Penelope is usually the one to plan holiday parties… but after last year's spiked punch— that ruined a lot of upper agents' sobriety, which wasn’t her fault at all, the director delegated to having two random people plan it together. He pulled names from a hat that just happened to be Aaron Hotchner and Y/N Y/L/N.

She was happy to do it, and he was fine with doing it… they just weren’t happy about doing it together. The two agents couldn’t stand each other and it goes all the way back to being in the same year at the academy.

They were tied for the top of the class, duking it out to be the chosen one for Agent Rossi’s new right-hand man. And of course, it went to a man. It didn’t matter to them that she was fantastic at what she did, or that her final score was 0.2% higher than his. He was a man so he got it.

She got a job in CARD which, she liked, it was still an opportunity to solve cases and bring kids home to their parents… she just had to work with the BAU more than she liked and take orders from them. And then Rossi left, Gideon stepped down and Aaron Hotchner was the fucking Head of the BAU.

She was taking orders from him. Him and his goon squad of pretty people he picked over her.

She would’ve pushed everything aside and dealt with him, she would’ve mended things if he accepted her into the team. But he never did. After 5 applications and being looked over for everything while he hired younger and younger, she finally gave up and started to hate his guts even more.

Now she’s in the elevator, pushing the button for floor 6 and shaking the thoughts of strangling him out of her head so she can deal with him for half an hour. He’s always so busy that she’s been waiting all week just to talk about this stupid fucking party, and the only time he has is at 8:30 pm on a Friday when she should be at home.

She walks right into the bullpen, up the stairs and knocks on his door. “come in?” He calls.

“Hey,” she says with a deep sigh. “Can we talk about the party?”

“Mhm,” he nods, waving her in. “Come sit, I already have some ideas.”

“Okay…” she sits down in front of him, ignoring all his plaques and accolades and staring down at her clipboard. “I called around and there are 3 places available that are big enough to hold us, on the 3rd Saturday of the month.”

“Awesome, I already called a friend of mine with a Christmas tree farm and acquired 3 trees— Douglas furs, all pretty and big, we’ll just need a ceiling over 12 feet to house them,” he explains.

“And who’s going to decorate them?” She asks.

He shrugs, “We’ve got a big budget, we can hire someone to do it.”

“Who did Penelope use?”

“Herself,” he smiles that devilishly condescending smile. “I’m sure if we ask she’d want to help out again. She loves Christmas.”

“Did you ever figure out who spiked the punch last year?” She asks, genuinely feeling sorry for Penelope.

Penny was the only one on the team that she actually liked.

He nods, “Dax Cooper up in counter-terrorism.”

“Yeah, he’s an asshole.”

“Worse than me?” He teases. “Seriously, when are you going to stop being mad at me?”

“When you admit you hate me!” She fights back. “I did nothing to you. You’re the one who conspired with Dave and got hired here and then you purposely lost all my applications and never let me know why you wouldn’t even interview me.”

“I didn’t lose them, I put them to the side,” he shrugs. “You weren’t ready to be on our team.”

“But the walking calculator and teen Mrs. USA are?” She laughs.

“Reid and JJ are wonderful assets,” he snaps, jaw tight and eyes full of fury. “This is why I don’t want you. You wouldn’t be a team player. Not until you get rid of the attitude and accept that this job is about more than numbers. Yes, they’re young, yes you beat me by a fraction of a percent, but that doesn’t mean you have what it takes to do what we do.”

“I look at cases full of missing, dead and raped kids all day, how is that any different?” She honestly can’t believe it.

“Because you look at a screen all day with facts and witness statements and I go out into the field and I talk to parents and I deal with the cops and I don’t start fights over petty bullshit,” he reminds her. “I have never called you names or signalled you out. All you do, every time we're on a scene together, is whisper and gossip and try to undermine me. You need to grow up.”

She just shakes her head, holding in a comment that could hurt him because… and she hates to say it, but he’s right. “Whatever. Should I call one of these places and book it tomorrow or what?”

“Do whatever you want, just give me the address so I can have the trees and decorations sent over,” he honestly doesn’t care. “I trust your judgement on a caterer, I’ll pick a band… what else would we need?”

“Invitations, which I can handle,” she assures as she stands up to walk to his door. “I’ll cc you on everything and include the director for oversight. I’ll call you if I have questions.”

“Y/N,” he calls out to her before she leaves. “I’m going to be looking for a new agent in a few months…”

“And?”

“If we can work this out by then… maybe things will be different when you apply this time?” He suggests, giving her innocent eyes and genuinely meaning it.

“Okay.”

—

“Did you see her last night?” Dave asks, walking right into Aaron's office with two coffees right at 8am.

He nods, “I did… you don’t have any connections to a band I can book for Christmas, do you?”

“The Jazz club might be able to lend us some members,” he suggests. “I’ll make a call… but I take it things went well?”

“As well as they could go, she’s still so mad at me for getting this position over her,” he shakes his head. “I don’t know how to make her realize she just wasn’t ready. Our working together would’ve been awful. It would’ve—

“Ruined your marriage that just ended?” Dave teases. “I know you liked her, I saw the way you two looked at each other and I saw the teasing and the way you talked about her. She was more than a friend to you… I couldn’t have her on the team like that. I couldn’t see you go through what I did with Caroline.”

“I hate thinking about how different things could’ve been if she was on the team though,” he shakes his head and stares off out the window. “We almost broke up back then, you know? We almost never had Jack…”

“You know it’s perfectly normal for marriages not to work out, it doesn’t mean you loved her any less, it just wasn’t meant to be forever,” Dave reminds him. “You’re still friends, there’s no ill will. You never cheated, she didn’t either. You just grew apart. It happens.”

“But now I’m single and I can pursue Y/N… but she hates me,” he sighs. “I don’t think she’ll ever stop hating me.”

“Nasty hate sex is fun,” Dave teases, making them both laugh. “I’m serious… you wouldn’t believe the women I’ve—

“I know, actually,” Aaron shakes his head. “Strauss can’t look at you the same anymore.”

“Hey… that wasn’t hate, it was just indifference,” he teases.

“Whatever,” Aaron can’t help but smirk. “Can you work on the band for me?”

“I will, I’ll get them to throw in some love songs too,” Dave teases on his way out.

This was going to be interesting.

—

Two weeks of planning and emails blow by in the blink of an eye.

He gets ready for the party early, having to be there to check things over and meet the band and shake hands with the higher-ups as they arrive. He has a nice suit on, a red tie for Christmas and dark green socks that no one will ever notice. But he wants to look nice.

For her.

He walks up to her where she’s hiding in the corner. Adorning the most stunning golden dress and holding her clipboard, making sure everything gets delivered and set up in time for the start time at 7. They still have 4 hours till then, but she’s an overachiever. And a worrier. She needed this to be perfect.

She looked perfect. Like the 2000 Holiday Barbie brought to life. He’s absolutely astounded by her beauty he just stares for a moment before he says anything.

“You know, you look very pretty today,” he compliments but she doesn’t take it that way.

She looks at him like he just insulted her mother. “What?”

“That dress, it looks nice on you,” he looks her up and down. Smiling like he has some tricks up his sleeve. “What? Can’t I think you look nice? Haven’t we spent enough time talking this last month to let me compliment you?”

“Don’t you have a wife?” She asks, disgusted he’d hit on her. “And a kid?”

“We got divorced back in April,” he shrugs. “And you say you want to be a profiler, yet you haven’t looked at my hands in months?”

She looks now, noticing that he doesn’t have a ring and the tan line that should be there is long gone, which means he’s telling the truth. “Oh… sorry.”

“It’s better this way,” he nods, giving her a sweet smile. “Is everything going to plan?”

She nods too, “Yeah. Just waiting on your band… please tell me they’re good?”

He laughs, “They’re great. Dave’s got this Jazz bar he basically owns with how much money he’s spent there so they owe him one… You’ll like them.”

“Jazz, at Christmas?” She can’t believe it. “Hotch—

“Aaron,” he corrects her. “Please, for the love of god, call me Aaron again.”

“Why?” She laughs, “We’re not close.”

“Oh, come on,” he teases. “You can’t tell me that before everything went down, we didn’t have something going on? We were friendly, I almost thought you had a crush on me?”

She looks at him with a brow raised, “You thought I had a crush on you?”

He nods, “And then you found out I was married.”

“So you’re saying if you weren’t married we could’ve hooked up at the academy?” She asks. “Sounds like you liked me too, regardless of the wife.”

“No—

“Be honest,” she begs, stepping into his space even more. “If things were different- if you didn’t have a wife and we fucked back then, would you have screwed me over for the job?”

“I didn’t screw you over, I simply already knew Dave,” he finally admits after 10 long years. “I knew he was about to leave, he knew Gideon didn’t want to be in charge. He wanted someone to run the whole unit who wouldn’t choke— not saying you’d choke, he just knew I was already hard on the inside, I wasn’t going to lose my mind with all the shit we see.”

“You could’ve put in a good word for me, Aaron, I would’ve been fine working under you. I would’ve loved even just an office job in the BAU, I want to work with more than just missing kids,” she begs. “I’ve done it for 10 years, now. You know that makes me strong. You have a kid of your own, you know it’s not easy to think about them missing, let alone deal with it.”

“I know… and I was serious, I have a new position opening up and I want to give this another try,” he admits. “I want you on the team.”

She shakes her head, “how can I be on the team when this—” she points between them. “This, whatever this is, is going on?”

“The sexual tension?” He teases and she swats his arm. “We’ll be fine.”

She shakes her head. “Just, give me some time to think about it?”

“I can do that…”

—

She watches him from afar most of the night. Talking only when they needed to, like in front of the director or on stage while introducing the band and thanking everyone for being there… she was having a very hard time being in the same room as him with all she knew now.

She was still mad at him.

Mad because she’s wasted so much of her life hating him when they could’ve been happy together… but at the same time she was sad for his ex-wife. She wondered how long the marriage was loveless. Did she know? Did she suspect? Who broke it off? Does he see his son? She knew he was a good man back then but, what kind of good man has a crush on someone else while married? Would he just do that to her if they got together?

She had so many questions in her mind and they wouldn’t shut up.

He approaches her again while she’s deep in thought, staring at the floor while she sips on a drink she doesn’t even like.

“Having fun?” He asks.

She shakes her head, “No.” she puts her drink down on the table just behind her and turns back to him as he begins to speak.

“Something not going according to pl—

“Why the fuck did you have to tell me you like me?” She snaps. “I was so okay with hating you for the rest of my life because I couldn’t be on the team I always wanted to join and then you tell me you like me? That if you didn’t have a wife you’d want to be with me back then?”

He steps more into her space so they can keep their voices down and between each other, “because you deserve to know.”

“No, I don’t think so,” she fights back. “You were never worried about me being too immature for the team, you were scared you’d end up cheating on your wife with me. I didn’t even know you had a wife until I developed feelings for you. You never wore your ring to class, we spent every day sitting together in class or at the library and you came back to my dorm a few times… you pursued me as much as I was pursuing you and then you made it my fault.”

“I know, and I’m sorry,” he bows his head, ashamed. “My wife and I weren’t in a good place, we were talking about getting separated… then she got pregnant.”

“I thought Jack was only—

“We lost a couple babies before him,” he admits. “I didn’t want to be like my dad. I didn’t want to knock her up and leave her so I stayed. I stayed but I wasn’t a good dad anyway. I was always at work, I missed important things with my son and she was the one to end it because she deserved someone who wanted to be home with her and my son deserved to grow up knowing his dad wasn’t always going to be there but loves him enough to be as present as possible when he is home. I couldn’t be that when I was with his mom. we’re so much better apart, I love having weekends alone with my son and doing things we like and not worrying about fighting with his mother in front of him. And she’s happier now with her new boyfriend and Jack's happy with the prospect of a stepdad who can step up in all the areas I lack.”

“That’s a really mature thing to do for him,” she manages to give him a small, press-lipped smile. “Still doesn’t make me feel better about what you did to me.”

“I’ve wanted to tell you the truth and that I’m sorry for so long, but when we’re together it’s always a fight. I can never get an honest minute with you, you always just come in guns blazing and my instinct is to tease you back,” he admits. “I am sorry. I wish things were different. I would like to start over if you’d allow me to.”

“I don’t want a job on your team,” she says, stepping in even closer. Close enough to kiss him. “I can’t work with you like this.”

“Why?” He smirks.

“Because Strauss hates you enough as is without you fucking your subordinate,” she whispers. “I’m not throwing myself under the bus… just to be under you.”

He lunges for a kiss, pressing his lips against hers as he cups her face. She backs up slightly in surprise, bumping into the table behind herself. Aaron’s instincts are sharp, he reaches behind her and steadies it so the drink doesn’t crash against the floor and draw more attention to them. She knows the few people in this corner are already looking at them, but she doesn’t care.

This is a kiss she’s waited a decade for.

Her hands go inside his suit jacket, she reaches around to grasp his back and pulls him flush against herself. They break the kiss just to breathe, going in for another and another until their tongues meet and they’re the odd couple making out in the corner of the party.

His hand slips from her cheek to her jaw, along the side of her neck and then she pulls away, “not here,” she reminds him they’re in public and he can’t touch her anywhere he wants to.

“Sorry,” he apologizes. “How long do we have to stay here?”

“I have to stay for shutdown tonight,” she sighs. “But…. Come with me.”

She pats his side and moves past him, leading him out of the little corner they’re in and towards the main room. He follows her up a staircase, past people they both know and respect and they catch a few eyes but, she puts on a fake pissed-off look and they think she’s leading him somewhere to yell at him… cause that’s what they do.

“Hey man, where are you going?” Derek asks as they pass him and Penelope sharing a plate of hors d’oeuvres.

He’s quick on his feet, “One of the vendors fucked up, we have to chat with their boss and discuss how they can make it up to us.”

“Oh, damn, well… have fun,” he teases. Letting them go on down the small corridor towards some offices.

She leads him to the only open office she has access to, flicks on the light, lets him in and locks the door behind them. He’s quick to crowd her space, press her up against the door and grip her chin to tilt her attention up toward his eyes once more. She’s back inside his suit jacket, he’s so toasty-warm in there she can only imagine what it’ll be like to be naked with him.

“What were you saying about fucking up and making up for it?” She teases him.

He smirks, “I will… but first we need to find a way to release all that pent-up frustration we have against each other.”

She tries her best not to laugh, just shaking her head with a smile as she lets out a little huff, “Ah yes, fuck me like you hate me so we can restart fresh.”

He cups her face with both hands, eyes darkening with lust, “you’ve been such a brat for so long.”

“And I’m sure you know the cure for that?” She teases, pulling him in closer. One of her legs slips out of the slit of her dress and she brings it up to wrap around his hip, he’s quick to drop one of the hands from her cheek to grip her thigh.

“I do,” he whispers, his voice so deep it makes her stomach drop with anticipation.

He kisses her abruptly, she grips his back pulling him as if they could possibly get any closer but they can’t. Not yet. He grinds against her as their tongues meet again, his hand on her leg goes a little higher until he’s gripping her ass. The hand on her cheek starts to slip again, caressing her chest, she lightly moans into his mouth at the feeling. He’s everywhere, boxing her in against the door, but she wants more. She wants him buried deep inside of her, pounding her against the table over there, letting her know just how much he’s wanted her this whole time.

He kisses the side of her mouth, her jaw and down her neck, letting her catch her breath just to knock it all out of her again when he starts to lightly suck on her skin. “Aaron, don’t you fucking dare,” she scolds him.

“I won’t,” he speaks against her, just lightly nipping and sucking at her skin on his way down to her cleavage.

She pulls her hands out from inside his jacket to roam his shoulders until one hand ends up at the nape of his neck to play with his hair. Her head is tossed back against the door, and he kisses every inch of available skin on her chest.

He reaches down and gets both of his hands under her ass, making her jump up so he can carry her. Still kissing her neck, he moves them over to the table and sets her down. She’s just the tiniest bit taller now, he kisses her cheek again, looking her in the eye once more as he spreads her legs and runs his fingers along her thighs, realizing now she has nylons on. His hands go further, towards her aching cunt, he grips her thighs while both thumbs play with the seam of her nylons.

“I’m gonna rip these,” he announces, finding the weakest part of the seam and tearing it open enough to fit his cock through, without completely ruining them. He moves her thong to the side and drags his index finger over her clit. “You’re fucking soaked…”

She tosses her head back, both hands gripping the table like her ice depends on it when two of his fingers plunge into her. “Oh, fuck,” she moans a little too loud.

Attaching his lips to her neck again, he sucks on her pulse point while fucking her on his fingers. It’s hard and quick, covering the palm of his hand with her slick as his thumb rubs her clit. She’s always known his hands would be good for this, if nothing else.

“Please, Aaron? Oh my god,” She starts to beg.

“Words, princess,” he teases against her neck, teeth grazing her skin, his breath hot, it sends a shiver down her spine.

“Wanna cum,” she whispers, breathy and so close. “On your cock.”

“Okay,” he pulls out, bringing his hand to his mouth and licking his palm up to his fingers. He sucks them into his mouth with a groan. His cock twitches between them, jumping with excitement.

She whines again while he undoes the zipper and tugs his cock out, “please?”

“Hold on,” he spreads the excess wetness over his cock, stroking himself twice while biting his tongue. It clearly felt so fucking good but she knew her tight cunt was going to be better.

He slips in slowly and her grip changes, letting go of the counter, she wraps her legs around him and grips his back with her fingernails dug into the skin. “Better?” He whispers into her ear.

She whimpers when he doesn’t move, feeling so full, “fuck me, please? Fuck me the way I deserve.”

He hums, kissing her cheek before looking into her eyes, all watery and blown out, her mascara started to run a bit. He tilts his head to the side, “how hard?”

“Hard,” she looks him dead in the face.

He slips out, pulls her off the table and turns her around so her chest is against the cold hardwood table-top and flips her dress skirt up and out of the way. He rips her nylons even more, all the way up the back so her ass is exposed. He takes her ass cheeks in his hands and spreads her apart, amazed at how her pussy clenched in anticipation.

“Please,” she whined, almost stomping her feet with desperation.

He slams into her without warning, making her gasp loud enough to be heard by anyone wandering the hallway outside.

He pulls out a bit and slams back into her again and again and again until the noises she’s making are complete nonsense. She whines and moans and leans against the table for dear life while pushing back against him. He slaps her ass a few times, making the sound reverberate around the room like an echo.

He needs more friction, so his thrusts get less powerful and more rhythmic, he uses her like a toy bouncing her on his cock like a rag doll. She felt like her main purpose in life was to be fucked by him like this, it felt so good, it felt incredibly right, and she loved every fucking second of it. All those years of fighting paid the fuck off.

He slams into her cervix over and over, the head of his cock kissing the puckered spot inside again and again. Her hungry cunt sucks him in so deep, never wanting him to leave, and he can tell she’s close just from the way she clamps around him like a vice. He reached around to her stomach and drags his hand down her mound to rub her clit with his middle finger. The rhythm barely matches, but she loves the way it feels. It’s unpredictable, it’s all under his control, she just sits there and takes it like the good girl he’s raised her to be.

“Cum on the cock you hate so much,” he insists, “I wanna feel it. I want you to cover my cock in your cum before I fill you up to the fucking brim.”

Too fucked out to really respond she reaches one hand behind her back so he’ll hold it. He intertwines their fingers and leans forward to kiss her shoulder as his hips snap against hers with force. She starts to shake, her legs barely able to keep her up as her orgasm hits her and rattles through her body. He feels the spasm from the inside, her cunt flutters as she releases all the built-up tension in her body She’s so fucking tight he’s barely able to register his own orgasm approaching when he topples over her on the table.

He fucks into her as deep as he can go and then stills. She can feel rope after rope of his cum pump into her, they can hear the dribbles on the floor between them as it overflows and drips out of her, along with her own.

He kisses her back, breathing hard against her. She’s just trapped there under him, legs quaking in her heels, “holy fuck?”

“Sorry,” he pulls back and out of her, “shit… we didn’t think this through.”

She sighs, holding her dress up so she doesn’t make a mess. “Are there any tissues in here?”

He looks around, “Yeah… but it’s just that brown paper towel roll like we have at work.”

“It’ll do,” she shrugs. Watching him walk over to the dispenser near the sink in the corner of the room, he takes a bit out and cleans himself up quickly, putting himself back in his boxers before her gets some more.

He leans her forward again, kneeling behind her, he cleans her up to the best of his ability and then he repositions her thong. He even wipes up the floor before tossing the paper out. “I can’t believe there was so much…”

She laughs, dropping her dress back down and fluffing it so it looks normal again. “10 years worth of—

“Okay,” he shakes his head with a smirk, stepping back into her space, he wraps her up and kisses her forehead, “you did so good.”

“Thank you,” she smiles sweetly, she feels so different. There’s so much affection in her chest as she looks up at him once more. “I’m glad we got that out of the way.”

“I’ll stay with you here while they’re cleaning up,” he assures. “And maybe later I can show you how sorry I am for keeping secrets all these years?”

“I’d really like that… but I’m still not working for you,” she teases.

“I guess I’ll just have to take on more CARD cases so you’re forced to see me,” he teases right back, smiling at her.

This is going to be fun.

ROSES ARE RED, RESERVATIONS ARE EXPENSIVE, YOU'RE LUCKY I FUCKIN' LOVE YOU, gator & pearlie

summary: just a little valentines blurb for our love bugs Gator and Pearlie, a day late lmao

warnings: fluff, mentions/allusions to sex, pregnant!reader, reader referred to as pearl or pearlie extremely minimal use of y/n, gator being sweet on valentines day

series masterlist

Almost a year you and Gator had been married, and it already felt like a lifetime, but in the greatest of ways. Your little craftsman house was just buzzing with life in the past seven months, your little sisters moving in with the two of you after Gator had taken care of things with their father. You were like your own little family, school pick up and drop offs, sports and music lessons, family suppers most nights of the week. Gator would sit dutifully and help with their homework, and even downloaded games onto his Xbox to play with them and it had become your favorite weekend morning ritual to hear the three of them animatedly going about it sprawled on the living room floor, bowls of cereal haphazardly forgotten about on the coffee table.

The holidays had been fun too, Gator had dressed up with you guys as the characters from Scooby-Doo on Halloween, even going as far as to take Freddie to the groomers and have them dye his fur to look like Scooby. For Thanksgiving, he taught your sisters about football while you cooked an entire meal for your small group, his dad and Karen having spent the holiday with her parents, he even lead everyone in going around the table to say what they were thankful for, which you thought was so adorable. And Christmas? He went all out. Overboard, even. The inside of the house was all you, though he had dutifully helped you pick out a big thick Douglas Fir to fit right next to your front window, and he had helped you decorate it with your sisters, scooping both girls up even though they were much too big for it so they could both put the angel on top of the tree. He had then wrangled them outside to help him set up the yard decorations that he had spent an ungodly amount of money on just so he could make you your own winter wonderland in the front yard.

New Years had been one hell of a party, your sisters knocking out just as the clock struck midnight. You and Gator had shared a kiss and even a slow dance to ring in the new year before he looked down at the girls with his hands on his hips. You had told him to just leave them, let them sleep on the couch, but he had carries them to bed anyway, his back muscles and biceps flexing. Something about watching him be a Dad to your sisters was so mesmerizing, and maybe it was the hormones, maybe it was because your husband was just so damn hunky, but neither of you got any sleep that night as you made a compete mess of the living room couch and floor..and even the kitchen table.

You refused to call the Superbowl a holiday, something that almost cause a rift in your home as Gator had your sisters on their sides, but nonetheless you still hosted a bunch of his highschool and work buddies. You and a few of the wives and girlfriends had gotten started talking about valentines day, especially the ones with kids who has been given lists of things for class room parties (you had yet to see a magical list but you were sure it would appear soon), which caused the guys to start talking about how annoying and unnecessary Valentines day was, among the voices you heard your own husband say something about how manly it was.

Which was why you were surprised to wake up on February the 14th to a bouquet of roses on the pillow next to your head. You hadn't even mentioned Valentines day to Gator, let alone dropped hints. You figured you'd save the big show of love and appreciation for your anniversary in June. You groan as you sit up, racing to your feet to once you catch sight of the time on your alarm clock, you run to the girls' room, they were an hour late getting up, school started in ten minutes. You had your fist raised to knock on the door when you noticed a piece of paper taped to it, Gator's messy scrawl on it.

You rip it from the door and hold it in your hands as you read it. 'Pearlie, hope you liked the flowers, took the girls to school so you could sleep in a bit..be back soon- G'

You could have sworn Gator said he had to work today. Confused, you shuffle back to your bedroom, making up your bed as neatly as you could, the white and red heart shaped duvet covering the entire king sized mattress. You rearranged the pillows too before grabbing the bouquet and shuffling back down the hallway, to the kitchen.

You're filling a pretty pink vase with water and trimming the ends of the flowers when the front door opens. "Baby, is that you?" Roy had made a habit of just walking into your home here lately, and the last time he'd done it you'd been naked, trying to surprise your husband.

You squeal loudly when large, warm arms encircle you, pulling you back against a chest as hands make their way to your slowly rounding belly. "Happy Valentines, pearlie girl.." He murmurs, kissing under your ear gently, you can feel the smile on his face as you tilt your head to the side, making more room for his lips to work.

"Thought Valentines wasn't manly?" You breathed, eyes closing briefly as his lips brushed over the spot where your shoulder meets your neck, where you seem to be sporting a constant love bite here lately.

He grins against your skin, rocking in place with you. "S'not." He whispers, turning you around slowly in his arms so that he can plant sweet little kisses all over your face. "Just want to show my girl how much i love her..that so wrong?" You can't help giggle at his words, knowing that he showed you more than enough love every day.

You open your mouth to tease him when he catches your lips with his own, a slow, deep kiss, all tongue and sweetness that leaves you whimpering when he pulls away from you. "I got you somethin' baby.." He says, voice still quiet even though you're the only ones in the house.

"I know baby, they were beauti-oh!" From somewhere behind him, the back pocket of his jeans you think, he pulls out a small velvet box and opens it. "Gator! Baby.."

Inside of the box was a beautiful gold necklace in the shape of a G, inlaid with a bunch of dazzling diamonds. Your eyes watered as you looked at it. "Aw hell," He breathes, the corners of his lips quirking up in a smile as he watches your reaction. You had been doing that alot lately, and he knew you couldn't help it, hormones and all that. He thought it adorable though, that you turned into a cry baby over the smallest of things. "Had the girls go in with me to pick it out a couple weeks ago..we stopped and picked it up on the way to school this mornin'.."

He took it out of the box and unclasped the chain, placing it securely around your neck, a loving smile on his face as he did. Immediately your hand was on it, fingers gliding over the letter. His eyes were drawn to your nails, he had remembered you saying you got them done yesterday but didn't remember looking at them to compliment you on your choice. "You get these for today?" He asks, taking hour hand in his. You nod as he brings your fingers up to his lips kissing them gingerly before kissing the knuckle above your wedding ring. "The little red hearts are cute..d'i wana know how much they cost?" He didn't care, he loved to keep your hands looking pretty, loved the way your manicured nails looked when they were wrapped around his own hand, or his cock..

You shake your head at his words, wiping away the tears with the other hand as you remember what was in your nightstand drawer. "Wait, hold on I'll be right back!" You say, rushing off in a hurry.

"You sick or somethin'?" He follows you quickly, making sure you didn't need his help. You hadn't had morning sickness in nearly a month, he was hoping you were past it, and he was relieved to find you bent over the drawer of your nightstand, your silky white shorts giving him a perfect view of your ass. "Bab- oh hon you didn't have to get nothin' for me..this day is about you.."

You shake your head, bouncing excitedly. "No baby, it's to celebrate love..its for both of us!" You exclaim, taking the lid off of the small box in your hand. He gasps when he sees it, and you can't help but grin.

"Pearl, baby.." It was a black watch, metal. The clockface was silver, a cold color despite the deep black you had chosen. You didn't know much about watches, but you knew that he liked them, and you knew that this was a nice one.

"Flip it over.." He does as you say as he takes it out of the box, his eyebrows furrowing as he reads the inscription on the watch case. "Forever your Valentine..'

He takes the old watch off to slip the new one on, it's a perfect fit. "I fuckin' love you baby.." He pulls you into a kiss by the back of your head, his large hand holding you firmly in place as your hands find purchase on his broad chest. "I have one more surprise okay?"

You pout, eyebrows furrowed.

"Need you t'dress real fuckin pretty for me tonight baby," You pout even harder this time, tears coming to your eyes. Did you not look pretty all the time? What did he mean? As if he could read your mind his face changes and he immediately starts wiping your tears. "Ah ah, baby, you know I don't mean it like that..you're always lookin' real pretty for me babygirl, but tonight I need you to look extra fuckin' nixe..takin you to that place in the city.."

You squeal and jump in your place, jumping up and wrapping your legs around his waist as you kiss his face repeatedly. You catch him off guard but he still puts his hands under your ass, supporting you. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" You chant excitedly, arms wrapped tightly around him. He hoped to have you chanting that later tonight too, in a different way, preferably followed by his name. He can't help but grin at the thought as you jump off of him, running over to your closet as you try to find an outfit that even fits your barely there baby bump, but still looked sexy.

"Rose's are red, reservations are expensive, you're lucky I fuckin' love you!" Gator rhymes horribly just so he can hear your giggle from the depths of Narnia that you call a closet.

"I love you too baby!"

Two years ago, Jason was sitting stiff in a family sweater, trying to hold a perfect smile while the photographer snapped picture after picture.

This year, Robin and Heather produce a polaroid camera and manage to capture him and Eddie cuddling under the glow of the tree.

Two years ago, Jason and his brothers would have to help wrestle the giant Douglas fur tree to the front of the house so that it could be seen by the whole neighborhood.

This year, Eddie had dragged home the tree in his van. “The department store was getting rid of it from last years Christmas display, can you believe it?? And it’s black! I fished it out of the trash!”

Two years ago, Jason felt like he could barely breathe at Christmas time for all the pressure. Christmas was a time to be perfect, and he never felt like he could measure up.

This year, he and Eddie decorated the tree while Metallica played. Eddie had spent a lot of his childhood with his Jewish mother, so the concept of what did and what didn’t belong on a Christmas tree didn’t apply to him. “I think my cassettes look pretty in the branches, Jace. Get some of yours.”

Two years ago, Jason couldn’t have imagined making nice with the freak.

This year he cringes when he remembers it, running a hand along Eddie’s arms as they circle around him. “I love you, Eddie. You know that, right?”

Two years ago, Jason felt like he was on top of the world.

This year, he knows what being on top of the world really means.

Two years ago, Chrissy was stiff on his arm at the church social, looking like a stiff wind could blow her over.

This year, she’s pink cheeked and soft, holding Patrick’s hand while they listen to Dustin babble on about something.

Two years ago, Jason couldn’t have imagined that there were any queer people in town. To be perfectly honest he thought he was totally alone.

This year, they go over for a party and Billy and Steve’s place, and no one bats an eye when Jason and Eddie excuse themselves to do Eddie’s T shot in the bathroom.

Two years ago, Jason couldn’t have imagined having a black tree, or a real boyfriend or any of this stuff.

This year, he snuggles up to Eddie and hums along when Eddie gets all the words to the Christmas tunes wrong on purpose.

“God rest ye Merry Wintertime, let nothing you dismay. Remember Jace our savior, who fucked on Christmas Day…”

“Eddie, oh my god!”

“To give us all to satan’s power and lead us all astray,” Eddie cried out, tugging Jason into a dance, “Oh-oh, tidings of rock and or roll, rock and or roll, oh TIDINGS OF ROCK AND OR ROLL!”

“I love you. Weirdo.”

“I love you. Dork.”

❄️Enchanted AU: Christmas Part 17❄️

Its Thursdaaayyyy. Excited to post this behemoth of a chapter, its one of my faves :)))))))

Part 1 | Christmas Parts 14 | 15 | 16

Part 17

Daniel turned on a Christmas playlist on Max's Spotify… that Daniel made him get after Max admitted that he didn't use a streaming service. He YouTubes songs he wants to listen to.

Daniel had looked at him with the same level of disgusted curiosity that Martin normally looked at him with when this topic came up. And unlike what happened with Martin, Max blushed.

So now he had a Spotify account and his algorithm would immediately be filled with Christmas music.

The tree had come in that morning and Daniel had then gleefully lined out the decorations they had bought. Max watched the method to his madness; there was a package set down by the fireplace, a package by the door and the remaining packages settled near the tree.

Jimmy sniffed the new additions, walking up and inspecting the lowest branches of the Douglas Fir. Sassy sniffed the packages of baubles before jumping on the mantle to oversee the tree decoration. Daniel lifted Jimmy into his arms and kissed the cat's head a few times before placing him gently into the couch.

With the music going and the cats safely out of the way, Daniel started unpacking baubles, tinsel and lights while humming and swaying. Max unpacked the wreath by the door and hung it on the outside by the readymade hook. He came back inside to find Daniel already tangled in lights.

“Help.” Daniel giggled and Max huffed out a breath, he knew not to ask when Daniel got into small clumsy situations. Sometimes he just doesn't pay enough attention, and that was ok. Max helped him unravel the lights from himself and onto the tree. They laughed together as Daniel twirled this way and that to untie himself from his bindings.

“If you were taken captive, at least you would have something to do “ Max joked as they used the attached remote to decide which flicker setting to leave the lights on.

“A very festive kidnapping. Very like home alone.”

“Is that the one with the neglected child that gets left behind at home?”

Daniel dissolved into giggles at the very apt description of a Christmas classic. “That's the one!” He gasped. “They made it like all the way to Paris too before they noticed. Like how?!”

They continued to bicker and tear the movie plot apart while they worked. At some point glasses of wine were poured. The music changed from the traditional carols to more jazzy mood music versions that Max decided he preferred. He sat on the couch sipping from his glass as Daniel danced around the living room, a rope of gold tinsel wrapped around his shoulders like a shawl.

Max laughed joyously when Daniel plunked down his glass to instead scoop up Jimmy as a dancing partner. Sassy jumped out the way, burrowing into Max’s woven sweater to hide. She trusted that he wouldn’t betray her to dance.

“Don’t worry Sassy girl, you’re safe right here.” Max stroked down Sassy’s back before honing back in on Daniel’s twirling form. In the twinkling lights of the almost finished tree, the warm glow of the fireplace, surrounded by open packages of all sizes and giggling merrily at a surly cat, Max couldn’t think of anyone more beautiful.

He looked away quickly, lest Daniel see that his face was maybe doing something it shouldn’t be in his presence– like baring his soul. He looked down at Sassy instead, who was now curled on her back and presenting her belly to him. She looked at him with her knowing eyes and he looked away again, stroking her soft fur.

“Oh Jimmy you’re no fun!” Daniel cooed, letting the bengal down to skitter away onto the other side of the couch. He turned his smiling eyes to Max who looked up at him like a sunflower turned to the sun. “Would you like to dance, Maxy?” He asked almost hesitantly, clearly bolstered by the wine flowing through him. Sassy jumped off of his lap quickly– as if he told her they were going to the vet, and Max thinks he found his answer.

He got up and watched as Daniel’s smile widened impossibly. Max decided that he liked these smiles, he liked them the most since they happened because of him. He took Daniel’s hand and twirled him around, Daniel laughed a honking laugh and made a show of it. The music was lively enough to warrant the hijinks.

Eventually the music slowed down and the dulcet harmonies of ‘White Christmas’ played through the speaker system. Daniel made to step out of Max’s hold but Max’s grip on his hand tightened. Max pulled him in closer with a smile and Daniel’s cheeks reddened further. He rested his head on Max’s chest, following as Max swayed them along. Max rested his cheek on the top of Daniel’s head, he wanted this moment to last forever. This was a moment for them alone.

Daniel’s eyes slipped closed as he let the feeling wash over him. The song was one of his favourites, he’d always thought it was a fantastical dream to have snow during Christmas. Sure he’s seen snow during the wintertime when they went on family trips, but Christmas was during the summer back home, so a white Christmas was highly unlikely. He and Michelle would always sigh and wonder what it would be like to wake up on Christmas morning to snow. And Daniel learned a little trick that he would do for just the two of them. Clenching his closed eyes, he whispered a song, muffled into Max’s sweater. He hoped Max would like it, no one other than Michelle has ever seen this. Max’s gasp told him that his magic worked. Daniel looked up to see Max’s face upturned in wonder.

Max was speechless, all around them were small soft lights– different from the cleaning lights– fluttering to the ground like snow. They floated sedately like a light sprinkling snowfall that didn’t touch the ground. He watched as the cats tried to sniff the snow lights before seemingly turning to mush. Max looked down to find Daniel already looking up at him through his lashes.

Daniel’s eyes sparkled in the warm light of the tree, Max could see the distinct outer ring of brown and the warm honey that trapped him within. Daniel licked his lips and Max followed the motion, watched as Daniel’s wine stained mouth glistened in the light. He wanted to kiss him, so badly. He’d give up his trophies to feel what Daniel’s lips felt like against his.

He could find out. Right here.

Max leaned in, eyes never leaving Daniel’s…

Chaos.

There was the sound of a phone ringing– piercing the atmosphere of the room. Immediately followed by the screeching hiss of Jimmy and the sound of glass crashing to the ground and breaking. Max and Daniel sprung apart and both ran to the scene of the crime.

Max’s phone continued to ring, burrito’d up in the blankets on the couch. Daniel scooped Jimmy into his arms and began to hum a melody to soothe the frightened cat. In his fear he had hit over Max’s empty glass onto the carpeting. Max answered his phone and tucked it between his cheek and shoulder while he worked the coffee table off of the area rug.

“Hello?” Max tried very hard to not sound rude, he wasn't sure he succeeded though. He did succeed in rolling the rug up and taking it into the guest bathroom.

“Max!” Alex’s joyous voice rang through clearly. There was a lot of chatter in his background, as if he was at a party.

“Where are you mate! Are you coming to the tree lighting?!” Lando yelled in the background

“The tree lighting? It's tonight?” Max stood in surprise in the bathroom, he looked at his watch seeing that it was also pretty late in the evening.

“Of course it's tonight! Are you guys coming or what?” Alex chuckled, they knew how frazzled Max had become in recent weeks and loved taking the piss out of him for his distraction.

“Uhm, yeah sure. We’re on our way.” Max hung up before Alex could say anything else, he walked back into the living room to see Daniel swaying to the music whispering softly to Jimmy who was curled completely in his hold. The tinsel shawl from before hung limply off one shoulder. Max cursed silently, wishing they could go back to five minutes ago.

“Is everything ok?” Daniel looked up with concern. His oversized tshirt almost looked like a dress on him, completely covering his shorts.

“The tree lighting, it's tonight. The guys are there.” Max got his mouth to work. Daniel’s eyes widened as he gasped.

“I thought it was next week! Oh no!” He was no doubt thinking of how he promised the boys they would go, thinking of how disappointed Luka and Lio might be. Max really wanted to kiss him.

“Do you still want to go?” Max was ok with staying in, if that's what Daniel wanted.

“I mean… we may as well right?” Daniel bit his lip and furrowed his brow a little. He felt bad.

“Then you should put on pants, I think. It will be cold.” Max teased, Daniel stuck his tongue out at him before scampering off to his room. Max shook his head good naturedly and set about putting the living room to some semblance of rights. He turned off the music, and the fireplace. Then he put Daniel’s wine glass in the sink. Finally, he turned off the lights on the tree. Tomorrow they could finish decorating and clean everything up.

He was putting on his shoes when Daniel came out of the bedroom. He had put on a pair of black skinny jeans and his vans. But no sweater or jacket. Max’s brow furrowed.

“You’ll be cold.” He pointed out, and Daniel blushed before covering his face with his palm, his curls flopped forward.

“I need to do laundry, I don’t have any clean sweaters. I’ll be fine.” He muttered with a shrug. Max rolled his eyes, knowing that Daniel would shiver the moment they walked into the elevator. He shook his head and walked past Daniel back to his bedroom. He grabbed a sweater from his closet and walked back out of his room with it held in front of him for Daniel to take.

Daniel’s blush deepened as he ducked his head into the thick fabric, the navy sweatshirt was perfectly oversized and smelled like Max.

“Thanks.” He said shyly, ducking his head to covertly sniff the collar and get enveloped in Max’s scent again.

“Bwoah, don’t mention it.” Max fanned his words away, it was nothing. He just didn’t want Daniel to be uncomfortable. Max opened the front door and stepped out first, Daniel skipped out after him and down the short hallway to the lift. Max watched him go quietly, the sight of Daniel in his clothes burned in the back of his eyelids.

Day 11: Tree Hunting

Summary: fluff with Manny x Reader

"Stay close Princesa" called Manny as his daughter disappeared in between the tree branches. "Just like her father always running off" you joked as you shook your head. "Hey" stated Manny pretending to be offended as he pulled you closer and kissed your forehead. "I always come back to my Queen" he whispered as he squeezed your hand. "True" you murmured as you glanced up at him with a soft smile.

"I found one" your daughter called from further down the tree lined aisle drawing your attention back to her. "Be right there" you called as the two of you strolled hand in hand to where your daughter stood staring up at a gigantic Douglas Fur. "Oh, thats a big Boy" mumbled Manny as he looked at it his eyes wide. "You told me I could pick daddy" pouted your daughter as she turned to him her bottom lip trembling. Manny looked to you his eyes pleading for assistance but you simply shook your head as you covered your mouth to contain your laughter.

Manny sighed he had gotten himself into this one. Manny picked up your daughter and walked around the tree as he contemplated his next move. The moment he came back into view with his signature smirk you knew he had something ridiculous planned. "What do my two favorite ladies say about getting two trees? This one for the yard and another small one for the house?" he asked as your daughter cheered and he smiled at you.

Laughing and shaking your head you kissed his cheek. "You know the word no wont kill me or her right?" you questioned with a raised brow as your daughter ran to find another smaller tree. "I cant be too careful with my treasures" replied Manny as he pulled his phone out of his pocket. "Better make a couple calls and see if anyone can come help me load these trees" he stated as he kissed you lightly.

For the tree ask game: Ginko, douglas-fur, and pawpaw

Gingko: What part of your story is the oldest, has stuck around from that original idea?

For The Alliance Saga, since this is commissioned work that was originally based on a roleplay, there are still a few plot points for the original roleplay that stuck around! We did change up a lot of things and move the order around a bit, but several events are still in place from ~15 years ago.

Douglas-Fir: What's something in your story that pretends to be something its not?

So many things in Familiar Ties are disguised as something else. Kind of ties in to one of the major questions raised in the plot being "Should magical creatures reveal themselves to humanity or stay hidden?". My personal favorite is the soul of one of the last living dragons being transformed into a mural on the walls of the Morgana Institute; it can move and comes alive to defend the castle from attack when needed.

Pawpaw: How do you name your characters?

Sometimes characters come to me with their names already generated. Otherwise I'll look into the character's background (ethnicity, time period, any family traditions that might factor in) and then pick something I think suits their role or personality. Example: Ann is a very simplistic and common name for a seemingly unassuming character; it also means "favored by god" because...well, if you've read Like Falling Stars, you know.

Crazy weather. Suddenly lots of snow.

have high wind warnings.

See lots of trees are down from weight of snow. With the winds coming up? Probably will lose power.

Back to carry chainsaw in your car and chains to pull fallen trees away.

Last year I had to deal with a Douglas fur tree that snapped 30 feet from the top. The width was almost to my chest. Had to cut that up with untreated mg. That was bad. At least I have medication now.

You find a way even when a way isn't clear.

Oh hell I am rambling and forgot the point I was trying to make.

I guess be prepared for what happens.

Be safe.

Find your way.

Durability Of Douglas Fir

Douglas Fir is an excellent choice for outdoor use due to its exceptional durability. It withstands harsh weather conditions and maintains its strength, making it a reliable option for outdoor structures and furniture. Natural Durability Douglas Fir is known for its natural durability, making it an excellent choice for outdoor use. The heartwood of this tree species is resistant to decay and insect damage, making it highly suitable for various exterior applications. This natural durability stems from the tree's protective resin content, which acts as a deterrent against harmful elements and extends its lifespan. When used in outdoor projects such as decks, fences, or garden furniture, Douglas Fir can withstand exposure to the elements, including rain, snow, and UV rays without significantly deteriorating. Its ability to resist decay and rot ensures that your outdoor structures remain sturdy and reliable for years to come. Treatment Options In addition to its natural durability, Douglas Fir can be further enhanced through various treatment options. These options include surface treatments and preservative treatments, both of which can help improve the wood's resistance to moisture, decay, and insects. Surface treatments involve applying a protective layer or finish to the wood, creating a barrier against moisture while enhancing its visual appeal. This layer can include paint, stain, or sealers, each with its own unique advantages and aesthetics. Care should be taken to select a treatment that is suitable for outdoor use and designed to withstand the specific environmental conditions of your location. Preservative treatments, on the other hand, involve impregnating the wood with specialized chemicals that penetrate deep into the fibers. These treatments protect against wood-boring insects, fungi, and decay, further enhancing the wood's natural durability. It is important to opt for preservatives that are specifically formulated for outdoor applications to ensure maximum effectiveness and longevity. By combining the natural durability of Douglas Fir with appropriate treatment options, you can significantly enhance its resistance to the elements, prolonging its lifespan and maintaining its visual appeal. Proper maintenance and regular inspections are key in ensuring the ongoing durability of any outdoor structure made from Douglas Fir.
