Falling for you
Jj Maybank x female reader.
TW: implied sex, swearing, fluff, mentions of underage drinking/smoking and domestic violence
:readmore:
You grew up living next door to the maybanks, mostly alone, you’re parents worked and weren’t the most reliable.
You first met Jj when you were 10 years old, you heard banging and yelling from next door, so you ran onto the porch to see Mr Maybank beating the shit out of jj.
You were ashamed of yourself but you froze, not knowing what to do. Until you saw Mr Maybank drive away, leaving jj at home.
You walked across the connected yard and up onto their porch.
You knocked on the door, hearing crying from inside. “Go away!” He yelled.
You knocked again.
“What?” He almost screamed as he opened the door, taken aback when he saw you. He always watched you when you stood on your porch painting for hours on end, but he never had the courage to talk to you.
You stared at each other for a moment.
“Do you wanna come over?” You blurted out, unaware of what else to say.
He just nodded and followed you back to your house, less than 30 steps away.
You lead him to your extremely neat bedroom full of beautiful paintings and books, white and green were the most prominent colors as he looked around.
“You painted these?” He asked, although he knew the answer.
“Yeah, it’s my favorite thing to do….other than read.”
He nodded. There was a silence, neither of you knew what to say.
“I heard what happened.” You spoke.
He just looked down.
“My dad does it too you know?”
“What?” He was shocked that someone could bring themselves to hurt such a sweet individual. He has seen you reading in the garden, or sitting by the water on the pier or helping injured animals.
You simply hugged him. He stood for a moment, before tears fell from his eyes and he hugged back.
After that day, you’d occasionally listen to him talk about John B, another pouge or a fish he caught that day. But you were never really that close, but he always remembered the day you hugged him, the day you made him feel like he deserved more than what he was given.
As Jj grew older you admired him a little more, tall, handsome, muscles.
And as you grew jj admired you, he never seemed to commit to a girl but hell- if he had the chance you’d be his forever.
Your long hair, sweet smile, pretty little eyes and the perfect body. You seemed like an Angel where as he seemed to carry trouble around with him.
It was one year at the bonfire, both of you were now 17 when jj saw you through the flames, beer in hand. Everyone was either drinking or smoking, dancing or talking, you sat alone, reading your book, in your own little world.
“Jj!” Pope yelled.
“Yeah.” He snapped back into reality.
“Dude!Are you staring at y/n l/n?” John B scoffed.
Jj was quiet.
“Oh my god dude, there’s no way!” Pope smiled.
“What what?”
“She’s just-“ John B shrugged.
“She’s gorgeous dude, but she’s so…I don’t know nice, you can’t have like a one night stand with her, it’s like throwing away a puppy.” Pope explained
“Imma do it”
Jj thought for a moment before walking over to you, ignoring his friends. He sat down next to you, and your head didn’t move from the pages.
“Hey.” He spoke.
“Oh.” You smiled. “Hi.”
He looked at you for a second before speaking. “Do you maybe wanna hang out with me and my friends for a while?” He asked.
It took you a second to realize he wanted to spend time with you.
You nodded and he helped you up, leading you to John B, pope and Kiara and Sarah who had now joined them.
“This is y/n everybody, and that’s John B, Sarah, pope and kie.” Jj introduced as you waved innocently.
“Hey, hi.” Everyone waved.
“You guys wanna hit the water?” Jj asked and soon enough everyone was on John Bs boat, just riding slowly along the water.
“I really like your top.” You told Sarah and her smile grew wide, immediately telling you about this store she loved.
You smiled and nodded.
“Y/n you want a beer?” Jj asked.
“I’m okay thanks…I don’t drink.” You spoke softly.
They all frowned.
“Just makes me anxious, besides when all of you are falling overboard I’ll be the designated captain.” You smiled and they all chuckled.
The night went on, smiling and talking, enjoying the air. You and jj were lying at the back of the boat playing 20 questions which ended up just being questions.
“Favorite musician ?” Jj asked staring at the sky.
“Mmm, Taylor swift.” You answered and he pushed himself up onto his elbow to look at you.
“Dude!” He exclaimed.
“What!?”
“Really? She’s so- I don’t know.” He sighs.
“Amazing, talented, gorgeous, phenomenal?” You asked. “Come on who’s yours?”
“Metallica.” He lay back down.
“Dude !” You copied.
“What?” He laughed and you just shook your head.
“Nothing they’re a great band.” You laughed again. He smiled at the sound, it gave him butterflies.
The game went on for ages until John B dropped you both off at the pier by your houses.
“Okay okay, but seriously what’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?” Jj asked.
“Ummm, I haven’t really-“
“Oh come on! Everyone says your so reserved and quiet I think there’s a catch.” Jj added as you both sat on the pier looking at the water.
“You know the cliff, above the water near the center of obx?” I asked and he nodded, “I once did a backflip off of there.”
“Bullshit!” He smiled.
“It is not!” You pushed his shoulder playfully.
“I bet you can’t even do a backflip.”
“Can too!”
“Prove it.” He smirked, cocking his head at the water.
“Fine….on one condition.”
“What’s that?”
“I get to paint you….while we listen to Taylor swift.” You smiled.
“Deal.”
You stood up and removed your baggy t-shirt to reveal your stripy bikini top, slipping off your white jean shorts, leaving them on the pier.
You caught jj’s eyes lingering a little too long and prayed he couldn’t see you blush.
“You ready?” You asked him.
“Yeah.” He smiled at you.
You stood at the edge of the pier and pushed off, doing a backflip into the water.
“Shit that’s cold!” You yelled as you surfaced.
“You alright?” Jj asked with genuine concern.
You nodded as he helped you back onto the pier.
“That was great!” He smirked.
“Okay wait here!” You yelled, quickly sprinting to your house to get your speaker and paint.
Pretty soon you were sitting on your porch in your shorts and bikini top, painting jj onto a small canvas.
“You paint people often?” He asked as Taylor swift blared into the night, she wasn’t that bad he thought.
“No! Ive got no one to paint, I mostly paint landscapes, the beach, the outer banks.” You explained.
He watched the way you focused. And smiled to himself.
“What?” You asked.
“Nothing.” He shook his head still smiling.
“What?”
“It’s just- you’re really pretty.” He spoke softer then before.
You blushed like crazy as a feeling you’d never experienced flew around inside. A buzz of bliss and admiration.
“Almost done?” Jj asked, clearing his throat.
“No, but I’ve got the basics down, just need to shade and stuff-“ you paused when you head all too well start to play.
You smiled.
“What?” He asked.
“I love this song.”
He almost laughed at your excitement.
You stood up and helped him off the floor as well.
“Dance with me?” You smiled all giddy like a child playing with their favorite toy.
“I don’t dance.” He shook his head.
“Please!” You started swinging his hands.
He sighed heavily as he spun you around, and you giggled happily.
The hold you had over him was unreal, especially considering you barely knew each other.
You mouthed the lyrics dramatically as he laughed. His smile made you happy.
He grabbed your hips and you swayed as the song slowed, and jumped around when it picked up, spinning and singing for 10 whole minutes. Jj hadn’t had this much fun in years.
He saw the sky start to turn orange, signaling the sunrise. “Come on.” He pulled you by the hand towards his house.
“Where are we going?” You asked grabbing your shirt and your book.
“You’ll see!” See smiled and dragged you towards his bike.
He climbed on but you stopped.
“You scared?” He asked.
“A little.”
“Don’t be. I’ve got you.” He spoke in such an assuring manner that you climbed on to the back of the bike, arms loosely around his waist.
As the bike moved forwards your grip tightened dramatically. He smiled, the feeling of you so close made him weak.
Your eyes were shut tightly as you felt the bike climb up hill until the road felt flat again.
“You seeing this?” He shouted over the wind.
You shook your head against his back.
“Oh come on n/n!” He smiled.
The nickname made you flustered as you opened your eyes and saw the sun peaking over the ocean, the sky red and orange.
“It beautiful.” You whispered.
“Perfect for you then.” Jj spoke.
There was that feeling again, and it only heightened as he sped up, climbing higher and higher, up on the island.
You giggled. “WHOOOOHOOOOO.” You screamed and laughed again. Jj laughed too and copied you.
When you reached the highest point in the outer backs jj pulled you to the edge of the cliff where you both sat. Just in time to watch the sunrise.
“This is amazing.” You smiled.
“Isn’t it?”
You both watched the sun on the water for a while in a comfortable silence, legs swinging off the ledge. Feeling more alive than ever.
You turned to jj at the same time he turned to you, realizing how close you were.
He examined your face and you examined his.
He glanced at your lips. “Jj.” You whispered.
“Mm.” He hummed still staring at your lips.
“I’ve never kissed anyone before.” You spoke so softly, almost embarrassed you looked down.
“Then you’re all mine.” He lifted your chin and your lips collided.
Passion exploding inside of you.
His lips were softer than you expected and he pulled you closer as your hands played with his hair.
you pulled away smiling shyly at him. “You’re beautiful n/n.”
Normally he would be taking you back to his place by now, but you were different than the other girls he’d gone out with. You were sweet, and smart, kind and worth spending time with.
“Thank you…for everything.” You smiled. He frowned. “This is the most fun I’ve had in…forever.”
“Me too.”
~~~~
It only took 2 weeks for you to officially start dating.
Jj quickly became your best friend and you became his.
You would lie under the willow tree behind your houses, his head on your stomach as you read to him. He didn’t admit it but that was his favorite thing to do, hearing you read.
He taught you how to surf, he was cocky at first until you got the hang of it and we’re almost as good as him…almost.
One day you got knocked of your board and something stung you, Jj quickly stopped cheering you on along with pope and Sarah when he noticed your face.
He helped you onto the beach most of your leg was red and purple, and some blood poured from it.
“Shit baby are you okay?” Jj asked, looking more scared than you.
“Yeah just hit some coral or something when I fell.” You spoke, face twisted in pain.
“C-can you walk?” He asked and you simply shook your head.
“Pope call the ambulance.” He spoke firmly.
“Pope!” Jj yelled so frantically both Sarah and pope sprinted to go find help.
Jj was so protective over you it was a little concerning at times.
“Jayj- I’m okay.” You half smiled at him and he shook his head frantically, picking you up bridal style to take you closer to the road where the ambulance would be.
You were fine a week later, and it was no big deal but Sarah swears she’s never seen anyone look as terrified as Jj was that day.
But you had seen him more scared, more protective…only once.
When he saw you sitting by the pier and he walked over to surprise you, only to realise that you were crying as he got closer.
“Hey it’s okay! What’s wrong baby!” He sat down and tried to hug you when he realised your lip was bleeding and you’d eye was black.
He pulled you into him as you sobbed. “Who did this to you?” He asked. Angrier than ever. Who the fuck would lay a finger on his girl. His sweet y/n.
“Was it your dad!?” He asked.
You just nodded. You had held him as he cried many times after an encounter with his father, cleaned him up and told him you loved him many times. But he had never seen you like this.
“I’ll kill him.” He stood up.
“Jayj- he left, gone to Vegas or some shit!” You called.
All these bad experiences only made you love him more.
But so did the good times. Like when he took you dancing by the beach. Or when you’d paint and he’d just talk to you like nothing else mattered, or when you’d get a new outfit or a bikini and he’d tell you that you were gorgeous and kiss you like it was the first time.
Or when he took you fishing, he would fish and you would read.
Or when he finally admitted that he’d become a swiftie and that it was strictly between the two of you.
Jj swore you were an Angel that was sent to even out his evil. When he got angry you’d calm him down, you’d make sure he never smoke or drink too much, you kept him healthy.
~~~~
About 6 months into your relationship jj decided to tease you a little. While you were cooking he hugged you from behind and you smiled.
“I love you.” He whispered. “I love you too.” You answered.
“Stand over there.” He pointed to a spot in the lounge.” Before you could ask why he gave you a look that said trust me.
So you did.
“What now?” You asked as he stood in front of you.
“This.” He whispered as he smiled, slamming you into the wall, pinning you there while his other hand grabbed your thigh and wrapped it around his hip. He smiled into the kiss and you smiled wider and slid out from his grasp giggling like a little kid.
He remembered that from one of your books.
“You like that?” He asked as you were still flustered.
You nodded excitedly.
“Let’s do that again.” You pointed to your bedroom. “In there.” You smirked.
His eyes widened. “You sure you’re ready n/n?” He asked, you’d been putting it off for months, scared because it was new.
But you knew jj was who you wanted to be with forever. “Because you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to.” He spoke.
It only made you more sure you were ready.
“I’m sure let’s goooo.” You smiled walking towards your room.
“Not gonna say no to that.”
You were safe with him and he was safe with you.
Sure he was loud and you were quiet, he was messy and you were neat. And sure you seemed like polar opposites but he was yours.
It was the silly things he did that allowed you to loosen up a little, be more like yourself and be less reserved. The way you joked with each other or the way you jumped up and down when you were excited, the way he licked your cheek and you lick him back with a frown. The way he’d grab your ass in public just to make you jump. Or how you’d drag him around the bookstore for hours.
It just worked.

Why do you love me? - "The Scare" - Rafe Cameron Series
Chapter two is here! Enjoy. Please understand that I am a college student and the chapters are short!
btw, this series is a slowish burn between the reader and Rafe
warnings?: A tiny TINY bit of angst, swearing!!
Anyways, happy reading and comment on your ideas for this series:)
my love,
skarsgardwise
"Stop it, dude. You're destroying my puzzle!" You squeak out, swatting at JJ's grasping hands for the puzzle pieces. "It doesn't seem right!" "It appears to have been hit by a car," JJ responds. You froze at his remark and slowly turned to face him. JJ's eyes squint at you, unsure of what you're going to do next.
"You're the one who appears to have been hit by a car!" You stand up and bite back, getting close to JJ's face. Your remark causes his eyes to widen and his mouth to gape open. "Did you-" he tries to respond, but you quickly respond.
"I did say it! You, pufferfish!"
JJ was at a loss for words. Your remark completely stunned him. Does he really resemble a pufferfish? His mouth was still agape. "JJ, you might want to close your mouth before the flies start coming in," another deep voice says, slapping JJ on the back. "By the way, nice comeback y/n," he continues.
"Thank you very much, John B!" You bow down and salute him, smirking at him. "The show is over, people! Come back the next time!" You added to it.
JJ slowly turns around and walks toward the mirror in the corner of John B's room. He examines his face and hair. The realization dawns on him quickly. "Oh my god," he exhales. He quickly spins around to face you and John B. "I do look like a pufferfish!" he exclaims as he falls to his knees.
You and John B both roll your eyes at each other. "How come we're best friends with him?" you wonder. "Do not ask me; ask yourself. "You first became friends with him," he responds to your question. You scoff at his response and hit on JB's shins. He collapses to the ground, groaning in agony. Trying to rub the pain away to make it go away. "What the fuck!" he exclaims.
That is correct. You did first become best friends with JJ. Yall practically grew up and lived together. You both had bad parents and relied on each other. Then JB entered the picture, and you've been the trio ever since.
“Y/n! You need to start treating my knees with respect; they don't deserve this." JB squeaks out, groaning in agony. You sighed and rolled your eyes. Men are always dramatic, regardless of the situation... "Look at me, JB," you demanded, your face solemn. He looks up, perplexed by what you're doing.
"Do you see my face? "Do I look like I'm giving a fuck?" you ask calmly. He sighs and lowers his gaze to the ground. "No..." he says.
“Exactly. Get up, pussies. We've got work to do!" You clap your hands, grab your belongings, and leave the house. JJ and JB exchange a look, their lips pursed. "Is it possible that she is using drugs?" JB inquires JJ, who looks at him as if he is stupid.
"Are you insane? No!”
𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓 𖤓
You arrived at the beach to spend time with Kie and Pope. You got out of twinkie, shut the doors, and went to the back of the car to get some stuff for later. JB swings open the back door, almost hitting you in the face.
“Aye! "Watch out, bastard!" you yell at JB. "It's okay princess," JJ says as he stifles a laugh. His hand rubbing your back. "Oh, quiet down, you little bitch!" You snap back, your gaze fixed on him. He laughs at your retort.
"You're really feisty today!"
You sigh, ignoring his remark. JJ smirked to himself when he saw you upset. He grabs both of your hips and lifts you off the ground, slinging you over his shoulder as he sprints to the water. You squeak in response to the sudden movement.
“JJ! I swear to fucking God, don't throw me in the water!" You threaten him by slamming your fists into his back. He laughs at your comment. He was getting closer to the water. He threw you into the water as soon as he arrived.
You were quickly submerged when you felt the cold water touch you. You could feel your anxiety rising quickly, and you felt like you couldn't swim back up. It was awful; you couldn't feel anything. Then you noticed your eyes closing.
You were suddenly pulled up by frantic hands gripping your waist. You gasp for air because there is no water around you. You blinked quickly as you opened your eyes. Your gaze met JJ's, who was holding your cheeks and looking around to make sure you weren't hurt. You could see the panic in his eyes as he looked for any indication that you were okay.
"JJ," you said quietly. He didn't hear you because he was too focused on his thoughts. He felt like a jerk after what he did to you. You have a firm grip on his wrist. "JJ!" you yell at him. He finally fixes his gaze on you.
"I'm fine," you say quietly, afraid that saying anything louder will scare him away. You gradually relax your grip on his wrist. He exhales loudly, relieved that you were not hurt. "I can't lose you now," he said, bringing his forehead to yours. "Never, ever."

Lie? || Rafe Cameron x pouge!reader/ JJ Maybank x pouge!reader
Summary:rafe tries to be a good boyfriend and be as honest as he can but sometimes his emotions get the best of him.
WARNINGS: swearing, toxic relationship, angst-fluff
Please request!
Master list
—————————————————————
You sat at home waiting for your boyfriend, Rafe, to get home(you were waiting at his house). You knew he had had a long day but that usually didn’t affect how he was towards you, so you weren’t worried. Eventually you heard the door open and close, but no hello, or anything really. Strange. You thought pulling a confused face. Hearing footsteps go upstairs you follow suit and they led you to his bedroom. Quietly, you opened the door, slipped in, and closed it again. Rafe was sitting on the bed with his head in his hands looking pissed.
“Rafe?” You called, grabbing his attention. He looked up at you and you thought you saw his face relaxed for a second before it tensed back up and he glared at you.
“What” he spat. Venom in his voice. The hatred in his voice hurt but confused you more than anything.
“What’s wrong?” You ask being patient with him, knowing his short temper. He grabbed his phone out of his pocket and opens instagram.
“Look at this shit! Why’d you post a pic of us together!? Huh?’ He raised his voice. “Now people think I fuck around with a pouge!” He screamed waving his hands around. Tears formed in your eyes, you had kept your relationship secret other than to the Cameron’s. You didn’t know why though.
“What do you mean Rafe? Do you not want people to see me with you?” You asked choking back a sob. He looked at you like you had said the dumbest things in the world.
“Is this one of them times when you want me to lie to protect your delicate emotions?” He rolled his eyes and you shook your head. “We’ll of course I don’t want people to see us together! I don’t even love you! I was just fucking around!” He shouted like it was the most obvious thing ever. You let your tears spill and began to cry full on.
“Fuck you rafe” you cry, grabbing all your stuff that you could find and putting them into a bag whilst he watched. He smirked like he had won some kind on game. And you left, a sobbing mess, but never looking back. Although part of you wanted to, you knew it wouldn’t help and that he didn’t want you anymore.
————————————————————————
You ended up at the château crying to all the pouges, they comforted you but jj had to say ,I told you so, obviously.
“I told you he was a prick” jj said in a “told you” voice. You just sobbed harder.
“JJ!” Kie warned. “You are not helping, now go and get me some tissue” she ordered.
“Yes ma’am” jj said, standing to attention and saluting before going to get the tissues.
“What an idiot” she jokes making you laugh.
“I know right?” You joke back calming down. You look down to your hands and she puts her hand on your shoulder. “I should have known I couldn’t fix him.” You sigh, looking into space dully. Kie looks at you sympathetically. “Why do I always try to fix people who don’t want to be fixed?” You ask looking back down and the into her eyes. She sighs and puts her hands on your shoulders making you turn to face her fully. JJ then came back and saw that Kie was going to speak so he just put the tissue next to you muttering a “here” quickly and kissing your cheek, making you blush slightly but brushed it off as a friendly action.
“Look, you just have too big of a heart, you can’t let other people suffer, you have to try and help ‘em.” She stops for a second, smiling, and you copied her action. “Remember when you found out about jj’s dad?” She questions your memory, you nod remembering that you was the first to find out after you witnessed an i cede t in his backyard when you went to see him. “As soon as you saw what was happening, you jumped in front of jj as fast as you could, just before Luke was about to hit and he punched you in the jaw. From what jj said, you didn’t even flinch you just punched back and pushed him over, then grabbed jjs hand and pulled him away and you both ran away from the house. He described it as if you had just immediately shut down any thought other than getting him out of harms way.” She spoke proudly then her tone changed “you have such a big heart that you put others before yourself and people that advantage of that. Thats why you always end up hurt.” She finished her whole speech then hugged you whispering, “you need to think about yourself too, pick someone you will look after you too” and she let go.
“She right ya’know” jj’s voice surprised you and you turned to face him. “You should pick someone that will look after you as well.” He speaks honestly.
“I know” you said softly. The only other person that you remember liking is jj but you know he’d never like you so you pushed that thought away. You couldn’t get into a relationship again yet anyways. It was too early and this time you were to broken. “But maybe I’ll wait a while, I think” you stopped, thinking if it was safe to let them know how you really feel. “I think I’m too broken myself, I’ll need to wait till someone wants to fix me as much as I do them.” You look between them and they both nod.
“I want to fix you.” Jj pipes up, his words shocking you. “I love you, I have for a few years now.” He confesses. “But I know it’s too quick so I’ll wait. Take as long as you need” you stand up and wrap your arms around him.
“I love you too, thank you for giving me time” you whisper as he kisses your head.
