Money Ties (Jungkook Love Story || Pt.9)
Pt.8 || Pt.10
Your parents have worked hard to get to the top and have made sure to teach you everything you need to know to be successful in this business: from tough but lucrative financial decisions, down to the right ball gown for any given banquet. A promising and extravagant future awaits you- that is, if you agree to one teensy detail...
Son of Mr.Jeon Sr. and heir to June Company, Jeon Jungkook is an immature playboy with nothing to offer a woman but good looks and a crap ton of money, and he stands to inherit much MUCH more, so long as you both enter into the arranged marriage contract that was drawn up before the pair of you were even born.
You're more than willing to try, but you're not sure you'll be able to stand each other long enough to inherit a single penny...

Recap: For years, you've heard people say that your first time isn't as special as the movies make it seem. They say it's something to just get done and move on from so you can start having good sex- and maybe that's true for some people, but this? You like this.
- Lisa: Kookie, where are you? I miss you <3
Your heart begins to pound in your chest. You look over at the bathroom door, still closed, though you've heard a flush.
Without another thought, you dart out of the bed, quickly yanking on your clothes, making sure to leave absolutely no trace of yourself behind in that room.
You finally hear the bathroom door open though when you do, the hotel room door is already clicking shut behind you.
Tumblr media
You sit in front of your computer, brows furrowed in concentration as your eyes dart from one tab to the next, typing furiously. Since you've been back home, you've been working non-stop, getting everything ready for your transition from your parents' business to Jeon Company. Beside the tedious tasks to be completed before going back to Seoul, you've made it a point not to think too much about your return.
"Don't you think you should at least respond to his messages?" B/f/n says one night on facetime. "I've been responding to mine and his mother's messages, he knows I'm fine, there's nothing to talk about." "Y/n, he walks around here like a lost puppy. He tries to hide it but it's so obvious." "Tell Lisa where her dog is then." "Y/n, maybe it was a misunderstanding." "Honestly, I don't really care anymore. I've made my peace with the idea that he might end up being my husband but he will never...never be mine," The sting is present but you ignore it. "There's no way you've made any sort of peace with...any of this. What you guys did was kind of a big deal." "It...was what it was. It was gonna happen anyway, and now I'm glad we didn't wait until the wedding night so we wouldn't kid ourselves into thinking it's some sacred act." "But it was." "I've uh, gotta go," You say, having received a notification of an incoming call on your apple watch. B/f/n sighs, "Alright...talk later." "Yeah." Without another word, you hang up the call.
It's not that you mean to be mean. You can feel yourself being short with your parents, with B/f/n, but you can't bring yourself to continue answering their questions. How are you? Why haven'y you called? Did something happen between you and Jungkook? What happened? It's humiliating enough to know he fucked you without any real plans to ever get rid of his ex-girlfriend- you don't need to be telling the whole world about it. The only reason you even told B/f/n about it was because she was the one who drove you to the airport. She could immediately tell something was off and you couldn't hold it in for any longer and began crying and carrying on. You've never been one for dramatics and tears...but this one stung. No, worse... This one might have finally broken your spirit.

"I could oversee the Australia branch on this one if you want. I'm much more familiar with the market over there -" You're trying to focus on the presentation being given by a member of the marketing department, though your mind keeps teetering back and forth between the information and your personal life. Suddenly, you see a txt message notification pop up at the corner of your laptop screen. Jungkook. Your heart skips a beat, though you quickly dismiss it and turn your attention back to the front of the room, but it doesn't stop- another message, another message, another- soon you have 5 messages from him. You bite your lip, feeling anxious to know what he's saying but not wanting to give in. "Uhm, you'll have to excuse me for just a moment," You say, shooting out of your chair and abruptly walking out of the room, leaving everyone staring at you from the other side of the big glass wall as you walk down the hall.
You take your phone out and unlock it, quickly opening up to his messages.

"What the fuck..." You mumble, furrowing your brows. Is he having a stroke or something? You slap your hand to your forehead and press the call button on his contact. You swore you wouldn't talk to him at all while you were back at home, yet here you are, calling him. It rings only twice and then you can hear rustling on the other side, along with loud music.
"J-Jungkook?" You say into the phone, suddenly unsure if he meant to answer it, as it takes him quite a few seconds to say anything. "Y/n? Y/n- can you hear me?" He says loudly into the phone, his tone surprised and desperate. "Yes...I can hear you."
"Y/n, why haven't you been answering me?" "Because...I needed some space." "Space? After what we did?" It isn't until now that you notice his speech is a bit slurred. "Yeah, I needed space...hey, are you drunk?" "Are you still gonna marry me?" "Answer the question, Y/n." "You first," You narrow your eyes at the wall as though he were standing right in front of you. "Alright, fine. I may have had a few beverages. But it's your fault." "Please, tell me how this is my fault?" "Because you left me. You used me and then left me." You let out a bitter laugh, "Right, I used you." "So are you gonna marry me or what?" He repeats.
"I'm hanging up." "The phone or the relationship?" "You're not even making sense, Jungkook," You know perfectly well what he means, but you don't want to have this conversation with him, knowing how absolutely inebriated he sounds. "You don't make sense," He sounds much like a child. "Good bye." You don't let him get in another word before you hang up the phone.
You don't immediately return to the meeting, deciding you need a moment to gather yourself. As angry as you are, hearing his voice was oddly comforting. You hate that.
Tumblr media
It's the last day of your time back home and you've packed up a lot of your things that you'll be sending to Seoul. The departure is bitter... there is no more sweet left in you to give you hope for your arrival at your new home. You don't know how you're gonna do it... your mom tried to talk you into having a bridal shower but you managed to wiggle out of it, though not without compromise. "What time is the fitting on Wednesday?" You ask your mom. "1PM. I arranged for everyone to meet fifteen minutes early though," She says excitedly. By everyone, she means herself, Mrs.Jeon, and all of your bridesmaids...including Lisa. For two to three hours, you'd be forced to play nice with the person at the center of your current rage- well, one of the people at the center. You'd be marrying the other one after. Though you suppose two to three hours is better than an entire night for a bridal shower.
"Make sure you sleep on the plane, the Jeon's invited us to dinner when you get back." "Great." "Don't start, Y/n. After Friday afternoon, they'll be family. You need to start playing smart." "I'm not playing a game to begin with," You say wearily. "Now, I don't know what happened between you and Jungkook-" You prepare to argue with her and tell her to mind her business, but she cuts you off, "-BUT- you need to put it aside and make amends. You cannot start this marriage on a bad foot." "Alright..." You concede. Pointless in protesting when you're gonna go through with it anyway.
Tumblr media
The plane ride is long, though you spend about two thirds of it sleeping and the last bit, writing a portion of a project proposal you'd be sending your dad on behalf of the marketing team. If you just keep your head down and your mind busy, maybe you'll be able to float through the next few days without a hitch.
When you land, it's only B/f/n and Namjoon who are there to receive you. Typical. Though you'd been quite dry with B/f/n since during your time away, she is like a breath of fresh air and a sight for sore eyes and you can't help the big smile that spreads across your face when you see her. Of course, never one to hold a grudge, she embraces you tightly. "Wow, three weeks away and you'd swear Y/n was coming back from war," Namjoon jokes. B/f/n doesn't let go of you, just lazily hits him on his arm and continues hugging you. "Listen to me; you are going to be strong this week, okay? Don't think about anyone but yourself. I'll be right next to you the entire step of the way." Her words bring tears to your eyes and all you can do is struggle to nod, as she is holding you quite tightly.
When you get back to the hotel room, you drop everything and leap into bed, your heart content to just lay there... "Don't get too comfortable. Dinner's in...an hour and a half," She reminds you. You groan, face down into the mattress. You lazily roll over and stare up at the ceiling, "Maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll be reincarnated as a bed bug." "You are such a weirdo." "I'm serious...and all I'll have to do is live in people's mattresses and feast and poop...if I'm lucky, some weary traveler will transport me somewhere great, and that's how i'll live my life." "Just my luck, I'll end up being the traveler," She grumbles, causing you to laugh. "That's right, you'll never be rid of me."
Tumblr media
You practically drag your feet behind your parents and B/f/n. No part of you wants even to exist in the same vicinity as Jungkook right now, let alone eat dinner with him and his family. "You better fix your face," Your mom says over he shoulder, and though you're not able to fully see it, you know she's saying it through gritted teeth. "Ah, welcome back!" You hear Mr.Jeon's voice come from the direction just ahead, though your parents are completely blocking your view. You immediately 'fix your face', as your mom so lovingly put it, and stepped out from behind your dad to give the most fake smile of your life- though once the entire table is in view, you realize it's only his parents. No Jungkook in sight...and for some reason, your heart falls just a little bit, though you're sure your face doesn't give you away. "H-Hello, how are you both?" You give a small bow. "Oh, we're good. How was your trip? Did you get a lot done?" Mrs.Jeon asks, her smile warm and inviting. "Yes, I did. Thanks for asking." You glance at the empty chair and it seems as though she notices because then she says, "You'll have to excuse Jungkook tonight. He's at the office preparing for a presentation for Wednesday." "Oh, yes of course," You reach for your glass of water and look at B/f/n, who gives you a small smile. At least it'll be a calm dinner...
Tumblr media
Dinner was a breeze, the conversation flowing between your parents effortlessly; you mostly sat with your eyes on your plate, your spoon pushing around the little rice you had left. You couldn't help but let your mind wander to Jungkook...
"Earth. To. Y/n," B/f/n calls in a robotic voice, waving her hand in front of your face. "Mm?" "You okay?" She asks, putting her hair up in front of the bathroom mirror. "Oh, yeah. Sorry...I guess I spaced out." "Mhm...was it in Jungkook land again?" "What? Of course not," You try to lie but you know she ain't buying it. "Don't you think it's high time you guys talk? It's been weeks." "If I don't see that boy until the wedding day, I'll be perfectly fine." "Don't let the universe hear you," She warns, rubbing her face cream between her fingers. "Fuck the universe," You say arrogantly before turning around and leaving the bathroom.
Tumblr media
The next morning, your alarm goes off at around 6:30, eliciting a groan from you. You grab the pillow next to you and smash it against your face, not wanting to face the day. "It's tiiiiiiiiiiime," B/f/n sings at the highest possible pitch, mimicking Mariah Carrey's 'All I Want For Christmas'. "Shut up," You whine. She's usually not a morning person but as soon as your mom told her she was in charge of getting your hair and makeup done for the fitting, she insisted that you set an early alarm. Apparently, getting ready at 11AM for your 1PM fitting wasn't enough time because, as she so lovingly put it, she's "not a miracle worker".
"I don't even get why you guys are making such a big deal out of this. It's just a fitting- why do we need hair and makeup?" "You are probably the most annoying bride I've ever worked on," She rolls her eyes, patting the beauty blender lightly on your skin. "I'm the only bride you've ever worked on." "And you're already souring my experience. This is the first time you're trying on your dress- it needs to be a memorable and impactful experience." "Fine..." You cross your arms over your chest and roll your eyes, deciding it's better to give in than to keep fighting it. All you want to do is stay in bed and sulk.
Tumblr media
The only good to come out of the fitting today is the fact that you'll be seeing all your college friends; Han Soo-Hee, Shin Se-Kyung, Jisoo, and Jung Chae-yeon. You'd not seen them in a couple years and it'll be nice to catch up. Of course, the only downside-
"Lisa!" Mrs.Jeon says cheerfully, walking ahead of you, B/f/n, and your mom into the bridal shop. Your heart starts pounding and you can feel your blood boiling instantly. "Breathe," B/f/n whispers to you. "Mrs.Jeon!" Her voice is sickeningly sweet and you can tell by the hug she gives her that she's intent on laying it on thick. "I'm so happy you accepted to be a bridesmaid on such short notice," Mrs.Jeon turns to the side and extends her hand to motion to you, "This is Y/n." "Y/n, it's so nice to formally meet you," Lisa says with a low bow. "Same to you." You're such a liar. "I'm so excited to see you in your dress- I'm sure you'll make a beautiful bride." Her comment takes you by surprise and it takes you a moment to respond. "Th-thank you," You blush. "Of course- I'm sorry, how rude of me. What's your name?" B/f/n gives a polite smile, though you knew her enough to know that it was totally fake, "I'm B/f/n. Maid of honor." "Oh that's so sweet- You're so lucky. I won't ever be able to be a maid of honor unless my best friend finally gets married. You may have met her. Rose?"
Your mind flashes back to Rose's burning rage that day when she pulled up on Jin while you were out to dinner with Jungkook. "That sounds vaguely familiar."
"Yeah, well anyway- probably never gonna happen. Her boyfriend's a raging asshole. Anyway, are we expecting anyone else?" Lisa asks.
This whole thing feels strange. She seems way different from the impression she gave that day in the bathroom at Kook's party. You expected to be met with a sour attitude and cattiness, but she seems quite...bubbly.
"Yeah, our four other bridesmaids should be here shortly," B/f/n says, checking her watch.
Not a second goes by and the bell on the bridal shop door chimes, announcing the arrival of the rest of your court. "WHERE'S THE BRIDE!?" Se-Kyung exclaims, throwing her hands up in celebration.
"MY GIRLS!" You cheer, both you and B/f/n running to hug your guests. Instantly, you feel yourself relax. It doesn't matter how this fitting goes, you finally have your people around you.
After a few minutes, you were all lead by a sales associate to a back room with various mirrors and a pretty pink couch, the walls lined with dresses upon dresses. On the furthest wall, facing the couch, is a platform with three mirror, meant for you to be able to look at yourself from all angles...the thought makes you want to gag.
You're going into this fitting basically blind, not having been shown a single stitch of your dress until this moment. The sales lady leaves you in a room with it, hung high up to keep the long train from sagging on the floor. You stare at the grand gown for some time- so long that the sales lady comes back and knocks on the door, "You okay in there?" "Just-just a moment," You say, scrambling to get your clothes off and slip into the dress, holding it up at the bodice so as not to expose your boobs before they've laced you in.
You don't dare look in the dressing room mirror- seeing yourself might just make it too real and right now, you're trying desperately to convince yourself that this is all one big dream that you're gonna wake up from. Once the dress is secured, you pick the heavy skirt up and walk out to your court, each lady waiting for you with a glass of champagne in hand. A series of claps and cheers erupt and you feel your face burn. You stand with your back to the mirror, facing everyone. Your moms eyes are welling with tears, Mrs.Jeon has her hands covering her mouth, B/f/n and all of your bridesmaid's are fawning over you. "You look absolutely gorgeous," Mrs.Jeon says. "Doesn't she? God, Jungkook won't be able to keep his eyes off you," Se-Kyung smiles ear to ear. "Or his hands!" B/f/n adds, causing you to blush even harder. Even your mom and Mrs.Jeon can't hold back a laugh at her most inappropriate comment.
"So, what do you think?" Chae-Yeon asks. "About what?" You ask. "About the dress, you goof." "Oh- it's fine," You say, looking down and smoothing out the bottom. "Just fine? Did you even look in the mirror?" B/f/n asks. You respond with a long period of silence, pursing your lips. "Turn your ass around and look in that mirror," Jisoo reprimands you. "I did!" "Liar!" "Ugh, fine." You cross your arms tightly over your chest, shut your eyes tight and turn around. You brace yourself for a few seconds before finally, slowly opening your eyes.
You'd heard about this before- this moment. The moment where you see yourself for the first time in the dress. In everyone's stories, it's the second or the third dress, maybe even the tenth- but the moment will always come where you see yourself in that dress and simultaneously, see your future unfolding in your reflection. Suddenly, your eyes begin to well too. You can no longer pretend; this is real. Mom was right, you think, the hair and makeup did make a difference.
"It's the dress," Your mom says softly, pride in her voice. Everyone erupts in cheers again, though you hardly pay it any mind- your mind is completely and totally fixed on this feeling in your chest...
You want to see Jungkook.
Tumblr media
B/f/n helps put the dress safely in the trunk for you, leaving you standing there with Lisa, as the other girls had headed off to the restaurant to get your table and your mom and Mrs.Jeon went back to the hotel to start dealing with the preparations of the ballroom. Lisa had been quite warm and welcoming to everyone the entire fitting, and you began to question whether or not you'd imagined her conversation with Rose.
Could it have been that you misunderstood everything? You misread the situation? Did you fuck everything up by jumping to conclusions?
"Uhm- Hey Lisa, we're gonna be going out to dinner once we pull out of here...would you like to join us?" You ask, the words feeling strange as they come out of your mouth.
"Oh, that's so nice of you to ask- unfortunately I really have to go take care of some stuff at home. Rain check?" "Yes, of course. No worries...And hey, listen. Thanks again for agreeing to be part of my court." "Of course, it's not a problem at all," She opens her arms to you, a warm expression on her face as she goes in for a hug. You gladly return the gesture, though once she's pulled you in, she brings her lips really close to your ear, "Anything for Jungkoook."
Venom drips off of her every word, the air thick between you; and suddenly, it all makes sense. The uncharacteristically sweet smiles, the polite bows, the compliments...she's an actress, and this fitting was her stage. In fact, the entire Jeon family is a plot device for her performance. She doesn't want Jungkook...she wants to be adored.
This is why Jungkook doesn't believe me.
Before you're able to respond in any way, Lisa is letting you go, walking in the opposite direction toward her car.
Tumblr media
The rest of the day is a bit of a blur; so much to take in and so little to time. Dinner, drinks at the hotel bar, and now, more drinks at a pub a few blocks away. You decide to put Lisa out of your mind and just enjoy the company of your friends: drinks upon drinks are passed around, laughter and merriment fill the air- before you know it, your insides feel warm and fuzzy and your mind more free and uninhibited. "I'm gonna call him," You say, standing from your chair, a self-righteous expression on your face as you pound your chest once. "That's the best idea you've had all night," B/f/n says. "Call him!" Se-Kyung shouts. "Call him, call him, call him!" They all pound on the table, cheeks cherry red and hair disheveled- you were the sloppiest bunch anyone ever did see.
You take your phone out of your purse and punch in his number- having grown accustomed over the past few weeks at seeing it pop up on your screen, you'd memorized the number by heart. You can faintly hear it ringing but the music in the bar is so loud that you decide to stumble your way out to the parking lot. It continues to ring a few more times before he finally picks up.
"Hello?" Jungkook's voice is groggy, like he'd been sleeping. "Where were you at dinner?" You ask, cutting to the chase. "Y/n it's...it's 1AM. Where are you?" "Fuck you," You slur. "Fuck you too," He returns the same cold tone, though he doesn't hang up. "Fuck you more!" You hang up on him, mouth hanging open in disbelief at how rude he's being. Clearly, you're drunk. You can't hold what drunk people say against them. "Asshat," You grumble, returning to your friends.
About fifteen minutes go by and everyone is absolutely zombified, with B/f/n having tapped out five minutes prior, her head resting on the table. "I'm never drinking again..." Jisoo groans. "It'll be at least...twelve hours before I can stomach another drink," Se-Kyung adds. "Y/n," A familiar voice says behind you. You turn around and realize it's Namjoon. "'Joon?" You ask incredulously, "How'd you know we were here?" He chuckles, "It's my job to know. Remember?" He walks around to B/f/n and sweeps her hair out of her face. She's sound asleep. "I'm here to take you all home." "I could've gotten a car, you didn't have to do that-" "Jungkook sent me." You blink in surprise. Jungkook? "You're kinda hot," Chae-Yeon says, staring dreamily at him. "Thanks but I'm seeing someone," He says politely, gently scooping B/f/n up into his arms. "Everyone ready?"
Tumblr media
Thursday goes by quickly, with everyone scrambling to get everything ready for the wedding. Your mothers decided to hold the wedding at the other hotel location about thirty minutes away for a nice change of scenery. Decorations are being brought in, tables and chairs set up, tapestries are brought in and hung up all over the hall ceiling. It's all coming together quickly- a circus of workers directed by yours and Jungkook's mothers. You avoid thinking about the previous night's shenanigans, cringing at yourself for having sunk so low as to drunk dial him.
But you also can't stop thinking about the absolute lack of consideration- sending Namjoon instead of just getting you all himself? What a prick...not that you wanted to see him, but it's about common decency. Don't get someone else to do your job. Even if it is technically what Namjoon gets paid to do...
"Stop talking so much, I'm getting a headache," B/f/n says sarcastically, gently nudging you. You're snapped out of your thoughts, cheeks blushing slightly, "Sorry. Just out of it today." "I can see..." You both watch as flowers are placed inside of the tall vases at the center of each table. "Am I making a mistake?" You ask, not looking over at her. She doesn't respond for a few seconds and you begin to wonder if she even heard you. "Do you love him?" She asks. Your cheeks get hotter and hotter, embarrassed by her question. "Love? I- I barely know him..." You nervously twiddle your thumbs. It's true, you barely know him...but you can't help the way your heart flutters at the word: love. You'd never been in love before...but if you're being completely honest with yourself, you can't deny that this feeling within you is nothing like the crushes you've had in your youth. This is a heavy, sticky feeling- a painful yet exhilarating condition of the heart. Love...how could you dare to speak it out loud? "Only you can answer that," B/f/n says, referring to the initial question, "And once you do, the next question is...now that you've gotten to know him, could you see yourself going back to the way life was without him?" "B/f/n! Can you please help me with this? I can't decide if I want them to out the couple's table on the left or right side!" Mrs.Jeon calls out. "Bridesmaid duty calls," She says to you before jogging over to the far end of the ballroom to give her input.
Her question stays with you, like a heavy boulder on your shoulders. The truth is, you know you can't go back. Not now...not after all of this... You guess you have your answer.
Tumblr media
You toss and turn all night, your dreams plagued with nightmare scenarios of how it might go during the ceremony. One moment, Jungkook is saying 'I do', and then you somehow morph into Lisa before he can kiss you. In another moment, he's completely walking away and running out of the church, holding Lisa by the hand. It feels like the night only lasts as much as the blink of an eye before B/f/n is shaking you awake, her hair disheveled and eyes barely open, "Girl are you okay?" "Wh-what?" "You were like...whimpering in your sleep- and your alarm has been going off for like five minutes." You suddenly become aware of your very loud alarm. "Sorry," You say groggily, reaching over and turning off your alarm, "Just had a rough night." "I can imagine...you're probably feeling really nervous." "Yeah..." You sit up and slouch forward, your eyes locking onto the TV that's already turned on and fixed on the news channel. You mindlessly watch as clips play, one after another- and then you see an image of the Jeons' hotel. It then switches to a reporter who says, "June Company will soon be merging with L/N Co., which will open jobs throughout the country, as well as in Australia, the United States, and Japan."
"Looks like your merger is making headlines," B/f/n says, jaw practically on the floor. Your face is completely frozen and your heart is pounding. You feel as though you may have an enormous panic attack. You obviously know that the Jeons are kind of a big deal, but you didn't realize just how important this was all going to be. "Y/n?" She sees your expression and quickly turns off the television. "Let's just get you ready, yeah? Come on." She helps you out of bed and leads you to the bathroom. You're practically catatonic for the next hour while you brush your teeth and take a quick shower.
Tumblr media
You get your hair and makeup done at the other location, having been put up in a room that connects to the ballroom. Mirrors were brought in to aid in the court's preparation. Every few minutes, you look over at the dress that's hung up on the opposite wall from the collapsable vanity where you're sitting. You don't dare take it out of the garment bag for fear of messing it up. Your mind is still so full of thoughts, all shouting at you for individual attention. It's almost like you're on auto-pilot, the makeup artists asks you to tilt your head or suck in your cheeks, or puff out your lips and you do- though it doesn't register that you've been cooperating so well until those odd moments you look in the mirror and realize your face is almost done.
In fact, you're so out of it that you don't notice Lisa come in. Now, your bridesmaids lovingly picked out coordinated velour tracksuits; yours is black, theirs are pink. They even got one for Lisa, but apparently she didn't need it because her dress is already on and her makeup is already done. Of course, she looks beautiful; her dress fits her absolutely perfectly, the silk fabric laying beautifully on her hips, and the color compliments her skin tone so that she looks like a pretty little porcelain doll...but fuck her. "Hey, Y/n would you mind just coming out to do a run through of the walk?" Your mom asks, popping her head into the suite. You nod, standing up and dusting the setting powder off of yourself, all bridesmaids in tow, though at the last second before entering the ballroom, Lisa says, "I'll meet everyone in a few minutes, I just have to run to the restroom really quickly," to which no one responds of even gives a flying fuck about. Because again, fuck her.
You'd practiced the entrance yesterday with everyone except Jungkook who, of course, was in meetings all day as he had been all week. You're surprised he's even found time to marry you today. Right now, he and his groomsmen are all in another part of the hotel getting ready; you're only practicing with the bridesmaids. You all run through it about three times and then head back to the suite to wrap up getting ready. One by one, all your bridesmaids slip on their dresses and jewelry and head to the next room over to start recording their video diaries for when you put the wedding video together. You're the only one who has yet to put on your dress. You needed the moment to be private; a second to gather your thoughts. You close the door to the suite and then slowly walk over to the garment bag. "This is it..."
You take off your tracksuit and lay it neatly on a nearby chair, leaving yourself in only your pretty, white, lacey bra and delicate silk, white panties with a small bow at the front. B/f/n had insisted you wear them so you could feel beautiful through and through- you initially thought it was an unnecessary detail, though as she is about most things, B/f/n was absolutely right- you do feel beautiful. You gingerly pull down the zipper of the garment bag, revealing the big white gown. Just as beautiful as you remember it from the fitting. You take it off of the hanger and walk over to one of the mirrors leaned against the wall. You step into the gown and pull it up- of course, you'll need help lacing it in but you just want an intimate moment to look at yourself. You press it against your chest and look up at your reflection-
and then the blood drains from your face.
You feel your hands get stiff and ice cold, and you feel that familiar tightness in your chest.
The panic attack that could not come to fruition this morning has now returned with a vengeance, and you are doubled over, sturggling for oxygen.
Cuts. Cuts everywhere. All over the skirt of the dress. Deep, angry slashes. How did I not see them before? How did I miss them? Were they there when I got to the hotel after the fitting? No, it couldn't be- B/f/n put it in the trunk and then hung it up at our hotel room... when did this happen?
Tears stream down your face as you slump forward in the chair. It's drafty in this suite but you can't bring yourself to put the tracksuit back on, or even to move at all beyond the violent jerking of your shoulders with every sob. "Y/n, Y/n, are you okay!?" B/f/n runs over to you, having just finished her recording, "What happened!?" You can't even speak, you just point to the mound of fabric on the floor that once was your dress...that once was the dress. She picks it up off the ground and holds it up, her mouth immediately falling open in disbelief. She's just as confused as you are. "What- how even- This dress was in perfect condition when I brought it here. I checked," She says angrily, trying to rack her brain just like you had only moments ago. Your crying intensifies, a strong feeling of defeat washing over you.
"Oh, Y/n," Her face softens and she hugs you tightly. "I don't know what the hell I'm gonna do. That was the dress. That was the last shred of hope I had for this God-forsaken marriage. Now what? I have no dress, I haven't seen Jungkook once since I've been back. I have nothing left in me to give..." She lets you cry into her chest for a moment before pulling away, "Okay, we have a little less than an hour before the ceremony. Let me see what we can do." She runs out of the room and then you're alone again. Completely and utterly alone...
Tumblr media
About fifteen minutes go by and not a single person has entered the suite. You assume they're all trying to figure out what happened and how to help. Your cries have quieted down a bit but still have not ceased. You feel broken and you're tired of fighting it.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
You're snapped out of your thoughts, head lifting up and looking toward the door, "Come in," You say, your wavering voice just loud enough to be heard from the other side. The door opens slowly, and you expect to see B/f/n or maybe your mom, but instead, Jungkook walks in, his expression soft and solemn as he closes the door behind him.
"Hey, Y/n."
Tumblr media
A/N: Hope you all liked it! Plz comment and DM for suggestions on what you'd like to see happen next in the story; you might inspire me <3
Also, I am so honored that ppl would want me to tag them in the next part. To know anyone likes this series enough to keep up with it is so heartwarming. So, with that being said:

โ™งSome Mr. Osomatsu Headcanons Pt. 2!"โ™ง
Some more of these cause they're a blast to do~
Part. 1 Part. 2 Part. 3
~
โ€ข Out of all the brothers, Osomatsu, Jyushimatsu, and Karamatsu give the best hugs.
โ€ข Osomatsu because, as I mentioned before, this man has the potential to be genuinely nice and comforting when he actually tries, and the same applies to his hugs. When he is being genuine, his big brother energy also takes a massive spike. He's not the kind to act sappy or heartfelt, so he'll be running his mouth, throwing out teases and making jokes, but his hugs are very warm and full-bodied with just the right amount of squeeze.
"What, you done already? Nah, c'mere."
Is the type to hold on after the hug should have ended and fall backward, taking his huggie with him cause he thinks it's funny. But before that part, it's actually really nice!
โ€ข Jyushimatsu may be a little strange but he's undeniably a ball of joy as well and is the huggiest out of all the brothers. He's a pounce hugger too, so prepare to be jumped. Squeezes tightly and doesn't like to let go. Will koala cling to your torso or back and physically shimmie around your body to avoid being pulled off. You'll probably need help from one (or multiple) of the others to remove him, but it's still kinda sweet.
โ€ข Karamatsu likes to play Mr. Cool Guy but in reality, he's very nervous when it comes to physical affection. Offers hugs freely but gets flustered if someone takes his offer and wholeheartedly hugs him back. He'll try to keep playing it cool but has to try his hardest to hide the blush that will encompass his face. Kara lives for attention of any kind but in a much less shallow way than he may make it seem. He just wants to feel loved, so little things like that get to him.
His hugs are tight, firm, and very safe feeling. They also tend to linger for a while, so you may need to remind him to let go. He's one of the strongest of the brothers (besides Jyushimatsu, but he's a special case) so if he happens to get carried away, he might lift the person he's hugging off the ground for just a second.
His brothers rarely hug him, so when he finds someone that doesn't mind his hugs, he'll try to find any excuse to slip one into any interaction. For example:
"You dropped your hotdog? Truly a pity. Come, find solace in my arms!"
Or
"Y/n, it has been too long!"
"It's been like a week?"
"Far too long indeed! Let us commemorate our reunion with a grand embrace!"
โ€ข None of the brothers can cook very well, but Ichimatsu is probably the most capable out of all of them since he knows how to make a few simple things. He isn't nearly confident enough to let himself cook for or in front of other people, but he does so for himself sometimes when he's home alone.
โ€ข He actually started learning how because he saw someone make cat-shaped onigiri in a magazine once and had to try it himself. That's what he's best at, but he also knows how to make miso soup, okayu, and can put together a pretty cute bento box if he's feeling up to it. He also tries new recipes once in a while, provided they have a kitty-related twist that makes him want to put in the effort.
โ€ข It's not a lot, and certainly not all that impressive, but compared to his brothers it's a little something.
โ€ข I like the idea that Oso is the first of his brothers to actually get his driver's license. He doesn't have a car yet and won't anytime soon, but he puts in the time and passes his test with flying colors without much of a reason besides he just decided he wanted to do it.
โ€ข He keeps it a secret from his brothers and parents until he actually passes the exam and then brings his physical license home to show it off to no end.
โ€ข More than offended that he of all people would go ahead and do something so grown-up, Choromatsu and Karamatsu decide as the next oldest they need to as well. So this creates a domino effect, with Karamatsu deciding to take motorcycle lessons, much to the excruciation of his brothers, and Choromatsu desperately trying to catch up and get his driver's license so Oso can't hold it over him anymore.
โ€ขSurprising everyone, Karamatsu actually does manage to (just barely) pass his test and get his motorcycle license on his first try.
โ€ข Meanwhile, Choromatsu is still retrying and failing his driver's exam to this day. The poor guy is well studied and knows everything he needs to, but actually getting behind a wheel makes him so nervous that he inevitably messes up. So it looks like Oso's gonna be able to hold it over him for a while.
โ€ข The latter three are much less ambitious, since it's not like any of them even have a car to drive if they were to pass, and Totty says that their little brother privileges give them the right to be driven around by everyone else anyways.

Iโ€™d love a request where the reader is Bobbys daughter and dating Buck. Itโ€™s a hot day and the reader has gone to the firehouse to see everyone but she ends up feeling unwell because of the heat and Buck looks after her.
hello, love! ahh thank you so much for this request! and thanks to everyone who voted! it's my first time writing for Buck so I hope you like it! also, I'm not sure why, I swear I read somewhere that Bobby didn't know they were dating so that's kind of the course this took, so I hope that's okay! Warnings: reader faints because of the heat; I think thatโ€™s it, but always let me know if I missed anything Disclaimer: I donโ€™t own 9-1-1 ๐Ÿ˜Š gif isnโ€™t mineย ๐Ÿ˜
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Heatwave
Tumblr media
"Okay, how does this look?" you asked, placing the lasagna in the middle of the table. Buck had texted you that the team was on their way back so you needed to hurry up.
"For the third time, honey, yes. It looks good" Athena said as she brought the bread with her and you went over to finish the salad you were making. You had learned a thing or two from your father and you started to actually enjoy cooking. It brought the two of you together after you lost the rest of your family, and it usually helped calm you down, but not today. "Look, I know you're nervous about telling your dad about you and Buck, but you need to breathe and relax" she said, walking closer to you.
You had been seeing Buck for a long time now. At first, you didn't want to tell your dad, mostly because you weren't even sure if the two of you were serious. Then, it got serious quickly and the two of you agreed to tell your dad when you were both ready. So now, because the two of you wanted to move in together, you knew you had to tell him. So, here you were, cooking your father's favorite meal for lunch, and hoping to have your dad in a good mood for later tonight when you were going to finally tell him.
"I know, I know" you said to Athena, who had kindly volunteered to help you since it was her day off. "It's just... my dad has hated every single boyfriend I've had" you told her.
"Oh, I know. He's told me about all the insipid, idiot, good-for-nothings you've dated before" she said, making you widen your eyes at her. "His words not mine" she said, making you roll your eyes. "But he adores Buck, like his own son. I mean, they even went to a Bruce Springsteen concert together" she reminded you.
"Ugh, I know, nobody loves Springsteen as much as those two" you said, making Athena let out a chuckle. "Look, I know he loves Buck... as part of his team. I'm not sure if he's gonna love Buck as my boyfriend" you said, nervously.
"Of course he will. Because as much as he loves Buck, he loves you more than anything and anyone" she reminded you. "And he's going to see how happy he makes you" she smiled.
"You really think so?" you asked, smiling back.
"I really do" she nodded. It actually meant a lot to you what Athena thought too. You knew she didn't particularly like Buck at first, but she had mentioned to you how he's changed and how she sees that the two of you brought out the best in each other. "Looks like they're here" she said, when you saw the truck pulling into the station.
"Okay" you said, placing the salad on the table. "I think the bear claws are done" you said, wiping your hands on your apron, and went over to the oven.
"Really? You had to make his favorite dessert?" Athena said, rolling her eyes. "Aren't you trying a bit too hard?"
"Better safe than sorry" you smiled nervously.
"Hey, what's all this?" Hen asked, being the first one to get upstairs.
"Do I smell your dad's famous lasagna?" Chim was the next one to appear. "Please tell me I'm right" he smiled, seeing at the setup table.
"You are correct" you smiled.
"Oh, this is why you're my favorite Nash" he smiled.
"Hey! I heard that" you heard your father coming up. "This is a nice surprise" he smiled, looking at the two of you before he went over to his wife and gave her a kiss.
"Yeah-" Athena started before you interrupted her.
"It was Athena's idea" you quickly said. "I uh, just... tagged along to help with the cooking" you smiled as Buck and Eddie finally made it upstairs.
"Hey, little Nash" Eddie said, walking over to greet you. Aside from Athena, he was the only one who knew about the two of you. And Christopher.
"Well, I'm happy to see you" Bobby said, before walking over to you and kissing your head. "Both of you" he added. "This looks good, duck" he smiled as you rolled your eyes a little.
"Why is it that he calls you duck?" you heard Chimney ask when he was taking his seat.
"Why does he call you Chimney?" you smirked and he glared at you.
Your dad laughed and walked over to the table with Athena as he started telling Hen and Chim that he called you duck because you used to be a really grumpy kid and when you were a toddler, you sounded like Donald Duck whenever you argued with him about something.
"Hey" Buck said, walking closer to you as you walked to the oven. "How are you feeling?" he smiled.
"I'm... fine" you smiled wearily.
"You're a terrible liar" he chuckled.
"I know" you said, opening the oven and feeling the heat struck you. It was already extremely hot outside. This just made it ten times worse. "I'm just a little nervous" you said, getting back up, suddenly feeling dizzy, and making you drop the tray with bear claws a bit faster and louder than you intended on the counter, getting the attention of the four people on the table.
"Whoa" Buck said, worriedly, getting closer to you.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Eddie asked. "You're sweating a lot"
"Yeah, no I just... felt a bit light-headed" you said, placing your wrist on your forehead.
"Did you eat something today? Maybe you need to sit down" Buck said pulling you closer to him. "Look at me" he instructed.
"I'm fine, sweetheart-" you tried smiling before Buck saw your eyes roll over to the back of your head and you collapsed in front of him. He quickly wrapped his arms around your waist, preventing you from falling all the way to the ground.
"Bobby!" Buck yelled, even if Bobby was already rushing to you as Buck and Eddie carried you to the sofa.
"Chim! Hen! Get your bag!" Bobby ordered. "What happened?"
"I think it's the heat" Eddie said as Chimney came running back up with his bag, handing Hen what she needed.
"Did she eat anything at all today?" she questioned.
"Not while she was with me" Athena replied.
"She didn't have breakfast either" Buck said, feeling guilty. He was the main reason why you were late and didn't have breakfast.
"What? She didn't?" Bobby asked, confused. "Wait, how do you know that?"
"Um... she texted me?" Buck smiled, nervously as Eddie and Athena shared a look, thinking it was probably best to give everyone some space.
"You two... text each other?" Bobby asked as Chimney and Hen shared a different, confused look.
"Oh, I did not see this coming" Chim muttered to Hen.
"Seriously? You didn't?" she asked before going back to examining you.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
You slowly opened your eyes and realized you were at the 118 station and you had a cold cloth pressed against your forehead. You tried to sit up but Buck quickly ran over to you.
"Whoa, easy there, love" he said, sitting on the coffee table in front of you. "Hi" he smiled sweetly at you, offering you a bottle of water. "How are you feeling?"
"A bit dumb, to be honest" you chuckled, accepting the water and taking a sip. "W-what happened?"
"You fainted" he reminded you. "Sweetheart, why didn't you tell me you hadn't eaten today?"
"I'm sorry" you frowned. "I didn't think it would be a big deal. I didn't have time to eat this morning and, then I went to work, and then I started cooking and I lost track of time and, I guess the heat didn't help" you said shyly.
"No, it didn't" your dad said, walking over and sitting on the edge of the sofa. "How are you feeling duck?"
"A bit better" you said.
"Well, it's a good thing your boyfriend is always alert and quick on his feet" he said, casually.
"Yeah, he- wait, what did you say?" you froze, realizing what he'd just say. "Did I hit my head?" you asked Buck. "Did my dad just call you my boyfriend?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry, sweetheart" Buck smiled apologetically. "I know you had a whole thing planned tonight, but I let it slip that you didn't have breakfast today, and well... I kind of told him" he explained.
"Y-you did?" you asked, feeling a bit nauseous again. "Does he know we're moving in together?"
"What?!"
"He does now" Buck said with a tight-lipped smile.
"You're moving in together?" your dad asked.
"I uh-" you stuttered. "Y-yeah" you admitted. "W-we were going to tell you tonight at dinner" you insisted.
"Is that why you came to make my favorite lunch? So I'd be in a good mood?" he asked, knowing you too well.
"M-maybe?" you smiled. "A-are you mad?"
"No, honey. I'm not mad" he chuckled, pulling you closer and kissing your temple. "I don't love the fact that you hid it from me for so long" he added. "But I'm glad you're with someone who I know cares about you as much as I know Buck does" he smiled. "And, if I'm being honest, I kind of suspected it for a while" he said, surprising you.
"You did not" you glared at him.
"You both are terrible liars and I mean, you only make bear claws when you're giving me bad news" he smirked, making you roll your eyes.
"Wait, does that mean, I'm bad news?" Buck asked.
"What? N-no" you said unconvincingly. "I make them when I'm not sure how he will react" you insisted.
"Yeah" Bobby said. "To bad news" he repeated with a chuckle. I'm glad you're happy, duck" he told you.
"Thanks, dad" you smiled. "I really am" you told him.
"I'm gonna go get you something to eat, okay?" he said, getting up and kissing your head again. "Don't ever scare me like that again" he muttered before walking away.
"So, your dad knows about us" Buck smiled at you.
"Yeah, and it didn't go bad at all" you said, excitedly.
"Not bad at all? Sweetheart, do I need to remind you that you just fainted?"
"Well, yeah but... I mean aside from that" you pouted, making him smile at you before giving you a peck on the lips.
"You really scared me" he said, worriedly.
"I'm sorry, love" you insisted.
"You don't have to apologize" he said. "Especially since it was kind of my fault you didn't have breakfast" he said, blushing a little. "But now that we are going to live together, I will make sure you don't leave the house without eating first" he instructed, making you roll your eyes a little.
"Fine" you smiled before he leaned in for another kiss. "I love you" you told him.
"I love you too" he smiled.
The End

A dash of nutmeg...
Look I feel a bit like I'm throwing soup at a dart board and calling it analysis, but I have some thoughts about Aziraphale's magic words in episode 4, and it's going to kill me if I don't share.
The thing is, these words have been nagging at me since I heard them. They sounded familiar, and I've been trying to figure out why. Today, it finally clicked.
Banana. Fish. Gorilla.
Those initial three words are all key words from Crowley and Aziraphale's drunken conversation about Armageddon. It's right at the start of things, when Crowley convinces Aziraphale to help him stop the world from ending.
We'll start with the fish, because they come up first.
"The point I'm trying to make," [Crowley] said, brightening, "is the dolphins. That's my point." "Kind of fish," said Aziraphale.
Their entire exchange here is hilarious and iconic but I'll try to keep this to the point. After some banter about the difference between fish and mammals, Crowley argues that dolphins don't deserve to be caught in the crossfire when the kraken rises and the seas boil. Which conveniently brings us to:
"Same with gorillas. Whoops, they say, sky gone all red, stars crashing to ground, what they putting in the bananas these days?"
Banana. Fish. Gorilla. It got me curious, so I searched for other places these words show up in the book. There's nothing I think is really significant: a couple of things are described as banana flavoured, fish show up in rains that herald the impending doomsday, gorillas aren't ever mentioned again. If I'm on the right track at all, I think this part is here to signpost a connection between this string of words from the show and the specific moments in the book.
If that's true, it must be pointing to something. What's left? Shoe lace and nutmeg.
Shoe lace.
The word "shoelace" isn't actually in Good Omens. Neither is "shoe lace" with a space in between. There's a couple of unremarkable descriptions involving shoes, and one miraculously conjured lace handkerchief, and then - and then. Right at the very end of the story, we have Adam, grounded by his parents, being described as "a scruffy Napoleon with his laces trailing, exiled to a rose-trellissed Elba". It's tenuous. I could dismiss that as nothing. Except Adam's laces show up again, and it's the very last passage of the book.
If you want to imagine the future, imagine a boy and his dog and his friends. And a summer that never ends. And if you want to imagine the future, imagine a boot . . . no, imagine a sneaker, laces trailing, kicking a pebble; imagine a stick, to poke at interesting things, and throw for a dog that may or may not decide to retrieve it; imagine a tuneless whistle, pounding some luckless popular song into insensibility; imagine a figure, half angel, half devil, all human . . . Slouching hopefully towards Tadfield . . . . . . forever.
I'm not ready to say much about what I think the significance of this passage might be. But an allusion to the book's ending does feel significant, doesn't it?
The one thing I will say, for people who may not know, is that this passage is riffing on a line from Orwell's 1984. The line it's playing on is a lot darker: "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face โ€“ for ever." I think it's probably relevant that this is referencing a book about a totalitarian regime. I also think it's probably relevant that it's taking that reference and twisting it into something much sweeter, more optimistic and empowered.
I'm still thinking through all the connections and implications, though.
Nutmeg.
And that brings us to "nutmeg". I have to be honest, I wasn't hopeful. I didn't remember any references to it and if I were betting, I wouldn't have put money on it appearing in the book at all. But the word does show up, and it shows up exactly once. Crowley is reminiscing about a cocktail he had once, made out of fermented date-palms. It's part of a conversation with Aziraphale, where they discuss losing the Antichrist. And here's the really interesting part:
"You said it was him!" moaned Aziraphale, abstractedly picking the final lump of cream-cake from his lapel. He licked his fingers clean. "It was him," said Crowley. "I mean, I should know, shouldn't I?" "Then someone else must be interfering." "There isn't anyone else! There's just us, right? Good and Evil. One side or the other." He thumped the steering wheel. "You'll be amazed at the kind of things they can do to you, down there," he said. "I imagine they're very similar to the sort of things they can do to one up there," said Aziraphale. "Come off it. Your lot get ineffable mercy," said Crowley sourly. "Yes? Did you ever visit Gomorrah?" "Sure," said the demon. "There was this great little tavern where you could get these terrific fermented date-palm cocktails with nutmeg and crushed lemongrass-" "I meant afterwards." "Oh."
Book Aziraphale differs from his characterisation in the show in a few ways, and this is the big one. In the book, Aziraphale is much more cynical about his own side, and much more aware of heaven's flaws. Here, he's convincing Crowley that the threat heaven poses is just as serious as any threat from hell.
If I'm right about any of this, if these nonsense words mean anything at all, I think they are saying that heaven and hell are two sides of the same very nasty coin, and more to the point, that maybe Aziraphale is more aware of it than he seems.
I need to think about this more, still. I'm not sure if I really think this connection is something, and if it is, I'm still figuring out what sorts of conclusions we might draw from it. But if the script is trying to point us to these three sections of the book, maybe there's a deeper analysis to be had here.
I do think it's interesting that the last two words each only show up in one section of the book. It's not like I'm skipping around trying to decide which passage involving shoe laces is most relevant - it shows up twice, only in the last few pages of the book and only in relation to Adam (and in particular, humanising Adam. He's Napoleon in exile, but he's a kid with trailing laces. His future isn't a boot stamping on a human face, it's a sneaker with those same trailing laces - and a stick that his dog can choose whether or not to chase).
I could talk myself in circles on this point, so I guess I've got to open it up to the floor. Am I making something out of nothing with this? Or do you think there could be something here?

this is what it feels like
warning: sfw, fluff, comfort | seeing them after a long time apart
includes: Albedo, Childe, Diluc, Thoma, Zhongli, Xiao
character x gn reader |ย ย anthology | short read
Tumblr media
You could feel your heart, how it thrummed in your chest and fluttered slightly when you picked up the pace. The closer you got to your destination, the more painful the waiting became. You wanted to be there, wanted to see him with eyes you swore were growing cloudy and getting more challenging to keep clear.
You were ready, so you practically ran.
Tumblr media
Albedo
Sounds of whirring machines spilled into the hallway. They mingled with the swift, drumming pace of your footsteps. A voice, his voice, slipped through the cracks in the door and you pushed forward, ignoring the kind strangers who greeted you.
There was only one thing - one person - on your mind.
Albedo.
"It may be that a miscalculation occurred; I would recommend we review more closely the --" Alebeo paused mid-sentence and lifted his head from the bent-back notebook he was previously reviewing. The student who was sitting in the chair next to him saw you as soon as you stepped through the door. They glanced at Albedo and tried to hide their smile.
Albedo twisted and your eyes met.
"Hi," you said with a small wave. Panting, focused on the man you'd dreamed about seeing for days. Now that you were here, however, it was hard to move again. Was it appropriate for you to be here, had you interrupted something important?
You let your one-track mind get the better of you again.
Albedo let the notebook slide into the ready hands of his student. His gaze locked, taking all of you in.
You laughed, relieved, "I'm home," you professed with a smile and opened your arms as Albedo left his work behind to greet you with a wanting embrace.
--
Childe
You better return to me - I promise
The promise you made over a week ago swirled in your mind. You'd let the scene play out so much that it was starting to twist and distort into fallacies and imaginations untrue to the source. However, nothing dared warp the feeling of his lips when he pressed them to your cheek and whispered, 'Don't make me wait long.' Those recollections lived on in destitute moments just before bed and the bittersweet seconds of rising from it.
But, now. Now the boat was pulling into port and you could hardly contain your excitement.
Would he be there? Would he be the first thing you see when you docked?
You were desperate, hopeful, but most of all, you were tired of feeling lonely.
The dock appeared slowly. You scanned the sturdy boards for him and rushed to the other side of the bow to get another view. No matter how hard you looked, you couldn't find him. You jerked forward as the boat docked and wasted no time making it to the pier below.
With your bag slung over your shoulder, you ran into the thick of the crowd. Eyes scanning, head on a swivel as you searched for him. People glanced your way but kept on. One woman looked at you with knowing eyes - eyes that lamented, 'You're looking for your lover too, aren't you?'
You turned to look down the stone harbor but couldn't see him. Disheartened, you let your bag fall to your side.
Then, like the whistling wind of the sea, you heard your name. Snapping your head to the left, you saw a man standing at the top of the stone hill, chest heaving, shoulders rising and falling, and eyes zeroed in on you.
"Ajax!" You called back, dropping your bag where it was and rushing up the hill to meet him. He did the same, and as you ran toward each other, you crashed into him like a wave. Childe hoisted you in the air. The momentum carried the two of you toward the water, but he never let you go. "I've returned. As promised," you told him, tears bubbling up in your eyes so you hid your face against his shoulder.
"So you did," he replied, kissing the top of your head and tightening his hold on you as if his hands were making their own vows to never let you go again.

Diluc
It had been weeks since the two of you had seen each other. Weeks since you had woken up next to him or found him lost in thought in his study. Countless hours had gone by since you heard his voice or felt the warmth of his touch. You were desperate for it but also nervous to accept it again.
Distance was meant to make the heart grow stronger, right?
As you paced back and forth across the floor, you were starting to regret your decision to hide in the upper room of Angel's Share. Charle's assured you he'd send Diluc your way, but what if they got busy, what if Diluc realized he needed to walk back to the Winery? You should have gone to the estate instead of concocting some elaborate surprise - especially when you were terrible at them.
Shaking your head, you made for the door. Unable to keep the antsy tingling of your nerves from taking over, but the moment you grabbed the doorknob, heavy footfalls made you freeze and you were just fast enough to stumble back when the door swung open with immense force.
Your alarm was replaced by overflowing elation at the sight that greeted you. Diluc's hand gripped the doorknob, his eyes held pools of desperation as they looked at you, as they searched your face, pleading to reassure him that you were, in fact, not a dream.
"I'm home-" you started but he cut you off by pulling you into a suffocating hug. His body leaned into yours, his palm cupped the back of your head and his other gripped the back of your clothes. You returned the hug with just as much fervor.
Pulling back, you pressed your hands against his cheeks and found his lips like one finds a flicker of light in utter darkness. You heard the sound of the door slam shut but didn't care to pull away enough to look. Diluc's fingers tugged at your hair while he kissed you with famished lips.
"I hate when you leave," he professed when he let you finally catch your breath, his eyes heavy, lost in you.
"I'm not fond of it either," you admitted and let your fingers rest against his chin. "Did Charles tell you I was back?"
Diluc shook his head, his lips brushing over yours and placing several more heated kisses against them, "I heard you."
Furrowing your brows, you pulled away even though he tried to chase you, "Up here? That could have been anyone," you chuckled.
"No one else's footsteps sound like my dreams," he explained and you answered him with a trembling lip and a warm, forever, embrace.

Thoma
It had been nearly two weeks since you'd been near Thoma. Since you'd received the comfort he was so keen on giving. Since he reminded you of the qualities you forgot when he wasn't around. Since you could caress his face and have him touch yours.
Each night was more challenging. Sending letters was too slow. Hearing updates from others felt impersonal. You wanted to see him, wanted to hold him, wanted to hear him. So, you picked up the pace and apologized to the attendants you waved off so you wouldn't get distracted.
Your chest tightened the moment you saw him. Even when you tugged at your clothes to create space, it wasn't enough to alleviate the pressure building inside your ribcage. Your heart ached. Involuntary tears ran down your cheeks. Taking a step toward him, the wooden boards beneath you creaked and, though it was small, quiet, impossible to detect even for you, Thoma stopped what he was doing and turned toward the noise.
Confusion shifted to disbelief until realization set in and the pounding sound of his footsteps made their way toward you.
Thoma wrung his hands on the towel tucked into his pants so that when he made it to you and slid his arms under you to lift you into the air before letting you fall toward him, against him, in his arms that felt so much like home, he made sure his hands were clean and void of any stain that could tarnish you.
"I missed you," he proclaimed, one hand flush against the back of your head while the other kept you as close as it could.
"I missed you more," you admitted and held onto him with no intent of letting go.
--
Zhongli
You pressed a finger to your lips to hush the receptionist whose eyes lit up at the sight of you. "He's in his office," they whispered with a smile. You nodded and crept further into the parlor. The halls were coated in familiar scents. Scents you associated with the resigned archon who walked them every day.
When you got to the door, you lifted your hand to knock, hesitated, then let your knuckle rap against the door one, two, three times.
"Enter," the voice on the other side said, so you did. "I have yet to sign off on the procession request. The contract is of issue, which I will review with careful consideration ..." Zhongli explained, and you stifled a laugh.
He was turned away from you. His elegant chair turned to face the window. A steaming cup of tea had been left abandoned on his desk - a clear sign he was lost in thought.
When you were close enough, you slid your hands around his face to cover his eyes. Without missing a beat, Zhongli said your name, ruining the surprise.
"How did you know it was me?" you asked as he twisted in his chair to take your hands in his and hold them tenderly against his lips.
"I would recognize the sound of your footsteps even if time had taken all my senses," he professed as if it were a simple fact, as he kissed the tips of your fingers in adoration. When he looked at your face you were trying your best to keep your eyes upward to stop the tears that fell because of him.
Because of the love of him.
"I missed you dearly," he added, his thumb caressing your cheek to wipe away the warm tears.
"I missed you. So much," you mirrored and wrapped your arms around his shoulders even as he rose to his full height to draw you nearer to him.

Xiao
The marshland smelled just the way you remembered, the clinging warmth of it lingered on your skin. After being on the dry, salt-biting sea for so long you could feel yourself reacclimating to the climate.
It had been weeks since you last saw him.
You almost couldn't stand it.
The tower that was Wangshu Inn lingered in the distance but no matter how close you got to it, the further away it seemed. You were frustrated, anxious, ready to climb to the top and wrap your arms around the man who invaded your thoughts more often than you thought possible.
You imagined him, remembered the comfort of him, could recall the lingering presence of him - like something familiar was hovering in the edges of your view, but you could never quite place it. He was always there - or, at least, the intensity of your love for him felt that way.
"Almost there," you promised as you climbed one of the red bridges above the streams surrounding the marsh.
"Took you long enough," a voice answered, making you spin on your toes to see its owner.
Xiao stood at the bottom of the bridge, arms crossed, eyes falling to the ground while you stared at him in disbelief.
Was it really him, or was it another figment of your desperate imagination?
When his eyes met yours, you knew. You knew it was real, and so you ran to him. Xiao caught you like wind rushing through his hair, and you slid your fingers across his back to remind your hands what he felt like.
"Aren't you going to say it?" he asked, gruff and close as he pressed his forehead against your neck.
"Say wh--? Oh, sorry," you laughed, overwhelmed with love and joy, "I'm home."
"Welcome home."

hello, hello :) i like drama so... could i request a mean girl trying to flirt with hunting dogs and insulting their s/o?
I won't lie I've rewritten this like multiple times?? I don't know why this was so hard for me other than I hate conflict, so I struggled hard bro.
Scenario: Mean girl insulting their s/o while trying to flirt (Tecchou, Jouno)
Tecchou
Tumblr media
โ€œYou can do better, you know?โ€
Tecchou blinked at the girl in front of him, the one who was staring at him dead in the face with eyes that looked like a predator.
It was an unsettling gaze. He felt challenged, as if the two were in a cage, ready to throw down.
She didn't look like an assassin, but Tecchou met abilities that were far more dangerous than physical capabilities alone.
โ€œExcuse me?โ€
โ€You heard me. Ditch the cabbage patch bitch, come here and get a barbie. I think you're worth that.โ€œ
The woman leaned in closer, her long hair almost brushing against his arms.
Tecchou took a step back, regaining his personal space. He breathed as he felt his sword tied to his body, certainly within reach.
She was a civilian, but she could very well be a threat.
โ€I don't know what cabbage patches have to do with my girlfriend.โ€
The woman squinted at him, almost in offense. She was the one offering him a doll in the first place, like some sort of man in a white van offering kids candy.
It was a strange situation.
โ€œI'm saying she's ugly. What? You don't think you deserve someone hot like me?โ€
Oh.
She was almost aggresive with her words, her long acrylic nail nearly jabbing at his chest - this was aggression, but it was pointed towards someone else.
It was targeted towards you. That's very crass, isn't it?
โ€I don't think you're attractive.โ€œ
Tecchou had a hard line to toe. He didn't want to deal with a hysterical woman, but he also knew that you most certainly heard this conversation, listening from somewhere off in the park while he had gone to order you both lunch.
He hated to imagine the look on your face from hearing those words. You were rather sensitive compared to him when it came to these things, and he hated to imagine you crying.
It was one of the worst things that he had ever seen, that and wasting food. Maybe his bones poking out from underneath his skin were a close second, but he could handle physical pain pretty well. He didn't really know how to handle you crying, and it was damn near as painful.
โ€Excuse me?โ€œ
Tecchou had to take another step back, the woman not understanding the concept of personal space and respecting boundaries. It was agitating, watching as she tried to encroach onto his personal boundaries again, her hand reaching towards his chest area.
Slapping her hand away, he glared at her, looking between her and the offending hand between them.
โ€œDon't touch me.โ€
There was an anger building up inside of him, watching the woman as she stared at him in confusion. What the hell did she have to be confused about? She was the one who had insulted his girlfriend.
"Who the hell do you think you are-"
"Don't insult people you don't know."
He didn't bother to look back at the woman, instead rushing to get his food.
He and his girlfriend's food.
Because that's who really mattered. Not some woman who didn't even know how personal boundaries worked. Or notice the fact that he was carrying a lethal weapon.
Tecchou wasn't the kind of man to harm a civilian. But once and a while he was reminded of why he was different from them.
Jouno
Tumblr media
"You know, for a blind guy you're really cute."
Jouno hated having his downtime disturbed, and of course, when he tried to be a good boyfriend and get a package for you, he was interrupted by a woman who he did not care to hear from.
Certainly not his girlfriend, nor Teruko, nor anyone he respected.
The only distress he smelled was in her pants, and frankly, he wanted no part. He just wanted to go home and bring you back whatever stupid shirt you ordered.
"My girlfriend says that to me all the time."
He emphasized the words, hoping she would feel embarrassed and leave him alone. There were others in the mailroom, surely she would take the hint and know not to hit on a man wearing fire-red Hello Kitty pajamas.
At least, that's what you had told him. He was against wearing tacky outfits, but you liked to match and he wasn't going to say no when you were thoughtful enough to buy something so considerate to his senses.
Maybe they looked stupid. He didn't care to see them, anyway, since he only wore them at home. And in the mailroom.
Where he was currently being hit on.
"Well, do you think she appreciates it?"
"What?"
Already starting to walk away from the woman, he found himself being followed by her into the stairwell. He would rather take an elevator, but being stuck in a locked room with her seemed rather unpleasant at the moment.
"You know..."
Not caring for her life, the woman grabbed his arm, hugging it close to her chest. He cringed as he tried to push her off, feeling as she pressed her entire body weight against him.
It felt like someone had thrown a piano at him.
"I think I can show you a way better time than she can. Just stand here-"
Cringing, Jouno pushed her off, listening as she stumbled against the railings.
"You're not deaf, are you? I'm in a relationship, psycho."
He dusted himself off, trying to clean away the dirty particles that was her mere existence on his clothes. At this rate, he was going to have to bleach them.
"With an ugly bitch! I know you can't see it, but-"
"I haven't seen your face but I already know a pig was your mother."
Smirking, he felt for the fire alarm on the wall, pulling it.
Jouno knew he was just out of line for the sprinklers, and it was satisfying to listen as the woman shouted as the cold water shocked her system. It was worth the screaming in his ears - he knew that she most likely looked like shit now.
With the woman off of him, he took the dryest path up the stairs, smiling as he listened to her screams of indignation.
Possibly humiliation. He sure hoped so, for being unable to listen to a simple rejection.
"I hope you have your phone on you. I'm not leaving the door open for you, ugly bitch."
He waved goodbye to her with your package, smirking as she banged on the now closed doors of the stairwell.
The fire department can deal with her. That wasn't his problem.
There was a package he had to deliver to his lovely girlfriend, who he knew would be sitting in a shared apartment wondering why the fire alarm went off.
Tumblr media
Honestly I struggled mad hard with this one. So much so it took me nearly a year to write (haha...haaaaaaa). But also hope you enjoyed it cause damn...I've never been in a mean girls scenario so i had to make it up

โ€œI'm not going.โ€ You replied, your voice firm and your eyes fixated on the math book that sat on the library's desk, trying to avoid the gaze-that you knew you couldn't resist-of the boy sitting in front of you. You heard him sigh as his doe eyes desperately tried to meet yours.
โ€œBut everyone is goingโ€ฆyou can't miss it.โ€ Kyle replied with his soft voice.
โ€œI've never gone to any of those partiesโ€ฆwhy do you want me to go to this one so badly?โ€ You spoke, with a noticeable hint of frustration in your voice.
โ€œBecause it's the end of the semesterโ€ฆsomething to celebrate. Plus, it's gonna be epic.โ€ He said with a toothy smile plastered on his face.
โ€œNo, thanks. You know I don't roll with those frat boys.โ€ You rolled your eyes, your words coming out harsh and spiteful.
โ€œI'm a frat boy.โ€ He said, raising an eyebrow, clearly confused by your statement.
โ€œYea- but you'reโ€ฆdifferent.โ€ You sighed.
It was true. He was indeed different from the frat boys he was friends with. You and Kyle met in Junior year of high school. You were paired up by your physics teacher, who suggested you could tutor Kyle, that at the time had terrible grades. You two clicked instantly, he was fun and outgoing, and you enjoyed spending time with him. Kyle had grown to be incredibly thankful for your help, in fact, he insisted that you were the one who made him passionate about physics, the subject that he used to despise and that now was his main department in college. Although he could seem like the usual asshole frat boy, Kyle was sweet and caring. You knew it, and no one couldโ€™ve made you change your mind on that. He was simply a sweetheart.
โ€œListen, I know my mates may seem rude or not well-behavedโ€ฆbut trust me, as a leader, I established some rules for them. They wonโ€™t act crazy, I promise.โ€ His kind voice brought you back from your thoughts. You sighed, thinking about it.
โ€œBrennanโ€™s hosting the party in his summer mansionโ€ฆitโ€™s next to the beach- itโ€™s so cool, I swear. I-Iโ€™ll take you there! I can pick you up and take you homeโ€ฆโ€ He added, wiggling his eyebrows.
โ€œPlease?โ€ He said in an adorable voice, his puppy eyes looking hopeful into yours.
You sighed, you didnโ€™t wanna go, but it was utterly impossible to say no to him.
โ€œFine.โ€
โ€งหšโ‚Šโ€ขโ”ˆโ”ˆโ”ˆโ”ˆเญจเญงโ”ˆโ”ˆโ”ˆโ”ˆโ€ขโ€งโ‚ŠหšโŠน
You were touching up your makeup. You were ready for the โ€œbig nightโ€ Kyle was so excited about. You decided to wear something a bit more revealing, a black minidress, because-okay, you didnโ€™t wanna go- but you couldnโ€™t be annoyed and unfashionable all at once.
While taking a final look in the mirror, you heard a knock on your door. You grabbed your bag and opened the door to see Kyle-in his usual frat sweater-smiling at you. He looked at you up and down, scaring you slightly. What if he didnโ€™t like the dress or how it looked on you?
Fortunately, all your concerns faded once you saw his smile widening.
โ€œWoahโ€ฆyou look beautiful. Seriouslyโ€ฆyouโ€™re stunning.โ€ He said, he couldnโ€™t keep his eyes off you, he wasnโ€™t used to seeing you like this.
You felt your cheeks heat up at the compliments.
โ€œThank youโ€ฆโ€ You gave him an awkward smile and bit your lip.
โ€œShall we get going?โ€ You suggested, to which he nodded. He took your hand and helped you step down the porch. Kyle led you to his car, and opened the door for you with a cute grin.
The ride was calm, you chit-chatted here and there about random stuff, and you swore you saw him staring at your body a few times. After 15 minutes or so, you eventually arrived at the party. Kyle was right, the mansion was beautiful and it faced the sea. You could see lights and music blasting out of the house. He gave you an excited grin and helped you out of the car, walking with you inside the house. It was overflowing with people laughing, playing games and having fun. As much as it seems hard to believe, you didnโ€™t know anyone of those many people. They had familiar faces, sure, but you couldnโ€™t consider them your actual friends. You sighed and nervously looked at Kyle who, on the other side, was flashing smiles to all his fellow frat brothers and friends. You noticed how comfortable he was in his habitat, and how you envied him for that. He introduced you to many people-whom you couldnโ€™t even remember the names of-that obviously didnโ€™t care much about getting to know you, since they even couldโ€™ve sworn you did not go to that college. You were invisible even when the attention was on you, and Kyle clearly didnโ€™t catch that. So when he was dragged by his mates to some kind of game, he told you with a chuckle and a rushed tone
โ€œI-Iโ€™ll be right back! Chat with the girls, theyโ€™re fun!โ€
Fun. Right. You didn't mean to sound like an antisocial bitch, but they were everything but fun. You saw them from afar just taking pictures of each other-to show on Instagram how much fun they were pretending to have having-or teasing each other about their crushes. You felt bored, so you sat on a chair, sipping a cup of-what you hoped was-punch and waited for Kyle. Time passed, and he didnโ€™t show up, so you got up and started searching for him. It didnโ€™t take you much to find him. Kyle was on the karaoke stage, singing โ€œRosannaโ€ by Toto.
โ€œMeetcha all the way! Nananaaaaahโ€ฆโ€ He โ€œsingedโ€ while laughing with his mates.
You were conflicted on what to do now. You didnโ€™t want to be a bummer by clinging to him all night, but you were truly bored and felt lonely. So, you did what you believed was best for everyone, you grabbed your stuff and left. The moment you stepped outside, you were met by an unfamiliar feeling of peace, the view surprising you for its beauty and for being soโ€ฆempty. It was quiet, the only sound that could be heard were the waves splashing against the sand, no people around. You smiled and made your way to the pier nearby. You sat on it and took your shoes off, allowing your feet to sink in the water.
You didnโ€™t know how much time had passed, but you were brought back to reality when you felt Kyle's voice behind you.
โ€œHere you are! I searched for you everywhere!โ€ He was breathing fast, you believed he had been running while seeking for you.
โ€œI thought I left you a message?โ€ You tilted your head.
โ€œOhโ€ฆ Sorry. I canโ€™t find my phone. Why are you all alone here? The whole fun is inside!โ€ He replied with a giant boyish smile.
โ€œI like it better here. Itโ€™s boring inside.โ€ You turned your face to look at the sea again.
โ€œWhat? How can you call it boring? There are plenty of games! And people inside-โ€ you cut him off before he could finish his sentence.
โ€œKyle, I hate to break it to you, but Iโ€™m not popular like you. The people inside couldnโ€™t care less about me. I feel less lonely here than in that crowded house.โ€
He looked at you confused.
โ€œAw, cโ€™monโ€ฆdonโ€™t be like this. Theyโ€™re nice people, you just have to make an effort to try to meet them, and Iโ€™m sure youโ€™ll have fun.โ€ You didnโ€™t know why those words started a fire in you.
โ€œTheyโ€™re not my friends, Kyle. I canโ€™t stand those people, I donโ€™t get along with them. And trust me, Iโ€™ve tried to be social and friendly, but you may have to consider the idea that not everyone is like you. Youโ€™re easygoing and social, you're a freaking frat boy for fuckโ€™s sake. Itโ€™s easy for you to say those things.โ€
He looked at you, mouth agape at your sudden outburst.
โ€œโ€ฆwhy didnโ€™t you just tell me?โ€ He looked at you like a sad puppy for bringing you somewhere that made you uncomfortable.
โ€œAnd be more of a bummer? No, thanks. They already hate me, I don't wanna be a party pooper as well.โ€ You crossed your arms.
He sat next to you on the pier and his fingers gently grazed your jaw to make you look at him.
โ€œYouโ€™re not a bummer to meโ€ฆa-and Iโ€™m sorry about thatโ€ฆ I shouldnโ€™t have left you alone. Sorry.โ€
You wanted to be mad at him, truly, but those cute brown eyes melted your heart in every way possible. You bit your lip as you admired him lovingly. He was so caring and sweet, how did you manage to get this lucky?
โ€œI didnโ€™t wanna make you uncomfortable, I- thatโ€™s the last thing Iโ€™d ever want. You know I care about youโ€ฆ I canโ€™t stand you being mad at me. Please, forgive me?โ€
You felt your heart tighten at those words. You gave him a slight nod as your eyes travelled down his lips. You wanted to kiss him so badly, and he probably caught onto that, since he slowly leaned in to meet your lips in a sweet kiss. He pulled away slightly, mumbling against your lips.
โ€œWas that okay?โ€ You nodded, and he leaned in again, kissing you once more. This time he deepened the kiss, letting his tongue slip in your mouth and softly swirling it around yours. You let out a breath at how right that felt and how sweet he was being. You pulled him slightly closer and moved your hand to rest on his neck and caress the skin of it. After a bit, you moved your lips to peck his jaw a few times before trailing them down on his neck. Your lips worked sweetly on his skin at first, earning a few sighs from him. As the tension grew, you started sucking his neck, leaving red marks. He groaned and grabbed your waist, you subtly moved your hand down to massage the bulge from his pants. He let out a tiny gasp, and you felt him stiffen, not in a good way. You looked up at him with a confused expression.
โ€œI-Iโ€™m sorryโ€ฆplease keep goingโ€ฆโ€ He said with a nervous smile.
โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong? Did you not like that? Itโ€™s okay if you donโ€™t want toโ€ฆโ€ You gave him a comprehensive look.
โ€œNo! I like thatโ€ฆ I swear. Justโ€ฆbad memories.โ€
โ€œDo you wanna talk about itโ€ฆ?โ€
โ€œNo, I just wanna feel good now.โ€
You nodded and gave him a gentle peck on his lips before gently undoing his zipper. You ran your fingers over the visible shape of his dick through his underwear, earning a groan from him. You looked at him for consent before gently pulling his boxers down. You blushed as you saw him so vulnerable for the first time. Your fingers wrapped around his shaft, stroking him slowly. He let out a breathy moan.
โ€œG-godโ€ฆdonโ€™t stopโ€ฆโ€
You smiled and started progressively speeding up. After a few minutes, you heard his moans grow louder, and you felt his strong hand gripping your wrist.
โ€œIโ€ฆwanna do it. Is that okay?โ€
You nodded, and he sat up to gently remove your dress and everything underneath. He was stunned by your body, staring at you as if you were the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. He helped you lay down, with a massive gentleness, as if you were capable of breaking if handled too roughly. He hovered on top of you, caressing your face as he lined up your entrance with his dick.
โ€œThis okay?โ€ He muttered under his breath, to which you answered with a nod. He gently pushed into you, allowing you to adjust to the new feeling. He groaned when he pushed himself all the way in. He held your hand sweetly.
โ€œCan I start moving?โ€
โ€œMhmโ€ฆโ€
He slowly started thrusting in you, earning moans from you both. He gripped your hand tighter as he felt how your walls clenched around him. When he felt like you were ready, he started going faster, gripping your hand tightly and kissing you repeatedly through the whole thing. You could've sworn you were seeing stars when he started hitting your G-spot with his tip. Soon enough, your moans got louder and you felt yourself coming on his dick. He tried his best to contain his moans and as soon as you finished he pulled out to come on your tummy. He collapsed onto you, pecking your face repeatedly.
โ€œI love youโ€ฆโ€ He mumbled.
After some time had passed, he got up and cleaned you with the salty water, giggling like a teen boy receiving his first kiss. When he helped you gain your-and his-decency again, he got up, throwing an arm around you and walking happily towards his car.

Band Member Bakugo Corners You in the Back Alley
Pairing: Band member!Bakugo Katsuki x Fem!Reader
Tags: very suggestive, teasing, post performance, chance meeting, kissing (forced), being searched, groping, mention of cnc, Reader being pinned, dom!Bakugo
A/N: Boy bands are hot okay? They just are, its like, a law of the universe or something.
Tumblr media
Honestly you don't even know why you followed the band's lead singer, maybe because you wanted to make your friend happy, maybe because you caught him smirking at you while he sang, maybe it was because of all the rumors you heard about him, but you snuck to the back
Bakugo knew he was being followed by someone, a real cutie too, just his luck
"Hey! Brat! What's the big idea huh? You sneaking back here, following me. You want an autograph or some shit? I come back here to unwind after a performance, not be followed by a crazy fan." His voice was just as booming and loud as it was during the song, if not louder because he was getting right in your face right now
It did look a little weird, you imagine he's had many girls follow him like this but you weren't one of them, you weren't even a fan of his, "Not a fan? You here with a friend then? Haha, and you ditched them to follow the bad band boy. What's the matter? Wanted to see if the rumors are true?" He walked up to you, backing you up against the cold wall of the alley
With him being this close you could see how well built he was, all those muscles on display now that his jacket was off, his abs clearly outlined under the black tank top
"Now that I have a real good look at you, yeah, you look like my type. Wanna be my next conquest babygirl? Not here though, despite what you heard I don't fuck my fans behind the stage, I have some class. Although by the way you're looking right now I'm guessing you're exactly the kind of girl that would love to be taken quick and rough." One of his hand trailed up your thigh, making you shiver under his rough, practiced fingers
The slap you have him was unexpected, for both of you, echoing though the alley
"Ah. You've got some guts after all. Guess you're not a complete pushover." Bakugo's hand is back on your thigh like nothing happened, his face leaning in close to yours
Instead of a moan you find your mouth covered with his, and even more surprising is the way your body reacts, legs shaking, thighs clamping shut, trapping his hand in between them
"Yeah, don't let me. Fight me. Squirm, come on, tell me to stop." He feels you go stiff as a board under him, an actual scared sob falling from your mouth this time, "Hey, hey, I'm not a psychopath you know. Ever heard of cnc? That's the kinda shit I'm into sweetheart. Come on, if you don't wanna play, tell me your safeword."
Any word would have done the trick but instead you moaned his name, "Good girl. I knew you wanted it. I've done this so many times, I know a bottom slut when I see one. Hands up and legs apart for me babygirl, I need to make sure you're not recording this."
You were starting to think that maybe Bakugo has some kind of magic voice because you were ready to do anything he said if only he kept looking at you like this, "Such an obedient little thing." You moaned in appreciation when his hands roamed your body, from your thighs, up your skirt, then palming at your hips and up to your breasts, thumbs rolling over the stiff peaks, "No bra? You really did want to get fucked in the back alley like a slut." No, you just used the excuse that it was very hot today, which it was
Sadly before Bakugo could see if you were hiding anything underneath he heard the other band stop playing, which meant his break was close to over, which meant he had t stop
"Looks like this is all we have time for babygirl. But my friends and I are staying at the hotel two blocks away. If you wanna see where this goes, feel free to find me after the concert. And... bring a camera this time." As he pushes away he steals another kiss, his tongue forcing moan after moan from you before he leaves you there to catch your breath, his time on stage calling

Wrecked (Part 2)
Tumblr media
Pairing: Alpha Frank Castle x Omega Reader, Alpha Billy Russo x Omega Reader
Trigger Warnings: References to infertility, smut
Summary:ย When Frank Castle found his way to your small town bar, you thought you had finally found your Alpha despite being a "wrecked omega" but when his best friend, Billy Russo, blows through town, your world tilts on its axis. You thought you found your happy ending but was it just more wreckage for your life?
A/N: Thank you to my beta reader and hype princess, @whisperlullaby
Wrecked Masterlist
Tumblr media
Thursday night ended up being busier than usual with a large group coming in to celebrateโ€ฆ something. You never quite caught the reason. You were so busy tending the bar that you rarely looked up to see faces. It was nice to see the tip jar nearly overflowing towards the end of the night.ย 
You were pulling drafts for a couple of regulars when the door flew open and a grinning Cecily walked in as if she was a triumphant warrior returning from battle. You laugh and announce loudly, โ€œBatten down the hatches! Hurricane Cecily is blowing through town!โ€
โ€œHey!โ€ Cecily laughs as she hugs you, โ€œThe place looks great! How are you?โ€
โ€œIโ€™m great. Iโ€™m really good. Looking forward to hearing more about your adventures.โ€
โ€œYes, but for now, I need a drink!โ€ Cecily drags you to the bar.ย 
โ€œLet me guessโ€ฆ a blue motorcycle?โ€ You smirk.ย 
โ€œYou know me so well,โ€ Cecily grins.
โ€œHow was your trip?โ€ You smile as you make her drink.
โ€œFabulous! Saw the sights, made some friends, and had some good times. Pissed my dad off to all hell and back because I refused the match he arranged,โ€ she giggles.
โ€œHe should know better by now,โ€ you laugh. Cecilyโ€™s father had won the genetic lottery when he, a beta, and her mother, also a beta, produced an Omega offspring. He had hopes of marrying her off to make connections and strengthen the family standing. What he hadn't planned on was her strong will and refusal to marry until she fell in love. It was something you envied about her and probably one of the things that had drawn the two of you together. She was an Omega that a family centered their hopes on which she refused to comply with and you were the broken Omega who had disappointed your family with your inability to comply.ย 
โ€œNo matter their designation, men are all the same. Hard headed and yet oblivious,โ€ Cecily rolls her eyes.
โ€œCan't argue with that. I-โ€
"Oh, Jesus. Here we go," Frank's raspy voice interrupts.ย 
"Hey Frankie," Cecily teases.ย 
โ€œWelcome back. What trouble are you planning to get into?โ€ Frank asks as he takes the stool next to her.
โ€œAll the fun kind,โ€ she grins.ย 
โ€œOh, Cec, Frank's best friend is coming to town soon. You'll have to meet him. I have a hunch you two will be hilarious together,โ€ you giggle as Frank narrows his eyes at you.ย 
โ€œDon't give her any ideas. Those two would tear apart the town together,โ€ Frank turns to Cecily, โ€œAnd if you let him, your bed, too.โ€
โ€œWell, I'm certain I can show him a good time while he's here," Cecily says slyly.ย 
"Heard from him yet?" You ask.
"Yep," Frank says with a withering glance at Cecily. "He'll be here tomorrow. Leaving Sunday night or Monday."
"I can't wait to meet him," you wink at Frank.ย 
Cecily gives him a wicked smile, "Your best friend must be so interesting. Tell me about him."
Frank looks up at the ceiling as if praying for help but, knowing Cecily won't give up easily, he gives a few details, "He's an Alpha. Owns a security company. Real smooth with the 'megas and isn't the kind anyone can pin down. Just your type."
"What are you trying to say, Frank?" Cecily narrows her eyes.ย 
"Nothin'," Frank gives a shit eating grin.ย 
"Mm-hm," Cecily sips her drink.ย 
"Okay, you two, enough. I've got the room ready for him and a bottle of booze waiting," you say as a fresh group comes through the front door, "Play nice while I deal with the newcomers."
You walked away unworried about the two. Despite the way they ribbed each other, they actually liked one another. Cecily held respect for the man who had seen the gem that is her best friend and Frank was grateful for the unwavering support she showed you. So, while they always had harmless barbs to lob at each other, there was a mutual respect shared.ย 
Occasionally as you poured drinks and served, you would glance over to see them conversing companionably. In one such moment though, your stomach dropped a bit seeing Cecily's hand on his knee as she leaned in to whisper in his ear. You shook the feeling away, knowing she would never do anything untoward, and relaxed even more when Frank laughed while shaking his head. She was probably making a comment she didn't want overheard. You berated yourself for being so insecure. Frank was a good man and, even if he did choose to leave you for an Omega without your hindrances, he would never hurt you in that way. He would tell you... or he would just disappear, which was one of your biggest fears. One day, you would wake up alone and every trace of your life together would be gone.ย 
Just the thought was devastating. You had never expected him to stay this long and now you were spoiled by the presence of an Alpha in your life. You shake the negative thoughts away. Frank is your Alpha and he is going to mate you. But even that thought came with doubts. Your mind wouldn't let you believe that he would really mate you. He had said it to comfort you. He hadn't really meant it. He wouldn't tie himself to a wrecked Omega for life. No Alpha would.ย 
"Hey! Can I get another one?" A voice pulls you out of your melancholy thoughts.ย 
"You got it," you smile at the man and pour. The night is busy for a Thursday but you manage to make it back over to Frank and Cecily after a while.ย 
"Frank has been filling me in on his friend. I can't wait to meet him," Cecily smiles.ย 
"Well then, he's given you more information than he's given me," you laugh with a wink at Frank.ย 
"That's not true. I've told you stories about Bill," Frank laughs.ย 
"I had pull teeth just for you to tell me his last name!" You assert.ย 
"That's highly personal information," Frank smirks.ย 
"What is his last name?" Cecily asks.ย 
"Now see what you've started!" Frank exclaims. You stick your tongue out at him and laugh as his face drops. "Oh, very mature," Frank grouses.
"I'm sure your thoughts were when I did it," you tease him, leaning over the bar to whisper the words.ย 
"You're gonna be using it tonight," Frank groans out and then grabs you by the back of the neck to lay a kiss on you. His tongue plunders your mouth before he releases you with a smirk. You knew you were in for it when you got home and you couldnโ€™t wait.ย 
โ€œUgh, now Iโ€™m looking even more forward to this friend of yours coming. Maybe I can interest him in a little PDA,โ€ Cecily pouts. โ€œIโ€™m heading out. See ya tomorrow.โ€
โ€œNight,โ€ you and Frank say in unison.ย 
โ€œDo you want me to stay?โ€ Frank asks.ย 
โ€œNo, itโ€™s okay. Head to the cabin and rest. Iโ€™ll see you in a bit,โ€ you reassure him.ย 
โ€œAlright. Be careful,โ€ Frank gives a backwards wave as he heads for the door.ย 
The cabin. You always called it that or the house, never home. Part of you was scared he would correct you if you did; the other part worried it would scare him away. It was a precarious place that you stayed mentally with Frank. A fine line you balanced between loving his presence and fearing his absence. Would you ever feel confident in his commitment?
Billy coming had to mean something. Frank wouldnโ€™t introduce you to his best friend, the closest thing he had to family, if he didnโ€™t have intentions of staying. Maybe it was because you felt like Frank always had his eye on the door, waiting for the moment he would have to leave or for his past to catch up to him. How much did you even really know about his past? Maybe meeting Billy would give you more insight into him.ย 
When the bar closed a couple of hours later, your bouncer, Jordan, walked you to your car. A precaution he insisted on since the incident with the drunken Alpha. You wondered at times if Frank had asked him (or threatened his life) to ensure you got to your car safely. He really was sweet in his gruff way.ย 
By the time you made it to the cabin, the windows were dark. The porchlight and a small lamp just inside the front door were on but the rest of the house was dark and quiet. You smile to yourself, remembering Frank offering to stay until closing. Obviously, you had made the right decision to send him home since he was already asleep. He worked hard and deserved the rest.ย 
You quietly make your way to the bathroom and quickly wash up. You peek out the door at him and a sliver of light falls over his body. His arms were curled behind his head, his bare chest rising and falling with slow breaths, and between his thick thighs his heavy cock laid. You lick your lips and feel a surge of disappointment that heโ€™s not awake but then a wicked thought crosses your mind. He never shies from wakingย  you up by fucking youโ€ฆ maybe he wouldnโ€™t mind the same treatment. After all, he had said you'd be putting your tongue to work when you got home and you didn't want to make a liar out of him.
Shedding your clothing, you make your way to the bed. The sliver of light from the bathroom still lays over him. When he first came to your house, he would wake at every noise or touch but over the months, he had relaxed and was actually a fairly deep sleeper. Leaning over him, you lick a stripe from tip to base. His cock jumps and he stirs but his eyes donโ€™t open. You repeat the action bringing another small response from him. Taking him into your mouth, you work your way down his thick cock inch by inch, your hand wrapping around what you canโ€™t fit. Frank makes a sexy groan as he flexes towards you, his eyes slowly open as you watch. He grabs your head and moves you slowly up and down.ย 
โ€œFuck, thisโ€™s the hottest way to be woken up,โ€ he growls. โ€œCouldnโ€™t wait until the morning for this cock, huh, babe? Had to have it in you one way or the other?โ€ย 
You moan your agreement while hollowing your cheeks. Frankโ€™s deep growling moans are making you wet and you squeeze your thighs together to relieve the pressure.ย 
โ€œGoddamn, I can smell you. Getting wet from sucking this cock. Get up here. Cโ€™mon,โ€ Frank uses his grip to pull you away from his cock and then up to straddle him. You immediately position him at your entrance and sink down, biting your lip to hold in your moan. โ€œWhatโ€™d I tell you about that?โ€ Frank pulls your lip from your teeth.ย 
โ€œDonโ€™t,โ€ you whisper.ย 
โ€œI wanna hear every sound,โ€ he insists. โ€œNow, you wanted this cock so bad, letโ€™s see what you do with it.โ€ His smirk relays the challenge as he lays back, folding his hands behind his head.ย 
Never one to back down from such a challenge, you knew you had to make this good. You worked your hips to get every last inch of his thick cock inside of you. He was so thick that each drag of his cock was a direct hit to your g spot but he was in so deep there was a bite of pain when he hit your cervix. You ignored it as you rode him and eventually it lessened to a mere whisper of discomfort. Putting your hands on his chest, you leaned a little more forward to grind your clit against him and let out a long moan as the new angle hit even more pleasurably.ย 
โ€œThatโ€™s what I like to hear,โ€ Frank groans and then flexes up into you.ย 
โ€œOh! Fuck,โ€ you whimper. You move more quickly, squeezing him as you barrel yourself towards orgasm. Not worried anymore about living up to his challenge, that first spark had alighted in your belly and you chased it.ย 
Frank ran his calloused fingertips over your nipples, no longer content to be a mere observer. He squeezed and feathered over them while watching your face. His hips came up to meet yours and your mouth dropped open to let out a small cry. He repeated the motion until he saw that sweet look pass over your face. The one that told him you were too far gone to turn back and he held himself back from coming with you. He wasnโ€™t ready to be done yet.ย 
โ€œIโ€™m coming,โ€ you cried as the waves of pleasure took over. Your body spasms around him as you ride out the orgasm.ย 
โ€œAtta, girl. Squeezing my cock so tight. Fuck,โ€ Frank watches as you fall apart on top of him. When your orgasm had run its course, you stopped for a moment to catch your breath but it didnโ€™t last more than a few seconds when a smack landed on your ass and Frankโ€™s gruff voice said, โ€œWe ainโ€™t done yet, โ€˜mega. You wanted this cock so bad, you woke me from a dead sleep. Now you gotta finish what you started. Move that ass.โ€ย 
The shit-eating grin on his face made you want to be just a little defiant. You pull off of him and he immediately protests, โ€œWhere do you think you're going, โ€˜mega?โ€ย 
Pushing him back down on the bed, you lean in to give him a small but potent kiss. โ€œTrust me, Alpha,โ€ you give him a seductive look before turning around and straddling him again in reverse. You work his cock inside of you again and then look over your shoulder, โ€œYou wanted to see me move that assโ€ฆโ€
You bounce on top of him, being sure to give him a full view of your ass cheeks as you fuck him. Frank loved your ass and was always grabbing, slapping, or finding some other way to get his hands on it. Somehow, you had never gotten around to this particular position with him and you could tell right away it wouldnโ€™t be the last time. His hands shot out immediately to grope you, a smack landing only a few seconds later.ย 
โ€œFuck, yeah,โ€ Frank growled, his hands never stilling as he watched you fuck him. He was mesmerized by the jiggle of your cheeks with each motion you made while seeing his cock splitting you open. He sucked his thumb into his mouth, wetting it before pressing it to your tight little hole. He rubbed back and forth, teasing just the tip against your ring of muscle, as you rode him harder and harder.ย 
โ€œOh, fuck, Alpha. Itโ€™s so good,โ€ you whined. The angle was hitting your g spot and you could feel yourself building again.ย 
โ€œThatโ€™s right,โ€ Frank growls, landing another smack to your ass, โ€œGood, little โ€˜mega. Just need this Alphaโ€™s fat cock splitting you open, huh?โ€
โ€œYes!โ€ Is the only word you can manage at this point. You were tiring but the pull of another orgasm and Frankโ€™s words were enough to keep you going. You were dripping from his praise.
โ€œFuck!โ€ Frank cries out before grabbing your hips and slamming up into you forcefully. He repeats the motion over and over again and you canโ€™t hold in your scream when you come. Frankโ€™s loud grunts as he releases inside makes you clench around him. He flexes a few more times while holding you in place against him. When he had calmed, he pulled out and then positioned you to lay next to him. โ€œThanks for the wake up call,โ€ he chuckles in your ear.ย 
โ€œMy pleasure,โ€ you laugh. โ€œI think Iโ€™ve always known the answer to the question of whether youโ€™re a boobs or butt man but I think tonight solidified it.โ€
โ€œAss man, all the way,โ€ Frankโ€™s laugh rumbles through his chest.ย 
โ€œShocking,โ€ you tease.
โ€œMm-hm,โ€ comes out quietly.ย 
You glance over your shoulder at him and see heโ€™s already drifting back to sleep. You smile to yourself and listen for his breathing to even out before slipping out of the bed to clean up. Glancing back at Frank from the door, you shake your head at his ability to be fucking the life out of you one minute and then practically asleep the next. โ€œI love you,โ€ you whisper to his sleeping form, knowing youโ€™d probably never hear those words from him.ย 
โ€“
The next night, Friday, was busy as usual. Frank had sent a text that a water main break had delayed him and heโ€™d be late making it to the bar. It made you a little nervous that you might meet Billy without him here but you try to brush it off and keep up with the crowd. Especially since your other bartender called out. You were glad Cecily had made an early appearance and you set her to work behind the bar with you. She was great at helping out in a pinch and genuinely enjoyed working the bar, as the tip jar showed. Her flirtation skills were on point as you watched her flip her hair and wink at a patron. She knew how to play them like a fiddle.ย 
She looked gorgeous. Her short, wavy hair fell over her forehead attractively, giving a peekaboo effect that was coquettish. Tight black jeans, boots, and a one shoulder green tank hugged her curves as she twirled a glass in her hand before pulling the tap. You smiled as your eyes followed her for a few moments and she sent you a wink when she caught your stare.ย 
You were in a lull when the smell hit you, something dark and woodsy and undeniably Alpha. You turned to find a stranger sitting at the end of your bar with his eye on you. His incredibly dark eyes seemed to bore holes right through you. He was handsome, lean but muscular, dark hair brushed back from his forehead in an undercut, and casual clothes that seemed tailor fit. He was dreamy for lack of a better word. Making your way over, you smile at the newcomer, โ€œWell, hello there, stranger. What can I get for you?โ€
โ€œWhiskey, neat,โ€ the man says as he eyes you.ย 
โ€œAny-โ€
โ€œTop shelf,โ€ he interrupts your question.ย 
Raising an eyebrow at him, you smirk, โ€œIโ€™m afraid this barโ€™s version of top shelf is Johnny Walker. You strike me as more of a Lagavulin man.โ€
His face cracks a smile that had probably dropped more than a few pairs of panties, โ€œYouโ€™re good, but donโ€™t worry, Iโ€™ll stomach the Johnny Walker just fine.โ€
โ€œYou got it, chief,โ€ you turn to pour the drink. Setting it in front of him, you lean on the bar, โ€œWhat brings you to town?โ€
โ€œVisiting a friend,โ€ he says as he glances over at Cecily as she puts on a show while making drinks.ย 
Following his line of vision, you grin, โ€œSheโ€™s something, isnโ€™t she?โ€
โ€œYeah. Is she the owner?โ€ย 
โ€œMmm, excuse me,โ€ you are distracted by another patron motioning for a refill. You quickly pour the drink and a few others before making it back to him. Pouring him a second drink, you breath in his scent covertly, โ€œAc-โ€
โ€œSo, do you ever take a customer home?โ€ He gives you a smoldering look.
โ€œDo you always interrupt people?โ€ You counter.ย 
โ€œOnly when going after something I want,โ€ his eyes take a lazy path down to your cleavage before flicking back up to your eyes.ย You lean in closer to him, lowering your voice conspiratorially you say, โ€œNot really but just occasionally someone tall, dark, and handsome blows through and I find I just canโ€™t resist.โ€ His eyes darken as he studies you and you could read his thoughts as clearly as if he had spoken them aloud. โ€œOh, and to answer your earlier question, no, Iโ€™m the ownerโ€ฆ Billy. Welcome to town.โ€

Miguel O'Hara is acting odd when you go to speak with him about the nature of the Web of Life and Destiny and having a future despite his past.
This is my first time publishing a fic here so I hope y'all like it :) leave me some critiques and comments!
GN reader, SFW, minor acts of aggression, so much angst
______
"Mr. O'Hara?"
You walked cautiously into his office as if on tightrope, ready to leave as quickly as possible if necessary.
"What is it?"ย 
The room was unusually dark, orange glow from the screens high up the only indicator of his existence. He muttered something to Lyla and she appeared in front of you, materializing from your watch. She whispered to you conspiratorially.ย 
"He's in a mood again, y/n."
"I heard that." He echoed.
"I'll leave you two to it." She winked and fizzled out of vision.
You stood for a moment, watching the arch of his back sway as he worked. Should you wait?
"You can come up hereโ€ฆ" You complied and shot some web to the platform, landing quietly behind him. "I'm still in the middle of something but I need a break anyways."ย 
He shifted to face you. His eyes had darker than usual lines under them.ย 
You had visited him alone a few times before, and each time he treated you much friendlier than expected. Whenever you were in a group meeting, he was always brash and sometimes aggressive. Much unlike now. He was quiet and patient for you. Maybe it was like that for some of the others when they met him privately. You hadn't asked around. But you were still curious.
"I was wondering if you had time to talk for a bit?"ย 
"Sure." He folded his arms and leaned back.
"Wellโ€ฆ I've been thinking about the multiple dimensions and canon."
"You wouldn't be the only one. What about it?"
"If we have to follow our stories out in our own worlds, what does that mean for here? I'm sure it wasn't planned out that we'd all meet."
He stayed silent.
"So do those same rules apply here?"
His eyes flicked back to you.
"What do you- of course they still apply."
"So it's just canon for all of us to be in your dimension?"
"Probably not originally. But the Great Web was spun that way."
"Just like it was spun to punish you?"
He looked at you incredulously.ย 
"You don't know what I did."
"I know enough that it isn't fair that you're trying to clean this all up by yourself."
"I'm not doing this alone."
"Then stop acting like it." You said it so quick you let out a gasp as if it got past against your will. Which it kind of had. You never spoke to him like that. You met his gaze with wide eyes.
"Okay then." He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Tell me, y/n, what do you want me to act like? You want me to be ignorant to the possibilities of all our dimensions' destruction?"
"No, Iโ€ฆ"
"Cause I've already seen worlds ripped apart, childrenโ€ฆ children screaming, people dying. I can't let it keep happening." His tone raised and hitched painfully.
You took in a breath.
"And what happens once you fix it? Are you just going to wait patiently for the next accident and not make a new life for yourself?"
"I already found a life for myself and it didn't work. I don't deserve another chance." He turned away from you and gripped the desk so hard you swore the metal creaked.
"And who decides that?" You took a step towards him.
His shoulders hunched, head dipped, quivering with frustration.
"Miguelโ€ฆ"
He moved so fast you had blinked and found claws hovering at your eye line. You looked at his face, not even scared enough to have flinched, and saw red staring back at you. Words hung from your parted lips. He had almost attacked you. So why had he stopped?
He huffed and swung his arm back at the desk. He slumped in defeat, keeping his claws stuck in the metal.
"You should leave."ย 
But you didn't. For the same reason he hadn't hurt you. Instead, you lowered a hand to his broad shoulder.ย 
"We still have choices to make. No matter what the web says." Your breath shook at the end. He didn't move. You stood in silence for a while. With no response, and having made your point, you decided to leave. Before your hand could pull away, he grabbed your wrist.ย 
"How? Why are you like this? Even after seeing the darkest sides of humanityโ€ฆ you still show kindness. What's wrong with you?" He looked up only enough for you to see his eyes were back to an orange hue. You met his gaze steadily.
"If I don't, who will?" You sadly chuckled. "Afterall, it's all part of being a spider-person, y'know? Staying strong, getting back up when no one else canโ€ฆ"
You couldn't know how much he wanted to say sorry. There's no way he'd be able to put into words how deep his regret had changed him. So he deflected.
"You called me Miguel this time, y/n." He reluctantly let go of your wrist.
"Oh. Oh! I uhโ€ฆ didn't overstep any formalitiesโ€ฆ I'm sor-"
"It's okay. You can call me Miguel." He stood and pulled his fingers from the desk and tried to brush the shredded metal off. That was unsuccessful, so he just tilted his hips to cover it from your sight. "I'll uh, have to tell Lyla to get someone to fix thatโ€ฆ" He stared at you, feeling like a fool.ย 
"I wish I could help you with that." You rubbed your arm, pulling at the suit.
"You already have helped." He caught himself when you stared back. "I mean with the other stuff. You are helpful. I'm mumbling." He rubbed the back of his hair and let out a sigh. "I'm so so sorryโ€ฆ"ย 
"I know."ย 
Words hung in the air and the bizarre nature of your visit shook your inhibitions.
"So you uh, talk with everyone else in private this way?" You chuckled.
His eyes grew wide.
"What way?" Before you could say anything. "No of course I do, yeahโ€ฆ"ย 
"No?"
"Did I say no? I don't think I said noโ€ฆ"
"You did."
"Well I don't let just anyone get away with the stuff you pulled, that's for sure." He smirked and instantly regretted it.
"Oh."
"I mean. Ugh. Just don't mention that to anyone. I'm not going soft."
"Oh of course notโ€ฆ"
You looked at the floor smiling in thought. He hadn't really given you the answers you wanted after all.ย 
"Why did you ask about what I'd do after all this is done?" That threw you off.
"Well uh someone's got to ask youโ€ฆ make sure you have someone to look forward to."
"Someone?" Your face flushed.
"Something! I meant something!" He raised an eyebrow.ย 
"Well I'm open to suggestions then, I suppose. Whoโ€ฆ I mean, what, should I look forward to?" He teased.
"It could be someone you look forward to spending time with. Or just any kind of thing at all really." You backed up towards the edge of the platform. You were digging your grave with each word. "Uh, I should go nowโ€ฆ"ย 
"I look forward to talking with you again then, y/nโ€ฆ hopefully with less of me making a fool of myself." You squeaked at his tone and facial expression.ย 
"Yeah, uh, of course!" He was teasing but alsoโ€ฆ was he flirting with you, or was he just so hot that it made everything he said with a smile sound flirty? You couldn't manage an answer, so you quickly turned and fled from that awkward interaction. He watched as you ran from the room.
"Lyla."
"What was that about? Did you really need to ruin another desk?"
"Lyla, focus, does y/n have feelings for me?"ย 
She just laughed.

No longer locked upon the land but free on the rolling waves
You and Buggy come face to face with himself from the past, and while you're fully accepting that this is your husband as a child, Buggy doesn't want to accept it.
Rating: PG-13ish, but just due to some swearing.
Warning: Upset kid, upset husband. Reader is way too nice, doesn't necessarily take husband's feelings into account as well.
A/N: A combined request. I did a few versions of this story before feeling like it hit the marks I was wanting to hit. Also, I'm just trying to vibe off what I've seen of Kid Buggy. I'm no expert. I'd protect that kid with my life. He's so adorable. I also like the trope of "Meeting your self from another time" and "gets turned back into kid-self". This is the former, and I know shit about time travel but I just kind of made something up. Also, kelpies. Are they in One Piece? I honestly don't know but I love kelpies and needed an excuse to mention them.
Title comes from "Sailing Song" by S.J. Tucker.

Tumblr media
Chapter One
You would have thought you drank the pub dry the night before and were still drunk with what you were seeing in front of you. Except you very much didnโ€™t drink. You stayed back on the ship, wanting a quiet night while the rest of the crew and captain went to drink the pub dry. You were perfectly sober, no hangover in sight, but you really werenโ€™t sure what you were staring at.
Blue hair, red nose, and a scowl you knew all too well was in front of you, clutching something in his little hands while looking you up and down. โ€œWhat?!โ€
โ€œIโ€ฆ donโ€™t know.โ€ Which was true, you didnโ€™t know. The kid in front of you looked every bit like the captain who was currently sleeping back on the ship, having managed to find his way home without falling off the docks and into the water to drown(this time). He never mentioned having a kid, ever, and considering how long you knew the captain and your relationship with him, and guessing the kidโ€™s age, you would have been having a very serious talk about infidelity and why keeping your love child a secret? Seriously? wasnโ€™t good for relationships.ย 
โ€œWhy are you staring at me?!โ€ The kid snapped. โ€œDonโ€™t stare at me!โ€
โ€œSorry!โ€ You smiled and knelt down in front of him. โ€œYou just look so much like someone I know, I was confused. I promise I wasnโ€™t staring.โ€
The kid was on guard, tense, and looked ready to bolt, but you were curious. He just looked so much like Buggy that he had to be an offspring or some kind of relative, but the scary thing to you was how much he really looked like Buggy; he had kept some photos of his childhood onboard the Oro Jackson, and you knew what he looked like as a kid. He would show them to you on nights when he was drunk and reminiscing about the good olโ€™ days, singing shanties and drinking heavily. Last night was one of those nights before he passed out asleep in bed.ย 
โ€œWhatโ€™s your name?โ€ You finally asked. The kid didnโ€™t seem sure about telling you, but he must have felt brave because he straightened up and smirked at you.
โ€œIโ€™m Buggy!โ€ He told you, puffing his chest out proudly. โ€œIโ€™m an apprentice under Captain Roger, yโ€™know, and Iโ€™m one of the best already!โ€
Oh.
Oh shit.
Yea, no, something weird was going on. Why was there a kid who looked like Buggy, had the same name, and was talking about Captain Roger like he was still alive? Was this an elaborate make believe game the kid was playing, or were you staring into the eyes of your husbandโ€™s childhood self?
Weirdly enough, the latter made more sense to you. You heard of this happening, stories from sailors and pirates alike, but the stories were overheard at the bar after too much alcohol was consumed. Stories of children appearing for several days on a ship, like ghosts from a distant past, only to disappear again without a trace, but sometimes it happened the other way around, with the storytellers insisting that they met themselves as a child in the past, got to relive some memories, good and bad, before coming home again.ย 
โ€œYea?โ€ You grinned. โ€œThatโ€™s impressive, so whereโ€™s your crew? Your ship?โ€
The smirk vanished and he deflated a bit, looking around with the smallest bit of worry. โ€œI donโ€™t know. I was in front of them and there was some kind of flash of light, andโ€ฆ I donโ€™t know where I am.โ€
โ€œOh, well, want me to help you look for them?โ€ You asked, knowing all too well that his crew was nowhere around, he was not where he thought he was, but you didnโ€™t want him getting into any trouble (which you knew was difficult because as an adult he managed to get himself into enough trouble). โ€œIf we donโ€™t find them, you can stay with me. Iโ€™ll keep you safe.โ€
โ€œI-I donโ€™t need to be kept safe!โ€ He snapped. โ€œIโ€™m tough, okay? I can take care of myself!โ€ย 
You made sure not to laugh, but it was hard not too. He was so cute as a kid that saying those things with such passion and intensity just made him even more adorable. Instead, you nodded, agreeing with him as you held your hand out to him to take.
โ€œWell, how about something to eat? Iโ€™m just finishing up a supply run for my ship.โ€ You said. โ€œIโ€™m happy to make you something before we find your crew.โ€
He looked at your hand, looked at you, then back at your hand before hesitantly taking it. Whatever he held in his hand he put in his pocket, making you wonder what he stole before coming here. You decided not to test the waters yet, he was feisty, proud, and if you treated him like a kid then he wouldnโ€™t be very happy. You needed to treat him like the apprentice that he is, proud, determined, and passionate. Once his hand was in yours, you gave it a gentle squeeze and smiled at him as you started walking back to the docks.
โ€œI have fresh apples and peanut butter, if youโ€™d like that as a snack.โ€ You said, eyeing him with a grin as his face lit up. That was the same snack youโ€™d promise the captain whenever you wanted something from him. It wasnโ€™t fancy by any means, just a simple snack, but you kept the peanut butter hidden from him so he never knew where to find it. The way the kidโ€™s face lit up told you all you needed to know that this really was Buggy as a kid.
Oh, it was about to get fun on the ship.
~
โ€œ-and then I stole it!โ€ Buggy exclaimed with a laugh, holding up the pendant for you to see. He had just finished telling you of his latest act of piracy, stealing some necklace from a vendor on the streets. You had fed him, given him something to drink, and you couldnโ€™t help but walk over to him once he finished talking to wipe some of the food off his face with a dish towel. He was caught off guard and made a face at you when you did that.
โ€œPirates with food on their face scare no one.โ€ You chuckled as you slung the towel over your shoulder before clearing the dishes in front of him. โ€œAnd then what happened, Buggy?โ€
He fell silent, brow furrowed as he thought of your question. What did happen? He took off running, met up with the crew, and then a flash of light and he bumped into you-
โ€œBuggy?โ€ You tapped on the table in front of him, bringing him out of his thoughts. โ€œYou okay, sweetie?โ€
โ€œYea, yea.โ€ He mumbled as he looked down at the pendant in his hand. โ€œNext thing that happened was I ran into you.โ€
He quite literally did. You had just stepped out of a shop when he walked right into you, and you had been in shock of seeing him that you weren't bothered that a kid was yelling at you about being in the way.
โ€œOh!โ€ You nodded and went to refill his glass. โ€œWell, you can stay with me until we find your crew, okay?โ€
โ€œAre you a pirate?โ€ He asked. โ€œI'm on a pirate ship, but you don't seem like a pirate.โ€
You laughed softly at that, shaking your head. โ€œI'm not, no. I don't do piracy, just help with the upkeep of the ship. My husband, however, is a pirate.โ€
โ€œWhat?!โ€ย 
โ€œYea, he-โ€
โ€œIt's too loud in here.โ€ Someone grumbled from the doorway. You both turned to look; the kidโ€™s eyes widened and you grinned. And there he was, groggy, a little hungover, and obviously needing food and coffee if he was going to start the day. You went over to him and led him to the table, helping him sit down before you started on the coffee. โ€œTime?โ€
โ€œLunch time.โ€ You chuckled. โ€œThat's what time it is, honey.โ€
He glared at you, oblivious to the guest that was staring at him with wide eyes and an open mouth. Buggy was a little hungover, having had his fair share of alcohol the night before. Normally you had the coffee ready for him before he woke up, so he was confused and unhappy that it wasn't readily available for him at that moment.
โ€œIt's too early.โ€ He grumbled, rubbing his eyes. โ€œWhat's for lunch?โ€
โ€œWake up first.โ€ You brought him a cup and kissed the top of his head. โ€œBut I need you to look across the table before you drink that coffee, honey.โ€
Buggy looked up at you, eyes squinting in confusion. You took hold of his head and turned it in the direction you wanted him to look, and a few seconds later he pushed back from the table while you still held his head. Swearing, you popped it back onto his neck.
โ€œW-What is going on?โ€ He shrieked upon seeing the kid. Thankfully Kid Buggy remained seated, but you could see the confused look on his face. The two were staring at each other, mirror images except for the age difference. Before you could explain, your husband got up, marched over to the kid, and picked him up by the back of the shirt, carrying him out of the kitchen.
โ€œBuggy-โ€ You went after him, not sure what was happening.
โ€œHey! Put me down!โ€ The kid shrieked, fists swinging and legs kicking.ย 
Buggy didn't respond and before you could stop him, he tossed the kid over the side of the ship and into the water. You couldn't believe he did that. You rushed to the side to look over, relieved you saw the kid treading water. So this was definitely a young Buggy, pre-Devil Fruit, otherwise you would have thrown your husband overboard after the kid. You threw a rope down to him while your husband went back to the kitchen, rambling on about curses and bad omens.ย 
You wanted to know what the hell that was about.
~
โ€œIโ€™m fine!โ€ The kid insisted as you wrapped his hair up in a towel. His clothes were soaked and you did not have anything that would fit him, so he was currently wearing an old shirt of Buggyโ€™s until his clothes dried. They were draped over a chair in the bedroom, the pendant he stole earlier sitting on your shared dressing table.ย 
โ€œI donโ€™t need you getting sick, sweetie.โ€ You sighed as you used another towel to make sure his face was clean. You were mindful of the nose, touching the towel to his face except there. โ€œIโ€™m sorry he did that.โ€
โ€œWhy did he do that?โ€ He grumbled as he crossed his arms, glaring up at you.
โ€œBecause pirates are superstitious fools.โ€ You told him. โ€œAndโ€ฆ seeing you scared him I guess. I donโ€™t know, Iโ€™m going to talk to him.โ€ Carefully, you unwrapped his hair, making note that he needed to have it brushed to keep from tangling too much. You got up and set the towels aside before grabbing your hairbrush. โ€œBuggy, Iโ€™m going to tell you something and I donโ€™t want you to get scared, okay?โ€
โ€œI donโ€™t get scared!โ€ He insisted. โ€œNot like that guy! Iโ€™m braver than him!โ€
โ€œOkay, hereโ€™s the thing about my husband-โ€
โ€œDonโ€™t tell him anything!โ€ Your husband suddenly appeared in the doorway, glaring at the two of you. โ€œWhere did you find him? Who is he?!โ€
You werenโ€™t bothered by his mood, but you wanted to make sure the kid felt safe. Without a word you moved between the two, keeping Kid Buggy behind you as you crossed your arms.
โ€œWe ran into each other, Buggy.โ€ You told him firmly. โ€œHe got separated from his crew.โ€
โ€œCrew?!โ€ Buggy shook his head. โ€œNo, get him off this ship. He could beโ€ฆ a kelpie or something. Get him out of here!โ€
โ€œHeโ€™s not a kelpie.โ€ You sighed.ย 
โ€œYou donโ€™t know that!โ€
Rolling your eyes you looked down at the kid. He had grabbed hold of your pant leg, gripping it tightly as he stared at the man in the doorway. This was a lot for both of them but you needed the captain to calm down. You knelt down and touched the kidโ€™s bare toes. He took a step back and gave you a weird look.
โ€œHuman toes, no hooves.โ€ You pointed out. โ€œHe also mentioned the Oro Jackson and being an apprenticeโ€ฆโ€ You looked back at your husband. He paled and shook his head. This was too much. This was not him, this had to be some form of trickery, or a shapeshifter. โ€œBesides, Iโ€™ve spent enough time with my husband to know when Iโ€™m with him as a child.โ€
Kid Buggyโ€™s eyes widened, looking between you and Adult Buggy. Child? Wasโ€ฆ this supposed to be him in the future? As an adult? His jaw dropped, he couldnโ€™t believe it. You smiled at the expression on his face, pleased the kid was in awe of this.
โ€œI turn out to be a drunk loser?!โ€ The kid shrieked. โ€œWhy?!โ€
Okay, that was not what you expected. You slapped your hand to your face while your husband looked ready to throw the kid overboard once again. Kid Buggy just shook his head, not believing this. Was this an alternate reality of some kind? He wouldnโ€™t be like this. Was this guy even a pirate? He didnโ€™t seem like it from the little bit the kid had seen already. He was not impressed in the slightest.
โ€œI want him gone.โ€ Buggy snapped. โ€œNo kelpie or bad omen crap is allowed on this ship!โ€
He stormed off after that.ย

Ruben Dias x Reader - Remember You and Me Part 6/8
Yeah, you're not ready.... ๐ŸŽฌ
Tumblr media
Summary - After a traffic accident reader is left with no memory of her life with Ruben, who desperately tries to get her to remember him.
Enjoy!
Maybe all you needed was time. With time you had adjusted well to the life you once had. Your relationship with Ruben took a step further once he permanently moved back into your bedroom. With time you had accept that for your memory to be restored you simply had to start over, especially when it came to your degree in biological science. As the days passed however, you became more and more desperate to remember who you were as a student because that was a time that no other person could voucher for but you.
You started keeping a journal, hoping that writing down your thoughts and feelings might help you to remember something, anything. But every day was like a blank slate. One day, as you walked across campus, somthing out of the ordinary happned. You saw a man who looked familiar. He was tall, with dark hair and brown eyes. He smiled at you, and for a moment you felt like you knew him.
"Excuse me!" You shouted, waving towards the man. To your exhilaration the man waved back. "No way."
You couldn't lose him, you thought and ran ahead in order to catch up with the guy. Your heart raised as the man seized to walk, waiting for you to catch up to him. "You know me, don't you?" Was the first words to come out of your breathless mouth. "As a student I mean."
The man frowned.ย  "Um...I mean you were my roommate for two years."
"I was? So we are friends?"
"Um...sure. Y/N, right?"
"Yes, that's me!" You jumped, quite over the moon to finally be recognized by someone on campus. You hurried to collect yourself, explaining yourself to the man, who's name turned out to be Joshua.
"Yeah, I heard about your accident. I'm sorry about your memory loss." He said.
"Could you please tell me a bit about who I was, you know...before the accident?"
"Oh, well we didn't really have any classes together since we don't study the same major." Joshua was undergoing an English literature major he explained. "And we didn't really hang out beyond the apartment we shared."
"Didn't I have any friends that I brought over?"
Joshua looked to ponder through his memory. "I mean I remember you going to some of the parties thrown around campus. Don't remember who you went to those with though. And then you sort of stopped once you got together with that guy you met...what was his name?"
"Ruben?"
"Ruben Dias, exactly! That was cool I guess. You asked me to come with you to one of his games once."
"One of his what?"
"His football games?"
"Ruben plays football?" You frowned. For some reason you thought he was a hockey player, but perhaps football made more sense. You had never asked him about it simply because he never seemed interested in talking about it with you. Matter of fact, Ruben never really shared his interest with you.
"Look I've got to get to class, talk to you later?"
"Wait!" You stopped him from leaving. Joshua had done more for your than he obviously understood. "Is it okay if I have your number,ย  you know...ย  in case I have some more questions?"
"Sure." He shrugged. "It should already be in your phone, shouldn't it?"
You had been roommates for two years, of course his number should already be somewhere in your contact list. "Right but in case it isn't." You handed him a pen and a ripped page from your notebook.
He took it, perhaps aware of how desperate you were for more information about yourself.
You thanked Joshua for his kindness, letting him go on about his day. You, on the other hand, had a phone call to make.
"I'm glad you called me, Y/N" Rachel said, parking her BMW as close to the Ethiad Stadium as possible. It really rubbed you the wrong way - Ruben never inviting you to watch him play. Perhaps he thought you were more interested in remembering details of your own life to even bother remembering details about his life. This wasn't true. You'd love to know more about Ruben and what he did for a living.
"I got us seats behind the team bench. Ruben will be able to see us from there."
You explained your desire to Rachel, who was more than happy to help.
"Did he often bring you to his games?" You asked, as the two of you walked across the parking lot, towards the magnificent stadium.
"Who, Ruben?"
You nodded. You and Rachel were really different from one another. She was more outgoing and outspoken, perhaps that was something Ruben was missing in you?
"Honey, I still beg Ruben for tickets to this day. I love watching City play."
Her words left you feeling somewhat betrayed. Why would Ruben invite his ex girlfriend to his games but not you?
As you and Rachel found your seats in the stands, you felt a mix of excitement and nerves. You had no idea how Ruben would react to your surprise visit, but you hoped that it would bring you closer together.
The game started, and you watched in awe as Ruben and his teammates ran up and down the field, their movements fluid and precise. You cheered and clapped along with the other fans, feeling proud to be Ruben's wife. At halftime, you noticed Ruben looking at you from the field. He caught your eye and smiled, and for a moment, you locked gazes. You felt your heart race realizing that he was actually happy to see you.
"Y/N what are you doing here?"
After the game, you waited for Ruben in the locker room. When he emerged, sweaty and exhausted, you threw your arms around him and gave him a big kiss.
"I'm so proud of you!" You said, beaming. "You were amazing out there!"
Ruben blushed and looked down at his feet, mumbling something about the team's performance. But you could tell that he was happy, and that was all that mattered.
"It's about time you brought her Dias."
"Rachel?" He stopped hugging you at the sight of her. "So this was your idea?"
"No, I asked her." You interfered.
Ruben's brows furrowed.
"I wanted to see you do what you love."
His expression mellowed, a hand reaching out to caress your cheek. "Y/N, I didn't know...I thought it might overwhelm you."
"What, a game of football?" Rachel snorted. "Just because City has won it all doesn't mean people are passing out in the stands at the sight of you."
Ruben rolled his eyes, ignoring her. He grabbed your hand. "Come, there is people I want you to meet."
Ruben introduced you to some of his teammates, all of whom hadn't left the locker room already. You recognized some of them from your birthday party, others you had only seen on TV before.
"This is John and Bernardo." Ruben said, quite happy to introduced you to them.
"Hello love, happy to see you come around again." Said the guy named John. You instantly recognized him as the man that you bumped into in the toilet at Rachel's penthouse. Embarrassed, you shook his hand. "Nice to meet you."
Bernardo on the other hand was a hugger, ambushing you in a way that made Ruben a little nervous.
"That's enough,ย she's not one of your fucking teddy bears Bernardo."
To this you and John laughed.
It was quite a lovely encounter,ย  meeting Ruben's teammates. Rachel already seemed familiar with some of them. She joked around with them and they happily greeted her with hugs.
"Ready to go?" Ruben asked. It was only natural that you'd leave with him. However you stood frozen. Somthing about the whole encounter in the locker room brought back a memory...
"Hey, what did I tell you about eating our match balls." John exclaimed at the sight of you. You had just entered the locker room, with Ruben by your side. He held an arm around your shoulders, letting you support your weight against him.
"Ha ha very funny John." You struggled to walk up and hug him and so John had to get up and come to you.
"How far along are you?" He asked. To which you answered "Too far."
"She's very comfortable in there." Ruben joked.
Bernardo popped up before you. "Can I touch it?"
"No, you can't touch my wife's belly. How many times must I tell you Bernardo." Ruben put a hand to his friends chest, preventing him from coming any closer to you. To this everyone in the locker room laughed.
"But I want to feel her kick." Bernardo protested, "She is forsure better than her dad."
You placed a hand to your stomach, only then realizing how big you had become.
"Y/N, please talk to me?"
You were brought back, out of an hypnotizing state.
Ruben was shrugging your shoulders in panic, whilst John stood before you waving a hand before your eyes. "I think she's back." He said.
"What happened?" You groaned, feeling a throbbing headache coming on. It was happening again, you remembered something from your past. However this memory...it couldn't be true.
"I knew you shouldn't have brought her here." Ruben hissed at Rachel.
"Come on Ruben." His teammates tried calming him down, whilst one of the medical staff brought you aside to take care of you.
"I told you not to to bring her here but you never listen!" He shouted, quite aggressive towards an unmoved Rachel. Although she looked at you with slight shock in her eyes, as if what just happened to you had frightened her a bit.
"I'm never letting you near her again. Do you hear me!"
"Rรนben, se acalme." (Ruben, calm down) Bernardo tried calming him down, at the same time keep Ruben away from Rachel. It was all a bit blurry to you, why he was so upset.
"How many fingers am I holding up?" A member of the medical staff asked, as he kneeled down before you.
"Two." You guessed.
"Okay..." The man stood. "She needs to get to the hospital...now"
Hearing those words Ruben turned to you. "Y/N?"
You weren't sure what all the commission happening around you was about. You had a painful headache and all you could think about was your memory. It was playing in a loop in your head. You, with your hands on your belly,ย your pregnant belly. But if this was the case, if the memory was in fact from your past, where was she, where was your baby?

It's Okay To Not Be Okay -P.G
Summary: When the pression gets to Gavi, you're the only one who can calm him down
Tumblr media
"We need you"
When Alejandro called you after one of their recovery trainings, that your boyfriend has been awful, distracted and very moody during the last few trainings, your ears shot up to listen every single detail the youngman had to say to you.
Pablo indeed has been a bit off these days but everytime you asked him, he shook his head and deny it everytime.
You didn't wanted to overwhelm him more than he probably should be so you just stepped aside lightly and got ready to listen for whenever he was ready to talk.
But those moments never happened.
And it was something that truly bothers you from him, he always shuts down when he has something going on, not allowing you to help him.
You kicked yourself over and over again not having pressured him to talk to you about whatever he has. With tears pooling in your eyes, you listened to Alejandro speak
"Thanks Ale" You said "I noticed it but he hasn't tell me anything, I will try and talk to him" You nodded even though he couldn't see you "and see what's going on"
"Text me how it goes, yeah? We're all a bit worried for him" You smiled
"Will do, thank you. Have a nice evening, Ale" And after that you hung up.
You couldn't focus on the words on your laptop, they were blurry too. You took off your glasses and cried into your hands.
After a while of crying, you were sat looking at your laptop but not paying attention to anything of it. You didn't even realized the device was asking you for its charger.
When the sound of the door opening and closing filled your ears but still you didn't moved an inch.
"Hermosa, I'm home" You heard his tired voice and the need of crying once more filled your body "ยฟHermosa?" He asked again his voice getting closer and closer each time passing "Hermosa, why don't you talk to me?" He asked standing at the beggining of the living room, you heard his steps until you felt him sat next to you "Have you been crying?" He said almost immediately. You didn't answered him "Amor, what's wrong?" Silence "Y/N"
"I asked you that too" You murmured softly "but you never tell me a thing" You sniffed "I hate that" You nod "it's not fair for you to be so worried about me but you don't let me be that worried about you" Your eyes turned to look at him
"I know something's wrong with you, Pablo; but you always turn me down, you don't want me to help you, you don't allow me to help you. I have noticed you are off" You shake your head crying "but you don't let me in"
"Amor" His voice cracked and his eyes grew watery
"I'm your girlfriend, I'm your friend, I'm your partner and I want the best for you always, I want to help you, I want to make you happy, I want to push you do good things you want, I want to hold you and comfort you whenever you're down but I can't because you don't let me" You sniffed "I've know for days something's wrong with you, something's bothering you but I can't know what it is" You took a breath "You've been down and I hate it"
"But I hate the most the fact you don't let me in" You confessed and seeing as Pablo was silent you kept on talking "Alejandro called me today, they have noticed you're off too, they have tried to talk to you but you get mad at them or simply ignore them and they are also worried. You've been acting strange, he said you've been distracted, that you haven't been as good as you always are, you are overworking yourself and they want to help you but just like it happens to me, you don't let them"
"It's kind of hypocrite of you to worry and ask me constantly about what's bugging me but you don't let me do the same" You shook your head
"Pablo, I know you've been told and critiqued for being a teenager, often people calling you a kid, degrading your football skills and also way of being; but whatever is bugging you please, please tell me. I worry constantly even if you're fine or not, I can see the wheels in your head turning and turning, I can see you over thinking, I can see you suffering because of it and I want you to talk to me, I want you to tell me what's bothering you, I want you to communicate with me just like you want me to do with you! I won't judge, critique, laugh or think of a certain way of you. What I want is to help you out, you won't bother me, you will not make me feel mad or anything among those lines if you trust me with your problems. You will hurt me if you don't, I'm here for and with you, Pablo"
Both of you were crying by the end of your rant "I'm sorry"
That's all Pablo said before crumbling down in tears and in your arms, you pulled him to lay on top of you as he cried it all out
"I never want to worry you, I don't want to bother you, you have your Uni stuffs, you have your work stuffs, your own problem going on that I didn't want to be a burden for you"
"You are also one of my priorities, Pablo. You're my boyfriend and I always worry about you. If you're good or if you don't. You're my loved one" You wrapped your arms tightly around him "What's going on?"
"We haven't done well these past few matches. After el Clรกsico we haven't been able to get a win until the Atlรฉtico game and still we had lot of chances and we didn't got them" He let out "I had a chance. If only I had directed it a bit to the middle, I would have done something. The fact I'm kept on getting fouled and no one does a thing but I keep on getting yellows for everything I do. The constant hate of different players, media and even fans. We are losing it, I'm losing it and I don't know how to fix that" He cried into your chest as you shushed his cries a bit, not liking it when he cries, hand running through his hair and kissing his hairline.
You heard everything he had to say, word by word and processed them hard, you wanted to help him out. You couldn't stand seeing your lover in this way.
"If you stress and overwork yourself" You started talking after a while "you'll only do it worse" You declared "Your mind gets mumbled and you only focus on your worst and not on your best" You said into his ear "You can't change and work each one of your teammates but you can start the change on yourself after it, you can make them see they're a bit off, help them get better and as group make yourselves better each time and get to that Barcelona you've always been"
"But the change starts with you, amor. Don't overwork and don't stress. Don't listen to any of those fuckers because they don't know a single thing of you and who you are. Such a beautiful human being in and outside and also one of the next rising starts in football. You've achieved in such a young age what they have in almost 10 years or more. You only need the support, care, love of your loved ones and to trust yourself always, mi amor"
Pablo by this time was done crying but still was sniffing from time to time, he shifted a bit to leave kisses on your chest. He was feeling better and you could see the tension leave his shoulders and soon whole body
"Thank you" He said looking into your eyes
"No need to thank me, Pabs. I'm always gonna be here for you and It's okay to not be okay. You're human, you feel, care, worry and more. People should understand that and not make fake stories that cause damage in all aspects to you" You kiss his forehead "I love you, mi niรฑo and I always want you to trust me with everything" He smiled nodding
"Sorry for that" You shake your head smiling "I love and hate how you know me so well" You laugh
"You do the same for me, loverboy" You pat his shoulders and massage them a bit "Want to disconnect for a while and relax?" His eyebrows shot up
"Joder claro que sรญ"
You both got up and ran to your shared room when you turned around Pablo was without shirt and pulling at your hoodie
"What do you think you're doing, seรฑor?"
"Aren't we going to disconnect and relax?" You nod
"I meant it by playing COD: Black Ops" His eyebrows furrowed and you laughed out loud
"That's nor fair!"
"C'mon, campeรณn, time to play" You threw him a control and got at your side of the bed, smirking "... if you're not tired after, we can do what you were thinking of"

Smoker eats an aphrodisiac fruit
Request's text -> Captain Smoker gets hit by an aphrodisiac devil fruit but it takes awhile to take effect. But when it does let's just say breeding kink + degradation kink. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ This man has been my fever dream ever since he showed up in Loguetown. And post time skip Smoker? Now that's a fine piece of man. But yeah if I could request that for his bday and if you could leave my name out please? ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘ˆ
Thank you for your request! It was a bit difficult for me to write about degradation kink but I tried so I hope you enjoy it anyway even if it's not as much as you requested! This prompt was sooo good, I'm glad you requested me the aphrodisiac fruit since I've read fanfics about it but never with Smoker! This is the third and last fanfic about "Smoker's birthday event" I hope you enjoyed this little event!
Characters: Smoker TW: not proofread (hickeys, receiving oral sex, choking, praising kink, degradation kink, breeding kink, no protection used, creampie) Words count: 1,5k MINORS DNI
Gardening was a new thing to you, but you decided to give it a chance when you heard someone talking about a special fruit with an aphrodisiac effect: a strange man at the fruit and vegetables market sold you some seeds, he defined the fruit that should have grown from them having an "aphrodisiac" effect, so you decided to give those seeds a try. It's not like you and Smoker needed a boost on intimate moments, not at all, but you wanted to see if what you were told was true about this kind of fruit. One day, eventually, after weeks of cures towards the little plants, the fruits were grown and ready to be eaten: they looked like tomatoes, with a red and yellow fuzzy peel, and they seemed kinda juicy tough. The moment to harvest them had finally come. As you bring the fruits into the kitchen, you spot Smoker sitting at the dinner table, reading the marine's report. He greets you with a head movement, eyes fixed on the paper and mind concentrated on the daily news. You lean towards the sink to wash away the dirt from the fruits and to make them ready to eat. Little blueish leaves were still attached to the stem of the plant, you separate the fruits from it as you throw away the unedible parts. "What's that, love?" he asks you suddenly. You turn towards him, his brown eyes were now full of curiosity and fixed on you and the fuzzy fruits you were holding in your hands. Useless to say that you didn't want him to know what the effect of the fruit was, since you didn't want to conditionate his behaviour or to give him a chance to refuse to eat one. "It's a new kind of tomato I've found at the market, do you want to taste one?" you reply while handing him one fruit. "Sureโ€ฆ" he grabs one and starts squeezing it a little "It's softer than an actual tomato" Smoker seems quite hesitant but eventually bites it. You didn't waste a second to ask him how it tasted and if he was feeling different from the habit. His gaze showed a little bit of concern as you say so. "It's like an ordinary tomato. W-why should I feel different?" he questions. "No, it's nothingโ€ฆ" your face shows a bit of disappointment. Smoker grabs his marine's papers and starts reading again as if nothing happened. Maybe it needed more time to have its effect on himโ€ฆ? You decided to wait a little bit longer, staying in the kitchen and minding your own business, but controlling his behaviour changes now and then. He manages also to eat the whole fruit but after twentyโ€ฆ thirty minutes you notice nothing different about him. You lose all your hopes as an hour pass. Probably it was just a bizarre but normal fruit without any kind of power. And you got scammed: you've paid a lot for that seeds. The fruits you cleaned were still in the sink, you were red with anger and decided to throw them away in the garbage. You pick up all the fruits and bend over to the trash ready to throw out them. But something suddenly stops you from doing that. Your head turns slightly as you feel something grabbing your waist while you were bent over the can. Smoker was standing right behind you, his large hands on the dips of your waist and his hips rubbing against your butt. "S-Smokerโ€ฆ" you try to say, but he puts two of his fingers in your mouth to let you wet them.
This is happening so fast that you can't help but follow every move of his and satisfy his desires. Your tongue whirls around his two fingers, he pulls them out a second later just to stick his hand in your pants, pumping two fingers inside your core without hesitation as you are still completely dressed. A growling moan escapes your mouth, now you can feel his bulge against your butt as he fucks you with his thick fingers. "What did you do to me, love?" he whispers in your ear, his deep voice sending shivers of excitement all along your body. There's no need to reply to him since he acts so fast pulling down your trousers and panties and making you lay face down on the cold kitchen counter, your waist bent perfectly at his hips height. His face is now at your butt's height, Smoker wastes no time and starts eating you out while pounding again his fingers deep inside of you. His tongue manages to caress your slit so heavenly as if he's starving to make you cum all over his face. "You taste so good" he moans against your core as he sucks your cunt with his lips and tongue. His fingers curl inside of you reaching spots you never know you had and that makes you archer your back, losing your mind in pleasure. He pulls away from you for barely a second as you hear him unbelt his trousers and trowing every clothes he had on the ground. The tip of his cock rubs against your dripping slit, he places his hands over your waist and leans closer to you to whisper something in your ear. "Now, be a good girl and take it all for me" he sounds like he's praising you. In just one move Smoker trusts his thick cock inside your cunt, making it stretch heavenly to let him fuck you just as he desires.
You can't help but moan as you feel his length buried so deep inside of you, your gummy walls clenching around his cock as if you are begging for more. He feels how much you desire him at that moment. "My little slutโ€ฆ begging for my cock" he whispers with a grin on his face. Your eyes widen as you hear Smoker saying that, he has never said those things to you, the fruit affected him for sure. Hearing him saying such smutty things to you makes your body tremble in excitement, tough. You never expected to like such things. He grabs your butt and spanks it a little while trusting his length so slow and deep that makes you want to move your hips against his to let him fuck you faster. "You want more my little slut? Do you want me to breed you?" he says almost chuckling feeling you move your butt to feel him more. You can't say anything but moan in agreement, you'd let Smoker do anything as he's so wild right now. He leans his face closer to yours, you turn your head slightly thinking he's about to kiss you, but his lips start to lick and bite your neck to let you know how involved he is. His hand grabs softly your neck to choke you just right: that thing made you feel more excited than ever. His trusts become faster and faster, the tip of his cock hitting your cervix as if he wants to breed you with the biggest load he has. But Smoker is not selfish, even though he has lost his mind and has become like a wild animal due to the aphrodisiac fruit. His other hand goes down between your legs and starts to rub your clit in a circular motion while continuing to pound his thick cock as deep as he can. His breath becomes heavier, and you feel it against your neck since he won't stop biting it as he claims you as his. "S-smokerโ€ฆ I can't hold it anymore" you whisper to him as if you are praying for him not to hold back. "Beg for it," he says mercilessly with a grin, telling you to ask him what you want. "I beg you, Smoker, breed me" you beg him with a lewd voice. The way you asked him made something snap in Smoker's head, as he pulls you closer to him trusting his cock inside of your cunt without taking a breath and continuing rubbing your clit, ready to fill you up whole. You can't resist anymore, the way he touches you and fucks you so heavenly made your orgasm approach so suddenly that you almost didn't have time to tell him. Your moans and the way your gummy walls clenched around his length spoke for you, Smoker feels that you are cumming all over his cock and can't hold back his climax too. "Let me breed you nowโ€ฆ" he growls against your ear as he releases probably the biggest load in his whole life inside of you. There's so much of it that starts leaking from the sides even without pulling out his cock. You can feel him pant after cumming inside of you. "Good girlโ€ฆ such a good girl" he whispers as he's still buried deep inside of you. You turn your head slightly to give him a wet kiss. After a couple of minutes of making out so sweetly, you try to move away thinking that moment was over. "Where are you going? I'm not done breeding you yet" he says with a deep voice pulling you closer to him, his cock has become hard-rock again. Smoker is ready to fuck the life out of you one more time. The effects of the aphrodisiac fruit would have lasted a long time.

Hi! Hello! Can I request separate for Fyodor and Dazai where the newbies (cough Sigma cough Atsushi) had a crush on their s/o's but they deny it WHILE BLUSHING RED, and insist that they just admire and inspire to be strong like s/o (Even thou s/o is on a very different league compare to them)
I'm so sorry I like vanished for a sec- I've been taking a break from some things but I'm back!! Anyway I was so excited to write this- always so fun to write some cute crushes.
Tumblr media
It wasn't like Atsushi had never had crushes before- there had been some cute girls over the years, definitely. I mean he couldn't name them off the top of his head, but he'd definitely had crushes.
Yeah those were nothing compared to you.
When he had joined the Agency, he had taken notice of you- Dazai's pretty significant other who was smart and sharp as a knife. You were sweet and kind, compassionate in a way he was unused to, and always ready to match Dazai in whatever wild scheme he had cooked up for the day.
Now Dazai wasn't an idiot- far from it, he was incredibly intelligent. You two had been together for a couple years when Atsushi had shown up, and when he noticed Atsushi's budding crush on you, he had teased you to no end. Truth be told, Dazai found it funny. And one day, he cornered Atsushi in the empty office, a wicked smile on his face.
"Atsushi," he called, his voice taking on a singsong lilt that made the white haired boy wary of what was coming next.
He poked his head around the corner, looking at Dazai laying on his couch. "What is it?"
Dazai beckoned. "Come here, would you? I've got a little question."
Atsushi walked forward nervously. "Yes sir?"
"Y/n," Dazai said. "What do you think of them? Honestly?"
Atsushi sputtered, stammering before trying to cover up his reaction. "Y/n? They're uh- they're nice! Really...really nice."
Dazai's smile widened. "You think so? And what about their appearence? What do you think of that?"
Atsushi wanted the Earth to swallow him whole right then and there.
"I mean they're attractive, I guess? They have a good smile...and pretty eyes...and their smile is-" He cut himself off when he saw Dazai's smirk. "I mean you asked! And anyone would say that about them it doesn't mean anything and honestly I just see them as a mentor- I mean they're so powerful and smart who wouldn't want to be like them right like everyone likes them-"
"Atsushi, you can stop answering this dumbass's questions."
Atsushi stopped his rambling cold, freezing in panic as he slowly turned around. And there you stood in the doorway, leaning against the doorframe as Dazai died of laughter on the sofa.
Crap. You had definitely heard everything.
Tumblr media
Now. Sigma was a comparably logical person. It wasn't often his emotions got the better of him- one didn't make it into the Decay of Angels by letting things like emotions control them, or how they made decisions. He had always been that way; he got things done, and while he wasn't unkind, he was simply matter of fact. He'd been called blunt more times than he could remember, but he didn't mind. He was who he was- nothing changed that.
And then, of course, you had come along.
He knew who you were; he made it his business to know things. Fyodor's partner and largely considered the second in command in the Decay of Angels. Dangerous, stunning, and deadly cunning- how could he not know who you were.
And suddenly, he was getting distracted all the time. He was giving the wrong orders, daydreaming while on duty, dealing the wrong hands- it was terrible. He would be working and suddenly the thought of your pretty smile would pop into his mind. He would be trying to sleep and he would think of how you pulled the wildest stunts at times just to entertain yourself.
Worst of all? He knew Fyodor noticed. Smart people did not get on Fyodor's bad side- smart people didn't antagonize him and they most definitely did not have crushes on his significant other.
So he rationalized. It wasn't a crush- he just admired you is all. And who wouldn't? You were a top member in one of the most feared organizations in the world. You were smarter than most people could conceive, and to top it all off, you were extremely strong. Yeah, that was all. He just really really admired you. That's what he told himself when he caught himself staring, or when he realized he'd been thinking about you during work again.
Not a crush.
Definitely not.

DP x DC Prompt: Then Only For A Minute
Bruce Wayne was a thief.
At least that's what Vlad convinces himself.
He stole Daniel away from him and brainwashed him into staying in Gotham City instead of going to Vlad! It was the only explanation on why Daniel would choose a stranger over somebody he knew. Somebody who understood his pain and his woes! Who knew what it was like to be hurt by Maddie and that idiot Jack.
But when he manages to weasel his way into one of Bruce Wayne's fundraisers suddenly he feels as though he missed something.
Something big.
When Vlad had first met Daniel he had smiled at him with trusting eyes and respect but when Bruce Wayne called for Danny and he walked over and looked up at the man there was a look the two shared.
Love.
Bruce Wayne hadn't brainwashed Danny. He had loved him.
Loved him like the son Vlad had been so desperate to have. Loved him in a way that Vlad... wasn't sure he was capable of. Not after so many years alone and not with the intentions he had that night.
He had full intentions on going into the party, managing to catch Danny off guard and convince him to go with him - with violence if he had to. But as he saw Bruce talk to Danny and heard Danny laugh those plans melted with every bit of his determination
He had miscalculated somewhere.
Suddenly feeling much too small in a room much too big and crowded he rushed out, hearing complaints from people that he rushed past as he made his way out of the building and went outside. Sucking in a breath.
Vlad was being ridiculous. He knew he was. He could have Daniel if he went back in and just played his hand.
"Vlad? What the hell are you doing here?" Daniel's voice was hostile and suspicious. Vlad turned and faced him, looking at the teen.
He hadn't gotten any bulkier, not that he was surprised. Ghosts struggled to build muscles but something had changed. Daniel's eyes specifically. They weren't dark or bloodshot from lack of sleep. He was fully rested, his cheeks slightly tinted red from sunburns suggesting he'd been out in the sun frequently rather than sleeping as much as possible in preparation of the next fight.
Vlad looked at Daniel then at the not so subtle people standing near the door. His 'siblings' if he had to guess, ready to protect the newest Wayne. "You and I both know why I'm here Daniel." He said as Daniel tensed up but before he could growl Vlad held up his hand. "Stop... just let me finish."
Daniel, ever the fool relaxed.
But Vlad couldn't convince himself to strike.
"I came to take you back with me, by force if need be but... I see now that was a mistake."
"What?"
"It was a mistake. I... I've changed my mind."
"You... changed your mind? What kind of games are you playing?" Daniel asked tightly.
Vlad shook his head. "No more games, Daniel. I see now I'm wrong as much as that pains me to say. I have been so foolishly convinced that you needed me to find your place in this world, to be happy... but it's clear now I was wrong. So yes... I'm changing my mind. I want to see you smile, but I see now that means I have to leave."
"Just like that... you're... giving up?"
"Yes, Daniel. Just like that. I have much to think about, now, I must go." Vlad turned, then took a step when Daniel called out.
"Wait.... but what about you? Are you gonna be okay?"
"I'm sure I will be, eventually. Goodbye... Danny."
Okay so let's face it I suck at prompts and end up writing mini oneshots. x'D But here it is anyways.
Inspired by the song "Happier" by Marshmello and Bastille
