"all the piercings he does have are pretty much the only ones he's ever had. most of which, he just got to be cool in the first place." Percy really now?! 😭 Just to be cool? He gives off vibes of being self confident :") Does he even like them lol
He doesssss— if he didn’t he wouldn’t buy more. He likes the way he looks with them, especially when he pulls his rings and necklaces out to match but it is true he only got them for the physical appeal.

Tumblr media
There’s a small bakery in a quiet street on the outskirts of the Capital of Snezhnaya. Many of the Fatui Skirmishers come to visit before heading out. They claim it’s good luck. You are always happy to do business with the Fatui, as that rakes in revenue for you. But recently you were having a slight problem. A local gang has been trying to pry money out of you, “for protection” they claim, but you do know that it's bogus. You tried to tell them no but they seem to not take that answer well. They come in almost everyday to harass you about it. At this point it’s part of your routine. You wake up, get the bakery ready, and get harassed by the gang. They normally harass you about money, always coming in disrupting business or graffiti rude and cruel messages on your windows. But you never gave in, you just sighed and fixed everything. There’s no need to cry over spilt milk, that’s what your mother would always tell you. It was one of those days where you were being harassed again by this local gang.
“Just give us the money, then your debt will be paid.” One of the gang members spatted, his temper clearly waning by the minute. 
“Why would I? And what debt would I incur during this time period?” You questioned, cleaning a glass cup. You were not amused by this, it’s the third time this week and you are quite getting used to your new routine. 
“For protection obviously!” Another one spat slamming his fist on your counter. You rolled your eyes at their foolish behavior.
“Oh, protection? But I do believe that the Fatui Harbingers and their men have it all covered. No?” You asked, raising an eyebrow. The gang member stuttered for a bit before another one, a much bigger one, slammed his gun on your counter.
“Listen here, you’re going to give us the money or else-”
“Or else what?” A new voice spoke up, one that you’re not familiar with. Looking over you spot a tall man with icy blue hair sitting idly in the booths stacks of paper scattered around the table. 
“And who are you?” One of the members asked, storming up to the man. You quickly walked around the bar putting you between the gang and the icy haired man. 
“Leave him out of this. You can threaten me all you want but the minute you threaten a customer it’s over.” You glared at them, but a small chuckle was heard behind you. You heard some shuffling before you felt a presence behind you. You looked up seeing the icy blue hair man behind you. 
“See, I really like this place. It gives me time to get away from them and now… it’s ruined. By you lot.” His tone was cold as he slowly approached the gang. But they didn’t move. 
“Oh yeah, and who are you, a high ranking Fatui Harbinger?” One asked, pointing a gun right to his face. You couldn’t see what the strange man did next as he gestured to something on him. But whatever it was it clearly scared the gang away. Their faces were pale as they exited the store. One muttered that they’ll be back, but the other didn’t say anything. Now it was just the two of you.
“Ha, sorry for dragging you into this mess.” You sighed, running your hand through your hair. The man gave out a chaotic cackle before whipping around to see you. You finally get a good view of him. He had striking red eyes, the already described icy blue hair, and his outfit was strange. A white dress shirt with an overexaggerated collar, paired with a black vest. Strange clothing for the middle of winter in Snezhnaya. Let’s not mention the blue earring he wore that has some sort of liquid in it. 
“Hmm,” The man hummed as he circled around you like a predator eyeing their prey. He stopped right behind you, you felt his hands run through your hair playing with it a bit.
“You have nice hair, and very healthy organs.” He chuckled a bit.
“Thanks?” you tried to smile, but this is totally weird. Was he trying to compliment you, or something? You gave a weary look as you watched him slide back into his booth and continue looking around his stack of paper. You sighed as you walked around the counter, you have to repay him with something right? An idea popped in your head as you smiled to yourself. As you prepare your little surprise for the stranger, everytime you glance in his direction he always seems to be looking at you at the same time. Strange, but this man is already strange already. 
After a couple of minutes you approached the strange man again. As you approached him, he seemed to sense your presence and watched you set a plate down. 
“This… is a little thanks for helping me with those nut jobs.” You suddenly felt shy under his gaze. But he didn’t say a word as he took a bite out of the warm pastry. 
“Thanks.” He said muffled by the pastry that was in his mouth.
“No, thank you.” You smile as you walk away, going back to cleaning the mess the gang left behind. It seems that you have a new routine, you wake up, get the bakery ready, get harassed again, but now you have your new regular. The strange ice blue haired man comes in everyday it seems to work? You don’t really know, you never really pry into it. He always comes in and gets the same thing. A pure black iced coffee with a nice warm pastry. You're always confused when he asks for ice coffee as it’s Snezhnaya, the temperatures are always in the negatives. But he seems to enjoy his order. You can’t complain, he seems to help out when the gang comes in to harass you.
But for the past few weeks he hasn’t shown up.You were concerned and asked around but no one seemed to know what or who you were talking about. But something strange started to happen. Dead bodies have started showing up around your bakery. Either in your front door, in your alley way, or in the back door, wherever there is a spot a body was found. And every single time the body belonged to the gang that was harassing you. And every single time there was a message written in their blood confessing their crimes of harassing you. You were freaked out about it, thinking there was a serial killer on the loose and you reported it to the nearest Fatui station. The Fatui seemed to care for about a week but then stopped. They dropped the case saying that the 2nd Fatui Harbinger Il Dottore dropped the case. Which is strange because Lord Pucinella is in charge of the capital’s police so why is the Doctor dropping the case? You were lowkey freaked out about everything, but everytime you were scared to leave the strange man always seemed to appear. Always willing to walk you home, and if anytime you ask about his whereabouts he would just dismiss the question. Although a little freak out you didn’t question why he was here. It was nice to have someone watching over you especially when it seems that someone is clearly doing a revenge for you. 
On one fateful night, a quiet night you were alone in your bakery cleaning some dishes when you heard a high pitch scream. Your head shot up as you gently placed down the cup. The screams died out, and the silence after was deafening. Did you just hear the last moments of someone's life? You hesitated to leave the backroom before you heard a little ding, it rang around the quiet bakery, you were frozen not knowing what to do.
“Darling are you there?” A familiar voice spoke up, it was that man. You quickly walked out of the room already babbling about what just happened. But you were stopped in your tracks, your eyes went wide, and face went pale. There he stood covered in blood, his face like a maniac as he held a little box with a pretty bow on top. 
“W-what happened to you?” You stuttered as you slowly approached the man who gave a crazed smile holding out a box.
“I got you a present.” Completely ignoring the question he set the present in your hands. The blood smeared all over your hand. 
“What is it?” You hesitatingly asked. 
“Open it,” 
You slowly pulled the little ribbon on the top, the ribbon fell gracefully on your blood stained hands. Slowly taking the top off you only caught a glimpse of the inside before dropping it. Falling out of the gift box was a human heart, the blood oozing out of the heart pooling on your recently cleaned floor. You scrambled back, your back hitting against the wall harshly. 
“W-what is this?” You exclaimed looking over at him, all he had was a small smile as he walked around the counter getting closer to you. 
“A profession of my love, darling.” His small smile turned into a smile.You were still scrambling away to the back room.
“With a human heart! What is wrong with you?” You yelled, all he did was start to laugh, a laugh that soon turned into a cackle.
“What is wrong with me? With me? Oh darling, everything.” He made eye contact with you, his eyes blown wide with lust as he continued his approach. 
“Those little gang members won’t hurt you ever again.” He whispered as he encaptured you between his arms against the wall. Inches away from his face as he gave a manic smile. 
“You did this, killed all those gang members?” Your voice wobbled as you tried to grasp the situation. 
“Oh yes, I did, made sure they won’t hurt you ever again.” He whispered, his face inches away from you. You were shaking uncontrollably, you didn’t know how to react.
“Please don’t hurt me.” You whispered your voice quivering with every word. The man just cackled as he rested his head against your shoulder. 
“Hurt you… haha… I can never hurt. Not you, never.” 
“I… don’t even know your name.” He stared straight into your eyes, his ruby red ones shining in the light, piercing through yours. 
“I go by many names, but I prefer you call me Zandik.” Zandik reached out to your face, creasing it, the smell of metal filled your senses as he spread the blood all across your face. He leaned in his lips inches away from yours, you can feel his breath against your face.
“I would kill the whole world for you, I want you so badly. Please…” He pleaded, resting his forehead against yours. 
“I…I…” 
“Please…” You looked away for a second before Zandik let out a sound of frustration before slamming his lips against yours. It was rough, he had your arms pinned, you can’t move an inch. When he pulled away he smiled as he stroked your cheek. You’re pretty sure that the majority of your face is covered in blood. 
“I want you.” He murmured against your skin as his hands trailed back untying your apron.
“Do you want me?” He asked looking straight into your eyes, you just nodded. He started to laugh, the mood completely shifting for both of you. For him he was ecstatic, but for you… you have no idea. You were scared, afraid, but also calm? Like sure this Zandik man killed a bunch of men, but he did it in your honor. He has no ill intention on harming you, and he is clearly doing it out of love. But do you love him? All these thoughts stirred in your head as you felt Zandik’s hands trailed down your dress till it was underneath the frills. 
“Haa, do that again? Make that sound again, you sound so cute.” He breathed as he started to hike up your dress. The dress crumpled up to your waist as you obliged his request by whimpering again as you felt the cold wind of Snezhnaya brush against your legs. Zandik pulled back admiring how you looked. He chuckled as he leaned in towards your ear.
“You look beautiful with all this blood. So beautiful…” He whispered as he worked his way towards your panties. But was stopped your sudden grip on his wrist. He looked shocked at your audacity to stop his advancement. 
“C-could you at least wash the blood off your hands.” You mumbled as you looked away, “I don’t really want someone’s blood inside me.” It clicked in Zandik’s head and he rushed over to the sink, scrubbing his hands clean of all the blood. You stood there in shock on what’s happening. Everything is settling on you like a ton of bricks. This man who you're about to have sex with just killed a bunch of people these past months, and just professes his love to you with a human heart. How… strange. You listened to him mutter to himself something about, “not wanting other guys dna inside you.” that “you belong to him and him alone.” or “I’ll never let anyone hurt her again.” You weren’t going to lie, it was lowkey hot to see him like this. He patted his hands down on his pants before latching himself back onto you. His lips were back onto yours devouring you lips like there was no tomorrow. You couldn’t help but moan against his lips as he started to slowly grind against you. You could feel how hard he was against your cloth vagina. 
“I can’t help myself dear, you are so perfect.” He murmured against your skin, you felt his gloved hands trail down playing with the edge of your underwear. You felt him smile against your skin as he pulled your underwear to the side and plunge two fingers into your soaking wet clit. You heard him groan as he worked your way through your vagina. 
“You’re already so wet for me dear. So perfect, taking in my fingers like this.” He moaned as he fastened his pace. The moans couldn’t stop as you closed your eyes. The feeling was so overwhelming, the foreign feeling of his leather gloves pistoning in and out of you felt strange yet pleasurable. Zandik was biting against your skin, his shark-like teeth biting down on your exposed neck, you felt your blood trickle down your neck. His pace fastened with each thrust, you couldn’t hold back your moans. Whimpering his name every now and then, which seemed to get a reaction out of him. 
“Ha, I’m close.” You breathed out, feeling the coil tighten in your stomach. But the minute you said that you felt Zandik’s fingers ripping out of your inside. You whined at the sudden loss of his fingers. 
“I know darling, but I promise you. I’ll make you feel so so much better. I swear.” He cackled as he fiddled with his pants. You intently watched as he pulled his now hard cock out. He slapped it against your clit, earning a moan. You eyed at the sheer size of his cock. It was huge. You don’t think it would fit inside you.
“It’s not going to fit.” You exclaimed, panicking looking up to Zandik’s glaring red eyes.
“Too big? Haha, don’t worry darling, I’ll make it fit.” Zandik smiled as he lined up his cock with your vagina. 
“It’s not going to fit-” You were cut off as Zandik shoved his girthy cock all the way in one go. You yelled in pain and pleasure by the stretch. You tried to tell him to slow down but your cries fell on deaf ears as Zandik set a rough pace. He seemed to lose his own pleasure to listen to your pleas. You felt tears start to flow down your cheeks by the stretch of Zandik’s dick. Zandik started to laugh like a mad man looking down on you, his eyes wide like a crazed man.
“You look so beautiful like this darling, so beautiful when you cry.” He laughed, slamming his lips against yours, kissing your pain away. 
“Please, I want to cum.” You cried pulling away from him, the pain turning into pleasure as Zandik continued his rough pace.
“Ha, so obedient, so perfect. You were made for me,” He moaned as he gently cupped your face.
“Look at you, you were worried about my dick fitting yet look,” He tilted your head to see his dick disappear inside your vagina with each rough thrust, “your pussy was made for me, molded just me, and me only.” Your walls flutter against his dick with his words, which causes Zandik to groan.
“And now, you’re sucking me in with every thrust. Greedy greedy girl.” He chuckled as he captured your lips again. When he pulled away, a thin string of spit kept you connected.
“I’ve been aching for you for weeks now,” He started his confession, “every night, I would imagine how perfect you would be around my cock. And-ha, just look. It’s perfect, you're perfect, just for me. You’re mine, got it?” His words fell out of his mouth in pure pleasure as he started to draw dizzy circles around your clit. That sent your nerves into overdrive, moans kept falling out of your mouth. Your senses were sent into overdrive, every touch from Zandik made you clamp down around his dick. You couldn’t help it, the pure bliss that you were feeling was out of this world. 
“C-close.” You were able to get out, Zandik just chuckled before quickening his already fast pace. 
“Gods please, I want your vagina to suck me dry. Please, let me cum inside you.” Zandik moaned, “I want you to bear my children. Gods please.” All you could do is nod as you felt that coil tighten again in your stomach. 
“Please Zandik, I want to cum.” You moaned, the mere mention of his name made him go into overdrive. Circling his fingers around your clit faster, and faster. Every sense went into overdrive and you couldn’t hold it in longer. Clamping down on his cock you shook violently as you screamed out of his name. Zandik continue his rough pace fucking you through your high.When you came down from your high, you felt Zandik pull out of your overstimulated hole. You whine from the empty feeling, as Zandik let you fall to your knees, exhausted from everything. But Zandik wasn’t done, he stroked his dick faster and faster aiming it straight to your face. He cupped your chin making you look up at him with your fucked out face.
“So beautiful, so perfect. Just for me, tell me you want me.” Zandik breathed, he continued to stroke his dick before you stop his action. Confused, he watched as you replaced his hands with yours as you started to stroke him from base to tip. Zandik eyes blown wide from your actions he couldn’t help but start to thrust into your hands.
“I’m yours.” You muttered as you gave kitten licks on his tips. Zandik groaned as his dick twitched in your hands. The white warm semen painted your face, he had so much cum in him that by the time he finished you are probably sure your face is covered full of cum and blood. Zandik was breathing heavily as he gave a cackle. He smeared the cum and blood across your face, giving a small smile. 
“You look so beautiful with my cum painted all over your face.” You didn’t respond, only your heavy breathing was heard in the quiet bakery. You two stood in silence before Zandik noticed something outside the bakery, stuff his cock back into his slacks.
“Stay down there darling.” He smiled before turning towards the bakery door. You didn’t peak up but you heard the bakery bell ring indicating someone walked inside. 
“Lord Dottore! We’ve been looking all over for you.” Someone said, Lord Dottore? You mean the 2nd Fatui Harbinger? You looked up at “Zandik” who was annoyed by the disruption. 
“What is it?” He sounded annoyed. 
“We’ve located the gang that was harassing the bakery owner.” One of them stated, you watched as “Zandik” snatched the paper out of the person's hands.
“Very well, get to it then. I want any survivors sent to the lab. Have Prime deal with it.” He sounded a mix of boredom and anger as he dismissed the people who entered the bakery.
“Yes lord Harbinger.” They both said, before you hear them walking out of the bakery. Zandik turned back to you, giving you a wicked smile.
“Y-you’re the 2nd harbinger?” You whispered trying to scoot away.
“Oh are you scared now that you know my identity? Aw, you hurt me dear.” “Zandik” smiled, kneeling down to your level. He reached out for you stroking the cum and blood across your face.
“I promise you no one will hurt you again right?” You nodded at his statement, “Good. Now that I marked you I will always protect you… from anyone.”

Do The Thing
a/n: whoop, it's a big boy... think this is trapesing closer to worship territory than tickling but it is what it is. pls leave nice comments in the tags, i'm very much on the fence about this one
anon: 06. “Could you… do that to me?” with nick/charlie and make it about body positivity
Tickle Trope Prompts
(Heartstopper; Nick/Charlie)
3144 words
Warnings: body image struggles, ED struggles
Everyone struggles with their bodies. It was something Charlie was still learning. That didn't stop his brain from making him suffer regardless.
Charlie watched silently as Nick tried to organise some cables of his gaming console. Not that Nick was a messy person, by any means. Just every couple months, the small clutters would pile up to a state that bothered the older boy.
"It's not going to be any fun," he had told Charlie only earlier that day at school. "And it's actually kinda gross."
Charlie had shrugged. "I can still keep you company. Make sure you don't get distracted." A couple pokes to the other's ribs had been enough to get him to agree.
"Ah-Alright, alright. Even if you're gonna be the biggest distraction there."
"Mh-hm, right. Shut up and finish your essay."
It actually seemed a big help to Nick to just have someone there. At first, the bigger messes like dirty dishes and rubbish, disappeared quickly, not wanting to leave a bad impression, even if the two had been going out for quite a few months already.
Charlie didn't care. He knew how easy it was to lose track of the state of his room. He dreaded having to return home that evening, fully aware of the state his own room was in.
Once the cables were organised to Nick's liking, his next goal was the scatter of dirty laundry across his floor and piling up on his desk chair.
Except, as the older boy went to crouch, to push himself back up to his feet, the sound of tearing fabric made him freeze.
Charlie looked up from his phone, previously engrossed in curating an appropriate cleaning playlist. "What was th-aHah! Oh, no!" He slapped a hand over his mouth, which did little to muffle or reign in his surprised laughter.
A very obvious tear now graced the seat of Nick's jeans. Serves him right for not changing into some comfy sweatpants like he might have done any other day. But no. 'I'll be too comfortable then and not get anything done.' Well, at least that tactic had worked. Until now.
"Noo, I liked these," Nick whined but let out a laugh of his own. He moved to the mirror, trying to see how bad it was as he felt along the frays. "Yeah, there's no fixing that."
"How did you even do that?" Charlie was forced to bite down on his lip, still grinning like an idiot.
Nick scoffed playfully as he shimmied out of the jeans. "That's what happens with a  juicy, booty-licious arse." He made a point by shaking his butt a bit in Charlie's direction, which only made him snort with a cackle. "See? No tiny, twiggy butt to be found."
Their back and forth continued for another minute before Nick returned to the task at hand, seemingly happier without any jeans on, and Charlie focused back on his phone. Everything was fine. Until it wasn't.
That's not what he meant, he wasn't talking about me. But my arse is twiggy. Boney. He hates it. That's why he said that. I'm too skinny. Practically a skeleton. How could he ever love someone like me?
Without him even realising, Charlie's brain had latched onto Nick's words. A throwaway comment. A comment he had laughed at about not 30 minutes ago. But his spiralling didn't seem to go unnoticed.
"Char?"
Warm pressure at his ankle brought Charlie back to the present. He blinked, noticing the hand on his leg and following its arm until he reached a concerned face. "A-Are you done?"
Nick didn't reply immediately and only during the silence did Charlie notice the lack of music. He gazed at his phone to see that the playlist had finished. How long had he been zoned out?
"Right, sorry, uhm..." Charlie scrolled up and tapped the little shuffle icon, relieved as a familiar song awoke the little bluetooth speaker on Nick's dresser, albeit slightly more muffled. Nick must have turned the volume down.
Feeling Nick’s gaze linger, Charlie focused even more on his phone, refusing to meet his eye. 
Nick let out a soft sigh and went back to finishing up the last bit of cleaning he could be bothered about, knowing better than to force Charlie to talk. 
‘Great, now he’s annoyed with me too,’ Charlie thought, burying himself deeper in Nick’s hoodie. However, as if he had read his mind and just wanted to prove him wrong, Nick started to softly sing along to the music. Mostly to himself but very clearly not annoyed. That didn’t stop Charlie from scrolling through his phone almost manically, doing anything to stop himself from zoning out like that again.
“Ugh, finally.”
The mattress bounced under Nick’s weight as he dropped himself onto his bed beside Charlie. The latter lowered his phone, closing the game he had been playing for the last 15 minutes to glance around the room briefly. “Oh, you finished. Good job.” He patted Nick’s thigh and went to get up. “I should get home-”
“Wait, hang on.” A hand on his wrist made Charlie pause, slowly settling back in his spot. “Do I not get a congratulatory kiss?”
Charlie rolled his eyes playfully and leaned down, pressing his lips to the corner of Nick’s mouth. “Good jo-hmb.” Clearly, the older boy had other ideas on how his prize should look as he pulled Charlie back in for a proper kiss.
Even with Nick on his back, lying below him, Charlie could only go along with the other’s plans. The brush of a tongue against his lower lip was enough distraction to convince him to stay, however. 
A minute later they broke apart, both slightly breathless with rosy cheeks. Charlie brought a hand to Nick’s chest, using him to push himself upright again after being pulled down.
“Thanks,” Nick chirped, propping himself on his elbow. He took Charlie’s hand in his, refusing to let him get too far away, not ready to let him go home just yet. 
Charlie just stared at their hands, jaw clenching when Nick began to run his thumb over his boney knuckles. It took a lot of willpower not to pull his hand away.
“Not just for the kiss but for not letting me get distracted. And the music.” 
Charlie only gave a brief nod, fixing his eyes on the tidied desk. “That’s okay. Happy to help.” He felt a squeeze to his hand, and when he ignored it first, there was another. Hesitantly, he brought his gaze back to the other boy who was already looking at him with… fondness? No, that couldn’t be it-
“I love you.” There was no hesitation behind his words. Still it made Charlie’s brain short-circuit.
It wasn’t the first time he had heard those words. Those three special words. Thinking about the very first time still made him cringe a bit. How awkwardly he had gone about it.
“I-... Are you sure?” Charlie’s tone sounded playful, but to him, it was a genuine question. Did Nick really love him? Or did he just pity him, like Ben had?
“Hmm…” Nick pretended to think about the answer for a moment but fairly quickly came to a conclusive answer. “Yeah, pretty sure- Wait.” He laughed when he noticed Charlie’s reaction. “Why are you crying?” But as the other brought his hand up to cover his face, Nick’s smile faltered. “Hey, whoa, Char…”
Nick scrambled to sit up, arms flying around Charlie’s shaking shoulders. “Hey, it’s okay. You’re okay.” The younger boy buried his face in Nick’s chest, practically slumping into his lap. He shook his head. This was not how an okay person reacted to a love confession. What was he even crying about? This was ridiculous.
Rubbing soothing circles into Charlie’s back, Nick tried not to let his concern filter into his voice, knowing his boyfriend would just beat himself up if he knew he had upset Nick in any way. He continued to mumble sweet nothings, letting Charlie know that he was safe, that he wouldn’t be leaving his side. Nick couldn’t say he had been expecting this reaction, but from the way Charlie had been acting earlier, perhaps he should have known that it was something bigger.
It took some time but Charlie’s breaths rattled less with every passing minute until there was only the occasional sniffle every now and again. Nick could feel he was getting ready to pull away and gave him a reassuring squeeze, paired with a kiss to his messy curls, before allowing him to sit up again. 
Charlie used the back of his sleeve to dry his eyes before noticing the damp stain he had left on Nick’s t-shirt. “Oh, fuck. Sorry.” A watery laugh mingled with the words as he brought his hand up to try and dab it dry.
Nick just shook his head with a lopsided smile, holding onto Charlie’s wrist. It seemed the worst had washed away with the tears. “It’s just a shirt,” he mumbled and ducked his head in an attempt to catch Charlie’s gaze. “There you are.” He cupped Charlie’s face with both hands, thumbs brushing over his cheeks before he pressed a gentle kiss to one, then the other. “I’m pretty sure congratulatory cuddles were also part of the deal.”
Charlie raised his brow slightly, as if ready to argue that he had never entered such a deal but cuddles sounded like just the right thing so he just nodded. He keeled forward bringing his arms around Nick’s neck, his weight pressing against Nick’s chest and they both toppled over, each with a huff of their own. 
Nick fished around for Charlie’s phone, changing the music to a more cosy playlist before tossing it aside and fully engulfing the other boy with his arms. He could feel Charlie playing with his hair and gave an approving hum, head tilting slightly for better access. 
Charlie wasn’t sure how much time passed. The playlist was long. He had made it himself, after all. They had adjusted themselves slightly after about ten minutes to stop any limbs from falling asleep, and since then, Nick’s hands were beneath the hoodie, fingers drawing random shapes into the fabric of the shirt he wore beneath. 
It was comforting and distracting at the same time. Comforting enough that Charlie melted into the touch but so distracting, that all his brain wanted was to ask one specific question. The only problem was, he had never asked this question before. And with the way Nick’s hand was starting to pause every now and again, it couldn’t be long until the older boy would doze off. 
“Nick?” 
“Yeah?” Or maybe not.
Nothing more came and Nick’s eyes fluttered open. The surprise on Charlie’s face told him he had not expected him to still be awake. And in all honesty, he didn’t think Charlie was either.
Charlie’s nerve, that he had built up over the last three songs, was gone with one look from Nick’s warm eyes. “Uhm, could-” He couldn’t do it. His head ducked down and he buried himself in the crook of Nick’s neck. Maybe from here… He tried again.
“Could I what?” Nick asked, the muffled voice too intelligible, even right beside him. 
Charlie huffed and Nick was pretty sure he could feel the blush against his neck. “Do the thing?” 
Nick’s eyes narrowed in thought, unsure how to decipher the requisition. “‘The thing’?... What thing?”
A bit of a whine mingled with the second huff. Surely he was just messing with him. It was so obvious what he meant.
Nick chuckled, although apologetic, still amused by the other’s flustered frustration. “I’m sorry, Char. What thing? I don’t think we’re thinking about the same thing right now.”
Charlie buried himself deeper, refusing to answer. Or rather, too embarrassed to answer. It was a silly request anyway.
But Nick was patient… and knew how to persuade an answer out of him. He resumed his treatment against Charlie’s back, drawing generous swirls into the relaxed muscles, only to accidentally drift too close to more sensitive zones every now and again. 
It wasn’t enough to draw any audible reaction, but when Charlie shrunk back with a flinch, Nick was ready to give a totally sincere apology.
“That,” Charlie breathed out and Nick’s brain stalled. “Could-... Could you… do that… to me? The way you did last time?”
Nick moved his head back slowly so he could get a glimpse at Charlie’s face and was met with the most sheepishly innocent look. A grin lit up Nick’s face and he just nodded, planting a reassuring kiss against his temple before pulling back, giving Charlie enough space to get himself comfortable.
Once Charlie was in position, he looked over at Nick and gave his okay. Propped on his elbows, settled between Charlie’s legs, Nick slowly brought his hands beneath the hoodie again. Except this time, they intentionally found their way beneath the shirt to make contact with the warm skin below.
Charlie couldn’t help the soft gasp and brought a hand up over his mouth, unintentionally sucking his stomach in. “Shh,” Nick soothed, unable to stop smiling at his reaction. His hands trailed over his tense belly until the muscles finally relaxed, his touches slow and steady but deliberate, always leaving enough pressure that Charlie didn’t feel like curling up on himself.
 “How’s that?” Nick asked after a few minutes, his hands now moving in a predictable pattern.
Charlie hummed, eyes closed and one hand holding onto Nick’s forearm (just in case). “Don’t stop.” Once he knew where Nick’s hands were moving, it was easier to let go, his breath evening out as he focused on the trail of tingles Nick’s fingers left behind.
Nick chuckled, shaking his head. “Wasn’t thinking about it.” Perhaps this would become their new ritual.
This wasn’t the first time they had found themselves in this position. Although, the first time, their roles were reversed.
The boys had been out to eat with the rest of the Paris Squad. It had been someone’s birthday. There was pizza and burgers and chips and milkshakes. By the time Nick and Charlie got back to a bed, Nick had started to regret taking Darcy up on that bet, who could finish their milkshake the fastest. He had groaned most of the way home and even lying down hadn’t helped. He had just felt gross and like he never wanted to eat again.
Of course, Charlie had taken it upon himself to lift his boyfriend’s mood. Teasing and playful, it hadn’t taken long until light fluttering touches circulated over Nick’s belly. Had it not been for Nick’s worry of throwing up if he laughed too much, the treatment might have helped. But Charlie had been happy enough to shift gears. Slowing down and with more deliberate touches, Nick had eventually been able to relax, the soft zings from Charlie’s fingers lulling him in.
The second time, Nick had come to hang out at Charlie’s, only to find him bundled up with a thick jumper under his covers on one of the sunniest days of that spring. Without having to ask, Nick had crawled into bed with him, letting the other vent while offering his comfort. When Nick pointed out how much Charlie’s treatment had helped him that one time, Charlie didn’t see how he had anything to lose. It had taken a lot more convincing and adjusting for Charlie to trust the process but eventually settled down, practically turning to jelly in Nick’s hands.
Just like now. Despite Nick’s touches being considerably lighter from when he started, Charlie was still able to tolerate them, his fingers following the same path over and over. Down his stomach, along his waistband, over his hips, up his sides, across his ribs, down his stomach. It was almost mesmerising, even for Nick. And the lighter touches left behind a pleasant prickle on Charlie’s skin. 
Nick glanced up at Charlie. It was hard to tell if he was asleep or not but at least the corners of his mouth were turned upwards, only to turn down again when Nick’s hands slowed. “Noo,” Charlie whined quietly, lifting his head to look down at Nick.
“Just a short break.” The position wasn’t the best but Nick would take sore arms over a sore back any day. “Did it help?”
Charlie felt his cheeks heat up and he nodded, squeezing Nick’s forearm. “A lot. I see why you enjoyed it so much.”
Nick laughed that warm, gentle laugh of his. The one he reserved for quiet moments like these. “You’re cute.” His hands held onto Charlie’s hips, holding them steady as his head dipped down. The soft lips against his warm skin caught Charlie by surprise but couldn’t help but hum when the peppering continued over the rest of the exposed skin.
Something about every individual spot getting the same level of love and attention felt even more… intimate. And after just a couple minutes, it was too flustering to bear.
“Come here,” Charlie whispered, giving Nick’s arm a tug and soon let their lips collide.
The sound Nick made into his mouth made it obvious that he hadn’t expected such a kiss but was quick to follow along. They made out for a bit until simply settling down beside each other, wrapped up in each other’s arms, much like before. “Thanks.”
Nick hummed. “What for?”
“Don’t.” Charlie dropped his hand from where it was playing with his hair to flutter over the back of his neck.
“You’re welcome,” Nick laughed, shoulders scrunching up.
It would have been so easy to just drift off right then and there, if it weren’t for the pit in Charlie’s stomach. Just it wasn’t a pit of guilt or worry but something he was still learning to recognise for what it was.
"Nick?"
"Hm?"
"I-... I don't think I've eaten today."
"Oh, Char." It wasn’t resentment, or annoyance or disappointment, just gentle scolding.
“I know.”
Nick planted a last kiss to Charlie’s jaw before moving to the edge of his bed, his hand held out for Charlie to take. “Let’s go change that.”
Charlie eyed his hand, one side of his mouth pulling up higher. “Are you cooking?” He took the hand to pull himself upright before getting to his knees to position himself against Nick’s back.
Nick chuckled, placing his hands over the arms that settled over his chest. “Looks like I am.” He got to his feet slowly, slightly bent at the hip to accommodate the extra weight on his back. “But only if you’re sharing.”
“Hm, fine. But only ‘cause you’re cute. And because I love you. And because I’ll get to watch you cook in your underwear.”
“Yeah, but not only in my underwear.”
“I’ll take what I can get.”

Tartaglia | a solemn promise
Tumblr media
Pairing: Childe/Tartaglia x [f]traveler/Lumine
Genre(s)/theme(s): angst, fluff, fantasy, mild comedy, mutual pinning, slow-burn romance
Summary: He returned to his homeland after completing his mission in Liyue. But his mind was still thinking about her even though she was apart from him. He was waiting for his chance to see her once more...
Word count: 1.7k+
A/n: Took a long time to plot this fic out. Hope you all enjoy this fic! | Masterlist
Kindly help me reblog pls. Thank you :)
Tumblr media
After completing his mission at Liyue, he embarked on his trip back to his homeland. Snezhnaya, the frozen island where summer could not be seen most of the time.
He returned alone. 
Signora, the eighth Harbinger who was supposed to return together with him, was entrusted with a new mission at Inazuma. She has already left together with Scaramouche, the sixth Harbinger months ago.
He wished that he could join his comrades in that mission, knowing she would be heading there as well. However, there was no order from the Tsaritsa requesting him to tag along with them.
‘Would she be safe?’ he clenched his fists, having to know their ways of handling matters were ruthless. 
The ache in his heart grew as his chest gets tighter when he pictured her in a likely devastating state.
“I’m back!” Scaramouche walked in from behind, his lips curled in a smug way.
His dull-blue eyes widened. 
The Balladeer had returned without any scratch inflicted on his skin. 
He took a deep breath. Trying to compose himself before turning to him. Hidden away his true emotions as he faced him.
“Y-You’re back early. Mission accomplished?” smiling awkwardly.
“Of course! I was able to get that Gnosis without any trouble this time. Even though that traveler tried to interfere,” Scaramouche sneered.
“Ah! I see,” faking his smile while anxious about her safety in his mind, ‘He has indeed encountered her!’
“I almost going to end her life if it wasn’t for this Gnosis trade with a certain sly priestess!” he folded his arms up, annoyed that he did not succeed in taking the traveler’s life in the end. 
“Eh…?” he blinked his eyes, “so the traveler didn't die at your hands?” bewildered by what he had just heard.
“That’s right!” he shouted in vexation, “but rather…I heard that Signora was killed after challenging the traveler into a duel,” switching the topic when he thought of his fallen comrade all of the sudden.
“Eh?” he blinked, and blinked, “who killed her?” astonished that Signora would be killed, despite her abilities being powerful to be acknowledged as the Crimson Witch of Flame.
“After being defeated by the traveler, Shogun ended her life as the loser of the challenge. Ha! That stupid arrogant woman…” he sniggered.
‘Thank goodness…’ he sighed with relief in secret, ‘I guess at least she is safe for now.’
“By the way, the Tsaritsa has called you to make a trip to Inazuma island as soon as possible,” giving him a contempt stare, “It seems there are some cursed seals that she wants you to investigate.”
“Eh?” he blinked, “Me? To Inazuma?” pointing his finger to himself. He was stunned by what he had just been informed.
“Hope you are cautious enough to avoid getting hit by those violet bolts of lightning on your way there,” cackled menacingly as he leave.
‘I could go there? To Inazuma? To see her…?’ his eyes beamed with pleasure as he could finally get the chance to see her again.
“My Lord,” his underlings approached him from behind and kneeled their feet onto the ground, “shall we accompany you to the island?”
“No need,” he spoke in a stern tone, furrowing his brows as he turned to them, “I can settle this myself.” glaring fiercely at them.
“Yes, My Lord,” their bodies trembled lightly before standing up from kneeling. They walked away and leave their lord's side.
He left his homeland once more after leaving the cold palace. 
His exhilarated gaze fixed on the direction of those islands despite cooling breezes touching his skin and turbulence waves rocking his vessel. The corners of his lips curled up when he could sense his vessel was getting closer to the nearest dock.
Tumblr media
“Thank goodness the Vision Hunt Decree has ended,” Paimon sighed with relief.
“Yea…it’s finally over…” sitting under a blossomed sakura tree at Amakane Island, she turned her gaze at the distant capital city which was glittering under the dusky sky.
She then closed her eyes. Recalling those anguish moments that she had encountered ever since her arrival on these isolated islands. Tears began to roll down and wet her cheeks. The feeling of sorrow, which she had bottled up in her heart for months, burst all out in a blast. Days without him at her side also added to her distress.
“EHHH!!!” Paimon exclaimed, “Are you all right?! Why are you crying?” scrutinizing in confusion as she swung around in panic.
‘The Delusion?!’ wiping her tears off with her hands, she recalled the life-draining effect that Teppei and the rest had suffered after using that dangerous item.
‘What if…he is experiencing the same side effect as them when the more he uses his Foul Legacy?!’ her eyes widened in realisation, ‘NO!!!’ shaking her head while shutting her eyes tightly, ‘I don’t want THAT to happen again!’ putting her hands on top of her head as images of Teppei's last moment surfaced out of her memories.
‘I don’t want him to be like…’ tears started to roll from her eyes again. Hugging her knees towards her chest. She laid her forehead on top of her folded forearms. Hiding away her damped face.
“AHH! Really! What's wrong with you?” that floating creature screamed in an anxious tone.
“What’s the matter…?” a masculine voice approached her from afar.
She raised her head. A tall young man with orange hair was standing in front of her. Her eyes widened.
‘Tartaglia…?’ staring incredulously at him. 
He knelt his legs on the ground covered with grass. Fixing his gentle gaze at her. He reached out his hand to touch her face as his finger brushed away a drop of her tear from the side of her lower eyelid.
“Who made you cry?” a sudden irritated look flashed across his eyes, after taking a glimpse of her tear on his finger. He bent his fingers in toward his palm, clutching intensively into a fist.
“W-Well…i-it’s not ME!!!” Paimon swiftly flew away from danger, leaving the two alone.
Perceiving his enraged gaze, she jumped onto him right away. Digging her face into his firm chest.
“Eh?!” his cheeks blushed lightly. His butt fell onto the ground as his legs lost their balance. He was stunned by her sudden approach.
“No…” she mumbled, lifting her gaze and staring onto his, “Nobody made me cry...” shook her head lightly.
His gloved palm cupped her cheek while another held onto her slender waist.
“Why are you crying then?” locking his tender gaze at her steadily.
“I-I…” stuttering her words as she looked away from his gaze, “I-I was worried about you…” her cheek blushed faintly.
“Worried about me?” he blinked his eyes, staring at her with puzzlement. 
“Yes!” her tears rolled down and wet his glove, “I was worried that you might end up the same as Teppei and the rest! The Delusion that devoured people's life force! I was afraid that you might…”
He drew her closer to him, embracing her tightly in his arms.
“I’m not going to die like them,” he whispered into her ear, “I’m different from them…”
The tension around her muscles relaxed. He gazed affectionately at her while his lips curled softly. His hand caressed her flushed cheeks.
“Then…” she stared at him firmly, “would you promise me that you will not use your Delusion recklessly?”
His dull-blue eyes widened with astonishment, letting out a chuckle after hearing such a fascinated declaration from her lips.
“So…” curling his lips in a conceited way, “does this mean you are willing to become my girl?”
She pushed herself away from him, covering her mouth with her hands. Her cheeks reddened even more. Astounded by his interpretation of her blurted words.
She has been struggling to conceal her feelings for him, due to the fact he is a Fatui Harbinger. Though she was aware that he was different from the rest of the Harbingers, she still felt reluctant to confess.
“Only my girl has the privilege to ask me to make such a promise,” whispering into her flushed ear in a mischievous tone. 
His hand took a lock of her blonde hair that shone like the luminous moon in the starry sky, pressing a kiss onto it.
“So…what is your response?” locking his unwavering gaze at her, “would you like to be my girl?” 
She held his hand that fondled her hair, placing it on her cheek. Gazing at him with endearment. She shyly nodded her head.
He pulled her body against his in a flash. Pressing his thirsting lips onto hers while his hand holding onto her cheek, and another onto her waist.
‘T-Tartaglia?!’ her eyes widened in surprise.
“Did you know that I have waited long for you to agree to be my girl?” his yearning gaze stared onto hers as they parted their lips slightly, before forcefully pressing over her soft lips once more. 
He brushed her lips with his. Trying to find his way to slide his tongue between her lips. He moved his hand to the back of her head from her cheek, caressing her head as he gently slid his tongue across her bottom lips. She drew a deep staggered breath in response to the wave of heat she felt flowing inside her mouth.
Their tongues twisted and turned inside, intertwined each other as if dancing a slow tune until he felt her relaxed in his arms. After a few lingering seconds, he reluctantly pulled his lips away. Ending the kiss when he sensed she was almost out of breath.
“T-Tartaglia…” she panted, slightly dewy-eyed after all the thrill.
‘Look like she needs to learn to breathe if we are going to do this again the next time,’ he chuckled at the messy appearance that he had made on her.
“Ajax,” cupping her flushed cheek with his hand, “call my real name...” he looked into her amber eyes tenderly.
“A-Ajax,” turning her gaze away bashfully, “the promise…will you vow that promise to me?”
He took her hand and gently pressed his lips onto the back of her hand while shutting his eyes in brief.
“I promise. In the name of my Archon…”
Tumblr media
+BONUS PART+
“I-I can’t believe the traveler is smooching here with someone…” Ayaka peeked at them from afar while hiding behind the bushes. Her cheeks awkwardly blushed while covered with her favourite fan.
“That guy is so daring. Hehehe…” Yoimiya giggled. Enjoyed the complimentary romance scene as she hid together with Ayaka.
“Why are they here too?...” Paimon sighed.

HELLO IT IS I (impulsively-made-tickle-blog) and i thank you for your note once aGAIN <333!!! that‘s my favorite part too lol :D i‘m happy you keep enjoying my stuff!! ^^ <333
tickle asks if you want:
how would you hc the bakusquad‘s relationship with tickling? think they‘d have tickle fights? :'D (i love this thing by happyandticklish where kiri tickles any of the squad who Need To Calm Down Right Now) do you have a favorite tickle technqiue (as lee and/or ler)?
ofc!! ur fics are my fave i cant not <3 here i’m gonna tag u since ur on anon LMAO @impulsively-made-tickle-blog
alright SO i went overboard with this request bc i just really wanted to write abt bakusquad tickles and this gave me the PERFECT excuse, so this is basically my hc for the first time they ever had a tickle fight!!
and before i get into the bakusquad thing, i do have my personal fav tickle methods >:) (my mood has drastically switched to ler after writing this so that’s where im at with this method LMAOO) i would love to have a lee with their arms over their head, bound or not, and just. hover. my fingers over their torso. i love good old fashioned anticipation, it really gets the nerves goin LMAOO so just any kind of tickling that involves teasing and anticipation is 100% my favorite, hands down.
okay SO back to the squad :)
when they first became a Friend Group TM, tickling was not yet apart of their relationship
the first time it was introduced into the group was during a hangout where sero and denki were playing video games while the others were with them doing their own stuff
but denki is a little fuckin cheater when it comes to games, and sero is not someone who’s just gonna let that slide without consequence
so without hesitation sero just pushes denki down onto his back (since they were sitting on the floor anyways) and just digs into his ribs like there’s no tomorrow
denki is a LOUD squealer and cackler, and quite the kicker, so this immediately caught the attention of everybody else in the room (which was just the squad but still)
“SEROHOHO!! ahahaaAHAAHAAAA NOHOHO!! NO TIHIHICKLES!! BAD SEROHOHO!! BAHAHAD!!”
kirishima was SO excited pls, this boy has been WAITING for tickling to finally make its way to their group, cause i personally hc that he’s very nervous abt making others upset with tickling so he Has to make sure they like it or are at least okay with it before he can tickle someone
he starts shoving at bakugou excitedly, who’s just looking down at the cackling mess that used to be kaminari with a fake annoyed look on his face, but eventually kiri just cant take it anymore and has to join in by launching himself over there and lifting denki up to a sitting position, locking his arms under his so he can’t fight sero back
at that point, mina really wanted to get involved somehow, it just looked like sm fun!! but sero and kiri already had denki, and she didn’t wanna overdo it…..
….and then she saw bakugou…sitting there…now alone
was he going to kill her? yes. definitely. absolutely.
but god was it gonna be worth it to just hear him fucking laugh for once
but she’s gotta be subtle. she’s gotta plan this out…
..fuck it shes too impatient
mina hops over excitedly and plops herself right down next to bakugou, grinning at him like last nights supper, and bakugou…
…bakugou feels himself get…nervous
it’s only for a second. but he felt it, and goddamnit if he’s gonna let some extra who is definitely not his fucking friend make him feel like that again
“don’t fucking try it, pinky! i’ll blow your ass all the way to timbuktu and back!”
she thinks for a moment.
then she giggles.
then she strikes
mina moves fast and rough, like one would in a fight because it’s bakugou and she has to, and she was able to get in three good squeezes to his sides when she heard him wheeze
he wheezed!!
she revelled in her accomplishment…but her victory didn’t last long
bakugou pushed her off him immediately, her back landing on the other end of the couch with a surprised gasp, quickly crawling over her and immediately digging his fingers into the sides of her belly
mina SCREAMS, like she’s trying to fight back the laughs with pure loud unadulterated sound, before his hands move down maybe three inches lower to her hips and she just crumbles into a fit of wild laughs and squeals
“thought you could get the upper hand on me, huh, dumbass?! think again!!” bakugou sneers, his heart racing because oh shit she got really fucking close to making me laugh for a second. “i’m not even ticklish, but it sure looks like one of us is”
mina is screaming through her cackles, and at this point the three boys on the floor had already stopped their tickle fest to watch them because holy shit. bakugou is tickling mina right now.
bakugou katsuki is in a tickle fight
and he’s winning. of course he’s winning. he’s fucking bakugou, he wins at EVERYTHING
but then they hear a tiny bit of coherency through the screams and cackles of mina ashido, and it changes fucking everything
“h-HEHEHEE!! H-HE’S LYIHIHING! AHAAHA STAHAAP NAHAAAA!! HE’S TIHIHICKLIHIHSH!! HEHELP M-MEEHEHE AHAHAAHA-!!”
bakugou doesn’t stop tickling, he cant, his whole fucking life is at stake here!! or- well- at least his dignity, but that costs about the same as a human life in his books
but sero kiri and denki are all overcome with the most powerful feeling they’d ever felt
they’re gonna take bakugou down. together.
they jump up and rush to bakugous sides, all internally trying to decide how to go about it first, before kirishima just gets impatient and shoves his fingers up into bakugous exposed armpits, thanks to him tickling mina
bakugou practically barks, lurching forward trying to shove his arms down to his sides as he starts squirming and twisting to get those fucking hands out of there damnit!!!
he tried to stay stable, he tried so hard to be strong, but..
..but jesus fuck it tickled so much
sero and denki grin at each other when they realize mina was right, he’s fucking ticklish, and sero latches a hand onto bakugous side to pinch and squeeze, while denki shoves all his fingers right into bakugous neck, making the blonde screech and scrunch up
bakugou was down in seconds
pinned on his back against the couch, squirming and writhing and cackling despite himself
he couldn’t help it!! there were fingers EVERYWHERE, poking and prodding and squeezing and scribbling god the scribbling was going to make him fucking combust
not the mention that they were all TALKING. no. no, not just talking.
they were teasing him
“awww, looks like we’ve got a little liar on our hands, huh guys?” mina coos, scribbling those EVIL nails against his bare foot, her whole body weight against his shins so he couldn’t even kick out and stop her
“dude, you’re so ticklish!! you should’ve told us before, it’s so manly!” kirishima beams, his praise turning bakugous cheeks and ears a deep shade of red
“oh cmon, kiri, you know kacchans ego is way too big to admit he’s weak to a little tickling,” denki used a baby voice when he said that stupid fucking word and bakugou thought he was going to die
“n-nohoho!! i-it’s- ahaHAHAA GAHAHA NOHOHO!! I’M N-NOHOHOT!! STAHAHAPP!!” he knew he sounded like an idiot, he was fucking incoherent for christs sake, but he had to try to defend himself
“dude, seriously, did you not expect us to tickle you when you got mina? that’s like, the main rule of a tickle fight; you tickle someone, and you’re gonna get tickled, man,” sero chuckled, his fingers wiggling into bakugous ribs, making the blonde throw his head back with a guffaw
“you know that means i’ve totally gotta get you back, right?” denki side-eyes sero with a grin, his fingers now scribbling against the shell of bakugous pink ears
“yeah yeah, in due time. right now, we’re on a mission,” sero could feel his heart pick up at the threat, butterflies being born in the pit of his tummy just at the thought of being in bakugous position
“heck yeah we are!! mission title: make bakugou snort!” kirishima laughed as his finger spidered over bakugous bouncing belly
“n-nohohoho!! ahahaa gohohod-!! i ca-ahAHAaha-!! i c-cahahan’t!! nohohoho!”
“you cant? cant what, blasty? cant snort, or cant take the tickling?” mina smiled, basically just playing with his toes at this point because he very clearly couldn’t stand it and it was just too cute not to watch
“kk-kahAHAHA!! i dohon’t knohahaha-!! it tihihickles!! f-fuhuhuck y-yOHOHOO g-guhuhuys!!” bakugou was flushed all the way down to his chest in embarrassment and fluster, the noises he was making only adding to his torment now that his friends were openly laughing at the sounds
kirishima chuckled, giving him one good vibrating claw into his belly to make him howl in laughter, before backing off
everyone else backed off with him, smiles etched into their faces as they watched bakugou curl into himself, giggling as he caught his breath and protected his poor belly and sides with his arms
denki giggled, patting him on the shoulder and only giggling harder at the fact that it made him flinch
“aww, poor kacchan. did the tickle monster getcha, buddy?” denki teased, now feeling zero fear when he heard the boy growl under him
“cmon, cutie, you’ve gotta get up now! me, you, denki, and kiri have to tickle the snot out of sero before he gets away!” mina poked him in the side, smiling when he jumped with a giggly whine
once bakugou recovered, both sero and kirishima were properly tickled like the rest of them had been, because fair is fair <3
sero is quite the begger when he’s being tickled, constantly bargaining and pleading for them to either stop or move to another spot
“pleheheasee!! ahaaha- shihihit! ahahanything!! i-i’ll- ahahaa- i’ll gihihive y-you ahahny-THIHIHAHA!! nahahaa-!!”
and when they were tickling kiri, they found out pretty quickly that he is far more sensitive to gentle tickles than rough squeezy ones
so they pretty much murdered him with soft tickles, their nails scribbling all over his body in a way that had his voice screechy and pitchy and downright fucking adorable
“EHEHEEeheheee!! gaahahaha nohoho!! it tihihickles!! guhuhuyss-!! ohoho gohohod-!!”
so YEAH that was longer than i intended it to be but that’s pretty much how i think their first tickle fight went :) and trust me after this it was basically daily tickles from there on out, SOMEONE in the group is gonna get tickled at any given point

-Never Meant To Be- Draco Malfoy x Female Reader
    ☼-🐍-☼
   Request: What about a angsty fic with Draco where he doesn't want to reveal that he's with a Hufflepuff (even tho she's a pureblood) bc of his image, and she sees him flirting with Pansy and she decides to ignore him until he realizes that she's ignoring him, and he wants to approach but her friend is like "dude u fucked up i have to console her every five seconds" fluffy ending pls!
   Kody: damn, i can’t make Pansy gay in here. Sad pog. I also added some extra odds and ends for plot. I hope you still like it anyhow! Also no voldy moldy action. before i get questions, i am indeed fully aware that Fred, George, and Cedric are older then the rest of them. I just do not care lmao. 
   Year: 7th
   House: Hufflepuff
   Possible Triggers/Warnings: cursing, angst, Draco sadly being character, Cedric being the bestest of friends, eventual fluff
   ☼-🐍-☼
   you had always fantasized about what having a lover was like. Full of love, honesty, and trust. Who knew you would get secrecy and lies instead. You were in a secret relationship with the one and only Draco Malfoy. It had started almost a whole year ago.
   yes. You both were well into graduating soon and still had to sneak around to be together. You might be wondering why right? Draco truly loved you, but he was terrified of his father. Even if you were a pureblood, you weren’t a Slytherin. So if he wanted to keep you, he’d have to hide you. 
   Draco set ground rules so “We don’t disappoint anyone” you wished he had worded that differently. To sum up the short list, no interacting in public or any public displays of affection. Your were his dirty little secret. You would never want to hurt his feelings, because you loved him.
   so you agreed to his rule, but slowly it started to become unbearable. Seeing each other for little amounts each week was painful. Especially how when you were apart, Draco was the same old taunter he always was. You wondered if you made an effect on him at all.
   you were lucky you didn’t have to bare this sorrow alone. Your best friend, Cedric Diggory had found out about your little love affair when he found Draco’s Quidditch jersey in your dorm. You eventually caved and told him and ever since Cedric loathed the Slytherin seeker.
    ☼-🐍-☼
   “I’m starving” Cedric grumbled as he walked alongside you, scratching the back of his neck. He had early quidditch practice and had just came back from the showers to eat breakfast, while you had just woken up and were wearing your pjs still. 
   it was a saturday morning after students had been taking exams all week. So every Hogwarts student was in there pajamas at the moment and no one cared. “Yeah me too. After all the exams i can’t wait to graduate in a week now” you chuckle, reaching up to rub your E/c eyes.
   Cedric nods “Yeah, me and Harry have been talking about moving in together after we graduate” he says, a smile forming on his face. You gasp, nudging his arm with your shoulder “That’s great! i’m happy for you, really” he enjoys your enthusiasm, but his smile fades “What?” you question.
   he looks behind him before answering “What about you and Malfoy. What are your plans?” your expression drops. “Um well, we haven’t really talked about it. He has to work around his parents and all that” Cedric knew that explanation was bullshit. He didn’t believe Draco wanted to keep you around at all. 
   but for the sake of your heart, he sucked it up. Putting a smile he wraps an arm around your shoulders “That’s awesome Y/n. Now onwards, food awaits!” he exclaims. You break out into a fit of laughter before the both of you make your way to the great hall.
    ☼-🐍-☼
   “Cedric!” Harry shouts as soon as both of you walk through the great hall doors. Cedric leads you over to the Gryffindor table and you take a seat next to Luna. On the right side was Cedric, Harry, Hermione, and Ron. On the right side, your side sat George, Luna, then you. 
   “Geez, we’re all wearing our pjs aren’t we?” Hermione pointed out and you all let out a chuckle. “Can you blame us? Exams were such a drag. I’m surprised i didn’t throw myself off the school building” Ron scoffs. “At least they are over now. I have so many naps to catch up on” Luna sighs, leaning on Georges shoulder.
   suddenly, the food appeared on the table and you could hear the chorus of cheers come from students. Everyone started to pile the array of breakfast foods with haste. George managed to snatch the last serving of pudding and put it on Luna’s plate. You wondered if Draco would do that for you.
   you grab some french toast and piled on a hoard of bacon on your plate. “Oh merlin. Draco Stop!” a cackle bursted through the great hall, causing your small group to turn your heads towards the noise. Sat at the Slytherin table was Pansy Parkinson and Draco Malfoy, your boyfriend. Flirting.
   “What? I mean it. Your very pretty” a sharp pain came to your chest. This hasn’t happened before. Draco flirting with Pansy. He had never done this before. Why was he doing this? “Y/n?” Cedric looked up at you and reached across the table to grab your hand.
   Pansy gripped Draco’s bicep, a flirty smile playing on her features. She was beautiful and everything he could ever want. She was enough. You suddenly felt sick to your stomach and pushed up from the bench. “Y/n-” “I have to use the bathroom” you said before Cedric could get a word in.
   you began to walk away and out the great hall. ‘Damnit Draco. Why do you have to be like this?’ you thought as tears started to form in your eyes, rolling down your cheeks. You wipe them quickly and harshly. All you wanted was to be alone. 
    ☼-🐍-☼
   you had spent the whole breakfast crying in Moaning Myrtle’s bathroom. She cried with you as well. The sound of students flooded the halls and you knew that meant your friends would be looking for you. That also meant Draco would be waiting for you. 
   meeting up with Draco in the astronomy tower had become like second nature, but you didn’t want to seem him. It would hurt to much cause as soon as you would look into those grey eyes the look he gave Pansy would burn into your mind a million times over. 
   you just couldn’t. You get up from the floor, wiping your eyes “Thanks Myrtle. Your nice to talk to” you said. The ghost girl smiles, hovering over the ground “No worries! Now i must tend to my studies!” she exclaims flying into her stall. 
   smiling, you walk out the bathroom and are instantly met with the sight of your friends standing in front of the entrance. George, Luna, Cedric, Harry. “What’re you guys doing out here?” you asked, tilting your head. “We we’re waiting for you so we can hang out” Cedric smiled, his arm around Harry.
   “Hang out? Where? Shouldn’t we change out of our pj's?” you questioned. George shook his head “Nah, i’m taking all of you to my dorm for an unofficial pajama party. Now onwards and upwards” he grabbed Luna’s hand and skipped along with her.
   “Wheres Ron and Hermione by the way?”
   “Said they were busy. So probably making out somewhere”
   “ah okay”
    ☼-🐍-☼
   all of you went into the Gryffindor house and into Georges dorm passing Fred who decided to tag along because he had nothing to do today. As you all settled in George and Luna sat on the bed while Cedric, Harry, Fred, and you took the floor.
   you four sat on pillows and blankets. “Now now. I have an entire stash of sugar quills!” George announced as he pulls out a box out from under his bed. He reaches in and grabs a blue one, blueberry and hands it to Luna “These aren’t tampered with right George?” you asked as he walked over to you.
   “I gave one to Luna. Your safe, for now” He sent you a playful wink making you laugh. Fred grabbed an orange one, Harry a watermelon, and Cedric a Strawberry. George went over to you and you reached in without thinking. You liked all the flavors so why not. You grasp one and pull it out.
   green apple. George goes back over to the bed and unwraps a pineapple flavored sugar quill. Everyone unwrapped there’s as well. You looked at the quill and it reminded you of Draco. Draco, your boyfriend. Your Slytherin boyfriend who flirted with another girl.
   Snap!
   you look down at your hands. You snapped the sweet in half, leaving the middle of it in small crumbles that were leaking out the package. “Woah, what did the sugar quill do to you?” Fred says, reaching over to grab it from your hands. 
   “Flirt with another girl, treat me like i’m some sort of stain on his life, hide me away from everyone even though all i want to do is be with him. All the time!” You sputtered out, your hand going over to your mouth. Awkward silence filled the room. A ant could be heard crawling around if you listened hard enough now.
   “Y/n” Cedric spoke, sympathy was present in his tone. You felt tears welling up in your eyes again “What- What’s going on?” George spoke up, getting off the bed along with Luna. They all sat in front of you now with a look of expectancy. “I have something to tell you guys”
   Cedric shook his head “You don’t have to tell them Y/n” he said “Tell us what? Cedric?” Harry looked at his boyfriend who just gave him a sympathetic smile. You took a deep breath “I had a boyfriend for almost a year now” you said, eyes widening around you. “You what!” The twins said at the same time.
   they both quiet down after Cedric glared at them “It’s Draco Malfoy” you added. A smile forms on Luna’s face “I know” she spoke in her soft voice. George snaps his head in her direction “and you didn’t tell me?!” he exclaimed, her smile staying. “It wasn’t my secret to tell Georgie”
   the Weasley twin just sighed and pressed a kiss to her temple, mumbling something about her always being right. “You’ve been dating Malfoy for almost a year now and kept it a secret because, why?” Harry spoke up. You exhale before answering “He’s scared of what his father would think”
   Fred shook his head “More like his reputation. Wasn’t he all over Parkinson at breakfast. Word spreads at Hogwarts” he scoffs. You open your mouth to speak, but nothing comes out. “Y/n you have to start thinking about your future, with out Malfoy” Cedric speaks, rubbing your back with his hand.
   “But-” “-But nothing Y/n. I love you like a sister and i know you love him, but he’s just using you. After graduation he’s going to throw you away because that’s who Draco Malfoy is, a user and a asshole who cares about his reputation more then what’s in front of him” Cedric was fuming with anger.
   Harry wraps his arms around him, his head digging into the Hufflepuffs back. Cedric visibly calms and leans back into Harry “Sorry” he mumbles. Tears streamed down your face as Fred pulls your body next to his, wrapping his arms around you. He presses a firm kiss to your head “It’ll be okay princess”
   will it though?
    ☼-🐍-☼
    you avoided Draco Malfoy all sunday and monday. You had time to think about what you wanted and what Draco wanted. As much as you didn’t want to think about what Cedric had said, your mind did. Maybe he was right. Maybe Draco was using you for all you were worth.
   As Cedric walked the halls with Fred Weasley a certain platinum blond stopped in front of him “Diggory. A word please” he spoke, with slight irritation. “What in the hell do you want Malfoy?” he snapped back. Fred had a small grin on his face.
   Draco looked at Fred and eyed him up and down before looking back at Cedric “Alone” he says. Fred raises his hands up before nudging Cedrics shoulder. Fred walks down the hall, leaving the two alone, per Draco’s request. “Okay speak” the hufflepuff crossed his arms.
   “Wheres Y/n? i haven’t talked to her in three days. Is she okay?” Cedric hated how worried Draco suddenly sounded now after what he did. Cedric let out a bitter laugh “You can drop the act Malfoy. We both know you could care less about Y/n. Don’t you have pug face anyway?”
   Draco suddenly realized what was going on. He sighs and rubs a hand over his face “Shit. Look she was coming onto me, i was just messing around. What right do you have in our relationship anyway?” he said, clearly taking offense to his questioning. Cedric. Fucking. Snapped.
   “Seriously!? Everytime you fuck up i’m there to pick up the fucking pieces! She’s so stupidly in love with you, for some reason that she ignores it and moves on everytime! She broke down in front of me on saturday because of the stupid shit you did!” Cedric was co close to punching him the face.
   he took a couple deep breaths and stepped back while Draco stood frozen “Your not there because you don’t care Malfoy. I never said anything to her before because i wanted her to be happy, but i did on saturday. You will always care about reputation more than Y/n and she knows that now”
   with those parting words Cedric turned on his heels and walked away. Draco blinked mindlessly before walking back as well. 
   ☼-🐍-☼
   Thursday. One day till graduation. You were holding a box full of colored tinsel that needed to be in the great hall so the planning committee could hang it up. You were passing by in a empty hallway “Need any help, love?” you stop mid step, turning to your left.
   “Draco?” you slowly place the box down and look up at him. He seems nervous. He takes a step, arms reaching out for a hug but you step back instead. “Love, what you saw with Pansy i-” “You don’t have to explain Draco, i understand” you nod once. A smile grows on your face.
   “Oh thank merlin. Let’s drop this off and hang out somewhere, yeah?” he asked, but you shake your head “I understand that no matter how much i want to be with you. We’re just to different. Draco, we don’t work” you spoke, about to lean down and pick up the box again when Draco grabs your arms.
   “If Diggory said i don’t love you that’s the farthest from the truth. I am in love with you Y/n L/n, it’s just my father and the public eye on me. Please don’t do this i- i- can’t live without you” Draco was breaking down in front of you and it was a sight to see.
   you held your composure the best you could, practically forcing yourself to not breakdown as well and hug him close to you. Instead you smile lightly and remove his hands from your arms “I don’t doubt you love me, but you should be with somebody your father approves of if his opinion matters that much to you. It’s okay Draco. It was never meant to be. Have a good life”
   you bend down to pick up the box, leaving the Slytherin boy to weep alone. You could hear his quiet sobs behind you and had to bite your lip so you wouldn’t cry out as well. You had done it. You had left Draco Malfoy and in all honesty. You felt as if a part of you had been ripped out.
    ☼-🐍-☼
   friday, graduation day. You and Luna were getting ready. You both had picked dresses to wear under your graduation robes. You chose a short black dress while Luna chose a long white sundress. After finishing up, you both made your way to the great hall.
   Professor Dumbledore and Mcgonagall said there announcements and gave out a few awards. Cedric Diggory got one for quidditch, which you cheered loudly for. After those some students gave speeches. Hermione’s was very sweet and short and you enjoyed it.
   after the clapping died down Mcgonagall stood up “Next student to say a few words is Draco Malfoy” the Slytherins cheered loudly for there headboy while you sunk into your seat. Draco stood up and shrugged off his robes, leaving him in a all black suit and tie. So handsome- wait. Stop Y/n.
   he walked up to the front and gave the crowd a slight smile. Oh yeah, i forgot to mention that parents were aloud to attend the ceremony. No wonder he wanted to speak. He needed to impress his father. Typical. You sigh and prepare yourself for what's to come.
   “Thank you Professor. When i first came to Hogwarts the only thing on my mind was my education, but i made friends along the way and found comfort in people around me like Blaise Zabini and Theodore Nott, my best mates.” he points towards the two in the crowd and they stand up momentarily to wave.
   you shake your head. Could this be over already? “Hogwarts has become my second home really. It’ll be hard to leave this place and not return next year to all the places i loved to visit, like the astronomy tower” your heart tugged, you couldn’t do it. Standing up from the table, you walk towards the exit.
   “you might be wondering why that place is my favorite out of all the wondrous parts about Hogwarts. Well, it was where i was most happy because i-” Draco looked at his father, then his mother before continuing. “it’s where i met my love” you stopped walking as collective gasps erupted throughout the hall. 
   you turn slowly and look at Draco “Yes, save your shock. I Draco Malfoy am in love with Y/n L/n and i’m tired of hiding it.” what the hell was he doing? Students whispered to each other and others gave sympathetic stares at Pansy. His father looked furious.
   everyone then looked towards you as Draco stepped away from the front and made his way to you. Oh no “I haven’t been a good boyfriend by hiding you away and Diggory was right. I chose my reputation over you and i shouldn’t have because in the end you were always the one that stuck around”
   a cane stops him from walking and he looks up to see his father glaring at him “Draco, you will stop this nonsense and we will leave at once. You will not tarnish the Malfoy legacy over some feeble Hufflepuff girl” he spat. Draco’s eyes narrowed at his father. He lifts his hand and slips off the Malfoy ring he wore.
   he dropped it on the ground, causing a metallic sound. “Fuck your legacy and your small minded bullshit. Cut me off, i don’t care. Never speak to me again, i. Don’t. Care, but you won’t talk about Y/n that way. Goodbye father” he pushed the cane away and rushed towards you.
   “Draco! Get back here now!” his father shouted. Draco grabs your hand and runs out the great hall with you. You unclip your robe and watch it fly off into it reached the ground. 
   your friends watched you run off. George turned to Fred who had a small smile on his face “You okay Freddie?” he asked, nudging his twins shoulder. “I never had a chance with her did i?” he says, sighing deeply. George purses his lips, shaking his head.
   Cedric sighed deeply, leaning back into his seat “Not bad, Malfoy”
    ☼-🐍-☼
   you both ran out the school. It was raining, not too hard though. Suddenly Draco stops, causing you to do the same “What?” you say, the rain wetting your H/c hair. He pulls you into his chest and uses the other hand to pull you in for a kiss. It’s sweet and passionate, you wished it would last a lifetime.
   as you pull away you see his platinum blond hair flatten, raindrops cascading down his face “I’ll never betray you again Y/n. If you’ll be mine again. We’ll move in together and make a legacy of our own. I promise” he says, leaning his forehead against yours. 
   “That’s all i ever wanted” and with that, you both kiss again. 
    ☼-🐍-☼
   Kody- served hot and fresh with extra extra cheese for all you fluff lovers. Anyways, peace.

Tumblr media
You smile in amusement as you rub lotion on your legs having just gotten out of the shower, watching your boyfriend tapping all over the screen of his phone in confusion. “Chris. It’s really not that complicated,” you remark with a laugh from your current seat at the edge of the bed, and he looks up from the device, scoffing playfully. “Look, I barely use this thing as it is unless it’s to occasionally tweet or take pictures of Dodger. Ya can’t blame me for having no idea how Instagram works.”
You giggle softly, standing up and coming over to his side, craning your neck trying to see what he’s posting. “You’re trying to do multiple pictures? Look, you tap on this first,” you explain, pressing on the icon on the right side of the screen, “then you select all the images you want in order.”
“Ohh.” Chris nods, grinning up at you. “Thanks, baby.” You chuckle softly as you go to the walk in closet, slipping out of your robe to change into pajamas. “Mmhm. Anytime.” He fiddles around with the phone for a few more minutes before finally locking it and setting it aside with a sigh. “Alright. That’s over with,” he exhales playfully as if exhausted, and you come back out of the closet dressed in a simple sleep tank with matching shorts. “What a hard life you lead,” you tease, crawling into the bed and yawning. “You ready for bed soon, babe?”
“Oh yes. I’m fucking exhausted.” Chris peels out of his clothing and you can’t help but stare, feeling incredibly thankful that the man sleeps in the nude every night. However, you soon look over to your nightstand, suddenly realizing your phone’s been going off like crazy. Blinking confused, you pick it up and look at the messages from your friends in your group chat.
“Giiiirl! That picture Chris just posted? SEXYYYYY!”
“Omg I thought you guys were still keeping the relationship on the dl?”
“Is this your way of telling the fans? Lmaoo”
“But why did he post it with a bunch of pictures of his dog….?”
Your eyes immediately widen as you stare at the flood of messages continuing to come in, now from other friends as well. “Chris,” you slowly murmur, “what the hell did you just post…?”
“Huh?” He looks at you in confusion as he’s getting into bed beside you. “Just some pictures of Dodger from our walk today, you know the really cute ones we took by the lake. Why?”
You take a deep breath and go to Instagram- you don’t even have to go to his profile because the photos pop up first on your feed. You swipe through- cute picture of Dodger, cute picture of Dodger, another cute picture of Dodger…
A mirror selfie of you in lingerie, a photo you had taken and sent to him one time just to tease when he was at work.
“Chris!!!” you practically scream, showing him the phone. When he sees it his blue eyes widen; he jolts up and grabs his phone. “Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck!!” He goes to his Instagram frantically, tapping the screen flustered. “How do I delete this?! How do you delete a post?!” You practically tear the phone out of his hands, deleting the pictures yourself before tossing it to the other side of the bed as though it’s a bomb.
The two of you slowly look at each other, panicked, discombobulated, stressed… until both of you suddenly burst out in laughter, realizing just how ridiculous the situation is. “Holy fuck. Thank god it wasn’t a nude,” he practically cackles, and you squeal just thinking about it, giggling breathlessly. “Chris. I can’t believe this. We were doing such a good job keeping our relationship a secret,” you laugh, “and it gets leaked from you? From a goddamn Instagram post?” You clap your hands, practically gasping for breath now, your smile stretched wide across your face as your shoulders shake from laughter. “Only you, Chris, only you!”
“Instagram is confusing, okay! Besides, I was doing the fans a favor. Your body is smoking, baby girl.” He points out with a playful smirk, throwing his arms around you tightly. “Shit, both of us are probably getting flooded with comments and DMs right now. We should probably address this, shouldn’t we…?” You sigh, smiling amused as you lean into his hold, holding his arms around you. “I mean, ever since they saw us in Defending Jacob together, they were “shipping” us anyways. It can’t be too surprising, right?” You yawn softly, tilting your head up to kiss him gently. “We’ll make a more formal announcement tomorrow morning. Let’s go to sleep now though, hm?”
Chris looks somewhat thoughtful but nods, leaning over to turn off the light before lying down with you. “Goodnight, Y/N. Love you,” he murmurs, kissing your forehead, and you smile in content as you close your eyes. “Night, Chris. Love you.”
He doesn’t fall asleep just yet, though, despite the fact that you’re already drifting off beside him. Instead, he picks up his phone again, going to Instagram. This time when he makes a post, he’s very careful about selecting the photo he wants, practically triple checking that he hasn’t added anything else. He types up the caption and presses “Share” before settling down, soon falling asleep with his arms around you.
You wake up the next morning earlier than him, blinking sleepily. Picking up your phone to check it before letting yourself go back to sleep, you blink noticing a flood of messages once again.
“I just DIED at chris’ post. You are so lucky omg”
“CHRIS IS TOO SWEET!!!!! Pls stay together forever”
“I’m still crying rn omg he is so romantic”
You check your other notifications. Chris has tagged you in an Instagram post? You go to the picture and immediately widen your eyes in surprise.
It’s a selfie of you, Chris, and Dodger- Chris has his arms around you and his head on your shoulder, his blue eyes sparkling happily and his lips close to your cheek. Dodger is on your other side, his own mouth practically pulled back into a smile as his tongue hangs out. Your eyes drift to the caption. 
“Alright guys. Pretty sure almost all of you caught my little Instagram mess up, so it’s time to come clean. I don’t normally do stuff like this but I want to with this girl. This girl right here is the love of my life, AND the love of Dodger’s too. We met on the set of Defending Jacob and the rest is history. I’m so lucky to have her. She’s a little ball of love and energy, and she even manages to make this quarantine full of delight and excitement each and every day. I hope you guys can respect our relationship and show her the same love you show me.
And yes, she sends me some pretty sexy pictures. ;)” 
You giggle softly to yourself, glancing down at the sleeping man beside you. God, you love this man.
You set the phone aside and snuggle back into him, closing your eyes to fall back asleep, the soft smile remaining on your lips.

unbothered
a/n: another addition to so it goes! just little snippets of acts of service between jungkook and oc. this takes place over the first school year together. also, if you guys have any ideas for more drabbles, pls send them in! enjoy! warnings: mentions of food consumption, coffee consumption, hints at students family life.
series masterlist
i.
It's Friday, the end of the second week of school.
The past three days, Jungkook and you have been arriving at the same time. You'd wait for one another, catching up from the day before since you parted. He'd crack a joke about how he wasn't sure what tires him out more, his roommate's stupid shit or waking up early five days in a row.
Today, you're running twenty minutes behind; twenty-five minutes before school started.
Teeth brushed and face washed were your first two priorities this morning. You were able to throw your hair up into a messy updo; not having enough time for the full routine, only patting moisturizer into your skin. It would be enough to make it seem like you put some effort, right?
It's after you've parked, backpack hanging over your shoulder, tote bag hanging low from your hand, that you spot Jungkook's car and freeze.
Did you leave him waiting?
Clocked in, you make your way to drop off your belongings in your room as fast as you can. No one stops you in the hall, a small sigh of relief leaves you. Who knows how long Ms. Lee Ji-Wan, a second grade teacher who literally beams sunshine, would have kept you if she spotted you.
A moment, just a small moment you allow yourself. A moment where you're not rushing yourself, worried about being somewhere, in the comfort and stillness of your classroom. Hand rubbing your nape, head slowly rolling out to the side. Just a moment.
And it's not ruined, not when you hear three soft knocks on your door before sliding open.
Jungkook's head is poking in, his wide eyes searching the room before settling on you. His eyes quickly look you over before he allows himself in, door closing behind him.
"You didn't wait, did you?" is the first thing that comes out of your mouth, your hand moving down to rub your fingers against your collarbone.
"Not long, no," Jungkook reassures you, not staying still.
"Jungkook," you frown, reaching over to your desk for your coffee, that you realize you forgot when your fingers wrap around nothing, balling up into a loose fist.
"Here," Jungkook laughs, moving his hand from behind his back. An iced coffee.
Hands instantly clasping against your chest, big eyes and a hopeful tug of your eyebrows; your facial expression reading, "is that for me?" Jungkook laughs, holding the coffee out to you, shaking it to show you that it's real, and it's for you.
"I got here just before you, actually. I was in the mood for some expensive coffee and figured you'd like one, too," Jungkook explains, that smile never leaving his lips.
ii.
The end of a meeting is always such a relief.
The quiet, exciting buzz that comes with the meeting being called to it's end, almost like an exhale that relieves your body from the weights of the world for just that moment; weightless and carefree.
The chairs being pushed away so teachers could stand, the sound of shuffling paper and occasional crumple, quiet chatter while some people gathered together, others just making their way of the room. Talk of lunch plans, upcoming events (personal and 'professional').
That was feeling is what you look forward to at the start of every meeting.
It's the feeling you relish this moment. Tae-yeon rubs your forearm, telling you she'll see you after the day ends before rushing off to join Jae-eon, physical education teacher. You look after her, standing up, watching as the pair makes their way out of the room.
You turn back towards the center of the room, eyes scanning the room until you spot Jungkook.
Jungkook's not in the spot he deemed as his unassigned assigned seat during meetings, but at the front of the room, talking to the principal. His body language is animated; his papers on the chair closest to him, hands moving regardless of close they are to his body. You could see how his eyes widened and his tone came off as serious, passionate.
You can't help but watch. You can't help but wonder what he was so passionate about, what he was sharing with the principal.
You can't take your eyes away, not until they bow to each other and the principal is turning towards you, to make his way to the exit behind you. Quickly, you duck your head and a quiet wish leaves your lips, "have a good day, sir."
"You waited," Jungkook simply says, your head turning upwards and eyes automatically moving to his face.
"Yeah," you hum.
"You didn't have to," Jungkook reassures with a small smile, folding his small stack of papers in half and tucking it under his arm. He makes his way towards you, hand gesturing towards the door.
"Yeah, but I wanted to. We always go to lunch afterwards," you state.
"Oh," Jungkook falters behind you. He watches you make your way to the door, turning midway when you don't feel his presence.
"You wait for me," you shot back, a teasing look on your face.
"Yeah, because I haven't been sucked into a teacher's clique," Jungkook defends jokingly.
iii.
You're looking over the math worksheets from this morning, red pen in one hand, chopsticks handling japchae in other.
"This is DEAN" playlist on Spotify plays softly from your computer. You hum, in tune to the music and to the taste of the japchae that your roommate, Sana, made last night.
You don't hear the door open, your face down towards the container of noodles. Cheeks full and puffed out, you throw your head back, a quiet moan, eyes closed. God, you loved noodles.
"You okay?" Jungkook laughs, taking you by surprise.
Head lowering to look at him, your eyes are wide and don't bother chewing, just watching as Jungkook gets closer.
"I thought you had lunch plans," you struggled, slowly chewing and swallowing, repeating the process until your mouth becomes empty again.
Jungkook laughs again, reaching over to twist the cap off your bottle of juice open before handing it to you.
"Take it slow."
You wave him off, taking a sip, eyes looking him up and down.
"You didn't met up with your friend... Seokjin?" you ask curiously, hoping you got the name right.
"I did," Jungkook nods and taps his finger against your desk, "but Jin-hyung had something come up."
Your lips pout, brows furrowing, "Sorry. I know you were looking forward to it."
"It's fine, I know where he lives," Jungkook cackles, placing a small container in front of you, "but just as I promised..."
"Is this the cake he made last time?" You gasp hopefully, pulling yourself closer.
There's a glimmer in your eyes, it makes Jungkook laugh quietly, shoulders shaking and nose scrunching up as he nods.
"He gave me some extra after I mentioned that I shared it with a friend from work," Jungkook smiles, popping the lid open.
What you didn't know about Jungkook that his hyung(s) did was that Jungkook only shared food with people he really cared about.
iv.
Since the days Jungkook and you used to just magically show up at the same time to school and wait for each other so that you could enter the building together (neither you or Jungkook know that the other peeked at the time when they realized that arrive at that time, thus the new addition to their daily routines), you've both had the other's phone number.
First, texts were exchanged when one of you decided to go for a coffee run, always asking the other if they wanted something.
Then came the texts to tell the other that you were running late (you showed up ten minutes before the school day started just to find that someone turned on your computer).
Following that were the texts that came in the evening. The "what was the name of the website that you those pens?," "what was the dish you mentioned Namjoon made for dinner?," the "I have roommate cake and coffee tomorrow morning!!!"
You remember the first time Jungkook took a sick day, after the winter break, after you'd deemed yourselves friends and not just coworkers.
You're in the teacher's lounge, lips hovering over your water bottle. You're pretending to pay attention to your phone, thumb scrolling against the screen as if you're on social media, but in reality, you had your conversation with Jungkook opened. Subtly trying to type out everything you were hearing in the teacher's lounge.
"before you call me a child, I just have to say... you chose the wrong day to be absent, mr. jeon."
Jeon Jungkook: what is this? are we fourteen? are you trying to get me to wonder what the day is like without me?
You scoff to yourself, trying to bite back a smile.
Jeon Jungkook: when I woke up again this morning, it was already 10am, and the first thing that popped into my head was that it was two hours into the school day and math is almost over.
A laugh leaves your lips, the noise from the nearby teachers becoming quiet as they looked over at you.
Eventually, your texts ranged throughout the entire day. From the morning texts asking if the other wants coffee, texts swapping recipes in the late afternoon, to just asking about weekend plans and just...talking to one another.
v.
"I'll have you know, Jeon Jungkook, that my Saturdays are sacred," you gushed, waggling your finger jokingly.
Jungkook snorts, pushing the cart past you, leaving you standing there. He throws a quick glance over his shoulder at you, rolling his eyes with a smile on his face.
"No one forced you to tag along," Jungkook points out.
"You're right. But, you also know that I cannot and will not turn down a lunch invitation," you sigh dramatically.
"Ah, so when you see my face, you see a money bag?"
"Didn't you hear? The way to someone's heart is through their stomach," you sigh, hand over your chest, walking closer to where Jungkook's stopped.
Jungkook's looking at things that he can gift the students in the after school art club. You both had already gotten little gifts for your respective classes, but Jungkook had told you that he wanted to give his art kids some supplies so that they'd be encouraged to keep doing art; supplies that parents couldn't afford or in some cases, didn't want to purchase.
"I have three students who go to high school next year," Jungkook murmurs to himself, scratching the back of his neck, "but I don't want the rest of them to think I don't care about them."
"What were you planning on getting for them?" you ask gingerly, hands running over the different sketchbook covers.
"Taehyung was able to get some good quality mixed media sketch books from the art museum. They hold workshops every week and he found some extras," Jungkook turns to look at you, a hint of a soft smile, "so I was thinking a basic watercolor set, some pencils, color pencils?"
"Mmm, maybe leave the water colors for the ones going to high school? Not that you don't trust the younger ones, but water colors seems like some more responsibility," you comment.
Jungkook hums back in acknowledgement, moving to stand next to you. The hairs on the back of your neck stand at his proximity, your heart racing when you catch his scent.
"You added erasers and sharpeners?"
"Pencil set."
"Hmm," your eyes scanning down the aisle. You spot chalk hanging at the end of the aisle, hand reaching out to pat Jungkook's bicep before quickly moving down the aisle. Adjusting your bag onto your shoulder, you dramatically gesture towards the various packs of chalk.
"Not only can they make art in their sketch books, but out in the neighborhood," you try telling it to him like a salesman at a car dealership, "art that can be remade, reworked. Sidewalks, driveways, whatever!"
Jungkook can't fight off the laugh as he doubles over, his laugh echoing around him.
His laugh is contagious, it might be your favorite sound. It has you breaking character, your laugh joining his; a symphony that could bring crowds together, one that people never wanted to stop hearing.
"What? It's not good?" you defend yourself through giggles.
"Did I say something?" Jungkook chuckles, pushing the cart towards you, carefully placing several packs of chalk in.
"Did I win myself some dessert?" you turn away to peek at the other aisles.
"That already came included with the lunch offer. You, my friend, have won yourself something even better."
You realize Jungkook's movement until you hear his voice right in your ear.
"You get to pick one thing from the store and I'll buy it for you."
You shiver, stepping away from him, overwhelmed. You try to brush off the way the back your neck heats up, your heart beats a little faster, your hands get a little clammy. Just a moment to compose yourself, yet, a moment becomes too long when the hairs on the back of your neck fall back down and his scent is no longer surrounding you.
You look up with wide eyes, watching Jungkook make his way into the aisle that had "acrylic and oil points" written at the top.
"Wait!" You call out, trying to catch up to him, "you can't judge what I pick!"

Walking Wallet {ChiLi}
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A/N: yall really like lee childe asdfghjkl good job, immaculate taste. i’m surprised with my new prompt list, it seems like number 8 is pretty popular haha. I really loved writing this one, I'm so weak for chili it just,,, it’s amazing oughh. I’m not super good at feet tickles but i hope i still did okay and I hope everyone enjoys!
Summary: After a day of shopping, Childe is acting rather smug, and Zhongli decides to take advantage of his cockiness.
Word Count: 1.5k (under the cut)
Zhongli and Childe were walking through Liyue on a shopping trip, there were a few things they both needed. There was also the fact that Zhongli would likely want to buy something for himself as well, so naturally Childe tagged along.
They perused shops for a while until they came across one that sold teas from across Teyvat, and Zhongli’s interest immediately piqued.
“Can we go to that shop over there?” He asked, and Childe nodded, walking over with Zhongli.
“Welcome! We have teas from all over Teyvat, and teas of all kinds! We have herbal, green, black and more!” The shopkeeper said eagerly, gesturing to the bags of teas that decorated her shop.
“Do you have any from Inazuma?” Zhongli asked, peering across the widespread selection of tea.
“We do! We have this hojicha, and also this genmaicha, and this…”
The shopkeeper droned on, listing all of the teas they had from the Inazuma region as Zhongli payed close attention, Childe completely zoning out as he looked around, shifting his weight in a bored manner.
“I’ll take three of the sencha, please,” Zhongli said, Childe finally being brought back into reality by the sound of his partner’s deep voice. Zhongli reached into his pocket and pulled out his wallet, Childe watching him curiously from the side as the shopkeep bagged up his teas.
“Oh…” Zhongli said quietly, checking his wallet. Childe peered over and sighed, smiling softly at his partner.
“Need me to cover this one?”
“Yes please,” Zhongli said, tucking his wallet away as Childe pulled out his own, chuckling.
“This is no big deal for a Fatui member as great as me,” Childe said smugly, and Zhongli chuckled.
“So cocky,” He cooed, and Childe blushed slightly, though he knew Zhongli was right. He loved to put up a façade in public, but Zhongli knew in truth Childe was just as vulnerable as anyone else, which made it fun to tease him.
Childe paid for the tea Zhongli wanted and handed it to him, linking their arms together as they walked back down the streets of Liyue, arm in arm.
Their day continued, going to various shops, Childe making a big show of him paying for whatever Zhongli wanted, Zhongli only smiling as he did so. Finally, they arrived home with a few bags full of items, Childe carrying them for Zhongli as he set them down on the dresser of the hotel Childe was currently residing in. Childe kicked off his boots and walked in, taking a deep breath before turning to Zhongli, hands on his hips as he grinned.
“I’m basically your wallet, Zhongli! What would you do without me?” Childe said cockily, laughing as Zhongli nodded.
“Yes, you are. You know what else you are? Cocky,” Zhongli said, walking closer to Childe, who backed up slightly, noticing an odd glint in Zhongli’s cor lapis eyes. Zhongli smiled softly and Childe softened as well, allowing Zhongli to wrap his arms around Childe as he hugged him back. “And you’re awfully cocky for someone who’s so ticklish.”
As soon as he heard the last word of Zhongli’s sentence Childe immediately tried to worm out of his partner's grasp, pushing at Zhongli’s shoulders.
“Zhongli! No! Don’t you dare! I was just kidding, pl- ehe! Please no!”
Childe was already giggling like a small child from nervousness and Zhongli hadn’t even touched him yet aside from the hug he held him in.
“I’m not even doing anything, Childe,” Zhongli said, slight concern in his voice as he watched his partner’s face get red as he squirmed in his grasp. Zhongli finally used his hands to squeeze Childe’s sides, making him gasp and immediately hide his face in Zhongli’s shoulders as a quiet squeal emerged from his lips.
“I-It tickles!” 
“That’s the point,” Zhongli said with a chuckle, pinching up and down Childe’s sides as he squeaked before dissolving into frantic giggles, squirming around in Zhongli’s grasp.
 Zhongli travelled up to his ribs, rubbing his knuckles into them as Childe yelped, squeezing Zhongli tightly as his giggles increased in volume and intensity. Childe shook his head back and forth on Zhongli’s shoulder, biting his lip to try and suppress his girlish giggles.
“Gehe - Zhongli! Plehease, mmph! Not thahahat!”
Zhongli said nothing as he now dug his fingers into Childe’s ribs, dancing up and down and paying special attention to Childe’s rather sensitive upper ribs as he cackled madly. Zhongli snickered in amusement, leaning his head towards Childe’s ear as he whispered:
“Is this a good spot? Does it tickle bad here?” Zhongli teased, making Childe squeak as his knees buckled, falling against Zhongli, making him groan at the sudden weight pressed against him.
“B-Bahahad! P-Please, stohohohohop!”
Zhongli didn’t stop, however, and his hands just creeped up further until they were buried under Childe’s arms, making him shriek and arch his back, clamping his arms down as much as he could as he laughed loudly. He wriggled his fingers around, digging into the hollow of his underarm as Childe’s face burned in embarrassment as he could do nothing but cackle as Zhongli kept up his torture.
“Zhohohongli! No more, I’m behehegging you!”
“Begging me to what? Stop? That’s not happening anytime soon,” Zhongli said with a grin, scratching his fingers against Childe’s upper ribs now, lightly tickling them in a way that drove Childe up the wall. He kept his arms clamped down as much as he could, but with Zhongli’s hands already in that area it didn’t help much.
Zhongli halted his tickling momentarily to wrap his arms around Childe’s waist, picking him up as he squeaked, and throwing him on the hotel bed. Childe held his hands in front of him, trying to defend himself as he continued to giggle nervously.
“Let’s talk about this! No more ti-tickles!”
Zhongli hummed curiously, Childe inching back on the bed. Zhongli quickly grabbed his ankles just as Childe was about to make his grand escape, making him wail.
“Nooo!” He yelled, kicking his legs as Zhongli pulled his ankles into his lap as he sat on the bed, Childe’s eyes widening as he realized what Zhongli was about to do.
“Don’t you dare,” He said, his voice cracking in fear on the last word which made Zhongli chuckle.
“Don’t what?” Zhongli asked, sliding a finger up Childe’s sole as he squeaked, shaking his head furiously.
“Tickle my feet-” Childe immediately realized what he had said wrong by the look on Zhongli’s face and tried to correct himself. “I mean don’t! Don’t tickle me the - thehehehehehere! Zhohohohongli!”
Zhongli held Childe’s feet in an armlock, one hand scribbling up and down his sensitive soles as Childe tried to kick around, which wasn’t much use.
Zhongli skittered his fingers all over Childe’s socked feet, digging under his toes as Childe shrieked, kicking his legs and pounding his fist into the bed as he buried his face into the blankets, cackling into them.
Zhongli slipped his hand underneath Childe’s sock and he positively shrieked, louder than he had before as Zhongli lightly scratched at Childe’s bare heel, Childe barking out loud, screaming cackles that was only muffled by the blankets his face was buried in.
“MHmhmhm!! Pfft, gehee! Stahahahap!”
Zhongli hummed as he held Childe’s toes back, skittering his fingers across Childe’s bare sole as he yelled into the blanket.
“Noooooooo! No no no, not thehehehehere!”
Zhongli chuckled at Childe’s desperate response but didn’t let up, now softly raking his fingers down Childe’s foot as he whined through his hysterical laughter, bubbling from his throat like an endless fountain of mirth.
“Plehehehease! I caha - cahan’t! GaH! Zhongleeheehee!” Childe yelled just before his voice gave out and he was reduced to a silent fit of shaking laughter. Zhongli quickly noticed how exhausted his partner was and stopped his tickling, still holding Childe’s foot as he slowly started to regain the air in his lungs again.
“Did I go too far?” Zhongli asked, slightly concerned as he rubbed Childe’s foot gently, making him giggle again. Zhongli quickly stopped rubbing his sole and instead laid down on the bed next to Childe on his side, looking at his partner.
“Childe?”
Childe held up his pointer finger, signaling that he still needed a minute as he continued to pant heavily as a few residual giggles still emerged from his lips.
Zhongli waited patiently for Childe to recover, never taking his eyes off of him as he had his face still buried in the blankets. He finally lifted his head, letting out a loud sigh before turning to Zhongli, his face bright red from the previous tickling.
“Was it too much?” Zhongli asked, frowning, and Childe shrugged.
“Maybe a little…” He said shyly, feeling slightly torn between it. On one hand he knew Zhongli enjoyed tickling him and hearing him laugh, but on the other hand there was only so much that Childe could handle.
Zhongli reached out and cupped Childe’s face, pressing a quick kiss against his lips before pulling away, forcing a soft smile.
“You can tickle me next time, that way we’ll be even,” Zhongli said, and Childe lit up.
“Now?”
“No, I want tea right now,” Zhongli said, standing up from the bed. Childe whined, but got up as well, walking over to the shopping bags with Zhongli. Zhongli brewed them some of the new teas they retrieved and spent the rest of the night talking with each other, simply enjoying their company.

Song: Getting Over You by Lauv
Summary: Unexpected things happen all the time but meeting him was one of the best parts of it.
Pairings: Atsumu Miya x gn!reader
Word count: 7.1k
Tags, Genre: implied enemies to semi lovers! trope, slight angst, curse words, timeskip! Atsumu
A/N: pls i didn't intend to change it last minute but pls let me know if u liked it cuz im still having second thoughts <3
Tumblr media
“No- I’m sorry.” Atsumu says as you felt your heart snap and break into two distant pieces. You already limited your expectations but there was a miniature amount of hope that you held onto and that was when you should’ve lost your grip.
“It’s fine, ‘Tsumu.”
It obviously wasn’t. No matter how loud the cries of your heart were, what mattered to you in this moment was to forget it ever happened- to run away and never face another failed trial of love. Atsumu can see past your smile and he hated the way it had to end in a way he avoided. There would be a time where his feelings would be up to confrontation but when it finally happened, he’d became a coward.
He was late to realize what the outcomes could lead to. How certain was he that your paths would meet again? How was he sure that he can revert this scenario in a better way that he wanted when you were losing your hold onto him?
“I have to go but it was nice knowing you, Miya.” Your lips were tugged in a weak smile while he questions why his body lacked the power to move but what resumes to play in his mind was the way his name escaped your lips like it was a curse to say it.
Turning your heel, there was an ache in Atsumu’s head. Was it regret? His decisions tied in knots? His emotions unable to declutter themselves? Hesitantly, he reaches for you. His hand wrapped around yours as you glanced down on his soft skin you used to despise to get near to.
His eyes told you stories that were hard to decipher all at once. His stories didn’t start with a setting, it started and ended with you, not a single page where you weren’t there but it seems like the chapters you had in your own story were being torn off to erase the traces of false hope.
“Y/N, I'm so sorry.” He whispers while you felt his hand tighten to make sure that you could stay- even if it lasted for a minute because he wasn’t sure fate could spare you two another moment.
But then, you softly removed his hold on you while the cold sweat runs down his forehead.
“It’s okay, ‘Tsumu. We were just never meant for each other.”
We could’ve been.
-
“Thank you for your time.” You bid the player as both bow each other as a way of manner. You gathered your bag as the athlete turns to you with a kind smile.
“I enjoyed the interview. I’m impressed at how prepared and professional you are. How long have you been doing this?” He asks, adjusting his outfit while you toss your bag on your shoulder with your camera slung around your neck.
“There was a journalism club back in my high school and I joined in ever since I was a first year.”
“You’re in college now?”
“Yes, sir.” He chuckles at your formality while he gives a pat to your shoulder.
“That’s good to hear. Goodluck with everything- I believe that you’ve got bright things ahead of you.” Your heart fluttered at the compliment while you bid your goodbyes. You step out of the hotel feeling the satisfaction hit you like a prize. The report can finally be simplified into a few more subtle fixes and maybe by 1am, you’d be able to present it to your professor without doubting your work.
Sighing happily, you decided to reward yourself to a lovely lunch with a view you often visited due to a reminiscent feeling that bubbles in your system. After ordering, you sat outside admiring the way the sun sets and leaves a lasting beauty before the moon shows.
The stress was fading from you. You had expected that the project would’ve taken weeks for you to finish knowing that some retired athletes usually avoid questions to why they left the sport they used to love. You had called a few, a struck of confidence was enough to make you do so but they often cancel your request because they either paid attention to your young age or because they weren’t ready to be asked such personal questions about them. You were lucky to score and interview with a well-known athlete whose had his fair share of the spotlight during his early 20’s. Sadly, his retirement was due to an accident and his weak body levels couldn’t bare the adrenaline of the sport. He was kind, patient, and understanding. Ever since he agreed, your attention was on the questions you’d lay upon him seeing that this was an opportunity you can’t waste. After gathering some of his past glories, you narrowed down your interrogation on what remains important to benefit the topic of your project. You were more than proud because of the compliment he had given you and the fact that you might be able to catch a break after a hectic week.
Opening your camera and flicking through the photos to decide on which you were going to use. Suddenly, a photo meets your sight. The peak of blonde and gray hair with a uniform that you missed.
The Inarizaki Volleyball Team.
Most especially, him.
A few years has passed since you’ve seen him and his brother. Osamu’s last interaction with you was filled with nothing but sweet memories and a hug that you could never forget the warmth of, while Atsumu’s last memory with you remained bittersweet- like a sour flavor in his tongue that never left. You tried too hard to forget fragments of your time with him but because of how much work you put yourself through, you lost time to reflect on the moments that didn’t hurt.
Half of your high school life was compressed into confusing parts of your story.
But the chapter that seems to be the most influential part of it, was where you got to meet the blonde who has stomped on your heart.
It was funny to be remembered as a person who had the guts to sneeze during the great Miya setters serve.
“Achoo!”
You immediately cover your face with your handkerchief as your sneeze echoed through the gym making Atsumu’s hand lose its power because he was stunned by the sound, the ball hitting the net instead as he almost hits Aran who was wide eyed that ball went his way. The team could hear Osamu’s ‘uh-oh’ and it was enough for them to know what the setter feels after the unfortunate event.
Atsumu grits his teeth as the other team cheers knowing they got the score while his head jolts to the crowd, aggressively searching for the one who messed up his serve. Even eyeing his fans who got scared by the way he turned his head in their direction.
Meanwhile, you’ve got glares surrounding you as your friend nudges you, letting out an exhale of disbelief that you’ve got death stares.
“We’ll get the next point ‘Tsumu, don’t worry.” Osamu says landing a hand to his brothers' shoulder while Atsumu readies himself for the serve of the opposite team.
“Whatever.”
After that certain match, Atsumu was more than determined to hunt down whoever caused the flunk of his serve. Silly as it is, he’s never heard someone dare to speak during his serve. He’d always let out a hand signal for them to be quiet- let it be known that if someone spoke, he’d be fine with it but a whole sneeze? He’d never let it go, especially when it resonated in his ears.
So, imagine the look on his face when he hears the exact same sound when he was just stopping by his locker.
“Fucking dust.” You said sniffling as you closed the door to your locker, and you were face to face with a wide-eyed Miya Atsumu holding out his finger and pointing it to you, as if he was accusing you of murder.
“It’s you!” He shouts making you raise your eyebrow at him, but the raise of his voice had intimidated you.
“What?” You asked him, not finding a single clue on whatever he was pertaining to.
“You messed up my serve by sneezing.” He says in the tone of ‘as-a-matter-of-fact’ making you lick your lips, a hand to your hip as you looked at him.
“I’m not apologizing for something I can’t control.” You were completely baffled by this man. Sure, you were his classmate, but this was your first year and you barely cared to take notice of all of them, only focusing on your school group that had you busy.
“You could’ve held it for like 2 more seconds at least.” You blinked before letting out a tired exhale as you eye him up and down. The setter of the school's volleyball team, you were aware of that because of how many matches you’ve been dragged to, but he’s never come up to you before.
This was a whole other introduction.
“Miya, right?” You asked him as he steps forward, looking down on you with a sly smirk.
“I guess I’m sorry.”
Atsumu stays silent for a few seconds but returns to his angry pout as he continues to stare at you.
“What’s your name?” Atsumu asks, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
“Y/N.”
From thereon, it looked like your life’s plot had spiked up. Atsumu was- you could call it as a miscalculation. Someone so loud and had his ego constantly fed was not someone you would stick around due to your strict schedule of balancing schoolwork and papers from your club. It was like a bump in the road wherein the objects in your car would’ve been juggled around because of the impact- that's what it felt like. Thinking that two years would’ve passed by like a breeze, time slowed down with him. The constant bickering and arguments were embedded in you like a tattoo. The way his cackle would echo through your ears when he’d struck a nerve to you, the way he’d purposely call you nicknames you swore you hated, to the same jokes can be dragged on for hours, and how every fiber of your body promised you’d leave when you’ve had enough.
But promises were always broken.
You stuck around and he did too. Atsumu provided you with his trust and company whenever you needed it. It’s a pleasant experience but it surely wasn’t at its best. What comes with it were headaches and harsh words but having a person who knew you until graduation and stayed was a different reason. He was a familiar, a person who isn’t a call away when you needed it but being in their presence would give you a pinch of comfort.
Maybe the only thing you can thank Atsumu for is getting to know his twin brother.
You accidentally sent a text to Osamu about you panicking about a missing file to be passed the following day and Osamu was up and ready to help you locate it. After finding it, you decided to treat him for being a life saver and he of course, was having the time of his life for the free food- it was also his favorite restaurant at that moment. During this time, you’ve got to talk more about each other. Months pass now Osamu and you were way better friends than you and his brother.
You and Osamus’ bond were the type that was just so serene, hardly any type of judgement when you’d bring up a problem, and all secrets were kept tight.
Osamu was the shoulder you can lean on, while Atsumu’s would shove your head away when you do so.
Your friendship drifted away when Atsumu stabbed your heart with the words “No.” and “I’m sorry.” You hesitated that day, to dial Osamu’s phone the way you used to, but it never happened. Your sobs muffled your voice and if you called him, he’d never understand a word that you’d say.
The opposite is that Osamu would understand everything.
Because you and Atsumu mirrored the same amount of pain.
He’d never seen his brother so- ruined. Atsumu’s thin walls didn’t shield his shouts of sorrow while Osamu withstood every bit of the torture show his brother had. Checking him on the next day, the setter was fast asleep with bags under his eyes and a red nose, clutching onto his pillow so tightly.
Osamu knew that day that the damage has been done and not a single band aid would mend the two shattered hearts.
-
Atsumu strolls to the around looking for a restaurant along with his teammates. The sun has fully set making the streets of Japan light up with how busy and crowded they were. Bokuto and Hinata were busy pointing at stands that had their favorite slabs of meat while Sakusa trails behind them with a mask, wanting to be removed from the push of people. As the eyes of the blonde land on a certain stand with multiple notes stuck onto a board, he smiles fondly. He then sees two kids running with smiles on their lips as they held each other's hand, obviously excited to explore the night.
“Come on, don’t be a wuss.” Atsumu says as you rolled your eyes and thought hard about his hand that was held out in front of you. Atsumu grunts before taking your hand in his before you could even decide properly. You followed his lead as he walked you through the sea of people. You were nervous that he had left practice to accompany you. Observing you from afar, you looked devastated, but you continued the rest of the day with a smile like nothing happened. Seeing that you looked dull talking to Karou, he pulled you away from whatever void of sadness you surrounded yourself in.
“Atsumu shouldn’t you be at practice?” You asked sighing, still with his hand in yours as you stopped by a stand.
“I should be but whatever that Karou did is obviously hurting you, you idiot.” Your eyes widened at his statement and this reaction confirmed his suspicions as anger forms inside of him. What could that boy have done to get you this upset? Did he physically hurt you? Atsumu hated how he cared- it wasn’t his business to meddle with but the frown on your lips was something he wanted to remove from you.
“Thank you.” You muttered as he buys you the same thing he ordered. He sees how you weren’t as colorless as before. The lights of the night brought saturation to your features as his eyes adored every feature of yours.
“It’s nothing.”
“Atsumu-san?” Hinata asks, tapping the boy on the shoulder while the blonde awakens from his escape.
Atsumu looks around once more, seeing that there wasn’t a trace of you, he moves on.
Like he was supposed to do in the first place.
-
“For our new assignment, why don’t we take the vice versa of your last project. Retirement is inescapable but why not find the reason they’d got into the sport. What makes it so exhilarating and unforgettable? That will be our topic this week. I’m giving you a week for interviews, photos, and articles. Video format is more suited for this task. Is that clear?” You all nodded as you wrote down the list of possible athletes to meet, jotting down an outline of some key points to remember.
“A tip for you all: look for the younger generations. It doesn’t matter to me what status the athlete stands in right now, it could be a friend or even a child. What I’m looking for the depths of the details in your research.” The professor stands making all of you bid him goodbye as he walks out of the room. You gathered your notebooks, sighing that you won’t have the time to properly rest- an exam was near right at the submission of your new task. You realized that you needed to sort out the things you were required to do before everything would pile up and get tangled in the short amount of time.
Who should I interview? God, everyone is so busy at this season. You thought. It’s true- you realized that matches were always lined up by this month. You also had classes to attend to and your mind could collapse at any given moment. You were more than worried about organizing your time properly but the feeling that you’d have several sleepless nights haunts you. You wished he could have extended the submission- though it didn’t get any better since after exams you tended to be drained from studying all night.
Going back to your apartment, you decided to put sticky notes all over your wall to help you sort out your priorities. Tomorrow would be Saturday meaning that you’ve done all the works to be passed on Monday and that you had zero meetings or classes. Saturday and Sunday would be divided to work parts, by Monday you should be up and running to work again.
You couldn’t let go of this group. It had given you countless of opportunities- even an offering to be an editor at a well-known magazine agency. You were in queue for the letter, so you decided to continue with the tasks of the group. You were thankful that you got used to the craziness of it all. The ability to multitask, to put the phone down once in a while, managing your time, those were just one of the benefits of getting used to it. The things you hated was that you barely had time for yourself. To lounge and just do nothing never met with what you were doing. You envied how some people from your group would plan some hang outs during a busy week and you always questioned how they managed to do it all without panicking.
You yawned as you felt your stomach growl at the scent of the delicious street food. Seeing that you fell short on money because the amount that was in your wallet was enough for your way home, it meant you’d have to wait to eat dinner until you came home. Letting out a groan you decided to walk your way even if you get shoved. God, you were starving and exhausted. The emotions were starting to fill you the more you moved. It didn’t help that everyone was so loud. You could hear the sound of the cackles from the drunken men in the corner, the cries of the baby that brought irritation to your eardrums and even the off-key singing of a (possibly) drunk girl at karaoke. You just wanted to cover your ears and crawl back to your bed not caring if you’d only be able to get 2 or 3 hours of sleep.
As you walked, you felt a boiling pile of liquid drip to your stomach making you let out a yelp as your clothes were drenched in the coffee stain that you despised. The liquid got to your skin making you wince at just how it impacted on your skin. You felt your eyes water as the woman tried to pat away the drink but instead made it worse because you wanted the fabric to be away from you as possible- which was the opposite of what she was doing.
“Oh my god- I'm so sorry.” She kept saying while patting your abdomen while you tried to wave her off, but she kept going making the tears flow from your eyes as you chose to walk away, covering your face at how humiliated you were. You sobbed in your hands as you bumped into someone before removing them from your face to find a bench to sit on but seeing that people were already turning their heads to look at you, you’ve had enough already.
Finally finding your bus stop, you sat down burying your face in the palm of your hands sobbing as your mind replays how you’ve made a fool out of yourself for the last time. Everything was going terribly and you didn’t know how to control it without losing your cool. Sure, you’ve managed to escape the people but the feeling is still badly glued to you.
“Is everything okay?”
Someone asks but the voice became a blur to you because you were so focused on your sobs and the unstable breathing.
“Go away.” You whispered but there was a weight added to your left side as you kept your face hidden behind your hands.
“I shouldn’t have asked.” The man says looking down before standing up to leave the bench, making you intake in a sharp exhale, relieved he left.
“Why does everything have to be so fucking difficult? How am I gonna interview a volleyball player at this state?” You rambled on thinking that guy has exited your business and was free from companion.
“I mean- we’re not close- but I’m a volleyball player?”
You wiped your eyes as your heart started to run a mile now that you’ve familiarized yourself with his voice.
Lifting your head, there in front of you was the one thing that your heart had wished to see.
“Atsumu?”
His eyes widen as his chest expands, his heart growing ten times bigger than it was while it beats like a drum on heavy metal song.
“Y/N- I didn’t know- wow.” Breathless, speechless, weak- those were the words that defined your emotions. You wanted to pass out- to act like you just mistaken him for a person but he was real and you had a hard time believing it.
“Atsumu?" God, he missed it. The way his name would fall of those taunting lips of yours. The tone in your voice leading him back to the memories that he couldn’t push away.
You had to believe it. There was no other way that your starvation can make you this delusional. You called his name like you were unsure that he was ever real- like a character your brain had developed to cope with your sorrows. You dared to touch him, maybe if you did it would be a wisp of air but you were scared that if you reached out to him, you could feel his skin and remember how you wanted it to be within your grasp all the time.
Perhaps it’s a dream but this time you’d never want to wake up if this was the only way you can be together.
“Y/N..I- how are you?” How could he manage to act so civil? Your presence shocked him like electricity in his veins, pumping his heart at an unusual speed. His voice was unsteady and low, experiencing the same thoughts like you.
It’s like he was dragged back to your last encounter. Seeing your eyes filled with so much agony and how you looked so torn from his rejection, it’s the same look that you had now. It’s like his eyes were playing a risky game with him but he couldn’t complain since he’s been wanting to see you ever since you let go.
“Well, I’m burned-out that’s for sure.” You said with a light chuckle as he sits back down, wondering if it’d be alright to be close to you.
“What’s this interview about?” He asks, fiddling with the strings of his jacket while you tore your eyes away from him because you knew the admiration for him would erupt anytime soon.
“What got athletes into the sport in the first place.” Atsumu places his finger under his chin, thinking deeply about what offer he just made.
It’d mean that he could be in the same room with you for more than the hours he spent crying to himself but why waste the chance? You needed it- heck you wouldn’t be this distraught if you weren’t so affected by it. There was a never-ending list of things to do but meeting with Atsumu wasn’t even in your list of expectations because you were over with hoping into something that takes a miracle.
But he is the miracle.
“Atsumu..I don’t want you to see me like this.” You said, looking down on your hands that were on your lap, letting your hair fall in front of you to avoid his concerned gaze.
“What do you mean?”
“I haven’t seen you in years, this is not what I planned to look like when I first see you.” Atsumu feels his heart frown at how low you spoke of yourself, but he understood. If you saw him in the state that you were in right now, he too would feel like he could’ve done or look better, even at least handle the situation without crumbling apart.
He knew you were in a troubled place of your mind but he just wonders where you could talk about why everything fell apart.
He missed the way it was casual to talk to you. Maybe an insult as a greeting, or a flick to the arm but he never expected to talk to you with his heart dropping in your hands. He just couldn’t forget the way you’d let him go that day during graduation, it’s almost like the sensation was still lingering around his palm even if he held a ball.
He just wished he said yes, only then, you’d be meant for each other.
“Do you mean it?” You asked sighing, not baring the weight of his silence. The pace of his heart quickens as he starts to worry if this was the confrontation that he held back all these years.
“The interview.” He was more than glad to do it. He was thankful that you weren’t talking about the bad memories or the circle of tension you two were in.
He looks at you while another strike was given to his heart seeing you this way. He’d do everything to bring back the color in your features.
“Of course.”
You smiled at his words as you both stand up but you felt conscious about the stain that was still stuck to your shirt making you desperately try to hide it by pulling your bag to the messed up section. Atsumu didn’t know that the person he had followed was the same person that got coffee dipped down on them. He didn’t recognize you at first because you had your hands covering your cries. He was worried for you when you ran off but when he knew it was you, he couldn’t believe if it was luck or a granted wish.
“Just wear this.” He says, handing you placing his jacket on your shoulders as your heart flutters at how he looked at you, completely filled with sincerity and the way his hand stayed on your shoulder.
“What the fuck do you want?” He asks you with a knife-like stare, purposely bumping harshly into you.
“Wow Miya, I was just walking.” You said returning the same fuel that he had.
“Then get out of my way then.”
“Thank you.” You said smiling lightly. He catches a glimpse of your smile and he feels his world light up at the sight of it.
I missed you.
“So where to?” He asks as you walk beside him just like old times. His height still intimidating you but it was still difficult to believe that this was the same Atsumu you had fallen for in high school.
“My apartment. We missed the bus so I hope it’s okay for you to wait.”
“I can always drive us there.” You’ve never whipped your head faster than this moment. You always trusted Osamu when he said that Atsumu couldn’t be a better driver than his own brother because Atsumu liked to rev up the engine like one of those scenes in a movie.
With the thought in your mind, you laughed.
Atsumu stops walking as he lets himself dwell at the sound of it.
Then there was a smile that he couldn’t contain.
“Sorry for laughing, ‘Tsumu. Never pictured you to have a car earlier than ‘Samu that’s all.” You explained as he chuckles, continuing to be beside you, a place that he finds himself to be the happiest.
“Yeah yeah I get it- I’m a little careless but not all the time y’know?” He says while he leads the way. The breeze felt comfortable now, it had a tweak of coldness but maybe it was just the atmosphere of you two.
When you walked to his car and told him your address, there was another silence but you tried to tell yourself that this was just Atsumu. Nothing to be worried about because you’ve known him for too long to act like all distant.
This is Atsumu- that's every reason that there is to feel nervous around him.
“How long have you been living there?” He asks while you started to feel just how badly you wanted to give in to sleepiness. You shifted once in a while to control yourself from falling asleep in his damn car. Every urge to just lay quiet for a while but you knew this would lead to a deep slumber.
“Ever since graduation.” You answered, annoyed that his jacket was inviting you to lay there and sleep away your stress though you were scared that once you wake up- Atsumu would be gone again.
“And you didn’t call to tell me about it?” He jokes but the chuckle that he expected never came because he knew just how awkward it’d be if you actually called just for that sole reason. Atsumu bites his lip at his failed attempt to drag the conversation on.
Then you giggled.
“I wanted to but I wouldn’t wanna bother the famous MSBY player.” You said smiling at him, proud that he continued on. You knew from Osamu of course, a single update when he had mentioned how well his restaurant had become, you also saw them in a poster once, even recognizing a few of his past opponents.
“Well, it would be a shame.”
There you are.
You finally arrived at your apartment and again you felt the slice of satisfaction as you removed your shoes and placed them on the table. You were partly thankful that your apartment was clean since you never have the time to spend a whole day in it only coming home late at night. Atsumu looks around as you prepare him a drink and a few snacks-it'd be rude not to.
Atsumu sees the photos where you won several awards for your loyalty and hardwork at your club. He sees how time passes and you grew into a version of you that he finds even more flawless then before. Your equipment and how everything was organized on your desk, he knew how much things changed because he used to see you doubt yourself every time you’d finish a paper but now you won awards because of them.
“Atsumu, is it alright if I shower real fast?” You asked while he raises a brow at you confused that you had to ask for his permission.
“Of course, Y/N- you didn’t have to ask.” He said chuckling while he sits on the couch, letting his eyes wonder around.
“I promise I’ll be back.”
“Please don’t rush yourself. Take yer time. “ He says while you smile at him before dashing to your room to gather new clothes, feeling like you’ve won a lottery with how happy you were to remove the coffee drenched top, tossing it to your laundry bin while you step into the shower enjoying the way the water decorated your skin, cleansing it from all the worries. While Atsumu scrolls on his phone to ease himself from the anxiousness. His finger would casually glide over Osamu’s phone number, to ask him what to do.
After a few minutes, you stepped out of the shower like a whole new person. You saw the way Atsumu’s eyes lit up when you walked in but you pushed the thought away. He pats the seat next to him while you grabbed your notebook and pen, ready to scribble down the questions.
“Are there any uncomfortable questions you’d want to avoid?” You asked him while he shakes his head while you took note of the possible questions.
“Is it okay for the interview to be filmed?” He nodded while you leaned onto the pillow, sighing happily at how you’ve managed to calm down from the pile of embarrassment earlier.
“Thank you for doing this, ‘Tsumu- really you don’t know how much I appreciate you for this.” You said leaning your cheek on the side of the couch as Atsumu copies your actions staring at you lovingly.
“You’re welcome, Y/N.” He says smiling while you returned to write a list of questions for him. With every time you look down on your notebook, Atsumu’s eyes never left you while his mind recalls every moment where he msised the opportunity to tell you just how beautiful you were.
Soon, you’ve fallen asleep while he lets the feeling sink in.
I’ve never wanted to hold you more than I do now.
He sighs before placing the blanket on your body while he kneels down and tucks a piece of hair behind your ear, his finger tracing your cheek.
“You’ll never know how much I missed you.” He whispers while you shifted in your sleep meeting his face. Before he stands up, he feels you reach for him while he’s left surprise at your touch.
“Stay please.” You whispered while he smiles weakly, placing a kiss on your forehead.
“I always will.”
-
The morning comes and you felt the blush creep on your cheeks remembering how easily you felt asleep. You wondered if Atsumu stayed, if he left- you couldn’t really blame him. So yawning and stretching when you woke up, you certainly didn’t expect to see Atsumu cooking you some breakfast. You couldn’t even move your legs, every part of you has gone stiff just admiring the way he moves.
“Hey, good morning.” He greets with a wave, a spatula in his hand, a bright smile tugged on his lips.
“Atsumu- oh god I’m so sorry.” You said as you went to him. You caught a whiff of what he was cooking and you swore you could’ve drooled knowing you didn’t even got the chance to eat dinner. Atsumu knew that of course so he called Osamu up in the morning to serve you the best breakfast he could ever make. He was initially supposed to make you dinner but you fell asleep before he could do it so this was his rebound.
“Idiot, it’s fine. Just sit down on the table and I’ll prepare the food.”
“Atsumu-“
“Just go, Y/N. I promise it’s okay- you deserve to rest before you work again.” You couldn’t even think properly with his words. It was so minimum but it was something you’d forget to do- rest. Hearing him remind you that sets a new feeling in your system. You did obey him though, you sat on the table as he even handed you coffee for him and you, placing the breakfast on the table. God, he was everything. You thought that after a few years, you two would completely drift apart but it seems like you were wrong for the hundredth time.
“Please don’t even think about ways to thank me, it’s nothing to me. “ He says taking the seat next to you while you place the food on his plate. You couldn’t even utter a word at how grateful you were for him and he’d be happy to get used to seeing you first thing in the morning.
“Atsumu, after breakfast can we have a run down of the questions first?” You asked him, growing more comfortable.
“Yeah sure.”
-
You sat on the couch, placing your camera on the table aligning it to the best possible angle as Atsumu sits down in front of you. You had your notebook on your lap as he praises how you looked so professional even if it was just a practice.
“Ready?” You asked while he nods with a smile as you pressed the camera to shoot so you could keep your composure, even if you struggled to.
“What does the sport mean to you?” You asked him, your eyes glimmering with the suns rays hitting it perfectly, while the words were removed from Atsumus mind. Seeing his hesitation, you decided to reassure him.
“It’s fine if you can’t answer straight away. I can always change the question if you like.” You commented, smiling at him to make sure he doesn’t feel rushed to answer. He nods, still not finding the exact same words to describe what he wanted to say.
“I’ll change the question for now.” You said while he let’s out a sigh before listening to you once again.
“What was the biggest struggle in your career?” He sends you a worried stare but his mind nearly bursts at his answer.
“Getting over you.”
You dropped your pen on the couch as Atsumu continued to speak since this was the answer his heart was sure of responding to.
“I tried to forget- I did. For every year that passes, the more fucking harder it gets to act like I didn’t love you back when you walked away.”
“Atsumu-“
“I know I said no- I was too late to realize how stupid I was to be scared of falling for you. I couldn’t let myself be the man who could love you when all this time I tried to hate you because I knew I would hurt you- and I already did.”
We get hurt a lot but it doesn’t mean I won’t come back to you.
Love grew and died during your second year at Inarizaki.
Before Atsumu, you found Karou. A boy who was a new recruit to your group whose helped you multiple times and has shared a conversation with you about your similar likes. There was this strange infatuation with him that even Osamu had to question how deep was the bite of love on you. You’ve fallen, of course. Occasionally leaving notes on his desk to just let him know how he made your day but it never worked. He would only paste the note on another persons desk like it was nothing. Not even getting the reaction you wanted, it felt too normal when it shouldn’t be. Realizing how this was just rejection in the shadows, you gave up. Obviously heart broken at the mere thought of how your chances were blown away. When Atsumu saw how gloomy you were that day, he had to show you how much you didn’t need Karou and there grew a different bond between the both of you.
And with a bond like that, you became attached to him.
It was all becoming clearer and clearer as you realized that you fell for the wrong person first.
“You’re too stupid to fall for a douche like him. “ He says kicking the rock that was in front of him.
“You’re lucky with that admirer of yours, Miya. I’ve never seen someone stick around you for so long.” You teased. It’s true the half of the twin hearthrob has gotten himself a sincere admire. It wasn’t one of his crazy fans- this was a person who genuinely cared for him and the words on every note he received would make the poor boy blush uncontrollably and you envied how he’s yet to realize that he too was falling for this unknown person.
While you two were oblivious to the slip up of the universe, it took a toll on you.
Because the notes you’d leave on Karous desk, always ended up on Atsumu’s instead.
“I wanna meet them so bad. Just to see if they actually care and it’s not a prank. They haven’t given me a note and it’s been what a month? I doubt it was ever real.”
“With the amount of effort they gave, I’m sure it was real.”
It’s real for me even if it shouldn’t be.
There wasn’t any other way then to accept the feelings that stayed on your skin. The moments where you thought that being around Atsumu would bring you stressful banters and more, it turned into butterflies that surrounded your room. You chose to deny it at first but remembering that graduation and good-byes were near, you had to tell him at some point.
And when you did, you poured your heart out and not even a single drop was caught.
“Last words before I forget your dumbass?” He taunts while you felt your sweat drip down the side of your forehead as you couldn’t control it anymore. You wondered if there was a simple word to describe just how much you adored him without turning it into a whole speech. This was it- you had to do it or else you’d end up being stuck on the feeling of loving him.
“I..like you Atsumu and I can’t say good-bye without telling you.”
Then there was the awful silence that he gave making you clutch onto your shirt, preparing you for the worst.
But by the way he looked so terrified and frozen, you knew.
“Atsumu?”
“No- I’m sorry.”
“And I don’t know what I’d do if I let you leave again.” He whispers as he leans closer to you, taking your hands in his while your ability to speak has been taken away by how gentle he was as his thumb caresses your hand and a look that looked so fragile.
He takes his hand and cups your cheek, pulling you close to him as his vulnerability increases.
“Do you feel the same too?” He was being so careful because a wrong choice of a word could make it all fall apart again and you could feel how tense he was but he holds you like a gem- something so beautiful that it’d cost him his life if he ever dropped you.
Your hand lands on the same hand that was on your cheek while Atsumu’s eyes widen remembering how you neglected to hold his hand before.
But it stayed.
Closing your eyes and melting in his touch, you spoke.
“I never stopped loving you, Atsumu.”
He lets his forehead rest on yours, a smile on his lips, who was soon to be on yours.
“Then be mine all over again.”

Much to everyone’s dismay, Jungkook’s spring break in Vegas with the boys is cut three days short when Jimin’s dog sitter suddenly cancels, citing a case of homesickness as enough cause to abruptly go home. When you first hear news of this, you’re preparing yourself for the return of a mopey, useless Jungkook, too drained from four glorious days in Las Vegas to carry on. What you’re not expecting is the mysterious text he sends you before boarding a five hour flight with no service (he was cheap).
kook still on vegas lockdown. Have that pussy ready when i get home
“The fuck does that mean?” Chaeyoung is the first to see the message, your screen lighting up on the kitchen counter beside you as you scrub through a mountainous pile of dishes. You try to play it off, after all, Chaeyoung had seen parts of you you hadn’t even seen, but there was no worse embarrassment than having your homegirls see your clown of a boyfriend’s ridiculousness. ��He’s so romantic,” she swoons, and you shoo her away from the offending device as you wipe your hands down on your t-shirt. 
you for what?? One 20 second round 🤥
Chaeyoung suddenly cackles from over your shoulder, and you swear your soul leaves your body. 
You don’t get a response until exactly five hours and thirteen minutes later, your phone vibrating like crazy on the edge of your bathtub, and if you hadn’t given it a hearty kick and sent it flying across the room, front screen shattering into the most intricate spider web of glass shards, it would have fallen into the water. The terror. 
kook pls pick me up 
kook also haha. U r soooo funny 😑
You’re halfway to the airport, idly sitting in traffic and giving the public a free, Beyonce-like experience of The Script’s Breakeven, when you realize you’re not wearing any pants. You’re not exactly sure which part of Jungkook’s long t-shirt had tricked you into believing you were decently dressed, but you’re not too mad. After all, Jungkook’s trip with the boys had been a last minute decision that did not take into consideration your never-ending thirst for your boyfriend, so a little payback never hurt anybody. 
He’s sitting on top of his suitcase outside the airport when you get there, cute Birkenstock-clad feet swinging back and forth as he waits for you like the good boy he is. He crouches down by the passenger window, “Uh, yeah, is this the Uber?” 
You can’t even bother hiding the smile that consumes your face, and it only grows tenfold when he finally gets in and immediately leans over the center console to kiss you. “Look who’s finally back from their little bachelor party,” you murmur, eyes lidded dangerously low when he breaks away. 
“Oh, the party where I accidentally sleep away my life-savings to a stripper named Aries and then have to go home and beg for my wife’s forgiveness?” He responds immediately, devious pink tongue swiping out to lick at your bottom lip. 
You snort. “Joke’s on you, because our hot pool boy kept me company and treated me better in four days than my husband had in six years,” you mumble, finger looping into the silver chain around his neck to pull him close again. 
“Not our hot pool boy,” he whines, smile pressed adorably to your lips. 
You almost retort, but a ten-second horn blast from the car behind you has the two of you jumping three feet from each other, like teenagers caught making out in the school parking lot. 
-
Just as you’d predicted via text, Jungkook barely has the energy to walk up the steps to your apartment, much less fuck you like he’d promised. “Fuck, stop being healthy and let us take the elevator,” he grunts, pushing his suitcase onto the final platform leading to your floor.
“Nope,” you concede. “The stairs give me a good view of your ass going up.”
He shoots you a scandalized look, like you’re an old man who’d just catcalled him on the street. “Pretty sure that’s my line.”
It’s when you’re unlocking the front door, sending out a little prayer to the heavens (Chaeyoung) for the blessing of an empty apartment, that he notices your lack of proper clothing. “Oh, hell no,” he groans, immediately crowding you against the armchair nearest the door. 
You laugh, struggling to turn to face him as he nuzzles his face into your neck. “What seems to be the problem?”
He sighs against the shell of your ear, and you’d be a liar to say it didn’t send a gush of wetness to your core. Jesus, just a single puff of air from Jungkook was enough to turn your coochie into a Fruit Gusher. “Not your sexy legs again,” he whines, and you giggle when he presses those pouty lips to yours. 
“Thought I was supposed to have this pussy ready for you,” you tease, tilting your head up until your noses brush against each other. Jungkook lets a soft huff of a sigh go, eyes fluttering shut at your close proximity. 
There’s a hand that creeps along the back of your thigh, fingers pressing into the soft skin until he finally guides it upwards, hitched over his hip. The new position has your body curving backwards, tilted over the edge of the couch as he continues crowding closer and closer to you. “Baby,” he whines, and the tone and sudden usage of your favorite nickname wipes the teasing smile off your face. “I missed you so much,” he purrs, in that tone that says he knows he has you under his complete control, all he has to do is take care of you. 
Still, you try to put up some sort of a fight. “I’m sure your eyes were kept entertained in Vegas,” you retort weakly, not even bothering to hide the jealousy in your tone. 
Jungkook laughs, before puckering his lips and smothering you. Instantly, you throw your arms around his broad shoulders to pull him closer. His hair tickles your face from how long it’s gotten, and when you brush it back, collecting it into a makeshift baby ponytail, you can’t even enjoy the sight because Jungkook is pressing his rock hard member against your inner thigh. 
“You think I’m a cheater?” He muses when he finally pulls away, a little entranced by the saliva that coats your lips in a thin sheen. “Couldn’t be even if I wanted to.” Before you can ask what that even means, he’s hauling you into his arms, your legs wrapping around his tiny waist, his cock now cradled between your thighs, right where you want him most. You moan immediately, head lolling backwards at the touch you’d craved for days. “Feel that? No one gets my dick hard like you do, baby.”
Even though his adrenaline is on one hundred, and he’s clearly blinded by his lust, Jungkook still sets you down on the bed like you’re made of glass. Any comments you may have made are smothered by his lips on yours, fingers gripping your waist like it’s the first time he’s ever touched you. When he pulls away, his eyes are dark and his breath is a little heavy where it fans against the lower half of your face. 
“So pretty,” he huffs, rolling his hips against yours. You groan, eyes rolling back as the familiar feeling of your boyfriend between your legs consumes you. Jungkook presses his mouth against the skin of your neck, where the faintest sheen of sweat had begun to form the moment you unlocked the front door. 
If you thought you were loud, the sounds leaving Jungkook’s throat are teetering on the edge between a pornstar and a yodelling-enthusiast. You can’t help the smirk crossing your features. “Are you really gonna come?”
Jungkook was many things, and drama queen was definitely very high on that list. He gives you the most scandalized expression, stopping the movement of his hips to scoff. “As if,” he snorts, but you know that little eyebrow furrow a little too well. 
You snort, reaching down to his sides as you try to discreetly urge him to start up again. “Baby, your jaw is twitching,” you point out, a soft whine leaving your lips when he shifts your leg up. It’s this same sound that has him finally moving again. 
“Yeah, well,” he groans, one hand deathly gripping into your hip now, pressing you down onto the bed so hard you feel the comforter will swallow you up any minute now. “I just got my wisdom teeth removed, ‘member?”
Your retort is briefly cut off by the cry you let out when he ducks down to suck a mark beneath your jaw. “M-Months ago,” you weakly respond, 
Jungkook ignores you in favor of using his Hulk strength to fold you in half, groans borderline animalistic as he grinds his cock into your soaked panties. His jaw is tight like you’d said, but you can tell he’s holding himself back. He hated coming before you, seldom doing it unless it was one of those rare days where he wanted you to pamper him. 
“Fuck,” he grunts, swallowing your pitiful whines before pushing his tongue down your throat. There was something sexy about your boyfriend being so turned on that his saliva production was off the charts. “You’re gonna ask me to do that thing again, aren’t you?” He predicts. 
All you can do is nod, and Jungkook smirks. “Ah,” he says, much like a doctor would, and you comply, mouth wide. You see the muscles beneath his jaw twitch, and a moment later he’s leaning over you with puckered lips, a glob of saliva begging to drip down. 
The moan that catches in your throat has him smiling, tongue peeking out to cut the bridge of saliva that connected the two of you, and you want to tell him you love him, but then he’s raising his eyebrows at you, motioning for you to swallow, so you do. “Absolutely filthy,” he grins, and then returns to thrusting against you. 
As much as you liked to tease him, he’s good at fulfilling the sexual aspects of his boyfriend role, and he guides you to your orgasm moments later. Of course, he does so by toying with your tits just the way you like, lips pressed firmly to yours as you become a boneless heap beneath him. “That’s it, pretty baby,” he murmurs, pressing one final kiss to your lips before he’s shifting back onto his haunches, tugging you closer until the backs of your knees are cradled carefully in his elbows. 
Despite your transcended state, you love watching Jungkook get himself off, and your eyes flutter as you watch him thrust sloppily against your soiled panties. They’re soaked by your own arousal, and had Jungkook’s sweats not been as dark as they were, you’re almost certain you’d see how they stained. 
He comes a moment later, body twitching and fingers tightening against your skin. His chest heaves, head lolling back as he tries to regain his senses. Silence envelopes the room. 
“Do you wanna talk about it?” You blurt, no longer able to pretend like something isn’t completely wrong. 
Jungkook rolls his neck out, a satisfying crack resounding, as he angles to look at you again. His tongue is poking against his cheek in that cocky way it does sometimes, and he furrows his brows at you. “What?”
You shuffle up onto your elbows, motioning towards him with the vaguest wave possible. He blinks. You groan. 
“What did you do?” You question, and immediately his eyes go wide and shiny in that way they do when you’re reprimanding him and he doesn’t see the wrong in his ways. 
Cute little lips forming a pout he remains as confused. “Nothing? We really just went to fuck around and get drunk—“
“Kook.”
“You don’t actually think I cheated, I thought we were just joking? Unless…” he trails off, doe eyes suddenly filled with fear. “You weren’t?”
“Jungkook—“
He intercepts you, “did you do something while I was gone? Who was he? Or she? Wow,” he huffs to himself in disbelief. “I don’t even know you well enough to know if you’re into more than just men.” The frown on his face is getting deeper with each word he utters and you almost can’t believe how dumb he could be. “No wonder… am I a terrible boyfriend?” He asks, voice louder and more concerned than it’s been all night. 
“What the fuck are you even talking about?” You say, and Jungkook looks just as lost by your response as you are with his. “Because I’m talking about whatever this is,” you explain, reaching up to drag a hand through his dual-colored locks. 
They’d been carefully tucked under his bucket hat when you’d picked him up, a tuft of blonde peeking out from in front of his ear. It wasn’t until he’d tipped you over the side of the couch that it had tumbled off. Of course, at the time, there had been other pressing matters at hand than wondering why your Hannah Montana blonde boyfriend had returned as Todoroki, which is why you’d waited until now to revisit the topic. 
Jungkook doesn’t move for a solid ten seconds. Then, as if processing the emotional episode he’d just given you, he gives you a sheepish smile. It’s one of those smiles where his lips press together thinly and cutely and the apples of his cheeks seem like the squishiest things in the world. “Oh…” he says, voice soft and nothing like the man that spit in your mouth five minutes ago. “You like it?”

SunaOsa fanfic recs: valentines edition~~
SunaOsa is one of my all time favorite ships and this past month, there has been/was an exchange going on between writers (here is the link) and artists (separately) and because I don’t have a life (or maybe it’s just that SunaOsa is my life LOL), I’m here to tell you some of my favorite fics from the pile :D However, as much as I love a ship, sometimes fluff is too asajndajnd so mind you there will probably be a lot of good fics missing just cause I couldn’t get myself to read more fluff (or angst) LOL (IM SORRY but sometimes I also just can’t motivate myself to read a fic no matter how good it looks OOPS).
As always, please check warning and tags before reading any of these fics, and take care of yourselves!!!!
In no particular order (jk the order is last updated haha) tho my favorites will have *** next to them :)
***glass stained black by unrequitedangst (E) 31k // Mafia AU’s are some of my favorite kinds of fics, and this one did not disappoint! The character development of Osamu is really legit and despite being mafia, it’s not that heavy or angst of a fic (but you should still definitely read tags and warnings first). It’s an Osamu heavy fic, and if you’re into reading him being stupid, go right ahead LOL.
redux by catalysis (T) 2.3k // ngl I hate break-up fics with a passion truely (when you can’t handle fluff or angst what to do) but I liked the concept for this one hehe (so I made myself suffer LOL). It was short, but cute !!! and the unspoken words really hit me in the FEELS (so what I’m dramatic fight me LOL).
Impropriety by DeathBelle (T) 5.7k // royalty~ I love the banter between them in this fic and we DO stan respectful Osamu yes we do <33333 The relationships between not only SunaOsa but SunaAtsu (because even though it isn’t really SunaAtsu best friend agenda, I can delude myself into think it is okay :/) are done so well and so nice he’s mean Osamu is best Osamu.
***what are you waiting for? by Slumber (T) 3.7k // MIGHT BE MY FAV FIC FROM THIS EXCHANGE!!! It made me cackle and I love how they learn new things about each other!!!! Like the development is so good and Suna is really doing the MOST!! Also, I love recursive endings AHHHHHH!
agape by sketchedsmiles (T) 11.7k // soulmates, then they were SOULMATES! (ik that’s not how it goes but pls just humor me LOL) This fic really depicted Osamu’s insecurities/internal turmoil/overthinking really well and the realization he has vs Suna’s AHJAFKASFJ. I love confident Suna.
fireside by tartaglia (starkartifices) (T) 3.6k // we do love the subtle flirt flirt don’t we hehe ;) It’s short, it’s fluff, and it’s funny - what more could you ask for? Also whats a vigilante fic if there isn’t at least one pun about being a vigilante LOL.
Over and Over Again by tookumade (G) 6.4k // I would like to order one reassuring, reliable Miya Osamu for myself please and thank you :((( The way the relationship is so GOOD like both Suna and Osamu pick each other up and they know the other has their back ajfhkajdfl. I would purchase all the onigiri with the deal Suna was proposing ;) Onigirintarou.
from here to eternity by TheGlovedArtist (T) 6.6k // I for one am a big fan of mythology and stuff (heroes of olympus but like IDR any of the plot LOL) so of course I read this fic. The snark appearances of Sakusa and Komori gave me LIFE and the difference in descriptions from Astumu and Kita cracked me up. This is another respectful Osamu fic (yes I love these) and in this one it was a ‘I save you as much as you save me’ type beat LOL. Gotta love rings.
***Subtle Inarizaki Dating by sifuhotman (T) 15.2k // THIS ONE. Even if you don’t read the whole thing, I beg of you, please, I AM ON MY KNEES, read the SID for Astumu. It is worth the loss of all your brain calls I guarantee it. It made me giggle so freakin much. Suna might be an A-Hole but he’s OUR A-Hole <3
Forever Begins with 8 Seconds by subtlehues (T) 3.9k // FLUFF hehe, I love their dynamic in this one it’s very good and cute and everything great! Also, I am all for the head cannon that Suna cannot cook, yes pls. Also SUPERPOWERS whooooooooh.
***try again, and again, and again by rosegoldwriting (T) 2.6k // SOULMATES! If you ever wanted a specific soulmate AU! for SunaOsa look no further, it probably comes out LOL. I love this concept of them just being like ‘WTF’ everyday, it gives me life. Also, count how many soulmate AU’s you recognized because I just thought about it and I think it’d be fun LOL. (I went back and I think 11 but I’m not sure LOL)
let us burn by SilverMoonT (G) 13.5k // I am always up for a nice vampire Osamu and witch Suna (which believe it or not, is my second one because I read the other one by this writer LOL) This one is more Suna POV and it really goes into his fears and desires, and I like the way Osamu pushes him to live more freely.
***reasons to microwave an elixir by spiritscript (T) 8.2k // THIS ONE. UGH I love, and it’s funny and cute and it EVEN HAS CRIME (kinda not really but yes)! I love the quiet moments they have and the PET AHHHHHHH! We love medic Osamu :DDDDD But also the betrayal and the sparring (and the irony at the end LOL) AJSKJNFK.
we fall between by stringendos (T) 14.7k // honestly the entire time I was just screaming at my computer, begging for them to hurry up and realize, but alas this is a ~slow burn~ for a reason and the tag ‘exes who act like theyre married’ really is the reason I read it and I do not regret LOL. Also bless Matsuda and stan her.
All the Time in the World by minie_ai (M) 8.8k // we love immortality! Denial! And Suna mentally filing away blackmail against people (namely Astumu) LOL. Running away from your problems is always the answer (I am saying this is a not sarcastic manner because I too, run away from my problems LOL) but ramen is ALWAYS a good answer. We love ourselves some emotional constipation LOL.
***none but you by broikawa (T) 7.2k // everything is a competition always LOL, not that I’m complainin but still LOL EVERYTHING. I really love this one because I love the progression and cock-block SakuAtsu hehe. I love them being synchronized idiots <3
it all comes back to you, (my home) by iritaescents (T) 4.5k // FOREVER, WE STAN FOREVER. Anyway, LOL this was is very very cute and fluff and not slow burn, it fast burn LOL. It’s a cute fic to read and it even has our favorite, now say it with me SOULMATES LOL.
Can't help falling in bed with you by tirralirra (T) 6.7k // here we see a 5 + 1 with points for the title (I think it’s very funny LOL my humor is bad ;)) Not that it really needs extra points because it’s a great fic in itself LOL but I really liked the title so I felt the need to share this with you all (OOPS). This was so cute, and the + 1 is HILARIOUS.
It’s no longer up :(((((( -> love's consequences by xginpuff (T) 6.5k // WARNINGS AND TAGS been a while since we had an angsty fic in this list (LOL the way I just tried to avoid all of them hehe). I read the tags but ngl I was still surprised later LOL maybe I’m just dumb, but anyway IK it starts out a bit confusing, but after you read more, you’ll get into it!
***sunagashi by bastigod (T) 9.8k // if there’s anything I like more than mythology, it’s folklore LOL. I love this fic and the plot is written so artfully AHDSAJN. Also the scene with the Ume-chan and her comment (so snarky I love). Also they way I went through so much trouble trying to figure out the kanji LOL (SPOILER it’s miyarin hehe)
catch me (while i'm still runnin') by lunarins (T) 4.3k // first and foremost, may we have a moment of silence for Komori and his eyebrows..... Continuing, this fic was so good because I love a good heist hehe. Their slight of hand abilities really doing the most LOL, and the ending OMG. I love the way the writer added in how they appeared to others during the heist, it really made it so good! Ugh to have a painting class and almost die LOL.
***if we get this right by Slumber (G) 5k // OLD FRIEND plsplspls I love this fic and I love how Osamu slowly relearns who he knew Suna as AHHH. The ending, again UGH, I really loved it and their banter with one another.
The Study of Suna Rintarou by DeathBelle (T) 6.1k // PLEASE the way Osamu kept getting offended omg. But also the effort Suna puts into getting to know Osamu, I was in ~love~. Read to me Osamu, READ TO ME. But also the Osamu is an oblivious MF agenda is alive and well within this fic hehe.
Take a Hint by pancake_surprise (G) 2.3k // ok so I had just read a tumbr post about the one bed thing and then I saw this fic. It was like the stars aligned okay? I was like, ig I HAVE to read it now hehe. But seriously read it, it’s cute and like everything else, of course there’s a challenge to be made LOL.
Heatwave by pancake_surprise (G) 2.1k // the way they were dating without knowing they were dating man. The tag ‘Didn't Know They Were Dating‘ more accurate than the ‘first dates’ one LOL jk but actually tho am I kidding? It’s the first official one IG. LOL anyway, we do love the doin of the defining of relationships. Yup.
If you made it all the way down here, CONGRATS LOL. Like I said, I didn’t read all of them (sadly) and these were the ones i did read LOL. I might add more depending on whether I can motivate myself into reading fics I know will be good LOL so we’ll see heh. Honestly, I thought I was gonna get word counted, but YAY we finished (for now hehe). Also sorry for any possible typos (is this no beta we die like men?) I’m running on 90 min of sleep so my engrish be strugglin LOL. Be safe and wear masks :)

nyodrite
honestly i am just so curious on how Dissidia would go here because you can have teen Nox and Apollo and smol Noctis traveling with a frantic Regis
nyodrite
or have Regis not present but just watching his sons and younger brother through crystal vision and fretting
Me: Oh it would ABSOLUTELY be all four of them. Not that they know it at first, because Nox and Apollo get yoinked by Spiritus and Materia was like “he doesn’t get two when I don’t!” And she yoinked Regis and Noctis, not realizing how YOUNG Noctis was, because his soul/magic feels so much like Nox, who is le teen.
Cue Regis freaking out while holding his son in the middle of a desert, then meeting Lightning, who takes one look at this Dad and Smol Child and going “ah. I need to go hit a goddess. Clearly. Come along sir we’ll go hit her together”
WoL: “wait pls don’t. I’m sure there’s an explanation.”
The explanation is Materia staring at a wide-eyed Noctis and going “Oh. I thought you would be larger.” And Regis’s temper snapping to go on a massive Dad Rant about stealing people from their worlds without permission. PARTICULARLY CHILDREN. HE CAN SEE THE OTHER KIDS IN THE ROOM YOU KNOW. HOW DARE YOU.
Spiritus calls but Nox and Apollo are both hiding in the back so no one sees them, but THEY see Regis with Noctis in his arms and a growing gaggle of kid heroes gravitating toward his sheer dad vibes and Apollo starts grinning in the way that means he’s about to go commit genocide on something (read: the race of beings that rule this world. If there’s only two of them, then stabbing one of them counts as a massive population decrease right? He’s pretty sure that’s how it works). Nox is just staring blankly at the view screen, giving off a faint blue aura that honestly makes a few of the saner villains nervous.
They eventually get over their temper and agree to go help Regis first thing. Sephiroth tags along because at this point it’s a running gag in all my Dissidia posts and also he’s curious about Nox and Apollo.
They get there in time to see Regis’s group (which is Him, Noctis, Any Kid Hero he can find, Lightning, Y’shtola) being attacked by ... idk Exdeath, Kefka, and a bunch of the crystal copies. They’re doing good honestly, they have Regis, Y’shtola, and Lightning as the adult heavy hitters and Terra and Onion Knight are hardly pushovers and they’re guarding Noctis (Onion Knight’s pride at being Dadded has been soothed by being assigned to “guard” Noctis, who Regis has explained is a crown prince. Onion Knight immediately swore to protect him with his life, as all good knights should. Regis could have cried because Child Soldier No).
Nox and Apollo crash in and proceed to utterly demolish the opposing team. They pay particular attention to Kefka, because they got there just in time to hear him taunting Terra in really vague ways that to Terra and him refer to, you know, the plot of their FF world but to Nox and Apollo sounded Like Something Else. There Kefka is in for a world of pain. Sephiroth joins in to slap Exdeath around for the fun of it, and Exdeath is highly insulted. Which amuses Seph so he does it some more.
Regis is both a relief and a HEART ATTACK to see his other son and his half-brother here. Let alone on the opposite team. Because one, trusted backup. Two, HIS SON AND BROTHER HAVE ENOUGH TRAUMA THEY DON’T NEED TO BE HERE IN THIS WORLD OF BATTLE.
Nox: It’s fine, Dad, I’ve been here before. The worst part is the dragon.
Regis: You’ve what. There’s a WHAT.
The four Lucis Caelums team up along with their respective tagalongs (Regis is well aware that Sephiroth is a madman, he reeks of it, but he’s also got a muted vibe of Lost Child with a side of Weaponized Child to him still and Regis proceeds to aggressively Dad him while Nox braids Seph’s hair and Noctis utterly charms Sephiroth while sitting in his lap and Apollo watches on in amusement. Clearly, adopting and reforming madmen is a genetic thing that entered Somnus’s line of the family sometime after Somnus died), and they are the biggest team, so they attract the most attention of the crystal copies and baddies but they’re also a team with three combat-ready Lucis Caelums, Lightning, Y’shtola, and Sephiroth. Nothing that approaches has a chance at getting anywhere near Onion Knight and Terra as they guard little Noctis.
Regis is very done with this entire place. But he’s also wondering how to keep the kids, because clearly they need a new home that won’t treat them so poorly. Also Sephiroth can come too, Apollo and Nox appear to be courting him as a joint Sword. (Far away, watching from Crystal o Vision along with a horrified Titus and Axis, Clarus hisses: Regis I know that look, DON’T EVEN DARE-.)
So anyway, Kefka starts to develop a nasty flinch anytime he senses Nox or Apollo within a ten mile radius from all the murder attempts, secrets are unveiled, Regis and Co end up having a fight with a knock-off Astral (Ramuh is highly amused by the entire process), and the world eating dragon thing is revealed.
Regis: Is THIS the dragon you meant, Nox?
Nox, who doesn’t want to reveal his time-traveller status: Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Thankfully battle plans be happening and Regis ends up forgetting about Nox’s slip of the tongue later.
Regis REFUSES to let Noctis anywhere near the battle. No. Not happening. He once again recruits Onion Knight and Terra to guard him back in Materia’s tower during the Final Fight. Onion Knight is a mild pout, because DRAGON SLAYING, but he’s being asked by a KING to guard the CROWN PRINCE. Clearly his superior fighting skills are being acknowledged. So he will tolerate sitting out on the dragon slaying.
Anyway, with three Lucis Caelums (two of which is the Former Chosen King and the Former Accursed) wailing on the thing on top of everyone else, the dragon is Very Very Dead after a few hours of hard fighting and Noctis gets to cheer about how utterly epic his family is and then they all get to go home. Regis does not get to take Onion Knight and Terra along, which makes him a Sad™, but he does manage to steal Sephiroth for his sons.
Clarus could Strangle Regis when he gets back with a silver-haired psychopath in tow to serve as his son’s and brother’s sword. Regis what were you thinking.
Also as a side note- all of Materia’s heroes did such mental gymnastics in surprise when learning that Nox and Apollo are not fraternal twins but are instead uncle and nephew. Everyone looked long and hard at them, then long and hard at Regis, who just sighed heavily and said that at the time he had had the benefit of a reckless youth. His father had no such excuse and he would thank you not to talk about it further. Apollo just cackled.

pinky promise
pairing: jj maybank x reader
word count: 3.1k (i’ve never written anything this long before lmao)
warnings: swearing
summary: your birthday takes place over quarantine and because you can’t have an actual birthday party, the pogues host a netflix party for you but an unexpected guest joins which ruins the mood. jj decides to cheer you up from a distance.
a/n: hello!! i know i’ve been a little m.i.a. but, i promise that i’m back. send me some outer banks requests and i’ll be happy to do them (no smut pls) also, if you’ve sent a request recently, i’m working on em :) gif credit goes to hvitstark!!!
y/n/n “your nickname”
Tumblr media
                      「 ₊˚.༄ 」
When summer first began, you as well as the rest of the pogues were overwhelmed with excitement. You didn't have to do homework, get stressed with school, take exams. Nothing.
The plans weren't set in stone but all of you had a general idea of what you’d do from day to day. From surfing to eating at The Wreck, there was nothing that could stop you and your friends from having the best summer ever.
All of you had seen news articles, talking about a deadly virus entering the United States. It first appeared in Washington, then slowly started to spread around the vicinity. But no one in the Outer Banks of North Carolina was concerned.
So, the beginning of summer break started with absolutely no delay.
After the first couple of weeks of the virus spreading across the country, slowly but surely, you watched as people started to get worried. It got to the point were you mother was cautioning you before going to hang out with the rest of the pogues.
“I pinky promise that I’ll be safe!” You’d tease before going outside and hopping into John B’s Volkswagen.
When you hopped into the back of the van, you noticed the disappointed looks on everyone’s faces while Pope was rambling (like he usually does).
“I really think that we should start to prepare because I think that this virus is very similar to the Black Death.” He finished, taking a deep breath.
“What’s up?” You greeted, raised eyebrows in confusion.
Pope smiled enthusiastically and gave you a warm welcome while the others groaned like a walker from The Walking Dead.
“What are you babbling on about today, Mr.Heyward?” You questioned.
“He literally won’t shut up about this stupid virus!” Kiara answered for him, resting her head on the window as she sat in the front seat.
“Neither will my mom. She’s all worked about this and telling me to ‘be safe’ before leaving the house.” You explained.
“It’s not like we know anyone that’s sick.” John B shrugged, starting the van.
Seconds later, JJ started to have a coughing attack. He literally couldn’t stop, even after he had multiple sips of water.
Both you and Pope moved to the corner farthest away from him, you were laughing because you knew JJ and his personality while Pope was terrified.
“Holy shit, he has it.” He whispered in your ear, eyes as big as a Watermelon.
“He’s about to cough up a lung.” Kie commented, turning around to see the blonde flopping around like a fish.
After a few more seconds, JJ recovered from his coughing attack and sat up, a huge smile plastered on his face.
“Not funny!” Pope screamed, kicking the bottom of his foot.
“You should have seen your face, it was priceless.” He chuckled.
You crawled over to JJ and rested your head in his lap, arms crossed over your stomach as you cackled, “Oh my gosh, that was hilarious.” You raised your hand and gave him a high five, intertwining for fingers and bringing it back down to your chest.
“I only did it because Pope needs a reality check. In a couple weeks everything will be fine.” He sighed, using his other hand to take the lighter out of his pocket and light the blunt between his teeth.
Before he could, you held out your left hand which was your way of asking him to place the items in your palm because no one was interested in getting a contact high at 2 pm.
Usually the rest of the pogues would snatch it from him but you were different. You didn’t feel comfortable being rough with him because you knew about his life at home and you didn’t want to set him off.
That was one of the many things that JJ appreciated about you. You were gentle with him and always took your time, not wanting to him to feel rushed. So, he always complied when you asked.
“Fuck it, I’m taking all the toilet paper.” Pope commented out of context, causing everyone to laugh.
                      「 ₊˚.༄ 」
Fast forward one week later and your entire life has flipped upside down.
Covid-19 shut down absolutely everything. Kie and her family were forced to close down The Wreck because they couldn't take the risk of hurting any customers or members of the staff.
All of your friends were separated, except for JJ and John B because they quarantined together, not wanting to be alone during this time.
To be honest, you missed everyone, especially JJ because the two of you always gravitated towards each other so it was pretty hard to be separate from him.
To stay connected with each other, you all texted in the shared group chat and had group facetime’s and netflix parties almost every single night.
John B insisted on inviting Sarah and you didn’t know how to feel about it. Sarah and Kie did squash their beef but, she told you all of the things that happened and it really rubbed you the wrong way. But, you wanted John B to be happy, no matter who it was with.
“Holy shit, y/n/n your birthday is in 2 days!” JJ noticed while the two of you were on facetime. John B was busy talking to Sarah so, he called you to pass the time.
“Yeah.” You replied, unenthusiasticlly.
“I know it sucks that we’re in quarantine but, I promise we’ll have a group facetime and you can pick the movie.” He smiled, you didn’t even have to elaborate on why you were sad because he knew you that well.
“Wait for real?” You laughed.
Listen, everyone has different taste when it comes to movies so, every time that you’re doing a netflix party, it’s really hard to decide on a movie that all of the pogues can enjoy.
“Okay, now I’m excited. This is going to be so fun!” You screeched, clapping your hands together.
“Shit, John B’s calling me. I’ve gotta go but, keep that same enthusiasm, okay?” He replied, smiling into the camera.
“Pinky promise.” You gave him the biggest grin known to man before hanging up.
                      「 ₊˚.༄ 」
Exactly two days later, you woke up to your mom towering over you with a cake in her hands, “Happy 17th birthday, y/n/n!” She took JJ’s lighter that was sitting on your nightstand and lit the ‘17’ on the cake.
“Woah!” You said, rubbing your eyes. It was still pretty early in the morning and you couldn’t fully comprehend what was going on.
“Thank you so much.” You sat up in your bed, making room for your mother to sit.
“Make a wish.” She encouraged, taking out her phone to capture the moment.
“I wish that I have the best day ever, despite not being about to see my friends.” and with that, you blew out the candles, smiling up at your mom.
“Awe were you recording that?” You smiled, covering your face.
“I was gonna send it to your friends,” She paused, “Speaking of them, are you gonna uh... party on neflix tonight?” She squinted.
You chuckled, your mom really wasn’t as aquatinted with technology as other parents, “Yeah, the 5 of us are gonna watch a movie on facetime. I promise to keep it down.”
“Thank you. I’m gonna go start on breakfast. I’ll call you when it’s finished.” She left your room, leaving the door cracked slightly.
After a few seconds of staring off into space, you checked your phone like you always do when you wake up and your phone was filled with notifications.
Your smiled from ear to ear. Unlike the average kook, you weren’t very popular but that didn’t matter because you had 4 of the best people on planet earth as your best friends.
The first thing that you checked was Instagram. You tapped through the stories that you were tagged in and were met with some of the best memories that were caught on camera.
From the time you accidentally set off the sprinklers at The Wreck, getting all of the customers wet as they were leaving to the time that you got stuck at the top of the monkey bars at your old elementary school and JJ had to come and save you.
You almost started crying because you hadn’t been apart from any of your friends for more that 12 hours and even though it’s only been a week, it felt like forvever.
Before you responded to the countless amount of texts from your aunts and uncles, you texted the group chat and gushed to them about how thankful you were that they all posted something in honor of your birthday.
They all politely told you to and I quote, “shut the fuck up.” because it was a given that they’d praise you for your special day.
You rolled your eyes with a smile on your face and threw your phone on the charger, heading to the kitchen to eat breakfast with your mother.
                      「 ₊˚.༄ 」
The sound of your phone ringing tore you away from the piece of cake that you were chewing.
“And the guest of honor has arrived!” John B gushed, JJ was sitting next to him and it looked like they were on the couch.
“Get any presents?” Kie asked, positioning her phone upwards so that she could be seen.
“Nah, unless you count cake.” You chuckled, showing them the piece that you were currently devouring.
“That looks so good.” Pope commented, he was staring into the camera, hypnotized by the sweet treat that you had just showcased.
“Snap out of it!” JJ started clapping his hands in the camera causing Pope to fidget slightly taking his face out of the camera.
You spent the first 30 minutes of the facetime call catching up about the stupid quarantine habits that you all picked up. 
Kiara had given herself a few dolphin stick & pokes, Pope had started online shopping, like a lot. He had at least 30 new t-shirts in his closet. John B calls Sarah while JJ spends most of his time talking to you.
“Wait, wait, wait guys,” You paused, trying to get their attention because they were all screaming at each other, “Are y’all ready to watch the movie?” You questioned, opening a new tab on your computer.
“Yeah, yeah. Wait a second.” John B put himself on paused, you could hear JJ sigh because he does that at least once every time that you all are on a group call.
After a few seconds, you heard everyone's phone ding as well as your own. You all had gotten a group e-mail to join a netflix party. At first you were confused because JJ said that he talked to everyone and they agreed to letting you chose the movie.
A few more seconds passed and you saw another square begin to connect to the facetime call. It was a number that no one recognized so, everyone was pretty stunned (except for john b).
The mystery person finally connected and it was revealed to be Sarah Cameron. 
You looked at everyone's little square and saw how wide their eyes were. JJ seemed furious but, he didn’t want to make a scene because after all, it was still your birthday.
Kie and Pope looked shocked that John B would add her without asking if you were okay with it first.
“Hey guys! Happy birthday, y/n.” Sarah greeted, smiling.
“Thank you.” You croaked back a response, going on your computer and opening the e-mail that was sent, clicking the netflix party link.
After taking a second to load, you saw that you were watching the 4th season of Riverdale. (yikes)
You rolled your eyes, praying that it went unnoticed.
“Is this what you wanted to watch, y/n? I thought you hated Riverdale?” Pope asked, still a little confused on the whole situation.
“Nope.” You stated dryly, shrugging you shoulders and falling back onto your bed.
“Oh, it was my idea.” Sarah chimed in, her bubble got bigger because she had said something, “You don’t mind, right y/n/n?”
“I kind of wanted to watch Back to the Future.” You revealed.
At this point, everyone was shocked, even you. You didn’t hate Sarah, she was currently being really nice but you wanted to spend your birthday talking to your best friends and she didn’t fit into that category yet.
“I don’t really like that movie.” John B commented, earning a slap on the back of the head from JJ.
“Actually,” You paused, contemplating if you even wanted to continue the sentence. You had two options, make a scene or leave peacefully.
“I’m not feeling to well. I think I’m going to go but, have fun watching Riverdale.” Before anyone could protest, you hung up.
Option two it is.
“Fuck birthday’s.” You concluded, turning off your light. You didn’t have the energy to argue with anyone so, you decided to go to bed and deal with it in the morning.
JJ muted the phone so that no one else could hear the conversation that was about to ensue, “Dude, what the fuck?!” He yelled at John B, who was very confused.
“You invited the girl you’ve been mackin’ on for a month to y/n’s birthday party. Did you even ask her?” He stood up, towering over his friend.
“Woah, woah, calm down. I didn’t think that she’d care.” He defended himself.
Pope and Kie were texting you while Sarah was too busy watching the cringe unfold on Riverdale that they didn’t notice that John B and JJ were arguing.
“All she wanted was a good birthday and you fucking ruined it.” He accused, poking at his chest.
“I didn’t ruin it. She was tired and had to go!”
“It’s literally 9:30 pm. You think she’d go to bed this early? We’re in quarantine! Everyone stays up till like, 5!”
The look on JJ’s face conveyed that he was seconds away from punching John B in the face but he had to remember that you wouldn’t want them fighting because of you.
The blonde took a deep breath that lasted at least 5 minutes, “I need to go check on her.” He stated, going into the guest room that he was currently residing in and grabbed a big basket but with how fast he was walking, it’d be impossible to make out the contents inside.
“You can’t go see her, we’re in quarantine.” John B protested but JJ didn’t seem to care.
                      「 ₊˚.༄ 」
The sun started peaking through your window at around 6 am. The heat of the sun beamed on your face, causing you to wake up earlier that you anticipated.
Groaning, you trudged to the one and only bathroom in your house, thankful that your mom was off to work. She works for Mr.Heyward and they’re currently trying to deliver supplies to as many people as possible.
After getting ready for the day in the restroom, you headed towards the kitchen. In your peripheral vision, you saw a big basket sitting on your front porch.
Peaking your interest, you opened your front door and grabbed the basket with two hands. It wasn’t that heavy but it appeared to be filled to the brim.
Perched on the very top of the basket was a ripped sheet of blank paper covered with medium sized writing. The penmanship was sloppy and certain words had been written over and over again, most likely because the marker was running out of ink.
Tumblr media
Based on the lack of punctuation, you already knew who hand delivered this package.
On the inside was 3 of JJ’s shirts (without the sleeves ofc), a half empty bottle of cologne that he’d only wear on special occasions, a torn 2 dollar bill, and a hydroponic blunt.
If any other pogue was receiving this as a gift, they’d probably be really disappointed but, not you. You knew that JJ wasn’t well acquainted with showing and or receiving love so, this was a huge gesture.
Running back into your house, you grabbed your phone, ignoring all of the apology texts from John B, you facetimed JJ.
After a few seconds of it ringing, he answered, “What time is it?” He groaned.
“When did you deliver this?” You asked, ignoring his question.
“What are you talking about?” He didn’t falter, standing his ground.
“Don’t play dumb with me, JJ. What time did you put this on my doorstep?” You persisted, showing the poorly wrapped package that rested on your dining table.
“I genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about.” He chuckled, scratching the back of his head.
You squinted your eyes into the camera and waited a few seconds and sure enough, he creaked, “Fine, fine! I may or may not have decided to play mail man last night.”
“What the heck-?” You paused, attempting to take in what he had just said, “Wait, why?”
“Well, after Sarah crashed your birthday party, I thought you might want to wake up to something, uh, nice.” He grinned, awkwardly.
“You should’ve called me! I would’ve come outside to see you.” You replied, disappointed. He was mere feet away from you last night and you weren’t aware.
“Social distancing, y/n.” He teased. We all know that JJ is the pogue that’s most likely to accidentally break one of the rules during quarantine.
“JJ,” You took a deep breath, “Why did you all of this. I mean, it’s such an amazing birthday gift. A blunt and a 2 dollar bill, what more could a girl ask for?”
“IT’S BECAUSE HE LOOOOVES YOU!!” You heard John B scream from farther into the house.
JJ dropped the phone on the bed and put himself on mute, you shook your head, knowing he was most likely scolding John B.
“I’m sorry, he’s been spending to much time with Sarah.” He returned, “Also, I stole that bill from Kie, don’t tell her though.”
“I really really really miss you, JJ.” You sighed, frowning.
“I really really really miss you, y/n.” He mocked, of course he could not be 100% serious, even when he wanted too.
“Can you promise me something?”
He raised his eyebrows, face plastered with curiousness, “Uhhh, maybe.” He chuckled.
“Promise me that you’ll ask me out once quarantine is over?” You deadpanned. It was clear that it caught him by surprise because his face wasn’t covered with confusion anymore but shear terror instead.
“W-What was that John B???!!! You fell in the toilet! Awe shit, y/n, I’ve gotta go.” He replied, hanging up the phone.
Usually, you’d be a little offended but, you knew he was just messing around with you, especially because he was so used to making the first move when it came to getting girls.
Your phone was on silent so, you didn’t notice it a first but you had a new text message from JJ.
“pinky promise.”

Fic Recs/Mandatory Reading for Reddie fans
Here is an incomplete list of some of my favorite Reddie fics on ao3, because i cannot get over the sheer talent of this fandom’s wonderful writers! A lot of these are the Greatest Hits that you’ll find on almost every fic list, but that’s why I consider them mandatory reading. like if you haven’t read some of these, what are you doing?
the years go by like days by georgiestauffenberg, rated M
the 27 years in between, but better because richie and eddie stay together. every time i think of this fic, i think of that lady gaga meme where she’s like “brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, etc” and maybe it’s bc this is one of the first reddie fics i ever read, but this one is always gonna be my favorite
broken record by spunknbite, rated E
the mother of all time loop fics. every reddie veteran gets chills at the phrase “the house on Neibolt was still standing”
literally everything by stitchy
like seriously just clear a few days bc you’re not gonna want to stop reading this author once you start. no other author has made me literally fucking cackle in one paragraph and sob in the next like this one, pls do yourself a favor and devour all their works like i did 
the night we met (take me back) by camerasparring, rated E
ch2 fix-it where eddie shows up at richie’s door alive and with no memory. great slow burn with a wonderfully conflicted richie, 10/10
let’s hear it for my baby! series by cloudings, rated E
OOOOOOOHHH boy! a modern teen!reddie grindr AU that’s both steamy AND sweet?? more like a fucking blessing amen hallelujah
a heart that laughter has made sweet by marjaani, rated E
another lovely teen!reddie fic that’s got it all! sweet, stupid boys, humor, a teeny bit of angst, and some 5-alarm fire smut with some top eddie, as a treat
keep talking. i’ll keep walking toward the sound of your voice. by theappleppielifestyle, rated T
angst with a happy ending is my favorite, and this one is just fantastic. so sweet, so sad! and stan is featured as eddie’s afterlife buddy and idk about y’all but i cannot get enough of stanley uris in my reddie fics. read this, then read all this author’s reddie fics, they’re all amazing
collateral by loosecannon, sheepknitssweater, rated E
a post-ch2 fic that i guess could be classified as fix-it, BUT with some very interesting twists. they beat the clown, everyone lives, but no one really gets the tropey happy ending. the WIP sequel is also incredible and i live for the updates.
the greater fool  series by mischiefmanager, mostly rated T with some E
this is a series i’ll reread a lot bc it’s so fucking good. follows young reddie into early adulthood, mostly a bunch of cute shit where they figure out themselves and their relationship. also contains the single best teen reddie fic in existence, he came in through the window, but reading the whole series is a must
brokeback derry and everything else by Amuly, rated E
27 years in between, richie and eddie reconnect in their 20s and meet back up in derry twice a year to remember and love each other before going back to their lives and forgetting. so much pain. there’s a lot of sweet stuff in there, but you can see shit’s gonna get complicated from miles away and the anticipation almost gave me stomach ulcers (in a good way). ultimate angst with a happy ending.
let me name the stars for you by playedwright, rated M
speaking of angst with a happy ending...Martian AU!!!!! this one fucked me up in the best way, i literally called my roommate at 2am to vent to her about my emotions after reading it. i go back and reread chapter 8 just to be overwhelmed by it, and it makes me cry every time. plus, there are awesome sequels/companion pieces in the series! read this, i beg you!
walk through fire for you by hyruling, rated T
unwind after all that angst with some cute, drunk, confused eddie being very upset when he finds out richie is engaged. richie only teases him a little before pointing out the matching ring on eddie’s finger. 
in the heat of the summer (you're so different from the rest) by kaboomslang, rated E
post-ch2 slow burn with tags that really say it all, including but not limited to: eddie moves to california and richie is a mess, Eddie Kaspbrak’s Hot Girl Summer, and cute middle aged man dates
pivotal moments by danfanciesphil, polypocket, rated E
high school reddie has a sort of fwb thing goin on, but emotions get in the way. featuring wonderful bevchie friendship, hella miscommunication, cute double dates, high eddie, and a happy ending
like a bullet in the back by jerry_duty, rated M
adult idiots in love! a personal favorite trope of mine! slow burn with a fair helping of angst but a really great ending. richie stays with eddie in new york while he’s there on business, and it takes these losers SO LONG to figure it out but the way they dance around it is very cute
no sense of living without aim [WIP] by liesmyth, rated E
richie and eddie meet on grindr in the 27 years between and hey, whadda ya know, they fall in love! i really love this fic but i’m pretty sure it’s been abandoned. i’ve had it open on my phone browser for like 3 months with no update but i still check it regularly bc i’m pathetic and this fic is just so good i’m DYING to know what happens next so read at ur own risk
a strange sense of familiarity [WIP] by Katranga, rated E
another “they meet and fall in love without remembering” fic, and even though it’s not complete yet, it gets regular updates. oh, also, i’m obsessed with it. they’re long distance fuck buddies who can’t admit they’re in love, and then they get hit with the childhood memories! and everyone lives! what’s not to love!  also PLEASE read kisses take like mint and every other reddie work by this author, they are all fantastic
adult friends by sudowoodo, rated T
AU where adult reddie meet at a first aid seminar for work (immediately fall in love), become friends, become best friends, and finally get to be happy. has some super repressed eddie and intensely pining richie, which is always fun, and genuinely made me laugh out loud. also please check out this author’s other reddie fics, there’s some super sweet kid reddie in there that really warms the heart
the mind's a funny fruit by joldiego, rated T
eddie wakes up barely alive in derry, has 0 memory, calls himself richie, and moves in with some lesbians. an absolute must read that ought to be on every reddie fic rec compilation. i read this a long time ago and just thinking about it makes me want to read it again.
now what i'm gonna say may sound indelicate [WIP] by IfItHollers, rated E
it took me entirely too long to find this fic since i joined the fandom, and it’s truly a fucking masterpiece. it’s almost at 200k now and still unfinished, and the slow burn is excruciating, but this is a legendary fic for a reason. eddie spends the first chunk of this fic in the hospital recovering from the massive chest wound, and then he and richie move the recovery to ben’s cabin in the woods. the author’s notes for each chapter are a story in themselves
signs of a new lifetime by swordfishtrombones, rated T
one of the sweetest, most romantic reddie fics i’ve ever read. a fresh take on a classic concept: post-ch2, they’re in love, they haven’t said/done anything about it yet, BUT!!! it’s not angsty! they are all cute and giggly like “you say it first!” “no, you say it first!” and it makes me fucking MELT
broadcasting tower by swordfishtrombones, rated E
back-to-back recs from the same author! bc i love these fics so much! sort of similar to the last one in that they both know what’s up and just haven’t said it, but this one’s got the angst! i didn’t know when i read it that it was the same author as the other fic, and i thought how funny, i found another reddie author that perfectly captures this pair in such a wonderfully romantic way! i also just noticed there’s a follow up to this so now i have to go read that immediately
eurydice; the original comeback kid by Vulcanodon, rated M
for the love of god please read this and the other work in this series. it’s a ch-2 fix-it with some intense action sequences and major pining, and it has haunted me since i first read it
love on the telephone by tempestbreak, rated E
okay this one is really just 30k of pure smut but it’s also so sweet and features a mini sexual awakening for eddie and some insecure richie with an emphasis on how much they love and trust each other. also it doesn’t hurt that the smut is fire, like does anyone else want that twink obliterated, or is it just me?
the boy who loves you by candlejill, rated E
eddie lives, richie confesses, things are chill and then they’re not. richie’s career flourishes, which is always nice to read and is what ultimately catalyzes eddie’s gay awakening and realization of his love for richie. it’s got some sad angsty parts and a very sweet ending, and it up there as one of my favorite reddie fics of all time
richie and eddie break up [WIP] by skeilig, rated M
a refreshing and realistic take on life ch-2 for the losers, because being in love at thirteen doesn’t mean you can fall into a perfect relationship at 40. i’ll admit, i’m hoping this will ultimately be a “richie and eddie get back together” fic, but it’s still a very good read (and often very funny in the second chapter) at the moment in the midst of their break up
september 1989 and everything else by pineapplecrushface, rated T
cute kid reddie figuring it out and making me smile. the follow up to this and the after derry series by this author are also personal favorites
go west by ssstrychnine, rated T
road trip fic! an absolute work of art slow burn with teen reddie in the 90s. it’s so beautifully written i just wish i could go back and read it for the first time again
the edification of eddie kaspbrak by tozier, rated M
character study with some incredible fucking prose, my lord it gorgeous. explores how eddie learns about love as he grows up, and it’s super fucking sad sometimes bc the poor boy doesn’t know how to have the things he wants and i just want to give him a hug, but it’s really a spectacular fic
circular motion by sinchronicity, rated M
soulmate!AU that follows book canon and even though it’s been a long time since i’ve read it and the details are fuzzy, i remember absolutely loving it and thinking it was incredible
tell me you know by RichiesToesHurt, rated E
college losers with some severely pining and jealous richie with a lovely ending 
predicament bondage [WIP] by dgalerab, rated E
i resisted reading this fic for so long, recently broke and binged all of it, and now i’m like frothing at the mouth for updates. richie’s a closeted actor/comedian who meets eddie, a professional Dom, when he needs help researching a role. they become friends, they develop crushes, richie realizes he’s a sub, and it’s just so much fun to read
there’s a lot more fics to rec so i might add on to this in the future, but in the meantime my biggest tip for for reading fanfiction that took me embarrassingly long to figure out: focus on the authors! if you read something you like, check out the rest of the work by that author bc odds are you’ll like that too. i mentioned it in a few specific works above, but check out the authors catalogues for these fics. if i included every work by these authors that i loved, this list would be miles long
feel free to add on any great stuff i missed, there’s sure to be tons of it!
