Hi ! Here cottage life with Lilia and the Knight of Dawn as Silver mom in the past Anon (I think I will need to find myself an smiley-)
First, thank you ! I'm happy this idea please you and other people 😊
But yes this OT3 is so so cute- My brain run free for it since then.
The relationship those three have...it's just melting my heart 🥹 The perfect trio. Lilia is a bit jalous that the first baby isn't from him -bat boi have his pride- but he just love Silver so much it doesn't matter much 🥺 Little funny fact about Lilia/Knight bromance: before Silver birth, him and the Knight (need to find a proper surname for him-) had a discussion. Like they didn't know who was the father between them, they had a unique way to deal with it: after the baby birth- when who is the father will be more clear- the guy that isn't the bio dad would name the baby. So no one would felt left away from the family.
Lilia blessed the baby at birth, and like in Chapter 5, the baby hair turned white. So Silver's name was back like that 😂
So much things about them...like, rumors runs fast thanks to the forest fairies. But the little family -except when Lilia is called to the castle- don't go often outside to not scare any fairy. So...one day, a toddler Silver ran away to the famous "Castle" were "Dada Lilia" was kept against his will by "This cruel brat of a Princess who want him to "babysit" (Something really cruel and scary from Dada Lilia word-). So Meleanor first encounter with Lilia rumored "son" was this child -monkey- pleading her to -politely- give his Dada Lilia back.
And this is only some funny story 😭 The guilt our time traveler could felt is also interresting. Silver was born and will grow up way before what he was supposed to do. Did this child is -will be- even the same Silver she knew ? And he will never met Sebek in this life. Will this child will be ressentful ? What kind of right does she have to change history -fate- like that ? What will happen if she dissapear, like she came- and go back to her time ? What will happen to her new found family, her husbands, her child ?
But a single giggle of her lovely silver haired baby is enough to make her worries dissapear in a smile. How scary it is, to be so happy at the point you fear the day it will be end.

Hello Cottage Life Anonie 🌻🌺💚
I’m labeling you Cottage Life Anonie until you find a emoji or nickname you prefer ☺️🌺 please feel free to choose whichever that makes you comfortable and happy.
Anonie you have no idea how happy I was when I saw you in my inbox, I was already kicking my feet in excitement ☺️🌺
Hehehe my evil plan of getting more people to like this OT3 is working 😈🙌 lolol I’m really happy that you and others like it. It makes me happy and I’m glad I can share these thoughts with others who like it too.
A knight of dawn x reader x lilia vanrouge pairing has so much potential and routes that I’m just thrilled at all the possibilities 💞💞
Lilia being jealous of the first child not being his is adorable. I can just see him make that face that says he’s pouting but denying it 😂 but he adores Silver so much and he’s also your child, so how could he no love him? Baby Silver with his glittering eyes and you just being so loving with him is perfect.
I adore that agreement Knight and Lilia had about naming the child. It’s so sweet and smart! And another way to include the mutual partner! No one is left out and everyone is loved 🥹 it’s so sweet!! (We need a name for Dawny, I hope we get one for him in twst 🙏)
Oh oh Anonie! Now that you mention the hair color change, some theorize (because of the sprite) that the upper layers of Knight’s hair is blond and the bottom layers are silver!! So if that’s the case, Lilia just turned Silver’s hair fully silver which is also what Dawny has on his lower tresses so this bromance keeps getting sweeter and the connection is still there 🥹
Absjsjshs tiny Baby Silver just toddling away to the castle to save his Dada Lilia like a true knight in shining armor!!! That’s so freaking adorable 🥹💞😭 I can imagine that the little fairies that love Silver and love mischief helped teleport him to the castle where he meets Meleanor and Lilia. You have this sweet child asking so nicely and the Queen’s heart just melts (she also adores his bravery). Meleanor then tries to smite Lilia because of the “bratty” comments 🤣🤣
Now I can imagine Meleanor require a weekly dinner with everyone, she can see Baby Silver, and if malleus is hatched, he can have a playmate. She can also meet the Knight and the Reader (not on the battlefield for once). It’s awkward at first but nothing that time and Silver’s bubbly laughter can’t fix 🥹💞
There’s so many angst potentials! Ahhhh the guilt of the time traveler wife. Silver not growing up with Sebek, not living in the same timeline ( would his friend be mama zigvolt in this case? 🤔).
Would wife tell the husbands about her situation? What happened in her timeline? I feel like if they knew they would understand, and their hearts would ache from the sacrifices she made to have them be happy. 🥹😭
I want to focus a little bit on the if she ever went back to the present, well, this new present that’s the same yet so different. I feel like if YN did go back she would at first be devastated once she realizes she’s back and what she lost. But but but, we have powerful fairies on our side. 👏🙌
I believe in this case, with the help of Meleanor and Lilia (maybe even Levan? He’s smart so he might know more about it). They would put both Silver and The Knight of Dawn to sleep until they are reunited with YN 🥹💚
So, this would solve a few problems actually! Sebek would be in the picture again, and we have Malleus and his parents, and of course, we have Lilia too.
Lilia could be waiting for YN at the spot she said she was teleported from the first time and they could have their reunion before waking the other two. 🥹💞💞 The reunion would be so sweet between the four. Lilia was waiting but at least he had his sister and baby malleus and the rest of his family and friends while he waited. He can go to that cottage and relive memories and remind himself of his loves.
The way this OT3 AU has a grip on me 😭💞💚
Anonie, Anonie, I am shaking you.
“How scary it is, to be so happy at the point you fear the day it will be end.” This line!! This line!! Oh my heart. 😭💞💞
Thank you for sending this in Anonie 💚🌺, ahhh I’m enjoying this so much and my mind is whirling with so many possibilities. You’re my partner in crime now ☺️🌺

Heya! From the Fanfic emoji asks:
💔 Is there a fic of yours that broke your heart? 🎢 Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride? 🍦 What's the sweetest fic you've created so far?
💔 Is there a fic of yours that broke your heart?
Technically I already answered this but I have another example, in a sense. I was on the cusp of posting a Final Fantasy VI fic (I think I talked about it in passing once on my writing sideblog) about Celes, Sabin, and Edgar travelling to Figaro Castle. It was in the last stretch of editing... and then my pc malfunctioned. Broke my heart, even if it's not in the same sense as the other fic XD 🎢 Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride?
So far? It's the Jemane-centric fics and they haven't even been put out yet! They started out as roughly a trio of fanfics about the brothers finding each other and fixing up Weatherleah on their own rather than with protagonist/player input. But now ocs are involved, I'm pulling questlines from all over Cheydinhal and Chorrol-- there might eventually be a side plot of the Jemanes getting involved in the main storyline with Martin..... It's currently looking to be five fics minimum. 🍦 What's the sweetest fic you've created so far?
Either one of my currently published Millona/Corvus fics. Penumbra ends with them dancing and experience, the best teacher ends with them cuddling-- so you can take your pick which one hits the sweeter tone more effectively XD
I have a third Millona/Corvus fic in the works but between homework and those darn Jemanes I have not gotten to it.

To say Billy was pissed off was an understatement. The one person who could tear apart what he worked so hard to have is now in hiding. Billy knew he should have killed John when he had his chance. Hell, people go missing every single day in this country. He had the means to do it and John would have been an easy target. 
Billy thought back to the night that Brock was killed by him. Brock was a loose cannon, someone that he, the infamous Jigsaw, could not get under control. When Billy arrived at that diner and found Jessie cradling Becca, his heart broke and his anger spiked. Jessie was able to mumble out that Brock had done this. Billy had taken in Jessie’s features and could tell the other man had roughed her up. No one touches what is his. It was then he knew what had to be done. His mind started developing a devious plan to get the two most protective men out of Jessie’s life. 
He knew the men were going to want revenge, it was in their nature. So he called John on his burner phone so they could meet. It was easy to bribe John into lying about what happened to Brock and to get him to tag along when they confronted him. He remembers watching Steve and Bucky get out of Jessie’s truck to confront Brock. They beat him to a pulp and left him in the dirt. Once they left Billy drove up to where Brock was laying on the ground. He got out of his SUV and walked over to the beaten man.
Brock looked up at him and chuckled. “Here to give me a helping hand?”
Billy stalked towards the man, his head tilted as he took in his bloody form. Grabbing Brock by the hair he retched his head back exposing his neck. “I told you to never touch Jessie. Since you don’t want to listen, this is where we part ways.” A short knife slipped from Billy’s shirt at his wrist and with a flick of his wrist, he slits Brock's neck open. Blood poured out of Brock and in moments he was dead. Billy dragged the body a short distance and left it in a ditch. Once he had a chance to talk to John the wheels would be in motion to frame Steve and Bucky.
Tumblr media
With all good plans, he should have known to cut off the dead limb that was John. Now John is in an undisclosed place under protection until he goes back in front of a judge. Billy should have known better than to hire Frank Castle. Frank is the reason all of this is happening. If Billy could take Frank out maybe this would go away. Unfortunately, Frank had a reputation for dealing with bad guys, something that both scared him and yet he admired.
Walking into the Sheriff's department Billy walked over to where Franks was sitting. “Good afternoon, Frank. Any word on where John Walker is being held? I heard the man cut a deal with the D.A.''
Frank sat back in his chair and smiled at Billy. “You know Bill, once I got the feds involved they swooped in and disappeared. Even if I knew I wouldn’t be able to tell you so why are you interested?”
“I’m interested as this has to do with a murder in our town. If something has changed, which it has since James and Steve are out of jail, I have the right to know as I’m the damn Sheriff!” Billy was seething that Frank would know more than him in this case.
Frank sat forward, leaning against his desk, and wrote a phone number. “I’m not hiding anything Bill. Here is the number of the feds in charge. If you have concerns, call them.”
Billy snatched the paper from Frank and turned on his heel, heading to his office. Once inside he slammed the door shut. Billy let out a frustrated breath as he tried to weigh his options on his next move. 
Jessie made it clear when he went to talk with her at Winnie’s place that she was going to allow Ben to get to know both men. When he voiced his displeasure she rolled her eyes at him and told him she was Ben's parent not him. That phrase alone made him want to slap her across her face but there were too many eyes on them. For now, he will let that slide. Billy has too much to lose and he needs to start calling his crew in for help but at the moment he was going to call the feds.
Tumblr media
Jessie’s nerves were on edge after her talk with Steve. How dare he ask if she still had feelings for him? After everything, he put her through. Her eyes looked out the window in front of her and she watched Ben cruising on his electric bike. Steve was watching him proudly. She remembered Ben meeting him and calling Steve a bear because of his beard. A chuckle escaped her lips at the thought of it. 
What was she kidding? Jessie deep down inside had feelings for Steve still but it was complicated now. She moved on just like he told her to do. Now she was engaged to Billy and spent almost every day with him since her pregnancy. She couldn’t just break up with him cause Steve waltzed back into her life. Right?
She didn’t hold onto hope as Natasha did. She looked towards Bucky and Nat who were holding hands as they watched their nephew play. Life wasn’t simple for her as it was for them. They would be able to pick up where they left off and start anew. Something she will never get the chance to do with Steve, it was just too late for them. 
Tears fell from her eyes as she tried to steady her breathing. It didn’t help anything that Billy showed up and started to question her decision for this reunion. Yes, she said something she shouldn’t have but she was angry. Angry at Steve, angry at Billy, and mainly angry at life. Why couldn’t she have something normal in her life? Ben deserves stability. Now it is going to be filled with visitations with Steve and a life with Billy. 
Pushing those thoughts aside Jessie wiped the tears away and put on a brave face as she headed back outside with everyone else.
Tumblr media
The day seemed to pass quickly as the sun started to set. Jessie watched as Ben played with Steve and Bucky throughout the day. The little boy's giggles made her heart happy to hear. Who knew Ben would take to both his dad and uncle so quickly? It was like they were never separated and making up for the lost time. Now with the sun setting the group of family and friends sitting around the bonfire talked amongst each other. Ben was currently in Steve’s lap and nodding off. Jessie smiled at the pair as this was what she always had wanted, a complete family. Though she knew this was not her reality. 
A cool breeze sent a shiver down her back and she knew it was time for them to leave. Jessie got up from her chair and made her way over to Steve.
“As much as I don’t want to break this up, we need to be going. I don’t want Ben to get chilled.” Jessie looked down at Ben who was now sleeping and curled up against Steve’s chest. 
Steve looked between Jessie and his son nodding in agreement. He stood up holding Ben close as Jessie said goodbye to Winnie and Bucky. Once she waved goodbye to the club members Steve carried Ben and followed her to her vehicle. Jessie unlocked the doors and watched as Steve gently put him in his car seat and then seat-belted him in. The little boy let out soft snores as they closed the door.
Steve cleared his throat and spoke. “Thank you for letting me spend time with him today. It means a lot that you gave me this time even though you could have said no.” His hand awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck. 
Jessie smiled at him as she tucked her hair behind her ears. “How could I say no? You’re Ben's dad and have every right to see him. Ben deserves to know you as well.”
“I’m honestly surprised Ben doesn’t call Billy dad. I mean Billy has been in his life more than I have.” Steve started to fidget as he spoke. This is something he dreaded.
Jessie shook her head no and placed a hand over his heart. “Steve, no matter what has happened between us you will always be Ben’s dad. I’ve been telling him stories of you since he was a baby. I’ve shown him pictures as well. That’s why he knew who you and Bucky were. But Billy is just a friend to Ben. Yes, he helped raise our son while you were gone but that’s it. With you back, you can help me with Ben as much as you like, no pressure.”
Steve fought back tears at what Jessie said. “I would like that very much. I want to help you in any way I can. Child support, outings with Ben, you name it and it’s done.”
“Speaking of child support I wanted to let you know I have a separate bank account that I was putting your check in every month. I only took what I needed but there is a lot left over for you to use and have so you can get a place of your own. We can meet tomorrow and have the account put in your name.” 
“I don’t know what to say, Jessie. Are you sure you don’t need it? That money was meant for you.” Steve questioned.
“I promise I don’t. Between Becca’s life insurance money that I still have and working part-time, I have plenty to my name. We can figure out child support another day. I should get Ben home and into bed. If he doesn’t get enough sleep he is a monster the next morning.”
Steve opened the driver's door for her and Jessie smiled at him. 
“Thank you.” Jessie smiled at him as she hopped up into her truck and once she was in Steve closed the door.
He watched as she started the vehicle and slowly backed down the driveway. He had to admit watching the woman he loves and his kid driving away pulled at his heart. Once the truck was out of sight he rejoined his friends.
They spent the next hour talking amongst themselves catching Steve and Bucky up on club business. The club was still doing charity events to raise money for different charities. The next one coming up was for the fall festival, so the women would be baking pies and other desserts to sell. 
They also spoke about the mechanic shop and how well it’s been doing. Nat was dealing with orders and income with Tony while the rest of the guys ran the garage. Nat told Steve she did what he asked and cut a check every two weeks to help Jessie raise Ben. That Steve was grateful for. The last thing he ever wanted was Jessie struggling to raise his son. 
Once ten o’clock rolled around everyone was soon parting ways for the night. Steve watched as his friends left and he made his way inside Winnie’s house for the night. Thankfully she had insisted on him staying until he got some income so he could get himself a place. 
He made his way up to the spare room and changed into PJ pants. Climbing into bed he got comfortable on his back and stared at the ceiling. He couldn’t believe Jessie made a bank account with him in mind. Maybe she held onto hope deep down inside that he would be released. Though if that was the case why would she have moved on with Billy? No matter the relationship Steve was determined to win back his family.
Tumblr media
Once Jessie got home she carried Ben upstairs and changed him into PJs. She got him into his bed and gently kissed his head. Thankfully he never woke up as she exited his room. Jessie made her way to her shared bedroom and got ready for bed. When she was finally done she crawled into bed alone. She could help but stare at her ceiling and think about the day she had. Spending time with Bucky and friends was one thing but having Steve around well she couldn’t help but smile. It’s like he had never been gone for five years when they talked. Then him being so attentive to Ben, well she would be lying if she said it didn’t melt her heart. Ben had loved spending time with Steve and Bucky. If only things were different and she waited for Steve. They could have been a family again. But now things were too late because she is with Billy. She couldn’t just walk away, right? A sigh escaped her lips again as she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
Tumblr media
Warm lips kissed the back of Jessie’s neck. The feeling of a beard made her groan in her half-sleepy state. Fingers caressed her body from breasts to between her legs and softly started to rub her clit. She moaned against the pillow as the fingers rubbed her faster. God this felt so good. Jessie couldn’t help as she panted more and more until she finally moaned out “Steve I need more.”
The fingers halted immediately and she huffed her frustration, slowly opening her eyes. She looked at the man above her and stared into brown eyes. It was Billy.
“Oh my God, Billy I-I’m so sorry.”
Billy stared at her angrily and threw the covers off of him. He got out of bed and looked back at her. “I can’t believe you moaned another man’s name! His name of all people! What did you whore yourself out last night?”
Jessie sat up in bed looking at him with hurt in her eyes. “How could you think that of me? What I did was a mistake.”
“A mistake?” Billy said with venom in his voice. “That wasn’t a mistake. Calling out another man’s name is fucking betrayal. I don’t have time for this. I need to shower and get to work.” Billy stormed off into the bathroom.
Fuck, she screwed up. Why did her mind think of Steve? She has never done that before. Jessie looked at the clock and it read 5 A.M. This was not how she wanted to start her day. She climbed out of bed and made her way downstairs. Entering the kitchen she started the coffee. Soon Ben would be up to start his day and she needed her coffee fix. Twenty minutes later she was on her second cup when Billy came down the stairs. 
“I fixed coffee if you want some.” Jessie softly told him.
“I will get some at the Sheriff's office. I will be working late again so don’t wait up for me.” Billy refused to look at her as he grabbed his keys and left.
Jessie couldn’t help but let the tears flow. She screwed up this morning. After a few minutes of crying, Jessie heard the familiar sound of Ben coming down the stairs. She quickly wiped the tears away just as Ben entered the kitchen.
“Morning mama!” Ben said as he ran over to her and hugged her legs.
“Morning Ben. What would you like for breakfast?”
“Pancakes!” He loudly answered.
“Of course you do. Go sit down and I’ll make you some.” Ben and his pancakes made her smile. Today she is going to focus on Ben and meeting up with Steve later at the bank. She would worry about Billy later and how to deal with what happened.

🤗 What advice would you give to new fanfic writers that are just getting started?
TWO PIECES!
1. WRITE WHAT YOU WANT.
Some people love yaoi, some people love OCs, some people love xreader fics. Some people hate yaoi, some people hate OCs, some people hate xreader fics. Some people love adverbs, em-dashes, and lots of description. Some people hate adverbs, em-dashes, and lots of description.
There's literally no way to please everyone, so concentrate on making yourself happy.
You can't win, so don't play the game.
2. FIRST DRAFTS AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD. THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO EXIST.
A lot of writers get so hung up on making each sentence perfect, they never get past the first page. And fear of the blank page stops many would-be writers before they even start.
But your first draft isn't supposed to be GOOD. It's just supposed to EXIST. You can make it good when you edit it. But you can't edit a first draft that doesn't exist.
Words are the raw material of your story. Think of each one as a grain of sand. You can't build castles until you fill your sandbox up.
So write, even if it's bad. Your writing will never be as good as you'd like it to be, but make peace with that and JUST WRITE ANYWAY.

Hi! For the fanfic writer emoji ask :)
💋 First kiss fics. Love em or hate em?
🍦 What's the sweetest fic you've created so far?
🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success?
Thank you for your ask, Mythy! :D
💋 First kiss fics. Love em or hate em?
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THEM! <3
Especially when there's been this *chef's kiss* romantic tension between them... That's the good stuff! Let them kiss for the first time and make it melt their brains! :D
🍦 What's the sweetest fic you've created so far?
Hmmmm let's see. Rest, maybe? It's essentially just cuddling. I think this was very sweet. Or maybe Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, where Diana helps 47 "blend in" at a Christmas market. Both fics are G-rated.
🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success?
It's a success if I had fun writing it and if I'm happy with how it turned out in the end. :)
It's awesome when others like it, too, and it's even more awesome when others tell me that they liked it (and even more more awesome when they tell me what they liked!), but I genuinely think it's not a healthy approach to fandom to consider fics a success or a flop based on their metrics.
Sometimes a great fic is just very niche and has a tiny target audience (or a target audience of 1: the author), sometimes you're just too late to the party and everyone who was interested in reading fics for a fandom has moved on to the next fandom.
I see so many "my fic flopped" or "should I delete my fic when no-one likes it?" posts on Reddit, and it's fucking heartbreaking.
Please abolish this social media highlight reel mindset when it comes to fandom spaces. Create weird art. Create fics that only three people (yourself included) will be interested in reading. Bring something to the table that is so highly relevant to your interests that its existence makes you happy even if no-one else cares about it.
That doesn't mean that we should all stay in our own corner of this sandbox and never interact with each other's sand cakes or castles. As I said before, it's awesome to hear that this highly specific and super niche thing you made scratches someone else's itch, too. We're all here because we love the characters and the world they're in, and it's fun to share the love!
It's just that "it's a success if it has a kudos/hits ratio higher than 10" and "it's a flop when fewer than 1 in 100 readers left a comment" seem to be quite common sentiments nowadays, and I think that's something we need to collectively move away from. That's the mindset that will destroy fandoms. That's the mindset that will cause writers to delete "underperforming" fics.
We don't want this.

Oi Krikkit 💖💖
I hope you're alright & not too tired by your long shifts !!
I'm here for the fic writer's game [I picked 3 emojis because I'm really curious 👀]
1- 🤡
2- 🎶
3- 🤲
Kith 😘
Tumblr media
hey Val! i'm exhausted, but it's a little better than it was at the end of 2022 i guess? i promise i'll try and stop complaining about it haha
thanks for the ask, i hope you're doing well too!!
🤡 What's a line, scene, or exchange you've written that made you laugh?
i once wrote a fic (that i never finished btw oops) about a character that's an absolute disaster (Root from person of interest) trying to charm a character from a totally different show (Lisbon from the mentalist). except the disaster one's just been wounded, so it goes pretty much like this:
character A: cheesy flirty introduction
character B : flustured/lowkey kinda falling for A
character A: passes out on the floor from the pain/blood loss
it was a while back and that fic is definitely not my best, but to this day i think that was hilarious of me.
🎶 Do you listen to music while you write? What song have you been playing on loop lately?
almost always when i'm at home! it helps me zone out of Reality and focus on certain scenes. added bonus, when i feel an idea slipping away like those fuckers often do, replaying the song i just listened to is usually a great way to jog my memory and get it back! (one good thing i learned from a decade in college! yay)
these days i've been playing the shit out of castle of glass by linkin park, and since you're a fellow levihan shipper, i can't recommend enough having a listen. it's... literally levihan in the 2nd part of s4, and it breaks my heart every single time (might use some lyrics as a fic title before part3 gets released, because it's THAT fitting)
🤲 Would you please share a snippet of a wip?
I was REALLY nervous anyone would ask that one, because i'm such a pro at modifying even key parts of my drafts right before posting stuff?? but okay, here we go. this is from an snk veterans college AU that i'm not going to finish or post anytime soon:
It's four in the afternoon and Hange just woke up, which their mother would no doubt qualify as a great shame when the day's weather has been so splendid –at least according to Nanaba and Mike, who have been blasting their phone to try and get them to come out with them.
They chuckle fondly. Of course those assholes liked nothing more than to spend their worst hangovers going out for a run at ungodly hours in the morning when Hange was still walking that fine line between still a bit drunk and entering the despair of post-alcohol consumption dehydration, and then exposing their sensitive eyes to way too much daylight for the sake of long term health and detoxifying their bodies.
Masochists.
They scroll down the long list of texts, quickly scanning it and surprised to see even Erwin Always-too-busy Smith replied to the group chat saying he had a free day as well and wouldn't mind spending it in the sun; and finally cave to give into what they'd really intended to do in the first place.
Their heart beating wildly against their ribcage, they get their finger to tap on the other app. Levi's profile picture is surrounded by the familiar orange and purple glint of a new story addition, and Hange's so quick to click on it they sigh at themself –before they lay eyes on the content and it turns into a pathetic pained moan instead.
send me some emoji fanfic writer asks!

🎠 Holding out for a hero ‼️ PART 5. The knight and the drake.
Tumblr media
A Sabine x GN! Reader fanfic.
Tumblr media
Wooo!!! Part 5 here so silly!!!! Leaving u again with another unsatisfactory ending bcs I am 😏 evil . 😈 I promise next part will be sweet though!!! 2 more parts left to this silly fic!!! :D once again Ty all for ur patience!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ means so much to me! ALSO . I REALIZED I HAVE BEEN USING THE WRONG EMOJI FOR THE FIC NAME THIS WHOLE TIME . I WAS USING❤️ IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ‼️ 😭😭😭 ANYWAYS AHAHA ENJOY THIS SILLY PART.
Tumblr media
Friday morning Sabine was up early she spent most of her time in the stables with Katja and a very sleepy Chiyo. Sabine explained the plan to Chiyo who was falling asleep standing up. While the knight explained the plan, she put Khaan’s tack on him and Katja used her magic to disguise the drake. When Chiyo knew of her part in the plan and Khaan was ready Sabine walked with her drake to the arena to meet up with Sands. Chiyo and Katja walked to the castle where Jay waited for them with Sabine’s clone. Once at the arena Sands explained to his knight that because she was a late and strong entry she would be put in the last few matches. The people at sign-ups said that they were “saving the best for last” so Sabine would have to wait before she could compete. Before Sands left, he told the the woman that he did not give a name at sign up’s just in case Sabine lost. The king did not want to be embarrassed. He told his knight to do her best he wished her luck and then he left going to the balcony. Now Sabine was stuck in the holding area of the arena watching match after match. She watched as lords and knights walked past her defeated and when the lord who asked for your hand passed by her, she smiled at him. Sabine could not wait to knock his ass off his horse. Her smile wasn’t from her being friendly but from her thinking of how great it would be to beat him. She had to wait a little longer in the holding area with the lord and then an announcer asked for Sands competitor. the knight put her helmet on then she got on Khaan she took a moment to collect herself she was nervous. She grabbed Khaan’s reins, and she rode out of the holding area. As soon as she was out of the area another announcer introduced her into the arena. Khaan rode around the arena Sabine was letting him get some of his energy out and giving herself some time to adjust to the sunlight. The holding area was dark her eyes needed time to adjust to the light. Once her eyes were adjusted, she looked to the balcony seeing you. Your uncle was saying something she could not hear and then she saw her clone. It was freaky seeing herself and she felt bad when you spoke to her clone and it didn’t reply to you. At least Chiyo did she hoped the girl was a good distraction. The knight rode her drake in front of the balcony stopping him there she held onto Khaan’s reins with one hand and her other was free. Your father asked for her name she thought about it, and she decided to not give it to him. She wanted to compete under the cover of mystery she wanted to make this a surprise for you. She raised her hand pointing right at you then she looked at Khaan’s saddlebag she opened It looking for the ring she brought with her. Once she found it, she held it up to your father listening as Katja spoke to your father. The knight smiled when the advisor worked her magic, and she convinced your father to say yes to the mystery knight’s proposal. Once in the matches Sabine put all of her strength into them, she knocked lords and knights off of their horses, Pegasus, and drakes. None of her wins in these matches were satisfying though because none of those competitors were the one, she hated. Sabine occasionally glanced at you she could see how nervous you were. She wished her stupid clone could say something to you, but it just stood there and watched. Each time you spoke to it, and it just stood there she felt awful. When she was near her last match she had to put in a little more energy into it since the knight she was up against just wouldn’t quit. She had already struck him three times and he managed to stay on each time she thought she had him on the third time, but he regained his balance quickly. Sabine rode back to her starting spot panting she was getting tired of this the knight rode back to his starting spot he was slow, so he gave Sabine a little time to rest.
Tumblr media
Khaan growled he was getting impatient too. The drake shook his head when his rider told him to be calm and while Sabine and Khaan got ready to ride down the arena again Sabine heard Jay yell “shit!” the knight looked to the balcony seeing her clone start to fade. The woman panicked too, and she made Khaan run down the arena earlier than the knight. The man made his Pegasus run as well and Sabine knew she needed to provide a distraction to keep all eyes off of her clone so when she heard Chiyo yell “look over there!” she struck the knight as hard as she could the man fell off and the crowd cheered. The mystery knight finally managed to win the match. Sabine competed in one last match against a lord before she was pulled out of the arena and replaced with the lord of the Northern Druids. She was offered water, but she did not take it because you were watching her, she did not want to take her helmet off and spoil the surprise. While Sabine and Khaan rested in the holding area The lord won his match and then it was just him and her. The woman rode Khaan back into the arena stopping him at her starting line she watched the lord on the other side she was nervous this was her last match this one was the one that truly mattered. Excitement was bigger than her fear though she was finally getting the chance to knock the lord off his horse. The knight and the lord both looked at the balcony as the king congratulated them on making it this far. When the king was done with his speech and he said, “may the best man win!” Sabine let out a huff she shook her head she was so fucking nervous, and she felt awful it was really fucking hot. She was starting to think maybe being mysterious wasn’t all that great. She watched as the lord’s horse reared and neighed. Khaan copied the mare he reared and roared the drake was mocking the horse and Sabine allowed it. She held onto Khaan’s reins as she heard an announcer yell “ready!” she took a deep breath in. “set!” she let it go she lowered her head to Khaan’s ear “this is it Khaan” she pat the drakes shoulder his reins still in her hand “let’s knock the fucker off his horse” the woman smiled when Khaan snorted and he clawed at the dirt of the arena. “Go!” Sabine pat Khaan one last time and the drake ran down the arena after the lord. Sabine struck first and she struck fast the man did not even know what hit him. All he saw was a flash of red and black his gut hurt and then his back as he hit the floor his mare continued running leaving him behind. The crowd cheered loudly for Sabine she laughed at the sight of the lord on the floor she had been waiting for this all day and it was super fucking sweet. Khaan stopped and he reared surprising his rider, but the woman stayed on his back she pats his shoulder thanking him for all he did for her. The woman decided to feed her ego and she rode Khaan around the arena loving the cheers of the people while the lord sadly walked himself and his mare out of the arena. The knight rode one last lap around the arena before she stopped her mount in front of the balcony. She heard your father congratulate her for not only winning the games but your hand as well. Sabine got off Khaan and she looked up at your father hearing him ask for her to remove her helmet. Sands who stood next to Avalon made a ‘go on’ gesture. Sabine listened to Avalon she raised her hands up to her helmet she hesitated for a bit then she took it off she shook her head fixing her hair. The crowd and Avalon went silent but your uncle was talking and laughing. Sabine felt gross staying covered the whole games was hard she was sweaty and hot she panted a bit as she looked up at you. She watched as you sat at the edge of your chair mouth agape and you looked down at her with wide glossy eyes. The woman backed up as you dropped your cup and juice poured down from the balcony. She smiled up at you as you ran over to the balcony, and you burst into tears of joy “Sabine?”

🙋‍♀️💖🦅💞 and 🧠 for uhhh the Mute? (I have too many questions oops 😅)
Oh wow, thanks, Lucy for sending in so many 🤗🤗.
🙋‍♀️Do any irl people know you write fanfic?
Oh yeah, definitely. I don't hide it. Most of the time I just say that I write but don't go into details because fanfiction isn't something commonly known around me. I will try to explain a bit more if people are curious about it, and the reactions are always funny. Especially when I tell them that I write smut 😆. Otherwise I have my sister and a very good friend who know stuff in details. Neither has ever read anything, though.
💖 What made you start writing?
That is actually a very good question. I started writing in my early teens. I just loved writing, holding a journal and stuff like that, imagine stuff. Fanfiction wise, what made me write (without knowing what fanfiction is because internet was pretty new where I'm from), was Hugh Jackman. My then best friend and I were huge Wolverine fans and I wrote her a couple of fics and she for me. Good times. I still have them on my laptop. Oh, the cringe of reading something of a 17yo me 😬😂.
🦅 Do you outline fics or fly by the seat of your pants?
Depends of its length. If it's something short-ish, I go with the general idea. I'll add a couple notes if something comes to mind, but that's about it. If it's a chaptered fic then yeah, I definitely outline. Admittedly, the outline can be a bit vague at first. Most of the time, I get a better feel for it once I've written a whole chapter and gotten into the story and the characters. At least that was the case for my last 2 longer fics. I keep opening and closing the doc anytime I get a new idea and build up the plot.
💞 Who's your comfort character?
Always and forever Frank Castle. The character who got me from writing for myself to posting. I will always go back to him.
🧠 Pick a character, and I'll tell you my favorite headcanon for them.
The Mute, huh? Hmmm... My favorite headcanon is pretty simple and what many of us probably want. He survives the end and finds peace with someone, living in a small cottage and just living his life.

🎶 Do you listen to music while you write? What song have you been playing on loop lately?
~ @bestcatboychatnoir 💙
I have to listen to music when writing! I really struggle with wandering focus, but music helps keep me in some sort of flow. I can't work in silence cause my mind then feels the need to fill it, and its not always fic related when it does.
I mostly listen to instrumental music when writing. My favourites are video game soundtacks or music from studio ghibli films. Songs that I'll loop or definitely have in my playlist are:
Hopes and Dreams - Undertale
Title Theme - Night in the Woods
Streets of Whiterun - Skyrim
Merry Go Round of Life - Howl's Moving Castle
Sixth Station - Spirited Away

restraining myself from asking about the bodyguard au because I asked about that the last time Sir aldred and the sticky bog monster?
So this one is pretty much an idea I had for my current fanfic i'm working on. Sir Aldred and Gretta were making their way to her castle, but Dwight surprises them both by showing up with the poop emoji boxers over his jeans. It completely confuses Sir Aldred. The chapter I'm working on just now Gretta mentions how she finds it funny how some of the heroes in the comics that Dwight reads wear their undergarments on the outside of their clothing and mentions how maybe it's used as a tactic to confuse the enemy. I wanted him to say something along the lines of "Well, I might not be a champion that uses brute force or is good with a sword but I have the next best thing" "You must be joking." He looks over at Gretta who shrugs her shoulders. "Alright, I'll humor you, What could you, a champion lacking proper skills with undergarments over your clothes possibly have?"
"Bear spray." He pulls out the bearspray and sprays him in the face, Sir aldred screams and Dwight collides into him, trying his best to knock him over the edge into the sticky bog but he's not strong enough since sir aldred is pure muscle. Sir aldred elbows Dwight in the back, knocking the wind out of him. Since sir aldred is in pain and has lost his sense of direction he grabs Dwight and tries to fling him not realizing he was on the edge already and they both go tumbling into the sticky bog. Gretta goes to rescue Dwight and that is when the sticky bog monster makes a return. Gretta grabs a rope from Dwight's bag and helps him up just in tim as the bog monster turns it's focus on Sir aldred since he's the closest target and he gets pulled under into the bog, hearing his screams until they are garbled and only a few bubbles erupt from the bog underneath.
"Ew." Dwight says looking back. That's all I have for now.
I'll give you a freebie for the bodyguard AU anyway. I had a scene in my head where someone comes into a nightclub getting set up for a party Gretta is setting up and starts shooting up the place. Dwight grabs her and flings her over the bar and they hide behind it. She of course is freaking out, screaming as it's the first time something like this has happened but she needs to stay quiet. so out of sheer panic Dwight kisses her to shut her up. The guy runs out of the club taking off in a car and the screeching of tires are heard as they are left behind in the place that's now shot up to hell and back. Now they have to deal with the aftermath of the supposed attempt on Gretta's life and the kiss they shared.

Joel: Big, gruff, grumpy man becomes putty in his lady's hands. I'll never get tired of it. Number one simp right there.

Tumblr media
Five Years Later....
Steve and Bucky had been called into a meeting at their prison with their attorney Matt Murdock bright and early. Both sat down at the table facing the man who had been trying to set them free. Steve was nervous as his leg bounced under the table. 
Matt gave both men the news they had been waiting five years for. “Gentlemen, I have great news. You’re being released from prison. Thanks to the work of Assistant Sheriff Frank Castle he got John Walker to admit to lying on the stand. Walker was arrested this morning for perjury by Castle pending his charges. I know this may be a lot to take in but you’re going home today.”
After five long years, both men could finally go home. Steve’s mind went a mile a minute. He didn’t expect this day to come. He wondered what Jessie would be up to with their son. God, he had a son, and even though he missed the first five years he could still get to know him as a child. Steve’s one regret was telling Jessie to move on. Would she have moved on so easily? Bucky had never shared that information with him and honestly he doesn’t blame him. Steve did break his sister’s heart, something he swore he would never do.
Both men thanked Matt for everything he did to help clear their names. They were led away to start the process of being released. What or who would await them, well time would only tell.
Tumblr media
Jessie groaned as she was in between sleep and being awake. Warm fingers were gently rubbing against her clit before they pushed into her wet channel. Instinctively she rolled her hips into the hand as wet lips kissed just below her ear. Another hand grabbed her thigh and placed it over the one that pushed in between her legs, while the other hand kept fingering her. Little moans escaped her lips as a “shhh” came from behind her.
“Not too loud my love, I need you to be as quiet as you can. We have maybe five or ten minutes before he comes barreling in here.” Billy’s gravelly voice spoke in her ear. Jessie nodded her head and turned her face into the pillow. He pulled his fingers from her, grabbing his cock and running it through her arousal before he pushed into her.
They both groaned in pleasure as he quickly thrusted into her over and over again. Jessie gasped into the pillow as Billy grunted into her neck. His hand made its way to her clit, his thumb strummed her clit to his thrusts and Jessie bit down on the pillow to suppress her moans. Together they chased their high and were cumming within seconds of one another. Billy tilted her head back and captured her lips with his. Just as they pulled apart they could hear little feet running toward their room. Billy quickly pulled out of her and tugged on his boxer briefs as Jessie pulled her shorts and tank top on. 
Jessie looked over at the clock noting that it was 6 am on the dot as the door swung open revealing her 5-year-old son Ben. His blonde hair stood up on end as his blue eyes stared at her. “Mama, I’m hungry.” 
“Well let’s go get you breakfast then. What would you like?” She asked him just as enthusiastically. 
“Pancakes!” Ben excitedly answered as he ran from the bedroom and to the living room downstairs.
Jessie couldn’t help but laugh as she climbed out of bed. Her son was predictable with his answer and was on a pancake kick for the past few weeks. If this was the worst thing he wanted to eat then she considered herself lucky.
Tumblr media
Ben ate in silence as he munched on his pancakes while Jessie stood at the counter sipping her coffee. Minutes later Billy was walking down the stairs in his uniform and was greeted by Ben.
“Billy!” The child squealed in delight. 
“Ben!” Billy enthusiastically said back. “I see your mom has made pancakes again.” He leaned over Ben and ruffled his hair playfully. 
“She makes the best ones,” Ben answered before shoveling more into his mouth.
“That she does,” Billy answered, walking over to Jessie and placing a kiss on her cheek. If there was one thing he loved it was mornings in this house. Of course, the nights were just as fun once Ben went to sleep and Billy took Jessie to bed. If there was one thing not lacking in their relationship it was sex. They had been trying for a baby for several months now but nothing had come of it yet. Billy thought the more they tried it would eventually happen. Jessie was more laid back, saying “it will eventually happen when it’s meant to.”
Billy had moved in over a year ago after he proposed. There was some hesitation at first but she ultimately said yes. They were now officially going to be a real family once they got married. None of this playing house that they did for over four years. Soon enough Jessie would be pregnant with his child and that would make his life complete. He’s a patient man and has all the time he needs.
His cell phone rang with an unknown number. He excused himself to step outside and picked up. “Russo.”
“Boss, we have a big problem.” Jack's voice was nervous.
“Well, what is it? You know I don’t take these calls when I’m home so it better be good.” Billy was annoyed being interrupted in his normal routine.
“John is gone. Apparently, someone questioned him and he flipped. He retracted his statement against Steve and James and they are going to be released today! I’ve looked everywhere for John but he either fled or someone has him hidden. Word is it could be your boy Frank Castle but that’s not confirmed.”
Billy listened to everything he was told. Steve and James were going to be released today from prison. It would only be a matter of time before Steve starts sniffing around what was rightfully his. His grip on the phone tightened. “You find out where John is and get rid of him. I need to go and take care of things.” Billy hung out and made his way inside. 
Jessie was at the counter still but on her cell. She looked shocked at whatever was being told to her. He wouldn’t be surprised if Winnie had already heard the news and was letting her daughter know. 
After a few minutes Jessie hung up and tears were falling down her cheeks.
“Are you okay Jessie?” He asked.
She shook her head no. “My mom called. Steve and Bucky are being released today. She wants me to bring Ben over so he can meet his uncle and dad. I-I can’t believe they are getting out after five years. It’s like a miracle.” Her blue eyes filled with tears and Billy fought back his disgust over the news.
He wrapped his arms around her and held her for a few minutes. “Are you sure it’s wise having Ben meet them so soon?”
Jessie pulled back a little from him and looked up into his dark brown eyes. “I think it’s fine. Ben already knows about them both from stories I’ve told him before bed. He knows they have been gone but I didn’t say why, he’s too young to understand. I think this would be great, especially for my brother. As for Steve, well I have no idea how that will go but ma and Bucky will be there for us.”
“If you think so then I support you. Let me know when and I will go with you. I don’t have time for breakfast, I got a call saying they need me early. So I will see you later.” Billy leaned down and kissed Jessie’s lips. He pulled away and grabbed his keys off the counter. “I will see you later Ben.” He waved at the little boy who quickly jumped off his chair and ran to Billy, wrapping his arms around a leg.
“I'm gonna miss you,” Ben said against Billy’s leg.
“Gonna miss you too Buddy. Keep your mama safe while I’m gone.”
Ben let go and smiled big. “I will protect my mama.”
Billy laughed as he headed out the door and into the sheriff's SUV. As he climbed in his happy mood faded. He needs to find John quickly.
Tumblr media
Jessie headed over to her ma’s house with Ben. If anyone could help her figure out what to do about Steve coming back it was her ma. Jessie was bitter the first year after what Steve pulled. But raising a child essentially on her own didn’t allow for such emotions. On top of it, Billy has helped her with Ben since day one. He helped her with her emotions when things got overwhelming and when she needed a breather he took over. Over the years she also had her friends and the biker club that helped when she needed a babysitter. Then there was her ma or what Ben called her mamaw. Ben absolutely adored her and Winnie found some healing by helping to raise him. To say Jessie and Ben were taken care of was an understatement to all the people who helped. As they say, it takes a village to raise a kid. Jessie’s village had to be one of the best.
As Jessie pulled up to her ma’s house Ben was cheering from the back seat. Winnie came out onto the porch and waited as Jessie got Ben out. Once she put Ben on the driveway his little feet took off as he ran towards his mamaw. 
“Mamaw! I’ve come to see you!” Ben screamed for all to hear. Jessie and Winnie couldn’t help but laugh as he ran into his mamaw’s arms hugging her tightly. 
“I see that. Have you been a good boy for your mama?” She asked as she lifted him up. Ben shook his head enthusiastically.
“He’s been good. He had to have some pancakes again today. I swear he just may turn into one if he keeps eating them.” Jessie laughed as she watched Ben hug her ma and place kisses on her cheeks.
“As long as he is eating, who cares what it is? Though mamaw needs to make you some french toast sometime. You would gobble that right up.” Winnie said as she pretended to eat him causing him to squeal. Ben wiggled in her arms until she put him down. Then he was running over to where his toy trucks were on the porch waiting for him. As soon as he sat down and started playing Jessie and her ma sat on the other side of the porch where they could watch him.
“So what’s bothering you this morning? Is it Steve’s release?” Winnie inquired.
Jessie nodded her head. “Yeah, I mean I didn’t think this day would ever come and now it’s happening today. Ben knows about Bucky and Steve cause I’ve told countless stories. But…”
“But what dear?”
“What if Steve meant what he said? That he doesn’t want a kid? I mean I have Billy now and he is like a dad to him. He’s been there for us the entire time Steve has been gone. I just don’t want to see my son hurt from Steve rejecting him.” Jessie watched as Ben played with his trucks on the porch. Her son was everything to her and she would be damned if he got hurt.
“Winnie’s eyes went from Jessie to Ben and she understood the hesitation. “Jessie, I have known Steve his entire life. If there is one thing I’m sure of it’s that he is going to love Ben. You both created a beautiful boy and I know Steve is going to want to make up for the lost time. The only question I have is what does Billy say about their release?”
Jessie’s smile falters just a little. “I think he is nervous about how I’m going to react to Steve getting out. I mean there is a history there but I’ve moved on. That’s what Steve told me to do. I’m happy with Billy and Ben. I’m open to Steve getting to know our son and if he wants to be in his life I will allow it cause I’m his mother. But yeah, I think Billy is worried. He said he wants to be here when the guys arrive. Of course, I don’t know if that's a good thing or not.”
“Well, we will cross that bridge together today. If anyone makes a fuss I will deal with them. What’s important is that they will be freed and cleared of that crime.”
Her ma was right, all that mattered was their release. Everything else would be dealt with slowly when it comes to Ben. She didn’t want to overwhelm him too much. Today was going to be a great day. A day of peace, a day to celebrate homecomings, and a day for families to be reunited.

Later on, around noon time Nat and Wanda came over to Winnie’s house to help get things ready for Bucky and Steve to show up. Winnie wanted to make sure to have normal food for the guys to eat. The women made the men's favorite dishes as they chatted away in the kitchen.
Natasha was excited to finally get Bucky back after five years apart. Nat had been faithful and stood by Bucky’s side, refusing to move on with anyone else. Jessie admired that in Nat and would have done the same with Steve if he didn’t tell her he didn’t want her anymore. 
Winnie and Wanda were finishing cooking while Ben was being chased around by his auntie Nat. Jessie watched as the little boy laughed when Nat caught him in her arms. There was no denying Nat loved Ben like family. That’s something that never lacked in the last five years. The club members helped Jessie with Ben when she had to work. Billy, of course, didn’t like it but she insisted they were good people. That was the only thing that ever bothered Jessie about Billy. The fact he didn’t like her friends despite them being supportive of her relationship with him. 
Jessie was taken care of financially by income from the mechanic shop. Nat ran the shop with Tony and they made sure Jessie would get Steve’s income for the time being. This left Jessie working part-time at the diner and raising Ben. The money she got from Becca’s life insurance was set aside so she could start building her dream house on the land that Steve bought all those years ago. Steve had signed the property over to Jessie who was waiting for the right time to build. Billy tried to get her to sell the property but she refused. This was going to be where she eventually settled down once the contractor finishes the blueprints. 
Jessie was lost in her thoughts when she heard the revving of motorcycle engines coming down the road. Ben stopped running from Nat and stared in awe as Tony, Thor, Loki, Clint, Sam, Bucky, and Steve rolled up. Shit, she didn’t know the guys would be here this early. Jessie’s eyes never left Steve as he parked. He looked different than the last time she saw him. Now Steve had longer hair and a thicker beard. Next to him, her brother Bucky was parking his bike, he had shorter hair and a beard. Both men looked more rugged than she remembers.
Nat ran up to Bucky as he got off his bike. She leaped into his arms and they both kissed. Jessie couldn’t help but smile at them both. Steve was met with handshakes from the men and Winnie hugged him. Ben walked up to Jessie and grabbed her hand. He looked nervous with the two new men here. Steve’s eyes wandered over to Jessie and the little boy who held onto her for dear life.
Steve sucked in a deep breath. This had to be his son that Bucky told him all about. He was a spitting image of Steve with blonde hair and blue eyes. Steve slowly walked over to them as Jessie and the little boy watched his every movement. His eyes caught a glimpse of a ring on her left ring finger. It was not the ring he gave her all those years ago.
Jessie’s eyes never left Steve's as they stood a foot apart. “Ben, remember me telling you stories about your dad?” The little boy nodded his head nervously. “Well, this is your dad. He has come home with your Uncle Bucky who is now approaching us.” Ben clung to Jessie's leg, nervous about the taller men. “Can you say hi?” Jessie knelt next to her son who held onto her. Steve finally knelt in front of them both to be on the same level as them. 
“Hi, I’m Ben,” the little boy shyly said. 
“Hi, Ben I’m Steve, your daddy.” Ben walked over to Steve and stood between his parents. His little hand touched his beard and the boy giggled. 
“Mama he is hairy like a bear.” Both Jessie and Steve laughed as the little boy took him in.
“That he is baby. Do you recognize him from the picture at home?” Ben nodded again and looked at the next man who knelt on the ground. “You should know who this is, Ben.”
“Uncle Bucky? You come home to stay?” he asked. 
Bucky smiled at his nephew. “Your dad and I are here to stay buddy. Promise.” At that moment Ben flew into his Uncle’s arms and hugged him. Then hugged Steve just as tightly.
Jessie watched the small reunion with tears in her eyes. It was then she noticed all her friends watching the four of them. Winnie and Nat wiped tears away as the men stood grinning at the sight of this family being reunited. 
All seemed to be going well until the Sheriff’s SUV pulled up to the front of the house where everyone was. 
Steve watched as the Sheriff got out of the vehicle and made his way to the four of them. Ben noticed Billy instantly, screaming his name as he ran towards the Sheriff who caught him in his arms and picked him up. Jessie, Bucky, and Steve stood as Billy approached them. Steve didn’t know why the Sheriff was there until Billy walked past him and kissed Jessie on the cheek.
“I didn’t know the get-together was already starting. Weren’t you going to call me sweetheart so I could be here?”
Jessie smiled as she looked at Billy. “They literally just showed up minutes ago. I was going to call you here in a few.” Billy nodded at her statement, his dark eyes looking at both bikers in front of him. He could see the anger simmering in Steve’s eyes while he held Ben. 
“Well I don’t want to interrupt but I wanted to say it’s nice to see you both out and cleared of your charges. I know we have all looked forward to this day.” He placed Ben on the ground and lightly grabbed Jessie’s hand. “I need to have a word in private with my fiance if you would excuse us.”
Steve’s jaw was about to hit the ground at the word fiance. There was no way she would end up with Billy of all people, would she? He watched the two walk towards the SUV and started talking. It seemed pleasant enough until Billy said something and made Jessie roll her eyes. As they parted he kissed her on the lips and headed to the driver's side of the SUV and got in. Jessie walked away from Billy as the Sheriff left the group of friends and family. 
Steve looked at Jessie as she approached them and asked, “Is everything okay?”
Jessie smiled awkwardly at him. “Of course, everything is fine.”
Before Steve could call her out on the blatant lie Ben came rolling up to them on his electric toy motorcycle that had two wheels on the back and one on the front. Steve, Bucky, and Jessie started to chuckle as the little boy stopped in front of them. 
“Mama, can I ride with them now that they are home?” Ben looked at her with determination.
“Ben, you're still too young. But, I’m sure your uncle and dad would love to see your skills on the bike.” The little boy got excited and started to ride around in the driveway for all to see. Their friends cheered Ben on as he rode around them. With Ben now occupied and everyone watching Steve decided he needed to chat with Jessie.
“Hey, do you have a minute, Jessie?” Steve inquired and Jessie nodded her head. The two of them walked away from the group of friends.
“What do you want to discuss, Steve?” 
Steve rubbed the back of his head as he asked the most obvious question. “So you and Billy are a couple? When did that happen?” He tried to keep the jealousy at bay but knew he sounded it.
“It happened when you decided to dump me while pregnant. Billy helped with anything I needed and we just sort of started dating when I was halfway through my pregnancy with Ben. He proposed a year ago and I said yes. Look, he is a great guy and great with Ben.”
“I’m just surprised you want to be with someone who helped put me and your brother in jail.”
Jessie looked at Steve, anger clearly on her face. “Billy was doing his job. I don’t expect you to understand. But know this, I’m happy, Ben is happy and that’s all I care about. I’m glad you’re both home but don’t expect me to end my relationship because you’re back again.”
“You can honestly sit there and tell me you feel nothing towards me?” Steve’s voice dropped an octave as he spoke softer so their friends wouldn’t hear. 
“I-I feel nothing. You made sure of that when you told me to move on. This is me moving on Steven so you just need to accept it. If you want to be in Ben’s life that means you need to accept I’m with Billy.” Jessie stormed away from Steve and headed inside her ma’s house. Everyone watched as Steve returned to the group and stood next to Bucky.
“Let me guess you pissed my sister off by bringing up her relationship with Billy?” Bucky calmly asked. 
“Am I that predictable?”
Both Nat and Bucky answered in unison. “Yup!”
Steve sighed, he didn’t expect to see Jessie with someone else. He had hoped this was going to be his second chance at life. That he would come back, sweep her off her feet, and apologize for what he said. With a son at home, he was hoping to get to know Ben better and be the father that he always wanted to be. With Billy and Jessie engaged he saw his future vanish before his eyes. Steve had only ever had eyes for Jessie and now that wasn’t going to be an option. He knew Jessie like the back of his hand and he knew she still had feelings for him. When Billy showed up she didn’t have the same happiness as when she introduced Ben to him. Maybe with time, there could be hope for them. Until she marries that sheriff, Steve knew he had to try with everything in him to save their fallen relationship.
