White Hank and Skittles with a Tsundere Reader
I think I remember this not being a request either, just something I wrote when I had time! I just really love the tsundere trope, It's so much fun to me! What it says in the title! Again, these are over a year old so the formatting is different!
White Hank
She won't be particularly surprised by your behaviour at first: She’s a deadly mercenary, renowned for killing people, so naturally, you’d react negatively to her. However, that sort of heartbreak won’t last very long as she’ll find out soon enough regarding why you’re being rather harsh towards her. Once she hears from someone that you may or may not have a huge crush on her, she’ll have the time of her life.
While she won’t take it too far, get ready for some friendly teasing on her behalf. Her hand brushing against yours, maybe she’ll even take your face into her hands. Of course, her favourite move would be to find out whether or not a fever might be the cause of your reddened face by placing her forehead against yours, all the while smirking. She’s merciless, and she really wants to see you stutter and fail to make coherent sentences. And, just maybe, get you to blurt out a confession.
Once you’re together and you’re being especially “mean” towards her again, she’ll simply give you a soft and gentle kiss on the lips, which is usually enough to make your mind shut down. Afterwards, she’ll give you a chuckle as she watches you try to comprehend what happened. And if you’re the sort to hide behind your hands, she will make a comment about how adorable you are.
For as much as she likes to fluster you, it’s those soft moments where you don’t deny her that she treasures. The ones, where she simply holds you and you rest against her chest. No silly and empty insults, just peace and quiet. If you fall asleep against her, she will stroke your back and give you the softest of smiles, all the while imagining your future together.
Skittles
Skittles knows that Nevada is a harsh place to live in that breeds cautious and violent people, but that won’t stop him in the slightest from showing you kindness and giving you a big ol smile. No matter how grumpy you may be, this ball of sunshine will try to cheer you up and make you happy, regardless of what it’s going to take. Therefore, expect him to spend a lot of time around you. He’s lived the majority of his life around grumpy and mean people, so he doesn’t shy away from them in the slightest.
His love language is just about anything wholesome in existence, so be prepared for gifts, compliments, hugs and so on and so forth. The meaner you get, the more worried he’ll become if he did something wrong, even if it couldn’t be further from the truth. But once he sees you deny his affection for you with the biggest blush and smile known to gruntkind he’ll slowly piece everything together. He’ll fluster you, yes, but it won’t be on purpose, he’s just a very affectionate guy by nature.
Eventually, you’ll think you’ll have gotten used to his ways, but no, he will always find new ways to surprise you. His favourite is to bring you a flower and place it in the folds of your clothes so that you look like a clown. As plant life has become sparse in Nevada, it means he’ll likely have gone through hell and back just to find one for you. If he could, he would make you a little flower crown, but alas. Still, he has hope that one day he will. But until then, he will shower you in hugs and do everything he can to show how much he loves you.
When you finally do give in and give him his much needed affection, he will literally beam brighter than the sun in our world. He knows that it means a lot to you to open up to him and be sincere like that, that’s why you might just see him vibrate in joy ever so slightly.

The Time Levi Got Jealous
Request:  @iamhowieson  Hey! Just wondering if I could make a request for a Levi Ackerman x reader. I thought that maybe the reader and Levi had a fight the night before which seriously hurt the readers feelings. then the reader tried to make him jealous, which turned out very successfully and then Levi ends up apologising and then they forgive each other. Probably with a nice cute ending but you can spin it however you like! You don’t have to do this request if you don’t want too. Warnings: Swearing Pairings: Levi Ackerman x Reader (y/n) Genre: 18+ | Fluff | Tiny amounts of Angst Word Count: 1.9K Author’s Note: I really hope this is what you were looking for and I am sorry it took so long! 😊 💜
|| Masterlist | AOT Masterlist ||
Tumblr media
The day had been going wonderfully, you had woken up on time which was honestly a miracle.  You had a good breakfast and training with the squad was probably the most successful yet. It was a great day. Until you saw the sight in front of you.
You and Petra were on the way back to your shared room after training going over what parts went great and what part you two could improve on as a team when you rounded a corner to see something you wish you hadn’t. Levi was standing there watching over the recently joined Cadets and one of them seem to be too friendly with the captain for your liking. Now you know you didn’t technically have the right to get as angry as you are, seeing as you and Levi had never discussed what your relationship was. But it was also no secret that you two were more than friends. His mouth turned up into a smirk at something she said which only deepened the frown on your face, the girl twirling her hair between her fingers.
“Y/n?” Petra asked a few paces ahead of you, noticing you were no longer following, she followed your gaze and gave you a sympathetic look, “I’m sure it's nothing,” She tried to comfort, your eyes broke away as you felt them begin to water.
“Yeah, your probably right,” You smiled forcing the tears down, she had to be, Levi would not actually do something like that. Right?
Tumblr media
You took a deep breath as you stood outside his office, you decided you were going to ask him about the girl and what you saw in a calm manner after having time to calm down. You went to open the door, but it was opened suddenly causing you to stumble forward almost hitting the person exiting. You caught yourself on the door frame looking up at the person to see it was that same girl shooting down a smirk at you.
You watched her walk down the hall with a little too much pep in her step for your liking, you watched till she disappeared down another hallway out of sight.
“Y/N,” Levi almost sounded surprised which only made your suspicion grow, you snapped your head to him looking him up and down. He seemed fine, his clothes weren’t wrinkled in any way and his hair was laid flat nicely. You stepped in closing the door behind you.
“Who’s that?” You asked walking closer to him but still kept a distance. He raised an eyebrow at your odd behavior, usually, you would be smiling when you walked in already talking about your day bring a brightness to the room that you carried everywhere with you. But tonight, was different, something was bothering you.
“She’s just one of the new cadets, seems promising,” He answered, you nodded you turned to leave not really wanting to hang around tonight, the exhaustion of your worries hitting you. It seemed like a better idea just to ignore, easier at least.
“What’s going on with you?” Levi asked just as you grabbed ahold of the doorknob.
“Nothing,” You answered much too quickly and he let out a snort.
“It’s obviously not nothing,” He stated, you turned to face him with a frown going to speak but stopping just before the words left your tongue, he was growing frustrated now. “Well go on, spit it out,”
“I saw you earlier with her and she was just- all over you,” You finally answered not able to make eye contact at him, he let out another annoyed scoff making you look at him as he shook his head.
“That’s what has you so worked up?” He asked his tone making your worries sound more of a nuisance. He clicked his tongue sitting back down at his desk. “I didn’t think you were the possessive type,” This made you frown, you weren’t being possessive, you were just concerned. Especially after the look, that cadet gave you leaving his office.
“I’m not being possessive, I was just –“
“So clingy then?” He cut you off, deepening your frown and furrowing your eyebrows as your temper rose. You opened his office door getting ready to leave before you looked at him once again to see if he would stop you, but he didn’t, just kept his eyes down at his papers that he was working on.
“I was just stating a concerned Levi, you didn’t need to be an ass about it,” You spat shutting the door before he could respond.
Tumblr media
You didn’t sleep well the night before and you did your best to not show it, though your eyes did have a slight bag to them. You let out a yawn at breakfast drinking your morning tea with Petra and the others. Levi walked in greeting the table before turning to greet you, but you turned away from him getting up to head out to the training course for the day. It was your turn to train some of the new Cadets.
You leaned up against a post letting out another yawn as you watched the Cadets go through Hand-to-Hand combat.
“Y/N,” You heard your name turning towards the voice to see your old squad mate when you first joined the Scouts, Peter.
“Hey!” You beamed giving him a tight hug, “How have you been? I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve seen you!”
“Good actually just stopping at HQ to drop off a report and thought I would stop by,” He smiled, you had always thought he was charming when you were back in the Cadets training, all the girls swooning over him. You were surprised he choose the Scouts and not the MP’s when the time came.
“They still have you out surveying along the wall?” You asked curiously.
“Of course, I’ll have every damn brick memorized at this rate,” He joked, and you let out a small chuckle. “How are things with the special ops squad, heard you have got yourself quite the kill count!” He nudged you with your elbow and you felt your cheeks up with a shy blush, you weren’t one to brag about accomplishments so when others did you always got embarrassed. You turned your attention back to the cadets making sure they were slacking off without you looking.
“Things are going good, I guess. I’ve been thinking ab- Oh Captain Levi!” You and Peter stood straight saluting to Levi as he walked up to you, you were still mad at him, so you avoided meeting his eyes, crossing your arms in front of you turning your eyes back to the cadets pretending to watch them. When he finally reached you, he eyed you waiting to see if you would acknowledge his presence further than the formal greeting, when he realized you weren’t you noticed his demeanor changed slightly as he looked up at Peter with a deadly glare.
“Are you supposed to be here Cadet?” He asked with a sharp tone, Peter tensed shaking his head.
“Sorry Sir, I was just stopping by to-“
“I didn’t ask for an explanation,” Levi cut him off, Peter gulped from nerves and you honestly felt bad for him.
“No Sir, I’m not,” Peter answered nervously, you raised an eyebrow at Levi as you watched the encounter through the corner of your eye. Levi was always a bit cold when it came to talking with others but never this intense.
“Then get the hell out of here,” Levi spat, and Peter was quick to turn on his heel leaving with a quick see ya to you as he left. “Enough training today! Your dismissed,” Levi shouted at the Cadets not taking his eyes off you as you still refused to look at him. You felt small under his gaze, you could feel your body heating up wishing that someone would come out needing you for something. Where was Hange when you needed her?
Once the field was cleared and no one was around Levi reached out placing a finger under your chin guiding your head to face him but you kept your gaze at the ground. He took a step closer to you so there was almost no room between you. He leaned into your ear and you tensed when you felt his breath on your skin.
“Look at me,” He demanded pulling back and you flicked your gaze up at him, something about him was off right now. His slight frown the furrow in his brow. He looked annoyed dare you say maybe even jealous?
“What is it, Levi?” You asked trying to keep your emotionless expression to him, he smirked knowing the act wouldn’t work for long.
“Who was that?” He asked you, you rolled your eyes, and he didn’t like that grabbing onto your arm to drag you back inside, back to his office where you knew you would have no way of rejecting him, You wouldn’t be able to help yourself. You pulled your arm out of his grip and shot a smirk of your own.
“Are you jealous Levi?” You asked with a grin, his frown deepened. He took two large steps towards you grabbing you around the waist pulling you in, his other hand snaking into your hair pulling your lips to his kissing you with an intensity he’s never shown before out in the open like this. You were shocked, to say the least, but only for a moment before melting into him. Your knees going week your hands gripping onto the edges of his jacket pulling him impossibly closer.
When you finally broke for air both panting lightly as you stared at him, he softly smiled one that you rarely got to see.
“So, what if I am?” He quirked a brow up as kept his hold on your waist tight afraid you might slip away again and ignore him.
“I didn’t think you were the possessive type.” You smirked as you mimicked his words from the night before. He frowned leaning in to rest his head on yours.
“I’m sorry for that,” He apologized, you gave a small nod leaning in to give him a small peck.
“It’s okay,” You forgave him but you still felt uneasy, wanting clarification on what you two were. You both acted like a couple but is that what he saw this as? Levi noticed you still weren’t okay reach up cupping your cheek rubbing it softly with his thumb.
“What's going on in that head of yours?” he asked concern in his voice
You let out a breath “What are we?” Levi's eyes went wide and you could see the blush on his cheeks, it was cute seeing him get so bashful at the question. He dropped his hand reaching up to scratch his neck from the nerves.
“Well- I- I thought you would already know that-” He stuttered over his words that you couldn’t help but chuckle at the once stoic and battle-hardened Captain. He shot a glare at your soft giggles which only made you laugh more.
“Are we together, Levi? A couple?” You asked deciding to make it easier on him, He let out a groan before giving a soft nodded bring a smile to your lips as you pulled him into another kiss and you felt the smile on his lips as you did.

summary: pietro has worries about potentially becoming a father, so you hep him realize everything will be alright.
a/n: my first marvel fic, sorry if I messed up the russian.
word count: 1.8k
enjoy <3
blyad’ - fuck, printsessa - princess, moya lyubov' - my love, krasivaya - beautiful, dorogoy - darling, ya tebya lyublyu - I love you, zhena - wife
__________________________________________
“I can’t believe the captain is making me practice physical combat like I can’t take someone down with my mind.” Wanda groans, holding her sore shoulder in her hand as the two of you exit the training room.
“You know he does it just in case Wanda, besides it’s good to know.” You smile, repeating the same line for what seemed like the tenth time today.
“It’s not like my powers are going to just disappear y/n, besides I strongly dislike sparring.”
“You just don’t like it when Steve calls you out for using your powers.” You smirk.
“That was one time!” Wanda groans, murmuring a couple curses under her breath.
“Anyways, I was talking to Fury about the next mission and—”
Your sentence is cut short as the wind is knocked out of your stomach and the air around you begins to blur, terrified you latch onto the person carrying you.
“Blyad’ Pietro steal your girlfriend at your own time!” Wanda seethes.
But you can barely hear her groan of annoyance as a soft chuckle brings your eyes up to meet a pair of blue ones.
“Hello Printsessa, coincidence bumping into you here.” A familiar sokovian accent greets you.
“We live in the same building Pietro, you can’t do this every time you see me—” You squeal as the blonde picks up the pace.
“You know you love it, moya lyubov'.” He sighs with a smirk, pressing a long kiss to your cheek.
“Besides, you look ever so beautiful in my arms.” Pietro teases, pausing for a moment to nuzzle his nose to yours and take in the sight of your breathless self clutching onto his neck for dear life.
“Don’t look at me like that I-I’m trying to be mad at you.” You groan, glancing away only to find Pietro still staring at you with soft eyes, like you were his world.
“Alright, you win Piet. You’re going to make me melt.” You mutter, covering your face with your hands to disguise your deep blush, but Pietro had already seen it.
Grinning proudly to himself, he paces down to the living room and drops you gently on the couch before running off again.
“So kiddo, how was training today?” Clint asks nonchalantly, gratefully turning away from his conversation with Tony.
“Well, we finally got Wanda to spar without her powers for once, so I see that as a win.” You shrug with a laugh as Pietro arrives again with a blanket to toss over you.
“That’s good, the kid needs to learn, she can’t always use her ‘mind thing.’” Clint shrugs.
“Try telling her that.” You smirk.
A voice clearing abruptly cuts off Clint’s next sentence.
“Hey speedy, anyone ever say you look like a suburban dad with those tousled locks.” Tony comments sarcastically, eyeing Pietro’s slightly overgrown hair.
“Oh leave him alone Tones, he’s been on a mission for the past couple weeks.” You sigh, playfully pushing the brunette.
“Just saying.” Tony murmurs quietly under his breath.
You roll your eyes, but smile fondly at the thought of Pietro as a father, cradling a small child in his arms.
Glancing up at Pietro, you smile, but you’re met with a different expression.
Eyebrows furrowed and lips pursed. Pietro’s eyes cast away from you, as if he was trying to bore a hole in the wall.
“Is everything alright speedy?” You question softly, resting your hand on his arm.
Your heart clenches as he flinches slightly, turning his gaze back to you.
“Yes— yes of course krasivaya.” He smiles weakly, attempting to sound cheerful, but the break in his voice was evident.
“Um— I’m feeling kind of tired, I’ll see you guys later.” You excuse yourself, nodding to Clint and Tony as you take Pietro’s hand.
“Alright, but remember tonight’s movie night so don’t eat too much before nine, we’re ordering pizza.” Clint calls as you begin to walk away.
“Alright old man, we’ll keep it in mind.” You laugh, pulling Pietro out of the living room.
“Oh she’s getting it tonight.” Tony laughs as Clint rolls his eyes.
“Watch it, the kid looked kind of upset.” Clint sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose.
“Alright, sorry Katniss.” Tony chuckles, lifting his hands in mock surrender.
Refusing to let go of Pietro’s hand, you reach the door to his room and pull him inside, finally releasing your grip and taking a deep breath.
“Are you gonna tell me what’s really up Piet?” You sigh, taking his hands into yours.
Pietro’s eyes are downcast at the floor beneath him, glancing from side to side. For a moment, no one moves, you practically hold your breath for a moment as Pietro fidgets with your fingers and mentally debates saying anything.
When Pietro finally lifts his head, he reveals blurry blue eyes with tears welled up in the corners. “Printssesa...”
Your heart drops to your stomach as the streams fall down his cheeks, you quickly lift your hand to dry them.
“Printsessa, how could I ever become a father?” He mumbles softly, pulling his bottom lip into his teeth as he tries to fight back his on-coming tears.
“Of course you could be a father Piet, you’d be an amazing dad!” You smile softly, lifting Pietro’s chin so he’s facing you again.
His lips pull up into a weak smile, but his downhearted eyes suggested there was more to it.
“Piet?” You whisper softly. “Please. You can trust me.” You murmur, lifting his hand to press a kiss to his fingers. 
The blue eyed blonde takes a deep breath and shuffles around on his feet, avoiding eye contact as your gaze softens.
“I-I don’t know dorogoy. You shouldn’t have to see me like this I apologize.” Pietro sighs, slowly trying to turn himself away from you.
“W-What? No. Piet, you’re upset. Please as long as you’re willing to tell me, I’m here to listen and help.” You smile, taking Pietro’s calloused fingers into your hand and squeezing gently.
Pietro chuckles softly and squeezes back.
“Thank you krasivaya. I don’t know how I got so lucky.” Pietro mumbles, pulling you into his arms and sniffling against your head.
“Please Piet, I think I’m the one who got lucky. The cute speedster with the perfect smile.” You smirk, nuzzling your nose into his chest.
“Yes, I suppose you did.” He chuckles softly, pressing a kiss to your hair.
Pietro clears his throat, letting out a long sigh and taking in a seep breath.
“What I mean, about being a father of course, is how could I possibly manage it.” he starts, clutching you closer to him.
“Y/n, I lost my father when I was ten, I hold onto any scrap of a memory I can hold of him but they’re slowly fading. Ever since I’ve been reckless, stupid, and childish. I almost died y/n, how could I possibly take care of children when I can barely take care of myself.” Pietro sighs and takes another deep breath.
“Truth be told I’m still much of a child myself, I couldn’t leave you with children because I died trying to prove something to myself. I couldn’t bear knowing I’d failed you and our children as a father.” Pietro finishes in a low murmur, allowing his tears to flow freely as he expressed his deepest fear and insecurity.
“Printsessa, you’ve helped me learn how to slow down and appreciate my life, but I’m still far from perfect. It’s hard for me to imagine being a father when I can see myself screwing everything up for the person who makes my life better.” He continues, gently pulling back from your arms to show the sincerity he held.
Your heart warms at the love Pietro held for you, but your stomach drops when learn his fear. Placing your hand on his cheek, you pull him towards you again, rest your forehead against his and gently clear your voice.
“Perhaps we’re not talking about the same Pietro love.” You comment softly, brushing the hair from your boyfriend’s confused eyes.
“Because my Pietro Django Maximoff, is the farthest from reckless, stupid or childish.” You begin, stroking his face with your thumb.
“My Pietro is selfless, ready at all times to help someone in need and save the day.” You smirk, watching his lips turn up as you press a peck to his nose.
“He’s brave, willing to do whatever it takes to help, but also smart enough to know when enough is enough.” You continue, kissing the tears off his cheeks.
“He’s fun, always knows how to make everyone smile.”
“y/n, I—”
“Pietro, you could never ‘fail’ me. We aren’t perfect, we’ll learn as we grow.” You smile, leaning into Pietro to press a butterfly kiss to his lips.
“Remember there’s no rush darling, and no matter what, ya tebya lyublyu.” You say as clearly as you can.
Pietro does his best to hide his laugh, but it’s futile as a low chuckle escapes.
“I butchered it didn’t I?” You sigh, shaking your head gently.
“Only a little krasivaya.” Pietro smiles, kissing your temple.
“Y-You know that’s the first time you’ve said that.” Pietro murmurs, holding you tightly against him, arms wound against your waist.
“I wanted to save it for sometime special… And I’ve been practicing.” You laugh.
“Aw I’m flattered dorogoy.” Pietro chuckles, falling onto the bed and pulling you down with him.
“Pietro!”
“You know you love it, moya lyubov.” He chuckles breathily, leaving a trail of kisses on the side of your neck.
“I love you too, printsessa. So very much.” Pietro sighs, his thick accent rolling smoothly off his tongue.
“So. Learn as we grow Piet?”
“With you beside me, anything y/n.” Pietro laughs, moulding your lips together in a soft kiss.
“Now c’mon, Nat’s picking the movie tonight.” You murmur against him.
“Oh, I love a good horror movie, Clint always screams.” Pietro laughs, standing again and pulling you bridal style into his arms, and running you to the living room.
————
“Shh, shh you’re going to wake up mama.”
You awake to the glow of a faint light and the sound of a soft cry. Squeezing your eyes together, you shift yourself to your side and attempt to drift off when a voice catches your attention.
Singing.
Coaxing your eyes open, you turn over again and glance to the other side of your bedroom where Pietro sat cradling your bundle of joy.
Pietro’s smooth voice had brought the cries to a happy coo, and you could see your daughter’s small hand reach up and touch her father’s face.
“Good morning Piet.” You smile, sitting up and rubbing your eyes.
“It’s only three a.m dorogoy, go back to bed.” Pietro insists as you stand and make your way over to him.
“And let you become the favourite, I know your plans love.” You smirk, wrapping one arm around Pietro’s shoulder and using the other to caress his cheek.
“Alright, you caught me.” Pietro chuckles, gently rocking the baby in his arms.
“Hate to say I told you so.” You laugh in a sing-song voice.
“Oh I’m still terrified, zhena.” Pietro smiles nervously, glancing over at you and pausing as he takes in your beauty in the low light. His heart flutters at the sight of you smiling down at your baby, his train of thought getting lost as you look back at him.
“But?” You question when Pietro’s sentence drops.
“But— I must say my love for you and our little angel is... Much stronger.” He murmurs, kissing your baby’s forehead.
Your heart warms at the sight of your husband's smile that matches your little girl’s.
“Learn as we grow?” Pietro smiles, leaning forward with his eyes closed.
“With you by my side, anything Piet.” You smirk, taking his fingers in your chin and meeting him halfway.
Pietro tilts his chin to deepen the kiss, but the sound of high pitched coos pull you apart.
“ya tebya lyublyu, Piet.” You sigh, leaning down and pressing a kiss to your little girl’s forehead and then the corner of Pietro’s lip.
“I love you too, y/n.” He murmurs dreamily.
“Now come on, she’s practically fighting to keep her eyes open now.” You giggle glancing down at your child’s half closed eyes.
“Alright, alright.” Pietro chuckles, placing your daughter back in the crib and collapsing onto your mattress.
“You’re doing amazing my love.” You yawn as Pietro pulls you to his chest and leans into you for a slow kiss.
“You’re not too bad yourself, printsessa.” He murmurs against your lips.
It was all even better than you had imagined.

A Little Braver - Chapter 10
Evening everyone!
I have a present for you.
This lady here will be off on holiday for a week on Friday, so I thought about landing the new chapter tonight.
This one is a juicy one and I hope you will love it. A bit of fluff before the angst gremlin comes back for a visit.
This chapter comes with a smut warning. Yes, you read correctly. In the future I will be using FTB mostly because I find it difficult to write and keep it non cringy, but for this chapter I wanted to try and add some hotness.
Also, for those who haver read Island Dreams, I am heading to Lewis on my holiday, and i might post some photo of the locations mentioned in the fic.
Well, now i can let you enjoy the chapter
Tumblr media
Aelin was at home sitting on the sofa, enjoying the food she had just ordered in, a bottle of beer and hockey. Her favourite team the Stags was playing an away game with the Skull’s Bay Pirates. 
The Stags were in the lead in the championship and the Pirates were just in second place, which made that game quite an important one. She was glad she had the night off although they would usually all camp in the communal area of the firehouse and watch the game all together. At least being at home meant she could have a beer.
Ice hockey in Terrasen was a religion. She had been a fan of the Stags since she was a kid and her dad would take her to the games. Then Aedion became her hockey buddy and once she joined the station she started sharing the passion with the rest of the team and they would also go and watch the games all together if possible.
She took a sip of her beer and kneeled on the sofa, the game was getting intense and she could not stand still.
In that instant her phone went off and she let out a curse.
“Oh for crying out loud.”
“What?” She answered while her eyes were glued to the tv.
“Good evening to you as well.” Rowan sounded almost offended by her brisk tone.
“Whitethorn, I am watching the game.”
“Uh?”
Aelin groaned as something happened on the screen and the Pirates almost scored.
“Ice hockey, Whitethorn. You have been in Terrasen enough to know it’s a religion here.”
He replied with a low chuckle. Then she heard him move and then all of a sudden a noise in the background and realised he had his tv on “wonder if they show it here. Wendlyn is not big on ice hockey.”
“You can tell. Their team sucks.” She drank a bit more “I can tell you that we are winning for now against the Pirates.”
“That’s the big match of the season I am gutted I am missing it.”
Aelin got agitated and swore a few times during some actions.
“You are a very scary woman.” She heard him switch off the tv “do you want me to call later?”
“No,” she said softly. She was actually quite happy. Since he had left three days before they had talked quite a lot over the phone at night and she had started to love their ritual. He was the one calling once he was free and she loved that new dynamic of theirs.
“How was your day training?”
“Oh, just wonderful. I spend my days dealing with cocky idiots who think they are gods because they have been admitted to flight school. Then they go ahead, mess up the exercise for everyone, almost get killed and have no respect for rank.”
She let him vent “sounds like you have a bad class.”
Rowan sighed loudly “I have been a flight instructor for six years. I had a few bad apples along the way, but this class is hopeless.”
“Can you do something about it?” She was still following the game but her attention had shifted to him. He sounded quite down.
“I reported them to the academy Commandant. I explained that starting flight school with the wrong foot was not recommended.” Another sigh “In the end it’s their school and they can do whatever they want. I don’t care. Being reckless in a jet is like jumping into a fire in t-shirt and shorts.”
“That would be very bad.”
“I know what the fuck I am doing. I have been doing this for the past 12 years. I have been in combat. Real bloody combat. Those idiots have only seen simulators. What do I need to do to be taken seriously?” He was really mad and Aelin wished she could do something for him.
“Ro, two weeks and a half and you are out. You are back with your team and students that you like.”
“How’s the game going?” He changed the topic, clearly being done talking about it.
“We increased our lead.”
She heard a popping sound “did you just crack open a beer?”
“Oh yes, I need it.”
Aelin smiled “I am having one too. Brullo has this friend who opened a brewery and I bought a few bottles and they are so good.”
“You have such connections and don’t even tell me?”
“I am sorry your highness.”
“You are excused this time. But don’t make it happen again.”
Aelin laughed “what are you going to do? Spank me?” And she froze. She should really need to learn to connect brain and mouth.
“Depends, will you like it?” His reply surprised her so much that she froze with the bottle halfway to her mouth. 
“You just have to hang around and see for yourself.”
He moaned “I will need to get back to you on this.”
“Will it help you decide if I tell you that I am wearing a hockey jersey and nothing underneath? I just had a shower…”
“Aelin…”
“What? Are you interested all of a sudden?”
“Obviously.” He groaned.
“I am teasing you, I have clothes on, but good to see where you stand.”
She heard him groan in frustration “you really are a menace and I don’t know why I bother with you.”
“You don’t have to stay on the phone if I irritate you so much. You are the one who called.” She bit back. Why they always end up fighting?
“I did not mean it like that.”
“Well then go and learn how to communicate with people because I am sick and tired of your attitude.” Her tone had grown angrier.
“Aelin, please. I was joking.” His voice was thick with sadness.
“No, I am so fucking tired of this.”
“Why can’t you believe that I was joking? Why do you always believe that I hate you?” He shouted back “I have been quite supportive with you recently. I have flown in to stay beside you after you lost a colleague. You have a problem with my attitude?” He vented “well, yours is not any better either.”
Aelin sighed “Rowan, why do we always end up like this?” She lay down on the sofa, the game completely forgotten “we had a nice conversation and then it always gets ugly between us.”
“I am sorry…” he paused and meant it “I have been looking forward to calling you. I had such a bad day that knowing I was going to phone you kept me going. I didn’t want any of this. I did not want to fight with you.”
“We are both bad at communicating.” She relaxed a bit. She did not want to fight with him either. And he was right, he had been supportive and amazing. Then she had an idea “Ro, I have four days of holidays coming up. I booked them ages ago, I had plans but they went to hell. Would it be crazy if I flew to Wendlyn? I will play tourist when you work and be out of your way, but what do you think?”
“I’d love that. Very much. It really sucks here.”
“It’s for this Friday. I known it’s short notice—” he interrupted her.
“No, it’s perfect. I don’t have a class this Friday, I can pick you up at the airport. Have Saturday and Sunday as tourists and I assume you are flying back on Monday.”
“Yes.” Her heart started racing. It was a crazy plan, but all of a sudden she was excited.”Let me check my roster, because if I finish at a decent time I can fly in Thursday night so we have three full days. Do you think you can manage that?”
“Happily.”
“Ok, stay there Buzzard, I am putting you on speaker phone.”
She ran to the kitchen and had a look at the calendar on her fridge with her roster and cheered loudly.
“Whitethorn,”
“What?”
“I come off shift at four. Now let me check for planes.”
She went to get her laptop and sat back on the sofa, “do you know any good airlines for Wendlyn?”
He laughed “Yes, my own plane.”
“Funny. Us common mortals don’t have that privilege.”
“I have no idea, Fireheart, I haven’t flown commercial in a lifetime.”
“Fine.” Aelin was silent for a few minutes typing away and looking for flight options. “Ok,” she said after a while “I can get one flight that gets me into Doranelle at 10.45pm your time, is it too late?”
“I guess I will postpone my nap.” He joked and she laughed back. He suddenly relaxed. The fight had been verging on vicious and he had not cared for that.
“On Monday I can fly back with a noon flight.”
“That one is perfect. I can drive you back to the airport and be back in time for my class.”
Aelin smiled wickedly “great, give me five minutes while I book it. Go and do grampa stuff in the meantime.”
“I am not a grampa.” Aelin heard him munching on something. Knowing him it was probably a carrot.
“Ok, now I need to find a place where to stay.”
“My flat?” He added shocked that she would think about staying anywhere else “Aelin, I have a flat. It has a second bedroom. And you don’t have to worry about giving me anything because it’s a flat owned by the airforce. It’s not a castle but it’s nice. You are not paying for a hotel.”
“Are you sure? Three days with me 24/7. That’s a lot of fighting.” She asked. She loved the idea, but wasn’t sure yet if they could survive that long in close quarters without killing each other.
“Perhaps we can leave the fighting aside and work on us?”
Aelin was silent for a moment “Us? As in…”
“As in more than two idiots fighting and pining for each other.”
Her heart pounded in her chest “Yeah, that would be intelligent, wouldn’t it?”
“Definitely.”
“But that’s a conversation for when you are here.”
Aelin smiled. She could not believe it was actually happening.
Rowan yawned over the phone “This grampa here would like to go to bed now. It’s quite late here.”
“Okay,” she said softly.
“I am looking forward having you here.”
Aelin hugged the pillow all excited “me too. Good night, Buzzard.”
“Good night, menace.”
Aelin squealed and threw the pillow at the other end of the living room in utter joy.
Thursday had finally arrived. Aelin thought the day would never come and that time had slowed down on purpose just to annoy her.
“Aedion you are in charge while I am away, will you be fine?”
The man was driving her to the airport “I will be. Go and enjoy your break. We will cope.”
“Ok, you know you can always call Dorian. He can come out on a call.” She was nervous. She hadn’t been away from the firehouse on holiday since before Sam died and was worried about her team.
“Stop fussing. We will be fine. You need a holiday. You haven’t been away in a lifetime. You deserve this.”
She breathed out, relaxing at his words. She knew she could trust Aedion and Dorian had given her his blessing too. 
“Just tell airforce boy to behave or I’ll scratch his toy plane.”
Aelin laughed. Rowan seemed to have a problem with the army but Aedion’s dislike seemed just as strong. To her it was just hilarious.
They arrived at the airport, she grabbed her duffel bag and backpack from the backseat and went to hug Aedion “thank you for driving me.”
“Let me know when you land on Monday and I will come and pick you up again.” And he hugged her back.
They parted and Aelin walked into the airport with a spring in her step and the biggest smile ever.
Rowan realised he had arrived at the airport a bit too early. He was so eager to see her that he had arrived with an hour to spare. He was a thirty year old man giddy like a child waiting for winter solstice presents. Considering their track record, three days together could go down in flame or be a success. A part of him was definitely anxious at the prospect, but when Aelin had suggested the idea he had no doubts. He wanted to do it.
Bored, he paced the arrivals section when a woman walked past him and her trolley ran onto his feet. He almost shouted at the woman but then decided to ignore it.
He viewed airports as pure madness. Utter chaos and he hated them. The good thing about his job was that if he had to travel for work he could use his jet. And when he used to travel with Lyria they had always driven. Now he remembered why he had avoided those places of pure chaos.
He moved to the big window where he could see the runaway and for a while studied the airplanes. One of his ex squadron mates after retiring from the airforce had become an airline pilot and on plenty of occasion had tried to convince him to join him, but Rowan always declined. There was little enjoyment in flying that way. 
While staring at the aircrafts landing and taking off, his hand was tapping on the handrail with excessive energy. 
He huffed a puff and and bored kept wandering around the airport. He had alway considered himself a decently patient man, but in that moment he felt as if he could not wait any longer. Had to really tell himself that she was coming and that it was not his imagination playing tricks on him. 
Luckily by the time his wandering was over, the arrivals notice board had changed the status of her flight to on approach and he went in front of the arrival section, knowing full well it would still be ages before her entrance. 
Forty minutes later he saw her and he was positive he now had the most stupid grin on his face. He recognised her golden mane tied up in a complicated braid. Gods, she was stunning and Rowan did his best not to drool too much.
She was dressed in simple jeans and a hoodie from the Terrasen Fire department and he chuckled. He waved at her and called as well.
Her smile when she spotted him could have lit up the night sky and he was positive his heart had just skipped a beat. 
Quickly an eagerly he walked to her, making his way through the crowd that had gathered.
She ran to him, then dropped her bags on the floor and in an instant she was in his arms. He lifted her up and kissed her. Not caring about the consequences. She was there. That’s all he cared about.
She kissed him back and for a while they were the couple that meets again after a long time apart and could not keep away from each other.
“You are here.” He said kissing her again and then brushed her hair in a tender gesture.
She smiled at him and slowly slid down from his arms.
He bent down and grabbed her bags “let’s go. You must be tired.”
Aelin took his hand and he did not pull away “the flight was crap. As soon as we hit the ocean it was bumpy as hell.”
Rowan chuckled “those civilian pilots struggling to handle a bit of wind.”
With her free hand she pinched his side “Meanie.” She told him “and it was bad and scary.”
He kissed her head “be glad that you have never experienced what a really terrifying flight his.” His voice was sad for a moment and Aelin squeezed his hand back.
“My car is over there.” They reached his vehicle and he dumped her stuff in the trunk.
It was fifteen minutes later when they reached his flat.
“I am a bit outside town but I love it. Much easier to go to work as I don’t have to drive through the centre. Saves me so much time.”
They entered the building and Rowan headed for the lift but Aelin stopped “pet peeve of mine. I don’t take lifts. I have saved enough people trapped in them, that now I don’t use them at all.”
“It’s eight floors, Aelin.” He complained.
“It’s good for your butt. Let’s go grampa.” Aelin grabbed the duffel bag and backpack from him and threw them on her shoulder and made her way to the stairs.
He realised that she was used doing stairs. But he was lazy and always used the lift.
“I am taking my chances.”
Aelin grabbed his hand and pulled him away “Don’t be an idiot. Come on.”
He protested but in the end caved.
Aelin relentlessly climbed on for eight floors and Rowan followed a few steps behind cursing that he had chosen to fall for a super fit firefighter.
“I can tell you some horror storie that will put you off forever from using them.” She told him while climbing the steps two at a time.
When they finally reached his floor, Aelin wasn’t even tired, Rowan instead was ready to strangle her.
“Come on grampa, I am sure your butt and your heart are thanking you right now.”
“Move.” She moved aside and let him open the door of his flat.
Once in, he flicked the lights on and Aelin looked around. The living room was spacious, from one door she could see a kitchen but what stunned her were the floor to ceiling windows at the end of the living room and the view. She dumped the bag and walked there and went to the windows.
“This is amazing.” He stopped at her side “Doranelle is called the City of Rivers. It’s not as beautiful as Orynth but it has its charming spots.” He explained with flat voice.
“Well, from up here it’s pretty cool.” Below her lay a sea of lights, then looking more carefully, she noticed the dark areas and assumed those were the rivers. She was looking forward to see that sight during the day.
Rowan pulled her arm “come on, you must be knackered, I’ll show you to your bedroom.”
She followed him into the room and smiled when she saw the bed. It looked so cozy.
She looked at him smiling “Orynth is a few hours behind so I am actually quite fine.” Gently she pinched his arm “you are trying to get rid of me.”
“I was just being considerate. You flew here after your shift.”
In one step she was close to him “I am quite hungry, though.”
Rowan laughed and patted her head “I knew it so I made something that just could go back in the microwave. Give me five minutes.”
“I’ll go and get changed in the meantime.”
It was much later when she was finally full and she and Rowan were now sitting on the sofa watching some tv. She had curled up her legs under her and his hand was absentmindedly tracing up and down the length of her exposed leg. It was much warmer than Orynth so she was wearing shorts and a baggy t-shirt.
She turned to look at him and saw Rowan concentrated on the documentary they had been watching. His face was relaxed, the tension had left his body and the sight of him like that took her breath away. His features always had an hard edge, but in that moment, relaxed, she could not look away. 
“Do I have something on my face?” A half smile appeared on his face.
“No.” She shimmied down to his side and leaned her head on his shoulder and he adjusted his position so she could be comfortable.
“You know I am not a pillow, right?”
In challenge, Aelin snuggled closer and her arms went around his waist. Rowan brought one arm around her shoulder and squeezed it almost in a silent gesture to tell her it was okay. He pulled her so close she was almost on his lap and in instant later his lips were on hers in a demanding kiss. 
Aelin sighed in delight and melted in the kiss. Rowan’s hands sneaked under the t-shirt touching skin. The kiss turned avid, all teeth and tongue and eventually she found herself straddling him. 
Her hips ground against his in a suggestive motion and a wicked smile spread across her lips when she felt him hard against her. Fingers found their target in his hair, and with a gentle tug she angled his neck and her lips began tracing its lines eliciting a loud moan from Rowan. 
His strong hands were a steady presence on her sides, pulling her closer with his thumbs brushing timidly the underside of her breasts.
Rowan’s tongue slowly traced the shape of her lips and she opened for him and when he intensified the kiss she began pondering what that tongue of his could do somewhere else. That image was her undoing. Aelin came up for breath and looked at him, his eyes smoky with lust.
She looked at him with the same desire and she was positive he had noticed the need in her stare as well.
Then Aelin stood and removed her t-shirt revealing her bare torso. She moved a step back and without ever removing her gaze from him she wiggled her finger in an invitation, then turned and swayed her hips on her way to his bedroom.
Rowan ran a hand down his face and eventually stood and followed her.
Shit. He was in such deep, unending shit.
It was the middle of the night and both Rowan and Aelin were still awake. They lay naked under the blankets while she was nested in his embrace, her head tucked under his chin, while he traced lazy lines on her back with his fingers.
She looked up at him and noticed his downcast stare. He looked sad and could not understand why. They just had some mind-blowing sex. Three times. 
“Hey, what is it?” She asked him, caressing his face.
He shook his head gently “nothing. Just thinking.”
“You are regretting this,” she said in accusation sitting up beside him.
Rowan threw an arm on his face and sighed “No.”
“Liar, that is not the face of someone who is happy after getting laid three times.” She folded her arms at her chest. 
He remained silent and Aelin bent over to grab her clothes “don’t worry. I get it. I’ll leave you to it. I’ll find a flight home tomorrow.”
His arm shot out and stopped her, then he sat on the bed and pulled her back “please, no.”
“Then talk to me, damn it.” She threw her clothes back on the floor “I can’t read your mind.” She shouted back frustration rising again. 
Rowan’s hands fisted for a brief moment “I am crazy about you,” he whispered, as if terrified by the admission “and there is a part of me that tells me that is wrong. Reminds me that I lost my wife a year and half ago and I should not replace her so quickly, not after I swore forever love at the altar.” he sat at her side but never looked at her, too scared of her reaction “I loved every single of minute we had together tonight but my stupid conscience keeps telling me that is wrong.” He lowered his head “and I know that my guilt will ruin everything, eventually.”
Aelin fully turned to him and cupped his face “Ro, look at me.” He lifted his eyes and stared in the blue depths of her own eyes “for some crazy unexplained reason I fell for you as well. I think I must be crazy,” she chuckled “I know your pain. Sam was not my husband but almost. After I lost him I promised myself I would not commit anymore. The pain of losing him was so bad that I decided I’d rather remain alone than suffer again.” She told him, caressing his cheek with her thumb “then you annoying bastard came along and destroyed all my resolutions. I wanted to hate you, for so many reasons, but the more I tried to do that, the more I failed.” His lips twitched in a faint smile “the way I see it, moving on is not a betrayal on your wife. You will alway love her, as I will always have a space for Sam. We are in our early thirties, what do you want to do? Stay celibate and miserable for the rest of your life? Pass on opportunities just because you want to be faithful to her?” She explained “also, and I do not mean this to be disrespectful, but didn’t she have divorce papers ready and a plan to cut you off from your kid’s life?”
Rowan collapsed back on the bed and sighed heavily. She was right. He had loved Lyria but she had planned to leave him. “what do you want to do?”
She looked at him with a puzzled expression.
“About us.”
Aelin leaned against him and snuggled back to his chest “one step at a time, remember?” She looked at him and his wonderful green eyes shone in joy “and if my memory does not fail me, you told me you were all in if I were.”
Rowan nodded gently and kissed her head “I still am.”
“Well, we have covered sex, even if we broke the rules, and we know that in that field we have plenty of chemistry, we just need to learn to talk without shouting and communicate better. We both have lots of baggage. What I suggest is that we spend these three days playing couple and once you come back we’ll just go from there.”
His arms folded around her and pulled her as close as possible, her golden hair in his face and the scent of lavender enveloping his senses “I think I like this plan.”
“Good, now let’s sleep though. It’s the middle of the night.”
Aelin kissed him and not long after fell asleep in his arms.
Rowan woke up the following morning and smiled at the warm body at his side. Aelin was sprawled on him, using his chest like a pillow. The blanket had fallen down to her waist and he realised they had fallen asleep naked. With his fingers he traced gentle lines on her shoulders, then leaned over and deposited a few kisses fully inhaling her scent. She moaned and slowly came to awareness and when she realised where she was she gave him a wonderful smile and he kissed her, fully, avidly.
“Someone looks happy,” she joked brushing his short hair.
“Nope, just trying to get back my side of the bed.”
She gently patted his shoulder but Rowan rolled on top of her and gave her a deep kiss “good morning, you.”
She stretched luxuriously in his arms then she kissed him back pulling her body close to his.
“Mmmm,” she moaned “morning wood or are you just happy to have me with you?”
He kissed her, then his head dipped in the hollow of her neck and his tongue traced the length of it “both.”
“We should definitely tend to it.” She teased and a moment later she straddled him “I do like being in charge, just so you know.” She leaned forward and kissed him, then disappeared under the blankets and Rowan cursed as soon as her mouth was on him.
Rowan stood and still naked went to make breakfast. They had remained in bed much longer that he had planned but it had been totally worth it. Their chemistry in the sheets was definitely perfect. Aelin followed him and she leaned, naked as well, against the counter. He bent forward and kissed her “we definitely need coffee.” She turned and Rowan looked at her, her long blond hair unbound and reaching her lower back. Along ragged breath escaped from him, then he went back to preparing breakfast. Staring at her naked form could lead to more dillydallying and he wanted to take her out to explore.
She walked back to him with two mugs of coffee while he finished to prepare French toast.
“Take the strawberries out the fridge, please.”
“I usually put maple syrup on.”
Rowan rolled his eyes “well, I am making them so we follow my rules.”
She pinched his butt “brute.”
Five minutes later they were sitting on the sofa, enjoying their breakfast. She brushed his hair with her hand. “Thank you for this. It was so lovely.” She placed her empty mug on the coffee table together with her plate and she turned to him fully and went for a kiss. Now that they had crossed that line she could not keep her hands off him. He pushed her down on the sofa, laying on her back and he kneeled between her legs. She propped herself on her elbows opening more for him and bit her lower lip at his lustful glance “you are so cute like this…” his voice rough with need.
Without ever averting her gaze she brought a finger to her mouth and slowly sucked it in a suggestive gesture, then her hand trailed down along her abdomen.
“Touch yourself.” At the same time his hand went around himself and started moving up and down while watching Aelin. Her fingers circled around her sensitive spot and he saw her threw her head backward and close her eyes. Her mouth slightly open. He leaned forward and kissed her, his tongue brushing her lips before clashing with hers. Her fingers buried inside her and Rowan lost it. He pushed her all the way down “I can’t fucking resist you.”
She looked up at him and smiled wickedly “then bury your dick inside me, captain.”
Rowan lifted her and walked back to the bedroom in a quick motion. 
His mouth landed on her breasts and Aelin’s hands kept him there, while he sucked and teased with his teeth. A moment later he moved away and went for the drawer grabbing a tie and Aelin lifted her arms above her head as soon as she realised his intentions. 
“This is very interesting, captain…”
Rowan very gently tied her hands to the boards of the head of the bed and then sat on his haunches to stare at her naked form in adoration.
“You are stunning,” he said while slowly caressing her belly. Keeping her hips in place he bent forward and his face disappeared between her legs which then quickly propped on his shoulders.
A savage moan left Aelin’s lips as his tongue found its target on her bundle of nerves and when he teased her with a finger she was all ready to combust.
“Fuck Ro— ” he cut her words with a second finger inside her. Those long digits that curled inside her, causing her legs to jerk while she felt the pressure build inside her. The orgasm creeping up quickly.
“I need you….” She told him breathlessly.
Rowan smiled, undid her ties and turned her around and then tied her again. He grabbed her butt and propped it up and his mouth was on her in an instant “you are so wet and ready for me.”
He went up on his knees and aligned himself with her entrance. His first thrust was gentle and enough to allow her to get used to him, he pulled back just a little and slammed into her to the hilt.
“More…” Cried Aelin grabbing the pillow and fisting her hands in it.
“More…” she begged him again.
His speed increased and Aelin felt her core tighten.
Rowan reached with his finger and teased her clit at the same time. Aelin moaned in the pillow as his ministration grew in intensity, until she could not hold it any longer and pleasure exploded in her making her crash over the edge. And while she was about to collapse into oblivion, she realised that Rowan hadn’t joined her in his release.
The grip on her hips grew stronger and she knew she was going to carry some marks. She met his thrusts and when his pace became frenzied she knew he was close as well. 
“Aelin, I am— ” he groaned loudly as he spilled into her and then collapsed exhausted on her back. He deposited gentle kisses on her back then collapsing exhausted at her side.
Rowan untied her then he took her hand and brought it to his chest “you are a wicked woman.”
Aelin chuckled “I had no idea I had it in me. I never… I mean Sam and I we never… this way, tied hands and all..…” Rowan brought her hand to his lips “Lyria and I did it, at the very beginning. Then it stopped and we calmed down until it became mechanical just because we were married. Once she found out she was pregnant she did not allow me to touch her at all.” He rolled over, facing her and his hand caressed her face “I thought it was because she was not well but…” he sighed “I haven’t told this to anyone but I suspected she was cheating on me.” He confessed and felt lighter. He had kept that to himself for a very long time “and to make things worse, I have a very, very strong feeling that the child was not mine. I think she lied to me on how far along she was.” He closed his eyes for a moment in a pained expression “I know she had stopped being happy about our life for a while. Whatever I did was not enough. She wanted me to retire and give up my job.”
Aelin extended her hand and brushed his cheek with the top of her hand “but she knew from the beginning what you were and what you job entailed?”
“Yes, I was clear from the start. Explained that my job took me away from months on end and all the dangers involved in it as well.” He closed his eyes enjoying the touch of her hand on his face “I think she hoped I would drop my career after we got married.”
“I loved her. I did all I could to show her that I was doing my best to keep the promise I made her at the altar.” He covered her hand with his “I failed her.”
“No,”Aelin whispered, this was conversation was giving her an insight into him and she realised she had no idea of how much pain and regret he was keeping bottled in him.
“I can’t fail you as well.” And she heard his voice break and snuggled closer to him “Ro, look at me.” She pulled his chin down to her “I am all in. I want to be all in. I am terrified, but I run into fires as a job, I know how to control my fears.”
He kissed her in a heartbreaking sweet kiss “I don’t deserve you.” His voice soft.
Aelin cackled “No one does, I am amazing that way. But you come pretty close to being worthy.” She joked and he kissed her back.
Rowan pulled away from her and then pushed her off the bed “come on, time to explore.”
Her blonde head emerged from the side of the bed “shower is mine.” And she bolted for the bathroom, he ran as well but once he got there she slammed the door in his face.
“Don’t spend half an hour in it.” He shouted. Then the door cracked open a little and her hand darted out “there is space for two…”
Rowan laughed and followed her inside.
The shower took much longer than expected and when they finally left the flat it was much later that he had planned. The whole morning had been totally worth it though, they had talked and he had a feeling it had helped move their complicated relationship in the right direction. He had even confessed her things he had never mentioned to anyone. He felt like he could trust her. She knew loss and darkness like he did.
They had lunch at one of the street vendors he had grown to love and now they were walking hand in hand along one of the the rivers and off toward the palace. Aelin walked silent at his side, taking in the city. “That’s the old royal palace.” He pointed at the stunning building they could see in the distance. “There was a monarchy once… and then the people rebelled and it got ugly and it went down and a government similar to what we have in Orynth was created.”
“The palace looks stunning.”
“I think they do tours to go inside. It’s where the government resides now but some areas are open to the public.”
“It’s fine I’d rather walk around and see the city. We can just see the palace from the outside.”
“As you wish,” his arm went around her shoulder and the feeling was incredible.
They walked to the palace and Rowan guided her behind it. When they arrived she was speechless. “It really is the city of rivers.”
Eight of them joined just behind the palace to form a gigantic basin with isles in the middle full of trees. In some parts the rivers went down a wall forming a waterfall.
“This is… gorgeous…” then she looked over and the spray of the waterfall had formed a beautiful rainbow “look,” she said to him pointing ahead.
He pulled her closer and kissed her temple “It’s quite an amazing corner this one.”
Aelin disentangled from him and walked around the area for a while and Rowan took photos of her. She was wearing an amazing green dress with a flowy skirt and he could not keep his eyes off her. 
“Come here you.” He did as he was told and joined her. “Hold me from behind.”
His arms went around her waist and they both gave their back to the basin. Aelin moved her phone so they both could be in the picture together with the magnificent background.
When she was about to click he kissed her temple.
Aelin looked at the photo “I am gorgeous.”
Rowan scoffed “I think you are the one who should move in with ego, although I think that in your case he needs a house on his own.”
She ignored him while she changed the picture as her phone background.
“I am pretending you never said anything.” And walked away from him.
Rowan laughed and a moment later he grabbed her arm and pulled her in for a kiss “Indeed you are stunning, captain.”
Aelin offered him her hand “shall we continue our tour?”
He took the hand she offered and they continued their exploration. They made their way to the area that was known as the historical one. The houses were built in stone of different colours and it looked very charming “here there are a lot of lovely small shops and some very cozy restaurants. It’s probably the most beautiful part of Doranelle.”
They continued walking until they reached a very colourful area “this is so pretty,” said Aelin pulling him toward the built up area.
Aelin dropped his hand and started walking toward all the small shops. She noticed a bakery and she walked in and Rowan followed in silence. Once inside he noticed she was busy chatting with the owner about their delicacies. Five minutes later she joined him with a bag in her hands.
“Did you buy the entire shop?”
She inclined her head and gave him a smile “almost.”
They reached the main square and discovered there was a market on and the place was full of stalls and food vendors. The air smelled of spices and food and Aelin stopped at every food stall enjoying some samples of the local food and buying some as well. Rowan followed her in silence and enjoyed seeing her relaxed.
“Are you going to spend you entire salary on food?” He joked, placing a hand on her lower back.
She turned and looked at him “I am on holiday Whitethorn, shush.”
They reached the end of the road and Aelin stopped in front of a clothes shop. In the window they had the most stunning black dress she had ever seen. She took Rowan’s hand and dragged him in.
“Hi, I saw the black dress in the window, is it possible for me to try it on? It’s stunning.”
“Of course,” said the shop owner “I make all the dresses myself.” She passed it to Aelin and pointed to the changing room.
Rowan sat on a chair and waited for her while his mind tried to picture her in the dress. When she finally emerged again he realised he had no idea how to picture her in such a dress. He swallowed hard as she walked to him.
“What do you think?” She turned to give him a full picture. The back of the dress dropped in a curve halfway down her back. It hugged her curves spectacularly and it had a cut up to above her knee. He was close to a heart attack.
“You… it’s…” he actually had no words “you are perfect.”
She smiled at him and for a brief second Rowan wished they were back in his room because he wanted to show her in another way what he really thought about it.
“Good, I am taking it. I will find an occasion to wear it.”
Once they were outside Aelin looked at him “did you really like the dress?”
Rowan wound his arms around her waist and pulled her closer, his mouth close to her ear “I had so much fun imagining all the possible ways for me to peel that dress off you.” 
“That’s the type of dress I would wear completely naked underneath by the way…”
He pulled her to his chest and bowed down for a kiss “I really hate that we are in public right now.”
She kissed him back. She was loving this side of him. One she had not expected him to have. He always appeared so composed and impossible to fluster. But under the captain’s mask she was discovering him to be quite a very interesting man. 
“You can ravish me tonight.” She added smiling against his lips and then walked away, leaving him alone and dumbstruck.
Yes, they could make it work.
She really wanted to.

"I hate the way you talk to me...
"Hey, Kook princess!" A familiar voice screamed behind your back, but you didn't even bother to look at him. You already know who it was since no one else call you Kook princess with so much mockery than JJ Maybank. His job is to laugh at you and he enjoys it very much.
"I know you heard it, princess!"
Daddy's girl or just princess was the other nicknames he use very often and you hated every single one of them.
"What do you want, douchebag?" You snap turning around and you almost throw your cup of liquor in his handsome face. Yeah, he irritates the shit out of you on a daily basics, but you admitted to yourself only that he's one of the most handsome man you ever saw. He don't have to ever know that.
You kind of caught JJ off guards. He didn't wanted to tell you something, he just messed with you because that's the only way he get to talk to you. And now that you actually give him the chance to speak, he doesn't know what to say to you.
"So?" You raise your eyebrows at him, your arms at your chest and your cheeks a slightly red because of all the booze and the dancing around with your Kooks friends. JJ looks at you, analyzing your features and the way your body looks in that yellow dress and he just can't think straight and lie to you.
"You look pretty tonight."
You don't even have the time to think about what to say because he just walks away from you, going back to the Pogues like nothing happened. But your first reaction is to genuinely smile, happily like a little girl who get noticed by her first crush.
And you probably were one.
... and the way you cut your hair.
"You think he would do a good job?" JJ asks for 100 times in that day. You sigh as you let aside the old Vogue magazine you were looking into, waiting for your hairdresser to be ready for your boyfriend.
"I told you this many times Jay, but yes. He would do a perfect job." You chuckle a little as JJ is running a hand through his long blond locks. He looks amazing and very hot like this, but it's time for a little change. "How can you trust John B to cut your hair and not a professional hairdresser?"
"It happened one time and we were shitfaced, so..." JJ says laughing and you quickly do the same, the little room now full with your colorful laughs.
"Don't worry. You will look just like Rafe after it." You casually say and you can see how big his eyes got, you biting on your lip to stop you from laughing and ruin your joke. Bobby, your hairdresser, got into the room just in time and you wink at them, especially at your boyfriend.
"I'll kill you." He mutters to you after sitting down onto the chair in front of a big fancy mirror and you laugh happily because you know he won't.
Twenty minutes later, JJ gets up from his chair and you can see the smile playing on his plump lips. His hair is still long enough to run his fingers through it, but shorter on side parts and at the back. He looks even hotter now with a fresh cut. How's that even possible?
"So..." You smile as you walk out of the salon.
"Don't say it." He says quickly, knowing you well enough to anticipate your next words.
"I told you." You say it anyway and you jump onto his back, forcing him to carry you back to the car.
I hate the way you drive my car.
"Fucking hell, JJ! Please, look at the damn road!" You scream and pull the steering wheel. He was too busy looking at Pope who was laughing onto the back seat.
Smoking on a hill at the sunset was a very good idea back then, but now you realized that JJ has to drive your mom's car back to your house since you don't have a driving licence. JJ driving was already a hard pill to swallow, but him high off his ass and driving? That's another level.
"Damn, you almost smashed that car!" Pope is laughing with not a single worry in the world and you want to slap them both right now.
"At least I'm not driving." JJ says with a smirk towards his friend, still smoking a blunt and driving way past the speed limit. They both burst into laughs again and you just can't hold your anger anymore.
"Is not fucking fun!" You yell catching their attention and for a few seconds they got quiet until your boyfriend speaks with a lower voice.
"Momma's mad."
He looks at you only for a second and that was more than enough. The car got off the road and stopped right into a tree. Luckily, JJ slowed down when you screamed and that probably saved your life. You wanted to scream when you felt the impact, but you just couldn't and the three of you stayed in silence for a while, not knowing what to do.
"My mother is gonna kill me." You mutter for yourself and JJ opens his mouth, ready to say something to calm you down but you stop him with your index finger pointing at him. "And I'm gonna kill you."
I hate it when you stare.
"She really did that? Omg" You scream while laughing with the rest of the Pogues, leaning your head on Kie's shoulder as you can feel tears on your cheeks. Nights like these when you all are around a bonfire with cold beer and some weed, telling stories and jokes are your favourites. Even more than any party.
You catch JJ looking at you as lean your body towards him, smiling but still having some tears in your eyes. As you lock your eyes with his you can see something different glaring back at you. Something you don't know how to explain. Maybe awe? Adoration? Love?
"Why are you staring like that, you creep?" You say amused but only for him to hear and you bite on your lower lip as his fingers slowly grab a piece of your hair, moving it away from your face. Soft little gestures like this made you fall hard for him in just one month of relationship.
"You are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen."
You take a few seconds to realize what he just say to you only because you expected something like "you have something on your face" or "your laugh is ugly" because you are kind of insecure about it, but in his eyes you are the most beautiful girl. And not just outside, like most boys see you, but on the inside.
You can't say anthing because you get really emotional at his words, instead you just pull him into a kiss long and deep enough to hear disapproving shouts coming from your friends. You and JJ show them your middle fingers while smiling into the kiss, not ready to be apart yet.
I hate your big dumb combat boots...
"Come on, baby! Are you ready?" JJ screams for you to hear. He's been waiting in your living room, playing on the Playstation for what feels like hours. The others are already surfing without you by now and JJ loves to be the first onto the waves.
"Yeah, yeah. Sorry. Couldn't find my new bathing suit." You say and you know JJ will forgive you when he will see your new sexy black suit. You bought it especially for him.
"Can't wait to see it, but come on. We have to-..."
"Wait." You stop on the last step of the stairs and watch his combat boots. JJ groans because you're not hurrying to leave at all and you groan because he's still wearing them.
"Jay, can't believe you're wearing boots when there is a heat wave...Seriously. You are gonna sweat your ass off. " You mutter while coming closer to him, wearing your comfortable pink flip flops.
"The girl with flip flops is talking about my boots? You should keep your pretty big mouth closed."
"Or?" You ask and a smirk is quickly to rise on JJ's face. He knew you gonna say that.
"Or I will make sure to close it for you, baby."
...and the way you read my mind.
"Guys, you know what I'm craving sooo bad right now?" You yell out of nowhere, making John B jump in his place in the hammock. You are on your period and you've been a mess all day. The heat is already insupportable and the pain you feel in your lower stomach make it even worse for you as you lay on the porch's floor with a warm bottle on your stomach, hoping the pain will go away.
"What's that?" Kie asks, understanding your pain.
"Burgers and melon ice cream." You smile, thinking at your favourite ice cream flavor and your friends chuckle a little. Right now that's all you need: some ice cream and your boyfriend back from work.
"I will text JJ and he'll get you some. Okay?" Pope says with an amused grin and you nod your head, your smile fanding into a frown as you’re in pain again. "I forgot there is no signal."
You close your eyes, but after a few minutes of hearing them talking about the hurricane that was here days ago, you also hear a motorbike you can recognize it from anywhere. JJ got up from it and as he does the Pogue salute with John B, Pope and Kie you can see a bag in his other hand.
"Hello baby" You get up a little and manage to smile at him, ignoring the constant pain. He smiles back at you, placing a soft kiss to your forehead and your lips.
"Hello beautiful. How are you feelin'?" He asks because in the morning when he got up from work, you were still asleep and you stained the sheets. That didn't mattered to him, but he assumed that you are not feeling too good now. Periods are awful, he knows from Kie.
"The pain is killin' me and I wanted some..."
"Ice cream?" He raises his eyebrows to you and opens the bag, pulling out your favourite melon ice cream, some chocolate and burgers for all of you. Your friends are looking at you, all speechless and JJ saw it.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" He says, confusion all over his face.
"I just said I wanted ice cream and a burger..." You say and you almost forget about the pain because emotions take now control over you and your body. So much that you can feel tears in your eyes.
"You know me so well!" He pulls you into his arms, wrapping his arms around your body as he's softly kissing the top of your head.
"'Course I do. I got you, sweet girl."
I hate you much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme.
I hate the way you're always right.
"What a hell of a shortcut you knew, Pope! Thank you!" JJ says with a roll of his eyes and you look around, trying to recognize something but there are just trees. There's nothing you can actually recognize.
"Well, it was a good camping night guys." Kie says with sarcasm fulling her tone and everyone quickly starts arguing for nothing.
"Hey, hey! Chill out" You say, knowing this is going nowhere and you speak again after a short moment of thinking. "I think we have to go to the left."
"What? Bullshit. We have to go straight" Your boyfriend says and you put your arms in your hips, looking at him and already starting to get angry.
"No, I don't think so."
"I'm the best at orientation and-..." You just can't shup up so you interrupt him.
"Who ever said this, hm?"
"Well, actually no one. But I'm better than you anyway."
"Oh, bite me. We are going left."
"No, we're not."
And you should shut up right there because after a huge fight, you went straight and you find the camping spot.
After loading off the Van, JJ loosely grabs your shoulders and pulls you closer to him. A proud smirk on his lips as he's talking to you.
"Do you have something to say, [Y/N]? An apology maybe?"
You frown not wanting to do that, but when you try to move away from him, he pulls you even closer to his side.
"I can't hear you yet."
"Oh, shut up, you're enjoying this too much. You were right, okay?"
"Don't worry" He peck your pouting lips. "I still love your stubborn ass."
I hate it when you lie.
"JJ, tell me the truth. You did it?" You ask and you watch him impatiently, hoping to hear what you wanted and not be a lie. "You pulled the gun at Topper?"
He already lied to you a few days ago when it happened. You weren't there as you were stuck at a family dinner and later he didn't wanted to ruin the first night between you two. So he didn't told you what happened at the boneyard. Even if he knew you will eventually find out.
He just hoped it won't be that soon.
"Yeah, I did."
"Why would you lie to me, Jay?" You slowly ask and you take a step back, for the first time ever feeling really disappointed in him. He can see it on your face. He gets up from the stairs, trying to grab your hands in his, but you reject his gesture and you can see the hurt flashing in his beautiful eyes.
"Don't act like this, baby...Come on. It's not that big of a deal anyway."
"It's not? Do you really think that? Cause I think it is!" Your voice is higher by a tone and you don't want to turn this into a screaming match, so you just take another step back. "I need to calm down, okay? Don't call or text. I'll do it when I will get over it."
JJ said nothing as he's watching you leave the Chateau's backyard and he can't stop the feeling that he's letting you leave for good. But you said that you'll call.
And you will. He hoped so.
I hate when you make me laugh...
"Stop, stop it now please!"
Everyone who's hearing you right now would think that you are getting hurt or something. Thank God that John B doesn't have any neighbors because you are just begging JJ to stop tickling you as you laugh so hard you can barely breath properly.
... even worse when you make me cry.
"You want what?" You ask, your voice cracking even if you try so hard to keep yourself in one piece in front of him. You're pride is too important for you, but is getting hard to lock your tears in.
"A breakup. I'm sorry [Y/N], I really am but..." He looks away from you, trying to find his words and when he looks at you again, his eyes are watery too. How dare he? How can he be the one crying when he's the one taking the decision? "I don't feel good anymore. I feel like I'm caged up and I'm not that type of guy. I'll never be. I know that's what you wanted princess, but-..."
He didn't saw it coming, but that nickname made you slap him across the face. His head is now turn to the left, a red mark of your hand imprimed on his cheek.
"I guess I deserve that. But I can't be what you want and you know it...I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
You don't even realize that you are crying that hard, not until you hear yourself sobbing and gasping for air in front of him. His face is a blurry vision for you, you can't really see him anymore because of the waves of tears, the pain shattering you inside.
"No, shut up! You're not sorry. Don't sell me shit." You scream and you run your shacking fingers through your hair. You wipe your eyes with your palms, trying to stop the tears and instead you just ruined your mascara.
"Please, don't hate me."
Tears are wetting his cheeks as well and you simply can't stand there with him anymore. You shake your head, still watching him while you slowly take steps back. You need to get out of here before you fall apart for good in front of him. You can't be more pathetic than you already are, humiliating yourself for a guy when all you wanted to do was to love him.
"Don't hate me. Please, don't." He says again and you want so bad to scream that you do hate him for breaking your heart, but you can't. Your lips can't move as you just walk away, almost running with a hand to your mouth stopping a scream.
I hate it that you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call.
When you walked into the house with your hair and clothes soaked wet from the rain, your makeup smashed all over your face and your eyes puffy from all the crying, your mother already knew what happened. He wanted to say "I told you" because she really did told you that the Maybank boy is just trouble and you didn't listened to her. And as she hold you, she hoped that you didn't get to love him, that you will be fine after a few hours of sleep or a day or two. But now it's been two week and nothing could get you out of your room. Not even Kie and Sarah, your best friends.
You felt pathetic as you kept watching your phone screen, waiting for him to call you. To text you, to do anything to get to you. You even deleted his number, knowing you would want to call him and you did it anyway with a private number. He answered and you both stayed in silence for two whole minutes. He knew it was you and he was smiling with tears in his eyes. You didn't care that knew.
Listening to his silence was better than nothing at all. His absence was killing you.
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you.
You think that Kie, Sarah, Pope or John B are knocking at your door now, trying their best to get you out of the house. You went out with them for a few days for  a few hours while you know JJ was working and before you had to meet him, you would left. But you open your door now and you can't leave.
You don't know what to say. There's nothing to say as you both are looking at each other. You can see on him the same dark circles that you see everyday on you. You are wearing his shirt and he's wearing your hairband at his wrist. You blink a few times just to stop yourself from crying again.
"What are you doing here, JJ?" You ask after seeing that he's beating himself up to say something and he can't find his words.
"I-...I don't know." You can see how dilated and red his eyes are. He’s stoned and your heart sting at the thought of him being here only because of this, because he can't think straight.
"Okay." You want to close to door, but his combat boot got into your way stopping you. "What do you want from me? I gave you everything I had, I tried to be the best girlfriend and-...And it wasn't enough. What more can I give you beside myself, hm?"
Not even close...
"What?" JJ slowly ask, shocked to hear that you are thinking this way. All this time he was sure that you hate him, despite him and regret ever welcoming him into your perfect life only for him to ruin it, but you were doing the opposite.
You think that there's something wrong with you, not with his damaged ass. You think that you aren't good enough, when in fact you are more than he can handle. That's the problem: you are too much, too precious and too good and he's the dirty douchebag who just found a diamond and he doesn't know his true value, he doesn't know what to do with it. In JJ's point of view, that was your relationship like.
"Why wasn't I enough for you?" You voice crack and you fall, but JJ catches you into his arms before you can hit the floor. He walks into your house, holding you tight at his chest while taking a sit on the couch. That damn couch when he made love with you for the last time.
"You are enough, babe. You always were enough, but I'm not."
"Fuck you!" You scream while crying and you try to break his hug around your body, but there's no way he's letting you go away from him again. "How can you say that? Don't you see?"
"See what?" You raise your head from his chest, his fingers tracing lines on your cheeks. He wipes your tears and you do the same with his.
"You can't see that I don't hate you? I wish I could hate you. But I can't....
...not even a little bit...
"I'm not even close to that....
...not even at all..."
"You broke my heart into pieces and I can't hate you at all."
JJ is the one who's crying now. You never saw him like that before, not even after the worst fight with his father. Sobbing that hard while holding you tight, his head into your chest as he keeps repeat "I'm sorry" and "please forgive me".
"I've never been loved like this, [Y/N] and-...I kept telling myself that I don't deserve it, that you try to change me because you don't love the piece of shit I actually am and...And I almost lost you because of that."
“Don’t ever say that. You are amazing and you deserve love and happiness.”
You kiss the top of his head, his forehead and his salty lips before pulling his head back at your chest, both of you trying to calm down. This shouldn't happen, but you know that this is gonna bring you even closer to each other.
"Do you still love me? Like you did before." You ask with a little smile playing on your lips. JJ raise his head to look at you and his eyes speaks even before his lips.
"Yes. I'm crazy for you, [Y/N]." You both meet in a sweet kiss before he pulls away, his forehead pressed against yours. "Do you-...?"
"Yeah, I do. I do love you, JJ. You have no idea how much."

TEAM ZRCN ARC 4 - CHAPTER 8
Oh you thought there wouldn’t be a plan?
HELIA
Lunging forward, Helia performed a precise, downward strike against the blocks using her katana. As they slipped to one side, disturbed by the slash, she imagined that she had successfully dealt with a Grimm. One sure and precise cut, and the job was done.
Taking a step back, Helia wiped her brow and admired her work. Her form was getting better, and she seemed to be improving using just one katana. It had been some time since her second katana had been damaged back on Shizukana, but even now it still felt strange to no longer reach for two when jumping into battle.
"Impressive." A voice behind her commended.
“Oh, hello, Elio,” Helia smiled warmly as she turned to face the man. He was propped in the doorway to the training room watching her. “Have you been there long?”
“Only for a minute or two,” He responded. “I hope you don’t mind me watching you work.”
“Of course I don’t mind.”
Elio stepped further into the room. “You know, one day you and I ought to have a proper spar together,” He mused. “Though I confess I’d be a little scared of challenging you.”
“Scared?” Helia laughed. “Why would you be scared?”
“Because I’d think you’d kick my ass,” He confessed.
“Really?” Helia said, unable to hide her surprise. “Even with your tactical genius semblance?”
“Yes, even with my semblance.” Elio smirked, a flush of colour creeping over his cheeks. He cleared his throat with a cough. “I thought you were training with Calantha today?”
“I was supposed to be,” Helia confirmed. “The kids are still taking what happened to Parson pretty hard.”
“Can’t fault them for that,” Elio said. “What happened at Astrolabe, what they witnessed...it was rough.”
“It was rough for all of us,” Helia said, giving Elio a knowing glance. She reached out and touched him gently on the shoulder. “How are you and the rest of the Mob Ops holding up?”
“We’ve certainly been better,” Elio admitted. “However, given the circumstances, I’d say we’re doing pretty well. Admittedly, it probably helps that we've had work to keep us distracted.”
“Just don’t let it distract you forever,” Helia advised. Elio nodded his head but said nothing else, leaving Helia to gather together her things, and slip her jacket on before she left for the Oxford’s house again. She had nearly walked through the doorway when Elio’s voice drew her back.
“Do you think Wisteria would actually follow through on what she said?”
Helia stopped and turned back on her heel to look at Elio. He had a contemplative expression on his features - one which seemed out of place for someone who was usually so carefree and relaxed. “What do you mean?” She asked.
“Do you think she would truly help us and then willingly surrender if we let her help with the Rossis?”
“Honestly I can’t say for certain. To me it always felt like you have to take what she says with a grain of salt,” Helia responded. She glanced at Elio and raised a brow, curious why he had suddenly bought her up. “Why did you want to know?”
“Just curious, I guess,” Elio responded, shrugging slightly as he did.
Elio didn’t say much else after that, so Helia bid him farewell, leaving him alone in the training room. As she walked back to the Oxford’s house, her mind kept wandering back to what Elio had asked her. She couldn't understand why he brought Wisteria up. As far as she was aware, after the recent interview ZRCN had conducted, Wren was still awaiting confirmation from General Ironwood on how to proceed. Had something changed since then?
Helia continued to think about this all the way back to the Oxford's house. She hadn't been inside long, when Sera approached her.
"Hi, Helia," The young woman greeted, giving her a small wave. Helia returned the gesture, and then looked at the woman curiously. She hadn't seen much of Sera since they had all arrived some weeks ago. Prior to Mira's capture, she had spent most of her time with her, but since then she had been spending most of her time with her fiancé.
"I've been told to bring you to the others," Sera explained when she noted Helia's curious expression.
"The others?" Helia raised a brow. "Do I have time to get changed?" She gestured to the fact she was still wearing her athletic outfit.
"I don't think it'll take long," Sera said.
Helia hesitated for a moment before agreeing to follow, letting Sera lead her to where the others were waiting. They walked through a part of the house Helia had not been to as of yet, passing by portraits of members of the Oxford family both past and present. She recognised a younger Gorman and Nerissa painted on their wedding day, a full body portrait of an imperious looking man whose eyes seemed to follow her as she walked past, more portraits of Nerissa, and finally a large painting of a woman who at first glance Helia mistook for Neela on account of their similar appearances and they fact the woman was holding a trident. It was only on second glance that she recognised the woman in the painting was clearly meant to be someone else.
Sera eventually led her to a room that was tucked away through an alcove, which she explained was Gorman's office. Helia stepped inside and was surprised to find all of ZRCN, Calantha, and Caspian awaiting within.
"Well I'll leave you to it," Sera said, doing a little bow as backed out of the room. "I hope the conversation goes well."
“Why do I feel like I’ve just walked in on some top secret meeting?” Helia asked, looking around at the assembled faces once Sera had left.
“It’s not - “ Xanthos began to speak only to pause and reconsider his words. “Actually, no you’re right, that’s exactly what this is.”
"We needed to talk to you," Cordovan explained. "It's important."
"Okay..." Helia said warily, taking a seat opposite on the sofa opposite of where ZRCN and Calantha were squashed together. Helia cast a glance at Caspian who was pacing in front of his father's desk. "Do you know what this is about?" She asked him.
"Oh, I know and I'm not happy about it," Caspian responded sharply. Helia noted that Neela seemed to be the target of his ire rather than her.
"You're just mad because you can't come," Neela snarkily.
Caspian opened his mouth to say something back to his sister, but fearing an argument would derail the conversation before it had even begun, Helia was quick to intervene. "How about you all tell me what's going on before we start arguing with each other?" She suggested.
Caspian huffed a little at this, but for what it was worth, he remained quiet whilst Zelde and Cordovan took turns explaining why it was they had asked to speak with her. Once they had finished explaining everything and answering a few follow up questions Helia had, she found herself staring at them with a dumbfounded expression.
"So let me get this straight," Helia began, "you want to break Wisteria out of her cell and the six of you - including Cala - plan on escorting her to the Rossi's base to take them down by yourselves?"
"That about sums it up, yeah," Xanthos nodded.
"And you're doing this based on what - trusting Wisteria's word?"
Cordovan looked around hesitantly, before responding. "We were hoping the odd behaviour she displayed at the Porfirio's warehouse coupled with her reaction when we interviewed her implies she truly wants to help."
"That seems like a bit of a stretch.”.
"I told you so," Caspian said.
Neela glared at him. "Not the time, Cas."
"I don't see why I can't help you too," Caspian continued. "I can handle myself in a fight, Mira's my sister -"
"You're not a huntsman, Cas," Neela warned.
"If we're being technical the only person who is a licensed huntress in this room is Helia," Caspian said, gesturing towards her. "And considering she seems reluctant to go with you, you should take me in her place, as I think you’ll need all the help you can get."
"No, no, no," Helia cut him off with a wave of the hand. "I'll go."
"Despite what my brother says, you don't actually have to come with us," Neela said. "At most we'd need you to cover for us for a few hours whilst we get Wisteria out of here."
"I'll go." Helia repeated.
"Are you certain?" Cordovan pressed. "Like Neela said -"
"I'll go," Helia said for a third time, giving Cordovan a sharp glance which quickly cut him off. "I don't approve of this plan, if you can even call it that, but I'm not letting you go by yourselves. I saw what just two of them did to my team and we were graduated and fully trained - I don't want to see the five of you fall to a similar fate or worse."
"So where does that leave me?" Caspian asked.
Neela sighed. "Cas, I appreciate you wanting to help, but I think you'd be too much of a risk if you came with us," She said. "I don't deny you're a skilled fighter and can handle yourself in combat, but you've never experienced anything like this."
Caspian still seemed a little annoyed at being told he couldn't come, but he seemed to be cooling off. "I suppose if anyone comes asking, I could cover for you…" Caspian suggested. "I don't have much to do with the military myself, but I could keep our parents off your back for a while."
"That'd be great," Neela smiled.
"When were you thinking of going through with this?" Helia questioned.
ZRCN and Calantha shared a nervous look between them. 
"Tonight." Zelde answered.
"Tonight?" Helia repeated. "Are you serious?"
"You didn't tell me it would be so soon either," Caspian said with a shake of his head.
"The sooner we act the better," Zelde said. "We can't afford to wait for much longer. Callaway, Rosie, and Mira are depending on us. Highpoint is depending on us."
Helia considered Zelde's words for a long moment, before giving a determined nod. "Well, if we're doing this, we best get ready," She said. Helia slapped her hands against her thighs before rising to her feet. She still didn’t approve of this plan, but like hell would she let them do this alone. She would not have another fatal loss on her hands.
The time had come - the Rossis were going down.

Summary: Your first time with Hyungwon is not what you anticipated it to be. But you’re not exactly mad at it either.
Warnings: So sweet you’ll rot your teeth
A/N: This is a very, very, very, very late birthday fic and I’m so sorry @missyounights but hopefully it’ll make up for the long wait. Also, sorry not sorry for this entire drabble.
***********************************************
It wasn’t often when you got Hyungwon to yourself for the weekend. Between his constant traveling, touring, promotions and that’s not including all the recording and practicing he had as being part of a group. He was extremely busy, all the time and any spare moment he had was spent sleeping or catching up with friends and family…and you. You felt guilty, every single day, because you knew he was losing sleep, missing meals and neglecting family and friends to make time out for you. But you knew he was keeping his promise to you, the one he made last year after proposing.
“I‘m not the easiest to be around and I can‘t always be around, you deserve so much better than what I‘m offering you. But I promise to make it seem like I haven‘t left your side, like I‘m there with you every day, every night and listening to every mundane problem you have. Will you let me keep my promise, sunflower?”
It was so hard for you to imagine your life with Wonnie, not because he was hard to live with like he thought, but because you asked yourself every day what he saw in you of all people. You didn't have to have vision to know that Hyungwon was beautiful, handsome and just outright charismatic. But while you loved him and cared about him, you knew he was everything you weren't and that one day he'd wake up to that. He assured you all the time that he loved you, that everything different and unique about you is exactly what he was looking for. That didn't seem to ease any of the worries or doubts in your mind that he would eventually leave you for the next pretty girl who came around.
“What‘s that frown for?” Hyungwon asks, stepping out of your shared shower and walking into your bedroom wearing nothing but a towel. He was using another one to combat his dripping hair and wiping excess water off his chest and arms.
“I‘m still wondering why you‘re with me.” You answer, still mind blown about how hot he looks in front of you.
“You could have anyone you want Wonnie, why me?” You wonder aloud. Still not fully convinced that he’s in love with you like he says he is. You don’t think he’s lying, but he’s never really shown a physical interest in you. That you could tell anyway, even if he had you probably missed it with how oblivious you are concerning these things.
You start undressing to change into your pajamas, knowing you’re both going to bed after a long day of Netflix, food and naps. Hyungwon has been silent since your questioning and you wonder if tonight wasn’t the best night to ask. Then you feel his careful hands pull you down and lie you back onto the bed. You look up at him bewildered, not sure what to make of what he’s doing.
"Sunflower, when are you going to realize that you are everything I have been asking for?" His kisses are slow, precise and sweet as his chapped, plump lips make their way down your body. He starts from the underneath of your jaw and leaves a trail from your neck, down to your navel.
"You're so much more than your looks." Hyungwon looks up at you as he removes your sweatpants, sliding them down your ass, thighs, legs and finally your ankles before discarding them completely.
"If you won't believe my words, I'll have to prove my love to you." He whispers, sliding his hand inside your panties slowly while he hovers over you. His eyes look into yours with a gaze so strong you feel it go down your spine and rush straight to your core. Hyungwon kisses you softly, tenderly, with the slowest pace to not scare you. As you melt under him, he inserts his fingers inside of you, guiding them in a come hither motion while his palm brushes against your clit.
You moan into him, relaxing against his touch, your heart racing with every move he makes against you. You'd never envisioned your first time like this with Hyungwon. But the more he moved his fingers inside of you, the quicker his kisses against your lips go, the more you can't hold back against the feeling building up inside of you. You feel him insert a third finger and whine into his lips, he moans into your mouth, holding back everything inside of him.
He smelled like he always does when he’s just out of the shower, musky, sweet and like fresh fallen raindrops. His hair was still partly damp, the droplets falling onto your skin and disappearing as fast as they come from your combined body heat. You’d wanted it to be him for so long now, but there was never a right moment, or enough time to really do it right. For him to be your first meant everything to you, because he’d always been there, always took care of you and your dad’s medical bills. This was more than just sex, he was taking the time to learn your every touch, taste and move. Wonnie wasn’t just fucking you, he was making love to you and damn him for making it look so easy.
“Wonnie, I‘m gonna-” You start, your breath catching in your throat. The minute you opened your mouth he moved his fingers faster, pressing his palm against your clit as he did so. He knew you were there and pushed you past your breaking point. Your legs shook, back arched and toes curled into the sheet below you. A sound escaped you that you didn’t think you’d ever make and the look on his face as he watched you fall apart underneath him was enough to make you want to cry.
Hyungwon was smiling, not smirking, but genuinely smiling down at you and brushing away the stray hairs that fell into your face with his other hand. He leaned forward to kiss along your forehead and curve of your face. He kissed you slowly again, his fingers brushing along your folds, helping you to come down from your high. The “I love you’s” pouring out of him between every kiss into your mouth and making you warm from the inside out.
He pulled down your panties, kissing the new area he hadn’t been able to touch yet and removes the towel from his waist. You wanted him inside of you, but you weren’t sure how he was supposed to fit. He was most definitely going to hit your cervix and it dawned on you why he started with his fingers. This was something he thought about before hand and it made your heart do flips to think of him worrying about hurting you.
“I need you to tell me if I hurt you. Okay?” He asks, his eyes looking up at you from between your legs. His lips latching onto your clit and sucking as he inserts three fingers inside you and pushes down deeper. It was a dull pain, the stretching, but nothing you couldn’t handle with all this oversensitivity happening. You knew if he kept it up you’d orgasm again, trying to speak was impossible with all the moans and high pitched squeaking you were doing.
Once he had you wet enough he slid you further down the bed, your right leg bent at the knee and spread as he held it. He lifted your left onto his shoulder and slowly slid himself inside of you, taking it inch by inch. His fingers, while amazing, did nothing to prepare you for him. With him just barely inside you were already so tight around him, there’s no way he was going to fit in completely.
He stopped halfway and moved slowly in and out of you, brushing along your clit with his thumb to help even out the pleasure and pain. Fuck, even with his size he felt so good. Against your better judgment you lifted your hips more to help push him deeper, a sharp gasp escaped you and he stops.
“Are you okay? Do you need me to stop?” He asks, running his hand along your inner thighs in an attempt to soothe you.
“Hyungwon, I don‘t care if it hurts me, I need you to keep going and not stop, please. You feel too good to go at the pace you are.” You beg, your hand running along his arm, pulling it closer to you. Inside you, you feel him twitch and moan softly at the feeling. He bends down to kiss you and then proceeds to move at a normal pace, still only halfway inside you.
Together you move in a comfortable rhythm, your breath and his synchronizing, his heart is pounding just as loudly as yours is. You didn’t know how much longer you’d hold with him, but you wanted so badly to release together. Your eyes lock with his and as if he’s reading your mind he nods. You’d never cursed much in your life, but the way he felt and was making you feel currently had you saying words you’d forgotten.
There it was again, that spring in your stomach ready to snap at any moment. Your toes already curling and back arching underneath him as he held you closer. You could feel him inside pulsating with you and his movements not as fluid as before, losing himself in the feeling just like you. Both of you start moaning, loudly, you’re practically screaming as you hold onto his back and forearm. You couldn’t understand why he felt so good or how you both had gone on so long without taking this step.
As you both catch your breathe, he’s still restraining himself and you know he’s in his head about something. To try and ease his mind you play with his hair, massaging the base of his neck where his head and neck meet. You’re thanking him, over and over again as you lean forward and kiss his forehead, muttering “I love you‘s” into his hair. Wonnie looks at you with an unrecognizable expression and then pulls himself out of you to slide back in between your legs.
The smirk playing on his lips as he gently spreads your folds and fixates on the mess you’ve both created, sends a chill through you. Wonnie wasn’t done with you yet and there was a part of you that was excited for it.

Post Insane! Sephiroth X Black girl! Reader
Tumblr media
𝒪𝓃𝑒 𝓌𝒾𝓃𝑔, 𝓈𝒾𝓁𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝓁𝑜𝒸𝓀𝓈 pt.3
Part 2
Part 1
Warning: SUPER fucking cheesy! And I’m a relatively new FFVII fan so some of my wordings might be kind of weird. But if you want more content like this from me, just hit the heart!
Also, I’ve changed some of the events in the storyline. Avalanche hasn’t attacked Shinra just yet! But Sephiroth has already had his insane streak.
Context: Zack & Cloud set Y/N up on a blind date w/ Seph! Here, we will discover an interesting history between Seph and the reader as well as witness their adorable date!
———
We continued on, running like kids to the closest battle destination. We chuckled while running, letting the wind breeze through our hair. And must I say, he is so gorgeous when the wind blows pushes his hair from his face.
We finally reached a point in the woods near a camping site. For a minute, I caught my breath while he just stood there, unbuttoning his shirt.
“Are..you not tired?”
“Not at all. My vitality is no joke.” By the end of his sentence, he was shirtless.
My eyes couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Is this a fucking ten pack?? He was unbelievably ripped.
“You’re not about to go all sexy beast on me, are you?”
He frowned. “No, no, no. Hey I’m a modest man. I would never do this on the first date to a beautiful, deserving woman like you.”
He lifted his suspenders over his shoulders and pulled over his coat with their astonishing, silver pauldrons.
I smirked. “In that case..”
I unbuttoned my dress, teasing him. The man who is always comfortable with a straight, unchanged face began blushing, nervously.
Next, I started sliding it down my slim and fit figure.
He turned around immediately, being respectful.
“No need, honey.”
He turned around again slowly.
Under the black & silver dress were my fighting clothes. My leather shorts were exposed while I slid on my black gloves.
The transformation made him speechless.
“I-I... ah”
“Sephiroth??”
“Your outfit is different from the last time we spoke.”
“Yeah, a girls gotta grow up right?”
“But, an outfit this sexy?”
“And just as affective!”
“Marry me now.”
“Now, hold your Chocobos, Simperoth! Like you said to me that night, “If we were to have a relationship, I need to have a good fighter and a good kisser. If you fail at one thing, you must perfect the other. Otherwise, we never know what could be.”
He made a determined smile with challenged eyes.
“You better prove yourself, right here, right now.”
He got into position, and so did I. The time was now for him to really earn my heart.
He ran swiftly toward me, clashing his sword against mine. I blocked it instantly and ducked, as I saw his next swing coming right before me. I kicked him off his feet and got right back up and over him, aiming my masamune over his face.
I retrieved it back to my shoulder and helped him get up.
“Hmm, I see you’ve gotten much better.” He said.
“Yup. Round two?”
“That wasn’t even a round.”
“Technically, it was.”
We went at it again. I ran his way while he came toward me. I hit his sword in and undercut motion, making him have more force on top. Trying to get from under his grip, I leaned to the right.
His blade almost caught my feet but I jumped up in time, and slid mine under his chin.
“You’re good. Very, very good.” He informed. His eyes had narrowed, indicating a bit of arousal.
“Are you... turned on?” I asked, giggly.
“Quite likely.”
We continued once more. He extended his blade to the ground to catch me off guard. Instead, I ran on his thin blade and jumped over his head, landing perfectly to aim at his back.
With quick movements, he turned around and pressed his masamune over mine again. The pressure was quite strong as his was longer than mine.
I fell to my knees with a little pout of failure.
He extended his hand in front of me. I grabbed his and he kissed mine.
“Round 3?”
“Yeah, yeah.” I rolled my eyes.
It started with me lunging at him. He blocked it by pushing me away with his blade. I ran back and clashed my sword with his at different angles. This went on for a while until I jumped high, hitting his blade with an over head attack.
He hit mine back at a lower angle, pushing my blade up too high for me to reach. It eventually slipped out of my hands and fell tip forward into the soft grass and dirt. Panicking, I ran to retrieve it while he ran after me.
I wanted him to win but I also wanted to prove myself.
I gripped the sword quickly and securely with Sephiroth not too far behind. Our swords clashed some more. The battle was getting more intense. Suddenly, he lifted his foot and did a roundhouse kick. I ducked, eyeing his every move. While getting back up, I met his shiny masamune in my face while my purple one also clashed with his perfectly.
It was one of those moments where both of our forces were strong so our swords stayed in place as we held cocky, love driven stares.
In no time, I was unexpectedly being lifted off the ground and up in the air. He was flying with his wing, tightly holding my waist.
“S-seph, you’re cheating.”
He just ignored me, while still flying until he reached a spot in the clouds that he felt was perfect.
“It’s not cheating if I already have your heart.”
“That’s-“
I got cut off by the feeling of his tender lips, melting into mine and fitting perfectly. He tightened both arms around my waist, making sure I wasn’t scared and ensuring comfort.
He tucked my hair behind my ear and bit my lip, asking for tongue access. I agreed and we were making out just like that night seven years ago. Except this time, there is more passion and desire. More hunger to be together. I felt the connection.
Our lips parted at once. We were still in the sunset with clouds surrounding.
We stared in each other’s eyes, lost in our minds. Until I finally spoke.
“Wow...”
He instantly laid his head on my shoulder, hugging me tighter. I could feel all his pain from the past few years up to this moment.
He lifted his head up and then started kissing my neck. Then that led to sucking and biting. I couldn’t keep my mouth shut from his actions. It all felt too good. I was moaning like crazy.
He finally ceased.
And I was honestly amazed at his work.
“You really are the full package.” I stroked his ego.
He chuckled and smirked. “For the record, back then, you were a really good kisser. I just had to get my kissing together.”
I blushed at his words. “Well, you certainly did. I wanted more.”
“I heard. Can’t wait to hear how you sound when you’re under me-“
“Seph!” I giggled shyly as he flew us back down.
“But that’s for another day. I just wanna take my time with you and treat you right.”
“I love you.” I said right out.
“I love you more. Gaia, you don’t know hold long I’ve been wanting to say that!” He stressed.
He took me on home, as this was the final destination wrapping up our date.
“I had a lot of fun with you, tonight. I’m glad we did this.” I told him.
He nodded. “Me too. What should our next date be?”
We strolled through the small crowd of people in the SOLDIER dorm territory.
I could hear in the background that some people were freaking out and gossiping because it was Sephiroth. But I guess they figured not to interrupt since he was being normal and minding his business.
Until one guy interrupted...
“Hey! Sephiroth! You’re not supposed to be out here if you’re not a SOLDIER! Why don’t you just leave and go be an evil bastard somewhere else!”
I stood there, waiting for something to pop off immediately afterward. Thus, Seph just stood there, brushing it off. His only reply was, “You see me minding my business, so mind your damn own.”
The man was taken aback. With one more threatening glare from him, the man ran off.
“I suppose you keep training. Your combat is shit from what I remember!” He yelled jokingly.
We laughed up until we reached my dorm with Zack. Cloud hung out here sometimes even though he’s an ex- SOLDIER.
With three knocks from me, blond, spiky streaks of hair fell above me.
“Hey, Cloud!”
“Hey, how was your date?” He questioned, glaring at Sephiroth a bit.
“It was divine! I loved every second.” I explained while Seph tightened his grip around my waist.
“And you?” Cloud asked again, hinting a Sephiroth’s quietness.
“I loved it just as much, if not more. She has charms and a personality that I can’t resist.”
I turned around hugging him fully before going inside. He said goodnight to us all after small-talk with Cloud.
The night ended quite pleasantly. I didn’t expect this but I’m so not mad at it. I can’t wait to be enveloped in his warmth as each day goes by.
Once I settled in, Zack couldn’t stop asking questions. He wanted to know everything we did and said. Cloud wanted to know as well even though he pretended he didn’t care.
After all of that, we watched movies and headed for Midgar in the morning. The next day, I’d be an ex-SOLDIER and Sephiroth’s woman.
“Umm...Y/N??”
“What?”
“Is that a hickey???”
“Maybe???” I smirked.
Oops.

hello! can i get a ahk x reader where the museum has a new exhibit with an ancient king from what ever culture, just around ahk’s age, and when he comes to life he hits on the reader, who is very flustered and ahk gets jealous and he and the other guy end up duking it out for y/n’s affection? school’s been super frustrating and i really need something fun and playful rn. thanks!
notes: hi! totally get the whole stressed thing with school. it aint fun but hopefully this helps you a little :)
He'd known you for much longer. Far longer than that ratted King had – but still, you spoke happily with him, smiling and giggling as though it was all a little game, and it was. Just not to Ahk. You were far too important to him to have the whole situation be considered nothing more than a game.
Standing in the corner, he watched the new exhibit speak, his words soft as he looked up to you with a reverence Ahk had shown many times before. The King, who went by the name of Otanes, had recently arrived from a museum in Europe, where they held an exhibit for old Persian kings. Otanes fit the description for any rich-kingdomed ruler; tall and handsome, with enough charisma to overthrow a government should he wish. Ahk was not like that. Perhaps that was what irked him most – he wasn't like Otanes at all, and you seemed to like the King quite a bit. After all, Otanes actually had a decent sized rule, while Ahk was King for only a day and a half.
It didn't help that you couldn't move, either. What with the whole actually being a painting made by Maoli people many, many years ago, no one had bothered to try and enter the stone you came from. You were startlingly clear next to the images of birds and trees – startlingly beautiful in the red stone.
Despite his feelings towards you, a bitter taste fell on his tongue when you smiled, the softest of blushes coating your cheeks as Otanes complimented the flowers in your hair. Ahk had been meaning to do that; he hadn't yet built up the courage to compliment you so directly, and the thought of Otanes stealing that opportunity from him had anger welling up deep in his chest.
"Ahk!" You called for him, your voice soft and his name welcome on your tongue.
He perked up, finding you waving him over, and Otanes looking rather sour. The tiniest of smirks came to him at that. He joined the two of you, standing side by side with Otanes.
"Why were you off sulking in the corner?" You asked with a small smile, your attention now fully on him. He knew it didn't mean anything, but a happiness began to sprout in him – you had a habit of doing that to him.
"Just.. enjoying the view," he answered cryptically.
"Well, Otanes is very handsome," you said, and every ounce of happiness you gave him curdled, his left eye twitching in irritation.
"Thank you," said Otanes with a small bow to you. "I'd say you're far easier on the eyes than I."
Stupid Otanes with his stupid words.
You flushed red, attempting to stutter out a reply. When you couldn't manage one you looked to the floor, the ghost of your laugh still on your lips, and your blush still prominent even on the stone.
"Actually, I had a question for you," Ahk interrupted, coming up with his sentences on the fly. "Do you remember any of your time in Hawai'i?"
"Not really," you answered seriously, "but I do remember the prayers people gave me. I still get them sometimes... I'm always listening for them."
"That's fascinating," Ahk said before Otanes could say anything.
Throughout the entirety of the conversation Otanes kept circling back to your beauty, complimenting and flirting with you till you could barely speak over your bashfulness. At least Ahk was trying to hold a regular conversation – this Otanes didn't care at all for things like that. He could tell that; he just wished you could, too.
He held himself together for a good long while, but all that buildup of irritation and anger burst when Otanes decided to remark on your legs of all things. Even if he had a good point, it was a weird thing to comment on, and you were clearly getting more and more uncomfortable. Ahk hadn't quite planned on punching anyone in the fact that day, but since the situation called for it he took great amusement in watching Otanes get a nosebleed from his fist.
"I don't think I've met anybody as bad at taking a hint as you are," Ahk said when Otanes sat up, looking up at him with an angered eye.
"Funny. I was about to say the same thing about you," Otanes spat back.
That was the general situation as you watched with wide, frantic eyes as Ahk attempted to punch the living shit out of Otanes. You knew a lot about Ahk – he spoke to you often, and you knew he was trained in hand-to-hand combat, but it didn't stop you from worrying about the both of them. It seemed a foolish thing to argue over to you. After all, they were both only making conversation, right?
"Would you two stop it?!" You yelled when Otanes rolled the both of them over, now pinning Ahk down with his fist raised to land a direct punch at his head.
"(Y/N) –"
"No, I'm mad at both of you," you said when Ahk tried to say something. "What are you even fighting about?!"
They both paused, looking at each other before looking back to you, confusion lacing their gaze.
"You don't know?" Otanes asked, his grip on Ahk's collar still tight in his fist.
"Oh my Gods," Ahk muttered beneath his breath, relaxing his head backwards, astounded by your lack of clarity. A small, amazed smile came to him. Gods, you were endearing.
"It's – we're fighting for you," Otanes tried to explain, but the confusion on your face only grew worse.
"I don't want you fighting though?"
"We're fighting for your hand," Ahk finally said, loud enough to echo in the mostly-empty room of your exhibit.
Silence.
"What's wrong with my hand?" You asked, looking to him then back at your hands.
"Listen, there's a very simple solution to this, I think. Just go along with me (Y/N)," Otanes said, watching for your approving nod which came a few seconds later. With you on board, he asked, "which one of us do you like more?"
"Like... who do I enjoy talking to more?" You asked for clarification.
"Sure," he said.
"I like you both plenty," you said, beginning to fidget. "I.. I've known Ahk longer, but that doesn't really mean anything... um.."
"Doesn't Otanes make you pretty uncomfortable?" Ahk asked, sprouting another blush on your cheeks. "He says some pretty demeaning things."
"I do not!"
"Well... a little," you mumbled before the two of them could return to fighting.
"See?" Ahk said with a winning smirk. With your permission granted he fought back, forcing Otanes off his body and shoving him out of the room.
Once assured he wouldn't return, Ahk resumed his position in front of you, a sweet smile replacing the resentment so obvious just a couple minutes ago.
"Sorry about that whole thing," he said, watching your expression carefully.
"It's alright. Thank you for noticing, though. I didn't want to say anything," you said in a soft mumble, tracing your fingertip over your thigh.
"Of course," he murmured, reaching his hand to place it on the stone where your own hand lay.
To his surprise he found no purchase – rather, his eyes widened, watching his hand fade into the dark stone of the large tablet, the outline of his skin nothing more than charcoal. You gasped in surprise, backing up with eyes just as wide as his. Slowly he continued, letting himself enter the stone, where he turned into a painting like yourself, this time able to see you in 3D. He knew you were beautiful, but now that he was able to touch you your beauty seemed insurmountable. His mouth hung parted slightly as he reached for you, touching your skin for the first time. In silence he entwined his fingers with yours, staring at where you ended and he began, oblivious to the people watching the painting outside, oblivious to the other drawings. All that he saw was you – your hand in his, the flowers in your hair.
Tugging slightly, he pulled you to your feet, thoughtlessly leading you out of the black and white and into the real world, where he still had yet to notice the several people watching the two of you. The corners of your lips perked up, widening into a brilliant grin as your fingertips began to turn to color.
"Ahk," you murmured, your voice nothing more than a breath, captivated by the dark skin covering your once-stone form.
The moment you took your last step you fumbled, tripping and landing with your face pressed up against Ahk's chest, your hands on his shoulders to stabilize yourself. You went into another fluster, apologizing profusely and trying to back up. He didn't mind, though – he never would, and he held his hands in yours, trying to keep you calm even though his own mind was hectic with thoughts. He hadn't ever expected to genuinely touch you in any point in his life, or death, if he wanted to be realistic.
"What a happy couple," came the sarcastic voice of Larry, his hands on his hips as he watched the display. Instantly your cheeks turned a blazing red once more, and you looked away, adamant to not meet Larry's eye.
"Larry," Ahk greeted him, "we found out something new about the paintings."
"Obviously. Can you help me with the Huns now?"
"Do I have to?" Ahk grumbled, still eager to keep you close to him as possible.
"They're trying to rip Otanes' legs off again, I think that's a little more important than your love-fest," Larry said with a dry laugh.
Ahk looked at you, then back at Larry.
"I don't think I'll be of much help tonight."

A very uncommon name
This is the first prompt of Soulmate September . @tsshipmonth2020
Prompt: “Your soulmate’s name is written on your wrist/palm”
Human, High School AU
Pairings: Romantic Prinxiety, Familial Creativitwins, Platonic Dukexiety, Background Romantic Demus
Warning: Kissing, Self deprecating, Bit of swearing (F word)
Next
‘Virgil ’ 
That was the name written in purple on Roman’s wrist for all his life. A very uncommon name if you were to ask him. ‘Why?’ you may ask, well it’s because Roman never met a person with that name yet, and trust him, he tried.
All his life, since he could remember, he tried finding someone with that name, to no use. He always tried to learn the name of every person he met, which was not that hard, considering he lived in a small town, but none of them were named Virgil.
By the time he and his brother got to high school, he kind of gave up on finding his soulmate, but Remus didn’t. 
That’s how he ended up in this situation, with Remus gushing about his soulmate, whose name was Janus, that he met while at a football match at the high school of the neighbouring city. By this point Roman zoned out.
“- and we went to a small diner to get some food, and then Janus’ cousin from England called, his name is Virgil, and he said-”
That got Roman’s attention “Wait, wait, wait. Did you say Virgil? As in ‘the name of my soulmate’ Virgil?”
“Uh yeah, it’s the same name, but I didn’t ask about his soulmate. I didn’t want to be too invasive. Anyway, Janus’ cousin said that he is moving to America. And guess what? He and his family are moving in our town”
“No way! I can ask him then. When is he coming?”
“I think in a few weeks, I’m not sure. I didn’t ask for details, I was busy with - ”
“Do not finish that sentence" Roman said in a threatening way.
----
A few weeks passed, and Roman finally heard the kids in school talking about the new kid, which was a big thing.
Roman’s new mission, find the new kid, which turned out to not be as hard as he thought. Virgil was in Roman’s math class, and just as luck had it, the only spot left in class was to be Roman’s desk mate. 
During the class, Roman kept glancing at Virgil’s wrists. He thought he wasn’t noticed, until Virgil had enough and finaly snapped at Roman in a hushed tone.
“What do you want?”
“I was just - I - I just wanted to see something” Roman stuttered 
“And what might that be?” Virgil was now glaring at Roman
“Well-”
“Boys! You two can finish that discussion when class is over. Pay attention!” The teacher snapped
They turned back to their work.
When the bell rang, Roman grabbed Virgil’s arm, before he could leave the class “Please come with me. I have to tell you something”
“Will you leave me alone after that?”
“If that’s what you want, then yes” Roman dragged him out of the classroom, to one that was completely empty.
“I think you’re my soulmate” Roman rushed out without waiting a single moment.
“Uh... look mate, you seem like a nice guy, but you’re not my soulmate”
“Just let me see your wrist” Roman huffed.
“Fine” Virgil pulled up his sleeve.
“Ha! I knew it!” Roman cheered.
“You’re my soulmate... What the heck, universe?!”
“Not the reaction I was hoping for...”
“Look, Roman,” Virgil sighed “you seem like a nice person, but you are not my type. This is a mistake”
“The universe doesn’t make mistakes, Virgil, at least give me a chance. We could get to know eachother, and if you still don’t want me to be your soulmate, I will leave you alone."
"Promise?" Virgil asked skeptically.
"I promise. Just give me one chance. Just a few weeks" Roman pleaded.
"Fine. You have two weeks. Don't make me regret it" And with that Virgil grabbed his things and left the classroom.
----
For the next two weeks, Roman would keep leaving gifts for Virgil, and if Virgil smiled and blushed the tiniest bits every time, it was his problem, and his problem alone. It's not like he kept all of them on the dresser in his room, without letting anyone touch them. No. Of course not.
In addition to the gifts, Roman would also throw in random rounds of twenty questions at lunch "To get to know eachother better" he would always say, and Virgil couldn't help but play along. It was ado- annoying in a fun way, if you were to ask him.
Right now, Virgil managed to get a break from Roman, and hang out with his cousin and his soulmate, who also happened to be Roman's brother.
"So" Janus started "How are things going with Roman?"
"As good as they can go. He keeps trying to make me like him, but..." Virgil trailed off.
"But?" Remus asked.
"But what if I'm not good enough for him. He's a nice person. He doesn't deserve to be stuck with someone like me for the rest of his life" He brought his knees up to his chest "He's kind and funny, and talented, and - and cute, and I'm... me"
"You're a fucking idiot" Remus said "Roman has been gushing about you since he even knew you were coming here - it's making me sick to be honest - and you think he wouldn't want to be with you?"
"Remus is right - surprisingly - you should really give this relationship a chance. I'm sure you won't regret this."
"I hope... Because I kind of have a date with him tonight" Virgil mumbled.
"Then tell him. Now come on" Janus pulled him off the bed "It's already 5pm. Go take a shower and me and Remus will pick an outfit for you that doesn't look like you just came from a funeral" He pushed Virgil into the bathroom without leaving room for argument.
----
Half an hour later Virgil peaked his head out of the bathroom, only for Janus to push an outfit into his arms and push him back inside.
"J, Remus, I don't think this outfit is a good idea" He shouted through the door after taking one look at the outfit.
"Just try it on. Trust us, you will look hot as hell" Remus shouted back.
Virgil resigned himself to his faith and put the outfit on, then walked out of the bathroom. He was dressed in black ripped jeans, with a purple crop top and a leather jacket on top of it. A pair of black combat boots was waiting for him by his bed.
"Good. Now sit" Janus instructed, pointing to a chair.
Virgil sat down and Janus started working on his makeup, while Remus worked on his hair.
They both pulled away from Virgil and high fived, right as the door bell rang.
"Well looks like your future boyfriend is here." Remus said "Have fun making out."
"We won't do that Remus" Virgil pulled his boots on, then Janus pushed him out of the room.
Virgil walked to the front door, took a few deep breaths, then opened it. "Hi..."
"Hey, Virgil. Are you ready to go?" Roman asked. He was wearing jeans, with a red button up shirt and red shoes.
"Yeah, but where are we going?" V asked.
"That's a surprise. Now come on." Roman gently took Virgil's hand and brought him to his car, opening the passanger door for him, before going and getting into the driver's seat.
----
Five minutes of driving later, they were pulling into the parking lot of the park.
Roman got out of the car and hurried to open the door for Virgil, then went and got something out of the trunk.
"A picnic?" V asked.
"Uh... Yeah. I know you don't like crowded spaces, so I thought this would be a good first date...Do you not like it?" Roman asked, sounding a bit unsure.
"It's perfect." Virgil smiled "Thank you."
"Oh ok. Come on. I know the perfect spot." Roman took Virgil's hand again and took him to the top of a hill, where they could see the sunset. He let go of Virgil's hand then layed out everything he brought.
----
After they ate a bit and making a bit of small talk, they were just sitting and watching the sunset.
Virgil was biting his lip anxiously, which Roman noticed.
"Is everything ok?" He asked "Is it the picnic? Was it too much?"
"I was just thinking." Virgil answer without looking at Roman.
"About?" Roman asked.
Virgil thought for a few seconds, then, before he could chicken out, turned and kissed Roman, which Roman returned after a few seconds.
When they pulled away, Roman was smiling "Well not the answer I was expecting, but I'm not mad that this happened. Does this mean you don't hate me anymore?"
"Hate you? Princey I never hated you. I just thought... I thought that I wasn't good enough for you. You're the perfect popular guy and I'm just the emo."
"Virgil, you're not just the emo. Not to me. These two weeks I got to know you, and you're more that your looks. You're snarky and sassy and funny and just so adorable. I really can't even put into words how cute you are. I- I love you, and I want to be your boyfriend, only if you want this too."
Virgil giggled "Are you kidding me? Of course I want to be your boyfriend!"
Roman smiled and kissed him again.
----
He may have gotten home and started ranting about the date to Remus, but that's entirely his problem. He was just happy he finally found his soulmate.

Hey! Happy new year, I see your requests are open so, don't mind if I do? If it's not so much of a bother, I'd like to start my new year with quality head cannons for Shoto, Katsuki and Shinsou with a jealous s/o? Sksksksks, if this is too much you're free to ignore it ♡.
A/N: I would like to apologize for how late these are coming out. I didn’t realize this as I was writing them, but I wrote them as whole ass scenarios and by the time I realized my mistake it was too late. Anyways I hope you enjoy these month late jealousy scenarios.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jealousy Comes in Many Different Forms
Tumblr media
Shoto
Todoroki is...a little dense, so he doesn’t always know when something makes you upset or feel inadequate.
He’s never been in a relationship before you, and you make him kind of flustered, so his initial reaction was to not give you compliments or little praises when you first started dating. He didn’t want to over-step his boundaries, afterall.
He didn’t expect you to distance yourself from him when it happened. It was during training when he was sparring with Midoriya. As they fought he kept commenting on how well the boy used his quirk and how he had really made it his own. And you were fine with that. The two of them were friends after all, and friends like to lift each other up.
What bothered you was when he did the same with Yaoyorozu, and he even had the audacity to show Ashido how to better use her quirk by adjusting her shoulders and arms.
You felt bitter watching this from the side lines where you were stretching. Yes you’re friends with both of the girls, but Ashido isn’t shy in hiding that she has a little crush on Todoroki. As you watched him smile at them and compliment their skills, you felt so twisted up in your gut.
By the time it was your turn to spar with your boyfriend, you decided to go all out, plus ultra, to impress him. You were ready to wow not only him, but your entire class and your teachers as well.
“You ready to get your ass kicked?” you asked, taking him off guard. You used this as an opportunity to get up close with him, using your close combat skills. You put everything you had into that fight, showing off the ultimate moves you were working on in the process.
You managed to dodge his ice and fire attacks, and you smiled at the chorus of your peers cheering you on. The sparring session ended after fifteen minutes. Neither of you managed to immobilize the other person, but by the time the match was over both of you were panting and dripping with sweat.
“Good match,” you said through pants, smiling as you patted your flushed face with a towel.
“Yeah,” Todoroki said. “You too.”
That’s all he had to say. No “you were amazing out there” or “the way you dodged my attacks was incredible.”
You felt that kink in your stomach all over again, and you decided it was best to distance yourself from Todoroki for at least the rest of the day. He clearly wasn’t impressed with you in any case, so why should you bother giving him the time of day?
“Did I do something wrong?” he asked you that night. You were lounging on the couches in the common room reading a book. “Because it kind of seems like you’ve been ignoring me since we sparred today.”
You put your book down and looked up at him. The least you could do was offer him an explanation, afterall. “I want you to look at me the way you look at Midoriya and Yaoyorozu and, hell, I guess Ashido.”
He quirked his eyebrow up at you. “What do you mean?”
“I get that you probably don’t realize what you’re doing, but when I see you praising our peers, my friends, and don’t even bat an eye at me I feel inadequate.” You looked up at him. “I don’t want to be pushy and I don’t want to ask too much of you, but is it too much for me to ask you to let me know that I’m doing a good job and that you’re proud of me?”
Shocked is one way to describe how Todoroki looked. He wasn’t expecting you to come out and say all of that. “I’m sorry,” he said. “I guess I didn’t really think about how that would have made you feel.”
You cocked your head to the side, waiting for him to say more.
“I’ve never been in a relationship until now, and you still make me very nervous,” he admitted. “I didn’t know what to say after we sparred because I was just so amazed by you. Not only that you’re a magnificent fighter, even better than me, but because you reciprocate my feelings and that is something that has never happened before.”
You rolled your eyes at the last part. “Most of the girls at this school would kill to date you,” you said.
He sat down next to you on the couch. “But none of them are you.” He hesitated a moment before putting his arm around your shoulder.
You snuggled into his side, no longer mad at him. “Thank you,” you said. This is definitely something the two of you would need to work on, but you were happy and willing to work on it together.
Tumblr media
Katsuki
Bakugo is usually the one to get jealous in your relationship.
But it always felt like he put his training, and even sometimes his friends, before you.
You didn’t mind at first because you were all determined to become one of the top heroes, and the only way to do that is to keep training your quirks.
It did bother you, though, when you got stood up on your three month anniversary so he could spar with Kaminari and Kirishima.
You were waiting outside his room for twenty minutes. He hadn’t answered any texts you sent him or the times you knocked on his door. You had a bad feeling that he wasn’t coming out of his room, and you questioned whether or not he was actually at the dorms, but your suspicions were confirmed when Midoriya saw you sitting out in the hall.
“I’m sorry, (Y/n),” he said. “I saw Kacchan leave with Kirishima and Kaminari earlier.”
You felt defeated. Why didn’t he want to spend time with you? Why would he bail on the night that you’ve been talking everyone’s ear off nonstop for the last week?
“Is there something wrong with me?” you asked Midoriya.
“Of course not!” he said. “Kacchan has just always been a bit obsessed with being number one. It’s not that he doesn’t want to be with you. He probably doesn’t even recognize what he’s doing.”
“Thank you,” you said. Talking to Midoriya helped, but you still felt bitter towards Bakugo, and you were mad at Kirishima and Kaminari too.
You didn’t sit with your boyfriend at lunch the next day. Instead, you sat with Midoriya, Uraraka, and Iida, since Midoriya helped you the previous night.
Bakugo was not happy with the new friends you seem to have made. “What the hell is this?” he asked. He managed to catch you alone between lunch and class.
“Look,” you said. “If you get to bail on our three month to hang out with your friends then I get to eat lunch with mine.”
“What are you talking about?” he asked. “Our three month isn’t until Friday.”
You felt your blood boil. How could he forget? “No,” you said, starting to shake out of anger. “It was Wednesday.”
Bakugo’s expression dropped. Color began to drain from his face. He knew how much this day meant to you and he completely forgot about it. He rubbed his hands over his face, trying to think of ways to make it up to you.
“You know what, just forget about it,” you said. “Three months isn’t that long anyways it doesn’t need a fancy celebration or anything.” You slung your bag over your shoulder and walked back to the classroom.
You had a bitter feeling in your stomach for the rest of the day, and you could barely bring yourself to talk to Bakugo as he tried cornering you after class.
“Come on why won’t you just talk to me about it?” he said. Your peers thought it would be a good idea to leave the two of you alone after that. They all either sped forward towards the dorm or stayed back to “talk to Aizawa about school work” which you knew was a lie.
“I don’t want to talk about it because I know you’re not going to take me seriously!” you practically shouted at him. Your hands were gripping the sides of your school blazer as your arms were wrapped around your stomach.
“What you do you mean I won’t take you seriously?” Bakugo asked.
“Because this isn’t the first time something like this has happened.” Your voice began breaking in places but you willed yourself to keep looking into his crimson eyes which were beginning to soften with every second that passed by.
You didn’t want to risk setting off any pent up anger he held, either to you or Deku or anything going on in his life, so you chose your next words very carefully. “I feel,” you started, “like you don’t take me seriously, and like you put your friends before me.”
Bakiugo gulped but he waited for you to finish.
“I don’t want you to think that you have to give up your friendships for me, believe me that’s the last thing I want.” You took a shaky breath in. “But I want you to spend time with me the same way you do with your friends. I want you to value our relationship the same way you value training with Kirishima and Kaminari. And I don’t think that’s too much for me to ask of you.”
When Bakugo was sure that you were finished, he walked closer to you and embraced you in an almost too-tight hug. “I’m sorry if I’ve been putting our relationship aside,” he said. He let go of you to look into your eyes, which made his throat sting slightly as he saw how glassy they were. “I promise I won’t do that anymore. And if you ever notice me doing that, you have permission to kick my ass, got it?”
You couldn’t help but smile a little at his dumb joke.
“Do you want to watch a movie or something tonight?”
You nodded and intertwined your fingers in his hand. You were happy to have figured that out for the most part, and you were glad that the two of you have a new understanding between one another.
Tumblr media
Shinsou
You were happy for your best friend when he came bursting through your door. You had never seen his eyes filled with so much light in that moment. You knew the news he wanted to share with you, even though you had secretly been wishing it wouldn’t come to this.
Shinsou had been accepted out of general studies and into the hero program. That meant that the two of you would only have the rest of the semester together before Shinsou would go on to follow his dream.
It was selfish of you to pray that he wouldn’t get into the program, especially after all of the nights where the two of you stayed up talking about your quirks and your hopes and dreams, growing a further intimate bond with one another. You didn’t want any of that to end, but Shinsou was going to do big things. And you were going to be left behind.
“That’s great,” you said, smiling. “I’m really happy for you Shin.” You reached out to squeeze his hand, showing your support.
“Thank you,” he said throwing his arms over your shoulders into a warm and dense hug. You never wanted him to let you go. “I don’t think I could have done this without you.”
You were torn apart by this. On the one hand, you want your best friend to go off and do great things, but on the other you didn’t want him to go. You decided that the best thing to do from there is to distance yourself from him.
You tried not to sit with him at lunch, and if you did end up sitting next to him you were uncharacteristically quiet. You didn’t talk to him between classes, you went straight home after school, you even refused to study with him over the weekend like you usually do.
“What’s going on?” he asked after a week of you avoiding him. “I feel like you’re avoiding me and I’m not sure why. Did I do something?”
You shook your head no. You felt a little guilty, making him feel as though your stubbornness was his fault, but you had gotten yourself in too deep, and couldn’t bring yourself to look him in the eyes.
“I get if you don’t want to talk about it,” he said. “But I also don’t know how much I’m gonna see you when I’m put in the hero program, so I’d like to make the most of that time.” He went to scratch the back of his neck.
“That’s the thing,” you said. You could feel your eyes start to get glassy and your throat beginning to sting, but you looked up at him nonetheless. “You’re gonna go off to do great things. You’re going to become a great hero, and what am I gonna do? I’m staying here in general, which I would be perfectly fine with if my best friend were here with me.” You looked back down at your lap. “But he’s not.”
Shinsou was speechless. “What if you don’t have to be,” he said, searching frantically for any reason for you to be happy with this situation. “I can talk to Mr. Aizawa. He can train you, too. We don’t have to be separated if that’s what’s making you like this. I–”
You waved off any ideas he struck up. “It’s fine, Shinsou. It wouldn’t work out anyway. I hope you have a fun time training to be a hero.”
“Whoa whoa whoa,” he said. “You’re talking like we’re never going to see each other again.”
You looked away from him.
“(Y/n), you’re my best friend. Whether you like it or not that isn’t going to change, and I’ll always be here for you, no matter what program I’m in.”
As he said that you could feel big blobs of tears begin to spill down your face. “Is that all I am to you?” you asked. “Your best friend?”
“What do you mean?” He shifted around in his feet slightly.
Here goes nothing, you thought. “I like you, Shinsou. I really fucking like you, and I know I’m a bad person for wishing you wouldn’t get into the hero program and I know that I’m a bad person for ignoring you for so long, but I really really like you. I just didn’t want what we have to end.”
Shinsou was astonished. He didn’t realize how strongly you felt. If he had known sooner he would have said something. “Okay,” he said, “so will you go out on a date with me?”
That was not the response you were expecting. In fact, you were expecting the exact opposite. Upon looking at Shinsou, you saw how nervous he looked. His face was pale, paler than usual. His eyes were wide open in anticipation. You didn’t think he should be nervous, seeing that you had already given your answer.
When the next thing you did was laugh, Shinsou almost felt defeated. “Okay,” he said. “Sorry, I shouldn’t have asked.”
“No no no no no.” You pulled his arm down to you and laughed as your forehead bonked against each other. “I would love to go one a date with you.”
I would be weird, dating each other when you’re in different classes, but you were excited to see where this next part of your relationship would go.

Cat Girls Are Ruining My Life
Shinsou and Todoroki HCs
Tumblr media
Genre: Fluff | Crack
Warnings: Language, scratch wounds
A/N: I just busted these motherfuckers out bruh. And don’t worry about it at all Anon you weren’t disrespecting me! I really liked this idea, and boy oh BOY it would be cute. So cute. I hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
Shinsou Hitoshi | Mindjack
Oh bitch
Oh BITCH this is a dream
Pinch him
Wake him up
This is a dream
You’re a Big Cat 🥺
I can just see him literally going :o when he sees you for the first time
Has to fight the urge to pet you, deadass
You notice him right away because you can smell his cat on him
And you get excited because THERE’S A CAT IN THE DORMS
Of course your looks are deceiving though
You are basically a whole ass ninja
You’re super sneaky
It’s insane
Watching you fight is kind of mesmerizing, really
You’re ridiculously agile
And your sneak attacks could be lethal if you really wanted them to be
Honestly one of the very first times Shinsou saw just how terrifying you were was the sports festival
When it came to the wires above the canyons
You and Tsu just kind of looked at each other and shrugged
She did her thing
And you were just 
RUNNING YOU WERE RUNNING ON TOP OF THE LITTLE TIGHT ROPE THINGS
You didn’t even stumble
What kind of balance did you have
He soon learned you had the balance of a trained assassin
And because of your skill in combat
Aizawa decided you would be the perfect sparring partner for Shinsou
He also knows Shinsou, like himself, loves cats
So what better way than to distract him during his training with just your appearance
The first time y’all fight?
He is just pitiful
You take him out so fast
Kind of tragic for him
Aizawa makes him run 4 extra laps as punishment
This continues for weeks
But during this time the two of you get closer
And one day the two of you are somehow dating 
Wow
Crazy
Who would have thought
Because of this, the two of you are always together
And he has seen how your quirk also affects you as a person
You know how Tsu goes 😟 in the cold because she is a frog?
Well
If you cross in front of a sunny window
You HIT the floor
And most times you are unconscious after like five minutes
Shinsou absolutely does not purposely leave his curtains open because he finds it cute
He doesn’t know what you’re talking about
He also knows that when you get annoyed you do whatever the fuck you want
Like one time
Denki was being really annoying
And you were not having it
You were so over it
He had this bubble tea that he got from one of his favorite places
And he was so excited about it
But he said one wrong thing to you
And you just stared him dead in the eyes
And raised your hand next to it
Shinsou recorded it
“(Y/n)… what are you doing…?” “…” “(Y/n) don’t do it…” “…” (Y/n)… please don’t…”
You smacked it off of the table as hard as you could
And just walked away
Denki was very careful what he said to you afterwards
But he finds comfort in watching you do it to other people
And oh you do
But never to Shinsou
N e v e r  t o  S h i n s o u
Because Shinsou knows if he annoyed you so it will never get to that point
Wanna know how? 
Because he pays so much attention to you
That he can tell how you feel
Just by your ears
He’s noticed that your ears will twitch certain ways when you’re feeling different emotions
When you first met his cat your ears were straight up and your eyes were wide
At first he was worried something was wrong
But you just explained you were curious
After that he kept a secret journal with all your little ear placements and what they meant
One time you scared the shit out of Bakugou because he yelled and it startled you and you went fight or flight mode
Your ears went flat
Your eyes were scary
And you hissed 
You hissed at Bakugou
It actually caught him off guard
He yelled again because what the fuck
And this caused you to hiss again because what the FUCK can you be quieter blasty boi
It was hilarious lowkey
But that’s another thing Shinsou has noticed
You have really good hearing
And loud things… they are not your favorite
So he makes sure to always talk quietly and play music quietly
He even asked Hatsume to make some special earplugs that you can wear when you don’t want to hear random unwanted noises
But he does blasts Cat Girls are Ruining My Life by CORPSE sometimes
Just to see your reaction
The first time it happened 
You shriekeed and jumped into the air because when I say blast I mean BLAST
Of course he waited until you were wearing your earplugs
So it didn’t hurt your ears
It just caught you really off guard
He also recorded it
Much to your despair
He likes to pick on you because your little whines are one of his favorite things about you
And all of your little purrs and meows are like music to his ears
BUT
His absolute FAVORITE thing about you
Is how all he has to do is scratch your ears and you basically melt
He loves it
It makes for great cuddles
And when you’re all warm next to him
And he’s just scratching your ears and stroking your hair
Sometimes
You’ll knead his chest
Like your lil hands just start kneading him
And it’s subconscious a lot of the time
You just feel safe and happy 
And you do that
He loves it
He always smiles when that happens
Just knowing you feel that way around him makes him so happy
And you’re just so perfect to him
And wow
He really loves his cat girl
Tumblr media
Todoroki Shouto | Shouto
Mans thought you were adorable from the get go
Of course he didn’t know it from the get go
But damn
You are a cutie!!!
And Uraraka knew that he was attracted from the MINUTE he saw you
Because he saw you
And his mouth opened a bit
And his eyes got bigger
And he turned a little red
Of course she said nothing like a good friend
But THEN
Came the day
The two of you were sparring the one time in class
And you were very much beating him
It’s not that it was odd that you were beating him
You’ve done it multiple times before
Even when he used his quirk
You were just too fast
Too nimble
Too quick
And the fighting style you use is very strong
He can never hear where you’re coming from and he can never guess how you’re about to strike
Except for this one time !
He heard the sound of your feet in the grass
And he was guessing you were about to jump and take him down
So he jumped to avoid whatever you were about too do
And he was right !!
You did indeed jump up to take him down with a kick !
But since he wasn’t there
Your momentum kind of
Pushed you more forward than you intended
And instead of hitting him
You just
You landed on top of him
It all happened too fast for him to move out of the way again
So
There you were
On top of him
And he went bright red
And accidentally caught the grass on FIRE
And then started stuttering because omg
Omg OMG you were ON TOP of him !!!
And when you looked up at him to apologize
Oh he was OUT
Why did you have to look so cute :(
“Sorry, Todoroki! I didn’t mean to fall into you.”
“I-It’s okay… um… y-yeah. You’re good. Just an accident is all…”
“Yeah… um… I would get off but… the grass is kind of… on fire.”
“WHAT?!”
He immediately iced the flames away
But after that
It was insanely obvious that he liked you
You made him even more awkward somehow
But you can’t say you didn’t return those feelings
Deku was constantly urging him to ask you out
Of course, he had to tell him what he was feeling for you before he did that
And Todoroki was shocked
So that’s why his heart starts beating faster every time you’re around him
Wild
It was painful watching him try to interact with you after that
Every time
He’s be like I’m gonna do it
I’m gonna ask her
Just watch me !!!
And then
He’d go up to you
And you would smile at him and say hi
And he would just FREEZE
Poor baby
But one day he had enough
“Are you sure she’ll say yes, Midoriya?”
“Todoroki I am nearly 100% positive she will agree to go on a date with you.”
“…only nearly 100% and not exactly 100%?”
Uraraka got mad and literally pushed him towards you
He got the hint and walked over to you
“Hi Todoroki! What’s u-”
“Would you like to go on a date with me? I will pay for everything I promise and there’s this nice cafe and I can-”
He started rambling 
Usually this man doesn’t speak
But you made him so nervous that he couldn’t seem to stop
Of course that is until you interrupted him
“I would love to, Todoroki! When? Tonight?” “Uhhh… yeah, yeah sure tonight.”
The first date of many
He quickly learned that you were actually a cat
Like yeah okay he knew you had a cat quirk
But oh my god
You are a cat
He finds that you’re absolutely drawn to his left side
Of course it’s because he’s warm
But he doesn’t get it until on time you were near the pool
Because Bakugou (being the gentleman he is) challenged you to a fight
And it wasn’t the warmest of days but you are no bitch
So you say yes
And somehow
You end up in the pool
You already aren’t the biggest fan of water
Topped with the fact that it’s FUCKING COLD 
You hop out of that shit
Like do you have a cat quirk or a dolphin quirk
And just bury yourself under Todoroki’s left arm
At first he’s like huh
And then he realizes OH
IT’S BECAUSE I’M WARM
Now he double loves when you attach to his left side
He’s also found out that you don’t like when he pays attention to you and then just stops
Usually you can control the sudden urge to go kick his homework before you do it
But one time he got on his laptop and completely stopped stroking your hair
Which he loves doing because you also purr when you’re happy and he thinks it’s adorable
And you deadass just sat on it
Without even thinking
“Uh… love?”
“Pay attention to meeeeee!”
Going back to the purring thing though
He loves it
He thinks it’s adorable in every way
But of course he’s learned not to
Do things you don’t like
He accidentally stepped on your tail one time
He went to class with claw marks and on his arms and Aizawa had to pull you two aside to make sure everything was okay
The aftermath of that incident was very amusing though
There’s a video of both of you screaming about who was more sorry to the other on Uraraka’s phone
All in all
He loves that you’re like a cat
Because he also just really likes spoiling you and taking care of you
And he’s really happy he’s with you :,)

Time Gone By II
Pairing: Steve x Reader, Bucky x Reader
“You lied to me,” Steve huffed out as he stormed up to the bar.
“What?” Natasha asked, taken off guard by Steve's question and his sudden appearance. His face was red and puffy, and his eyes were glassy.
“She’s with him.”
“It wasn’t my place to tell you.”
“No, you just didn’t want to tell me!”
“Steve, calm down!” Nat said as she reached what was meant to be a soothing hand across the bar to rest it on his shoulder, but he just shook it off.
The party was in full bloom around them. People were streaming around them decked out in all their finery. It was like a perverted kind of last rights. They all knew of what was to come, but at least they could cover it up with makeup and pretty clothes for the night in an attempt to forget themselves.
Steve started to cry softly, a tear or two racing down his cheeks at a time. Natasha took notice, and poured him a drink before sliding it across the bar to him. He drank the entire thing in one swig without even wincing. He wasn’t even focused enough to feel it.
“You’ll be okay.”
“And what if I won’t? She was the best thing that ever happened to me, and I left her. Now, I have to watch her gallivanting around with my best friend!”
“They hardly gallivant.” Natasha joked.
“Nat!”
“What? You said it yourself; you left her. Now, get over it.”
“Shouldn’t you be a little more sympathetic?”
“I’m Russian. And you’re a soldier. Hell, you’re not even that. You’re a super soldier, and now you’re crying into your glass over a woman. You’ve seen some of life’s worst atrocities. You saw firsthand what Nazis did to people. You’ve fought the worst of the worst. You’ve seen and committed war crimes. You’ve been through a hell of a lot worse than a bad breakup, and you’re acting like a child. It’s pathetic, especially considering that you did this to yourself.”
“So you hate me now too?”
“I said that I had forgiven you, not that I wasn’t still mad.”
“Really, Nat? We’re gonna be fighting on the same team the day after next,” Steve said in his old team leader voice he used to order his fellow teammates around. He could see a slight shift in Natasha when she heard it. She froze and her eyes grew impossibly colder.
“I can bench my feelings. The question is can you?”
“I think I’m gonna turn in for the night.”
“That’s probably for the best.”
“See you tomorrow, Nat.”
When he reached his room, he sat on the bed for a while. Steve didn’t have the energy to take his suit off, so he just sat there, shoes still on and everything. He hadn’t even loosened his tie. He just stared out the window with unseeing eyes.
Everything that you had said was true. He had left, and he couldn’t change that, but he thought that you might have waited for him. It was a stupid notion, and he knew that, but somewhere along the way he got so wrapped up in being Captain America that he forgot to be Steve Rogers. He thought that you would wait around the way that his adoring public always did. Looking back on it, he had been neglectful, and not just when he left. Maybe you were better off with Bucky, but he couldn’t believe that. The two of you were soulmates. Maybe he didn’t treat you like it, but you were his everything.
He should just leave again after the battle. It was obvious that nobody around here needed or wanted him there. Hell, not even Sharon wanted him around anymore. He had no place to go.
He finally had the strength to ask the AI in his room to look up your file. Your smiling face showed up, projected on the window, so different than the one that he had seen tonight. It was the picture from your first day working at SHIELD. You were the handler for the Avengers. Prior to that you had done the same for the Navy SEALS. You had also graduated from Stanford, top of your class, with a degree in International Relations. Needless to say, you were qualified for the job. When Steve scrolled further down on your career achievements, he was confused. When had you become an official member of the Avengers? Training records were linked underneath, and he clicked on them. It read Combat Agent- trained by Natasha Romanoff. He scrolled down further and clicked on one of your training videos. You were sparring with Bucky, and it was clear that he wasn’t pulling his punches. Steve was surprised at how hard he was attacking you, and winced, terrified that you would be hurt. To be fair, you were getting in some good hits of your own. Suddenly, Bucky’s legs were undefended, forgotten in his efforts to defend himself from you, and you swept them out from under him. You pinned him to the floor, the two of you giggling madly in the video. You captured his lips in a passionate kiss right before the video cut off.
That image would be burned into his brain forever. He couldn’t describe the way that it hurt him to see that. If he could take it all back he would. Sometimes he wished that he was just a kid in Brooklyn again, before the serum, and the ice, and the Avengers.
Hell, even that seemed like so long ago. How many more wormholes had torn open the sky since that first one in New York so long ago. Back then it was just the six of them. Now, it seemed like the Avengers were no longer a team, but an army. You were just the latest.
He figured that although the party had ended, Nat would still be awake. She could never sleep easily. Although he was probably the last person she wanted to see right now, he needed to speak to her.
He walked down the hallway, after getting directions to her room, and knocked on her door quietly, in case she was asleep.
“Steve?” Natasha asked as she opened her door.
“When did you start training Y/N?”
“What?”
“I saw that she’s a ‘combat agent’ now,” he said, placing air quotes around the words.
“She is, and she earned that position,”Nat replied coldly.
“When?”
“Right after you left. She was upset, and she wanted to learn. Who was I to turn her down? Every woman has a right to learn to protect herself.”
“Why?”
“She didn’t have you to protect her anymore.”
“Is she going to be fighting the day after next?” Steve asked with increasing concern.
“She’ll stay in the palace and protect Shuri and the labs.”
“It’s too dangerous.”
“Her safety isn’t your concern, is it?”
“Dammit, Nat, of course I care about her safety!”
“So you cared about protecting her from halfway across the world?”
“Why does everybody have to keep bringing that up?”
“Because it showed your true priorities Steve, and they sure as hell aren’t us. Her safety is no longer your job. It’s Barnes’, and he’s more than up to the task because unlike some people he won’t just leave her,” Nat spat at him coldly.
“Can we just talk, Nat?”
“Come inside. I’ll pour us both a drink.”
Steve walked into Nat’s room and sat on her bed as she poured them both heaping glasses of vodka. Her movements were reserved and sharp, not the relaxed way they used to be when Natasha trusted him. She handed him the glass and folded herself tightly into the armchair across from the bed. Steve took a sip of his drink and gagged.
“You drink this swill straight?”
“I’m Russian,” she said, her explanation for everything. “What did you want to talk about?”
“You understand why I did it right?”
“I don’t know. I know you loved Peggy, but I couldn’t imagine leaving the only family I’ve known to chase after some figment of the past. So I’ll give you the chance to explain it to me.”
“When things were tough or I felt lost, I turned to her. She was my rock, the only thing that made sense to me in these uncertain times. She was the only thing that felt real anymore, so to think that I knew nothing about her, that I didn’t even know Sharon was her niece… it broke me.”
“That sucks, but you could’ve stayed. You could’ve talked to us. Why did you have to follow her?”
“I needed answers,” he said simply in response.
“Did you get any?”
“More questions than answers. You know, she discovered the Red Room. Peggy was the first to put it on SHIELD’s radar.”
“I know.”
“She knew a girl like you, but she was a little harder to reform, Dorothy Underwood.”
“Known as one of the program’s failures. Although, I suppose, so am I. Only the least skilled would ever be caught by SHIELD.”
“Did you ever get the chance to meet her?”
“Once. Fury didn’t like that Clint had brought back a stray until Peggy Carter stormed into the room. She was the one who demanded that I have a position at SHIELD. Without her, I wouldn’t have this family or this life.”
“Just another thing that I never knew about her.”
“There will always be some mystery about her. If there wasn’t she wouldn’t really be Peggy, would she, if that even was her real name?”
“Do you think that everybody will forgive me?” Steve asked as he looked up from his lap with fear etched in his eyes.
“I don’t know. You were fighting with Tony when you dropped everything, and then you just left your only remaining friends.”
“I can’t get her back, can I?” Steve asked, staring down at the glass in his hands.
“I honestly don’t know, but I don’t think you’d be right to try.”
“What are they like together? Y/N and Bucky?”
“He’s good to her, treats her the way she ought to be treated. She was shattered when you left, wouldn't talk, wouldn’t eat, nothing. He really picked up the pieces, put her back together. She’s his everything, now. I mean, you should see the way that he looks at her, like she hung the moon or something, and she’s good for him too. You know, he rarely has panic attacks anymore.”
“I’m happy for them,” Steve said with tears in his eyes.
“Steve-“
“No, I am really. It’s fine. They’re better off without me,” he said before racing out of the room.
He ran back into his own apartment, and collapsed onto his bed before sobbing into his pillow like a little boy. He fell asleep like that.
Steve woke up early the next morning, his face stiff with dried tears. Breakfast was already waiting outside his door. It was meager, just a bagel and some sausage, but it was to be expected. Today would be spent preparing for the battle tomorrow. Steve ate his breakfast quickly, and went for a brief run around the palace.
He stopped after a while and found a low wall to sit on. He watched the sun rise over the citadel. He thought back to last night and all that Nat had said. Bucky was better for you, and you two would be happy together. He had to give up. Resigned to his decision, he started to jog back towards the entrance to the palace. He knew that he had to apologize for his actions last night, and he was too impatient to wait until after he showered, so he jogged up to your room and knocked on the door hesitantly.
Hey,” he said nervously as the door swung open to see you standing behind it, still wearing your pajamas and a tired expression on your face. The one thing that hadn’t changed evidently was your reliance on coffee.
“What are you doing here, Steve?”
“I wanted to apologize for last night.”
“Ok.”
“I heard that you're an official part of the Avengers now. Congratulations.”
“Hey doll, who’s at the door?” Bucky called out as he entered the room, having just showered and wearing nothing but a towel. “Oh, hey Steve.”
“Oh, so you and Bucky are living together? That’s uh… that’s… you know, that’s just really great. Good for you two.”
“I don’t remember asking for your approval. What do you really want?”
“I told you,” he stammered quietly as Bucky came to stand beside you at the door, his features contorted with interest. “I wanted to apologize.”
“Well, you’ve done that,” you said before closing the door in his face.

dulce de leche (M)
Tumblr media
A/N: hii!! my name is cori and i want to write: fluff, angst or smut. i would appreciate y'all reading this 🥺 thank you so much! hope you enjoy. feedback is always appreciated!
Warning: this contains mature content !! you had been warned.
Tumblr media
Have you ever perceive someone as a color? If you think about them the color will appear in your mind and surround you like a filter, make you see everything that color. Well, you do. You view Byun Baekhyun as honey yellow and it gives you the warm taste of dulce de leche inside your mouth. His tiny giggles are explosions of color inside your brain, everything about him is vibrant. He is light in your life and you are happy that you get to have him…as a friend. Not everything is warm colors in your life because sometimes you feel shallow; sometimes you believed you had nothing special to be adored by him. It hurts you to watch him hold her hand, to watch kiss her cheek and those little inside jokes that you will never have. Baekhyun was your friend, not your best friend, just your friend.
Daydreaming about Baekhyun was easy, everything that it came to him was but living your life…not so much. Not that you had big troubles but today, your birthday, is not being the best day as it should be. For starters everyone, even your roommate, forgot about your special day but it doesn’t matter right?
You just tried to shove off the tight feeling of sadness and disappointment inside your chest. Today was blue.
You opened the door to the corridor with your head down, embracing the rainy cloud that followed you- on your birthday- You didn’t realize until your books and papers were all on the floor that you had crashed into firm chest. Looking up you saw that cheeky smile handing your things to you. Oh Byun Baekhyun WHY. You thought.
“Here you go!!” He said with the cutest smile but before you got to say anything he continued. “Oh and happy birthday!”
Tumblr media
 Tonight was your first college party that your roommate convinced you to go. You dressed yourself simple with just a casual black top and black jeans, not to forget your combat boots. You always wore those; they were your lucky pair of shoes.
You smiled awkwardly while he waved at you leaving for his next class. You couldn’t believe that of all people he would remember your birthday. That’s how you decided that Byun Baekhyun wasn’t like everyone else. He cared, he deeply did.
Entering the party to your surprise you found out Baekhyun was the host; you listened to the RNB music that was playing in the background as you saw colors dancing inside your brain. It wasn´t the first time your synesthesia acted. You found it curious that every time Baekhyun was related to something it seemed to increase. Speaking of which Baekhyun was heading to your direction but your roommate, Baekhyun´s best friend, wasn’t anywhere to be found. You looked at him in awe, as everything screamed in colors. Hoping your face didn´t look as dumbstruck as you felt but the color honey yellow was present all over his warm smile and his figure. He looked so handsome; his hair slicked back almost as if he was Johnny Depp´s character in Cry baby. You really felt like a school girl who had the biggest infatuation in her life.
“Hi! You look good, wanna come to the kitchen and drink something?” He asked with his smooth voice. Not to mention he complimented you who made you blush deeply.
“Y-yeah that would be awesome!” You screamed for him to hear your voice with the loud music.
Taking you by surprise he grabbed your hand and suddenly you felt as if you were chewing dulce de leche candy. Byun Baekhyun really drove your senses mad. Your heart was feeling so heavy in your chest, why was he doing that? Being nice to you and making you feel special even with the smallest things.
When you two got to the kitchen he poured you orange juice with the tiniest bit of vodka meanwhile his drink had a lot of vodka and nothing of orange juice. He gave you your cup, not abandoning your side and you really asked yourself why Baekhyun on his own party would be by your side.
“Why are you here with me…? I mean it’s your own party and i don’t wanna ruin the fun…”
“Joy said this was your first party, so i felt like it was my duty as a host to be by your side.” He said with the sweetest tone, smiling down at you. Baekhyun wasn’t very tall but your head reached his lips so to talk to him you had to look up. “I´m not going to leave your side until you have a little bit of fun with me.”
So the night carried on while Baekhyun and you talked in the kitchen until your stomachs hurt from drinking and laughing. It surprised you how funny you were when drunk; it was like your awkward aura went away. You suddenly felt hot and the whole room shone on red lights, the music suddenly becoming louder in your ears and slow bass making your body vibrate.
“Want to dance?” Baekhyun looked at you with a glint of mischievousness in his eyes, his face red. He handed you his hand to go to the dance floor. You grabbed his hand and giggled.
He stood behind you grabbing you by the waist directing your movements, his hot breath hitting your nape. Baekhyun felt intoxicated with your perfume the proximity of your bodies while you two danced. He closed his eyes letting you dance in front in him, he pushed his hair to the back feeling suddenly your hands around his nape. He opened his eyes; looking directly at your eyes. Fuck, were you always this pretty? His hands flew to your hips bringing your body closer and closer as if he needed you. It had been a while since Baekhyun danced this close to a girl but you weren´t just a girl. Something about you made him want to be closer and intrigued him. He knew he had to take care of you tonight but he just wanted to let loose.
“Baekhyun?” You asked, softly yawning. He nodded at your question too lost in the sensation of being close to you to answer. “Take me to your room, ´m sleepy.”
You laid on Baekhyun´s bed looking at the ceiling; drinking too much made you sleepy and your senses were all over the place too. Baekhyun was next to you, looking at the ceiling as well. Your eyes felt heavy and your drunken mind decided it was good to cuddle Baekhyun as you fell asleep.
 You woke up with the feeling of a headache that was killing your brain, you didn´t know where you were. Until you remembered that this was Baekhyun´s bedroom….WAIT! Did the two of you drunk had s-sex? You didn’t want to have your first time like this and nononono this was such a mistake; that was probably why Baekhyun wasn’t next to you because he didn’t want you around. What if he hated you now?
You had to get out of there as soon as you could; you opened the door to peek if someone was there but lucky for you there was no one around.
Back into your house you got into your and closed the door because how could you look at Joy´s eyes and tell her yeah I had sex with Byun Baekhyun, your best friend. You felt dirty because you remembered how close Baekhyun and you were while dancing. How his hands danced across your stomach making you feel butterflies.
The back pocket of your jean started to vibrate; startled you took it out of there and saw who was calling.
FUCK, IT WAS BAEKHYUN.
You decided to decline the call, too nervous to answer and besides you didn’t trust your voice.
 After classes you opened the door of the house Joy and you shared. Breathing in the usual clean smell your house had, you felt relaxed until you saw who was sitting on the couch.
“What are you doing here?”
 “Joy said the house will be alone because you had classes till afternoon…” Baekhyun answered while looking at the game he was playing on your console.
“Well i´m here you can go.” The harsh tone surprised Baekhyun and the tension was palpable in the air.
“Is there something wrong…You seemed okay yesterday and now you are treating me coldly?” He sounded kind of hurt with the tone that you were using.
You didn’t answer him and went to your room closing the door with a loud thud. You hated how hurt he sounded but you didn’t want to talk to him because you didn’t want to have your first time drunk. Hot tears were building in your eyes, threatening to spill and your heart squeezed at the sound of Baekhyun´s voice behind the door.
“Hey, are you alright? Has the day been hard? You know you can count on me.”
“Why are you being nice to me now when yesterday we fucked and not even a goodbye? I´m not one of your whores, Baekhyun.”
“What are you talking about? We never fucked; i wouldn’t take advantage of you… I wouldn’t…”
You opened the door, relieved to find a very ashamed Baekhyun. His puppy eyes looked at you and with a pout he said. “I would never do that to you.”
You wanted to kiss him so bad, he looked so cute and your heart squeezed at the sight of Baekhyun´s pouty lips.
“I didn’t want to have my first time like that, drunk, you know…”
“Y-your first time?” He stuttered and you nodded.
Baekhyun started to feel hot and he didn´t know what to say or what to do. He always thought you were so pretty but his shy ass didn´t know what to do or how to get close to you. When you two danced that night he thought he was going to die if he didn’t kiss you but he wasn’t going to take advantage of you specially when you were drunk and he was too. Suddenly he looked at you and he thought his heart was going to leap out of his chest, the tension had change into a sexual one and everything had slowed down.
“Fuck it.” Muttered Baekhyun under his breath before grabbing you by your cheeks and kissing you softly.
You opened your eyes watching Baekhyun with his eyes closed and pouty lips kissing you but before you could respond the kiss was over. He was looking at you with his hands still on your cheeks when you kissed him again grabbing his thin cotton shirt bringing him closer to you. You felt butterflies wait no you felt a whole zoo inside your tummy. The desire was running through your veins as well as the adrenaline making your brain excited and your panties damp because you never wanted anyone like this in your whole life. You never saw anyone as honey yellow or tasted dulce de leche when you touched them. He made you go wild with only a touch.
His hands traveled from your cheeks to your waist to bring you closer while his teeth nibbled at your bottom lip because his tongue wanted to enter your mouth so you complied, you opened your mouth letting him caress the insides of it. His tongue was warm making you moan and wet yourself even more. You had never been touched like this by anyone but Baekhyun, he was special. He was the boy that was always there, your ultimate crush. Your heart squeezed when you felt his hard on poking at your thigh.
“Make me yours, Baek. Please” You whispered separating yourself from the kiss and he opened his eyes wide. He couldn’t wait to make you feel good.
His fingers gently touched your belly and you shivered in response to his touch. He looked at you for permission and you nodded. Baekhyun dropped to his knees and opened your jeans lowering them till they hit the floor. He saw your wet black panties, touching your covered slit with his two fingers.
“Y-you are wet…so wet.” He muttered as if he was speaking to your pussy instead of you. He kissed your covered pussy and watched your reaction. You trembled when Baek lowered your panties and gasped when he saw your pussy lips. He couldn’t wait anymore and licked between your folds. His tongue felt so warm between your pussy lips. He was at first given kitten licks then Baekhyun decided to suck your clit so harsh that your hands flew to his hair. Threading your hands between his hair you brought his head closer to your womanhood, he moaned while invested on giving you the best head you would ever get. His fingers gripped your thighs to not let you fall because they felt like jelly. Your breath came in uneven pants, the coil in your stomach getting so tight that it was time for you to release. Chasing the feeling you whimpered Baekhyun ´s name and came all over his face.
“i´m s-sorry…” You said shy after the first orgasm of your life.
“No need to be sorry, you taste really sweet almost like dulce de leche.”

Fluffy
Summary: After weeks of noticing changes in Bucky, Eden, his girlfriend finally gets to the root of his new behavior and tries to fix it before it damages him permanently.
Paring: Chubby Bucky Barnes x Black! OC
Word Count: 2250
Warnings: Low self esteem, slight eating disorder (I'm not sure what to call it), lots and lots of fluff, lots of feelings
A/N: I've never written a chubby Bucky fic before but I had the idea and it wouldn't leave so now we have this. It really wasn't supposed to be this long but I ended up loving Eden and Bucky so much that it ended up being longer than anticipated but I'm not complaining cause its cute and I'm a such a sucker for soft Bucky Enjoy!!!!!
Tumblr media
Recently, Eden had noticed a concerning change in Bucky's behavior. It had started three weeks ago. The first change had been his clothes, when they were going out for a walk.
"Buck, are you ready?" Eden called. They were supposed to leave over half an hour ago but Bucky was taking forever to get ready.
"I'm coming now doll." Bucky yelled. When he exited their bedroom and entered the living room, Eden looked him up and down quizzically, raising her eyebrows. He was wearing a thick oversized sweater with a bulky jacket over it.
"Babe, are you sure that's what you wanna wear?" Eden was taken aback by his outfit choice, it was July for Christ's sake
Bucky nodded.
"Buck, its sweltering outside. It's the middle of summer, why don't you take off the jacket?"
"I'm fine with what I'm wearing Edie. Let's just go." Bucky insisted. Eden sighed and resigned the matter, thinking that he was simply feeling more self conscious than usual about his arm.
The next incident had been when they'd gone to the beach.
"Buck, are you coming in the water?"
Bucky had lowered his sunglasses to look at her and shook his head "I think I'll stay here and watch you, if you don't mind."
Eden frowned at him. Of course she minded, he'd been the one to suggest going to the beach to combat the heatwave that'd been sweeping New York. She'd pulled out her new yellow bikini that made her brown skin pop even more, taken out her wig and left her natural hair loose and driven here only for him to change his mind.
"James, you made us come here and now you don't want to go swim. You know what? I'll go by myself since it's clearly too much to ask of you."
Eden turned away from him and stalked down the sand towards the sea. She wasn't going to do this. When she was halfway there, she heard Bucky's voice.
"Edie wait." He was jogging to catch up with her. "I'll come with you."
She rolled her eyes and kept walking. Bucky grabbed her arm and pulled her into him for a kiss. Turning her head away, she frowned at him again.
"I'm still mad at you."
"I know doll, how about I get you ice cream later to make up for it?"
She tip toed to meet his height and pressed a kiss to his lips, "Deal, now let's go."
Bucky wrapped his hand in hers and began walking again.
Eden looked at him, "Aren't you going to take off your shirt?"
"Nope." He said. It struck her as odd but she didn't question it. The beach was crowded and she assumed he didn't want people to see his scars which was understandable.
The next change that took place was the one that raised the most concern, a change in his eating habits.
They'd gone out for dinner that night at their favorite restaurant. When the waiter came to take your orders, Bucky said, "I'll have the Ceasar salad."
This was alarming, James Buchanan Barnes was not the kind of man that ordered salads as a meal.
"A salad babe?" She asked, trying to make sense of what was going on.
"Oh, yeah, I'm not too hungry tonight I guess." Bucky mumbled.
"Are you sure? We can always change your order." Eden pressed. She knew her boyfriend well enough to know that a salad was never gonna satisfy him.
"Eden, doll, I'm fine."
She didn't want to push the matter to upset him so she left it alone.
This change worsened over the next couple of weeks going from him eating salads and fruit to him skipping meals entirely. She had to admit, the multitude of excuses he could come up with was impressive.
"Y/N, I'm not hungry."
"I ate before I came home."
"I have work to do, I'll eat later."
"I'll eat at work."
"I grabbed food with the boys earlier."
After that, came refusing to take pictures with you.
There was this French inspired teashop that had recently opened that she'd been begging Bucky to carry her to and eventually he'd caved.
While you where there, she decided that she'd take a few pictures for Instagram.
"Hey Buck." Eden called
"Yeah Edie?"
"You wanna take pictures with me for Instagram?"
"I don't think so baby." Bucky shook his head, his hair flying in his face.
She expected him to say yes, he loved taking pictures with her. All over their apartment was littered with various Polaroids and framed images of you two over the course of their relationship. He'd never said no before and she were astonished.
"But why baby?" Eden pouted prettily at him, hoping it'd change his mind.
"I just don't want to today."
"Is it because you think I don't look pretty?" She had to admit to yourself that this was a new low, trying to guilt trip him by jumping to conclusions but she were desperate to know why all of a sudden the majority of his mannerisms had changed.
Bucky was absolutely bewildered by your response.
"Eden doll, you look stunning, I just don't want any pictures."
Well, you did look good and weren't going to pass up an opportunity to get good pictures so you let it go
"Fine, but you're gonna take pictures of me then."
Then there was tonight.
"Bucky!" Eden called, her stilettos clacking noisily on the marble tiles, "Hurry up, we're gonna be late."
"Eden, I'm feeling sick, just go without me." He called back from your bedroom.
At this point, she was frustrated. This was an important charity event that the company she worked for was hosting and even though Bucky hated those events, he'd agreed to come but now was suddenly too sick to attend.
She'd had enough of his weird behavior the past few weeks and she was going to give him a piece of her mind.
She walked into the room prepared to tell him off, but what she saw wasn't what was expected.
Bucky was sitting on your bed, tie in his hand, facing your full length mirror, crying his eyes out.
"Buck." She called out.
He jumped, even though he'd been expecting her to come, she'd startled him.
"Hey, Edie" Bucky said.
She walked over and sat next to him on the bed, "Buck, what's wrong?"
"Nothing sweetheart."
Black don't crack but this boy was gonna give her wrinkles with the amount of glaring she was doing right now "James Barnes, if nothing is wrong, then why are you crying?"
This only seemed to make him cry even more.
"Baby, c'mon tell me what's wrong?"
Bucky shook his head. Eden wrapped her arms around Bucky and pulled him into her. As he buried his head in her chest, she gently stroked his hair, trying to soothe him.
Eventually, he raised his head, "Your dress is all wet, I'm sorry."
Pressing a kiss to his tear streaked cheek, she smiled gently at him, "It's okay my love."
"No it's not. Why are you so nice to me?"
Eden was perplexed, she was usually the needy one, aggravating Bucky every couple hours to reassure her that he'd love her even if she were a worm. He'd never needed validation but if that's what he needed now, she'd write him a book. She'd do anything to make him happy again.
"Because you're my handsome boyfriend and I love you."
At that, Bucky promptly burst into tears again.
"No no no baby, don't cry. Just tell me what's wrong James."
"I'm not handsome Eden." His voice sounded pained as he said it. She decided to try again
"You're right baby, you're sexy."
"I'm not, I'm fat." He blurted out before burying his face in his hands.
That's when it clicked. Everything that he'd been doing had stemmed from this insecurity, but she didn't know where it came from, he'd never spoken about himself like that. Bucky may not have had an ego but he knew that he was attractive.
Eden felt like crap actually for ignoring all the signs over the weeks and coming up with reasons, instead of asking him about it. There was nothing she could do now besides try her best to talk to him about it.
"You're not fat baby."
"Yes I am"
"James look at me."
When he refused, she took his chin and gently raised it so he could look you in the eyes, "Bucky, you're the most handsome guy I've ever seen."
Bucky pulled himself away from her and stood in front of her gesturing to his belly that was slightly straining against the fabric of his shirt,
"Look at me Eden, I'm chubby."
She raked her eyes over his figure. It was true that he'd put on a few pounds and instead of its usual firm shape, his stomach was now soft and slightly pillowy but it didn't take away from his attractiveness, it added to it.
"Baby, you're not chubby."
"Then what would you call this Eden?" He cried out almost frustratingly.
"Fluffy."
Bucky looked at her incredulously, "Fluffy?"
Eden nodded, "Fluffy like a cloud or a pillow or an adorable bunny rabbit."
If looks could kill, the glare Bucky gave her in that moment would have annihilated her instantly.
"I'm a man Eden, I'm not supposed to be adorable or fluffy."
Now it was her turn to glare at him. She made a mental reminder to rub her face with some cocoa butter later to prevent wrinkles.
"Who says that men can't be adorable?"
"That's...just how it is Eden." Bucky sighed. He hated feeling like this, weak and insecure, he was supposed to be the one taking care of Edie but here she was having to baby him.
"No it's not James. Who told you that?"
"No one." Bucky's answer came way too suddenly and Eden knew he was lying.
"Bucky..."
"Fine, it was Brock. He told me that I was getting tubby and that I didn't deserve you because you're so much more better looking than I am and that you'd realise that soon enough and leave me because you wanted a man that could take care of you." Bucky burst into tears again.
He felt so ashamed of himself for crying so much in front of Eden but he couldn't help it. He'd bottled up these feelings inside for weeks and now it was all spilling out.
Eden was furious. She'd always known that Brock was an asshole but to go to this length to tear down Bucky's self esteem and convince him that she was gonna leave him, was too far and she made a mental note to punch him the next day that she saw him at work for making her boyfriend cry.
"Baby I'll never leave you. I've been with you for four years and I'm not going anywhere. Your attractiveness does not decrease because you gained a little weight. I'm with you because you love and respect me not because you're hot. You are worthy of me James and you always will be."
Eden leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to his stomach. It was warm and soft and she loved it, she loved all of him, just the way he was and she just hoped that he would see that.
"Are you sure that you don't mind?"
"Yup."
"You promise you'll never leave me?" Bucky's voice was almost childlike. He still found it a little hard to believe that, Eden didn't mind. He'd always known that her heart was big but her accepting him even when he couldn't accept himself, meant so much to him.
"I promise."
"And you still think I'm attractive?"
Eden giggled, "Still as hot as the day I met you."
For the first time that night Bucky smiled and it warmed her heart to see it.
Bucky sat next to her and pulled her onto his lap to straddle him, kissing her neck, "I love you Eden."
"I love you too James."
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you how I was feeling. We could've prevented all of this." Despite all the joy, he had in that moment, there was also a lingering sense of regret for not coming to Eden earlier. Bucky felt like crap for doubting her, for thinking she'd abandon him. He couldn't believe that he thought that she'd give up on him
"Don't apologize baby, I understand that its hard. I'm just glad that we were able to work it out. Do you feel better now baby?"
"Yeah I am." And it was the truth. He felt like a weight had been lifted off of him. For the first time in weeks, Bucky was truly happy.
"I'm sorry too Bucky."
"For what Edie?"
"For not talking to you about the changes I was noticing." It was still bothering her that she hadn't said anything to him about them. Eden felt, that she'd in a way, failed him.
"You don't have to apologize Eden. I should've been mature enough to speak to you about it instead of acting like a child. Don't feel guilty." He leaned in and kissed her.
Eden pulled away, her hands unbuttoning his shirt "So how about, we skip this thing and I show you just how much I love your body."
"I thought this event was important?"
Smirking, Eden slid the white material off his shoulders, "We'll just tell them that we were sick."

Paint it red (Dick Grayson x Reader)
✾ @riseofnightwing's request: dick sees his darkside again (just like with robin) after the vilain almost kill the reader. gar or rachel tries to tell him she's gonna be fine a so he can stop punching the villain, but his dark side don't allow him to because she's what matters the most to him, love of his life and she tried to protect him in this mission, that's why the villain got her.
✾ A/N: Hope you like it! I don't know how I feel about this one yet, so feel free to ask me to change it if you didn't enjoy.
✾ Disclaimer: violence, but I really don't find it very graphic. also, an unhealthy superhero behavior (smh Batman legacy).
Tumblr media
Ever since his parents were killed in front of his eyes, there was so much anger inside of Dick Grayson. It left the last flying Grayson with nothing but empty hands trying to hold on to something that had already left. He found a sick sense of relief in brutality, even though he was disgusted by his own acts sometimes. Wearing a cape and calling it justice didn't change what Bruce would never admit; everything Batman and Robin were was just an echo of their deepest unsolved dilemmas.
He was willing to control himself. Dick had been trying to do that even before he'd met you, Kory, Rachel, and Gar. At some point, it became easier; especially with his Nightwing persona coming up. Things seemed to be slowly finding their spaces to fit in, but tonight, it all blew up. It was worse than anyone there would expect.
The punches didn't stop after the man in Dick's hands passed out. His knuckles were drowning in blood and bruised from so many hits, while the other hand remained holding the guy's shirt; white fingertips pressed against each other so hard that would concern any doctor about his bloodstream. The circus boy couldn't stop himself. He needed to protect you. He had to protect you. He would always protect you. No one in his life could go again. Not you. Not because of him.
"Dick," Kory said with authority obvious in her voice. She wasn't well-acquainted with the earthlings' necessity of hiding during battles yet. Made up name or birth one, after all, didn't seem to matter. Grayson looked like a painter, too immersed in painting his masterpiece to care about what happened around him. He just needed to keep getting red paint to finish his art. "Dick, stop!"
"Nightwing, he already passed out," Gar tried, his voice hesitant, almost trembling as he glared at his leader punching an unconscious man. He had never seen Dick this mad. "Dude..."
"Please stop!" Now it was Rachel. She was still too inexperienced to try stopping Grayson with her powers. The risk of hurting him was not worth being taken. Still, he kept his mission to hurt. Dick didn't seem to hear anyone, and he in fact didn't. From his perspective, anything outside his unilateral fight was just a noise, like an old television. "Kory!"
"Dick, enough," the Tamaranean said again, walking close to him and holding his hand before he could mangle the man's face more. Finally he seemed to come back earth. Breathlessly, he glanced at Kory. "Let him go."
Grayson placed his eyes on the man, fury filling his bones again, almost pushing him forward once more. Yet Kory's hand wrapped around his wrist somehow brought him back into reality, and in reality, Rachel and Gar's innocent eyes were wide and full of horror. God, he felt like a monster.
He looked at the floor, blood spread over the wet floor, mixed with sweat and water. Water. . . Was it raining? Fuck.
"Dick, you are crying." Rachel's voice was soft, careful even. Kory let go of his arm, and Dick looked at them in confusion. Crying? He wiped away his tears, ashamed of his small collapse. At least (Y/N) hadn't seen how violent he was capable of being. You had joined the team before he became Nightwing-- you didn't know how angry he could get. Of course, he had told you about his past, but Dick was scared seeing it was too much. Rachel and Gar's gaze on him had already changed, and they had seen him like this before. "Dick? Are you okay?"
(Y/N). He needed to see her now. Without any further warming, he just walked away from the Titans, quick footsteps towards the car. Dick needed to check if you were okay. You needed to be okay. He couldn't lose you. Oh God, not you.
"(Y/N)!" he exclaimed, opening the car door to see you, all curled up and aware. You were safe. That man would never dare to touch you again.
"Hey, you. Seems like I saved your ass, damsel in distress." You offered him a playful smirk, like you usually did to tease him. "Can you believe that idiot got me from behind while I kicked his partner? From behind! Be decent and actually fight me if you want to kill me next time."
"Don't joke about that, babe." His words were gentle, and then his arms were wrapped around you. The flashes of seeing you falling on the floor with your head bleeding and not opening your eyes were slowly replaced by the smell of your shampoo, which took him back to long, comfortable bathtub moments with you. You were in his life, you were alive, and you were held by him. You were even making sarcastic comments and obviously annoyed by your aggressor's cowardice. You were okay. "I was so scared of losing you."
Your annoyed moan interrupted him. "Dick, I think I broke my arm. Can you--"
"Yeah, of course. I'm sorry." Dick pulled away from you but remained close. "Is your head all right? Which arm is hurting?"
Kory sighed, watching the scene. As happy as she was for you and Grayson, his behavior was still worrying. It's been long since Dick showed his buried violence. On Tamaran, that wouldn't be a problem; they were raised was warriors and fought combatants as such. Still, earth was different, and Dick had already told her about his uncontrollable anger.
"We need to help him," Rachel said, catching the alien's attention. "I don't think (Y/N) saw what happened, but she could help, too."
"Maybe we should call a therapist." The two females looked at Gar with eyebrows raised. That was obviously the right option, but which health professional would understand a superhero's problem? Even if they did, the trouble with secret names was still there. "What? It helps. He could go as Nightwing or Dick and replace the hero stuff with detective stuff. I don't know."
"Yeah, we will see about that," Kory replied, a smile on her lips as she glanced at the car again. You were now calling them to come close.
"I will always protect you, okay?" The Titans could hear Dick saying that as they stepped in your direction. You replied to your boyfriend with a smile, pecking his lips briefly.
"I know that, but I think I protected you tonight, circus boy."
Hopefully, Kory thought, you would help him too. After all, if there was an interesting concept that humans have, it is the 'love of life'. You were the love of Dick's life, if someone could help him, that would be you.
