"UNO!"
Everyone burst out into loud groans of disappointment. This was the third round in a row that you were going to win. As you held your card up with a malicious smirk, your eyes met with your friend sitting right across from you. Jake Seresin. He narrowed his bold green eyes at you, a small smile gradually growing across his face.
When his turn came around, he put down a color card. "Green and Uno."
The next player put down a skip card, which meant it was your turn again. You scoffed and rolled your eyes. Everyone cheered as you leaned forward and picked up another card. The others took their turn and once it was on Jake again, he offered you a little wink.
"This one is for you [Y/N]," Jake teased, putting down his final green Uno card. Everyone started clapping. You couldn't help but smile at everyone's reaction. "You're welcome, sweetheart."
Everyone started saying good game to each other. In the midst of chatting with everyone, you were tapped on the shoulder by your older brother, Bradley. He asked if you could talk to him. You excused yourself and went into a separate room with him. Bradley closed the door and turned around to face you.
"So...You know how we were supposed to go on a double date tonight?" Bradley asked, slowly walking up to you. You raised an eyebrow. "Well, Charlotte can make it with me but...Damon just texted me and informed me that he won't be able to make it."
"What?!" You exclaimed. You shook your head, clearly upset. "I was really lookin' forward to going with Damon."
"The worst part is that I already have the movie tickets paid for and dinner paid for," Bradley claimed, running his hands through his silky brown hair. "Table for four and also the last four seats in the movie theater for that movie. It was an actual miracle I got those seats."
"Wow," You exhaled. "It seems that I need someone to go with me in about..."
"Five minutes."
"Five minutes?!" You gasped. "Who in the world-"
"Jake Seresin," Bradley interrupted, taking you by surprise. You cleared your throat and glared at him with the "Come again?" facial expression. "Look, hear me out, everyone here already has plans for the rest of the night. I'm pretty sure Jake doesn't. We're desperate. Please."
"You're desperate," You corrected, receiving an eye roll from Bradley. "I'm not goin' out with that brown-nosing, flirtatious little-"
"I'll tell Pete about what really happened at the party that one night," Bradley interjected, making you immediately reconsider. "You wouldn't want Pete to know that now would you?"
"It's always with the blackmail," You sighed. "Whatever. I'll go with Jake."
Bradley cheered and pulled you in to lay a big kiss on the top of your head. You grunted uncomfortably and pushed him off you, but that only won you a headlock from him. Growing up, you and Bradley got into more physical fights rather than verbal fights, but that's just how you two showed your love for each other.
It also helped you two bond and become stronger together.
»»----- ♡ -----««
"I heard the best friend dies at the end of this movie," Jake whispered. You inhaled deeply, trying not to lash out at him. "I'm just sayin' if the best friend dies...I called it."
Dinner was good. Well, the food was. You and Jake had completely different personalities and it was difficult to try to find common ground. It has been that way with him the entire time you've known him. It was hard, but you've dealt with worse people than him. Jake at least treats you kindly. Well, when he's in the mood to.
"The movie should start soon, so we should find out-"
You paused as you noticed a familiar face enter the movie theater. You audibly gasped and Jake snapped his head around to see who you were looking at. He just saw a man and a woman hand in hand with each other. You grumbled some unkind words as you shrunk down in your chair. Jake turned his attention back to you.
"What? Bitter about how you're not in a relationship?"
"Oh shut up," You groaned, throwing your hands over your face. You were on the edge of leaving. You dragged your hands down your face and glared coldly at Jake. "The man you just saw holding that woman's hand was the man who's supposed to be in your seat."
Jake noticed the hurt within your eyes, causing his heart to soften. "Oh, that troll was Damon? Sheesh. Ten bucks she rejects his kiss at the end of the night."
"Thanks Jake..." You softly spoke, lowering your eyes. "I just don't understand why he would say that he couldn't make it when clearly, he could have."
"His loss," Jake stated with a small shrug. "He doesn't have very good taste in women."
"What are you talking about? His date is gorgeous."
"She's not you [Y/N]," Jake declared, making your heart skip a beat. Was he being serious? "And you're beautiful inside and out."
You couldn't believe it. Jake not only complimented you, but he called you beautiful. You were a little confused, but you were secretly into it.
"Also, I was joking about the best friend dying thing earlier," Jake apologized. "I just wanted to see your reaction. I like teasing you."
"Yeah, I know you do," You chuckled. "But tonight, I'm going to allow it."
"Can I ask if you can allow one more thing?" Jake asked softly. "Would you allow me to kiss you at the end of the movie?"
You immediately felt your face increase in heat. Did Jake literally ask if he could kiss you? Your eyes caught Damon who was already making out with his date in his seat. You smirked and returned your attention to Jake.
"Why wait?"
Jake bit down on his lip, his beautiful green eyes fixated on your lips. You closed your eyes as you watched Jake lean in. The moment your lips collided, the lights turned all the way off and the movie started. You thought it was going to be a simple kiss, but Jake continued to kiss you, so you followed his lead.
In the end, you both smiled at each other. He wasn't that bad of a kisser.

Medic! Reader with her boys after an ambush
Grayson Waller, Logan Paul, and Austin Theory x F! Reader
˗ˏˋ ꒰ ♡ ꒱ ˎˊ˗
Grayson and Austin came stumbling into the medical room after their match with New Catch Republic. They were looking more roughed up than you had expected. Grayson holding up Austin who was visibly in pain and holding his chest.
"What happened?" You worried and rushed them both over to a chair. Logan was still lying on the cot, even though he was feeling better after his encounter with Kevin and Randy.
"Judgement Day, that's what happened." Austin managed wheezed out. He flinched as he spoke.
You had to swallow down your anger when hearing the group's name. It seemed like every show someone from the Judgement Day was the reason you had a patient. "Logan, get up. Let Austin lay down."
Logan groaned as he rolled off the cot and sat in the chair Austin was occupying. Austin stumbled into the cot and laid face up.
"Let me guess, Coup de Grace?" Austin nodded. You sighed and felt around his torso. You made sure nothing was broken before moving over to Grayson. "And what happened with you?"
"My fingers just hurt..." he pouted and held up his hand.
"Pete Dunne?" He nodded. You knew Pete wouldn't actually break anyone's fingers, but you figured you'd double check just in case.
While you checked Grayson's hands, he started questioning Logan. "Why are you here?"
"I got a stunner and an RKO. No thanks to you guys." Logan crossed his arms and looked away from Grayson. Logan frowned as he stared at the blank wall.
Grayson looked like he was about to say something to Logan when you cut him off sternly. "Boys, do not start arguing." Austin let out a strangled laugh. Grayson also crossed his arms and turned his back to Logan. Both of their chairs were right next to each other, which made the scene look even more hilarious to you.
"You didn't watch our match?" Austin tried to sit up but you pushed him back down. Your hand had subconsciously rubbed at his shoulder. His pain was evident, and you hated seeing it.
"No, I'm sorry. I was too busy nursing Logan back to health and the t.v. kept cutting out." Austin frowned. "I'll watch the playbacks later tonight."
You ran a hand through Austin's hair. He smiled and leaned into your touch. Thankfully the other boys didn't see, because there would for sure be some jealousy. "You guys should get changed, show ends in ten minutes." You looked over at Logan and Grayson. "Logan, help them get to the locker room?"
Logan grumbled but stood up anyway. "You can't?" Even though he'd do what you said, he was a little upset with the other boys and their lack of success on his planned ambush. Logan and Grayson helped Austin up to his feet.
"No," you grabbed your bag and walked to the door. "I think it's time I had a little chat with Rhea."

。 ♡ 。  ♡。  ♡ {peter’s version}
peter honestly wasn’t sure what had happened to get to this point.
about 3 seconds ago you were fine, basking in his spider-man awesomeness and doting on him being the “coolest and best boyfriend ever!” and now you’re making a scrunchy face and uncomfortable noises.
because of his spider senses (but actually because he is the best boyfriend ever and knows what you’re feeling before you can even comprehend it), he jumps into action. as he moves closer to hold you and ask what’s wrong, what had suddenly changed to make you upset, you hold a hand up to stop him.
he frowns slightly, “are you okay? what happened, baby?” you shake your head in response.
“i’ve never felt your suit before.”
he completely stops, confused for a moment as to why that has anything to do with this and then it clicks. the texture.
you’ve always been super irritated by textures: velvet, corduroy, silks, and many many others. while you aren’t quite sure what horrendous type of spandex fabric peter’s blue and red superhero costume was made out of, you know that it hurts. badly.
“just made my teeth hurt really bad, ‘s okay, though. ‘m okay now, pete.” you try to smile widely at him to let him know that it’s fine but you cringe and purse your lips again as you watch him as he removes the suit hurriedly, ridding the thing causing you to not touch him.
“no! i, ugh! i should’ve thought about it and let you feel the suit a little bit first before i hugged you like that, sweetheart, i’m sorry.”
you shake your head fervently, mumbling assurances that it’s fine as you begin to bite onto the silicone straw in your cup to reduce the aching of your teeth. “really it’s fine! it just… threw me off. y’know how i am, pete. but it’s better now! my teeth aren’t even hurting anymore!” they definitely were, but you can’t stand to see him feel so guilty about something that isn’t his fault.
he throws a t-shirt over his head (one that he knows you never have a problem with) and he strides towards the bed. “i still feel bad, though. ‘specially ‘cause i know you well enough to know that they’re still hurting.” he grumbles as he lays next to you, covering his face with a pillow.
you reach behind you, still chewing on your straw, to rub a hand across his stomach. “really ‘s okay, peter! i’ll be fine in a minute. just please don’t feel bad.” your voice sounds a little strained with worry and that makes him feel even worse knowing that he’s affecting your empathy sensitivity as well.
“okay. okay, it’s fine. you’re okay. can i touch you, please?” his voice is dulcet as he whispers to you. you nod, humming in relief when you feel his hands settle on your hips.
your teeth finally rid of their ache after a few more minutes, and you turn to peter with a frown on your face. “no, no baby, why that face?” he pouts, rushing his hands to cover your cheeks and try to rub the frown away.
you mimic his pout, mumbling through his palms, “oou wor ‘sposed to tae me to swang frew da cidy!”
he giggles and removes his hands, “one more time?”
you crack a little smile, still frowning slightly.
“you were supposed to take me to swing through the city, petey! and now you can’t because ‘m sensitive!” you throw yourself dramatically onto the bed with a wail.
“oh.” he pauses for a minute as he turns to face you. “well, we could… go without my suit? like to somewhere where there aren’t many people or we could go at night! or! i could just wear the mask, then you don’t have to touch the whole suit!”
your heart swells at the boy in front of you. he’s so so sweet and you know that he’d do anything for you, and you would do the same for him.
“i think that sounds really nice, peter. i love you, by the way. thanks for always putting up with me.” you snuggle into his warmth, wrapping you fingers into his hair as you kiss little pecks onto his skin.
“yeah, ‘f course, baby.” you can hear his grin through your kisses. “i love you too.”

Happy Ice day
Tumblr media
Happy Birthday Val 🥰💕
Iceman x Reader
Masterlist
It's Iceman's birthday, but he hasn't mentioned it once. That doesn't mean all his dear friends don't know.
@mtnofgrace @mrsjaderogers @cycbaby @callsignscupcake @askmarinaandothers @bayisdying @kiichirose
♡♡♡
From the moment he woke up he didn't say a word. You watched him rise from the bed and head into the bathroom to start his morning routine. You could only sigh softly as the door clicked shut behind him.
It's his birthday, but he hadn't mentioned it at all. That didn't mean you would forget about it.
Your phone pings beside you on the nightstand so you roll over and pick it up. It's Ron, or Slider as he's known, Tom's old pal and RIO during their flying days.
Sli: We still on?
You: Still on!
You put the phone back when you hear Tom come back into the bedroom. He runs his eyes slightly and goes to pick up his glasses from his bedside table. You chuckle as he puts them on and looks at you.
"That's better," he smiles.
"Very handsome."
He chuckles and then reaches for his robe. While he puts it on you get out of bed and make a start to your day. Everything was going to be perfect for him, whether he noticed it or not.
Breakfast was made and ready for him by the time he came downstairs all dressed and ready for his day. He sat down in his usual seat and thanked you, smiling as he did so. You smile back and join him, bringing over some juice for the pair of you.
"Tom?"
He looks up at you.
"Ron and Pete are going to be at The Hard Deck later. Bradley is going to play a little piano, so I hear. Would you like to go?" You ask, prompting him.
Tom smiles.
"Do you want to go?" He asks.
"I would like to, yes."
You smile, knowing you got him. That look in his eyes gives him away.
"Then we shall go."
Tom helps you tidy up after breakfast and you head upstairs to get his present, which you will hide in your bag until you get to the bar.
When you arrive, Slider and Mav are already there. Ron and his wife are sitting at a table in the corner, while Maverick is chatting up Penny behind the bar. Rooster is sitting at the piano playing the keys gently. You lead Ice into the room and wave at the Kerner's as you approach their table.
Tom pulls out a chair for you and sit down. Ice sits next to you. Looking around the room, Ice takes note of the lack of customers in the bar. In fact, the only customers are them and a few of the Top Gun students.
Ice leans in close to you.
"What are we doing here?" He asks, narrowing his eyes slightly. You just smile in response.
Mav and Penny come over. Penny places a tray of drinks on the table and takes a seat beside you. Everyone reaches for their chosen drink, Mav having already ordered for you and Ice.
"To the birthday boy!" Mav grins.
"Happy birthday!!" Everyone cheers.
Ice sits in silent shock. His eyes drift to you who is smiling at him sweetly.
"My birthday?"
You nod your head.
"You didn't think I forgot, did you?" You ask him.
"We never do anything for my birthday," he tells you. It's true. He doesn't really celebrate it. You'll get him a cake that you'll share at home, but that's about it.
Ice looks at you with gentle eyes.
"You wanted to come here because you planned this."
You nod.
"It was my idea. I reached out and asked if you had plans, when they told me no, I thought we could all surprise you for drinks and a sing song with Bradshaw," Ron explains.
Tom nods his head softly. You reach out and take his face in your hands when you see tears threatening to spill. He smiles at you as you turn his face to look at you.
"What am I going to do with you?" He asks, whispering with a smile.
"You could kiss me."
He chuckles and does just that. He leans in and steals a kiss.
"Cheers to Iceman!" Maverick grins.
Everyone raises their glass.
"Cheers!"
Iceman chuckles as he wipes his eyes from under his glasses. You lean into his side with a smile and put your drink back onto the table. You reach into your bag for his present.
"I got you something."
"You didn't have to do that," he says.
"I wanted to. It's your birthday and I'm very lucky I get to share it with you. So, I got you something."
You hand over the present. Ice takes it from you and unwrap it with care.
Now the tears actually fall.
In his hand Ice holds a photograph. You're both much younger in it. Maverick and Slider are there, Wolfman in the background. Hollywood poking his head into frame.
Some years ago there was a reunion for Tom's Top Gun class. It had been a few years since their time at Top Gun, and Ice had married you in between that time, but everyone was pretty much the same.
Ice looks up at you.
"Where did you get this?" He asks.
"Penny has a surprising amount of Navy photos," you chuckle. "She found this and contacted me, thinking you might want it. Knowing this wasn't a photo you have back home, I told her I would be happy to take it. So it's my gift to you," you tell him.
Ice wraps an arm around you and pulls you into him, pressing a kiss to your cheek. You chuckle as you wrap your arms around him.
"I love you," he whispers in your ear.
You smile.
"I love you too, Tom. Always and forever."
Celebrating his birthday with his few close friends became tradition after that, and that photo now sits in his office among his others on full display for him to look back on every year.
You made every one very special and he loved that.

ken ˗ˋˏ♡ˎˊ˗
let me love your OCs masterlist
i had so much fun doodling this character??? thank you SO much @thismonthshyperfixation for letting me play with your rad-as-hell original character. they are so fucken fun
meet ken, who stumbles across a newly-rehomed Peter quill in a local earth music shop. ken & pete get to chatting about music recs & things go from there. ken is also a contractor & local woodworker, and pete eventually is like “hey you should meet my friend rocket who also builds shit, including a gun for blowing up moons and the weirdest fucken spaceship you’ve ever seen.” (this is not hard to believe as ken has presumably not seen a ton of spaceships, though i could be wrong about that.) anyway quill says “so you wanna go visit my buddy at his place? it’s in a floating skull in deep space if that’s cool” to which ken, of course, is like “fuck yeah i wanna meet your friend”
then pete and ken hop into whatever runabout Pete’s using these days (maybe the old benatar?) and head back to space on a road trip which i imagine to be much like groot’s adventures in the 2015 i am groot comic run. there’s a ton of bonding and then ken meets rocket who is ((i personally believe)) extremely and grouchily impressed by ken’s skills and very eager to see exactly how they can collaborate on making some very cool shit. then they bond too and everyone is very happy
i fucken LOVED drawing and painting ken. their tattoos were my favorite part (i used a lot of existing tattoos gif reference so they’re certainly not fully original compositions). but i also really loved their hair & eye colors, especially in combination with each other.
thank you again, @thismonthshyperfixation for the privilege of getting to doodle your awesome character in my style ♡♡♡ I appreciate you so much!

I don't think I'll ever refine this mini comic, but the idea of Pete and Firkle being at the Clippers game (that Cartman hijacked to break up Kyle and Nichole) and sending pics of what transpired to the Goth Kids' Chisme Chat (feat. Stan and Kenny) amuses me. Description below cut ♡
[ID:// A three panel comic, done in very basic sketches. In the first panel, Michael is looking over Henrietta's shoulder, who's looking at their phone. Both of them are wearing pyjamas and are looking bemused at whatever is on Henri's phone, Michael asking "The fuck's Cartman up to now?". In the next panel, both Pete and Firkle are seated in a stadium. Pete looks confused whilst nudging Firkle's arm, who's sitting with their knees bunched up and flip phone held out, taking a picture of what's occuring before them. Pete's saying "??? dude are you seeing this???" And Firkle saying "teaaaa". The last panel shows an image about to be sent on a flip phone of Cartman's passionately singing "I swear" on one half of the stadium's jumbotron while Kyle's looking angrily confused at the screen on the other half, with a heart filter overlapping them both. //END ID]

Pete Thelman General Headcanons!
Tw: Racism, Gender Dysphoria, Neurodivergent issues, Drug use
♤ Pete has ADHD and has symptoms of OCD
♡ Like his head is constantly in 30 different worlds, he constantly stims, he gets overstimulated and overwhelmed easily, has issues with texture, ect
◇ One day Michael told him he should probably go get checked out and he was officially diagnosed with ADHD
♧ He is nonbinary, goes by He/They
☆ He remembers his entire childhood, he was constantly confused on his life. He liked being girly but he doesn't wanna be a girl. He liked being 'manly' but he doesn't wanna be a boy. They discovered nonbinary and eventually came out to his family. And that day was the best day to Pete
♤ Speaking of his family, he has...a odd family history. He is adopted, but not for the reason you think. Was his birth family abusive? No. Was his birth family neglectful? No. Why was Pete taken away then? Drugs.
♡ His family never did drugs, but they sold them for money. They wanted to save money for rent. His birth family was very poor and working for dirt cheap money so they resorted to selling drugs. They didn't take any nor gave Pete any.
◇ Once Pete found out, he was mixed with so many different emotions. He was mad at them for selling these substances. But confused cause he loves his parents and it wasn't like they were doing this for the wrong reason. And he felt sympathetic towards them cause, well, they were poor so he could understand why they would do such a thing
♧ His family was arrested. So, he was put in the system and adopted. His birth family still love Pete and Pete still visits them in jail. His new family love Pete too, and Pete loves his new family.
☆ Why the racism warning I hear you ask. Well, his new family is black. And unfortunately with today's world, they are often hit with racism. Pete, of course being sympathetic and loves his family, hates this. He just wants he and his family to live normally without issues. He is scared whenever someone comes over cause obviously they are gonna have questions, and he's worried someone is gonna make derogatory comments about his family history and him as a whole
♡ His families love Pete though and his moms and dads reassure him that no matter how life hits them, that they are happy where they are
◇ He is the memer out of the goth kids and will spam random memes in their group chat
♧ He straight up wheezes at the stupidest stuff
☆ He loves badz maru so much that he has badz maru stuff everywhere
♤ He likes to sit on tall places. Literally he sits on closets that almost reaches the ceiling, sits on the top of couches, sits on top of dressers. Everything tall
♡ He has an irrational fear of butterflies. He finds them pretty but he's afraid of being near them and having them land on him
◇ If he was a cartoon character, he's a mix of Gaz from invader Zim and Misery from Ruby Gloom
♧ He can sing but its very monotone. But there's more emotion and he sounds like he's trying, much more than Michael
☆ His playlist is filled with Jack Stauber and MSI

Pete Davidson x f/Reader
Just like all my other stories, this has not been proofread, but please enjoy.
Gifs & photos do not belong to me.
Warnings: Some swearing.
I hope you like it.
Main Masterlist ♡ Pete Davidson Masterlist
Summary: f/Reader & Pete were highschool friends until they drifted apart after taking different paths in life.
Pete Davidson's POV:
After breaking up with Phoebe, I figured it was best for me to take a break from dating. Actually after having a deep conversation with my Mom and Sister about it and they mentioned I should be single for a while, I finally agreed.
Now I am pretty much back at my Mom's house, even though I have my own place. I just didn't want to be alone right now and she understands that.
But ever since I have been gone, my Mom has spending more and more time with people from her work.
Tumblr media
Like today for instance, she is having lunch with a co-worker and then they are coming back here.
I was in my Mom's kitchen when I heard the front door open and two voices talking. One was my Mom and the only one sounded familiar.
I was confused on who the other person was and went to go meet the two of them.
Well I was shocked to see none other than my friend from high school, Y/N L/N standing there with my Mom.
"Pete, you remember Y/N don't you?" My Mom said once she noticed me standing there.
"Of course, hey Y/N."
"Hey Pete." Y/N said as she gave me a hug. She always was a hugger and I didn't realise until this very moment how much I missed her hugs.
"So you're the co-worker that my Mom is always spending time with?"
"Yeah. Amy has been there for me ever since I broke up with Dean. Remember Dean Lovell?"
I nodded my head yes. Of course I remember him. I am shocked that they were even still together. All he did was cheat on her and she never believed any of us when we told her.
"Well you were right about him all those years ago. He continued to cheat on me and I finally caught him. Kicked him out and then found out he has a five year old daughter."
"What?" I asked completely shocked.
"Yeah, that was a shocker." She said to me as the three of us got comfy on the couch in the livingroom.
"Y/N and him broke up about seven months ago and we have just spending time together. We have the same days off, so it has been nice."
The three of us talked about different things in our lives and then my Mom got up because she had a phone call come in. I heard her go to her room and close the door.
"Now tell me Pete, how have things been with you?"
"I am good. You probably saw I had another failed relationship." I said to her with a shrug of my shoulders.
"Yeah, but I don't pay attention to that stuff as your Mom tells me and she knows more than any gossip page will ever know."
"Yeah."
"Look how about we go out to eat. You, me and your Mom. Colonnade Diner on me."
The two of us used to go there all the time. I'm surprised she remembered it. "Yeah, it will be good for me to get out of the house for a bit. Let me go ask tell my Mom."
I was just about to stand up to go tell her the plans for dinner when my Mom came out of her room with a big smile on her face.
"That was Andrew from work. He wants to take me out to dinner."
Y/N jumped up and hugged my Mom as I sat there stunned.
"I told you he wanted to ask you out Amy."
"Wait who is Andrew?" I asked completely confused.
"You know him as Doctor Stevenson Pete." Oh yes, he is a good guy
"And you're going out to dinner with him tonight?" I asked her.
"Yes. I have to get ready. Sorry to cut our day short Y/N."
"No worry Amy, we were just going to ask you out to dinner ourselves but we can always do that another night."
"Well you two have fun." My Mom said to us.
Tumblr media
Y/N and I did have fun and spent hours at the Diner. The two of us talked about everything. It was like we never drifted apart.
We set aside two nights a week where we would have dinner together. Even if I was away filming, you would find us having dinner while on video chat with one another.
We talked and text each other every chance we got and that was hard with our schedules.
It was nice to have a friend who knew what I was going through and I didn't have to try and act any differently around her because she just knew me.
Y/N knew when I had good days and bad days. She knew when I had a flareup with my crohns and she would call me so I just had someone there for me.
She already knew about me being diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. She never judged me or tried to change me. Y/N was just there for me, being the great friend that she is.
And that is the issue because I have started to fall in love with her. I tried not too, but after months of us being friends and getting closer and closer, it was bound to happen.
I knew the crush that I had on her in high-school would come back and it did.
Fuck, it did and I am scared to ruin our friendship but I can't keep this to myself anymore.
So I figured I would talk to the next best person.
"Hey Mom, you got a second?" I asked her as I saw her sitting at her kitchen table.
"Of course Petey."
"Mom, I don't know how to say this and I didn't plane for this to happen but I like someone." I said to her as I sat down next to her.
"Is that someone Y/N?"
"Yes."
"Well why don't you tell her?"
"Because I don't want to ruin our friendship."
"And why do you think you will ruin it?"
"Because I always do. I always mess up everything and I don't want to mess this up."
"I don't think you will. Just tell her how you feel and I am sure you won't be disappointed."
"How can I tell her that when I am with her I feel like I am finally at home? That she takes my breath away and that I love her."
"You love me?" I heard her voice say behind me.
My eyes went real wide at that as I stared at my Mom who had a massive smile on her face.
"You two have some talking to do." My mom said as she stood up and left the kitchen. Y/N took her spot.
"You love me Pete?" I nodded my head as I tried not to stare about her.
"Pete, please look at me."
I just my eyes and took a deep breath and finally looked into Y/N's eyes.
"I love you too Pete. I believe I always have but you know life got in the way and I,"
I couldn't focus past that she just told me she loves me too. I leaned forward and kissed her.
Y/N responded by wrapping her arms around my neck and I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her flushed against my chest.
We broke apart and I muttered "fuck" and kissed her again.
We broke apart once more, gasping for breath.
"Go out to dinner with me tonight?" Y/N nodded her head yes.
That night we went our first date, then our second and third. I took her slow with her, not wanting to rush with Y/N.
But eight months later I was down on one knee, proposing to the love of my life. We were at the same restaurant where we had our first date.
Y/N said yes of course and our engagement was on social media that night. Before that night, we kept our relationship out of the spotlight as much as possible, so many people were shocked to find out I was engaged to someone else.
Someone who wasn't famous and didn't work in the industry. Social media went crazy when the news broke out that we had a small wedding ceremony back in Staten Island with only our closest friends and family.
My life has always been crazy and filled with sadness, but ever since Y/N came back into my life, I have felt nothing but happiness.
I finally have someone to come home too. She is my world and she is my life.

Just wanted to tell you that i absolutely love the idea of the rich boys travelling to Taiwan and meeting the History boys! I love the au btw. ♡
Aww thank you! I’ll think about the idea some more when I have time. But it’s probably going to be CHAOS.
Also since I mentioned TayNew, it’s a matter of time before someone argues that Pete should be one of the rich boys. But TBH, he’s so insular with his gang, I doubt he’d associate with the other rich boys half as nicely unless Kao finds out about the group chat because Pete mentions about how it goes off all the time and then he chastises him about ignoring his friends.

They both need you now more than ever.
Word count: 2.4k
Chapter Eleven - Not again
♡♡♡
Rooster takes you to a little diner so you can both eat and talk. He missed you while you were gone, but he understands you have a family to look out for. You both grab a table and get comfortable, ordering something to drink to start off with. While the waitress does that, you turn to Bradley.
“How have you been?” You ask him.
Rooster has his eyes focused on the table in front of him. His hands rest on it, clasped together. There is something on his mind, you can tell, but you’ll wait and let him tell you on his own.
“Hangman brought up that Maverick flew with my dad. It’s probably better that he thinks that’s why I’m mad at Maverick, but it didn’t hurt any less to hear him talk about my dad like that.”
You reach over and place your hands on his wrists, making Bradley look up at you.
“It’s alright to be mad but think about who you’re mad at. Be mad at Hangman for bringing that up, but don’t be mad at Maverick anymore. You’re here, aren’t you?” 
Bradley nods.
In the next moment the waitress has returned and brought you both your drinks. You both take a look at the menu and order something to eat. When she’s gone again, you turn back to Rooster.
“You have what it takes for this mission,” you tell him.
Bradley looks at you before turning his eyes out of the window.
“I don’t think Mav has changed his mind,” he says to you.
“No? He came over and had a chat with my husband. If anyone can get some sense into him, it’s Iceman,” you say. “You’ll see, Maverick is rethinking everything now. You’ll be on that mission. He trusts you.”
“I’m not getting my hopes up.”
“Have some faith in me, Bradley. It will come out on top in the end.”
“I wish I had your optimism.”
 You laugh softly.
“It’s called a brave face. I have to be. I’ve let things slip before because I let go too soon. You have to hang on tight to what’s in front of you and keep holding on until you’re sure you can carry on no longer. In most cases, you can see things through to the end. That comes with this job. All the times I had to wait for Tom to come home, no matter how long he was gone for. I gave up once because I thought I couldn’t handle it. That was my biggest mistake. Not putting you on the mission will be Maverick’s mistake, and I will show him that if he doesn’t choose you.”
Bradley looks at you in silence.
“Hold on for me, OK?”
He nods in response.
The waitress arrives with your food in hand, and you let go of Bradley so she can put the dishes on the table. You both thank her quietly before she leaves you again.
“No one has successfully flown the low-level course yet in training,” he tells you.
“How long do you have?”
“Three weeks, just.”
“You have time to pull this off,” you remind him.
He shakes his head slightly, poking at his food. You watch him.
“Goose would have had faith in Maverick. He knew Maverick likes to take risks, but he still would have flown with him anyway. I look at you and I see him sometimes.”
Bradley stays silent.
You sigh softly and take a bite out of your food.
“How long are you staying?” He asks, hoping to change the subject. He feels awful about it because he knew you were one of his dad’s dear friends, and normally he would love nothing more than to talk about him with you. Not today though.
“I’m staying the night. Staying at Maverick’s place. Why?”
He hesitates before he answers.
“Can I see you after training tomorrow?”
You offer him a small smile.
“Of course, you can.”
“You have access to the base?” He asks.
“I may be able to swing some. I’ll put in a word with my husband, maybe he can say a little something to Cyclone,” you wink.
Bradley smiles.
You don’t say anything more about Top Gun, Goose, or Maverick while you eat. The conversation moves onto more casual things, and he seems happy enough to talk about whatever springs to mind.
You pat for the meals and walk out to his truck with him.
“Can I drop you off?” He asks.
“That would be great.”
You climb into his Bronco, and he takes you to Mav’s place, which seems empty upon arrival. He was still with Penny, it seemed. You check the time.
“Probably at Penny’s place,” Bradley says.
“I don’t even want to think about what they could be doing,” you joke. Bradley laughs.
A moment of silence passes.
“I need to know why he did it.”
You look up at him.
“I know. I’m only asking that you find a reason to stop hating him. Maverick loves you, Bradley. You’re family.”
He doesn’t say anything as he looks at his steering wheel.
You thank him for the ride and tell him you’ll see him tomorrow. He doesn’t leave until he sees you go into the house. You hear him drive off not long after the door closes.
It’s late when Maverick gets in.
You’re sitting on the sofa flipping through the TV when he comes home. You look up as the door opens and see him with a soft look on his face. You smile and say nothing, waiting to see if he notices you.
He doesn’t. Not right away. It takes him a moment to comprehend the TV is on and then he looks up. He sees you sitting there looking at him.
“What time do you call this?” You ask, grinning.
Maverick pretends to look at his watch.
“Past my curfew.”
You laugh. Maverick smiles as he drapes his jacket over the sofa and takes a seat next to you. You turn the TV off and look at him.
“Busy, were you?”
He grins.
“Very.”
“Poor Penny,” you laugh.
Maverick shakes his head with a smile.
“Did you speak to him then?” He asks, after a short pause.
“I did.”
“And?”
“He’s still not your friend, but I’ve given him some things to think about. You two really need to talk it out.”
“He won’t,” Pete says.
“He might now.”
The conversation ends there. You get Maverick something to eat from his kitchen and then make a bed up on the sofa. He tries to stop you, but you remind him this is his home. You’re his guest. Maverick knows better than to argue with you.
Once Maverick has gone to bed, you climb into your own little makeshift one and pull out your phone. You know it’s late, but you want to try and contact Tom about tomorrow.
You: Are you awake?
You stare at your phone screen but see nothing to give away he saw the message. You could assume he was asleep, which you were actually glad about. He needed all the rest he could get.
A moment later, your phone pings with a reply.
Tom: Sleep escapes when you are not here. I’m as much awake as you are.
You: Normally I would tell you off for still being up, but as you’re awake, I have a favour to ask of you.
Tom: Another favour? Go on.
You roll your eyes at his text and type out your reply.
You: I need access to the base tomorrow. Bradley has asked me to be there tomorrow. He wants to meet with me after training.
Tom: I shall put in a request for you then. If anyone asks, you’re there for Maverick.
You: Thank you. Now, go to sleep. You need to rest.
Tom: I love you.
You: I love you too!
You put your phone away and close your eyes with a smile.
In the morning, you wake up along with Maverick and grab something to eat before heading out to base. Mav takes you there on his bike. You mention having access to the base under Ice’s request, and that you’re there because of him, not Rooster. Mav understands and walks in with you. You’re cleared with Cyclone and shown to a room where you can listen in on the training. Mavrick tells you he’ll send Rooster up when it’s done.
You get comfortable and turn the radio on, waiting to hear them in the sky.
Though you don’t know the exact details of the mission, you get the gist of it when you hear them communicating up in the air.
Maverick is up with them as a bandit, setting up a scenario that may very well happen on the day. You lean forward in your seat as you listen to them yell over the radio.
Coyote, Phoenix, and Bob are up in the air right now. They miss the target and start the harsh incline where, on the day, they will be doing this over a mountain.
Maverick gets tone on Phoenix and Bob. That would be them dead.
“Level out, Coyote,” you hear Maverick say.
Something is wrong.
“Coyote? Do you copy?”
You lean even closer to the radio.
Maverick is still trying to call out to Coyote, but he gets no response. What you don’t see is that Coyote is blacking out in his plane. The pressure from the incline put a toll on him, which they were all aware would happen, but Coyote was unable to fight it. His jet is dropping out of sky.
You listen closely as Maverick goes after him.
“Give me tone, give me tone, give me tone.”
You hear the consistent beeping sound of his radio.
Coyote wakes, pulls up, and is back in it. You feel relief when you hear his voice over the radio.
“That was close,” you hear Phoenix say.
“Too close,” Mav replies.
A couple seconds of silence and then:
“Bird strike! Bird strike!”
You stare at the radio in shock. This was not a good day to be in the air, it seemed.
From what you hear, Phoenix and Bob have been struck and they have lost an engine. She instantly takes control of the situation by throttling back and shutting off the fuel to the left engine. She extinguishes the fire. Right then the right engine goes. She tries to restart it. It sets on fire. Maverick tries to warn her, but not in enough time. She throttles up.
The jet spins out of control on fire. You hear the panic.
You think of Maverick.
No.
No, not again.
“Eject! Eject!”
You forget how to breathe. All you can hear is noise on the radio and then running in the hall outside. You shut the radio off and take a deep breath.
This is how you lost Goose.
Maverick. Oh, Maverick.
You stand up, ready to leave the room, but the door opens and Cyclone steps on. He meets your gaze. He relaxes his shoulders.
“The emergency helicopter has been sent out.”
You just nod silently.
“Stay here, I’ll get Maverick.”
Cyclone leaves. You fall back into your chair.
When door opens next, you expect it to be Maverick, but are pleasantly surprised to see Rooster. Bradley meets your eyes and then comes in, sitting down quietly. You follow him with your eyes, but he says nothing. You wait a moment and then move closer to him.
“Bradley?”
“They’re alive,” he says. You find yourself full of relief. You move your eyes to the floor. Bradley raises his to look at you for a moment. He can’t help wondering what you’re thinking about.
He knows how his dad died. He hopes you’re OK. He knew you had been listening in on the radio.
“You OK?” He asks.
You look up and meet his eyes, nodding.
“I’ll be fine. Are you?”
He nods.
The door opens again, and Maverick comes in. He sees you both sitting together.
“They’ll keep Phoenix and Bob in the hospital overnight for observation. They’re going to be okay,” he says.
Bradley doesn’t look at him. You offer Maverick a small smile.
“I’ve never lost a wingman,” Rooster says.
You look at him.
“You’re lucky,” Maverick responds. You bow your head down. “Fly long enough, it’ll happen. There will be others.”
Maverick turns around.
“Easy for you to say. No wife. No kids. Nobody to mourn you when you burn in.”
“Bradley,” you whisper, looking at him. It hurt to hear him say that.
“Go home,” Maverick mutters. “Just get some sleep.”
Rooster shoots up out of his chair. You watch with concern as he faces Maverick and asks: “Why’d you pull my papers at the Academy? Why did you stand in my way?” He yells.
“You weren’t ready,” Maverick replies.
“Ready for what? Huh? Ready to fly like you?”
“No. Ready to forget the book. Trust your instincts. Don’t think, just do.” Maverick stares Rooster down. You stand from your chair, ready to break them apart if you have to. You did not come here to watch them fight.
It seems like Bradley didn’t think much about what you told him after all.
“You think up there, you’re dead. Believe me.”
“My dad believed in you.”
Maverick look taken back with Rooster’s words. You stare at the pair of them, just wanting them to stop this.
“I’m not gonna make the same mistake,” Bradley says.
You swear your heart just broke.
Maverick falls into silence as he stares at Bradley. You go to step forward, ready to say something, anything, but Warlock enters the room. All eyes turn to him. He’s looking at you.
“What is it?” You ask.
Maverick turns his head to you and then back to Warlock. Something changes in his expression.
“It’s Admiral Kazansky... Your daughter was on the phone, she was trying to contact you.”
“Shit,” you mutter.
Maverick and Rooster watch you with their eyes as you run out of the room. Warlock turns to them.
“What is it?” Maverick asks.
Warlock doesn’t say anything. Pete clenches his jaw and glances at Bradley before darting out of the room after you.
He doesn’t have a good feeling about any of this.
Warlock looks at Rooster. Bradley is silent as he leaves the room, following the direction you and Maverick have gone in.
Dread sets in.

Something Worth Protecting
Tumblr media
Iceman x Dragon
Bodyguard AU
Dragon's popularity has grown tremendously, and as she takes off on tour, a security team has been hired to see it through. Leading that team is Tom Kazansky. He's the best in the business. He is here to do a job, but for the first time in his career, feelings are involved. He can't get too involved or he'll lose his job. Yet, ignoring what he desires is harder than it looks.
[Masterlist]
[Next Chapter]
Prologue
♡♡♡
"Did you send Pete the flowers?"
"I sent Pete the flowers."
"And thanked Penny for her help?"
"I thanked Penny for her help."
Rachael was on the phone to her manager Jade. About to take off for her tour, there was much to do before she left. Rachael Kingsley, or Dragon as she is known by her fans, was about to start a new chapter of her life. For years she had worked hard to get to this point. It almost felt like she had become the next big thing overnight.
"Your security will be with you first thing in the morning."
"Security?"
"Yes, security. Your going on tour. Travelling from one city to another. We need to keep you safe."
"What about you?"
"You think I need security? Have you met me?"
Rachael laughs down the phone.
"I meant why aren't you coming with me? Who needs security when they have you?"
Jade smiles. "I'd love to, but I can't manage you and look out for you."
"Pity."
"Listen, gorgeous. I love you to bits, but I need a professional to help me keep you safe on your travels. I'll be there for every show, don't get me wrong, but someone else is going to be watching your back."
"Okay. They better be good!" Rachael teases.
"Oh, they will be."
The chat then turns casual and they hang up an hour later. Rachael prepares herself for what was about to happen. The woman is filed with adrenaline, or was it anxiety? Sometimes the lines blurred and she couldn't tell.
This would be her first ever tour. She had no idea what to expect.
The next morning she is waiting patiently for her security to arrive. They would pick her up from her house and be with her every step of the way.
There's a knock at her door.
Rachael jumps slightly.
She had zoned out. The noise has shaken her. She goes to answer the door. What she sees is not what she expected. She didn't know what to expect, but Rachael could admit her breath had caught in her throat
Standing on her doorstep was a tall handsome blond man. Bright grey eyes were looking at her. For a moment she forgot where she was.
"Hello."
She dies little on the inside. This man was wearing a smart sleek black suit. His posture was stiff and his face was still. She didn't even have to guess who this was. And she just said hello. Pathetic.
"Miss Kingsley?"
"Yes."
"We are ready when you are."
His voice is smooth like butter melting. She's never heard a voice so... beautiful before.
"Right."
Rachael grabs her things and hands them over to her bodyguard, who waits for them expectantly. As she locks up her home, which she wouldn't see for a few months, she realises she never caught his name.
"What's your name?" She asks.
The handsome blond looks up at her. His face as expressionless as ever.
"Kazansky."
She was hoping for more, but he turned away to open the door for her. She sighs softly and climbs into the sleek black vehicle.
This was it. Her tour was starting here.
Rachael Kinglsey was a nervous wreck and had no idea what she was doing, if she was being honest. Yet, she can't deny the excitement bubbling within.
This tour would be more than she bargained for.

Chapter Nine - The captain and the admiral
♡♡♡
You spent the whole day with Tom. More so, he spent the whole day with you. After the doctor left and you cried it out in the office, Tom got up, taking you with him, and went to make you some tea. You moaned about his tea getting cold in his office, but he didn't care.
He only cared about you.
Hearing the news Tom could only get worse, you weren’t in the mood to do much of anything for the rest of the day. Tom didn’t mind that. He made you both some tea and took you into the living room. You sat down and watched him get comfortable next to you.
Your eyes lingered on him. Tom turned his bright blue eyes to you to watch you too. He could tell from the look in your eyes what you were thinking. His hand reaches out to take yours, closing around your hand securely. It’s a sign that he’s right there in front of you, still breathing, still well.
You can’t help yourself from leaning against his side. Tom is quick to let go of your hand and move his arm around you, holding you to him. He kisses the top of your head as it settles against his shoulder.
It’s these moments that become the most important, because you don’t know how many more of these you’ll get. Yes, the doctor said he could recover again like last time, but the weighing possibility that his life is on the line, that overshadows all other thoughts.
“I need to speak to Mitchell,” Tom says, quietly.
You don’t move your head, staying in that position. Mostly for the reason of him not seeing your face.
“Yeah, so do I.”
Another kiss to your head. You close your eyes and feel his warmth.
“I’ll get him to come over as soon as possible.”
You don’t say anything, just a slight nod with your head. The fact that you’re going to have to talk about this is making your head, and your heart, hurt. All Tom can offer you is a comforting hug.
“Look at me,” he says.
You wipe at your cheeks before lifting your heard up. You meet his eyes.
Tom smiles.
You’re sitting here in tears, heart aching, having received news you didn’t want to hear, fearing for the worst, and he’s smiling. You look at him confused.
“How? How are you smiling right now?”
Tom’s smile doesn’t falter.
“Because I have everything, I could possibly need right here in front of me. I know I’m going to be alright because I have you.”
“I can’t make you better,” you say, voice wobbling as you speak.
He still smiles at you.
“You always make me better,” he tells you.
Tom pulls you back into his chest when another flow of tears begins to fall. He chuckles softly. This is the most he’s ever made you cry in your lifetime in such a short span of time. He swears he will never make you cry like this again.
Though it’s not something he can guarantee.
When you manage to calm yourself a little bit, you sit up and drink the tea your husband lovingly made for you. This is the first time today anything has felt normal. Sitting with your husband, though you normally would have the radio on in the background, drinking tea and chatting softly.
If anyone saw you here and now, no one would know that the pair of you were hurting so badly.
“Are the children coming?” He asks.
“No today. I can’t... not today.”
He nods his head in understanding. 
Tomorrow you will tell the children, and he will get Maverick over here so he can talk to him. Everything needs to come out in the open, and Maverick needs someone he trusts to tell him what he needs to hear.
The next day when you wake up, you find Tom already awake. He’s watching you with his beautiful eyes. You lay there and smile softly at him. Tom got up again last night to get more water. You heard his coughing and waited for him to get back to bed, repeating the other night.
“Morning,” you whisper.
“Good morning,” he smiles. His voice sounds raw again.
“How did you sleep?”
“About as well I usually do these days.”
You frown slightly. Tom immediately pulls you into his arms and holds you. He’s nice and warm, making you smile as you get comfortable again. He chuckles as he knows you’re drifting off again.
“We really should get up,” he says to you.
“In a minute,” you reply, burying your face further into his chest. Tom laughs again.
He would give anything to freeze this moment with you.
Still, he was able to coax you out of bed. You got up, got ready for the day, and waits until your husband was ready before heading downstairs and making breakfast. He stuck by your side as you cooked, not wanting to be too far away.
You were glad for that.
Breakfast was pleasant. You both sat, ate, and talked. He made you laugh. You made him smile.
A little while later, Tom was sitting in the garden with a newspaper in hand. You were in the kitchen cleaning up after breakfast, radio on. It all felt very normal. You were only interrupted by the door a few moments later. You stopped what you were doing to go and answer it.
Tom lowered is paper and listened. He knew who that was. You had called the children earlier, telling them to come over. You had something important to tell them. He folds the paper up and puts it to the side. When he comes into the house, he sees you at the door hugging your son and daughter. Nikki was crying. Tommy didn’t seem to know what to do.
When their father steps into view, they both turn away from you to look at him. Nikki is quick to rush over and pull him into a hug. Tom holds her close and lets her cry.
Tommy waits for his sister before going over to his dad. Tom looks at his boy and feels his heart ache when Tommy lets his own tears finally fall.
You had told them what the doctor had said.
“Is there nothing we can do?” Nikki asks, looking between her parents.
You shake your head softly.
“If there was, I would be doing it,” you said, wiping at your eyes.
“Whatever happens,” Tom begins, “I have my family, and that’s all I care about. You’ll all be well looked after if I am not here.”
You shake your head at him.
“Please don’t say that. I don’t know what I’ll do without you,” you mutter.
“Whatever you need, we’re here,” Nikki says, looking at you both.
You just pull her into a hug, which she welcomes with ease. Tommy goes back over to hug his father, unable to help himself. It wasn’t often Tommy got all physically affectionate with his parents, usually expressing his love in other ways, but if there was ever a time to hug his parents, it was now.
Once everything had settled, and you had answered Nikki and Tommy’s questions, the pair sat down to talk between themselves. You stood in the kitchen with Tom, who held his phone in his hand.
“You contact Pete and get him to get his ass over here. This thing with Rooster and Goose needs to settle. He has to let go.”
Tom nods.
It took you some time to get over what happened to Goose. You carried some guilt around with you for not being there more for Maverick when the accident happened. You were at such a loss of what to do, when Tom came to offer comfort, you took it. Maverick had no one to go to.
Pete has been carrying around the guilt and pain of Goose’s death all his life.
Ice: I need to see you.
You looked at the phone, giving Tom a soft pat on his shoulder before leaving him to it. If anyone could get Maverick into gear, it would be Iceman.
Maverick replies pretty quickly.
Mav: Not a good time.
Tom would roll his eyes at this response, but there was too much going on for that right now. He needed to see Pete.
Ice: I’m not asking.
That’s enough to get Pete moving. He knows it. Maverick won’t deny him this.
A day passes. The children bring the grandchildren over to see their grandfather. Time felt like the worst enemy right now, and all any of you wanted to do was spend time together as a family. The thought of inviting Rooster around sometime soon crossed your mind. Bradley was family too.
Tom’s coughing has got a little worse overnight, and the fear of time catching up is strong.
There’s a knock at the door.
You leave the children in the garden to go answer it, having a pretty good idea at who it is. You open the door and there he stands.
“Pete,” you smile at him softly.
“Hey,” he replies.
You pull him into a hug. A pretty tight one. He hugs you back, after half a second of confusion. You seemed... a little down. You part from him and he enters your home. He walks over to the table of photos you have. All your family is on there.
You take a deep breath as you follow him over.
“Maverick,” you whisper.
Pete turns slowly to look at you, a smile on his face. He’s so happy to see you, but then he sees the way you’re looking at him. His smile fades.
“It’s come back?” He asks.
“We’re not sure... but it looks like it.”
He glances away for a moment. He wonders if this is why Ice wanted to see him.
“There’s nothing anyone can do, Pete. It’s a waiting game...”
He meets your eyes again.
“He, uh, he sounds a bit rough. That’s from his constant coughing. He still wants to talk to you though.”
Pete reaches out and takes your hands.
“How are you?”
“I’ve been better. Pete, if I lose him...”
Pete pulls you into another bone crushing hug. You cling to his jacket as you try not cry, again.
“I know, I know,” he whispers. “Where is he?” He asks softly.
You pull away and wipe under your eyes a little.
“In his office. You won’t be interrupted there, and he can communicate with you in there. I told him not talk too much,” you chuckle softly. Pete smiles in return and nods at you.
Pete places his hand on your shoulder as he walks past you and goes upstairs.
You watch him go, and then excuse yourself, not wanting the children to see you cry all over again. All you seem to do these days is cry.
Pete heads up to the office and stands outside of the door. He looks at it, taking a deep breath. He opens the door and enters quietly. Tom is sitting in his chair, back to him, waiting. As Pete closes the door, Tom coughs. It doesn’t sound good at all.
“Admiral,” Pete says, walking further into the room.
Tom turns in his chair and sees Mitchell coming toward him. He turns in his chair as Pete pulls another chair over to sit in front of him. Maverick reaches out and pats his friend on the arm.
“How’s my wingman?” Pete asks.
Tom turns to his computer. You had set it up for him this way so he could to Pete without using his voice much. You feared talking too much would bring more coughing. This morning he struggled to say good morning to you, and it worried him how upset you had become.
There was no easy way around this.
Pete turns to the computer to see the bright white letters Kazansky was typing out.
I want to talk about work.
Pete shakes his head.
“Please, don’t worry about me. What can I do for you?” He asks his friend.
Tom stares at Pete and points to the computer.
Pete sighs looking at the words again.
“All right. Well, Rooster’s still angry with me about what I did. I thought eventually he would understand why. I hoped he’d forgive me.”
Tom nods softly and then leans forward to type again.
There’s still time.
Pete shakes his head.
“The mission is less than three weeks away. The kid’s not ready.”
Then teach him.
“He doesn’t want what I have to give,” Pete says, shifting in his seat.
Tom waves his hand in a dismissive manner.
“Ice, please, don’t ask me to send someone else to die.” Pete pleads.
Tom is glad for a moment that you’re not in the room. To hear Pete say that would break your heart again.
“Please don’t. Don’t ask me to send him. Send me.”
Tom types again. He stops, turns to Pete, and watches him as his friend reads what he typed out.
Pete looks at the words in silence. His feelings building up inside of him.
It’s time to let go.
Pete tries to blink away his tears. He looks at Ice. Ice is still looking at him. He can’t hide the effect those words had on him.
“I don’t know how,” Pete whispers. “I’m not a teacher, Ice. I’m a fighter pilot.” Mav wipes at his face. “A naval aviator. It’s not what I am. It’s who I am. How do I teach that? Even if I could teach it, it’s not what Rooster wants. It’s not what the navy wants. That’s why they canned me the last time. The only reason I’m here is you.”
Ice listens to him.
“If I send him on this mission,” Pete continues, “he might never come home. And if I don’t send him, he’ll never forgive me. Either way, I could lose him forever.”
Pete sighs, the tears still in his eyes.
Ice’s words remain on the computer screen.
It’s time to let go.
“I know. I know.”
Tom grunts softly as he stands up. Pete joins him. Ice coughs and then wets his lips. You would definitely scold him if you heard him now, but it’s what Maverick needs.
“The navy needs Maverick. The kid needs Maverick. That’s why I fought for you.  That’s why you’re still here.”
Ice pulls Maverick into a hug. Pete hugs his dear friend.
“Thank you, Ice, for everything,” Mav whispers.
They part after a moment of hugging. Ice is smiling at Mav.
“One last thing,” Ice says, holding Mav by the shoulders, “who’s the better pilot? You or me?” He grins at Mav.
“This is a nice moment. Let’s not ruin it,” Mav says.
They both laugh.
The two hug again.
You’re in the kitchen when Pete comes down, soon followed by your husband. You walk over and greet them as they stand by the door. Pete turns to you with a smile.
“Look after him,” he points at you.
“Always,” you chuckle.
Pete pulls you into another big hug.
“Call me if you need me,” he whispers.
“I will. It’s good to see you, Mav,” you give him a squeeze. “Look after Rooster,” you say, pulling away from him.
Tom and Pete share a look, before Pete nods at you.
You look between them with confusion, but Tom just shakes his at you with a smile. You narrow your eyes at him before turning to Pete, who says nothing and waves with a laugh before leaving your house
You turn to your husband.
“What did you two talk about?”
Tom goes to speak, but then you instantly cover his mouth.
“Wait! No talking. Rest your voice,” you say, lowering your hand from his lips. Tom smiles softly at you before pulling you in for a kiss. You chuckle.
Tom wants to keep you smiling for as long as he can.
He fears there may be a bump in the road coming.
As you free yourself from his grasp, you turn and go to head into the kitchen. However, you don’t get very far before you feel a hand on your ass. You stop and turn to face your husband.
Tom grins at you.
“Sir, what has gotten into you?” You ask, chuckling.
Tom just gives you a cheeky look and walks with you into the kitchen.
You’re laughing. That’s all that matters. He’ll keep making you laugh until he can’t no more.
Pete climbs back on his bike and looks back at the house before leaving. He didn’t get to chat to you much, but he’ll make up for that later. He had some things to think about, and he knows Tom has some things to think about regarding you too.
Mitchell couldn’t shake the feeling of something coming, but for now, he needed to get his team into gear, and he had the perfect idea for it.

Our Beautiful Baylie
Tumblr media
Iceman x Dragon + Daughter Baylie
Dedicated to @bayisdying
A spin off alternate timeline where Baylie is the biological daughter of Ice & Dragon.
[Masterlist]
[Previous Chapter] - [Next Chapter]
Chapter Four - Iceman's daughter
♡♡♡
Tom's first day back at base and he was missing his beautiful Baylie already. Saying goodbye to her this morning was hard. Dragon knew it too.
That's why Rachael comes to base with the stroller. She smiles at her colleagues who stop to chat with her and see Baylie. She's a popular little lady. Everyone comments about how gorgeous she is.
When Tom sees his wife with the stroller coming toward him, he smiles brightly. Not only is his gorgeous wife here, but his daughter too.
Whiskey wastes no time in pushing ahead though. She pulls her best friend into a big hug and then looks at Baylie.
"She's beautiful!" Jade gasps. "Hi, honey! I'm your Aunt Whiskey. We're going to be best friends!"
Rachael chuckles.
Tom comes to stand next to his wife and he pulls her into his arms. She smiles as she leans against him and kisses him softly.
"Hey mama," he whispers. "You brought our daughter to the base?"
"I think she was missing her daddy, and I know you missed her too. Maybe you could show her around a little and I can catch up with Whiskey."
He smiles. "Alright. I'm glad you came."
"Me too. I'll see you in a little bit."
Ice gives his wife another kiss and then takes the stroller. His daughter wakes and finds herself looking at her papa and a stranger.
"Hey kiddo, I'm your uncle Sli," Ron smiles at her. Baylie just continues to look up at them.
Ice smiles at his daughter.
"Look at you being a big softy. Being a dad suits you, Ice," Slider says.
Ice smiles at him. "I love her very much."
Slider grins. "I know. She loves you too. I can see it in her eyes. The way she's looking at you."
Ice looks back down at his baby and, just as Slider said, Baylie is looking up at him.
"Ice."
Both men look up and see their commanding officer.
"A word."
Ice nods and then turns to Slider. "Will you watch over my girl for a moment?" He asks.
Slider smiles. "Of course. I'll look after her."
Ice smiles and then leaves Slider with the stroller as he follows his commander. Slider pushes the stroller slowly down the hall. Baylie is looking up at him.
"You're going to have such a big family, kiddo. Jade and I are going to be there whenever you or your parents need us, and we can't forget uncle Mav and uncle Goose. Hey, you'll meet Bradley sooner or later. Maybe Jade and I will be able to give you another friend. Either way, you're going to be surrounded by so many people who will love you."
Baylie starts to fuss slightly. Slider rocks the stroller gently, but Baylie starts to cry. Slider panics a little.
"Are you hungry? Did you poop?"
Gently, he lifts Baylie from her stroller and holds her close to him. "Are you missing your papa? He will be back soon."
Baylie cries. Slider does the only thing he can think of doing. He rocks her gently and starts to make plane noises. He doesn't know why it's the first thing he thinks of, but as Baylie starts to quiet down, he realises it works.
"Huh, would you look at that? Maybe we have a tiny pilot on our hands," he chuckles. "Wonder if one day you'll follow in your parents footsteps."
Baylie gazes up at him with her pretty eyes.
"I do not envy the man who steals your heart. I can see just how proud my best buddy Ice is of you. They'll have to go through him before they can have you," he laughs. "It's nice to finally meet you, Baylie. We have all been excited to see you."
At that moment, Maverick and Goose comes around the corner.
"Kerner? Who's kid is that? Didn't take you for a kidnapper," Goose teases.
"Ha. Ha. She's Kazansky's."
"This is Baylie?" Nick comes over and has a look. "Baby Kazansky. Now she's a cutie!"
Pete comes over and smiles.
"Little Baylie. She's going to be a fighter when she's older, I can see it."
Ice comes down the hall and sees all three men fussing over his daughter. He smiles. These were just a few of the people Baylie would be growing up around.
"I'm back."
Ron smiles as he hands Baylie over to her daddy. Ice holds his girl. He can't look away from her. The guys smile at him.
The moment is only broken when the ladies return to the group. Dragon and Whiskey are laughing. When they see Ice with his daughter, the laughter softens. Dragon joins her husband at his side and rests her head against his arm. They both look at their girl.
"The Kazansky's," Ron chuckles, wrapping an arm around his wife. "No one is going to mess with this family."
Whiskey chuckles.
Mav and Goose smile at Dragon. She smiles back at them.
"You look good," Mav says.
"I feel good."
Goose pulls her into a hug and she laughs. "Look at you, all grown up!"
"Nick!" She laughs.
"I can't wait for Bradley to meet her."
"Soon! I'll bring her round soon."
"Scarlet and I will look forward to it."
Tom puts Baylie back into the stroller and then turns back to Rachael.
"Shall we go?"
"You done?" She asks.
He nods. Rachael smiles and said bye to everyone. Ice and Dragon leave base.
Ice just wanted to go home and look after Baylie. He missed her today.
