- 🎀

Heyyy 🎀 anon! Good to see you again, I haven’t heard a lot from you lately though :< anyway, thanks for the support and the idea, excuse me for a second. JAKOAKSKA DAZAI IN UGHH MAID DRESSES AHHH, SO CUTE OH GODDDD

Dom!reader x sub!character - reader is gender neutral

Warning: teasing, hair pulling, lingerie, role play (master/ servant), touching inappropriately, clothed sex? (A tiny bit)

Edit: this ended up being sexual tension without actually getting to the fucking part - ig it’s cuz I write dick in dick out too often so I like writing the foreplay aspect more :’)

“What’s this?” You asked, curiosity peeked when you saw dazai hiding behind a locked room. He’s been staying there for at least 15 minutes now with the door shut tight, leaving you clueless. “It’s a surprise~!” Whenever you’d ask questions related to whatever he was doing, he’d give the same reply. Did he really need to make this so mysterious? Today wasn’t even a special day, so why was he being silly again?

Defeated, you sighed and simply went to the kitchen to grab something. Then you made your way over to the couch, deciding to wait until he’s ready. There wasn’t much you could do other than this. Another minute passed, and you finally heard the sound of locks getting unlocked. Your eye went immediately to the door, staring with anticipation. To your surprise, it was actually him. It took you a moment to properly grasp the situation.

There he was, standing in the door frame all confident like always. This wouldn’t have been surprising if it weren’t for the nice looking outfit he wore, which was a maid costume? A black top with long sleeves paired with an ankle long skirt in the same colour, as well as a white, pretty extravagant or frilly apron. The apron hung from his shoulders and has been tied around his waist, creating a ribbon behind him. He also had a headband on his head, along with some gloves. The outfit would have looked professional if it weren’t for the many excessive ribbons decorating the dress, like the ones on his sleeves or headband, as well as his heels.

It’d be an understatement to say your jaw dropped and you were flabbergasted. Sure, you had some ideas what he could have being doing in that room, and this idea has come across your mind before. Even so seeing it in person was still shocking to say the least. With his usual confidence he carried himself over to you, which was impressive even if the heels weren’t that tall. He stopped in front of the couch and did a few twirls. The dress fluttered around in an elegant fashion, captivating your attention.

“It looks great..” you whispered, eyeing him up and down. The outfit was really pretty and refined, it gave off high class vibes. “Of course it is, I picked it out for you,” dazai said with a smug look on his face, before kneeling down and resting his head in your lap. Despite the reality, you had troubles believing dazai really brought this. Knowing him, he would have gotten something more erotic instead of settling down for elegance.

For a while, none of you moved. He kept nuzzling against you while you stroke his hair gently. Until you grabbed his wrist and slipped your index finger inside his gloves. “There must be more to why you wore this, no?” The brunette didn’t have an ounce of surprise on his features, he has been expecting such a reaction from you. “There is no deeper meaning to this, did you wish there were some?” At the same time your hand kept advancing, though he let you do so without any resistance. Now you were slowly slipping the glove off of him. Those were latex gloves, how mischievous of him, or should you rather say thoughtful?

You shook the glove in your hand a little, getting rid of the folds. He watched you do so, revealing a moment of vulnerability to you. Making use of that small frame, you suddenly tugged at his hair, making him throw his head back. “Err..?” A small yelp left him, this position made him arch his back too. The headband fell off and his eyes were now glued to your hand holding his glove. Since when was it so close to your lips? It was your dominant hand too.

Slowly, without rushing it, you put on the glove, all while tugging at his hair with your other hand. Then you bit the end of the fabric and pulled it down, wearing it. Your gaze didn’t leave his for a moment. Noticing how he had a slightly dumbfounded expression. “What’s wrong, dazai?” You cooed, though it almost seemed like you were mocking him. Before he could say anything in opposition, you continued, “oh dear, stand up, or the outfit might get dirty.” What a roundabout way of giving him orders.

The male obeyed, standing up slowly and leaving the headband on the floor. With each moment spend here in your presence, the tension seemed to increase. He grabbed the end of his apron, waiting for your instructions, smiling excitingly. “You know you can just order me around, master.” Dazai teased, wanting to push your buttons. This game of tug was balanced, none of you wanted to fold first. “I’m just your maid after all.” He added, now holding the skirt and raising it, giving you a small glimpse of his legs while he bowed. Stockings. You saw stockings. Was he perhaps wearing lingerie underneath it..? It’d make sense, considering how long he took in that damned room.

“Haha..” you chuckled a little, he seems to have caught onto your little challenge. The hint you dropped was too obvious huh? If that’s the case, time to speed things up. Once again you surprised him, this time by grabbing his waist and changing your positions. Pushing him down to sit on the couch while you were hovering above him, pressing a knee against his clothed crotch. “Hmm~! Hey now.. that’s not fair.” He gasped, breathing heavily. “I’m your master, not a fair player.” That answer seems to have shut him up. His hands grabbed your leg, you weren’t sure what he was trying to do. Moving your knee away or pressing it down?

Nevertheless you had to move it out of the way for your next move, so you did that. A disappointment whine followed from the male. “No need to get all needy already, I’m just getting started.” You smirked and your weaker hand held his dress up, revealing the real surprise he had been hiding. “Ops~ I guess you exposed me~?” He grinned, as if he didn’t plan this from the very start. Your prediction was right, he did wore some nice looking undergarments for you. Black lace covered his smooth legs, up until his thighs. From there on it was attached to his panties by a string, all of it black and laced.

“The fabric is pretty uncomfortable you know?” Dazai voice his thoughts, pulling a pitiful facade. Of course you knew what he was implying, which is why you deliberately ignored it. He just loved this power struggle between you two. Even though he knew exactly where his place was, he just wanted to rile you up. Without answering his previous statement, you moved your hand to his back. At least you tried, the apron was preventing you from doing so. That’s why you settled for his sacrum, caressing that part gently before moving lower and groping his butt.

A squeak filled with anticipation escaped him, feeling the latex rub against his skin. Soon the cheeky smile turned into a seductive one, melting with pleasure all due to your touch. His entrance clenching while his dick slowly got hard, rubbing against the cute panties. How he wished to just beg you to fuck him senseless, but that would spoil the fun, no? Yet all this foreplay was making him impatient~ what should he do? In the end, he settled on whispering with a pleading tone, “oh, master, please make this servant dirty.”

REBLOGS ARE HIGHLY APPRECIATED

Minors DNI

3000 Follower Celebration

With five kids, three of which were just under two, it was almost impossible to have a moment alone with your husband and when you did, there was never enough time for sex. So when there was a 10 minute gap between dropping Jon off at the Wayne’s and picking up the triplets from daycare, Clark wanted to take full advantage.

You were looking down at your shopping list, mentally going over all the things you would need for the week when suddenly the mini van swerved and you were thrown against the passenger door. “Clark!” But your husband wasn’t listening. Instead he was directing the car down an empty road off of the private lane from Wayne Manor. Once he felt you were far enough from the main road, he shut off the engine and turned to you.

“Take off your pants, get in the back.”

“Clark no. We have things to do.” He pouted.

“Yeah I know, you’re on my to-do list. See.” He pulled out his phone and showed you his notes app, where at the top it said ‘to-do list’ with a simple ‘eat my wife’s pussy’ right under. You sighed heavily through your nose. Clark was almost glaring at you with a determination you had only seen him use in the most dire of circumstances.

Damn those big blue eyes. You glanced down at your phone and made a note of the time. “You have five minutes.” The click of the seatbelt releasing and his large hands on your wide hips were your only warning before you found yourself in the very back of the car, with your lower half completely naked.

He nestled his broad shoulder between your plump thighs and pressed his face to your core. You sagged against the seats as he pushed the tip of his nose against your clit like he was trying to breathe you in. You tangled your fingers in his curls as you used your dominant hand to pick up your phone once more. The shopping list was slowly getting longer as Clark took his sweet time lapping at you but not doing much more than that.

“Oh remind me that we need to pick up some more laundry detergent for Conner, I’m pretty sure he’s been using your mom’s. And the girls need glitter from some project the day care wants to do. And Diana mentioned- ow! What the fuck! Did you just bite me!” And sure enough, Clark pulled away from your inner thigh where a nice deep indent of his teeth now lay in your soft skin. A smug grin pulled at his lips, the same grin that resulted in you birthing four big-headed babies.

“Will you just shut up and let me go down on you? I haven’t tasted this perfect little pussy in almost a month and I know that we both need it.” He begged and scooted closer so he could rest his cheek on your mound. “Please just forget all of that shit for five minutes and let me make you feel good.”

Your hand fell from his hair to his jaw, stroking the stubble that he hadn’t had time to get rid of. “Okay okay. I guess you’re right, it has been a while and we’re both a bit pent up.” He smiled at you, kissing the tips of your fingers.

“Of course I’m right! Now let me get to work.” And then he threw your legs over his shoulder and got down to business.

Long story short, you were 20 minutes late picking up your toddlers.

Request: Can I please request number 20 with clark kent, pretty please?

The Ackerman Family

( // fluff headcanon // ) ( // AFAB // )

Summary: Everyone never expected THE Levi Ackerman to get married and have a family of 2 kids with you.

You were cooking and making lunch for your 3 year old daughter to pack with you, "are you excited to meet daddy?" Cooing down as your baby daughter was drawing and coloring on some papers right by the kitchen table, "dada!!" She exclaimed excitingly, giggling and eyes shining excited to see her daddy. Once you were done cooking for you and your 3 year old daughter, you started pumping out breast milk to baby bottles for you 8 months old baby who was soundly sleeping beside his big sister. Softly smiling st the sigh of your two children.

Once you successfully filled 2 bottles of your breast milk, you packed your things and headed out.

Since your husband Levi was the Captain of the Scouts of the Survey Corps, they offered you a personal carriage and a driver for when you want to go somewhere without heading there by foot, this was very useful when you visited Levi a couple times when you were pregnant of your 3 year old daughter, Kuchel.

When you were pregnant of your baby son Kenny, you didn't have the strength to visit Levi from time to time for having a 2nd baby was a lot harder than the first, sometimes Hange and Rico would visit you instead to help around cause sometimes Levi doesn't have time to come home, would sleep in his sleeping quarters sometimes.

"Ah Mrs Ackerman, need a lift?" The driver asked as he got down from his seat at front opening the carriage's door, "yes, to the HQ of Survey Corps please" "right away Mrs Ackerman" as your stuff was all inside the carriage, he closed the door shut, you closed the curtains inside as you slowly started feeling the carriage moving.

It took a few minutes reaching there, Kuchel was asleep on your left, her small head on your lap as Kenny in your arms, wide awake and alert, playing with your hair and holding the hem of your dress by the chest area, asking for his breast milk, "good thing I packed 2" you reached down carefully to grab the bottle without waking up Kuchel, once you handed the bottle to Kenny he began getting his fill as his baby face softens, enjoying his meal, "you look so much like your father" you whispered as you kissed his head and lightly boop his small but pointy nose, seeing he has the same nose as Levi.

Kuchel and Kenny has the features of the father while the skin complexion and the hair color is yours.

"We're here Mrs Ackerman" the driver faintly said outside as he opened the door, helping with the stuff, putting it inside the front doors of the HQ, you gave him your thanks before paying him, he bowed a little before heading back to his seat up front, parked somewhere so that when you need to come home, he's just there.

"(Y/n)?? Hey!!"

Hearing a familiar voice calling your name, seeing it was Hange, she had a bright smile on her face seeing her Godchildren, "Nini Hange!" Kuchel said as she made grabbing hands reaching for her, Hange picking her up twirling her around before lightly tickling her stomach, "you pretty little thing how are you?" "Good! I missed you Nini Hange"

"I missed you even more sugar!"

She lifted her head and walked towards you with Kuchel resting on her hip, cooing silently at baby Kenny drinking your breakfast, he was smiling through the bottle, having grabbing hands towards Hange's ponytail, "they've gotten so big! Time is moving way too fast" with a sad tone but happy as she kissed Kuchel's cheek before putting her down holding her hand, as she held your other hand, making her in between you two walking inside further, being met with the Mess Hall.

"I figure you prepared your own food?" She asked as you nodded showing her the bags of food she has cooked and packed, "I made you some rice balls and rolled egg Hange" she exclaimed hearing that as they sat down, you handed baby Kenny to her to hold for a while as you grab the food, hearing fake fart noises and cooing at Hange's side as cute innocent giggles was heard.

"Here you go" opening the bento box filled with delicious delicacies, Hange has her mouth drooling a little from the smell of everything in the bento box.

Going around the table to get baby Kenny as he's almost done drinking his breast milk, Hange happily thanked the food and digged in the delicacy, "hey there hot momma" you heard another familiar face seeing Nanaba greeting you and Hange who waved at her with her mouth full, "hello Nanaba, long time no see" she kneeled down and used her index finger to play a little with baby Kenny as he finished drinking his meal.

"They're getting big fast, gosh. It's been so long if feels" she said as she stood up and sat beside you as chatter was soon filling up the table you all sat in.

After some minutes past, lunch break was immense, seeing the young teenager cadets chattering and walking in, laughter, tired sighs, complaints, bickering. It filled the Mess Hall as others grabbed their trays of food as well.

"Hange, I'll be visiting my husband's office, where is it?"

She swallowed her food and gestures her hands as she spoke, "go down the hall, there's stairs leading to the higher ups offices, Levi's in at the end" she gave you a soft smile as you bid Hange and Nanaba a "see you later" and asked them to look after the other stuff you brought since you will come back there, they smiled and nodded giving you a thumbs up.

You carried Kenny on your right arm while holding onto Kuchel's hand, walking out of the Mess Hall down the hall way, saw there was stairs, your daughter went up first and you followed, glad it was only 1 flight of stairs, seeing familiar faces of people who're in the halls of the offices.

"(Y/n)?"

"Miche hello!" You took deep breathes in and out to steady your breathing, his stern eyes soften seeing the two kids, "is that Kuchel and Kenny?" He asked as he pointed at them, you giggled and nodded, seeing him staring at them a little, admiring how cute they look, "they really do like Levi" he softly says as Kenny was softly and lightly gripping Miche's index finger as he tried to poke him. "My husband has been talking about us?" He nods and sighs placing his hands on his hips, "tell me about it, when he's stress he takes his wallet out, finding the baby pictures of them and the photo of your wedding day"

Your heart softens as Miche spoke, you looked over your left of him to see a familiar figure, you smiled seeing his soft ebony hair, his clean undercut, the Wings of Freedom jacket as he spoke to Erwin, he looked at your direction nudging Levi to look behind him.

As he did, it felt like the world stopped for a second, seeing your beautiful face, later his eyes fell upon his children as Kuchel ran down the hallway reaching out for Levi's arms, he had a huge smile on his face, his previous serious stern look vanished seeing you and his children, once your daughter finally hugged Levi, he lifted her up before hugging her again, her small arms and legs wrapped around her father's neck and torso as she lightly kicked her feet in joy giggling happily, inhaling Levi's cologne that made her cough a little at the intensity of it, he chuckle lightly patting her back, she looked up to Erwin and waved at him, smile not leaving her lips.

"My love" you called out as you walked towards him as he did the same, he wrapped his arm around you holding Kuchel on his other, resting her on his hip as he kisses your forehead and caressing your head, he looks down and sees baby Kenny, "Da!" He huffs out a shocked gasps and smiles caressing his soft cheeks gently at the back of his index finger.

"I missed all of you"

"We know Levi, that's why we're here"

He chuckles kissing you on your lips as Kuchel giggled and kissed Levi on his cheek, you pulled away as you kissed Kuchel on the cheek and Levi did the same, kissing baby Kenny too.

"Captain Levi" hearing Erwin say as he turned around and his face was back to being serious but not cold nor stern, "you can have the rest of the day off, be with your family, but I'm still going to need that report done tonight"

"Tch, of course, don't worry I already started it before you entered my office"

Erwin chuckles and smiles as he patted Levi's shoulder before walking away with Miche. Leaving only you, Levi and your kids alone in the halls, he walks you inside his office, giving baby Kenny to him as you stretched your muscles, sighing of relief.

Kuchel sat on Levi's chair spinning it around as she made noises, making herself feel like she's flying, baby Kenny was holding onto Levi's cravat, chewing on it a little on his mouth, making it soaked a little, you lightly laughed at the gesture as Levi sighs and removes his cravat and lets his baby boy play with it a little.

"As he eaten?"

You nodded, "yeah, he started at the carriage on the way here, nudging my boobs that he wanted to eat" Levi nods as he caresses the soft hair on Kenny seeing Kuchel grew tired of his chair, "Dad! Can I grab some paper?"

"Of course baby, on the second drawer" he gestured as Kuchel followed and opened it to see papers and pencils, she took some out and started drawing, as she hums away in a sweet tone. Baby Kenny dropped Levi's cravat as you picked it up and gave it back to him as he toyed with it again, "how long are you all planning to stay here?"

"Well, Erwin gave you the rest of the day off, but that report he said"

"Don't worry about that, can you stay the night?"

"My love your bed can only fit me and you"

"No worries I can sleep in the sofa out here in my office as you 3 sleep there"

"Or, maybe Hange can take care of our kids, she's their Godmother after all. She was exploding with joy when she saw us arrive"

"Tch, I bet she was nosey too"

"Haha she was"

Levi sat down on the sofa, gently settling Kenny down the soft mattress and let him sleep, hugging his cravat tightly in his arms, he kissed him on his soft cheeks, caressing his head, you stared at his face, seeing the tired eyes of his has gotten more tired, "my love you need rest" you softly say as you cupped his cheeks, he sighs closing his eyes leaning against your touch, he softly holds your hand and kissed your palm, he nodded as his sliver blue iris stares back at yours.

You later both leaned in, foreheads resting at each other, pulling away and kisses his forehead, his nose, his eyes, his lips, his chin, and his cheeks. "Mumma does that to me all the time daddy" you chuckled looking back at your daughter as she smiles innocently st the both of you, "really?" He asked as he sees her daughter nodding, "she would say she misses doing it to you, so often does it to me before night night"

"That's true, when I was pregnant for Kenny, I was loosing strength, but I held on, remembering Kuchel and kiss her features like how I do to you all the time before"

"I wish I was a better husband, a better father"

"Levi, not in front of the kids" you softly say as you lightly brush your thumb on his bottom lip to stop talking. He sighs and nods, he got up and softly carried Kenny, as he swifts a little and got comfortable in his father's arms, "let's let Hange take care of these two, I want you to stay the night" he softly says, you nodding smiling at him, kissing his cheeks before calling Kuchel, she holds the paper of her drawing, folding it in her hands and carried it with her. Grabbing her father's hand, walking out of his office and later to Hange's office, seeing she was already there with Moblit by her side.

"Oi Hange!"

"Levi! Oh and my Godchildren!" She exclaims in happiness as Kuchel jogged towards her, showing her the drawing she did, as they chattered, Levi told Hange about if she's okay with taking care of their kids for the time being, she of course agreed, her bed was big enough for the 3 of them to sleep in.

Minutes passed and the stuff you brought with you was placed on Hange's sleeping quarters.

Levi was now alone with you in the Mess Hall, a little music player in your hands as you clicked play, he turned around to hear the music playing, it was the song of your wedding day, hopes that he still remembers the dance moves you two danced.

"Do you still remember my love?"

"Of course, it's hard for me to forget that day"

You giggled and placed the mini music player on the table, seeing that no cadets was present there, you reached out your hand, asking him for a dance.

He chuckles and holds your hand gently, his arm snaking around your waist, hand holding each other, fingers lightly intertwined. You stared at him as he stared down at you, leaning to rest your head on his chest, feeling his rushing heartbeat, "all these years and I can still get your heart racing"

"Hah, I can't help it, you're my wife, the mother of my children. I thank God everyday for you, for Kuchel and Kenny"

"I love you"

"I love you more"

( // a/n: hey guys listen to this song while reading if you want hehe // )

As you both sway to the music, later the song sang, "kiss me once, and kiss me twice and kiss me once again" Levi leaned out and followed the beat of that lyrics, which made you giggled, both arms wrapped around his torso as he holds you by the shoulders, kissing your forehead.

"How I miss this" he softly whispers, he looks down at you; nodding cupping his cheeks, leaning up and kiss his lips fully, kissing him again and again before pulling away, never getting tired of his soft cherry lips on yours.

As they were dancing to the song, there was cadets walking by, but stopped when they saw it was their Captain dancing with a woman, "hey is that--" "Eren!" A young woman's voice pulling him away and whisper shouted at him to stay quite to not disturb you both, "but that was Captain Levi--" "shh!"

"Who's the woman though?"

"None of our business Eren, we don't want to get in trouble with Captain Levi! Want to polish his floors again?!"

"No!" Eren immediately declines as she shakes his head, they peaked slightly to the edge of the doors, eyeing Levi's silver wedding ring, and yours with the engagement ring he gave you, "that's Captain Levi's wife--" "shhhh!!" The young girl decided to drag him away as they finally left you two to be alone.

The song was ending soon as you felt sleepy, you yawned on Levi's shoulder, "you need to rest my love"

"Not until you lay with me" you tired say as he chuckles nodding.

Levi held you in his arms as he grabbed the mini music player, keeping it in his hand before walking towards his sleeping quarters.

Upon walking inside, he helps you take your dress off, remove your boots he helps you get into your pajamas, it was the one you still had before when you first slept and lived in his sleeping quarters, only moved out cause you got pregnant of Kuchel.

Levi stayed in the bed with you, holding your hand with his left as he uses his right to finish writing the report, as he finished he lets go of your hand, kissing your temple before whispering, "I'll submit these paper to Erwin love"

Before he could get up you softly grabbed his wrist, "give it to him tomorrow love, don't leave please" you tiredly begged him, your eyes was closed still and pouted your lips he sighs and smiles a little before nodding, putting the papers neatly on the bedside table on his right, before blowing off the candle.

He spoons you up in his embrace, you tiredly smile inhaling his scent which relaxes you, hugging his toned torso, face buried in his chests, he used his left arm and tuck it under his head as his right wrapped around your waist, kissing your forehead, combing your hair in a soothing patterned which made you fall asleep right away.

Even though he has Insomnia, with you, Levi manages to get enough sleep from time to time, but that was only when you're there with him, if you weren't there with him, his sleeps was always awaken up when the clock strikes 5 or 6am for work.

This moment is precious to him, he promises to stay alive and come home alive, for he has a home to return to.

It's true he always thanks God above that he's blessed to have you, Kuchel and Kenny, wouldn't ask for anything else.

Enjoy guys, Love ya!!

-nini

You woke up at 8am to the sound of pans banging in the kitchen, immediately you smiled, knowing your mom had gotten up early to start baking.

A look over to your left would remind you taehyung fell asleep in your bedroom last night....you couldn't help but feel bad, he was so crammed up against the wall, and he definitely would be complaining of back pain later on.

You shifted slightly, allowing room to pull the covers back and plant your feet on the ground. You slept, but not for long.

You were still feeling a bit off after having an episode last night, but the startling realization that came soon after only further prevented you from getting the 8 hours of sleep you so desperately needed.

Your feet clashed against the cold tiles of your bathroom as you slowly shut the door and turned the light on. Your phone was still sitting on the counter near the sink, exactly where Taehyung had left in last night.

You brushed your teeth and contemplated whether you should quickly text them back to clear things up. You promised Taehyung no phone, but this situation was becoming much more serious.

Your eyes gazed to your reflection, sighing.

theres no way....right?

you've been late before, it wasn't some odd occurrence to your body. you grew up playing soccer, dancing and doing track, your teenage athletic self always had weird period dates

But then again, that was a while ago.

You felt guilty for many reasons, 1 being the fact that if you are what you think you are, how could you have been so careless with what you did?

You always used some form of contraception, you even planned to get an IUD implanted when you see your doctor in a few weeks, just so you didn't have any scares.

you also felt guilty for if you were pregnant...

You knew you couldn't be a mom, hell, you could barley take care of Yeontan or yourself.

You also knew Taehyung on the other hand, would absolutely love this, which breaks your heart.

"I don't know, I think it would be fun" taehyung said, reaching into the bowl to grab more popcorn

"It doesn't sound or look fun, taehyung, babies are menaces" You scoffed, looking at him

"oh well I dont think so....I know when I get older someday I think I'll have some...only one or two, depends on what my future spouse wants" he shrugged

"you do realize babies need attention and care, its not like a dog where you put the food in a bowl and leave it to fend for themselves..?" you joked, watching your friend contemplate parenthood at the ripe age of 20.

"Its fun to think about" he smiled softly, looking over at tannie who sat with his tail wagging. He sure was easy to care for, what more work is a human baby?

oh was he naive.

You washed your face and brushed your hair, trying to get out a knot from sleeping with a ponytail in, when taehyung awoke and began to knock on the door.

"baby..." he whispered, seeing the light on, "you in there?"

You smiled and walked over, unlocking the door and pulling him in happily.

"happy birthday!" he whisper yelled, immediately attacking you with kisses and pulling your smaller frame into a hug, "I love you!"

You giggled and kissed him back, hands wrapping over his shoulders, "thank you....I love you too, even if you slept in my bed last night" you smirked

"hey, you told me to!" he added, pulling away

"shh!" you put a hand over his mouth, his deep voice echoing through the room, "I was in a state of weakness, and I really hope my mom didn't see you in here"

He shrugged and moved to hug your from behind, both of you facing the mirror and looking at your reflection, it was sweet.

"so was I the first person to say it?"

you raised an eyebrow and and tilted your head as you applied moisturizer

"happy birthday, did I beat your mom to it?" he giggled, making you smile and nod, "yes, tae you did, you won"

"oh really? what do i win" he smirked and pushed you against him, his face finding the crook of your neck too easily.

"ah-" you tensed and pulled back, knowing if he continued you would have gave in right then in there. "nothing until we get back to Busan"

He frowned, trying to get you to change your mind, "baby."

"taehyung! we are not fucking in my mothers house, let alone my childhood bedroom!" you whispered loudly, making him explode in laughter.

"hey, I was just gonna ask for a massage, I didnt say anything about sex, but now that you mention-"

"no"

"damnit"

You smiled at his antics as he returned his head to your shoulder, humming softly, "you look better, you feeling good, too?"

You nodded, "yeah, I guess...still a bit iffy but mentally im better"

"good" he kissed your cheek and looked at your phone, taking it silently and sliding it into his pocket, making you frown.

As afraid to admit as you were, things were slightly coming together now....in a light you wish was dimmed.

When you came downstairs your mother surprised you with a huge birthday breakfast, something you expected hence the fact she does it every year- but what you had not expected was you trying to fight the urge to vomit all over the plate at the scent of the scrambled eggs.

You swore up and down to both your mother and tae that you were okay, just still feeling the effects from last nights situation, but the moment you were alone in your room for the first time since youve been here, you began to break.

"What if's" filling your head as you cried silently against the shut door, deep deep down you believed you would possibly laugh about this later on, like "oh remember how I was so dramatic and thought I was pregnant? what a funny time!"

"Y/N?" your mother called, knocking on the door, "we are leaving for lunch in 15, almost ready?"

you sighed, feeling bad for your bad mood against your mom who was just happy to have you in her presence. "yes, almost..."

She had thrown together a small reservation for the 3 of you at a local wine and dine restaurant, you were feeling a bit more hungry now and were grateful for that.

Putting on a black tank top and jeans, you curled your hair and put some makeup on, all while that silly little voice in your head kept nagging at you that something bad was happening.

You tried to calm yourself, even going as far as saying that even if you had gotten pregnant, you would figure out a way to deal when you got back to Busan...you just wanted to enjoy your vacation.

All of you had made it out the house on time, taehyung offering to drive to the place while you and your mother sat in the back seat. You gazed at every passing store, seeking out any type of pharmacy available. You wished you could use your phone map, but you know....

"you will love this place, My friend took me here after one of my doctor appointments last week, the food is to die for!" your mother patted your back on the way into the small yet lavish building, the spring flowers making your nose itch.

"oh thats nice, was it stacey who took you? or Linna?" you responded

She giggled softly as you waited in line to check in for your reservation, "no, actually he is a new worker, his name is Ji-Tae"

Your eyes widened, turning to taehyung behind you, who was making a smug face, mouthing the word "he?"

You pouted, "I see..."

you were skeptical. You always want your mom to be happy, and for sure you understand how lonely she is living alone with such a big house filled with things your dad had built for her before fleeing your family to be in a different one.

The food was good, and you ate a lot of it.

Your mother insisted to buy you a drink to go with your pasta, making you hesitant, so the glass sat full in front of you.

"is it not good?" she would ask, making you race to come up with some excuse that wasnt related to the possible fact you could be pregnant.

"Oh I took a sip" you lied, "its good but I dont think I should be drinking right now"

She beamed up, seeming happy "oh? how come?" she smiled knowingly

Taehyung took a sip of his wine and raised his eyebrows, confused.

You panicked quickly, "because I am still not one hundred precent, health wise, so you know-"

"I'll drink it!" he smiled and took a sip, face scrunching at the mixture of his alcohol.

"dont mix, its not good to-" your mom began

"and we dont want you to get drunk" you gently rubbed his back, giving him a knowing glare, he nodded.

You nervously continued to pick at your lunch scraps

"hey we should get coffee or something after this, theres a store plaza down the street" your mom insisted, offering to drive you both

"that sounds fun" he looked at you, smiling

"yes, im down"

It fell silent, not in a weird way, it was peaceful...the wind coming in from the window near you had your hair flowing like you were in a covergirl commercial, and the sun only made your skin look shiny and tan.

Taehyung couldn't keep his eyes off you

Even sitting here eating, doing nothing particularly interesting, you were the only thing that had his attention, you've always been so effortlessly beautiful in his eyes.

"you are glowing, y/n" your mom smiled, taking her eyes off her phone to look at you, "dont you think, taehyung?"

"I agree" he hummed, making you blush.

Your mother began to ramble about something to do with her job while he got lost in thought, something hes done a lot the past 24 hours.

He couldn't help his mind racing back to the first time he felt this feeling, this feeling of admiration and love when he realized he saw you differently...

"You cant, your- you aree a cheater!!" you slurred, tripping over yourself as you walked to the living room again

He giggled, putting his wine down and pulling you to sit next to him, "just because I know how to play the game, doesnt mean I cheated"

It was almost 3am, he had finished working in his office around 11pm and promised to spend time with you as you both had fallen into a habit doing.

you would cook, prepare wine and entertainment, and he would get to destress and spend time away from his laptop.

Obviously, one look at the both of you right now, you can tell who handles their alcohol better...

"Fool" you scoffed and sat down with a thump, leaning against him in the dark room.

"be nice" he teased, his hand poking into your side.

He had to admit, spending so much time with you was nice, he realized you had matured a lot emotionally since hes met you, and you both had grown into semi-adults with real lives and things to talk about, it was an odd but fascinating thing for him.

He also had to admit, that for the first time in his life, seeing you against him with your hair sprawled out and your shirt scrunched up, revealing a bit of your soft stomach, made his heart somersault.

You also had grown into him in a way you never saw coming, he was so easy to just be next to, so easy to talk to, so easy to know and love, and that is why it led to what it did....

He gently cupped your face, titling you up so your eyes met his

"so pretty" he blushed and whispered, making you giggle in even your drunk state

"I know you are but what am I?" you raised an eyebrow, trying not to laugh as he pushed your hair back, brushing it with his long fingers softly.

"Y/n.....?" he spoke after a moment, the room filled with tension- and no longer from the card game you had just fought over.

"yeah?" your face froze, eyes scanning over him,

he gently took your hand and placed it onto his chest

"your heart is beating reallyyy fast" you smiled

"yea, i know"

You watched his eyes draw to your lips before going back up, making you smirk.

"you wanna kiss me?" you teased, watching him blush even more, he was practically a tomato right now.

"I- uh,"

"you can if you want" your hand slid up over his shoulder, relaxing at his nape as you sat closer, nudging his nose with yours.

He swallowed harshly, feeling sick a bit, and was unable to identify if it was the rush of emotions or the drinks.

"dont overthink...its just a kiss" you whispered

and with that he pressed his lips to yours, softly swiping his tongue into your mouth.

It was just a kiss.

yeah, it was a kiss the next day too, after he finished work, you sat waiting for him, sober this time.

You ate then made out for a few hours before falling asleep- he was content, knowing you not only liked it too, but continued to want him.

thats how it was for a few days, things were normal until 11pm, then anyone onlooking would consider you both in love...and he loved that

He was a sensitive person, still is, when he feels something he feels it deeply and quick, He was only growing more in love with you by the day, and was convinced you felt the same.

that was, until it was about a week and a half into this escapade

"I want you" you panted, his lips sucking just under your clavicle as your hands gripped his hair.

You both were sprawled out on the couch, completely sober as you passionately made out, the puzzle that had been started was no longer interesting to either of you.

He sat back a bit, looking at you, "what?"

suddenly you felt embarrassed, "we dont have to do anything" you covered

He sat looking at you, it only made you feel self conscious, so you sat up and wrapped your arms over your bra, hiding your chest.

He wasnt mad, or shocked, he just couldnt believe you were asking to...to take things to this level, to be intimate with him.

You both have only been doing this for a little while, but he felt like its been forever-perhaps its due to the fact you both grew up together, he knows you, you know him, it felt safe...and right.

He didnt want to rush anything, but his heart was beating so damn hard right now, "y-yeah? you want to?"

You blushed, "yeah..." you watched his face light up, a small shy smile on his lips "its just sex..ya know? it doesn't hurt anyone"

He nodded, trying to figure out what to say or do now

"so is it okay?"

"of course, y/n, yeah..." he smiled again, feeling so glad in knowing you trusted him.

You laid back again, pulling him down and kissing him, "no strings?" you asked

oh.

Of course you dont want this to be a serious thing, it wasnt who you were, he should have known that....but yet he was still hurt.

"yeah....n-no strings"

and thats how that came to be.

He snapped out of his head and took a sip of his drink, smiling at you, your eyes met his and you blushed a bit, mouthing "what?"

He shook his head, "nothing"

Things might be different now between you both, but one thing that hasnt left or changed is the admiration he saves for just you.

"this is so cute, huh?" your mom turns to you, showing a mannequin with a summer dress on it

"aww it is" you walked over and felt it

"i'll buy it" she smiles, "birthday gift"

"ah! you dont have to eomma-"

"i want to, shush" she giggled and grabbed a medium off the rack, putting it into her shopping basket, you kissed her cheek, thanking her and linking arms while you walked.

"wheres taehyung?" she asked

just as she finished speaking:

"guys look" he ran up to both of you, he had disappeared about 14 minuets ago to go explore the market.

"what is that?" you smiled, looking at the container in his hand.

"there is a little store across the way, there was pets and stuff.....I bought a fishy" he grinned like a child, presenting the item in front of him.

"Taehyung how are we gonna bring a fish home?" you laughed at his cuteness, looking into the small water container to see a tiny fish swimming around happily.

"oh...I didnt think of that" he frowns, looking down, "I also bought a tank for him too"

"that you did" You nodded, looking at all of his bags.

"you guys are fish parents now" your mom laughed and patted his shoulder

You swallowed and nodded, yeahh fish parents

"we can discuss names at a later time, lets go show the lil dude the market" he spoke proudly, holding it up and talking to it as he passed cool stores, as if it could understand. It was kind of adorable.

You smiled happily as you all walked around a bit more, stopping at a cafe to get coffee and tea.

"iced with oatmilk please" you call out to your mom as she nods, getting into line while you and taehyung sit at a table outside.

"hes so cute" he laid his head in his palm, admiring the fish.

"we should name him spongebob"

Taehyung laughed, "but spongebob isnt a fish..."

"but hes yellow!"

"hmm...how about 해 (hae- sun in korean)

You smile and nod..."thats cute, actually"

"Then Hae it is"

You giggled and looked around, your eyes fell on a store a few blocks from where you were sitting- a pharmacy.

It was like a reminder of the possible issue at hand, everywhere you turned, the universe wouldnt let you rest.

The fish baby, the pharmacy, the pregnant woman who complimented you in the restaurant, It was haunting.

"hey, uhm, im gonna go run down the street really quick, i should be back before my mom comes, line is long"

He looked up at you "where you going?"

"just the pharmacy"

"can I come?"

You widened your eyes "no!...uhm i need....tampons." you nodded

"alright, do you have cash?"

You looked in your bag and had about $11

How much was a pregnancy test?

"here, just in case.." he smiled and gave you $10

"thank you honey" you kiss his head and take the money, assuring you will return asap.

You felt bad lying and taking his cash, but you needed to find out what was going on already, and so when you walked into the store with your head down, you made a straight line right to the feminine care isle.

You decided on buying tampons anyway, just so he wouldnt be suspicious.

"okay ...okay" you took a breath and walked over to the pregnancy area, which was beyond weird. You had passed by similar isles at other stores, looking out of pure curiosity, never believing you would be in this position of the buyer.

You scoffed to yourself, looking at all the tests, "which one do I buy? whats the difference?" you whispered to yourself, looking over each box, remembering you had to be quick. You decided to go with HCG test strips since they were the cheapest, you put them in your basket and ran to go pay before tae or your mom decided to come check on you.

The lady checking out gave you a knowing look, "how old are you?" she asked, eyeing the tampons and pregnancy tests.

You felt insulted, not because she assumed you were young-which you were- but because she was just asking and felt it was okay to do so.

"old enough, lets hurry this up"

You paid and grabbed the bag, making a sprint back to the coffee shop where your mom was just sitting down with taehyung- you made it.

"heres your drink" she smiled, "thanks mom"

you sat down next to taehyung, your heart was in your throat.

"I told her you ran to get concealer" he whispered in your ear, an attempt to save you some embarrassment

"oh, thanks" you grinned, brushing your foot against his.

A few hours later, the sun had started to set as you all returned home- your mother went to her home office to finish a quick work call as you and taehyung hung in the kitchen.

"im glad you can enjoy it now" he smiled, scooping another bite last nights cake onto a fork and feeding it to you

"yeah me too" you hummed, eating it before he kissed you quickly

"my moms in the other room" You scolded playfully, licking the frosting off the fork.

"so? we arent doing anything" he frowned, hugging you, "we cant do anything anyways-you got your period" he giggled

Oh yeah

"oh right" you laughed, taking another bite

His hands rested on your lower stomach, massaging gently. It was an act of cuteness but when you knew more than he did, it made you nervous.

"are you hurting?" he asked, kissing your shoulder

"no..." you blushed

maybe.....it wouldnt be the worst thing to parent with taehyung. He is so affectionate and caring, you know he would be the best partner and dad.....

You shook your head, trying to get rid of your current thoughts as you put the fork down.

You needed to end this now

"im...gonna shower ok?" you whispered, kissing his jaw

"want me to come?" he asked genuinely

"no no its okay, im gonna use my apple soap that you says burns your nose anyways" you giggle, walking away

"it does!!"

"mmhm"

You locked the bathroom door, placing the bag on the sink as you rummaged through.

"how the fuck does this work?" you whisper, looking over the box of the tests, "hm" you frowned and pulled one out, unwrapping it discreetly and going to use the toilet.

After you peed on the stick, your hand grew sweaty- it was becoming more real as the minuets when on.

While you waited, you took an actual shower to pass the time, fighting the urge to cry based on whatever result was on the stick just outside the shower.

You washed your hair and took your time before you wrapped up in a towel, shutting the water off.

it would be negative, right? you couldnt be pregnant, these types of things dont happen to you, these things happen to other but not you, you are probably worried about nothing...right?

Your mind raced as you sat near the sink, water still dripping from the towel.

"lets go y/n, whatever it is.....we are ok" you consoled yourself, rubbing your arm before moving to grab the test, your hands shaking furiously.

Suddenly everything youve ever done was questioned.

every choice youve ever made was doubted

Your confidence fell down the drain, and perhaps the years spent working and educating yourself are pointless.....maybe it wont matter after all....because theres two lines on the test.

You are pregnant.

You broke down sobbing, leaning against the wall as you slid to your knees, there wasnt anything to say, there wasnt anything to do. You were gonna have a baby and there was nothing you could do about it, nothing you say would erase the problem.

Your mother and taehyung sat downstairs, completely unaware of the anxiety attack you were dealing with just one floor above them.

"no no...no..." your hand fell to your stomach, gently caressing it.

You werent mad at the baby, you were mad at yourself. You suddenly felt responsible for the life growing inside you, but felt guilty over knowing you would never succeed at being a mom.

"im sorry.....im sorry im so sorry" you rubbed your stomach once more, whispering and apologizing in advance for the failure you would bring to this childs life. you havent even finished school, you graduate next year and now you are gonna have to drop out because paying for a newborn and tuition wont work, you will have to sell your car and old clothes

you will have to move somewhere cheaper, or grow small and confess to your mother that you cant get your shit together, and need to have a baby in her house for a few years until you are financially stable.

In your own mind, you were still a kid. You were a baby in the eyes of the world, and now everyone will shame you for what youve done, knowing you arent ready, but still expect you to carry on and raise another human being.

and taehyung.....hes gonna be happy....hes gonna love this, and you cant deal with it.

About an hour later, you had forced yourself to calm down as you made your way to his room, opening the door to see him laying on his bed.

"hi angel" he smiled, urging you to come over to him.

"hi" you spoke quietly, walking over to the bed and climbing in, hiding your face into his neck as you laid on him.

"everything alright?" he asked, rubbing your back.

tell him, tell him now before you back out, you wont ever do it if you dont tell him.

"we have to talk later" was all you mumbled, falling asleep next to him.

It blew your mind in a way, he had no clue about the fact he was a dad right now, yet here you were, falling apart by the seams. You wish you didnt know. You wish you were him, you wish this never happened in the first place.

Happy birthday to you, huh?

bring back people disliking ships for the sake of disliking it because yall bring the most stupid takes to justify your disdain towards rina. like i promise you no one cares you don’t like rina but if you keep making the most stupid arguments of course people will put you in your place.

“i ship ricky with therapy” struggling mentally does not and should never stop anyone from seeking happiness and being in a relationship. that’s a very weird thing to say. no one in therapy is unworthy of love or incapable of reciprocating it.

“ricky has treated gina badly/does not deserve gina/made her cry” ricky has been the character who gave gina the most comfort and the one person she goes to when things get hard because they both believe they understand each other better anyone else could. he helped her open up to other people and is the reason people approached her because before that everyone thought she was scary and intimidating. ricky was the only person that said she didn’t intimidate him and assured her she wasn’t as scary as people portrayed her to be. he never treated gina with less than the respect she deserved. his only flaw was not understanding her confession and/or being confused as he had literally gotten into a relationship. only once has he ever brought up nini/his relationship himself after gina had helped him multiple times on her own volition and immediately gave her the space he thought she needed when she dismissed him.

“she deserves to be with a man that wants her” and then said man that “wants” her was ready to drop her after getting his ego bruised because a sophomore didn’t wanna date him. he saw how happy she was to hang out with him, and his course of action was not to cancel the plans for the night (so he could recollect his feelings) but to cancel indefinitely. because of course the appropriate reaction to a girl alone in an unfamiliar city with no family is to shut her out when you just learned that you might be the closest person she might think of as family. like yeah that’s the man that “wants” her. ricky had just gotten into a relationship when gina confessed to him (whether he understood that as a confession or not) so of course he wouldn’t drop it on the same day because he is not that bad guy yall desperately want him to be. he also had so much growth to do by himself and accept the changes in his life and be able to deal with them. he is finally in a headspace to accept the feelings he might have for gina. so unless s3 expresses not wanting to be with gina, you can’t say he doesn’t “want” her.

“rina is toxic” this is a mickey mouse ship not euphoria. ricky is not some evil mastermind whose only purpose is to make gina cry and make her life miserable. there’s a college aged man going out with a high school girl after calling her peers “kids” (carlos) and “too young” (ashlyn). if yall okay with that then rina is not the red flag yall forcing it to be.

“gina is ricky’s second choice” ricky has never made gina a second choice because he never started talking to gina as a replacement to nini or with the intent of ever being something more. it just happened. developing feelings for someone after a breakup does not make anyone a second choice. and during the time feelings were developing nini was not even mentioned. nini only became part of his life once again when gina left. she also initiated the almost kiss which made him realise he could go back to that stability and safeness he was seeking. he has never used gina as a replacement for nini, no matter how many times yall will try to spin that way. gina however was not even over ricky while she even considered ej. so according to your standards if anyone were to be second choice it would be ej.

the post got longer than i expected it to be but all i’m trying to say is that if you don’t ship something just say you don’t instead of making dumb and stupid paragraphs on something that some comprehension skills on these two characters, specially ricky, would’ve gotten you the answers you needed.

#hsmtmts #gina porter #ricky x gina #ricky bowen #rina #ricky and gina #it’s okay to just not like a ship #hsmtmts season 3 #ricky is not this toxic bad guy yall want him to be

Kindly Unspoken, Part 9

Summary: Christmas with the Barber’s

Pairings: Andy Barber X Reader

Rating: 🥺🥺

Warnings: none, 18+ ONLY

Word Count: 2.1K

Series Masterlist

*dividers created by @firefly-graphics

“What time did you tell her?” Amaris asks, leaning over the back of the couch to look at the front window. “Did you give her the right address?”

“She’s been here plenty of times,” Andy yells from the kitchen bringing the rest of the snacks into the living room. “Feet off the couch.”

“What do you mean she’s been here plenty of times? Like times without me?”

“Yes, she came here to inspect the house,” he sits down on the couch, and the little girl crawls over into his lap, looking at the coffee table filled with all the snacks.

“Does she celebrate Christmas?” Andy nods at her, starting to giggle. “How did you ask her?”

“I asked if she would like to come over later because you made cookies her.”

“It was your idea,” she hums. Wanting to lean over to grab a sugar cookie. She turns and looks at her dad, and he gives her a nod.

“Get one for me, too, please.”

She waits until Andy takes a bite before smiling at him, “Do you like Angel?”

“Of course I do. She brought you to me. Nobody needs to be alone for Christmas.”

“Yeah, but, do you like like her. Like…like her? Like…how Hayden likes Doll.”

“Did you have a good first Christmas in Boston?”

Amaris blows a raspberry out of her mouth, but doesn’t press her dad further. She knows It only makes him shut down a bit more. Her fingers tap on his arms, looking back behind her out the window again, “Daddy, you look handsome in your sweater.”

“And you look beautiful in your Christmas outfit.”

She fiddles around with the dress, giving him a smile, “Doll picked it out with me. I bet it’s going to be so nice for Cozy to have a mom in her life. And Sailor has a mama, too. You know, moms just know what their daughters need.”

“Is this about Jessie?”

“No,” she answers quickly, shaking her head. “How do you miss someone you never met.”

“You met her, sweetheart.”

“I don’t remember her, though. I know she was great, and I’m sad that I don’t have a mom, but I don’t miss my real mom. I’m just saying that Doll and Tulip are my aunts, and wouldn’t it be nice for me to have another mom? One that I actually know?”

“Ah,” Andy sighs, leaning back on the couch. “You want me to get married. Am I not enough?”

“You’re fine, daddy, honestly. I’m just saying that I can’t keep Doll here. And I know that you provide for me, and you’re getting better at picking things out, but Doll does the shopping. And Angel has really good style. I’m just saying,” before she can add more, she sees your lights beam through the window and she jumps up.

Andy breathes a sigh of relief with the round of questions. Talking about giving Amaris a mom was not an easy topic for him. He hadn’t really dated since Jessie. Not anything serious. A few one night stands, but never someone he would consider a long life with. “Amaris, just wait by the door. It’s cold out, and you don’t need to stand there with the door open,” she drops her hand from the handle, and stands there twitching.

Waiting patiently, until she hears your little knock, and she slings the door open, circling her hands around your legs. Pulling her off you, you give her a big tight hug, “Did you have a good Christmas?” Squeezing through the door, you shut it, keeping the cold and the snow out.

“I did. Come see my room,” she wiggles out of your arms, and starts racing up the stairs. Turning around to look at you, “Well come on.”

“You better go on,” Andy says, coming up behind you to join the both of you. “There’s been some changes to her room.”

“You guys work fast,” you whisper, going up the stairs. “Wow. It looks amazing in here. How long did this take?”

“Well, Nini helped. Hayden and Curtis painted. Steve built me some more to my village. Look,” her Calico Critters seemed to be her favorite. Steve had provided her with hills on her table, making it appear just like a village. “And this,” she points over to a corner full of stuffed animals, “This is mine and Sailor’s favorite. The mountain of Squishmallows. She lets me read her stories there. And…oh! Angel, we got you a present.”

Walking over to her very own little pink tree, she pulls out a small package, and you were almost taken aback. “It’s not a lot. It was dad’s idea. I helped with the final product though. I hope you like it.”

You thank them both, and start to open the package, gasping at the pastel highlighters in them, “You didn’t seem to have the right highlighters in your collection. Amaris calls them Mild Lingers. She has some herself.”

“Do you have them?” You shake your head no, surprised that Andy had noticed enough about your desk to know you didn’t have these highlighters. ��“See,” she walks over to her desk, and opens up a notepad, using one of them, “There’s gray ones. Now, we just gotta keep Coco from stealing them from you.”

“Yeah, he tends to do that to me.”

“The other day I found one of my baby bunny critters in his pocket,” she giggles at you. “I tried to get him to set up the village with me, but he was stuffing the babies in his pockets. I gotta be careful because Sailor likes to eat them.”

“So you like being close to your family?”

“Yes! And Doll is having a little girl that they’re calling Cozy. Well, Cozette, and Cozy for short. Um,” she lets out a deep breath, and looks up at her dad, “Daddy said you were alone today.”

“Well, not completely. I was looking for someone.”

“I don’t like people being alone. Daddy and I made cookies.”

“They’re just those Pillsbury ones,” Andy adds. It was still the most adorable thing. Andy really enjoyed being a father, and was adapting to the life well.

“And, he said he likes watching Elf on Christmas. And me, and Nini, and Doll, and Tulip, and even Hayden, because he can’t leave Doll’s belly alone. But we made this yummy popcorn that has Christmas candy and sprinkles in it. Daddy and I were trying to make the perfect hot chocolate recipe, and it’s okay, but I think we can do better. But what I mean is, do you think you could stay? Eat popcorn, and some okay hot chocolate, eat the cookies, and watch Elf? Please? Pretty pretty please?”

You look between the two, and while you didn’t want to impose on them, she did say please. They didn’t look like they were going to be doing anything else. And it warmed your heart that they, or at least she, wanted you to stay for Christmas. “I’d love to, Amaris Mae.”

“Okay, you two go downstairs. I’m going to get my pajamas on since you saw my outfit. You want to pick out a Squishmallow to lay on? I want the axolotl though. Might I suggest the dragon. She’s pretty comfortable. Daddy likes the shark,” she goes ahead and picks up the shark and hands it to her dad, while you grab the dragon, and head downstairs with Andy.

“Have you eaten? Tara sent us home with a ton of food if you’re not into snacks,” you don’t know how you missed the living room with all the snacks on the table, but the two of them had created a pretty magnificent spread. “The hot chocolate is in the kitchen, but I can heat you up a plate of real food if you’d like.”

“It’s fine, I had some frozen lasagna.”

“Oh, well…uh, next time don’t hesitate to ask. Tara and Howard wouldn’t mind. Doll’s ex boyfriend was even there.”

“That’s strange.”

“He’s her brother’s friend. Here,” he gives you a fluffy blanket, and goes to the kitchen to start the hot beverage. Moving around quickly. “I don’t want to impose. I’m just so thankful for all you did. I have my daughter, and…there've been a few bad days. Not many. We’ve visited her foster parents, and that seems to help. But she’s home and with me and her family where she belongs. And I just…you should have a family.”

“I…Andy I didn’t have the best experiences in the foster system. I was carted around to so many different houses, and I…I don’t want to talk about that time. But it made me who I am. Made me want to fight for these kids who are forgotten by the system. Made me want to give these kids a better life than I was given. And yeah, sometimes it’s made me a bit of a loner, but I don’t feel alone.”

“But you deserve the family that you’re giving these kids,” you look away from him. He could be so intense. You weren’t offended by what he was saying, just shaken up that someone would care so much about you. Care about where you were. Care to know that you were fed, and had good experiences, and made Christmas memories. “Have you ever seen Elf?”

“I haven’t.”

“It’s my favorite. Watch it every year,” he pours three mugs of hot chocolate, sliding one over to you. “Tell me what you think?”

“Mmm,” you say, taking a sip. “You know what I think it needs?” Amaris skips into the kitchen, already discarded her own Squishmallow on the couch, and she stares excitedly at you. “I think it needs some vanilla, a dash of cinnamon, and some whipped cream,” Andy looks over to Amaris, licking his lips playfully, and goes through the kitchen grabbing what you need.

“You’re lucky,” the little girl giggles. “Nini stocked our kitchen.”

“Ooh! A dusting of cocoa powder.”

“That’s what I told you, daddy!” You fix up everyone’s mugs, but Amaris jumps up, and runs into the pantry, bringing out a container of chocolate chips that she puts on the pile of whipped cream. “This looks professional!” She squeals. She takes a long sip, and smiles at the two of you. “You know, all three of us helped make this the perfect mug of hot chocolate. Try it. You’ll see.”

You had to agree, it really was the perfect mug of hot chocolate.

Andy looks out the window when the movie is over. Smiling over at his sleeping daughter before looking at you, “I don’t feel comfortable with you leaving.”

“What?” He points outside, and you see why. Apparently it had started snowing while you were watching, and it was still coming down, covering the road, and your car.

“I don’t think your little Civic should drive through this. There’s an extra room upstairs. You could wear some of my clothes to sleep in. I just don’t feel comfortable with you driving in this.”

“No, yeah. Yeah, you’re right. I just…I don’t want to push myself into yours and Amaris’ space.”

“Are you kidding me?” He gives a soft chuckle, softly tapping on her leg. “She adores you. She loves the women in her life. I think she hates that…I’m sorry. I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable. Curtis has a big truck…”

“No. No. Staying here is fine. I’ll make…do you have bacon and stuff for French toast?” He gives you a nod of his head, his mouth turning up into the biggest smile. Unbeknownst to you, Andy was struggling not to get too excited. “I’ll make us some French toast in the morning. I’ll figure anything else out after that. Maybe some fresh fruit, and eggs.”

Andy felt too comfortable having you here. He wasn’t fighting your company like he did with most women. And he would be blind to not notice how good you looked in his home with his daughter in between the two of you. “Right. Let me get you something to wear, and I’m going to carry the sleeping beauty upstairs. Thank you for tonight.”

“You did everything.”

“I mean, thank you for always being kind to my daughter. You have a good heart, Angel. Come on, let’s find something for you to wear. Gotta clean this mess up. There’s always messes with a kid.”

“I can help.”

“No, you’re our guest.”

“I don’t mind. Kids’ messes just mean they’re in a safe and happy home. You’re doing good, Andy Barber,” yep. He liked it too much. He isn’t even mad that the snow was keeping you trapped here. With a look outside, he hopes that it will continue to snow throughout the night. He didn’t want to hold you prisoner, but it felt good to know that Amaris was going to wake up with you here. Giving him and her the family he always desired, and he was getting the feeling the one you did, too.

“Merry Christmas, Angel.”

“Merry Christmas, Andy.”

An Underrated Rina Moment

This:

That whole coat check scene was of course amazing and Ricky’s selflessness and their chemistry as usual really shines through. But the underrated aspect I’m specifically talking about is Gina’s willingness to hear Ricky out, despite her current heartache. Will come back to this in a bit.

Hella long post ahoy :3

This whole season, we’ve watched Rina repair their friendship, converse more freely, goof around, make each other smile and laugh, and replace awkwardness with that typical unresolved tension always underlying their interactions. We’ve also seen Gina’s subconscious trust in Ricky start being restored. This started in the barn in s3e3 when Ricky unintentionally tells Gina the very words she’d definitely needed and wanted to hear. (Still getting her innately). After their adventure, we start seeing her actively seek him out. The bucket list moment is the first time Gina has taken initiative to approach Ricky to talk or hang since Valentine’s Day in s2e3. And then we see her continue to easily confide in him her relationship struggles after WDYKAL, and in the Colour War, she has no reservations hanging out with him, joking around, telling him everything going on with her, and asking him for assistance with her plan. And through it all, Ricky has selflessly and actively wanted to help her/support her and does just that, even pushing aside his breaking heart for the sake of Gina’s happiness this summer. And he regains her trust.

But there’s a common theme here:

The repair in their trust and confiding in each other has all pretty much been Gina to Ricky. As in, Gina finally opening up to Ricky about her inner struggles again. But not the other way around. As we’ve seen, Ricky has been largely reserved with sharing his own struggles with Gina. In their interactions, he holds back whatever he’s feeling, whatever is on his mind, and makes sure to allow Gina full space and time to share what she wants with him at her own pace, and he matches what she needs in full.

Ricky clearly spent his time in Chicago introspecting and dissecting everything that had changed in his life including with his family, with his relationship with Nini, with becoming part of theatre. That probably also includes his fall-out with Gina and every interaction they’ve had, likely in an attempt to figure out what it is that he did that put Gina off. He probably remembered treating her like some dirty little secret on Valentine’s Day, the jokes about the chocolates, confiding in her about Nini, Gina shutting him out, closing her door on him, and ultimately concluded he’d been selfish with her and took her for granted.

As much of a chocolates truther as I am lol, I think this strained expression?

…was more rooted in a sense of awkward guilt because I do think that while working on himself last season, Ricky retroactively realised what events coincided with Gina becoming more subdued around him and ultimately not talking to him anymore. I feel like he’s cringing at the reminder of how he behaved and how oblivious he was to everything but his Nini issues.

And this season, we’ve seen him selflessly going out of his way to be there for Gina, supporting her, hearing her out, helping her with every one of her endeavours. Not just out of a sense of guilt from the Spring, but also because he likely grew to understand how one-sided their friendship had started to become when he got back with Nini. He’s working to right that wrong by being there for Gina 150%. Plus, he definitely missed her, her vibrant laugh and smile, her energy, how in sync they were, and wants her in his life in any capacity, even if it means being a cheerleader for her relationship. And in doing so, I think he has decided to keep everything to himself, most likely to make sure he doesn’t commit the same mistake from the school year when he drove Gina away by being a bit self-involved. I think he’s definitely scared to lose her again so he’s approaching their friendship more carefully and selflessly now, through making sure only her needs are met.

(I headcanon that Ricky’s comment to Nini in the breakup—that he didn’t like who he was becoming—also in part had to do with how much he was prioritising his relationship to the detriment of his friendship with Gina, but that’s another post for another day).

So that brings me back to this wonderful moment:

He checks first if she wants to hear it. And Gina is 100% willing to listen to Ricky’s important news despite her heartbreak.

This is the first time this entire summer/season and since mending their rift that we’ve seen him commit to confiding in Gina or open up to her and actually approach her with something troubling him.

And I’m positive Gina has realised this too. From her perspective, this is the first time Ricky has tried to open up to her, an avenue that signifies renewed reciprocal trust. From her perspective, Ricky is willing to put his faith and trust in her again too through sharing something that matters to him. From her perspective, this is the first time he's needed her for anything since their falling out at the Quinceañero.

Here, she turns around and faces Ricky with undivided attention the moment he tells her he has something important to say. And above that, responds with what I interpreted as a hopeful tone that he’s finally opening up to her. Even earlier this episode, she kinda tries to get him to open up to her and tell her how he feels via “Hey Ricky, you okay?” (His brain is fried so he can't respond).

But going back to coat check, of course, he reasonably backs off because she’s crying and emotional at the moment. But this is the second time he’s clearly backed off from saying something. The last time he’d somewhat hinted at having something he wanted to say, he kept to himself. And Gina gives him this borderline suspicious glance:

So I believe she’s already had a feeling that he’s been holding back on her or withholding something. But now that he’s finally ready to talk, she’s adamant on meeting him halfway and hearing what he has to say. (They do that for each other).

Even though she avoided him, I think Gina highkey missed Ricky too, his humour and good-natured goofiness, the way he enjoys her presence just as she is, the way she can turn to him for things she struggles with that he just understands and she never really has to explain. Especially as camp took off and her friends briefly shunted her in a 1.0 box and her boyfriend, though gave her cute flowers, didn’t really understand or listen to the deeper aspect of why being cast as Anna means so much to her.

(Again: Ricky knew without prompting, and right after that, Gina consciously starts spending more time with him).

All that to say, Gina clearly wants Ricky to confide in her too, to truly re-establish their bond, start over the way they used to be, and recreate that give and take that made them get so close so quickly in s1. The moment they reunited at camp, she was immediately ready to put it all behind her and be friends again, so I’m pretty confident that she wants him in her life in a larger capacity. We see that throughout the season and especially in Camp Prom, where she is much more proactive in trying to hang out with Ricky or talk to him.

By the end of the night, despite everything currently pre-occupying Gina’s mind and time: her fresh breakup, the time she needed on the swings to compose herself, focusing on supporting Kourtney through her beautiful journey to overcome her fears…

She happens to run into Ricky and immediately:

And then encounters her recent ex-boyfriend and the wave of sadness hits her again, but even so:

Ricky��s important something has clearly been on her mind too. This moment after the water bucket challenge is pretty much s3’s equivalent of “say it” reversed, but I think it goes beyond just that. She continues to gently prod him to tell her what he needs to say, and I think her reasons why are threefold:

1) Because EJ withheld from her this whole camp, making her feel disconnected from him, making her feel insecure about her place in his life, and after the breakup, she most likely wants to feel needed or trusted by someone in a way her ex didn't make her feel,

2) because Ricky has spent these past weeks being there through all of her concerns and helping her, prioritising her, wanting nothing in return. He helped her when she needed someone and now she wants to return the favour,

And 3) despite the fact that they have started over, Ricky and Gina still haven’t worked up to being mutual confidantes as they used to be. So it seems to me that by persisting, she’s trying to let him know he can trust her. That she’s forgiven him for his selfish blunders in s2. That she’s opening that door fully between them and that it's okay for him to share with her again.

You can’t rebuild a deep friendship on a one-way street, so in order to truly confirm their reconnection, Ricky needs to open up to her now and fully let her in his life just as she’s committed to fully letting him in her life again.

And I think that is so beautiful and subtle a moment because it is not told, but shown in how Gina insists on wanting to support Ricky through whatever important information he has been keeping to himself. This moment of her attention to Ricky is a genuine indicator that they've moved past the imbalanced and uneven relationship of s2. That now they both are ready and willing to be each other’s person again, give and take, after 3-5 months of being far away both literally and metaphorically.

Given that they both tend to be able to get each other or read each other without much prompting, I do think Gina has an inkling of what Ricky might have been wanting to say and her looking back (and Ricky missing that she looked back !!!!) was included for a reason. But she was definitely disappointed, as we can see here:

I think her disappointment may possibly stem from her feeling like he’s still holding back from letting her in. That maybe he hasn’t yet grasped the fact that she's opened a channel between them because she wants him to confide in her again just as she's been confiding in him. But that’s a process in progress and may take time since Ricky is unwilling to encroach on her after losing her friendship in s2.

But, Ricky did give Jet advice that sometimes when theatre kids have trouble expressing themselves, they sing it out. So I’m expecting a callback to this, this time with Ricky being forthcoming to Gina through song.

I might be looking into this scene too much lol, but thass what I do. Either way, no matter what happens, I’m really looking forward to seeing how this hanging thread between them eventually gets resolved, even if it takes all of next season.

luck be a (leading) lady | part 1.

Summary: Y/N has always been a background character. That’s just life for some folks isn’t it? But what if she’s determined to not just be another member in the ensemble? What if someone helps her step into the spotlight in her own special way?

Warnings for the Series: a teeny bit of angst but mainly fluff

Pairing: ricky bowen x black!reader

Word Count: 1.3k

A/N: I am not even sorry for starting a third series. I just finished season three of hsmtms and I’m obsessed. Also spoiler now, EJ and Gina are staying as an endgame couple. I’m gonna try to plant those seeds early if I can.

(Series Masterlist)

Junior year. You were wondering if something amazing would happen to you this year. As you slammed shut the door of your car, you were starting to think that it was going to be another boring year for you. Only you could go to the famous East High and still have the most mundane school experience ever. You sighed as you made your way to your locker. Four people that you never talked to aside from asking to borrow a pencil were standing right in front of it. Your eyes darted back and forth. Right, you were sure that you heard something about Nini and Ricky and a breakup? Or just a break? It didn’t really matter at the time. You thought the Camp Shallow Lake gossip was just that. But then EJ and Nini did seem really close ever since the show started. You didn’t really care in all honesty.

“Um, excuse me.”

Four sets of eyes turned towards you. You blinked in mild surprise at their annoyed faces. Hesitantly, your pointer finger motioned to the metal cubby between them.

“That’s my locker.”

All of sudden, the faces changed from annoyed to embarrassed. You tried your hardest to quickly get in and out. The moment Nini mentioned meeting someone else at camp, you darted out of there. Last thing you needed was her calling you into the lovers’ quarrel as a witness. Although, you weren’t even sure Nini knew who you were. She always forgot to give you an opening night card. You knew plenty about Nini, Ricky, Kourtney, and Big Red. The five of you had gone to the same elementary school, then middle school, and now high school.

Not many people in Salt Lake could say they’ve grown up together in such an intense way as the five of you. Except it wasn’t the five of you. It was the four of them and you just existed. Sure you were introverted verging on social anxiety according to your therapist. And, yeah, you didn’t have a single friend since the one girl who befriended you had moved away right before freshman year. But still, you think the four of them might have acknowledged you at some point.

You didn’t have much more time to think about that as the principal started giving a bunch of announcements, including a new drama teacher. That was a shame. You actually kind of liked the old drama teacher. They had always put you in the least egregiously ugly costume of the ensemble. You even got a thank you card last year because you were one of the few students that signed up for every production whether a musical or a play. Oh well. This new teacher, Ms. Jenn, seemed interesting enough. And High School Musical. That was awesome. Did you have a shot at playing Gabriella? Absolutely not. Were you going to try out for the lead anyway? Of course. That was a tradition of yours.

You might have been painfully shy— detrimentally shy— but you loved theatre. Maybe if you could play the main character just once then you could break out of your shell. Break out of your shell as the real you and not Dancer #3 or Milkmaid #1 or Starfish #4. If your friend was here then she would say that you totally had a shot. Even though she had always been a sports gal, she forever supported you in anything the arts.

Auditions were in two days and you needed to think of the perfect audition song. What screamed Gabriella? Should you go in something that would remind Ms. Jenn of the show? Not exactly the red dress Vanessa Hudgens wore at the end of the show but something similar. A cute skater dress.

You had chosen a cute pink number from your closet. Attaching your audition number of lucky nine to your dress, you finished stretching backstage with everyone else. You smiled as you heard everyone practicing. Maybe your audition song was going to be what took you over the edge and made you just a bit better than everyone else. That quick burst of confidence was short-lived as you heard EJ give out something between a laugh and a scoff.

“You know, I’m actually kind of bummed we don’t have any competition here. It would make getting the leads just a touch sweeter. Nini, this is going to be perfect. Leading man and lady. You ready to blow them all away, Gabriella?”

Your shoulders slumped a bit. Maybe you didn’t have this in the bag. Well, at least you’d be leading the ensemble again. You hyped yourself for the dance auditions that were first. Carlos really stepped up to the plate to make some amazing choreography. Maybe the only person executing it better than you was whoever had audition number one. You had never seen her before. She must have been a new kid. Definitely a shoe-in for one of the leads as far as you were concerned. Your smile grew a little bit when Ms. Jenn gave you a wink before saying everyone should prepare for the line reads.

Her acknowledgment one hundred percent meant that you were just put in the running for Gabriella or maybe even Sharpay, right? If you were being honest, she didn’t even bat an eye at you asking for Gabriella. That had to be a good sign. It just had to. You felt confident as you started singing your audition song, a classic “Colors of the Wind”. All you had to do was sing it perfectly and read a few lines and you were done.

“Sorry! Sorry, I’m late!”

Everyone’s heads turned to see a very haphazard Ricky running into the room. You looked on in mild concern as he went into this very long-winded and out of breath story about why he was late. Something involving a dvd stuck somewhere. You only caught half of it and you were positive that Ms. Jenn hadn’t been paying attention to any of it. You bit your tongue as attention turned from you to Ricky.

“Lucky for you we haven’t gotten to the Chad scenes yet.”

“Oh, no, I’m here for Troy.”

“We’ve already read for Troy.”

“That’s kind of the only stuff I know. I’ll wait till everyone else is done.”

Carlos gave the other boy a look. “Troy would have been on time.”

Your eyebrows scrunched up a bit. “Wasn’t he late in the movie?”

“Number nine, not helping.”

You opened your mouth only to close it again. There was no doubt in your mind that when you finished your audition you were getting the ensemble. Between the new girl, Sebastian wanting to be Sharpay and Ms. Jenn loving the progressiveness of it all, and two boys fighting over Nini as she sang, you weren’t getting Gabriella or Sharpay… or Taylor. Or even Kelsi. You sighed as you went to grab your backpack from backstage and wait with everyone else for the cast list. Normally you were used to callbacks and at least a day or two but Ms. Jenn had a… unique style to her.

The energy backstage was too tense for you. You popped in your earbuds and moved to wait in the hall where the list was going to be posted anyway. Leaning against a locker, you texted your parents that you'd pick-up something for dinner and they could go ahead and just enjoy their anniversary dinner without any concern. You weren’t prepared for the argument between Nini and Ricky. Of course, you couldn’t help but turn your music down and listen in. Nini looked pissed at whatever Ricky had just said.

“You broke my heart Ricky. And then I had the best time at camp. Without you. You don’t get to just come back here and mess everything up.”

“Nini.”

“N—”

“The cast list!” Kourtney ran past, grabbing Nini as she did.

You waited for the crowd to clear to find your name right where you thought it would be. Ensemble, principal dancer. You didn’t even get the understudies for any leads. The only thing that left your mouth was a scoff. The start to junior kinda sucked.

Tagged by @sonseulsoleil (thanks Charlie! Can’t wait to read more of your Heartstopper fics and see what you write for LOTR!) and by @monstrous-femme (I was gonna tag you in this, but you beat me to it!)

< Share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics, then tag ten people! If you’ve written less than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway. <

(From most to least recently posted on my AO3, so these are circa 2022 and 2021.)

1. plausible deniability (Beadick, Lolilo)

Beatrice Duke does not sneak into other people's empty flats, and certainly not to make out with her ex-boyfriend. She doesn't even have an ex-boyfriend! That is, not anymore.

What she does have is Ben, and that feels like a miracle, after they’d all but fallen apart under months of missed texts and truncated video calls and so many hours between them. As it turns out, though, even long-distance had proven less painful than actively staying away from each other has been.

2. diamonds (Satine/Nini, Moulin Rouge the Musical, rated M)

Nini is beautiful, and sensuous, and makes Satine’s blood boil. She’s the only person at the Rouge who isn’t intimidated by the mystique of the Sparkling Diamond. The only one brave enough to smack her on the ass on her way offstage or criticize her to her face when Satine drops a note or flubs a dance step, rare though that is. She challenges her.

3. a single thread of gold (Malina, Shadow & Bone, Modern AU)

She walks into the restaurant and there he is, at the table in the corner with his hands in his pockets and his long legs crossed lazily. Mal has his gaze trained on the couple in the center of the room, a blond boy in a too-fancy suit and a dark-haired girl in a blue cocktail dress. Mal and Alina are supposed to be watching for a signal, in case their friend Zoya wants them to bail her out of the blind date they’d set her up on.

4. what happens in group chat (Meg Winter & Beadick, Lolilo, post-canon texting fic)

Meg Winter’s Phone

Group Chat with: Bea babe, Bendy-dick

Meg: hey are you guys coming to my Oscars party next month? Tryna plan ahead

Bea babe: you’re having a party?!

Meg: duh, I’m an entertainment journalist I have to celebrate the Oscars Bea babe: nice, we’ll save the date then

Meg: speaking of save the dates…

Bea babe: shut up

5. with pure and piercing certainty (Malina, Shadow and Bone, winter fete canon divergence)

The shadow general has cold, cold eyes. As Kirigan sneers at him, those eyes fill Mal with a mortal fear, because this man has had Alina in his power for months. A man with eyes like that- he could have done anything to her, to make her serve him, to keep her from writing, all these months. There will be no waiting for an escort or a summons. Mal needs to find Alina now.

6. you keep me up at night (Offspring (TV), Nina x Zara, rated E)

Nina Proudman’s mouth goes dry. She’s lying in her bed, and in front of her is Zara Perkich, clad only in a lacy black g-string and a positively dirty smirk.

“Like what you see?” she asks, knowing the answer by the dilation of Nina’s pupils and her sudden inability to produce words.

7. on the doorstep (Beadick, Lolilo, Bea is in on the rules for matchmaking reasons)

“It’s 9:45, Benedick, you’re being ridiculous!” Beatrice snaps, her fingers curled around the doorframe so he can’t shut her out. It’s only been a day, and she’s already done with this tent business.

“I’m sorry, it’s the rules-” Ben starts, going pink with embarrassment.

8. in every universe (Beadick, NMTD/Lolilo)

i. Game of Thrones

“We’d be so dead in this universe,” Ben points out as the GoT credits roll. “We’d still find each other first, of course, and you’d try to seize the throne at some point for sure.”

9. Short Shorts and Knee-Highs (Beadick, NMTD/Lolilo, post-canon)

Beatrice finds her boyfriend lounging on the little loveseat in their hotel room, his head propped up on one couch arm. Ben is channel surfing with the tv volume off, clearly lost in the kind of enjoyable boredom you only experience on holiday. His body is too long for the shitty little hotel couch, legs dangling over the edge of the far armrest. He looks up and smiles as she walks in.

10. A Shower of Sparks (Malina, Shadow and Bone)

From the moment she lays eyes on Mal in the woods, Alina feels that she can breathe again.

Being in the Little Palace was like stuffing herself into a smaller and smaller box every day, despite the good friends she’d made there and the rush of using her powers. She shoves aside the shame of having been fooled and toyed with; there’s no time for that now. Now she’s free, under the open sky, with her favorite person in the world by her side again. With her powers released and her hand in Mal’s, she feels better than she has in a long time, maybe ever.

I tag: @nbshrubberry @miz-chase and anyone else who sees this, writes fic, and feels like sharing their work! :)

whatever happens, happens

I had to write this fic, since Ricky Bowen clearly needs to kiss some boys, and I couldn't find any fics where this particular scenario happened between him and E.J.

Ricky's visit to E.J. at college doesn't go quite how either of them planned.

Read here on AO3

"You know this whole thing...with Nini, and then Gina?" E.J. asks.

"Mmm?" says Ricky, mouth full of pizza. E.J. chuckles for a second before continuing.

"Do you ever think we were...I don't know, avoiding something?"

Ricky swallows his pizza and E.J. watches his Adam's apple bob down and then back up. "Like what?"

E.J. runs a hand through his hair, feeling Ricky's full attention on him now. "Well, not avoiding something, I guess. More like...displacing something."

"Nope, dude, you've totally lost me," Ricky says, chuckling, but does he sound...a little nervous?

E.J. laughs again. "Never mind. Must just be me."

Ricky rocks forward on his knees, staring directly up at E.J.'s eyes, and he's so close E.J. can see the tiny smears of tomato sauce the pizza has left around Ricky's mouth. "Must just be you...what?" Ricky says. Is E.J. imagining it, or did Ricky's eyes just dart down to his lips?

He's pretty sure he didn't imagine it, though, because now Ricky is looking up at him again with that guilty look in his eyes - the same look he has when they talk about Gina. Instead of answering, E.J. follows his instinct and cups Ricky's face in his hand, gently using his thumb to rub off the tomato sauce stains around his lips.

At the exact same time, Ricky leans forward and closes the gap between them, pressing his lips to E.J.'s.

E.J. opens his mouth in surprise, allowing Ricky's tongue to explore deeper into his mouth. Ricky tastes of pizza and his lips are softer than any girl E.J.'s ever kissed, and-

Val.

He pulls back as soon as he remembers that he has a girlfriend, but in his heart of hearts, he knows it's already too late.

Ricky gasps a little when they part, and they both can't speak for a few long moments.

Then they both speak at the same time.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean-"

"I was just trying to wipe the tomato off your face."

"Oh," says Ricky, looking down. "Right."

"That came out wrong. Look, I've...kind of made some discoveries since I've been in college." E.J. gives him a little smile that makes Ricky blush. "When did you figure out you were... what? Bi? Pan? Or are you gay, because that's okay too..."

"Uh...wow, E.J. I guess...just now?"

"Oh." E.J.'s mouth is still hanging open but he can't think of anything else to say, so he shuts it.

Ricky grins a little. "You really have been doing some soul searching since summer, huh? Guess I need to do a little more of that myself."

E.J. shrugs. "Trust you to be late to figuring out your own sexuality."

Ricky chuckles a little. "Touche." Then he sobers. "But E.J....Gina."

E.J. nods, trying to speak past the lump in his throat. "Val."

Now Ricky is definitely laughing nervously, putting space between himself and E.J. Which is definitely a good idea, but also not what EJ's most selfish self wants. "Maybe we could just...pretend it never happened? Laugh it off? Just bros being bros?"

E.J. frowns. "We can't do that, Ricky. We just cheated on our girlfriends. With each other." Saying it makes it feel real, and Ricky's pained grimace shows that he feels the same way. "I can't just keep hiding from my feelings, and you can't just keep running away from them."

Ricky has pulled his knees up to his chest and wrapped his arms around them so he's curled up in a little ball. He's pouting and E.J. has to look away, he's too adorable. "You're right," says Ricky. "God, I hate it when you're right."

E.J. gives a little chuckle and it sounds almost normal. "I know," he says.

"So...we tell them?" says Ricky, and E.J. nods. "And then what?"

E.J. heaves a deep sigh. "I don't know, Ricky. I don't know how Val's gonna react. I don't even know what I want." He looks up at Ricky. "You definitely don't know what you want."

"I thought you had it all figured out?" says Ricky, and he looks so young and lost that E.J. just wants to pull him back in, tell him that everything will be alright, that E.J. will make it alright. But that would be a lie.

He shakes his hand. "I figured out some stuff. Plenty of stuff I've still got to figure out." He stands up, grabbing the plates from the floor and taking them over to the sink, just for something to do with his hands. "So I say we take some time, figure some stuff out."

Ricky nods, like he's OK with this. Then he says, "And then?"

E.J. shrugs. "Whatever happens, happens." He gives Ricky his patented E.J. smile, the one that always made every girl at theater camp swoon. "Even I can't predict the future."

"Right." Ricky stands there with his hands by his sides, curling into fists and stretching out again, curling then stretching, curling then stretching.

Suddenly E.J. can't stand to have him there anymore. "You need to go," he says, then realises how cold that sounds. "Go...talk to Gina. You owe it to her. To both of us."

Ricky nods his head twice, like he's still uncertain, and casts one last long look at E.J. before he turns on his heel and leaves the room.

E.J. closes the door behind him and sits down with his back against it, trying not to panic. He gets out his phone and scrolls to Val in his contacts

He takes a deep breath.

"Whatever happens, happens," he says to himself, and hits the call button.

That Don't get me started after the kiss was so loaded omg!! He about to love the hell of that girl next season. He won't be able to shut up about her , he will be obsessed with her in a good way. I do think secret dating is coming for them though. Season 4 about to be so God damn good too.

Ok thank you SO much for this anon! I was going to talk about this because I wasn’t sure people caught onto why Ricky said it. So I appreciate you beating me to it because it gives me the excuse to ramble 😂

“Don’t Get Me Started”

I’ve seen it floating around on the internet that the double meaning behind this was “Don’t Get Me Started (on how much I love you)”. Yes AND I think it also means that ricky has a LOT more to say and do to prove his feelings. I’ve seen a lot of upset over the rina confession because it was gina confessing (TL:DR; I’ve reblogged several excellent posts and on my last ask I addressed this a little why it was important Gina stated her feelings instead of Ricky). However, what we have seen through Ricky’s actions is that he showed up and stayed. He told gina in the way she understood that his feelings for her were there and they weren’t going anywhere. I don’t know that she needed him to verbalize it because in a way when she confessed her feelings, she basically said she knew how ricky felt. That he surprised her, that she didn’t see him coming, and that he was a yes because of how he treated her. I’ve been back and forth on her forgiving his “friendly fib”, but this to me shows she knows he’s not good with words. She has seen every part of how he has been towards her and she knew there was something more there. When he told her at the coat check he needed to tell her something, she turned around with almost a happy curiosity? I think she’s been aware too but wasn’t going to let herself fall too much because of EJ and because she didn’t want to keep getting hurt. But this time, her confidence helped her to speak her mind and her truth.

If you notice the music change when Ricky says this line, it goes from the rina cue to the “next episode” cue. Like there is more to come. We’re on a cliffhanger. Etc. This, to me, is purposeful. I think this was Tim’s way of saying that Ricky has more ways to show up and show Gina his love. Even if Gina has been completely naive this entire season (but as I stated before I don’t think she has), she still has time to see him prove those feelings for her. That her awareness of them might increase through actions (and honestly through words). I’ve seen some people say ricky has trouble with words… which yes and no. His confession with nini showed he had no issue with them. He was very open with Carlos about his feelings. The confession was originally supposed to be from him (TIM WHERE IS IT). I think he has more to say but it has been so, so hard for him to out of respect for p*w’s relationship and gina. Now that rina is a thing (I can’t believe the words I’m typing… cloud 9 for sure), he will be able to prove that love in even more open and recognizable ways to gina and she can reciprocate it back. I don’t think it’s a reach to say s4 rina will top s3 rina. They can finally meet each other where they’re at and damn will it be so good to watch.

the worst part is them going “she’s not even a second choice she’s a third choice” bc he called lily. and i know they’re going to be even more annoying this season saying it if ricky possibly has something going on with lily at the beginning of s3 that he’s probably going to end in the same episode. like how was ricky suppose to “choose” her when they stopped talking and she never made herself a choice in the first place. him breaking up with nini was not suddenly going to put him into overdrive thinking about how he needs to go for gina. gina wasn’t even talking to him and lily put herself out there. s3 is the season of realizations and feelings he’s kept within him for gina for him.

^^^ literally everything about this !! so very well articulated anon <3

but yeah i completely agree. gina cut him off during s2 (and don't get me wrong, she was completely within her rights to do so) but the fact is that she did it !! there's a reason why it's so important that rina actually become friends again and it's because it's pretty clear (narratively speaking) that they aren't at the moment. gina shut down and ricky couldn't reach her. lily reached out first, made herself vulnerable to ricky, and as a result he was able to see past her mean girl facade (ick). of course, he doesn't know that she stole their harness so i imagine that could definitely blow up in her face at some point. idk. but the point is that ricky has never had the opportunity to really face what gina means to him and how he feels about her!! gina has never been second or third or fourth or last choice because she has never been a choice in the first place.

ANYWAY this is obviously going to come to a head in s3. rina are (most likely) playing love interests. they're going to be spending a lot of one on one time together. ricky is officially letting go of the past - and this time there's a real sense of finality to it (hence 'finally free'). anon you put it perfectly: for ricky, it's the season of realisations.

and honestly i cannot wait !!

#it's gonna be so good y'all #but fuck lily!! all my homies hate lily !!#i cannot believe that people ship them and in any way think that ricky CHOSE her over gina #gina is not speaking to him. they are not interacting.#once again she's taken herself out of the equation!! she's not an option!!#at least...she wasn't...😏#asked and answered #anonymous #hsmtmts #rina #gina porter #ricky bowen #gina x ricky #ricky x gina

Hello! Can I request a Seokjin drabble paired with prompt 1? TY!

1- "we're not just friends, and you fucking know it" x Seokjin

(thank you for requesting! Hope you enjoy it! -Nini)

Seokjin x reader

warnings- angst, swearing, drama, one sided love

wc-

ask for a prompt here

"you know, you don't need to lie to me, if you like her just tell me" you mumbled, pacing the sidewalk in front of your apartment as you closed your coat tighter against you body, shielding yourself from the cold.

Seokjin sat on the steps in front of you, a cigarette hanging from his mouth as his eyes watched you walk back and forth. "im not lying...and stop pacing you are making me nuts"

You scoffed, "oh you wanna talk about making someone nuts"

"are you implying that I make you crazy?" He teasingly raised a brow, smirking

"oh god shut uppp" you whined, stepping in front of him. "I know you like alyssa" you leaned forward

"Y/N, I told you I dont-"

"its cute, as your friend I support you, go get em tiger" you slapped his shoulder, making him yelp.

"ah, stop hitting me, aish..."

"come on, shes really pretty and you are handsome, why wont you just call her back?" you sat on the step next to him, taking his cigarette and putting it out, you hated when he smoked.

"why are you so insistent on this? are you getting paid?"

You giggled, "no, I just...want you to be happy. I haven't seen you genuinely happy in a while, and when you met her at the party You guys seemed to have a lot of chemistry" you picked at the skin by your nails, side glancing to him.

"listen she is a nice girl...but I have no interest in dating her, never have and don't plan to lead her on" he shrugged, pulling your hand away from your picking silently.

You sighed and rested your head against the palm of your hand

"if you are cold just go in" he said calmly, now no longer feeling the conversation

"but its nice fresh air, plus you would be alone" you moved to rest your head against his shoulder, making him freeze before moving you off.

"hey" you pouted,

he looked back at you before standing up and turning to into the apartment, making you watch in confusion before following him.

you met him standing in the kitchen, "whats wrong?" you asked

"nothing, im probably gonna go to bed, goodnight, y/n" he spoke, moving forward to look at you for a few seconds, you frowned and moved to press a small kiss to his cheek, "okay, goodn-"

"dont do that" he looked back at you, pulling away

"what?" you raised your eyebrows, stepping away. You always were touchy with each other, it was the type of friends you were, why was he rejecting you?

He looked down and turned to walk to his room, "I dont get you, y/n"

"Jin you are making so sense, did I say or do something to upset you?"

He sighed and stopped in his tracks, turning to walk back to you, "yes, you did"

"oh" you frowned, "im sorry,..."

He just looked at you from across the dark room, your sad eyes watching him in full confusion. He knows how odd his behavior seems right now, and he curses himself for quite literally sucking at expressing himself properly.

"what did I do?" you cross your arms and speak softly

"how can you stand there and act clueless?"

You remained silent, unsure of what was going on, afraid to upset him more.

"why? why are you-" he sighed and leaned against the back of the couch, facing the wall instead of you as he spoke. "why are you pretending you dont know?

"know what?"

"you tried to set me up with some girl I dont know, then you continue to do those little things you do" he sighed again

"what are you talking about?"

"the kisses, the hugs, the sharing of clothes, you are wearing my jacket right now!" he turned and gestured at the article of clothing.

You looked back at him and walked closer, stepping in front of him, "what is the point of this conversation? you are acting off" you gently cupped his face

"you are doing it right now" he mentioned, his hand pressing against yours, whispering, "tell me you dont see it? tell me you are completely unaware of what im talking about..."

"Seokjin, I jus-"

"god, y/n" he stood up and paced a bit, "you dont feel it?"

"feel what??" you were beginning to grow angry, his behavior becoming erratic

He grabbed your hands and held them. "this. us."

You looked into his eyes for a few seconds before understanding what he was trying to say, "jin..." you shook your head and tried to pull away. "You are my friend, I love you, Im always here for you, but this? us? its...its platonic" you tried to calmly whisper as you saw the tears forming in his eyes.

Youve known this man for 10 years and youve never seen him cry.

"dont say that" he shook his head, in denial.

"you cant-"

"no! no...we're not just friends....and you fucking know it"

You took a deep breath, "go to bed, jin, you need to sleep."

"dont brush me off like this, you know how long ive tried to keep it to myself? You know how long ive waited?"

"im sorry...." you clutch your forehead, "but you cant just dump this on someone and expect them to feel the same way"

"you are hurting me" he looked down and harshly wiped the tear that escaped his eye, he was embarrassed to cry in front of you. "you dont remember?"

"remember what?"

"when we were going to bed last night? and you told me that you loved me more than anyone else, you said you would always be that person for me?"

You nod

"did you mean any of that? im just a man, Y/N, I cant handle these stupid emotions and you trying to shut them down isnt going to do anything" he huffed

"of course I meant it, and they arent stupid, you are valid and allowed to feel that way-however, it seems maybe you took those things I said the wrong way?"

He scoffed and glared at you

"You are my favorite person, I mean that, but us together makes no sense, I cant be that person for you, im sorry"

"I will never love anyone ever unless its you" he spoke as you turned to walk to your bedroom.

"jin."

"im serious."

"jin theres people out there who love you, love you so much and are waiting for you to love them back, dont.....dont waste time on something that will never happen."

He remained silent, shaking his head in disapproval "I want you"

"im sorry" you whispered, "you need to sleep, you are upset and exhausted"

"you broke my heart"

"you will regret acting like this in the morning" you sighed, defeated and sad.

He frowned before getting up, you stopped him before he could speak, "go rest- I dont like the way you are acting right now, im sorry I cant make you happy, but dont blame me for being honest" you whisper before shutting the door, feeling your own tears begin to fall.

You couldnt love him....You waited for him for years yourself, and now that you feel confident in life and who you are, now he wants you?

You would never let yourself backtrack on your words like that, not after you spent months silently getting over him. Its not fair that you loved him, and its not fair that he began to notice too late.
