Logan was no stranger to the feeling of restlessness.
For him, it was around every corner; impossible to get away from. Even now, having just returned from the latest mission Charles had sent him on, he couldnât help but feel like a caged animal, desperate to get out.
He gritted his teeth, slamming the door open to enter his room before he unzipped his suit and took it off, tossing it to the corner of the room. After putting his jeans and white shirt on, he ran a hand through his hair and made his way downstairs to the kitchen. Scott and Jean were already there, perched on the stools while Storm sat on the kitchen island, busy with a file. Rogue was rummaging through the fridge and Bobby was making a sandwich on the counter, still in his suit.
âDo we still not have beer in this place?â Logan asked to no one in particular and Storm looked over her shoulder.
âThis place hasnât stopped being a school since the last time you asked, so no.â
âGreat,â he murmured. âSoda it is.â
âItâll be good for your health,â Rogue said with a grin, then tossed him a bottle which he caught mid-air. He extended his arm in Bobbyâs direction without a word and Bobby touched the bottle, making it ice cold.
âThanks,â he grumbled and pulled himself a seat.
âWhy are you in a bad mood?â Storm asked with a curious look in her eyes. âThe mission was a success.â
âIs it because that guy almost stabbed you?â Bobby asked, making him frown.
âHe didnât almost stab me,â Logan said as Rogue closed the fridge, nibbling on a slice of pizza.
âWhen people stab you, do you get annoyed?â Bobby asked and Logan raised his brows.
âMore annoyed than right now? Nah, itâs about the same.â
âTo repeat, why are you soââ Jean started but stopped talking mid-sentence, a smile pulling at her lips. âAh. I see.â
âWhat?â
âWe were supposed to come back from this mission around afternoon,â she said. âAnd itâs Monday.â
Shit.
âJean, stay out of my head.â
Jean grinned at him. âOh Iâm not in your head. Donât need to be.â
Scott looked between them. âIs this about Theoâs mom?â
The impact of the simple question was almost instant on the small crowd in the kitchen. Storm immediately put the file in her lap aside to look at him, Bobby stopped making his sandwich and looked up from the jar of peanut butter he had stuck the knife in, and Rogueâs jaw dropped.
Great.
âWait, seriously?â Bobby asked. âYou and herââ
âThereâs nothing,â Logan cut him off, forcing himself not to let his thoughts drift to her. âScott has no idea what heâs talking about as usual.â
âYouâre just pissed off because youâll have to wait until Friday to see her again.â
Logan scoffed. âThat has nothing to do with the situation.â
âI think you two would make a cute couple,â Storm said and Jean nodded.
âOh absolutely.â
âStop it, both of you,â Logan said with a frown. âAnd for your information, I could see her whenever I want.â
âI donât think theyâd make a good couple to be honest,â Bobby interfered, âI mean donât get me wrong but youâreâŠâ he motioned at him, making Logan raise his brows. âYou.â
âNothing gets past your observation skills, does it?â Logan deadpanned while Rogue suppressed a laugh and took another bite of her pizza.
âOpposites attract is definitely a thing.â
Logan opened his mouth to retort, but was instantly distracted when he heard familiar footsteps coming closer to the kitchen, making him look over his shoulder. It wasnât long until Theo appeared at the door in his pajamas, making Rogue let out an âaw!â.
âHi Theo.â
âHi Miss Rogue!â Theo gave them a happy smile. âAnd Mr. Logan and Miss Storm and Mr. Cyclops and Miss Jean and Mr. Ice Man!â
Even Logan had to admit, the kid was adorable. Theo pushed his glasses up, blinking up at them while holding a huge tin container to his chest as the small crowd in the kitchen greeted him back, making his smile bigger.
âHi bub,â Logan said and Theo waved at him with one hand while still clutching to the tin with the other.
âWhat are you doing up at this hour Theo?â Storm asked and Theo looked down at the tin container, then up at them again.
âUmââ he said. âDo you know my friend Ralph?â
Bobby tilted his head. âThe fish guy?â
âYeah!â Theo nodded fervently before pushing his glasses up again. âSo he told me his mom never baked him cookies, andâI didnât know moms didnât bake cookies because mine does whenever I feel bad, so I told my mom about that and umâŠyesterday she baked cookies for me to bring here,â he said, pressing his index finger on the tin as if to emphasize his point. âEveryone had one but you werenât around, Professor X said you were busy, and I stayed up late so that you could have some cookies as well.â
She had baked cookies.
For the whole school.
Logan had to remind himself it was the middle of the night so he couldnât in fact go all the way to her apartment to see her and kiss her andâ
Focus.
He had to focus.
But for fuckâs sake, it was almost agonizing at this point. She was actually, genuinely nice, as if it wasnât enough that he couldnât stop thinking about how beautiful she was, how sweet she smelled, and just how much he wanted toâ
Not going there, he forced himself to think. Focus.
Theo made his way to the kitchen island and stood up on his tiptoes to place the tin on the island, making Jean press a hand on her chest and Storm smile softly. Scott ruffled his hair, making him smile up at him.
âThank you, Theo,â Jean said. âPlease tell your mom we thank her as well.â
âOf course!â Theo said, his voice cheerful. âGood night!â
âGood night bub.â
âGood night Theo!â
âIâm so going to babysit when you two get together,â Rogue said through her teeth as if she was hanging by a thread while Bobby rushed to the container to open it the moment Theo left the kitchen. âI swear to God, Loganââ
âNo, I agree with Bobby,â Scott said. âSheâs too nice for him.â
Bobby pointed at Scott with the cookie he was holding while Logan flipped him and Storm grabbed two cookies, tossed one to Rogue and turned to Jean.
âIâll fill Charles in about the mission, are you coming?â
âSure,â she said and grabbed a cookie as well. âIâll see you guys later.â
With that they both walked out of the kitchen, Storm talking about what an adorable kid Theo was before Bobby popped the cookie into his mouth, then let out a moan.
âJesus this is too good!â he said. âNo Iâm serious Logan, sheâs like actually pretty and nice and bakes cookies. When was the last time you did anything nice for us?â
âI saved your life like half an hour ago, dipshit,â Logan pointed out, making Rogue laugh. âAnd every word out of your mouth makes me think I shouldâve sat that one out.â
Scott chuckled and took out a cookie out of the container, then nodded at Logan.
âDo you want to have one or do you want to go ring shoppingââ he started but he was cut off when one of Bobbyâs friends, Caleb, if Logan wasnât mistaken, entered the kitchen.
âStorm said there were cookies?â
âOver there.â Bobby motioned at the kitchen island. âTheoâs mom made them.â
âOh she's such a babe,â Caleb said as he reached out for the container, making Logan turn to him while Rogue made a face. âThe things Iâd do, seriously, the milf of myââ
He didnât get to finish his sentence when Logan grabbed his arm and slammed it to the counter while Rogue exclaimed âEw, Caleb!â and Scott tilted his head.
âLogan,â he said, his voice completely calm. âWeâre not slamming students to flat surfaces.â
Logan gritted his teeth, glaring at Caleb whose heartbeat got much faster, the unmistakable scent of fear lingering in the air.
âCaleb, right?â he growled. âListen Caleb, the next time I hear you talk about her, or even look at her in any way,â He unsheathed his claws, causing Caleb to let out a whine. âI will rip your fucking tongue out. Do you understand?â
Caleb nodded fervently again and Logan clenched his jaw, then pulled his hand back and Bobby grabbed Caleb by his shirt.
âItâs his first time in public, thatâs why he is like this,â he said helpfully, dragging him out of the kitchen. âYou fucking dumbassâŠ.â
âSure,â Scott said after a beat, turning to Logan. âThereâs nothing going on between you and her.â
Logan sipped his soda. âShut up.â
Scott held up his hands, mocking surrender.
âJust something to think about,â he said with a smirk. âIâm gonna go find Jean. Good night.â
âAnd Iâm gonna find Bobby and smack Caleb,â Rogue said, pushing herself off the counter. âGood night Logan.â
âGood night kid,â Logan said as they both left the kitchen and he narrowed his eyes at the container on the kitchen island before making his way to it. He grabbed a cookie to bite into it, his eyes closing as the sweetness crumbled inside his mouth, making him let out a breath.
A scene flashed before his eyes, something out of a dream; him in a cabin in the woods with her in his arms. He buried his nose into her neck, inhaling her sweet scent into his lungs as he pressed her warm body against his, her heartbeat getting faster before he forced himself to open his eyes again, taking a deep breath.
âKeep it together,â he muttered to himself and popped the rest of the cookie into his mouth, then pushed himself off the counter and made his way upstairs.
                                        *
Throughout the week, it was one mission after the other. He was beginning to think Charles was doing it on purpose, and when Friday finally arrived, as much as he hated to admit, he could barely focus on anything else.
âCome on, to the lake!â one of the boys said as he walked past them. âRalph, whereâs Theo?â
âProfessor X wanted to see him, and I think he left already,â he heard the boy say. âUgh, I was gonna show him this new fish in the lake! Itâs huge!â
 Left?
No, he was still around. Logan could hear his happy chatter with someone through the chatter of the crowd but her scent wasnât anywhere near so he followed Theoâs voice downstairs, stepping out of the building beforeâ
âHave a nice weekend Mr. Logan!â
Loganâs head whipped around as Theo waved at him, then looked up to the man beside him as he took off his backpack so that the man could take it from him. âUncle Jamie, this is Mr. Logan!â
What the fuck?
âWho the hell are you?â Logan asked the brunette, making him frown at the apparent hostility in his voice, but he didnât dwell on it.
âHello,â he said. âIâm Jamie. Iâm picking up the little guy today.â
âNo youâre not,â Logan scoffed. âDo we even know who you are?â
âYou donât, but the school does,â Jamie said after a beat. âI appreciate the caution but his mother called Professor Xavier beforehand to let him know, so itâs okay.â
âUncle Jamie, Mr. Logan helped mommy out with the car when it broke down, and he drove her home the other day, I heard mommy talk about it with auntie Julie!â
Jamie tilted his head, his eyes narrowing. ââŠHow helpful of him.â
âAnd Uncle Jamie is the hero who saved me when I was in mommyâs belly, Mr. Logan!â Theo introduced him, making Logan raise his brows.
âIs that right?â
âI was an intern, Theo was a premature birth.â
 âAnd you do years long follow up with all your patients or is this one a special case?â Logan asked as a dry smile twitched Jamieâs mouth before he clicked his tongue.
âIt is,â he said. âI could ask you the same question though. Do you drive every parent home, or is this one a special case?â
Okay no, he did not like this prick.
However, Theo was right there so he had to mind his language, for his sake.
âYou know what Theo, Iâm pretty sure I just heard your friends say they were going to the lake,â Logan said, making Theoâs eyes widen. âThey were talking about this huge fish. Do you want to go with Uncle Jamie or do you want to stick around a little to see that fish?â Â
Theo didnât even wait for Jamieâs answer as he darted for the yard, and Jamie gritted his teeth, shaking his head slightly.
âUnbelievableâŠâ he muttered. âAre you even a teacher here?â
âSometimes,â Logan said with a shrug of his shoulders and Jamie hummed, then took out his phone and touched the screen before taking it to his ear, waiting for the other line to pick up.
âHi Jamie!â
It was almost funny, how her soft voice managed to put Logan in a better mood instantly but he tried not to think about it.
âHi sunshine,â Jamie said, making Logan frown. âListen, Theo wants to hang out with his friends a little more. Should I wait orâŠ?â
âNo no, you go back to the hospital,â she said. âIâll leave in like an hour or so anyway. Itâs a good thing that heâs socializing so umâjust, let him.â
âYou sure?â
âOh yeah,â she said. âThank you again Jamie, really.â
âNo problem honey.â
âYou can follow the way back,â Logan said, nodding in the direction of the gates when Jamie hung up and he heaved a sigh.
âI know your type, you know?â
âI doubt it.â
âNo no, I do,â Jamie said, motioning at him. âThis whole tough guy bullshit isnât gonna impress her.â
A cocky smirk curled his lips. âWhat, are you threatened?â
Jamie scoffed a laugh.
âThatâs not what this is,â he said. âItâs just that Iâve known you for five minutes and I can already tell she deserves better than you.â
Thatâ
That was true actually. Even Logan knew that; hell, he had been trying to make himself understand that ever since he had met her, but no matter how much he tried, he just couldnât.
Knowing it wasnât enough to make him stop thinking about her.
âGuess you and I have one thing in common then,â Logan stated. âBut I seem to be making better progress in a month than you have in years, huh?â
Jamie shook his head.
âSee you around,â he said before he walked away and Logan took a deep breath, then ran a hand through his hair.
âAssholeâŠâ he muttered and made his way through the yard to keep an eye on Theo in case he got too close to the lake.
                                      *
The strange thing wasnât that he smelled her the minute she arrived.
It was what her scent did to him.
As soon as the familiar sweetness tickled his nostrils, his head snapped up and he looked around, then got up from the bench he was sitting on, painfully aware of his heartbeat getting faster. He strode through the yard, away from where Theo and his friends were running around and towards the gates, where her scent was stronger.
He couldnât help but notice she didnât smell like him.
Jamie.
He had no idea why he was getting so worked up on the existence of that asshole, but somehow that detail alone managed to soothe the hot jealousy running through his veins. He knew Jamie had a point, he had been saying the same thing to himself ever since he met her, yet it didnât meanâŠ
There she was.
He didnât know how she managed to look everyone and everything else in shadows where she herself was the only thing illuminated as if she had her own ray of sunlight falling over her. The mere sight of her was enough to make him stare at her as she waved at him, her heart pacing in her chest as soon as her eyes fell on him, the pleasant sound nearly deafening in his earsâ
No.
He had to focus.
Logan had seen wild animals in captivity before. How they would be straining at their leash, how they would be slamming against their cage, nearly blind with the desire to be let loose and lately, whenever she was around, she had the same effect on him.
âHey stranger!â she said with a bright smile as she reached him. âAre you okay? You seemâŠtense.â
Shit.
âMe?â Logan asked. âNah. Hi.â
Good string of sentences there.
âHi,â she said, looking up at him. âLook at that, youâre here.â
Logan pulled his brows together. âI live here.â
âNo no, I meantââ her heart skipped a beat, her eyes widening at the misunderstanding. âRight, of course you do. Itâs just that, when I dropped Theo off on Monday you werenât here, not that I noticedâdisclaimer, I definitely did notice in case it has escaped your noticeâbut you know, I figured you were busy, and then Theo saidâŠâ
Alright, why did he find this cute?
Since when did he find things cute?
âAnd he mustâve seen someoneâs suit or something because now he wants one, and I told him he can have one for Halloween but guess who didnât think that through, because now Iâll have to tell Julie, sheâs the arts and crafts person to go to in a situation like this. Iâm just going to bribe her with cookies which is everyoneâs favorite payment method I feel like âŠâ
Donât kiss her.
Do not kiss her.
A part of him wanted to go check with Charles to make sure he wasnât fucking with his mind, to make sure she wasnât a figment of his imagination because this wasnât normal. Having her within his reach, all he could think about was pulling her closer, kissing her and taking her to his bed upstairs, to taste her until the only thing left in her mind was his name, her body trembling, her soft voice hoarse while she begged forâ
âAnd Iâll stop talking now because youâre giving me that look again, do I have something on my face?â
Fuck.
She was looking up at him with a small frown pinching her brows together so he shook his head and said the first thing he could come up with:
âI tried the cookies.â
âŠYeah no, Charles had to be fucking with his mind to make him this tongue tied.
âDid you?â
âYeah.â
âDid you like it?â she asked, her heartbeat getting faster like she was nervous to hear the answer and Logan nodded his head.
âIt was amazing,â he said, making her let out a breath, a happy light shining in her eyes.
âReally?â
âIâm serious,â Logan said, âThe best cookie Iâve ever had in my life.â
âAw, thatâs wonderful!â she said, smiling wide. âI donât think Iâve met anyone who doesnât like chocolate chip cookies, so when Theo mentioned his friend I figuredâ do you know where he is by the way?â
He jerked his thumb over his shoulder.
âBy the lake with his friends,â he said. âCome on, Iâll take you.â
âFinally in the welcoming tour committee huh?â she joked as she started walking beside him and he chuckled.
âOnly for you.â
âMuch appreciated,â she said. âI was gonna come earlier actually but there was this thing at work, it was a disaster.â
âWhat happened?â
âWell, the grill stopped working around the lunch hour,â she said. âThey fixed it but waiting for food makes people very grumpy. There was this one customer, heâŠâ she made a face, making him frown.
âWhat?â
âHe was in a very bad mood but thankfully he calmed down when I gave him ice tea on the house.â
Logan shook his head slightly. âYou should stop being so nice to people, princess.â
That seemed to make her heart skip a beat, causing a small smile to curl his lips while her hand shot up to her mouth for her to bite at her nail.
âIn my defense, thatâs not being nice, thatâs just being in the service industry,â she mumbled. âGood thing it was fixed fast though.â
Logan hummed.
âSoâŠâ he trailed off. âUncle Jamie then?â
âOh, youâve met him?â
âI was around,â Logan lied through his teeth. âWhen he came here.â
âYeah, Theo adores him,â she said, nodding her head. âJamie saved his life when he was an internâfun fact, some doctors donât take you seriously when youâre pregnant at 18 and completely clueless, so I knew something was wrong but he was the only one who believed me. He got chewed out by his supervisor but he ended up saving Theoâs life.â
Logan frowned, distracted from the Jamie issue for a moment.
âHis father wasnât there?â
âNope,â she said with a bitter smile. âHe was uhâŠbusy.â
What the fuck?
âDo you know where he is now?â Logan asked, anger shooting through him and she let out a laugh.
 âHeâs in the past,â she said. âAnd he should stay there.â
 He wanted to insist, he really did. The guy sounded like the type of asshole who really needed to get his ass beaten, but before he could ask, she had already changed the subject.
âBut yeah, Jamie is amazing,â she said. âHeâs very protective, heâs like the brother I never had.â
He bit back the pleased smile threatening to pull at his lips at the second part of that sentence and hummed.
âYeah?â he said. âDoes he know that?â
âHm?â
âThat heâs the brother you never had?â
She blinked up at him in confusion, her brows pinching together before a look of realization downed on her beautiful face, her heartbeat getting faster.
âHe does,â she said, nodding her head. âSo does his boyfriend.â
âŠAh.
He had misunderstood the situation.
That had to be what Jamie meant when he had said âThatâs not what this is,â he wasnât trying to get with her, he was genuinely cautious about strangers such as himself. That whole exchange made sense now, considering the story about him saving Theoâs life; he had met her when she was alone, and had been trying to keep her and Theo safe ever since.
Of course.
âAnd heâs in a very happy relationship with him,â she added. âUnlikeâyou know, unlike me whoâs not in a relationship at all, totally single. Not that you asked but itâs likeâŠitâs like general trivia about me, andâwhoa, today is a hot day isnât it? Because honestly, it wasnât this hot when I left the carââ
âMom!â
âOh thank God,â she muttered as she turned her head to look at Theo who was running at full speed to them and Logan bit back his grin as Theo reached them and flung himself into her arms.
âI missed you bean!â she said, hugging him tight and kissing the top of his hair. âDid you have fun?â
âYeah!â Theo said, his glasses slipping as he nodded fervently and she pushed them up again with a fond look on her face. The sight sent a warmth through Loganâs chest, a smile he didnât even notice curling his lips. âWe saw a big fish!â
âReally?â she gasped, her whole attention on him, hanging onto every word he said. âHow big was it?â
âThis big!â Theo spread his arms as wide as he could, making her smile widen.
âWhoa, that sounds big!â she said. âWhat color was it?â
She was too good at this. Even an outsider could see how excited Theo was to tell her everything, how genuinely happy he was to have her there and how attentive she was with him.
âGray,â Theo answered. âMom, maybe itâll grow up to be a shark!â
Logan tilted his head and she exchanged glances with him as if telling him not to tell Theo it would not in fact grow up to be a shark, and Logan winked at her, making her giggle.
âMaybe,â she said, turning to Theo. âReady to go?â
âYeah,â Theo said and she fixed his shirt, then took his backpack from him to swing it over her shoulder.
âSay goodbye to Logan.â
âGoodbye Mr. Logan!â
Logan ruffled his hair. âHave a great weekend bub.â
âIâll see you around?â she asked and Logan couldnât help but stare at her beautiful face before reminding himself to pull himself together.
âYeah,â he said, trying to focus. âDonât be too nice to people until then.â
Her smile widened and she heaved a sigh, shrugging her shoulders nonchalantly.
âDonât be too mean to people until then,â she replied and took Theoâs hand, walking away with him. He could hear her asking what else he had seen in the lake and Theo listing every single fish he had seen so he watched them until they were out of his line of sight, then let out a breath.
âFuckâŠâ he muttered, frowning to himself. âSheâs beautiful, got it. Get your shit together.â
A chapter from Logan's POV - sign me up baby! You seriously know how to spoil us. A fantastic chapter, but no surprise there as everything you write is amazing.
"Even now, having just returned from the latest mission Charles had sent him on, he couldnât help but feel like a caged animal, desperate to get out."
The allusions you make to Logan's animalistic nature have me weak at the knees. Before this chapter we had only seen things through Sunshine's eyes and currently Sunshine sees Logan as this cool and calm individual, confident and always in control, completely different to her rambling self. It's nice to see that perhaps Logan isn't as cool as he seems to be and that maybe he struggles to act normal around Sunshine too - which is more than evidenced in his reaction to Sunshine being called a MILF.
âOh sheâs such a babe...the things Iâd do, seriously, the milf of myââ
He didnât get to finish his sentence when Logan grabbed his arm and slammed it to the counter...
âCaleb, right?â he growled. âListen Caleb, the next time I hear you talk about her, or even look at her in any way,â He unsheathed his claws, causing Caleb to let out a whine. âI will rip your fucking tongue out. Do you understand?â
He's this protective already! Glob only knows what he's going to be like once they start dating!
I'm guess it's probably not the first time Sunshine has been called a MILF. Creeps have probably even called her it to her face, perhaps even in front of oblivious Theo if they're being extra gross; so if she was to know how Logan defended her and stopped her from being objectified, I think she would be overwhelmed. Any and everytime Logan defends her I think Sunshine will shower him with affection afterwards (not that he wouldn't be constantly showered in affection anyway).
Afterwards the incident in the kitchen, I imagine a shaken Caleb warned his friends never to refer to Theo's mum as a MILF or sexualise her in any other way in front of Wolverine, not if they valued their lives.
Yes! Logan has finally met Uncle Jamie!
Was it Uncle Jamie that gave Sunshine her nickname?
I loved the fact that Jamie isn't scared of Logan at all. I mean there is this big, rough-looking man who he knows is a superhero, who is basically telling him to f***k off and Jamie doesn't even flinch. The man has balls of steel or really cares about Sunshine and Theo...or both, definitely both.
Jamie must be hyperaware of Sunshine's vulnerability - a beautiful, young single mum - and after hearing that Logan gave Sunshine a lift home is probably worried that Logan is one of those creeps who like to take advantage. Although after meeting him he probably already knows Logan isn't like that. Doesnât stop him from complaining to his boyfriend about Logan. When Logan muttered "asshole" when Jamie walked away, I think Jamie said that same thing when he walked away from Logan.
"Who the hell are you?â Logan asked the brunette, making him frown at the apparent hostility in his voice, but he didnât dwell on it.
âHello,â he said. âIâm Jamie. Iâm picking up the little guy today.â
âNo youâre not,â Logan scoffed. âDo we even know who you are?"
ProtectiveLoganProtectiveLoganProtectiveLogan. Oh what will he be like if he was to ever meet Theo's dad. I can't imagine it going well for that spermdonor. Just like Logan I'm so curious about Theo's dad. Will he make an appearance or will we just hear about him...or is it going to be a surprise? I'm so excited.
"The strange thing wasnât that he smelled her the minute she arrived.
It was what her scent did to him.
As soon as the familiar sweetness tickled his nostrils, his head snapped up and he looked around...painfully aware of his heartbeat getting faster...
...There she was.
He didnât know how she managed to look everyone and everything else in shadows where she herself was the only thing illuminated as if she had her own ray of sunlight falling over her..."
Are you trying to kill me?! His own heart speeds up whenever he sees her. He is so whipped for her already and it's wonderful.
"...Logan had seen wild animals in captivity before. How they would be straining at their leash, how they would be slamming against their cage, nearly blind with the desire to be let loose and lately, whenever she was around, she had the same effect on him.
If only Sunshine knew how difficult it is for Logan to keep control around her and how this desire he has for her just keeps building up inside of him. He wants her, everything about her, and he wants to be hers too. He really is struggling to hold himself back, from stopping himself from bringing her into his arms and showing her the affect she has on him. Again, I love how you compared Logan to an animal; again, I love how you are trying to kill me here.
âUnlikeâyou know, unlike me whoâs not in a relationship at all, totally single. Not that you asked but itâs likeâŠitâs like general trivia about me, andâwhoa, today is a hot day isnât it? Because honestly, it wasnât this hot when I left the carââ
That's our Sunshine. Isn't she subtle. And Theo also let it slip to Logan that Sunshine had told her friend about him. I imagine that he will be grinning ear to ear when he realises what Theo said.
Oh sweetie, I am simply obsessed with this series. I love every instalment and the headcanons everyone is sharing.
Rachel honeeeey! đ±đ I'M SO GONNA FANGIRL OVER YOU UNDER THE CUT-
The allusions you make to Logan's animalistic nature have me weak at the knees. Your wonderful comments have me weak at the knees darlingđ
Before this chapter we had only seen things through Sunshine's eyes and currently Sunshine sees Logan as this cool and calm individual, confident and always in control, completely different to her rambling self. Exactly! And like, I think that's why we needed a Logan chapter because Sunshine is so sure that she's the only one with a crush, that she's not Logan's type while Logan is like TRYING TO CONTROL HIMSELF SO BADLYđ
Oh Logan will be insanely protective once he and Sunshine get together đ And I agree, that's definitely not the first time someone called her a MILF đ
Any and everytime Logan defends her I think Sunshine will shower him with affection afterwards (not that he wouldn't be constantly showered in affection anyway). And he will meltttttđ
I think it was Jamie but Julie started using it a lot tooâ€ïž
I mean there is this big, rough-looking man who he knows is a superhero, who is basically telling him to f***k off and Jamie doesn't even flinch. Oh Jamie is fully in big brother mode â€ïž And I feel like overall he's a very confident person, so Logan's bs doesn't really affect him the way it affects others, especially when it's about Sunshine đ
Doesnât stop him from complaining to his boyfriend about Logan. When Logan muttered "asshole" when Jamie walked away, I think Jamie said that same thing when he walked away from Logan. Jamie will hate Logan's guts for a whileđ
Loll we will definitely see Theo's father, he will show up and...ooooh the level of protectiveness Logan will be like...đ
That will be a fun chapter! â€ïž
If only Sunshine knew how difficult it is for Logan to keep control around her and how this desire he has for her just keeps building up inside of him. He wants her, everything about her, and he wants to be hers too. He really is struggling to hold himself back, from stopping himself from bringing her into his arms and showing her the affect she has on him. He does, he really does! â€ïž Like, that's also why he was at first giving Sunshine very short answers, he was trying to keep himself under control while Sunshine was like "Oh I'm just not his type" đ
Sunshine being subtle đ She was like two seconds away from yelling "I DO NOT HAVE A BF" đ
DARLIIIING THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH FOR THIS! â€ïž You're absolutely amazing, ILY AND YOUR ANALYSES!â€ïž
ââI would like to have done it on the Stone Table itself,â said the Witch. âThat is the proper place. That is where it has always been done before.ââ - in which Caspian learns about the Deep Magic and its hunger.
Here, cupped in the hushed earth, is the secret arterial chamber in the heart of Narnia.
In the short frantic months of his rebellion against his uncle, when every day passed through him as swiftly as panted breath, Caspian walked it more times than he could recall. All through the hot blur of war, the Table hunched in the centre of that chamber like a slumbering beast, whose dreams were long, cold and deep as the bed of the ocean.
The banners of victory whip in a bright wind outside the How. The horses are being saddled and the troops lined up for the merry march to Caspianâs own coronation in a castle far from here. Now, come to this chamber for the final time, Caspian realises that he has never before stood in it alone.
The walls of sweating stone have a clammy glisten, gripped in a perpetual fever. In that empty room, blank ancient eyes seem to rest on him like fingertips. The chamber is a living thing, and Caspian can hear the heaving depth of each slow, loamy breath.
At the centre, the Table stands in the animal shiver of the firelight. The torches shy from the shadowed runes which even flames are afraid to touch.
Magic is not good or evil, my prince, Doctor Cornelius had told him once. It is only hungry.
If it is true, Caspian stands now in the mouth of a Magic so ravenous that the Lion himself could do nothing but feed it.
âThere you are.â
Shock pinches his chest sharply and he turns to see Lucy standing in the cavern entrance. She has brought the sunlight in with her, clinging to her hair and cheeks and eyelashes like a sheen of oil, its secret gleam, its uncertain shimmer over her childish face. She smiles, and her eyes are a blue so bright she might have stolen it from the noon sky.
âWeâre nearly ready to leave, you know,â she tells him.
âIt did not seem right to depart without coming toâŠâ
He trails off, gesturing loosely at the Table. Lucy walks around it, and her small hand drifts softly over its surface of weathered flinty grey. Something with a cruel copper glint runs down her little fingers. The moment he blinks, they are clean again. Perhaps it was only a trick of the ruddy firelight.
âDoctor Cornelius told me it was here they used to come. Traitors, transgressors. To pay their debt of blood to the Deep Magic, until the Lion broke it.â
Lucyâs shadow has not followed her around the room. It stands pinned on the eastern wall, much taller than she, the regal dusty silhouette of something not quite a woman, with long wild hair and long fingers. The thought hits him like an arrow: the Table has four sacred sides.
With a casual ease he cannot imagine daring, Lucy hoists herself up to sit on the Tableâs edge. In the shade of her skirts, the runes twitch. At the corner of his eye, they glimmer, twisting like the quicksilver surface of a river.
âThey-they are moving -â
âNo,â she says. Something more catches behind her teeth.
âThey are!â
âTheyâd like to. Thatâs why theyâre carved in stone. To make them stay put.â
âWhat do they say?â he asks, hesitant. âDo you know?â
Lucy grins a hidden foxâs grin.
âWould you like to hear it?â
âI would be honoured,â he tells her, with trembling eagerness.
Hi! I saw that you had Daryl on that list of yours! Have you by any chance heard of BakedCrispss??? Maybe you could do an imagine or headcanons based on her like little quotes?? I think it could be so funny!!! Maybe you could slot this in that window in alexandria of golden time??? Like when everything is calm before shit hits the fan and carl runs away and they meet Negan if you know what I mean??? I havent gone to the season Negan is in because I dont wanna *see you know what*
I do know @bakedcrispss, I follow them on my own blog, they are absolutely hilarious and I sincerely recommend anyone who hasn't checked them out but is into The Walking Dead check em out. Absolutely hysterical. There's so many funny quotes to choose from but I decided to choose this one. I'm not entirely sure how to source things but here is a link to their blog and of course this quote comes from them.
daryl: [ hands y/n a water bottle ]
y/n, drinking: thanks, but what's it for?
daryl: i heard from tara that you get thirsty around me.
y/n: [ chokes on the water ]Â
 And yeah I know what time youâre talking about and I get not wanting to see *you know what* Itâs very sad but I do suggest you try and go past it, the series continues to be good. But if thatâs where you decide to end it, hopefully I can help pad out that little golden time with an imagine.

  Man, these beet root cookies were good, damn Carol knew how to bake and they were even pink and cute. Baking had never been your strong suit even before the world started eating itself. âYou got more than one?â Was whined.
  You looked over and smiled at Tara. âPerks of being one of the originals, extra cookies.â You teasingly sang, sticking the tip of your tongue out in glee of your cookie horde.
  âI'll trade you some oatmeal mix that Denise made?â She pitches and you wrinkle up your nose as your answer and she sighs as she plops down beside you. âI know.â She agrees with your wrinkled face.
  âTobin is drowning in these, he's the guy you should try and corner. Dude's getting nothing besides cookies and kisses.â You remark.
  âThe dream.â She sighs.
  âYou've got oatmeal and...â You struggle to think of a word, you can practically feel your brain strain. âOptimism.â You settle offering a smile, she barks out a small laugh and looks at you with a raised brow. âYou come up with something that starts with O.â You insist. âAlso you are optimistic, you came over here hoping to trade oatmeal for a full fledged cookie.â You pointed out.
  âI was hoping the love you have for me would get me a cookie.â She said looking at you with big eyes and you squint at her with yours. âYou know silence hurts.â She teases making you giggle a little and shake your head. âGuess I'm not your type though.â She dramatically sighs.
  âI don't even know my type, Tara.â You scoff.
  It was her turn to squint at you. âI think everyone knows your type.â
  âEnlighten me, maybe you'll get a cookie for it.â
  âBrown hair, blue eyes, kinda brooding, incredibly greasy, handles a crossbow--don't--do not give me that confused look.â She insisted at the end. âDaryl.â She said exasperated.
  âYeah, you don't get a cookie.â You brushed off trying to hide your face.
  âI most certainly do get a cookie, anyone here could get a cookie by answering that question.â
  âWe're friends and Daryl doesn't like me like that.â
  âOne, the question wasn't who likes you back it was who you like and commonly drool over and two, yes he does.â She scoffed at the end.
  âI don't drool!â You gasped hitting her shoulder.
  âRight, no drool cause you're too thirsty.â She teases back shoving her shoulder to yours.
  You roll your eyes. âYeah, I am thirsty, why don't you go get me a bottle of water to trade for a cookie?â You pitch trying to get off this subject and actually get some water, these cookies were great but a little dry.
  âFine.â She says getting up.
  âNo Dasani, get me the good stuff if you want an entire cookie.â You remind as she walks away.
  She waves you off as she keeps walking and you continue to munch on your tiny dragons hoard of cookies, an entire three of them, Carol was quiet these days but this amount of cookies? Definitely a sign of love. Daryl brought you stuff too, since the beginning he's always brought you stuff...you sigh as you think about him, about all the time you've spent together over what are years now, how much you've been through together, how much you've both changed for the better...could your relationship ever change? So much in your lives had changed and just the thought made your nerves seize with a horrific mixture of excitement and fear. Excitement because who doesn't wanna be with the person they love? At the idea of going to bed together and waking up to them and than the horrifying fear that the wrong words could cause him to pull away from you, that would be the worst, you didn't even wanna think about that, no, no, no-- âYou gonna take it or not?â
  You almost jumped out of your skin as you came back from your thoughts to face the man they'd been about. âWhat?â Was all you managed.
  âThe water.â He said squinting at you in confusion as he once again shook it this time closer to your face.
  âOh, thanks, but what's it for?â You asked as you took it and took a sip.
  âI heard from Tara you get thirsty 'round me.â You immediately choked out the water you were drinking. Fuck. Fuck. HE HEARD WHAT FROM TARA?! âWhoa, whoa you alrigh'?!â He asked patting your back until your coughing stopped and you nodded in his direction. âYou forget how'ta drink?â He teasingly scoffed.
  âYou leave me breathless.â You tease back as you try to get rid of the stinging in your throat with another sip of water.
  âStop.â He says as he sits down beside you and elbows you.
  It's the exact same action Tara had done not five minutes ago but it makes you warm when he does it, it fills your heart and rouses a giggle from you. âCookie?â You offer breaking it in half and offering it out to him.
  âThanks.â He says taking it from your hand and taking a bite.
  âHow many did you get? I got three, so far it seems to be a record and I appear to be the favourite.â You tease.
  âI had four.â
  âFuck.â
  He chuckles a little. âThis's the first one I've had.â He lets you know.
  âWhat're you throwing them away?â
  âCarl asked for 'em, somethin' 'bout a date or somethin' with Enid.â He shrugged.
  âAwe, Daryl that's cute.â You coo.
  âStopâ He scoffs but you see the smile playing at the corner of his lips.
  âPlaying match-maker is giving a new meaning to those wings on your back, Cupid.â You can't help yourself. He rolls his eyes and looks at you annoyed but his corners give him away, you know you've got the wiggle room to keep bugging him. âDon't worry, I won't tell anyone your secret day job.â Once again the tip of your tongue finds it's way out between your teeth in glee of your own teasing.
  If only you knew how far that smile got you, how that stupid cheeky smile of yours allowed you to tease him like no other. âSo...why're you thirsty 'round me?â
  You have to try with everything in your power not to cough up your cookie. âOh-I-uh-I-I was trading a cookie for water with Tara, these are great but a little dry, I didn't know she was gonna get you to bring it over.â You stumble out. Sure, that's convincing enough, as long as you don't look at Daryl you can't know that he doesn't buy a single word out of your mouth. Solid plan. âI actually think this means she forfeits her cookie since you brought it and not her.â You point out trying to get off the subject. âYou know she tried to trade that oatmeal mix Denise makes for one of these?â Even your laugh is a little tight.
  He knows something's up, you're a decent liar so what was that? That was horrible, he'd never seen you lie so bad. âYou think I bought one ounce of that bullshit?â He asked his face partially scrunching up in skepticism.
  âYeah I couldn't believe Tara thought I'd trade one of these for that oatmeal either. Real bullshit.â You avoid.
  It clearly doesn't work as the skepticism on his face doesn't change until he grumbles out something with a shrug and takes another bite of the half of cookie you've given him. âDenise's oatmeal mix ain't that bad, looks like dog shit but it ain't half bad.â He points out.
  âIt's not bad but is it worth a cookie?â You point right back.
  âNah.â He agrees. âWhy'd she wanna trade anyway? She not get one?â
  âTara got one, she's just jealous Carol loves me more and gave me three.â You say a little pridefully.
  He chuckles a little and shakes his head at your delight, if that's one thing he's always liked it's how happy the little things have always made you. Whether it's him bringing you back a pen that happened to be your favourite colour or Carol giving you a cookie more than everyone else it always made you smile and over the years some days it felt like the only good in the world came from that smile. Not that he'd ever breathe a word about that. No, he'd make an ass outta himself trying to phrase that. âYou gonna give it to her?â
  The only thing you were planning on giving Tara was a deck over the head for telling Daryl 'you get thirsty around him.' âMaybe.â You settle on.
  Things are quiet for a moment as you sit on the steps of your home, taking in the community that's around you, Daryl still feels out of place but having friends around helps him settle in enough to enjoy something as simple as this. âYou gonna tell me what she meant or am I gonna hav'ta out trade you with cookies?â He prods looking over at you.
  Fuck. âThat's cheating. That's abuse of power--no, no worse that is abuse of cookies.â You rush out shaking your head.
  An amused breath makes it way out of him. âSo you gonna or what?â
  âHow would Carol react if she knew you were using her cookies for evil?â You gasp.
  âProbably laugh.â
  Damn him, you know he's right, she'd probably arm him with more cookies. âIt's just a dumb pun. You and me work up a sweat when we go out hunting together that's all she meant. Just a stupid pun, you know her jokes aren't that great.â You bluff.
  That sounds like it makes sense but Daryl just doesn't buy the way you're selling this. âWhy didn'tcha just say that?â He asks confused. What the Hell was going on with this 'thirsty' shit?
  âI just realized it, it's such a bad joke it took me a minute.â Could you worm your way out of this? Maybe, there was a small light at the end of this tunnel that let you get through this without telling Daryl you were thirsting for him like a dehydrated fish. âI'm gonna go give her the cookie before she tries another terrible joke to get it.â The lights getting closer as you get up and he nods a little. âSee you tomorrow? See if you can teach me to ride your bike?â
  You don't want to give Daryl the idea you're running from him you just need to run away from this situation and it seems to work as he looks up at you and smiles a little. âI just got done tunin' it up and you wanna go and wreck it?â He teases.
  âWords hurt Daryl, I only fell off once.â You gasp putting your hand over your heart.
  âYeah, sure, tell that to the dents I hammered out.â He scoffs.
  âSee you tomorrow.â You brush off as you turn around.
  He grumbles under his breath but it's all lighthearted and you know it as you give a wave in his direction. He watches you leave and gives a small shake of his head, at least his bike is tuned up to run as good as it can so you're less likely to wipe out again. He finishes off the last bit of cookie before brushing off the crumbs on his pants. âHey, Daryl.â
  He looks over and gives a nod at Glenn who's also got a bottle of water and it gets him thinking again. âHey, Glenn lemme ask you somethin'.â
  âYeah, sure man, what's up?â He asks as he takes a sip of water.
  âDo I make you thirsty?â
  Glenn coughs up his water the same way you had. âWhat?!â It's partial shock but mostly laughter.
  âNe'er mind.â Daryl grumbles as he gets up. He doesn't need to feel stupid for not getting this 'thirsty' bullshit.
  âWait, wait, wait.â Glenn says getting ahold of himself and reaching out to him. âWhere'd you hear that phrase? I-I just need to be clued in.â He asks trying to keep his giggles in at Daryl using the word 'thirsty'. But God, that was funny.
  âTara said to get Y/N some water cause she gets thirsty 'round me, Y/N said it was just a bad joke, sure as Hell sounds like one.â Daryl explains bringing his thumb nail up to his mouth to chew on, something about this subject was starting to make him nervous.
  âOoooh.â Glenn nods as it all slides into place and again he has to desperately try not to laugh but a small chuckle makes it way out of him. âMan, Tara is dead.â He scoffs under his breath.
  âJust tell me what the Hell is means.â Daryl says letting his hand drop from his mouth.
  âIt's uh-it's slang.â Glenn tries to explain keeping his giggle fit at bay the best he can with a deep breath. âIt's when you find someone so hot they make you 'thirsty' like uh I'm thirsty for Maggie.â He explains as plainly as he can.
  The annoyance is clear on Daryl's face, that slang is fuckin' stupid as far as he's concerned. âWait.â He says as it dawns on him.
  âYeah.â Glenn confirms what Daryl's catching on too.
  âNah, that don't make sense.â Daryl denies.
  âIt makes sense dude.â Glenn scoffs. âYou two could die of thirst beside the ocean.â He teases.
  âShut up.â Daryl barks.
  Glenn knows Daryl's bark is worse than his bite when it comes to friends, the most danger he's in is being shoved. âYou asked to know.â He points out.
  âThat ain't how it is.â Daryl brushes off shaking his head.
  âYeah, sure. I'm gonna go quench my thirst and go see my wife.â Glenn nods with a wave as he starts to walk away. âI suggest you also quench your thirst.â He adds with a little too much glee for Daryl right now.
  If he had a water bottle right now he'd quench Glenn's thirst by pegging him with it. Quench his thirst--quench his thirst?! Dumb ass, no good, fucking bullshit. That's all that was. Didn't make any Goddamn sense, he refused to have it make sense. No, no, no, no, no way in Hell. He went for a walk to clear his head of this junk but no matter how much he walked his head just kept going back to it...there was just no way you had feelings like that for him...right? His pacing was stopped by a loud. âOw!â
  He looked over to see you and Tara who was rubbing her head. âYour girlfriend is a doctor, you'll be fine.â You scoffed before walking off.
  âY/N wait up! Don't be mad please, come on.â Tara said chasing after you
  'Man, Tara is dead.' Rang through his head...could it be true?

Prompt: Based on this video. I tried to make it as fluff as possible! Hope you enjoy it!
âI love you sooo much!â Y/N giggled with a huge smile. âYou should love me tooâ
âY/N I am your boss.â
âI know but we are getting married! Youâll be my husband!â
âWe are? Okay where are we going to get married?â
âWe are going to get married in the chapel!â
âAt the chapel I see.â
âYup.â
âI donât think Hotch will like the chapel that much,â Morgan interrupted, pressing his lips together so that he doesnât burst out laughing. The team had caught their unsub but unfortunately, Y/N broke her arm. Hotch had gone in the ambulance with her while the rest of the team stayed behind and cleaned up. Y/N was clearly out of it, giggling and smiling so much while Hotch was blushing slightly.
Y/N turns to Morgan with wide eyes and open mouth. âWhy not?â
âMorgan,â Hotch immediately said, glaring at Derek. He turns back to her and lets out a smile when she happily giggles.
âI think we should get marrriiiiieeeddd!â Y/N sings, and everyone bursts out into laughter as Hotch blushed with a smile. âWeâll be the cutest couple ever,â she continues, giggling with the team.
âI see.â
âAaron I love you. I love your smile. I love your eyes. I love your ass.â She blows him a kiss with a giddy smile, and JJ has to wipe the tears from her face.
âShe is so gonna regret this,â JJ whispered to Prentiss, who was recording the entire thing.
âThank you Y/N,â Hotch said, trying to regain some composure but Y/N was too adorable.
âYou are so adorable. Aaaarooooon I looooovvee yooouuuu soooooo muuuuchh.â She reaches out and grabs his face, her fingers stroking his chin and hair. Suddenly there are tears in her eyes and her lips pouted adorably.
âAaron I am scared.â
âItâs okay Y/N.â
âWhere are my clothes?â
âThere is nothing to be afraid of. You are in the hospital.â
âWHY AM I IN THE HOSPITAL?â
âYou broke your arm. Remember?â
âWHY DID I BREAK MY ARM? I CANâT SEE ANYTHING I AM SO DRIZZY.â
âDonât worry,â Hotch calmly said, holding her hand. âItâs the medication, just keep on squeezing my hand okay?â
âOkay Aaron. I love you,â she said with a dreamy smile.
âWhy donât you say it back?â Rossi teased the unit chief, who blushed at everyoneâs glee.
âEverything will fine okay?â Hotch said to Y/N, ignoring the cracking from his team.
âCoz we are going to get married tomorrow! At a chapel!â Y/N exclaimed, a dreamy smile still on her face. âIn Las Vegas!â
âOh really?â Everyone could tell that Rossi was really enjoying this. Who wasnât? It was sad that Garcia wasnât here to tease Y/N mercilessly.
âYes!â Y/N turned to him with a wide smile. âWe will be the cutest couple ever!â
âAre you still feeling dizzy?â Hotch tried to distract her, but now it seemed like nothing could stop her now.
âIâll be the most beautiful bride youâll ever see,â Y/N said. There was a sudden noise and Reid walked in to see Hotchâs blushing and embarrassed face the rest of the team biting their lips to hold in something. He saw JJ physically turned away, hanging on to Prentiss who was recording everything along with Morgan. The three of them had their shoulders shaking and wide smiles on their faces, while Rossi had a smirk directed at his boss.
âWhatâs going on?â he was super confused.
âMe and Aaron are going get married!â Y/N giggled at him, her eyes slightly glazed and a wide smile stretched across her ears. âIn Las Vegas! You will give me away coz youâre my brother!â
Spencer openly gaped at that while the rest except for Hotch and Y/N laughed out loud. âI am serious,â Y/N pouted. âJJ and Emily and Penelope will be my bridesmaids. Rossi will be the best man and Morgan will be the priest.â
âWhy am I the priest mama?â Morgan could barely talk through his laughter.
âCoz youâre an annnnngeeeel!â
JJ snorted loudly, and even Hotch couldnât hold in his laughter anymore. âAnd Jack will be the ring bearer and Henry will be the flower boy! Aaarooon youâll wear a red suit coz itâll bring out your ass!!â
âAnd what will you wear my dear?â Rossi sweetly asked her.
âA blue gown! With sparkles!â
A knock interrupts their light moment and a nurse walks in with a smile. âHowâs everything going on here?â
âAaron and I are going to get maaaaaarreeiiiidd!â Y/N sings with a bright smile to the nurse. The people burst into laughter again, and the nurse smileâs got bigger. âI see that the anesthesia is still doing its work,â she tells them. âItâll be not too long before she falls asleep,â and with that, she left the team again.
Y/N turns to Hotch with a soft look in her eyes. âWe are going to get marrieeed. And you will give me a blue ring okay?â
âOkay,â Hotch relents with a smile that is usually unseen.
âIt will be awesome. Youâll love it. Iâll loooove it,â She is now whispering, and it is clear that she is falling asleep.
âI will.â
âAaron I love yâŠ.â And with that Y/N goes to her dreamland, and the team excluding Hotch has to leave the room to not let their laughter wake her up.
But Hotch stays with a smile and continues to hold her hand. âAnd I love you too Y/N,â He whispers to her.

Pairing: Daryl Dixon x Reader (ft. Rick, Glenn, Maggie, and Hershel)
Content/Warnings: Fluff; angst
Words: 1251
A/N: Next up - Daryl Dixon, everyoneâs favorite redneck! This was from anon for 31. You will receive the same injuries as your soulmate (unless deadly).
When you were young, you had a lot of injuries. You were in the hospital a lot. Not because you were a daredevil, or because your parents harmed you, or even because you were particularly clumsy. It was because your soulmate seemed to live in some sort of hell. You constantly had bruises, cuts, and other nicks. It was fortunate the doctors had figured out a way to tell the difference between soulmate wounds and your own, otherwise your parents would have been hauled off long ago. You were always cautious, careful to not cause your soulmate any additional injuries. He had endured enough as it was.
When you were around eight, things grew steadily worse to the point that you were in and out of the hospital every other day. Whether your soulmate was the one who got the wounds or not, it didnât matter - you had to suffer through either way. Eventually, most of the savagery stopped, though you did always seem to be beaten up in some way or another, even when you were older.
Then the apocalypse started. People quickly realized that if their soulmate was bit, they wouldnât turn. That didnât mean they didnât get the wound. It made a lot of people grateful that lethal wounds could not be received by soulmates. It made a lot more wish they could be. By this point, you still hadnât met him - whoever he was - but considering you were still getting injuries you assumed he was still out there somewhere.
Summary: Daryl has gotten sick with fever, but he wonât admit it and slow down until he just canât keep going, passing out and ending up bedridden, haunted by nightmares and trapped in deliriums about his past abuse while the reader tries to take care of him.(Or: Me indulging in how much I want to take care of Daryl, comfort him, and protect him from everything.) Hurt/Comfort, Angst, FluffâŠjust my kind of things. Prison era.
Inspired by a request. Itâll be updated twice a week, next chapter coming on thursday.

âThisâs like the third time you sneeze in less than five minutes.â
Daryl ignored your remark, rolling his eyes as he kept skinning squirrels. You were helping him, not as skillful as him but definitely better than the first times you had tried back when he began to teach you. Another five minutes and Daryl cleared his throat and sneezed again. You arched an eyebrow at him and Daryl glared at you all grumpy.
âI told you already, I think you might be coming up with something,â you insisted. âYou have been like this since we went to that nursery to find stuff for Judith two days ago. You might be getting sick.â
It hadnât been a difficult run, the place had been empty of walkers, though it had been hard to walk through the place, seeing all the blood and abandoned stuff, no matter you needed it, trying not to wonder what had happened with the kids who had been thereâŠ
Daryl had seemed to notice your face and train on thoughts, and once he was sure there werenât walkers in, he had sent you out to keep watch and make sure nor people neither walkers were approaching while he went through the place, collecting everything that you needed for Judith.
Now you were wondering if there might not have been some kind of bug or virus living in the place too, because Daryl had begun coughing and sneezing yesterday, and today you could see him getting worse. You thought he might be coming up with a cold or flu, or anything like thatâŠbut of course, he wasnât going to admit it even if it was true.
âI donât get sick,â Daryl grumbled, sounding pretty much like a sick, stubborn kid who doesnât want to stop playing.
âEveryone gets sick sometimes. You should go talk to Hershel.â
âTold you Iâm fine!â He snapped and you rolled your eyes, shaking your head, but deciding to let it go. For now.
No warnings, just a little plot bunny I had hopping around.
GIF doesnât belong to me
âYouâre lucky, itâs just severely bruised.â Caitlyn delivers the news while squinting over the x-ray. âBut itâs gonna hurt for a while, the less you use it the better. The pointed look Caitlyn turned on Harry wasnât missed by anyone. Nor was the sour look he sent her in return.
âIâll be fine, Snow.â Harry began unwrapping the carefully dressed injury when Caitlyn slapped his uninjured wrist. âOw!â He reared back and the glare he sent her couldâve melted flesh from bone, but Caitlyn had faced worse things than the pissy scientist and she stared him down with what Cisco called her Mr. Hyde face. âYou were this close to fracturing it, donât make it any worse.â
Harryâs jaw set, but he didnât challenge her. Instead he turned his poisoned glare your way. âThis is all her fault.â He muttered peevishly.
âThe hell it was!â You exclaim for the umpteenth time, folding your arms across your chest. âAnd it wouldnât have happened if youâd announced your presence like a normal person instead of skulking around like a creeper.â
Youâd been up on a ladder putting training equipment away, in the process of loading a kettlebell up on a shelf when Harryâs gravelly bark startled you. Losing your balance, youâd lost your grip on the kettlebell and like an idiot, Harry reached out to catch it.
What you werenât aware of, was that Harry had entered the training room looking for Cisco but had gotten a bit...distracted when he found himself at eye level with your ass encased in 100% breathable cotton spandex. But he sure as hell wasnât going to admit to that.
âI did announce my presence, princess, youâre the one who wasnât practicing proper safety precautions.â He snarled.
âSays the man who reached for a falling kettlebell.â You rolled your eyes at his perceived stupidity.
âI was reaching out to grab you!â With every response, Harryâs voice grew progressively louder.
âWell, keep your mitts to yourself next time!â You hollered back with narrowed eyes.
âOh, donât flatter yourself-â,
You stood from your leaning position, intent on injuring his other hand, when Barry zipped between you both. âOk guys, to your corners.â
Harryâs mouth pursed and he could feel his blood pressure rise. He had meant to catch her when it looked like she was going to fall, so much for good intentions. âI have work I need to finish, what am I supposed to do with a busted hand?â
âUse your left?â Caitlyn suggested helpfully.
âA phrase heâs no doubt heard before.â It was out of your mouth before you could stop it and you almost hoped no one had heard you, but Ciscoâs sudden burst of laughter and Barryâs reddening face indicated they had.
Harry looked like he would cheerfully strangle you with his one working hand. âHilarious. Well, thatâs just great isnât it? So I just have to hope Zoom doesnât pull anything tonight? Or am I supposed to rely on you chuckleheads until I recover?â He waved his uninjured hand towards the group as a whole.
âEh, sorry homie,â Cisco responds, not sounding sorry in the least. âI have a dinner with my family tonight.â
âIâm meeting Jay for drinks.â Caitlyn inched backwards towards her jacket.
There was a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach. You turned towards Barry, who wouldnât meet your eyes. âUm, Iâve got a thing...at CCPD, with Patty, yeah.â He didnât even wait for a response before speeding out of the infirmary.
âWell thatâs just swell.â Harry growled
It was as if everyone else had developed speedster abilities. There one minute and gone the next. Well, you werenât staying either. Sliding your gaze back to Harry who was staring back at you with a sour expression, you sneered in response. âLater.â You replied shortly and made your way to leave.
âWait,â
Harryâs voice was heavy with reluctance and you seriously considered ignoring him.
âPlease,â
Without even looking you could tell his jaw was clenched and that one utterance was probably more painful for him than his injured hand. Against your better judgement, you stopped at the door and turned halfway back.
Harry looked like heâd just sucked a lemon. âI really do have something I need to finish and it requires more than two hands, so...â he gestured between the two of you with his uninjured hand, obviously hoping you would pick up on what he didnât want to say.
You merely raised your brows and remained silent.
He growled something under his breath but quickly spoke up. âWould you be willing to give me a hand?â
The last thing you wanted was to spend any time with him. Between his resemblance to Dr Wells, âThawneâ you corrected yourself mentally and his inherent prickly nature, he made you supremely uncomfortable. But you couldnât come up with a reason not to help without sounding like a complete bitch. Sighing in frustration, you stepped away from the door and waved towards him to indicate that you would follow him. âMake it quick.â
ââ-
âYou have no business wielding swords, your hands were meant for blunt objects.â Harry snipped as your hand slipped yet again.
You huffed an annoyed breath out through your nose and evil-eyed the mop haired genius as he pulled the sautering tool away from his latest piece of tech. âYouâre getting too close to my hand with that thing.â You accused, eyeing the smoking metal warily.
âMy hands are perfectly steady.â
âYour hand shook.â
âMy hands donât shake!â
âMaybe Cait should check you for early onset of Parkinsonâs!â
He grit his teeth. âIf they shake, itâs only because Iâm afraid you might drop another kettlebell on my hand.
Wouldnât mind dropping one on your head.â She murmured just loud enough for him to hear.
âHey, you volunteered for this!â
âEveryone else hightailing it out of here is not me volunteering!â
âWell itâs the least you can do for dropping a-a...!â
Kettlebell,â she supplied.
âKettlebell on my hand.â
âI said I was sorry.â
âSorry doesnât help us stop Zoom, does it?â
âOk, ok!â She held up her hands. Though it killed her inside, she would concede this one time. Picking up the tech again, she held it in place and waited for him to fix it.
He eyed her speculatively before sighing and returning to his work.
âDo you want your glasses?â She said lightly.
When he slammed the sauntering tool on the desk it startled her, making her drop the piece.
âDammit, Y/L/N! Does everything have to be an insult?â His frown deepened even as her eyes widened.
âThat wasnât an insult, I was genuinely offering to get your glasses.â
âHe shook his head and scoffed. âRight, you couldnât say anything genuinely polite or complimentary-â
She sat back and folded her arms. âYou have beautiful eyes.â
That stopped him mid rant.
âWhat?â
âYour eyes.â She said seriously. âTheyâre a beautiful blue.â
His mouth worked for a moment, but no sound came out.
âYou said I couldnât say anything complimentary and I just did. Please donât make me do it again, itâs making me just as uncomfortable as itâs making you.â
She watched as a flush crept up his neck and into his cheeks. He swallowed but still said nothing. Snorting at his silence, she picked up her pieces and held them together. âYou wanna finish this or what?â He looked at her and gave a slight nod, but she focused solely on holding her parts.
Did she really think that about him? The idea that she might made him a little nervous but he again attempted to finish his work. This time though, his hand did shake and the tool slipped landing right on her hand. With a gasp of pain, she pulled back.
âShit, I-Iâm sorry, I didnât mean-â
He stammered in horror as tears came to her eyes. She was looking at him like heâd just kicked a puppy. He reached for her with his good hand but she jerked away. Her chair scraping against the floor in her hurry.
âJust stay away from me.â
âYouâre hurt, will you just let me help take the pain away?â
The look in his eyes made her heart flip in her chest. That same intensity, just like his. Well, she wasnât falling for that again.
âWellsâ are only good for doling pain out, not taking it away.â She hissed. His eyes widened considerably at the venom in her voice. Still clutching her injured hand, she fled from the room.
âHe wasnât a Wells!â He hollered at her retreating figure uselessly.
Imagine getting hurt on a run and Daryl, who is in love with you, gets very protective and wants to see you to make sure youâre okay.

Daryl X Reader
Youâre sitting on a medical table as Siddiq checks you over, he having just finished bandaging your ribs.
âItâs not too tight, is it?â
You breathe in and then out, and shake your head. âNah. It feels good.â
âAnd howâs your head?â
âLike I banged it against a window a couple of times as my vehicle rolled.â You faintly chuckle and Siddiq grins as he pulls out a pen flashlight to check your pupil reaction.
Summary:Â Searching for years, Hallie Potter has finally found the one person sheâs been looking for.Â
Rick, Glenn, Daryl, and Michonne are tiredly working, stabbing walker after walker through a chain link fence where they all seem to have congregated. Carol and Maggie have all ready tried drawing the deadâs attention elsewhere so they didnât weigh down the one portion of the fence they seemed to be favoring, but it didnât seem to work for long. The dead ended up coming back to the fence line and pressing against it.
âWhy do they keep coming, man?â Glenn asks, grunting as he struggles to pull free his crowbar. âWeâve quieted the kids and the animals arenât making any noise.â
âDonât know, but if they keep cominâ,â Daryl mutters, âtheyâre gonna tear down the fence.â
âKeep workinâ,â Rick tells them. âTheyâll thin out.â
Demisexual âSo you mean a normal person?â Donât hate on things you donât understand.
Person: Whatâs demisexuality?
Demisexual: It means you donât get attracted to people unless thereâs an emotional bond.
Person: Oh, so like, a normal person?
Demisexual: Actually, no, although I can see how youâd think that. Most people donât have sex with people unless they have an emotional bond with them but thatâs not really to do with sexuality, thatâs just staying safe and having common sense.
âNormalâ people, although not intending to sleep with someone right away, still know, usually, whether they would be interested in doing that within a short amount of time, sometimes immediately. People come up to me and say âYouâre attractive, can I have your number?â after just seeing me from across a bar. Theyâve never spoken to me, donât know who I am but still found me attractive and are thus interested in getting to know me more to see if theyâd like to start a relationship.
Demisexuals donât experience that. We donât see underwear adverts and find the actors desirable. We donât look at someone from across a room and think âtheyâre hot, I wonder if theyâre singleâ. âSex sellsâ goes over our heads. Dating apps where you swipe pictures across the screen are useless. We literally donât get attracted to people that quickly.
Person: Oh, I see. So itâs not just being picky or abstaining from sex, itâs literal lack of attraction?
Demisexual: Yes, youâve got it.
Person: That must make dating difficult.
Demisexual: It does. Many of us are interested in dating but are limited to people we know emotionally. If someone asks for my number I then have to say to them âcan we be friends for roughly two to three years, by then I should know whether I find you physically attractive and if I do we can start datingâ. Itâs sad because I donât want to get peopleâs hopes up or seem like Iâm leading them on. But I literally do have to know them for a while before I can get attracted to them if I do at all. It also meant growing up was a strange experience because everyone would be pointing out attractive people on TV, in magazines and when walking down the street and I just didnât understand.
Person: Well thank you for taking the time to explain that to me. I understand now that there is a difference between abstaining from sex and actually lacking attraction.
Demisexual: No problem. Itâs nice to be accepted and understood.
Demisexuals, you are real and valid. Just because people donât understand what you go through that doesnât mean what you go through is fake. Pride is about respecting and celebrating all sexualities and their nuances.Â
You should also note that demisexuality is common among those on the autism spectrum. To deny demisexuality is not only illogical but itâs also ableism. Youâre erasing peopleâs symptoms because its convenient for you and because you donât understand them.Â
Demisexuals just want to chill and exist. They donât want fame and to be mollycoddled. They just want awareness and acceptance.Â
Letâs not hate on people just because we donât understand.Â
GOOD post OP. Iâve been wondering âis this meâ for some time and youâve hit several nails on the head, from the confusion/vague distress at being hit on by apparently-sincere complete strangers to the way people become attractive over months and years once you get to know them.
THE QUEST FOR COFFEE - (Part 2) E2 Harry Wells x Reader
Warnings: A couple of F-bombs
Part 1
They walked side by side down the pavement, his ambling stride easily keeping up with her annoyed stomp. He glanced at her from the corner of his eye. âYou know, you really shouldnât scowl, your face will freeze like that.â
The look she gave him was murderous. âMy face is the least frozen part of me, thanks to you.â
âI brought you your coat.â He said as if that was enough. He had to bite the inside of his cheek to keep from laughing as her scowl only deepened.
âOh yes, a coat over soaked clothing is real helpful.â She snapped.
He made a production of looking her over. âYou probably shouldâve changed.â
âSo you could go hide back in your lab? I donât think so, I worked hard to get you this far, Iâm not giving up now just because Iâm cold and miserable.â
He shook his head at her stubbornness. âA cup of hot coffee should warm you right up then.â
âI donât drink hot coffee.â
He turned to look at her as if sheâd just suggested they rob a bank. âOh of course, youâre one of those. Let me guess, frozen and full of sugar with whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles?â He rolled his eyes.
âIced peppermint mocha with double espresso. No whipped cream, I hate that canned stuff.â
âPeppermint mocha?â He made a face as if he just bit into a lemon. âThatâs not coffee, thatâs a dessert.
âOh, of course, youâre one of those.â She lowered her voice to a rasp in what he could only assume was supposed to be a parody of his own. âLet me guess, scalding hot dark roast as bitter and black as your heart?â She glanced his way with a knowing look.
âI do not sound like that.â
They reached the door of Jitters and he made to open it but she stood in front blocking him. âSo Iâm right?â She asked, looking entirely too self-satisfied for someone who was wearing wet clothes in freezing weather.
âNo.â He said as if she was completely off the mark.
She arched a brow at him but moved out of the way.
Striding up to the counter, she ordered her drink then turned expectantly towards him. âGo ahead black heart, Iâm buying remember.â
His mouth thinned at her comment, but he placed his order. âA large coffeeâŠâ
âCream and sugar?â The barista asked.
âBlackâ he muttered.
âAnd?â Y/L/N prodded.
He sighed. âExtra hot.â He didnât even have to look at her, he could sense the look on her face.
After paying she led them to a table. âLooks like I pegged you better than you pegged me.â She said cheerfully.
Harry choked on the first sip of his coffee. âWhat?!â He looked at her aghast.
âI said, I pegged yo-â
âShhhhh!â He shushed. âThis is a family friendly establishment.â
âWhatâd I say?â She looked at him in surprise.
âPegged is a euphemism.â He whispered as if she should know better.
âYeah, as in, I figured you out.â
âNoooo. As inâŠâ Harry stopped and made a vague hand gesture, a blush appeared across his cheeks. He took a sip of his coffee to cover it.
âAs in?â She waited.
âAs inâŠâ He floundered and made a few more gestures with his hands.
âIâm not following.â
âFucked!â He said in exasperation.
Several patrons turned in their direction and Harry reddened even more at his outburst.
âSorry, heâs got Touretteâs.â She apologized to the people who had turned to stare. One woman who was nearby with her child gave them a searing glare.
âWay to go Mr. Family-Friendly-Establishment.â She said laughingly.
âWell thatâs what it means on my Earthâ He attempted to defend himself.
She took the opportunity to antagonize him further. âYouâre looking a little hot under the collar, Harry. You can say the word without blushing, weâre both adults.â
He just muttered under his breath. Why did it feel like she always got the better of him verbally?
She leaned forward in a conspiring manner and whispered. âSo you thought I said that I fucked you better than you fucked me?â
He was positively beet red as he glared at her over his coffee and she couldnât resist one more jibe. She rubbed her hands in front of his face as though the heat were warming them. âI should be dry in no time.â
âAre you done?â He growled.
âNope, still wet.â She grinned.
âWith all this talk of fucking, I imagine you are.â Finally! His face took on a satisfied expression and he waited to see her blush for once.
He gave her a deadpan look, then stood up and walked away.
âHarry?â She called, but he ignored her. Walking up to the barista, Harry pulled out his wallet and said something she couldnât hear. After receiving a cup full of something hot, he walked back. âSave this for later.â He said as he moved the iced coffee away and replaced it with the steaming cup.
âApple Cider?â
âYou drink it back at the lab all the time.â
She looked him over appraisingly. âThanks. Maybe you peg-â
âDOOOONâT!â He interrupted.
She broke into giggles again and despite him himself, he chuckled along with her.
The sound of his laugh made her stop immediately and she looked at him in wonder. âHarry, you laughed, you just showed real human emotion!â
He snorted and shook his head. âDonât get used to it.â But he was still grinning behind his coffee cup.
â-
They stayed at Jitters for well over an hour and fell into a somewhat comfortable rhythm of conversation and pointed mockery. While Harry wouldnât come out and say it, he had actually enjoyed himself.
Upon stepping outside, she shuddered. âI canât wait to get into dry clothing.â
âYouâre probably going to catch pneumonia.â Harry remarked, blowing heat into his rapidly chilling fingers.
âWell, if I do. I know an excellent doctor.â She smiled at him.
âYou couldnât afford my services.â He retorted although he looked rather pleased at her comment.
âI meant Caitlyn.â She tossed back lightly.
He gave her a raised brow. âBrat.â
Nearing the lab door she spied the pile of snow he had dumped her in earlier. As he reached for the door, he suddenly felt her grab the back of his jacket and spin him around. Then with a hearty shove she sent him flying right into the drift. He yelled as the cold penetrated his clothes. âDAMMIT Y/L/N!â
She clutched her stomach laughing. âOh come on, you knew I wasnât going to let you off the hook for that.â
I think I broke my wrist.â He winced.
âRight, Iâm not falling for that.â She made to open the door.
âNo Y/L/N, Seriously.â He hissed in pain as he attempted to move his right arm.
Her look of mirth wavered.
âIâm not kidding.â He winced again and she moved towards him all uncertainty and concern.
âHarry, Iâm sorry, I-â her eyes widened as she caught the gleam in his eye too late.
âGotcha!â He yanked her extended hand with his left and she went down right next to him, face first.
He laughed triumphantly and using her back as leverage, managed to pull himself out of the drift. There was a very indignant noise coming from Y/L/N as doing so pushed her in deeper. Backing up, he observed his handiwork, and framed her behind with his fingers. âI wish you could see yourself, truly one of your better angles.â He chortled and pulled out his phone, snapping a picture. Finally after some muffled yelling coming from her, he relented and wrapped his hands around her hips and pulled. It took several tugs but he managed to get her unstuck from her freezing prison. She rounded on him and flung the snow sticking to her mittened hands at his face. âYou are a jackass!â
He brushed snow off the tip of her nose with his thumb and the thought came unbidden that she was really quite cute when she was mad.
She plucked her mittens off and tossed them at him. âIce for your broken wrist.â
âNot my fault youâre so trusting.â He said cockily.
Despite it not being the worst thing heâd said to her, she immediately stilled. There was a flicker of something in her expression but he couldnât read what it was.
âWhat? Why are you looking at me like that?
She avoided his eyes. âItâs nothing,â she made to turn around but he reached out for her arm.
âY/L/N?â
She hesitated then shook her head. âItâs just, Iâve been accused of that before, by Thawne.â That mistrustful look she got in her eye whenever she looked at him was back and for some reason, he felt his heart sink a bit. âAnyway, Iâm gonna go take a shower and get into some dry clothes. Thanks for the coffee, Harry.â
She pulled from his grasp and he let her go. âYou bought me coffee.â He said quietly, but she had already rushed back inside leaving him out in the cold.
