watching iasip on tv is painful and amazing at the same time. painful because sometimes my brother walks in and sees the gang do the most heinous shit and i dont know how to explain that thats how they are, and yet amazing because i get to see mac on big screen instead of tiny laptop and it makes my brain produce happy chemicals and i start stimming like theres no tomorrow. but also stimming in my living room is embarrassing. its a losing battle i do not enjoy living with my brain!!!!

(Patricia Pov)
The Forest wasnt a typically place for a young women to live, Especially one that dreamed of that Cozy little housewife life, But I made it work, my Cozy little cabin was filled with embroidered little pillows in Soft pastel pinks and purples and yellows, White lace doilies lined the tables, the Couch had a floral pattern and on the wall was A large flat screen TV, After all I wasn't too much of an old fashioned girl, I even had a Laptop for my work, the Graphic designer at a dating Agency, But Despite working for a dating Agency I had no Husbend to come home to, no sweetheart to call my own.
But iam a Patient Women, and sooon I will In Snag a fly to my hunny covered web, after all the Park ranger station is just down the rode and those men are like family, so they understand that if my little fly Escapes his sweet web i worked so hard on, My little Worker bees will just bring him right back.
A loud ringing echoed through the room and I was soon brought out of my thoughts, I was qwick to pick it up.
“Hay Patricia, A couple of young man just stoped by, they were asking about Cabins, I sent them over to your neck of the woods, They look pretty strong, calls us if you need Any tranquilizer darts or pills or strong rope or metal chains!” the young mans cheerful voce spoke, I Let out a small squeal that the young man obviously heard has he chuckled in amusement.
“Thank you Sunny, I’ll Take you up on that offer Of supplies if one of your men would bring it over tomorrow!” i happy spoke, After a couple more exchanges I soon hung up the phone.
My body never Left the soft pink curtain window, Watching intensely for the men to Arrive, my eyes Lit up upon seeing them cross through at the clearing of thick trees in the distance, I feailt my heart skep a beat, the Boys at the station never mentioned Who these men were, but I knew Even from the distance that they were at that they were none other than steve rogers and bucky barnes, men Lost in an era they werent Meant for, men Straight from the '40s, Perfectly and practically in need of a sweet little housewife, It practically had to pinch myself to ensure it wasn't a dream or a free hallucination brought on by Cabin Fever, but it wasnt, the men were geting cloer by the moment, the sun was In its early stages of setting painting the sky in a very light orange, Soon the men crossed the threshold and I heard A loud and assertive knock.
I giggled as i Raced to the bottom of the stairs to let them in,I practically swung open the door, Once realizing what I've done I could feel my cheeks go bright red cuz I looked up at them.
“Oh um, are you Miss Patricia, Your alot younger then what we Expected, is it all right if we come in, we were told you have room for us!” I'm Steve Rogers spoke in a honey sweet voice.
“Its no trouble at all, i get it alot, there arnt alot of 22 year olds with my name!” I Awkwardly exclaimed, I feailt so nervous, these men could take me out with a Single pinky finger, there was no way that keeping them here was going to be easy.
I watched as they carefully took there shoes off and Proceeded up the stairs, I fallowed behind them, feeling very small Compared to them.
“You can put your bags in the large dark bule room, I hope you tow dont mind sharing the bed.” I said softy.
Buky whent in first and steve smiled softly at me. “Thank you miss, and we dont mind, also I apologize he's not much of a talker, hes been Through a lot.” Steve spoke, I nodded my head,I understood what he meant,it was all over the news, Steve rogers and Bucky barnes Fugitives of the law, Steve even had to Resign as Captain America.
“Would you like anything to eat?” I asked softy, he smiledbut shock his head no.
“It's ok miss, Bucky and I have already eaten.” he smiled,I smiled back. “Well if you need anything, my room next door.” I smiled, and he gave me a thumbs up, I soon turned on my heels and went to my room for the night.

“Aaron! Can you come here for a sec?” you call out to your husband from the bathroom, muttering curses under your breath as you try (and fail) for the third time to zip up the back of your black cocktail dress.
“Sure, I just need a minute,” he replies from the bedroom closet, securing the last opalescent button on the arm of his white dress shirt. He looks at himself in the closet mirror, zeroing in at the bags under his eyes and the sprinkling of grey in his stubble. He looks… tired. Tired and old. And he hates it.
Even though Aaron is only in his late-40s, he has lived lifetimes; years of working as Unit Chief of the BAU will do that to a man. Every horror he’s seen and every person he’s lost has weighed on his body and mind. In the past few months, amidst work changes and a new baby, he’s been exhausted and in fear that he’s letting himself go. Of course, being the stoic man that he is, he’s done his absolute best to hide these feelings from you. Tonight, however, he doesn’t know if he can. It’ll be your first night out together as a couple since welcoming baby girl Hotchner to the family four months ago. With no pressing family or work distractions, he just knows that you’ll be able to sense his apprehensions. It’s only a matter of when.
Taking in a breath, he turns a little to the side, frowning at his profile. Aaron winces a little at his “dad bod,” but quickly recovers from the discomfort, milliseconds after it flashes across his face.
“Aaron Hotchner get your handsome butt in here and help me zip my dress! We’re gonna be late,” you exclaim, trying one last time to reach the zipper before giving up and crossing your arms in defeat. You lean back lightly against the countertop facing the door, letting the fabric slip off your shoulders, and wait for your husband to rescue you from the hell that is this dress.
At the sound of your voice, Aaron snaps out of his trance. He shakes his head lightly, as if to physically erase the intrusive thoughts, and clears his throat. Grabbing his suit jacket off the hanger, he flicks off the closet light and closes the door behind him.
Languidly, he meanders from the closet toward the bathroom. He drags his feet a little longer than he normally would, still feeling off and a little bit shy about his appearance.
“Aaron,” you sing, “I’m waiting for –,” your jaw drops mid-sentence when Aaron appears in the doorway.
“Oh fuck,” you breathe out before you can stop yourself, eyes widening at the sight of the gorgeous man in front of you.
“What’s wrong?” He asks, crossing over to you, searching your face for any ounce of reprieve.
“Nothing, nothing’s wrong,” you’re quick to reply, standing from your leaning position to meet him, holding out your hands.
He takes them in his own, cocking his head slightly, his soft hazel eyes boring into yours.
You shift forward, moving up on your toes to peck his soft pink lips.
He sighs into the kiss, feeling the warmth of your lips against his own. It feels so good that it almost makes him forget about how he is feeling… almost. But the dark thoughts come back, and he pulls away from you a bit, reluctantly.
Aaron clears his throat.
“You called me?” He questions, but it sounds more like a fact.
“Yeah,” you give his hands a squeeze. “I needed you to zip up my dress, but now,” you lean in again, “I kinda want you to rip it off me.” You offer him a sultry smirk, moving your hands up to rest on his broad chest. He moves his hands to settle on your hips.
You lick your lips and let your eyes rake over his body, taking in every ounce of his sexy frame. The way his crisp, white dress shirt hugs his solid body makes you go weak in the knees. His strong, toned legs in those black dress pants? Yes please. His soft black hair and salt and pepper stubble on his face are practically begging to be touched. He looks good. Damn good.
“You look…” you pause, tapping a finger lightly against his pectoral, searching for the right word, “…delicious.”
Aaron blushes lightly at your ogling, offering you a sad smile as he squeezes his eyes shut out of embarrassment.
You sense the falter in his demeanor, knowing that there’s something else nagging at him far beyond his usual flustering when you vocalize your attraction to him.
“Honey,” you implore, looping your hands around his neck to bring his forehead down to touch yours. “What’s going on in that big, beautiful brain of yours?”
“It’s nothing,” he mutters, swallowing, rubbing soft circles into your sides.
“It’s something,” you counter, carding a hand through his hair at the nape of his neck. You scratch lightly at his scalp, waiting for him to speak. You’ve learned that the best thing to do when Aaron gets in a mood is to give him some time to gather his thoughts. Keeping him close, physically, is a way to show him some comfort without pressuring him to speak. It encourages him, without words, that your arms are a safe place.
“I don’t…” he starts, and then stops himself. His dark eyebrows furrow and his mouth presses into a thin line.
“Mhm?” you question, fingers still tangled in his thick, black locks.
He pulls his forehead away from yours and locks eyes with you. You let your hands be still now, a silent gesture to show him that you’re listening.
He takes in a breath.
“I don’t look the way I used to,” he says quietly, shifting his eyes away from yours.
“What do you mean,” you urge him to continue.
“I mean, I don’t look like I did five years ago. Two years ago. Four months ago. I mean, I was practically a different man when we first met. I was younger, fitter…” he trails off, visibly upset.
“Yes, Aaron, you were,” you agree, keeping your tone temperate.
His eyes snap to yours, confused. It’s clear that was not what he was expecting you to say.
“You were a different man,” you continue gently, resuming your pacifying touch in his hair, “and I was a different woman.”
Aaron lets out a huff.
“Do you love me any less now than you did five years ago?” You ask him.
“Of course not,” he’s quick to answer.
“Why is that?” You prod.
“You’re gorgeous, inside and out. You’re funny, smart, loving…” he begins, but you interrupt him before he can go on.
“And,” you butt in, “if I were to go completely grey, gain thirty pounds, and only wear a potato sack to work every day would you love me any less?”
Aaron huffs again, but this time he’s fighting a smile. He’s starting to catch on. You watch as a spark of levity returns to his eyes. He holds you a little tighter.
“No. There’s nothing you could do or say to make me love you any less,” he grumbles in annoyance, but his upturned lip and matching eyebrow tell a different story.
“Ditto, baby,” you smile up at him. “I love you at any age, any day, anywhere, and there is nothing in the world that can make me change my mind.”
He dips down then, capturing you in a kiss, grinning against your lips.
You giggle as Aaron works his way down your jawline and neck, gasping as he kisses the soft skin at the junction of your neck and shoulder, thick fingers gripping the sides of your hips. He moves his lips back up to your earlobe, nipping at it lightly as you let out another soft gasp.
“You always know the right thing to say,” he whispers into your ear, pressing another kiss right underneath it.
“Aaron, I know I said I wanted you to take this dress off me,” you say breathlessly as Aaron nips at your shoulder again, “but Rossi will kill us if we don’t show up tonight. Plus, I really want the chance to show off my super sexy FBI husband. It’s been far too long.”
He lets out a low groan into your skin and gives your hips a squeeze, nuzzling his head into your neck.
“Yeah,” he mumbles, “you’re right.”
“Aren’t I always,” you snort, eliciting a chuckle from your husband as you turn around in his arms to let him zip you up.
He takes his time, letting his fingers brush lightly over your spine as he draws the zipper over your back. When he’s done and the clasp is latched, he kisses one shoulder lightly, and then the other.
“Thank you,” you whisper, leaning back against his warm body.
“No, honey,” he kisses the top of your head, “thank you.”
_____________________________________________________________
By the time you and Aaron arrive at Rossi’s mansion, the party is already in full swing. Judging by the number of cars in the makeshift parking lot on his spacious front lawn, there must be at least fifty, maybe even a hundred people here.
Despite the bustle of the evening, it doesn’t take long for you two to find Emily, Penelope, and Derek in the living room, drinks in hand, snacking on some very expensive looking food.
“Hey, look! It’s the Hotchners!” Emily cheers, teetering on the arm of the leather couch, wine glass in hand.
“Hello beautiful BAU power-couple!” Penelope chimes in from the seat next to her, cuddled up into Derek’s side.
You laugh and let go of Aaron’s hand, walking over to greet your friends.
“Hey hot stuff, look at you, look at you!” Derek chimes in, eyeing you up and down before standing to shake Aaron’s hand.
“Oh, please,” you roll your eyes at him as you give Emily a big hug.
“And you don’t look bad yourself, boss man!” Derek adds.
You shoot your husband an ‘I told you so’ look over your shoulder, before untangling your arms from Emily and giving Penelope an equally enthusiastic squeeze.
“It’s good to see you all,” Aaron smiles lightly, all dimples in the low light. He steps in to give Emily and Penelope soft hugs.
“Let’s go get you a drink,” Derek says to Aaron, clapping him on the back.
“White?” Aaron looks to you, even though he already knows the answer.
“Yes please,” you respond, “thank you.”
“Be back soon,” he smiles easily, kissing your cheek, making your heart ache.
Aaron and Derek turn and exit the room together.
Penelope drunkenly pats the seat next to her, and you plop down on the couch.
“We’ve missed you like this!” Emily exclaims, gesturing between the three of you and around the room. “I can’t believe we’ve had to wait nine whole months plusanother four just to have a drink with our best friend again.”
You laugh at her, tilting your head back lightly. “Well, you guys got a beautiful little niece out of it, doesn’t that make up for all the wild girl’s nights I missed?”
Emily sighs, dramatically, “I guess so,” she jests.
“Oh, for sure.” Penelope adds. “You look freaking gorgeous, by the way. I mean, I would have never guessed you were creating a tiny human in that body only a few months ago!”
You blush lightly at her words, “You flatter me far too much, Pen. I owe this,” you gesture down at your figure, “all to Spanx!”
“Amen!” Emily toasts. You raise an imaginary glass to theirs and pretend to clink, taking a swig of invisible liquid.
“Are J.J. and Will here?” You ask them after they’ve had a few more sips of their wine.
“Yeah, yeah,” Emily nods, “they’re around somewhere.”
You take a moment and look around the room, taking in all the sights and the sounds of the party. You see some faces you recognize from around the bureau, but others you don’t. Just as you’re about to turn back to your friends, someone catches your eye. One face stands out from the crowd: he’s a young, suave-looking man in a sharp navy suit. Sandy hair perfectly gelled, shiny brown loafers, and bright blue eyes looking right at you. In another life you would have been exhilarated by his attention, apparent charm, and good looks, but now? Now, you’re married to the love of your life with an amazing stepson and a wonderful baby girl. His wolfish gaze means absolutely nothing to you. You simply flash him a curt smile and turn back to Emily and Penelope without a second thought.
You and your friends resume your chatter, waiting for the men to return with more drinks... only they don’t. Perhaps its “new mother anxiety” talking, but the longer your husband is gone, the more you start to grow concerned. A few more minutes pass of antics, laughter, and catching up until the nagging voice in the back of your head turns into an all-out scream. All you know is that you’re suddenly feeling very overwhelmed need to be with Aaron. So, you announce to your friends that you’re going to hunt down Derek and your husband.
You stand from the couch and smooth out the skirt of your dress with the promise to be back in a few minutes.
You walk out of the living room and into the grand foyer, following the same route as Aaron had earlier. Your black kitten heels click on the marble flooring, the skirt of your dress swishing lightly as you walk with purpose towards the kitchen. You’re so concentrated on reaching your destination that you don’t realize the man who had been watching you in the living room was now hot at your heels, following you through the house. It’s only when a hand reaches out and jerks your arm backward that you stop, startled, just past the grand staircase, turning face to face with him.
“You’re not an easy woman to get alone,” he smirks, reeking of alcohol, still gripping your arm, tight. Up close he is decidedly not as handsome as the low light of the living room made him seem. In fact, he seems… creepy. Really, really, really, creepy.
“Can I help you?” You blink at him, pulling your arm out of his vice grip.
“You sure can, baby,” he steps closer to you, voice oozing with sleaze. You gag at the liquor on his breath.
Moving away, you scowl at him, crossing your arms across your chest.
“What’s say you and I head upstairs for a little while? I’m dying to get my hands on your body.” He jerks his head toward the staircase, reaching out to grab your arm again.
You’re fuming at this point, ready give him a piece of your mind when a stern voice beats you to it.
“Excuse me, what do you think you’re doing?” Aaron articulates, approaching you both with Derek not far behind.
You breathe a sigh of relief as your husband glares at the drunken man vengefully, coming to stand by your side. Aaron pulls you into him, roughly, hand tight around your waist. The anger radiating off your husband is equally terrifying and HOT.
“Take a walk, man,” Derek adds in, coming to stand next to the drunken asshole. The man looks from you, to Aaron, then over to Derek, and finally back at you.
“Whatever,” the man grumbles, putting his hands up, “she’s not worth it anyway. Not pretty enough for the hassle. I just thought she looked like an easy lay.”
“That’s enough,” Aaron snaps, seething. “Leave now, before I make you,” your husband growls. He angles his body forward so you’re slightly behind him. A shiver passes through you at his fierce protectiveness.
“Fine, I’m going to get another drink,” the man utters.
“No,” Aaron interjects, “the party. Leave the party or I’ll have you removed.”
“What’s your problem?” The creepy man retorts, this time, more confrontationally.
“My problem?” Aaron says, angrily. You feel his entire body tense at the accusation.
“Hotch,” Derek warns, “I’ll take care of it. You guys go enjoy yourselves. Forget about him.”
“Come on, Aaron,” you tug on his suit jacket lightly, eyes pleading… but Aaron doesn’t budge from his spot. He only holds you tighter as he continues to stare down the man as Derek ushers him away and towards the front door. He doesn’t falter until they are out of sight.
“Aaron?” You repeat.
He looks down at you, finally, blinking away the fury until all that’s left is an all-consuming love. He releases you from his protective hold, and you face him.
“I’m okay,” you assure him in earnest, letting out a shaky breath.
“Honey, I’m so sorry,” he breathes, bringing his hands up to cup your face.
“Aaron, it’s okay, really,” you bite your lip, shifting your eyes away from his.
“You’re so beautiful,” Aaron kisses your forehead, and then the top of your head. “So, so beautiful, and I’m so sorry.”
“Aaron, can we just go home?” You ask.
“Sure,” he kisses your head one last time before weaving his fingers between yours and guiding you gently toward the back exit.
_____________________________________________________________
The car ride home is quiet. The only sounds are the occasional click of the turn signal, and the hum of the wheels on the road. Aaron is still upset, and so are you, but you’re also… something else. Something you can’t quite put your finger on. You feel guilty for ruining the evening, guilty that you FEEL guilty for something you had no control over, hungry, tired, and… horny? Oh, and guilty for feeling horny.
It isn’t helping that one of Aaron’s hands is planted firmly on your thigh. He lifts it only to adjust the air conditioning or to scratch his nose, but otherwise it remains on you the whole way home. When he pulls into the driveway of your shared house, and shuts the car off, he still doesn’t move it.
“Honey?” You turn your head to look at him. His eyes are closed. You take in the strong features of his profile, noting the prominence of his nose and the way his eyelashes rest on his high cheekbones.
“I almost punched him.” Aaron whispers, opening his eyes to look over at you sheepishly.
“You what,” you exhale, mouth slightly agape.
“That guy,” he continues, bringing his left hand up to pinch his nose. “I almost punched him for saying that about you.”
You snort, amused by his confession.
Your husband lets out a short laugh, squeezing your thigh as he does.
“I would’ve liked to see that.” You’re grinning now and so is he.
He flashes his eyes at you and laughs again, this time less anxiously. You join him, feeling the tension dissipate with every passing moment.
“My big, bad FBI man decking a barely-legal drunk dickhead for making a move on his wife? Where can I get my tickets?” You joke.
As you say the words “his wife,” Aaron’s breath hitches in his throat. His hand on your thigh presses down instinctively. Neither of his reactions go unnoticed.
You lay a hand over his where it rests on your leg.
“You know, Aaron,” you begin.
He looks over at you, jaw tight, but this time it isn’t from anger.
“This is the first time we’ve had the house all to ourselves in months,” you pull his hand off you and bring it up to your lips. You press a kiss to his palm, and then to his wrist.
“This… is true,” he breathes out, studying you, taking you in.
“So, I’m just wondering:” you grin, linking your fingers with his, “are you going to carry your wife into our house, Aaron? Or do I have to walk myself?”

tfatws revived my love for bucky im not ashamed
Tumblr media
A/N: tfatws has definitely done the same for me! no shame whatsoever!
Pairing: Bucky x Fem!Reader
Word Count: 2k
Warnings: none
MASTERLIST
»»————- ♡ ————-««
You tore your gaze off of the television before you turned to look at Bucky. His blue eyed stare was trained on you, intense and unwavering. Sometimes it had managed to unnerve you, but you’d gotten used to it over the year you’d known him. He was more than just silent...he was calculating, but it never felt wrong. Waving your hand in front of his face you made a small sound to get his attention. 
“Bucky?” you whispered his name softly and that seemed to snap him back into attention as he opened and closed his mouth a few times. Even in the dim lighting of the room you could see that a warm flush of red had crept up in his cheeks, “everything alright?”
“Y-yeah,” he shook his head, more at himself than anything else, a self-annoyed look crossing his features, “spaced out for a minute. What were you saying?”
“I wasn’t saying anything,” you couldn’t help but laugh at him, watching his features soften when he realized you weren’t going to chastise him for zoning out, “I for one was watching the movie, which is more than I can say for you - you should love the Hobbit if you actually read the book when it first came out. And these movies are actually good. Pay attention, Bucky!”
You grabbed one of the pillows off of your couch and lobbed it at his head; but he was quicker, reflexes still sharp and honed after all this time. The corners of his mouth pulled into a smirk as he held the pillow before determining whether or not to throw it back at you. Immediately sensing what he was doing, you shook your head and jumped up, ducking behind the couch.
“What’s wrong, sweetheart, why are you hiding?” you could practically hear the smirk in his voice as you peeked up at him. The nickname rolled easily off his tongue as it caused a shudder to run down your spine. You knew it meant nothing, that it was just something he tended to call people; it was definitely just a thing. It was nothing particularly about you or targeted at you but you couldn’t help but pause. You knew that you wouldn’t have minded if he called you that intentionally. But that could never, ever happen. This was Bucky after all and you were just...you.
“I know your game, Barnes,” you grinned at him, deciding to let the nickname slide, “I’ll call it a truce and we can go to your favorite place to get some dinner. I’ll pay! I’m waving my proverbial white flag.”
“Now there’s an offer I can’t refuse,” he set the pillow back down on the couch as he stood up and raised his hands in surrender. Slowly you raised to your full height, but kept a wary eye on your best friend, “I keep my promises, you know that.”
“Fine,” you agreed as you grinned at him. Bucky’s breath hitched in his throat as he looked you over and he felt his knees go weak momentarily. He could stare at your smile for hours, “get your jacket and let’s go old man.”
He scoffed in jest as you grabbed your shoulders and jacket off the coat rock and motioned for him to follow, “I’m not that old-”
“106? Isn’t that old?” you raised an eyebrow, barely able to contain your giggles as he rolled his eyes dramatically, “just kidding, Bucky. You know I just love teasing you.”
“I am in my 30s,..technically, thank you very much,” he insisted as he slipped on his shoes and you handed him the leather jacket, “don’t push your luck, kid.”
“See,” you grabbed the keys and he opened the door, ushering you out with a hand on the small of your back, “I swear Bucky Barnes, you’ve been an old man since you were a kid. Now let’s go! There’s pancakes with my name on them waiting.”
»»————- ♡ ————-««
Dinner with Bucky was easy...then again, everything with Bucky was easy. Every time you were with him, things just felt natural and normal, conversation and everything flowed freely. You’d met Bucky completely by chance, running into him, quite literally, on the street as you walked out of your favorite coffee shop and proceeded to spill coffee over both of you. He’d been apologetic, claiming it was his fault, but you’d been insistent that it was yours. One thing had led to another and soon enough you became inseparable friends. 
Much to his surprise, and delight, you’d never treated Bucky as anything but...Bucky. That’s how you’d met him and that’s all he was to you. Bucky. Of course, he was much more than a friend, at least in your mind, but you weren’t about to divulge that little piece of information. At least not yet. Maybe one day...or not. Probably not. No. You weren’t about to make a fool out of yourself and confess your feelings for a man that saw you as nothing but a friend.
Bucky, always alert and cunning, had noticed you’d become quiet throughout dinner as you both ate in silence. Normally he wouldn’t question it, but he knew your tells and could easily read you by this point and knew that something was up. 
“What?” he gently nudged your foot with his and you snapped back into attention as you looked at him, “you’re awfully deep in thought for someone that just wanted some pancakes.” 
“It’s nothing,” you insisted nervously, swallowing your bite down and clearing your throat, “just...tired?”
“Mhmm,” he wasn’t going to push you, know you’d come around eventually, “whatever you say, sweetheart.”
There it was again, and you felt a warmth flush over your face as you focused your attention on the syrupy mess on your plate. It was silent for a few more minutes before you noticed a few women sitting at the diner’s counter, giggling among themselves as they cast longing glances at Bucky. Something in your stomach twisted and your heart constricted. Of course they were looking at him, women often did. And you couldn’t blame them; Bucky was handsome in almost every way, and you yearned after him as well. But unlike most other people, you weren’t about to be so obvious about it. 
“Looks like you have a little fanclub,” you murmured softly under your breath as you lightly motioned towards them women. Bucky slyly followed your gaze and studied the newcomers and huffed in annoyance. He abhorred any sort of extra attention, especially when it came from people that only liked him because of his looks. Besides that, it often didn’t last terribly long; usually people realized who he was - used to be - and that scared them right off.
“They’ll leave soon enough,” he shrugged them off before turning his attention back to you, “besides, I-I’m not interested. It’s not like it used to be…”
“Back when?” you quickly snorted in amusement as he jokingly glared at you, “back in your day? I bet you had them all over you then too.”
“Well, it certainly was easier,” he admitted as he played with the straw in his almost empty milkshake, “nowadays people are harder to read. They all either want one thing, or they just stick around until they find someone else. It’s not worth it...and honestly, now one has caught my eye.”
“No one?” you asked as you pushed your last bite around the plate, letting the fluffy pancake soak up the syrup, “I find that hard to believe, even for you, Buck. Everyone has someone they’re interested in.”
“Huh,” he mused as drained the last of the milkshake, “well then, is there someone that has captured your interest?”
“I...no, not really,” you lied, hoping he wouldn’t pick up on the lie. Instead he immediately made a sound of small disbelief; you should haven’t even bothered to try and lie to him. He could see right through you, “there’s nobody.”
“I thought you said everyone has someone that they’re interested in?” oh yeah, he definitely wasn’t going to let this go at all. 
“Except me.”
“I find that doubtful.”
“What about you then, Bucky Barnes?” you decided to deflect by throwing the question right back at him, “has anyone captured your interest?”
Bucky paused for a moment, tongue darting out to wet his lips as he mulled over his next words carefully, “yes. There is someone.”
“O-oh,” you stammered as his gaze shifted back to you, blue eyes keenly studied your features, “you gonna tell me who it is?”
“Well,” he started slowly, tapping his fingers on the table as he leaned towards, "there is someone, but I don't know if she knows or thinks of me as more than a friend, but god, I hope she does. She's been my friend for a while now and I kind of want to ask her on a date, a proper date, but don't quite know how."
"Do you...do you think she could feel the same about you?" butterflies erupted in your stomach as you tried to calm the rapid beating of your heart. Surely he couldn't mean you. But then...why was a light flush of pink in his cheeks? Why was he watching you so intently?
"I don't know," he confessed with a light shrug as he sat back in the booth, an arm extended over the back, the picture of ease, "sometimes I think she might, but I don't want to think she does and mess anything up. I'd rather keep her as a friend than lose her."
"I guess you won't know unless you ask her…" you were positive that he could hear your heart beating rapidly, "you never know until you try. I have a feeling she won't turn you down if you ask...just a hunch…"
"Hmm…" a smile, dazzling and brilliant, grazed his features, "well then sweet-"
"Excuse me," one of the girls from the counter had approached your table and was leaning into Bucky, with her back to you. She was twirling her hair around her finger as she offered him her most dazzling smile. She was definitely beautiful and you really had nothing to base your annoyance off of, but she rubbed you the wrong way, "I was just wondering if you'd-"
"Hi, excuse me?" you couldn't help yourself as you gently tapped her arm. Bucky raised an eyebrow as she gave her a surprised look on her face, "I don't want to interrupt but he's mine. And if you don't mind...we're on a date."
"O-oh," her eyes widened as she looked between you and Bucky, who was currently sporting the most shit eating grin, "I didn't know. Sorry…"
She scurried back to her friends as you looked back down at your plate. Bucky cleared his throat as he leaned in, hardly believing what had happened. You could feel his curious blue eyes on you, searing and questioning.
"So she feels the same way or she's a good liar," he said softly as you chanced a glance, biting on your lip, "I'm yours, huh?"
"Shut up," you groaned, "it was to get her away from you, so you're welcome."
"Mhmm…" god that smile made you want to melt.
"Bucky!"
"Thank you," he bowed his head slightly, "what are you doing tomorrow night?"
"Nothing...why?"
"Can I take you on a date?" he asked as you looked at him in surprise, wide doe eyes meeting his, "a proper date?"
"I...yeah, Bucky. I'd like that a lot," you agreed softly, "see...I told you she won't turn you down."
"Guess you were right," he was causal, but inside his heart was fit to burst as he reached across the table and gently put his hand on top of yours, "I'm already hers, but she's my girl too."
Yeah. You could definitely get used to that.

Ocean Eyes, Cherry Lips, Ivory Keys
Pairing: 40s!Bucky Barnes x Reader
Word Count: 2747
Warnings: Cursing, mentions of alcohol, I think that’s all
A/N: This is a headcanon I’ve had for a while that I’ve been wanting to write about 40s!Bucky, pre-War. I kinda want to write a series about it, so that might happen. For now, enjoy this little tidbit I’ve written, with the prompt of Occasion for HBC’s Lucky in Love Day 18! (This isn’t beta’d so please excuse mistakes.)
Tumblr media
He’s something of a celebrity. A living legend. A God amongst humans. Starting as a kid in Brooklyn, his fanbase rapidly grew, expanding to Queens, Manhattan, even parts of New Jersey, just in the past few years.
You don’t get it. So what if he’s got cool blue eyes, soft chocolate hair, and a charming smile? Who cares if he’s got smooth moves and even smoother words? He’s just a man - a human being - with flaws just like everyone else. A talented and gorgeous man, who has all of New York wanting to fall to her knees to please him, but still just a man.
James Buchanan Barnes.
Most everyone knew his name, but there was a lot of mystery surrounding the actual character. 
You just don’t see what all the fuss is about. You’ve never personally met him, or even seen him, but you know people who have. Your friend’s cousin even claims to have danced with him once. Not that that would be hard. You hear he’s never danced with the same bird twice, and, considering most start dancing in their teenage years, that’s a lot of dames.
It’s not that you’re not curious about him - if he’s actually as dashing as they say - but you’re not about to stop your life for him like some of your friends. They’re obsessed with getting his attention. With seeing if they’d be the one. The one to finally chain him down and tame him. The one he’d go steady with.
It feels like that’s all you ever talk about anymore. It was amusing at first, but now it’s just getting annoying. It’s been three years since that day in March of 1938, when your roommate ran into your room, plopping down onto your bed, before ranting and raving about the new ocean eyed piano player at her favorite bar. And since then, he’s been in your life without actually being in your life.
Speaking of, here you are. Listening to Lucy, MaryAnne, and Jean gushing over the man, trying to enjoy your milkshake.
“I heard from Sally that Thomas said that he knew the brother of one of his friend’s in high school!”
“That can’t be true! I heard from Billy, who heard from Martha, who was told by Ben, that he only had, like, one friend in high school.”
“You’re kidding, right? There’s no way a man like that had only one friend.”
“I hear he does boxing and that’s why he’s got a body sculpted like a Greek God.”
“Oh my God! MaryAnne!”
You rub your temples, resisting the urge to roll your eyes as the three burst into fits of giggles. If you have to hear one more word about-
“I heard he’s going to be playing at Georgie’s on Friday!”
Gasps echoed around the table. “No way! Georgie’s?”
You raise an eyebrow, this actually intriguing you. Georgie’s is a popular little hole in the wall, on the edge of being a speakeasy, which doubles as a pub and a dance hall in Brooklyn. It’s one of the best hang outs for kids like you and your girls, but it isn’t very high class. Maybe that’s why it’s one of the best. “Isn’t Georgie’s a little…cheap for him? He’s been playing at the best bars and restaurants for a while now.”
“It’s a classic in Brooklyn. Near his home, probably.”
“Do you think he lives near there?!”
“Ooo! Maybe we could find out!’
You scoff. “That,” gesturing to Lucy with your glass, you take a sip of your milkshake. “Is called stalking, my friend.”
Jean waves towards you dismissively. “I think he lives near Tin Pan Alley. That’s where he plays the most, after all. Georgie’s was probably just an old hang out for him and his pals.”
“Wait, wait,” you shake your head, a thought popping into your head. You turn to Lucy, confused. “How’d you find out he’s playing at Georgie’s anyways? Isn’t part of his whole act not telling anyone where he’s playing?”
Giving you a smirk and a wink, Lucy shrugs. “I’ve got my connections.”
You roll your eyes again, turning your attention back to your milkshake. “So?!” MaryAnne squealed. “We’re going on Friday, right?”
“Hell yes!”
“Absolutely!”
“Not.” You mumble, causing the other three to stare at you incredulously.
“Not?!”
“I’m not wasting my Friday night going to see some fella you all have a crush on. Especially when he might not even be there.”
Your friends groan, exchanging glances. “And what’re you gonna do?” Jean crossed her arms with a pointed look on her face. “Sit down and read a book like you always do?”
You huff. “I like reading, sue me. I don’t get a lot of time to myself. You know that new girl’s been gumming up the works and I’ve had to stay late to fix her mistakes all week.”
“This is exactly what you need, then! Come out, have a drink, jive a little-”
You look up at that, an amused kind of smirk on your lips. “Jive? Me and my clumsy ass?”
You all laugh. “Okay, so maybe not dance, but c’mon! It’ll be snazzy, you’ll see!”
“Fine, fine.” Standing up with a sigh, you collect your things, smoothing down your dress with your hands. “I’ve gotta scram.”
“We’ll see you on Friday, right?”
You give a small smile, shooting them a wink. “I guess I can make it.”
***************
Friday comes a lot faster than you anticipate. You dress up; a navy blue dress going to your knees with white, heart shaped buttons and a bow around the waist. The shoes you’re wearing are your nice black and white Mary Janes. Lips painted deep red, and hair pinned back in loose curls, you glance over yourself in a mirror. You’ll admit; you look damn good. You don’t wanna go, but you might as well try to have some fun since you are.
It’s a cool evening, early May meaning the summer humidity hasn’t hit just yet. You didn’t even think about bringing a coat, but you start to regret the decision as you start walking. MaryAnne, who you actually room with, already left, being way too excited to stay put.
It doesn’t take you long - you live on the border of Queens and Brooklyn - but your feet are more sore than you’d like when you arrive.
“I knew you’d come!” Lucy grins, coming up besides you and linking her arm in yours. MaryAnne comes up on your other side and does the same to your free arm.
“Where’s Jean?”
“Where do you think? She already found a Joe to swing with.”
You laugh. “Of course she has! So is your dreamboat here?”
The grins that are immediately on their faces answer your question and they quickly drag you inside.
It’s hot and crowded and dim. Skirts with their beaus, guys with their broads, swinging and dancing to the lively music of the band on stage. Smoke from cigarettes, pipes, and cigars is evident in the air as they neared the bar portion of the building, mixing with the boisterous sound of laughter and chatter.
“Everyone’s talking about it! He’s here, but he hasn’t played yet. We’ve been trying to catch a glimpse of him, but we think he’s in a back room.” The dramatic sigh MaryAnne gives makes you laugh a little.
“Okay, khaki whackies. Let’s get a drink.”
You, just as you thought would happen tonight, are left alone at the bar by your friends who quickly found partners to dance with. A few men asked you, but you have never been a good dancer.
You’re lost in thought, running a finger gently around the rim of your cup, when a voice sounded besides you, pulling you out of your thoughts, a slight rasp to the otherwise mellifluous voice.
“You gonna drink that, doll, or just stare at it all night?”
You raise an eyebrow at the jest, turning your head, only to have your breath hitch. What a specimen. Ocean blue eyes, fluffy brown curls, cherry pink lips. A white dress shirt is pulled over his broad chest, gray dress pants hugging thick thighs, matching suit jacket across wide shoulders. He has a blue, black, and white plaid tie around his neck and you can see the edges of his blue suspenders under his blazer. He’s put together, but it’s nothing special, a normal Sunday best suit, that much you can tell.
“Uh, not all night.” You look back to the drink, before looking at the clock with a hum, tilting your head playfully. “Maybe another hour.”
He chuckles, gesturing for the bartender. “Tell me this, sweetheart. What is a beautiful dame like yourself doin’ drinking alone?”
“I’m not very good on my feet, I’m afraid.” You laugh nervously, taking a sip of your drink.
“Don’t come here often, then?”
“Only for special occasions.”
“What’s the special occasion this evenin’, sugar?”
You shrug. “My friends dragged me here. They’re practically in love with this guy who’s supposedly playing the piano tonight. James Barnes. Have you ever heard of him?”
He chuckles, a grin pulling his lips upwards. “Yeah. Yeah I’ve heard of ‘im. Not a big fan yourself?”
“I’m sure he’s fine. I just don’t understand the fascination with him. Let the man be.”
“I agree.” He hums with a nod, grabbing the glass of whiskey the bartender set in front of him. “I actually know him.”
“Really?” You look at him in interest.
He tilts his head with a smile towards you that makes you melt. “Yeah. He feels the same. He just likes playin’. That’s all. He didn’t want all the attention. He gets enough without that.”
You raise an eyebrow, finishing off your drink. “Oh yeah?”
“Yeah. I’m Bucky by the way.”
You eye his hand, grabbing it after a second, letting him bring your knuckles to his lips. “Y/N.”
“It’s very nice to meet you, mama.” He shifts his body more towards you, running a hand through his hair. “You said you ain’t fond of dancin’?”
Shaking your head, you quickly defend yourself, “no, no. I like dancing. I’m just not very good. Got two left feet.”
He smirks, tongue poking out to run over those plump lips of his. “Well, with the right partner, it doesn’t really matter.”
“Are you asking me to dance, Bucky?”
“Not if you’re gonna say no.” He responds with a toothy grin, leaning his elbows on his knees.
You sigh and shake your head. “I’m afraid tonight’s not your night, pal. I just can’t seem to get myself in the mood.”
He hums, leaning back. “Is it the music? Too fast for you?”
“I wouldn’t mind if they slowed it down some, I suppose.”
He smiles cheekily. “I can help with that. Hold on.”
You grin at him, nodding. “I’ll be here.”
Watching him stand and make his way over to the stage, you quirk an eyebrow. He seems to know the band well, if the handshakes and the claps on the back have anything to say about it. He says something to the lead, who nods with a grin, shooting him a wink. Bucky laughs, but you can see a tint of pink dusting his cheeks, making you wonder what they were saying.
He makes his way back over as the band shifts tones, the animated swing changing to a slow jazzy number. Bucky beams at you, holding out his hand as he approaches. “Care to dance?”
You purse your lips, narrowing your eyes, but taking his hand anyways. “How’d you do that? Do you work here?’
“Uh…somethin’ like that.” He states vaguely, leading you to the dance floor with the other swaying couples. Pulling you as close as appropriate, his hands resting politely on your waist, he starts moving you side to side. 
“That’s not ominous.” You place your hands on his shoulders, following his lead as you stare at your feet.
He chuckles, hooking a finger under your chin to lift your gaze. “I’ve gotcha, doll. I won’t let you fall.”
“I’m going to step on your feet.” You explain.
“Nah. You’re doin’ great. You just need to get outta your head. Relax a little. Tell me something about yourself.”
You hum. “Like what?”
“Anything.”
“Uh, okay…I have a roommate who is one of the girls who begged me to come, I’m a secretary - I know, boring - and…I dunno. I like reading.”
His eyes lighten at this. “Reading? Whaddya like to read?”
“Different things. Depends on my mood. I’m re-reading The Hobbit for, like, the twentieth time right now.”
“I love The Hobbit.” Bucky grins, making you smile back. “I read it almost as soon as it came out.”
“Me too! I was planning on reading it tonight but,” you gesture around. “Here I am.”
Bucky lips pull up softly, his hold on your waist tightening ever so slightly as he pulls you closer. “Well, as much as I love that book, I’m glad you came out tonight.”
Giving him a little tease, you tap your chin thoughtfully. “Eh…I think I’d rather be at home.”
He pinches your side gently, making you squeal and squirm. “That hurt, sugar. That physically hurt me. C’mon, mama, your gonna say you aren’t havin’ a good time?”
“I just met you ten minutes ago.”
“Well, sweetheart, if you think we’re movin’ too fast, I won’t introduce you to my folks just yet.”
You laugh, blinking up at him. “That’s very thoughtful of you, Buck.”
The two of you rock for a little while longer, before the band stops, announcing they’re taking a break and a special guest is going to play a little something.
“Maybe James Barnes is here.” You say, a bit of intrigue lacing your tone, trying to see through the crowds of people who started gathering around the stage to catch a glimpse of the charming pianist. “I see why he would be over the attention.”
“Yeah.” Bucky sighs, almost sadly, giving you an apologetic look. “Listen, I’ve gotta go work for a bit, but I’ll be right back.”
You smirk. “So you do work here?”
“Um…kinda. You’ll see.”
You raise an eyebrow at his words, but he’s kissing your knuckles and walking away. You frown, but can’t think more on it when three young women are on you, babbling about their dates.
“Who were you dancing with, Y/N? He was cute!”
You roll your eyes, feeling yourself heat up, and not because of the many bodies in the vicinity. “Just…some guy.”
“C’mon, c’mon! We’ve gotta get a good spot to actually see him!”
You huff, letting the drag you through the crowd, shoving their way towards the front just as a familiar deep voice spoke. 
“Thanks for comin’ out, everyone. I hope your havin’ a good night. Let’s get this hop started, yeah?”
Your eyes widen when you finally catch sight of the man sitting at the piano with a polite smile on his features. He catches your eye and shoots you a wink, before his fingers start flying over the keys. The beam that he gets while tickling the gleaming ivories, his azure eyes lighting up, and you can’t fight the smile you get. He looks so relaxed, so invigorated, that it makes you happy just watching him.
“Oh my God! Weren’t you dancing with him?!” Lucy shook your shoulder obnoxiously, but you couldn’t bring yourself to care, mesmerized with the way he played like it’s the only thing he wanted to do with his life. Which, as you remember his words, ‘he just likes playin’. That’s all.’ you figure it is the only thing he wanted to do with his life.
You just danced with James Barnes…and he’s just as perfect as everyone says.
You’re still trying to wrap your head around it, your friends jumping around you, trying to get every little detail of him from you, when your heart skips a beat and your brain malfunctions. Bucky had started up another song, slower and more intimate, and he’s looking right at you. 
You find yourself doing something you never thought you would; you’re swooning over James Barnes, smiling like an idiot, heat blooming up your neck and flaming your face. And yes, he’s just a man - a human being - with flaws just like everyone else. But he’s a talented and gorgeous man, who has all of New York wanting to fall to her knees to please him.
And now that includes you.

I think this is the official first chapter. Don’t come at me @the-redheaded-league @agirlinherhead
Bitter like whiskey, Sweet like wine.
Tumblr media
It started off simple enough.
He would walk in to his shitty little office, cramped and always a bit wet smelling from the constant sea air. Humid, maybe? What did it matter, it was his. And as he would finally get his coffee the way he would like it, insanely sweet with no cream, she would start her shift at the little market. They would chat, everyday, and so he got a crush on the new girl.
Not many people shopped too often, outside of whatever they needed that is, so it was pretty quiet. The folks who owned the store needed a break and Annie Flynn wanted to spend more time with her recovering son, so when the owners granddaughter came from the mainland, the opportunity was too good to pass up.
The first time he saw her, he restrained himself from doing a double take. She was older than he thought she would be, maybe 26-27, and quite frankly, stunning. Short and a bit thicker, she kind of reminded him of a porcelain teapot. Always dressed in pastels, and horribly sweet.
(That was the worst part. She was sweet and kind to everyone, even to Beverly, even to him.)
“Hello,” was all he could mutter out the first day, his throat was failing to catch air, he hadn’t had feelings like these in much too long.
“Hiya!”
Who says hiya he thought.
“Hassan. Sheriff,” he poked his badge, the dinky metal the only thing that most people respected on this island.
“Daphne. Pleasure to meet you,” she held out her hand, chipped nail polish on her fingers and a dainty pink ring on.
He shook back, maybe a bit too hard as she made a muffled squeak at the contact. Or maybe his hands were sweaty and gross, either way, he ran into his safe space and slammed the door.
It took him a few extra moments to breathe properly, and he couldn’t focus on anything the rest of the day. He would hear her lilting voice through the wooden walls, “Have a lovely day!” Or “Oh course I’ll be at mass, I heard there’s a new Father!” And even, in a very hushed tone, “Grace, you didn’t tell me about him.”
What did she mean by that last one? The fact she was going to mass was already a flag in his mind, maybe not red, but a flag. When he finally got up that night to do his daily scooping up of Joe Coolie, he saw her again, somehow still chipper.
“Ya leaving already, sheriff?” She said, her smile with just a bit of lipgloss still on and a scarf added around her neck.
“Got to take care of someone, you probably know who, make sure he and his dog don’t get mauled by a certain woman.” He tried to joke, but his voice didn’t waver from his monotone octave. He was worried he frightened her.
She still laughed, thank god. “Alright then! I’ll be heading home soon too. Don’t stay up too late!” She went back to reading a book as he walked out on shaky legs.
Who was he? He was a 40 year old man. Never has been the kind of guy to have butterflies in his stomach or be nervous. When he met his wife he wasn’t nervous, he was cocky, certain she was his. And she was, but only for a bit of time. And now this kid, dressed in a pink skirt and white sweater the first time he met her, looking for all intents and purposes like a goddamn cupcake had him jelly in the legs.
He went home, and Ali immediately asked about her.
“Who’s the new girl?” He asked, not looking up from his paper.
“Daphne.”
“What’s she like.”
“I didn’t talk to her much…”
“Shocking.”
“Shut up, and finish your dinner.”
The next day was worse.
“Hiya, sheriff!” She grinned, today she was in a red pair of pants, and black cardigan over a white and black polka dot sweater. She even had a beret on. Why did she dress like a character off Disney channel?
“Hello, Daphne.” He wondered if she would find his everyday blue ensemble boring.
“I have a present for you, if that isn’t too weird,” she giggled. He could melt into the floor from that sound.
“Depends, nothing illegal, is it?” She actually had a small smile on his face.
“I certainly hope not. I googled recipes and everything, it this!” She pulled out a small strawberry shortcake from behind the register, “It’s halal! I know that’s important. Bev couldn’t shut up about how you’re not Christian, so Erin helped me out and told me you’re Muslim, I hope you don’t mind. But since we’re neighbors I thought this would be nice!” She was blushing and looked a little nervous. The cake itself was beautiful, frosted with swirls and bright red strawberries decorating the top in a perfect circle.
He was speechless, no one on this island had ever made him anything, let alone cared about his beliefs. He was stuck staring at the the pastry for a solid minute before he finally spoke, “Thank you… this means a lot. Trust me.”
He tried his best to not eavesdrop on her all day, especially since not many people were shopping so she stayed on the phone with Grace all day. He could tell when she would talk about him, because he voice would drop deathly low, and then of course she talked about the “handsome new Father Paul” which for some reason made Hassan feel… jealous.
Again, he was 40. Not some teenager. And she was too young for him anyways, just because she was pretty and nice didn’t change that. He didn’t need anyone new, he had his son, he would put a stop to these feelings quick. He had to, because he didn’t want to deal with his morals if he didn’t.
He brought the cake home and stared at it for another five minutes. Ali had finally come home to find him, looking at the stupid cake like it was a bomb.
“What’s that?” He asked shrugging his backpack off.
“Shortcake, Daphne made it for us, halal too.”
“Oh, you talk to her more?”
“No,” he sighed.
“I saw her with Grace today, she’s pretty cool. Nice looking too.”
“Mhmm… I think she’s got it for that Father Paul fellow.”
“No, not her,” Ali laughed as he cut a slice.
“Dinner first,” Hassan said as he grabbed Ali’s plate, and instead, ate the slice himself.
That night, in bed, he thought about how to repay her. It was difficult, he didn’t know how to do nice things. Besides being a cop and protecting people, he didn’t do much for anyone outside of his family. Time had made him a little bitter. Shrivel into himself a little more than he used to. Less confident, more cautious.
This girl, this girl, clearly still had a hope for humanity. Sweet and caring and he’d only “known” her two days. He would destroy her. He would kill that innocence. And that wasn’t fair to anyone. The plan was to keep it as it had been, vague conversations, nothing meaningful, nothing more than a hello and a goodbye if he could manage. And definitely stop listening in to her conversations. Father Paul could have her, he didn’t care.
He did, in fact care, as the plan failed, spectacularly. After the cake incident, he just couldn’t stop talking to her. He was quickly obsessed. Asking about her baking, her day at home, what color nail polish she had just bought. And she was the same with him, asking what kind of food he’d like delivered to the store, if he needed a break from Ali, what new “crime” Joe Coolie had to be stopped from doing. He loved it, the conversation flowed easy and he found her chatting on the phone less and less, he wondered if she hoped to talk to him as much as he wanted to with her.
“Bake me anything today, sweets?”
“Sorry, sheriff! Can’t have you getting chubby! You might be a dad, but you don’t have to have a dad bod just yet,” she laughed.
“A little chub never hurt anyone, shortcake.” He said with a wink, a wink, who was he?
She immediately blushed, “Well, sheriff, I better, um, get back to work!” She ran off to the milk box in the back. Head down, and arms across her chest.
He cursed himself. It was too much. She probably didn’t feel the same towards him. He was old, bitter, and gross like bad whiskey. She was soft, sweet, and easy to take in like a good wine. He ruined it all, he was sure. She had no feelings other than just enjoying the causal talk with this old man and he for sure made it creepy. He wanted throw up over it. The whole day was ruined, and he couldn’t focus on any work, he was sure he would die from this.
Until he heard the knock on his door, “Come in,” he responded gruffly.
“Hiya,” she squeaked out.
“Hey, sh- Daphne. I’m so sorry if I made you uncomfortable or overstepped. I’m not good at being funny or even fun-“
She cut him off, “You’re sorry? I’m sorry! I- I… I’ve never, felt like this,” she huffed out a laugh. “You’re an odd one, Hassan, but I’ll see you tomorrow ok? I’ll bring something special for you.” She winked back as he couldn’t help but feel a blush creep up his neck.
She said his name.
He put his head in his hands and couldn’t stop the grin breaking on his face. You’re an odd one, Hassan. replaying in his head over and over again.
He was completely and utterly screwed.

Jungkook sighs as he plonks down onto the lush gold velvet Chesterfield sofa. His long blond hair falls into his eyes and he puffs it away dramatically. This wasn't how he pictured his life when he married one of the most powerful and rich men in the city. Jungkook thought it would be lavish cocktail parties, expensive cars, jet setting around the globe and attractive half naked pool boys. What he got was a grumpy elderly workaholic husband who forbids him from staying out late, a pool cleaner who looks like John Wayne Gacy and a husband who can't get his dick hard. At least he gets free reign of the black card!
He picks up the remote and points it towards the TV. The screen flicks on to loud moaning. It's a bondage scene - some skinny twink is tied up and a big burly leather clad man is thrusting into him at incredible speed. Jungkook yawns and changes the channel. He watched that one earlier in the day. He flicks unimpressively through various channels before deciding to turn the TV off. He's bored, SO bored. He hasn't had sex all week, he hasn't had GOOD sex in years. His husband needs help via a little blue pill to even get it up and since he has been too busy with a big case load at work recently Jungkook's been left to his own devices and he's starting to get antsy. Just then a brilliant idea pops into his head. A few weeks ago they had trouble with a clogged drain and the most beautiful man alive was sent to work on it. Jungkook remembers the way his broad shoulders strained under his work uniform, his big plush lips pouting as he concentrated, and those big feet. They were huge. Big feet, big cock as they say. And Jungkook was longing to find out if that was the case with the statuesque plumber. He rushes up the stairs, taking two steps at a time and flings himself into his husbands office. He skips over to the desk and throws open every drawer to find the address book containing the mystery plumbers number. "Ugh, where the hell has that old bastard put it..." Jungkook whines throwing important documents in the air. He continues searching drawers until he finds the book he was looking for. "Tada!! Okay, now to find his number." a giggle escapes his lips, Jungkook is euphoric. He knows his husband wouldn't be happy with his sinful plans, but that's what is making it all that much more tempting to him. Jungkook is being a little brat. He misses feeling like this. Married life has well and truly stifled his exuberance for life. He reaches over to the telephone on the desk and dials the number, but no one answers. He tries again and still no answer. He slams the receiver down and pouts, with his arms crossed in front of him. This is his punishment for thinking of fucking another man. Of course it would never happen, what was he even thinking? *ring ring* Jungkook eyes the phone suspiciously, has his husband somehow found out he's in his office and is ringing to yell at him? He quickly scans the room to spot any security cameras before picking up. "Hello yeah sorry I missed your calls, who is this?" "Who is this?" Jungkook enquired sceptically. "Uhh you rang me? Is this about a plumbing job?" Jungkook's eyes go wide, he's talking to handsome plumber, oh shit this is his chance. "Oh yes, sorry, Hi, yes we have a problem with the . .  . pipe, yeah the pipe under the sink. . um in the kitchen. There is water everywhere I don't know what to do.” "Okay, I'm actually not working tonight. . . " "OH NO PLEASE I need you . . uh I mean I need your help!" His eyes roll into the back of his head, he sounds like such an idiot right now. "Text me your address and I'll be there in about 40 minutes. This will be an after hours service so I have to charge more." "That's fine! That's okay, thank you so much." Jungkook hangs up and fist pumps the air then quickly sends his address to the man. His plan is in motion, now all he has to do is cause some damage.

He runs down the stairs and straight into the kitchen, his knee high socks helping him slide to the sink. He drops down onto his knees and throws the doors to the sink cupboard open. Jungkook knows absolutely nothing about plumbing, so he starts to unscrew whatever he can find. He stands back up and turns the faucet on then crouches back down to see if his wicked plan has worked. He can see a trickle of water escaping the pipe, but it's not enough so he unscrews it more. All of a sudden water is gushing everywhere. He thinks it's still not enough to have needed to call a plumber out (and he does have a flair for dramatics), so he grabs a bowl, fills it to the brim then splashes it all over the floor, he does it again this time splashing inside the cupboard. He stands back and takes a look at his handiwork. Not bad he thinks to himself. Jungkook runs to the laundry and grabs a few towels, placing them around the floor, to look as though he had attempted to clean the mess then scrampers his way to his bedroom to get ready. He removes his sweats and puts on a cute pair of pink panties, followed by an oversized hoody. He goes to head out the door when he stops and spins back around. He walks to his side of the wardrobe and brings out a purple box. Inside are a range of toys, but there is one in particular Jungkook is looking for. A black butt plug with a beautiful glistening pink gem. Before he puts the box away he grabs a bottle of lube and then makes his way to the bed to undress. He lubes up his fingers, reaches down and slowly inserts one inside himself, he pumps in and out a few times before adding another. He scissors his fingers, stretching himself out perfectly for the plug. He grabs the butt plug and slathers it with lube before pushing it into his pink hole. Jungkook let's out a small moan when it's in and pulls his panties back up. Just then he hears the door bell ring. Shit, has it been 40 minutes already?! He pops the lube into his hoody pocket, wipes his hands in the duvet cover then takes a quick look in the mirror, brushing down his long blond locks with his fingers before making his way down the stairs and towards the front door. Jungkook can feel his heart racing, he's starting to second guess himself now. What if Mr Plumber isn't even into guys? The doorbell rings again, so he takes a deep breath and opens the heavy front door. Jungkook looks around curiously, the man in front of him has a terrible fake moustache and is wearing some kind of costume. He's seen this costume before, but where exactly . . . oh that's right! "Uhhh, why are you dressed as Mario?" The taller man let's out a loud laugh before gesturing to be let in. Jungkook's cock is as confused as he is, but he steps aside allowing the man entrance. "I was at a fancy dress party when you rang. I didn't have time to get changed, is that okay? I mean, I am technically in a plumbers work uniform . . just not my own." Jungkook studies him. He's wearing a red shirt underneath blue overalls, white gloves, an oversized red hat and that hilarious fake moustache. He's such a beautiful man, that he even makes the costume look good. Jungkook never thought he'd ever get hard over someone wearing work overalls, but here he is, swelling up already. He coughs nervously, "No that's fine, sorry for calling on your day off but I just had no idea what to do, there is so much water everywhere." The plumber smiles "Which way to the leak?" Jungkook let's out a squeak and leads the man into the kitchen, he takes small deliberate steps, swishing his hips, looking back with an innocent smile. As they enter the plumber pops his toolbox down on the bench and crouches down to see the damage. "You know us plumbers always take our work very seriously. We plunge straight into it.” the laugh that follows is the cutest laugh Jungkook has ever heard, it reminds him of windshield wipers. He can't help but laugh at the cheesy joke. "I know a good plumbing joke." Jungkook exclaims. "Oh yeah? I'd love to hear it.” his attention now solely on Jungkook. "I once gave a
carpenter, plumber and a bricklayer a hand job at the same time. I guess you could call me a Jack off all trades." The plumbers ears go red immediately and he turns his attention back to the sink. Jungkook groans quietly, that didn't go down well. He thought it was a fantastic joke too, one of his best. He leans over the bench and absentmindedly twirls his hair in between his fingers. The man is truly irresistible, his shoulders are so incredibly wide, arms toned, and he has a fantastic ass in those overalls. "So what's your name anyway?" Jungkook murmurs. "I'm Seokjin, you can just call me Jin though. And you are?" "Jungkook..." "Is your dad home? I've been here a few times before." "My dad? Ooohh you mean my husband, umm no he's at work. . . late .  . again." Jungkook huffs and throws his arms down on the bench, his head follows until his torso is leaning completely on the bench top. In this position his hoody rides up showing off the pale pink of his underwear. Out of the corner of his eye he can see Jin peek before looking away. A smirk appears on Jungkook's face. "So tell me another joke! That was a good one before." Jin clears his throat "I knew a plumber that was working on the side to become an artist. Unfortunately, he couldn't find a faucet for his creativity." Jungkook let's out an over the top laugh which causes his ass to jiggle. That joke was incredibly lame, but clearly Jin is into this shit so he's gonna play it up. He slowly leans up from the bench and walks over to the fridge. "Would you like a drink?" "Water will be fine thanks, if you have it.” Jungkook reaches as far back into the fridge as he can, bent over in a way that isn't necessary, drinks are on the top shelf after all, but he wants to give the attractive man a little show. He walks over and holds out the bottle of water for Jin. When he grabs it their fingers touch gently causing one another to lock eyes. "Ya know, I've been doing this plumbing thing for years, I'm used to seeing all sorts of leaks. This one though is unusual.." "Hmm really? How?" Jin stands and places the bottle in the sink, he walks over to Jungkook and stands uncomfortably close to the blond. His breath warm against Jungkook's ear as he whispers. "Well I can tell someone got under that sink and loosened the locknut and coupling nuts and I'm thinking it may have been a certain someone parading around in hardly any clothes, showing off his pretty little ass at every chance." Jungkook's breath hitches in his throat, the man smells like beer and woody fig leaves and even with that ridiculous moustache on his face his entire aura right now is intimidating as fuck, and it's got Jungkook getting harder by the second. "Does your old man not treat his little boy toy right huh? I've seen you around whenever I've been called here for a job. Always checking me out, is that why you called tonight? To think I thought you just had really terrible plumbing here..." Jungkook can't even get any words out, so he just nods his head like some stupid dog toy you'd pop on the dash of your car. This causes Jin to laugh, his fingers tracing along Jungkook's jaw. He tilts the younger man's face up and smashes their lips together. The kiss is rushed and frenzied. Their teeth knock against each others and they are left panting, but it's perfect and Jungkook hasn't felt this alive in years. Jin's soft velvety lips brush against Jungkook's earlobe as he purrs "What do you want me to do?" "Whatever you want, please, anything." Jungkook tried to keep his voice steady, but it was no use, he was desperate to feel the attractive man inside him. "Anything?" Jin cocked his head to the side, a wicked smile planted on his face. "I want you up on the dining room table, on all fours," he clapped his hands together twice "Chop chop, let's do this. And take the panties off too.” Jungkook was too aroused to even question the strange request as he walked a little too eagerly through to the dining room. He quickly removed his panties then pulled back the dining room chair and used it to step up
onto the table. He got into position, his knees already aching a little as they dug into the wooden table top. He could feel the calloused hands of the plumber running over his soft ass, before a hard smack was heard echoing through the room. Jungkook yelped, not expecting to be spanked but it felt so fucking good, so he wiggled his ass in the air hoping Jin would get the hint and do it again. Jin got it alright, and gave Jungkook 5 hard smacks right across his left ass check. He could feel pre cum leaking from his hard cock pooling onto the table below and his face flushed red from embarrassment. He could feel Jin's hand on him again and braced himself for the next set of smacks, but instead his fingers lightly traced over the marks admiring his reddened handprint, slowly his fingers made their way to Jungkook's hole, where the plug was fully on display. He pushed on the gem causing Jungkook to let out a choked whimper. "Did you put this in just for me?" Jin queries as he slowly pulls out the plug before pushing back in, amazed at the way Jungkook's hole seemed perfectly made for the toy, stretching easily to fit around the the widest part and then sucking the rest in. "Y . . yes, for you." Jungkook gasped as Jin removed the toy completely leaving him feeling empty and open. He didn't have much time to get used to that feeling as Jin begin to kiss the back of his thighs, nipping and sucking sure to leave marks. His kisses trailed up to Jungkook's ass, lightly nibbling on each cheek. Jungkook was a mess already, panting and leaking pre cum, he so desperately wanted to reach between his legs and jerk himself off, but he wanted Jin to be the one to make him cum. Not his boring old, overly used hand. Jin spread Jungkook's ass cheeks apart and ran his tongue over his open hole. Jungkook's needy whining spurred him on, so he fucked his tongue deep into his ass. Jungkook was in ecstasy he'd never had anyone eat him out before. It was a feeling like nothing he had ever experienced, lost in the feeling he pushed his ass back onto Jin's mouth and begged the man go faster. Jin enthusiastically grabbed onto his ass and spread his cheeks even further apart as he added a finger beside his tongue, fucking Jungkook's ass in tandem. Jin removed his mouth from Jungkook's alluring hole, and continued to fuck him with his finger. "My mother always said you should eat every meal at the dining room table. And that was one of the best meals I've ever had." he casually removed his finger and watched as Jungkook's hole puckered open from the loss. He gave his ass a quick pat before standing back and getting undressed. Jungkook's knees were red and irritated from the pressure of being on the table, so he finally moved off his hands and knees and sat back on the table with his legs dangling over the side. His already big eyes went even wider when he saw the naked man in front of him. He was right, so fucking right. Jin was huge, massive, enormous, mammoth, super sized. It was the biggest fucking cock he had ever seen. "Why are you in plumbing? You should be in porn. Look at that thing!" Jungkook pointed directly at Jin's cock. A look of utter amazement on his face. "Why do you think plumbers and therapists make so much money?” "I have no idea?" He shook his head, blond hair flailing around his face. "Because no one else wants to deal with other peoples shit. Now lay back on the table for me will ya.” Jungkook didn't have to be asked twice, he pushed himself back and lay flat on the table, Jin sauntered over and pulled Jungkook down so they were flush with one another. Jungkook's entrance was shiny and wet from Jin's earlier tongue escapades, but he knew it might still not be enough, so he reached into his hoody and pulled out the lube. "Umm just in case." he shyly looked towards Jin who smiled affectionately and took the bottle from him. He squirted a generous amount over his hard cock and positioned himself against Jungkook's entrance. Jin pushed in slowly, allowing Jungkook time to adjust around his large size. He pulled out and
pushed back in again even slower this time, inch by inch stretching him out, making Jungkook feel so full he felt as though the room was spinning. Jungkook was speechless, he looked up at the exquisite man above him and decided he must have slipped on the wet kitchen floor, died and gone to heaven. He was being fucked by an angel with the biggest cock humanly possible. Trembling, shaky sobs left his chapped lips as the man thrust into him long and slow. Jungkook pushed down onto Jin to meet his thrusts hoping that the man would speed up a little, but Jin just grabbed onto his hips and held him down into place. He was truly at Jin's mercy. The two men were a sweaty, panting mess. The sound of their skin slapping against each other ricocheted around the dining room. Jin lifted Jungkook's right leg and hooked his foot over his shoulder. A bolt of heat shocked Jungkook's insides as Jin's cock hit his prostate over and over again with every thrust. "Oohh fuck, I'm gonna come." he cried out. Jin picked up the pace as his large hand curled around Jungkook's swollen cock, pumping him in time with his own thrusts. Jungkook's sensations were heightened the minute that tough-skinned fingers were being drawn up and down his length. He felt his balls tightening and knew that just a few more thrusts would be all it would take to reach his release. He closed his eyes tightly and let out a drawn-out needy moan as his cock pulsated in Jin's hand, spurts of his hot cum landing on his stomach and all over Jin's tight grip. Jin stopped his movement and allowed the younger man to come down from his high before he started to thrust even harder inside Jungkook's tight ass. Jungkook was oversensitive, his ass tightening with every twitch of Jin's cock inside of him. Jin didn't hold back though, thrusting hard and deep inside of him. "Ahhh fuck, you feel so fucking good, so tight on my cock." Jin grunts between thrusts. Jungkook's whines were stirring him on towards his own release. Jin grits his teeth and sweat drips down his forehead as he finally comes inside Jungkook's tight hole. He is absolutely spent and leans down to kiss the blond. Their kiss is weak and slow, but incredibly sensual. Their sweaty forheads bump which causes a giggle from both men. "Eww you're sweating on me.” Jungkook pouts. "Wow, you're worried about that? I just came in your ass! Speaking of . . " Jin reaches over Jungkook's head and grabs the butt plug, he slowly removes his sizable cock from the blonds ass and teases the plug around Jungkook's hole, watching as it flutters open and his cum start to freely drip out. He pushes the plug in easily, trapping his cum inside. "Since you clearly wanted me inside you for a while now, you can enjoy my cum in your ass when I'm gone." he playfully winks at Jungkook.
Tumblr media
The two men get dressed, casting each other looks of utter fondness. They walk back into the kitchen and grab their long abandoned bottles of water. Jungkook gulps his down, not realising just how thirsty he was. He forgot that good sex can wear your ass out. What a workout, why would anyone go to a gym when you could just fuck instead? A noise from the foyer startles them both, it's the sound of the front door being opened and closed. Jin grabs his toolbox and looks at Jungkook nervously, the blond smiles sweetly at the plumber and whispers "Just follow my lead"
An older man with a full head of grey hair, deep wrinkles, glasses sitting atop of his wide nose and wearing an over sized suit ploddingly makes his way into the room. "Oh honey, it's so nice to see you I thought you'd be at work all night?" Jungkook says as he kisses his husband on the cheek. "Mm yes well, I got as much done as I could tonight. Did we have trouble with the plumbing again? Why is Mr Kim here . . dressed like that?" "Yes sir, sorry I was at a dress up party and didn't have time to change. Your kitchen sink had a leak. It was an easy fix though, took only 10 minutes or so. I'll email through an invoice first thing on Monday morning.... Okay, I better go now." he tensely glances in Jungkook's direction. "Let me walk you out." he smiles back sweetly. When they reach the door Jungkook looks back to make sure he's not being watched by his doddering husband before he leans in and kisses Jin chastely on the cheek. "We should do this again next weekend, maybe the pipes in the pool house will unexpectedly play up hmm?" Jin flashes him a ravishing smile and winks at him as he exits the mansion. Jungkook watches Jin's enticing firm ass walk back to his car and feels the stirring of butterflies in his belly. He's starting to get feelings for a plumber with a terrible sense of humor but with a cock so large it should be illegal. He chuckles to himself as he closes the door, his entire night could be the storyline of some cheesy C grade porno film. But he can't wait to experience it all over again next weekend.

My own fae - Fuegoleon Vermillion
Tumblr media
(Author note: Reader is a fairy with wings, you can imagine however you wanna look. Warning not edited)
It was a cold winter night; Fuegoleon was just about to head to bed when there was a loud thud from outside his window. He was a little grumpy because of how late it was and he would be enraged if he finds to see some of his men just pulling a friendly prank.
Opening his window the strong gust of wind flowed through his hair as he looked around to find nothing. Assuming it was a branch or so till he saw a shimmering light from below.
It had wings and fair skin, back faced towards him the creature seemed distressed and weak as it only had a cloth wrapped around its body.
Heading down below the creature had features that were fairy and elf like to him.
"Miss are you alright?" Fuegoleon ask offering a hand but she looked at him in the eye and tried to fly away only to fall back down as she hissed in pain.
Gazing over to her back it seemed like a part of her wings were fractured. "Cold." She finally says looking back at him desperately.
Fuegoleon a bit mesmerized by the fairies beauty realized she only had a cloth that hid very little. Clearing his throat he took his cape off and wrapped it around her.
Before he could she somehow hid her wings as it disappeared.
Waiting on the floor she looked up at him. "I need help." She then says staring at her feet.
Fuegoleon being a gentleman as he is effortlessly picks her up bridal style. "May I get your name?"
"(Your Name) my name is (Your Name)." She says and stares into his eyes.
Fuegoleon was royalty and considered high in social status so looks from men and women usually didn't bother him, but the way she looked at him made him self conscious. He didn't know why but she was definitely different.
Luckily it was late at night and everyone had a curfew so no one was out, he would have to place her at his private quarters.
Dropping her softly on his bed he placed a robe for her to use.
"We'll talk in the morning. Good night." He says and leaves to his main office to sleep on the couch. (Your Name) doesnt say a word and watches his back leave.
It was early morning as Fuegoleon awoke he peaked into his room to find the fairy still sound asleep. Her hair was splattered and on her back was deep scars he had missed to see last night.
Awaking her eyes she turned to see him peering above her. He had never seen such eye colors before, they were dream like and ethereal.
"I-" he begins to explain but she giggles a bit and leaps out of bed in front of him. (Your Name) examined his face and features. He had royal blood running through his vain. Reaching up to his face she cupped his cheeks and closed her eyes before opening them and meeting his eyes.
"You were asleep for a long time." She finally says and then reaches to his arm that was cut off. "But you've grown stronger."
Fuegoleon lost for words stuttered "H-how did you know."
"I just know things." She simply answers as there was a long silence between the two. Not one moving an inch.
"Um well follow me." He says and brings her to a closet filled with Mereoleona old clothing she didn't wear anymore. "Just pick whatever you like."
After situating her clothes she followed him out and into the clover kingdom. She didn't say one word and followed silently and obediently. Fuegoleon didn't think she was a threat.
They met with the Wizard king. "Julius she is the lady I told you about." Fuegoleon says as the man... well boy at the moment eyes brighten up.
She hesitantly stepped up and showed the Wizard king her scars and wounded wing.
"Interesting, I've never met a fae in real life. What brings you to Clover kingdom?"
(Your Name) didn't know she just knew she was banished from her home.
"I- Well I was banished from home, I don't know how to get back. We aren't suppose to show ourselves to anyone but unfortunately I had to pay the consequences for that."
Fuegoleon studied her features, it was no wonder she was dreamy like.
"I see well! I don't see any harm coming from you. But we do need to place you somewhere safe do you have magic?" Julius asks curiously.
(Your Name) nods and lightly touches Julius forehead. He slowly turned back to a 40 year old man until she moved away he became tiny again.
"Interesting! It seems like you can see through most things. Luckily for you we are a kingdom based on magic so I think you will fit in just well." He assured as she smiled at him.
"I wish to stay by his side." She then says looking back at Fuegoleon.
"That is if he wishes so too?" Julius says looking back at the Crimson Lion captain.
"Of course. However our guest feels most at home. Then you will join my squad."
On the way out (Your Name) was shown to Owen to help mend the scars. The wings would have to heal over time.
"So you really don't know how to get back home?" Fuegoleon curiously asks the fairy as she looked around the kingdom.
"Not one clue but I don't mind. It is a beautiful place where I come from but, rules were super strict there. It doesn't seem to bad here. And if nothing works out I can always find my way home in nature." She assured him as they head to the market.
He doesn't say anything else as they shopped around the market so she could find her essentials. Observing her Fuegoleon could see she was a free spirit and nothing was holding her back as she helped a lot of the commoners.
He saw that she noticed a little girls flowers were dying. (Your Name) wriggled her fingers as yellow sparks came out and the flowers grew 10x healthier.
By sunset he would have to tell his squad that another member joined.
Dinner time came and the hall was rowdy as usual, he silenced the hall and made a few announcements.
"As many of you guys know now we have a new edition for the Crimson Lions. I would like you to welcome (Your Name)."
Curiously she hid behind him and poked her head out. "It seems as she is shy in larger groups that draw attention."
"I won't disappoint, please treat me kindly." She then says and gives a small smile.
"ANIUE! Something about her seems so dreamy. How did we get so lucky!" Leopold yells excited for the new member.
"I wonder the same." Fuegoleon says as the hall went back to a loud musical room.
"What troubles you?" (Your Name) asks as they entered his private quarters. Although it seemed scandalous Fuegoleon was drawn to her since the first time he set eyes on her.
"Just work, you are welcome to stay until the guest bedroom is prepared."
She walked from behind him and grabbed his two shoulders and laid him down on her lap. "It's about the demons right?"
Fuegoleon didn't even question how she knew but he nodded. Running her hands through his hair and braiding them she hummed. "Don't worry. Even the fairies fear them but that doesn't mean there isn't hope and courage." She soothes him as he closes his eyes and embrace the moment.
"You have trouble sleeping because you're afraid you won't wake up again when you were in a coma. It was dark and scary for you." (Your Name) says as he sighs.
"It scares me how much you know about me. It seems like you're the only who understands." Fuegoleon says as he looks up to her hues.
"Don't trust all fairies you come across not all of them are like me." She warns slightly.
"What if I don't wanna met any other fairy when I have one already?" He questions and she laughs kissing his forehead.
He was a grown men but physically touch hadn't been in his library to do list in a long time. Fuegoleon liked how gentle she was with him. "Are all fairies like this?"
"Hmm maybe, maybe not. I put a spell to make you sleepy. Get some rest." She whispers as he drifted off only remembering her looking down at him.
It had been a few months since (Your Name) was welcomed to the Clover Kingdom and she learned the culture simply fast as she fit in hiding her nature identity.
Fuegoleon and everyone that were magic knights were having a celebration. There would be a feast and party along with music and games it was a celebration for all their hard work and a break to have some fun.
He really wanted to invite (Your Name) as a date but was to shy to ask. Usually he was very straightforward but something about her made him smitten.
"What's wrong Aniue?" Leopold ask as they trained one morning. "Something on your mind?"
"It's nothing concentrate on your target don't get distracted!"
"FUEGOLEON!" (Your Name) yelled running towards them carrying a basket of fruits and flowers. Her dress flowing as her hair wrapped tight in a flower crown.
"Aniue watch out!" Leopold shoots as Fuegoleon fell onto the floor. "Ha! I knew it! You were distracted and I got you!" The younger Vermillion cheered.
(Your Name) helped Fuegoleon up as she then patted Leopold head. "Good job little one."
"Thanks! Well I'll leave y'all two to be!" He says running off giving Fuegoleon a wink.
The older Vermillion grumbled and looked towards (Your Name). "Your day off?"
"Yeah I went out and picked some stuff up!" She showed him the different varieties of fruits and flowers, placing a white one in his hair.
"You have a question for me?"
"Huh no I don't!" He denied and looks away as she giggles. "Yes you do. Just ask me. What is it?"
He sighed in defeat. There was no hiding from her. "Well we are having a Magic knights celebration and I wanted to bring you as my date..."
"I'll go! I was going to go anyways."
"But you'll go as my date?"
"Yes I will!" She assured and walks past him to set the fruits down in the dining hall. He grinned like a teenage boy and followed right after.
That night there were many people out and (Your Name) had a bright smile on her face. She was fascinated with the food and music that were surrounding her.
Fuegoleon smiled down at her as she pointed to many different things.
"Fuegoleon." Nozel says from behind as they turned around. "I see this is the commoner you've had in your squad.. you've been hiding her. No one know what she looks like."
(Your Name) looks at Nozel up and down and says "Aren't you his rival? Interesting."
"Why does she speak to me like we are the same level?" He sneers looking down at her and she tilts her head.
"I'm the fae he's been keeping a secret. I'm pretty sure we know who's more of a higher status." She then says and excuse herself.
Fuegoleon sighs and gives Nozel a look. "Seriously?"
"Hmph shes a know it all I see."
"You don't know how literate she can be sometimes." Fuegoleon says and smiles at her back as she plays with Leopold and his friends.
"So she isn't a commoner but rather a fae. Quite interesting how you came across one. I've never seen one in real life."
"Me too, she told me they aren't allowed to show themselves but she stuck here now. (Your Name) doesn't know how to get back home."
There was silence between the two as the two royal men watched her curiosity along side making new connection with other Magic Knights.
"So no one knows?"
"Only a few people know. She knows things on her own. She knew about my coma, the elves and demons. She even transformed Julius back for a few minutes."
Nozel eyes widen and then narrowed. "You sure she isn't a spy?"
"I highly doubt it."
Although she was Fuegoleon date she couldn't help but venture off and get to know more people.
"You are Nozel younger sister." She says to Noelle as the young teen watches Asta and Leopold afar dance to the music.
"I-I'm royalty yes!" She blushes at the older women. Noelle felt a sense safe in her presence, almost like a motherly figure.
"You like him." (Your Name) looks at Asta and smirks.
"I do not!"
Grabbing Noelle hands they dance together with Leopold and Asta. Noelle shy at first blushes and looks down but gains confidence because (Your Name) guided her.
"Ahh Noelle!" Asta yells as he and Leopold connects arms with her. "Yuno! Mimosa come join us!"
(Your Name) backed away and watched from afar, they seem happy.
A arm snakes around her waist as she looks up to find Fuegoleon watching the kids. She smiles at him and grabs his hand. "Let's dance too. We are known to like music and dancing."
He hesitantly follows. "I'm not sure about dancing."
"Just follow my steps." She encourages as he nods and follows her pace.
There was a comfortable silence between the two as they moved back and forth the ballroom. Looking around (Your Name) saw a lot of people were staring at them. She shyly hid her face in his chest.
"Why are people staring at us?"
He chuckles and takes the initiative moves now, twisting her around to wrap his arm around her.
"It's because they are jealous. I haven't been seen out with a lady in a long time."
Turning herself back around she touched his chest. "You are nervous, your heartbeat is fast."
He takes her hands with his and kisses it lightly. "You can see everyone else's feelings but always deny mine."
(Your Name) blushes and grip his hand tighter.
"I do know your feelings. I make you feel like a teenage boy chasing after a girl."
"Well if you put it that way..."
"You aren't allowed to be with someone not royal. Isn't that by law."
Fuegoleon smile fades as he caress her scar back and pushes some of her hair out of her face to see the little tiny pointy ears before hiding them again.
"You already know I don't care about status. I don't care what other people think about us either."
"Fuegoleon has been smitten over me since the first day we might." She teases as he grins a bit.
Pushing herself up she brings him down for a kiss that shook the entire kingdom.
"Does that answer your question?" She asks as he sheepishly nods and gives her another kiss.
"Oh I might go blind." Nozel says in disgust as he slightly smiles for his rival.
"Tch that means it's time for you to find yourself a girl." Mereoleona says crossing her arms and watching the two new lovers embrace in the crowd.
"As if, no one here is worthy!"
"Worthy of the braid." Yami cuts in as Nozel sends him death glares.
Meanwhile on the side Charlotte is staring at Yami hoping it would be them one day.
"Let's go aniue! I knew it was from the start!" Leopold cheers running between them and hugging (Your Name).
The night came to an end perfectly for them as the two new lovers left impatiently to discovering new beginnings.

Rooftop - Part 1 (transfemme!sarah)
(A/N) hey! i have a long ass one-shot and i kinda of want to make it lead off a lil bit of a cliffhanger so i've got part one here for you. this takes place a few days after this oneshot
-

Sarah grabs her white coat from her desk chair, and stares at the embroidery.
Sarah Reese, MD
Dept. of Psychiatry
She sighed, before retreating to the bathroom to tuck and dress. Even after her orchiectomy, tucking was still mildly uncomfortable. At least she had graduated from using tape to using a gaff, which was much more comfortable and easy to take off at the end of the day.
Once she was dressed, clad in a pair of relaxed, navy blue dress pants and a pale pink button-down shirt speckled with cartoonish images of various types of fruit, she grabbed her lab coat, and shrugged it on.
There was a mirror on her closet door, and she caught a glimpse of herself in it. She gulped, and stood in front of it, staring herself down.
She pressed the pad of her thumb against her jawline, and dragged her skin around in a feeble attempt to soften it. Her jawline led her to her chin, the cleft in it causing a pang of dysphoria in her stomach. She puckered her lips, trying to make them look fuller, but that only exacerbated her chin. She sighed, and gave up. It is what it is.
She let her hand fall to her side, and fiddled with her coat. After a moment, she scowled at herself.
“Move on, Sarah, just move on,” She mumbled to herself, taking a hair tie from her wrist and putting her hair up into an unintentionally neat bun. No matter how hard she tried, she could never succeed in creating a messy one. That required more finesse than she had.
She smiled at herself, although her smile didn’t quite reach her eyes.
“I am a good doctor,” She affirmed, “A good doctor who made a mistake,” She quoted Dr. Charles, the thought of him filling her with calm.
“And Ava,” She gave herself a confident look, “Is not worth my time. I don’t even like her anyways.”
She paused for a moment.
“Because I don’t like women,” She shrugged, “And someday I will meet a man who loves me for me.”
“Don’t give me that look,” She snapped at herself, “Just because I’m not cis doesn’t mean I can’t be straight.”
“And I deserve better than Ava anyways,” She opened her mouth, then closed it, like a fish. She opened it again, “Someone better who is a man. I will find the man for me. The only reason I think I like Ava is because I haven’t found the man for me. That’s okay. I’m only 26. Some people don’t get married until after 30.”
“I am a confident woman,” She declared, “A confident straight woman.”
She started to walk away, but she looked back.
“And i’m a good doctor,” She said, sharply.
She saw Dr. Charles outside the hospital, and he waved her over. She ran to catch up with him, out of breath by the time she arrived, “Hello Dr. Charles,” She tried to catch her breath, thinking about how insane she must look right now.
“Dr. Reese,” He greeted with a nod, “How was your break?”
“It was very good,” She announced, “I feel like I am making progress with myself. I am a good doctor! What happened was a mistake, and it doesn’t define my clinical skills.”
He looked at her skeptically, “Good.. Good,” He gave a smile, “In my experience, all you really need after a mistake is to treat a few patients successfully, so I’ve volunteered you to be in the ED this morning.”
Her heart sank.
“And then, when Maggie dismisses you for lunch, come see me in my office and we can chat about what you did differently today,”
Sarah nodded, stuffing her hands in her pockets so she could fidget discreetly. If he knew I’m anxious, he might send me home again.
He gave her a pat on the back, “Holler if you need me. I’m just a page away.”
He left her at the doors to the ED and she took a deep breath, and smiled at the big red letters.
“Help! I need help!”
Go time.
She ran towards the direction of the voice, a large man in his mid-40s who was carrying a young girl, maybe 5 years old, in a bridal-style position.
“Hi, I’m Dr. Reese, I’m going to help you, tell me about your daughter,” She prompted, pressing two fingers onto the girl’s neck while awkwardly walking with the man.
“Ah, she’s my niece, Miranda Maxwell,” He corrected, “Uh, she’s almost six, she’s got a.. uh… Heart condition? She was born with it. Her mom said she sees a doctor here uh… Dr… Dr… Beaker? Brekker?”
“Dr. Bekker?” The name made Sarah’s heart flutter.
“Yes, that’s the one. Anyways, she collapsed today, and says her chest hurts, and she’s a bit blue around her lips and nails.”
Dr. Reese took Miranda from the man, and took a light jog into the emergency department. The man took off after her. Upon entering the ED, she called to Maggie, “Five years old with a congenital heart condition, chest pain, trouble breathing, rapid pulse, blue lips and nails, where do you want me?”
“Treatment five.”
Dr. Reese set the girl down on the bed and Monique rushed to start an IV, “Let’s get her on the monitors, and get her changed into a gown,” Sarah instructed, “And Maggie?”
Maggie looked up from where she was conversing with the girl’s uncle.
“Page Dr. Bekker, Miranda is a patient of her’s, and get Miranda’s parents here as soon as possible,” She looked back towards the girl, “Miranda? My name is Dr. Reese, I’m going to help you feel better.”
“It hurts,” She cried, clutching at her chest.
“I know, I know, we’re going to figure out why,” Dr. Reese cooed softly, before taking on a more serious tone with Monique, “Get a CBC, BMP, urinalysis, 12-lead EKG, and get her on oxygen until Dr. Bekk-”
“Talking about me?” Dr. Bekker startled Dr. Reese, “My ears were itching. Miranda, did you miss me? Is that why you’re back so soon?”
Miranda giggled through the pain at that, and Dr. Bekker smiled. Dr. Reese almost allowed herself to feel endeared by the rare display of kindness, but quickly regained composure.
“Maggie, where are we with her parents?”
“They’re on their way, but they said to do whatever it takes to help Miranda,” Maggie called back, and Dr. Bekker nodded.
“What seems to be the problem, Mindy?” Dr. Bekker pulled her stethoscope off of her neck, and pressed the drum to Miranda’s chest, and listened thoughtfully.
“I felt weird and then fell down. My chest hurts real bad,” She complained, “I can’t breathe.”
“Let’s get an echocardiogram,” Dr. Bekker noted to Monique, who nodded, and started to set up the ultrasound machine, “Does it hurt more when you breathe?”
Miranda shook her head.
She’s so gentle with her.
Sarah smiled.
“Okay, I’m going to look at your heart with this special tool, you’ve done this before,” Dr. Bekker assured, before squeezing the gel onto the girl’s chest and pressing the ultrasound wand down.
She can be gentle. And kind.
“Psych residents, I swear. God, isn’t anyone in this hospital competent?”
Sarah was shocked back to reality by Ava, who was snapping her fingers at her, “Dr. Reese? What tests did you order?”
“Uh… CBC, BMP, urinalysis, and a 12-lead-EKG?” She trembled, her voice seeming more questioning than answering.
“Okay,” She said quietly, focused on the ultrasound.
A few minutes of quiet later, Dr. Bekker put the wand away, “Clean her up, and,” Dr. Bekker looked back at Miranda, “And if I remember correctly, your popsicle of choice is cherry?” She winked at Miranda, removed her gloves, and helped herself to hand sanitizer off the wall. Dr. Reese nodded at Monique, who was wiping the girl off, and left as well.
“Um…” Dr. Reese started, “What do you think?”
“Transfer her up to the PICU and let me know when her parents get here,” Dr. Bekker told Maggie, before turning to Dr. Reese, “I think she’s in congestive heart failure,” She shrugged, “Did you see the ultrasound? She has a complete atrioventricular septal defect, she’s been my patient for the past year, we knew this was coming.”
“Why didn’t you operate earlier?”
“Her parents wanted to wait,” Ava shrugged and rolled her eyes, “Nobody wants to put their four year old daughter through open heart surgery. But now,” She gestured back towards the room, “Their five year old daughter is going to go through open heart surgery today.”
“Well is she going to be okay?”
“If I can get her in for- I’m sorry,” She interrupted herself, “Why do you care?”
“She’s…” Sarah balled part of her coat up in her hand, “She’s my patient, I just-”
“Not anymore she’s not,” Ava huffed, “Thanks for not killing her. Wish I could say the same for Mr. Nearling.”
Ava flounced off.
Sarah watched her leave, and turned to Maggie, who pointed at treatment 1.
“Ear infection.”
Dr. Reese nodded, grabbing the tablet the charge nurse was holding out, and heading to treatment 1.
By lunch, she had treated three ear infections, a gunshot wound, a miscarriage, and sent a psychosis patient up to the psych ward. By the time Maggie sent her off for her lunch break, she had practically forgotten about Ava.
Dr. Charles was waiting for her when she opened the door to see him, and he gave her a tight-lipped smile, “How was it?”
“Uh, good,” She sat across from him, and he pulled out his own lunch while she unpacked hers, “I saw Dr. Bekker.”
“Oh? How was that?”
Sarah tapped her foot, “One of her CHD patients came in, um…” She took a bite of her sandwich, “I ordered some tests for her. She was snarky about it when I talked to her afterwards though.”
Dr. Charles shrugged, “Well, Ava will always be Ava, regardless of-”
“She said, um… She thanked me for not killing the patient and said she wished she could say the same for Mr. Nearling.”
He sighed, and nodded, “Well, it’s only been a few days. She’ll get over it. You guys were good friends before, you’ll be good friends after a while..”
“Good friends?” She questioned, “What makes you say that?”
“Well, y’know,” He motioned back and forth with his hands, “You’d chat, you seemed to be happy when you saw her, she teased you a bit. All of Ava’s telltale friendship signs.”
Sarah was quiet, instead choosing to take a bite of her sandwich and chew thoughtfully.
“Tell me, Sarah, do you like Ava?”
“What do you mean?” Sarah asked, carefully.
“Like… You know, are you interested in her? Romantically?”
Sarah choked on her sandwich, coughing a few times.
“Remember to chew, Dr. Reese,” Dr. Charles reprimanded.
“I don’t like her,” Sarah defended, “I don’t care about her. I deserve better. If I still liked her after she talked to me like that, even if I liked her in the first place, I’d be crazy.”
Dr. Charles shrugged, taking a bite of his salad.
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“What?”
“The shrug.”
“What do you think it means?”
“Did you do Yolanda’s intake?”
“Who?”
Sarah nodded, stuffing her half-eaten lunch back into the bag and tossing it in the trash.
“Sarah, you haven’t finished your lunch-”
“Not hungry, I’ll see you around,” Sarah started to leave, but Dr. Charles stopped her.
“I’m supposed to pass a note on for you.”

Author’s Note: 
This part, I hope, is more intriguing the last two. I promise that the chapters from here on out will be get increasingly mature *if you catch my drift*.
"Would you like some tea, Miss Nichols?” Alfred asked as he stood from his desk in the Bat Cave to get some.
“Yes, please,” Sarabi replied while she rested back into her chair.
“Milk-”
“With 3 sugars, yes, Miss Nichols I remember how you like your tea,” Alfred smiled from where he was and Sarabi chuckled.
Alfred and Sarabi had been working for 2 hours straight on the gauntlets and had made some progress. They knew how they were going to make them, they just needed to assemble them. Bruce was demanding, that was for sure, but at least he paid for everything. But being the billionaire he was, a couple hundred thousand was nothing.
Something Sarabi always wondered was how nobody knew he was Batman. Some simple profiling and common sense would reveal exactly who he was. With all the high-tech weapons he had, he must be wealthy in order to buy the materials needed. There was only one man in Gotham rich enough to pay for all those weapons and tools. He was hiding things like a Batmobile, plane and other automobiles and in order to hide those he needed a large, isolated property with a big bunker of sorts to hide it. He was also a 6 foot 3 white male with extensive martial arts training and computer science education. Simple profiling was all that Gotham Police Department needed. A profile would lead right back to Bruce.
“What is on your mind, Miss Nichols?” Alfred asked as he walked back over to the desk with two cups of steaming tea.
“How nobody can work out that Bruce is Batman. Like seriously? Some profiling would suffice. Thank you,” Sarabi took the cup of boiling tea and placed it on the desk.
“I most definitely agree but I think that secretly the police don’t want to reveal the Bat yet because he’s extremely helpful,” Alfred took a sip from the tea and hummed. Sarabi also took a sip and withheld the groan she could’ve let out.
“God, Alfred, did I miss your tea,” Sarabi commented with a small smile and watched Alfred’s eyes light up.
“I highly doubt it’s as good as the organic stuff in Italy,” Alfred scoffed before taking another gulp.
“Oh it certainly is,” Sarabi smirked and then took a massive sip of the delicious liquid. 
“Well, thank you, Miss Nichols,” Alfred nodded his head and Sarabi was going to correct him and tell him to just call her Sarabi but she realised it would do nothing.
Sarabi had been saying to Alfred for years to just call her Sarabi like everyone else but he never did. It was his sign of respect to her but that’s what kind of irked Sarabi. She did not see Alfred as below her and didn’t want him to think that. Sarabi hoped that Alfred knew she didn’t see him as below her because the thought saddened her.
Sarabi turned back to her notes on the gauntlets and when she looked up she noticed Alfred quickly look away from her. ‘He was looking at me’, Sarabi thought as she tried to hide the blush on her cheeks. She felt her cheeks start to fire up and confusion filled her brain. ‘Why am I trying not to blush? What the hell is happening?’ Sarabi tried to push his face out of her thoughts but it seemed to be stuck there like a splinter puncturing her psyche. 
“Are you ready to ask for Master Wayne’s opinion?” Alfred asked as the two stared at the trial gauntlets they had created.
6 hours had passed and they looked ready but the thought of how many hours spent on them made Sarabi tired. These weren’t the real ones and the real ones would take even more time. Alas, she knew it was her job to ready Bruce for whatever lay ahead.
“No,” Sarabi chuckled as Alfred pick up the phone in the cave and called Bruce.
“Master Wayne? Miss Nichols and I have come up with trials gauntlets if you wish to come down and see,” Alfred placed the phone back on the hook before he could even answer. 
“I don’t want to have to hear the whining,” Alfred wave his hand in a dismissive motion just as the elevator started moving. Sarabi snickered at Alfred’s catty but utterly hilarious approach to Bruce’s whiny tendencies.
“Here he is,” Sarabi nearly burst out laughing as he trudged into the cave. He looked fed up. Sarabi’s best guess is that a business deal didn’t go as planned, it was always put him in a bitter, foul mood. 
“This better be worth it,” he commented with a disgruntled groan and Alfred rolled his eyes.
“Master Wayne, you wanted us to make these and we did, so don’t complain,” Alfred ridiculed Bruce’s behaviour and he immediately stopped pouting. Sarabi marvelled at how Alfred could still have so much power over Bruce even when Bruce was a grown man. Bruce had a deep love and respect for Alfred and Sarabi knew he would never do anything to trouble the man. He was a stirrer and teased people but when Alfred told him to stop, he stopped. But, Sarabi noticed the small eye roll he gave when Alfred’s back was turned. Even as a 40-year-old man he still acted like a child.
“We haven’t tested them yet as we wanted you to see it first hand,” Sarabi presented the gauntlets and Bruce nodded.
“They look cool,” Bruce remarked as he looked upon the devices. They were black, obviously, and blended perfectly into his suit. 
“Well, Miss Nichols and I worked on them for about 8 hours so I hope they do. Let’s trial it shall we?” Alfred was clearly tired as he rubbed the bridge of his nose.
Alfred grabbed the alien gun sitting to his right and held it with precision. He angled it towards the gauntlet and Sarabi moved to Alfred’s side. She caught a whiff of Alfred’s scent which was a mixture of natural musk and a fancy cologne she didn’t recognise. She breathed in softly and sighed lightly at the pleasant smell. While Bruce drowned himself in cologne, Alfred let his natural aroma blend in with it. It was quickly becoming Sarabi’s favourite smell and this concerned her. ‘Why was everything about Alfred all of sudden alluring to me? Snap out of it!’ Sarabi thought as she realised what she was thinking. She was so concerned she was thinking those things about Alfred Pennyworth, a man about 50 years her senior. 
“You might want to move over, Master Wayne,” Alfred’s snarky comment snapped Sarabi out of her subconscious and back to the present. 
Bruce moved over to Sarabi’s side with a slight hint of annoyance. Alfred then shot the beam from the gun and it landed straight on the gauntlet. The gauntlet absorbed the energy and dissipated it. 
“Yes! Success!” Sarabi cheered while Alfred placed the gun back on the table.
“Well, that worked. Thank God,” Alfred mumbled the last part to himself.
“I think we did a great job, Alfred,” Sarabi praised with a small grin and revelled in Alfred’s small smirk in return. The smirk seemed innocent enough but it could be interrupted as holding something else. 
“I’m quite impressed, you want something to eat?” Bruce asked after a short investigation of the gauntlet.
“Yes, I am quite famished. What do you guys want me to cook?” Alfred queried without even a second thought.
“No, Alfred you’ve done enough work for today, we’ll order in,” Bruce replied quickly and didn’t give Alfred room to disapprove. 
“Pizza?” Bruce looked into Sarabi’s eyes and she nodded.
“I’ll eat anything,” Sarabi shrugged her shoulders, feeling very indifferent to what they ate.
“Great, I’ll go order some,” Bruce headed back up the lift as Alfred rolled his eyes.
“Takeaway food! All that grease will kill you,” Alfred condescended as Bruce’s large form retreated up into the house. 
“Like you’re cooking isn’t slowly giving us cancer,” Sarabi joked and watched as Alfred’s jaw dropped to the floor.
“Miss Nichols! I think my cooking is quite good,” Alfred defended himself and Sarabi broke down in giggles.
“Alfred, you’re cooking is amazing! I’m just poking fun!” Sarabi reached for her empty coffee cup just as Alfred’s did and they touched. As soon as their hands made contact, they both withdrew quickly.
“Apologies, Miss Nichols,” Alfred moved his hand up to fix his glasses and Sarabi noticed the light twinkle in his beautiful eyes. It wasn’t much, it was only a small glint of something but it was something. Sarabi picked up the coffee cup and cleared her throat from the lump that had formed.
“No, it’s fine Alfred, shit, I mean stuff, happens,” Sarabi stuttered before making her way to the elevator to avoid more embarrassment. She could feel her cheeks glow from excitement but also nerves. 
She pressed the button as Alfred walked up behind her. He stood slightly behind her and just close enough so that Sarabi could feel his breath on her neck. He didn’t say anything but his presence was enough to elicit an anxious but exhilarated feeling. 
The elevator landed on the floor and Alfred allowed her to walk in first. ‘Always a gentleman’, Sarabi thought to herself. The two, without saying a word, rode the elevator back up. Sarabi had to force herself to not look at Alfred, no matter how hard it was. Once they were up in the house, Sarabi made her way to her bedroom as fast as she could.
She took off her jacket and shoes, suddenly feeling very hot. Her body warmed up as she laid down and tried to calm her racing heart. Sarabi looked up the beige ceiling and contemplated everything in her life.
She was finding Alfred attractive. Not just his looks but his being. His scent, his voice and this was a problem. Sarabi had never been attracted to many people save for Bruce at one point and some kid from her part-time orphanage but she definitely never saw herself liking Alfred, of all people. When she left for Europe, Alfred was just her friend and work partner but now he was something more, well, to her at least. 
Sarabi came to the conclusion that her taste in men had changed.
Considerably.

Love is fire
Maxwell Lord x Reader 
Summary: Y/N is saving up to attend the university of her dreams,she is shocked to find out that her father got her a job as Maxwell Lord’s assistant. Y/N can’t stand him but soon enough they become infatuated with each other.
Warnings: Swearing. 
A/N : Hello everyone. I’m an absolute simp for Max Lord. I hope y'all like this and want me to continue. Feedback is appreciated and remember to let me know if you want to be tagged.
Tumblr media
“I’m sorry Wyndham but there’s nothing to do, I just don’t have an opening at the moment.”
“That’s okay, Mr.Lord I was just hoping that maybe there would be a place here for my y/n I have worked here for years and I was kind of envisioning the same thing for her.”
Wyndham had been Maxwell's personal driver since he was 40 and Maxwell only 20, now that he was 65 the time came for him to go home indefinitely at the end of his shift today.
“Mr.Lord, I have them on the phone for you.” said his redhead assistant Anna. Who was visibly uncomfortable in her high heels.
“Are you alright Anna?” asked Wyndham noticing her uncomfortable walk.
“Oh yes thank you, I just can’t wait for this one to finally come out, he’s making my feet swell like crazy,” said Anna as she looked down at her swollen belly.
Max rolled his eyes at interaction.
“Right Wyndham I need to take this call I’ve been waiting for it all week, I’ll see you later then. Remember it’s straight home tonight.”
“Of course Mr.Lord.”
Wyndham and Anna took their leave and left Max to do his job, which seemed like lately, it was only screaming at people.
X
You sighed as you wiped down the sticky counter top, you couldn’t believe that it was the fifth time a child had knocked over their drink on your shift. Every time you reminded yourself to never have children.
“Y/N when you’re done there can you please come to help me in the back ?”
“Yes, Charlie I’ll be there in a minute,” you answered.
Charlie was your boss but also your best friend. He’s the one that got you your waitressing job after you finished high school together.
His family owned the cafe where you worked. Your family didn’t have enough money to send you to the university of your dreams so you decided you’d make the money yourself. It was proving to be more difficult than you initially thought.
“What’s up?” you asked Charlie.
“Are we going out tonight or what? This week has been exhausting and I need a distraction.”
“You can say that again but unfortunately not tonight, it’s my dads last night of work and I want to be there when he gets home.” You said smiling sadly.
Charlie sensed your change in mood and hugged you.
“Hey, cheer up. It’s the 80’s anything can happen, just don’t give up yet.”
“My parents are old, and now my dad won’t be bringing back money anymore, my mum is getting tired of looking after kids all day and now I’ll have to start helping with bills. I don’t mind doing it but this just isn’t how I saw my plan going yah know?” tears were spilling down your face at this point and Charlie pulled you in tighter.
“Listen, you’ve got this. If there is anybody that can do this, it’s you. I’ve never seen you fail at anything and I won’t have you start now.”
“I love you so much,” you said as you held him closer.
“I love you too babe.”
X
“You ready Mr.Lord?” Asked the elderly man.
“Always,” replied Max as he got into the back seat of his limousine.
Wyndham got into the car and adjusted his mirrors for the last time. He put on his driving hat. His eyes meeting Max’s in the rearview mirror.
“Going home, Mr Lord”
Maxwell only nodded as the car took off. He’s heard those words for over 25 years and now it’s suddenly stopping. His new driver will be picking him up on Monday morning and he sighed at the thought of having to get to know someone all over again.
The city was alive with teenagers partying, adults dancing and kid’s at the movies. Sometimes he wondered...
X
The view of The Lord mansion came into view as the large iron gates opened. The doubted rooted in the middle of the drive-in looking especially beautiful with the recently added lights. The head housemaids idea. Agatha practically raised Max since his parents were always away for business.
Wyndham and Agatha were about the only people Max could stand. Well, and of course the exception of his assistant Anna and maybe just maybe his Gardner but he never really saw him all that much but he reminded him of one of the friends he has as a child. Heck, he didn’t even know his name. Alec maybe? Or Rodney?
Wyndham opened the door for Maxwell and swiftly closed it behind him again.
“Well Sir, it was a privilege working for you. I’ll never forget how good you were to me.” The old man’s eyes turned glasses as he took off his hat, handing it over to Max.
“Keep it please, it won’t be same in somebody else. Are you sure I can’t give you any kind of compensation?”
“No Sir please we’ve been over this, I’ve managed to put away a sum of money each month, I couldn’t take any more.”
“This doesn’t feel right Wyndham, is there anything I can do? Anything at all.”
“Well, perhaps there is one thing...”
X
“YOU GOT ME A JOB AS MAX LORD’S ASSISTANT?” you were fuming.
“Oh come on Y/N this could be your big break,” said your dad trying to cheer you up.
“My big break? Dad, I’m not working for that prick.”
“Hey you watch your mouth, that prick is who paid your school fees and fed you your whole life.”
“I know it’s just...I’ve never liked him, he’s so cold and have you seen him on tv? He’s so full of himself and he doesn’t know what to do with all that money and...”
“Didn’t you use to have a crush on him? You would see his commercials and go all read.” said your mother from across the room.
“MOTHER !!!”
“Listen, honey, just give it a chance. It’s good money and it will look great on any university application.”
“Your father is right Y/N just see how it goes, we would never force you to stay if it’s unpleasant.”
You never could say no to your parents and half of the time they were right.
“What if I take the job but work at the cafe at nights with Charlie?”
“You could do that but won’t that be exhausting?” questioned your mother.
“Being a personal assistant can be a lot of work especially for Mr.Lord.”
“Maybe your right, I’ll go down to the cafe tomorrow and talk to Charlie. How did you get me this job anyway?”
“Well, his current assistant is pregnant and is going on leave soon. When I dropped him off tonight I asked him.”
“And how did he react ?” you hated that you were curious.
“Well he wasn’t surprised but since it’s only temporary he agreed, he mentioned sometime about how he cannot wait to meet you.”
“There she goes all red again.” said your mother giggling.
“Stop bothering the child Lillian.” said your dad grinning at your mother. Enjoy your embarrassment equally as much.
“Okay fine I’ll do it but if he gets on my nerves I’m quitting.”
X
“What on earth are you wearing ?!” Charlie practically had a heart attack.
“What do you mean this is all I had? I wore it to a christening.”
You shyly pulled down the hem of your dress to get the dress to cover your knees.
“We’re you the one being christened?”
“Oh shut up.”
“Okay listen if you were leaving me to work for Max Lord then you can’t go in looking like that. They will eat you alive. It’s business not pancakes.” said Charlie as he desperately tried to put your hair up.
“What do you suggest?” You asked defeated.
“We'll start by curling your hair if you are going to wear it loose or at least pin it up. Your make up shouldn’t be all over your white-collar and it’s the 80’s your allowed to wear pants, get rid of that dress and maybe buy a pencil skirt.”
“With what money Charlie? I can’t just make a new wardrobe appear.”
“I’ll tell you what. I know this cute thrift place downtown, I’ll take you there and give you your last paycheck early. Sides you get a gift as a thank you for your service yah know.” said Charlie as he grinned at you.
If it wasn’t for Charlie you probably would be a lost cause.
“Okay fine, you and me after work okay. I need your advice if I’m gonna take over the business world.”
Both of you started laughing. Your laughter stopped however when you saw Max’s commercial on the TV that was in the kitchen of the cafe.
“Shoot I’m late, I gotta go. See you later.”
“There she goes.” Mumbled Charlie as he watched you run off.

“Being late isn’t exactly a good first impression Y/N.” said Anna as her eyes landed on you.
“I know I’m sorry I lost track of time. Has he asked about me yet ?”
“You’re in luck, he’s not in today. He’s away for business he’s out the whole week. That’s good because if he saw you in that outfit he’d probably send you home.”
“He’d send me home for wearing a short dress what a - “
“No don’t even go there, he’s not like that, he’d send you home because you have terrible taste in fashion,” said Anna as she gave you a stern look.
“This is not an easy job but I trust in you. I’ll show you the basics today and then at the end of the week you’ll be starting on your own.”
The idea was scary. Would you be able to cope all alone in a big office? The one upside though was that Max’s assistant had their own little office away from the other workers which mean nobody could stare at you the way they did when you came up.
At least you could go shopping with Charlie after work, you didn’t want to admit it but you wanted to make a good impression now that you knew you had a second chance. Maybe your parents were right. This could be good for you.
X
Monday morning came zooming than you would have hoped. Your thrifting with Charlie went well and at least now you had a decent enough outfit.
Why did you even want to make a good impression, don’t you loathe this man?
Maybe it was just to avoid the uncomfortable stares from your co-workers. Everyone here looked like they belonged somewhere like they had to succeed.
To be honest, you felt intimidated walking to your office, maybe this wasn’t a good idea, maybe you should just go home and -
“Ohf, I’m so sorry I didn’t look where I was going.” you apologized.
Your bright e/c eyes traveled up to meet the dark brown ones of the man you had just bumped into. It was him. Max Lord.
“That much is clear.” His words sounded forced, almost like he didn’t even want to waste his time talking to you.
“I...I -“
“Out with it girl.”
“I'm new I’m filling in for Anna.” you managed to string together a sentence while still locking eyes with his.
“Oh yes, I was told you’d be here. Uh, why are you standing about? You know where to go.”
“Yes of course.” You muttered.
“Also, why don’t you get me some hot coffee. I’ll be in my office. Knock before entering.”
And just like that, he walked off. People seemed to be in awe of him, you couldn’t blame them, so were you.
You hurried down to the cafeteria and got Max his coffee, luckily Anna had shown you how to make it. No sugar, no milk, no cream no nothing.
“Black, like his soul.” Anna’s words came back to you. She chuckled when seeing your fearful face.
“I’m only joking, he isn’t all that bad. Just don’t cross him and by no means be a smart mouth.”
You wondered what she had meant by that, why would anyone want to talk back to Max in the first place?
You timidly knocked on his office door and entered when you heard his authoritative voice permitting you.
“Here’s your coffee Mr.Max.”
He looked amused at you, not in a good way.
“Mr.Max? Honestly are you that nervous, it’s pathetic.”
“So just Max then ?” And there it was. It’s his fault he made you want to talk back.
It was your turn to look amused as he almost choked on his coffee.
“Cat got your tongue, Max?” For God’s sake why couldn’t you stop talking.
“You may call me Mr.Lord or Sir if the former is going to be a struggle for you.”
“I guess we’ll have to see.”
You turned on your heels and made for the door, ready to go stick your head in a hole.
“Were you this much trouble working at that pathetic little cafe ?” He spat back.
“Oh, much more Sir.”

Legally Ginger - Prologue (PG-13, Romione)
Now, for something totally different...
Title: Legally Ginger
Chapter 1/9
Rating: PG-13 (I use fuck more than the MPAA allows for PG-13 but that's a stupid rule - there's no explicit content)
Pairing: Romione endgame
Summary: When Ron Weasley's college girlfriend declines his proposal because he doesn't meet her standard for future husband, he decides comes up with a plan to let her see him in a new light.
Notes: This is an AU Muggle reimagination of Legally Blonde. It's very different than anything I have ever written - and my first chapter story. I intend to update each Monday.
Thank you to adnei for all of her beta feedback!
While I really enjoy Legally Blonde, it has some things that need a bit of updating or calling out in the year 2021. This fic will attempt to do those things but not lose the fun and fluffiness of the concept.
Also... I love the pop culture/time capsule references of the movie so plan to see that same vibe in this fic. If any of them are unclear to you, let me know in the comments because I love to talk pop culture!
Finally, lots of our favorites are scheduled to appear throughout the story - I eagerly anticipate all guesses as to who will be who!
Disclaimer: Neither Harry Potter or Legally Blonde or any of their characters are owned by me and are not being used for profit.

“Hey Tim!” Ron Weasley shouted, raising his hand to greet the guy behind the coffee cart but not breaking his stride.
“Hey Ron! Thanks for that recommendation. She loved it!”
Ron grinned and kept on running his recreational route that wove through the Los Angeles campus of California University. Even though his cross country career had come to an end with the conclusion of his senior season this fall, he didn’t intend to let his personal records slip. In fact, he was almost working harder. If everything went according to plan tonight, he planned to be competing in the iconic Boston Marathon next April.
“Ron! We still on to study tomorrow?” shouted his chem lab partner Kelsey as he strode past her.
“Yep! We’re going to rock that test out!”
“Hi Ron!” he heard a few female voices chorus together as he passed the Zeta Beta house. Several girls were doing yoga out on the front lawn.
“Great form ladies!” he yelled back, grinning as he heard the giggles.
He grabbed his shirt to wipe his forehead and glanced at his watch. 4:30. He was approaching the house and he had time to do some cool down stretches, shower, check that they had enough brothers to cover the Animal Aid fundraiser tomorrow, send his Econ professor his problem set, and dress for dinner before he had to leave for the Delta Nu house.
He slowed to a jog as his feet hit the driveway. He took the porch steps two at a time before entering the house. Immediately, he was greeted by a snort.
“Pig! Good boy,” he greeted, scratching the pug behind his ears.
“Come on boy,” he said, starting up the house stairs to his room, Pig following dutifully behind. As president, he lucked out with his own room with an en-suite bathroom but as was typical for his life, it wasn’t empty.
“Hey brother brother!” two voices said.
Ron rolled his eyes at the twins. “That joke will never be funny.” Fred and George grinned, one sprawled on his bed and one in his desk chair.
“We just have this last semester to even make the joke. Afterwards, it’ll be pathetic,” Fred said.
“That 40k is so close I can taste it,” said George.
His twin brothers were two years older than him, however, they’d dropped out after their sophomore year to open a retail shop selling joke and novelty items. They quickly realized they were more interested in conducting their own research and development; manufacturing their own products to distribute and sell. It was certainly more profitable. In order to get the seed money, they returned to college after two years. Their schooling, like Ron’s, was financed by his Aunt Muriel and upon receiving their bachelors degree, Muriel also handed over a $20,000 cash gift. The crotchety old broad put a lot of value on their schooling.
“And little Ronniekins is going to spend his on a girl,” Fred teased. It was then that he noticed Fred was fiddling with the small gray ring box that had previously been hidden in Ron’s sock drawer. He moved to snatch it back but Fred tossed it across the room to George.
Ron frowned. “First, I’m not spending it all on a girl. Part of it will be for the wedding and the rest I’ll save for a down payment on a house. Maybe not in Boston because we may not stay there after she finishes law school.”
“Oh yes, Bah-stan,” George mocked in a truly terrible accent.
“Yes. She’s sure that it’ll happen. She’s a legacy or something like that. I hope so because I think Boston Beer Company is going to make me an offer.”
“Free Sam Adams? I’ll take it,” Fred nodded.
“Secondly,” said Ron. “She’s not just a girl.”
The twins groaned. “Ugh, Ronnie, there’s no free beer yet. I can’t listen to this sober.”
Ron rolled his eyes.
“I have to ask,” started George. “Are you sure about this? You’re so young and it hasn’t been that long. You could still go to Boston with her without getting engaged.”
While it was annoying to get another “you’re too young” speech, it wasn’t often that his brothers asked him a serious question. “I’m sure. She’s the one.”
“Well then,” said George, flipping the box to him. “Go get her.”
A few hours later, he was shifting nervously in his seat at their table at Chaudron Qui Fuitfont, playing with the same gray ring box in his pocket. The dinner course had been cleared and they were now waiting for dessert to arrive as well as the bottle of champagne he’d surreptitiously requested.
“Astoria, have I told you that you look absolutely breathtaking tonight?”
“Just three or four times,” she laughed.
“Well, I might tell you a few more,” Ron said.
“It’s not everyday that you put so much effort into a date. I had to deliver on my side as well,” Astoria replied.
“It’s appreciated,” Ron smiled. “I-I appreciate everything about you. How gorgeous you are, how driven… the past 18 months with you has really made me sit down and focus on what I want for my future, you know?”
“That’s great, Ron,” Astoria said, reaching across the table to give his hand a squeeze. She glanced around him. “I want another glass of Merlot.”
“Yeah. You know I’m in the final stages for jobs at three companies,” he said.
“Mmm,” she said distractedly.
“Including Boston Beer Company,” he added.
“That’s a reputable company. Although make sure the job isn’t on the Truly brand. They’ll never get the market from White Claw. Mark my words, they’ll fizzle in two years.”
“Astoria, I see my future with you.”
She looked up at him sharply. “What?”
“Yes. I love you. I’m ready to start the next stage of our relationship. Astoria - ” Ron stood up, pulling the ring box out.
“No.”
“Will you marry me?” Ron asked, kneeling next to her.
“No, now get up.”
Ron’s blood suddenly ran cold. “Wha-what?”
“I said, no, now sit down.” He numbly followed her direction.
“Ron,” Astoria sighed. “Oh, honey, I’m sorry.”
“But… why?”
Astoria gave him a pitying look. “Look, we have had so much fun. You’re a great guy.”
“Great guy? You told me you loved me,” he hissed, trying to keep his voice low to avoid more embarrassment.
“And I do. As a college boyfriend. You are a great college boyfriend. You’re president of the second best fraternity on campus so you get all the best party invites. You’re on the cross country team so I can tell everyone I’m dating a Division I athlete, but you aren’t in one of those sports where it like, takes up all your time. You had a cool internship, everybody on campus loves you because you volunteer and help and you’re nice to everyone, even the janitors. You’re sweet and you’ve got a great body and you… you know,” she dropped her voice now “always deliver on what’s promised. You’ve been the perfect person to spend the last few semesters with.”
“I… I don’t understand what the problem is. I sound great from what you’re saying,” Ron seethed, frustration clear in his tone.
“I need a man for the next part of my life. Not a frat boy, not even if he doesn’t exactly fit the stereotype. I’m going to Harvard Law School in the fall. Do you understand how big of a deal that is?”
“Yes! That’s why I am pursuing a job in Boston. To be with you.”
“At a beer company.”
“I’m not opening a bar with my buddies. It’s a research and development role at a major corporation!”
“You have a degree in food science,” Astoria replied, rolling her eyes.
“It’s not like we spend all our time eating. It’s a real field. I got an A in Organic Chemistry.”
“Org Chem with Murphy. The serious students take it with Professor Kettle.”
Ron just gaped at her.
“If I’m going to be a federal judge by the time I’m 40, I need to stop dicking around. And I’m sorry, you’re not a Marty Ginsberg.”
“Yeah, well, I’m not an Armie Hammer either. Feels like there’s some wiggle room between those two extremes.”
“You’re a great guy. And I’m sure you’ll be a great husband to a marketing specialist or a pharmaceutical sales rep. And maybe if I was going to go to Wayne State or Northwestern, things would be different. But this is Harvard Law. There are just… expectations that any potential spouse meet a certain intellectual bar. Or at least a social bar. I mean, my sister is engaged to a Kennedy!”
At that point, the waiter approached the table with their desserts. Astoria stood up. “I’m really sorry. I’ll just call an Uber.” She paused and kissed him on the cheek before exiting the dining room.
“Uh, should I wrap these to go?” asked the waiter as Ron watched Astoria leave.

Home Isn’t Just A Place | Steve Rogers x Reader
Summary: When Colonel Phillips himself delivered the letter stating the love of your life (and best friend since 5 years old) was dead, you were more than devastated. You were still mourning the loss of your fiancé, mindlessly fiddling with the ring on your finger, when a much harsher knock rang at your door. You expected it to be perhaps your sister or a delivery boy. What you certainly didn’t expect was for your fiancé, who you were told was dead, to be standing at your doorstep.
Warnings: Swearing, Angst, Crying
Word Count: 2.38K
A/N: Hope this meets your standards! I tried my best with this one and i hope you enjoy it! Just a reminder that I will always be accepting requests! I will be writing a Part 2 to this, so stay tuned!
Tumblr media
“It’s fine guys! I can cook something in the apartment!” You speak, the men on either side of you giving you a small glare.
“It’s our last night, (Y/N/N). We wanna make it special before you’re alone in the apartment.” Steve mentions, wrapping his arm around your waist. You’re still taller than him, but it’s the thought that counts, right?
“That restaurant isn’t that good anyway.” You whisper, trying so hard to hide the disappointment in your voice. You’d been looking forward to sitting in that restaurant since it opened, and when Bucky and Steve said they were taking you, that meant you could finally get a chance. That is, until you got there, and they didn’t have your reservation.
“Doll-” Bucky starts, soon being cut off by your voice.
“Guys. It’s fine, really.”
“No, it’s not (Y/N)! We wanted to treat you to something special, and now it looks like we’re having cabbage fuckin’ stew for dinner… again.”
“Or,” You pause, lifting your arm to point at the sign hanging off of the corner store at the end of the street. “We could get some food from Stan’s. It’s still open and we have enough money for some hot dogs.” The two men agree shortly after and the three of you quicken your pace, eager to get some food in your stomach. The small bell above the door rings through the air as the three of you walk in, the owner walking out from the back.
“Steve, Bucky, (Y/N)! Nice to see ya! What can I get for you?” Stan asks, his smile always bringing comfort to you three.
“Three hot dogs and three cokes please!” You respond, offering him a small smile yourself. He nods and taps some button on the register, pulling the crank before turning his head back up to you.
“Thirty cents please.” You start digging in your wallet when a hand stops you, and your head snaps to meet Steve’s eyes before he starts digging in his own wallet. He hands the man 30 cents before discreetly grabbing your hand, a small chuckle leaving your lips. Stan walks to the back and returns with three hot dogs in hand. He sets them down on the counter before reaching in the fridge and pulling out the drinks. You take them and thank him before walking out the door, Steve and Bucky following you out with their own.
“Let’s go to the docks! Watch the lights in the city!” You propose, turning back to face the two men. They agree and you all walk down to the docks, finishing your food and drinks shortly after getting there.
“Sorry, it had to end like this, (Y/N/N).”
“Meh, I liked this ending better. At least this way I can say fuck.” You giggle, turning back to look at your boyfriend. A soft melody fills your ears and you search for the source of the music. You soon find it as a band plays at an oceanside restaurant, where people are probably dining on the finest steaks and champagne, but you’re happy right where you are. Steve’s hand grabs yours and he smiles, both of his hands wrapping around your waist.
“Dance with me, doll.” You nod before placing your hands around his shoulders, the two of you slightly swaying to the music. Bucky lets out a short laugh before leaning against a lamppost. Steve grabs your hand and spins you around, the blue dress flying up around your waist as he twirls you in his arms. Your eyes drift closed as he continues to spin you, a laugh bubbling out of your mouth, and you finish turning and open your eyes to see Steve on one knee.
“Oh.” Your hands fly up to cover your mouth and you see Bucky smiling out of the corner of your eye as Steve pulls out a ring.
“I know, I know it isn’t much, but it’s what we could afford.”
“Wha-Whe-How?” You whisper.
“Well, we saved up for a bit.”
“I think you’re supposed to give a speech now, Stevie.” Bucky comments. 
“I’m getting there!” Steve responds, making you let out a hoarse laugh before you start choking on your sobs. “Doll, you are the best thing to ever happen to me, Buck being a close second. You’ve always been there for me when I’m sick, which is a lot. I wanna be with you forever. I want to have kids with you, I want to give you the best white-picket-fence life I can. I swear to love you for the rest of our lives, if you’ll be mine. What do ya say doll?” By this time, your hands have migrated from your mouth to your chest, and you wipe your eyes while nodding your head, choking out a short “yes” before Steve slides the ring on your finger. As he stands up, you begin to cry harder as you pull him into a bear hug. He pulls away and you place both hands on his shoulders, looking at him sternly.
“You better come back to me, you hear me?”
“I promise I will, doll.”
“No, I need better than a promise.”
“I swear on my life, dollface. Besides, I wouldn’t leave my best girl behind.”
~~~
You’ve seen all the adverts and movies about the one and only Captain America. People see him as a hero, as the man who punches Nazis straight in the face and kisses babies, but you still see him as the little guy from Brooklyn who couldn’t run the mile from fourth grade on. Yes, you missed your fiance very much, but you had faith that he would keep his promise and come home after the war. A few months after Bucky and Steve left, you picked up a waitressing job in a mom-and-pop diner on the weekends and weeknights alongside your job as a science teacher. Bills aren’t going to pay themselves, and Bucky and Steve aren’t here to help you. You walk in the door, returning home from your morning shift at the diner, planning on quickly changing clothes before running out and volunteering at the animal shelter, something you always did on Saturdays. You throw on a simple dress, the pale yellow glowing in the sunlight streaming in from the window. Your plans suddenly change when a knock rings at your door.
“One second!” You yell, finishing pulling up the zipper on the back of your dress before walking over to the door, opening it to see Colonel Phillips himself. “Colonel Phillips.”
“Miss (Y/L/N). May I come in?” He asks, the solemn look on his face causing an uneasy feeling in your stomach.
“Of course, sir.” You open the door a little bit wider and he enters the apartment.
“You may want to sit.” You follow his instructions and sit yourself down at the kitchen table, now noticing the letter in his hands. “I wrote it all out on paper, but I also figured I should tell you in person.” He pauses, taking a deep breath. “Captain Rogers crashed a plane into the ice to save the lives of millions of people yesterday morning. I would have gotten here earlier but there were some complications with the plane.”
“No.” You mumble, standing up to directly face the colonel.
“He has been declared Killed in Action, along with James Barnes.” Your head snaps up at his comment, tears already pooling in your eyes.
“What-what do you mean they’ve both been killed in action? What-” A sob rising in the back of your throat cuts you off and you have to steady yourself against the table. Phillips places the letter on the table as you try to quiet your sobs. He quietly nods his head before turning to the door, about to step out when you choke out a short “wait”. Colonel Phillips turns around as you compose yourself, wiping the tears off your face.
“Yes ma’am?”
“Am I allowed to give you a hug?”
“Yes ma’am.” You wrap your arms around him and place your head on his shoulder, the colonel hugging you back shortly after. The two of you pull away and you whisper a small “thank you sir” before he nods and walks out the door. You turn around and grab the letter, ripping it open before focusing on the words carefully typed on the page:
Miss (Y/N) (Y/L/N)
437 West Clermont Street
Brooklyn, New York, USA
11201
I regret to inform you that both Captain Steven Rogers and Sergeant James Barnes have been killed in action in service of their country. As you know, Captain Rogers freed over 200 men across enemy lines in Azzano, Italy. He then formed a squadron, the Howling Commandos. That squadron took down more enemy bases than any other in history. It is with deepest condolences that we regret to inform you than on Saturday, February 19th, Sergeant James Barnes fell out of a moving train while defending Captain Rogers. On Friday, February 25th, Captain Rogers crashed a plane into the Arctic in order to save over three million lives from nuclear bombings. Not only has America lost a soldier, America has also lost a hero.
Deepest regards,
Colonel Chester Phillips
A loud sob erupts from your mouth as you throw the letter on the table, your hands quickly covering your mouth.
“No. Nonononono, they can’t be dead. I can’t- I can’t do this alone.” You back up against the wall, slowly sliding down as your fingers thread through your hair. It’s only when you look back at the ring on your finger that your tears of pain turn to those of anger. “YOU PROMISED!” You scream, not giving a damn if the neighbors can hear you. Your head falls into your hands as you curl up into a ball, your sobs echoing through the now eerily empty house.
“You promised.
~~~
It was a nice funeral. A lot of people you knew were there. Dum-Dum, Gabe, Jim, and Monty came, while Jaques sent his condolences. It was small, but Steve would have liked it. Yeah, you sobbed, but so did everyone else. You sit numbly in your house, the walls no longer filled with laughter, the floors no longer covered in flour and paint, now only scuff marks from your pacing panic attacks. You’re mindlessly fiddling with your ring when a knock sounds at your door, this one sounding louder and overall harsher than the other ones you’d been experiencing for the past week. You stand up and walk over, not caring to check the peephole before opening it. And standing there, is the man you were told crashed a plane into the arctic.
“Wha-”
“Hi, doll.” You slowly start shaking your head before walking away from the door, simply leaving it open.
“No, no. Nonono. You crashed a plane into the arctic. Your signal went dead. You were presumed dead! I’m going mad, I’ve gone absolutely bonkers and now I’m imagining the love of my life is in my living room when he’s buried somewhere in the Arctic!” You rant to yourself, tears slowly gathering in your eyes. You stop when Steve puts both hands on your shoulders, stabilizing you and forcing you to make eye contact with him.
“God, is this what happened after I crashed?” He mumbles, looking up and down at your frantic form. Your clothes have become a little looser, your hair a little thinner, the bags under your eyes just a bit more noticeable. But that’s not the only thing that’s changed. You look at Steve and notice he looks… different. He looks older and more exhausted.
“You aren’t my Steve?”
“Sit down doll, I have a lot of explaining to do.”
~~~
“So you’re from-”
“Yeah.”
“But you still-”
“Mhm.”
“And I’m still-”
“Yep.”
“But wouldn’t this-”
“Nope.”
“Huh. And this Thanos dude he-”
“Eliminated 50% of all living beings. Yes.”
“And you’re back here because you’re delivering the stones back to their original places in time and wanted to see me?”
“Yeah pretty much.”
“Huh. Okay.”
“So, can I have this dance?” He stands up and reaches his hand out to you. You smile and take it, the man pulling you into him. You notice as the two of you start swaying that he’s suddenly more relaxed, and that he’s definitely gotten more muscular over the years. You dance for a little while longer before he tilts your chin up, meeting your lips for a gentle kiss. “God I missed you doll.”
“I missed you too.” The two of you stay silent a little longer before he pulls back slightly, a serious look on his face. Uh oh.
“Come back with me.”
“I’m sorry, what?”
“Come back with me. To 2023.”
“Stevie, I can’t. I have so many responsibilities, and it could mess up the timeline and-”
“Nope. Already checked with the Ancient One. Said it should be fine as long as no one knows about it.”
“Oh.”
“Plus, you can meet my friends, and we can finally get married, and Bucky will-”
“Wait what? Bucky’s alive?”
“Oh yeah, he was captured by HYDRA but we got him back.”
“You’re gonna need to catch me up on everything.”
“So that’s a yes?”
“Fine. I’ll come with you, but if I throw up it’s your fault.”
“Deal.”
~~~
“I’m trying to bring him back!” Banner yells, flicking switches and pressing buttons on the dash. Bucky bites at his cuticles, something he does when he’s nervous, also something you used to yell at him for. The launchpad starts whirring again and both Bucky and Sam’s heads shoot up at the noise, not familiar with it at all.
“Um, is that supposed to happen?” Sam asks.
“Only when there’s more than one body being transported.” Banner mumbles, pressing a few more buttons. “Okay. Bringing him back in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.”
“AH-oomph.” Bucky’s eyes widen as his brain registers the yellow dress, the sparkling eyes, the dazzling smile.
“(Y/N)?!” He yells, giving both you and Steve a confused look. You sit up on the launchpad and look around, not familiar with any of your surroundings.
“Hiya Buck! Oooh, love the hair! Nice to see it change from the ol’ buzzcut.”

can i get a jensen ackles where he has six girls and he finds out he's going to have another daughter
Another One
Tumblr media
Pairing: Jensen Ackles x Reader
Summary: Jensen is trying to balance having 6 daughters in the house when his wife comes in with exciting news.
Warnings: Pregnancy, Fluff, Slight Annoyance/Anger, Period mentioned
A/N: All daughters names are from me. Enjoy!
Jensen - 42 YN - 40 Annalise - 13 Harleigh - 9 Willow - 7 Ivy - 5 Isabella - 2 (twins) Kiera - 2 (twins)
***ASK OPEN***
*LET ME KNOW IF YOU’D LIKE TO BE TAGGED*
Cherry Blossom Asks Masterlist
Jensen was sitting in probably the most uncomfortable chair built for a 42-year old man. A plastic tiara sat on top of his head, his nails were painted pink, plastic jewelry on his neck, wrists, and fingers, and he was sipping fake tea from a plastic mug.
His daughters, Harleigh, Willow, and Ivy, sat around him also dressed up in tiaras and jewelry. They were giggling with their pinkies high in the air, drinking their fake tea as well.
Willow cleared her throat, "Miss Harleigh, may I have another cup, please?"
Harleigh held up the empty tea pot and nodded, "Of course Miss Willow," she said as she poured the tea.
Ivy held out her cup to her older sister, "Me too!"
Harleigh waved her finger in the air, "No, no, Ivy. You have to ask nicely. Like Willow did."
Ivy rolled her eyes, a trait from her mother, and sighed, "Harleigh-"
"That's Miss Harleigh, Ivy. It has to be proper," Harleigh interrupted.
Ivy clenched her teeth, "Fine. Miss Harleigh, may I have more tea?"
Harleigh held up the tea pot with her pinky out, "Say please."
Ivy growled out a "Please" to her sister. Harleigh nodded and pour the tea into the mug.
Harleigh looked to Jensen and smiled, "Tea, Daddy?"
Jensen shook his head, "No, thank you baby girl. I'm a little full on tea. I need to save room for dinner later on."
There was a knock at the door and Jensen turned around to see Annalise standing there. She had her head down and one arm across her body holding the other.
"Anna, you okay?" Jensen asked.
She sighed, "Can I...can I talk to you for a second? It's, um, it's important."
Jensen turned to Harleigh, Willow, and Ivy, "Excuse me for a moment girls." He stood up, his knees popping several times and his back as well, and took off the jewelry and tiara. Setting them on the table, he turned to his oldest daughter and pointed out of the room, mentally telling her he'll follow her.
The two walked down the hallway and into Annalise's room. Annalise shut the door behind Jensen and leaned against it.
Jensen looked confused, "Honey, is there something wrong?"
Annalise looked up at Jensen with tears in her eyes, "Daddy, am I ugly?"
Jensen's eyes widened. It's going to be one of these days, he thought.
He walked up to Annalise and bent down to a knee and looked up at her, "Annalise, baby, why in the world would you think that?"
A tear slipped down her face. Jensen wiped it away. He tilted her chin up but she pulled away from him.
Annalise sighed, "All my friends have boyfriends. But I can't even get a guy to give me the time of day!"
Jensen rolled his eyes, Yep one of these days.
He stood up from his spot and walked over to her bed. Sitting down, he pat the spot next to him, telling his daughter to join him. Annalise walked over to Jensen and sat next to him, bringing her knees up to her chest.
Jensen laid a hand on her back and rubbed between her shoulders, "Annalise, this is not me being the overprotective Dad, but you are way too young for boys."
Annalise raised her voice, "But everyone else has a boyfriend!"
"And? That means nothing. You are a smart, beautiful, talented young lady. You're only 13. Do you know how old I was when I started dating your mother?"
Annalise shook her head.
Jensen chuckled, "I was 28-years-old."
Annalise's jaw hit the ground, "You were that old?"
Jensen squinted his eyes, "Hey now, I was not nor am I old. But yes, I was 28. You're still very young. Dating right now is fine, but having a boyfriend for the sake of having one isn't smart. Just wait, Prince Charming will come and sweep you off your feet one day," he turned away and mumbled the next part, "And I'll have to hunt him down and tell him I’ll destroy him if he hurts my girl."
Annalise smiled up at Jensen then hugged him around his waist, "Thanks Daddy. I knew you'd help me out. Mom just told me boys are overrated."
Jensen raised his eyebrows, "Speaking of Mom, where is she?"
Annalise shrugged her shoulders, "She said something about taking the twins out for a bit and picking up something from the bakery."
Just then, Harleigh, Willow, and Ivy burst through the door. They were all screaming at each other, Willow through her tiara on the ground, and Ivy looked as if she were about to burst into tears.
Jensen stood up and jogged over to them, "Hey now, what's going on?"
Harleigh turned to her father, "Ivy spilled the tea everywhere!"
Ivy yelled back, "Nuh uh! Willow did it!"
Willow raised her voice even higher than the other two, "There wasn't even any tea in the pot!"
Harleigh rolled her eyes, "It's imaginary tea, Willow! You have to use your brain, but you don't have one!"
"I do too! Besides, Ivy was the one who didn't even know how to use her manners!"
"I have manners! I just don't like to use them all the time!"
"Girls!" Jensen yelled.
The three girls looked up at their father. He sighed, his fists clenched at his sides.
"Why don't you three invite Annalise to your tea party? I'm sure she would like to have tea time with you. Right, Anna?" Jensen turned to his teenage daughter.
She rolled her eyes and smiled, "I guess I can make some time for tea."
Harleigh, Willow, and Ivy screamed and giggled in excitement. Annalise stood from her bed and walked over to her younger siblings. Willow handed her a tiara, which Annalise put on her head, and the 4 girls walked out of the room.
Jensen sulked and sighed. He rubbed his face and mumbled to himself, "I really hope the next baby is a boy."
He heard the front door shut and YN yell from downstairs, "Jay? We're back!"
Smiling to himself, Jensen jogged out of the room and down the stairs. He walked into the kitchen and saw YN standing there.
He walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her waist, "Well hello there, pretty lady."
YN blushed, "Jensen, stop it. Not in front of the twins."
He turned her around and bent to kiss her stomach, "Hello baby Ackles."
She giggled at Jensen, "You goofball."
Jensen kissed YN's cheek then bent down to his youngest daughters, "Hi Kiera. Hi Bella. Did you have fun with Mommy?"
The nodded their heads and Kiera spoke up, "We got cake!"
Isabella decided to answer as well, "And Mommy said it's special."
Jensen looked shocked, "You got cake?," he looked to YN, "What kind of cake?"
YN giggled, "Why don't you call everyone downstairs and we'll see what kind of cake it is?"
Jensen's eyes widened, "You mean that's the cake? The cake?"
YN nodded enthusiastically. Jensen laughed and picked up his wife, spinning her into a hug.
Jensen yelled up towards the stairs, "Girls, your mom brought cake! Come have a slice!"
Almost immediately, all 4 girls were running down the stairs and into the kitchen. Annalise sat down at the table, already knowing what was going on. Jensen had to get Harleigh, Willow, and Ivy to follow her lead.
YN grabbed the cake and sat it down on the table, holding a hand up to the girls, "Hold on. Let me get plates. Don't touch the cake!"
She jogged over to the pantry and got 8 paper plates. She also grabbed forks and a cake knife, and walked back to the table. Jensen put Kiera and Isabella in high chairs before sitting down.
YN handed him the knife, "Now hold on just one second. Let me get my phone." She grabbed her phone from her purse, turned on the camera and hit record. She waved at Jensen to get him to say something.
He cleared his throat, "Alright girls, time to find out if the next Ackles baby is a boy or a girl. What does everyone think?"
Annalise replied first, "Definitely a girl."
Then Harleigh, "A girl!"
Then Willow, "I hope it's a girl."
Then Ivy, "Well I hope it's a boy."
Jensen mumbled, "You and me both kiddo."
Kiera and Isabella both yelled out, "Girl!"
Jensen turned to YN, "And you honey?"
YN shrugged, "I happy either way. But I think it's a girl."
Jensen took a deep breath, "Okay, let's see." He sliced the cake on the end, his daughters leaning in to look. YN was shaking the camera from excitement.
Jensen took out the slice and his shoulders dropped.
Annalise screamed out, "I was right! It's a girl!"
All the girls at the table were screaming "It's a girl!" over and over. YN walked towards the cake with the camera before it moved to Jensen's face. He looked at YN with eyes that said Really? Another girl?
After a while, Jensen, YN, and their daughters were sitting at the table eating cake. Jensen picked at his for a bit, wishing the cake was blue and not pink.
Then Annalise spoke up, "Oh, Mom, I forgot to tell you. I started my period for the first time today."
YN clapped, "Oh, honey, you're a woman now!"
Jensen's face fell. He went white as his jaw dropped. He looked between Annalise and YN.
YN turned to Jensen and smiled, "Isn't that nice, Jay? Annalise is growing up."
"Mhmm, it's great," he replied. He shoved a fork into his cake and mumbled, "Just 6 more of those to go." ---------------------------------

The Burning Question
Summary: You and Bucky play a game while everyone else is away.  It ends different then either of you expected. 
Warnings: Dirty talking, cursing, adult topics, TONS OF FLUFF. 
If this gets popular, I wrote stories that continue from this, so if you like it, I will post the others!  This also my first fanfic, so let this get popular!  
Word count: 3k
Tumblr media
You had become an avenger two years ago.  You were discovered by Tony Stark during one of the Avengers missions.  They had infiltrated a HYDRA base that kept popping on the Avenger's radar for the high temperatures that were emitting from the building.  You volunteered to be experimented on since you had no friends and no family, and you thought you had nothing else to live for so why not be experimented on.  HYDRA put a serum in you similar to the Winter Soldier's but you also got the power to control fire.  You could fly, breathe and control fire to your will, and also had enhanced speed, agility, strength and fighting skills.  Tony, Nat, Steve and Bucky discovered you in an ice bath since you could overheat from your powers.  They immediately rescued you and nursed you back to health and trained you to become an Avenger.   
During the process, you had become close friends with everyone, especially with Nat, Steve, Sam and Peter.  You also developed feelings for Bucky since the moment he rescued you.  You loved everything about him, physically and emotionally.  But you didn't want to tell him fearing that it might damage the relationship you had with him.  After hiding it from him for two years, you knew you had to tell him soon.  And today seemed like the right time to.
Today was proving to be as boring as ever.  It was pouring outside, and you could hear the thunder from your bedroom.  You left the windows open because you always liked to look at the lighting, how it looked so chaotic, yet graceful.  You had your hair messed up, flayed out all over you and you were wearing a thin oversized T-Shirt and pretty revealing shorts.  You were sitting on your bed listening to music at 10pm when you heard something.  You could barely hear it and weren't sure if you were hallucinating, so you ignored it.  Then you heard the sound again, this time louder and realized someone was knocking at your door.
"Come in!" you shout over the music.  
Then a certain Super Soldier enters the room, in a white T-shirt and boxers.  His hair was lying on his shoulders, messy as always.  He leaned against the door for a minute, clearly unsure if you wanted him to enter or not.  You and him were friends, but not as close as you wanted to be though.  You talked during missions and when you and him were in the same room, but Bucky never just wanted to come into your room.  
"May I come in?" he asked.
"Oh yeah sure sorry!  Here, come sit!"  Then he plopped down on your bed.  
"Whatcha doin?" 
"Listening to music, there's nothing to do since nobody is here," you answer.  All of the Avengers were out.  Tony, Wanda, Sam, Vision and Clint left last week to go out on a mission in Wakanda and they weren't going to be back for another month.  Steve and Nat went on a separate mission a few days ago to Budapest to follow a lead they obtained on Brock Rumlow, and they were going to arrive the day before the other team came back.  Peter was still in school in Queens and spring break started on the day Steve and Nat were getting back, and he wasn't going to waste anytime in Queens.  He was coming straight up to the Compound.
"Yeah, pretty boring being all alone." he responded.
Suddenly, you have an idea, the best idea you have ever had.  You realized you and Bucky were alone, so this was the perfect time to tell him.  But you didn't want to tell him flat out, so through a game, like 50 questions, would be creative, fun and a lighthearted way to tell Bucky exactly how you felt.
"Hey I have an idea, do you want to play a game?  Since there's nothing else to do." you ask as you turn off your music.
Bucky becomes interested.  He only had short conversations with you, but he likes spending time around you.  So what better way to do that then play with you.
"Sure.  What did you have in mind?"
"Wanna play fifty questions?"
"Sure.  What are the rules?"
"Well, the rules are pretty simple.  You basically ask the person a question about anything, from personal to weird to funny.  The game is supposed to let you learn more about the other person.  The only major rule is that if you're unable to answer a question, you have take off a piece of clothing."  You smirk after you finish explaining.  Bucky lets out a quiet chuckle.
"I might be naked by the end of this, Y/N,"  Bucky sighs.  "Do you wanna go first?"
"Sure," you said.  "What's your favorite color?"
"Black.  What's your favorite animal?" he asks.
"A snow leopard.  Your favorite song?" you respond.
"Probably September by Earth, Wind and Fire."  he answers with a laugh.
"I can see why," you chuckle.
Bucky smiles back at you, partly annoyed.
"Oh, be quiet doll." he scolded playfully.  You blush at the nickname since he has never called you "Doll" before and you also think it's cute.  You think Bucky doesn't notice the slight shades of pink spread out on your cheeks, but he does and thinks it's adorable.
"What's your favorite movie?" he continues.
"5 Feet Apart.  If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you go?" 
"Romania seems pretty cool, with all of the castles and vampires and stuff."  Then out of nowhere, he tries to scare you.  It doesn't work since you are very hard to stare, but you just laugh at his foolish attempt while he sighs in embarrassment. 
"Go before I laugh any harder." you say, trying to stop yourself from laughing too much.
He giggles before he asks you his question.
"If you could live in any decade, which would you choose?" he asks.
"Either the 40's or 80's.  They seem like interesting decades," you answer.
"Any other reason for the 40's?" he smirks at you and raises his eyebrows.  You give him a glare in return, but that was one of your reasons for choosing that decade.  But you were definitely not going to tell him.
"Screw you Barnes!" you hit him playfully on his right arm and he doubles over in pain, obviously faking it. 
"Oh the pain!  The pain!  How could you do this to me?  I thought we were friends!" he howls.
"I thought you were the Super Soldier, not a baby," you tease him.  Then he lets out a laugh and sits back up again.
"It's your turn." he reminds you.
"Oh sorry.  Umm...  how old were you when you had your first kiss?" you ask.
He gives you that smirk again, just to mess with you.
"Any reason for that question, doll?" he asks.
"Answer my question, then I'll answer yours."
"Fine," Bucky sighs.  He looks down as he answers you.  "I was ten.."
You were shocked at first, but then gave him an applause.
"Wow, I know you are a ladies man, but dang man!  The ladies love you." you tease him.  He does a little bow and then laughs.
"How old were you?"
"I never had mine," you say.
Bucky got confused.  Why wouldn't you out of all people never have your first kiss?  You were smart, beautiful and amazing.  Any guy would be lucky to have their first kiss with you.
"What? Why not?" he asks, clearly confused.
"You can't ask two questions in a row, Bucky," you said, clearly trying to piss him off. 
He looks down, trying to compose himself.  Then he lifts his head up slowly, and looks at you with puppy dog eyes.  It's as if he is looking into your soul and you can't help but me mesmerized.
"Please?"  He begs like a kid asking for candy.
"You know I can't refuse those pretty eyes," you smile back at him.  Bucky blushed and laughed in return.
"Well, I just never found the right person, ya know?  Also, I don't think my powers will help that much."  You stop and you flick your hand like a match and your hand lights on fire.  Bucky and yourself sit there, in a trance by the fire in your hands.  You put the fire out with another wave of your hands.
"Ok Bucky, my turn.  Who is your celebrity crush?" you ask mischievously.  You knew Bucky was a very private person and was most likely to not answer, so the thought of him undressing in front of you was making your stomach do flips.  Bucky stares at you, in awe that you asked him that.  He rolls his eyes and looks at you.
"You went there," he said.
"Oh I did," you quip.
He sits there, knowing you want him to take off his shirt.  But he was a very determined person and knew he wasn't going to be naked before you were.
"I'm not going to undress that quickly doll, but good try." he adds, and you both share a quick laugh before he continues.  "Look, I'll tell you, but you can't tell anyone, especially Sam.  Steve doesn't even know this."
"Well, I'm honored Bucky and I won't break your trust," you mock.
He looks down again and starts to blush.  "Scarlett Johansson," he mumbles.
"Awww!!" you say.  "That's adorable!"
"Yeah, yeah," he rolls his eyes.  "Who is yours since you wanted to know mine so badly?" he adds with a smirk.
You groan in annoyance and Bucky looks at you, thinking he has this in the bag, but he knew you were a fighter and you would never give up that easily.  
"You little shit," you groan.  Bucky just sits there, smirking at you. 
"It's Sebastian Stan.  Just don't tell anyone Buck, please?" you beg.  He smiles at the nickname.  Only Steve called him that, and hearing it come from your mouth was refreshing.
"I promise I won't, doll.  I'm not that type of person.  Your turn again."
"Why did you come to my room?  And why did you choose to stay and play?  Normally, me and you aren't the closest of friends and you aren't the most talkative person.  I don't mean to sound rude.  But it's nice talking to you and being able to have a conversation that lasts more than five minutes.  I love learning more about you and seeing this side of you." you say and you blush at the last sentence.  
Bucky has to sit and think for a second about what he is going to say.  
"Well, there are a few reasons.  For starters, I couldn't fall asleep and I knew you were awake since I heard the music playing.  Second, we have been alone here for a few days and it's nice to have someone other than Steve to talk to about everything.  Third, you are my friend and I would never refuse you.  And lastly, I enjoy spending time with you and being around you in general."  he answers, slightly embarrassed.  You blush at the fact that he likes being around you and talking to you.  
"Aww, thanks Bucky." you gush. 
"Anytime, doll," he said.  He paused for a few seconds and started to smirk.  Then the smirk turned into a smile which turned into a chuckle.  A few moments later, he started laughing uncontrollably.
"You good there?" you questioned him.
"Yeah, I'm fine.  I just came up with a question I know you won't answer.  Haha!"
"Oh god.  Just say it." you sigh with a roll of your eyes.
"Ahh, ok.  Out of everyone on the team, who would you like to hook up with the most?" he asks and then starts laughing again.  Your mouth drops in disbelief.
"You asshole!" you shout.
Bucky keeps laughing, unphased at what you called him.       
"C'mon, you gotta answer, unless," he adds with a sly look at the end.  
"Fine, you win." you sigh and you start to put your hands under your shirt.  
Bucky rubs his hands together and licks his lips.  You take off the T-Shirt, revealing a black, lacy bra underneath.  Bucky stares at you, but in a completely different way.  He isn't looking at you like he normally does.  This time, he eyes you with lust.  His eyes burn into yours and side back down to your chest, eyeing you like you are his last supper.  He bites his lip and it sends a shiver down your spine.  He stares at you for a while, like he is under a spell and you start to mess with him.  You move your hands, playing with your hair and then slowly move them down from your neck to your chest.  He licks his lips again and moans quietly so you don't hear the satisfaction leaving his lips.  
"Like what you see, Buck?" you ask with an edge of seduction in your voice.  Bucky realized what he is doing and has to snap out of it.  He doesn't want to make the moment uncomfortable so he plays it off like nothing happened.
"Huh? What? Oh yeah, I'm good.  Was that your question?" he asks with a hint of sarcasm.
You knew he didn't hear what you asked him, knowing well that he was checking the crap out of you.  But, you secretly enjoyed him looking at you like this.
"I guess," you said.  "It's your turn again."
"What body part do you like the most on me?" he slyly asked.
"Well, to be honest there are a few," you reply.
"Care to share?" he said, interested in what you had to say.  
You had a ton of favorites, but your favorite was the one you would never tell him.
"For instance, your beautiful blue eyes.  Your amazing smile, your silky hair.  Your protective arms, mostly the metal one," you add and you notice little patches of pink popping up on the Winter Soldier's face.  "Your god-like abs and strong pecks and those thighs of betrayal."
You both laugh at the name of his thighs.  Bucky mostly notices the fact of how unashamed you are, and it definitely makes his heart flutter.  
"I'm glad you noticed them," he says, patting his thighs with pride.
"Well, I mean how could I not?  They are so big and they bulge out of your pants.  Sometimes I think they might rip!" you laugh.
Then, another devious question forms in your head.  You knew Bucky has a history with the ladies, and you knew he would never in a million years answer the question about to leave your lips.  You start to laugh, this time super loudly.  You roll back on to your pillows and curl up into a ball.  
"Oh, I have a great one!" you say, laughing at the same time.
"Don't be so sure," he said.
"Oh but I know you won't.  Hehe.  How many girls have you hooked up with and out of all of them, how many have you regretted?"  You are barely able to ask the question as you can't stop yourself from laughing.  
You look up and see Bucky giving you the death glare, and it makes you laugh even more.  He sighs and gets up, standing on the end of the bed.  He bit his lip at you again, and then you see his fingers glide along the hem of his shirt.  Then his fingers went underneath the shirt.  As he pulled off his shirt, he grunted and looked back at you.  As he was standing at the end of the bed, you thought this was a dream.  You couldn't believe he was standing there half naked.  
He looked like a living sculpture, his body chiseled to perfection.  Each muscle on his body was a work of art.  His abs were the first thing that caught your eyes, they looked to good to be real.  Your eyes lingered there for a bit and then moved up to his right arm, which had veins peeking out.  His arm was so big and it looked bigger than the metal one, and that was saying something since you knew how powerful that was.  You stared at his body for an uncomfortable amount of time and Bucky liked how your eyes lingered at each part of his body.  You can feel your skin burn up and have to breathe to try to cool yourself off.  Then Bucky did something he would have never done in front of any other girl.  He started to flex all of his muscles.  He made sure you looked at all of them, even the ones you didn't notice.  You cheered him on, clapping whenever he posed at a different angle or whenever he moved.  
"Welcome to the gun show doll!" he announced.
"Woohoo!  Yeah Buck, work it!" you cheered.  You both laughed and he continued to bulge out his muscles.  He stops when you throw your shirt at him and usher him to get back on the bed.
"Did ya like the show, doll?" he asks, clearly knowing you enjoyed the hell outta that.
"Was that your question, Barnes?"
"No, but just answer," he sighs.
"Oh yeah, I definitely enjoyed that.  It made my day for sure." you said, completely honest and shameless.
"I knew you would," Bucky blushes and bites his lip, which causes your cheeks to burn up and blush again.
"Ok, my turn.  Who is your closest friend on the team?" Bucky asks.
"After tonight, it's you, Bucky.  I don't know too much about anyone else, but after learning more about you and spending time with you, you earned that spot."
"Thanks doll," he said.
"Anytime, Bucky Barnes," you reply.  Bucky blushes at the fact that you called him by his full name.  It sounds like honey coming out of your lips.  "Your turn, Y/N."
"Who is your crush?" you ask, praying to god he would say you.
Bucky blushes at the question.  He liked you for the longest time that liking you was clearly an understatement.  He loved you.  He loved you to the moon and back.  It was so obvious to everyone on the team, but you failed to notice.  He liked since the moment he laid eyes on you, those two years ago when you were laying in the ice bath.  He wanted to tell you the moment he saw you, but he wasn't the best with words and didn't know how to.  He also didn't want to put your relationship at risk so he hid it from you.  But he wasn't the best at doing so.  He often made little gestures or said certain things to hint at it.  But now he knew it was the time to tell you.
"You, Y/N.  It's been you since the moment I saw you.  I knew you were special and the one I was meant to be with.  You have no idea how hard it has been keeping it from you.  You make me feel more alive then I have in years.  You make me feel so happy and amazing.  And I know whenever I'm with you I feel this way.  You have no idea how fucking amazing, smart and beautiful you are and I wish you saw yourself the way I see you."  He was looking down as he said this with his eyes closed.  He was too embarrassed to look at you and you were fine with it.  You were smiling so hard your cheeks were hurting.  You were crying tears of happiness, but your cheeks felt like they were on fire, so no tears were showing up on your skin.  But then Bucky continued what he was saying.
"But I understand if you only want to be friends.  I respect that and it's totally coo-" 
You lean into him, grab his chin and pull his lips into yours. You latch on to his lips and give him a searing and passionate kiss.  You poured all of your feelings for him into it so he knew exactly how he felt.  Everything around you guys dissolved into thin air.  You and Bucky felt like you were in heaven and you both didn't want to leave.  You couldn't believe how soft and plump his lips were and they felt amazing against yours.  You kissed forever, but you and him were running out of air and had to break the kiss.  As you separate, you can feel steam radiating off of you.  You looked into his eyes and saw something you had never seen before.  You saw happiness and joy, something that was new to you and you blushed even harder.  
Bucky felt the best he felt in a long time.  He was trying so hard to not jump up and do a happy dance.  As he looked back at you, he felt warm, loved and cared for, something different and he loved it.
"So, how was your first kiss?" he asked, trying to be funny.  You laugh at his comment.
"It was magical, special and something I will never forget.  You are the best, you know that?" you gush.  Bucky stares at you and doesn't want to look away, fearing he might lose you.
"I love you."
You stare at him, completely in shock at the words that left his mouth.  You have to rewind the moment in your head to realize he actually said that.  His words catch you both by surprise and he sits there with regret written all over his face.
"I am so sorry, doll.  I just got caught up in the moment," he rambles.  "I shouldn't have said that, it's way too soon.  You don't have to respond or say it back, I completely unders-"
He gets cut off again as you put your finger on his lips to shut him up and it works like a charm because he went dead silent.  You place your other hand on his head and run your fingers through his hair.  He loves when you do this and you earn a small groan out of him.  You both stare at each other intensely, taking in every feature on your faces.  You notice how beautiful his icy blue eyes are while he takes in your joyful smile.  
"I love you." you reply.
Bucky had to do a double take himself because he couldn't believe you said it back to him.  He looked at you with hope and pride and he smiled.  He was overjoyed that you said those three special words to him and it made his heart soar.  Bucky was over the moon that the girl he had fallen for loved him too.

The Capture of Ryuk
Monday Morning:
A regular day for 15-year-old Ryuk in 1980, in Westville, he was serving at the bakery, Charlotte’s Home Sweets.
“Come on Ryuk! Business is coming low!” Mrs. Charlotte hollered from the front door of the bakery,
“Yes, Mrs. Charlotte!” Ryuk replies as he brushes off the sweat from his forehead. Legend says Mrs. Charlotte has been running the bakery since WW2, and she doesn’t even seem that old. Although her mood has never changed, you see Mrs. Charlotte’s husband was fighting WW2 but died in Hawaii when Mrs. And Mr. Charlotte were on vacation, she managed to escape, but Mr. Charlotte was right on the scene, and Mr. Charlotte died. But Mrs. Charlotte heard something strange in that scene, Mr. Charlotte’s last words were, “Aliens are here..” and aliens were of course make-believe in the WW2 occurred, so no one genuinely believed in aliens.
“Hi, Mr. Buck, what would you like to order?” Ryuk questions, as he has a coffee in one hand cinnamon rolls in another,
“Oh come on Ryuk! You know I love the regular!” Mr. Buck exclaimed as he pointed his smoking pipe to Ryuk. Mr. Buck’s smoking pipe was from his great grandfather.
“You know where this pipe came from?” Mr. Buck asked,
“N-no sir,” Ryuk stammered,
“A day in West Virginia, My great Grandad, was on his carriage with his two white horses, Philly and Emilly, he was having a normal day going to his work when he heeded something very glistening, he deemed it was a bird with a fragment of glass, but a tobacco pipe came falling’ from the sky, he called it the ‘holy pipe’”.
“Wow I didn’t know that, but could that glistening thing be aliens?” Ryuk questioned,
“No son, there is nothing such as aliens.” Mr. Buck frowned, gave him the money, and left the shop. Later that night, Ryuk came home and started arranging dinner, he seized out two eggs and started boiling them. Ryuk thought more profoundly about what could have been the glistening object in the sky, Ryuk smelt some burnt smells and black dust coating the kitchen, he instantly lowered the heat and poured the burnt egg on a plate, and threw himself on the sofa going into a deep sleep.
Tuesday 7:30 am:
“Knock! Knock! Ryuk! Are you there?!” The newspaper yelled. Ryuk heard some mumbling sounds, and then quickly got up and brushed his eye with his quite red fingers, and opened the door,
“Yes?” He squeaked tiredly,
“Newspaper!” The guy said, Ryuk took the newspaper from him, and locked the door with his lavish strength, he opened a window and then launched the newspaper outside.
8:45 am:
Ryuk locked his door and headed outside, to the bakery, to start his very hard-working job. Ryuk lost both his parents at the age of 5 months, he never really knew what happened to them.
“Oh good! Start by cleaning the dishes!” Mrs. Charlotte said in a somewhat polite way,
“Yes, Mam!” Ryuk answered with very little enthusiasm.
5:30 pm:
It was the end of the shift and Ryuk was heading home to go to bed.
“Hey look, it’s the kid who works at the bakery, what a poor idiot!” Easton giggled with his 2 other friends,
“Leave me alone,” Ryuk sighs and said in a very tired way,
“Oh is that so? Do you want some money, so you can have a bed?” Easton assured. Ryuk ignores them and starts heading home-
“Look, the orphan bakery nerd is running home!!!” Easton and his other mates laughed quite hard. That’s when Ryuk lost his mind took out his right arm and punched Easton in the right eye,
“Oww!! Fight that loser!” Easton said looking like he declared war, one of Easton’s friends tried to kick him but Ryuk grasped his leg and slammed him on the terrain. His other friend started to sneak behind him and strangled him. Ryuk was trying to get his muscular hands off his throat, and that’s when Easton spotted a rock and thrust it as hard as he could on Ryuk’s face, Ryuk went all black.
Wednesday 9:45 am:
“Honey, are you ok?!” A lady asked,
“Oh yeah, I am ok,” Ryuk guesses, as he sees dark blood on the ground and then touches his face,
“Honey, I think you should be at the hospital!” The lady said with fright,
“No, I am okay,” Ryuk smiles and runs to the bakery. As he was running one thing on his mind was, ‘are aliens real?’
“Oh my!! What happened?!?” Mrs. Charlotte asked, hoping for a long answer,
“I fell, there is nothing to worry about,” Ryuk said with a fake smile,
“Come to the kitchen!” Mrs. Charlotte demanded,
“I am serious, nothing happened!” Ryuk said with determination,
“Did those three hooligans beat you up again?” Mrs. Charlotte questions, as she gets the medkit out,
“Yeah,” Ryuk mumbles, Easton’s father was the richest in the town, he owned all the bakeries, Easton also went to school but Ryuk didn’t because he couldn’t afford it,
“I will tell you what, you can take some rest for this shift, and I will give you some money to go get some ice cream,” Mrs. Charlotte smiles, and puts the bandage beneath his left eye,
“Are you sure?” Ryuk asked, Mrs. Charlotte, nodded.
10:10 am:
Ryuk was at the library licking his ice cream and started playing alien games. There was a spaceship, and it would suck up many people from the beach. The game was indeed dull, to be truthful, but Ryuk was so interested that he never got bored, he played it on for hours and hours until it was lunch. Ryuk yawned and stretched his arms and legs and went to eat lunch. He loved eating lunch at McDonald’s, the cheapest restaurant in town but had the best tasting food.
Moments later:
“McDonald’s! What would you like to order Ryuk?” Mrs. Tucker asked, with a very pleasant smile as if she got a promotion,
“The Big Mac, thank you!” Ryuk said with the least excitement,
“That will be $3.15!” Mrs. Tucker said, Ryuk looked at his money and he had three dollars and twenty cents left, he gave 3 one-dollar bills, and 3 nickels. Mrs. Tucker’s regular consumer was Ryuk. Ryuk munched the big mac as if he was the hungriest person on Earth, he thought in his head are aliens even present? Would aliens take over the world? Is Mr. Buck’s smoking pipe from the aliens? And what does Mr. Charlotte’s last word supposed to even mean? All these thoughts were circling Ryuk’s head.
“Hey, Ryuk, are you ok?” Mrs. Tucker asserts,
“Yeah kind of,” Ryuk confirms,
“You look like you are in deep thought,” Mrs. Tucker said with concern, Ryuk takes a deep breath,
“I know you might think this is a stupid question but are aliens real?” Ryuk replies, with very limited expectation, for Mrs. Tucker to not say he’s stupid,
“My big brother was a Xenoarchaeologist, in Hawaii, while he was doing an experiment he passed away,” Mrs. Tucker cries,
“I am so sorry,” Ryuk stated,
“Before my brother’s death, he gave me this artifact which has a different language written on it and he said to return it to them,” Mrs. Tucker said with misery,
“It must mean that it’s from the aliens, right?” Ryuk asked,
“Yes, at least I think so,” Mrs. Tucker,
“I need to go, Mrs. Tucker, bye!” Ryuk conveys,
“Bye!” Mrs. Tucker responds with her half crying voice.
Thursday 9:00 am:
Ryuk was walking down the road until he saw multiple posters that say, ‘Your chance to go to Hawaii, state why you want to and can be the winner on August 5th in city hall at 2:45 pm’. This was Ryuk’s only chance to know what Mr. Charlotte’s last words meant.
Two months later:
It was Wednesday, 2:00 pm, Ryuk got in his best clothes, ate some bacon and eggs, and entered outside, but that’s when he ran into someone,
“Look who it is! The nerd of baking, I heard he is studying about aliens,” Easton giggles, and then the 3 of them start to laugh,
“I am studying about aliens, and they are just a different type of species,” Ryuk whispers putting his head,
“Oh is that right! This loser thinks aliens are real,” Easton blabbers,
“It is, you see I was playing this game in the library-” Ryuk said,
“I don’t CARE! Look, just stay out of my way, I am going to Hawaii and you are going to be a poor loser working in that bakery!” Easton yells,
“You have all that money and you can’t go to Hawaii?” Ryuk questions,
“Look, my dad thinks I have to earn money myself, and then spend it to go to Hawaii,” Easton said in a way that sounds like his dad is a villain. Ryuk nods and just heads to the city hall, but the city hall was very far away, about 30 mins, and Ryuk couldn’t walk 10 miles, he already wasted a good amount of time talking to Easton, he had to take the cab.
“Ryuk!! Are you going to the city hall?” A man said from a far distance approaches Ryuk with a taxi,
“MR. BUCK!! You saved my life, I was wondering how I would get to the city center, Thank you so much!” Ryuk answers with a large smile,
“No problem, always happy to help!” Mr. Buck replies. Ryuk opens the yellow smooth taxi door and gets in the cab, the seats were a printed design of circles and triangles.
2:40 pm:
Ryuk and Mr. Buck get out of the car and enter the City hall, there were rows of seats filled withs crowds of people, the soothing opera music made people dance around the massive building. Mr. Buck and Ryuk got the front row seats, everyone there looked like they wanted to go to Hawaii.
“Hello everyone! I am Atticus Wilson, which all of you probably know, and today we’re going to have participants give reasonable answers on why they want to go to Hawaii!” As Mr. Wilson states, the whole crowd cheers. Many participants go by until it was Easton’s turn,
“Easton!” Mr. Wilson yells,
“Coming Dad!” Easton replies,
“Okay,” Mr. Wilon responds, Easton sprints to the stairs and goes to the middle of the stage,
“I want to go to Hawaii because I want to enjoy life!” Easton assures.
“Next participant, Ryuk!” Mr. Wilson hollers,
“Oh LOOK it’s the loser!” Easton said as he runs down the stairs, Ryuk goes to the middle of the stage,
“I want to go to Hawaii, because of my love and interest in aliens, either mythical or true living species. I want to go and discover it by myself. I also want to know what Mr. Charlotte meant when saying his last words!” Ryuk said with a proud smile. The crowd starts clapping.
“Okay, that’s enough! The winner of-” Mr. Wilson doesn’t complete the sentence, but Easton runs to the stairs, knowing he would win,
“What the heck are you doing?!” Mr. Wilson said with a concerned face,
“Oh, I was just coming up here because I won!” Easton said proudly. The whole crowd seemed blank. Mr. Wilson quickly ignores,
“Sorry about that, the winner of this competition is Ryuk! Please come to the stage,” Mr. Wilson said with a smile. The crowd starts applauding,
“What?! THE LOSER BAKING NERD WON?!” Easton screams,
“Easton! YOU DO NOT call people that?!” Mr. Wilson yells back. Ryuk runs to the stage and goes to the middle.
“I loved your reason! Which is why I chose you as the winner!” Mr. Wilson said,
“But WHY?!” Easton hollers,
“Let me tell you why, when I was your age I also worked at the bakery, I did not have a rich dad,” Mr. Eastons said, the crowd gasps and so does Easton and Ryuk,
“So you were also a loser like Ryuk?!” Easton asked,
“No, and Ryuk is not a loser, I loved mythical creatures especially the Loch Ness Monster! And the mayor at my time had a contest to go to Scotland, I won and I went to Scotland to research the Loch Ness monster, and I saw this passion inside of Ryuk so that’s why I chose him!” Mr. WIlson confirms. Mr. Wilson gives the ticket to Ryuk,
“Thank you so much!” Ryuk said respectfully, Mr. Wilson smiles and nods.
4:00 pm:
“Well Ryuk, when is the flight?” Mrs. Charlotte asked,
“Its next week Monday,” Ryuk said with panic,
“I will tell you what you can have this whole week, off you’ve never been on an airplane, so get mentally prepared and do go pack your luggage,” Mrs. Charlotte smiles and pats Ryuk’s back,
“Thank you!” Ryuk said happily and walked away. As Ryuk was walking down the road he bumped into someone-
“Oh, I am so sorry!” Ryuk said with dismay
“Oh it's alright, wait you’re the winner from the City Hall today,” The girl who is 1 inch shorter than Ryuk and has freckles,
“Uhh yeah, who are you though?” Ryuk questions,
“I am Crystal! Nice to meet you!! You know there are two seats, so I was wondering if I could come?” Crystal said with cute dog eyes, her eyes were blue and her hair was golden,
“Wait, yeah um it does say two seats, so we just met, um,” Ryuk tries to deny but doesn’t know what’s the right choice,
“Oh yeah, I know we just met but come on!!!!! Please???” Crystal tries very hard to convince Ryuk,
“The flights on Monday, 6:45 am, sharp!” Ryuk with serious,
“Ok, I will come to pick you up with a cab, at 5:30 am,” Crystal said,
“Ok I will be ready by then, and my streets in Coronado drive 1142, my name is Ryuk,” Ryuk said with a happy smile,
“Bye! See you on Monday!” Crystal said with a superb amount of enthusiasm,
“Yup!” Ryuk replies.
Monday 5:20 am:
Ryuk got up from his bed, brushed his teeth, he was very sleepy, his eyelids were almost pouring like a liquid to his face, but that’s when he remembered what cartoons do when they are sleepy; he went to his kitchen, and opened one of the cabinets, he took out the toothpicks, and placed from his eyelid, to beneath his eye. His eye still had a scar when Easton threw the rock, but his pain was gone. Ryuk yawned, and poured some milk in his red transparent glass, he drank the milk as if it was his last meal, he took a banana and started munching on that too.
“Knock! Knock! Knock!” Ryuk ran to the door and opened it,
“Hi! The cab came a little earlier than planned,” Crystal said, with very little excitement,
“Oh ok! I am going to get the suitcase,” Ryuk said,
“Ok!” Crystal replies. Ryuk goes straight into a dark hallway and returns with a pleasant smile and a suitcase in his hand. Ryuk takes the red and ripped suitcase and places it in the trunk of the cab.
“All set!” Crystal announces,
“Yup!” Ryuk said as he was locking the door. He slides in the car, and closes the door,
“I am 13, and I am studying about alien stuff,” Crystal said,
“Oh, aliens are cool, but I am going to Hawaii, so I can solve a mystery,” Ryuk replies. Crystal nods and they both get comfortable to lay back.
6:00 am:
Crystal and Ryuk reach the airport, it was the biggest thing Ryuk had ever seen in his life,
“This is humongous, we’re gonna get lost in it,” Ryuk said with fright,
“Don’t worry silly, we won’t get lost, just look at the gate number,” Crystal remarks,
“27A,” Ryuk said with confusion,
“Oh ok! That means it must be this way,” Crystal points as she states. After following Crystal for a few moments, they ran into an elevator,
“We’re gonna need to use this,” Crystal said with excitement. They both go inside and Crystal presses a button, they go up, and they see a very large line, Crystal, walks straight into that line, and Ryuk follows her behind.
“Wait, why are we here?” Ryuk asked,
“Check-in line,” Crystal replies quickly. Crystal looked like she was very rich, all her cosmetics, made her look like her father worked for the president, even her suitcase,
“Ok!” Ryuk, blinks, and then Crystal was gone
“Crystal???!!” Ryuk yells, then a parade of people comes shoving him,
“Watch it, kid!!” A guy roars,
“Sorry,” Ryuk whimpers. And then he saw his luggage gone, he saw a man with a black cap, with his luggage running,
“HEY! Give it back!” Ryuk yells, with all his voice. He sprints, as swift as he can, and slams many people,
“Hey oww!” A woman shrieks,
“What a hooligan!” Another woman hollers. Ryuk saw a bike and hopped onto it. He chases the man for a few moments, until the man trips, and runs away,
“Finally!” Ryuk pants,
“You dummy, where were you?! I hate running you can get in trouble, in the airport realize?!” Crystal said, with terror,
“Sorry! Long story short, some guy stole my suitcase,” Ryuk said,
“I guess at least we’re not late,”
“Why don’t like you like running?” Ryuk asked,
“My mother died by running by running,” Crystal whispered,
“Ok, let’s do the check-in,” Crystal said with disbelief. Crystal approaches the women’s side, and Ryuk to the men’s side.
“Do you have any electronic devices son?” The officer asked with his shades on,
“No,” Ryuk confirms,
“Any jewelry? Liquid? Weapon? Sharp stuff? Or batteries,” The officer pulls, his shades down, and looks at Ryuk’s eye,
“No sir!” Ryuk said with confidence,
“Ok your good son, now I want you to stand like a tree, with your arms stretched,” Officer demands,
“Ok,” Ryuk replies. The officer gets an electronic gadget and touches Ryuk with it all over his body,
“You all good, son, now take your luggage and you can go,” The officer smiles, Ryuk goes straight and takes his luggage, and waits for Crystal.
“Ok so it’s 6:30, just 15 mins, before the flight, so we will go to gate 27A, and board there,” Crystal remarks. Ryuk nods as if he understood everything, which he didn’t.
A few moments later:
“Boarding flight, please come to the boarding station!” The lady on the speaker announced. The whole crowd, including Crystal and Ryuk, rushed and formed a line.
“Next person,” The Karen lady said impatiently,
“Hi! This is our ticket,” Crystal affirms, and hands the ticket to the lady,
“All set you can go!” The lady said Crystal and Ryuk enter a long hallway made out of the grey, rough carpet. Ryuk pulled his red suitcase with max strength because the suitcase was getting stuck on the carpet.
“Hi, this is Hawaiian Airlines Boeing 737, welcome in!” The kind flight attendant said, Crystal nodded and went inside the airplane.
“Who was that?” Ryuk whispers with a frown,
“The flight attendant, the person who cleans and makes the food of the airplane,” Crystal replies back.
“Seat 31C and 30B,” Ryuk announces,
“I will sit in 30B, and you can sit in 31C,” Crystal said. They walk until find 30,
“Ok you are right behind, and you get the window seat,” Crystal said as she lifted her suitcase, and put it on the top compartment, Ryuk did the same thing. Ryuk slides in his seat, and he sees an old woman coming in his direction.
“Hi, honey! Is this sit 31B?” The old lady asked,
“Y-yes, mam!” Ryuk stutters,
“Oh, goodie!” The old lady smiles. The lady gets slides in the middle seat. Then when Ryuk saw something glistening in the sky it might have been the sun, but it was moving.
“This is captain Bill, we will be taking off now, please put on your seat belts,” The radio announces. Ryuk puts his seatbelts on and prays that this will be very safe. The engine starts to rev, and then the airplane goes into its top-tier speed and Ryuk closes his eyes.
A few hours later:
The flight attendant had given his food, and Ryuk started to open it, it was beef tacos, he munched on it as quickly as possible so he fell asleep again, but he had swallowed it too, so he was probably not going to go to sleep again. Once Ryuk wakes up he cannot go back to sleep.
“Honey do you want a cookie, I baked it for my grandson,” The old lady said with kindness, and offers Ryuk a cookie,
“Thank you!” Ryuk said as he took one. He munched on the cookie, it was chocolate and strawberry, two of Ryuk’s favorite flavors. As Ryuk ate them, he thought that this lady must have had a very good experience baking cookies.
“This is awesome,” Ryuk said with astonishment,
“Well back in my day we used to have a lot of bakeries, and I used to work in one, my boss, taught me how to make the best cookies,” The old lady informs,
“Oh! That makes sense!” Ryuk confirms. Ryuk gets comfortable and closes his eyes.
“We have a slight problem, but there is nothing to worry about, stay cautious we might run into turbulence,” The captain remarked. Ryuk was afraid that they would crash or something, but it probably wasn’t going to happen. Ryuk got up from his seat and headed to the restroom. He opened the door and went in. There were no lights in it so he didn’t lock the door.
“We have a bigger problem, there is something in the sky that is visible, we are still trying to figure out what it is!” The captain yelled. Ryuk got out of the bathroom and sprinted to his seat. He puts on his seatbelt and starts to pray. Then he saw something very flashy, it came in quick, and it broke one of the wings of the plane, which exploded. He went black and then he heard the radio on the plane,
“MAYDAY! MAYDAY! BRACE FOR IMPACT!” The captain screamed, Ryuk looked out the window, he saw the plane going super fast into the water.
“Ryuk?!” Crystal screamed,
“Is this heaven?” Ryuk replied,
“NO! You are alive!” Crystal said with concern,
“It’s a miracle?” Ryuk said as he got up. He saw his hand bleeding wildly. Ryuk got up, and he looked at the island, it wasn’t big but it wasn’t small either,
“How are we supposed to get out of here?” Ryuk asked,
“I don’t know, maybe a boat or an airplane will come?” Crystal said with uncertainty.
“We have to survive here somehow, well first I am going to take some rest, I need to take all of this in,” Ryuk said while wiping his forehead. Crystal nods,
“I am going to check out the other side, to see if there are any other survivors,” Crystal declared. Ryuk lays down in the sand and closes his eyes.
A Few hours later:
Ryuk wakes up from the sound of the waves, he sees Crystal stargazing at the sky.
“Are there any survivors?” Ryuk questions,
“No, just us,” Crystal replies,
“What about food, will it last us days?” Ryuk asked with a positive attitude,
“Just 2 days,” Crystal replies,
“We’re kinda doomed,” Ryuk said tiredly. Ryuk goes to a large coconut tree and sees a big leaf on the ground, he takes the leaf and wraps it around his hand, and goes to bed.
Morning:
Ryuk yawns and gets up. He sees Crystal circling the trees in deep thought,
“We need to build a shelter, so we can be protected from the weather, there is a high chance of a storm coming in,” Crystal announced to Ryuk,
“Yeah! You're right, but we also need the materials. We can make the shelter out of bamboo,” Ryuk said,
“Your right I am going to go check if there are any materials that are floating in the ocean,” Crystal informs,
“Oh ok! Then I will look at the materials on the island,” Ryuk declared back. Crystal dives into the ocean and goes at full speed. Ryuk sees a ton of big leaves on the ground, and he got a good idea. He took one of the leaves and put sand in it. He also broke the leaf and a sticky goop came out, he put it in the leaves and wrapped it, this was his idea of a pillow. So he made two of these, for a pillow. Ryuk found big rocks. This can be a good idea to write something on the ground or protect from the weather. As Ryuk was done with it, he waited until Crystal came back.
“I am back, I got some supplies!” Crystal said with excitement,
“Nice!” Ryuk replies,
“I found a hatchet, some wet blankets, lots of pretzels and peanut packs, and lastly, a big shield, well not exactly a big shield, its the door to the airplane,” Crystal said happily
“Well, the hatchet will be very useful!” Ryuk decides,
“We can cut down the coconut tree and use the wood from it,” Crystal suggests,
“Yeah, I was thinking that too,” Ryuk said. Ryuk takes the hatchet and gives all his force at the coconut tree, but it didn’t do a dent,
“The problem is it would take a million tries, by that time it will be dull,” Crystal remarks,
“Your right but we’re gonna have to keep trying until we have successfully done it,” Ryuk said with confidence and keeps swinging,
“I got an idea!!” Crystal face glows up,
“What is it” Ryuk questions,
“Is there any rope,” Crystal asked,
goes fast, doing a lot of damage to the tree
“Yeah!” Ryuk said. Ryuk gave the rope to her, and Crystal tied it between two other trees, she took the hatchet and pulled it with rope like a catapult. The hatchet flew onto the tree, making a lot of marks on the tree. Ryuk and Crystal tried it over and over until they were exhausted,
“This might take us forever, and I am really hungry,” Crystal said with tiredness,
“Me too, we need to find food, I saw a bus with berries earlier, let’s eat the berries,” Ryuk said as he pointed in a direction. Crystal follows Ryuk until they reach a big thorny berry bush.
“Wow, that’s a lot of blueberries!” Crystal jumps in excitement
“Those aren’t blueberries, they are huckleberries,” Ryuk consults. When Ryuk was 8, he used to live with his uncles, until they died from a tragic accident, before that accident he used to go on the boy scouts team. From there he learned all about berries, now he practically could identify any berry in the world.
“I see!” Crystal said as she pulled one from the bush. She tastes it and makes a sour face,
“They are very sour, I guess we have to stick to the food that remains,” Ryuk said hopelessly. Crystal pulls out a bag and sees all kinds of food there. He first started eating the pretzels, they were very salty, he saw the old lady’s cookies and started thinking whether he was the chosen one to live. He saw Crystal devouring the cookies one by one.
“I am full Ryuk!” Ryuk declared,
“Me too,” Crystal replies while rubbing her stomach. They get the hatchet and start cutting the tree again.
“BANG!” The tree falls after numerous amount of tries,
“Finally!!” Ryuk yells and brushes the perspiration off his forehead. Ryuk chops the tree into pieces and uses some of the pieces to make a bed and the other to construct the shelter. He takes the rope, bamboo, and coconut tree pieces and ties them together to make a whole shed.
“Great we made a shed, to protect us from rainy weathers,” Ryuk said proudly,
“Ok now we got a place to sleep tonight, we’re gonna need blankets because it’s gonna start getting cold,” Crystal exclaimed,
“No problem we got these large leaves, we can use this as a blanket,” Ryuk replies,
“Yeah, that’ll work!” Crystal gives a quick response and smiles. It was the evening, Ryuk and Crystal started circling the island.
“There’s a lot of rocks, we can form a word from using these rocks, like ‘HELP’” Ryuk articulates,
“That’s a fantastic idea,” Crystal said with joy. Both of them take huge rocks and form the letters h, e, l, and p.
“Let’s hope someone can see this!” Crystal exclaimed. Ryuk nods and heads on to the food basket,
“There are 6 meals, it will help us for today’s dinner and tomorrow’s lunch and dinner combined,” Crystal declared,
“Oh that means, after that, we need to make our food,” Ryuk said with dismay. Crystal nods and walks away.
“What do you think the time is?” Ryuk questions, Crystal stops midway,
“Probably 7 pm or 6:30 pm,” Crystal said with uncertainty,
“Well then let’s have supper!” Ryuk exclaimed,
“I am not that hungry, you can eat,” Crystal remarked,
“Okay I guess, Ryuk said. He opens the transparent box and sees two cold tacos, he eats them like he never ate in his life. Ryuk finishes quickly and goes to the shelter,
“You sure you don’t want to eat? The food will get col-” Ryuk doesn’t finish his sentence when Crystal interrupts,
“THE FOODS NOT GONNA GET COLD OKAY? Look I JUST CAN’T TAKE ANY OF THIS!!” Crystal screams as she walks away. Ryuk goes to his bunk, lays down, and goes to sleep.
“Ahhh What a beautiful day,” Ryuk says as he stretches his arm and gets up from his hard bed. Sleeping that night was horrible, the bed was so hard Ryuk had a backache in the middle of the night. Ryuk looked beside and saw Crystal’s bed with a huge leaf on it. Crystal probably used that as a blanket.
“Look I am sorry about last night I just couldn’t believe it! Can you please forgive me?” Crystal asked,
“Yeah, sure!” Ryuk said politely when he steps on something smooth but hard, Ryuk looks down and sees a turtle,
“Ahhhh!” Ryuk yells,
“Silly it’s just a turtle!” Crystal laughed,
“Can we keep him?” Ryuk asked,
“Am I your mom? Yeah, we can keep him,” Crystal said with thrill,
“Let’s name him Roca,” Ryuk declared,
“Sure I guess, as long as she’s fine with it,” Crystal says with a pleasant smile. Ryuk can have Crystal play with Roca the whole day.
Another day passed, like nothing, and Roca was gone from his sandpit. Ryuk yawns,
“Where’s Roca?” Ryuk asked with solicitude. Crystal wakes up in an instant,
“Maybe he went for a walk or a swim?” Crystal guessed,
“Probably,” Ryuk remarked. Ryuk stared at Roca’s pit for a minute and went to the side of the island, there wasn’t any way they could brush their teeth, so Ryuk and Crystal used the salty water to rub it against their teeth. You might be also wondering by now, how are they drinking water? They are using the salty one till now.
“We can’t stick with the salty water, it’s toxic and it’s not like the salt is going away from our body,” Crystal declared,
“Your right,” Ryuk responded while wondering what can be another solution,
“How many coconuts are there?” Crystal asked,
“From the tree, we cut down, um a solid 50,” Ryuk said,
“Well, that’s awesome! That’s more than enough for us to last about 25 days,” Crystal yelped,
“Well, I think we should start by cutting the coconuts!” Ryuk exclaimed. He took the dull hatchet and kept on slicing the coconut with his one hand until it broke.
“Crack!” The coconut cracked,
“Okay I got one cracked, I need to do another,” Ryuk remarked,
“You can just do this instead,” Crystal said, as she placed the hatchet straight and then started banging the coconut on the hatchet,
“Crack!” The coconut cracked,
“See this took way less time,” Crystal discloses. Both of them start munching on the copra and then drinking the coconut water.
“Good breakfast!” Ryuk exclaimed. Ryuk took the last of his remaining rope, a long stick, and sharp rock, and combined it to make a spear.
“Now this can be good to catch fish!” Ryuk said as if he invented something new. Happiness wasn’t a critical mood in this situation, it is hope, belief, and determination. Ryuk’s clothes were all ripped and his hand was still healing. They knew that they were hopeless, but most importantly they had belief in themselves and each other. Ryuk ran to the ocean with his spear in one hand, after several tries he caught a fish,
“I CAUGHT ONE!” Ryuk yelled in astonishment,
“Just one?” Crystal said,
“Well, they are really fast,” Ryuk remarked,
“I am going to make a fire so we can cook the fish,” Crystal said,
“Okay I will try to catch more fish then,” Ryuk replied. Crystal finds a lot of extra wood from the other day and finds flint rocks and a little bit of steel from her pocket, it must have been the metal necklace she had been carrying, she rubbed the flint and the little bit of steel together for a pretty long time until the fire came out she placed it on the wood,
“I made a fire!!!” Crystal said,
“Nice, I am trying to find more fish,” Ryuk announces. As Ryuk goes back to the ocean he sees Roca with two large fish in her mouth,
“Roca got us fish!” Ryuk exclaimed,
“Thanks, Roca, we’ll cook one for you too!” Crystal affirmed. Crystal took the two fish from Roca’s mouth, she took two sticks and put them inside the fish.
“Now we can roast it over the fire like they’re a marshmallow,” Crystal exclaimed with happiness as if she got what she wanted for her birthday. Ryuk got his large leaves as a plate. After a long time, the fish was done, Crystal gave one fish to Ryuk, one to Roca, and one for herself.
“Roca's, it's really hot, so be careful!” Crystal said as if she was Roca’s mom. Roca did not listen to a single word to what Crystal said and she started munching like she never ate before,
“It needs a lot of things,” Ryuk affirmed,
“Yeah it does, but we don’t have any of the ingredients,” Crystal said hopelessly,
“One of the most important things that we need is a taste to this fish, maybe we should put some berries there,” Ryuk conveyed,
“We can, but the berries have a horrible taste,” Crystal affirmed,
“We can try it right?” Ryuk responded,
“Fine, we can try it at dinner, but if anything goes wrong it’s all your fault,” Crystal acknowledges.
Eight hours later or 9 pm:
Crystal went to the berry bush and plucked out 10 berries, This is not the best idea Crystal thought inside her head. Crystal loved reading, in school people called book addicts, and that’s why she can go deep in pretty much anything you can think of. Crystal walks over to the fire and starts setting the fish up.
“Hey on the bright side we get to experiment with things!” Ryuk exclaimed,
“I am not giving the ‘tasted’ to fish Roca,” Crystal replied,
“Fine,” Ryuk remarked, Ryuk walked away and went to the other side island, so he can gather leaves to make a plate, he plucked leaves off the tree, then he turned around saw Crystal,
“H-ow?! Did you come here so fast?” Ryuk stuttered with confusion,
“I used to run in my school, you know, like cross country and track and field,” Crystal said nervously. Ryuk nodded and walked away, Ryuk knew something was up. That day when he won the prize several people came to Ryuk as if he was a king and he can grant any wish, be he still doesn’t know why he chose Crystal.
“Ryuk food is ready!” Crystal chanted,
“I am coming,” Ryuk sprinted to the fire.
PART 2 WILL BE COMING SOON!
PART 2: “Okay let’s see how the fish tastes,” Crystal remarked. Ryuk took a huge bite of the fish and closed his eyes,
“This IS awesome!!” Ryuk replied,
“Seriously,” Crystal said as she takes a bite of the fish. Crystal was super surprised that the fish was going to taste that good.
“See I told you,” Ryuk smirked. Ryuk looked at the sky and saw something shiny,
“Do you see that?” Ryuk asked,
“See what?” Crystal back,
“This weird shiny object, probably a shooting sta-” Ryuk didn’t finish the sentence,
“We need to go, immediately!” Crystal bellowed. Crystal and Ryuk went behind a boulder, the “shooting star” was gone. Ryuk got up,
“It’s probably just a shiny, nothing to worry abo-” Ryuk doesn’t finish, and a huge piece of metal lands on the fire. Crystal pulls Ryuk behind the boulder. Then suddenly Ryuk remembers, what he saw in that flight,
“It might be aliens,” Ryuk said in uncertainty,
“You silly! It’s no time to joke around, I study about it, but science has shown that it isn’t real!” Crystal said with an annoying accent.
“BRFFF!” A deafening sound hits Ryuk’s ear hits.
“RYUK! WAKE UP!!” Crystal screamed into Ryuk’s ear. Ryuk got up started walking and then fell on the sand flat on his face.
“I am okay!” Ryuk confirms as he does a thumbs up,
Morning:
Ryuk yawned and woke up from his sand, which was very uncomfortable, probably the reason he had his backache. Ryuk brushes his with his sharp fingers and goes to the water. He takes a whole handful of water and throws it at his face.
“What the-” Ryuk exclaims, as he turns around. He saw a circular object with a bubble type on top,
“What is this?” Ryuk asks,
“I stayed up all night, you were sleeping this just floated from the beach,” Crystal said. She looked all fresh and kind of absurd.
“Could have been from the flight?” Ryuk questions,
“It isn’t when it hit the flight it was very much stable,” Crystal replies,
“Are we gonna try to on it?” Ryuk suggested,
“Just press this switch, and I think it turns on,” Crystal said with doubt,
“Okay, first we must be ready,” Ryuk said,
“We’re ready,” Crystal said in rush. Crystal pressed that big red button in heavy uncertainty, if the switch didn’t work she looked like would drown in a sea of grief. The bubble-type lid opened, and you could enter, both of them jumped in, and in a flash they teleported.
“Where are we?!” Ryuk panicked,
“Somewhere…” Crystal confirmed. They were surrounded by purple walls and two vents.
“Let’s go through the vents and see which one leads to what,” Ryuk remarked. Crystal nodded and pointed to the vent she wanted to go to,
“Let’s go through this one,” Crystal said as she pointed,
Both of them go through the vent for a long time, and then they heard some heavy whisperings, it was an unknown language for Ryuk. Ryuk deeply thought inside his head, it must have been aliens, as he was thinking “DHAM!”, Ryuk slammed on the ground with Crystal,
“AHHHH!” Ryuk screamed in fear,
“How did humans come here,” The unknown being object said, the voice sounded like a robot,
“We have stumbled upon your place, we are truly sorry, please mercy us,” Crystal said with a weak voice,
“Our leader will decide,” The being remarked. Then the alien said a secret code, where a really short person who looked two million years old pondered in,
“Cr-yst-al?!” The old man yelled,
“Dad!” Crystal remarked. Ryuk was dead confused,
“W-hat?” Ryuk stuttered. The old man led Crystal and Ryuk to a big room.
“You see this is my daughter, she actually a million-year-old, but she was born with three superpowers, one: she can time travel, this was a family gene we all could do it, and so was immortality which she also has, two: make herself look young, and lastly three: she can run really fast,” The old man said as he ran out of breath,
“Oh, so that explains everything!” Ryuk said with sweat dripping down his head.
“But there’s is a problem, a long time ago an emperor had two puzzle pieces that were very valuable, but he lost one of them, they were important because they make the alien city function, but one day a robber stole one of the pieces, which was never found again. And now we only have one more piece but we can’t seem to find it at all. People say that Xenoarchaelogist found it but he died afterward,” The old man spoke with all his energy,
“Wait you mean this?” Ryuk asks, as he looks in his pockets, and pulls out a black piece of plastic material and a purple light glowing on it,
“This? The light didn’t glow before,” Ryuk said,
“Oh my yes!!! This is the piece thank you so much, it glows, as you start getting closer and closer to the place,” The old man shined like a light bulb. The old man took the piece from Ryuk and he put it into a machine, which started getting brighter and brighter, and Ryuk woke up on the sand. All alone.
“Crystal?! Hello anyone?!” Ryuk panicked, as he saw a motorboat coming near him, he saw a group of men coming,
“Hola! Buenos dias, Como estas?” The man said in concern,
“I no comprehend Espanol,” Ryuk replied,
“Oh ok, where do you live,”
“I live in Westville, North America,” Ryuk said in a panic, thinking that they won’t understand,
“Okay, how long have been here? Have any family? Anyone else here?” The man asked,
“What’s the date? And no family and no one else is here” Ryuk asked as he thought about Crystal and where she disappeared,
“August 31st,” The man replied,
“21 days,” Ryuk said in disbelief.
“Okay, I need to take you to the nearest airport,” The man said, they both jumped on the boat and left the lonely island.
Two months later:
“Hi, Mrs. Charlotte long time no see,” Ryuk exclaimed,
“Oh my hello, how was your journey?” Mrs. Charlotte asked,
“Fantastic!” Ryuk replied,
“You know a girl named Crystal, she came to visit and see if you were there,” Mrs. Charlotte said as she was mopping the floor,
“Yes, do you know where she went,” Ryuk questioned in astonishment,
“Yes, she said something about meeting her on a specific island in Puerto Rico,” Mrs. Charlotte replied. Ryuk nodded and thought what will happen next is the question.
