of your pitiful hypnosis.
Warnings | mentions of death, blood, angst, guilt, some smut, oral sex (fem receiving), penetrative unprotected sex, fingering, swearing, mentions of murder
Requested ✖️
Quick link to my masterlist, if you’re interested in reading more of my crap 😬
Tumblr media
Fuck God. This was all his fault, everything was to be fair. He had left the world to continue on its own accord, the apocalypse threatening to spill over the planet and destroy it and all beauty that was lingering through the existence of humans.
They killed each other, and the creator of all could care less. It was his smallest problem, he didn’t mind that the murderer was succumbed to guilt, or how many restless nights that he or she endured. God was cruel, even if he held up a facade of being your ally, and trying his hardest as he supposed, to be your friend.
Your hands shook as you remembered the entailment of your mistake. It was a slip up, a vast and surreal experience that people usually learned from. But what were you supposed to do, not kill a human again? Yeah you had gotten that, after all, the initial deed had not at all been intentional.
There was the victim’s blood dried upon the outer layer of your skin, casting you in the perfect image of murderous intent. However, you had no thirst to kill, instead, your hunting of monsters, alike to many others partaking in a similar lifestyle, executed the mythical beasts to protect the human population.
It pained you truly, to know that you had killed a person. You hadn’t even spared the familiar body a second glance, and out of panic, you fled the scene, leaving the body of the city cleaner in the gutter, laying in the remnants of his friends’ and family’s waste, burying him in their crude excrement.
The thought alone, and the sight that was engrained in the peripheral of your mind had you feeling sick. Slowly, you plodded down the steps of the bunker’s entrance, surely leaving footprints trademarked in all kinds of grotesque evidence.
Without much care for what lay heavily inside, you dropped your duffel from your shoulder, allowing it to fall on the ground with a disgruntled clatter. Nothing meant anything anymore, not if you were indeed a real killer. Whilst some monsters had weaselled their way into society, ending their pathetic attempts at normality was different than taking away the life of an innocent and mortal bystander.
Often, with the darker and crueler species, there were reasons as to why they pretended to be of human birth. Mostly, it was so that they could feed from the naive flock, or kill for their own amusement. Either way, none of their reasons were good.
But now, you thought of yourself as no different than them. A creature that needed to be put down for their crimes. Filing, you breathed in, only inhaling the various moulds of putridity that was weaved into your hair, and stuck to your skin like a face mask.
“Should I call you Cassie now?” At the joke, a laugh from the speaker was triggered. He was quite amused with the sight of you, and thus, you sneered at the tall man, hating him a little bit more than usual.
“Your pop culture references aren’t appreciated Winchester, it’s more Dean’s street.” Shoving past him, his high shoulder floundered back at the harsh and ignorant impact, an expression of offence covering his stupid face. Like a fawn, he tumbled after you, watching as you walked sullenly into the kitchen, yanking the door to the fridge open, and extracting one of his brother’s store bought beers.
“I’m going to guess the hunt went bad.” Sam speculated, shoving his hands into his jeans pockets, and staring expectedly down at where you popped the cap off the bottle recklessly with your teeth. He almost winced at the sight, but he wished to keep this arrogant demeanour up with you, it was a natural desire to piss you off, and he’d be pissed at himself if he let it slip out of simple pity.
“Guess correct. Well done, you’ve won a trip to Hawaii.” You waved your free hand mockingly in the air, as the other raised the liquor to your mouth, allowing you to wilfully gulp the bitter liquid down. At his presence that remained nursing over you, you cocked a brow, leaning forwards as you expectedly looked back at the moose. “Just leave me alone Sam, I’m not in the mood for putting up with your bullshit.”
He, however, seemed not to be phased by you wanting to be left alone, and instead, quickly snatched the poison out of your hand, leaving you throughly prepared to keep him right in the balls. “What the fuck?” You all but screamed at the not so jolly giant. In turn, he crossed his arms across his chest, placing the bottle down on the island.
“I could ask you the same y/n.” His tone was dominantly serious, causing you to cower back into your shroud of guilty conscience. “Tell me what happened on that hunt, of which i told you that you shouldn’t have went on alone, since you wouldn’t have been able to handle it solo.”
You felt demeaned by his words, they sparked an anger out from the firm pit of your stomach. But you knew deep down, he was getting through to you, which was something that you had not managed to even do by yourself. Air heavily passed through and out of your nostrils, as acidic tears pooled in your eyes; a crack was falling down your walls, and out of all people, it was Sam Winchester whom had caused it.
“You’re right, I shouldn’t have gone alone, but you know what, I thought of what a Winchester would do. And then I remembered, I am sure as hell not a Winchester and I don’t have a brother anymore! Not now, he didn’t even know who I was earlier, didn’t even recognise a single genetically identical hair on my head as he watched me parade through the town, the very one that I ran away from when he was a baby and I was seven, wanting to hunt a monster. Yet, i didn’t kill a damn monster Sam, I murdered my brother because you’ve been right all along, I’m not fit for this job. I am a mess, so congratulations, you finally have got me to admit the one thing that you keep reminding me of.”
“Y/n...” Sam wasn’t sure how to respond, he felt the waves of shock ripple through his body. Never so freely had you been vulnerable around him, and here you were now, with very visible tears cascading down your utterly torn face. He understood it was an accident, and the times that he and Dean had tried to kill each other under supernatural circumstances had him wondering what if.
Shaking your grime tethered head at the sound of his cracked voice, you stormed past him, and immediately raced towards the shower room, finding to your luck, which had been non existent during the rest of the day, the halls were barren of life. Walking through the door, you tore your ruined clothes off, chucking them upon the floor without much acknowledgement, before you went under the warm spray of the shower head, trying to calm yourself.
To rid your skin of its evidential accessories, you had to scrub your skin until it was immediately raw. Everything within you ached, as you flicked back to the memory of the clueless expression that had been worn by your blood brother. It was probably a good thing that he didn’t know who you were, or else, he’d have known that his own sister murdered him due to her incompetence to listen to others.
Now, you were not even sure what were your tears, and what droplets of water belonged to the shower itself. For over an hour, you basked int eh warmth that seemed unable to cure your cold blooded system, turning the spritz off, and covering your body in a fluffy towel, that you were sure belonged to someone else, but right now, you could care less about who owned what.
As you reached the door to your bedroom, you found it to be preached slightly open, and as you pushed it the rest of the way, you saw Sam sat on the corner of your bed. You held your arms around yourself, insecure on the fact that beneath the stolen towel, you were nothing more than you. A wolf in sheep’s skin.
“Can I help you?” You bitterly asked, your eyes still burning from your own faulted loss. Sam breathed in, his eyes trailing up to your face, that was naked from any gruesome cosmetics or make up. The bareness to your completion illustrated an aura of innocence, and evidence that you were the same as him - human.
“That’s my towel.” The male hunter laughed, in hopes of changing the previous and well wounded subjected to ensure that you felt better. But what was he kidding, nothing could fill the void that you had dug in your own heart, nothing was closer than the bond between siblings, even if you were considered as strangers.
“Take it back then.” Too exhausted from your gruelling day, you dropped the material, your confident action making his eyes go wide, as he tried to look away from your exposed skin to respect your boundaries. It was impossible though not to allow his hazel hues to slip up the trunks of your thighs, up to- no, that was wrong, very wrong.
You had just lost your brother, not to mention, by your own hand, and he was prone to checking out your freelancing body, taking in every curve and twisted scar that was prominent to his speculating eyes. His eyes dropped to the discarded towel, which he had purposely left on the heating rail for later use, and then, they switched back towards you.
He stood, walking behind you as you looked through comfort clothes within your dresser. A light touch of his hand brushed your hair away from your neck, as he breathed a sweet hoax of hot air upon your scare. Sam was relieved that you didn’t reject the contact, and instead, pressed his lips upon the flesh, finding succession whence you hummed deliriously to yourself.
This interaction had been inevitable for a long time, but now no longer were the suspected intentions for such an exchange to be to release well endorsed frustrations. No, he was going to clear your mind for some sensual moments, and make your pretty little head forget for a moment that you had pained yourself in the worst of ways.
Turning, you laced your hands through his chocolate locks, massaging his scalp as you pulled him closer so that your lips could endure a rougher clasp against his. There was no passion, behind each contribution there was a spur of hunger, he grasped your ass cheeks, pulling you up to be sat upon the top of your heavy dresser.
Obliging his command, you spread your legs so that he could stand between their partition, his hands now running up the windows of your thighs. For a while, the pair of you did nothing more than make out, and cup a feel here and there, but soon after, Sam dropped to his lanky knees, leaving kisses in the wake of his descent.
His thumb and forefinger spread your fluttering folds, watching as your slit squirmed for attention. Sam licked his lips at the sight, running his middle finger up the expanse, until he came to your yearning entrance. Slowly, after making sure you were wet enough, Sam slipped his digit inside, you wiggling your hips to adjust to the thrust of his one finger.
To add to the sensations that were overriding your body, he moved his mouth to closer proximity, smelling the divine aroma that pulsed out of you. It was far too addictive to not get a taste, and thus,he pulled his finger out, sucking off your juices contently.
But that small sample just wasn’t enough, which encouraged him to dive face first into your pussy - literally. His long tongue teased your folds, slurping at the lips, and then switching to your clit to heighten the stimulation. He kept up a rhythm, using it as a pattern to push you closer to that edge, and he was surely certain that you were enjoying his oral work as you ground your face against him, moaning at his succulent administrations.
“Sam.” Oh god, was it pleasant to hear his own name fall out your mouth in such an erotic manner. It was far different from the way that you usually used it to snide at him, though, the thought of your regular treatment of him aided only to spur his lustful actions on. He wanted you to cum, for your juices to run down his face in waterfalls, looking as though someone had tried to drown him.
His work would not be complete until you found it difficult to even pronounce his short name. Digging his tongue in the hood of your clit, tracing around the protective area, his fingers returned to their earlier placement, and he quickened their pace until he could hear a satisfying squelch in the air.
Rapid sounds of parted moans raked from your mouth, your chest sticking out as you breasts heaved with your heavy breathing. It was noticeable that you were close, not just from that, but you were squeezing the circulation out of his fingers. “Fuck.” Left you in the form of a squeal, as you pussy wept its juices.
Sam was quick to lap everything that left you up, once more, tasting those that clung to his fingers. He went back in for another taste, but you tightly grouped his hair, pulling him away from your sopping cunt. “Need you to fuck me Sam, now.”
In an instant, the hunter stood, working precariously on undoing the buckle of his belt, and pushing all material that covered his lower half to the bottom of his thighs. He read already hard, and oozing precum. You swept your finger across the tip of his dick, bringing it to your lips to taste his foreshadowing seed.
Sam huffed at the sight,picking his prick up in one hand, and jerking himself a couple of times. And then, he aligned himself with you, rubbing his cock around your wet crevice a couple of times, slapping his tip teasingly against your puffy clit.
“Want my cock baby?” He asked, smirking as he watched you nod your head repeatedly. With that being all the confirmation that he needed, he pushed into you,feeling even more turned on as he heard you mewl, and watched the ecstatic expression cross your face as his dick fit inside of you all the way.
He grasped your hips, pulling out once before pushing in again. He repeated the action, his own eyes rolling to the back of his head at how tight you were. This would make you forget the cruel method of god, his story was not as epic as he though, for his characters were screwing against his will, basking in a distraction rather than the regretful pain that seethed in your trodden heart.
Another thrust had your nails clasping onto Sam’s covered back, biting onto his shoulder through the plaid, as you held back the tears that were trying to creep out of your blissful eyes. A few grunts left Sam, as his pace increased, and with every thrust, which only served to fuel him further, the dresser smashed into the wall behind it, most likely leaving a decent dent within the historical architecture.
“Gonna cum.” You told him, dragging him in for another tongue filled kiss as your cunt pooled around him, coating his cock in the honey from your delicious pot. He soon followed after, and for a moment, he remained against you, allowing you to bask in the comfort of his strange presence.
And then he pulled out, watching as his distraction dripped from your entrance, trailing down your thigh in a white streak. An orgasm smile was pulled onto your face, but it was certain to not last long for when you returned to the reality that laid waiting for you to return.
Sam stepped closer again, moving his fingers towards your cunt, and pushed his seed back inside of you, watching as your puffy pussy lips swallows any part of him that it could get. He would distract you for as long as he could, and then, deal with the inevitable.

On the Benefits of Trancing
This is a bit late, but was in fact written for Day 2 of sgtober, Can't Sleep. It's very fluffy, have fun reading! 
Summary: There are several reasons why Essek prefers trancing over sleeping. Firstly, as difficult as it may be to leave yourself vulnerable for eight hours at a time, he finds it even more challenging to imagine his friends defenceless. Secondly, sleep, inevitably, will give birth to dreams. And no matter if they are foul or fair, they torture him all the same. And lastly, well—.Essek reminisces about the strange habit of sleeping and his even stranger habit of sharing his bed with Caleb whenever he can't sleep.
Warnings: None, as far as I’m aware
Read on AO3
Sleep is a curious thing, Essek muses, that he doesn't understand and hasn't particularly cared for up until this point. It is a childish thing, and wild and vulnerable and oh-so terribly time consuming. Truth be told, for most of his life he has pitied the other races who are forced to bow to the whims of nature in that way.
Like so many things, that changed when he met the Mighty Nein. Well, not when he met them necessarily—back then he may or may not have been quietly plotting their demise for returning his carefully stolen beacons—but certainly when he started travelling with them.
As many aspects of elven cultures are, trancing is a solitary activity, a silent contemplation of one's most private thoughts to better cope with them. Shock and surprise don't even begin to cover his feelings when Caleb first cast his dome and Essek found out that sleeping, as many things for the Mighty Nein, is a rather communal event.
He had eight whole hours to come to terms with those implications—did they not realise what it meant, the trust one had to place in another to sleep in front of them? Did they not care? Or did they, by some miracle, in fact trust him that much?
When he came out of his trance the next morning, he realised some of the members of the Nein had moved during the night, curling closer to and around each other. Cuddling, they called it, and Essek's pity melted away, turning into something more bitter, more poisonous. Envy.
There is something about sitting upright, floating a few inches off the ground while surrounded by people holding each other that can make you feel so incredibly lonely, and that has to say something. Nearly a century of solitude spent between too-large, too-empty towers, too-secretive and too-pious schools, and a too-scheming and too-paranoid court have never left him feeling as isolated and bereft as that morning with the Nein did.
Of course, back then he didn't have the words to describe the feelings swirling in his chest. Nor did he have the words to ask for them to include him in their affections, lest he be presumptuous. That, to quote Caleb Widogast, takes time. Surprisingly little of it, if he is perfectly honest.
A few months down the line, he stopped floating while trancing and when he resurfaced the next morning, he found himself leaning against Fjord, who had taken the last watch. When he jerked away in embarrassment, Fjord blinked awake, too, a disgruntled look on his face, growling that he should stop moving around so much.
Despite his shame, Essek complied and held completely still until the rest of the Nein woke up. After that, he began to dabble into the casual intimacy his friends share. He even tried to sleep, occasionally.
In the beginning, he felt very self-conscious about it. He would wake up with messy hair, or drool on his pillow, or, worst of all, tucked close to Caleb. Another effect of the Mighty Nein, though, is that they very quickly rid you of your sense of shame. So, he no longer cares if he looks a mess, if his clothes are rumpled, or if he's getting spit on Veth's backpack. Just the last thing he can't help but feel embarrassed about.
There are several reasons why he still prefers trancing, though. Firstly, as difficult as it may be to leave yourself vulnerable for eight hours at a time, he finds it even more challenging to imagine his friends defenceless. He much prefers being able to watch over them for at least half of that time.
Secondly, sleep, inevitably, will give birth to dreams. And if sleep is childish, wild, and vulnerable, dreams are tenfold so. He often contemplates his crimes during his trances, as well as the discarded timelines, the lost possibilities that could have led to even more death, destruction, and despair. He frequently considers members of the Assembly lording their victory over him, disposing of him, torturing his friends. However, in his trance, he can choose to abandon these timelines. Dreams offer no such luxury. Once in their cruel grasp, you have no choice but to see them through.
Nightmares are one thing, but dreams are another. Even the pleasant ones often come unbidden, worming themselves through his subconscious to pluck out— What exactly Essek should call them, he isn't sure. He wouldn't dare name them wishes or hopes, for that would imply a certain level of possibility for them to come true. These visions are desires, more like, though that term implies a certain passion that does not fit the circumstance.
These unsought fantasies often include the Mighty Nein, years or decades from now. How they would still seek him out, include him in their midst. He dreams of feasts and festivals, of hugs and humour, of truthfulness and trust. And then there are other, even more forbidden dreams featuring him and Caleb. He dreams of soft kisses and gentle caresses, lazy nights spent in the tower reading books, of research and adventures and normalcy, of waking up as close to each other every day as they do from time to time on accident. He would love his future to look like this, but he knows there is a very little chance for that.
So, no matter if the dreams are foul or fair, they torture him all the same.
And lastly, well—
There is a knock on his door and Essek's heart lurches. "Come in," he calls as calmly as he can manage, forcing himself to slowly close the book he hasn't been reading instead of slamming it shut and scrambling to his feet.
The door opens silently, as all doors within the tower do, and Caleb slips inside. He's wearing simple sleeping clothes and Essek silently curses himself for already closing the book, so he can't even pretend to read that instead. "I, ah— I'm sorry for intruding... again," Caleb says, self-consciously tugging at his sleeves. "I hope I didn't wake you?"
"Not at all," he answers, barely keeping himself from saying: 'I was waiting up.' Instead, he opts for: "I was still reading."
"Anything interesting?"
"Are you trying to tell me that you have stored uninteresting books in your mind, Caleb Widogast?"
"Plenty," he deadpans and Essek chuckles.
"It's called The Creation of Silver." He turns the plain cover over to Caleb, to jog his memory. Based on what he could gather by skimming the first pages, it promises to be a rather run of the mill romance novel following the story of a Dwendalian noble trying to escape their arranged marriage. "So far, I find it quite entertaining."
"Ah, yes." Caleb quickly glances away, a faint blush colouring his cheeks. "Have you reached the part where Stefan leaves for the city yet?"
"I have not."
"Then I will not spoil you." Another tug on his sleeve. "The plot really picks up at that point."
Essek tilts his head to the side, studying Caleb. According to the clock in his room, it is past midnight, which is quite late for the human to still be awake. Yet, he is just hovering in his doorway, caught between stepping inside and leaving again. "I presume you did not come here to discuss my evening reading matter."
"Ah..." He tugs at his sleeves again. "No, I did not." As always, Caleb is as incapable of voicing his needs as Essek is.
Thankfully, Essek is not nearly as apprehensive when it comes to his friends' well-being as he is when his own is concerned. "Should you have trouble sleeping, you know you are more than welcome to stay. Seeing as we are to make progress tomorrow, I am very invested in you having a restful night."
Not being able to sleep is another thing about that practice that Essek cannot understand. Trancing is a matter of will, discipline, and tranquillity and he's always assumed sleep to be the same. He supposes it is, to some degree.
But travelling with the Mighty Nein, and Caleb specifically, has taught him that you cannot force sleep. There are circumstances under which they will toss and turn for hours, unable to find rest. Not even Beau's meditation, which he considered relatively close to his trance, seemed capable to calm a disturbed mind enough for sleep.
He has, however, also discovered that for certain members of the Mighty Nein, certain methods will accomplish the necessary peace of mind. Caduceus' tea appears to be able to work miracles, time and time again. Beauregard likes to tire herself out by running drills, while Jester usually draws in her sketchbook. Yasha tends to make flower crowns or, lacking flowers, braid other people's hair. Essek has been subjected to that numerous times so far and despite his aversion to Dynasty braids, he doesn't hate it. Fjord usually ties sailor's knots, and Veth sorts through her various collections.
Caleb, though? Caleb, for some reason, only needs another person to fall asleep next to. And for some reason, despite the numerous options he has, he chooses Essek more often than not. Not that he's complaining, of course. In fact, he may enjoy it a little too much.
Caleb laughs quietly as he often does at their antics. They have long since learned the rules to this strange game they are playing. "Well, if you put it like this..." he says as he rids himself of his slippers—Hausschuhe, he has explained to Essek, a very important part of Zemnian culture—and puts them next to Essek's. "I would hate to disappoint you, Herr Thelyss."
'You couldn't,' he thinks as he pulls back the covers. Instead, he says: "Indeed." As always, he freezes in place when Caleb joins him on the bed, scooting closer until they are nearly touching. Being this close to each other is not getting any less mortifying, no matter how long it has been since Caleb first came knocking on his door.
He still remembers that night in vivid detail. As so often, Essek has been reading and just got up to get a cup of tea. When he stepped out of his rooms, he nearly collided with a wizard who had convinced himself that his suffering wasn’t important enough to trouble him with. “Do you want to come in?” he said to his own surprise. To his even bigger surprise, Caleb accepted.
They sat on Essek’s couch and talked about everything and nothing at once. Hours later, with his throat gone dry, Essek asked: “Shouldn’t you be asleep by now?” The moments the words left his mouth he knew he’d said something wrong.
Caleb shot to his feet as if burned and Essek followed suit. “I am so sorry, friend. I will not continue to disturb you any—”
“Where are you going?” he interrupted him, perhaps a little irritated. “Give me some credit, Caleb Widogast; I am capable of far subtler ways to rid myself of an unwelcome visitor. Which you are not.”
He laughed self-consciously and said: “Regardless, I should go and rest. Schlaf gut, Herr Thelyss.”
“You could stay,” he blurted out before he could stop himself. “I mean—I noticed your sleep to be more restful when you are around others. I am aware that I am not your first choice, but since the others are not here—You’re welcome to stay, if it at all helps.”
Caleb hesitated. “Are you sure?”
“Certainly.”
“In Ordnung,” he answered finally. Essek is still glad he had thought to float for that conversation. That way, at least, his knees didn’t give out.
A short discussion about who should take the bed followed before they stubbornly agreed to share it. Essek came to regret that immediately after when he was confronted with the practical implications of ‘sharing a bed’.
“Make yourself at home,” he said. Caleb took some time to rearrange the pillows and blankets—just like he does now—while Essek hovered nearby. Literally.
It took several reminders from Caleb for Essek to not instinctively recast his floating cantrip, but eventually they managed to lie down next to each other with a minimal amount of awkwardness. They have moved past that initial apprehensiveness by now, Essek thinks while he pretends to read. Shortly after, Caleb flops down, close enough that Essek can feel his breath ghosting over his cheeks.
“Good night, Caleb Widogast,” Essek says, stubbornly staring at the pages and nowhere else. "Do you want me to dim the lights?" He doesn't need them anyways; he just likes to appreciate the room Caleb made for him in all of its colours.
"No, I think I would like to read a bit. I am quite fond of that book."
"You are?" Essek looks down to him in surprise. ‘If Caleb tilts his head,’ the thought hits him, ‘he could rest it on my shoulder.’ He just thought it to be one of the countless books Caleb has read in his life, nothing special. "Why?"
He blushes again. "Ah— I think you'll see. The title is more literal than one would assume."
He considers the book once more, trying to discern what Caleb means with his words. ‘Luxon help me,’ he sends a silent prayer. It wouldn’t be the first time for him to pick up a romance novel that turns out to be quite a bit more explicit than anticipated. To think that such a mistake may have happened to him with Caleb so close—He thinks he might just combust from embarrassment.
"Do you mind flipping the page?" Caleb asks with a yawn, startling Essek out of his thoughts.
"Oh, of course," he says belatedly and turns the page. He hasn't read the last one yet, but nor has he read the one before, so it hardly matters. The novel has a rather shallow plot, so he has no trouble picking it up three pages later, and he's done so by design.
“Thank you.” He yawns again, louder this time and burrows down further into his pillows. “Gute Nacht, mein Schatz,” he mumbles and freezes as if he only now realises what he said. He seems to wait for an answer, but when Essek fails to provide a wrong one, he just smiles up at him and says: “Schlaf wohl und g’sund, bis morgen früh’s Kaffeele kommt.”
“I don’t understand you,” Essek tells him just as quietly, “but you can translate tomorrow.” After a moment of hesitation, he adds in Undercommon: “Sweet dreams, my dear. I’ll be here when you wake up.” He quickly glances back at his book before he can do anything stupid. Such as regret his words. Or kiss him goodnight.
Still, with Caleb reading along he does his best to at least somewhat read the novel. It’s a very flowery language, occasionally dropping Zemnian words Essek doesn’t know. Judging by Caleb’s grumbling at least some of them appear to be wrong. The protagonist, Stefan, seems like quite the bore. He does have a strong motivation, he supposes, to escape from the dreary life that awaits him in his arranged marriage. Besides that, and his general cold-hearted demeanour, he can’t discern any defining characteristics.
He finally reaches the part Caleb asked him about—Stefan leaving for the big city—when another character is introduced, presumably his love interest. He appears to be about as compelling as the protagonist, until— Essek snorts quietly. “Caleb Widogast,” he chides softly, “is this a love story about wizards?”
At first, he doesn’t answer and Essek briefly considers the option of Caleb wilfully ignoring him. Then, there’s a barely audible snore. When he glances down in surprise, the human is leaning against his shoulder, soundly asleep. He noisily chews on a strand of his hair, a bit of drool dripping onto Essek’s shoulder.
For a moment he can’t help but stare, a dopey smile on his face. He quickly arrives at the conclusion that something as disgusting as that has absolutely no business being as endearing as it is. But for some reason he doesn’t mind at all.
Moving carefully and slowly, in order not to disturb Caleb’s sleep, he puts down The Creation of Silver. It is getting rather late and he probably should begin his trance, if he wants to wake before Caleb's inevitable departure.
He leans back, wiggling a bit to find a comfortable position. He thinks he's doing a good job of not rousing Caleb until the human grunts quietly. Essek freezes, fearing he may have woken him, but instead of opening his eyes, Caleb just shifts closer to him, throwing an arm and a leg across his lap to hold him tight.
Essek looks down at his... friend with a fond expression. After a moment of consideration, he reaches down to brush the strand of hair behind his ear.  
Sometimes, he feels like he can barely contain all the love he feels for this man within himself. One day, perhaps, he might even find the courage to tell him so.
Zemnian Translations:
Hausschuhe - slippers. In fact a Very Important German thing. Can't wear your normal shoes indoors, so you need special house shoes. Schlaf gut, Herr Thelyss. - Sleep well, Mister Thelyss. Gute Nacht, mein Schatz. -  Good night, my darling. (lit. treasure) Schlaf wohl und g'sund, bis morgen früh's Kaffeele kommt. - Sleep well and sound until tomorrow morning the little coffee arrives. (My Caleb is Suebian now and I don't take criticism. I was writing this when I suddenly remembered this sentence my parents used to say to me and I thought if my sleep deprived brain remembers things like that, it would only be appropriate if Caleb's did too.)

inconsistent flowers: part vi
Druig x Makkari
Part 6 of __: sunflowers part ii
Tags: Flower Shop AU, Modern AU, No Powers, Canon Divergence
Summary: Druig is a cantankerous flower shop owner trying to get through his day. Makkari just wanted flowers for her new apartment. Or the flower shop AU no one asked for.
Chapter Summary: 
Druig hovered at the barrier of the door. His usual arrogant demeanor was interrupted by the nervous brushing of his hair. Makkari headed over to him, ready to invite him in and save him from Sersi’s botch attempt at an interrogation, when she spied what he held in his other hand. A small white box and…
Sunflowers.
TW: cursing
Word count: 2453
A/N: Hello readers!I'm so sorry for the hiatus! I got into grad school and it's just been absolutely insane. I've had to steal time to write this chapter - but I really wanted to slip in a few fluffy Drukkari moments before we get back to plot - so enjoy!
Tumblr media
“I’m just saying. I cleaned up your coffee cup last week when you left it in the sink,” Dane counted another one off on his fingers, “And I ran your load of laundry with mine yesterday - and folded it!” Makkari could read the indignation on his lips and fought to hide her amusement.
Makkari shrugged, dipping a spoon into her penne vodka sauce, and tasting it quickly before throwing in some more basil.
“Yes Dane, but you’re not a gorgeous Irishman with luscious lips and blue eyes,” Sersi chuckled.
Dumpling barked in agreement, drawing Makkari’s attention to give him a quick scratch as Dane rushed over, stealing a piece of cooling garlic laffa bread and throwing a piece of plain bread to his four-legged co-conspirator.
Thief, Makkari signed accusingly, as Dumpling eagerly devoured the piece of bread with his signature slobber.
I have to say - I’m somewhat in agreement, Makkari. It’s a bit early to pull out the penne vodka, Sersi signed and grumbled lightly.
“And the bread too!” Dane inserted, “I can’t believe blue eyes and an accent is enough for the flower shop man to receive Makkari’s elixir of the gods instead of her best friends.”
Well, his lips are fairly luscious too… Makkari lowered her hand thoughtfully and chuckled at Dane’s scoff of annoyance as he listened to Sersi’s translation. She set the sauce to simmer.
We’ll finally see how luscious they really are, Sersi tapped her shoulder playfully as she passed Makkari to pour herself a glass of water.
Makkari rolled her eyes, stirring the penne noodles in their roiling boil. You really don’t have to stay to meet him.
Of course we do, Sersi set her glass down on the small island, and signed fiercely, He could still be a complete serial killer - charming florist or not. He could be luring women in, using their bodies as fertilizer. He could be grinding them up at the back of the shop -
I’ve given him quite a number of opportunities to get rid of me and he hasn’t taken the bait. Makkari interrupted Sersi’s spiral into her bloody fantasy. I wouldn’t hold my breath at being the next BBC feature story.
“The Deadly Obsessions podcast says that most women are killed by their long-term partner,” Dane chimed in, finally accepting that he likely would not be able to eat Makkari’s masterpiece tonight, “It can take years for them to snap.”
I think you both consume way too much true crime content. And if anything, doesn’t that mean that you’re the most suspect person in the room right now, Makkari raised her eyebrow at Dane.
“Don’t look at me! Sersi’s the one who’s already planned the perfect murder.”
The Deadly Obsessions Instagram has great tips, Sersi shrugged, Regardless, Phastos would absolutely murder me - or at least invent some sort of medieval torture device for me - if I wasn’t here. Have you told him about Druig yet?
Makkari winced, Haven’t gotten around to it yet.
Makkari expertly evaded Sersi’s disapproving gaze, and focused on adding more chili flakes to the sauce.
“Are you sure you don’t want to slow down on those, Makkari? Not everyone is a capsaicinophile like you,” Dane raised an eyebrow as Makkari continued to add pinches of flakes, continuing to studiously avoid Sersi’s gaze.
Makkari cleared her throat and put down the seasoning, I’m sure it’s fine! She signed, waving off the smoky fumes wafting from the sauce, spice of life and all, as they say. She chuckled nervously, blinking quickly to dissipate the tears from her burning eyes.
She moved over to strain the noodles, pouring the boiling water in the sink when the knock at the door surprised her, causing her to almost drop the pot.
I’ll get it! Sersi signed quickly.
No! I can - Sersi was already gone before Makkari could finish signing. She could imagine a cartoonish plume of smoke that followed in her wake. Damn she moved fast.
Makkari hurridley moved to the door with Dane and Dumpling at her back.
Druig hovered at the barrier of the door. His usual arrogant demeanor was interrupted by the nervous brushing of his hair. Makkari headed over to him, ready to invite him in and save him from Sersi’s botch attempt at an interrogation, when she spied what he held in his other hand. A small white box and…
Sunflowers.
The swoop in her stomach nearly swept her off of her feet.
She couldn’t see what Sersi was asking him, but she could see Druig’s uncomfortable answers that made her want to laugh.
“...just dinner…”
“...no expectations at all…”
“...my intentions…whatever Makkari wants to do…”
Makkari decided to save him, placing a hand on Sersi’s shoulder.
Alright? She questioned, holding two thumbs up.
Druig finally caught sight of her, Alright. He confirmed.
They stared at each other for a moment before Druig started, suddenly remembering the bouquet in his hands. He held it out and Makkari took it.
Finally made good on my promise then, Druig signed, twisting this closed fist and thumb to the left.
Makkari took a moment to examine the bright yellow blooms and smell their fresh sweetness. She set the flowers down on the end table nearby.
That you did, Makkari grinned. She looked around, Well, you’ve met S-E-R-S-I, my roommate. That’s D-A-N-E, her boyfriend. And you already know about Dumpling, our dog.
Dane raised his hand in greeting and extended it to shake Druig’s, “Cheers mate.”
Druig shook Dane’s hand, “How are you?”
Dane nodded. Dumpling crept out against her legs, sniffing at Druig’s feet. Druig smiled and knelt down to pet him.
Well! Makkari clapped, Isn’t it date night for you both?
We were having such scintillating conversation, Makkari, Sersi protested as Makkari shoved her coat in her hands and ushered Sersi and Druig out the door.
Have scintillating conversation about the Paleozoic exhibit you just helped curate, Makkari signed frantically above Sersi and Dane’s protests.
But Makkari - Sersi signed.
Have fun! Makkari rubbed her palms together and shut the door.
She turned around to see Druig rubbing the belly of an ecstatic Dumpling who was sprawled out and early licking at his arm.
He’s ridiculous, Makkari chuckled with fondness.
“It’s nothing I can’t handle,” Druig gave one last pat before standing up.
Come on - dinner’s almost done.
Makkari knew her kitchen was small, but she considered it to be “cozy” instead. She had already cleared the used dishes into the sink alongside various knick knacks that had accumulated throughout the week. She could see Druig’s gaze caught on the vase of mildly wilting hyacinths left on the table…and then drift to the various vases filled with his flowers placed haphazardly around the apartment.
Druig cleared his throat into his fist briefly, “Your apartment seems…rather decorated already.”
Makkari turned away, lowering the heat on the pasta and taking a moment to temper the blush that rose to her cheeks. She spun back around, Don’t be cheeky about it. We’re very overprotective plant mums here.
A smile tugged on the corner of Druig’s lips, I can absolutely see that. Truly honoured to be your supplier for your plant children.
Makkari rolled her eyes with her grin betraying her amusement. This was nice. Having Druig here in her apartment. Of course, she had friends over to her apartment briefly in the past, and obviously Dane was here fairly regularly, but she had never invited anyone that was hers in the way that she wanted Druig to be.
There was a certain intimacy in having him in her space, standing in the area in which she rushed about every morning and wound down in the evenings with her friends. The brief awkwardness at the door had melted away and they were bantering like usual. She liked it.
Well, make yourself useful and grab the plates from the cabinet there.
“I wouldn’t dare offend the hostess,” He quipped, as he moved past her to set the table.
Makkari portioned out the pasta, and they sat down at the small, cracked wooden dining table that Sersi had found online months ago for a steal.
“I have to admit that I have high expectations,” Druig warned, piercing his fork into a few noodles and being sure to soak them wholly in the sauce.
And I’ll exceed them, Makkari sniffed, watching closely as he placed the forkfull in his mouth.
His blank expression as he chewed worried her. But she wasn’t going to break. Dane and Sersi had once snuck her into the bone vault at the Museum if she agreed to make her pasta for them every weekend for a month. It was good. And she knew it.
At least, she thought she knew until Druig began coughing, his face turning a flushed red as he grabbed for the water.
Oh shit.
You don’t have to eat it if you don’t like it! She signed frantically. She reached over and snatched an empty plate, shoving it in front of him. Shit, was Dane right? Maybe she did add a little too much -
Druig’s choked grumble broke through her anxious rambling thoughts. He coughed again, his eyes watering and a flush spreading across his face. “It’s good -” He sucked in a quick breath, “Delicious, really.”
Makkari walked over to the fridge and poured a glass of milk, handing him the glass.
That unfortunately sounds mildly sarcastic at the moment.
“Not at all,” Druig gasped. He downed the milk in three large gulps.
Makkari watched him, drumming her fingers anxiously on the table, I should have been more careful about spice levels, She furrowed her brow, Sorry - I’m used to cooking for my family and Sersi - and she can probably swallow hot coals if she wanted to.
Druig tipped his head back. Makkari could see his Adam’s apple bob against the thin white of his neck as he attempted to regain his composure, “You’ll have to excuse my delicate Irish tastebuds.”
Makkari snorted and smirked, I suppose I can forgive your ancestral weakness.
“How very kind of you,” Druig smirked, “How did you find this recipe?”
I’m shit at cooking - pasta is one of the few things that I can make without risking the entire building burning down.
“You’re…?”
Oh sorry, I’m terrible at cooking. I guess your class doesn’t cover vulgarity, Makkari signed apologetically.
Druig chuckled, No. not really a priority. We just finished shopping for clothing. I can now ask a shop clerk, how much are those trainers? he signed slowly. “I suppose I have to depend on you to get the real beauty of the language.” He mimicked her sign for “shit,” dragging his pointer and middle finger down his face.
Makkari smirked, pulling out her phone.
They had gone through a fair list of expletives. At some point, Makkari gently directed Druig’s palm as he attempted to sign the word “fuck,” and the warmth of his skin in comination with the piercing look that he sent her way made those damned swoops sweep through her stomach yet again.
She pushed the chipped plate piled high with garlic and plain laffa bread.
There’s always bread…or we could always order takeaway.
Druig shook his head. He ripped off a piece of garlic laffa bread and popped it in his mouth. He chewed for a moment, and closed his eyes, sighing. This is delicious, He signed, Dinner of Champions, really.
Come off it, Makkari chuckled, spearing a fork in her pasta and eating it without any problem, it was terrible for you.
Maybe, but I’d argue it’s greatly improved now, Druig shrugged, Besides, we always have dessert.
Makkari raised her fork in agreement.
The small white box turned out to be a bread pudding that they had decided to share alongside two cups of steaming coffee on the small balcony that rose high above the street.
Makkari took a sip of coffee, enjoying the contrasting bitterness with the sweetness of the pudding. She watches the glow of the late-night stores and pubs and the stream of people that moved through the streets. She turned to see Druig, his face illuminated by the street light, watching her, his eyes soft.
It was something entirely new and familiar at the same time. This warmth that echoed through her as she returned his gaze.
“You know, you don’t have to buy flowers every time you visit the shop? You can just come and…talk,” Druig raised his eyebrows.
I’ll keep that in mind.
“If you really wanted something, you could just ask. I’ll probably give it to you.” Druig couldn’t meet her eye as he played with a piece of bread pudding.
Makkari’s breath caught. Not a very good business model if you ask me.
“What can I say? I live life on the fiscal edge. Call it a favorite customer discount then.”
Makkari smiled.
My mum would appreciate all of the flowers - she’s a legitimate horticulturist, Makkari snorted, She’s been dismayed at the status of all of mine recently.
There’s promise there, Druig shrugged and signed, And you can tell her that’s from a professional.
Much appreciated, Makkari shoved at his shoulder. Druig chuckled.
There was a comfortable beat of silence.
What about your mum? Makkari tapped one hand against her palm hesitantly, Has she ever seen your shop?
Druig paused, resting his spoon on the plate, No…she’s never visited. My family is… ”complicated, if you haven’t already noticed.”
Makkari raised an eyebrow and nodded, Where is she now? Is she with your brother?
Druig shrugged, Last time I heard, she was back in Ireland. My brother is probably there too. I…I didn’t really look behind me when I left. He kept his eyes cast downward, focusing on picking apart a piece of pudding.
Makkari sat forward, reaching out to wrap a hand around his wrist briefly, ceasing his fidgeting. You’ve made an entire life for yourself here, she signed, recalling his words, I’m so glad you did.
He turned, moving closer, “I’m glad I did too,” Makkari read on his lips.
The kiss was slow and sweet. Much like the cooling bread pudding in front of them. Makkari closed her eyes, relishing in the feel and taste of something she had yearned for. Druig’s hand was soft on her face, and she could feel the calluses of years of lifting and arranging and working. It made a fission of heat twist violently in her stomach.
The kiss slowed down naturally, and Druig leaned back to break it. She could see the raggedness of his breath stagger his chest.
Finally. Makkari signed, grinning.
I was trying to be a gentleman!
Don’t be.
And under streetlight that was so soft, Makkari could’ve mistaken it for moonlight, Druig kissed her once again.

A/N: No interesting historical facts in this chapter unfortunately - but they're on the horizon! Also, I definitely get nervous when someone comes over to my apartment for the first time - it's such a weirdly intimate moment, but that might just be me. Also, I wanted to give Sersi and Dane a little more character than they've were given in the movie and make them interact a little more like a real couple? I'm so sad we didn't get to see their relationship more!
Bread pudding rocks.
Let me know what you think!

SSA Hotchner: chapter 3 - undercover
TW: fluffy cuddling stuff, talk about a case (basic criminal minds stuff), talk about sexual assault, asphyxiation.
WC: 5,277
series masterlist
————————————————————————
it was now your first day of official work at the bau. once you walked through those doors everything was official. at least, as official as they could be since this was a trial run. regardless, you were a mixture of excited and nervous.
this could be the beginning of your dream job for you, or the exact opposite. it could be the beginning of the end of the job you've longed for since you were young.
thanks to a lot of visits to the bau since you were fired, you knew the routine of the others pretty well. you knew how they liked their coffee, what their favorite lunch spots were, and you kind of knew what they liked to do to help them unwind from a case.
jj liked to go home to her kids and will. she enjoyed the comfort of them, and needed the reassurance that not everything was dark and gloomy in the world she got when they ran up to with smiles on their faces. either that or a girls night with emily and penelope.
emily liked spending time with you. or really, just her loved ones. you helped ground her and aid her in the process of unwinding from all the stress that occurred during her time away. sometimes she would even just spend time with jj or aaron when you weren't available in the past.
penelope needed to rid her brain of the terrible images that crossed her screen on a daily basis. she needed to remind herself of the positivity and good things in the world that would be blind-sided by said images on her screen. in order to achieve this, she would spend time with emily or jj or morgan. she would often try to spend time with spencer as well, which he would be delighted in.
morgan liked going home to savannah. he would go home and not only relax himself, but also help his love relax after a long day in the er. he wanted to make sure they were both doing well, so they'd stay up cuddled on the couch most of the night just staring at the blank tv screen or talking about their days.
rossi liked the simpler things in life, so just going back to his mansion, cooking himself some pasta, popping open a bottle of red, maybe lighting a cigar, and he was perfect.
aaron liked spending time with jack and you. he, much like jj, wanted to be around his closest family and have that reassurance that they were okay.
spencer... had trouble unwinding from a case. when he got back, he would call his mom and on her good days he would tell her about how they stopped the bad guy and saved someone, on her bad days, it made his arrival even worse.
if the case didn't end well, the news that his mom wasn't doing well either was just the cherry on top of the worst sundae you could imagine.
so whether the days were good, or bad, he lost himself in books. he read, and read, and read. sometimes he would play chess against himself, or practice the keyboard, or spend time with penny.
after the most recent case, however, he called you.
"h-hey, y/n," he greeted shakily. he didn't really know why he called you. he wanted to talk to you after the case, next thing he knew he was boarding the jet with your voice in his ear.
"spencer! hi," you replied happily. "is the case over?" you wondered, closing the book you had been reading on your couch.
"yea, yea it's over now," he answered. "i was just um, wondering if you'd want to... i don't know. hang out? we're about to take off on the jet and should get back home in about an hour if there are no complications," he quickly asked, partially fearing the answer. he had talked himself up to asking you something all day. he wanted to talk to you, he just didn't really know how to start the conversation.
"umm, sure," you smiled against the phone. "do you want to come to my place? it's not too far from the bau."
"really?"
"yea, really. i'll send you the address and the gate code to come in," you informed him.
"okay, y-yea. do you want me to pick anything up? food? movie?" he asked as he settled into his seat on the jet, never being more grateful that he had gotten there especially early.
"snacks maybe? i have some movies here we could watch."
"sounds great! i'll uhm, i'll see you then."
"alright, see ya," you hung up the phone.
when spencer arrived, he had in hand a container of jello and rice crispy treats. you welcomed him inside, showing him where the kitchen was and giving him a tour of your house.
you ended up both settling on the couch, watching a french film you had gotten a while back, never bothering to watch it - subtitles were never really your thing. but now that you had spencer as a translator for what you couldn't understand, you would watch the movie over and over as long as he was there.
because he was your translator, you had to sit relatively close to each other. he was by the arm rest, you dangerously close to him. you could smell the scent of coffee off of his shirt, the sweet but masculine cologne wafting around you.
"je te promets que je ne te quitterai jamais," spencer whispered in your ear. "vous n'avez plus jamais a vous sentir seul. vous n'avez plus jamais a avoir peur. parce que je t'aime. je t'ai toujours aime. votre beauté est indescriptible. pas seulement à l'extérieur, car il y a là aussi une beauté incommensurable, mais purement dans votre âme. votre âme irradie le genre de beauté dont on ne parle que dans les romans pour fantasmer. seule la beauté qui vient de votre âme est si pure et désirable parce qu'elle est réelle."
"well that sounds very lovey-dovey, huh?"  you whispered back, leaning into his ear slightly.
"uhm," he cleared his throat. "i promise i'll never leave you. you'll never be lonely again. you don't have to be afraid ever again. because i love you. i've always loved you. your beauty is..." he looked into your eyes as he spoke the next lines. "your beauty is indescribable. not just on the outside, because there is immeasurable beauty there also, but purely in your soul. your soul radiates the kind of beauty most only ever read about in novels to fantasize about. only the beauty that comes from your soul is so pure and desirable because it's real."
"wow, that um," you took a deep breath, gazing into his hazel eyes wondrously. "that sure is something out of a romance novel."
"y-yea. this movie is based off of a french novel, actually," he clarified, ruining the moment the two of you were sharing, probably for the better.
"i would expect nothing less," you smiled, scooting closer and resting your head on his shoulder. "i-is this okay?" you felt him taking a deep breath as he settled into your touch.
"yea, it's okay," he wrapped his arm around your shoulder, inevitably pulling you closer to him.
you two fell asleep like that, curled into each other. you didn't bother finishing the movie all too much after what happened, even though it wasn't much. when you awoke, your head was rested on his chest as your arms were wrapped around your torso. spencer's head was rested atop yours, his arms around your shoulders protectively. your legs were tangled together as you lay on top of him.
you never wanted to get up, scared that this would be a dream and last night wasn't real. the only thing promising the reality of last night was his touch on you right then. nevertheless, everything must come to an end eventually.
now, you wondered what your coping mechanism would be.
would you spend time with others? or would you retreat to your lonesome to hide from the darkness that surrounded everything? only time would tell, and time decided to let you figure that out relatively quickly because you had gotten your first case on your first day. great.
luckily, you had your go bag in your car, and were ready for basically anything.
"alright. this case is another doosy. if you thought the last one was creepy, this one... yikes," peneloped started to bridge into the briefing. "so there's been a string of murders along the west coast that have basically every college woman afraid for their lives. the girls were taken after college parties, missing for 8 days, and found wrapped entirely in plastic wrap and posed like... well just check your tablets," she motioned on the table at our devices.
"any evidence of-" morgan began.
"sexual assault? absolutely," penny quickly answered.
"the girls have what looks like ligature marks on their wrists and neck, strangulation maybe?" spencer spoke up.
"cause of death was asphyxiation, so that's a possibility," you relayed. "it's a really personal act. he wants to feel the life just... leave their bodies."
"we'll be able to figure more out when we analyze the crime scenes and the bodies. wheels up in 15," your bother announced promptly before you all rose and left the room.
one the plane ride there, you received information that yet another body was found. you and spencer were instructed to go to the morgue to analyze the new body and the previous ones.
obviously, you drove to the morgue.
looking at the bodies, something about there resemblance shocked you. you couldn't pinpoint what they reminded you of, but it was something. regardless, you had to focus.
the marks on their necks is what caused their death, strangulation. they had been restrained at the hands but not the ankles, so you thought there was probably a chain on the ceiling.
you were still trying to figure out what the bodies reminded you of, until the m.e. spoke up.
"y'know, this might be odd, but you kind of look like the victims. i mean the hair, bone structure, height, build, even eye color," she said, squinting her eyes at you as if she were studying your appearance. "sorry, that is kind of weird," she said as she blinked away from you.
"so that's where i recognize them," you whispered to yourself.
"you saw it too?" spencer asked, turning to face you.
"i mean, i thought they looked familiar but i just didn't know where from. apparently they just remind me of a mirror," you joked, nobody else finding it very funny. "right, serious."
"does that not worry you?" the m.e. asked confused.
"well, i'm not really a college girl that's going to parties, now am i?" you asked in return, not finding where the worry should settle in.
"you'll be okay. besides, i doubt hotch would let anything bad happen to you," spencer agreed.
"and i can take care of myself," you replied. "i'm not just hotch's little sister. i've earned my spot on the team and can fight my own battles when necessary," you sassed back at spencer.
"i-i didn't mean to make it sound like you couldn't. i w-was just trying to uhm, mention that he woul-wouldn't... i'll just stop talking now," he pressed his lips into a thin line, shoving his hands into his pockets.
"good idea, genius," you said, patting his chest comfortingly as you gave him a pretty smile. "now, i think we're done here."
"yup. you're right," spencer agreed.
"wow, you're a quick learner," you laughed as you made your way to the exit.
"you two are such a cute couple," the m.e. told spencer before he left behind you.
"i wish," he sighed with a smile before following you out of the door, glad you couldn't hear any of what just happened.
later that night, you were all sitting in the makeshift conference room, trying to piece together enough information for a profile. apparently there wasn't much information found at the crime scenes since the bodies were just placed there randomly.
spencer was instructed to build a geographical profile while the rest of the team delivered the behavioral profile.
once spencer had finished the geo profile, you had given all of the aspects to add to her search. sadly, you still had around 10 suspects that could be your unsub.
so now, sitting at the table with our team, you were all out of ideas. except for morgan.
"okay, guys i hate to say this, but i think we're all thinking it," he spoke up. "y/n looks like the victims."
"no. we aren't going there," aaron spoke up.
"aaron, come on. you know it's not a bad idea," you replied, trying to calm him down before he blew up.
"no. it's a terrible idea. it's your first case, and you've never gone undercover like this before. absolutely not," he rebuted.
"actually, i have gone undercover before," you spoke up. "you forget i used to be a lawyer. i had to be cutthroat in order to prove myself, so i would go undercover to try and get the most information i could. and most of the times, i went undercover with dangerous, narcissistic men. i just didn't tell you because i knew how you'd react," you finished.
"what?" he replied with anger. "regardless, i don't want you to be out with a murderer who rapes and kills women that look like you."
"you really think i haven't done that before? aaron, i can handle myself and you know it," you were getting more and more frustrated by the second.
"let's just all get some rest and discuss this tomorrow," he angrily stood up and exited the room, the rest of the team following him to the cars to go to the motel.
you sighed and dropped your head into your hands. you felt a hand on your shoulder, looked up to find spencer smiling awkwardly at you as he sat in the seat beside you.
"you belong here, y'know," spencer reassured you. "i-i try not to profile the team, but i don't think it takes a profiler to realize when someone's trying to prove themself," he said as he removed his hand from your shoulder, opting to put it in his lap instead.
"i know i do, it's just frustrating when i know that he just wants to protect me. i mean, he always has since we were younger and my dad would... he always would protect me," you corrected yourself. "i just wish he would realize i'm not a little girl anymore."
"i think he knows that. i mean, you've worked so hard to get where you are now, i think it'd be hard not to realize that," spencer replied firmly. "he'll come around."
"i hope so," you agreed. "we should probably go before the decide to just not get us any rooms."
"right," he said as he followed you out of the room, hopping in the passenger seat of the car as you drove the both of you to the motel. when you parked in the lot, you checked your phone to see if anyone sent you both the passcodes to get into your rooms.
a<3: sorry about earlier. i know you can handle yourself. i just don't want you to get hurt. also, you're rooming with reid. room number 4 and the code is 9836. if he tries anything i won't hesitate to put him on restriction.
you: i understand, and thank you. also, i doubt he'd try anything, but ME on the other hand... ;)
"so, looks like it's your lucky day. we're roommates tonight," you said with a smile.
"oh-i-uhm, right. s-sounds good," he smiled again.
"i'm just kidding, doc," you nudged his shoulder a bit. "not about the roommate part though. we are rooming together," you clarified, he nodded as you both hopped out of the car and went to into the room after spencer insisted on grabbing the both of your bags to carry inside. "how home-ey."
"it's better than some of the places we've stayed at," spencer shrugged as he placed his and your bags on the old-looking couch.
"and at least there are two beds," you shrugged.
"you can take the bathroom first," spencer spoke up as he pulled a book from his bag. "which bed do you want?" he asked.
"whichever you don't take is fine," you said as you got all of your toiletries.
"ok, i'll take the one closer to the door."
"sounds good with me, doc. i'll hurry," you said as you shut the door, allowing yourself to relax into the steaminess of the shower.
the water pressure wasn't the best, but it was better than you've felt before. you quickly showered and brushed your teeth before submitting the bathroom to spencer.
as sleep finally overtook your body, you couldn't help but feel a bit nervous about what the next day would entail. sure, you had done undercover work before.
last time you went undercover, you had been working on a murder case as a favor for one of your friends. you had needed solid evidence that the defendant was guilty, and the only way to do that was to go into his house to find it yourself.
so like any committed lawyer would do, you innocently met him at a bar. he ended up inviting you over to his place thanks to your natural charm.
while in his house, you made sure to record everything that went down (no, nothing sexual happened) and he let you sleep in his guest bedroom. you got up once you were sure he wasn't awake anymore and started looking for that evidence you needed.
his alibi wasn't completely solid, but everyone believed him when he was on the stand. naturally, you were looking for something that would disprove his alibi. what you found was something much, much worse.
snuff film.
he had a snuff film of him killing this person. and another. and another. and another.
what you took the flash drives, stashed them in your bra, and got the hell out of there.
needless to say, you won the case.
that was the scariest time you went undercover. not only did you find out he was the murderer, you found out he was a serial killer. your mind was telling you that he would wake up at any second, and you'd become another person on a flash drive.
luckily, that's not what happened.
the next day, you would march up to your brother and convince him that you could handle yourself.
aaron knew you could handle yourself. he knew how strong and smart you were, obviously. he could never discredit you on that. you're one of the fiercest person he knows. he just worries for you all the time, reasonably so because of your childhood. he's your protector.
and you knew that his heart was in the right place, you just wanted to be treated as any other person on the team and be allowed to prove yourself by going undercover.
when you woke up, notably before spencer, you first got yourself ready. you wore black jeans with a navy button up and your utility belt. you made sure to put your hair up and then made your way down to get you and spencer some coffee.
once you got back in the room you noticed that spencer was still asleep. you walked over to his bed after setting down the coffee. sitting on the empty side on the bed, you admired his features.
no wonder he was called pretty boy. he was a truly pretty person, even when he was still asleep. from his adorable button nose to the plump lips he licked so often, there was no imperfection to him. you brushed his hair out of his face, relishing in the softness of his gorgeous locks.
"spencer," you whispered in a sing-song voice. "i've got your coffee," you said as you began to rub his scalp with your nails.
"mmm," he groaned. he rotated his body so he was laying on his back as he slowly opened his eyes. "hi," he mumbled quietly.
"good morning, doc," you laughed softly, not stopping your ministrations on his head.
"that feels really nice," he sighed, trying to savor the feeling of your hands in his hair.
"does it, doc?" you said as he moved his head to lay in your lap.
"mmhmm. don't stop yet," he pleaded as his arms wrapped around your body.
he was cuddly in the mornings, duly noted.
"it's only 6 a.m., so you have a little while before you need to start getting ready," you announced as you started using the other hand to massage his shoulder and neck, working your way up into his hair.
"hmmm, good," he mumbled into your stomach.
spencer would probably regret being so touchy later on today, but his morning brain couldn't let him stop. that, mixed with the way your hands felt on him was all too much. he couldn't not let you keep going.
"i never knew you were so touchy, spencer," you giggled a bit as his arms tightened around you before releasing his grip.
"i-i'm sorry," he was going to move his head from your lap before you gently stopped his by grabbing his shoulders, keeping him in place.
"don't be," you said, he automatically relaxed after. "it's not uncomfortable for me. i just thought you were averse to touch, is all," you clarified.
"i guess it's just with new people," he admitted. "you're not exactly new. and that really does feel really nice," you ran your hands from the front of his head down to the base of his neck.
"i used to do this for a few of my girl-friends when they were stressed with pre-law. they would come to me for help studying and for the scalp massages," you laughed out as spencer took your torso in his arms again, nuzzling his face into your body.
"that's very smart of them. i didn't have many friends in college since i was so young," he whispered.
"well i'd like to think we would've been friends," you began to braid his hair. "do you think we would've?"
"i'm not sure. probably not." he admitted with a shrug.
"well why do you think that?" you ran your hands through the braid to undo it.
"because you're just so... perfect?" he admitted quietly, tightening his hold on you as if you'd disappear from his admission.
"i'm really not perfect, spence. i promise," you chuckled as you began massaging his shoulders.
"yes you are. i'm convinced that there's nothing wrong with you. it's like you're not... real?" he sighed as you began pressing your fingers into his sore shoulders.
"i'm real, alright. and i have flaws. i have plenty," you admitted to him softly. "you just haven't seen them yet, doc."
"i'll believe it when i see it," he laughed as he sat up to face you. "nothing's wrong with you, y/n. i hope you know that," he smiled kindly.
"well at least you think so," you grinned in return. "how about we get you that coffee? it might be cold by now but it's exactly how you like it," you said as you got up to grab the cup from the nightstand, handing it to him.
"thank you," he took a sip of it slowly. "you know how i like my coffee?" he asked in disbelief.
"mhmm," you shrugged. "it's not like you get some every day in the office," you laughed.
"nobody's ever... why... how?" he tried to articulate his gratefulness.
in all actuality, nobody's ever really cared enough about him to do something as miniscule as get him a cup of coffee exactly how he likes it.
such a small thing that you've done, paired with your calm exterior and nonchalant attitude about it all just made his heart well.
not only have you woken him up in the best way possible, you've done the most simple, kind act of getting him a cup of coffee.
the entire situation seemed so... domestic. foreign. lovely.
"why're you so surprised?" you smiled softly at him.
"it's just... thank you," he said as he finally got out of bed.
once spencer was done getting ready, you both headed down to the lobby together where you were greeted by the rest of the team. aaron walked up to you, pulling you away from the group as you said your 'good morning's'.
"are you sure about this?" he asked, brows raised in concern.
"about going undercover?" you asked for clarification.
"you have to be confident that you can do it, y/n. otherwise i won't send you in at all," he demanded.
"yes. i'm sure," you nodded eagerly.
"okay. we'll come up with a plan soon. if you have any doubts let me know," he ordered.
"i will. i promise," you agreed. "thank you," you said as you hugged his waist gratefully, his arms wrapping around your shoulders in return.
"yea, yea, yea," he laughed. "just be careful, y/n/n."
"aren't i always?" you smirked as you pulled back.
after you had profiled the remaining 10 men, you had all agreed that there was one man that stuck out as suspicious. lucas stillwater. you asked around the college campus if there were any parties going on that night, there only being one that the unsub would be visiting.
the unsub was living off-campus. he had an ex-girlfriend who died last year, the anniversary being right before the murders started. he would make the girls act as his girlfriend would during their relationship, hence the sexual assault.
ultimately, you would try to lead him on. you would flirt with him, make it seem like you were interested, then reject him once he asks you out or for more. he would follow you home, to a place you had set up a couple hours back, and try to attack you in there.
you were wearing something his ex-girlfriend amy would wear. it was a baby pink, almost white, halter dress that cinched slightly at your waist, flowing out a bit at your hips only to stop right above your mid-thigh. you paired that with a pair of white high block heels, and wore a silver necklace and rings. you added some mascara, lip gloss, and blush to have that innocent look amy did.
walking out of the motel room once you were ready, you made sure to leave your gun in the room. aaron had told you to leave it there since this guy wanted you to flirt with him, he might get touchy and him finding the gun would freak him out.
"damn, y/n," morgan greeted you.
"damn is right," emily agreed. "you look hot!"
"oh, thanks," you laughed as you tried to pull the dress down a bit. "it's a bit short," you winced.
"you look great, y/n," jj agreed, you smiled sweetly at her.
"oh, w-wow," spencer said as he walked into the motel lobby to see you standing there.
you turned around to see him staring at you wide-eyed. he felt his heart stop at the sight. you in the baby pink short dress, looking all innocent in something like that did... things to him.
"hey, spencer," you smiled at him, that smile he already found himself so fond of.
"i uhm, i'm supposed to g-go to the party. to uhm, to watch you for so-some backup," he stuttered out.
"need some water?" you giggled at his nervousness.
"pretty boy, you likin' pretty girl all of a sudden?" morgan teased, walking over to pat him on the back.
"i-what?" spencer asked at the question, morgan shaking his head.
"leave the man alone," emily defended him. "it's not his fault y/n looks like that," she laughed out.
"oh shut up," you rolled your eyes at the banter. "where's aaron?"
"he's about to be here with rossi," jj informed you.
"right, thanks," you walked outside to get some fresh air before you had to leave.
were you nervous? yes. who wouldn't be when they're about to face a killer. would you tell anyone? no. you didn't need them doubting you on your first case, especially when you practically volunteered to go undercover.
you could do this. you knew you could. you just needed some fresh air.
"y/n?" you heard the voice come from behind you. you turned around to see spencer right in front of the door.
"yea? what is it?" you asked, almost out of breath from just standing there.
"you just seemed... anxious when you came out here," he almost whispered. "i just wanted to make sure that you're uhm, that you're okay."
"oh, right. i'm sorry," you chuckled, taking a deep breath. "i'm alright."
"you know you don't have to act like you're always okay?" he said, walking to where you stood in front of a bench motioning for the both of you to sit down. "i mean, you're about to go head to head with a serial killer. it's alright to be a bit nervous."
"i know it is, i just... it's my first case. i have to prove myself," you shrugged as you sat beside him. "if i mess this up, what'll that say about my placement on the team?"
"it'll say that you tried your best. it'll say that we need to make you feel more welcome here," he indulged. "if you do mess up, as long as we're here to help it'll be alright. you don't need to be perfect all the time. that's unrealistic."
"i know you're right. it'll be okay," you sighed.
"you'll be okay. nothing bad will happen to you whether or not we get to arrest him. i swear to you," he took your hand in his and squeezed it lightly.
"thank you, spencer," you turned to look into his eyes.
gazing into each others eyes, you subconsciously moved closer to his side. he wrapped his free hand around to move a stray hair behind your ear, you nuzzled your head into his touch.
before you knew it, the car with aaron and rossi was pulling into the parking lot, jolting you and spencer to opposite sides of the bench.
"hey, y/n," rossi greeted you. "how're you feeling?"
"good, ready," you nodded after clearing your throat.
"no second guessing?" aaron had asked.
"nope. none at all," you shook your head, your hands placed behind your back.
"has spencer told you that he's going to be there with you?" you nodded at rossi's question. "good. he's the second youngest so he'll fit in there. kind of."
"what's that supposed to mean?" spencer walked closer the the three of you.
"oh, nothing, doc," you giggled.
"alright, well the rest of the team knows the plan," he began explaining. "we're gonna head up there in this car while the others take a separate one. spencer will go in before you. once you both are inside you should look for lucas. make sure he's the one to approach you," aaron finished.
"make him come to me, got it," you nodded along. "let's get going, yea?" you said as you made your way to the car.
"are you ready for this, y/n?" rossi asked in his father-tone voice.
"i'm more than ready. i've got this," you told him.
you could only hope that you were right.

My oh my - Jason Todd x reader
A/n: Hey guys, this is the first time I am writing for Jason. Every time I listen to My oh my by Camilla Cabello I can’t help but imagine a story about him, so I just had to do it. Also, there is a part in here that I got inspired from Gilmore Girls because I am team Logan and I wish they ended up together.
Requested: no
Warnings: swearing, song inspired
Summary: They say he likes a good time, he comes alive at midnight, my mama doesn’t trust him, he’s only here for one thing, but so am I 
Word count: 3.2k
Tumblr media
It was very cold for a Spring night, even for Gotham. The moon was a full circle displaying in the sky, shining so bright, the streets wouldn’t even night lamps for you to know what’s in front of you - of course that wasn’t enough for a city like this. 
You heaved a sight, surprise white smoke didn’t come out of your mouth. You felt as if your bones were freezing, hands stuffed under your arm pits as you were crossing them, trying to provide some warmth. God, why did you agree to go out on a night like this?
When your best friend and roommate Ari, called you earlier that day to declare you were going  out, you were very very tempted to say no. Then you remembered all of the hard work you put into the last paper for a class at University, and decided that maybe going out with her wouldn’t be such a bad idea. What you didn’t expect was for her to barge into your bedroom an hour before you were supposed to go out, and pick up clothes that provided too little warmth. She said where you were going, this outfit would look nicer than the jeans you had picked. 
A street race wasn’t where you thought you would spend your night. Damn Ari and her crazy ideas. 
She overheard there was going to be a street race near Crime Alley, and that most people from University would be there so she said it would be cool for you two to go too. Well, it did sound a bit cool, if you were being honest. Street race? Sounded something from a movie, and you didn’t have many exciting memories to one day cherish and tell your kids and grandkids, maybe this could be one. If it ended badly, it would be one hell of a story, if it ended ok, then it would still be a cool story. 
But now, there you were, standing alone in a crowd because Ari left to go to the bathroom with another girl from your shared class. You knew you probably should’ve gone together because you don’t ever stay alone in Gotham, specially at night. But hey, these are college people, your college people. Nothing bad would happen, right?
You took a sip from your drink, hoping the alcohol would do that thing where it warms you up and makes you feel fuzzy. 
“Hey, princess. What are you doing here all alone?” 
You turned your head to the side finding none other than Jason Todd. He had a red cup similar to yours in hand, his signature lather jacket, black pants and boots. His hair was that fluffy mess, and he look good as always. 
You met Jason a few weeks ago at the University library, you both reached out for the same book. He said he was waiting for his little brother and was bored so he decided to take on the opportunity of free good books, he wasn’t a college student. And ever since you two kept bumping into each other. 
Your cheeks warmed up at the words that left his lips. Princess. He had been calling you that ever since you two met at the library. You tried to push away the surprised look on your face at seeing him here, it does look like his kind of place. He looks like the kind of guy who enjoys adventures and adrenaline.
“I came here with my friends, but they went to the bathroom.” you said, smiling at him “What about you?” 
“Well… I don’t have a date with me tonight, if that’s what you’re wondering.”
You adverted your eyes to the side, taking a deep breath, totally embarrassed. You didn’t meant it like that.
“Oh, that’s good?” It sounded like a questioned, God you are so awkward 
He smirked at you.
“Glad to know you think it’s good I’m single. I happen to think it is good that you’re single, too.”
You frowned. Was he thinking that just because you didn’t have a date for the night, you weren’t able to have a love life? 
“What makes you think I am single?” You questioned, hoping your frustration didn’t leak into your voice
“I am hoping you are. I mean, if you are dating someone, that person is an asshole for not being here with you tonight, this isn’t one of the nicest places in Gotham.”
You nodded, a small smiling tugging your lips. That was a nice safe, you had to give it to him.
“Is there a nice place in Gotham?” You ironized 
You were born and raised in Metropolis, you were used to big cities and the down side of it, but Gotham? That was another thing completely different. A giant hole in front your high school because Superman and his cute little sidekick Superboy were fighting some bad alien? Ok, you can deal with it. A guy dressed up as a clown who laughs way too hard and torture people for fun while he fights a guy dressed as a bat? That you cannot deal with. 
You didn’t understand why Jason thought what you said was so funny. He laughed, trowing his had back.
“I mean, did Batman just woke up one day and was like hey, what if I dress up as a giant bat and start beating up criminals? What was going trough his head to choose a bat?”
Jason couldn’t believe you were making fun of Bruce without even knowing it. It brightened his day so much, and the fact that you had no idea only made it better. He was going to tell the old man all about it later, so he could laugh even harder.
You smiled as you watched him laugh. He looked so beautiful.
“Are you cold?” He asked once he stopped laughing, he saw goosebumps in your arms 
“Yeah, I forgot to get a jacket before I left my dorm.” You admitted sheepishly 
Jason smiled at you, he had a nice smile. He shrugged off his lather jacket and placed it over your shoulders. It was warm from his body heat, and it smelled incredibly good.
“Thank you.” You smiled at him “But aren’t you going to get cold?”
“I can handle being a little cold, and if it gets too much, we can just hug each other?” He shot up his eyebrows 
You you were sure you looked like a tomato.
Jason smiled at you. He had taken an instant liking at you when he meet you at the library, something about the way you smiled at him saying he could have the book and you would just get it after he was done with it, and how your voice sounded so sweet and your eyes looked at him like he wasn’t bothering you by taking the book you wanted. He was waiting for you to lash out on him when he said he was just wanting for his brother, something like “you don’t even go here and you are trying to get my book?” He was trying to get rid of those bad thoughts, he was used to being pushed aside and treated like he was a pice of shit bothering people on the street. He sometimes, specially after his death, forgot that maybe there was still nice and polite people in Gotham. 
It didn’t take long for him to realize you were a good girl, a good nice girl. He mostly ran into you at the library and at the coffee shop at the campus. You always smile sweetly at him and wave. The first time Tim had caught that action, he stopped in his tracks and stared at Jason like he was an alien and he had just now realized it. You two were completely opposites, and obviously his brother would find it odd that you were waving at Jason Todd. 
And meeting you tonight at a street race? That was not what he was expecting your next meeting to be like. He was there to gather some intel about the gangs that was participating and what Black Mask and the Penguin wanted with them. Finding you here was rather concerning, this didn’t seem to be your element. And it wasn’t, from what he had learned in your brief conversations during your random meet ups. 
“Have you ever been to a street race before?” He asked, voicing a bit of his thoughts 
You shook your head, hoping he wouldn’t find you pathetic “No. I normally don’t do this kind of stuff, I don’t know how Ari managed to convince me to come.”
He smiled “Yeah, this doesn’t seem like your kind of thing. But it is a good thing, I mean, this is kind of dangerous.”
“Oh God.” You muttered under your breath “Dangerous as I could end up in jail or I could end up dead in an alley?” 
He decided not to answer. The first answer was that the GCPD was corrupted and that they wouldn’t really care, the vigilantes in the city did most of the job. That wouldn’t be a good start. And the second answer was that you could end up dead in an alley, and the probably would make you feel a bit scared, and he didn’t want to make you afraid of being there, because he couldn’t exactly say he could and would protect you if something bad happened. You would think he was just trying to show off, when in reality he actually really could. 
Tumblr media
“Do you want to get out of here?” Jason asked you after having watched a part of the street race
He, now, had a good idea of why Penguing and Black Mask were interested in those people. He had nothing better left to do, and hey, there you were right by his side even after your friends had returned. You were still taking to him, and using his jacket.
You thought for a moment before nodding your head. You told Ari you were heading out with Jason, and she gave you a knowing look before asking you to text her when you got back to the dorm. 
You walked between the crowd of people with Jason right in front of you. At some point, he reached out for your hand and kept holding it, guiding you to God knows where. You had no idea why you agreed to this, you barely know him and you knew enough bad stories to know you shouldn’t be leaving with him. But he was so nice with you all of the times you talked, and he was soooo good looking. 
You stopped in front of a motorcycle. He pulled the keys out of his jeans’s pocket and smile at you, handing you the helmet and climbing on top of his bike. 
“My dad always told me to never ride a bike with a boy.” You smiled at him, playing with the helmet in your hands 
Right now, Jason thought you looked breath taking, and all he wanted to do was kiss you. He wasn’t surprised at all by his thoughts as he had thought them before and before. What surprised him was the flirtatious tone on your voice, he couldn’t help but feel more attracted than before. You were polar opposites, and that was everything he needed in his life ever since he came back, someone to help him maintain balance.
“So what are you going to do, princess?” He questioned in a hushed tone
“Tonight I don’t want to be the girl that does what her parents says.” 
And then you had placed the helmet on your head, and climbed on top of the bike, right behind him. You could feel Jason’s warmth, you were so close to him, and that cologne smell? You could stay like this, having your chest pressed agains his back.
“Then I suggest you hold on tight.” 
He sped up, making you giggle in his ear as your arms wrapped around his body. 
Tumblr media
After spending most of the rest of the night together, around 4 am, Jason walked you to your dorm. You were still wearing his jacket, and you definitely didn’t want to take it off. 
You had went out to get some food after driving around for a while, and spend most of the time sitting at a booth on a fast food, eating fries and sipping on milkshakes. He was a great company, and you enjoyed the way you could talk about a lot of things and never seem to run out of things to say. 
You leaned on your doorstep, staring up at him with a small smile tugging on your lips.
“Thank you for tonight. I had a really good time.”
“Me too.” He smiled back at you “What do I have to do get to spend more nights like this with you?”
A devious smile took place in your face, you had no idea where de boldness came from, but the words flew out of your mouth before you could even properly think about what you were doing.
“If you kiss me, I might let it happen.”
And Jason didn’t wait a second to comply. His hands cupped your cheeks, bringing your face closer until your lips met. You stood on your tiptoes, meeting him halfway there since he was so tall. Arms wrapped around his neck, enjoining the warm feeling that spread on your stomach. 
You pulled apart when air became necessary. You smile at him, feeling your cheeks heat up.
“Goodnight, Jason.” You said, unlocking your door
“Goodnight, y/n.” He watched you walk into your dorm and stayed still until he listened to your door being locked again, just to make sure you were being safe 
You felt as if you were walking on clouds. You couldn’t believe you had just said, what you had just did, what had happened tonight. It all seemed like it was part of some movie. 
“You’re only arriving right now?” Ari groaned from the couch, making you jump in scare since you didn’t see her there “I was worried you didn’t text.”
“Sorry. I thought you would be out longer than me.” You pulled off your shoes “Did you have fun at the race after I left?”
“If I had fun?” She sat up on the couch “Did you have fun? I want to know all about your night with Jason Todd!”
You giggled, not quite believing it just yet. You sat on the arm chair, feeling your back muscle relax against the comfortable cushion, bikes don’t really provide back support and that kind of made your muscles sore. You wrapped his jacket tighter around your body.
“It was really nice, he is a nice guy.”
Ari smiled at you, asking you to keep talking, so you ended up telling her everything about your night with him. Usually, this was the other way around, she would tell you about her dates and what they did, if it was good or not. You are the single friend, always the single friend, this was a good change of scenario.
“I’m really happy for you.” She said “But I just want you to be careful, he has kind of a bad reputation around campus, and he doesn’t even go here. They say he likes to have a good time, just it.”
You nodded your head, understanding where she was coming from. But you wanted to have a good time too, so…
Tumblr media
“I don’t think it’s a good idea you hanging around this Jason guy.” Your sister said on the other end of the line “Mom doesn’t like him.”
You rolled your eyes. You once, accidentally, slipped out that you have been hanging out with Jason when your mom called and you were getting ready to go out. She had asked you why you were wearing pants if it was so close to summer which meant it was hot, and you said and regret because it is uncomfortable to wear a skirt while riding a bike. Now, Jason was the bad guy.
“She doesn’t even know him.” You protested 
“Yeah, and I don’t think she wants to.”
Well, if she keeps up this atitude about him then you don’t think you want her to either. 
You heard knocking coming from your window, making you frown. You pulled your curtain away, seeing Jason standing on the other side of the glass, a small smile tugging at his lips, hands stuffed inside his jacket’s pockets, and hair pushed back in that way he knew you liked it.
“I have to go. There is someone knocking at the door.” 
“At midnight?” Your little sister asked 
“It’s Ari, she forgot her keys.” You lied, Ari was in her room fast asleep after having stayed up until 5 am doing a research paper “Bye.”
You ended the call, tossing your phone on the bed and opening up the window. 
“Hey.” you said
“Hey.”
“Can I come in?” He asked in a low voice, probably not to get notice by anyone 
“Sure.” You stepped back, watching him climb your window 
“This always looked cooler in the movies.” He chuckled 
You smiled at him when he got closer “I think you climbed the window very gracefully.”
Jason smiled at you, pulling you into him, enjoining your warmth and the calmness you brought him.
“So…” you looked at him “What are you doing here at midnight on a Friday? Well, Saturday.” 
“I didn’t like the idea that we couldn’t spend this Friday together, it is kind of our day.” You try not to get the wrong idea by what he said, but it was true, you always hung out on Fridays, always coming up with different things to do, weather it was the movies, dinner, or reading books together “I knew you’d still be up so I decided to pay you a visit.”
“Thank you, I enjoyed the surprise.”
He leaned down, connecting your lips in a sweet kiss. You hummed in approval, sliding your hands over his chest until his jacket had fallen on the bedroom floor. When you pulled apart, you stared wide eyed innocently at him, just now catching up to the fact that you had pulled a move on doing something more by sliding his jacket off of him.
“Do you want me to go?” He asked, stroking your cheek 
You leaned in and kissed him again. Pulling him closer to you.
“Y/n, do you want me to go?” He asked one more time, against your lips 
“No. I want you to stay.”
Jason kissed you again, you walked backwards, falling on the bed with him on top of you. 
This was all you have been wanting for a while. Right now you didn't really care about all you have been hearing about Jason - ever since people found out you have been hanging out, they would come to you to say how he was just simply looking for fun, apparently he only ever showed up at the University when he either was there to pick up his brother, or he wanted to know about some party, or get together or whatever. But the Jason you got to know, he actually made plans with you outside of it, he didn't want to spend time with you just at a party you randomly met up, he wanted to talk to you, and take you to the movies. 
People like to talk too much, but you weren't going to let his bad reputation come in the way of allowing you to have a good time. In a long time, you had met a boy who seemed to worth it spending your time with, and he always made sure you were enjoining your time with him.
You knew there was also the part that your mom didn't like him, all your life she always told you to never trust guys like him. But you have been doing the right thing all your life, always being the good girl who did the good thing and never got into trouble. Tonight, when you were with him, you didn't want to be her. Wasn't this what part of what college experience was like? Doing things you'd regret? 
In the end, you knew you'd never regret having done any of this with him.

They’re careful to arrive separately but unsurprisingly, subtlety is not Derek’s strong suit. Spencer has a good poker face -- although logically he knows that a cheerful, passive expressive is the best actual poker face due to its non-threatening nature -- but Derek absolutely cannot get rid of the smug, pleased smile he’s wearing proudly. It’s a good thing Spencer looks as unsuspicious as possible because as soon as he enters the room, Emily’s teasing him about the hot date he clearly had last night. 
Derek might look smug but Spencer feels it: a soft swirl of satisfaction settling in his tummy, though he’s careful not to show it. He’s proud of himself for how smoothly the date went last night, much more comfortable than the first three, and he’s even happier that he can now call himself Derek Morgan’s boyfriend. He’d stayed the night for the first time last night and it couldn’t have been more special in Spencer’s eyes. 
He may not be grinning like Derek is, but he’s filled with a happy sort of warmth completely unmatched by any feeling that’s ever occupied his body before. It festers and grows and develops even throughout the gruesome briefing, even when discussing the profile of an enucleator, even when looking at crime scene photos. Pretty colours still ripple through his brain, comforting him with the promise of more, the promise of purpose beyond his day job.
The colours only intensify when they walk to the jet together with Emily and JJ, chatting about their weekends in vague as possible terms. They’re nearly at the door when Derek looks at him like he did last night: like he can’t quite believe what, who, he’s seeing, like Spencer’s everything he’ll ever need to be happy. If anyone caught it, they’d be found out immediately, but they don’t.
It’s a look meant just for him. 
He wants to bask in this moment for just a little longer, but they force themselves to pull their eyes away from one another and board the jet. At this point, he has no choice but to acknowledge that he will be working this case with his insides a messy, melted puddle of sentiment. And he’s not even mad about it.
⭐️
The insides of his eyelids don’t solely exist to serve their intended biological function anymore: they’re no longer just protection for his eyes but a cinema screen playing moments shared with Derek over and over again. Their first date, their first kiss, the first time Derek held him closely as he pushed slowly inside him. The looks he sends his way, the feeling of Derek’s hand in his, his broad chest and how it’s the perfect pillow for Spencer’s tired head. 
Time moves too fast so Spencer has no choice but to play it back, over and over again. 
“I’ve never been more jealous of your eidetic memory,” Derek chuckles when Spencer tells him this a little shyly on their next date. 
At first he’s terrified his boyfriend is mocking him, not appreciating just how deadly serious he’s being, but the earnest, adoring look Derek is wearing across his features tells him otherwise. His expressive face is one of the things Spencer loves so much about him; social situations and cues are hard for him to read, but one look at Derek’s face and he knows exactly what’s happening, exactly how to respond and behave. 
“It’s one of the few perks,” Spencer concedes, slipping his mittened hand into Derek’s. It’s late November and the evenings are cold, even in DC, but walking down the quiet street lit up by Christmas lights together after a delicious meal warms Spencer from the inside out. 
They pause a little way down the street when Derek points up at a Christmas light decoration in the shape of a mistletoe. “It would be bad luck if we didn’t,” he says seriously despite the playfulness in his eyes.
“Can’t have that,” Spencer hums, and he plays with the wide buttons on Derek’s double-breasted coat as he leans in and connects their lips in a soft kiss, feeling Derek’s hands come to his waist in the way he likes far too much, feeling small in his boyfriend’s hold. 
“An extra one for good luck,” Derek whispers as he leans in for one more after they pull away, brushing a lock of Spencer’s hair out of his eyes. “That’s how it works, you know.”
“It is?” Spencer laughs, eyes crinkling fondly at the look on his face. 
“Mhm,” Derek confirms, moving his hand to Spencer’s lower back as they continue their walk back to Spencer’s apartment. “I’m a Christmas tradition expert. I know more than you, probably.”
“Sure,” Spencer grins diplomatically, leaning in closer to the warm body next to him, contentedness flooding his insides.
Derek only stays for an hour before driving back to dump his stuff and repack his go-bag for the upcoming week, but it’s sort of a good thing. A lot has happened in a very short span of time and Spencer appreciates having a bit of uninterrupted alone time to really think about what’s been going on. 
They’ve had five dates by now: Derek had given him a little present to commemorate the moment, immediately making Spencer feel guilty for doing nothing of the sort, guilt which had quickly been assuaged by a gentle touch to the back of his hand. At first, he hadn’t known what to say. It was an understated necklace, a silver chain with a small triangle pendant on the end of it. He wasn’t a big jewelry person really, but on their first date, Spencer had talked at length about why triangles were his favourite shape (not his proudest moment) but Derek was so thoughtful. He could wear it all the time while easily concealing it at the same time, and it was just the most perfect gift he’d ever received.
He rolls it over in his fingers as he curls up in bed. He was falling in love with Derek, and he had absolutely no proof he was falling in love back; no proof, but he’d seen… something. Even just the present felt like statement enough. Maybe this was going to be it for him. Maybe Derek was going to finally give him the very thing he’d been craving all these years. 
It’s a comforting enough thought to dampen the doubts and fears niggling at him, and it sends him to sleep with the kind of peace in his heart he’d written off as impossible a long time ago. 
⭐️
Go-bags are packed, the case is wrapped up, and the team are saying their goodbyes to local law enforcement when Hotch gets the phone call. 
He’s wearing a mildly irritated frown when he heads back over a few minutes later. “There’s been a problem with the jet,” he informs them, grimacing at their annoyed reactions, “so you can either drive home yourself or wait. Garcia’s re-booking the hotel for the night and I’m informed that the plane should be ready to go by the morning.”
Spencer shoots a look at Derek who immediately understands and nods in return. Columbus, Ohio is a 6/7 hour drive back to DC, and the alone time after being so close but so far for almost a week sounds like heaven. It’s only 4pm: they won’t even get home that late.
“It’s funny, isn’t it?” Spencer muses once they’re on the road, curled up in the driver’s seat with his trusty blanket tucked around him as he admires his sexy boyfriend at the wheel. 
“What do you mean, baby?” he asks, looking over briefly. 
“Well just last week we were talking about taking a road trip together and then Hotch not only gives us the opportunity but also provides the transport,” he says, thumbing the pendant around his neck. It’s become almost a self-soothing thing now: even if it’s usually hidden under his ties at work, just knowing it’s there settles something deep inside him. 
Derek chuckles at that. “I’m not sure I imagined Hotch being quite so involved in our romantic get-away, but yes, it is one hell of a coincidence,” he agrees. “Although mark my words, I will take you on a proper road-trip one day. And I want to take you on a nice holiday, too. Paris, London, Florence. Bali, Thailand, maybe.”
Blush spreading across his cheeks, Spencer smiles over at Derek. “Yeah?” 
“Oh yeah,” Derek grins over at him, “I’m gonna treat my pretty boy like it’s my job.”
“You already do.” He feels shy suddenly, a little overwhelmed at the emotions Derek is eliciting in him right now. 
“Baby,” he says, shaking his head, mischief dancing in his eyes, “you ain’t seen nothing yet.” 
Spencer’s already thinking of counting it as their eighth date, but Derek seals the deal when he pulls off the interstate and onto a much quieter road as they near DC. It’s just gone 10 and the December night is cool and clear, but he still looks quizzically at his boyfriend as the engine shuts off.
“Trust me,” Derek says and gets out of the car. Spencer, of course, trusts Derek implicitly so obediently gets out of the car and joins him at the front of the jeep, leaning against the hood. “Look how beautiful it is.” 
They’re on a country road, surrounded by wheat and barley fields, but Derek’s looking up. The night sky is littered with stars, constellations clear as day against the inky black backdrop of mid-December. “My favourite constellation is probably Cassiopeia, you know,” Spencer explains, barely observing the sky before looking to Derek to impart his knowledge. “She’s one of the only figures banished to the heavenly realm as punishment and not in honour, and it was because she flaunted her beauty too much, and her vanity--”
He’s interrupted by a hand on his forearm. “Spencer,” Derek says softly, catching his attention and slowing his info-dump. “Look up.”
Instead of thinking about all the intellectual and academic aspects of astronomy, astrology, and physics, he takes a good while to just absorb the beauty of the night, probably for the first time in his life. He lets himself rest in that moment, sinking into Derek’s side as they shiver a little in the frigid air, staring at the bright, twinkling lights smiling down at them. 
For some reason, it feels like the universe’s blessing. The stars aligning, the inky sky approving, frozen air applauding. Derek leans over and kisses Spencer, holding his face in both his hands as their insides warm against the cold and in that moment Spencer knows. He still has no proof Derek feels the same way, but with one touch he knows that he’s in love. 
⭐️
Spending Christmas apart is hard, but they make up for it with their eleventh date, Derek driving them over to the National Zoo and listening diligently to Spencer’s info-dumping. They spend the whole afternoon walking through all the exhibits and Derek buys him a pretty steady stream of candy-floss, hot-dogs and cuddly toys throughout their time there, keeping Spencer flushed and happy, completely in his element. 
Derek cooks them dinner at his apartment afterwards, making Spencer’s favourite, a simple spaghetti bolognese with a healthy amount of homemade garlic bread on the side, and they eat at the cosy kitchen table, cheesy candles aflame as they chat easily. 
They get ready for bed in tandem, brushing their teeth together, toothpaste spilling down their chins as they laugh wildly at each other in the mirror. It’s a comfortable sort of ease, a domesticity that feels far too natural for such a youthful relationship. It works though, and neither of them are complaining as they fall asleep folded into each other’s arms. 
Spencer wakes up first but Derek isn’t far behind him, kissing his scrunched up nose almost as soon as he opens his eyes to find Spencer lazily curled up on his chest. “Breakfast?” he asks.
“Please.” 
The toast Derek puts in ends up burning when they get distracted by one another, but Derek just laughs and puts it in the bin and drives them to McDonald’s instead. “I hope you know I’m keeping this shirt,” Spencer teases as they pull on loose sweatpants and trainers and hop into Derek’s car. 
“I wouldn’t expect anything less, baby,” Derek says sincerely. “My entire wardrobe is open for your perusal. Seeing you in my clothes does things to me.”
“I know,” Spencer says, face full of faux innocence. “Why do you think I want to keep them?” 
“You are such a fucking tease,” Derek smirks, shaking his head disapprovingly, “but you know I love it.”
“Mm, I do,” Spencer agrees, reaching across the console and resting a hand on Derek’s thigh. 
“Oh, God, baby, you just wait until we get home.” 
Spencer pulls his hand away, satisfied smile playing across his lips. 
“Brat,” Derek mutters under his breath as they pull into the drive-thru. Spencer just smiles wider. 
Spencer lets his guard down with Derek in a way he’s never done with anybody else and you’d have to be stupid not to notice, so of course Derek is fully aware of the responsibility on his shoulders. Later that morning, after a greasy breakfast, satisfying fuck, and a shared shower, they sprawl across the sofa, nestled into one another comfortably as the TV plays some hallmark movie in the background. 
“My last boyfriend didn’t turn out so nice,” Spencer says when Derek brings up the topic of exes. It brings a heavier note to their light-hearted conversation, but he knows they’ll have to talk about it eventually and it might as well be now. “He got into it because he thought I was innocent and attractive, but when it came to actually spending time together and he found more out about me, he changed his mind.”
“Baby,” Derek murmurs into his hair, “dId he hurt you?” His voice is full of apprehension, afraid of the answer but needing to know. 
“Only once,” Spencer whispers. “I left him after that. But he was kind of emotionally cruel before that and it compounded on a lot of issues I already had from when I was little, you know, with my dad and bullies and everything. It took a long time to rebuild myself, I just…”
He trails off, not knowing how to put what he wants to say into words. 
“Sweetheart, I need you to know that I will never hurt you, not like that,” Derek says earnestly as he catches onto what Spencer’s afraid of deep down, caressing his arm softly. “I can’t promise I won’t make mistakes or accidentally say something wrong, but I will never hurt you like others have done in the past. You’re safe with me, pretty boy. And I am so proud of you for building yourself back up after trauma like that: you are absolutely the strongest person I know, and I don’t say that lightly, yeah?” 
And, yeah. That feels like proof for Spencer.
⭐️
They keep it a secret for as long as possible, but Emily finds out in late March and Rossi follows shortly after. Even once it’s out to everyone, though, they don’t change their work dynamic, they don’t give into any kind of temptation in the field, despite not having to hide anymore. They know the only way they’ll be allowed to stay on the same team is if it doesn’t affect their actions and choices one bit. So even though Derek’s protectiveness is ratcheted up several notches, he swallows it down and doesn’t comment on dangerous situations Spencer goes into. He’s sure Spencer would find that pretty hypocritical anyway; he’s constantly chastising his own recklessness in the field.
Just because Derek bites his tongue at work, though, doesn’t mean he can’t comment on it at home. So after a particularly irresponsible decision Spencer makes in a hostage situation, seriously endangering himself, he holds it in until they step into Derek’s apartment and Spencer looks at him, confused at why he’s clearly stewing in something and not talking about it. 
“What’s going on?” he asks as he toes his shoes off and makes himself at home in the same way he’s done for months now. 
“What’s going on?” Derek repeats incredulously, raising his voice ever so slightly. “You were so fucking rash and reckless today Spencer, you could have died! And you ask me what’s going on? Are you fucking kidding me?” Really it’s fear manifesting itself as anger but right now the rage bubbling up inside him feels almost suffocating. 
“I knew what I was doing,” Spencer says defensively, looking completely bewildered at the sudden outburst. 
“You know that what you were doing was seriously endangering yourself, Spencer,” Derek argues, voice rising even more. “Yes, you saved a hostage today. But you also could have gotten yourself killed, and you have to understand that your life is not worth less than anybody else’s, okay?”
“Derek, I signed up for this life, she didn’t--”
“No,” Derek shouts. “No, don’t give me that. It would fucking crush me to lose you, Spencer, and it seems like you don’t even care about that. Do my feelings even matter to you?”
“What? Of course, they do, Derek,” Spencer says, still looking caught off guard and confused as he tries to figure out the situation and why his boyfriend is so angry. He tries to temper the unpleasant feelings filling his chest cavity, like muscle memory, fingers remembering a piece of sheet music played far too many times. 
“Well then fucking prove it,” Derek yells. “You aren’t listening to me! You endangered yourself and that’s terrifying for me. Your life matters Spencer, and sometimes I feel like it matters more to me than it does to you!”
“Derek, please calm down,” he pleads, wanting to talk about this properly and not feel so ambushed. “You’re scaring me.” 
That immediately catches Derek’s attention and the anger seems to leak out of him like a stopper’s been pulled out, draining him dry for only a moment before fear and guilt fill its place. “Fuck,” he mutters, sitting on the sofa and burying his head in his hands for a second before sitting up and making eye contact with Spencer. “I’m sorry, Spencer, I shouldn’t have yelled. I just… you scared me. You went against protocol today. You know that the FBI does not mandate agents putting themselves at serious risk of death or injury, even if it would save a life. Your life matters so much, to me, to the team, to your mum. People care so much about you, baby, and I don’t know what I’d do if I lost you, okay? You put the fear of God in me earlier and sometimes… sometimes anger is the only way I know how to deal with those emotions.” 
“I know,” Spencer whispers, and though it’s unsaid they both understand he’s acknowledging every part of Derek’s speech. “I’m sorry, too. I didn’t think about how my actions would affect you. I guess I’ve gone so long as a solo act, only having to think about myself and with very little to live for, it’s just taking time to adjust to remembering that I have you and your emotions to consider now. I need you to know, though, that I can’t deal with it when you shout at me like that, if you have a problem I need you to discuss it with me because I can’t figure out what’s going on when there are lots of emotions and raised voices, it confuses and upsets me.”
“I will, Spencer, I promise. I’m so genuinely sorry I handled it so poorly this time.” 
“Thank you,” he whispers gratefully. 
“Come here,” Derek says, the beginnings of a smile playing over his lips. He pulls Spencer into a gentle embrace, relishing the feel of Spencer, alive, pressed against his body. His warm skin, beating heart, soft curls, all shared with him, entrusted to him. 
“Next time I’ll stop and think about you, Derek,” Spencer says softly as he rests his head against his shoulder. “I’ll remember to prioritise us, remember that we can’t save everyone.” 
“Thank you, baby,” Derek says. “And I’ll be more patient; remember that you haven’t had anyone to remind you properly of the worth you have in a long time. We’re good, though, aren’t we?”
“So good,” Spencer confirms, pulling back and smiling properly before kissing Derek softly. He moves down to nose at his neck slightly, pressing a few tender kisses there, too. “Shall we head to bed? You look exhausted.” 
“That sounds like a plan,” Derek agrees before a cheeky smile plays across his features. “As long as you wear one of my shirts again…”
“Oh, what a hardship,” Spencer groans, winking at him in the lop-sided, awkward way he always does. “But I suppose I’ll do anything for you.” 
Spencer stays up for a little while after Derek falls asleep, reading over some casenotes, a few consults, and figuring out a new angle for a research paper he’s working on. Quiet, methodical work -- no matter how gruesome -- helps him wind-down after the high adrenaline of a case and it feels extra necessary tonight after the argument he’d had with Derek. 
He feels his boyfriend stir only a few hours after he’s dropped off to sleep, staring up at Spencer in the soft glow of the pink lamp on the bedside table bought for exactly these sorts of nights. A strange look plays across his face as he reaches for Spencer’s hand and holds it. 
“You’re my best friend, Spencer,” he says, completely serious. “You know that, don’t you?”
Spencer’s done obsessing over proof. 
“Yeah,” he whispers, looking down at their intertwined hands before back at his face, “I love you, too, Derek.” His smile softens even more when he sees Derek’s face relax into a relieved expression, knowing that his meaning was understood. 
“Good,” he whispers, kissing the back of Spencer’s hand before lying his head back down on the pillow. “Night, pretty boy. I love you.”
As Derek drifts back off to sleep, he hears those words echoing around in the silence, a soothing, methodic rhythm of reassurance that what he’s wished for since the very first look on the way to the jet has materialised. 
Knowing it is one thing, but hearing it is another. Derek loves him. He hears it in the silence, feels it on the way home, and when he curls up next to his boyfriend, he can even see it with the lights off.
