Usnavi turned into a fumbling idiot the second she walked in, puddles of honey swirling in her toffee eyes. Her lips curl into a grin as she walks over to Sonny and ruffles his hair, her giggle turning Navi into mush as she greets his cousins with words he couldn't be bothered to hear.
The summer heat wave had business booming with classes out and the sun glaring bright, his eyes followed her to the frozen section, grabbing an ice cream, she walks over to the counter and this was his chance, his one chance, he figured.
She lies the ice cream cone down, pierced tongue coming out to lick over her bottom lip before she speaks, her voice matching her eyes, smooth honey, with an accent, Puerto Rican.
"Just this".
Benny waves his hand in front of a frozen Usnavi's face, eyebrow nearly touching the ceiling, quick to explain away his bestfriends strange behaviour, "It's been a long day. Navi"! He elbows his friend, whispering a rough, 'talk'.
The first words out of his mouth shock both Benny, Sonny, and the woman in front of him. Benny knew his best friend was awkward but this was humiliating, he just shook his head and grabbed the price gun, both he and Sonny deciding to work instead of witness whatever...this was.

"Did it hurt when Heaven fell"?
"I'm sorry"?
"I mean- When you- Fuck".
The pretty lady giggles and shakes her head, "Wanna try again"?
Usnavi is more than captivated, Benny and Sonny could've sworn they saw the grown man drool a little, it was like watching a puppy fumble over itself. Benny started to pity his dear friend.
"Sorry. Anyway, I'm Usnavi. That was humiliating, Can we start over? That'll be $1".
As she puts the money on the counter, sliding it towards Usnavi, she smiles sweetly, dimples denting her cheeks before she speaks to him in that soft honeyed voice once more. It's like an angel's called to him.
"You really don't remember me, do you Navi baby"?
When he hears the nickname, it all comes crashing back like waves to the shore. Little Y/n Rosario. He hadn't seen her in years, she was always three years behind him and Nina, her older sister. Always had a crush on Navi, he thought it was adorable how she'd trail behind him like a puppy. This. This wasn't Little Y/n Rosario, this was something different.
He blanks trying to come up with something to say, when he remembers everyone was supposed to meet up at Abuela's, for Nina's arrival. Nina's arrival...The youngest Rosario, who'd hailed in from PFW, and Nina were both known to be the ones who got out of the Heights, made something for themselves.
The weeks leading up to their departures were spent drinking and dancing, with celebratory parties all around.
Usnavi saw her off to the train, but back then she was just a pipsqueak, the woman that stood before him now seemed confident and sure of herself.
"Usnavi"?
"No, no, I know who you are. Just took a moment".
The young woman snorts, rolling her eyes at his attempts to act like her new appearance wasn't shocking. She was definitely a different girl than in her younger years, for one he takes notice of her piercings, and the serpent that wrapped around the length of her left thigh, eyes seeming to glow a soft pink.
"It's okay, I'm aware I look a little different than I used to, but...So do you". She cocks her head to the side, eyes running over the male curiously, "You gone be at Abuela's right? I know it'd be nice to see a familiar face".
He nods weakly, her eyes shift from him to Benny and Sonny. She waves a manicured hand to them, "See ya boys later".
"You know it", Sonny sends her awkward finger guns and they all watch her disappear out the front door. Usnavi knew what was coming.
A grin spreads wide across Benny's face, turning to Usnavi.
"You. ain't. got. no. SKILLS".

Usnavi was looking forward to the night ahead, dressing in a pair of jeans, cowboy boots, and a black button-down with two buttons left open.
That night, he couldn't stop picturing the youngest Rosario, drawn to her like moth to burning flame.
His eyes were quick to observe the room, searching for that midnight black in the sea of bodies, when finally his amber eyes landed on yours, greeting people as you entered the crowded apartment.
His eyes follow you around the room. Until finally your eyes land on him.
((read ALT text, image description.))
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Lookin' Sharp, Navi" You greet him, that same angelic smile making him weak in the knees. He'd drank a beer or two already, and blame it on the liquid courage but Usnavi could feel himself become confident in his ability to talk to you as the beer settles in.
"You flatter me, mama. Look at you, vision of perfection".
As he watches you, he manspreads in his chair, beer in hand and eyes low staring into your very soul.
"Whatchu drinkin"? You asked, walking up to him with deep brownie eyes gazing into his, he's not sure how he didn't faint then and there, that smile had him by the balls. She could make him do anything as long as those doe eyes stared all big and beautiful into his.
"Some nasty ass beer, but uh Dani brought whiskey, rum and shit. Said we could make our own drinks".
"And your ass is over here drinking piss? With free reign to rum and shit, plus the cognac and d'usse me and Nini brought"? Her hands clasped around his wrist and she sighed, "C'mon, We're gonna make this right and I'm making you some that'll knock you off your feet".
Looking you over again, he agrees. You've already done exactly that.
He follows behind you, and this time it's he who looks like the love-sick puppy.
When the two of you are away from the crowd, you grab two cups, exhaling airily, you begin to mix a few things together in concentration. He just watches you do your thing, the music playing in the background making it feel like a scene out of a movie as you playfully bumped your hip against his, the two of you laughing joyfully.
When it was finished, you presented him with a cup with a slushy-like mix in it, blue and smelling like a three-day hangover with some blue hawaiian punch to accompany it.
"Voila~"
He chuckles, taking the cup with a skeptical smile on his face. He sighs, raising a brow, "You're taking a sip first, ionno bout this, ma".
"You don't trust me"? You asked, pouting dramatically, "Fine, Give me the cup, coward".
"Ay, I'm not a coward. I'm just not a complete dumbass".
You roll your eyes, glaring at him as you move the cup to your lips, he's tuned in immediately, watching his favourite movie never seen before staring at those pouty lips of yours wrapped around the rim of the cup, gazing into his eyes with a constant, entrapping, eye contact.
His focus is broken when you scrunch up your nose at the strength of the drink, face relaxing when the flavour hits your tongue.
"Huh, strong but I like it. Here, taste".
You held the cup up to his lips, the two of you were in a house full of people and it'd started to feel like you were the only two in the room.
When it hits his tongue, the poor thing instantly coughs, his face scrunching up like he'd just eaten a warhead, but when your laugh fills his ears, it becomes all worth it. If he could hear that forever, he would.

Let Carla and Daniela tell it, You and Usnavi had been inseparable all night, the roles reversed from your childhood. Anybody with eyes could see Usnavi De La Vega was head over heels, scurrying in front of Sonny when he was about to sit next to you just so he could sit there himself.
Sonny glares at his older cousin, sitting next to Benny and Nina whilst Usnavi just looks triumphant.
"Navi you nearly knocked the kid over" Cuca scolds, hitting the boy upside his head. You snicker, but the smile that threatens to come onto your face when you realize he's doing all this over you...
"It's okay, I'll remember that next time he needs me to pick up an extra shift".
Nina pops in with a quick but swift landing exposure, sending both you and Navi's cheeks blazing red, "Give him a break, he's just in looooveee".
The table erupts into hoots and hollers, a person on either side of you or Navi shaking you both by the shoulders in excitement, there's only one party at the table who hadn't decided to make a fuss about it. When the volume quiets down, you cross your arms over your chest and playfully chide in, "And you and Benny"?
Nina gives you the middle finger, and it's her and Benny's turn to be fussed over.
The table is lighthearted, everyone's joking around and having fun. Usnavi has his arm over your shoulder most of the time without even realizing it, but he doesn't have to notice, and neither do you. Vanessa, who'd been silent most of the time, was tired, quite frankly, the only Rosario she cared for was Nina. Her glare most of the night was on you and Usnavi, Carla was the first to notice, Daniela and Cuca took notice as well.
You and Usnavi stayed oblivious, as Carla leaned over to Vanessa to ask what was going on.
This is when it all goes downhill, The women of the barrio could be gossipy, they flourished within environments of drama, thrived.
"You okay, Vanessa"? Cuca asks, louder than Carla had. There's a devious smirk on her face as the table takes notice of Vanessa's obviously plummeting mood. You wanted to ignore it, truly did, but it dawned on you pretty quickly what Cuca was doing, why Vanessa seemed so pissy.
You glance up at Usnavi who, for once, catches on pretty fast as well. He and Vanessa went...back. Back, as in, it was never meant to work out, he had a schoolboy crush, they tried to make it work, but it just...didn't.
"Ah nothin', Y/n I was wondering how Paris went? Fashion week? I'm sure you're a pretty popular girl, Got a man waiting for you back home? Maybe 2? 3"?
The table looks at her as if she'd grown a second head, Usnavi is silent, the table is silent. She takes a sip of her martini and laughs it off fakely, "Just kidding guys, Just. Kidding".
This is what you'd been telling your sister about since you were younger; Nina never quite got the picture because Vanessa was her best friend, she wanted to believe she was a good person because that's all Vanessa allowed her to see. The angel of the barrio, the prettiest too.
Oh, how the mighty had fallen. Your sister raises an angry brow, she looks at you with a familiar questioning 'You got this' expression, and for once, for once since you'd found your voice, you nod.
"We broke up, bout 4 months ago, didn't work out with the two of us. But...I'm moving back, and that's all that matters".
Again, the table breaks out into a thunderous roar of hoots and hollers at the news of you staying.
Vanessa looks furious.

After the party had died down, and thinned out. You and Usnavi stayed behind to clean up, help abuela to bed, and lock up.
When all is said and done, you head out onto the fire escape, drinks in hand. You felt comfort in the silence, looking over to see Usnavi felt the same way. It was nostalgic in a way, reminded you of the night before you left, sharing a beer on the fire escape, praying abuela didn't wake her ass up to see the two of you drinking, yet you never stopped or went somewhere else.
Abuela's place was the safest for all of you.
"You feel it too"?
"We was out here sneaking and drinking not too long ago". You nod, laughing lightly, your knees knocking with his just. like. then.
"And now you're in magazines, looking beautiful as ever".
"And now we're both a little older, little more in tune with who we are".
Usnavi smiles, his eyes leaving the night sky to look at you.
"And we know what we want now".
Your breath hitches, looking up at him now, his hand comes out to tilt your chin up, make sure you're looking at him directly. He leans in, barely a breath away.
"Do we"? You ask, voice soft, sweet.
Usnavi chuckles, his lips ghosting over yours.
"Mhm...I think we do".
Your lips finally touch.
Magic.

Usnavi: ...

Can you make a fic with Vanessa and Usnavi fluff? Give me cavities from it.
abso-fucking-lutely. they're one of my favorite straight ships (says a lot coming from a queer such as myself) i love the loser x girlboss dynamic so much (i'm gonna assume you're requesting the obc because imho obc is the best cast)
-------------
Orange and gold rays of sunlight spilled through the small but cozy apartment Vanessa and Usnavi shared. Usnavi was, as always, the first to wake up. He gazed down at Vanessa, having his daily morning thought of, How did I get so lucky? He smiled, leaned down to kiss her cheek, and put a shirt on. He walked out into their kitchen and started coffee.
As it brewed, the bitter and nostalgic smell of coffee flowed through the air of the apartment. Eventually, Vanessa caught wind of it and slowly sat up. She ran her fingers through her hair, pushing her messy dark brown locks out of her face. She groaned very dramatically as she started to sit up. The smell of coffee was the only thing motivating her at this point. Still, she pushed herself off the bed and stumbled into the kitchen. There, she found Usnavi pouring two cups of coffee. She walked behind him and wrapped him in a hug from behind.
"Buenos dias, Nessa," Usnavi whispered with a gentle lopsided smile.
Vanessa hid her face in his back, groaning, "Coffee..."
Usnavi chuckled softly and handed Vanessa a mug. She took it without letting of him, resting her chin on his shoulder and drinking the coffee gratefully.
"Amazing as always, babe," Vanessa praised as she rinsed the mug out and put it in the sink. "I gotta hurry up and get to work, but I'll visit you during lunch."
"I'll be waiting."
The two shared a kiss before Vanessa left the apartment, once again leaving Usnavi with that daily morning thought.
How did I get so lucky?

Ok so I know the ITH fandom is probs as dead as my will to live but this just popped into my head
So imagine one day everyone has like the same day off and the decide that they’ll have a little get together before so the next day they don’t have to worry about work and they can just hang out, and at this point Sonny is the only one not drinking but he’s still having fun. somehow he gets Pete into the party and no one notices until Benny asks him what time it is and everyone is like 0_o “how did you get here?” But they just roll with it. Then Nina’s parents call and she’s freaking out cause she can’t answer the phone drunk, then Vanessa and Pete look at each other like >:)
(personal head cannon they’re besties)
Then Vanessa grabs the phone and answer and Pete pulls out the Best™️ impression of Nina you ever heard,like he sounds exactly like her, and somehow it gets by and they hang up. Everyone is in shock now but Vanessa, Pete ,and Sonny just start laughing cause no one else knew how good Pete was at impressions but them and everyone starts laughing at it. Pete becomes the official cover man if they ever need him.
That’s my take. Let homeboy be apart of the main gang
