kisaki x fem!reader
summary ... kisaki's great a delivering goodies to his girlfriend but... kisaki is awkward at cuddling..
warnings ... fluff, talking of period, period cramps, kisaki is trying his best, awkward boyfriend kisaki lol, lots and lots of fluff
an ... i knowww @amidalaspo you wanted me to try to lengthen up the one-shots a bit soo I tried, but I don't think I succeeded.. 😭 and I always wanted to write about this trope but never had the motivation lol
Tumblr media
kisaki was coming back to his girlfriend's house bags filled with very unhealthy snacks that you have been craving..
it's day two of your menstrual cycle, the worst and best part in his opinion
the worst part was you being in lots of pain because of the cramps and having sometimes a loss of appetite.. but thankfully taking pills for the cramps brings your appetite back up--that's why he was buying you filling snacks--
and the best part of day two of your period week was that you always had your attention on him asking him dumb little questions and practically lazying around him
in general, you just wanted him to be by you for the ..first three-four days of your period
which he didn't mind he was always happy to be the center of your attention
pulling out the spare key to your house--your mother gave it to him and he would always be so smug about it..--
he stepped into the warm atmosphere of the house.. he will always admire you and your mother's taste in furniture and lighting
he always feels comfortable and inviting when he steps into your home[he'll make sure you'll be the one to decorate yours and his house when the two of you get married...]
he crouches to pet your dog who is also lazying by the front door before closing it and making sure it's locked and then turning around to walk in the direction where he hears a muffled sound of a movie being played behind his girlfriend's door
kisaki opens the door to see you huddling in your warm blankets and hallway asleep watching 'turning red' one of your favorite new disney movie
you turn your head to see kisaki standing by your open door with bags filled with the goodies you had asked him to get you
and from that sight alone you instantly woke up
"snacks! yay!" you give a gleeful smile
kisaki huffs "huh, no.. 'hello tetta' 'thank you tetta for being SUCH a good boyfriend' ? you're just going straight for the snacks?"
you roll your eyes playfully and sit up with a small wince--which kisaki frowns at--
"thank you soooo much tetta! for being such a good boyfriend and helping your girlfriend in need! your the best"
amused with your talk, he walks over to your best and sits don't next to you but places the bag between the two of you
"got you most of want you wanted, I couldn't find any dorayaki though.. someone had.. sold them all out.. for some odd reason.." kiaski mumbles
you pout at not having any dorayaki but then you smile and poke kisakis cheek "you're acting like you haven't done something like that before"
his face heats up at the gesture and moves his head away "it'll be the last time..too"
"ahh..tettaaa no! im sorry! here I'll even share some of my snacks with you" giving him a kissy face as you move over to lay your head against his shoulder and bring up a bag of gummies in front of his face and shake it gently
"hah? your snacks?" he turns his head back and recoils a bit from the closeness of your face to his--even dating for two years he's still nervous--
getting this silly love-struck smile on your face, leaning in closer to kisaki you kiss his warm cheek and lean back
"cmon I wanna keep watching my movie with you.. ill probably have to restart it now..."
kisaki was just staring off into space and then morphing his shocked expression into one of hopeless love
he then lays down next to you under the fluff blankets that smell like your perfumes and he peacefully lays there with you
his body stiffens at the impact of your head lying on his chest and he hears a faint giggling coming from you
he lets out a breath and puts a hand on your upper back and gently rubs back and forth
"you're going to kill me one day women.."
"then ill get to have aaall your money" you lightly laugh
kisaki's softly smiles and hesitantly leans his head forward and kisses the back of your head and he hears your breath hitch
"you can have all the money in the world.."
"tetta.."
"yes?"
"im cramping again..."
"you..want me to move from my comfortable position to get you pills?"
"yeah..."
"what am i going to do with you?"
Tumblr media
not proof read and i think I somehow strayed away from the topic of period comfort?? :(( I tried my best..
this fic was also inspired by Period Comfort by @kazutora-kurokawa !
I have like four other one-shots in wip [spoilers it's about baji, kazutora, nahoya and souya!!]

Punishment - Malak & Adrastus
WOHEO Masterlist
This is a piece for my whumpee and whumper one <3 (aka the heavily enthralled whumpee)
Taglist- @softvampirewhump
cw: vampire whumper, human whumpee, pet whump, hypnosis, intimate whumper, blood, biting
———————————————————————
“Say ahhh.” The vampire cooed, looping a finger through their thrall’s vibrant, perfectly pink collar, tipping his head upward. The motion was received easily, Malak’s head lolling along with his master’s whims.
He stretched his mouth open in response, eagerly sticking out his tongue with drooping eyes. Adrastus smiled down from their seat on the pillowy couch, delicately scratching their pet under his chin. 
Sticking a thick, juicy cut piece of tender meat on a fork, the vampire twirled the delight to their captives face, of which Malak eyed intently. The fork stopped just inches above his tongue, and he softly whined as a dribble of slick drool slipped to his chin. “I said, say ah.” Adrastus demanded, teasing the human. 
Malak obeyed their immature request, glassy gaze still fixated on the small bite of food. “Ahh…” he dutifully obeyed, lifting his head to rest on his master’s thigh. His voice was calm and slow, the sound strung out lazily.
Satisfied, the vampire giddily chuckled. They pressed the piece to Malak’s awaiting tongue, and the steak was quickly stolen by the clutch of his teeth. As he savored the marvelous taste dancing along his tongue and down his throat, Adrastus affectionately tapped his nose.
“Good boy.” They praised, and a warm sensation stirred through Malak’s belly. Their affectionate fingers sifted through his curls for a moment, as he nuzzled his body against Adrastus’ leg, purring with drowsy contentment.
He discreetly eyed the still busy plate of food rested next to his master, actively yearning for Adrastus to present him with another slice. Malak waited and waited, becoming a smidge more impatient with each repetition of the vampire’s lovingly stroking hand.
They must’ve taken notice of his expectancy, turning their gaze from him to the plate, with a smug grin. “Oh honey, dinner’s over.”
Malak’s face dropped, turning confused to his master. Over? The plate was still full! At the most they’d fed him only four pieces so far!
Adrastus dragged their hand down his perplexed expression, his skin chilled by the touch. “Darling, you’re being punished, remember?” The thrall’s mouth widened unintentionally, eliciting an amused laugh from his master. 
Punished? Malak had never been punished. Or, perhaps he just couldn’t ever remember having been punished, but that didn’t make much sense either. Malak was a good boy, practically perfect. Why would he ever need to be punished? 
“Puh… punishhh…?” He mumbled, words a slurry slipping from his lips. 
“Goodness, you don’t even remember what you did, do you? Silly boy.” They crooned, wholeheartedly enjoying Malak’s discomfort. “You broke one of Master’s things earlier. The vase Lord Darius had gifted me.” 
Malak didn’t remember. He tried to of course, but remembrance wasn’t exactly his strong suit. The painful sensation of the attempt quickly shut him down, to his dismay. He distraughtly frowned, shoving his head into Adrastus’ skin like a distressed kitten.
“Naughty, naughty.” They tisked. “I was very upset over losing such a precious item. What do you have to say for yourself?” Adrastus aggressively held him by the collar, straining Malak’s head upward. His brain dizzy and fuzzed, he stumbled over incoherent words.
“Buh, um, good… good boy, ack, ah, accident…” Adrastus was nearly overwhelmed by the cuteness of their dazed out pet, a smile creeping across their lips. They slid their grip from his collar, all the way down to the leash wrapped around their ankle. 
“Of course you didn’t mean to, dear, but I can’t just ignore these things. If I were to let it go, who knows what you’d do next! It’s my job as your owner to ensure you don’t dare think one naughty little thought.” They tugged the leash to the ground, violently jerking Malak onto his calloused hands. 
Adrastus stood tall, looming over the much larger man on the floor. Head spinning  and puzzled, Malak sluggishly crawled along with the commanding yank on his throat. His knees knocked against the hardwood flooring, with each of the vampire’s steps. 
As he was no longer huddled up to the couch, he soon truly realized how cold the house was. He probably should’ve known something was different when his Master had taken away his dress and blankets, leaving Malak almost in the nude during such a harsh winter.
He followed Adrastus to the corner of the room, where they had stopped, almost bumping into their ankles.“You’ll be staying in here for tonight.” 
Malak’s head wobbled, weakly shifting to where the vampire had gestured.
Numerous strings of thin, rusting wires of metal crissed and crossed over one another, constructing the form of a human sized cage. Malak instantly winced at the sight, digging his face into Adrastus’ calf, whimpering.
The vampire ignored his discomfort, shifting the lock and opening the door. “Come on, in.” They ushered, guiding him by the pressure of a hand on his back. 
Begrudgingly he flimsly climbed inside, folding and compacting his limbs to fit. With Adrastus having removed any sort of bedding for a bottom, the icy coil dug miserably into his flesh. Accompanying another strangled whine, Malak savored the sensation of one last gentle caress from his master.
Adrastus smiled, lovingly and genuine like Malak knew them, as they gingerly locked the gate, confining him inside for however long they wished. Tears pricked at Malak’s eyes, clouding his hazed vision even further. He watched as his master made their unbothered way around to the kitchen, and let out a strangled cry when the vampire carelessly dumped the rest of his supposed dinner into the garbage.
Soon after, Adrastus plopped back to the couch, settling comfortably to a pile of lush blankets and pillows, switching on the television to drown out the human’s noise. Malak desperately nudged his face into the freezing metal, feebly jostling it with his thick fingers. 
With a slow, jumbled brain, he softly sniveled and fussed. He’d already forgotten whatever master had said he’d done to deserve the treatment, too distraught by how uncaring his master had been. Malak couldn’t remember much, but he surely didn’t remember a time when master had put him in the cage. 
With pleading, disregarded eyes, he nuzzled himself into his own body, in a futile attempt to preserve warmth.
Malak shifted, the cage rattling slightly with each movement. The metal loop on his collar jingled with each shake of his leash, that tapped against the metal. He grunted as slender, freezing flesh slithered in a path from his back to his neck, and burrowed into his mess of locks. Nimble fingers carded gently through his hair, beginning to pull him from a light sleep. 
He opened his eyelids in search of the source, vision hazing in an attempt to adjust to the darkness. Malak trailed the stretched hand to a face, eyes still dreamy yet glistening at the realization of who the limb belonged to. 
“Muh…Mah, mmh…!” Craning his neck, still in the confines of the pen, he greedily snuggled into Adrastus’ blissful touch. Still drowsy and discombobulated, he nearly thrusted his head into the side of the gate. Adrastus expelled an entertained hum, of which he responded with a gratified sigh.
Malak groaned as his muscles began to budge and untwist without any of his own intent. Sorely, his limbs twitched with ache as they were tactfully unfolded and brought through the now open gate. 
With care and ease, the vampire delicately lifted Malak’s fatigued body out of the crate and onto their lap. “Your time is up, darling.” They whispered, with a honey smile that melted their pet’s mind. “I was so worried about you, my sweet. It was just utterly heart wrenching to see you so upset.” 
Adrastus rested a curled up Malak upon their chest, embracing him firmly. He mewled pleasantly, liquifying into their hold. “All nice and delightful now, isn’t it?” The vampire cooed, before leaning into Malak’s neck.
They planted supple, pliant kisses to the man’s flesh, their even breath warming the frigid area. With each press of their lips, Malak held back a stifled gasp. 
Adrastus’ mouth turned to his ear, almost tickling his skin by how close they were. “Neither of us got dinner tonight, dear. I think it’s time you pay me back for your little accident.” Adrastus huffed the words into his ear, breathy and smooth, replacing Malak’s squishy brains with cloudy cotton. 
Pleasure pulsed inside of him with each following word, his eyes fluttering from drowsy excitement as Adrastus audibly beared their fangs. They easily pierced his baren skin, one of the vampire’s arms holding their human close, the other gripping at his pet collar.
Malak barely noticed the reopening of the puncture wounds, too enamored with the sensation of his master licking the dribbles of red that began escaping him. 
Adrastus strung the moment out, one second eagerly sucking out their savory meal, the next leisurely dragging their sleek tongue across the openings. With each contact, Malak fell deeper into his master’s shoulder, eyelids drooping and jaw falling slack.
As cold as his still was, especially with the lack of warmth provided from the undead skin gripping his own, the pleasure seeping into Malak’s being more than made up for it.
Once satisfied, Adrastus tenderly kissed the wounds to a close. Their form fully relaxed, Malak resting fully numb and limp in their powerful clutch. 
The vampire studied the entranced human in their arms, brushing stray curls from his forehead. “Sweet dreams, darling.” They sang, practically inaudibly, printing one last peck to Malak’s flesh.

The Bird is the Word | V x Reader
The second time this silly little goth man called you "sparrow", your eyebrows shot up incredulously, and you leaned over to give him a baffled look.
Fluff making fun of V's taste in pet names. I got a little lost in the sauce, so this is... not over. Pretty twink boy is distracting, what can I say?
Tags: Reader-insert / x reader, gender-neutral reader, fluff, drabble, reading poetry together, SFW but there is (gasp) KISSING, goofy ahh poetry man, this man thinks he's sooo composed but naahhhh (and this is a hill I will die on)
Word count: 779
I have an unreasonable aversion to writing things under 1k but I wrote this in one go and it's too well self-contained to taint. There will be at LEAST one more installment of this, though I suspect 2.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The first time he had called you "sparrow", you had been a little preoccupied with looking dreamily into his eyes and at his lips as your faces neared one another. You love this stupid thespian dork too much. All this silly gushy bullshit. Half the time, you can't take him seriously with his cheesy-ass flowery nonsense, especially when it's particularly affectionate. But it nonetheless flusters you, and as much shit as you give him for it, it really is kinda touching and all that. He really is a cutie, huh?
The second time this silly little goth man called you "sparrow", your eyebrows shot up incredulously, and you leaned over to give him a baffled look. You blinked at him a couple of times, reeling at his choice of pet names. When his gaze waveringly met yours, his expression contorted just slightly, but you had to hold in a barking laugh. It seems your incredulous look flustered him a bit. His ears and cheeks dusted a faint pink after about 10 seconds of staring at him. He averted his gaze at 14 seconds, and his expression further contorted in embarrassment at 16 seconds. Your mouth wormed into a grin. You couldn't hold it any longer, you snickered at him.
"'Sparrow,' really??" You tease. You were still reeling at it, you'd honestly never heard anything like that before. It was kinda super cute and sweet in his typical silly, adorable way, but it was also the most ridiculous thing you'd ever heard.
He only softly snorted in embarrassment as a response, crossing his arms and further averting his eyes. His blush was fading, though, what a shame.
"What's next, 'pigeon'?" You needled.
"Oh, hush, you," he huffed.
You had a way of tripping up this silly little smug bastard, causing him to completely lose his composure and reduce him to flustered complaints and whines. You've still not come down from this little power trip.
"You're so cute, chickadee." You teased, receiving only an eye roll.
The third time he called you "sparrow", you were more prepared.
This instance had seemed like more of a slip of the tongue on his part. He had rested his cheek on his hand, sneaking dreamy looks at you between the verses of his book. You had been relaxing on your stomach right next to him, also reading from the book. He typically reads out loud to you, but he seemed to have been in a more quiet mood when you crawled up next to him. You didn't mind, you had pecked him on the cheek and both silently read, enjoying each other's company. You wise-cracked a comment or two here and there, and he expressed his thoughts on a few particular lines, but you were both otherwise quiet.
He would diligently glance over at you to see when you had finished reading before turning the page. These glances began to last longer over the course of the evening, and the poetry collection had come to a much denser poem, requiring much more time between the turning of pages. When he didn't turn the page after you had clearly finished it, you looked to him and, upon catching him stealing a look, smiled sweetly in response. What a dork. Your dork. After the second occurrence of this, you smirked at him. Upon the third, you had merely side-eyed him and snickered.
The next page was a new poem, shorter and sweet. You ran your fingers along the page as you read it over, a warm, soft look on your face as you soaked in the tender verses. You gave a soft sigh when you had finished reading it, your eyes continuing to examine the entry.
The raven-haired man was completely entranced by the sight of you in this moment. He smiled gushily at you and mumbled gently, "I love you, sparrow..."
In the dumb cutesy headspace from reading the poem, you were thoroughly tickled, and murmured your own "I love you too, finch." You met his dreamy look with one of your own.
He stuttered and ducked his head, grin stretching as he stared down at the bedsheets. He shook his head in amusement, his hair sliding down and draping over the side of his face closest to you. You tucked his soft, dark hair back behind his ear and gazed at him with adoration, pressing a kiss to his cheek. He was so damn pretty. Before you knew it, your hand reached over to the other side of his face, turning his head to meet his lips with yours. His hand fell to the back of your neck as he melted into your touch.

Aster h would totally be very clingy to angel when he’s had a drink or two :( like becoming a lost puppy just following her every move and he’d definitely become a tad bit needy whispering in her ear when everyone is engaging in different conversations “need you angel” she’d give his forehead a kiss and attempt to pull him closer to her but she ends up being the on in his arms his head falling on her chest laying there hearing her heartbeats she’s playing with his soft hair he’d whisper “let’s leave please angel wanna see what you promised you’d wear underneath” and she’s blushing so much whispering back “we are at home baby. can’t leave” and he just huffs loudly and you giggle everyone is looking at him “becoming a bit grumpy” you excuse him as he’s snuggling in your arms and it’s so sweet like Mitch and Sarah’s ar3 seeing Harry all lovey dovey:( Harry kisses your ear whispering “tell them to leave cause I wanna fuck my angel” she hits his shoulder “oh my god! They are your friends you tell them” kissing her cheek “so you wanna fuck me too, is that it angel?” She gasps “when did I say that?” He looks at her “just said to kick my friends out so I can fuck you” and angel might have not been their only listener
The way I have not stopped thinking ab this since u sent it I’m 🥸🥸🥸🥸🥸 bc aster h is such a “make love” kind of guy bc that’s how he views them being together even if it’s a morning quickie or something fast in the middle of the night before they fall asleep or just him taking care of her when she comes home from class like it’s all expressions of his love for her to him so to have him talk ab how he wants to fuck her im 🥸🥸🥸🥸🥸🥸 but I can SOSOSOSOSO see him being all puppy snd clingy like maybe they just moved into their new place so this is their version of a dinner party w Mitch and Sarah and Adam over like the usual suspects and they both drank a little that night but h is just feeling particularly happy and loose tonight bc ahh!! He’s finally living w her like that’s their bed in the other room and this is their house with their kitchen and their wine and they make this dinner together and she got dressed in a pair of cute jeans that make her butt look good but that’s his shirt she’s got on and he swears he sees the strap of a pretty bra she’s worn for him a couple of times and he just knows that she’s got something planned and he just wants to take her back to their bedroom and put her on their bed and finally really make this place theirs so he gets more and more puppy as the night goes like nudging her for her attention before he’s finally just grabbing for her and I need u angel:( and she’s like ofc!!! And reaches for his hand and goes to kiss him on his cheek while everyone’s distracted but that’s all she gets to do before she’s on his lap and his head🥺is on her heart🥺 listening to the heartbeat bc that’s the love of his life🥺 and he’s just grumbly saying he needs her now they should leave and she’s all flustered still w her hands in his hair like h this is our house we can’t leave! Like how silly is he!! And when Mitch and Sarah get all whispery and giggly she’s like all flustered still and sorry! He’s just getting a bit grumpy!! But they really don’t mind bc it’s always nice seeing h so lovey dovey and sweet on her and it’s nice to see y/n being okay w those small bits of PDA bc they know she’s shy still so they don’t mind if anything it’s just funny to see her get so flustered and h so 😠 bc he wants to be alone w her but it’s when h pulls her attention back to him that he’s kissing her neck before whispering “then make them leave bc I want to fuck my angel rn” and he shifts just enough that she can feel what’s becoming his hard on and she’s just oh my gos??? I’m not doing that u tell them!!! And he gets sososo smug bc she’s not saying no and if he knows his angel as well as he thinks he can tell by the way her hands tightened in his shirt and the way her breathing skipped and her thighs tensed just enough that she’s definitely not opposed to going to their bedroom she’s just too shy to kick them out herself so he gets way too smug and kisses her neck again before “mmm so you want me to fuck you then angel? Right now?” And she’s all heated cheeks and big eyes and omg h!!!! I never said that!!! And he’s like didn’t need to bc I know u want me to kick them out so I can take u to our bedroom and get u out of these clothes I know you’ve got something pretty on underneath🥸 and it’s just……..h does kick everyone out and they fuck on the dining table

Tumblr media
Maybe it’s because they were terrified. Maybe it’s because they know what’s out there and what evil lurks in every corner of the city. Whatever the reason is, her parents hid her from the outside world. Never was she able to step another foot out of the gates of her home. No matter how huge the mansion her parents keep her in, it still feels small and lonely. Instead of the friends that she should’ve made in kindergarten, she became friends with her parents’ employees. Instead of the high school friends that she was supposed to have, she has the few cleaners in the house. She didn’t feel like they work for her because they’ve become her friends that keep her sane for being in one place for her whole life. Being able to go somewhere that’s not the garden, the gazebo, or even the lake that became her favorite place has always been in her mind but never her heart never really demanded to go out. She gets curious at times but it’s not enough to make her go against her parents’ number one rule.
 “Never let yourself be known and never talk to anyone outside this house. If possible, keep yourself away from the entrance gates.”
Being the obedient daughter you are, you followed that rule without question. You became the daughter that your parents wanted you to be. You learned everything from your tutor. The basics of economics but mostly proper etiquette. You didn’t know why you had to learn those but you did what your parents wanted you to do without question. You always do…
 That’s why when your parents told you that you were to marry, you agreed with a little bit of hesitance. “It’s for the best, princess.” Is the only thing that your father said while your mom looked at you with a small smile. You thought that it was going to be like the ones in the movies. You imagined a magical wedding but you didn’t even have one. You were told to sign some papers and just like that, you’re married to some man you don’t even know. A man that you didn’t see until a few days after the signing of papers.
Tumblr media
  Steve never felt so disrespected in his entire life. He’s so used to being the powerful man of the city, the country even, that never did he expect some feeble man to come barreling into his business. The Y/L/Ns… He knew of them but he knew little about them. The family is so secretive but are known to be powerful. Nobody knows how they do it but now he has been graced to learn how.
Blackmail… Along with bribery. How fucking pathetic.
He didn’t know how the man managed to acquire his plans for a rival gang but somehow, the fucker did. The rival gang that he was trying to take down for so long and managed to make a plan of action until this fucker messed everything up. The bastard wanted to marry his daughter off to him for a powerful alliance. Saying something about how both of their names would benefit from the marriage. The bastard also promised a fat amount of money that he’ll receive once he marries his daughter. The bastard knew that money has always been a problem for him by the smug look on his face. 
“It’s simple. You provide us security, we give you money. We seal the deal once you sign the papers to be my daughter’s husband.” The old fucker says with such pride in his voice. Steve gritted his teeth before making a move to toss the man out but the fucker clicks his tongue at him. “Ahh, we also wouldn’t want Rumlow to know about your plans on attacking his turf a fortnight from now, do we?” The old fuck stares at him as he waits for his answer.
 Having no other choice, Steve says yes with flared nostrils. He glares at the way the man smiles giddily while walking towards the door. Before the old man could leave, he turned back towards Steve with a serious look before pointing a finger at him. “One more thing… My daughter will be your wife but you are not to touch her. You live at the mansion with her but you ain’t allowed to touch her. Do get out of her way as much as you can. You get all the money you want by following my orders. That easy. Nice dealing with you.” The man was out the door in an instant as Steve glared at the closed door before picking up a wine glass from his desk and throwing it against the door.
Tumblr media
   “It’s a bit weird, mother.” Is your reply when your mother came to visit you in your room and asked you about how you’re feeling given your situation. She continues to brush your hair with her fingers as she hums in response.
 “It’s not like the ones in movies, that’s for sure.” You joke, earning a chuckle from your mother.
“My situation… It’s not really normal, correct?” You pull away from your mother’s hands and turn to look at her. She lets out a sigh before turning you back around and resuming to play with your hair. “No…” She says. “We might have been a bit strict with you but we only did it for your safety. The world out there… It’s not safe.” She continues. Once again, you pull away from your mother to fully give your attention to her. “But you and father are always out there. You put yourselves in danger on the daily so why can’t I?” You look at your mother who was looking at you with an unamused expression. You let out a sigh before sighing. “I know... I know. It sounds a bit silly to ask myself to be put in danger… But what about marrying me off to some stranger! You told me that father is bringing him here after he signed the papers. He’s to live here with all of us. Mother, we don’t even know him. Why would you let a stranger into our home?” You reason out, making exaggerated hand gestures to back yourself up. When your mother makes no effort to respond to you, you retort with a scoff and an eye roll. 
“You’re so hell-bent on keeping me inside this place, claiming that it’s to protect me that you failed to realize that you’re putting all of us in danger by letting an unknown man live with us. Seems kind of idiotic to me.” 
 *SLAP*
 You look at your mother with wide eyes as you hold your left cheek as it is stinging in pain. “I-I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. That was disrespectful of me. I’m sorry.” You scrambled to get away from your mother, ignoring her calls as you left your room to run down the long hallway and down the flight of circular stairs. You went out of the mansion and started running down a pathway towards the lake. You were so upset and focused on getting to your destination that you didn’t see a strange man coming out of a black SUV just as you walked out of the mansion.
 You ran down the wooden dock, frowning at what you had said to your mother. You couldn’t believe how you acted just now. First, you disrespect your mother. Now, you hide yourself away like a child that got reproved for the first time. You clicked your tongue in annoyance, an action that you got from your father, as you paced around the wooden dock. “Of course, they were just trying to protect you, you stupid idiot.” You hit your forehead with your palms over and over before tilting your head backward to stare at the sky, not caring at how your eyes hurt at the blinding sun. 
 You closed your eyes after a few seconds, sighing out as you figured that you should probably go back. Your so-called husband was supposed to arrive today. You start to walk back when your foot slipped and suddenly, water enveloped your body. 
 You fell into the lake.
 You would think that being locked up in a big mansion would give you a lot of time to learn how to swim but with your luck, no one ever thought you how so now you couldn’t do anything but drown.
 Your arms flopped around you as you kicked your legs all over the place just to get some air down your lungs but you only found yourself sinking further down. You couldn’t even scream for help because you know that if you did, you would only be swallowing a whole lot of water. 
 Before you could lose your breath entirely, something grasped your flailing hand. You would’ve screamed if you weren’t pulled out of the water. Turned out, it was a hand. Not some kind of creature from the fantasy movies you’ve watched.
 You were sitting on the wooden dock, gasping for air when the sound of an annoyed huff caught your attention. You tilt your head up to see a man looking down at you with an annoyed expression. Your brain started clicking and then it hit you. He must be your husband.
 “You’re here early.” You whisper, looking down. You weren’t sure how to act around him. Around your husband. You would base it on the movies you’ve watched but so far, those movies were nothing like your life. You were sure that if you tried to act like one of the characters there, you would look like a complete buffoon. 
 “So glad to know that I’m married to a dumbass.” He cuts your thoughts off with a sneer. 
 “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to fall and drown like that.” You remember the lessons you had. About not engaging in someone else’s hostility. You looked down in embarrassment. You’ve never been called something vile like that so you must’ve made him really upset. He scoffs before shaking his head and leaving you on the wooden floor as he walks away.
Tumblr media
After that encounter with your so-called husband, you never really saw him again, even though the two of you were living in the same house. It was a few weeks after the drowning incident and you made sure to not tell anyone about it and you only hoped that Steve (you had to learn his name from your mother) didn’t tell anyone about it either. You and your mother are in good terms again and she’s currently in your room again, telling you how she and your father are to spend a few months in Prague to deal with a few business hiccups. You didn’t bother to ask if you could come with but you did bother to complain about them leaving. “You’re leaving me alone with a stranger under the same roof as me?” You exaggeratedly widened your eyes at your mother. “Oh, stop it. I’ve gotten to know Steve myself. I’m sure you’ll be safe with him. He seems like a nice guy. Although, I think your father gets a little bit on his nerves.” Your mother giggles to herself and you look at her with an amused grin. “You’re closer to my husband than I am with him.” You joked which earned a sympathetic look from your mother.
 “Talk to him. He’s your husband after all.” She caresses your face. You hold her wrist as you push your cheeks towards her hold. “I’m pretty sure he hates me, mother. I have a feeling that he’s scrupulously avoiding me.” 
 “How about you bake him something, hmm? You’re wonderful at baking!” Your mother grins at your excited reaction to the mention of baking.
 “I do love to bake…” You hummed in thought before giving your mother a faux pointed look. “Alright, I will bake but only because I love to bake. So if he doesn’t want to socialize with me, then so be it. I wouldn’t care.” You huff proudly as your mother looked at you with a grin and a hint of playfulness in her eyes.
 “What is it?” You ask her.
 “Why do I get the feeling that you want to impress Steve?” She chuckles at your stunned expression.
 “You have completely lost your mind, mother. Haven’t you got a plane to catch? Go on. Say hello to Prague for me!” You push her out of your room, her laughing at your antics before placing a kiss on your forehead and leaving you to yourself.
Tumblr media
  “Ooof!” You hissed as your finger touched the hot tray when you were pulling it out of the oven. You were making the third batch of cookies and somehow, you managed to burn your finger now. You quickly pulled the mittens off before putting the hot finger into your lips, as if sucking the pain away is possible. 
 You heard footsteps coming over and when you turned your head, you saw Steve looking at you with something you couldn’t comprehend. “H-hey.” You pulled your finger out of your mouth before hiding it behind your back like a kid. You tiptoed over the counter to reach the plate of cookies before walking over to him. “I made cookies. Would you… like to try some?” You moved the plate closer to his face but he only scowled at you before taking your right wrist and surveying your hand. He found the finger you were sucking on earlier and muttered something under his breath. You thought you heard him say ‘dumbass’ again like the last time.
 “Put cream on it.” He grumbled before leaving the kitchen. You glared at his back until he turned back around, making you wipe the glare out of your face before smiling bitterly at him. He walked towards you with a dark look until he was inches away from you. The position you two are currently in made you realize how tall he is. How he’s towering over you and how his biceps are poking out of his shirt. His crystal blue eyes are staring deep into your soul and you were almost hypnotized by it. You gulped in nervousness. You remember all the things you told your mother about this certain stranger that could possibly be a danger to you until he smirked and took the plate of cookies from the table before walking out once more, leaving you gaping at the door in confusion as your heart was beating faster than normal. From fear or something else, you do not know.
 ----
 Steve was deep in thought as he chewed on the cookies she made. It was really delicious and he hated that he liked it. He did his best to avoid the girl. He’s trying his best to avoid the girl. He did his best to hate the girl so things would be easier for him. He’s trying his best to hate the girl. He didn’t have time to babysit her. Her father is not someone he wanted to have ties with but he is. Steve didn’t want anything that has to do with that man and that includes her.
 But why is it so hard for him to keep her out of his mind?
 The first time he saw her, she had that cute little frown on her face but he found his heart skipping a beat at the sadness in her eyes. He knew he would regret following her but then he didn’t. He saw her as she fell down the dock and he didn’t know why he felt like his world stopped when he saw her gasping for air but it did. It took him his best efforts not to just dive into the lake to save her. Instead, he took her flailing hands and easily pulled her out of the waters. He wanted to keep her warm when he saw her shivering on the wooden floor but he suddenly remembered the deal. His worry was quickly converted into anger and annoyance so he managed to leave her alone, something heavy in his chest as he walked away from her.
 He hated the way she made him feel so he avoided her like a plague. Their home was big and avoiding her was really easy. It was stopping himself from going near her is the hard part. Her mother is the total opposite of her father. Her mother is a nice woman and living with the Y/L/Ns didn’t feel like a job other than her horrid father. Steve got to learn more about her through her mother. She talked about her so dearly. Steve felt his heart fall at the mention of her not leaving the mansion. It sounded like she was an animal caged in better surroundings. Steve realized why she acted so differently when he’s watching her. She seemed so… innocent. 
 Then he caught her baking cookies. It took him his best not to run towards her when he heard her hiss in pain. He watched as she tried to hide her injury from him. He didn’t know if he found it cute or annoying because she shouldn’t hide injuries from him. From anyone. If she was injured, she should get it to check as soon as possible. Then she offered him cookies. Steve swore that his heart leaped in adoration but he took the offered plate in front of him as a chance to check on her hand. He observed her fingers, internally flinching as he saw the burnt area on her index finger. “Such a clumsy little girl…” He muttered under his breath. Steve caught himself though. Why was he so worried about her? He quickly composed himself and dropped her hand. Before turning to leave. He heard her huff and he couldn’t help but to chuckle at that. He turned around to see her frowning at him only to have her eyes widened in surprise. She gave him a stubborn smile as he walked over to her, teasing her and testing her to see where her cuteness could go. Where her STUBBORNNESS could go. Did he really just say cute? 
 When he thought she had had enough, he smirked and took the plate of cookies before leaving.
 The plate of cookies that he’s currently munching on. 
 The more Steve thinks about it, the more he’s realizing that he couldn’t keep her out of his mind. It was impossible.
 The more he sees her, the more he wants to be with her. The more he sees her, the more he wants to protect her because it seems like she has a way of putting herself in danger.
 So innocent.
 So pure.
 He wanted her and he didn’t know if he could control himself anymore.
Tumblr media
  A week has passed and things with your husband seemed to have gotten better, if one is optimistically speaking. 
 He no longer avoided you so that’s better than before. He doesn’t acknowledge you much though. He only speaks to you to correct your every move. Called you out when you were walking barefoot around the mansion, mocked you when you walked around the docks, and even demanded you to leave the kitchens alone because according to him, you don’t know how to properly use it.
 He only ever opened his mouth to speak his mind of his distaste towards you and you were starting to miss the times when he completely avoided you.
 But you ignored the insults and kept your head high up. You aren’t going to sulk. Especially not when someone’s clearly made it his goal to make you feel just that.
 That’s why you’re currently making pasta. Ignoring his demand and continuing on having adventures in the kitchen. You just finished making the sauce so now you just have to cook the pasta. You took a pot that was way bigger than your head and proceeded to fill it with water from the sink.
 You struggled to carry it over to the stove, letting out a relieved sigh once you managed to set it down. The problem though, the bottom of the pot somehow got stuck on the burner plate. You clicked your tongue in annoyance before grunting and attempting to pull on the heavy pot. It remained stuck so you exerted more effort, succeeding but managing to tilt the pot towards yourself. You let out a yelp as the cold water inside the pot spills all over you. 
 “Y/N!”
 You felt his hands before you heard his voice.
 ——
 Steve heard clanking noises from the kitchen and he just had to roll his eyes at the thought of her prancing around the kitchen. Didn’t he tell her to leave the kitchen alone? He’s just trying to stray her from the harm she could put herself in. Not that he would ever admit that out loud.
 He walked into the kitchen, just in time to see water spill over her from the boiling pot. His blood went cold as he felt his heart stopping. “Y/N!” He rushed over her knelt body, covered in water. He cautiously touched her face, being careful not to hurt her possibly burnt skin. Why can’t she just listen to him? He told her not to work in the kitchen for a reason. 
 As he touched her seemingly cold cheeks, he watched as she looked up at him with an innocent confused look. “Steve?” Her voice was so meek yet it made his ear start to ring as his heart started to beat back to life. She must’ve seen his frantic expression because her eyes widened in realization before she’s shaking her head and pointing at the fallen pot. “I haven’t boiled the water yet! See? I’m fine. I didn’t burn myself.” She had the audacity to smile cheekily at him and he didn’t know if he should be leaping in joy with her or reprimanding her for being so careless.
 Steve clicked his tongue at her, something that he must’ve picked up from her, before leaving the kitchen with a huff. Something that he’s been doing a lot whenever he’s with her.
 ——
 After he left, you took a seat on one of the chairs, recalling what just happened a few moments ago. He thought you were stupid enough to pour boiling water all over yourself. Does he really think you’re that stupid? He looked so worried though. You smiled at the thought of him possibly caring about you. 
 You let out a short squeak when you felt something falling at the top of your head. A towel. Steve wrapped it around you until your head was the only part exposed. “Whatcha grinning on about, little girl?” His voice was stern but there was a teasing tone in it. You looked up at him as he watched you. You shook your head before furrowing your eyebrows when he bought the pot towards the sink, filling it with water.
 “What are you doing?” Your voice is small as you asked him.
 “Can’t trust you with this. You might boil yourself the next time you even try.” He clicked his tongue before effortlessly bringing the pot to the stove and lighting it up. After that he walked back towards you and sat at the chair beside you, turning himself to stare back at you.
 “I thought I made it clear when I told you not to work in the kitchens?” He mockingly tilted his head before raising one eyebrow at you. You stared back at him, not knowing what to say so you just tilted your head down like a chided kid. 
 “Uh uh uh…” You felt his long fingers under your chin as he tilted your head back to face him. “What’s the matter? Did you manage to burn your tongue as well? Hmm?” You didn’t know why but the way he was talking to you is making you feel something unfamiliar in your stomach.
 When you didn’t answer, he put the hand that was on your chin to the side of your mouth, his thumb brushing over your bottom lip. Your eyes fluttered when he managed to poke his thumb into your mouth and pressed it down your tongue gently.
 “Seems pretty alright for me…” He mumbles. You watched as his eyes widened in surprise when you sucked on his thumb absentmindedly. You realized what you were doing and stopped immediately. “No. No, don’t stop. Do it again.” He watched you with bright eyes as you hesitantly sucked on his thumb once more, feeling your body warming up at the current situation. 
 He slowly pulls his thumb out before rubbing it around your lips and leaning his face closer to yours. You could feel your heart panicking in fright or in excitement, you weren’t sure. You saw him close his eyes before he let out a sigh. He pulls away from you then ruffles the towel on your head. “Why don’t you go ahead and put dry clothes on? I think the pasta’s ready.” He grins before walking back toward the stove to start preparing the meal.
 You stumbled to your feet, mindlessly walking towards your room with a clouded mind.
 What was that all about?
Tumblr media
  All Steve could ever think about was her. Her beautiful lips. Her eyes that glisten with innocence. Her nose twitches whenever she’s focused on something. The way she fits in his hold. The way she reacts under his touch. 
 He couldn’t forget about the way she sucked on his thumb unknowingly and the way her eyes became hooded from his touch. It’s obvious that she had no idea what was happening and what she was feeling and that only fueled his hunger more.
 The thought of her being hurt made him furious. It made him protective. He wants to protect her at all costs because not even the ends of her hair should get hurt. No. Not on his watch.
 Steve couldn’t take her out of her mind even if he wanted to. That’s the problem. He doesn’t want her out of his mind anymore. He doesn’t want to avoid her anymore.
 Steve accepted it. 
 He knows that he wants her and he knows that she’ll be able to have him wrapped around her precious little finger if she wants to. 
 He realized how she has a tight hold over him without even knowing it and he’s accepted that fact. 
 He’s ready to do everything for the girl and she doesn’t even know it. He’s ready to give her everything he has and everything he is. 
 He’s ready to give himself completely to her. Of course, it is if she’ll have him.
Tumblr media
  After that encounter with Steve, you finally followed his instruction and stopped trying to make various meals in the kitchen. 
 You were craving cake so you asked one of the cooks to bake you a cake. That’s why there’s a whole cute pink cake in front of you at the kitchen counter. 
 You’re currently staring at it, thinking it’s too precious to destroy and eat but after a minute of your mouth watering, you give up and run your index finger on the sides until it is covered in icing.
 You licked your finger before sucking on it and humming at the sweet taste of the icing while your eyes are closed. When there is none left on your finger, you take your index and middle finger before sliding it on the sides of the cake to gather twice as much as the previous one.
 Your eyes are closed and lips parted slightly apart, ready to suck on your fingers one more time when a hand grips your wrist. Your eyes fly open to see Steve holding your hand while he’s looking down at your face with a boyish grin. Your eyes widened for the second time when his tongue darted out of his mouth and started licking the icing off your fingers.
 He was staring at you as he continued to lick the icing and you were starting to pull away when his lips parted wider to start sucking on your fingers. You’re frozen in shock as your eyes twitched at the sight of him sucking on your fingers. 
 You feel your heart drop when he starts groaning against your fingers. The unfamiliar feeling in your stomach made itself known again and you bit your bottom lip anxiously at the strange feelings you always get whenever Steve’s with you. 
 Your eyes follow Steve’s lips as he pulls your fingers out of his mouth with a silent pop. He looks at you with a smile before furrowing his brows. “Did you bake this?”
 “N-no! I had someone to bake it for me.” You’re quick to let him know that you didn’t make the cake. He smiled again and you just realize how giddy you feel when you’re able to make him smile like that. 
 “Really? So you finally listened to me?” He chuckles when he sees you nod shyly at him. “Aren’t you a good little girl.” He cooes before looking at the cake with a smirk. “This cake is really delicious…” He leans back to stand straight and you nodded at him in agreement. “I wonder…” 
 You let out a loud squeal when he suddenly puts his hands under your arms before pulling you up and sitting you down on the counter. You look at him with a stunned expression. “Wha—“ 
 “But I bet you taste better than this cake.” You couldn’t respond because he immediately connects his lips with yours, making your eyes pop out in shock as he continues to attack your mouth. You let out a small whimper when you feel his tongue pushing past your lips and roaming around the inside of your mouth, tickling the roof of your mouth.
 You start chuckling against his lips and he stops, looking at you in confusion. “You’re tickling me…” You point at the top of your mouth and Steve’s frown turned into a grin. His hand found their ways on the top of your knees and then he’s pushing them apart. “I know a place where I can tickle you... I’m sure you’ll like it.” He pulls you closer to him so you slide against the counter. He carefully pushes your shoulders until your back is laying on the cold kitchen counter. You feel him hiking your skirt up and pulling your underwear down before he sets your feet back on the counter, knees bent, and far apart. 
 You could feel him breathing against your skin and you could feel your body running hot while the hairs on your body stand in attention. You feel something wet run against your skin and you yelp as you sit on your elbows, looking at Steve alarmingly. His face was just in front of your core and tongue is just retreating your skin. 
 “Wh-what are you doing, Steve?” You bite your lip as you watch him stand up until he’s face to face with you. “I’m trying to make you feel good, baby. Do you trust me?” He presses his lips against yours and pulls away, waiting for your answer.
 “I don’t know…” You admit, stomach dropping at the sadness that flashes over his face.
 “Then let me show you that you can trust me. Can you let me do that?” He looks at you and smiles when you nod at him. He presses his lips on you once more, pushing you against the kiss until your back is back on the counter. He pulls away, pecking you one last time before going back to press kisses in between your legs.
 He licks up your skin, hands pressing down on your hips when you begin squirming around. You feel his mouth sucking on the bud before flicking his tongue over it. He doesn’t stop until you’re whining under him, unsure if you want him to stop or to do something else.
 “What do you want, little girl?” He breathes against your core, making your legs shiver at the sensation. 
 “I don’t know…” You whine, eyes staring at him as he stands over your body. He raises his right hand, fingers fluttering in display as he gives you a questioning look. “You want me to use this on you?” You could only nod in desperation because the feeling of emptiness when he pulled away from you is becoming too much.
 “Good girl.” You hear him whisper before going back in between your legs. You feel his fingers playing with your bud instead of his tongue and it feels overwhelming when he uses his tongue to press it against your entrance. 
 “Mmmhm” You close your eyes in delight as he continues to play with you. The familiar feeling in your abdomen makes itself known once again and this time, it’s stronger. You need more.
 “P-please…” You mutter under your breath, pulling on Steve’s hair to catch his attention. He looks at you with a proud smile before asking. “What is it? You need more? Want me to put my finger inside you, is that it?” 
 ——
 Steve smiles when she nods her head eagerly. So innocent, can’t even tell him what she wants. What she needs.
 He rubs on her clit a few more times to wet his fingers before lining a finger against her slit. He looks back at her as he starts pushing the finger in, slowing down when her hand grips her arm. 
 Steve groans at the tightness of her walls against his finger and starts to slowly pump it as he watches her face contort into a pleasured frown. When he feels her loosening up, he adds another finger that earns a low moan from her. Steve stiffens for a second when he feels his pants getting tighter in the crotch area. His cock is begging him for attention but he pays no mind, focusing on the angel in front of him.
 He spreads his fingers apart inside of her as he leans down to start flicking his tongue against her clit, smirking against it when her thighs shiver against his head. He feels her breaths starting to become uneven and he knows that she’s just about to cum so he doubles his effort, sucking her clit harshly and curling his fingers inside of her.
 Her back arches off the counter and Steve hooks an arm under her to pull her up and press her against his chest. She shakes against his hold as he helps her get through her high. She slumps against his hold, head falling down the side of his neck. 
 Steve tilts his head to look at her face, eyes hooded and forehead sweating. She looks so adorable like this. “That cake gave us such a rush, huh?” He chuckles before hooking her legs around his torso and hugging her body close to his. He feels her dozing off as he carries her to her bedroom. 
 He lays you down on the bed and tucks you under your blanket before studying your face. So peaceful. So relaxed. A smile forms on your face and Steve finds himself smiling as well.
 “Goodnight, my sweet little girl.” He presses a kiss on your forehead before walking out of your room. 
Tumblr media
  It’s currently four in the afternoon and Steve is currently sitting on a couch in the massive living room, thinking about the night he has planned for him and his little girl. 
 After that time in the kitchen, things have been great with them. It’s been a few months and he became someone he didn’t know he could be and it was all for her. He wants nothing but the best for his girl. He gives her the ‘special treatment’ or ‘reward’ whenever she asks for it. She’ll do something nice for him to receive his special kisses but Steve knew that he’ll give her anything without her working for it. He just likes the attention he gets from her when she gets a little needy.
 Steve feels his crotch stirring under his pants at the thought of eating his little girl out. He always eats her out and makes her putty with his fingers but his cock remains abandoned. 
 He didn’t think she was ready. He didn’t want to scare his girl. He’ll wait as long as he needs until his little girl’s ready for him. For the time being, he’ll make sure to keep his little girl happy and satisfied.
 Steve’s thoughts were cut off when his little girl walked in front of him with a weird look on her face, a phone held against her right ear. He sits up in attention, his body becoming alert at the way her face scrunches up in fear as she looks at him.
 “What’s wrong, little girl?” His voice is a whisper but his tone is hard. 
 She looks at him with a frown before handing him the phone. He looks at it and listens to her as she speaks.
 “Father called… Which is weird because he never calls when they’re on a trip. Let alone a business trip. He told me that the trip would be a few months and I didn’t think they would be in some kind of situation after being gone for almost seven months… They’re usually gone longer than that. But then that guy—” She points at the phone in Steve’s hand before continuing her explanation.
 “—That guy took the phone away from my father when he’s explaining something to me about telling something to you, Steve. His name is Rumlow and he’s got a very foul mouth—” He watches as her nose scrunches up, probably at the memory of the man’s words on the phone but Steve didn’t care about that. He’s worried about Rumlow talking to you. Through your father’s phone at that!
 Steve presses the phone against his ear before asking who’s on the other line.
 “Ahh, Rogers… Where’s the little brat? I thought she’s enjoying the things I’m promising her. Told her about how my cock will make her cunt cry—” Steve feels his blood boiling at the way Rumlow is talking about his little girl.
 “What are you on about, Rumlow? What are you doing with that phone?” Steve cuts Rumlow off, voice so harsh that he sees her flinching at his tone. He smiles at her before ushering her back to her room.
 “You see… Your girl is supposed to be mine. I saw her first but imagine the surprise I got when I ask her dear daddy for her hand and he tells me that she’s married to a Steve fucking Rogers.” Steve hears Rumlow’s bitter laugh before hearing her little girl’s father groan in pain, no doubt that he took a blow from Rumlow.
 “I just want a simple deal here, Rogers. I’ll text the address and I expect to have the girl and a bag filled with… I don’t know, ten million dollars? If you’re too broke then just bring the girl. I’m sure she’ll make the lack of ten million with her pretty little cunt.” Rumlows cackle was heard along with the cries of your parents. He must’ve held them as hostages. 
 “Do that and her parents stay safe. Be here at 9 pm sharp or it’s bye-bye for her lovely parents. Tik-Tok, Rogers. Tik-Tok…” Steve almost crushes the phone into pieces in his hand when Rumlow hangs up on him. Rumlow holds your parents as hostages and dares to speak about you like that. He’ll fucking kill him.
 The phone buzzes and he sees the address Rumlow sent him. They were no longer in Prague. They’re back here...
 Steve makes a move to call his best man, Bucky, when he hears sounds coming from her room. He quickly runs over, throwing her door open to see her shoving a bunch dollar bills into a huge bag while a phone is pressed against her neck and her shoulder. 
 Steve’s heart falls at the sight of tears falling down her face. She must’ve heard everything with the connecting phone lines. He sighs before walking over to his girl and steadying her by holding her shoulders in a firm grip. “Everything will be alright. I’ll call someone to fix the problem. They’ll clear the building, catch the bad guy, and then your parents will be home in no time!” Steve gives her a smile but it doesn’t work. Her face is still wet with tears as she shakes her head in disagreement.
 “No! The b-bad guy will harm my parents if he sees your men without me! I don’t w-want anything bad happening to my family, Steve. I-I don’t want that!” He pulls her against his chest as he sobs and shakes against his hold. Steve runs a comforting hand on her back before sighing in defeat. 
 “Fine. We’ll save your parents but I have to call my friends for backup. And you have to stay as far away from the fighting. I’ll have my best guy, James, be with you the whole time. You can trust him, he’s my best friend. You need to stick with him because he’ll keep you safe, got it?” He gives her a firm yet gentle look, jaw clenching when she nodded eagerly at him before continuing to fill the bag with cash. 
 He makes his calls and in no time, they’re driving towards the address Rumlow sent him.
Tumblr media
  Steve parks the car a few miles away from the building where her parents are being held as hostages. He looks at his little girl who’s currently wearing sweatpants and his hoodie which looks pretty big on her. He smiles at the sight before letting out a shaky breath. 
 “You gotta stay here, okay? I promise that I’ll get your parents out safely. You don’t have to worry about them because I’ll protect them for you, okay? You trust me, little girl?” He watches her as she reluctantly nods her head. He sighs at that before handing her a pistol gun. “You know how to use one?” He asks, surprised to see his little girl nod. She must’ve seen his surprised look because she looks down before explaining, “I had basic shooting lessons.”  He smiles at his little girl before nodding. 
 He gets out of the car before walking around and opening the door for his girl and helping her out. He sees James walking over to them and he nods at his friend in acknowledgment before looking back at his girl. “This is Bucky. He’ll keep you safe. Stick with him, alright?” He watches her girl as she observes his friend with her adorable curious eyes.  
 “The others are already surrounding the building. Backup is also ready. Just say something and they’ll attack. Good luck out there.” He smiles at Bucky’s words before kissing his girl’s forehead.
 “Please stay safe, Steve.” His girl mutters and he feels his heart skip a beat at that moment. “I will. Anything for you, little girl.” He turns to leave, hearing his girl one last time before disappearing. 
 “That’s a nice-looking vest, Mr. Bucky.”
Tumblr media
  Everything was going well for Steve. Rumlow’s men are really weak and easy to take down and when Rumlow realized that, he ran. He ran away like the coward he is. He ran out of the building and that was that. At least, that’s what Steve thought. 
 He was able to see her parents and he quickly untied them, her mother thanking him endlessly while her father only grumbled his thanks once. 
 He was guiding the couple out of the building, surprised to see his little girl standing a few miles away from them with Bucky. He sees her eyes brighten in relief that made all his worries disappear. 
 He was walking with her parents when he heard the cocking of a gun beside his head. 
 “Not so fast.” A raspy voice speaks beside him.
 Rumlow…
 Before Steve could even move, a bang was heard. Followed by another bang that has his ears ringing in pain. He closes his eyes to ease the aching in his head or his body. Was he shot? 
 His eyes fly open when he remembers that his girl is also out in the open and his eyes quickly darts over towards her.
 To his surprise, his girl is holding the gun he gave her earlier in his direction. 
 Steve quickly scans the couple near him for injuries when he hears someone groaning below him. He finds Rumlow laying on his back, legs bleeding while his arms are spread out. 
 He looks back at his girl, a sense of pride filling his system. His girl just did that. 
 He watches as his girl runs towards him with her arms wide open, ready to envelop him in a hug. 
 Steve grins before he hears Rumlow muttering and everything seems to be moving in slow motion. 
 “If I can’t have her… Then nobody can!” Rumlow spits before a loud bang go out.
 Steve’s eyes grow wide when he sees the bullet piercing through his hoodie and into his girl’s chest. 
 His heart stops when he sees her falling down into Bucky’s arms and onto the cold ground. 
 Her mother’s cries filled Steve’s ringing ears as well as her father’s curses as he tried to console his wife.
 Steve quickly kicks the gun from Rumlow’s hand before kicking the bastard’s face repeatedly until he’s unconscious. He releases all his anger on the bastard who shot his little girl by bending down and throwing punches down the unconscious man. He keeps punching until he sees Bucky carrying his girl towards them. 
 He pulls back from a bleeding Rumlow before running towards Bucky and taking his girl from his best friend. He brushes some stray hair away from her forehead before observing her face. 
 “Call the fucking ambulance!” He barks at nobody but Bucky follows his order, quickly fumbling with his phone and calling their mob doctor. 
 Steve was about to rip his hoodie off his girl when her eyes suddenly flew open, gasping for air. 
 Steve’s heart stops for a second, he doesn’t know if it’s from shock or relief but he’s grateful to see his little girl alive and breathing. He feels her wrap her arms around his neck, burying her face on the side of his neck as she catches her breath. He wraps his arm around her shaking body, gripping her tight and pulling her body against his like he’s afraid that she’ll slip away from his grasp.
 “Mother. Father. I’m so glad you’re okay!” He hears his girl talking to her parents who are currently behind him. He should let her go to reunite with her parents but he doesn’t. He keeps her against his body. 
 “Are you okay, dear?” Her mother asks and he feels his girl nodding against his neck. His girl finally pulls away from him before tugging on the hoodie she’s wearing and pulling it up to reveal a bulletproof vest. 
 Bucky’s laughter fills the air and everyone turns to look at him. “You little genius!” He exclaims before pointing at his little girl. “She kept bothering me about my vest and didn’t stop until I gave her one! Ah... You got yourself a keeper and a smartass, Steve!” He continues to laugh, her parents soon follow Bucky until everyone is laughing as well. 
 Everyone’s laughter is cut off by Rumlow waking up before gasping for air just like you were a few moments ago. 
 He pulls his girl against his chest, blocking her view from Bucky who gets his gun out before pointing it towards Rumlow’s head. 
 Steve covers his girl’s ears before another bang goes out. The last one for the night.
Tumblr media
  “I’m really fine, Steve. Dr. Banner said I was fine! No scars and all, see?” You pull your hoodie up to assure him. You watch him stare at your skin, probably looking for scars before he forces your hoodie down with a frown as he bites his lip. 
 “You can’t just pull your shirt up like that. People might see.” His hushed and commanding voice makes you gulp and nod apologetically. 
 You look around as he walks the both of you towards the lake. “But there’s nobody around, Steve.” You whisper, looking down at the dirt as you walk with him. 
 You feel his warm fingers under your chin before your head is tilted up so you’re looking directly up at him. “You really are a smartass, huh?” He smirks, feeling your body warm up against his hold before throwing his arm around your shoulders to continue walking.
 Steve holds you close as the both of you walk down the dock under the darkness of the night. He stops just at the end of the dock before turning to face you. 
 You admire his face, looking so enchanting under the light of the moonlight. “You remember the first time we met?” He asks, grinning at your embarrassed reaction which is you chewing your bottom lip. He caresses your face before running his thumb across your lips, stopping your teeth’s attacks on your lips.
 “How you’re taught to shoot a gun but not how to swim will always be a mystery.” He chuckles, smiling down at you and you watch him as he does just that. He’s just so pretty to look at.
 “You really scared me tonight, little girl…” His sad tone made your eyebrows shoot up in worry. “I-I didn’t mean to, Steve! I’m so sorry.” You frown at yourself but he brushes his fingers on the wrinkles you made between your eyebrows which makes you relax just a bit.
 “I was supposed to be the one protecting you. Not the other way around.” He lets out a sigh before looking at the water. “But thank you. Thank you for doing that. And for trusting me. I know you were a little hesitant with trusting me but you still did. So thank you for that. It means a lot.” Steve looks back at you and smiles. You feel your heart fluttering at his smile but it also breaks at his words. You wanted to tell him that he’s wrong but you are cut off by a bunch of lights.
 You gasp at the lights that start to flicker all around you. You do a slow full 360, looking at the trees that are covered with fairy lights, the side of the docks are covered with lights as well, and the darkness is soon replaced by a whole bunch of lights. Your heart starts to jump when you hear slow music playing in the background and it feels like every time you do a full 360 turn, something new presents itself. 
 Everything seems so magical, so pretty and so… Something straight out of the fairytale movies that you watch. 
 You turn to face Steve again only to find him gone. You frown before looking down to see him down on one knee, a red velvet box in his hand which he holds towards you.
 You feel yourself grinning with so much joy running through your system and you can’t help but to let out a squeal when the velvet box opens to reveal a very pretty diamond ring. 
 “Little girl… Will you make me the happiest man alive by marrying me?” He asks, uncharacteristically shy which makes you giggle. You start giggling more which makes Steve lick his lips as his eyes flash his nervousness. 
 “Steve, you’re so dumb.” You mumble through giggles. 
 “Huh?” Steve slowly stands up, looking at you with sad eyes.
 “We’re already married! We both signed the papers!” You point out the obvious, stopping your giggle fit before kissing him on the lips.
 “Don’t be sad, Steve… I accept your proposal… Even though we’re already married.” You giggle once more before letting him put the ring on you.
 He guides you until the both of you are sitting on the edge of the dock, feet dangling down the water.
 “I just wanted you to have a normal yet magical experience even just for a moment,” Steve whispers after a few minutes of silence.
 “That’s kind of useless.” You automatically say.
 “What? Why?” Steve feels his heart fall at your words. Is he doing this whole thing wrong?
 “I already feel like that whenever I’m with you.” You state, looking at him like it’s the most obvious thing in the world.
 Steve feels his heart beat an extra mile but he also feels relieved that he’s indeed doing it right. 
 You grin at the sight of Steve blushing in front of you. You never thought that the man who was so hard on you the first time you met was going to be a blushing mess in front of you right now.
 “Hey, Steve?” Your voice cuts the thin air and he looks at you with a raised eyebrow. “Yeah?”
 “You know how I saved your life earlier…” Steve smiles at your bashful expression that he finds so adorable.
 “Mhmm…” He nonchalantly hums.
 “Well… I was thinking…” You bite your lip in nervousness and embarrassment at the question you’re about to ask him.
 “What is it, little girl?” His voice is matched with a chuckle as he gives you a grin.
 “Can I have a reward for that?” You blurt out.
 Steve feels his cock stir in his pants at her words. He bites his lip before standing up and helping her up as well.
 “I’ll give you everything you want, little girl. It doesn’t have to be a reward. You ask for it, you get it, is that clear?” He gives you a questioning look before smiling when you nod eagerly at him.
 “Now, what is it that you want as a reward?” 
 ————-
He trails kisses from your forehead to your nose, nose to your cheeks, cheeks to your neck. He purposely skips your lips with a grin and starts feasting on your neck. He licks and sucks on a spot he knows too well, earning an adorable squeak from you when he teasingly bites on the skin. “S-Steve!” You gasp, hands going straight to his head, fingers sliding through his soft hair. He continues nipping on your neck until your head tilts back and a quiet moan escapes your lips.
 He pulls away to look at you and then smirks.
 “You want me to give you those special kisses for your rewards?” He cocks a brow before smiling when you nod your head eagerly at him. “Y-yes please.” 
 Steve wastes no time to pleasure you. His little girl.
 He dives for your glistening core and groans in pleasure at your taste. He uses his tongue to stimulate you through your clit, enjoying the way your body shakes under his hold.
 Steve listens to your moans and whimpers like a song and uses it as motivation to keep you a writhing mess under him. “Please, S-Stevie…” He hears you cry under him, reaching your hands towards his hands and pulling it closer to his face as he tongues your clit. 
 Steve chuckles at your needy behavior but complies, not missing the nickname leaving your lips. Anything for his little girl.
 Steve easily enters a finger into your wet core, groaning at your warmness and wetness before adding another finger. He sees your face contorting into a mix of pleasure and pain. Steve leans down to kiss your clit and flicks his tongue faster to distract you from the pain.
 “A-aah” He watches your eyes rolling back when he begins to spread his fingers inside you. Another finger enters and you’re crumbling against his fingers, walls closing around his fingers as you cum undone under him. He pulls away from you before reaching for your face and kissing you hungrily. He smiles against the kiss when he feels you return the kiss with the same hunger.
 He feels you pulling away and he lets you, frowning a little when he sees you looking at him timidly. His hand carefully reaches for your face, knuckles gliding down for cheeks smoothly. “What is it, little girl?” 
 He watches you bite your lip before looking at him with half-lidded eyes. “I w-want to give you special kisses too…” Steve freezes as he feels his cock getting harder than before. He feels your hands reaching for his member, giving him a look before gulping. “C-can you teach me? I want to make you feel good too…” 
 Steve doesn’t know which is beating harder; his cock or his heart, maybe both… Probably both. You do that to him. Only you. His little girl. 
 Steve finds himself gulping as well. “You don’t have to, litt—” 
 “I want to!” You’re quick to cut him off. Almost eager, he notices. He lets out a nervous laugh before nodding. “Okay, okay… I’ll teach you.” He doesn’t miss the way your eyes light up from his approval. He smiles at you before guiding your hands that’s currently holding his hard member.
 “Just do this gently…” He guides your hands up and down his shaft, head going crazy at the sight of your hands not being able to cover his huge cock. He bites his lip, willing himself to hold on and not cum on your hands so early.
 “C-can I kiss it now?” He looks down at you, sitting on the mattress as your innocent eyes look up at him while he stands on the ground. “Go ahead, little girl. Try it.” He encourages you, smiling when you press a quick kiss on his tip. His jaw clenches when you press another kiss, longer this time. 
 Steve’s eyes flutter when he feels your tongue dancing around his tip. You begin to lick along the shaft and then under, making Steve groan wantonly. 
 Steve lets out a frustrated huff when you quickly pull away from him. “I-I’m sorry. I was just doing what you did to me. I-I didn’t mean to hurt you!” Your eyes are teary and Steve realized that his moans made you think that you hurt him.
 He sighs before leaning down to your face, giving you an assuring smile before kissing your nose. “You didn’t do anything wrong, little girl. You’re doing everything right. In fact, you’re doing so great that my friend down there couldn’t help but to go wild under your touch.” He points at his member before grinning at your widened eyes.
 “I’m going to guide you. There’s no reason to be afraid. If you want to stop, just tap me and we will stop. We don’t have to do this if you don’t want to, okay?” He waits for your response and lets out a breath of relief when you nod.
 He stands back up, putting your hands on his behind and guiding your face just in front of his cock. “Open wide, little girl.” He sings and grins when you do as told. He holds the back of your head but never pushes you, leaving you to go at your own pace.
 You push yourself forward, taking him halfway before pulling back and pushing yourself back to him. His moans of pleasure push you to do more so you do. You swirl your tongue on his tip as you bob your head, smiling at the loud moan that leaves his lips. 
 “You little tease…” He breathes out, his grip on your head getting tighter but not enough to hurt you. He feels the vibration of your laughter on his cock and he lets out another cry of pleasure.
 Feeling confident with yourself, you push yourself forward until his tip hits the back of your throat, making you gag.
 He helps you as you pull away from him, looking down at you with his flushed face. He studies your face, eyes shadowed with lust, making his heart do somersaults. He wipes the tears on your face before saying, “Breathe through your nose, okay?” He watches you nod and chuckles when you go back for his cock, taking him deep at a slow pace and staying there for a second before pulling slightly away. “That’s my good girl…” He moans as you continue to take him, teasing his tip with your tongue when he suddenly pulls you away from him.
 “Did I—” He cuts you off with a kiss, groaning against your lips and pushing you until you’re lying on your back with him on top of you. “You did great. I just want my cum somewhere else…” He catches your lips when you bite on them, his tongue pushing its way into your mouth.
 He pulls away, guiding your body until he’s kneeling between your thighs, one hand on his cock while the other is on your thigh. “Is this okay?” He asks when he places the tip of his cock on your slit.
 You gingerly nod, whimpering when he slides his cock on your sensitive clit. “P-please…” You have no idea what you’re begging for but he seems to know what he’s doing. 
 “Do you trust me, little girl?” Steve asks, looking at your face with hopeful eyes.
 “Yes, Stevie. I trust you.” Steve’s heart warms up at how fast you answered his question. He nods before sliding a few more teasing thrusts into your folds and clit before slowly sliding his tip into your slit. He stops to look at your face that’s contorted into a frown. He leans down your face to kiss your frown away and kisses your lips as well, hoping to distract you from the pain. 
 Steve pushes his cock deeper when he feels you relax under him. He pushes slowly and stops when he’s fully in, groaning when your walls hug his member tightly. “Fuck!” He hisses before looking at you. “You okay?” He asks, smiling when you nod at him, eyes closed. He kisses your lips before pulling halfway and thrusting into you once more, earning a little whimper from you.
 “How are you feeling, baby?” You try to ignore the nickname, opening your eyes and looking straight at his eyes. “G-good. Please move, Stevie.” You press your palms against his chest. He pulls halfway out before shoving himself inside you again, repeating this action until you’re moaning loudly under him and clutching his biceps for support.
 Steve feels your walls fluttering around him, alarming him that you’re close. He knows he’s close as well so he helps you reach your peak by rubbing your clit with his fingers, groaning at how your walls tighten around him.
 Steve listens to your cries of pleasure as your walls clamp down on his cock as you cum, making him cum as well and milking him. Your body shakes under him and both of you breathe heavily as you try to catch your breath. He falls to your side, his arms enveloping around you to pull you against his chest into a warm and strong embrace.  
 “It’s official. We just consummated our marriage... I’m all yours just as much as you’re all mine.” He stares at your face, watching your eyes as you fight yourself from falling asleep.
 “I fucking love you, little girl.” He lazily says, brushing your face with his fingers. You stare at him sleepily, listening to the beat of his heart.
Tumblr media
  “The fuck is he doing?” Your father grumbles as he watches Steve prance around the kitchen.
 “He’s making our daughter breakfast. I think our daughter broke him.” Your mother snickers at the way your father looks at Steve in disbelief. 
 “You tellin’ me that he touched Y/N?!” Your father fumes, getting ready to walk up to the man in the kitchen before your mother stops him.
 “Oh, hunny. Would you stop that? They’re married. And Y/N is an adult. They both are. They can do anything they want. And I can see that Steve really loves our daughter. The way he acted after Y/N got shot. Not to mention the part where he literally saved our asses. Your ass.” Your mother berates your father who just huffs in response before leaving. Your mother chuckles before following her husband, ready to give him a piece of her mind.
Tumblr media
  “You made cookies without me?” Steve’s heart flutters as you pout at him. “I want to make cookies too…” You mumble under your breath. You just woke up from your sleep when Steve entered the room with a plate full of cookies.
 “I didn’t want you getting into any accidents, little girl.” Steve chuckles when you take one cookie before grumpily munching on it. He watches as your eyes light up before covering it up with a frown. “Will you stop calling me little girl?”
 “Never.” He simply says. You huff and Steve couldn’t help but to chuckle at your cuteness.
 “Your cookies aren't even that good. I make better cookies.” You mumble before taking another cookie from the plate and munching on it. Steve raises an eyebrow at you before shaking his head. “I know you do, little girl. I know you do.” He smiles at you before making a move to sit beside you. 
 “No! Wait! Stay there.” You point a finger at him before fumbling around the sheets as if looking for something. 
 “You okay?” Steve asks, eyes shooting open when you jump out of the bed to stand in front of him, only the sheets covering your body. You realize this and quickly pull on the hoodie from last night before looking back at Steve with a grin.
 “Hi,” You start, earning a confused look from Steve. “Hello?” He chuckles when you look at him with so much excitement that you’re literally bouncing on your toes.
 “I want to give you something.” 
 “What is it?” Steve watches your fist as you hold it against his face before opening it, revealing a gold ring that looks to be vintage or a hundred years old.
 “Where’d that come from, little girl?” Steve whispers.
 “Can I put it on you? Will you marry me too?” You ignore his question, too excited to listen to anything. Steve laughs before nodding, watching you with adoration as you giddily put the ring on him. 
 “There! So pretty! You’re so pretty, Stevie!” You continue to admire the ring on his finger when he takes your chin with said hand, making you look up at him. 
 “Thank you, little girl.” He leans down to press a kiss on your lips before pulling away with a smile.
 “My father gave it to me.” You blurt out, making Steve’s eye widen just a bit. 
 “Your father?” He asks, not sure about what’s happening.
 “Yes. He came here earlier. Told me that you deserve the ring and that you should never make him regret anything?” Steve listens to you, you obviously don’t know what your father did but it’s enough for Steve to understand.
 “Oh… And Stevie?” He looks at you, smiling and asking you if you need something.
 “I love you too.” You grin at him.
 Steve stares at you for a moment before feeling tears sliding down his cheeks.
 He makes a quick move towards you, pulling you in a tight embrace and pampering your face with kisses.
 “I love you, little girl. Thank you for saying it back.” He mumbles against your hair before pressing a kiss on your lips once more.
 “Stop calling me little girl!” You grumble against him.
 He only chuckles at you before shaking his head. “No. You’ll always be my little girl.”

The Little Bee
Fandom: Ikesen
Pairings: Nobunaga  x Reader
Genre: Fluffffff
Words: 1400+
Comments: Eeeeep whoop whoop! Kame's birthday! Happpppy birthday! eeep! Happy birthday@kamesama Happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Kame la da dee dooo! The cutest little bee of all, wishing ya the best day❤❤ ❤😳🥺 Hehee hope you eat way more cake and candy than you probably should! 🥺😳Love ya loooooooots and lots❤🌈
.*:・’゚:。.*:゚・’゚゚:。’ .*:・’゚:。.*:゚・’゚゚:。’・゚。.*:・’゚: 。.*:・’゚:。.*:゚・’゚゚:。
You awoke that morning not to the quiet morning cuddles and kisses you were accustomed to, but to a morning filled with chaos— not that you minded a little chaotic energy, being the leading supplier of that— but still. From the moment your eyes fluttered open, you had been pulled from one direction to the next, neither leading to the warm, strong arms of the man you loved— Nobunaga.
A dejected sigh left your lips; he promised to spend the day of your birth with you, yet where was he now? No doubt he too was dragged away at dawn to deal with the madding admin part of ruling the world, much like you were now being drawn from bed to do some menial tasks.
You accepted your fate reluctantly; after all, there was little use for moping around, mourning the loss of your morning cuddles. Especially when the warlords were breaking down your door trying to get your attention.
Ooh, what you would give for an energy drink— vitamin B shot— Espresso— pretty much any form of liquid energy that didn't include the vial substance Nobunaga managed to secure as a caffeine substitute from the Western traders. As much as you appreciate your boyfriend's efforts, no amount of matcha tea could give the same buzz and hype as your beloved energy drinks.
Nevertheless, you let yourself be dragged off to help solve problem after problem— slightly grumpy for not having the time to enjoy said vial caffeine substitute, and the opportunity to wake up slowly and enjoy the sight of the rising sun.
Hideyoshi was the first victim subjected to your grumpy edge, being the one to throw open your door moments after you called out to the other side. With an apologetic smile, he put you to work, thus starting your daily duties.
Thrusting a bag of coins in your hands with the instruction to buy more sugary candies— you smirked at him knowingly; he must have discovered the aftermaths of the nightly raid. "Sure," was all you said with a shrug and flick of the wrist. You were positive that this menial task and early morning wake up call was revenge for the nightly heists.
Bag of diabetes secured, you started taking a slow stroll back to the castle, only to be swept off your feet by hurricane Masamune. Ahh, your chaotic brother in arms, of course, you welcomed the bit of excitement after the boring market trip. And excitement he brought, as it wasn't long before the two of you raced through the plains engaged in some friendly competition. High stakes and high reward just the way you liked it.
With cocky smiles and beaming eyes, you looped back to the stables riding like the wind and securing your sweet, sweet victory. "Masa, my man, I believe we had a deal," came your ever-growing smirk and outreached hand.
"You drive a hard bargain kitten, but fair is fair," he grinned like a wildcat, pulling the imitation sour patch candies from his sleeve— although something in the way his blue eyes beamed gave him away. He let you win— and he knew that you knew, that he knew, although before you could challenge him and make yet, another friendly wager, the resident sunshine came skipping up the cobblestone path toward the stables.
"Ah, I've been looking for the two of you," he beamed in pure, unfiltered sunshine.
"What's up, sunshine," you chirped, throwing a handful of the sour candies in your mouth and pulling your face involuntarily at the taste. Masamune had done wonders perfecting the recipe, striking that perfect balance between sweetness and sourness with the perfect amount of tart kick.
This is how you now found yourself at the kitsune dubbed snakes home, finally able to enjoy your first warm beverage of the day. The banter and teasings were the same as always— flung into every direction, and floating like a cloud over the head of the innocent Mitsunari.
It wasn't before long that a summons had arrived, demanding the boys' attendance at the nightly war council— an invitation that naturally extended to you, albeit more of a command to attend than a suggestion.
You hung back as the other warlords entered the room before you. You felt a little disgruntled, not by the fact that your birthday had been forgotten but rather over the fact that you had not seen Nobunaga for three days now. Up before dawn and back well after dusk— long after your dreams had stolen you away for the night. With a sigh, you plaster a smile onto your lips and open the door to be greeted by the mighty cheers and happy birthday wishes.
And in the centre of the festivities, only one stood out to you; only one could draw in your gaze like a moth to a flame. "Fireball, come", his low voice rumbled with an easy smirk on his face as he stretched out his hand towards you.
He didn't even have to ask you twice as you crossed the room in an instant and deposited yourself straight into his lap. His arms closed around your waist, pulling you impossibly closer and touched his lips to your forehead. You let go of a contented hum finally in the arms of the man you loved the most.
"I missed you, fireball," he spoke, red-eyes gleaming with affection. His expression soft and loving as he leaned down to nuzzle his nose with yours.
"I missed you too," came your reply, followed by a playful nibble of the tip of his nose, causing a roar of laughter to erupt from his chest. The two of you were in a world of your own, utterly unbothered by the banquet happening around you.
"I have something for you, my little bee," he spoke up once more, lips forming a wide smirk.
"Oh?" your eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Close your eyes," he commanded, calloused hands coming up to cup your cheeks. His carmine eyes gazed into yours, waiting for eyes to flutter shut— instead you stared back at him challenging, before his impatience got the better of him, moving his hands over your eyes.
Once the flutter of your lashes was felt, marking the telltale signs of eyes being sealed shut, he reached behind him to retrieve the birthday parcel. Carefully examining your face to ensure the surprise would go unseen for a few moments more, he gently placed it down on your lap.
"Can I open now?" you asked with an impatient excitement.
"Yes, open," he wore a satisfied smirk, chin tilted in the air with confidence. You wasted no time as you quickly opened the parcel, and when you saw the contents inside your breath caught in your throat. You lifted the matching black kimono to spot the delicate detailing of tiny bees between the spider lilies. It was then that you noticed, he, too, was wearing a new Hoari, littered with matching bees. Your heart melted at the sight.
The silence from you made him fidget, head tilting to the side and smug smile faltering for a brief moment as he spoke with a tinge of uncertainty, "I trust this gift pleases you."
Despite the cold rumours surrounding the man, you knew better. You knew the real Nobunaga, the boyish and at times childishly silly man he was.
A bright and brilliant grin made its way to your face as you threw your arms around his neck in a crushing embrace— relief flooded his chest— nose nuzzling into the crux of his throat before scattering kisses and playful nibbles to his sensitive neck, jaw until finally lips. He flinched at the sensation, and your grin widened, knowing precisely what you had done.
"I see my fireball is as bold as ever to launch such a stealthy attack," his hands roving over the curves of your body to find the places you were most ticklish, to return the attack in kind. It wasn't long before a flurry of laughter erupted from you." Nobee-naga! Stop!" came the breathless laughs.
He ceased his attack and raised a brow at the new nickname given, "No-bee-na-ga", he repeated slowly.
"Yes, Nobeenaga!" you exclaimed once more, exuding confidence, "the cutest bee of all," you concluded, throwing your arms around him and lacing your hands behind his neck.
He smirked, a dusting of pink rising to his cheeks at the new nickname given. "You're the cutie," he repeated the endearment learned a few days prior. Before you could continue your playful banter, he caught your lips in a final kiss before standing up with you in his arms.
"Now, I believe I promised to spend the evening with my little bee," his husky voice whispered in your ears, sending shivers down your spine as he carried you to your shared room to celebrate the remainder of your birthday to the fullest.

A little birthday ramble for my favourite jean man~
It’s my favourite characters birthday??? Woah! That means I gotta try and actually make something-
So here, have this rather rushed birthday edgejeanist ramble for my favourite lanky jeanist because I love them too much.
Tagging: @chaotic-trash-can @kouricaesar @kiriderp @theshisthings @chiggersmcnuggies :)
TW: none! It’s fluff!
*buzz*
Tsunagu blinked slowly, his eyes adjusting to the morning light as he woke up to see two silver eyes staring straight back at him.
*buzz buzz*
“Good morning~” A familiar voice cooed.
Startled by the sudden greeting, the blond man grumbled and opened his eyes to see Shinya facing him, head perched in his hands as he smiled at his sleepy husband.
*buzz*
“Hm.....good morning....” Tsunagu mumbled, stretching his arms out and plopping them back down over the duvet.
*buzz*
“What....uhhh.....buzzing...huh?”
The silver haired man chuckled slightly at the other man’s confused expression. “Messages, love. It’s 7am. A rather special day, too, might I add~”
A rather special day?
What?
Was he missing something?
Tsunagu now felt even more confused than before as he laid there trying to piece things together.
“Wha-” he started, before being interrupted by Shinya letting out a loud laugh and pulling him into a big hug. “-hmmph?”
“Hahah! Ahhh, you are so stupid in the mornings, I love you so much hahaha~” The smaller man snickered as he buried his face into the crook of his husbands neck.
The still-very-confused giraffe blinked. “Did- did you just call me stupid?!”
“Heheh...”
“Oi!” Tsunagu pouted, blushing slightly at the sound of Shinya’s adorable laughter. “Don’t make fun of me......I’m really confused, I don’t know what’s happening, and I’m worried now that I’m missing something very important-”
Shinya simply chuckled and rolled his eyes in response to Tsunagu’s weary mumbles.
“Yes, dear~”
Yawning loudly, Tsunagu slowly sat up and started to gather his thoughts. Did he have work today? Or was it his day off? He wasn’t sure. But he could definitely tell he was missing something.
“Love?”
“Hm?” Shinya hummed inquisitively as he also propped himself up, hooking his arms around Tsunagu’s waist and resting his head on the other man’s shoulder.
“What....what day is it?”
Shinya smiled and let out a small sigh.
“Tuesday!” He exclaimed brightly, his eyes sparkling mischievously as he toyed with his partner’s confused morning brain.
“Ah.....wait, no, I mean the date. ‘Cause it might- oh come on, Shinya, stop-” Tsunagu huffed, realising the smaller man’s intentions to mess with him even more than he already was. That little sneaky ninja....
Shinya simply chuckled at the taller man’s response and slid off the side of the bed, making his way to go and get ready for the day. “Heh...it’s the 5th of October....ring any bells?”
The 5th of October????
The 5th of October........
“Ah!” Tsunagu jumped up, accidentally startling the other man with his sudden enthusiasm. “It’s my sister’s birthday!!!”
Wow.
Shinya stood there for a moment before bursting into laughter, though trying very hard to stifle it. ‘Oh my god he’s a fucking idiot-’
Tsunagu blinked. “W-why are you laughing?”
The silver haired man shook his head and tried to keep a straight face, thinking incredibly hard about his response before simply settling with a small, “it took ya long enough!”, before turning to head out of the bedroom.
“I’m phoning Ai, gonna pester her until she answers me- wait, where are you going?” Tsunagu questioned, rapidly unlocking his phone and dialling his sister’s number while managing to completely ignore the various messages and notifications that he had received.
“Ahh, it’s getting kinda late, I need to go and wake Izumi up for school, I have work, and I’m pretty sure you have a morning patrol, do you not?” Shinya scratched the back of his neck as he made his way out the door. “Make sure ehe- ahEm- make sure to tell her happy birthday for me!”
“Ah....yeah you have a point....okay then.”
Tsunagu looked down at the phone, making sure it was ringing, and waited for it to be answered.
*click*
“Hello?”
“Hey, dumbass, happy birthday!! Hope you have a great day, love you lots!” Tsunagu sang down the phone, showing no hesitation to greeting his beloved sibling.
“Thanks, you lanky shit, happy birthday to you too! Sending love from all of us, have a great day yourself!” Ai chirped in reply. “Don’t get lost on patrol this time either, stupid, last time we waited for hours at mom’s for you to finally show up.”
Tsunagu blinked. What was that? “Happy birthday to me too?”
“Huh?”
That’s when he finally fully woke up and actually realised what a literal dumbass he was being. A massive idiot. No wonder why Shinya was acting so smug and snickering to himself earlier.
“Oh my fucking god-” Tsunagu covered his face with his hands as he wallowed in his own embarrassment. “Ai, I’m a fucking idiot, it’s my birthday isn’t it?”
The line went silent for about ten seconds before the woman on the other side erupted into fits of laughter.
“OH MY GOD!!! HAHAHA THAT IS FANTASTIC-”
“Ai...”
“AHAHA TSU FORGOT- AHAHAhA-”
“Ai, stop, it’s my birthday-”
“OUR birthday! You somehow remembered that it was mine and forgot that it was yours as well- we’re TWINS Tsunagu, we have had the same birthday for over 37 years!! Hahaha~”
“Yeah, yeah, okay, whatever....” the blond man sheepishly muttered as he continued to hide his face in shame. This was going to be a long day...
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
After what seemed like a while of embarrassment and one-sided laughter, Tsunagu ended up hanging up and threw his phone to the side, huffing as he tried to shake off how embarrassed he felt.
He sat thinking about the day ahead of him for a little while before noticing some hushed whispers and muffled laughter coming from behind the door.
Smiling to himself slightly at how adorable his husband and daughter were, he rolled his eyes, laughing as he opened the door to reveal two sneaky silver haired troublemakers staring up at him with big mischievous eyes.
“Gotcha~” Tsunagu sang, reaching down to tickle Izumi under the chin playfully.
“Wahhhh!! He caught us!!!” The small child exclaimed, giggling as she jumped into her fathers arms. “Happy Birthday, dad!!”
“Oh, why thank you, sunshine!” The blond man happily responded, twirling his daughter around as he exchanged a soft gaze with his partner, who was now leaning against the door frame with a cup of warm tea.
“So you finally remembered? Got that old brain woken up finally~~” Shinya teased, a sly grin spread across his face.
Tsunagu chuckled. “Hey now, you’re only a few years younger than me y’know! And I’m only a year older than I was yesterday, leave me be!”
“Ahh, sorry sorry~”
“You better be. You weren’t any help this morning when I was oh so lost and confused! Laughing at me, unbelievable!”
“Papa said you were very silly and forgot your birthday!” Izumi chimed in, sticking her tongue out at her taller dad as he ruffled her hair.
“Did he now?” Tsunagu raised an eyebrow as he looked back up at Shinya.
“Noooo......” the sly ninja pouted, winking at their daughter in a very over exaggerated manner.
“I see.....”
Sharing plenty of mischievous joy, the three of them laughed and headed downstairs to get ready for the day.
Watching as their child whizzed around gathering all of her school items, the two parents stood silently together, smiling at Izumi’s enthusiasm as she twirled around.
Shinya wrapped his arm around Tsunagu and looked up at the taller figure gently as he felt the other return the same action, smiling as he felt his face heat up, ever so slightly, and familiarly.
“Happy birthday, hon.” The smaller figure said as he leant into his husband’s warm embrace. “Love you.”
Tsunagu sighed happily in response, feeling his heart flutter slightly as he looked down at his small husband, before leaning down and pecking Shinya’s forehead and smiling as he rested his head gently on top of his. “Thank you, dear.”
“Love you too.”

You Like Me Not?
{ Part 2 }
Tumblr media
Go Read ; { Part 1 }
Pairings : Takami Keigo ( Hawks) x Reader
Writing Style : 3rd Person
Warning : Mild Cussing, Stalker Tendencies.
Word Count : 1370
3rd Person's POV
" Seriously? You got a whole collection of Fantasy and Legacies?! " Kirishima gasped as his eyes gleamed with excitement; gazing at y/n who was kind enough to bail him out if the video game store he was in--- correction. They were in.
Earlier that Day; y/n was planning on buying a new game to her Liking since the last few days were spent rather freely with more time to relax and be lazy. For some reason but she's still suspicious to what her teacher is actually planning but hey, who says no to Free time? Especially Sundays.
And in that very shop she had spotted her Classmate; Kirishima who was in a pickle with the store's Manager because he had accidentally knocked over a shelf and destroyed 2 video games.
Poor Kirishima didn't carry enough money with him today to pay for the games he had accidentally destroyed and now it resulted to the shop manager angrily nagging Kirishima.
The look on his face looked so miserable y/n couldn't help but give her Classmate a Hand.
After all, Kirishima was one of the nice ones in the dorm and the two pretty much shared a close sibling like bond. So after y/n offered to pay for it. Kirishima didn't even try to hide his Joy and immediate hauled y/n to ride his shoulder and came out of the store with her riding his shoulders while parading with so much happiness it was contagious.
Now after awhile of the two teenagers laughing and 'celebrating' Kirishima had finally calmed down with y/n still riding his shoulders. The two kept up casual conversations like they would normally do in the dorms while ignoring the stage looks people passing by were giving the two.
" Yeah. I wasn't really intrested in that one at first but After playing the second series it got me hooked " Y/n replied placing her hand on Kirishima's head as the male continued walking.
" Are you kidding!? That Game was so Manly I could play it forever! " Kirishima's wide grin was urging y/n to smile along with him.
Having a friend like Kirishima was very refreshing he took her mind off of things. He's always so positive and cheerful he could shift her mood almost immediately.
" Heh, well if you'd like to hang in my room to play that game I wouldn't mind. I'd bet all my game collection that I'd beat you in the combat phase "
" Is that a challenge!? Because I'll accept it! Real men never back out from a challenge! "
" Yeah, yeah whatever sunshine but you're gonna have to pay me back with your time so I could beat you in video games "
" Hah! Only if you can y/n-chan"
" Oh I'd bet on it sunshine---"
" Well, well, well. What do we have here "
The pair paused in their tracks when a specific winged Hero had landed in front of them. A smug look on his face but his eyes held ferocity and dominance; the type of eyes you'd see from a Male Animal that had his Mate stolen.
" It's the No. 2 Hero Hawks! " Kirishima was unaware or more like oblivious to the deadly gaze Keigo was throwing him.
Keigo's eyes drifted to Kirishima's hands which were holding onto y/n's thighs, if you look at it in a different perspective it just looked like Kirishima was holding onto y/n'd thighs to keep her in place but in Keigo's eyes; He was asking for Death.
" Look y/n! It's Hawks "
" Yeah... I'm well aware of that Kiri " Y/n gave out a quiet sigh turning her head to face away from The Hero.
The lack of emotion from her tone as well as her expression which showed dislike after Seeing Keigo felt like a stab to the side. Keigo's Frustration began to rise but with his impeccable control of his actions and facial expression it was hard to see it that way .
" Well, someone's a bit Moody. Aren't you Happy to see me? After I came all the way here myself to say Hi to you? " Keigo smirked; masking his frustrations with a carefree smile.
" I don't know. Should I be Happy to see you? I think you got the wrong person. Sure I know you, you're the No. 2 hero bit that's it. I don't think I know you in a personal level " Y/n who finally had the guts to face him gave him a small and innocent smile .
Kirishima was slightly confused by their exchange of words was speechless and felt a little awkward.
" Ahh, so we're playing the ' I don't Know You' game. Well I advise you to stop because... It's not the least bit appeasing me at all Little Bird " Keigo stroked his chin; cocking his head to the side.
" Who said I'm doing this to appease You? Nevermind. Kiri let's go " Y/n looked down and gave a pleading look to Kirishima; the type of look where she looked like a dying puppy asking for help.
Kirishima got the message and he genuinely did not like to see a close friend of his in a tight spot Kirishima wanted to help like she did with him. He sensed how tense y/n was and the discomfort on her face was a good enough reason for him to flee.
" Hey y/n didn't Aizawa Sensei say he had something to discuss to us about the upcoming test we were going to have? "
" We did? --- oh yeah right. That, silly me I forgot. Let's go before sensei scolds us " Y/n awkwardly followed his lead and before she knew it; Kirishima was already jogging past Hawks while bidding him goodbye.
Y/n who was being carried away gave a small sigh of relief; she took the chance to glance back and what she saw nearly gave her a heart attack.
It was Hawks; Flying fast towards them with immense speed.
" Kiri Duck! "
" Duck!? Where? "
" No! I mean get Down! Now!--- ahh! " Y/n screamed in fright when she was torn away from Kirishima, Keigo's hands were tighty gripping onto her arms .
Keigo hovered above the ground by a few meters before gently placing her feet back on the ground and jolted back to the sky leaving the two teens stunned and confused.
" What the hell? Y/n are you Ok? "
" Huh? What? Oh I mean yeah... Yeah I'm fine...Why'd he do that though "
" I don't know.... I thought maybe you'd know why he reacted like that "
Meanwhile :
Keigo was seething with anger and jealousy combined. Who knew karma was doing such a great job at biting back his ass like a bitch.
He knew something was up when she didn't show up at his agency, and the day after that and the fucking day after that.
It took a lot of convincing and talking to himself like a mentally decayed crazy person telling himself that;
' she's just mad and she'll eventually come back here like usual'
And today he decided to embrace his creepy inner self and began stalking her. Yes a hero stalking a Little girl like an obsessive maniac isn't something he's proud of but he couldn't help it. If he can't see her today he might go mad and resort to...... Kidnapping.
And to his utter surprise when she finally cake out of the store; she was being intimate and riding the shoulder of another fucking male. Getting chummy and laughing together like .... Like well... Like they're Together.
It took every single fiber of his being from directly ripping her away from that red headed mongrel. He felt so threatened. Like she'd be snatched away any minute now.
The reason why he stole her away from that boy for a second was simple. He didn't like seeing her being touchy feely with another man.
Gods have mercy on the villain Hawks was going to encounter today; he needs to vent and it's gonna get Bloody.
...... To be continued

The screen flashes on with a brief scuffling sound from the microphone, accompanied by the shadow of whoever it was holding it, the camera facing directly down toward a dark red floor for a moment, with the barest tip of a gold and black tail in the bottom corner. Finally, the screen flips over to display Sir Pentious’s face, eyes narrowed toward the camera for a split second only for his concentrated expression to flip into a large, fang filled grin.
“Ahh, ssssuccesss!”
He pauses to clear his throat for a moment, the hand not holding up the phone moving to adjust his hat atop his head and straighten his bow tie before it drops from view.
“Greetings, wretched ssssinners that dare to grace my presence on this strange little app! For I am Ssssir Pentious, and I am here to engage with you and your little collection of blogs that have begun popping up all over the place on my dashboards, for my entertainment asss well as yours! You see, I am offering up the chance for you, all of you, to assssk me any quesssstions your feeble little hearts may desire!”
He pauses for a moment, as if in dramatic effect, smiling toward the camera as if he had just bestowed a massive honor upon anyone watching. His tail can briefly be seen swishing back and forth behind him, like a smug cat.
“Yesss, yes, I know, quite the generoussss sort that I am. I do sssso look forward to whatever fassscinating questions you offer for me. I’m sure that plenty of them will be quite entertaining. However…”
He leers a touch closer to the screen, eyes briefly glowing an ominous red, a dull grey forked tongue flickering out between his sharp fangs as he does so.
“If they prove to not be worth my time in the sssslightest, if you choossse to waste my time with silly little jokesss or ill fated attemptssss at prankssss, then I shall take great pleasure in tracking you down and reducing your abode to cindersssss.”
He punctuates his last hiss with a sharp snap of his hood, eyes glowing even brighter as his smile widens to eerie levels, displaying every tooth he possesses while the tips of his hood visibly shake in an ominous fashion, creating a loud rattling much like that of a diamondback. He pulls away with a sharp cackle, head tipping back in malicious glee, and with a click, the screen goes black.

4/15-16/2021
((THIS IS SO LATE — I blame the incoming exams))
Okay, wow! These two days were PACKED with moments!! I’ll try to give an overall summary of the ones I’m thinking most about. Super hard to pick which ones to write here!! 😳😳
Apologies in advance for the super long post once again! I just get carried away with these things.
||||||||||||||||||||||||
I was assigned to play something for W one morning before school. I was pretty nervous about it, so I decided to arrive thirty minutes before my time slot to give me time to practice.
After I stopped and got my stuff together to go inside, I noticed that a stunning vehicle was moving up to the left of me. It slowly rolled through the rows of other vehicles until it found an open parking space. The car then began to adjust so it could park trunk-first into the open spot.
I looked inside the wonderful car as it was almost done moving backwards, and I could not believe what I saw. Another pair of eyes were already looking at me....and they were W’s.
He seemed to share the same bewildered expression as my own. We stared at each other for two seconds until I forced my head away from his direction. I allowed myself to think.
Just then, I processed how I had arrived the same time W did. I wasn’t sure why, how, or what caused this coincidence, but I was sure that I was going nuts over it. Haha. Maybe the universe was scheming.
I called out to W as he traveled towards the door, asking him when it was okay for me to come in. He replied with a sweet tone and an even sweeter smile. “You can come in whenever you want!!”
I thanked him, got my stuff together, and sped to the (now open) door, all while remaining a good distance away from him.
~~
Flash forward to playing the music for W. It was definitely something, let me tell you that much.
He walked in and shut the door behind him before turning his head around. “Hey R!!” He quickly shot me a wild look. “Are you ready?”
I scoffed at his jubilant attitude— which he mocked for a bit— and then got started after answering some minor questions he asked about the piece.
Having W standing behind me as I played was terrifying. 😂 I could see him clearly through the reflection of my instrument, and it was VERY hard to focus because of this.
He was moving along with the piece and taking it in the whole time. It was like he flowed with the piece, essentially. Whenever I would make a mistake, he would freeze and kind of snap back into reality.
On the subject of messing up, he stopped me quite a bit during random segments of the song to give out extra tips he had. Every time he would do this, he would step up and lean forward to the right of me. My head would be at just about the level of his chest.
This close proximity revealed to me that W’s breath smells sweet, and slightly of mint. <3 Especially when he‘d sing to me.
He sang a lot of my parts when giving feedback, and these examples, perfect or not, demonstrated what he wanted. As much as I really do adore his singing voice, 90% of the time he couldn’t hit ANY of the correct notes.
He said I was making fun of his singing voice because I was laughing so much. Really though, I was only laughing at how close we were, his volume, his expression, his dramatic dynamic range, his notes that were WAY off . . . okay. Maybe I was making fun of him just a little bit.
When we were finished, he stopped abruptly at the door and praised me right before leaving the room. “Great job, R!”
I smiled and quickly said I didn’t mean to make fun of his singing. He stopped slightly and replied, “MMmm suure, it’s fine!” before popping out to continue doing his work.
I love it when he says my name in a positive light. It’s really special to me.
||||||||||||||||||||||||
Instead of helping A as I would usually do earlier in the day, I got to assist W this time. As you have probably guessed, there are quite a few things that happened. Kind of hard to choose what to put here. 😳
I sat down on a chair next to the kids W was teaching to play along with them as an example sound. W seemed to really love having his gaze linger on mine when he signaled the other tubas to play alongside me.
At one point, he repeatedly shot long, focused glances at me when everyone was playing as a group. I met his look with a challenging one, and he seemed hesitant, as if he wanted to say something.
There were slight moments he looked away to cue others in, but most of the time his eyes were on me. I considered setting my instrument down in case he didn’t want me to play, but I pushed the idea to the side.
When we finished the rep, he told me to help someone with one of their stands, as it was falling down. I suppose I knew then why he looked at me, but I couldn’t help but wonder.
Why would he stare so long to ask me something so simple?
Two other memorable things that popped up during this period took place when W began telling his instrument jokes. He told a tuba joke that had a silly punchline making fun of the little notes tubas would stereotypically play.
I laughed pretty loudly at this despite hearing it from him two to three times before, and he gazed at me with a grin. “R’s laughing because she knows it’s true.” “Ye(hehe)ah,” I chuckled a little more and returned his look with additional nods.
Soon afterwards, he began to ramble. He mentioned that the tubas should get used to seeing while notes because this was basically their “whole life”. This ridiculous but true statement made me smile and shake my head to myself.
W THEN MOCKED ME A SECOND TIME. “R’s like—” he mimicked a person laughing, which gradually turned into crying. (His acting was actually on point though, both vocally and expressively.) I began to cackle excessively because of the imitation.
When the end of class arose and the bell rang, I stayed behind to help make sure the students packed up and left on time. Of course, in exchange, this cost me my own time, which, in hindsight, I should have thought more about in the moment.
I left the room to check if the kids in another area needed help for any reason, then came back to retrieve my stuff so I could leave.
Just in time, when I was walking back towards the entrance of the main band room, W was making his way to walk out. Our gazes locked and he stopped in place.
His left arm outstretched to hold one of the doors while his right was curved to pick up the door-stopper. His body was tilted and his legs were slightly bent to reach the bottom of the door.
I slightly lifted my eyelids at him as a greeting, and he looked back at me with curiosity. When I walked closer to him, slowing down about five or so feet away, he lifted his left eyebrow and smirked at me, seemingly amused.
I felt my brows begin to furrow at his teasing look. “Forget something?” He asked me. “Yeah, my stuff…(it’s in there) . . .” I smiled at him as I inched a little closer. “Oh.”
His face lost the smug expression and instead returned to its usual wonder-filled state. It took a few seconds of looking at me before he realized he was blocking the entrance. I mean, I could have used the other door, buuutttt I forgot about that. Whoops.
He scrambled to get up and hold the door open for me. I giggled at his frantic actions and smiled before thanking him sheepishly. After that happened, I walked to get my stuff, then put it on an empty chair in the room.
While I was packing my mouthpiece and stuff into my bag, W had walked back in at some point. He decided to take the spot on the table in front of me.
I turned to him, “Did the bell already ring?” “Yep,” He answered. “Ahh,” I breathed, facing my belongings once again, “I’m going to be late!”
W paused and looked up from the laptop in his hands, to my direction. “Do you need a pass?” He asked kindly, making me smile. “No thank you, I should be fine.”
“Is your teacher strict about tardies?” He continued the small talk inquisitively. “Oh, no, they’re not, don’t worry.” “Okay,” he muttered, sort of relieved(??). “At least, not with me,” I added.
He acknowledged my statement and I stood there for a good few extra seconds while contemplating.
I took my bag, swung it over my shoulder, and moved over to W. He looked extra confused looking up and spotting me again, haha. He was only sitting still, probably unsure of what to do.
“Uh—” “I decided I’m just going to get a pass (tardiness excuse slip) anyway, just in case.” He nodded approvingly at me. “Good choice.”
After setting his laptop down beforehand, he moved with me to a back table and grabbed a yellow sticky note. He then put it on a music stand. I walked him through my teacher’s name, but that’s it. He did everything else on his own..
I thought that it was cool he knew how to spell my name and stuff. I also got to see his messy handwriting, which is always lovely as well.
After he finished, I took hold of the note and thanked him for his help before going off to class, smiling the whole way there.
~~
Lastly, W WOULD NOT stop letting the tubas play throughout the majority of the period. He showered us with compliments since we were sounding really good, and it was just amazing.
I always loved the way W looked at me when I was doing something right. It’s so validating. I love him a lot. ❤️
||||||||||||||||||||
Whew! That was fun. Not sure why this took a week, but ah well, hope you all enjoyed it nonetheless!
If I start posting about this week right after I publish this one— which I probably will— don’t worry about it. Just rambling as always. ^^

➯ Headcannon; Learning to Fight (Tsuna, Hibari, Mukuro, Xanxus)
Characters: Tsunayoshi, Hibari, Mukuro, & Xanxus
World: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
☂  R a i n d r o p from [@ ​anonymous] ➧➧ “Ahh I adored the confession headcannon! Can I get a headcannon on how Tsuna, Hibari, Mukuro, and Xanxus would react to their s/o who refuses to leave their side in battle? Like their s/o goes so far as to learn how to fight so they can stay next to their side when needed? Like they’re completely stubborn about it as well, no matter how intense the battle gets or even if they get hurt they refuse to leave them alone? – 🍯“
Tumblr media
⥁ Sawada Tsunayoshi
Tumblr media
Tsuna is very protective over his loved ones
He doesn’t want to involve anyone in his battles because he doesn’t want them to get hurt
This is especially true for you because he loves you so much
The fear of him losing you is more than he can bear
So when you asked him to train you, he flat out refused
“You don’t need to fight, Y/N. I’ll protect you.”
But you weren’t happy about that so you went behind him back
You were still part of the Vongola and you needed to know how to fight
So you asked Reborn and he agreed
When you and Tsuna were ambushed out on a date one day
He instantly went into protective mode, pushing you behind him
Despite how strong he is, he can’t single handedly take on twenty guys
Especially when he’s more focused on where you are
But when he looks over and finds you unscathed with five guys on the ground, unconscious
He isn’t sure what to think
He kept his mouth shut as the two of you worked together to take them down
You expected him to scold you, but he just pulled you into a hug
Deep down, he knew you wouldn’t listen to him, but he wasn’t upset
“Promise me you’ll never leave me, Y/N.”
“Only if you promise the same.”
“I promise!”
Tumblr media
⥁ Hibari Kyoya
Tumblr media
Hibari likes to act like he couldn’t care less what you do
Unless you’re disturbing the peace or defaming the school
The truth is that he worries about you
He knows you’ve been training with Yamamoto, learning how to fight and how to properly wield a sword
Even Ryohei was teaching you how to box
He didn’t like it, but he knew that, at the very least, you need to be able to protect yourself
Hibari is strong and doesn’t often find himself needing help
But that doesn’t stop you from rushing to his side, trying to aide him when a group of guys tries to attack him on his way home
He finds himself holding back so you could have your moment
You were cute when you beat the living daylights out those thugs
Not that he’d ever admit that aloud
“Your form needs work, herbivore.”
He’d tap the back of your leg with his tonfa before walking away
You trail after him happily, of course
Tumblr media
⥁ Rokudo Mukuro
Tumblr media
Two words: not allowed
If you bring it up to him, he’ll simply state that there’s no need
“No one will ever lay a hand on you.”
When you tell him you want to learn to fight in order to help him
His heart skips a beat, but you wouldn’t know it from the smug smirk upon his lips
“Silly, Y/N. No one can lay a hand on me, either.”
You know he won’t change his mind
And you know the Kokuyo won’t help either
So you seek out help from the Vongola family who are more than happy to have you train with them
Aside from Gokudera who doesn’t trust you
“We can’t trust anyone willing to date that freak!”
You did your best to hide these training sessions
But Mukuro is a man that can see into your very soul
“Kufufu~ you’ve been naughty, Y/N. I’ll just have to punish you~”
You weren’t allowed to leave the house for a month after that
Tumblr media
⥁ Xanxus
Tumblr media
Xanxus is another one that likes to act as if he doesn’t give two fucks what you do
But it’s a lie because he loves you
Even if he’d rather go to his grave than admit that
When you expressed interest in learning to fight, he agreed to teach you
After all, if you’re going to learn, you’re going to learn right
And only he can teach you properly
Like hell is he going to let some other person teach you
“You can’t be a member of the Varia if you’re weak as shit, brat.”
Training sessions with him are hard as fuck
And most days, you truly think you might just die
He pushes you harder than anyone else because he believes in you
He knows that you are strong and can handle it
And he even rewards you after each successful training session with whatever your heart desires

Short Luwoo ff
×Smut at the end×
Bottom Jungwoo! Top Lucas! Soft Jungwoo! Playboy Lucas!
Jungwoo was surprised to see someone standing in front of his locker. Specifically Lucas, the popular playboy. His locker wasn't even near Jungwoos. "Excuse me, but, could you please move? You're standing in front of my locker," Jungwoo asked the boy kindly. "So what? I can stand-" He blinked when he looked at the boy. Jungwoo had a thin waist with curvy hips, basically an hour glass body.
Lucas thought him to be female. With a smirk plastered on his face, he pinned Jungwoo onto the locker. Jungwoos eyes widened and he bit his lip. "If I knew that a pretty girl owned this locker-" "Girl? I'm a boy," Jungwoo said. There was a moment of silence before Lucas stepped away from Jungwoo. "I didn't know. You look so feminine," lucas said. Jungwoo pouted, looking down at his body. 'Did he really look feminine?' He thought.
"I'm very masculine," He pursed his lips. Lucas burst out laughing, taking Jungwoo by surprise. "W- Why are you laughing? It's true," He said, trying to show the non-existent muscles on his arms. Lucas only laughed harder. "Please, I'm going to die of laughter!" Jungwoo sighed. "Fine, fine. I'm so very feminine," Jungwoo said, opening his locker. "Was it so hard to accept?" Lucas asked walking away.
~
Jungwoo was running as he was late for school. He glanced down at his watch every few seconds, hoping that he would at least make it before the bell rung. He finally made it to school, he ran inside but tripped on the threshold as he entered. He felt lips hitting his. He almost leaned into it. Almost.
He was pushed off and found the person that he had just kissed, was none other than Lucas. Lucas had a blank, unreadable expression while Jungwoo was entirely shocked. "You stole my first kiss!" Jungwoo stood up in panic, rubbing his lips frantically. "That was your first kiss?" Lucas asked. "Yes! I have had my lips violated by yours!" Jungwoo said, still rubbing his lips.
"Rubbing them won't remove my kiss," Lucas said. Jungwoo stopped rubbing his lips. They stood still for a few seconds. Jungwoo then remembered he was late. He stopped worrying about his lips and ran to class.
~
Jungwoo thought that this was the worst day of his life. First, he was late, then he got his first kiss stolen, then he was shouted at for being late and then he spilled his drink all over himself. Could this day get any worse? He opened his locker, spotting a white note. He opened it and pursed his lips cutely. It read:
Let's hang out together, meet me in front of the school at the end of the day ;)
Jungwoo bit the insides of his cheeks. Could he trust this mysterious person? Well, they wouldn't be able to hurt him since they asked to meet him in the front of the school. He bit his lip. It would be unavoidable anyway.
~
Of course it was him. Lucas. Jungwoo pouted as he walked up to him. "Can't you just leave me alone?" Jungwoo asked. "Oh come on, I just wanna get to know you. You are cute," Lucas winked. The shorter boy blushed. Jungwoo couldn't tell if Lucas was playing him, or if he generally wanted to be his friend or something else.
"Okay," Jungwoo managed to get out. Lucas winked again. They walked beside each other, Jungwoo following Lucas's lead. He expected him to lead them to a cafe or a park. But no. A fancy restaurant. They were in school clothes! "Are we seriously going there? We're not even properly dressed.They'll look at us like we're crazy!" Jungwoo said.
Lucas looked at the restaurant and chuckled, "No, we're going there." He pointed towards a sushi shop. Jungwoo sighed in relief as they entered the small shop. They ordered sushi and sat down together. Jungwoo was about to pick up his chopsticks when Lucas picked them up first, picking a piece of the sushi up and holding it to the other boys mouth.
Jungwoo stared at the piece of sushi in front of him. "Open your mouth," Lucas said. Jungwoo looked at the mouth watering piece of sushi in front him before opening his mouth. He chewed on the piece before swallowing.
Lucas watched with a smug look on. "More?" The smaller boy nodded before Lucas fed him sushi again. Before they knew it, they finished their sushi. "Ahh, thanks for the sushi," Jungwoo said. Lucas winked again before asking, "Would you go out with me again?" Jungwoo blushed.
"Well, I guess I would," He replied. "Great. How about I walk you home?" Was Lucas actually interested him? "A- Alright," His ears turned red. Lucas asked, "Can you hold something for me?" "What?" "My hand," The taller male winked for the third time today. "That's cheezy," "Eh, I tried," Jungwoo raised an eyebrow but held Lucas's hand. Lucas held on to Jungwoo's hand tightly. Jungwoo told Lucas his address and they both walked together, Lucas with confidence and Jungwoo with shyness.
~
"Goodmorning - Wait, we never exchanged names," "I know who you are already. You're Lucas," Jungwoo said. "I'm Jungwoo," "Well, Jungwoo, wanna go out with me on Saturday?" "W- What?" "You know, to deepen our bond," Jungwoo sighed in relief and agreed.
"Great! I'll pick you up at 2," Lucas said. 'This sounds awfully like a date,' Thought Jungwoo, but, he convinced himself that it would just be a trip to deepen their bond.
~
Saturday had arrived and Jungwoo was restless. He was waiting for 2 o'clock to arrive. Jungwoo wasn't sure if he was excited to see Lucas or to see where they were going or both. He was already dressed and everything! He just had to keep himself busy. Pretty hard when you keep picking up your phone to check the time.
He even tried playing on his phone but found his eyes wandering to the time again. He groaned. 'Maybe, I can take a nap,' He pursed his lips and set a alarm for 2 o'clock before going over to his bed. He tossed and turned. He really was excited.
When he finally closed his eyes, the alarm went off and there was a knock on the door. He immediately got up and rushed to the door before anyone else could open it. "That excited to see me?" Lucas asked with a smug face on. "N- No," "Mhm, sure," Lucas held out his hand and Jungwoo held onto it quickly, Lucas chuckling.
"So, where exactly are we going?" Jungwoo asked as he followed Lucas's lead again. "The aquarium," Lucas answered. His eyes lit up. "But how are we gonna get there?" Jungwoo asked.
"The bus," Lucas answered. They both walked to bus stop. Once the bus arrived, they got on and sat next to each other. After a few minutes, Jungwoo had fallen asleep on Lucas's shoulder. Lucas chuckled.
~
"Wake up," Lucas said, shaking Jungwoo lightly. Jungwoo opened his eyes before quickly removing his head from Lucas's shoulder. "I- I'm sorry," Jungwoo apologised as they got off the bus. "Why are you apologising? You can put your head on my shoulder any time," Lucas winked.
The other boy's ears turned red but said nothing as they entered the aquarium. They entered at a steady pace, gazing at the colossal tanks as the crossed the winding pathway.
Jungwoo gazed at Lucas' shoulder once again, wandering what it would feel like if he did again... he shook his head, what a silly thought indeed, Jungwoo convinced himself that'd he look at the fish tanks but instead he found his eyes  wandering to Lucas who was whistling absentmindedly.
"Caught you staring~" Lucas's voice broke the awkward silence making Jungwoo jump. "M-me? Stare? You've got to be kidding, I was just looking at the fish behind you" he pouted, wishing that Lucas hadn't paid him any mind and instead have focused on the marine life.
"Funny you say that," Lucas smiled coyly, "because behind me was the aquarium map" Jungwoo blushed so incredibly hard he might as well have been a tomato. Dammit ! He thought, trying desperately to hide his embarrassment, he rushed past Lucas's side to the end of the pathway, muttering curses in his wake.
~
Jungwoo's shadow hung over the bridge spreading and then joining with Lucas's. However, they were as far apart as two people could be. Lucas sighed, his head hung in shame,   he'd definitely blew his shot. Hard. He had no idea what to do, staring at the back if Jungwoo's head longingly...
"Jungwoo, I'm sorry. I'm not trying to play you. I promise," Lucas apologised.  Jungwoo looked at Lucas, his cheeks puffy. "How do I know that you're serious?" He asked. Lucas inhaled and exhaled before attaching  their lips together.
Jungwoo was surprised but kissed him back. When Lucas pulled away from the kiss, he put his hand on Jungwoo's face and confessed,  "Jungwoo, I love you. I'm serious about this. I know we haven't interacted with each other that much,  but, I truly do love you with all my heart."
Jungwoo stayed silent for bit before Lucas continued, "Will you be my boyfriend?" Jungwoo bit his lip. "Yes!" He said before burying his face into his hands. Lucas chuckled and held the smaller boy close.
~
It had been a few weeks into their relationship and everyone had found out already. They were now in Lucas's house, celebrating their anniversary by watching a movie. "You want Soju or Makgeolli?" Lucas asked. "Uh, Soju?" "Alright," Lucas poured Jungwoo a glass of Soju for himself and Jungwoo.
He went to sit down with the other and handed Jungwoo his drink. The movie started playing and Jungwoo took a sip of his drink. He could feel his face start to flush with every sip he took. When the glass was empty, his face was flushed. "Lucas~" He pursed his lips.
Lucas looked over at his boyfriend and raised an eyebrow. "You're already drunk?" He asked and watched as Jungwoo shook his head in denial. Before Lucas could say anything else, Jungwoo pushed him onto the arm of the couch. Does he want to have sex? Lucas thought.
Jungwoo was about to bite on his neck when Lucas switched their positions and bit on Jungwoo's neck. "Ahh~" He moaned. Jungwoo started taking off his pants. "Wait, are you sure you want to do this? You're not in your right mindset," Lucas asked. Jungwoo cupped Lucas's cheek and nodded. "I'm sure," Jungwoo said.
Lucas give him a small smile and a light kiss on the lips. He unbuttoned his own pants, getting off of Jungwoo. Jungwoo, stumbled off the couch as well. Lucas took off his boxers, revealing his long fat hard member. Jungwoo stared in awe and stared up at Lucas.
"What do I do? I haven't ever done this before," He asked. "Do you know what a blow job is?" Jungwoo nodded. "Could you give me one of those?" Lucas asked. Jungwoo nodded, slowly getting down on his knees. "Wait a second, don't hurt your knees," Lucas took off a pillow from the couch and put it on the floor.
Jungwoo smiled at his kind lover as he descended onto the pillow. He slowly took the cock in his mouth and sucked. He closed his eyes as Lucas groaned. "You're doing so good, baby," Lucas praised, making Jungwoo more confident. He took the whole length in his mouth, sucking on the cock like it was a lollipop. "I'm about to cum!" Lucas said.
Jungwoo sucked a little more and stopped sucking on the cock when Lucas came. The cum was all over Jungwoo's face. Lucas wiped some of his cum off with his thumb before helping Jungwoo stand up. "Lay on the couch, I wanna get lube," Lucas said, rushing to get the lube.
Jungwoo took his own boxers off when Lucas came back with the bottle. "Do you wanna face me?" Lucas asked. His lover nodded and made Jungwoo sit between his legs. Jungwoo stared at the cock. "W- Will it even fit inside of me?" He asked worriedly.
Lucas chuckled. "Of course it will. Listen, there's nothing to worry about. There's a little pain at first but it will quickly turn to pleasure," Lucas said making Jungwoo relax. Lucas applied the lubricant on his penis before nodding at Jungwoo.
Jungwoo nodded back before positioning his hole over Lucas's cock. Lucas thrusted in out and slowly. It was just how Lucas had described it, painful at first but then it turned into pleasure. Jungwoo moaned loudly, his walls tightening around the cock. "Fuck," Lucas groaned. "Ahh!!!" Jungwoo moaned as Lucas had hit his sweet spot.
"Right there!" He moaned out. Lucas thrusted in a little faster. He thrusted at the same spot before Jungwoo came all over his own stomach. Lucas thrusted more before he too, came. He pulled out of the hole, that was dripping with cum and held Jungwoo in his arms.
They were both panting. "I did good?" Jungwoo asked. "You did great," They both cuddled each other on the couch, falling asleep. They would clean up in the morning.

Can you write a lil story with 22 and 25 with the Beatles? Maybe you are American and meet the boys and they all fall for you? You could add whatever you’d like :))) Thanks! ❤️🥰
22. “that’s it, i’m marrying you”
25. “come back here you little shit”
Thank you for your request love,, i really hope this is okay for you:)
Being in liverpool was fantastic, you had only been here for 2 days and you had already settled in quite nicely.
You were currently situated on the grass under a tree of a park you wandered to when you went exploring a little, the wind blew softly and the sun was shining brightly.
You sat under the tree with your sketch book which had all your current ideas in. Your new idea consisted of a gold fabric jacket with flower patches on it.
As you zoned out of your surroundings you came more focused on your detailing work.
You almost didn’t notice the brown haired boy who had found himself a seat beside you on the grass, until you heard a voice speak up which startled you.
“Hello there love” The accented voice spoke.
When you flicked your eyes over you noticed a man squinting his eyes from the sun to look at you as a cheeky smile was placed on his face.
“Hello” Another voice spoke from your opposite side from where the other boy was, there sat another man with the same hair and accent but a slimmer face.
“Oh um hi” You shifted a bit as you felt both their eyes on you.
“Ahh an beautiful American, didn’t think i’d seen you before” The first one spoke.
“What ya got there” The second one asked as he peered over your shoulder and when he couldn’t see it properly he took it from your hands.
“Oi George give that back!” Another voice spoke which made your eyes widen, how many of these boys with the same haircut and accent was there.
But the demand of giving it back didn’t go to well with the man who had took your sketch book as he took off with it telling the other man to come get it.
“I’m terribly sorry about this madam, im Paul” The first one who was originally beside you spoke has he held out his hand which you slowly slotted yours in place to fit his, you were still a bit baffled at what was even happening.
“The one who’s just took off with your book is George, the one who’s running after him- oop never mind, the one who just fell over is John and” The man who introduced himself as Paul stopped to look around with a confused gaze as he scanned the area.
“Ahh there he is, the big man on the seesaw is Ringo” He pointed off into the park at the man who was currently sat at seesaw that was far too small for him.
“It’s nice to meet you, i’m Y/N” you smiled at the nice gentleman which he returned.
A loud yell of pain interrupted your conversation which made Paul roll his eyes.
“Excuse me a moment please” he spoke as he got up and walked away.
You saw the the men he said was George and John, John had George in a headlock as he scrambled to get free from Johns hold with your sketch book still in his grasp, you hoped it didn’t have many damage or grass stains on it.
“Lads! Stop acting like fools and come meet the nice lady” Paul smacked John over the head and ripped George from his hold. “And give me that” he took your book.
“Ringo! Let the child have the swing!”
One by one they all joined Paul and started to walk your way once again.
“Hello again i’m Geor-“
“Already told her”
“Sorry about this idiot taking your book” John spoke has Paul handed it back to you which made you breath out in relief that it was unharmed.
They all sat down at the grass beside you with crossed legs as they all looked at you with bright expressions.
“What brings you to liverpool then?” Paul questioned which made the other boys squint in confusion not knowing that you were American.
“I’m looking for new inspiration, i’m a fashion designer” you answered.
“Think you could design something for us?”
“I don’t think that would be very difficult seeing as you all are wearing black suits” you giggled quietly which made all their hearts swell with the beautiful sound.
“That is very true” John laughed as he slid his glasses back up the bridge of his nose.
“How about we all go get some ice cream, George’s treat from stealing your book” Ringo spoke which made George groan in annoyance for having it pinned on him, he didn’t mean to make a bad impression on you he just wanted to annoy John.
You nodded in agreement and Paul held out his hand to help you up which you grabbed it and thanked him.
You all made your way into the ice cream parlour and all of your eyes searched over the flavours to choose from.
“Hello sir could i please have a vanilla cone please, oh and with a flake!” George spoke to the man.
“Vanilla. how boring” John mocked him which led to another bicker which made you roll your eyes in amusement.
“Oh yeah and what flavour are you getting huh?”
“Strawberry obviously” John spoke as pushed pasted George to tell the man his order.
“That’s still boring John” Ringo copied his actions by ordering a Chocolate cone.
“You all are boring, all of your orders are plain” Paul said. “I’ll have mint chocolate chip please sir and what about you my love?” he asked you.
“Yeah let Y/N decide which flavour is the best!” John crossed in arms and glared at the other guys.
You laughed at how silly they all were and gave your order of a vanilla cone.
“That’s it, i’m marrying you” George rushed out with a big smug smirk and cocked his eyebrow at all the other boys as you sided with him on the best flavour
After you guys had ordered your ice cream you sat on the benches outside of the blue shop and spoke for what seemed like hours, about their band which you faultily hadn’t actually recognised, and about your plans for staying here.
You told them that you should probably start heading back to your place since the sun was starting to get lower and you had a moving van coming to your apartment early in the morning to deliver all your belongings.
You said that you’d love to meet them again and hopefully see them perform which made then happy that even though their first impressions weren’t the best, they still scored.
“Could I have your number then love?”George winked
“Yeah me too-“
“She obviously only wants to talk to me-“
“I was the one who suggested the idea-“
“How about I write it down on one piece of paper that way you can all have it, i don’t see it making sense writing it down four different times” You interrupted their bickering with an amused tone in your voice.
You took a piece of paper from your sketch book and wrote your number down on it and outstretched your hand for one of the boys to claim it.
“Give me that-“ George exclaimed as John took the paper and tired to stash it in his pocket for himself.
“Come back here you little shit!” Paul exclaimed as Ringo snached the paper quickly and ran off with the number they had all been bickering about letting out a big laugh as he did so.
The boys were something else you shook your head with a laugh as they all took off after the boy, all yelling their goodbyes.

Chapter 2: An Angel to the Rescue
Here’s Chapter 2 of Lovebirds in Gotham, my Arthur Fleck fanfic. Hope you like it! :D
The clown spun the large yellow sign this way and that, twirling it as easily and gracefully as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Painted on the sign in large black and red letters were the words: EVERYTHING MUST GO!! He was performing beside Kenny’s Music Shop, a small business no one seemed to be paying much attention to as they strolled past. It was like the shop was invisible.
Arthur didn’t let the smile on his face disappear. When he wore his clown costume and bright makeup, he slipped into a different identify entirely. On that cloudy morning, he was no longer Arthur Fleck, but a happy clown who’d stop at nothing to spread joy and laughter to the world.
On his right, an old man played a piano. Arthur shifted his feet in tune to the song, letting the music guide him.
When a father and his two children walked past, Arthur lifted the sign high above his head in a dramatic fashion. Making a silly face at the kids, the boy chuckled. The girl clapped her hands in evident delight. Pleased by their responses, he stomped his jumbo red-and-blue shoes, mouthing the words, “If you’re happy and you know it, stomp your feet!” Both kids immediately stomped their feet, watching the performing clown with obvious excitement.
The unamused father, meanwhile, scowled at the clown and nudged the kids to keep moving. The little girl stole a quick glance over her shoulder. Arthur frowned briefly, but wiped his frown away, reminding himself that he was a happy clown. You've got a purpose, he reminded himself: to spread joy and laughter to the world. Forcing his lips into a broad smile, he held up one hand and waved at her in a friendly, silent “bye!”
 Carnival.
That was Arthur Fleck’s clown name. It had been his clown name in the many years he’d been a party clown.
His smile widened as he recalled how he’d come up with the name. Growing up, he’d always longed to visit a carnival. A magical place chock full of sleepless fun – what greater place was there for a kid? But his mother had always struggled, financially, to support she and her son, so Arthur had never taken even one step inside a carnival. He could only imagine what it would be like to bite into a crisp, sweet candy apple, brave a thrilling roller coaster, to see nightly fireworks of all colors light up an evening sky. At thirty-five, still he longed to visit one, but times were hard. Life was difficult enough as it was; he could barely afford the apartment he and his sick mother currently lived in.
For now, he could only keep dreaming.
People of all sorts passed by Carnival as he danced to the music. In the sea of faces, Arthur noticed expressions of every kind.
Impatience.
Frustration.
Boredom.
Arrogance.
Apathy.
So much negativity. It didn’t matter what face he looked to; it was all the same. A never-ending sea of negativity. Gotham was a city weighed down by such hopelessness, Arthur was surprised the city hadn’t yet crumbled.
As one spindly woman strode towards him, Arthur offered her a toothy, clownish smile. As expected, the woman ignored the smiling clown and picked up the pace. Though he wanted nothing more than to spread joy and laughter to the world, it was somewhat difficult when the world didn’t seem to care.
But he couldn’t stop trying. He refused to.
It’s a new day, he thought, injecting as much positivity into his brain as he could. Considering his head was filled with enough negative thoughts, he knew the importance of digging deep for even the smallest bit of positive thinking.
Kids, at least, always seemed to enjoy Carnival.
That is, most kids.
Carnival was spinning his sign over his head. Up and down, left and right went the sign, the focused clown slowing his pace for not even a second. Too absorbed in his sign-twirling, he didn’t notice the group of teenagers strutting directly for him. Only when he heard a cocky voice call out to him did Arthur swallow nervously.
Trouble was on its way.
“Yo, what’s up with your shoes, bro?”
He’s talking about me, thought Arthur, his chest tightening with fear. He’s definitely talking about me. He’s gonna...gonna... He hated thinking of what might be in store for him. Afraid of sending his gaze elsewhere, he focused only on the sign. The guys approaching him were the very definition of troublemakers. The way they carried themselves, the smug smirks glued to their faces – it didn’t take a genius to see these teens were hungry for an extra large helping of trouble.
And Arthur Fleck was on the menu.
“Hey, if you’re gonna be a clown,” the same voice shouted with a sneer, “at least you can be a good one, you know that, right?”
 WHACK!
Poor Carnival had no time to react. The only noise that slipped from his painted lips was a startled, surprised, “ahh!” One minute he was spinning the sign round and round, lost in the world that was Carnival the Clown’s. The next it was knocked right out of his grasp. Lightning quick, one of the teens grabbed hold of the sign and bolted off, the other boys sprinting after him. Arthur reached out desperately for the sign, only to slip like a clumsy, confused camel.
“Hey!” he shouted in a hoarse voice.
Just like that, the chase was on.
Arthur knew he’d never catch them. Running in his jumbo clown shoes was not like running in comfy running sneakers. But he couldn’t let these kids run off with the sign. If Kenny came out and realized his sign was missing, the blame would fall all on Arthur and Arthur alone. Not to mention his unfairly strict boss, Hoyt, would not be pleased. The man had already given Arthur many chances. One more disappointment, and Arthur feared he’d lose his job at Ha-Ha’s before he’d have time to so much as blink.
“STOP THEM!” he hollered. Over and over again he called out for someone, anyone, to notice the pleading clown.
But they didn’t.
Because no one cared.
No one cared anymore.
“Come on, Clown!” the oldest guy taunted, laughing meanly. “We got the sign!”
Arthur ran as fast as he could, his lungs aching the faster he ran. Being a heavy smoker, it didn’t take much for him to get out of breath. But it didn’t matter. He was responsible for Kenny’s sign. He had to get it back.
Down the busy sidewalk Arthur ran. The teens kept looking back at him, the sneers on their faces refusing to die. How he managed to avoid knocking into people, Arthur wasn’t sure. With unexplainable speed, he weaved in and around men, women and children, praying he didn’t tumble and crash to the ground and break both his legs.
“Where’s your sign, Clown?”
In your hands, thought Arthur miserably. Determined to get his sign back, Arthur raced out into the busy street, not realizing at the time how dangerous a thing this was to do on a busy Monday morning.
 BEEEEEEP!
Arthur cried out in alarm as he barely avoided being slammed into by an oncoming car. A few steps forward and another vehicle slammed on their breaks. The embarrassed, fear-stricken look in his eyes went unnoticed by the peeved driver, who honked harshly at the clown. Before Arthur hurried off the street, the cabbie rolled down the window to yell out, “Watch where you’re going!”
Arthur felt his legs starting to cramp. He doubted he could run much longer until his fuel tank ran out and he’d have to stop. His lungs were screaming for air with each step he took.
Faster, run faster! he thought in a panic, quickening the pace. The teens were a few yards ahead of him. Again and again Arthur pleaded for them to give back the sign, but his efforts were in vain. No way were they returning this clown’s sign willingly. If the clown wanted his sign back, then he’d have to take it from them.
Down the sidewalk Arthur ran, pumping his aching legs as fast as he could. He couldn’t let them get away! More than once he almost tripped, but somehow, he managed to stay on his feet. The longer he ran, the more it seemed he’d never catch these speedy kids. It was like a tiring, terrible game of Tag, and Arthur was It. They were simply too fast for him. Between not being as young as he used to be and wearing shoes not at all fit for running, how in the world was he supposed to catch them?
“SLOW POKE!” one guy yelled, laughing at the insult.
The other boys chimed in with equally-mean remarks of their own.
“FREAK!”
“IDIOT!”
“Stop them!” Arthur shouted, feeling as invisible as a ghost. A few people strolling by cast him quick, curious glances, but nothing more.
Seeing the guys disappear into an alleyway, Arthur sped forward.
“HEY!” he yelled, nearly tumbling onto the grimy sidewalk. Wasting no time, he sprinted down the alley, relieved that he’d finally get his sign back. The group was standing beside a dumpster, sneering and making faces at the approaching clown.
“You fuckers!” Arthur panted.
So out of breath, Arthur didn’t notice the sign had disappeared. In the seconds it took for this to finally occur to him, it was too late. Out from behind the dumpster stepped the oldest teen, his face lit up in a satisfied grin. Up, up, up went the sign, right over poor Arthur’s head.
Then, with a sickening WHACK, down, down, down came the sign on Arthur's head. The boys cackled as the broken pieces fell to the ground. Even harder they laughed at the defenseless clown now at their feet.
“Come on, beat his ass up!” the oldest boy ordered.
Knowing what was coming, immediately Arthur shielded his head with his hand. The other he slipped between his legs, knowing one kick was all it took to cause serious damage down there. Having no chance of fighting off predators, all he could do was protect his head and privates as best he could.
“This guy’s weak!” Arthur heard the leader shout. “He can’t do nothing!” How many times those nasty kids kicked Arthur, he couldn’t say. Judging by the sharp pain radiating through his body, it felt like fifty. Though with how frail he was, even a few kicks or punches felt like a mountain of pain, pushing down upon him.
“Harder...HARDER!”
Arthur squeezed his eyes shut, breathing hard. Frantically he tried thinking of something happy. He imagined himself sitting cross-legged on his mother’s bed while the two of them watched their favorite TV program, The Murray Franklin Show; dancing in his living room as he let the music in his soul free and watching the smiling faces of kids as he sang “If You’re Happy and You Know It”, danced and made balloon animals for them.
Think of happy things, he thought, tears welling up in his eyes. Happy...happy...happy.
That was when he heard a voice.
Not a cold, cruel voice like so many in cold, cruel Gotham.
No, this voice banished Arthur’s fears instantly. The moment it reached his ears, he felt an unmistakable sense of comfort wash over him.
“Get away from him!”
Arthur’s eyes fluttered open. It took a moment for things to snap into focus. What he saw were the boys standing round him, staring in disappointment at the woman now a few feet away from them. Her mouth hung open in palpable shock.
“M-Mrs. Speck?” the boys shouted in unison. There was no masking the shock on their faces; it was as clear as the clouds in the sky.
“Is this what you boys do when you’re not in school?” she scolded. “Going around beating up on someone like it’s some kind of...of”—she let out a disgusted scowl—“joke?”
The boys said nothing. The oldest one merely stood there, hands shoved in his pockets, mumbling sulkily.
“And speaking of school,” the woman went on, staring sternly at the busted teens. “You should all be in Mr. Blackburn's class right now.” Her eyes fell on the bleeding clown, whose face was stained with tears. Arthur stared up, open-mouthed, wide-eyed, wondering if he’d somehow slipped into dreamland. "Though I guess math's just not as fun as beating up on a total stranger...is it?" She crossed her arms, saying, "Bet you weren't planning on coming to my class, either, huh?"
Arthur's eyes widened. This was the woman from the subway! She was even wearing the same pink turtleneck! A week had passed since that night. Since then, more than once she’d slid into Arthur’s mind. And now here she was, coming to his aid like an angel from the heavens. Too tired and dazed to lift his head off the ground, he laid there, staring at nothing else but her. She was scolding the teens, but Arthur couldn’t help taking in the sight of her.
She was small and skinny, like himself. Seeing her more close up, he couldn’t say for sure how old she was, but he guessed she was somewhere in her twenties. In this dark and dingy alley, her flamingo-pink turtleneck seemed to shine with color. If this was all only a dream, thought Arthur, he only hoped he could hold onto the image of this woman, whoever she was. He didn't want this precious picture to fade.
“I hope you know your parents will be hearing about this,” she said firmly. “This is beyond unacceptable! And don’t think Principal Parker won’t be giving you all a proper punishment. This kind of behavior is disgusting!"
Saying nothing, the group left. A few muttered sulkily, but most kept quiet. The oldest boy threw the woman a peeved look, but didn't dare say anything.
A moment later, the boys were gone.
Arthur opened his mouth to speak, but coughed painfully. He groaned softly, laying his head back on the wet pavement. Still he hadn’t taken his eyes off the woman. How had he managed to bump into this same woman, one whose name he didn’t even know? After wishing he could see her again, it seemed, somehow, amazingly, his wish had come true.
“I-I’m sorry,” she said quietly, rushing to his side. She locked eyes with the clown, shaking her head empathetically. “I’m a teacher at Hillridge High. Those...those boys are always getting into trouble at school."
“You,” Arthur uttered softly. “You saved my life.”
The woman’s gaze softened. Staring long and hard at this clown, it took only a moment for the light bulb to go off in her head.
“The...the subway,” she whispered in realization. “You’re the clown I saw on the subway last week.”
Arthur nodded, wincing slightly. His entire body was a throbbing, tender mess.
“You saved my life,” she told him, her quiet voice mirroring his own. For a moment, it looked like she might tear up.
“We saved each other’s,” Arthur commented, offering her a small, tired smile.
She returned his smile with one of her own.
“Guess we did.”
There was a brief pause.
“You’re hurt,” she said, looking Arthur over with palpable concern. “We have to get you to a doctor. You might need—”
“T-that’s okay,” Arthur answered softly, struggling to sit up. With the woman’s help, he managed. “I...I’ll be okay.”
“But you’re bleeding!” she cried, her eyes flickering to the blood at his feet. “You really should see a—”
“Nothing’s broken,” Arthur assured her. His face scrunched up in discomfort. Yes, he was bleeding, but it wasn’t anything a wet facecloth at home couldn’t fix. If he could just make it back home, he could clean himself up in the bathroom and rest on the couch.
The woman bit her lip. “Are you sure?” she said finally, eyeing Arthur’s bloody lips with a frown. “I’d be more than happy to drive you to a hospital.”
Arthur smiled in appreciation.
“That’s sweet of you,” he said kindly, feeling suddenly shy. He wasn’t used to anyone showing him such kindness. It was such a strange, but absolutely wonderful feeling. Despite his aching body, never had he felt so...happy. “B-but I’ll be okay...really.”
For a minute, neither Arthur nor the woman said a word. From outside the alley, the noise of honking cars, arguing pedestrians and barking dogs was all that could be heard.
Finally, the woman asked him, “What’s your name?”
“Arthur,” he answered, sounding like an innocent boy meeting a pretty girl. “Arthur Fleck.” Always in the mood for a joke, he put on his most clownish smile and added, “Well, actually right now I’m Carnival the Clown!” He squeezed his squeaky clown noise. It sounded like the horn on a child’s bicycle. “What’s your name?”
She smiled briefly. “Aubrey.”
Aubrey. Arthur replayed the sound of her name in his thoughts, loving the way her voice sounded. It was soft, like birds chirping early in the morning on a spring day. It was comforting, like the world’s most comforting blanket, one that’s fleecy and wraps around you on a cold winter’s night. He’d heard many sounds in the many years he’d been a resident of Gotham: the sound of one’s fist punching him in the face, the cruel laughter of those who showed him no empathy, fighting in the streets late at night...the list went on.
What he heard in Aubrey’s voice was that of an angels’ voice. No, she might not have had fluffy wings white as snow, or a shiny yellow halo hovering over her head...but what Arthur saw when he looked at this woman was an angel.
Just as quickly she was frowning again.
“You're in pain,” she said, focusing on his face. Arthur might have said he was fine, but his grimaces told her otherwise.
He sighed wearily. “It was just a bunch of kids,” he said, sounding visibly guilty. “I should have left it alone. Maybe if I hadn’t chased them for my sign, they wouldn’t have—”
“Wait,” she interrupted. “They stole that sign from you?”
Arthur shrugged silently.
“It’s completely their fault, Arthur!” she argued, laying a hand on his arm. “Don’t go and blame yourself for what they did. Those boys have gotten suspended more than once. Not surprised they went and did something like this but...but no way is this your fault. Okay?”
Arthur nodded meekly.
She’s beautiful, thought Arthur, unable to take his eyes off her. Not just physically, he thought, but beautiful for what she’d done: saving his life. Unlike the countless people who passed him everyday, indifferent to his endless suffering, she had noticed him. More than that, she cared. She could have easily ignored the suffering clown in the alley, but no, she’d noticed...and done something to help him. She didn’t have to help me, but...but she did.
“I-I’m kind of embarrassed,” Arthur said in a low voice. He dropped his head, his red lips sinking into a large frown. “I’m a grown man, I...I should have been able to fight back or...or—”
“But it was five against one!” Aubrey exclaimed. “They had you outnumbered. And it’s not like we’ve all got black belts and can defend ourselves.”
After a moment of unbroken silence, Arthur was back on his feet.
“I can’t thank you enough,” he told Aubrey kindly. “You didn’t have to do what you did. Those guys could have come at you, but you...you still helped me.” He fixed his sea-green eyes on her, his expression morphing into one of deep curiosity. “Why?”
“You needed help,” was her simple answer. “Not enough people in this shitty town help each other. Most only care about themselves.”
The words not you fluttered through Arthur’s mind. You stopped to help me. Again the word angel popped to mind. Never could he have expected to meet an angel when he set out that morning for work. Having met only uncaring devils, such an enormous, but wonderful surprise it was to have had an angel come to his rescue.
“Well, thank you again,” said Arthur, wincing at the pain in his shoulder. “I...I’ll just go wait for a bus to take me—”
“If you, I mean,” Aubrey started awkwardly. “If you want, I”—she ran her fingers through her long black hair. Arthur watched her, saying nothing. He wasn’t an expert in many things, but he could tell when one was feeling nervous. “I could drive you home, if...I mean, if you—”
“Oh, no...no, I couldn’t have you do that,” Arthur said. “You’ve already done enough. And...and anyway, I...I have to fix Kenny’s sign and get it back to—”
“Don’t worry about the sign,” she said, helping him pick up the broken pieces. “I can help you fix that. I’m sure with some glue and tape, we can at least put it back together."
“Really, you don’t have to,” Arthur quietly argued. “You’ve already done so much for me. I’m sure I can”—He grimaced as a bolt of pain ripped like knives through his shoulder.
“Where do you live?” asked Aubrey, holding him steady.
“Winslow Avenue,” Arthur said, gritting his teeth together. He was trying not to let on how much he was hurting, but there was no hiding his pain. “Near Robinson Park...”
“That’s perfect, then,” said Aubrey. “I’m on Winslow Street, too. I can drive you home.”
Again Arthur said under his breath, “You don’t have to do that.”
Aubrey’s cheeks flushed cherry red. “It’s okay. I...I want to."
She can’t be real, thought Arthur in denial. This can’t be real. I’m just dreaming. I’m gonna wake up and this’ll all be gone.
Aubrey’s car was parked on the opposite side of the street. After helping him across the street, Arthur found himself seated in the front seat of her small car. Dangling from the rear-view mirror was an air freshener. He inhaled, catching the definite scent of cinnamon. He wondered if she liked baking. As she settled in beside him and started the car, he suddenly felt shyer than ever. Here he was, a stranger, sitting in the car of a woman who’d shown him more kindness than anyone. He didn’t know what to say or do. He just wasn’t used to people showing him even an ounce of compassion.
What if she's not a smoker? he thought nervously. Being the heavy smoker he was, Arthur couldn't shake the smell of smoke from his clothes. What if the smell bothered her? What if she kicked him to the curb, telling him to find his own way home? He wouldn't have blamed her if she did it. He wished he had some cologne on him, something that could help mask the smell of nicotine.
Much to his surprise, she said nothing. Perhaps the smell didn't bother her? Or maybe, he thought, staring at her like a little boy with with an unshakeable crush, she's just a nice person.
When she drove off down the street toward Winslow Avenue, again Arthur told himself this was all a dream. A wonderful, too-good-to-be-true dream.
But even so, if it all truly was a dream, it was the most beautiful dream he’d ever had. And however much longer it lasted, he wanted to enjoy every single second of it.
Though he was in pain, he wasn’t thinking about this. He closed his eyes, letting a sleepy, relaxed smile spread across his face. For the first time in his life, Arthur Fleck felt something he hadn’t felt in a very long time.
He felt safe.

Homecoming
So I got an idea whilst writing in a cafe 2 days ago. @vanderlindemangofarm had been away on holiday for a few weeks and it got me thinking on how Dutch would react when his s/o returned to camp after being away and so I wrote this. Mango, this is for you my lovely friend <3 Dutch would be all over you if he'd been apart for any longer than a day. 
I wrote this as gender neutral reader, also instead of using ‘y/n’ the few times a name is mentioned I’ve gone with ‘.....’ instead, as I think this might be more natural? (I have made a slight edit to this piece, I remembered hours after posting I’d written a sentence which at the time I knew didn’t make sense and meant to go back and amend but forgot *doh* it’s the sentence regarding Dutch’s lexicon, anyway it’s fixed here). 
Pairing: Dutch x gender neutral reader  I  Category: Romance/Fluff  I  Warnings: None really? There’s a few smutty references and some passionate kissing.  I  Word Count: 2,179
 You’d only been away from the gang for a few weeks but a few weeks in the Van der Linde gang could feel like a lifetime. You had been a part of the gang long enough to know a lot could change in such a short space of time. 
As you rode your horse back into the camp where the gang had last been, you held your breath for a moment, terrified for a second that they might have moved on without you.
Relief washed over you when you heard Charles’ voice ask, “Who goes there?”
“It’s me ‘…..’!” you replied as you rode into view.
Charles waved up at you and smiled, “Good to see you back ‘…..’’
You nodded and rode back into the camp, saying hey to the others as you passed, noticing several of the girls look up from their chores and wave. Kieran as always was happy to see you, then again you noticed he always seemed happy and content even doing the chores others would moan about. 
As you hitched your horse you inhaled deeply and took a moment to appreciate how good it felt to be home. It didn’t matter where the gang were camped, wherever your family were would always feel like home. You inhaled the scent of the campfire and Pearson’s cooking, felt the dappled sun on your cheeks, listened to the sound of the chickens and song birds, of Arthur chopping wood. It felt good to be home.
But more than anything you were excited, if not a little nervous, to see Dutch.
You needn’t have worried, Dutch was stood by your tent, he’d been watching you as you arrived, a small smile born of fondness. Dutch wasn’t the type of man who’d run across camp and sweep you up into your arms. 
Instead as you walked over to him, smiles to match one another, he opened his arms to you and in that moment it was difficult to resist running into his arms.
Your footsteps grew a little quicker, though it was only a few seconds until you reached him, that was enough. When you were stood mere inches from him, close enough that you could smell his aftershave and the last cigar he smoked, he said, “Well hello there stranger.”
You could hold back no more you threw yourself into his chest, his large arms wrapping instantly round you and securing you against him. 
You felt his face nuzzle into your hair and inhale your scent, “Hmmm I missed you love.”
“I missed you too,” you said as you felt tears well up in your eyes. You felt silly but you’d never loved anyone the way you loved him, he was your home. 
You stood like that for several minutes, just feeling safe in his arms, swaying a little to the music that was playing over his gramophone. Dutch chuckled into your ear as he felt you begin to move to the music, “Ahh my dear this is why I missed you.”
You squeezed your arms tighter round him not wanting to let go, you hadn’t even kissed him yet but the comfort of his arms was enough. Behind you you heard Sean sniggering a little in your direction, but you didn’t care. 
When you finally pulled away and looked up at Dutch’s face your heart soared with love.
“You doing okay old man?”
Dutch could never be angry with you, it wasn’t the kind of thing any of the others could get away with saying but with you, well he was your old man.
Dutch chuckled again and stroked your hair lovingly, “I am now.”
He scooped you into his chest again, but this time so he could kiss you. The kiss was rough, rougher perhaps than you would have liked in front of the others. In fact it crossed your mind that he was kissing you more passionately than he usually would have when there were others present. 
Instead of protesting, you melted into his arms, allowing him to tilt your head back a little so he had better access to kiss you. His moustache tickled your upper lip as it always did, his lips were rough and needy. He sucked your lower lip, gently nibbling once he had secured your soft flesh between his teeth. The hand that was around your waist now gripped you tighter and you found yourself fighting the urge to rut against his leg as he slowly sucked your lip. 
One of his hands was behind your neck so that he could stroke your hair a little and pull when he wanted to, the other still snaked round your waist, holding you steady and keeping you close to him. 
His tongue slid between your lips and you audibly moaned into his mouth, flicking your own tongue over his and swirling it round in your mouth. The kiss was incredibly sloppy and you had no doubt a little drool might have escaped from the corners of your lips, but you didn’t care. Dutch was claiming you as his own all over again, it was what you needed, what you wanted - for the camp to know who you belonged to. 
“Sheesh you guys considered getting a room?” Sean jested.
Whilst your eyes were closed, you just knew that Dutch had shot Sean a glance that told the him to shut up. 
When you finally pulled away from the kiss you were speechless.
“Do I really blow you away that much dear?” Dutch asked smirking.
You both loved and hated how smug he could be at times, especially when it came to you. 
“I missed you so much,” you confessed and once again buried your head into his chest, wishing now that his waistcoat were removed so that you could nuzzle into his copious, soft chest hair. It was more of a rug but you’d loved it the first time he’d taken off his shirt. 
You’d often lay with your head on his chest, listening to his heart beat as he read to you, one of your hands lazily drawing shapes onto his chest, buried in his hair. If you wanted his attention you’d gentle tug on the hairs or start to kiss slowly going down his body. When you met Dutch you finally understood the meaning of the phrase, ‘happy trail’. 
He held you again a little more loosely this time, “Well you’re back now, safe with me.”
You pulled away quicker this time, “I’m sorry, I know you have things to do I just wanted to say.”
This wasn’t how you planned on telling him, this wasn’t how you had planned this happening with the heat of the sun, mosquitos all around and others watching. But suddenly none of that mattered. 
Dutch cocked his head to the side, “Hmm?” His fingers were in your hair again, but this time to the side by your temple so that his hand fell to your cheek and cupped it. 
The way he stared at you was so intense, his large brown eyes reminded you of planets and even though you knew how cheesy that was, he was your world. And to that end you couldn’t lie to him, whilst you’d been away you’d decided it was time to tell him the truth. 
“I…I love you.” The moment you said it you felt bile rising in your throat and your hands trembled as they played loosely with Dutch’s waistcoat. 
Dutch’s expression remained unchanged at first, for a man with his lexicon, who’s speeches were full of such poetic sentences, he didn’t react and that stung. After a moment of contemplating your words, his hand frozen on your cheek, eyes unblinking he smiled and nodded.
“Well I suppose I’d best be getting on,” he cupped both your cheeks and pressed a kiss to your forehead. “Lots Hosea and I need to discuss you see,” Dutch was talking as he pulled away from you and continue to talk as he walked over to Hosea so you could barely hear what he was saying.
You tried to move your legs but they felt like lead, you blinked, trying to fight back the tears. Just then you heard someone clear their throat behind you, you turned to see Arthur stood a few feet away from you.
“You hear all that?” You asked half accusatory and half embarrassed.
“Look…Dutch can be a little… He can find intimacy a little, difficult.”
“Difficult?” You scoffed thinking of all the times he’d been between your legs.
“Oh Sure…I mean not so much with the…you know.”
You blushed, “He’ll come round, trust me,” Arthur reached out and laid a hand on your shoulder. 
That night in your tent you sat on your cot, knees drawn up to your chest, head buried in-between them. All day you’d been worrying that telling Dutch you loved him was a mistake and any minute now you’d find out. 
You weren’t mad, you weren’t sure what the feeling was inside, disappointment perhaps? You felt like you’d let yourself down by being so vulnerable and letting him see that part of you.
After your confession life had gone back to normal, you’d unpacked your stuff, made your way round the camp catching up with friends and played dominoes with Tilly.
As the sun set you’d enjoyed food and felt warmed by the sound of Javier’s guitar and singing. He’d even dedicated a song to you and your safe return from the adventure you’d been on. Other’s had toasted you, Sean had drunkenly draped his arm around you and the two of you stood swaying to Javier’s guitar.
At one point Dutch even made a rare appearance round the campfire to take hold of your hands and dance with you. Though you didn’t speak, his hands were warm and he didn’t break eye contact with you apart from the brief moments where you twirled round. You just felt like the two of you fit so well together and hoped that your confession hadn’t ruined what you had. 
Shortly after your dance you’d returned to the privacy of your tent and had been sat on the cot in the same position since.
Dutch entered the tent silently, you looked up at him without moving your legs.
He cleared his throat and moved over to the cot, settling in behind you. He rest his hands on your tense shoulders and gently started to massage them, “About earlier…”
You felt yourself tense up even more, “Dutch…don’t.”
Dutch leaned in and kissed the side of your head, “I missed you so much darling.”
You turned your head to the side, “Really?”
Dutch nodded, “My night’s weren’t the same without you, you’re my mascot, my lucky charm.” He nuzzled into your neck.
Dutch stroked your hair, his fingertips massaging your scalp, you practically purred in response to his touch. You heard Dutch chuckle as his fingers continued to work magic at relaxing you. He knew exactly where you liked the pressure, your shoulders dropped a little as he continued and you allowed your knees to relax.
“You like that huh?”
“You know I do.”
“Hey I know today probably wasn’t the homecoming you’d been looking forward to, or the homecoming you deserved.”
You gulped, shame washed over you, the last thing you wanted was for Dutch to think you were being ungrateful. 
“I’m just happy to be home.”
“The thing is,” Dutch continued without really listening to you, “I’ve come to realise something, something that was there all along but it took for you to be away for me to realise it.”
You turned back to face him and cupped his chin, “What, what is it?”
Dutch’s eyes closed and for a second your breath hitched waiting for the moment everything was going to unravel, “I’ve fallen in love with you ‘…..’ I love you, am in love with you.”
You froze when the words came out, was that a quiver in his voice? This was incredibly unlike Dutch, but the way he’d closed his eyes you knew what this meant, he’d opened himself to you and shown him at his most vulnerable.
You didn’t need to answer with words, instead you shifted round a little on the cot and pressed an urgent kiss to his lips. Dutch gave a surprised moan, one of his hands coming up to grip the back of your head. How easy it was to slide into his arms and lose yourself in his warm kisses. 
When Dutch broke off the kiss, he smiled almost sheepishly at you though within a second that was gone and his usual more smug expression replaced it.
“Now, why don’t you be a good little pet for me and come slide onto my lap so I can give you the homecoming you deserve after all.”
You didn’t need telling twice, grinning from ear to ear you slid onto his lap so you were facing him and trusted him to make you feel loved physically as well as with words.
