House of the Dragon (Dance Moms Au)
AN: This is based off of a fever dream i had while adjusting to my new anxienty meds, good luck.
The Targaryens had a long line of success within the world of dance, some even considered them royalty. Many flocked to the studios that they would dance at, though they had danced at the same studio since they were 2. Alicent Targaryen, nee Hightower is a real dance mom, and she loved her children equally.
Interview with Alicent Targaryen (Mother of Aegon, Daeron, Aemond, Y/N and Helaena Targaryen):
Alicent (31): “My children have danced with Criston Lee Cole since they were babies, and we never lose.”
Aemond (7): “I am the best, sorry.” (Clearly, he was not sorry.)
Helaena (8): “I just like the sparkly costumes.” (Queen of not giving a shit.)
Daeron (6): *Isn’t here. *
Aegon (9): “I don’t really care, I don’t try, but I win anyway.” (Unbothered.)
Y/N (9): “I hate being here, but I’m the best at what I do.” (Does Jazz hands, with no facial expression.)
Alicent: “We are on Criston’s competition team, and we love being here.” (Clearly, she does not love being here.)
Rhaenyra Strong, nee Targaryen had danced at Criston’s studio when she was a young girl. Her sons have made quite the name for themselves in the dance world, and she supported them all the way. She just wants to see them dance.
Interview with Rhaenyra Strong (Mother of Jace, Luke, Joffrey and Visenya.):
Rhaenyra (30): “We are all just so excited to be here.” (Looks like death.)
Jace (8): “I will be the next James Cordon, no one wants to see me but I’m always there.” (Seems to be giving up on life.)
Luke (7): “I really love my mom.” (Puppy dog eyes.)
Joffrey (6): “I like dance.” (No thoughts, head empty.)
Visenya (6): “Yall already know who I am, my names Visenya and I’m the best jumper on the team.” (Crazy Topher eyes.)
Rhaenys Velaryon, nee Baratheon was dance royalty when she was a coach for Criston’s studio. She decided to step down from her position when her children were born.
Interview with Rhaenys Velaryon (Mother of Laena and Laenor Velaryon):
Rhaenys (42): “My children are the dancers that they are because of me.” (Very proud of herself.)
Laena (9): “I am the duet master.” (Smug.)
Laenor (8): “My sister is insane.” (Looks around as if she would appear.)
Rhea Royce, divorced mother of 2, devoted Christian and very vocal about all of her thoughts. Pro guns and Pro-choice, she just thinks everyone should be dead.
Interview with Rhea Royce (Mother of Rhaena and Beala):
Rhea (28): “My girls love dance, and I want them to be happy.” (Sincere.)
Beala (7): “My mother is the best mom ever.” (Honest.)
Rhaena (6): “I love doing Acro and tricks.” (No thoughts, head empty.)
-Monday 13:54-
The mothers and their children enter the studio at the same time, almost rehearsed. Alys is sat at the front desk, shuffling through the papers that have slowly been piling up on the surface. Alys was the choreographer for Criston’s studio. She prided herself in being the best and producing the best dances.
The children all love her.
Interview with Alys (choreographer):
Alys (21): “I love working with the kids, I don’t love working with Criston though, he’s insane.”
She smiles up at them as they pass the desk. “Good afternoon, ladies, hi kids.” A chorus of responses floods the room, they all head to get changed and the mothers to help their kids. However, Alicent stops at the desk.
“Good afternoon, Alys.” the words are soft, tender. A soft smile plays upon her lips, she has always been kinder than the other mothers.
Alys smiles in response, “Hi,” she too has a tender smile upon her face. Alicent doesn’t linger too long before she heads back to help her kids get ready to dance.
-14:30-
“Kids get in here!”
The children flock towards the voice, Criston is stood at the front of the room, by the mirrors. On the mirrors, photos making a pyramid.
The mothers walk in after them standing to the side of the room. “Time for pyramid,” a sinister smirk appears upon Criston’s face, the children shudder with fear.
“On the bottom of the pyramid,” he removes the page covering the photo, “Jace, you fell out of your turns and boggled the pirouettes, I’m just glad that the judges were looking at Aegon and not at you.” Jace lowers his head in shame.
“Next, Rhaena, your jumps were slow, and your timing was off half the time.”
Rhaena too looks to the ground, unable to meet Criston’s eyes. “Next, Laenor, you missed half a step, I’m disappointed. Next, Joffrey, you didn’t stick out to me. Next, Beala, you were good, I’m waiting for you to be great.”
Criston starts revealing the next row, “Luke, you were cute, but we don’t want cute, we want compelling. Next, Helaena, you did good. Next, Laena, your turns were good, but you had sickled feet. Next, Visenya, you did the best jumps, very nice.” The children who were yet to be revealed what spots they received seem much more at ease now.
“Next, Aemond, you did what was expected, good job. Next, Y/N, you were the female lead, and you exceeded my expectations. And at the top of the pyramid, Aegon.”
Aegon does not react to this at all, because Aegon doesn’t care. “This week the group routine is intitled: Dance of the Royals, it is about a family at war over who gets the throne now that the king is dead. There will be two sides of this ‘war’ the greens and the blacks. Each side has a lead dancer who together will almost be preforming a duet in the midst of the ‘war’. Aegon, you will lead the green side, Y/N you will lead the black side. Then I also have 3 solos and one trio to give out.”
His eyes scan over them, “Aegon, Y/N, Aemond, you three have solos, as you are at the top of the pyramid. Laena, Beala and Helaena you are in the trio, the trio is called: Pigs and Us, it is about the struggles of being a woman in this world. It is contemporary, and very emotional. Aegon your solo is called: The Taker, it is jazz, and it is about the benefits that society give men but deny women. Aemond, your solo is titled: God’s Eye, it is contemporary, it is about a battle between two warring souls. Y/N your solo is titled: Dry-eyed and Docile, it is a ballet solo, and it is about a young girl who is taken from her life and married to a man much older than her. All the solos are designed to win, so you better win.”
The children are promptly dismissed to start learning the choreography.
-Upstairs: the mothers-
“Well, ladies, what’s new?” Rhea Royce, mother of two said enthusiastically. (AN: It took me several minutes of contemplation to figure out how to spell that, but that is mostly because I am an idiot.)
Alicent glanced over at Rhaenyra making an annoyed face, Rhaenyra covers her snickers by coughing. “I have decided that Luke, Jace and Joffrey will be taking a few extra privates this week and next week to help them out a little.” Rhea rolls her eyes.
Interview with Rhea (mother of Beala and Rhaena):
Rhea (28): “Rhaenyra will do anything in her power to give her kids extra help, its not right. Now, my little Beala, she would thrive with some extra privates.”
-Mothers-
“That’s wonderful, I bet they’ll appreciate that.” Alicent smiled at Rhaenyra.
Rhea rolled her eyes once more, “Yes, I’m sure.” She pauses briefly trying in vain to regain her composure. “What do you ladies think of the dances for this weekend?”
“Oh, I’m very excited, I love the idea for the group and the solos for my kids, I’m sure they are going to love it.” Alicent practically gushes.
Rhea, ever the bitch, rolls her eyes once more (AN: I can’t stop.) “Of course, you would be thrilled, three of your kids got solos and the other one got a part in the trio.”
“What is your problem?”
Rhaenys makes no comment on the inevitable fight, simply enjoying the show.
“My problem is that Criston clearly has favourites, and your kids are at the top of that list. He keeps giving them solos even though they can’t dance.” Rhea is yelling now.
Alicent looks at her for a moment before replying, “Sis- you better be joking.”
“I’m not joking, and I’m definitely not your sis, bitch.”
“Oooooooohhhhhh.” Fucking Rhaenyra, her best friend is about to fight someone and yet she jokes around.
“You better back the fuck up before you get smacked the fuck up hoe, because I’m not the one.” Rhea actually looks pretty intimidated; you would be too if there was a scary lady dressed in a green power suit willing and ready to beat your ass.
Rhea: 0
Alicent:1
Rhaenyra snickers again. “Haha,” that seems to hold a more mocking tone.
Alicent shoots her a look of disproval, Rhaenyra’s resolve seems to quickly fade upon meeting her gaze. “Sorry,” she mutters, clearly not sorry.
“Yeah, that’s what I thought.”  Alicent looks smug as ever.
-the children-
Aegon is doing pirouettes in the centre of the room, taking up so much space that everyone else has to dodge his feet in order to survive. He doesn’t seem at all bothered by the fact that Aemond keeps threatening him that if he doesn’t stop, he will shove his ballet shoe up Aegon’s rectum.
As Aegon continues to ignore his brother Jace makes his way over to Criston, “I’m sorry Mr Criston, but could you please tell Aegon to stop?”
Criston narrows his eyes towards the boy as he scrutinizes his choice of clothes. He straightens his posture before dropping down slightly to get close to Jace’s face. “Bother me again and I will kill you, you little twerp.” He whispers harshly to the literal child that he is beefing with.

listen listen
i know so many of yall will have complaints, which i personally will simply not pay attention to, bc personally this last episode was such a perfect adaptation
the fight with ares was phenomenal, and if you think for one second that it was underwhelming go back to reading the scene in the book, it was so fucking perfect, and percy's inexperience, and ares's slow showing off, and then the WAVE, and percy outsmarting ares and showing him he shouldn't have messed with him, im just !!! god i loved it
what takes the crown for me, is that sequence in olympus, from start to finish, a goddamn masterpiece, god fuck, lance riddick, rest in peace, but the TALENT the man displayed as zeus, the way he flawlessly showed off power with simply sitting in that chair and just standing, the ANGER when he attacks percy, the disbelief when poseidon shows up, he was so fucking good, god idk how anyone could portray zeus as easily as he did, and I'll miss him so much
and toby stephens too!! maybe it was my daddy issues, but poseidon surrendering, A GOD SURRENDERING, FOR HIS CHILD, "JUST SPARE MY SON"!!! and then the conversation with percy, god fuck, the raw emotion in his eyes, the PAIN when percy asks if he dreams of sally, i FELT THAT
and walker's acting, god he somehow has managed to accomplish the brown eyed puppy eyes with his big blue eyes, HE CAN PUT SO MUCH FEELING WITH JUST HIS EYES
and dont get me started on the betrayal of luke, both walker and charlie were amazing, and you can see how vulnerable luke looks already, even if little does he know that his fear, his pain, his manipulation is just getting started, the whole "im your friend percy, im not here to betray you", IT KILLED ME, the way he put so much feeling into it, god im crying
and annabeth being there! annabeth had to have known, bc why else would she lie about staying with chiron, why else not trust that they would be alright alone by themselves, the way she must have struggled so much with her inner feelings, bc she only fought back when Percy's life was genuinely in danger, she could have stopped the fight much earlier, but she couldn't make herself
and that ending 😭 them going their way, annabeth going back to her dad, percy going home, grover going on his search for pan, and PERCY proposing their pact to meet again in a year (he's definitely in for a surprise lmao), i fucking cried
and then meeting with sally, and SIKE, literally fucking taunting kronos like he's no big deal, and him calling kronos grandpa literally fucking killed me
i just need to say, yes, it wasn't perfect scene by scene from the book, it could have been more detailed, i would have loved more of annabeth, and no we didn't get the scorpion, but it was such a perfect adaptation
i get why everyone said this was the best episode, and i already know im going to rewatch the fuck about it, im genuinely so happy about it, i had such high expectations and this episode met every single one of them
tldr; percy jackson season 1, episode 8 is a masterpiece and you should definitely watch it <3

bored out of my mind so here r my obey me hcs for what halloween costume they would wear. idk
lucifer
i just know his ass is the parent with no costume walking behind all of his brothers and having to carry their candy. BUT if he HAD to wear a costume then i think hed wear like a vampire costume or smth. idk i dont think hed wear anything
mammon
werewolf. need i say more
leviathan
he has like a whole bunch of cosplay already so either a tsl character, ruri chan, or like a random ass anime character. asmo would see him putting on his ruri chan costume right before they go trick or treating up in the human world and be like "HELL NO YOUR NOT GOING OUT LIKE THAT" and make him wear something else. anyway he went out as a diff anime character. but SPECIFICALLY an anime character that has headphones so he can listen to happy halloween by junky on loop throughout the night to drown out the sounds of his brothers arguing while belphie and satan plot ways to kill lucifer (they are literally plotting out loud right behind him and lucifer repeatedly goes "you two realize i can hear you, right?" at least four different times and every time he says it they look at him like hes insane before going back to plotting out loud)
satan
either a werewolf or cat
heres why.
cat: for obvious reasons
werewolf: if lucifer decided to go as a vampire then hed go as a werewolf bc i just KNOW hes read twilight (source: trust me bro). if hes upset about being werewolves w mammon then hell go as a cat instead
asmodeus
its the one time of the year where he can wear whatever the fuck he wants so he goes all out!! makeup, dresses, high heels, everything!! hed probably wear one of those sexy nurse costumes and be silly all night while flirting w the humans that r giving out candy
beelzebub
burger. like the burger costume jade west wore from victorious. (please know what im taking about please know what im taking about please know what im taking about please know what im taking abou-) it makes him hungry tho so yall have to stop by mcdonalds every two seconds (rip ur wallet bc none of them have human world money </3) either that or a werewolf just like in the halloween event
belphegor
he wears the fuckin snork mimimi old man pjs and he has the long ass hat and fuzzy slippers and he carries around a candle and everything. also hes carrying his candy in a pillowcase and ends up making lucifer carry it not even halfway through the night bc "hes tired"
diavolo
hed be like "yippee!! human world candy!!" in his demon form and the humans giving him candy would be FUCKING TERRIFIED. theyre shaking and slowly giving him the whole bowl of candy and hes like "oh my!! i didnt know humans were so generous!"
barbatos
he probably wouldnt wear a costume. hed just be following diavolo around tho. diavolo would beg him to do smth tho so hed end up going in his demon form or smth
luke
he was debating what he should dress up as like the whole month of october and every. single. time he asked, the brothers would be like "go as a chihuahua." and hed lose his shit. he ended up going as a flying squirrel tho so that was adorable.
simeon
idk i feel like he wouldnt wear a costume. hed help luke carry around his candy tho. luke would beg him to just wear his angel outfit and hed give in. he would get soooo many compliments throughout the night.
solomon
hed be like a mad scientist w a white lab coat and safety goggles and gloves and everything
OR (this one is my favorite out of the two for him)
jack skellington. now here me out on this one-

Glove kink with Imperial!Luke Skywalker
Luke notices you letting your mind wander a bit too far during a meeting.
Content warnings: 18+ only! absolutely no minors!! Put your age in your bio to interact with my work. Glove kink, slight uniform kink, afab reader with she/her pronouns, use of “good girl” and “slut”, mild degradation, brief voyeurism as reader loudly fantasizes about Luke when she knows it’s likely he can hear her through the Force, power imbalance/workplace relationship, Imperial characters? lmk if I’ve forgotten something!
A/N: this is 2.2k. I’ve dropped any pretense of research into Imperial ranks or uniforms here, so sorry if my descriptions are off from canon. I had a vision and yall are here to get thirsty, not fact check me, right lol? haha. not proof read. something legit possessed me when I wrote this
                                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sliver of skin on Admiral Skywalker’s wrist that keeps peeking out from between the stark white of his uniform sleeve and the deep black of his glove is taunting you. You really should be more disciplined, but your mind refuses to let that little detail go now that you’ve noticed the tiniest crack in the veneer of the man in front of the room.
Despite practically being trained from birth to serve the Empire, Luke has always seemed unnaturally, compellingly human in appearance when compared to his father; he’s young, probably your age, and his blonde hair is several inches longer than regulation. His big blue eyes remind you of a mischievous puppy. Despite that, it’s obvious that Admiral Skywalker is Vader’s heir when he casts those big blue eyes on his subordinates, staring harshly at them just long enough to become uncomfortable, to be read as a warning.
You’re speaking from experience. He’s turned his gaze upon you now, and you feel a slight chill as you force yourself to pay attention to the content of his speech instead of the allure of his body.
It’s difficult to focus. It’s harder still to let go of the fact that you’re deeply attracted to the man, obsessing over him like you’re a schoolgirl with a crush again. It’s one thing to fantasize over Admiral Skywalker when you’re alone in your quarters at night, when you let yourself moan out for him, not as your commander but as Luke, just Luke, in the lonesome safety and darkness of your bedroom. But in a conference room, surrounded by others and in his presence? You’re being brave. Or stupid. Or both.
And for his part, Luke is not making it easy on you. He cuts a gorgeous figure in his uniform, not that you’ve ever seen him in anything else. You manage five whole minutes of clarity before someone presents a counterargument that irks Skywalker, and he crosses his arms; you watch the fabric of his uniform strain slightly against his biceps, and then you let yourself notice how his hands flex in his leather gloves.
You’re suddenly struck with just how badly you’d like Luke’s gloved fingers in your mouth. His gloved fingers, then his cock.
You glance away, disguising your arousal with momentary fear of seeing the admiral’s reaction to this perceived insubordination from your coworker. No one would fault you for it if your hesitation to see the admiral confront another officer were legitimate; to most people, Luke’s unnatural capabilities with the Force make him intimidating, and his quick temper makes him often downright terrifying. You’d probably agree if you weren’t busy being turned on by everything about him.
Once you’d begun to let your imagination run wild, your train of thought was hard to stop, and with Admiral Skywalker’s attention turned on the captain who had decided to run his mouth, you had no motivation to refocus. Flashes of Luke’s gloves running along your body float freely through your mind. The room grows warmer as you imagine the feel of the leather against your skin, smooth and so irresistible, you’d chase the sensation to the edge of the galaxy to feel him touch you.
You wonder if Luke would prefer playing with your tits or your ass, or maybe your thighs. Maybe all three, if you were ever so lucky. You shift in your seat, rubbing your own thighs together, feeling how your wetness is already gathering. The sensation is a reality check, particularly when your subconscious reminds you that Admiral Skywalker can read minds, so you do your best to keep your head down and your thoughts clean, at least until you could make it back to a private room. Maybe if you’d paid enough attention, you’d have noticed him stealing glances at you even as you pretended to focus. 
The meeting is over after another half hour. You prepare to gather yourself and leave swiftly, already aware just how much you’d pressed your luck today. You’re halfway to the door when Luke rounds on you, an expression you can’t read painted on his face.
“Lieutenant,” Luke pauses, “remind me of your name?” he asks, with a tone that indicates that he already knows full well who you are, and probably everything else about you, too. You stand at attention, stating your name as you’ve been trained to do since the academy, mentally noting that you’re probably going to be demoted today, if not completely transferred out, or worse. And you will have deserved it, too, for letting Skywalker’s damned body invade your psyche.
“What’s the matter?” Skywalker tsks, sizing you up, invading your personal space menacingly, the way a predator stalks its prey. He’s so close to you, one more inch would mean you were touching.
“For a girl who imagined having my cock down her throat and my hands on her body not even an hour ago, you’re so rigid and formal,” he murmurs in your ear.
Fuck it, you think, calculating your response. He already knows. It can’t get any worse.
“I can be... sloppy instead, if that’s what you’d prefer... Sir,” you answer, tacking on the honorific as if you’d ever forget it in the first place, and break your stance to turn your head towards him, looking him in the eye. The tension between the two of you seems to slow time, and you smile demurely, letting your gaze flit to his lips and back up.
Luke smirks at you for half a moment before he leans in and ravages your mouth, nipping at you and claiming you utterly. You haven’t much of a chance to reciprocate before he pushes you away and to your knees; you go willingly, the knot of arousal in your lower stomach tightening with his every move.
“Show me,” he commands, and you move to unzip his trousers before he bats your hands away.
“No,” he says, “you don’t get to blow me yet. You haven’t proven yourself.”
You involuntarily whine when Luke grabs your face and runs his thumb over your lips. You’re committing to memory every detail, every sensation, every millisecond, and he’s already overwhelming you.
“Besides,” he almost laughs, “I’m convinced this is what you really want anyway,” he says, not pausing to remove his glove before shoving his middle and ring finger into your mouth.
“Suck,” he demands, “suck my fingers like you’d suck my cock.”
The taste of his leather glove in your mouth is heavenly, and Luke looks like nothing short of an angel towering above you, all dressed in white with his halo of golden hair framing his face. You keen and sigh around his hand and get to work taking him deep, gagging on his digits and making good on your promise, drooling dripping around him.
Luke does laugh then, a little bark of laughter like he can’t believe what he’s seeing or feeling.
“You really are sloppy. You’re a slut for me, aren’t you?” he groans, unable to remain unaffected. You can see his dick straining against his white pants, the outline of his cock going straight to your core. “You’d take anything from me, even just my gloves are good enough for you to fuck.”
“Mhmm,” you affirm around his fingers. He withdraws his fingers from you then, and you pout and chase after him as he peels the wet glove off his hand.
You’re mesmerized by Luke’s bare, almost delicate skin, and you can’t tear your eyes away until he tosses the leather glove at you, and it lands before you on the ground where you kneel.
“Put it on and show me how you touch yourself,” he commands. You’ve never divested yourself of your pants faster, so desperate to do anything he wants you to do, and even more desperate to get yourself off, cunt dripping and throbbing with the desire to be filled. You shove your hand into Luke’s glove, and know it won’t satisfy you completely; your hands not big enough to fill the item of clothing out completely, but you will make it enough if that’s what Luke wants from you.
When you look back up, he’s sitting in a conference chair, having finally opened his trousers, his cock in his ungloved hand, eyes trained on where your fingers tease your clit. He’s as gorgeous as you knew he’d be, long and thick and flushed pink at his tip and so fucking pretty. You want to touch him. You want him to touch you more than ever.
You leak at the sight of his hard dick, and you’re so wet against Luke’s glove on your own hand, moaning and sighing for him.
Two of your fingers, even with the addition of Luke’s glove, is still inadequate. Now that he’s in front of you, like a prize dangled within arm’s reach, so close to what you really want, your body demands him and no less. You rock on the edge of your orgasm and look up at him, batting your eyes and begging him with your expression to have mercy on you.
“What do you need, darling?” Luke asks, understanding your body language perfectly.
“You, Admiral,” you moan.
“I know that’s not the name you usually scream when you get off,” he taunts, slowly stroking his cock. “Try again.”
“Luke! Fuck, L-Luke please!” you beg, not having time to process that Luke knows you’ve been habitually touching yourself to the thought of him.
“Mmm, good girl,” he murmurs, “and what do you need from me?”
He’s being deliberately cruel, almost taunting you with the power he has over your body, and it intoxicates you. “I need you to touch me,” you answer.
“Where?” Luke smirks, rising from the conference chair and joining you on the floor. With his one gloved hand, he touches along your collarbone.
“Here?”
Your breathe hitches, your hand on your cunt having stilled when he began touching you. The feeling of the leather on your skin has you intoxicated.
He moves on without an answer. “Here?” he taunts, lightly tracing down your stomach.
“What about here?” he pauses on your bare thigh, mindlessly tapping out a pattern on your skin there. You shake your head slightly, completely under his spell. He covertly slips his glove from your hand back onto his own.
“Well, if you’re not going to say where you want me to touch you, I’ll leave,” he fake-sulks as he pulls his glove back on. His twitching, leaking cock rocking up against your thigh tells another story entirely. He leans in, his mouth almost against your own.
“Y/N,” Luke breathes, “tell me you want my fingers in your pussy and I’ll give them to you.”
“Luke, please, I want your fingers in my pussy,” you moan.
“All you ever had to do was ask,” Luke quips, and you briefly see a sense of humor within him before his middle finger is knuckle-deep in your cunt. You throw your head back, overwhelmed with the pleasure of his thicker digit inside of you for the first time.
“M-more, please!” you shout. You’ve played with yourself enough that Luke easily slides another inside of you with only a little resistance. He plays with you a little, scissoring his fingers inside of you and stretching your cunt.
“You’re going to ruin my gloves, you know,” Luke moans almost wistfully. “You’ve already gotten them so wet. What a fucking slut.”
You gasp and bear down on him, knowing he’s right.
“Don’t think I can’t feel you clenching on my fingers when I call you that. You like being my slut?”
“Yes!” you cry out, reaching for his cock, wanting to pleasure him even in your own overwhelmed state. His hand rocks in and out of you while his thumb rubs at your clit. The leather against your sensitive nub is the greatest sensation you’ve ever felt.
“No,” Luke admonishes, “this is about your desperate little pussy, interrupting my meeting. You can get me off later. You’re the slut who couldn’t wait to get my fingers inside you.”
Later. He’s going to let you see him like this again.
“Fuck, I’m going to cum,” you manage to gasp out, nearly beyond words. “O-oh, Luke! P-please make me cum!” 
Luke claims your mouth, his hand that is not buried in your cunt coming up to toy at your tits.
He leans down, whispering in your ear.
“Cum on my fingers, darling. Soak my glove and I’ll let you keep the pair. Let you use them again and again like a toy when I’m not there, like the slut you are for me.”
Your vision whites out, toppling over the edge of your long-awaited orgasm. You’re somewhat aware that you’re babbling Luke’s name and various expletives over and over as you finish. When you come down from your high, Luke has removed his gloves, an ever so slight blush on his face. It’s sweet in a way you didn’t know to expect from the man.
“They’re all yours,” he smirks, handing the pair to you.
You take them, finding yourself suddenly a bit embarrassed. “What if I want the man who wore them, too?” you ask hesitantly, eyeing his still-hard cock in his trousers.
“You can have him,” Luke says, “I’m nowhere near done with you, darling.”
You decide you like being his darling as well as you like being his slut.

66. The only thing I want is you Bros like football, right?
Word count less than 500, more than 400
Superbowl Sunday, Half Time Show, living room of the Morgan house.
“You two are such children, I swear.” 
They were walking back from the kitchen, Luke with a bowl of pretzels, Morgan with a pair of beers. 
“I don’t even know what that means. Maybe she-“ he started in again.
“Really? Morgan, Garcia won't blah blah blah!" 
"Oh, Angel Face, you would not believe what Alvez did again!" 
"Then, Blah blah blah he’s so blah." 
"And you! You sit here all “Why can’t she just be nice to me? Why can’t she just give a little? Morgan, what can I do? How does she still hate me after all this time?" Y’all are tired! Just grow some nerve and ask her out! She definitely doesn’t hate you." 
Luke gave a doubtful look taking a swig, “She has never stopped snapping at me, she doesn’t ask me what kind of cake I want for my birthday, the only time her icy exterior melts around me is if my dog or a drink is in her hands…I could go on..." 
Morgan held up a hand stopping him, "Look, she would kill me if she knew I told you, but i’m dying listening to you both. I was making up her bed in the guest room last time she was here, we’d all had a few too many glasses of Savannah’s sangria, and she told me the only thing she wants is you. Sure it was peppered with a lot of other things, but Emily told me a long time ago, when a woman tells you her feelings, she wants you to listen. So I listened, she wants you, man." 
"She-" Luke cleared his throat, leaning forward, distracting himself with choosing a pretzel from the table in front of them, "She said that? To you?” He glanced up from the bowl catching his eye.
Morgan laughed, "I think yall been playing this school yard pigtail pulling, pinch and push for so long you forgot neither of you do it with anybody else." 
Luke grinned lopsided, “What are you saying? You want me to pull your pigtails Morgan? Gonna have to start growin’ out that hair…” 
He swiped at the hand drifting towards him, chuckling, “Don’t make me walk back my feelings on this-”
“Feelings?” he questioned, eyebrow peaking. 
"I support this. I trust you, I want this for her. Will it be nice not having to hear about one from the other?” He threw his head back into the armchair "God, yes. But mostly I want her to be happy, and I trust you to do that.”
Luke nodded slowly, tongue sticking to teeth, “I should have guessed your blessing, would be needed.”
Morgan tilted his beer towards the man, grinning. "Oooh, not needed, but make no mistake, it definitely helps."

“god dammit.” selene curses, she slept in late. luke would be home any minute. she scurries around her room, throwing on the first thing she sees. throwing the rest of her items in her bag along with her work uniform, she peers into her brothers room. no sight of him she makes her way towards the front door.
a car door slams shut, making selene retreat steps. “fuck fuck fuck.” she races to the back door, making it just as luke opens the front door. she jumps over the side, darting into a full sprint away from the house.
after being a block away selene stops, catching her breathe. she got lucky, god knows what luke’s mood would’ve been. she’s learned after too many times being stuck when luke got home was not a good thing.
she pulled her phone out, sending a text towards her brother and best friend; kiara.
hippie bitch: where ya @ ??
she made way towards john b’s, thankfully his place was never too far. john b was like a brother to her, cute kid. you say kid but in reality your only a year older, almost about to be 18.
she reaches his place, walking up and into the house; not even bothering to knock.
“hello?” she calls out, throwing her bag on the couch.
john b walks in from the bathroom, “wassup.” selene throws herself down beside her stuff.
“sorry to crash, dad was home.“ she muttered. she looks around in her bag for her weed stash, just to come up empty handed.
john b makes way into his kitchen “lena you know this place is your home too.” she gives him a soft smile as he reaches for a beer, “want one?”
selena shakes her head, “no i have work today, do you know where jay keeps his stash?” she stood up.
“should be under the bathroom sink.” she rolls her eyes, the bathroom? fucking weirdo.
she leans down grabbing out the papers and baggie of weed. she heads out to the porch, john b following.
“what time do you have work?” he pops open his beer, selene breaks down the weed.
“3″ she stops and checks her phone seeing its 1:49. john b nods.
“i can give you a ride.” he offers, and she thanks him. she finishes up rolling the joint, lighting it. she hits it a few times before passing it to john b.
“so any new clues?” selene gives him a look. he sighs, “i don’t know, i keep listening to that recording from my dad. if he found the gold, i think for sure the messages are left for me to go find it.”
she nods, glancing down at her phone seeing two messages.
“i think that your right. look i dont know if your dad is exactly gone... but i dont think your crazy. it makes sense to me.”
john b smiles at that, relieved at least one of his friends got his back. selene reads that her brother is at work with pope, kie is with her mom.
she takes the joint from john, puffing on it a few times. she was pretty stressed out, home life is getting rough. the pogues life just got more messy, and on top of that working for kie’s dad wasn’t bad. she just was exhausted from everything.
she passed the joint back to john b, the time was 2:07. “after that’s done, imma go get ready. thanks for the ride too, by the way.”
john b brushes her off, hitting it a few more times before passing it back. selene hits the roach before tossing it into the ash tray.
//
selene had been at work for about an hour now. it was decently busy, she made a few really good tips so far. she puts in her tables order when she hears a few voices she wish she hadn’t.
rafe,topper, and kelce walk through the door. a little odd since its not on their side of town. she sighs finishing up her tab. she grabs 3 menus before walking towards the group of boys.
“hey guys.” she puts on a fake smile. “selene? i didn’t know you worked here.” rafe laughs cheekily.
“isn’t your part of town, rafe.” she mutters giving them the menus. “what can i get you to drink?”
topper looks her up and down, “i’ll take a coke.” kelce seconds that. she turns to look at rafe.
“i’ll take a beer.” she mentally rolls her eyes, “can i see your id?”
he scoffs, but pulls it out anyways. she knew he was 21, she just wanted to give him a hard time. “i’ll be back with those.”
as she walked away she heard rafe mutter “fucking pogue bitches, man. i mean she’s hot but she’s fucking trash.”
she bit her tongue, nothing he says will hurt. rafe was a piece of shit, he picked on her friends which was a little fucked. considering his age, and her brothers age.
she made two cokes, grabbing rafe’s beer. she made way back to their table. “here we go, two cokes. beer.” she places them on the table.
she ignored the way rafe’s eyes raked her body, “are yall ready to order?” her pen and notepad already in her hand.
“yeah, you got anything here that doesn’t suck?” topper questions making the other boys snicker. she tries her best to keep her cool, she is at work.
“everything is good, you would know if you actually picked up the menu.” she shot back, kelce laughs at that. topper face scrunches like he���s in pain, making selene hold back her laugh.
“i’d be careful there, selene. don’t wanna end up like your boy pope.” rafe warns, a conceding tone held within his words. selene froze at that statement.
“what the hell do you mean, rafe? what happened with pope.” she glares him down, her eyes flickering to the other boys. topper’s face held what almost looked like guilt.
“oh you know, just made sure he knew he wasn’t welcomed back on our terp anymore.” he leaned back in his seat. selene felt her body heat up.
she shoves her pad back into her apron, “a little ironic isn’t it? being on our terp and all. god rafe, you are pathetic.” she glared down at the boy, not feeling afraid at all.
he sat up a little at that. “now that’s not how you treat a customer.” she laughed.
“good thing i don’t fucking care.” with that she storms off, telling another waitress she needed her to take over. she walks into the office where kie dad was.
“hey mr.carrera.” she changes her voice to soft, unlike the tone she used with rafe.
“hey selene.” he offers her a smile. “what’s going on?”
she bit her lip softly, “is there anyway i can go home? im really not feeling well.”
he nods at her, “yeah, that’s fine. go ahead, i hope you get to feeling better.” she throws a grateful smile.
“thank you, im really sorry. i dont know whats up with me.” with that she heads out the office, not missing the glare rafe sent her. she matched his look, walking out the front door.
//
selene made her way down the familiar street, she pulled her phone out to text her brother.
hippie bitch: hey are u @ home?
a few dots appear,
butthole: no. john b’s
she cursed under her breathe. her fingers typing away,
hippie bitch: im finna be home. gonna grab a bag and be over
...
butthole: be safe dads home. call me if shit goes south
she likes his message, she walks up to the house. peering through the window she sees luke asleep, beer cans litter his area.
she walks around to the back, slipping in quietly. she double checks to make sure he’s still asleep, before heading to her room.
she shined her phone light around, digging around grabbing a bathing suit and some clothes. she checks her drawer for her weed, thanking the gods when she finds it along with her vape.
she shoves everything into her bag, turning to head to the bathroom. she freezes seeing her dad in the hallway, looking at her with anger.
“where the fuck have you been, girl?” his voice boomed through the small space. her blood runs cold.
“i-i was a-at work.” her voice comes out soft and unsteady. she knew her bag was behind her, but she wouldn’t be able to make it past him; nor out her window.
“work? for two fucking days? i dont believe you.” he mutters walking closer to her.
selene goes to speak, but luke backhands her. she stumbles to the side, clutching her cheek in pain. “god, look around at this shit show. nothing has been cleaned, selene. you and your fucking bastard brother don’t do shit around here!”
she turns to face him, her eyes watery but she stares him down. he grabs her by the arm, leading her into the living room. he shoves her forward, she loses balance stumbling onto her knees.
“does any of this look clean to you?” he yells, a sob escapes her lips. “does it?” his voice bellows again.
“n-no sir!” she raises her voice, wiping away her tears. luke yanks her up slamming her against the near by wall. her head pounds, she stares into his eyes.
“just like your fucking mother, cant do shit right.” he hits her again, this time in her side. if he didn’t have a hold on her, her legs would’ve given out. she groans in pain, trying to bring some air into her lungs. she felt some blood run into her mouth, grimacing at the metallic taste.
she gathers some up spitting it onto his face, he growls wiping it away. his hand flying across her cheek again. her eyes squeeze shut for a moment, luke chuckling to himself.
“truly pathetic, girl.”
luke sways a second, she already know he’s way past his limit. using this to her advantage, she shoves her knee into his croch. she pushes him away as he doubles over. she runs to her room, locking the door behind her.
she picks up her bag, making her way to the window. luke starts beating on the door, “you fucking cunt!”
the door shook as he kicked, she rushed to open the window. “open this fucking door!”
she quickly slipped out, running out the backyard and onto the side walk. her tears ran silently down her cheek, she held her side as she slowly made her way to jj’s.
he hits really fucking hard, her side and head aching. she rummaged through her bag pulling her phone out.
3 missed calls from her brother. she ignored them clicking her camera on. she studied her appearance. blood dripped from her nose, her cheek rosy red. she tried fixing her hair, along with stopping her tears.
after what seemed longer than ever, she arrived at john b’s. slowly treading her way to the door, she prayed that no one would stop her when she entered. not exactly did her brother or her tell the rest of the group about what happens at home. they just knew neither of the two wanted to be at their home.
she enters the door, seeing john b and jj joking around. at the sound jj eyes meet hers, he immediately jumps up.
“Selene!” he runs forward, checking her marks. she pushes away from him softly, “jay...”
he stares at her, his eyes glossy. “i tried calling you.” her eyes flicker to john b, who was quiet letting the two siblings have their moment.
“i was kinda busy.” her voice held exhaustion. he pulls her along to the bathroom, routine set in stone. jj took the most abuse out of the two, but this time he wasn’t there to protect his sister.
she sat on the toilet, tears flowing again. “where else?” he questions, opening the first aid.
“no where . im okay.” she lies, her side couldn’t be fixed, no point in mentioning it. jj rolls his eyes, but leaves it. wiping her nose off, she stares silently at the floor.
“you shouldn’t have went alone. i’m sorry.” jj mutters softly, deep regret filled him. “it’s not your fault our dad sucks, and im not your responsibility jay.” she leans back as he finished.
he scoffs at that, “fucking please, selene. you are my sister, my blood. you will always be my responsibility.” she smiles at that. she’s lucky she has jj.
“i love ya’ jay.” she lets herself lean into his embrace, he kisses her forehead.
“i love ya too, sel.”
// 
a few days later, selene was enjoying herself at a party. pogues and kooks filled the beach. her bruise was a fading blueish green color, her side still a deep purple though.
selene decided to let loose tonight, getting fucked up all the way. she giggled into kie’s side, almost slipping off the log she sat on.
her brother was flirting it up with some touron; john b and pope playing some game. a few tourons sat around us, selene looks around everyone having a good time.
she decided to get another drink once kie started asking about zodiac signs. making her way towards the keg, she began filling her cup up.
“oh shit, look who it is. pogue princess.” rafe camerons voice called out behind her. selene rolled her eyes, topping her cup off.
“king kook.” she held her cup up at him, mockingly. he walked closer a cup of his own in his hand.
he goes to grab the nozzle, sending a cheeky smirk her way. “you know you weren’t that nice the other day.”
she eyes rolled again, “when are you ever nice?” she retorted. he turns to face her, the distant fire flickered across her face. he caught site of the bruise she sported, confusion washes over him.
“what the hell happened?” he points to her bruise, she moves her hair to cover it.
“wha- nothing.” she stuttered, taking a step back. he moves forward, “no dude, seriously. are you good?” worry laced in his tone.
she scoffs, “what is the rafe cameron worried?”
he rolls his eyes, “who did that? jj?”  she laughs at that.
“what the fuck? no, my brother did not fucking hit me.” she takes a nervous sip of her beer, not liking this situation at all. rafe was too nosy.
he steps back, staring at her with disbelief. “then who did it?” 
she glares daggers into his head, “none of your business, asshole. now excuse me.” she goes to push past him, he catches her arm.
what rafe did notice was the way she flinched at his touch, he quickly lets go. “m-my bad.”
with one last look she walks off in the direction of her friends, rafe watching her body retreat. he rubs the back of his neck, not understanding why he cares so much.
selene walks away not understanding why he gave a fuck.
//
a few days after the party, selene was walking towards john b’s house after work. it was late and she was exhausted. it was good minute walk from her work to john’s.
she turned down the main road, when she looked back seeing a nice truck come down the road. she held her hand up to cover her eyes, the lights shining bright as hell.
she turned and kept walking, until she heard the truck slow down. she fumbled with a pocket knife she kept in her bag for emergencies.
the truck pulled beside her, “selene?” a voice called out. her head whipped to the sound of her name, rafe cameron sat behind the wheel.
“what the fuck rafe?” she yelled holding her knife out, “fucking scared me to death.”
he glances at her knife, “why do you have a knife?” 
she closes it, putting it back in her bag. “i thought you were a rapist or something.” he shrugs.
“why are you out late?” he calls out, she continues walking.
“i could ask you the same thing, cameron.” she pulls her ponytail out, ruffling her hair a little.
“i- i uh, didn’t wanna be home.” he spoke honestly, causing selene to stop for a moment.
“so you decided to bother me?”
he parks the truck, getting out and walking towards her. she watches confused, letting her hand slip back into her bag.
“no! i saw you walking, i was gonna see if you wanted a ride.”
she gives him a confused glance, “why did you get out the truck to ask me that?”
he ponders his actions for a second, “ i uh- you kept walking. look im trying to be nice, really. i can give you a ride home.”
she gives him a once over, before speaking up. “fine, but no serial killer shit. i will stab you.” she warns.
rafe holds his hands up in surrender, walking to open the passenger door. she follows graciously, “also your not taking me home. you can drop me off somewhere else.”
he closes the door after she gets in, circling around to his side. “don’t wanna be home either?” he questions after getting in.
 she stays silent, only a mere nod was given. “where am i taking ya?”
she bites her lip, “john b’s.” she points him in the direction.
rafe clears his throat, “is john b your boyfriend?”
selene bust out into laughter, “god no. he’s like a little brother, it’s just easier to stay there when my dad’s home.” she instantly regrets the words that came out. she didn’t need rafe to know about her dad. he doesn’t need to know her like that.
the car went silent for a few minutes, only thing being said were directions. until rafe spoke up, “is that how you got your bruise?” he spoke hesitantly.
“your dad?”
selene stayed quiet, not bothering to acknowledge his question. “im not trying to be rude. i understand what your goin-”
selene cut him off, “you dont know shit, so stop while your ahead. the audacity you have to assume shit. god i get your life is perfect, doesn’t mean you can start prying into others.”
rafe looks taken back, his hand grips the steering wheel. “guess what princess, my life isn’t perfect. just ‘cause my dad can put on a show doesn’t mean a damn thing.” he snaps back
selene sits back in her seat, rafe has daddy issues? thats some news.
“so what you got daddy issues too, you think that we are gonna trauma bond or some shit?” she spat.
they pulled up to john b’s, she glared at him. “no, i dont know what i thought.” he mutters.
she bit her lip, “i uh-” she sighs, “im sorry. i just dont like talking about it.”
rafe nods staring into her eyes, “i wasn’t trying to pry. i was honestly worried.” selene stares back, unable to look away.
“why would you be worried?” she finally looks away, fumbling with her bracelets. rafe sighs,
“maybe because it’s not everyday a pretty girl has that bad of a bruise.”
selene rolls her eyes, “well i can take care of myself. so you dont have to worry anymore.” she grabs her bag.
he goes to grab her, but quickly stops himself. “i still will worry.”
she nods at that, grabbing the car door handle. rafe quckly blurts,
“wait, selene.”
she raises a eyebrow at his actions, “what rafe?”
he runs a hand through his hair, “let me see your phone.” she throws a confused glance his way, but nothing less hands over her phone. he types away for a moment before handing it back.
she looks down seeing his contact now added, “if things ever go south, you can always call me.” he offers.
selene softly smiles at the boy, it was weird to experience the nice side of rafe. he seemed genuine with everything, it made her feel a type of way. having him say he worries about her.
“goodnight rafe.” she leans forward kissing his cheek, with that she turns and lets herself out the truck.

Word count: 7.7k lol
Warnings: swearing, typos, lil angst
Masterlist

Stupid boy, stupid feelings, stupid friend, stupid books, stupid small fucking locker…
My grumbling only stops when Flynn arrives at my locker in concern. If my grumbling wasn’t an obvious indicator of my current disdain, then it was the rough attempt at shoving my books into the cramped locker.
“Uh, who pissed in your cereal this morning?” Flynn asked slowly. She flickered back and forth between my disgruntled expression and my locker. 
“Luke. He was supposed to drive me to school this morning, but he had to take care of something and cancelled. He thought yesterday was Saturday instead of Sunday and therefore had whoever that blonde chick from his history class come over and then this morning had to drive her home and to school,” I rant while attempting to close my locker, “and to top it off, since I waited for him and then had to drive myself, there were no more parking spaces so I had to park on the street!” I huff when I finally shove my locker closed.
“Yikes. At least you won’t have to see his face until lunch,” Flynn offers with a shrug. I shake my head and walk with her to our first class.
“You mean he’s safe until lunch. That boy, I swear…” 
-
“You owe me, asshole,” I sigh once I sit down at our lunch table. By the time it was lunch, my anger faded to resignation.
“I know, I’m so sorry, Y/N. I don’t know how I mixed up my days,” Luke apologizes as soon as the words leave my mouth.
“What happened?” Julie asks once she sits down next to me. Reggie and Alex already knew the situation because the boys were always early for the lunch period. All three still grimace when I explain it to Julie.
“You dummy” was all that Julie had to say to Luke before she started to eat. As soon as the guys started to joke around with him, Flynn, Julie, and I talked amongst ourselves, complaining about our upcoming tests.
I was back in good spirits after lunch and walked with Luke to literature, the only class we shared. It was definitely the class I struggled to pay attention the most because we always messed around. Luke never failed to make me laugh or distract me somehow. Our teacher, Mr. Delusa, was used to our antics, and, frankly, didn’t care enough to yell at us for misbehaving. This time, Luke decided to make up for ditching me by writing little compliments on my notebook.
Y/N is so smart. 
She’s smarter than me. (he gives me a rough nudge when I underline that line)
She’s also really cool
But not cooler than me. (nudges me again when I cross that line out)
But she’s still awesome.
And she’s prettier than Mr. Delusa.
Although I already forgave him since it really wasn’t a big deal, I appreciated his efforts - more than I should. His silly attempt at making me feel better worked too well and I could feel my heart start to beat faster when he attempts to write more legibly. It wasn’t hard to be attracted to Luke - gorgeous, passionate, charming, funny, etc. But the way he truly cared for his friends was what really made me fall for him.
Now Luke Patterson is a good friend, don’t get me wrong. He’s always ready to stand up for the five of us if we ever ran into trouble. He’s talked Julie and Flynn down from fighting Carrie multiple times, but has encouraged them to share a few words with the girl whenever she crossed the line. And, according to Luke, no idea that Alex and Reggie have is a stupid idea and should definitely be pursued. Luke’s always the first one to push us to do things despite any nerves. The amount of times Luke has stopped Alex from backing out of asking Willie out before they started dating was too many to count. He was always there for us - well most of the time.
Because despite being a good friend, Luke is definitely not a good boyfriend. Or that’s what he claims as to why he prefers flings and one-off “dates” instead of getting into a relationship. His attitude towards dating is always flippant and never serious. He’d rather be with one girl on a Friday and then another one on a Tuesday than settle down with one person for, god forbid, more than three days. He’s escaped into another girl’s arms one too many times - enough to get a reputation around school. But it is what it is. Luke is a good friend, just with a notorious reputation. 
“So are we still gonna check out that new breakfast place on Saturday?” I ask him as we pack up our backpack at the end of class.
To give context, Luke and I came up with this goal to find the best breakfast place in town. One random day during the summer, we talked about our love of breakfast foods and eventually began to argue on which restaurant had the best breakfast. It got so heated that we didn’t talk for a few days, only making up with each other after we established this mission. So, around once or twice a month, we go out and test a restaurant. Sometimes, our friends happily joined us in our endeavors, but most of the time I would find myself alone with the doe-eyed boy. 
That’s probably when my feelings started to change for him. In between the bites of pancakes and the banter, I got to know one of my best friends a little better. I found myself starting to stare whenever he drank a sip of coffee or falling in love with his laugh. His habit of tapping a beat on the table became more endearing than annoying. Even our arguments over what we thought of the food was starting to become a favorite pastime because it was always filled with teasing. Sometimes, I caught myself slipping and imagining that these were dates. But when school started back up and his attention was directed elsewhere, I realized that I was only a fool stuck in a sticky situation.
“Yeah! And I’ll pay for the meal to make up for this morn-“
“Hey Luke!” Sara, our classmate, interrupts with a cheerful tone. Already a little annoyed, I throw my backpack on as she continues to talk, knowing that we were having a conversation. “I was wondering if you were free tonight for some studying?” Sara asks while looking him up and down.
“You mean study for our lit test this Friday right?” Luke flirts right back. I roll my eyes at the low voice he used before making my way out of the classroom, frown etched on my face. I lost him as soon as Sara batted her long eyelashes at him. 
-
I try not to let his dismissal get to me as I make my way over to Julie’s house after school, but I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about it. To be honest, the fact that he just immediately turned his attention to Sara or the fact that he continues to get with these girls with no second thought weren’t the things that bothered me the most. No, it’s my damn stupid feelings that are driving me up the wall. 
“Are you ready to get this project over with?” Julie asks when she opens the door for me.
“No, but do I have a choice?” She chuckles at my joke while I set my bag down and take out my laptop. 
Our stupid research project distracts me from my disheartened feelings. Julie helps by being the best project partner with her intelligence and quick thinking. I couldn’t believe that we had finished it in just a few hours until we were happily closing our laptops for the night. Closing all those tabs on our laptops was almost as euphoric as stuffing our faces with dinner as a reward for our hard work.
“So how did our favorite guitarist make it up to you after lunch?” Julie asked with a pointed look.
“He said he’ll pay for breakfast on Saturday,” I answer with a shrug. “Or he would’ve finished saying that if Sara didn’t interrupt with a ‘study invitation’.”
“Let me guess, Luke’s over at her place right now?” Julie asks with a knowing tone. I try not to think about him and Sara and their ‘studying’.
“Oh, I don’t doubt it,” I roll my eyes in hopes that Julie doesn’t notice my pained expression. She peers at me curiously as I focus on finishing my food.
“So how long have you liked him?” Julie asks softly. I don’t answer her question as I start cleaning up our dinner. I take a second to gather my words in the silence that follows.
“Since this summer,” I answer quietly. The nerves in my voice weren’t from fear of her judgment but rather admitting these feelings out loud. Now it all seemed too real - my feelings of attraction and heartbreak for Luke is out now without any way of taking them back or pretending they didn’t exist. Julie nods knowingly. 
“Me and Alex thought the whole breakfast mission was just an excuse to hide your dates from us. When we realized that you guys actually weren’t dating, well, we thought you would end up together eventually. But then school started back up and Luke…” I shake my head as she trails off, understanding what she was referring to.
“Then school started back up,” I repeat. I come back around and sat down next to Julie who was grimacing. “I almost forgot his reputation. Won’t be making that mistake again.”
“Maybe you should talk to him about your feelings, I can tell that you’re hurting from this,” Julie offers, ironically echoing some of Luke’s words when she was nervous to talk to Nick before they started dating. 
“Hellllll no! I am not gonna tell him I like him! Are you crazy?” I look at her with wide eyes.
“But what if he likes you too? Because me and Alex thought he did,” Julie argues back.
“I can guarantee that he does not like me back. He could have any girl he wants and he clearly understands that if this morning and this afternoon is anything to go by!” I argue back. Julie could see the pain in my eyes from my statement. 
“I just hate seeing you hurt over him. He may be our friend, but I don’t like the way he’s treating you,” Julie says in her soft tone. She wraps an arm around me and rests her head against my shoulder.
“It’s fine, Jules. These feelings will hopefully go away eventually,” I say. We both were unconvinced, but didn’t say anything else on the subject.
-
When Luke rests against the booth and lays an arm across the back of it, all I could think of was the unfairness of it all. Why did I have to like this good-looking, fellow breakfast loving, idiot of a friend? He’s not allowed to sit there with his charming smile and beg me to listen to the band’s new songs with excitement in his voice and not know how he makes me feel. Why did my heart want a heartbreaker?
“And Alex actually has a duet with Julie for this song and it sounds so good! You have to come by for rehearsals at some point next week because this song is fucking killer!” He exclaims as he digs into his breakfast burrito.
“I will gladly listen to that. Man, I haven’t been to one of your rehearsals in a while,” I say thoughtfully, while taking a sip of my chocolate milk. Don’t judge me - chocolate milk is for all ages (and Luke agrees).
“You haven’t,” he muses with a mouth full of food, “I miss having you there.”
“Really?” I ask, successfully masking the eagerness in my voice.
“Yeah! Who else is going to back me up when Alex starts roasting me for literally doing nothing?” Luke tries to smirk, but his blown out cheeks from all the food he stuffed in his mouth made him look like a chipmunk.
“Um, still no one since I usually join him? You forget that I’m literally only there to help Julie keep y’all from fooling around too much.” He playfully rolls his eyes before he steals a piece of bacon from my plate and quickly shoves it into his mouth. “Hey!”
“You deserve that, you meanie.” He tries to swat my hand away from stealing a piece of his bacon, but it doesn’t work. I happily chew on my new bacon, closing my eyes in exaggeration. I miss his twinkling eyes and soft smile. 
“Well, I don’t know about you, but I think that was a pretty solid breakfast,” I observe after I swallow the last of my food. I scold Luke when he lets out a burp with no hesitation. He lightly kicks my ankle in retaliation.
“It was. But does it deserve the title of the best breakfast?” He tilts his head and I almost get distracted by how his jaw becomes sharper from this angle. He raises his eyebrow as he looks at me expectantly.
I shake my head no and he agrees with me with a chuckle. Once the check comes around, I reach for it, but he swats at my hand again.
“I’m paying for it, remember?” He quickly takes out his wallet and starts taking out money. I lightly kick him under the table as a thank you. I don’t think he took it as an action of gratitude, but oh well.
Once he pays the bill he gets out of the booth and stretches. A sliver of his toned torso is level with my eyesight and I truly try not to drool right then and there. I busy myself with gathering my things and standing as well. We both say thank you to our waitress who wishes us goodbye but not before shifting her eyes between us in a suggestive way. I wanted to correct her and say we were not on a date, but Luke was already holding the door open for me. I wrap my jacket closer to me as we step out of the cozy restaurant and walk beside him to his car.
“So you down to hang out still? We could go to the mall or something?” I offer, wanting to spend time with my elusive friend. 
“I can’t. I got a date with Amanda in an hour. You remember her right? She’s the girl who sits by our lunch table,” Luke says while he starts driving. 
“Oh,” I say quietly. The content headspace I was in fades away as Luke turns up the radio and drives back to my place, not knowing any better.
“But we could hang out tomorrow if you want?” he suggests, giving me a side glance. Not even his nice profile could distract me from the hurt slowly starting to creep into my chest.
“No, uh, I gotta help my mom out at her shop tomorrow,” I lie. I didn’t want to meet up with him, knowing that it would be after tonight’s activities.
He nods and we continue to drive in silence. I turn to him and quietly observe him for a few moments. His soft lips were hidden under his teeth as he chew on them out of habit. His sharp features makes me want to reach out and trace the lines of his face, but I knew it wasn’t my place. With that reality check, I put myself back into the present. I wanted to ask him something again, but I feared that his answer hasn’t changed.
“So you’re still all about that one-night stand lifestyle?” I ask curiously, gauging his reaction. He lifts his chin up as he watches the road ahead of him.
“Hasn’t done me wrong yet.” He chuckles at my raised eyebrow as a montage of different angry girls snapping at Luke flicker through my mind. “Okay, it hasn’t failed me yet.”
“So you still don’t want to have a girlfriend?”
“Why would I?” he asked incredulously. I thought I would feel defeat just like I did the last time he explained his adventurous lifestyle, but instead I felt a combination of numbness and acceptance at his answer. It was better than feeling hurt.
“It’s just nice to have someone you know? Someone to have by your side to make you happy or be there when you’re sad. Someone who can always make you laugh or make you feel all warm inside,” I say mindlessly, “I bet it’s nice to just love someone and have them love you back…” I trail off, resting my head on the window.
“That’s a nice thought.” I couldn’t tell anything from his response or tone, but didn’t pry any further. We spent the rest of the drive in a comfortable silence. Luke would occasionally sing along to the radio.
“You’re gonna come to one of our rehearsals right?” Luke asks once he pulls out to my house.
“I’ll try to, but I might be busy,” I say truthfully, thinking about the midterms that were coming up. He lets out a disappointed grunt as I step out of the car.
“You better come or else no more searching for the best pancakes!” he bargains. I gasp and stare at Luke through the open window.
“You’re evil Patterson! I’ll really try to come by if I can.” He lets out a sigh before conceding with a nod.
“Have fun on your date,” I say with a fake playful tone. Luke couldn’t see me dig my nails into the palm of my hand.
“I will. I’ll see you later, Y/N!” Luke speeds off. He doesn’t see the dejected girl walking back to her house in his rearview mirror. 
-
“Okay what did I do?” Luke barges through my front door as soon as I opened it. I was bewildered enough as it is to get a random knock on my door on a Friday night, but even more so when Luke angrily walks into my living room with a scowl etched on his face. I thought he would be out with who knows which girl instead of stomping around my living room. 
“What?” I ask, confusion evident in my voice. I stand in front of him with my arms crossed while his hands were clenched at his sides. I try not to let my eyes trail up his tense arms.
“What did I do?” He repeats while shake his head at me with wide eyes. He took a step closer to me.
“Huh?” I repeat his actions back to him, still confused about why he was here.
“What did I do to make you not talk to me? You’ve been avoiding me this whole week!” He exclaims. 
To be fair, I was truthful when I said I was busy with school and my own extracurricular activities. My friends all understood how important my grades and clubs were to me and weren’t mad about me being MIA. However, that didn’t excuse my slight avoidance after our breakfast rendezvous last Saturday when I realized I loved him - a terrible thing to realize.
As I walked back into my house after Luke dropped me off, I figured out that the person I was describing in the car was him. Following that revelation, my heart dropped to my stomach and I hated that. I hated that I felt a good amount of dread that came with the love. Since that morning, his words replay in my head every time I entertained a possibility for us. His refusal to change his ways reminds me of the harsh reality that I will always be just a friend and Luke will always be unavailable. 
So you can understand why I haven’t really wanted to be around the boy too much. As soon as we had our first class together after that Saturday, Luke knew something was wrong, but didn’t think anything of it. If anything, he was too distracted by Sara or whoever else to notice the growing distance between us. Or at least that’s what I thought. 
“Seriously? Nothing?” Luke says with a frustrated tone when I didn’t speak up, “you’ve been giving me the cold shoulder since Saturday. Did I say something at breakfast? Are you mad that I didn’t hang out with you afterwards? You know I had that date!” I couldn’t stop myself from rolling my eyes. He takes another step closer to me.
“See that’s what I mean! Is it Amanda? You know it was only one date. I didn’t really like her either. She was too talk-“
“Please stop talking Luke.” I beg quietly. 
“No. I’m gonna keep talking until you start talking!” He yells at me throwing a hand up in the air. 
“Fine!” Luke eyes widen, not expecting an outburst from me. It was my turn to take a step closer in anger. If he wanted me to talk then that’s I’m gonna talk.
“I do have a problem with you! I have a problem with how you’re always going off with girls, fucking them, leaving them, everything!”
“Okay, but why do you have a problem with that? What I want to do with them is none of your business!” He yells back just as soon as I end my statement. 
“But it is! Because-“ I cut myself off and take a breath. Our chests were heaving at this point, almost touching. I could smell his cologne clearly as I take huge breaths from my nose. It was all too much for me and I take a step back.
“You know what,” I start calmly and shake my head, “you’re right, it isn’t my business. I don’t have a problem with you. I have a problem with me.” I take another step back, creating more distance between us. I start to clench and unclench my fist before I lift my head up and stare at the beautiful boy in front of me. 
“My problem is that I’ve fallen for a guy that won’t like me back. Remember what I talked about in the car after breakfast? I realized that I was describing you and it hurt knowing that you were heading off to another date with another random girl while I was left here all alone. And it will always be like that and I can’t handle it anymore. So yeah it would be nice to love someone and have them love you back, but it absolutely fucking sucks if they don’t love you back.” 
A pained smile stretches across my face as I finally feel the weight be lifted off my shoulders. However, Luke was silent. For the first time he was speechless, mouth open with no words falling out. 
“Listen, I’m sorry I ghosted you when I should’ve at least said something to you. I just need time to get over these stupid feelings and then we can go back to the way things were okay?” 
It killed me to say that but it was better than the silence that followed my confession. He closed his mouth but didn’t speak, didn’t move, didn’t do anything but look at me with a hard stare. Not able to bear another second in the room with him and his silent rejection, I nod my head once and walk back to my bedroom, closing the door behind me. I waited a minute before I heard the front door close and then I started crying, wishing for a knock on the door that never came. 
-
It wasn’t as awkward as I imagined it would be. Sure, we didn’t speak to each other for a few days, but then the small talk started and it sort of got better. He never brought up our confrontation and I didn’t either. I’m not even going to mention the dull ache I get whenever we talk though. Let’s just keep burying that until it doesn’t exist anymore, right?
“Yo, what did you do to Luke?” Alex asks me as he comes up behind me, making me jump. Reggie follows him and wraps an arm around my shoulder. I thought everyone went their separate ways after lunch while I had to grab some last minute things from my locker. 
“What do you mean?” I ask with an uncertain smile. Alex and Reggie share a look behind my shoulders.
“He’s been kinda off the past few days. I don’t know, like he’s not paying attention too much or he’s grumpy,” Alex explains.
Our friends knew something happened between us, but didn’t want to get caught in the middle of it. Instead, they carried on, trying their best to maintain a sense of normalcy amongst the six of us. I was grateful for it because I didn’t want my annoying feelings to create any rifts between any of us. But it seems like Luke was causing some drama on his own. 
“What does that have to do with me?”
“Well, he doesn’t really care about school, our band hasn’t been having problems, and since his parents have been working more, he hasn’t had any problems with them in a while,” Reggie lists off.
“Maybe one of his girls is bothering him again?” I raise an eyebrow at the boys once I close my locker. As much as I would love to stay and chat with them about Luke, I had a test in our next class and would rather concern myself with the test material than a certain sleeveless, beanie loving guitarist.
“That’s the thing!” Reggie exclaims, “we haven’t seen him with another girl in like three weeks!” 
“Maybe he’s just taking a break? Giving his dick a rest, I don’t know,” I shake my head as I still don’t understand the problem or why they think I have something to do with Luke’s odd behavior.
“Y/N, dude, we all know you’ve been avoiding him, but you can’t not see he’s acting different,” Alex says with a knowing yet disappointed tone, “and we think your little silent treatment might be why he’s been off lately.”
I feel a flash of embarrassment when Alex calls me out, but shake it off. If he knows why I’m avoiding him, then he should just leave it at that. I throw my head back with a sigh before looking at the two concerned boys again. 
“I honestly haven’t noticed, but I’ll look out for it next class. And for the record, I don’t think I have anything to do with it,” I conceded, glancing at the clock in the hallway. I had just a couple minutes to get to class. “Okay, I gotta get going.”
“Good luck on your test!” Reggie yells after me as I head down the hallway. I send a thumbs up in the air before rushing into the classroom. 
I search around the room past all the kids trying to get to their seats and see Luke chilling in his usual spot. He was just slowly tapping his pencil against his desk, staring off into space. As I make my way over to my seat next to him, I do notice that he’s a little less…him. Even when he needs to sit still, he’s usually tapping his fingers against the desk or shaking his leg or chewing on his necklace or whatever. He’s always moving as per his lively personality, but right now he couldn’t look any more bored. Maybe Alex and Reggie’s concern wasn’t out of nowhere…
Right as I sat down, our teacher started to hand out our tests. It wasn’t anything too difficult and I thanked my lucky stars that I made time to study for it. My eyes couldn’t help but peer to my side and observe Luke. During these past few weeks, I really haven’t given Luke too much thought. Sure, the first few days were a little difficult, but when everything else started to mount, it was easy to get distracted by it all. Now though, I wondered if Luke had studied a little for this test or was he too busy with other girls things like he usually is. What has Luke been up to lately?
Before I knew it, all tests were passed forward and the bell rang, signaling the end of our period. Luke hasn’t said a word to me once which is a little weird. Like I said, I haven’t completely ghosted him; we’ll share small talk almost every day in our class, but I guess not today. When I start gathering my things, I see Sara approach Luke again. It took actual control to prevent my eyes from rolling in annoyance.
“Hey Luke! I was wondering if you wanted to come over this weekend? We haven’t hung out in a while,” Sara pouts as she rests a hand on his arm.
“Oh, I can’t,” Luke replies smoothly, “I got some band things to take care of. Sorry Sara.” 
I miss Sara’s pout as Luke catches my eye for a second. I couldn’t understand the emotions swirling in his eyes before he turns around and leaves the classroom. That quick exchange was definitely weird because I know for a fact that there’s nothing going on this weekend. Why would he lie and why did he look at me like that?
Alex’s words echo in my head for the next couple of days as I take the time to observe Luke when I could. They weren’t completely going crazy. To anyone else, Luke was the same carefree student who liked to joke around, but I could tell something was off. He would stare off in thought a little more than usual and he wasn’t as clearly involved in conversations. I was also surprised to learn that the guys were right - Luke was turning girls away. Even Julie says he hasn’t been scurrying off after practice to meet up with a girl. Now, I was extremely curious. 
Something was bothering him and I have a feeling that it does concern me. I didn’t notice how often he glances over at me throughout this whole thing until he caught me watching him. We both would look away just as fast, not noticing our mirroring rosy cheeks. I didn’t realize how successful I was at focusing my attention elsewhere until I felt myself remembering what it was like to like Luke.
I’d forgotten how how he’d play with his rings, sliding them up and down his fingers. Or how his eyes would crinkle whenever he laughed or smiled. Or how funny it was when he would roll his eyes at Reggie complaining about how oblivious his crush was to him. Or how he’d rest his head on his fist and pretend to listen to Julie and Flynn whenever they talked about ideas for the band’s look. Or how pretty he was. Or how much I truly cared for his company.
But I’d also forgotten how much it hurts to love him.
“So have you figured out what’s going on with him?” Alex asks while we walk out of our shared class.
“Nope,” I shake my head as my stomach grumbles. Ugh, in-n-out is only one class period away. 
“Neither have we but Julie and I think that if anyone could get him to talk about whatever it is, it’s you.”
“Me? Why me?” I quickly turn my head towards the blonde. I watch him roll his eyes with a sigh.
“C’mon, you’ve been watching him. Brushing off girls, but staring at you? He hasn’t talked to any of us about it, but it’s pretty obvious - he likes you and doesn’t know what to do with these feelings. Don’t fight me on this and go talk to Lukey boy.”
Alex walks away before my shocked reaction wears off. I walk to my last class in sort of a daze. I couldn’t even tell you what I was supposed to learn as I try to process Alex’s statement.
He was crazy. There’s no way that Luke likes me. I mean his fucking reputation doesn’t exactly let him. And we haven’t been having one-on-one time lately so there’s that. While I walk to my car after school ends, I came to the conclusion that Alex had no idea what he was talking about. 
But maybe his idea about talking to Luke would help clear things up. Who am I kidding? I just fucking miss Luke. I want to have my friend back regardless of my feelings. Maybe it isn’t the smartest idea but I just miss him. I knew I would eventually, but I didn’t expect it to hurt this much. As I sat in my car, my mind was made up. 
When I arrived at Julie’s house, confusion swept through me as I didn’t see any of the guys’ cars in the driveway. That’s weird, they usually have rehearsals right after school. Walking up to her front door, I knock and wait for Julie, wondering if I missed some announcement of cancelled practice at lunch. Julie opens the door and was happy to see me on the other side of it.
“Hey girl! What’s up?” Julie tilts her head with a confused smile.
“Hey Jules, I wanted to talk to Luke, but I guess you’re not having practice?” Julie’s confused smile turns into a smirk which puzzles me even more.
“Oh, you wanted to talk to Luke! For why?” She asks in a teasing tone. I roll my eyes at her behavior.
“Because I just wanted to see what’s up with him. Don’t you wanna know why he’s been acting weird?” I ask, trying to fight off the blush as her smirk widens.
“I know why he’s been acting weird. He hasn’t told me, but I know why,” she says knowingly. It didn’t take a genius to figure out what she’s implying. “Anyways, Luke cancelled practice today. Didn’t tell us why, but we all had a bunch of homework anyways so we agreed.”
“I wonder why he cancel-“ I was cut off by my phone ringing. I bring it up and see Luke’s name and photo flash across my screen. I don’t miss Julie’s excited expression as I answer his call.
“Luke?”
“Hey! Where are you? You’re not home!”
“Yeah, I’m not. I’m at Julie’s house because I thought you had rehearsals.”
“Oh so now you have time to go to our rehearsals. The one time you do and I cancel it! Of fucking course that happens,” Luke’s exasperation is evident through our phone call. I don’t bother to tell him that I was there for him.
“Why are you at my house?” 
“Uh, how about we just meet up to continue this conversation? Remember that diner we tried in August, the one with the all day breakfast? It’s right in between yours and Julie’s houses.”
“Yup, the one on Market?”
“Yeah, see you in 10?”
“See you then,” I hang up and look to see Julie wiggling her eyebrows at me.
“About to go on a date now?” She asks, teasing tone still prominent as ever.
“Shut up. I’ll see you later?” I say walking down the pathway. Julie waves goodbye and I hurry back into my car.
My hands start to feel clammy on the wheel as I realize that I’m about to be alone with Luke, something that I haven’t done since I admitted that I loved him. Driving down the busy streets, my mind races with thoughts of what Luke wanted to talk about. I try to expect the worse as I pull into the parking lot of Jim’s Diner, my nerves having a fantastic party in my stomach. Parking next to Luke’s car, I step out and already see him sitting at a booth in front of a window. Taking a deep breath, I walk in to the diner and to his table. As soon as I sit down in front of him, he stops playing with his rings and looks at me.
“Hi”
“Hey,” Luke licks his lips. I could tell that he was nervous to talk to me, which freaked me out because he’s never nervous around any girl. 
A waiter comes up and Luke quickly tell him our orders before I could even speak up. The waiter walks away, leaving us two in silence.
“So, uh, why were you at my house?” I ask slowly. I hide my hands under the table so he wouldn’t see me twiddling my thumbs.
“I wanted to talk to you.”
“About what?” I ask nervously, not prepared for what he has to say. Luke leans forward, placing his arms on the table. He squints at me with a very frustrated expression.
“You know I was happy right? Just doing me, sleeping around, doing whatever the fuck I want. I barely had to work to get girls and it was fun.” 
“Okay, and?” I ask, clearly annoyed. 
“But then you didn’t talk to me and I was mad about that. And then you told me you loved me and I was even more mad. Because now I was confused and didn’t know what to do about one of my best friends loving me. No one has ever loved me before. And then we continued to barely talk and we didn’t have any more breakfast dates. And then I realized that I missed our breakfast dates because I got to spend time with you. And I missed how we would make each other laugh or listen to each other whenever we had to rant about school or parents or whatever the fuck was bothering us and I started to miss how you would smile after you stole my food or try not to laugh whenever I bothered you during class or how you tease me whenever you had the chance. And it isn’t fair that you get to go about your life not knowing how you completely changed mine.”
Oh. Now it’s my turn to be speechless. 
“And now I can’t think of any other girl except you. You and your bright eyes and your food-stealing habits and your smart mouth and your sweet smell and your pretty smile. I can’t think of anyone else to make me happy or be there for me when I’m sad or make me laugh or make me feel all warm inside. And I especially can’t think of doing anything else other than those things for you or think of anyone else doing those things for you.”
He says all this before our food even arrives at the table. As the waiter finally sets all of it down, I remain motionless, unable to do anything after that whole confession. He was breathing heavily through his nose, chewing at his lips.
We never reached for our food. Instead I let my gaze wander from his messy brown hair to his sharp jawline down his neck and to his tense shoulders. His arms bulged as he clenched and unclenched his clasped fists. My eyes flick back up to his eyes that were filled with passion and uncertainty. 
“So what now?” I ask, finally reaching forward for a piece of bacon. He scoffs as I chew with a raised eyebrow.
“What now? I don’t know! I’ve never done this before!” He says leaning back and throwing his arms out in front of him. 
“Well,” I start after swallowing, “after one person confesses their feelings and then the other person confesses their feelings, they usually start dating. Do you want to do that?”
“Yes! That’s what I want. I want this,” he gestures to the table. He sets his hands down and looks at me, blazing hazel eyes set with determination.
“I want you.” 
“Okay,” I say.
“Okay?” I nod my head.
“Listen, I thought it would hurt more to see you go off with all these girls, but it hurt way more to be away from you and your stupid face. I tried to get rid of these feelings, bury them, but I can’t. So I’m not gonna sit here and bullshit you and tell you I don’t want to be with you. But I’m also not gonna bullshit you and tell you that I’m scared.”
“Why are you scared?” He asks quietly.
“It’s pretty obvious, Luke. You’re a fuck boy. Sure, you haven’t looked at another girl in a few weeks, but fuck, who’s to say you won’t in the future or when you’re with me? You said yourself, this reputation has yet to fail you.”
My concerns didn’t come from nowhere. These insecurities have been plaguing me from the moment I realized I liked him. Even if he confessed that he reciprocated my feelings, I was still rightfully hesitant about everything.
“Y/N, I’ve changed.” Luke lets out a frustrated sigh when he sees me raise an eyebrow at him in disbelief. “You’re right - you don’t know and I can’t prove it to you right now, but I swear, I will prove it to you every day if we’re together. You just have to trust that as your boyfriend - no, as your friend, I would never ever hurt you like that. I want you and only you for as long as you’ll have me. Please.”
I take a second to ponder over his words. I can’t lie - it’s a huge boost of confidence to hear Luke almost beg me to go out with him because like he said before, he didn’t need to try hard to get a girl. But his eyes, shining with sincerity and desperation, never looked away from me. 
“Boyfriend, huh?” I ask. Luke slightly nods with his begging eyes.
“Okay, Luke. We’ll try it out. But I want to go slow.” I say firmly leaning forward to gauge his reaction.
“Slow is great, fantastic actually.” he says with relief while leaning forward as well. His grin was so infectious that I couldn’t stop one from growing on my face.
“So Y/N, you want to go on a date? We could go right now and grab breakfast?” Luke gestures to the food already set out in front of us again with a chuckle. I felt my heart stutter and my body start to heat up as I suddenly became the receiving end of his charming smirk and his teasing. He’s never used it on me before, and I’m happy that he hasn’t because I would not have been able to go up against it. I let out a fake gasp at his offer.
“Breakfast? That’s my favorite food! How did you know?” I tease when I reach for my chocolate milk. His eyes soften as he watches me lick my lips from the sweet drink.
“Lucky guess.” 
With that last comment, he finally digs into his food. We both enjoy it in silence, comforted by each other’s presence. There was a warm glow settled over us as we sneak looks and small smiles at each other. It was like we were doing all of this for the first time.
We eventually start talking, catching up over the last few weeks. He actually scolds me for not coming around to rehearsals to which I promised that I would go to the next one. He pumps a fist in the air to celebrate his victory, giving me the perfect opportunity to snatch a small piece of fruit from his plate. Luke doesn’t even bother to protest, opting to lightly kick me under the table instead. I try to kick him back, but he traps my foot between his own. We share a smile when we don’t move our legs and continue to talk about school and whatever else. 
I couldn’t stop stuttering or blushing now that Luke was so obvious about his feelings for me, never missing the opportunity to flirt with me. I literally would’ve never stood a chance if he ever directed his affection at me before. But it was so cute and honestly satisfying to see him falter when I grabbed his hand to hold or flirted back. He still scowled whenever I teased him though, but he would squeeze my hand afterwards and start rubbing his thumb back and forth. It was the best breakfast date I’ve ever had with him. 
When we finish our food, he pays for it (you’ve paid for it 3 times in a row, Luke! - get used to it - Nope, I’m breaking up with you - stop it!) and sets the tip down on the table. I eagerly grab his outstretched hand, our hands fitting together like puzzle pieces. He continues to rub the back of my hand as we step out of the diner. 
“I was actually starving so thank you for that,” I admit, nudging his shoulder. He nudges back with a chuckle.
“So did that count as our first date?” Luke asks as he leans against his car, facing me. I lean against my own, our hands still intertwined.
“I think so,” I nod my head. My heart jumps at the fact that this was actually happening.
“Do I get to kiss you on our first date, or do I have to wait for a second one?” Luke laughs when I scoff at his question. I couldn’t even be bothered to yell at him, just happy that he’s already looking forward to our second date just like I am.
I pull his hand towards me, tugging his body so that he was standing right above me. My gaze that was level to his broad chest moves up to his face, admiring his thoughtful expression. 
“I’ve gotta be honest. I’ve thought about kissing you for a while now.”
“Really?” I ask in surprise, “me too.” He nods as he places his hands on my waist. His hands are warmer than the ones I place on his chest as he brings me in a little closer. “Please, don’t make me wait any longer.”
And Luke did not make me wait.

***
"Strip and get on the bed on all fours. Luke you take her mouth, I don't wanna hear her whining."
You didn't waste any time in starting to unbutton your dress shirt., shifting your eyes from both men in the room. Both of them watching you like their prey as your outer layers started shedding.
"Stop."
Your hands left the buckle of your belt and went straight to your sides, "Did I do something wrong?" you questioned.
"No bunny you didn't do anything wrong," Spencer said looking down at you. He let his hand travel down from the curve of your face to your shoulder, pulling on the strand of your bra until it fell limp to the side.
You could feel the second pair of brown eyes watching the interaction in awe. Both you and Spencer shifted your eyes over to Luke. The growing tent in his pants and heavy breathing giving him away.
"Alvez I think you should do the honors of taking these off. It's only fair since you look at them so often," Spencer spoke looking the other man up and down.
Luke shifted over closer to the both of you, crossing his arms. You bit your lip at the sight of fabric stretching over his biceps.
"Reid are you sure. We don't have to do this if either of you is uncomfortable."
Spencer let out a dry chuckle at his friends words, "I'm far from uncomfortable but our little bunny might be," he said looking back down at you.
The way you kept rubbing your legs together was a tell of your impending arousal.
"She knows her words if she wants to stop. Tell me them again," he said tapping the side of your cheek.
"Yellow for slow down or change what we're doing. Red means stop Sir."
"Good girl bunny," Spencer praised with a genuine smile, "Now are you gonna keep her waiting?"
Luke kneeled on the bed a few inches away from you gazing in your eyes. You nodded with a smile leaning back on your elbows, spreading your legs as in invitation to the bigger male. He spared Spencer one last glance before letting his hands go to the buckle of your belt.
With steady, strong hands he quickly undid it and moved on to the button and zipper. Soon enough he was tugging your pants down your legs. A groan left his lips at the noticeable wet patch on your cotton panties.
You both looked back up and Spencer for directions on what to do next. You figured Luke was waiting out of respect for being invited in. He didn't really seem like the type to wait for what he wanted.
"All fours bunny and keep that mouth open, tongue out." From that position you were level with the bulge heavy insides Lukes pants.
Spencer spoke up but it sounded distant. You could only guess it was from the chair in the corner of the room.
"Don't hold back now Luke, she's all yours."
Your insides churned in anticipation. Veiny hands came into view as Luke started fiddling with his own belt and pants. You looked up at him and noticed how his jaw was clenched. Shallow breathes leaving his chest.
Your eyes widened once he pushed down his briefs. His cock was thick and tan, veins running along the whole thing leading up to the tuft of curly hair at the base.
One of his hands was in your hair while the other was guiding his length to your awaiting mouth. The salty taste of precum hit your tongue making a moan leave your throat. Slowly he guided it in your warm mouth. Teasing and testing strokes as a preparation for what was to come.
From the corner you could hear another zipper coming down and the ruffling of clothes. You ached to look back and see what Spencer was doing but at the same time you didn't wanna miss a minute of the sight above you.
Luke, who was able to see the view of his taller counterpart was ready to give a show. With both hands placed sturdily in your hair he moved his hips with a quicker rhythm in and out of your mouth.
The sound of his curses and groans went straight to your aching cunt. You could feel the arousal dripping down your thighs.
"Fuck," you heard come from the man above you, "taking this dick so well babydoll."
Your eyes practically rolled to the back of your head at the praise. The noises stuck in your throat doing wonders, adding extra stimulation onto the cock deep in your throat.
"God you're so greedy bunny," came from Spencer. His voice got closer until you felt a large warm hand on your behind. You felt the slap before you heard it. Causing another moan to leave your mouth.
You felt a dip in the bed as he settled behind you. A second slap was placed on your other cheek, quickly followed by his hands groping your covered core. His fingers dipped into the sides of your panties tugging them down your thighs.
His slender digits could be felt running through your folds, spreading your arousal. Your hips kept bucking up into his hand as he kept on moving it whenever he got close to where you needed him most.
You knew tears would come to your eyes in no time. Not just from the gagging you were doing but from the constant loss of touch on your needy, weeping pussy.
In a sign of mercy Luke pulled his cock out of your mouth to give you a chance to suck in as much air as you could. A trail of spit from where you lost contact stuck to your chin.
"Did you need something bunny," came from the teasing voice behind you.
You turned your head and looked at him with needy eyes, "Please fuck me Sir."
Luke tugged on your hair, bringing your head to his thigh, "Is my cock not enough for you princessa?" he spoke, accent dripping off his tongue, "you just need every hole filled to be satisfied huh."
Spencer landed another slap to your backside causing you to whimper, "Of course she does. Nothing but a greedy slut whenever cock is around."
Without warning you felt the tip of his cock slide through your folds, coating himself in your essence before sliding in your tight heat. The groan he let out was gutteral. You could feel his grip on your hips tightening as he pulled out and pushed back in.
Luke took this as a sign to slip back in to your mouth. His grip on your hair was anything but soft.
All three of your moans filled the room and probably drifted on to your poor neighbors. The sound of skin slapping and sticky wet sounds echoed off the walls.
"That's it bunny taking both of us so well. Just a little hole for us to fill up," Spencer said drilling into your sopping cunt.
"I'm so close princessa," Luke huffed out, "gonna cum deep down this little throat."
Spencer felt your walls clench at Lukes words and let out a chuckle. With one hand he reached down and spared some attention to your neglected bud. Quick circles caused the heat in your tummy to grow.
Suddenly Lukes motions stopped. Your nose was met with the dark curls as he shot his load in the back of your throat. His groans were like music to your ears. You watched in awe as his chest heaved up and down. The sweat dripping down his neck was visible where his shirt was unbuttoned.
"Swallow it princessa," he said commandingly looking down at you with his lust filled orbs.
There was little hesitation in following his orders. You stuck your tongue out as proof of compliance. He leaned down and met your lips in a rough kiss.
"Such a good little whore for us bunny," Spencer rasped behind you.
You nodded your head, tilting it back for Luke to continue his trail of wet kisses down your neck, "Please wanna cum Sir. Need it please!"
"What do you think Luke? Does she deserve it?"
Both men chuckled at your insistent whines and mewls.
"Go head princessa be a good girl and cum on his cock," Luke whispered before biting on your collar bone.
Your mouth fell open in a silent scream as you felt the waves wash over you. Curses of Spencer's name left your lips as you fell limp onto Lukes lap. The former finishing soon after, ropes of his warm seed filled your insides. He pulled out sitting back on his heels watching the sticky cum drip out of your stretched hole and down your thighs.
The three of you layed on the bed waiting for your breathing to even out. The silence was comfortable until Spencer spoke up, "Lets clean you up bunny." A noise of discontent left your lips as you started to get up.
"I guess I should head out then," Luke said running a hand through his hair.
You and Spencer shared a look before you replied, "I mean you could go..or you could stay. We have a pretty big bathtub. Right Sir," you said looking back up at Spencer.
"Right we do Bunny," he said leading you into the bathroom, "Choice is yours Alvez," he called back with a knowing smirk.

Title: Fake it till you love me
Warnings: Fuff, future smut, abusive exboyfriend, angst, terrible mother
Summary: Y/N comes from a wealthy family and has to return home for a weekend for her little sister's wedding. And Y/N asks Elijah to come with her to pretend to be her fake boyfriend so her mother doesn't try to set her up with her ex. But along the way she finds herself really falling for Elijah, will he return her feelings or break her heart?
Part two
It was a calm late summer afternoon as Y/N sat braiding Hope's hair while Kol was asleep next to them, Hayley was reading when Klaus walked in with a envelope in hand as worry written on his face as all it had was Y/N's name on it with nothing else.
"Y/N, a man came by dropping this off for you." Klaus said as the woman looked up taking it as the others looked over noticing the worry that Klaus was trying to hide. Y/N opened it letting Hope climb up into her lap as the others came over wanting to know what was happening. Y/N pulled out a fancy card that was white trimmed with gold and hand written in cursive.
~You are formerly invited to the wedding of Kris Prescott and Luke Woodward~
The wedding will be taking place on the Prescott Estate
August 4th in Texas
~A plus one for Y/N Prescott~
"It is a wedding invitation to my little sister's wedding." Y/N said as her dear friends noticed the bitterness in her tone. Y/N had never really talked about her family nor her childhood since the four years she knew the Mikaelsons and they never asked.
"Will you be going?" Hope asked Y/N with a smile as the woman smiled back, she didn't want to but if she didn't she'll never hear the end of it from her mother and older sister.
"Yeah hon. I need to call my mother." Y/N tells Hope her Texan accent bleeding though her tone as she kissed the tribrid's head getting up to call her mother leaving the family too look at one another. Later that night Y/N walked into Elijah's study to ask him to be her fake boyfriend as she knew if she Kol, the wildest Mikaelson would tease her and asking Klaus was a every big no so it left Elijah.
"Elijah....are you busy?" Y/N asked Elijah who smiled up at her gently and pulled her into his lap making her blush but was used to it as Elijah was always affectionate with her.
"No darling. What do you need?" Elijah answered pulling her closer enjoying having her close as she blushed harder and Elijah picked up on her racing heart.
"Can you come to Texas with me to pretend to be my boyfriend? I don't want my mother to set me up with anyone."
"Of course, dear. I wouldn't want you uncomfortable while there for your sister's wedding." Elijah tells her brushing her hair from her face making her smile hugging the vampire who hugging her close. Next morning Y/N had packed her bags letting Elijah put them in his Bentley while Hope was asking for a gift which the woman laughed telling her Yes.
"Anything I should know about your family?" Elijah asked Y/N as she gave him directions to her childhood where the wedding was being held. Y/N let out a shaky breath as memories were flooding her mind then looked at Elijah smoothing out her sundress.
"My mother, Loretta Prescott, is a house wife in every sense of the word and tries to play matchmaker which is one of the reasons I asked you to come. My older sister, Amelia Prescott, is a model and Victoria Secret Angel. My little sister, Kris Prescott, is a fashion designer."
"Then lastly my father, Sebastian Prescott or known by family members as Big Daddy, is an Oil Baron so call him Mr. Prescott."
"Your family is worth billions then?"
"Try trillions Eli. Big Daddy is a businessman so I told him you were a C.E.O....oh one more thing Big Daddy isn't much of a talker." Y/N tells Elijah who smiled nodding pulling up to the mansion Y/N called home for most of her life and saw Loretta standing dress in white dress pants and a teal button up with her infamous red heels hair done up with her diamond jewelry on. Big Daddy stood by Loretta in a suit with his dark sunglasses as Y/N recalled her childhood and realized she have never seen her father's eyes.
"About time yall' got here." Loretta said in a huff as Y/N fought the urge to roll her eyes while Big Daddy placed a hand on his wife's shoulder in a silent warning. Before Loretta could say anything about Y/N not bringing anyone when Elijah stepped out of the car, Loretta was shocked while Big Daddy gave a small smile.
"Momma, Big Daddy meet Elijah Mikaelson... my boyfriend." Y/N said smiling as Elijah walked over shaking hands with the Oil Baron then kissed Loretta's hand making the woman blush.
"Oh darn. I told James that you wouldn't be bringing anyone sweetpea." Loretta said dragging Y/N inside as Big Daddy followed after with Elijah. Y/N saw Kris and Amelia talking to James and Luke, Amelia still looked gorgeous with long blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes wearing a little black dress that hugged curves perfectly with red bottom heels on. Kris had gotten a lovely tan, her dark hair cut short, her dark blue eyes twinkling with joy as she was dressed in a skirt and white botton up with powder blue heels.
"Well well the ugly duckling has came home." Amelia said smirking her blue eyes landing on Elijah as Y/N knew where this was going so once Loretta let her go, she moved next to Elijah looping her arm though his.
"Kris is getting married I wouldn't miss it for the world." Y/N said ignoring the hurt the old nickname left on her heart and how James's eyes raked over her body like a piece of meat. Amelia walked up her hips swinging the smirk still on her face close to Elijah as she had never left any man alone that Y/N would date.
"And who is this?" Amelia purred her blue eyes gliting with lust as Elijah smiled gently removing her hands from his chest and wrapped an arm around Y/N's waist pulling her close.
"Elijah Mikaelson, Y/N's boyfriend." Elijah said and Kris smiled walking over to meet the vampire and after meeting family members. Y/N was showing Elijah around when he saw photos of her and Amelia in colorful dresses.
"What's this?"
"Photos of my pageant days with Amelia. I stopped at eleven, don't tell momma this. Big Daddy began to sneak me into his board meetings seeing how I wouldn't do pageants anymore." Y/N answered Elijah seeing him smile as he looked at the photos.
"You are every close to your father."
"Yeah Big Daddy understands me better than momma does." Y/N said softly picking up a photo of her sitting in her father's lap in his office when she was five. Y/N had always been a daddy's girl and still was as Big Daddy was the only one who really called her other than Kris, to see how she was doing.
"This James.... who is he?" Elijah asked hiding the flare of jealousy that filled him seeing a photo of her and James dressed for some kind of dance. Y/N sighed walking over to Elijah after placing the photo down.
"James Maxwell...my ex boyfriend. He comes from a wealthy family also. Momma wants me to get back with him not understanding why I left in the first place." Y/N told Elijah as he gently grabbed her hand rubbing it with his thumb and place a kiss on her knuckles. Dinner rolled around as Y/N lead Elijah to the dining room and James moved to sit next to Y/N but Big Daddy glared stopping the man and Elijah held a chair out for her then sat next to her.
"So Elijah, what do you do?" Amelia asked sitting on the other side of Elijah. Across from them was James, Kris and Luke while Loretta and Big Daddy sat at both ends of the table.
"I run my own business." Elijah said holding Y/N's hand making it every clear to Amelia that he wasn't looking for another while Loretta lit up at what Elijah said as he was looking better and better than James.
"What does your business do?"
"Many things but mostly working out contracts with Presidents of other countries." Elijah answered Loretta with a smile rubbing Y/N's knuckle with his thumb.
"It's nice that Y/N found such a gentleman." Kris said with a smile as Y/N knew her sister was talking about James and Elijah caught it too.
"How did you meet?" Big Daddy asked looking at Elijah though his sunglasses, his voice was low and gruff and Elijah smiled softly remembering how he met Y/N.
"In a small bookshop she was working in. Y/N was climbing a latter and lost her footing and lucky for Y/N, I caught her." Elijah said looking at Y/N with adoration twinkling in his mocha eyes as Y/N blushed lightly looking away. Dinner went smoothly and Big Daddy asked Elijah to share a glass of whiskey in his study something Big Daddy rarely did with his daughter's boyfriends.
"Your father seems to like me." Elijah said later that night as they got ready for bed as Y/N smiled climbing into bed with Elijah following. Y/N felt her heart race even though she was used to sharing a bed with at least one Mikaelson at night but she was never used to waking to find Elijah next next to her.
"He does. Big Daddy rarely shares a drink in his study with any of my boyfriends." Y/N said laying down as Elijah smiled chest filling with pride leaning over kissing Y/N's head.
"Nice to know. Goodnight my dear."
"Night Elijah." Y/N whispered as her heart raced realizing that feelings she buried deeply in her was coming back worst than before. Y/N knew she had to survive this weekend then hide her feelings again but for now she was going to enjoy being held by Elijah.

Ex trouble:
Request: Y/n and Luke are married. Luke's ex Sierra keeps bothering them tho even tho Y/n is pregnant. It goes as far as that they have to call the police.
Requested by: emmyb.allen1 (this is for a request no hate towards Sierra)
A/N: Sure thing! Enjoy!
▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️
Y/n's POV:
The light breeze of summer air was hitting my face. My body sprawled out on the bed.
My back against Luke's warm chest as my eyes fluttered open. A smile on my lips as I felt warmth curled up against my belly.
Little paws pushed against it. Petunia has been always attached to me since the day I moved in with my at the time boyfriend.
Now Husband. But since I got pregnant she was practically guard dog.
I scratched her head smiling before turning around slightly. Luke's eyes shut closed.
His eyelashes laying against his cheeks. His hair messy against the pillows.
My finger went up to poke his cheek with a cheeky smile.
A groan leaving his lips as he opened his ocean blue eyes with a glare.
,,Just cause you are carrying my child doesn't mean you can be cheeky darling." He mumbled making me giggle.
A sudden ping interrupting my planned sassy remark.
His phone lighting up on his nightstand. I huffed annoyed.
Since Luke's ex found out about my pregnancy she apparently noticed how much she still loves him.
Don't understand me wrong. I always had respect for Sierra. But this is going to far.
,,If it's her again I will actually give birth and then jump out if the window." I laughed making Lu chuckle.
,,Don't stress about it love. It's bad for our little bean." He whispered against my lips before pressing a kiss against them.
He sat up grabbing his phone. Before slandering into the bathroom.
I sighed before turning to piggy who was now sitting up next to me.
,,Goodmorning pup!" I whispered smiling.
After we got ready for the day Luke and I decided to go out for lunch with the boys.
We all sat in the back of the little diner.
,,I'll have..the chicken Alfredo with garlic bread..but could I get the garlic bread on a different plate? I don't like my food touching." Michael murmured.
The waited giving him a side eye meaning he will definitely spit in our food after that.
Crystal shaking her head with a smile.
,,Ofcourse..I'll be back with your drinks." She sighed and turned around.
,,Why is she making such a fuss? It's literally her job!" I laughed as Luke wrapped his hand around my shoulder.
,,I don't know! Don't worry Mike." Ashton smiled patting his frowning friends back.
Whose eyes then went wide while looking behind me matching everyone's who was sitting opposite us.
,,Yall look like you saw a ghost!" Luke exclaimed turning around to.
A small curse leaving his lips making me and Calum turn around too.
,,Oh fuck no.." I spat as I watched the one person I least wanted to see walk in the diner.
Sierra. Today is not my day.
,,What the fuck is she doing here?" Kay asked confused as she walked up to our table with an annoying grin.
Luke grabbing my thighs and whispering calm words in my ear.
That didn't help my boiling self tho.
,,What a pleasant surprise! 5sos and their girls! And the one night stand that got pregnant." She teased with an smug pout.
A gasp leaving Crystal's lips.
,,Oh fuck no girl. You are not ruining our day." Luke laughed standing up.
,,Oh Luke..don't get so worked up! We both know she's just a phase." She scoffed.
What the hell. Everyone is looking at us.
,,Sierra I am literally married to him you you blind chicken." I giggled shaking my head.
,,Deaton. Leave before I fucking call the police." Calum threatened also standing up.
Suddenly a glas off tap water being placed infront of me making me realize the waiter is back.
Sierra eyeing the orange juice infront of Luke and the sprite infront of Kay.
Her grabbing them both and with a swing I felt it splash against my shirt and pants and a slap against my cheek.
A yell leaving my body as I looked at her with stunned eyes.
,,Babe! Omg was it something hot? Did it hit your stomach!? Someone call the police right now! " Luke ranted before cupping my face.
His eyes filled with worry and pain.
,,I'm alright lu. It's okay.." I reassured standing up.
,, You guys take a taxi home. We'll handle this from here." Michael spat looking at Sierra.
I nodded standing up with Luke guiding me outside.
I guess this is what it's like being married to a celebrity.
Ex trouble part 2:
Request: Can I Have a Part two where Sierra feels so Guilty
Requested by: emmyb.allen1
A/N:Ofcourse! I tried my best! Hope yall like it was very requested by all of you♥️
THIS IS JUST AN IMAGINE. THE MENTIONED TOPIC DOES NOT APPLY TO SIERRA IN REAL LIFE. WE LOVE HER (no really. I am practically obsessed with her.)
Luke's POV:
It's been a week since the drama all happened.
And I'm still worked up about it. What is the liquid would have been hot? It would have burned her skin.
No matter how much I used to love Sierra. This has gone too far.
The constant stalking, messages, drama.
I'm married for God sakes. The moment she got physical the line got overstepped.
,,What are you still fuming about?" A sweet voice asked making me turn around.
Y/n waddled into the kitchen. Her belly looked like it could explode any second.
Her signature dimply smile flashing across her face.
,,The Sierra thing..." I murmured as she sat down next to me.
Her head falling on my shoulder as her perfume went up my nostrils.
My heart beating faster by the second.
,,Oh Lu. Stop stressing. It turned out fine. She won't bother is anymore." She whispered as I tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.
Management has finally decided to do something about this mess allowing me to be able to never let Sierra near us again.
,,I know...but-"
My sentence got interrupted by the door bell.
Y/n furrowing her eyebrows. ,,Are the boys coming over?" She asked making me shake my head.
,,Mhm maybe it's Crys." She shrugged pressing a kiss to my cheek and standing up.
Running to the door as best she could. A grin on my face. I'm so madly in love.
My day dreaming cut off once I heard a loud ,,LUKE!!" from the hallway.
The Luke that mostly comes when either she is upset with me or she needs me instantly.
My mind running a mile per hour. Did I order something stupid again?
Oh God what did I do?
Jumping up I quickly ran to the door.
My eyes widening as I saw who stood infront of the door.
,,Yeah no. What are you doing here?" I asked crossing my arms, standing next to the shocked Y/n.
Sierras guilty face dropping some more.
I know that face. She really felt bad for something.
,,Luke.. Y/n..I don't know what got into me to be honest. I was hoping I could apologize and maybe explain myself." She muttered.
Her gaze fixed to the ground.
,,There's nothing to ex-" ,,Hush! Sierra this is the last chance. If you try to pull a thing like that again I don't wanna see you again." Y/n, miss sometimes too kind hearted, said.
Sierra had a small smile on her lips before nodding. Us stepping aside and walking into the living room.
,,She better have a good reason." I grumbled making Y/n push me slightly.
,,Negative Nelly.." she spat shaking her allowing me to roll my eyes.
We sat down on the couch. Si taking a huge breath before starting to speak.
,,Firstly..I wanted to say how truly sorry I am. I should not have lashed out on you especially since you are carrying a Child." She said.
Her eyes screaming -I really mean it this time-
A small nod coming from Y/n.
,,And Luke. I really do care about you. I'm sorry for hanging on you even tho you are married." She explained.
My dark eyes turning a shade lighter as I nodded too.
,,The thing is..when I found out your pregnant...my heart shattered." She admitted.
Unexpectedly her eyes filling with fresh tears.
Y/n's face dropping as if she knew something.
,,I-I can't have kids. I found out two months ago." She cried out.
Y/n's eyes filling with tears aswell as I gasped. Even tho she practically turned my life upside down..I was still in love with her a while ago.
,,Oh my..Sierra I'm so sorry!" I exclaimed as Y/n put her hand on hers.
,,I got so jealous and I'm sorry!" She sobbed making our heart shatter.
,,oh shh it's okay..I can't imagine how you feel." Y/n cooed rubbing her shoulder.
My arm coming around Y/n's shoulder as I placed my hand on Sierra's thigh.
Y/n was my everything. My whole world. And her allowing me to have a child is the best gift in the world.
But I can tell the excitement on her face when we talk about welcoming our baby into the world.
She will be an amazing mother and her love for our child is already so huge.
So passionate.
I can't imagine how it is for a woman to find out that she will never be able to have children.
Pulling her into a hug we all stayed close to her.
And in the end...our little girl and Sierra got along so well.

ᴊᴇᴀʟᴏᴜsʏ -ᴘᴜɴᴢ
Words: 805
Not proofread
A/N: this was not requested but i just felt like writing a jealousy one. this is also my first punz one :] hopefully you will like it, and it fits his 'personality' and its not cringe ASF. anyway enjoy :]
summary: punz hears you and quackity *jokingly* flirt with each other while your playing minecraft. (you and punz have secretly been dating for the past 2 months, but you haven't told everyone yet, because you wanted at least a bit of privacy)
a bit of nsfw? not really though.
"wilbur? where do you think the diamonds are?," you ask getting bored of all the stone and dirt you kept on digging up.
"i don't know.. they should be here somewhere,"
"maybe we keep digging?," tommy says suggestively.
"no shit," you reply rolling your eyes.
alex and wilbur chuckle.
"AYOO GUYS"
"what?!"
"I FOUND THEM,"
"DIAMONDS? YOU DID?,"
"I think so! come here, quick!,"
all of their characters run over to where you are jumping up and down, pointing to the blocks behind you. they all stare at you and the blocks behind you. all of a sudden they all start laughing.
"WHAT? >:["
"tho-those aren't di-diamonds.." tommy says between breaths of laughter.
"WHAT? OF COURSE THEY ARE!" you say crossing your arms.
"Th-that's c-coal!" wilbur says laughing out loud.
"wha- oh yeah,"
they all laugh even harder.
"where's punz? wasn't he supposed to teach you?,"
"he's gone to shower," you say quickly trying not to draw attention to the fact that you were at his house playing minecraft on his pc(he let you) while luke was showering.
"oh okay.." alex says. "wait.. HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT HE'S FUCKING DOING- ARE YOU AT HIS HOUSE-,"
"uh.. maybe?,"
"WHY CAN'T YOU COME TO MY DAMN HOUSE WHILE I SHOWER?,"
"i've tried coming to meet you! it's just cause of all my stress from streaming and everything that i can't seem to find the time to come over," as you finished your sentence you heard luke get out of the bathroom, but you thought nothing of it.
"okay how about this. you come meet me in a week and we go out for coffee and talk about all our problems?,"
"sur-" you start as you look up behind you to see luke in just a towel glaring at you. you mute yourself so no one can hear you.
"soo, who's that?" luke says as he comes up to you.
"i- nothing. just alex being his natural flirty self- shit,"
"oh he was flirting with you now?," luke frowns looking at alex's character on his pc screen jumping up and down gently hitting your character.
"i- no," shit y/n. you should have kept your mouth shut. now your so in for it.. you think to yourself looking up innocently at luke.
"don't look all innocent now y/n," he growled at you.
"fine.. he asked me if i wanted to come meet up with him,"
"oh wow, i didn't know that you had plans to go and meet alex. i might as well join you haha."
"i'm being serious,"
"so you don't mind if i do this," he says quickly unmuting yourself and making everyone hear him: "alex," he said sternly.
"oh hi punz! what's up?"
"are any of you streaming?"
"no, why?,"
"right," he takes a deep breath before saying: "so you wouldn't mind if you could stop flirting with my girlfriend for me?"
"i- YOUR DATING-"
"HOW DID WE NOT KNOW THIS?"
"we wanted to keep it private for as long as we could.." you say relaxing your shoulders as if you had just let out a huge breath you didn't know you were holding.
"oh okay. makes sense. sorry punz," alex says.
"mhm. i get it," luke softly growls as he says bye to everyone and leaves the vc and the smp, turning back to face you.
"luke are you mad at me," you ask softly.
"no. no. not at you. just at.." he clenches his jaw not trying to finish his sentence.
"i'm sorry luke. i really am. he and i wanted to go meet up as friends. i didn't think of what you would think about it. i can totally cancel if you want me to-"
"oh no its fine. you can go," he says gritting his teeth.
"you sure?," you ask placing your hand on his cheek making him face you.
"i- i- yeah,"
"your blushing,"
"what- no i'm not!" (spoiler alert: he was, just doesn't like to admit it)
"look, i only want you okay?" you say coming closer to him gazing up at him.
"i know," he says gently kissing you. as the kiss starts getting deeper, yall start moving around the room, stumbling over things and eventually luke pushing you against his wall. as he breaks the kiss to say something, staying so close to you so that your murmuring into each other's mouths he says: "i love you y/n,"
"i love you too luke. only you,"

Fanfic:: What the Water Gave Us
Din can tell something is wrong the minute he walks off the ship. Luke and Grogu meet him on the landing pad as always, but there’s something in the way Luke holds himself, the simple way he says “Hey.”
Din doesn’t run down the gangway, but it’s a near thing. “What’s wrong?”
In which Din and Luke deal with some of Grogu’s more recent trauma, Din gets wet, ripcords are abused, and both of them are trans.
So this was supposed to go up for dinluke week day 6... and then day 7... and now it’s now ^^; BUT I’m still really excited for it and I hope yall are too!
Title inspired by Florence + The Machine’s What the Water Gave Me
AO3 Link
-=-=-=-=-=-
Din can tell something is wrong the minute he walks off the ship. Luke and Grogu meet him on the landing pad as always, but there’s something in the way Luke holds himself, the simple way he says “Hey.”
Din doesn’t run down the gangway, but it’s a near thing. “What’s wrong?”
“I-” Luke sighs. “Nothing’s wrong, I’ll tell you later.”
“Tell me now.”
Luke doesn’t say anything as he passes Grogu to Din, letting Grogu get settled in his arms before continuing, “Grogu is fine, there was just… an incident. He fell into the lake and got… really scared.”
“Oh.” And Din immediately realizes the reason for that. When he had first gotten his quest, his focus had been on finding Grogu a teacher and he hadn’t considered the long-term effects of the events of Trask. Whenever he wakes up from dreams of water pooling up under his helmet, he considers it a good night and waits for sleep to claim him. He hadn’t considered…
But Luke is still talking.
“…so, I feel the easiest way to help him would be to teach him to swim but…” and now Luke looks embarrassed. “I can barely tread water and Grogu is so scared so… would you be able to help?”
“How?”
“I think you being there to show the water is safe would do a lot. Plus, if you knew how to actually swim, that would just seal the deal.”
“I… don’t.” And there are a lot of reasons for that. The main one being the Creed. All those years ago, Xi’an had made a quip about beskar bikinis and… yeah, the crew wrote a lot of terrible jokes. The second reason is that buying specific swimwear for him was never a priority. They had felt like a frivolous expense in the face of the Covert’s financial situation. As the covert’s bounty hunter and main source of income, he had limited all expenses on himself.
“But,” he continues before Luke’s expression can crumble further, “I want to help.”
“Okay that… that’s good. You’re not afraid of water, are you?”
He shakes his head. “I’ll be good.”
“I don’t think it’ll take that much to help him. We could try tomorrow? Forecast says it’ll be hot, we could go to the lake after lessons?”
Din nods. “Sounds like a plan.”
He smiles like the sun. “Great, let me show you to your room.”
Din knows where his room is, he’s been here a couple of times, but he doesn’t comment as he follows the Jedi.
-=-
As he gets ready on the next day, for the first time in maybe ever, Din thinks about what he’s going to wear, which is a futile effort. He doesn’t exactly have… clothes, just beskar and flight suits. He leaves the armor in his room save the helmet. He’s been slowly trying out not wearing his helmet in front of people, but he only lasts maybe a half hour around people and situations he knows, so the helmet stays on.
Midway through zipping up the flight suit, he pauses, considering his compression top. Wearing it wet is never fun, but he also doesn’t need to disappear in his head when he’s trying to help Grogu. He keeps it on, figuring he’ll just endeavor to stay dry above the waist. Most of his weapons he leaves behind as well, except one blaster and a knife. Weapons are still his religion, even if he’s spending most of the day at a lake.
The sounds of Luke and Grogu leaving the Temple filter past his window. It’s a normal routine; Luke and Grogu doing their lessons, leaving Din to putter about for the day, and then they rejoin for the evening. He and Luke agreed he could come for some lessons, but Grogu should learn to control his powers independently of Din being there.
Thankfully, there was enough broken in the temple to leave Din’s hands busy. By the time he’s gotten the basement lights to stop flickering, Luke has lunch packed and Grogu in a sling at his side.
“I figured we could end lessons early to go to the lake,” he explains. Din nods, trying to take in the words and not be distracted by how Luke looks in a birikad.
It’s a longer walk than Din expected to the lake. It’s less than an hour away from the school, but between maneuvering the wild forest and the sun beating down, he’s actually looking forward to going for a dip. He guesses it wouldn’t make sense to have a large body of water near little kids.
When they arrive, Din can’t help but take a moment to admire it. The lake is a dark blue color, nearing green by the rocky shore’s edge, but the sun still makes it sparkle. Low hanging branches edge over the lake, casting shadows in the water. There are some large rocks to the far side as well as other clear pieces of shore.
They settle on a dry part of the shore, putting both picnic basket and Grogu down. The child immediately toddles towards Din, one hand gripping his flight suit, looking warily out at the water. Din leans down to scoop him up.
“It’ll be okay, ad’ika,” he says, “The water can’t hurt you.”
Luke chimes in, “Your dad’s right.”
Grogu doesn’t seem convinced yet.
With lunch set away, Luke pulls off his robes and then his tunic and oh- Din hadn’t been expecting that.
The other man looks up at him, suddenly sheepish. “Sorry, I hope you don’t mind? I’m baking under all those layers.”
Din stumbles through telling him it’s fine, hoping Luke doesn’t realize his gaze is at the twin incision scars on his chest, somehow drawing his eye more than the fractal scars that span the rest of his chest. It’s not a rarity to find others like Din in this wide galaxy, but it’s an unexpected familiarity, especially to find with his son’s teacher.
Luke pauses, still holding his tunic. “Are you okay? I don’t want you getting heatstroke either.”
“I-I’m fine!” he stammers out. Maker, he’s met other trans people before, why does it feel so different with Luke?
“Well, don’t feel obligated to take anything off,” Luke says, folding his robes. He pauses to look Din up and down. “Well, maybe your shoes if you plan on going in.”
Din takes the opportunity to set Grogu back down on the rocks, forcing himself to tear his gaze away. He kneels down to fumble his way through untying his laces.
“So, what is the plan?” he asks, gaze firmly on his boots.
There’s a thump of fabric. “I figured we could start by just getting the two of us in the water, show him it’s safe. Then we’ll just… play it by ear?”
Din looks up once he has his boots off and flight suit pulled up to his knees. Luke looks… nervous? That’s not the word, but there’s something in the expression that Din recognizes as Luke picks up Grogu, speaking softly to him and pointing across the way at the lake. He wants to get this right.
Grogu is still looking at the water hesitantly, big brown eyes threatening to wobble, ears pressed tight against his head. Din walks up and strokes one of them.
“Grogu,” his son picks up his head to look at him, something Din doesn’t think he’ll ever get tired of. “I’m going to go in the water, but I’ll be fine, okay? You can just watch.”
He tilts his head, considering him for a moment and when there’s no resistance, Din walks into the water.
He bites down on the curse threatening to escape when his bare feet touch water. It’s cold, despite the sun beating down. He looks behind to see Grogu staring at him wide eyed.
“I’m fine, ad’ika. See?” He waves his hands in what he hopes is reassuring.
He walks deeper into the lake, water halfway up to his calves before he hears Grogu’s whimpers. He turns, but his foot catches on a rock and suddenly the ground isn’t firm beneath his feet. The world goes sideways as he loses his balance and cold water is pouring through his helmet.
He scrambles up into a seated position, thankful beskar doesn’t rust. His chest feels tight with the compression top soaked though, which he files away to take care of later. He lifts the helmet just enough to spit out the water, to catch his breath. It’s only then does he hear the kid’s cries, Luke’s attempts to settle him.
“Grogu, Grogu, I’m okay, see?” But something tells him Grogu doesn’t care about his words right now. He sighs, soft enough for it not to be picked up by the voice modulator, and gets out of the water. He slogs through the water, happy that his son doesn’t seem to be reacting in any more dramatic way beside crying.
That is, until he reaches shore and the tide comes in with him. He sits none too gently besides Luke and his son. Grogu immediately holds his arms out to him.
Din takes him, only considering for a second before taking off his helmet. His son touches his face none too gently, grabbing and pinching with those tiny nails of his.
“Yes, I’m fine. I’m safe, Grogu,” he says, softly.
He doesn’t rush Grogu, letting him touch his face, feel the breath escaping his lips, touch the wet flight suit. He doesn’t think about Luke being right there, able to see this moment between them, able to see his face.
Grogu settles in his arms, head tucked between his shoulder and chin. Din turns just enough to catch Luke’s eye
“Call it a day?” Din asks, not being able to calm the annoyed feeling in his heart.
Luke shrugs. “We still have lunch.”
They do, so they settle a couple feet farther from the shoreline, Luke offering his robes by way of a blanket. He hands out the food he made for them. Grogu still seems scared for a couple of minutes, but then he’s wolfed down his food and found an insect to follow in and amongst the trees. Din knows he should stop him from then trying to eat the creature, but he doesn’t have the heart. Neither, it seems, does Luke.
The two of them eat in silence, eyes on the still lake or Grogu running around. Din can’t help but berate himself for such a simple slip-up.
He sighs, no longer hungry, as the question that had been on his mind since yesterday bubbles over.
“Did Grogu show… Did you see…?” He doesn’t understand the Force enough to begin to ask the question, but Luke, whether because he’s a Jedi Master or just a good person, seems to understand.
“He… showed me what happened. He was unharmed, but I think he was just… scared.”
“I should have realized he would remember that.”
“You had – have a lot on your plate.”
“But he’s my kid.”
“And I’ve met plenty worse fathers than you,” Luke says with an easy smile that betrays the weight of his words. “But really, you were trying to get him to safety. If we’re going to play a game of what ifs, then I should have gotten to the cruiser faster.”
“You got to us just in time,” Din says, the hint of a question in his tone.
Luke shrugs, “I was too far away. If I was closer, I could have stopped him from experiencing all of that fear and anger.”
Din’s heart clenches, remembering those few days between losing Grogu and getting him back, those sleepless nights, unable to think of anything but the worst possible scenarios.
“Maybe we should stop asking these questions.”
“I agree.”
The conversation dies down after that.
With his heart marginally calmer, Din finds himself better able to appreciate the space around him. The sun’s rays feel like a physical thing against his face. Has he ever had a moment like this? Was this what he was missing when he never took off his helmet. Can he say he missed it when this is the first time that he’s experienced it?
Grogu walks back a little later, dirty with an insect leg poking out between his teeth. Din and Luke share a look before they start packing up.
When they get back to the temple, Din is suddenly made more aware of his wet compression top, clinging to his skin like a vice. He also suddenly doesn’t feel like wearing his flight suit, like a too-small second skin.
Luke seems to notice some of this, because when they get back to the temple, he scuffs his foot on the cobble and asks, “Do you need a change of clothes? We’re not exactly the same… build, but I should have something that fits.”
Din thinks about how long it would take to dry out his clothing, whether he’s even done the laundry yet.
He shrugs. “Sure.”
Luke nods, beckoning him forward to a set of rooms he hasn’t been to before. They’re no bigger than the rest of the temple’s rooms, they honestly might be smaller, but that might be the clutter of droid parts scattered around the floor with every flat surface available covered in objects of strange shapes and yellowing books. It’s not at all what Din expected, but that seems to sum up his entire experience with Luke.
He stands there as Luke pushes aside machinery to open a set of closet doors. He roots around in there before pulling out a couple of black garments.
“These will probably do fine! Just let me know if they don’t.”
Din takes them and thanks him, but he stays where he is, a battle warring in his throat. He’s hyperaware of his chest and while he knows the robes will probably flow well enough to hide, he still feels the need to say something. He knows he doesn’t owe Luke or anyone an explanation, be he wants to.
“I… Back at the lake, I wasn’t staring at you… I mean… I’m trans too.”
“Oh, okay,” his smile is bright enough to fill his chest. “Will you be fine while Grogu and I finish up his lessons?”
Din nods and his heart feels a little more at peace.
The robes are indeed too short, leaving his wrists and ankles completely exposed. He’s not used to the extra layers, how it flows behind him, but the layers help hide his chest, so he’s able to get through the rest of the day.
Any initial discomfort is worth seeing Luke’s face when he comes back in from afternoon lessons. He tries to hide it, but Din spots how he pauses in the doorway, looking straight at Din as he cleans his armor. It only lasts a second before Luke is distracted by Grogu again, so Din files it away for later and goes back to rubbing out the lake smell from his helmet.
-=-
It’s the day before he has to go, but Din feels more restless than normal. Every day since they went to the lake, it’s rained, a downpour that soaked them to the bone if they had to leave the temple for anything.
Din turns to watch Luke and Grogu out the window, meditating in the rain, twin domed force shields above their heads to stay dry. His HUD lights the two of them up in bright reds and yellows as compared to the calm blue of everything else.
He turns back to the lamp he’s been trying to fix for the past hour. He just can’t stop thinking about that day on Trask, how he hadn’t seen the obvious trap, how he’d been unable to rescue his son, how his son still remembers that.
He has to make it right.
When the two come back inside to start their lessons, Din unceremoniously takes Luke by the elbow and brings him into the kitchen. Starts thank Luke, he doesn’t question the sudden detour and just stands there, waiting for Din to put his thoughts into words.
“Can… I borrow Grogu?”
Luke gives him a look. “Of course? He still has time between lessons so, yes?”
“No, I-” Din sighs, “I need both of you… for something.”
Luke tilts his head to the side and Din explains, haltingly, not knowing if this is the right course of action, but it feels necessary. Luke just smiles.
“I think it’s a great idea, and I’d be honored to help.”
They wait until after dinner, when they’ve cleaned up. Grogu just looks at them as the tree of then sit on the couch in the common area. Din’s heart has been jackrabbiting since he and Luke agreed to this, most of his afternoon taken up by what exactly he was going to say, what would happen if it went poorly.
He takes off his helmet, setting it on a side table. Grogu looks up at the movement and is already reaching for him. He can’t help the smile as he lifts him up. He glances over to Luke, who gives him an encouraging nod.
“Grogu?”
He looks into his eyes at that and Din feels his heart break a little more.
“I… I don’t want you to feel bad for being afraid of water. It’s understandable considering… everything. Luke and I will help you be less afraid if… if you want. I should never have put you in danger like that on Trask. I will always prioritize your safety. Ni ceta. Can you forgive me?”
Grogu stares at him with those big brown eyes before reaching for his face. Luke’s ungloved hand comes up and touches his son on the back.
Luke opens his eyes and gives him a smile.
“You were already forgiven.”
Din pulls his son in for a tight hug. If tears form at the corner of his eyes as he thanks Luke for his help, Luke doesn’t say anything.
-=-
The next day was supposed to be Din’s last day, but early that morning, when he wakes up and sees the rain has stopped, he calls Bo-Katan. What he wants to say is that he can come here to collect the damn darksaber because there’s nothing more he wants to do than stay here. He doesn’t say that, but he does tell her he’s staying a few days more. He hangs up on her before she can reach a fever pitch.
At breakfast, he just tells Luke he can stay longer. Then he recommends they try going to the lake again.
The walk to the lake isn’t any more tense, but he can feel Grogu curl up tighter against his chest as trees give way to the lake. The lake is bigger than last time, much of the coast now disappeared under the water.
“Why don’t you go in this time?” Din offers.
Luke smirks at him, “Now are you afraid of water, Mando?”
On instinct, forgetting he’s at a bright lakeside and thinking he’s in the sewers of Nevarro, he punches Luke’s shoulder like he would’ve Paz’s. Luke goes careening to the side, only barely keeping himself on two feet. His expression is shocked and there’s an apology on Din’s tongue until Luke bursts out laughing.
“Maker, if you wanted me in the water that badly, you only had to ask!” Luke says, punching Din back. The flight suit lessens the blow, but Din still feels as knocked over as Luke was.
“S-Sorry,” he manages to get out.
Luke waves him off, still smiling. “If I couldn’t take a punch like that, I’d never survive being Han’s friend. You just surprised me.”
He removes his robes again and Din is thankful he thinks to avert his gaze beforehand.
Luke walks in, hissing at the chill. He only goes up to his ankles, before kneeling down, black pants growing darker by the second as water laps around him.
“See, Grogu? The water’s fine.” Luke splashes his hands gently in the water, creating little ripples.
Din looks down at Grogu, still in his arms. His head is ducked into Din’s shoulder.
Din kneels down so they’re more at eye level.
“Grogu? Look, what’s Master Luke doing?”
The child turns and watches. Luke has the same kind smile on his face the whole time. Grogu watches, ears twitching the whole time.
And then a different expression comes over Luke’s face. He shifts his position, now sitting with legs crossed, his hands held out above the water and eyes closed. Din is just about to ask what he’s doing when the water around him moves and rises.
Individual balls of water lift into the air, surrounding Luke. A couple are as big as Grogu’s head, some are as small as a pebble, a multitude of sizes. Sunlight reflects off their surface so that it looks like crystals. Then they move, gently circling around Luke.
Luke cracks open an eye before smiling. “See, Grogu? Water can be scary, but it can also be beautiful.”
Din can’t get his mouth to work, still trying to put these two images together, of a man with a bright laugh and a decent punch, and this ethereal wonder.
He manages to break his gaze and look at Grogu, who for the first time this whole visit, looks at the lake with awe instead of fear.
-=-
The next time Din is able to make it to Yavin IV, after a long quest to retake a minor city in Mandalore, he’s met with smiling faces at the end of the ramp.
“C’mon!” Luke says with no preamble. “We have something to show you!”
It’s not the first time Luke has led with that. Grogu likes showing his progress and Din is the best audience, being impressed with whatever Grogu has to show.
Instead of the Temple or the usual outside training ground, Luke heads straight for the lake. As he follows, Din can’t help but spot how there’s more of a path worn in through the grass and plants. He can even see straight to the dirt in some areas.
The lake looks the same as ever, clear water, low hanging trees, a rocky coast.
Luke doesn’t bother shucking off his robes, just walks in the water with Grogu still in his arms and kneels down. Luke lowers Grogu down into the water and Din is glad his helmet doesn’t pick up his gasp when Grogu doesn’t fuss. He just stands there, waist deep, looking up to his teacher.
“C’mon, Grogu,” Luke says, smiling, “like we practiced.”
Grogu nods before taking a deep breath and blowing out air before slowing lowering his head into the water. Small bubbles escape the water where his mouth is. It feels like Din’s heart has grown in his chest.
“Good job, Grogu!” Luke exclaims as Grogu stands up straight.
Din rips off his boots before joining the two in the water. Luke picks Grogu back up so he’s not overwhelmed by the waves Din makes. He settles in beside Luke, sides brushing as he takes a knee.
“That was really good, kid!” Din exclaims, picking up his son and holding him tight.
Grogu burbles happily. Luke catches Din’s eye and he can’t help but smile more.
-=-
Trips to the lake become a regular occurrence when Din visits. Yavin IV is temperate, so if the sky is clear and the day warm, the three head out to the edge of the lake. Grogu is happy to chase frogs near the edge, less scared of falling in now, especially with more lessons in blowing bubbles and painstaking lessons in floating.
Din has since picked up swimwear of his own, after he couldn’t get the lake smell out of one of his flight suits. It’s a tank top that still functions as a compression top and board shorts. He still brings his helmet with him, but he finds himself wearing it less and less by the lake, especially when he gets in the water.
It’s… nice. It’s one of the nicest things Din has had in a while. It’s a sanctuary from the stresses and pain of life in the galaxy, something for just the three of them, even if three sometimes becomes four when Artoo gets bored, and sometimes four becomes seven or eight when Luke’s friends make supply runs and then linger after. Even still, Din thinks of that spot as “theirs;” him, Luke, and Grogu.
The thought frightens him sometimes.
What also frightens him his how his heart rate continues to skyrocket when Luke takes off his robes to bask in the sun, this time not because of that twinge of familiarity at seeing the incision scars. His heart also can’t calm down on the day when Luke explains how he feels more attune to the Force when he feels the sun beat down on his bare skin, how it almost feels like home.
Din doesn’t know how to respond, especially when he realizes in some way, he understands, so he can only nod.
-=-
Late one day, when Din is underneath his ship, tightening up a part that got loose the last time he jumped through hyperspace, he hears the familiar pat of feet against the launchpad.
“I was out by the lake late at night,” Luke says.
Din grunts in response.
“It was really beautiful. Felt like there were thousands of lightning bugs out there.”
“I bet it was.”
“I’d like to show it to you… tonight… alone.”
That gets Din to roll out from under the Crest.
“What about Grogu?”
“The Temple has a state-of-the-art security system and Artoo can keep watch.”
“Okay.”
“Okay?”
“Tonight.”
“Yeah, once it gets dark enough.”
And suddenly anticipation fills Din’s stomach for the rest of the evening. He doesn’t know what “dark enough” means, the sun’s barely set by the time he’s done with the Crest and he can see two lighting bugs blinking by the Temple Garden. Luke waits until after dinner and after Grogu is fast asleep to walk Din out, gloved hand in gloved hand, even though they both know the way there. Neither of them makes a move to disentangle themselves.
The lake is both gorgeous and terrifying at night. There are just as many lightning bugs as Luke promised, lighting up the area. Even still, the water is as dark as space, and looks just as infinite.
Din is thankful he kept his helmet on. He’s glad Luke doesn’t comment on it. In fact, Luke doesn’t seem to mind at all.
They only go up to their knees in the dark water, looking out at the dancing light show and just talking. Their hands keep finding each other, after taking off their shoes, after releasing a lighting bug that’s landed on one of them, after righting oneself after nearly slipping.
Din tries not to think about how perfect this feels.
-=-
It’s a couple of days later that they are able to go back to the lake. It’s another washout, but none of them particularly mind. Din finds himself bumping into Luke more and more, the physical contact a welcome novelty.
Neither of them talks about the night at the lake. They don’t have to.
Once the rain stops, they wait a couple of days for the waterline to recede before going back to the lake.
And he has to assume it was because of being cooped up in the temple for a couple of days that causes Luke to ask him, “Have you used some of those tools for… non-bounty hunting purposes?”
Din tilts his head in Luke’s direction and takes longer than necessary to respond. He knows its rude to watch Luke squirm under his gaze, but after a question like that, he has to.
“What do you mean?”
“I just… see that tree branch?”
Din looks in the direction where Luke is pointing and spots a tree hanging over the lake. He nods.
“I bet you could use your ripcord and swing into the lake.”
“Why would I do that?”
“Seems fun, I assume kids who grew up around water would do that. Seems like the kind of thing.”
It does, like when he and the other foundlings would climb the pipes in Nevarro before an adult found them out.
“I don’t want to be a bad influence.”
Luke gives him a look. “Grogu has seen you fly out of the mouth of a greater krayt dragon, which I still need more details on.”
Din snorts, before considering it. All of these days by the lake means he actually is a somewhat passable swimmer. He can’t swim fast, but he can hold his breath and maneuver pretty well.
Plus, the more he thinks about it, the more it does sound like fun.
“Fine.”
“What?”
“I’ll do it.”
“I mean… don’t feel pressured.”
“Nope, I have to now.”
Luke looks at him before cracking into a smile. Din just shakes his head as he divests himself of unnecessary gear. He takes only the gauntlet that contains his ripcord, leaving his helmet and everything else safely on the coast before walking in the direction of the tree.
He climbs through the thrush, glancing over to make sure Luke is still looking at him. Why does he care that Luke’s looking at him?
He has to circle back to find the tree Luke had spotted. He steps around roots poking out through the soil and into a flat rock. The tree itself bends over him, a couple of lower branches nearly skimming the water. He jumps up and grabs into the tree, making sure it can hold his weight and won’t snap when he’s airborne.
It feels solid enough, but he pulls on a few branches before spotting what looks to be the best for the job. He lets out the ripcord, tugging on the branch before disengaging the chord from the spinning mechanism.
He glances to the shore, where Luke and Grogu are watching him. Din shakes his head, why does he feel so nervous for something like this? Then he gives it a test swing, gripping the rope and running to the edge of the stone before jumping off.
He doesn’t let go just let, more focused on making sure the branch doesn’t snap as he swings back and forth. He lands back on the rock, firm ground beneath him.
He looks at the window of clear blue surrounded by leaves and trees. Something flies through his heart like hope, like joy, and he doesn’t think anymore. He grabs the rope, runs forward, swings out and lets go.
A whoop comes unbidden from his chest and soon he’s flying, but unlike those precious moments where he had the jetpack, he can feel the wind flow around all of him. He crests in the air and the weightless feeling lingers for a moment longer before he’s being pulled back down to the lake and is suddenly plunged into cold.
He takes a moment just to let the cold settle over him before searching out the light of the sun and kicking off a rock to shoot upward toward the surface.
He breeches the surface to twinned cheers and rapid beeping. He shakes the water from his eyes, peeling curling hair out of his eyes to see Luke cheering, with Grogu clapping on top of Artoo’s head. He waves, the grin on his face threatening to break.
Maker, he wants to do that again.
But with the buzzing on insects, the gentle lapping of the water around him, and the sun beating down above him, he can’t help but roll onto his back and float, his eyes sliding shut as the sun lands on him with warm pressure.
It only feels like a few seconds have passed when a loud and clear voice rings out tough the clearing.
“Look out below!”
Din opens his eyes and sees Luke, mid arc. He’s stripped off to his basics and he is soaring, arms spread wide, whooping and hollering as he flies.
He crashes into the water mere feet from Din, the waves he creates overturning Din. He tumbles briefly in the water before he’s able to resurface, coughing out a small mouthful of water.
Luke is beside him, golden hair clinging to his forehead, chest glistening, and absolutely beaming.
“Having fun?” Din asks, voice rough from the water swallowed.
“We have to do that again.”
“Where’s Grogu?”
“On the shore, being watched by Artoo.”
Din looks and sure enough, Grogu has attached himself to one of the droid’s legs.
“Race you back?” Luke asks, already turning in the direction of the rock.
“Wait!”
Luke turns back, an eyebrow raised.
Din pushes himself to close the small distance between them. “Can I kiss you?”
Luke smiles. “Yes.”
Din could count on one hand the number of kisses he’s had, and he’s definitely never been kissed while treading water. Their legs bump against each other and Luke has to steady himself on Din’s shoulders. Both of them taste of lake water and it’s hard to get a grip on Luke’s torso, but when Din lets himself forget about how they’re probably sinking a little, and just enjoy the press of their bodies, the glide of their lips, it’s everything he didn’t know he needed.

***
Your mom’s old pale yellow dress didn’t fit as well as you had hoped but you had no other options, formal events were not a common occurrence in your life. The wedges pinched at your toes and the thin dress straps dug into your shoulders but the soft yellow complimented your skin and you liked the ribbon around the waist so it wasn’t a total loss.
You sucked in a sharp breath, adjusting the dress once more in the mirror before grabbing your purse and hustling out the door. 
This wasn’t happening. You weren’t actually doing this. The girl who feels like she has to throw up before public speaking and stutters over small talk and avoids eye contact at all costs is supposed to stand up in front of 100 people and declare her love for the boy getting married to someone else? You felt nauseous thinking about it.
But you couldn’t sit idly by and watch the love of your life say “I do,” to the snobby girl that put gum in your hair in middle school. If there was ever a time that you would stand in front of a crowd voluntarily and speak, it would be now.
The venue was beautiful. The church had vaulted ceilings and large stained glass windows that cast colorful shadows on the hardwood flooring. There were cascading white curtains and pale pink tablecloths with little white doilies. It was pretty but humble and you felt a pang of jealousy in your chest.
Concealing yourself in the crowd wasn’t difficult considering she’d invited the county and all its neighbors. Everyone was in the pews standing and mingling and you noticed the only group sitting quietly was the family of the bride herself, all looking around carefully like the normal folk were unevolved cavemen. They wore coordinating lavender outfits with done up hair and hats with little feathers -- something straight out of a period piece. 
You rolled your eyes at their judgmental nature and apparent superiority complex before your attention was drawn to the boys in the front row talking seriously among themselves, dread written clearly on their faces. 
Calum, Ashton and Michael wore similar black tuxes, looking uncomfortable in the formal getup. You only watched for a few moments before you caught Ashton’s attention. He first looked shocked but his expression quickly became sincere. He gave you an apologetic smile which you returned before heading to the back to avoid any more curious eyes. His family would surely recognize you if they saw you and you didn’t want any extra attention on you until you were subjecting yourself to it. 
As you waited for the ceremony to start, you stared fondly out the window at the snowy trees and calm serenity of nature before allowing yourself to be whisked away in a vivid daydream about what it might be like to tell him how you truly feel. 
You jumped, pulled from your daydream by dark, heavy chords coming from the church organ. You cringed a little as the horribly ill fitting song continued, but readied yourself for the ceremony to begin. 
The silk purple curtains concealed your figure enough in the back of the church and your heart rate began to rise. This was happening. You were about to profess your love to a man who might turn you down in front of everyone and their mother. But it would be worth it. You couldn’t live your whole life wondering “what if?”
You heard a squeak of door hinges from your right and held still. Any sudden movements might give you away. 
A young girl came running through with a wicker basket in hand, poorly distributing rose petals along the aisle. Something caught your eye in the front of the room. 
Luke stepped out, front and center, and straightened his tie. Your breath caught in your throat. He looked just the same as the last time you’d seen him on that warm summer night. You had expected some drastic change, to not even recognize him. But it was Luke. The same one that picked flowers with you at recess and stopped to wait for you whenever you needed to tie your shoe. The same one that was always there to dry your tears and to watch dumb romantic comedies with you without complaining. He stood there quietly, clean shaven and rosy cheeked, the same Luke you knew and loved. 
You pushed away the more upsetting memories, like the one from that warm, sticky night. The image of his tear stained cheeks and pleading eyes. 
Moments later, your eyes were pulled from Luke. Courtney came strutting through the open Mahogany doors, waving like she was fucking Queen Elizabeth.
You rolled your eyes at her bedazzled ball gown and fake pageant smile. She didn’t care about Luke, she cared about image and reputation. Which is why you were really about to piss her off.
You looked back towards Luke and tried to read his expression but it was stoic, unmoved. You wish that was me, don’t you?
Courtney reached Luke and shot him a wide smile, to which he returned. Except Luke's was empty, not sincere. Luke had always thought Courtney was beautiful and smart and made the decision from there that marrying her wouldn’t be so bad. After you had turned him down in the glow of the firelight on that July night. It broke him and you hated yourself every day because of it. You weren’t ready to love him then. But you were most certainly ready now. 
Ready to risk everything for that blue eyed boy. 
The ceremony progressed and the preacher neared the end of the formalities. You felt your time was nearing. Your knees were weak and knocky, your hands shaking. 
The preacher paused, and with his booming voice said “if anyone can show just cause why this couple cannot lawfully be joined together in matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace.” He looked down, preparing to move on and read the next portion, assuming no one would protest. No sane person ever protested. 
Your breath hitched in your throat. It was now or never. If you didn’t find it in you to step forward at this moment, the person you love most in this world might be gone forever. 
The room fell silent and you closed your eyes, pushing the sheer curtain aside and taking a shaky step forward. You heard heads turn and a few audible gasps.
When you opened your eyes, everyone had turned to you. Every familiar face, every friend, every stranger.
You caught Courtney’s eye and she looked as if every fiber of her being was on fire. If someone reached out and touched her in that moment, they’d get a 3rd degree burn. She looked like she was trying to strangle you with her eyes.
You flattened your dress once more and looked up, bracing yourself for the look on Luke’s face. 
He didn’t look angry or upset, just… confused. And surprised.
You took that as a sign to continue. You softly cleared your throat, speaking directly to the man in front of you. “I am not the kind of girl who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion but you are not the kind of boy… who should be marrying the wrong girl.” There were some shocked whispers and appalled gasps but you ignored them.
You walked forward down the aisle to get a clearer look at Luke and stopped at the stairs. You felt like you were alone with him now and it made it easier. “So don’t say yes, let’s run away now. I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door. Don’t wait or say a single vow, you need to hear me out.” You looked at him with pleading eyes and for the first time, his facade fell. You saw the glint of relief in his eyes and the slump of his once tense shoulders. 
Luke looked around once more at all of the people that had gathered there today for him and knew he needed to make a decision. He turned to look at his friends stationed behind him, and to no surprise, their faces were lit up with pure happiness and relief. He couldn’t help but smile back at them. Calum threw him a thumbs up and Michael mouthed “go with her, dumbass.” 
Luke turned back to the audience and spotted his mother in the crowd. He tried to read her expression but when she gave him a soft, curt nod, he knew what he had to do. 
He quickly grabbed Courtney’s hands and your face immediately fell. He was going to choose her after all.
Then, he whispered something you didn’t expect. “I'm sorry, Court. This is a mistake, you don’t love me and I don’t love you — you and I both know that. We can’t do this. I have to go.” He leaned in and kissed her on the cheek quickly as she stood, frozen.
You felt a pang of guilt. But then you remembered that she would get over it and be marrying someone filthy rich by the time she was 25 and didn’t feel so bad anymore.
Luke then turned back to you. He jogged down the steps and pulled you into a hug. It was so silent in the church now, you could hear a pin drop.
He grabbed your shoulders and kissed your forehead. “Let’s run away now, I’ll meet you when I’m out of my tux at the back door.”
You nodded, tears in your eyes, and ran towards the double doors of the church. This was the best decision you had ever made.
You stood in the crisp, chilly air, waiting for Luke to come out of the door on the side of the church. Snow fell on your hair and eyelashes and you reached out a hand to catch some flakes. 
In only three minutes he’d managed to change back into his black skinny jeans, looking like himself again. You could’ve cried at the sight.
“Hi,” you said. What else do you say to someone when you just got them to call off a marriage at the alter?
His smile grew and he ran forward, nearly tackling you in a giant hug. His hands found the back of your head and his eyes searched your face, memorizing every feature, worried that at any second, he might wake up from this amazing dream. “So glad you were around when they said speak now.”

OVA III - Beel's courting
A/N: This chapter is inspired by a headcanon made by @diavolosthots you can find the actual writing here!
This happens during the times where Beel and Ichigo are not together yet. It was the time where Beel finally realized that he genuinely likes Ichigo and wants to pursue her. Of course, it wouldn't be easy since this girl is friendly and kind to everyone, even him. It's to the point that's he's confused if she's flirting or just being nice to him.
Belphie: So you like-like her?
Beel: I do, but I do need some advice from you since she's actually friendly to everyone :(
Belphie: I think it is safe to pursue her since she's a single pringle.
Beel: True...
Belphie: You can do it Beel! I believe in you!
Beel: Thanks a lot, Belphie!
After talking to Belphie, Beel tells the other brothers that he's about to enter that phase, just if anything he said would be harmful and so that they won't disturb him during such phase.
With that, the courting phase begins. From the looks of it, Ichigo notices that Beel always appears in the same places as her. When she gets out from magic class with Solomon, Beel is waiting for her outside her classroom. It was unfortunate that Beel has a different schedule from her despite having the same exact major.
Solomon: Oh, Hey, Beel!
Beel: Hey, Solomon^^
Ichigo: Beel!! [runs to give him a hug]
Beel: O-oh hey ^^
Ichigo: Did you come to get me? Am I invited to your taste trip again?
Beel: Yeah, I actually want to take you out for lunch today. I know you like exploring Devildom's food, right?
Ichigo: I do! It's interesting actually^^
Solomon: Well, I'll get going. Have fun, you two.
Ichigo: Bye, Monsolo!!
As soon as Solomon leaves, the two go to the restaurant that Beel wants to take her to. It's called Devil's chicken. Devil's chicken just opened days ago, and it seems to be a really famous chicken restaurant in devildom.
Ichigo: These are actually good! I like it!
Beel: You do?
Ichigo: Yeah, I'll give it a 5/5!
Beel responds with a smile listening to her remarks. He's already whipped since day one, especially after Ichigo saved him and Luke from Lucifer's wrath. That's where he starts to admire her. Sure, at first he thinks she's just a delicious meal, now she's not only a delicious meal, but she's also something more. Plus, he admits that Ichigo is good-looking, Asmo has stated, but he hasn't paid any attention until they stayed together in his room. That's when he starts getting attracted to her!
Ichigo: Beel?
Beel: Yeah?
Ichigo: You're blanking out... are you okay?
Beel: Yeah. Oh, there's something on your face
Ichigo: Hm? What is it?
Beel: Here, let me help.
Beel helps Ichigo get rid of the chicken crumbs on her face as the pink-haired girl smiles shyly at this action. Ichigo herself does find Beel attractive because who wouldn't be attracted to that handsome face, tall body, and- *cough* friendly nature.
Anyways, the more they got closer, the clingier Beel got. Luckily it doesn't bother Ichigo since she has some space to herself as well. But it gets a bit troublesome when Beel reaches the next phase, the protective phase. How do we explain this? This man has always been protective, but this time it's troublesome because he actually replaces Mammon as Ichigo's study partner and actually the one taking her to school.
Mammon: Wait! Beel! Hold up!! [chasing after them]
Beel: It's okay, Mammon. I'll be the one taking her. Besides, you have a different major, right?
Mammon: Well...yeah, but still! Lucifer might kill me!
Beel: He won't. I'll explain to him. Don't worry!
Mammon: Alright then... be careful, human!
Ichigo: Don't worry! Beel is a good protector~
Mammon: Shut it! I'm literally your first!
Ichigo: Yeah, yeah~
Another time, Beel actually hangs out inside Ichigo's room, more often confusing everyone. Not only that, they all get glares and growls from this man just because they're entering Ichigo's room except for Haruka since it's her room too. The first victim is Asmo since he wants Ichigo to model for him for another clothing line he's doing, but as soon as he opens the door....that man literally glares at him.
Asmo: [opens the door unannounced] Bestie~! Let's go! I need you for-
Beel: [glaring at Asmo]
Asmo: What's wrong?
Beel: Get out.
Asmo: Why should I?! Plus, Ichigo has promised that she'll model for me!
Beel: Get. Out!
Asmo:... oh my goodness! Are you in that phase?!
Beel: Asmo, please don't make me repeat it!
Asmo: Alright, okay! Understandable! Good luck, Beel!
The door slams close as the girl beside him glances at Beel confusedly.
Ichigo: What's wrong?
Beel: It's nothing. I'm just in a terrible mood...that's all
Ichigo: Oh, do you want to do something to cheer you up?
Beel: Having you near me is enough actually^^
Ichigo blushes a little by that statement, but she doesn't say a thing and just snuggles into Beel's hold once again. Yes, they're actually just laying down on her bed with a movie playing in front of them.
Another time, Satan wants to return a book to Ichigo because they've been exchanging them a lot. Once he opens the door, he finds Beel glaring at him. Satan, being the avatar of wrath, is clearly offended.
Satan: What?! Can I not return my book?!
Beel: Then make it quick.
Satan: What?!
Beel: Just put it there, and go!
Satan: excuse me?! Okay, first of all, you piece of sht, you've monopolizing her! I can't even exchange books freely with her because as soon as I did that, you dragged her away into what?! Some unimportant bullsht like this!
Beel: Satan, please don't-
Satan: And you know what?! Just because you're pursuing her doesn't give you the right to be an asshole!
Ichigo: Sa-Satan...calm down...it's okay....just put the book there...
Satan: Shut it, human! This is none of your business!
And that does it, f in the chatroom for Satan's cheek because Beel literally just punched him there.
Satan: Did you just punched me?! Oh! So that's how it is, huh?! Let's do this then! [demon form mode on]
Ichigo: Guys...there's no need to fight.....
Beel: Let's go then- [completely ignoring Ichigo's words]
Ichigo: Beel, get back here! The movie is still going!
Beel: But-
Ichigo: Please? [puppy eyes]
Beel instantly went soft and did what Ichigo told him. Satan rolls his eyes and places the book on Ichigo's table, and gets out of there. The next victim is Mammon, who walks in unannounced. Oh, boy, that's just worse.
Mammon: Hey, human! Guess what!
Beel: [glaring at him]
Mammon: What?!
Beel: [still doing that]
Ichigo: [points at the door awkwardly]
Mammon: Right...that horrible phase of courting....dang it! [exits the door]
Once Mammon exits the door, he sees Asmo and Satan giving him the "I told you so" look. It's not like he didn't believe them, but it's Beel! He's the kindest demon of them all. How could he scold his own siblings?
Satan: First of all, he did. Didn't you hear us shouting there?!
Mammon: You probably did something fatal to him!
Satan: I was just returning a book! How is that fatal?!
Asmo: And Ichigo has promised to model for me today! Now I have to postpone every single set in existence!
Satan: I'll just do this reasonably. Who here, when they have a crush on someone, would go overprotective?
Mammon: [is silent]
Asmo: Mammon, don't play this game with me. You are too protective for your own good!
Mammon: Fine... [raises his hand]
Satan: So am I, and I'm well aware of that [putting his hand up]
Asmo: I'm guessing Levi, Lucifer and Belphie is also part of that. I'm more on the flirty side, you know~
Satan: We know-
As the three of them discuss this, Haruka sees them, and she asks them what's going on out of curiosity.
Satan: [sigh] That friend of yours is stuck in that room with Beel! He won't even let us in, look! He even punched me!
Haruka: Perhaps you did something incredibly wrong?
Satan: How is returning my book wrong?!
Haruka: Why are you shouting at me?!
Satan: Because I'm still pissed?!
Asmo: Why are you guys getting loud?!
Satan and Haruka: SHUT IT!
Suddenly they hear Levi's door slam open with an angry avatar of envy right there.
Levi: What's with yall?! Why are you so loud in the middle of the night?!
Satan: None of your business, you, snake of a demon!
Levi: Okay...?
Asmo: [sigh] Beel has been scolding us for no reason and has been overly protective of Ichigo. When I say over, I mean OVERLY and UNREASONABLE!
Levi: I'm sure something you guys did may harm that girl. It ain't that big of a deal.
Asmo: It does! It does to my career!
Satan: ...it's not a big deal, but it still pisses me off because he dares to act like an asshole just because he likes someone.
Levi: Wait...
Satan: What?
Levi: BEEL LIKES ICHIGO?!
Mammon: You haven't noticed?!
Levi:...no?
Mammon: Do his acts not reminded you of every single romance show you watched?!
Levi: Sort- OMLD!
Another door was opened by an annoyed Lucifer, shouting at them to shut up because their loudness gave him a migraine.
Lucifer: Can you all keep it down?!
Satan: Well, blame your younger brother then!
Lucifer: ???
Belphie: zzz.....Beel is in the courting phase....zzz...
Lucifer facepalms at this, but it's best not to disturb him since Beel is on his courting phase. It might create more problems, so Lucifer doesn't bother confronting that gluttony of a demon and just goes back to his office.
Haruka: Are you sure he literally did not let anyone in?
Asmo: Solomon once got smacked by a pillow when he was trying to return something.
Haruka: Really?
Asmo: Yeah, I'd probably justify it if it's out of shock. But nope, Beel actually goes to that portal and Smacks Solomon's head as soon as it pops up.
Haruka: Wow, he's not only protective but violent as well?
Satan: Yes, yes he is [sigh]
Without hesitation, Haruka goes to her room. Of course, the brothers try to stop her out of concern, but Haruka doesn't listen to them because it's her room too.
Haruka: [knocking on the door] Ichigo, you there?
Ichigo: Yep! Right here! Beel is with me too!
Haruka: Can I come in?
Haruka waits for the answer until she hears the door unlock and Beel's voice answering her.
Beel: Yes, you can.
Haruka: Oh, Thank God- [entering the room] oh! You guys are watching a movie?
Beel: Yeah!
Ichigo: Do you want to join us?
Haruka : If Beel allows me^^
Beel was a bit hesitant about this idea, but he lets her watch the movie with them. Meanwhile, in Lucifer's office, the rest of the brothers (namely Mammon, Satan, and Asmo) complain about Beel's attitude causing the eldest to slam his desk to shut them up.
Lucifer: Then don't disturb him!
Satan: What?! Okay, first off, just because you're pursuing someone doesn't mean you should be an asshole to others!
Lucifer: Don't play this game with me, Satan. You know well that this phase isn't something he can't control!
Satan: Oh? So we're talking self-control, huh?! How about you control that pride of yours, huh?!
Asmo and Mammon gasp at Satan's comment because, oh wow, this is getting personal. Lucifer glares at his brother/son while Satan looks as smug as ever.
Lucifer: Mammon, Asmo, take him out of my office.
Mammon: Will do-
Asmo: Okay-
The two brothers dragged Satan away from the office, leaving Lucifer sighing and thinks he might need something to relieve his stress.
About the phase, there's something odd about it. Because Beel surprisingly allows the angels to meet Ichigo! The target of his pursue! One time, Simeon and Luke both visit because Simeon needs to meet Haruka and Luke wants to meet Ichigo to share food together.
Beel: Oh well, Haruka is in her room with Ichigo.
Luke: Ooh! Is she busy?
Beel: Not really^^ [sniffs the air] Oh, those smell good-
Luke: No! [puts the basket away] These are for Ichigo! >:(
Beel: Alright, alright^^ [pats Luke]
The other brothers witnessing this are confused. Why is Beel allowing the angels in?!
Satan: Are you for real?!
Asmo: I'm so confused-
Mammon: He let them in, and he's friendly with them?!
Satan: That doesn't make sense! We're all men, and we can't enter her room yet when it's Simeon and Luke they can?!
Asmo: That's so unfair!
As Beel takes them into the room, the chaotic trio (yes, Satan is now as chaotic due to his rage) chases after him. The three of them basically trying to enter.
Satan: Beel! Open up! This doesn't make any sense! You're allowing them in, but we can't?!
Asmo: Bestie, Ichigo? Can I come in? I won't do much. Cross my heart!
Mammon: Heh! Courting phase, my ass! You're just monopolizing her for your own benefit!
Haruka, who is also inside, is concerned because THEIR DOOR IS ABOUT TO BREAK FOR THE NTH TIME!
Haruka: That door is going to break! We need someone to stop it
Simeon: ... I didn't know your phase would go this bad, Beel...
Beel: I told them I'd be in my courting phase, and I even apologized beforehand for my actions, but here we are...
Ichigo: You're in a what-
Luke: What even is going on? What phase? Why am I here?
Beel: No-nothing! I'm just-
Haruka: [sigh] Whatever, we need someone to prevent the door from breaking apart. The last time that broke was because SOMEONE is too SENSITIVE of his FOOD!
Beel: Can we stop talking about that... it's been months!
Haruka: Just stop that! I don't want my door breaking out again!
Beel: Fine-
Ichigo: Wait, no-
Haruka: ??? Our door is going to break, and you still hesitate?!
Ichigo: I know what to do- [calls Lucifer]
With that, Ichigo calls Lucifer to help them with the door. Lucifer sighs for the nth time. How many times does he need to deal with this?!
Lucifer: For the last time! STOP BOTHERING HIM!
Satan: It isn't fair! He even lets Simeon and Luke in!
Lucifer: They're angels-
Satan: Yeah? Tell that to Solomon, who got smack by him because he's trying to return something.
Lucifer: Solomon is suspicious, and I'm sort of proud he did that. Now get off the door before I use physical force on you.
Asmo: But-
Lucifer: NOW!
Asmo and Mammon back away while Satan scoffs and just leans on the door. We have no idea why he's so persistent. Either he's into one of the girls, or he just wants to piss Lucifer off.
Lucifer: [sigh] Fine, physical force it is. [drags Satan by force]
Satan: What the?! Let go! Hey! LET GO!!
Lucifer: I TOLD YOU TO BACK AWAY BUT YOU DIDN'T!
Satan: This is none of your business!
Lucifer: Clearly is, Beel's my brother, and obviously, our honored guest needs my help.
Satan: Just let go of me, you prideful prick!
Back inside, the rest are listening to the chaos out there. They did hear Lucifer scolding them but finally, it's silent.
Haruka: Oh God, finally!
Beel: Finally, indeed...
Ichigo: Can someone just tell me what's going on?!
Beel: I can't.... not now, at least...
Ichigo: Why not?! Beel, I don't know how the demon system works, sure, but you have to be honest with me!
Beel: If I tell you.... it would just fail. Can you please trust me on this? This is not a bad thing, okay...
Ichigo: Not a bad thing?! You're literally keeping me away from your brothers! Are you sure this isn't a bad thing?!
Luke: ?? Why are they fighting??
Simeon: I'm not sure.... let's just leave them...
Haruka: I think that's a good idea... sure, let's do that...
Days have passed, and Ichigo is still a bit salty about this. Because clearly, Beel has gone a bit overprotective for his own good. Even when she's hanging out with Belphie, that man would literally growl at his own twin. I repeat, his OWN TWIN BROTHER! Even the youngest groans in frustration hearing him.
Belphie: Beel! This is my room! Come on!
Beel: Fine....just don't come near her. [actually keeps Ichigo close]
Belphie: I won't! Chill out, twin bro!
Beel: Okay...
Ichigo: What's happening? Why are you still like this?!
Beel:...
Belphie: He's in-
Beel: [glares at Belphie]
Belphie: Well, alright then- :))
The last case is when Lucifer calls Ichigo into his office. Beel is hesitant to let her leave, but this is Lucifer, so he has to. Once she's there, it turns out that Lucifer found out about Beel's actions and asked about them.
Lucifer: So, I heard Beel is on another phase, is he?
Ichigo: A phase? What phase?
Lucifer: A phase where he turns into an overprotective demon.
Ichigo: That's true... I'm not sure why, though.
Lucifer: Of course not. You're not a demon, Ichigo. You have 0 idea how the system works.
Ichigo: True...
Lucifer: He's actually on his courting phase.
Ichigo: Courting phase?
Lucifer: Yes, just like in the human world. He's courting you.
Ichigo: ...what?!
Lucifer: I'm not surprised. Honestly, he's already whipped. But here's the issue with that behavior. He'll most likely abandon his tasks for you or the other way around, pulling you away from your tasks. Now we don't want that don't we?
Ichigo: Certainly not, sir-
Lucifer: Indeed. I'm not sure when it'll end, but you need to catch up on your tasks and your report soon once that phase ends.
Ichigo: Of course
Jokes on you all, there's more. Because that one time, Ichigo, Haruka, and Levi are watching TSL. Levi even invited Simeon and Solomon to watch with them. Ichigo is so engorged in that movie that she didn't realize Beel has joined them.
Simeon: Oh hey, Beel! You're here to join us?
Beel: Yep^^
Levi: Probably here for the snack. Here, have them. [gives Beel popcorns]
Beel: Thanks a lot, Levi!
The movie went on as the TSL fans (Levi and Solomon) focused on the film. Haruka and Ichigo are not big fans, but they must admit it's a good movie. Suddenly, Ichigo feels a head on her shoulder. She turns her head to the right and finds Beel leaning on her shoulder. He's even nuzzling on her neck.
Ichigo: Beel, that tickles- [tries not to laugh]
Beel: Oh...can I still lean on you?
Ichigo: Sure, that's okay^^
Beel: Thanks, you're really cozy [gives her a slight ruffle on her hair]
Ichigo: Hey! You're going to ruin it!
Beel: No, I didn't!
The others stare at them, yes, even Levi because these two are kinda loud. Levi rolls his eyes and scolds them for talking during a movie.
Levi: Can you two normies take the flirting somewhere else?!
Beel:... :(
Ichigo: Sorry Levi- ;-;
Haruka: Don't mind them, Levi. We can still watch the movie.
Levi: Fine...
Solomon holds down his laughter because he can clearly see these two are pinning. The way Beel clings to her and how Ichigo reacts to it, that's quite obvious to this sorcerer. Haruka also notices, which is why she justifies their action. They're in love; let them be!
Now back to the movie, they all watch it silently this time, but because of how late they're watching, Ichigo turns sleepy and accidentally sleeps on the couch. Everyone looks back and sees the pink-haired girl asleep with a blanket on top of her, hugging her water bottle. Levi and Beel both went soft on her, plus knowing how many tasks Lucifer has given her, yeah, no wonder she's tired.
Haruka: Beel, can you get her into our room?
Beel: Of course^^
Haruka: I feel bad that she's sleeping on the sofa like this...
Beel: Yeah...
With that, Beel carries Ichigo back to Haruka's and Ichigo's room. Once they're gone, Solomon, Levi, and Haruka sigh while Simeon is just there staring at them confusedly.
Solomon: Those two are clearly in love!
Haruka: I know, right?! I can see it!
Levi: Beel be acting as the male lead of some shoujo manga or something-
Simeon: He reminds me of a book character, such a sweetheart^^
Haruka: I agree entirely. Hope they'll get together soon. They're just adorable together~
Levi: This normie talk makes me wanna puke!
Solomon: There's a toilet. Use it. [deadpan]
Levi: Shut it!
Weeks later, the courting phase has died down, and Beel finally musters his courage to tell her his feelings. He looks for her everywhere and finally finds her in the kitchen making instant noodles in the middle of the afternoon since it's Sunday and there's no food around.
Ichigo: Oh! Hey, Beel!
Beel: Hi [awkwardly]
Ichigo: What's up? Hungry by chance?
The orange-haired man nod as he goes to the fridge to get some snacks. Perhaps an ice cream Mammon bought for him when he went grocery shopping. Once he gets his snack, Ichigo is also finished with her instant noodle. The two finally sit together in silence, yet it's sort of awkward because Beel keeps on fidgeting.
Ichigo: Beel, what's wrong?
Beel: I'm fine... the noodles smell good, by the way
Ichigo: I present to you, Indomie! It's a human-world instant noodle. Do you want some?
Beel: If you don't mind...
Ichigo: Of course not, let me get a plate for you- [goes to the pantry to get one]
Beel: Wait!
Ichigo: Hm?
Beel: I have to tell you something...
Ichigo: Oh? What is it [going back to her chair]
Beel: I like you.
Ichigo: I know, we're friends. We're literally close!
Beel: Friends don't kiss...don't they?
Ichigo: They can if you live in France...I don't know how devildom works, though...
Beel: Ichigo, I like you, as a lover-
Ichigo: A-A lover?!
Beel: Please tell me you reciprocate my feelings.... you do, right?
Ichigo: I do... but I'm not ready for a relationship... is it okay if we take this slow?
Beel: I'm totally okay with that. I just need to let it out since my courting phase has died down.
Ichigo: Well, that's true. That was a wild ride- [laughs slightly]
Beel: It is...
Ichigo: Have you apologized to them?
Beel: I do...Satan smacked me with his thick novel for it, though.
Ichigo: Really?! Where did he hit you?! Is it painful?!
Beel: Quite painful, but I'm fine now. He hit me around this area, I think... [points to that area]
Suddenly Beel feels Ichigo's fingers go through that area, rubbing it to soothe the pain.
Ichigo: I can still feel the bump in there. I think it's not fully healed.
Beel: Really?
Ichigo: Yeah... you poor thing :(
Beel: I'm okay, really
Ichigo: Still, I was the cause of all your conflicts with all your brothers-
Beel: Hey, hey, don't blame yourself for it! It's not your fault!
Ichigo still feels guilty, causing Beel to sigh and pulls her into his lap, earning him a surprised yelp from the pink-hair girl. Beel looks up to her as Ichigo instinctively wraps her arms around his neck to keep her position.
Beel: It's not your fault, okay. Every demon experiences this. It just differs between demons. We do get protective of the beings that we love. Some are overly protective like me...some do it more subtlety, but everyone is different.
Ichigo: So it's just your way of courting me?
Beel: It is. If anything, I'm sorry. You're probably overwhelmed by it...
Ichigo: It's okay, and I'm sorry for snapping at you that one time. Plus, if that didn't happen, we won't be here, don't we?
Beel: True, very true, and I'm totally okay with that. You have no idea what's going on.
Ichigo smiles sweetly at the man beneath her, and he returns it. Until they hear footsteps coming to the kitchen. The two of them stare at the intruder, and it turns out to be Satan, about to cook some lunch for everyone.
Satan: What the fck-
Ichigo: I can explain!
Satan: Please do! Because I'm sure such affections can be done in the bedroom!
Ichigo rolls her eyes and gets off Beel to finish her indomie while Beel just throws the ice cream package on the trash can. Well, that's an awkward ending, but that's pretty much how Beel courts Ichigo, and with her, they create a beautiful relationship together~
